Then after that game seven, Marquis come in to you, he's like, you know I love you, dog. You know, it's all love. This was just playoffs.
Starting point is 00:01:53 This was just basketball. So listen to Point Game on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you. You get your podcasts. Most people out here think that taking care of one another is important. And most people would step up for a neighbor going through a tough time. Most people around here help out friends and family when they need it. But the funny thing is, most of us won't look for help when we need it. Talk to someone if you're struggling with mental health.
Starting point is 00:02:18 Because most people out here really care. Find more information at loveyourmindtay.org. That's loveyourmindtay.org. Brought to you by the Huntsman Mental Health Institute. and the ad council. Take this out, guys. What'd you got? A better turned $2,500
Starting point is 00:02:34 into $1.7 million today after the Spurs won game seven. The four-legged future to parlay placed in February 14th had already cashed on. The U.S. men's hockey team win gold. Michigan win the NCAA tournament. The NICS win the Eastern Conference. Now, the cash payout had he taken it early
Starting point is 00:02:56 with $612,000. But the better said, No, I'm gonna let it ride. Damn. Joe, what would you have done? Ocho, you bet $2,500. You got $6.12 if you take it right now. You're letting it ride or you're cashing out.
Starting point is 00:03:12 Ooh. I'm gonna let it ride. I'm gonna let a ride, because if I got enough, if I got enough to be able to bet like that, I might. He only bet $2,500. He only?
Starting point is 00:03:23 Everybody ain't got $2,500. Man, Ocho, stop. You don't dare will if somebody bet, they bet $2,000. Look at the odds. Oh, yeah. The hockey team had to win gold. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:03:32 Michigan had to win the tournament. The Knicks had to win the East and the Spurs and the Spurs had to win the Western Conference. So you take you taking it out? You pulling out? I ain't going to lie to y'all. Yes, so now, Joe? We already know Ocho ain't pulling out. He got eight kids.
Starting point is 00:03:48 Yeah, no, no, that man don't even pull out a parking spot. He's sitting there all day. Stop it. You don't know damn where Ocho ain't pulling out. You got to understand that. You know, all that was premeditated. This was a plan, but go ahead. Bro, listen, I ain't going to lie to y'all.
Starting point is 00:04:02 I'm going to keep it real. I'm probably going to take mine up. If I spend $2,500 and $1,500 and you can cash me out for $600,000 for $600,000, shh, man. What I'm being greedy for? What I'm being greedy for, fellas? You're right, Joe. You're right.
Starting point is 00:04:19 You're right. You're standing in there. Keep it 100. Hell, no. Joe, I got to say long and hard. Man, come on. they're telling you you you like Joe Joe you're gonna be sick
Starting point is 00:04:33 they win that game you took that you say man I left a hundred thousand a damn a million dollars on the table I paid $2,500 for the damn ticket and you mean telling me I get $600K I ain't gonna be that pissed off I'm ain't gonna lie to y'all see I ain't I ain't gonna be greedy
Starting point is 00:04:52 I'm gonna take what I'm gonna take what I can I know I know you're gonna take it because you pick the thunder so you got to take it I probably would have taken to now, not that I already picked the thunder. But here's the thing. You and I, we wouldn't have picked the thunder because we had already cashed the but already made the bet $2,500 that the Spurves was going to win. Hey, boy, listen.
Starting point is 00:05:13 What did you feel and say, Ocho? What you were going to do? I mean, I don't, I ain't got my betting slip on, but you know, you know, you know I've been betting to pay all these series, huh? You weren't, you right. You weren't. You didn't get, bet any, bet. No money.
Starting point is 00:05:26 I did. I'm, I'm going to show you my slip. Come on, man. Hey, Joe. Man, don't nobody wear no slip but grandmas, and I know you ain't got none. Right. I want me a cool $225 grand.
Starting point is 00:05:39 Did you really? Yeah. I bet not, wait, I'm not allowed to say that because I'm not, but yeah, yeah, I can't say the name. Okay, all right, all right. Say let. I can't mess up my bag, man. Okay, okay.
Starting point is 00:05:53 Nick Spurs, 1999 rematch. New York Knicks returned to the NBA finals for the first time since 1999. The San Antonio Spurs returned to the NBA finals for the first time since 2014. Get in price for the NBA finals. Game one is $2,021 in San Antonio.
Starting point is 00:06:10 Game two is $2,447. In game three at the Knicks is $4,201. That's the get-in price. That's the month. Yeah, that's in the rafters here. Game four, 3788. That's get in.
Starting point is 00:06:26 You up there. In game five, San Antonio is 3,070. In game six, in New York, it's 5,244. Hey, ain't this the World Cup rematch, too? Which was? The American, ain't this the Cup rematch? Then they played each other. Yeah, they played the NBA Cup.
Starting point is 00:06:48 The NBA Cup. Yes, yes, yes, yes. Hey, who won the NBA Cup? The Knicks. The Knicks. Okay. I think, you know what? They did win.
Starting point is 00:06:59 teams are better. The question is, the next bench is going to be called on, and they're going to need to come up. Because you see, you see the Spurs bench what they're capable of. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:07:15 Kelton Johnson, Carter Bryant, Dylan Harper, Cornyn. I think Cornynett will have a little easier time, probably dealing with Mitchell Robinson. You're going to have to keep him out of glass because Mitch is looking to get them second chance points. Yeah. But this is going to be a great defensive matchup
Starting point is 00:07:28 because we know OG can defend. We know our Michael Bridges can defend. Hart. So it's going to be, it's going to be, it's going to be some kind of fun. It's going to be a good one. It's going to be a good one, fellas. You got, you all know, y'all know Wembe keeping receipts now.
Starting point is 00:07:49 He was pissed off that Shay got the MVP. Absolutely. He was pissed off. So if you don't think he pissed off that the Knicks beat them in the NBA Cup and he's coming for revenge? I like it. They better be ready. I like it. I think the Knicks price,
Starting point is 00:08:06 its first time, an NBA playoff ticket has surpassed to get in price for a Super Bowl ticket, though, Joe. Yeah. Hey, the Knicks. Hey, this is the Nigs, nah. As a matter of fact, speaking of, y'all want to go to a game?
Starting point is 00:08:20 Yeah, no. No. Yeah, no. Hey, I tell you what, let the Cowboys make it. You go? You go? No, I'm going to say what to get in price
Starting point is 00:08:30 going to be. The Cowboys make it. I'm in there. You said, who make it? The Cowboys. What y'all are playing Madden? Oh, man. Come on, brus.
Starting point is 00:08:39 I'm just asking. I'm being realistic, Joe. We're being realistic. Joe, you're going to get out that cat of money? Oh, I know you're sitting in the Raptor, Joe. So you got to put you going on up. You're going to cut loose that money, Joe? I'm sitting in Jerry Jones suite.
Starting point is 00:08:55 Hey, Joe, you know Jerry? Well, what's up? What do you need? I don't need nothing. I'm just that if you know, Jerry. Yeah, that's alumni, man. You know, that's Arkansas alumni. Okay.
Starting point is 00:09:06 Oh, that's right. Jerry did go to Arkansas, huh? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Okay. Yeah, I'm going to be up there. With Jerry and Stephen Jones and all in, we're going to be up there. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. You're going to be in the box?
Starting point is 00:09:19 Yeah, oh, you can, you know you come hang out with us, I got you. Nah, man. It's all that walking to get in. It's hell. It's hell going to. them games. Hey, no, you good. Hey, Joe, we can put Uncle in the wheelchair. Uncle, we'll roll you in there.
Starting point is 00:09:35 Oh, man. At least get your boy a golf cart. I went to the, I went to the, uh, Cincinnati and the Rams Super Bowl. And so far? I did. How was that? It was good. I mean, I think Cincinnati might have had just as many fans as damn the Rams.
Starting point is 00:09:58 Hey, we travel good. We travel well now. They do. y'all do but man these prices man because you know why they do this Joe why the NFL found out what the what people will play it on the black market for tickets so they say if you will play that on the black market we might as you go and put the $4,000 $5,000 $7,000 on the ticket price
Starting point is 00:10:19 since you're going to pay them for it pay us for it and and it's the Knicks fellas it's the Knicks and the Spurs they're going to them New Yorkers they're paying it oh yeah hey only a select You can afford them coarse-sized seats in New York now. Uh-uh. The mere fact that it's costing $4,000 to get in, Ocho.
Starting point is 00:10:38 That's in the rafters. Yeah. That's just to get into the building. Well, you know what people are sacrificing to go to get that. Man, what? To be able to say they was in the building? Yes. This has been since what, 99.
Starting point is 00:10:57 Bro, that's 20, what, 27 years? Yeah, it's been a minute. It's been a minute, boy. People say, you know what? I might not never see this moment again. Hell no. Real talk. Hey, hey, against the alien, too?
Starting point is 00:11:15 It's gonna be nice. Hey, hey, who won to fight tonight? I ain't see. Yeah, you know, forward and foster fort at night. Oh, uh, uh, uh, forward to black dude. Yeah, little, little racial. Knocked them out. No?
Starting point is 00:11:31 I think so. I think I saw a fight with the guys. That might have been, was, what's the little guy? Teddy Atlas used to fight. Used to fight with Teddy Atlas training. Bradley. Was Bradley on the call? Nah.
Starting point is 00:11:46 That might have been somebody else then. Yeah, that might have been somebody else. Oh, okay, they say Foster 1. Okay. But a four did win, but it must have been another fight. Yeah. And it might have been old. 2,000, man.
Starting point is 00:12:01 Because somebody, oh, I sent you the thing. somebody paid a quarter of a million for two-quarter 50, uh, center court. And you know, when I think about it too, when you think about the next,
Starting point is 00:12:13 the next tickets being that expensive, you think Tracy Morgan and Spike Lee really got to pay full price or they already got their tickets a lot of it. They're seasoned ticket holders. Okay. So they don't pay that. Okay, okay.
Starting point is 00:12:24 So they might have to pay 25, let's just say for the sake of art and they play $2,500,000 a ticket. That's it? You think they're paying right now that's all they paying right now probably so you got to realize spike spike has been it's been a season i think spike said he's been a season it goes since 1970 jeez yeah but they paying big money for them playoff tickets on after after the season oh witt yeah but i but i'm
Starting point is 00:12:51 saying i'm saying they're not paying what oh no no no no no no no right so a subot i mean probably, I would say somewhere, maybe $7,500. I don't know about that one. Man, that's $7,500. Of course, that's cheap. But you got to realize, Ocho, Joe, they're season ticket holders. So let's just say for the season,
Starting point is 00:13:15 for the sake of argument, I wanted tickets, I got tickets at the 50-yard line in the, uh, in the court level. Yes, an NFL game.
Starting point is 00:13:27 Yeah. I get an opportunity, I get an opportunity to buy those tickets. Oh, you first? I get an opportunity to buy them. Yeah. Yes. And it's at market value too at that. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:13:40 So if the tickets are 7,500, so whatever the price of a court side ticket is. So they're not charging $25,000 for a court side ticket. Now, for a scalper, but you try to go to Stubhub and get one, that's what they're going to charge you, but you have to understand. But the problem is the NBA takes over all those seats. So even though you'll see, you get right a first refusal to it, but the NFL got it. I mean, the NBA has it.
Starting point is 00:14:12 Yeah. See, like those suites, if you have a suite in a stadium and the Subo is in that stadium, that's not your suite. No. You have to buy that suite at the price that the NFL is selling it for. So it might be a million, million, five, two million dollars. And it don't come with food. You got to pay for the food and the alcohol to come up in there, too.
Starting point is 00:14:32 And if I am mistaken, I think, After the regular season, I think you got to pay extra for them damn playoff tickets, though. Yeah, you do. Because the price goes up. But you get right of first refusal because those are your seats. Yeah, I get that. Oh, so you know how you're like, okay, get your playoff tickets. With your team going to the playoffs, they say get your playoff tickets.
Starting point is 00:14:53 You get the right because as a season ticket holder. Now, if you don't want them, guess what? Somebody else do. Yeah. You can jack them, jack them prices up for you. And a lot of times that's what people do. People will say, you know what? This will give me an opportunity to pay for my tickets all next year.
Starting point is 00:15:15 So yeah, I'll go here, I miss this game. Yeah. And you got, it's a lot of people who buy courtside tickets just to sell them throughout the regular season. Yes. And make more than what they've paid. Yeah. And pay for the season tickets next year.
Starting point is 00:15:28 Yeah. Yep. Because you get a couple of games. Guess what? If I get an opportunity to see LeBron, I get an opportunity to see Steph. You know, something like that, or the Celtics and the Lakers.
Starting point is 00:15:41 Yeah. Somebody going to pay top dollar for that. Because at the end of the day, that's what you want to see. Especially if you're a bad team. Everybody planning to see who come in the town. Right. I'm looking at Steph. I'm looking at LeBron.
Starting point is 00:15:53 I'm looking at Yonnas. Hey, you know, it's almost unfair, especially for the Knicks fans that have supported the team all season long. Now you come to the playoffs. and in a sense, you're almost pricing out the die hard,
Starting point is 00:16:07 Knicks fans that's been to support the team the entirety of the season. With the prices, it's that expensive. Man, they don't care of nothing about that. Yeah. Oh, Joe, you know how this works. I know how to benefit. How big, how to think about it.
Starting point is 00:16:22 All the, all them NFL sponsors, they get X amount of tickets. Yeah. So when you break it down, that's why Alex Gil told him, look here, man. This game right here, they're going to be 75,000 people in this stadium. Yes, sir.
Starting point is 00:16:39 35,000 or there, 25, 30,000 there's going to be drunk before kickoff. 25, 30,000 of hours going to be drunk before kickoff and the rest of corporate. So what are we talking about here? Yeah, I mean, you're not getting a home game like you would in Cincinnati, like you would in Dallas, like we would in Denver or Kansas City or Baltimore. That ain't how it is. Yeah. I mean, a lot of these teams, a lot of these,
Starting point is 00:17:06 oh, I like this team because I'm going to the Super Bowl. I got to root for somebody. That might not even be their team, Ocho and Joe. Oh, yeah. But I got to root for somebody. Yeah. Because who goes to the game and don't root for nobody? Man, I don't really care to.
Starting point is 00:17:21 Well, why are you going? Yeah, yeah, spending all that money for them tickets. And please. Yeah. But they have. They priced a lot of the, especially the Super Bowl. that's the biggest event. But Ocho, like I said,
Starting point is 00:17:36 you paying that money on the black market. The NFL said you playing it on the back market, you might well get it on the get. And you know exactly where your tickets are. You know, ain't no bulljive. Straight up. Yeah. Let's go Knicks.
Starting point is 00:17:54 Huh? That's what you got? You got the Knicks winning it? Hey, Nixon's six. I'm going to eat me a Twix. Huh? What are you talking about? Listen to me.
Starting point is 00:18:04 Listen to me. He feeling he feeling he feeling he feeling he feeling he feeling good now yeah look you already know it you already good now I seen the man on here 30 minutes before we pose to get on I said damn oh yeah hey I was right and early boy hey look like he was looking dead at the camera waiting for somebody to get on here yeah I was I was hey for a first game nix nix winning the first game anybody in the chat y'all y'all y'all bet listen to your boy now in san antonio man man And Knicks winning the first game. Nixon 6.
Starting point is 00:18:38 Huh? Eat your twit. All right. We're going to find out. We're going to find out. But if you want to go, hey, San Antonio hadn't been since 2014. The Knicks hadn't been in 27 years.
Starting point is 00:18:52 So hopefully you saved your money up and you get an opportunity to see your teams play. One hadn't played, hadn't played to the NBA finals in a quarter century. And the other hadn't been in a decade plus. So it should be a very interesting match. I think this is the best matchup they could have gotten. Yeah. And Wimby
Starting point is 00:19:08 is going to bring an international market in. Yeah. People like Wimby. Yeah. The Thunder people look at the Thunder, they're already over the Thunder. They about the shorter. They were cute and cuddly. Oh, yeah, the Thunder, yeah. They're like, no, we're tired of them. We tired of them already. Only one state, Joe, Oklahoma.
Starting point is 00:19:29 Watered the Thunder to the Week. Everybody else was going to go for the Spurs. And then you got that. that big market and then you got an alien. Yeah. Yeah. I want seven games. If we get us seven games.
Starting point is 00:19:42 Ooh. I don't think you're going to go seven. I'm going to keep it real. Yeah, I'm glad you said that, Joe. Say it with me, Joe. I'm not in favor of what you got going on. Oh, see. Hey, oh, if the Knicks win in six, we got to put a muzzle on this boy.
Starting point is 00:19:57 Nah, hey, I don't put a muzzle on his ass. Hey, Joe, you don't have to put a muzzle on me. Yeah, we do. Listen. I respect you. You play the game at the highest level. You should know this stuff. Unk, you know the game from 1920.
Starting point is 00:20:14 But the fact that I... Yeah, it didn't come to existence until 1947. Okay, my bad. But the fact that I've been right, the entirety of the playoffs, not just one game, not just two games, the entirety of the playoffs, means y'all need to listen to me. Well, pat yourself on the back.
Starting point is 00:20:30 What do you want from us? I don't want no pat on the back. I don't want no cookie. Okay. I just want you to respect my ball knowledge. All right. All right. They took them.
Starting point is 00:20:39 Hey, Joe, Ocho, they took them nuns to the O-KC. I told them to take them to them. Come on, man. They took them nuns, Joe. I told you. Hey. Hey, man. Let's give him, give them a prize, bro.
Starting point is 00:20:54 Give them a problem. They did a damn thing. They did that. They did that. I give them. According to athletic, Mitchell Robinson did not sustain his broken pinky in a game or in practice. At the follow-up question, Mike Brown about how Robinson actually got hurt,
Starting point is 00:21:09 Nick's media relations stepped in to say, we're not going to get into specifics. Shams reported on Friday that Robinson underwent a procedure to correct the broken right pinky and the hopes he'll be able to play in game one. Ocho? Yes, sir. As our resident freaky expert, what non-basketball injury related could Mitchell do it mess up his pinky? You know what? I'm not sure. I'm thinking of all the outdoor activities that you can do as a basketball player, just as a human in general, understanding the importance of the series you have coming up, probably a physical altercation of some sort. That's probably what it is. And whatever happened is going to come out at some point. As much as he likes to keep it quiet and want to keep it hushed, I'm sure you probably had a physical altercation, but there's nothing that you can do where you can actually break your people.
Starting point is 00:22:02 pinky and knee surgery. I don't think it was no physical altercation. I think he was probably doing something he knew he probably shouldn't have been doing. If it didn't happen, if it didn't happen doing like a basketball activity, maybe because they had so much time off, Ocho, he went and done a, some type of extravaganza or something. You know what I mean? It could have been involved in doing some type of water sport or something.
Starting point is 00:22:28 I'm just speculating. I'm speculating. I don't know. I told you what it was, Joe. What? It had to be a physical altercation. No. Yeah, he probably got a little fight or something.
Starting point is 00:22:38 No, to break your, to break your pinky. Yeah, it can get caught on something and you can break it. Yeah, fighting. No, he don't take me. I'm sorry, he don't take me for that, Ocho. Joe, and you know you can't, you can't judge a book by his coming. I get that. I get that, Ocho, but I'm saying I don't, I think he's probably doing something else.
Starting point is 00:23:00 All right. All right, when it come out, here we go again. Now, when it come out, now that man think he, hey, who do you think you are now? I'm just telling you, because you have to think of the things you can do to actually break your finger.
Starting point is 00:23:13 It's plenty of things you can do, Ocho, without it being a physical altercation. Ah, no, do you know how much force it has to be to break your pinky, to break any finger, to break anything in general? It ain't hard to break your pinky, Ojo. No.
Starting point is 00:23:28 All right. All right What you got, what do you think he was doing? I thought he broke it in the game or something I thought he broke it in practice That's what I thought In practice, I was like, well hell That's the only thing
Starting point is 00:23:46 Yeah, probably horsing around He's probably a horse around I don't know about fighting But he was probably horsing around Doing something he didn't supposed to be doing That's what I take That's what I think But hell, he's an energy and effort guy
Starting point is 00:24:01 Ain't like he giving them no damn 20 and 10. Hey, he's going to play now. He's a body. They just need it up. Tie up these two fingers right here and go to work. Good. The analytics people in every front office have Cameron Boozer as the number one player in the draft.
Starting point is 00:24:20 And he's expected to receive serious considerations for the number one or number two pick per draft express. Draft Express says Boozer is an analytics darling. If you talk about the analytics people in front offices who have a lot of influence these days, 100% of them have Cam Boozer at the top spot in their draft model. I think he's going to be a 20-10 guy from day one. And I think he's even going to run to potentially being an all-star as a rookie. Joe, do you like Boozer, DeBanza, Peterson for the number one overall pick?
Starting point is 00:24:54 I like, honestly, Uncle Ocho, I like. Pride is like love. You feel it in your heart.

Clearly, I was the idiot. Thank God he didn't listen to me, right? Listen to Hey Jonas on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcast, or wherever you get your podcasts.
Starting point is 00:25:56 On Humor Me with Robert Smygel and Friends, we help make you funnier on this episode. My guest's Bob Odenkirk and Kids in the Halls, Bruce McCullough, try and help the Kazoo Kid and Tayson Day be famous again. What if there's an alternate universe show where you guys are incredibly popular? Well, and they could travel up the land doing meet and greets. They're constantly needed at malls. Listen to Humor Me with Robert Smygling Friends on the IHard Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcast. What's up, fam? It's Isaiah Thomas. And I'm C.J. Toledano and our podcast Point Game is about defying the odds.
Starting point is 00:26:33 Like LeBron heading into the playoffs without Luca and Austin Reed. And finding ways to win no matter what. He's the smartest player to ever play the game. His IQ is at a level that we've never seen before. And he knows without Luca and Austin Reeves, I got to manipulate the game. We get a player's perspective on the challenges of the playoffs. I think Joker's going to be exhausted this series because when they don't have rules, in the lineup, he has to really guard guys like Nas Reid.
Starting point is 00:27:00 He has to guard Julius Randall. And then he has to give us everything he gives us on the night-to-night basis on offense. And when IT's friends stop by, like Quentin Richardson, we dive into some playoff history too. Steve Nash would get that thing. That man, hell get the flying. He running up the court, licking his fingers why he got the ball. Like, you go through a training camp with that, Isaiah. You figure it out real quick.
Starting point is 00:27:22 Get your ass up and down the court, and you're going to get the ball. So listen to Point Game on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Here's something that should not be as complicated as it is. Getting a racist statue removed. And here's something that should be a whole lot easier than it is. Getting a new one put up in its place. As long as there's a politics of race in America, there's going to be a politics of remembering the Civil War. To get to school, I had to go down Robert Lee Boulevard.
Starting point is 00:27:50 Get to the grocery store, I had to go down Jefferson Davis Parkway. If you're an historian and you leave out of it, half of what the history is, you're not doing your job. I'm Akila Hughes, and Rebel Spirit Season 2 goes deep on both of those things. The fights, the politics, the people who won, and my personal campaign to add something to the Kentucky State House that's actually worth the wall space. We are more than our bodies. We contain essence.
Starting point is 00:28:15 We contain spirit. How do you represent that? They are just fueling a fire that is really catching. You'll see what I mean. Listen to Rebel Spirit Season 2 on the Eye Heart radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. I like Booza. I like DeBonsa and I like Peterson.
Starting point is 00:28:36 But hell, if I'm the GM and I got my money on it, I'm taking A.J. first, bro. I'm sorry. At 6-9, the man led college basketball as a freshman. There's 25 points a game. He shot 52, I think it was 52, 51% from the field. Man, do you know how hard it is to score a damn 25 points a game in college? When they're running zones and triple and double-team. Bro, this man has an elite repertoire of offensive skills.
Starting point is 00:29:12 You know what I mean? I think he's only going to get better. I think when you drop him into the NBA next year or this upcoming season this summer when he gets drafted, he'll be a guy who'll probably come in as a rookie, Uncle Ocho, and average about 22 a game. Yeah, I think he's NBA ready right now. I like booze. I like the other kid from Kansas, but I...
Starting point is 00:29:36 Darren Peterson. But I like AJ better. Yeah, hey, damn, analytics, Joe. They're hello. That's what I'm talking about. They should have took over. Yeah. Turn on the film.
Starting point is 00:29:49 It shows you exactly what you're doing. getting one of the few players going that early de bonza you can put on any team and you get you're 20 yes sir based on the situation based on circumstance in facts ocho damn analytics man hey hey you you're talking about from footwork to making guys around you better i think he has all the tools to to be that guy and if you put him in washington and you got 80 and tray and him I definitely think DeBonza and Boozer
Starting point is 00:30:28 have NBA bodies right now yeah that means something um 20 and 10 could I see Boozer being a double double guy yeah yeah yeah but AJ DeBonza
Starting point is 00:30:45 looks special to me man tell my some damn analytics they didn't took over the damn game I'm serious man the eye test tells me from why watching this kid. I'm like, look, bro, what can he not do? He didn't face crazy. He didn't face crazy
Starting point is 00:31:04 doubling triple teams throughout the season. He's shown you the repertoire he has in this game. I think the only thing he has to do now is to want to be a pretty good defensive player to where he can be a two-way player. He would be great, bro. You put him in a situation where vets can really show him the ropes. Man, he's going to be amazing. The thing that I like about DeBonza, he wasn't playing along other side, other five stars. Right.
Starting point is 00:31:33 See, Boozer had other five stars played alongside him, so you couldn't give him just your undivided attention. Right. Because those other guys were pretty good players also. Absolutely. With AJ DeBonser, that was it.
Starting point is 00:31:44 I can focus all of this on you. And he's still able to get those numbers at the percentage in which he shot. And that's not a knock on carry. That's not, look, somebody got to go number one. Bro. But for me, I'm taking, I would, I would take, I would take AJ DeBonds as well.
Starting point is 00:32:00 Hold on. When you look at what AJ done, when you look at what AJ DeBasco has done, his freshman year, there's only been a handful of guys who you can even put in their sentence. And one up, and a couple of them is Kevin Durant and Michael Beasley. I'm talking about these dudes they freshman year were unbelievable. AJ fits right into that, bro. Yep. Hey, Joe.
Starting point is 00:32:26 What's up? Hey, what Beasley went to college? He went to Kansas State. He were cutting up, huh? Ooh. His first game, he had a 40-20. The first game. Hey, that boy was nasty in college, I ain't going to lie to you.
Starting point is 00:32:41 He was unbelievable. I seen him play on several occasions. I seen him play. I think they were playing against Kansas. I think the boy only had like four points in the first half because he was in foul trouble. Yeah. I think he had like 30.
Starting point is 00:32:56 for in the second half. Like I say he ain't in college bro, when you can score that ball like that in college, man, that let me know a lot. Yeah. Hmm. I mean, he was, didn't he win?
Starting point is 00:33:08 I think he won, uh, did he went player the year? What did he want? I think. Because, uh, he was in the draft with, uh,
Starting point is 00:33:19 Derek Rose. Yeah, he went first because Chicago. I believe in Chicago doesn't have that pick. I think Derek, uh, I think he goes first. You think B's to go first?
Starting point is 00:33:28 I do. I don't know, I know Dee Rose, his numbers wasn't Goddy like Beasley's were. Yeah. But you could tell, you could tell he was going to be something. But you're probably right. Chicago wasn't passing on a homegrown kid. Uh-huh. Just like, I don't care what you'd offer.
Starting point is 00:33:48 Cleveland's not giving up on LeBron James. No, sir. You're just not. No, sir. No, sir. You're not letting the hometown kid go, no matter who it is. If he in that draft and he's a top three top, he's taking them number one.
Starting point is 00:34:01 Yeah. So maybe if Washington had the number one pick that year, maybe they would take Beezer. Oh, they took Beazzo? Absolutely. Yeah. He's from the DMV? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:34:11 So damn looply. Yeah. Yeah. And boy got to it. Oh, man. He was phenomenal, man. You just got, I mean, Big 12 player, the NCAA rebounded champ.
Starting point is 00:34:28 He did everything. First team, All-American, Big 12 player a year, first team all-Big 12, even McDonald's All-American game MVP. Hey, hey, Joe, what happened while it was in the NBA? Yeah, he had a good career, huh? Yeah, I think, you know what I really think? I think because the game came so easy to be, you know, when you get to the pros, bro, you know, you're going to be tried and tested,
Starting point is 00:34:54 especially different situations you come into. You know, by him going to Miami. You know, I think he's even talked about it to where, you know, the situations he had with, with Pat Riley and Sposha, you know, some of the stuff he'd take back, you know, when you ain't really been challenged, Uncle Ocho as a kid, and then you come into the NBA of a men's league, it's some challenges you're going to be facing, bro. Yes.
Starting point is 00:35:25 I just think he just needed mentorship. Yeah. You never got that at any level. And the pros, bro, they're not babysitting you, bro. They're not, Ocho. They just not. Yeah. You know, in college, they're going to, hey, you got study hall.
Starting point is 00:35:45 You got a weight lifting. You got, you know, you got to come to practice. Yeah. We ain't doing none of that. Hell, no. Hey, hey, and when they... You got to grow up. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:35:54 And if they feel like they have to babysit your ass, it's going to get your ass up out of there. It's going to be short of there. They're going to get your ass up out of there. Because with that kind of scoring ability, I mean, he average 26, he average 26 and 12 as a freshman. 26 and 12. Let that sink in for a second.
Starting point is 00:36:15 26 and 12. He was third in the nation and scored, led the nation to rebounding. I'm trying to think. There ain't been a whole lot of guys that led the nation to scoring and rebound. I think Xavier McDaniel did it and Sal Thompson. And then you go into a situation like Miami where they already got deep. wage, you need, all these dudes.
Starting point is 00:36:36 Structure, he needed structure. He never had that growing up. Yeah. He had to be on adult before it was time, Ocho. And you, when you look, when you're talented, you get away with a lot of issue coming up. Yeah. Now, you used to getting away with stuff.
Starting point is 00:36:56 When there's somebody there to hold you accountable for that, how you're going to react, Ocho? Right. With all your life and then, you know, he's used to play in a certain way. He wants to get up and down. And they're like, nah, really kind of, you know.
Starting point is 00:37:15 I'm telling you. I just, I just wish he had somebody in his corner. That's what sometimes. Man, you know, everybody ain't going to be mature. Everybody is not going to be mature at 17, 18, and 19. They're not. I mean, some people,
Starting point is 00:37:33 it takes to the age of 23 or 25, 26. Some don't ever mature. Yeah. Still big ass kids at 30 plus. That's what he needed. He needed somebody in his corner. I mean, man, that was, hey, Joe, it sounds like the perfect situation to me. Well, the thing
Starting point is 00:37:53 is, Ocho. Because he having D-Wade there? That's a great mentor right there in itself. But what I'm saying is, the game was so easy for him that when you get to the pros, Ocho, you got dudes, bro, who got two, three kids or family. they playing hard as I don't know what I hear. You, you know what I mean? Like, I'm telling you, I'm telling you because I played against B's when he was in Miami.
Starting point is 00:38:16 We played against him in the playoff series. And I mean, I think it may have been his second year, but he could, they barely played him. Mm-hmm. They barely played him, bro. Damn. This is when I was here for the Hawks. We beat y'all, too, by the way.
Starting point is 00:38:32 Actually, that was a year, that was a year, D. Wade average 30 points a game, bro. I think he, uh, uh, did he win MVP that year? No. Do you wait, he never won MVP on? Mm-mm. I just think he led the league. The Nash won it? I think he was with the league.
Starting point is 00:38:52 He led the Hawks. So what year you got to the Hawks? I got there in 05. But I think this was, this was. So Nash wanted it in four and five, right? Yeah. And so Kobe won it in six. LeBron won it.
Starting point is 00:39:09 9, 10 Rose won at 11 LeBron won at 12, 13 This is like 09 I'm talking about though Oh 9 who won the MVP in 09 Oh 9 oh 9
Starting point is 00:39:23 No Lebron wanted in 910 So who wanted So who wanted it in between Hmm Because Nash won 5 Shit They say LeBron
Starting point is 00:39:40 Lebron Really Playing with the Cavs He won 7889. He won 0-8-8-9. No-8-09 NBA Most Valuable Player Award. LeBron? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:39:58 Who won it in between LeBron and Nash? I know Kobe won. It was 06, I think Kobe won. So you're saying, oh. Pride is like love. You feel it in your heart. I-R-Radio. Canada's number one streaming app for radio and podcasts.

Starting point is 00:40:39 We have some big news. What's the news, new? Huge news. We created our own podcast. called Hey Jonas. We invented a podcast? Well, we didn't invent it. We just contributed to a...
Starting point is 00:40:49 We're the first people to do podcasts. Pretty, yeah, pretty wide range of podcasts throughout there. But this one's extra special. So how did we actually come up with the name Hey Jonas, guys? I honestly don't remember. I think it was on a call about what we should call it. Well, we were thinking I'm originally calling it one of the early names of our band. Before Jonas Brothers was...
Starting point is 00:41:13 This is how you guys remember. going down. Yes. I have a very different memory of this. We were talking about a thing, a bit for the podcast, where people could call in and say, Hey, Jonas. And then I wrote down on my little notepad, Hey Jonas, and offered it up as a potential title for the podcast. But thanks for remembering that, guys. Listen to Hey Jonas on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcast. Just listen. We don't care where you hear it. On Humor Me with Robert Smygel and Friends, we help make you funnier on this episode. My guest's Bob Odin Kirk and Kids in the Hall.
Starting point is 00:41:44 Bruce McCoha try and help the Kazoo Kid and Tayan Day be famous again. What if there's an alternate universe show where you guys are incredibly popular? Well, and they could travel up the land doing meet and greets. They're constantly needed at malls. Listen to humor me with Robert Smygling Friends on the I-Hard Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. What's up, fam, this Isaiah Thomas. And I'm CJ Toledano, and our podcast Point Game is about defying the odds.
Starting point is 00:42:13 like LeBron heading into the playoffs without Luca and Austin Reed. And finding ways to win no matter what. He's the smartest player to ever play the game. His IQ is at a level that we've never seen before. And he knows without Luca and Austin Reeves, I got to manipulate the game. We get a player's perspective on the challenges of the playoffs. I think Joker's going to be exhausted this series
Starting point is 00:42:35 because when they don't have Rudy in the lineup, he has to really guard guys like Nas Reid. He has to guard Julius Randall. And then he has to give us every. everything he gives us on the night-to-night basis on offense. And when IT's friends stop by, like Quentin Richardson, we dive into some playoff history too. Steve Nash would get that thing.
Starting point is 00:42:52 That man, hell get the flying. He running up the court, licking his fingers why he got the ball. Like, you go through a training camp with that, Isaiah. You figure it out real quick. Get your ass up and down the court, and you're going to get the ball. So listen to Point Game on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Here's something that should not be as complicated as it is, getting a racist statue removed.
Starting point is 00:43:17 And here's something that should be a whole lot easier than it is. Getting a new one put up in its place. As long as there's a politics of race in America, there's going to be a politics of remembering the civil war. To get to school, I had to go down Robert Lee Boulevard. Get to the grocery store, I had to go down Jefferson Davis Parkway. If you're an historian and you leave out half of what the history is, you're not doing your job. I'm Akila Hughes. in Rebel Spirit Season 2 goes deep on both of those things.
Starting point is 00:43:43 The fights, the politics, the people who won, and my personal campaign to add something to the Kentucky State House that's actually worth the wall space. We are more than our bodies. We contain essence. We contain spirit. How do you represent that? They are just fueling a fire that is really catching. You'll see what I mean.
Starting point is 00:44:03 Listen to Rebel Spirit Season 2 on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Who wanted like seven? LeBron? Dirt. Okay. Dirt. There you go.
Starting point is 00:44:19 Dirt? Okay. Yeah, dirt. Damn. And then LeBron wanted after dirt, right? Yep. Back to back years. 2008.
Starting point is 00:44:33 It was Kobe. I thought Kobe wanted it in six. They say NBA MVP and two years. So Kobe wanted that. dirt. Yeah. Okay, okay. And then LeBron back to back years. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:44:52 Then Rose. Then Braun again. And then KD. Yeah. And then Steph back to back years. And then Russ. Damn. Then Hardin and then back to back years, Janis.
Starting point is 00:45:17 Yeah. I'm gonna stop playing. I ain't doing that with you no more, Joe. Go put that up, Joe. Put that up, Joe. That up, Joe. Put it up. Anisa, Marl, has 17 points and 14 rebounds for her fourth consecutive game with a double-double.
Starting point is 00:45:35 Double-double as the Connecticut Suns beat the Los Angeles Sparks 84-81. Marl leaves the WNBA with seven double doubles. Connecticut had lost three in a row all by double figures. Kelsey Plum, KP, I girl, missed her second consecutive game with an ankle injury. NECA, a boomer K. has 3,315 career rebounds to move into a tie with Tamika Ketchins for fifth on the WMBA career list. Look, I see Van Liff, she signed back with the Sons on the development team. Reading says she felt like that's the best place for her to develop.
Starting point is 00:46:18 I was surprised considering how well she played in the limited minutes. She's a bucket getter. Yeah. And the thing is, her office is going to be her defense. What are you saying? She can't go out. She ain't the best. She's not the best.
Starting point is 00:46:37 But, I mean, she'll bucket get her, man. That lefty? She is, bro. That's why I mean, bro, I feel like I'm playing pretty good attention to the women's game. You know, I've seen her play in the way she maneuves out there on the court. It's just hard to believe, bro, that it's hard for her to stick on a roster. Yes.
Starting point is 00:47:00 Damn. You got to be something we don't know. Hey. That's when you have a fan like that. We said the same thing about Cam Thomas. Man, go get Bucky, get 30, 40 parts of the game, and he can't stay there to Ness. He's there, Milwaukee for two weeks,
Starting point is 00:47:13 and now he's gone from there. So I don't know what I'm supposed to do with that, Joe. You think he pissed somebody off, huh, Joe? I don't know what he did. Cam Thomas. And he got to pick somebody off. I don't know, bro. But I think like his second game there, he won a game for him in Orlando.
Starting point is 00:47:29 Yeah. And then next thing you know, he ain't really playing no more. And then he gets cut. I really have. I honestly have no idea on that situation. But yeah, you're right. It's similar to that. But look, and what you call me been playing really well to Sparks,
Starting point is 00:47:49 but, you know, look, their best players down injured. It was going to be tough. Even though they did the sun. had lost, you know, three or four games in a row. Mm-hmm. Without your best players, it's going to be hard. They got all five starters within double figures. They got 12 from Aguma K.
Starting point is 00:48:05 They got Derricka Hambe, had 11. Erica Wheeler had 13. Atkins had 16. Burrow had 16. Cameron Brink had two. Kate Martin, two, Latson, the South Carolina game. You don't think, you think Cameron Brink she didn't really got over that, I think what she tore, ACL or something?
Starting point is 00:48:24 ACL. ACL. because she got skill. Yeah. She's slenderbilt. Yeah. Can shoot the three. Can rebound.
Starting point is 00:48:33 Got nice, solid pose move. I think it's going to take a while for her to get, um, get comfortable. Ain't a way at that skill level. She's supposed to be coming off the bench. But it is what it is until you prove they probably, I like it. I like it when a coach plays you based on your play.
Starting point is 00:48:51 Yeah. Not just where you was drafted at or, oh, you, I'm supposed to be this. And. and thrusting you into a position that you ain't ready for. Yeah, hell no. Yeah, I agree. They probably bring it along slow. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:49:06 Park guard, Haley Van Liff, inside development of a player contract with the Connecticut son and the moves two days after Van Liff was waived by the sun. Sources told ESPN that there were other opportunities available to Van Liff, but she felt standing Connecticut was the best fit for her immediate development and long-term goals. Under the new collective bargain agreement, each team can sign two players with fewer than four years of service
Starting point is 00:49:27 to a developmental roster spot. Anyone signed to these contracts can play a maximum of 12 games or as a season footprint increases 25% of regular season, whichever is greater. The annual play for a developmental base salary is equal to 750
Starting point is 00:49:43 multiplied by the number of weeks in the regular season. Players can also receive active game bonuses. Hmm. So she's going back to the Connecticut son. She's going back to the sun. She built a rock developmental
Starting point is 00:49:59 Right She can't play more than 12 games She can't She cannot Why Anyone signed to this type of contract Can play a maximum of 12 games Or as the season footprint
Starting point is 00:50:13 Increases 25% of the regular season Damn I don't understand that at all In neither one Man look Ocho they got guys Guys 10 11 years in the league going on on a practice squad.
Starting point is 00:50:30 Yeah. And you know, back practice squad used to be for like first, second, third, maybe a third year guy. Man, they got guys five, six, seven years on practice squad. Hey, hey, practice squad guys make good money. Yeah. Hell yeah. Between depending on the year, probably between
Starting point is 00:50:46 250 and 400,000. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. Good one. And all you got to do is just pay attention. Just pay attention. You go out there and make plays and, hey, you might get thrust up.
Starting point is 00:51:02 Somebody get hurt. You go down. You go in. Yeah. They sign you to the active roster. You got to be a real pro to do that, though. You do. It take a real professional because a lot of cats ain't built like that.
Starting point is 00:51:14 Y'all know, and I'm sure y'all seen a lot of cats who've been in certain situations. And hell, had they had some work ethic, you know, and their number was called, you know, they probably would have had a real chance. But, boy, you got to be a real pro to come to work. every day knowing, damn, I ain't playing. You're not getting in the game. You're not going to play on a sudden. You're not going to dress.
Starting point is 00:51:35 And when they leave, they're going to leave you. They go on the road. They're going to leave your ass on it. And for the most part, I don't know. Don't you do, practice squad guys. Because normally practice squad guys had to sit and stand. They weren't able to be on the sideline. No, when we played, they would always,
Starting point is 00:51:51 they would always dress out. Not they were just on the Bengals gear. Not actual, you know what I mean? They'd be on the sideline. I know. Okay. Oh, yeah, yeah. And they practice hard, though.
Starting point is 00:52:02 Oh, yeah. Some? Absolutely. Absolutely. That's how Rod Smith made it. Rod Smith was on the practice squad. Yeah. And then he became, yeah.
Starting point is 00:52:11 The greatest receiver in Broncos history. He worked his ass off. That's why I'm saying. Every day he got brother. That's what I'm saying. No matter what you, what you need him to do, he running out on special teams. Hey, he was returning punts,
Starting point is 00:52:24 catching ball, whatever you need, whatever you needed for us to do, he did it. Yeah. When he got his opportunity, see, I believe, I believe the number one killer of dreams is expectations. Ooh.
Starting point is 00:52:37 See, how many times on show, you see guys, we talk about this on show all the time. We see guys in practice, well, ain't nothing expected of them. Oh. Catching the ball like this here. You hear me?
Starting point is 00:52:48 Yeah. Doing everything, that same guy that made catches like, like, damn, getting the game, ball hitting them all in the back of his head. He can't get our friends.
Starting point is 00:53:00 Now, he don't cook every DB we got. The DB, he doesn't deed up all our best receivers. Yeah. Right there, back the ball down. Yeah. In the game, it don't know each. Hey, but practice in the game are two entirely different things. Hey, hey.
Starting point is 00:53:17 Different. No, they're not. Expectations are different between practice at the game. Right. You see in practice, bro, Ocho, this is what I'm doing. Hold on. All right. A, uh,
Starting point is 00:53:34 Johnson, this is you right here. Yeah. You got the 15 yard comeback. Yeah. A, A, uh, ISO, you're the tight end.
Starting point is 00:53:40 You got the over route. Okay? Yeah. Backside. Clear this thing out because we're going one, two, we're going to hit the back on the ring. All right,
Starting point is 00:53:48 ready, break. Now, that's what they do in practice. Yeah. Game time. All right. We go in red right. Uh,
Starting point is 00:53:57 no, we're going far double wing right. Mm. F short. X dig, let's go Z shake, Y choice. Ready? Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, I got 60,000 down my back down.
Starting point is 00:54:12 Hey, hold on, hey, everybody clap but him. You see the wheels spinning now. Ain't nobody holding up the car to tell you where you're going. Because they don't call no place, we just hold a sheet up. Yeah. That's you right there. You got to come back. You got the post.
Starting point is 00:54:31 You got to speed out. You got the dig. You got the over. Hey. Hey, y'all know. Y'all know in practice, it ain't no damn crowd. It's just us. And so you ain't got no reason to be nervous.
Starting point is 00:54:47 When you get your ass out there, it's 50, 60,000 people up there. Oh, yeah. That's a big difference. Oh, yeah. You drop the ball. Boo! I'm just telling you how that is, man. I've seen it.
Starting point is 00:55:02 I've seen guys. to be, Ocho, you just see it, gotta be bawling their ass off in practice. Yeah. Mm-hmm. Be getting the game. And then, guess what? Man, I read what?
Starting point is 00:55:15 Bro, you hot. I know you ran the route. You were supposed to run the route. You were supposed to run the hot route. So what? One came off your side. Did you not see, Ella, hold on.
Starting point is 00:55:29 Did you not see that safety cheat down? That told you the damn slot was coming. Why do you think the safety cheated down because he was coming to yeah so now what happened what happened what happened he didn't run a damn hot that's what happened hey you got the quarterback damn to decapitated that's what happened right hey them hoss did you joe well you got to be paying attention yes when that when that quarterback point that quarterback pointed at mike yeah and if anything come outside of that mic.
Starting point is 00:56:08 You're hot. They got an extra man coming. Boy, you better you be able to see it. You leave your quarterback hanging, boy. And you got to know, okay, we got an empty formation. All it takes is one.
Starting point is 00:56:21 If we got a back in the backfield, it takes two. Because guess what? We got five linemen and we got a back that can block six. If they bring seven, you got to run hot, dumb, dumb. Got two.
Starting point is 00:56:33 Mm-hmm, mm-mm. meaning they're bringing more than we can block. So somebody got to look so what? You want the quarterback to block it with his chest? He didn't see that in practice. Y'all ain't show him that one in practice. No, because guess what? If we holding that fire, ain't no hots on there.
Starting point is 00:56:52 Right, that's all I'm saying. But see, that's the thing. And the thing is, when quarterbacks get excited, they're going to start talking fast. So you really know what you got. My thing is I, you know what you got? No, not what I got, Sean. You got to come back.
Starting point is 00:57:13 Hey, if it's covered two, release outside and clear. Bro, what are you doing? Why would you release outside? Didn't I tell you if it's covered two, release outside and clear? Why the hell you go inside? The last thing we want to do, we got something coming that way. We don't want the damn cornerback looking inside to declate the tight end, which is me.
Starting point is 00:57:32 I'm going to snap the hell out of you when it comes to the sideline. And then the wire is he on the damn over. Damn it. We want you to make the cornerback turn his eyes to the damn plate. If you release inside, guess what he's doing? All he's doing is shoving you down inside and he's still looking inside. Hey, hey, hey, that's the same thing in basketball. Hey, coach will draw up two, three plays in the huddle, right?
Starting point is 00:57:58 Boom, he dropped two, three plays. We're going to run the first play, though, Arca Ocho. But just so happened, his first play worked. Now we're going to run it until they stop it. Yes. So let's say the first play worked three times. Okay, boom, they stop it. So next time we're running the second play.
Starting point is 00:58:12 You remember the second play? Damn, I don't remember the second play. What's the second play? What's the second play? You know you try to coach somebody through a whole play. I know exactly what you said. Yeah, that's how, Joe, that's how it is when we go no huddle. We got two plays.
Starting point is 00:58:27 First one on one, second one on set hut. We're going to line up in the same foot because we don't want to flip sides. Waste too much time. If we start in the right formation, we're going to stay in the right formation. Right. If we start in the left formation, we're going to stand a left formation. Only thing change, hey, we got two plays. First one on one, second one on set.
Starting point is 00:58:44 Okay, boom, go. Dumb, dumb, go round. Dumb, we told you both plays are in a right formation. You wasted too much time. You see guys running back and forth. No, they normally, most teams, they were always whatever formation they start in, A right formation, they'll stay on a right formation.
Starting point is 00:59:06 It takes too much time to be flip-flopping. Yeah. Because the last thing I want is Ocho to run a damn go route on the right side, and then all of a sudden we flip it, and he got a damn left formation. Now, he got to go all the way across there instead of running his ass back. Man, man, I got to get, bro, we're not going to get that back.
Starting point is 00:59:28 You're talking about, hey, my bad. Hot. That means you, you, you, don't run your normal route, get your head around. You know, me and John, like, hey, the guy coming down, look, first of all, if the guy's coming down, Ocho, why are you running full speed into him? Just take your time.
Starting point is 00:59:49 Yeah. Bubble a little bit so you can get a quarterback of throw. Yeah. If you running full speed at him, he running full speed at you. Guess what's going to happen? A headache. Yep. Head headache.
Starting point is 01:00:04 But see, you learned that. Hey. That chick you was talking to on the phone. She knows these plays. You about to be with her. And guess what? That chick that you're talking to that you think she really like you?
Starting point is 01:00:24 When you get cut, guess what? Another dude going to crack her. Hello. She ain't going to even look at it. She won't give two Fs about you. Understand how this game work, bro. Hello. They love what you do, not who you are.
Starting point is 01:00:41 soon as you realize that, the better off you're going to be. Get your ass on that playbook. You better learn to play it before they play you. Man, facts. But they stay on the phones, though, Ocho. Oh. Don't worry about it. Hey, man, who you're talking to?
Starting point is 01:01:00 Claire, you ain't say your mom. You ain't say your mom, but you ain't say nothing about that? Nope. Oh yeah. But you go out there and then you mess up a play. Because it walk through Joe, we go over the play. So all the plays that we're going to be putting in for today's practice, we go out there hitting the thing, boom, we go through walk through.
Starting point is 01:01:20 Yeah. So Mike expects you, they expect you to know the plays that you just went over. 30 minutes ago, all them plays, Mike expect you to know him. Now, you don't, he, Mike is looking at us crazy. He's looking at the veteran, like, 84, what's going on? Why? Damn, Mike, I mean, I'm struggling myself to learn these mofos. I can understand.
Starting point is 01:01:47 You know, hey, hey. I can't dime a man out with Mike. Every time we get a break, they run to the phone. Yeah. They run to their locker. Yeah. Bro. Oh, Joe.
Starting point is 01:02:00 Joe, if you call, if you get a call, where do they think you are? If you're on an NFL team, you're on an NBA team. I just want to know, between the hours, let's just stick with football, between the hours of nine and fourth. Well, special teams got to get there at eight. So between hours of 8 and 4.30, where do they think you are on a Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, we got till new? So between Wednesday and Thursday, I want you to tell me where do they think you are? Practice.
Starting point is 01:02:34 Work. Why is she calling you? You're like, I'm at practice. That was, excuse me, I never understood that. Back then there were no Uber drivers. You weren't driving a cab. The clubs weren't open so you weren't security. Where the hell do they think you were?
Starting point is 01:02:54 I just didn't get them guys. And guys, you know, cold you, I said, son, don't cut yourself. Let me do it. Right. I've seen more guys cut themselves in my 14 years because of that. I've seen it too. They run straight to the phone.
Starting point is 01:03:11 Yeah. Yeah. Half time. Hey, hey. I see you sleep. Don't worry about it. You sleep. I ain't got nothing for you.
Starting point is 01:03:29 I don't know, y'all talking about it in like film? In the meeting, yeah, in the meeting, yeah. Absolutely. Guys be out of there. Knock, knocked out. They've been out the night before, hey, Joe, they've been out the night before, out late. Hey, hey.
Starting point is 01:03:48 Bro, if I, hey, if I gotta stay my ass and meet, wake a meeting, now when I got to Baltimore, a, Wade Harmon with my position coach, You're like Big play going up out of here. You go ahead and go. I'm gone. Yeah. Be people.
Starting point is 01:04:02 I'm like, man, look here, man. I said, look, I'm going to sleep. I'm going to tell you beforehand, so don't call me. They ask me nothing. I'm going to sleep. I'm watching what you took. What you're short, I'm going to watch that.
Starting point is 01:04:12 But I knew, I knew my, I had to, I know it. But them young guys is not paying attention and bulljiving. Instead of like being in your playbook during lunch. Yeah. They want to shoot pool. Yeah. ping pong, wanna be on the poppy shot, be on the phone, okay.
Starting point is 01:04:34 Okay, but looking lost when this time, when, yeah, we're trying to dry run through these damn play. But guess, guess what, Joe? Every once in a while, some of I'm gonna still be there, they don't got released. Hey, Shaw, what's up? You know, hey, I'll let him come on,
Starting point is 01:04:50 hey, come on. Yeah, leave with me. Yeah, yeah. I feel bad for it. That really could have been you, you could have had a name. Yeah. And when you, hey, y'all know this, though.
Starting point is 01:05:03 When you turn pro, bro, like, your whole mentality has to change. It better. Like, but everybody don't, though. It doesn't. Everybody doesn't. Hey, listen, it's a lot of cats who am I seen come and go in the pros. And I'm talking about the NBA. I'm talking about what else for only two, three years.
Starting point is 01:05:22 And boom, it's a rap. To be able to have longevity, bro, you got to get lost in this thing. You hear me? I'm talking about you have to really love. what you're doing. Yeah. Not what the game brings to you, but you have to really love getting your ass up in the morning, putting in their work, putting in their work in the all season
Starting point is 01:05:41 and where you can continue to get better yearly. You know what I mean? It's not a lot of cats like that, bro. They're happy and satisfied just to get there. Cool, I'm cool. I made it. They love what the game allows them to have. I get to go to the club. I get to shine. I get a nice car. it's the grind. It's boring being a pro
Starting point is 01:06:03 because you do the same thing over and over. You watch tape, Ocho. You watch, hey, Mike, the head coach going to get up there and tell you what the thing is for the day. You're going to break up offense. You're going to install. Then you're going to break up in a unit.
Starting point is 01:06:15 Tighten to go one room, running back, go to another room. Y, receive, O-line, boom, boom. Guess what? Then we're on the field for walkthrough. Yeah. Hour for lunch. Then we're out of practicing.
Starting point is 01:06:25 Then we come back and we're going to break down, we're going to watch tape. That's it. Every day. Every day. Every single day. You got to fall in love with the process. And people don't.
Starting point is 01:06:35 They fall in love what the game provides for. Yep. They lose sight of why they are where they are. Meaning like, okay, boom. Hey, bro, you're here to play basketball. I know you want to hit the spot tonight. I know you want to go hang out with shorting them. But don't ever lose sight or why you're here.
Starting point is 01:06:57 Yeah. You can never lose sight. in that, bro. Take, okay, you want to go out, go out once a month. But how are you going to go, dog, how are you going to go out two, three times a week? When it's popping, it's popping. It's popping. You go to a city, you go to a city that's jumping, Miami, Atlanta, New York.
Starting point is 01:07:16 Well, you ain't, first of all, that ain't happening in football. Your ass going to get there in an hour after you arrive on show. You better tell them you're going to be a special teams meeting. Oh, yeah. Then you're going to have a team meeting. Then you got individual, because we had tests. We had a test. So our test, the tight end, we had a test.
Starting point is 01:07:35 Every plate, you had to write down what you had on that plate. What you had, the hot and also a counter. So what was going to be if we audible out of that plate. So we had it write down. So we got a test and all he got is a plate. Now we got to tell him what we had and what was the audible if we checked out of it. Yeah. I remember them days.
Starting point is 01:08:03 Man. I just, guys didn't take it serious, man. I took it serious. That's why I get upset. And people are like, man, you know I couldn't. Because the guys had the same amount of time as I had. And I understood, bro, I worked my way up. I was a seventh round drive pick.
Starting point is 01:08:20 Yeah. Started out on special teams, just being scout team guys, and then worked my way up. Bro, it can be done. I'm not saying everybody, even though, You might work your way up, but everybody might not be a pro bowl player. But you could have played a lot longer than what you did. Oh, yeah, yeah, for sure.
Starting point is 01:08:38 You cut yourself. I agree. All right, time for our final segment of the evening. It's time for Q and A. Before we get to our super chats, we have three video voice mail. Let's take a listen. Hold this L, Y, go celebrate. Boy, the joke was off the chain
Starting point is 01:09:17 tonight in San Antonio, man. I already know. I already know. Hey, congrats, bro. Do your thing, do your one, two. Enjoy it. Enjoy it. Well, deserve, bro.
Starting point is 01:09:27 Man. Well deserved. Y'all played your ass off tonight. Y'all don't deserve to win. Y'all earned that win. Yes, sir. Every run, y'all had a big lead. They came and took it.
Starting point is 01:09:38 And every time, they tried to pull away champagne or somebody made a three. They make a three and somebody was stayed attached. Absolutely. never lost side of those tail lights. Absolutely. Absolutely. Hell of a game. Hell of a game.
Starting point is 01:09:52 Let's take a listen to our second one. Hey, mine. Say mine, live from Memphis, Tennessee. You're hearing me. So, oh, also, ICE, I guess they forgot to tell Chet that we got a game to play.
Starting point is 01:10:11 We're here playing a game. Show up. It'll be nice for you to show up. But I already knew he wouldn't go be good. He wasn't good in college, when they play when gazaga played against Memphis. He slowed out in that game.
Starting point is 01:10:23 But I'm gonna say this. Don't be surprised. O KC get the big center from Michigan. That 73 center from Michigan. They do got a lottery. They do got a lottery pick. Don't be surprised if they snag him for Wimby. Well, there ain't no answer for Wimby.
Starting point is 01:10:42 So you just got the, hey, just play Wemby, Miss. Man. That's what you're hoping for old Wimby. Hey, did you see. Go ahead, Joe. Did you see the back dough he did, though, when he dunked on Chick? Yes.
Starting point is 01:10:53 Oh, he passed it, he passed the Fox. The Fox gave it right back to him. Nice little giving go. He dunked on him so quick though. Nice little giving go. For me, man, for me it's just like, I wish Chick would've, if check would have won one for 12,
Starting point is 01:11:07 I would have been cool with that. But one for two, damn, he didn't even give itself a chance. He didn't. He didn't, Joe. I haven't to hold you, he didn't. Damn. But we talked to, Joe, we talked about this.
Starting point is 01:11:22 is that you watch it from game one all the way on. When Wimby was on Chet, Chet was not even looking at no damn basketball. At all. Because Wimby was putting it right back in his face when he was shooting. Yeah, he's like, man, I can't shoot over this big dude. He's going to block it every time
Starting point is 01:11:42 because he was blocking his jump shots. He was. He stopped looking at the rim. And the thing else is that you look at Wemby and he's a taller, but he's more athletic. He's more nimble than Chet. Yeah, absolutely.
Starting point is 01:11:59 If you watch Chet, Chet look very robotic. I'm not saying that he's not skill, but it's almost like he's thinking about his moves as he's doing them. Well, Wembe is just freed. Fluid, fluid, super fluid. Yes, very fluid.
Starting point is 01:12:11 Yes. I agree. Very fluid. You can tell in his moves and defensively how he moves, he's a big, To be 7-5, hey, he moves with a lot of fluidity. Yeah, he's not, he's not clumsy.
Starting point is 01:12:27 He's not like tripp stumbling over himself. Bro, look, look, hold on. Y'all got to look at his size up when he out there handling the rock. It almost looked fake because he is the biggest person on the court. He's like, hold on, how in the hell this man out here just tween, twine, sizing his man up, sidestep and go, bro, that's, at his height, The way he does it is remarkable. This was a very disappointing series for Chet.
Starting point is 01:12:55 Yeah, Shea didn't have his, didn't shoot the best. He had, I mean, look, he got Caruso, came along with him for a lot of those rides. McCain played extremely well. Yeah, they four, look, they were determined if Shay, if he's going to shoot that 53% on these tough-ass jump shots that we're making him take, we've got to live with that. But what they did is that they locked in on those other guys. Yeah. This was the game that Chet was supposed to say,
Starting point is 01:13:26 you know what, you took us, hey, the first three quarters, especially the quarters two and three, Shay, I'm going to bring it home. Yeah. Yeah. If he ain't saw him any other night, he definitely wasn't showing up when it mattered most,
Starting point is 01:13:40 and that was the night. But this is what we got, Ocho, this is why you have a one-two punch. Yeah. But I think, I think if you okay, see, though, you don't overreact because you hope hopefully j dub can stay healthy next season because if you have him maybe you can offset some of that castle and harper and fox you know what i mean because you got to understand j dub did win him a game i think what there was game five or six in indiana
Starting point is 01:14:07 uh with jub went out for like 40 like i i think he i think you know we we miss inside of that So with them not having him, I mean, it was a huge difference. It was. That's disappointing. Man. The reason why you have a big three, if one of those guys are out, the other two can carry the load. This is a game that you need a check to carry his weight. You did.
Starting point is 01:14:37 You did. That's it. That's why everybody can't lead to lead. Everybody can't beat a lead dog in not did a rod. No. No. Let's take a listen to the last one. Oh, what's good night cat family?
Starting point is 01:15:02 Yo, I remember last series, Ocho didn't even have the spurs to win that series. Now all of a sudden he wants to switch up just because Unc and Joe are going for the OKC man. Hey, we're out here watching it. I told you how we was going to be in the West and Conference Finals. Now we're going to be in the finals. Hey, call his ass out then. That's what I'm saying. That's what I'm saying.
Starting point is 01:15:27 And he loud, he's loud or wrong. What are you talking about? No, you didn't. You had Ant Man to beat the Spurs. No, I didn't. Yes, you did. Yeah. Yeah, no, not you, Chad.
Starting point is 01:15:38 I know. I'm gonna call you what all your ladies you call you call you, you call you chair. Nah, I know who I had to win. He don't know what he's talking about. No, you had you had to win this series. No.
Starting point is 01:15:53 Come on, man, we thought you were gonna keep 100. I am 100. I mean, listen. Just because y'all, listen, y'all don't hate because y'all wrong. Don't do that. Don't do that. I had, first of all, I had the Spurs to get past Minnesota. You did not.
Starting point is 01:16:12 Hey. What? I had the Spurs going to the finals. I had the Knicks going to the finals. That's exactly who's going to be there. That's all that matter. Sound like grad, chat. Okay.
Starting point is 01:16:26 Okay, so you can go home and fret. If you listen to Ocho, you're likely won your best Spurs and, Seven. Side note, make sure you give Cornyette his flowers for that block. I did. I tweeted. I played a game.
Starting point is 01:16:38 It was. They win this game because that's going to be played a game. That was the turning point moment. That crowd was getting ready to erupt. Yeah. And if I'm not mistaken, that was their second, that was their second turnover to Joe and Ocho.
Starting point is 01:16:53 Yeah. Cornette hustled his ass off and said, you know what? Elve block. And he knew it. Hey, you see what he got. to the side lot how they were hyperdy, how they were they piping them up?
Starting point is 01:17:07 Yeah, yeah. Look, because look, all he'd been hearing is about the non-wimby minutes, how OKC has been taking advantage of the non-wimby minutes, meaning when his ass is in there. So, yeah, that was a huge confidence booster for him. It was unbelievable. It was unbelievable. That was an unbelievable play.
Starting point is 01:17:31 There was a lot of great plays in that game. They're going to talk about that play for a long, long time, Joe. Yes, uh, yes, uh. Spurs to the finals, Ocho called it, baby. Let's go. Go Spurs, go. Yeah, uh, funny, I've never heard of a winning team say, according to analytics, we're actually losing.
Starting point is 01:17:53 Well, Ocho blame analytics with ISO and still takes about best podcast trio in the game. Hello. You know what it was, Joe? What? are for guys that couldn't play the game, couldn't coach the game. So I have to find a way to get into the game. Right, right.
Starting point is 01:18:13 So they do these numbers. Yeah. So a lot of them got jobs. And that seems to be the thing. You go for it on four down. Do we fake it here? Do we do this there? What, you know,
Starting point is 01:18:30 it used to be coaches going gut field. And analytics don't take an account, momentum. Don't take it in the crowd home or away. Don't take in the crowd or count nothing. It's a bunch of numbers that you poked in and it spit it out. Facts. Well, the basketball or soccer,
Starting point is 01:18:50 ethical ball won this weekend. Yeah, PSG beat what. Who is that Real Madrid or Arsenal, Ocho? Yeah, PNGB Arsenal today and penalty kicks. It was a beautiful game. Beautiful game, beautiful game. PXG won back-to-back Champions League.
Starting point is 01:19:07 I mean, Arsenal played a really good game. Very important. And that Stan Cronk his team? Yeah, Arsenal, yeah. Yeah, that Stan's team. Yeah, it was a good game, really good game. Put some respect on Ocho's name. Come correct when you mentioned number 85.
Starting point is 01:19:28 Man, that Joker got lucky. Triple X Cup Saturday said, Arsenal lost, O KC lost. A Siri, play Ice Cube. Today was a good day. Ocho was right. Chet's going to have to take a look in the mirror. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:19:58 Four points. It was a series, rough series for him. It was. Ocho called it yet again. Oh, man, here we go. Hey, hey, listen, I'm not bragging, Joe. I'm not bragging.
Starting point is 01:20:14 I mean, I mean, let the people, let the people decide, Joe. You've been, you've been gloating and bragging. since we got a whole night. Let the people remind you, man. Damn. Cornett blocked that shot the same way he blocked Magic City Night in Atlanta. Hey, hello. Hell.
Starting point is 01:20:32 Damn. Damn, Cornynett. If I were right, my boy, bring out that strap on this party night. What? Hey, hey. No, no. I'm on the road.
Starting point is 01:20:54 I ain't got it. We ain't got it with me tonight. We ain't got it tonight. I'm on the road right now. Damn. You're going to celebrate when I get home, though. Ocho Damos. Don't mess with Big Texas.
Starting point is 01:21:08 Talk your ish, Ocho. And to all Thunder fans, flopping ain't always going to work. Let's go. Like I said, when you saw those guys tonight, I was like, okay, okay, look at us. Say, hey, they're going to let them play tonight. They did. Let them play tonight.
Starting point is 01:21:26 He did. What's up, nightcap, ISO. What's more important? guard to get the ball or a score who can get to a spot. Shoot. A score who can get to a spot. Now, this is the 80s of the 90s, or the early 2000s, I'd say a point guard.
Starting point is 01:21:45 But it depends. What kind of offense are you running? Yeah, it depends. I mean, you look at Houston here. They got a score who can get to his damn spot, but they need a damn point guard too. Oh, yeah. The triangle offense really doesn't require a prototypical.
Starting point is 01:22:01 point guard. Yeah. Yeah. But you got two of the greatest score, one-on-one scores in the history of the game. Yeah. But most teams didn't have that,
Starting point is 01:22:10 doesn't have that. Right. Breaking news, there's no more King Isol only. King Ocho. Y'all so quick to laugh at his takes and predictions. Both of y'all owe him an apology.
Starting point is 01:22:27 Not just for this series, but the whole NBA playoffs. Hey, hello. Man, damn an apology to his... Hey, Joe, he won't get it. Hello. You won't get it for me. Hey, don't worry about the people, though.
Starting point is 01:22:40 Long with the people, know. You ain't get no apologies. I don't care what they don't. You ain't got to apologize. I know. And won't. Hello. OKC might need to see J. Dubb to the Lakers to get the most dominant man in the NBA.
Starting point is 01:23:00 Who? Abomination to help stop Wendy. Oh, man. Come on, man. Come on. man. That's funny. It's good.
Starting point is 01:23:12 Fellas, rate these playoff performance worst to best playoff performance this season. Chat, Ait, during. God. This right here,
Starting point is 01:23:23 chat was the worst performance of anybody. Aiton, second, enduring third. At least during that, their triangle. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:23:33 That's, with a four-point performance, Joe? That's tough, bro. Four points. Because you counted on him. You needed him.
Starting point is 01:23:41 You was at home. You needed him. Damn. These boys were playing like the game point at the rec center. Y'all better call your own file. I love this. I did. I love this.
Starting point is 01:23:55 Let them play. Let them play. Do you understand had they let the OKC Thunder shoot 35, 40 free throw, Joe? What would have been saying? Damn. The players on the court determined the game tonight. Yep. Not a rest whistle.
Starting point is 01:24:14 Absolutely. Absolutely. And as a fan, that's what you want to see. Breaking news, the first postseason trade ever. The Thunder have traded Chet hungry to the bucks for Yonnis. Hey, hey. Boy, they go, hey, Chet, you go here, bro. I hope you got thin skin.
Starting point is 01:24:38 Now, it takes a while to sound to get up there to those ears because you real tall. But boy, you're going to have a lot. You better have some earbuffs on and some earbuds in. Boy, they go, hey, I just want you to know. There you go here. Until next season, they're going to light your ass up. Yep. Until you're back in that situation again.
Starting point is 01:25:00 Yep. Yep. Oh, they won't be back in tonight. They're definitely going to be back in it. He's going to have a chance to redeem itself again. Okay. All these other NBA fan bases just wanted to see OK, lose, not yet to see Wemby and hate him for the next 10,
Starting point is 01:25:17 15 years. Side note, Chet the F out of here. Okay. Damn. I don't think they're going to hate on Wemby, bro. I think he's hard to hate on, man. Yeah, bro.
Starting point is 01:25:29 Because he can't, it seems as though he cared too much for the game, and that's a good thing. Guys, Lou Doherd has to be the worst starter on the championship team that I've ever seen. No way he's back next season. Love the show.
Starting point is 01:25:42 Nah, he wasn't coming back. Not when you got Wallace, you got Mitchell, and you got Caruso. He a free agent? I think they got a club option for $18 million. They got to figure it out. I think because they do have three first round peaks,
Starting point is 01:25:59 they got to figure out what they're going to do with their roster for real. They got to trade some play. They got to get them up. Got to get up off there. Yeah. Define Frank Castle and Victor Black Manja. Mama Nama. Tell OJP.OPS, Frank Castle, is the Punisher, fellas.

Starting point is 01:26:38 I know you, I know you don't seen it, Joe. I probably had, I'd have heard of it. I don't heard of it, but, but yeah, hey, hey, Castle, one of my favorite guards to watch now. Oh, yeah. Hey, Castle don't take no mess. Hey, but you see I, Dillard, Harper had to tackle it, bro.
Starting point is 01:26:56 He's about to stop a mud hole by the Caruso. Hey, because he's about to mess up the church's money. You hear me? Yeah, man. What? Chet should have won Western Conference MVP. He up the Spurs out tremendously.
Starting point is 01:27:11 By Charles Barkley Boys, I guarantee he gets traded this offseason for Yonis. And Dort, he's going to. Amen. I wouldn't. Man, y'all just can't think just because you put two great players together, Chet and Janus don't fit.

You got to make 22 twos. So you taking a 21 foot two, bro, go take that foot back and go to make a 22, make a, uh, get to get us that extra point. Yep. Unless you're looking at it now. Unless you're bonafide per score and you're shooting 53% from the field like she was this year.
Starting point is 01:28:52 Mm-hmm. They rather a three over two any day. Absolutely. Absolutely. Nickson 4. OKC, we need to trade Dort,

Chance of y'all, I'll be give you another one, because your time up here. Shadda, how do you see yourself as an introvert when you were the locker room leader?
Starting point is 01:36:05 God rest is soul, and goose. Me and him both know you ain't no damn introvert. Did you ever end up getting your restitution? No. I'm an introvert. If why come I'm in a locker room, it's like, when you're in a structure setting, Ocho?
Starting point is 01:36:20 Yeah. You're different. I'm different in a locker room than I am when I'm out in public. I don't really be out in public. Go to the gym. I don't really be talking to anybody. I get on the plane. I'm in the airport.
Starting point is 01:36:34 I'm sitting down. Going about my business, I'm out of there. Somebody sitting next to me to ask me a question. Hey, yes. Thank you. Thank you. I appreciate that support. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:36:44 Tell Ocho, we love to show, tell Iso. That's it. Structured, controlled environment. Yeah, I feel like I can be myself. Because here's the thing, Ocho. The thing is, is that I had somebody told me today that somebody said, man, they say, man, they saw you and they told me you was going to come visit them. Say, I know him.
Starting point is 01:37:05 That's a lie. I see, that's why I don't really talk to people. Because if you don't, if people allow on you when you don't talk to them, what would they say if you talk to them two, three, four minutes? Hello. They'll make one up. And that's why you have to be mindful of that. Because if you notice, you know,
Starting point is 01:37:22 because the thing is what I've noticed Ocho and Joe and just, you know, spend a lot of time, you know, hate is lonely. Yeah. A person won't hate you by themselves. What would they do, Joe, Ocho? They won't. Try to get other people to hate you.
Starting point is 01:37:34 Yeah. Misery loves company, yeah. So I can't, if you just, so that's what they do. I ain't got time for that. Yeah. Because if they don't know, if they can't tell something,
Starting point is 01:37:46 on you, they'll make up something. Yes, uh, every time. People ain't really see me out nowhere or anything. And they just, oh, I know him. I know him. Everybody, every, every woman that comes on club station, oh, you're, uh, uh, don't talk to. Oh, Lord, that person.
Starting point is 01:38:06 I said, Lord. That's why I just spend so much time by myself. It's just easier that way, Joe, oh, Joe. Yeah, I already know. It can keep confusion down. Oh, man. Hello. Y'all be saying all that stuff.
Starting point is 01:38:21 I'm like, okay, sure. That's exactly what's happening. That's exactly what happening. As y'all tell it. You know what it is, man. You know what they say, conversation rules and nation, huh? Yeah.
Starting point is 01:38:34 Hey, hey, hey. You're holding them big boy conversations, man. They, you know, they're going to speculate. Mm-hmm. Yeah, they'll make it up. Yeah. I let them. I used to try to make it.
Starting point is 01:38:48 Because here's the thing. If you, well, if it wasn't true, you wouldn't say anything. Okay, you don't say anything. It must be true. Right. If it wasn't true, you come up. So how do I win? You don't.
Starting point is 01:38:59 You can't. If I say, if I say, hit dog holler. And if I don't say anything, it must be true. So how do I win? You can't win. I give up. Hey, I'd have turned it to, by, hey, from now, like, for the longest, for moving forward.
Starting point is 01:39:14 Like, when people say something, I'm chat. I'm turning to chat performance. Oh, man, come on, man. Come on. I'm giving that kind of performance, Joe. Come on, man. Come on, come on, now. I would give up a chat performance.
Starting point is 01:39:26 I don't care what they say. Believe what you want. They don't believe what they want anyway. No, you know, hey, bro, you know I don't care. Yeah, well, yeah, we know. Joe and I gather that in a bunch. Hey, matter of fact, I got one for y'all, man. I forgot to tell you all.
Starting point is 01:39:44 What? The joke. Hey, what? What the football? player said to the flight attendant. What the football players say to the flight attendant? You want to catch a pass? Nope, what you got, Joe?
Starting point is 01:40:10 I don't know, Joe. Hey, man, the football player said to the flight attendant, put me in coach. That was a good one. That was a good one. Man, Ocho, you need help. Thank you guys for joining us for another episode of Nightcap. What a thank you.
Starting point is 01:40:38 As the San Antonio Spurs do what many didn't think they could do, they go on the road in the game seven and beat the defending champs with a two-time MVP on their roster and they take them down. Tremendous, tremendous, tremendous victory. Victor Wimbeyanama was the Magic Johnson Western Conference player, most valuable player, but he got great contributions from Champini. He got Vassaini. He got Darren Fox had his best game.
Starting point is 01:41:06 Stefan Castle was a dog all game long. He's been a dog all series long. And then Kelton Johnson was sensational. Dylan Harper was great off the bench. And even Carter Bryant, he only played three minutes. But he was great. And the play of the night belonged to a guy that I've been critical of.
Starting point is 01:41:28 Cornette. He had the block of the night on Hartinstein that flipped them on, that kept because that place was about to rub. They was about to be down by two, and then they come down and hit a three, and they didn't look back. So congratulations San Antonio Spurs.
Starting point is 01:41:44 And I think we're going to have a great series. I'm hoping for a great series. And the Knicks and the Spurs. You got New York Knicks who hadn't been to the NBA finals since 1999, and if I'm not mistaken, they haven't won it since 1970, what, three? 72, 73. And here we go.
Starting point is 01:42:07 Y'all know I am. I'm your favorite uncle. There's my partner and co-host. He got it right. He picked the San Antonio Spurs to beat the OKC Thunder, the rock runner extraordinaire, the Liberty City legend, the bingo ring of fame honorary, a former pro bowler and an all pro.
Starting point is 01:42:22 That is Chad, Ocho Cinco Johnson. And we missed Nyjoba. We'll get it next time. Y'all know the Silky Smooth Shooting Guard from the Atlanta, Hawks, a seven-time NBA All-Star, and he was a big three MVP, led to league and scoring in his first year.
