voice on because I would never ever joke about a 5G network that has invested billions in
building 5G towers across the country.
Not even once.

Ocho, LeBron started a bit of a discourse on Friday when he spoke about Ant not striving to be the face of the league.
Let's take a listen to what Go James had to say.
be the face of the league. Let's take a listen to what Go James had to say. I don't know. Why do you want to be the face of a league when all the people that cover
our game and talk about our game on a day-to-day basis shit on everybody? That responsibility,
that's just weird. It's weird energy.
I like that. I like it. I like it. But again, but again, are you able to be the face of
the league and deal with the scrutiny that comes with on the other side of the media?
Can you not care? The word I like to use and you use this time, can you compartmentalize
and separate the two? Still go out there and do what you need to do despite knowing with
being the face of the league, you got to be on 24 seven. Are you going to be on 24 seven? Absolutely not. You won't have your nights.
You won't have your nights. You won't have your nights off.
You won't have your night. You want your highs, your highs to be.
You want the percentage of your high to be much better than your lows.
Yeah, for sure. Who wants to deal with that?
Do you think about it?
LeBron had LeBron is the right person to be able to talk about it
because he had pressure because he's gonna have pressure
since he came out of high school.
Yes.
He didn't have to deal with it.
Times 10, more than anybody I could think of
because of the expectations coming out of high school.
But you know what?
The thing is, Ocho, is that look,
that's not something a player says I want to be the face.
We get to determine that.
The media get to determine the face of the NBA. the media get to determine the face of the NBA.
The fans get to determine the face of the NBA, not said player.
That's not something LeBron is having the face of the NBA.
That's not what magic. That's not what Jordan. That's not what Bird.
That's not what Kobe. That's not what Steph did. Right.
It's sustained excellence for a period of time and they won.
It's a sustained excellence for a period of time and you win.
Just because you got a couple of highlights, that don't mean you about to be the face of the league.
Nah.
And look, I get it.
You know, it's like, well well Jason Tatum and and and Shae and
It's just hard for me to see a foreign born player because this is an American sport. It's just hard for me to see a
Americans getting behind a
Non-american athlete saying you're the face of our sport
But we'll see what happens
But you look at jaw you look But when you look at Ja, you look at Ant,
you look at Tatum, and people are like,
well, Jason Tatum, I like Jason Tatum.
But people keep saying, well, hold on.
Are we sure Jason Tatum is the best player
on his own team?
Because all I know, finals MVP went to Jaylen Brown.
All I know is Eastern Conference finals MVP
went to Jaylen Brown.
So are we certain?
Right. Because it can be no ambiguity.
Kobe couldn't come to face in the league as the second best player on his own team.
Shaq had to leave in order for him to be that face. Right. Jordan was the best player on his team.
Berg was the best player. Magic was the best player. LeBron was the best player.
Now, it might have taken 22 years for you to say,
you know what, LeBron is the second best player,
not if he got a guy that's damn near 10 years,
well, 14 years younger than he is.
Luka just turned 26 the other day.
But, I mean, Zion, Zion's gotta win.
He's gotta be on the court.
So the guys that we could say as far as American players,
Ja, Ant-Man, Zion, Jason Tatum, we'll see.
Hey, is my camera crooked or am I?
Your camera's crooked.
It is?
Yeah.
Hold on.
What about now?
It's still crooked, all you did is move it one way
and move it right back.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I'm not going to do this.
How can I only do this when I'm on the road? Look at your
head. Can't you see your head?
Can't you see the closet behind
your eyes tilted? Whoa. No, you
gotta look at the camera and see. You don't see it tilted. Oh, yeah, it looks like it's like yeah
It is so what you're doing?
Yeah, you better there you go, hold on but listen it's um
The the tripod that I'm using I don't know why it's not even in the center of the camera
it's to the it's to the side it's to the side of the camera and so once I once I
wrote once I screw it in, it like, it tills down, you know what I mean?
I'm gonna go get it, oh snap,
I'm gonna go get it new in tomorrow.
I'm gonna get a new stand tomorrow.
Yeah.
Ocho, he elaborated the next morning.
Exactly made my point, made my point made my point but
anyways happy this converse convo has started it ain't no face of the game
ain't know about one person or one show it's about a culture of basketball the
beautiful game in the world the most beautiful game in the world my game has
never been eat been better incredible young stars from all over the world some
elder ones Steph Steph Curry,
she'll be all we're talking about today. True. Man Drop 56, we talked about it, Ocho. Let's
discuss how great OKC and the Cavs have been this season with two completely different styles and
break down why and how they have. Of course, if players don't perform, we need to discuss that too and break it and break that down. Even that can't be discussed in a way that's not a brain finality to a
player's game, but leave room to see how the player responds and let's watch the journey
of that player. This ain't about me either. At this point, I really don't care what you've
said about me. Always. It's always something. This is about the impact of negativity
is having on our beautiful game and our fans.
I know it speak a lot about players.
More importantly, a hell of a lot of great fans
and truly love and celebrate the sport around the world.
Mind the game.
What'd you think it, Ocho?
Damn, that's it.
I'm trying to think.
I mean, you look at it. I mean,
look, the sports are about
stories. What's the story? I
mean, Shay, I mean, we're about
to have another foreign born MVP.
That's what we're about to have.
Shay is from Canada. Yoke is just
one three. Hold on. Shay not from from Canada. Yo, he just won
three. She's not from the
Korea. She's from Canada.
She's from Canada. We don't
want three. Y'all just want to
Joe Allen. So, it's been a while
since we had an American born I'm gonna ask you to watch more
somebody else. I was I was watching the game. I was flipping back and forth.
But they had to come from behind because they were down.
Damned the whole game in Portland.
And they came back and ended up winning in overtime.
But they've been really good.
And they were down the other night against Boston
and found a way to win in Boston.
Because Boston has had their number this year, Ocho.
Yeah.
And as I mentioned earlier,
Kenny Atkinson has those guys playing really, really well.
I don't think he should have lost his job in Brooklyn,
but hey, you know, they got guys
and they wanted to move in a different direction.
And with that level of talent,
when your aspirations are a championship,
and you hire a guy like Steve Nash,
hey, they did, but look, if you're the face of anything,
too much is given, much is required.
Yeah.
You're gonna get a lot of benefits
as far as advertising dollars,
as sponsorships gonna come your way,
but you do heavy in the head that wears the crown.
And that's one of the pros of it, now.
Let's talk about it. Yes.
Let's talk about it. Yes.
Yes, Deandre Hunter, that's the guy.
They picked him up from Atlanta.
I'm surprised, but Atlanta's like,
hey, we're not going anywhere, so hey, let's offload.
Deandre Hunter can play.
He still can, but hey, he's let's offload Deandre Hunter can play. He was he still can't.
But he he should be six men of the year because he was balling.
He's averaging 20 off the bench.
And then people laugh at me when I said
I averaged 28, 28, 12 and 10 off the bench.
No.
You average 28 seconds off the bench.
No, I'm just saying you You getting straight, you getting straight,
you getting straight, the game's out of hand.
No, come on, absolutely not.
If Brother Hunter could do it,
what do you think I would do if that was my game?
Yeah, Brother Hunter was the most outstanding player
in the March Madness.
Yeah. That's about you.
Jamie Foster defends LeBron's legacy.
If he came up with a curate cancer,
they would say, yeah, what about diabetes?
40,000 points, over 20 years of play,
carrying this bum ass league on his shoulders, ungrateful.
No matter what you do,
they'll always find a way to down your greatness. No matter
who it is.
Nobody. Nobody. Ocho, I've followed this game for an extended period of time and I go a
ways back. Nobody in the history of sports other than Muhammad Ali when he did what he did. Yes, sir. It ever caught the vitriol.
That this man did.
Nobody go.
Go back and look it up.
Nobody has nobody.
The man, the man scores 50.
They say, well, Kobe would have got 70. Jordan would have got 80.
Oh, it's point.
The man give you a 50 point triple double.
Against that team, y'all do realize
a lot of these teams were in the league when Kobe played.
But y'all just goes, y'all do realize Kobe retired.
He was 36 and 37, 37?
Yeah.
Y'all remember what he looked like his last three years
or you just gonna forget that?
Oh, okay.
Don't wait.
We're gonna just forget that.
Don't even worry about it, Ocho.
We're gonna forget that.
Yes, sir.
Do y'all remember about what Jordan looked like
in Washington?
Washington.
We just gonna get that.
See, oh, that was just finishing up.
Now, if they had won a title,
everybody would have spoke about the greatness
of those two guys.
Now they didn't win the title,
didn't come close to winning the title.
I heard when LeBron first got to LA,
all he came, he came to be Michael B. Jordan.
He came to be a movie star.
Now, he's been all NBA since he's been here.
He's won a title.
He's been the MVP of the finals and they still won't give no credit.
They think it's a I got no problem giving people credit.
If you play good, I'm going to say you play good.
If you play bad, I'm going to say that too.
You bet. Yeah.
You always been fair, but listen, but that's the luxury.
That's the love you're about having your own platform.
That's the luxury of being in a situation.
Hey, everybody knows how I feel about LeBron.
But if he plays bad, I don't have a problem saying that same thing with my home.
Same thing with Kelsey.
But see, I like I like it because they say I criticize.
When I criticize Josh Allen, they say I'm racist.
If I criticize Lamar, they say I don't like black.
So I'm doing a pretty good job, Ocho.
So I'm getting on both sides.
You know, I'm doing it right down the middle there.
You're right.
Listen, you're fair.
You're fair and everybody get the same treatment.
That's it.
Now, I don't hear anybody said when Lamar was coming out,
I said, I don't care what they say.
Lamar, don't you take your ass to receiver.
Don't do no receiver drills.
Oh yeah.
Don't do no DB drills.
You are a quarterback.
Go play quarterback.
And then if you can't make it as a quarterback,
say, you know what, I can't play quarterback.
Let me go head on.
I'll go to wide receiver.
But don't, I'm not running no drills at no wide receiver
because I've been a quarterback.
Even when he struggled, I was supportive.
But if he plays bad and I say, well, Lamar didn't play well today, he's got to do a better
job of taking care of the football.
Why you bro?
Well, so what am I supposed to say if Lamar plays bad?
I just want y'all to tell me what am I supposed to say if Lamar plays bad? I just want y'all to tell me, what am I supposed to say?
Cause Brady played bad, I said that.
When Peyton played bad, I said that.
When Romo and Breeze and Dak and whomever else,
when they play bad, you looking at it too.
The only difference is, I get to tell you,
since look, in a situation like this,
why would he throw the ball into that coverage? When know is this coverage and you know you got you supposed to go elsewhere with
the ball I
Ain't got no after grind I ain't jealous of I had okay career old Joe Oh 7th round draft pick
Made it all the way to the high pro bowl all pros soup bowls hall
So why I'm just trying to figure out people saying, you be jealous of what?
Y'all make it seem like I was a special teams guy.
I did, I started out on special teams, Ocho.
Let the team tackle.
Wish you was on point return, I had something for you too.
Who?
I bet you can't sit on a branch and turn your head around.
You.
You, that's who.
When you scared to catch the puns,
you scared to get back there.
I ain't even worried about you back there.
Who?
You doing an awful lot of whoing tonight.
You keep forgetting my rookie year,
my rookie, my first and second season I was the wedge
buster and you keep talking about me being scared.
You ain't talking about your wedge buster.
You ain't no wedge, you too light to be a wedge buster.
You get your neck broke.
You do realize, okay, I don't want to get off topic, but I was a wedge buster.
Ask my teammates.
I'm sure you know some of my teammates as a rookie when I came in, who the Wedge Buster was.
Not you.
All right.
Because back then, the wedge was a thousand pounds.
They had three man wedges.
I know how much it was.
And you ain't hitting those three man.
First of all, you ran in the ray at 245
and collapsed like a deck of cards.
Time out.
You saw me run in the ray and trip over my shoestring
is what you saw.
No, I didn't see that. No, I didn't see that. I did not see that. So I can imagine if you chat,
y'all think he ran into a ray at 245 and collapsed. You think he's going to run into a thousand pound
wedge? You understand physics, the laws of physics. I understand it. I was a math major
I was the econ major so I understood what angles I need to take on the wedge and
To affect what they did regardless of size. Oh Joe
Ocho you do realize the wedge back then you had I mean it was like
De-limbered and offensive lineman. So you dealing with 333, 40, running.
I was there.
You sitting here telling me like, like I was there.
I'm the one running.
I'm the one running into it.
What do you do?
I want to see some tape when you busted the wedge.
Sure.
Yeah.
They'll show you and Dick LeBow.
Now I'm going to ask him about that tape.
Like you tell me you want to take from when I dropped 52
or what I had average 30, you want to take. I ain't seen no tape yet. I want to take from when I dropped 52 or when I had average 30 you want to take I ain't
See no tape yet. I want to see tape when you busted the wedge
I can pull some tape with you. I could get some tape for you me on special teams if you want it
You know Matt I'm at I'm at NFL fans pull it for you so you can see it if you
If you won let you if you
want me if you want me to pull
some tape of me making tackles
on special team or kick off or
punt. I was a gunner. He want
to see me make a tag. I knew
that. Okay. I can't. Hey,
matter of fact, it's about me.

want to know you want to know You what first of all you what no no you what no no special team with ad was playing yeah
He was the gunner man would you try to I know it was the gunner huh I know fast was the gunner Yes, yes, and I hope you think was I was on him I
Still play special teams even then so you was a jammer yes? Yes, in my prime. I was everywhere. Make some noise for the greatest shooter of all time, Steph Curry.
We went live from All Star Weekend for a new podcast called GOAT, Greatest of Their
Hair, and we ranked our top five shooters from the 2000s.
Paysia Five, Dirk Ford.
Paysia is a lead.
Okay, okay. I'm mad at him, I left him off my list, but I still like my list.
You won't believe who Steph left off his list.
That's so tough.
That's why we have these conversations.
Yes, absolutely.
I love it.
Steph talked about what separates the truly elite NBA shooters.
When you have a scouting report and you're on the list as not just a shooter, but we
have specific rules for how we guard you.
There's a fear factor that's associated with it.
Anytime you're wide open, you might as well just count that and get on back on defense.

My name is Brendan Patrick Hughes, host of Divine Intervention. This is a story about
radical nuns in combat boots and wild haired priests trading blows with J. Edgar Hoover
in a hell bent effort to sabotage a war.
J. Edgar Hoover was furious that somebody violated the FBI and he wanted to bring the Catholic left to
its knees.
The FBI went around to all their neighbors and said to them, do you think these people
are good Americans?
It's got heists, tragedy, a trial of the century, and the god-damnedest love story you've ever
heard.
I picked up the phone and my thought was, this is the most important phone call I'll ever make in my life.
I couldn't believe it. I mean, Brendan, it was divine intervention.

Jimmy Butler has been sued for allegedly failing to pay $260,000 in rent and leaving behind
more than $127,000 in damages related to a luxury home he leased in Miami Beach.

to pay two months of rent at 130,000 per month
for the property, damn!
Hold on.
Oh, tap me.
The lawsuit, hold on.

to have failed to maintain the swimming pool the air conditioning and a lot of
leaving leading to an expensive mold that require replacement of the ceiling floors on the property

That's like a 25. That's like a 25 million dollar home mocha. Oh
Well, I'm listen. Hold on how much how much?
I don't know why I'm listen hold on how much how much
hold on how you paying how you paying 130 000 a month on a 10 million dollar home
a 10 million dollar home only supposed to charge you about 40 000 or 45 000 a month
listen the fact that you even know the numbers of how much it sure costs that lets me know
I'm out of y'all that's that's out of y' that lets me know. Y'all out of my range. Y'all out of my range.
I mean, the numbers you're even saying is too much.
I can see it.
I got it, but it's not connecting.
130 who a month?
Never ever, ever.
I don't care what it is.
$10 million home for what? home. I don't care what it is.
Ten million dollar home for
what? Because I because I play
an NBA, right? Because I make a
certain amount of money. That
means my lifestyle has to has
to match. Yeah but Jimmy, I
don't know why Jimmy just didn't
buy. He didn't. I don't know
why Jimmy didn't buy a place
because he had been there for an
extended period of time. He
knows he knows he won't he won't
live here. It's it's not his
home state. Yeah, that's 1.5 million.
Oh, you know, and one point.
So he doesn't dare, Ocho, if that's $10 million home.
That's a drop in the bucket for them dudes.
That's beside the point.
The point is, Ocho, he's paying that much in rent
for a place that he's sending somebody.
He's paying for somebody else vacation home.
Right.
He's paying for somebody else kids to go to private school
and nice college.
Right.
1.5 million on a $10 million home, that's crazy.
And.
That is absolute, that's just bonkers.
Hey, remember what kind of money they make?
They make it. Yes, I get that.
But just because you make you money, I'm trying to let I'm trying to figure out
what financial advisor let him spend one point five million on a house
that's only valued at 10 million.
That's my point.
Damn, if you got it, if you got a financial person,
ain't no financial person in their right mind would let their client do that.
Yeah, that's, listen.
I ain't tell you,
I'm, cause I mean,
I mean, what do you have a financial advisor for?
Now maybe they did tell him and he didn't listen
because like you said, he's making that money.
Yeah.
Me, what's the point of having a financial advisor
if I'm not gonna take his advice?
And what if the financial advisor didn't even say anything? Because he wants to continue to remain his financial advisor.
If you know what I mean. Yeah.
Hey, that's 138. Man, I'm still trying to wrap my head around that. Yeah, but every month, you hear me?
Boy, stop playing, boy.
Jesus.
Add it up.
That's gotta be a 30.
What's the interest rate?
God.
Put in a Google, a 40 million.
What if I put $2 million down on a $40 million home,
what would be my monthly payments?
on a $40 million home, what would be my monthly payments?
Because this is freaking me out, Ocho.
Now, the numbers being at high in general, it just doesn't sit right with me.
Yes.
Yeah, you put, no, say you put down 10%,
you gotta put down 10% of house right
Okay, put down 4 million. So that's 30. Okay. So how much is the monthly payments?
And what's what's interesting, huh 220,000
Okay Okay, 5% interest rate. So come down to twenty-five million. So you put down two point five million.
Don't tell me. One thirty-seven a month for a twenty-five million dollar home.
If you put ten percent down, which is 2.5 million, would come to $137,000 a month.
Oh, so that means Jimmy must have been on Star Island then.
I don't know where he was.
All I'm saying is with that kind of money
that you're paying out monthly, I know.
Don't ask me how I know, but I know.
$25 million home, it's only so many $25 million homes. know. I don't ask me how I you're paying for the location. Location. You sit there with all the options. Real estate, what is real estate, Ocho?
Location, location, location.
That's it, that's all it is.
That's it.
Now you can get the same house that's 25 million
in Miami Beach, and you can be in Houston
and get it for five million.
Yes.
Boy, do you know how much house you could get
in Houston or Vegas or Tennessee?
What?
Oh yeah. Yeah. Crazy.
Man, you'd have to have.
Listen, you'd have to have like maid service like they got to the hotel to clean that.
Clean that. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
Most definitely.
You're talking about 50,000.
Hello.
Holyfield building.
Holyfield house.
The one Ross got.
Yeah.
That's 50 plus thousand square feet.
He built that for like 10 million dollars.
That's it? Yes. It's ginorm thousand square feet. He built that for like $10 million.
That's it?
Yes, it's ginormous.
Huge, huge.
You see how much grass?
You got a full baseball field, Olympic-sized swimming pool.
Different.
Yeah, I'm listening, 130,000 a month?
Nah, hell nah.
Nah, I can't do that.
Not it. Not even if I got the money, Ocho.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Hey, listen, you talk to the you talk to the choir.
Man, man, please.
Stephen Curry.
Oh, yeah. Was cooking tonight.
When is he?? 56 points.
He had 56.
12 made threes, 16 of 25.
12 of 12 from the free throw line.
He outscored Orlando by himself in the third quarter,
22, 21.
It's his 14th 50 point game of his career.
Steph Curry has nine nine game nine.
What nine made threes in NBA.
He has 45 games, Ocho, in which he's made at least nine threes in a game.
The next closest is the Dame Lillard at 14 and then Clay Thompson at 12.
And if I'm not mistaken, if I read this correctly,
I think if you take up the next five,
Steph has more or he's tied with the next five.
So if you Dame Lillard, if you put in Klay Thompson,
I think JR Smith is in that group,
but it's about five of the guys
that have made at least nine threes in a game.
And if you combine the next five highest,
I think Steph still has more than all those guys.
He was on one tonight.
And you know, we've seen this throughout his career.
Once he gets cooking,
you just hope you can weather the storm.
And you got guys, Paolo Bankero was cooking also,
but not till he wasn't on fuego like Steph was.
I don't know if you saw this game, Mocho.
Did you take a look at this game?
No, I didn't have a chance to look at this game.
Obviously, I was asleep when this game was going on.
I'm just waking up from a nap so I could have the energy
I needed tonight.
But when I look at the stat line,
I look at how efficient Steph was from three
and his numbers at the free throw line,
it just comes back to like, I mean,
is this something we're not used to?
Is Steph even human at times?
Because we've seen him put up these type of performances
throughout his career.
And like you said, when he gets hot, he gets hot.
So it's like, okay, yeah.
Oh, Steph dropped 56?
I mean, it's like, okay, nothing new.
We're used to this.
We've seen, you know what I mean?
In a sense, we've seen this before. So I mean it's like okay nothing new we're used to this we've seen you know you know I mean in a sense we've seen this before so I mean yeah it's Steph and Steph has 45 Dame has 14 Clay Thompson
has 12 James Harden has nine Anthony Simons has five CJ McCullough has three so if you take the
well JR Smith has five so if you take those next if you take Dane well, JR Smith has five. So if you take those next, if you take Dane, Clay, James Hard, Anthony Simons, and JR,
they have the same number.
If you throw in CJ McCollum, now you got six guys and they have three more, nine made threes
in a game than Steph Curry.
Man, that's crazy.
He is the greatest shooter that we've ever seen.
The way he can shoot, there isn't a bad shot.
You know, once upon a time, I mean, that's a terrible shot.
Yeah, there is no terrible shot for Steph Curry.
Not for him.
I mean, and what's most impressive?
Yeah, shooting the basketball is impressive.
But it's it's also it's the continuation of running.
Do you understand what type of conditioning
this man has to be in?
Because you know when you get tired with anything,
hell, you get tired of running around, Ocho.
You're like, woo, hands get lazy,
head, eyes get lazy, head get lazy coming around.
All that stuff.
And for him to put that kind of running in,
because he's coming off screens continuously.
He's one side, he'll, hey, long rebound,
he'll reset, goes back up with it again.
For him to be able to do this
throughout the entirety of the game is unbelievable.
I'm glad I've got an opportunity.
I'm glad I'm old enough and I'm wise enough
to understand what I'm witnessing
because there've been some great shooters,
but they've been nothing like this young man.
He is phenomenal at shooting the basketball
and every accolade or superlative that you want to bestow upon him,
he's more than deserving of that.
Model citizen, doesn't get in any trouble,
you don't have to worry about him.
Hearing his name off the field, wife, four lovely kids,
and he's what you want your franchise,
you say, okay, he's a franchise player, that's what you want your franchise. You say, okay, he's a franchise player.
That's what you want your franchise player to look like.
Yes, sir.
That's what you want your franchise player to be.
He's been a great ambassador for the NBA.
He's been a great ambassador for the Curry family.
There's nothing that his mom and dad should ever, ever,
nobody in his family should ever be ashamed of anything
because the way he speaks,
the way he conducts himself on and off the court,
take a bow, Steph.
Boy, you was on one tonight.
I don't, hey, whatever you ate today,
Steph probably go, hey, he gonna send them,
hey, go get that again.
We gonna take that on the plane.
Wherever we going next, I don't know if they play in Miami
or they head down to Atlanta,
because they're probably on an East Coast trip, Ocho.
Hey, whatever you ate before the game,
whatever you did before this game.
Same routine.
Oh yeah.
Same routine.
I don't know if he's superstitious or not, Ocho,
but if I'm him, to have a game like this,
think about it, Ocho.
I'm sure when you had those big games,
those what, a couple of 200 yard games.
Oh yeah.
What did I do today? And you know what's funny? Most of the time when you had those big games, those what? A couple of 200 yard games. Oh yeah. Man, what did I do today?
And you know what's funny?
Most of the time you had those big games like that,
you get to drug test the following morning
because the NFL thinks something wrong with you
and you go back and try to remember exactly what you did.
Right.
You can't even remember.
Because sometimes at times it don't be nothing special,
it's just one of those days
where everything just seems to go right.
Right. Well, I don't know why Steph Curry get drug testing,
because if he take a drug, they backfire.
They ain't working.
So whatever whatever he take, he needs to take more of it or leave it alone.
But you like I said, there have been some great shooters.
Labr was a great shooter.
Reggie Miller was a great shooter.
Obviously, Clay, Dame Dalla, arguably
the Ray Allen, James Harden could let the ball go. We've never seen anything like Steph
Curry. I'm not so sure we're going to see it again. Now, eventually somebody down the line
might make more threes, but I think we can definitively say even if they make more threes. But I think I think we can definitively say even if they make more threes,
they weren't a better shooter than Steph.
They just got because Steph, what created this brought this wave
in to take in that many threes because it was a golden state
that was shooting 30 threes a game.
Now you get some guys they shooting
50 teams, 50 games, so guys coming in shooting more threes.
But as far as just flat out shooting a basketball.
Yeah, nothing better than him.
We got an opportunity to see it on full display
at the Olympics.
Oh yeah.
Remember that last game against France?
In crunch time when we actually needed it.
Yeah, they had him double.
Hey, he passed it to KD.
KD swung it back to him.
Hey, as my good friend Mark Jackson say,
can I have this dance?
Yeah.
Hey, between the leg, behind the back, crossover,
step back, 28 feet, splash.
However you want it.
He can cover, hey listen, like you said,
not only is he the best shooter,
he can create his own space.
Oh yeah, yeah, he got creative.
Hey listen, he coming off picks, running plays, creating his own space.
All he needs is a little bit, man.
Because his release is so quick, huh?
His release is so quick.
It's like, man.
Because the thing is now what he's done before, what he didn't do earlier in his career, he'll
put the ball on the floor and go by you. Oh yeah. So if you hug up on him, he got the kind of handles
that can put the ball on the floor and he got a nice float game. He can finish. Now
he's got to go finish above the rim like a Russ or like a D Rose could, but he can finish
nice float game and you know he's, you're filing, he's the greatest free throw shooter
and percentage wise in NBA history. So he's really hard to defend because you want to get aggressive and not let him.
He's looking to get separation and all he needs is an inch.
He gets that separation and the next day, you know, he's launching one.
And so, yeah, he but it was unbelievable to watch him get in that zone
and to see guys get in the zone.
Guys didn't usually get in the zone like this from distance.
We've seen guys get hot Ocho and they'll lay the ball up
and they got the mid range game,
but he's shooting from distance.
Yeah.
I mean, 22, 25, 28.
Hell, hell, 25, the logo.
He got that kind of, he got that kind of range.
He has that kind of handles.
He's unbelievable to watch and woo,
I don't know, I might have to reassess
what I think about the Golden State Warriors
because I didn't think they was gonna do nothing.
They still got an uphill climb because they were,
I think 10th when Steven and I had this conversation
on Tuesday and so they got some digging
because they're still in the play-in currently.
I don't, I'm not sure how much ground they can make up
to get out of that play-in.
I think you gotta get to at least the sixth seed
to get out of the play-in.
We'll see.
But Steph Curry carried him tonight.
Jim, nobody did anything other than him.
But when you got a guy like that,
all you're doing is sitting picks
and getting them to basketball.
I ain't trying to interfere with that.
I ain't trying to get no shots.
So.
If he hot, let him cook.
Hell yeah.
Let's show.
Get out the way and let him cook.
Nah, don't cook.
Let him burn it down.
Hey, burn this mofo down.
But he was on one tonight.
And like I said, when he gets going like that,
it's just like, oh Joe, you see like it is,
a guy catches a bunch of passes.
Once he gets it going, Chase, you see Chase and Jetta
and you see these guys get going.
You at their mercy.
Once a lineman get going, you let a Miles Garret
or you let a TJ Watt and they get a couple of sacks early,
you got your hands full with the rest of the game now.
You better double him, you better chip him.
Now you better, hey, nah, that's an all pro over there,
left tackle, that's an all pro, I don't care.
That don't mean nothing.
Not when the guys getting it going like that.
You kinda at their mercy, and when Steph gets it going,
and these guys, I mean, you talking about it,
damn, Clay, we saw Clay and these guys, I mean, you talking about it about Dame Clay.
We saw Clay the other night, getting cooking.
And he was something special going on.
The Volume.
Make some noise for the greatest shooter of all time,
Steph Curry.
We went live from All-Star Weekend for a new podcast called Goat, Greatest of
Their Era, and we ranked our top five shooters from the 2000s.
Major Five, Dirt Four.
Asia is a lead.
You won't believe who Steph left off his list.
That's so tough.
That's why we have these conversations.
Yes, absolutely.
I love it.
