Here's what's cracking in the arena today.
The Lakers are off to their best start in 14 years,
and LeBron has reached the NBA Finals.
In every season, he's started at least 2-0.
Will the streak continue this season?
We can't talk about the best team in the NBA, can you?
Yeah, come on now.
The in-season tournament champion, Los Angeles Lakers.
Goddamn, three games.
Somebody said it was gonna be 0-5. 82-0 season three games. Somebody said it was going to be 0-5.
82-0 season.
On pace.
No, we didn't say 0-5.
Goddamn three games.
Somebody on this couch said 0-5.
We said 3-8.
Oh, wow.
Y'all starting off exactly how we thought.
On pace, nigga.
Steph Curry left the Warriors home opener with a left ankle injury.
Uh-oh. Throw it in the Warriors home opener with a left ankle injury. I don't want no knowledge, y'all.
Uh-oh.
Throw it in the pot.
I'm listening.
How concerned should the Dubs be about their superstar status moving forward?

All right, so we're going to start this show off.
It looks like we got a sister.
I said, no way.
No.
No pork on the floor.
That white woman.
Excuse me, sister. Excuse me, sister. Excuse me, sister. That white woman on the floor. That white woman's foot. Excuse me, sister.
Excuse me, sister.
Excuse me, sister.
That white woman on the shoulder foot.
Milk of magnesia.
Ladies and gentlemen, it is Halloween week,
and we are celebrating the occasion.
Excuse me, sister.
So, Nick, we're going to start this show with a sensitive subject.
Yeah.
We've got to talk about the NFL.
Bears were looking for their first road win of the season.
I don't want to talk about that.
Leading 15-12 in the final moments.
All they needed was to stop Jaden Daniels, Hail Mary, to secure the victory.
And then this happened.
That was great.
So before the snap, Bears quarterback Tyreek Stephens, number 29,
could be seen mocking Commander's fans before finally realizing the play started and running into the action.
He was the one that messed it up.
He was the one that messed it up.
He was the one that ended up tipping the ball that was caught by Noah Brown in the end zone to give the Commanders the win in front of the whole crowd.
That's crazy.
Crazy.
And I'm watching it.
You don't ever get to see it live while you're watching the game.
I was watching it live, too.
I was watching the game live, and for that to happen, it's like, yo.
That was crazy.
Nasty work, as the Yankees say.
So after the game, Stevenson tweeted to Chicago and teammates,
my apologies for the lack of awareness and focus.
The game ain't over until zeros hit the clock.
Can't take anything for granted.
Notes taken.
Improvement will happen.
Hashtag Bear Down.
So, Nick, as our resident Bears fan, what are your thoughts
on Tyreek Stephenson's boneheaded play?
Oh, man. It was jinky.
You know, I stopped watching. I was at my daughter's
birthday party yesterday.
It was blowing the candles. I waited
till we scored the touchdown.
Twenty-some seconds left. I thought it was over.
Turned the phone off.
Just blow out these candles, y'all. I'm happy.
I'm happy. I'm happy.
I blew the candles out.
Somebody said, check your phone.
It was over, man.
And then, you know, we had to pack this shit up, daughter.
The party was over.
I lost money, baby.
Somebody else got to pay for this shit.
The party is over. Shit. Ken, you were watching live. Oh, shit. Somebody else got to pay for this shit. The party is over.
Shit.
Ken, you were watching live.
Oh, that's a hell of a way to lose.
Man, that was crazy.
You think he danced, like,
for him to have that much time for one.
He ran from one to the right, back to the left.
He was dancing back there, joint.
And, yeah, amen.
Knock the ball down.
Everybody's been in that, like, talking trash when you think it's over situation though i know i did that oh i've been there i have yeah i've been
there with one of you oh go ahead if you want to share go ahead well mine's a championship
in a championship when we beat um cleveland you know it was like 20 seconds wind down, you know, it's over I was dancing on the floor and shit
Then the confetti came down
You're not talking about that before the other way. Oh, no, no, no, I never happen to me
It might happen to you I was talking shit. Shit like that just don't happen. In 2004. That's damn crazy.
In 2004 when Chauncey made the shot from half court.
Oh yeah, that's crazy.
I was over there talking cash shit.
Right before the shot?
I found out I was talking cash shit.
Damn.
Chauncey banked that bitch's head.
Man, from all the way, it was three quarter court?
Hell yeah.
Nasty work.
Yes.
I was over there talking cash shit. That happened to you before, Gil? What? That. Three-quarter court. Oh, yeah nasty work. Yes
What that celebration they like
Mm-hmm Toronto made it to free throws
Like a rough and look just like that, all buff. Caught the interception.
Looked just like that.
All those muscles.
Ain't too many people who look like that.
He threw two feet in the air.
Yeah.
Two feet.
Just all the muscles that was in his body.
Two feet.
Oh, yeah.
And then Moe P. came in.
He just got in the game, too.
He just got in the game.
He ain't played the whole game.
And it could have been an and one.
If we was in Toronto, that would have been an and one.
He got fouled by Karan.
And then we lost in overtime.
That's the end.
We lost in W.
We couldn't say nothing either.
We just.
What was the move like in the locker room?
You've told that story before.
What was the move like in the locker room? Was've told that story before, but what was the mood like in the locker room?
Was y'all mad at Mike?
Oh, no, we was hot, but it was Mike.
So, you know, y'all couldn't really fuck with Mike. Yeah, you know, he's very nice,
but those are the type of guys that can snap in and break your neck, right?
The only person that was talking was Karan.
Yeah.
Only Karan.
Yeah, only Karan.
Karan was...
So yeah, we just in the weight room for no reason now, huh?
Man.
All the muscles.
Yeah, all the muscles.
Can't do nothing with them.
Okay.
So that's how we're going to do it.
Throw it a little higher next time, brother.
Shia, you ever been in a situation like that where you played yourself?
Yeah, I mean, it's the Timberwolves
We were in situations like that all the time
Where you know, you're just asking to lose the one stupid shit
Um, I think we were playing Boston this one cage. He was in Boston. So we created some type of
animosity between the two teams because of the they had players on the teams before so
Cory Brewer was playing and
He's a rookie so coach decided he was having a riff with me. He was just gonna sub Cory in
It's 10 seconds on the clock
Cory get a five second violation
They bought we was up to They get the ball back Ray Allen hit the three in the corner. Game winner.
Mm.
Out of here.
Mm.
I'm just sitting there.
Damn.
Get that table ready.
Get that table ready.
We popping balls.
Hey, we celebrating.
It's your fault, coach.
It's your fault, coach.
You dummy.
You big dummy. You big dummy. He's a big dummy.
Unfortunate situation.
Yeah. Now let's talk about
some positives, though.
World Series started this past
weekend between the Dodgers and Yankees.
Dodgers first baseman Freddie Freeman
ended Game 1 with a bang.
That's why I lost my voice, ladies and gentlemen, in case y'all
are wondering. I was in the building.
Didn't get to see Ice Cube game two, but was turned up,
celebrating Fernando Valenzuela's memory.
But after the Yankees intentionally walked Mookie Betts to load the bases,
Freeman stepped to the plate in the bottom of the 10th inning with two outs,
Dodgers trailing 3-2, proceeded to hit the first walk-off Grand Slam in World Series history.
So Freeman had to hit a homer this postseason,
but picked the perfect time to end the drought.
He also homered in Game 2,
and he's hit a homer in four straight World Series games,
which ties him for second most all-time with Lou Gehrig and Reggie Jackson.
The record is five by George Springer in 2019.
So the Dodgers took a 2-0 series lead in the Big Apple for Game 3 tonight.
Been a lot of legendary I'm Him moments in the sports world.
But in your expert opinion, what's your favorite I'm Him moment in sports history?
Ooh.
Yeah.
Like just a performance?
Just one single performance?
Yeah, one single situation like that.
Because they walked Mookie Best.
They tried to test him.
Nestor Cortez thought it was sweet.
Yeah, he had a rocket out there, Jordan.
Beautiful moment for L.A. sports history.
To walk off.
I'm here moment probably for me.
It was watching an 18-year-old kid win the dunk contest.
Kobe Bryant.
Ooh.
I was about to say Kobe, too. Yeah, that Kobe Bryant when he won the dunk contest. Kobe Bryant. Ooh. I was about to say Kobe too.
Yeah, that Kobe Bryant
when he won a dunk contest
and, you know,
that swag he came in with,
that was like...
With the legs and all that.
Right, yeah.
That was...
Like, when you're talking about
just dunk contests,
that moment was probably
the best dunk contest aura, swag.
That or MJ's, I think it was his first year in the dunk contest.
Rock the cradle.
It was that year, the gold chain with the regular outfit.
He got on sweats.
He was in the warm-up.
He got on sweats like, yeah, what's happening?
What y'all doing out here?
Nasty.
So honorable Rashad McKenzie, what's
your favorite I'm Him moment in sports history?
Sports history?
History.
That you've seen, obviously, in your years on this earth.
I got to say, it's a newcomer.
It's a newcomer.
And I'm not being biased when I say this.
Elijah Arenas, watching his highlights,
gives me legendary I'm him.
Swag, energy, poise, triple team, quadruple team.
I'm just looking forward to that for him.
In the tennis shoes.
Man, just...
Real tennis shoes.
You just say, I'm him.
I'm thinking all the I'm him, like confidence and unwavering.
I'm not looking at nobody.
I'm not worried about nobody.
No talking during the game.
No chit-chatting.
Yeah, I like Elijah out of everybody.
We found ourselves on the wrong side of Elijah moment.
I do a little coaching in the high school circle.
We did play yoga.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
He talking to me during the game like,
I'm not on the game.
We not friends right now.
We in it.
Leave me alone.
I'm watching Gil in the stands trying to steal signs and signals.
Didn't help.
I think he still gave us a 40, 50 piece.
Let's move it over to this side of the couch.
Nick, what's your favorite him moment in sports history?
I'll have to say probably myself.
Respect. When he was playing against Memphis, I think, in the playoffs, Clippers.
Of course, since we're going there.
That's the day I started the tunnel walk.
I came in with the fasaci down and shit.
Started all that.
Started the tunnel walk.
Started all that.
You know, we was down 24.
You know, hit like three threes back to back, come back,
the biggest comeback in history. My man to my left, locked up, what's his name, Rudy
Gay? Locked up the gay. Rudy, Rudy Gay. Locked up the gay. He locked up the gate. And, yeah, he won. Shit. And then, you know, I'm sitting next to Chris Paul and stuff on the podium.
You know, that was ran every day with my Versace on, so.
You started the total walk with the Versace fit.
Yeah.
And, Kenyon, how about your favorite I'm Him moment, sports history?
This is fucking boring, man.
I know, man.
I can't be serious after that.
Look at the pristine lineup.
Yeah, absolutely.
Wow.
Wow.
Could go with something for myself myself like he did but
Wow
Maybe one of these Patrick my home moments
Right last year year before in the Super Bowl
Yeah, I'm gonna go one of you maybe Pat my home's year, the year before in the Super Bowl.
Yeah, I'm going to go one of the maybe Pat Mahomes
AFC game,
AFC championship game.
And went on the road
last year in Baltimore and won it.
That's real talk.
But there's more.
There's a lot of him.
I'm him moments
in sports history.
Kobe's last game. There's a lot of him. I'm him moments in sports history. We can just.
Kobe's last game.
Yeah, that's what the chat is saying.
60-piece.
Like Kobe's last game.
Like that's a hell of a way to go out.
Yep.
Right?
At 81.
I think the last game is more impressive.
I think the last game more impressive.
60 at 30.
Right?
Kept the Jazz out of the playoffs.
It was a lot of. Yeah, took the Jazz out of the playoffs. Yeah. It was a lot of
implications. Because they needed that game. But you don't remember
Gordon. Y'all don't remember his
interview, right? Gordon Haywood?
Mm-mm. Yeah, he's
basically saying we kind of let Kobe
score that 60. Okay, that's fine. And not
make the playoffs? Yeah.
And that was, he was like, that was the weird
part about the whole thing. Yeah, we're not going with that one. Yeah, we're not going to go with that one. You know what I And that was, he was like, that was the weird part about the whole thing.
Yeah, we're not going with that one.
Yeah, we're not going to go with that one.
You know what I'm saying?
It was just like, this is such a moment.
What do we do?
So, I mean, to me, that's why I didn't say that one.
Because, like, the 81 to me was like, okay, 181.
Art is 63 and three quarters and set out the fourth.
Yeah.
And had more than the whole team at the half.
Really?
That's the math.
Tracy McGrady, Spurs.
13.
Yeah.
13 points.
Just like individual, just like, yeah.
13 and 33.
Yeah.
And Gil, you also had a 60 piece on the Lakers.
Summers said it was on Kobe.
Me?
I said it.
We've debated.
Rashad, you disagreed.
No, I agree.
Are you ready to acknowledge that that 60 was on Kobe?
But just for me personally, like, what mentally got me into the next
like okay yeah
was probably the game 5
shot against
Chicago
we was in Chicago and it was on Kirk Heinrich
you know we was blowing them out
Pargo came in and just
came off the bench and just
brung them back by himself
and tie game clock winding down left side hit that game winner Hargo came in and just came off the bench and just brung them back by himself.
And tie game, clock winding down, left side, hit that game winner.
And just the feeling of just watching the crowd just be like they left,
rushed all the way back in to just be disappointed.
It was just one of those moments. So, you know, when I was like, yeah, I'm ready for that next level.
Then from there, next year, just.
That's fire.
So, Nick, you touched on your own I'm him moment.
So you already got that side covered.
But on this side of the couch, would you say that 60 against the Lakers was your I'm him moment?
Or you have another one in your career that sticks out?
Is it obvious?
Is it obvious he don't listen to nothing I'll be saying at all good did
not just tell him my I him you did I just I just said that do you have any
more mr. no I just need one is obvious right is it obvious the couch is against
me greatness t-shirt greatness calm make sure you get your... And the authentic Timberwolves shorts? Where you get these at?
You know I don't listen to anything you say.
He's listening to what he ain't listening to.
Nothing I'm saying over here.
I multitask over here.
I'm getting my pick-ems in.
I'm him moment.
Early on, college, of course.
Um...
Freshman year.
Duke.
Um... Ended up beating them at home.
Hit the three to put us up, the free throws to take us over.
And got to stand up on the little, you know, when you run, stand up on the little scoreboard.
Man.
Do something, right?
What? You know how many of these I had next to me after that game, boy?
Top of the hill.
Top of the hill.
Boy, I don't understand.
When you're the man in that type of town.
Oh, yeah.
That type of town, you don't forget your memories.
The work was flourishing.
I'm going to stand on mine.
We saw you pull up to North Carolina recently with your pops.
Everything was all smooth there?
Everything was smooth. The live cutout. Everything was smooth. Y'all didn't see to North Carolina recently with your pops. Everything was all smooth there. Everything was smooth.
The live cutout.
Everything was smooth.
Y'all didn't see them North Carolina boys.
I told Hubert, you know, all is forgiven.
You know what I'm saying?
I'm back here.
I want to vouch for the Carolina program.
I want to vouch for him personally as a coach.
He wants to turn the program around and keep it valuable and prestigious.
And he's got two freshmen that look out hey hey Carolina might be back it might not want me back but it
doesn't matter hey I'll do my part you got a banner to the better part yeah
they can't hurry about yourself, I'm against DePaul.
At DePaul.
I remember that game.
We were down 17.
We're the number one team
in the country.

Oh damn, you were? So it was a star-studded affair
to say the least and
Dick Vitell was doing the game if he was and it was one of them
Dick Vitell get the new Dick Vitell moments
And yeah, I score it was one Husk all the time out and said we're gonna
play through Kenyon and I heard shoot it every time we're gonna play through him
so my brain told me listen if it come shoot shoot it. So I went on a run, man.
It was, yeah. I think I
may have had 35 that day,
that game. College,
that's tough, too. But it was
in a variety of ways.
Jump hook, turn around,
jump, step through. They was double, triple
teaming me, and it didn't matter.
I go down another end, get a block,
come back down, score, rebound, score, block, score. I'd go down another end, get a block, come back down,
score, rebound, score, block, score. It was, they would score, but I'd come down here.
It was, then I had the game winning assist to DJ, DeMar for game. Yeah, so that game.
They would have made us number one if they lost.
Yeah.
Oh yeah, I was waiting on that.
You was watching?
Oh yeah, yeah, we was waiting for them to lose.
Yeah, they was waiting.
I was like, let's go. Disappointed.
The thing is,
Pete Michael didn't play that game.
He was suspended.
Like, Huggs suspended for that game.
Yeah.
They got into it
because we had just played,
I think we had just lost the tempo.
We lost the tempo, I think.
Or something happened.
Him and Hugg's got into it and
He didn't play him so we was down a man. Mm-hmm
That's real spit and just back to that Dodgers World Series game real quick
Like I mentioned lost my voice was turning up in the crowd the comic folk would give something you'll appreciate
So no less than 10 Latino gentlemen from age 30 to 60
stopped me as I was walking in the seat

Sometimes chocolate is good.
I thought you knew what I was doing.
Sometimes it's good, man.
You don't just exclude me from the chocolate factory.
I listen to that, too.
That's the crew.
They place the beverages.
Crazy, man.
They figure it's good.
I'm going to say you.
It's because I listen to the White Album.
I got to get the Javala. By a great dummy that I know. The Beatles. Crazy, man. They figured. I'm going to say, ew. Because I listened to the White Album, I got to get the Javala.
By a great dummy that I know.
The Beatles are good, too.
The best words from him is, please, write the check, please.
This is when he got that shirt.
What the fuck?
Oak downstairs.
Is that me? I got to go? Yeah, I gotta go.
Yeah, I'm not even gonna front when you walk in.
I was trying to figure it out.
Good. Oak downstairs.
Yeah.
Gotta go.
What's wrong with him?
I'm wearing the Is It Obvious t-shirt.
I'm being Rashad.
I'm being you. It Obvious T-shirt. I'm being Rashad. I'm wearing the Is It Obvious T-shirt. I'm being you. I'm being you.
That's good.
See?
I'm being you.
Leave this man alone, man.
Steve.
Since y'all trolling, since I want to join in, you being Rashad McCancell, I'm trolling.
Don't do it to us, Steve.
Not the perfect moment.
Now full circle.
Oh, man.
Can you do some beats?
Two for me. Now full circle. Oh, nigga, can you do some beat?
Just do for me. Just do for me.
So...
Not the intro flip on your...
Yeah, man, it's a delicate shirt right there.
Yeah, this is...
Uh...
So...
Okay.
And the one you rolled in on.
I got you.
If you and the horse,
I believe that is former Nuggets head coach
riding that horse.
Yeah, that is definitely him.
With theme shirts, see?
We all came appropriately dressed
for Larry Cemetery.
That's crazy.
Right on time.
Right on time.
That's something you would do, right?
Absolutely.
Hell yeah, that's another level.
That's another level.
I said we all put some thought into it.
Is it obvious?
You can't say that.
Is it obvious?
This is obvious. We all came multi-layered today.
I visited the greatness website.
Oh, good.
Don't feel the scandal.
Don't feel the scandal.
I know.
I know you're a true supporter.
I'm waiting for the air McCants to drop.
We're good, man.
I already told you I'm going to buy two pairs.
We're on the way.
But the Dodgers aren't the only L.A. sports team cooking right now.
Lakers have opened the season with three straight wins in the J..A. sports team cooking right now.
Lakers have opened the season with three straight wins in the J.J. Redick and Bronny era.
J.J. Redick and Bronny, undefeated as Lakers.
Three and 0, all pace, first 82 and 0 season, NBA history.
First 82 and 0, so they're all paced for it.
72 and 10 season, baby. And through the first three games of the season, it looks like AD is on the way to the MVP.
Davis has been dominant on both sides of the ball.
After becoming the first Laker...
This is clickbait right here.
This is called clickbait.
You just put this in the caption.
One thing y'all know, I will always support what I say.
So after becoming the first Laker,
we're back-to-back 35-point games to open the season
since Jerry West in 1969. He's also the first Laker with back-to-back 35-point games to open a season since Jerry West in 1969,
he's also the first Laker with three straight 30-point games
to start a season since Kobe in 2005.
So far this season, AD has averaged 34 points, 11 rebounds, 3 assists,
2.3 blocks, and nearly two steals per game on 57-40,
57-40-80 shooting splits.
And like I mentioned, Lakers at this very moment,
as we tape this show on pace with the first 82-0 season,
NBA history, nothing will dissuade them.
But season's very early, obviously.
I'm going to cut you off because you was raving and all that shit
about the end-season tournament last year.
The champions.
Y'all won that bitch, and the wheels fell off that bitch right after that.
So don't be too excited about it because we all,
somebody said y'all going to be three and, was it?
Three and eight at this time?
So guess what?
I thought somebody said oh and five.
It's a great possibility.
Y'all still on the pace.
We said y'all would be three and.
Like y'all still on pace to be three and eight.
So don't be in this bitch acting like it ain't.
Okay, as I mentioned at the top of the read,
two gentlemen on this team that were not on this team last year
that have righted the ship,
and new head coach J.J. Redick,
and 55th overall draft pick,
Bronny James Jr.
Bronny J.
Just his mere aura, his presence on the bench.
All right, I'm with you.
Dominant, locked up Anthony Edwards.
In his first NBA game, held him scoreless.
But let's talk about this.
Way to go, Ronnie.
That's what I'm saying, right?
We got to get those narratives off while we can get them on.
We don't know how long it's going to last.
I was on the trip, right?
He going on a trip.
He's still on the squad.
He going on a trip.
That means he going to be there for that whole three and five.
That's eight games total.
We'll get to see what that three and eight looks like.
Some other people have been sent to the D-League.
Not Bryant, right?
Bryant, we won an O in action.
Three and O as a team.
But we always know any loss and I don't play goes towards the team.
Got it.
Right? So we know he's not going to play cuz you gotta not play in and then we know we just treat
it just gotta sit out one game in the next five no we just treat it like just
like coaches do right if it if it's a win right it's their game plan yeah if
it's lost as you motherfuckers didn't follow the game plan. Right. Right. Same method right here.
So season, less than a week old, but we gotta talk AD.
Has AD been the best player in the league for the first week of the season?
One of them.
In the league?
In your one-up?
One-up.
One of them.
One of them.
One of them.
For sure.
Yeah.
Might be the best, though.
A1, A2.
I mean, A1, A2, there's another person over in Philly that's
out there just.
And that young boy down in Oklahoma City
ain't messing around now, neither.
Yeah, yeah.
Jason Tatum also performing well.
Absolutely.
Trae Young is hooping.
I mean, listen.
People are getting out to a good start right now.
The mellow hooping.
Mellow is really hooping.
The mellow is hooping.
The mellow hooking.
They ain't playing well, too.
Yeah, yeah.
What's up, man?
Everybody doing their little thing, man.
I thought it was the first game. Yeah, 21. Lakers beat three playoff teams. They lost to playing well. Yeah, yeah. I mean, everybody doing their little thing, man. I thought it was the first game.
Yeah, 21.
Lakers beat three playoff teams.
They lost to Brooklyn yesterday.
I think right now though.
All that Anthony Davis hype, man.
They lost to Brooklyn yesterday.
Stop it.
I know y'all need it for momentum.
I'll go the other way.
I know y'all need it.
Y'all need it for momentum.
We're going to go the other way.
So is AD's hot star for real or Fugazi, Sha?
You saying you don't believe it? 3-0.
What else do we need to see?
22-point comeback on the Suns.
Down against the Kings.
Nay.
We just need liability, sustainability, consistency.
Keyword.
We.
Welcome back.
Welcome back, baby. Welcome back. Welcome back, baby.
Welcome back to the Lake Show.
Welcome back to the Lake Show.
People don't know his whole house is purple.
We do.
Purple and yellow.
That we do.
He got to go in and he just be like...
That we do.
He just looking there like...
I'm supporting Dog Connect.
Okay.
I'm supporting Dog Connect.
The West Side Connect.
Why we being carried by LeBron?
That's it.
Everybody else has got to move around.
I'm like, we.
Me and Dawg have conversations and we talk about it.
Everybody else has got to move.
Everybody else, we're going to shoot every shot.
You know what makes the funniest sense?
Because he's one of them, too.
All the Kobe fans that don't like LeBron
is like Laker fans that don't want to be a Laker fan right now.
Who don't like LeBron?
What are you talking about?
He's the greatest of all time.
No argument from anybody.
No argument over here.
I don't dislike nobody.
I'm just saying.
The stickiest game is nasty.
You're saying real Laker fans can't be Laker fans.
The stickiest game is nasty. I said saying real Laker fans can't be Laker fans. Stick his game is nasty.
I said, compared to my guy, that's nasty.
Somebody said, man, LeBron out there doing Kobe moves.
Nah, I can't do that.
I said, what?
So, King, I know you've been critical of the Lakers in years past.
As you pointed out, we won the hardest in-season tournament championship last season.
The first one.
Wheels fell off.
In Vegas.
In Vegas.
Never been to Vegas before. Temptation. Huh? one. Wheels fell off. In Vegas. First, you know. In Vegas. In Vegas. Never been to Vegas before.
Temptation.
Huh?
What?
Congrats.
In Vegas.
Congrats.
Temptation.
Temptation.
Huh?
Everywhere.
Congrats.
Locked in.
Never been to Vegas before?
Like all-star weekend.
No.
No, Anthony Davis doing his thing right now.
I just want him to sustain it.
Just keep it going.
Because like I said, the numbers,
if you look at the numbers from last year,
you would think that it was dominating performance.
It was a continually dominating performance throughout the year,
but we all know it was a roller coaster of performances.
So if he can level that out and be around 28, 29,
and whatever he, 13 rebounds, whatever he has, that's, yeah.
Now he takes over being number one for that team, right?
You do this night in, night out, getting to the free throw line,
putting pressure on the defense,
shooting double-digit free throws every night.
He can do that because he can put pressure.
He's better than a lot of the guys he's going to face.
He's more athletic, faster, shoots it better.
So continue to put pressure on the defense.
And continue to get to the line.
Take the pressure off LeBron of always having to play make
and be the aggressor in all the situations.
You do that, now to start the game,
now they're going back to you, featuring you again.
First three, four plays.
Here you go.
Let's see what he got.
Now that's going to be a continuous thing.
We talked about AD taking the keys last week,
looking like that number one option the Lakers need,
especially with LeBron 39 going to be 40 in December.
But that was a big issue last season when those wheels did fall off.
It seemed like he would disappear at times.
Fourth quarter, not getting sufficient touches.
J.J. Redick has said it's been intentional that they want to run through AD,
get him the ball as much as possible.
He has an advantage nightly.
So he has an advantage nightly,
except when he plays like Sabonis.
No.
I'm saying, and that's...
Sabonis, Joker.
We was on 11.
We're not on 11 no more.
Joker and B.
And that's why I think it's critical,
and I've been saying it,
you got to go get a five-man.
You've got to go get somebody.
You've got to, listen, a body.
We had a guy on the couch last week that's a body,
an available body that you can use.
Well.
Right?
That's what I'm talking about.
I don't think you need a center no more.
You do.
I don't think Joker in them is not the lead candidate no more.
But when you play them, you might have to play them teams in the playoffs, right?
No.
Last year, he was a beautiful.
Right now, you got to go through Joker.
No.
You see the world.
No, not no more.
Do you see what he did at the end of the day last year?
I'm just saying, they lost their main, like, corner dudes.
Like, in Caldwell, Polk, Brown.
They got Russell Phil in that situation.
I'm not talking about the matches, Nick.
But that's what the matches.
Talking about him.
Matches make key.
Guarding the five men in that series.
But you ain't got to worry about nobody else.
But you got to worry about him being in foul trouble and Joker fucking abusing him.
Have you seen them lately?
I saw what Nicola did to him last year in the playoffs.
But have you seen them lately? Last year. And I saw Nicola just to him last year in the playoffs, but have you seen them lately?
Not the same team but just like when they want it right you stay out of guard you have you have him but think about All the other bigs that was on the team to relieve pressure for him, right?
So he was there with JaVale. So that means he was the four. He was out there with Dwight Howard,
which he gets to play the weak man in health.
But where do Brown?
Brown was younger then.
Brown right now is happy to be 1B in 80th.
No, but what I'm saying is we're talking about the defensive end.
Like Ben Wallace.
Ben Wallace is a great defender by himself.
But what did he look like when you had Rasheed Wallace with him?
Now he looks golden. Right? Because now
he can help. He can do all the tangible
things that his body can do. Where do you put
the 40-year-old at? He can't play the three.
I don't care. He's not a three.
He's got to play the four. He can guard the four
men on the end. LeBron can guard.
LeBron can guard.
But what I'm saying is you can mix it,
just match it. He defense player there, right?
Supposed to be, right?
He said he got gypped.
He said he got gypped.
It depends on what the matchups are.
But what I'm saying is you need a five man so sometimes he can go to four and be a help man.
Those games.
It's just certain games.
Like that series.
You have to.
If he has to play the five man and play him that series it
hurts us it's hurt it hurts him on offensive end but what scenarios last playoff at the full if he
looked like he needed a big or we needed somebody that could hit a knock down a shot we needed
jamal murray but never don't got two buildings that are too big but the other guy what i'm saying
is let's say we have hartenstein right let's just say Hardenstein. Hardenstein guards Joker, right?
And then Andy Davis guards Gordon.
He gets the help.
And he's not infallible.
He doesn't get the help.
Yes, he does.
Yeah, he does.
You live with Aaron.
So you're not going to live with Aaron Gordon making jump shots?
No, because if you're helping, he's dunker.
That's why Aaron Gordon lives in a dunker off of Joker's pass.
Boom, boom, boom.
But I actually want a big guard guarding me if I'm Aaron Gordon.
When I'm with Joker at any point, I want you to get bigger and slower
so that you help.
And I got easier dunks and easier putbacks.
That's the difference where I think you talking about if you played him at 4-5,
Anthony Davis is going to be prone to help more, which is giving up.
Whoever playing that four position.
If it's a stretch shooter, he's getting
shots. If it's a dunker, he's getting
dunks. Who would you rather have him be in
the help on that one?
Would you rather have Anthony Davis, who can
sit here and play, or
LeBron? LeBron is
always guarding. LeBron don't play no defense
at all. Why would you have him?
Because Rui would be more attentive to not to not help but I'm saying really they usually
Rui would have to guard
They put him on order Gordon. Well, Michael Porter. No, he's gonna Michael Porter's gonna move more
Somebody else got a dog Ron Garvey's got a guard somebody who Reeves Austin got a guard somebody
So who the other is Rui Reeves. Austin got to guard somebody. You got to guard. There's two of them. So who the other?
It's Rui, Reeves, A.D., Bron, D'Lo.
Yes.
So Rui is guarding the two.
So what ends up happening is you put, I mean, Reeves is guarding the two.
Rui and LeBron have got to play Gordon or Michael Porter.
Do you want LeBron or Michael Porter?
Yes.
Because Michael Porter is going to be stagnant.
He's going to stay. Yeah. Aaron Gordon is going to be stagnant and he's going to stay.
Yeah.
Aaron Gordon is going to be moving.
He's moving back door.
They would have to.
They'll do that.
And Sean.
Yesterday, I mean,
last year he was on.
This is going to be
disgusting.
He was on.
But after that lineup,
where did they go after that?
Yeah, he'll pop.
For our casual viewers,
I was like,
can you explain
the dunkers?
Big body.
Okay.
Big body.
Because I'm just saying, when they had JaVale in boat
Listen and let ad do with him do what he do at the four
He has an advantage most nights at the floor, but you know, can you explain the dunker spot to the casual viewers out there?
dunker spot for the bigs it's
right outside of the block
Near the out of bounds. So you're like behind the backboard outside of the block, near the out of bounds.
So you're like behind the backboard, out of the play.
For the guard, it's a hidden, it's like your side view mirror.
You really can't see what you can see, but you know it's there.
You know he's going to be in the dunker spot.
You're driving, you know you got a little outlet.
And that's where Aaron Gordon lives at.
So if you got a big that's liking to play defense all the time,
any of those bigs at the fourth spot, that's why they better at the five
because they can play one-on-one defense.
And you got somebody in the dunker, you always going to be at, you know.
A lot of my swinging off the rim, slapping the glass came from me being in the dunker.
What's so funny is the dunker spot back in the day was more like, I'm going to get the rebound.
So it was like Dennis, where Dennis Rodman, where Dennis Rodman, like you know how you
You can go underneath the rim and get it.
You're sitting there, that big guy, and he's going out of bounds to get in his blind
side.
So that's the dunker spot.
It's the corner nigga spot for the big.
For the big.
For the big.
It's exactly what it is.
Nick owe $100. But no, no, hell no. That's the name of my shit the big. For the big. That's exactly what it is. Nick owe $100.
But, no, hell no.
That's the name of my shit.
No, is that a term that is not one?
Corner.
No, you're right.
You're right.
That's his brand.
I can't say my brand.
I can't say my brand.
Not on air.
If you not on this air, you can't.
You're green lighting me.
What is your green light?
You're green lighting me.
That's my green light.
One of them motherfuckers.
It's one of them motherfuckers.
Green lighting me. So, what brand are you speaking of them motherfuckers. It's one of them motherfuckers. Green Light.
So what brand are you speaking of again?
What's your show name?
Huh?
What's the brand?
What's the name of the podcast?
Y'all Gaslighting Me.
What's the name of the podcast?
Y'all Green Lighting Me or Gaslighting.
Which one is it?
Green.
It's green.
It's green.
It's Green Lighting Me.
It's Green Lighting Me.
Nick, how do you say it in French?
I'm asking a question.
Gaslighting Me.
The first one was unsolicited.
Yeah, he definitely did that.
So you talk about AD want to shift over to Fort Christian Wood,
still out, should be back soon.
No, not the move.
You don't think that's going to be better?
Are they going to put Christian at the five?
No.
What?
It's all right.
For what?
For guard who?
So AD can play the four?
For guard who?
Whoever is going to be there. He's a four the four? For guard who? Whoever gonna be there.
He's a four, right?
He's a four slash three.
Yeah, he's a big shooter.
All right, so yeah, so that'd be a good lineup
for him and LeBron, they just switch off.
But yeah, I'm saying,
Chris Nguyen don't want no smoke on that block.
I can tell you that right now.
Not out of here, bro.
And no action.
You better off playing Vando at the five.
Still waiting for Vando as well.
You better off playing Vando at the five. You waiting for Vando as well. You better off playing Vando at the five.
You get a better fight.
What happens if they get Dwight, though?
It's like if they do get a big like Dwight, they move AD to the four.
If you're getting Dwight, like, JJ is one of those guys that's going to,
it'll be game to game if he's going to start.
Right?
It's just one of those.
Who you playing?
Yeah, who to match up to. It's only a few who would imagine a few times only a few times a year?
Yeah, and then other guys understand like it'll be them games where they got that five
Then you have a big deck is sub in this like his stand by itself like the white can be in with the second
See bossy money worried about Boston at former with the second group. I'm only worried about Boston if I'm a Laker.
We're only worried about undefeated teams at this point.
There's only a few left.
Because he can guard the unicorn.
Who?
Dwight.
No.
No, you go smaller with Boston.
AD.
AD, yeah.
He can guard.
You got to keep the same lineup you got with Boston.
Yeah, no, that's what I'm saying,
the lineup you got right now.
Absolutely.
That's perfect.
Yeah, against them, you keep AD where he is. Can you talk about Joker and the Nuggets, but currently tied for last in the NBA right now. Absolutely. That's perfect. Against them, you keep AD where he is.
Can you talk about
Joker and the Nuggets
but currently tied
for last in the NBA
right now?
If the playoffs
started today,
they would not be in.
Just pointing that out.
15th in the West.
I don't like the hate.
Listen,
I don't like the hate
on the team,
but if I can root
against the team
making the playoffs,
it's them.
Nah,
they ain't gonna see it.
I don't wanna see them. Sorry, they ain't going to see it.
I don't want to see them.
Sorry.
We have to chat.
Has AD been the best player in the NBA?
70% said yes, so we got to go with the chat on this one.
70% of the chat is Laker fans, bro.
70% of the chat are Laker fans.
That's crazy.
I really think, like, I think AD is. Majority of majority the chest and they're not like
My majority
Jordy says channel you're like me
You look for the one-laker.
There we go.
There we go.
70%.
Got proof.
Very intelligent most of the time.
But let's shift over to LeBron.
After the Lakers' first two games,
there was some out there questioning
whether LeBron was on the decline in year 22.
But on Saturday,
LeBron showed everyone,
including Father Time,
he is still the king.
So LeBron messed around and dropped a triple-double on the second night of a back-to-back, finished
the game with 32 points, 14 rebounds, 10 dimes, including 16 points, 6 assists, and 5 rebounds
in the fourth quarter, while going 6-for-6 from the field, 3-for-3 from three, and 1-for-1
from the line.
So according to Stat Mom, LeBron is the first player in NBA history to record a single quarter with 15 plus
points five plus rebounds five plus assists while shooting 100 percent from the field good I know
you don't like those stats but that was a good one no player has done that in any quarter oh
in the history of Adam Silver's National Basketball Association that's crazy I picked
the under two on his points. Back to back. Lower.
The lower.
The lower.
You got to do the live pick-ups.
Live pick-ups, Nick.
I'm telling you.
Came up big, hit on like three or four of them.
Back to back, he ain't going to...
My thing is this.
You said some people was questioning whether he's declining.
It just didn't look like the LeBron that we know.
Go ahead.
You asking a real serious question about is a 40-year-old man declining?
Not any 40-year-old man.
He's 40, right?
He's 40.
I mean, he still makes it look like it's easy.
He's just smarter now, right?
He's not, you you know doing what he did
when he was in his 20s so is that but yeah he declined a long time he's been declined he's 40
so should we all go back out there and try to shoot our shots since we can just go out there
and just come off two dribble pull up no contest come downup, no contest, come down, three-pointer, no contest.
And I see his knees kind of, I see it at the jungle.
When he laying that knee, he kind of keep that, yeah, keep that knee off that.
I'm like, that's old.
You getting old.
You getting old, Si.
A little side shot.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
A little side shot.
He don't want to land on them knees no more.
But it's still easy.
You get a triple-double in 2024 against these 22 23 year old. They should be embarrassed
Marsha be embarrassed
It's like when Jason kid was playing man. No, right? Yeah, but that was yeah
He's still smarter than everyone right? So though it like the physical for me, you know ain't than everyone, right? So, like, the physical form ain't the same, right?
And he's not just using his athleticism.
But you shouldn't be laying me.
You shouldn't be going by me.
Yeah.
At Jason Kidd, at that, you shouldn't be.
But he's still, like what I'm saying.
He's still smart.
He's still fast.
So he can come down.
Before, it was just straight line.
Like, I'm just going to run my, now he might give you
a little one, two, get you off and then go.
Like LeBron, it's
smarter basketball.
When we played
MJ when he was on the Wizards,
he averaged 20.
Right? A dude who couldn't jump
really no more, but he's still
getting his shot off because he knows that
I'm Michael Jordan, you're going to jump, jump you're gonna try to do all this extra stuff and i'm gonna just use you
you're you're a youth against you but and that's all this is he's just using his youth against but
my average in 20 back then was hard it was difficult right yeah because we can zone up and
load up no it wasn't it wasn't just because it was hard it was because y'all actually was competing
it wasn't like y'all were like, oh, this Mike,
we're just going to let Mike come in here and drop 40 on us.
Averaging 20 for the Wizards was something Mike had to work hard for, right?
Now it's like, to me, it's like he averaging 28, 29 at 40.
But making the playoffs.
Jordan was last place in the Wizards.
Somebody got to shoot the ball when you're out there.
I'm just saying for the competitors in the league,
a 40-year-old doing their triple-double on you.
Yeah.
You should go back to the locker room like that.
Because then you're looking at him like,
he must be God or somebody.
He must be out of this world.
What you talking about?
Play hard.
Play hard. Play hard.
You're not playing hard.
You're not playing like you want to stop him.
You're playing like you want to autograph after the game.
That's how they play against him.
He's at four now, though.
So he at an advantage.
He is.
No matter how you hit it, him at the four is an advantage to it.
Because he's still faster than him.
He's faster than every four besides what?
Giannis?
Right?
That's why.
Like, literally, you have a race with all the fours.
The only person that can probably beat him
would probably be Giannis.
He's not chasing a booker.
If you tell him, hey, you don't have to slow down.
Just keep...
Just run through the line.
He probably would beat Giannis.
In the 100? He ain't got to stop. Right? He probably would beat Giannis. In the 100?
He ain't got to stop.
He'd probably beat Giannis.
But it's just them two.
Just thinking about it hurt my knees, man.
I was going to throw one person in there.
Oh, your son.
You can't throw a young man in there.
Okay, you said line them up.
You said four.
Shit me.
Hey, what?
Wait, that boy be moving.
I'm like, man, put some pads on you, boy.
But for the most part, he has, you know, he has like,
when he plays, you know, Paulo Benchero, right?
Yeah.
It's going to be a slow, it's going to be a slow grind it out,
pump fake, let him, you know.
Benchero's going to want to jump.
He's going to want to try to beat him to spots he's gonna he's gonna try to use youth and when you're older like that
i play sam casale foul trump every game two two fouls first couple minutes of the game because
i'm trying to i'm trying to beat him everywhere so is lebron playing the four because he can't
play the three yeah of course. Absolutely. He can't...
Yeah, yeah.
I'm glad he ain't chasing...
There's some killers at that position.
What?
Did you see the three?
Gladly move...
Did you see the three?
Hey, I gladly move over.
When I play Boston, I'm mad as hell.
Because he can play this position...
Listen, my thing is...
You two, you're supposed to be two and three, not three and four.
He can play this position.
He got guard chasing too?
I don't want to guard him.
Yo, he can play this position for another three years.
That's why they winning like that.
I'm the greatest ball.
No, I don't doubt it.
Why am I ducking?
Why am I ducking?
I'm 40.
I'm 40.
I'm out here.
40.
I'm out here.
Come on.
He going to have to be out there.
You on the block.
Try to post me up, please.
You on the block, Nick.
You on the corner.
I don't care what brought you out here.
Oh, when I get this shit, when I get the poppinest thing,
don't matter who out here.
You out here.
You out here.
I don't want to hear how old you are.
Move over.
You know not to be out here when I get the poppinest thing.
I know when to move around.
You got to know how to move around.
I know when to move around.
I'm going to move to this floor.
I'm going to move to this floor.
Move to this floor.
And please, I'm inviting post-ups.
Yeah, come on.
I'm inviting post-ups.
Please, hey, come on down.
Please out here. Man, you ain't got no post game week. That's it. That's it. Your post-ups. Hey, come on. I'm inviting post-ups. Please, hey, come on down. Hey, man, you ain't got no post game week.
Hey, be talking about your post game week.
That's an advantage.
Because if you think about the four,
Benchero and those guys you named,
all of those guys,
you can't attack him,
make him look a certain way,
but then guarding him,
they like, we'll give it to you.
We'll give it to you.
Benchero going to get his number,
so you're going to try to take him off the dribble.
You got Youngfellin, Cavs, Mobley.
Mobley.
Right?
You know, those are the young ones that's coming up.
But for the most part.
And he can stay in front of them.
Yeah.
They ain't got foot speed.
They ain't got foot speed.
That or here or here.
Yeah, they ain't got that wide dribble.
Yeah, they ain't got.
Because he can get in, especially Evan Mobley.
He's not worried about him posting up.
It's like watching an old fighter, right?
Like Bernard Hopkins.
When Mike Tyson got ready to fight.
George Foreman.
Yeah.
That old...
Bernard was better at that age.
When he came back, he would put people on their wallet.
Bernard was with a championship.
True.
But you know that age difference.
Yeah, way smarter.
I'm with you.
When we watch them, they're slower, right?
And then they got some young kid out there that's hungry,
that's just wearing them down.
And then when they lose, you'll be like,
Man, if y'all was the same age, boy, you will.
And he's at that age where we're looking at him like,
you're going to get dunked on. on you're gonna get dropped a couple times
These young boys moving, but you know you gonna hold your own for a little bit
But you know there's gonna be a time where we gonna be like it's like me at 24
Yeah, you go. You go ahead. Let it go
My dolly in 24. Oh and Elijah gave me 20, but I gave a 20 right back, you know
But that's my youngest.
That's my nephew, man.
He's building confidence.
I don't want to make him look bad.
But nah, he shocked me.
No, the last time, at 24, when we played with Elijah,
banged on that over.
That's when I knew it was.
Oh, he was on our team, though.
He was on our team.
I seen that.
I said, damn.
Times has changed.
Times has changed.
I'm the old one.
Me and Gil were doing the same thing out there.
Move from a three-point line to three-point line.
Yeah, that's cool.
Offensive rebounder like this, just let it drop.
I ain't jumping forward no more.
Just drop.
I know I can hold you off.
Yeah, just hold you off.
Let it drop.
Let it drop.
Let it drop.
Elijah, leave it out.
Hey, come back and get this rebound.
Come back and get this rebound. Come back and get this rebound.
I'm doing my job. I'm boxing him out.
Just box out.
Get the rebound. He'll give it to you when you're
open for a three.
Gotta have a fast runner. He'll be looking at you.
Nah, do you. We'll catch up.
Do not pass it over here.
That thing coast to coast, bro. That was crazy.
So, Kane, you said
LeBron can sustain for the next two to three seasons.
Playing that position?
Playing that position, yeah.
Absolutely, playing the four.
It's about longevity.
Beautiful thing to say.
Absolutely, but they got to get somebody else.
Like, they need to get another score.
Yeah.
They need somebody so he can really go to average in 15.
Really go to, like, you can even see.
Put that thing in park.
AD is going. You can see he's like
Cool. Yeah, that's
Trying to put that thing in neutral man. Yeah, they put in the park. They're trying to put that thing in you
I'm gonna neutral just I'm trying to average 15
You get like you can see it like it's but I mean for the most part, you know
What 80s doing is is really showing everybody like?
The team that's won the championship. I mean, it's most part, you know, what AD's doing is really showing everybody. Like, the teams that's won the championship, I mean, it's big.
They're carrying it, besides Boston last year.
But, you know what I mean?
You have Giannis, went through him.
You got Jokic, went through him. So, you know, AD, it's time to come on.
Next championship is all you.
Mr. Cemetery, I see you raising your hand. is all you. Yeah. Mr. Cemetery Lair, I see you raising your hand.
Finals MVP.
Yeah.
What NBA superstar has challenged LeBron the most?
In his career?
No. The last two years.
Which have been challenging?
Who's went at him?
Yeah.
Just AD, right? I mean, KD?
Probably.
Because KD went at him?
Yeah.
When? Warriors. When?
The Warriors?
When they did?
I'm not talking about the Warriors.
I'm just saying the last two years.
The last two years, what players have went at him?
You can only say KD, really, and probably Giannis. Yeah, remember the position he's in.
KD, Giannis.
Giannis more AD, though.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Because he takes that. I forgot, yeah. He takes that. Jason Tatum. Yeah. He's in hey be honest be honest more ad though
If that's the throne defensively
Defensively who take a challenge, huh Brooks? I said no no no no no Jimmy Butler
Sometimes sometimes yes, it's some time. That's I'm saying. He's the one that's going to buckle up and give him his money. But it ain't going to be like that Lance Stevenson type of challenge or that Dylan Brooks, because I'm saying Superstar, remember?
There wasn't no challenge.
There was no challenges.
That's what I'm saying.
Those were just role players.
Probably Jimmy.
Yeah, somebody like Jimmy that's like, man, look, man, you've been wearing that crown too long, bro.
Jimmy.
I want that.
Anthony Edwards?
No, he don't guard it.
You feel him doing that?
Yeah, I can see him talking like that.
But that's what I'm saying, like guarding?
But I think the Olympics helped Tatum and AD.
I think they got confidence from just being out there
and playing all summer.
You get better.
You think Tatum?
No.
Yeah.
Zion. He got mentally something to prove, think Jason Tatum? Yeah. Zion.
He got mentally something to prove, though.
That's what I'm saying.
Zion.
Hey, folks.
I was about to prove it.
Zion.
Because that's who he's guarding when they're playing.
Because Zion be at the floor.
I've never seen him play like that.
Zion went to LeBron camp.
No, but, I mean, he goes at LeBron.
No, he goes at LeBron.
Smart man.
You go to LeBron camp, you take the picture with LeBron.
It's like, it's my hero, man. It's my hero, man. I'm not going to do that. Everybody went to LeBron. Smart man. You go to LeBron camp, you take the picture with LeBron, it's like...
It's 20 years.
It's my hero, man.
It's my hero, man.
I'm not going to do that.
Everybody went to LeBron camp.
I was doing that to LeBron camp, man.
I was at LeBron camp.
I got my picture on the wall.
Let's go back to Saturday night real quick.
Like I said, LeBron had that fourth quarter explosion.
So during LeBron's hot streak, he took issue with Rui Hachimura,
taking a bad shot, proceeded to let him have it on the bench.
No way.
Swing that motherfucker to me.
I have made Tanner Roden go through a pull-up contestant too.
Swing, swing, motherfucker.
For those who can hear, swing that MF-er to me.
Out of court, 10 straight.
You're going to take a contestant pull-up.
Y'all ain't see the play?
Nah.
Yeah, you got to see the play.
He got the play.
He tripping.
He tripping he tripped
Swing swing rip it and the say it on the bench like that after after that you got to see the play
So I gotta see you see the play you'd be like come on, right?
He whoopin he's wanting to be aggressive. What did you say? I'm in the zone, baby.
Doing a documentary right now.
Cut, cut, cut, cut, cut, cut, cut, cut.
Run that again.
We're going to run that again.
Run that again.
Gil, you understand LeBron's frustrations in that moment, though.
Missed a beheading.
All the time.
I can miss 10 in a row.
God, swing it.
I heard that a couple times.
Oh, yeah.
I heard it from Gil, Karan, Kobe. Karan was the... I heard that a lot. Swing, swing. Swing it! I done heard that a couple times. Oh, yeah, Karan got it. I heard it from Gil, Karan, Kobe.
Karan was the... I done heard that a lot.
Swing, swing.
Swing, swing.
And what was going on in your mind with Karan?
One time, Karan, we done swing it to him
because he was, like, the only one on the court.
Gil was hurt.
Antoine was hurt.
And it was all the young guys.
And Karan.
So we came together like,
we're going to do them like they did.
We're going to do him like they did you gonna do him like they do the
pass in the ball
He didn't get the ball a whole quarter one time he came to the bench like pass the ball bitch
Yes, we got him. We got him. We got him.
We got him.
We got him.
He ain't going to scare us no more.
You by yourself.
He by himself.
What was this?
You, JaVale, Andre Black.
JaVale, Andre Black.
Oh, man.
Was it credit to that thing?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
To that one.
That's crazy.
Ken, you've also said in previous shows,
in a situation like that, you may have to check somebody. Oh, yeah, I'm crazy. Ken, you've also said in previous shows in a situation like that,
you may have to check somebody.
Oh, yeah, I'm going to say something to you.
Swing and swing?
No, yeah, it wouldn't even have to be.
I ain't the one you're swinging to,
but if I know that somebody else hot,
you take that and you don't swing that motherfucker?
I ain't going to say that.
Like, when Nick had it going, like, dude,
listen, bruh.
Yeah, he didn't say that.
Randy Ford would have shot that bitch or Moe Wynn would have shot that bitch.
Get off, Taffy.
Get off.
He didn't say that.
He didn't say that.
No, that motherfucker got it going.
Hey, they can't guard him.
Don't you start guarding him.
Now, I'll tell you in a minute.
Hey, Randy used to be on that.
Randy used to be on that.
Right?
Hey, they can't guard him.
I used to tell the coaches that and everything.
They sub him out.
He on one?
Man, don't you guard him. They can't guard him. I'm to tell the coaches that and everything. They sub him out. He on one? Man, don't you guard him.
They can't guard him.
I'm high.
I'm used to that.
Yes, absolutely.
Don't you start playing defense on him?
I never understand that sometimes.
You'll see a guy go in and in three minutes he got nine points and then you sub him.
And you'll be like, why?
Because you don't like him.
Like, why?
What do you mean?
That's a direct course.
Like, the moments the stars you mean? That's a direct course.
Like, the moments the stars have, everybody has those at some point, right?
This is probably the moment and you just, you're killing it for yourself.
This might be his seven minutes and 18 points.
You just keep rolling and see what happens.
You don't sell them out.
Because it's time, because it's what it says.
Like, when Joel had 70, right?
Man, ain't no way I would have let Nick Nurse take him out of the game if I was on that team.
What?
Joel could have said, I'm tired.
I don't give a fuck if you're tired or not.
Yep.
Nick, leave his ass in.
No, bro, you got it going.
I'm going to remind you. Hey, man, look.
Are you scared? Hey, you got it going. I'm going to remind, hey, man, look, are you scared?
You got it going. You scared of greatness?
Hey, go ahead.
Hey, man. We're not going to be
here again.
Yeah, we're here
now. Why are we not taking it
to the top? And that's, if you're
not a player,
and you've never been in those situations,
you don't understand it.
We are here in the moment today
Unbelievable you get there you you know what I mean? There's no we you probably never have this chance for history again
You gotta take it. Fuck. Fuck. What is you know, what would I use up?
Sportsmanship fuck all that
I'm pretty sure we're treated when a motherfucker had a honey right he was having 58 and 70s it up
It don't work either right you got 70 we up 20 right give me 10 more
Give me 10 more when you get the 10 moment look at the clock. We got three more minutes try to get the night
Yeah, we got a minute and a half dog and I'm dead
It ever happened like the coach take y'all out or some shit like that happen
I'm playing New York Knicks
Given Mulberry nigga. Man.
Yeah, let it out.
Don't let it deter you.
I'm over here.
I'm trying to say numbers.
Give Mulberry them numbers.
He in the zone right now.
That came from.
He in the zone.
That's the McCants in me.
That's the McCants.
I was trying to say numbers.
You're not going to get me.
I'm not going to do it.
I'm not going to do it.
Wait a minute.
I'm not going to do it for you.
I'm not going to do it for you. In the to do it. Wait a minute. I'm not going to do it for you. I'm not going to do it for you.
And it's on.
Go ahead.
I'm giving them that work.
And I got 46 in 29 minutes.
In the middle of the third, Coach tells me out.
And I'm sitting here like.
What are we doing?
No, no, no, no, no, no.
Not right now.
No.
No.
Like, they talking about 81. 81. So I'm on it. He's supposed to be like, no, no, no. Not right now. No. No. Like, they talking about 81.
81, so I'm on it.
He supposed to be like, let's go for it.
And then put me back in the game.
Let's go for it.
I damn near got him fired.
No.
You should.
Straight up.
Straight up.
But he hit me with something that was even cooler.
I didn't want to put you back in because you just broke Larry Bird's record.
Oh, yeah.
What was that, coach?
He said most points in 29 minutes or less.
I would have been like, so?
I want to go back in.
I was like, I want to love this.
I mean, it was already over.
I could be as a coach trying to tell you that.
It was already over, but it was like, OK.
You made up for it.
OK, yeah, OK.
You thinking about the record?
OK, cool.
I'll take that record.
Historical.
Because Clay broke that record.
Because I'm going to tell you right now, whoever would have been at the scoring table,
I would have been like,
who you got?
I was on the floor, right?
And they would have been
at the scoring table
getting ready to serve.
I'm guaranteed,
I would have went over there
and be like,
hey, no, we're not doing it.
Talk to the coach.
You got to talk to the coach.
I would have been like,
no, we're not doing that right now.
What you doing?
No, go back and sit down
and they would have been
trotting your ass
right back to your seat.
He got to explain himself, though.
The coach got to explain himself, though.
The coach got to explain, why are you taking him out?
What are you doing?
When Melo had 33 in the court, I wish they would have, man.
When that's 60 in the guard, I wish Woody would have.
Yeah.
Crazy.
Man, you better.
So you wish a blank would?
Yeah.
Woody.
Woody. What's the blank?
Woody.
Okay.
He said said I heard
What what what uh how Devin Booker got his 72 from Earl Watson? Yeah perfect? That was how I supposed to go perfect I don't go for it. Go for you here, man
Earl was ready to fight in the tunnel go for it
You don't get those I didn't that's that you don't get those opportunities often like that
So you gotta if you that close get it I to, if you're that close, get it.
I remember, I didn't understand none of that until it happened, right?
So.
I didn't like the celebration, but okay.
Yeah, the 70s.
But like Carolina, I had.
Get over the paper.
Get over the paper.
I had eight threes.
Get over the paper.
And my last, it was my last home game that I was playing at Carolina.
And I had eight threes.
And I was about to break the record.
Five minutes to go. Oh oh and he took me out yeah you keep it eight threes I bought a shattered I had killing the whole game but I was at
eight like that's how I'm now you aside I'm giving you wasn't even no pool you
were side I'm like because one of the last one I shot went in and out and
everybody was like oh we almost got the record.
I mean, I looked over to the side, and I seen him go get him.
But he knew I had the record coming.
He knew it.
You see, there's like, when it comes to points.
I had one of those, too.
I had 18 and a quarter, and then ended up with 25.
I got 23 after he took me out
Got cold come back in and they the same
Yeah
Coach over there playing defense like a mom
Like the only like what's so funny is when it comes to scoring
It seemed like it's frowned upon if you're chasing. Yeah, but let's say the record is
You know 30 assists and you got you know, you got 28.
Yeah, let's do that.
Everyone knows what that's going to look like,
you trying to get those last two assists.
Come around, you pass it.
That person who never really just shoot it,
he going to chuck it.
Because he wants to be, he's trying to help you.
So, yeah, you over here, and everybody just,
everybody just shooting the shot so you can get your same thing with rebound if you're chasing a rebound thing
Everybody a move away for you to get the rebound
Yeah, yeah, right
Even if they're there you close it happen to you so you can get it like it seemed like there's only a few things that
You're allowed to chase without anybody frowning upon. That's true. I hate on offense a lot, boy.
Because it looks bad.
Like the other day when Boston had like 29 threes and they needed to make one.
They were shucking them.
And they went nine minutes.
Straight threes.
Hey, and missed.
Guess what team they did that on. They had 29 made threes with nine minutes to go in the fourth quarter.
And needed to make one to break the NBA record.
And did make it.
And missed nine.
And real shooters.
What's Pritchett?
What's the other?
Howser?
What's the other?
Howser.
Pritchett.
They was on the floor.
Them real shooters.
Listen, dog.
And great looks.
In and out.
Some of them.
A couple of them was forced, but they had great looks.
Thong, thong, thong, great looks. And can you bring it?
No, it didn't break.
Can you what team was that on?
The Knicks.
The Knicks.
I would have subbed my players back in.
No, Jay Taven was in there.
Oh, okay.
They started the quarter.
They started the quarter.
Remember, they was hot early.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
And they had, they didn't hit after that.
They still blew them out.
Steve, we beefing.
All right, we beefing.
No, another couple days.
Okay?
We got to see this series out.
We need two more wins.
But this is the fifth time in LeBron's career he started a season 2-0.
Previous four of his teams reached the NBA Finals.
Gil, will LeBron's streak of reaching the the finals after 2-0 starts continue this season?
Man, it's the championship year, man.
Oh, just making sure.
I'm just asking.
Champions.
Impartial show.
It's the championship year, man.
Everything's lined up, man.
Y'all not watching.
It's lined up, man.
I thought the championship year was last year.
No, it was last year.
Tune up.
It was last year.
We just didn't get there.
Just tune up.
This is the championship.
It's lined up, man.
We got, we got, we got, we got, we got, we got, we got, we got, we got, we got, we got, we got, we got, we got, we got, we got, we got, we got, we got, we got, we got, we got, we got, we got, we got, we got, we got, we got, we got, we got, we got, we got, we got, we got, we got, we got, we got, we got, we got, we got, we got, we got, we got, we got, we got, we got, we got, we got, we got, we got, we got, we got, we got, we got, we got, we got, we got, we got, we got, Your was last year was last year tuna was last year. We just didn't get there this tune up
It's lined up man. We got we got we got we got the heavens on our side
A lot but I bought some briefly to like it's okay
It's solid right right now the weakness is probably the bench.
We have no experience coming off the bench. Most of those guys are young as hell.
Put it like this.
If they did play Bronny,
he can't
do no worse than
getting beat.
The people that's coming off the bench is
I think we have
Christian, he's 20-something right 22 like we got like there's like a 50-50 a non-draft
like most of the people that's there's like non-drafted what's an a-pick so
y'all starting fire gotta play big minutes right now until we get van until
we get bando back and we get get Christian Woods back. Like, Connect is our only... Like, Connect and Gabe
is really...
Gabe, you called him?
Gabe, yeah.
No, no, no.
We threw him out.
3-0 is Gabe.
Okay.
It's Gabe when you 3-0.
3-0 Gabe.
Everybody...
Everybody need positive
for your forces.
But right now,
we're just basically...
But we beat
three good teams, though.
These are not weak teams.
Six and a half.
These are great.
These are playoff teams.
The only credit y'all get right now is the fact that J.J. Riddick is the first coach from our class
that's going to show what basketball is supposed to look like.
Now, what has happened with the Lakers since J.J. been there?
What is the movement like?
What is the spacing like?
No, no, no.
What is the actions like that's getting A.D. action,
that's getting LeBron action, that's getting Austin Reeves action?
There's a lot of things happening that J.J. has done
that I knew that he would do.
Because we, in our era, in our class, we studied the game to the point where we look back and it's like,
why they not doing this out there?
Why they not doing these simple actions?
These are easy buckets to get.
Why he not doing that?
He put AD and LeBron and said, look, we're going to do all the easy shit.
That's going to get us easy buckets to put us in front of teams early.
And we're going to close them out.
Now, they don't got a bench
to sustain that, so it's going to look good early.
My problem is
if they don't bring nobody in to sustain it,
it's going to crumble late.
But it's going to look good the whole way there
because there's not going to be nothing that nobody can do
with that. Guarding that type of action,
they don't got no defense for that.
What makes the bench look like we're fine
is because we're running old school plays for the most part.
So it's like no different than the Bulls, right?
You got Scottie and Jordan.
You take them off, then you're like, what is this?
But because they're playing offense, everybody's moving around.
Those guys look like they're being active versus you got three
guys who really ain't just
standing there. Now it becomes a lot harder.
But now that dribble handoff, you backdoor
and you coming up, you sending the pick, you flaring.
Even if you're decoying,
those decoys look more important now.
Yeah, facts. You know what's been
truly impressive about J.J. Redick is
his preparation. He's
endeared himself to Lakers fans in his rookie coaching season.
The white man get all the credit on this show.
Sellout brothers on the back of his finger show.
One, two, three.
I like the white man.
You talking to me?
Yes.
Do you know who owns this company?
If it wasn't for J.J., we would be here.
Do you want Joe Tech in the mail?
I will whisper in her ear and I will tell her, If it wasn't for JJ, If it wasn't for JJ, If it wasn't for JJ, If it wasn't for JJ, If it wasn't for JJ, If it wasn't for JJ, If it wasn't for JJ, If it wasn't for JJ, If it wasn't for JJ, If it wasn't for JJ, If it wasn't for JJ, If it wasn't for JJ, If it wasn't for JJ, If it wasn't for JJ, If it wasn't for JJ, If it wasn't for JJ, If it wasn't for JJ, If it wasn't for JJ, If it wasn't for JJ, If it wasn't for JJ, If it wasn't for JJ, If it wasn't for JJ, If it wasn't for JJ, If it wasn't for JJ, If it wasn't for JJ, If it wasn't for JJ, If it wasn't for JJ, If it wasn't for JJ, If it wasn't for JJ, If it wasn't for JJ, If it wasn't for JJ, If it wasn't for JJ, If it wasn't for JJ, If it wasn't for JJ, If it wasn't for JJ, If it wasn't for JJ, If it wasn't for JJ, If it wasn't for JJ, If it wasn't for JJ, If it wasn't for JJ, If it wasn't for JJ, If it wasn't for JJ, If it wasn't for JJ, If it wasn't for JJ, If it wasn't for JJ, If it wasn't for JJ, If it wasn't for JJ, Also give Bronny his credit. Bronny's aura has been instrumental. Fake damn, but not.
Revitalizing locker room, bringing a youthful energy, exuberance to it.
But this weekend, NBA legend Baron Davis spotted J.J. Redick putting in work in an unusual location.
So Baron tweeted, just ran into J.J. Redick at the car wash.
He had the laptop watching film.
Players coach, Lakers in great hands.
Hasht hashtag dedication.
Shout out BD joining the Draymond Green Show.
So Gil, you actually saw JJ too.
Yeah.
And you tweeted this.
I just saw JJ Redick at the movies watching Venom, but he was actually on his laptop watching the Suns film.
Hashtag 2025, Laker chip.
So, a lot of people call Cap on your tweet, Gil.
But we actually have some evidence to support your claim,
along with other places Reddit has been spotted watching film.
So, there he is at Venom.
Turned up getting the film in.
Oh,
at the Dodgers game.
Wasn't watching Freddie Freeman's
walk-off grand slam.
Oh, and there he is
at the 2025
Lakers championship.
He's still going to be
watching film.
Yeah.
But,
in all seriousness,
I read it confirmed
he was watching
King's defensive film
at the car wash
while acknowledging he doesn't normally watch film in public,
but had to do so because of the quick turnaround.
Reddick said in between his kids' two basketball games,
he took the family's three cars to get washed at the spot next to the gym,
and that's when he was watching the film.
So first and foremost, what's the weirdest place that you guys have watched game film?
Because I already know you guys are.
Oh, watching game film? Because I already know you guys are... Oh,
watching game film?
Um... I don't know. Shit, probably just...
He never watched no game film. Next to the work.
He never watched no game film.
Student analysis?
You're going to steal my answer.
You are me today.
You are me today.
So this is...
It's watching game film,
but it's not watching it.
Like when we're watching games,
we'll watch,
like we,
we've been said on this couch before.
We're not watching games just to enjoy the game.
We are critiquing the game,
plays,
movements.
So for me,
I used to go to the strip club
and sit there and watch the game.
Locked in?
Oh, people want to come.
Relax.
Relax.
I'm not here for that.
I'm not here.
I'm working.
It's a write-off.
You can sit down, but don't block the TV.
Oh, yeah, yeah.
No, Cleveland playoffs.
When we was playing Cleveland, it's Cleveland.
We were playing playoffs, tied at a hotel, strip club.
Yeah. For real?
Yeah!
It was the one right by the arena?
Yeah, watching the edits.
Just, ah.
Hotel, mall, back side of the arena.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. The whole—
Disgusting.
That's what I said, it was just, like, you just gotta get out.
And you gotta get out of the room, get out of the hotel,
just everybody go to the strip club. Like, all right. Shit, I of the room, get out of the hotel. I'm about to go to strip club.
I'm like, alright.
Shit, I'm bringing a laptop.
Just watching the plays.
Damn.
You respect JJ for doing it?
Why did he decide that people come to the crib like you do here to get the car wash?
Car wash is fun.
There's a drive-thru car wash.
I mean, you drive through and you just sit in.
I hope it's like the wash with Snoop and Dr. Dre.
I mean, the humanity it's like the wash with Snoop and Dr. Dre. I mean,
the humanity today is
he's human.
Like,
he do what
we all do.
Hey, man,
he ain't got no
chauffeur to
do it.
He's got to be
a man still.
He said,
but the convenience,
like,
to your point,
yes,
he could have went
to wherever he was
going to the
practice facility.
They'll wash it at the arena.
Wherever you want it to be watched at.
I'm pretty sure if he wanted that.
He probably likes going to the car wash, sitting there.
It's therapeutic.
I do. I do a lot.
You like going to the car wash?
Sometimes when I'm out, I do both.
I do both.
You got a spot on my car.
Let me ask you this. Say you're at your son's game or something or like soccer practice or something, right?
You got your ball in the back.
You see a little court.
Are you going to get out and shoot?
You going to get out?
You going to get out of the car, take your ball, go shoot at the court?
I ain't got no ball in my car.
I got some golf clubs.
Are your kids over there playing soccer?
Soccer?
I'm at their game.
Like if you got a little time, like a little, you could just chill in the car or whatever. You take the Oh, no. I'm at the game. Like, if you got a little time,
like, you could just chill in the car or whatever.
You take the ball, go out there,
and just shoot around.
Yeah, when the kids play soccer,
I'll be on the court with one of them
when we play basketball.
Yeah, I like that.
It depends.
I don't think none of my kids ever play soccer.
That's why.
They never play basketball either.
I forgot you was a guy, Dad, too, for nice. You keep talking about your guy, son. Oh, yeah, nice gonna be soccer. That's why. They never played basketball either. I forgot you was a goddad, too, for nice.

Let's move it up to the Bay.
Warriors were riding high into their home opener against the Clippers Sunday night
with back-to-back blowout wins on the road against the Blazers and Jazz
to start the season, but suffered a scary moment.
Hold on.
Somebody wrote in the chat.
Stop, man.

So don't let them do that to you, nigga.
They trying to get you.
He was from a gun, though.
Yeah, he getting...
Letting the people shoot that in his mouth.
He was from a gun.
He was from a gun. I'm a gun though
Like this
Taking shots in the mouth
You gotta sit there and wait on it or is that so I don't like for a while? I don't like the way y'all talking right now.
I don't like the way it sounds.
It just sounds.
That's crazy.
I have my moment.
I have my moment.
You always try to get me with you.
You always try to get me with you.
Hey, man.
Hey, man.

Yeah, same shot.
They was in the same shot.
Oh, my god. Yes. All the same shot. Oh, my God.
Anyway...
That's crazy. So you feel better?
Yeah, I feel better. Thank y'all. Okay.
Shit, I was just trying to get some new sponsors.
That's the move.
They said Revolt was looking for new shows.
No more!
No more, man.
No more. No more.
No more. You want some after more. No more. No more.
He wants him out the dark.
I was taking him for the team.
No more.
No more.
No, Denny.
Let's talk about the Warriors.
The Warriors started Season 2-0 with blowout wins over the Blazers and Jazz on the road.
He's tripping, man.
But the Warriors suffered a scary moment late in their game.
Sunday night, their homeowner gets the Clippers.
Clippers.
The Cliffers.
The Cliffers. With Steph Curry left the Clippers. The Clifford. The Clifford.
With Steph Curry left the court limping.
So after tweaking his left ankle in the third quarter, Curry returned in the game in the fourth quarter.
Re-aggravated it on this play.
Left the game.
Limping off.
Ooh.
Ooh. So'll get older.
Ooh.
So Steph has battled ankle injuries throughout his career,
but called the latest one moderate.
Had an MRI last night.
I didn't see it.
Latest update from Shams this morning.
Says Curry has a left perineal strain and will be re-evaluated on Friday.
So how concerned should Warriors be with Steph's ankle injury this early in the season?
Like I mentioned,
we're 2-0
loss of the Clippers
in their home opener.
Now 2-1.
Steph re-evaluated
on Friday.
He should be out
at least for the next
few games.
It's early in the season
so it's a little time
to panic.
Hopefully it's not that bad.
It didn't look like
it went too far.
But someone who has
history of ankle problems is a small concern.
But like I said, it didn't go all the way over.
So it's a good thing.
Hopefully he bounces back soon.
Yeah, I don't think he's concerned.
Probably more just frustrated because this is the beginning of the season.
You know you want to get off to a good start and you know depending on how many games he misses you know this thing
can go south real fast um it's just that much harder for him personally so um it's probably
just more frustration than it is a real scare i mean it's been a minute since he's really had
the ankle and usually when he retweaks it,
he's back, you know, within one, two games, so.
He had the double wide ankle braces on.
Man, he the only one that can get away with that.
That rocks them big ass ankle braces.
You don't never see nobody else with those.
Those are his ankles.
Those are his actual ankles.
Those ain't braces.
By any means. Those are his ankles now. They his actual ankles. Those ain't braces. By the way,
those are his ankles. But Schumer,
they've been holding him up
for years.
He can fly and everything.
And he be moving.
Yeah, they make his shoes
specifically for like...
He got a little toss right there.
But that's what I'm saying.
Why?
They make his shoes for that.
Why didn't he just like...
I mean, it's, you know,
he's already done,
had a successful career,
but when you're talking
about ankles, right, you need flexibility in them, right?
See, that was the problem.
See, I had the same thing.
Like, we went to Dr. Anderson in Charlotte, and it was too loose.
Oh, yours was too loose?
Ankle's too loose.
So we go easy.
Yeah.
Go easy.
Like, just anything, just go easy.
So mine got to the point where all my ligaments was real loose. Oh, so you had to... Yeah, you anything, just go easy. So mine got to the point
where all my ligaments
was real loose.
Oh,
so you had to
go tighten it.
So my,
so when I,
so I hated ankle braces
so I had a special tape job
that I used to get.
Tape?
So when I went
to certain places,
like when I went to Milwaukee
and like after New York
when I was,
after the surgery
and I was getting taped,
dude,
like yo,
like how?
Like basically basically they putting
small like a soft cast on me with tape but it's like the brown real thick and so it's like double layer that regular stirrups and and I'm I had to get used to playing like that but so
Steph just you like he decided to use braces so like like, yeah, but I get like, so your bone,
it's in your socket like this,
and it's just moving around at times.
So when he used to roll it,
it's easy for him to roll his ankle.
It's supposed to be tight, right?
Yeah, see, I came from track, so we, you know,
we used to just stretch like this half the time.
So we're always, you know, sitting here like this,
you know, doing like, walking around the track like that. So whenever I'm playing, you know, sitting here like this, you know, doing like walking around the track like that.
So whenever I'm playing, my ankle,
I'm usually on the side of my ankle.
That's why you was wearing low tops.
Low tops.
You could wear low tops because you had strong ankles.
But you get weak ankles from wearing ankle braces.
It makes your ankles weaker.
And that's what I was told when I had a third degree
ankle sprain and I was wearing an Air Cast back in the day when it had the little, you can blow it up. Absolutely. And that's what I was told when I had a third degree ankle sprain and I was wearing
an Air Cast back in the day when it had the little, you can blow it up.
Everybody taped in this crew?
Y'all all taped?
No.
But in college we had to, so what Richard Jefferson used to do was they'd put the tape
on and then we would just cut it off and then just keep the top part off and then, so it
looked like it and I remember the trainer said i hate it if you twist your ankle if you twist your ankle and we we decide when we have
to take it off that uh yeah it wasn't mandatory i'll take the throw out the lead though oh you
did yeah i didn't i couldn't yeah then like all it takes like so i was getting like small ankles
like little twist here little twist there you keep playing it ain't nothing like little twist here, little twist there. You keep playing. It ain't nothing. Little twist here, little twist there.
You keep playing.

And I remember when I talked to the track coach, I was like,
so what do you do now?
And he was like, yeah, you got to train four more years
before the next Olympics.
I said, you got to be broke for four more years?
You know, you don't know nothing else about, like, circuits
and stuff like that.
All you know is, as a track, the Olympics.
So I'm like, oh, no, I can't be broke for four more years.
I quit.
And then I ran my last race, and then went straight
and focused only on basketball.

Hey, Gil, you had a goatee as a sophomore?
All right.
Hey, Gil, you had a goatee when you was in high school?
Let's keep this thing moving.
Since the theme for today is Larry's Cemetery,
here are some spooky facts
about cemeteries around the country.
So Sleepy Hollow Cemetery in Sleepy Hollow,
New York is known for its connection to Washington
Irving's The Legend of Sleepy Hollow.
Cemetery is said to be haunted by the Headless Horseman.
Some visitors claim to have seen a ghostly figure
riding through the cemetery, searching for his lost head.
Shots. Drink them shots.
It's a little like pee.
Hey, I know you had that situation later.
Yeah, man. You got some clean.
What is it? Some clean.
And it has the poison symbol on it.
I don't know if I should...
That's the glass. Y'all didn't put no juice in there or nothing. Poison symbol on it. I don't know if I should.
That's the glass.
Y'all didn't put no juice in there or nothing.
That was just straight alcohol. The glass is yellow.
The glass is yellow.
Continuing on.
At Arlington National Cemetery in Virginia,
visitors reported seeing the ghostly figures of soldiers
wandering the grounds,
especially near the tomb of the unknown soldier,
having experienced a sudden chill.
Fuck.
Yeah, turn up.
Whoo!
Tell that shot to move around.
Move around in that system.
So at the Arlington National Cemetery in Virginia,
some visitors have experienced a sudden chill,
claiming to hear faint whispers of conversations from long ago.
And then, of course, there's Larry Cemetery, where visitors report seeing a shadowy figure
wearing a big cap roaming around the grounds late at night asking, is it obvious, and telling
them to move around.
So rumors are there is a plot reserved for a special guest in the near future.

Chad, we need you to go to Stephen A's show. Everybody think they worthy of you. I like how Stephen A did that. to it. I'm with it I just don't want to ruffle too many fellas everybody go to Stephen a show everybody
Like I Stephen they did that that's what I say, right? He made me like okay
That's what I was looking at. I'm looking at it. I try to come back to our side. No, cuz he only his platform
He's on his platform. So he's platform. He's a human. Yeah
There he's a robot. Great. Great.
But just for that moment,
that was like,
cool.
But that's why I said
he became smarter,
him,
Shannon,
and because
you are,
you're under Disney
on your platform.
Woo-hoo.
So when we go at you
from the public standpoint,
you're handicapped
by words.
So that means
I can use whatever
vocabulary I can as long as
YouTube approves.
Right. Right? So I can
call you whatever I want to call you
and you got to play under this.
You got to play with your hands, Ty. So you automatically
lose in that standpoint.
So the fact that he understood that and came
down, right? I've seen him go
at... But sometimes, you know,
he's going to go at... Or that motherfucker dodged and he can't swing
back. What was his name?
Nah, he went at...
Can't get me, can't get me.
What was his name?
All right. Matrix.
Jason Whitlock. When he went at
Jason Whitlock, I was like,
okay. Oh, no, he ran about
the people. No, no, no, but the... He said it. Called this preacher. It was like, okay. Oh, no, he ran it by the people. No, no, no.
He said it.
Call this preacher.
It was on his platform. I'm going to address him and invite some words and start it off.
You fat, like, whoa.
Okay, Tupac.
You know what I mean?
Because somebody like Jason is on his own platform and he don't have no rules.
The fact he acknowledged it and, like, you know,
sometimes you let shit just go over.
It's going to go over.
People send shots at you.
Just let it die out.
Let it die out.
You want to keep it going.
We have no rules on Gilderator.
He understands entertainment.
He understands entertainment.
Stephen A., we welcome the challenge.

Now, Nick, you are in the mix, too.
Oh, shit.
I will be merely hosting, but Stephen, we appreciate you accepting the offer.
Look forward to having you in the arena in the near future.
But let's keep this thing moving.
So on Sunday, the Heat unveiled the Dwayne Wade statue
outside the Casey Center as part of a two-day ceremony
honoring the Hall of Famer and three-time champion.
Why are we doing this?
In his time with The Heat,
Wade transformed Dade County into Wade County
and was honored with the first statue in franchise history.
That's crazy.
The statue features Wade in his iconic pose after hitting a game-winning buzzer beater
back in 2009.
So during the ceremony, D-Wade asked the question many were wondering after seeing the statue.
That's crazy.
I can't believe that.
Who is that guy?
Who is that guy?
Who is that guy? Who is that guy?
A lot of people were saying,
you know, it's not, D-Way got this beautiful moment, and we rock with D-Way.
We love D-Way here in the arena.
But, are you showing
with D-Way? Is with the sculptors
in? I don't know.
Either way, internet never missed
an opportunity to get them jokes off,
and that they did.
Yep.
Go ahead.
So, they put them over the infamous log.
Yeah.
Damn.
That's, yes.
Throw the damn towel.
Throw the damn towel.
Throw in the damn towel.
Lil Morpheus action.
That's the one.
That took all your money?
Yeah.
That took all your money? Yeah.
That took all your money. Divorce?
You crying?
Somebody needs to be fined for this.
Who needs to be fined for this from our very own Dreamcast?
According to reports, Wade was active in the design process for the statue, visiting the sculptor several times throughout the process.
These same sculptors made the Kobe statue as well.
We're working on both at the same time.
Cap.
Can't be. Can't be. both at the same time. KB. KB. KB.
KB.
They got Kobe face.
No, no, no, no.
I can believe the same sculpture did it
because they botched that one,
which we didn't, as Laker fans,
we didn't care because the people's names
you messed up were irrelevant, right?
It was a bunch of Toronto Raptors
and who give a fuck about their names,
so we didn't really care, you know that you mess those names up, but
They fucking up they fucking up in the front. So I'm actually in the back
Who does the Hall of Fame statues for
Why not just go find look the best one they've been doing this shit forever crazy. They've mastered this shit facts
Go find them, please
Whoever doing this shit from these teams
Go find the people doing all the fame status for the NFL man
The Lakers the only team they get it right facts like the fake
Right, how do you mess the fit like you got you got the Wayne Wade jersey on with Thanos' chin.
Like, come on, man.
He approved of it.
Oh, no, he didn't approve of that.
Yeah, at least let him see it before.
He probably said in the beginning of it
when he had the jersey.
Ain't no damn way he seen the face part.
He said, I need to pick the chin.
He picked that pose.
So they asked, what pose you want?
He picked that.
Yeah, I picked the pose.
And they probably had this part of it. Didn't have the head, because there's no way he look at us. That's me. That's me
When it was finished listen come come I want you to see this before anybody else to come
Bruh Pat Riley they can't redo that. What I'm saying is and you have it back you can yes
They just mess with know what I'm saying You can send it back. You can? Yes. You have to. If it ain't no pass, send it back.
They just messing with people.
Send it back, y'all.
How do you, I'm sorry, but how do you look at that and say,
yeah, this is it?
Right here.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
This is what it's like.
Oh, that's perfect.
We going to Ville this week.
Yeah, yeah, let's invite all the family and friends.
And ask them.
I know his kids are like, Dad, that don't look like...
I said, where yours at?
Who the fuck is that?
Look at my...
Give him the $100,
but he gonna stay.
That is crazy.
Dad, that don't look like you.
There was a video of him
and Zaire looking at the statue,
and some inferred that
just the look that was shared
may have applied, but...
It's a grateful moment.
We love D-Wade.
Hall of Fame statue.
You know what?
I don't care what it looks like.
That's legendary.
As long as it's up there.
It's up there.
I want to pass it and I see it.
He's ugly.
He's uglier than I am, but I'm cool with it.
That's D-Wade, though.
That's one way to go about it.
He's uglier than me, but I'm cool.
That's flash.
But you would rather it be a pic.
Exactly who you are. No, no, flash. That's flash. But you would rather it depict exactly who you are.
No, no, no.
I get it.
Listen, just because you, as a kid growing up,
and the first statue we seen was the Michael Jordan statue, right?
So we didn't dream of, oh, I need a statue outside.
So to have one for the work you did on a court to say we're gonna
put this out there so the future knows who you are to us is an important part.
Oh and they saying thank you. But the problem is you can't let
you can't let the ex-wife design the face. No. The only way it look like that is the ex-wife is like,
you know what? Yeah, yeah.
No, no, no, no, no, give him that chin.
Give him big chin.
Put his eyes this way.
Put his mouth open,
because that's what he gonna look like
when he see this shit.
What is that?
What is that?
Oh!
Hong-tai.
I ain't never seen no,
no Hong-tai.
Hong-tai? That's what he look like there. Hong-tai. Oh, oh. I ain't never seen no one with my new hog tie.
Hog tie.
He like said, hog tie.
And as previously mentioned, I know she was in there saying like, yes, got him, got him.
You like that?
We got nothing but love and respect for D. Wade.
Amazing career, three chips.
I thought it was Brian.
We just got an issue with the sculpture and we're always going to share our opinions
how we see fit here on Gills Arena.
I thought Brian got it.
They just need to stop it.
Like, listen, just when you're done with it,
let the person see it now.
Exactly, man.
Just let them see it so they can give you, like,
yeah, come on.
Before you unveil it.
Before you unveil it.
And have the cameras in my face,
and I got to put this face on.
That part.
Because I can give you my... Behind closed doors, I can tell you honestly how I feel, like, yeah, no, that ainil it. And have the cameras in my face and I got to put this face on. That part. Because I can pretend.
Behind closed doors,
I can tell you honestly
how I feel.
Like, yeah, no, that ain't it.
Somebody in this circle
had to, like...
Somebody had to see it.
Like, that's a no.
They're not showing
these people.
No, I'm talking about after.
Like, what do you say?
Do you be mad
that they made a statue
that don't look like you?
Or do you just accept it?
Now, you wait, you wait,
you wait, let it calm down
until you make your...
Yeah, but my...
So, like, yes, but my thing is...
They could be like, no, fuck it.
How many people works at the factory where it was made?
How many people seen this thing before the public?
Yeah, that's the question.
And then approved of it.
Right.
And was like, ooh.
Really sat there and was like...
This is it.
Yeah, this is it.
Like you said with Pat Riley.
People saw it before it got to Pat now.
Uh-huh.

Facts.
That is fucked up.
But he got through it.
You know what I mean?
Yeah, we didn't do it.
We just got to talk about it.
We're not the only ones.
As soon as I saw the statue, I know the internet was going to do it.
But is he the first one with a statue of him?
First?
He's playing with the statue.
It's Wade County.
They got to do it.
I know what I'm saying.
It's Miami.
You got to have it right.

They got him with the fat chin.
You got A.I.
Small. A.I. Little Ant-Man. He got AI small. AI little ant man.

Damn, my knees hurt.
All right.
There's only one question he got to ask.
Just one question, Nick.
Am I really gay?
I don't want to hit you.
He might not get the answer he wants.
So I get one question?
Yeah, Nick let you answer. As many as you want.
Yeah, he is a tough...
I want to know...
Will the Lakers win a championship this year?
Will Brownies score more than...
30 points this year?
Will Brownies score more than 30 points this year?
Damn.
In a game, one game. more than 30 points this year. In the game. One game.
More than 30 points?
30 plus.
Yes, but not towards the end of the season, I don't feel.
Mm.
Okay.
You're good.
Do my woman love me?
Because she's been taking all my money for a long time, so I just want to make sure
it's more than love.
No, I feel she does love more than love. No, she...
I feel she does love you.
Okay.
I feel she does love you.
And the thing is,
you're a very loyal person.
You're a good,
you're an honest person,
and she is very lucky
to have you.
You know what?
No, stop!
That's probably the best thing
I ever did.
She's very lucky to have you.
I hope you see it.
I hope you...
You see it?
She needs to appreciate you
a little bit more, though.
Let's both be honest.
I knew you was the one God sent for me today.
I knew it.
God sent this.
You're a good person.
You're a loyal person.
And I'm going to be very honest.
When people need help, you're always there to help them.
Always.
Appreciate you.
God has blessed you in so many ways.
You know that.
Yeah.
But it's okay for you to take a little time off for you.
That's okay to do.
You know that, right?
Yeah.
It's hard, though, sometimes.
I'm trying to be real because they're looking at me.
I know they do.
They don't like this energy you're giving me.
I've been dealing with that all my life.
Okay, your persona, you want to act crazy.
You have to show them that, you them that you're the fun guy.
But no one realizes how sensitive you truly are.
No one knows how deep down
what you've been through.
And no one realizes how good
of a person you truly are.
And she is lucky to have you.
Remember that. Not the opposite way around.
I don't want no more questions.
Thank you.
Good job, Nick.
Thank you so much Good job, Nick. No, for real.
Thank you so much.
Nice meeting you.
Seriously.
Oh, validated.
Oh, man.
Validated.

This is probably
the best moment
I had on this show.
My turn?
No, no.
You look like you've been
doing some push-ups, man.
I got buff over the weekend.

about Nick's reading?

Her mouth is God guy ears, boy.
This is Larry Cemetery.
Overshot McKenzie.
You're going to receive a live palm reading.
You can bring your work with you if you feel so inclined.
Or work on the couch.
If you want to go solo dolo.

Work number two.
All right, you ready?
Mm-hmm.
All right.
Now, before we get started, what is your name and date of birth?
Or just your name, because I know privacy maybe.
Which name?
The name you was born with.
Rashad.
A little energy over there.
Dance.
Rashad, it shows here that you're a very old soul.
Do you understand what recarnation is?
Mm-hmm.
You've been recarnated over a dozen times.
Mm-hmm.
The past couple of years,
you found yourself very strong spiritually.
The past few years, you've grown
to just finally be at peace,
finally find within yourself.
Next year is going to be a very big year for you.
Next year is going to be a very big year for you. Next year is going to be
a big year financially,
emotionally, spiritually,
but also within love
and relationship.
I do see some,
there's going to be,
are you trying to start
your own business
or invest in something
right now?
It's going to be
very successful.
Do you mind if I ask what it is? It's a mental health foundation. It's going to be very successful.
I feel it's going to help a lot of people, but also bring you a lot of peace, a lot of joy. And
I feel like this is what your, your work on this world was not to, you know, be an NBA player or do
this or be an icon. You were here to help people. God has given you all this so you can give back.
And I feel you are on the right path of all of this.
Now, what questions do you have?
How long am I going to be single for?
You sure we should talk about that on the air
or should we go one-on-one separately?
On the air.
We are here now.
You need to be here for heaven.
I see next year as someone coming into your life.
I see finally, let's be honest,
you haven't had the best of luck when it comes to love,
but next year I finally
feel you finding that individual.
Finding that person. You had to go
through on this spiritual journey
because you weren't ready for this person.
She's been waiting for you though. you weren't you had a lot of healing
that needed to happen next year is the year you finally having that peace
finally connecting with your true flame the last question is is she some work or
not no sorry ladies sorry to disappoint, but it's not from work. Okay.
That ain't what he meant.
That ain't what he meant.
Thank you.
Thank you, guys. You're going to get a real one.
Ah, yes.
No work from work, y'all.
Let's go, Gilbert.
Go time.
Last but not least, we have our show's namesake, Gilbert Arenas.
Oh, Lord. I hope it's namesake, Gilbert Arenas. Okay.
Oh, Lord.
I hope it's some good news.
Up to the stage.
I hope you don't go to jail and all that shit she say.

Oh.
No, I'm kidding.
Gil, what is your first and last name?
First and last name?
Mm-hmm.
Gilberto Rinas.
Gil, it shows you have a very long and a very successful life.
I see you living over 87 years old.
Growing up for you, you went through a lot of trials and a lot of tribulations.
But these trials and tribulations, they made you stronger.
They made you better.
This year has been a very powerful year for you.
Actually, the past three years have been very powerful for you.
You've grown a lot as a person, emotionally, mentally, spiritually.
And I do have to say this.
I know before we were going to talk about love, but you met your soulmate.
You met the person you're supposed to be with.
How long have you two been together?
My dog?
Oh.
A year and some change.
This woman is perfect for you.
You met your other half.
She made you a better man.
And now it's time for you to just live your happily ever after. I have to tell you that.
I do see that there is going to be a few investments that are coming in.
Not next year.
Next year is not a good year for investing.
2026, I do see there's going to be some opportunities.
I do want you to take those opportunities, though.
Now, what questions do you have?
Okay, before I get married, I got one task.
What's my chances of, uh,
having a sexual relation with, uh,
Nick Young's girlfriend?
Who?
He said mine?
No, what?
