Starting point is 00:25:56 Hey, man, us together champs, baby. Man. Big three season tipped off in Oakland last weekend. Swaggy P, you were in the building as your enemy squad looks to defend their 2023 championship. This is your first season as a full-time head coach, correct? Yeah. Okay, okay. So, before the game, you were asked about being an NBA team.

Starting point is 00:26:16 Wait, wait. What'd you just say? It's his first season as a full-time head coach. Oh, assistant coach, yeah. This year. This season. Oh, okay. This season will be your first full season.

Starting point is 00:26:23 You're the owner, man. You're a GM. We get it. We wouldn't be here without you. So, before the game, you were asked about being an NBA champion, a Big 3 champ, and had this to say. You see that? What do you have to say to the haters who are doubting your coaching

Starting point is 00:26:37 abilities? Now you have your first championship. You know, I let my ring speak for itself, you know. I won in the NBA. I won in the Big three, you know, I'm just a winner in life So nigga as you said you're a winner in life, what is the key to being a winner in life? Man for all my people out there It takes you know takes believing in yourself it takes having the vets around you that just don't give a fuck.

Starting point is 00:27:09 The vets that show you the life. I had a vet that showed me not just on the court but off the court. He showed me how the women work, how clubs work, what they're doing in the summertime. You got to put the work in the summertime, on the court and off the court. You got to put the work in. If you put the work in, in the work, outside the court, the work helps your legs grow.

Starting point is 00:27:36 Preach. That's what happens. Preach. Snap on that, motherfucker, man. That is the key. Work the work and let the work work out, God damn it. And you will win.

Starting point is 00:27:47 Mr. Championship Charles, Mr. Cemetery Larry, Righteous Rashad. What is the key to being a winner in life? The key to being a winner in life? Life. Life be lifin', boy. Man, life be lifin'. Life be lifin'.

Starting point is 00:28:03 You got to persevere through this life. Life struggles. Unless when the work don't be lifin', boy. Man, life be lifin'. Life be lifin'. You got to persevere through this life. Life struggles. Unless you're in the work, don't be workin'. You get stuck on that motherfuckin' slave ship. You know what I'm sayin'? You get stuck on that bitch. Life be lifin'. Man, you're trying to figure out how this motherfucker moving and not moving and shit.

Starting point is 00:28:20 But then you just win. You just happen to figure it out. You know what I'm sayin'? Get the right motherfuckers on your team. Pass you the rock. They know you it out. You know what I'm saying? Get the right motherfuckers on your team, pass you the rock, they know you the talent. Yeah. Sam, we believe in you. This might be the most unserious episode

Starting point is 00:28:32 of Bill's Arena. Just believe in you, man. Woof, woof. Shit. But Chad, it's summertime. Ain't no more NBA basketball. We still got WNBA, but... So we're going to keep this thing moving.

Starting point is 00:28:42 See, he just... You can't be doing that while he be drinking this shit. He ready to throw that shit. Ready to hate. He's ready to hate. Gil, what is the key to being a winner in life? Very successful man. You're a big three champion.

Starting point is 00:28:54 That's mindset. I think everyone equates winning in life to tangible things. It's just having a winning spirit and a winning work ethic, right? It's not about, as long as you're doing what it takes to win, winning comes later. That's anything, you know, YouTubing, podcasting, at your job, right?

Starting point is 00:29:22 You know, you can't think about where you're at now. Just, I think we all want to be validated when we're doing something today, right? Knowing that, you know, you just keep doing what you're doing because you like the work ethic, right? It's your work ethic.

Starting point is 00:29:42 And then that always gets seen at the end of the day right that's just how it works right no matter if i'm you know what i mean like 200 you know i mean i came into the league it was 300 some thousand and i was taught that like you got six months right no matter what you're doing in the six months it will pay for itself at the end of the season. So when people say you're underpaid, nah, I was paid what I was worth then. In another 30 days when the summer hits,

Starting point is 00:30:14 I'm gonna get paid for what I did. And then what I do in those next six years, I get paid for that, right? And that's just how it is. The longevity in life, man, like on the serious deal. For real. You know, success is perseverance. How you can get through it, how you can stay the course,

Starting point is 00:30:33 cannot let anything distract you. Surviving, shit, them hard hits come from all over the place. Especially when you're talking about the chicks, you're talking about the family, you're talking about the shame of not reaching your goals, and people not betting on you, you want them to bet on you. It's like success comes from just staying in the trenches.

Starting point is 00:30:52 Even if ain't nobody else with you, you just know that the goal is the goal. The vision is the vision. The moment you quit, you fuck it up. Can't blame nobody if you quit. So, shit, key to life and success inside of that is keep going. Man, all this brother knowledge shit.

Starting point is 00:31:11 So, Gil's a lot of people in the chat right now saying Gil's never won anything. Gil isn't a champion. But I'm looking at your hand right now. You have a big three championship race. How can that be possible? I'm looking at a Big 3 champion, a champion

Starting point is 00:31:25 life purveyor of your favorite basketball podcast. YouTube champion. Social media champion. When we started this pod they said we wasn't going to be shit. No chill. Social media champion. Here we are. They think I'm viral all the time because I'm stupid

Starting point is 00:31:41 or I just feel I know what's working and I know what you're going to bite on. I mean, you have to be talented at that. Oh, man. I don't know how to tell you, sir. I mean, they sit here watching two lives. Yeah, you did go three hours live during Game 5 of the NBA Finals. I'm just saying, they're watching two lives. Show me someone else who's doing it.

Starting point is 00:32:02 Are they even capable? Have they even thought about it? Right. Nah. Get your weight up, lady. That's why they talk. We are on point with the sound effects today. I'm just saying. All right, so rest assured we're just going to talk Lakers.

Starting point is 00:32:18 So let's get into it. All Lakers all the time. No, I'm just kidding. But do you want to know on a serious note, obviously big threes give you guys the opportunity to extend your careers all the time. No, I'm just kidding. But do you want to know on a serious note, obviously big threes give you guys opportunity to extend your careers beyond the NBA, keep playing the game that you love, but how does playing in the big three

Starting point is 00:32:32 compare to playing in the league? Oh, man, for me, I think it's just, I feel like it's just more eyes on you when you're playing. It's like when you're going out there, you don't know whether to play cool or go hard you don't want to act like you you know this is because people think once you're in the big three your career is pretty much over so you want to be like oh man i'm just playing in this just to play in it but i feel like if you find that balance and it's getting very competitive everybody play

Starting point is 00:33:01 hard you're going to going up against some people that's going to try to embarrass you. Even when Javi played with McCantsin, how they started off, even from them, looking back at that team, that's probably one of the best teams assembled in the Big 3. For real. For real, for real.

Starting point is 00:33:20 He's taking that shit serious. Yeah. Taking it serious. People may watch this as a joke, but I know y'all are competitive. So I know it gets feisty on those courts. On that second, third year, it got real nasty when it came to competitiveness because the guys who came in, like when Nick and Gil came in, they was waiting for it to be something. It was like a joke, but not really because we was still out there really playing.

Starting point is 00:33:45 But it was like, man, is it really, because we were still out there really playing. But it was like, man, is it really? Y'all serious out there? I think it came to a couple more games. And it was like, okay, Amari out there and Nate out there and Andre Eminem out there killing and Rashard Lewis and Tino and Corey. So then after that, it was just kind of like, well, you know, we watched Chauncey and A.I. go down, and then Kenyon wasn't playing, and J.O. wasn't playing. So a certain age limit, it got to a point where it was like, if you come out here, you that age, we ain't really expecting nothing.

Starting point is 00:34:16 But y'all young niggas, y'all can get back into it. Y'all might have a chance to get back in the league if you play good. So that competitiveness kicked in. It's a great opportunity i think just like you said for visibility yeah get back out there it's more it's it's more taxing than you actually think oh yeah right it's a very different game you have to be mentally in tune man physically in tune because what happens is this let's say i shoot the ball i normally do what go back jog back i jog back wait for the person to get to me

Starting point is 00:34:56 here is let's say you challenged me you challenged my shot and then ran across that way right which someone like makmuda do right here challenge your shot run over there My first instance to move back now my first incident is the sprint that way right now I got all run over that way and then go get the rebound and then get outside to come back in so you you you're Exerting so much energy, and I don't think the first year a lot of those guys didn't know that and that's why they're getting hurt Their bodies wasn't used to that type of movement. I remember when I when I my very first game we played on us We played on a Sunday. I think I Missed my Sunday flight. I miss every flight on Monday

Starting point is 00:35:44 Missed every flight on Tuesday, missed every flight on Tuesday, caught the last one on Tuesday. That's how tired I was. Like, I was so tired. Like, I even got to the airport on Tuesday and then fell asleep in the bus and then body was just gone. Yeah, facts. Body was gone, pulled my groin, just, I landed. It was different. Yeah, it was so different.

Starting point is 00:36:04 I just wasn't used to that cuz you talk about playing offense to defense Simultaneously, but it's like who you garden so think about if it's three on three You got the toughest three against the toughest three. I'm guard Nick if I miss I know I gotta guard him Right, you know He missed he know he gotta come down for me and depending on what mode I am playing He's like man. It's think about to take me now. Yeah Oh, I know I'm like he bought the being me

Starting point is 00:36:32 He might be out here trying to did it did it go here go I'm like you got to sit down and are and then the rotations, you know Rotation go over your head and the lazy niggas sitting back here like You try to close out the shot, you know to run that big man and get big enough. You trying to close out the every shot? You know what the worst part is? After they score, what your goofy ass got to go do? Take it all out. All the way to the back.

Starting point is 00:36:55 All the way back to the top. Take the ball. Bro. The first three minutes, you tired as fuck. You're like, where the time? All the big man do is just like you like take the ball out Oh, man, I can roll every time you got a handle the ball every time I was more tight I wouldn't even dribble ball

Starting point is 00:37:12 I'm good. I just sit this corner and you always want a good guy who could just drive and yeah You just pace out. I'm just gonna sit over here. Yeah, I gotta help Lay up every time. Shit. That's real. So all the fans out there, Big 3 is legit. And so are Big 3 championships.

Starting point is 00:37:31 So we got three Big 3 champions here. Especially with how YouTube is. Like everybody playing on YouTube and all that. I think like streetball

Starting point is 00:37:38 in general was just getting bigger. Like kids know, I don't even know these YouTube kids things, but they know like Hezzy God now. I used to like that. I just think they missed a big opportunity with the big three. They didn't take care of the players like they should have to have the players keep promoting it. Because we

Starting point is 00:37:58 had a lot of big hitters promoting them for a long time. And then after the COVID shit hit and they wasn't obligated to pay to raise the pay for the players one to have still lined up and be like yo this big three we're gonna take this shit serious but now it's just kind of like what you're gonna get down here now i think they uh they're doing team team buys now i know you have investors that can come bigger bigger players that's what i'm saying. But now that it's already they're not taking it serious like they was at that one point where everybody was

Starting point is 00:38:30 looking at Big 3 like, hey, that's some shit to go try to fuck with. But then after that shit hit, the COVID shit hit, you could just see. I think it's back now. I feel like it's back now. Now you realize you don't need

Starting point is 00:38:44 the name anymore. See feel like it's back now. Now you realize you don't need the name anymore. Yeah. It's more about the... See, before, it was the name, and the talent wasn't there. Yeah. Across those names that they were using, right? You can't be on CBS with no names.

Starting point is 00:38:57 Would you rather have AI playing like he was, or would you have a random guy coming in there, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom? Right? Because at the end of the day, the consumer, right, the consumer wants to really

Starting point is 00:39:10 just see, like, what's talented. You want to see the high flying and stuff like this. Seeing the old dudes bang with bad bodies, it just didn't look good. It didn't look good when you... It wasn't for that, though.

Starting point is 00:39:21 It was for the memorabilia and the photo ops for them being there, right? So you put them in there for the first two minutes. That's what they used to do with A.I. Yeah. Two minutes. So, Mount Chauncey, two minutes.

Starting point is 00:39:32 We just need y'all on here because we got y'all on the cover. Yeah, but now that you don't got that no more, like, even if you had Dwight Howard come back and play and DeMarcus Cousins and a couple of those that's playing overseas, just a headline, that's big enough to just draw people in. How's the crowds? It's big, man. When I went to the one in D.C., I was like, yo. It's more because

Starting point is 00:39:55 what happens is besides the names, right, the actual talent you're seeing, you're seeing moves. You're really seeing moves and dunking that you're seeing people actually get dunked. You're really seeing moves and dunking that you're seeing people actually get dunked on now versus somebody getting clotheslined out of the air because they don't want to get embarrassed because they're out of shape.

Starting point is 00:40:12 It's a little different. But it's who's doing it. Who's clotheslining? You got Charles Oakley clotheslining Reggie Evans. That's WWF Hall of Famer shit. Two niggas from International or two dudes from L.A. Drew League. Like, we don't know who these dudes are.

Starting point is 00:40:31 They know who they are now. Like, this new era of ballers' life is... Ballers is, like, big. Like, people come and see heavy guy. No, for sure. Like, he's on the... But he would have to... Look at what he had to come out of his side to come here to help them

Starting point is 00:40:48 He's helping them. That's this new no Who's out there has he gotten He ain't killed by my team. I'm asking he got a lot of the guy is not out there The only notable name from the YouTube series He bought up. He's not doing none of that who's out there doing what he's doing Jordan Crawford on my team Mike Beesley my baby remember they put the age down doing what has he know what I'm saying is they put the age down

Starting point is 00:41:17 They put the a remember remember y'all was a pretty day. I was 23. We was just all NBA guys now Yeah, it was all X but for that number, but there was, what, 32 and over? They got great Navy. Then they went to 27 when I got there. 27. Now they're 23. So imagine NBA players that's not in the NBA at 23 years old. Oh, for that.

Starting point is 00:41:34 So you know that's what I'm saying. They went for the athleticism versus just the older names. Hey, man. It looks like a better product when you watch it. For sure. All right. Okay, dudes is really, okay. I get what you're saying, have like one big name on each team or something.

Starting point is 00:41:49 But I just feel like they started over. They started from scratch now. Because where it was, they was going a certain way where we had notable guys representing each team, captain, co-captain, boom, pushing it this way. But now you had to start fresh, and you're bringing the guys who would never have been co-captain boom pushing it this way, but now you had to start fresh and you're bringing the guys who would never been co-captains They're now captains and co-captains and we don't know the blue guy. You know, so fun is they got where where What happened with it was this?

Starting point is 00:42:19 Most of the dead weight was the captains in the yeah As it was friends, and friends. They were picking friends. They were picking friends that didn't play because they wanted to get money. And then the players who were really balling is the ones that got drafted that gets the lowest pay. So they started complaining that, oh shit, I'm out here playing all this guy, he ain't even showing up.

Starting point is 00:42:39 They used to come to me to complain all the time. So basically it's like they weeded out that and then just brung in more talent. Hey, man, I think my team should play in the USA 3 on 3 team. Okay. I got the best team in history. We do, man. We got the best team in history. No, no, no, no, no, no.

Starting point is 00:42:56 It's y'all. It's y'all. It's your team now. You're the owner. You know. I thought Joe Johnson was the best guy out there. We just killed him Sunday. Y'all just played them?

Starting point is 00:43:04 We beat them in the championship. It was good that first year Joe and them got there. Who he got on his team now? Same team. Same team. See, that's what happened to us. We didn't change out until last year. They got that first, Joe Johnson's first year when he came in,

Starting point is 00:43:18 he was damn near Luka and defense. But what I'm saying is, no, no, no. What I'm saying is 20-something points, assists. What I'm saying is, 20-something points, assists and rebounds. You know, Joe was damn near leading the league in every category. Because they was not expecting motherfucker, Yoga Man, to come in. But think about... It was the triplets.

Starting point is 00:43:36 The team is the triplets. Yeah, and he was damn near averaging a triple-double. But what I'm saying is, they wasn't expecting Joe that... Like, he came in... He came in shape. Right? To the point where he got a tryout and made the damn Boston, right? That year was crazy. But it wasn't ready for that.

Starting point is 00:43:51 It wasn't ready for him. Are you looking at dude like, man, he taking this shit serious? That Staples thing was crazy. The championship. We talked big three. I missed that smoke. Talked big three. Now let's move on to Adam Silver's National Basketball

Starting point is 00:44:05 Association. NBA Finals, Game 5. You want to buy the team? You can buy the team. I'm going to buy the team that was mine. It's yours. That's what I'm saying. You should keep it. Y'all got me fucked up. Let's shift over to the NBA.

Starting point is 00:44:21 After getting smacked in Game 4 in Dallas, Celtics return to Boston Monday for Game 5 of the NBA Finals, needing one more win to the NBA. After getting smacked in game four in Dallas, Celtics returned to Boston Monday for game five of the NBA Finals needing one more win to make history. Let's get real. Proceeded to make

Starting point is 00:44:30 light work of Luke and the Mavs to get the gentlemen sweep 16 years to the day of their last NBA championship. We got some highlights.

Starting point is 00:44:39 Oh, man. Mostly Celtics. Look at this. Oh, my God. They came out, you know, Mavs gave their best punch early on, but Celtics were Look at this. Oh my God. They came out you know, Mavs gave their best punch early on but

Starting point is 00:44:47 Celtics were not playing games. They wanted to win that chip. Tatum and Brown Battling for their finals MVP. So Celtics jumped out to a 10 point lead in the first quarter. Never looked back. Kept cooking in the second quarter. Tatum was out there balling

Starting point is 00:45:04 man. You got to really. Man. He finally, you know, he stepped up. I thought he was going to get finals MVP. I was mistaken. I got the tweets going. Got packed up for him. The game is the game.

Starting point is 00:45:17 But, like I said, Celtics kept cooking second quarter. Look at that. And Derek White lost the two. Y'all better look at that. This is what it takes to be a champion. Chipped his two, stayed in the two. Y'all better look at that. That's what it takes to be a champion. Chipped his two, stayed in the game. But Celtics went on a 19-7 run to end the second

Starting point is 00:45:32 quarter. Capped off with Peyton Pritchard, who put an exclamation point on the explosive first half, hit another deep buzzer beater, take a 21-point lead to the break. He likes those. He said he'd do that. He a 21-point lead to the break. He likes those. He said he'd do that.

Starting point is 00:45:46 He liked that. Third quarter, they continued the onslaught. Jason Tatum got to work. So Tatum had 16 points, nine assists in the first half. Kept cooking in the second. Celtics were making plays on the offensive and defensive side of the ball. Fourth quarter, they continue rolling. In the house to Bill Russell.

Starting point is 00:46:13 Bill. Bucket, bucket, bucket. Jason Tatum led the Celtics with 31 points, 11 assists, 8 rebounds, 2 steals. Jalen Brown ended his postseason run with another solid performance. He had 21 points, 8 rebounds 8 rebounds, 2 steals. Jalen Brown ended his postseason run with another solid performance. He had 21 points, 8 rebounds, 6 assists, 2 steals, en route to being named Finals MVP. Drew Holiday added 15 points, 11 rebounds, 4 assists, and Derek White had 14 points, 8 rebounds, 2 steals.

Starting point is 00:46:39 Luka on the other side, 28-12-5. Kyrie continued to struggle at the Garden. He had 15 points. Now 1-14 against the Celtics and stomping on the Lucky the Leprechaun half-court logo. So the Celtics win their record 18th championship, which ties the Lakers for total NBA chips

Starting point is 00:46:56 including in-season tournament championships, which is a stat now. 18-18. But it was a big moment for Tatum and Brown. Are they saying that or no? No. Why y'all hating? God damn. 18 to 18. But it was a big moment for Tatum and Brown. Are they saying that or no? No. Why are y'all hating?

Starting point is 00:47:08 God damn. Gills Arena, we control the narrative. Yeah. They ain't with it. They ain't with getting the memo. Okay. I'm ready. They ain't even want to quit if I don't need the bread.

Starting point is 00:47:19 Big moment for Tatum and Brown. 107 career playoff games together was the most ever for any duo prior to winning a chip. They got it now. So after the game, an emotional Tatum had this to say about finally reaching the mountaintop. Oh, my God. It's a surreal feeling. We did it. We did it!

Starting point is 00:47:41 Oh, my God. We did it. Anything is possible. He ain't with Nike Doc. Jordan. He's not with Adidas. No, Adidas is anything possible. Don't stop disbelieving. What you said here was wrong.

Starting point is 00:49:25 to be included. I'm not here to win everything, okay? I'm pretty good at a lot of things, everything. But I'm willing to lose to hang out with you guys. I'm willing to not participate for you guys to be like, oh, since Sean's not here, I'm right since he's not here because he's usually right when he's here. But we don't like hanging around people who are right all the time, and I just want to make sure y'all know I was right. Let's give it up for America because we won, baby.

Starting point is 00:49:55 America won. America won this year. Yeah, America won, baby. Jason Tatum, Jalen Brown did it for America. They put Luca ass out. Oh, my God. I got so tired of everybody talking about these foreigners and shit. America is here.

Starting point is 00:50:13 Baby, it's America's league. Baby, it's America's league. Shit. I hope y'all see it. Can you imagine if that was Tatum getting blew by like that? Oh, they would have kicked him playing arena mode. That was him. Facts.

Starting point is 00:50:26 He wouldn't be able to, oh, my God. If they would have showed a three-minute clip of him just getting blew by like Luka was, oh, he'd have been out of the league. It would have been over for Tatum. But, oh, no, that's just Luka. But, oh, no. Just Luka, Luka, Luka.

Starting point is 00:50:42 But not today, baby. Tatum here, bro. Fucking Brown. So Tatum and Brown did this for America? Oha. But not today, baby. Tatum here, bro. Fucking Brown. So Tatum and Brown did this for America? Oh, they did it for us, yes. They should have had an American flag, all kinds of shit. Why you keep saying Tatum name first? Because Tatum is first.

Starting point is 00:50:56 Stats don't lie. Excuse me? You see every past. I love Brown. They the best two. Why did you say Tatum is first? The best two guard and the best three guard in the league. Why would you say Tatum is first?

Starting point is 00:51:04 I said it. Why? I'm going to say it. Why? Because he did it. Why did you say Tatum's first? The best two-guard and the best three-guard in the league. Why would you say Tatum's first? I said it. Why? I'm going to say it. Why? Because he did it. He did what? You want to hear me? Nick, I'm asking you questions, Nick.

Starting point is 00:51:13 The narrative y'all trying to paint like Tatum did. Don't make me get this bag. Don't make me get this bag out. You only won because the narrative is already set. Nick, you're new. You're new. That he should have won final. You're new.

Starting point is 00:51:22 I haven't sized you for the bag yet. Every pass Brown got was from Tatum. You're new you're new. He should have one. I knew I haven't sized you for the bag yet Was from Tatum every pass Brown got was Taylor drove past the brown body got a pass at all Somebody don't know whoever got the ball got a pass That's my dog he comes up lift. Let's use this To the one final thing all I know is Tatum did win every guy talking about Tatum Tatum Tatum Tatum Tatum is cold He didn't win Didn't win Because the narrative makes you put it makes you go. Yeah

Starting point is 00:52:03 They want a championship Brown Yeah, I don't want to go against him. They won a championship. Brown deserves it because of Brown. KD and Steph got to go against each other. You had to pick which. We always picked one of them two niggas, didn't we? No. Brown. Because you already knew who was the. Brown deserve.

Starting point is 00:52:15 Brown, out of the two who deserves it for their legacy, Brown. Brown gets screwed the most. Yes. Brown is only, I didn't really realize that. He's only a one-time All-NBA player. So with these two awards that he got, it makes up for what the NBA has done for him. Yeah. Like, so that is, that's all that matters, right? Like, he gets to feel like, yo, they acknowledging me for the first time, and I like that feeling.

Starting point is 00:52:48 So this ain't about who should have won it. For real. He deserves it for what they've done, and they're making it right, and it doesn't matter at that point. So let's talk about this. Now, let's talk about him saying he's right at everything. Uh-oh. Uh-oh. I just want to ask the question.

Starting point is 00:53:03 You made 10 claims. Uh-oh. How many were you right about again? Uh-oh. I just want to ask the question. You made 10 claims. Uh-oh. How many were you right about again? Uh-oh. I just want to ask the question, right? You had Celtics, right? And Jalen Brown. Those are the two things that you were right about.

Starting point is 00:53:15 Uh-oh. Uh-oh, what happened? I wasn't here for this. No, I just said, you know. I'm getting hit with sprays. No, no. Defending you. I said Jason Tatum was not going to play the way he needs to play to win finals MVP if he didn't amp it up a little bit.

Starting point is 00:53:29 Because he was in two series prior to this. I'm like, eh, he looks off. He looks out of rhythm. He needs to get this shit together. Yeah, it was 22 Aydens. Yeah, but it wasn't enough to get the MVP. I don't want him... So you had MVP Brown and Boston. Those were your two claim to fans? No. What else? I don't remember.

Starting point is 00:53:51 But you say you was right about everything. Yeah. So you go two for ten, and then you're right about everything. Righteous. Righteous. Because you did say it was going to be game seven. That was wrong. No, I changed it. And then you changed it to 4-0.

Starting point is 00:54:01 Wrong again. Yeah. Right? So you're wrong and wrong. But did we win? Yeah. Okay. So they say wrong and wrong. But did we win? Yeah. Okay. So they say I was right.

Starting point is 00:54:08 What about that? You didn't pick Boston, though. I know. Yeah, I was there. They was right, though. He picked Boston. I picked Boston. He had to pick somebody because his team not in.

Starting point is 00:54:16 4-1. You know when you got to go to the barbecue, eat whatever the fuck we cook because you got to show up? I picked Boston 4-1. I'm the one who did that. I didn't go 7 and then switch it to 4 when it was up 2-0. So I didn't even switch midway.

Starting point is 00:54:29 You finally got to win. So you lost both. You got to win. You got to win. What I'm saying is, talk about your losses. I win majority of the time. Talk about your losses too.

Starting point is 00:54:36 No. So you win 2-10? I don't want to talk about my losses. Okay. You were 2-10. This nigga went 2-10 talking about he's the most right nigga in here.

Starting point is 00:54:42 I am. I am. I suppose, what am I supposed to win for this? I suppose I win. You do get a bonus. You do get a bonus. You get a bonus.

Starting point is 00:54:49 Like a $3 million bonus, right? Damn. It's a damn. You get a special pick-em. Cool. Special pick-em. You get this special cake. Oh, yeah.

Starting point is 00:54:58 What is it? You get a cake or something. You get a five, what is it, five grand? You get a cake or something? What is this shit? Oh, no, he's supposed to have won something. I'm going to win something, shit. That was an underdog thing, wasn't it?

Starting point is 00:55:08 Underdog? Jersey and the Raptors or something, shit. Cut the check, underdog. Cut the check. I forgot. I'm going to win something. But let's talk about this Celtics team as a whole first. We will get into the individual specifics.

Starting point is 00:55:19 64-18 regular season, best team in the league by a comfortable margin. 16-3 this postseason. Did have some stumbles early on, but no series they were in went longer than five games. Man, there's only a couple teams that do that. Warriors and Lakers. Warriors, Lakers, them? And them.

Starting point is 00:55:41 Is that it? Yeah. How impressive. We talked about early on the stumbles, but they were in the Eastern Conference You know beat the heat squad that was missing Jimmy Butler as Gil pointed out Jimmy's butlers Which one my favorite this is like this is like the first one like to get the monkey off your back So it don't matter like Holly if somebody was missing like if somebody got hurt on another team, it still was a...

Starting point is 00:56:05 Yeah, they play who they play. You can only play who's in front of you. Went on to sweep the Pacers. Got to the finals. Made very light work of the Luka-Kairi duo. Man. And that was like the, everybody said that's the best duo ever.

Starting point is 00:56:21 Luka-Kairi. Then they ran up against, I think, the best. So you think people will try to discredit this championship? Of course they will. Of course. Just because. Like similar to the bubble chip? If you're referring to the hardest championship NBA history won in the bubble

Starting point is 00:56:41 with no home court advantage, pandemic. What I'm saying is, what is the discredit? Someone has to win it, right? The discredit is what? You know what I'm saying? Like, when Joel Embiid got up there saying what he was saying, like, he's subliminally discrediting the championship if they win it because everybody was hurt on the East.

Starting point is 00:57:00 So whose fault is it? Okay, what about the West? I don't know. Nobody on the West won it. I know. So what I'm saying is he's worrying about everybody on the East, but he had to play against a team on the West to win the championship. Yeah, I know. I mean, that's what just what Joel is saying is basically... That's everybody. The hypothetical, if we don't get hurt, it's a different road for them.

Starting point is 00:57:25 Okay, but Bucks. Y'all got an easy road. What championship then? You can say the same thing. I've said it. I've said it. But you can say everybody's championship. I've said it.

Starting point is 00:57:32 You can say Warriors, anybody. I've said it. Warriors, you can say Toronto. Kyrie got hurt. You can't say it about the Warriors because they came back and they doubled up. They won multiples. The ones that only won one, those are the paper champs. Wait, wait, wait.

Starting point is 00:57:43 No, they didn't win. Kyrie got hurt, came back when he wasn't hurt. They won. Kyrie in the world. And they won two back-to-back. So they doubled up. And they won two back-to-back. They got KD.

Starting point is 00:57:53 And they won two back-to-back. KD and me. Right. And then they won two back-to-back, right? Yeah, there you go. So you can't argue that. I'm like that little extra, ugh. Got them back.

Starting point is 00:58:03 You can't argue that. There's no such thing, man, as taking away somebody's championship. Yeah, you can't. I mean, you know what I mean? It just doesn't make sense. No, I wouldn't say take away more than it is just discrediting it. Just saying, hey, man, that bubble shit, y'all can say it's the hardest of all time. Is that how I say it?

Starting point is 00:58:19 All I hear is Mickey Mousin them in here. Why is that? What makes it hard? Everybody likes it. Mickey Mousin, Mickey Mousin. What makes it not hard? That's what I hear that Mickey Mous is that? What makes it hard? Everybody likes it. Mickey Mouse, Mickey Mouse. What makes it not hard? That's what I hear

Starting point is 00:58:27 that Mickey Mouse does. What makes it not hard? Just my opinion. No, I'm just saying, but what makes it? Like, what is the criteria? Everybody was actually healthy. Yeah.

Starting point is 00:58:36 The COVID. No, that's hard. The COVID disease. Whatever you want to call that. Like, actually having to play when people are coughing on you and shit. Yeah, I went over to China, right? But what I'm saying is someone has to win and everyone's there, everyone's healthy.

Starting point is 00:58:53 But they didn't have to play it. That's what I'm saying. They didn't have to play it. But they did. But everybody played. Which makes it an asterisk because it's like... What I'm saying is everybody played. But anybody else but the Lakers.

Starting point is 00:59:03 There was no missing anybody. Everybody on the Clippers was there. Everybody on Denver was there. If there was no COVID and they had the same scenario with no COVID, I would give it credit. But the Lakers was winning before COVID. They had the best record before COVID. But they didn't win it before COVID.

Starting point is 00:59:17 All I'm saying is COVID played a part in them winning. If there's no COVID and they decided to go to a bubble and do all that shit Who's winning no cover What I'm saying is it's it's it's a disadvantage to the Lakers being in a bubble Just like if if you take the Cowboys and you take them out of their their their

Starting point is 00:59:42 This arena and put them in a city where it's neutral, right? They don't have fan base there. But they still have the players to go on the field and play, bro. Yes, you do too. The fans don't have nothing to do with it. You do too. The fans don't have nothing to do with the bubble, bro. What I'm saying is, yes, because there are certain cities that when they go to town,

Starting point is 01:00:01 like when New York went to Philly. Oh, that's not an issue. What I'm saying is when New York went to Philly and dominated the Philly arena, you take that out of it and put it in the bubble where there's no fans. It makes it easy for the other team. You don't get booed.

Starting point is 01:00:17 It makes it balanced for everybody. It makes it balanced. Now we just play, right? Now we're dealing with a COVID. Now we're dealing with niggas coughing on me and shit. Niggas just touch me and all of a sudden I'm thinking I can die in here. I can die in here, bro.

Starting point is 01:00:33 No one got sick. That's hard. Imagine you playing in, that's like playing in a Drew. Summer League shit. Because nobody there watching you ain't worried about fans talking. Nobody booing you. Nobody calling you the N-word. Does it count in a Drew? Yes. To who? There's nobody there watching you, worried about fans talking. Nobody booing you. Nobody calling you the N-word. You miss a shot, you don't care.

Starting point is 01:00:45 Does it count in the Drew? Yes. Yes. To who? To me. Only the motherfuckers playing in the Drew, right? So everybody plays in it. Only the motherfuckers playing in the Drew, right?

Starting point is 01:00:53 So the thing outside the Drew is an asterisk when you say we're the best summer league in the world. Everybody was playing in it. You act like it was just the Lakers and two other teams. Bro, all I'm saying is. Everybody played in it. You act like it was just the Lakers and two other teams. Bro, all I'm saying... Everybody played in it. Compared to Boston doing what they just did, they played a whole season. They played in that too and lost.

Starting point is 01:01:12 Certain people got hurt. That's their fault. COVID. Motherfuckers like, I'm not trying to die. Nobody had COVID. I'm not trying to die. So, our Detroit Pistons championship is gone. Why?

Starting point is 01:01:22 Carmelone was gone. Their main... He wasn't gone because of COVID. He was main... He wasn't gone because of COVID. He was injured. He wasn't gone because of COVID. You're trying to use this Boston injury. Carmelone and... What about the Jordan flu game?

Starting point is 01:01:34 What about the Jordan flu game? What are you talking about? That's the biggest game. Oh, he was sick and he still won. That's the same thing as COVID. That means LeBron had COVID and still won. You're not discrediting Michael Jordan for that game. Yes, you are.

Starting point is 01:01:45 Why not? He get the game winner. That's why. LeBron had COVID and still won. You're not discrediting Michael Jordan for that game. Yes, you are. Why not? He didn't get the game winner. That's why. But LeBron had COVID and still won. Don't you say nobody got sick? Anybody. It's the same thing. I don't like seeing Celtics fans beat anybody.

Starting point is 01:01:55 Listen, you won a championship. You won a championship. The day after y'all won a championship. I'm just saying as far as what Joel and anybody. I don't care about a dude who can't beat Boston. They can discredit them. They can say, hey, man, y'all had it. He can't beat Boston when he was healthy.

Starting point is 01:02:10 He ain't beat Boston yet. 3-2. Okay. A 21-year-old and a 20-year-old beating the fuck out of him. Okay, okay. Man. That's cool. Anytime you see him, dog walking.

Starting point is 01:02:21 That's cool. Had him on a leash like that. So the one thing... I wanted to... When they say that Indiana Pacers... Had him on a leash like that. So the one thing... I wanted to... When they say that the Indiana Pacers... Had him on a leash with his eye open. The Indiana Pacers beat... Tell him to walk the right way.

Starting point is 01:02:30 Beat Milwaukee, why? Huh? Why did the Indiana Pacers beat Milwaukee? Because they won more games than... No, because, you know, whatever. Why did they beat them? During the... Because that's not what he's going to say prior to this.

Starting point is 01:02:44 He's going to say because Giannis was hurt. Okay, because Giannis was hurt. Okay, so if the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the whole East was injured. We can't agree with that. We can say, hey, man, you got your team. You got your team. All I'm saying is if Joel can say, man, it was an easy walk to the finals for the Boston Celtics, man, maybe next year when we all get healthy, we can see if they can run it back and see how good they really are.

Starting point is 01:03:19 He got his ass whooped by the New York Knicks. The whole team was gone. Same thing with the bubble shit. Y'all winning in the bubble? Bring it back. Run it back. Why are we listening to a dude who lost to the Knicks, whose whole team was injured?

Starting point is 01:03:36 They lost to Josh Hart. They lost to Josh Hart. And what's the redhead? I don't know. Dante DiVincenzo. Y'all some respect. Donovan Daniel. They lost to DiVincenzo. Show some respect. Donovan. Donovan Daniels. Some shit.

Starting point is 01:03:45 Devin Chinzo. They lost to Devin Chinzo in the group. They missed three of their best players. And he couldn't beat them. Why are we listening to a dude who went on ESPN with a t-shirt? Man. Man. Man.

Starting point is 01:03:58 Like this. What's going on? What's wrong with a t-shirt? Because he's MVP of the league. Cool. That's why you listen to him. That's why. Hey, man. We league. Because he's MVP of the league. Cool. That's why you listen to him. That's why. Hey, man, we don't want to listen to your hate.

Starting point is 01:04:09 You lost. Get it together next year. Get your knee right. Well, that's the same thing he be saying about LeBron. When LeBron be up there talking in the last five years. LeBron don't be on ESPN talking. Why? LeBron's too bitchy.

Starting point is 01:04:20 LeBron is ESPN himself. Well, whoever. Y'all niggas talking for him then. Y'all talking for him. For the niggas talking for him then. Y'all talking for him. Don't disrespect LeBron. But the niggas will talk for him. All right. Y'all can sit the fuck down and stuff.

Starting point is 01:04:29 They can send a tweet out and just boom, boom, boom. Send a tweet out. And we have to go on ESPN. Donovan D. Vincenzo. Is it not? He got beat by him. He got beat by him. Is it not worthy both ways, though?

Starting point is 01:04:40 No. Hell no. So it's not discredited both ways? No. No. See. Rashad. Are we crediting it? We are a world that both ways? No. No, see. Rashad.

Starting point is 01:04:45 So we crediting it? We are a world that thrives off negativity. Like every championship. I'm going to figure out a way to discredit this shit. Right, Bull's first championship wasn't Magic Johnson and her? I can't say that. Yeah, but we know. We know.

Starting point is 01:04:56 Los Angeles knows. That's everybody's championship. And he out there doing this shit on Magic. And y'all count that. Oh, he's the greatest. Nigga, Magic. Stop. It sounds like over, right? No. It sounds like over, right? And y'all count that oh, he's the greatest nigga magic Oh, it's not like over right? No, it's not like over right? Oh my god, so this house. Don't that sound fucking familiar?

Starting point is 01:05:12 I don't want this thing a comment wait, wait. Hold on. We don't want magic. Hold on, hold on. The only team that lost a player to COVID was the Lakers. What are you talking about? The only player who didn't show up in the whole thing was a Laker player. Right? Was it Avery Bradley? Avery Bradley is the only player.

Starting point is 01:05:43 So they had to go get somebody. It was Orlando, too, I think. Orlando who? In the Clippers. Clippers player so they get somebody it was Orlando to I think Orlando who the Clippers Clippers in Orlando, yes, it's players what Clippers what Clipper players didn't show up I think Nah, I know Jonathan Isaac didn't show Who like the first I know every breath every breath was a starter right? We lost a starter Yeah, that's just tell you how stacked y'all was. Starter.

Starting point is 01:06:08 Who did Clippers lose? Nobody. Lou Williams dipped for a little bit because he had, I think, a death in the family, but he came back after hitting Magic City. No, come on, man. Swings are delicious. Worked, in my opinion. Y'all know I love wings.

Starting point is 01:06:22 He went to COVID shit. Kyrie, too? Was Kyrie? So you thought they were worried about COVID? He went to Magic City? Come on, man. That's for real. He thought they were worried about COVID.

Starting point is 01:06:30 Would you go to Magic City? They were worried about COVID. All the girls and they was flying to COVID. If I'm going to die somewhere, I'm going to die at Magic City. You know how many imports they had? Let's get back. Let's keep this centralized on the Bostonian Celtics and their 18th championship record. Again, two Boston Celtics fans. Nick, you've rolled in today with the Bostonian Celtics and their 18th championship record.

Starting point is 01:06:46 Again, two Boston Celtics fans. Nick, you rolled it today with the Boston Celtics shirt. I wasn't going to bust you out, but you still had the little tag on the back. I just bought it. That means I don't got no Boston Celtics. I respect you for it. We are in LA.

Starting point is 01:07:00 A little different than the San Fernando Valley, but nonetheless. Rashad, you jumped on the Boston train very early this morning. A little different than the San Fernando Valley, but nonetheless. Rashad, you jumped on the Boston train very early this season. Abandoned your Miami Heat allegiance, confidence coffee Jimmy Butler. I'm proud of yourself for that decision

Starting point is 01:07:15 to become a Celtics fan this season. How does it feel to see your decision to pay off with the championship? I think I was the only Celtics fan. I said Taylor should have won MVP. Everybody thought I was the only one. You were just seeing the payoff with the championship. I think I was the only Celtics fan. I said Tatum should have won MVP. Everybody thought I was crazy and shit. No, the real Celtic fan is Lexi. Oh, shit.

Starting point is 01:07:34 Shout out D. Brown. Yeah, Lexi's been going hard for his Celtics. The OG. See, he can do anything and discredit me. Right. He don't want to discredit everybody else, huh? That's crazy as fuck. That's nasty work. No, he picked him out of the beginning of the year. That's nasty work. He did? He'll do anything to discredit me. Right. But you don't want to discredit everybody else, huh? That's crazy as fuck.

Starting point is 01:07:46 That's nasty work. No, he picked him out of the beginning of the year. That's nasty work. He did? No, he picked him out of the beginning of the year. That's nasty work. He got rid of Miami. That's Boston before this season.

Starting point is 01:07:54 I just want niggas to say I was right. That's it. Let's just say the nigga right. Rashad, you were right. You were right. He good. He good and he right. He always winning.

Starting point is 01:08:02 Niggas stripped me from a championship. You know that? I didn't know that, man. Niggas stripped me from a... I used to have a championship trophy right here. He said I can't have. Niggas stripped me from a championship. You know that? I didn't know that, man. I used to have a championship trophy right here. He said, I can't have it no more. That's cool, man. The championship trophy is no longer in here. That's nasty work, man. Where is the championship trophy?

Starting point is 01:08:16 I don't even know. They stripped me. That's the trophy you told me to take that day. No, he lost it to, who has it now? Brendan. Okay. I didn't lose it to, who has it now, Brendan. Oh, okay. So, Brendan. I didn't lose it to anybody.

Starting point is 01:08:29 Redemption? I was stripped. You know when you don't fight? You know in boxing, you don't fight, and then they just strip your title. You ain't fought in the last two weeks, man. We had to not invite this motherfucker, so we got to get this shit going, man. Yeah, I mean, he was good at everything. I know, right?

Starting point is 01:08:44 He was sticking to all the codes. All the codes. Mortal Kombat, left, right, man. Yeah, I mean, he was good at everything. I know. He was sticking to all the codes. All the codes. He could look. More of a comeback left, right. That's it. Brandon getting redemption for the untimely demise of freedom. No, I got to get the real one. I got to get the weekly one.

Starting point is 01:08:56 Yeah. No, he's a three-time champ. Three-time weekend champ. Boston. Boston Celtics. You know what I'm saying? Let's talk a little. I pick right.

Starting point is 01:09:04 Tatum and Brown. So despite a dominant performance from Tatum in the series clinching win and him leading the Celtics in points, rebounds, and assists in the finals and postseason, Jalen Brown followed up his Eastern Conference Finals MVP by winning the finals MVP. So we have the voting from the Square Media and the 11 members. It was 11? 11 members of the Square Media. What, 6-5 again?

Starting point is 01:09:27 So it was 7-4. So Brown received 7 of the 11 media votes with Tatum getting the other 4. But let's give Jalen Brown his love. You know, earlier this postseason, we had Stephen A. Smith saying sources told him that Jalen Brown was unmarketable and more or less alluding to him being uppity.

Starting point is 01:09:46 We just want to keep it real. And that's why he doesn't get some of the same attention and love that others get around the league. So Jalen Brown said, I'm going to let my game do the talking. Average 21 points, five rebounds, five assists for the series while shooting 44% from the field. So Rashad, let's talk a little bit about Jalen Brown. Is it time for the basketball community to put some more respect on Jalen Brown's name? For sure. Factuals. And I liked

Starting point is 01:10:11 everything that he's doing when it comes down to his just poise and staying in the moment, not glorifying the award itself. I think that he just really wanted to go out there and win for his team. I think for me personally, I put a lot of emphasis on him rising to the occasion because I feel like he deserved it. That unwarranted perception of him being unmarketable right before the series started was kind of crazy.

Starting point is 01:10:38 So I think Stephen A put that out there. And Stephen A said he heard that from a source, so we're going to try and keep it as real. But it was unnecessary. Just to see that pan out, the way he went Eastern Conference and then go to win. Because to be honest, when they announced it,

Starting point is 01:10:53 it was kind of like when you're watching two boxers fight down to the wire, 12th round, and you don't know who's going to win. And the new, I was like, I didn't think he's gonna win it. I Thought it was tight I thought it was taken because the dick because we always think it's the final game in the series that takes you over the top I did and that wasn't it this time

Starting point is 01:11:15 Tatum dominant in that final game because that game for kind of they both boo boo a little even a little bit Yeah, they take him at 15. Brown had 10. They got smacked. It was the plus minus, though, that Tatum had back-to-back games. It was like negative 28, negative 30. Had more impact dunks and shit. But I always liked Brown. I think Brown always, to me, was, I know people don't like to hear, but I think he was always the number one two guard in this league. People like to throw Brooks and...

Starting point is 01:11:49 Booker. Booker. I mean, Booker and... Ant-Man. Ant-Man. But Ant-Man, you know, I say in a couple years, yeah, but it's Brown, you know, it's Brown and Taylor. I think I got the number one to guard and the number one small forward Hmm in the league and that like that who could say that I was he? and as It's hard to be

Starting point is 01:12:14 And when you look at both these gentlemen just just the sacrifices they've both made to uplift each other We talked about a couple seasons ago They were down and out had a losing record more than halfway through the season There was talks about splitting them up we all know what that means people were saying you know get Jalen Brown out of here rumors of KD and other situations going on they held the course stuck together experienced a tremendous amount of success like we pointed out earlier 170 107 games together as a duo which was the most to not win the chip got the chip make for

Starting point is 01:12:44 conference finals appearances. Lost to the Warriors in the finals 2022. Now I've gotten over that hump together. And for me, when that announcement was made, I was curious how Tatum was going to react. And he was just as happy as everybody else. I didn't see any no saltiness,

Starting point is 01:13:00 no bitterness, like just happy for this squad to accomplish the ultimate goal. And he had said previously earlier in the series, you know, when he wasn't scoring enough, that was going to be an issue. If he was scoring too much, that was going to be an issue. At the end of the day, just winning that chip was the most important thing. I thought it was, how they did it, I thought it was, it was classless, right? I know a part of what you're talking about. Go ahead.

Starting point is 01:13:27 You, right? Like, we've seen the last, like, let's just see the last four or five minutes of the game, right? We see Tatum's emotions. He's going for it. Yeah, he's going for it. He's scoring. You can see that he

Starting point is 01:13:42 clearly thought it was his. He was going for that shit, for sure. So what ends up happening is at the end, when they're celebrating, they announce it, give it to Jalen Brown, and then the first interview is Tatum. Asking him about it. That's crazy. That is classless. Like, I'm sorry. But you, one, because you know what y'all have been doing this whole time that was y'all been

Starting point is 01:14:06 pushing these two against each other the whole time so you give it to one and then interview the other one like do do the interview on both of them and then once it's done then you give it to him don't like this man in real trying trying to hold back his emotion you don't know what he's feeling right so the fact that you did that like i'm watching like that's great i could have did that you could have asked him interview did him and then gave it to one of them like the the fact that you give it to him and then say all right so uh so how do you feel about this championship like we all said why y'all do like why this is setup type shit come on man this is you don't do that what was he supposed to say? You know what I mean? He has to adjust what just happened.

Starting point is 01:14:47 You can see his emotion like, oh, okay. Yeah. Woo! You know how weird that is for you to win? So you just won something, and then they're going to come and ask you, so how do you feel about him winning the award you should have got? What? That's so nasty.

Starting point is 01:15:01 That's nasty. Do you feel, obviously, the game blowout was well in hand early in the third quarter? The third quarter? That shit was over in the first quarter. Yeah. The game was over in the first quarter. There was no third. They was up 21 at half, right?

Starting point is 01:15:14 I'd say, yeah. First quarter, you seen the body language. Both teams seemed nervous, right? Both teams seemed nervous. I'd say second quarter. From the Dallas Mavericks themselves, you knew early that it wasn't going to be that. Yeah. Right?

Starting point is 01:15:33 You know, just Drew Holiday kind of like. He started off, yeah. Drew Holiday like, all right, let's get to this basket. Like, yo, the backdoor layup. And then once everybody started fighting the rhythm, you can see that just... But my question for you guys, Tatum has the same performance, and it's a closer game than what it was.

Starting point is 01:15:51 Because it did look like third quarter, fourth quarter, he was trying to gun for that throne. And just him being offensive, going one-on-one, isoing a lot. It looked tired. Closer game, do you feel like that sways the voters more than others? This shit is already done. No, I don't think there would have been anything Tatum would have did that, I think it was just Brown's turn, right? From one and two game, I think.

Starting point is 01:16:17 Like, you know what I mean? Like, you know, even game four, no matter what, it was his, it's his turn, right? Like, when you say who who deserves it like one potentially could be the face of the nba you know one is getting all the accolades the new deal he's going to get the new deal brown is the one like one is first team all nba right and the other one is just like yeah yeah yeah yeah right so it So it's one of those things where it's like these words really mean more. It kind of gives him a stamp to say he's here. Yeah.

Starting point is 01:16:54 Right? Like if you stop Brown's career before this playoff started and said, is he a Hall of Famer, his accolades, there's nothing on his accolades. Right. Three-time All-Star, one-time All-NBA. That's all he has to his name. He's not a five-time, five-time. He's not that.

Starting point is 01:17:11 Eastern Conference, MVP, NBA Finals MVP, those solidify him as a basketball player where he feels he's been this whole time. So I like... This is, what, fifth year? I gave it that

Starting point is 01:17:25 No, that's that I gave it that I gave it to Tatum and then when I looked at Brown I was like cuz I was like well it was if I was voting I'm gonna look at it like I Know what ESPN is trying to do. I know what this narrative is I would do code I would do code then I was like and then I looked at and I was like now I'm gonna give It to Browns. Let me pose a question. The last three years with the Celtics, whose team was it? Tatum's.

Starting point is 01:17:52 Tatum's. And he's been taking us here. And we've been coming up short. That was young, man. Just hear me out. They're coming up short. Now we got this run, and we're gonna let Jalen lead us this time. I say Holiday led them before they both.

Starting point is 01:18:10 Just throw with me, though. Yeah. So Jalen is in front this time, and Jalen takes us to the house. And he takes us in the house, and now we sit up up upstairs and we got our own. No. He didn't take them. What do you mean he took them? Listen,

Starting point is 01:18:29 I understand what y'all want to do. No, we're just... So instead of... No, we know what you're trying to do. We know what you're trying to do. I'm not trying to... They gave him the leadership role to stay the team.

Starting point is 01:18:38 The team gave Jalen Brown the leadership role. And they said, take us here. And so now that it's not in Tatum's hand no more and it's in Brown's hands, he done went and he they got there now let's just not say he's not he's not the statistical leader and all this shit that y'all need for him to be there i'm just saying

Starting point is 01:18:52 the leader of the team he took him there he got this award he got that award and they won it all we've been waiting for this this is why jason tatum can't say nothing because shit i've been waiting for this. This is why Jason Tatum can't say nothing. Because, shit, I've been trying to do it my way like this for three years. We did it this way where I don't have to come in here with the pressure of feeling like I need to perform. I can show up. I can do my thing. And I don't care who win the awards. Because we winning.

Starting point is 01:19:19 We're going to win. I looked at it like that. Like, Jason Tatum was like, yo, as long as we win, I don't give a fuck. Jalen Brown, like, yo, I know I led the pack. Whether I get it or not, I know what I did. it like that. Like, Jason Tatum was like, yo, as long as we win, I don't give a fuck. Jalen Brown, like, yo, I know I led the pack. Whether I get it or not, I know what I did. Led what? You came in what? That's Drew Holliday.

Starting point is 01:19:32 Leadership. Drew is the leader. Drew is the leader. Drew is the leader. That's on what? You and him. He's the leader. The difference is Marcus Martin and Drew Holliday.

Starting point is 01:19:42 He had 31-11-8 and he didn't win MVP. Drew is the leader. Drew is. You see how he didn't win MVP. Drew is the leader. You see how the game started off yesterday? Drew is the leader. Who started the game for him? Aylan Brown is guarding who? The whole series. You said the leader.

Starting point is 01:19:54 Drew is the leader of the team. Drew is the leader of the team. So now you say the best player was. He going with the, of course he going to say that. I asked you a question, though. Don't change his answer If somebody asked you Don't change his answer though

Starting point is 01:20:07 Then you go You change his answer Can you play the video If somebody asked me Is Steph the best Is KD the best Can you play the video I just want to say

Starting point is 01:20:14 I just want to ask You're changing the answer though You're answering for your teammate You're a good teammate He could have said no You can't say He could have said no He could have said no

Starting point is 01:20:24 You're going to cause a rift Anyway right Yes if you say Brown Celtics you can't say could have said no no you call you could have said no Anyway, right Yes, if you say Brown you say Tatum you causing a rift, but if you just be honest, wait, hold on. Hold on. Okay Just be honest Right. Oh, you're saying so. Okay, so you're saying the best player right? He is the the leader of this team now I just want to ask you something the leader of the team the offense will go through them right? No is the leader of this team. Now, I just want to ask you something. The leader of the team, the offense will go through them, right? No. No. No. Wait, wait, hold on. Rewind. I just want to do it again. I just, I don't want to point, I just, all right, so, so, okay, I just want to,

Starting point is 01:20:59 I just, so we can see this in real time, right? Okay, okay, the offense is right here. All right, so we got one dude in the corner, right? The best player is in the corner away from the ball, not part of his offense. Okay, run it. Play it. Okay, he gets the ball as that guy, so okay. All right, now let's go again. So the, okay, so the second best player has the ball again, and then the other guy is in the corner, right? So the best player is sitting in the corner where he always is. Okay, we're just going to keep – I just want to see how this works. Oh, okay. So his own created shot off a turnover.

Starting point is 01:21:36 So you don't say nothing about him being the best player doing that? You're just going to say it when Jason Tatum – No, I just want to see. You're just going to say it when Jason Tatum has the ball. No, I just want to say who has the ball in the offense. Are you going to have clips with Jason Tatum in the corner? Okay, okay, here he goes again, and then. Okay, okay, pass it to the best player in the game.

Starting point is 01:21:52 Okay, that's. What is the best player doing? What is the best player doing? Is he hitting the shot? Is the best player hitting the shot when he gets close to him? I just want to. I just. For basketball terms.

Starting point is 01:22:02 This is basketball terms. Right? Okay, let's see. Okay, pass it. Okay. The best player passes it to the other best player. I just want to know. Right?

Starting point is 01:22:14 Ain't that what just happened? The best player passes it to the other best player. So Tatum assisted on nine of Brown's 30 field goals in the finals, which was the most of any teammate. Thank you. Nine of his 30 goals in the finals came from Tatum. I'm just saying, where's, okay, in the corner, which was the most of any teammate. Thank you. Nine of his 30 books in the finals came from Texas. I'm just saying, where's, okay, in the corner, right? I'm just trying to figure out.

Starting point is 01:22:30 Like, I don't like the... Why wasn't we figuring it out last game? What I'm saying is I don't like the narrative. Why weren't we doing this last game when they lost? They lost. Yeah, why wouldn't we do this last game? Why weren't we doing this this... Hold on.

Starting point is 01:22:43 We can do it every game. We should do it. We can do it every game. We know do it. We can do it every game. We know where Brown sits. He sits in the corner. Okay. Right? He sits in the corner.

Starting point is 01:22:50 He backdoors. The offense goes to one player. He does nothing. We get it. No, no, no. What I'm saying is. He does nothing. He do more than that.

Starting point is 01:22:57 No, no. Like, I just don't want to argue against. He's got no corner there. I don't want to argue against someone. What the fuck? Right? But a lot of his points do come off catch and shoot, too. But a good player can do everything.

Starting point is 01:23:10 A good player can do everything. What's their offense, Nick? What's their offense? Their offense is 1-5 pick and roll. So whoever has it at the top for the 1-5 pick and roll, they're the best player, right? Whoever has it at the top in the 1-5 is the best player at the time, right? I've never seen the best player in the second quarter. I'm saying both. I, I'm not gonna do that's what I said. I don't want to do this I know I've never seen LeBron James sitting in the corner. Just his whole crew

Starting point is 01:23:33 We're watching Dallas and we see where the two best players are and we see where everyone else is That's car. I said in the corner right the car. Huh? This Kyrie sit in the corner. No, no No, he says that the other hash mark waiting for Luka to do the pick and roll. He's the first pass. The first is usually the first pass of LeBron. He's sitting somewhere. Where LeBron's like- He's sitting somewhere waiting on the ball, right?

Starting point is 01:23:56 If he doesn't have it, where's Luka? Here, right? They're all, they're both sitting at the top. I thought whenever someone has the ball, all other four guys are sitting there watching him waiting on it. Not him. Just like, it doesn't matter if I'm on him. It doesn't matter if I'm in the corner. It doesn't matter if I'm in the doghouse. Only one person has the ball.

Starting point is 01:24:10 I was talking about Brown all day, talking about he ain't got no left hand, or he just dribbled with his right. I mean, people disrespect him, Brown. He's the finals MVP now. But now that he's the final MVP, he's the best thing in the— On the Celtics, yes. Come on, let's not do that. Let's just be happy for the Celtics winning.

Starting point is 01:24:25 Why can't we not do that? Because you hate. If you don't want to do that, that means you're hating. No. That means you're being a hater. Finally someone got something you didn't want to have. Why y'all didn't do this yourself? Oh, we don't want them to have it.

Starting point is 01:24:35 Why they didn't do this themselves? Why didn't they do it last year when they won it last year? Did they win it last year? Who? The Celtics. No. No, they didn't. You know who they won this year? Why y'all didn't do this yourself? You know who's doing all this shit to help them win it last year? Who? The Celtics. No. No, they didn't. You know who they won this year?

Starting point is 01:24:45 Why y'all didn't do this yourself? You know who's doing all this shit to help them win it this year? Jalen Brown. You know why they wasn't doing it last year? Drew Holiday is a big-ass difference from Marcus Smart. Stop. Let's stop playing. Please stop.

Starting point is 01:24:57 Marcus Smart can't score. He can play great defense, but he can't do what Holiday do at all. Let's be real. I mean, Holiday and Porzingis both are contributors. There's a different roster. Do those two take away from what Jalen Brown does? I think they added

Starting point is 01:25:14 to what Jalen Brown does. They added to what the entire team does. So I didn't ask you that. I like the way y'all deflect. I'm going to let the I'm going to let the chat see. Have you ever seen a starting lineup

Starting point is 01:25:28 like that, really, pretty much? They can match up with any championship team. We're still talking about Jalen Brown, though. Okay, what did he do different than any other year? Yeah. He led the team to the championship. And why? How is he leading? How is he leading? Do y'all not know what leading is anymore?

Starting point is 01:25:44 Y'all be asking the question. What is leadership? What is leadership? If he's not going to tell us. What the fuck? Yeah, yeah. Please tell us. What's Marcus Bart doing with Drew Holiday did?

Starting point is 01:25:51 No. So we did ask the chat. Well, that doesn't make him that valuable. That's a big ass difference. Jalen Brown, though. That's a big ass difference. Jalen Brown stepped up, bro. We asked the chat who should have won finals MVP.

Starting point is 01:26:02 I don't care. 70% said Jalen Brown. I'm just showing some love. 70% said what? 77% said Jalen Brown. All of a sudden, you don't care what the chat say. have won finals MVP. 70% said Jalen Brown. I'm just showing some love. 70% said what? All of a sudden you don't care what the chat say. That's weird. I want him to finish what leadership means, man. Let him finish what leadership. Leadership. As a

Starting point is 01:26:16 player, your leadership is what you do by example, what you do in practice off the court. And you don't have no answer for it. You don't know nothing. And what you do and what you show the people you do on the court. But you said Jalen Brown was never a leader until this year.

Starting point is 01:26:30 Who said that? He only became a leader when they won. I didn't say that. That's what you're saying. You said, oh, Taylor led them all them years. But they said, him, Brown was your team.

Starting point is 01:26:39 You were in front now. Who said that? Who said that? Him. The team said that, bro. The team said that. Once the team changed, the whole team changed. And now... You holler they said that? The team said that. The team said that. The whole team changed. Drew Holiday said that. He said,

Starting point is 01:26:49 Jason Kidd said this and this and this. He's like, I don't see a lie in that. Jalen Brown is our best player. But do that mean you're the leader? Is this the same dude that was laughing at us all with the left hand and he had to do all that? Same guy. At the beginning of the season,

Starting point is 01:27:04 this had nothing to do with his team. This guy. Same guy. At the beginning of the season, at the beginning of the season, this had nothing to do with his team. This was all Tatum. When did it switch to Brown? What do you mean, when did it switch? What? Excuse me? Excuse me?

Starting point is 01:27:14 What did you just say? What narrative you just set up? I'm asking, what narrative you just set up? When did it switch to Brown? Because at the beginning of the season, there wasn't no beginning of the season. It was Brown the whole way. Whole season. It was Jalen Brown the whole way. Whole season.

Starting point is 01:27:25 It was Jalen Brown the whole way. The whole way. Rashad, Jason Tatum, sixth in the MVP voting, first team All-NBA. Jalen Brown did not make an All-NBA team. We do not agree with that. With how dominant the Celtics squad was. Voters did not prioritize winning. Jalen Brown.

Starting point is 01:27:40 It's your turn, bro. What are you trying to say? I don't get it. What are you saying? It's your turn to be the leader of the team? say? I don't get it. What are you saying? It's your turn to be the leader of the team? Yes. Are we going to listen to you? We're going to lead by example.

Starting point is 01:27:50 You're going to lead by example. I'm going to say that Brown got mad once he didn't make the first call. I'm going to be the best two-way player on this team. I'm going to guard both sides of the ball and show y'all. I'm going to show y'all that we're going to do it this way. He didn't make the all defense, though. I don't know, man. I think that's the narrative. He said I didn't make it all defense though. I don't know, man. I think that's the narrative.

Starting point is 01:28:05 He said I didn't get this. He said I didn't get this and I didn't get this. These are the two things that I panned out to come into the season to do. To win, get on an all defensive team, to try to get on all NBA,

Starting point is 01:28:21 but to be the best two-way player. He said that. I didn't get none of those credits for none of that. Okay. So now he got Eastern Conference and Finals MVP, which then comes in to say, hey man, this is everything that I worked for. He hit a big shot. This is everything I worked for. But what I'm saying is, when did he become the leader, is what I'm asking.

Starting point is 01:28:38 I want him to just answer the question. Let's just say he became the leader in, what do you call that? Training camp? You want to call that training camp? Oh, my God. You want to call that training camp? Okay, because the media will say, well, he's the leader because he was awarded these awards. He was an all-star, and he was this.

Starting point is 01:28:57 I just want your answer. As a team, in training camp, this dude is talking the most. No, no, no. This dude is telling us why we're going to go to zero. You're Holl year holiday in Horford man, they're the captains of the team Who they do a drew drew Too much For five years. What did I say about the best player if you come to? What did Tillman say about Tatum what What did Tillman say about Tatum?

Starting point is 01:29:25 I didn't know Tatum plays this kind of defense. Did he not say that? What did he say? He said, I didn't know Tatum didn't play. We didn't know he played this type of defense until I got here. That's what he said about Tatum. See, I don't like that you run narratives. People run narratives on what you want people to think.

Starting point is 01:29:42 What did Drew say? We watched the real. What did Drew say? Drew wasn't going time. Tell me, what did Drew say? Drew wasn't going to say nothing bad about Brown, though. We watched in real time Luka getting his ass busted throughout the playoffs. You cut up a few highlights that make him look like defense. Then the whole world says he's a great defensive player. No.

Starting point is 01:30:02 For one thing. The media. No. The whole world didn't say none of that shit. It's the media that y'all watch. Y'all keep saying the shit that the media's saying is what is being said, and that's not true.

Starting point is 01:30:15 That's a narrative y'all running with. You're running with a narrative you don't even want to run with in the first place. So the narrative is Jason or Jalen Brown was the best player throughout the whole season. Says Drew Holiday. No, I'm talking about you.

Starting point is 01:30:29 What are you saying? Fuck what I said. The nigga that played with him said it. The nigga that played with him. I'm not pushing nothing. You're the one pushing. I'm not pushing anything. I'm reiterating what someone said.

Starting point is 01:30:38 Don't reiterate what you say. Drew Holiday said he's our best player. Because of what? A question that was asked to him He go say no, he's not I don't agree That's what a real one Drew holidays a real one. Oh man. Come on man. So he faking Man, he makes it. Come on. He also he makes it. He also got for your teammate. Yes. Okay, I don't I

Starting point is 01:31:03 Don't you not a good? Okay, I'm not gonna lie to you. You can't lie for your teammate? Yes. Okay, I don't. I don't. Well, you're not a good teammate then. I can't believe you. Am I gonna lie to you? You can't lie for me? No. But Drew also... I'm gonna keep it real with you, nigga. I'm gonna lie for you.

Starting point is 01:31:12 I'm gonna keep it real with you, nigga. Drew also... In front of the world? You ain't gonna lie for me? I'm gonna pull your pants up, man. You ain't gonna lie for me in front of the world? Come on, man. Whatever.

Starting point is 01:31:20 Drew also updated that statement after the game, said, I'm not picking either one. That ain't no update. That ain't no fucking update. I was looking for the word. That ain't no update. That means I'm standing on what I said. I'm just not going to get in between it.

Starting point is 01:31:34 So which one is a lie then? If you say I'm not going to pick either one. He made two statements. Which one is a lie? Because he already picked one. Clearly. Then he came back and said, I'm not going to pick another one. Because y'all trying to make me pick another side.

Starting point is 01:31:46 So you can't take one as a trooper and another one as a... I've already said it. You already got me on paper saying that this nigga... I'm not going to answer it again so y'all can reiterate that I'm saying it. You heard what I said the first time. But he didn't say that. He did. He changed.

Starting point is 01:32:01 What'd he say? What'd he say? Bryce, if you ask pick A, if you you okay, then you switch it in pick B Which one is the real answer? Yeah a Also, you want okay, so that means you're wrong in everything you do because you you pick Celtics in seven, right? Then it'll mean the Celtics didn't win in seven, but they won so I said all right regardless of where I pick, I'm saying seven right. You said seven. You said seven. So I was wrong, right? Yes.

Starting point is 01:32:26 But who won? Celtics. OK, so what was the end goal? They win in how many? So they didn't win in this, but they still won. That means I still won. So you're 1 and 1. No, that means no, no, no.

Starting point is 01:32:38 You made two predicaments on that one. And I won one. You made two predictions. You're 1 and 1. The only person that's 2 and 0 is the person who said Boston Celtics and made two predictions. You're one and one. The only person that's two and oh is the person who said Boston Celtics and four and one. That is two and oh.

Starting point is 01:32:49 Oh, you mean you? So I'm not right, but you're right. That's crazy. Because that's a fact. So you said the only person that's right. No, there's...

Starting point is 01:33:03 You can't... Like with you and Kenyon, you can't say that you's right. The fact, no, there's, you can't, like with you and Kenyon, you can't say that you are right in this statement, but you don't want to say you're wrong in this statement. So you was one and one, right? You said Porzingis was going to get the ball down low and pound it inside. He said he was going to just shoot. He said he was going to shoot just jumpers.

Starting point is 01:33:22 So you was wrong in that. He said he was going to have 20 points. He was wrong in that, and then you said he was going to shoot just jumpers. So you was wrong in that. You said he was going to have 20 points. You was wrong in that. And then you said he was going to have 20. Right. So you was one and one. Kenya was one and one. You can't brag about your win.

Starting point is 01:33:36 If I was right, I can't. What do you mean? You're one and one. But I was right. One and one. How do you say I can't brag about my win when I was right? So he was right too. You ain't telling him he can't brag about his win?

Starting point is 01:33:46 You're one and one, dog. He was right. What do you mean? He's bigger than you. I'm right. I'm right. What do you mean? I was right.

Starting point is 01:33:51 You can't be two and ten and just talk about the two wins. Talk about the ten losses. Why would I talk about the ten losses when I won? What would be the point? I'm confused. I need body bag for all y'all. Motherfucker. He did ten questions. He's a motherfucker. I got an F, but I got two all y'all. He did 10 questions.

Starting point is 01:34:05 I got an F, but I got two right. Okay, I get what you mean. He was sitting there saying, no, I can't do that. But if the biggest question was, people got to take the wins and the losses. Take the wins and losses. So let's talk a little Jason Tatum here. Made some history this postseason. One of the best players in the world.

Starting point is 01:34:23 So Tatum joins Larry Bird, Hakeem, Duncan. Who? Larry Bird, Hakeem, Tim Duncan, LeBron, who did it three times. Who did? Who? Excuse me. Excuse me.

Starting point is 01:34:33 Let me host. Tatum joins Larry Bird, Hakeem, Duncan, LeBron, and Joker's only player. No, I thought you said Jason Tatum. Weird. You mean Jalen Brown. Jalen Brown did it, right? No.

Starting point is 01:34:44 So say it correctly for the best player on the team. Say it for the people in the back. Okay, say Jalen Brown is the first player to lead the NBA champion. So for the people in the back, Tatum joins Larry Bird, Akeem, Duncan, LeBron, and Joker as the only players to lead the NBA champion in playoff scoring, rebounds, and assists, but is the first in this group to not win finals MVP. Yeah, that's correct. So like I pointed out, Tatum averaged 22, 8 rebounds, 7 assists in the finals.

Starting point is 01:35:11 And we also got to give him some love too. He passes Kobe for the most playoff points before age 27. Oh my God, don't do that. So Tatum has 2711 points in the 130th year of playoff game. You want this black and brown for your nerves, man? Calm your nerves, man. I'm not a stat man. Stat man.

Starting point is 01:35:30 Yeah, that's me. I don't get it. I don't get it. I don't get the reference. I'm just giving you. Y'all scrambling over there? I got the bag. Y'all both can get in the bag.

Starting point is 01:35:38 No, no, no. I don't like that. What y'all scrambling for? You don't got to scramble to get in the bag. Damn, I don't like that. Y'all don't got to scramble. I've been calling him the mama coach. That's the mama Brian.

Starting point is 01:35:47 Before the age of 27. I like how that little fine print. You see, I watch everything. Before the age of 27. I pointed that out. I like the fine print. But let's talk about Tatum. Impressive resume at just 26 years old. NBA champ. Four-time All-NBA selection, including three straight first teams. Five-time

Starting point is 01:36:04 All-Star. So why didn't they do it before the age of 26? Hmm? Why didn't they do it before? They didn't have that record. Huh? Because Kobe has that record. Kobe has that record. By the age of 26?

Starting point is 01:36:16 Yeah. But it said by the age of 27 right there. Yeah, before you turn 27. So the fact that he's 26 is like why you would do that. So that means? You wouldn't do it before you turn 26 if you're already 26. By the age of 26, right? Before age 27.

Starting point is 01:36:33 Before. Okay. Oh. So 26, 364 days or less. You got some more playoff points to go too. So next year when he's 27, what is it going to be? I don't know. Before you turn 28.

Starting point is 01:36:48 Okay, so you don't even need to use your real... Your in-house voice. That's your inside voice, huh? I'm inside. So Tatum also the fastest Celtic to amass 10,000 career points. We give Tatum his love. I'm not trying to get in the... Who?

Starting point is 01:37:04 Oh, my God. Hey, man, I'm not trying to get in the- Who? Oh my God. Hey man, say it again for the people in the back. I'm just confused. I'm confused. Man. Hey Steve, you got to stop doing that. You know I can hear you, bro. Who was there first?

Starting point is 01:37:16 You're in my ear. You can't keep doing that. And you can't keep doing that either. I'm trying to get my- I'm just reading some Jason Christopher Tatum. How many times I got to say? I'm just giving Jason Christopher Tatum some love. No, I'm just trying to figure out what you're talking about.

Starting point is 01:37:27 Oh, killing you. You keep saying the wrong thing. Man, you keep using the wrong narrative. Deuces, daddy. Deuces, daddy. Okay, it's just the narrative you keep using. St. Louis legend. You keep saying Tatum's doing all this shit.

Starting point is 01:37:42 It's just confusing, right? What else he do? Because he was there a second, right? He did come a year later. Okay, and what'd he do? I couldn't hear it. Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. Brown came first?

Starting point is 01:37:54 No way. Yeah. Man. All right, come on, man. So, okay, go back to what you said. Hey, host, man, damn. Come on, hey, come on. Hey, host, man.

Starting point is 01:38:04 I don't like to see all this. I don't want to disrespect Brown, but come on. Gentlemen, it's June 10th tomorrow. Can we unite? Can you host? Brown came first. Can we emancipate Arkansas? No, Brown's supposed to be the leader if he came first already.

Starting point is 01:38:14 Didn't Shaq come first? Who? Didn't Shaq come first? Yeah. Shaq did come first. And he was a leader. And he was a leader. Shaq won all the finals MVP.

Starting point is 01:38:21 What happened at the end? Kobe got his ass up. Is that about it? Yeah. Got your ass up out of here. Kobe got his ass out. Is that about it? Yeah. Got your ass out of here. It's my team now. About that time. Is it move around time?

Starting point is 01:38:33 No. You going to get fouled out of here? Shut up. Why? Why would you do that? You know what I'm saying? You going to get hit? Who going to pass the ball in the corner?

Starting point is 01:38:40 Man. It is not move around time in Boston. Who going to break the defense? I said if they lost, it was move around. If they lost, it It is not move around time in Boston. We're going to break the defense. I said if they lost it was move around. If they lost it might have been move around.

Starting point is 01:38:48 They definitely got to stay around. They definitely got to stay around. Make them look good. Let's give Tatum some flowers as well. He did not win

Starting point is 01:38:56 Eastern Conference every P. He did not win finals every P. He won his chip. So thoughts on Tatum this postseason and in the finals?

Starting point is 01:39:11 I need at least one big three champion to answer the question. We got three on the count. All that vouching ain't no voucher. You're asking all the questions. Oh, shit. I thought we were just about to read off more stats. I was confused. So, what happened?

Starting point is 01:39:23 What was the question? What was the question? I'm about to... No, I need this back. No, I really like this. I like you talking about Tatum. Thoughts on Tatum this postseason and in the finals? If you take away the voices against Tatum, he did everything he needed to do to get them to win the championship.

Starting point is 01:39:44 We were talking about a team who who's who basically swept or gentlemen swept Everyone in the Eastern Conference right and the narrative that he wasn't playing up to par Was just really just insane because it lets you know that no one really likes the ideal of greatness. No one likes the idea of a team dominating because for some reason when it comes to domination, we decide to tear down the two best players, put them against each other. And it's happened when LeBron James was in the championship. Whose team is it? Jack Coby.

Starting point is 01:40:31 Jack Coby. You got Katie and Steph. You end up putting these guys against each other knowing that it's real emotions and this stuff does creep inside. So the fact that they won the championship with all the narratives that was being pushed to separate them, that's in itself its own victory. Right? That the first two people that hugged was those two.

Starting point is 01:40:54 Right? To show solidarity. No matter who won, they won the one that counted for both of their careers. And that's all that's important. Oh man. And I feel like, can you imagine if they would have lost? Oh, they would have been getting killed.

Starting point is 01:41:12 I just, like I've been saying. Imagine if they lost to who? Just lost in general. Hell no. They can't lose, right? They can't lose. Not to that team. But, I'm just saying, the narrative is crazy.

Starting point is 01:41:30 Why do we, like, why do we do this to a team that's winning? We try to make them lose. Like, we're making them lose in the locker room. Dallas not doing it. We doing it. He's trying to paint two people against each other. Because we live in a universe that's always on negativity. Man, like, this is crazy. You can always find something to hate.

Starting point is 01:41:45 Man. You paint the picture, then talk about it. Right. What are you talking about? The fact that we... What are you talking about? What? The fact that they're bringing up Holliday.

Starting point is 01:41:53 You heard of Holliday? You know how many times he probably heard that shit? All his homies said, man, you heard Holliday, what Holliday said. That shit creeps in. They're like, don't creep in. That's up with this shit. They just have everybody else saying, yeah, we was saying the same shit. No, no, you can't.

Starting point is 01:42:09 How do you say that? You came in before me, and I'm still, I'm not about to even do that. I'm not even going to let you do that to me to paint the picture that Brown is ass and Taylor was better. They're both great. So what you just said, nobody else is saying it. That team right there. You're saying it. That team right there. You're saying it. That team right there

Starting point is 01:42:26 could play against any championship team. But it seemed like the media tried to push that narrative by not putting Jalen Brown, a member of the best team in the NBA. I don't know how you don't

Starting point is 01:42:34 put Jalen Brown in all NBA. You remember, I have him in mind. I'm like, this is crazy. I was still locked in in old ways like the best team and the guy like wins MVP. I remember y'all said that ain't the new style. Yeah, that ain't the new style. Yeah, like I was still locked into always the best team and the guy wins MVP. I remember y'all said that ain't the new style.

Starting point is 01:42:47 Yeah, that ain't the new style. Yeah, I was still locked into that. I thought Tatum had a chance to win MVP, but he was, what, fifth in voting or something? And Tatum not considered a top five player in the NBA based on MVP voting. That's crazy. And he made first team, though, right? But he made first team on the NBA. They just contradict themselves.

Starting point is 01:43:06 In a position list. First team is the five best players. MVP voting, five best players. They just contradict themselves. Top 15 should get. So the fact that they contradict themselves, I'm not allowed to have whatever list that I make up. Rashad, we hold you to a higher standard than the square media.

Starting point is 01:43:24 I'm just saying, if you're not going to go by the square media's statistics, consensus, that's out the window. When I make my shit, it's out the window, too. When I got my own opinion of what I wanted to be, instead of just listening to what they say, I'm

Starting point is 01:43:39 picking my picks. And I picked this nigga right here over this nigga. But we still have a problem. We still have a problem. You know why we have a problem? Because you don't agree with my list. I don't. Exactly.

Starting point is 01:43:52 So it ain't me hating on your list. It's you hating on my list. The way you trying to put it is crazy. You hating on my list. The way you trying to put it is crazy. I can put it any way I want. Like, oh, this is your team now. And we just all...

Starting point is 01:44:04 And take it over the top. Come on, like, come on. That's crazy. Yes. That's want. Like, oh, this is your team now, and we just all... And take it over the top. Come on, like, come on, that's crazy. Yes. That's crazy. You can't... That's not crazy. That is crazy. Because it's the truth.

Starting point is 01:44:13 No. It's the truth. They got a whole new... Hey, three years ago, three years ago, we had it in your hands. We can't say that. It was Brown's hands. It was Brown's hands, because Brown was here before. If the person come, you got paid before.

Starting point is 01:44:24 Three years ago, it was Brown's team. And you was here before. Three years ago, it was Brown's team. He was following you. No, it was Browns. Brown was here before. If the person come, you got paid before. Three years ago. It was Browns team. Three years ago. It was Browns team. He was following you. No, it was Browns team. So this year, they following me. No, it's Browns team.

Starting point is 01:44:32 He made it. It's Browns team. That's all I'm saying. What I'm saying is it's got to be Browns team like you. No, it's not. Who's older? He took it. He took it back.

Starting point is 01:44:40 But he didn't lead in no stats at all. Not one stat. Not one stat. You keep bringing up stats. Even when you win finals. You keep bringing up stats. Stats. win finals. You keep bringing up stats. Stats. Because you don't have nothing to go on.

Starting point is 01:44:49 What do you go on? What we watch. What do we watch, man? We watch the nigga play both sides of the ball. We watch him be aggressive on offense. So you didn't think Taylor won that game last night for him? Yes. Okay, I'm about to say.

Starting point is 01:45:01 One game, bro. We're talking about the series. Okay, game one. That's why he didn't win the MVP because the series went to Brown Okay, who had a better series between the two Jason don't give me don't Wait, wait. It's so hard. No, no, no, no. For me, I promise. It's so hard. In what category? In what category? Because Tatum didn't shoot the ball well. I'm not even talking about offense. I'm just talking about who do you think had the better series.

Starting point is 01:45:30 Don't act like the crowd was just guarding. I'm not. I'm not. I'm not acting like that. I'm just asking you a question. Hold on. Which one do you believe deserved out of the whole series? Not just that last game.

Starting point is 01:45:39 Who deserved? Who deserved the MVP? I would say. Jason Tatum deserves the MVP. Who was the best player? To me, it's hard. Hold on. The MVP? I would say... Jason Tatum deserves the... Who was the best player in the... For me, it's hard. Hold on. The best...

Starting point is 01:45:48 I would say... Because I need to answer your question. No, you're changing my question so that you can answer it your own. Okay, what is your question? I would say... Out of the whole series... Out of the whole series. Who is...

Starting point is 01:46:00 Who deserves the MVP between the two of them? It's hard. The guy? The guy? But Tatum deserved 3-4 the last two games. No, no, no, no. them? It's hard. The guy, the guy, the guy. I'm not saying Brown deserves it for one, two, but Tatum deserves three, four, the last two games. No, no, no, no. It's hard for me. The guy who's sacrificing his points to get everybody involved.

Starting point is 01:46:13 So the guy who scored, he led the team in scoring. He led the team in rebounding. He led the team in assists. And he also played defense, right? So that's Tatum. Now if we go Brown, he was second in scoring, third in assists,

Starting point is 01:46:33 fourth in rebound, and we can say he was number what, two in defense? His impact was close. What I'm trying to figure out, what were we going off of in this sense? Who was the best player i would say impact the fact that we are basketball players and you can distinguish whether or not who would the better this that's why i'm asking such a simple question one i'm asking such as and you're

Starting point is 01:46:56 throwing all these stats in because i'm trying to figure out what i'm just like i'm asking a simple question what is he what are we going? Because clearly, one is creating the offense for the other. One is creating the offense for the other. Do you hear that again? I'm driving. I'm passing it. I know where you are. You're in the fucking corner.

Starting point is 01:47:17 So I'm passing you the ball in the corner. I don't want to do this, but I'm passing you the ball in the corner. So all... You hear this, man? You hear this, man? Say that again. What was the stat? You do this, but I'm passing you the ball in the corner. So all Game three back one shot. Okay. That was a great shot. Okay. That was a great shot Now what was that Tatum stat? He insisted on how many? He did. He insisted on nine of Brown's 30 field goals in the finals. So 30 of his field goals came, nine of 30 of them. Nearly 33% came.

Starting point is 01:47:54 Now, here's a stat. Because we've seen Drew Holiday pass it about. How many of his baskets was created by himself in the offense? Right? So this is not fast break. We haven't done that. That's not fast break. You get what I'm saying? Does he have to do all of that for your criteria

Starting point is 01:48:14 for you to make a decision as a basketball mom? Can I ask you a question? People don't want that. What makes him the best player in the series? Your question. you answer it. He played both sides of the ball at a very high level. That affected the game.

Starting point is 01:48:32 He was very impactful. Wait, wait, so Tatum didn't play or Drew Holiday didn't play? I'm asking. So Jason Tatum didn't play defense? It wasn't just him. No, I'm just wondering. Hey, did that come out my mouth? But that's the narrative.

Starting point is 01:48:47 It ain't no narrative. No, it's just this is a Analysis we are and now we're analyzing the game from a perspective of what did you see? What did you see? What did you see it? Okay, so but if you don't like what I see it don't mean and I didn't see it I don't see it cuz you didn't like I need him to answer the fucking question. Oh Just a simple question like you told me but you not answer my simple question. Both sides of the floor Can you please explain that because the guy averaged 30 so please explain? What's that? Are you using or anything that says he was playing both sides of the floor? Versus the other because you're not giving the other one credit either, right?

Starting point is 01:49:26 So what makes him? Layman's terms? Yes. Both sides, please. Okay. Jalen Brown is picking Luka Doncic up 94 feet. Okay. That means when he catches it and he dribbles it, he's there.

Starting point is 01:49:39 Every single time that he's there, it's a problem where he needs to call for a pick and roll to get him off of him. So majority of the game, throughout the series, I'm calling for a pick and roll to get this guy off of me. I'm trying to be impactful because I'm not even the best defensive player on the team. Drew is. I thought you said he was. No, I did not. And I already had clips to back that up

Starting point is 01:50:06 so Jalen Brown is the best player on the team who wants to guard the best player on the other time you can't be there He's not the case Not the best defender nor not the best offensive player who said that who said that who said that But he's who said that like? Who said any of that? Not me. It didn't come out of my mouth. So you just put it in me.

Starting point is 01:50:27 Let me finish. Both sides of the ball, he's doing both things on both sides of the ball. Which gives you leverage. So first you said he was the best defender. Now you said he's not. I never said he was the best defender. So now he's not the best defender. I never said it.

Starting point is 01:50:44 So now he's what, two? Drew Holliday's the best defender on their team. Okay, so Jalen Brown is the second best defender. For sure. Okay. Over White? Over White? Yeah.

Starting point is 01:50:54 But Derrick White made second team. I know. Remember the Square Media is voting this, remember? The Square Media does. I get to have my own. Okay, so who's the best scorer on the team? Jason Tatum is the best scorer. Wait, wait, come on.

Starting point is 01:51:08 You can't keep... Come on now. You just said Brown. No, I did. I said he's the best player, bro. Why y'all keep putting words in my mouth? All right. The question was never asked is who's the best offensive player to me.

Starting point is 01:51:19 I did. No, you didn't. I know. I just made a statement. No, he didn't. You made a statement. You didn't ask me a question, bro. I said, so he's not the best rebounder on the team.

Starting point is 01:51:26 He's not the best rebounder in his position. He's not the best assist guy on his team. Not the best defender. Statistically. Not the best scorer. But he becomes the best player? Statistically, right? All of these things from you are derived from stats.

Starting point is 01:51:41 Not from me. I don't derive all that shit from stats. What are you doing? Because I'm watching him play. I don't derive all that shit from stats. I'm watching him play. I'm watching the game, bro. I don't have to sit here and look how many stats he has. I'm watching him affect the game.

Starting point is 01:51:56 Just like you said, he's very impactful. Impactful, yeah. I will say that. Everybody on that team is impactful. Bro, but you know what impactful means, though, right? When you're impacting the game. For me, it was hard. When you were an impactful player, did you know what impactful means, though, right? When you're impacted in the game? That's why, for me, it was hard. When you were an impactful player, did it impact the stats?

Starting point is 01:52:11 If it was based off the one and two game, he for sure had it. I'm sorry, it was clear. Draymond Green was impactful for that championship, everyone? Yeah. Was it showing up on the stats? Or Iguodala. He was impactful. He won MVP, finals MVP. Did it show up on the stats sheets, though?

Starting point is 01:52:20 Iguodala was finals MVP. Did it show up on the stats sheets? No. All right. Iguodala was finals MVP. Was he the best player on the team? Thank you for proving my point, though. They don't to show up in the stat sheets. No, well, you know, I was probably me But he's the best man. Thank you for my point though They don't always show up on the stage, but is he the best point? I said what they have won it you off it. I said

Starting point is 01:52:38 Did I ever say that take you for your word. He's doing that for his goals. I don't even take you for your word. I did see that, though. That was crazy. You said, I respect Reggie Miller's legacy more than LeBron's. I never said that Reggie Miller was better. See what he just did? Did you see what he just did? I don't give a fuck how it came off.

Starting point is 01:52:59 If I didn't say it, don't act like I said it. I didn't say that. You know what? Him and his minions are going to run around and be like, you said. I didn't say it. Don't act like I said it. I didn't say that. You know what? Him and his minions going to run around and be like, you said, I didn't say nothing like that.

Starting point is 01:53:09 That's basically what you said, though. Don't say basically what I said. No, no, no. That's how I assume, though. What did I say? That's how I assume.

Starting point is 01:53:14 You can't assume it if you're hearing me say this and then you're going in your mind and you're saying, oh, he didn't say that. He said what I thought he said. Nigga, I just said what I said. So what did you say?

Starting point is 01:53:24 I said, I do not said. Nigga, I just said what I said. So what did you say? I said, I do not respect LeBron's legacy as much as I respect Reggie Miller's. Okay. I didn't ask to do it better. Okay. Better? Does that mean that Reggie Miller's better than LeBron James?

Starting point is 01:53:40 To me, I would think so. So basically, anyone you don't like, anyone you don't like, you have a narrative for. I'm just at a different tier level when I speak English. When I speak perfect English and I say these things out of my mouth, and then they're like, well, you didn't say that. You said this. I respect Ray Allen over...

Starting point is 01:54:02 I respect who? I respect Reggie Miller, Larry Bird, Magic Johnson, the guys who never left their team. I respect Clyde Drexler over Michael Jordan. Isaiah Thomas. I respect Clyde Drexler over Michael Jordan. So what's wrong with that? What's wrong with that?

Starting point is 01:54:18 That's what he said he better. But what's wrong with you saying that? I said he better. Right? What's wrong with you saying that? Nothing. Nothing. So why you making it seem like it's a bad thing to say he's better. Right? What's wrong with you saying that? Nothing. Nothing. So why you making it seem

Starting point is 01:54:26 like it's a bad thing to say? It is. Why? Don't ever fix your mouth to say Reggie Miller in anything with LeBron James. No, ever.

Starting point is 01:54:34 Nick. That's what I'm saying. Nick. Don't you ever disrespect LeBron James like that. No. Or what?

Starting point is 01:54:41 Or what? Or what? Or what? I'm going to make a phone call. Or what? All what? Or what? Or what? Oh, my God, we can't talk about what you want to talk about when people ask you a question. You got to say what they want you to say. No, don't say that.

Starting point is 01:54:57 Oh, man, don't say that shit. You got to say what I want you to say, nigga. Say this. Come on, man. You know I'm my own, man. You know I'm my own, man. Because I'm my own man. Because he tries to... The problem is not what you believe. No, the problem is not what you believe.

Starting point is 01:55:12 You can believe whatever you want. Obviously not. Do not try to use what you believe as an actual fact. And you take away actual facts. How did I make it like a fact? No, you try to take away actual facts by how you feel and what you believe. What did I take away? You can't do that. What did I make it like a fact? How did I make it like a fact? No, you try to take away actual facts by how you feel and what you believe. What did I take away? You can't do that.

Starting point is 01:55:27 What did I? Like if someone, if I say someone leads in scoring, rebounding, he's assisting on this man's point. And then you say, well, that doesn't matter. That doesn't matter. If he sits in the corner, you can't do that. I can do that because I'm watching the game. I'm watching the game. You know what? I'm watching. And I do that because I'm watching the game. I'm watching the game. You know what?

Starting point is 01:55:47 I'm watching it. And I see something different. Give me the video. I want him to explain what he's watching. Video, explain what you're watching. Since you're watching the game. I'm watching the game. Okay. Watch.

Starting point is 01:55:57 What is he doing? These are your highlights. No, no. These are my highlights. You're not going to say, oh, that was Jason Tatum to pass on the ball. It wasn't Drew Holiday. Oh, this is Jason Tatum to pass in the bar with you holiday Oh, this is Jason Tatum's doing the ball. He's going he's the man, right? Somebody

Starting point is 01:56:20 Every point of his came from somebody else yesterday. Now, can you please explain to everyone? Everyone watching. Stop laughing, moving them shoulders like that. Stop doing that. Can you explain to me everything that's about to happen? Just explain the game from your knowledge and how someone is impactful. I'm a legal. Show me the impact of it.

Starting point is 01:56:39 I'm legally blind. I said the first two games. I'm legally blind. I'm legally blind. I'm legally blind. I said the first two games. I'm legally blind. I'm legally blind. I'm legally blind. I'm legally blind. I just want to see impactful. Just I want you to, you like talking basketball.

Starting point is 01:56:50 Show me impactful. I just like to say crazy. I want to watch these highlights. Crazy shit. I just impactful. That's crazy. What's crazy? Just show me impactful.

Starting point is 01:56:58 What is impactful? The regular LeBron was crazy. Right? Drive. Can you please slow it down? What's crazy about it? Let's slow it down. You know that's crazy. You want me to go you please slow it down? What's crazy about it? Let's slow it down. No, that's crazy.

Starting point is 01:57:07 You want me to go into it? I could dive into it. Yeah, please. That's right. Dive into it. All right, so someone has the ball. Everyone sucks it. He's still trying to prove an old point.

Starting point is 01:57:15 I'm trying to figure out the impact. The dude with his hands on his shorts, that's the impactful person? I don't know. This ain't the whole game. This is like three clips of the whole game. All his points came off of somebody else gave it to him yesterday. But the first couple games, he was driving and dunking and shit. That's why I say it's hard.

Starting point is 01:57:30 I'm talking... The third and fifth game is Tatum. And the first two is Brown. This is half-court offense. I said the first two was Brown and the third and five is Tatum. That's why I said it. Again, when you're watching the game, when we're in the half-c court offense, who has the ball?

Starting point is 01:57:51 But the first. Where is the other guy sitting? What I'm saying is when you're talking about impactful, it's impactful sitting in the corner waiting for a shot. It was impactful driving the ball. I thought he was a real. You can't do this to Brown. I'm not trying to do this to Brown. But I want him to explain.

Starting point is 01:58:07 I want him to explain impactful. That's all I want. That's impactful. See, you're making him talk different. He don't want you to be on my side, bro. Show me impactful. He does not want you to be on my side. No, I want him to stop.

Starting point is 01:58:20 He don't want him to be on your side, bro. Keep interrupting him. I want him to tell me what impactful means in basketball terms. The person who's driving and the defense collapses and he passes it, or the guy who's getting the pass and hitting the shot. Which part is impactful? Who is impactful in the game? The one who's coming down.

Starting point is 01:58:40 The guy who actually hits the shot. Is impactful? Yes. Okay. That's all I need to know. Yeah, because if he don't hit the shot, it's shot. Is impactful? Yes. Okay. That's all I need to know. Yeah. Because if he don't hit the shot, it's no impact, right?

Starting point is 01:58:48 Okay. He's just another guy in the corner, right? And then Tatum is just out there trying to make a play, right? Looking like a regular nigga, right? So it's not an impact until I hit the shot. Facts. So why you not just making your own shot right there?

Starting point is 01:59:04 Why you got to get to the point where you even got to pass it? Stop, man. We had balls. So why you not just making your own shot right there? Why you got to get to the point where you even got to pass it? Stop, man. We act like we can't catch balls. Stop. Why you not just shooting that thing like you was shooting in the other series? Just shooting that shit. Regardless of whatever your thoughts on Tatum Brown, up, down, left, right.

Starting point is 01:59:21 I'm just saying it makes, it makes, it makes, it makes. Now we know who's impactful. He said Reggie Miller. I know he said Reggie. But I know who's impactful now. We can now go down and say all the impactful players. Middleton is impactful because the guy who's driving, the guy who's driving, sucking the defense in,

Starting point is 01:59:40 that don't count no more. The guy who he passes it to, hit the shot. So, okay. I didn't know Tatum had all that. I ain't gonna lie. I didn't know Tatum could pass like that. I didn't know he did all that. You didn't know them teammates can get open like that? Get open? They can get open. Why are they open?

Starting point is 01:59:53 Because they gotta hit the shot. You know they gotta hit shots to get an assist, right? But still, I didn't know he did all that. I ain't gonna lie. I thought if Tatum was missing, that was his game. He... So you don't got no respect for Reggie Miller? No, it's not over LeBron. I'm a man.

Starting point is 02:00:11 So you taking Reggie Miller over LeBron? I used to love the way Reggie Miller catches you. But what does Reggie Miller do? No, that was a question. No, I'm not taking him. Okay, now be good. He said legacy. But why do I have to dumb it down to that length?

Starting point is 02:00:28 I got to dumb it all the way down to like, Reggie Miller never won, so how you going to take somebody else's legacy over Reggie Miller? So listen, this is what I'm saying. Reggie didn't have to do what he had to do. He had to do what LeBron had to do. What else was he going to do? He had to leave.

Starting point is 02:00:43 He didn't have to leave. Because everybody couldn't just... He didn't leave, bro. You can throw to do? He had to leave. He didn't have to leave. Oh, because everybody couldn't just... He didn't leave, bro. You can throw LeBron in anybody's system. He didn't leave, bro. You can't just throw Reggie Miller in anybody's system.

Starting point is 02:00:50 He didn't leave, bro. He didn't leave. He didn't leave, so... He came back and won. Reggie Miller never did that. He didn't leave three different times. He came back and won.

Starting point is 02:00:57 Okay, he didn't leave three different times. He came back and won. Hold on, hold on. He came back and won. Nah, we can just do it like this. You left your woman before. No, no, no.

Starting point is 02:01:04 Since Reggie Miller never left, right, all of his years, he was a five-time All-Star, a three-time All-NBA player in 19 years. Okay, whatever, how many years he played. Now let's do LeBron before he left. Let's see what legacy LeBron left before he left. Okay, before he left, he was one, two, three, four, five, six. So he's a six-time All-Star, six-time All-NBA. He was an MVP. So his legacy before he left was better than Reggie Miller's whole career.

Starting point is 02:01:39 Yep, yep. I agree. But what did it for me was when he left. So you're mad. So now you're mad. Basically, you're mad at him. You're a hater! Hater! Hater can't! That's what it is. So moving on. Moving on.

Starting point is 02:01:54 Facts. Facts. Moving on. Facts. Is that my new name? No, no. Facts. Facts.

Starting point is 02:02:02 Facts. Fuck you. About 26 minutes ago, for context purposes, about 26 minutes ago, we asked the chat, is it obvious? Not sure what we were asking what was obvious, but 69% said yes. Thank you, man. Not sure what was obvious at that point.

Starting point is 02:02:19 But I wanted to acknowledge the chat. Y'all niggas don't even know what's going on. When that number come back, and y'all be like, I don't know what that's for, but I'm going acknowledge the chat. Y'all niggas don't even know what's going on. When that number come back, and y'all be like, I don't know what that's for, but I'm going to laugh anyway. But me and the chat be like, 70%. 70%?

Starting point is 02:02:32 I ain't got no foot in my... Hey, stop. We at 70% with this shit. Like, you went from 48% to 70%. So, we had a lot of shit that we teased earlier in the show. It got way too turnt up in this very arena. But now we got more content for tomorrow, so we're going to keep it Celtics.

Starting point is 02:02:47 We got to give some love to Brad Stevens, picking up where Danny Ainge left off and building the Celtics into a championship team. So Stevens traded for Al Horford 2021, landed Derek White in the trade in 2022, got Porzingis and Holiday last offseason, making the difficult decision to trade former defensive player of the year Marcus Smart

Starting point is 02:03:03 to bring the unicorn to Beantown. Celtics' future is bright as they return at least their top seven players from this season. Brown under contract through 2028. Finals MVP, Jalen Brown. That didn't have a difference in the team? You thought that was just Brown becoming captain? Like, all that shit he just said.

Starting point is 02:03:22 Do you know what this move means. Do you know what this... You knew. Do you know what this move means? Yes. You don't know what that means yet. Wait, how long has it been? You don't know what that mean yet? International symbol for move around. You don't know what that means? That's what that mean, move the fuck around, my nigga.

Starting point is 02:03:37 That's what that mean. When you see me do that, you say, move around. Y'all been going with none of that. Went to the front office 2021. 2021, so three years. He's did all that in three years. So Adoka took over. Obviously, he had the situation.

Starting point is 02:03:50 He was a little too thirsty. Missoula, these past two seasons. But all those moves. I mean, that's impressive. Missoula, right? Missoula. Installed Missoula after he made Adoka dip. But South Future's bright turn,

Starting point is 02:04:04 at least their top seven players from this season. Brown under contract through 2028. Had that $300 million deal, which was the richest contract at that point. Tatum set to sign

Starting point is 02:04:11 the largest extension in NBA history this summer. How much is it? I think he can get $315 if I'm not mistaken. Damn. That's a lot of money.

Starting point is 02:04:19 Jason Tatum, go ahead and donate some to your friends on this side of the couch. Nine million more than me. So how long is the Celtics championship window? How long is the Celtics championship window? Leave me alone, nigga!

Starting point is 02:04:35 You heard that? But the looks. What is that? That's how they are in the locker room though, for real. That's how they are in the locker room. It's my team now. It's my team now. Dead ass. It's my team now, bro.

Starting point is 02:04:47 Dead ass. Hey, that little 9 million, that's cool. I didn't think what Jalen Brown got was. I think it's something. That ain't how he is. That's how he used to be. No. Somebody come in.

Starting point is 02:05:00 When Sean had to buy the Ferrari, he said, man, I'm going to buy two of those. You bought two Ferraris the next day. No, I had the Ferrari. We said I'm about to know He was showing off to it no damn He's wrong. So Jaylen Brown Brown side. Oh, it was my Back he got it made, and I got another one. No, no, no, no. No, no, because that's how it was. It wasn't Deshaun. No, it wasn't Deshaun. He threw his keys.

Starting point is 02:05:29 That wasn't Deshaun. It wasn't Deshaun. Because I got Deshaun to get the Maybach, and then a couple other people got it. And he just parked it in the locker room, in the thing, collecting dust. Oh, you didn't move it? You just left it. Just for people to look at it. But you know what's so funny?

Starting point is 02:05:44 The money thing is a thing. I remember when Larry Hughes was a free agent. So, you know, I signed my deal. It was five years, $64 million to come there. And Larry was supposed to have been an all-star that year when he was a free agent. Money is a thing. And I'm like, what the fuck is going on? Why didn't we sign him?

Starting point is 02:06:07 And they said, oh, we thought you was going to get mad because he was asking for more money. Yeah, you do. I remember when somebody, I ain't going to say that sign. It could have been somebody on the team sign and give yourself, you signed it for that little ass money. Yeah, the little ass money. You signed for that little ass money. Happy as hell little ass money. You signed for that little ass money.

Starting point is 02:06:25 Happy as hell. You know how... He don't know his worth. He don't know his worth. That ain't my problem. Nah, man. You got... Yeah, you know his little money.

Starting point is 02:06:36 Little money. Little money. Nah, but yeah, they didn't sign him back. And I'm like, yo, when I signed my deal, this is what I was making. This is what he's making. And this deal goes... They didn't. So Larry walked. Hey, this deal goes. They didn't. So Larry walked.

Starting point is 02:06:48 Jalen Brown. Jalen Brown fired 304 Tatum, now getting the 350. You heard of that little 9 million more than me? Closer to 11, but stop shooting that little shit. Stop shooting that little shit over here at me, boy. Nice finals MVP, bro, boy. You think he'll get that level for that finals MVP? What, he'll give up that 11?

Starting point is 02:07:10 He might give up 12 for that. Nah, nah, not him. Nah. Nah, he look... Hell nah. He don't care. Nah, I mean, that's what I'm saying. For his legacy, he needs it right now.

Starting point is 02:07:22 Like, it reminds me of when Dame was, you know, playing the way he was playing, and they wouldn't put him on an all-star team, an R&B team. There's a bunch of people that's been getting snapped out here. So is Brown on the USA team? No. That's what I'm saying. They're talking about Kawhi, but they're talking about Derek White

Starting point is 02:07:38 replacing Kawhi if the knee inflammation... Wow, Derek White and not Brown? What the... So he's third best on the team now. Which one Derek White and not Brian, what the? Not marketable. So he a third best on the team now. Which one is he? Is he the former or fifth? He not marketable. But ball handed with those with the teeth.

Starting point is 02:07:53 Not marketable. He more, okay, okay, okay. How can Gil not make it? You got Holiday, you got Taylor and Holiday. That's funny too. And then, let me see. Kirk Howard, Kirk Howard made it USA team. How can Gil not make it? You got Holiday. So you got Drew. You got Taylor and Holiday. Hey, Kurt Henry. That's one of two. And then they, let me see. Kurt Hire.

Starting point is 02:08:08 Kurt Hire made it USA Team. No, hell no. They already got Holiday. They already got Holiday. They don't pick a lot of good picks. They got Holiday. Over Drew, over Kyrie Irving. How many more?

Starting point is 02:08:19 Over Kyrie Irving. You pick who you picking. Come on, baby. Drew or Kyrie? Drew or Kyrie? They got Holiday. On the hot seat. Drew or Kyrie? So now they going to get White? Drew or Kyrie? So they say, you know what. Come on, man. They got holidays. Drew Akai. They got holidays. On the hot seat. Drew Akai.

Starting point is 02:08:25 So now they're going to get white? Drew Akai. So they say, you know what, man? All right. He gave you a little shit. Now look, man. You know you. You know you.

Starting point is 02:08:33 How many Celtics we supposed to have on the team? It's one pick left. Drew Akai. It's one pick left. Which one you picking? What you talking about? Drew or Akai. I'll be Drew what he just did. So you're not going Drew or Scott. I was saying Drew, what he just did.

Starting point is 02:08:46 So you're not going to... But look. Obviously Drew because of what he just did. I already got Tatum. I got Tatum. I got Tatum. They picked the team before this. I got my starter.

Starting point is 02:08:52 They picked the team before this. I got my starter. You know this, right? I got my starter. I just need to even out my bench. I need a defender here and somebody here. And we just going to go get Brown, but you know what? We're going to get Wright. Because you know what? We was going to get Wright.

Starting point is 02:09:05 They ain't going to get you. Because you can't get Wright. Can't get Wright. Wright is Wright. Hey, y'all can have it. Y'all can have it. I'm going to go Black Wall Street. You might as well.

Starting point is 02:09:13 Y'all motherfuckers go over there and try to beat the girl. How many times you got a pass to you in the corner? They don't make pass in the corner on USA team. They do. That's all they do. That's why they got to make it on the team. What you mean? They do the drive and kicks.

Starting point is 02:09:24 Corner. But how do you lose a... Okay, but... No, no, just wait. How do you lose a small forward and go after a guard? Why would you get brown? Why would you get brown? Why would you go after a guard?

Starting point is 02:09:40 They say, right, right, correct, and shit. Huh? Right, correct, and shot it, and shit. Huh? Riker, Karrade, and shot it. Your knees are brown and fat. Oh, my God, bro. I'm fucking around brown. I'm messing around brown. No, no, brown code.

Starting point is 02:09:53 We don't need no more corners. You got another one coming. You got another one coming. You got another one coming, right? Nah, bro, they ain't going to get brown. We do not know yet. You should get brown. But back to know yet. You should get Brown. But back to the question.

Starting point is 02:10:07 I had him on my team. Back to the question. So Brown had the Richards extension. Taylor about to surpass him this summer. We got that. We got that. And then Luka won't pass that. We got that.

Starting point is 02:10:17 How long? Yeah, we got that. Okay, but, you know, if everybody has their time to shine, let them live it up for the time being. How long is the Celtics championship window? You pay Luka more? Yeah. Tell you.

Starting point is 02:10:30 Cap is going to keep going. Cap does it automatically. How long is their window? From the style they play, I personally can't see them going back to back. You can't? From the style they play. I mean, you're talking about they play five out and just whoever gets it, just chuck a three. What's going to change, though?

Starting point is 02:11:02 Huh? What's going to change? Like, what's going to change, though? Huh? What's going to change? Like, what's going to change? It will take, like, a KD thing to Warriors for them to change. To beat them, I think. Kid, what you always point out, so we talked about the Nuggets last year. Returned most of that court this season. Did not get past the second round.

Starting point is 02:11:21 Seems like the Celtics are going to roll with this squad because they won the chip, but teams are always getting better. Bucks should be healthier next season. Embiid, hopefully. Neal won't be as janky next year. So the East is still going to be competitive. Pacers should get better. Magic will get better.

Starting point is 02:11:37 I mean, they're going to run through the East. Knicks? Knicks will get better. I mean, Boston's going to run through the East. That's just how the style... The Milwaukee's going to be better? Think about regular season. The style they play

Starting point is 02:11:53 going up, there's no real load up. So, sitting there shooting like even with this, they shot so many threes. They never had an actual great shooting percentage from three. They take in more than half of their shot There was no, they never had an actual great shooting percentage from three. Right? They'd taken more than half of their shot as coming from the three-point line.

Starting point is 02:12:11 Right? And you're up 20 and then you're down, you're up by two. The swings were so crazy in a sense where they let you back in the game because they settle a lot. They settle a lot. So, facts. Like, I mean, there were just flaws in the game that I just didn't see, right? You have a mismatch guy on you,

Starting point is 02:12:37 and you're taking a sidestep three. Oh, my God. Right, like, you guys have the biggest and most athletic group. Did y'all see the clip of Porzingis clowning Ted? They all do it. They all do it.

Starting point is 02:12:48 They took a long ass I see you trolling. You like to troll. I like that. You like to troll. Ooh, I hate you. I fucking hate you. No, so I don't.

Starting point is 02:12:57 Because they listen to you. They listen to you. So I can't even do nothing about that. I'm like, I'm hearing you. I hate you. So I see if they can understand their flaws and clean them up, right, clean them up next year, like Tatum really has to work on learning how to drive and jump off his one.

Starting point is 02:13:18 He's not a two-foot. Brown is a two-foot jumper, right? So when Brown goes in, he can power up. Jason Tatum loses his power trying to jump off two feet, right? So he needs to learn how to drive and take off. Both of them, like, for the most part, there's nobody back there. Brown is a both-foot. Yeah, yeah, yeah, he jumps off.

Starting point is 02:13:35 He don't want to. But there's no way that you guys should be settling as much as you do when you're so athletic in the fact that you play five out. Al Horford is in the corner, meaning the big, the people that's down there to challenge your shot, they're not athletic enough to really like affect you. So y'all can get so many layups. And if you guys attack more, you don't have to take 28 footers, right? There's no way you should be taking a jumper on Keebler. Keebler. Keebles. There's no way on this

Starting point is 02:14:10 green guy, whoever Keebler is guarding, you settle for a three-pointer. That's his name now. As soon as you see him, you should be like, oh yeah, meet me at the rim.

Starting point is 02:14:24 That's when I knew it was a win when he took him to the hole. Finally, I'm like. I mean, I'll say this. I think the window's closed. I think they did exactly what they were supposed to do. The time just gave them. Oh, the window is. For Boston?

Starting point is 02:14:37 Is over. Oh, yeah, yeah. You said it's over? Yeah. They got in. They got out. They got what they were supposed to do. That's why it was so imperative for Jason Tatum

Starting point is 02:14:46 to get what he was going to get this particular series. He was supposed to solidify his legacy now because the window for you to try to get this shit again with the team just loading up, like we said earlier in the show, do we discredit them making it all the way this way because of the injuries? And we said, no, you don't discredit them. You give them credit because this is how it lined up, right?

Starting point is 02:15:08 Yeah, but still best team in the NBA regardless of... Of course, of course. So now when everybody lines back up and they all healthy, can they do this shit again? That's the question. They did that during the regular season. For me, looking at how they played and how inconsistent

Starting point is 02:15:24 throughout the whole time, it ain't going to happen. Pressure ain't there no more. I feel like that. I mean, I think they're going. That's the other thing. I don't think there's a team in the East that's going to be built. Yeah, that's what I'm saying. There's no pressure on them now.

Starting point is 02:15:38 PG go to Philly, that changes it. That's why I said it. Some KD shit happened. Did I say that? Look, the reason I'm not making my taste is keeping all the teams the same on the East, bro. They're going to have to make changes. But we have to make these shit happen.

Starting point is 02:15:50 I'm saying the window that was opened this year is the only open that Boston Celtics are going to have in at least the next five years. But if they come, I feel like they still got to... They still need some more pieces because they're getting older, too. They need somebody for Warford. That's hard to fill in, somebody that can shoot a three and take somebody off the dribble.

Starting point is 02:16:11 Like even Dustin said, if they win a championship and then add another good piece, it keeps their window open. But usually, just like champions, they keep the fucking same team. That's what I was just about to say. Every championship team that was paper champs never improved their roster, so they came back and they fell short the next team. That's what I was just about to say. Every championship team that was paper champs never improved their roster, so they came back and they fell short the next year. But it seems like Brad Stevens, intelligent dude, they're going to have guys that will be willing to come on to this. I'm not mad

Starting point is 02:16:34 at what Brad Stevens has done the last three years. He's already made tough decisions, so it ain't like he might not be like, all right. Okay, so the window of winning the championship, I can say within the next 25 and 26 and 27 right now, as long as they stay together in the next four years, they can possibly get another win.

Starting point is 02:16:57 It wouldn't be close if KP was healthy. We didn't even see the best team. That's what I'm saying. He was out there dragging that foot. Not throughout the year. That's why they swept throughout the year. That's what I'm saying. Before he got hurt, they were still playing like, man, we don't know which team is going to show up.

Starting point is 02:17:15 No, because he got hurt in the first round. I'm saying before that, bro, leading up. If they had the same team they won 64 games with. Inconsistent, bro. Prazingis was inconsistent. He was inconsistent. The only two guys that was consistent was Jalen and Tatum. I mean, yeah, Jalen and Tatum, they was very consistent.

Starting point is 02:17:35 But the thing, now when you think about it, when you compare to every other team. They got four people that could do something. No, five. Their third, fourth, and fifth option. It's better than everybody. They're literally better than everybody else's three. Yeah. Who can be, like, I'm trying to figure out who's.

Starting point is 02:17:55 Amel. Who are you taking? As a fourth option, I'm taking Drew Holiday or anybody. Or Prezinko. Because you got to see the reason why the third. He probably the fifth option. The reason why the third, fourth, and fifth option on their team is good is because of the system that they run that allows them to hit them shots.

Starting point is 02:18:14 Them are not shot-making, shot-creator type guys. These are guys who are going to hit shots when they need to hit shots. You think about the Clippers. Norm Powell can hit shots. Certain guys can hit shots when they need to hit shots. But other teams don't have the system set up for two guys to just go out here and do their thing and get you open shots.

Starting point is 02:18:32 That's every team. Not with two stars. No, because Porzingis averaged 20 and 10 last year. Porzingis is... 19 and 14. In D.C.? Yeah. No, in was like 18 and 1. In D.C.? Yeah.

Starting point is 02:18:46 No, in D.C.? Last year was D.C.? Or this year? Yeah, last season. Before the trade. So before the trade, last season, he averaged 23. Yeah. 23 and 8.

Starting point is 02:18:58 Yeah, 23 and 8. How much did he average this year, though? 23. So he averaged 23 and 8. So there's nobody as a third. A third option? He's a third option. Averaging 20?

Starting point is 02:19:11 This year he averaged 20. Last year he averaged 23 and 8. This year he averaged 20 and 7. And Drew was at, like, 13, 12 or 13 a game. White was at 12 or 13 a game. White was at probably 16. 14. I think maybe 14.

Starting point is 02:19:23 Oh, man, that's crazy. But like I said, to me, it's opportunity. Because any other scenario, you're not looking. Like, White had to come up the ladder. Like, we had to get confidence that we'd even allow you to take them type of shots. Drew comes over. No, no, no. He was like Caleb Martin.

Starting point is 02:19:39 He was like Caleb Martin, though. He was an iffy, wishy-washy guy. But then you let Drew come over, who we know can get buckets, but we don't need those buckets from you. He'd give us 13, 14. Then you got Prazingis, who we know we got a big man we can give and you can shoot. We ain't got to depend on dumping it down to you.

Starting point is 02:19:56 Those are three good acquisitions though. But this is just this year. We just seen the Timberwolves team. What time was Timberwolves? Do they got that? Hell no. That's what I'm saying. That's why that was so easy. Cat is just like Przingis.

Starting point is 02:20:09 But he's the second option over there. He's the second option over there. Yeah, they just don't have the third option. OKC. They young. Jalen Williams is the third option. No. Chet is probably the second.

Starting point is 02:20:24 Yeah, they young. Are you talking about the guys like... What about New York? What they got? Randall would be one, two. One, two. We not worried about... They don't got a third.

Starting point is 02:20:35 Third option. OG. OG is their third. But he ain't averaging 20 and... But he never... He didn't stay long enough... Well, he didn't play long enough to even see what we can see him averaging like that.

Starting point is 02:20:44 It's going to be... The Suns, though. KD. Man, you see how them Suns got their ass over with. They score, but their score is not impacting. Denver? Now that makes more sense. They score, now it's... No, what I'm saying is...

Starting point is 02:20:57 They get a lot of buckets, but it don't impact the game to me. This is a horrible narrative, then. Prazinga's in the woods. Jason Tatum averaged last year This is a horrible narrative then. Porzingis hit a wood. Jason Tatum averaged last year 27, 5, and 8, right? Brown averaged 23. Oh, 23. Porzingis averaged 20. That's crazy.

Starting point is 02:21:22 So when we talk about somebody being- That was this year's stats or last year's? This year's crazy. So when we talk about somebody being... That was this year's stats or last year's? This year's stats. So three people averaged 20 points a game. That's hard to do. And we're talking about who's... You know they're trying to get the points. But this is...

Starting point is 02:21:36 Throughout the season... I know what you're saying, but throughout the season, the reason those numbers look the way they did is because they never got them at once. It was all fluctuated numbers. Jason would have a big game, and them two would have a bad game. Brown would have a good game. Przingis would play all right.

Starting point is 02:21:52 He didn't play too good. But it's 27. Shit, it's 27. Shit, 27 is 27. You're talking about... But it ain't out there like you're trying to see who's going to lead. No, no, no. You're discrediting a group of players.

Starting point is 02:22:10 Now, you have to respect these guys at another level now. One is averaging 27. One is averaging 26. Then they bring a guy over. 27? Oh, yeah. 27. No, this year.

Starting point is 02:22:21 23. 26.9 is what Jason Tatum averaged. Tatum, 27. Brown, 23. 23. this year. Brown 23. Brown 23. 26.9 is what Jason Tatum averaged. Tatum 27, Brown 23. 23 this year. And then the reason that these stats don't look the way everybody else's look because they have a third guy who's averaging a dub. Not 14, not 15, not 8 and 8. He's averaging a dub.

Starting point is 02:22:45 This is 20 points taken away. And then the fourth option is averaging 15. You're saying this man didn't win. He's not second all team because of his numbers, not realizing who he's sharing the ball with. That's hard to beat, man. I'm telling you. That's hard to beat.

Starting point is 02:23:06 So last question before we get to Moseley fans. Last question before we get to Moseley fans. Nick, you won a chip with the Warriors in 2018. That's crazy. Champion in life, champion on the court. How turnt up did you get after the game and what do you remember from that night? Damn, that night, oh man. I didn't even get a chance to take my championship picture after the game cause I was so champagne everywhere I felt like it was getting

Starting point is 02:23:32 in your pores and shit I passed out so I didn't even get a chance to make it to like the picture you know everybody take their family picture at the arena at the arena

Starting point is 02:23:42 you passed out at the arena bro I was dead. Moms and pops had to take me home, man. I was gone. I was so happy, bro. Damn. Because I ain't never won.

Starting point is 02:23:54 That was my first time winning anything, man. So you passed out. Yeah. Damn. At the arena. You didn't know how to handle that. I didn't know how to handle that, bro. Do I drink the whole bottle?

Starting point is 02:24:05 Right? No, no. But it was everywhere, though, bro. I'm telling you. That shit was everywhere. My man. My man. I'm telling you, it was everywhere.

Starting point is 02:24:15 There was so many bottles and champagne. Everywhere you go, it was just everywhere. What was your last memory before passing out? I remember saying, I went from getting snitched on to putting a ring on. Yeah, yeah. That was your last vivid memory. It blacked out. It blacked out. Drop the mic. Drop the mic. Where did you wake up at home? Where did you wake up at? At the hotel, at the hotel. Okay. You woke up at the hotel. You stayed another night. Y'all was on the road, right?

Starting point is 02:24:48 Yeah, we stayed. We stayed over. It was a great night, man. I heard. I heard it was a great night, boy. But the best thing is the parade, bro. Champagne and pit a ceiling, boy. That's all, my man. That's all we know, baby. You feel me? Y'all didn't upgrade? No, it wasn't. Champagne and pitacillin, boy, that's all, my man. That's all we know, baby. Right? Y'all need an upgrade?

Starting point is 02:25:08 Y'all need pitacillin still? Nah, it wasn't. Moxacillin. You're going to get Moxacillin. Z-Pak. Z-Pak. They got Z-Pak. Z-Pak. Man, they had a little good Z-Pak.

Starting point is 02:26:20 Early predictions for next season's finals. Give me your early finals prediction. We will take this clip, and if you are right, we will use that to help uplift you. If you are wrong, we will delete it. I'm going Lakers. I'm going Lakers. We're picking now. It's not even after the trees and stuff.

Starting point is 02:26:38 It's hard to pick. That's true. That's true. It's hard to pick now. That's true. I get to go fresh, too. I get to pick somebody fresh, huh? Are you into yourself as a leader?

Starting point is 02:26:48 I don't know yet. Okay. We'll find out in October. See what these niggas do. Day one in October, whatever jersey you roll in with, we still have a free agency, the draft. You never know. Draft could surprise us. All right, let's see.

Starting point is 02:27:01 We don't know who's getting brought in. Unless there's something drastic. The Bucs are going to do something sick. You know what I'm saying? If something is just drastic, the Lakers got to do something drastic. I'm going to go Lakers Celtics. I'm going to go Lakers Celtics. Yeah, I like that.

Starting point is 02:27:15 I'm going Lakers Celtics. Are we doing matchups? Or are we just going both sides? Early predictions for next season's finals. Give me the two teams. I don't even know who's going to win. I'm going Boston Lakers. Okay, we're back. I can't even argue who's going to win. I'm going Boston Lakers. Okay, we're back. I can't even argue with that. I feel like that's a very rational, reasonable measure.

Starting point is 02:27:30 That's a little script, man. You know what I mean? The Lakers win another one that's tied again. Everybody pissed off again. J.J. Redick, first championship in his first season.

Starting point is 02:27:36 Is it tied right now? Oh, it's 76. Well, total championships, Lakers have 18, including the in-season tournament championship, which is recognized as a championship

Starting point is 02:27:44 by the basketball community. They don't add everything else? They didn't add that? There's a banner. Conference finals? 18 banners to 18 banners. Do you add the conference season too? We just add championships.

Starting point is 02:27:57 That's determined by Adam Silver's NBA in-season tournament. Like I was asking him. So they didn't add the bubble championship? No, they didn't. Oh, I was about to say. So Lakers have 18 total banners in season tournament championship included.

Starting point is 02:28:10 Just talking banners. No, but no, what he's saying is correct because even Eastern Conference was at conference finals MVPs. That wasn't a thing until a few years ago. 2022.

Starting point is 02:28:19 Oh, yeah. Right, so that's a new thing. Isn't it if you don't like actually have a parade for it, it doesn't count? We had a parade. No, we didn't. I didn't go. The Ros't it if you don't, like, actually have a parade for it, it doesn't count? We had a parade. No, we didn't. I didn't go.

Starting point is 02:28:28 The Roscos. Off the break, I meant to send you to take. You're making, hey, look, you're making shit up now. I meant to send you to take. Look, if it's not a fucking parade, if it's not a parade. That wasn't our fault. That was city coordinates. If it's not a parade, it's not a real fucking city. That was city coordinates.

Starting point is 02:28:42 The city did that. The Lakers, nor Dodgers, had a parade for the bubble. That wasn't our fault. We were busy. That wasn't our fault. Sustaining. We were busy. PPP line.

Starting point is 02:28:50 I would ask a question, but I'm pretty sure no one knows. Did the WNBA win the championship? Who won? Yeah. The bubble. There was a bubble. There was a bubble.

Starting point is 02:29:00 There was a bubble. Yeah. Remember, they had Black Lives Matter and stuff on it. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. Thanks, man.

Starting point is 02:29:07 I didn't start watching that until this year. Seattle Storm. That was Breonna Stewart. Yeah, I remember. They had the janky place, the janky waiting room. So who you going with? Oh, yeah, they did. Who you going with?

Starting point is 02:29:20 For the WNBA? No, no, no. For the last two. I'm going with Lakers-Boston. Lakers-Boston, Lakers-Boston. Rashad. Mr. Cemetery Larry, can I get the sound effect, please? We need it.

Starting point is 02:29:32 They're going to say, wizards. I'm looking at who needs what. Who needs the changes and who's going to make them. You know what? I'm going to go. Can I change mine? Yeah. I'm going to, can I change minds? Yeah.

Starting point is 02:29:47 I'm gonna go T. Woods in Boston. T. Woods in Boston. Ed Edwards. I would love to see that. Ed, man, this is Taylor. Julius Randall Gobert, interesting. That big three. I wanna go Philly.

Starting point is 02:30:03 Mm. And I want to go... I don't think Paul going, though, but he's going to stay here in L.A. Just let y'all know that now. Palm don't know. You never know. I want to say Phoenix. Ooh. I want to say Phoenix, but I just don't know who they can get that's going to help it.

Starting point is 02:30:29 But I think Phoenix is right there. Hey, someone asked me a question about Bobo. They asked me a question about Bobo, and they said, if I was a general manager, would you sign Bobo? And I said this. I said, me knowing his talent, like what he possesses,

Starting point is 02:30:54 if I have the infrastructure to get him to really believe in him, right, I said I wouldn't be afraid to pay him $10 million a year. With the stats. With the stats he had. And I said, giving him the minutes where he can prove it?

Starting point is 02:31:13 Yes. And I said, this is why. I said, this is why. If I'm personally saying I'm going to be playing him 35 a game, I'm playing him 35 a game, right? Playing him 35 minutes a game. So he's going to play 35 minutes. It don't matter. If I'm playing him 35 minutes a game, I'm playing him 35 a game. Playing him 35 minutes a game. It don't matter. If I'm

Starting point is 02:31:27 playing him 35 minutes a game, then that 35 minutes, I'm not going to be able to afford what he can possibly do out there. I got to think about what he does and say, all right. He'll surprise you out there. I know he's going to average about

Starting point is 02:31:43 20 because that's what he does when he's out. At least 15. Shit, do you see what he's... For sure. Do you see his minutes? Like when he plays minutes? He has the highest points per minute, I believe. When you see when he plays minutes.

Starting point is 02:31:55 So I'm like, he's going to have at least two blocks. He's going to have these stats that's going to... So I said, I will pay him $10 million if it's up to me. He should just go to the Wizards and see. So, no, there's a group that's like, he might be a steal for us. He's a steal. Well, he should, yeah. And you know what else is a steal?

Starting point is 02:32:31 Chet, and Bobo in the workout. Y'all seen all the moves each one of them did? Who had the least move that looked like they couldn't do the move? Bobo. He don't like that shit. He don't like nothing to do with down low. He don't like nothing to do with down low. He don't like nothing to do on the block.

Starting point is 02:32:48 I don't want none of that. He don't run to the block and fast break. I played with him a couple times. He don't want to play big at all, period.
