All you got to do is catch the ball and run north or south. Listen, our sport's better. Our sport's better because we would just create a position for one of you 5'2", 40, running, 6'10", guys, and just put them, you know,
Starting point is 00:21:38 can't get hit much, fragile, all right, a little thin, very tall. We would just create a position because we got big brains in our sport. Listen, listen. That's what we would do. There's a reason why hip-hop artists, when they rap, they compare themselves to ballers. They're not talking about footballers. They're talking about basketball players.
Starting point is 00:21:54 That's because they're not tough. You know, and I'm a putter. This is me being a putter saying all these things. There's a reason why all the girls that we get done with them, the NFL players usually end up dating and loving them. It's not us first, bro. We set the culture. So Austin Rivers did say some factual information there.
Starting point is 00:22:14 There's been longstanding beef between football players, basketball players. We don't wear helmets. What's so funny is Pat McAfee proved his point. Y'all beef with football players? Nah. Back in college. I never did. Yeah, you know,
Starting point is 00:22:25 that's just your life. But he proved his point when he said we can take basketball players and create a position for them. So you can just take us because we're so athletic and gifted
Starting point is 00:22:38 that you can make a position for us even if we're prissy you can put us as whatever and we can kind of succeed. You kind of proved this point. We can't take you guys, in a sense, and put
Starting point is 00:22:50 you in the sport and you can be dominant at it. You got to dribble, jump, run. You have to be able to have been playing this sport as a child to pick it up. You just can't say, all right, NFL players, let's go play. Now, you can bring
Starting point is 00:23:05 30 of us over there. 30 of us are going to get quit. We're going to quit once we get hit. I can tell you that for sure. Yeah, I can play receiver. Right? You hit me, I'm out.
Starting point is 00:23:16 Well, this new NFL is not... This NFL, yeah, you can play in. Not the old... Not the one before they start changing the rules. So like I said, they have a bunch of football players in their feelings. I was at the gym yesterday.
Starting point is 00:23:31 I saw a former all-pro offensive lineman, Dwayne Brown. He asked me to discuss this topic on the show. He's not feeling what Austin Rivers was saying. Some of them big dudes athletic, but they couldn't transition, right? Them dudes, some of them receive, like the most athletic dudes on the field or why receivers right and I'm dudes 511 Like what can they pop it on say like any gonna do like the biggest receive most after the after that receive all is Calvin Johnson, yeah, right him and Randy Moss But all that all that athleticism number you still stiff as hell still can't dribble still case
Starting point is 00:24:03 And you can't shoot Randy who before Randy can who but he's a football player. He can't dribble. Still can't shoot. You can't shoot. Randy hooped before. Randy can hoop. But he's still a football player. He can't play. He hooped like a football player. He can't play, though. So former NFL three-time defensive player of the year, J.J. Watt, wasn't rolling.
Starting point is 00:24:14 And roasted Rivers for the disrespect. He tweeted the following. No. He said, you don't got a job in either right now. Go ahead and try it. Neither do you. The only person who should be chiming in is somebody... He retired.
Starting point is 00:24:29 And Austin Rivers is what? Retired too. Somebody like T.O., someone who played both sports. Someone like Patrick Mahomes. But they still look like football players. I know. But what I'm saying is people who's been playing it. So those are technically the best basketball players out of football players. They played in high school. saying is people who's been playing it. So those are technically the best basketball
Starting point is 00:24:46 players out of football. They played in high school. They played in high school growing up. Gonzalez, Gates. So we can see them. Julius Peppers, right? Julius Peppers was a beast. The two-way player. Like a football player. Ronald Curry. So we've seen the best
Starting point is 00:25:01 what's-his-name's, right? The best football players. But you in football, you have the names, right, the best football players. But in football, you have to have, I mean, in basketball, being a football player, you have to be able to dribble, jump, shoot, dodge, all that, all in one time. You guys, growing up, you didn't do that. One skill set. You just had one skill set. Run, catch it, and then try to take off. We can do that.
Starting point is 00:25:25 I'll tell you one thing. The physical part is the difference with us. You hit me, I'm gone. I'm serious. I play defense. But you got a hit on defense. I ain't got a hit. I know I can do it.
Starting point is 00:25:36 Yeah, I know I can do it. I was already doing this shit. I know I give 30 NBA players a chance to get one position in the NFL. You know what they're going to be able to do? Punt that bitch. You're going to be able to kick a fucking football. Hey, Pat, you know that's one thing all of us
Starting point is 00:25:54 going to be able to do because you know what's not going to happen to us? We're not going to get hit. We're not going to get hit. You get to kick the ball. You get to kick the ball. You don't get hit. You get the fuck out the way. His position. Let's just be honest. We get to be punters. You don't get hit. You get the fuck out of the way. His position. Let's just be honest. His position.
Starting point is 00:26:05 Not just be honest. We get to be punters. We can be quarterbacks, right? Because we're used to throwing the ball, handling the ball, tying the order. We can be tight ends. We can be receivers. We're going to be big receivers. We're going to be defensive ends. Zion can go out there right now.
Starting point is 00:26:25 Defensive ends for sure. Listen, I'm trying to tell a big DJ Burns of NC State, you're going to make a whole lot of – if he decides, I hope he's listening. I hope somebody tells him, son, you need to go play left tackle somewhere. Because all it is is three defensive slides, dog. And that – but see –
Starting point is 00:26:44 Right? It's more than that. Long arms. but see, but that, but... Right? It's more than that. Long arms. It's more than that. Long arms, keeping the guy at bay. Tramp, tramp, tramp. But that's the thing.
Starting point is 00:26:51 Tramp tripping out right now. But that's the thing. You can, just like you said, we can take you and create a position. Yeah. So you can say, he's been playing basketball his whole life. Play left tackle. And then you can say, all right, bring in left tackle and play football. You can play left tackle,
Starting point is 00:27:05 right tackle. If that's your thought process to even consider that, you validate his point. Because there's no football player that we've seen and said, all right, you can probably play basketball
Starting point is 00:27:16 and you've never touched a sport before. Yeah. Right? Most of the football players that play basketball was a dual sport athlete anyway. So you can just transit, they can, and they just stuck with football more.
Starting point is 00:27:29 They played both going up. What's the dude from... He just got drafted. I don't know if it's the... Is it the Buffalo? The Buffalo's pick. Okay, what about it? His basketball highlights, jumping on everybody.
Starting point is 00:27:45 Yeah, that makes sense. That makes sense. That motherfucker makes sense. But we don't got no position in basketball where you just dunk. Nigga, you got to be able to play and move and guard. Like, yeah, the football person in the game... The Keion Coleman girl you talking about? It wasn't him? That dude funny.
Starting point is 00:28:03 You see Miles Garrett on the basketball floor now. He can move. He can move, but he still move like he play. The football player. Don't tackle you in a given moment. We was in college, and we had football players come try out, and they made our team. But they did not fucking play. They did not fucking, because they, you know why?
Starting point is 00:28:20 Because they was fucking football players. You're a football player, you guard. They play great defense. They hack the fuck out you. They stay in front of you. Shout out to Brad Jackson. They make sure you work hard for your shit. But other than that, they have to put in years of what we put into the craft to actually be good.
Starting point is 00:28:39 It's like us trying to play baseball. We don't just go out there and be like, I'm going to throw a fastball and it's going to be fast. No, they hone in, getting it into the strike zone and the curve and all that. I guess it's easier to explain it like this. If we took 30 of your best athletes in football and take 30 of the best athletes in basketball and just switched them, right, who would be more successful on the switch? It would be basketball players. Yeah. One, you can find a position for us to be successful in that switch when you guys are here yeah it won't work for you
Starting point is 00:29:13 but majority of our 30 would be in specific positions we wouldn't be able to scatter us all out on all positions it would be receiver quarterback yeah, we'd be motherfucking Tom Brady. No. Like, the only position... We won't be Tom Brady. We can be Tebow. The only position that basketball players wouldn't be able to play is in the trenches.
Starting point is 00:29:36 On that line. Offensive line, defensive line. They're 300-something pounds. That's it. Jihadi White Jihadi White Steven Adams maybe Nah he could just ask
Starting point is 00:29:49 No He's strong as fuck He play rugby Hell yeah Let's do a quick game Of facts or cap 30 NBA players Can play in the NFL
Starting point is 00:29:57 Right now Facts or cap Let's go around Rashad What you gotta say 30 NBA players Can play in today's NBA Or Adam Silver's current
Starting point is 00:30:04 Adam Silver's current National Basketball Association could play in the NFL. But that's what I'm saying. It's current 30, but we're saying just play. Make a team and play and play a couple downs. So you say fact? Yes, sir. There's too many. What I'm saying is there's so many.
Starting point is 00:30:18 30 NBA players would be successful in the NFL with the right position. Right position. How many positions are there? There's only certain positions. There's are there? There's only certain positions. There's 11 positions. There's only certain positions. Offense and defense. 11 on 11.
Starting point is 00:30:29 11 on 11. 22. So 22 different positions. Kick the punters. Then that's another. But there's only certain positions that basketball players will play, right? You say a quarterback. Receiver.
Starting point is 00:30:41 DB. Defensive end. Running back. Certain guys can play running back because of their stature. They can play running back. But defensive backs, receivers, quarterback, some guys can play defensive end, some guys do stature running back. But those are the fancy positions in football.
Starting point is 00:31:01 Right? Those are most of the positions that people like, they make plays. So that's what it is. It's athleticism, running around, making plays.
Starting point is 00:31:10 That's what we do. We're athletic and we run around and make plays. I don't think most of them, they need to understand, you know most of the
Starting point is 00:31:18 guys are 6'6", 6'5", with the same type of speed, right? So it's, you know, you can Hail Mary the fuck up out of us and that DB that's at five, six, get out of here. He ain't got a chance. That five, six DB, I mean,
Starting point is 00:31:31 his protocol can be whatever it is and he ain't got a chance. You're talking about, like, you're talking about this not putting us on the same scale as the Terrell Owens and those tall guys. We're those tall guys and even taller. And he's 6'3". Right, and he's 6'3". I've been dunked on by that motherfucker,
Starting point is 00:31:48 so I know what he can do. You shared too much info on the show. I've been dunked on by them big receivers, but that's who we are. We're those type of receivers. We're the big ones. We're not the five... You can sit there and... Just throw the shit up here.
Starting point is 00:32:04 Sit there and throw the shit up. Get your little ass down there. Yeah, you might sit down with a Calvin Johnson. Just throw the shit up here. Calvin Johnson 6'5". Just sit there and throw the shit up. Get your little ass down there. Yeah, you might hit me running through the middle or something. I'll probably run the fuck out of bounds, but for the most part, I'm going to catch the ball. The question for them is who y'all going to put on our side to play our positions. That's right. Who you going to put out of your 30 that's going to play point guard, that's going to play shooting guard and can shoot, that's going to play the three man That's going to play shooting guard and can shoot. That's going to play the three man that can
Starting point is 00:32:25 slash, dunk, and rebound. That's the four man that can face up, that can rebound, that can pick and roll. And a five man that ain't fat as hell that can't run up and down the floor. They don't get winded. They actually can run up and be like Joker. You got to...
Starting point is 00:32:40 Four second spurts. The niggas will die on the basketball court. When you're talking about them, you're only... What a dude's playing at full-second spurts. The niggas are dying on the basketball court. But that's what I'm saying. When you're talking about them, you're only talking about a few. Yeah. We're talking about the Garrets, right? You're talking about a Cam Newton, right, who's big, he's athletic, right?
Starting point is 00:32:55 You can say, all right, just come out here and be Dorton. Play some defense. Lock a motherfucker up or something. You ain't got a score. Right? Yeah, you can do that. Ocho Cinco. Ocho Cinco.
Starting point is 00:33:05 Ocho Cinco is a fast. He probably on some cross you over. Yeah, he probably that. We going to sit there. Hey, hey, leak out. Leak out, motherfucker. Don't be too fast for the layup. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:33:15 But they think like you ain't going. Kerry Kittle style. They just, hey. Smoking that shit every time. You're too fast. And that's how they used to do it. You're too fast. Too fast for they own good.
Starting point is 00:33:23 It's like, nigga, you need to slow down. Slow down. Slow the fuck down. You can like, nigga, you need to slow down. Slow the fuck down. You can put Wimby out there to block extra points of field goals, but that's just my grandmaster playing. He a kicker. He going to be a kicker in a minute. Put your hands up and jump, dog. I think they think we're just going to be like some tight ends
Starting point is 00:33:36 trying to run across the middle. Yeah. You're going to have a whole bunch of niggas catching and falling. Wait, hold on, Coach. You said what? Basketball players fast than people think. If you time the average basketball player in the 40, Wait, hold on, Coach. You said what? Basketball players fast as people think. If you time the average basketball player in the 40, certain positions like guards.
Starting point is 00:33:51 4-2, 4-3? No, no, no. 4-4, 4-4, 4-5. You crazy? 4-2. Point guard's in the 4-3. No, no, let's be realistic here. 4-2 is very, very, very fast, bro.
Starting point is 00:33:59 4-2 is very, very, very fast. They don't run 4-2. I ran a 10-3 in high school. Talking about a 40-yard day. I don't know what that is. We didn't run 40 in high school. They don't run 4-2. I ran a 10-3 in high school. Talking about a 40-yard day. I don't know what that is.
Starting point is 00:34:08 We didn't run 40. Why are you even saying what it is? I don't know what it is. If I ran a 10-3, translate that to 2-40. No, it ain't no translation until you do it, bro. There ain't no translation. 40-yard day, some guards, anybody, fast guards, they 4-4, 4-5. Yes.
Starting point is 00:34:24 4-5. I. 4'5". I ran a 4'6". I ran a 4'6'' as a sophomore in high school at 6'6". You see, I don't know. So when it comes to 30 NBA players. What is a 10'3'' in the 40? I don't know, Gilbert. What is a 10'3"?
Starting point is 00:34:37 4'6". There ain't. 4'5". Yeah, 4'7". So these motherfuckers running nine, nine hundreds? They slow down after that initial 40 game. Oh, yeah. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:34:49 That's what I said. I don't know. So when it comes to 30 NBA players being able to play in the NFL right now. Hell, hold on. We was running something at 50. Five. He was running five. He was running a five.
Starting point is 00:34:57 I think it was a five flat or something. He was running a five flat at 50. Five is some change. You can run a five and change on a bad wheel. So, you talking about
Starting point is 00:35:08 four-tenths of a second to get back down? It's a lot. It ain't what you think, man. Can I run a four-nine? Four-nine-seven, allegedly. Yeah, the fastest time
Starting point is 00:35:18 on the record is like low, like four-two-one, four-one-nine. Recently, though. Recently. I got to see some... Four-nine-one, four-one-2. 4-2-1, 4-1-9. Recently, though. Recently. I got to see some. 4-1-9.
Starting point is 00:35:29 No, it was 4-2-5. 4-2-1. It was 4-2-5. 4-2-5. So we asked to check if Hooper's playing in the NFL. We got nearly 3,000 voters. 59% said yes. But let's move on to some actual basketball subject.
Starting point is 00:35:40 I think you guys are going to be very interested in talking about it. You better check my police record. I was a 100 runner and a 400 runner. I was a track runner first. So, Rudy Gobert missed game two of the Wolves Nuggets series on Monday, but made some history Tuesday, winning his record-tying fourth defensive
Starting point is 00:35:56 player of the year award. Gobert received 72 first place votes. Winby came in second. Bam Adebayo finished third, and AD got fourth. So Gobert joins the Cam Bay Matumbo and Ben Wallace as the only four-time winners since the awards inception in 1983. So Gobert anchored the Wolves' top-ranked defense
Starting point is 00:36:14 and had the best individual defensive rating this season. So what are your thoughts on Gobert winning his fourth Defensive Player of the Year award this year? Hey, I'm just happy he didn't miss that. He didn't miss that. He didn't miss that. He was in the house chilling on that award doing interviews and everything from the crib. I thought he was going to do it from the hospital. Still getting this going.
Starting point is 00:36:39 I was just wondering. Now we can't go to prison. Because, I mean, that didn't look like the hospital. That looked like home. It was the nursery room. He was in his. He was in his. Nursery room.
Starting point is 00:36:49 He was in there cheesing. Thank you. I appreciate it. I appreciate it. I mean, I'll just say it. It's crazy. Sacre bleu. I'm crazy.
Starting point is 00:36:58 He wasn't even at the hospital. Sean, what do you think about Gobert? Well-deserved. See? Well-deserved. That? Well-deserved. That's a nice thing to say. I'm proud of my Frenchman. Oui, oui.
Starting point is 00:37:08 Oui, oui. Oui, oui. Either way, a Frenchman was going to win. That's what I say. Oui, oui. It don't matter. We win. Oui, oui, we win.
Starting point is 00:37:14 You're French now? Yeah. Okay. Yeah, I told you. I'm French kitchen on French business. That's what we doing. French party coming. That's how you get a kid.
Starting point is 00:37:23 You got to do the right thing. That's what I like about Rudy. He go out there, he play defense, and then he went home and played offense. Ken, what you think about Gobert when the defense player- I don't think he should have got it. Okay. Who should have got the award? Because these guys on the perimeter are hell of a defenders, man. So the defensive right and all that shit, they play a part of that. You look at the minutes that Wimby spent on the floor
Starting point is 00:37:50 when he wasn't on the floor. It's just more blocks and steals. You can't have average a block and a half more than the dude, man. I understand what, I get it from the hooping aspect of it,
Starting point is 00:38:09 but if you look at the numbers and, Uh-oh. You look at the numbers. You turn into Statman, Statman,
Starting point is 00:38:15 Statman, Statman. It's time for our new segment, Statman. You're looking at the numbers. Our man Justin Phan
Starting point is 00:38:20 over at Underdog NBA did a head-to-head breakdown of Gobert versus Wimby this season. And the numbers do tell an interesting story, as Kenya suggests. So let's look at Rudy. The Wolves' defensive rating when Rudy was on the floor, 106.6.
Starting point is 00:38:34 When he was off, 107.3, so a minus.7 difference. He had a plus 2.2 defensive estimated plus minus. Average 2.1 blocks,.7 steals per game, got 72 first place votes. So with Wimby, Spurs defensive rating when Wimby was on was 111.2. When he was off the floor it was 117.3, minus 6.1 difference.
Starting point is 00:38:56 Wimby had a higher estimated plus minus, more blocks, more steals, and only got 19 first place votes. My question is this. We've seen Rudy not play game two. We've seen what their defense looked like. Right?
Starting point is 00:39:19 Yeah. Better than we've seen it. Right? It's a great defense. Oh, my God. What I'm saying is, did they miss a step defensively but you have to take into consideration the team doesn't lose a step defense okay so that was always my argument how can you how can you say he's this impactful defensively if you remove him they are still great right because there's other players that do their job
Starting point is 00:39:46 too so um if you want to say um he instilled this type of defense into him to make them want to play more defense okay but as the better defensive player individually the numbers don't lie the impact doesn't lie right it's you have multiple defensive players on a team doing their job too so it's it's kind of hard to really i disagree gauge it i don't know i disagree because you you can't minimize what rudy does based on the fact that his teammates do their job very well Yes, you can his teammates do their job to the point where when he's not on the floor They don't miss a beat because we do our job So well to the point where our numbers don't fluctuate when you're not on the floor if he's not on that team
Starting point is 00:40:41 His production and his defensive numbers will go up. That's the difference. That's why they... He ain't never averaged them numbers. He don't have to. On other teams. He don't have to. He ain't never averaged them numbers. He's a three-time defensive player.
Starting point is 00:40:54 He ain't averaged... The other three... This is four now. This is four. The other three, he ain't averaged them numbers. And Wallace probably never averaged them numbers. He got four times. Four times.
Starting point is 00:41:03 Mutombo probably never averaged those numbers. He got four times. Four times. But Tumbo probably never averaged those numbers. He got four times. Is it about the numbers or is it about what you do for your team? When you got somebody that's comparing that people are saying that you shouldn't have won the war too. You'll get it next year. So go look at somebody. Go look at the other defensive players when Ben Wallace won. Look at their numbers.
Starting point is 00:41:19 Look at the other. And then you can compare, right? We comparing in real time. And they just put the shit up on the screen Like I said the mean live to the men live women live team is that good? Okay, so Let's take let's take the team like the Bulls right 96 Bulls and then Would you would have had a problem if someone like? Lou would have had a problem if someone like Lou.
Starting point is 00:41:47 What the fuck is his name? Big dude. Luke Longley. Luke Longley got defensive player of the year. Would you have said, how the fuck do you supposed to win? You got Michael Jordan, you got Dennis Rodman, you got Scottie Pippen, and you have Ron Harper. All are lockdown offenders.
Starting point is 00:42:05 How are you getting rewarded for something they do great to? Are you comparing Luke Longley to Rudy Gobert, bro? I'm comparing a team full of monsters on the defensive end and a dude getting credited like he has the injury. You're using the worst defender to do your to prove your scenario Luke longley is not known as a defensive player who's won defensive player of the year three times So you have to put a defensive player like robman in that position robin's already defense. Okay, so let's put robin in there Let's put ben wallace. Whoever you put there has to be known as a defensive player around other good defensive players
Starting point is 00:42:41 So then you would say does he deserve it? You'd be like hey He's known for this so yeah he's on a defensive team though the other guys play good defense as well so let's so let's take ben wallace so you said let's take ben wallace right you take ben wallace off of the detroit pistons team they get cooked night in. Oh my lord, that's a lie. I played against them, nigga. I did too. I did too. In 2006, 2008, 2005.
Starting point is 00:43:15 What do you mean? I played against them too. I was actually with them in 2004. I witnessed their whole team. I used to watch the team practices. They were an excellent defensive team. Tell me about somebody who I went head up against day in, day out. In the playoffs,
Starting point is 00:43:29 swept them in the playoffs, lost to them. So you're going to sit up and you know better than I do. You just said you played against them. You know better than I do. I just said I played against them too. You know better than I do.
Starting point is 00:43:37 No. You know better than I do. No, I don't. I played against them at my peak. I played against them. When I'm an all-star. When I'm an all-star. But that's not what we're-star. Yes, we are.
Starting point is 00:43:45 We're bringing Ben Wallace into the conversation, right? You're bringing Ben Wallace. No, we're bringing Ben Wallace into the conversation. We're bringing Ben Wallace into the conversation. We're bringing... Listen for a second. We're bringing Ben Wallace into the conversation. If you take
Starting point is 00:44:02 him off of the 0-2, 0-3, 0-4 Pistons team, the 0-4 Pistons team without Ben Wallace, they don't have a championship. So you're saying they're trash? The rest of the guys defensively relied on him. Chauncey wasn't a great defender. He tried. Rip wasn't a great defender.
Starting point is 00:44:21 He tried. Tayshaun Prince was okay. Wow. I played against them. So you're saying they would be trash without Ben Wallace? They wouldn't have won championships. They wouldn't have been competitive the way they were. No, not at all. So he deserved all of his defensive player of the years. The rest of the guys
Starting point is 00:44:36 weren't as good like this guy, like these guys on his team. He deserved his defensive player of the years. Because he anchored their defense. Yes. Yes. Yes. Rudy is not anchoring their defense. Who is? What? The guards. The guards are. The who? Come on, man. You are tripping right now.
Starting point is 00:44:52 So what happened? What are y'all talking about? The guards are anchoring the defense. What the fuck did they do to Murray? Are y'all serious? What did they do to Murray? Oh my God. What did they do to Murray? They showed you. They showed you. They showed you what they did. If you don't like Rudy. They showed you what they did. If you don't like Rudy.
Starting point is 00:45:05 No, no, no, no, no. Just say you don't like Rudy. You didn't like Rudy when he got choked by Draymond. I know. You didn't like him either. Y'all both don't like him. No, okay. Just say that.
Starting point is 00:45:15 You sound crazy saying he got the anchor on his defense. Let's just go back. Who was the anchor of the Utah team? Let's just go back. Defensively. He wasn't there. The anchor wasn't there yesterday. How did Murray look
Starting point is 00:45:28 with the guards playing defense? Oh my Lord. Was it just, I just wasn't there the first game. I'm not, I'm not asking, I'm asking,
Starting point is 00:45:34 where was he last, he wasn't there a game too. Did the, did the guards have trouble keeping the motherfucker from the rim? Cat was the anchor. Ooh.
Starting point is 00:45:44 Oh. Ooh. That's not an answer you was looking for. Cat was the anchor. Oh. Oh. Oh. That's not an answer you was looking for. So wait a minute. It wasn't no guard. That was an anchor. Hold on.
Starting point is 00:45:52 It was the center. Okay, thank you. So you took the four-time defensive guy out of the game and we put a motherfucker who can't play defense. Who can't play defense?
Starting point is 00:46:03 Cat. Can't play defense by himself. Oh my God. And he looked amazing. Now Cat can't play defense. Who can't play defense? Cat. Can't play defense by himself. Oh, my God. And he looked amazing. Now, Cat. Garden Joke. Now, Cat can't play defense. When did he become a defensive player?
Starting point is 00:46:12 When did he become a defensive player? That's crazy. That's the crazy part. That's crazy. Now you think he's a defensive player. Can he play defense? When? Name me a year that he don't play defense.
Starting point is 00:46:22 Name me a year where someone said he's a defensive player. Just give me. Give me a year. I don't have to give you a year where someone said he's a defensive player Just give me give me I don't I don't have to give you your you don't have one with somebody What year Fucking sinner he blocks shots. He moves his feet. He knows how to play defense, bro He may not be as good in positions against good offensive players, but he plays defense. Well, you're just I played even a soup up in positions against good offensive players, but he plays defense. What year? I play defense too, my brother. You said you were a defensive player. James Harden played defense too. You said you came in as a defensive player. Don't make me doing good at the job.
Starting point is 00:46:55 You said you were a defensive player. We all have to play defense. You said you were a defensive player. We don't have the ball. We on defense. Don't mean we doing a great job at the motherfucker thing. You said you were a good defensive player. We don't have the ball. We on defense. Don't mean we doing a great job at the motherfucker thing. You said you were a good defensive player. I was. You said it.
Starting point is 00:47:10 So why are you not now? All of a sudden, for the sake of argument, you're not a good defensive player. You came in. I go to Arizona. I fucking play defense. I was picking niggas up. I'm going to start to be arguing and you want to say I don't play defense.
Starting point is 00:47:25 I didn't play defense. Can you use facts? You say, come on, man. Stop it. They put Cat back there and they... And he was the anchor. He was the anchor. What is an anchor?
Starting point is 00:47:34 And the motherfuckers think he scored 100 points. What is an anchor? They didn't miss a beat. What is an anchor? They didn't miss a beat. What is an anchor? You tell us. Oh, my God.
Starting point is 00:47:42 Now I got to tell you. I'm asking the question. What is an anchor? So does the last motherfucker that get to do his job? The last person okay get to do the job. Okay, so Ben Wallace was the anchor For the Pistons the last motherfucker to do their job. Yeah, right. So without the last motherfucker to do their job He earned it. He not Wendy Rudy He earned it. He earned it. So, Wimby and Utah absolutely.
Starting point is 00:48:06 Utah absolutely did. Utah absolutely did. So, Rudy, Utah he did. I'm saying this. In Utah, yes. This one, no. Minnesota. No. He had. No. Not because he won it. Not this one.
Starting point is 00:48:22 That's why he gave it to him. Not gave it to him. Gave it to him. He didn't to him. Gave it to him. He didn't fucking earn it. So the anger. The anger is. But he earned the other one. Hold on. He earned the other one.
Starting point is 00:48:31 I said he did. Okay. Hold on. So I'm giving him credit. Absolutely. I just wanted to make sure. Not this one, dog. Not this one.
Starting point is 00:48:37 So the guards. Not this one. So when these guards don't play defense, he's the anger. So that means he has to clean up all of the mistakes on the court. The anchor, right? You take him out and you put someone else in. They not doing what he did, right?
Starting point is 00:48:54 Can you agree to that? Can you take Wimby off his team and you put another center in there on his team and he can do exactly that? No, because it didn't happen. Rudy. No. Rudy. No. you can put Rudy on the spur We're talking about his team now we're saying this is the most this is the best defensive player in the league you remove him you say are a cat go down and play defense. And they hold the MVP,
Starting point is 00:49:26 finals MVP, a champion. The two dudes that average a triple-double killed the Lakers before they shut them both down without the best defensive player in the game. So maybe, maybe, maybe Conley is great at defense. Remember did play in memphis where he was a
Starting point is 00:49:48 defender um we say what's the name is a two-way player right baby michael jordan he's a two-way player right he shuts down yeah he shuts people down that's what we say right two-way player so that means both your guards are defenders there there's no leakage here so by the time they get to you they done already did 95 of the work is what we're scrambling man i know ain't nobody scrambling y'all scrambling you know why y'all scrambling because if you took and you put them on the motherfucking timber you know what he'd be what rudy he'd be he'd be rudy i mean he'd be rudy He'd be Rudy. I mean, I mean. He'd be Rudy.
Starting point is 00:50:26 He'd be the guy that say, if I take him off this team and he go get his baby, the team don't move a beat. The team is still going to be the team. It don't matter who's in that position because the team is a great defensive team. Wimby, come play with the Wolves. Rudy, go to the Spurs. Duh. Listen to me.
Starting point is 00:50:42 Duh. You just proved the point. They're both interchangeable. They're both interchangeable. They're both great defensive players. Just one's on a very good defensive team with other good defensive players. So it doesn't diminish what Rudy's doing. So therefore, you go with the numbers then.
Starting point is 00:51:03 Oh, you don't go with the numbers. Because it depends on what team you're on Okay, man Because the talent of being a defensive player is the talent It's not depending on okay I'm on a bad team and I got to do all this other shit doesn't mean I'm a better defender than this guys minutes It doesn't mean I'm a better defender I'm just saying you you just said you just said you can take, the team is so good at defense that you can
Starting point is 00:51:28 pull anybody out and make him Rudy. No, I didn't say anybody. I said you can take Wimby and Rudy and interchange him. And then you can take Rudy and put him over in Spurs, but he can't be Wimby. Why can't he be Wimby? Because he don't score?
Starting point is 00:51:46 Because he ain't ever averaged them numbers. He can still get those numbers. When he was in Utah and his team didn't play defense, he could do that. He never had. He won the defensive player of the year award three different times. And he's never had those numbers. He doesn't have to.
Starting point is 00:52:02 Obviously, if he won the award three different times without those numbers, he doesn't have to. Obviously, if he won the award three different times without those numbers, he doesn't have to have them. You proved it right when you just said the team is a great defensive team. Great, we know that. Yeah. So his job is not as – he don't have to do the job like everybody else. I've already said that.
Starting point is 00:52:18 So we asked the chat – I said you proved the point. I've already said that Rudy's job is less because it's better players. It doesn't mean that he plays less defense. So we asked the chat, was Wimby snubbed for defensive player of the year? 3,100 people voted. 72% said yes. We also had the chat, can Cat play defense?
Starting point is 00:52:33 Over 2,000 votes. 57% said yes. 43% said no. But let's keep it moving. How many? What's the percentage? 57 to 43. Okay.
Starting point is 00:52:41 This man said he don't have to play as much defense And win the war like that shit, I don't think he hears what he says He said he don't say to play defense. You heard that, right? I heard that. Cat can play defense. Think about what he said. I heard that shit. He said, say it again. Y'all want to see two dead bodies? Say it again. This nigga said, Rudy don't have to play as much defense because the other guy's good at defense. And that's why we don't think he should win it because he don't have to play.
Starting point is 00:53:20 You heard that shit? Y'all want to see. He don't have to play as much Since because the other guys around him a guy He just had no This is your words your words Nobody's scrambling and I was very next we're saying that he's but he gets to play 50% and Winning the war why dude has to play 100. I don't gotta and let me everybody and I don't gotta convince nobody That's our fan. We all else, y'all saying.
Starting point is 00:53:45 We all heard what y'all said. We got to argue this. You said. You said. You got caught. Rudy Gobert deserves it. Nah. Y'all disagree.
Starting point is 00:53:53 We cool. We got the points. Everybody good? We good? Hug it out. Y'all need to stand up and hug it out. Man, come on. All right, okay.
Starting point is 00:54:00 I'll just say it. Just say it. Come on. Look at how the mood was on Wednesday. So, Jamal Murray, we talked about Jamal Murray game two, had his worst performance in the playoffs in the game two loss to the Wolves. He was still dealing with a calf injury, but three for 18 from the field. Damn.
Starting point is 00:54:13 Damn. Was it? He was what? This boy crazy. He was three for 18. Three for 18. Damn. Rudy was back there just defending that shit, huh?
Starting point is 00:54:20 He won't let it go. Yep. He won't let it go. Rudy missed game two. I just three for 18 your already got up. Rudy missed game two. Rudy missed game two. He going straight for that win. He going straight for it. The whole need to straight.
Starting point is 00:54:33 You won it for us. But let's check the video out again for those who didn't see. So Murray let his frustration get the best of him. And we're seeing throwing a heat pad and towel in the direction of an official. And I will never not crack up with the heat pad just lying on the court. You can see him on the left tossing the heat pad. He also threw a towel. That was, yeah, he can't play football.
Starting point is 00:55:01 You a hooper only. He's Canadian. They don't have their football. No. The Montreal Alouettes. All that goodness. The He-Pet actually landed on the court.
Starting point is 00:55:18 Tal landed right near. So, landed on the court. But now Murray's pockets are a little lighter after the NBA fined him $100,000 for the incident, but opted not to suspend him for any game. And as Wolves fans pointed out, Rudy Gobert was fined the same amount earlier this season for directing the money gesture at Scott Foster during a regular season game, I believe a loss against the Cavs.
Starting point is 00:55:43 Murray was also spotted briefly doing a similar gesture Monday night, but did not get fined for that. But do you agree with the league's decision just to fine Murray and not suspend him? I mean, I guess you don't want someone to get suspended and cost a
Starting point is 00:56:04 game, but you have to be... earned it you yeah i mean he did earn but you have to be you have to be consistent across the board right it has to be some type of consistency so if someone got fined a hundred thousand for just doing this you can that didn't this didn't injure nobody. Right? It ain't, motherfucker, you in they pocket? Your hundred thousand, you wanted to prove a point, he threw a whole heat pack on the court. He threw something at the ref. If a fan did it-
Starting point is 00:56:34 They'd be banned for life. They'd be banned for life. And if he hits the ref with the hot pack, he missed him. But as you guys mentioned yesterday, it didn't happen, but say that heating pad goes on the court and one of them dudes slip on it. No, just imagine if Cat go up to shoot that layup and his plant foot. It's up. Right? Tear something.
Starting point is 00:56:57 He's out of his season. Tear something. Just imagine, though. On my end, it's up. Great possibility because KCP kicked it. It went this way. Yes. It could have went up under the boy's foot. It could have went. Listen, man. It could have been all bad. It's it. It went this way. Yes, it could went up under the boy foot
Starting point is 00:57:05 He could went listen man. It's wet. It's soggy all that all bad It's the heady pat is soggy and wet for those who doggy wet the floors little wet. So I mean it's just one of those things is The intention. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah fuck the dead that the what was his intention merited Yes, so the intentions is the suspension. It merited suspension. Yeah. Did he mean to hit Mark Davis with it? Yep.
Starting point is 00:57:31 Did he mean to throw it on the floor? You don't know. The fact that he did it, it merited something more than $100,000. And this is because, like you said, if Rudy got $100,000. Especially if Rudy got this for $100,000. You can't. How frustrated you got to be to do some shit like that? What?
Starting point is 00:57:45 Yeah, you got to be fucking frustrated. Yo. You have to be. You're right. To do some of the dumbest shit. And you're not in the game. The dumbest shit you could possibly do in a playoff game. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:57:57 Like, that's the dumbest shit you could ever do, is just get up and go, ah! What? Are you okay over there, bro? No. Are you okay? What's going on? Hey, so you didn't hear me yesterday, right? There's nothing more frustrating or debilitating when you can't score, right?
Starting point is 00:58:22 Man, listen, he didn't know what to do. He ain't never had nobody play defense on what to do. He ain't never not like Nobody play defense on him like that. He never been in solitary They ain't never felt that and Normally doing a regular season certain thing they get bailed out with calls, right? And they wasn't bailing them out with that shit. You got to play through contact. You got to play through this. And they used to the whistle always blowing.
Starting point is 00:58:50 Now he had to, motherfucker, it's your fault, Mark Davis. Man. Mark. You know what I'm saying? Fuck. So did the NBA feel like a better punishment was, no, you ain't running from this one. You're going to play game three and get clamped again, though. No.
Starting point is 00:59:03 I didn't even talk about that. Can't fuck up the line. It's just Now moving forward I'll be what is they going what I'm saying is that this is the line and that the line right now is if a player is Frustrated he throws something on the floor. It's on the town. No at a ref as long as it doesn't hit the ref Or whatever he's on a bench 100,000 that's crazy. You cannot now For the next person throw a suspension on him.
Starting point is 00:59:29 And what happened to ripping your jersey? What happened to going in the back and kicking it, throwing something? Just walk into the locker room. Yeah, just being frustrated. Yeah, what's wrong? Because that wall, that wall, that wall, you can't beat that wall. I didn't say hit the wall. Somebody did and they hurt the person. They broke their hand. Amar Stoudemire punched the fire extinguisher thing and cut his hand and missed the playoff game. You can't beat that wall
Starting point is 00:59:49 Mars thought of my punch the damn fire extinguisher thing and cut his hand mr. Plow Just stupid No, I didn't say punch the wall. Just take a walk to the back Whatever you got to do kick the trash can is plastic your foot gonna go you gonna boom is gone Just take a walk get the get the wasn't the board To do I ain't got no mouthpiece. I ain't got no box of mouthpiece. I'm going to say this rubber got there. No, you got to be pretty mad. He be pretty mad now. You got to be pretty mad. I'm hot.
Starting point is 01:00:36 If you think about it, you got to be pretty mad to be able to do that. I get it. It's just like a stress ball. You got a stress ball. I got a few of them over there. It might get to the point where I might end up in the stands. It might end up somewhere. But it ain't going to hurt nobody.
Starting point is 01:00:51 Mouthpiece, headband. Nuggets are fanning fans for sure. So I got to ask y'all this. I did one day. Fans was doing this shit. Because it's wet as hell. Oh, yeah. I was a fourth quarter sweatband. I was a fourth quarter headband.
Starting point is 01:01:02 That's a heavy one. That's a heavy one. Who is that? Everybody getting wet. Yo, that shit was... It was a fourth quarter sweatband. It was a fourth quarter. That's a heavy one. That's a heavy one. That's a heavy one. Everybody getting wet. Yo, that shit was. You see people head by the stands like this. Watch out. Watch out.
Starting point is 01:01:12 Watch out. Get up and wear that motherfucker. I was like, ooh, ooh, ooh. My bad. So if the series was tied or the Wolves were down 0-2, would Murray have been suspended? It don't matter. It don't matter. I'm just asking.
Starting point is 01:01:23 It don't matter. Do you feel like the current situation with the Nuggets, the league? So now you're playing favoritism. So now you're asking if they're playing favoritism. Yeah. No. Yeah. No, I don't think that.
Starting point is 01:01:33 Whoever did that. Yeah. And Jamal Murray. I think they're saving it, though. I personally think that they're saving the series because if he gets suspended for that. It's a wrap, bro. It changes a lot. Even if you think about the Vegas line.
Starting point is 01:01:48 Think about the Vegas line. It doesn't matter. What I'm saying is you cannot cheat the game itself. A punishment is a punishment. When you're setting examples around the league, right? When you set an example for a young fella, he ain't hurt nobody. He in his own car. You suspended him, damn sure sure right john morant you got him out of it there was nobody involved it was just him in his car right so when you're sitting here setting examples and you're saying now it's
Starting point is 01:02:18 okay to be mad that you're not getting calls and we can throw shit at the refs off the bench and all it costs is $100,000. That lets you know, motherfucker, when I'm mad. I'm going to throw this cushion. Yeah. We losing by 20. Man, man, fuck you. Boom. Hopefully it misses him. The Pat Bev thing, right? Whatever his
Starting point is 01:02:39 consequence is going to be, it's just very similar. But that's a fan. This is a fan. But that's a fan. This is on the court. On the court. During the game. Not even at the end of the game. If you say throwing something at a fan is $100,000, throwing something at a referee,
Starting point is 01:02:54 what is that? I mean, you have to, you have to. There are very few things that you can be certain of in life. But you can always be sure the sun will rise each morning.

Boston well rested after their gentleman sweep against the Heat. And Cleveland coming off their game seven win over the Magic on Sunday. The Celtics got big games from Jalen Brown and Derek White to take an easy 1-0 lead in the series.

Never looked back. Jalen Brown finished with 32 points and six rebounds, including 20 in the first half, going 12 for 18 from the field in the game.

Starting point is 01:09:27 When do they start? When he turn his back. Because he's... Yeah, when he turned... He started in the corner. Yeah, when he turned... When he... And he started counting
Starting point is 01:09:34 when he got to the post, like... Didn't they start that with Charles Barkley? Yeah. Oh, that was in the Lodafito line. No, no, because remember Charles Barkley,
Starting point is 01:09:42 when he was with the Phoenix Suns, he used to catch the ball at three-point line and then take 35 seconds, even though it was a 24-second shot clock, and take 35 seconds to back him down to score, so they had to put a rule in. I mean, you know. I thought the rule started, like, after they changed.
Starting point is 01:09:55 Charles Barkley did, too, below the free throw. I don't know what it is, but I saw him count. It's basically as soon as you turn your back. So if you turn your back and then face back up, counts off. So it's just your back to the basket. Yeah, he's just backing down different ways But he went but once you turn it oh this is a sweet I mean you can be pretty and just blow it, but I've never seen that in a long time. I ain't never seen it. I haven't seen it. I haven't seen that in a minute. So this was the Celtics' 19th win this season by 25 or more points,
Starting point is 01:10:31 which is an NBA record. But how does the Celtics' win affect LeBron's legacy? I'm just fucking with y'all. I mean, you know, the legacy at all. I'm just fucking with y'all. They're going to get one more chip. Like, I'm about to go 30 miles, and they're going to get one more chip that they don't deserve. Hey, I've seen him queuing that shit up, too. He's over there like, I'm going to with y'all. They're going to get one more chip. Like, I'm about to go 30 miles, and they're going to get one more chip
Starting point is 01:10:45 that they don't deserve. Hey, I've seen him queuing that shit up, too. He's over there like, I'm going to get him with this. I'm going to get him with this. I have my moments. I'm going to get him with this. I have my moments.
Starting point is 01:10:53 People in the chat, y'all can hate all y'all want. Director Paisley came two days ago, and I'm feeling good. So what are y'all thoughts on this Cavs-Celtics game? Damn, two days ago. That was my fifth?
Starting point is 01:11:01 Y'all, different deal than you, okay? Oh, I see. Different deal. 31st! God damn it. In deal. 31st got to be. In transit. In transit. If it falls on a Sunday, my shit better hit. What y'all think about the series?
Starting point is 01:11:14 Kenny, you said sweep. That's what, I mean, you know, we could talk about the Cavs, but let's not waste our time. Seems like a tune-up for the series. No, they in the series. They got to play the game. They got to show up. They getting the check, at least. Yeah, they definitely. The playoff check is going to be nice for the second round, but that shit got to play the game. They got to show up. They're getting the check and leave.
Starting point is 01:11:25 Yeah, they definitely are. The playoff check is going to be nice for the second round, but that shit going to be four games because, yeah, they ain't got enough to compete with them. And Jason Tatum had off night. Any night, Jada went for 32. Jason Tatum can show up tomorrow and have 40. It just – don't know on Porzingis if he's coming back this
Starting point is 01:11:48 round or not. If he is... No Jared Allen for the cap. No Jared Allen for the cap. That's a tall task. No rim protection. Evan Mobley's all right, but it's just a tall ask, man. The real problem with them... They have three guards.
Starting point is 01:12:05 Kyle's got three small guards. Right? You're talking about 6'2", 6'3", 6'2", 6'3". And Max is what, about 6'3", 6'4"? I mean, Jason Tatum's fucking 6'9", 6'10".
Starting point is 01:12:15 I mean, they're just, you know, they're just going to sit there and pick you apart, posting up mid-range. It's, it is, you know,
Starting point is 01:12:22 you sit there like, yeah, they're going to be done by Sunday. Yeah, they just going to make it hard on the two guards, man. Darius Garland and Donovan Mills. He's at 33, but it's going to be high volume of shooting to get those points. They're going to make him work for every bucket. Rashad.
Starting point is 01:12:40 Eric White playing out of his mind. Out of his mind. Celtics fan. Yeah. What do you think about your squad? Yeah, I like to talk basketball, man. So when it comes down to analyzing their play, I'm kind of a little disappointed in my team. Even though everybody's saying Derek White's playing out of his mind, I don't think so.
Starting point is 01:12:58 I think he's being very consistent in what he brings to the table. 25 is an excellent game for him. I think his consistency is bringing to light how deep they are. Drew still hasn't played an excellent game yet, 14 and six. Jason Tatum to me right now is the biggest worry because he looks lethargic. He looks like he's coasting and it's like he's saving his legs for the big game. And I don't want him to get out of whack and out of rhythm and have to get himself up for the big game after they get past this. So they're treating this kind of like shell defense in practice. This is just a team that's out there in our way. We're going through practice, going
Starting point is 01:13:41 through the motions. I like that Jalen Brown gets his opportunity to show what he can do when he gets down to the nuts and bolts of it all. He can really show he can drive it, shoot it, score it in different aspects of the game. I like what Al's doing holding it down, but the disappointing part is to Cleveland. Garland has just been a disappointment for me watching him play. He's not living up to the potential. Like I texted in a group chat, Cavs going to be in trouble if they focus on stopping Donovan Mitchell and making Garland play. And the one thing they did was just that.
Starting point is 01:14:20 Like, Garland, you're going to have to play. And he didn't show up. So you can't depend on Okoro. You can't depend on Struce and Niang. And you definitely can't depend on Big Mobley to do anything for you in the aspect. He's going to give you what he gives you, but he ain't no 20 and 20 guy. No.
Starting point is 01:14:36 So the Cavs are in trouble because they ain't prepared for this. And I think that the Celtics need to push the gas pedal a little bit more because the next round is going to be a challenge, I think, with the Knicks. The Knicks is going to give them a different type of challenge that they're going to be ready for. So talk Tatum a little bit. Tatum, Gil, what's going on? I don't know who the Knicks got on 18, but all right.
Starting point is 01:15:07 I mean, I'm pretty sure they got three small guards, too. The same small guards you said wasn't going to make it out of the first round? Huh? Who said they wasn't going to make it out of the first round? I thought Embiid was going to get hurt the whole time. I guess you forgot that part. Should I see you tapping your foot in the workshop shoes? You know, because I think everybody thinks Tatum is still 6'8".
Starting point is 01:15:31 Let's talk Tatum a little bit. Top five player in the league. Average 27 points, eight rebounds, five assists this season, while shooting 47% from the field, 38% from three. But he's averaging 21 points, close to 11 rebounds and five assists this postseason, only shooting 40% from the field, 25% from three. So in his last three games, he's had scoring totals of 18, 16, and 20. Last year's postseason, Tatum had nine 30-point games out of 20 playoff games.
Starting point is 01:15:59 This playoff, he has none so far. So does he need some dominant games in this series to get ready for the Eastern Conference Finals? Kenyon, I see you right here. How many championships did they win last year? How many championships did? Having nine 30-point games last year. How many championships did they win with all of them? Zero.
Starting point is 01:16:16 I'm just asking. I'm asking for a friend. A big fat zero. Oh, it don't fucking matter. Okay. They got a good team. They got a good, well-rounded team. It don't matter. Okay. They got a good team. They got a good, well-rounded team. It don't matter.
Starting point is 01:16:29 Okay. He's going to have scoring outbursts. He's a prolific scorer. You say he look lethargic. Yeah, he crewed like this is, he don't have to be his best against Miami. He ain't got to be his best against Cleveland. He probably ain't got to be his best against Cleveland. He probably ain't got to be his best
Starting point is 01:16:45 in the next round. If he don't play his best if they get to the championship and then we can have this shit talk about. Those wins a 4-1 first series. This shit could very well
Starting point is 01:17:02 be 4-0. What are we talking about? If they was losing and he was putting up those numbers and it was tough series and all that shit, absolutely. As you mentioned,
Starting point is 01:17:14 the competition hasn't been necessarily up. So why are we... So yeah, because the competition hasn't been there, what is he dominating? Yeah, and he's averaging... The game is over at halftime. 21 and 11.
Starting point is 01:17:26 He's averaging a double-double. So, he's focused. I'm not scoring the ball the way I feel like I'm, but I'm going to go get the ball off the glass. How many assists? Six? Close to five, I believe. 5.3.
Starting point is 01:17:38 Five? Remember, the game is over at halftime. I get it. Right, they've won. Every game they've won, they've won 20, 20, 14, 34, last night 35. How is he going to get to 30?
Starting point is 01:17:53 How is he going to get to 30? The game's over. Putting him in there a minute, some wrist hurts. Yeah, he's only playing 30-something minutes. He's getting in and getting out. There's no impact. He's fortunate to get his double-double. He's fortunate to get his double-double. He's fortunate to get his double-double, plays a couple minutes, they win, blow their asses out,
Starting point is 01:18:10 and he gets to chill for fucking until the championship. That's going to be the real threat. There's nothing like it in the playoffs. So do you expect him to be able to turn it on? He's planning... He's 27. He's averaging 20. He's not turning nothing on.
Starting point is 01:18:25 He's going to be more aggressive. The more important the games are and the more he's needed, he's just going to be more aggressive. That's what... I think the conversation is, is he going to have a rhythm? He's fine. Is he going to have a rhythm? If he's off now...
Starting point is 01:18:41 I'm not worried about it. But what I'm saying is... How do you find the rhythm when... How many shots do you him to take in when the game's over at half take a 19 when but what i'm saying is when the game is over at half like do y'all not look this is not a three point win a four point win a five he ain't hitting no game winners he ain't hitting no shots in the last five minutes because he ain't in the game no but you're looking you're looking you're looking at it from a box score standpoint you look at the at the box score, but we're watching the game. So, where's the-
Starting point is 01:19:07 So, I'm telling you, in the flow of the game, he looks off. He looks lethargic. Okay. He doesn't look like he's in a rhythm, the same rhythm that he would say. Because these niggas suck. What I'm saying is, he wasn't playing against Jimmy Butler. He was playing against Jimmy Butler. He was playing against Jimmy Butler. I'm just sorry.
Starting point is 01:19:30 So he ain't out there cooking, but he's out there just doing enough to win the game. I'm pretty sure he in the lab getting extra shots up and doing what he needs to if he feels that way, what you're saying. You know what I'm saying? I'm pretty sure if that's the way he feels he's doing something about it but the competition right now doesn't merit that jason tatum has to be on his a game because they still winning by the average winning by fucking 22 in this span that's why i disagree right i think that the game the game he lost the killer mentality warns you to be on attack mode.
Starting point is 01:20:06 Don't take your foot off the gas regardless of who you're playing. It don't matter. They're not taking their gas. Don't play to the level of your competition. That's my best bet. But we're beating the shit out of you. I get it. The game they lost, right?
Starting point is 01:20:17 The game they lost where he had to play 41 minutes. He had 28. 50% from the field, right? Because that's the only game he had 28 50% from the field right because that's the only game he had other than that he's sitting but that's a normal night for him
Starting point is 01:20:32 28 all the other nights are him struggling like he's you said he has 21 but you're not that's only because of game one
Starting point is 01:20:42 or the last game where they were up by 34 he only shot nine shots. I mean, you know, when you're sitting there, the motherfucker, 20 to 5. Yeah, I'm not worried. Yeah, I mean, there's no worry about it. Trust me, they had playoff runs where we were running through teams. You were running through to the finals?
Starting point is 01:21:03 Yeah. Okay. So it ain't no, you're going to play well in some games. We running through team you just walk running through to the finals. Yeah, okay, so they know You're gonna play well some games in some games that you got bitch gonna go in the basket some games On a few shots you can go 10 for 12 or you can sell them for 21 or you you can start it on Right But he's doing what he needs to do to put his team in position to win. He's doing other things.
Starting point is 01:21:26 And that's the moment. That's the 5-1 in the playoffs. Getting wins right now is the only thing that's important to them, right? No matter how it look and no matter,
Starting point is 01:21:35 I get what you're saying, absolutely. If you're looking at it, yeah, it looks like he's not in rhythm and all, but if that's the way he feels,
Starting point is 01:21:43 I guarantee he ain't getting extra work in. You know how that shit go, man. Like, Derek Wright, 16 shots. Drew Holliday. When you seen Drew Holliday take 14 shots? These are the...
Starting point is 01:21:54 This is the matchup where everybody else gets to try to do a little bit of something. So they have rhythm by the time we get there. But that rhythm is not coming. Pritchard, 12 shots. That rhythm is coming in the
Starting point is 01:22:06 minutes where the game is out of reach. It's not coming in the decisive minutes. That's what I'm saying. In the decisive moments of the game- The first quarter? The first quarter. The decisive moments of the game where they're extending their lead and they're putting pressure on them, Drew Holiday and them are not taking all those shots to be able to you know make it look like it looks in the box score Jason Tatum is struggling that's what I'm seeing and he may not be struggling from a standpoint of the fans or what they're watching I'm just seeing the the frustration and the aggravation of shots not going down him trying to find it and him doing other things to impact the game yeah rebound and assist assist. He's doing what a winner's supposed to do with a winning team.
Starting point is 01:22:46 But I'm noticing that if he don't get that rhythm, it's going to bite him at the end when he gets to the promised land and he wants to perform at that level, and you don't got that rhythm. And that's what I'm, as a Celtics fan right now, that's what I'm looking at. I'm like, all right. Has he even played the last five minutes of any game besides the first one? Or the second one, the loss? He ain't even been
Starting point is 01:23:08 in in crunch time. Reminds me of what Steph Curry did that year when they was out the whole fourth quarter. Conversely, talk about Jalen Brown. 24 points per game, seven rebounds this postseason. Shooting 55% from the field, 38% from three. Leading the Celtics right now
Starting point is 01:23:23 with 18.3 field goal attempts per game. Does that have any bearing on you, just given what the competition's been and how well he's been playing? Man, that's what they, like, he's been consistent. Like, that's, it's been consistent. Like, he can play that way. They up 20. Like, they are filling voids and doing what they're supposed to, right?
Starting point is 01:23:43 He's being aggressive right now. He has something on his mind where he's're supposed to, right? He's being aggressive right now. He has something on his mind where he's trying to accomplish, right? No matter what nobody else, however nobody else looks, I'm going to be, this is what my focus is in mind, right? I need to play this way in order for us to have a chance. Or it can be a misconception. You feel like fool's gone a little bit, or? It's easy to play this way
Starting point is 01:24:10 because we have no chance of losing, so you're more comfortable. You're very comfortable out here. You ain't got to worry about no... There's no threat in those positions for them two right now. Who is the threat against them? No one.
Starting point is 01:24:26 So there's no real worry. You go out there and you just play free, right? We see what happens when they're tested, right? We see where they go ghost. Some of them go ghost when they're tested by another superior player. They don't have to worry about that here. Even in the next series, right?
Starting point is 01:24:44 Those, Jason Tatum and Brown, who they got to guard? your player, they don't have to worry about that here. Even in the next series. Right? Those Jason Tatum and Brown, who they got to guard? Who on the other side in Indiana or Knicks that those two players have to worry about? Holiday and White?
Starting point is 01:25:00 They're going to have their hands full if they go against that blue and that orange. But Jason Tatum themselves themselves they ain't chilling right and that's that's the thing they're not like ant-man where he had to go against katie booker and what's the name now he has to go against somebody and he's being battle tested these got a cakewalk all the way to the championship until they play ant-man and now, who do you think is going to have the more energy? But they're playing Ant-Man in the championship. Ant-Man had to battle.
Starting point is 01:25:31 He has to battle all the way through. These two are just walking all the way through. So it's basically who's going to have the legs to go against who. So there's obviously way more playoff experience. They've been in these situations before. Yeah. Let's see how it feels. It reminds me of, like, I was doing a stat, and I was trying to figure out why certain teams
Starting point is 01:25:47 was winning, right? Like, a team on the East, how did they beat this team? And what ends up happening is a number one seed and a number three seed in the West, by the time they finish battling and they play in the championship, they don't have no legs for this team. That ends up happening a lot too.
Starting point is 01:26:07 Same thing with players. Like you can lose your star player because of the battle he had the night, the game before. That's why I like Klay Thompson. Sometimes he didn't perform well in the big games because if you looked at his matchups, round one, two, three,
Starting point is 01:26:21 you know, you went from Paul George to James Harden to Dame Leonard. Those are his matchups. By the time he got to the championship, he couldn't even take advantage of J.R. Smith. That motherfucker got dead. I'm dead, dog. I mean, it happens. Let me ask you this. So you don't think that the Knicks will give Boston a run for their money?
Starting point is 01:26:48 No, I didn't say that. I'm asking you. No, I didn't say that. I'm asking you. I don't think they're going to give... You don't think the Knicks will give Boston a run for their money? No. Why not?
Starting point is 01:27:01 Because they have players that can try to contain Jalen Brunson and neutralize him. There's nobody in the Knicks that's going to neutralize Tatum, Brown, and all of them. There's one dude on there that makes everything work. The other team is a whole team. So I don't see how the one person is going to run through them. So you think that the Knicks have used one guy to run through,
Starting point is 01:27:32 get to where they are now? Or have they played as a cohesive unit? They played as a cohesive unit. So to come back to what you just said. 4-1. I believe. 4-1. I believe the way the Knicks are playing, they can literally have Brunson give you 35-40.
Starting point is 01:27:51 Those other guys do what they do best. What, in this series here? In this series here? Same. When they face Boston. If they face Boston. If and when they face Boston. Yeah, I got something.
Starting point is 01:28:01 I beg to differ with that one. The reason why I ask you that is because I hear you always comparing the one-on-one matchups as if those one-on-one matchups are going to be the reality of the series. And when we look at Minnesota versus Denver, you say, well, there's no way Minnesota's going to beat Denver because of the one-on-one matchup. It's a mismatch. Who's going to guard Joker? Who's going to beat Denver because of the one-on-one matchup. It's a mismatch. Who's going to guard Joker? Who's going to guard Murray and them in the pick and roll? Then we see the team step up and play together to isolate and to destroy all of that.
Starting point is 01:28:38 So I say that the Knicks can do the same type of thing with those one-on-one matchups. I don't think they can. And I say, all right, if Brown and Tatum, like Tatum's not playing good, like I'm saying now, my worry is if he tries to cut it on in the New York series without no rhythm, it's going to be bad because those dudes in New York are playing together where they don't solely have to depend on Brunson to take them all the way home. They play together. What are you, huh? The boys scored 40 points, four straight games. Yes, they relying on fucking him. Yes, they are. To bring them home.
Starting point is 01:29:07 Yes, he is. He's not scoring 110 points. If he averaged 21, are they winning? He's not scoring. If he averaged 21, are they where they are right now? Is he winning by 34 points a game? We don't know. We do not know.
Starting point is 01:29:21 You're true. We don't know. We don't know. Let me just say that. Is Devin Chinzo capable of giving you 30, 35? We don't know. Not if Brunson had 40. We don't know if Devin Chinzo is capable.
Starting point is 01:29:34 Going against Brown? No. First of all, you know what I said is I said it's a cakewalk for Tatum and Brown because there's nobody on the other team, the Knicks, that's going to be challenging them personally. They don't need to be challenged. That's why I just said to you, you keep comparing personal individual matchups, and I'm saying it's a team game. They don't have to be worried about being challenged. We're playing team defense.
Starting point is 01:30:00 It's a team thing. There is not going to be an individual matchup they have to worry about. It's going to be the team. We're going to, if I'm typical, is we are focused on stopping them as a team. This is not an individual matchup here, guys. Sound good. You want to put some money on it? It sound good.
Starting point is 01:30:16 It always sound good when it come out of my mouth. So, I mean, I know, but do what you put. It always sound good. I give you, I give you. I said it always sound good when I say it. I give you a ten of one. I give you a ten of one. See always sounds good. I give you 10 of 1. I give you 10 of 1. To you alone. I give you 10 of 1.
Starting point is 01:30:29 You're the only one with that saying. I can tell you how good it sounds. You're the only one. That nigga's spitting facts or no. To the nigga that says it. I give you 10 of 1. It's a nigga that says it all the time. It ain't spitting facts or no.
Starting point is 01:30:40 That's your problem. It's not an actual fact. It's an opinion. Because you said it. We don't know until they got to get out of this round. Died Stradamus. So put some money on him, Mr. Stradamus. I ain't got no money.
Starting point is 01:30:53 He said you got to up the race. You got no money. This is better for them shoes. I'll take them. This is better for the hat. Motherfucker shirt. I'll bet something. Shout out Karl Lamar.
Starting point is 01:31:02 Everything is personalized. Don't pay. Everything is custom. I'll bet something. It's all Lamar. Everything is personalized. Everything is custom. I'll bet something. It's all personal. It all got its own scent to it. It smells a certain way. I'll wear it like the girls do when they leave the house. I'll wear it as a skirt if it's too big.
Starting point is 01:31:18 I'll wear it around the house. We got a great Mosey fans question that involves Tatum from underdog fantasy user Droxos. He said, based off a recent play Would you take who would you take to start a team Anthony Edwards or Jason Taylor? So why you got a base in on recent playoff? It's been why not? Droxos why you why do you have to base it on recent playoff before? So I think that's how they're looking right now, so but What didn't have they was like the his first playoff series last year?
Starting point is 01:31:48 Like, he just started, right? Yeah. That's correct. Next fucking question. So, based on now and overall, what you've seen in Ant's now three playoff series or two plus? Jason Tatum. Okay. That's –
Starting point is 01:32:01 Fuck. Trying to get the man his money. More playoff experience. Trying to get us money. Trying to get us a dollar. I'm going with the guy with more playoff experience up to this yes. Fuck. Trying to get the man to play. More playoff experience. Trying to get us money. Trying to get us a dollar. I'm going with the guy with more playoff experience up to this point.
Starting point is 01:32:08 Okay. Like, the man didn't play. Hey. Lost his first playoff series last year 4-1. He won the first two this year.
Starting point is 01:32:17 Let's, what the fuck are we talking about here? On his third playoff series. Looking impressive, though. Hey, hey. That he is. When you talk about trajectory. Okay. Looking impressive, though. Hey, hey. That he is. When you talk about trajectory, where it's going compared to where we've seen it's gone.
Starting point is 01:32:32 I understand that, but I'm going with the more guy, the guy as of today who's played more playoffs. With more experience, okay. That's all I'm saying. I'm going with the guy. Even at the same age, 22? Tatum was a better player. Tatum was a better player. Yeah, so that's... Tatum was a better player than Ann at age 22.
Starting point is 01:32:48 He was already a two-time All-Star and All-NBA player, averaging more. Okay. That makes him a better player? By 22. By the question they asked. By the question they asked. I'm just saying. What was the question?
Starting point is 01:33:01 Ann went to the finals two times by that age. Tatum. Tatum Tatum So the question was based off of recent playoff performance, but we can extend it out to overall who would you take the star because it's unfair to say recent because one is walking through the India like he's just Like I said, like we're penalizing someone because he doesn't have to go hard. They got a great team. Yeah, right That's just it's just a fortunate matchup for him, right? I mean... That's all. The guy's been consistent.
Starting point is 01:33:29 It's just in certain games, the shit ain't win his fucking way, man. Like, I ain't gonna penalize the guy because he... No, it's a team. Like you said,
Starting point is 01:33:35 it's a team game. The team ain't sold out. The team ain't do that. You gotta choose. I said Jason Taylor. You said Taylor? I said Jason Taylor. I'm going Ant, for sure.
Starting point is 01:33:43 If the Wolves were in the East in the Celtics position right now. If my auntie had a... I understand. And I know where Hope works at, Kenya. I know where Hope works at. That was pretty fast.
Starting point is 01:33:53 You did that pretty fast. I know where Hope works at. But technically, it'd still be your auntie just with a D. Through our logic. Through our logic. It'd be your auntie just with these things. Through our logic. Through our logic. It'd be your auntie with a...
Starting point is 01:34:09 Today's society is your uncle. If your auntie was your uncle, I would like to speak to the man in the house. But... God damn. But... That shit fast as hell. I mean, wolves running through this East similarly. I mean, I'm just...
Starting point is 01:34:22 Yeah, if the wolves was in the East, walk away. Absolutely. The way they defend, they got a superstar. They got a superstar, they got bigs. I think this is like, it's one of those
Starting point is 01:34:33 setups, it's one of those setups really for Boston to win, right? All the stars are aligning right now for them, right? And B gets hurt,
Starting point is 01:34:43 right? When you talk about the three teams that everybody had, it was Boston, Philly, Milwaukee, right? And B gets hurt, right? Giannis kind of took them out. They didn't. They're not in the second round.
Starting point is 01:34:58 And you got Giannis gets hurt, Dame. They're not in the second round. And Jimmy Butler, too. And Jimmy Butler. So for the most part, everybody who's really the best player right now in the playoffs is Brunson. That's their fear. Yeah. Right?
Starting point is 01:35:18 Yeah. The other side, you're playing against Hall of Famers. First ballot. First ballot just beating up on each other, right? No matter where you go. I mean, the easiest matchup, and that looks like a hard matchup too, is OKC.
Starting point is 01:35:32 And that's going to be a dogfight. And they're going to dogfight because they got young and talented. But that's what I said. It's like the West is going to just beat each other up for Boston. By the time one of them West teams get there, they're going to be fucking tired. That's why I said even with Brunson, Brunson's doing everything in his power day in and day out to keep this team going.
Starting point is 01:36:03 He's playing at 110, 120%. You can't ask this man to do nothing. I can't even put you on the bench for five minutes, dog. I guarantee you if they are practicing, he ain't. He ain't doing nothing. He ain't doing nothing. I need all your energy to be focused on the game, sir. I'm looking at you.
Starting point is 01:36:19 You trying to come out? Not right now. Time out. Time out, sir. Time out before I'm going to sub you out. So he's, by the time they get through this round and they got a face, it's... He's playing close to 44 minutes. Motherfucker's been burnt out? He's buying in the quarters. Huh?
Starting point is 01:36:37 He's buying in the quarters. He's taking them out at the end of quarters. 30 seconds. 30 seconds. 30 seconds. I'm saying a minute and a half before halftime. It depends on the score at halftime or a minute going into the fourth, a minute and a half, four minutes.
Starting point is 01:36:49 He ain't coming. Look, that's- As I said, he don't have that- 30 seconds in the first, 30 seconds in the- Yeah, right. A minute and a half somewhere. He buying a minute and a half, two minutes with him on the bench at some point. Yeah, at some point.
Starting point is 01:37:00 At some point, that's all this rest this boy is getting. The whole starting five. Yeah. Josh Hart, don't you think about coming out this day. What's so funny with Josh Hart is I'm at this point with him. I don't know what he's worth, but whatever he says, I'm like, all right. His value is so hard to determine because when you tell him to do it, he doing it right 25 13 12 13 18 13 he tells me yo i'm worth 20 million a year i'm like all right fuck it you know what i mean i it's he's one of
Starting point is 01:37:36 those guys it's hard to put a value on him but he got to continue to do that yeah but that's what i'm saying it but it might be a year where he don't and then in the playoffs when you're like yo i need you to turn it up but i got it like he's one of those is he can be underpaid or overpaid there's no you sign exactly what you're worth yeah hearts played all 48 minutes in three of the seven playoff game that's what i'm saying don't you think about getting like it's one of those like if he tells the Knicks a I'm I'm for you 100 Yeah, I bet cuz he can see the thing is see this work like he's playing all those minutes out because he can rest but he's Fucking but nobody's no he's resting on offense at time. Josh. Harding. Let's he's listen what? There be three four five six possession he might not touch that means yeah
Starting point is 01:38:25 So he's getting the rest on offense. But he's going to go offensive rebounds. That's what I'm saying. Offensive rebounds when he needs them and shit like that. So he's keeping the offense alive by doing that. He's the energy. See, this is my thing. Steven Chinzo, when he was in Golden State,
Starting point is 01:38:42 I consider him a valuable piece to that team when he was there. He could do things that was needed of him. Gets to New York where he's with his nucleus from college, championship. So when you have that championship nucleus where you guys know what it takes to get there and you know what it takes to do the things that you need to do to get there, playing the minutes is going to be warranted because you want to do that shit like josh hart is that he's been that type of player brunson has been that type of player but we never seen it until now because he's in the position to show that d vincenzo been the same type of guy where he played behind steph curry clay thompson baymont green all those guys right so now everybody's in the front now playing 40
Starting point is 01:39:23 minutes a game is is nothing to them, especially when you're in shape. Jay Wright kept him. It was preached to them that you need to be in shape in the Big East to be able to compete for a championship. So when I look at them three in New York, I just give a whole different energy to the to the take of saying New York is going to do something different. Because one, like you said, they're going to play a lot of, and they may seem to be burnt out because no one's used to playing those minutes. But when you're effective during those minutes, every minute that you're out there, it rubs off of the rest of the team. So now you got OG.
Starting point is 01:39:56 The rest of the team. OG. OG. OG. All certain guys. Yeah, yeah. I'm going to work you. You have to play a short roster at that point, and that's what Tibbs is used to.
Starting point is 01:40:07 Short rotation. I need guys who are going to play big minutes and going to be effective in those big minutes. That's why New York is scary as fuck. Because even in the off nights Brunson didn't score 40 before he had this streak, they still got there. They still got there. Josh Hart stepped up and hit big shots. Even Chinzo stepped up and hit big shots. Robinson stepped up.
Starting point is 01:40:28 Big blocks, big rebounds. Even with Harkinstein. Harkinstein looking like he trying to get some money. He looking like he trying to get some money out there. He is a black man in America. That's the problem because you're going to have to pay them boys. Yes. Any good agent, any good agent, heart is getting about 100, 125.
Starting point is 01:40:47 It's going to be hard to put, like, his numbers don't match. I don't give a fuck what he averaged in regular season. When we needed to win games and he turned it up. It's like Derek White right now. Yes. Right? They value just jumps. Now the fact that they go to the Eastern Conference Finals. And New York on it might be like a
Starting point is 01:41:09 That Miami team. Yeah Everybody's worth too much for me. I can't even 40s. What's the Vincenzo's a three-point percentage Oh D even chins Oh Be rich, I guess Yeah, we're shooting 40% Yeah, but they don going to get 4-1. 4-1, 4-2 at best. Hardenstein will be a free agent next year. Might need to change coast. Come over to this west side. Because I know one building that New York ain't infiltrating.
Starting point is 01:41:34 That's that Boston building. They ain't coming in that Boston building yelling that shit. Talking about the fans. You ain't going in Boston. I wish you boys would. I wish you boys would. I wish you boys would. I wish you boys would. Let's keep it moving.
Starting point is 01:41:49 Head back to the West. Mavs and Thunder meant OKC for game one of their second round series Tuesday night. Mavs knocked out the Clippers in six this past Friday. But it was the Thunder's first game since sweeping the Pelicans on April 29th. Series features two MVP finalists in Luka and SGA. And SGA and the Thunder took round one. So the Mavs were down 11 early in the third quarter, but cut the lead to one with 725 remaining, but then the Thunder went on a 23-13 run to close out the quarter, take a 10-point lead into the fourth. SGA continued the ball, almost had a triple-d points nine rebounds nine assists and two blocks He was eight for 19 from the field 11 for 13 from the line
Starting point is 01:42:29 Chad Holmgren Resher rookie extraordinaire 19.7 rebounds in three blocks He was a for 16 from the field three for five from three Jalen Williams struggled in the first three quarters But came up big for the Thunder in the four score in ten of his 18 points in the final quarter Oh, you see Chad, I heard getting there. Aaron Wiggins was off the bench, 16 points, 5 rebounds. 3 for 4
Starting point is 01:42:49 from 3. Makes sense. But Luca had another off-shooting night. 19 points, but 6 for 19 from the field, 1 for 8 from 3. He had 9 assists and 6 rebounds, but also had 5 turnovers. Kyrie had 20 points, 3 assists. He was 7 for 14 from the field, 3 for 4 from three. He had nine assists and six rebounds, but also had five turnovers. Kyrie had 20 points, three assists. He was seven for 14 from the field, three for four
Starting point is 01:43:08 from three, but he also had four turnovers. And Daniel Gafford, 16 points, 11 rebounds, five blocks, but did not play the last nine minutes of the fourth quarter. So the Thunder gave the Mavs their worst loss so far in this postseason. Mavs were dominant on the boards, 52-39, but the Thunder had 16 offensive rebounds, season-high 25 second-chance points, and they are now 5-0 this postseason. So before the playoffs started, we talked about the Thunder. We said youth may be an issue. Facing the Pelican squad, no Zion, you know, swept that one, but it's kind of, you know, their first real test this postseason going against his math squad Can you how do you feel like the Thunder looked in game one?
Starting point is 01:43:50 Dominant like a number one seed So not a fugazi number one seed a real night swept Swept the first round shit with three With three guys like like dudes on that team. No, they were the number one seed for nothing. The staplers defense, the defending. They have a guy in Lou Dort who they could unleash on just about anybody, and he's going to make your job that night difficult.
Starting point is 01:44:25 You got to be on. If you're on, you're on. But then they got guys that's hooping, man. They're well coached. Superstar in shape that's showing why he should be MVP once again. I like what I saw in him, man. I like what I saw him in the first round against Phoenix and so far this round. There's nothing like playing at home the first couple games, man, especially for a young team. They haven't had to go on the road. Like, them first two games, having them in their building is important. But they're coming to play.
Starting point is 01:45:02 They're coming to play, and they're trying to make a name for them young selves, man. That probably was the longest they were at home probably all season from that last game. 29th to the 7th, yep. Oh, just getting to chill at the crib, too. Chill at the crib. What I've noticed, what I did notice here is
Starting point is 01:45:24 that's going to be a problem for Dallas is they're not the typical NBA team. They're not sitting there chucking threes for the most part. Shea is coming to the basket. Jalen's coming to the basket. Chet is coming to the back. Those guys are not going to just be sitting around the three-point line chucking them joints. You get a switch, you put a big guy, he's not going to settle.
Starting point is 01:45:49 Shea is coming. He's coming into the lane. He's trying to make left, so he's putting too much pressure on the rim. All them young boys are putting pressure on the rim where when Shea gets to going, you can see the big man's tracking him. Well, if you're going to track me, that's Chet back there, right? And then Chet is like, I'm going to dive don't go to them too like so the fact that they're not
Starting point is 01:46:09 gonna settle for the three and they're gonna keep putting pressure on that rim that's gonna be something that dallas is gonna have to this ain't paul george and then that's gonna be sitting there pop pop pop take a sidestep and shoot a three nine Nah, they ain't trying to get two points. They doing everything the analytics is saying don't do. They making layups and mid-ranges. Three is worst-case scenario. I see three things, three keys. I see preparation, I see discipline, and I see execution. I see that the coaches prepared them, which got a report of exactly what we need to do to isolate
Starting point is 01:46:46 and basically dissolve Kyrie and Luka out of the offense. And that's to keep your discipline in our game plan. Discipline. Young players are easier to, I guess you would say as a coach, manipulate when you want them to do what you say. So these young guys have been taught a way through this system to be able to be disciplined in what the game plan is. And now they just got to execute it. Now the execution is going to come through. All right, Shay, do what you do, but still be unselfish. All you guys be ready to fucking shoot when we're ready to shoot.
Starting point is 01:47:25 Jalen Williams, we need you to be you when it's time to be you. He struggled for the first three quarters. He didn't let up in the fourth. Ten points, take him over the top. But what was more consistent for all of them was the defense. Like you said, team defense, stay together. That's going to be the three keys for them to blow past Dallas because Dallas is not used to that. Like you said, they're not used to playing defense on the perimeter
Starting point is 01:47:46 where they got a guard to drive. They're used to motherfuckers bailing them out, and that's why those Clippers, they got their ass whooped because they was bailing them out. It made Luka look like he was playing defense. It made Ty look like he was playing defense. And elbows and boxers only works to a certain extent until you start driving.
Starting point is 01:48:03 Then you got to worry about rim protection. And if you don't got that, you're exposed. Chet's there. Offensive rebounding. He's going for the lob. You got no weak side defense. It's exposing the West Coast and the Western Conference is exposing who's a good coach and who's not. And I think Finch, and I don't know the name of the OKC coach.
Starting point is 01:48:24 Dagnall. Dagnall. Dagnall. Those two guys are the least likely two guys that you would expect to have their execution down, their strategy down, their preparation down, and their team playing as a cohesive unit. No, it's just winning is a learned behavior, man. Them guys, they preached it all season. They had success doing it all season. So it's easier for them to continue to buy into it now.
Starting point is 01:48:48 To the game plan, to attention to detail, to going out and executing the game plan. They did it all season and they had success doing it. Number one seed. Number one seed all season. Minnesota was fighting for number one seed all season. So those are teams that's well coached to OKC, Denver, Minnesota. They all coach together. That's crazy.
Starting point is 01:49:13 I don't know if OKC coach did, but Minnesota coach did and Denver coach. That's crazy. So it's just attention to detail, right? It's attention to detail that's going out and telling them, being honest with them, if we play this way, if we do A, B, C, we get good results. In fact, do your job. That's exactly what you're preaching right now. You do your job and we do it. I do my job, he do his job, we all, then it comes together. And this is the game plan, this
Starting point is 01:49:40 is the focal points, this is the duh. And these are results. It's 5-0 so far in the playoffs. And that's a recipe to your point once again. Going out and defending the same way, game in, game out, with the same intensity, added with the game plan. Because they got young minds over there. It ain't this old school way of coaching and thinking basketball. So that's helpful
Starting point is 01:50:10 when you got young energetic minds in the building that's willing to learn. Yeah. Willing to learn. Willing to learn. And then they're doing an excellent job at grooming them dudes into complete NBA players.
Starting point is 01:50:22 And it makes sense to them. When it makes sense to you, it's like, oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, this makes sense. And the great thing about it is you can see they like each other. So they want to go out and compete for one another. Right? You have success, yeah, I'm happy for you, I'm happy for him,
Starting point is 01:50:38 I'm happy. So we all winning. We got an MVP over here that makes all of us look great that got us on TV. Yeah, yeah, facts. Right? So we all can display our talent and We got an MVP over here that makes all of us look great that got us on TV. Yeah. Yeah. Facts. Right? So we all can display our talent and it's fun to watch, man.
Starting point is 01:50:51 And as you know, if you're really a student of the game or you're trying to be a coach or something, you have to look at the game different. You can't look at it as a fan. You have to look at it as you're trying to learn why this team is successful versus this team and look at the strategies that different coaches have, right? And you start picking up telltale signs from that, right? Like now looking at how they played, he was like, damn, damn Clippers, if you were to probably put in P.J. Tucker for some time and just say, I need you to hound this dude
Starting point is 01:51:30 Pick him up full court instead of weight hound them hound them for you know, five minutes a quarter getting them tired Right. That's odd. That's all I need you to do right? That's what doors out there doing Yeah, I was telling KJ listen anytime you gonna throw you out there dog anytime They're gonna throw you out there anytime. They're gonna throw you out there cuz you can bring energy Jalen Brunson you got six fives you go out there you young athletic you gonna try you strong you ain't go give ground I'm just telling case they read a minute shit and moment gonna throw you out the dog a minute You never know let me fucking never did But it's that kind of a switch and a change and that get young mind that energetic young mind that want to go out and Succeed at exactly what you're asking them to do. Mm-hmm, right And that get young minded energetic young mind that want to go out and succeed at
Starting point is 01:52:06 Exactly what you're asking them to do. Mm-hmm, right But this is why a player Sometimes is suited like when you're talking somebody like Brunson, right? You have to look at all the players that played exactly like that and then do a study on How were they stopped if they were stopped, right? What type of player hurt their game, right? There's always a matchup that takes away from a player, right? And, you know, there's always someone that's built a certain way
Starting point is 01:52:38 that just has this number. That's what you're supposed to be looking for. What type of player that will give Brunson troubles? It ain't going to be someone the same size. He looks like he's fucking up everybody anywhere from the age of 5'10 to about 6'8. 6'8 to 5'10, Brunson got that matchup. Skinny guys. What does he do against skinny guys?
Starting point is 01:53:02 And that's why I say different player for offensive guy different you need a different package For different types of players like they're stronger players You need to have a package for them finesse finesse game or you know You have to have against skinnier guys longer you gotta have different prep and that's what he's unleashing against everybody Right. You can see the smaller guys He gonna bump into their body do us fade away the other ones you gonna hold him hold him back here, right? Let him go let him fall into me like he has these little tricks, but because he's small he needed to learn them all He's had to always use yeah, he knows that that's thing like people like damn. He really can do that
Starting point is 01:53:42 He's been that height for a long time And he's really good at being that high So he's perfected playing basketball at that height to get the maximum ability cuz he ain't like owner people don't really like he not He ain't grueling On how many years probably says eight great eight now. He probably been there. So he's had to play that Well, that's like I've always said that about small guards you see him a real nice. Mm-hmm They've been that size so they've had to do it at plant because they're our sport. Mm-hmm the taller the better. Yep right
Starting point is 01:54:17 So he's had to play against guys did that in his whole life and he's been counted against his whole buzzer's height probably a lot Mm-hmm. I'm gonna show y'all right now right I'm gonna show y'all and I've been said I said all anytime I see them smart already that's about to get off because he's gonna murder well if you his height yeah you six six or under he is punishing he punishing you and you're not athletic and you don't use your hands. You're not athletic. Your feet ain't. He's going to abuse you. This is an even five,
Starting point is 01:54:50 like even five, when he was five, five. Six, two is the same. That's the same. He's done perfected this plus six difference. Yeah. Like he's one of those guys
Starting point is 01:55:01 you might fuck around and just have to just put a big dude on him. Just go out and pour Zingas. Just go. Nah. No, I'm thinking somebody. Two guys that can actually guard him are on his team.
Starting point is 01:55:12 Who? Hart and OG. He fucked them two up. OG. I think OG might have a better chance. Hart know how he plays. But it don't matter. But it don't matter.
Starting point is 01:55:20 He's strong. He is hype. There's nothing he can do to him. He's fucking you up. You're going to try to use muscle against him. No, I'm not. He'll get his shot off 100% of the time on Josh Hart. Well, getting your shot off is different.
Starting point is 01:55:36 No, good looks. No, good looks every time on Josh Hart. Josh Hart, good looks. Good looks every time on Josh Hart. You need someone who's strong and just long. It's like Carolynolingos. You know, K-Marks, you have to put like a mobile four. A mobile four long three against him.
Starting point is 01:55:53 Yeah. Karolingos would have been it. Because he's a bucket. He shoots. He's a fucking shooter first. So the first thing he's thinking about, I need to back you up a notch. Yeah. And that jab step.
Starting point is 01:56:03 And I'm like, ah, ah. It's that jab. Yep. He's going to keep moving around. He I need to back you up a notch. Yeah, and that jab step, and I'm like, it's that jab. Well, he's going to keep moving around. He's going to bait you to shoot. I don't know about y'all, man, but I be studying these niggas, man. I studied this, man. I broke him down. I understand where he get his shots.
Starting point is 01:56:19 I see it's exactly what he like to do. And when he's stuck in situations, he use his pivots to get a shot off because he's left-handed. So as a right-handed defender, you try to get there, but you're not expecting it to be the way he shoots it because he's left-handed. So a lot of times,
Starting point is 01:56:32 if you're a smart defender, you know how to get, you know where he's shooting that shot. You know how to get to it. You know how to get in his way. You know how to stop him from going left.
Starting point is 01:56:41 You want him to go right, but you know you don't want him to go right all the time because he can't finish going right. So it's like, if you but you know you don't want him to go right all the time because he can't finish going right. So it's like, if you got help, you got to send him to the crowd. It can't be no one-on-one shit. You cannot guard Brunson one-on-one, and that can never be anybody's...
Starting point is 01:56:54 That can't be the mission. I'm trying to stop him one-on-one. I need help on this nigga, man. I need help. I need y'all to be in the way because he don't like the crowd. 40. Give me 40. Yo. Give me 40. I saw a clip the other day of myself playing San Antonio.
Starting point is 01:57:12 Ran a pick and roll with Ginobili, right? Of course, we're going to switch it. I'm switching to everyone, right? I got down to my shit. He tried to do his. And when he get ready, I pointed right, though, right? Soon as we switched to pick and roll, I sat on the left and I pointed this way, right? as we switched to pick and roll I said on the left and I'll point it this way. Mm-hmm, right This motherfucker still tried to go left. I he went I took the ball from him Started the break and Blake went down it motherfucking, right? I'm like
Starting point is 01:57:38 Did he actually think Do you do so he didn't see me point right like this is the way I'm telling you that you're going to go right I broke down I pointed right here this way right in front of our bench it was in front of the clip of the bench I pointed this way like no you're going this way came down and tried that
Starting point is 01:57:56 he tried it he tried it anyway man give me the ball in the middle of your move like no dude no, dude, I'm not him. I would have just handed it to you. Like, left-hand guys destroy, especially when you get to a certain level, they destroy right-handed defenders because right-handed defenders are always taught the same thing. Push them to their weak hands.
Starting point is 01:58:22 So we just think everybody's right-handed. We naturally just, as soon as a player come down, you just sit there in this stance. Since we was little all the way, we're naturally trying to push everybody to the left hand, which gives a left-handed guy that advantage because naturally
Starting point is 01:58:40 we're going to react the same way every single time. Open up. Damn it. God damn it, he is left-handed. Move these puppies, dog. One thing I'm doing, I'm moving these puppies. Listen, you got to be, and this is just no knock against it, he's that dude because if he's at that level,
Starting point is 01:58:59 he had to be that dude. When you see somebody like Earl Boykins, right, playing game, he had to be that dude. What you think somebody like earl boykins right playing game he had to be that dude what you think you're gonna do against him everybody he grew up with tried to that's what i said he let me know how important a pump fake was right and understanding like he's the first person i had him you know my second year and he was talking about human behavior right he's talking about human behavior he says i, I said, man, how do you keep pump faking the fuck out of these dudes?
Starting point is 01:59:27 He says, I'm little. They want to block my shot. And he says, they want to not even block my shots, they want to embarrass my shot. Right? So when I get ready to shoot,
Starting point is 01:59:38 they want to try to smack it into the crowd. They're not sitting here just doing this. They're sitting there trying to load us. Get that shit out of here, dude. So I know when I come and do my step back and pump fake, they're going to
Starting point is 01:59:50 sit there and try to do one of these so they're going to always jump past me where I can just go up and under and shoot my shot. So they're going to give me, I can't shoot over them naturally, but all I have to do is pump fake knowing they're going to try to swat it and I just seen him. He got Tim Duncan. Huh, Tim Duncan's hot. Huh, Tim Duncan's hot.
Starting point is 02:00:06 Huh, Tim Duncan's hot. And I'm sitting here like, yo. He says, like, you remember? He did it three times and Tim Duncan just swatting, sitting there doing this and he just goes up and up. And he's going to run dead at you and stop.
Starting point is 02:00:21 And stop. Then hit you with the pump. No. It's human beings. And stop stop You would like it with the pump a little it is No, it's human being is human a I just human nature what a person is natural tendencies against you Like I tell all the time man, I'm firm believe in that shitness use it against them use people human nature human is against Because it's good. They gonna do it every time. I mean, I know He had the check eyebrows that's not gonna like the fact that I against him because they're going to do it every time. I mean, I know. He didn't have the pump fake. He didn't raise his eyebrows.
Starting point is 02:00:50 Chad's not going to like the fact that I talk like I know what I'm talking about. But like you said, human behavior and natural instincts and all that shit, right? That's still defensive discipline. Stay down on the pump. All the natural fundamentals of defense that you learn if you were taught. Certain players have a certain skill set and everybody has different skill sets whether you right-handed or left-handed and if you're a good enough player you analyze all of those things and there ain't a there ain't a player that you haven't seen there's always a player that got some shit that you've seen you can compare it to so it's always all right this is a lefty who likes
Starting point is 02:01:23 to go here he likes to shoot the floater he don don't like this. He don't like that. When you pick up his dribble, he's not going to pass it. He's going to try to find a way to get his shot off. Stay down on the pump fake. Make sure you get to the shot. Make sure you get to the right hand. Make sure you get to the left hand. I'm not going to let him go to the hand I can't get to. I'm going to push up. I'm going to scrape for the ball. I'm going to make it difficult on him because I'm going to make him move and guess every time he got the ball. I'm gonna make it difficult on him because I'm gonna make him move and guess every time He got the ball. I'm not gonna get him in a comfortable position But you know, I ain't nobody
Starting point is 02:01:51 So, you know sound I never did shit, but I did study the game So when I can break down a motherfucker D and I can go out there and guard him and show you I would I Got cooked all my whole career, right? No, no, facts. He got cooked his whole career. I cooked the fuck out that dude right there. Yeah, yeah. Was that the Gilbert cooked the F out of you? No, come on, man. He can't beat me in nothing. Right now. I shot 50%, 60%, 50%, 47.
Starting point is 02:02:18 Against the Timberwolves. Against the Timberwolves. I scored 33, 34, 38. I was out there eating. You got in the game. Yeah, I ain't never guard you, though. Why? Because I shut that shit off.
Starting point is 02:02:34 That's why. That's why you played point guard. That's why you didn't play over here with us. You had to guard me. You didn't play over here with us. You had to guard me. You're not like us. You had to guard me.
Starting point is 02:02:42 You're not like us. I know. You're not like us. I know. You're not like us, man. I was playing. You're not like us. I was playing. You're not like us, man. Now I'm going to go to the highlight. You're not like us. You had to guard me. You're not like us. I know. You're not like us. I know. I was playing. You're not like us, man. I was playing. You're not like us. I was playing again. You're not like us, man.
Starting point is 02:02:47 Now I'm going to go to the highlight. You was playing the point guard. So you said you knew the guard. You was playing the point guard. You was playing the point guard. But I was a scorer. You was playing the point guard. Aren't you the defender?
Starting point is 02:02:55 You was playing with them. And you know point guards over there, shooting guards over there. Did you have to come get me? No. I was a shooting guard. No. I was guarding Karan. I had to guard Karan.
Starting point is 02:03:03 No. Yeah. No. Yeah. I was a big hacking. No. No. I was guarding Karan. I had to guard Karan. No. Yeah. No. Yeah, I was the big hacking nigga. No, no. I wasn't guarding the point guard.
Starting point is 02:03:10 Marco Yards and Troy Hudson had me. No, no, no. For sure. You didn't switch on me? Nah. And if I did, I fouled you. And if I did, I fouled you. I fouled a lot of niggas.
Starting point is 02:03:18 Oh, no, man. I think I got you. It's very rarely that niggas got me buckets But what number were you? What's your number? one This is always killed ones. I always do this with that one. I always never Neo They had to stop me all different ways just let Neo go out there and play. I'm going to check the game. They had to put Neo in the limbo.
Starting point is 02:03:47 Bro, but let's talk a little bit more about this Mavs Thunder series. We kind of veered off a little bit. I mean, I played 47 minutes, dog. I played 47 minutes one game. You played 11, so we had to come across each other. It was a game. Probably the game. Probably the game I had like 19 one game against y'all.
Starting point is 02:04:06 No, no you had zero. 19. No, no it was... What's that? My vision, Gil. It was zero. Josiah, you a sucker. You know that.
Starting point is 02:04:15 I stared at the screen too long, K. You a sucker. My screen time. Y'all be trying to bring me in this shit. I'm ready to do it. You don't know how to look good in this one. Yeah, you can't make me look any bad than I already look, man. We know you was good.
Starting point is 02:04:23 You know you was good, Gil. You know you was good, Gil. You know you was good, Gil. You know you just saying, you can't make me look at, you can't make me look any bad than I already look, man. We know you was good. We know you was good, girl. If you got to feel good about all that, you can't beat me right now, bro. You can't fuck with me right now. We've proven that.
Starting point is 02:04:38 You can't fuck with me right now. That's all I give a fuck about. We never play right now. Right now, I ain't worried a goddamn thing. You right right now. That's all I give a fuck about. We never play right now. Right now? But you right. I ain't worried a goddamn thing. I ain't worried about a goddamn thing. You right right now. In nothing. In nothing. In nothing. I'm not worried about you in nothing.
Starting point is 02:04:53 I will beat you in anything. Let's get back to the... In anything. So if I challenge you right now, right now, you're going to say yes, let's do it. No, I'm not going to say yes. Rashad, you know you can't say anything. He got an earner right here. You know you can't say anything. He got to earn it right. You know you can't say anything. The deal's already processed in that one thing.
Starting point is 02:05:08 He ain't, man. You know who he's going against, man? I'm that nigga, man. So let's talk a little bit just about Luka and some of the struggles. We had struggles even in the Clippers series, but Lou Dort only scored seven points in the game but did his job on the defensive end, holding Luka to his lowest scoring output this postseason,
Starting point is 02:05:25 snapping his streak of 24 straight playoff games with at least 20 points. But what can Luka do to get out of the torture chamber? I don't know. I'm not going to do going to play tough. He can play the same defense and Luka come out there and motherfucking have 45. Facts. That's facts. He can't, but we have not seen...
Starting point is 02:05:46 I'm just saying, he can play the exact same defense on him. He can come out and have 45-point triple-double tomorrow. Whatever they play... Good defenders, we try to make it tough. If you're missing shots, we look great. Right.
Starting point is 02:06:04 We look great if you're missing shots. Now we get to talk about him in a positive light and we come out tomorrow He have seven and Luke will have 47 and they lose then but he played the same defense So he gonna he's gonna come out and guard him the exact same way because he had success doing it. Yeah He ain't gonna do nothing different But from Lucas Lucas standpoint, you watching this whole playoffs, has he looked like the same MVP level?
Starting point is 02:06:30 Whatever. Bad knee, bad ankle, bad... Has he been an MVP level? Has he been looking at the same level in this postseason? They made out the first round and the second round.
Starting point is 02:06:39 I mean, we was talking bad about him. I was averaging 29, 10, and 8. Yeah. Thanks. Like, my only thing, my only gripe about what Luke has going on, I just think he needs to stop complaining so much.
Starting point is 02:06:51 That's my only thing, man. Because you get, the ref's not going to give you the whistle even more now. Yeah. You're too good. You're really, really good when you just hoop. Yeah. So just go hoop.
Starting point is 02:07:05 Facts. Because right now, they're not blowing the whistle man on purpose you may and you look you look it looks real bad just Constantly complain and cons because you do during regular season and other people say but now it's only a few games on and the whistle It's not blowing doing regular season whistle blowing a lot, right? So it don't look as bad when you're playing about calls because they're giving you calls after you complain at times. Yeah. You complain now, they're looking the other way. That's been the theme throughout the playoffs for not just Luka but everybody. Yeah, for everybody. So they're swallowing the whistle in this playoffs. They let you bang and play. So just go hoop.
Starting point is 02:07:41 I think it's just because you're spinning. It's a lot of energy that you could use in other ways. It's this roller coaster of emotion for you during the game, and it's not good for your morale and good for the… I was just about to say that because you see him when he get calls. He's smiling. He's, yeah, man, I'm trying this. Now what I seen last night is that the no calls took him out of the game mentally and he's standing at half court and that's the energy that
Starting point is 02:08:11 I've seen in other players before is when you take somebody out of the game like that kind of like Jamal Murray he was so frustrated he threw a hot pack on it's like Luka would have thrown a hot pack on the motherfucking flow if he could have that's how frustrated frustrated he was. To the point where he's standing at half court, he don't want to be a part of the offense. He's like, well, there's nothing I can do. They're not calling no fouls, so I'm just going to let y'all play. And that's the frustrating part about it. Like you said, if he comes back in, next game he just shoots the same shots.
Starting point is 02:08:36 He hits those shots. His energy changes. He's one of those players that has to see the ball go in for him to play good. And that's unfortunate because he's going to have off nights where he needs to still play defense, still offensive rebound, still see the ball go in for him to play good. And that's unfortunate because he's going to have off nights where he needs to still play defense, still offensive rebound, still slash the ball. He's not giving his team a chance because he's taking himself out of the game because he's not playing well. That's part of it. You got to be able to play well when not playing well.
Starting point is 02:08:58 You still can put pressure on the defense without the ball going in the basket for him because he's so dominant a figure with the ball in his hand so him being aggressive making plays towards the rim you still don't have a lot of still so for your point for him staying out there not engaging at times it's a little weird it's weird to see there's one thing that I've noticed between like the two stars him Luca you try to figure out like their games when she doesn't like because she doesn't have the ball as much as you would think just when he does have it he's gone yeah right when he's
Starting point is 02:09:32 like you know everybody's coming down doing it giddy's doing it everybody's playing well when he gets it he's attacking he's not sitting there bringing it back out unless he already has the ball but for the most part if he's on the wing or something or in a deep corner once he catches the ball he's going i don't know if luca right now and this is a lot of stars because they don't have a second type of game when their first part of their game gets cut off it's they don't know what to do talk about it right you don't need to attack all the way from the three-point line all the time right you you you're getting to the mid-range. All right, let's mid-post.
Starting point is 02:10:07 Yeah. Mid-post, boom, right there. Now you're at the mid-range. Now you can do your dance right there at the mid-range because that's where you want to go anyway. And I think they're so used to the, he's used to his combo, hit him between the legs, step back. Right? The more threes you take and you're shooting at your big size, you keep shooting jumpers, that helps them.
Starting point is 02:10:30 Because those guys are going to shoot about each. They're going to take 35 threes, but they're going to spread that shit around. Yeah. Right? I'm going to take four, you're going to take four, you're going to take four, three, five. It's not going to be eight from him, nine from him. And I didn't notice that he don't shoot free throws as good as you.
Starting point is 02:10:51 We're thinking. We were thinking. Yeah. Right? He's like with the LeBron. He's like that LeBron stuff, right, where they're good at the three-point line, but they're not very good at free throws. They miss a lot of free throws.
Starting point is 02:11:03 They miss a lot of free throws. Right? Which is weird because, for the most part, a bad free throw shooter, we already know, spends the most time shooting free throws in practice. Absolutely. Right? People think, well, what'd you practice free throws? To be honest, that motherfucker's down here 10 to 1 versus everybody else.
Starting point is 02:11:18 What? We over here shooting 25. That's too many. You got this motherfucker down here. How? You at 25, he's shooting a hundred. For sure. He's shooting a hundred.
Starting point is 02:11:26 That's the rule. That's the rule. The coaches make you do that, too. They're like, you're going to shoot a hundred, man. So you know he shoots a lot of free throws. So the fact that he's 78, yesterday he was 6 for 10, you just didn't think like Luka's. You thought Luka would be like the 88 mark, 92, you know, 89, 87.
Starting point is 02:11:42 You didn't think he was last year 74 74 70 70s consistently Yeah, he's mid 70s. Yeah, so you can't even rely on him getting hit at the end of the game so for Luca do y'all think that The pace of the game for the Mavericks to him holding the ball longer than five seconds as a point guard is really affecting them Like that was it was asking Kenny that last night about you know How long should a point guard actually hold the ball in an ISO situation
Starting point is 02:12:08 compared to how long a point guard specifically when Lucas playing the point and he's up top and he's doing his thing. It's bringing everybody's rhythm down. Everyone's sitting and watching. No one's moving and cutting.
Starting point is 02:12:21 And we're waiting on you to make a move. Me, I don't think there's a time limit on it. For me, I think a point guard or any player, if it's more than three, you should get the fuck off of it. Get off the ball, right? That's my thing. Yeah.
Starting point is 02:12:34 And that's why his point was shade. He caught the ball at the top of the key. They swung it. He motherfucking, no, it was one. He, boom, step back, shot. His reaction to it, when he put that bitch down his left the defender reaction his feet didn't turn he read he Motherfucking read that shit immediately step back shot the three and I was like, yeah So it's one one two one two three
Starting point is 02:12:58 Down here if it's one down here, right one two down here is downhill. It's one, two, three. Down here. Yeah, one, two, three. If it's one, two, three, one, two, three, one, two, one, two, three, four. Yeah. One, huh, huh. Look, dude. Get off it. Pass the ball, man. Please.
Starting point is 02:13:18 Now it's a grenade coming. Now whoever you throw it to, I got to shoot the ball three seconds on the shot clock. And people don't understand, like, even with, like, the James Harden, that's when I say he was scoring so easy he got bored. Because it's one, three, two, four. Right? One dribble, what did you do? You didn't do nothing, gone.
Starting point is 02:13:34 Two dribble, ba-da. Oh, you mean, I'm gone. So I'm playing in a combo, so if I want to go right, it's one, two, three, take off. Yes. Right? If I want to go left,
Starting point is 02:13:43 one, two, take off. Right? It's an easy I want to go left one to take off right? It's a it's a there's an easy combo system. So if I'm sitting here doing this this is just for the fans Yeah, I don't already get that shit Yeah, I'm about to make a highlight oh my bug is even make it way better me you start that shit on me I'm gonna put my foot right in the Come play basketball Gil yes, oh hey that part I'm gonna throw that motherfucker right right back to you You only got 14 seconds, bro, you just took eight of the 14
Starting point is 02:14:34 Do we're doing that shit and the guy told me I can't make those There's two good good players when talking about told other good player, you player, I can't make those. Uh-uh, don't do it to me like that. No, I can't make those. Missed that. Turn over on you. Throw it out of that? Yes. Hey, what's up?
Starting point is 02:14:51 Is he mad at you that you didn't catch it? He's throwing it to me? Yeah. Cut. As soon as you see him, cut. You're not about to put it on me. No, the motherfuckers be serious. Cut.
Starting point is 02:15:04 No, we out here motherfucking too. You're not going to put it on me. Motherfuckers be serious. We out here, motherfuckers, too. You're not going to just spin 23 seconds, dribble the ball, and then throw it to me and be like, yo, shoot. This grenade. No. That motherfucker looking at me there. You was 0 for 6 today.
Starting point is 02:15:17 Oh, hell no. Three seconds on the side. Every time I call him. Pull the pin on this bitch's head and then the hand is now. Here you go, hot potato. No, no. Right back to you, Jack.
Starting point is 02:15:26 Hey, there you go. Three, two, one. Who going to blow up, bro? Not me. Nah, I didn't see it. That's, that's, that's. Doom, doom, doom, doom. I ain't got it.
Starting point is 02:15:40 I ain't got it. Here you go. The nigga just standing there like this. He ain't went no. Has he? I'm going, I'm. The nigga just standing there like this. He ain't went no. Has he? I'm going. I'm across it. One of the two, and I'm going to the basket.
Starting point is 02:15:49 We're not finna sit up and dance. And that's why. Trying to get to the rim, dog. The fundamentals of the game got boring. Where the shit that James doing became fun because it looked good, and then you lose the fundamentals of get by. Shea. Shea is the fundamental.
Starting point is 02:16:04 Get by you. Lay you. But then you watch him and be like, hey, man, that was too easy. Man, it's too easy. But it's so easy. Same thing with Luka. Luka, Ant-Man, it's so easy for, but that's like, when you start putting all these extra moves in for no reason, you just made the game hard for yourself.
Starting point is 02:16:25 Absolutely. Because you done, if you're that skilled, you shook the defense on the first dribble. Max third. Yep. Right? Like, whoever the greatest defender is, you done got him off the first dribble because he didn't expect it.
Starting point is 02:16:37 One, two game, bop, bop. One, two, three, hezzy, then you go. You start getting into four or five dribbles, you defending yourself at that point Yeah, cuz I a dog you don't already shook me Not a lot of people put do that no more what Cuz it's boom boom reach for the You playing with I didn done already did this three fucking times, dog.
Starting point is 02:17:06 Go! Shit out here making me... Shoot one of the two. You sitting there like, I'm mad now. Like... Shit. Okay. Okay.
Starting point is 02:17:18 Come on, dog. Shoot this goddamn ball. I got another thing. I'm trying to get back on offense. You're playing too much. It's the same way every time. Niggas ain't doing it with the right hand or left. It's the same way every time. All defense, we stupid asses.
Starting point is 02:17:36 Here, go again. I got another chance. I got another chance. Ah, shit. Right there. Damn, he can't shoot. Yeah, you right. I'm over here going for it.
Starting point is 02:17:43 He can't even shoot. Knowing damn well he can't shoot. He can't even shoot, nigga. He's doing it for a reason. He can't shoot. Shoot the ball. Shoot the ball. Shoot the ball, motherfucking Henzy. Ah! Fuck. Not a fault of mine. You said Moochie got you with that shit, right? Got me with that shit. Well, he ain't gonna shoot the jumper. Still jumps.

Starting point is 02:26:48 It's worth it. Trust me. $3. Not $3. Not $3. We don't do $3 transactions. Our first question. Oh, my bad.
Starting point is 02:26:56 Underdog fantasy user, Andy C3. Oh, man. What does it mean when the rest of the league uses low management when the Knicks starters play 45 minutes a game? Are the Knicks being careless, or is the rest of the league poorly conditioned?
Starting point is 02:27:13 Okay. Okay, load management, man. Listen, load management was for players that were coming back from injury, right? When Kawhi Leonard was coming back from injury, instead of just sitting him, they figured they could give him 15, 20 minutes, right? Get him back activated to the team, right? It wasn't a healthy person saying,
Starting point is 02:27:39 ah, I'm just going to go ahead and give you 20 minutes today. They changed it. They just gave it a different name. It's fucking minute restriction. It's minute restriction. It's minute restriction He's on minute restriction like when you hear normal people say I was low managing and oh seven. Yeah the fuck like I Couldn't play more than 20 minutes night. Yeah, Jordan and Jordan when he broke his foot and came back and Jerry crosses out that motherfucker light
Starting point is 02:28:02 Time he can't play no more. It's load managing. Because they want to make sure his foot is healthy, so they don't want to put him over the third. It's for injured players. Nobody was load managing healthy players. Allegedly. Allegedly.
Starting point is 02:28:20 Yeah, I was load management. Yeah, because you was healthy. Yeah, what you talking about? I was load managing my whole career. I was all that. Hey, why? Hey, McKenzie only whole career. I was like, hey, why? Hey, McKenna's only played this. McKenna's only played this. Load management, motherfucker.
Starting point is 02:28:28 They was protecting me the whole time. That was the name of it? Yeah. It was load management. Nigga, you ain't play. I was load managed. They was protecting my stats. They was protecting me.
Starting point is 02:28:36 Protecting my feet. They was protecting my feet. They was protecting my feet. They was saving me when they needed me. Yeah. But do you feel like the Knicks in this approach, we talked about it earlier in the show, but playing these guys, you talk about Josh Hart, 48 minutes.
Starting point is 02:28:50 You talk about Jalen Brunson, DeVincenzo, 44, 45 minutes. That is what's the name? That is how you're supposed to play the game. That is how you're supposed to play. These guys are conditioned to play this. If you tell someone who's been playing 32 33 minutes um the whole season and
Starting point is 02:29:12 then you playing against the knicks and y'all go to double triple overtime two games in a row you eat it whoever played 32 minutes that's four games of them for sure that's four games of them they gonna be done because their body's not used to it that's why i said that's why i said i had to learn what the the top top top tier did they did something that nobody does right the season's over with like if you see lebron every year two games after the season he's already back in the rim i mean back in the gym he's conditioned his body to go all the way into the end. We've never ever been taught that. The Kobe's, they're still working out. They lose first round, they still in the gym all the way into the chip so their body is conditioned to go that
Starting point is 02:29:59 far. Your body's not going to know you can go that far until you put it through that type of stress. And then you're depending on your guys. A couple years ago, Nick Nurse's team, Toronto team, I think he was one of the first people to start that shit. Like playing his starters, look at them dudes playing 37, 38 a night during the regular season. So now when they need him to play the 43, 44s in the playoffs and the finals and all that, them dudes was ready. They was ready. So even Kawhi was playing big minutes when he was there. Right?
Starting point is 02:30:27 Yep. So that's what it is. It's a proven formula. But it goes back to how you started, how I started, how you trained and what we do. Practice. And what we do again. Conditioned. And then what we do again.
Starting point is 02:30:44 Practice. And what we do again. Conditioned. And what we do again. Practice. And what we do again. Conditioned. And what we do again conditioned and then what we do again what we do again condition then what we do again practice we built up in the beginning of the season for the duration of the season it probably was bad at the season for the duration of the season. It probably was bad at the time for certain things. I think we did too many tour days. We needed some. We did too many.
Starting point is 02:31:13 But it's needed because you're building your body up for this marathon of a season. That's why I think these dudes now get hurt a lot, man. It's soft tissue injury. It's a groin here. It's a hip. It's a hamstring. It's a calf. It's a... because they ain't built their body up the training camp listen anybody that played when you had two or days and that shit was real your first three four days your first three days
Starting point is 02:31:37 a training camp training camp was the worst part of your season like you knew who was gonna tap that was the worst part was the worst part of your season you He's like, you knew who was going to tap out. That was the worst part. It was the worst part of your season. You were dreading training camp. Man, you hated it. I understand. You can work out all summer. Them first three days of training camp
Starting point is 02:31:57 is hell. Because you got to go and come back. Yep. You go, your nap is interrupted for three days. You in there, bitch. Oh, shit! Ah, Charlie!
Starting point is 02:32:11 Ah! Oh, shit! Oh, shit! Both legs! Both legs! No worse feeling in life than that. No Norma Tech. None of that shit.

Starting point is 02:32:39 They ain't building they self up for this shit. Do they even do two a day? Hell no. Two a day. Not nobody. They might practice five days in training camp. Full of practices.
Starting point is 02:32:52 That shit used to be good for us though, man. I love that shit. Going back and knowing that somebody going to tap out in here. We know who's going to tap out. That was the whole thing of training camp. It's like, we're going to see who's who by day three. Day one?
