Victor Wembanyama Just HIJACKED The NBA MVP Race according to Gil's Arena as the Gil's Arena Crew react to another out of this world performance from Wemby as the San Antonio Spurs superstar dropped b...ack to back 40 point double doubles to continue to make his case as the best player in the NBA this season.

Next, they continue their conversation on the Boston Celtics as Jayson Tatum & Jaylen Brown continue to prove the Celtics are a force to be reckoned with heading into the NBA Playoffs and debate if the Jays are clearly the best superstar duo in the league. Finally, they react to the Detroit Pistons keeping their head above water as they play without Cade Cunningham, discussing if the team being without their superstar is actually a good thing heading into the NBA Playoffs before breaking down the league's proposed anti-tanking rules, sparking a debate on if Adam Silver & the league's top brass are making a bigger deal out of tanking than it needs to be.

Starting point is 00:04:32 You've got to find it on the set, not the video of the eggs. I see one. See, too. There's a few on here. Alright, well let's get into it. So Wizards have been looking like fools all season with the worst record in the league headed for their third straight 60 loss season. Wednesday was no different as the team opted to play a very questionable April Fool's prank
Starting point is 00:04:57 on one unsuspecting fan or so we thought. So let's take a look at the video if we can't please. So the Wizards gave the fan a chance to win 10,000 racks if you could hit a blindfolded half-court shot. As expected, the fan missed badly. But the team pretended like he made the shot as the mascots on the court celebrated with him. So the fan was then handed a big $10,000 check and shown a replay of the shot, which obviously did not go in where he realized he had been the victim of a prank. It was not actually getting the $10,000.
Starting point is 00:05:27 So according to reports, the fan did end up getting an autographed jersey and some court side seats for next season. But it turns out there were some tomfoolery amongst us. So in response to the backlash, the prank received the Wizards put out the following statement today. They said, we apologized for last night's April's Fool's joke that left many wondering if we had misled a fan. The skit involving our mascot and other members of our performance team was scripted and intended to celebrate the day. All participants were in on the joke, but we missed them mark. Our fans are our priority, and we continue to be committed to providing a positive experience to all who attend our games.
Starting point is 00:06:04 To what is doing all that. Have fun. Look at all. I don't know how to do shit right. What can they do the right? Mascot got his ass whooped. Wizards have not released a statement apologizing for letting Ban put up 83
Starting point is 00:06:19 on their head. But was the Wizards, April Fool's Prank Fowler, funny, Swaggy, former wizard here in the building with it? Hell no. They better pay fans to go to the games. Give them what the hell? You see how empty the whole
Starting point is 00:06:34 first team roles was? They're playing a joke and it's five people in the crowd. That's crazy All the people That was at the game was on the court Who's laughing Who are you playing the jokes on?
Starting point is 00:06:49 Who are you playing a joke on yourself? Oh shit That's how you know you're crazy When you start playing April Fool jokes on yourself Like Wizard trying to enjoy the day Obviously been a very tough season
Starting point is 00:07:01 They already are April fools All year Got smacked by the Sixers PG put up what All year has been April Fool's I was a wizard April Fool's prank foul or funny, a lot of backlash on the internet. A lot of people were not feeling the joke.
Starting point is 00:07:17 And then after they said it was a skit, still not feeling, and people still don't believe that that fan was not a real fan. Shit, it's better than the work, not showing up for work. And then posting a picture with some other niggia that hired her. So shit, I was more traumatized than that. That ain't nothing. reservations and all kind of shit man I'm gonna say April food
Starting point is 00:07:43 April foods I was all in too Flowers and shit God damn man Yeah that ain't nothing that ain't nothing shit It's just a blank check The question marks on it The last one at least can you Obviously we know that it's a skid now
Starting point is 00:08:02 But was the Wizards April Fool's Day prank foul or funny It's funny It's a paper food. This man know he didn't make that shit. If he was in on it or not, you know he ain't had a chance of hell making that shot.
Starting point is 00:08:17 So. What if he did make it, though? That's the real question. I don't want to win my 10K. I'm gonna fucking just kidding. You know what I'm talking about? I've made that bitch now. Yeah, but no, it's a joke, man.
Starting point is 00:08:28 It is what it is. People over sensitive these days, man. Like, people overreact and They are very sensitive to everything. Do nothing, say nothing, can't be nowhere, can't go, like, listen, man, this, yeah. Yeah, now people... I'm glad I grew up in there I grew up in, but you had to have thick skin, man. People were not feeling the joke.
Starting point is 00:08:53 A lot of people responded, basically bullied the Wizards into releasing that stage. Yeah, that's all, yeah, it was like, no. They lost fans because of it. They didn't have many to begin with, like, to the old statement, shit, they, yeah. Did you see that whole, bro? Three seasons in a row, you don't lost 60 plus games. Bray ain't nothing to cheer for out there, bitch. They need some laughs.
Starting point is 00:09:15 They need some good, some good faith. They need, I'm saying? No. So April Foods, it's a joke. How much them tickets is, see? Man paid the tickets to go Cedar with it. $12. Yeah, $12 to $18?
Starting point is 00:09:29 That's shit. Yeah. Come on down, they call them from the 300s. Yeah, it's an out burger. I'd rather eat in and out than watch the Wizards for show. Yeah. It's a good combo back. So if you'd rather eat in and out, what if the Wizards are playing the lekers?
Starting point is 00:09:46 Did you watch that game? 60. It was adorable. Luca had 60. He didn't play that game. I thought he had 60. That was Miami at 6. I'm about to say, 83, 60.
Starting point is 00:09:59 Luke was suspended for the game against the Wizards this past week. He was waiting on that game. Everybody was waiting on them games. Get some Wizards, you can get 50 on them. I'm sure he was mad. You can't get your numbers on them. God, damn. Yeah, you can't be suspended for the Wizards game.
Starting point is 00:10:13 Yeah, that's bad business. Go for 84. I'm talking about it. Bring balance back to the points. All right, well, good April Fool's discussion. Let's get on to some actual real basketball. Spurs were back in action Wednesday on the road against the Warriors as Wendy continued his campaign for his first MVP with San Antonio looking for their 10th straight win.
Starting point is 00:10:33 Spurs entered the matchup with four straight. row wins by 25 plus points, which is the longest streak in NBA histories. The Warriors were short-handed to say the least missing nine rotation players in the game, including Chef Curry, and the alien took advantage to make Golden State look like some April Fool's as well. Let's take a look at the highlights, if we can, when we got to work early and often scoring 10 points in the first four minutes of game action. He put up 17 points, nine boards in the first quarter alone. Don't look at this line up.
Starting point is 00:11:03 Man, that's nasty. They had dudes shooting left-handed. It was all type of shit going on. Happened to the witts. Wrist injuries. You know, life to the wilet. For those that prayed on their downfall, your prayers have been answered. Alien finished the first half with 27 and 13 in just 17 minutes.
Starting point is 00:11:21 Wimby continued to cook the dubs in the second half while making history in the process. Wimmy put up 41 points, 18 rebounds, and three blocks. He was six for 22 from the field in 29 minutes. Wimby is the first player in Spurs history with back-to-back 40-point double-doubles. Oh, you see it. After coming through with 41, 16 boards and three blocks against the Bulls on Monday, San Antonio got their 10th straight win improving to a league best 26 and 2 since February 1st. And 15 and 0 in the last 15 games that Wimby's played in.
Starting point is 00:11:56 So after the game, Wimby pulled up the Sports Center with Scott Van Pelt. SVP asked Wimby how important it was to him to be recognized is the best player in the league, and he offered this response. I think that all the grades, you know, that are in the Hall of Fame or that are in our mind the best of all time, they have fought and grabbed everything they could grab early on in their career, you know. And if I want to make my spot among the grades, I got to try to not miss any occasion I have to put my name up there.
Starting point is 00:12:28 Begging again. The Lionman, Spurs are 15 and 0, last 15 games of Wimby's played in those 15 games, French Fidon averaging 28 points, 12 rebounds, nearly four blocks, league leading plus 269, all while playing less than 30 minutes per game. So Wimby missed out on adding some individual accolades to his resume last year when the season was prematurely ended by injury. It talked about how dealing with that injury changed his perspective on life and on his career. I just heard you say Wimby out here begging again with your thoughts on Wimby continuing
Starting point is 00:13:00 to let it be known that he wants to be the best player. the league? I think it's time to start letting this game do the talking, you know, just continue to, he's doing what he's doing, but at some point, you know, we get it, we get it, you know. It's time to just get ready for the playoffs, shut up, win, and then that'll do the talking for you. But what he's doing is, I'm shocked. I didn't know Tim Duncan never had a back-to-back 40-point game.
Starting point is 00:13:34 40-point double-double. Oh, double-double. Damn. First player, Spurs history. First player in Spurs history. That's dope. It's the only way to be the best Spurve. All righty.
Starting point is 00:13:49 Y'all want to give them everything else. Might as well. Are you doing? Yeah. Okay. The best spurs ever. I was good. Beg for it.
Starting point is 00:14:01 You did well? We practiced that. You did well. You didn't stutter or nothing. Keep begging. He was over there and she said, you gonna do it like this? No more begging. Playing against the West Coast Wizards. I ain't too proud to beg, Nick. The West Coast Wizard.
Starting point is 00:14:16 You ain't never heard the song, huh? It was number one in the country for a long time. I'm tired of begging. I ain't too proud to beg, no. Yeah. I'm proud of Wimby, shit. It takes a lot to get the ears of the people out there voting, you know, just like campaigning when you were a president, right?
Starting point is 00:14:38 At some point they have to vote. You gotta be out there, you gotta be out there in their ears, in their face. Chucking and jiving. You gotta be chucking and jiving. They gotta be, do bitt-d-d-bo-d-d-d-bo-d-d-d-d-d-d-do-do-do-do-do-do-do- Like mumba, you think he'll do that? No, he wouldn't do that. All right, then that's all I'm saying.
Starting point is 00:14:56 Not if he was French. No, he didn't do that. That's all I'm saying. No, he didn't do. Yeah. But he, you know, he did what he had to do. do. He did what he had to do, right? So he's doing what he has to do. And that's what I love about Wimby. Whatever it takes, let's go get it. Go get those voters, go tell them, hey, listen,
Starting point is 00:15:18 they ain't doing what I do. Go watch the film. Go do what they, go go see what they're doing, and go see what I'm doing. It's different. I'm the real Santa Claus. It's one thing to talk about it. Obviously, he's been campaigning, made his case for MVP recently. He was asked by SVP about this and his desire to be the best player in the world. But what he's doing right now with the Spurs Squad, the way they're surrogens 26 and 2, like we mentioned 15 and 0 in the last 15 games he's played. You said 15 and 0? In the last 15 games, Wimby's played.
Starting point is 00:15:48 Wimby did duck a Yolkich and they lost to the Nuggets. Some are reporting. He did not play in the game. 15 and O? Got the Yolkish flu. And lost. Damn, that's crazy. 26 and two, one of those losses.
Starting point is 00:15:59 Would you say that plus minus was? 269 in the 15th. 15, last 15 games of Wimby's playing. It's insane, ain't it? You missed that 16, you know. It might have, took a dip. That's all I'm saying. Woo.
Starting point is 00:16:13 But shift over to this. I came with your thoughts on Wemby continuing to let it be known that he wants to be the best player in the world. Yeah, no, if he's asked questions, I expect him to answer with his true feelings. That question had nothing to do with what the other campaign. was, yeah, he's talking about being great. And you have to start somewhere, right? And for the campaigning, right, I think it's more on the team.
Starting point is 00:16:49 The team should be doing it. The team should be the ones, commercials and different things like that. Yeah. So I think that falls on the team. But since I haven't seen anything, I think he feels that it's on him to campaign for himself and his game. His game has been speaking for itself.
Starting point is 00:17:15 He has been playing well all season and as of late. You know, they're going to be a force to be reckoned with for the foreseeable future. Young Corps. So, and he's leading that. So I'm excited to see where else it goes. what other accolades that he could put on his shelf other than defense's player the year because we know that's going to be a staple for him.
Starting point is 00:17:45 So you got to somebody's going to have to do something amazing to take that award away from him. I don't know what that's going to tell. But people don't seem to have voters fatigue with that though. Interesting. But they do with other things. But it's need there nor there. But yeah, no, man, he's not.
Starting point is 00:18:04 been doing the ass too. And like I said, I'm excited to see what else is in store for the young man moving forward. But 22 years old, I think, wise beyond his years, trained with Shalding monks, work with Akeem, KG, all the stuff he's been doing. Like we mentioned, had that blood clot last season that cost him a potential defensive player to year last year. I mean, he's good to see him displaying these leadership qualities at such a young age. Or just, Nick, are you starting to get tired of it. Already. Already.
Starting point is 00:18:40 Tired. Tired. He's going to be great. He's going to be great. I feel like we're trying to get everything to him too early. And it's a lot of him talking now. Like, doing all that, I love when he did the workout with Crawford, the monk thing. I loved all that. But now I feel like the media is baiting him.
Starting point is 00:19:04 baiting him into answering these type of questions about like the MVP race. Because he's young and already outspoken he talked about he going to change the all-star games. You know. But this type of stuff
Starting point is 00:19:21 you got a, you know. Come on, man. Who your favorite player? I can't wait for the next Ant Man commercials. I guarantee it it would be about him begging. Is that your favorite player? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:19:33 He ain't. He ain't what? He ain't begging. He didn't. No, he ain't back for no. Do you remember the starting five shit that was on Netflix? No. You didn't watch that shit, did you?
Starting point is 00:19:42 Swaggy, do you have a Netflix subscription? When he went to Obama? Huh? When he went where? When you, like, disrespect to Obama? No, no, no. No, no, I'm talking about the Olympics. You remember the Olympics?
Starting point is 00:19:53 Yeah. When he told everybody that was at the Olympics what the deal was? What do you say? I'm the best player in the world. That ain't begging. begging. Oh, it was campaign. It was campaign. I need to grab everything I can to be great. I'm going to reach for this MVP as hard as I can because if I don't get it, I'm not going to be great. So guess where aunt is? Where is aunt? Great. He's bottom five?
Starting point is 00:20:21 Bottom five? Yeah, bottom five. You're crazy. Guess what he didn't do? He didn't beg for it. You think he's bottom? He didn't bet. He's at the bottom five right now. Of the top five, he's Six, seven, eight, face. So, I mean, I feel like Aunt did what, aunt was the one who popped it off. Talking and speaking for yourself, he's been the guy since he came into the league, speaking it into existence.
Starting point is 00:20:52 I'm this guy, I do what I need to do. Ant Man was that guy. I think Victor got his confidence and understanding that I should do more what Ant's doing. So you're copycat. Yeah. Who's it working for
Starting point is 00:21:05 That's some French shit Who is it working for Who is it working for Who is it working for I did it better Can't nobody do it better than me Are you doing it better? Nobody
Starting point is 00:21:17 Does it better It's an L.A. song Yeah You don't even be knowing it Yeah You can be closer than close You can be closer than close You can be closer than close
Starting point is 00:21:32 And you still ain't got nothing on me. It's still going to be what it is. You've just, you got to accept it. A lot of niggas be hating because the niggins do be campaigning, you know what you got to, you know, the player there's going to holl at the girl. You're sitting back like, let her choose. I'm very shocked her choose. Let her choose.
Starting point is 00:21:49 I'm very sure. Let her choose. Let her choose. And then you go, you know, you go spitting the ear, you know, and then go spitting the ear instead of letting her choose. He's going to win. He got there first. He told her a bunch of shit.
Starting point is 00:22:01 I'm so shocked. Got to be one or the other. You're going to sit back and be the cool, or you're going to be the one to go go get it? Wimby don't play by these rules. French kitchens on French bitches. What's up? It means something to him.
Starting point is 00:22:14 Yeah. He needed. So, according to betting odds, SGA still the heavy favorite to win a second straight MVP. So Underdogs got their season MVP winner prediction market currently going on. So take a look at Underdog's MVP. Wimby's recent performances have only slightly closed the gap, but not enough to not make SGA clear favorite. So SGA currently 77% to get a second straight to repeat.
Starting point is 00:22:44 Wimby at 23. The Spurs do have two games against the Nuggets the season. They trail the Thunder by two games for first in the Western Conference. The Thunder have two games against the Lakers, which could shift the balance. So that game tonight? They have a game tonight against the Thunder. and one more before the season is. Whammy going to beg after it.
Starting point is 00:23:04 The Lakers win? The Lakers win. If Lakers win, Wemey going to be back in even more. The Lakers beat the thunder. But realistically, what's it going to take for Wimby to jump SGA
Starting point is 00:23:13 for MVP this season? Moving to the number one spot. The number one spot helped his argument. Because the media, the media has the vote. They move into the number one spot and Shay still playing the way he's playing.
Starting point is 00:23:26 I don't think it matters. I do. Because that's according to Nick, it's your team. Team success being number one. It's all I hear I'm saying, you're number one, but you're number one. Number one.
Starting point is 00:23:40 Number one. All right, let's get to number one. Two games behind. And let's have that motherfucking conversation. Two games behind. First have two games against the Nuggets left on their schedule. I'm just making sure. Clear it up.
Starting point is 00:23:52 Because you did, you've been saying number one. And I've been agreeing with you. Like, all right, you know what? We're number two. It's going to be tough. Okay, we get that number one spot. It's a different conversation. First two games left against the Nuggets,
Starting point is 00:24:04 we will see if Wimby embraces the challenge or playing Joker or tried to duck those again. He got two games against Nuggets? Two games left. He's going to play one-on. Thunder have two games against the Lakers left on their stage. He ain't going to be M-EV. He's going to play one-off.
Starting point is 00:24:15 Okay, let's say he outplay Joker. He's not. He's not. He can outplay 12. Let's see what he had last game. We don't care about the Jazz. 15, 17, 17, and 12. He can outplay that.
Starting point is 00:24:28 Who can out-play what? Wimby can outplay that. No, he can't. Yes, he can't. 15, 17 and 12? It's not nothing. Your man care about that stuff. What you mean?
Starting point is 00:24:36 It's against the jazz. Shouldn't it be 50, 17 and 12? No, because he doesn't care. No. He's not. He doesn't care about winning. It's not. Who care about winning?
Starting point is 00:24:46 Who care about winning? Who care about winning? Why would he want to go out there and? Why they ain't winning? Why they ain't. That's the jazz. That's the jazz. So he ain't got to score big against the jazz.
Starting point is 00:24:57 Oh, okay. He ain't got to score big. All right. They needed him to he would. They needed them to. They would. Yes, that's the beauty of them. What do he do?
Starting point is 00:25:05 He's averaging 28 on the years, so obviously he's doing something. He averaging more than your guy. Hey, what do he do? He averaging more than your guy. But he's still behind my guy. So it don't matter what you average it. You still four. You're still four.
Starting point is 00:25:20 Yeah, fucking round. You're still four. So with his 12 or six last night, Yokic, locked up his second straight season, averaging triple double. Only him and Russell Westbrook have done that at NBA history first center to do that. in NBA history. Very high efficiency. They got this new win.

This man is the most efficient. I didn't, I didn't let people do it to rust, and I didn't let people do it to him. Well, well.
Starting point is 00:27:29 I didn't let people do it to rust and I ain't going to let people do it to We're doing it today. No, you're not. I ain't going for it. We're doing it today. I ain't going for it. You can preach that shit to other people. Watch out.

Yeah, he begged for him. When? Did he beg for him? He didn't have to. He don't have to. He got three of them. Three. It should have. Listen, yo, should be five straight. Yo, should be five straight. Oh, this. Should be five straight. Oh, this Joker.
Starting point is 00:29:00 Nick. 40? Nick. Forty two. Nick, five straight. He's 31 and Wimby's 22. Should be five straight. Come on, man.
Starting point is 00:29:09 We ain't having this conversation. Should be five. Yeah, we're not because your guy don't have any. He won't have one. 22. No. 22 years old? And?
Starting point is 00:29:19 He will have one. He will have one. He will have five by 30. He will have five by 30. He will have five by 30. He will have five by 29. No, he won't. He'll have five by 29.
Starting point is 00:29:28 No, he won't. No. No, he won't. You're just dope a dog fool. Yeah, both of them. Both of them. Both of them, Nick. Huh?
Starting point is 00:29:38 Hey, 22? Hey, he's about to sneak. He's about the clean sweep. He's about the clean sweep. MVP, defensive player of the year. Nick, he might get most improved. Defensive player of the year. He might get most improved.
Starting point is 00:29:49 How can he get most improved when he put up the same, basically the same numbers of issues that he did last? A couple bit. It's a couple. It's a couple. It's a little bit more. That's what you call delusional. That's a little bit.
Starting point is 00:29:59 He improved the amount. the games he played. That is what you called. That's the only thing he did more. It wasn't for anything. It's the only thing he did better was play games. Myroup call he got that. That's why. He wants to be like Yonna. Ask you a question. Yeah. Yonnas got more.
Starting point is 00:30:13 Where is Winby in the MVP race right now? Not winning. MVP ladder has won me first, but the betting odds, bed and odds or what? I asked the specific question. I didn't ask about no bedties. But I said, where is winning the race? Number one. Today, okay, cool.
Starting point is 00:30:32 Number one. Who cares? Last week, this week, next week, every week. It's going to be a weekend, week out. What? When beyond it is a takeover. What? You know what it's called?
Starting point is 00:30:42 Defensively, yeah. It's an alien invasion. Okay, sounds good. It's an alien invasion. Huh? Did you see it on prime? NBA, NBA Prime. They did a whole alien invasion thing.
Starting point is 00:30:58 Watch for a quiet dude. Hey, Nick, Annie Duck. smoke. Watch what Kauai do to him. Kauai. Nick, ain't he ducked that smoke by the week ago.
Starting point is 00:31:06 Kauai? Yeah. Why ain't play that guy? Why ain't play that guy? He ain't going to play that guy. He don't put on no deodorant. That's why. I'm saying, why isn't,
Starting point is 00:31:13 play Nogahola? Put some deodorant on. Put some deodorant on. Yeah, he ain't going to be, though. We're cool. He got Kauai, then the Joker. What's y'all, man. Yeah, his days are done.
Starting point is 00:31:23 Smoking a cigarette in the back. Well, let's talk about. Well, let's talk about where we're going to. And in MVP's all of it go together right now. Going up there with. Do whatever he wants to, right? Me and proxious here. Do whatever you want to.
Starting point is 00:31:32 He got three MVP. Three MVP. Move around. No, you can't. And nobody moving around. It's my time now. It's my time. Why you ducking him?
Starting point is 00:31:39 Why you put Westbrook's number one point guard? My time. Why you ducking him? You put Westbrook as their number one point guard. Why you duck him then? My time? Four triple doubles. Hey, hey, it's my time.
Starting point is 00:31:48 Why do you ducking? You put Joker at. Right now? You put Russ number one. Right now? As far as centers? Yeah. What did you put joker?
Starting point is 00:31:57 Hey, Mr. Mottai, why you ducking last time y'all played? There was ducking going on. Yeah, there was definitely ducking going on. What would you put joker right now as all time centers? He had to be number one, statistically. Yeah. Yolke's statistic number one? Yeah, he had to be.
Starting point is 00:32:13 Okay. Number one of all time. Hands down. Statistically, there ain't no dude. That's not even that's a thing. This boy is fucking delusion. That's not a bad. Yo, something is wrong with him.
Starting point is 00:32:25 Larry Berg, God. No. You just asked me a question. I gave him an answer. You gave me an answer. You said five, man, right? It was my answer. Yeah, I said, just a five, right?
Starting point is 00:32:33 Center. Okay. So what was delusional about my answer? Because there's a guy that he ain't did, I'm saying, there's a guy named, started out at Lou Alcender and changed his name to Kareem Abduh, Jabar. That's better than Joker, statistically. I only got more points and all that. Five MVP's. Five MVP?
Starting point is 00:32:52 Five championships. Boy, we're not for the next topic, dog. Let's get back to the same. Tony O Spurs. Please. As a team. Wait a minute. So you just ask me the question to say that Joker's not number one?
Starting point is 00:33:05 I'm just asking where you have him when you say you got a number one. You said, where do I have him in comparison to Russell Westbrook being number one? I said, Russ is statistically the number one best point guard of all time. You said five centers. You asked me where do I have Joker at centers all time. Yeah. And I said statistically he's number one. So, but where do you have him there?
Starting point is 00:33:26 I just said. So you got him number one, or are you saying to you just hear what I just said? Statistically, I have him number one. Okay, so. So what's delusional about it? I know, he always do that all that. Next topic. What's delusional about it?
Starting point is 00:33:40 Well, what are the Spurs, right? Back to the Spurs. Yes. So we talked about Wimby as an individual. Now let's talk about the Spurs. Is it too straightforward? So much has been made about the Spurs being a young team with the bulk of their roster lacking any playoff experience.
Starting point is 00:33:54 So Scott Van Pelt asked Wemby about it, and he stood firm in his belief in himself and his team. Yeah, we don't have experience, right? Screw it. I mean, that's all we got. We're not going to play any different ways because it is this way. I mean, we're still going to play 100% and go to try to win this championship. Screw it.
Starting point is 00:34:16 So we've seen Wimby in the regular season, 29 minutes per game. We talked, Ken, yourself, about, now they up those minutes per game in the postseason. So a question for you, K. Mark, how much of a disadvantage is the Spurs' lack of experience in the playoffs and how much is having Wemby neutralized that disadvantage?
Starting point is 00:34:34 They play the same way every night, man. I don't think it deviates. So I don't think the experience is that much of a disadvantage for them. Because they've learned how to win during the regular season, right? We all know winning
Starting point is 00:34:51 and losing is a learned behavior. I would consider the Spurs a good team. Good teams find a way to win. The deeper series goals, you get better in it. Just after the first round goes six, seven game, then that's going to be beneficial to them. Or coming out and getting whoever you plan, whether you get the top spot or you,
Starting point is 00:35:18 in the second you're playing seven or let's get you come out there and get them out of the way, I'm saying, sweep them, that experience helps as well, right? So I don't, and this NBA, I don't look at it as a detriment because a lot of young guys
Starting point is 00:35:34 still in this league that they're going to be playing against as well. I think the team with the most experience is a, is part of the, with Bron and the Lakers. They've been not going to play them with Luca and Nicole have been around,
Starting point is 00:35:47 Jamal Murray, been around. Just either been in the second round, potentially, but lots of the left. Yeah, but getting there is we'll send them in the second round is helpful, right? Because you got out the first round, it depends on how it looked in the first round. Yeah, no, I'm excited to see how they look in the playoffs.
Starting point is 00:36:01 They have been dominated defensively because of Wimby. We all know his minutes will go up. So yeah, they're going to be better defensive in the playoffs, so good luck. Good luck. That's why I can let's shift over to you. Obviously, you've not been a big
Starting point is 00:36:17 advocate for the Spurs. You think the Clippers if they're able to secure that seven feet in the plan. You're going to see the night. You will see the Tonight. First Clippers do me tonight at the end of it, Don. You will see tonight what I'm talking about. Winby just right now, he's showing, like, the more he talk out, I'm not liking it.
Starting point is 00:36:39 The screw it, like, he said, screw it, like, I'm not liking this. I was becoming a big fan, and the more he's talking is just like, screw it, like, you're gonna try, screw it. You can't say stuff like that, man. You should want them to say. And just go back to the, you know. I don't know. We're just talking too much right now. It's like, like, fuck, shut up.
Starting point is 00:37:05 The Spurge are doing well. Right now it's giving me, it's giving me, it's giving me, you sound like a dude off-villy. You sound like that shit. I don't like that shit. I don't like that shit. We're good in the West vibe. It's giving me that type of vibe.
Starting point is 00:37:16 You didn't like that either? You see what happened. I'm asked, did you like it? You see what happened. That's what it's giving me. You didn't say that, though. You didn't say that when John was. popping off, he knew he would pop off on your ass.
Starting point is 00:37:27 You wasn't saying I ain't like that shit. You ain't saying none of that shit. He wasn't saying none of that. His daddy showed up. You was all nice and shit. I wasn't him. Yeah, he was. Yeah, you was.
Starting point is 00:37:38 Yeah, you was. All I'm saying, as you get close to the playoff, it's time to lock in, all that other stuff. Shit, they kick an ass. They're 26 and 2, so I said February 1st. He's talking too much. Like, people, that shit. Be good in the West and have a big.
Starting point is 00:37:54 effect? They not them. They ain't them. And he's not him. It's young. And he's not. But they play, they're good. No, because they don't know, listen, that's a good thing. They don't know no better, right?
Starting point is 00:38:08 When you don't know no better and you. Listen, they didn't know. They've been young all season, right? Name one young team like that that really done something though. Oklahoma City. They lost first round that year. They was first played. Went to the finals.
Starting point is 00:38:24 They lost first round, though, to Luca. Didn't they? They played Luca for... Oklahoma City Thunder, not to... Oh, yeah, the young boys. They was, yeah, that's the last team. It was young. They didn't give a fuck.
Starting point is 00:38:40 They just went out there. It was like, fuck it. We here might as well try to win it. So the current Thunder, two seasons ago, lost conference semis to the math to Lucas' crew. That's the game. That's what you're talking about. Then the next season, they won it. Won a championship.
Starting point is 00:38:54 Yeah, so it's a learned behavior. Oh, it's second round, my bad. It was second round, right? Second run. It's a learned behavior, man. I think they'd be right, man. Luke would be... Ain't man, I forgot.
Starting point is 00:39:05 Okay. Because they ain't built on hype. Yeah. Right, the Spurs ain't built on hype. It's not hype right now? No, they're going out kicking ass taking an aim. You mean hype. Do you see the record?
Starting point is 00:39:14 He's 15 and O in his last 15 games. Like I said we're going to see tonight. Yeah, I don't... I was wrong when they say... But tonight, you mean in between the Lakers and the Thunder? No, but... the clippers and the spurs. A lot of activity in the streets of Los Angeles tonight.
Starting point is 00:39:29 They're gonna smack the clippers. You gonna put something on it? You gonna put something on it? You gonna put something on it? You gonna have 40. Whimby gonna have 40? I put, what you wanna put on that? He had 40 on him.
Starting point is 00:39:40 On Brooke Lopez? They traded their best big. Zubach was the only chance they had. Zubach did solid against Wimbyme. And you can't expect Brooke to do anything with him. Claus gonna go ahead. Who? Like he did in the All-Star game.
Starting point is 00:39:55 Who? The claw. He's going to guard Castle with one of them other things. Yeah, he got his hands full on the perimeter. For sure. Can't guard both of them. All three of them. Can't guard Castle, Fox and Wimby.
Starting point is 00:40:09 Who's looking better right now? Who's looking better right now? What you mean? Then what? The Spurred. The Kauai or Wimby? Who's looking better right now? Let's be a little...
Starting point is 00:40:19 Who's looking better right now? Who's number two? Who's number one in the MVP votes? Ah, there you go again. Quire has been playing very well, we'll say. How much he averaged? This season? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:40:35 Quire's average. 27? 28, I think. It's closer to 20. 286, 4 assists, 50% from the field. Yeah, 29. Rounded up. Your man, average, what, 24?
Starting point is 00:40:47 50, 38, 90 shootings. Oh, 25. It went up yesterday because he had 40. Yeah, 40. He had. I would say that and been available. Yes. 60 games this season.
Starting point is 00:40:58 Spurred's fighting for that top spot. They're going to come out and play hard, bro. They're trying to catch in. They're trying to get 60 wins. I don't even think it's about the top spot. I think they're trying to get a 60 wins. I think it's both. Clippers are not.
Starting point is 00:41:10 Both are feasible. Both are feasible. And I think that they're trying to go do it. Like what? First round. Where clip was that eight? They're eight currently. But they could they could beat the son.
Starting point is 00:41:21 They could beat the son. No, I'm saying they could beat the son. The Sun's in front. Oh, they see them in the plan currently. And I'm pretty sure they would do that. But Clippers lost to the Blazers Tuesday. Blazers currently ninth. The Clippers lost to the who?
Starting point is 00:41:37 The Portland Trail Blazers, the half game behind the Clippers right now for the eighth spot. Oh, so they're all in the same boat? It's a lot of... The Portland Trailblazers. So they're in ninth, so... Clippers in eight, seven, eight, nine, all of the same? I'll feel some type of way of...
Starting point is 00:41:54 I'm a coach. We lose the fucking Clippers after they lost the Trailblazers. Damn, well, you gonna feel some second way? Nah, not today. Spurs, second night backtrack. Spurs do defeat the Clippers. Spurs are gonna lose two games in a row. They play Demmer after two.
Starting point is 00:42:12 It's a back-to-back. Remember Wimby was giving it all to the West Coast Wizards last night. Went out there, dropped 40 last night. Now you gotta come out here and play in LA. It'll be 3 40 balls in a row. So Spurs have the Clippers tonight, Thursday, and then they play the Nuggets on Saturday. Work is different from here in San Antonio.
Starting point is 00:42:31 Yeah, it's a lot different. That make you work harder. You got to put your hard hat on. Freshly his leg, not fresh now. No, he ain't fucking. He already played half the minutes. He played it. That's what I'm saying.
Starting point is 00:42:47 He got his work done in the first half. He didn't even have to play 27 and 13. Do he play back to back like that? Didn't he have 27 and 13? 27 to 13. 27 to 13. And he kept going to get 41 because, and it. Okay.
Starting point is 00:43:00 Because I ain't too proud to beg. Yeah, come camping. You say you hate about Shay, you lead a player, NYX still up 20 and shit. Look, I mean, it did have the feel of that looking at that. Thank you. It did not because they kept cutting the lead down. No, stop.
Starting point is 00:43:15 I was watching the game. The Warriors that nigger shouldn't left-handed because they're wrestling. They kept cutting into the lead. That's why he kept coming back in the game. It was like 12, 13. Then they would go up to like 18. and then they would come back down. So they kept with...
Starting point is 00:43:31 Wimby stayed on the bike. He was on the bike. Like, do I need to go back in? Do I need to come back in? That's your point, right? So Spurs have six games left. Wimby's at 61 games right now, so you need to play four of those six games.
Starting point is 00:43:41 Oh, you got to be eligible. They do have two games against him. I'm about to be first all team. That's crazy. They're going to be able to win. He's going to duck one of those Joker games. First games, Joker going to give them with 50 and 20 and 13. the second game he ain't going to win no smoke,
Starting point is 00:44:00 but he just. If I remember correctly, I think Joelle NB, Duked Joker and then won the MVP. Well, I mean, he hasn't played in Denver in, I think seven, eight seasons. I think it might be wise for him. If that's how you get it,
Starting point is 00:44:14 duck that nigga to get it. He can't. If that's what got to, he got to. If that's what got the other guy to shit. How many games we got left? Shit. The first of six games left,
Starting point is 00:44:22 Wimby's a 61 game. Oh, yeah. Played this year, so he needs four more to be eligible for postseason awards. All right, let's talk one more Wemby, but more a general situation going to league. So a lot of talk about the lack of defense in the NBA nowadays before it was worth the NBA, the current defensive player, the year frontrunner. Disagree.
Starting point is 00:44:41 So after the Spurs went over the bucks this weekend, Wemby was asked with something that people don't understand about playing defense in the NBA. This is a different way. We're having a whole segment of what he's saying. Yes. What the fuck going on? Put your seat belt on. Seat belt. What the fuck?
Starting point is 00:44:55 Are you good? It Spurs Thursday. Listen to you saying, are we there yet for 30 straight minutes? Are we there yet? Little Nick, sit your ass down and get your little Capri's son and be good. It's Spurs Day. Are we there yet? I ain't never heard of talking about the Spurs this much.
Starting point is 00:45:13 You heard us talk about the Lakers for three straight years. Lakers much more intriguing and intriguing as a team. Fuck, bro. Who's talking about Luca, Luca, Luca, Luca, Luca, Luke. Here's what Wimby had to say about the state of defense in the NBA. I guess before I got here it's a lot of talk
Starting point is 00:45:32 when before I was in the NBA like you know when you're in the NBA about like nobody defense anymore or like there's no defense in the NBA I heard that a lot before coming here but it's just not true like
Starting point is 00:45:47 players are just that good so it's and I was surprised by the dedication of like the whole staff when I got here because and I've heard that from other franchises. Frenchises that win, Frenchises that didn't win and we weren't winning a lot at the time. And it's the same. I mean, people are dedicated and people actually do guard in the NBA and do lots of scouting defense scouting reports.
Starting point is 00:46:19 Man, I mean, thought the U.S. was some shit. I thought it was sweetheart. Can we hear there's been, like I said, a lot of talk nowadays saying there's no defense in the NBA. You hear what you say that. You hear what they think about us
Starting point is 00:46:33 and that's what she... Putting a scouting report together and guys playing defense are two totally separate things. I can put a scouting report together and guys still are bad defenders. Right? Because the way that it's
Starting point is 00:46:53 has this no defensive thing has taken off like wildfire, I could see where he was coming from. And to get here and see that there's a difference that, you know, guys, some guys do defend. Some guys are better than advertised. Some teams are better than advertised. Yes. But it's the pace of the game. It's the three ball.
Starting point is 00:47:15 It's the amount of points that's being scored. It's the amount of 20, high 20 and low 30 points scores there are each year in the NBA that makes people say there's no defense. There are the superstars in this league that are being glorified that don't play defense. That's loud. And word travels, right? But to be in a locker room and to have someone put together a scouting report for the next opponent, especially you've got a good organization and a good staff that you are over-prepared for what the team is going to be.
Starting point is 00:47:57 to do defensively, right? I think that of the San Antonio Spurs is because the winning that they've had throughout history with Pop and the guys, Tim and those guys, they knew what it was to go out and scout and put together game plans in order to be successful.
Starting point is 00:48:19 I think that's transferred over to them, and that's what he's seen. So, yeah, no, it could definitely be a delusion if you're from afar that these guys don't defend or teams are not prepared. It could definitely be a delusion. But, yeah, no, I'm glad he's speaking up on it. Because of the narrative out there that he's the only one that plays defense, right? No, the team is prepared.
Starting point is 00:48:52 I think that when you really do look at that, I mean, this is what I love about the game is because you do have the energy, the effort, the scouting report, the attention to detail, the sense of urgency, all of these things play a part when you got a good coaching staff and a good organization that actually takes pride in being prepared for the game. So when you do have organizations that take pride, but the players just don't buy in, then you go out there and you're like, man, they're not executing the game plan. we got how we play defense on the side pick and roll how we're going to play it tonight on the top how we're going to play the cross screens at the bottom how we're going to do all this tagging and
Starting point is 00:49:35 2-9 and all of these different things are part of the terminology in the NBA so when you got teams that don't buy into that you see bad defense right but then you know that the coach is like JJ JJ jay knows the terminology he knows how to put guys in position but if those guys ain't executed and he looked bad. So when you look at an organization like Ms. Johnson, he's coming back from having a successful tier of Coach Popovich having a system
Starting point is 00:50:05 of this is how we've done it, this is how we prepared, this is how we were successful, this is what you need. When you take that and you go with it, the players come in knowing that this is the formula, so you don't go against the formula. You're not going to have players, we're like, we should do this, so we should do that.
Starting point is 00:50:21 So Wembe coming in and seeing it, it's like, this is dope. Everybody actually does play defense. Then you go to other places that are scouting for you, and you're seeing that your opportunities are limited based on how they've scouted you. They're taking this away from me.
Starting point is 00:50:38 They're taking this away from me. Damn, they actually play out. You're playing pretty good defense tonight. But then you got your other teams, like the Wizards. You know, I don't think they played good in that BAM 83. I don't think they had a scout report prepared, right? Or they might have, but they just didn't execute it. I'm saying?
Starting point is 00:50:58 So I think Wemby's definitely spot on with there is a system. And I think the coaches, if the coaches don't reiterate that system and the players don't execute that system, you will look like a trash-ass team. But then you got the teams that go out there and they execute, you know, reminences of Mike Malone. He had a system. He was executing defensive principles
Starting point is 00:51:18 where you didn't need no anchor defensively to actually provide a defensive type of team. You got guys in position to do certain things and you do them, we'll get stops. And I think that's, that goes a long way with good coaching. It goes a long way with players who buy into the system. And I think Wambi's one of those players. That's an example of buying into it. So is the defense bad or is the offense just that good?
Starting point is 00:51:44 I think the offense. Offensively seems like the league has evolved tremendously. Yeah, it's just that good for me. I think over the years, each generation, people were still scoring 30s and 40s and had 81. So it's hard to say one generation is better than the next at defense. I think everything gets better, and you still going to have them ass teams. Even back when y'all was playing, when I was playing, you had ass teams. Wizards always been one of them ass teams.
Starting point is 00:52:18 You've got the Charlotte Hornies that always been, I mean the Bobcats and shit like that. You're always going to have them bad teams. And you're going to have them teams that know what they're doing for real. I mean organizations. Like coming when I once I left the Wizards in LA, coming to the Lakers and all that, seeing how they prepare, how just a different feel. You get the environment, you eat different. They give you all this.
Starting point is 00:52:49 What was the difference between Wizards, Lakers, and Warriors? Wizards, well, first off, they never, they didn't feed us. They didn't, they didn't, breakfast, no dinner, no, nothing like that. On your own. On your own. Shit, the Nuggets was like that forever. No, no training table, no nothing. No, not to we, shit, boy.
Starting point is 00:53:12 Yeah, so. We traded for, after we trade the Mello? They traded Mello? Now we, after they traded Mello, Al Harrington came, I was like, we got rid of that dump shoot around one day. I always said, I asked what the food was.
Starting point is 00:53:27 Shit, shit, we're gone with Mello. Niggas was like, shit, where the fool is at? Lidget, like, what food? You're on your own. I said, my food in my room waiting on me. I got the person called in my food. What was the difference in L.A.? With, I mean, the Warriors in L.A.
Starting point is 00:53:45 and I would say the clippers was kind of like that they fed us before after practice it was just different than everything scouts training
Starting point is 00:53:59 the weight room everything was just different okay okay so the organization with Philly L.A. All right so would you think y'all was tanking or was y'all just bad? We were just bad
Starting point is 00:54:11 okay so that L.A. team and then compared to the Warriors You go into that situation. What was the scout difference? No, better players. But coaching was similar. But Dan Tony, you know, practices 40 minutes. You start off going over to scout the plays
Starting point is 00:54:34 and then get what you need. And Steve Kerr was similar to that. Sometimes he just... They were with the same shit. They were part of the finesse. Yeah. So they was like on the same. stuff and, you know, the scout 9 a.m. on game days and shooting rounds and all that.
Starting point is 00:54:52 But they had like, you have to check the box when you do your weights. You got to make sure you get your weight room in, you got to make sure you get your shots up and all that. So, that type of stuff I like, they held you accountable. Like, if they was going to be that light on you, they made sure that you got your work in, for sure. And it's days, they told you, you Don't come in the gym. Stuff like that. Like Byron Scott, back-to-back, lose. He's running 17s and Indian runs.
Starting point is 00:55:26 Like, what the fuck the ethic? Was this, in the end of the season. And towards this month, March. Was this scout different, though? Like I think for the fans, we don't really dig deep into the scout. Philly, they practiced for Silly. Like I said, was in like a 24-hour. Yeah, I remember.
Starting point is 00:55:43 Yeah, we used to throw it over there, yeah, I remember. People coming in just watching you Blocking them next to the new strangers and shit, like Who could focus like that? It's in the hood now. It's like, Trit and some shit like that now. It's like...
Starting point is 00:55:57 Fine City came. Very well much can be, but they... There's shit. Ain't no breakfast there, no nothing. You come in. I guess we got... It's all different, man. Preparation standpoint.
Starting point is 00:56:10 It's all different, man. All these teams are different, right? How was yours as far as? as from New Jersey, y'all go to two finals, Scouting. Lawrence Frank. Lawrence Frank, different, right? Was he more attention to detail than George was?
Starting point is 00:56:22 Everybody. Ain't too many people on this planet. More attention, detail-oriented than Lawrence Frank when they come to the scouting report and being prepared, bro. We're here right now with the Clippers? In the front office with the Clippers. No, before, he didn't, like, dude didn't sleep, bro. We're coming there, joint the next morning.
Starting point is 00:56:42 Man, the playoffs here is game and all that. He's been chewing on the pen. He got blue ink all over his mouth and shit. Ain't been to sleep eyes, bloodshot red. Like he'd been, but we was prepared. Right. Like, they wasn't a set that nobody ran them. That's during that stretch that we didn't know wasn't prepared for.
Starting point is 00:57:02 And that's all you need with somebody like, you got me and J. Kid out there, bro. Yeah, and everybody locked in on what's that. And you got this mad genius over here? Also, do you think it's more about like the players too getting along and liking each other? I don't think that's a plea. I don't think that's a do.
Starting point is 00:57:16 You ain't got to like each other. Well, I don't think it's about liking. But more like respecting your savvy. I know he knows he's talking about. He ain't got to like you, but he's right. I know he right. When it's time to go win, even if he's right, man. Yeah, when it's time to go for Pete and win,
Starting point is 00:57:36 all that shit go out the window. Yeah, yeah. Because when he calls screen, I got to be, You scream right screen left. You better. It ain't like, you scream. Oh, we got an issue.
Starting point is 00:57:46 You want to prove you wrong doing the thing. Right, right. Don't do the screen. Oh, we got a whole issue. Yeah, that's the real issue. We got a whole issue. Well, motherfucker don't call the screen. I get hit with the screen.
Starting point is 00:57:55 You know what I'm saying? The situation we had with on. Yeah. Like that. I call the screen, you want to do what you want to do. And then come try to tell me my job on the bed. That's why I turn people lose. That don't work, dog.
Starting point is 00:58:08 And I'm going to lose it. And you, you, you, you're going to lose it. And you. being an anchor of the defense, you talk about Scotland report. But you want to prove him wrong. Right. But he has, like, as a vet, you're looking at what the coach is saying in the scotter report, right?
Starting point is 00:58:24 Kenyon has the seniority to go out on the floor and change somewhat of what the scotland report is based on what he said. Oh, how are we playing to play? Yeah. So he could see some shit. He could be like, all right, this is what they've been doing the last two times. I know we're downing it. But let's jump this.
Starting point is 00:58:39 We're going to jump this motherfucker this one time. Right. But what you're saying is you got to have... No, I'm right. Right. Compared to him. But Draymond would do it and stuff for listening. Right. And that's what I'm saying.
Starting point is 00:58:49 We would have to be on the accord. We ain't got to like each other, but I'm listening to Kenyon say, hey, we're about to jump this motherfucker right here. And we're going to go to the bench together. The coach's going to be like, what y'all jumped that for? He was like, Kenyon going to be like, nah, I've seen something. It's a real, real life situation. We're playing the Lakers, though. Playing Kobe and he's doing his one thing.
Starting point is 00:59:09 He's playing one-on-one. And it's... In the time, he's... out, we break, before we step on, I'll bring everybody in. Like, hey, come here, hey, when he touch it, I'm going to run at him so y'all get ready to rotate. Pre-rotate, right? Right.
Starting point is 00:59:24 I ain't told the coach and staff this, nothing. He ain't made no adjustments in the time out. I'm like, we get sick of this. We get sick of it. We got to do some. I got five straight jumpers, digger. Now he gets the ball, I'm going to run out. The Wizards don't do that.
Starting point is 00:59:39 I don't feel like. And I think that's what he's talking about as far as everybody being. good enough, but then there's the great teams that do this, that got a guy. And I don't think the league has guys like that. Like DeAndre Jordan, I think, would do some shit like that go out there and tell you, we're going to do this
Starting point is 00:59:54 like this now. There'll be things like I did on the, like, so we went a lot of, there was a lot of cross picks and stuff when we came in, right? I tried to make y'all job easy as I could, right? You don't have to worry about me and my man. Yeah. Right? Because, you know, it's that
Starting point is 01:00:10 that old sin, bump, I need you got to like, no. I'm sticking to my man. Don't worry about me, right? I mean, you said, worry about your man, right? Last play, when we came back from Memphis when you had to go out of Rudy.
Starting point is 01:00:23 Rudy, listen. Don't worry, but I don't help. I got to knock. We just, because the way I go across screens, right, the way I go across screens, so you don't have to bump. So you don't have to worry about the bump. You can stare at your man and trail them out because the play normally, it's going to be a cross screen to a double screen.
Starting point is 01:00:39 Yep. I don't want you to have to be late. Right. So you just stick to your man. You avoid to get screen. I turn my back to the screen. Yep. Right.
Starting point is 01:00:47 Whatever way he go high, I go high with him. He go low, I go low with him. Out him over. Right? So I eliminate that. Yeah. There was scouting, everybody had the way they guard the screens and all that, and I had my way.
Starting point is 01:00:57 This is real shit. And the scouting put them seven years in Denver, right? Ney, Marcos, Reggie, Eddie, all the beings we had, they guarded the traditional way of guarding the... Meet them on the other side. Not me. Throwing it over the top.
Starting point is 01:01:14 Yeah, they do all that. You get detached. They throw it over the top. They hit you with a good screen. He popped to the air. Like, we ain't doing none of that. I'm eliminating all of that so you can stay. And that's the progression of the defense, right?
Starting point is 01:01:28 When you got guys like that mixed with good scout. Man. Oh, man. It's tough as an offensive player? Yeah. It's very tough because you see the shit that he out there doing, especially if you're talking. If you're talking on defense, the offense of the guy is so frustrating because I'm not looking at the guy in front of me.
Starting point is 01:01:47 I'm looking at the anchor and who the fuck I got to see when I get past this dude. So if I'm in my offense and I see him and I'm like, I ain't thinking of him, but I see this nigga, Kenyon 2-9 and across the side. Then I see somebody at the nail over here and then they're talking and they're moving. It's like, oh, yeah, I got to sue before he get here. I got to figure out. And then it's say pick and row. Say we're in the side picking row and he in it. it was like him
Starting point is 01:02:11 KG, Varegiao, certain guys that will jump out there and steal the ball from you and it's like you got to protect those shit with them. He might blitz you he very rarely is going to be sitting back in the motherfucking drop because that wasn't
Starting point is 01:02:26 yeah unless you couldn't shoot these niggins don't get sped up they don't move they take loopin they do not because they don't draw they're not uncomfortable so is it better offense that's what I'm saying
Starting point is 01:02:38 Dudes are really good offensively. I think they cool, but they don't play the deed that we was playing. Because if we, the defense we play, that's what really aggravates me. I'm watching. I'm like, there's too much drop. There's not enough big stepping up and actually making them turn the corner. Y'all watch these games. What do they actually take away from guys, Nick?
Starting point is 01:03:00 What do they take away? I feel like it's hard to take away something when you have four shooters out there. No, I'm saying. But for the main guy, right? If you trap me, I throw it to the corner. But for the main guy, right? Yeah. What do they take away from Luca?
Starting point is 01:03:15 Okay. Ain't too many bigs. That's another thing. That's going to do. That's going to be. This is the thing. If you were playing us, right? They knew this up with that.
Starting point is 01:03:25 You knew what it was going to be, right? We're going to be up on their screen. We're going to make you get off the ball. You're good. You're going to score your points. Good individually, yes. But. Late shot, clock.
Starting point is 01:03:36 You're going to have to come back. You get it. Y'all was a bigger. Like, you're going to have to come back and get it. Guys, I ain't going to say we shut guys out. I'm not saying that. Guys were really good when we played. You can't name five bigs that would match up with y'all besides Joker right now.
Starting point is 01:03:49 But they was agile though. They wasn't just big big cinder block feet. I know. They could move their feet. It was a power for and it was a sinner you had. Yeah. Yeah. Me and MC was holding that shit down.
Starting point is 01:04:01 That's all I'm saying. Then me and A&A for a while. Yeah, both blocks too. It's like, hey, wherever you go, man. Yeah. It's like... It's the scheme, though. But you got to get...
Starting point is 01:04:11 The scheme, you got to have good individual defenders, guys that don't get straight line, right? That buy in to... Right? The buy-in to it all. And then when you have an anchor back there with guys, they really have to pay attention to where Wembe is. Right?
Starting point is 01:04:28 You really have to. Yeah. And you got... It's interchangeable positions on the perimeter as far as defending guys, you're not afraid to put Fox on Jason Tatum, right? Yeah. Because of how the game is playing. Before, you would be terrified to put fucking Fox on Jason Taylor.
Starting point is 01:04:49 Because he's going to take to the boat. We're going to take him straight down that motherfucking' ball. And your point guard are going to say go down there. Is it a different fear nowadays with the guys like Yokers, guys like Wimby, guys like Embed that can stretch the floor so much that they don't even have to worry about what? So you want them at, though? Yeah. Like, do it's the lower percent. in his shot.
Starting point is 01:05:07 No, even though Joker shooting 39 from 3 and B shoot it the way he does and Wimper shoot. Listen, they are doing the defense of fucking
Starting point is 01:05:16 when you're shooting 70% at the river. Are you sitting back on that when Joker at the 3-4 in line like that? Are you playing up? That's the thing.
Starting point is 01:05:23 You got to play neutral though. No, you got to pay him honest because he's such a great passer right? Yeah, you got to pay money. Because he's looking here out of that motherfucker passing that bitch.
Starting point is 01:05:29 You got to put ball pressure and B not so much. Yeah, right? He's not passing it like that. Pump fake? Yeah. Because that pump fake. You don't know whether it's a shot or a...
Starting point is 01:05:38 So him, you gotta... The way I would guard him, I'm playing him honest no matter what, right? But if he's at the perimeter, he's doing me a favor. Yeah. Right? I don't have to wrestle with him. And you can move your feet with him and you can move... He don't have any advantages on the perimeter against me.
Starting point is 01:05:58 Yeah. On the block, he's 280. He would want to block out. Hey, he's 280. Yeah. He put all that way. This is $2.30 at the time. Hey, he got me about 50, 60 pounds,
Starting point is 01:06:10 and he is doing me a favor. I think he was passing me up. I think he would more want to pass from the post than be on the perimeter. I don't think he, even though he would probably try to back now, I still think your post defense would force him to be a pass. Yeah, I will, because you're going to be a pastor. You know what I'm saying?
Starting point is 01:06:29 So, but I'm looking at how the guards, the guards actually guard the guards way out on the press. from Remmerer more than we used to like when you got the picking rose are at half court and they're switching that bullshit. It ain't even a real it's a smoke screen just to get a mismatch
Starting point is 01:06:48 and I'm like why are you guarding him way out here and he's not trying to even shoot the ball and you only got three guys that can actually shoot from way out there if you let them everybody else you're going under that shit. Yeah. Three now so you're playing up. What are our
Starting point is 01:07:04 percentage? We plan our percentage. We got 32 That's all, but that's all the game and change. We couldn't shoot that meaning. We couldn't shoot those single back three. Like, no. But it would have to be a good thing. You did. You would have to be.
Starting point is 01:07:15 I did. I did. But you were capable of a shooter, though. You were capable. So your scouting report was, hey, watch out for Nick on this pick and roll. Don't go under. He will shoot that motherfucker, right? There was certain people.
Starting point is 01:07:28 But for the most part, we going under this shit. Because offense for us was time and a shot selection. So if you shot that bullshit shot in the first five seconds of the game We baiting you into that Go under that shit make him shoot that Because that ain't their game plan That ain't what they're trying to get the dog You do it this man
Starting point is 01:07:47 You do that shit, bro, nigga looking at everybody looking like, bro, what you doing? Let's fuck the hell on the day Okay Oh we're breaking the play today Okay, that's how we plan That's what we're breaking the play We're breaking the play
Starting point is 01:08:01 We're waiting for one of y'all to fuck up That's what we doing? Okay. We're not running it all the way too today. Okay. But just back to win, I'm happy to see him being, because people are looking at him as the elite defender in NBA, right?
Starting point is 01:08:17 For him to be speaking up for the entire league in that manner. Yeah, I like that. His team, that's, that's big for the league in itself. For sure. He's saying the right thing. Yeah, because he's going to win the award this year. That was the first time he said the right thing. He's going to win the award this year and for him to be speaking up in that manner.
Starting point is 01:08:33 But the fact, you see what they think about us, though. Come in here. No, because you're hearing it constantly. Listen, if you're watching the game, right, from abroad, you are hearing this shit constantly, right? Lack of defense, lack of defense, they don't play no defense, they don't play no defense, lack of defense. He's thinking, listen, I'm going to go over this bitch and average, 40.
Starting point is 01:08:53 Yeah. He's like, no, they actually scouting me, right? They actually forcing me into these shots, right? That's why I got to see these monks, man. Yeah, that's like who said Which one of them guys said This guy's more athletic than he thought Zachary
Starting point is 01:09:09 Zachary Eichoshae, right? Well, he's from him. He's like, shit, I'm athletic as they come. I was the most athletic. A more athletic guy in the cold He'd come over here, he's like Yeah, there's Anthony Edwards. Yeah, absolutely.
Starting point is 01:09:20 John Moran. There's guys like that. Zion Williamson. My teammate Jail and John like that guy was regular. Did you see Zion? What Zion was doing?
Starting point is 01:09:29 Like, he don't, he ain't seeing that on a regular basis. Nah. Right? So it's that, man. But league is in good hands, man, moving forward with these guys. I think they're doing a good job of competing and selling the product. But I think they're more accepted to some people not playing defense, though.
Starting point is 01:09:52 Yeah. Yeah. Because, yeah, of course. Well, they know what they're not accepting of them. They're blasting his ass out. They're blasting them out. But what's more important to our culture? is scoring.
Starting point is 01:10:02 Scoring is more important right. If he wasn't leading the league in scoring, if he wasn't leading the league is scoring, it'll be a bigger deal than it is. But that's something with all of them, though. I think everybody in the top five outside of Wemby, they're not known as defenders.
Starting point is 01:10:16 They're not getting buckets. And we look at the top last 10 years. You got James, got D, KD, all these guys ain't like all defensive players, so you don't really harp on their defense. But you see discrepancies in certain times.
Starting point is 01:10:30 He's like, damn, James, you ain't going to play a defense right here? Damn, Brian, you ain't going to get back on defense right here? Luca, what are we doing? But you expecting that from your top player. So getting a little bit of pushback is not a bad thing, but. But then there's guys who understand when to give that extra, right? I think Bronn fits that. He understands.
Starting point is 01:10:55 Oh, he does. He does. When April, whatever, when first time 18, it's different. April 18th come. That motherfucking defensive intents and that motherfucking defensive intent is the motherfucking go up. Him in the passing lanes is... Yeah, like, his defense intent is going to winning time. You have guys like that, right?
Starting point is 01:11:13 That you know when it's winning time, they're going to be better at that. Rondo, Jimmy Butler. Yeah, Jimmy. Jimmy, yep, yeah, certain guys like that. Let's shift back to the offensive side and keep this thing moving. Talk about the Celtics and what they've got going on with their dynamic duo. So Celts were back in action Wednesday on the road against the heat. looking to bounce back from their loss to the Hawks on Monday.
Starting point is 01:11:34 Jason Tatum back in the lineup for the first time since winning Eastern Conference Player of the Week after missing Monday's game for injury management. Celtics dynamic duo took their talents to South Beach and continued to put the East on notice that they want to bring the crown back to Bean Town. Let's take a look at the highlights if we can. Celtics' offense cooking from the jump in this one,
Starting point is 01:11:53 putting up a franchise record 53 points in the first quarter. So in the first frame, Boston was 20 or 28 from the field, 11 for 15 from 3. Jalen Brown putting up 20 points in that first quarter. Sam Hauser has 17 in that quarter, five for five from deep. So Jaylen Brown came through with his seventh 40-point game this season, at 43 points on 17 to 29 shooting along with seven assists.
Starting point is 01:12:17 He's not number two. Meanwhile, Jason Tatum messed around and dropped his fifth career triple double. His first this season, Tatum had 25 points, 18 rebounds, 11 assists. The 18 boards just one shy. of tying his career high, Celtics had 147 points in this game. That's gonna lose this year. Hell no.
Starting point is 01:12:39 Maw fucking humidity down the boy is marvelous. They got, bam was like 43, it ain't 84 though. That's how I've been playing lately. Y'all remember when I dropped 83 on the Wizards? Man. I ever tell you about that? I ain't got to play no more this year. That's nice right there.
Starting point is 01:12:57 That's really, really. doing this thing, seventh 40-point game in season once in the Celtics are five and two when Jalen Brown goes over 40. Tatum. The niggas are really 2K balling. No, 2K balling right now. All the moves. Every move.
Starting point is 01:13:11 Every move is something. Nice. Real nice. You work on your shit against bad teams. Racks. Let me go to this thing. Let me go to my bag. They don't got no answer for this.
Starting point is 01:13:23 So Celtics had 147 points in the game, one shy of their season high. Damn. Boston approved the 10 and 2 with Tatum in the lineup this season. Keep a two and a half game lead over the Knicks for the second spot in the East. So after the game, hold on. So first question, looking at Tatum and Brown, what they're doing now. Tam appears to get better every, every game. Are the Jay's the most dangerous duo in the league right now?
Starting point is 01:13:52 I told you all. Finals. They're going to the finals. We are going to the violence. They ain't even got Vouch back yet. Man. That's insane. We're going to the...
Starting point is 01:14:07 Somebody asked me yesterday. Somebody asked me why I got. I was like, oh... Hard not to. Man. Hard not to. You see that? Without Voucho, though.
Starting point is 01:14:18 Like, Vouchovitch is a fucking monster. To me, like, I think he's one of the most underrated bids. Underrated bigs, for sure. And to know that he can be down there getting rebounds. Who would that? pace, that's, yeah, because it's, it's like prozingis. He's fine.
Starting point is 01:14:32 He can just trail and. And you can play throwing. Yeah. That's a thing in a half court. Yeah. Half court, you can play through them. You can play through them. You can play splits.
Starting point is 01:14:41 You can do a lot of different shit with him, dog. Trail big, shoot the three. Man. Triple handoff, you got what you're going to switch it. What you're going to do? You're going to walk whoever down. You're going to go under this with J.B. and J. Good luck.
Starting point is 01:14:53 It's not. Hey, that's not. That's nice. Fritz is shooting that bitch, Houser shooting that bitch the way they shooting. Derek White out this bitch playing the way. Derek White, stepping up fine. The bids, they got this. Hey, no, they're a problem.
Starting point is 01:15:05 They're tough. They got this. Spurs up. Getting this boy back, man, and you 10 and two with him? Yeah, that's scary. I mean, just got Eastern Commerce player a week. It's scary. It's scary for these.
Starting point is 01:15:17 Put up a triple double. But that's the feeling they had before he got hurt. I think that's the feeling they had. That's the feeling they have. Yeah. Game before he played with what he looked right now? 32, 33 minutes of the night. Like somebody, like, bro, he ramping up.
Starting point is 01:15:31 He ramping up. Yeah, that was the best thing for, but them to get Jaylon Brown this type of confidence too. Yeah. He needed it. He needed it. He needed it. But he's been training well.
Starting point is 01:15:44 He been out there training with Dash, and they've been getting to them spots. When you get constantly that repetition of getting to these spots, and then you go out there in the field and you see it work. And you're like, oh, they can't fuck with this. And I ain't even get to the Frito line like that. I ain't cade uncertain about his future or whether how he going to be
Starting point is 01:16:04 and what he going to be able to do when he come back. The rest of it, and the Knicks should be ashamed of themselves. They should be. The Knicks should be fucking shaming himself, dog. Every since the cup. Yeah. Every since the cup. They've been trashed after all that.
Starting point is 01:16:17 They should be ashamed of himself. So, Kenney, to your point, Tato's played 35 plus minutes in three of the last four games. That's scary, man. Played over 30 minutes. His confidence going to just keep nine straight games. And you got them both playing like that. Wait until he started filling them hops coming back. He started dunking that shit, all that shit, left-hand shit he was doing just now.
Starting point is 01:16:37 Them dunked. 18 rebranding the ball at the hot-ton? Triple-double? No, it's scary for the East. Yeah. Yeah, it is scary for the East. And I would, I put my money on them to come out east. For sure right now.
Starting point is 01:16:51 In the heat, obviously, I'm starting to play for every 10th in the East right now. but there's a bunch of teams clumped up. Yeah, they get smack like that. Yeah. You're playing for something? You still, you're still trying to get something. You get smack, give up a hundred and fifty at home, and you plan for something? 53 in the first quarter.
Starting point is 01:17:04 That's insane. 147 points in the game. I just got what you said. He had 18 rebounds. He was going for the 20. He was going for the 20. So, they're telling like shit, all right, Brown. I'm going to do everything else.
Starting point is 01:17:16 Yeah, he playing 30 something. That's a good team, though. That's what I'm talking about. That's what I was saying for him when he came. Yes. He accepted. I'm going to do all the other. Good teams too, though.
Starting point is 01:17:25 But remember, the rolls were reversed. Yeah. I felt like Jason Tatum was how Brown is playing. Let me go get my 39, 43. Oh, yeah. And Janet Brown was like, go ahead. He was always a good rebound, though. He was always getting nine or ten boards.
Starting point is 01:17:39 But I think now he's like, I can actually go and pass that bitch around now and get my 22, 25, 12. That's a different. Before it was relying when the ball is late shot clocked this day, all the pressure was on him. Yeah. Right. The ball, everybody trying to find JT.
Starting point is 01:17:58 Right. Now, you got Jalen where you, it's a two-headed monster out there in that situation. Man. He don't have to chase down the ball to go get in the late. Right. Now you got another boy who's confidence. Jay and Brown was already a killer. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:18:13 Right. Like, you get his killer confidence. Like, where, like, yeah, it's. And not saying that his confidence had ever wavered. he always believed in himself but to be the number one and to be holding the fort down in that regard man
Starting point is 01:18:31 and shine the light on them and be like yeah we're watching you show out mangan show out yeah I love that shit that shit's fine and we talked about this little yesterday I Swaggy but since Brown had that eight point game when he got booted early
Starting point is 01:18:44 I told you and the nine games since then he's averaging 32.6 rebounds six assists so it's not like having Tatum back Slow them down. It's only elevated his game. Yeah, now he's not facing double teams.
Starting point is 01:18:58 Listen, just imagine. I can't get the button. He was doing all of that. He was doing all of that. He was doing his number's going to have to face that. Now he's going to have to face that. Now you've got to get one-on-one now. More up from his stats.
Starting point is 01:19:09 Is it more up from his stats? It would be more up from his stats right now. Instead of 32, it would be 34. So the same thing that gave them to see him before. Just press the button for. Like people were saying it's easy for number. Right about this. It's easier for Jalen Brown to get off because Jason Taiton playing against two.
Starting point is 01:19:25 That was people were saying before, right? It's easy for Jalen Brown to get off because Jason Tatum faces all the double team. Yep. Jalen Brown has been going through that all season, facing double team just that and the third, right? So now he gets to play one-on-one. Now you cannot double him now because you've got that killer out there back. Man. Pick your poison.
Starting point is 01:19:44 Would you say those two? Obviously, there's a lot of dangerous duos across the league. Yeah. Not dimension, but those two are what they're playing right now. Better than them too? Can you name one? Name one. Who, I can name one.
Starting point is 01:20:00 Castle, Winby. I didn't say better. I didn't say better. You know where I was going on. I'm saying better than that. I ain't saying better. Jamal and Joker. Winby and Castle.
Starting point is 01:20:11 For sure. I give it to him. He deserved. He's been deserved an all-star. Luca, AR, Luca, or. That's nowhere in that. Second team all NBA this year. Who?
Starting point is 01:20:18 Jamal Murray. No. Yes. Third. Second. Third. Who else playing better? Besides the, the, the,
Starting point is 01:20:24 That's going to be on first team. He's 26, 7, and... Brown. First team. First team all-N-BA. You got Tucker first team. First team. All-N-B-A.
Starting point is 01:20:33 Maxie, not... He ain't qualified. You got Shea. Shee first team. You got Wimby going to be on there. First team. That's three. Luca.
Starting point is 01:20:41 Kaye. Yeah, Kauai. Second team. Tyrese Maxie average. 29, 7 and 4. Second team. Brunson. Thurston, 13.
Starting point is 01:20:50 Brunson, yeah, it's a little. 13. Donovan Mitchell. Second or 13. second. Jamal Murray, second or third team all NBA. Jalen Durden? Yeah.
Starting point is 01:20:58 Second or 13th team all NBA. They're going to be. Jalen Johnson? You got to be there. A lot of names, y'all. A lot of guys got good stats. Jamal Murray will be second or third team all NBA this year. Yeah, I agree.
Starting point is 01:21:12 It's about that time for him. This is, yeah. He got to make his first third. If Kate don't qualify, then you got that. If I'm like, Kauai, and Nicola can only miss one more game. Kawai, you got to make a thing. No, Kauai definitely going to make. Second or second.
Starting point is 01:21:27 Second or third. But what Jamal Murray is doing, when Nicola was out, don't forget, Nicole had missed time. You got Jalen Johnson, the average of 23, 10, and 8 right now. The Hawks climbing up to East think 15 and 2 in their last 17 games. The Boston boys are the fifth right now, Ken. But then, you got guys just ahead of him. For sure. It's tough.
Starting point is 01:21:52 It's tough to. No, but I mean, I can't. You got to give it to them. You got to. Joker, Joker, you got to give it to them. Man, shut me, stop. As far as a duo? Duo?
Starting point is 01:22:02 Yeah. Duo? I am. Duo? Duo? Yeah. Duo? Yeah.
Starting point is 01:22:08 Duo? Like, one two-punt? There's no duo even coming close to Janet Brown and Jason Taylor. One two-fund. Did you see that? Yeah. Do anything look better than that? Look, them niggas is like stocked them alone out there, bro.
Starting point is 01:22:20 Them two over there, they stocked them alone, bro. He had 37 Last night They played on the same thing Yes That's a long man If it was a film We ain't
Starting point is 01:22:30 We ain't never seen that before You know what I'm saying We see he's talking to them alone That's like Where Jason Tatum is now Coming back Like before I don't think it was a question Like Vincent Timack
Starting point is 01:22:41 Vincent Timak in Toronto Yeah that was Yeah Got big dog And Ray Big dog and fucking Ray Island Sheesh They're not doing
Starting point is 01:22:51 None of the moves Right there No, bro. I agree with you. I agree. It's two-case set up there. That's Vincent T-Mack if they were to stay. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:22:59 For sure. Yeah, but you can go out and get, like you saying, you can go out. I like, Marr had 37, Joe, had Triple Doe. Jaylen Brown had 40, Jason Tatum, Triple Doe. So it's a, I'm saying? And then it goes down to what it looked like at the end of the day. That's what it is. Because that's boring.
Starting point is 01:23:16 Yeah. Their shit is boring. This shit is exciting, but it's still equally at power. So let's just say that. Jason Tater. and Jalen Brown the best duo in these. Nicola and... No, no, no, no, they all leave.
Starting point is 01:23:28 We go first, we go second. We let them be second. No, we don't like second. We like first. We're third. We ain't the second most greatest. We're going to second most greatest. You ain't got no choice now.
Starting point is 01:23:40 You ain't got no choice now. You're going to be the second most best. You can't be the first most greatest. You got to be second. Trying to think. Second. No more. Shit.
Starting point is 01:23:52 Oh, yeah, Jalen, I mean, Jaylon Williams ain't been shit. Yeah, not this year. He's been heard a lot this year. You can throw SGA chat potentially. No, you know. Cheb brings defensively. No, no.
Starting point is 01:24:04 That ain't even, no. They ain't even in the conversation. Yeah, it's a good talk about that. They ain't even in the conversation. They can't even do that. I put Cade and Durrton in there before I put, um, they saw it. On the list with Shea.
Starting point is 01:24:18 That's duo. Brothin and. I just don't think that too. Brounson in town. As best duo. They top... Honorable mention. Yeah, they're honorable mention 10.
Starting point is 01:24:30 Oh, um... We're doing the top 10 there on this problem. James. James Hardin? They're in the top 10. With Mowbly? Mobley, one of them. They're in the top 10.
Starting point is 01:24:39 Probably. You got to go James now. Yeah, you got to go James now. Go 10 then, top 10. It's tough. It's a lot of good shit out there right now. But duos, though? Like, there's...
Starting point is 01:24:52 far as two that's getting it done. What they look like at this particular moment? It's Luca LeBron or Luca A.R. Because at this moment, you could, right now, Luca A.R. But it was, Luca and Braun is the, it never looked good. It never looked good to me.
Starting point is 01:25:07 It just never. You got two alpha. Luca and Aiton would be more. That man and, um, Jewish random. Amen and Jew? Yeah. Nah. Ain't enough.
Starting point is 01:25:20 Nah, that ain't enough. It ain't enough. Fox and, oh, you put up. I put Castle up there. Fox and Wendy? Castle. It would be a better, because Fox is an all-star. Yeah, Fox and Winby.
Starting point is 01:25:31 Castle locks up too. The castle. That's why I take it. Yeah, I have 40 points of double in people. They're the best one, two, three? Are they the best one, two, three? Yeah. Right now?
Starting point is 01:25:42 I give you that one. Luke or Brown, they are. That's what I'm saying. They're probably a good second. Yeah, that's a good one. That's a good one. It would have been, shade. Shade
Starting point is 01:25:51 Shet No Jalen It would have If they were It's normally them But Yeah it's a good solid
Starting point is 01:25:58 Aiden and Luca for sure Aiden and Luca for sure It's what it's supposed to be He said I ain't compelled out here God damn I should Clint better Man You're gonna take Clint
Starting point is 01:26:12 He left the league and rebounding He did Yes he did He go get them forward Left the league and rebounding Yes he did They didn't play very well. Plant did his job like, man.
Starting point is 01:26:23 Lobb, thread, lock shot, all that. Run the four. Average 15 rebounds a night. For sure. Hey, DeAndre is he playing very well right now. What is his number right now? The last like 10.
Starting point is 01:26:34 On the season. What do you have on the season? Ball Miller can nibble? Good. For the three. Underrated. Yeah. Underrated.
Starting point is 01:26:42 Nice. Aiding average in 12 and 8. The fuck out of here. But that's the number. much we say he was going to no no no no I say he was supposed to be at least 18 we said 17 18 into the
Starting point is 01:26:57 give him in acclimated we said double double double 17 and 10 that's 17 17 and 11th that's what you need for the Lakers to win they know that's what they said in the 68% from the field no on the season no no Nick
Starting point is 01:27:10 fuck that game because they 8 and 2 they were like 8 and 2 in their last 10 yeah 82 and last 10 cool 12 and 8 and 8 ain't going to get it done, brother. Nah.
Starting point is 01:27:21 Because he ain't going and he barely average that in the playoff series. Last 10 games? What he averaging? 12 and 8. 12 and 8. So he's consistent.
Starting point is 01:27:27 He's stuck on. Well, he remember he made his mind of it. It was like, I'm going to beat this guy. I'm going to be better at you. It doesn't.
Starting point is 01:27:33 Since he wants me to be in my bench. Since you want me to be in my bed. Shit. 12 and 8. She, Clint average double double. 11 and 12, 12, 12 and 15. I get you. You're in your out.
Starting point is 01:27:47 I have two games. 15 and 8, but still. 15 and 8. He's stuck the eight, nigga. He don't get the fucking ball. But rebounds is eight. Huh? You can rebound that motherfucker.
Starting point is 01:27:59 You're a nigga. He's one of them I need motivation to go get the board type shit. For sure. Let me touch that motherfucker to get it. Yeah, take it out of bounds, nigga. Get it off the glass, bro. You can touch it as much as you listen. You can touch the ball as much watch as you want to get off the glass.
Starting point is 01:28:14 Hey, guess what kind of big he is? He the big that let the ball hit the ground and run down court when you're like, hey, man, take the ball. No, nigga, you take the ball out. He ran down the floor. Yeah, you can touch the ball as much you want rebounding, nigga. Average more than eight rebounds. You can touch that bitch, damn it, every possession.
Starting point is 01:28:31 I'm about to shoot it right now. Yeah. Right. Get this. You know what? Back three, see, he can get some rebounds. I will get some rebounding. Right.
Starting point is 01:28:40 A little more on Tatum. They don't try. Yeah. So like I said, Tatum continued to impress in his return to the court. Looking more and more like himself. So Celtics beat reporter, Noah Dozel. asked Tatum if there has been a turning point with the joy he felt being back on the court. And he talked about some advice that he got from Clay Thompson.
Starting point is 01:28:58 Clay told me this after we played them the first time. He was like, he was like, man, you know, he looked great. He's like, one thing he wished he did more, I guess, when he first came back, was like, just give himself more grace. He was like, man, not too many people understand what, you know, his injure is like and coming back and the ups and downs. It's physically and mentally that you deal with. That's just something I've tried to continue to remind myself.
Starting point is 01:29:24 You know, it's a balance of being a league competitor and wanting to be, you know, the best version of yourself. But it's just, you know, I just kind of try to remember I've came a long way. And I'm grateful to be why I'm at. Right. I wasn't 100% sure I was even going to be able to play this year. So the fact that I'm able to go out there and contribute. I don't know. I was going to be what I'm doing now.
Starting point is 01:29:51 It's a big one. So Tatum was in to ask if he's been applying Clay's advice. My man said, he replied, no, with a smoke machine currently. We have some issues in the area, but he said, said he's trying to find the joy but still gets frustrated. I'll say he didn't want to come back and be a role player. What are your thoughts on Tatum's mindset since returning to the court? That's a hard thing to do, return from Achilles' injury. He was frustrated initially with not being.
Starting point is 01:30:17 being able to come in right away and do what you do. Human nature, man. It's part of the process. Someone who dealt with two micro fracture surgeries and having the rehab from that and many restrictions, uncertainty, when and if you're going to be able to play. Yeah, but allowing yourself,
Starting point is 01:30:43 because we all, well, we look in the mirror and we see Superman still. Right? We see the pre-injured person. We don't see what's going on internally. So we still think that we can go out and compete like we did and play it like we did before the injury. So what Clay told him was accurate, right? Allow yourself some grace with this, man, because there are going to be days where you're not going to be yourself. You're not going to play as well as you think you should be playing. You're not going to feel like it. It just happens. It's human nature, right? And two. To have someone like Clay
Starting point is 01:31:20 that's played at a high level that's one at a high level and had to deal with this to have someone like that to lean on is great. Someone who you respect and to take the advice and use it.
Starting point is 01:31:38 They can say whatever to you, but to take the advice and use it is a testament to Jason Tatum's open mindness to outst source things, right? Because we don't know it all. This is first time dealing with something like this. So he don't know how to go about it. And that's the best advice that he could have received, I think, was to allow yourself grace with this. Because you're not going be yourself every day right away. So give it time. So I think it's dope.
Starting point is 01:32:06 Looks like he's getting closer and closer to himself. It was their conference player the week last week, triple double. But you do hear the noise. Like people talking, I think before that, Is he going to be the same? He's shooting a lot of shots, and he's not making a lot of shots. You're struggling from the field of Dougal. Shoot a shoot, right? Shoot a shoot. But that's dope that clay, you know, that's who the Warriors was.
Starting point is 01:32:35 Like Kay said, I'm glad he listened. That shows a testament to why they are who they are, why Boston Celtics are. You could have been listening to the media, try to separate you and Jalen Brown, but you know, he's still in the winning the championship. You become, you accept your role when Jalen's, you know, being a MVP candidate, assigned to a good teammate, assigned to somebody that know who he is, confident in himself. And, yeah, the best advice is to not listen to the outside noise and, you know,
Starting point is 01:33:19 You don't know it all. Ashah, when you hear Tatum talk, I think Tatum scored over 20 points in eight of the 12 games since he's been back. Had a season high 32. Sunday, came back, 25-point triple-dub.
Starting point is 01:33:36 Mr. Rummianma not playing tonight. He ducking? Ducking. Ducking. Thank you, Underdog. What I say, I said, it's better for him to duck if he's going to win,
Starting point is 01:33:44 that's the only chance he got. Shit. Duck and Koward. Oh, I had my money. I said the Clippers going to win, so, yeah. I remember when I came back from my micro fracture, first person I asked was, no, I didn't even ask him, he actually said something to me because I had came back.
Starting point is 01:34:04 Grant Hill, so he's like, it's going to take you a year to get back to where you feel comfortable doing a bunch of shit. It's going to, because I was struggling with trying to figure out whether or not it felt normal to do certain movements, but I was out there playing because you could still play. But it's like, can you, you feel like you're a shell of yourself. You're like, damn, I'm anticipating certain shit. He knew it right away. He felt he was playing with the sons.
Starting point is 01:34:32 He's like, it's going to take you a little bit, bro. Don't needn't worry about it. Take your time. Get out here. Push the limits. Take chances, but don't get down on yourself for not being who you think you're supposed to be. And I think that was something that definitely helped me. I ended up having my best year to next year going into that summer and prepping.
Starting point is 01:34:52 way but I had to get the kinks out. You know, you got to get that that bullshit out where you look and feel like it's just, ah, this ain't going to be the same. But I don't think that's happened for him. I think that first game for Jason Tatum was that was it. It was that I'm rusty, Mr. Dunk got hung, all that shit happened. It's like, damn, I ain't who I thought I was. I thought I was ready. But now it's beautiful to see him fight through it. The adversity is always a good thing to go through. So, um, I ain't who I thought I was ready. Um, but now, it's, it's beautiful to see him fight through it. The adversity is always a good thing to go through. So, um, um, um, um, To see him keep growing and keep growing and teammates have his back. Shit, I think by the time the second round comes, they can get through it. He'll be on his way. I don't think players understand how much confidence hearing your peers, like say something that uplift you or motivate you in a certain type of way has the effect on you, too, on your game. Facts.
Starting point is 01:35:47 Yeah, I don't think... Especially in the lights in the community. Yeah, yeah, like... Where we've been known to. It could be the little thing sometimes. But just the support from, you know, your peers means a lot that we don't shine the light on that too, though. Acknowledgement. Acknowledgement.
Starting point is 01:36:05 Just acknowledge. Sometimes you don't be knowing, niggas. Right. Fuck with your game or not. For real. Hey, bro, you, woo-woo. Like, oh, for real? Oh, shit.
Starting point is 01:36:13 You? Yeah. I don't need nobody else to say shit to me. You like, oh, you like my name? Oh, then. Fuck it then. Fuck everybody else. Right.
Starting point is 01:36:22 That shit crazy. All right, well, let's stay in the Eastern Conference. Short-handed Pistons had OKC on the ropes Monday, taking the defending champs to overtime without their top five scores in that loss. Follow that up with a win over the Raptors Tuesday to all but lock up the top seat in the east with Jalen Dern dropping 31 points and nine boards in that win. So despite losing their franchise player for the foreseeable future, the Pistons haven't missed a beat.
Starting point is 01:36:49 Let's take a look. at interesting numbers. I want your guys opinion on. So Detroit, 11 and 4 without K. Cunningham this season. 7 and 2 in the last nine games without their franchise player, which includes the game he left with the punctured lung after only playing five minutes. But Pistons actually have a higher win percentage
Starting point is 01:37:05 in the 15 games without Kade this season than the 61 he's played. Who they play? Like I said, the Pissons have a four-game lead over the Celtics for the top spot in the East. Six games remaining, but they own the tiebreaker. So the Celtics. who they played since then
Starting point is 01:37:20 NBA teams? The teams in the national basketball Sturt? Teams that was on the schedule before Kaye got hurt? It was New Orleans. Okay.
Starting point is 01:37:30 NBA team? They beat them. They beat Minnesota. No, A man. So it was kind of even. Lost the O.C. Beat the Lakers, snap their non-game winning streak.
Starting point is 01:37:44 Beat the record. I remember that game. Oh, they beat the Wizards. Cool, they're on the schedule. The West Coast Wizards Go on the state after that. Nasty. Nasty.
Starting point is 01:37:53 Nasty. Nasty. Nasty. New Orleans. Loss of the Hawks by one in overtime. Lost with Thunder and overtime. They had a good little schedule right there. A winnable schedule.
Starting point is 01:38:05 We need to close these games. We need to win these joints. Got to win when we need to win. Yeah, for sure. Missing their best player. Yeah. No, for sure. But to beat the Lakers was a good win.
Starting point is 01:38:14 Yeah, that was a good. The Missingade, Isaiah Stewart, also. been hurt. Some time, I think, with a calf strain. I'm saying this is not the Bad Boys 2.0 Piston Squad that they're rolling out there, but they're seeing some big contributions for other guys on the roster. They're trying to put, make this something without K. They, I'm just pointing out that that would be coaching though, right?
Starting point is 01:38:34 It's just there for me. It's just there for measers. They were going to Atlanta, beat New Orleans, beat Memphis, lost to O'KC. Even the games they're losing. Yeah. Picked under the overtime. Solid. Solid.
Starting point is 01:38:46 Lost by one of the Hawks It was like two games, Toronto, Lakers. Yeah, they lost the Oklahoma City game. They took them boys the overtime where they played five G-lead guys. Bags. I remember that. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:38:58 I'm just saying, like, without their top five scores in that game, they compete. They play hard. That's why. Dern was out for that game. Dern was out that game. So do you guys like how the Pistons have responded without Kay Cunningham?
Starting point is 01:39:12 They could have easily went on a skid, tricked off, top spot in the east. Well, Nick definitely said it was going to be trashed. Booty juice after this. Yeah, I did. Booty juice. Well, they didn't show it up. They haven't.
Starting point is 01:39:26 They're going to be number one for sure. But I don't know. I don't think this is going to work in the playoffs, though. Well, they should have K back for the playoff. I like it. They're keeping it consistent. Keep it consistent. J.B. ain't got them wavering.
Starting point is 01:39:44 He got them still clicking on all cylinders. Then that just goes. to show it's more of a system play. Is it? They put Jenkins in K position. But it's just guys waiting on their opportunity. Yeah. That means you got a bench full of guys
Starting point is 01:39:59 that's actually doing what they need to do. Staying prepared, buying into the scouting report and everything that's being done, where they want to go with the ball. Think about their offense without Jalen Darden out there. You got no K, no Jailen. Like, what the hell is the business? Tobias Harris?
Starting point is 01:40:18 They're better than the weather still. Yeah. They're winning. They better than the Warriors still. So I think those games give you confidence. But them toss-up games, though. Them with toss-up games for the other teams to come in and steal, we're playing against the number one team pissings without their main guys, we could steal these games.
Starting point is 01:40:37 And they ended up winning and be able to hold them off. That's commendable. So here's the situation though in the Eastern Conference. You've got the Raptors in 7 currently. Could potentially be the Sixers who have climbed to the Sixers. spot also be the hornets. Who would you rather play that? Raptor 7th, Hornets 8th right now.
Starting point is 01:40:54 Really? We're looking at potential pistons, hornets. After the fist and cuffs they got into, I asked you guys about this a couple of weeks ago. Yeah. Yeah. So what's the, what's the, I'm looking at play in. So. You go, Thai.
Starting point is 01:41:08 Playing right now is Raptors at 7th, Hornets, 8th, Magic 9th. Hornets 40 wins. Horns 40 wins. Orlando 40 wins. Miami 40 wins. So Magic and Hornets are both four. 40 and 36 right now. Horns have the tie braids.
Starting point is 01:41:20 That's what I'm saying. Magic don't look the same. And what happened over there? Pollo crash. They've been in and out. They ain't been healthy. But they were supposed to be like on the- Yeah, fifth, six, fourth.
Starting point is 01:41:35 At least out there are three. Three, you three-four. Yeah, they were supposed to be on some spurs and piston shit this year. The Wagner boys got hurt and then Pollo got hurt. How are you? Yeah, they've been sliding. And I don't really trust in Miami Heat, so. I can see the Pistons Hornets match up.
Starting point is 01:41:54 I like that. That would be easy. I think that would be easy for the, who? Detroit. Without K. No, Kade or with Kade? No, Ked has to play. Ked will be there.
Starting point is 01:42:03 That's the play. Hell, yeah. In the playoffs, yes. Against them? Against anybody. Anybody. You see. In the playoffs?
Starting point is 01:42:10 Yeah, he got to be there. La Mello. I see. Mello playing, bro. Mello. I see Jenkins in front of Lackay or. Hey, Jenkins been playing very well. He has, but, come on.
Starting point is 01:42:21 He ain't ready. We're talking about a need four wins. You need four wins, brother. Four wins. You need four wins. I'm not. We need K. Solid holding it down.
Starting point is 01:42:32 The Abbate, I don't trust him. Man. Do you about it? No, he's solid, but I just don't trust him against Darden and all the rest of them. I'm not eight. I don't want to see Boston, so I don't want to be seven. I'd rather be eighth right now. And who's seven?
Starting point is 01:42:46 Raptors right now. Raptors. Raptors. Then Sixers, Raptors. Then sixers, Raptors on. When it's all. I like the sixers and six. It's solid.
Starting point is 01:42:55 Sixers and Raptors right now, I think they would be either six or sevens. They want Knicks. They want the Knicks. They want the Knicks too. Right now. Especially right now. I'm trying to finish six, whoever I'm trying to play the Knicks at three. Mm.
Starting point is 01:43:11 Disappointment. It's going to be some good playoff, man. It is going to be. I'm doing a whole little special. I'm doing a whole little special. You get a win. James and Atlanta? Shit.
Starting point is 01:43:23 Oh, that's going to be the match at? Yeah. Cleveland, Atlanta. That could be troublesome. Man, that's what I'm saying. Hey, listen, Atlanta is coming to play. I'm not going to lie. McCullum got them boys out there playing.
Starting point is 01:43:36 Nikiel got them boys out, Johnson out there. Ian, you got a comming out there. You don't know what he's going to do. Man, for sure. Sure. I like them a lot. So I'm telling the cops does not have much faith in this Pistons squad, the East has not run through Detroit
Starting point is 01:43:52 in your guys' opinion? No, they're not going to right. It's running through Boston. You run through Boston. But Detroit is a sleeper. You know, I'm saying with K, I'm saying we just don't know how effect that K is going to be
Starting point is 01:44:04 by this punctual lung situation, right? Many restrictions are now we just don't know. They've been in pole position throughout the season, right? They've been in one. But we'll see I'm saying we need to see how he's going to look But right now
Starting point is 01:44:20 He's frustrated As it stands I think we can say Boston is Trimmy He got his last weed testing Now he came He don't test no
Starting point is 01:44:31 Edible Swike Edom It's no cream No I thought it's still three No No they test Well still
Starting point is 01:44:38 He can't do nothing Now They test the pen They test the other shit Oh my shit No You're edible It's a pen
Starting point is 01:44:45 bro They test for other shit. I wish, boy. Shit. So it's not three tests no more? No, it was four. Four, yeah. Yeah, it used to be four.
Starting point is 01:44:55 It was four. Oh, that was three. Yeah. Too early, too late. It didn't even matter. It gave me, listen. They gave yours one, two, three, four. I didn't give a fuck.
Starting point is 01:45:02 How many you had? When that ball stopped bouncing, that train, and that, listen, I'm firing that train up, brother. That's just what it was. God. The glory day. That's it. I didn't smoke during the season. So, listen.
Starting point is 01:45:15 Soon as that ball stopped bound. Soon as there wasn't no more of this shit. Jump ball and went no more of this. I don't think there was a time we didn't ever roll up. We was rolling up. The whole seat here. Touchdown. What room we're going to, man?
Starting point is 01:45:32 Whose room we're going to? Yours or mine? When the championships doing that, it's sick. Y'all were doing that? No. Yeah, okay. Christian man over there. Christian man.

Starting point is 01:46:13 That's all you need doing that. Focus. Focus. Focus. Focus. We could have did that out. I wish we could have smoked freely, bro. When we were just playing.
Starting point is 01:46:20 Some dudes did. Yeah, some dudes. Regardless. Yeah, but I- Whatever rules in. Yeah, no matter just, for me, I just, yeah. We just need to go to therapy once a week. We was good.
