Starting point is 00:04:17 So let's get into it. Warriors lost Jimmy Butler for the season with a torn ACL during their MLK day win over the heat. We're back in action Tuesday for the second night of a back-to-back against the Raptors. So before the game, Steve Kerr was asked about the prospects of Jonathan Cominga getting out of the doghouse and back into the Warriors' rotation. He could be. He could be, yeah. You know, he obviously hasn't played in a while. But, you know, at this point, we have to experiment a little bit with, see where we are, and he's definitely, you know, a part of that talk, that conversation.
Starting point is 00:04:56 Steve, to that point, you've talked to him, do you think he wants to be part of the rotation? Yeah. So you think he wants to play for you guys still right now? I do. Well, Kurt wasn't wrong. Kaminga played for the first time in 17 games. Damn. Send a message to his current team.
Starting point is 00:05:16 Let's take a look at the highlights if we can. So Minga didn't see the floor into the start of the second quarter with the Warriors down. 13 went scoreless in the five minutes he played in the first half. Caught fire in the third quarter, though, scoring 12 points while going four for five from the field, four for four from the line. Finish the game with 20 points on 7 to 10 shooting. Also had five rebounds in 21 minutes of action. Buddy Hill led the words with a season high 25 points off the bench.
Starting point is 00:05:42 But the Raptors put up a season high 145 points in the wire-to-wire win, leading by as much as 30 in the game. So we got to give some love to Emmanuel quickly, really quick. He matched his career high with 40 points on 11 to 13 shooting. He was 7 or 8 from deep, along with 10 assists. Quickly had the most efficient 40-point game in NBA history. I know you guys don't care about true shooting percentage, but was the most efficient 40-point game NBA history to do with that information,
Starting point is 00:06:06 which you will. Raptor snap the Warriors four-game winning streak. Let's shift back to Kaminga, though, has been the subject of discussion for some time now, giving his tumultuous relationship with the warrior. So after the game, Kerr had this to say about Comingus performance. He came in and had great energy, attacked the rim, made some shots. I thought JK was really good and it's a great sign.
Starting point is 00:06:30 You know, with Jimmy out, obviously there's a hole, you know, at that spot on our roster. So JK's going to, you know, factor in here again and really pleased with the way he stayed ready and stayed prepared and, you know, got his opportunity and played really well. Steve, did you know you were going to play Jonathan, maybe not that much, but you're going to play him tonight? Yeah. Did you know he was going to be prepared to play like this tonight? I, you know, it's been a month or so since he's played, and we haven't had any practices. So it's, you know, it's hard to have any idea, you know, how someone's going to play in that set of circumstances. But he was really good.
Starting point is 00:07:13 That's what Kurt said. Dremont also asked about Kamingas. We know Kaminga's teammates been extremely supportive of him throughout this whole process. Draman said, I think we've all been very vocal about how he's handled himself. He's been incredible, and that is proven by the game he had. If you've been a nuisance, if you will, that game doesn't happen for you. So start with you go. How impressive was Jonathan Kaminga's performance against the Raptors? No, the Warriors lost, but Kamega, 20 points, 21 minutes, actually played in the game.
Starting point is 00:07:43 What was the question? How impressive? I'm impressed with his performance. Thank you. By being not playing for 17 games and still mentally being there to perform for a team that don't want them. So I'm very impressed. Should I go. Do you swaggy?
Starting point is 00:08:08 On his championship with a Golden State Awards. Play for that very man that we just saw on the screen. Steve Kerr. That's a tough situation of being. but for him to still go out there and perform like he did and to those you got to give him all the praise him in buddy hill you know it's tough mentally physically not practicing you got to get in the gym on your own you're feeling down feeling bad for yourself but to still get like the strength to go out there and be professional
Starting point is 00:08:45 hit buckets, proving people wrong. You got to give him nothing, but, you know, praise, for sure. So, Camilla last played December 18th. Played 10 minutes in the game against the Phoenix Sun. This was the first time playing since then, Mr. B. Go out there see Jonathan Camiga drop 20 points, 21 minutes. Yeah, it just speaks to his professionalism. You know, just like Gil and Nick said, all the rumors, everything he's been hearing,
Starting point is 00:09:13 not being a part of the rotation, couldn't can't fit the system. Through all that, he still went out there and played basketball, you know, the game he loves the most. I think I was talking about just the other day about when you're hearing rumors and when you're hearing things about certain situations, how are you going to react? And he's reacted at 23 years old in a professional way. If I'm a young guy, you know, you've got to look at that. Like they plan mind games with him. You know, he's been here, he's put into time and everything and he still goes out there and just perform him because he loves the game of basketball.
Starting point is 00:09:45 So shout out to Kaminga. You know, whenever his number is called, he shows that he's always going to be ready and available. Let's shift over this. So I saw your face while watching Steve Kerr in this press conference. Yeah, no, you got to get John the Kamika all the praise man in this moment. And for him to, like everybody's statement, for him to be ready and I know in his heart is hard, he probably wanted to tell us. He probably wanted to tell Steve Kerr, go fuck yourself.
Starting point is 00:10:19 But that probably would have led to a fine. Him not being ready to play, him telling him no, that probably would have led to a fine. So, yeah, for him to go out there and do it the way he did it. Yeah, man, shout out to that young man. But I'd have a question for Steve Kerr. What's any different than, you're talking about he came out, aggressive, attacking the bads,
Starting point is 00:10:41 what's any difference than any other time he takes the floor? the same way he plays all the time but there's no minutes for him no other time like he's the same player that he can't get in the rotation he's like no that's that's wild and
Starting point is 00:10:57 yeah if I'm John the committee I'm gonna tell hey man you don't get to call me J.K. bro we ain't that cool you gotta call me what my mama named me bro like you don't get to call me what my friends and people
Starting point is 00:11:12 that care about me called me You don't get that honor. Like, you call me what my mama named me. They call you Jonathan. Call me Jonathan, brother. You don't get to call me J.K. Like, we ain't that cool. Like, you got me over this bitch
Starting point is 00:11:25 just rot and playing with my motherfucking career and my emotions and think it's okay just to, when it fits your schedule for you to play me. Like, no, that don't work, man. Like, Steve Kerr, you make it hard to like you, though. Still fucking with him, right?
Starting point is 00:11:41 Like, yeah, you still. Call him J.K. Yeah. Yeah, man. You got the fucking gym. You don't like me. Yeah, you got the gym talking shit. Like, bro, no, that ain't.
Starting point is 00:11:51 Shout out to Jonathan Camiga, man. Like, for going out and being professional, bro, with real shit, man. Like. Last and not least. Cemetery Larry, Shastradamus, a man of many names. Yes, yes.
Starting point is 00:12:04 You've been very vocal from the beginning of this saga. Yes. Warriors were a burning building. Yes. John de Cominga needed to run. Yes. he decided to put his fireman suit on, stay in the house. Now he's been burning out there, bitch.
Starting point is 00:12:19 And in the basement, wait for somebody to come save him. But, you know, like the book says, Chapter 13, the book of fuck you pay me. When you can go out there and prove, you can shoot me, but you can't kill me. You can try it. Bitch, better try harder.
Starting point is 00:12:47 Like they really tried. And like we say, I don't really fuck with Steve Kerr like that. And Mike doesn't leave you here on the list too. Like what y'all trying over there is obvious. What you expect him to do? Like he's supposed to be a professional and everybody that's acting as if they would do, that he would do what we would do, which would be an asshole, which would say,
Starting point is 00:13:10 nah, I'm not going in the game and all of these different things. But when you actually love the game of basketball and you've been putting these situations, the only thing you can do is show up. The only thing you can do is think about the love of the game while you're at the bottom of the barrel and you're saying to yourself, when I do get this opportunity,
Starting point is 00:13:28 I'm about to prove to them. Look what we could have been doing if you would have been playing me. But now it's fuck you, pay me. Fuck you, Steve Kerr, fuck you, Mike Dunn, leaving. Hey, and them little phony-ass teammates over there that was doing all, not doing shit, saying shit.
Starting point is 00:13:45 Now all of a sudden, y'all saying shit. That shit phony as hell. 16 straight DMPs. I've been there. I know it's feel like. Man, we, we're with you, but we can't be witching publicly, man. I want to play too.
Starting point is 00:14:01 I want to play too, bro. Look, man, when it's all over, we're going to have some dinner or something. But right now, it can't be seen with you. I can't go nowhere with you. Can't come to the crib. None of that. But his performance, to me,
Starting point is 00:14:14 like you just said, ain't nothing changed. Yeah. He's still the same player. He still go out there. Aggressive, ruthless. He looks like his shot is more pure. He looks a lot more athletic.
Starting point is 00:14:25 It's like he didn't have some time to really heal the parts of his body now that can make him look even more ultra-athletic. He ain't got no injuries. And the C-Steem-Curbed makeup shit. The thing's fresh. He ain't ran him down that motherfuckin' 17-game. The motherfuckeruck's fresh. And he ain't played for a lot.
Starting point is 00:14:41 The last time he did, it was 10 games. 10 minutes, I mean, come on. What do you expect? I expect him to be there, you know, after a month, it's like, bro, after a month? You respect him to play bad. That's what it was. They set him up to fail.
Starting point is 00:14:54 Come out of that motherfucker be like, see, that's why we ain't playing then. I'm shit like that. Exactly what it was, bro. That's exactly what it was. And he turned the tables on their ass. I'm proud of him. There ain't enough appreciation for players like him that's being put in a situation like Khalil Ware, Cam Whitmore, Cair Cam Thomas, all these type of guys that are being
Starting point is 00:15:13 shitted on by coaches who don't have no accountability. There ain't no union to protect these type of players. And if they come out to defend themselves, it's all hell going to break loose. So if you need an advocate, I'm going to get on their ass for sure. For sure. Mike Dunleaving, man. Oh, man.
Starting point is 00:15:30 These these Duke niggas, man. So what are Dunleaving? I mean, what do come in going to have to say after the game? Was it, was there? Let me, let me try. Yeah, that's what I, like this. He had an interview? I'm saying, why not?
Starting point is 00:15:40 They stuck the mic in his face when he wasn't fucking playing. Like I said, like I was saying that day, You quick to stick a mic in his face when he ain't playing. Facts. Do not know. He did not give him no mic. Yeah. You said something interesting, right?
Starting point is 00:15:58 That nobody is, like, publicly has come out and be like, man, like, JK really deserve to be playing, man. Like, I don't know what this is about. Everything has been probably, he's being a professional. Yeah, that ain't the support I need. He's going to get his opportunity somewhere. Yeah, that ain't the support I need.
Starting point is 00:16:17 I need you. Listen, y'all know what I bring to the table. I'm busting y'all ass in this bitch every day. Y'all know what I can do. There's no practice. Huh? Yeah, they're not practicing. Well, they're practicing.
Starting point is 00:16:27 The stars ain't practicing. Them niggas is practicing. Yeah, they do the three-0-3-0-3. The player development guys, the coach they got over there. He ain't stayed in, listen, he ain't stayed in this kind of shape, to be game ready. It's individual work-out-out-out. But they plan three and three and four. They're three and three and four.
Starting point is 00:16:44 By yourself so you don't hurt nobody. Yeah, that type. We're not going to let you go at him because you. Yeah, yeah, what they're not. What they're right. For sure. Yeah, but Quentin Poles, like all the young guys, they got two on two, three, on three with the player development guys. He had to get some type of bump in.
Starting point is 00:16:57 He got to. Yeah, to be that, to be. They got to be, yeah, he is. As much as I think it's real in together. As I applaud him. Boy, you're stupid. Uh-oh. You're stupid.
Starting point is 00:17:10 You didn't hear what the man said earlier. Day before. You ain't worth shit. Oh, we're going to get to that in a second again. Yeah. to it. Yeah, we might as well talk about it while we're on a sudden. I'm ready. Get to it. Because...
Starting point is 00:17:24 This is a topic, a comprehensive. Because at the end of the day... Might as well get to it. You're traded 100%. No matter what the fuck you do out there, you're gone. Because you're asked... You are traded. By them, by yourself.
Starting point is 00:17:40 No matter what, you're not going to stop that fate. What you can stop is, what they get back. See, you go out there and you ball out. You raise your value for what they can get back for you. See, so everybody wants you, but they're not giving them nothing for you, right? You treat them like dog. We're going to give you a dog food.
Starting point is 00:18:03 Right? You go out there and play like a lion. They demand more. See, right now, you sit on that bench. With them peanuts they get, eventually they got to eat it. And they got it at the end of it, 13 minutes left. They can be like, ah, fucking give it to us. You go out there and you do this 20, 20, 20, 20, they get to sit there like, yeah, see, hey, hey.
Starting point is 00:18:23 Told you. Hey. Hey. I told you for first. I told you from first. No, no. You shouldn't do that. You get to get me back.
Starting point is 00:18:31 That's not. I don't think that's what they know. You're crazy as fuck. They can't do that. I hear you though. Look. People are going to sit there and be like, why you have been playing? Okay.
Starting point is 00:18:38 Let me ask you. They look stupid. Okay, let me ask you a question. I got a different. What did, what did he say? He said there's no demand for you, right? Well, go. Let's get to that.
Starting point is 00:18:47 We are. That's what we're talking about. Yeah, but do you want it to play the clip so you can actually hear what he said? Okay. Yeah, so the people can hear it. Okay, I'll take my back. Let's build to it. This is a building topic. Go ahead.
Starting point is 00:19:00 Gil's reading and presented by under the woo-woo. So, Mike Dunleavy, the world general manager, addressed the media on Tuesday as well to discuss Jimmy Butler and Jonathan comming his future with the team. Dunleavy said he envisions keeping Butler with the Warriors next season, not looking to try and trade with Willby his aspiring contract next season. and Dunleavy had this response to Kaminga's trade request. I mean, I think as far as the demand, I'm aware of that.
Starting point is 00:19:25 I think when you, you know, in terms of demands, when you make a demand, there needs to be demand on the market. So we'll see where that unfolds. But heard always with these guys, I tell them I'm willing to work with them, you know, want to help people out, whether that's JK or any player on our roster. So we're good with, you know, if that's his, wishes trying to figure that out but we got to do what's best for organization and that's what we'll do and as far as it goes with the deadline coming up you know I think we'll take the next
Starting point is 00:19:56 couple weeks to assess this team a little bit more I felt pretty good with where we're at heading in the last night's game in terms of what we need to do I thought our team was playing really well heading in the right direction obviously things have changed so I want to take a couple weeks here to watch these games and see our team and what we can do better what's the best for our organization. So if he wanted to get traded and let's say the Lakers, you know he doesn't want to be there. He hasn't played. Were you actually giving him?
Starting point is 00:20:28 What are you going to give him? Give the Lakers? No, what is the Lakers going to offer for Kaminga? Knowing you don't want them. Don't connect, right? Smart. Right? Give me that.
Starting point is 00:20:38 Ooh, ooh. Smart? They're going to be like, no, no, no, we good. That's not enough for us. he goes out there and he's averaging 20 every game now what are they going to be demanding Rui
Starting point is 00:20:52 he's already worth that so he's playing if he's playing the way he's playing for the organization they get back better pieces for this piece they're losing if he sits the value that he's at
Starting point is 00:21:07 that's all they can get yeah but does that I mean Gil he hasn't played 16 games at this point he comes out and drops 40 they've already diminished that value right but I got to push back against that I got to push back against that
Starting point is 00:21:21 simply because if you think about what they're doing they didn't want to give him money to begin with right so if he's actually playing like shit and they get shit back for him it's better for them because they don't want to spend the money so whoever they get back at the low that's the whole reason for devaluing him
Starting point is 00:21:38 in the first place let's devalue him let's not play him let's make his stock as low as possible. So when we do trade them, we get less that we don't have to pay for. And we go into the draft knowing that we're going to tank and we're going to get an upside piece that's younger, that we don't even have to pay then. Now, if he does do what he did last night, raise his own stock, now they're having to trade him for somebody like Rui,
Starting point is 00:22:07 somebody that's worth more that they don't want to pay, like a fucking Demander Rosen or somebody like that. They got to come in here and be like, damn, we really wasn't expecting this asset because now we got to pay more than we was expecting to. Maybe we might win a few more games than we expected to. They're playing in the tank, and I don't think Jonathan Caminga was expected to one play to two play well, and he fucked the whole algorithm up for them. 24 million is 24 million. So Camina, no matter how much he average, he can't get back to Marta Rosen. You can only get back what his money is.
Starting point is 00:22:41 Right. So either you're going to get back. a real $24 million worth or you're going to get back a trash $24 million worth. You're getting back $24 million. Do you want Rui at $24 million or do you want Daltor Kinnett and Smart
Starting point is 00:22:56 or Gabe Vinson for the same $24 million? You got to play anyway. My question is... So, Camig is making $23 million this year. DeMara is making $25. Okay. So if he played, he can get back that. So my question is this.
Starting point is 00:23:08 If it was Rui or DeMar, are we going to have to extend them? It doesn't matter. I don't think so. Right? Now, we wouldn't have to extend Dalton Connect or Mark is smart. Dahl's Connect more likely. Not if he ain't playing well.
Starting point is 00:23:23 We get off that. We go right off. Like, I'm thinking they're looking at the lowest asset possible just to fill this void until the summer comes up. Then that's, you're going to get the lowest asset today. If he continues to play bad or not play at all. But if he plays good and he raises his stock, that's bad for the war. That's bad for Mike Dunleavy. He's looking like, damn, man,
Starting point is 00:23:47 we wasn't expecting this much value for this. Now we can't tank. Now we got to trade. Now we got to make moves. And he ain't trying to make moves. You see what he's saying? How can you say he doesn't have a demand when you're not playing him? Aaron Turner, Kaminga's agent,
Starting point is 00:24:03 sitting there like, that doesn't make sense economically. How the fuck is you saying? There's no demand and you're not even playing, my guy. You get demand when you play. There's no demand of what I want back. Yeah, that's all he's saying. That's what he's saying.
Starting point is 00:24:18 What I want back, there's no demand. He don't know what the fuck he won't when you got rid of Clay Thompson for the fucking Pizzinsky. You obviously don't know what the fuck you won't. These fucking duke niggas act like they're so fucking smart. The motherfuckers ain't smart. Motherfucking getting on my fucking nerves, man. Sitting here like he's smarter than everybody.
Starting point is 00:24:35 You ain't fucking smart, man. You're fucking up the team. Obviously, the team's been fucked up since you took over. You're not the smart, mother. And it was headed in that direction too even prior to. I mean, Bob Martin, they got it. Bob knew what he was doing with, when Gray told us, Bob was like, man, I'm out of here.
Starting point is 00:24:51 I ain't about to fuck, they ain't fucking burning me with this burning shit. Like when, what was it, uh, Jah? They got phone calls. What they're being presented, they don't like it. They ain't like it. It ain't worth Jha. It ain't worth them.
Starting point is 00:25:06 Keep calling. Yeah, that's what he's saying. Why you think no trades ever happened soon as did? Because what people are offering, I don't want it. Right. So people just hold out and they're going to wait to the last hour, that last week,
Starting point is 00:25:21 when you're desperate. Yep. Yep. And then they just start throwing stuff. Then you start just making trade. Put the trash out on the garbage. Put the trash out. Hey, you're like the same trash now?
Starting point is 00:25:30 Yeah. Fuck it. Come on, yeah. So let me ask y'all, is that not like a form of collusion to burn the product as if there is no demand for it when there is? It's just not what you want. You're actually telling people that
Starting point is 00:25:43 John, for me, ain't as good as he think. Ain't nobody calling here giving us anything worth what we want. Like, nigga, what are you talking about? We just seen the highlights. It's called old stupidity of general managing. They have this idea that I can trade him better if I talk shit about him.
Starting point is 00:26:06 It just seems so morally wrong if I trade a good guy, right? Yeah. If I, oh, he's such a great lock. Yeah, yeah, and I'm getting rid of you get rid of you. Yeah, yeah. How can you get rid of him a little bit? Oh, horrible locker room guy and then get rid of them.
Starting point is 00:26:21 Well, unfortunately, it's the opposite of what you think. If I have a Bogotty and I say everything that's wrong with the baguadi, the buyer is not going to give me Bogotty prices. That's why you guys get lowballed every time, because you're bashing the baguadie saying it ain't worth nothing to God, this, this, this, and they're like, whoa, okay, well, this. Let me take 300,000 off of it. Let me give you this. He's like, oh, no, no, no, no.
Starting point is 00:26:49 I don't want that. Then talk to it like it's a bag. Hey, listen, we can't hold on to him. He's a very good guy, very good locker room guy. We're just moving in a different direction. But look, he's worked all of 300,000. He's unhelpousy, boom, boom, you know what? I can use that ass down.
Starting point is 00:27:03 So just imagine if he had been playing the last 17 games. You could have been got off of him for something that you wanted. Because he's going to go out there and do what he does. That's proven. He's going to come out there and help put points on the board. However the game is going, right? If he would have played the last 16 games, you wouldn't have no problem right now getting off of him.
Starting point is 00:27:26 You can get back what you want. You can get back what you won't. But now, to your own point, you're going to accept what we're offering right now. Like, it's just what it is. Like, you bad-mouthed him now we know it is. Yeah, I know it. So what is it? Teams want to know, so what is it?
Starting point is 00:27:42 That's collusion, man, especially when you can't say what it is. Because there's nothing. Exactly. He's a doghouse. It's made up. What did he do? What did he do? What did he do?
Starting point is 00:27:52 What did he do? What did he does? He said this to me. No, it's only one thing that he did. He doesn't defer to 30. That's it, dog. Gotta be. That's it.
Starting point is 00:28:03 Gotta be. He doesn't defer to Steph. He's looking for his man when he's out there. But who one nigga ain't saying nothing why he was out there? Come on now. And nobody spoke with that. That one nigga ain't spoke up for him. for him.
Starting point is 00:28:13 Come on, man. Let that one man say, hey, listen, I need him out there with me for us to win. Guess who going to be out there playing? Well, do you think he feels that way? I'm just saying, if he felt that way. If they were trying to win and the team as a totality were trying to win, Jonathan Camingo would be playing. Right, there's nothing that.
Starting point is 00:28:34 If he felt that way, wouldn't he be like, yeah? No, let me tell you this right now. When we was with the Nuggets, right, you don't know. You don't think, like, with JR and George. Come on now. You're going to play him. I don't get for what you're talking about. He can help us win.
Starting point is 00:28:50 I don't get for what your personal issues is with this. Listen, he's playing, though. Oh, JR? Yeah, too good. But can Steve Kurt overly think shit and try to be too smart? He's doing. That's what he does. That's what he's doing?
Starting point is 00:29:02 You have to play for him. Yeah, I don't think he got nothing to do with Steph. I think. But if Steph said something, though. If he did. If Steph came out and be like, listen, no, we need J.K. on the floor with us. Yeah, I got it.
Starting point is 00:29:15 I got to figure out. If Steph came out of a listen, I need J.K. on the floor with us, man. I think he can help us. You don't think that resonates with. No, no, facts. That resonates. With the owner, at least. If you don't think the owner going to be like.
Starting point is 00:29:25 If Raymond came out and said, listen, we need J.K. on the floor with us, man. Yeah, I don't think they care about what I'm just. If he comes out and says that, people pay attention with Draymond. Yeah. Wasn't they? Because it'd be for Drammon. That was for sure. Be it long there, Goddain.
Starting point is 00:29:42 I mean, I'm a, I can tell you for there and sure, because I used to do this. You don't pass me the ball, Goddemy, you can sit right over there. Get your mind right on the bench. Bring me them passers. I got shit to do. Okay. He got this passer out there. Everybody want to come in there and shoot.
Starting point is 00:29:57 He has this personal passer. He is. He has this personal passer out there. Personal pass. He don't need number one out there to pass. He got his personal passer out there. Getting older. I'm talking about you.
Starting point is 00:30:11 You're so athletic. You're beating by your guy, and my guy going to go, whoo! Go it to me. Over here. You've been open the all game, whoo! Ah, I know it to me. What was the team that just played that had them all in the corner?
Starting point is 00:30:24 They was playing four on five. They was playing a boxing one on them. Oh, Steph? Yeah. But yesterday? The last game before that. Oh, Hornets, maybe. No.
Starting point is 00:30:35 And who was sitting in the corner with him, just sitting there? Oh, he'd follow them to the... Yeah, I think it was Hornet. It was Hornets. Yeah, following them off the court. Yeah, see, that's what you need to make a full. Then go dunk a couple times, yeah. And then, who!
Starting point is 00:30:48 But then you want him to pass it to you. Yeah, no, fuck that. They still guard you the same way. He's mine. They still guard you the same way. Hey, they're doing them. They still guard you the same way. God damn, this is my turn.
Starting point is 00:30:59 I've been bad. More man, put regular basketball. No, it would change the dynamic if Steph did say something. That's all I'm saying. We're not going to put it on Steph, like, you know, X, you should. Ex-Y-Z. But none of him.
Starting point is 00:31:11 No, it can't be stuff. Remember, they had pool one time, too. But Steph doesn't need to say that publicly. If he said publicly, the Miga needs to be privately. Yeah, go away. Steve. Go ahead. Privately publicly.
Starting point is 00:31:22 I'm not going to hear that. I'm not going to be saying that. That's what I'm saying. Listen, private, public, whatever it is, those words being said to Steve Kerr out of Steph Curry's mouth would resonate. It'll go a long way. Obviously, that ain't happened. For whatever the reason is.
Starting point is 00:31:41 I don't think it got nothing to do with Steph. For him not, no, he ain't got nothing to do. He was too. No, no one's saying. It has nothing to do with him. Even if Jonathan Camiga don't pass, they've been on, they had players like Johna Kaminga already out there with stuff.
Starting point is 00:31:57 They're gone, though, right? But he's gone because he got punched. They got punched out of there. Gone, right? But he got punched out of there. They all are the pot. Who didn't pass and nobody like that, too. And he was out there with St.
Starting point is 00:32:11 Steph is a quiet, neutral guy. I ain't going to lie, I can't put that on. No, we're not putting nothing on. In the locker room, he's too chill. Who's worse? Who's worse? He's in Pizzinski. Like, when I look at the game, I'd rather have Amiga and Pazinski out there. Absolutely.
Starting point is 00:32:30 I mean, because his game, he does more. His game, like, he might be a smart player for his style of play. He's a pick and roll guy that needs to stop the game. Do that. He's like Julius Randall at the point guard position. So he's not a quick player that's going to do that. So I'd rather have Kamega just do your little ISO, get to the rim, versus this bop, okay. Man, he put pressure on the rim, your guys in power.
Starting point is 00:32:55 He's still trying to prove for this. He's fucking good. He's trying to prove his reason why he traded to play and all of them. I'm so bad. But every time we have a good game, he's like, he keeps his ass out there. Yeah, I told you. He told you. He do.
Starting point is 00:33:10 We've had our samples already. We got enough. We've seen. We know what it is. We've seen it. As to Miami. Yeah, that's what he can throw. See, I told you.
Starting point is 00:33:20 There you go. And they was holding up deals because they wanted to get rid of it. He's a good player from Miami, too. That's the crazy shit. He's an untraterful. He's excluded from any trade talk. Like, are you crazy? Who the fuck was he practiced in practice?
Starting point is 00:33:33 Man. Killing. Yeah, that's wild. Yeah, Don Levy. Yeah. It's a damn form. You just ain't getting what. The calls ain't, the calls are lying, too, and so.
Starting point is 00:33:43 I know, man. You just ain't going to be talking about my team. I know, man. You can talk about the Duke. Warriors. Yeah, I'm talking about the Duke shit. The Duke. The Duke, the Duke, L.M.
Starting point is 00:33:50 R and Trades in Langelland, all the niggas is in position doing shit. And fuck all those that smart shit. Like A.R.A.R.C. D. J.J. Reddy. All right. To Rich. Rich.
Starting point is 00:34:04 Pump and run, Dunleedy. That's my guy. That's my guy. That dude. That's my guy. That Duke one. That dude one. Fuck him.
Starting point is 00:34:11 It depends on which one come out. I can tell, trust me. I can tell which dude. Oh, that's that Duke, that Duke, that's that Duke Nick Rieske right there. Oh, that Mike Khrushchevsky, nigger right now. Oh, Mike, it's just. So let's talk about another situation.
Starting point is 00:34:27 Obviously, we heard Dunleavy say they want to try and retain Jimmy brother. There are some reports that they may be looking to try to come up off his contract. I think he has another 50 plus million due next season. Too late? Before the third that one. I understand. I understand it.
Starting point is 00:34:41 Almost. Is Jimmy Butler's injury the nail in the coffin for the Warriors dynasty or was that nail already inside coffin before that injury? What you just say? I know. I thought I called it too. It started with a D. Did you just say something about a D?
Starting point is 00:34:56 Yeah, it started with a D. I thought I called it. I thought I did. Did you just? It's a Dining? It's a fading? You said fading? Or fade did?
Starting point is 00:35:05 Fayed D. Did. DINIS? It's still a dynasty. They can come back, Gil. You said they can come back. They ain't won a championship. All right, next topic.
Starting point is 00:35:15 2022? No, no, no. But the dynasty was done. Yeah. Even now. The dynasty left. Yeah, when Katie left. Clayton left.
Starting point is 00:35:24 Clayton left. Clayton out there. It was a dynasty. The four made the dynasty because it was multiple. I don't need you all to convince me. I'm just saying when Katie left. I don't get a fuck. Do not play victim.
Starting point is 00:35:36 Do not play victim. Because I won't start a real thing. You have me pre-victin. I was just asking the question. That is the conversation going on. I mean, we had Kerr a couple weeks ago say basically they're a fading dynasty trying to hold on. Pading dynasty. They're not on the level of the OKCs in the San Antonio's first.
Starting point is 00:35:52 That's what we know that. We know that. That's where you got them word. Does somebody look up, you know, when Mike left and they died in, Phil Jackson left, I want to know if anybody wrote anything about a dynasty. Well, MJ was no longer there. I know, I know. They still got stealth.
Starting point is 00:36:11 They still got Steph Curry. I know. Thank you for big a still. They still got Steph and they won without KD too. All that shit. What is the dynasty? They got the main guy of the dynasty. I mean, I said, okay.
Starting point is 00:36:22 What is a dynasty? Step Curry. Multiple, right? Multiple. The multiple came with four. Yeah. Step number one, one. And then KD came and they won two.
Starting point is 00:36:35 And then KD left. And they won one. That's not a dynasty because they have multiple championships with these guys. But they got multiple championships. When one left, right, is no longer a dynasty. They are. The other, the three got to win three to be a dynasty. They only won two.
Starting point is 00:36:57 That guy is still, you know. Max. No, the guy is still there and winning. Yes. What do you consider a dynasty? So the dynamic, what do you consider a dynast? The Bulls, when Jordan and the people left and Jordan came back. He still won.
Starting point is 00:37:10 He's still a point. He's still Jordan. But what do you consider a dynasty? When Jordan, when Jordan left what? When Jordan left what? Steph is the dynasty. I didn't hear what you said. That stuff is the dynasty.
Starting point is 00:37:21 That's what I'm saying. Okay. As long as Steph there, you have a chance. Thank you, Swah. That's what he's trying to say. Wizard was a dynasty when Jordan was there. If he was on a bulls, they were to try. They won a championship?
Starting point is 00:37:34 They won't have a championship? Right? Did the wisdom win a championship? I'm trying to figure out what you're saying exactly. Steph is a dynasty, though. Oh, he's saying he's his own dynasty. So long as step is there, it's a dynasty. It's a dynasty. So what's been happening in the last four years?
Starting point is 00:37:56 That? Because the Lakers are the dynasty? That's nothing. What's the dynasty? He answered it. No one. A dynasty hunt. Right?
Starting point is 00:38:05 They were still trying. As long as you still trying. There is no action. As long as you can still find, you can be a dynasty. Yeah, you can one. There's no definition of a dynasty? I'm saying, you went 14 or seven years. You don't call that a dinosaur?
Starting point is 00:38:18 Yes. That's good. Yeah. Okay. You said, what happened? What happened? I didn't hear you. I didn't hear what you said.
Starting point is 00:38:26 This is the words. You heard, you heard it. The chat heard it took on. I didn't hear you. The problem with, the problem with you, the problem. There's no problem. There's, exquisite. There's four?
Starting point is 00:38:37 There's, there's. Four championships. How many players are left from that championship? Four rings. Two? It ain't no motherfucking dynasty team then. Two Hall of Fame. It's just two players on the team.
Starting point is 00:38:52 That's it. You have no chance for getting back. You can't use Dynasty if there's 17 players and there's just two left. The team is not a dynasty anymore. Stephen Draymond were a part of it. They're a part of the dynasty they had. They're the last of the dynasty. Trying to figure out how to get another.
Starting point is 00:39:16 Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, the last of a what? What are they? The last of the dynasty that was back in the day. Was. Was. Was. Like LeBron James is the last of a championship Laker. He's a dynamic.
Starting point is 00:39:31 Don't mean the motherfucker is the championship contenders at all. He's still there. He's the only one that's still there Not a coach Not a not a hona Nobody's there Hey coach still there though
Starting point is 00:39:44 And y'all going against what the damn Coach said the coach said we are not a dynasty We are dying Fading dynasty Fading he said they fade Just trying to stay relevant Faded It just ain't faded
Starting point is 00:39:55 Faded Faded They're trying to stay red You know like when you put The shirt in the wash machine Too many times And that motherfucker Fading Strait
Starting point is 00:40:05 It's not longer a black shirt no more. That bitch is great. It's ugly. Vintage. Vintage ass. But it's no longer the black shirt you had in the beginning. You can't even wear it with the jeans no more. There's a motherfucker's store in the mall that sell them beat-up ass shoes.
Starting point is 00:40:22 The ones that you go by and they already beat the fuck the hell. What's them joint? It looked like they've been worn and they just. But you know the Warriors still had hope? The Goodwill got some of his shit. And they closed Dallas, gentleman down, that's where Hope worked. Yep.
Starting point is 00:40:37 They closed those DGs down and that's where Hope worked. That's unfortunate. It was out there, too. That is unfortunate. Did they have a goodbye party? I don't know. I wasn't invited because Lord, I would have went. He worked for me?
Starting point is 00:40:49 Yeah. It's been over. That's fine. I mean, that's all I wanted to hear. As you know, they're praying all the words downfall again. They didn't want to see it happen like this, but. Like what? Take it over again.
Starting point is 00:41:01 I don't want Jimmy a Terry's AC. Well, not to tell his age. They wanted to get them ass with Farriswark. Yeah, why everybody put it on Jimmy, like Jimmy was a part of the new dynamic. They wasn't a wish with Jimmy Bullying that roster the way that she constructed. Most of still try to keep this team competitive, right, moving forward for the... They weren't competitive winning. It wasn't.
Starting point is 00:41:17 They wasn't doing shit out there. You see the line up that there was happening out there? That almost looked worse than the Lakers. Jimmy average a 19 in the last 12 games. Say it again? They were 93 in their last 12 games. Trying to climb out of what place? They were, I believe, eighth place.
Starting point is 00:41:29 Come on, man. Winning record in the Western Conference. Very tough. Very gritty. Okay. nasty way 21 and 19 winning the record
Starting point is 00:41:38 okay Josiah 25 uh they're 25 now now okay so they went on a winning street but jimmy was yeah they won't stop it they got a little four game got a four game winning street
Starting point is 00:41:48 gave a 150 yesterday to a very gritty raptors yeah gave up and up they tried to make that as like that was a reason to keep jk on the bench even more like we on the we can't play them together
Starting point is 00:42:01 yeah disrupt the soon as Jimmy go down They're talking about we're going to experiment with you been experimenting all year The bullshit man with Steve it's just his emotions Need his ass, what will Mike at when we need? Mike need you pay a visit show up just show what's up Steve Remember me
Starting point is 00:42:25 I'll see get him to show them they're gonna cost you 80 million We're paid that There's gonna be four Pick a boom what's up Penny Wise on his ass Alright, y'all got 30 minutes, make shit quick. Yeah, make it quick. Low management, love it again.
Starting point is 00:42:39 Hey, that niggas start. Give me some to K-Lil. He said he was getting made fun of about that at that free throw. He was like, yeah, you know what? I don't like this new internet. Yeah, that freestyle. And that free throw shook him, Jay. Man, I ain't doing that shit.
Starting point is 00:42:55 He did a damn show. He was on my kids. We were talking shit on this show. We definitely, I think we were part of it, absolutely. Well, y'all said, oh, this is. Dance, nigger, dance! Shoot that, motherfucker. You better make it.
Starting point is 00:43:09 You better make that shit. All day, too. You're not going to leave this. And J. was like, I don't need this shit. I ain't did this shit so long. I forgot how stressful this was. So we asked to chat, do you believe, Jimmy Butler's name? Who that nigger on that nad?
Starting point is 00:43:29 We asked to chat, do you believe, Jimmy Butler's injury, the final. Dono Nail in the coffin of the Warriors Dynasty, 57% of the chat said yes. We also asked the chat, do you still consider the Warriors Dynasty 83% said no. So they agree with you guys. Let's keep this thing moving. We will keep it in the Western Conference. Did y'all really expect that number to be any different than? We put these polls up, but no expectations, Kenyon.
Starting point is 00:43:51 We just, it's just a matter of checking the temperature with the chair. Jim and Nick was just saying the other shit, like, they are still a dynasty. I mean, you still have Steph. You want Steph to go on the right. No, right? This is, you know. Go out on what, right, no. Only what, man, hate his ass.
Starting point is 00:44:06 You can't get it. I want every all-time great to at least go out. You can't win. Trade's there for the mellow and make it a reunion. Not often. Send his ass to Charlotte. That's what I'm saying. That's what I'm saying.
Starting point is 00:44:19 What motherfuckers? Listen, we play until we can't walk. A fuckers going to play until they can't walk. You ain't winning at the end. Let some people care. you're across that motherfucker. Yeah. That's just what it is.
Starting point is 00:44:34 You need these young, hey, these young boys, man, and they ain't got none. The YMBA? What the one they got, they don't play him. So that's all. Right. It's a young person to lead that they haven't noticed. The good players are young and big, tall, and they ain't got neither one of them. He had 30s, 7.
Starting point is 00:44:59 About to be 38. In history, what star player was supposed to win at that age? As far as expected to win? Expected to win. Oh, by it. Besides just these last two. Yeah, that's it. That's it.
Starting point is 00:45:16 A testament to their greatness. Just these last two. Oh, yeah, as only you play, everybody else got to sit there and ride out. Ah, yeah. Carl, maybe. Because he's drawing a leg, like shit. Oh, yeah, Carl. But not as a star, though.
Starting point is 00:45:31 Only because he's drawing. on the Lakers team, that was it. Yeah, but now that's... If he would have stayed his ass in Utah, they would have been like, yeah, whatever. Yeah. Whatever, Nick. Huh?
Starting point is 00:45:40 He was 36. Who? Who? Who? Who? He was the oldest MVP, right? He was old as 90. But that wasn't in the window champion.
Starting point is 00:45:49 98? 137 years old. I don't know. That's crazy. That's crazy. So you get number one. Trades, Ramah.
Starting point is 00:46:01 You gotta get one of them. 35, I believe. You can't trade Raymond, bro. You can't trade Draymond Green. You can. You can't trade anybody, well. If you can trade Kaminga, you put them niggins in a package. They have to put them in a package.
Starting point is 00:46:14 Yes. Now, they didn't want Kamengel, right, at all. In the beginning? He makes more than Dreemann. So who's paying $20-something million to get what Draymond's going to give them? That's why he hasn't been going to. I'm saying, him and stuff can just write out.
Starting point is 00:46:30 Because what his value is to them? Are you gonna pay $20 million for Boston Celtics? Definitely to use J-Mond. For sure. For sure. Definitely. Definitely. And that'd be great for them.
Starting point is 00:46:46 Did y'all just become best? I can see that one. They don't have a true, hey, they agree twice. They don't have a true point guard. And they can let motherfuck-a-take Derek White off the ball, let the motherfuckers run around. Just pick and just pick it running. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:46:59 Stop, man. Maybe you'll say that shit, man. Brother, you know I'm going to shave it. All right, let's keep this thing in the Western Conference. Lakers and Nuggets met for the first time this season. Tuesday night in Denver.
Starting point is 00:47:16 Game was a part of the NBA's rivalry week slate and was the first of eight straight road games for the Purple and Gold who had lost five of their last six games before getting a win over the Raptors Sunday. Nuggets were still without MVP frontrunner Nicole Yolkich, along with Cam Johnson and Christian Brown.
Starting point is 00:47:32 The team going 7 to 4 without Joker entering the matchup behind an all-star worthy play from Jamal Murray. The Lakers were still without all-star worthy guard. Austin Reeves as well, though. Nuggets looked like they were on walk away with an easy win, but the Lakers had other plans. Let's take a look at the highlights if we can. Please, this game was on NBC and Peacock. The Nuggers were in control, the first half, jumping out to a 13-point lead in the first quarter. Luca did his best to keep the Lakers in the game.
Starting point is 00:47:59 He scored 16 points on 6-06 shooting in the first. frame. Chris Cross. But Jamal Murray did his thing as well, dropping 13 and 5 dimes in his first 10 minutes of action to help the Nuggets take a 9-point lead after the first quarter. Murray continued cooking in the second quarter as well. What is that? Score 26.
Starting point is 00:48:16 O.J. the juice, man. Of 28 points in the first half. Jamal Murray was just 1 of 5 from the field in the second half, though. Lakers lost the Andre Aden for the entire second half. After Aidan got poked in the eye, did not return. But the rest of the team rallied. We looked right here. What?
Starting point is 00:48:32 Ladies a gentleman. Oh. Oh, Lord. Yeah. Move on the third quarter. You run that for ever. Lakers went on a 15-4 run in the third quarter to get back in this game. It was looking bleaker than Memphis for a good portion.
Starting point is 00:48:51 But they started doing their things, rally behind. Started distributing the ball. Oh. Yeah. Look at, look at Slibernia, Jesus. That lose impact. Got re-up. Leger is close.
Starting point is 00:49:08 Yes! Down two points in the fourth quarter. Luca Messerang out dropped his fifth triple double this season. Luca had 38. Right there. All right is and all. Look at 38 points, 13 rebounds, 10 assists, 52nd career 30 point triple double.
Starting point is 00:49:21 Breaking a tie with him and Yolka for the second most in NBA history. Brown, 19, nine boards, eight dimes. Marcus Smart added 15 points. He had 19. He had 19. He had six from D. Marcus Mark is Mark. He's intelligent. A bench.
Starting point is 00:49:33 I got Marcus. Stupid. I like when he hit shots. So Lakers outscored Nuggets 58-36 in the second half get their second straight win over a team with a winning record. And they scored 36 points in the second hand? That's locked down defense, can you? Shut up.
Starting point is 00:49:54 You'd have been impressed. Or they just... Burping? Not doing that. Nuggets ain't so tough without Joker, Cam Johnson, and Christian Brown. Damn, that's a lot out. That's crazy. No, I'm just kidding.
Starting point is 00:50:09 A resident Lakers fan, you predicted a 2026 championship when Luca was first traded at you since. Slid away from that, but how impressed were you with the Lakers comeback win over the Nuggets in Denver, the altitude, first of an A-game road trip. They've been playing like, you do do lately. I don't know what's more impressive that we still have the same team that we started with.
Starting point is 00:50:42 I know there's a sign of trouble. How many games has been? How many games? How many games has been this season? Yeah. Y'all understand what I'm... 42? Forty-fourty-two.
Starting point is 00:50:54 Have you ever seen a starter? Subbed out, switched. You lose your starting position. 30-something games into the season, and your team is good. No, right? That seems Rudy's out Jake is in
Starting point is 00:51:13 Yeah Rue coming back from injury though I don't care I don't know I don't care He's a starter He's a starter He's a starter
Starting point is 00:51:21 He's black and these though Gil As you know Like those Those kind of tell you Like We're not that We're not like that yet We're not
Starting point is 00:51:31 So Do you think Austin Yeah because you're five Is you're five You think Austin contributes to whether Rui starts or not?
Starting point is 00:51:41 Because if Austin's back, do you play Rui more with that lineup with Austin and them? Because he compliments them better than Jake would. My start is my start. Yeah, my five is my five. You know what I mean? Think about it. If you got Rui coming off the bench
Starting point is 00:51:56 knowing that he's going to give you some firepower behind Jake, if he, whether he played good or not, without Austin, you got a backup plan. But if he's playing with Austin and them, you don't really depend on Jake no backup plan, you got a fire-ass five. But aren't they the same player?
Starting point is 00:52:12 Rui and Jake? I think Rui would play a little bit more defense. But ultimately they're the same player. They do the same shit. Yeah. They do the same. Go over there and stand and wait for the ball and come to you. Right?
Starting point is 00:52:29 Go over there and stand and wait for the ball to come to you. Yeah, Rudy. Like, I'm still confused on how we have this T. Like, Jake still gonna hit you get to it. Like, I look at our guards. Our off-the-bench guards are probably the worst guards in the NBA. Yeah. No way.
Starting point is 00:52:51 No way. No way? Man. The bandit's got two all-star votes. Well, we don't play. Deserving. He won't of the coach. We have the, for sure we got the smallest.
Starting point is 00:53:03 Six, what, six, two, six-three? As far as you're talking about Nick, Nick Smith, Gay, Gabe and Marks. And Marcos, yeah. And Bronny when he played. Yeah. That's our guards coming off the bench. Wings.
Starting point is 00:53:17 Wings. I'm about saying wings. Damn, them your wings. Mm. And we're supposed to... It's more than L.A. Because they was playing well. Gabe Vanson was playing well.
Starting point is 00:53:28 No, he's never, no, he's never... Before he got here. Oh, before he got to L.A. It should just be L.A. Yeah, we got tricks. Kendrick Nunn was the same way. He was playing well. He was that he that started balling the game.
Starting point is 00:53:38 No. I don't know what they're selling over in Miami, but right here, you need plastic. I'm right. That's why you need to live. You need plastic survive over here. That's like you don't like Miami. They sit in the players over here. And he was cheering so good.
Starting point is 00:53:52 He was cheering too. Soon as he got game, he said, God's been right. We got game. For you to go undraft and get NBA minutes, you're playing well. Like, that's just the nature of it. Yeah. He went undrafted. So for you to get NBA minutes, does not stretch.
Starting point is 00:54:09 he went undrafted, right? Yeah. For you to be on NBA floor and playing in the finals with Miami, you fucking, you're, you're, you're, you're, you're, yeah, you saw it. So technically. Now y'all feel, they put the muff,

Starting point is 00:56:15 We got sold some bullshit, okay? We didn't know, sir. You just don't get here and forget how to play basketball. Or you just never know how to play basketball. You know how to play basketball. Maybe he's just good in that system. And that Miami system. What we do is prison-style basketball.

Starting point is 01:00:25 And you can give me your phone. Is this a 17 pro? This is 17 pro. Yeah. Yeah. Hold up to you. Give it a candy with it, though. I'd rather, hey, I'd rather buy that candy.
Starting point is 01:00:35 They can be doing anything else. You got to get a cat. I'm going to pay for the candy. Come on. Give me a free bucks in here, man. You're not like an apple. You're not thinking. They sell the order.
Starting point is 01:00:45 They sell a candy. They can be in your house for real. I ain't got. I ain't got big. I just give them 20 to keep. I just give them 20 to keep the candy. Be good, man. It's hard out here.
Starting point is 01:01:00 We're going on your wrinkles. I get you back on the next one. Right. Give me back on the next. They'd be at the target over here, but then they'd be like, I watch Gil's Arena though. I get him the 20-7-thous-out-trouble. Hey, just keep doing this right here.
Starting point is 01:01:13 Go rob them. Hey, I'll be seeing you on the show too. I'll be like, you know what, little nigger? I'm not fucking with you. I'm not fucking with you. Hey, man, you need to keep talking that shit on the show, man. What the hell? You ain't supposed to have no TV, man.
Starting point is 01:01:27 Oh, man. Selling candy. You can't supposed to have a TV. You're not a TV. Selling candy and watching. Selling Candy and watching Gills Arena. A traditional like going to fooling you. But Keny, obviously, you've been very critical of the Lakers in previous time going against these nuggets.
Starting point is 01:01:43 Yeah, they were Missy Joker. Minor loss. We didn't have Austin Reeves. That's a different. That's a different. That's a different. Both all-star level. Y'all are fucking that whole game mode of the whole time.
Starting point is 01:01:54 We're not, okay. We're pushing narratives right now. It's a Lakers shit. You're going to talk about how LeBron. This shit. You're not going to talk about how LeBron's out there dunking on motherfucking shit, though, with arthritis. The sciatitis. The sciatitis.
Starting point is 01:02:14 Oh, no. And he ain't missed no back to back. Like I said, he's going to play all the back to backs. Ain't another back to back till March, this nigga's going to make sure he hit this dress. He's not going to miss no more game. They have a. He didn't have no sciaticus since, huh? Yeah.
Starting point is 01:02:27 He went up. He took 14 games on good. Well. All right. All right. Everything fine. Keep your elbows straight, nigga. Yeah, nigga.
Starting point is 01:02:39 Mm-hmm. No aggravation, no nothing. God, that's sciatic. Layers, no, nothing, huh? Nothing. Lakers do have a brutal stretch, that's away. H.R.R. Games, they are back against the Clippers,
Starting point is 01:02:49 but they play every other day, I believe. Because the Grammy. Pretty much of it. I looked at these. Yeah. It was the next back to back, right, is the Spurs Thunder, if I'm not mistaken. May 13th.
Starting point is 01:03:00 March. Spurs, Thunder. No, I think before. Before the break. Tonyo joint. They got a home back to back with the Spurs and Thunder. It's a nice fuck you before the All-Star break. Wow.
Starting point is 01:03:11 After the eight-game road trip? I believe, yeah, after that road trip. Damn. Hey, welcome on. Mm-hmm. But LeBron has a good start, though. Thank you, Kay. It's really.
Starting point is 01:03:23 Not, a good comeback win on the road. That's a good start to your road trip. Because if the Lakers would have lost, we still would have talked about the game. Yeah, that's good. No, it's a good. But yeah, eight games. It's a nice road trip.
Starting point is 01:03:37 They shut down. They shut down. They shut down. They're all. Yeah, so ain't no back to backs. They all right. Yeah, so JJ Redick did report that Austin Reeves should come back at some point.
Starting point is 01:03:46 I mean, he says, you know, he's already the rules ineligible. What they own for real, where they put Austin and how he plays. You're gonna play the same way he's been playing with all of them out there. Average in 20. I thought it was like 17. Yeah, with all. He's averaging. What he's talking about?
Starting point is 01:04:04 With Bronon and what's the name? He's the only averaging 20. You don't know what I'm saying? Those numbers have come down from the 27 he's averaging. No, no, no, from the 33. When LeBron got there, but when LeBron was gone, since him, LeBron, and Luke have been playing together, he's averaging 20 points a game.
Starting point is 01:04:19 Third option. Undrafted. The third option. 240? Woof. Move around, man. Move around, man. You know, to hold on to that 26 as long as possible.
Starting point is 01:04:34 bro. Sit out. Oh, hey, man. My phone games. Hey, I said it. I said it. I said, you need to sit there. You're fucking up my average, man.
Starting point is 01:04:46 Don't think about it. Like, if you was averaging 33 at one point and then you finished the season with 21, it don't look good. No. That don't look good for going in a free agency. Asking for 24, they're going to be like, 95.
Starting point is 01:05:01 You did the same shit last. Damn. It's had a harder start. Damn. Are we expected the Lakers to make a move before the deadline? Yeah. And if that move going to help Austin or hurt Austin, that's the question. We don't talk about the two points.
Starting point is 01:05:17 We don't know. Depends on where you were saying that it's going to hurt him if they don't move off Brian and he stays at a number three when he's supposed to be the number two. If that happens and they keep that core together, they don't move, Brian, they don't make pieces. What's going to happen with him? starting five not the issue. It's the bench. No, it's the bench.
Starting point is 01:05:37 I'm saying the starting five not the issue. Austin Reed is Ruy. It's not the issue. Starting five not the issue. It's when they start fucking subbing. I got a sub. Now, yeah. The nigs can't play all.
Starting point is 01:05:47 Not Brian. Luca and Austin on the floor at the same time. They're not an efficient court. Yeah. They're not, with them three and with Rui and or whoever you want to, eight and eight and at the five for sure, whoever you want to stick in at the other, at the three or the four.
Starting point is 01:06:04 whatever, there's Brian the three or the four, I don't know at this point. Wherever you want to stick in that position, that five is okay. That five can get you in the playoffs. That five can do some butt. Ruy, sir, Rui Aton, Austin, Brian, and Luke get you in the ball. That five is a, no. Jackson Hayes, that's good. Hell yeah.
Starting point is 01:06:23 Jake on the side. Yeah, but you need somebody. Van Doe, you need somebody. You need somebody to throw Van Doe. You need to throw Van Doe. Think about that. With Mark's Mark. Mark's Mark.
Starting point is 01:06:34 With us coming off the bench, look what we're coming off the bench with. Yeah, Vando Marcus. Vardt. Vannold. Jacks. Jake. Jackson Hades. Jackson Hades.
Starting point is 01:06:43 Which, you need a back-up five. A little shit. Gabe Vinson. Or Nix. That's what we're coming off the bench with. That's nasty. Nah. That's not a no way.
Starting point is 01:06:50 But it's solid. No, that's not a solid. And with the first three and one of the guys that you, with one of your top three guys is 40-1 years old. But all five of them not coming in together. They're not going five on five. They keep him. Luca going to stay in, Brian. One of the other guys going to stay in with the second unit.
Starting point is 01:07:11 Now you win this. For sure. It's all you. But you have to deal with. That's what JJ did last year was he up their volume in the playoffs, which fucked them up down the line. Because he had to play them because he felt like he had no bench. He didn't suck. That was a grave mistake.
Starting point is 01:07:25 You ain't making no change. Nick Smith. Nick Smith plays 13 minutes a game. He averages six, right? Gabe Vincent averages 20, 20 minutes a game. He averages five. Vanderbilt 20 minutes a game, 4.8. Dalton, 12, 4.8.
Starting point is 01:07:52 I mean, he's shots. 20 points, 5 for 12 minutes, 5 points, and 12 minutes. 20 minutes, five points, that ain't nuts. Yeah, that bench. We got to get that. The bench is that. We don't have no points. We don't have no points.
Starting point is 01:08:01 Five issue with that. Especially when you get Austin back. And he's playing that left for his able? Like what is a six man? You know, like everyone got a six man? Like this man by the coming in and get us. They don't got no season. We don't need this man.
Starting point is 01:08:14 Yeah, we do, it. Like everybody needs a six. Yo, to compete that West, man, you need a- Everybody needs a three. You all three is never going to be on a big. You need an X factor. You need an X factor that's coming in and you don't know whether he can get him, boom, boom, boom.
Starting point is 01:08:28 So you need somebody that's going to come in and give you 17 a night like you that's often. That's off the reason. He's the part of the big three. Everyone has a big three or big four and a six man. Everybody. That type of big three and a fucking six man. Okay, see.
Starting point is 01:08:48 Okay, see. They got LeBron. Houston, you have Spurs now. You have, shit, Boston, you have with Pritcher. Pritcher starts now. But now I'm talking about. I'm out with you got Simon's too. Boston with the bench.
Starting point is 01:09:04 Then you have, shit, who was over there? Not New York. Indiana, when they started five, you had their guy coming off the bench getting work. Martin. You put Jordan. You had Matthew and you had, TJ. You put Jordan Clarkson in that role. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:09:20 One out of time. Say it again? But again. I didn't get like how many. Leigh, Leavre, Lue, A.R. and Lucas. Yeah. Bring him. So you playing the Brian back in.
Starting point is 01:09:29 That's a playoff. That's a playoff rotation. That's a playoff rotation. That's what they've been doing, right? That's what they've been doing. We got to get to the playoffs first. Like I said, and the guy 41, so you can't play him 42 a night. But you're not.
Starting point is 01:09:43 In order to get where you're trying to get to, that's why you need the bench. Like, that's where the bench comes into play. You can fools goal it right now. Nause reed. Nogh average of 15 off the bench. They can win a bunch of games right now that they're supposed to win. And they can even lose the games they're not supposed to win. and still be in contention.
Starting point is 01:10:04 But I feel like a lot of teams around the league, right? Yeah, for sure. A lot of teams get that stretch of just... But the Lakers are the one team that we feel like as a talent, y'all should be winning more... Tim Hardaway, Jr.? That you're not... You're winning the games that you should post...
Starting point is 01:10:18 Like, this Denver team. You're supposed to beat them. They're down and out. They're trying to get their shit together. You're not supposed to lose to the Kings. You're not supposed to lose to Charlotte. You're not supposed to lose them games. But, I mean, Charlotte...
Starting point is 01:10:31 They don't know... They want to come up and they can play. Okay. But we're talking about the Lakers as a roster. I'm supposed to win them games. But no, no, no, no, no. We're not that good. Don't do that.
Starting point is 01:10:41 Y'all got to play without. You know, we just set our roster. I know the Lakers got to play without worry about the fact. So we're making a trade. We need to get more athletic. They have to. And Alston Reeves. I'm sorry.
Starting point is 01:10:53 That's what they want. Alson Reeves is the most important person to the Lakers' future. He's the biggest asset that people, want. If you really want this, that means you're going to over give us for us. And that's what we're hoping for because if you pay him to 240, you get set back probably 10 years. His contract plus rebuilding because there's nobody on in this league that's going to give you
Starting point is 01:11:22 240 is a second option. That person's probably made an all-star or two or an all-NBA team. and no one is trading that for Austin Reeves. I'm not giving you Jalen Brown for Austin Reeves. I'm not giving you cats for Austin Reeves, right? I'm not giving you Julius Randall for Austin Reeves. It's just, that's not. His upside is just more.
Starting point is 01:11:48 It's like Denny Avia, Josh Giddy type. Like Josh Giddy's a lot of, Denny Obia, $100 million. You say he'll have a team. You think he's $140 billion better than him? I mean, like a giddy now. He's $140 million. That's what I'm saying. He was paid.
Starting point is 01:12:05 That's what they were offering him. They were offering them that four-year 100. 240 for 400? You put Josh Giddy on the Lakers. He's not giving you. He's not touching the ball. He's not touching the ball. He's going to be running the secondary point.
Starting point is 01:12:20 It's going to be him and Luke is running secondary point. They're running the same thing. You don't think he'll be anything like that. He will be killing. Josh Giddy does. Or that Austin Reeve does as far as rebounding and passing the ball. It does the exact same thing. Same as second.
Starting point is 01:12:34 He doesn't hold it as much. He don't hold the ball. Because he don't shoot it as well. He don't shoot it as well. So you have two of them. It a clash. And I'm like clashes. It's because I have a dominant ball handler.
Starting point is 01:12:50 You're secondary, but you can't shoot the ball. So you need the ball. You're doing the same thing she's doing. So you need the ball. You need to do this. And then give it this. No, but he's not doing the same thing. Okay.
Starting point is 01:12:59 Because Shay's not passing that bitch and rebounding that bitch like Giddy. He just getting that bitch on the break and he's making shit happen to the nation. That's the thing. He needs to be in Golden State. But when he went to Chicago, we've seen this, this elevation. Yeah, yeah, no, no, he's elevated. So I like that. But I like that too.
Starting point is 01:13:17 I like that to go to state. But he's a hundred million. Milwaukee. So think about, hell yeah, we can use him. Think about Austin. Four year, 260. Damn, they're, like, he's a 60 million dollars. So that means if they ever try to trade him, it's for Janus, big time,
Starting point is 01:13:37 it's for Luca, it's for, like, you're not getting that. Tyrese Maxie. Yeah, but that's expected. Not even Tyrese maxi. Yeah, yeah. That's why the Lakers got to figure that out of the Star-Lina. That's not what they're going to do. Do you think he can elevate his play more than what it is now?
Starting point is 01:13:52 If you don't see more outside of Austin, you don't give him 40. You don't. With what? You have a 30. With any team, like, if you don't see him elevate his games to go more than what we've seen this year, we've seen him at 30. And we think that he can get better and become a maxi and he can become on their level. I don't think he's number one. No.
Starting point is 01:14:13 I don't think that. You don't pay him at Lakers. He's not. You don't pay him. No. But I'm saying if you got him next to Luca, he can actually elevate his game to hide that tier level behind Luca. He can actually be like, I'm worth the second. I'm Scottie Pippin.
Starting point is 01:14:29 That's what... Next to door. I'm Scotty. I'm Scott. I'm Scott. I'm going to be better than Kirkman. But the money's available to pay him that. The money's there because they, the broadcast and seal him all that.
Starting point is 01:14:40 So what I'm saying is, if you pay him that, the franchise is, is handicapped. It's been handicapped for the last five years. You can never go out and get a superstar. Like a Joker or one of those. Because no one is going to give you Joker who's making $54 million for Austin Reeve, who's making $60 million. That's what I'm saying. We got a look.
Starting point is 01:15:00 Looka dough. Listen to what I'm saying before you respond. Luca makes $54 million. Austin Reeves makes $60 million. You can never trade Austin Reeves for Luca. No one's doing that. Four in D. They're not going to.
Starting point is 01:15:18 I'm not going to pay. You make more than every superstar in the NBA. We're trying to pay. But you're not a superstar. That's true superstar. That's true. I'm not trading. That's a great point because AD was the number two.
Starting point is 01:15:32 But he was a max guy once. He's a max guy once. He was a all-star. He was an all-N-B-A. He was a defense of a player to year. Name me Austin Reeves stats. Go. Any accolades?
Starting point is 01:15:45 No. But I got to trade him for Yonis, and I'm that dumb. Hey, I got this guy, Austin Reeves. Here, give me your MVP two times. Your final was MVP two times. And I'm gonna give you... He showed it. He showed it.
Starting point is 01:15:59 And the beginning of his Lakers season, everybody was saying pay the motherfucker. Now that LeBron back and his stats went down... You're saying, okay. Don't get... They didn't say how much, though. Man, whining the tape. Yeah?
Starting point is 01:16:11 And I said, hell, we were saying no. How much you would say no? Yeah, per year. Nah, damn. Now it's no pay the motherfucker. Paying... Pay you.
Starting point is 01:16:20 You have to pay him per year. That's what the Lakers got to figure out now. What are you good with paying Austin Reeves? Not more than... 4550. 45.50. Not more than Luca. Not more than Luca.
Starting point is 01:16:34 I'm not paying him more than Luca. So you're paying him 50? 45. 45. 45. I'm comfortable with 45. I'm comfortable with 45. I don't think... If he's playing number two, only behind Luca.
Starting point is 01:16:48 I'm only getting him number two behind Luca. Yoke is anywhere else he's playing number one. You want to pay us? Reeves. Yokes makes 54. I like the Lakers. Yokish makes 54. Yokic makes 54.
Starting point is 01:17:04 I like the Lakers first 15 games. I know, I'm just saying. Even if he plays the rest of the season, Yokis makes 54. Average in 33. Average in 33, yes, I would pay him that. You think the Lakers won a championship with Austin Reeves that's the number two?
Starting point is 01:17:17 Now, do you change in that? No, no, no, no. If you pay him that money, then he's going to have to be there. It's an expectation for us to win a championship. if we pay you this money. So Austin Reeves, the way he plays, you think paying him $2.40, the Lakers are going to win a championship
Starting point is 01:17:31 with him as a number two. It's going to be expected. That's not going to happen. That's not going to happen. It's expected. That's not going to happen. They're going to get rid of it now. They're going to get rid of it.
Starting point is 01:17:44 That shit looks crazy. He's making 14 this year. That shit looked crazy. Bro. I was like, I was like, oh, I was out there bawling right now. Here's the other side. I see, it's all in right in.
Starting point is 01:17:55 Game winners and everything. Now, I see why a lot of players go on to free agency looking for one number and then they got to sign that one-year deal. The expectation is too high. They don't realize what their game is compared to the field. Some games don't get paid. Your game dictates how you get paid too. But ain't in your system?
Starting point is 01:18:17 The system you go to dictate how much you get paid to? If I go to a place I know I'm going to get this brick. And he's going, like, Austin Reed's going to Utah with Keontay George. Mm-hmm. Bread. Bread. And I'm going to be bawling. And I can bring us back to the playoffs and got Caswell Walker down there.
Starting point is 01:18:37 I got motherfuckers that can give me the ball and move. And I got a point guard that can hoop. He's leaving. Keontay? No. Who? He goes. He's gone.
Starting point is 01:18:46 Steve Kerrilla. He's going. Then in Pam, Blasher, he's gone. Yeah. He's out this year. We got to qualify. I'm just saying this. You still have a big white mug.
Starting point is 01:18:55 If you're paying $2.40 for Austin Reeves. And then everybody. Just be like this. I'm gonna say, hey, son, you got a shoe, rebound, steel, start the car, start the bus. It's all on you. This is not a team. 240?
Starting point is 01:19:14 It's you. Sell the builder now. I can't. Austin Reed can sell. And all the reason is saying some shit, man. He can sell Utah. He can sell Utah. He definitely sell.
Starting point is 01:19:22 for sure. Renee the Lakers sent them to Utah. Shit. But does have a player option this summer, so it does have some power in the city. Wait, hold on, hold on. Gordon, Wade, Jr. Hold on, y'all are kind of racist.
Starting point is 01:19:37 That's my point. He does have, he has levered, but now if he wants to get that bread is a potential sign of trade, the Lakers give it to him, that would remain to be seen. Y'allah, listen, the best players,
Starting point is 01:19:49 whenever Utah was popping, carb alone, Booz and Dan Williams. John Stockton. Donovan Mitchell. Jeff Hornetton. John Stockton. Jeff Horning.
Starting point is 01:20:05 John Stockton. John Stockton. What kind of shoes he had? The shoe of confidence. It was called. Was Spalden? He had the Converse? He had the Spalding.
Starting point is 01:20:12 He had the basketball. He had the big basketball in the back. Yeah, Spaldon. I knew the mailman had the signature. I knew the mailman. I knew he was getting the ball by John Stockton. I got the ball in the back. He was getting the ball by John Stockton.
Starting point is 01:20:25 He had APEC. I think Oster Tag has some shoes. Oster Tag has some shoes. For so. Byron Russell has some shoes. Be Russ had some shoes. Yeah, you got them da-d-dhas. Spinner, which is a hitter.
Starting point is 01:20:39 The next. The Supreme. Listen, you know, I know you laughed at the people who were the Dibodil. That's where everyone. You're sitting there like. You're all right.
Starting point is 01:20:49 Sitting on the bitch like this. The bird was out there hoping in the front of the free throw line. Like, looking down, niggins. The feet on the feet on the feet of line. Traveling without moving. Oh, really. Shoot. All right, well, let's keep this thing moving.
Starting point is 01:20:59 Talk about one other aspect of the Lakers. So as we mentioned on Tuesday, LeBron was not named an All-Star Game starter for the first time since 2005, snapping his NBA record streak of being selected at the starter in 21 straight All-Star Games. So after the Lakers went over the Nuggets,
Starting point is 01:21:13 Brown was asked if he wants to be selected as a reserve this year had this response. I'm always grateful. I'm always grateful for sure. If I'm there, I'll be there in attendance. If I'm not, I know I'll be able to take full advantage of it and I know exactly what I'll be doing. So I'm good either way.
Starting point is 01:21:30 Do you think LeBron actually wants to play in this all-star game? Yes. He said play or select it? Selected. Be selected, right? Selected, yes. Selected, yes. What was his words?
Starting point is 01:21:47 Yes, be selected. Yeah. In attendance. I'll be in attendance. It is not saying, I will be playing in this shit. I will be there. I'll be watching. Be watching again.
Starting point is 01:22:00 Y'all be loboes. You're going to be watching. Y'all got to listen to the words. He'll be on the golf course. That's what he going to do that anyway. He's about to get selected and be on the golf course. I mean, there is a golf tournament. They got a game that day.
Starting point is 01:22:16 You got a game that day. Mr. B., that is trying. But I'm just letting you know. That doesn't be much. All right, but, I mean, you're 23, so that I give you guys the thought that he's not done. Did you, huh?
Starting point is 01:22:32 What you just said again? Yeah. He's going to continue playing beyond the season. Did you? That, but the All-Star game got. Is that the question, Josiah for us? Yeah, you get him, Ken you. Do you not?
Starting point is 01:22:44 I'm not honest. Do you, like, in your Lakers' heart of hearts, do you think that this is LeBron James' last season playing basketball? As a fan, Joe, be honest. No, I'm a fan of nothing now, Rochard. I'm a fan. Come on, Joe, you get the check. Come on, Joe.
Starting point is 01:22:59 How are you saying? How many more years you got? What, Joe? Clutch checks have dried up, Gil, unfortunately. Unfortunately. Damn. Damn. He said, dang.
Starting point is 01:23:09 Understand. That man, playing at least two more years. But obviously, we've had Norris Cole on this couch before he said he could go either way. You see, Brian wanted to do the whole retirement until you got to see Brian just saying, fucking I'm just going to go to the golf course. It ain't going to be this year. Okay. Definitely not to be this year.
Starting point is 01:23:24 You can get to thought that shit out your brain. Yeah. He got one more year. thing. Yeah. He'll definitely be, you know, one more. I'm sure he wants to be selected. Yeah, one more plan. And he is going to announce that this is his last playing basketball. That's insane. You said, I can't see him was walking on.
Starting point is 01:23:39 Are you going back to another team or he's going to a new team? Back. All right. He got in there. He's going to. He's going back to Cleveland. Yeah. Hell no. With that team, yeah, that's still winning.
Starting point is 01:23:51 They have a chance. So we asked to chat with the Bronn play the All-Star appointed with his wife and kids. He's happy in this son. He ain't going back to that snow. He did that when he was young. Well, Jenny Buss said she almost put his ass with the clippers. And her ass got put up.
Starting point is 01:24:04 A report today from back to her ass. Where her ass is that? I'm about to her ass got put out of shit. We're at. Power move. Reverse Uno card. She was out here. She was like, yeah, I'm about to send him to Clipper.
Starting point is 01:24:18 Imagine. You can't win. Let's go on over here. Come by this team. Get this bitch out of here. Go and give her a million. Go on. The ESPN article from Baxter Hall
Starting point is 01:24:28 We're feeling that. During interviews like she's been lying from caves over because she's skinned her brother. They put some restraint on her on my brothers. It was after me. It's crazy. So, report today. Push her out the business. She's like, I got some for y'all.
Starting point is 01:24:43 Report today by Baxter Home for ESPN, amongst other things, Jeannie grumbled about LeBron's oversized ego. Felt that Clutch had too much control within the Lakers organization. Didn't like how LeBron was considered a savior when he came to the team and saved them. Did she say this?
Starting point is 01:25:04 She said it. Or is this, or is this, do we see her hearing her saying this or this is somebody close to her? Baxter Holmes, so look. How do women operate, Gil? How do women operate and they don't get what they won't? They start saying shit after the fact. Because it can be one of the brothers too. That's what I'm saying.
Starting point is 01:25:24 So after the trade went down back on November, Basically just fired everybody else in the family. See y'all later. I'm gonna hold it down. Yeah, this is what Jenny said. The damn shame, man. Pops passed and they're losing their damn mind. She said, I'm gonna tell the whole damn story.
Starting point is 01:25:38 Yeah, but when he passed, I think a contingent of him wanted to sell the team at that point. Like their movie TV show, Mother's Succession. Yeah. Right? It's like the session right there. It is crazy. What happened at the end? Jenny, she's, that's Jenny.
Starting point is 01:25:51 Yes. I'm going to fuck y'all up. Y'all up. I'm going to fuck me up. I'm fucking up. I mean, I know it's $10 billion, but for the family legacy, like, Like you just so now it's no more bus legacy ever with the yeah what like like this should have been on date line What do you mean the bus the buses will always be I think they still have about like 10 12 percent

Nothing. So they retain, they retain around 15 to 18% minority.
Starting point is 01:26:32 I was about to say, bro, you just get away. But for 10 Bill, everybody got their bread broken. Yeah, and Bill. So y'all got fire, but here's your bread.

Starting point is 01:27:26 We didn't see it at all. We don't see it at all, and we're like, you know what? This is one of those episodes. And we will understand. Swimming accident, like, Mark Walter... David Seed. The nigga is the Navy Seale. He was already on the bottom of the ocean with the sharks.
Starting point is 01:27:44 Had choked and that? It must have been an octopus. It must have been. They got him. We finally got him. Jenny. We got him. Oh, he's James.
Starting point is 01:27:55 We are bad, Joe. But, no, not good. This is why I love the show. It's why I show up to work every single day. Smile on my face. Oh, Lord. Even though somebody keeps eating all the bacon and sausages every morning. Shout out the rest of the book, man.
Starting point is 01:28:07 Take an appropriate share, can you? Shout out the mouth. You see some. You see, that's what I'm saying. When I walked in, it was three pieces. Disproportionated amount. Save some for the big fella, but. Or y'all can just eat when y'all at home.
Starting point is 01:28:20 Oh. This starts at 1130. Eat your ass when you wake up. What time you think breakfast goes too good? It go to 1130. It goes right to the food, right to 1130. That's supposed to be lunch. No, lunch always sufficient.
Starting point is 01:28:39 I'm here by 10.30. Breakfast is probably, you know why it's not enough? It's not enough for y'all because they didn't show up at 9.9.30 is for them. Yes. I understand. Save a sausage. Somebody can hide. Ten pieces of sausage.
Starting point is 01:28:55 Does that look like that's for y'all? No, no way. At least being about, about, yeah, when I walked in, I said it was three pieces of bags. How many of sausage are you doing? About three or four? How many? That's what I, but no, take the appropriate amount, take two.
Starting point is 01:29:06 Come on, Nick. No, they're talking about sausage. Stop, Nick. I'm about sausage to bring you. Y'all ate all the sausage? All of you, huh? Right, four. You had three, three pieces of sauces, huh?
Starting point is 01:29:19 Some china chips, man. You're giving that shit in some. serve the sausages. They're trying to try to try to something for them. I'm gonna get it on time. Hey, what's that floor in shot? It was a D, uh, 1F?
Starting point is 01:29:38 1F. One F? Where at? CCTV, what's it? I'm gonna make it early for some songs. You know about one Furn? Make sure y'all make it early for the sloshes. To the KTVs.
Starting point is 01:29:50 Yeah, the KTVs. KTVs. Geez, man. Every week. Let's keep this thing moving. Back to basketball conversation. So Monday, Wembe became the first match player to be named an NBA All-Star Game Star Starter, be a second straight appearance in the game.
Starting point is 01:30:06 And the one thing we know about the alien is that he takes pride in being a competitor. You may recall during the 2025 All-Star Weekend. Kenyon, we were there. We were in the building. No, no. No. He was in a hotel room at the airport leaving. All-Star Weekend.
Starting point is 01:30:20 Oh. The weekend. We dipped on Sunday. Yeah, yeah, last year. But Wimby and CP3 were so thirsty to win the skills challenge they attempted to cheat were eventually disqualified. So during a press conference Monday, Wemby was asked about this year's USA versus the world format had this to say. He said, I want to push the great players of this sport to play in the All-Star game just as hard as I will. We'll see how it goes.
Starting point is 01:30:46 But if they don't play hard, I'll do it without them. I love this. Good luck. The respect Wemby for wanting to push other stars to play hard in the All-Star game. Yep. I have just a small suggestion for him, right? Go back and watch number 34 that playing Milwaukee in the All-Star game. The guy that plays that now.
Starting point is 01:31:14 He ain't inspired the motherfuckers to play hard yet. And he play hard at the time he step out there. So good luck. But now that's two. Now there's two of us. They were still in the same team. And they're playing on the same team. Because I wasn't here yesterday when y'all was talking to all that shit.
Starting point is 01:31:31 They play on the same team. So you were missed. I was not here yesterday when y'all was talking to shit yesterday. You know what I'm saying? They play on the same team. They play on the same team. The international guys. He said that shit like that.
Starting point is 01:31:42 They don't make us work harder, huh? He said that shit last year too. They changed the format, right? They changed the format, right? Why they changed the format? Because international players are taking, This shit, the only international players work a lot. Let's talk about the game itself.
Starting point is 01:31:58 Let's do that. Why would you change the format in the game? Why would you change the format if the players from the original format are making it exciting, entertaining, and they're not. Larry Berg came in our locker room. Hey, guys.
Starting point is 01:32:16 Come on now. We need y'all motherfuckers to start playing. Come on, let's get back to what we know. Let's compete. Let's make it competitive. Let's do this. All right, y'all still not going to listen. All right, cool.
Starting point is 01:32:26 So let's bring this international format in here. Let's let these guys come in here and see if they can push us because it's kind of insulting to see the world versus the U.S. on this type of format and them outplay us. That's going to be a little bit insulting. Especially during the winter Olympics. Can I ask you something? To have an exciting game at All-Star Weekend,
Starting point is 01:32:51 the Americans have to be thrown. threatened as a group, right, for me to take this challenge. Now, here's the problem. Can you name the starters for the American team? Do you want me to name the All-Star starters? All-Star starters. Name all the U.S. players. The U.S. starters.
Starting point is 01:33:14 The West and East. Yeah, U.S. starters. Steph. Before we do that. Guard. Maxi. Before we do that, Gang. Brown.
Starting point is 01:33:20 Guard. Brunson Guard Cade Guard That's who y'all Decided to Okay
Starting point is 01:33:29 That's the five All-Star starters There will be two American starters So there will be two American Starters So you got Five guards
Starting point is 01:33:35 Right Diluting the American Talent Five guards What are they Proving to Can you name the Euros guys
Starting point is 01:33:44 You got What Yan is Winby What five Are competing with Wemby Yokic Yonis
Starting point is 01:33:50 That's not their position for me to go out there and do what? What am I doing? This is not under my position for me to compete. This is a narrative that has nothing to do with reality. The Eurobeaks is tear it up American bigs. Cool. But I'm like guard. What are I supposed to go out there and guard and guard Yolkits?
Starting point is 01:34:16 And say, ooh, I stop Yokish. I'm better. No, that has nothing to do it. Where does Steph go to do? When did the All-Star game become a playoff game? What I'm saying is this is not our, this is not men versus men. We're not even the same position for me even to compete with you. You're not going to be guarding me at the three-point line, me shaking and baking.
Starting point is 01:34:31 And if I do shake you and bake you, no one's going to say, oh, my God, you're better than Yokich now. Okay, but what you said is, you said, Steph goes out there and he's doing Steph, shooting that bitch from wherever he's shooting from. Who the fuck guard stuff? We don't know he's running around. Steph don't need nobody doing nothing during the All-Star game because Steph is just going. don't shoot that bitch. It don't matter who's guarding Steph.
Starting point is 01:34:53 You're rolling the ball out, right? It don't matter in the All-Star game for the last 10 years. It's been rolled the ball out. We're playing against y'all. We ain't going to give a fuck who playing defense. We're just shooting the bitch. We're just putting on the show. Dane versus Steph, when they were shooting from half court,
Starting point is 01:35:06 all that bullshit. Remember. That's an all-star game. That wasn't a match-up from position. Nobody gave a fuck about the positions then. So what is the point of giving a fuck now? Yes, we got our Euros and our international guys. There's rolling out.
Starting point is 01:35:20 These are our five. These are y'all five. Y'all got five more in the back. Y'all better sub right because we're here to beat y'all at. All right. So what does Navy get hurt? Can you name me one player in the All-Star game that says, yeah, we care to play against them and we care about the Americans? Yes.
Starting point is 01:35:35 We don't care. Zero. We don't, we don't know. Has any year old are a game? You know what? This is what we're going to do. The one year, the one year old is that said is Winnie. Can I ask?
Starting point is 01:35:44 He came out and said, listen, I'm going to push to make y'all. My fuck somebody. He said that last year. This is Wimby's team from last year, just so we can see how great his team was. It was Wembe, Sangoon, Wow. Shane, Janice, Yokic. Does that sound like the same motherfucking team you got down?
Starting point is 01:36:07 Who else was on the team, Joe? How hard did they play last year? Who else was on the team? You had Americans on the team, too. How hard did they play last year? Those guys, want to say their name is again? How hard did Yokic play
Starting point is 01:36:22 Janus play Shea Winby Sangoon Pascal How hard did that European team
Starting point is 01:36:33 Did they Because they tried it See that's the problem They tried it But you wasn't paying attention How hard did that group Go out there and perform You're asking the wrong question
Starting point is 01:36:42 No I'm asking the right question The right question is how hard did the fucking Americans play MVP He won't want to MVP. No, no, no. I asked you what. American's one. Who was playing hard.
Starting point is 01:36:54 The same thing you're asking on this side. Them niggas wasn't playing hard either. Name me the five niggas on the American squad that was playing hard. You're naming a guy. You're naming one guy who won the MVP. We know he was just shooting the motherfucking. We know who won that bitch. We know who won the team.
Starting point is 01:37:10 We know who was second to MVP. We know who was third to MVP. But they wasn't playing hard, though. It's a, it's a different. So they played against each other. They're not playing hard. They're not playing hard. Exactly.
Starting point is 01:37:22 So now we're doing a prequel of the United States versus the world. When we're talking about the Olympic format, when they're going to push for that format, the Olympics are going to push for, hey, the best U.S. team versus the best internationals. Let's make that a theme. Remember, me and BJ pushed for that narrative. We say, look, we need to make this happen.
Starting point is 01:37:43 So here we are testing it out for the first time. This is the first time we're doing U.S. versus the world. They've been doing it on a smaller level. This is now we're making it a real format for the Olympics. You guys are easily true. Last year, they had Charles Barkley pick majority of euros. And then you got his team, and then you technically got two American teams. They used that young team as a decoy.
Starting point is 01:38:15 But they didn't say it was U.S. I know. No, they didn't say it. So now they're doing it. But I got to watch it. Now they're doing it. And we watch the Euro team play how many games? Did they play any harder than anybody else?
Starting point is 01:38:26 No. They got smacked in the championship. They got smacked in the championship. Did they make it to the championship? Yeah, they got smacked. All right. So regardless of who's playing hard or not, what we see now is this year is international versus U.S.
Starting point is 01:38:39 Ain't no two teams, four teams, ain't no D-League players. Ain't no rookies. It's three teams. Hey, these teams are going to match up. Who did the Euro's beat to get to the championship? It's the All-Star game. I don't have a problem with the format. All I'm saying is that the top, all I'm saying is that the top,
Starting point is 01:38:57 my argument was just the reason why it's changed is because the top five players in the NBA are international players. The NBA is going to expand things for the All-Star game to be able to bring more international countries to the All-Star game. Since the All-Star game is down, we have the best five players that's international players. Why not just bring more countries now? Like it's the money thing. So since the All-Star thing is down, we got to add more Europeans. We got to add more Euro or international players because it's down. And the game is changing.
Starting point is 01:39:25 The last seven years, we didn't sit up here and watch the Europeans, the international players dominate the NBA. So what the NBA going to do is? Now we're going to camp to them a little bit. You mean, wait a minute. You said Euro players are more the same international. Yeah, it's a big-ass for seven years. The world's the world.
Starting point is 01:39:43 It's the world. It's us, basically. Yon has been winning MVP. Shai, SGA, who was, Yokic, Luka, Wimby's coming up into it. So you got the five euro players. So like, yes, since we've been sitting on this couch, the whole world.
Starting point is 01:39:59 The first day we've been sitting on this couch, I've been saying the European players, I mean, the same players are taken over. Okay, when you say taking over, there's 400 people taking over to me sounds like a majority and half. No, not six. That's because you're looking at it from this lens, When you say take over, when you say take over,
Starting point is 01:40:19 they're all for different places. If we make 24 all-stars and you're talking about five made it? That's not taking over. Five of the best players in the league. I see what you're saying, though. I know what you're saying. So think about it this way. Euro basketball.
Starting point is 01:40:34 The Americans that go over there to play in Europe to play basketball, you have to have two imports per team. You can't bring more than two or three imports on one team. So over there, you can't say the Americans are dominating European basketball. Are they not? Do they not? They're not. They're not dominating.
Starting point is 01:40:52 But they're over there playing. Right now, they're asking for them to play better. Are they the league of school? None is. All of them. All of them. All of them. All of them.
Starting point is 01:41:03 No. Not a fact. Not a fact. Not a fact. Our left on. Not a lot. Not a fact. You're a liar.
Starting point is 01:41:11 You're a liar. You're a liar. You're a liar, right. kick Jabari Parker off the team. They're about to kick Jabari Parker off the team. No, look at the U.S.A. Let me finish my point.
Starting point is 01:41:22 Let me finish my point. My point is, over there, they have imports. Over there, they have imports. You have to bring these guys in two or three at a time. Over here is the same. You can't just overload a bunch of Europeans
Starting point is 01:41:34 onto American teams. You're oversaturated in the market for the American. We are the majority. They are, they're not the locals. They're the imports. You're importing Denny Avia, you're importing fucking Josh Giddy.
Starting point is 01:41:47 These, their imports to our country. We're imports to their country. That's the difference between the fight between who's got talent. Why is it so many more Europeans coming over? What's the point? What's the point? The point is they have talent that's coming over here and they're showing their talent.
Starting point is 01:42:07 Liar. And if you're a liar is, we, the NBA, in America pulled every prospect out of those countries, they're here. So the talent over there is getting their ass whoop by the people we don't want here that can't make a roster here, right?
Starting point is 01:42:31 Where Lucas from, it's only Luca. He's the only one that can make it here. Our star player, our 15th man, is over there running and luck around that motherfucker out. I wouldn't be that fun. Oh, this is what's here. For real. I see why
Starting point is 01:42:44 Luca turned into it. We just watched the Fibas. We just watched the Fibas where USA did not even matter for the Fibas. I got it again. Fiba is the guys here, the stars here are on those teams. Right now as we speak today,
Starting point is 01:43:01 Luca, Janice, Yokic, Wimby, and all the other Paris guys, the 12 that's here, they're not in their country. So what American has over there whooping the rest of the Frenchmen
Starting point is 01:43:15 Why are the Why are the You should still be You should still be Woping the Fibba You should be winning Fibba You should not be meddling You should not be
Starting point is 01:43:27 Going to the edge With South Sudan Just because they got One American Over there doing a Nobody gives a fuck about that They still got International niggins that
Starting point is 01:43:36 Can play That are pushing These guys to the limit When a fucking Fever coach says Listen we're not worried about these guys three, four years because we competing with them at this level now on this level.
Starting point is 01:43:47 So when we all move up, our guys are going to be good enough to integrate. That's why they're expanding. Why would you think they're expanding for it? Ooh, ooh. I have a question. There you go. We not jumping you. I'm used to this.
Starting point is 01:44:03 I just have, no, I just have to. You know, I'm used to this. Mine is a gentleman, but you put the back all the time. To what y'all talk, right. Get your niggins off the back all the time. Why do they live? Why do they limit the amount of? Yeah.
Starting point is 01:44:16 Why? Yeah. Why do they take it? Oh, for Americans over there? Why you can only have two? We don't do that shit over here. Is that still a rule though? Yeah.
Starting point is 01:44:23 It's a rule. It's a rule because of the local players. They want their shine to, no, they want to shine to be on the local players. They ain't good enough. Who ain't good enough? The locals. They're good enough. They just don't want imports coming in to take the shine.
Starting point is 01:44:38 So if they had, listen, if they could put 10 guys from over here on their roster, they would. They would. They would. They would. In order to the truth. Because they even do, they even do. They would. So what would that say about the American players if they can bring over 10
Starting point is 01:44:49 international guys to take spot? They're taking spots from American players. You don't think the American players and the Americans, because they're limited them. The American society would actually say some shit about that. We were like, damn, y'all bringing these guys in to replace us? No, that's not what they do is. They can't.
Starting point is 01:45:08 I watch, I'll watch. But that's what you said, right? Then you say that. You're giving more. leeway to the euros and they're replacing us and they're sending us off. Didn't that much say? I don't know why they're living.
Starting point is 01:45:17 I don't make the U.S. people play hard. I just said this shit. I know who the best three players on the Greek team is. We're keeping them all out because we're scared of them? What you mean? We know the Greece team that plays, just like whatever Yokes team plays or whatever South Sudan team plays.
Starting point is 01:45:41 You're saying we are purposely keeping them out because we're afraid of their time? No, no one's keeping anybody out. I know for a fact. The international players are listening to the international NBA players that are over here that are saying, listen, you might not want to go over there, man. It's not the basketball you want to play. They don't play the type of basketball that we play.
Starting point is 01:45:59 They're not saying that. Trust me. My team playing me. My team over here is 300,000. I know Ennis Canter has said it. They play there's 300,000 over here. They pay hundreds of millions. There's a lot of players who said.
Starting point is 01:46:10 Whoa, whoa. Did you just say Ennis Cantor said it? Yeah, he said it before. And what? And what he was, he was good? He was really good? Scott. And his Canada was very good.
Starting point is 01:46:20 And how much money did he make over here versus over there? He made a lot of money over here. He can't even go back over there. Yeah, that was, but he wanted to be the real. He can't go back. He can't go to his country. That doesn't, he can't go back. He can't go back.
Starting point is 01:46:33 He has nothing to do with basketball. So he's a citizen. It has nothing to do with the game of basketball. When we talk about why, why players complain about the game here, we're going to now. Now we go back to the basketball. We go back to the whole AAU conversation. We go back to the whole A.
Starting point is 01:46:48 We go back to why is American basketball struggling? Oh shit. Why are the international guys the ones coming over here playing the game the right way? Why is it that they say, man, I'd rather stay over here and play and get money? Who say that? Who says that? I know damn where Luca, Luca wouldn't have got no $285 million in his country. Why would Yonis say he want to go back to Greece?
Starting point is 01:47:14 I know Yonis. Why would he say I want to go back to Greece? When it's over? Why would he say that? When it's old? Why would he say that? Because I'd be the richest nigga here. Because he's under contract.
Starting point is 01:47:23 Because he's under contract. I can buy the country with the money. He's under contract. He's under contract. Hold on. You don't think Joe going to go back and be with his horse? I hear you. You don't think they want to go back and be with.
Starting point is 01:47:37 Hey, man. If there are such, they're not holding up in the United States. They say, come over here. Is there a such thing as for them being a free agent? Yeah. Yeah. Yon is. Then yogis have been a free agent before, right?
Starting point is 01:47:49 And Janus both have been free agents, right? They had the choice to go to fuck back over that, didn't it? They didn't make that fucking choice. No, whoa, whoa. So, for your point, when it's over, when it's over, that's not my point. You said, Yonis want to go back, right? Yonis want to go back when this shit is old. That wasn't my point.
Starting point is 01:48:06 He had a choice for me. No, you say he's under contract. No, the point you made was, the point you made was they got the word. They stayed because they got the contract is what you say. I'm not talking about them. I'm talking about the other international players. He stayed because he was under contract. He had an opportunity when that contract ran out.
Starting point is 01:48:23 When did the contract run out? Because he said it after he had the contract. He didn't have to be up. 300 million? 200 million? How many times he'd been a free agent? His contract had been. He just recently said it.
Starting point is 01:48:33 He signed three NBA deals. He just recently said it. So he just recently said it. So he has an opportunity to go back. He has an opportunity when it's over. No, when his contract is up. To do what? To do what?
Starting point is 01:48:45 To do what? To do what? To do what? No. No. So, he's playing with his country in front of his country. He does on the Olympics. $400,000?
Starting point is 01:48:52 He does. $400,000. Every four years he does. International players are getting the memo. If you want to play good basketball, if you want to play good basketball, stay where you at, play good basketball. But if you want to get money, if you want to get money, come over here. You want to get money?
Starting point is 01:49:14 Play here. We've lost sight of what real basketball is in America. So them over there, they say, listen, man, you want to play, you want to play good basketball, stay over here, man. You want to go over here, get paid, and sit on the bench? Come over here, man. Come over here. Hey, I'm trying to drive over there for a year.
Starting point is 01:49:32 Hey, shot, I can tell you this show right now. You go ask one of the fifth. Them 17-year-old motherfuckers, you want to stay over here. You want to go to motherfuckers and get the N-I-L deal. N-I-L deal. That's why. That's why they're- If they develop, why do they, when we go over there, we leading the team is going to be smacking.
Starting point is 01:49:49 They can't, y'all, the vision is confusing me. Like, they develop better. They develop better, but we just say, where are you not? How did he say he want to go to Greece? He wanted to, how do you say he want to go back? All the development over there. When is you are not confused? My y'all think is trying.
Starting point is 01:50:07 Oh, Mike James is. Y'all. Y'all is. He's so bored. He's doing floaters from the high court. So why is Mike James not playing in America? Well, he was, but then. No, no, no.
Starting point is 01:50:20 I want to know why. why he's not. No, no, no, he was. No, he was, he had his chance and then we saw what he did. Nothing. No, he had his chance. He was bawling. He went to throw. He was easy to get money.
Starting point is 01:50:30 So he went where it was easy to get money. He was running the one in the complaint with Katie. Harder for him. He was talking about. It was harder for him here. He said step, all step curry do run around. We saw him in the playoffs running around and run your ass back over overseas. He went over there.
Starting point is 01:50:47 He went over there because it was harder. Yeah. Lead him in scoring. Why? Leading him. Why is he not? Not here. It's harder.
Starting point is 01:50:54 Wait a minute. But if he's that good here. No, they're crazy. That's to say something. I'm confused. That's what we're seeing. That's what we're seeing. Why is Mike James the American playing overseas?
Starting point is 01:51:11 Is he just playing? Why is he so good he's over there? But is what is he's doing? No, no, no. What I'm saying is. Are the people who can't make our team. That's what we're saying. Is Mike James not better than Brony James?
Starting point is 01:51:26 Oh, my God. If Brony James go over there, he can't go down in the TV, Gabbits. That's Americans. Come on. See, that's more American. That's more American. That's what we tell you. All that development you're talking about are worst players go over there.
Starting point is 01:51:40 They're MVP. They're not so much. They got statues over there. So Mike James. My mother's Americans over here. They don't have any of the team no more. He got a motherfucker. Who is that?
Starting point is 01:51:50 That's American. That's American. That's American. God. Jesus. Dirk got a statue. Dirk got one of them in dollars. But these same statues took the Avengers all the way to the end of the line. These same statues, these same statues took the Avengers to the end of the road.

Starting point is 01:54:24 Huh? So if there's a trial. I was over there, 35, 40, 40, 45, They have locals already in place to establish. So if you bring in imports. You have two combos. So the 13th team has a name? Yeah, all of them are locals.
Starting point is 01:54:40 They're all local. They all know them. So if a guy came over, so I'm back to the, why they limit two imports to their teams. Because someone like me that come on a team, right? And I'm washed in Memphis, and I'm over there average in 30. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:54:54 Because you'll take one of their spots. Yeah. So you already, we brought you here. I think we brought you here. service. You're servicable. We're paying you to do it out. We're paying you to do a job. We're paying you to do a job. It's like two and a half. It could be two Americans. It can be an Asian. So it can be like a Filipino tie. Yeah. So you can get three imports. Yeah. We'll be born over here. We'll pay you this. Puerto Rico.
Starting point is 01:55:17 Hey, I'm going to do you one even better. The rule is you can't even start the two Americans. And they can't plan. They can't play one got to play one, got to play one quarter. Don't got a play or you can't put them both out there. Yeah, that's like my... And they both came to plan the fourth. And they both can't play the fourth. Boy, they be out there. That's a time.

Starting point is 01:56:28 No. In the country that got all. All the fundamentals. I'll play in China. Bro, I'll play it first. I'll play it first and four. First and four. You can do that both of two or third.
Starting point is 01:56:38 Second and third. They took a nap. Second and third. Come on, man. But they got the country, they got the development that we eat. They got all that shit. I didn't say China. We did not say China.
Starting point is 01:56:49 That's the part of the team. They are fundamental. That's not a part of international. Fundamental. No, it's not a part of international. No. Okay. They're not a part of the international.
Starting point is 01:57:00 No. No, you go over there and get buckets. You get buckets and get buckets and get paid. And hopefully you get a statue like Stefan Warburys. Put like this. And they have a puppet show of you. When you go to Europe, nigger, that 30, go to 15 quick. You be passing that, you go to your, passing it cutting or you
Starting point is 01:57:16 cut your ass out in the country. I can tell you this, if you're an American and you go overseas and you ain't balding, come on back home. You're doing this. Man. We get paid the most out of everybody. Just come on back home, man. You're going 24-I fitness money.
Starting point is 01:57:32 I'd be like that. You ain't doing it. Sometimes it'd be the home. A lot of people can't handle that shit, man. They've been picking people from the Drew lead. Oh, a lot of people can't handle it, though. Who picking people from the Drew League? Overseas.

Starting point is 01:58:28 So they'll rather make $29,000 hoping they get. a 10 day versus going overseas to get that money because they think once they go over there it's all gone it is so they'll rather just stay on the five man that's a lot of childish man i asked them i asked the dude those 10 years i just said here because i wanted to i wanted to make NBA team that was my dream my dream is going to go overseas fuck that make 45 000 yeah 45 will four tag he's 45 will play the lake and like like anything said Michael jorren said you should play summer talk i said no that was that was actually
