along with your hosts, Mace and Cam. Killer was good, man. Raring thought. What's happening, man? What's the word, my nigga? Put your glasses on, Cam. I got them on. I came with my eyes on. I ain't got no problems, Cam. I got them on. I came with my glasses on. I ain't got no problems, man.

I came with my glasses on. I said, let me start the show with my shit on. I ain't got time, man. What's going on? Yeah, I'm good. I see everybody dressed and must have got warm out there. Is warm out there in there? Yeah, it's actually warm.

Boss, that was as crazy as what you said earlier. Sideways. You said sideways like that. That's what the nigga back there said. Oh. I just heard a nigga say sideways.

Is that good enough? Let's start, man. Let's do it. I have no response to that. Okay. Let's do it. Wait. What is that you?

What is that you? What is that you? That's all I want to know. No, this nigga is Patrick Beverly. You're Patrick Beverly right now you're reaching bro let's do it bro so let's start with the breaking news. Last night, the Brooklyn Nets fired head coach Jacques Vaughn after a 21-33 record. Do you guys think the Nets made the right choice? Well, did the Nets make the right choice when it comes to, that's Jacques Vaughn, right? Yeah.

Fellow Kansas, Jayhawk. I think didn't. What do you mean fellow? What do you mean fellow? Tell me. What do you mean fellow? You never went to Kansas. What are you talking about?

Yo, what do you mean fellow? Fellow Jayhawk. Fellow Jayhawk. What are you talking about? What do you mean fellow Jayhawk? Yo, what are you talking about, bro? What are you talking about what do you mean fellow jayhawk yo what are you talking about bro what are you talking about you're gonna let me have my take pause or what bro i'm trying to i'm trying to do my job you started i'm just it's just a lot of shit you said i've been missing out on so when you said fellow jayhawk i just wanted to get more context to what you were saying when you said a fellow Jayhawk.

The former Jayhawk. The former Jayhawk. You know? Oh, cool. Jacques Vaughn. But if my memory serves me correct, I do believe that this is his second year coaching. And I think he was,

I think he was an interim coach before, at least an assistant coach or something of that sort. But the records just speak for itself. He's been 129, I think, and 226. That's just not a good record. 129 wins with 226 losses. That's just not going to cut it for New York, man. Maybe they could have hit them in Utah or somewhere like that, and you can have this kind of debacle, but you can't do that in a Big Apple, Jock. You know better than that, man. You know better than that. And I think the interim coach of Kevin Olley would be a better fit, actually, Paul, because he gets the players in a sense that he coached up at UConn the first year there.

He won the title. Did something I haven't seen somebody doing a very long time other than Danny Hurley. So I really like the transition from Jack Vaughn to Kevin Olley. Is this what they go with according to the athletics and the people up there gave us that information? I got sources now, killer. I don't know. Anyway, what I was saying is man

sources this nigga here Jay Hawk this is how we starting off today I see okay sideways pause I bet this is what we doing today I'm cool with whatever it's cool

let's rock out I got my glasses on. Anyway, yeah, you're right. He was an assistant coach. Then he was the interim coach for Steve Nash when Steve Nash got fired. You know,

you inherit the team with Kevin Durant on the team, Kyrie Irving, and then those players leave and you're stuck with a bunch of, not even going to say B-list, C-list guys, you know, outside of Bridges. What else do you really have? You know, you have a former three-time All-Star, 6'10 point guard, who plays when he wants to play.

Apparently, he's hurt every game. He has a pattern. One game, out for 11 games. Two games, out for 16 games. So,

Mason's 100% right. It ain't going to cut it for New York, but this guy, Jock Vaughn, got thrown a bad hand. Kevin Durant, Kyrie Irving, then you left with Mikel Bridges, which is a great talent, but he's not an all-star this year. And Ben Simmons. And that's basically what you got left over.

And you want niggas to win. I'll tell you this much, man. There's no disrespect to the Barclays Center or anything like that. And I got friends in the front office over there. That's, you know, in the general manager and assistant general manager position, which are my boys. I hope their job is safe or if they, you know, just out of friendship or business is business. But the Barclays is just too much fun. The Barclays, you go to the Barclays, niggas are smoking weed in the Barclays.

You know, niggas are smoking weed in the Barclays. You know, niggas is getting in the beef. You go over where niggas is eating that one nigga from one side of Brooklyn beef with the other side of Brooklyn. Niggas, like I said, you go in the bathroom, niggas smoking. It's just too much fun there. It's too loose, you know, and it's translating on the court. I don't want to sit there and act like I know that for a fact, but when I go to the Barclays, I just think about it as no rules. It's like me going to Harlem Week or Grant's Tomb. There's just no law and government in the Barclays Center. Do what you want.

Niggas fucking inside the Barclays Center. Niggas doing all types of shit. Now, don't get me wrong. Niggas do need a place to go. We're always looking for somewhere to hang out at. But it's translating on the court to where these niggas are not producing. I don't know what they're doing in their off time when they're not playing. But what I will say is this.

When you go to Madison Square Garden, it's a different feel. And when I say that, it's more of prestige and i don't know why because they haven't won in years but it's just a certain prestige when you walk inside master square garden we got to think about this james dolan had charles oakley escorted out the garden like listen we not gonna have that nigga niggas told Spike Lee, stop using this elevator. I don't care. They're not an employee. You keep using the employee elevator.

Spike Lee says, I've been a ticket holder for 20-something years, and I can't use this elevator. And James Dolan told him, ticket holder is not employee. This is the employee elevator. We're going to have to ask you to stop using it. Spike went on TV. Listen, the garden holds certain expectations. The Barkley Center is loose. Does this have something to do with the coach

and the basketball team? I don't know. But it just all goes hand in hand and to me coincides. I'm making my own conspiracy theory right here. But I'm telling you now, if you are in town and you go to a Brooklyn Nets game, bring your weed

with you, bring a condom, you might be able to do it all. I'm just telling you. That's what I get when I go to the Barclays Center. That's crazy. I'm serious. That's what I get. I've seen

niggas with my own eyes smoking weed. Nigga tried to pass me a blunt. Nigga, I don't know. I don't know, my nigga. But for Jack Verne, he got served a real deal. Ain't like he picked this team. Ain't like he knew he was going to lose Kevin Durant. But at the end of the day, Mason's 100% right.

Whatever the circumstances is, this will not be allowed in New York City whatsoever. He's 100% right about that. It won't cut it. Sorry, Jock. Would he have been a spaz? Would he have been a sucker to say, you know what, everybody else leaving, I'm out too? I'm not coaching these niggas.

When we going to see a coach say that? I'm not putting these losses on my record. Well, Jock Vaughn, if I'm not mistaken, never had a head coaching job before this, if I'm not mistaken. And sometimes they like, damn, this is my only opportunity. I've been an assistant for X amount of years.

Who knows when I may get another job, another chance to be a head coach. So niggas take the opportunity that's presented before them because they don't know. It isn't like when you hear a team before he coached the Nets, right? It isn't like when it's a vacancy

in the coaching position, they'd be like, well, Jock Vaughn's up for the job. He's a good kid. You never hear that. You don't hear Jock Vaughn's name when he's a head coach vacancy. You'll hear Mark Jackson's name a hundred times. Cam never hear that. You don't hear Jack Vaughn's name when he's head coach vacancy. You'll hear,

you'll hear Mark Jackson's name a hundred times. Not to cut you off, but he did head coach. He did head coach the magic back in 2012. And what was his record? I'm sorry.

Thank you for letting me know. No, of course. I got to find his record. Horrible. I don't want to say horrible, but yeah. Well, when you get a chance, let me know. Like I apologize i've run that's why i said i'm not sure if you coached or not but yeah i don't remember the the biggest thing i know jack var from to be totally honest with you and i'm not being

disrespectful i'm just telling you cameron's memory is Allen Iverson shaking you up ridiculously, making you fall and stumble back and look crazy. To me, that's the biggest Jacques Vard moment of his whole career, coaching or basketball-wise. No disrespect, because it takes a lot to be in the NBA, but if you're asking Cam, what you know Jacques Vard for? It's not the Kansas Jayhawks.

It's not whatever team he played for. It's Allen Iverson putting you in some wild mix. And the reason I remember it because it wasn't a regular fall. It was one of them when you try to hold yourself up, pause, and your legs just said, I ain't with it. Pause. And you just fall. It was a crazy fall.

That's what I remember Jack Vaughn for. It was a crazy fall. That's what I remember Jack Vaughn for. No disrespect, but if you ask him what I remember. To answer your question, so he coached Orlando for two years and he had a 58-158 record. And then he was fired February 5th, 2015. 58-158?

Yeah. I'm telling you, kill after the coach in the NBA, man. 58-158 is wild who was on that team I didn't know he coached anybody was Dwight still there what was the short guard

they had a good team no that was Van Jermaine Nelson Jermaine Nelson Jermaine Nelson Jermaine Nelson You talking about Yeah that was Yeah he was on there

That was the good Orlando team J.J. Redick Gustavo Glenn Davis Al Harrington Tobias Harris Yeah

Yeah I ain't What have you got to think about You got to think Yeah, yeah. You got to think about it, too, you know. You got to think about the year. That's that Miami Heat run. Yeah. 2012. Yeah.

Ain't nothing he could have done about that yeah that's why I said listen yeah I know superstars that don't sound like yeah I just want to add I think definitely the icing

good luck with a new job though yeah for sure I just want to add I think the icing on the cake was definitely the 50 point loss to the Celtics I know the Celtics are first in the East but that much of a loss is just pretty bad obviously and the

player who scored the highest amount of points was only 15 points so I just think Nets were just sick of it and had to let him go but I mean hopefully yeah he does find another job, and we'll see what happens for them next. But it's going to be a little difficult for them.

I think the Nets are starting to seem cursed from my vantage point. It seems like nothing they do works. You know what I'm saying? Ever since they moved it from Jersey, it seems like nothing they do works. moved it from Jersey. It seems like nothing they do works. Listen, when I told you Spike Lee don't want to be a Nets fan, it's crazy from Brooklyn.

He wouldn't even cross over to stay home. Yeah, man. This ain't the Nets I remember, man. They got to get it together. Yeah. Yeah, when they was in Jersey, they had a little nice run. There's a time when shit,

y'all think about it, when Derek Coleman was there. Yeah, Petrovich. God bless the dad, my nigga. Petrovich, God bless the dad, Petrovich. Then they went to a championship too with Jason Kidd. They didn't win it all, but they came close a couple times.

Okay. Moving along to the next topic, Glorilla decided to shoot her shot at Damian Lillard. She posted a picture with Dane saying, who nigga this is, because I want him. Hashtag, get him, Glo. Then she said,

whoever she is can't whoop me, so I really don't care so first rate her riz and thoughts on what she said today yeah i shouldn't have a mic killer take the mic from him now, Paul. Yeah. Can you imagine Glorilla with Dame Killer? Yes or no? That's all I want to say.

No, yes or no? I mean, listen, I don't know what Damien Lillard like, but if you asking me, no. Is it like... I like the way she wrote. Okay, if he did take her down, pause, when would that happen? Would it be three in the morning, four in the...

Give me the scenario. Dame type cry, you don't morning. Give me this scenario. Dame type quiet. You don't know what Dame into, man. Going through a divorce, he might be hot. You got to realize, man, you got to realize, and I'm not putting him in the same category as Tom Brady whatsoever, but Tom Brady broke up and jumped in bitches' DMs and not knowing how to play the game.

They had his DM on the shade room. Like my nigga. You know, we don't know exactly how athletes are and they try to keep such a great image on everything. We don't know if that nigga jumped in glow DMs and maybe hollered her first.

We don't know this. I know one thing. I like the way she said curbing. She said curbing on curbing. Go glow the way she said curbing she said curbing on curbing go glow when i when she said curbing she really mean cuban curbing on curbing that's how they gas you up yo glow i like dame for you i really do i think that's a good fit pause i i mean if you believe it you should go for it the nigga might be weak right now you might have to take a different direction shout out to dame we just. But if she shot a shot,

she's serious, right? She posted it. And then she said, whoever she is can't whoop me. Oh, we serious? So she wants all the smoke. This is serious? Glow.

That's Riz right there, right? That's that Memphis 10 Riz. So rate it. If somebody, you know, approached you, if a woman approached you that way. That's big confidence for Glo to go after Dame. Like, but you know what? I've seen niggas pull certain women

that I thought they couldn't pull. Are you going to rate the Riz and answer the question? What are you doing? The Riz is on one to ten. The Riz is on 15. The Riz is on 15 to think she got dang. She on 15 right now. On pump two.

Pause for real. This is a bag of quarters. 15 on pump 2 yeah 15 dollars worth of quarters on pump 2 she's gas for real but I like it pause

I like it if she came from where she came from she could pull a dame yo race you doing everything but answering the question bro I said on one of ten is she on fifteen it's a two-part

question that she asked you 10 minutes ago, and you still haven't answered the second part of the question. So, rate her Riz if somebody approached you that way. Is it a green, or is it not? And then thoughts on what she said to him. Definitely. It's definitely a no for me. Is it a no?

If somebody approached you that way? You don't want a girl to tell you she wants you? Hashtag get him blow? Why is all this good for Dame and not for you? Right. Dame is from Oregon. Dame is from Oregon, right?

He's from Oakland. He's from Oakland, okay. That's just like Harlem then. What's good for Dame is good for me then. Pause. So it's a no for Dame too. It's a no for Dame too. It's a no for Dame, but it's good for her.

It's good for her. It's good for her. Let me tell you why. Let me tell you why, though, Killer. You ever met somebody that's like, go ahead, Killer. I'm going to why, though, killer. You ever met somebody that's like, go ahead, killer. I'm going to say my part after that. All right.

All right. All right. All right, cool. Start to answer your question. Now, for me, it's two different eras to answer the question. If this was in the 90s, I would be turned on if I'm Dane.

You know, my baby mom was tough. You know, I used to like tough bitches because I blame that shit on, like I'm Dane. You know, my baby mom was tough. You know, I used to like tough bitches because I blamed that shit on like Apache and them. You don't know Apache, but he had the strong case to bitch. Bitches had bandanas and all type of shit. With the pistols and shit.

You know what I'm saying? MC Lyte was a little tough. You know what I'm saying? I kind of liked that in my woman at the time. What was the light-skinned one? What was the light-skinned one named from L.A.? The boss? Yeah, boss.

Boss Nicky D, Antoinette. You know what I'm saying? You know what I'm saying? Yo, you know Nicky D is... If this was a younger kid... Nicky D is Chi-Chi Moms. Get the fuck out of here, yo. Yeah, for real.

He said he was born in Def Jam. That's crazy. He said he was born in Def Jam. That's crazy, man. I'm a Nicky D fan. That's his mom. Chi Chi and his mother. That's crazy.

That's wild. So in the 90s, this would have turned me on big time. Girl pull a gun out on me, my dick might have got hard in the 90s. You know what I'm saying? Today, no. First of all,

you're not threatening anybody that I've been dealing with already. You're threatening people that I've been dealing with off the jump. Secondly, do not bring that shit to the NBA, man. You think Adam Silver is in the weirdest? You know, these niggas get these calls. Do not bring that drama to the NBA.

Next thing you could, you know why? We like stupid shit as Americans. We like Dame getting the scuffle on the court go go glow real is running on the court that type shit she giving that type energy and and we can't have that man we can't bring that because you know what happens if glow do that i'm just giving you scenario she run the court everybody gonna love her she got our man back yeah that's what the real that's what a real bitch do if you get a nigga back she don't care if that nigga was seven foot one yeah that's

whatever we had look my nigga the bitch catch me if you catch me outside went crazy yeah made millions going after stupid or dr phil show went fans, as soon as she turned 18, I don't know how old she was, 20 million, got the single out, all type of crazy shit. We appreciate stupid shit as Americans and make people famous out of stupid shit. And look, I'm being honest,

I'm not relating this to Cardi B because Cardi B is my homegirl. She's super talented, super funny, great talent, everything around. But the reason I originally started following Cardi B however many years ago, seven, eight years ago,

however long it was, is because she was eating corn like a monkey almost. She's like, I said, oh, who is this bitch? This bitch is funny. And I started following her and I realized her talent after I started following her and I realized her talent

after I started following her. But her talent is what really made me follow her. And I'm not going to say it was her being funny that made me follow her. Before she was rapping or modeling or doing anything else, she turned out to be an exceptional talent. But I'm just telling you

the original reason I started following her. It was a time where and like I said, no disrespect. I'm just telling you the original reason I started following. It was a time where and like I said, no disrespect. I'm just telling you when Instagram, you know, not saying when it started, but when it was on, we started following what's the kid name

with the bird song and all that. You know, Hammerhead Shark Dudes. We started following people because they were different i'll say and i'll be like yo it isn't really about talent or anything else these niggas is funny it's so much content on the internet that you follow people for different reasons and then later on you'll be like yo i didn't know you was doing all this i just thought you was mad funny it's like certain females i'm following when i see them with clothes on on the gram,

I don't know who they are because I've been following a naked bitch for three years. When you put on a pair of jeans, I'm like, oh, that's what you look like with clothes. Damn, what are you talking about, Cam? Can you answer the question? I'm doing what you did. I'm telling you, I'm just giving you

examples. I'm telling you what dating me got me with. I'm just telling you examples. I'm telling you what Damien got lit with. I'm just telling you. Stand over here looking like, what is he talking about? I said, yeah. The audience know what I'm talking about. Because you follow a chick for her ass

or her tits and then she put clothes on. You don't know who she dealing with. But you're right. Let me get back to the question. Damien Lillard, I would not recommend this only because you can't turn this on. Why you hating on Glo? No, I like Glo. Her new song, Go Glo, that's my

shit. Cuban on Cuban. Yeah, Glo. Curbin on Curbin. It's Curbin on Curbin. Yeah, she's really saying Cuban, but you got to realize, even like Money Bag, yo, he can't say music. He say Merzik.

He say Merzik. That's why I like the Memphis niggas. They got they low on slay. He can't say music. He be like Merzik. She say curbing on curbing. Answer is no for Damian Lillard because what you gotta realize with a female like this, you can't turn it off.

You know, and I go through that. Right now, I'm going through that. When you say, yo, stop. I don't want to be bothered and you can't turn it off. They call, they'll pop up. If they know where you're at, they'll reach out. It's been three years since I've seen

a certain female and all I do is block the number and then they call me from 800 different google numbers per day no you never got a order of protection uh two order protections in my life twice absolutely you have to get the first thing when you think it's going to reach physical violence is as a male, don't feel a way. Get an order of protection. I remember I went to court for my order of protection, and I walked through the shit to go to see the judge, and the judge said, the defendants are over there. I said, I'm the plaintiff, nigga.

The fuck is you talking about, man? They so used to the niggas getting order of protections on them. He said, defendants. I used to the niggas getting all the protections on them. He's a defendant. I'm not the defendant, nigga. But yeah, I would definitely recommend the order of protection if it's getting violent, especially if the female's

getting violent on you because as a man, you're in a lose-lose situation. You know what I'm saying? Because if any, if she says you hit her, you going to jail. And if not minimum, they're restraining you to figure out what's going on. So if you see any type of physical, in're about to get beat on. I would recommend that. I got an order of protection of murder

and Shorty told me, would you think this piece of paper that say 100 feet on a mean sign? You're in trouble if she tell you that. Yeah, because they don't care about the 100 feet. You got to stay 100 feet away. What the fuck? Are you on the street care about the 100 feet you gotta stay 100 feet away what the fuck are you on the street you measuring 100 feet i think glow will help um dame rap career though i think

glow that will help his rap career if he show up somewhere with glow his music gonna go much further i'm just saying in the cloud up generation. No, I listen. I totally agree. I love her as a rapper. I like her voice, her cadence, her delivery.

Yeah. I fucking love it. Especially that year. I love that shit. But as far as Damien Lillard rap career and being what's realistic, I think Damien's an outstanding rapper. I was in his last video or one of his videos that he did. I don't know if he's done a video since then.

I'm in his last video, which is sensational. But Dame is never going to make, and Glorilla neither, and I'm not saying she can't make it, but it's not going to happen from music, $600 million. And that's what Damian Lillard has made in the NBA. $600 million. Let's what Damian Lillard has made in the NBA 600 million dollars let's be serious about this now if you want to rap for a hobby and pop up with glow and get the cloud everything you're not getting 600 million for rap I think you should pop up with glow and get the cloud from it

women do it to us all the time pop up with a dame oh shout out Gor? Oh, shout out Gorilla and also shout out Sexy Red because the league loves both of them. Honestly, they both have turnt music,

so shout out to them. Moving along, in response to their ages, Giannis said to Dane, we the oldest ones here on the East, we got to beat some kids to win the chip.

Come on, man. So what do you think about the age difference and then Giannis' comments during the game? He said, we the oldest niggas here. Yeah.

You shouldn't be losing to no kids. So are we going to say that's the reason he had 39? Dame had 39? Because he was playing kids? I don't know how to really take that.

If you're saying we're playing kids, then y'all definitely got to turn this thing around in Milwaukee. Because you're really playing kids. Because if these are the all-stars, then these are the people stopping you from winning the East. So Giannis, we're looking for you guys to win the East straight out since you're playing against kids. And Dame, I like the way Dame looked in that all-star game,

pause, but the 39, that's what I was expecting them to do in Milwaukee. So keep up the good work, Dame. We're going to be in Milwaukee. So keep up the good work, Dane. We're going to be in Milwaukee with them seats to see y'all win it. Because I did have Milwaukee at the beginning of the year, Cam. I'm just making sure we're clear on that before the playoffs start. Anything happen, because I know you like to get in your feelings about my winnings. But shout out to cold cam that all-star game was a bum ass game i do not count that thank you i do not count that as no

stat for dame winning doing his thing nobody playing defense they had 206 points whoever got vp it didn't even really matter. Nobody played no defense, so that's not counting for me as far as Dame doing well in the NBA. No, I'm not counting that. Doc Rivers is still a problem when he gets back. Doc niggas told niggas they

are cobblers. They got a lot of chemistry that they need to work on, and they don't have a lot of time to do it. It's like 30 games left in the season. So we'll see what happens from there. As far as Giannis saying we the oldest one here, we need to beat some kids to do it. I think that was a shot at Dane to get Dane riled up. Giannis is 29 years old.

When you play against kids, Anthony Davis is 30. He's older than you. LeBron James is 39. Kevin Durant is 34, 35. Steph Curry's 35. What kids are you talking about that they got to beat? Giannis is 29 years old, so he was, to me, more like, damn, you the old man.

Step up. Everybody on the West was like over 30-something. All the niggas that we know like that outside of... Yeah, for real. Outside of, you know, Joker and SGA and Ant-Man. Yeah.

SGA and Ant-Man, you know, don't get me wrong. They had players as young too, but it was, it was a plethora of players over there over 34 years old. And so to me, this was more like,

Dave, get your old ass up and let's bust ass. For John, this is not even 30 years old. What do you mean? We got to beat some kids was more like, Dave, get your old ass up and let's bust ass, because Giannis is not even 30 years old. What do you mean we got to beat some kids? You're telling Dave that. Technically, in the NBA, you're not a spring chicken, but you're nowhere near over the hill either. You're in your prime.

So that's how I took it. Yeah, that's a good way. The thing, like, yo, Dave, it's time to turn up. You playing kids. You older than everybody here. Yeah. Yeah. That's how I took it.

It wasn't like, Giannis tried to be nice and say, we are older. But no, Giannis, you're not even 30 yet. You're 29. LeBron is 39. Yeah, but make no mistakes. Dame, Paul's are still like that, you know. We're not going to play that down. We're looking for Milwaukee to

win it all. I'm looking for Milwaukee to win it all. Them or Denver. And then I know we've talked about the game here and there and everybody I think is in agreeance that it wasn't that good, but Dame did win the All-Star Game MVP. Was that who you expected to win? Actually, no.

I thought without even seeing the game, I thought it would be like LeBron or Stephen Curry. Yeah. If anything, Ant-Man or SGA will be my second and third. I'm in my third and fourth option. But I definitely didn't see Dame winning it. Not that he's not capable. It's just not what I saw.

It's great to have on your resume that you want all-star vp but whoever won that should be ashamed nobody played no defense yo this was not a competitive all-star game whatsoever this wasn't one of them yo we really want when the whole weekend was a wash to me outside of what i said yesterday, outside of Steph Curry and Sabrina from the Liberty. I didn't care, yo. When I seen the score at over 100 points at halftime, you have to realize nobody's playing defense. Nobody. So I give Dame mad credit for making shots, open shots, and making threes. But, you know, so what? Nobody played defense. It was literally three-on-one and three-on-two fast breaks

the whole game for 48 minutes. Not impressive. I don't care. Yeah, Halliburton had 32. Even Carl Anthony Towns had 50. Yeah. So I knew that. I mean, I was like, whatever. Right.

Okay. So as far as the Dung Contest, we know that Mac McClung won. He is a G League player. How do you guys feel about a G League player winning the Dung Contest twice in a row? How do I feel about it? Really, really, like, conflicted, really, how do I feel about it? Yeah. Really,

really like conflicted really, because if you go win a dunk contest, I mean, you're practicing your dunks and stuff like that. Then you, you want to work on your game. So you're not in the G league. I mean, it's great that you win a dunk contest,

but Mack McClellan is, is, I think he was supposed to be in the NBA. Watching him play from high school, kind of struggled in college, but that was because he was under that White Iverson curse. But when he got to the NBA, he should be playing in the league and he'd need to work on his game even more and more to the point that that's evident. But you don't want to be this token guy that comes from the G League and win the slam dunk contest. And that becomes the legacy of your life. So I think it's important that he stop doing the dunk contest, work on your threes, work on your pick and roll, and hitting the mid-range shot

between the pick and rolls and getting in the league, not the G League? Well, I think that to what Mace is saying, I think the dunk contest is great exposure for him. I don't know if he's working on his game or not working on his game or whatever he's doing and not doing. Because I ain't keeping up with that nigga like that. But at the end of the day, if he's in the G League, it seems like at minimum at least two years straight. I think everybody in the G League wants to get to the NBA. Maybe this brings some more exposure to him and puts some eyes on him because now he's known as an elite dunker or whatever. And maybe they'll check out his game and hopefully he does get in the NBA.

So I don't want to say they need to practice more. I don't really know the Nick besides the dunk contest. to say they need to practice more. I don't really know the Nick besides the dunk contest. But what I will say about the whole shit is back to the weekend. This is what it's boiled down to. It would never be a G League player

when Michael Jordan was in the dunk contest or Vince Carter or Dominique Wilkins or any of these niggas. It done boiled down to the point to where we have to down to the point to where we have to go to the G League to get elite dunkers in an NBA All-Star dunk contest. This is what it boiled down to, Adam Silver.

Go get G League niggas because we don't have enough competitive dunkers in the NBA that want to be a part of this. We talked about this. I'm not sure if it was yesterday or whenever we talked about it, but I was watching the good brother Stephen A. Smith after our show, and he kind of said the same thing that I said. LeBron James, when he didn't want to do it, it made the people after him feel like it

was not a response, not responsible. It wasn't mandatory to do. And it's never mandatory, but you wanted to do it. So when you realize you got Jordan doing it and Dominique Wilkins doing it, then you want Vince Carter to be a part of it. It's even the fact that I forgot Kobe Bryant won the dunk contest because he wanted to be a part of it. Once LeBron James didn't want to do it anymore, and I know people may have seen Stephen A. Smith's tape,

but I think, believe me, our show comes on a little earlier than his. I said this yesterday. When LeBron didn't want to do it, the next generation felt like, well, LeBron is, you know, to some people, LeBron is their joy, and he didn't do it. So they felt like, well, why the fuck should I do it? It's not that important. Secondly, the money that they're offering these guys making a quarter.

So if it's $100,000 or something, $50,000, $100,000, $75,000, these guys are making $300,000, $400,000 a game. And it's not real incentive money-wise for them to do it you gotta really really want to do it but as far as uh homeboy who won the dunk contest whatever y'all nigga that nigga name is you may seem to know him and what he's doing i don't know yeah matt congrats to you because you would have never got a shot early in life. Late 90s, 2000s, you could have wrapped it up, been doing these dunks on your Instagram, YouTube, whatever.

They would have never let a nigga from the G League in. This is exactly where the dunk contest is going to, and no disrespect because I believe that a lot of players need extra publicity so people can see them, but it's not called the G League All-Star Dunk Contest. It's called the NBA Dunk Contest. That's pretty interesting.

And then, before we go to break, Cam, you kind of started talking about it, but what do you guys think are the incentives for playing and participating in All-Star Weekend? Well, to start with the Dunk Contest ahead go ahead killer i'm sorry about that i was gonna say mace seems like he has an answer because to be honest with you i was gonna say i'm not no because i don't know because the money is definitely not an incentive when you're making that much money.

It seemed like Mace had an answer, but what I would say is this. A lot of these guys, and I'm not using this in the wrong way, so pardon me if anybody takes it the wrong way, but I think this is the best way to do it. A lot of these guys are tied in to charities. So whether it's to help cerebral palsy or cancer or AIDS or a less fortunate child.

If you're part of this charity and you're saying we're going to donate $250,000 to whoever wins charity, $100,000 to second place, $50,000. Now you got the charity putting pressure on you. Do this for our charity so people will know more about our charities and maybe want to help outside of the dunk contest. That's all I can really think of because money-wise, it's not getting it. It's not getting it. So Maceace i know it sounded like you had an answer and uh i'm waiting to hear it yeah i think when

it comes to um when it comes to the nba players in particular what i've seen over the years is just a decline in passion for the game you You know, like people love the platform. What I'm looking at is players who love the platform of basketball and what it could do for everything else other than basketball. So it's like basketball allows you to travel. It allows you to shop. It allows you to go to the fashion shows like you. shop. It allows you to go to the fashion shows. You'll see NBA players more interested in their fashion than actually the game of basketball. Probably if you can open their hearts and see

what's in it, you probably will see fashion more than you see basketball. So when it comes to the all-star, that's why you're not seeing the things you're used to seeing because the passion is being diverted and changed into something else. Basketball is not the focus. It's like people are, even right now, young kids are practicing to get to the league so they can shop or get to the league so they could date this person or get to the lead so they can go on to this party is, is not like when we was growing up, like, yo, I want to actually be better than everybody else. That's a good point. All right, y'all, we're going to go to break. And when we return, we're going to discuss Jimmy Garofalo. Don't go anywhere. Poor years and counting Got you feeling like an option Maybe I'm my own problem, babe She tired of hearing, I don't know

What's happening to me won't flow Dealing with this thing called trust But she ain't really thinking bout it She wanna be free Why am I in this one? She wanna be free Hell, I don't wanna see her walk away I wish somebody told me the rules Disagreements let her win And it's cool Even when I'm ready to sing about you Welcome back.

So Raiders quarterback Jamie Garoppolo got a two-game ban for violating the league's performance-enhancing substances policy. they're saying that the raiders are expected to release him what did you think when you heard the news

yeah this is cam's guy this is not my guy pause this is cam's guy so I want to know what he thinks. Cam, what do you think about this? How is this my guy? You're always talking about Garoppolo, right? So this is your guy. Tell me exactly what I said about Garoppolo. Give me anything that I said about Garoppolo. You always talk about him with the Patriots, right? Is this the same guy? Yeah, I talk about how he had to get the fuck out of there

because he was trying to intrude on Tom Brady's space. And Bill Belichick was a part of that. And Tom Brady had to go over Bill Belichick's head to Robert Kraft. And Jimmy Garoppolo got shipped out when Tom Brady told him to get the fuck out of here. That's what all I be saying about Jimmy Garoppolo. Oh, no, I just remember Cam and Garoppolo, you know? Code Cam and Garoppolo. Never heard Code Cam with Garoppolo ever.

That's a lie. That's a lie. You never heard Code Cam with Garoppolo. That's defamation right there. Garoppolo. That's definitely defamation you never heard me say Garoppolo

nothing positive look everybody know I'm a Tom Brady fan that nigga tried to I don't even blame Jimmy Garoppolo it was Bill Belichick thinking that he was a great GM and I'm not saying he wasn't a decent one, but he was like, okay, I see a decline

in Brady. I want Garoppolo to start filling in the spot for Brady, especially when Tom Brady got hurt for like five games and Jimmy Garoppolo had went undefeated. Even when he got traded, the first six, seven games when he went to San Fran, he was undefeated. So he was like,

oh, it's kind of like the Brock Purdy shit. Like, oh, he didn't lose his first 12 games or whatever. And come to find out, he's always injured. He's always injured. All the time. He's, you know, we got to realize, we may never even heard of Brock Purdy,

at least not yet, if Jimmy Garoppolo didn't get injured. He gets injured year after year. As far as him getting caught with the substance, I dig it. I'm not telling them to do it, but I understand nigga probably told the nigga, look, you won't

get hurt no more if you take this and you won't get, and the league won't find it. A lot of times these niggas know that they can get penalized, get fined, get cut from teams, and still willing to risk it all. So they suspended them for two games,

so it must not have been nothing crazy. But for me, I don't fuck with nobody who cheat as far as taking steroids is concerned. In the black community, I just talk with somebody else. I'm like, where do you go taking steroids is concerned. In the black community, you know, I just talk with somebody else. I'm like,

where do you go and be like, yo, I just got, I just copped some steroids. I don't even know. And then we're who slings steroids. That's the question.

Yeah. I don't know for sure, but you probably had to go in a gym where niggas is super, you know, doing them eight sets. This is where this comes in. Niggas doing 55 sets. If I wanted to know where to get steroids from, I would just ask Nick. He's in there with them UFC niggas all day.

And they panties, body slamming niggas, dumb strong. You know what I'm saying? Nick would know where to get steroids from. You know where to get steroids from? Yeah. Yeah, that nigga Nick trying to come on the Zoom with the

Speedos on. Nick, what are you doing, Nick? Yeah, yeah. He comfortable in that atmosphere. My nigga Nick, trust me. Yo, Nick, do niggas be slinging steroids? I don't want to throw your gym under the bus, but do you know a nigga that know a nigga who got steroids?

See, I told you. That's what I'm telling you. Yeah, killer, you could have been dunking tomorrow. No. Nigga going in the all-star game, celebrity game, juiced up. Nigga out there getting 80. Looking like NBA jams out there. Yeah, and then you know the side.

If you ever listen to the side effects of steroids, that's how much you got to be in love with trying to win whatever you got to do. And I don't know what the side effects are, if they're true or not, because I've never taken steroids in my life. But I don't want my shit shriveling up pores on me. That means the shrinkage pores. Like, yo, my nigga, I don't want that on my, I ain't got time for that.

I don't want to win that bad. I got other ways to win than me taking steroids. As far as Garoppolo's concerned, back to Garoppolo, it's been downhill for years. he may be a good second string quarterback at one of these franchises.

I think he needs more than a year to let his body heal pause because he comes back in six, seven, eight, nine months. And he keeps getting a job. But I really believe that he needs time to let his body heal if he's going to have a decent second half of his career. As far as him taking steroids, I don't support that shit. I don't even fuck with Canelo no more about his steroids. Nigga ate a steak talking about, oh, it was in the steak. You knew it was in that steak. You tried to hide it in the steak.

Y'all never ate this kind of steak. Yes, you did. Nigga, you wasn't eating a random steak during training camp, nigga. You got a new shit during training camp you've been doing this 15 years. I don't fuck with Canelo. Anytime you get caught and try and blame it on something else, cool. I don't fuck with Canelo. Anytime you get caught and try and blame it on something else, cool.

I don't fuck with the niggas who admit it, but at least they admit it. Nah, I ate a steak and it was steroids in it. What? All right, man. I don't fuck with niggas

who try to cheat or get an advantage and niggas really be working hard. That's just me. Okay. And then lastly texans quarterback cj stroud was seen leaving travis scott's celebrity softball game in houston with amber rose so there's clips of him and rose going to his car now after the fact she then later posted we literally don't know each other and only met yesterday at a game.

The sprinter left me and he was nice enough to give me a ride to my hotel. Considering the situation, do you have any advice for the rookie quarterback? And then what did you think about Amber Rose posting the statement on her Instagram after the fact? Where is it? Where's the cup? Nah, let me stop. I think that's actually the new wave. That's the new wave. That's the new wave. There used to be guys dating younger women.

Now it's older women dating younger guys. It seems like it's the wave. It's still the same wave because young bitches be your old niggas too. I ain't going to hold you, man. I'll be batting them joints away like bees, man. Back up, little girl. Leave me alone. I'm not what you want. I'll ruin hold you, man. I'll be batting them joints away like bees, man. Back up, little girl. Leave me alone. I'm not what you want.

I'll ruin your life, baby. I'm telling you that right now. I think it's right now. I'll ruin your life, man. As far as this situation is concerned, Amber Rose is my homegirl, so I ain't got nothing bad to say about her, but I'll say this.

You said it earlier, Mace, and I ain't going to put down CJ Stroud. I'm just saying you made a great point earlier. Niggas is playing to get the bitches in the clothes they always wanted. Yeah. And I ain't going to put down CJ Stroud because he's a great talent. Ain't like he ain't doing what he ain't need to do.

And I ain't gonna say he green, but at the end of the day, you gotta know when niggas is laying on you. It's a hundred ways, and shout out to Amber, that's homie. But it's two billion ways Amber Rose could've

got back to her hotel. CJ Stroud was the last ride to the hotel. Word. That was the last word. Word. Tell me more. Tell me more. Yeah, if it wasn't for CJ, I don't

know what I would have done. Come on, man. So, I think that you know, that was a statement because CJ Strada ain't going to say, no, you got to think about this. And no disrespect to nobody else, neither, because look,

ain't nobody out there versions and nothing like that neither but it'd be like you know you you and and i ain't saying no names neither but fuck it i'm gonna say it i for people who are kind of know what i'm talking about but i ain't gonna say no names i was in a public relationship before and i've never been in this joint where niggas be so hyped to say nigga may not even know Shorty's name. Be like, yo, I'm with so-and-so. Who that?

Oh, that's Cam, old bitch. Yo, that's what you want to do? Niggas be proud to have niggas seconds and thirds. Nah, you don't know Shorty? She used to fuck with murder. You know what I'm saying? That's a stat for niggas. Niggas don't even be really impressed with the girl.

Niggas be more impressed with who she used to be with more than being impressed with who she is. Oh, nah, she was fucking with the nigga and all that. No. That's a stat for niggas. Pause.

Because nigga may not know who you're talking about and then you be like, you say her last boyfriend, you be like, oh, okay, okay. And now let's be totally honest. We know who these females are now because they became great

television stars or reality show stars, but they got on these shows because they fuck with a nigga. They started these shows, the Real Housewives of this or the Basketball Wives of that. They turned out to be funny and so on and so forth and have seasons and seasons and seasons of shows because of their content and their personality. Forget how you originally got there. Oh, yo, that's Kenny Anderson next joint. Oh, okay, okay. That's who that is. Yo, who that?

Oh, she's a... Here's a great example. Yo, who that? Oh, she's a realtor. Where is she, a realtor? Oh, what else? Oh, no, she got her own hair salon. Oh, where? I never heard of her? Oh, what else? Oh, no, she got her own hair salon. Oh, word? I never heard of her.

Oh, no. You know. You might know her because that's someone's ex-girlfriend. Oh, oh, yeah, now I know her. You don't know her from all this other shit that they be trying to pump that you know her from. Yeah. Own hair salon. Oh, she's a realtor.

Oh, she's a businesswoman. Oh, she's a business woman. Yo, that's Patrick Ewing, ex-wife. Oh, now I know who you're talking about. Yo, killer.

So, rate, rate, um, rate, um, Amber, Drea,

and Lori. Yo, one, two, and three. How would you rate them? And what am I rating them on? Bad.

Good? Like, who gets what they want? Or who? No, just look. Who do you think is the best? It looks. It looks? Yeah.

I'm going to go with Amber. Me personally. You know, I like different, you know, little blonde Caesar. Got the fatty. That's why I said get out. Yeah. Yeah. You got to run.

You got to run. Yeah. yeah. You got to run, nigga. He got to run. Yeah, yeah. Like, I don't know if I ever talked about it on the show before, but I told, what's Shorty's name? Andre 3000, baby, mom. Erica Badu. Badu. You know, she's a homie too

but I said I told niggas she can't get nowhere near me with that pussy nowhere that's what she be doing to niggas

is crazy niggas be regular but till they they fuck up they start wearing turbans colorful socks yeah

yeah the tie dye shirts no no no. Yeah, nigga dressed in like the 60s. Yeah, you got to chill. But as far as like, you got to realize, like, I don't know Dre. I met her before. She's cool.

I'm Lori Harvey. I've seen her before. But you got to realize it depends on what you want. And when I say that, Amber Rose, she looks presentable when she goes outside. And she looks nasty in the bedroom. These other two just look like whatever. They don't stay with nobody because if you're not nasty in the bedroom, it's like, I don't need to walk around with you just so you can get more clout.

What you doing when we get home? Drea said her wholeness wore off. She says she's not a hoe no more. It wears off after a while. So she's not considered a hoe anymore. So she says it's like a statute of limitations. That was mean. That was mean.

Where is she from? That was mean. That definitely was East Coast That was mean. Where is she from? That was mean. That definitely was East Coast. She from where is she from? That was mean. She's from PA. Huh? PA. Bars. Bars.

Nigga Don DeMarco. It's a statute of limitation on your wholeness, she said. So she ain't my hoe no more as far as Lori Harvey I don't really know you know to me it depends on who you with you know you got

you got let's say Lori Harvey's with Future Future don't care Future out front Future got a hundred million bitches then when she gets with Franklin from Snowfall he writing seven paragraph letters saying how they're still friends and no one touched his heart such like hers.

They sitting home laughing. They making like, look at like, I caught the nerd. Yeah, man. All type of crazy shit, man. So I don't know. I'm just saying if you actually,

one, two, three, I don't know. I'm just saying, if you're asking one, two, three, I'm just going about looks and who looks like they get nasty. Man, look, let's think about this, man. And both of these are my guys, but you know Kanye and Wiz dated Amber Rose. So, when you got CJ Stroup,

I'm not saying he don't like Amber Rose and also 21 Savage dated her too. I'm not saying he don't like Amber Rose. So when you got CJ Stroup, I'm not saying he don't like Amber Rose and also 21 Savage dated her too. I'm not saying he don't like Amber Rose, but he's young when this happens. He's, you know, just seven years ago. You got to realize because he's a great NFL quarterback now, maybe 23, maybe 24.

Yeah. He may have been 15. Yeah, he may have been 15 years old when this happened. So he's like, oh, shit. I got Wiz. I'm with Wiz's ex. I'm with Kanye's ex. I remember being in 10th grade looking at this.

A lot of people, between the ages of 9 and 20, 23, 24, it's like four different lives because what you're doing at 13, you wasn't doing when you was 10. What you're doing when you're 16, you wasn't doing when you was 13. what you're doing at 13 you wasn't doing when you was 10 when you're doing when you're 16 you wasn't doing when you was 13 what you're doing at 20 and 21 you wasn't doing when you were 16 is this that's a lot of different phases between them ages and so when you 15 years

old and see and then you can offer to take uh wiz's child's mother kan Kanye's ex-girlfriend, home for a ride, you can call it. Yeah, and 21. Don't forget 21. Just drop Amber off. Yeah, and 21, and whoever else,

we don't know. But that's when I'm, you know, I just drop Amber off. And somebody got to say, yo, CJ, you know you're the, you know you're the fucking, the quarterback for the Houston Texans, right?

Oh, yeah, yeah, I'm somebody too. Yeah, I'm just saying. I'm just saying. Yeah, exactly. But big shout out to Amber. Like I said, that's my girl, my homie. And CJ Stroup, look, good luck my homie. And CJ Stout. Look, good luck.

Good luck. Be careful, though. What I'll say is, and this has nothing to do with Amber or CJ Stout, but listen, I'm cool because it's vicious, baby. Be careful. Be careful. Very, very, very, very. Good advice, y'all. Well, that's all the time we have for today

hold on hold on hold on what you think about it stat what you gotta say about it since we never let since we never let you talk some people say what you gotta say about it y'all do be realizing I try to get out of certain stuff

right cause it's like I have a lot of thoughts and I got to remember where I am. I would just say... Yeah, you at the place where you can say what the fuck you want. Say the thoughts. No, I know that, but I'm trying to think of how I'm relaying my message.

Yeah, it's good. It's always like we censoring you guys. Yeah, I mean, I would just say censoring you good yeah I mean I would just say in the best way I can say shout out to both of them but like

reputation is everything like let's not be dumb CJ Stroud is like not I'm not even gonna say next biggest thing because he is the hottest thing right now

especially in the league like a lot of people all of a sudden gonna need rides and wanna be around you and pull up and have a question it's like when you get in the space I have a question it's crazy I'm just saying when you get in the space I just wanted to ask you a question yeah like when you

get in the space you don't realize until you're in it and like you know CJ Stroud like he's just playing football like he ended up being one of like the best rookie quarterbacks. And now he's in this space where he's on like, I would say he's on a great PR run. Like he's been visible

everywhere. Commercials, ads, all-star games, softball games. Like he's being seen everywhere. That's why I said get out because he doesn't, it's nothing against Amber.

It's just he doesn't need anything to go left in any kind of way and in this situation honestly shout out to her because she was nice about it she went on her Instagram and said like

you know it's not anything but sometimes all it takes is one thing for somebody to run with that or like have fun with it like I don't know

it could just be taken a lot of different ways so honestly I would say like she saved him regardless of what he thinks because she just made it like oh it's just cool just a ride that was like the good thing to do with a lot of girls wouldn't be doing that what would they be doing airing somebody out on social media like they do with their exes so you know see but that's but that's a veteran for But that's a veteran for you. That's a veteran female. We call them veterans.

Let's not make this messy early. Yeah. Let's not get nobody in trouble. It was just a ride. And niggas will respect that. But so many people like messy, so he got a good pass is what I'm saying. Cam's saying something.

It was more than a ride. He's saying the veteran took the rap for it. Yeah. I'm just saying. I don't know if it's more or not, but shit, that's the right thing to say. That's a female that understands. I'll give you an example.

She protected y'all. She understands. That's what I'm saying. Not she did. She protected his brand. She protected his brand. And Glo glow really said i'll fuck a bitch up that's a veteran versus a young girl you know what i'm saying right it's that's that's the that's the difference last thing i'll say before i let me say whatever you have to say but the last thing

i'll say is that you made a good point stat it. It's going to be, and I'm not saying this towards Amber, because like I said, Amber's my homie, but CJ Stroud, you may need to talk to Wimby, because like Stat just said, it's all them people who want to be like, yo, I got to ask you a question. I got to ask

you a question. That's what Britney Spears tried to do and got back slapped. Yeah. So talk to Wimby and who he be having around around him and they back slap people without looking when they try to run down on you.

Talk to Wimby's people. Talk to Wimby's people. Last thing I'll just say, yeah, CJ Shadows has a very clean image, which is good for his brand. All it takes is the wrong one. So not even just CJ, y'all just be careful out here. That's all I gotta say. Any last thoughts, Mace?

I'm a chill I'm a chill okay alright I don't want to make the news two days in a row right okay y'all

well that's all the time we have for today thanks for watching and as always it is what it is 2 for 5 2 for 5 2 for 5 2 for 5 2 for 5 We'll be right back.
