And I'm Trista Crick. There we go. We're keeping it old school, man. And we are Goodfellow. Together, you got to know, man. Presented by Draft Kings. it by D.K. The crown is yours. Absolutely. Every time you say draft kings, you got to remember, the crown is in your possession. You have it. Like, you just maybe don't know you have it,

but you have it. You know who else got it? Carla Lay, excuse me, pardon me, baby, bird. She has it right now. And she has been going crazy for your boys, the Portland fire. What a solid. How are we feeling? We're feeling good. We're feeling. We're feeling good. We're like it was the right pick to get her in the expansion draft. I watched the Sue Bird documentary called Clutch, and it was something clutch. There was something else. Anyway, so I was like watching Carla Leight after that doc,

and I'm like, Carla Lake kind of reminds me Sue Bird. She's got that little slick back with the pony curl in the back. She kind of wants to get to her spot. She can get downhill a little bit. She can shoot the tray ball. She likes to, you know, one dribble, two dribble, pull up from deep. And I said, I don't know, kind of giving Sue Bird vibes. And then they go to New York.

Sue Bird's on the broadcast. And I get text messages from you. I get text messages from the crew. Yep. And Sue Burr said, I kind of fuck with the nickname. CoSizi. CoSizi. It looks like the internet is saying that Barker's teammate,

Carol Lake, excuse me, looks like one of ours. And then they interviewed, actually, Carla Leight, hit a step back tray on Stewie for the win, very Sue Bird-like. Come on now. They interview Carla, and then they get her off, and they're like, damn, we were supposed to ask her about baby bird. Yeah. Then Carla takes the showeezy, gets back into her normal cleesies,

and Sue meets up with her, and they say on the thing, Mama Bird, Baby Bird. I just want to say, You're welcome. Thank you very much. We are welcome. And we are, that's going to stick.

I hope you know, moving forward, CL is no longer. It's BB, baby bird, you did? And she's going to keep torturing because she

went to fire. And speaking of the fire, though, they've been like, that crowd to me, that pop every time, I don't give a damn if it's a free throw.

The crowd is tossing babies from one end of the court to the other end of the court. You did? So their record right now is already good enough for me for the expansion. But at the same time, they took a loss to the fever the other day, which is, man, ain't no harm in that.

The fever got it going right now. They dropped. I'm going to say dropped. They waived three players. What do they look like? What do those players look like? Who are they? They look like a Shug Sutton.

They look like our home team, Haley Jones, and they also look like Sister Kay Smiles. I'm not going to say what they. They looked like... They looked like buckets. You did? They looked like buckets to me. You feel me?

Shug something was getting crazy minutes. Kamaya didn't get a lot of minutes, but she's been injured. I thought Haley was working into the rotation. She had some good, good opportunities, transition buckets, playing good defense. And then they brought two players up to standard contracts. Okay. What they look like? They look like hoopers, too.

They look like hoopers. The thing that. I think is hilarious that I did not see until I'm looking at this right this second is the, you know how like when you see a movie with ghosts and like when they leave a room, there's like a puff of like smoke or like some dissipated ghost left? Like they're so white that their, their backgrounds still have the motion of the dissipated ghost in the background, bro. Like none of the other gals had that. You know what I'm saying? You see what I see? It's like a Game of Thrones, White Walker Hayes following. Salute to the Night King. We love you, be it, bro.

They do look like they're from north of the wall. You know, they look like that girl that mess with John Snow, the Redhead. They're both kind of like low-key, yeah, fiery. You feel me? So I understand why the guys. Salute. The internet has been, you know what I mean, on fire about it. So we're going to let the internet, let us know how y'all feel. about the Portland Fire's moves, are they fire or are they cold? You dig? Uh-huh.

Caitlin Clark, my sister, she hit a three in my favorite sister's face and start talking a little trash, man. and they just see it. She got in my sister, Tip Hay's face, and Tip ain't no...

She's not the one. Nor the two. Not nor the, I'm not the one nor the two. Listen, she said it's between us now. Right, right. It's me and you. I think Caitlin's probably one of the most annoying players to play against. No, I mean, if you're...

Oh, you're... Play against, yeah, play against. Yeah, yeah, play against. Yeah, yeah, play against. Yeah. Not to watch play. Like, she's super fun to watch. But if you're going up against her and she's between us now, you're like,

Hold up. Let me roll up those sleeves and get into my stepback bag. And they were going one, one deep three after one deep three. Yes. You did? Literally. Tip, and it was wet. That thing, look, they stay wet.

Between both of them, bro, they jump shots are the wetters. Like, Tilt being wet for what? 20 years. Yes. He did it from downtown. From downtown. And then Tip after the game got caught. on a hot mic basically talking about,

yo, Caitlin Clark be fouling a lot. What'd she say? They're never going to start calling the files on her. If they did, she would never get to play the game. I mean, she would get in. She'd foul out. You know what I mean? All right.

Tip she line. Tip line. She'll play the game. Two quarters. Yeah, like she wouldn't play the whole game. All right. But look, I'm always on tips. I don't give it down.

That's how I do my friendships. I don't care if somebody in the media said, you know what, Trista did this wrong, this wrong, this wrong, I'm going to still stand next to you and say what you're going to do about it. Listen, we all make mistakes. We're all God's creatures. What I will say is someone who's very invested in the success of Tiffany Hayes. Yeah.

I just think maybe stay offline. You know what I mean? Like maybe not bring it. She said, listen, I've done a lot of therapy. I would have been a lot different if I haven't done the therapy. And like maybe some more therapy. to get to the place where we don't feel we need to go online. But listen, we all, I clap back to haters as well.

And sometimes I'm like, it's hard not to. It's like, man, you know. And people were like, yo, I'll take care of. We'll ride a dawn for you, Tip. Yeah. I was like, no, you can't be. Double town. I like it.

No, quote tweet. Yeah, that's real. And you're like, you feel me? Listen, that Caitlin Clark Brigade is not the brigade you really want to be around, not because they're going to do nothing. Not going to do nothing. Exactly. But they will be relentlessly annoying.

Yeah. And it's like, why bring that on yourself? Some people, they welcome. And I feel like my sister, she want to bring them on. John Snow style, speaking of Game of Thrones, with the sword in front of the Army right now. That's Till Hayes. Moving on, though, man. My boy, Jose, man.

Talk about bringing the sword. Boy, my boy need to put his sword away. You feel me? No powers. Do the actual sword? Put it away, bro. The media is like the battle of the bastards. Right.

And the media is the big crowd. And it's him as John Snow with the one sword, just trying to fight him off. Right. Because they said, they want to know what's up, what's up with our number one overall pick, what they say? And will impact whether she'll be starting going forward? Is that important to you or to everybody? I'm just asking a question that people, it's been a conversation. So, yep.

I think we're headed that direction. Jose. My brother, Jose, you need a little more media training, bro. And you know how you know it was bad, Jose? Because the sister in the third row couldn't compose herself. She was like, oh, I know he didn't just say that. Bro, you ain't got to lay into every reporter with a challenging question. What's you thinking about, my doubt?

He does. It's giving college coach that hasn't acclimated to the W yet. Like, these are questions you're going to have to answer and not answer them in a spicy, sassy way. You don't need to have the verbal snap, snap, snap with it. Is that important to you? Right. My boy having three snaps and Z formation for every question, y'all guys.

We got to go to break. And after this, we're going to make our Draft King's Picks of the week. Hey, y'all, it's Kelly Clarkson with Wayfair. Ever order furniture online and wonder what if?
