Starting point is 00:00:00 I don't know if you're aware, but over the course of the history of this show, we've ranked a lot of things. We have. I have aware. I'm not sure what we haven't ranked. What's the weirdest thing we ranked? Cake, I think. Not even weird. Most random.
Starting point is 00:00:14 I think cake. Yeah. We've even ranked cake. I was thinking NBA players of different sorts, but we've also ranked cake. With that being said, there's one thing that we've somehow never done an episode about. And it's actually, especially at this moment in this time when certain players are playing the way they are, kind of the most interesting thing we could rank today. And as you guys see by the title, that is us ranking. The top 30 offensive players in the NBA, we're going to sit down and rank just the
Starting point is 00:00:37 offensive side of the ball who is number one through 30. Very difficult atop this year. Honestly, the top was kind of fine for me. It was the lower half of like, because then once you get to like 15 through 30, then it really starts to be like, okay, am I putting this player on here just because I like him? more like how are like my biases coming into this list exactly so we'll get into what exactly means to all of us but just the offensive side of the ball no defensive production I suppose we'll probably talk about some elements of like playoff rising and like moments what you're done
Starting point is 00:01:11 yeah that shit like that but just offensive value as a score playmaker rebound or whatever it means to you just that who's the best all right let's do it man cue the intro music oh actually before i cue the intro music i got to remind you guys by the time you guys watch this there will be a community post up on youtube that it will be a community post forever episode 200 that comes out on Monday. We are doing a big Q&A episode about a bunch of basketball topics, but also mostly non-basketball topics. So if you guys want to hear us talk about whatever questions you have about us, the show, our lives, anything you want, go to the community posts on our YouTube channel and leave your question and we'll respond to those ones that get
Starting point is 00:01:46 the most likes or whatever else you find interesting. Please don't waste this opportunity. I think this is like maybe the second or third. This is like the second or third Q&A that we had. Don't ask us no bullshit, man. That's just real conversations. You get to have your question answered by the God, Mojo, 99. Go ahead, please. Be into deep thought mode. This is y'all time to get it off, man.
Starting point is 00:02:10 Get it off. That'll be the episode 200. We'd mostly be a big, huge Q&A getting all your guys' questions out there. Opportunity. Now that would be said, cue the intro music. Let's make some players. It's a Chris, bro, mean, mean, green. We're throwing it back.
Starting point is 00:02:29 That's crazy. He was bragging. The cranium is crazy. Oh my God. Crown eaters rejoice. So like usual, these rankings, we'll be revealing five by five until we get our entire top 30. And like we started last time, if you guys saw our young player rankings, B-Soles is now going to be the judge of the rankings. As you guys see on the screen right now, there's zeros next to our names.
Starting point is 00:03:00 He will be assigning points, adding and taking away points based on whatever he wants, I guess. Let's get over five points today, fellas. It's going to be on me. You got to be much more willing to give out points. What was the, like, who was the highest? Like two. It was like two to zero to negative one. Yeah, you was in the negative.
Starting point is 00:03:18 I was in debt. So based on your takes, whatever. I shouldn't even say based on anything. It's whatever the fuck people's feels like. We'll see what he gets points for. But what that means says, get into it. The first five of my list is at 30, Lamello Ball, 29 Deeran Fox, 28, Jimmy Butler, 27, J-dub, Jalen Williams,
Starting point is 00:03:38 26, Desmond Bain. The bottom eight to 10 are the ones I have the least confidence in by far. It's a bunch of guys that are like elite second options, or in some cases maybe like low-level first options, guys that like aren't the premier guys that are so jumbled up to me that I sat here for hours tweaking this. At some point I had been like 21. than having number 26.
Starting point is 00:03:59 Jada was like 17, 927. Like the ranges here are so big that I'm not mad if you guys like Bimily disagree with any of these. Yeah, I think I'll start off. So Jimmy Butler didn't make my list.
Starting point is 00:04:09 Same. Just because. I understand why. Wait, he didn't make your list? No. Okay. It's a point. Damn it.
Starting point is 00:04:17 Wait, wait, wait, Bezos. He didn't make my list either. Hey! It's a point. You know what? Negative points. I'm not you're being on your list.
Starting point is 00:04:25 Celtics fans Perfect I hate him yeah he did like Jimmy didn't didn't make my list obviously because of the injury and the last couple times
Starting point is 00:04:34 that we've seen him we've been like yo please do more offensively and Jimmy's like nah I'm good and like there's been like that struggle of of wanting him to scale up
Starting point is 00:04:44 but him really really buying in to doing like the other stuff the really big connecting stuff within the warrior stuff within the warrior system which is obviously there you go
Starting point is 00:04:53 and that's what I'm saying super impressive like I get why you're you put it there and he genuinely can fit on any team on any roster and can do all the things to make that team better. It's just been a long time. I have no idea what the Jimmy Butler experience is going to be moving forward. He's the thing. If he's scaling up and being what we used to see where he drug team to the finals and was his playoff riders that can give you 40, he'd be top 15. This is that version of him, I think, that like you said, he isn't quite the same level of
Starting point is 00:05:20 the on-ball score that he once was, isn't going to be taking as many shots as he once was. and maybe that bothers you because you've seen old Jimmy and you have those memories of what you know who's capable of in his prime, that's fine. That guy's gone. And now we have just an incredibly impactful second, third option guy that does all the little things. And now we praise Derek White for being such a great
Starting point is 00:05:38 offensive player this year without his shot going in. Jimmy Butler is of the same ilk. Great rebounder, great playmaker this year. Very efficient rim finisher can play on or off ball, can set screens, can be in the dunker spot, can spot up from three, can run in transition. He does everything you want as a complimentary star that that's why we love J-Dub.
Starting point is 00:05:55 He's very similar to me. His offensive player is J-Dub. In fact, there's a lot of ways that he's better. I went J-Dub one spot higher. I struggle with him a little bit for a different reason we get into just because the ceiling
Starting point is 00:06:04 of the way he can do on ball and the scoring explosions at this point might be a little bit higher. But I think you could very feasibly argue that Jim Bueller should be even higher than this. Yeah, yeah, I agree. I think this range 26 to 30, really you can extend it to like 26
Starting point is 00:06:18 to maybe 34-35 can be shuffled in any type of way possible and it'll make sense. Like I see it's something like you have lamello ball here he's by far like the least efficient dude here but it's fucking valid.
Starting point is 00:06:30 Yeah, he barely gets on there and it's kind of a similar thing where like him and Fox are similar to me that where actually no they're not similar they're actually very opposites and I'm saying it but they're like flawed players in Fox's case
Starting point is 00:06:42 he hasn't asked to do a whole lot this year so that's going to make people want to take him lower because his accounting stats aren't very good for his standards you know but that's because he's just playing in a team that has chosen to empower multiple ball handling
Starting point is 00:06:52 make him have his lowest features in a long time, make him play offball, focus on defense more, and do a lot of small stuff as a secondary player rather than go run high pick and roll 25 times a game. So his numbers might not look that impressive, but he still has immense value in that role. I feel similarly with Lamello that his numbers don't look that impressive because he's just a horrible score inside the arc. It's really terrible. But he's so impactful that he has to make it here. The way he gets a team out in transition immediately, the way he gets a high volume three-point
Starting point is 00:07:19 shot now over the top of the arc that really stresses a defense and allows. stuff to open up for other people. Like, they're both kind of there for reasons outside of just their points, rebounds assist that I think are really important to their team. Similarly for Jimmy Butler. Yeah, I agree. I love the Bain placement. Yeah, I want to put him higher.
Starting point is 00:07:34 Know what I thought about with him? I'll put him a little bit higher. Yeah, I thought about it. One, he's just been amazing this year. In the second half of the year, in Palos was blowing up, so was he. It really is the thing where I look at him in J-dub and I say, okay, if J-dub had Bain's offensive with J-dub's defense, but that make him a better or worse player, probably better.
Starting point is 00:07:53 Bain's a better shooter. Probably a more skilled driver. Also a pretty good passer, which Jadab is. I don't know why I would put Bain below Jadub, even though you kind of have that in your head that J-dub's all-N-B-A player. Bain's just like forgotten third option. It's just like the all-around defensive versatility,
Starting point is 00:08:09 probably, and like how you can ask him to do literally anything and everything on the court, and he can look at that task. And like, okay, I can do some with this compared to Bain. There's obviously literally limitations with that. But I agree with you. When it comes to just straight up, Offensive talk, though, this is not a bad place. I didn't do it.
Starting point is 00:08:24 So, spoiler, Palo's liar. I almost put Bain above Palo and Wagner. I was really tempted. I almost feel like maybe I should. Maybe I'm wrong, but I decided not to last second. I think there's some argument that he's a better offensive player than those two guys. Wow. That's not crazy.
Starting point is 00:08:38 Yeah, it's not crazy. I didn't do it, obviously. I changed my mind last second with all the tinkering I'm talking about. But I think you would really, especially with the whole season thinking about it, if you're going to really index on Palo's struggles, you could feasibly argue that Bain's the best offensive player on that team. It's not crazy to say that. You're ridiculous.
Starting point is 00:08:53 Next five. Okay. Next five. Very different. 30. I have Zion Williamson. 29. Tyler Hero.
Starting point is 00:09:00 28. 83 point, man. 27. Seacum. And 26. I have con-connibble. Just the best shooter in the NBA. Hey, man.
Starting point is 00:09:08 If this list is any indication of what Donovan's thoughts are, y'all are going to call me the biggest concordible glazer in the world. Are you dead ass? Now, I will say, I cannot, when it comes to how I think about the Charlotte Hornets, I cannot look at them and be like, yeah, like Concutable's the best offensive player. It's fair if you want to do so. Like obviously, like, their offense is obviously looks like so much more different with La Mello Ball in versus out in the lineup and all the metrics and numbers point to that as well.
Starting point is 00:09:36 Everyone's just so much more free and all that. But con is a singular player. He is like the better offensive player. But when it comes to everything else, that's like has to do with it. Not putting the ball in a basket. Lamella ball is just like, it's hard to, it's hard to have that conversation. And that's for Zion Williamson, bro. I don't know if you guys have him on this list.
Starting point is 00:09:52 But I know that if I put the ball more often in Zion Williams' hand than what the pelicans are doing right now, I know for sure he's going to walk into 25, 5 and 6, maybe 7 rebounds a game. For 27 games a year. Listen, man, he's been healthy. You can't say that right now. Come on now. This is the healthiest he's been in like basically fucking forever. Yeah, and you're not getting the 25, 5. Offensively, he's still at historic levels when it comes to, or he's slowly getting back to historic levels when it comes.
Starting point is 00:10:19 is efficiently. He's still very good. I don't know about historic levels anymore, but I know what you're saying that if you went back to playing point Zion and really empowered him in a way the pelicans clearly have not, he is still the same Zion.
Starting point is 00:10:29 He's not like, it's not like he lost a step and can't jump high anymore. He still is Zion, so I understand you. Does anyone else have Zion? I think he was my first cut, which I really should have had him
Starting point is 00:10:37 over Lamello, I think, over Fox, but he and who else was in my one of my first cuts? I have, him and Denny were our first cuts. I have like eight people on my first cuts. Like this last five was insane. tough. Oh, it was Zion, Tray Young, and Denny
Starting point is 00:10:51 were the three had a cut. Is Zion on your list on? No, one of my first cuts, Trades, one of my first cuts as well. Yeah, it was tough. Okay. Well, I'm a Zion fan, so. Freaks unite.
Starting point is 00:11:09 I'm glad you, like, I'm glad you claim it, and I'm glad you understand who you are. I'm glad you understand you're the resident gooner. Yes. Shout to Pascal Siyahka, man. He's over here playing his hardest over there. in Indiana, don't know when we give a damn. Yeah, shout of them. I don't think Siakam out of bio and hero should be on the list, but I respect it just because
Starting point is 00:11:25 these guys are obviously all close. Conman. I think he's way more talented than Lamello as an offensive player. I think obviously the on-off numbers are what they are, and I think that's, it shows how impactful Lamello is outside of his scoring because the playmaking and everything we talked about and why he's on his list. I think
Starting point is 00:11:41 it also has to do with the fact that there's zero good playmakers on the roster outside of him. Do they truly live and die by him? I just think the one, I think people overplay the amount that Lamello sets up con canipple and vice versa. People act like Khan just stands in the corner and catches the ball that Lamello sets him up every time. Like, you watch these games. They're not just like not running the ball through Khan.
Starting point is 00:12:01 He does plenty of ball handling, plenty of driving, plenty of creation. I think that's underestimated. And that's part from just like obvious biases being a spot up shooter as a rookie. He already does a ton on the ball. I think his scoring impact inside the arc is incredible and already just as impactful as any elite sharp sure you'll find. I think he's truly already elite offensive player that for this team,
Starting point is 00:12:22 they need Lamello's playmaking incredibly bad because behind him is a bunch of non-playmakers. But I think if you put them on 30 other teams across the league and put Lamello every team, Kahn on every team, you would see most teams rise more with Kahn. Yeah, yeah. I think I would agree with that. Lemello is just a weird-ass player.
Starting point is 00:12:38 And for this specific situation scenario, I think he's just a little bit more, I don't even say more valuable, but when it comes to what the shot one is lacking, considering what they like yeah it's they need it more so right now in this this singular year like he is the more valuable offensive player for me personally it's but my thing is so you have concan a lot higher than doesn't bain i'm talking about a lot higher than doesn't bade i'm not that's kind of crazy to me that right there is kind of crazy and if you want to say i should but bain a lot higher
Starting point is 00:13:08 go for it but i i i i put on dangerously high i think because that's like yeah okay dangerously high's hilarious got them top 10 bro no Dangercy High Island. I thought I thought I was doing a little bit too much with respecting Khan. Hell no. I think Con is an incredible officer player. Wow. I think you're hating actually.
Starting point is 00:13:27 How about that? You driving him to the airport? High pie? I ring him like I would drive him to his new home that I bought him. Oh my God. Did you bought for him? All right, Donovan, who you got? At 30, I have Denny.
Starting point is 00:13:41 29. I have Shingoon. 28, I have Franz. At 27, I have Pascal Seacum. And at 26, I have Kat. Damn, all international players. I will say, let's get him out of here. I'm not team world.
Starting point is 00:13:54 I will say. As an immigrant, I'm going to give you a point. I immediately, like the hardest name on this list to put on here that for some reason, I just can't quit it. I was tying him out. I was last night, I just could not find a reason to not, to leave him off. Shengu probably shouldn't be on this list. but like
Starting point is 00:14:19 no he should be but he hasn't earned it but he should be and like I wanted to put him on this list and I was just like you know what he's going to be here regardless
Starting point is 00:14:28 so there's that point I understand that the numbers are the numbers but there's just something about Shangoon in his game and the way that something about Flacco yeah
Starting point is 00:14:36 feel safe so he's on this list Franz we've just seen a lot of inconsistency with the with the injury that like I just I would like to see Franz play for 50 straight games.
Starting point is 00:14:49 And really, really, really cement his status with as like one of the best offensive players. Seacom, like you said, every year, Seacom is just going to come in. He's going to average 20. He's going to be great. Like he's going to have some of these high moments where he can go out and get you 30, 35. He's one of the most consistent scoring options that we have in the league.
Starting point is 00:15:11 And then Kat, just offense? Kat's awesome. Yeah. Yeah. Okay. I had him to slow it first. too then I was like and what I do I had him really low and then I was like damn I am hating on carlithy town really around here I went 26 so the reason why I didn't have him hire is because
Starting point is 00:15:27 there are times where especially this year where the assertiveness isn't isn't 100% there and there's times where he can take advantage of mismatches and he's not really doing that there also him as a driver when it's good it's really really good when he's bad he is completely out of control. He gets so many offensive files and so many of his of his tiki-tack files come from him just barreling down down the lane with no purpose or no really idea
Starting point is 00:15:58 of where like the next step is going to go. And so that's where the drawback comes with Kat. But we're just talking about the seven-foot guy who can shoot as well as as anybody and can space the floor. And when he's in his bag, can play down low in the post, can drive by, five,
Starting point is 00:16:17 pose a lot of mismatches. That he should be on the list, obviously, but there's just a lot of stuff, even off the third. Yeah, that's what I had in there too. I don't like his style of play. It's like,
Starting point is 00:16:27 I don't really want cat on my team in terms of like what you got to pay him, what it realistically means to have a Carltonutown's led team and like how you got to play through and to maximize him. I don't enjoy his play style. And I think the drawbacks that you just outlined are real. But then I was like,
Starting point is 00:16:40 I got to get real. He is the spacing he provides. For all the fucking minging and crying we've done about the Knicks this season. The fact they're still one of the best offensive teams in the league is in large part because they have a weapon like cat at the five that does give you a crazy offensive floor. So I decided to bump him up a little bit, but he's not like top 15 or anything. And I feel like some people are going to like see a Wembe super high and be like,
Starting point is 00:17:02 why isn't Kat as good offensively as one be, you know, like just offensively. So I still had him a good amount lower for everything you outlined. But I had to kind of meet the middle a little bit. Yeah, fuck all that. I'm not going to laugh. I left him off my list. I was definitely like hating. And I could have put him over like Todd.
Starting point is 00:17:16 but I feel like if I'm just building a like consistent offense and my number one goal to enter a year is I want to be like number one an offensive rating by far. Something like Tyler Hero would be just more conducive to that. That's not true. What? That's not true. That's a crazy. Bro, cat is down efficiency wise fucking all across the board, bro. He fixed it.
Starting point is 00:17:37 Last 20 games, he's up more efficient again. Well, great. This is an 82 game season. I love that. But I'm talking about throughout the entirety of the year. You're right. He has been much better across all the first. two, but over the last 20 games, but I'm talking about overall throughout this year,
Starting point is 00:17:50 maybe next year I can have a conversation to be on this list, but this year, no, without like bleak things have been all around. Yeah, but I'm not, I'm not digging people for having a slow starts the seasons happen all the time. If we have years and years and we know that's not who he is, and then he shows us not who he is, I'm inclined to give them a benefit of doubt that it's just a rough stretch. I did the same thing with Palo. I put him up higher based on the recent stretch where, like, we know he's not the least efficient shooter in the league, like he was the first 40 games.
Starting point is 00:18:13 Same thing with Kat, we knew he wasn't that terrible from three especially. I gave him benefit of the doubt because he turned it around for almost a 30 game sample now. That the only thing I disagree with is the Tyler Hero nod that he's more conducive to the best offensive league. That's fucking crazy. I think if I'm like making a team right now as he speak and I want to be number one in offensive rating and have like the most consistent offense possible, like there's just a lot less of, there's a lot less that I have to rely on with someone like Carranti Towns or something like Tyler Hero than some like Carr Anthony Towns. Like I think. Wait, you don't think Kat can be a part of like. the number one offensive.
Starting point is 00:18:47 Of course he has been before. Less than Tyler. If I'm, if I want to be the number one offensive league and I'm like building a team right now, I think I would be, I would have an easier time doing that around Tyler Hero with a side piece versus Carlinthe Towns having to treat him as like one of the best players on the team. Last 20 games, Carlton Towns has 66% true shooting.
Starting point is 00:19:05 62% from 2, 39% from 3, 20 points per game. Hero will never do that a day in his life. You know, I like the blade dating. So I'm going to give you a point. Oh my God. Tyler here. 20 pounds of muscle. I'm sick of Tyler Hero. Yeah. Let's get these points out, man.
Starting point is 00:19:21 I like Tomi Hero to go to gym. I don't like this. Tyler Hero needs to get some fucking muscle on his frame. I don't like this man. I'm tired of Tyler Hero, man. But Tyler Hero's good. He's good, of course. Yeah. But like, he's fine. Do you think Tyler Hero would get more respect to fused buff?
Starting point is 00:19:32 I think he'd be better if he was buff. I just don't think we like Tyler Hero. I think of watching a drive and like have to finish around people and have this light frame. That's being built like Jackman. Moe who got 25 and 21? That's me. At 25, I have, oh, is you.
Starting point is 00:19:51 He just sat with it for a second. At 25, I have Lamello. At 24, I have con. At 23, I have Lari. At 22, I have Darius Garland. At 21, I have James Hardin. 21, James Hard. I love that you have Garland and Hardin right next to each other.
Starting point is 00:20:09 I think that's like one of the more accurate things, only because I did the exact same shit. Larry Mark and I'm not going to lie. I didn't put them on my list. I probably should have put on my list. and he was one of the first cuts for me. But it's just so hard to, like, think about Utah. They're, like, competitive for, like, 15, 20 games at the start of the year, every single year.
Starting point is 00:20:27 And then they just, like, die off. It's so weird. But I think this is very accurate to have, like, marking and can nipple and ball, like, right next to each other. Now, I will say. Hardening, Garland, should be a tier higher. I don't know. So, Khan. I wanted to put Khan at the top of this tier.
Starting point is 00:20:44 and I was like, you know what, let me just slow down for a second. But if you're telling me, like, right now, gun to my head, we have to go to a playoff series and out of these five guys, who am I taking, I'm taking con. I just, the only reason why- The guy you never seen in the playoffs. That's one. Also, Lari, too. Yeah, so I've seen Hardee in the playoffs, don't want that. I've seen, I haven't seen Lauerie in the playoffs.
Starting point is 00:21:08 Lamello also hasn't really shown it in the two playing games that he's had. True. And then Darius, in the, in the, You're the only one I've heard referenced Lamella's playing performances. Because we've done it 10 times. He must have had some money down on that pitch. That's why he talks about it all the time. He must have been on his last.
Starting point is 00:21:25 That's his 50. Mind you. Mind you. The NBA has done a disservice to its fans by not having playing stats readily available. I promise you if they did, then other people would remember. But like the two instances that we've had of Lamella Ball in a like winner go home situation, he hasn't played well. He shot terribly.
Starting point is 00:21:46 And those are the only two data points that we have. So yes, I'm going to bring them up right now. All I'm saying is that for Khan, I want to see him just do it in the playoffs. I'm not doubting him that he can do it. I just want to see it. And then as soon as it happens, you are on the fast track to be in the next tier. Yeah. No, I understand.
Starting point is 00:22:02 Actually, I misremembered it. I lowered Khan last second. So Khan is in this tier for me as well. Originally, I had him in the tier above when I was getting dangerous. But I agree with you. He's in this tier around the same spot. Yeah. Okay.
Starting point is 00:22:10 Okay, fair. Hardin and Garland. So Garland just came back to Clippers. Killing it. Killing it. So with that being said, I'm giving him credit
Starting point is 00:22:17 that I can think of him as the dearest Garland of previous years and not the one that was hurt early in the season because we know he was dealing with injuries. That's not who he was.
Starting point is 00:22:24 Clearly top 20. And same thing with Hardin. Have you seen Hardin? Have you seen Harton how good he's been since he's been in the Cavaliers? Like he had that stretch before he got shirt the Clippers after the hot star
Starting point is 00:22:32 where the efficiency really fucking died. He has been killing it again as a score with Cavs. The playmaking is amazing. They're both, and shooting they bring, to me they're both at least a tier above. The Hardin stuff, since Hardin left Philly, the efficiency has really dropped off the cliff.
Starting point is 00:22:48 Like, he's seen the resurgence in Cleveland, but before that, it just wasn't there. And so that's why I kind of had him here at 21 is because I think as we start moving up, there are going to be a lot of guys who are number one options and complete, like, offensive engines of very, very solid teams. I don't think you can ask that apart at this moment. I don't think you can ask James Harden to be an offensive engine of a team that is going to be a top six seed in in their conference like that. Yeah, we're seeing it now. I think you can ask him to be the best player.
Starting point is 00:23:23 They have Donovan Mitchell. Exactly. So what is the engine mean? He's not the leading score. He can't be leading scorer. But is there three more impactful playmakers in the entire NBA? I'm saying like him being like the best play. He's not the best offensive player on that team.
Starting point is 00:23:34 All right now that you know there. But is there three better playmakers in the NBA than him right now? I don't know. Maybe maybe maybe whatever he's in that conversation and to me that carries a lot of weight. Yeah you don't have to be like the best player on your team to be considering it. Like you wouldn't say that about I mean obviously like Tyrese Halliborne was a best player on Indiana Pacers and he was like the engine of that other thing too. So it's like kind of different conversations. We're going to Jamal Murray top 15 I'm guessing like Jamal Murray is a hundred percent.
Starting point is 00:24:01 Yeah, 110 percent. I agree. I think Harding can have similar value. Yeah. You just hate not harder for no reason. We another reason. Yeah. Life more and vitrials. Is it
Starting point is 00:24:11 B. So is it lifelong vitro If you've seen somebody Pissed down their leg For 10 straight years In the playoffs Whenever you ask them to be good at the thing that they are Because he's not a great defender Right
Starting point is 00:24:22 So he really is like he's made his Offensive list Exactly He's made his Wait say it again Offensive list Offensive list His value comes on the offensive side of the ball
Starting point is 00:24:32 You are an offensive player Can you provide us some offense In the biggest moments that we ask you to And James Harden repeatedly tells you year and then you're out. Actually, no, I don't want to do that. I better now. So are y'all making the case that he should be like way higher? No, I'm not saying higher, but higher. It was just this process behind that. That's it. And mind you, we're going to do all this. They're going to have them at 19. They're going to have
Starting point is 00:24:54 them at 18, two, two, three spots higher. I got a meeting here. And James Hardin is like, he's, he's cool. This is also 18. This is 18 games, right? That he's playing along. He's had a great season outside of that. obviously he had a rough stretch shooting wise before he got traded. We're not going to forget the first 30 games where he was looking like vintage James Hardin and we were talking about how it's the best scoring he's done in years. James Hardin was not fucking got off before Cleveland. What do you mean 18 games?
Starting point is 00:25:19 18 games in which like the numbers are like crazy crazy because he's been he has been very, very good in Cleveland. What I'm saying is James Harder right now and for the last five years is going to be a guy that is very much tasked to the secondary role on a on a team that is going to, is going to actually do a lot of things. As we start to get higher in this list, I think a majority of these people can be not only that secondary option,
Starting point is 00:25:47 but can also scale up and provide number one production for a team that is going on. A second option I can scale up and get 90 is a definition of James Hardin to me. I agree with you. Everything you said I agree with, I just think that's, you just have said the guys above him do that.
Starting point is 00:26:01 I think it also applies to Hardin. Yeah, I would need to see a name of him. I better not see a single second option above him and a single playoff sitter. above me. A little better off the playoffs demons. I think, I think out of all of those people in that tier, I think I would rather have some of these other guys over James Hardin. And I think right that's very fair. The only thing that tripped me up was how you're talking about. He is like not necessarily the engine of the team or the best player. And I think you don't have to be
Starting point is 00:26:28 both of those things at all. I think when I think specific, well, maybe not specifically for Cleveland, but with Cleveland, when both of your stars as basically a lot of stars, but like, when DeMitch is also a very offensive-leaning player. For sure. And you have James Harden. Like that team is going to go with DeMits. Like I think James Hardin. What do you mean by that?
Starting point is 00:26:49 They're both getting, what do you mean? He's just finding new ways to hate. Yeah, what does that mean? They're both incredibly valuable. There are two-star players, the balls in their hands. I don't see any reason to diminish Hardin's importance come playoff time, especially when you're saying you're down on him because you don't believe in playoff time.
Starting point is 00:27:02 Then to say they go as far as DeMitch is, both those things can't be true. Either he matters a lot or then why would you dig him for the the playoff performance. Because whether he, he matters because obviously you have the standing in in the team, that's one. Two, you also kind of matter because AT&T, I need to see what he's going to do as well. Three, it matters, but it's also baked in as like, I'm already expecting you to fail us in the playoffs.
Starting point is 00:27:28 Now, whether or not you meet my expectations of failing in the playoffs, that does not, that does not remove the stink from the fact that you still failed. And so when that happens, when James Hardin does the James Hardin playoff stuff, that's going to be a problem. And it's he's going to have a bad playoff game. I'm going to come up here and I'm going to be like, wow, we saw James Hardin in the playoffs. And then I just going to be like, well, you know, it's just like we've seen it over and over
Starting point is 00:27:57 so you can't really expect it. Like you were wrong to even think to even think about it in the first place. We can't, we can't do that. We can't do that. I mean, he belongs on this here for a reason. We're not arguing to get you. Show their list. Show their list.
Starting point is 00:28:09 Show their list. Because if they are not, if they are not like, if James Hardin is not 15 or higher. What? What do you want to ask one question? This is me using a big word. Do you think you're over indexing on one game? People. Game.
Starting point is 00:28:29 Or like a couple playoffs. Pop your shit, big. On one. They over indexing. Never the little one. I'm over indexing. Do you think you're being on one game? Do you think you're being on the public?
Starting point is 00:28:39 We better see Dave's heart of top 15 our list. What the fuck? No. We've gone, we've gone through this in previous episodes, but is the way that he ended the 25 season poorly? Yes. Did he end the 24 season poorly?
Starting point is 00:28:54 Yes. 23? Correct. 22? Correct. 21. We will give him grace because of the hamstring injury. That's fine.
Starting point is 00:29:02 2020? Yes. 2019? Yes. 2018. Every single one of these years, he's going. out sad in the playoffs every single year i feel like his playoff stuff is very very heavily documented
Starting point is 00:29:12 and so to to sit here and be like are you over indexing hell no i don't think i'm over indexed okay you know what that's that's a point man i love this hate even if it's not hate it's not hate no i love the energy so i'll give you this so much i get it off for no it's not hate i don't i don't disagree with you it's not we don't disagree with you it's just the level to which you kingdom for it. He just went out your way to go ahead and punch the fuck out of it. No, I didn't. We didn't say that he's top 15. Listen, I
Starting point is 00:29:43 I promise you, and this is why I'm so upset right now. I will take the hater label at any moment in time. I am 100% justified here. This is not crazy. No, it's not. This is not ridiculous. You sound like you want to drop him. And this is not hate it. It's not ridiculous at all.
Starting point is 00:29:58 I'm not I'm not saying it's ridiculous. I'm not saying I'm not saying I'm not saying I'm just 21 is far to fall from that. We'll see who you have above him. I just think I have a war than three spots above. So it's not like it's just nip-beying. I'm not going to lie.
Starting point is 00:30:10 If Mo has hardened in this next like tier, I'm taking a point off moment. Let's go ahead and reveal it. Boom. 25 of the little ball right under him. Remember I had con can'tipal. 24. Keontade Joy, he had the ascension. He's absurdly efficient in the paint.
Starting point is 00:30:27 He can be. There's a three-point shot now. Listen, man. Exactly. It's just fair. When it comes to high-octane young guards right now, he's at the top. the top tier of that list. 23, Desmond Bain, talked about it before.
Starting point is 00:30:38 22, Dalyland Johnson and 21, LeBron. LeBron. I'm not going to lie, it's been stuck on my mind for the last couple of minutes. Can you just re-explain why BAM was in your, on your list? Because I got outside of the 83-point game, like, he's been cheeks this year, Doc Michael. He's having a good last end of the season so far. But yeah, I didn't consider him for top 30.
Starting point is 00:30:59 I just looked, he was shooting, he's shooting 44% on the year. Yes, he completely changed. change his play style, which is why he's shooting 44% on the year. He's a lot more like jump shot oriented and mid-range oriented, three-point oriented, obviously too. But when it comes to Julius Randall now, he's shooting 31%
Starting point is 00:31:16 from three on six attempts. Stop looking at that. He kind of played that Julius Randall now. He's like this big four that takes people off the dribble from behind the arc. It's a completely different player. I will say it also is funny now because he can just talk crazy. I know. And he's like, yo man, it's hard to get 60 in this
Starting point is 00:31:31 league. What can I tell you? Why do you? Why do you waiting this long from to mention bam no oh it was because you were like um you you you snub lorri off your list oh okay okay you snub someone else i'm like are they better than bam i think when it that's very fair that's very far i did snub lorry but that's because like larry just so not top of mind and i don't know what he like his his ceiling is so hard for me to imagine when utah just automatically every single year just gives him the guillotine every single year but around a certain i run a certain time yeah so when it comes to Bam, like seeing his offensive evolution, although it hasn't been the best,
Starting point is 00:32:07 and he's like more so pissed us all off throughout the entirety of the year. Really lasts like two years. He's a good offensive player at the end of the day. He makes your offense generally better when every reasoned for it because of the spacing that he tries to provide. And that's a point of. But no, listen, listen, listen. It's the ability to have the ball in his hands and not like panic overly at all. Not too many teams of.
Starting point is 00:32:31 He can dribble. He can drive at. Yeah. Bieselke, can you spell guillotine? No. I'm not even going to drive. I didn't include Jalen Johnson on my list. Just off, bro.
Starting point is 00:32:42 What? The fuck, you didn't include Jalen Johnson? There's a lot of All-Stars in this league. He's an All-Star too. There's a lot of them. You didn't count the one All-Star. He was 31? What?
Starting point is 00:32:51 He was 31. You did that on purpose. I swear to God you did that on purpose, too. You did it on purpose. You did not go to sleep at night. It's thinking you're fine. Him and Counted George. Listen, man, somebody's got to score.
Starting point is 00:33:01 Get the fuck. Off my face. No way you didn't put Jailin on this list. You're lying to me. It's just like a good player. I don't just like him. He's fine to be in the bottom 10, but like there's a lot of good all-stars. You're lying to me, man.
Starting point is 00:33:13 A lot of good players out there. Whatever. Somebody's got to score. And it's Jaylon Johnson and Keanuthage George on their teams. Nobody else to score. Please get to. Somebody's got to do it. He hasn't been tapped in with Cedem McCollum as a late brother.
Starting point is 00:33:26 Walking people down. Nikila Alexander Walker. I'll hear his names that aren't Jalen Johnson. 25 Crownty Towns. 24, bronze Wagner, 23, Palo Bencaro, 22, conchinibble, and 21, LeBron James. Okay. Interesting tier.
Starting point is 00:33:46 All right. I lied to you. I said I moved out higher. I ended up putting it down 25. Is everyone one spot higher, actually? That's funny. I misremembered my list. I thought I had him like 20.
Starting point is 00:33:54 Okay. I like the LeBron placement. I think this tier right here, Paulo, I didn't put them on my list, obviously, because I think if you have them on your team, you're just asking yourself not to have an elite offense. Like, this is what you've seen over the last few. years of his career. Never not once in his life
Starting point is 00:34:08 has he been like an efficient shooter or decent from that range at all. You know, like... So yeah, you are the Palo-Hator, the show now. First, you're in Payton both of him. Now you said if you have him on your team, you're not going to have an elite offense. You can't. I didn't have Palo on my list either, but like, that was hate. Isn't it crazy? In combination with how
Starting point is 00:34:26 you glaced Tyler Hero earlier this? No, don't ever put the allegation against me. I never gave him. So here's that. So last year's Palo would have been, I think, around here. Terrible start to the year, obviously. Uncharacteristically bad for a young player to be shooting that poorly for that long. Then he has his comments that I had to lock in.
Starting point is 00:34:43 I focus more on the right things. Now he's been killing it as a slasher. And actually he's providing value as a guy that does more than just get to the bretho-thro line, shooting better. Everything's coming off of the fact that the driving is so much better that for these last 15 games, I like this version of Palo Bancaro. It's exactly what you want from him focusing more on the slashing. Because of that unique amount of circumstances,
Starting point is 00:35:02 the timeline of the team, his age, the strangeness of the slump, the terrible coaching he has, everything that goes into hell of uncarras performance and understanding it, I'm inclined to give him benefit for the doubt that this is pretty real. We'll see how the three-point shot
Starting point is 00:35:17 if it falls off again. He's not even shooting great in his last 15 games. It's evened out. He's still scoring. He's most efficient of his career despite the three-point shot being average. I'm inclined to believe this is real and he's going to carry this forward
Starting point is 00:35:27 and have whatever a good playoff series looks for him, don't care. But I'm inclined to believe that he'll carry this in the next year and look back on the track, of what we wanted to see, which is a slightly better version of what we had last year.
Starting point is 00:35:36 I agree. So that to me is around 23, and that's just good enough to be above Franz. Even though I do believe that Franz is like the ultimate projection man, because I do believe if we swapped him to another team,
Starting point is 00:35:45 put him in Jalen Johnson's shoes, that Franz Wagner would average 26, 7 and 7. Like I do think he has, he's the next great on-ball creator with these crazy stats that hasn't been given the opportunity. He's a third option now with Bain there.
Starting point is 00:35:57 That's fair. I do think he can be better than Palo, but Palo has proven enough in the since the All-Star game that I'm going to win. once you're going to give him the slight nod. The thing with Paolo is just, you dug yourself in such a deep hole.
Starting point is 00:36:07 You did, you did. And it's like, listen, you're doing, you're doing well, but you heard a lot of people in the way. So you have to go back. But you have to go on your apology tour. You have to show that you are operating in good days for a long time. And it's going to take more than this 15 game stretch. And we're going to have to see this for an extended amount of time.
Starting point is 00:36:28 For end, I would like to see it. And honestly, this is kind of important. Like after, they're probably, they're going to lose in the first time. They might not make the playoffs.
Starting point is 00:36:38 Right. Yeah. We'll see what happens. It's crazy. Let's get a season, like an off season. And then come back into next season. And now like,
Starting point is 00:36:45 in a complete season break and you come into next season, if this is real and it carries over, then that's something where I'm going to look at it much more substantial than an in-season change of like, you know, basically you doing the equivalent of like waking up at 2 a.m. and like, I got to get my money up and just like do this feels like right now. It's good. You got the
Starting point is 00:37:07 motivation. I need you to carry on a little. I don't understand. There's plenty of players that would have hot stretches that we wouldn't necessarily believe. But I think it's, I think what you said makes sense in terms of not wanting to overreact to a late season stretch. That's good practice to not take March basketball too seriously like we've always said, right? But I think it's also, it's easy to just say that and not apply like any context to why somebody's having a good stretch. Now, every late season explosion aren't built the same. A Jalen green late season,
Starting point is 00:37:31 an explosion in March is because he shoots 43% from three every month for some reason. March comes around, he can't miss threes. That shit is fake as hell. If you shoot really well from three for one month and never again, that's no indication of who you are as a player. When we have a guy who we've always said has the physical traits to be an amazing slasher
Starting point is 00:37:46 but sell little jumpers too much and then he's like, oh, bet you're right and start slashing more to really simplify things, that's perfectly translatable. That's not crazy at all. And especially with the slump thing, you said you've dropped a lot of bodies on the way, correct. He was mowing him down with the early season bricks. but that was not a normal like guy fell off he's like 23 years old and was shooting bricks
Starting point is 00:38:06 and like some people peek in high school so it's like yeah but that wasn't palo like he got hurt came back the team was weird we talked about how are they going to reintegrate him he clearly had that in his mind didn't want to do too much had to learn to play with bane plus was coming back from injury there were so many factors that play that while it was horrible that clearly was not going to be palo forever you know like that wasn't something where you say like if you had a james hardin where we say we saw you physically fall off and now you're shooting better. I don't believe it. That's fine. This is not that. So I just think there's enough
Starting point is 00:38:32 here that like he's just once again on the trajectory we wanted. There was a dip on the trend line, but he's back on what we expected. I like this out of you, man. This is a great character progression. Not being the palo defender. You're the palo guy now. Apparently, that's how she goes. People can't
Starting point is 00:38:48 do things in moderation. Everybody's got to take it to the next level. You suck forever. I guess bro. I just need to see more consistency. It's your man. I guess I'm a fucking palo guy. Good Lord. Yeah, LeBron 20. was that in there. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:39:00 He's playing really good now. So that's like, maybe he's gonna earn his way back up a little bit higher because he's really thriving lately as a third option. It's starting to look a little bit more bouncy, which makes sense as a 42-year-old
Starting point is 00:39:09 recovering from Seatica. It makes sense he's taking a lot of time to get back to being, you know, having a whole head of steam every night. You've been trying to boom on, folks, dog. He had two post-thrives of the last end. I'm like, again?
Starting point is 00:39:19 He's sitting on the pacers. So maybe he'll get a little bit higher as he's continuing to, like, thrive in this third option role. But you just, I can't ask him to scale up anymore, like really at all. So the few names above him, I'm like, they can probably do a little bit more fast of him.
Starting point is 00:39:32 Yeah, I agree. This is the worst three-point shooting year that he's had in like a long time. I think he's seen like 31%. But that's coming around two in this time. That's another big part. Yeah, exactly. But seeing him like shift around and all that is very encouraging. I agree with you.
Starting point is 00:39:44 He could, I don't know what his ceiling is necessarily, but at the end of the year, if we were to redo this list, mentally, I think he would be maybe like 19. Oh, he probably gets like, who do I have? 18, maybe. He could get up to, to 16 for me maybe
Starting point is 00:39:57 actually 17 is the end of the elite offensive players so maybe 17 is a real answer okay yeah tough for LeBron James tough scene but man is he killing it in the third option rule everything's one great for a Lakers fan lately all right Mo who is 2316 20 through 16 at 20
Starting point is 00:40:17 I have Darius Garland 19 James Harden 18 18 Austin 17 17 Devon Booker and 16 Tyrese Let me take off these points before you. That's what I'm saying. You said what I tell you. No, no, no, no. Time out.
Starting point is 00:40:31 I said off the get-go. I agree with where you placed him. I didn't say you were wrong with that. It's just how you went out of your way to unnecessarily hate and diminish him. See, everybody wants to be the same person. I'm like, what are you doing right now? Just because I do things differently than you? Does that make me wrong?
Starting point is 00:40:47 No. No. Not necessarily. You just didn't have to do all that. That was the thing. No. You didn't have to do all that. No.
Starting point is 00:40:54 You know? We do things. We do things. Well, now he's telling you to be a respectable hater, which I'm not aligned with. So now I'm not back on your side. If you're gonna hate, hate, come on, man.
Starting point is 00:41:02 Come on, man. That's what I'm saying. But no, it's not consistent, though. It would be a lot of your process. If folks had their eyes closed, they would think you had his ass at 30 or something like that. You had him at 21, which is like the most respectable ranking
Starting point is 00:41:13 you ever had a hearted in your life, probably. I was getting hate on for the most respectable ranking I've ever had in my life. So now he legit, didn't like your tone. No, it's not the tone. It's not the tone. I'm just like you put him at 21 and you're like talking about him like this right now. Do you put him at 19.
Starting point is 00:41:30 Yeah, I agree. But it's like it's different. It's different ways in what we talk about it. That's all it is. I'm like, what are we? Here's the thing. I put him higher.
Starting point is 00:41:38 So we got something here. Well, that's an actual name's to look at it on my list. Okay, Garland 20, Hardin 19, 18, 18 Reeves, 17 book or 16 maxi. I think Maxx is much too low. I think he's a little bit too low. Much too low is interesting. I wonder how you put him now. Yeah, there's a couple guys on here who I'm,
Starting point is 00:41:54 I'm like, I think when it comes to late game decisions, it's just like, this is just another tier, just like stardom. Just like a good player here. Yeah, exactly. It's tough. Maxi, I was flipping him around the most. It's him and another player who I was flipping around the most. And at the end of day, I'm just like, fuck it, bro.
Starting point is 00:42:08 Put him alongside Booker. His ability to play like a million minutes a night is so valuable. Yeah. He just never leaves the court and maintains efficiency at that crazy volume. And not just volume of shots, volume of running around. While still being a good defender, expanding energy there, I think he leads to Leagues Steelers right now. And like, he's a good defender.
Starting point is 00:42:24 He's fast and uses that space to close out a shooter as well. He applies so much effort and energy to all parts of the game and doesn't get gassed. Reeves right now is gassed. This late in the season, he's been playing a lot of minutes. That guy needs to get in the lab too, like Tyler Hero and get his body up because Reeves can't handle the Cuis at this point. And you're seeing him lose his legs, lose his ability to give all that effort. That will never be Tyrese maxi.
Starting point is 00:42:43 His conditioning is crazy. Yeah. Yeah. What separates it from me right now, as he speak, is just like late game offense and how the process is right now. But I assume next year that's going to be a lot better. been much better than it was previous years. But next year is like the real gap between like, okay, like when it's like what, the last minute of the game, I want someone to slow it down, want someone to find the open guy if
Starting point is 00:43:06 necessarily or needed, or this guy's just like signature. You know he's going to knock some shit down at the end of the game. Yeah, I only am a little bit higher. So I respect 16. Anything from really like 13 through 19 are really tight to me. Like this is, we're all looking at straight like some of the best offensive players in the world. The league is crazy.
Starting point is 00:43:24 Donovan. At 20, I have Jalen Johnson, 19. I have Austin Reeves. 18. I have Jamal Murray. 17, Devin Booker. 16, Jalen Brown. Wow.
Starting point is 00:43:34 16, Jalen Brown. Jailen Brown. Shout out to you. 18. Jamal Murray. Your next tier is going to be interesting. Wow. I had Jamal Murray way higher.
Starting point is 00:43:41 So how you feel about Maxi? I have the same, like, the inverted thought process about Jamal Murray. 53 last night. Dude, Jamal Murray is the most efficient players in league right now. 53 last night. It's crazy what he's on. He's fantastic.
Starting point is 00:43:53 But I also think kind of in that same way of like as we move up, at least on my list, it's also a rising list of like, can you be number one guy? Like can you really, really scale up and do all that stuff? And obviously like this season more so than other seasons because Yokic has had injuries. We've seen Jamal Murray, like number one option doing all that stuff. I think at this point I just trust a lot of the other guys a little bit more than Jamal. but he's he's been awesome Jaylen Brown stuff also
Starting point is 00:44:27 great year the guys above them are just yo the league is super deep and there's just so many players above him so you put Jayland Johnson number 20 man that's amazing he's nice listen he saw Jalen Johnson put up like 30 points and like some crazy style I know whatever he was like listen man
Starting point is 00:44:43 we have to have an expansion there's too much talent league right now Jalen Johnson can get 30 oh man no we have expenses James Johnson's getting 35 he's taking that Seattle team for everything it's worth but he he like on that side of the ball he's he's awesome real mind we got to talk about all these guards because you guys are so interesting
Starting point is 00:45:01 to parse it's kind of a Devin booker conversation if you had 20 have Darius Garland 19 Austin Reeves 16 no 18 Devin Booker 17 Jewel and Bede 16 James Harden What don't do with Embed is he higher? I put him a little bit higher Okay yeah he could have been higher I just don't know what to do with the fact that like even in like any even game you don't know how much you can rely on him but like when he's at his best
Starting point is 00:45:25 he's fucking amazing still but even when he's at his best he doesn't he's like doesn't move quite as much anymore so he wasn't drawing quite as much attention can still be an amazing isolation score we'll get his buckets so look at a good rebounder
Starting point is 00:45:36 everything's a little bit slower and a little bit less opening up things for others that like I legitimately do not know what to do with 2026 to Wendbeed dude he's so crazy he came back after a month of not playing basketball and just dropped 35 6 and 7 he will always be a bucket as long as he lives.
Starting point is 00:45:51 Yeah. I feel bad though because it genuinely looks like it hurts for him to play basketball now. Yeah, and then you look up
Starting point is 00:45:56 up he has 30 painful buckets. Exactly. Like, what? 30 painful buckets. Knees on fire, 42 on the board. Out of the mud buckets.
Starting point is 00:46:03 Out of mud for sure. Through the muscle, it doesn't matter. He's going, bone on bone in his knees. He's going to give somebody buckets. Yeah. So I legit don't know to do with that
Starting point is 00:46:11 because some nights he's the fifth best best offensive player in the world. Some nights is 25th. I don't feel confident 16 at all. I mean, 17, you can't put him higher,
Starting point is 00:46:18 go for it. When is Devin Bukker and become a good shooter again? Oh, don't worry about that, man. I'm super worried about it. You're asking too many questions? Do you remember two years ago?
Starting point is 00:46:26 I remember for his last year, Devin Book had a really rough end of the season and I was telling you, like, a lot of sunspans on Twitter, like, damn, my guy's kind of washed. He just hasn't been as efficient since that moment. Two straight years now, the worst efficiency of his prime.
Starting point is 00:46:37 Yeah. That's like his main thing coming out of college, too, was like a shooting ability. Yeah, and he shot 32 or 33% in the last two years. Yeah. It just floats sometimes, isn't quite as aggressive. and maybe that's what the team needs from him. They don't ask him to go out there
Starting point is 00:46:50 and be a helio guy or anything. So the team construction is part of it. The team has crumbled around him and maybe he just needs to be in a better environment. But like, he's really like being carried by reputation right now of what we knew he could do when with the good team for years ago
Starting point is 00:47:03 when I'm wondering if maybe we're getting to the point where just age is coming. I'm just, how old is he? Not that old. He's going to be 30 next year. But he's not that old, right? But he's played a lot of minutes
Starting point is 00:47:13 playing since he was young. And I just don't know if it's a coincidence or not that we're seeing things kind of slow down. Not everybody has the same, you know, body arc. Yeah, not everyone is supposed to last to like 37. Yeah, yeah. Sometimes it happens.
Starting point is 00:47:24 And he's been playing for a long time. And not to say he's like completely fallen off or anything, but some guys peak at 26 physically and things change. Especially guys that aren't one of the best players in the world. The best players in the world, like they, you know, they are the most talented players. They kind of adapt and overcome and have primes deep. Not every mid-level All-Star does it.
Starting point is 00:47:42 It's tough because I want to give, I want to give, like, some of the most benefit of the doubt possible. And it is it is a couple years like you said. And anytime that we have these conversations, especially for guys that I like, I'm like, you know what, next year, if it doesn't happen, then we, then we can finally cut it off. And that's kind of where I'm at with with Booker. And I think, I think also this is probably a fine placement because even whenever book was at like his peak, there were some like that the year 21, 22 finishes. fourth and MVP voting NBA first. Last minute fourth though. Yeah. Fourth, fourth and MVP voting, first team, all NBA. Like that was peak Devin Booker, 27 points a game. Since then, since the
Starting point is 00:48:28 finals run, it's been like, okay, you're still doing what you do, but this entire Devin Booker Eathos just feels slightly worse. And I do think that for people in this tier, the team construction does matter a lot. Yeah. And if we were talking about four years ago, which is crazy, been that long, Devin Booker would be at like 11. And for those guys, team construction doesn't matter as much. He's just at that point where he just needs a little bit more help. Yeah, I agreed. I think he's just, at one point we thought he was at the 10th best player in the world.
Starting point is 00:49:02 And he was. He probably was at one point. Sure. Like, it wasn't crazy. That was four years ago. Yeah, you know, it wasn't crazy or anything. But like when you see no longer having Chris Paul next to him, which is a huge benefit for a shooting guard like him, that's amazing off ball, you say, oh, okay, so part of
Starting point is 00:49:16 that big leap was having the most complimentary point guard I could imagine next to you. Like, they didn't get talked about enough because Chris Paul was in this like era where he was washed and got unwashed and was just kind of like not treated like vintage Chris Paul or anything and probably got overlooked a little bit in terms of his impacted teams. Outside of people saying like, you know, he goes to a team, they make the playoffs. It was under-talked about just how much he helped Evan Booker and just how insanely complimentary of a duo they were. And I think maybe we're at the point now where we see what it looks like without that.
Starting point is 00:49:44 And it's like, okay, you're a little bit more closer to these type of names, to a Garland, to a Reeves, to a late stage James Hardin, than to a DeMitch who you were better than at that point. Or to a Anthony Edwards, who you were better than at that point, or whoever else is up there now. Kate Cunningham. Like, it's just a different tier of players that can assert themselves a little bit more in a game. Shout out Rees, man. Never thought he'd be in these convo. That's very true. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:50:08 I remember, I think towards the beginning of the year or close to the middle of the year, we had our top 30 players rank or top four. 40 player rankings. Yeah. And I think I remember putting Reeves just slightly above higher than Devin Booker. Since then, of course, things changed. Rees got hurt, he cooled down and all that. And Devin Bookers pretty much maintained his status or whatever, which Nitson, maybe just like a hint higher.
Starting point is 00:50:31 But overall, like, Rees' Ascension is insane. And I feel like every single year, you know, we're always looking for that next guy to take a leap. And I think Austin Reeves genuinely did take that leap. It's just tough shit to see because Luke is on that team. And no matter what type of leap. you like Austin Reeves take, it's always going to be overshadowed no matter what.
Starting point is 00:50:48 I do still kind of think that if Reeves was in Booker's shoes that he performed just as good or better. But because everything you said, Booker's just so proven and safe that I gave him that nod. I don't feel confident in that at all. Yeah. Like going to next year, like let's say if Austin Reeves leaves a free agency, fucking nightmare. Some weird shit. Nightmare. But let's say he leaves
Starting point is 00:51:04 and goes to the bucks or whatever after the trade Giannis, whatever dream scenario you have of him being his own guy and his own team. I think we would think about him better than Devin Booker. Oh yeah. He's averaging like a smooth like I think he average like 26 and 7 game like he's that type of score now he's that he's just like weirdly barrels his way
Starting point is 00:51:23 into the rim every single time he's gonna get those weird free throw calls he's gonna go ahead and find whatever random big that he might end up playing with in the future he's gonna have great great chemistry with those guys he's just he's special he's really good an amazing passer probably better past than Booker who's also a good passer yeah but that being said it doesn't matter because Austin Reeves will always be with Luca Donchis until he retires he's never leaving the Lakers
Starting point is 00:51:44 So we'll never know what he can do on his own. Yeah. Garland. We agree? Yeah. Yeah, he's firmly back. His numbers are crazy since he's been with the clip. Yeah, it's like five games.
Starting point is 00:51:57 He's been crazy. Just the level of shooting he brings on and offball with playmaking, being an incredible interior passer off the dribble three point shooter and off ball three point shooter is just an insanely valuable archetypal player to be. In fact the game in all those ways to where you don't even have to touch the ball. You can let Kauai cook and you're still making a little. everybody better in immensely valuable player even if he's never a like one a or anything in the 11 games that he's played with the clippers shooting 50% from the field 50% from the which is just
Starting point is 00:52:23 insane it's unsustainable but when it comes to like going back to what you said earlier like the prime regular all-star daress who aren't that we've kind of missed over the last few years since he's been with donovan mitchell he's 100% fully back and he's that normal guy like i'm happy with him and i think over the next few years he'll probably like maintain around this level if he stays healthy heavy on that yeah really really really He's versus Garland. I mean, an interesting combo. I feel like I maybe think that Garland's better at his peak, offensively.
Starting point is 00:52:51 But I don't know about that. Because Reeves is a better score. Garland's a better passer. They're both good at the other thing. I have no clue. Like, who would you rather have for the next five years offensively? Offensive. Maybe Reeves, because I think...
Starting point is 00:53:02 No injury? No injury. Yeah. Everyone at their best. Garland. It's tough. Garland gives... Two split answers.
Starting point is 00:53:10 Yeah, I think I'd take Garland, no injury. That's tough. Just offensively. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. That's tough. I don't think he can carry the scoring burden that Rees is capable of.
Starting point is 00:53:22 I think Reeves can legitimately average 27. But Garland's a much better passer. And probably a better off ball player, even though Reeves isn't bad offball. Oh, most definitely, yeah. He's an elite off ball player, actually. You're right. He's like one of the best in the league. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:53:35 I do like this tour out of everyone. So I'm giving out three points. All right. There you go. Nice. All right. All right. Oh, I got multiple points.
Starting point is 00:53:44 Damn, we're just throwing them out. So you give a point. You get a point. Let's go. Let's go. He's fucking point, point, point, point. Let's go. He just wanted to big the numbers up so it didn't look like he ended this with no numbers.
Starting point is 00:53:54 Yeah. I'm crying. Yeah. He said, yeah, he had to catch up. We in the top 15 now. He said, damn, why does Isaac have zero points? Wow, bro. All right.
Starting point is 00:54:02 All right. That's what are you doing. He's like pity for him. This are his own points. We should take a stand against us, honestly. It's inflation. He's not stymies. For himself.
Starting point is 00:54:12 15 through 11. At 15, I have Jamal Murray, 14 Tyrese maxi, 13 Jalen Brown, 12 Kevin Durant, 11 Victor Wimbonyama, who I spent so long trying to decide how high I could bring him. I could have put him as high as I think like seven or eight if I wanted to really glaze. I ended up going 11. But I wanted to glaze so bad. Okay. I think Wemby's in this tier for me as well.
Starting point is 00:54:35 I have Wembe just like a smidge higher, but I understand it. It was so interesting for me to like figure out. where to place Brown because he has like if you want to say he's like top 10 offensively the season no one's going to look at you crazy yes I will I'm going to look at him crazy I'll look at you ridiculous if you tell me he's a better offensive player than Victor
Starting point is 00:54:54 Wominiamma minus points I don't know just strictly off its I think I'm doing a lot putting him next to Kevin around I think I'm giving him plenty of plenty of praise dude his rim scoring you get another four not dude Jalen Brown's drum scoring is crazy it's crazy this year
Starting point is 00:55:11 and I think that's a separator for me I don't know if I put him slightly above Kevin to Rand. Yes, I did barely. But I think that was like the eventual separator for me. Seeing of course, Katie's KD, bro, like he can go ahead and like shoot 45, 50% from the mid range literally until he's 80 years old. He's so crazy. But seeing Jalen Brown's ascension and also on top of that too, how he's like the rim scoring is just like, it's wildly impressive. That's a separate. He's even crazy. He's that he's taking 10% less shots of the room they did last year. He's taking a lot more mid-range shots from last year. It's crazy compared to KD. That's, that's, that's a time. Okay. I mean, the volume isn't that crazy compared
Starting point is 00:55:42 to KD. He's like, he's kind of doing what the reality of being a wing score like that is. If they take away the rim, you should a lot of mid-range jumpers. And you shouldn't really well. So that's why he's this high. But I think he's going through the same exact reality that KD does that you just can't get to the rim quite as often when you get covered in that type of way as a wing as a wing. But he's very efficient at the rim, not take it away from him. That's why he's this high because he's really, really good offball, very good driver, potentially the best offball scoring wing in the NBA. The fact that you can have this guy that, let's say your point guard is dribbling, say Tatum is dribbling. And you can swing into this.
Starting point is 00:56:12 guy to attack a, like we just saw last night in the game, Isaiah Joe, Jared McCain, a guy that has zero chance of defending a Jalen Brown close out with how strong he is. That is such a cheat code when you have the spacing the Celtics do that him is an awful player is why I have him this eye. Take away another point for me. I don't want him. I'm crying. These are dirty points.
Starting point is 00:56:35 You sacrifice some points. Yeah, he's really good. He's not the, I think he's a. I think his ability to serve as a one option is clearly done it this year and it's impressive. A big part of that to me is the offense that Joe Mazula has built that doesn't really need him to be a great playmaker. They really, really thrive on the scoring. He does in isolation with the complimentary off-ball movement they do to create shots for others. The amazing split actions they draw, all the dribble handoffs, everything that they do to facilitate the playmaking when they don't have Tatum there to do it himself.
Starting point is 00:57:05 Great. And I think that really enables Brown to be a like focus on scoring. You still have the usage to get your five assists and whatever. but I've never thought he's a like impressive playmaker like even I think even Katie's his player maker still yeah that's damn near that's damner talk for me yeah so that that's why he can't be like top 10 to me
Starting point is 00:57:20 I don't think he impacts others quite as much but his ability to play off of others is incredible I agree it's like on top of that too something I don't remember if you you mentioned it but the cutting too is Jurassic as well and that's just something like that's just of course Katie Katie is like the easiest offense ever but when it comes to just like placement
Starting point is 00:57:35 and like around all different types of formats of teams with Brown is just so crazy. Like he can play with literally anybody and like not have a hard way to figure things out. And of course, Katie can do the exact same thing. He's like literally the perfect player for that. But for this specific year and considering like, you know,
Starting point is 00:57:53 like the, I think when it comes to the pin, you're underselling how drastic of a difference it is. Like Katie, he really don't begin to the rim compared to someone like Dylan Brown. Like Dylan Brown shooting damn near 70% at the rim this year, you know, on like five attempts per game compared to Katie who's taking like maybe two shots a game in the restricted area.
Starting point is 00:58:11 So it's like a massive difference, actually. So I think that at the end of the day is the old is the slight separator for me. But I understand it. Jamlin Brown just gave me so much out for no reason. Yeah, I think the on ball stuff is that what Kay Brown doesn't do with the room a whole lot. Off ball is what we're talking about. He gets the rim a lot, runs in position, cuts like you said. And that is very valuable.
Starting point is 00:58:28 I agree. But in terms of the like isolation creation, that's where Katie doesn't do the offball stuff as much as him. Clearly. And that is a value point for Janlon Brown. That makes up for Kevin Grant shooting. That's why they're right next. to each other to me. But I don't think on ball,
Starting point is 00:58:41 Jaylon Brown is like a crazy run pressure guy. And even if he was, it's not turning into like advanced playmaking or anything, which is what you want for that room pressure. That's the difference. So him just like taking shots to the rim alone without being a great playmaker and without those being on ball
Starting point is 00:58:53 aren't enough for me to put him above him with that itself. But I do agree they're right next to each other. They're right next to each other. Yeah, I do agree. It's fine to have him right by each other. Yeah. Fair.
Starting point is 00:59:02 So Monmarie 15. I would assume you had to have had him a little bit higher. Really? Silver Maxie? maybe just over Maxi. I realized I think I was like a little bit glazing. Not even a little bit. Kind of a lot glazing Jamal Marieb.
Starting point is 00:59:15 Bro, he's so fucking good. The shot making season that he's having this year is ridiculous. It's like it's something special that we haven't seen from too many players of his caliber and his shot diet. It's crazy, man. It's crazy as efficiency all around the floor. You're really good. Him versus Maxie is so tough to me. I think it's fair to him above Maxie.
Starting point is 00:59:35 In fact, maybe I do believe that. I went back and forth. And I can be sold on him over Jalen Brown if you want to hate a little bit on J.B. You know, you don't got to tell me twice. You're at zero. I didn't do it, but. That was unworthy.
Starting point is 00:59:51 That was great. He didn't do it, though. I didn't do it. I don't know. I'm just throwing out options in the multiverse that I didn't do. Petition for you. You need your point back from it. He's the one that was glazing, not me.
Starting point is 01:00:01 I didn't do it. Okay. At 15, I have Embeded 14, Durant. 13, Jeline Brown. 12, I have Cade and 11 I have Jim Brunson. Cade and Brunson outside the top 10 is crazy to me. I can't wait to see who you have up there.
Starting point is 01:00:15 I kind of spoiled it. I said I was kind of glazing Jamal Murray this year. Oh, good Lord. Dude, his efficiency is not even close compared to these two right now. Obviously, like, we've had Cade discussions before. And when it comes to Brunton as well, again, I've been saying it over the last few, over the last few episodes.
Starting point is 01:00:29 No one's really talking about how he's like literally slowing down. He's having not the worst efficiency career. His efficiency is perfectly fine. It's actually good. very great for someone with the kind of shots that he takes. But he's slowing down. It's like slightly noticeable. But even though he's slowing down, he's still like, he's still ridiculous.
Starting point is 01:00:45 I think he's shooting like 50% from the mid-range line or whatever from the range area. The ways that he gets is that he gets his buckets and seeing how like he's, the playmaking isn't the best, but it's better. It's not what it was a couple of years ago. He's still top of him for me. Yeah. He should be 1% worse than 3% worse at the rim. Yeah. A little bit.
Starting point is 01:01:03 And the volume of the rim is down 5%. So it's me a little, it's meaningful. You notice it's something to notice. But yeah, Jalen Brunson gets better for the doubt until he has a playoff series that's not fucking outlandish. Now that's fair. Like he's just, he's truly like reverse-hearted. Yeah, literally. I'm going to keep him tops in until he shows me he's not got amongst men come playoff time.
Starting point is 01:01:23 For the regular season, I probably would agree with you like he'd be in this tier. But every single time we touch the playoff court, he gives 40 to everybody and it's crazy and it defies logic and everything we expected from him. And I'm just going to continue to glaze him until he does otherwise. Listen, all what you're saying makes sense. I'm not going off of sense or logic. You're dumb if you think so. It's Nix tax, it's clear as day. I always have to think about Bruns and whoever and everybody who reps that.
Starting point is 01:01:47 Have to. Understandable. I am curious about Isaac's Cade placement after the conversation we had the other day. Well, that was off camera. Me thinking Kate isn't as good as Luca. Isn't exactly Kate hate. Nah, he was hating hard. Nah, the way you were talking about him, you were saying like.
Starting point is 01:02:04 That's because Donovan was on. It was fucking giving it to him. It was crazy. Donovan was giving it to Kate. All I said was that. Yeah, wait, what do you say? Kate had his best day. Touched Luca had his worst.
Starting point is 01:02:15 Yeah. The worst stretch of Lucas' career is better than Kate has ever been in his life. Nah, that's crazy. You see what I'm saying? There will be no point in their crimes where Luca could be in a shooting sum for a month.
Starting point is 01:02:27 There will be no point in either individual players' primes that Luca will ever be worse than Kate Cunningham is this year. Is this not crazy? No, Oh, and Luca Donchish. 10 points for that. It's Luca Dodgers.
Starting point is 01:02:37 Are you fucking kidding me? This is hate. And that's why I'm curious to see the placement because Cade, at this point better be at 10. Luca better be at two. But we'll see. Guess who's not far off. Beesles. Give a point.
Starting point is 01:02:51 Yeah, I think Kate is extremely good, but Luca is in a different stratosphere. It's one of the best offensive players to ever fucking live. And to suggest Kate Cunningham is even comparable as an offensive player or player in general to Luca is completely overreacting to a bad month of shooting from Luca. It's completely doing too much and applauding how much you think Kid Cunningham is tough. That's pure emotion. It's completely illogical in every fucking way.
Starting point is 01:03:14 However. Have you considered? I truly I truly do think that in this conversation like you pass over it but you don't give it enough creditors. bro, he just has too much motion.
Starting point is 01:03:38 Like, I really just don't think. What? I think, I think, I think that you're just understanding, like, the stuff that Kate is doing this year. What does that mean? He's sexy. He has too much motion. The stuff that Kate is doing.
Starting point is 01:03:51 He fits too hard. You don't talk about basketball. The stuff Kate is doing this year is legitimately. And when we were having this conversation, it was in the context of, like, MVP voting. So it's not like, and it's not like a year to year. type of ranking right where that's always different it was specifically this year i think that kd does just have an argument to be third on the ballot because of crying man because of where the pistons are because of the things that that they've done as a team and because of where they've been
Starting point is 01:04:20 able to go and i think obviously largely is because of the offense that kate has has played this year obviously along with the defense but that was that was the overall point i'm gonna pivot i'm gonna join club 77 the fanatical european fans on twitter that make luka like like they do this Q and on shit to praise Luca. I'm going to join them because of how ridiculous people are with Lucaslander this year. You're going to make me join the craziest motherfuckers on the internet. Sorry, man. I will say, also caveat on this list.
Starting point is 01:04:45 Cade is over here at 12 as an offensive player. He's the worst score here, but the best passer here in playmaker overall, which is why he knows that at 12. Yeah, same logic. I have Brunson right above Cade, just a few spots higher. I'm with you. The playmaking of Cade is outrageous. He's one of the best playmakers in the league. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:05:00 But he'll seemingly never be like an efficient high-level score. who'll always be the like Jason Kidd of this era where he's an incredible player amazing playmaker good defender good score for being a lead option but never touching my like top tier scoring guards of league or anything yeah yeah I agree I agree which is not a not a bad fate to have as an NBA player good being proto modern Jason kid is pretty damn good it's good man Luca is like his Magic Johnson what's Jason kids like career high points well different era different era I think today Jason Kitt would average 24 or whatever let me see okay
Starting point is 01:05:33 that's crazy. Jason could average like 18 or 19 at his best. You don't think you get average 24 with space in today? Jason
Starting point is 01:05:38 kid's career high is 43. What's the only like point for game? Oh, for a season.
Starting point is 01:05:44 Yeah. 24. What? What? What? What? What? I thought we
Starting point is 01:05:55 get about one single a game. I'm like, I mean, Jason could probably go off one time. That's funny.
Starting point is 01:06:00 19 or 18. 17. is as high. 18. That's all 23 today, maybe a little bit lower. I don't know. It's hard to say with spacing
Starting point is 01:06:06 and the way people play today. He'd also be encouraged to shoot more from younger age. So everybody would average more with this type of guard today. I don't know what the line is. That season he shot 34% from from three,
Starting point is 01:06:15 probably what he would be normally. By what Kate's doing this year. And so it's like, it is. Yeah, he would, 19 and 9. So it's, it's, it's whatever. And that's when they were true point guards. They weren't running high pick and roll
Starting point is 01:06:28 100 times a game, slashing trying to be a score to set up the playmaking. Yeah. I think, yeah, Cade's averaging 24 and a half. I think Jason I could certainly do that.
Starting point is 01:06:34 Yeah. I don't think Cade's peak yet, but, okay. Oh, I'm sure he hasn't. No, God, no, he hasn't. Do I think his peak will touch Luca Donchitz? No, but I do think he'll hit in the level. Can he get, like, can he peak higher than Anthony Edwards, maybe? But Luke is a different tier to get into.
Starting point is 01:06:48 And also, Ann hasn't peaked yet, so that's the other thing. Yeah, that was a lot. You just said right there. What I'm talking about current day, Ann. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Ant might peek at my fucking Kobe Bryant. I don't know. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:06:57 But today's aunt, I think Kate can be better than that. All right. All right. At 15 we have Embed 14 we have wembe 13 we have bronze 12 we have KD and 11 we have maxi Yo you're doing a glazer for me man now I would like to say I would like to say I would like to say man let's say both hands and feet this too disgusting he's giving them all limbs oh my god using his ear fuck crazy stuff fuck 13 wow he's pulling in opposition.
Starting point is 01:07:32 Bind Wemby? Fuck, man. No, this is nuts. This is a lot. He's not even doing tricks on it. He's doing fucking four-dimensional math on it. He's breaking the loss of physics on it. Say,
Starting point is 01:07:46 word the fuck, type shit. What the fuck, 13? Oh my God. He's discovering interdimensional travel on it. He got that you done? Wow, man. This whole thing works because
Starting point is 01:08:10 of discourse and the sharing of thoughts. In the moment, in the moment we demonize somebody for bringing their thoughts to the forum, this whole thing is cooked. He defended democracy. So we're here to work or not, he's not to defend democracy. Mind you, I have not said one thing.
Starting point is 01:08:29 Yes. I haven't said one thing. They've done more in their theatrics in the last minute and a half than just, just to say, sit down and listen what the opposite is to say. I ain't go lie. And it might not even be opposition. All I was going to
Starting point is 01:08:46 say was 12 through 15 in this specific list, complete suspension. And by suspension, I mean, it's like an elevator. I can cut the I can cut the string. That thing could drop all the way down. I'm putting you here. I'm putting you here right now just because
Starting point is 01:09:02 you are Kevin Durant, you are you are LeBron. And I think for for LeBron, even though that he has moved into this like third option role, listen, there's nobody better in the history of the league to be a third option role. And that's what we're talking about right now. Is that not true? I love that shit.
Starting point is 01:09:18 I love that shit, man. 2026 LeBron and took the greatest third option of all time. So I love that shit, man. And you're saying, is the name LeBron James the best third option? Yeah, but that is irrelevant. This is not the best third option. Nobody is no, to be, to be a number three options specifically to to Luca and and, and Austin Reeves.
Starting point is 01:09:37 like LeBron James is doing all the things that anybody has ever said of any third option which is, yo, can you go be Super Soldier Draymond Green except he's the smartest player to ever play the game? His three-point shot is coming back around. Yo, he knows his angles, man. He's catching lobs right now.
Starting point is 01:09:56 Man. All I'm saying is in a playoff series, in a playoff series, it would behoove you to have LeBron on the floor in some capacity. And I think that that still means something. and I think that that still means a lot to have him on the floor. Now, a lot of this is carried by the basketball IQ by the experience.
Starting point is 01:10:15 Obviously, he's not LeBron James, the MVP candidate year in and year out. Can I see LeBron drop into 17 if he has to score 25 and then the next game he can't score two? Yes, I get that. That's what I said. It's a suspension. I can cut you off. The same thing with KD. KD, if I throw a double at you, are you going to be good?
Starting point is 01:10:37 I don't know, but you're Kevin Durant. You've done it before and be the same thing. It's really wild that your knees. You think Wembe is in the suspension tier though? Yeah, why is Wembe there? Man, say Wart to folk. LeBron. Say Wart to Foke.
Starting point is 01:10:53 La Bronte de Wobie. Say you're a fuck. You're an idiot. You're a dude. No, what do you can't? You're a devil. You're a pure dummy. Oh my God.
Starting point is 01:11:15 Pure dummy. I think so. Say it. Wemby. No. I'm not going to say it. Why the deduction, man. He ain't standing in all business.
Starting point is 01:11:26 No, hold on. He's not putting on. But with Wemby, with Wemby also like, Wembe can suspend in the other direction. He can go up. Just because I haven't seen Wemby, I haven't seen Wemby in a playoff series. And there are,
Starting point is 01:11:39 there are things, especially in the half court where all the other guys and and like LeBron can still do this to an extent, KD, obviously, if we get into the half court and we start getting into into situations, the consistency of your, of your go-to scoring of being able to just like, hey, go get a bucket here, that's still not 100% with Wembe. Sure. And I want to see that a little bit more polished in a way that even to this day, there's five minutes left you say, Bronco, I, like, we need something. LeBron can still, he can still do that
Starting point is 01:12:13 in a, in a certain capacity and in the same realm as Wemby. As somebody who's had to watch every second of LeBron's career this year, I'm going to gently put my hand on your shoulder and say those days are done. I'm not, I'm not saying, I'm not saying every, I'm not saying every single possession. I'm not saying for five minutes straight, like the, the first play that we're going to run is, it's clear out Bronon there. But Wemby still has a lot to show for that, for the half court scoring where everybody else on this list and everybody that's higher than him I really do value that and he just hasn't shown that.
Starting point is 01:12:45 That's fair. Wemby's just like the best offball player in the league now. That's fair. The role gravity of Wemby and the attention he draws. He makes his offense. The on-off swings are as good as any of the top creators because the amount of stuff he opens up when he runs up pick and roll and his bodies fly to him
Starting point is 01:12:58 and the spacing provides a three-point shooter. He makes everybody's life a million times better. It's like the Curry conversation where we talk about even when he's not scoring. Offball, he draws so much attention. He makes everybody better. when he's entering those conversations as a lot threat, a role threat, a spacer,
Starting point is 01:13:11 all of that with still being a good on ball score, not amazing yet, which you're right about for sure, that he aggregates enough value that to me, LeBron's not a conversation at all. But, Katie's a conversation. I have them run next to each other, so I understand that part. LeBron, I just can't do it anymore.
Starting point is 01:13:25 Yeah, I think this tier is just like, when it comes to having players of this tier, these are guys who you expect to really, like, really dictate how the last few minutes of the game is going to go and do like super, superstar like things and right now that's just like not lebron's bag or job anymore and you don't want it to be clearly at all based off of where he's at athletically and how much energy it takes for him
Starting point is 01:13:48 to try to get past by his but he won't do it he will try though the scale up thing is really hard now like the way he's slow down on ball him trying to blow by people was so tough that he just like does he slow dribbles back and forth because he can't turn the corner on guys yeah it's tough to see when he has to try to blow by a guy yeah but what he can do though he'll cut like very precisely well he will go ahead and get you like an offensive rebound clutch met last minute just a couple of games ago we saw him dive deep on dive on the floor which you never seen him do before in his life that right there is like of course like star quality super serum draymond type stuff but that's not superstar stuff right there though yes aaron
Starting point is 01:14:20 it's like are you better than erin gordon now offensively probably are you better than whenby that's a different conversation but that's what i'm saying a lot of it obviously is driven by by the IQ by the by the experience so i do think that the brulman is time to ikew is way into a dunk Listen, man. He going to have to. He's going to have to. But he can... You're going to get a post-fade.
Starting point is 01:14:41 You're going to like it? All the things that everybody else does. And, like, honestly, I want to drop Durant even below LeBron. Dude, did you see that game last night, bro? That's crazy. If we want to slam the KD, I will... That's crazy. I will not stand in your way.
Starting point is 01:14:56 There's been, there's been so many moments this year where the Rockets have completely fallen apart, downstretches, of games. And obviously, like, you can't just be like, Katie, go score 10 times in a row and save the team. I understand, like, that can't necessarily happen. But for this Rocket's team, like, Katie, he does have to have to be better. Some of, like, he's had very high moments, but some of the times whenever it's been bad, you've seen that age really start to get there.
Starting point is 01:15:29 You've seen, as we've talked about for honestly, like three years now, you've seen the lack of room pressure. Some of the middies, he's getting to his spot. It looks like KD, the shots just not going in sometimes. The playmaking, I don't think is always amazing, doing stuff off the dribble. We've seen what happened with the Lakers did, forcing KD to be like the main playmaker on that team, which also is a big indictment of the Rockets in their current roster situation. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:15:54 But still, also, all these other guys can handle the ball and they really, really took you out the game. There's just been a lot of moments with KD this year. with. I don't know right now if bringing in KD and like trading all of these pieces for them, which the Rockets still would have done. I'm saying for another team. Oh yeah, yeah. Well, no, no. There's probably going to be another team. I don't know if that's worth it.
Starting point is 01:16:17 You mentioned the part that's the entire thing to me is that it's an indictment on the Rockets infrastructure. They have no point guards. Kevin Durett is not a point guard. He never was. He damn sure shouldn't be at 37 years old when he's as slow he's ever been. It is the worst. It's literally I think the worst team environment I could imagine for Kevin Durant being asked to go be the pick and roll guy to go handle these double teams
Starting point is 01:16:35 and be the guy set the table for everybody. That is truly worst case scenario. He needs to be a play finisher. He needs to be a wing score. If he was in Jalen Brown shoes and could play next to all those guards and that amazing system that gets people going downhill all the time with that spacing, he would be having a much better year and we'd be talking about Katie having goat level longevity
Starting point is 01:16:51 because he'd be averaging 29 on incredible efficiency. But no, he stuck playing next to four non-shooters and a bunch of guys that just want to fucking butt heads with him. It is the by far, maybe in the league. He might be putting up better numbers for the Sacramento Kings than the Houston Rockets. And I don't even know if that's a joke.
Starting point is 01:17:08 That's what's crazy. Is the Rockets that bad? Maybe not the Kings. But like, there's a few small amount of teams that have an infrastructure so poorly set up for Katie. He'd get quadruple team. Don't mean. Devin Carter got him. Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:17:25 Devin Carter mentioned. But he just, he needs to play with point guards. so badly that like yeah he's really bad at that he shouldn't be doing that so like i don't even like want to ding him for that it would be like if webby started running pick and rolls and get bliss like why did webby suck so bad at picking rolls why aren't the point guards doing it i feel similarly with kevin durant yeah i agree i agree team construction is so ass i said this double gets spooky i love this because what's going to happen is the sending doubles at katie it's going to end up being like rudigobank can't can't play defense all it's going to be fantastic this this is the new jaylon
Starting point is 01:17:58 Brown don't got a left hand, bro. Yeah. And I'm so here for it. And Noah's going to happen in the playoffs, too. He's going to get doubled. Of course he is. Like, he always does. And nobody's going to do anything about it.
Starting point is 01:18:06 So they're going to keep doing it. That's sick. I meant Thompson saved me. Top 10. Donovan, who you got from 10 through 6? At 10, I have Kade. Nine, I have Jalen Brunson. Eight, D. Mitch.
Starting point is 01:18:18 Seven, Steph Curry. Six, Anthony Edwards. Okay. Perspectable. Okay. Curry's hard at rank now. Got hurt, obviously. I think Curry's still, like.
Starting point is 01:18:28 maybe top five. Yeah. The only reason I didn't put him top five was because of the injury. Yeah. That's very fair. But when it comes to like curry and like what he is when he's healthy this season when he was able to show it,
Starting point is 01:18:42 he's been having out of the last like three years, this has been like the best year. And like of course like when it comes to how we change basketball yada yada yada. Like all that shit don't need to be said. Like we know exactly who he is. But if you just want to talk about this single year compared to everyone else and bro,
Starting point is 01:18:56 he's not playing again this year. Every single night I want to watch Warriors basketball I want to see Steph Curry play And I see he's not playing I'm just like a pods lead point guard I'm not watching at all They're there they're tough watch Yeah yeah
Starting point is 01:19:08 That's what annoys me is like This is like Kobe's later years But healthy or healthier And it's just being wasted And worse because at least At least when Kobe came back You still had like You were starting to get some of like the baby Laker picks
Starting point is 01:19:22 Yeah You have none of that here Damn It should have been it should have been Kaminga It should have been B-Pods. Moses Moody just got injured too. That was tough.
Starting point is 01:19:32 Yeah, that was awful. And so now all of these young pieces that you had, you don't even have the opportunity to draft young players because you traded these first-off picks for Jimmy Butler. He tore his ACL. It's just a terrible situation. So it's tough. But I do think that in a competent team construction,
Starting point is 01:19:50 Steph is still top five and you can still lead very, very good offense. Okay. Okay, let's move all of ours because we're all going to have similar names, I think. 10 have Donovan Mitchell 9 Kunningham 8 Jalen Brunson 7 Anthony Edwards 6 Kauai Leonard
Starting point is 01:20:04 Okay Okay I like this I like this tier Wow man Kauai 6 he couldn't be top 5 A lot good players Don't know Put him above Curry
Starting point is 01:20:14 Go for it I guess When it comes to efficiency and shit Right it's tough Tough though Stefan Curry is right above him That's a tough conversation But also Kauai this year I mean I'm not arguing against you
Starting point is 01:20:23 But it's like man No you're telling me I'm an idiot You're arguing against me You're a nematode You're a nitwit You're an imbecile At number 10 I have Jamal Murray
Starting point is 01:20:34 I told you I was overly glazing this year But historic shooting year But numbers only parallel To literally Steph Curry For this singular season I'm doing it Will he do it again? No
Starting point is 01:20:43 You're lucky he discovered nuclear fission on it Because otherwise you'd be the biggest blazer Listen man I was gonna say something crazy But for Jamal Murray this singular year I'll remember for the rest of my fucking life bro. I've never seen a shooting season like this from someone that's like
Starting point is 01:20:57 not Steph Curry, bro. It's ridiculous. And it surely won't be forgotten, bro. He's having 25 and 7 this year had multiple 50 point games. Like he's he's otherworldly for the singular year and he deserves it. Won't be for a guy. Otherworldly. Yes. Man, some Jupiter. Now, 9, Wembe,
Starting point is 01:21:13 8, Donovan Mitchell, 7, Anthony Edwards and 6. I just had to throw you on us in there. I didn't comment the thing among all these. You guys are digging people for like loss season to injuries more than I am. I'm like, Janice and Curry are still Janice and Curry. So I put them both in the top five. I understand it if you're doing more indexing for this season. But I'm like, I know who they are. Now, for Janus, I didn't necessarily do that. I just think that offensively people are just like,
Starting point is 01:21:35 Yonis is actually the same exact thing for Yonis, but I think other guys have been just genuinely better offensively. And like, when it comes to this level of like top five, in order to be top five, you damn to have to be like, no one can take you on this team, no matter what type of, no number of what type of situation or team construction you're in. Like you're going to walk into trot into a top five offensive situation. Yeah. You're a child. Wait, what happened?
Starting point is 01:22:02 You'll see him in the replay. Just do the child, bro. Actually, let me, I need to switch because I'm thinking about this now. What do you think? I need to switch Brunson and DeMitch. No, why? Brunson is better. Yeah, he's just better.
Starting point is 01:22:16 Again, he goes to the playoffs and he turns into Kobe every time. That's fair. That's fair. Yeah. Yeah. My bad cap. I shouldn't have did that. That's on for the five minutes just thinking about that.
Starting point is 01:22:30 Fucked up in the club. By the disrespecting Jalen Brunson. So boing, boy. I shouldn't have did that. Yeah, that's going to be a good debate. I mean, this season, regular season production-wise, D-Mitch has better numbers. I think playoffs, we just know that Brunson has earned the right
Starting point is 01:22:45 to be considered better than him, I think. But I can respect putting D-Mitch above him. It's not crazy. That's fair. So we all have Anthony Edwards in this tier. It's just not quite ready. for top five. The guys in top five are just crazy. Yeah. But it's no. He's on the way, obviously.
Starting point is 01:22:57 Is it the playmaking? It's just the guys above him are superheroes. I don't even really have anything to criticize Anthony Edwards for it. His fans are calling him fat. Oh, yeah. They said he was on Popeyes or something like that. He said he had Popeye's relapse. Poppies relapse. Apparently he's been out of shape of the course of the season and this given his best game. I didn't notice the fatness, but apparently this fans do
Starting point is 01:23:15 and I trust them. The answer is hard because, especially coming off of of last year, like him and his team spent the whole offseason, calling Shay fraudulent saying this is a battle, this is one and two. Colin Luke of Fat. They called everybody.
Starting point is 01:23:35 They called out everybody at the top and said, we're better, you guys are fraud, this and that, this and that. And this year, Shea has leveled up to be this, like, all-time player and has followed up one of the best guard seasons that we've seen with another all-time guard season. Lucas having an amazing season. Wemby has solidified himself as, you know, the best defensive player, maybe he ever. And then, you know, adding to his, to his resume, people were talking about, oh, by the time
Starting point is 01:24:06 the playoffs end is Wembe going to be, you know, the best player in the world. It has to right now. Like, this, it feels very like Michael Irvingy. Like, you have to step up right now and don't let another man come into your house, take your meal. because all of these other guys are superheroes and you do have to ascend into that, especially when you spent nine months saying that they're not superheroes and that you're the guy.
Starting point is 01:24:30 And we heard a little bit about like, oh, I'm going to add the post game. I'm going to do this. I'm going to do that. You saw the game a couple weeks ago when it was OKC versus Minnesota. She's like, yeah, I'm just going to walk into whatever I want. I'm just going to score whenever I want.
Starting point is 01:24:43 It's going to be easy. And it hasn't unlocked that next level of just like nuclear bomb. I'm scoring 35 on absolutely anybody, any defense in the world. Yeah. It's so sad because we all sit here and agree with you. We'll also say we would all agree with this too. He's been better.
Starting point is 01:25:00 This is like the best version of Anthony Edwards that we've seen ever. Yeah, I don't even want to criticize. I'm like, I mean, shout out the commercial discourse. Yeah. But it's really, the only reason he's not five is because Kauai turned back the clock and became one of the best players in the world again. Otherwise, he'd be clear cut six. And then none that the guys in top five have fallen off yet.
Starting point is 01:25:16 And they're just like some of the best offensive players ever. So I have nothing bad to say, but I think he had words this season. Yeah, just tough shit, man. Top five. Top five, top five, top five. Okay, so at five, I have Hawaii Leonard, four, I have Luca, three, Shea, number two,
Starting point is 01:25:32 Curry, one, Yolkes. So one and two for me are just like, you're submitted them in NBA history, and I think you're like a top three offensive player of all time. Here's the thing. Top four, top five, whatever it is. You have now rent Steph Curry
Starting point is 01:25:43 above Luca Donchitz in about three years are appointed on rankings. No, no, no, no. And is damn sure not because of Lucas' defense. No, definitely not. Right now, I came to a realization moment. That's cool. Last night, I realized this is the last year where I think Curry's ever going to
Starting point is 01:25:56 like do anything of like he's going to have like much eyes or respect, not respect, but attention on him. And I think I don't know if he'll be at this level anymore. I think Yolkich and Curry obviously doesn't need not much easy to be said, but they can walk with walking with anyone and they'll make offense easy, the different type of offense too, you know? And that's something that's like it's different tiers, different legacy wise. You guys literally changed basketball.
Starting point is 01:26:20 I once again said, and Steph Curry didn't necessarily get worse this year at all. He just been hurt and his team is ass. I once again say for three straight years, you rank Shay and Luca above Curry on our point guard list. Why the fuck would Curry be above them now? This is just his version of Donovan's LeBron picture. It makes no sense.
Starting point is 01:26:36 No sense. Like, Shay, okay, She's a better defender. Maybe you think Curry's a better offensive player, I guess. Luca sucks at defense. He's a worst defender than Curry, and you think Luca's a better player overall. So why would he not be the better offensive player?
Starting point is 01:26:49 He does suck on defense right. Correct. Offensive list. He's trash. Now, you are right. But for all those things said, they're just cemented in NBA history in terms of, in terms of like we've never seen anything like you. That's true. Never see anything like you.
Starting point is 01:27:06 And you are offense on your own matter who the fuck you have carrying on your team. And I can't necessarily say that about, Shay. I can't say that about Luca at all. Do you think Curry is better at basketball than Luca don'ts today? Say it work to folk. Please say it. Scream it. As right now in this moment in time, that's fair.
Starting point is 01:27:24 You can say that. No, you cannot. I said you can say that. Not me. You can say that. That's perfectly fair. That's fine. You've said it for three years.
Starting point is 01:27:32 I'm giving Kerry the ultimate respect and my ultimate legacy like pick right now. Just like him with LeBron. Everyone's giving a slot for it. Yeah, that's fine. That's fine. Curry deserves it, brother. What you're seeing what Luke is doing, what Shays is when you got Curry above him. This year?
Starting point is 01:27:47 still bro like the words are it's it's crazy how much worse they are with that is that is true it i was thinking about these yesterday too it's really disgusting they said it's your last dance here's out horford yeah and then mid to midway point of the season they're like here's keep kp the dude who don't fucking play steve care was talking about this might be my last year it was cooey in the air is he gonna fucking retire this sad maybe this is tough yeah it's tough shit right brother's hurt like it's tough with that being said you are giving slop but i understand it it's salute and the only time i've ever done an offensive player list you want to slop him i get it of course curry yon is four lucet three luca two yokech one and of course the hardest debate of this
Starting point is 01:28:28 entire list luca for shay two and three that is incredibly difficult i do respect you for putting luke et too so i'll give you let's go i don't even know if i it's it's the quintessence you can say your list first i go ahead and uh yonis at five kawaiat four shay at three, Luca at two, Yocatette one. So you agree with me. You did Luca over Shea. That is like the, that's the like the conversation of the year, I think right now. Yeah, I think, I mean, offensively,
Starting point is 01:28:54 Luca is just a better playmaker than Shea. And I think that that alone gives him, gives him the nod as an offensive player. Yeah, I guess that that is a simple answer. Yeah. Like, I think it's that where we talk about like Shay being this like all-time guys. It's because as a bucket getter, She is as great as we've ever seen. And he not only is he just not a bad defender.
Starting point is 01:29:14 He's a good defender, a positive plus defender. And so the combination of those two things turn you into new age Kobe Bryant, turn you into new age Michael Jordan. And so if if Luca was like half the defense, a quarter of the defender that Shane was, like then maybe we can start having conversations. Luca is a cone. He's so he's bad defensively. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:29:37 He's not good defensively. Ironically, he's been pretty decent out of late. But to your point, at his worst and most of the time, he's bad. He's not, he's not good. A cone is being a bit dramatic for some time, but like, there's times where he's cones for sure. She's never a cone. And that alone, if we had, we had just a little bit more on that side of the ball. Luca could then start getting all the MVPs that everybody's wanted to give him.
Starting point is 01:29:58 He could be the best player in the world that people have talked about and wanted to give him the crown. But that's just not there. And it seems to just not be his bag. Yeah. So I agree with you. I went Luke over Shay in essence for playmaking, right? But it's like, I think a lot of people would treat that. as like, yeah, so Lucas is better.
Starting point is 01:30:16 Check the boxes. It's clear cut. I think it's perfectly reasonable to go Shee over him still. So obviously the scoring is consistency and efficiency versus volume and ceiling. She has the highest scoring floor
Starting point is 01:30:28 of like anybody I can remember outside of fucking Michael Jordan and LeBron. He will get his 32. It'll be other... He has a 66% true shooting this year for a guard that does not make sense. That is like truly unfathomable. You said what number?
Starting point is 01:30:42 66 true shooting. I think it's 67 now. It was tossing between rounding up or down. Either way, that's fucking crazy. I think it's 67 now. He just wanted to say 6.7? No. I just saw some set on Beacall class and I was like, damn, that's crazy.
Starting point is 01:30:57 But yeah, so either way, that's fucking crazy. That's how efficient. That's like yoke's efficiency. Yoke's just 7 foot. Like, that's crazy. Yeah. So that alone, 32 points for game, 67% true shooting is one of the best scoring seasons of all time.
Starting point is 01:31:10 Luca, obviously, is the higher usage, higher volume shooter and can give you 60. He has that upside. So if you want to debate that, scoring consistency and efficiency versus volume in many times in the playoff series, volume dictates the course of history.
Starting point is 01:31:22 Being able to go out there and drop 50 in a game, like that can be the deciding factor. So if you want to say there a wash as scores, I can understand your perspective. I'd say shade's a better score. As a playmaker,
Starting point is 01:31:33 he's not Luca. He doesn't turn the ball over at all. That is what eventually is separated for me as well. That's so valuable. He does not turn the ball over at all. He makes all the right passes. He's not a bad playmaker. He just gets the ball at his hands quick.
Starting point is 01:31:44 when the doubles come, does it to the wing, keeps the ball moving. And in some ways, while he's not throwing the beautiful skip pass on the crazy lobs that Luca does, which is amazingly valuable, keeping the ball moving
Starting point is 01:31:52 and playing within the team context and just quickly making that decision, never making mistakes, and just allowing the team around you, the ball hands around you, to get their touches and elevate everybody and not be so dominating of the ball
Starting point is 01:32:03 is extremely valuable playmaking. So despite the assist numbers and despite the wowing passes of Luca, I think as playmakers, they're very close. Yeah, I think that, to encapsulate all that at the top of this at the top of what you said what was like the main
Starting point is 01:32:18 deal breaker for me which is why I put Shea above Luca just slightly is the consistency it's when it comes to when it comes to Luca he can go off fucking 50 60 70 and it hurts bro like they're both going to give you belt but someone like Luca would give you like a fucking frying pain right like you'll feel that shit for months but Shea you're going to feel it consistently for the entire year with Luca though like it's going to leave some insane bruises
Starting point is 01:32:42 breath. But at the end of the day, when it comes between the two, like, Shays and his, she and his ability to not turn the ball over makes his floor so much safer night in and night. On top of that, too, the type of shots that he takes naturally just learn to be like more efficient, more efficient. And their, his shitters are completely different than Luca's shitter. You can still win with, with a Shay shipper. But with Luca, it completely nukes your entire ability to for the whole part. And I do think that like, Luke is one of the best floor raisers of all time. The fact that he's incredible, maybe the best ever at setting up corner three, and lobs, the most efficient plays in basketball, that he will give those to any role players
Starting point is 01:33:16 around him, gives you a crazy floor. I think there's an argument that the ceiling of Shay's play style and how he isn't so domineering of the ball and gets the ball out of his hands fast when doubles are thrown at him helps facilitate his co-stars being better and helps the overall floor of the offense. And that's why it's no coincidence that all the advanced analytics, all the like EPMs, darko, all these stuff that measure your impact, which is like on-off numbers plus a lot of contextual evidence. They measure Shea as the more impactful offensive player and that's going to be like people are going to see that and be like oh guess the number doesn't matter lucas clutely better and no she just does a lot of little things better that add up to a more
Starting point is 01:33:47 successful play style overall yeah wait mo you think you can survive a she shitter more than the lucas shir a shay sherry shitter oh shitter yeah yeah i think so yeah i think so because there's still going to be so many different now this is an offensive conversation are we talking about like specifically luca on the lakers versus shay on the thunder because i i just feel like the Thunder is so reliant on Shea's offensive production. When he does have his shiters, it's like, it's cooked. But the Lakers still have Lebron and Reeves. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:34:18 But when Lucas shits himself, it's also cooked. Like, the Lakers need to have that peak offensive value. Oh, yeah, yeah. I mean, yeah, both of them. It's just mad loud with Luca because the turnovers are nasty. And then on top of that, too, like the type of shots that he takes, where he takes literally like 10, 12, 3s a game. That's insane.
Starting point is 01:34:34 Yeah, those step back threes don't, they don't stress the defense anyway. So when you're taking stepback threes in isolation. Yeah. If those miss four times in a row, all of a sudden, you wasted four possessions with no chance of setting anybody up. Whereas the Shay drive is always going to have an opportunity to draw defenders, even if he misses his mid-range jumper, misses his layup or whatever. There's a way higher floor. I agree. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:34:51 Like for the first 29, 30 games of the year, Lucas shot like 31, 32% from the three-point line. And like, like, things weren't looking good at all. And that's, like, all that discourse is on its own right now. But for someone like Shay, like, there's just always going to be safer ways to get to the end. get to your means at the end of the day. And I think that right there makes me feel like safer overall to answer your question. Okay. It's tough.
Starting point is 01:35:17 I give you a point. Plus, Luke is great in the playoffs too. And like I said, scoring explosions can define history. Like it is an incredibly important thing to be able to do. So I don't want to downplay it as it's like. Yeah. Consistency is better, but it's not like Lou is not consistent. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:35:32 He had a rough stretch, but he still gets amazing points and amazing numbers whenever he's missing threes. 100%. I agree. Like if my, I've seen. and she take like so many tough shots they're both like equal tough shot makers luca maybe like he just has more volume when it comes to that i remember like a couple years ago when we saw she i think experiment with this two points on he took like nine 12 a game or whatever tried to look like lucca couldn't do that shit at all at all he had to develop in his game and like that it's just like
Starting point is 01:35:57 clear gaps in that and since he did that of course like we talk about him so much more so much more differently and then also if he was going back to your point is it when it comes to the turnover thing that has always been like the biggest like the biggest difference maker and that saves so many possessions that adds like invisible points onto your team invisible points on the board invisible points onto this onto the scoreboard at the end of the day so that's just so that's that's tough and that's a difference maker I wish it was a more creative pastor and playmaker that's just like cool points at the end of the day and it's more like style creative points but when it comes to just trying to get to your means I'm not going to say it doesn't matter it's clearly like
Starting point is 01:36:37 It would change Chet Holcomb's fucking life. He will look so fucking different alongside alongside Luca. But it is what it is. And that's the thing. She's not a great interior passer. That's the difference. He doesn't throw off.
Starting point is 01:36:48 Like, that's not his game. He doesn't have a good feel for those reads. And that's like, that's ultimately why I put Luca above him. Is like, that alone is a big difference and being able to set people up in that way. But I don't know.
Starting point is 01:36:58 Like we're so used to these heliocentric ball handlers over the last 15 years, Russell Westbrook, James Hardin, Luca Donchich. Don't worry about you else in there. 10 assists a game. crazy playmaking numbers.
Starting point is 01:37:09 Like, wow, RIP Magic Johnson's records. These guys are throwing out every crazy assist per year you can imagine, but also a ton of turnovers. It's all about usage and having the ball in their hands a lot. When one goes up, the other one goes up. And the kind of talking point has been, what you just do with that? You want the ball on your best player's hands. The mistakes will come with that.
Starting point is 01:37:26 She said, how about I also have crazy usage and just don't turn it over? That's just crazy. Like, he passes the ball just as much, dribbles the ball just as much and just doesn't put it in arms away. Yeah. I know kind of crazy that we're not even the big. rating one at all. Yeah, is what it is.
Starting point is 01:37:39 It is what it is. It kind of sounds like you want to put She above him. I mean, I didn't. I do want to, but I also want to put Luke above him. Like, the real answer here is they're tied to me. Yeah. Is that like, I can't put a tie, but the real answer is they're completely even to me at this moment.
Starting point is 01:37:54 Offensively. And then Chase's a better defender, so I think he's a better player. But offensively, I think they are pretty dead even. Yeah, probably. Also, once again, shout out Kau. Yeah, hell yeah. I'm surprised you could shout out. Guy, honest, you're there.
Starting point is 01:38:07 Dude, when it comes to like isolation scores this year, like after Shay, there's no one better than Kauai this season. Kauai's in that, he's in that category where every time, every time Kauai takes a midi, I think is going in. And I'm more shocked whenever he misses than whenever he makes it, regardless of how tough the shot is for him getting, getting to it. And he's so, so methodical, so in the best way, robotic, getting to his spots and just rising up and on any given night just being like yeah i'm gonna come out here from school 40 and it's
Starting point is 01:38:40 just it's gonna be easy so i think the ease in which kawai can get can get to the places on the floor that he wants to the efficiency that he can he also has shown again this year the high-end stuff he's always he's shown the the clutch stuff as well it's just been a full package of offensive scoring for kawai um so yeah he he just had to be top five for me for uh right now that's fair. And then Janice. And Janice has lost the season, but he's Janus. So who knows? Yeah. Yeah, that's, I honestly, I wanted to put either Ant or Steph at five, but I just came back where I was like, it's Janus.
Starting point is 01:39:17 He's honest. Remember beginning of the year before he got hurt. He was playing the best offensive basketball, his life. Yeah. The playmaking, the post-scoring, it was nuts. That's crazy. Yeah. You shooting 62% from the field, which is easily like the most efficient year of his career, which is- And it's annoying because I feel like any year now can be the year where he slows down his body. You tell me it's a Kevin Garnett situation. he gets two good years on his next team, I can fully buy that. It feels almost likely,
Starting point is 01:39:39 and it's infuriating that there's wasting a year of him. He better get a right. He need to sit his ass down, man. I do want to ask, healthy Tatum, where is he? Not in this tier. Yeah, he's not. Go back.
Starting point is 01:39:50 He's probably at... He's bottom half of this year. I'll speak to my list. He's probably around D. Mitch. Yeah. So 10 or 11. Yeah, maybe I'll have... One B or Sam, I guess,
Starting point is 01:40:02 would be a combo for me. Okay. Wemby, yeah, it would be Wembe, Durant, Healthy Tatum, Jalen Brown, yeah, so around that. Three points. Dancers. Damn.
Starting point is 01:40:14 Okay, yeah. 7.8, just inflation. Just throwing money. But that being said, that is any of our rankings. That is the top 30 offensive players in the NBA. Be soles, what was the best and worst take? Best take. Best take.
Starting point is 01:40:32 I think everyone just having Yokachat, one was caught up that was good that was good the worst take yes Lebron
Starting point is 01:40:40 would be crazy that's crazy I also think the curia too just because he's raised those two when he ranked looking here
Starting point is 01:40:48 for three straight years it's like what mind you I told you the brown one was fluid I told you
Starting point is 01:40:53 I told you could drop in the rankings I told you I told you could drop at any moment listen man curry is just inventive I can't say
Starting point is 01:40:59 no shit like that by anyone outside of Yok Yokich in this list right now also the band placement was kind of
Starting point is 01:41:04 He was barely on the list What do you mean? He's like I'll put him like top 15 He hates all his Eastern Conference rival He hates on Jimmy, hates on bam They get included to lose points Big Man shooting 44% On top 25 offensive players list
Starting point is 01:41:21 Well 44% isn't that crazy on its own Cat shoots 46% from the field That's the bad part You don't like cat Cat was off your list Listen man Different reasons I told you he's a Nick Due to math
Starting point is 01:41:32 What do you make your list if you didn't drop 83? Fuck no. No. No. He's history. Well, guess who dropped 83 though. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:41:42 And that's why the end of that game is so few days. Cool. Bam. Now you got to say it. With that being said, that is the end of our rankings. So now it is time for the next section of the show. It is time for Be Souls to press that button and enter Producer Corner. Yes.
Starting point is 01:41:57 You got a button now? Been at a button. Oh. Producer Corner. He always forgets where it is. Where's my question? I forget it's about me. We need to make him a theme song.
Starting point is 01:42:07 All right. My question of the day is. I sure I would. I did it last time. On a beat, let me see what I do. Don't be up here, rap for me. I'll do it. I'll do it.
Starting point is 01:42:18 Let me be. We'll be fresh from 2K17. What's something you find out about a person and you're just like, we can't be friends? Oh, what's my ick? Yeah. What's your ick? make it like non-political
Starting point is 01:42:32 I'm gonna say I'm gonna have like an ice tattoo or something I don't know imagine like for example finding out your friend doesn't tip waiters like at all like shit like that
Starting point is 01:42:44 okay do you have friends who don't do it no okay what's a friendship it's not besides political stuff yeah yeah
Starting point is 01:42:52 what's ick of yours yeah I just said imagine finding all your friend doesn't tip wait no no no you specifically yeah That is it, come.
Starting point is 01:43:01 I don't have any friends who do that. Really? Do you have any more, you think? Um. So what are annoying habits you don't like in people? And friends, because friends is a different phrasing than like relationship. It's a different.
Starting point is 01:43:14 Yeah, yeah, yeah. So friend. I can't be friends with you if like, you only take two showers a week. What? You know people like that? No, I'm just, I'm just giving out examples. But you didn't pull this out your ass.
Starting point is 01:43:25 You know people like that. No, I did. I did pull that out of my ass. I can do that, man I can do that, what are intolerable things I'm trying not to make it like I've never had
Starting point is 01:43:37 I've never like I've only cut one person like one like one like lost one friend because of something so I don't really have like a like a friendship. Yeah but this is like the question for you
Starting point is 01:43:48 theoretically what are things I'm trying to think though like okay let's let me paint your speak your language let's say Mo's single and Mo brings a new girl
Starting point is 01:43:58 to a Super Bowl watch party and you've never met the girl before and what are things she would do that you'd be like I don't want her to come around that you after it's over you talk to your wife and be like you saw what this bitch dude like what would be things like that first of all loud great scenario great great scenario I'm locked it now I'm locked it now I am crying what would be some things where you said ugh why she has no matter this is kind of recent This is up his alley. I don't know. Just not speaking to anybody. Like not saying hi is like very like I. I think like generally just like generally good manners is is.
Starting point is 01:44:42 What shoes in the couch? Huh? What about you? Overall, I think for me. If it's not your house, yeah, what are you doing? It's your couch. Somebody you never met before, but she's in your couch. I think people overall.
Starting point is 01:44:55 Shoot the couch is crazy. Yeah. People overall who just like get too comfortable, too quick. like that's always been like a pet pee for me like of course that you can talk to somebody but for the first time you know you see somebody can't do that I remember one time I had one of my high school friends coming to my house like two of them and one of them he's been like a lifelong best friend or whatever and another one I'm trying to like build a relationship with him he's not my man's but it's his man's dude came into my crib
Starting point is 01:45:18 opened up the cabinets he's like what you got in here what the fuck that's that's crazy what are you're too entirely comfortable right now you know so I think it's I think people don't who are self-aware. I think that's what you got in here. Yeah. Literally. My dad looked at me, he's like, you can't come here no more. He'd they don't bring him here. Yeah, I guess like, if you're like rude to like
Starting point is 01:45:42 waiters or something like that, that 100% is like we can't. Oh yeah. We can't. We can't. We can't rock. Yeah. Service workers. Yeah. Or like arguing for no reason to work with them. Yeah. Because some and so much at the time like it's not their fault that whatever's going wrong is going wrong. Like they really are
Starting point is 01:45:58 just a messenger and you just out here being mean to them that's that's kind of whack so yeah I would say that yeah that it's not like saying hi or like speaking whenever you like come into somebody's house or anything like that it's pretty rude I'm
Starting point is 01:46:14 I'm kind of I don't know wait so was that the guy's like that was his first time at your house yeah and did last time too yeah never seen I never seen friendship icks man I think there's I feel like there's so many but I can't I can't put him into words
Starting point is 01:46:28 Because that's how I Guys are listening to Tori Lanes That's pretty gross I think I've Pre-Meg Tori It's not post-Megory Oh
Starting point is 01:46:37 Pre-Meg Tori You just had bad taste It's fine Tori was always kind of whack But you just have bad taste It's alright You had some stuff You like some
Starting point is 01:46:43 You like Slop essentially He has some hits But you just like like Drake Slop essentially But it's fine You can like that Post-Mag Tori Now you're a loser
Starting point is 01:46:50 Yeah It always bothered me I've never understood People who were Who will nickel and dime you on on like Venmo or something like that. That bothers me a lot.
Starting point is 01:47:03 Like if you're Venmo and me for anything under $5, please do not. Under $5, how old are you? You give me a $3 Vemmo as an adult. I'm never speaking to you again. Yeah, like that type of stuff is ridiculous. Does that happen to you? Do cheap friends bother you?
Starting point is 01:47:20 Friends that are cheap? Cheap's fine. Yeah, cheap's fine. I think like, again, it's with like the, like the, the, the lower cost, like $10 or less, I feel like is very much, you get this while I get the next one. But you said less than five. Are you had somebody vimo you for $3 in your adult life? I've seen it. And it's made me like secondarily upset.
Starting point is 01:47:41 Are you mad at the people like the individuals who accepted it or the guy who sent it? The guy who sent it. Three dollars is a funny number. I mean, it's like, okay, like kind of respectable. I would be mad at the guy who sent it. Yeah. I'd be mad at like you were pressing me for $2. That's the big answer.
Starting point is 01:47:57 You sending a memo for $3, that's pressing in itself. What? Okay, so you mean sending, like, giving the money, you mean sending like sending the request? Yeah. Do you guys agree? Yeah, sending the request? Oh, sending the request is crazy.
Starting point is 01:48:10 Yeah, you guys agree. Yeah, that's what I'm saying. Okay, okay. Yeah, so that's it. But, yeah, I said that, I mean, a lot of the other, like, friendship, egg stuff or stuff where it's like, oh, like, we can't really be friends is, like,
Starting point is 01:48:23 probably much more fundamental. Yeah, like moral stuff. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, I don't, I don't know. Y'all, y'all. That's pretty much the premise of the thing. Yeah. People who, uh, chew with their mouth open type of shit. Chew with their mouth open. Nah. I can't believe you don't have a million things. I've, I have family members who do that and it's like, listen, generally, I hate a lot, but I'm generally pretty like understanding. Like, I give people a lot of grace.
Starting point is 01:48:55 But I feel like With me it's like a line though Like Once you're on the opposite side of the line Then like everything that you do is like Unruly and uncouth But for the most part
Starting point is 01:49:06 It's like yeah You're just different But yeah I'm not 100% sure Okay I do have a TikTok to pull up here real quick Please Of someone who Definitely has an answer
Starting point is 01:49:17 For what I just asked And I want to see if Y'all agree or disagree with her Okay Okay I don't know I thought you meant this is one of us. I was like, holy shit, you're pulling up one of our old tweets or something.
Starting point is 01:49:30 All right, let's see what this is. He went on a date with the cheapest guy in New York. He takes me to dinner. He chooses the restaurants and he wouldn't pay for anything extra. There's cheese extra on the burger, $2, $3 extra. It would just wouldn't get it. He'll be like, no, that's extra. No, that's too expensive. I didn't want it. I'm like, dude, it's the first eight. Can you just not be so cheap? I ate and I just left from there. I decided I'm going to pay the bill. I'm going to make a statement And I'm just, and I just left. Oh, my God.
Starting point is 01:49:57 Did you guys ever talk again? That's all y'all need to hear. Yeah, this girl's a terrible vibe. I mean, I get it. And he's his chief. Yeah. And then it went again. So she goes on a date.
Starting point is 01:50:08 Guy doesn't get the extra cheese on the burger. That's a deal breaker for her. Is that crazy? Yeah, of course it's crazy. You said, maybe he's just broke. I think it's fine. It's not crazy. It's not crazy.
Starting point is 01:50:19 Because the detail that she said, he picked the restaurant. If you're, if you are the one, If you're doing that, you're in control. You have to set your game up to succeed. You put yourself in a bad situation. You hired an offensive coordinator that you know you don't rock with. You need to play within your means take advantage of home court advantage. It was poor shot selection.
Starting point is 01:50:40 He shouldn't have picked a restaurant you couldn't afford. It was unwise. It's just $3. He could clear afford it. Probably. But if you can't, the tone and the vindictiveness around the $3 cheese is crazy. To be like, look, get this broke bitch out my face. I hate him.
Starting point is 01:50:53 I'm like the tone to be like I had to leave before the dinner was over and had to tell people about it. Like the tone is a little vindictive. I feel that. But why are you taking somebody to a place? Sure, sure. It was unwise for sure. That's bad. You can't operate like that.
Starting point is 01:51:06 Yeah, on a first date is crazy, man. You can't be cheap on the first date. You can't do it. I will ask. What if you need to be cheap? You shouldn't go on first dates? No, you have to. You got to go on first dates within your class.
Starting point is 01:51:16 He ain't going. He told her with his classes. And that it was, apparently. Apparently not. You should have took her to Chick-fil-A. Wait, real quick. I can go here, don't be going crazy. Was she adding, like, cheese to her burgers and shit like that?
Starting point is 01:51:27 Was that her thing? No, she said that he wasn't adding cheese to his bag. Oh, that's okay. That's fine. You don't want that extra. Because it was extra. No, no, no, but he wanted it, though. That's the thing.
Starting point is 01:51:35 How do you know? Do you say that? Yeah, it was like, I mean, yes. I think the specific phrasing, she told it in another TikTok. She was like, he was like, uh, the, the waitress asked him, though, do you want cheese on this? He goes, is it extra? He goes, uh, she goes, yes.
Starting point is 01:51:53 goes no I'm good I feel like a fine interaction to me you don't want a patient where you went that said but I see both sides it's fine right you wanted the cheese now you can't you can't do it you can't do it so what if you can't afford it night you can't you can't even know if they went we don't know this is no boo maybe with the cheese cake factory it's mad reasonable he doesn't want to be going too crazy I'm sorry if that if if and again like it's not even shade if you can't afford a cheesecake factor you got to play within you mean you got to be creative if you don't have if you don't have that is creative going to cheesekin factory and not
Starting point is 01:52:22 doing extra as he's creative. No, if you don't have money for a sit-down restaurant, you know what we are hitting. We are hitting this coffee shop and walk date. We're spending the all-day date. We're finding free items and free activities to do if we're not going to sit down and do that. That's bad shot selection, is bad creativity. I'm putting that all on the guy. At best, we're not going on a second date after this.
Starting point is 01:52:43 Maybe the whole leaving in the moment shit is extra. Yeah, that's crazy. If my daughter walked up to me and told me this, I'm like, you kind of drag in a little bit. Yeah. I could get it. Like a dude. I would say I get it, but. you're being rude as fuck.
Starting point is 01:52:53 Yeah, exactly. I'm like, you're doing a little bit too much. There's so many other things to, like, complain about. He chose the restaurant. Then, like, $3 cheese.
Starting point is 01:53:00 So don't call him back if you don't want to. But the shame of it is a terrible vibe. I can understand. She got asked the question. And she didn't have to be so, like, vindictive about it. You hear the toe where she was like, can you believe this shit?
Starting point is 01:53:11 You can't, you can't. I can't believe it. I understand. I'm what serious. You can't look to you on the first day. I'll ask you guys, because I had this conversation with my family. What is,
Starting point is 01:53:20 what's the most amount of gift cards that you can use on a date. Oh my God. Like, whoa, we're using multiple gift cards. One, one. Now, if it's like,
Starting point is 01:53:32 if you pull out for it. Yeah. This is what we talking about, man. We are out of our means. No, bro. Now, mind you, you like, you fully can't afford the restaurant. However,

Starting point is 01:53:52 gift cards now I'm a bum what the fuck I'm spreading out if I got four gift cards to let's say Texas Roadhouse I'm spreading it out over four trips bro I'm not using it up nah that's bad looks that's crazy I would be like hey I got a hundred dollars of gift cards we're give whatever you want to me that just means like your family is gracious right like they love you they're always giving you gifts no matter what anyone was a problem with that you I do not want to associate with them if they have an issue with me buying our dinner with Texas Roadhouse gift cards get the fuck away from me he found his it yes about shit like that get the fuck away from me there's so many like bigger things to worry about
Starting point is 01:54:27 does it change if it's a if it's like a visa gift card it's just money oh my gosh like because sometimes like you get like some random like 25 like visa gift card yeah and so it's like if i have if i have two of these i have $50 on the visa gift card 50 dollars on the gift card 50 dollars on regular can you can you use the gift cards on the first date yes gift cards first date it's kind of icky too man i don't i probably wouldn't I wouldn't do that because I don't want to have it like I would I would just avoid everything you're saying yeah but if you use a Texas Breastings specifically I think if I wouldn't say that I'm like I got these gift cards dinner's free tonight and I feel like any girl with I want her to be like dope you know like sick like I wouldn't want her to be like ew like the implications that I need to do this like I only have the gift cards yeah I just need but it's just smart yeah that was that was just the thing I just wanted to know how many and then we we we we we were having this conversation while we were like out at uh at lunch and so on our way out we asked our um we asked our waitress how many that she would feel is like being OD and she said four
Starting point is 01:55:33 she said four gift cards in what in one sitting would be in one sitting yeah that kind of me i can understand that fee the feeling of it that kind of feels like you're like scraping your last you know but if you know you're not like get over it yeah but it gives the impression that you are so i understand why it's like yeah like if we're doing if we're doing if we're We're doing like getting a better question. Do you think you give the impression that if you have gift cards, you're giving the impression as a person that's all you guys? That's a you problem.
Starting point is 01:55:58 That's what I'm saying. That's what I think it is. That's what I think anybody I'm at a day with is going to think. Oh, all he has is Texas Roadhouse. I'm not going to lie. That's the vibe I'm giving off. If we went to like, that's definitely big backish of you though.
Starting point is 01:56:11 I ain't going to lie. For four of your friends slash relatives to be like, yo, this dude loves Texas Roadhouse so much. That's kind of tough. Four of your individuals around you, You can't use Texas Roadhouse gift cards? Or like you just get like that's a different red flag. You get the you get the gift cards with like four or five restaurants on it.
Starting point is 01:56:27 Yeah. That's a funny visual. You know. So it's just mad logos on this gift cards. Cheddar's Texas Roadhouse. It's just mad, mad logos. But it does,
Starting point is 01:56:38 it does feel like that. Like bro, we can go to like the opera and then if we go to dinner and like if I pay for gift cards, I'm a feel broke. It's going to feel like in the barrel. Pure skill issue. You probably pull it out.
Starting point is 01:56:50 you have this like fucking insecurity you're like I got gift cards bitch made just pull it out be like hey free dinner and it's good pure skill and shit I wouldn't even pull out a gift card on the first date that's I probably wouldn't either but if I did like it got like me a point out that A max point he'll hear that middle drop on the first date yeah second day hi okay okay I'll pull out the discover for this okay new friendship ick feeling like you have to put on and back like the car choice indicative of who you are the first day. That means you're a bad day. That means you're not good at displaying good qualities.
Starting point is 01:57:25 I'm crying. That means you're focused on the wrong things here. You're trying to show all aspects of your game. Yeah. And all aspects? You got to show not only can I don't, I can do a 360. What are my aspects? Resourcefulness.
Starting point is 01:57:39 Strategicness. Free Texas Roadhouse. You don't think this is cool? See, man, that line of thinking right there, that's kind of like Cam Tom, Cam Thomas is. You know, it's like you don't have to do this. This is like such a one. You don't have to have this level of aesthetics in your game.
Starting point is 01:57:52 But if I can. You do it, but you can, like, you show it in other ways, though. You don't have to, like, solely focus and show the entire world that, hey, you got this. You know what I'm saying? We can see it later. I like to see it. I like to see it. You like being teased?
Starting point is 01:58:06 Yeah. I don't you, man. Kinky souls. I know. Kinky souls is in the building. We're still here. Kinky souls in the building. Kinky souls is.
Starting point is 01:58:16 Never the little one. Oh, my gosh. Big kink in this bitch. Big kinky. We need to get that buttoned that Joe button. Kinky. Are you kinky? Kinky?
Starting point is 01:58:29 Yeah. I'm saying two gift cards, by the way. I'm just saying two gift cards is the max. It's just like I never have gift cards. So I don't even know if I'd actually do it. But I think the idea of not being able to is crazy. I'll find like just random random gift cards sometimes. You find them?
Starting point is 01:58:48 Like, yeah, like a couple months ago. like a $10 like Starbucks gift card in the in my car that's crazy if my daughter or my sister or like my college best friend walked out to me and told me about how she had issue with this I'm thinking that your mind is like not in the best place there's so many other things to worry about yeah I'd say you're not entirely wrong it's a little funny but like the way you go about telling me this is just bad vibes if they do this consistently but okay consistently is different let's say let's say let's say let's say they came they told you this story you said I I I think you're doing a bit much.
Starting point is 01:59:20 And they said, you know what? You're right. We're going to go out on a second date. Second date happens. The same thing happens. You don't get the $3 cheese again. I would say that's just him. And I, if you don't like him enough,
Starting point is 01:59:31 so the real answer is, the real answer here is he wasn't cool enough and didn't like him enough to look past that. Mind you. She's looking for reasons to not like it. Mind you, that's the answer to every single day question. If he was him, she wouldn't care. She would never tell the story.
Starting point is 01:59:42 She would have been on the second date. She would have forgot about it. But because it was teetering the line, this one thing. She's like, I can't tolerate it. don't actually care about this. You just think he's black as fuck? Yeah, that's true. All right.
Starting point is 01:59:54 Look at us, man. Should we start that dating podcast? Good Lord. I did reheat some nachos with this one. Now that being said, that is the end of producer corner. That is the reheated nachos of the day. It is time for some TikTok time. Let's do it.
Starting point is 02:00:16 Welcome to TikTok time. Today, we are once again going to begin with a draft. In fact, it's kind of kind of going to be two drafts in this episode to some degree. But we're going to start off doing a draft where we do a team where we draft together. We are going to see if we can draft an 82-10 team, point guard through center and a six man. We spin a team on the left, pick a player from that team. Here's a twist. We are taking players that were in the league in 2016.
Starting point is 02:00:39 In the league in 2016. Yeah, so a snapshot of the 2016 NBA. I'll pull up the roster just in case we forget exactly who's on a team. And you get the version of that player from 2016. Perfect. Fuck. Yeah, not this year. I got to try to remember.
Starting point is 02:00:52 First off. First spin, we got Atlanta Hawks, 2016 Hawks. Kyle Corver might be the best answer. Yeah, got to get... If you want... Kyle Corford.
Starting point is 02:01:04 We need some sugar. You don't want Horford? Horford's like a very respectful. 2016, how many centers are better than Al Horford? It's a 15-16 season. They were fourth in the east that year. So yeah, we can go Horford.
Starting point is 02:01:14 We can go... Horver, we can go Paul Millsap. Dennis Shrewder off the bench. Fuck no. It's either Corver or Horford. How many centers are better than all for it in 2016? Ooh, not a lot. Yeah. Oh, not a lot. But also, Kyle
Starting point is 02:01:26 Kover is probably the outside of Steph Curry and Clay, like the best shooter in the league. If we can get Al Horford and a great power forward, that can be our best path, I think, because there's not a lot of centers better. The question, is this team trying to go 80 to and 0 in 2016? I don't know, whatever. Okay. I'm about to say.
Starting point is 02:01:43 Tough. Ah, man, I think. Because what centers would have been, it would have been buggy? We can. put AD at the five. Yeah, I think we go Horford. Worst case in narrow, you put Horford the four or six man.
Starting point is 02:01:55 Like he has a lot of versatility. Okay. Yeah, let's go with Horford. Okay. Horford at center. Could be worse. Next spin. We got,
Starting point is 02:02:03 come on. Give me something better. Give me a star. New York Knicks. 2016, Nix. Oh. Ricky K.
Starting point is 02:02:12 2016. No. Is he 16 or 17? He was there in 2016, I think. The 2015 16th. Yeah, he was 16. He was the NASSIS was there.
Starting point is 02:02:20 They had KP They still are Carmelo Anthony In 2016 But that's like Towards the end 31 year old He averaged 21.8 points per game You can be a good six man
Starting point is 02:02:30 AP Me off the bitch Low key Six man Carmelo Anthony is one hell In 2016 They tried to do that to That's a great
Starting point is 02:02:39 That's a great weapon They tried to do that too Fuck it You say AP They're trying to give You come off the bench Yeah man That order we go KP
Starting point is 02:02:46 And try to have That is rookie KP I think we go Mello six man That's elite Okay six men Okay, six-man-mello. That's kind of a crazy advantage.
Starting point is 02:02:53 Yeah. We'll see who we start above him. Maybe he moves back up. You know what? If Mello's bought in, he believes in the team, he can't play. Denver Nuggets in 2016. Fuck. We're talking about Gary Harris.
Starting point is 02:03:02 We're talking about. We're getting terrible teams, man. Jamal Murray. They were 33 and 49 this year. They did have Nicole Yokish on the team. Is Wilson Chandler on this team? Fuck, man. We're probably, so who was rookie Yokish?
Starting point is 02:03:16 Young Yokich can still do some things. Is your 60? Danilla Gallonari? I don't I don't want to take What did what did you We're trying to go 82 and no No 18 points for game
Starting point is 02:03:27 He was a good player Space the floor Yokets you do? No no no Oh Delano Deno Gallanoi What do you go What do you do?
Starting point is 02:03:34 As a rookie I don't think he played a whole lot He was a rookie in 14 No he didn't come to the league Right away Oh really? Yeah you stayed Wow
Starting point is 02:03:40 Oversease Just a blipping my memory This is his rookie year You play 21 minutes For game 10 points per game Seven rebounds Two point four is Solid you know what
Starting point is 02:03:48 Put Mello at the 3 Put Yokech at a secret No, our defense is cooked And we start both of them But do you want to pull Horfrey Power 4 And Ricky Yokitch Fuck it Let's try
Starting point is 02:03:59 I'm sure Rick Yokin could defend a thing Maybe Yo, we're We already lost this So you know what I think we have to go six man Rookie Yokic Actually did it look out on Ari It's probably better
Starting point is 02:04:09 But no Rookie Yokic is more of a weapon We knew what to do with him early Because we're time travelers We'll empower Rookie Yokish Under Six Man And start Mello That's our best bet
Starting point is 02:04:18 And we have to get in the league. Mellow at the four. Yeah, we can hide Mello defensively so far. Okay. Could be worse. We'll make Yolkish early. We need a top five. Charlotte Hornets.
Starting point is 02:04:27 Bro, fuck me. It's only Kimmel Walker. Oh my God. 2016. Your own remote sessions? Big Al? We're getting terrible teams. Nick Baton was there.
Starting point is 02:04:38 Al Jefferson. Nick Baton. Fuck out my face, right. Then I guess I got to pick Al Jefferson. Oh, hell no. We can't do that. Why not? Because of your team.
Starting point is 02:04:48 do we have? We have to go with the guard here. You got to go with Kemba. We got out over at the four. Bro, take Kemba. Yeah. I don't know how many.
Starting point is 02:04:56 Wait, was Kimby even there? Yeah, he was. Kempel was there. 100%. I didn't see him on the list. I'm blind. Where is he at?
Starting point is 02:05:02 Kempbell is there. Okay, it's year four, Kemble Walker. Yeah. He wasn't an all-star yet. It doesn't matter. It's fine.
Starting point is 02:05:07 We got to. All right. All right. 20 points for game. So far, I don't even know this team can win 45 games, bro.
Starting point is 02:05:14 I don't know, man. Steve sucks. All right, next up. Spurs, thank God. Kawhi Leonard. Thank God we got Kawhi. We can save this if we get someone on the cab. 2016, Kauai was amazing.
Starting point is 02:05:28 That defense saves us. If we get a great defender at the two, if we go one of the best players in the world, we can still be saved. Who's the best two guard? Or we can get a three. Pamela, we can get big. If we get LeBron or save.
Starting point is 02:05:39 Give me LeBron. Give me LeBron. Give me Curry. Heat in 2016. D-Wade is caught. D-Wade's cut. D-Wade's cut? He was cooked in 14.
Starting point is 02:05:49 You're talking about Hassan-White-side? Who's on 2016 heat? What's that? D-O-Water's. Yeah, D-M-Waters. Who's that white boy? Oh, Chris Bosch was still there? Oh, wait, was he?
Starting point is 02:05:58 Yeah. Chris Bosch was still there. Joe Johnson was there. Lou Aldehan was there. A defender. What are we going to do? Year 11. Tyler Johnson,
Starting point is 02:06:06 welcome to my team. I think people put Kauai, the two, and we pick Chris Bosch at Power Forward. Because 2016 Chris Bosch His last year 19 points per game Pretty efficient Yeah
Starting point is 02:06:17 He didn't fall off Before he had to leave the league It was only 31 That's I like that It was only 31 Blood Clops Kempuk Hawaii Mello Horford
Starting point is 02:06:24 Let's see Dwayway in 2016 Let me make sure This is the year It was the year It was the last All-Star season 19 points for game 45 effective
Starting point is 02:06:33 Field goal percentage Pretty bad I'd rather have I definitely I think I would I would have Bosh This was
Starting point is 02:06:39 I think this was the year Dway was hidden like playoff game winners because remember he had that playoff series against Charlotte bro he shot 15% from 3 this season over 74 games hey man it wasn't his game
Starting point is 02:06:52 no no so kawai's shooting guard Chris Bosch welcome to our team stop demon I'm not gonna lie Bosch and Horford is some space that's some skill that's like mellow and kawai I wish we had a point guard as more of a defender
Starting point is 02:07:04 because we don't need Kemp blocker scoring with Kauai and Mello this team who win a championship is not 82-0 no man I think this could be a 61 team at its best though. We got rookie Yokish on the bench, man. We're unlocking some crazy lineup.
Starting point is 02:07:18 Put Yokin's at point guard. We're going to be doing what Greg Popovich is trying to do with Soha man. Except that's going to fucking work this time. How about that? How about crossovers off the bench? Loki, this isn't too bad. We got saved by Kauai and Bush. Thank goodness.
Starting point is 02:07:33 Thank goodness we got Kauai. Yeah. If we got Kauai, she would have been spooky. Fuck, man. Next thing we are going to do. I'm going to show you three an NBA quote You have to tell me
Starting point is 02:07:45 If you think it is real Or fake that I made up At a thin air There's an arrangement About half and half of bowls You tell me to what you think First quotes I love Twinkies
Starting point is 02:07:56 From Shaq Beas This is real or fake man His fat ass Okay we get I should have locked The team I can't get to rock
Starting point is 02:08:10 Turned it over. It's real. I would like to bet it's real based off of private context. We're not cutting that. It's your problem. Oh my God. Take one of no one, Shaq. Salute.
Starting point is 02:08:28 Part of the same team, man. It's all love. That thumb punches him inside the club. Oh, my God. I'm saying real. I'm saying real. You believe he said this. What do you think the context was?
Starting point is 02:08:37 I don't know. Commercial. Commercial. Commercial. I would say he's real. One of his 35 commercials. Yeah, surely he did Twinkies at some point. Surely he put it on that brand costume.
Starting point is 02:08:46 I don't put it past by him at all. I think you said this. Why would he not say this? I said surely he did Twikis at some point. You didn't see that, man. Bees those eyes lit up. Kinky B. Solved again. He is about Twinkies.
Starting point is 02:09:00 Oh, my gosh. Anyways, this is fake. Damn. What? He doesn't love Twinkies. Damn. I'm sure he does. Well, he might.
Starting point is 02:09:09 He might. Go ahead and Google. Shack and Twinkies. See what comes up. Oh, God. Wait, man, hold on. Let me not. Pause.
Starting point is 02:09:16 But my Kyriashi is killing me right now. Next up. I'm not a twer from Michael Jordan. What does he know about twer back then? Was that even a term in the 90s? He was at Freak Nick. Well, he's a thing. Michael Jordan is alive now.
Starting point is 02:09:31 He didn't die in the 90 years. But what is he taught? But he don't be on my camera like that at all. He said this at the NASCAR race. Yeah. He's rare outside expedition for the year. By the way, I'm not a twer. He'd be inside his cave, right?
Starting point is 02:09:49 Not twerking. But I feel like being anti-twerk is adjacent somewhat handed. I'm sure he is. He was also never big like, oh, like I'm into hip-hop. I'm into rap. I can see him being on this wave. I'm going to say real. He's anti-to-tress.
Starting point is 02:10:07 I'm going to say this fake. What the fuck does he have to do with him day? This is real. What did he say this? In the 2013 interview for the promotion of 2K14, he said, I'm not a Twitterer, I'm not a twerker, I'm not a Facebooker, I'm old school. Torqu team was on his peak right then in 2013, 2014, I'm not going to lie. You know all about that? That was peak of.
Starting point is 02:10:31 I'm a victim. Back when I was in eighth grade. He was tempted. I know more love that red nose song, man. Bro, you have to stop. you're nasty he's still like that song like a red nose
Starting point is 02:10:45 like a red nose slow down grab the wall oh my gosh man these are nasty he's brushing his teeth wobble like each other I can say
Starting point is 02:10:58 I can say you're fucking gas that's so moat oh my gosh anyways yeah He wants you to know that.
Starting point is 02:11:11 Nice to know him, Jay. People don't realize Draymond could score like KD if he needed to by Steph Curry. Did Steph say this? He never, he said some, he said some stuff. I don't think he said this. Why would he say this? Like KD. Who would corner him in a position like this to say this?
Starting point is 02:11:30 Yeah, like KD is the part that I think is fake. Because I think he would say that people don't realize Dremont could score if he needed to. but I think Steph understands just how good KD is. So I'm going to say fake. Yeah, I'm going to say fake too. There's no need to say this at all. Yeah, I'm going to say fake. Yep, he didn't say this.
Starting point is 02:11:48 He would never say KD. He'd probably say Draymond can get some buckets, but he knows he'd be setting Dremont up for slander if he said Kevin Durantz. That's crazy, man. Yeah, that's a big. First W for you guys. Okay, okay, okay.
Starting point is 02:11:58 Second. Would you get the, I got the, Tomahood, no. There's a team. You're with us, man. We need first. Say what you want about me, but leave the family alone,
Starting point is 02:12:08 call up the goons up and have them freshen up the crones by LeBron James. That first part, I definitely see. That second part. This is like a lyric? Lyrics he sings? That's real. That's real. Because I could see this as a quote tweet from LeBron.
Starting point is 02:12:22 And you know when LeBron's on Twitter, he gets very much into his bag. I'm a say. You think LeBron's telling his goons are freshen up the crones? I think he'll talk like that on Twitter. LeBron has shooters and he knows it? Yes. This has to be a song there. Why is he saying this?
Starting point is 02:12:38 What is the context? I don't know, but I'm gonna say Rue. We would know this if this is rude. I feel like it's fake. Because LeBron just be saying stuff. You probably know every LeBron quote ever. A lot of the famous ones, yeah. Yeah, nothing can squeeze by you.
Starting point is 02:12:53 But this shit, I think this is fake. I think this is fake. I'm going to Rue. This is real. It is from his leaked song with Kevin Durant when they wrapped her in the lockout. It is a song. LeVron wrapped this.
Starting point is 02:13:03 It is a little. Say what you want. Believe the family alone. They'll call it the goose. Have a fresh enough to cross. Crones. All right. He said this on the track.
Starting point is 02:13:11 It's easy. Yeah. And at the end of the verse, he was like, I listen to those hook go. And then she comes insane. Oh my gosh, bro. LeBron would need a deluxe, man. You're not typed in.
Starting point is 02:13:23 You're not typed in. Man, you're right. He's top 13 for sure. Do you believe LeBron has goons at fresh up the crumbs? Yes. Yes. If you wanted to, yeah. Okay. What animal are them tofu from by Charles Barkley?
Starting point is 02:13:35 Them tofu makes it seem real real. Them tofu. Yeah, it's real. It's Charles. Yeah. This is like spiritually Charles right now. It's giving Charles. Yeah.
Starting point is 02:13:50 This is telling me you think very little of Charles Barkley. No? I can see him saying this. Them tofu feels very Charles Barkley, but I'm going to say fake. I'm going to try and trip us up here. I think I was in my bag? Yeah. You think I can replicate his diction?
Starting point is 02:14:06 You think he would. Oh, okay. nothing to do with like the actual like meaning of this you're just talking about the phrasing it's two on the nose he thinks i'd do it yeah i think it's charles i think it's true charles brockley said this he has no clue where tofu comes from i would believe there yeah yeah i believe what was that my charles brircle impression they're here again ernie uh what animal are them to from okay you have to say with some more gum shit yeah you're whispering so king of the hill character.
Starting point is 02:14:38 She's like Bobby. Next up. Who's that little explicit from the cartoon's name? Lola Bunny? She was tough. What's wrong with him, man? Sometimes I wish he had him in league today.
Starting point is 02:14:53 I hope it's real because if you made that up, now I'm looking at you crazy. Yeah, it's real. That is a good way to go about this. This is real as hell. Why would you say that? This is real as hell. Sure.
Starting point is 02:15:06 Let's go real. Yeah. It's fake. What? This is wrong with you. I captured the mind of Dennis Robin quite well. What? He's method acting.
Starting point is 02:15:16 He's dangerous. No, man. He'd be thinking too much, man. Could you see Dennis Robin say? Yeah, that's exactly how he talks. She was tough. We should have known. Exactly.
Starting point is 02:15:27 It's a modern phrasing. I did a modern word to throw you off, but you couldn't see past it. But the thing is, Dennis Rahman's time or so. And people would probably say tough in the 90s. pretty not not in the way yeah i don't think in this i can totally imagine this fucking she was tough like i can totally imagine it good job
Starting point is 02:15:49 good job you cooks i got you today do some ogy from jason tatum fuck man this single-handly ruined his legacy did he say it no that's worse that's real that's real that's real
Starting point is 02:16:07 It's worse. This is real. This is to Kobe Bryant during the finals. What do you think like he thought the like audience response is going to be? Oh, he's tough. He was going to big up his legacy and like he was going to make commercials out of this or something. Yeah, he went to be on a commercial. What the hell?
Starting point is 02:16:26 Did they win? No. Yeah, they won. This game? That was after game seven, 22. Mm. I believe. Gotcha.
Starting point is 02:16:33 Gotcha. To get the finals. It gives like the bucks or some shit. Yeah. After the heat. After the heat game. Oh, I thought this was in the final. finals against the Warriors.
Starting point is 02:16:40 Oh, man. That's crazy. They almost choked that game away. The 22 one? Yeah. That would have been hilarious. The more Jimmy Butler could have hit that shot, but missed it. Oh, the pull up three.
Starting point is 02:16:52 Oh, my God. My life flash before my eyes, man. So what question is this performative? Definition of me, man. Beesholes. I think he believes it, though. Stop that, man. You know it's performative.
Starting point is 02:17:05 He does believe it. It can be two things at one. You can believe your performatism. Yeah. It's sincere, but it's also performative. Yeah. Okay. It's performing.
Starting point is 02:17:17 Dude, I'll be so disgusted and mad if I passed away and someone texting me to have me off the whim for no reason, bro. It's like texting my phone. Like, bro, let me rest. What are you doing? Yeah. Don't pay homage to me when I'm gone. Forget me.
Starting point is 02:17:32 And posting on the internet? Forget me. Please. I think the Democratic Party needs a top-down restructure. Hell not fake. That better reflect the beliefs of his young voters on international policy
Starting point is 02:17:41 and financial distribution away from the 1% Charles Barkley. Real. He read this off a teleprompter like shit. He was the ultimate
Starting point is 02:17:47 lock-in two for him as well. There's real big words. We did it real slow. I'm more real. You said Charles Barkley's illiterate? Like, no, not illiterate but like talking like this,
Starting point is 02:18:00 that's not how he talks. I think you put a Stephen A. quote and put on Charles Barkley. Stephen A would never say this. Stephen A. believe the absolute opposite I'm saying I'm saying this is real
Starting point is 02:18:12 I think because remember Chuck had that he had that weird show for a summer where he was just going around talking politics I'm gonna say he did
Starting point is 02:18:21 yes he was going around you don't forget we are going to start a dialogue that's where it was from he was doing like town halls across the country he was what year was this like 2016 or something
Starting point is 02:18:31 no I don't I think this is fake I'm gonna say real just for fun this is fake why would he say that Charles Bucking's not talking about
Starting point is 02:18:44 taking financial distribution away from the 1% motherfucker you are 0.5% what are you talking about even worse than that he's not saying this yeah they are completely against that
Starting point is 02:18:54 hell no line was like him at all nah it's not Charles I should have put a call from his young Miami interview I don't know anything about that oh you didn't see that Charles Barker's interview
Starting point is 02:19:06 Young Miami No. He's a freak certified, man. You tapped in with the freaks. I understand you more. It was on NBA Twitter. I'm pretty tapped on NBA Twitter. I've never seen it.
Starting point is 02:19:18 That was, they sent it in the... I'm sure it was going. If I was a Caesar salad, the croutons would be my friends. The lettuce would be my family and the dressing itself would be my mom. Kevin Garnett. Why is he talking about Caesar's satellite like this? What is he talking about the dressing like this? I'm a little.
Starting point is 02:19:36 say fake here. Yeah. I don't know what context. So if you were a Caesar salad, the crew tones will not be your friends? Dude, if someone,
Starting point is 02:19:44 one of my friends said this, I'm looking at you and I'm like, is everything good? Are you okay? It feels like a movie. What did you say this? Like a movie line or something. Like they're asking KG
Starting point is 02:19:54 to be some like, what do you say this on uncut gems? Some like comedic, no. No. What's my fucking money, bitch? That's all he said on uncut gems. Crazy movie.
Starting point is 02:20:06 There was no. no talk about a Caesar salad in the uncut gentleman. I'll beat the fuck at you, Adam. I feel like this is real, though, because I don't know. I just get the vibe. This is real.
Starting point is 02:20:17 I have no. I'm going to say fake. Why is he talking about salad? I'm going to say fake. This is real. He said this. When? 2000?
Starting point is 02:20:28 No. When he said it? He loves season. Saddle like this? Yeah, it was just a random quote. He just said things. Oh, it was 2004. He vividly.
Starting point is 02:20:36 illustrated his performance in an interview before crucial playoff game, making a rather controversial prophecy. And then he just said all this. All right. You know what? Not that I think about it. He does reference food a lot in his... He does. Yeah, he does. And he went further to. After this, he said if I was a Cobb salad salad, then blank, blank, blank, blank.
Starting point is 02:20:52 A cob salad. He went deep into the salad metaphors to explain his life. See, when you're that good, you could say anything you want, right? And no one's going to question you. When you're that intimidating? The MVP thinks the croutons are his friends. Who am I to say no? Yeah, right. Go ahead. You want some radish to? Just talking. schizophrenic.
Starting point is 02:21:08 That ass. He's talking to croutts off. Get him some help. But you know what? Get three blocks a game. You can talk to whoever. You can talk to lettuce. You can talk to dressing.
Starting point is 02:21:20 Whole family. You would love these AI videos. Oh my God. Now I become death, the destroyer of worlds. Victor Momoyama. Now I become death. The destroyer of the world. Now this is this is fake.
Starting point is 02:21:34 It is fake. This is a reach. I don't think it wouldn't you would say something like this. The Destroyer of Worlds. Unless it's like quoting a book or something. He's quoting like Thanos or something. Yeah.
Starting point is 02:21:45 Now I am become death. I think his English is awesome. Like it's good. I don't think he puts the phrase like that. But why would you say I become death? The destroyer of worlds. What is he doing?
Starting point is 02:22:02 Bro, this is a dark side quote. Yeah. Like, let me what's going on. It is not a Thanos code. I mean, he, again, hung out with the monks. We know that there was
Starting point is 02:22:12 some type of spiritual enlightenment. But this is a complete opposite, though. Like, he's turning to that next page. Well, I mean, he has to use his powers for evil to, you know, to, you know, like I get it. Are we going to, I'm going to say fake.
Starting point is 02:22:25 What do you say this? He went on a big tour after, you know, this entire summer working out with everybody saying a lot of stuff. I don't think this is part of, Yeah, well, you don't know the context what he said. He's doing deals with the devil, man.
Starting point is 02:22:38 He's got to be fake. You know the context. He's not talking about talking about basketball. The only thing that makes sense if he's quoting a book, like Dernie Austin. I'm going to say fake. I'm going to say fake, too. Fesles?
Starting point is 02:22:48 Fake. This is fake. This is a quote from Jay Robert Oppenheimer when talking about his discovery of the atomic bomb. Devil, makes sense. That's funny as hell. Oh, Bahamas.
Starting point is 02:23:00 Oh, Thanos. Yeah. Real? Nothing to do with Richard Robin. I become death. It's crazy. You're like, I think this is good. No, when we talked about it for that long,
Starting point is 02:23:12 thinking it would be Wembe. That's kind of crazy. Who do you think he is? I become death. Now I have become death. Buddy, you've got 48 minutes on the court. It's not that deep. You're not the destroyer of anything.
Starting point is 02:23:25 Yeah. You cannot disrespect the caterpillar while raving about the butterfly by Mark Jackson. Tough. That's true. This is real as hell. I feel like I've heard a lot of people say this. I'm gonna just say really. I think this is in his back too.
Starting point is 02:23:40 Facts, he's a pastor. I can definitely imagine him saying this and then the commercial song goes on. This is real. Mark Jackson did say this. When he said this? I don't know, probably TV. Generational.
Starting point is 02:23:55 Bobby 2015 or something. I don't know. He's come back, man. Commercial's about to go off. He says this. Nah, his second stint was okay. He's fine. Really?
Starting point is 02:24:04 Yeah. I need some more quotes. Mark Jackson's a lot of good quotes. Google Mark Jackson quotes to see more. Each time you light, your lighter, your lighter gets lighter. Until your ladder gets so light, it won't light. That's real. That's real.
Starting point is 02:24:17 That's real. I don't even know what this means. He don't even know what this means. This is real. I don't even think it's provocative. Yo, this is putting your mind in a blender right now. I can tell. The mind just shifts you through all the meanings.
Starting point is 02:24:34 He's got mashed peas up there Much of a baby food Baby food Brain is smooth Yeah, I'm getting cooked right now y'all Just out the mud podcast I'm gonna say it's real Because Lamello
Starting point is 02:24:51 He does like to talk like this Sometimes like remember the New Year's quote Where he was like new me New Year new me Seamito Yeah He uses a lot of the same words Back to back
Starting point is 02:25:02 He's word play I'm gonna say It might be fake. He might be trying to pull a fast on, but Lemelo, this is, this is his, his back. You can completely imagine this. This is actually hurting my brain. Why?
Starting point is 02:25:15 It makes sense. It doesn't? I read a lot of breaking down for us. Each time you liked your lighter. Yes. Your lighter gets lighter. Less fluid. It gets lighter.
Starting point is 02:25:27 Yeah. I just got that on. Until your lighter gets so. Oh. Yeah. There's no more fluid for that. shit. Yeah. That's a legit bar. Honestly, this might be too smart, so I'm
Starting point is 02:25:38 like, I don't know who has this in his bag. I'm gonna say real. I don't know. Gotta be real. It's too deep. I'm going fake. Yeah, exactly. This is not in his bag at all. This is the first thing you see. This is the first thing you see if you Google stoner thoughts. This is the first thing that comes up.
Starting point is 02:25:55 Stoner thought quotes. That's bad accurate. That's the first image. That's a mad accurate. I'm fine. But you can see the mellow ball seeing this. 110%. Did you see? There was a social media clip going on the other day.
Starting point is 02:26:09 Or it happened. I think it was supposed to like two weeks ago or whatever. And like the social media person for the Charlotte Hornets, she was like, oh, how many balls are in this, are in this jar right now? And then he took the jar, poured it all. He was like, none. I'm sorry, I got to do it to you. It was hilarious.
Starting point is 02:26:22 Did you guys see that? Yeah. Yeah. That shit was hilarious. None. And that's the last one. Oh, man. My little ball, man.
Starting point is 02:26:32 Yeah. I'm not trying. Yeah. I can see him being a part of that community. So it's like, that's why I thought that one was real. Yeah. Okay. Next thing we are going to do.

Starting point is 02:27:47 because there's only 15 players. So it would be smart not to bid zero. Otherwise, if somebody else bid zero, you might just get flip up a coin and fucked. Okay, 16.8 point per game. All right, next. At least one all-star appearance. Ooh, that's moving me.
Starting point is 02:28:01 Okay. I almost had a bid, I got to go. 25 and under. 25 and under. Okay. $500 for five players. Make sure you distribute it well.

Starting point is 02:42:41 Okay. All right. You got $300 left? I got to be frugal. I got to play the margins. I got to play the margins. Damn. All right.
Starting point is 02:42:50 Here we go. Has a sibling who hangs out with streamers? Oh, hell. Had an altercation with a fan this year. Huh? Career 39% from three. Average 19 plus points per game for an eight year time span. A sibling who had,
Starting point is 02:43:07 hangs out with streamers. I was like, Jontay Porter? Ah, man. Alteration with a fan this year. 19 for 8 plus years. Bucket. Sibling hangs out with streamers.
Starting point is 02:43:21 Damn, I don't know who this is. I'm not tapped into the streaming game. Same. I am. I know. Sibling, he's out of streamers. Alteration with a fan this year. What kind of altercation?
Starting point is 02:43:33 That happens all the times. I don't know. 39% from three. Let me, let me say, no hands were thrown into altercation if that. I kind of figured, we'd know about that. I kind of figured it was like arguing some way. Okay, I'm scared.
Starting point is 02:43:45 I'm all going to laugh. Oh, wait, has a sibling, he's over streamers. I have no idea who this is. No, I don't know. Streamers throws me off. I don't know. Three, two, one. 100, 100.
Starting point is 02:43:55 Zero. Y'all got them. Whoever this may be. All right. Zach Levine. Oh. Oh. Crazy.
Starting point is 02:44:02 You're going deep into the weeds. More has fewer players than me. You're going deep into the week. Hey, let him decide, man. Let him decide. What? Should we do? who has fewer players? Is that warfare?
Starting point is 02:44:10 I don't know. Let the same amount of players. Never mind. Okay. I think we should default to that. That makes sense. But now when it's tired, what do we default to? Maybe who has more money? Nah. Be so you pick. It's up to you, man. You just would rather Beeslesville.
Starting point is 02:44:23 Of course, you would. Let me give it a mo, man. I'm going to give it a mo. Or should we do? Who needs a position? No, he already gave him the mo. All right. I put him at the three. I got a lot of shooting around Shangoon and Rusto. So.
Starting point is 02:44:38 no you don't Zach Levine is a 40% 3 points you got a shooter around him a high volume 3 point shooter I'll be fine Around Russ SGA isn't out the ball Russ is gonna be space in the floor

Starting point is 02:45:44 I spent all my melody. It's not even true. It's okay. We're playing Scotty at Small Ball 5. This is, I need a star at the two. Damn, man. Scotty would have made my team come together. I need a star at the two.
Starting point is 02:45:55 Yo, your team would have been comical Barnes, pool, Edwards and Jermon. The locker room is a place. We always talk about and she'll play with Scottie Barnes and work for each other. I was like, I got to go all in. I'll take a free center. Who cares?
Starting point is 02:46:08 Yeah. Damn. Okay. Next, next, next. Here we go. Explosive. Okay, my favorite type. Signature shoe athlete.
Starting point is 02:46:19 Oh, God, everybody is. Elite highlight rule. It's going to be some bullshit. There's only three hints. This could be anything. This can be Michael Jordan or it could be like Lanks and Gallowin. You know what? I don't care about my team.
Starting point is 02:46:32 I don't care about nothing. He don't care about his life right now. Y'all put your stuff down. I'm putting five hundred up with this player like this. You're not bidding you get to know. I'll put three. You got it though. That's my last player.
Starting point is 02:46:42 Okay. He's splurred. He wants explosive to This is John Morant Oh, okay Your team doesn't make sense Fuck put John at the one
Starting point is 02:46:52 Paterozy at the two Paul George is the three This is the most like Yo This is disgusting To you're not gonna lie Your team's ridiculous Just the worst influences
Starting point is 02:47:01 Outside of Scotty Barnes That's a 34 win team Yo man With two all-stars They could teach you some things though That's a horrible team Rosier and Morant together Oh buddy
Starting point is 02:47:11 Right to me I got Rosie and Pat Will, man. Moni's two more players. I need one. I need two more players. I'm out.
Starting point is 02:47:19 You only have $300 though. Yeah. Ooh. You have to know. You have to know. Sometimes you just got to end your misery. He said 500. Fuck it.
Starting point is 02:47:28 He didn't have to do that. You could have got like Wembeen to save your life. Watch what you come up. I know. Next. I don't care. Former MVP. Okay.
Starting point is 02:47:38 L defender. Fuck. Career 22 point per game score. Hmm. was not an all-star till year four L defender is kind of throwing me in
Starting point is 02:47:51 for a loop a little bit year four but you're a former MVP you're also at this point you have one position left you kind of got to decide if you want them or not exactly
Starting point is 02:48:00 exactly career 22 player game score um not he's an insanely put everything down I need two players though who cares yeah he can't
Starting point is 02:48:12 yeah what I want for the deal I have filled four. Yeah. It's gonna be pot the balloon all over again. I don't want this lawyer. I'm cool.
Starting point is 02:48:18 100. I figure he wouldn't want him because he needs a power forward. Is this step? Please tell me a Steph Curry. It's Nicole Yolkich. Oh. Uh,
Starting point is 02:48:27 I deserve it all. Yokets. Oh my God. Yokin's Dream on again. Oh, man. I deserve it all. I could have. That's insane.
Starting point is 02:48:40 Uh, Jordan Poole. Anthony Edwards. Dramon Green, Nicole Yokich. Okay. You have $200 left. I have $300 left. Damn, bro.
Starting point is 02:48:47 We're flipping a corner for the last two players. Wimby saved me. Basically, you decide this next player. You can have them if you want. I get more money to me. So it's really up to you. You hold the cards now. Money spread the fuck out of you if this is the right player.
Starting point is 02:48:59 Interesting dynamic we have here. Down to the wire. Known for shot blocking. Fuck it. 10 plus years in the league. Unfuck it. Oh, this is Gobert. Constantly in trade rumors.
Starting point is 02:49:13 Oh. Has a 100 plus million dollar contract. No, hell no. Zero. I don't want him. Nope. Nope.
Starting point is 02:49:20 No. We reached an impasse. No. Zero. I don't want him. Nope. What the fuck happened here? I'm true.
Starting point is 02:49:27 I'm cool. Nope. I think I know who this is. You know what this is? I think this is Miles Turner. Ah. I feel like this is Miles Turner. Let me look at the roster.
Starting point is 02:49:37 You all both need one? Yeah. Miles Turner would be the worst. What do you do? The next person, yes, he's the last player. I'll pick. I'll pick right now
Starting point is 02:49:47 I won't even I'll just decide right now we should rock paper scissors actually if neither one of us want them and it's even this is rock paper scissors
Starting point is 02:49:53 okay go ahead if there's no clear tie breaker that be sold some pick let's do it just one time rocked
Starting point is 02:50:00 a bit scissors shoot just one time not best of three on shoot all right let's do it rock paper scissors shoot take them it's all yours
Starting point is 02:50:07 I got rock mow got scissors for audio listeners who's this master he knew it he knew it I said $0,
Starting point is 02:50:16 bro, I didn't want him with my team. He's still gone. Now, I could do worse. These two, like, I could do worse. It makes a little bit of sense. Yeah, I could do worse.
Starting point is 02:50:25 I like this. Who is my last player? One player left. My 200 bucks. Who we got? Your last player. Yolkich saved you. Let's see the hints.
Starting point is 02:50:31 I think Yoke could save the fuck out of me. Get sniped. All right. Former Steals leader. Jimmy Butler. Jimmy Butler. Dated a recognizable. I, recognizable IG model.
Starting point is 02:50:40 Uh, I don't know. You should be straight, I think. Regardless. IG model is now married to an NFL player Damn Okay
Starting point is 02:50:49 Have played for three teams Oh Who's the guess Bryce Young? Oh What's the guess? Has played for three teams Nope
Starting point is 02:50:57 This is not Yeah No Not the one of Bryce Young No Is he said What the Bridget model? Not married to
Starting point is 02:51:02 I'm just talking I don't know who's married I had no fucking clue Stills later to play for three teams She'd be a brother For more than three teams Darren Fox was a still leader at one point
Starting point is 02:51:12 You know this is? Okay Who plays? Yeah, I have no clue Who steals leaders The three teams This is Dejante Murray
Starting point is 02:51:19 Oh, okay Wait, NFL player? Yes She is? That was a nose ball Who's his ex with? Nasty man Deshawn Watson?
Starting point is 02:51:31 Yes, wait, Oh yeah, Janice, whatever her name is. Oh, yeah But you got a good team in Yeah, they go together, bad Somebody married
Starting point is 02:51:41 Deshawn Watson? Yeah. Yeah. She was stuck by her man too. Oh my God. Because they started, they started dating up like right after the stuff. And she stayed home? Stayed. Well, he already got the contract.
Starting point is 02:51:54 Yeah. He already gotten it. She was up there. Fighting. That's crazy. You stay away from my man. Leave alone. So I, Friday listeners.
Starting point is 02:52:04 My final team. Jordan Poole, Dejante Murray, Anthony Edwards, Draymond Green, Nicole Yokic. I got Russ. Shea. Exactly. Why are you laughing? I got Turner and Shangoon. Say your team, please.
Starting point is 02:52:16 Me. I have John Morant, Terry Rozier, Paul George, Patrick Williams, and Scotty Barnes. Good grief. Yeah, as you've done, we got the most. God. I could have had Yolk until I would have spent my last man. You could have MVP, like a save bet. Russ is only washed up one in the league right now.
Starting point is 02:52:35 You really should put more money down. I said 500 for Russ. I said 500 for Russ. What was going on? What was he? I thought I saw Janice, though. It was clearly Rust. Donovan put $400 for Pat Will.
Starting point is 02:52:49 I needed somebody. I was mad. That's true. You were angry better. You better emotionally? Not even. I forgot what it was. I thought Patrick Williams was Scotty Barnes.
Starting point is 02:52:58 Oh, yeah, true. You did. Yeah. I got $300 for Jordan Bull. I knew that was fucking Miles Turner, too. He got Yolkes for $100. I know. Ultimate bargain.
Starting point is 02:53:06 Everything good comes around. That's insane. All right. That's the end of that. Next thing we are going to do. what did I write down? What's next? I can't remember on top of my head.
Starting point is 02:53:16 I'm so bad at these like clues at these glue games. How do you cook yourself? Were you too fru or what? Patrick Williams? Patrick Williams? The Rozier. Yeah, the Rozier one was the real one.
Starting point is 02:53:28 Yeah. Because I could probably live with just one bad spot, but. Yeah. Next thing we're going to do, we're pretty far into the NBA season now. I think we kind of know the story of this year. We got to pick who has been the best NBA player
Starting point is 02:53:41 in the league at every position for just this season. Okay. Point guard two center. Who holds the crown for the 2026 season and this season alone? Okay.
Starting point is 02:53:49 Point guard. Oh. The hardest one immediately. Are we putting Shay at two just to make this easy? No. It's being hard. I'll put Shay.
Starting point is 02:53:57 Then Shae? The MVP. Yeah, Shay's the MVP. I mean, shout out what Luke Dodgers has been doing as of late. There's no one caught that too. What?
Starting point is 02:54:05 They just be letting shit slide. What happened? Man, leave me alone, man. Don't talk to me neither, y'all, right? I didn't catch it. leave me on. I missed it.
Starting point is 02:54:15 Their ears are, they work, they choose when to and when to not work. That's crazy. Luca is damn close. Lucas is going to be the best nub of this list. Shea gets me too, he's going back to back MVP for a reason. Yeah,
Starting point is 02:54:25 it's a conversation, tough one, but you say. It's a conversation that's incredibly hard, but we know the answer. It's not a conversation. All right. Shea right now is at the peak
Starting point is 02:54:35 of like all time stuff. Best point in the world. Yeah, so it's not. Shooting guard. I guess we go, yeah. Nobody's really challenging. at least you want to consider jaylam brown a shooting guard
Starting point is 02:54:44 then we can have conversations. Nah, nah, yeah. Would J.B.B. B.S. small Ford? Yeah. I mean, he's Disney right now. He starts at two, doesn't he? Because I think they start Derek White and paying pictures off the bench. They start, like, Howser, three? I should know this. And now just Tate is back. I think he's playing to. I think they're usually having paid pressure off the bench.
Starting point is 02:55:01 Yeah. Either way. I'm playing A. Over Jalen Brown. Yeah. 100%. If we, regardless of where we counted, Ant really took the crowd for best shooting guard in the league a couple years ago. Right now, he's maintaining it he got better this year almost averaging 30 sorry sorry jaylon brown might be first time all NBA but not over it
Starting point is 02:55:19 not over rant yeah small forward Jason Tatum's hurt if we counted Janeland Brown is a two I guess we could cheat him at 3 2 plays a little bit of both this is kind of nasty coming into it that's what I thought we were going to do I thought we were going to put Jalen Brown at 3 that's fine yes I got Jalen Brown at 3 he has to go somewhere I think it's but Katie's up for discussion too one of us had Katie I think you had Katie above Jalen Brown I'm taking Jalen Brown. Offensively. Over KD this year. This this year, Jane and Brown's been better. Yeah. Okay. That's fine. Yeah, we could do J.B.
Starting point is 02:55:50 What's he listed at? So ESPN lists him as a guard. And Basso reference lists him as a small forward. So up to us at our discretion. He's a wing. He's a wing. He plays balls. We can put Jaylon Brown small forward and recognize what he's done this season. Yeah. That's cool. How to give you at least one Celtic? No more less goals. We might have to change our mind. No, no, no, no, don't too much outward excitement. Brown. Otherwise, I regret my decision. I bet. Yeah.
Starting point is 02:56:13 Power forward. Fuck. Who has been the best power forward in the league? I mean, Yonis is the best, but he's been hurt all years. So if you want to disqualify him.
Starting point is 02:56:20 Yeah. I kind of want to. I also think we should disqualify him for the stupid soap opera that he's put everybody through. Yeah. Now he's like having the PA sue his team. It's just always bullshit in the air.
Starting point is 02:56:30 Yeah, I don't like that. Is it Bam? Is it supposed to be your league, man? Bam. Hell no. He's a center. I mean, he's in conversation that he's not supposed to be in that. If he can get to 83,
Starting point is 02:56:40 he can do anything. He can be the best power. Nobody else in the league has even sniffed 83. Over the last 15 games, Palo is getting back in the convo, but the first 60 he was terrible, so maybe he doesn't deserve it for the year. Listen, Bam is an elite defender and has 83 points.
Starting point is 02:56:53 Please, he's not even sure. Zion's been healthy. Cat? Ben better. Is Katz-Zap. See, Akins are doing his thing on a terrible team. Y'all doing all this just not to name him. LeBron James.
Starting point is 02:57:03 The one, the only. We're putting Scotty. Jalen Johnson. Oh. Yeah. Okay, Scottie fell off offensively. You know what? We can go Jalen Johnson to power forward.
Starting point is 02:57:14 Unless you want to go LeBron. You, why would he want to go LeBron? We know he wants to go. Does Kevin Durantle the power forward? Uh, no, because they start Shangoon. Yeah, Jabari's starting so now. Okay. Yeah, Jabari's starting.
Starting point is 02:57:29 So is he either LeBron or Jalen Johnson. Lebron or Jalen Johnson. Where are we leading? We'll go Jalen. Come on, man. My vote is Jalen Johnson right now. You can go Jalen. Fuck it.
Starting point is 02:57:37 Jalen Johnson, best power for him to leave for this season because, Giannis has been hurt and dramatic. Center. Is there any argument for Victor Vibu Mnjama? There is. He's going to be second on my MVP back. Yokic got hurt. I had a little rough stretch to get back.
Starting point is 02:57:50 He's getting back to being at Yokish level. So he saw Yolkij. Wembe. Wembe's been arguably one of the best players in the world. I think with the ascension, I think... Two C two. Low key might be one seed. This year.
Starting point is 02:58:02 This year alone, Wembe has been better. Wembe season has been better than Yokish. He's had a better calendar regular season so far than Yokish. And that is why we have to be one seed. to go Wemby. Better two-way player. Way better. Wembe, the crowd is yours. You're here.
Starting point is 02:58:14 No longer the future is yours. You've arrived. Smokes Yoki's honestly. Okay. Well, maybe you've got to relax a little bit. I'm out voided, but now we're like, smokes Yolk.
Starting point is 02:58:24 I mean, he does things that Yokis can never dream of. Defensively? Oh, okay. Damn. It's Wemby thing. Okay. Okay. Next thing we are going to do.
Starting point is 02:58:37 Let's do that game we did again a couple weeks ago, where we have teams and we have categories of players and we have to try to ask can we have this player for the other person's category. Last time we did me and B.Soles together we can mix it up. We can do me and Mo first Donovan and B.Soles.
Starting point is 02:58:48 Right. So Donovan text B.Sol's a category of player that you want to try and guess and Moe I'll text you one. Last time... We're trying to get the category, right? Yeah, well, you're asking players in saying can we have that player
Starting point is 02:59:00 that does they fit our category until you can guess the category. Okay. Last time you guys did best handles. We did chubby players. Let's do awesome we did freaky players anything come to mind
Starting point is 02:59:13 I just texted you is there enough though got it there's probably not enough I mean I think if you've players who look like had something on there then I think okay okay let's do that
Starting point is 02:59:26 now we make a quick yeah let's do that okay you guys are your category mm-hmm okay me and Moe versus Donovan and Beasles it's actually split across the screen perfectly right now look at that
Starting point is 02:59:37 can we get LeBron James James. Yeah. Yeah. Okay. Got LeBron early. Can we get Steph Curry? No. I mean, technically, you could. I don't know what you're talking about. Maybe technically, but, but if your reaches not that deep, then you can say, you probably shouldn't want to have Kerry. You probably wouldn't help you. Yeah. Okay. Okay. Um, can we have Chris Paul? No. No. You actually, you absolutely cannot have Chris Paul. No. Like, that's super no. Okay. Can we have Shaq? Yes. Yes. A LeBron and Shaq.
Starting point is 03:00:09 So we said yes to LeBron and Shaq? Yeah. Can we have Wemby? No. Hell not. That'd be real funny if you could have Wemby, though. I wish you could have Wembe. Yeah.
Starting point is 03:00:18 Not tall, not short. Okay. Sure. Take that away from that. Can we have Kevin Durant? No. No. Damn.
Starting point is 03:00:29 Two big guys, one skinny guy, noticing a pattern. Okay. Okay. Is it on me? Yeah, take a guess. Can we have Zion? No. No.
Starting point is 03:00:43 Nope. It wouldn't be good either. Yeah, I don't even want to see that. I don't want to see him in this category. Oh, you ask. Okay. So we got LeBron. We got Sack.
Starting point is 03:00:53 Could we have, could we have Rudy O'Bear? No. No. No. Okay. So it's not buff guys. Okay. Rudy Gau Bear's buff.
Starting point is 03:01:06 Okay. They're thinking about it a little bit. I'm thinking about a little bit. Nah. Okay. Can we get, are we asked Shay? We want to ask?
Starting point is 03:01:22 Have we asked it? Oh, we haven't asked, no. Can we get Shay? You cannot get Shay. Damn, bro. You guys have half of curry so far. Well, no, not like that. Well, I guess.
Starting point is 03:01:35 But I guess that works, too. Can we have Nicole Yokic No No yokets It's not a high BMI Okay Cool
Starting point is 03:01:48 Take a guess Can we get concanipple Fuck no you can get concaninple No you could never in a million You can't get the opposite of con canipple No I said you can get Mm-mm
Starting point is 03:01:58 Yeah you can have the opposite of concanipple No Can you give Vince Carter Smart turn That's the opposite of concanipple I guess No, I don't think that Vince Carter. Oh, crying. No, it's my turn.
Starting point is 03:02:11 Can we get Rajon Rondo? No. No. No. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. So we should double up because you went Vince Carter. Can we get Jalen Duren? Yes. I'm noticing some things. Who do you guys have on the board so far?
Starting point is 03:02:30 Nobody. Damn. They have half of Steph Curry. We're going nowhere quickly. They have half of Curry's face. Half of Curry. Once you get one, the floodgates will open. All right.
Starting point is 03:02:47 Take your guess. Can we get Michael Jordan? No. No, you cannot get Michael Jordan. A little bit of a calmer, no. Sorry, unfortunate for you. Nope, you can get him. Can we get David Robinson?
Starting point is 03:03:03 Yeah. Okay, I'm starting to notice. I wonder what this might be. Can we get, can we get, can we get Blake Griffin No You cannot No yeah
Starting point is 03:03:16 I don't know Nope you can't get Blake Can we get Blake Can we get Blake Griffin Yes Yeah Walking these motherfuckers down Yeah you can't get Blake at all

Starting point is 03:10:31 And he's healthy, too. He would just say hi. How are you? Okay. That's a hit, though. That's a hint. He's not like overly old. He's not going to be like Steve Batch.
Starting point is 03:10:39 Is this player going to be a, uh, not that's a special question? Is this player... I lost track. Is he... I think they're like 15 right now. 15 or 16. Is he still around his like prior occupation?
