Gil's Arena Breaks Down Bronny James' ROUGH 1st Quarter as Gilbert Arenas & The Gil's Arena Crew react to JJ Redick's decision to give the Los Angeles Lakers some juice by giving Bronny extended minutes to start their game against the Philadelphia 76ers and discuss how the heir to LeBron James' throne failed to deliver during the best opportunity of his young career. They also break down how the injury Anthony Davis suffered last night changes things for the Lakers roster heading into the NBA Trade Deadline and debate if Tyrese Maxey is deserving of a spot in the NBA All Star Game after carrying the 76ers through an up and down season riddled with key injuries to Joel Embiid & Paul George. They then react to yesterday's news of DeAaron Fox asking for a trade from the Sacramento Kings to the San Antonio Spurs and debate if teaming up with Victor Wembanyama & the Spurs' young core is the right move for the speedy point guard. Finally, the Gil's Arena Crew reacts to another season of no name hoopers in the NBA Dunk Contest and discuss Caitlin Clark's decision to turn down the NBA's offer of participating in the 3-point contest.

[12:50] Speaker 5: Oh, Isaiah.
[12:52] Speaker 2: K's gone over 15 plus four of his last five games.
[12:55] Speaker 5: You got K doing eight or seven rebounds assists, but
[12:59] Speaker 5: then you got Isaiah. Actually, he rebounding and then Durden rebounding.
[13:06] Speaker 5: Ain't no rebound. He ain't going to get them rebounds.
[13:08] Speaker 5: K is averaging 15, though. And look, and it's Indiana,
[13:11] Speaker 5: so he going to score. This is going to be
[13:13] Speaker 5: a score game.
[13:13] Speaker 2: So K averaging 15 plus the rebounds and assists in
[13:16] Speaker 2: four of his last five games.
[13:17] Speaker 3: Score game. It's a score game for him.
[13:19] Speaker 1: That's it.
[13:19] Speaker 3: I did my research.
[13:20] Speaker 5: Did his research.
[13:21] Speaker 2: So we asked the chat, are they riding or fading
[13:23] Speaker 2: with Kenya's picks for this evening? 66% said that they
[13:28] Speaker 2: are riding with your picks, Kenya.
[13:29] Speaker 3: Look up Kenya.
[13:30] Speaker 1: And the chat has been really supportive lately.
[13:33] Speaker 3: Hopefully this will hit. I like Malik.

[13:36] Speaker 3: I don't know. I don't know. Malik. Nine assists and
[13:39] Speaker 3: a couple rebounds.
[13:41] Speaker 2: If you like these picks, want to ride with them,

[13:57] Speaker 2: So we've also started tracking picks. With the partner packs,
[14:00] Speaker 2: let's take a look at the updated standings. Andy Aaron
[14:03] Speaker 2: going to go under.
[14:04] Speaker 5: 42-52. They playing Philly. Philly don't play. Wait, what was
[14:07] Speaker 5: it yesterday? It was not that. What was it yesterday?
[14:11] Speaker 5: Him and Max are going to be out there, motherfucker,
[14:12] Speaker 5: running right by each other.
[14:14] Speaker 3: And they're coming.
[14:15] Speaker 1: Off a back-to-back.
[14:16] Speaker 3: I want to know who's keeping track.
[14:18] Speaker 1: They did update it. I think you said you wanted
[14:20] Speaker 1: it updated.
[14:20] Speaker 3: No, that ain't it.
[14:21] Speaker 1: 20?
[14:21] Speaker 5: No.
[14:21] Speaker 1: Not against that team. You ain't got no shot blockers.
[14:26] Speaker 5: That's good. 42-52. 52 picks.
[14:28] Speaker 1: You've won 5.3 times for Brett.
[14:31] Speaker 4: Oh, okay.
[14:32] Speaker 1: 80% of your picks correct.
[14:33] Speaker 2: Although 6 for 8, math not mathy, but we will
[14:37] Speaker 2: say 8%.
[14:37] Speaker 5: Okay, wait. This is what I'm talking about.
[14:43] Speaker 6: Brandon was 6 for 6 yesterday, right?
[14:46] Speaker 1: Mm-hmm.
[14:47] Speaker 3: He went 0 for 3.
[14:47] Speaker 1: He lost. He went 0 for 3.
[14:51] Speaker 3: How many picks?
[14:52] Speaker 5: He had 6 picks yesterday, right? Oh, he had 4?
[14:54] Speaker 3: Okay. And then Jalen didn't play, did he? Jalen played.
[15:01] Speaker 5: A.D.
[15:01] Speaker 3: Left with a stomach.
[15:02] Speaker 5: So he went 0-3 then?
[15:04] Speaker 1: He was 0-3. Woo! 76%, 7.7 times the press.
[15:07] Speaker 2: Swaggy has still been boycotting the Pickhams. We will try
[15:10] Speaker 2: to get his mind right. So Gil was 31-39 for
[15:14] Speaker 2: your Pickhams yesterday since been updated to.
[15:18] Speaker 1: 31?
[15:18] Speaker 3: 31-39.
[15:19] Speaker 1: 31-39.
[15:20] Speaker 3: So you was 8?
[15:20] Speaker 5: 31-39.
[15:21] Speaker 1: So 11... So they updated your current.
[15:25] Speaker 5: Okay.
[15:25] Speaker 3: To what you was asking for. You wanted your current.
[15:27] Speaker 3: Now you.
[15:28] Speaker 5: All right.
[15:29] Speaker 6: So.
[15:31] Speaker 3: Who's in the lead?
[15:34] Speaker 5: Me.
[15:34] Speaker 1: By a long shot. Mathematically, it's not even close.
[15:38] Speaker 3: Because you have more picks.
[15:39] Speaker 1: But that's what I'm saying.
[15:40] Speaker 6: Mathematically, it's not even close.
[15:43] Speaker 3: But if we're looking at the board.
[15:45] Speaker 6: Mathematically, it's not even close.
[15:47] Speaker 1: Mathematically.
[15:48] Speaker 5: I'm just going on percentage. You feel me?
[15:50] Speaker 3: Huh?
[15:50] Speaker 5: I know I ain't got my glasses on. No, I'm
[15:53] Speaker 5: not tripping. I'm trying to look at it.
[15:55] Speaker 1: I'm like, is something moving? Something's moving with the stream.
[15:59] Speaker 1: Did the numbers move?
[16:01] Speaker 2: 86% of the correct picks are coming from Sean, current
[16:03] Speaker 2: leader in correct pick percentage.
[16:04] Speaker 3: He said mathematically, too.
[16:06] Speaker 6: If I stop right now with that, the chances of
[16:11] Speaker 6: you going Keeping 80% or higher in the next 40-something picks, yeah,
[16:18] Speaker 6: that's less than likely.
[16:19] Speaker 3: You know what? We can prove it.
[16:21] Speaker 1: We will find out.
[16:21] Speaker 5: I can just stop.
[16:22] Speaker 3: We will find out.
[16:23] Speaker 1: And then you can just go, and I guarantee you,
[16:25] Speaker 1: when you get to 52, you won't have 42. If
[16:29] Speaker 1: you want to put something on it.
[16:32] Speaker 5: This is like jumpers, baby.
[16:33] Speaker 3: This is like.
[16:34] Speaker 1: Jumpers right now.
[16:36] Speaker 5: First of all, we don't even know where all these
[16:37] Speaker 5: picks came from. This is a number that just popped
[16:39] Speaker 5: up on the screen. And you had more than everybody else.
[16:43] Speaker 5: So that's how we're not going to even track it.
[16:45] Speaker 5: I think you're just like 8 for 10 right now.
[16:47] Speaker 3: You two more.
[16:48] Speaker 1: He's like 8 for 10.
[16:49] Speaker 5: He's 8 for 10, 80%. All this other shit. Look.
[16:54] Speaker 5: He ain't, man, we ain't even been doing this shit
[16:56] Speaker 5: 52 times. I've been posting every day.
[16:58] Speaker 1: I post every day. 52 pics.
[16:59] Speaker 5: I do it every day. He posts other people's shit.

[17:15] Speaker 1: Gil just wins.
[17:16] Speaker 5: Because he's the biggest cheater in the world. So Gil

[17:21] Speaker 5: know he's cheating, man. I want two. Yeah, I want two.
[17:24] Speaker 5: I want two. Why has he got so many more
[17:28] Speaker 5: than us? Why do we start the shit where he

[17:34] Speaker 5: this happen?
[17:35] Speaker 1: Why are you counting those? Why wouldn't you start when

[18:44] Speaker 6: 14.5 points higher. Bam, 7.5 rebounds higher.
[18:48] Speaker 3: So those are... Cheryl, you looking at him?
[18:52] Speaker 1: Look, those are my.
[18:53] Speaker 3: So if we track.
[18:54] Speaker 5: How many picks everybody's made since December, he's not going
[18:59] Speaker 5: to be at 52. Since December?
[19:01] Speaker 6: I just, this is four, but it's not up there,

[19:07] Speaker 1: Going to have four more.

[20:17] Speaker 2: NBA All-Star Weekend, a little over.
[20:18] Speaker 5: Two weeks away.
[20:19] Speaker 2: The dunk contest field is set. Let us take a
[20:22] Speaker 2: look if we can. Two-time reigning champion Mack McClung, who's
[20:26] Speaker 2: currently on a two-way deal with the Magic, looks to
[20:28] Speaker 2: become the first player in league history to win the
[20:30] Speaker 2: contest three times. He'll square off against a pair of
[20:34] Speaker 2: rookies in Spurs guards, Stephon Castle and Bulls rookie Matas Bouzelis.
[20:38] Speaker 2: along with Buck's second year wing, Andre Jackson Jr. So
[20:43] Speaker 2: on a scale of one to 10, 10 being the
[20:45] Speaker 2: most turnt, how excited are you for the dunk contest
[20:48] Speaker 2: at NBA All-Star Weekend?
[20:49] Speaker 1: If I take my son to 10, if I take
[20:56] Speaker 1: Cash to 10, he'll be excited. He'll be happy? His
[20:59] Speaker 1: excitement will make you excited? Absolutely. That's good parenting. Why
[21:02] Speaker 1: are you in comment? If Cash doesn't come and you
[21:04] Speaker 1: have to go on your own.
[21:06] Speaker 3: Who's in it?
[21:07] Speaker 1: Fire? Mack McClung. Mack McClung, Stephon Castle from the Spurs,
[21:12] Speaker 1: Matas Buzelos from.
[21:13] Speaker 3: The Bulls, and Andre Jackson Jr. from the Bucs. Shit,
[21:21] Speaker 3: Mack going to win it again.
[21:25] Speaker 1: Mack McClung.
[21:25] Speaker 3: Yeah, he's going to win it again. I'll go with Castle.
[21:28] Speaker 3: Fuck it.
[21:29] Speaker 5: Yeah, I'm going Mack.
[21:32] Speaker 4: Why is it only four?
[21:34] Speaker 5: Because that's all it needs to be.
[21:35] Speaker 7: Is that all that wanted to do it? Because it
[21:37] Speaker 7: used to be more than that, right?
[21:39] Speaker 5: No?
[21:40] Speaker 1: There used to be more?
[21:42] Speaker 4: It was more than four.
[21:42] Speaker 3: Yeah, it used to be more.
[21:44] Speaker 4: And they had, what, like three rounds?
[21:46] Speaker 3: Yeah.
[21:46] Speaker 2: They would have the clock, and then you could only
[21:48] Speaker 2: get the attempts.
[21:48] Speaker 1: I mean, it shifted.
[21:50] Speaker 7: It doesn't really excite me.
[21:54] Speaker 3: Excited about the dunk contest at all, Cheryl?
[21:56] Speaker 1: Am I? Yeah. You can tell the truth.
[21:58] Speaker 4: If my son was in it, I would be.
[22:02] Speaker 1: Because he won the G League. He should get the
[22:04] Speaker 1: invite because he won the G League joint.
[22:06] Speaker 7: I know.
[22:07] Speaker 4: He's just doing the G League one again.
[22:09] Speaker 3: No, he should be in the big one. It should
[22:10] Speaker 3: be him and Mac.
[22:12] Speaker 4: I like that.
[22:13] Speaker 1: Yeah, they should have a face-off. That's where Mac started at.
[22:18] Speaker 5: He did.
[22:18] Speaker 1: So he got the opportunity to go showcase his fucking
[22:21] Speaker 1: leaping ability in front of the world, so why wasn't
[22:24] Speaker 1: your son? I don't know. Adam!
[22:28] Speaker 4: I like the idea.
[22:30] Speaker 1: Adam Silver, we need, hey, I'm saying we need to
[22:32] Speaker 1: get Cheryl's son in the dunk contest.
[22:33] Speaker 4: Well, it's just different. It's different than it used to be, so.
[22:37] Speaker 1: Yeah, we need to get her son in the dunk contest, man.
[22:39] Speaker 1: Let's start a petition.
[22:40] Speaker 5: Let's do it.
[22:41] Speaker 1: You have the power. You got time.
[22:42] Speaker 4: You got plenty of time.
[22:42] Speaker 1: You have the number one basketball show.
[22:45] Speaker 3: Yeah, that's good.
[22:45] Speaker 7: I know.
[22:46] Speaker 3: Gilbert.
[22:46] Speaker 1: In the same country Adam Silver lives in.
[22:49] Speaker 4: Your full Gilbert. Full government.
[22:52] Speaker 2: Y'all seeing the fun? Are you excited to offer the
[22:53] Speaker 2: dunk contest? Yeah, I'm going to do what I'm doing
[22:57] Speaker 2: now during the dunk contest. Look at the girls that
[22:59] Speaker 2: are in the chat. Just in the chat, man.
[23:01] Speaker 5: Just be in the chat. Who the fuck are these people, man?
[23:04] Speaker 5: Just be honest, man.
[23:06] Speaker 1: Are y'all serious? Are y'all doing this shit on purpose? Like,
[23:12] Speaker 1: are y'all fucking up the ratings on purpose?
[23:14] Speaker 5: Like, I think you guys are sandbagging.
[23:17] Speaker 6: The all-star game at this point. You guys are trying
[23:18] Speaker 6: to prove a point.
[23:19] Speaker 3: Not one star.
[23:20] Speaker 1: Because, I'm sorry.
[23:22] Speaker 6: You're telling me we watch every night motherfucking giraffes fly
[23:27] Speaker 6: through the motherfucking air. Half-feet-throw line coming through that can
[23:31] Speaker 6: with more Jalen Green. We watch all these motherfuckers fly.
[23:36] Speaker 5: And you picking who?
[23:38] Speaker 4: Yeah, but.
[23:38] Speaker 5: Kenyon Martin Jr. hit his head on a goddamn near
[23:41] Speaker 5: rim one time. Not him either.
[23:45] Speaker 4: Is it because they don't want to do it?
[23:47] Speaker 5: I don't even fucking know.
[23:48] Speaker 3: What they want to do.
[23:48] Speaker 5: Well, I don't know.
[23:49] Speaker 7: Or does the league say, here's who's going to be
[23:51] Speaker 7: in the dugout?
[23:52] Speaker 5: Why ain't their picks are swinging?
[23:54] Speaker 6: This shit going to be like 86, 85.
[23:58] Speaker 1: You are doing it. You are doing it.
[24:01] Speaker 5: You are doing it.
[24:02] Speaker 3: Motherfuckers be like, wait a minute, hold on.
[24:04] Speaker 4: I ain't trying to know.
[24:06] Speaker 1: I agree with you.
[24:06] Speaker 6: In the 80s, when you all see Michael Jordan and
[24:08] Speaker 6: Dominique Wilkins, them the only two that was going to win.
[24:12] Speaker 1: The rest of them, props. Come on, show some love.
[24:15] Speaker 5: They were props, though. I didn't think he was.
[24:18] Speaker 3: Going to be there.
[24:19] Speaker 1: I watched the 87. I seen Otis Smith. He was
[24:22] Speaker 1: in Dallas, too, so he's from Dallas, so he walked out.
[24:24] Speaker 1: He did a 360 windmill, got a 42.
[24:27] Speaker 3: Dominique Wilkins did a regular windmill, 50.
[24:29] Speaker 1: Like, okay, all right.
[24:32] Speaker 3: You know, hey, y'all.
[24:34] Speaker 5: Just go ahead.
[24:36] Speaker 6: But back then, it was team awareness. So the guys

[25:40] Speaker 3: bad job.
[25:40] Speaker 5: Whoever it is.
[25:41] Speaker 3: Come holler at the arena.
[25:43] Speaker 1: You got to put some people's names so somebody knows.
[25:45] Speaker 1: Speaking of big names, so... I mean, it's like they don't...
[25:48] Speaker 1: They're missing the concept of entertainment.
[25:51] Speaker 3: And you got to put some more money on it.
[25:52] Speaker 2: So, speaking of big names, so Matas Bozelis will represent
[25:55] Speaker 2: the Bulls in the dunk contest. But on Tuesday, two-time
[25:58] Speaker 2: slam dunk champion Zach Levine showed that he still got
[26:01] Speaker 2: boosties after posting this video on his TikTok.
[26:04] Speaker 3: Let's take a look at the video. 50.
[26:11] Speaker 1: He posted it with the caption, might have to get
[26:13] Speaker 1: back into the.
[26:14] Speaker 5: Dunk contest, dot, dot, dot, question mark.
[26:16] Speaker 3: If I'm him.
[26:17] Speaker 1: Shrug. If I'm him, I'm entering.
[26:21] Speaker 3: And winning it.
[26:22] Speaker 1: And just give me my third one. Shit, ain't no
[26:24] Speaker 1: high jumpers in here.
[26:27] Speaker 3: Thank you.
[26:28] Speaker 5: Oh, he still got it.
[26:29] Speaker 2: So, we talked about Zach, but I want you guys
[26:32] Speaker 2: to give me the four active players that you'd want
[26:34] Speaker 2: to see compete in the dunk contest.
[26:36] Speaker 1: You can only pick four. Who would you want to see?
[26:38] Speaker 2: Who would make you want to watch it, make it
[26:40] Speaker 2: be primetime viewing again like it used to be back
[26:43] Speaker 2: in our day?
[26:45] Speaker 3: Jalen Green, Ant-Man. Yes, Starstudy. John Morant.
[26:49] Speaker 5: Starstudy. And.
[26:56] Speaker 1: Zion. Shit, there you go.
[26:59] Speaker 5: Wow.
[27:00] Speaker 3: That's a hell of a dunk contest.
[27:01] Speaker 1: Yeah.
[27:02] Speaker 5: Wow. And then you throw the sharp boy in there
[27:03] Speaker 5: just for... Yeah.
[27:04] Speaker 3: Because he.
[27:05] Speaker 5: You can throw the rest of the ones you were
[27:07] Speaker 5: talking about. Throw them in there as the other four.
[27:09] Speaker 5: Because KJ is a one-foot jumper. Yeah.
[27:11] Speaker 1: KJ, sharp, counsel.
[27:12] Speaker 5: And he can jump off two-two.
[27:13] Speaker 3: I know, but I'm just saying you can jump off one-two-two.
[27:15] Speaker 1: And then throw Cheryl's son in there. Wow.
[27:17] Speaker 5: KJ, fly. As the other four. Right?
[27:21] Speaker 3: He was a champion, right?
[27:22] Speaker 5: Yeah.
[27:22] Speaker 3: Throw him in there.
[27:23] Speaker 4: That's pretty good.
[27:24] Speaker 1: Yeah, he should get in because he's a G League champion.
[27:26] Speaker 1: G League should be on that stage. It should be eight.
[27:28] Speaker 1: It should be eight. It should be eight.
[27:30] Speaker 5: Let's go.
[27:31] Speaker 3: This is something.
[27:31] Speaker 5: Let's call it a dunk contest.
[27:33] Speaker 1: Let the fans see.
[27:34] Speaker 5: Right? Let the fans pick. Like, they do the all-stars. Yeah, fans.
[27:38] Speaker 1: Like, you got to do it, boy. No, let the
[27:39] Speaker 1: fans pick.
[27:40] Speaker 6: Like, I wouldn't mind if the fans pick because it
[27:43] Speaker 6: kind of put pressure on a lot of people, too.
[27:44] Speaker 5: Well, give them a pool to pick from because fans
[27:46] Speaker 5: are going to be picking.
[27:47] Speaker 3: Yeah, you got to give them a pool to pick from.
[27:48] Speaker 5: Yeah.
[27:48] Speaker 3: You got to give them direction.
[27:49] Speaker 1: You got to give them direction. You got to give
[27:52] Speaker 1: them direction.
[27:53] Speaker 5: They're going to put LeBron. Yeah. It's going to be
[27:57] Speaker 5: Steph Curry. Uh-huh.
[27:58] Speaker 1: He's going to be looking at that shit like.
[28:00] Speaker 5: You gonna have Luka in that motherfucker? Like, come on, man.
[28:03] Speaker 5: I wouldn't mind seeing.
[28:04] Speaker 2: Luka in the dunk contest just for the comedic effect. Or, like,
[28:07] Speaker 2: Zack Eady or somebody like that. Just put a picture.
[28:09] Speaker 5: That's a nice score, though. Yeah, them shits is outstanding.
[28:13] Speaker 5: Makes you want to see it.
[28:14] Speaker 1: Chastain, Amon Thompson, they would love to see him.
[28:16] Speaker 5: Both of them. And his brother?
[28:18] Speaker 3: Yeah. His brother Cole.
[28:20] Speaker 5: His brother more athletic than him.
[28:26] Speaker 1: I think Ja probably because he can't palm the ball.
[28:29] Speaker 3: It's a little hard.
[28:30] Speaker 1: Just like with Steve Francis in it, he got limited
[28:33] Speaker 1: what he can do. Like some people are dunk contest dunkers.
[28:36] Speaker 1: But he's still going to be flashy.
[28:37] Speaker 5: Some people are game dunkers.
[28:38] Speaker 6: Some people are game dunkers. No, he's going to be flashy.
[28:41] Speaker 6: Some people are like Ja's a game dunker. Well, let
[28:43] Speaker 6: him go one-on-one.
[28:44] Speaker 3: You put a.
[28:45] Speaker 1: Motherfucking body down there and let that motherfucker twerk out.
[28:48] Speaker 1: for Zach to be with me for every big man
[28:52] Speaker 1: in the league under the rim let Dodgers take turns
[28:54] Speaker 1: see who we can dunk on yo yeah but nah
[28:56] Speaker 1: that'll be yeah they doing a bad job horrible with
[29:00] Speaker 1: promoting it with with the product that they're putting out
[29:04] Speaker 1: there um so hey uh just all you.
[29:10] Speaker 6: Like I think KJ should get back in all the
[29:12] Speaker 6: older older people that's sitting in these um positions of Decision-making.
[29:20] Speaker 1: Stop listening to yourselves. You're outdated, right? Just stop listening
[29:26] Speaker 1: to yourselves.
[29:28] Speaker 6: You are outdated to what the consumer wants to see.
[29:32] Speaker 6: The consumer watches Instagram, YouTube, Twitter, TikTok. They see dunking
[29:42] Speaker 6: all motherfucking year.
[29:45] Speaker 5: Right?
[29:47] Speaker 6: They're exposed to high-level creativity. So what ends up happening
[29:52] Speaker 6: is when you put a bunch of people that they
[29:55] Speaker 6: can't do it, they're not interested in it.
[29:57] Speaker 1: They don't know their name, they're not watching them.
[30:00] Speaker 6: You, like, the demographic you're missing is the youth, 35
[30:05] Speaker 6: to fucking 10 years old. Start looking at what they're
[30:10] Speaker 6: looking at. These jump teams, these team flights, and these
[30:14] Speaker 6: motherfuckers sitting there doing this with the backboard between the
[30:17] Speaker 6: legs two times, you might.
[30:19] Speaker 1: Want to try to figure out how to put them
[30:21] Speaker 1: in it.
[30:22] Speaker 6: To get the viewership you're missing.
[30:24] Speaker 3: I just thought of something.
[30:25] Speaker 1: Mm-hmm.
[30:27] Speaker 3: Just that fast when you said it.
[30:28] Speaker 5: Mm-hmm.
[30:29] Speaker 1: You let them go and you let the guy in
[30:30] Speaker 1: the lead try to implement, do.
[30:31] Speaker 3: The same dunk.
[30:32] Speaker 1: He got to get one of them dudes to do
[30:34] Speaker 1: some of that boom, boom shit. And you get Zach
[30:37] Speaker 1: Levine to go behind him and boom, boom.
[30:39] Speaker 3: He got to try to do the same thing.
[30:41] Speaker 5: What about this? Yes.
[30:44] Speaker 9: Right?
[30:46] Speaker 3: What about two-on-two?
[30:48] Speaker 5: Two-on-two dunk contest? Combine scores, shit like that.
[30:52] Speaker 1: Oh, that's nice.
[30:52] Speaker 3: That's nice.
[30:55] Speaker 1: They got to pick their teammate.
[30:57] Speaker 3: They got to pick their teammate.
[30:59] Speaker 1: See how easy that shit.
[31:04] Speaker 3: Is when you get people that know basketball?
[31:06] Speaker 5: At that point, now it's like NBA Jam. You got
[31:08] Speaker 5: the dunker and then the other dude. And now you
[31:11] Speaker 5: can actually do collaboration dunks and all that.
[31:14] Speaker 6: You know, it's so funny because you might get a
[31:16] Speaker 6: name that you wasn't expecting.
[31:18] Speaker 1: Absolutely.
[31:19] Speaker 6: All because the chances of you and me combined.
[31:23] Speaker 1: Oh, we'll win it. We'll win it for sure. So
[31:26] Speaker 1: we asked the chat, how excited are you for the
[31:29] Speaker 1: dunk contest? We gave them three options.
[31:31] Speaker 2: Very excited. Not excited, but will watch. Trash, not watching.
[31:35] Speaker 2: So 7% said very excited.
[31:37] Speaker 5: At what percent?
[31:38] Speaker 2: Seven percent said they're... Seven.
[31:41] Speaker 5: Seven. Seven. Ow. Seven.
[31:44] Speaker 3: 44% said trash, not watching.
[31:46] Speaker 1: 49% said not excited, but will watch. See?
[31:50] Speaker 5: Wow.
[31:50] Speaker 3: Because it's the dunk contest.
[31:51] Speaker 1: What's so funny is, I know they're not going to be.
[31:53] Speaker 3: They ain't going to be doing shit else.
[31:54] Speaker 6: They're not going to be paying attention to this, but
[31:57] Speaker 6: these are viewers.
[31:59] Speaker 1: These are people watching. You need to see what they're saying.
[32:02] Speaker 1: Seven percent said what?
[32:06] Speaker 3: Excited.
[32:07] Speaker 4: Not a, oh, 7% excited.
[32:09] Speaker 1: 7% said they're excited about this dumb content. Very excited,
[32:12] Speaker 1: excuse me.
[32:12] Speaker 6: That lets you know how far removed you are on.
[32:16] Speaker 1: They might have clicked it on accident.
[32:17] Speaker 3: Because if you put some other names on it.
[32:19] Speaker 1: Sometimes you get excited with the poll.
[32:20] Speaker 6: Yeah, you put some other names on it. At this point,
[32:25] Speaker 6: if you're LeBron, you just do it.
[32:27] Speaker 1: Just do it.
[32:28] Speaker 5: Yep.
[32:28] Speaker 1: You never did it before. Never did it.
[32:30] Speaker 3: Never did it.
[32:31] Speaker 1: Because it's, I understand why.
[32:35] Speaker 5: Creativity is not the same.
[32:36] Speaker 3: He's jumping from the free-throw line doing this shit.
[32:38] Speaker 4: Bronny and LeBron together.
[32:40] Speaker 1: LeBron winning at 40. They missed that window with him, man.
[32:43] Speaker 1: So with LeBron, he wins at 40. He's ready to
[32:45] Speaker 1: say he loses at 40.
[32:45] Speaker 4: People would tune in to watch that.
[32:47] Speaker 3: You should have made him do it as a rookie.
[32:48] Speaker 3: You should have made him do it as a rookie, man.
[32:50] Speaker 5: People would want to watch Bronny and LeBron together.
[32:54] Speaker 6: Yeah, they should have made Bron do it as a
[32:57] Speaker 6: rookie season.
[32:59] Speaker 5: It was the easiest form. He did the McDonald's, right?
[33:02] Speaker 3: Yeah, he did. Yeah, he did McDonald's. So let's keep
[33:04] Speaker 3: this thing moving.
[33:05] Speaker 1: He lost that one, right?
[33:06] Speaker 3: No, he won.
[33:09] Speaker 1: Shannon Brown. That was Shannon Brown's one? No.
[33:12] Speaker 5: Yeah.
[33:12] Speaker 3: Right?
[33:13] Speaker 1: That was Shannon Brown? What?
[33:16] Speaker 5: No, that was Gerald Green.
[33:19] Speaker 1: In the dunk contest with him? I thought it was, oh,
[33:20] Speaker 1: I don't know. I swear that was Shannon Brown.
[33:22] Speaker 3: I think he won McDonald's. David Lee won the year.
[33:23] Speaker 1: With who?
[33:24] Speaker 3: David Lee beat James.
[33:26] Speaker 1: Yeah, David Lee beat James.
[33:28] Speaker 3: And the year after that was Brian. He won. Yeah,
[33:30] Speaker 3: Brian won. He won 2003 McDonald's. Yeah, who was that?
[33:33] Speaker 3: Let me see. Remember, like, J.R.
[33:34] Speaker 1: Giddens was in it, if I'm not mistaken?
[33:35] Speaker 5: J.R.
[33:36] Speaker 3: Giddens was in it. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
[33:38] Speaker 1: He was a flyer.
[33:38] Speaker 3: He was a flyer, if I remember. Yeah, he was
[33:40] Speaker 3: jumping every time.
[33:41] Speaker 1: He was a little nervous. You know, that's what I'm saying.
[33:43] Speaker 1: Some guys are in-game dunkers. Some guys are creative dunkers.
[33:47] Speaker 1: You know, most of the guys who can jump high,
[33:50] Speaker 1: they can jump high.
[33:51] Speaker 2: If y'all remember, LeBron primarily entered his name. Primarily entered
[33:55] Speaker 2: his name in the dunk contest a while back, but
[33:57] Speaker 2: never followed through on it.
[33:59] Speaker 1: He said, I'm primarily entering my name.
[34:01] Speaker 3: Me, if I'm naming it, like, hey, Bron.
[34:03] Speaker 4: I don't even remember him.
[34:04] Speaker 1: You got to speak Bronese to understand where he's going.
[34:06] Speaker 6: I'm going to give you a million dollars to put
[34:07] Speaker 6: your name in the dunk contest. And then last game
[34:11] Speaker 6: of the season, hammy. I mean, last game of the run,
[34:16] Speaker 6: what's the name?
[34:17] Speaker 1: Just hand me.
[34:17] Speaker 5: I need the excitement to come towards dunk.
[34:18] Speaker 3: Just have him pull it in warm-up.
[34:20] Speaker 1: And then pull out in the warm-up, and then get
[34:22] Speaker 1: ready for Sunday.
[34:23] Speaker 3: Fuck it.
[34:24] Speaker 1: Fuck it.
[34:26] Speaker 3: I got everybody in the building. I don't give a
[34:27] Speaker 3: fuck if they're disappointed.
[34:28] Speaker 1: So Shannon Brown wasn't in that McDonald's.
[34:31] Speaker 6: Once you buy the ticket, God damn it, I don't
[34:33] Speaker 6: give a fuck about your review.
[34:36] Speaker 2: So sticking with the NBA All-Star Weekend theme, NBA was
[34:40] Speaker 2: looking to build off the success of Steph versus Sabrina
[34:42] Speaker 2: Inescu three-point shootout from.
[34:44] Speaker 1: Last All-Star Weekend.
[34:45] Speaker 2: But according to a report from Sports Business Journal, Kaitlyn
[34:47] Speaker 2: Clark ain't going to be there with SBJ reporting that
[34:50] Speaker 2: sources said Clark is not interested in shooting three-pointers off
[34:53] Speaker 2: a ball rack considering her practice regimen consists of catch
[34:58] Speaker 2: and shoot three-pointers or shots off the dribble. And unless
[35:01] Speaker 2: she is persuaded otherwise, she will decline the invitation. So
[35:04] Speaker 2: Shams followed that up. With a tweet in the last
[35:06] Speaker 2: hour saying, Indiana Fever star Kaitlyn Clark will not participate
[35:09] Speaker 2: in NBA All-Star special three-point shootout in San Francisco. Wants
[35:12] Speaker 2: her first three-point contest to be at WNBA All-Star in
[35:16] Speaker 2: Indianapolis this summer. Her representative at Excel Sports said today.
[35:21] Speaker 2: So Clark recently celebrated her 23rd birthday. Fever posted a
[35:23] Speaker 2: video of her knocking down 50 of 54 catch-and-shoot threes.
[35:27] Speaker 1: Shot, I see you shaking your.
[35:28] Speaker 5: Head over there.
[35:30] Speaker 2: Thoughts on Kaitlyn Clark declining to participate in the NBA
[35:33] Speaker 2: All-Star weekend. saying she'll do it WNBA All-Star Weekend in
[35:37] Speaker 2: Indianapolis this summer?
[35:39] Speaker 5: As separate as it seems, I think she's doing the
[35:43] Speaker 5: noble thing as a female leader. She's putting the females first.
[35:47] Speaker 5: She's saying, if I'm going to do it, I'm going
[35:49] Speaker 5: to do it here first. I'm not going to, because
[35:52] Speaker 5: it's piggybacking. It's kind of what's happening. And it's basically
[35:56] Speaker 5: allowing Caitlyn to come over and bring this crowd over
[35:58] Speaker 5: here to our crowd. And it's not our crowd going
[36:02] Speaker 5: over to there. So she would rather Y'all come see
[36:04] Speaker 5: me first. Let me be the winner over here. Because
[36:08] Speaker 5: she might lose. Fuck around and lose your first one
[36:11] Speaker 5: over here. What's the point of going over here with
[36:13] Speaker 5: the confidence that I.
[36:14] Speaker 4: Might lose again? No, I respect that.
[36:16] Speaker 7: Because Sabrina did the opposite, right? Sabrina shot in last
[36:21] Speaker 7: year's All-Star Game with Steph, but refused to participate in
[36:25] Speaker 7: the WNBA three-point shooting contest.
[36:29] Speaker 4: So, yeah.
[36:30] Speaker 5: That's a great opportunity for Kaylin to take advantage of that.
[36:34] Speaker 5: Good shit.
[36:34] Speaker 2: There are also reports that Steph may participate in the WNBA.
[36:37] Speaker 6: Yeah, I was just wondering, can the men go down
[36:40] Speaker 6: there and, you know, get a couple.
[36:42] Speaker 5: Of awards and shit? Go ahead and steal the couple.
[36:48] Speaker 5: Go ahead and steal the couple. I know Trump is
[36:50] Speaker 5: in office, but fuck this. I feel good about myself.
[36:54] Speaker 5: Get a couple of awards.
[36:56] Speaker 1: But I can beat you.
[36:57] Speaker 4: I can beat you.
[36:58] Speaker 5: Get a couple of awards.
[37:00] Speaker 4: Get a couple of awards, you know.
[37:02] Speaker 5: What I mean?
[37:03] Speaker 1: Well, come on.
[37:04] Speaker 2: Sure, you can respect the move. I'm doing that WNBA.
[37:07] Speaker 2: I'm not trying to mess with y'all. Come over here
[37:09] Speaker 2: and see me. We're going to be in the nap,
[37:11] Speaker 2: as they call it.
[37:13] Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, and she's at home.
[37:14] Speaker 7: It's the first time Indy's had a W All-Star game.
[37:17] Speaker 4: Like, I respect it.
[37:20] Speaker 2: I'm a fan of Indianapolis. I love that everything is
[37:22] Speaker 2: centrally located.
[37:23] Speaker 4: Not a fan of Indianapolis.
[37:25] Speaker 1: Not a fan of Indianapolis.
[37:27] Speaker 5: Not a fan at all.
[37:28] Speaker 1: They got steak and shake.
[37:30] Speaker 3: That's it.
[37:31] Speaker 2: You know what I'm looking for when I come to
[37:33] Speaker 2: a city. The first part of her statement.
[37:35] Speaker 6: She didn't eat.
[37:37] Speaker 4: Which part?
[37:37] Speaker 5: Cheese steak. Oh, but she doesn't shoot off the rat?
[37:40] Speaker 4: She doesn't shoot off the rat.
[37:41] Speaker 1: What the fuck do you think you're going to shoot
[37:43] Speaker 1: off when it's in Indiana?
[37:46] Speaker 5: Well, you never know.
[37:47] Speaker 3: PR. It's just a PR thing.
[37:48] Speaker 5: That brings me to my next question. You got to
[37:53] Speaker 5: say why. It's the rack.
[37:54] Speaker 7: I don't want to do it.
[37:56] Speaker 1: Your brand.
[37:57] Speaker 6: I don't want to shoot.
[37:59] Speaker 3: I want to build up the WNBA.
[38:02] Speaker 6: I'm cool.
[38:02] Speaker 3: She left it open at the end. What'd she say?
[38:04] Speaker 1: Unless I'm convinced otherwise. I'm persuaded otherwise.
[38:06] Speaker 5: Give me some incentive. I might start shooting off the
[38:10] Speaker 5: rack when I warm it up.
[38:11] Speaker 3: The part is.
[38:14] Speaker 6: If you're the NBA and she says that shit, she
[38:16] Speaker 6: has a price, I'm doing it.
[38:18] Speaker 3: Why not? I'm doing it.
[38:21] Speaker 1: You know, the men are going to be mad at him.
[38:23] Speaker 1: I got $ 42, 000 to be in this motherfucker.
[38:25] Speaker 6: You're going to give him $ 50, 000?
[38:27] Speaker 1: You're going to give him $ 5, 000?
[38:29] Speaker 5: Okay.
[38:29] Speaker 1: Married best.
[38:30] Speaker 3: Married best.
[38:31] Speaker 5: 2025.
[38:31] Speaker 2: Should the three-point contest give players the option of going
[38:34] Speaker 2: off the rack or doing catch-and-shoot?
[38:38] Speaker 5: I think so.
[38:40] Speaker 3: Passes fluctuate.
[38:42] Speaker 1: Yeah, who's going to be passing?
[38:43] Speaker 5: The gun. What about the gun? Get the little gun joint.
[38:45] Speaker 4: That shit would take forever.
[38:47] Speaker 5: It ain't fast enough.
[38:49] Speaker 3: That'll take forever.
[38:50] Speaker 1: You could speed it up.
[38:53] Speaker 8: No.
[38:53] Speaker 5: You could do point seconds, point five.
[38:55] Speaker 4: That'll take forever.
[38:56] Speaker 3: That's how I shoot.
[38:57] Speaker 1: I get them off quick.
[38:58] Speaker 3: 25 seconds?
[38:58] Speaker 6: Wait, wait, how many seconds is it?
[39:01] Speaker 1: I think it's like a minute and ten now or something.
[39:04] Speaker 5: You got a passer that's right there that's just.
[39:07] Speaker 3: Here you go.
[39:08] Speaker 5: Here you go.
[39:08] Speaker 3: Here you go.
[39:09] Speaker 1: That's perfect.
[39:10] Speaker 6: Too fast. Here you go, but too fast. Arm going
[39:13] Speaker 6: to get tired real fast. I mean, it's very different.
[39:15] Speaker 3: That rack is unrealistic.
[39:17] Speaker 5: That's what she's saying.
[39:17] Speaker 3: I don't fucking play with no damn rack. Duncant's is
[39:20] Speaker 3: unrealistic to an in-game dunk.
[39:22] Speaker 5: That's the layup line dunking, man. That's the layup line dunking.
[39:29] Speaker 1: I mean, let me come. is the layup line dunking.
[39:32] Speaker 4: I mean, nobody shoots off the rack in a game.
[39:35] Speaker 5: Nope.
[39:36] Speaker 4: No, I'm saying.
[39:37] Speaker 7: So, like, that's what the three-point shooting contest has always been.
[39:41] Speaker 3: Dunk contest.
[39:41] Speaker 1: Nobody does dunk contests in the game either.
[39:44] Speaker 5: Somebody must be complaining about that shit.
[39:46] Speaker 3: They're trying to change it.
[39:47] Speaker 5: Huh. Her?
[39:49] Speaker 6: No.
[39:50] Speaker 3: She just complained about that. She told me, I don't
[39:52] Speaker 3: shoot off the rack. So they already talked about changing it?
[39:56] Speaker 3: They already talked about changing it?
[39:58] Speaker 5: What?
[39:58] Speaker 1: No. I'm just throwing it out there. Stirring the pot,
[40:01] Speaker 1: as they like to say. Yeah, they won't change it.
[40:03] Speaker 4: That's what you're doing.
[40:03] Speaker 5: They won't change it. How does Steph look off the rack?
[40:05] Speaker 5: You look fine, right?
[40:06] Speaker 4: You don't matter.
[40:07] Speaker 5: Steph doesn't look... I think she's probably... He started slow.
[40:09] Speaker 6: I think she probably tried it off the rack and didn't.
[40:12] Speaker 6: It didn't go well because her form is higher, so
[40:15] Speaker 6: pulling it down and.
[40:16] Speaker 5: It kind of fucks her up a little bit.
[40:18] Speaker 3: If you can shoot, you can shoot.
[40:19] Speaker 1: I ain't gonna lie.
[40:19] Speaker 3: I ain't gonna lie.
[40:21] Speaker 1: Period.
[40:21] Speaker 3: If you can shoot, you can shoot.
[40:23] Speaker 5: All right, but let's keep this thing moving.

[40:54] Speaker 2: because the SeatGeek thing, you get $ 20 off your order,
[40:56] Speaker 2: but what if you go into a whack game? You'd
[40:57] Speaker 2: be seeing those things online all the time, like the
[40:59] Speaker 2: get-in price was like $ 4. Can I get some bread back, SeatGeek?
[41:02] Speaker 5: Can I get some bread back? You know what?
[41:04] Speaker 1: I'm with Kalen on this, man. That's why they call
[41:09] Speaker 1: me Agent 12.
[41:10] Speaker 3: It was them racks. It was leaning left. It was
[41:14] Speaker 3: leaning back.
[41:16] Speaker 5: Some was leaning forward. Some was leaning back.
[41:18] Speaker 4: That's right.
[41:18] Speaker 5: The racks were right. I need my passage, goddammit. Feel better.
[41:21] Speaker 5: Feel better.
[41:22] Speaker 1: I need my passage, man. I had to think about it, huh?
[41:29] Speaker 7: Yeah, but even with a passer, passes can.
[41:32] Speaker 4: Be all over the place.
[41:33] Speaker 5: I don't give a fuck about that.
[41:34] Speaker 7: So you still got to reach up and get it
[41:35] Speaker 7: or bend down here.
[41:36] Speaker 5: And get it?
[41:37] Speaker 1: I got an excuse.
[41:38] Speaker 5: I believe you're referring to the first ever Gills.
[41:41] Speaker 2: Arena shootout presented by Underdog. You scored a first-round score
[41:45] Speaker 2: of 12. They were calling you Agent 12. They were
[41:47] Speaker 2: also calling you Gilbrick. I think, Shod, you made a T-shirt.
[41:50] Speaker 3: It was the shit.
[41:52] Speaker 5: It was the right.
[41:53] Speaker 3: It wasn't angle.
[41:54] Speaker 5: And then if I have a bad passer, it's his fault.
[41:56] Speaker 1: That's fair. You know? I got outs here.
[41:59] Speaker 5: You 40.
[41:59] Speaker 1: So I changed my mind.
[42:00] Speaker 5: I'm with Caitlyn on this one.
[42:02] Speaker 6: You know, if it ain't the way you like it,
[42:04] Speaker 6: it ain't the way you like it.
[42:05] Speaker 3: That's how I do it.
[42:05] Speaker 4: So you're going to have passers this year?
[42:08] Speaker 1: No. I have a bunch of ball boys.
[42:09] Speaker 3: Y'all better be hustling, God damn it.
[42:12] Speaker 1: Don't fuck my rhythm up.
[42:14] Speaker 2: So let's talk about something that we addressed yesterday on
[42:16] Speaker 2: the show. So Tuesday, news broke that the Kings and
[42:19] Speaker 2: De'Aaron Fox could be looking to part ways before the
[42:21] Speaker 2: trade deadline. Kenya, you did not care. You wanted the
[42:24] Speaker 2: news to happen already. We don't need to speculate, sinewate,
[42:27] Speaker 2: or any of those other things. But according to reports
[42:29] Speaker 2: from Fox's agent, Rich Paul advised the Kings it would
[42:33] Speaker 2: be wise.
[42:33] Speaker 1: To move the former All-Star guard sooner rather than later.
[42:38] Speaker 5: I mean, yeah, y'all can keep him if you want, but...
[42:42] Speaker 5: He only got one year left on his deal.
[42:44] Speaker 2: So Fox, like I said, one year remaining on his deal,
[42:46] Speaker 2: could become an unrestricted free agent summer of 2026. This
[42:50] Speaker 2: news comes on the heels of Paul informing the Kings
[42:52] Speaker 2: that Fox would not sign an.
[42:53] Speaker 5: Extension with the team earlier this season.
[42:55] Speaker 2: So according to several reports, the era Fox's preferred destination
[42:59] Speaker 2: is the Spurs, as he looks to pair up with
[43:01] Speaker 2: rising superstar Victor Wiminyama, also known as Wamba Wamba. The
[43:05] Speaker 2: Spurs have some pieces, a bunch of draft assets to
[43:08] Speaker 2: offer the Kings, up to nine first-round picks through the
[43:11] Speaker 2: 2031 draft. And at 20 and 23, this season are
[43:16] Speaker 2: 12th in the West, but they're only four and a
[43:18] Speaker 2: half games behind the Clippers for the sixth spot, two
[43:20] Speaker 2: and a half games behind the.
[43:21] Speaker 1: Kings for the final playing spot. Can I see you
[43:24] Speaker 1: looking at me?
[43:25] Speaker 5: Okay.
[43:25] Speaker 2: I was going to tuck my chain in just in
[43:27] Speaker 2: case preemptive. If you were the Spurs, would you make
[43:30] Speaker 2: a move for De'Aaron Fox to pair with Wimby?
[43:36] Speaker 5: Who we got to give up?
[43:38] Speaker 1: Glad you asked. I mean.
[43:40] Speaker 2: A lot of routes you can go. CP3 on a
[43:42] Speaker 2: one-year deal. He's making about $ 10 million this year. Devin Vassell,
[43:46] Speaker 2: I think, is in, what, the $ 27, $ 28 million range.
[43:49] Speaker 2: You package those two together.
[43:52] Speaker 5: No, you're not going to.
[43:54] Speaker 1: And throw some picks in there.
[43:55] Speaker 3: CP, you can stay.
[43:56] Speaker 1: So what is Castle? Is he a point or is
[43:58] Speaker 1: he a two? What is hybrid? I'm going Castle, Vassell,
[44:03] Speaker 1: and Johnson. Golden Johnson?
[44:07] Speaker 3: All three of them.
[44:08] Speaker 1: Throw in about three, four picks if you want. They
[44:11] Speaker 1: got a bunch of picks.
[44:12] Speaker 4: Are you trading for Fox?
[44:14] Speaker 1: If I'm the Kings, we need.
[44:17] Speaker 5: Because it's like they're giving up on him, so it's
[44:20] Speaker 5: like you're going to have to give something up if
[44:22] Speaker 5: you disperse to get him. You can't just... CP ain't it.
[44:27] Speaker 5: If I'm the Kings, I'm not accepting that. No, it's
[44:30] Speaker 5: just me like, yo, see, no. I need Castle and
[44:33] Speaker 5: Vasil for sure. Oh, you need Castle and Vassell. Castle
[44:37] Speaker 5: and Vassell, for sure. For De'Aaron Fox? Is he All-NBA?
[44:42] Speaker 2: He was All-NBA 2023 Cuts Player of the Year 2023.
[44:44] Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
[44:45] Speaker 1: All-Star 2023. We need that.
[44:47] Speaker 3: Yeah, we're not giving him up for nothing more than
[44:49] Speaker 3: them two right there.
[44:52] Speaker 4: Mm-hmm.
[44:54] Speaker 1: So, Sean said, the Spurs have already gotten dozens of
[44:56] Speaker 1: calls since news broke.
[44:58] Speaker 5: Oh.
[45:04] Speaker 3: They've been winning, right?
[45:06] Speaker 5: Who? Spurs.
[45:08] Speaker 1: The Sacramento Kings.
[45:09] Speaker 2: The Kings are 10-4 under Doug Christie, who replaced Mike Brown,
[45:12] Speaker 2: currently 10th in the Western Conference.
[45:15] Speaker 5: Trying to get rid of De'Aaron Fox before the break.
[45:20] Speaker 1: So they've been winning, and he doesn't want to be there?
[45:26] Speaker 1: As of late, Gil.
[45:27] Speaker 5: The Kings got the calls.
[45:29] Speaker 1: Okay.
[45:29] Speaker 2: Kings got the calls for De'Aaron Fox.
[45:39] Speaker 6: So most likely it's the what? Assistant coach comes in, change, right?
[45:48] Speaker 6: Change how we're going to move this ship a little bit, right?
[45:51] Speaker 1: He's number one. We're going to play through another source
[45:56] Speaker 1: right now.
[45:58] Speaker 3: Get off the ball, De'Aaron. Get off the ball.
[46:02] Speaker 6: Because there's no way you get rid of Mike Brown,
[46:05] Speaker 6: y'all winning, and you're.
[46:07] Speaker 1: Not happy about it, right?
[46:08] Speaker 6: It just lets you know that the Christie's wants to
[46:11] Speaker 6: play through probably the ideal.
[46:13] Speaker 1: Sabonis. Sabonis.
[46:15] Speaker 5: Right.
[46:15] Speaker 6: He's he's realizing Sabonis is kind of like a yoke.
[46:18] Speaker 3: Not kind of Chris Webber type.
[46:20] Speaker 5: Fuck.
[46:20] Speaker 3: Not kind of.
[46:21] Speaker 1: Yeah.
[46:22] Speaker 3: More athletic.
[46:23] Speaker 5: Yeah.
[46:23] Speaker 1: More athletic. But, you know, that's that style where he's
[46:26] Speaker 1: a left handed.
[46:27] Speaker 6: He has a team.
[46:27] Speaker 3: He can he can.
[46:28] Speaker 6: Create a lot of offense for everybody else. So he
[46:31] Speaker 6: wants to probably play through him. And, you know, Darren
[46:34] Speaker 6: is not getting the. The shot looks he's used to
[46:39] Speaker 6: and he probably just I need to move on. So
[46:43] Speaker 6: Fox has one year remaining on his contract. Like I
[46:45] Speaker 6: pointed out, $ 37. 1 million he would make in 25-26. Bypassed
[46:50] Speaker 6: a three-year $ 165 million max extension from the Kings before
[46:53] Speaker 6: this season.
[46:54] Speaker 1: Will be eligible for a.
[46:55] Speaker 2: Four-year $ 229 million extension next summer. But if he's selected
[46:59] Speaker 2: to an All-NBA team this year, be eligible for a
[47:02] Speaker 2: five-year $ 345 million super max.
[47:06] Speaker 3: What is the average?
[47:07] Speaker 1: I don't know if you can look it up. No, no,
[47:09] Speaker 1: the last 15 games.
[47:11] Speaker 5: I'm looking at the last. Doug, Doug, Chrissy took.
[47:14] Speaker 1: Up the last 14 games.
[47:16] Speaker 3: So 33, 35, 23. He missed three games.
[47:19] Speaker 2: So he's averaging 24, 6, and 5 rebounds in the
[47:22] Speaker 2: last 15 games.
[47:23] Speaker 3: His last six games?
[47:25] Speaker 5: His last six games.
[47:26] Speaker 1: Oh, his last six games, you said?
[47:27] Speaker 5: His last six games are nasty except for the last game.
[47:30] Speaker 1: So what did he average the last... 14 games you
[47:32] Speaker 1: said just last? So last 15 games, 24 points, six assists,
[47:35] Speaker 1: five rebounds.
[47:36] Speaker 3: So he down a point. But he started off with 20, 36.
[47:38] Speaker 5: I mean, 33. But like Gil said, last six games,
[47:39] Speaker 5: 18.7 assists. 18.
[47:40] Speaker 1: Three rebounds.
[47:40] Speaker 2: 19, 12, 14, 17, 14.
[47:48] Speaker 5: It started after he came back, too, after he came
[47:50] Speaker 5: back from the injury.
[47:51] Speaker 3: He came back from the injury.
[47:52] Speaker 5: That's when he went down.
[47:54] Speaker 3: They changed their format.
[47:55] Speaker 2: So, yeah, did beat the Kings during that stretch with
[47:57] Speaker 2: Doug Christie when they won seven straight. Without De'Aaron Fox,
[48:00] Speaker 2: we'd have missed three games in that window. For the season,
[48:02] Speaker 2: he's averaged a 25-6 assist, five rebounds in the 43
[48:06] Speaker 2: games that he's played.
[48:07] Speaker 5: So... Hmm. Hmm.
[48:13] Speaker 3: I mean, you know, I can see them playing through Sabonis.
[48:17] Speaker 5: Now they just looking for an effective point guard. Now
[48:21] Speaker 5: they don't want no dynamic point guard that's going to
[48:25] Speaker 5: demand the ball.
[48:26] Speaker 3: They want to get off of it.
[48:27] Speaker 4: Yeah, but if he doesn't want to be there.
[48:29] Speaker 7: You probably want to move him.
[48:32] Speaker 5: Who's his agent? I don't know.
[48:34] Speaker 1: Who's called Clutch Sports? I don't know.
[48:36] Speaker 5: Who?
[48:36] Speaker 3: So his agent is telling him, you want to be
[48:39] Speaker 3: a star? Trust me. He just signed with Curry Brand, right?
[48:47] Speaker 1: He's a member of the Under Armour?
[48:49] Speaker 3: Did he just change his agent? Wasn't he with somebody
[48:51] Speaker 3: else before Rich?
[48:52] Speaker 1: Mm-hmm.
[48:52] Speaker 3: So he just changed, right? So, yeah, this is.
[48:55] Speaker 5: Let's refurbish this. We're going to redecorate this. All right,
[49:01] Speaker 5: first things first. Let's get the fuck up out of here.
[49:03] Speaker 4: Out of Sacramento.
[49:04] Speaker 1: Let's get the fuck up out of here.
[49:05] Speaker 6: Yeah, I think, you know, if I'm Fox, I'm going
[49:09] Speaker 6: to really look at last year. Because last year, Curry
[49:14] Speaker 6: made All-NBA... but my team was rated higher and my
[49:18] Speaker 6: numbers was better. right so no matter how you wanted
[49:21] Speaker 6: to play it I will be over Curry of you
[49:26] Speaker 6: know for all NBA so.
[49:27] Speaker 1: The fact that I didn't win it or get on
[49:29] Speaker 1: the team it kind.
[49:31] Speaker 6: Of says they'd rather have instead of having two Sacramento
[49:35] Speaker 6: guys they'd rather have one.
[49:37] Speaker 1: And then you know you get Golden State you know
[49:39] Speaker 1: bigger market so You know, me, I will be start
[49:42] Speaker 1: kicking into, like, business part of it. Like, the shit
[49:49] Speaker 1: I got to.
[49:49] Speaker 5: Do to just compete with this guy.
[49:52] Speaker 3: That's, you know what I mean?
[49:54] Speaker 6: That's, you know, he averages 25.
[49:59] Speaker 1: I got to average 30 just to get the same look.
[50:05] Speaker 5: And that's.
[50:06] Speaker 6: You know, that's the difference between small markets, you know?
[50:09] Speaker 6: Like Westbrook, you got to have a triple-double.
[50:11] Speaker 1: You got to, you know, sit there and have killer
[50:13] Speaker 1: numbers compared to somebody who's sitting in a small market.
[50:16] Speaker 1: I mean, in a bigger market.
[50:18] Speaker 3: I don't blame them.
[50:19] Speaker 1: I mean.
[50:21] Speaker 3: Hey, go get your money, son.
[50:23] Speaker 1: Yeah.
[50:26] Speaker 2: The game is the game, as they say. We will
[50:29] Speaker 2: monitor the situation. Trade deadline next Thursday, noon Pacific. Should
[50:34] Speaker 2: be a lot of wheeling and dealing going on. And
[50:36] Speaker 2: we will be here.
[50:37] Speaker 6: Those are the funnest days, man.
[50:41] Speaker 1: Yeah, y'all didn't have trade deadline then, right?
[50:43] Speaker 5: Mm-hmm.
[50:44] Speaker 4: You didn't?
[50:45] Speaker 5: Did people get traded like that?
[50:48] Speaker 4: Trade didn't really happen like that in the W.
[50:49] Speaker 1: NBA.
[50:52] Speaker 3: Especially, you know, you're like the max player.
[50:54] Speaker 5: Your shit's secured. You just sit back, just.
[50:58] Speaker 1: Watch your motherfuckers on the phone.
[51:00] Speaker 5: So what happened?
[51:02] Speaker 6: Huh?
[51:03] Speaker 1: What teams?
[51:04] Speaker 3: So they ain't fucking with me? And you be sitting
[51:06] Speaker 3: there like, I told you you should have shut the
[51:08] Speaker 3: fuck up yesterday. Your ass is gone.
[51:11] Speaker 6: You be sitting there just motherfucking sweating.
[51:14] Speaker 5: For no reason.
[51:17] Speaker 3: Nobody would hear that.
[51:18] Speaker 1: I was waiting on that motherfucker a lot. In Denver,
[51:21] Speaker 1: I was waiting on that day. I was waiting on
[51:29] Speaker 1: that goddamn day a whole lot in Denver, boy.
[51:31] Speaker 5: Me the fuck on out of here. Please.
[51:33] Speaker 3: Disappointed a whole lot.
[51:35] Speaker 1: For yourself? Absolutely, for me. You looking around that locker
[51:38] Speaker 1: room like... Get me the fuck out of here, please.
[51:42] Speaker 1: For me, get me the fuck out of here before
[51:44] Speaker 1: I end up in motherfucking prison.
[51:48] Speaker 6: I know that shit's stressful, but it was funny on us.
[51:50] Speaker 1: When you know you ain't getting traded, that shit's funnier
[51:53] Speaker 1: than the motherfucker just watching people just... It was a
[51:56] Speaker 1: couple times. It almost happened a couple times.
[51:59] Speaker 5: Oh, you did? Man.
[52:01] Speaker 2: So how much is your agent talking to you? How
[52:03] Speaker 2: much are you aware of what's going on? I'm talking
[52:05] Speaker 2: to my agent. I ain't talking to T.
[52:06] Speaker 1: But, I mean, are you getting excited, like, ooh, thinking
[52:08] Speaker 1: about the possibilities, or are you just kind.
[52:09] Speaker 3: Of even-keeled waiting?
[52:10] Speaker 1: No, I'm just even-keeled waiting on this shit to happen.
[52:11] Speaker 1: When it don't, I got to go look at this
[52:14] Speaker 1: motherfucker some more.
[52:16] Speaker 5: It's easy when you.
[52:17] Speaker 6: Want to get out of there, but if you just...
[52:19] Speaker 6: Innocent bystander. You've been doing your job. They throw you inside. Yeah,
[52:24] Speaker 6: you know, we're thinking about trading Gilbert.
[52:25] Speaker 5: Like, wait, what? The fuck are you talking about? What'd
[52:29] Speaker 5: I do?
[52:29] Speaker 1: Now you got to pack up and leave.
[52:33] Speaker 3: Pack your shit up.
[52:34] Speaker 1: Go somewhere else.
[52:35] Speaker 4: That's the one that's got to be the worst.
[52:36] Speaker 5: Your whole world changed. Huh?
[52:37] Speaker 4: I said, that has to be the worst.
[52:40] Speaker 7: When you're not expecting it, right? Like, you hear other
[52:44] Speaker 7: people possibly getting traded. And the next thing you know,
[52:47] Speaker 7: your agent's calling you saying.
[52:50] Speaker 6: Sometimes you find out on the ticker.
[52:53] Speaker 10: TV, yeah.
[52:54] Speaker 1: Because your agent didn't know. They just, at the last minute, oh,
[52:57] Speaker 1: you want who?
[52:58] Speaker 5: Fuck it.
[52:58] Speaker 1: All right, bet.
[52:59] Speaker 5: Gone.
[53:01] Speaker 1: Your ass done landed in a whole new city. You
[53:03] Speaker 1: in layup line. Like, think about it.
[53:04] Speaker 6: We done seen people in layup line, motherfucker, in the
[53:07] Speaker 6: middle of the layup.
[53:08] Speaker 1: Come here. Got to stop like the pause button.
[53:11] Speaker 5: So tell me.
[53:13] Speaker 4: If this is bad.
[53:13] Speaker 5: Oh, my gosh.
[53:14] Speaker 1: You go 14 games, DNP.
[53:21] Speaker 5: No one tells you why you're not playing. Not getting
[53:25] Speaker 5: interviewed by nobody. AJ won't even give you a fucking
[53:29] Speaker 5: reason why. Nothing happening, right? You ask for a trade.
[53:33] Speaker 1: They say, okay.
[53:37] Speaker 5: Go to 21 games, DNP. Then they ship you out
[53:41] Speaker 5: to the worst team in the league.
[53:44] Speaker 3: A great city, though.
[53:46] Speaker 5: And they tell that worst team in the league, hey,
[53:49] Speaker 5: He's a fucking asshole. So when you get there, the
[53:53] Speaker 5: first thing they do is they anticipate you're going to
[53:55] Speaker 5: do some asshole shit.
[53:56] Speaker 3: And what'd you do, Jimmy Butler? I was the first
[54:00] Speaker 3: one there.
[54:00] Speaker 1: Oh, I was going to say, you did some asshole shit.
[54:04] Speaker 5: And I had an enemy on the team. As soon
[54:06] Speaker 5: as I got there, I went up and I squashed
[54:08] Speaker 5: the beef. Because it's a fresh start. But guess what
[54:11] Speaker 5: happened anyway? You get fucked over anyway. Some scenarios are
[54:18] Speaker 5: just a scenario, but when people start hearing a scenario.
[54:20] Speaker 3: They be like, hey, man, that happen?
[54:23] Speaker 5: That happen?
[54:24] Speaker 3: Was that your... Contract year? Contract year? Crazy as fuck.
[54:30] Speaker 5: So it ain't nothing you can do. It's like DMP,
[54:32] Speaker 5: coach's decision. No player is really questioning it. Because we
[54:37] Speaker 5: all looking at the stat sheet, like who hooping, who playing.
[54:39] Speaker 5: Why Nate Robinson didn't play tonight? He was averaging 20.
[54:43] Speaker 5: Coach's decision. Kenyon on the bench, coach's decision. Oh, George
[54:48] Speaker 5: over there fucking with him.
[54:50] Speaker 6: By the trade, I'm going to get.
[54:52] Speaker 3: To the worst because I asked for the trade.
[54:55] Speaker 5: Oh, don't you dare. Don't you dare.
[54:57] Speaker 1: Don't you dare.
[54:58] Speaker 5: Oh, you want to go somewhere? All right, we got you.
[55:01] Speaker 2: Does that city currently have seven Chili's in the metropolitan area?
[55:05] Speaker 5: How many? Yes.
[55:06] Speaker 1: Okay.
[55:06] Speaker 3: Did it have seven chilies then? No, it was two.
[55:09] Speaker 5: It was two.
[55:10] Speaker 1: It was two.
[55:10] Speaker 2: It was two. It had five more. People got to
[55:14] Speaker 2: get their chilies, but let's keep this thing moving. Lakers
[55:16] Speaker 2: pulled up to Philly Tuesday night in the midst of
[55:18] Speaker 2: a four-game winning streak, third game in their sixth game
[55:22] Speaker 2: Grammy road trip. Sixers were without Embiid and Paul George,
[55:25] Speaker 2: but Tyrese Maxey said, F the big three, it's just
[55:29] Speaker 2: big me. Things took a turn for the worse for
[55:32] Speaker 2: the purple and gold early in the game. After Anthony
[55:36] Speaker 2: Davis left the game in the first quarter with an
[55:38] Speaker 2: abdominal strain, did not return.
[55:41] Speaker 1: Let's take a look right here. Stomach not looking right.
[55:47] Speaker 1: We'll have more on that in just a moment.
[55:50] Speaker 2: So LeBron took back the keys as the Lakers' number
[55:52] Speaker 2: one option, finished the game with 31 points on 10
[55:54] Speaker 2: of 16 shooting, along with eight rebounds, nine assists, and
[55:57] Speaker 2: a season-high eight turnovers. Dalton Kinnick came off the bench,
[56:02] Speaker 2: dropped 24 points. He was 5-8 from three. Austin Reed
[56:05] Speaker 2: and Rui Hachimura both had 13 points. Ronnie also saw
[56:07] Speaker 2: some action in the game, making a rare appearance in
[56:10] Speaker 2: the first quarter, playing a career-high 15 minutes. It was
[56:12] Speaker 2: 0 for 5 from the field, but did have three
[56:14] Speaker 2: rebounds and assists in one block. Tyrese Maxey delivered one
[56:17] Speaker 2: of his best games of the season, leading the Sixers
[56:20] Speaker 2: with 43 points. He was 15 for 26 from the field,
[56:23] Speaker 2: 9 for 9 from the line. Kelly Oubre added 20 points,
[56:26] Speaker 2: 8 rebounds, and 5 dimes. Darshan Yabusele had 14 points,
[56:30] Speaker 2: 5 rebounds, and 4 steals. And Ricky Council came off
[56:34] Speaker 2: the bench at 16 points and 7 rebounds. Sixers have
[56:37] Speaker 2: won 3 straight games but are 3-7 in their last
[56:39] Speaker 2: 10 games.
[56:40] Speaker 1: So back to AD.
[56:41] Speaker 2: Still unclear just how much time AD will miss. But
[56:44] Speaker 2: according to Shams, AD will be re-evaluated in a week
[56:47] Speaker 2: but could miss some extended time recovering from the injury.
[56:50] Speaker 2: So depending on the severity of the strain, the typical
[56:52] Speaker 2: recovery range could be anywhere from 1.
[56:54] Speaker 1: To 6 weeks. I am not a doctor.
[56:57] Speaker 2: My best guess is we will see him after the
[56:58] Speaker 2: All-Star break. But after the game, LeBron had this to
[57:02] Speaker 2: say about the Lakers losing their number one option.
[57:06] Speaker 9: I mean, when our best player goes out, it's always challenging,
[57:09] Speaker 9: especially in the game. If he's out from the beginning
[57:13] Speaker 9: and we have a game plan set, we know what
[57:15] Speaker 9: to expect. We know what our lineup is going to be.
[57:17] Speaker 9: But when AD goes down or any one of our
[57:19] Speaker 9: guys go down throughout the course of a game, it's
[57:21] Speaker 9: just tough. I didn't even realize until the second quarter
[57:24] Speaker 9: when he didn't come back in his regular minutes and
[57:26] Speaker 9: I looked over the bench, he wasn't over there.
[57:28] Speaker 3: So I found him at halftime. But level of concern,
[57:30] Speaker 3: I think he'll be fine.
[57:33] Speaker 1: So, Bron thinks he'll be fine.
[57:35] Speaker 2: AD's missed just three of the Lakers' 45 games this season,
[57:39] Speaker 2: played a career-high 76 games last season, but given AD's
[57:43] Speaker 2: past injury issues, we'll start with Gil, our resident Lakers fan,
[57:46] Speaker 2: rocking the Schick Hearn jersey. I see you over there
[57:49] Speaker 2: in deep thought, pondering how concerned should the Lakers be
[57:52] Speaker 2: about AD's abdominal strain as they look to stay afloat
[57:55] Speaker 2: in a tough Western conference.
[58:01] Speaker 1: We were just showing him love yesterday. I blame the chat.
[58:12] Speaker 4: It's hard for you.
[58:15] Speaker 6: This reminds me of elementary school, man. Your kid come home, man,
[58:21] Speaker 6: with all these weird-ass injuries. Like, how did you get that?
[58:26] Speaker 1: Like....
[58:28] Speaker 6: Like, give me the ankle and knee, right? This motherfucker
[58:34] Speaker 6: be having bicep soreness.
[58:39] Speaker 3: Thigh contusion.
[58:42] Speaker 4: Abdominal strain.
[58:43] Speaker 3: Yeah, abdominal, back of the neck bruising. Like, come on, man.
[58:48] Speaker 6: It's hard to take it serious because it's not ideal
[58:53] Speaker 6: of how we get injured.
[58:55] Speaker 3: Right?
[58:55] Speaker 1: He reached for the ball, boom. Out of there. Boy,
[59:01] Speaker 1: you better start stretching after them workouts, boy.
[59:05] Speaker 3: Them late night workouts, boy.
[59:07] Speaker 1: You better get some yogi in your life.
[59:12] Speaker 3: Poked in the eye with glasses and went under the glass.
[59:14] Speaker 5: Like, I'm just thinking about all the injuries, man.
[59:21] Speaker 1: You got to go.
[59:22] Speaker 5: Not this way.
[59:23] Speaker 3: Not this way.
[59:24] Speaker 1: He said they went this way. At the top, man.
[59:28] Speaker 5: Oh, my God.
[59:29] Speaker 1: That's funny.
[59:30] Speaker 5: Somehow he got hit. He got him on anyway. Since
[59:31] Speaker 5: when did you put him on? We're going to get
[59:33] Speaker 5: you in there, too. That's hilarious. How do you do that?
[59:35] Speaker 8: Yeah.
[59:45] Speaker 5: How you get the marble in your nose?
[59:48] Speaker 1: The big marble, too. Not the small one. The big
[59:51] Speaker 1: one in your nose. You kept going. You knew you couldn't.
[59:55] Speaker 10: Fit it in there.
[59:55] Speaker 5: How'd you get it in there?
[59:58] Speaker 4: My son had a rock in his.
[59:59] Speaker 7: I said the same thing.
[1:00:02] Speaker 4: How did you get a rock in your nose?
[1:00:04] Speaker 7: His friend said, I bet I can put this rock
[1:00:07] Speaker 7: in your nose.
[1:00:08] Speaker 4: He said, I bet you can't. He said, you want
[1:00:10] Speaker 4: me to show you?
[1:00:11] Speaker 1: He said, yeah.
[1:00:13] Speaker 4: School called me and.
[1:00:14] Speaker 5: Said, your son has a rock stuck in his nose.
[1:00:17] Speaker 3: Five minutes later.
[1:00:18] Speaker 5: Five minutes later. Five minutes later.
[1:00:21] Speaker 1: School calls you and tells you what happened. What is
[1:00:24] Speaker 1: your reaction to find out?
[1:00:25] Speaker 7: Well, they said, your son has a rock stuck in
[1:00:27] Speaker 7: his nose. And I said, what?
[1:00:30] Speaker 4: Like, how did that happen? So I was hot.
[1:00:32] Speaker 3: Real boy shit.
[1:00:33] Speaker 4: I'm driving. I go to the school. And the teacher said, Swoops,
[1:00:39] Speaker 4: I am so sorry.
[1:00:40] Speaker 7: So I was like, listen, where the fuck is my kid?
[1:00:44] Speaker 4: They're on the playground. They're playing.
[1:00:46] Speaker 7: So I go outside, and the two of them are
[1:00:48] Speaker 7: standing there laughing.
[1:00:49] Speaker 5: And he still has the rock in his nose. He
[1:00:51] Speaker 5: still got the rock in his nose. He still has
[1:00:53] Speaker 5: the rock in his nose.
[1:00:54] Speaker 1: You did.
[1:00:54] Speaker 5: You did.
[1:00:55] Speaker 7: You did.
[1:00:55] Speaker 4: And I'm mad.
[1:00:56] Speaker 7: I'm hot. And I said, what happened?
[1:01:00] Speaker 6: Oh.
[1:01:01] Speaker 1: Me and Michael.
[1:01:01] Speaker 4: His name was Michael. Me and Michael were playing. He
[1:01:04] Speaker 4: said that he could put.
[1:01:05] Speaker 7: The rock in my nose, and I said, you can't?
[1:01:07] Speaker 7: And he said, you want me to show you?
[1:01:08] Speaker 4: And I said, yeah.
[1:01:11] Speaker 3: Real boy shit, man.
[1:01:11] Speaker 5: And it.
[1:01:12] Speaker 4: Like, it was a big-ass rock.
[1:01:15] Speaker 7: So I'm sitting here talking to my kid, and half
[1:01:18] Speaker 7: of the rock is out.
[1:01:19] Speaker 4: And I'm like, okay.
[1:01:21] Speaker 1: He's unfazed.
[1:01:22] Speaker 5: Unfazed. Unbobbed.
[1:01:23] Speaker 3: Actually happy.
[1:01:24] Speaker 1: I'm so mad. He's happy.
[1:01:24] Speaker 3: He fit it.
[1:01:25] Speaker 5: He fit it. He happy because he won.
[1:01:27] Speaker 1: He won, yeah. I don't know.
[1:01:28] Speaker 5: He lost.
[1:01:28] Speaker 1: Don't take it out.
[1:01:29] Speaker 5: He lost, right? Don't take it out.
[1:01:30] Speaker 1: I got to keep it in here. Oh, my God.
[1:01:32] Speaker 8: Yeah.
[1:01:32] Speaker 5: I got to keep it in here.
[1:01:33] Speaker 3: I got to show my trophy.
[1:01:35] Speaker 5: Yeah.
[1:01:35] Speaker 3: Real boy shit.
[1:01:37] Speaker 4: Real boy shit.
[1:01:37] Speaker 3: Real boy shit.
[1:01:38] Speaker 5: I was like, what?
[1:01:39] Speaker 1: Absolutely. That's what y'all do on the playground.
[1:01:42] Speaker 5: That's why, like, that shit's funny.
[1:01:46] Speaker 4: You're wearing glasses. That's funny. So, yeah, I'm like, oh, yeah,
[1:01:50] Speaker 4: that could happen.
[1:01:50] Speaker 1: I just be like, come on, man.
[1:01:55] Speaker 4: I'm sorry. Why do you think he's hurt all the time?
[1:02:01] Speaker 5: Or injured? It's not even.
[1:02:03] Speaker 6: Are we calling these injuries or just calling these, like, mishaps?
[1:02:07] Speaker 3: Well, y'all just don't want to say what he is.
[1:02:12] Speaker 1: A dominant number one option?
[1:02:15] Speaker 5: Mr. King, get right. Mr. King, get right.
[1:02:19] Speaker 3: Air soft.
[1:02:21] Speaker 5: Soft shell taco mild sauce. Damn, not even hot sauce?
[1:02:26] Speaker 5: Mild sauce.
[1:02:28] Speaker 3: Can I get the mild?
[1:02:29] Speaker 1: That's not one of my tacos, too. I want the mild.
[1:02:33] Speaker 5: Fuck all that hot shit. Fuck all that hot shit.
[1:02:35] Speaker 1: I'm full.
[1:02:36] Speaker 5: I can't handle that, man.
[1:02:38] Speaker 6: I don't think so he was injured in college, right?
[1:02:40] Speaker 1: No.
[1:02:40] Speaker 3: He wasn't that long? He wasn't there long enough.
[1:02:43] Speaker 5: Eight months.
[1:02:44] Speaker 4: He was there a year, a season?
[1:02:46] Speaker 1: Eight months.
[1:02:47] Speaker 5: Nah, I mean, we got to start calling it how
[1:02:49] Speaker 5: we see it.
[1:02:49] Speaker 3: Six of it was basketball.
[1:02:50] Speaker 5: We the real media, man. If we don't start saying
[1:02:52] Speaker 5: what it is, they going to start believing that they
[1:02:54] Speaker 5: really out there doing what they supposed to do. He
[1:02:56] Speaker 5: got to the.
[1:02:56] Speaker 7: NBA almost every season he's injured.
[1:03:00] Speaker 5: He with the stretch band trainers. He doing the stretch
[1:03:03] Speaker 5: band shit. Him, Paolo Banchero, the Wagner, they all got
[1:03:08] Speaker 5: the same little joints, but it's like, what are y'all doing?
[1:03:11] Speaker 1: Wait, what was theirs? Abdominal too, right?
[1:03:13] Speaker 5: Yeah, same one, abdominal. Abductor, whatever it was. Abdominal, abductor,
[1:03:17] Speaker 5: right in the same spot. It's the same shit, man.
[1:03:20] Speaker 5: So what you saying?
[1:03:20] Speaker 3: They just doing the, it's the NBA.
[1:03:23] Speaker 1: More tie ball, more tie ball. They doing too many sit-ups,
[1:03:26] Speaker 1: not enough stretching, not enough back work. Strengthening, strengthening, strength
[1:03:31] Speaker 1: and conditioning.
[1:03:32] Speaker 2: AD played 76 games last year, like I said, career high.
[1:03:34] Speaker 1: No, I'm just saying that.
[1:03:36] Speaker 2: We're taking off that street clothes moniker.
[1:03:39] Speaker 6: When you sit there and do this. Like, he is
[1:03:42] Speaker 6: someone that needs yoga. Like, you literally need yoga.
[1:03:45] Speaker 1: I don't know what his pain threshold is. Like, that's
[1:03:50] Speaker 1: what I question.
[1:03:51] Speaker 5: Kenny Squat, 225.
[1:03:54] Speaker 1: Does he have pain through his shoulders? Like, that's what
[1:03:57] Speaker 1: I question. What is he willing to play through? Like,
[1:04:00] Speaker 1: that's what I question. Have you guys ever had an
[1:04:03] Speaker 1: abdominal strain?
[1:04:05] Speaker 5: No.
[1:04:05] Speaker 2: That seems like a tough one. You can't really do
[1:04:07] Speaker 2: nothing while you recover.
[1:04:10] Speaker 1: No, because if you don't, it can move down.
[1:04:13] Speaker 3: Yeah, it's like a groin.
[1:04:14] Speaker 1: And turn into a groin or a squirturnia.
[1:04:16] Speaker 5: I heard that.
[1:04:17] Speaker 3: I had a spurt.
[1:04:18] Speaker 1: Yeah, you had to be careful. He dealt with groin
[1:04:20] Speaker 1: issues in the past.
[1:04:21] Speaker 3: No, I stretched shit out.
[1:04:22] Speaker 5: My core was always together. Ain't nothing a little proxen
[1:04:29] Speaker 5: won't fix.
[1:04:30] Speaker 1: But it's coming from just doing a lot of crunches
[1:04:33] Speaker 1: and not actually letting them stretch out.
[1:04:37] Speaker 2: So, good, how concerned are you as a Lakers fan?
[1:04:38] Speaker 2: We were on the up and up, won four straight games.
[1:04:42] Speaker 2: Came against a depleted Sixers squad. Hoping to keep that?
[1:04:46] Speaker 5: Not even going to lie.
[1:04:48] Speaker 3: Can you, please?
[1:04:50] Speaker 4: I got you.
[1:04:53] Speaker 5: Hold on. Let me see. Make sure that clutch check
[1:04:55] Speaker 5: is clear.
[1:04:55] Speaker 3: Yeah, so we ain't worried about none of this, baby.
[1:04:57] Speaker 5: You know what I mean? We're not worried about this.
[1:05:00] Speaker 1: We're going to stay five.
[1:05:01] Speaker 3: Hold up the ship, you know? I hope so. LeBron
[1:05:05] Speaker 3: James and Bronny James.
[1:05:07] Speaker 5: Yeah, we good.
[1:05:07] Speaker 4: Don't do that. Don't do that.
[1:05:09] Speaker 5: Stop that.
[1:05:10] Speaker 4: Yeah, I said don't do that.
[1:05:11] Speaker 5: We're not going to do that. I just told you
[1:05:13] Speaker 5: the clutch here. The check cleared.
[1:05:15] Speaker 1: I got it. First check.
[1:05:16] Speaker 4: Don't do that, though.
[1:05:17] Speaker 1: The inaugural class check? Can I ask a question?
[1:05:20] Speaker 5: No, we're not going to do that. We're clear.
[1:05:22] Speaker 1: It depends on what the question is.
[1:05:24] Speaker 5: Okay.
[1:05:26] Speaker 3: I'm like a wife.
[1:05:27] Speaker 1: And you cheating on me, but you just gave me
[1:05:28] Speaker 1: a black card. He's a good husband.
[1:05:30] Speaker 5: I'm very happy here.
[1:05:36] Speaker 3: Uh-oh. 43 points, right? Can I say something positive on there, please?
[1:05:40] Speaker 3: 43 points, right?
[1:05:41] Speaker 5: Who? Who? Tyrese Maxey.
[1:05:43] Speaker 3: The Tyrese Maxey guy.
[1:05:45] Speaker 5: Yeah. All right.
[1:05:46] Speaker 1: Very good player.
[1:05:47] Speaker 3: Tyrese Maxey.
[1:05:49] Speaker 4: Are you doing a play?
[1:05:52] Speaker 3: Tyrese Maxey, right? 43 points.
[1:05:54] Speaker 5: And there is nobody else for him to defer to.
[1:05:57] Speaker 5: How does he get 43 points?
[1:06:00] Speaker 4: Because he a bad boy.
[1:06:02] Speaker 3: Fast. Okay, cool.
[1:06:04] Speaker 5: So if he's coming across the half court line, it's
[1:06:07] Speaker 5: 14 seconds left on the shot clock.
[1:06:10] Speaker 3: Are you going to be.
[1:06:12] Speaker 5: Hugged up to shooters on the wing and in the corners? Well,
[1:06:16] Speaker 5: would you all be back in the paint trying to
[1:06:18] Speaker 5: stop the drive?
[1:06:19] Speaker 7: Well, seeing how he's the one that's really hurting us,
[1:06:22] Speaker 7: I'm probably going to try and stop him.
[1:06:25] Speaker 1: Uh-oh.
[1:06:27] Speaker 4: I want to see what you're drawing up, though.
[1:06:32] Speaker 1: That's not a play I've ever seen before. That looks
[1:06:36] Speaker 1: like a lot of action on the court.
[1:06:38] Speaker 5: He's 43 points with LeBron and AD. And then AD
[1:06:41] Speaker 5: go down and he's like, we've got to figure this out.
[1:06:43] Speaker 5: What are we trying to figure out? Look.
[1:06:44] Speaker 3: Make him pass the ball. Make him pass the ball.
[1:06:47] Speaker 5: All right, you see LeBron's stat line they had up there?
[1:06:50] Speaker 5: Let's do right. Oh, my bad.
[1:06:52] Speaker 4: Who were you talking about?
[1:06:54] Speaker 3: Oh, were those letters?
[1:06:55] Speaker 1: I thought you were just diagramming action.
[1:06:57] Speaker 3: Those are people.
[1:06:57] Speaker 1: Okay, I thought it was an elaborate. LeBron, LeBron, LeBron, LeBron, LeBron.
[1:07:01] Speaker 5: He had 31-89, right? But they forgot the eight turnovers.
[1:07:04] Speaker 5: It was mentioned in the ring.
[1:07:05] Speaker 1: Right. Season high.
[1:07:07] Speaker 5: So you got the eight turnovers. And you're like, for J.J.,
[1:07:11] Speaker 5: you know, he tried out Bronny. Tried to use Bronny
[1:07:14] Speaker 5: as an excuse of why we didn't have no energy tonight.
[1:07:17] Speaker 5: Throw Bronny in there and try to give us some
[1:07:19] Speaker 5: energy instead of just holding guys accountable for showing up
[1:07:24] Speaker 5: to work.
[1:07:25] Speaker 1: So we're going to talk about Bronny in a second.
[1:07:28] Speaker 1: But first, just back to the loss of A.D.
[1:07:29] Speaker 2: So there have been previous reports that Lakers could try
[1:07:31] Speaker 2: to make a move before the deadline to bring in
[1:07:33] Speaker 2: a five to help A.D. spend more time in his
[1:07:36] Speaker 2: preferred position, which is the four spot, with others saying
[1:07:40] Speaker 2: the team may not make a big swing by the
[1:07:42] Speaker 2: trade deadline. Does the AD injury give the Lakers extra
[1:07:45] Speaker 2: motivation to strengthen the roster before the trade deadline or
[1:07:48] Speaker 2: an excuse to say, hey, we was going to do it?
[1:07:51] Speaker 1: What do you mean? I mean, a trade or are
[1:07:53] Speaker 1: you just going to sign somebody in free agency? What
[1:07:56] Speaker 1: is it? We can't sign somebody in free agency. What
[1:07:57] Speaker 1: are you going to do?
[1:07:59] Speaker 6: You're going to make a trade while AD's out?
[1:08:03] Speaker 5: Then what the fuck am I left with?
[1:08:06] Speaker 3: Unless you trade for AD.
[1:08:08] Speaker 6: What I'm saying is that 80s out, let's say I
[1:08:10] Speaker 6: make a trade out of Rui and what's the name
[1:08:12] Speaker 6: for who?
[1:08:14] Speaker 1: That's going to make up that 80s out.
[1:08:16] Speaker 6: And especially if.
[1:08:18] Speaker 4: You're talking about bringing in a big man. Who is that?
[1:08:21] Speaker 1: Different reports.
[1:08:22] Speaker 2: Miles Turner's been a name that's been buzzing lately. But
[1:08:24] Speaker 2: you got Vucevic. So what do I got to trade
[1:08:26] Speaker 2: for Miles Turner?
[1:08:28] Speaker 1: Hopefully a... So whatever I got to trade for Miles Turner,
[1:08:31] Speaker 1: I'm just getting Miles Turner and LeBron.
[1:08:34] Speaker 3: And then what else? You have Austin Reeves as well,
[1:08:36] Speaker 3: the best third option.
[1:08:37] Speaker 5: In the NBA.
[1:08:37] Speaker 1: Unless he gets put into that trade.
[1:08:38] Speaker 2: That is not a realistic move to be made.
[1:08:42] Speaker 5: Dalton Connect did have 24 last year. Dalton had 24
[1:08:44] Speaker 5: off the bench. And Austin had what?
[1:08:47] Speaker 1: 13. Okay. Facilitating.
[1:08:50] Speaker 5: Sounds like a better option than me. We can lean.
[1:08:53] Speaker 1: On him and daddy.
[1:08:55] Speaker 3: Squeeze it.
[1:08:57] Speaker 2: Too many billboards in Los Angeles to squeeze a my daddy.
[1:09:00] Speaker 3: Squeeze it.
[1:09:02] Speaker 5: Work on it. We don't need it over here, though.
[1:09:08] Speaker 1: You can slide, brother.
[1:09:14] Speaker 2: Before you speak, you did listen to GNX by Kendrick Lamar.
[1:09:18] Speaker 2: You have been embracing it. But you have been embraced
[1:09:20] Speaker 2: as an official Los Angelino. Angelino, if you will. I
[1:09:23] Speaker 2: won't go that far, Josiah. Can't take it back. Your
[1:09:27] Speaker 2: blue bandana on the way. To match your blue chucks,
[1:09:31] Speaker 2: which you already had. That I do. How are you
[1:09:38] Speaker 2: feeling about the Lakers prospects if AD has to miss
[1:09:41] Speaker 2: extended time?
[1:09:44] Speaker 1: Would you make a trade if you were the Lakers?
[1:09:49] Speaker 1: I don't trust y'all front office to do shit, to
[1:09:51] Speaker 1: be honest.
[1:09:53] Speaker 5: Period.
[1:09:53] Speaker 3: I don't trust the front office over there, bro.
[1:09:55] Speaker 1: Y'all done had multiple off-seasons to do something. Y'all ain't
[1:09:58] Speaker 1: did shit with it. Y'all wasting LeBron's last few years
[1:10:03] Speaker 1: as a front office.
[1:10:03] Speaker 4: Best facts.
[1:10:05] Speaker 1: So I don't trust the front office to be nothing
[1:10:07] Speaker 1: but who they are to this point. You want to
[1:10:09] Speaker 1: do something, prove it. Like I said, don't report to
[1:10:12] Speaker 1: me the shit. Show me.
[1:10:13] Speaker 3: Okay, who's the front office, though? Is it Jenny or
[1:10:16] Speaker 3: is it Rob? Who is it?
[1:10:17] Speaker 1: They all include.
[1:10:18] Speaker 5: It's all inclusive.
[1:10:20] Speaker 3: You know who it is.
[1:10:22] Speaker 6: You know who it is. I just had to think
[1:10:25] Speaker 6: about it. I can see why.
[1:10:28] Speaker 5: I can see why.
[1:10:30] Speaker 3: We got to dive into this. Who's the general manager?
[1:10:36] Speaker 3: Rob Pulley. Who is his client? Kobe Bryant.
[1:10:42] Speaker 1: Mm-hmm.
[1:10:42] Speaker 6: That's like having Rashad in the office.
[1:10:44] Speaker 5: Mm-hmm.
[1:10:45] Speaker 1: Ain't no damn way he gonna have LeBron win an
[1:10:47] Speaker 1: extra championship.
[1:10:48] Speaker 3: Got a goddamn chance.
[1:10:51] Speaker 5: You want KD? Cool.
[1:10:53] Speaker 3: I got your bobo. What you think Kobe last take was?
[1:10:56] Speaker 5: Don't you let that motherfucker win.
[1:11:01] Speaker 3: Bed not, Rob. I'm on your ass every morning.
[1:11:05] Speaker 6: It's like every move he make in the summer, it's like, hey,
[1:11:08] Speaker 6: God damn it, you need to retire.
[1:11:09] Speaker 5: I ain't letting you get the number five.
[1:11:12] Speaker 3: Won't get the five on my watch.
[1:11:13] Speaker 5: Not on my watch.
[1:11:17] Speaker 1: Not on this time.
[1:11:18] Speaker 5: Not today.
[1:11:19] Speaker 3: Yeah, it is the front office, man.
[1:11:20] Speaker 5: What is his expertise?
[1:11:21] Speaker 1: None.
[1:11:24] Speaker 3: No, he's just an agent.
[1:11:26] Speaker 5: He had access to the player.
[1:11:27] Speaker 1: You know what?
[1:11:27] Speaker 5: The player.
[1:11:28] Speaker 1: Yeah, player.
[1:11:29] Speaker 3: He had access to the player.
[1:11:30] Speaker 5: Player.
[1:11:31] Speaker 1: When the play happened, when he got hired, I'm pretty
[1:11:34] Speaker 1: sure 99.9% of us was like, Kobe's.
[1:11:39] Speaker 5: He was supposed to bring Kobe in. I think that
[1:11:42] Speaker 5: was the ultimate plan. And Kobe didn't want to go in.
[1:11:45] Speaker 5: He didn't want it. Because Magic stepped down.
[1:11:47] Speaker 6: I know what I'm saying is I think that was
[1:11:51] Speaker 6: the ultimate plan.
[1:11:53] Speaker 3: Palenka and then Gold finally takes over. Yep, that was.
[1:11:56] Speaker 6: And then he's like the head honcho over there because
[1:11:59] Speaker 6: there's no way you're an agent and you've been calculating
[1:12:04] Speaker 6: numbers all year. Now you're smart enough to know what
[1:12:06] Speaker 6: actual talent is.
[1:12:11] Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, you have a numbers cruncher and then
[1:12:15] Speaker 1: you have someone who looks at talent. That's two different people.
[1:12:18] Speaker 5: He went and got Gabe Vincent and Kendrick 9.
[1:12:21] Speaker 2: So just... Throw it out there. What other clients did
[1:12:24] Speaker 2: Rob Pelinka have? What other ones did he need?
[1:12:28] Speaker 1: I'm just asking.
[1:12:30] Speaker 5: Did he just have Colby?
[1:12:32] Speaker 1: No, no, no.
[1:12:34] Speaker 3: He was one of the top. He was one of
[1:12:35] Speaker 3: the top.
[1:12:35] Speaker 1: So he had multiple, I'm saying, some of the other names.
[1:12:38] Speaker 5: I don't know. Really?
[1:12:40] Speaker 1: I don't know.
[1:12:41] Speaker 3: He did, he did, he did. Yeah, Harden. James Harden, yeah.
[1:12:45] Speaker 5: Okay.
[1:12:46] Speaker 3: Derrick Williams, Andre Drummond, Buddy Hill. Yeah, he had some guys.
[1:12:50] Speaker 1: Iggy. Iggy, yep.
[1:12:52] Speaker 3: So Cole was the main. Cole was his... And just to.
[1:12:55] Speaker 5: Throw it out there... The only one he talked to... Yeah,
[1:12:58] Speaker 5: that one. The Jerry Maguire. Yeah, the help me, help you. Oh,
[1:13:02] Speaker 5: he did.
[1:13:02] Speaker 1: Get him a ride to your world.
[1:13:03] Speaker 3: Oh, no, he was somebody else's agent, too. I'm just thinking, like.
[1:13:08] Speaker 1: What do you see on there? Is that you on
[1:13:10] Speaker 1: your phone, Statman?
[1:13:12] Speaker 3: Yes.
[1:13:12] Speaker 1: Okay. You Googled? All the people... No, you can't. You
[1:13:15] Speaker 1: got to Google this to know that.
[1:13:17] Speaker 5: This has represented many basketball players.
[1:13:19] Speaker 3: Kobe Bryant.
[1:13:20] Speaker 4: Kevin Durant.
[1:13:21] Speaker 3: LeBron James.
[1:13:23] Speaker 4: Kevin Durant.
[1:13:24] Speaker 5: Derrick Williams, Deion Waiter.
[1:13:26] Speaker 1: So what my point I'm making is, it doesn't take, listen,
[1:13:30] Speaker 1: it doesn't, so, cool.
[1:13:33] Speaker 3: Right here, bro.
[1:13:33] Speaker 5: It doesn't take.
[1:13:35] Speaker 3: It doesn't take for you to know.
[1:13:40] Speaker 1: Basketball to know that the guys that you guys are
[1:13:43] Speaker 1: naming are really good.
[1:13:46] Speaker 3: Yep.
[1:13:46] Speaker 1: Right?
[1:13:47] Speaker 3: It don't take much to know that.
[1:13:48] Speaker 1: Derrick Williams.
[1:13:49] Speaker 3: You didn't have to represent those guys. You didn't have to... Right,
[1:13:52] Speaker 3: you didn't have to do shit. You didn't have to
[1:13:54] Speaker 3: do shit. You had to be an agent to them.
[1:13:55] Speaker 3: Not for them. Facts, facts.
[1:13:57] Speaker 1: They didn't need you, to be honest. They could have
[1:14:00] Speaker 1: took the Ray Allen approach.
[1:14:01] Speaker 5: Facts.
[1:14:03] Speaker 1: For those that don't know, Ray Allen represented himself. Oh, wow.
[1:14:06] Speaker 4: Tracy McGrady?
[1:14:07] Speaker 3: Just had a lawyer. Just had a lawyer go over
[1:14:08] Speaker 3: the top.
[1:14:08] Speaker 5: That's why they picked Rob, because he got all the
[1:14:10] Speaker 5: access to all the guys.
[1:14:11] Speaker 3: Gil, you also represented yourself as well, right? He can
[1:14:12] Speaker 3: convince them to come to LA.
[1:14:14] Speaker 4: Some good guys.
[1:14:14] Speaker 3: Some good guys.
[1:14:16] Speaker 5: So think about when they lose access to those guys
[1:14:18] Speaker 5: due to the fact that they all changed agents. Yeah.
[1:14:22] Speaker 3: His access is like a facade.
[1:14:24] Speaker 5: So it's like, your resume say you got access to
[1:14:27] Speaker 5: these guys, but these dudes don't fuck with you like that. Yeah.
[1:14:29] Speaker 1: So it goes the same way, right? To your point, absolutely.
[1:14:32] Speaker 1: But it goes the same way. Just take Phil Jackson.
[1:14:37] Speaker 1: Phil Jackson was a great coach. Doesn't necessarily mean it's
[1:14:41] Speaker 1: going to transition to you being a good GM, a
[1:14:44] Speaker 1: good president.
[1:14:45] Speaker 5: It doesn't translate.
[1:14:46] Speaker 1: No, Steve agrees.
[1:14:47] Speaker 5: Right?
[1:14:48] Speaker 1: He did a terrible.
[1:14:49] Speaker 3: Job in New York.
[1:14:50] Speaker 1: No good at it for Phil Jackson's time with the Knicks. No, no,
[1:14:53] Speaker 1: terrible job in New York as calling the shots, right?
[1:14:57] Speaker 1: And so it goes the same thing for other aspects
[1:14:59] Speaker 1: of this. Like, just because you were a good agent
[1:15:02] Speaker 1: and you were able to recognize the Kevin Durants, the
[1:15:05] Speaker 1: Kobe Bryants, these big-time names, it doesn't take much to
[1:15:10] Speaker 1: walk in a gym and realize that's the best player there.
[1:15:12] Speaker 3: I would like to represent that good player.
[1:15:14] Speaker 1: Absolutely.
[1:15:15] Speaker 5: It doesn't take much.
[1:15:16] Speaker 1: Who's available? Number one player in the country.
[1:15:18] Speaker 5: Got him. Let's go see him.
[1:15:20] Speaker 1: Who is his parent?
[1:15:21] Speaker 5: Where are his parents?
[1:15:23] Speaker 1: It doesn't take much. But to transition that into a
[1:15:26] Speaker 1: front office gig and you have to put a team together,
[1:15:29] Speaker 1: that's a.
[1:15:30] Speaker 3: Different skill set.
[1:15:31] Speaker 5: So....
[1:15:33] Speaker 1: It doesn't necessarily translate into every case. Some guys can
[1:15:36] Speaker 1: do it. Or some guys have help. Like Leon Rose
[1:15:39] Speaker 1: has help over there. He was an agent before.
[1:15:41] Speaker 3: He has help.
[1:15:42] Speaker 1: You're talking about Bob Myers too, agent, before winning four
[1:15:45] Speaker 1: titles with the Warriors. But you have help over there.
[1:15:47] Speaker 1: So you know you put these collective minds together and
[1:15:51] Speaker 1: it works. But when you've been, not to say Jenny
[1:15:55] Speaker 1: don't know what she's doing, but when it's been handed
[1:15:58] Speaker 1: down to you, you are handicapped to a certain degree
[1:16:01] Speaker 1: from the work that your father did. to put this
[1:16:04] Speaker 1: thing together to win all these championships. So, you need help, right?
[1:16:11] Speaker 1: So you need to put basketball people that know what
[1:16:16] Speaker 1: they're doing in position to help you make these decisions.
[1:16:20] Speaker 1: And I don't think they've done that. I love Magic
[1:16:23] Speaker 1: Johnson to death. As a player, as a businessman. To
[1:16:29] Speaker 1: be in the front office, picking talent, I don't know
[1:16:32] Speaker 1: if that's Magic's strong suit. Magic probably need to hire somebody.
[1:16:39] Speaker 5: He did get the A.D. trade.
[1:16:41] Speaker 3: It was.
[1:16:42] Speaker 5: It was.
[1:16:44] Speaker 3: Yes, but it's.
[1:16:46] Speaker 1: Short-lived.
[1:16:47] Speaker 3: Yeah, not fair. Short-lived in the front office.
[1:16:49] Speaker 1: So you don't know the extent of that job until
[1:16:52] Speaker 1: you get it and realize it's not my wheelhouse. I'm not,
[1:16:58] Speaker 1: I shouldn't be like, I wanted this job. But this job,
[1:17:04] Speaker 1: I was good at this part of the game.
[1:17:06] Speaker 3: Yeah.
[1:17:07] Speaker 1: Not this. So I think that's what they've been running
[1:17:11] Speaker 1: into lately. How long she had the team? She's been
[1:17:13] Speaker 1: running the team since... And it's relationships. Hold on. And
[1:17:17] Speaker 1: it's relationships, right? People probably just... People probably don't want
[1:17:21] Speaker 1: to deal with dude, right? Y'all don't know that? His
[1:17:24] Speaker 1: relationships with other GMs or other league... Rob Palenka. It
[1:17:29] Speaker 1: can't be that good.
[1:17:30] Speaker 3: That's what I'm saying.
[1:17:31] Speaker 1: So you dealing with other people around the league, you
[1:17:35] Speaker 1: build a relationship over the years because you had other
[1:17:37] Speaker 1: people to represent, right? You've probably left a bad taste
[1:17:40] Speaker 1: in business doing business with other teams, trying to force
[1:17:43] Speaker 1: other teams' hands to sign your guy, to bring this
[1:17:45] Speaker 1: guy in, to give your guy this, and you left
[1:17:47] Speaker 1: a bad taste in some of these teams. Now they
[1:17:49] Speaker 1: don't want to do business with you. Now you're in
[1:17:51] Speaker 1: a position to do business. Now they want to do
[1:17:52] Speaker 1: business with you. It could be that. It could. It's
[1:17:54] Speaker 1: a multiple. Whatever it is, the Lakers' front office ain't
[1:17:57] Speaker 1: been getting it done from free agency to trade deadlines,
[1:18:01] Speaker 1: and et cetera.
[1:18:03] Speaker 6: Just looking at his list, he's not a talent finder.
[1:18:11] Speaker 6: He can't see talent. All of these names that he
[1:18:15] Speaker 6: has weren't his original guys. He signed them after the fact, right?
[1:18:21] Speaker 6: RM Tellem was Kobe. So RM Tellem spotted the Kobe Bryant.
[1:18:27] Speaker 1: He gets the Kobe wins, Kobe's Kobe.
[1:18:29] Speaker 5: Right?
[1:18:29] Speaker 1: Same thing with Durant. Durant started with another agent. Hey,
[1:18:34] Speaker 1: how you doing? You unhappy? You unhappy? I got you.
[1:18:38] Speaker 1: That guy.
[1:18:39] Speaker 4: How long was he an agent?
[1:18:40] Speaker 5: Huh?
[1:18:41] Speaker 4: Let me see. Rob, how long was he an agent?
[1:18:43] Speaker 1: I don't know.
[1:18:45] Speaker 6: But I know Kevin Durant started with Aaron Goodwin.
[1:18:47] Speaker 1: Yeah.
[1:18:48] Speaker 3: Right?
[1:18:48] Speaker 6: So all these guys start so... someone else found him.
[1:18:51] Speaker 6: You're just collecting, so.
[1:18:54] Speaker 1: You're not the seeker. You're not going to the gyms.
[1:18:57] Speaker 6: You don't have anybody running to see the gyms that's
[1:19:00] Speaker 6: coming out. You're just getting the high-level guys.
[1:19:02] Speaker 3: I gave him too much.
[1:19:03] Speaker 5: Credit, dude.
[1:19:04] Speaker 3: Yeah, you're getting too much credit. That's what I'm saying. Yeah,
[1:19:06] Speaker 3: because it ain't on him.
[1:19:07] Speaker 1: Around like 2000-ish, I think he started becoming an agent.
[1:19:10] Speaker 1: He became an agent in 2000? So he got his
[1:19:13] Speaker 1: license in 96, I think, to practice law. Who was
[1:19:16] Speaker 1: his first client? So he was working underneath Arn Tellem. Oh,
[1:19:19] Speaker 1: there it go.
[1:19:20] Speaker 5: Wow. There it go.
[1:19:22] Speaker 8: Wow.
[1:19:23] Speaker 3: Stole Kobe from him.
[1:19:24] Speaker 5: There it go.
[1:19:25] Speaker 1: Right there.
[1:19:27] Speaker 3: Missing the context, man. He must have been. Yeah, I
[1:19:30] Speaker 3: was missing the context.
[1:19:31] Speaker 1: We was. We probably was missing it, but there it go.
[1:19:33] Speaker 3: There it go.
[1:19:34] Speaker 5: There it go right there.
[1:19:35] Speaker 3: That's the elephant.
[1:19:35] Speaker 8: Wow.
[1:19:36] Speaker 5: 2000. That's the elephant.
[1:19:38] Speaker 3: Because that's the one who, he's talking, he's the one
[1:19:40] Speaker 3: who's dealing with it.
[1:19:41] Speaker 2: Came underneath arm, then left to go start the landmark
[1:19:43] Speaker 2: sports agency.
[1:19:44] Speaker 5: I bet he did. First client. Guess who did that?
[1:19:49] Speaker 5: Guess who did follow that blueprint?
[1:19:51] Speaker 1: A lot of them.
[1:19:52] Speaker 3: One guy, specifically.
[1:19:54] Speaker 5: Because he's the agent of the greatest of all time. Oh.
[1:20:01] Speaker 1: David Falk?
[1:20:02] Speaker 5: Who was under David Falk?
[1:20:03] Speaker 1: Rich. Rich Falk was starting. Yeah, Tarsier, I think, branched off. Nah,
[1:20:09] Speaker 1: his first claim was with Bledsoe.
[1:20:12] Speaker 3: Yeah, Eric. But he got him from.
[1:20:15] Speaker 6: Learned the game with him. Bledsoe and Kobe, that's... Your
[1:20:19] Speaker 6: first client is Kobe. You can get anybody after that.
[1:20:23] Speaker 5: No, but realistically, his first client would have been Brian.
[1:20:29] Speaker 3: Who?
[1:20:29] Speaker 5: Rich. His first client would have been Brian. But he
[1:20:33] Speaker 5: started with Bled, and he needed to show them that
[1:20:37] Speaker 5: he could do it.
[1:20:38] Speaker 3: Like, Brian wasn't going to come on board. He wasn't
[1:20:41] Speaker 3: trying to.
[1:20:41] Speaker 6: Be an agent because he had Bledsoe was... Bledsoe was
[1:20:46] Speaker 6: fucking with him so much. He was like, man, you
[1:20:48] Speaker 6: do all this. You know how it is, right?
[1:20:50] Speaker 3: You're Asian to Asian, then.
[1:20:51] Speaker 5: You got the person that you talk to every motherfucking day.
[1:20:53] Speaker 6: And this motherfucker, oh, I'm going to go get you this,
[1:20:55] Speaker 6: I'm going to get you that, blah, blah, blah. And
[1:20:56] Speaker 6: you're like, what the fuck do I need him for?
[1:20:58] Speaker 6: Why don't you just be my agent? And that's how
[1:21:00] Speaker 6: the Bledsoe thing started.
[1:21:01] Speaker 1: And he's like, what do you mean be an agent?
[1:21:04] Speaker 3: That's how the fucking pop-rock-a-linker shit is. Hey, what you got?
[1:21:07] Speaker 3: What you need?
[1:21:08] Speaker 5: Because I started with Dan Fagan.
[1:21:11] Speaker 1: And I didn't never see Dan, right? Mm-hmm. And the
[1:21:16] Speaker 1: guy who I saw every day was Brian.
[1:21:18] Speaker 5: Brian.
[1:21:18] Speaker 1: Right? Brian was like, shit, you want to start? They separated.
[1:21:23] Speaker 1: I'm like, I don't know him. I don't know him. Right?
[1:21:27] Speaker 1: He's a great agent. But I don't know dudes. I'm
[1:21:30] Speaker 1: going to go with the guy who I got the
[1:21:31] Speaker 1: relationship with. They don't be understanding that. Yeah, like, I
[1:21:35] Speaker 1: got the relationship with him. This guy drove me around
[1:21:37] Speaker 1: when I couldn't drive.
[1:21:38] Speaker 3: You know why they don't understand? They don't care. They're like,
[1:21:41] Speaker 3: I'll get another one of you.
[1:21:42] Speaker 1: Nah, they just don't understand. The relationship, bro. The NBA
[1:21:46] Speaker 1: player is isolated.
[1:21:48] Speaker 5: Yeah.
[1:21:49] Speaker 6: So you got the runner, like, talking to me every day.
[1:21:52] Speaker 6: He's hearing my problems.
[1:21:54] Speaker 5: Right?
[1:21:54] Speaker 1: Same thing when I got drafted. I didn't talk to
[1:21:56] Speaker 1: Dan the whole first year.
[1:21:57] Speaker 5: Yeah.
[1:21:58] Speaker 3: Like, my dad is like, yo, you gonna talk to
[1:22:00] Speaker 3: the agent?
[1:22:00] Speaker 1: I ain't got no agent, man.
[1:22:03] Speaker 3: The agent in here, motherfucker, 3 in the morning working?
[1:22:05] Speaker 1: He ain't doing that?
[1:22:06] Speaker 5: No, I want to talk to him now.
[1:22:08] Speaker 6: We'll talk when we come to contract, yeah. And we're
[1:22:13] Speaker 6: going to see what he can do. I'm doing what
[1:22:14] Speaker 6: I'm going to do.
[1:22:15] Speaker 3: Let me see what he can do.
[1:22:16] Speaker 1: God rest that man's soul, but yeah, I never saw that.
[1:22:20] Speaker 5: Right.
[1:22:20] Speaker 1: That's why I went to myself. Like, I don't need
[1:22:23] Speaker 1: you at this point. I know how to say Max.
[1:22:27] Speaker 3: You know? I don't need to.
[1:22:30] Speaker 6: Whatever language you're going to say, Max.
[1:22:33] Speaker 5: That sounds pretty easy. Hey, how you doing? Max. Yeah.
[1:22:38] Speaker 5: What the fuck?
[1:22:38] Speaker 6: I'm paying 4% to say that.
[1:22:40] Speaker 7: Don't have the same agent.
[1:22:41] Speaker 3: Max. We started with the same agent. We started with
[1:22:43] Speaker 3: the same agent. All right, well, let's keep it moving forward.
[1:22:46] Speaker 2: So as I mentioned earlier, Brownie played career-high 15 minutes
[1:22:49] Speaker 2: in the game, seeing some rotational minutes, including time in
[1:22:52] Speaker 2: the first quarter.
[1:22:53] Speaker 1: After the game, J.J.
[1:22:54] Speaker 2: Redick and LeBron had this to say about Brownie seeing
[1:22:56] Speaker 2: extended minutes for the first time in his NBA career.
[1:22:59] Speaker 10: Just felt like on a back-to-back, just him giving us energy,
[1:23:04] Speaker 10: I think, was the goal. You know, maybe put him
[1:23:10] Speaker 10: in a tough spot, you know, flying up yesterday and
[1:23:14] Speaker 10: you know, nationally televised game and Philly and all that stuff. It's,
[1:23:20] Speaker 10: you know, he didn't play well, but he's been playing great, uh,
[1:23:25] Speaker 10: you know, in, in the state ready games and he's
[1:23:27] Speaker 10: been playing great in the G. So, um, I've, I've
[1:23:31] Speaker 10: confidence in him, but, um, obviously he didn't provide that
[1:23:38] Speaker 10: at a high level.
[1:23:38] Speaker 9: It's just about him just getting more and more comfortable.
[1:23:41] Speaker 3: Obviously, you know, it's just first extensive.
[1:23:43] Speaker 9: Minutes, you know, with us. You know, we had that
[1:23:45] Speaker 9: first game where it was just a moment, you know,
[1:23:48] Speaker 9: and that was a great moment. But tonight was his
[1:23:49] Speaker 9: first opportunity.
[1:23:50] Speaker 3: To be with the big guys, with the big club.
[1:23:52] Speaker 1: And, you know, he's going to continue to use that.
[1:23:54] Speaker 1: I mean, getting better and better.
[1:23:56] Speaker 9: It's just like his first time when he played with
[1:23:57] Speaker 9: the G League. There's more and more opportunities you get.
[1:24:01] Speaker 9: Hopefully he does get more opportunities, but that's obviously out
[1:24:04] Speaker 9: of his hands. What he can't control is how he
[1:24:06] Speaker 9: continues to work on his game and get better and better,
[1:24:08] Speaker 9: which we've seen him do from the moment he entered
[1:24:10] Speaker 9: that Minnesota game to today.
[1:24:12] Speaker 3: You guys are done.
[1:24:13] Speaker 2: So, Cemetery Larry, after seeing the J.J. Reddit clip, you
[1:24:17] Speaker 2: offered this response on Twitter.
[1:24:21] Speaker 4: Facts.
[1:24:28] Speaker 3: Several question marks. But I'll leave it to the couch.
[1:24:32] Speaker 2: How did Bronny look in his first extended NBA game action?
[1:24:36] Speaker 2: I saw you shaking your head with even J.J. 's decision,
[1:24:38] Speaker 2: fly him up, put him in a primetime game.
[1:24:41] Speaker 1: Y'all want me to go first? When he was talking,
[1:24:51] Speaker 1: I looked over at Shur. I said, did he just
[1:24:53] Speaker 1: say maybe?
[1:24:56] Speaker 5: J.J. Redick. J.J.
[1:24:57] Speaker 1: Redick, like, used the word maybe when he said he
[1:25:01] Speaker 1: put him in a tough spot.
[1:25:02] Speaker 5: Yeah.
[1:25:04] Speaker 3: Like, no, JJ.
[1:25:06] Speaker 5: You put him in a horrible.
[1:25:08] Speaker 4: There's no maybe.
[1:25:09] Speaker 3: Horrible situation.
[1:25:10] Speaker 5: A horrible spot.
[1:25:13] Speaker 1: And then to piggyback on that, that he didn't play well,
[1:25:18] Speaker 1: come out of your mouth? Like, that's horrible, man. Like,
[1:25:22] Speaker 1: you a piece of shit for that. Like, you don't say, no,
[1:25:27] Speaker 1: there's no... No, he's the 55th pick. Let's act like it.
[1:25:34] Speaker 1: You put him in a situation, y'all flew him into
[1:25:38] Speaker 1: Philadelphia to come play on the back-to-back. Y'all put him
[1:25:41] Speaker 1: out there to try to have to guard Tyrese Maxey
[1:25:43] Speaker 1: in this tough situation. Y'all did that to him. So
[1:25:47] Speaker 1: this is on you. Or if you're being forced to
[1:25:51] Speaker 1: play to him, this is on whoever told you to
[1:25:53] Speaker 1: put him in, if they did. you and your coaching
[1:25:57] Speaker 1: staff and y'all meeting, deciding or whoever made the decision
[1:26:03] Speaker 1: to put this kid in the game and put him
[1:26:05] Speaker 1: in this situation, it's on you, not on him at all.
[1:26:13] Speaker 1: Like we said time and time again, man, there should
[1:26:16] Speaker 1: be no expectations coming from Bronny James whatsoever. You put
[1:26:22] Speaker 1: him in a tough spot. I didn't know that was
[1:26:25] Speaker 1: his 13th game playing last night. He had played 12
[1:26:29] Speaker 1: other NBA games with the Lakers.
[1:26:30] Speaker 5: I didn't know.
[1:26:31] Speaker 1: 12 other games prior to that.
[1:26:33] Speaker 5: 70 seconds?
[1:26:38] Speaker 1: One minute? Yeah, but they're putting him in, whatever it is,
[1:26:41] Speaker 1: but he's gotten in, right? Whatever the time has been.
[1:26:45] Speaker 1: Hasn't played more than five minutes in any of the
[1:26:47] Speaker 1: previous games.
[1:26:48] Speaker 5: 44 total minutes.
[1:26:50] Speaker 1: 44 total minutes, right, of NBA action, including last night
[1:26:54] Speaker 1: or before last night?
[1:26:54] Speaker 4: Or including last night.
[1:26:56] Speaker 5: Including last night.
[1:26:57] Speaker 2: 29 total coming into last night, 15 minutes in that game,
[1:26:59] Speaker 2: which was his career high to this point.
[1:27:03] Speaker 1: That statement, and you look at the stats, that it's like,
[1:27:09] Speaker 1: you don't do that to that kid. to come on
[1:27:12] Speaker 1: national television and press conference, you take that hit for him.
[1:27:21] Speaker 1: I put him in a tough spot.
[1:27:23] Speaker 5: Yeah.
[1:27:23] Speaker 3: To give us energy.
[1:27:25] Speaker 1: I put him in a tough spot.
[1:27:27] Speaker 3: Yeah. That's your responsibility. Flew him up here.
[1:27:30] Speaker 1: I flew him in and threw him in an NBA game.
[1:27:33] Speaker 4: And then to say he didn't play well.
[1:27:34] Speaker 1: And to say he didn't play well.
[1:27:36] Speaker 3: Because he played well, but he was playing well.
[1:27:37] Speaker 5: He was playing well and would leave him where he
[1:27:40] Speaker 5: is then. You disrupted that to fuck up his confidence
[1:27:43] Speaker 5: even more. Now he got to go back down there
[1:27:45] Speaker 5: and reflect on how he played like shit in 15
[1:27:48] Speaker 5: minutes against an all-world point guard. He ain't even had
[1:27:52] Speaker 5: a chance to duplicate. Who on your team can play
[1:27:54] Speaker 5: like Tyrese Maxey? That you supposed to be like, I
[1:27:57] Speaker 5: can do this tonight. No, man, just hear me out.
[1:28:01] Speaker 1: This kid flew in. There's no case scenario. He on
[1:28:06] Speaker 1: that flight. Ain't no way he thinking about getting in
[1:28:11] Speaker 1: no game. Off the plane?
[1:28:16] Speaker 5: Playing 15 minutes? Off the plane. He ain't from a trade.
[1:28:20] Speaker 5: This ain't off a trade. And you a star for
[1:28:22] Speaker 5: star and I'm playing tonight when I land. He not
[1:28:24] Speaker 5: thinking about basketball.
[1:28:29] Speaker 3: Brian, you gonna start tonight.
[1:28:30] Speaker 5: I'll start, man.
[1:28:31] Speaker 3: You gonna start tonight. It's that shit, man. Motherfucker ain't playing.
[1:28:38] Speaker 1: It's that shit Rashad talking about right now. Motherfucker got
[1:28:41] Speaker 1: 17 straight DNPs and then you want a motherfucker to
[1:28:45] Speaker 1: start a motherfucker and think he gonna go out there
[1:28:47] Speaker 1: and produce.
[1:28:48] Speaker 3: Man.
[1:28:49] Speaker 1: That's the same shit. Like, you don't put him in
[1:28:51] Speaker 1: that situation, man.
[1:28:52] Speaker 5: At all. Not in the first quarter.
[1:28:54] Speaker 1: The game got out of hand.
[1:28:55] Speaker 5: Then you put him in.
[1:28:57] Speaker 3: Yes. Let him give up.
[1:28:58] Speaker 5: Then you put him in.
[1:29:00] Speaker 3: Yeah.
[1:29:01] Speaker 1: No pressure.
[1:29:02] Speaker 3: No pressure.
[1:29:03] Speaker 1: What game has.
[1:29:04] Speaker 5: He got in?
[1:29:04] Speaker 1: Whatever the score, whatever you put him in, like, you
[1:29:06] Speaker 1: put him in these situations, man.
[1:29:08] Speaker 3: Like, let's stop it, man.
[1:29:11] Speaker 1: Then now his teammate and, unfortunately, his dad got to
[1:29:14] Speaker 1: go fucking defend him because you put him in this spot.
[1:29:18] Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah.
[1:29:19] Speaker 5: Right? Yeah.
[1:29:20] Speaker 3: Because you put him in this situation.
[1:29:22] Speaker 5: Yeah. If his dad.
[1:29:25] Speaker 1: said what he was really feeling and thinking.
[1:29:29] Speaker 5: Now he an asshole.
[1:29:33] Speaker 1: Because I guarantee the thought is, man, no, you put
[1:29:35] Speaker 1: him in that situation, dog.
[1:29:37] Speaker 5: My question is, who said he had a bad game?
[1:29:43] Speaker 5: Where is the bad game coming from? The words came
[1:29:45] Speaker 5: out of his mouth. Three turnovers, one foul, no points.
[1:29:49] Speaker 3: Because he missed shots?
[1:29:51] Speaker 5: Three turnovers, one foul, no points, no rebounds.
[1:29:55] Speaker 1: Was Maxie burning by him?
[1:29:57] Speaker 3: Yeah.
[1:29:58] Speaker 5: One time?
[1:29:58] Speaker 3: It's enough. Was the shots he'd taken bad?
[1:30:01] Speaker 5: He missed good shots.
[1:30:03] Speaker 6: There's probably only one questionable shot in my eye. when
[1:30:07] Speaker 6: he was on a fast break and he tried to
[1:30:09] Speaker 6: Euro and he got blocked.
[1:30:11] Speaker 1: Yeah. Other than that, every shot was a good shot.
[1:30:15] Speaker 1: He just... So.
[1:30:17] Speaker 6: It's not like he was out there playing bad basketball.
[1:30:21] Speaker 6: He played decent or good basketball, just missed shots.
[1:30:24] Speaker 5: Did Christie make up.
[1:30:26] Speaker 3: Was Christie playing bad?
[1:30:27] Speaker 5: He was one for motherfucking six? No, right?
[1:30:30] Speaker 4: But his coach said it.
[1:30:31] Speaker 3: Yeah, that's what I mean. But that's what I'm saying.
[1:30:34] Speaker 1: Did Finney, who's a veteran, did he play bad one
[1:30:38] Speaker 1: for six?
[1:30:40] Speaker 5: Playing 19 minutes? No. It's part of basketball. If you're
[1:30:44] Speaker 5: judging me off of my.
[1:30:45] Speaker 1: Motherfucking missed shots, then every day point out everybody who
[1:30:48] Speaker 1: plays motherfucking bad. But just because I missed wide open shots,
[1:30:53] Speaker 1: I didn't force anything.
[1:30:54] Speaker 5: I took the shot.
[1:30:55] Speaker 1: I was wide open. I didn't make it. Right?
[1:30:58] Speaker 6: This is the first time that I played against an all-star.
[1:31:03] Speaker 5: High-level all-star.
[1:31:04] Speaker 6: Usually I'm playing against a motherfucker that was drafted with me.
[1:31:08] Speaker 1: Second round, 53 pick, 54 pick.
[1:31:11] Speaker 6: We both motherfucking confused. That's what I'm used to playing.
[1:31:15] Speaker 5: You threw me in at the beginning of the game. Shit, okay,
[1:31:18] Speaker 5: I'm a little nervous.
[1:31:19] Speaker 1: I'm nervous.
[1:31:20] Speaker 5: I didn't score my first basket until February.
[1:31:23] Speaker 3: I didn't think I was going to play tonight.
[1:31:24] Speaker 4: But why do that to him?
[1:31:26] Speaker 3: Yeah, that's my point.
[1:31:27] Speaker 1: Why put him in that situation? Like the fact that
[1:31:32] Speaker 1: even if you told him, I'm 50-50% that you told him,
[1:31:37] Speaker 1: you might have just called that motherfucker number.
[1:31:39] Speaker 3: Hey, right.
[1:31:41] Speaker 1: What?
[1:31:41] Speaker 5: Right?
[1:31:42] Speaker 6: Even if you told me I'm going, hey, I'm going
[1:31:44] Speaker 6: to put you in in the first half, you done
[1:31:46] Speaker 6: fucked me up already.
[1:31:47] Speaker 8: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
[1:31:47] Speaker 1: Like in the middle of the game, oh, shit. Do
[1:31:52] Speaker 1: I got my right shoes on?
[1:31:53] Speaker 5: Do I got my tights on?
[1:31:54] Speaker 1: Like, that's nerve-wracking because this is meaningful minutes.
[1:31:59] Speaker 5: Right?
[1:31:59] Speaker 6: This is meaningful minutes. Like, this is.
[1:32:02] Speaker 3: New to everyone. And you called me a zero still
[1:32:04] Speaker 3: in the game.
[1:32:05] Speaker 1: Like, I mean, we know who robbed over in Dillingham.
[1:32:10] Speaker 5: Now, that's a motherfucking beast right there.
[1:32:12] Speaker 1: Right?
[1:32:13] Speaker 6: You put him in the game. He struggled early because
[1:32:16] Speaker 6: it's new to him.
[1:32:17] Speaker 5: Right?
[1:32:17] Speaker 6: You play somebody one minute here, 30 seconds here, two
[1:32:20] Speaker 6: minutes here, next, you know, see you in February.
[1:32:23] Speaker 1: Like... When it starts evening out, when he starts understanding, okay,
[1:32:28] Speaker 1: I'm good, the nerves kick out.
[1:32:30] Speaker 6: Then we can see what he has. But when you
[1:32:32] Speaker 6: watch him play, he looks good. He's getting to his spot.
[1:32:38] Speaker 6: It just ain't hitting yet.
[1:32:40] Speaker 1: Just like it took some time in the G League.
[1:32:42] Speaker 1: You need playing time. You need a consistent balance of
[1:32:45] Speaker 1: knowing when to go in.
[1:32:46] Speaker 3: This is basketball. We've been there before.
[1:32:48] Speaker 1: That's what I'm saying.
[1:32:48] Speaker 6: I didn't score my first basket until February, dawg.
[1:32:52] Speaker 5: February, I didn't get my first 16 minutes, and that
[1:32:56] Speaker 5: was my next 16 minutes to mid-February. When he started
[1:32:59] Speaker 5: giving me guaranteed five, I know I'm going to get in.
[1:33:02] Speaker 1: Eventually, my confidence, you know, I ain't got to rush.
[1:33:04] Speaker 1: I can take my time.
[1:33:05] Speaker 7: So do you think he's ready to play in the NBA?
[1:33:10] Speaker 1: We don't know who's ready until you put him out
[1:33:13] Speaker 1: there so we can watch him.
[1:33:14] Speaker 3: Hey, Cheryl.
[1:33:15] Speaker 1: We got to watch him.
[1:33:16] Speaker 5: Ask him again. He's going to avoid the question. You
[1:33:19] Speaker 5: have to reiterate it.
[1:33:20] Speaker 1: Did Sar look ready when he first started the season?
[1:33:24] Speaker 5: Hey, Cheryl, ask it again. He's running from you. You
[1:33:27] Speaker 5: have to ask him the question clear, simple.
[1:33:30] Speaker 1: It was clear. No, not for him.
[1:33:32] Speaker 3: You see, he's on his phone.
[1:33:33] Speaker 5: Look, ask him again.
[1:33:35] Speaker 3: One more time.
[1:33:36] Speaker 7: Gilbert, do you think Bronny James is ready for the NBA?
[1:33:43] Speaker 6: No one's ready for the NBA until they get there.
[1:33:46] Speaker 4: That doesn't answer the question.
[1:33:47] Speaker 6: What I'm saying is the number one pick, was he ready?
[1:33:49] Speaker 6: He's there, right? The number one, the number two pick,
[1:33:52] Speaker 6: were they ready?
[1:33:53] Speaker 5: What did the number one pick say? Hey, I'm going
[1:33:56] Speaker 5: to put the clock on. Let me put the clock on.
[1:33:58] Speaker 5: Let me put the clock on. He is not going
[1:33:59] Speaker 5: to answer this question.
[1:34:00] Speaker 3: Wait, hold on.
[1:34:00] Speaker 1: You're going to be able to do whatever you want
[1:34:02] Speaker 1: to do.
[1:34:07] Speaker 6: What did the number one pick in the draft say?
[1:34:09] Speaker 2: Zachary Richachet said, I was athletic in France. Sure, you
[1:34:12] Speaker 2: know I do that French. I was athletic in France.
[1:34:15] Speaker 2: Over here, I'm just kind of more average, like, yeah.
[1:34:18] Speaker 6: Right?
[1:34:18] Speaker 5: So he had to adjust, right?
[1:34:20] Speaker 1: He had to, like, the number two pick, he came
[1:34:23] Speaker 1: off the bench at the beginning.
[1:34:23] Speaker 6: He had to adjust. Everyone has to adjust.
[1:34:29] Speaker 5: Is he ready?
[1:34:30] Speaker 1: We don't know.
[1:34:30] Speaker 6: He hasn't got the opportunity.
[1:34:32] Speaker 1: We didn't think he was ready for the G League
[1:34:34] Speaker 1: until the motherfucker started averaging 17, and then everybody don't
[1:34:37] Speaker 1: want to say nothing.
[1:34:38] Speaker 5: Is Dalton Kinnick ready for the NBA?
[1:34:42] Speaker 7: Is he?
[1:34:43] Speaker 5: Do you want to look up his numbers? He just
[1:34:46] Speaker 5: had 24 last night.
[1:34:47] Speaker 3: What did he have the night before? I don't know.
[1:34:49] Speaker 3: I remember last night.
[1:34:50] Speaker 5: Because I could go off the night before.
[1:34:52] Speaker 3: Cheryl, Cheryl, ask him again.
[1:34:53] Speaker 1: He's also 24 years old. Cheryl, ask him again.
[1:34:56] Speaker 5: The clock is up. I'm filled with 45 seconds and countings. Oh,
[1:35:03] Speaker 5: my gosh.
[1:35:05] Speaker 1: Connect averaging nine points.
[1:35:06] Speaker 5: He's averaging what?
[1:35:07] Speaker 2: Ten points, three rebounds, one assist, and 21 minutes per
[1:35:12] Speaker 2: game this season.
[1:35:12] Speaker 1: 21 minutes per game.
[1:35:13] Speaker 5: He's doing what?
[1:35:14] Speaker 1: Ten points, three rebounds, one assist. Okay, now, you know what?
[1:35:19] Speaker 1: We're going to pretend this is yesterday.
[1:35:21] Speaker 5: Why not just.
[1:35:23] Speaker 7: Leave him with the G-League?
[1:35:24] Speaker 5: No, no, no.
[1:35:25] Speaker 3: He said, what did he say about Connect yesterday?
[1:35:28] Speaker 1: Right?
[1:35:28] Speaker 5: No, today.
[1:35:28] Speaker 1: He said what? What did he say?
[1:35:31] Speaker 5: He looked ready today, right? Okay, let's go to the game.
[1:35:35] Speaker 3: He looked ready from the moment he got in the game.
[1:35:36] Speaker 1: Let's go back to the game before when he had to. See,
[1:35:39] Speaker 1: this is what you like to do. Let's go to
[1:35:41] Speaker 1: the game before when he played 21 minutes.
[1:35:44] Speaker 5: Had two points.
[1:35:46] Speaker 1: You should have asked me then, so I could have
[1:35:47] Speaker 1: said no.
[1:35:48] Speaker 3: He averaged a 10.
[1:35:49] Speaker 5: No, he don't look ready. A 23-year-old averaging two points.
[1:35:54] Speaker 1: He don't look ready.
[1:35:55] Speaker 4: It's easy to do that.
[1:35:56] Speaker 1: He's averaging 10 points a game.
[1:35:58] Speaker 5: What was the energy before last night? 10 points a game.
[1:36:01] Speaker 5: He's not averaging. 3.
[1:36:04] Speaker 3: He's not averaging. 3.
[1:36:06] Speaker 5: He's averaging 10 points a game. That means any game
[1:36:10] Speaker 5: he can average, he can score 10. Any game, he
[1:36:13] Speaker 5: can score at least 10.
[1:36:15] Speaker 1: How much time is on the clock?
[1:36:17] Speaker 3: Two minutes on the clock.
[1:36:18] Speaker 1: Ask him again, Cheryl.
[1:36:19] Speaker 5: Connect.
[1:36:20] Speaker 1: Ask him one more time, Cheryl.
[1:36:22] Speaker 5: Two. He's trying to change the.
[1:36:23] Speaker 1: Goalpost, Cheryl.
[1:36:24] Speaker 5: He's moving the goalpost. You see him moving it. He
[1:36:27] Speaker 5: went from answering your question.
[1:36:29] Speaker 1: To arguing with me.
[1:36:31] Speaker 5: You're going to get your minutes, and I'm not going
[1:36:32] Speaker 5: to interrupt you at all.
[1:36:34] Speaker 1: You said he's ready, right?
[1:36:36] Speaker 3: Don't connect, yes.
[1:36:37] Speaker 5: Don't connect is ready to play in the NBA.
[1:36:41] Speaker 1: He is 23 years old, and he averages how many minutes?
[1:36:45] Speaker 1: 21 minutes. 21 minutes, and I see a score of
[1:36:48] Speaker 1: two points here, three points here, two, two, five, zero, six, four, seven, zero, two, five, six, six, two, six, six, 7, 9, 5, 2, 3, 5, 5, 0, 8, 5.
[1:37:05] Speaker 1: So what I'm saying is.
[1:37:06] Speaker 3: Where are the good numbers at? What I'm saying is.
[1:37:09] Speaker 5: Where are the good numbers at? Those are not 10
[1:37:11] Speaker 5: points a game.
[1:37:12] Speaker 1: He had a 37-piece a while back.
[1:37:14] Speaker 6: He had a 37-piece and a 24-piece, which helps him
[1:37:17] Speaker 6: get the 10.
[1:37:18] Speaker 1: What I'm saying is, if the 23-year-old is ready, and
[1:37:23] Speaker 1: these are the outputs that he has during the season...
[1:37:27] Speaker 1: How come you.
[1:37:28] Speaker 5: Can't let other people have those moments? He's getting a guarantee.
[1:37:32] Speaker 6: He knows when he's coming in again. He played 21
[1:37:35] Speaker 6: minutes and still had two points. He knew he was
[1:37:37] Speaker 6: getting in.
[1:37:38] Speaker 5: The motherfucker still had two. No one's talking shit.
[1:37:42] Speaker 1: No one's ready to.
[1:37:43] Speaker 6: Come up here and blast him on his first experience
[1:37:46] Speaker 6: of 15 minutes.
[1:37:47] Speaker 5: There's no way you get triggered this badly off of
[1:37:50] Speaker 5: one simple question. One simple question to ask, if Bronny
[1:37:54] Speaker 5: James ready, you went into a whole trigger mode. Because
[1:37:57] Speaker 5: I'm ready. Now you can go.
[1:37:58] Speaker 3: No, no, I'm ready for him to go.
[1:38:00] Speaker 1: I got nothing.
[1:38:01] Speaker 5: I want her to ask the question.
[1:38:02] Speaker 7: My other question, though, is more for JJ, right? Or
[1:38:08] Speaker 7: whoever that's saying, no, we're going to bring him up.
[1:38:10] Speaker 7: He's going to play 15 minutes. Like, what are your
[1:38:14] Speaker 7: expectations of Bronny when you're bringing him up?
[1:38:18] Speaker 4: He just got off a plane and.
[1:38:20] Speaker 7: Like, I think your expectations of him aren't very realistic.
[1:38:27] Speaker 6: No one's expectation of him is realistic.
[1:38:29] Speaker 1: But to go on there and say that he didn't
[1:38:31] Speaker 1: play well? That's an expectation.
[1:38:34] Speaker 5: There's an expectation. For you to go on your press
[1:38:38] Speaker 5: conference and say, not you, Gil, for him.
[1:38:40] Speaker 3: For J.J.
[1:38:40] Speaker 1: Ray to go on his press conference and.
[1:38:42] Speaker 7: The words to come out of his mouth to say
[1:38:44] Speaker 7: that he didn't play well... That means you came into
[1:38:49] Speaker 7: that game with him with expectations.
[1:38:51] Speaker 5: For him to do something.
[1:38:52] Speaker 7: This is what he's going to give you tonight.
[1:38:54] Speaker 3: Other than energy.
[1:38:56] Speaker 5: I haven't heard him say anybody else played.
[1:38:57] Speaker 3: Other than energy. Didn't play well.
[1:38:59] Speaker 5: I ain't never heard him say such and such didn't
[1:39:02] Speaker 5: play well tonight.
[1:39:04] Speaker 2: I feel like J.J. has called other people out throughout
[1:39:07] Speaker 2: the season.
[1:39:08] Speaker 3: You had to pull it up for me.
[1:39:09] Speaker 5: I'll find it, but I feel like he's not the
[1:39:11] Speaker 5: right person at least.
[1:39:12] Speaker 7: Yeah, he's... So, right, like, when I hear him say that,
[1:39:16] Speaker 7: my first thought is, oh, okay, you brought him up
[1:39:19] Speaker 7: for a reason, obviously. You put him in the game
[1:39:22] Speaker 7: early with expectations of, here's what he's going to give me.
[1:39:27] Speaker 5: Because.
[1:39:27] Speaker 7: Whether that was being a.
[1:39:30] Speaker 7: Defender, or you gonna stop Maxie, you gonna, whatever. Clearly,
[1:39:35] Speaker 7: he didn't do what J.J. wanted him to do for
[1:39:37] Speaker 7: him to say he didn't play well.
[1:39:39] Speaker 3: Yeah, it was something.
[1:39:40] Speaker 4: And I'm not going off of him being 0 for 3.
[1:39:42] Speaker 3: Not at all.
[1:39:43] Speaker 1: It ain't got shit to do with that. I'm just,
[1:39:45] Speaker 1: the words that came out this man's mouth is what
[1:39:47] Speaker 1: I'm using.
[1:39:48] Speaker 4: So, if I'm a reporter, in the room, I would
[1:39:50] Speaker 4: have said.
[1:39:51] Speaker 5: So, yeah.
[1:39:52] Speaker 7: So, what were you expecting out of him tonight?
[1:39:54] Speaker 4: Since he didn't play well.
[1:39:57] Speaker 1: But this is why I'm saying reality.
[1:39:59] Speaker 6: JJ was a lottery pick, right? And this is why
[1:40:02] Speaker 6: I say reality is not reality. You can, you say
[1:40:08] Speaker 6: he's not playing well. Now, a lottery pick, you didn't get,
[1:40:13] Speaker 6: he didn't get in the game until, what, game 13.
[1:40:16] Speaker 3: His first game was 14.
[1:40:18] Speaker 5: He played three minutes.
[1:40:19] Speaker 3: Then he didn't play a game for another five.
[1:40:21] Speaker 1: JJ Reddy. Like, you know how the NBA is, so
[1:40:25] Speaker 1: you know playing bad or not playing bad.
[1:40:27] Speaker 6: Is not dictated on if you're making shots.
[1:40:29] Speaker 1: When you just get in the game.
[1:40:30] Speaker 4: Gil, I understand that. That's why I said.
[1:40:33] Speaker 7: I'm not saying he didn't play well because he was
[1:40:34] Speaker 7: 0 for 3. My question is, JJ, as his coach,
[1:40:39] Speaker 7: and as someone who played the game, I never thought
[1:40:41] Speaker 7: JJ was very good, but.
[1:40:44] Speaker 4: Anyway.
[1:40:45] Speaker 7: But my point is, for you to go on there
[1:40:48] Speaker 7: and say, yep, he didn't play well.
[1:40:53] Speaker 4: I probably put him in a bad spot. You did
[1:40:56] Speaker 4: all those things.
[1:40:57] Speaker 7: What were you expecting from him to say he didn't
[1:41:00] Speaker 7: play well?
[1:41:01] Speaker 3: That's what I'm saying. Tell us, riddle me that shit.
[1:41:06] Speaker 5: Everybody misses shots.
[1:41:07] Speaker 7: For every person that misses shots, our coaches say, well,
[1:41:11] Speaker 7: he or she didn't play well because they missed shots.
[1:41:13] Speaker 4: We all miss shots. So what was it? Why are
[1:41:16] Speaker 4: you saying he didn't play well?
[1:41:19] Speaker 5: That was the question. I'm looking at his defense. You
[1:41:21] Speaker 5: watch all his plays. Every shot looked great. He only
[1:41:24] Speaker 5: had one questionable shot. He had a few turnovers. No
[1:41:27] Speaker 5: different than everybody else.
[1:41:28] Speaker 1: It's a decent game.
[1:41:30] Speaker 6: He just didn't score the ball. That's not considered a
[1:41:33] Speaker 6: bad game. We are, as an offensive player, you know, right?
[1:41:36] Speaker 1: It's not considered a bad game.
[1:41:39] Speaker 3: Was it your shot? Was this your shot? If it
[1:41:42] Speaker 3: was your shot.
[1:41:42] Speaker 4: It looked good?
[1:41:43] Speaker 1: That's a good shot.
[1:41:44] Speaker 4: Every shot was my shot. Every shot I shot, I
[1:41:46] Speaker 4: thought it was going in. But here's my point.
[1:41:48] Speaker 3: Three for 23.
[1:41:48] Speaker 4: But if you hear.
[1:41:50] Speaker 7: Your coach saying that, mentally, psychologically, what does that do
[1:41:56] Speaker 7: to you?
[1:41:56] Speaker 1: It's not bad at all.
[1:41:56] Speaker 5: You gotta get at least a layup or a free throw. What?
[1:41:59] Speaker 4: What'd you say?
[1:42:00] Speaker 5: I'm saying 0 for 3. 0 for 3 with 10
[1:42:04] Speaker 5: minutes played.
[1:42:05] Speaker 3: It's a bad game.
[1:42:07] Speaker 5: To who?
[1:42:07] Speaker 1: To me. To me?
[1:42:10] Speaker 3: Are you getting a guaranteed.
[1:42:11] Speaker 1: 10 minutes every game? It don't matter. It does.
[1:42:19] Speaker 5: I played 10 minutes.
[1:42:20] Speaker 1: I get minutes.
[1:42:21] Speaker 5: I need to take the best of those minutes. Those minutes,
[1:42:23] Speaker 5: 0 for 3, three turnovers, one foul.
[1:42:27] Speaker 3: I played bad tonight.
[1:42:28] Speaker 1: Says who? Says me.
[1:42:30] Speaker 3: That's you.
[1:42:33] Speaker 1: Because you missed your shots.
[1:42:34] Speaker 5: Your coach ain't got the right to come out and
[1:42:36] Speaker 5: say you played bad, though. Yes, he does.
[1:42:40] Speaker 1: No, okay, the goal.
[1:42:41] Speaker 3: Did you miss it?
[1:42:42] Speaker 1: Yes, he does.
[1:42:42] Speaker 5: Did you miss it? Everybody on that team had a
[1:42:44] Speaker 5: negative plus minus. Everybody on the team had a negative
[1:42:47] Speaker 5: plus minus. Browning had a negative eight plus minus. So
[1:42:51] Speaker 5: in that regard, when you look at who you should
[1:42:53] Speaker 5: look at and say, man, I gave him an opportunity,
[1:42:55] Speaker 5: he didn't play well tonight, he could say that about
[1:42:57] Speaker 5: everybody on the roster. But you asked me a question
[1:43:01] Speaker 5: about this kid.
[1:43:02] Speaker 1: He didn't play well tonight.
[1:43:04] Speaker 5: Says who? The fucking numbers.
[1:43:06] Speaker 3: What numbers?
[1:43:10] Speaker 1: So if he played 21 minutes and didn't shoot the ball,
[1:43:13] Speaker 1: did he have a good game?
[1:43:14] Speaker 3: If was a fifth. I'm asking you a question.
[1:43:18] Speaker 1: If he didn't shoot the ball, is that a good game?
[1:43:21] Speaker 5: Yes, it's a good game because he doesn't go 0
[1:43:23] Speaker 5: for 3.
[1:43:23] Speaker 4: Why do you still have this timer on?
[1:43:25] Speaker 5: Because he doesn't go 0 for 3. Why do you
[1:43:27] Speaker 5: have the timer on? He doesn't go 0 for 3, right?
[1:43:30] Speaker 5: But you still have three turnovers. Are turnovers good or
[1:43:34] Speaker 5: bad when you're in the game?
[1:43:36] Speaker 3: It depends on what you're trying to do with it.
[1:43:37] Speaker 3: Does it help your plus or minus?
[1:43:39] Speaker 4: Turnovers are bad.
[1:43:40] Speaker 5: Does it help your plus or minus?
[1:43:43] Speaker 1: Turnovers are bad.
[1:43:44] Speaker 3: Turnovers are not bad, Cheryl.
[1:43:46] Speaker 1: Why aren't they? How are you getting them? Are you
[1:43:47] Speaker 1: getting ripped? Are you trying to make them bad? How
[1:43:51] Speaker 1: are you getting these turnovers? All turnovers are not equal.
[1:43:54] Speaker 7: Turnovers are not good in basketball.
[1:43:56] Speaker 5: All turnovers are not created equal. What does a turnover mean?
[1:43:59] Speaker 5: What does a turnover mean?
[1:44:00] Speaker 1: I'm giving up. If I'm trying to give... I'm trying
[1:44:05] Speaker 1: to make.
[1:44:07] Speaker 1: We're on the break. It's a three on two.
[1:44:09] Speaker 5: No, not even that. I make a good pass, right?
[1:44:13] Speaker 5: You tip it on the defense. It goes off of
[1:44:15] Speaker 5: his hands and goes out of bounds.
[1:44:17] Speaker 3: That's a turnover.
[1:44:19] Speaker 1: On him. Right?
[1:44:20] Speaker 5: I'm trying to get him a layup.
[1:44:22] Speaker 1: Uh-huh.
[1:44:23] Speaker 5: The ball went out of bounds. Bad pass. No, it's
[1:44:26] Speaker 5: a good pass. She got her hand on it. She
[1:44:27] Speaker 5: played good defense. That was a bad pass. How?
[1:44:30] Speaker 1: Because she got her hand on it.
[1:44:31] Speaker 5: If you keep the ball, she don't touch it. You
[1:44:34] Speaker 5: just go ahead and dunk it. 3-0-2. But you touched it.
[1:44:38] Speaker 1: You touched it, so it's.
[1:44:38] Speaker 5: Out on you.
[1:44:40] Speaker 1: He said, I passed it, and she hit it.
[1:44:42] Speaker 5: I passed it, hit it, it touched your hand. What
[1:44:44] Speaker 5: is it called? It's a dead ball, it's called a turnover.
[1:44:47] Speaker 5: On you. What is it called? Aren't you?
[1:44:49] Speaker 1: What is it called? You know what I think is
[1:44:51] Speaker 1: bad turnover? Live ball turnovers. The ball went out of bounds,
[1:44:54] Speaker 1: dead ball turnovers. They got to take it out. We
[1:44:56] Speaker 1: get to set our defense. It's not the same as
[1:44:58] Speaker 1: a live ball turnover. You going at a motherfucker and
[1:45:00] Speaker 1: get a windmill dunk. Well, we lose a whole possession.
[1:45:03] Speaker 5: I agree with that.
[1:45:04] Speaker 1: A turnover, we lose a whole possession.
[1:45:06] Speaker 5: Yes.
[1:45:06] Speaker 1: That's a bad for us.
[1:45:07] Speaker 5: But all turnovers are not created equal.
[1:45:10] Speaker 4: But turnovers are not good.
[1:45:12] Speaker 5: They're not good.
[1:45:13] Speaker 1: Regardless, they're not good.
[1:45:14] Speaker 5: Turnovers.
[1:45:15] Speaker 3: There's aggressive turnovers.
[1:45:17] Speaker 1: There's passive turnovers.
[1:45:18] Speaker 5: Like I said, he just tried to make a pass.
[1:45:20] Speaker 5: You tipped it. He hits it last. He hits a turnover.
[1:45:23] Speaker 5: That's an unforced turnover. So I got a question. That's
[1:45:26] Speaker 5: an unforced turnover.
[1:45:27] Speaker 1: So sure, I got a question. I played with a
[1:45:29] Speaker 1: guy who led the league in assists.
[1:45:31] Speaker 6: And turnovers.
[1:45:32] Speaker 5: And turnovers.
[1:45:34] Speaker 4: Well, take care of the ball better.
[1:45:36] Speaker 3: Yes. He had.
[1:45:39] Speaker 5: Take care of the ball. What do you mean? He
[1:45:43] Speaker 5: would have had way more assists if he had taken
[1:45:45] Speaker 5: care of the ball a little bit more. So Jason Kidd.
[1:45:48] Speaker 1: What?
[1:45:49] Speaker 3: So Jason Kidd.
[1:45:50] Speaker 7: Just because he had turnovers, it doesn't mean he's not
[1:45:52] Speaker 7: a good.
[1:45:53] Speaker 1: Point guard?
[1:45:54] Speaker 5: Well, take care of the ball better. Yes.
[1:45:56] Speaker 1: So you want him to have low turnover. So you
[1:45:58] Speaker 1: want him to manipulate the game.
[1:46:00] Speaker 4: I do want him to have low turnover.
[1:46:01] Speaker 1: That's the game.
[1:46:01] Speaker 3: So you want him to play like Chris Paul?
[1:46:02] Speaker 4: I like Chris Paul's game.
[1:46:05] Speaker 5: You do?
[1:46:05] Speaker 1: I do.
[1:46:07] Speaker 5: I ain't saying he's a bad point guard. No, I'm
[1:46:09] Speaker 5: just saying.
[1:46:10] Speaker 1: I love you, Cheryl.
[1:46:11] Speaker 3: I love you, Cheryl.
[1:46:12] Speaker 1: No, no.
[1:46:12] Speaker 5: Stand on your point guard, too, Cheryl.
[1:46:15] Speaker 1: Chris Paul is one of the best.
[1:46:16] Speaker 5: Stand on your two.
[1:46:17] Speaker 1: Sure, you'll score, right?
[1:46:18] Speaker 3: Sure, you'll score.
[1:46:19] Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
[1:46:20] Speaker 3: Does rhythm mean anything to you?
[1:46:21] Speaker 4: Does rhythm?
[1:46:21] Speaker 1: Rhythm.
[1:46:22] Speaker 5: Yeah.
[1:46:22] Speaker 1: So would you rather your point guard come off this
[1:46:26] Speaker 1: pick and roll, see you open, but I'm going to
[1:46:31] Speaker 1: come off this motherfucker again?
[1:46:32] Speaker 6: No.
[1:46:34] Speaker 4: But when you see me.
[1:46:36] Speaker 1: Open, give me a drop. No, but you want the
[1:46:38] Speaker 1: ball when you open, right? But you want the ball
[1:46:40] Speaker 1: when you open, right?
[1:46:41] Speaker 4: I do, but.
[1:46:41] Speaker 3: You want the ball when you open, right?
[1:46:42] Speaker 6: Of course.
[1:46:43] Speaker 4: Okay. Because I'm going to do some good things with it.
[1:46:45] Speaker 5: Okay.
[1:46:46] Speaker 4: But at the same time.
[1:46:47] Speaker 5: But what if you're... But the point.
[1:46:48] Speaker 7: Guard might see something defensively that I don't see.
[1:46:53] Speaker 1: No. What you mean, no? What's the no from? You
[1:46:57] Speaker 1: can't say no to Coach's argument.
[1:47:00] Speaker 5: I have a question. What is the no?
[1:47:01] Speaker 1: Do you think Chris Paul manipulates the game of basketball? No.
[1:47:06] Speaker 7: Do I think Chris Paul does?
[1:47:07] Speaker 3: It wasn't to me.
[1:47:07] Speaker 5: I didn't ask you.
[1:47:08] Speaker 3: It wasn't to me.
[1:47:09] Speaker 1: I wasn't fucking talking.
[1:47:11] Speaker 5: At times.
[1:47:11] Speaker 1: At times?
[1:47:13] Speaker 5: I do, at times.
[1:47:14] Speaker 1: Really? At times? Mm-hmm.
[1:47:15] Speaker 5: How about all the time?
[1:47:17] Speaker 4: I don't think he does all the time.
[1:47:18] Speaker 3: Because you know what is going to be with Chris Paul?
[1:47:21] Speaker 3: You know what it's gonna be, every possession.
[1:47:24] Speaker 4: Are you asking me if I know what it's gonna be?
[1:47:26] Speaker 3: Every possession, you know what it's gonna be.
[1:47:27] Speaker 5: No.
[1:47:28] Speaker 1: Right? No. He's gonna get the assist or he's gonna
[1:47:34] Speaker 1: get the shot.
[1:47:36] Speaker 5: Or he's going to get the turnover.
[1:47:40] Speaker 4: Or he's going to get the turnover.
[1:47:41] Speaker 1: No, he's not.
[1:47:42] Speaker 4: Yes, he will.
[1:47:42] Speaker 5: Low assist. Yes, he does.
[1:47:44] Speaker 3: Chris Paul has more.
[1:47:45] Speaker 5: You said low assist. I know. I mean, high assist,
[1:47:48] Speaker 5: maybe one turnover, two best.
[1:47:51] Speaker 4: How many turnovers has he averaged in this year?
[1:47:52] Speaker 5: No, career.
[1:47:53] Speaker 3: You can go with his career.
[1:47:54] Speaker 1: Okay.
[1:47:55] Speaker 4: Career this year.
[1:47:56] Speaker 1: Yes.
[1:47:57] Speaker 3: You can go with his career.
[1:47:58] Speaker 1: Right? Yeah. Very seldom with Chris Paul do you get
[1:48:03] Speaker 1: a swing swing. You know what that is, right? Very seldom.
[1:48:11] Speaker 1: I ain't saying it never happens. He's going to throw
[1:48:14] Speaker 1: the ball so you can shoot it. Or he's going
[1:48:17] Speaker 1: to get the shot.
[1:48:18] Speaker 4: I don't know.
[1:48:19] Speaker 3: David West. I played with him. David West, Thor Jakovic. Swing, swing. No.
[1:48:24] Speaker 5: David West is shooting that motherfucker at the free throw line, brother.
[1:48:26] Speaker 5: Not if we full rotating. Ain't nobody full rotating. We
[1:48:28] Speaker 5: always had to on David West. That's your team.
[1:48:30] Speaker 1: Yeah. That's your team.
[1:48:31] Speaker 5: I'm just saying. Not a chance.
[1:48:33] Speaker 3: So, that's your team. We switched it.
[1:48:37] Speaker 5: So it's three for 12.
[1:48:39] Speaker 3: Is three for 12 a good game?
[1:48:42] Speaker 4: Going back to Bronnie being over three.
[1:48:44] Speaker 5: Three for 12 a plus game, but you was plus three.
[1:48:46] Speaker 4: Wait, wait, wait.
[1:48:47] Speaker 5: Three for 12.
[1:48:49] Speaker 7: What else did you do?
[1:48:50] Speaker 6: Three for 12, one turnover, one block, one steal, one assist,
[1:48:55] Speaker 6: one rebound.
[1:48:56] Speaker 4: That's a good game to me.
[1:48:57] Speaker 5: Played 21 minutes.
[1:48:58] Speaker 4: That's a good game.
[1:49:00] Speaker 3: Three for 12.
[1:49:03] Speaker 5: Nine shots.
[1:49:04] Speaker 3: Missed nine shots.
[1:49:05] Speaker 1: Missed nine shots.
[1:49:06] Speaker 6: Had one rebound, one assist, one steal, one block. Total
[1:49:10] Speaker 6: six points, plus three for the game.
[1:49:11] Speaker 4: That's not a bad game, to me.
[1:49:16] Speaker 3: Nobody wants to hear it to me.
[1:49:17] Speaker 1: Cheryl, no one wants to hear it to me.
[1:49:19] Speaker 5: You got to tell them some other shit, because when
[1:49:23] Speaker 5: you say to.
[1:49:24] Speaker 1: Me, it stops the conversation. But what I'm saying is,
[1:49:26] Speaker 1: what makes that a good game?
[1:49:28] Speaker 4: Well, I didn't say Bronnie had a good game.
[1:49:30] Speaker 3: No, I'm just saying, what makes this a good game?
[1:49:31] Speaker 7: Well, I'm not just looking at how many shots did
[1:49:34] Speaker 7: you make.
[1:49:34] Speaker 5: Ah, exactly.
[1:49:35] Speaker 7: I'm looking at what else did you contribute to the game.
[1:49:38] Speaker 1: Exactly.
[1:49:39] Speaker 7: And the part that, to me, the part that the stat.
[1:49:42] Speaker 4: Sheet doesn't show... Mm-hmm.
[1:49:44] Speaker 7: Is on the defensive end. Yeah, it'll show steals and
[1:49:46] Speaker 7: things like that. But also, how aggressive are you? Are
[1:49:49] Speaker 7: you just getting a hand on the ball? Are you
[1:49:51] Speaker 7: being aggressive on defense? Are you making your opponent, the
[1:49:56] Speaker 7: player you're defending, are you making him or her do
[1:49:59] Speaker 7: different things.
[1:49:59] Speaker 4: With the basketball?
[1:50:00] Speaker 1: But hold on. I got to tell this boy here. Hey,
[1:50:03] Speaker 1: you full of shit, too. I just want you to
[1:50:05] Speaker 1: know that. No facts? Because this motherfucker play basketball the
[1:50:08] Speaker 1: right way. He don't forget I fucking played with him,
[1:50:10] Speaker 1: teamed with him, man.
[1:50:10] Speaker 3: I coached this motherfucker. Do I got to take a
[1:50:12] Speaker 3: shit or something?
[1:50:13] Speaker 5: What's going on? I'm full of shit.
[1:50:14] Speaker 1: Why? Why do you like that? Because this motherfucker play
[1:50:16] Speaker 1: basketball the right way. When I said about the pass shit,
[1:50:18] Speaker 1: give me a better pass.
[1:50:20] Speaker 5: You full of shit. On the fast break, it's a
[1:50:22] Speaker 5: three on two.
[1:50:23] Speaker 1: I said, is she tipped? So she not play good defense?
[1:50:27] Speaker 5: Yeah, that's a bad pass if.
[1:50:28] Speaker 1: She tipped it.
[1:50:29] Speaker 5: How? Because it's a three on two. She guessed right. No, no,
[1:50:32] Speaker 5: you passed wrong. No. You passed too wrong.
[1:50:35] Speaker 6: Perfect.
[1:50:36] Speaker 5: She didn't guess right. You passed to the wrong number.
[1:50:39] Speaker 1: Bro, no, no, no.
[1:50:40] Speaker 5: Three on two. This is what we need to do. No, no, no.
[1:50:42] Speaker 5: I ain't going to let you ruin this.
[1:50:45] Speaker 1: Look, three on two.
[1:50:46] Speaker 5: Fast break. We used to do this in practice.
[1:50:48] Speaker 1: Listen to what I'm saying.
[1:50:50] Speaker 5: Three on two. I keep the ball until he stop me.
[1:50:53] Speaker 1: When he stop me.
[1:50:54] Speaker 5: The bad guy got to make a decision and anticipate
[1:50:58] Speaker 5: where I play.
[1:50:58] Speaker 1: Now, I can make it.
[1:50:59] Speaker 5: That's me playing good defense. And I got to make
[1:51:02] Speaker 5: the right pass. I got to make the right, I
[1:51:04] Speaker 5: always need.
[1:51:05] Speaker 1: The right pass.
[1:51:06] Speaker 5: It was very rarely that nigga touched the ball. Because
[1:51:09] Speaker 5: I got to make the right pass. Is that not
[1:51:11] Speaker 5: the right pass? And you get your hand on it.
[1:51:15] Speaker 5: And they go off of mine, right? No, how is
[1:51:18] Speaker 5: it different?
[1:51:19] Speaker 7: No, I said it's good defense.
[1:51:22] Speaker 5: Y'all are missing what he said.
[1:51:23] Speaker 1: He's full of shit.
[1:51:24] Speaker 5: What did he say? He's full of shit. King and you,
[1:51:27] Speaker 5: he's full of shit. If you hit the ball, I
[1:51:32] Speaker 5: made a bad pass because we have an advantage. We
[1:51:35] Speaker 5: have three players against two. My coach always said, if
[1:51:40] Speaker 5: the defense get their hand on the ball, y'all made
[1:51:42] Speaker 5: the wrong play. And you have an advantage. That was
[1:51:45] Speaker 5: not his example.
[1:51:46] Speaker 1: His example was, he's making the pass, she tips it,
[1:51:51] Speaker 1: you touch it last.
[1:51:52] Speaker 5: Is it a turnover? On you! It is. Is it
[1:51:55] Speaker 5: a turnover? On you! I don't give a fuck who
[1:51:56] Speaker 5: it is. But it's his turn. Is it a turnover? No,
[1:51:59] Speaker 5: it's a Rashad turnover.
[1:52:00] Speaker 1: But it's your turn.
[1:52:01] Speaker 4: It's a turnover.
[1:52:02] Speaker 5: We're on the same team.
[1:52:03] Speaker 1: We're on the same team.
[1:52:08] Speaker 5: Think about what I just said.
[1:52:10] Speaker 1: Because he's talking, he doesn't understand the context. He is
[1:52:14] Speaker 1: the point guard. He's coming down. He's making the pass
[1:52:17] Speaker 1: to Rashad. You tip it.
[1:52:20] Speaker 5: It goes out on him.
[1:52:22] Speaker 1: He gets this turnover. Yes! Not him.
[1:52:24] Speaker 5: We know! Gilbert is basketball! How does he... It's a turnover, period,
[1:52:30] Speaker 5: for the team!
[1:52:30] Speaker 1: No, not turnovers. How... And this is what he said.
[1:52:33] Speaker 1: He said, how does.
[1:52:35] Speaker 6: He deserve a turnover.
[1:52:37] Speaker 5: For.
[1:52:38] Speaker 3: Your good defense, he didn't do nothing.
[1:52:40] Speaker 1: This was his play.
[1:52:42] Speaker 5: This was his.
[1:52:43] Speaker 3: Play to make. You tipped it.
[1:52:45] Speaker 1: It went out on him, but he got an unforced turnover.
[1:52:49] Speaker 5: Now, you're reading. Unforced turnover. So there's an unforced turnover
[1:52:55] Speaker 5: and a forced turnover. I'm not saying that. I'm not
[1:52:59] Speaker 5: saying that. Yes, he gets the turnover. Unforced.
[1:53:02] Speaker 1: It's too different.
[1:53:03] Speaker 5: That's his personal. I understand how it happened. It's a turnover.
[1:53:06] Speaker 1: It doesn't say unforced. It's turnover. Let's bring it back in.
[1:53:09] Speaker 5: Do you know what also is a turnover? When the
[1:53:11] Speaker 5: shot at.
[1:53:12] Speaker 1: The end of the game. Shot clock.
[1:53:13] Speaker 5: No, at the end of the game, when the clock
[1:53:15] Speaker 5: running down and the team does win it.
[1:53:26] Speaker 1: And there's still time on that motherfucker, and they go
[1:53:28] Speaker 1: in the shot clock, and they turn, then they got
[1:53:29] Speaker 1: to get... That's also a fucking turnover.
[1:53:31] Speaker 3: Yes, it is.
[1:53:32] Speaker 5: So, therefore, like I said, not all turnovers are the same.
[1:53:39] Speaker 1: But are they all turnovers?
[1:53:40] Speaker 5: So, is that a bad turnover?
[1:53:41] Speaker 1: Are all turnovers turnovers? Hold on! God damn it! Is
[1:53:44] Speaker 1: that a bad turnover? Because you said all, no, because
[1:53:48] Speaker 1: in your words, all turnovers are bad.
[1:53:50] Speaker 5: They are. So is that a bad turnover?
[1:53:52] Speaker 7: It's a turnover.
[1:53:53] Speaker 5: I know, no, answer my question.
[1:53:55] Speaker 4: When the game is over, it doesn't matter.
[1:53:57] Speaker 5: It's on your session. It's on your session. Because the
[1:54:00] Speaker 5: game is over, it doesn't matter. You said this answer
[1:54:03] Speaker 5: opposite of whatever he wants you to say. Say the
[1:54:05] Speaker 5: other fucking thing.
[1:54:06] Speaker 1: Your words, you said all turnovers are bad. Yeah.
[1:54:10] Speaker 5: To me, it's a turnover.
[1:54:11] Speaker 1: So the example that I gave you, is that a
[1:54:13] Speaker 1: bad turnover? Absolutely.
[1:54:14] Speaker 4: It's the end of the game. So that turnover doesn't matter.
[1:54:17] Speaker 5: But it does. It's on your stat sheet.
[1:54:18] Speaker 4: It is on the stat sheet.
[1:54:19] Speaker 5: Unless you're looking at the game. No, listen. It's on
[1:54:22] Speaker 5: the stat sheet, but it's not.
[1:54:23] Speaker 7: It's on the stat sheet, but it's not going to
[1:54:26] Speaker 7: affect the outcome of the game.
[1:54:27] Speaker 1: The game is over.
[1:54:28] Speaker 3: Thank you, Cheryl.
[1:54:29] Speaker 5: Because the game is over. We're not looking at the game.
[1:54:32] Speaker 5: We're looking at the stat. They're going off the stats.
[1:54:33] Speaker 5: It's a turnover, though. It is. If we ask him,
[1:54:35] Speaker 5: and I said not all turnovers are the same.
[1:54:37] Speaker 3: No, because he didn't watch.
[1:54:44] Speaker 5: How did Bryony get his three turnovers?
[1:54:47] Speaker 1: So... How did Bryony get his three turnovers?
[1:54:50] Speaker 5: Ice cream!
[1:54:52] Speaker 6: I just want to know.
[1:54:54] Speaker 5: The ice cream man is coming!
[1:54:56] Speaker 4: I don't know. I ain't watch the game.
[1:54:59] Speaker 5: The ice cream man is coming!
[1:55:02] Speaker 3: No, no, no, let him, let him, no.
[1:55:04] Speaker 5: I need somebody!
[1:55:06] Speaker 1: I'm going to ask you a question. No, we got
[1:55:08] Speaker 1: to let him finish. He can finish, but I mean,
[1:55:10] Speaker 1: can you let him finish? You'll start your time. His
[1:55:12] Speaker 1: three turnovers.
[1:55:13] Speaker 3: I don't know.
[1:55:13] Speaker 1: How did, exactly. So what you just said.
[1:55:17] Speaker 6: Is irrelevant to people like him. You said this turnover
[1:55:21] Speaker 6: at the end of the game don't count.
[1:55:23] Speaker 5: Towards the total. He just watches the turnover. He just
[1:55:26] Speaker 5: wants to see the turnover. He doesn't know how the
[1:55:29] Speaker 5: turnover happened. He's just looking at the turnover, right?
[1:55:33] Speaker 6: In the shot clock, when you don't get it off
[1:55:34] Speaker 6: because you don't want to get that.
[1:55:36] Speaker 4: Mm-hmm.
[1:55:37] Speaker 1: He don't want to be the first?
[1:55:38] Speaker 5: He's not watching.
[1:55:39] Speaker 1: How many turnovers happened?
[1:55:40] Speaker 3: Let me tell you how much I watch, right?
[1:55:42] Speaker 5: There's a guy named LeBron James who had eight turnovers
[1:55:46] Speaker 5: last night. Yeah. Eight.
[1:55:49] Speaker 1: Eight.
[1:55:50] Speaker 5: How did he get them?
[1:55:51] Speaker 4: Eight.
[1:55:51] Speaker 5: Not three.
[1:55:52] Speaker 8: Not three.
[1:55:53] Speaker 5: He had eight.
[1:55:54] Speaker 1: He almost had a.
[1:55:56] Speaker 5: And now we're going to go through LeBron's whole game
[1:56:01] Speaker 5: and say, oh, that wasn't really a turnover.
[1:56:03] Speaker 3: Oh, that wasn't really a turnover either.
[1:56:05] Speaker 5: But somehow it ended up in the fucking stat book
[1:56:08] Speaker 5: as what? Turnovers. Turnovers. And this is the same man.
[1:56:14] Speaker 1: Oh, it rolled off my foot. Guess what that is?
[1:56:16] Speaker 1: I'm not over!
[1:56:17] Speaker 5: Oh, shit. Oh, my foot was in the wrong place
[1:56:19] Speaker 5: at the wrong time. Cheryl is a part of the
[1:56:21] Speaker 5: Move the Gold Post Club, too.
[1:56:23] Speaker 3: I didn't mean for my foot to be.
[1:56:24] Speaker 5: Here, but it's not.
[1:56:25] Speaker 1: You're a part of the Move the Gold Post Club, too.
[1:56:27] Speaker 1: I'm not moving the Gold Post. Last point, Gil. My words,
[1:56:31] Speaker 1: they came out of your mouth.
[1:56:33] Speaker 3: Go ahead, Gil.
[1:56:33] Speaker 5: It's your arena. It's your arena presented by Underdog.
[1:56:40] Speaker 4: It doesn't affect the... If it's at the end of the.
[1:56:42] Speaker 1: Game, that turnover.
[1:56:43] Speaker 5: You don't have to explain yourself. It doesn't change the
[1:56:46] Speaker 5: outcome of the game.
[1:56:47] Speaker 1: If you're watching the game, you know that. But if
[1:56:49] Speaker 1: some of you are not watching... If some of you
[1:56:51] Speaker 1: are looking at this, you do not have to explain yourself.
[1:56:53] Speaker 1: Whatever comes out of your mouth, I'm going to use
[1:56:55] Speaker 1: it against you.
[1:56:55] Speaker 5: And I'm going to use this against him.
[1:56:57] Speaker 3: You say it all.
[1:56:58] Speaker 1: So that's the word that I'm focusing on.
[1:57:00] Speaker 5: I did. I did say all. Damn, anything else, you
[1:57:03] Speaker 5: said all.
[1:57:03] Speaker 7: All as long as the game is still going on.
[1:57:06] Speaker 1: Oh, so now you want to clarify.
[1:57:08] Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, yeah. When the game is over. We're here
[1:57:12] Speaker 5: and we went from one question. We went from avoiding
[1:57:16] Speaker 5: one question. That's why I.
[1:57:16] Speaker 6: Like Cheryl because she adjusts her answer.
[1:57:20] Speaker 1: She agrees to what you want to agree to.
[1:57:23] Speaker 4: I didn't.
[1:57:23] Speaker 1: No, I did not.
[1:57:25] Speaker 5: I ain't going to submit. No, I did not.
[1:57:28] Speaker 3: You don't have to.
[1:57:29] Speaker 5: I ain't going to submit at all.
[1:57:31] Speaker 1: Y'all niggas ain't right. I'm right.
[1:57:33] Speaker 5: I'm right. You're not right.
[1:57:36] Speaker 4: I'm right.
[1:57:36] Speaker 1: What are you doing?
[1:57:37] Speaker 5: So you keep trying to convince her you right.
[1:57:39] Speaker 1: No, I don't need to convince her.
[1:57:40] Speaker 3: She ain't never going to convince me you right.
[1:57:42] Speaker 1: I know. Ever in life.
[1:57:43] Speaker 3: I know. So a few months ago.
[1:57:46] Speaker 1: There's a WNBA player by the name of Kaitlyn Clark.
[1:57:54] Speaker 3: How many turnovers was she having? The most in the league.
[1:57:58] Speaker 5: The most in the league. What was his defense? It's
[1:58:01] Speaker 5: hitting it in their hands.
[1:58:02] Speaker 1: It should be their turnovers. It ain't her turnovers.
[1:58:04] Speaker 5: It's their turnovers. They can't catch them all. Hit it
[1:58:06] Speaker 5: over her head.
[1:58:07] Speaker 1: That was you.
[1:58:08] Speaker 5: That was you.
[1:58:10] Speaker 1: You.
[1:58:10] Speaker 5: Did I try to take away her attention? Yes, you did.
[1:58:14] Speaker 5: You tried to take her away. He needs to get
[1:58:18] Speaker 5: better at her turnover. No, you did not.
[1:58:20] Speaker 1: You said the players need.
[1:58:22] Speaker 5: To get better at catching the ball. That's what you said.
[1:58:25] Speaker 5: That's what he had to do to bring that full circle.
[1:58:27] Speaker 1: Right?
[1:58:27] Speaker 5: He had to reach outside the box. No, I didn't.
[1:58:29] Speaker 5: He had to reach outside the box. I used your life.
[1:58:32] Speaker 1: You did.
[1:58:33] Speaker 5: I'll use the logic on the player you like.
[1:58:36] Speaker 1: Hey, you got to get better.
[1:58:38] Speaker 5: On the player? No, you did not.
[1:58:40] Speaker 1: Hey, you got to get better.
[1:58:41] Speaker 5: You cussed out the team.
[1:58:42] Speaker 6: Yes, I did.
[1:58:43] Speaker 5: Yes, I did. But we ain't talking about these guys.
[1:58:46] Speaker 5: These ain't the same turnovers that happened. Hey, so what
[1:58:49] Speaker 5: you saying?
[1:58:50] Speaker 1: Rodney James is Caitlyn Clark?
[1:58:52] Speaker 5: No. No, then we shutting the shit down. No, so
[1:58:55] Speaker 5: we shut it down. When you like someone, you make
[1:58:59] Speaker 5: an excuse. Caitlyn Clark playing 30 plus minutes. She got
[1:59:03] Speaker 5: the ball in her hand all the time. You said
[1:59:06] Speaker 5: LeBron James ate turnovers.
[1:59:07] Speaker 1: You said it's eight turnovers and you said it's his turnovers. Trash.
[1:59:11] Speaker 5: Caitlin Clark, when she was making all those turnovers. Greatness. Okay, exactly.
[1:59:15] Speaker 4: But they're still turnovers.
[1:59:17] Speaker 1: Yes, they're still turnovers. Back to the conversation.
[1:59:20] Speaker 5: Greatness versus trash. Back to the conversation. Trash, you 40
[1:59:23] Speaker 5: years old.
[1:59:24] Speaker 1: She's a rookie and you are back.
[1:59:26] Speaker 5: Ain't no fucking excuse now, huh? Somebody's still learning.
[1:59:30] Speaker 4: So what if, what if, sorry.
[1:59:32] Speaker 5: There you go. Go ahead. This is Bill's arena. Here
[1:59:35] Speaker 5: you go. So what if. He got caught.
[1:59:38] Speaker 4: What if she has the ball, right? She coming down
[1:59:41] Speaker 4: in transition.
[1:59:41] Speaker 5: It's a turnover.
[1:59:42] Speaker 7: Somebody gets, she makes a pass to you.
[1:59:45] Speaker 3: It don't matter.
[1:59:46] Speaker 5: What they categorize as a turnover when you lose the
[1:59:49] Speaker 5: position and it goes to the other team. That is
[1:59:52] Speaker 5: called a turnover. He got caught in the cookie jar.
[1:59:57] Speaker 3: We now know.
[1:59:58] Speaker 1: If he likes you. He makes an excuse for you.
[2:00:01] Speaker 5: So if I don't like.
[2:00:02] Speaker 1: If he don't like you, he's waiting.
[2:00:04] Speaker 5: For your downfall. So if I don't... So if I'm
[2:00:06] Speaker 5: sitting here saying... So you better be my friend. So
[2:00:09] Speaker 5: you better be my friend. You better want to be
[2:00:11] Speaker 5: my goddamn friend. Send me some DMs and you better
[2:00:14] Speaker 5: start saying hello. So... So if Ronnie James.
[2:00:17] Speaker 1: Misses layups and what's-his-name and I come up here with
[2:00:19] Speaker 1: an excuse, I don't need to hear shit because at
[2:00:22] Speaker 1: the end of the day, if I like you, I
[2:00:25] Speaker 1: defend you. If I don't, fuck you.
[2:00:28] Speaker 3: Exactly.
[2:00:28] Speaker 1: So.
[2:00:29] Speaker 2: Before we proceed, before we proceed, to everybody out there
[2:00:32] Speaker 2: that thinks Sean and Gil are beefing, just to show
[2:00:34] Speaker 2: you how close they are, how connected they are. Gil,
[2:00:36] Speaker 2: can you please lift your shirt up for me, please?
[2:00:38] Speaker 5: Please lift. Bam! They're wearing the same shirt!
[2:00:42] Speaker 1: They're wearing the same shirt!
[2:00:47] Speaker 5: They are best friends! They are wearing the same t-shirt! Unplanned!
[2:00:52] Speaker 5: Let's go!
[2:00:52] Speaker 7: Let's go!
[2:00:53] Speaker 1: Let's go!
[2:00:54] Speaker 5: Let's sit straight. They saw each other, they said, we
[2:00:56] Speaker 5: are best friends. This is not the same.
[2:00:58] Speaker 1: This is not the same.
[2:01:00] Speaker 5: Let's go!
[2:01:00] Speaker 1: What's up, twin? What's up, twin?
[2:01:02] Speaker 4: What's up, twin?
[2:01:05] Speaker 5: Mine is black. Mine is black. Mine is black. Oh, okay.
[2:01:09] Speaker 5: Mine is black. Yours is black. Yours is black. That's
[2:01:12] Speaker 5: the last one, sir. That's black.
[2:01:13] Speaker 3: That's black.
[2:01:14] Speaker 5: That's black.
[2:01:16] Speaker 1: So before we move on, we asked the chat, did J.J.
[2:01:18] Speaker 1: Reddick put Bronnie in a bad spot last night?
[2:01:20] Speaker 2: Nearly 4,000 votes, 71% said yes. We also asked the chat,
[2:01:24] Speaker 2: are all turnovers bad? 58% said yes, 42% said no.
[2:01:27] Speaker 2: I don't know what the fuck they're talking about.
[2:01:30] Speaker 5: And for last but not least. Yes, chat.
[2:01:33] Speaker 1: Yes, chat.
[2:01:33] Speaker 5: Last but not least, Cheryl. I don't know what the
[2:01:36] Speaker 5: fuck they're talking about.
[2:01:38] Speaker 1: I don't know what the fuck they're talking about.
[2:01:41] Speaker 5: I don't know what the fuck they're talking about. I
[2:01:43] Speaker 5: don't know what the fuck they're talking about. I don't
[2:01:45] Speaker 5: know what the fuck they're talking about. I don't know
[2:01:47] Speaker 5: what the fuck they're talking about. I don't know what
[2:01:50] Speaker 5: the fuck they're talking about. I don't know what the
[2:01:52] Speaker 5: fuck they're talking about. Because she's a scorer, let's put
[2:01:57] Speaker 5: it in a scoring term. I got the ball.
[2:02:00] Speaker 1: There's one second left. I give it to you, the bomb,
[2:02:03] Speaker 1: and you shoot it.
[2:02:04] Speaker 7: I'm not going to catch it with one second left.
[2:02:07] Speaker 1: If you're playing with Chris Paul, you will.
[2:02:11] Speaker 4: No, I'm not going to catch it.
[2:02:12] Speaker 6: Is that shot considered a bad shot?
[2:02:15] Speaker 4: I'm not going to catch it. So that's going to
[2:02:17] Speaker 4: be your turnover.
[2:02:18] Speaker 5: Is that a bad shot? That's going to be your turnover.
[2:02:21] Speaker 7: If you're going to keep it that long, you got
[2:02:23] Speaker 7: to shoot it.
[2:02:24] Speaker 1: But if I gave it to you, because you know
[2:02:25] Speaker 1: that happens and some.
[2:02:26] Speaker 5: People get bad shots. But we don't call that bad shots, right?
[2:02:29] Speaker 5: It is a bad shot.
[2:02:32] Speaker 4: That's not a bad shot.
[2:02:33] Speaker 7: That is my point guard putting me in.
[2:02:35] Speaker 5: A bad position.
[2:02:36] Speaker 1: I had a teammate tell Chris Paul, no, I can't
[2:02:38] Speaker 1: make those.
[2:02:39] Speaker 4: No, I hate that shit.
[2:02:40] Speaker 1: So therefore, listen, I had to score a teammate. Chris
[2:02:44] Speaker 1: Paul with that manipulator. I'm finna get this assist every possession. No,
[2:02:48] Speaker 1: I can't make those.
[2:02:50] Speaker 5: Don't give me those, though. Right? No, but I know
[2:02:51] Speaker 5: what you're saying.
[2:02:52] Speaker 4: I never pass the two.
[2:02:54] Speaker 5: I'm taking that shot.
[2:02:55] Speaker 7: You can't keep the ball and dribble, dribble, dribble, and
[2:02:58] Speaker 7: then it's two seconds on the shot clock and then
[2:03:00] Speaker 7: you want to give it to me.
[2:03:01] Speaker 5: Oh, that's what it is.
[2:03:02] Speaker 4: Yeah.
[2:03:02] Speaker 5: Because I'm not going to catch it.
[2:03:04] Speaker 1: So that's manipulating the game.
[2:03:05] Speaker 4: I don't think he does it all the time.
[2:03:07] Speaker 5: Who?
[2:03:09] Speaker 1: That's what you asked me.
[2:03:10] Speaker 5: I don't. I don't think he does it all the time.
[2:03:13] Speaker 6: He'll have 11 assists.
[2:03:14] Speaker 1: The total team is 14. Right, so there was no
[2:03:19] Speaker 1: hockey assist. That's all that was. So, before we move on,
[2:03:22] Speaker 1: we have one more question. What's wrong with that?
[2:03:24] Speaker 5: That's a direct assist leading straight to points. What's the
[2:03:28] Speaker 5: alternative to that?
[2:03:29] Speaker 3: Shot.
[2:03:30] Speaker 5: You were shooting. Shot. But it's going to this guy
[2:03:33] Speaker 5: and it's going in. It's an assist.
[2:03:35] Speaker 3: You were shooting guard.
[2:03:36] Speaker 5: Hold on. How does that make sense that there's supposed
[2:03:39] Speaker 5: to be another alternative from him not getting a turnover
[2:03:42] Speaker 5: and passing to a guy who's making a shot?
[2:03:45] Speaker 3: Because shot? Because when you, you, you.
[2:03:47] Speaker 5: I don't know, like, I don't know why you have
[2:03:49] Speaker 5: to change it, though. Because when the Golden State Warriors
[2:03:51] Speaker 5: was winning, you know, because you know when the Golden
[2:03:53] Speaker 5: State Warriors was winning.
[2:03:54] Speaker 1: And when they was at their peak, you know what
[2:03:56] Speaker 1: I mean, since they was averaging tonight? 25. 29.
[2:03:57] Speaker 5: Mm. Mm-mm-mm.
[2:04:01] Speaker 1: 29.
[2:04:02] Speaker 5: Shot, but.
[2:04:03] Speaker 3: Because he's a scorer, he's not.
[2:04:03] Speaker 1: So the ball is moving. He's not playing with a
[2:04:06] Speaker 1: point guard like that. That would irritate the... There's no grenade.
[2:04:08] Speaker 1: I've played with Raymond Milton. That's not the same.
[2:04:11] Speaker 5: There's nobody manipulating the game.
[2:04:12] Speaker 4: Are you saying that Chris Paul is the only player
[2:04:15] Speaker 4: that does that?
[2:04:15] Speaker 1: James Harden? James Harden.
[2:04:18] Speaker 5: Not as bad.
[2:04:19] Speaker 3: Not as bad. Not as bad. So playing like this, Paul,
[2:04:22] Speaker 3: is a bad thing?
[2:04:22] Speaker 5: Tyrese Hollenberg. Tyrese Hollenberg. But they play fast. Not as bad.
[2:04:25] Speaker 1: But they play fast. Tyrese Hollenberg play fast. There's a
[2:04:28] Speaker 1: lot of kick-ups and shit like that. But in the
[2:04:30] Speaker 1: half court, it's going to be an assist and low turnover. Right?
[2:04:34] Speaker 5: Yeah.
[2:04:34] Speaker 3: Is he playing the right way?
[2:04:35] Speaker 5: No, no. I'm not saying that. It depends on who
[2:04:38] Speaker 5: you are as a player.
[2:04:38] Speaker 1: I'm not saying he's not.
[2:04:40] Speaker 5: I'm not saying he's not. Because Paul is one of
[2:04:42] Speaker 5: the best point guards ever.
[2:04:43] Speaker 1: I'm giving him his credit.
[2:04:45] Speaker 5: But.
[2:04:46] Speaker 1: there is a way that I would prefer my point
[2:04:49] Speaker 1: guard get off of it and not get off.
[2:04:52] Speaker 5: That's just... So you have another way more efficient than
[2:04:56] Speaker 5: Chris Paul?
[2:04:58] Speaker 3: Depending on who you are.
[2:04:59] Speaker 5: What I'm saying is, no, I'm asking a simple question.
[2:05:01] Speaker 5: If you don't prefer Chris Paul... I played on a
[2:05:04] Speaker 5: team with all three of them. J. Kidd, Andre Miller,
[2:05:11] Speaker 5: Chris Paul, Chauncey Billups....
[2:05:16] Speaker 3: Give me them three firsts. Before Chris.
[2:05:18] Speaker 1: Yes. You got to think about what he is, though. Shadi,
[2:05:22] Speaker 1: you're going to pick the same two.
[2:05:23] Speaker 5: No, I'm not.
[2:05:23] Speaker 1: Yes, you are.
[2:05:24] Speaker 5: If I'm Kenyon Martin, I'm going with Chris Paul because
[2:05:27] Speaker 5: he's throwing me the ball the most. He is live city.
[2:05:30] Speaker 5: That's all he does.
[2:05:31] Speaker 1: After a certain moment, that's not all he does.
[2:05:32] Speaker 5: Even for Jason Kidd, he wants to throw to everybody.
[2:05:36] Speaker 5: But this motherfucker, Chris Paul, is going to throw to
[2:05:39] Speaker 5: the motherfucker who can jump the highest.
[2:05:40] Speaker 1: But what I'm saying is... Tyson Chandler. I got a question.
[2:05:43] Speaker 5: All the guys he's played with, he threw the ball
[2:05:45] Speaker 5: to them. No, but I have a question. So you
[2:05:47] Speaker 5: want to.
[2:05:47] Speaker 1: I have a question, Rashad.
[2:05:48] Speaker 3: I have a question.
[2:05:49] Speaker 1: So what did I say when I made the statement
[2:05:51] Speaker 1: about those three guys? What did I say? Who played
[2:05:55] Speaker 1: on the team with them? I fucking said I did,
[2:05:59] Speaker 1: didn't I?
[2:05:59] Speaker 4: You did.
[2:06:00] Speaker 1: Didn't I say I fucking played with him? So how
[2:06:02] Speaker 1: the fuck do you know better than motherfucking me when
[2:06:05] Speaker 1: I played on the team with him?
[2:06:06] Speaker 5: I don't. You should have just had the conversation by yourself.
[2:06:09] Speaker 1: How can you?
[2:06:10] Speaker 5: You should have just had the conversation by yourself. How
[2:06:11] Speaker 5: can you know better? What the fuck is we even
[2:06:13] Speaker 5: just listening to you talk? What do we do? What
[2:06:15] Speaker 5: do we do?
[2:06:15] Speaker 1: What the fuck do we do? We're watching from the outside.
[2:06:18] Speaker 5: I'm just saying, what the fuck? We're talking about Chris Paul.
[2:06:22] Speaker 5: But look, Chris Paul's expertise. I played with Chris Paul
[2:06:24] Speaker 5: in 19 under.
[2:06:25] Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying?
[2:06:26] Speaker 4: His expertise.
[2:06:26] Speaker 9: In what?
[2:06:27] Speaker 4: I know how he plays.
[2:06:28] Speaker 5: In the what? He's actually my little, he's my little homie.
[2:06:31] Speaker 1: I watched him play.
[2:06:32] Speaker 5: He's from North Carolina.
[2:06:33] Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying? And I play it in
[2:06:35] Speaker 1: the pros what we're talking about here. His expertise is
[2:06:38] Speaker 1: controlling the game.
[2:06:40] Speaker 9: Right?
[2:06:40] Speaker 1: So the last five minutes of the game were very important.
[2:06:43] Speaker 1: He's going to hold the ball 24 seconds.
[2:06:45] Speaker 5: I'm with you. He's going to get a great shot
[2:06:47] Speaker 5: every time. No turnover. I'm with you.
[2:06:49] Speaker 1: And is that it? No, no, no.
[2:06:50] Speaker 5: That's called execution.
[2:06:52] Speaker 1: Execution. He is not going to like him because he
[2:06:56] Speaker 1: won't get the ball.
[2:06:57] Speaker 5: I'm not a team player. I'm going to hate my
[2:07:03] Speaker 5: point guard because I don't get the ball. What are
[2:07:06] Speaker 5: you talking about, bro? Don't put my name in any
[2:07:10] Speaker 5: kind of negative scenario like you know how I'm going
[2:07:13] Speaker 5: to react to some shit, bro.
[2:07:15] Speaker 1: I'm a fucking winner, bro.
[2:07:16] Speaker 5: I know how you play the game. You don't know nothing.
[2:07:19] Speaker 5: You ain't never watched me, bro.
[2:07:22] Speaker 1: You never watched me.
[2:07:23] Speaker 5: You didn't like Raymond Felton. He passed the ball forward.
[2:07:26] Speaker 5: You never watched me, bro. You didn't even watch me
[2:07:28] Speaker 5: until I got on the show. You ain't watch highlights, nigga.
[2:07:31] Speaker 5: You ain't never watched me, bro. You never knew nothing
[2:07:33] Speaker 5: about me until Tim mentioned my name. It was like, oh, yeah,
[2:07:37] Speaker 5: I see him at the gym. Yeah, man, talk to him, man. Cool.
[2:07:40] Speaker 5: You don't know nothing about my game. You knew.
[2:07:42] Speaker 1: You would know.
[2:07:43] Speaker 5: Man, I'm not the nigga you fuck with. I really
[2:07:45] Speaker 5: do this shit.
[2:07:46] Speaker 1: Raymond Felton passed the ball more. You didn't like his
[2:07:51] Speaker 1: style because he didn't get you the ball fast enough.
[2:07:54] Speaker 5: I averaged 20 a game.
[2:07:55] Speaker 1: What are you talking about?
[2:07:58] Speaker 5: He averaged 10 assists a game. and I averaged 20.
[2:08:01] Speaker 5: Sean may average 10 rebounds. You know what our jobs was?
[2:08:05] Speaker 5: I'm the scorer. You pass it to me, and if
[2:08:08] Speaker 5: I miss, nigga, you rebound. What the fuck is these
[2:08:13] Speaker 5: niggas talking about, bro? Man, he don't know who he's
[2:08:15] Speaker 5: talking to, man.
[2:08:16] Speaker 1: Before we move on, before we move on, and who.
[2:08:19] Speaker 5: Is your favorite point guard?
[2:08:20] Speaker 1: What are you talking about, man?
[2:08:21] Speaker 3: Who is your favorite point guard?
[2:08:23] Speaker 5: He did Raymond Feld say was top three all time
[2:08:25] Speaker 5: to him. He said, man, I played with all them dudes.
[2:08:28] Speaker 5: You know who's a bad motherfucker?
[2:08:30] Speaker 1: Him.
[2:08:31] Speaker 5: Now I want to hear what you say. Who's your
[2:08:33] Speaker 5: best point guard? I said Raymond Feld is in my
[2:08:34] Speaker 5: top five Carolina all time. No, no, no, no, no.
[2:08:37] Speaker 5: Who is your best point guard?
[2:08:39] Speaker 3: Here's the question.
[2:08:41] Speaker 1: You said he averaged 10 assists. He gave you the ball.
[2:08:43] Speaker 1: Who is your top point guard? Because five minutes ago,
[2:08:47] Speaker 1: you said you didn't like.
[2:08:48] Speaker 3: So I want to hear you say... I didn't like who?
[2:08:50] Speaker 5: Who is your favorite point guard?
[2:08:51] Speaker 3: 10 minutes, I said I didn't like what? Who is
[2:08:52] Speaker 3: your favorite point guard? I don't have one.
[2:08:58] Speaker 5: So we asked the chat.
[2:09:00] Speaker 1: Is it obvious?
[2:09:01] Speaker 5: We asked the chat, is it obvious? Every time he
[2:09:02] Speaker 5: falls into the bear trap. We asked the chat.
[2:09:04] Speaker 1: If a guy who has 10 assists give you the ball,
[2:09:06] Speaker 1: he ain't even in your favor.
[2:09:07] Speaker 3: No, he ain't in my favor.
[2:09:08] Speaker 1: He didn't give you the ball the way you want
[2:09:10] Speaker 1: him to.
[2:09:10] Speaker 3: Nah, man, because he's trying to fuck my word.
[2:09:12] Speaker 5: We asked the chat, is it obvious?
[2:09:14] Speaker 1: It's obvious.
[2:09:16] Speaker 5: 80% say yes. Let's keep it moving. How many?
[2:09:18] Speaker 3: 80%.
[2:09:18] Speaker 5: 80%.

[2:09:20] Speaker 5: Move it up to 80%. With New Year's resolutions. We
[2:09:23] Speaker 5: don't know. With New Year's resolutions, many of us.

[2:13:27] Speaker 5: I don't know that word. Oh, my God. I don't

[2:13:34] Speaker 5: See you next game.
[2:13:35] Speaker 1: I've been here every day.
[2:13:36] Speaker 4: It was good.
[2:13:37] Speaker 2: Have a good day off. I'm feeling the Rona coming
[2:13:40] Speaker 2: on now. I'm going to let y'all handle it yourselves.
[2:13:42] Speaker 5: Y'all read all these big-ass words. We just won't have
[2:13:45] Speaker 5: no ad reads.
[2:13:45] Speaker 3: I can tell you that.
[2:13:46] Speaker 1: They'll be commercial. That's all you just ate. They'll all
[2:13:50] Speaker 1: be commercial.
[2:13:51] Speaker 5: I know when you get in the game and we're
[2:13:53] Speaker 5: not cheating. That's all. You leave it up to certain people.
[2:13:57] Speaker 5: What a wizards.
[2:13:58] Speaker 3: What a wizards.
[2:13:58] Speaker 1: That was a long read.
[2:14:00] Speaker 5: You're fucking up on the show, man.
[2:14:02] Speaker 3: I do fuck up.
[2:14:02] Speaker 1: That was a long read, though.
[2:14:05] Speaker 3: I can play as fuck, though.
[2:14:06] Speaker 5: It was, wasn't it?
[2:14:09] Speaker 2: Y'all are so sweet. Underdog knows I have a one
[2:14:15] Speaker 2: read limit. They gave me two. I was not ready.
[2:14:18] Speaker 5: Y'all must be on the Josiah payroll.
[2:14:21] Speaker 4: Oh, my God.
[2:14:23] Speaker 5: You see how I got it? That's what it is.
[2:14:27] Speaker 3: That's what it is. All of a sudden, he's getting
[2:14:30] Speaker 3: claps and shit.
[2:14:32] Speaker 7: Who the fuck.
[2:14:32] Speaker 1: You paying over there?
[2:14:35] Speaker 5: Merely a host. Merely a host.
[2:14:36] Speaker 2: Soon to be a movie star, as you guys already know.
[2:14:38] Speaker 2: But let's wrap this show up with one more topic. So,
[2:14:41] Speaker 2: Joel Embiid misses 12 straight games while dealing with knee swelling.
[2:14:44] Speaker 2: Only appeared in 13 games this season. During the game,
[2:14:46] Speaker 2: TNT ran a graphic highlighting the injury issues Embiid has
[2:14:49] Speaker 2: dealt with throughout his career. Let us take a look.
[2:14:54] Speaker 2: The former MVP has played in 446 games of a
[2:14:56] Speaker 2: possible 400.
[2:14:56] Speaker 1: Wow.
[2:14:59] Speaker 5: Or 846 games.
[2:15:00] Speaker 2: You got me fucking up all show. Of a possible
[2:15:04] Speaker 2: 846 games. Missing a total of 47% of games he
[2:15:08] Speaker 2: could have played in. But let's look at the positive.
[2:15:11] Speaker 2: Despite this, Embiid, MVP, seven-time All-Star, five-time All-NBA selection, two-time
[2:15:17] Speaker 2: All-Defensive selection, two-time scoring champ. Embiid is still only 30
[2:15:21] Speaker 2: years old, but things don't appear to be trending in
[2:15:23] Speaker 2: the right direction. We talked about Kawhi recently and all
[2:15:27] Speaker 2: the injuries he's dealt with, the games he's missed. Is
[2:15:29] Speaker 2: Joel Embiid one of the biggest what-ifs in NBA history?
[2:15:33] Speaker 2: Which sounds crazy to ask, but looking at that graphic,
[2:15:36] Speaker 2: missed 47% of the possible games he could have played.
[2:15:41] Speaker 2: And Underdog put up a stat too. He's made like
[2:15:43] Speaker 2: $ 120- something million off of those games that he's missed. So
[2:15:46] Speaker 2: shout-out PTO.
[2:15:47] Speaker 6: Wow.
[2:15:48] Speaker 5: I would love to say he.
[2:15:51] Speaker 1: Is, but we've seen him at his– You're right. We
[2:15:57] Speaker 1: didn't see him at the top, but we've seen him
[2:15:59] Speaker 1: going up. We've seen him going up, right? And what
[2:16:03] Speaker 1: we've seen was some great shit, right? He dominated, right?
[2:16:06] Speaker 1: So I can't give him the title of the what if.
[2:16:10] Speaker 5: It's going to always be Derrick Rose.
[2:16:13] Speaker 1: The youngest MVP.
[2:16:15] Speaker 6: He's not even in no prime year. He's not even
[2:16:20] Speaker 6: close to prime.
[2:16:21] Speaker 5: He is a beginner. and he won MVP, that's going.
[2:16:25] Speaker 1: To be always the biggest what if. Like, what the
[2:16:29] Speaker 1: fuck was this dude going to be doing if this
[2:16:32] Speaker 1: is what he was doing this early? I don't think
[2:16:43] Speaker 1: you did your best on that take. Appreciate it. Appreciate it.
[2:16:49] Speaker 5: Appreciate it.
[2:16:50] Speaker 1: I don't think you did for better.
[2:16:53] Speaker 5: I didn't feel it. You didn't care what he said.
[2:16:55] Speaker 3: I didn't feel it.
[2:16:56] Speaker 1: You didn't care what he said. It didn't matter what
[2:17:00] Speaker 1: the fuck he said.
[2:17:00] Speaker 5: He was waiting. He was waiting for that.
[2:17:03] Speaker 1: You should have done better than that. That ain't your best.
[2:17:05] Speaker 1: Y'all know I'm light-skinned. Y'all will take this to the grave.
[2:17:08] Speaker 1: His energy is eternal, but in all sincerity. One of.
[2:17:12] Speaker 1: Can't say who is the biggest what if.
[2:17:14] Speaker 5: 446 out of 846.
[2:17:15] Speaker 3: One of the.
[2:17:18] Speaker 1: That's a lot of games. Five seasons, almost five seasons
[2:17:22] Speaker 1: worth of missed games.
[2:17:23] Speaker 3: Yeah, that's a lot, bro.
[2:17:24] Speaker 1: What's your name? No.
[2:17:26] Speaker 3: Him too?
[2:17:27] Speaker 1: That's a lot of games missed, man.
[2:17:29] Speaker 5: Oh, God.
[2:17:29] Speaker 3: What's it say?
[2:17:33] Speaker 1: You know how impactful you got to be, though, to
[2:17:36] Speaker 1: miss this many games and still be relevant?
[2:17:38] Speaker 8: Right?
[2:17:39] Speaker 3: Like, I'm just saying, you know what I mean?
[2:17:41] Speaker 1: Just, you still, like, you're still, like, most people who
[2:17:44] Speaker 1: got injured, you, you, nobody remembers. You, like, you, you
[2:17:47] Speaker 1: out of there.
[2:17:47] Speaker 3: You know why?
[2:17:48] Speaker 5: Because the team... gives up on them before they can
[2:17:51] Speaker 5: get the chance.
[2:17:52] Speaker 3: Oh, back then?
[2:17:53] Speaker 5: You can't get a second, third, fourth, fifth chance. And
[2:17:56] Speaker 5: B been there for trusting the process because we got
[2:17:59] Speaker 5: a big fella who showed us he could be Akeem Olajuwon.
[2:18:02] Speaker 1: Right?
[2:18:02] Speaker 5: So let's sit around, let's figure out how we can
[2:18:04] Speaker 5: get this process going. And then we see glimpses of
[2:18:07] Speaker 5: him being great, and we're like, all right, cool. We
[2:18:11] Speaker 5: can build around this, but then he's injured, he's not,
[2:18:14] Speaker 5: he's injured, he's not. You can't, I mean, it ain't
[2:18:17] Speaker 5: no knock against him, but when you injury-prone, which we
[2:18:20] Speaker 5: don't like to say that word, it's like, how do
[2:18:25] Speaker 5: you manage your investments? How do you manage who to
[2:18:29] Speaker 5: pick up, who not? You know what I'm saying? Like,
[2:18:33] Speaker 5: $ 125 million of my money went without you even seeing
[2:18:35] Speaker 5: the flow. You can't get that back.
[2:18:39] Speaker 1: And....
[2:18:41] Speaker 6: I can see why he signed that deal. You remember
[2:18:43] Speaker 6: we was questioning that motherfucker like, wait, hold on. You
[2:18:46] Speaker 6: damn near did that. The MVP was yours last year
[2:18:48] Speaker 6: if you just last 64 games.
[2:18:50] Speaker 5: And he signed that deal and you're like, oh, we
[2:18:53] Speaker 5: knew why.
[2:18:54] Speaker 6: I just, I just think it's, since they haven't found
[2:18:58] Speaker 6: no solution for what, the bone on bone, the general,
[2:19:03] Speaker 6: I mean.
[2:19:03] Speaker 3: Yeah.
[2:19:05] Speaker 1: I think that's what it is right now. Yeah, but,
[2:19:08] Speaker 1: damn the surgeries and all that. He ain't did the work.
[2:19:14] Speaker 1: He hasn't did the work on the extremities that he's
[2:19:18] Speaker 1: had worked on, right? If there's knee issues, you need
[2:19:22] Speaker 1: to work on it. I can speak on this because....
[2:19:27] Speaker 6: And I'm on the other side.
[2:19:30] Speaker 1: Two microfracture surgeries, patella surgery. Like, I didn't been there, right?
[2:19:35] Speaker 1: Major knee surgeries, missed time, missed whole season. Played the
[2:19:38] Speaker 1: first two games, had to miss the whole 80 games,
[2:19:41] Speaker 1: play all that shit, been there, done that.
[2:19:43] Speaker 3: Played after.
[2:19:45] Speaker 1: Because it was important to me. Me being on that
[2:19:49] Speaker 1: floor was important to me. Right? It's not important enough
[2:19:54] Speaker 1: to him. Because he's not doing the extra stuff. He's
[2:19:57] Speaker 1: not doing the rehab.
[2:19:58] Speaker 4: He's not putting the extra time in.
[2:20:00] Speaker 1: He's not doing that, like I said, I told him
[2:20:03] Speaker 1: I did that CPM machine at least eight hours a day.
[2:20:08] Speaker 1: I'm sleeping in it. So I'm doing the stuff in
[2:20:13] Speaker 1: order to get back on the floor because that shit
[2:20:14] Speaker 1: meant something to me. I don't think it means enough.
[2:20:17] Speaker 1: He's getting paid either way it goes, so he's like,
[2:20:19] Speaker 1: fuck it.
[2:20:24] Speaker 3: Right?
[2:20:24] Speaker 1: It has to mean something, right? You have to be
[2:20:27] Speaker 1: passionate about this shit in order to keep on to
[2:20:29] Speaker 1: do it and have longevity in it. I didn't play
[2:20:32] Speaker 1: 15 years because I got my first micro fracture surgery
[2:20:36] Speaker 1: in 06, 07. I played till 2015, man. Way after that.
[2:20:41] Speaker 1: Because I put the time in.
[2:20:42] Speaker 6: Now, since I'm on the opposite side, I'm on the
[2:20:45] Speaker 6: Embiid side.
[2:20:46] Speaker 5: You know what I mean?
[2:20:47] Speaker 1: So, like, what was your, like, what was your mindset?
[2:20:52] Speaker 6: Like, you want to get back on the floor, so
[2:20:55] Speaker 6: you're just going to.
[2:20:56] Speaker 1: Yeah, I want to play. Like, I want to play, dog.
[2:21:00] Speaker 1: I'm passionate about this. Like, I couldn't go to the games, dog. Like,
[2:21:05] Speaker 1: when I was out that season, I didn't go to
[2:21:07] Speaker 1: the games. Like, watching y'all out there hoop and play,
[2:21:12] Speaker 1: I'm sick. Like, it bothers me that I can't compete. Like, dog,
[2:21:19] Speaker 1: my last year, go ask my wife, dog, I was
[2:21:22] Speaker 1: difficult to live with when I'm not playing, dog. During
[2:21:27] Speaker 1: my career and after them first couple years, I was
[2:21:31] Speaker 1: thankful for the big three. Wow. grateful to motherfucking be
[2:21:36] Speaker 1: a three-on-three. Let's go hoop.
[2:21:38] Speaker 5: Give a fuck what it was. $ 10, 000 a week.
[2:21:42] Speaker 1: I just came from making motherfucking $ 16 million last year.
[2:21:45] Speaker 1: You want to pay me 10 grand a week? It
[2:21:48] Speaker 1: ain't about the fucking money. This shit don't mean enough
[2:21:52] Speaker 1: to him. And it has to. If you want to
[2:21:57] Speaker 1: keep fucking playing this game, it has to mean something
[2:22:00] Speaker 1: to this dude, man. And from what I'm gathering, words
[2:22:04] Speaker 1: don't mean, can't nobody get to him, so it's, it
[2:22:08] Speaker 1: has to be internal. You have to show up and
[2:22:11] Speaker 1: do this shit daily, dog. You got to put yourself
[2:22:15] Speaker 1: through this. I went through that rehab shit. I struggled.
[2:22:17] Speaker 1: I set that motherfucking tears.
[2:22:20] Speaker 5: Right?
[2:22:21] Speaker 1: I did all that shit because I wanted to motherfucking play.
[2:22:26] Speaker 5: Many restrictions. Hate it.
[2:22:28] Speaker 1: I did the shit because I saw a light at
[2:22:31] Speaker 1: the end of the fucking tunnel I wouldn't go.
[2:22:34] Speaker 5: Let this beat me.
[2:22:38] Speaker 1: Right? I got this way from doing what? Playing basketball.
[2:22:43] Speaker 1: I didn't have to have microfracture surgery because I was
[2:22:47] Speaker 1: sitting on the fucking couch.
[2:22:48] Speaker 5: No.
[2:22:49] Speaker 1: I played this game a certain way. I earned this shit.
[2:22:51] Speaker 1: So guess what? I earned whatever injuries I had, I
[2:22:54] Speaker 1: earned them. So I'm going to work my ass off
[2:22:57] Speaker 1: to get past this. He's a hell of a talent.
[2:23:02] Speaker 1: But when that talent don't work, we know what the
[2:23:08] Speaker 1: saying go, dawg.
[2:23:10] Speaker 5: Come on, man.
[2:23:10] Speaker 1: Like, it is what it is.
[2:23:13] Speaker 5: Preach. Trust me.
[2:23:17] Speaker 4: No, it's fact.
[2:23:17] Speaker 5: Trust me, I didn't take mine serious. I've been there, dawg.
[2:23:19] Speaker 1: And my career ended. I've been there, man. Like, two
[2:23:23] Speaker 1: micro-facts are serious. I had my patella put back together.
[2:23:26] Speaker 1: That man came in the recovery room and told me, son,
[2:23:30] Speaker 1: you some kind of tough. Because there's no way you
[2:23:33] Speaker 1: should have been playing professional basketball with your knee the
[2:23:35] Speaker 1: way it look. Didn't know it until he opened me up. So, dude,
[2:23:43] Speaker 1: come on, man. I added racks in my car so
[2:23:47] Speaker 1: I couldn't sit like this. My left knee, I couldn't
[2:23:50] Speaker 1: sit like this for longer than like two minutes. Fucking
[2:23:53] Speaker 1: knee would flare up. It's my left knee. You don't
[2:23:56] Speaker 1: drive this motherfucker, so it ain't straight.
[2:23:57] Speaker 5: Right.
[2:23:59] Speaker 1: So every car I ever had when I was a devil,
[2:24:01] Speaker 1: I added extra racks in my car so I could
[2:24:03] Speaker 1: sit in my fucking car like this. I paid extra
[2:24:06] Speaker 1: money so I could be comfortable sitting in every car
[2:24:08] Speaker 1: I had so I could be in that bitch just
[2:24:09] Speaker 1: like this. Because I couldn't sit like this. In the
[2:24:14] Speaker 1: car service, we're in the car service. I sit behind
[2:24:16] Speaker 1: the passenger side so I can put that seat back. No,
[2:24:19] Speaker 1: I need to put my leg through. I used to
[2:24:21] Speaker 1: tell every driver I was in a car with, no disrespect, man,
[2:24:24] Speaker 1: but I can't have my leg bent for long, man.
[2:24:27] Speaker 1: I got to straighten this thing out, dawg. But I'm
[2:24:32] Speaker 1: trying to get, I'm trying to hoop. It has to

[2:25:11] Speaker 1: We got a video question from Underdog User, one of
[2:25:14] Speaker 1: our favorites.
[2:25:14] Speaker 3: Big tone, never wrong.
[2:25:17] Speaker 4: Yeah, big tone.
[2:25:19] Speaker 1: What up, Gills Arena?
[2:25:20] Speaker 8: The question I got for y'all today is, throughout all
[2:25:23] Speaker 8: of NBA history, what do y'all think was the hardest
[2:25:25] Speaker 8: position to play? I'm leaning towards the point guard and
[2:25:28] Speaker 8: the power forward position just because of the names attached
[2:25:30] Speaker 8: to it. But in y'all opinion, which one y'all think
[2:25:32] Speaker 8: is the hardest to play?
[2:25:34] Speaker 5: Love the show. Peace.
[2:25:35] Speaker 3: You got glitter on the sweatshirt.
[2:25:37] Speaker 5: You got masked up.
[2:25:39] Speaker 1: Is this over you?
[2:25:43] Speaker 6: What?
[2:25:44] Speaker 5: Is it COVID? No.
[2:25:46] Speaker 1: Oh, that's the fire? You think?
[2:25:49] Speaker 3: I don't know where he's at.
[2:25:50] Speaker 1: What did you say? Could just be a style choice.
[2:25:53] Speaker 1: There's the 2020, there's the COVID. Could just be running
[2:25:55] Speaker 1: up on people's spots.
[2:25:56] Speaker 5: Oh, it's cold, man.
[2:25:58] Speaker 4: I don't know.
[2:25:59] Speaker 5: All I'm looking is like, where is he at?
[2:26:01] Speaker 4: It's cold outside.
[2:26:03] Speaker 5: It is big tones.
[2:26:03] Speaker 3: It's never warm.
[2:26:04] Speaker 5: I don't know.
[2:26:05] Speaker 8: I don't know.
[2:26:05] Speaker 5: We're big tones.
[2:26:06] Speaker 3: That's the only thing I'm looking at like.
[2:26:07] Speaker 5: Don't make excuses for him. Where's the mask at?
[2:26:10] Speaker 1: It's just cold.
[2:26:11] Speaker 5: What are you doing? What are you doing? All right.
[2:26:15] Speaker 2: So, what is the hardest position to play in the NBA?
[2:26:19] Speaker 1: Back to the question.
[2:26:20] Speaker 5: Point guard. Point guard. The hardest position.
[2:26:25] Speaker 3: History.
[2:26:26] Speaker 5: Point guard. You don't think it's changed?
[2:26:29] Speaker 3: Center.
[2:26:31] Speaker 1: Why do you think center shot?
[2:26:32] Speaker 5: You got to depend on everybody else giving the ball.
[2:26:44] Speaker 5: I got to do all this other shit, and I
[2:26:46] Speaker 5: got to wait for you to throw me the ball
[2:26:47] Speaker 5: after I do all the hard work and defense and
[2:26:51] Speaker 5: talking and rebounding. Yeah, I feel sorry. Because then we
[2:26:55] Speaker 5: don't have to throw it to him.
[2:26:56] Speaker 3: We can literally.
[2:26:57] Speaker 1: I mean, one guy is more thinking. You got to
[2:27:03] Speaker 1: be smarter than everybody on the court. Knowing what everybody
[2:27:06] Speaker 1: wants to do, how they're going.
[2:27:08] Speaker 3: To do it.
[2:27:08] Speaker 5: Yeah.
[2:27:08] Speaker 1: Right, so.
[2:27:10] Speaker 7: You got to know all the plays, pretty much all
[2:27:12] Speaker 7: the positions, and what you're running.
[2:27:16] Speaker 5: Yeah.
[2:27:16] Speaker 6: I guess that depends on it.
[2:27:19] Speaker 3: You think which one is harder, the quarterback or the lineman?
[2:27:23] Speaker 5: Say it again.
[2:27:23] Speaker 3: Quarterback or the lineman in football? Which is the harder position?
[2:27:26] Speaker 4: I don't watch football.
[2:27:30] Speaker 3: You don't watch football?
[2:27:31] Speaker 4: Not like that.
[2:27:32] Speaker 5: Quarterback or the lineman?
[2:27:35] Speaker 4: I mean, the lineman has a tough job, though. You
[2:27:37] Speaker 4: said lineman?
[2:27:37] Speaker 1: The lineman is in the front?
[2:27:38] Speaker 4: They have a tough job. protecting the quarterback.
[2:27:41] Speaker 5: Mm-hmm.
[2:27:46] Speaker 7: I know people look at it and say the quarterback
[2:27:47] Speaker 7: does all the work, right?
[2:27:49] Speaker 5: Mm-hmm.
[2:27:50] Speaker 7: But if you don't have your lineman blocking for you
[2:27:52] Speaker 7: and protecting you, you can't.
[2:27:54] Speaker 5: It's like, yeah, you're only.
[2:27:55] Speaker 1: Good as your line.
[2:27:56] Speaker 5: You're only as good as your line. So, so, so,
[2:28:01] Speaker 5: so listen. When we talk about the line, right? We're
[2:28:03] Speaker 5: talking about the line. Look. It's like a bodyguard, right?
[2:28:07] Speaker 3: No. Like a bodyguard in the club.
[2:28:09] Speaker 5: No.
[2:28:10] Speaker 3: Better.
[2:28:11] Speaker 1: Make sure these, they don't get in me. Better. Huh?
[2:28:14] Speaker 5: No, not quite.
[2:28:15] Speaker 3: If they don't do their job, he gets sacked.
[2:28:17] Speaker 1: Because the guy in the middle, because the guy in
[2:28:18] Speaker 1: the middle tells the other guy, the other four guys
[2:28:20] Speaker 1: who to block.
[2:28:21] Speaker 3: The center, the center tell everybody everything.
[2:28:23] Speaker 7: So then maybe the center's job is more important.
[2:28:25] Speaker 4: Than the line.
[2:28:26] Speaker 5: Yes.
[2:28:27] Speaker 3: But he's a part of what?
[2:28:28] Speaker 5: The line.
[2:28:28] Speaker 4: The line.
[2:28:29] Speaker 1: Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
[2:28:31] Speaker 10: Hold on.
[2:28:31] Speaker 3: So we're saying the center.
[2:28:33] Speaker 1: It's not my sport, but God damn it, I don't
[2:28:35] Speaker 1: give a fuck how long you're blocking if I can't
[2:28:36] Speaker 1: throw the ball.
[2:28:37] Speaker 3: It goes both ways.
[2:28:39] Speaker 1: If I can't throw the ball, shit. It goes both ways.
[2:28:41] Speaker 4: But if they don't block, you ain't gonna ever be.
[2:28:43] Speaker 1: Able to throw the ball. You can't even get it.
[2:28:46] Speaker 3: You're going to be.
[2:28:47] Speaker 5: On your bike.
[2:28:47] Speaker 4: If they don't block, you're never going to be able
[2:28:49] Speaker 4: to do it.
[2:28:49] Speaker 1: I don't want to be in a position where a
[2:28:50] Speaker 1: motherfucker ought to hit me, any motherfucker.
[2:28:52] Speaker 7: Right, not for free.
[2:28:54] Speaker 1: Yeah, me sitting there, everybody.
[2:28:56] Speaker 5: Want the ball. But that's the point guard.
[2:28:58] Speaker 1: That's the only ball I don't want.
[2:29:00] Speaker 5: Point guard got to regulate who he get a ball to,
[2:29:02] Speaker 5: but then the big man got to be the one
[2:29:04] Speaker 5: where I got to figure out how to get him
[2:29:05] Speaker 5: open so I can.
[2:29:06] Speaker 3: Get the ball. That's real talk.
[2:29:11] Speaker 1: Yeah, man. Hey, you got to try to keep one
[2:29:16] Speaker 1: of them little motherfuckers in front of you.
[2:29:18] Speaker 5: That's a big difference, too.
[2:29:22] Speaker 1: You got to wear a mouthpiece your whole career.
[2:29:24] Speaker 5: You got to sit down there and wrestle, goddamn it.
[2:29:28] Speaker 3: That wrestling, all that wrestling?
[2:29:29] Speaker 5: You got to wrestle, yeah. I ain't trying to wrestle
[2:29:31] Speaker 5: you all over there.
[2:29:33] Speaker 1: Hey, one thing is I got my nose broke, and
[2:29:37] Speaker 1: that wasn't because I was trying to tip-dunk. So other
[2:29:41] Speaker 1: than that, I know how to bob and weave, Jack. Whoa,
[2:29:45] Speaker 1: that was close.
[2:29:46] Speaker 3: You got Zach leaning on you.
[2:29:48] Speaker 4: Whoa.
[2:29:49] Speaker 5: I didn't get him close a few times. Whoa.
[2:29:53] Speaker 6: I'm going to just tell you, just a guy who
[2:29:54] Speaker 6: ain't really played defense like that.
[2:29:55] Speaker 3: It ain't that hard.
[2:30:00] Speaker 5: I know how to scream. Head of your business, player.
[2:30:04] Speaker 5: I got Maxie today. Ah, switch.
[2:30:07] Speaker 7: I was going to ask you who was the toughest
[2:30:09] Speaker 7: player you had to guard, but you ain't really played defense,
[2:30:11] Speaker 7: so I ain't going to ask you that question.
[2:30:13] Speaker 1: Switch. I know how to switch. Switch.
[2:30:17] Speaker 5: And on that note.
[2:30:18] Speaker 7: Who's the toughest big man you played against?
[2:30:21] Speaker 3: Like, did I have to guard?
[2:30:22] Speaker 5: Yeah.
[2:30:22] Speaker 3: Or just big man, period?
[2:30:24] Speaker 4: But you had to guard.
[2:30:24] Speaker 3: Tim Duncan.
[2:30:28] Speaker 1: Yeah, see?
[2:30:29] Speaker 3: Yeah. See, then you got to.
[2:30:31] Speaker 1: If I'm guarding Allen Iverson, I can switch off of him.
[2:30:35] Speaker 6: You got to guard. Yeah, you can't switch off. That's
[2:30:37] Speaker 6: all you.
[2:30:37] Speaker 3: I don't want to switch off, neither.
[2:30:38] Speaker 5: And then if Tony Parker come down there, you still
[2:30:40] Speaker 5: got to block it.
[2:30:41] Speaker 3: And then you got to rebound. then you got to
[2:30:44] Speaker 3: pass it to me. You know, that kind of like.
[2:30:46] Speaker 5: Y'all.
[2:30:46] Speaker 1: Definitely, yeah, y'all definitely, yeah, fucking divas of the sport.
[2:30:54] Speaker 4: Yeah.
[2:30:55] Speaker 3: Toby.
[2:30:56] Speaker 1: Help me.
[2:30:58] Speaker 5: Yeah.
[2:30:59] Speaker 6: And I think, like, no, seriously, like, when you just
[2:31:02] Speaker 6: actually break it down, like, it has to be.
[2:31:04] Speaker 5: The big man.
[2:31:05] Speaker 1: Yeah.
[2:31:06] Speaker 3: What do you mean?
[2:31:08] Speaker 5: The toughest position?
[2:31:10] Speaker 1: I can delegate all my responsibility just by screaming help.
[2:31:15] Speaker 4: That is true.
[2:31:16] Speaker 5: And then blame him. Lazy ass.
[2:31:19] Speaker 7: No, because your lazy ass don't want to play defense.
[2:31:22] Speaker 8: Just move.
[2:31:23] Speaker 5: When you late?
[2:31:24] Speaker 1: When you late?
[2:31:25] Speaker 5: Why you late for? If I can't get by my guy, scream.
[2:31:30] Speaker 7: But you got to have a good big man back
[2:31:32] Speaker 7: there that can help.
[2:31:34] Speaker 3: Some screens in.
[2:31:35] Speaker 1: The back, like he got somebody like Marcus Banks guarding
[2:31:38] Speaker 1: if he want me to come set a screen in
[2:31:40] Speaker 1: the backcourt.
[2:31:40] Speaker 5: Come get him off me, yeah.
[2:31:41] Speaker 1: Come get him off me, then have Craig go.
[2:31:43] Speaker 4: Constantly talking to you.
[2:31:45] Speaker 6: I would agree with that.
[2:31:46] Speaker 3: I can delegate all my responsibilities.
[2:31:48] Speaker 5: It's a lot of work.
[2:31:48] Speaker 8: Yeah.
[2:31:49] Speaker 3: Especially if you're an athletic big man.
[2:31:51] Speaker 4: It's on both ends of the floor.
[2:31:52] Speaker 3: They're expecting you to do a whole lot more than you.
[2:31:54] Speaker 5: The man had been in possession.
[2:31:55] Speaker 1: I didn't go at all five people in one possession.
[2:31:57] Speaker 5: And then go off in one possession. I'll just stay
[2:32:02] Speaker 5: right in the middle.
[2:32:03] Speaker 3: That's the worst offense ever.
[2:32:04] Speaker 5: I'll stay right in the middle.
[2:32:05] Speaker 6: I would have got him paid max, brother. All the
[2:32:08] Speaker 6: people that was blowing by me, boy, you had a
[2:32:10] Speaker 6: lot of blocks.
[2:32:11] Speaker 7: Because then you go on offense and they may not
[2:32:13] Speaker 7: even give you the ball.
[2:32:14] Speaker 3: Yeah.
[2:32:15] Speaker 4: I just did all that shit on that end.
[2:32:17] Speaker 5: And then run all the way down and seal and
[2:32:19] Speaker 5: nobody get it. Yeah. Then you get the three-second call.
[2:32:22] Speaker 5: You're like, three seconds. They're like, God damn it. And
[2:32:25] Speaker 5: then you got the dudes doing it on purpose. They
[2:32:27] Speaker 5: out there looking like, nah, nah, nah.

[2:32:43] Speaker 5: middle of the paint. Say that, bitch. You ain't going
[2:32:45] Speaker 5: to call it? You ain't going to call it. I'm
[2:32:47] Speaker 5: yelling out three seconds. And then in the timeout, timeout,
[2:32:50] Speaker 5: he's going to cuss everybody out of the timeout.
[2:32:53] Speaker 1: Oh, my God.
[2:32:54] Speaker 5: I'm going to duck in, make sure they call three seconds.
[2:32:57] Speaker 1: Watch this fucking thing.
[2:32:59] Speaker 5: It's so true.
[2:33:00] Speaker 3: It's so true.
[2:33:01] Speaker 5: Because they do that all the time.
[2:33:02] Speaker 1: I'm looking right at you.
[2:33:05] Speaker 4: He's behind you.
