## Transcript

[0:00] Speaker 1: Let's shift over to Boston. Celtics had their preseason home
[0:03] Speaker 1: opener Saturday, giving fans their first look at the Jason
[0:07] Speaker 1: Tatum and Paul George duo. And the game just happened
[0:10] Speaker 1: to be against the Sixers with Jalen Brown making his
[0:12] Speaker 1: first trip back to Boston since the blockbuster trade this offseason.
[0:15] Speaker 1: Brown worked out on the court before the game. Jason
[0:19] Speaker 1: Tatum was also working out on the court before the game.
[0:21] Speaker 1: There was a video that surfaced of them both working
[0:23] Speaker 1: out on the court before the game, not acknowledging each other.
[0:27] Speaker 2: Neither here nor there, as people have speculated.
[0:29] Speaker 1: They could have dapped up in the tunnel, could have
[0:31] Speaker 1: dapped up wherever, but have not seen that video as
[0:35] Speaker 1: of yet, so do with that information what you will.
[0:37] Speaker 1: Jalen Brown also didn't watch the game on the court.
[0:39] Speaker 1: He opted to watch from the locker room as Tatum
[0:42] Speaker 1: and PG literally teamed up for the first time as
[0:45] Speaker 1: Celtics giving the hometown crowd a preview of what's in
[0:48] Speaker 1: store this season.
[0:50] Speaker 2: Let's take a look at the highlights if we can.
[0:52] Speaker 1: Tatum looked great in his first preseason action against the
[0:55] Speaker 1: short-handed Sixers squad. Playing a 10-high, 27 minutes, leading Boston
[1:00] Speaker 1: with 23 points on 9 of 19 shooting while going
[1:04] Speaker 1: 4 for 10 from distance with plays like this. Lyski,
[1:10] Speaker 1: the excellence, is back in Boston, ladies and gentlemen. Also
[1:13] Speaker 1: had 5 rebounds, 4 assists, and a steal while getting
[1:16] Speaker 1: buckets at all 3 levels. While PG had a well-rounded
[1:21] Speaker 1: game as well. He had 13 points, 5 rebounds, 4 assists,
[1:24] Speaker 1: and 5 steals in the game. 4 of those steals
[1:26] Speaker 1: coming tonight. In the first half of action, like I said,
[1:32] Speaker 1: Jalen Brown didn't play. Embiid didn't play. LeBron, Ramon James Sr.
[1:37] Speaker 1: did not play. Short-handed sixer squad.
[1:39] Speaker 3: Oh, party time.
[1:41] Speaker 2: Celtics put belt to ass in that game.
[1:44] Speaker 1: Celtics had 16 steals as a team, shot 52% from
[1:45] Speaker 1: the field, 46% from behind the arc.
[1:47] Speaker 2: 22 threes in the game. Oh, oh, oh.
[1:59] Speaker 4: My God.
[2:00] Speaker 2: That is B.J. Ashcomb.
[2:01] Speaker 4: That's a mean hand.
[2:02] Speaker 2: That's it.
[2:04] Speaker 1: Celtics hit 22 threes. Crews to the 38-point win. They
[2:10] Speaker 1: put up 144 points in the game.
[2:13] Speaker 2: Look at P.G. Good to see P.G. Back on the
[2:16] Speaker 2: court against his former team as well.
[2:21] Speaker 5: Way me up.
[2:25] Speaker 2: Looking good, Gil.
[2:27] Speaker 1: Feeling good, Lewis. Another one for the road. So, shout
[2:36] Speaker 1: out to that Celtics. New dynamic deal. So after the
[2:39] Speaker 1: big win, Tatum and PG had this to say about
[2:42] Speaker 1: their first time playing together.
[2:45] Speaker 6: It's kind of like surreal a little bit. Because like
[2:49] Speaker 6: I said, I was in high school playing. kind of
[2:56] Speaker 6: modeling my game after him and watching film of him
[3:00] Speaker 6: when I was in high school and college. I remember
[3:03] Speaker 6: I was, I had to be like the first player
[3:07] Speaker 6: in college to wear.
[3:09] Speaker 4: PG, PG ones.
[3:11] Speaker 6: I remember that I was like, if I wasn't the first,
[3:14] Speaker 6: I was one of the first guys in college. Cause
[3:16] Speaker 6: that was like 2000, that was 2016. Or early 2017. So,
[3:23] Speaker 6: you know, I've just always been a fan of PG.
[3:27] Speaker 6: And just to be able to be his teammate and
[3:30] Speaker 6: learn from him and him take on the role of
[3:35] Speaker 6: being kind of a mentor or of assistance to myself
[3:41] Speaker 6: and just other guys who have obviously watched him play
[3:45] Speaker 6: for a long time.
[3:48] Speaker 4: Is cool to be a part of.
[3:50] Speaker 7: My job is just make the game as easy as
[3:52] Speaker 7: possible for JT. Today was literally our first time being
[3:57] Speaker 7: on the same side. You know, all camp we've been
[4:00] Speaker 7: competing against each other. So today, you know, it was
[4:03] Speaker 7: first opportunity to kind of learn each other and.
[4:07] Speaker 2: Get a feel for one another.
[4:09] Speaker 7: But again, my job is try to make this as
[4:13] Speaker 7: easy as possible for him. However, he's going to be special.
[4:16] Speaker 4: You know what I mean?
[4:17] Speaker 7: He's going to be special. He knows how to make Plays,
[4:19] Speaker 7: he knows how to get his own shot. But, you know,
[4:22] Speaker 7: if my aggression takes the pressure off him and if
[4:26] Speaker 7: I can find ways to steal the extra possessions defensively or,
[4:30] Speaker 7: you know, get him some easy baskets, you know, that's
[4:33] Speaker 7: what I'm on that.
[4:34] Speaker 4: Floor to do.
[4:36] Speaker 1: I would argue Tatum already special. Four first-team All-NBA selections
[4:39] Speaker 1: coming back.
[4:40] Speaker 5: I thought it was five.
[4:40] Speaker 3: Huh?
[4:40] Speaker 5: I thought it was five.
[4:41] Speaker 2: Four, I thought, first-team, and then he's got a third-team,
[4:43] Speaker 2: if I'm not mistaken. Let me double-check.
[4:47] Speaker 5: 13, yeah. When did you get third-team?
[4:49] Speaker 2: 2020.
[4:50] Speaker 5: Oh, and COVID, that don't count. You didn't get to
[4:55] Speaker 5: finish the season.
[5:00] Speaker 3: I'm sorry.
[5:03] Speaker 1: But, Shub, we'll start with your first impressions of the Celtics'
[5:06] Speaker 1: new Jason Tatum-PG duo.
[5:08] Speaker 2: Well, I knew it would be a good fit for PG.
[5:14] Speaker 2: It's not a tandem to me, though.
[5:17] Speaker 4: It's not.
[5:17] Speaker 2: It's just a duo of.
[5:19] Speaker 4: They're not really a duo. Duos, to me, use each.
[5:24] Speaker 5: Other a little.
[5:26] Speaker 8: I feel like Jalen and him was a duo because
[5:29] Speaker 8: we expected a certain thing out of both. I don't
[5:34] Speaker 8: expect a lot out of PG. PG could have games
[5:38] Speaker 8: this year where he could have 10 points, two rebounds,
[5:45] Speaker 8: no turnovers, and we like, this man played amazing.
[5:49] Speaker 4: Like, he's not there to produce numbers.
[5:53] Speaker 8: So duos, I usually put in that category.
[5:55] Speaker 4: So I ain't going to say they're a duo.
[5:57] Speaker 8: But I definitely like PG in a Celtics uniform.
[6:02] Speaker 2: It didn't bother me at all. It didn't look nasty.
[6:04] Speaker 4: Like, I don't mind it at all.
[6:06] Speaker 2: Let me just counter that.
[6:08] Speaker 1: If you've got somebody making $ 54 million on your roster
[6:11] Speaker 1: and you're looking at that stat line, you're saying that's
[6:13] Speaker 1: a good game.
[6:14] Speaker 2: Production-wise for the value that you're getting.
[6:16] Speaker 8: You know what I'm saying? They chose to give him
[6:18] Speaker 8: that money. That was a sixer, that four-year 212. Yeah,
[6:22] Speaker 8: I'm just saying. Yeah, this bag, I ain't hating on
[6:26] Speaker 8: none of they bags. You know what I'm saying?
[6:27] Speaker 2: They traded a guy who was averaging 29 points a
[6:29] Speaker 2: game and said.
[6:29] Speaker 8: I don't know why you traded that guy. I didn't
[6:33] Speaker 8: trade him. Tell me what they did. Taylor Brown, listen,
[6:36] Speaker 8: you'd have been playing at Boston for the rest of
[6:38] Speaker 8: your motherfucking life.
[6:40] Speaker 2: What are you talking about?
[6:41] Speaker 4: I'd have been like, I don't give a fuck if
[6:42] Speaker 4: you like us or don't like us.
[6:44] Speaker 2: You going to play in that motherfucking Celtic green, goddammit.
[6:47] Speaker 4: The fuck is you talking about?
[6:48] Speaker 3: You going to come over here and score that bitch
[6:50] Speaker 3: like that, get.
[6:50] Speaker 4: Finals, MVP, and leave my motherfucking team.
[6:53] Speaker 3: I was the Celtics? Oh, he's been, what?
[6:57] Speaker 4: You could have made commercials with him having the chain.
[6:59] Speaker 8: Ball to his foot like Space Jam. Like, oh, no,
[7:03] Speaker 8: you going to win in this gym for us. For
[7:06] Speaker 8: the rest of your goddamn life. What the hell wrong
[7:09] Speaker 8: with you? You go out there and get finals MVP
[7:11] Speaker 8: and say, you don't want to be here? Oh, you're
[7:12] Speaker 8: going to be here. You're going to be here. I
[7:15] Speaker 8: wouldn't have trained this shit. We're going to work it. Yeah,
[7:18] Speaker 8: I ain't trained this ass.
[7:21] Speaker 3: I ain't do that shit.
[7:24] Speaker 8: But now that we see them together, I don't have
[7:27] Speaker 8: a problem with it. It's just I like that he
[7:29] Speaker 8: said that in the interview because if it go down,
[7:33] Speaker 8: Jason Tatum, you may have to pull a little bit
[7:35] Speaker 8: more out.
[7:35] Speaker 4: Don't expect Paul to have to do some.
[7:38] Speaker 8: You don't want him to go outside of what you
[7:40] Speaker 8: got him there for. And I just don't think that
[7:42] Speaker 8: they brought him there to be Jalen Brown. They brought
[7:47] Speaker 8: him there to be a cohesive piece next to Jason Tatum,
[7:50] Speaker 8: who they think his wings is a little bigger than
[7:53] Speaker 8: what the fuck we've seen.
[7:54] Speaker 4: You know what I'm saying?
[7:55] Speaker 8: So I'm happy for y'all, Boston, if y'all happy. In
[7:58] Speaker 8: no way, shape, or form am I excusing leaving... Taking
[8:03] Speaker 8: Jalen Brown and just... I'm not excusing that, but PG
[8:07] Speaker 8: don't look nasty.
[8:08] Speaker 2: What PG are you looking for?
[8:09] Speaker 1: Are you looking for the Sixers PG that was around 16,
[8:11] Speaker 1: 17 points per game?
[8:12] Speaker 8: Or are you looking for that Clippers PG that was...
[8:15] Speaker 8: I need the Boston PG. I need him to get
[8:17] Speaker 8: Clippers and Philly. Get that all out your head. Get
[8:22] Speaker 8: that all out your head because we ain't doing that
[8:24] Speaker 8: over here. We ain't doing that over here. We count
[8:26] Speaker 8: by three. We count by three. You here to lock up?
[8:32] Speaker 4: Lock up.
[8:33] Speaker 2: Stay healthy. We're going to count by three.
[8:36] Speaker 8: In the playoffs, in the event that Tatum has a hiccup,
[8:42] Speaker 8: then you can put your cape back on for two games.
[8:45] Speaker 4: You get two games out this whole run that we're
[8:49] Speaker 4: going to need you to pull it out.
[8:50] Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying?
[8:51] Speaker 8: But other than that, dog, no. Just be efficient.
[8:56] Speaker 2: And be healthy.
[8:57] Speaker 4: Be able to teach.
[8:58] Speaker 5: I think that's the biggest thing.
[9:00] Speaker 2: I mean, when you.
[9:02] Speaker 5: You can't ignore the contract.
[9:05] Speaker 2: Why? You said why?
[9:06] Speaker 9: Well, one, they traded him for a finals MVP for
[9:13] Speaker 9: the same amount of money, basically.
[9:16] Speaker 2: I mean, he was getting that money anyway.
[9:18] Speaker 5: That's fine.
[9:19] Speaker 8: We ain't seen the version of PG we've wanted to
[9:21] Speaker 8: see the whole time anyway.
[9:22] Speaker 9: No, that's fine, but I do expect 18 to 20
[9:25] Speaker 9: a game.
[9:27] Speaker 3: You can do that for three.
[9:28] Speaker 2: I do.
[9:28] Speaker 4: I do.
[9:31] Speaker 9: I'm expecting that from PG. I don't think he was
[9:33] Speaker 9: brought there to go average 16. I don't think they
[9:36] Speaker 9: expect him to be PG of the Sixers. I'm sure
[9:39] Speaker 9: they don't expect him to be OKC, PG, Andy, PG,
[9:43] Speaker 9: or the Clippers. But 18 to 20, I think that's
[9:45] Speaker 9: a great version of him, especially at the number he's making.
[9:48] Speaker 2: And with his abilities.
[9:49] Speaker 9: Obviously, PG has been unhealthy these years, but we can't
[9:53] Speaker 9: forget who this dude is.
[9:54] Speaker 8: Four or five threes a game, a pull-up or two,
[9:58] Speaker 8: get out and transition if you can, or a little
[10:00] Speaker 8: offensive rebound or something.
[10:01] Speaker 4: Nothing crazy.
[10:02] Speaker 2: Hit all your free throws.
[10:03] Speaker 5: Real talk, though.
[10:05] Speaker 4: For PG, that'll be chill.
[10:07] Speaker 9: I think PG is, to hear Jason Tatum speak about
[10:11] Speaker 9: him the way he did coming up through high school,
[10:14] Speaker 9: trying to mirror his game and things like that, even
[10:17] Speaker 9: at this stage, I think PG being there can help
[10:20] Speaker 9: elevate Jason to another level of play.
[10:24] Speaker 5: I think it's a lot of knowledge there.
[10:26] Speaker 9: We all know what type of player PG was as
[10:30] Speaker 9: far as putting the ball on the floor, getting to
[10:32] Speaker 9: his spots, attacking the rim.
[10:34] Speaker 5: And I think that's something.
[10:35] Speaker 9: That that knowledge can be shared with Jason, and I
[10:39] Speaker 9: think he becomes a better player, especially with the role
[10:42] Speaker 9: that he's in now. At one point, you were sharing
[10:45] Speaker 9: a responsibility. Now the responsibility is totally on your side.
[10:48] Speaker 2: There's no other excuse. Yeah, we ain't losing because PG
[10:51] Speaker 2: played bad.
[10:51] Speaker 5: So if this shit go bad, we're not looking at PG.
[10:53] Speaker 2: That's what I meant.
[10:54] Speaker 5: We're not looking at Coach. We're looking at Jason.
[10:57] Speaker 2: Real talk.
[10:57] Speaker 5: So I think PG being there, that's what I'm saying.
[11:01] Speaker 5: I think his game can go to another level.
[11:03] Speaker 9: In certain parts, as great as Jason Tatum is, and
[11:07] Speaker 9: I do mean I think he's a great player, I
[11:10] Speaker 9: still think there's parts of his game that he can improve.
[11:13] Speaker 2: Of course.
[11:13] Speaker 9: Attacking the rim. Not necessarily settling for the three as much.
[11:18] Speaker 9: getting to that middie. So I think PG can help
[11:21] Speaker 9: him unlock that a little more. And we'll see even
[11:25] Speaker 9: more all-around type of score. So when I think about
[11:29] Speaker 9: it like that, I'm not mad at the move. But
[11:31] Speaker 9: you can't ignore what Jalen brought.
[11:36] Speaker 2: I get what he getting paid. But what I'm saying is– I'm.
[11:39] Speaker 9: Thinking of– I don't think they brought him in to
[11:41] Speaker 9: be an okay team. I still think they want to be– Who?
[11:45] Speaker 5: Boston.
[11:46] Speaker 9: So when I say that, like– They have the intentions
[11:49] Speaker 9: of being a top team, a contending team.
[11:52] Speaker 8: Because they like, bro, you was hitting four threes here
[11:56] Speaker 8: and there with a whole different city.
[11:58] Speaker 3: Like, bro, you finna get wide open.
[12:01] Speaker 4: I don't think Paul George ever saw. Maybe.
[12:05] Speaker 2: Ooh.
[12:07] Speaker 3: Maybe.
[12:07] Speaker 8: Everybody that played Boston, you finna leave somebody open.
[12:10] Speaker 4: You have to.
[12:11] Speaker 2: We'll see.
[12:14] Speaker 4: You don't think Paul George?
[12:16] Speaker 5: I don't know about just a bunch of open threes.
[12:17] Speaker 5: I know they like to shoot the three.
[12:19] Speaker 4: Oh, no, that's what I'm saying.
[12:21] Speaker 3: If I'm here and he there, that's an open three.
[12:24] Speaker 5: Listen to me.
[12:24] Speaker 9: It also depends on what's on the floor with you
[12:27] Speaker 9: that's creating those open looks for you. And when I
[12:30] Speaker 9: look at that Boston Celtics group outside of.
[12:32] Speaker 5: Tatum, who's creating those looks?
[12:35] Speaker 2: White. Outside of Tatum and White.
[12:37] Speaker 5: Outside of Tatum, who's creating those looks?
[12:39] Speaker 4: Derek White can create looks.
[12:41] Speaker 2: We'll see.
[12:43] Speaker 5: What's he?
[12:44] Speaker 2: He's been doing it for years. Doing what?
[12:46] Speaker 8: Coming off of a ball screen, reading the defense, and
[12:49] Speaker 8: putting that bitch on the money.
[12:50] Speaker 9: For somebody to lace up a three. Third and fourth options.
[12:53] Speaker 9: He did it in San Antonio. He was never the
[12:55] Speaker 9: focal point of any offense.
[12:57] Speaker 5: You're right. He's never been the focal point of an offense.
[12:59] Speaker 2: He has been the focal. He's never been the focal point.
[13:01] Speaker 4: Derek White, he's had to play point guard plenty of times.
[13:04] Speaker 5: Start and handle the ball. You can play point guard.
[13:05] Speaker 5: That don't mean you the focal.
[13:07] Speaker 4: He's still not the focal point.
[13:08] Speaker 2: What you talking about?
[13:09] Speaker 5: Which is exactly what I'm saying. So if it's not,
[13:12] Speaker 5: who's creating those open looks?
[13:14] Speaker 2: The offense.
[13:14] Speaker 5: The Paul George.
[13:15] Speaker 2: The offense.
[13:16] Speaker 8: Jason Tatum and Derek White.
[13:20] Speaker 5: It's going to take more than that. That's all I'm saying.
[13:22] Speaker 3: All they have to do is create the breakdown.
[13:26] Speaker 2: They just have to create.
[13:27] Speaker 5: The breakdown, dog.
[13:29] Speaker 3: That's how Boston get open looks.
[13:31] Speaker 5: Not attempts. We're talking about open looks.
[13:33] Speaker 2: Ball screen.
[13:34] Speaker 3: Tag man. You tag.
[13:37] Speaker 4: PG is shooting a three.
[13:39] Speaker 5: In the corner.
[13:39] Speaker 2: We're going to see.
[13:40] Speaker 3: You know what I'm saying?
[13:41] Speaker 4: Jason Tatum, get it going.
[13:43] Speaker 3: He on the block.
[13:44] Speaker 2: Rotation happens.
[13:45] Speaker 3: Who's shooting the three?
[13:46] Speaker 2: I understand how the offense works.
[13:48] Speaker 5: That's what I'm saying, though.
[13:49] Speaker 3: It's wide open threes.
[13:50] Speaker 9: Who's creating the gravity to create those open looks for
[13:54] Speaker 9: Paul Tatum?
[13:55] Speaker 5: Tatum, we named one guy.
[13:57] Speaker 2: Who else?
[13:58] Speaker 5: I don't think Derek White is that guy.
[14:00] Speaker 3: I'm not saying on an ISO. Of course he's not
[14:02] Speaker 3: going to do that. But he know how to make
[14:04] Speaker 3: a team rotate. All you got to do is make
[14:06] Speaker 3: niggas rotate.
[14:06] Speaker 4: We've been in the shop, eh?
[14:08] Speaker 5: So he was a defender. You as a defender, you're
[14:13] Speaker 5: allowing that. Allowing what? That open look to Paul George
[14:15] Speaker 5: because you're so focused on Derrick White creating this look.
[14:19] Speaker 4: Yeah, you see what he do.
[14:21] Speaker 5: I'm asking. I'm trying to understand what you're coming for.
[14:24] Speaker 4: You as this defender, right?
[14:29] Speaker 9: You're allowing Derrick White to get downhill to open three
[14:34] Speaker 9: for Paul George.
[14:35] Speaker 8: I'm not saying that's how he gets it done. What
[14:37] Speaker 8: I'm saying is who's creating those open looks? The offense itself.
[14:41] Speaker 5: I don't know.
[14:42] Speaker 2: It don't work.
[14:42] Speaker 5: They shoot 44 threes. I know all that. It's the
[14:47] Speaker 5: difference between attempts and open threes. Y'all don't understand.
[14:50] Speaker 3: So, Derek White can't shoot.
[14:52] Speaker 2: He's getting his open shots.
[14:53] Speaker 5: Pritchard's going to get his open shots.
[14:54] Speaker 3: Like, everybody who can't dribble getting open shots because …
[14:59] Speaker 3: One is driving, one is going to switch shots for them,
[15:01] Speaker 3: but it ain't necessarily an open shot for Paul George.
[15:04] Speaker 3: If Derek White is going to get an open shot,
[15:07] Speaker 3: Paul George is going to get an open shot.
[15:09] Speaker 4: This is what we're saying.
[15:10] Speaker 8: We're saying you're making it seem like when you're guarding Boston,
[15:13] Speaker 8: you care who's hoisting the three.
[15:16] Speaker 5: We absolutely do.
[15:17] Speaker 8: Like you said, there's only one player we give up.
[15:19] Speaker 3: Jordan Walsh got five threes.
[15:21] Speaker 2: Who the fuck is he?
[15:22] Speaker 3: Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
[15:27] Speaker 5: I'm just saying, but he ain't creating his own threes.
[15:30] Speaker 5: It's driving swing, driving swing.
[15:32] Speaker 2: Take it back.
[15:32] Speaker 5: Five out.
[15:33] Speaker 4: That's light skin, man.
[15:34] Speaker 3: But I know, but it's driving kick. So he's going
[15:38] Speaker 3: to get wide open threes. It's not like he's coming
[15:40] Speaker 3: down doing one of those.
[15:41] Speaker 4: He can hoop a little bit.
[15:43] Speaker 5: Everybody can hoop.
[15:45] Speaker 4: I think we should chill, though.
[15:46] Speaker 3: Gil, the way you threw that out there, I can.
[15:48] Speaker 4: Tell you ain't seen it.
[15:49] Speaker 5: No, no, what I'm saying is.
[15:50] Speaker 4: You ain't seen it, though.
[15:51] Speaker 5: What I'm saying is.
[15:52] Speaker 3: I'm saying you gotta see it first. He ain't creating
[15:55] Speaker 3: his own shot off of zero nothing.
[15:57] Speaker 4: Because they don't let him. I'm just saying the way
[16:01] Speaker 4: you say it, like, who is that?
[16:02] Speaker 3: Like, he can do it.
[16:03] Speaker 4: I'm saying, though, I've seen it.
[16:04] Speaker 3: What I'm saying is if he can get his open three, Paul.
[16:09] Speaker 4: George can get his open three. This is why he.
[16:11] Speaker 4: I just didn't want you to trip over.
[16:14] Speaker 5: No, I know who he is. But I'm just saying
[16:16] Speaker 5: if he. As a defense, though, I'm going to leave
[16:18] Speaker 5: walls open before I leave. That's the part I'm trying
[16:22] Speaker 5: to understand with what we're saying right now.
[16:26] Speaker 8: I'm just saying, breakdowns is what gives somebody an open three.
[16:30] Speaker 3: There is no... Besides Chris Paul.
[16:35] Speaker 8: Chris Paul can orchestrate you a three.
[16:36] Speaker 4: You know what I'm saying?
[16:38] Speaker 3: Jason Kidd can make you open.
[16:40] Speaker 2: Rondo, yep.
[16:42] Speaker 8: Yeah, Rondo can make everybody else look over him real
[16:45] Speaker 8: hard while I'm standing here guarding him. He can make
[16:48] Speaker 8: us all look this way, throw a behind-the-back pass to
[16:51] Speaker 8: where he's shooting an open three before I even notice.
[16:55] Speaker 2: You get what I'm saying?
[16:56] Speaker 5: I get that.
[16:57] Speaker 4: Nobody on their team can do that. which is why
[17:00] Speaker 4: they run the offense that they run.
[17:01] Speaker 8: Peyton Pritchard, Derek White, whatever guard they put in, they're
[17:06] Speaker 8: going to come out, they're going to run a ball screen,
[17:08] Speaker 8: they're going to come off of it full speed. They're
[17:11] Speaker 8: going to attack your big, they're going to cause a rotation,
[17:14] Speaker 8: they're going to make four or five passes.
[17:16] Speaker 5: It might not be.
[17:17] Speaker 4: PG on this possession, but he's going to get four threes.
[17:21] Speaker 5: You get what I'm saying? I'm not denying that part.
[17:24] Speaker 4: Then he's going to shoot another.
[17:26] Speaker 5: Open three.
[17:27] Speaker 2: They are.
[17:27] Speaker 3: They're going to be wide.
[17:29] Speaker 4: The fuck open.
[17:29] Speaker 5: Are we looking at this wrong?
[17:30] Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't believe it.
[17:31] Speaker 3: You know when he said, we're not bringing you here
[17:34] Speaker 3: to be Jalen Brown?
[17:36] Speaker 8: Yeah.
[17:36] Speaker 5: Which Jalen Brown?
[17:38] Speaker 3: Last year's Jalen Brown or the years before that?
[17:40] Speaker 2: The 22 to 23 point? I dig it.
[17:42] Speaker 5: None of them.
[17:44] Speaker 2: None of them.
[17:45] Speaker 3: If we're just talking about the 23, three and five,
[17:49] Speaker 3: that's what Paul George averages. 23, 3-5 with a better
[17:56] Speaker 3: three-point percentage and free throw.
[17:59] Speaker 5: So you're talking about.
[18:02] Speaker 4: If I bring in a guy who's... You're talking about
[18:03] Speaker 4: this is young Jalen Brown.
[18:05] Speaker 3: Besides last year. Last year was out of body. Other
[18:08] Speaker 3: than that, he averages 22, 3, and 5. That's what
[18:11] Speaker 3: Jalen Brown averages.
[18:12] Speaker 4: But Jalen Brown was averaging that next to Jason Tatum.
[18:15] Speaker 3: Yeah, so when you're talking about Paul George as a
[18:18] Speaker 3: second option next to Kawhi, next to this, he's averaging 22, 3,
[18:20] Speaker 3: and 5. You ain't lying. shooting a better clip from
[18:26] Speaker 3: the three. So they're like, well, if I can get
[18:28] Speaker 3: the same production, I might not get the same leadership.
[18:31] Speaker 3: I might not get the same toughness. I might not
[18:34] Speaker 3: get the same lockdown defender.
[18:36] Speaker 2: But you know what I mean?
[18:37] Speaker 3: I might not get the same lockdown defender who's going
[18:39] Speaker 3: to lock, you know what I mean, that's going to
[18:41] Speaker 3: go out there and lock a nigga up.
[18:43] Speaker 4: He going to defend.
[18:45] Speaker 3: But I might get a better just offensive player that's
[18:49] Speaker 3: going to shoot and keep you honest. I can give you,
[18:53] Speaker 3: I can get 22 out of them.
[18:55] Speaker 5: I think so. You know what I mean? I might
[18:57] Speaker 5: not like, you know.
[18:58] Speaker 3: But there's a difference between points on the court. And
[19:06] Speaker 3: someone who brings just that little bit of something else,
[19:09] Speaker 3: which that's what Jaden Brown does. He brings something just
[19:12] Speaker 3: when you need a play, when you need a stop,
[19:15] Speaker 3: need an offensive.
[19:15] Speaker 5: Rebound, need a dunk.
[19:18] Speaker 3: He gives you that. So the 22 on paper is
[19:21] Speaker 3: the same, but it's not played the same. So he
[19:24] Speaker 3: might have the same numbers. The results might be different
[19:28] Speaker 3: on that scoreboard.
[19:28] Speaker 4: Because now Jason Tatum has to do the miraculous shit.
[19:33] Speaker 3: Get him in foul trouble because, you know, Jason don't
[19:36] Speaker 3: get fouled like that.
[19:37] Speaker 4: He thinking how Boston was thinking.
[19:40] Speaker 5: You like who?
[19:40] Speaker 2: I'm sorry?
[19:41] Speaker 8: He was thinking how Boston was thinking, where it's like, well,
[19:46] Speaker 8: how do we have to have it this way if
[19:48] Speaker 8: I can get that same production?
[19:50] Speaker 2: Out of PG?
[19:51] Speaker 1: I mean, shooting 38% to 40% from three, you're going
[19:53] Speaker 1: to shoot threes at a high volume.
[19:54] Speaker 5: That's why I don't believe that motherfucker going to have
[19:55] Speaker 5: open threes.
[19:57] Speaker 4: Oh, you're saying you respect it.
[19:59] Speaker 2: That's why you're in.
[19:59] Speaker 5: That's what I was like.
[20:00] Speaker 3: Open three?
[20:01] Speaker 2: Trust me, bro.
[20:02] Speaker 9: Open three is coming to guys now in the corner
[20:05] Speaker 9: playing where the main guys are getting double teamed and
[20:08] Speaker 9: shit like that.
[20:08] Speaker 4: Oh, no.
[20:08] Speaker 3: I ain't saying they ain't going to be running. No, no, no, no.
[20:10] Speaker 5: Let's go. But that's where they had Jennifer.
[20:12] Speaker 4: Time out, though. We not defying an open three.
[20:15] Speaker 3: That's what I'm saying.
[20:16] Speaker 5: An attempt or open three?
[20:18] Speaker 4: No, no, no, no. I ain't saying we finna do
[20:20] Speaker 4: the Chris Paul, let him shoot that.
[20:22] Speaker 8: It ain't none of that happening. No, it ain't none
[20:25] Speaker 8: of that. I just meant error, error. I'm running out late,
[20:30] Speaker 8: but I know my contest means nothing.
[20:34] Speaker 3: This means nothing. If Gilbert is sitting in the goddamn.
[20:37] Speaker 8: Corner and that bitch go around the horn and I
[20:40] Speaker 8: gotta make the long run, I know in my head.
[20:43] Speaker 4: Either he's making this or he's missing it, but I
[20:46] Speaker 4: ain't doing.
[20:46] Speaker 2: Shit about it.
[20:48] Speaker 4: Yeah, my contest means nothing. Is he talking shit? Is
[20:52] Speaker 4: he focused on the shot?
[20:53] Speaker 8: That's real talk. At this point, is he going to play?
[20:55] Speaker 8: Is he going to joke around like, oh shit, you late?
[20:58] Speaker 3: You know what I'm saying?
[20:58] Speaker 4: But it's like, it don't got nothing to do with me.
[21:00] Speaker 4: And I feel like.
[21:02] Speaker 8: Paul George is about to have plenty of shots that
[21:05] Speaker 8: it's just up to him to make a shot.
[21:07] Speaker 2: It's not, should I shoot this?
[21:09] Speaker 5: It's no.
[21:10] Speaker 8: With Boston, error, error, the ball swings. They are going
[21:14] Speaker 8: to give him that ball. Nobody's holding the ball over there.
[21:17] Speaker 5: I think his light greener than we think, too. I
[21:20] Speaker 5: hope so. Oh, that motherfucker going to be fluorescent. For sure.
[21:23] Speaker 3: Y'all still forgetting this motherfucker making 50 million in this shit.
[21:27] Speaker 3: That light is great.
[21:28] Speaker 4: I just mean there's no pressure.
[21:29] Speaker 2: Derek White taking eight threes per game last season. Last season.
[21:32] Speaker 5: This is new to me.
[21:33] Speaker 2: No, he going to.
[21:34] Speaker 3: But you thinking of.
[21:35] Speaker 1: Payton Preacher taking seven.
[21:37] Speaker 2: They going to shoot it. Yeah.
[21:38] Speaker 3: But I'm saying he's going to get them up two.
[21:40] Speaker 4: He's going to get them up two.
[21:41] Speaker 2: 100%.
[21:41] Speaker 3: I'm not tripping up this one.
[21:42] Speaker 5: My argument was open threes.
[21:44] Speaker 4: I just said, yeah. It ain't not the version that
[21:47] Speaker 4: you're thinking.
[21:47] Speaker 5: He took 10 shots yesterday. Seven of them was threes.
[21:50] Speaker 8: Yeah.
[21:51] Speaker 2: That's how it should be.
[21:53] Speaker 3: You know what's going to change? You said something. Swing, swing, swing.
[21:56] Speaker 5: Corner guy.
[21:57] Speaker 3: Corner guy used to be Jason. Used to be Brown.
[22:01] Speaker 2: Jalen Brown.
[22:02] Speaker 3: And that's when you're coming at him and he drives.
[22:06] Speaker 5: And he go punch.
[22:07] Speaker 2: And that's his shit now. Two-hand dunk.
[22:08] Speaker 5: Who they going to.
[22:11] Speaker 3: Because they might lose those easy twos in fouls on rotation.
[22:15] Speaker 8: But that's what they willing to bet, though. They always
[22:19] Speaker 8: been willing to live and die by the three.
[22:21] Speaker 4: They're saying... We'll take the three with Paul George instead
[22:26] Speaker 4: of the rip and dunk.
[22:27] Speaker 5: I'd be forgetting. No, I'd be forgetting. You know something. Yeah,
[22:30] Speaker 5: I wouldn't be surprised if I ended up in that
[22:33] Speaker 5: starting line.
[22:34] Speaker 3: Let's be cool, old buddy.
[22:35] Speaker 5: Yeah, Jordan Walsh.
[22:37] Speaker 2: I would not be.
[22:38] Speaker 4: Surprised if I ended up in that starting line.
[22:40] Speaker 2: That is an open area.
[22:41] Speaker 4: No, but I didn't know he had all that.
[22:43] Speaker 3: He's got a little more than people think. Oh, they
[22:45] Speaker 3: got him at the guard.
[22:46] Speaker 5: He's a hooper.
[22:47] Speaker 4: He's got a little more than people think.
[22:50] Speaker 8: I think he did an incredible job of coming to
[22:52] Speaker 8: the league and saying, I'm going to do all the
[22:53] Speaker 8: hard-nosed things that I have to do to keep my way.
[22:56] Speaker 8: I'm going to make my way in this league. He
[22:58] Speaker 8: definitely got... He started last game?
[23:00] Speaker 2: Don't be surprised. He got game.
[23:00] Speaker 5: That's the one spot I think they're trying to figure.
[23:07] Speaker 8: He did a couple of little moves in the preseason
[23:09] Speaker 8: that I was.
[23:10] Speaker 2: Just like, oh. 6'7, 6'7.
[23:13] Speaker 5: 6'7, can guard both arms. Super long arms.
[23:15] Speaker 2: He got the shoulders, too, that he could deal with
[23:18] Speaker 2: that motherfucking.
[23:19] Speaker 5: Got a motor.
[23:19] Speaker 2: Yep.
[23:20] Speaker 4: Deal with that bump. Deal with that white whale.
[23:22] Speaker 5: Put him at the three. Put him anywhere.
[23:24] Speaker 2: Or the two. Or the two. Put him anywhere.
[23:26] Speaker 4: I don't know about his handle.
[23:28] Speaker 2: It only played him 11 minutes. And then put.
[23:29] Speaker 5: Pritchett to shoot.
[23:30] Speaker 2: All right.
[23:31] Speaker 5: He could be that corner guy that driving to the rim.
[23:34] Speaker 1: And Boogie, so you know Celtics were fourth in the
[23:36] Speaker 1: league in open three-point attempts last season.
[23:38] Speaker 2: That's 17 open three-point attempts. Open threes?
[23:40] Speaker 5: Last season.
[23:41] Speaker 4: Open threes.
[23:42] Speaker 5: Last season.
[23:43] Speaker 2: Open threes.
[23:45] Speaker 5: Last season.
[23:46] Speaker 4: Without Jason Tate.
[23:47] Speaker 2: Without Jason Tate.
[23:49] Speaker 5: Last season.
[23:51] Speaker 3: Hey, I'm going to just be honest with you. If
[23:53] Speaker 3: we shooting 48 threes, all of me got to be open.
[23:57] Speaker 3: I just got to put these bitches up.
[23:59] Speaker 8: That's what it seem like. Like I be seeing people shoot.
[24:03] Speaker 8: We used to get in trouble for that shit.
[24:04] Speaker 2: What's that?
[24:05] Speaker 4: Shooting too many threes.
[24:07] Speaker 5: Bro, I ain't going to lie, man. Listen.
[24:09] Speaker 4: When I got encouraged to shoot three, that shit caught
[24:11] Speaker 4: me off guard.
[24:11] Speaker 5: When I came into the league, it might be 15
[24:13] Speaker 5: attempts on the game.
[24:14] Speaker 2: Real talk. Real talk.
[24:16] Speaker 4: And you better have a flip if you got over
[24:18] Speaker 4: four threes.
[24:19] Speaker 3: I be seeing the star player just waiting for the
[24:22] Speaker 3: ball and a mother come off a pick and roll
[24:23] Speaker 3: and shoot it.
[24:24] Speaker 4: And he happy.
[24:25] Speaker 5: He cool with it. Just running that back on.
[24:27] Speaker 2: Yeah.
[24:28] Speaker 8: That's what I said. And you're getting $ 150 million.
[24:30] Speaker 2: I'm like, what?
[24:32] Speaker 3: You know you couldn't shoot the ball without that nigga
[24:34] Speaker 3: touching it two, three times?
[24:35] Speaker 8: Boy, Amari used to grab me by the shoulder. Like, Sean, Sean,
[24:41] Speaker 8: come on, man.
[24:41] Speaker 2: You know I'm down there.
[24:42] Speaker 4: It was like that squeeze.
[24:43] Speaker 3: It was like, hey. Like, hey.
[24:48] Speaker 2: Give me that rock.
[24:49] Speaker 4: Real talk about that.
[24:50] Speaker 2: Hey, yo, fella.
[24:51] Speaker 5: Come on.
[24:51] Speaker 3: I'm working.
[24:52] Speaker 5: I'm working.
[24:53] Speaker 2: Down there working. You know what I'm saying?
[24:55] Speaker 4: Like, come on now. That's too many shots.
[24:57] Speaker 5: I ain't going to lie.
[24:58] Speaker 3: When he came to high school, he was probably the
[25:01] Speaker 3: most dominant thing I seen.
[25:03] Speaker 4: Amari?
[25:05] Speaker 5: I seen him at Jordan camp. Well, I ain't seen
[25:08] Speaker 5: him in high school.
[25:08] Speaker 2: No, no.
[25:08] Speaker 5: I seen him at Jordan camp. And, you know, you
[25:11] Speaker 5: play pickup games.
[25:13] Speaker 3: Anytime he touched the ball, he tried to dunk everything. Yeah.
[25:19] Speaker 3: And I was like, yo, what's going on? He was like, yeah,
[25:21] Speaker 3: that's what they said. When I touch this paint, try
[25:23] Speaker 3: to dunk it.
[25:25] Speaker 5: I said, what?
[25:26] Speaker 3: When I touch the paint and I get the ball,
[25:29] Speaker 3: I'm trying to dunk it on anyone and everyone.
[25:33] Speaker 5: Right?
[25:33] Speaker 4: And I'm just watching him.
[25:35] Speaker 3: He just tried on everyone. We had the draft. It
[25:38] Speaker 3: was my second year. We got the number three pick.
[25:41] Speaker 3: I said, hey, I don't know who y'all going after
[25:44] Speaker 3: because I know y'all can't get Jason Williams because he's
[25:47] Speaker 3: supposed to be going too.
[25:48] Speaker 2: So my position is good.
[25:51] Speaker 3: The kid Amari Stoudemire is in the draft.
[25:56] Speaker 5: Draft him.
[25:58] Speaker 3: I watched him work. I watched him work out in Jordan.
[26:01] Speaker 3: I watched all that. We're going with Dunleavy. And I
[26:04] Speaker 3: was like, cool, that was my teammate too. That was
[26:07] Speaker 3: my teammate too. But I'm telling you that.
[26:08] Speaker 5: Amari dude, his thought process was crazy.
[26:12] Speaker 2: And this was two years ago.
[26:14] Speaker 4: He was spiking that ball so hard.
[26:16] Speaker 2: I didn't watch him as his rookie year.
[26:17] Speaker 3: I was like....
[26:20] Speaker 4: Told y'all. Get the ball and do that.
[26:23] Speaker 8: You know how some people take the ball and they
[26:25] Speaker 8: pat it real quick so they can palm it? Like
[26:28] Speaker 8: his pat, the way he would, you would see.
[26:31] Speaker 3: His hand like, take the round.
[26:34] Speaker 4: What he thinking?
[26:35] Speaker 3: Picking that thing up, spiking it.
[26:38] Speaker 5: Shorty, I ain't going to hold you.
[26:40] Speaker 8: Yeah, I wish I could palm him. I could never
[26:42] Speaker 8: palm him. My mother could just foul me anytime in
[26:44] Speaker 8: the air.
[26:45] Speaker 4: I'd lose that bitch. She'd be pissing me off.
[26:47] Speaker 8: People would be like, why you miss that dunk? I
[26:49] Speaker 8: can't fucking palm it. The nigga fouled me, bro. Obviously,
[26:52] Speaker 8: it was a foul.
[26:53] Speaker 2: I know your past. I got small hands.
[26:55] Speaker 5: Small hands. My strong ones.
[26:58] Speaker 4: Wish I had larger ones.
[26:59] Speaker 1: So, Jason Tatum has been the face of the Celtics franchise.
[27:03] Speaker 1: I think we can agree on that. No dispute? No
[27:06] Speaker 1: dispute on that. But Jalen Brown had a major impact
[27:08] Speaker 1: on his team. Was the vocal leader. Also took on
[27:11] Speaker 1: the Eastern Conference Finals MVP, Finals MVP during Boston's championship
[27:14] Speaker 1: run in 2024. We've had this alpha conversation as of late,
[27:18] Speaker 1: but how will Tatum handle being the lone alpha on
[27:21] Speaker 1: this new look Celtics squad? Now, whether you thought he
[27:24] Speaker 1: was alpha when the Jays were together or not, Jalen
[27:28] Speaker 1: Brown did a lot on that front.
[27:30] Speaker 9: I mean, I just think it's a different situation. Like
[27:32] Speaker 9: I said earlier, I don't think it's... I don't think
[27:35] Speaker 9: the blame can go anywhere else now. I think they
[27:38] Speaker 9: made a clear-cut decision to make this is our guy,
[27:41] Speaker 9: this is our franchise cornerstone.
[27:43] Speaker 4: It's his team.
[27:44] Speaker 9: Outside of that, I don't really think it's any more
[27:48] Speaker 9: excuses for anybody.
[27:49] Speaker 5: You can't go blame a 37-year-old Paul George.
[27:53] Speaker 9: Derrick White isn't that caliber of player to even try
[27:56] Speaker 9: to blame him either.
[27:58] Speaker 5: It falls on Jason Tatum.
[28:00] Speaker 9: At the end of the day, I think deep down,
[28:03] Speaker 9: I think this is what he want it you know
[28:04] Speaker 9: what i mean all the great and not in i'm
[28:06] Speaker 9: not saying it in the way where he you know
[28:08] Speaker 9: mastermind to get jb about it here but any competitive
[28:13] Speaker 9: they take the challenge you know what i mean you
[28:16] Speaker 9: want to prove not only to yourself but probably to
[28:19] Speaker 9: the doubters that don't think you can do it so
[28:21] Speaker 9: deep down i do think this is something that he
[28:23] Speaker 9: wanted but uh as far as how this shit go
[28:26] Speaker 9: it all falls on his shoulders it goes as far
[28:28] Speaker 9: as he takes the celtics group and um I think
[28:31] Speaker 9: that's what the organization wanted, and I think he wanted it.
[28:33] Speaker 9: So it's time to prove now.
[28:35] Speaker 2: I like it.
[28:36] Speaker 3: When we think about the Boston team takeout last year,
[28:43] Speaker 3: wasn't it already falling on Jason Tatum?
[28:46] Speaker 5: No one ever blamed Jalen.
[28:48] Speaker 2: Brown for anything. Who's going to blame Jalen Brown all
[28:50] Speaker 2: the time?
[28:51] Speaker 5: For losses?
[28:52] Speaker 4: Every time they lost, it was Jalen Brown fault.
[28:54] Speaker 5: Always. What year?
[28:56] Speaker 2: He was selfish.
[28:58] Speaker 3: He couldn't go left. But those are like just little
[29:02] Speaker 3: things that they're just nitpicking at his game.
[29:05] Speaker 5: So what are you saying? But when it came to wins, losses,
[29:09] Speaker 5: it never fell on him.
[29:11] Speaker 2: No, wins never fell on Jalen Brown.
[29:13] Speaker 5: Like even with the losses, like, oh, he can't go left-handed.
[29:16] Speaker 4: The losses always fell on him.
[29:19] Speaker 3: Oh, that always happens. It always falls on the number two. Yeah,
[29:23] Speaker 3: you ain't going to blame me for the loss.
[29:24] Speaker 5: Since when?
[29:26] Speaker 8: Huh?
[29:28] Speaker 5: It's always fell on the number two?
[29:31] Speaker 2: Yeah.
[29:33] Speaker 5: What the fuck you think you there for?
[29:35] Speaker 3: You there to take all the losses.
[29:37] Speaker 5: What you talking about? with this?
[29:40] Speaker 3: What you talking about? The losses always fell on the
[29:43] Speaker 3: number two. Unless the number one be like, yeah, that
[29:45] Speaker 3: was on me. That's on me.
[29:49] Speaker 2: In a fucked up way. I'm thinking about it.
[29:50] Speaker 3: When you think about the number twos, it's always usually
[29:54] Speaker 3: you try to stay out of the vision of the
[29:56] Speaker 3: number one player. It always kind of like.
[29:58] Speaker 5: When it didn't work for the Clippers, whose fault was it?
[30:01] Speaker 4: I never noticed that.
[30:02] Speaker 5: Huh?
[30:03] Speaker 3: It never was Kawhi's?
[30:04] Speaker 4: It was Paul George's fault.
[30:05] Speaker 3: It was CP's fault. It was Kawhi's fault, too, when
[30:08] Speaker 3: he wasn't there.
[30:09] Speaker 5: It was CP's fault.
[30:10] Speaker 3: When he wasn't there.
[30:11] Speaker 4: But that makes CP one.
[30:13] Speaker 2: That makes PG one.
[30:14] Speaker 3: When he was there playing, when he was there playing,
[30:17] Speaker 3: and he lost, it was all Paul George ain't.
[30:20] Speaker 2: Coming to play.
[30:20] Speaker 3: You pick one, and then the other one is the fault.
[30:23] Speaker 3: Hit the side of the backboard. You just blame everything
[30:26] Speaker 3: on the sidekick, usually.
[30:27] Speaker 2: That's crazy.
[30:29] Speaker 8: That's wild, because I ain't going to lie. If Batman
[30:31] Speaker 8: and Robin is fighting and they lose, Batman usually will, Robin.
[30:35] Speaker 5: But think about Embiid, right? Nobody ever said.
[30:40] Speaker 3: But when you think about Embiid and Ben Simmons, right?
[30:44] Speaker 5: It was Ben Simmons' fault.
[30:46] Speaker 3: Ben Simmons was like, I'm supposed to give him the
[30:47] Speaker 3: ball on the fourth quarter all the time. And y'all
[30:51] Speaker 3: blaming me, but y'all don't want to say every fourth
[30:54] Speaker 3: quarter he's too tired. His percentage goes down, damn near 30%
[30:58] Speaker 3: in the fourth quarter.
[30:59] Speaker 4: Damn, they already ain't a team together no more.
[31:01] Speaker 2: You're going to tear them apart.
[31:02] Speaker 3: No, I'm just saying.
[31:03] Speaker 2: I'm just saying.
[31:04] Speaker 5: Yeah, I guess I ain't think about it like that.
[31:06] Speaker 4: I ain't going to lie. Kyrie with LeBron.
[31:09] Speaker 2: Oh, I was there for that.
[31:10] Speaker 3: Man.
[31:10] Speaker 5: Was it Kyle Falk? Always.
[31:13] Speaker 3: Always.
[31:13] Speaker 2: When I lost, always.
[31:14] Speaker 3: Because it was.
[31:14] Speaker 5: It's always everybody.
[31:16] Speaker 2: That's different.
[31:16] Speaker 3: That's different.
[31:17] Speaker 4: Yeah.
[31:17] Speaker 5: But it always is. With Ron, it's all, yeah, that's different.
[31:19] Speaker 2: Like.
[31:20] Speaker 8: No, but I'm saying, it was my fault, but they
[31:24] Speaker 8: was putting shit on it like you just said about
[31:26] Speaker 8: Derrick White.
[31:26] Speaker 4: Like, Iman, but Iman ain't that caliber player. So, we
[31:31] Speaker 4: just going to put Iman over here. Yeah, we put
[31:34] Speaker 4: Iman over here.
[31:36] Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying?
[31:37] Speaker 3: J.R.
[31:37] Speaker 5: Chan and all that.
[31:39] Speaker 3: But, yeah, K-Love took it. K-Love took it.
[31:42] Speaker 2: Y'all had to do more.
[31:43] Speaker 4: But, yeah, that was a lot.
[31:46] Speaker 5: Fox?
[31:47] Speaker 3: Type shit. Oh, you missed a layup? Nigga, you missed
[31:51] Speaker 3: a layup.
[31:52] Speaker 5: It's on you.
[31:53] Speaker 2: It's on you.
[31:54] Speaker 3: It's you. It's you.
[31:57] Speaker 5: KD and Russ.
[31:58] Speaker 2: Straight up. KD did all that. It's still Russ Fong.
[32:03] Speaker 3: But that's why the number two, because for a number
[32:07] Speaker 3: two and a number.
[32:07] Speaker 4: One to get to be here. I thought you was
[32:10] Speaker 4: being funny at first. No, you're right, though. Yeah, the
[32:12] Speaker 4: way that just.
[32:13] Speaker 3: The number one, like if the number one never, like
[32:15] Speaker 3: imagine being the dude who takes all the blame, do
[32:19] Speaker 3: all the sacrificing, right? And the number one never like
[32:23] Speaker 3: just gives you credit in the public. Because they're not
[32:28] Speaker 3: mindful of it.
[32:29] Speaker 5: They're not mindful.
[32:29] Speaker 3: Nigga, I'm getting all the, nigga, we just lost by 30. Nigga,
[32:33] Speaker 3: you had seven points. And they were like, yeah, so
[32:35] Speaker 3: Jalen Brown, you missed three free throws. Nigga, we lost
[32:38] Speaker 3: by 30.
[32:39] Speaker 5: Nigga, my three free throws wouldn't have helped.
[32:41] Speaker 2: Real talk.
[32:41] Speaker 5: You know what I mean?
[32:42] Speaker 3: But they can't talk. They ain't going to get on
[32:44] Speaker 3: the bad side of that person.
[32:45] Speaker 2: Damn, you right as hell.
[32:47] Speaker 1: Tatum, Tatum, good with the media. Like I said, face
[32:50] Speaker 1: of the franchise, Jalen Brown. Obviously spiritual, deep thinker.
[32:55] Speaker 5: Who you was.
[32:56] Speaker 2: Fucking up that night, man? Huh?
[32:58] Speaker 4: Who was your number two?
[32:59] Speaker 3: You was just.
[32:59] Speaker 4: Ruining that shit.
[33:00] Speaker 5: It was always my fault.
[33:02] Speaker 4: No, no, no, facts.
[33:03] Speaker 2: No, it was his fault. Where?
[33:04] Speaker 5: He's the only one.
[33:05] Speaker 3: The only one by himself.
[33:08] Speaker 5: We could have won. It was still my fault. It's
[33:11] Speaker 5: your fault we won.
[33:13] Speaker 4: Somebody could fight by himself.
[33:15] Speaker 5: Triple-double.
[33:16] Speaker 9: I was going to force a rebound to pass.
[33:19] Speaker 5: Triple-double.
[33:21] Speaker 3: So why you didn't pass the ball those two times?
[33:25] Speaker 8: This shit is getting ridiculous.
[33:29] Speaker 5: This is ridiculous, man. Ridiculous.
[33:34] Speaker 2: Shout out Paolo.
[33:35] Speaker 8: Hey, my man was doing everything. My man was fighting everybody.
[33:41] Speaker 3: He was fighting for his fucking life.
[33:43] Speaker 5: The laugh at it now.
[33:45] Speaker 2: I ain't going to lie to you.
[33:46] Speaker 8: You had some games, even when we was playing against him.
[33:51] Speaker 4: He going off, but I don't know what he's trying
[33:53] Speaker 4: to do. Y'all not finna win this game.
[33:57] Speaker 3: He killing though.
[33:58] Speaker 2: No bullshit.
[33:59] Speaker 4: Hitting us with anything he want.
[34:01] Speaker 2: Step, step, big. Spin move.
[34:03] Speaker 4: Half spin.
[34:08] Speaker 3: He going to fuck off.
[34:09] Speaker 5: Yeah, I did. We did beat y'all in Cleveland. I
[34:11] Speaker 5: gave y'all a triple dunk.
[34:12] Speaker 3: I know.
[34:13] Speaker 5: You probably have won a couple of times.
[34:15] Speaker 2: I remember the good ones.
[34:17] Speaker 3: You might have won in New Orleans one time when
[34:19] Speaker 3: I was with the Knicks.
[34:20] Speaker 5: Oh, we beat the shit out of y'all. No, I
[34:21] Speaker 5: thought you were talking about Cleveland.
[34:23] Speaker 2: We beat y'all ass.
[34:24] Speaker 4: In New Orleans.
[34:26] Speaker 8: I remember we put yeah we was in New Orleans
[34:28] Speaker 8: I remember catching we was I'm like why y'all niggas
[34:32] Speaker 8: ain't in the playoffs why y'all not good like how
[34:35] Speaker 8: y'all beat.
[34:36] Speaker 5: Us we was fifth bro huh we was fifth.
[34:39] Speaker 8: I'm saying though why y'all not marching through the fucking
[34:42] Speaker 8: playoffs that's what I was saying we.
[34:43] Speaker 5: Haven't even got to that point yet that was the.
[34:45] Speaker 8: But that's what I'm saying y'all niggas beat us to
[34:47] Speaker 8: that point where in the game I'm thinking like bro
[34:49] Speaker 8: who is finna stop these niggas in the playoffs they
[34:52] Speaker 8: finna go back and forth like this They doing spin lobs.
[34:55] Speaker 8: I'm like, how are we going to stop this shit
[34:58] Speaker 8: in the playoffs? That's why I was confused as fuck.
[35:01] Speaker 8: They were with Sacramento, though. Oh, no, you was fighting
[35:04] Speaker 8: by yourself, son.
[35:05] Speaker 2: We knew that.
[35:06] Speaker 3: We knew you was taking that jump.
[35:09] Speaker 5: Every night.
[35:09] Speaker 2: You get jumped. Getting your swings in.
[35:12] Speaker 5: I ain't tripping off no L. I took plenty of them.
[35:16] Speaker 1: But like you said, you're getting blamed for it like
[35:18] Speaker 1: you were in the front office.
[35:21] Speaker 2: That's a hell of a perspective. Years and years later.
[35:25] Speaker 3: I look at the old history and look at the
[35:27] Speaker 3: new history and look at Magic Johnson and Kareem and
[35:31] Speaker 3: you look at the dynamic duel and it seemed like
[35:35] Speaker 3: they were, but there was no negative spin on them anyway.
[35:39] Speaker 3: Even though there was one or two, people thought Magic
[35:42] Speaker 3: Johnson was the number one option.
[35:44] Speaker 5: Obviously he wasn't, but he was the point guard.
[35:46] Speaker 3: Point guard was really never the number one option.
[35:48] Speaker 2: Besides Isaiah Thomas.
[35:49] Speaker 3: But the duel was so in tuned with each other
[35:53] Speaker 3: That the media couldn't get inside them. They couldn't get
[35:56] Speaker 3: inside and break that up. Like Joe Dumars and Isaiah.
[35:59] Speaker 3: You couldn't tear them apart. Today's game, all you have
[36:04] Speaker 3: to do now is just tell the number two nigga
[36:06] Speaker 3: he the number one.
[36:07] Speaker 5: Why he ain't number one? You could be.
[36:09] Speaker 3: You got your own team. And you know us. J.
[36:11] Speaker 2: Kidd really started this.
[36:13] Speaker 3: You right.
[36:13] Speaker 5: I could have my own team. The whole downfall of
[36:17] Speaker 5: Jalen Brown and Jason Taylor. That was J. Kidd.
[36:22] Speaker 9: He was in the interview, and he did exactly what
[36:25] Speaker 9: you said. Like, oh, I think, how can those guys
[36:28] Speaker 9: play together? And ever since then, they ran with the story.
[36:31] Speaker 9: That was J.
[36:31] Speaker 3: Kidd, bro. Amen.
[36:32] Speaker 5: And he was just playing mind games to win the game.
[36:35] Speaker 2: Oh, you were?
[36:35] Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, you were right.
[36:36] Speaker 2: He was just trying to win a.
[36:37] Speaker 5: You know how J.K. operates. He told a lot of fuckers.
[36:40] Speaker 5: When was this? He was with Milwaukee. He was in Dallas.
[36:43] Speaker 5: They went to the championship. We went to the championship.
[36:47] Speaker 3: So he seen Jalen Brown get the Eastern Conference.
[36:51] Speaker 2: He said Jalen is their best player.
[36:53] Speaker 3: So what he did was, he did what anyone else
[36:56] Speaker 3: would do. You the underdog. Let's say they compete themselves. Yeah,
[37:01] Speaker 3: I think Jalen Brown is the best player on the team. Hoping. Hoping.
[37:06] Speaker 5: Get him off.
[37:07] Speaker 2: He's self-destruct.
[37:09] Speaker 5: He's going to start self-destructing.
[37:14] Speaker 4: You know, J.K.
[37:14] Speaker 2: Is my favorite, but J.K. and that is the pettiest
[37:17] Speaker 2: that I have ever heard.
[37:18] Speaker 5: Because it happens.
[37:20] Speaker 2: Get back up, motherfucker.
[37:22] Speaker 3: Time out.
[37:22] Speaker 2: Yeah, he wild. He wild as hell. People don't understand.
[37:25] Speaker 5: Oh.
[37:28] Speaker 3: People don't understand that. Like, when you playing and you
[37:37] Speaker 3: working out, your number two sometimes is just a little
[37:44] Speaker 3: discipline from being number one. Right? Three plays from being
[37:48] Speaker 3: number one. He's right there.
[37:50] Speaker 8: Yeah.
[37:54] Speaker 3: All he needed is someone to say, hey, man, you
[37:57] Speaker 3: really a number one, dog?
[37:58] Speaker 5: Why you thinking like a number two? For something to trigger.
[38:02] Speaker 3: Or two weeks or three weeks of this person being out,
[38:05] Speaker 3: and he going out there triple-double, 50, 45, 50. You
[38:08] Speaker 3: come back, that ain't the same dude no more.
[38:11] Speaker 8: Yeah.
[38:12] Speaker 3: And it is really hard for him to go back
[38:15] Speaker 3: and accept the same role he used to have. Hey,
[38:18] Speaker 3: that's valid. And if you don't know how to talk
[38:20] Speaker 3: to him, If you don't know how to talk to
[38:23] Speaker 3: him and be like, yo, nah, he a number one too. But,
[38:25] Speaker 3: you know, if you don't know how to manipulate that dude.
[38:28] Speaker 2: It's like both of them.
[38:29] Speaker 5: That might have been boss's real situation.
[38:31] Speaker 9: Like, when you break it down like that, I can– Jason,
[38:35] Speaker 9: Jalen Brown having the year that he had, coming out
[38:37] Speaker 9: with the comments that he had, this is my favorite year.
[38:39] Speaker 2: He's like, how am I supposed to go back?
[38:41] Speaker 5: Whatever.
[38:42] Speaker 9: And then you know your real number one is coming back.
[38:45] Speaker 9: It's like, how the hell are we going to make
[38:46] Speaker 9: this work? Jalen Brown went to a whole other level
[38:49] Speaker 9: of play.
[38:50] Speaker 2: Yep.
[38:50] Speaker 5: So who are you to go to him and be like, hey,
[38:53] Speaker 5: I need you to water it down a little bit.
[38:56] Speaker 1: 29 and we're second in the East with none of
[38:57] Speaker 1: this shit.
[38:58] Speaker 5: That could have been a real conversation. T.
[39:00] Speaker 4: Lou used to do that shit to me.
[39:01] Speaker 3: All the time. T.
[39:04] Speaker 5: Lou used to do it?
[39:05] Speaker 3: Get the fuck off.
[39:06] Speaker 2: Get off.
[39:07] Speaker 4: Drop 25, whatever. Think I'm finna get off next game.
[39:12] Speaker 2: Hey, Shubb, I'm glad you had it going.
[39:15] Speaker 5: How'd you go last game?
[39:16] Speaker 4: Yeah, we'll need that out of you, though. You know
[39:18] Speaker 4: what I'm saying?
[39:19] Speaker 8: Like, bra back. Got him back in the lineup. We
[39:21] Speaker 8: got to get his rhythm going. This ain't pickup. That's
[39:25] Speaker 8: what he told me. This ain't pickup. I got a
[39:26] Speaker 8: hoodie made. It say, this ain't pickup. It's a T-Luke quote, y'all.
[39:30] Speaker 8: Y'all haven't seen me wearing it. It's a T-Luke quote
[39:32] Speaker 8: to tell me, hey, bro, I get it. We can
[39:35] Speaker 8: all hoop in the NBA.
[39:37] Speaker 2: Today ain't your day.
[39:38] Speaker 1: Let's shift over to the Jalen Brown side. Jalen Brown's
[39:42] Speaker 1: departure from the Celtics came with some mixed emotions. So
[39:45] Speaker 1: during a recent stream, Brown had this to say about
[39:47] Speaker 1: his return to Boston.
[39:48] Speaker 2: For the first time. It's just life.
[39:52] Speaker 7: It's like running into your ex out in public.
[39:57] Speaker 4: Like, damn, we used to go together.
[39:59] Speaker 8: You feel me?
[40:02] Speaker 4: And you just look at him and just be like, damn.
[40:04] Speaker 7: And you just got to go about your business.
[40:08] Speaker 4: You feel me?
[40:12] Speaker 2: It's facts, though. You feel me?
[40:14] Speaker 8: It's like, damn.
[40:15] Speaker 2: You know what I mean?
[40:16] Speaker 5: So it is what it is, man.
[40:20] Speaker 1: You got to understand where Jay LeBron's coming from comparing
[40:23] Speaker 1: the Celtics to an ex-girlfriend.
[40:25] Speaker 8: He definitely right. He just got to look and say, damn. Yeah,
[40:28] Speaker 8: because if you make too much of a fuss about it,
[40:30] Speaker 8: then we start. Would you still want to go with her?
[40:34] Speaker 8: Can't be fussing about it. You must still like her.
[40:37] Speaker 4: You must still like her. How y'all taking pictures together?
[40:40] Speaker 2: Do you want her to be happy, though, or do
[40:42] Speaker 2: you want to see her downfall?
[40:44] Speaker 5: Always downfall. Okay.
[40:45] Speaker 2: I'm just asking.
[40:46] Speaker 5: Never happy.
[40:47] Speaker 3: It's not happy for you?
[40:49] Speaker 5: No, no, never. Never happy.
[40:52] Speaker 2: No, Tobey Maguire. I'm not presiding over the wedding.
[40:55] Speaker 4: That's still in love. No, Tobey Maguire.
[40:58] Speaker 5: No, no.
[40:58] Speaker 1: I'm presiding over the wedding in the same location that
[41:01] Speaker 1: we got married at.
[41:03] Speaker 2: With the new boo?
[41:04] Speaker 5: New boo?
[41:05] Speaker 3: All right, so y'all want to get the wedding officiant
[41:07] Speaker 3: with the who?
[41:08] Speaker 5: You get traded.
[41:09] Speaker 2: You get traded.
[41:10] Speaker 3: You want your team that just traded you to win
[41:12] Speaker 3: the NBA championship?
[41:13] Speaker 5: No. Okay, then. With the absolute worst.
[41:15] Speaker 3: With the worst.
[41:16] Speaker 5: Same shit. Yeah.
[41:19] Speaker 4: That's not the worst thing. That ain't the worst thing.
[41:22] Speaker 3: I mean, it is because you could have been a champion.
[41:25] Speaker 5: Hope the team go bankrupt.
[41:27] Speaker 3: Bankrupt. I don't want to get his money either.
[41:31] Speaker 1: Do you want them to be a hot pack of ass?
[41:33] Speaker 1: Do you want them to make the playoffs too so
[41:34] Speaker 1: you guys can see each other seven games?
[41:36] Speaker 2: Yeah, I want to see them.
[41:37] Speaker 1: And you can show them, look, this is what y'all missed.
[41:38] Speaker 8: If I'm Jalen Brown, I'm trying to see you as
[41:41] Speaker 8: many games as possible. I want to see you. I
[41:44] Speaker 8: enjoy that part too. I enjoy returning and flexing on you.
[41:49] Speaker 2: Show me. No, but show me. If I'm Jalen Brown,
[41:53] Speaker 2: you have to show me.
[41:54] Speaker 5: If I'm Jason Tatum, you got to show me.
[41:58] Speaker 2: They pushed you over there.
[42:01] Speaker 4: Jaden Brown, same thing.
[42:03] Speaker 2: Bro, they pushed me over here for you.
[42:04] Speaker 9: Let's see it.
[42:08] Speaker 4: You know how I feel about that scare.
[42:09] Speaker 2: It might be the other way around.
[42:11] Speaker 4: Hey.
[42:12] Speaker 5: Hey, show me what you can do without me. Hey.
[42:14] Speaker 2: That's what it is now, though. Chill out, Jason Kidd.
[42:23] Speaker 1: The expectations for that team last season, I mean, I'm
[42:25] Speaker 1: just saying that's what it is. I ain't trying to
[42:27] Speaker 1: start no shit, but we finished second in the East.
[42:29] Speaker 5: Whoa, whoa.
[42:30] Speaker 3: You Jason Kidd now, too?
[42:31] Speaker 5: This is facts, though.
[42:32] Speaker 2: We finished second in the East.
[42:34] Speaker 5: Y'all got rid of me, so y'all think y'all have
[42:37] Speaker 5: to be better. Remember that. Remember that.
[42:40] Speaker 9: In order for the trade to be successful, y'all have
[42:43] Speaker 9: to be better than we were the previous year.
[42:45] Speaker 3: If I dump you, I'll dump you, motherfucker. I got
[42:53] Speaker 3: a new one. You got to come in here and
[42:56] Speaker 3: prove that you shouldn't have been dumped.
[42:59] Speaker 1: But if the new one has bad credit, terrible driving record.
[43:02] Speaker 3: That's my problem.
[43:03] Speaker 2: Again.
[43:04] Speaker 3: It's just like in the club, right?
[43:06] Speaker 5: You in the club.
[43:06] Speaker 3: We in the club. You the one we left.
[43:09] Speaker 5: You coming in here.
[43:10] Speaker 2: Oh, shit.
[43:11] Speaker 5: Max is here.
[43:12] Speaker 3: You the one nervous. We don't give a fuck.
[43:14] Speaker 2: At all.
[43:15] Speaker 5: We don't care.
[43:16] Speaker 3: We playing in the game. I told you what I say.
[43:19] Speaker 5: I said, Jalen Brown is not going to play that game.
[43:24] Speaker 3: He going back to the home he got kicked out of.
[43:26] Speaker 5: So he don't.
[43:27] Speaker 3: Want to be in the game. He don't want to
[43:29] Speaker 3: be out there. And if this was in Philly, he
[43:31] Speaker 3: would have played for sure. But he going back to his,
[43:34] Speaker 3: the place he got kicked out of.
[43:36] Speaker 5: He got, they wanted to trade him.
[43:38] Speaker 4: They did this.
[43:39] Speaker 3: So he's the one who was here. I won the
[43:42] Speaker 3: finals MVP for y'all. I did all of this for y'all,
[43:45] Speaker 3: and y'all gave me the boot.
[43:48] Speaker 5: Right?
[43:48] Speaker 3: So him coming back, he probably wasn't ready yet.
[43:51] Speaker 1: But now I'm coming with my new boot. I didn't
[43:52] Speaker 1: bring her with me this time. But the new boot,
[43:55] Speaker 1: I didn't bring her with me this time.
[43:56] Speaker 3: Because the problem is, you coming back with a new
[43:59] Speaker 3: boot that got bitches. He got lucky.
[44:06] Speaker 5: This is plus threes.
[44:08] Speaker 3: He is the.
[44:10] Speaker 5: Number one option.
[44:12] Speaker 3: Boom. I'm coming back. I'm coming back with a reality
[44:18] Speaker 3: TV group.
[44:19] Speaker 4: I ain't gonna lie.
[44:20] Speaker 5: It's me, him.
[44:22] Speaker 3: It's like being, it's like Dayton Blueface. You should have
[44:24] Speaker 3: never compared it to a little bit, dog.
[44:26] Speaker 4: Just trying to get this conversation back.
[44:27] Speaker 5: Think about it.
[44:28] Speaker 3: It's like, it's like Dayton Blueface right now. How many
[44:30] Speaker 3: bitches he got in rotation?
[44:32] Speaker 4: See, this is, you want to read.
[44:34] Speaker 3: None of them feel like they're the only ones right now.
[44:37] Speaker 4: You need to do an ad read before he starts.
[44:39] Speaker 3: Before he starts, you know.
[44:42] Speaker 2: Right?
[44:42] Speaker 3: It's like he got, he got the, the, the Jaden.
[44:46] Speaker 3: She thinks she's still the one? You got Chris, right?
[44:49] Speaker 3: Then you got Nydia, whatever. You got all three, all
[44:51] Speaker 3: three of them.
[44:52] Speaker 8: And remember, y'all got a clip of y'all's dick. Y'all
[44:54] Speaker 8: are successful. I have been seeing it, too. I have
[44:56] Speaker 8: no clue what's going on. But sometimes it is funny
[44:58] Speaker 8: and entertaining.
[44:59] Speaker 2: Y'all gonna laugh?
[45:00] Speaker 5: I'm just saying.
[45:01] Speaker 3: So it's like he's coming back with LeBron James, NB,
[45:04] Speaker 3: what's the name? So he ain't... Yeah, he coming back
[45:06] Speaker 3: with a whole team, but it's like.
[45:10] Speaker 2: You ain't by yourself.
[45:11] Speaker 3: You ain't going to be winning no more, MVP.
[45:13] Speaker 2: We ain't fighting for no MVPs.
[45:14] Speaker 1: Do you feel like coming back with that crew, there's not,
[45:17] Speaker 1: I won't say pressure on Jalen Brown, but I got
[45:18] Speaker 1: to perform at a high level. I got to be
[45:20] Speaker 1: the top dog. And will the rest of the team
[45:22] Speaker 1: understand that and let that be the game? But drop
[45:26] Speaker 1: your 30 in the Celtics game so we can keep that.
[45:29] Speaker 9: If he wins a chip, I think that does it
[45:31] Speaker 9: all right there. He's already done that.
[45:34] Speaker 3: He did that.
[45:35] Speaker 2: He really has nothing to prove.
[45:38] Speaker 5: The guy that has something to prove is Jason Tatum.
[45:41] Speaker 5: Not really, because we've done it too. But where's the ball?
[45:45] Speaker 3: We've done it together.
[45:48] Speaker 4: Where's the finals MVP?
[45:49] Speaker 3: We don't have a finals MVP. Yeah, I don't have
[45:52] Speaker 3: a finals MVP, but I got a finals. I got
[45:54] Speaker 3: an Eastern Conference MVP. You beat me on the finals MVP,
[45:57] Speaker 3: but we got the same shit.
[45:58] Speaker 5: No, you don't.
[45:59] Speaker 3: In a sense, you still looking for your individual accolades.
[46:02] Speaker 3: I'm looking for one trophy. You still looking for more
[46:04] Speaker 3: all NBAs.
[46:04] Speaker 4: Y'all got the trophy.
[46:05] Speaker 3: No, I'm just saying, you looking for more all NBAs, right?
[46:08] Speaker 3: You looking for this. Like, Jalen Brown, like, if I'm
[46:11] Speaker 3: Jalen Brown and I just, like.
[46:15] Speaker 4: Are you saying he traded in the rest of his
[46:17] Speaker 4: accolade list?
[46:18] Speaker 2: To go to Philly.
[46:19] Speaker 5: Because it's not, I don't think they traded.
[46:21] Speaker 3: I don't want to go there. Because I, like, I'm
[46:24] Speaker 3: fighting to be who the number one option now. I'm
[46:26] Speaker 3: fighting as the number one option now. So I get
[46:28] Speaker 3: to run my team. I get to be in the
[46:30] Speaker 3: MVP battle. I get to do what you're doing. We
[46:33] Speaker 3: both here.
[46:34] Speaker 4: Now I'm behind three points.
[46:37] Speaker 3: So now, like, yeah, I might win another ring, but
[46:40] Speaker 3: I lose myself as an individual where we was trying
[46:43] Speaker 3: to see who's who.
[46:44] Speaker 2: I don't think so.
[46:45] Speaker 8: I'm saying, ain't nobody over there got no jury but mine. Yeah,
[46:51] Speaker 8: but Ain't nobody got no jury.
[46:54] Speaker 2: No, no, no.
[46:54] Speaker 5: You're saying he's not going to be the number one option? Yeah,
[46:56] Speaker 5: number one.
[46:57] Speaker 3: Who's going to be the number one?
[46:59] Speaker 5: But I'm saying I don't get the MVP votes. I'm
[47:01] Speaker 5: not going to.
[47:02] Speaker 3: He's not going to get that.
[47:03] Speaker 5: Yeah, he's not going to get the MVP. But that's
[47:04] Speaker 5: what I'm saying. MVP votes, the first team all NBAs.
[47:06] Speaker 5: He might get that. I might get third team because
[47:08] Speaker 5: there's so much balance.
[47:09] Speaker 3: Why do you think he won't get first team?
[47:10] Speaker 2: Or he can finagle, Gil.
[47:12] Speaker 5: Why do you think he playing with it?
[47:13] Speaker 3: He's healthy.
[47:14] Speaker 5: He's going to miss games. Or he's going to miss games.
[47:17] Speaker 2: It's hard.
[47:18] Speaker 5: When you averaging 28 and 9.
[47:19] Speaker 4: I think it's going to be a lot easier with
[47:21] Speaker 4: Tyrese Maxey.
[47:22] Speaker 5: I'm just talking about number wise.
[47:24] Speaker 3: That's what I mean.
[47:25] Speaker 4: Tyrese Maxey shares sugar.
[47:27] Speaker 8: Tyrese Maxey shares sugar.
[47:30] Speaker 4: He shares sugar.
[47:31] Speaker 3: I was sharing sugar with another motherfucker right here.
[47:33] Speaker 2: Just one.
[47:34] Speaker 5: Now I got to share with three names.
[47:38] Speaker 4: Bron is a sugar sharer. Bron's like the best next
[47:41] Speaker 4: door neighbor ever.
[47:43] Speaker 5: How many games they playing this year?
[47:44] Speaker 3: It don't matter. We can say the nigga going to
[47:46] Speaker 3: play 10. That nigga might play 50.
[47:49] Speaker 1: But you know Jalen Brown's going to try to play
[47:50] Speaker 1: at least 70.
[47:51] Speaker 5: I know. I'm young.
[47:53] Speaker 8: Jalen Brown's going to get his 25-30 even if you
[47:56] Speaker 8: put him on an all-star team.
[47:58] Speaker 1: Some of these dudes might not be 65-game eligible anyway,
[48:00] Speaker 1: so by default, if he's smart playing chess, I'm going
[48:04] Speaker 1: to play over 70.
[48:06] Speaker 5: Okay, I don't know what type of NBA player y'all
[48:07] Speaker 5: want to be.
[48:09] Speaker 3: I didn't want to be a type of NBA player
[48:10] Speaker 3: wishing other niggas got hurt so I can qualify.
[48:13] Speaker 5: No, I'm not saying that. I'm saying based off their age,
[48:16] Speaker 5: based off their injury history.
[48:18] Speaker 2: I want to be by myself.
[48:18] Speaker 5: You're going to miss games.
[48:19] Speaker 1: If I put the calculations in, this nigga not playing
[48:22] Speaker 1: 65 games.
[48:23] Speaker 5: I'm like, Kobe, I got my three rings.
[48:24] Speaker 3: I need to show y'all who the fuck I am now. Like,
[48:29] Speaker 3: I got three rings.
[48:30] Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm a champion.
[48:31] Speaker 3: Cool. But y'all don't know who I am. I need
[48:35] Speaker 3: to fly. I need to show the world why they
[48:37] Speaker 3: need to be scared of me for a couple years.
[48:39] Speaker 3: Let me go and terrorize you motherfuckers for a couple
[48:42] Speaker 3: years and then we can go back to winning again.
[48:44] Speaker 3: Like everyone has those moments where let me terrorize it
[48:48] Speaker 3: just a little bit.
[48:49] Speaker 2: But we don't know if Jalen Brown coming to terrorize yet.
[48:52] Speaker 5: We averaged 28 last year.
[48:54] Speaker 4: No, no, no.
[48:54] Speaker 8: I'm saying Tyrese Max, you don't know if he going
[48:57] Speaker 8: to go in there and fit in. He might go
[48:59] Speaker 8: in that bitch and be like, hey, give me that motherfucker.
[49:02] Speaker 8: We don't know what he did yet.
[49:04] Speaker 4: You know what I'm saying?
[49:06] Speaker 8: I'm just saying, y'all doing a whole lot of hype
[49:08] Speaker 8: in this man with this ex-girlfriend shit.
[49:10] Speaker 2: Yeah, Jason Kidd over here.
[49:11] Speaker 3: Imagine going to a team, you think you're about to
[49:13] Speaker 3: tap in, and you got a nigga like that sitting
[49:15] Speaker 3: over there.
[49:15] Speaker 5: Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
[49:18] Speaker 3: What's up, big fella?
[49:18] Speaker 5: That's so lucky.
[49:19] Speaker 4: He ain't in B. That's going to go way different.
[49:23] Speaker 4: In B, they're saying nice.
[49:24] Speaker 5: I'm a nice guy.
[49:25] Speaker 2: I just want to hit the ball. Very nice.
[49:27] Speaker 5: Yeah, pleasure to work with you.
[49:28] Speaker 2: We watching.
[49:29] Speaker 5: We watching.
[49:29] Speaker 2: Nice guy, motherfucker.
[49:31] Speaker 3: We watching.
[49:32] Speaker 2: We watching.
[49:33] Speaker 4: Yeah, you a nice guy.
[49:34] Speaker 2: You got yourself when you're hungry. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
[49:37] Speaker 5: We all nice when we get older. Yeah, there, the
[49:40] Speaker 5: real talk. I'm actually going the other way, man. I
[49:42] Speaker 5: ain't fucking around that old age, man.
[49:44] Speaker 2: Okay. Nah, nah, me too.
[49:45] Speaker 8: I ain't gonna lie, the older I get, I do
[49:47] Speaker 8: be laughing and shit. I thought I'd be grumpy and shit.
[49:50] Speaker 8: I ain't grumpy.
[49:51] Speaker 5: Nah. I ain't going to be grumpy. I'm going to
[49:52] Speaker 5: be a straight shooter, though.
[49:54] Speaker 2: I feel like if you get older, you can always
[49:56] Speaker 2: be a straight shooter.
[49:57] Speaker 5: Just that old man say whatever the fuck he want.
[49:59] Speaker 3: Yeah, like your feelings. We ain't got there yet. I'm
[50:01] Speaker 3: working there. When you're 60 and you just don't give
[50:03] Speaker 3: a fuck, yeah, we ain't got there yet. Says this nigga.
[50:11] Speaker 2: We are getting up there.
[50:12] Speaker 1: All right, let's keep this thing moving, though. All right,
[50:14] Speaker 1: it's time to try and finesse some bread on Polymarket.
[50:17] Speaker 1: This is Put That On Something. We're going to give
[50:19] Speaker 1: you a trade on the Polymarket app. You got to
[50:21] Speaker 1: pick a side and put that on something. So week
[50:23] Speaker 1: five of the NFL season concludes with a Monday night
[50:25] Speaker 1: showdown in Los Angeles between the Bills and Rams, which
[50:29] Speaker 1: should be a quarterback duel between Josh Allen, Matthew Stafford,
[50:33] Speaker 1: and a potential Super Bowl 61 preview.
[50:35] Speaker 2: Aaron Donald also back. Let's take a look.
[50:37] Speaker 1: At what's going down right now on Polymarket. Rams, heavy
[50:40] Speaker 1: favorites in this game. 62% of traders picking them to
[50:43] Speaker 1: get the win. Rams 2-2 this season. While 38% of
[50:47] Speaker 1: traders are rolling with the Bills. But let's take it
[50:50] Speaker 1: to the couch. Boogie, we'll start with you. Another unfortunate
[50:52] Speaker 1: week for our Raiders, but who's winning, the Bills or Rams?
[50:56] Speaker 9: I'm going to go Rams. And Donald on the way back.
[50:59] Speaker 9: Hopefully he got, you know, some good rest. Got his
[51:02] Speaker 9: body in order. Recharged a little bit, but... I mean,
[51:06] Speaker 9: Rams paid for it this year, so I expect them
[51:09] Speaker 9: to win every game.
[51:10] Speaker 2: Made sound investment.
[51:11] Speaker 5: Yeah.
[51:12] Speaker 2: Like the Polymarket app. The Rams are a sound investor.
[51:16] Speaker 4: Good trades.
[51:17] Speaker 5: They shouldn't lose a fucking game.
[51:19] Speaker 2: Well, they're going to lose. Had to go to Australia.
[51:22] Speaker 2: They ain't want to be there. Familiar with their game, Aussie. Yeah.
[51:26] Speaker 2: Long playing flash.
[51:26] Speaker 4: They're going to lose. It's not their year to win.
[51:31] Speaker 5: Last time they paid for it, they.
[51:33] Speaker 4: Won it, so. No, I get it. It's just this year.
[51:35] Speaker 8: L.A.
[51:36] Speaker 2: Sports teams like to invest in winning.
[51:38] Speaker 5: At least with money.
[51:39] Speaker 2: No, for sure. It's just this year.
[51:42] Speaker 4: This year is just tough.
[51:43] Speaker 2: With Bill's Rams game, Monday night, who are you taking,
[51:45] Speaker 2: the Bills or the Rams? I'll take the Rams.
[51:49] Speaker 1: I'm 68% or rocking with the Rams. You guys did
[51:51] Speaker 1: this recently with the Cowboys.
[51:53] Speaker 5: I hope the Rams.
[51:54] Speaker 3: They ended up getting embarrassed. I mean, I'm not a
[51:57] Speaker 3: Cowboy fan. I was just doing what everybody else was doing.
[51:59] Speaker 3: I was just bandwagon jumping.
[52:01] Speaker 2: That's it. Jersey flipping. But Gil, who you taking? I'm
[52:05] Speaker 2: going to ask. I know the answer. Or are you
[52:09] Speaker 2: going to do some sneaky? L.A.
[52:09] Speaker 5: Rams, man.
[52:10] Speaker 2: Okay.
[52:11] Speaker 5: Well, if you have a name. I thought you was
[52:13] Speaker 5: a Chargers fan. Hell no. What the fuck is a Chargers?
[52:17] Speaker 2: Throw that out there. What the fuck.
[52:19] Speaker 3: Is a Chargers?
[52:20] Speaker 5: I thought you was a Chargers fan. No, I mean,
[52:22] Speaker 5: I did because I didn't have a football. I realized
[52:24] Speaker 5: I didn't have a football team. What? Did you wake
[52:28] Speaker 5: up one day and say, I like the players.
[52:30] Speaker 2: Like, I was... Oh, but, like, growing up.
[52:32] Speaker 5: Yeah, I was like, yeah, nah.
[52:33] Speaker 3: I just picked the players I like, and that was
[52:35] Speaker 3: just it. And then I was kind of like a
[52:38] Speaker 3: Raiders fan. And then I realized, if you wear that,
[52:41] Speaker 3: you a gangbanger.
[52:43] Speaker 2: So... You need a jerry curl?
[52:45] Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
[52:46] Speaker 8: In L.A.
[52:46] Speaker 4: To wear a jerry curl.
[52:46] Speaker 5: That was real. You a gangbanger. Hell yeah.
[52:49] Speaker 3: Hell yeah.
[52:50] Speaker 5: If you was a L.A.
[52:51] Speaker 2: L.A.
[52:51] Speaker 3: L.A.
[52:52] Speaker 5: Had some scary times.
[52:54] Speaker 3: If you wear any sports shit, you a gangbanger. But
[52:57] Speaker 3: back then, just black and white just... What does that mean?
[53:01] Speaker 3: If black and white, you got blue, then you're crip.
[53:03] Speaker 3: Black and white, red, you're blood. Couldn't really wear any
[53:06] Speaker 3: of those.
[53:06] Speaker 5: But you start off black and white, you got to
[53:08] Speaker 5: be from somewhere. That's crazy.
[53:10] Speaker 8: In Chicago, we wear black and red on a regular day.
[53:13] Speaker 3: Like, that's nothing.
[53:14] Speaker 5: Y'all had to turn the hat to the side. Because
[53:17] Speaker 5: it's the blue.
[53:18] Speaker 2: That's a little different. Yeah, exactly.
[53:20] Speaker 8: And we could tell the difference, too, though. It's not
[53:22] Speaker 8: how people think. Like, you could tell when somebody trying
[53:25] Speaker 8: to gangbang.
[53:26] Speaker 2: Over there? In Chicago. Like somebody wear their hat.
[53:29] Speaker 8: Super to the left or super to the right. Like
[53:31] Speaker 8: you know what they throwing. Yeah, they flagging something. But
[53:34] Speaker 8: they doing that for other people that bang. They ain't
[53:37] Speaker 8: doing that for Neutrons.
[53:39] Speaker 3: Listen, the best thing that ever happened in L.A.
[53:42] Speaker 5: Was the clown walk.
[53:45] Speaker 2: What?
[53:45] Speaker 3: The clown walk? Oh, yeah, because, you know, you had
[53:49] Speaker 3: the Crip Walk, right? Now, think about who just want
[53:52] Speaker 3: to dance in school, right? And who knew how to
[53:55] Speaker 3: do the moves, but if you did it, you was
[53:58] Speaker 3: a gangbanger. So when they kind of altered it a
[54:01] Speaker 3: little bit and Tommy the Clown came out with the
[54:03] Speaker 3: Clown Walk, it kind of said, okay, listen, if you're
[54:06] Speaker 3: doing this dance, this version of it, you're cool.
[54:10] Speaker 4: That's why everybody loved Tommy the Clown?
[54:13] Speaker 2: Yeah.
[54:14] Speaker 5: He made it safe for everybody.
[54:17] Speaker 3: Everybody else to do the dance without being labeled. So, like,
[54:21] Speaker 3: if you look at an OG crip, they are doing
[54:25] Speaker 3: the old school, that lets you know he's a banger.
[54:28] Speaker 5: Like, if you look at Blueface, that's a banger. Anybody
[54:32] Speaker 5: else who's doing it.
[54:32] Speaker 3: Commercialized, like, he gave it a commercial feel to it. So,
[54:36] Speaker 3: when some, like, if a gangster look at it and say, like, alright, alright,
[54:39] Speaker 3: too fast, jumpy up and down, alright, he ain't banging.
[54:43] Speaker 2: And a big clown wig, I think, really... You didn't
[54:46] Speaker 2: have to work.
[54:47] Speaker 4: You didn't have to work.
[54:48] Speaker 2: I get what you're saying.
[54:49] Speaker 4: No, but you know the difference.
[54:50] Speaker 8: There's certain people that crip walk, and you be like, damn,
[54:52] Speaker 8: he really know how to, but they doing certain things.
[54:56] Speaker 1: Elaborate steps, no. Crippin' since Ben Crippin', since Ben.
[55:01] Speaker 3: Crippin'. Valley boy, we used to get on to the party,
[55:03] Speaker 3: couldn't wait to go to a house party, baby.

[55:39] Speaker 5: Because it's not funny.
[55:41] Speaker 3: But the person who said it, it was funny at
[55:44] Speaker 3: the time because of everything that went in.
[55:46] Speaker 5: I'm not going to repeat.
[55:50] Speaker 8: It.
[55:51] Speaker 5: It's another dance out there.
[55:52] Speaker 2: The dude didn't dance.
[55:55] Speaker 5: He was just laying there on the floor.
[55:56] Speaker 4: I don't want to be a part of this. He
[55:57] Speaker 4: got shot.
[55:58] Speaker 5: Huh?
[55:59] Speaker 3: Yeah.
[56:00] Speaker 2: I'm going to keep this.
[56:03] Speaker 3: I did laugh at it because through the circumstances.
[56:05] Speaker 2: It was like, okay, that's Dr. Q.

[56:10] Speaker 1: All right, so we got some great fan questions today.
[56:12] Speaker 1: $ 20 in the chat from my little brother, Mariah. Shout out,
[56:16] Speaker 1: I am Mariah J. For all the Baldwin Hills fans
[56:18] Speaker 1: out there. He said, who is one person that hasn't
[56:21] Speaker 1: been to the arena yet that y'all want to see?
[56:23] Speaker 1: One person that hasn't been to the arena yet that
[56:25] Speaker 1: y'all want to see? Big Baby. This year? Big Baby
[56:31] Speaker 1: in the arena. Big Baby want to shoot. Big Baby
[56:35] Speaker 1: want to shoot.
[56:37] Speaker 8: But.
[56:40] Speaker 3: Y'all gotta watch the video first.
[56:43] Speaker 5: Y'all gotta watch the video first. I want them on
[56:46] Speaker 5: the couch.
[56:49] Speaker 3: I want them to sit right here.
[56:56] Speaker 5: We gotta work on that, man. Boom, okay, yeah, I'm
[57:04] Speaker 5: just trying to figure out the power.
[57:07] Speaker 3: Boom, okay.
[57:09] Speaker 2: Big baby gonna shoot, Gil.
[57:12] Speaker 3: I'm not mad at that one.
[57:14] Speaker 5: I'm not mad at that one. You gotta get the
[57:19] Speaker 5: name on the couch, though.
[57:22] Speaker 1: I'd like to see Obama. We can take him to
[57:26] Speaker 1: the court and see if his jumper is really broke.
[57:28] Speaker 1: Ask people, Clay. Big baby in Obama. D-Rose.
[57:36] Speaker 5: I was thinking D-Rose. Let's get Russ in here.
[57:42] Speaker 2: Yeah, why people don't talk to Russ? I think Russ
[57:45] Speaker 2: doesn't talk to D-Rose.
[57:46] Speaker 9: Russ told me after retirement he's going to start doing
[57:50] Speaker 9: his interview.
[57:50] Speaker 5: I think it's the time.
[57:52] Speaker 3: And that's the same thing with D-Rose because it's like
[57:54] Speaker 3: now that he's done.
[57:56] Speaker 5: I can say what I want. Yeah, he gets to be,
[57:59] Speaker 5: like his personality is coming out. You know what I mean? Like,
[58:02] Speaker 5: he'd smile.
[58:03] Speaker 3: You know, before he was just cold, cold, calculated.
[58:06] Speaker 2: I don't smile.
[58:07] Speaker 5: Huh?
[58:07] Speaker 4: I don't know, man.
[58:09] Speaker 3: You get a commercial smile.
[58:12] Speaker 5: Like, it was just like, think about Cole. When he retired.
[58:14] Speaker 2: Oh, yeah.
[58:15] Speaker 5: Full personality. He was a nice guy. He was a
[58:18] Speaker 5: nice guy.
[58:19] Speaker 4: He was great.
[58:20] Speaker 3: He was a great guy.
[58:21] Speaker 4: He was such a great guy.
[58:22] Speaker 3: Like, so much. He was so nice.
[58:24] Speaker 2: You know, you got shoes?
[58:28] Speaker 5: Get you some shoes. Everything okay?
[58:30] Speaker 3: Yeah.
[58:31] Speaker 8: Asking about the family.
[58:35] Speaker 2: How's the family?
[58:36] Speaker 4: Russell's a good one, too.
[58:37] Speaker 3: Now that he's retired, he's chilling.
[58:40] Speaker 1: Russell Westbrook, if you're watching this show, please pull up.
[58:42] Speaker 1: We will put you on the security clearance.
[58:46] Speaker 3: He's zero. He's in the Raptors. A double zero? But
[58:53] Speaker 3: are double zeros allowed, too? Double zeros? Or just zeros?
[58:59] Speaker 5: Like, when Melo.
[59:00] Speaker 2: Had it, I was like... Nasty. That was nasty. It
[59:03] Speaker 2: was so nasty.
[59:04] Speaker 5: Like, I was just, like, have 07 or something. I
[59:07] Speaker 5: don't know. Just 07.
[59:08] Speaker 2: That's a jerk. You low key onto something though. Why
[59:16] Speaker 2: we can't do that?
[59:17] Speaker 5: 007. 007.
[59:18] Speaker 3: You know motherfuckers be lazy. When I played you couldn't
[59:25] Speaker 3: have 0-0. You couldn't have.
[59:26] Speaker 5: 0 and 00.
[59:30] Speaker 2: On the same team? Yeah.
[59:32] Speaker 5: That was the only number.
[59:34] Speaker 3: Double zero is just a wild number. Yeah, Brendan Haywood
[59:37] Speaker 3: had double zero. So when I was coming in with zero.
[59:40] Speaker 5: That's a nasty number.
[59:41] Speaker 3: And he was like, yeah, you can't have it together.
[59:42] Speaker 5: So I had to pay him.
[59:43] Speaker 4: I was so lucky I wasn't on that team. The
[59:44] Speaker 4: amount of jokes I'd have had for a double zero.
[59:47] Speaker 2: I had to pay him to get out the jersey.
[59:49] Speaker 8: Well, I'd have been sending that nigga two speakers next
[59:52] Speaker 8: to each other.
[59:55] Speaker 4: Every time a woman wear a shirt worth showing anything,
[59:58] Speaker 4: I'm going to send him that motherfucker like, you're huge.
[1:00:00] Speaker 4: That's you.
[1:00:01] Speaker 2: That's you.
[1:00:02] Speaker 4: 100% that's you.
[1:00:03] Speaker 1: All right, so we got a comment from Jonathan Everett Ferguson.
[1:00:06] Speaker 1: He said, Cameron Boozer is a 6'10 LeBron James 3.0
[1:00:10] Speaker 1: rookie of the year.
[1:00:12] Speaker 2: That's the comment.
[1:00:12] Speaker 5: So you're going to get mad at them? Like you
[1:00:14] Speaker 5: got mad at them?
[1:00:15] Speaker 2: No, that's some bullshit. LeBron James 3.0. I give them grace.
[1:00:19] Speaker 2: Fans get grace.
[1:00:20] Speaker 5: So you're saying I was wrong?
[1:00:22] Speaker 3: Huh?
[1:00:23] Speaker 5: No, no, no.
[1:00:24] Speaker 2: I'm saying... Well, you said.
[1:00:25] Speaker 3: I said by fact.
[1:00:27] Speaker 5: When I said Cooper Flagg... I said by fact.
[1:00:31] Speaker 4: By fact and what your argument was, I can't say
[1:00:34] Speaker 4: you wrong.
[1:00:36] Speaker 2: We got some good ones in the chat.
[1:00:37] Speaker 3: All right. That's cool. I'm cool with the standard.
[1:00:41] Speaker 5: I should have started some family feuding over there.
[1:00:43] Speaker 3: You know, I think Boozer better than his daddy was.
[1:00:50] Speaker 2: He's going to have a better.
[1:00:51] Speaker 8: He's going to end up with a better.
[1:00:53] Speaker 3: His daddy dunked on me for no reason. And flexed.
[1:00:58] Speaker 3: You're too big to be flexing, but... I'm sorry, booze.
[1:01:00] Speaker 3: I tried to take a charge and he jumped over.
[1:01:06] Speaker 3: He fought for the Bulls, man. I think it sucks
[1:01:10] Speaker 3: to just change his number to a real number.
[1:01:11] Speaker 8: He was bogus for that Beijing game, though. That Beijing
[1:01:14] Speaker 8: game was bogus.
[1:01:16] Speaker 5: They always try to hold on to the last hand.
[1:01:18] Speaker 8: But, gang, it didn't make no sense. It was so unnecessary.
[1:01:21] Speaker 8: It started bleeding off.
[1:01:23] Speaker 5: Ice cream paint job.
[1:01:25] Speaker 2: Yeah, come on. What you saying?
[1:01:28] Speaker 7: What?
[1:01:29] Speaker 3: An ice cream paint job? It's crazy. Hey, yo.
[1:01:35] Speaker 4: Hey, yo.
[1:01:38] Speaker 1: So we have a question from Blue Wild Angel. It's
[1:01:41] Speaker 1: for Iman.
[1:01:42] Speaker 4: I'm taking that one.
[1:01:42] Speaker 3: I ain't going to hold you.
[1:01:44] Speaker 4: I'm putting that in my pocket.
[1:01:46] Speaker 2: What's up?
[1:01:47] Speaker 1: So Iman, what was it like to see Kyrie go
[1:01:49] Speaker 1: nuclear against the Spurs back in 2015 when he dropped
[1:01:51] Speaker 1: 57 joints?
[1:01:53] Speaker 5: Crazy.
[1:01:54] Speaker 8: That was another game that we spent. It was a
[1:01:57] Speaker 8: lot like how we was watching Mello score the 60.
[1:01:59] Speaker 8: It was just like you start realizing somebody hot, but
[1:02:04] Speaker 8: then on the court after a while, you stop, like,
[1:02:07] Speaker 8: your celebrations start changing because you realize, like.
[1:02:09] Speaker 4: Oh, you ain't going to miss.
[1:02:13] Speaker 8: But I could see, like, even how you were shooting three. Like,
[1:02:15] Speaker 8: Kyrie don't shoot this many threes. You feeling real good
[1:02:19] Speaker 8: shooting threes. The fadeaway three with the foot out.
[1:02:24] Speaker 3: Oh, damn.
[1:02:25] Speaker 8: Kyrie don't get like that. Like, he was getting crazy
[1:02:28] Speaker 8: that game. But, yeah, he was just in his own, man.
[1:02:32] Speaker 8: Nothing too crazy going on. Y'all seen Kyrie. He getting
[1:02:35] Speaker 8: them zones a lot.
[1:02:36] Speaker 2: It's just.
[1:02:38] Speaker 8: We didn't have nobody else to pass the ball to
[1:02:41] Speaker 8: that game. He was really the only one cooking like that.
[1:02:45] Speaker 2: We have a question from RG Basketball.
[1:02:47] Speaker 1: He said, if you take MJ in his prime in
[1:02:49] Speaker 1: this NBA, how much would he average and what team
[1:02:52] Speaker 1: would be a problem if you add him to their
[1:02:54] Speaker 1: roster now?
[1:02:55] Speaker 2: I feel like any team you add MJ to the roster. Yeah,
[1:02:57] Speaker 2: but he would.
[1:02:57] Speaker 4: Probably average, I'd say like 61.
[1:03:00] Speaker 5: I'm going different. Analytics is going to hate on him.
[1:03:03] Speaker 4: No, but he's going to average about 62.
[1:03:05] Speaker 2: Yeah, he don't give a fuck about analytics. What you think? Who?
[1:03:08] Speaker 4: Mike.
[1:03:08] Speaker 5: He'll average like 62. You know, Mike like that middie, though.
[1:03:12] Speaker 2: That's what I'm saying. That's why I say 62.
[1:03:13] Speaker 5: In today's game, they tell you not to even shoot it.
[1:03:15] Speaker 2: That's cool.
[1:03:16] Speaker 4: He'll make 30 middies.
[1:03:16] Speaker 2: They're going to hate him. Because you can't touch him. Yeah,
[1:03:18] Speaker 2: they're going to hate him.
[1:03:19] Speaker 4: You can't foul.
[1:03:19] Speaker 5: You know what's so funny? They was fouling the fuck
[1:03:21] Speaker 5: out of him.
[1:03:22] Speaker 3: They don't like the middie, but all of our superstars
[1:03:25] Speaker 3: shoot the middie.
[1:03:25] Speaker 5: Shoot the middie. Every great player. Except for Steph. Except
[1:03:30] Speaker 5: for Steph.
[1:03:31] Speaker 4: And he could. He just doesn't.
[1:03:33] Speaker 2: He just doesn't. You just can shoot from so far.
[1:03:37] Speaker 3: Yeah, his shooting meeting when he wants the big to
[1:03:41] Speaker 3: come out that space.
[1:03:42] Speaker 4: He'll hug the three.
[1:03:42] Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
[1:03:43] Speaker 3: He'll hug the three.
[1:03:44] Speaker 5: Heels on the line.
[1:03:47] Speaker 4: But stuff like that, man.
[1:03:51] Speaker 3: If you're an analytic guy, you're doing this justice to
[1:03:54] Speaker 3: everyone else. My son was like, yo.
[1:03:58] Speaker 5: Yo, I need to shoot like Steph.
[1:04:00] Speaker 2: Nigga, let it go.
[1:04:01] Speaker 5: Let it go. You got to start... At the age
[1:04:05] Speaker 5: he started.
[1:04:06] Speaker 3: You jump too high. You already got a 40-inch vertical
[1:04:09] Speaker 3: at fucking 14.
[1:04:10] Speaker 2: Your brain can't pick the three.
[1:04:12] Speaker 3: You're not going to sit here and shoot threes all
[1:04:14] Speaker 3: day and learn the fundamentals of it.
[1:04:18] Speaker 5: Everything plays.
[1:04:19] Speaker 2: He was weak.
[1:04:20] Speaker 3: He had to shoot from his hip. He had to
[1:04:22] Speaker 3: perfect this one thing first. And then he dialed that in.
[1:04:26] Speaker 3: He had to mentally understand what he didn't have.
[1:04:29] Speaker 2: Yes.
[1:04:30] Speaker 5: You know what I mean?
[1:04:31] Speaker 3: So he's already dialing in to the 10,000. You know
[1:04:36] Speaker 3: what I mean? So you can't be that. You're six
[1:04:40] Speaker 3: years in front. So anybody in the NBA right now
[1:04:42] Speaker 3: that you want to be Steph Curry, think about the
[1:04:45] Speaker 3: time you're.
[1:04:46] Speaker 5: Steph Curry shooting. You're 60.
[1:04:47] Speaker 2: Shut up.
[1:04:48] Speaker 5: Let it go. You got to start at six, seven
[1:04:52] Speaker 5: years old.
[1:04:53] Speaker 2: Real talk. Real talk. And you got to have his genes.
[1:04:57] Speaker 2: His dad can shoot it.
[1:04:58] Speaker 5: So doing analytics on him? Stop doing analytics on master
[1:05:05] Speaker 5: type guys.
[1:05:07] Speaker 3: You know what I mean? Those are the guys you
[1:05:09] Speaker 3: can't do the rest of the field with.
[1:05:11] Speaker 5: Man. You ain't lying.
[1:05:14] Speaker 3: Let me teach you how to be Jokic.
[1:05:16] Speaker 5: Average a triple-double.
[1:05:16] Speaker 3: Stop.
[1:05:19] Speaker 2: Go ahead and teach him.
[1:05:19] Speaker 3: Come on, Rudy Goldberg. Let's go get you.
[1:05:22] Speaker 2: A triple-double out here.
[1:05:23] Speaker 4: He's been throwing behind the back down the baseline.
[1:05:26] Speaker 3: That nigga been doing it since he was a little kid.
[1:05:27] Speaker 3: You talking about teaching niggas now.
[1:05:29] Speaker 8: Yeah, besides Braun, I don't think I've seen anybody else
[1:05:33] Speaker 8: just do that.
[1:05:34] Speaker 2: Do what?
[1:05:35] Speaker 8: Be in a post-up and throw a behind-the-back pass that
[1:05:39] Speaker 8: surprises all of us. Like, they don't throw the pass like,
[1:05:43] Speaker 8: I get it if he open, you seen him, you
[1:05:45] Speaker 8: hit him.
[1:05:46] Speaker 5: I could do that.
[1:05:49] Speaker 4: We all here to touch.
[1:05:52] Speaker 3: Yoke is just throwing this motherfucker knowing.
[1:05:54] Speaker 4: That this man here can't see the ball. He just touching.
[1:05:58] Speaker 8: But he knowing you can see me. Like, that's insane
[1:06:01] Speaker 8: to me, dog. I'm like, bro, that could be. That's
[1:06:05] Speaker 8: like the Pistol Pete movie when he threw the ball
[1:06:07] Speaker 8: and broke dude's nose.
[1:06:08] Speaker 3: And he's like, but he knew he was open. I'd
[1:06:12] Speaker 3: have thought. You know what I'm saying?
[1:06:14] Speaker 5: You ever go back and watch Pistol Pete?
[1:06:17] Speaker 2: Yeah.
[1:06:20] Speaker 4: How was he growing up in that era?
[1:06:22] Speaker 2: Yes. It make no sense.
[1:06:26] Speaker 5: It's just like, huh? I've seen one person.
[1:06:29] Speaker 2: You want to know who else?
[1:06:30] Speaker 5: White Chocolate? Nah, you remember, I think he from, you
[1:06:34] Speaker 5: remember Malcolm Lee?
[1:06:36] Speaker 2: Wow, from UCLA? Yeah, I remember Malcolm Lee.
[1:06:39] Speaker 5: Malcolm, coming out of high school, that was his shit.
[1:06:41] Speaker 5: The whole peak, man. That was his shit.
[1:06:46] Speaker 2: That was his shit.
[1:06:47] Speaker 8: He used to do a lot of taking the bigs
[1:06:49] Speaker 8: up in that little duck off pass.
[1:06:52] Speaker 2: He could do that.
[1:06:53] Speaker 8: He'd jump up, have everybody up in the air, but
[1:06:55] Speaker 8: he was good at like, like he said.
[1:06:58] Speaker 5: He had that trickery, bro.
[1:07:00] Speaker 2: It was crazy.
[1:07:01] Speaker 4: It was very elusive.
[1:07:02] Speaker 2: Shout out to you, Seth Ledger, Malcolm Lee, getting some
[1:07:04] Speaker 2: love here. I ain't going to lie.
[1:07:05] Speaker 3: You know who was an underrated passer? But he had vision.
[1:07:09] Speaker 5: Telfair.
[1:07:10] Speaker 2: Sebastian, yeah, yeah. He had real, like, real, real. I
[1:07:13] Speaker 2: ain't giving you the ball.
[1:07:15] Speaker 3: I ain't passing you the ball.
