Luka Doncic's First Lakers BLACK OUT Fires Up Gil's Arena as Gilbert Arenas & The Gil's Arena Crew make their return to the arena following the NBA All Star Break and recap everything that went on in the association after the stars took the court in San Francisco. They open up the show discussing the NBA's terrible All Star Game that resulted in all time low ratings and break down what the league can do to bring more juice to their mid season spectacle before reacting to Kevin Durant's comments surrounding NBA fan's comments on the league's all star issue. Next, they react to Luka Doncic's best game as a Los Angeles Laker as the Lake Show finally got revenge on Nikola Jokic & the Denver Nuggets and showed exactly what Luka brings to the team when he's able to follow LeBron James' advice and fit the f out. The Gil's Arena Crew then welcomes in a very special guest in Boogie Cousins who joins the Crew to react to Jimmy Butler's impressive run carrying the Warriors to a 5-1 record since his trade and break down Steph Curry trolling the Dallas Mavericks with his signature night night celebration following their big win on Sunday night. Finally, Gil & the Crew react to the sad news of Victor Wembanyama getting shut down for the rest of the San Antonio Spurs' season and discuss the report that Joel Embiid could be the next NBA big man to get shut down due to an ailing knee issue.

[0:35] Speaker 2: We'll do them quick again. This is Gil's Arena presented
[0:37] Speaker 2: by Underdogs. We got the legend Gilbert Arenas here with us.

[0:48] Speaker 1: I'm talking to you, baby. We got the... Yeah, under
[0:53] Speaker 1: six seconds. Now you know the rules. It's for you, too.
[0:55] Speaker 2: We got the bully from Oak Cliff, former number one pick,
[0:57] Speaker 2: Canyon Martin, back on the couch. And the one and
[1:02] Speaker 2: only Cemetery Larry, Rashad McCants back here with us. So
[1:09] Speaker 2: before the All-Star break, we did the first ever Gills
[1:12] Speaker 2: Arena All-Star Draft with Gil, Canyon, Rashad, and Brandon selecting
[1:15] Speaker 2: teams with the combined points, rebounds, and assists.
[1:17] Speaker 1: From each team determining the winner. So.
[1:20] Speaker 2: Now that the game has been played, Cemetery Larry, you
[1:23] Speaker 2: came in first place.
[1:24] Speaker 4: Me?
[1:24] Speaker 1: Oh, he won. With a combined score of 106. Me? Yes, you.
[1:27] Speaker 1: He won? The champion.
[1:29] Speaker 5: Damn, I remember you was talking crazy like you had it.
[1:31] Speaker 1: The champion's here. I did. I won? You did win. Again? Again. Again. Again?
[1:38] Speaker 4: Me?
[1:38] Speaker 1: That's crazy. No. No, not me. How much I win?
[1:43] Speaker 1: Are you getting $ 1, 000 from my underdog? $ 1, 000. A whole $ 1, 000.
[1:46] Speaker 6: Do you know what I'm going to do with my $ 1, 000?
[1:48] Speaker 1: Lose it.
[1:49] Speaker 4: Man.
[1:51] Speaker 1: See? See? Yeah. I'm going to give it right back
[1:55] Speaker 1: to him. I'm going to be generous anyway. Hey, he's
[1:56] Speaker 1: going to give it right back to him. You're going
[1:57] Speaker 1: to share it with the couch? I'm going to share
[1:59] Speaker 1: my bucks with the couch. That's a good man. You're
[2:02] Speaker 1: a man of the people. Shout out. I got $ 500.
[2:04] Speaker 6: I'm going to give it to Brandon, Nick. Gil, Josiah,
[2:07] Speaker 6: and Kenyon so they can try to win some money.
[2:09] Speaker 1: Okay.
[2:10] Speaker 6: So they can't win with me or against me. They
[2:12] Speaker 6: can try to win on their own.
[2:14] Speaker 1: Okay? Let's figure it out. Y'all can share. So tell
[2:16] Speaker 1: on the dog to give 100, 100, 100. It's Christmas
[2:20] Speaker 1: Day today. It is.
[2:21] Speaker 2: Christmas came a little early in the arena. Gil, you
[2:23] Speaker 2: came in second place.
[2:24] Speaker 1: Mm-hmm. You had a combined score of 92. Mr.
[2:27] Speaker 4: B came in third with 67.
[2:29] Speaker 1: Who messed up for you? No. I dare you. He had...
[2:33] Speaker 1: He had... No, so Bron didn't play. All five of
[2:37] Speaker 1: his players was in the championship game.
[2:41] Speaker 4: Mm.
[2:43] Speaker 1: So... Yeah, so what happens is Steph was popping, right? Um...
[2:49] Speaker 1: Who else?
[2:50] Speaker 4: You got Kyrie hit some shots for him.
[2:52] Speaker 1: He was MVP, right? Who? Kyrie. No, no, Steph.
[2:56] Speaker 4: Wimby started going in. So everybody was contributing. And then
[3:00] Speaker 4: motherfucker didn't play Sangoon. Had me pissed, man, so.
[3:05] Speaker 1: Why would you play him in that game? No, I
[3:07] Speaker 1: just rebound, like rebounds.
[3:08] Speaker 4: A little rebound here and there, a little outlet pass here.
[3:12] Speaker 1: You needed everything.
[3:13] Speaker 2: So as part of the agreement.
[3:16] Speaker 1: Well, none of my players do none of that shit. No, no, no, yeah, yeah, yeah.
[3:20] Speaker 1: The motherfuckers suck. Young punks. Young punks.
[3:26] Speaker 2: As a part of the agreement, the loser has to
[3:28] Speaker 2: wear the winner's jersey for an episode, which will be
[3:32] Speaker 2: at some point this week, so.
[3:34] Speaker 6: Nobody wants to wear a McCann's jersey, man.
[3:37] Speaker 1: You can't lose. You don't have to wear that type
[3:39] Speaker 1: of shit. It's vintage. A man of the people. We'll
[3:47] Speaker 1: be rocking it. Remember that day you wore that trans boy?
[3:51] Speaker 1: That shit was nasty on you.
[3:52] Speaker 6: That shit navy blue and green with trees on it.
[3:57] Speaker 2: We are back in the arena. It feels good to
[3:59] Speaker 2: be home. Shout out to San Francisco though.
[4:02] Speaker 1: Y'all held it down. No one on the crew got robbed,
[4:04] Speaker 1: I don't think. We good? All their possessions good? Shout
[4:08] Speaker 1: out to the city. Shout out to my time. For
[4:10] Speaker 1: taking care of us.
[4:10] Speaker 2: Shout out to the good folks at Hennessy Adidas, Nike
[4:13] Speaker 2: Foot Locker for blessing me with these shoes.
[4:16] Speaker 1: And Under Armour as well. Mr. B, Gentleman's Cut. I'm
[4:19] Speaker 1: trying to be like you now. I like that.
[4:22] Speaker 2: No longer merely a host, movie star as well. Things
[4:25] Speaker 2: are going to be a little different. I'm moving forward
[4:27] Speaker 2: around here. No, I'm just kidding. But for all the
[4:29] Speaker 2: fans out there, we still have two viewing options for you.
[4:31] Speaker 2: Our traditional version, a mobile vertical version. Pick whichever one
[4:33] Speaker 2: you want to watch. Just make sure you support the show.
[4:36] Speaker 2: Here's what's cracking in the arena today.
[4:39] Speaker 1: Lucas!
[4:41] Speaker 2: Best game as a Laker helped the Purple and Gold
[4:43] Speaker 2: snap the Nuggets' nine-game winning streak. How will the Lakers'
[4:46] Speaker 2: offense improve with Lucas serving as the primary playmaker? Shout
[4:50] Speaker 2: out to Lucas. Somebody bring my diaper. I didn't bring
[4:55] Speaker 2: the diaper and the baby. We was burping that Serbian kid.
[5:00] Speaker 1: Oh, man. Damn.
[5:02] Speaker 4: You had to put three people on him.
[5:05] Speaker 1: You had to put three people on him. He was
[5:07] Speaker 1: a big baby. You had to put three people on him. Hey, whatever.
[5:10] Speaker 1: Two for seven.
[5:13] Speaker 7: What, he let y'all out the crib now? Y'all not
[5:15] Speaker 7: on the nipple no more?
[5:16] Speaker 4: We grown now. Y'all not on the nipple no more?
[5:19] Speaker 4: We grown now. Oh, now y'all on formula. Y'all got
[5:23] Speaker 4: off the nipple, now you're on formula. You're different now.
[5:25] Speaker 4: You're on regular milk now.
[5:27] Speaker 1: You're on regular vitamin D milk. He just learned how
[5:30] Speaker 1: to walk.
[5:31] Speaker 2: Steph and the Warriors hit the Mavs with the night-night
[5:34] Speaker 2: in Jimmy Butler's home debut to improve to 5-1 in
[5:37] Speaker 2: their last six games.
[5:39] Speaker 1: Are the Dubs for real or Fugazi?
[5:41] Speaker 2: And Wimby will miss the rest of the season with
[5:43] Speaker 2: a blood clot, but should the Spurs go all in
[5:46] Speaker 2: to build a contender around the burgeoning superstar for next season? Yeah, disappointing.
[5:50] Speaker 2: We're not going to see no more Wimby this season,
[5:51] Speaker 2: but got a great preview of what's to come in
[5:54] Speaker 2: his sophomore year. But before we get to all that,

[7:48] Speaker 2: We're trying to get to a gillion subs.
[7:50] Speaker 1: Help us get there. So let's get into it.
[7:52] Speaker 2: We haven't been back in the arena since the All-Star Game,
[7:55] Speaker 2: so let's talk about it real quick. NBA rolled out
[7:57] Speaker 2: a new mini-tournament format featuring three teams of All-Stars and
[8:01] Speaker 2: the Rising Stars winners. Needless to say, fans and players
[8:04] Speaker 2: weren't feeling it. There was a little over 30 minutes
[8:07] Speaker 2: of actual game action in the three-hour TV window. The
[8:10] Speaker 2: game turned into a Kevin Hart stand-up special.
[8:12] Speaker 1: Mr.
[8:13] Speaker 2: Beast got some love as well. There's a lot of influence,
[8:14] Speaker 2: a lot of other stuff going on. Shout-out to Drewski
[8:16] Speaker 2: as well. Viewership was nasty, to say the least. Second
[8:20] Speaker 2: least watched game in the event's history, just beating out
[8:24] Speaker 2: the 2023 game, and viewership was down 13% from the
[8:27] Speaker 2: 2024 game. So after the game, KD took to Twitter
[8:29] Speaker 2: to clap back at fans For all the bitching that's
[8:32] Speaker 2: been going on lately, KD had to clap back on him.
[8:34] Speaker 2: He said, I think it's more fun to complain about
[8:36] Speaker 2: the NBA than to actually watch it.
[8:38] Speaker 1: Crazy.
[8:38] Speaker 2: Cancel All-Star weekend and let's just give everybody a break
[8:41] Speaker 2: since we're so miserable around this time. So naturally, people
[8:44] Speaker 2: had some thoughts on this tweet. And when one person
[8:46] Speaker 2: responded by telling KD just how terrible the All-Star game was,
[8:49] Speaker 2: Durant offered this follow-up. He said, quote, I get it.
[8:52] Speaker 2: My point is fans complain about everything. Like nothing is
[8:55] Speaker 2: good enough for the fans right now. Only thing they
[8:57] Speaker 2: enjoy is playoffs, trade deadline, free agency. And when players
[9:00] Speaker 2: beef with each other, LOL. So we were in San
[9:04] Speaker 2: Francisco All-Star weekend. Did some great shows out there. You
[9:07] Speaker 2: guys saw the game.
[9:09] Speaker 1: I already see your face.
[9:11] Speaker 2: KD spitting or tripping. You didn't watch it? I was
[9:14] Speaker 2: in the airport. I watched a little bit. Shout out
[9:15] Speaker 2: to the Oakland airport. I was not impressed.
[9:21] Speaker 1: It got me home.
[9:24] Speaker 7: The plane landed safely. Yeah, I didn't like the format.
[9:27] Speaker 7: I thought the format was going to be BS from
[9:29] Speaker 7: the beginning, so... Turned out to be that from what
[9:32] Speaker 7: I'm hearing. So I'm glad I didn't watch it. So
[9:34] Speaker 7: you saved yourself three hours, can't you?
[9:35] Speaker 1: Absolutely.
[9:36] Speaker 7: To watch 30 minutes of basketball. Saved myself.
[9:40] Speaker 1: Did you hear what you just said?
[9:42] Speaker 7: Saved myself three hours to watch 30 minutes of basketball.
[9:44] Speaker 1: 30 minutes of all-star game basketball.
[9:47] Speaker 5: I think it could be better if they, like, instead
[9:49] Speaker 5: of doing the Rise of Stars, they do what I
[9:52] Speaker 5: think Gil was saying. Get the players that almost made it.
[9:56] Speaker 1: The snubs.
[9:56] Speaker 5: The snubs. And some, you know, some... fan favorites and
[10:01] Speaker 5: play them against. I think that'll be better.
[10:04] Speaker 1: That's fucking disgusting. That's disgusting too.
[10:06] Speaker 2: Because if you're a snub, why would you want to,
[10:08] Speaker 2: if you already got.
[10:09] Speaker 1: Yeah, why would you.
[10:10] Speaker 7: Why would I come? You didn't make the all-star team.
[10:13] Speaker 7: But they're going to call you the snub team.
[10:16] Speaker 1: Shit, I don't know. The almost made it team. I
[10:21] Speaker 1: was almost good enough to be an all-star team. Make
[10:24] Speaker 1: it more... I might make it next year, team. Expand it.
[10:29] Speaker 1: You got to expand it to more people. That shit
[10:32] Speaker 1: was terrible, man. I think the concept could have been better, though.
[10:36] Speaker 7: Go back to motherfucking East versus West. Stop all that
[10:40] Speaker 7: other shit, man. Let them dudes wear their own uniforms
[10:43] Speaker 7: like they used to. When that shit was fun, man.
[10:46] Speaker 1: You represent your own team. Let's go back to that shit.
[10:51] Speaker 1: I got a question. Yeah. NBA is a product, right?
[10:56] Speaker 1: It is a product of some sort.
[10:58] Speaker 4: All right.
[10:58] Speaker 6: So the fans, they get an opportunity to do customer review?
[11:03] Speaker 1: Yeah. Right?
[11:05] Speaker 6: They get to place their review on the product that
[11:07] Speaker 6: they've been... And so KD don't like the reviews.
[11:10] Speaker 1: No. From the customers? It's different.
[11:15] Speaker 6: He said, the fans complain about everything, about the product.
[11:21] Speaker 1: That they are receiving. I'm gonna complain about what I
[11:25] Speaker 1: don't like. If I'm paying for it, I have the
[11:29] Speaker 1: right to fucking complain about it.
[11:31] Speaker 6: But this is what I'm saying, if he's not correcting
[11:32] Speaker 6: the reason I'm complaining, which is usually customer service, customer review,
[11:37] Speaker 6: all that shit, how do we make your experience better?
[11:40] Speaker 6: Play harder, nigga.
[11:42] Speaker 5: Play better. The customers. The customers are watching.
[11:48] Speaker 6: No, we want to see basketball that we're not seeing.
[11:51] Speaker 1: We used to see. No, that's not it, Nick. You
[11:54] Speaker 1: know what it is.
[11:54] Speaker 7: Did you see the clip from 2013 All-Star game?
[11:58] Speaker 1: Clip. The clip.
[11:59] Speaker 4: Clip.
[12:00] Speaker 1: But what?
[12:01] Speaker 4: I can go to this game and put a clip
[12:03] Speaker 4: in and make it look like it was going hard. No,
[12:04] Speaker 4: I'm saying, no, just one person made it interesting.
[12:09] Speaker 1: By playing hard.
[12:10] Speaker 7: He just picked the dude up, the other really good
[12:11] Speaker 7: basketball player.
[12:12] Speaker 1: Full court. He picked him up full court and just...
[12:14] Speaker 1: Locked his shot. Shit like that.
[12:16] Speaker 4: Just made it competitive. But other people will pick up
[12:19] Speaker 4: on it. But what I'm saying is, you're doing one play. Yeah,
[12:22] Speaker 4: but that's making it look like this was the whole game.
[12:24] Speaker 7: No, it was, but I'm just saying, if more people
[12:26] Speaker 7: took that... What I'm saying is, if.
[12:31] Speaker 1: Who is the best? If Braun, right? If he would
[12:33] Speaker 1: have played. He didn't play. Who was the next best
[12:36] Speaker 1: guy that played in the All-Star game? Giannis didn't play.
[12:40] Speaker 1: The best player in the... Who played?
[12:42] Speaker 4: No, the best player would be Jokic, right? So if
[12:46] Speaker 4: he would have... See, now we... If he would have.
[12:50] Speaker 7: Came out there, motherfucker, running fast, playing really hard, then
[12:53] Speaker 7: it makes... You're not going to... We know the environment, right? Oh,
[12:58] Speaker 7: this motherfucker playing hard, right?
[12:59] Speaker 1: He trying to get the MVP. We going to turn
[13:01] Speaker 1: it up. We just ain't going to just give it
[13:05] Speaker 1: to him.
[13:06] Speaker 7: So that's my thing. If Kobe picking Braun up full
[13:08] Speaker 7: court made everybody else like, this motherfucker really playing hard.
[13:12] Speaker 1: I'm not going to look bad out here. Not in
[13:14] Speaker 1: this environment.
[13:14] Speaker 7: Because it's really going to look bad if two, three,
[13:18] Speaker 7: four people doing it. Then you got everybody else up just, hey, ole, ole.
[13:23] Speaker 1: Just somebody can, one person can set the tone.
[13:25] Speaker 5: Is all I'm saying. How many clips of Michael Jordan
[13:29] Speaker 5: picking up full court? Like everybody go back to this.
[13:33] Speaker 1: My point I'm making is one person can change the
[13:37] Speaker 1: tone of it from the beginning of it. One person can.
[13:41] Speaker 1: No matter who it is, one person can change the
[13:45] Speaker 1: tone of it. But ain't it supposed to be fun?
[13:48] Speaker 1: When they say customer service, right? What? Is the arena
[13:55] Speaker 1: sold out?
[13:56] Speaker 4: Are they lacking tickets from people participating in the arena?
[14:00] Speaker 1: Like the circus.
[14:00] Speaker 4: The circus is the actual place of business. What we
[14:05] Speaker 4: see on TV is everything else. So is the tickets
[14:10] Speaker 4: down in the arena itself?
[14:13] Speaker 1: No.
[14:14] Speaker 2: But what's more important, the live viewership experience for the
[14:16] Speaker 2: millions and millions of people watching or just the 25,000?
[14:20] Speaker 4: The people, no, it's really the people that's there because
[14:23] Speaker 4: they get to see all of it. They don't have
[14:28] Speaker 4: commercials in that arena. So whatever's happening in there, we
[14:31] Speaker 4: don't see most of it.
[14:32] Speaker 1: Let's be honest.
[14:34] Speaker 7: People are buying or going to these events not for,
[14:39] Speaker 7: they're going to see the people.
[14:40] Speaker 1: Mm-hmm. Right? They're going to see the people. Entertainment. No, no, no, no.
[14:45] Speaker 1: The opportunity to see you, the person. They're not damn
[14:50] Speaker 1: the event.
[14:50] Speaker 7: They excited that I could possibly see Steph Curry. I
[14:55] Speaker 7: could possibly run into LeBron James. I could possibly get
[14:59] Speaker 7: a picture with Wimby. This is why they go. And
[15:02] Speaker 7: going to the arena is only, it's a minute group, right?
[15:07] Speaker 1: Yeah.
[15:08] Speaker 7: It's the masses that's going to the event is more
[15:11] Speaker 7: than the people that's actually attending it.
[15:13] Speaker 1: Mm-hmm.
[15:14] Speaker 7: Attending the actual game. Because everybody can't afford it. A
[15:18] Speaker 7: family of four can't afford to go to the All-Star Game.
[15:21] Speaker 1: Right? Okay.
[15:22] Speaker 7: You got to save up for a couple.
[15:24] Speaker 1: Years to say you worked. A family of one. A
[15:28] Speaker 1: dad can't take his son. His ticket was hidden. His
[15:31] Speaker 1: ticket is $ 9, 000.
[15:31] Speaker 7: I can get a hotel room. I can get a
[15:35] Speaker 7: hotel room with a couple beds in it and have
[15:37] Speaker 7: the opportunity to go to Saturday, the convention center, and
[15:43] Speaker 7: they got all the players.
[15:44] Speaker 1: There's a potential to do that.
[15:47] Speaker 7: So the product on Sunday that everybody is complaining about?
[15:51] Speaker 1: The people on TV. The people on TV. And it's
[15:54] Speaker 1: the masses, right? The masses are going to complain because...
[15:57] Speaker 1: The people outside the club. Outside the club, right? They're
[16:01] Speaker 1: watching the club, though.
[16:03] Speaker 4: My thing is, it's very expensive to get there, right?
[16:07] Speaker 4: You got to do a lot of shit to be
[16:09] Speaker 4: in that environment, spending 20, 30, whatever, how many thousands
[16:13] Speaker 4: of dollars you're spending. We haven't heard one boo yet. Right.
[16:17] Speaker 4: We already know American basketball. If they don't like the
[16:20] Speaker 4: product that they're watching, they will boo. We haven't heard
[16:23] Speaker 4: no boos from the people that's there. All I hear
[16:27] Speaker 4: is a bunch of people who've never played the game.
[16:29] Speaker 1: Yeah.
[16:30] Speaker 4: Hockey, football telling us what we need to do in
[16:36] Speaker 4: our all star game.
[16:37] Speaker 1: Yeah.
[16:40] Speaker 4: Not realizing their sports had the same fucking problem. You
[16:45] Speaker 4: bragging about how your sport has changed and how great
[16:49] Speaker 4: you are doing and how y'all care, but yet you
[16:53] Speaker 4: had the same fucking problem. So obviously during the same time,
[16:57] Speaker 4: you niggas didn't think it was serious enough to compete.
[17:01] Speaker 4: So why are y'all talking about our sport when no
[17:03] Speaker 4: one even mentioned y'all's sport? Not one basketball player talked
[17:07] Speaker 4: about hockey views.
[17:08] Speaker 1: We don't give a fuck. We don't give a fuck
[17:10] Speaker 1: about what y'all doing down there. Football, y'all have Pro Bowl.
[17:15] Speaker 4: We don't talk about y'all Pro Bowl problem that y'all had.
[17:18] Speaker 4: Now y'all playing flag football. We just watch the entertainment.
[17:22] Speaker 4: But you had a competing problem also. But now y'all
[17:25] Speaker 4: want to come on the NBA scene and then tell
[17:29] Speaker 4: us why our product is bad.
[17:32] Speaker 1: Come on, dog.
[17:34] Speaker 4: Was y'all voicing that about y'all own product? Because we wasn't.
[17:37] Speaker 4: We wasn't tearing down y'all product. Our product is being
[17:40] Speaker 4: torn down about people who ain't played. We've done seen
[17:43] Speaker 4: the NBA all-star change throughout the years.
[17:48] Speaker 1: And the group... that's important have not even been included
[17:54] Speaker 1: in it.
[17:56] Speaker 4: They have not sat down the all-star players and said, hey,
[18:01] Speaker 4: what do y'all need to go out there and play
[18:04] Speaker 4: hard for them to get feedback?
[18:06] Speaker 2: I mean, with this new format, there was talk that
[18:08] Speaker 2: Adam Silver consulted Steph Curry and some other players about it.
[18:10] Speaker 1: Steph Curry and who else? Steph Curry was the main name.
[18:13] Speaker 4: Okay, so there wasn't the main damn near 12 that
[18:17] Speaker 4: usually make it every year. Not the possible 20 players
[18:22] Speaker 4: all-stars that might make it, right, that we know that's
[18:26] Speaker 4: going to make it, the Shea, the Luka, them, and say,
[18:29] Speaker 4: what do you guys need for a better experience for
[18:35] Speaker 4: everybody else?
[18:36] Speaker 1: No, they did it with football. They did it with hockey.
[18:39] Speaker 1: They did it with MLB. Not with us.
[18:41] Speaker 2: And shout out to LeBron for having the foresight to
[18:44] Speaker 2: recognize the bullshit.
[18:45] Speaker 1: We just have motherfuckers in there like, what Jalen Brown say?
[18:47] Speaker 1: I don't know what's going on. Can I ask a question?
[18:50] Speaker 1: Where's the accountability? Where was it in football? Where was
[18:55] Speaker 1: it in NHL? Where's accountability? Y'all hear all sides.
[19:01] Speaker 7: The reason they're not booing you is because people are
[19:03] Speaker 7: not tied to it.
[19:08] Speaker 5: But why is NBA All-Star Weekend the only one always
[19:11] Speaker 5: talked about?
[19:12] Speaker 1: Because it's the biggest one. It's the biggest one.
[19:13] Speaker 6: I had a question. I had a question. I had
[19:16] Speaker 6: a question. I had a question. I did ask it,
[19:19] Speaker 6: but I knew you wouldn't go. I know y'all weren't
[19:21] Speaker 6: going to answer.
[19:22] Speaker 4: Right?
[19:23] Speaker 6: Because the NBA claims the number one spot in sports.
[19:28] Speaker 1: We do? Yes. No, football does. I think football does.
[19:31] Speaker 6: I said the NBA claims the number one spot.
[19:34] Speaker 1: NFL does. All right?
[19:36] Speaker 4: So.
[19:37] Speaker 1: As the NBA grows and grows and grows, and you
[19:41] Speaker 1: have the worst, second worst, statistically? Second lowest. Second lowest, right?
[19:50] Speaker 1: That's stats.
[19:50] Speaker 6: That's not, if stats tell the story, that means that
[19:54] Speaker 6: customers have a right to write their review and say,
[19:59] Speaker 6: I do not like what y'all are doing.
[20:02] Speaker 1: I don't like how they're playing. I don't like the product.
[20:06] Speaker 1: I need my refund. But they ain't asking for a refund.
[20:09] Speaker 6: They just hoping the players will just start playing fucking
[20:11] Speaker 6: hard because we playing y'all more motherfucking.
[20:14] Speaker 1: Money than you're asking for. But it's an all-star game.
[20:16] Speaker 1: I don't give a fuck what it is. The game
[20:18] Speaker 1: is game.
[20:19] Speaker 6: Hey, do you need money to go upstairs and play
[20:21] Speaker 6: me one-on-one? Do you need money to go play two-on-two?
[20:24] Speaker 6: You not getting paid for your little league.
[20:26] Speaker 1: You playing in? They not paying you? They not paying you?
[20:29] Speaker 1: You a hooper. That's whoop. Yo. What we talking about?
[20:33] Speaker 4: We don't need no incentive. This nigga don't want niggas
[20:34] Speaker 4: to complain. And we fans, we got to complain. When
[20:38] Speaker 4: you ain't playing for shit.
[20:39] Speaker 1: You're complaining about everything.
[20:40] Speaker 4: Nigga down there losing in Phoenix and don't want nobody
[20:42] Speaker 4: complaining about the losing.
[20:44] Speaker 1: It's not an all-star game. What the fuck? That's an
[20:47] Speaker 1: NBA problem overall. Period. It's a sports problem.
[20:49] Speaker 6: It's carrying over to all-star games, where it should never
[20:52] Speaker 6: carry over.
[20:53] Speaker 5: It's something to talk about problem, I think. If you
[20:55] Speaker 5: just let the all-star game be the all-star game. If
[20:57] Speaker 5: every sport has changed.
[20:58] Speaker 1: We not talking about all sports.
[21:00] Speaker 6: We talking about the NBA all-star game. Ain't no other
[21:03] Speaker 6: all-star game happening. An NHL dude come on the TV
[21:06] Speaker 6: and say what he said, and everybody get mad because
[21:08] Speaker 6: he played hockey.
[21:09] Speaker 1: So fucking what? Let me say it then. What are
[21:13] Speaker 1: we going to get mad at him for? Fuck him.
[21:15] Speaker 1: I said it. Fuck him. I said it. Now it
[21:18] Speaker 1: don't matter. Now it don't matter because I'm me. Let
[21:21] Speaker 1: Vince say it. Let T-Mac say it. Okay. Does it
[21:24] Speaker 1: matter then? It would.
[21:27] Speaker 4: So why does it matter who the messenger is? The
[21:30] Speaker 4: message is the message.
[21:31] Speaker 1: No, it ain't. The shit is a shit product. It's
[21:34] Speaker 1: a shit product right now.
[21:35] Speaker 6: We got to fix it.
[21:37] Speaker 1: That's the thing. Acknowledge it. All right, so tear down
[21:41] Speaker 1: the NBA. No, acknowledge it. Acknowledge there's a problem. What
[21:44] Speaker 1: would we talk about? Acknowledge that it's a problem.
[21:47] Speaker 5: I ain't heard one person say anything good about the NBA.
[21:50] Speaker 1: Acknowledge that it's a problem.
[21:52] Speaker 5: If Luka didn't get traded, the NBA wouldn't have nothing
[21:54] Speaker 5: to talk about but negative shit about the All-Star.
[21:58] Speaker 6: The viewership for the finals last year was down.
[22:00] Speaker 1: Listen. I don't, I don't, I don't, I'm not mad. Willie,
[22:03] Speaker 1: hold on.
[22:03] Speaker 4: First of all, cable TV is down anyway.
[22:06] Speaker 1: Don't revisit this conversation, man. It's a fact. It's not
[22:09] Speaker 1: a fact, bro. It's not a fact? So 110 million people.
[22:12] Speaker 1: You're moving to go first. No, no, no. Hold on.
[22:16] Speaker 1: Go back to the same point. 110 million viewers.
[22:19] Speaker 4: Were subscribed to cable a few years ago.
[22:22] Speaker 1: Now it's down to 70. That's not a difference?
[22:24] Speaker 4: That's 40 million people less watching just shit, period.
[22:29] Speaker 1: So numbers is just going to be down anyway, right?
[22:32] Speaker 1: Second lowest all-star game. Now, second lowest. Now, is that
[22:36] Speaker 1: a fact or was that just part of... Oh, my gosh.
[22:41] Speaker 1: Can you read the date that is right there and
[22:45] Speaker 1: write what I said? Right here? Yeah. So the league
[22:47] Speaker 1: start with that? Yeah. So the league... No, say the date.
[22:50] Speaker 1: So February 16th... What day is that, a Saturday? Saturday. 2024. Saturday. 2025,
[22:55] Speaker 1: excuse me. Saturday, right? Okay. Is that Saturday? Yep. So
[22:57] Speaker 1: that means the All-Star game ain't start yet, right? The
[23:00] Speaker 1: All-Star game is not. Here's what was said.
[23:03] Speaker 2: So the league already knew the numbers was going to
[23:04] Speaker 2: be low, so they're going to tell Bron sit out
[23:06] Speaker 2: and be like the views was low because Bron didn't
[23:08] Speaker 2: play at all.
[23:09] Speaker 4: I said that Saturday. You did say that Saturday, Gil.
[23:12] Speaker 4: I had a meeting with NBC. They said this is
[23:15] Speaker 4: going to be the worst All-Star views.
[23:18] Speaker 1: One, because.
[23:20] Speaker 4: People who watch cable TVs is old people. Saturday Night
[23:23] Speaker 4: Live's 50th anniversary was coming on.
[23:27] Speaker 1: That's where all the views were. So I'm in a.
[23:29] Speaker 4: Meeting Saturday morning, 8 o'clock, and got that message.
[23:34] Speaker 1: This is Saturday I said this. And what happened Sunday? Okay.
[23:40] Speaker 1: So obviously they already knew because there was something else
[23:43] Speaker 1: big that was happening. But fuck the views. We talking
[23:44] Speaker 1: about the product.
[23:45] Speaker 6: I'm talking about the nigga complaining about fans complaining about
[23:49] Speaker 6: what they seeing.
[23:50] Speaker 1: Fuck the viewership and how many people watching.
[23:52] Speaker 6: It's what we watching and what we complaining about.
[23:55] Speaker 1: Fix that.
[23:55] Speaker 4: What I'm saying is I don't want to hear a
[23:57] Speaker 4: hockey dude.
[23:58] Speaker 1: Yeah, I get that. You bashing. It's you hearing me.
[24:00] Speaker 1: Hear me. Fuck the hockey dude. Hear me.
[24:02] Speaker 4: I want to know can I find any rates of
[24:09] Speaker 4: Badgering that he did on hockey before they changed.
[24:12] Speaker 1: It just a few months ago.
[24:14] Speaker 4: See, they were successful this All-Star game because they changed
[24:18] Speaker 4: the format this All-Star game.
[24:20] Speaker 1: How about last year or the year before that?
[24:22] Speaker 4: The reason that the problem was change it.
[24:24] Speaker 1: We've been trying to change ours, right? We haven't been successful.
[24:30] Speaker 4: But nobody tore down the NFL when they was having
[24:32] Speaker 4: this problem.
[24:33] Speaker 1: They changed it.
[24:34] Speaker 4: Now they have flag football.
[24:36] Speaker 6: Now they have fucking flag. Nobody's tearing down the NBA, bro.
[24:40] Speaker 6: Nobody's tearing down nothing. Your players get paid the most money.
[24:44] Speaker 7: But my thing about what KD is, like the complaint is,
[24:48] Speaker 7: so I get it. My point is fans complain about everything.
[24:53] Speaker 7: Like nothing's good enough for the fans right now.
[24:55] Speaker 1: So this....
[25:00] Speaker 7: If I'm paying my money for something, right?
[25:04] Speaker 1: And it's not free.
[25:06] Speaker 7: If it's something free, I have no right to fucking
[25:08] Speaker 7: complain about it, right? If I'm paying my money for
[25:13] Speaker 7: any type of, whether it's to watch it on an app, live,
[25:19] Speaker 7: whatever it is, whatever service I'm paying my money for,
[25:25] Speaker 7: I'm allowed to have something to say as a fan
[25:28] Speaker 7: because I'm paying my money for it, right? And that's
[25:32] Speaker 7: where people get it, like, if you're paying your money,
[25:38] Speaker 7: then don't watch it so you don't have nothing to
[25:40] Speaker 7: complain about, but you're just spending your money, right? So
[25:43] Speaker 7: it all goes in this circle of thing, right, like, Yeah,
[25:48] Speaker 7: they can fucking complain, KD, because they're paying their money
[25:51] Speaker 7: for it. Y'all not going around fucking Phoenix, Arizona, giving
[25:55] Speaker 7: fucking tickets away, 23,000 people for free.
[25:58] Speaker 1: Y'all not doing that.
[25:59] Speaker 6: If y'all was doing that, people.
[26:01] Speaker 1: Sit down, shut the fuck up. Nah, they still complain, KD.
[26:03] Speaker 1: You know, people... Well, they will, but it'll be less
[26:06] Speaker 1: because they're fucking free, right? Because they're free, yeah. Now,
[26:09] Speaker 1: it'll fall on deaf ears then, right?
[26:11] Speaker 7: If you're giving somebody something, they complain, you're like, well,
[26:13] Speaker 7: I just think I'll give you another one.
[26:14] Speaker 1: Yeah, right, right. Then you just wash your hands with it.
[26:17] Speaker 1: But if I'm paying my money for the product, and
[26:21] Speaker 1: in today's society where this motherfucker is so many different
[26:24] Speaker 1: ways for me to complain and to reach him, they
[26:32] Speaker 1: have the right. This is weird. They have the right
[26:34] Speaker 1: to complain because they're paying for it. Okay, now... So
[26:37] Speaker 1: he cannot like it, absolutely. But... They paying they money
[26:42] Speaker 1: for it, bruh. Like, hard earned. I'm talking to speaking
[26:46] Speaker 1: to KD. Like, they paying they... People work nine to
[26:48] Speaker 1: five and fucking all hours of the day to go
[26:51] Speaker 1: watch this shit and they don't like what they see. So,
[26:53] Speaker 1: of course they're going to have something to say. I
[26:55] Speaker 1: don't like the way the motherfucker wash my car. I'm
[26:59] Speaker 1: going to have something to say because I paid for it, right?
[27:01] Speaker 1: It smudges on the window and shit like that. You're like, hey, bro,
[27:06] Speaker 1: let me show you this, right? Come on, man.
[27:09] Speaker 4: So that's what they're doing. They're bringing it to everybody's attention.
[27:13] Speaker 4: It just so happened that it's a billion-dollar industry that
[27:16] Speaker 4: we're talking about.
[27:17] Speaker 6: And you think that you can't fuck it up.
[27:19] Speaker 1: You think that your shit's perfect. It ain't perfect.
[27:21] Speaker 2: So before we continue, I want to tell everybody out there,
[27:23] Speaker 2: hit a refresh on the stream. We apologize for the
[27:25] Speaker 2: Internet issues. As you can see, we're talking about some
[27:27] Speaker 2: sensitive subjects that people out there don't want us to shine.
[27:30] Speaker 2: But go ahead, hit that refresh. You already know what
[27:32] Speaker 2: time it is. It's a black SUV circling the neighborhood
[27:34] Speaker 2: before the show today. I knew something was up. I
[27:36] Speaker 2: knew y'all was up to something. But, Gil, what were
[27:38] Speaker 2: you going to say?
[27:41] Speaker 1: So there's only one solution. What's that? Don't have the game. No,
[27:44] Speaker 1: you can't have it. Nah. That ain't the answer. That
[27:48] Speaker 1: is the answer. That's called take your ball and go home. Yeah,
[27:51] Speaker 1: that's not the answer. That is the answer. That's weak.
[27:53] Speaker 1: Because the answer of me going home. Don't be weak. Oh, no.
[27:56] Speaker 1: Don't be weak. Hold on, hold on. Don't be weak.
[27:58] Speaker 1: Don't be weak. You don't want fans. You don't want fans.
[28:01] Speaker 1: Can we talk real sports? You don't want fans. Let's
[28:03] Speaker 1: talk real. But you're cheating the fans. If you know.
[28:11] Speaker 4: That the 24 of us got something fucking bigger to
[28:14] Speaker 4: play for.
[28:15] Speaker 1: Yes.
[28:16] Speaker 4: Right?
[28:16] Speaker 1: Ours is not after the season. We got something bigger
[28:19] Speaker 1: to play for. Your team is number one.
[28:21] Speaker 4: We know damn well you're not going 90%.
[28:23] Speaker 1: True. Right? True.
[28:26] Speaker 4: So the only option is I'm not going to go 90, 80,
[28:29] Speaker 4: or 70 unless I got enough points to win it.
[28:32] Speaker 4: Other than that, I am not giving you more than 75%.
[28:35] Speaker 1: Okay. You don't like that, right? I'm with you. Then
[28:39] Speaker 1: let's not have the game so you can't complain. Let's
[28:42] Speaker 1: figure out something else to do.
[28:43] Speaker 4: Let's just have a one-on-one game for the people who
[28:46] Speaker 4: want to go far. But I am not going to
[28:48] Speaker 4: jeopardize my season for a fun activity.
[28:52] Speaker 6: Then don't get mad when you don't get picked for
[28:54] Speaker 6: All-Star then.
[28:55] Speaker 1: Fuck, nigga. Don't get mad when you don't pick them
[28:58] Speaker 1: because you don't want to play. You don't want to
[29:00] Speaker 1: jeopardize your shit. That's weak as hell. That's weak as hell.
[29:03] Speaker 1: You don't deserve to be an all-star. You don't deserve
[29:06] Speaker 1: to be an all-star. Kobe Bryant never did it. He
[29:09] Speaker 1: never cheated that shit. He played hard. He did? He won.
[29:13] Speaker 1: He played hard and he won the game. He wanted
[29:16] Speaker 1: to win the game. So who are the fans? So
[29:19] Speaker 1: whoever wins.
[29:20] Speaker 4: The MVP is playing harder. He's just playing harder than
[29:23] Speaker 4: everybody else. What are you talking about all that? We're
[29:26] Speaker 4: talking about playing hard.
[29:27] Speaker 1: Playing hard. It's easy to play hard. Okay.
[29:30] Speaker 6: We don't need your incentive to win the MVP.
[29:32] Speaker 4: They can play hard because you're an all-star.
[29:34] Speaker 1: How hard did Jokic play? In any all-star he's ever
[29:37] Speaker 1: played against? 5%.
[29:39] Speaker 4: So anybody who plays 15% is playing.
[29:42] Speaker 1: Harder than him. Damn. So let's keep this thing moving.
[29:47] Speaker 1: What's going on? Keep it moving.
[29:48] Speaker 2: We like to give a shout-out to MeUndies for sponsoring

[33:49] Speaker 1: the top of the box. I told y'all to put
[33:51] Speaker 1: it at the bottom. The hell? This is not supposed
[33:54] Speaker 1: to be the first one. Let's keep this thing moving.
[33:57] Speaker 2: It is still Black History Month, but we got to
[33:59] Speaker 2: give some love to our favorite Caucasian. So, Luka's first
[34:02] Speaker 2: three games with the Lakers left much to be desired
[34:05] Speaker 2: with the squad going one and two in that stretch
[34:07] Speaker 2: with the win over the Jazz at home followed by
[34:09] Speaker 2: losses to the Jazz in Utah in the final game
[34:11] Speaker 2: before All-Star break and a home loss against the Hornets
[34:13] Speaker 2: in their first game back after the All-Star break. So,
[34:15] Speaker 2: Luka sat The next game against the Blazers, we got
[34:18] Speaker 2: to witness LeBron drop a 40-piece on the second night
[34:20] Speaker 2: of a back-to-back that had J.J. Redick glazing King James' greatness.
[34:24] Speaker 2: You guys have all seen the clip. And Saturday night,
[34:27] Speaker 2: Luka got his magic back as the Lakers pulled up
[34:29] Speaker 2: to Denver, losers of 13 of their last 14 games
[34:32] Speaker 2: against the Nuggets, with Joker and them in the midst
[34:34] Speaker 2: of a nine-game winning streak. That streak is no longer.
[34:38] Speaker 2: But before the game, J.J. Redick had a simple request
[34:40] Speaker 2: for Luka.
[34:41] Speaker 1: At least one.
[34:45] Speaker 8: Blackout episode where he's screaming indiscriminately at no one in
[34:49] Speaker 8: particular because he's excited. Like, that means he's back. That's
[34:55] Speaker 8: the Luka I know.
[34:56] Speaker 1: The killer. That's the Luka we all know, JJ. God
[35:01] Speaker 1: bless Luka.
[35:03] Speaker 4: Luka obliged his new head coach delivering his best performance
[35:06] Speaker 4: as a Laker and finally heeding LeBron's advice to not
[35:09] Speaker 4: fit in but fit the F out.
[35:11] Speaker 2: Let's take a look at some of the highlights if
[35:13] Speaker 2: we can. Shout out to all the Nuggets fans. Make
[35:14] Speaker 2: sure you tune in very closely to these highlights. It's
[35:16] Speaker 2: a new day here in L.A. So, Luka was averaging
[35:20] Speaker 2: less than 15 points per game as a Laker heading
[35:22] Speaker 2: into the matchup, but got to cooking early, dropping 16
[35:25] Speaker 2: points in the first quarter. Finished the game with 32 points.
[35:28] Speaker 4: 10 rebounds, 7 assists, and 4 steals. Going 10 for
[35:31] Speaker 4: 22 from the field, 4 for 9 from 3, and
[35:34] Speaker 4: 8 for 8 from the line. Luka was a plus
[35:36] Speaker 4: 20 for the game. His highest since coming to L.A.
[35:39] Speaker 4: LeBron followed up his 40-piece with 25 points, nine rebounds,
[35:42] Speaker 4: five dimes, and three blocks.
[35:43] Speaker 2: Ooh, you see it right there. The best third option
[35:46] Speaker 2: in the league, Austin Reeves, also known as Lemon Daddy,
[35:48] Speaker 2: added 23 points and seven dimes, going four for seven
[35:51] Speaker 2: from deep. And Rui Hachimura had 21 points and four rebounds.
[35:54] Speaker 2: So Rui left the game early in the fourth quarter
[35:57] Speaker 2: with an apparent injury, but returned later in the quarter,
[35:59] Speaker 2: said he would be all right. So as impressive as
[36:01] Speaker 2: the Lakers were on offense, their defense was just as dominant.
[36:04] Speaker 2: While Joker did have his 26th triple-double this season, the
[36:07] Speaker 2: Lakers had him in the torture chamber.
[36:09] Speaker 1: Joker finished with.
[36:10] Speaker 2: 12 points, 13 rebounds, 10 assists, two for seven from
[36:13] Speaker 2: the field. Aaron Gordon led the Nuggets with 24 points.
[36:17] Speaker 2: Jamal Murray had 19. Russell Westbrook came off the bench
[36:19] Speaker 2: and had 17. So we saw that third quarter. Nuggets
[36:21] Speaker 2: cut the lead to just two points. But the Lukas
[36:24] Speaker 2: would not be denied outscoring the Nuggets 60-38 from that
[36:27] Speaker 2: point on. Lakers had 39 points off. Turnovers never trailed.
[36:31] Speaker 1: In the game. Not that we expected them to. God
[36:35] Speaker 1: bless Luka Doncic. Luka!
[36:40] Speaker 2: The Purple and Gold got their first win in Denver
[36:42] Speaker 2: since April of 2022, snapping an eight-game losing streak at
[36:45] Speaker 2: Ball Arena in our league best 14-4 in their last
[36:48] Speaker 2: 18 games with the top defensive rating, third best net
[36:51] Speaker 2: rating in the league in that span. So after the win,
[36:54] Speaker 2: Luka had this to say about his first blackout game
[36:56] Speaker 2: with the Lakers.
[36:58] Speaker 1: And the team goal finishes.
[37:00] Speaker 9: I think you can see it, you know, me smiling
[37:02] Speaker 9: on the court, having fun. You know, JJ told me,
[37:05] Speaker 9: you know, you ain't got to have one of that
[37:06] Speaker 9: blackout moment you have.
[37:08] Speaker 1: So I think I had one.
[37:09] Speaker 9: You know, it just felt like me a little bit.
[37:12] Speaker 1: So I was happy.
[37:14] Speaker 10: How encouraging is it for you to find your game
[37:18] Speaker 10: like this, this quickly, and then to see the team
[37:20] Speaker 10: come along, have the defensive effort as well, and just
[37:23] Speaker 10: have that all come together?
[37:24] Speaker 1: What kind of confidence does it give you about your
[37:26] Speaker 1: new team? Great confidence.
[37:29] Speaker 9: I remember when was the last time I won here.
[37:31] Speaker 9: It's very tough to play here against that team. So
[37:35] Speaker 9: just to win like that, it's an amazing win for
[37:37] Speaker 9: us and gives me a lot of confidence moving forward.
[37:42] Speaker 9: Our goal is not a thing, I know. Our goal
[37:44] Speaker 9: is to win championship, you know, and that's our only goal.
[37:47] Speaker 9: And I think we have the team for that. You know, obviously,
[37:51] Speaker 9: the chemistry with me and the guys, you know, is
[37:53] Speaker 9: going to take a little time still. But, you know,
[37:55] Speaker 9: like you saw today, I think it's getting better and better.
[38:00] Speaker 1: Oh, Luka, press conference, please.
[38:01] Speaker 4: I just want to, we just want to see him.
[38:03] Speaker 4: Look at him smiling, glowing right there.
[38:06] Speaker 1: Look at that. Look at his neck. Look at that.
[38:08] Speaker 1: Look at that. He's on a cowboy working out all-star break.
[38:12] Speaker 5: It's a sign of a working man. He done probably
[38:14] Speaker 5: lost 20 pounds in a week.
[38:16] Speaker 1: Luka! Damn. Making me proud. Oh, man.
[38:22] Speaker 2: Everybody in the chat, just take a moment to appreciate
[38:25] Speaker 2: Luka's greatness for us.
[38:25] Speaker 1: What happened last night? Okay. Motherfucker averaging 15 with y'all.
[38:30] Speaker 2: That was before this breakout game, this breakout game.
[38:33] Speaker 1: He didn't change the needle. He moved the needle. He
[38:37] Speaker 1: moved the needle a little bit.
[38:38] Speaker 2: Gil, you were watching the game on playback during a
[38:41] Speaker 2: watch party. What does Luka bring to this Lakers squad
[38:44] Speaker 2: they previously lacked? That's a great answer to get.
[38:53] Speaker 1: He brings the equalizer to Jokic.
[39:01] Speaker 4: Jokic against the Lakers is putting up about 50.
[39:05] Speaker 1: To 60 total points rebounds. Total rebounds.
[39:08] Speaker 4: Points, rebounds, and assists. And, you know, with assists, that's
[39:11] Speaker 4: automatic two points. Add threes, right? So you're talking about
[39:15] Speaker 4: anywhere from 50 to 70 totals that Jokic himself was
[39:20] Speaker 4: bringing in. Anthony Davis couldn't match that because Anthony Davis
[39:23] Speaker 4: was just a rebound and a score, didn't have assists. Well,
[39:26] Speaker 4: with Luka, Luka gets to cancel that out.
[39:31] Speaker 1: Right?
[39:31] Speaker 4: So, Luka gets the average. You know, Luka's 28-9. He
[39:35] Speaker 4: cancels Jokic's output when you talk about.
[39:43] Speaker 1: Numbers-wise, metrics-wise. So.
[39:46] Speaker 4: That's what we gained from Luka that people don't realize
[39:49] Speaker 4: when you're talking about just straight mathematics.
[39:52] Speaker 1: Luka matches Jokic.
[39:54] Speaker 4: So if Luka could cancel out Jokic and don't have
[39:57] Speaker 4: that 20-point spread on him, that means you got LeBron versus.
[40:05] Speaker 1: Murray.
[40:07] Speaker 4: He wins that matchup. Then you have Austin against MPJ.
[40:13] Speaker 4: He wins that one.
[40:14] Speaker 1: Win, win, win. Just the other day? Output.
[40:16] Speaker 4: No, just output. Win just the other day, the game
[40:19] Speaker 4: the other day. No, no, just output, period. The output
[40:21] Speaker 4: that they put out. Man, y'all can't beat them. You
[40:24] Speaker 4: crazy as hell.
[40:25] Speaker 1: We just beat them. It's going to be easy. You
[40:28] Speaker 1: crazy as hell. Y'all can't beat them. Y'all don't really.
[40:30] Speaker 1: Y'all don't. Y'all can't beat them. It's going to be tough.
[40:32] Speaker 1: Y'all don't really. Y'all can't beat them. You're crazy. You
[40:35] Speaker 1: can't beat them in the series. We can. No, you cannot.
[40:38] Speaker 1: Who was our only problem? You cannot. Luka, right? I mean,
[40:40] Speaker 1: not me, not Luka, but who? Jokic, right? Y'all can't
[40:44] Speaker 1: beat them. Jokic, what did Jokic average? 28? Y'all can't
[40:47] Speaker 1: beat them. 28 and 14. How you think we can't
[40:49] Speaker 1: beat them? He averaged 28 and 14.
[40:51] Speaker 4: Anthony Davis averaged.
[40:54] Speaker 1: 28.7 and 12. So technically, in theory, they canceled each
[40:57] Speaker 1: other out. Y'all can beat them with Jamal Murray when
[40:59] Speaker 1: I'm playing well.
[41:00] Speaker 4: The 10 assists, the 10 assists, how.
[41:03] Speaker 1: Many points is that?
[41:04] Speaker 7: But Jamal Murray wasn't playing well when they beat y'all
[41:05] Speaker 7: in the playoffs.
[41:06] Speaker 1: What I'm saying is, how many points is 10 assists?
[41:07] Speaker 4: 20 on the lowest end to 30, right?
[41:12] Speaker 1: That's all Yoke is.
[41:13] Speaker 4: So he has 28 points plus his 20 to 30 assists.
[41:16] Speaker 1: So from, yeah, so that's what we was, that's what
[41:19] Speaker 1: fucked us up. So you're trying to justify it. On paper,
[41:24] Speaker 1: I hear you. No. Okay, you want to keep throwing
[41:27] Speaker 1: the stats and all that shit out there? I hear
[41:29] Speaker 1: you absolutely.
[41:30] Speaker 6: When you go in between that 94-50, y'all can't fuck
[41:34] Speaker 6: with him.
[41:34] Speaker 1: Get him. I don't want to fuck with y'all. We
[41:36] Speaker 1: don't need to fuck with y'all. All that shit y'all
[41:39] Speaker 1: talking about. They got better. They better than y'all. They
[41:42] Speaker 1: better than y'all. We're not going to stop him. Denver
[41:44] Speaker 1: better than y'all. Y'all got to triple team him in
[41:47] Speaker 1: order to have a chance. But we're not going to
[41:48] Speaker 1: stop him. Triple team in order to have a chance.
[41:50] Speaker 1: Did we stop him before? We took seven shots. Y'all bragging.
[41:54] Speaker 1: Locked up. He had seven turnovers. Y'all happy about this shit.
[41:57] Speaker 1: LeBron got seven dunks. Y'all can't beat them. We're not
[42:00] Speaker 1: stopping him, right? He averaged a triple-double. Y'all ain't doing nothing.
[42:06] Speaker 1: We don't need to. We just need somebody to do
[42:08] Speaker 1: the same thing. Luka can't do the same thing? What
[42:11] Speaker 1: are you talking about? Cool, y'all. Are they going to
[42:13] Speaker 1: stop Luka from doing it? Hypothetically, on paper, yes. I
[42:16] Speaker 1: hear you. We used to hope the triple team, Joker. No,
[42:20] Speaker 1: that's the only chance y'all have. No, we don't. Nick,
[42:23] Speaker 1: stop it. The man took seven shots. We're not talking about— Nick, stop.
[42:27] Speaker 2: It, Nick.
[42:28] Speaker 1: In a playoff series, you think he's going to take
[42:30] Speaker 1: only seven fucking shots? It ain't about the shots. We
[42:34] Speaker 1: hope he shoot more. It ain't about the shots. Huh?
[42:37] Speaker 1: It ain't about the shots. So can he score 28
[42:41] Speaker 1: points on 70 shots? How many did they lose by?
[42:42] Speaker 1: 23 points. So give him 20 more points. That's 32.
[42:47] Speaker 1: 10 and 13. They still lose. It don't matter about
[42:51] Speaker 1: his points. You're going on one game. They've been whooping
[42:55] Speaker 1: y'all ass, dog. It don't matter. It ain't the same team.
[43:00] Speaker 1: They've been whooping y'all ass. No matter who the fuck
[43:04] Speaker 1: y'all had on the court. Y'all got Oz to be
[43:07] Speaker 1: the greatest player of all time. He ain't been good enough.
[43:13] Speaker 1: He just turned 40, motherfucker. All right, so 39. 37, 36.
[43:18] Speaker 1: I don't want to hear it. Y'all couldn't beat him.
[43:22] Speaker 1: I don't want to hear it. I don't give a fuck.
[43:24] Speaker 5: Y'all won one game.
[43:27] Speaker 1: Congratulations. Congratulations. Y'all got one fucking win against him. I
[43:32] Speaker 1: don't want to hear it. Congratulations. I don't want to
[43:36] Speaker 1: hear it. Y'all not beaten to be the playoff team.
[43:38] Speaker 1: You crazy as hell. Say that shit. I don't want
[43:41] Speaker 1: to hear it. When I come up with it. Y'all
[43:43] Speaker 1: have to. Congratulations. With the triple team. Congratulations. Triple team, Nick.
[43:48] Speaker 1: You know, with seven turnovers. You can give us 20 points.
[43:52] Speaker 1: It don't matter. He has seven turnovers. Congratulations. You know why? Defense.
[43:56] Speaker 1: You know why? Congratulations. He's been triple teamed. As he should.
[44:00] Speaker 1: You've never been triple teamed before.
[44:01] Speaker 5: Are you complaining about somebody triple teamed?
[44:03] Speaker 1: I can pass out the double team.
[44:05] Speaker 11: Easily.
[44:06] Speaker 1: You got to now throw three people at me. You
[44:08] Speaker 1: got one goddamn win. What did he do against New York?
[44:10] Speaker 1: Three people. What did he do against New York? The
[44:12] Speaker 1: same thing. Do you think he's going to adjust? We're
[44:15] Speaker 1: not worried about him. Do you think he's going to
[44:17] Speaker 1: adjust to a stupid-ass triple team? A desperate-ass triple team?
[44:21] Speaker 5: If he couldn't handle them in New York, we copy.
[44:25] Speaker 1: And they still beat y'all, man. You know how to
[44:27] Speaker 1: beat a triple team, right? As soon as I get it,
[44:30] Speaker 1: I see three, I throw it. Y'all ain't got better.

[45:34] Speaker 1: Who's in fifth? Whoever it is, that's who the fuck
[45:37] Speaker 1: y'all need to be worried about. Y'all don't need to

[45:43] Speaker 1: And winning one time. One game, they been kicking y'all ass. Chat, Ben.
[45:48] Speaker 1: Denver plays the Lakers in the playoffs. Of course they
[45:51] Speaker 1: was going to have a slip. They didn't win nine straight.
[45:53] Speaker 1: Do not retire. They didn't win nine straight fucking games.
[45:56] Speaker 1: Y'all going to get them. Oh, shit. The Lakers beat
[45:59] Speaker 1: the Nuggets. They ain't going to win no more. They
[46:01] Speaker 1: didn't win ten straight. They didn't win 10 straight. Oh,
[46:05] Speaker 1: that's the chat.
[46:07] Speaker 6: They be worried about a motherfucking win in February.
[46:11] Speaker 1: It's motherfucking February. They didn't win 10 straight. What my

[46:46] Speaker 1: We going off that, man. Hypothetical.
[46:48] Speaker 6: So chat, listen to Gil's statement.
[46:51] Speaker 1: Yeah, go ahead. But hypothetically, now go.
[46:55] Speaker 4: If the Denver Nuggets play the Lakers in the playoffs,
[46:58] Speaker 4: do not put your money on Denver.
[47:00] Speaker 1: I wouldn't.
[47:01] Speaker 4: Y'all better worry about the team that's in fourth and
[47:03] Speaker 4: fifth right now. Fuck the Denver Nuggets. One game, fair word.
[47:06] Speaker 4: Don't goddamn matter, chat.
[47:08] Speaker 1: Chat. All right. Pay attention.
[47:11] Speaker 4: How about this?
[47:14] Speaker 1: Chad, let's do it now. Chad, if y'all want to
[47:17] Speaker 1: put a blanket, bet on it now. I don't make blankets.
[47:21] Speaker 1: What's the bet? Whoever the team is y'all playing the
[47:24] Speaker 1: first round, fourth or fifth, motherfucker, I bet on them.
[47:27] Speaker 4: I bet.
[47:27] Speaker 1: I bet. I bet. I bet right now. I'll put all...
[47:35] Speaker 1: 10,000 right now. Right now.
[47:37] Speaker 4: And then if we play Denver, if we play Denver,
[47:40] Speaker 4: I'll double it. The.
[47:46] Speaker 1: And I tripled it.
[47:47] Speaker 4: We all worried about getting in and worried about the team. Oh,
[47:50] Speaker 4: now you want to put 10th up because they won.
[47:52] Speaker 1: A game in February. I just know how to calculate.
[47:57] Speaker 1: I just know how to calculate. Just like Vegas calculated.
[47:59] Speaker 1: When Luka got there, they shot up. Shot up. Okay, cool.
[48:03] Speaker 1: Y'all beat the Denver Nuggets in February. Congratulations. Have the
[48:06] Speaker 1: Lakers ever lost to the Nuggets in the Luka era?
[48:08] Speaker 4: If we would have lost to them in February, they
[48:09] Speaker 4: would have been talking trash.
[48:10] Speaker 1: Who would have? We would have been saying, it's another
[48:13] Speaker 1: ass whooping. It's just another ass whooping.
[48:16] Speaker 4: And y'all can't say that. Y'all making a big deal

[49:30] Speaker 6: still February. Luka had the ball.
[49:32] Speaker 1: It's still February. Luka had the ball on the ISO.
[49:34] Speaker 1: It's in February. Luka had the ball. In February.
[49:36] Speaker 4: Yes.
[49:36] Speaker 1: Luka had the ball on the ISO. In February, right?
[49:38] Speaker 1: In February. Right? In February. He had an ISO. The
[49:40] Speaker 1: game that don't fucking matter. In February. He had an ISO.
[49:42] Speaker 1: In February. Yes. He had an ISO. In February. I
[49:45] Speaker 1: thought they were going to set a screen. They were
[49:47] Speaker 1: going to set a screen. In February. I thought you
[49:49] Speaker 1: were going to play hard all the time.
[49:50] Speaker 4: No, no.
[49:50] Speaker 1: He had.
[49:52] Speaker 4: Uh-oh, ladies and gentlemen. He had Michael Porter Jr. We
[49:57] Speaker 4: had Michael Porter Jr.
[49:59] Speaker 1: On him. A pick and roll was coming up. A
[50:02] Speaker 1: pick and roll was coming. He waved that shit. It's
[50:05] Speaker 1: time to come on in.
[50:06] Speaker 4: He waved it and said, fuck that ISO, and took
[50:09] Speaker 4: his ass to the basket.
[50:10] Speaker 1: Sweet February. Ladies and gentlemen, we got a special guest.
[50:13] Speaker 4: We got a special guest making his first appearance.
[50:15] Speaker 1: In the arena.
[50:19] Speaker 4: Fifth overall pick out of Kentucky in the 2010 NBA Draft.
[50:22] Speaker 1: Went on to play 11 seasons in the league.
[50:24] Speaker 11: Four-time All-Star, two-time All-NBA selection. He won a gold medal
[50:31] Speaker 11: with Team USA in the 2016 Olympics. Most recently won
[50:35] Speaker 11: a chip in finals, MVP in the T1 leg, and
[50:37] Speaker 11: tie wall for your cousins.
[50:39] Speaker 1: Welcome to Gil's Arena World! What's happening, fellas? What's happening? Well,
[50:45] Speaker 1: you joined us just in time.
[50:46] Speaker 2: We're just having a spirited conversation about the Luka Doncic
[50:49] Speaker 2: era Lakers.
[50:50] Speaker 1: Okay.
[50:50] Speaker 2: Luka, the new face of the Lakers, perhaps the NBA,
[50:53] Speaker 2: in some people's estimation.
[50:54] Speaker 4: I don't know if you saw the game this weekend,
[50:56] Speaker 4: but they smacked the Nuggets.
[50:57] Speaker 1: Yeah. Brought balance back to the force. Pride back to
[51:00] Speaker 1: the city of Los Angeles. Yeah.
[51:02] Speaker 2: So what do you think about that game? What do
[51:04] Speaker 2: you think about this, Luke, if he can keep playing
[51:06] Speaker 2: at that level?
[51:06] Speaker 1: What are the Lakers' prospects?
[51:08] Speaker 3: I think it's moving in the right direction for the Lakers.
[51:11] Speaker 3: I ain't really getting into the game too much. Like,
[51:15] Speaker 3: it's a new-look team. You know, teams adjust. Teams got
[51:18] Speaker 3: to figure out who they are now, their new identity,
[51:21] Speaker 3: shit like that. So it's not necessarily where I feel like.
[51:25] Speaker 3: this is a statement game or it means anything. It's just,
[51:27] Speaker 3: you know, the Lakers figuring shit out. They look good
[51:30] Speaker 3: for the first time as a team. Everybody looked good.
[51:34] Speaker 3: I mean, I think this was a perfect night for them,
[51:36] Speaker 3: but I don't think that necessarily says like, you know,
[51:39] Speaker 3: this is it.
[51:40] Speaker 1: But you might have to move you to this side. February, right? February, right? Yeah,
[51:44] Speaker 1: it's early, man. Hey, he didn't hear nothing we was
[51:46] Speaker 1: talking about. He didn't hear nothing! This is a little personal, though.
[51:49] Speaker 1: You know, Lakers. Nah, nah, nah. What? Don't do that.
[51:53] Speaker 1: Don't do that. I ain't taking shit personal. Don't do that.
[51:57] Speaker 1: Don't do that. Nah, I mean, it is what it is.
[51:59] Speaker 1: I mean, I don't have no skin in the game.
[52:01] Speaker 1: You know what I mean? So I'm just, I'm on
[52:03] Speaker 1: the outside looking in, and I know the game, so.
[52:07] Speaker 3: I don't think nobody should overreact over a win. It's
[52:09] Speaker 3: regular season. It's just regular reaction for us here and there.
[52:12] Speaker 1: Just regular. For y'all. Just regular. Very tame. Mild.
[52:16] Speaker 3: I mean, for them L.A. boys, though, I know they're excited.
[52:18] Speaker 3: I get it. You know what I'm saying? I ain't
[52:20] Speaker 3: mad at y'all. Y'all fans at heart. So, you know,
[52:22] Speaker 3: it is what it is.
[52:23] Speaker 1: We know it. Yeah, yeah, yeah. They know it, too. Yeah, they.
[52:28] Speaker 2: We want to keep all the negative Laker energy on
[52:30] Speaker 2: this side of the country.
[52:32] Speaker 1: It's okay. If we would have lost by 23, then
[52:35] Speaker 1: we could have never been here claiming. It was another game.
[52:37] Speaker 1: No side. It's okay. We wasn't going to lose. That's
[52:40] Speaker 1: what I'm saying. Memes and nightmares. We got numbers. I
[52:45] Speaker 1: didn't get invited to the review, but it's okay. We'll
[52:47] Speaker 1: promote it anyway. They're not paying attention to the numbers, dog.
[52:50] Speaker 4: They're not paying attention to it. Like, Anthony Davis brung
[52:54] Speaker 4: in 28 points.
[52:55] Speaker 1: Points. That's all he brung in. 28 points. Excuse me?
[52:58] Speaker 1: The motherfucker want y'all to chill. No, no, no. What
[53:02] Speaker 1: about the rebounds?
[53:03] Speaker 4: I'm talking about rebounds don't count as points. I'm talking
[53:05] Speaker 4: about points. Tell me which is more dangerous. This motherfucker
[53:09] Speaker 4: only care about scoring. He only care about scoring, man.
[53:11] Speaker 1: That's it. What is more dangerous? Offensive rebound putbacks is
[53:14] Speaker 1: the point. What is a more dangerous stat line? Nikola Jokic. 32? Mm-hmm.
[53:21] Speaker 1: 7 and 12, right?
[53:30] Speaker 4: And Anthony Davis had 32, 14, and 5.
[53:33] Speaker 1: Who won that matchup? I don't know. You fucking kidding me? No,
[53:39] Speaker 1: the first one, right? No, I'm rolling with A. He
[53:42] Speaker 1: has 32, 5, and 14. 5 what? Who? 5 assists.
[53:44] Speaker 1: Anthony Davis or 14 rebounds? 32, 7, and 12. So
[53:46] Speaker 1: he contributed... assist as well. Boogie. Five. Whenever he touched
[53:57] Speaker 1: that phone, bro. But he contributed.
[53:58] Speaker 4: But he contributed. We comparing a big to a one.
[54:02] Speaker 4: Gil want to act like the motherfucker.
[54:04] Speaker 1: Boy, listen. Hold on, y'all. It don't go together.
[54:08] Speaker 7: Gil want to act like the motherfucker just went out
[54:09] Speaker 7: and scored all points and then passed the ball.
[54:12] Speaker 4: Right?
[54:12] Speaker 1: That's the way he want to have the conversation. Right?
[54:14] Speaker 1: He want to... Tell me what I want to have.
[54:17] Speaker 1: Only five assists. So, shit like that, right? I said,
[54:19] Speaker 1: I mean, only five. Like it didn't matter. So, what
[54:22] Speaker 1: was Nikola's numbers? 32, seven, and 12. Seven what? Assists.
[54:28] Speaker 1: So one guy had five assists. One had five. One
[54:31] Speaker 1: guy had seven assists. One guy had 12 rebounds. One
[54:34] Speaker 1: guy had 14. So who produced the most points? On
[54:38] Speaker 1: the offensive end of the.
[54:40] Speaker 7: So, because he had two more.
[54:41] Speaker 1: Because he had two more fucking assists. I'm going to
[54:44] Speaker 1: say Anthony Davis because... Hold on. Because Anthony Davis' assists
[54:49] Speaker 1: were all threes. I'm going to say Anthony Davis. Okay,
[54:51] Speaker 1: then Joker was all threes. We can't confirm that. We
[54:54] Speaker 1: can't confirm that. So, therefore, you're not... So, therefore....
[54:58] Speaker 6: Jokic was all three.
[55:01] Speaker 1: So that's 21 extra points. So what is your argument now?
[55:04] Speaker 1: So 21 and so blocks. Blocks. Blocks. Blocks. Blocks. Blocks. Blocks. Blocks. Blocks.
[55:09] Speaker 2: Blocks.
[55:09] Speaker 1: Blocks.
[55:22] Speaker 4: And when we're canceling players out, if one person has
[55:27] Speaker 4: the same amount of points, a few more assists, he's
[55:30] Speaker 4: putting more points.
[55:31] Speaker 1: No, not necessarily. Okay. No, not necessarily. How many points
[55:35] Speaker 1: do you want to make the assists? So we can
[55:36] Speaker 1: make it even. No, because all of his could be twos,
[55:39] Speaker 1: all of his could be threes. It could be, but
[55:40] Speaker 1: we don't know that. We don't know. So one has
[55:42] Speaker 1: seven assists, one has five.
[55:43] Speaker 6: So you don't know what the points were. So you
[55:45] Speaker 6: don't know what the points were, do you? Do you
[55:46] Speaker 6: know what the points were?
[55:49] Speaker 1: No.
[55:50] Speaker 6: So therefore, your argument is incomplete. No, it's not incomplete.
[55:53] Speaker 1: Yeah, because you're making shit up. You're making shit up.
[55:57] Speaker 1: You always want to talk facts, right? What are the
[55:59] Speaker 1: facts here? The facts are you don't know the fucking numbers.
[56:02] Speaker 1: Don't know the numbers. So you can't make a conclusion.
[56:05] Speaker 1: There ain't no conclusion when you don't know the numbers.
[56:08] Speaker 1: Let's go! Let's go! No matter how you want to
[56:13] Speaker 1: do it. How many points did they have over the
[56:15] Speaker 1: five assists? How many points did they have over seven assists?
[56:26] Speaker 1: The number you belong is no longer in service. Give
[56:30] Speaker 1: me that. Please check the number. He got the pin now. Uh-oh.
[56:34] Speaker 2: He got the pin. Don't write on the me on
[56:36] Speaker 2: this box, please. Don't write on the me on this box, please.
[56:39] Speaker 2: Don't write on the me.
[56:40] Speaker 1: Do your homework, then we'll go play by play. Since
[56:43] Speaker 1: you always want to bring up stats and facts, do
[56:46] Speaker 1: your fucking homework. You might want to calm down. You
[56:50] Speaker 1: might look stupid on this one. Well, I'm going to
[56:51] Speaker 1: look stupid. I want to know the numbers. I don't
[56:53] Speaker 1: look stupid when I want to know the fucking numbers.
[56:55] Speaker 1: You got to go get the numbers. He's not stupid.
[56:56] Speaker 1: He's Kenyon Martin. You got to go get the numbers.
[56:58] Speaker 1: You got to go get them. You got to go
[56:59] Speaker 1: get them. And I'm going to get them. Anthony Davis
[57:01] Speaker 1: could have produced more on the cola. On the cola.
[57:03] Speaker 1: I don't fucking know, so I'm not going to fucking guess.
[57:06] Speaker 1: So go do your homework, then finish your conversation.
[57:10] Speaker 2: Boogie, you picked a great day to pull up to
[57:12] Speaker 2: the arena tonight. But I want to ask you a
[57:14] Speaker 2: question real quick. My dude does his research.
[57:16] Speaker 1: Nonsense. Facts, man. Facts, man.
[57:19] Speaker 2: You ain't played in the league since 2022, but you've
[57:21] Speaker 2: been playing overseas. Like I said, you won a chip
[57:23] Speaker 2: finals MVP, balling in Taiwan. Look good right now.
[57:26] Speaker 1: Yeah. How was that? You still want to continue your
[57:28] Speaker 1: NBA career, or where are you at right now? Hell nah,
[57:30] Speaker 1: I'm straight. You good? Yeah, I'm good. I like where
[57:32] Speaker 1: I'm at right now. I get it.
[57:34] Speaker 3: Lakers need a big man. Lakers need a big man.
[57:35] Speaker 3: That ain't my concern. I'm enjoying life, man. I'm enjoying
[57:42] Speaker 3: being home with the fam. Like, I'm moving all around
[57:45] Speaker 3: the world, seeing different shit. So I like where life
[57:47] Speaker 3: is at right now. To be locked down in the
[57:49] Speaker 3: NBA season, I'm just kind of past that. I mean,
[57:51] Speaker 3: unless it's some lucrative deal I can't pass up. We
[57:54] Speaker 3: going to get Rob on the phone? I mean, outside
[57:56] Speaker 3: of that, they passing out minimums. I'm cool on that. Okay.
[57:59] Speaker 1: We respect that. How long did that take? I know
[58:01] Speaker 1: it took a lot of us, all of us, like,
[58:03] Speaker 1: to really be over the NBA? Like... How long did
[58:06] Speaker 1: it take me?
[58:06] Speaker 10: Yeah.
[58:07] Speaker 1: Shit.
[58:08] Speaker 3: I would say, you know, after that first year out,
[58:10] Speaker 3: you know, I got to travel a lot. I saw
[58:12] Speaker 3: a lot of different cultures, a lot of different leagues.
[58:15] Speaker 3: And the biggest thing is just the money worldwide.
[58:18] Speaker 1: Like, and... you know, naturally I'm hustling.
[58:21] Speaker 3: So it got my blood going once I, you know,
[58:24] Speaker 3: got to experience that. So it was, it was easy
[58:26] Speaker 3: for me to like just close that chapter and look
[58:29] Speaker 3: to open a new door in my life.
[58:30] Speaker 1: And love was different over there. Man, love. I mean,
[58:34] Speaker 1: it ain't even just that.
[58:35] Speaker 3: Cause you know, I feel like with that, with that
[58:38] Speaker 3: part of my life, as far as, you know, being
[58:40] Speaker 3: a star or whatever the case may be, I think
[58:42] Speaker 3: that's stamped.
[58:42] Speaker 1: Like that's, and that's, and that comes, comes and goes.
[58:45] Speaker 3: But like I said, I'm at the point now where I'm,
[58:48] Speaker 3: I'm experiencing so much new stuff, all these new cultures,
[58:51] Speaker 3: like different people. I'm making money in ways I never
[58:54] Speaker 3: have before. So, you know what I'm saying? I'm enjoying
[58:56] Speaker 3: this part of life and that's.
[58:57] Speaker 1: What I'm at with it.
[58:59] Speaker 6: When you was trying to get back in, did you
[59:01] Speaker 6: find a, did they ever give you a reason why
[59:03] Speaker 6: for you to close that book?
[59:06] Speaker 3: I never got a real reason. That's one thing about
[59:09] Speaker 3: the league. They're going to put sugar on shit. That's
[59:12] Speaker 3: just what they do. It can be for whatever reason.
[59:16] Speaker 3: It could have been because you looked at a person
[59:17] Speaker 3: the wrong way. That's just the league. For me, it
[59:21] Speaker 3: was more so about finding comfort in my situation and
[59:24] Speaker 3: being able to move on from it so I could
[59:26] Speaker 3: still be productive in my life. And it actually came
[59:29] Speaker 3: easier than I thought it would, so I'm cool with that.
[59:31] Speaker 7: People still want to pay you for your talent. People
[59:33] Speaker 7: still want to be around you, just as these people don't.
[59:35] Speaker 7: Because I get paid to talk now. I tell KJ
[59:39] Speaker 7: all the time, bro, listen, people paying green money all
[59:42] Speaker 7: around the world to play basketball and your talent.
[59:44] Speaker 1: Absolutely.
[59:45] Speaker 3: If it don't work out over here, bro, it ain't
[59:46] Speaker 3: the end of it. There's so many places to go
[59:47] Speaker 3: play the game, bro.
[59:48] Speaker 7: So much to do, so much to see, bro. No,
[59:50] Speaker 7: but I'm happy for you, man, for being able to
[59:53] Speaker 7: do that, right?
[59:54] Speaker 4: Right.
[59:55] Speaker 7: Being able to close that. Realizing what your talent is.
[59:58] Speaker 7: Realize what you still brought to the game and what
[1:00:00] Speaker 7: you had to give. Because it takes people a lot
[1:00:03] Speaker 7: longer than that, dog.
[1:00:04] Speaker 1: It does.
[1:00:04] Speaker 7: Just keep pushing at that, pushing at that, pushing at that.
[1:00:09] Speaker 4: And even with that, the fact that you said that,
[1:00:12] Speaker 4: I want to create avenues for guys having to make
[1:00:15] Speaker 4: that transition.
[1:00:15] Speaker 1: That shit hard, bro.
[1:00:17] Speaker 3: And the average person don't understand, but when you've been
[1:00:20] Speaker 3: a fucking athlete your whole life and then the next
[1:00:23] Speaker 3: day they just telling you to turn that off and
[1:00:25] Speaker 3: become something else.
[1:00:26] Speaker 1: That's a hard transition.
[1:00:27] Speaker 3: So, you know, just trying to create avenues and different,
[1:00:31] Speaker 3: you know, platforms and areas for guys that are trying
[1:00:33] Speaker 3: to make that transition. Because it's, I mean, at the
[1:00:36] Speaker 3: end of the day, we all family, we all a brotherhood.
[1:00:38] Speaker 3: So we all going through the same struggles at some
[1:00:40] Speaker 3: point in our life.
[1:00:41] Speaker 1: Yeah, absolutely.
[1:00:42] Speaker 6: I want to open up this conversation for you. I
[1:00:46] Speaker 6: believe you were on a Hall of Fame trajectory.
[1:00:49] Speaker 1: For sure.
[1:00:50] Speaker 6: And you got to play with Isaiah and Sac. You guys,
[1:00:55] Speaker 6: early on, was said to have bumped heads.
[1:00:58] Speaker 1: Who? Me and IT? Yeah. Was said. The rumors.
[1:01:01] Speaker 6: But as we've grown to see y'all both flourish and
[1:01:05] Speaker 6: your career started to go in a certain way, I
[1:01:10] Speaker 6: look back and I see that last season with New
[1:01:13] Speaker 6: Orleans and then that first season with the Warriors. I
[1:01:16] Speaker 6: want to know what your mentality was with that adjustment
[1:01:19] Speaker 6: as you were 25 and 15 and you on.
[1:01:21] Speaker 1: The way to take off, like literally.
[1:01:26] Speaker 6: And everybody was still kind of beefing with you. You know,
[1:01:29] Speaker 6: you had certain media personalities questioning you, all that type
[1:01:33] Speaker 6: of shit. I want to know what, well, I would
[1:01:35] Speaker 6: like the kids and the young people to know what
[1:01:37] Speaker 6: that mentality transition was to go from New Orleans to
[1:01:41] Speaker 6: the Warriors, championship swag, knowing that you got a thou back,
[1:01:47] Speaker 6: who Boogie really is.
[1:01:48] Speaker 1: What was that like?
[1:01:50] Speaker 3: It was actually easy for me because, um, You know,
[1:01:54] Speaker 3: going into that situation, you know, I had conversations with
[1:01:57] Speaker 3: Steve Kerr and, you know, to his credit, he was,
[1:02:01] Speaker 3: you know, he was upfront, he was honest. He told
[1:02:02] Speaker 3: me exactly what he was looking for from me. And
[1:02:06] Speaker 3: obviously joining a team like that, you know, you got
[1:02:08] Speaker 3: one already well-oiled machine. So for me to come in
[1:02:12] Speaker 3: thinking like, I'm going to make this my show, that's
[1:02:15] Speaker 3: just foolishness. So that definitely wasn't my mindset, but it
[1:02:18] Speaker 3: was more so, you know, one, I had come from,
[1:02:22] Speaker 3: I started my career off in a losing situation. So
[1:02:25] Speaker 3: learning how to win at this level was something that
[1:02:27] Speaker 3: I was all, well, I ain't going to say learning
[1:02:29] Speaker 3: how to win, just experiencing winning. That was always something
[1:02:32] Speaker 3: that I wanted. So, you know, once I joined the Warriors,
[1:02:36] Speaker 3: that's all it was about for me, fitting in with
[1:02:37] Speaker 3: this puzzle, learning from these Hall of Famers, learning from,
[1:02:40] Speaker 3: you know, guys that have won championships. So for me,
[1:02:44] Speaker 3: and we all went in with the agreement that this
[1:02:46] Speaker 3: was a one-year deal, you know what I'm saying? So
[1:02:48] Speaker 3: for me, it was all about learning the situation, taking
[1:02:51] Speaker 3: as much as I can from these Hall of Famers
[1:02:52] Speaker 3: and going on to my next, you know, situation and
[1:02:55] Speaker 3: spreading that, you know, that knowledge. So that's kind of
[1:02:59] Speaker 3: what the mindset was. But I just wanted to fit in.
[1:03:01] Speaker 3: I wanted to help these guys win. I wanted to,
[1:03:03] Speaker 3: you know, bring my talents because it was a missing
[1:03:06] Speaker 3: piece that they didn't have. Obviously, I didn't want to
[1:03:09] Speaker 3: mess up the flow of anything going on.
[1:03:10] Speaker 6: As far as ego is concerned, like how a lot
[1:03:13] Speaker 6: of people miss– what the ego is of an athlete
[1:03:18] Speaker 6: and the understanding of fitting into that puzzle, like you said,
[1:03:22] Speaker 6: and everybody would expect, man, how the fucking boogie fit
[1:03:25] Speaker 6: into the Warriors like this, and he go from this,
[1:03:28] Speaker 6: and now he's at this, and then that one year
[1:03:30] Speaker 6: is up, and it's like, well, where does he fit now?
[1:03:33] Speaker 1: Right. Right?
[1:03:34] Speaker 6: So how do you have, that's what a lot of
[1:03:36] Speaker 6: guys go through, those soft spots where you don't really
[1:03:39] Speaker 6: know what's up.
[1:03:40] Speaker 3: Well, shit, for me, it was a little more interesting
[1:03:43] Speaker 3: because I ended up getting hurt in that season, so...
[1:03:45] Speaker 3: You know, my intentions going in and the plan coming
[1:03:48] Speaker 3: out of that season obviously didn't go as planned. So
[1:03:52] Speaker 3: once I kind of experienced that injury, then everything kind
[1:03:54] Speaker 3: of had to switch up. And that was probably the
[1:03:58] Speaker 3: hardest transition for me at that point, because, you know,
[1:04:02] Speaker 3: suffering two major injuries back to back. Before all that,
[1:04:06] Speaker 3: my mindset is I'm a killer. I step on the court.
[1:04:10] Speaker 3: You know what it is like. That's always been my mindset.
[1:04:13] Speaker 3: I've trained myself to be that my entire life. So
[1:04:16] Speaker 3: for then, for that to now be, well, we want
[1:04:19] Speaker 3: you to be a veteran guy on the bench, and it's.
[1:04:22] Speaker 1: Just like, damn. Already? That fast.
[1:04:26] Speaker 4: And it's like, damn, I get it.
[1:04:28] Speaker 3: And by nature, I'm that anyway. I get a young boy,
[1:04:31] Speaker 3: I'm taking him under my wing. I'm always giving knowledge.
[1:04:35] Speaker 3: That's just a responsibility by default. But, you know, for
[1:04:38] Speaker 3: them to, you know, you're not playing. We just need
[1:04:41] Speaker 3: you to do this. It's like, God damn, bro.
[1:04:43] Speaker 1: I don't even really know how to do that. Exactly.
[1:04:45] Speaker 1: So that was the hardest thing.
[1:04:49] Speaker 3: And then they put you in a situation where now
[1:04:52] Speaker 3: you're behind these young guys. I'm still technically in the
[1:04:56] Speaker 3: prime of my career. So it was just a hard transition.
[1:05:00] Speaker 3: And I don't mind stepping back and, you know, being
[1:05:03] Speaker 3: a team guy.
[1:05:04] Speaker 1: I'm that by nature. Yeah.
[1:05:06] Speaker 4: Once it comes to the point where I'm not playing,
[1:05:09] Speaker 4: that's where it gets a little difficult.
[1:05:13] Speaker 1: If it's for the betterment of the team, I understand.
[1:05:16] Speaker 3: If I'm not playing just for us to be a
[1:05:17] Speaker 3: losing team, I really don't fucking understand.
[1:05:19] Speaker 1: Especially when you can help win.
[1:05:22] Speaker 4: Yeah, it's a weird transition, and then that's when the
[1:05:25] Speaker 4: business part really comes into play.
[1:05:27] Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying?
[1:05:28] Speaker 3: You start realizing that at the beginning of every NBA season,
[1:05:31] Speaker 3: it's probably really about six teams that's competing for a
[1:05:36] Speaker 3: championship you talk about that all the time everybody else
[1:05:39] Speaker 3: they just trying to sell tickets they just trying to
[1:05:41] Speaker 3: make sure they don't lose season ticket holders let's keep
[1:05:44] Speaker 3: them afloat long enough to get these off and you
[1:05:47] Speaker 3: know whatever happens happens so for the most part it's
[1:05:50] Speaker 3: only six teams trying to win and you start learning
[1:05:53] Speaker 3: like you know most teams just trying to tame they
[1:05:55] Speaker 3: trying to gather draft capital whatever case may be you
[1:05:58] Speaker 3: just a part of the You know, you're just a
[1:06:00] Speaker 3: part of the bullshit. But at the same time, they
[1:06:03] Speaker 3: want you to walk around with this mindset of.
[1:06:05] Speaker 4: Being, you know, always ready. I'm ready to play whenever.
[1:06:09] Speaker 4: It's just like, motherfuckers, y'all ain't ready. Like, what am
[1:06:13] Speaker 4: I preparing for?
[1:06:14] Speaker 1: Like, to lose? I don't even know how to do that.
[1:06:16] Speaker 3: Like, I prepare every day. I train every day to
[1:06:19] Speaker 3: be a winner. But you're telling me to be a winner,
[1:06:22] Speaker 3: but also prepare to lose. So I don't know.
[1:06:25] Speaker 4: How to do this, brother. So when it comes to, like,
[1:06:28] Speaker 4: our legacies... Oh, man. They're doing it wrong, right? With
[1:06:32] Speaker 4: the contract.
[1:06:33] Speaker 3: Bro, my problem with that part is like, you really
[1:06:35] Speaker 3: don't under, like, you gotta kind of be on both
[1:06:38] Speaker 3: sides of it to understand, like, you really aren't in
[1:06:40] Speaker 3: control of your legacy.
[1:06:42] Speaker 1: Like, as much as they try to, like.
[1:06:44] Speaker 4: They sell you this dream, all you gotta do is
[1:06:45] Speaker 4: work hard, work on basketball every day, you can go
[1:06:48] Speaker 4: be the greatest, it's.
[1:06:49] Speaker 1: Up to you. Like, nah, motherfucker, it ain't that simple.
[1:06:52] Speaker 1: Say it again. It's really not that simple, bro. It's
[1:06:55] Speaker 1: not ever that simple.
[1:06:56] Speaker 3: Because once you get to this side, now your legacy
[1:06:59] Speaker 3: is in that organization's hands.
[1:07:01] Speaker 1: Yep.
[1:07:02] Speaker 3: And if you fuck around and go to the wrong organization, oh, shit.
[1:07:05] Speaker 1: Legacy what? Doghouse. Who the fuck is that? Who is he? Oh,
[1:07:09] Speaker 1: he's a bust. Like, God. Damn. We thought he was good. Yeah.
[1:07:13] Speaker 3: Well, I didn't really get an opportunity to get put
[1:07:16] Speaker 3: in the right situation.
[1:07:16] Speaker 1: No shake. I got no shake.
[1:07:18] Speaker 3: I mean, since I've been drafted here, we've been rebuilding
[1:07:20] Speaker 3: for the past six.
[1:07:21] Speaker 1: Seven years. Oh, yeah. How the fuck is that my fault? Damn.
[1:07:23] Speaker 1: I feel like you could have been an all-star if
[1:07:25] Speaker 1: they wasn't.
[1:07:27] Speaker 5: Doing it by this era, they don't count the record.
[1:07:30] Speaker 5: It's more about stats. Like, you had the stats. No,
[1:07:32] Speaker 5: they count the record still. I made some all-stars on basketball.
[1:07:37] Speaker 5: I know, but in the beginning, yeah, in the beginning,
[1:07:39] Speaker 5: when they was like.
[1:07:39] Speaker 1: I mean, for me, I didn't look at it like that.
[1:07:41] Speaker 3: I'm bald. I didn't look at it like that because
[1:07:44] Speaker 3: of the guys that were in front of me. I mean,
[1:07:46] Speaker 3: I came in, Tim Duncan was still Tim Duncan.
[1:07:49] Speaker 1: Cole was still Cole. You had.
[1:07:51] Speaker 3: Andrew Bynum, Paul Gasol, running shit. Like, so I was
[1:07:54] Speaker 3: behind some... Z-Bo, Mark Gasol, you had, like, real dogs
[1:07:58] Speaker 3: in front of me. So, for me, I didn't look
[1:08:00] Speaker 3: at it as, you know, I'm in a losing situation,
[1:08:02] Speaker 3: I can't make it.
[1:08:03] Speaker 1: It's just like, bro, you gonna have to... Do what's better.
[1:08:05] Speaker 1: You gonna have to outshine all these motherfuckers in front
[1:08:07] Speaker 1: of you. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, I mean... And I can't
[1:08:10] Speaker 1: control my situation. Can't control that, yeah. But he know
[1:08:12] Speaker 1: in the back of his mind... In my.
[1:08:14] Speaker 3: Head, though, I'm going in, I gotta figure out a
[1:08:16] Speaker 3: way to outshine all these motherfuckers in.
[1:08:18] Speaker 1: Front of me. When I went to Denver....
[1:08:21] Speaker 7: We talked about when I went to Denver, when I
[1:08:22] Speaker 7: stepped foot in Denver coming from the east to the west,
[1:08:26] Speaker 7: I was the motherfuckin' sixth, seventh, best power forward out
[1:08:29] Speaker 7: that motherfucker. And a straight killer at the time. Before injuries,
[1:08:34] Speaker 7: before any micro fracture, all that shit, I was like that.
[1:08:38] Speaker 7: And I stepped foot, I was KG, Tim, everybody you
[1:08:41] Speaker 7: named was still them. So, coming in as a youngster, absolutely, yeah. No,
[1:08:46] Speaker 7: it's just- He was still there too, right? He doing
[1:08:48] Speaker 7: his thing. So, you still, like, you got to motherfucking
[1:08:51] Speaker 7: show up.
[1:08:51] Speaker 1: Hell yeah.
[1:08:52] Speaker 7: Elton Brand was motherfucking double dope.
[1:08:55] Speaker 1: So, it's, yeah, you, yeah. He be cold with it.
[1:08:59] Speaker 4: Yeah, it's just like when you start looking at rankings
[1:09:02] Speaker 4: and people say whose career is better and you're using
[1:09:06] Speaker 4: winning matrix, it's like, so basically anybody who gets drafted to,
[1:09:11] Speaker 4: not these new Clippers, the Clippers in the last 40 years,
[1:09:16] Speaker 4: you'll You don't have a legacy, right?
[1:09:18] Speaker 1: Your legacy is washed.
[1:09:20] Speaker 4: Anybody who got drafted to Minnesota, Milwaukee, Memphis, Charlotte, like
[1:09:28] Speaker 4: teams we know, right? There's only six teams, right, that
[1:09:31] Speaker 4: want to actually win a championship, that are actually sitting
[1:09:34] Speaker 4: here saying, we want to win.
[1:09:36] Speaker 1: Everybody else trying to make the playoffs.
[1:09:37] Speaker 4: So the 24 of you, the 24 teams, all you players,
[1:09:43] Speaker 4: fuck your legacies don't mean shit.
[1:09:46] Speaker 1: No. No. So when people sit here.
[1:09:48] Speaker 4: And say, well, why'd you have to go leave to
[1:09:51] Speaker 4: go win the championship? I play for the Cleveland Cavaliers.
[1:09:55] Speaker 4: I play for OKC. They're not trying to win a championship.
[1:09:59] Speaker 4: They was just happy.
[1:10:00] Speaker 1: To make the playoffs. They're just here to make the
[1:10:03] Speaker 1: playoffs every year.
[1:10:04] Speaker 4: They don't want to actually win a championship. So for
[1:10:07] Speaker 4: me to say I want to be put in this
[1:10:10] Speaker 4: realm and you guys are using rings, I need to
[1:10:14] Speaker 4: go to a team that's part of the one through six.
[1:10:18] Speaker 6: Imagine being a college player winning a national title coming
[1:10:22] Speaker 6: into the league to a team that's not in that
[1:10:25] Speaker 6: top six and ain't even fucking thinking about winning and
[1:10:28] Speaker 6: you go in thinking your legacy is going to be
[1:10:31] Speaker 6: built around turning the shit around and it's like they
[1:10:34] Speaker 6: don't want to turn around they want to keep their
[1:10:36] Speaker 6: ass looking this way they don't focus on nothing but
[1:10:39] Speaker 6: how can we turn our profit to stay in the
[1:10:42] Speaker 6: black you don't give a fuck about your legacy everybody
[1:10:45] Speaker 6: go to Eric's Graveyard Graveyards.
[1:10:48] Speaker 1: Sac, Minnesota, Portland, certainty. Graveyard. You go there, it's like, fuck,
[1:10:53] Speaker 1: get me out of here. The first year, if you
[1:10:54] Speaker 1: can't get me out of here, Dan, it's over. Graveyard.
[1:10:57] Speaker 1: That's what I'm saying. It's like the legacy.
[1:10:59] Speaker 4: You seeing these guys in front of me on this
[1:11:02] Speaker 4: greatness chart because.
[1:11:04] Speaker 1: He got drafted to the Lakers, Boston, Chicago, right? One
[1:11:11] Speaker 1: of those, the.
[1:11:11] Speaker 4: Three major cities that want to win, right? He gets
[1:11:15] Speaker 4: drafted there, and because he got championships, he's in front
[1:11:18] Speaker 4: of me, but, you know, when.
[1:11:19] Speaker 1: You match yourself, a dog walk the fuck out there. Exactly.
[1:11:22] Speaker 1: You know what I mean? And that's what I don't like.
[1:11:24] Speaker 1: What did y'all say? Because if you look.
[1:11:25] Speaker 4: At the top 50 or the top, when he did
[1:11:28] Speaker 4: the original top 50, right, if you look at the
[1:11:30] Speaker 4: cities they came.
[1:11:31] Speaker 1: From, 39 of them, all big cities.
[1:11:36] Speaker 5: Would you say the Warriors was a graveyard until they
[1:11:38] Speaker 5: started winning, though?
[1:11:39] Speaker 1: Huh? Did you just say it? No, think about it.
[1:11:43] Speaker 4: Yeah, but they were still a big market team. Yeah,
[1:11:45] Speaker 4: they were a graveyard city. Right, no matter what, Yannis,
[1:11:49] Speaker 4: no matter what. Yeah, that's what I'm saying. Shit, yeah.
[1:11:53] Speaker 4: It used to be loud in there.
[1:11:55] Speaker 1: It was loud in that motherfucker, but that's what I'm
[1:11:57] Speaker 1: trying to say. It'd be rockin' in that motherfucker, but
[1:11:59] Speaker 1: they sucked. Yeah. Yeah, like New York, right? Yeah.
[1:12:03] Speaker 4: You go there, there ain't really shit going on there,
[1:12:08] Speaker 4: but when they start, whoever starts winning there, his legacy
[1:12:11] Speaker 4: just automatically jumps.
[1:12:14] Speaker 1: Might or might sell the team. Right, you know what
[1:12:16] Speaker 1: I mean? Think different. If Brunson wins one championship....
[1:12:20] Speaker 4: They're going to say he's the greatest Knick ever.
[1:12:23] Speaker 1: Championship? If he make a conference finals. They're going to
[1:12:26] Speaker 1: wash out all of Patrick Ewan.
[1:12:27] Speaker 4: They're going to pretend all of Patrick Ewan, all-stars, all-NBA,
[1:12:32] Speaker 4: they're going to wipe that shit out the window.
[1:12:35] Speaker 1: He never got us a title. He never got us
[1:12:38] Speaker 1: a title. He never got us a title. He never
[1:12:40] Speaker 1: got us to this point. He got to get us here.
[1:12:41] Speaker 1: He got to get us to this point.
[1:12:43] Speaker 6: Ain't nowhere for them to build no statue. They're going
[1:12:46] Speaker 6: to find somewhere in that motherfucker.
[1:12:48] Speaker 1: In New York City, the building's standing. Put that bitch
[1:12:50] Speaker 1: in the elevator. We got to. In the fucking elevator.
[1:12:53] Speaker 1: Right when y'all get off the bus, y'all going to
[1:12:56] Speaker 1: see this motherfucker. You're going to see this motherfucker. Everybody
[1:12:58] Speaker 1: waiting on the goddamn elevator. All right, well, let's keep
[1:13:01] Speaker 1: this thing moving.
[1:13:02] Speaker 2: So, Gil, you're getting your mic fixed, but before you
[1:13:05] Speaker 2: came in, we were talking a little like, Gil, I
[1:13:07] Speaker 2: noticed that you wrote all over the MeUndies box, so
[1:13:09] Speaker 2: now this is the collector's edition box. So what's the numbers, Gilbert?
[1:13:12] Speaker 2: With your AD Joker?
[1:13:14] Speaker 4: Game one, Anthony Davis totals is 44. Jokic is 49.
[1:13:20] Speaker 1: Game two. That's not what we asked.
[1:13:22] Speaker 4: Game two, Andy Davis had 32, and he had two assists,
[1:13:28] Speaker 4: which his totals were 37. Jokic had 27 and 10.
[1:13:34] Speaker 4: And his output was 52 points.
[1:13:37] Speaker 1: With rebounds?
[1:13:38] Speaker 2: With the points and assists combined. And the points and
[1:13:40] Speaker 2: assists combined. So that's not what we asked you, though.
[1:13:43] Speaker 4: It is.
[1:13:43] Speaker 1: I thought you said assists. No, I asked how many assists,
[1:13:46] Speaker 1: how many points. If I said five.
[1:13:48] Speaker 4: Points, one was a two, one was a three.
[1:13:52] Speaker 1: So that's five points. So how many points each game?
[1:13:54] Speaker 4: So, Anthony Davis' five assists came up to 12 points.
[1:13:57] Speaker 4: Jokic came up to 17. Okay, that's what I asked.
[1:13:59] Speaker 4: Plus five for Jokic. That's what I asked you. Then
[1:14:01] Speaker 4: the next one was... What was the numbers I asked
[1:14:02] Speaker 4: you for? Well, it was 32, and Anthony Davis' two
[1:14:05] Speaker 4: assists came to five points, and Jokic's 10 assists came
[1:14:09] Speaker 4: to 25 points, which the output was 52 to 37,
[1:14:15] Speaker 4: and Denver won by two points that game.
[1:14:18] Speaker 1: But the output was a plus 15. Okay, I got
[1:14:20] Speaker 1: a question. How many games is that a total over there?
[1:14:23] Speaker 1: This is two. You want me to do some more?
[1:14:24] Speaker 1: He said all the games, bro. I can tell you
[1:14:27] Speaker 1: it's going to look worse.
[1:14:28] Speaker 7: But how many games total was it played?
[1:14:30] Speaker 1: He did glance.
[1:14:31] Speaker 7: How many games total was played?
[1:14:33] Speaker 1: Was it like four? This is playoffs or this is season?
[1:14:37] Speaker 1: So they got swept. They got swept. Kick their fucking ass, man.
[1:14:40] Speaker 1: They got swept. Gentlemen, gentlemen. We're trying to figure out
[1:14:42] Speaker 1: what the argument is. The argument is he's trying to
[1:14:43] Speaker 1: use stats to overcome the ass.
[1:14:44] Speaker 4: Well, I wanted the number. I'm saying with Luka there now, right?
[1:14:49] Speaker 4: When you have someone who has 27 and 10 and
[1:14:53] Speaker 4: he's putting in 52 offensive points with his twos and
[1:14:57] Speaker 4: threes when Anthony Davis wasn't, this is the game.
[1:15:01] Speaker 1: So do we count the points you give up? Probably.
[1:15:06] Speaker 1: But they're giving up the same to each other.
[1:15:08] Speaker 4: You're averaging 32, I'm averaging 32.
[1:15:10] Speaker 3: I mean, that's what I was saying. You can't really
[1:15:12] Speaker 3: compare because it's two different positions. And it's two different
[1:15:15] Speaker 3: types of players. But what I'm saying is just output itself.
[1:15:17] Speaker 4: So someone like Luka who averages 32.
[1:15:19] Speaker 3: I don't feel like you can compare the output, though,
[1:15:21] Speaker 3: because it's two different positions.
[1:15:22] Speaker 1: And it's affecting the game. What part of the output
[1:15:23] Speaker 1: is affecting the game?
[1:15:24] Speaker 3: So if Anthony Davis deflects a shot and doesn't block it,
[1:15:28] Speaker 3: how do we write that stat down?
[1:15:30] Speaker 1: We don't. but that has an effect on the game.
[1:15:32] Speaker 1: That's part of the output. So we can't compare. That
[1:15:36] Speaker 1: deflection can lead to a bucket. That's a point. That
[1:15:39] Speaker 1: blocked shot leads to a fast break. Boom, two points.
[1:15:42] Speaker 1: That's not, that's not, that's AD's points. Those are AD's points.
[1:15:45] Speaker 1: So you can't compare. What do you mean you don't
[1:15:47] Speaker 1: know that?
[1:15:48] Speaker 6: If he averaging five blocks, you have to put that
[1:15:50] Speaker 6: in to the possibility. The possibility that AD's five blocks
[1:15:54] Speaker 6: a game can lead.
[1:15:55] Speaker 1: To Four to six. Not even a block. Five deflections.
[1:15:59] Speaker 1: Five deflections can lead to it. But if they don't
[1:16:02] Speaker 1: lead to any points. Five contests can lead to it.
[1:16:06] Speaker 4: Just for argument's sake, I didn't even put in the
[1:16:09] Speaker 4: free throws that the Denver Nuggets got off of the pass.
[1:16:13] Speaker 1: Jokic gave and got fouled. I didn't even add that in.
[1:16:18] Speaker 1: But I was just trying to show you this. Why
[1:16:20] Speaker 1: would you?
[1:16:20] Speaker 4: I feel like you're making more and more layers.
[1:16:22] Speaker 1: Hold on, hold on. Who made the goalposts, Gil? I'm
[1:16:24] Speaker 1: trying to lead. Please go do it. Please go do it.
[1:16:27] Speaker 1: Waste your fucking time and do whatever you're supposed to
[1:16:31] Speaker 1: go do. Please go look it up. Someone who averages
[1:16:33] Speaker 1: 32.99 assists.
[1:16:46] Speaker 4: The total points that he brings into a game matches
[1:16:50] Speaker 4: what Jokic brings.
[1:16:52] Speaker 1: So those two kind of cancel each other out.
[1:16:54] Speaker 4: So I'm saying Lakers now have a better chance with
[1:16:58] Speaker 4: someone like Luka on the floor because he can match
[1:17:01] Speaker 4: Jokic's Total points.
[1:17:03] Speaker 1: So now LeBron versus... We go like that.
[1:17:07] Speaker 4: When you're talking about 80s putting in 37 points and
[1:17:09] Speaker 4: Jokic putting in 52, that matchup is lopsided. Someone else
[1:17:13] Speaker 4: has to make up that.
[1:17:14] Speaker 1: I get all that, but the fact that.
[1:17:16] Speaker 3: So the slack that Luka picks up... Does that not
[1:17:19] Speaker 3: take away from the next guy next to him, though?
[1:17:21] Speaker 3: Does that not take away from.
[1:17:22] Speaker 1: An Austin Reed?
[1:17:23] Speaker 3: Does that not then create the same type balance?
[1:17:27] Speaker 4: But that's what I'm saying. It trinkles down. But no
[1:17:29] Speaker 4: one has to make up a balance. Let's say you're
[1:17:32] Speaker 4: playing against a center, right? And you're averaging 32, right?
[1:17:36] Speaker 4: And this guy averages 10, right? That's 22 points.
[1:17:39] Speaker 1: Someone else... has to figure out how to make up, right?
[1:17:42] Speaker 1: So I have to.
[1:17:43] Speaker 4: Output my shooting guard, the shooting guard or point guard
[1:17:45] Speaker 4: I'm playing against, and try to make up for the
[1:17:48] Speaker 4: fuck you're doing.
[1:17:50] Speaker 1: You feel me? But that's the make-up. And that's what
[1:17:52] Speaker 1: I'm saying. He's the big.
[1:17:54] Speaker 4: We have someone who can now try to cancel you
[1:17:57] Speaker 4: out as close as possible.
[1:17:58] Speaker 1: Hey, Chad, please tell Gil he right.
[1:18:00] Speaker 6: We just got to beat our position. Chad, please tell
[1:18:03] Speaker 6: Gil he right so we can move the fuck on.
[1:18:04] Speaker 1: It is. Because y'all have LaTron and AD to cancel
[1:18:08] Speaker 1: out Joker by himself. I'm not. understanding what he's talking about.
[1:18:12] Speaker 1: It's literally doing the same thing.
[1:18:13] Speaker 4: And you still have LeBron.
[1:18:16] Speaker 1: You still have LeBron that does what Luka does. And
[1:18:19] Speaker 1: you can still lose. It takes you guys to triple.
[1:18:22] Speaker 4: The only thing I think the Lakers got better at
[1:18:25] Speaker 4: is they now have two playmakers, well, two and a
[1:18:28] Speaker 4: half playmakers on the floor.
[1:18:29] Speaker 1: So say that again.
[1:18:30] Speaker 4: You said Luka, I mean, Jokic does what? Jokic was
[1:18:35] Speaker 4: doing what again? Why do when I slow you down
[1:18:40] Speaker 4: so I can hear you say something you don't want
[1:18:42] Speaker 4: to talk about?
[1:18:42] Speaker 1: You just made a statement. I just want to hear it.
[1:18:45] Speaker 2: Because he in Cemetery Lair representing the trenches.
[1:18:47] Speaker 1: Luka, you said Jokic was. He takes out who? No,
[1:18:51] Speaker 1: he said both of them take out Jokic.
[1:18:54] Speaker 7: Y'all had LeBron and AD, and it was basically just Nikola.
[1:18:58] Speaker 1: Yeah, so.
[1:18:59] Speaker 6: And LeBron passes the ball and scores it and rebounds.
[1:19:04] Speaker 1: But not like Luka right now.
[1:19:07] Speaker 7: All of LeBron's and Anthony Davis wasn't good enough.
[1:19:11] Speaker 1: Then. Let's talk about now. Are you saying the Lakers
[1:19:14] Speaker 1: are better now?
[1:19:15] Speaker 4: Yes.
[1:19:15] Speaker 1: I said they have a better chance with Denver because
[1:19:17] Speaker 1: we have... Do you agree or disagree? Do you agree
[1:19:21] Speaker 1: or disagree? Who the fuck is stopping Yoki? Who is
[1:19:24] Speaker 1: stopping him? Who's stopping him? Nobody can stop him. Who's
[1:19:27] Speaker 1: going to contain him? No one. He's going to get
[1:19:34] Speaker 1: his 52. I just want to know who's going to
[1:19:37] Speaker 1: be in the way. Nobody. But that's what I'm saying.
[1:19:41] Speaker 4: So that means he's going to have his 52.
[1:19:44] Speaker 1: Cool.
[1:19:45] Speaker 4: So if he's getting 52. Let's say this. He's a
[1:19:48] Speaker 4: passer by default. So let's not feel like once he
[1:19:50] Speaker 4: gets 50, he's.
[1:19:51] Speaker 1: Going to stop that. But that hurts us now.
[1:19:53] Speaker 4: So he's going to get 50 and?
[1:19:56] Speaker 1: No, he's going to get 20 or 30 and 10.
[1:19:58] Speaker 1: The points are supposed to sit. So everything together, he's
[1:20:01] Speaker 1: bringing in about 52 points.
[1:20:03] Speaker 4: He's bringing about 45 to 60 points himself. We didn't
[1:20:08] Speaker 4: have someone do that. So he was taking out.
[1:20:10] Speaker 1: But y'all now... You did have somebody to do that.
[1:20:13] Speaker 1: You had LeBron James. Why the fuck is he weak?
[1:20:14] Speaker 1: You had LeBron. Why you saying weak? He's a Laker fan.
[1:20:18] Speaker 1: So what I'm saying is... You were on the Lakers
[1:20:20] Speaker 1: side of the couch.
[1:20:20] Speaker 4: He's taking out Anthony Davis and then taking out 15 points.
[1:20:25] Speaker 1: Of what LeBron James is doing. But you're still giving
[1:20:27] Speaker 1: it up. They're giving up points now.
[1:20:30] Speaker 4: But now they have somebody to bounce that off. Just
[1:20:32] Speaker 4: neutralize him in just what he brings to the game.
[1:20:35] Speaker 1: Who? Luka. Stop. I'm saying, what's helping you get stops?
[1:20:40] Speaker 4: Because, all right, you're picking up offensively, but you're also
[1:20:43] Speaker 4: giving up defensively with Luka.
[1:20:45] Speaker 1: I know what you're saying. I know what he's saying.
[1:20:46] Speaker 1: I know what you're saying.
[1:20:47] Speaker 6: He's saying, it's not going to stop at 52 points
[1:20:50] Speaker 6: for Joker. You have no way to stop him from
[1:20:53] Speaker 6: going fast.
[1:20:54] Speaker 4: You don't even have a roadblock, like a traffic cone, nothing.
[1:20:58] Speaker 1: That 12 points was a y'all triple team. We have
[1:21:01] Speaker 1: a one game sample size to go above. I'm not
[1:21:02] Speaker 1: talking about the 12 points.
[1:21:04] Speaker 4: I'm saying if he gets his 30 in 10.
[1:21:06] Speaker 1: It's going to be more than 30. That's what I'm saying.
[1:21:08] Speaker 1: Way more. It was only 12. 40 with 10 assists.
[1:21:12] Speaker 1: The 10 assists are happening. The 10 assists are happening? Yes.
[1:21:16] Speaker 6: AD was there to try to neutralize him from getting it.
[1:21:18] Speaker 4: Neutralize the points. He couldn't neutralize the assists.
[1:21:21] Speaker 1: That's going to happen. That's the only average seven. That's
[1:21:24] Speaker 1: going to happen anyway. The average 10. For the season.
[1:21:28] Speaker 2: But we have a one-game sample size to go off of.
[1:21:31] Speaker 2: Didn't get anywhere near that. But we're going to want
[1:21:32] Speaker 2: to talk about something you said. Lakers having basically two
[1:21:34] Speaker 2: and a half playmakers. So after the game, J.J. Redick
[1:21:37] Speaker 2: had this to say about how the Lakers offense will
[1:21:39] Speaker 2: operate moving forward.
[1:21:40] Speaker 1: He said... Don't keep talking to this man about the Lakers.
[1:21:42] Speaker 1: This shit crazy. This is the biggest game of the weekend.
[1:21:45] Speaker 7: We want to talk this man about something else.
[1:21:47] Speaker 1: We want to talk this man about something else. We
[1:21:49] Speaker 1: want to talk this man about something else. We want
[1:21:51] Speaker 1: to talk this man about something else. We want to
[1:21:54] Speaker 1: talk this man about something else. We want to talk
[1:21:56] Speaker 1: this man about something else. We know y'all be mad. Oh,
[1:22:03] Speaker 1: my God. Where is this show based out of? Y'all
[1:22:05] Speaker 1: love the Lakers. God damn, we talked about it before.
[1:22:07] Speaker 1: You can't talk about it, motherfucker. They love the Lakers, man.
[1:22:10] Speaker 1: God damn.
[1:22:10] Speaker 4: If the Lakers would have lost by 23, they would
[1:22:12] Speaker 4: have wanted to talk about this thing all day long.
[1:22:14] Speaker 7: I have the same energy every fucking time you talk
[1:22:16] Speaker 7: about them, so I don't deviate.
[1:22:17] Speaker 4: Okay, one day you will come over to this side.
[1:22:19] Speaker 1: That is my goal, and that is my hope. And
[1:22:21] Speaker 1: when is that day going to be? Okay. When? Middle
[1:22:24] Speaker 1: of June. When? Middle of June. There's only one way.
[1:22:27] Speaker 1: But J.J.
[1:22:28] Speaker 2: Reddick had this to say about the offense. Junior, go
[1:22:30] Speaker 2: play for them, motherfucker. Can you think we're not working
[1:22:33] Speaker 2: the phones? You think we're not working the phones for you?
[1:22:35] Speaker 1: Listen, watch him. I don't even watch them. Rob Palenka,
[1:22:41] Speaker 1: if you're watching this show. I do not. I'm not
[1:22:44] Speaker 1: buying Spectrum. I'm not spending.
[1:22:46] Speaker 7: Money just to watch one fucking team.
[1:22:48] Speaker 1: A fine sports network.
[1:22:50] Speaker 4: Spectrum is a fine sports network.
[1:22:53] Speaker 1: Shout out Gator Alley and the rest of the crew
[1:22:54] Speaker 1: over there. Just to fucking watch one team.
[1:22:58] Speaker 2: But talking about the offense, JJ said, I think Luka
[1:23:01] Speaker 2: needs to be the guy that controls the offense and
[1:23:03] Speaker 2: LeBron and Austin Reeves can stagger everybody. They're going to
[1:23:07] Speaker 2: have their time to be on the ball. But all
[1:23:09] Speaker 2: three of those guys are very intelligent basketball players. We
[1:23:11] Speaker 2: can create mismatches. We can get teams in the blender.
[1:23:14] Speaker 2: So do you agree with J.J. Redick saying the Lakers
[1:23:16] Speaker 2: offense needs to run through?
[1:23:19] Speaker 1: I don't think that's a J.J. call anywhere. That's coming
[1:23:22] Speaker 1: from the front office. Wait, wait, wait. Say that again.
[1:23:27] Speaker 1: That's crazy. That's coming from the front office, man.
[1:23:30] Speaker 4: Not a player, not a coach is coming from the
[1:23:32] Speaker 4: front office.
[1:23:34] Speaker 3: Obviously, Luka's going to be in control of the office.
[1:23:36] Speaker 3: Because one, you just traded for a generational talent. Two,
[1:23:39] Speaker 3: you traded for a generational talent that didn't necessarily say
[1:23:43] Speaker 3: he wanted to be here. So now you're playing a
[1:23:45] Speaker 3: game of we have to cater to this star because
[1:23:47] Speaker 3: we want to keep him here for the long run.
[1:23:49] Speaker 3: Soon to be 26. Yeah, so I think that came
[1:23:53] Speaker 3: from front office. So I think it's going to be
[1:23:54] Speaker 3: that if they're winning or losing.
[1:23:56] Speaker 2: Do you think it's an effective strategy moving forward? I mean,
[1:24:01] Speaker 2: I think that's business.
[1:24:03] Speaker 1: The game is the game. You got to keep your
[1:24:05] Speaker 1: stars happy. So let's just talk J.J.
[1:24:07] Speaker 2: Redick real quick, and then we can move on.
[1:24:10] Speaker 1: Still going? Can we give J.J. a little love? He
[1:24:12] Speaker 1: has to do the whole thing to get the check, bro.
[1:24:14] Speaker 1: The fuck? He got to do the whole thing. He
[1:24:16] Speaker 1: got to do the whole thing. Yeah, he got to
[1:24:18] Speaker 1: do the whole thing. Man, he can't. They've been sorting
[1:24:23] Speaker 1: his checks.
[1:24:23] Speaker 6: You ain't finishing the whole thing.
[1:24:25] Speaker 4: I'm finishing the whole fucking thing.
[1:24:28] Speaker 1: I'm not giving you the whole check until you do
[1:24:30] Speaker 1: the whole thing, bro. Underdog, director, positive, always on time.
[1:24:33] Speaker 1: I'll be trying to tell you. You interrupted. Stop interrupting them.
[1:24:38] Speaker 1: Stop interrupting them. Yeah, he be trying to... My bad.
[1:24:41] Speaker 1: Shout out to me and Undies. Thank you guys for
[1:24:43] Speaker 1: coming through with the delicious underwear.

[1:25:02] Speaker 1: on to the next topic. Wrap it up, B.
[1:25:04] Speaker 4: Shit.
[1:25:05] Speaker 1: More Lakers talk.
[1:25:06] Speaker 4: But Nuggets head coach Michael Malone was singing a different
[1:25:08] Speaker 4: tune after taking his first L in the Luka Brancic era,
[1:25:12] Speaker 4: admitting his team was outplayed and outcoached.
[1:25:15] Speaker 1: J.J.
[1:25:15] Speaker 2: Redick said he pretty much didn't sleep after the Blazers
[1:25:17] Speaker 2: game Thursday, preparing his game plan for the Nuggets.
[1:25:20] Speaker 1: Lakers are 30? That motherfucker didn't sleep.
[1:25:21] Speaker 7: Two days before playing. That should tell y'all something.
[1:25:24] Speaker 1: He wasn't tired?
[1:25:24] Speaker 7: That motherfucker said he didn't sleep for two days trying
[1:25:26] Speaker 7: to prepare for this game. That should tell y'all something.
[1:25:29] Speaker 1: Then he said, we're just going to triple team him.
[1:25:30] Speaker 1: He dedicated. That's the only thing. That motherfucker couldn't sleep.
[1:25:33] Speaker 1: You know what? Fuck it. Triple team him. We're throwing
[1:25:35] Speaker 1: three at him. We're throwing three at him. I've been
[1:25:39] Speaker 1: staying up for two days to come up with that.
[1:25:42] Speaker 1: I'm up for that shit. What's wrong with that? You
[1:25:45] Speaker 1: could have watched the previous 15 games and they would
[1:25:48] Speaker 1: have told you this. But maybe we should not only
[1:25:51] Speaker 1: put two on, maybe we should try more. Shit. Maybe
[1:25:54] Speaker 1: we should try and get 40. How many people are
[1:25:58] Speaker 1: we allowed to put out the ref? Ten, please.
[1:26:03] Speaker 2: Ten.
[1:26:03] Speaker 1: Shit.
[1:26:04] Speaker 5: People should be like JJ out here.
[1:26:06] Speaker 2: I'll ask Waggie because you seem to be in a
[1:26:08] Speaker 2: little bit better mood. If the score had been reversed,
[1:26:11] Speaker 2: they would have wanted to talk about it all night long.
[1:26:13] Speaker 1: You would have had the bed. You would have had
[1:26:15] Speaker 1: the baby. You would have had the diaper. He would
[1:26:17] Speaker 1: have had all his motherfucking Laker jersey on. What? Had
[1:26:20] Speaker 1: the trash can, the lighter, all. The body bag, the bat.
[1:26:23] Speaker 1: That's the way they did, Joey. I know. Yeah. He knew. Bro,
[1:26:27] Speaker 1: come on. Nah, nah, nah. That don't even make sense. No,
[1:26:30] Speaker 1: because Lil D, no, no. Hey, you like who was
[1:26:33] Speaker 1: the dude that snitched on him that got out? Yeah.
[1:26:36] Speaker 4: He gone.
[1:26:36] Speaker 1: He got locked up for it. Nigga, you are, too.
[1:26:39] Speaker 1: The fuck up.
[1:26:39] Speaker 2: Lil D-Lock no longer on the Lakers.
[1:26:43] Speaker 1: Brown pushed him, you know. Brown got a little get
[1:26:45] Speaker 1: back from him. So you forgiving of the Lakers now? Yeah, man.
[1:26:48] Speaker 1: But they traded him that summer, too, though, after. You, too. No,
[1:26:51] Speaker 1: I was thinking. They got rid of you, bro. Right
[1:26:54] Speaker 1: after that. Basically during the year. They let Nick Explorers on. No, no, no, no, no.
[1:26:59] Speaker 1: I went to the Warriors. No, I remember. We ain't
[1:27:01] Speaker 1: going to talk about that. You played me on that too.
[1:27:03] Speaker 1: I did. Yeah.
[1:27:05] Speaker 3: After the show, we got to talk about that.
[1:27:07] Speaker 1: Uh-oh, there's a situation. Don't worry, you're not the only one.
[1:27:10] Speaker 1: I need that fade. That motherfucker was supposed to sign
[1:27:12] Speaker 1: in New Orleans. He ended up going. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
[1:27:17] Speaker 1: I forgot about that.
[1:27:18] Speaker 5: This is Gil's arena, ladies and gentlemen.
[1:27:20] Speaker 1: I did. He told me to go to New Orleans.
[1:27:21] Speaker 1: And you wanted to go ride the bench. You didn't say.
[1:27:25] Speaker 1: Look, it was them and Denver. I mean, them and Minnesota.
[1:27:29] Speaker 1: You said Minnesota and Warriors. He left them out. Yeah.
[1:27:33] Speaker 1: I wasn't going to that party.
[1:27:34] Speaker 4: You would have been a champion.
[1:27:39] Speaker 1: No way I was going to that. No way. No way. No,
[1:27:43] Speaker 1: it's the fact that you told me. You my dog.
[1:27:45] Speaker 1: He was going to start.
[1:27:47] Speaker 3: Look, we had a party. We in the middle of
[1:27:49] Speaker 3: the party talking about free agency. He like, Boog, I'm
[1:27:52] Speaker 3: pulling up, bro. I swear to God, I won't.
[1:27:55] Speaker 1: And you was giving me some work, too. Man, get
[1:27:57] Speaker 1: the fuck out of here. I'm like, hey, man. I
[1:28:00] Speaker 1: got these, too. I got them. This could be every
[1:28:03] Speaker 1: day in New Orleans. That's for real. Hey, dog. My dog.
[1:28:07] Speaker 1: My dog. Yeah, I'm coming down here. Uh-huh. We will
[1:28:13] Speaker 1: oblige Kenya to keep this thing moving.
[1:28:14] Speaker 4: I got the dumbest motherfucking friend on planet Earth.
[1:28:18] Speaker 1: Y'all brothers.
[1:28:18] Speaker 5: You're supposed to be a star.
[1:28:22] Speaker 1: You started over here. How you just burn on me
[1:28:26] Speaker 1: so bad? That's why people think your life is good. No, no, no. No, no, no. No.
[1:28:31] Speaker 1: You got a starter here. Starter. Here.
[1:28:34] Speaker 4: Minutes.
[1:28:35] Speaker 1: And then you going over here knowing you was going
[1:28:37] Speaker 1: to come off the bench.
[1:28:38] Speaker 5: And what were you saying? talking about, legacy, right? My
[1:28:41] Speaker 5: name is known as a champion. I would've went there
[1:28:45] Speaker 5: and been a voodoo.
[1:28:45] Speaker 1: NBA champion, Spike Lee Fittings. Only he's that champion. I'm
[1:28:50] Speaker 1: a champion. When I talk about Nick Young, it's not
[1:28:54] Speaker 1: a champion. He didn't win a champion with the Warriors,
[1:28:57] Speaker 1: that's why. Your championship is equivalent to my championship. We
[1:29:03] Speaker 1: have NBA champions on this couch. Oh, you won with
[1:29:06] Speaker 1: the Lakers. My dog. We the same type champion.
[1:29:10] Speaker 4: No, no, no.
[1:29:10] Speaker 1: We the same type champion. Nah, yours was in a bubble.
[1:29:13] Speaker 1: Honorable mention. Yours was in a bubble. No bubble dishes.
[1:29:19] Speaker 1: I had a parade. I had my own bus. I
[1:29:22] Speaker 1: had my own bus. We the same type champion. I
[1:29:25] Speaker 1: had a bus with my picture on it and shit.

[1:32:10] Speaker 3: He was like, man, fuck that. Why was I on your, nah,

[1:32:16] Speaker 3: Why the fuck was I over there?
[1:32:17] Speaker 1: Oh, losing it. He said, why the fuck? Losing it.
[1:32:20] Speaker 1: I don't know why I was even over there. Listen,
[1:32:21] Speaker 1: he was off the key and shit. Losing it. Why
[1:32:23] Speaker 1: are you over there? Losing it. And I'm like, yo, hey, man. No. Man,
[1:32:29] Speaker 1: just trying to be like you, dog. Mr. Cemetery Larry.
[1:32:31] Speaker 1: They ain't got into it, I think. That sound about right.
[1:32:34] Speaker 1: I think, you know, yeah. That sound about right. You
[1:32:35] Speaker 1: know what? That's exactly what it was.
[1:32:37] Speaker 7: Throwing them damn elbows, man. Yeah, I didn't just have
[1:32:39] Speaker 7: to step in. Him and Oluwakande got into it, too.
[1:32:42] Speaker 7: I said, listen, I walked over there. Listen, stop, man.
[1:32:44] Speaker 1: I'm up.
[1:32:44] Speaker 4: Oluwakande turned towards me like. I said, no, I'm playing peacemaker.
[1:32:49] Speaker 1: Hard to believe. Listen, the next possession, they down a
[1:32:52] Speaker 1: chunk in them motherfuckers. That is. Yes, sir. Next possession, dog. Peacemaker? Yes.
[1:32:57] Speaker 1: I ain't never seen that. You wouldn't. You sure you didn't? Yes. No,
[1:33:01] Speaker 1: I wouldn't go.
[1:33:02] Speaker 4: No, no, no.
[1:33:02] Speaker 1: I'm not going. Who I'm jumping? Who am I going
[1:33:06] Speaker 1: to jump? That'll be some weak-ass shit. Somebody. I'm y'all
[1:33:12] Speaker 1: one-on-one and I come. Well, me? What I do? Shit,
[1:33:17] Speaker 1: I ain't doing nothing. Y'all don't clean them up. Jump up.
[1:33:22] Speaker 1: And then you can get yours on.
[1:33:24] Speaker 4: You jump people when you don't know how to fight.
[1:33:27] Speaker 1: You jump people when you don't know how to fight.
[1:33:29] Speaker 1: That's all they gonna see. Jump people when you don't
[1:33:31] Speaker 1: know how to fight.
[1:33:32] Speaker 7: When you scared of that one-on-one fade than when you
[1:33:33] Speaker 7: jump people.
[1:33:34] Speaker 1: No, no, no.
[1:33:35] Speaker 4: Or when you know your punches can't do nothing to
[1:33:37] Speaker 4: that human being.
[1:33:38] Speaker 1: Yeah, that's what I'm saying. No, I'm just not going
[1:33:39] Speaker 1: to let my homie look bad. You know, if he lose...
[1:33:41] Speaker 1: If he get dog walked... Yeah, yeah, yeah. If he
[1:33:46] Speaker 1: get in a fight... I'm going to sneak him and
[1:33:48] Speaker 1: try to pull him in the arm. Get off my man!
[1:33:52] Speaker 1: Get off my man! So breaking it up ain't helping
[1:33:54] Speaker 1: him neither? No, because he already kind of... If he
[1:33:56] Speaker 1: get dog walked and you go over there and break
[1:33:58] Speaker 1: it up, that ain't helping your friend either? Not really,
[1:34:00] Speaker 1: because it depends who.
[1:34:01] Speaker 4: Yeah, but if there's other people, they got opinions.
[1:34:10] Speaker 1: See, I look at you like an old-ass nigga. Hopefully
[1:34:13] Speaker 1: you don't turn around and hit me either. See, I'm
[1:34:16] Speaker 1: going to firmly believe you.
[1:34:17] Speaker 4: Listen, if somebody jump at me, listen, if y'all two
[1:34:20] Speaker 4: jump at me, he going to beg you to stop
[1:34:23] Speaker 4: because I'm going to... I'm going to choke the shit
[1:34:25] Speaker 4: out you, dog.
[1:34:26] Speaker 1: How you going to choke when you get hit? Effective strategy.
[1:34:28] Speaker 1: I'm going to grab you, dude. You like this. Both
[1:34:31] Speaker 1: hands like this. No, we're going to fall to the ground,
[1:34:33] Speaker 1: and I'm going to choke the life out you. Oh, yeah,
[1:34:35] Speaker 1: you dig? We're going to get to the ground. If
[1:34:37] Speaker 1: we on the ground, that's even worse. No, it ain't. Hey,
[1:34:39] Speaker 1: you're going to ask him to stop.
[1:34:40] Speaker 5: He's choking me like this with his head over here.
[1:34:42] Speaker 1: If it's only two of y'all, you're going to need
[1:34:44] Speaker 1: more than two. Hey, you're going to need more than two.
[1:34:48] Speaker 6: Hey, boy, you're going to need more than.
[1:34:50] Speaker 1: Two of them. There's only two of them. These niggas
[1:34:53] Speaker 1: on board. I believe them together. Welcome to Gills Arena, boy.
[1:34:56] Speaker 1: These niggas on board. Crazy.
[1:34:58] Speaker 2: A very average day. But we got three former Warriors
[1:35:01] Speaker 2: on the couch. Let's talk a little bit about the
[1:35:03] Speaker 2: current Warriors. So they found new life in the wake
[1:35:05] Speaker 2: of the Jimmy Butler trade. Reemerged as a threat in
[1:35:09] Speaker 2: the West. So on Sunday, Jimmy made his home debut
[1:35:10] Speaker 2: with the Warriors. as Klay returned to the Bay, yet
[1:35:14] Speaker 2: again with the Mavs squad that was five and one
[1:35:15] Speaker 2: in their last six games, putting a win over the
[1:35:18] Speaker 2: Warriors in that stretch. So before we show the highlights
[1:35:20] Speaker 2: from this weekend, we have to take it back to
[1:35:22] Speaker 2: the last time these two squads faced off back on
[1:35:24] Speaker 2: February 12th, a moment after the game. So after the
[1:35:28] Speaker 2: Mavs got the win, P.J. Washington was spotted in street clothes,
[1:35:30] Speaker 2: heading to the locker room, doing the night-night celebration.
[1:35:34] Speaker 1: You see it. You can't even do that shit. You
[1:35:36] Speaker 1: ain't play, nigga.
[1:35:38] Speaker 2: Which was probably more insulting to Steph and Draymond than
[1:35:41] Speaker 2: the rest of the crew. So naturally, Steph and Draymond
[1:35:42] Speaker 2: didn't like the disrespect. Got their get back. So let's
[1:35:46] Speaker 2: take a look at the highlights if we can. So
[1:35:48] Speaker 2: Dubs jumped out to an early lead.
[1:35:50] Speaker 1: Never looked back.
[1:35:51] Speaker 2: Chef Curry cooking the entire Mav squad. Steph finished the
[1:35:54] Speaker 2: game with 30.7 assists and 29 minutes of action. He
[1:35:57] Speaker 2: was 12 for 20 from the field, 3 for 8
[1:35:59] Speaker 2: from deep. Steph's 13th 30-point game this season. He now
[1:36:03] Speaker 2: holds the NBA record for most 30-point games in under
[1:36:05] Speaker 2: 30 minutes. having done so in 29 games in his career.
[1:36:09] Speaker 2: So Jimmy Butler had another strong game, 18 points on
[1:36:12] Speaker 2: five and nine, shooting along with five assists. Poginski had
[1:36:15] Speaker 2: a 17-13 rebound, and Draymond had 13 and six dimes.
[1:36:18] Speaker 1: Kyrie and P.J.
[1:36:19] Speaker 2: Washington both had 17 points for the Mavs. Klay finished
[1:36:22] Speaker 2: the game with 11. Steph doing his thing in the
[1:36:26] Speaker 2: third quarter. Here's a moment right here. Hit one in P.J.
[1:36:29] Speaker 1: Washington's grill. And then proceeded.
[1:36:32] Speaker 4: Let's take a look, another one, just so he knows
[1:36:34] Speaker 4: what time it is.
[1:36:36] Speaker 2: Right in his grill. Hit them with the night-night in
[1:36:38] Speaker 2: the third quarter. Ladies and gentlemen, the third quarter. Yeah,
[1:36:43] Speaker 2: fuck yeah, boy. And then end of the game, obviously
[1:36:46] Speaker 2: Warriors up big. Draymond hit the entire map with the
[1:36:51] Speaker 2: extended night-night celebration just to make sure they see it.
[1:36:54] Speaker 1: Still going. Still going. Warriors have won five of their
[1:36:57] Speaker 1: last six games, 30-27 this season, just a game and
[1:37:00] Speaker 1: a half behind the Clippers.
[1:37:07] Speaker 2: For the sixth spot in the West. A lot has
[1:37:08] Speaker 2: changed since that Jimmy Butler trade. Is the Warriors' success
[1:37:11] Speaker 2: since the Jimmy Butler trade a blip or a trend?
[1:37:14] Speaker 4: Boogie, we'll start with you. I think they got better, obviously.
[1:37:19] Speaker 3: I think they got a new look to their offense with,
[1:37:21] Speaker 3: you know, Jimmy. It gives them a little, it gives
[1:37:24] Speaker 3: them half-court offense now. They're really tough defensively. Any defensive
[1:37:30] Speaker 3: team is going to be tough. They're going to always
[1:37:31] Speaker 3: give you problems in the playoffs, things of that nature, so.
[1:37:35] Speaker 3: They definitely got better. Can I say they're the clear-cut
[1:37:38] Speaker 3: favorite in the West?
[1:37:39] Speaker 1: Oh, no, not by any stretch of man.
[1:37:41] Speaker 4: Nah.
[1:37:41] Speaker 1: But if I'm.
[1:37:44] Speaker 3: One seed, two seed, I'm scared as shit if I
[1:37:46] Speaker 3: got to face them first round.
[1:37:49] Speaker 1: So they can definitely fuck up some seasons. Would you
[1:37:52] Speaker 1: be surprised if they went all the way?
[1:37:54] Speaker 4: No.
[1:37:55] Speaker 1: Like that 2021 team? No, I wouldn't be surprised. Because
[1:37:58] Speaker 1: all it takes is 30 to get hot.
[1:38:00] Speaker 2: Yeah.
[1:38:00] Speaker 3: 30 get hottest.
[1:38:02] Speaker 1: And we said that early.
[1:38:04] Speaker 7: I'm saying when they got off to a good start
[1:38:07] Speaker 7: early in the season.
[1:38:08] Speaker 1: They were 12-3.
[1:38:09] Speaker 3: Their best teams are when they're really good defensively.
[1:38:12] Speaker 1: And this is one of those teams. Jordan Poole, Klay Thompson.
[1:38:16] Speaker 1: Stop it. What about it? They helped him. I'm not
[1:38:19] Speaker 1: saying they didn't. Their best teams are when they're really
[1:38:23] Speaker 1: good defensively. I'm saying they don't have those two guys now.
[1:38:26] Speaker 1: Those two guys were detrimental. This is a different team.
[1:38:29] Speaker 1: So they don't have.
[1:38:30] Speaker 6: They don't have anything close to that team to be
[1:38:32] Speaker 6: able to take it all the way down.
[1:38:34] Speaker 4: That don't got nothing to do with now, though. Yeah,
[1:38:36] Speaker 4: that's what I'm saying. That's a whole other season. That's
[1:38:39] Speaker 4: a whole different style of play. You had a guy
[1:38:41] Speaker 4: like Jimmy Butler. I'm talking about talent.
[1:38:43] Speaker 1: They got talent. That talent don't match. Jimmy Butler don't
[1:38:46] Speaker 1: match those two guys. But Jimmy never really had talent. What?
[1:38:49] Speaker 1: Jimmy Butler don't match Jordan Poole. He just took Miami
[1:38:51] Speaker 1: to two conference finals. What are we talking about? In
[1:38:54] Speaker 1: the East, bro. I don't give a fuck. You sure?
[1:38:56] Speaker 6: Because he's over here now for a reason.
[1:38:59] Speaker 1: With more people.
[1:39:00] Speaker 6: He would still be in Miami if it made sense.
[1:39:02] Speaker 1: With better people.
[1:39:03] Speaker 6: No, if it made sense, I would still be there
[1:39:05] Speaker 6: taking them where I'm supposed to go.
[1:39:06] Speaker 1: And I would go over the top. We talking about
[1:39:08] Speaker 1: Jimmy Butler. Yeah. He's now where he's supposed to be.
[1:39:12] Speaker 1: Role player.
[1:39:14] Speaker 3: Jimmy Butler's not a sidekick to Steph Curry. He's no
[1:39:17] Speaker 3: longer Batman. Like, is this making sense?
[1:39:20] Speaker 1: Who is he a sidekick to? Huh? Jimmy Butler's not
[1:39:22] Speaker 1: a sidekick? I said he is now. He is.
[1:39:25] Speaker 4: So he was doing what he was doing as Batman.
[1:39:27] Speaker 4: He would have been a sidekick in Miami. And he's
[1:39:28] Speaker 4: now a sidekick in Steph Curry.
[1:39:29] Speaker 1: There was nobody there. There was nobody there in Miami
[1:39:31] Speaker 1: when he got there. But what I'm saying is Batman.
[1:39:34] Speaker 4: He was Batman in Miami and took him to a
[1:39:36] Speaker 4: conference by default.
[1:39:39] Speaker 1: By default. He didn't want to be there. He's now Robin.
[1:39:42] Speaker 1: He's in his fight for position. This is where he
[1:39:45] Speaker 1: wants to be. He wants to be here. He's not Batman.
[1:39:48] Speaker 1: He was Batman. He was Blankman. He was Blankman in Miami.
[1:39:51] Speaker 1: All right, all right, all right. Don't Blank Man slander.
[1:39:56] Speaker 1: He was Blank Man in Miami. Now he can be...
[1:39:59] Speaker 1: He was Robert Harris. He's still a superhero, bro. He
[1:40:04] Speaker 1: just don't like the way... Blank Man ain't no fucking superhero, bro.
[1:40:07] Speaker 1: He was Robert Harris. You show up when you want to. No,
[1:40:11] Speaker 1: you're not. It's all good.
[1:40:12] Speaker 5: He was Meteor Man.
[1:40:14] Speaker 1: He was Meteor Man. Blank Man was self-proclaimed, brother. Who
[1:40:17] Speaker 1: was the other guy then? Who was the other guy?
[1:40:21] Speaker 1: Sam was the other guy. He was saying, if he
[1:40:23] Speaker 1: was Batman... And Bam was, was it Robin? Yeah. Right?
[1:40:30] Speaker 1: And he goes over here.
[1:40:32] Speaker 4: Steph Curry's Batman. Now Jimmy Butler's the Robin.
[1:40:36] Speaker 1: But he got to play against him.
[1:40:38] Speaker 4: What I mean, he's like an old Batman is now
[1:40:41] Speaker 4: a Robin now.
[1:40:44] Speaker 1: That's a big difference. That's a big difference.
[1:40:46] Speaker 4: Because you got someone, if Batman goes down, you have
[1:40:50] Speaker 4: someone who can be Batman.
[1:40:51] Speaker 1: You have someone who's going to give up on your team. No,
[1:40:53] Speaker 1: he gave up on them. What are we talking about?
[1:40:55] Speaker 1: He being a young boss. Who he give up on?
[1:40:58] Speaker 1: How he give up on them? He used to be
[1:41:00] Speaker 1: a Heat fan. He used to be a Heat fan.
[1:41:02] Speaker 1: He used to be a Heat fan. You got to
[1:41:03] Speaker 1: forgive him. Confidence coffee.
[1:41:04] Speaker 6: I watched him. I watched Jimmy Butler give up.
[1:41:07] Speaker 1: Oh, wait a minute. Wait. Whoa. We didn't even put
[1:41:11] Speaker 1: the two together. What's up? He did the Rashawn McCants.
[1:41:16] Speaker 4: Jimmy Butler did the Rashawn McCants. When you gave up
[1:41:18] Speaker 4: on Miami, he did too.
[1:41:21] Speaker 1: Ooh. That's deep. I just thought about it. He was
[1:41:24] Speaker 1: waiting on that?
[1:41:24] Speaker 4: No, I just thought about it.
[1:41:27] Speaker 1: You cooking, bro. You cooking. When you... You cooking, bro.
[1:41:32] Speaker 1: He quit on the same shit. Okay. You jump shit.
[1:41:35] Speaker 1: I be jump shit. You did leave the heat in
[1:41:37] Speaker 1: for agency to go to... And he left to come to...
[1:41:39] Speaker 1: What was that before? Heat. Where were you before the heat?
[1:41:43] Speaker 1: You answer it. No, you tell me. You know where
[1:41:45] Speaker 1: I was. Before the heat? Yes. Before the heat, I
[1:41:48] Speaker 1: was with the Celtics. No, you wasn't. That was the
[1:41:51] Speaker 1: same season. I was with the Celtics. It was the
[1:41:53] Speaker 1: same season. And I chose Miami. It was the same season.
[1:41:55] Speaker 1: And then you went back to Boston? And I went
[1:41:57] Speaker 1: back to Boston. And now you have shifted to New York.
[1:41:59] Speaker 1: New York. Okay. I know what I'm doing. I know
[1:42:02] Speaker 1: what I'm doing. So he jumped ship just like Jimmy did.
[1:42:04] Speaker 6: I jumped ship because Jimmy showed up in the emo
[1:42:06] Speaker 6: shit with his nails painted and a motherfucking wig or
[1:42:08] Speaker 6: some shit. I said, I'm not, this not the type
[1:42:10] Speaker 6: of dude I'm about to bet on for you niggas
[1:42:12] Speaker 6: to come here and motherfucking crush me every fucking week
[1:42:16] Speaker 6: and I got to live with Jimmy Butler playing 70,
[1:42:18] Speaker 6: 70 games.
[1:42:19] Speaker 1: Come on, man. Fuck all that. His shit was lame
[1:42:22] Speaker 1: to the side. Yeah, I'm cool. Emo was lame to
[1:42:24] Speaker 1: the side. I'm cool, man. Nah, nah, nah, nah. Confidence, confidence.
[1:42:28] Speaker 1: It was last year. It was last year. It was
[1:42:30] Speaker 1: last year. Emo was last year. The Bucks was last year.
[1:42:33] Speaker 1: That shit was sick. Come on, man. I thought it
[1:42:36] Speaker 1: was fake. That was crazy.
[1:42:39] Speaker 2: We asked the chat. We said the Warriors' recent success
[1:42:41] Speaker 2: is either for real or fugazi. 64% say for real.
[1:42:45] Speaker 2: So they think that this squad.
[1:42:47] Speaker 4: Like you said, first or second seed, you don't want
[1:42:49] Speaker 4: to see these Warriors.
[1:42:50] Speaker 1: They're really good defense.
[1:42:51] Speaker 5: How can y'all say that, but the Lakers is out
[1:42:53] Speaker 5: first round?
[1:42:54] Speaker 1: Because they don't have no defense, man. So you're saying,
[1:42:58] Speaker 1: who's going to.
[1:43:00] Speaker 5: Guard Joker on that team?
[1:43:01] Speaker 1: You're saying, who's going to guard Joker on that team?
[1:43:04] Speaker 1: Who's going to guard Joker on the Warriors? Well, Draymond
[1:43:07] Speaker 1: has a better chance than anybody. Man, Draymond's my height.
[1:43:10] Speaker 1: Your height. I can't even guard Joker. Come on, man.
[1:43:13] Speaker 1: He's been guarding nobody, though. That don't mean shit. Why
[1:43:16] Speaker 1: you got to throw me in it? Because you threw
[1:43:17] Speaker 1: yourself in it. Now you acting like him. What the
[1:43:18] Speaker 1: fuck you mean? Now you acting like him. Now you
[1:43:20] Speaker 1: acting like him. See, that's why. My bad, my bad. No,
[1:43:22] Speaker 1: we don't have to have a conversation. I told you
[1:43:25] Speaker 1: we don't have to have a conversation.
[1:43:26] Speaker 4: This is the type of people that.
[1:43:29] Speaker 1: Like to hang with me. That's the problem. Come on
[1:43:32] Speaker 1: over here. We cool. This says a lot about me.
[1:43:34] Speaker 5: I got crazy people that like to hang with me.
[1:43:36] Speaker 1: Come on, we just chill, man. We don't have no
[1:43:40] Speaker 1: hating shit over here. Just keep it real over here.
[1:43:42] Speaker 1: You ain't got to worry about none of that. But no,
[1:43:44] Speaker 1: how can that hurt? You think the Warriors are better
[1:43:47] Speaker 1: than the Lakers? Yes. Defensively. They are a really good team.
[1:43:49] Speaker 1: When did all this defense shit start being the number
[1:43:52] Speaker 1: one thing, man? Stop, man.
[1:43:55] Speaker 5: All right, that's why the Raiders down.
[1:43:58] Speaker 1: That's why the Raiders is down. Niggas come to see defense.
[1:44:00] Speaker 5: Niggas want to come to see people pick.
[1:44:02] Speaker 1: Up nine and four feet.
[1:44:03] Speaker 2: That's why the Raiders down.
[1:44:04] Speaker 1: The niggas down.
[1:44:05] Speaker 5: They're not playing hard. They're not picking up 94 feet.
[1:44:08] Speaker 5: Niggas don't want to see that shit in.
[1:44:09] Speaker 1: The All-Star game. What the fuck, man?
[1:44:12] Speaker 5: I came to see a nigga picking them up from
[1:44:14] Speaker 5: full court to full court.
[1:44:15] Speaker 1: But go get fucking Ben Wallace to get them out
[1:44:17] Speaker 1: there and goddamn subscribe. Who did I say did? Who
[1:44:19] Speaker 1: did I say did? You're going to find niggas at
[1:44:21] Speaker 1: 24 that dive on flows and shit like that. Who
[1:44:24] Speaker 1: did it? Who did it? Who did it? Who did it? Goddamn.
[1:44:27] Speaker 1: Who did it? I don't know. Isaac Hayes. Motherfucking shit.
[1:44:30] Speaker 1: Kobe Bryant. Bootsie Collins. It was Kobe Bryant. It was
[1:44:32] Speaker 1: Kobe Bryant. It was out there. It was Kobe Bryant.
[1:44:35] Speaker 1: One time. It was your favorite Laker, right? Oh, my Lord.
[1:44:40] Speaker 1: Stop that, man. It was Kobe Bryant. He did it
[1:44:44] Speaker 1: one time. No, it wasn't one time, bro. He did
[1:44:47] Speaker 1: it all night. You didn't watch the Michael? He was
[1:44:51] Speaker 1: laughing with Michael. Don't make me do it. He was
[1:44:54] Speaker 1: laughing with Michael. Jump in there. He was laughing with Michael.
[1:44:58] Speaker 5: Get that shit out of here.
[1:45:01] Speaker 4: I guess now the game is not close enough at
[1:45:05] Speaker 4: the end where they get to go hard like previous.
[1:45:09] Speaker 1: That's it. It's such a big gap. It's such a
[1:45:11] Speaker 1: big gap. What are we doing? Down 40. We ain't
[1:45:15] Speaker 1: got no chance. You know, I'm going to.
[1:45:17] Speaker 4: Tell you what makes it look bad. When you sit
[1:45:19] Speaker 4: there and think about it, it'd be them half-court shots.
[1:45:21] Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah. It'd be the half court.
[1:45:24] Speaker 4: Everybody's sitting there doing this, laying on the floor.
[1:45:27] Speaker 1: Joker running side to side like this.
[1:45:29] Speaker 5: Joker running like this down the court.
[1:45:33] Speaker 1: That's the shit.
[1:45:34] Speaker 5: You see Joker doing this shit side to side.
[1:45:37] Speaker 1: You gotta go shoot one now. You make it now.
[1:45:40] Speaker 1: Joker be running like this. Go shoot one and make one.
[1:45:45] Speaker 1: Go shoot one and just.
[1:45:48] Speaker 7: That's the domino effect of motherfuckers shooting 42-footers, right?
[1:45:55] Speaker 1: I was going to say, maybe just knock off the
[1:45:57] Speaker 1: three then. No three-pointers?
[1:45:59] Speaker 4: No, just like back in the 60s, what ends up.
[1:46:03] Speaker 1: Happening is they scored more. Oh, no threes? No threes.
[1:46:07] Speaker 1: We want a game full of layups? No, it's just
[1:46:10] Speaker 1: you're not settling for the three. You're not throwing a
[1:46:12] Speaker 1: bunch of... Because that's what I said, when you think
[1:46:14] Speaker 1: about it... If they ain't settling for threes, they're going
[1:46:16] Speaker 1: to settle for twos. But threes are more than twos.
[1:46:19] Speaker 1: Long twos at that. Very long twos.
[1:46:22] Speaker 4: Maybe.
[1:46:22] Speaker 1: I'm still going to pull up from far. If I'm open...
[1:46:25] Speaker 1: But then it's more of a bad shot. No, it's not.
[1:46:27] Speaker 1: This is going to be a long-ass two. The reason
[1:46:30] Speaker 1: you shoot the three is because three is more than two.
[1:46:32] Speaker 1: That's fine. That's the reason. If you're shooting a.
[1:46:35] Speaker 6: Long two instead of getting a layup, get your ass
[1:46:37] Speaker 6: out of the game.
[1:46:38] Speaker 1: You're out of here.
[1:46:39] Speaker 4: As a player in an all-star game, if I'm guarding
[1:46:41] Speaker 4: a guy that can only shoot a two, I'm going
[1:46:42] Speaker 4: to just back up and.
[1:46:43] Speaker 1: Make him shoot a long-ass two.
[1:46:45] Speaker 4: Yeah.
[1:46:45] Speaker 1: What's the fucking difference? Well, he's not going to take
[1:46:48] Speaker 1: that shot. Yes, he is. He's not. Because it's not
[1:46:50] Speaker 1: a three. It's not a three. They should have a
[1:46:52] Speaker 1: imaginary line, and it pops in and pops out. From
[1:46:55] Speaker 1: a long two. They should have a three-pointer. If we're
[1:46:58] Speaker 1: talking about somebody you guard, right?
[1:47:00] Speaker 6: If you was guarding a big that's standing way out,
[1:47:03] Speaker 6: he's not going to take that.
[1:47:04] Speaker 1: Two, that long two. Why Carl Anthony Towns not? Because
[1:47:08] Speaker 1: he's not. He's gonna shoot that bitch. He's shooting that shit.
[1:47:11] Speaker 1: He's gonna drive that motherfucker. No, the fuck he's not.
[1:47:13] Speaker 1: It's just gonna count as a long two. He's gonna say,
[1:47:15] Speaker 1: I thought it was a two. No. I thought it
[1:47:18] Speaker 1: was a three. My bad. I thought it was a three.
[1:47:22] Speaker 1: I thought it was a three. It's a two. My bad, coach.
[1:47:30] Speaker 1: I thought it was a three. I'm done. I'm done.
[1:47:35] Speaker 4: I'm done.
[1:47:36] Speaker 1: Ladies and gentlemen, Nick, that's my guy, man. I pulled
[1:47:40] Speaker 1: the tail, though. I pulled the tail. That is my guy.
[1:47:43] Speaker 4: Ladies and gentlemen, as you probably noticed, we have not
[1:47:47] Speaker 4: been in the arena for a while, so it's a
[1:47:49] Speaker 4: little bit more charged.
[1:47:50] Speaker 1: Up than usual today. My guy, bro.
[1:47:54] Speaker 4: I know his hands. As an all-star, you made it.
[1:47:57] Speaker 4: What would have made you play harder? What if they
[1:48:03] Speaker 4: had the.
[1:48:03] Speaker 1: I'm going to be honest.
[1:48:05] Speaker 3: I'm going to be honest. My view of All-Star, I
[1:48:09] Speaker 3: never understood it. It's like this. It's considered an All-Star break.
[1:48:12] Speaker 3: It's supposed to be a break for the players in
[1:48:14] Speaker 3: the league. I never understood it to the point where
[1:48:17] Speaker 3: if you're one of the best players in the league.
[1:48:20] Speaker 1: you don't get a break at all.
[1:48:21] Speaker 4: So for me, it's just like, I get it.
[1:48:26] Speaker 3: If I'm an all-star, I'm one of the main guys
[1:48:28] Speaker 3: on my team. I'm playing 40 minutes a night. I
[1:48:31] Speaker 3: come into the weekend, they work the shit out of it.
[1:48:33] Speaker 3: This is the behind the scenes. They work the shit
[1:48:36] Speaker 3: out you behind the scenes.
[1:48:37] Speaker 1: You got 20 events before the game.
[1:48:39] Speaker 4: You doing all this shit. Boom, we get to the game.
[1:48:42] Speaker 4: Now y'all expecting me to go out. He got 94 feet.
[1:48:45] Speaker 7: Guard 94 feet. So I'm going to tell you what
[1:48:48] Speaker 7: it is, right? What is it? So humor me here, right? All-Star,
[1:48:55] Speaker 7: whatever city he's in, It's a circus tent, right? The
[1:49:00] Speaker 7: owners come watch my product. It's this fucking circus. Y'all
[1:49:05] Speaker 7: go out here and dance with the goddamn people.
[1:49:08] Speaker 1: I mean, yeah. Don't dance too much, motherfucker. Don't dance
[1:49:11] Speaker 1: too much, motherfucker. But, hey, I want you to dance now.
[1:49:15] Speaker 1: But not too hard. Not too hard. But now that
[1:49:18] Speaker 1: you put it that way, I'm like, oh, damn, it's
[1:49:19] Speaker 1: a big-ass circus, right? It is. No, it's not a circus.
[1:49:22] Speaker 1: It's a big-ass circus. The circus is in town, right?
[1:49:26] Speaker 1: So who is the biggest act? Absolutely. But that's why.
[1:49:30] Speaker 4: But I think that's the issue.
[1:49:32] Speaker 3: It's like, on one side, you're trying to push this product,
[1:49:36] Speaker 3: but at the same time... As the product, you're trying
[1:49:39] Speaker 3: to reserve yourself for the rest of.
[1:49:40] Speaker 1: The fucking season. So we could be a good product.
[1:49:43] Speaker 1: It's no different than vacation.
[1:49:45] Speaker 4: You go out on a vacation, you work all year,
[1:49:47] Speaker 4: you go on a vacation. When you leave that vacation, motherfucker,
[1:49:50] Speaker 4: you tired. So what's the fucking difference?
[1:49:52] Speaker 1: I done went to All-Star. I'm fucking exhausted from the weekend.
[1:49:56] Speaker 3: I'm going right back into the 82-game season.
[1:49:59] Speaker 2: So, Boogie, do you respect maybe an older player who
[1:50:01] Speaker 2: has the foresight to say, you know what, I'm not
[1:50:02] Speaker 2: going to play in the All-Star game. I'm going to
[1:50:03] Speaker 2: concentrate trying to make this championship.
[1:50:05] Speaker 4: I can't sit here and say I respect it because
[1:50:06] Speaker 4: it's a responsibility that comes with all this.
[1:50:09] Speaker 1: But I done did it about 20 times. That didn't
[1:50:10] Speaker 1: go the way he wanted. That didn't go the way
[1:50:12] Speaker 1: he wanted.
[1:50:12] Speaker 4: No, no, no.
[1:50:13] Speaker 1: I know. I know. I know we're trying to defend
[1:50:15] Speaker 1: what LeBron did.
[1:50:16] Speaker 4: No, no, no.
[1:50:16] Speaker 1: But I still try. But I still try.
[1:50:19] Speaker 4: But I get to cancel this shit. I get both
[1:50:21] Speaker 4: sides of it. If I'm LeBron, motherfucker, I've been doing.
[1:50:24] Speaker 1: This for 21 years. I'm still the face of the NBA.
[1:50:27] Speaker 3: If I want a fucking break on All-Star weekend, I
[1:50:30] Speaker 3: deserve a fucking break.
[1:50:31] Speaker 1: I came back over.
[1:50:34] Speaker 4: They should cancel the game.
[1:50:37] Speaker 1: What's the responsibility? No, no, here's the responsibility, too. If
[1:50:40] Speaker 1: you're the NBA... and Bron would.
[1:50:42] Speaker 4: Have said he wasn't playing Saturday, would you have been
[1:50:45] Speaker 4: happy with him doing.
[1:50:46] Speaker 1: That as the NBA?
[1:50:47] Speaker 4: No.
[1:50:48] Speaker 1: You the NBA. I think they coordinated it the right way.
[1:50:52] Speaker 1: I think that was planned by Bron. That's what I said. Remember,
[1:50:55] Speaker 1: I told you Saturday. You don't want to play. Let's
[1:50:57] Speaker 1: not announce it early.
[1:50:58] Speaker 3: Let's announce it right before so it doesn't look like something.
[1:51:01] Speaker 4: That was planned. Since this is a circus... Let's get
[1:51:04] Speaker 4: other clowns out there.
[1:51:06] Speaker 1: Let's get other clowns. Get a young clown in here.
[1:51:08] Speaker 1: Let's get some other clowns. Let's have the people. Both
[1:51:11] Speaker 1: teams are the best. The main tiger we came to see,
[1:51:13] Speaker 1: he ain't growling tonight. Let's get the best players a break.
[1:51:16] Speaker 1: He ain't coming out tonight.
[1:51:20] Speaker 4: Did you ever play any of them going out there thinking,
[1:51:22] Speaker 4: I'm going to play this one hard?
[1:51:24] Speaker 1: I'm going to be honest. I'm going to be honest.
[1:51:26] Speaker 1: My first two. Mm-hmm.
[1:51:29] Speaker 4: In my head, it's politics behind that.
[1:51:33] Speaker 3: Even when it comes to the minutes and shit. So
[1:51:35] Speaker 3: in my head, I'm like, man, I get out here,
[1:51:37] Speaker 3: I'm going to go hard. I'm going to try to
[1:51:38] Speaker 3: go get me a fucking MVP until I realize it's
[1:51:40] Speaker 3: a sheet with everybody's time on that motherfucker. And DeMarcus,
[1:51:44] Speaker 3: you're going to play about 11.
[1:51:46] Speaker 1: Minutes in this All-Star game. So, yeah, in my mind,
[1:51:50] Speaker 1: I'm going full throttle. But once I realized, I'm like, oh, shit.
[1:51:54] Speaker 4: Once you realize you're not playing, you're not going hard.
[1:51:59] Speaker 1: Hey, I didn't know how long it was going to be.
[1:52:02] Speaker 1: But in those 11, I went hard. So my second
[1:52:03] Speaker 1: time around, it's the same thing. I'm like, all right,
[1:52:05] Speaker 1: I might.
[1:52:07] Speaker 3: My second time, I'm like, all right, I got my
[1:52:09] Speaker 3: name a little bigger than this.
[1:52:11] Speaker 1: I might get about 20 minutes. Next year, it was
[1:52:14] Speaker 1: about 15. Damn. Right? Yeah.
[1:52:17] Speaker 4: So I don't think the only people that really get
[1:52:19] Speaker 4: an opportunity to go out there and play hard are
[1:52:21] Speaker 4: the starters, the guys that get voted.
[1:52:23] Speaker 1: And it makes sense. Those are the guys the fans
[1:52:25] Speaker 1: voted in. That's who they want to see the most.
[1:52:28] Speaker 7: And I tried to go with that logic with the
[1:52:30] Speaker 7: betting shit, the little thing we did, the draft. I
[1:52:33] Speaker 7: tried to go with the young guys thinking it's their
[1:52:34] Speaker 7: third time. Them motherfuckers going to come out, play hard,
[1:52:37] Speaker 7: be energetic. Them motherfuckers, them young punks didn't do nothing.
[1:52:42] Speaker 1: They sat back and was watching. My first one, I'm
[1:52:46] Speaker 1: thinking it's going to be multiple, but I asked J.K.
[1:52:49] Speaker 7: And he told me just go out and be you, right?
[1:52:51] Speaker 7: I had my point guard there, so it made it
[1:52:53] Speaker 7: easier for me, but... I just went out there, I
[1:52:55] Speaker 7: was just running around, just having motherfucking fun. It was like,
[1:52:58] Speaker 7: I know they were looking at me like, calm down,
[1:53:00] Speaker 7: young whippersnapper, but hey. We got to give credit to,
[1:53:04] Speaker 7: you know, Wimby, we give you credit, dog, because we've
[1:53:07] Speaker 7: seen you out there going hard. We've seen you even
[1:53:10] Speaker 7: ask these motherfuckers.
[1:53:11] Speaker 1: You're going hard, right? We're going. Everybody going hard, right?
[1:53:15] Speaker 1: Hell yeah, we are. They didn't. Lay up. Lay up.
[1:53:20] Speaker 1: He was mad as hell.
[1:53:22] Speaker 4: We've seen you going hard, but as you can see,
[1:53:26] Speaker 4: going hard takes.
[1:53:27] Speaker 1: All ten motherfucking players out there. And the referees. Yeah.
[1:53:32] Speaker 1: Because they don't want to call foul. Yeah, they don't.
[1:53:36] Speaker 4: So because they don't want to call foul, I'm not
[1:53:38] Speaker 4: going to go and make a lip and these two
[1:53:40] Speaker 4: motherfuckers down there clotheslining today.
[1:53:42] Speaker 1: Okay? Right? Can you like, they ain't doing no fouls?
[1:53:46] Speaker 1: Come on in here. Y'all. Y'all. Bitch, I'm not playing hard.
[1:53:50] Speaker 1: You know what I'm saying? Pull up 37.
[1:53:53] Speaker 4: Yeah, people don't understand it. They're not calling fouls in
[1:53:57] Speaker 4: this game. Which means I'm not fucking driving if somebody
[1:54:00] Speaker 4: decide they.
[1:54:01] Speaker 1: Want to play real defense.
[1:54:02] Speaker 5: But if somebody got the mindset to hit you in
[1:54:04] Speaker 5: your head in an all-star game, that's crazy.
[1:54:06] Speaker 4: Like KD got, that was a foul foul.
[1:54:08] Speaker 1: Yeah.
[1:54:10] Speaker 4: They realized you didn't call it, so they tried it again,
[1:54:13] Speaker 4: then got mad you called it. Like, those are the
[1:54:16] Speaker 4: things that's going on. You're not even repping it like
[1:54:18] Speaker 4: it's a real game for me to be playing it
[1:54:20] Speaker 4: like it's a real game.
[1:54:21] Speaker 2: Well, Gil, speaking of Wimby, we got to talk about
[1:54:24] Speaker 2: him for a little bit. Spurs got some bad news
[1:54:25] Speaker 2: last week after it was announced that Defensive Player of
[1:54:27] Speaker 2: the Year frontrunner Victor Mwinyama expected to miss the rest
[1:54:30] Speaker 2: of the season with a deep, vain blood clot in
[1:54:34] Speaker 2: his right shoulder called thrombosis for the square terminology. Good news,
[1:54:38] Speaker 2: Spurs believe this is an isolated condition, and Wamba Wamba,
[1:54:41] Speaker 2: as he's known on this show, should make a full
[1:54:42] Speaker 2: recovery in time for the start of next season. So
[1:54:45] Speaker 2: Pistons forward to Sword Thompson had a similar injury last season.
[1:54:48] Speaker 2: Brandon Ingram had one in 2019. They both missed the
[1:54:51] Speaker 2: rest of those seasons, came back, and we're good to
[1:54:52] Speaker 2: go after that. After winning Rookie of the Year, becoming
[1:54:54] Speaker 2: the first rookie to be a first-team all-defensive selection last season,
[1:54:58] Speaker 2: Wamba Wamba was doing work in his sophomore campaign, making
[1:55:01] Speaker 2: his first All-Star game, looking to become the youngest player
[1:55:03] Speaker 2: in the league here to win Defensive Player of the Year. So,
[1:55:05] Speaker 2: Wimby finishes his season averaging 24 points, 11 rebounds, four assists, league-leading,
[1:55:11] Speaker 2: 3.8 blocks. We're going to say four. With 48, 35,
[1:55:15] Speaker 2: 84 shooting splits. So, Big, I'm going to ask you first.
[1:55:17] Speaker 2: What's your reaction to Wimby suffering a season-ending blood clot?
[1:55:20] Speaker 1: Sucks. It's unfortunate.
[1:55:24] Speaker 3: You know, it's kind of scary in general, kind of,
[1:55:26] Speaker 3: you know, what's going on with the Spurs, even with Pop.
[1:55:28] Speaker 3: You know, it's a lot of health concerns over there. So,
[1:55:32] Speaker 3: you know, hopefully all that gets, you know, under control
[1:55:34] Speaker 3: is fine. It's a team that's got a really, really
[1:55:36] Speaker 3: bright future. I would love to be able to see
[1:55:39] Speaker 3: Pop continue coaching as well and lead that.
[1:55:41] Speaker 1: Team to success.
[1:55:45] Speaker 3: It's not necessarily a bad thing that he's getting shut
[1:55:47] Speaker 3: down this late in the season.
[1:55:48] Speaker 1: It puts them in a position to get a Cooper
[1:55:50] Speaker 1: flag or H. Bailey. So you only add to that
[1:55:53] Speaker 1: core they already got.
[1:55:54] Speaker 2: So they got two first-round picks. They got their own pick,
[1:55:56] Speaker 2: and they got the Hawks unprotected.
[1:55:57] Speaker 3: So, yeah, it's not necessarily– in a way, it could
[1:56:00] Speaker 3: be a blessing in disguise because it gives them time
[1:56:02] Speaker 3: to cook up, you know, continue to build their young
[1:56:05] Speaker 3: squad up, give everybody time to get healthy. You know,
[1:56:09] Speaker 3: De'Aaron Fox still continues to get his feet wet over
[1:56:11] Speaker 3: there with a new organization. So you come in next
[1:56:13] Speaker 3: year with, you know, high expectations.
[1:56:18] Speaker 2: Not the exact situation, but David Robinson got hurt. The
[1:56:20] Speaker 2: Spurs are able to draft Tim Duncan.
[1:56:22] Speaker 1: Exactly. We saw what happened there. So not the exact
[1:56:25] Speaker 1: same situation. Right? Similar, similar.
[1:56:30] Speaker 7: See, that's why they should have gave the boy his
[1:56:31] Speaker 7: goddamn award last year. He fucking with the game.
[1:56:35] Speaker 1: Win the Yama.
[1:56:36] Speaker 7: Yeah, they should have gave him his goddamn award last year.
[1:56:39] Speaker 1: That's a valid point. Right? That's bullshit.
[1:56:42] Speaker 7: Now he out this year, now he ineligible for his award.
[1:56:45] Speaker 1: That's valid. Get that, man? It was last place, though.
[1:56:51] Speaker 1: He was a better defensive player. He was still the
[1:56:52] Speaker 1: best defensive player in the league. Come on, man. It
[1:56:53] Speaker 1: wasn't even close. It wasn't even close. What does winning
[1:56:55] Speaker 1: have to do with you being a defensive player? A lot.
[1:56:58] Speaker 1: Defensive player of the year isn't a team award. Just
[1:57:00] Speaker 1: like assist is not a team award. Just like rebound
[1:57:02] Speaker 1: is not a team award. Scoring title is not a
[1:57:04] Speaker 1: team award. That's fucking lose. Everybody lose. You know what
[1:57:09] Speaker 1: I'm saying? So being a defensive player... Goddamn. We just
[1:57:12] Speaker 1: talked about.
[1:57:13] Speaker 6: So assist, so assist.
[1:57:15] Speaker 1: I mean, it's actually a little more impressive if you
[1:57:17] Speaker 1: think about it. Because if you.
[1:57:19] Speaker 3: A defensive guy, you willing to go out there and
[1:57:22] Speaker 3: show it every night on a losing team, that's even
[1:57:24] Speaker 3: more credit to you.
[1:57:24] Speaker 1: So if I get two blocks... It was more than that.
[1:57:27] Speaker 1: Or three blocks. It was more than that. Three blocks.
[1:57:29] Speaker 1: It was like 3.7.
[1:57:30] Speaker 3: If you're averaging three blocks a game, you're a generational talent.
[1:57:33] Speaker 3: Hell yeah, you deserve it.
[1:57:35] Speaker 4: If you go out there and average 12 rebounds, should
[1:57:38] Speaker 4: you win rebounding?
[1:57:39] Speaker 1: Hey, man. The rebounding of the year?
[1:57:41] Speaker 4: If you lead the league in steals on a bad team,
[1:57:44] Speaker 4: you shouldn't get that award?
[1:57:45] Speaker 1: You led the league in steals. Scoring title? I mean,
[1:57:49] Speaker 1: what is it? Somebody got to do it. Somebody got
[1:57:53] Speaker 1: to do what?
[1:57:53] Speaker 5: That's like saying if I score 30 and I lose
[1:57:56] Speaker 5: every night, I should be MVP?
[1:57:58] Speaker 1: No, you get scoring. If you leave the league, you
[1:58:00] Speaker 1: get scoring title.
[1:58:01] Speaker 5: If I score, I'm going to score 35 and win
[1:58:03] Speaker 5: and lose every night.
[1:58:04] Speaker 1: It's harder to score.
[1:58:05] Speaker 3: It's harder to average 30 on the losing team than
[1:58:07] Speaker 3: the winning team.
[1:58:08] Speaker 1: That's a great point.
[1:58:09] Speaker 4: Uh-oh.
[1:58:10] Speaker 1: Point. Uh-oh. So what makes the MVP? You're the scouting report.
[1:58:13] Speaker 4: You are the scouting report.
[1:58:14] Speaker 1: Thank you. I hate those scouting reports. I hate what
[1:58:16] Speaker 1: they say. They don't like giving the MVP to the winner.
[1:58:19] Speaker 1: What you saying, Boogie? Say that shit again. I hate.
[1:58:28] Speaker 3: I hate when people make that bullshit narrative of where
[1:58:31] Speaker 3: you're a top scoring guy because you're on a losing team.
[1:58:35] Speaker 4: That actually makes that shit way harder. If you're the
[1:58:38] Speaker 4: only guy teams are focused on on a nightly basis
[1:58:41] Speaker 4: and you still go out there and average 30, That's
[1:58:43] Speaker 4: harder to do than a guy that has a Steph
[1:58:46] Speaker 4: Curry or.
[1:58:47] Speaker 1: A Clay Thompson. Should he get the MVP? Huh? Should
[1:58:49] Speaker 1: he get the MVP? I'm not saying that. I'm asking you.
[1:58:50] Speaker 1: He said he's not saying that. I'm not saying that.
[1:58:53] Speaker 6: I just asked him a question.
[1:58:54] Speaker 1: I didn't see you saying it. I'm not saying it.
[1:58:55] Speaker 4: All I'm saying is that narrative around that, that's bullshit.
[1:59:00] Speaker 1: And that's not even a common thing.
[1:59:01] Speaker 4: We see guys average 30 on losing teams all the time.
[1:59:04] Speaker 1: That's not a common thing. No, it's not. Because it's
[1:59:07] Speaker 1: fucking hard to do. Nah, it ain't. When the fuck
[1:59:11] Speaker 1: did you do it?
[1:59:11] Speaker 5: Y'all ain't got a scouting report. Y'all ain't got a
[1:59:14] Speaker 5: fucking scouting report. Who going to scout the fucking losing team?
[1:59:17] Speaker 1: All right, so let me ask you a question. All right,
[1:59:18] Speaker 1: so when y'all would play me in Sacramento, who the
[1:59:20] Speaker 1: fuck was the scouting report? Nobody. They just knew we
[1:59:23] Speaker 1: was going to go out there and whoop y'all ass.
[1:59:25] Speaker 1: First of all, you probably weren't even paying attention to
[1:59:27] Speaker 1: the fucking film. Duh, who was? I don't even think
[1:59:30] Speaker 1: we had shoot-around when we played sack. It felt like
[1:59:32] Speaker 1: sack in town. Okay. See okay, look who we got Well,
[1:59:38] Speaker 1: we got it you got to stop the one person
[1:59:40] Speaker 1: Thomas Thomas Kenny Thomas? Kenny Thomas. No, on Brooklyn. Don't
[1:59:57] Speaker 1: he average like 30? No. Cam Thomas, yeah. Cam Thomas.
[1:59:59] Speaker 1: How much did he average? He was averaging like 27.
[2:00:00] Speaker 1: He's never averaged 30, bro. He averaged something. He did
[2:00:04] Speaker 1: average something. So did I. Like 27. 26, 27. He
[2:00:07] Speaker 1: averaged something, yeah. He played games. Everybody's guarding him. We're
[2:00:12] Speaker 1: going to score three motherfuckers on him. Same thing. I
[2:00:16] Speaker 1: hate that shit.
[2:00:17] Speaker 4: If we're going to score 30, I got to go
[2:00:19] Speaker 4: 1,000 miles an hour.
[2:00:20] Speaker 3: If this is a losing team and there's one guy
[2:00:22] Speaker 3: to focus on, we know this guy averages 30. There's
[2:00:24] Speaker 3: one guy to focus on. And you can't stop him?
[2:00:26] Speaker 3: You're sitting here saying that's.
[2:00:27] Speaker 1: Easy to do.
[2:00:28] Speaker 6: But what he's saying is 30 points on a bad team,
[2:00:31] Speaker 6: somebody got to get the majority of the points.
[2:00:34] Speaker 1: If you every night are getting majority... Your talent is
[2:00:37] Speaker 1: still going to speak for itself. This is what I'm saying.
[2:00:40] Speaker 6: If y'all are averaging 100 points a game, that team
[2:00:43] Speaker 6: you're on, you're the number one focus. You're the number
[2:00:46] Speaker 6: one guy. You're going to get.
[2:00:48] Speaker 1: 50%.
[2:00:49] Speaker 4: And if it was that simple, we would see guys
[2:00:52] Speaker 4: averaging 30 on losing teams all the time.
[2:00:54] Speaker 1: If they were good enough. That's the point I'm making.
[2:00:57] Speaker 4: You can still be a really, really good player on
[2:01:00] Speaker 4: a losing team. Or you can be on a losing
[2:01:03] Speaker 4: team and just be an average guy. Right. So why
[2:01:07] Speaker 4: does it make it to where you're.
[2:01:09] Speaker 3: Just a stat guy if you're on a losing team?
[2:01:11] Speaker 3: You're still a really good player.
[2:01:12] Speaker 1: Right. You can still tell the difference. You were saying
[2:01:15] Speaker 1: that it's harder. Yes. Absolutely. If we know that you're
[2:01:21] Speaker 1: going to get.
[2:01:22] Speaker 4: If there's one guy averaging 30 on the team compared
[2:01:24] Speaker 4: to a team that has.
[2:01:25] Speaker 5: Three guys averaging 20.
[2:01:26] Speaker 6: You can take all the shots you want to average.
[2:01:30] Speaker 6: You have nobody else.
[2:01:31] Speaker 1: You still got to score those points. So, So it's not.
[2:01:38] Speaker 1: So let's put it in a good team situation.
[2:01:42] Speaker 3: What's harder to guard? One guy averaging 30 or three
[2:01:47] Speaker 3: guys averaging 20?
[2:01:47] Speaker 5: What's harder to guard?
[2:01:51] Speaker 1: So what are we talking about? It's harder to guard
[2:01:54] Speaker 1: somebody that shoots any shot. Yeah, the three guys that
[2:01:56] Speaker 1: average 20. No. Because you can't scout for those three. Yes,
[2:01:59] Speaker 1: we can. No, you can't. It's easy to scout for
[2:02:02] Speaker 1: one person. So let's put it in a winning situation.
[2:02:04] Speaker 6: We can scout for the three guys.
[2:02:07] Speaker 1: I said what is harder to stop? The one person?
[2:02:12] Speaker 1: The one person? Yeah, for sure. What? The one guy
[2:02:17] Speaker 1: is easier to stop. So it was easy.
[2:02:19] Speaker 4: No.
[2:02:19] Speaker 1: Oh, yeah.
[2:02:20] Speaker 4: Okay.
[2:02:20] Speaker 1: Yeah. The one guy is easier to stop. Everybody.
[2:02:23] Speaker 6: So when you look at it in reverse, the one
[2:02:26] Speaker 6: guy that has to go against a whole team that's
[2:02:28] Speaker 6: scouting him, his job is harder compared to those three
[2:02:31] Speaker 6: guys that's going in. It might be easier for us
[2:02:33] Speaker 6: to stop him, but you're saying that it's harder to
[2:02:36] Speaker 6: score 30. It's not, my nigga, because you have so
[2:02:39] Speaker 6: many other.
[2:02:39] Speaker 4: Options to score 30. I didn't say it was hard
[2:02:41] Speaker 4: to score 30. I said it's hard to average 30.
[2:02:43] Speaker 4: It's a difference.
[2:02:45] Speaker 6: The same as the average of my shot attempts, my efficiency.
[2:02:49] Speaker 1: If I'm out there... All that goes into play. T-Mac.
[2:02:52] Speaker 1: T-Mac averaged 30. Yeah. On the bad team. Yeah. And
[2:02:57] Speaker 1: it's T-Mac, nigga! Hold on. So, therefore, let's put it
[2:03:02] Speaker 1: in a winning situation. What awards did T-Mac deserve? Allen Iverson.
[2:03:06] Speaker 1: Scoring title, nigga. Let's put it in a winning situation.
[2:03:08] Speaker 1: Let's put it in a winning situation. So, let's put
[2:03:11] Speaker 1: it in a winning situation. You don't deserve MVP, you
[2:03:14] Speaker 1: don't deserve anything.
[2:03:15] Speaker 4: So that means T-Mac isn't good because he had 30.
[2:03:19] Speaker 6: He had the easiest way to 30 points a game
[2:03:21] Speaker 6: because he didn't.
[2:03:22] Speaker 1: Have to pass to nobody else. He's not easy. He
[2:03:24] Speaker 1: literally can.
[2:03:25] Speaker 6: Take all the shots to average 40.
[2:03:27] Speaker 5: When you don't have to pass.
[2:03:28] Speaker 4: To somebody else, it's easy. I can take a night
[2:03:31] Speaker 4: off and still have 30.
[2:03:32] Speaker 6: He had 63 and three quarters.
[2:03:35] Speaker 1: Y'all tripping. So if a.
[2:03:37] Speaker 4: Team comes in and double teamed you every single night,
[2:03:40] Speaker 4: that's easy.
[2:03:41] Speaker 1: That's easy for us. That's the only score. You just quit.
[2:03:43] Speaker 1: We just did nothing. What'd you just do?
[2:03:44] Speaker 4: We just triple teamed him.
[2:03:45] Speaker 1: You just went from here to here.
[2:03:50] Speaker 6: You just went from here to here. Now we're talking
[2:03:53] Speaker 6: about double teams.
[2:03:54] Speaker 1: That's what happens when you're the only option.
[2:03:57] Speaker 6: Listen, when you are the only option, you go get
[2:03:59] Speaker 6: your numbers regardless.
[2:04:01] Speaker 1: Regardless.
[2:04:02] Speaker 4: Then why isn't it more guys averaging third?
[2:04:05] Speaker 6: Kevin Martin, before you got the sack, he was averaging 28.
[2:04:09] Speaker 1: What's that mean? He's not a good scorer?
[2:04:11] Speaker 4: That means that he's on sack.
[2:04:13] Speaker 1: And you can average 28 if you're the only nigga
[2:04:14] Speaker 1: on sack. But does that mean he's not a good scorer? Nigga,
[2:04:16] Speaker 1: what was the rookie of the year? Evans. 20 a game.
[2:04:21] Speaker 1: Nobody was there.
[2:04:22] Speaker 4: I can average 20 a game because I don't got a.
[2:04:24] Speaker 1: Pass to nobody else.
[2:04:26] Speaker 4: But did he average 20 a game after that when
[2:04:28] Speaker 4: Marcus came in? When Isaiah came in? When other niggas
[2:04:31] Speaker 4: that can play? Nah, it's because the numbers.
[2:04:32] Speaker 1: So they were hard on him. No, he actually got hurt.
[2:04:36] Speaker 1: He actually got hurt. But his attempts go down. No,
[2:04:38] Speaker 1: he got hurt. He got hurt. You got to swing
[2:04:40] Speaker 1: that bitch now. Yeah, yeah, yeah. He over here. Boogie
[2:04:43] Speaker 1: in here. You can't just go down. You can't just
[2:04:45] Speaker 1: shoot when he shot you. Hold on. You can't go tweet, tweet, tweet.
[2:04:48] Speaker 1: I don't even sound right, bro.
[2:04:49] Speaker 6: His rookie year, he had the ball in his hands
[2:04:51] Speaker 6: all the time. He could have averaged 28.
[2:04:54] Speaker 1: He could have. But he didn't.
[2:04:56] Speaker 6: He wasn't effective because he wasn't effective. But he shot
[2:04:59] Speaker 6: that bitch every time.
[2:05:00] Speaker 1: But he didn't.
[2:05:01] Speaker 4: He wasn't effective. You're just saying something. That don't even
[2:05:03] Speaker 4: got nothing to do with what we're saying. The nigga
[2:05:05] Speaker 4: didn't average 30. What the fuck I got to do
[2:05:08] Speaker 4: with him to do it on a bad team? He
[2:05:10] Speaker 4: had the opportunity and he didn't do it, which proves
[2:05:12] Speaker 4: my point.
[2:05:13] Speaker 1: It's not easy to do. Wait, wait, wait. Hold the
[2:05:16] Speaker 1: fuck on. You. You playing the Drew, right? They call
[2:05:23] Speaker 1: you what? I am a legend. Was it harder?
[2:05:26] Speaker 4: Because we know your team when your ass was trash. Yeah,
[2:05:30] Speaker 4: I played with all my homies. With all your homies.
[2:05:32] Speaker 4: When everybody was triple teaming you.
[2:05:35] Speaker 1: And I still had 67. You still had 67. So
[2:05:38] Speaker 1: was it easy for you? Is it?
[2:05:40] Speaker 4: Yes.
[2:05:40] Speaker 1: Was it easy? It was easy. I can shoot any
[2:05:44] Speaker 1: shot I want. I can shoot the ball. You was
[2:05:49] Speaker 1: just a regular-ass scorer then, but you was just on
[2:05:51] Speaker 1: a horrible team to score. Or were you just that
[2:05:54] Speaker 1: skilled that you can beat through double teams? I can
[2:05:57] Speaker 1: shoot any shot I want. Any time.
[2:05:59] Speaker 6: He can decide to shoot.
[2:06:00] Speaker 1: You had a Green Lane Washington, didn't you? Nah, he
[2:06:02] Speaker 1: was fucking... Nah, after that. Oh, yeah, when he left? Yeah.
[2:06:06] Speaker 1: But John Wall was still there.
[2:06:08] Speaker 4: Nah, nah, don't bring John into this shit.
[2:06:10] Speaker 1: John was a rookie, so that ain't got enough. What
[2:06:13] Speaker 1: you average? That's cool, he was a rookie. What you average?
[2:06:17] Speaker 1: He was the number one.
[2:06:18] Speaker 5: Pick that got a motherfucker like him out of there.
[2:06:21] Speaker 1: So you're the second option now. What did you average? 18?
[2:06:25] Speaker 1: Shut the fuck up, man. I did. It's easy, though.
[2:06:28] Speaker 1: It is.
[2:06:28] Speaker 3: If it's easy on the bad team, you should at
[2:06:30] Speaker 3: least average 25.
[2:06:31] Speaker 1: Sorry. John Wall got the keys. You had the keys?
[2:06:35] Speaker 1: You was the second option. You was the second option
[2:06:38] Speaker 1: on the bad team with a rookie point guard. You
[2:06:41] Speaker 1: should at least average 25 if that shit was that easy.
[2:06:42] Speaker 1: I'll be honest with you. I just thought hypothetical.
[2:06:45] Speaker 4: Yeah.
[2:06:46] Speaker 6: I played 26 minutes a game, averaged 15. If I
[2:06:49] Speaker 6: play more minutes on a bad team like Minnesota, I
[2:06:52] Speaker 6: can definitely average 26 a game.
[2:06:54] Speaker 1: Hold on. You averaged 15 in 26 minutes? Mm-hmm.
[2:06:58] Speaker 3: And your jump was going to be to 25? Because
[2:07:00] Speaker 3: I didn't have no plays.
[2:07:02] Speaker 6: Literally, the next year was supposed to be, Chad, you're
[2:07:05] Speaker 6: the second option.
[2:07:06] Speaker 1: It's you and Big Al. Chad, I played you in Minnesota, bro.
[2:07:09] Speaker 1: What about it? What about it? Do you? What about it? Wait, wait,
[2:07:13] Speaker 1: hold on. What about it? What we have? We played you, too.
[2:07:16] Speaker 1: I seen Big Al play against you, too. What that mean?
[2:07:19] Speaker 1: What that mean? I got my bucket. We have a
[2:07:22] Speaker 1: Jordan pool. What that mean? We have a Jordan pool.
[2:07:23] Speaker 1: What it mean?
[2:07:24] Speaker 3: 15 with food.
[2:07:26] Speaker 1: Off the bench. Off the bench. Cool.
[2:07:28] Speaker 4: We have a Jordan pool example where a dude was.
[2:07:31] Speaker 1: No, we're not going to go. No, let's stay here. No, no, no,
[2:07:33] Speaker 1: let's stay here. Yours is a hypothetical. Exactly. That's the point. No,
[2:07:38] Speaker 1: we don't want hypothetical. We want real. Listen. When you
[2:07:41] Speaker 1: start going personal. We want real. That's when you start
[2:07:43] Speaker 1: getting cooked.
[2:07:44] Speaker 4: We want personal because we're talking about who can do what.
[2:07:47] Speaker 1: We want real. When you have an opportunity. No, we
[2:07:50] Speaker 1: want real. That is real. I just named all these guys.
[2:07:52] Speaker 1: That's a hypothetical. I named all these guys. I named
[2:07:55] Speaker 1: all these guys.
[2:08:00] Speaker 4: I got a perfect example, and we know who it is.
[2:08:02] Speaker 4: He came off the bench, right, on the championship team.
[2:08:06] Speaker 1: I like this.
[2:08:07] Speaker 4: He averaged 20 on that team.
[2:08:10] Speaker 1: He did. Jordan Poole. No one doubled him.
[2:08:13] Speaker 4: No one really scouted for him because they have these players.
[2:08:16] Speaker 1: We already had this conversation.
[2:08:18] Speaker 4: He goes to Washington where he.
[2:08:20] Speaker 1: Is the main focal point on the defensive scouting report.
[2:08:25] Speaker 1: He averages 17. He went down three points and there's
[2:08:30] Speaker 1: no Steph. Klay. Ultimate green light. He has an ultimate. Dude,
[2:08:33] Speaker 1: whatever the fuck. Nah, that was cool. The ball in
[2:08:35] Speaker 1: his hand. Who was on his team? That's the point
[2:08:39] Speaker 1: we making. Because now he gets every side. Kuzma's on
[2:08:42] Speaker 1: his team, bro. What do you mean? Man, come on, bro.
[2:08:45] Speaker 1: Where was Prazingis? Come on. Boston. Excuse me? No, he
[2:08:50] Speaker 1: was in Dallas. Say it again so I know y'all
[2:08:52] Speaker 1: know ball. Where was Prazingis? Boston. When Jordan Poole got there. Yes. Yes,
[2:09:00] Speaker 1: he was. Switch lines. Jordan Poole averaged 20 points. Jordan
[2:09:05] Speaker 1: Poole averaged 20 points. Cal Poole was still there.
[2:09:06] Speaker 3: Jordan Poole averaged 20 points still.
[2:09:10] Speaker 1: No, Jordan Poole was still there. Cal Poole was number one. No,
[2:09:13] Speaker 1: he wasn't, bro. Wait, so he averaged 20 points. Where
[2:09:15] Speaker 1: was Cal Poole? Seth Curry. No, he wasn't. But he can't.
[2:09:18] Speaker 1: Come on, Boogie. He can't average 20 points.
[2:09:21] Speaker 5: Let's shot attempts in his first year with the Wizards
[2:09:28] Speaker 5: than his last.
[2:09:28] Speaker 1: Year with the Lions. You can't ignore that. Because he
[2:09:31] Speaker 1: is double-teamed now. You come off a pick and roll.
[2:09:36] Speaker 1: I can double you now. I can jump you now.
[2:09:39] Speaker 1: I can jump you. What are you talking about? I
[2:09:41] Speaker 1: don't have to switch. You come off the pick and
[2:09:44] Speaker 1: roll and you got Gafford with you? Trap! Motherfucking trap!
[2:09:46] Speaker 1: Why didn't he do it? Somebody got a score. Why
[2:09:51] Speaker 1: didn't he? You said somebody? Somebody got a score. Why
[2:09:54] Speaker 1: didn't he? Because the game plan has changed. Let's go.
[2:09:57] Speaker 1: Somebody got a score. Let's go. Somebody got a score.
[2:10:00] Speaker 1: Speaking of that, what school time? 20-something. Let's go. Let's go.
[2:10:03] Speaker 1: Let's talk about this season before Detroit. Oh, he didn't
[2:10:05] Speaker 1: want to be there no more. Let's go. He didn't
[2:10:09] Speaker 1: want to be there no more. He didn't. It was obvious.
[2:10:12] Speaker 1: Nobody want to be in the Wizards uniform. 15. He
[2:10:14] Speaker 1: averaged 15. Koo's averaging 15 points. Come on, man. What
[2:10:17] Speaker 1: are we talking about? I said when he got there, nigga.
[2:10:19] Speaker 1: What was he averaging last year? Last year. Who got there?
[2:10:23] Speaker 1: He left the team in school. 22. 22. Come on, man.
[2:10:26] Speaker 1: Stop playing with me, man. So, 22 on the bat.
[2:10:28] Speaker 1: Just go personal, man. So, he can go.
[2:10:30] Speaker 6: You got a better chance than me going personal. As
[2:10:32] Speaker 6: a pitch player with Steph Curry and Klay on the team,
[2:10:36] Speaker 6: and you telling me he's having trouble with.
[2:10:37] Speaker 1: Come on, dog. Stop it. Talking about he was the
[2:10:40] Speaker 1: number one. What are y'all talking about? He averaged 22
[2:10:41] Speaker 1: before you got here, nigga. Shut up out here. Before
[2:10:44] Speaker 1: he got here. What?
[2:10:46] Speaker 2: Y'all don't even make any sense. 15.6 shot attempts per
[2:10:49] Speaker 2: game his last season with the Warriors. 15.2 shot attempts
[2:10:51] Speaker 2: in his first season with the Warriors.
[2:10:53] Speaker 4: Yeah, that makes sense because we can't do nothing with
[2:10:56] Speaker 4: him because we got to pay attention to Curry and
[2:11:00] Speaker 4: that motherfucking name play right there. So he gets to
[2:11:02] Speaker 4: play one-on-one. Well, he's in Washington. You come off of pick.
[2:11:06] Speaker 1: And roll, you getting blitzed. Trapped! Yeah! Oh, shit!
[2:11:09] Speaker 5: What's wrong with Dame Leonard now? Dame on Portland shot
[2:11:12] Speaker 5: every shot.
[2:11:13] Speaker 1: Now he's on Milwaukee. What's the difference? Because he's number two.
[2:11:16] Speaker 1: He's number two. He's number two. So, Jordan Poole. And
[2:11:19] Speaker 1: he got a Hall of Fame as a team. Y'all
[2:11:21] Speaker 1: love moving that motherfucker.
[2:11:23] Speaker 4: What goalposts we moving? We talking about Giannis. We ain't
[2:11:25] Speaker 4: talking about fucking Kuzma. You went from no scouting report
[2:11:31] Speaker 4: to now you by yourself.
[2:11:32] Speaker 1: You are the focal on the scouting report. I love
[2:11:37] Speaker 1: talking to niggas like y'all. We circling the block, man. Yeah,
[2:11:40] Speaker 1: circle the block. I don't have to. We circle the block.
[2:11:43] Speaker 1: We can rewind the shit back. You circled it. We
[2:11:45] Speaker 1: already know. Rashad is an obvious. You said somebody got
[2:11:48] Speaker 1: a score. I'm saying why did Poole do it then?
[2:11:50] Speaker 1: He was by himself.
[2:11:52] Speaker 6: They left my belt because they didn't want to see it.
[2:11:55] Speaker 4: They did not bring the belt today. They did not
[2:11:57] Speaker 4: bring the belt today. What you going to say about Iverson?
[2:11:59] Speaker 1: I got a question.
[2:12:01] Speaker 7: Should Jordan Poole be averaging more points than he did
[2:12:03] Speaker 7: in Golden State? That's a tough question.
[2:12:06] Speaker 1: No. He should? No. Okay. Why not? It could be
[2:12:08] Speaker 1: the system. Because you don't want to be there. Yeah.
[2:12:10] Speaker 4: Oh, hey, I know, didn't we, I think, can somebody find.
[2:12:15] Speaker 1: So he quit on the team? No, Wizards could have
[2:12:18] Speaker 1: quit on him. I think we all talked about that.
[2:12:20] Speaker 6: This is why it's so weird that you're here and
[2:12:23] Speaker 6: we're doing this shit again.
[2:12:24] Speaker 1: We already done did all this.
[2:12:25] Speaker 4: We did have Andre Iguodala on this couch and we
[2:12:27] Speaker 4: talked conservatively 25 to 30 points again.
[2:12:30] Speaker 1: We said he was going to average. What? When he
[2:12:32] Speaker 1: got there because he was going to be by himself.
[2:12:34] Speaker 1: What did we say? We already talked about all that, dude.
[2:12:37] Speaker 1: Y'all see how he look in this picture? Nick, we
[2:12:40] Speaker 1: already done talked about all of this. It's weird. This
[2:12:45] Speaker 1: is weird. You know what we haven't talked about? Mostly fans.
[2:12:49] Speaker 1: So let's get to that. It is almost 2 o'clock.
[2:12:52] Speaker 2: You already know. We've been going hard today. Our first
[2:12:53] Speaker 2: day back in the arena. We appreciate Boogie Cousins pulling up.
[2:12:56] Speaker 2: It's been a very spirited day. Glad to see all
[2:12:59] Speaker 2: of you back in the flesh.
[2:13:00] Speaker 7: Before we do more, hey, you know, I'm a fucking dude.
[2:13:04] Speaker 4: So....
[2:13:05] Speaker 7: When the fat motherfucker got the job in Sacramento and
[2:13:09] Speaker 7: he tried to get rid of my man before his fucking.
[2:13:11] Speaker 1: Ink was dry. You know what I'm fucking talking about.

[2:13:29] Speaker 1: And then the reports come out, they trying to get
[2:13:30] Speaker 1: rid of him. I'm like.
[2:13:31] Speaker 7: That motherfucker ink wasn't dried on his contract good before
[2:13:34] Speaker 7: he tried to get my man out the building, dog.
[2:13:36] Speaker 1: Never even had the conversation. Never had the.
[2:13:38] Speaker 7: Conversation with this man about nothing. Didn't get the chance
[2:13:40] Speaker 7: to know this man. He just judged this man from afar.
[2:13:43] Speaker 7: And that's why it ain't just, I'm not just saying
[2:13:45] Speaker 7: fuck George Carl for me. I'm saying fuck George Carl
[2:13:49] Speaker 7: for the people that really feel like fuck George Carl.

[2:14:09] Speaker 6: since working with him.
[2:14:11] Speaker 1: He thought I had.
[2:14:12] Speaker 7: To let Kobe know that I ain't got no problem
[2:14:13] Speaker 7: with you, boy. I ain't going to hold you for
[2:14:15] Speaker 7: the sins of your father, dog.
[2:14:17] Speaker 1: I ain't got no issue with you, man. Like, because
[2:14:19] Speaker 1: he was like, Kobe was like kind of hesitant, right? Like, yeah,
[2:14:22] Speaker 1: but he was like hesitant.
[2:14:23] Speaker 3: You want to know something funny about that? When I
[2:14:25] Speaker 3: was with the Lakers, he was on the staff. He
[2:14:27] Speaker 3: did the same shit to me.
[2:14:28] Speaker 4: He came over and he's like, you.
[2:14:31] Speaker 1: Think you would ever go sit down to dinner with
[2:14:33] Speaker 1: my dad? Oh, he didn't ask me that. Oh, he
[2:14:35] Speaker 1: ain't never asked me that. He didn't ask me that. Oh, boy. Man.
[2:14:38] Speaker 1: No chance. Man. What if it was no boo? What
[2:14:39] Speaker 1: if it was no boo? Malibu. With the work. He
[2:14:50] Speaker 1: had work. Come on, man. I can make this up
[2:14:53] Speaker 1: to you. I just hate when they pre.
[2:14:55] Speaker 4: When they come to the team and they already... pre-design
[2:15:01] Speaker 4: what they're going to do. Well, I mean, you ain't
[2:15:03] Speaker 4: been through shoot-around.
[2:15:04] Speaker 7: That man told Melo he wanted to play like, he
[2:15:06] Speaker 7: wanted Melo to play like Deadlift Strength, man.
[2:15:08] Speaker 1: Listen, come on, man.
[2:15:09] Speaker 7: Like, no, not Deadlift, but you was a nice player,
[2:15:12] Speaker 7: but let's, like, you get the job, you told it,
[2:15:16] Speaker 7: George told Melo he wanted to play like, first of all, you.
[2:15:18] Speaker 4: Ain't looked under the hood to see what kind of
[2:15:21] Speaker 4: agent this is.
[2:15:21] Speaker 1: You ain't even been like, all right, so look, what
[2:15:23] Speaker 1: we're going to do is we're going to take five
[2:15:25] Speaker 1: shots away from you. He like, who going to get him?
[2:15:26] Speaker 3: You know the part that's crazy for me, because it's like,
[2:15:29] Speaker 3: you know, teams are, you know, they'll go after a guy,
[2:15:32] Speaker 3: recruit him in free agency, and obviously getting the job,
[2:15:35] Speaker 3: they're going to say, you know, we want you to
[2:15:36] Speaker 3: do this, this, and this. Like, this is what we
[2:15:39] Speaker 3: view you as with this team. And you agree on that.
[2:15:41] Speaker 3: You know what I'm saying?
[2:15:43] Speaker 1: But when you agree on it and then you don't
[2:15:45] Speaker 1: do it, you get bashed for it. You're not coachable.
[2:15:47] Speaker 1: You're not the same guy.
[2:15:49] Speaker 3: I just never understood why isn't that same standard held
[2:15:51] Speaker 3: for coaches?
[2:15:52] Speaker 1: Because a coach is just there. Go from every place
[2:15:54] Speaker 1: to place. Label.
[2:15:56] Speaker 3: A coach can go to an organization, and the organization
[2:15:58] Speaker 3: can already have that franchise guy. You're like, this is
[2:16:00] Speaker 3: our guy. We want to move forward with him. And
[2:16:02] Speaker 3: as a coach, can you coach this guy and move
[2:16:04] Speaker 3: forward with him? If the coach agrees on it, then
[2:16:08] Speaker 3: you agree on it. But a guy like George can
[2:16:12] Speaker 3: come in and do all those things and, you know,
[2:16:14] Speaker 3: go opposite of what he said he would do.
[2:16:16] Speaker 1: Mm-hmm.
[2:16:17] Speaker 3: Nothing is done about it. No backlash. Nothing said about
[2:16:21] Speaker 3: his name. No type of tarnishment. You know, he kind
[2:16:24] Speaker 3: of rise up in the sunset. They let him go.
[2:16:28] Speaker 3: I just don't understand that standard.
[2:16:29] Speaker 7: Because as long as we doing this shit and this
[2:16:32] Speaker 7: motherfucker here works and this sound coming out.
[2:16:36] Speaker 1: But you couldn't say it then, though. Oh, who? Nah,
[2:16:39] Speaker 1: you couldn't say it then. I said it to him. No, no,
