00:01:18.760 --> 00:01:23.480
I'm also hearing my other enthusiastic brother, what's good. Good people,

5
00:01:23.640 --> 00:01:26.560
It's a pleasure to be in the

00:01:27.159 --> 00:01:30.599
that's how we started to show off. That's fine with me and my other

7
00:01:30.719 --> 00:01:34.120
brother to the side of me.
That's necessary. I mean, I do

8
00:01:34.200 --> 00:01:38.200

that's fine. You don't have to use

9
00:01:38.680 --> 00:01:41.319
only three of us here, that's
fine. Like I said, you don't

10
00:01:41.359 --> 00:01:44.239
have to use it. Everybody knows
right next to you, except for the

11
00:01:44.239 --> 00:01:49.519
people who are listening on the podcast. But hey, anybody who's been listening

12
00:01:49.519 --> 00:01:55.840
to us, And if I mentioned
new people about the new people, they're

13
00:01:55.879 --> 00:01:59.239
just in the dark. Anybody who
listening those three of us. I'm saying,

14
00:01:59.239 --> 00:02:00.680
though this is a new people,
they don't know that they knew.

15
00:02:02.400 --> 00:02:06.680
It's cool, don't worry about it. So anyways, let's move on to

16
00:02:06.760 --> 00:02:12.759
the injury report. I'm just saying
this injury report, no significant injuries,

17
00:02:14.439 --> 00:02:17.840
none, none whatsoever? None whatsoever? Are you sure about that? Do

18
00:02:17.840 --> 00:02:23.719
you know something? Thought? Woa, No, you know something? I

19
00:02:23.719 --> 00:02:34.800
don't believe informous? All right,
cool. Anyways, we're gonna move around

20
00:02:34.800 --> 00:02:38.639
to the shoot around topic. N
Season Tournament. The first round is about

21
00:02:38.680 --> 00:02:44.039
the end on Tuesday. What do
you guys think so far? Like,

22
00:02:44.080 --> 00:02:47.639
has your mind? Have your opinions
changed about the N Season Tournament. N

23
00:02:47.680 --> 00:02:53.719
Season Tournament for me was always a
cash grab, So I mean, I

24
00:02:53.759 --> 00:02:57.240
don't I think the game would have
been fine without it. But again,

25
00:02:57.439 --> 00:03:00.439
to be able to go to Vegas
for a weekend, to be able to

26
00:03:00.560 --> 00:03:06.039
watch your favorite stars, and the
championship is in two weeks, so two

27
00:03:06.039 --> 00:03:12.080
weeks from today is a championship.
Players are starting to take it seriously because

28
00:03:12.120 --> 00:03:15.319
I think what it does is it
motivates, It pushes UH, and it

29
00:03:15.360 --> 00:03:20.560
also gives you. It still goes
into your win loss records. So I've

30
00:03:20.599 --> 00:03:23.919
been to a couple of the Bucks
games on a Tuesday and a Friday,

31
00:03:23.960 --> 00:03:29.439
and they've been really competitive games,
really good games. I think the league

32
00:03:29.680 --> 00:03:32.400
can do without it, and at
the end of the day, the Championship

33
00:03:32.439 --> 00:03:36.639
Cup, I think will be treated
a lot like the All Star Cup or

34
00:03:36.680 --> 00:03:40.599
All Star Game, where it's just
a personalized accolade. It won't matter.

35
00:03:40.639 --> 00:03:44.800
No one's gonna look back and say, oh my god, the Milwaukee Bucks

36
00:03:44.879 --> 00:03:47.599
won the end season Championship Cup.
No one cares. This is a league

37
00:03:47.680 --> 00:03:55.159
about rings and championships. So that
Championship Cup cool? Great, I like

38
00:03:55.240 --> 00:04:03.680
it, but I can do without. That's just met me. Say what

39
00:04:03.759 --> 00:04:11.680
again, Wow, champion, I'm
gonna get on this nose. Well,

40
00:04:11.960 --> 00:04:18.399
well, yeah, yeah, you
pay back. You are quite fond of

41
00:04:18.439 --> 00:04:23.720
it. First round has been a
little bit of shocking to me, you

42
00:04:23.759 --> 00:04:27.639
know, to see the Lakers are
four and oh with the Bucks four and

43
00:04:27.759 --> 00:04:32.160
up. The three last games are
just coming up Tuesday. For the first

44
00:04:35.160 --> 00:04:42.759
denvers out of it. I didn't
understand how teams that I thought would be

45
00:04:42.800 --> 00:04:46.319
at the top are not at the
top in the n season tournament. So

46
00:04:46.360 --> 00:04:51.920
I guess the long haul of the
season shall determine a lot. This is

47
00:04:51.959 --> 00:04:57.639
just a short term. Has you
has your opinion changed about the season tournament?

48
00:04:57.639 --> 00:05:01.160
Then oh you was building up to
that, My fuck, go ahead.

49
00:05:02.480 --> 00:05:08.319
So what I was going to say
was I wasn't a fan of it

50
00:05:08.360 --> 00:05:13.480
at first, but now I'm kind
of a little bit on board with it

51
00:05:13.519 --> 00:05:18.199
because it's kind of making the games
a little more interesting to start the season.

52
00:05:18.480 --> 00:05:24.439
Is that only because the Lakers are
in the first place, Well,

53
00:05:24.480 --> 00:05:27.800
the Lakers are four and oh,
so the Lakers are in first in their

54
00:05:27.839 --> 00:05:31.879
division for n season tournament in their
group, and the Bucks and somebody else

55
00:05:32.079 --> 00:05:36.879
though New Orleans. Well, let
me go over this real quick, like

56
00:05:36.959 --> 00:05:41.319
for the Eastern Conference. So,
like I said before, we have games

57
00:05:41.439 --> 00:05:46.680
coming up on Tuesday, so like
Indiana's already in it. But let me

58
00:05:46.720 --> 00:05:53.519
talk about these eliminated teams. You
got Toronto, Chicago, Washington, and

59
00:05:53.560 --> 00:05:57.959
you got Detroit. So like as
far as like East b which is the

60
00:05:57.959 --> 00:06:01.519
Milwaukee one, I think they play
on Tuesday day. The Knicks play on

61
00:06:01.600 --> 00:06:06.199
Tuesday, Miami plays on Tuesday,
Charlotte plays on Tuesday. But they're one

62
00:06:06.199 --> 00:06:10.600
and two, so they can only
come out as two and two and then

63
00:06:13.040 --> 00:06:15.959
so really the Bucks are going to
clinch then, guardless, the Bucks are

64
00:06:15.959 --> 00:06:19.959
gonna clinch. I haven't yet,
but they're going to clinch. But thinks

65
00:06:20.199 --> 00:06:24.560
the Lakers have clinched. Yeah,
but the Miami, I mean the Western

66
00:06:24.560 --> 00:06:28.519
Conference, if they clinched the first
round, they're in it. They're in

67
00:06:28.639 --> 00:06:33.519
they're in the they're they're going to
compete for the championship cup. No,

68
00:06:33.519 --> 00:06:41.000
no, so another So it's the
quarterfinals. It's the quarterfinals. It says

69
00:06:41.040 --> 00:06:46.079
here clinched in season tournament group.
Yeah, they clinched their group, and

70
00:06:46.120 --> 00:06:47.680
then they have a quarter finals,
they have the semi finals, they have

71
00:06:47.720 --> 00:06:51.720
a championship, and that's all in
Vegas. No, in Vegas, the

72
00:06:51.839 --> 00:06:59.160
championship. Okay, okay, well
that's interesting because that means next week,

73
00:06:59.759 --> 00:07:02.279
this weekend, next week we're playing
quarterfinals, is what you're saying, because

74
00:07:02.360 --> 00:07:08.600
think about it. Okay, December
seventh and eighth, ninth is championship weekend

75
00:07:09.920 --> 00:07:12.879
for end season tournament. It's in
Vegas on the seventh, eighth, and

76
00:07:13.000 --> 00:07:17.720
ninth. That's in two weeks.
So it's just is it just the ninth,

77
00:07:17.759 --> 00:07:19.839
so there's nothing, Well, it's
you know how the NBA does this

78
00:07:20.000 --> 00:07:24.519
NBA weekend And I only know that
because I'm always in Vegas. But it's

79
00:07:24.639 --> 00:07:28.439
NBA weekend December seventh through the ninth, and the championship game is on the

80
00:07:28.560 --> 00:07:32.519
ninth. I mean, I still
think it's too confusing for a casual fan,

81
00:07:33.040 --> 00:07:35.680
right, Like, if you know
in the floors I think you all

82
00:07:35.720 --> 00:07:41.000
saw up close and personal. On
the other day, floors are hideous.

83
00:07:41.040 --> 00:07:45.079
The Bucks look like the most basketball
floor of them all. But I mean

84
00:07:46.240 --> 00:07:47.639
i've been like the Bucks floor.
I still don't. But you know,

85
00:07:47.680 --> 00:07:53.079
it is shout out to the Lakers, who are probably gonna win the end

86
00:07:53.120 --> 00:07:58.040
season tournament, you think, so, I don't know. I'm very interested

87
00:07:58.040 --> 00:08:01.600
to see what's going to happen with
a tournament. I think the NC tournament

88
00:08:01.720 --> 00:08:09.519
has has there's hype at the beginning
of the season. Usually these first for

89
00:08:09.759 --> 00:08:13.439
six weeks. You know, you're
kind of picking fine story. Stuff happens,

90
00:08:13.480 --> 00:08:16.639
you talk about it. But I
think this n season tournament has given

91
00:08:16.759 --> 00:08:20.839
up a lot give us a little
bit more motive. I mean, money

92
00:08:20.879 --> 00:08:24.040
is always a motive for the players, but for us fans, I think

93
00:08:24.040 --> 00:08:28.319
it's getting a little hype and it's
interesting. You can see players getting hyped

94
00:08:28.399 --> 00:08:33.399
up about it. So I think
this very interesting. I thought it was

95
00:08:33.559 --> 00:08:37.879
very interesting. And to clarify,
the quarterfinals are December fourth and fifth.

96
00:08:39.279 --> 00:08:43.360
The semi finals are the seventh in
Vegas, and the championship is the ninth

97
00:08:43.440 --> 00:08:48.159
in Vegas, so there'll be two
semi final games in Vegas. On December

98
00:08:48.159 --> 00:08:52.799
seventh, and the championship on Saturday, December ninth. Oh, you're right,

99
00:08:52.799 --> 00:08:56.960
because the final four, yeah yeah, final three, no, you're

100
00:08:58.039 --> 00:09:00.360
right, Final four, you're right. You're right, you're right, and

101
00:09:00.399 --> 00:09:03.840
then the quarterfinals are the fourth and
fifth as you mentioned. So it'll be

102
00:09:03.919 --> 00:09:05.960
interesting. Man. You know,
I the Bucks tend to do good and

103
00:09:07.000 --> 00:09:09.559
stuff like this, but I don't
want that championship cup. I don't want

104
00:09:09.559 --> 00:09:15.159
that consolation prize. I don't know. I feel like are I feel like

105
00:09:15.159 --> 00:09:18.519
with the Eastern Conference they'll do good, but it'll be very interesting to see

106
00:09:18.679 --> 00:09:24.080
how they'll pan out because they're NFL
players like Boston or PHILADELNAA, Philadelphia,

107
00:09:24.200 --> 00:09:28.000
I think Indiana, which they did
be this so it would be interesting.

108
00:09:28.039 --> 00:09:33.080
But the teams like Indiana, who
I don't see their four and oh yeah,

109
00:09:33.080 --> 00:09:35.120
I know what I'm saying for them
to go four and on now,

110
00:09:35.159 --> 00:09:37.919
but like, do you see them
actually making the playoffs? Let me tell

111
00:09:37.919 --> 00:09:41.200
you how to get the tournament.
Let me tell you something, man,

112
00:09:41.879 --> 00:09:48.679
Tyrese Halliburton is having a freaking incredible
year, and folks better stop sleeping on

113
00:09:48.720 --> 00:09:52.039
the Pacers. I'm not saying that
they're gonna go and win the championship.

114
00:09:52.679 --> 00:10:01.840
But the the Indiana Pacers, the
Sacramento Kings, these sleeper teams that we

115
00:10:01.960 --> 00:10:07.559
all may always sleep on because they
know that they may or may not have

116
00:10:07.679 --> 00:10:13.279
a true championship pathway. They are
taking this in season tournament seriously. So

117
00:10:13.360 --> 00:10:18.279
I don't think it's a given.
But I think Lebron shines and stuff like

118
00:10:18.360 --> 00:10:22.200
this. Just stick about his All
Star games, stick about you know everything.

119
00:10:22.279 --> 00:10:26.879
I granted, the Pacers are only
six in regular seating, but you

120
00:10:26.919 --> 00:10:31.159
know they're beating the teams in their
conferences. So time will tell. But

121
00:10:31.240 --> 00:10:35.720
again that the en season turney.
I mean, it's great because it'll be

122
00:10:35.720 --> 00:10:39.759
the first, but I'm I'm here
for titles. So Bucks, if you

123
00:10:39.799 --> 00:10:45.000
win it, don't get complacent.
You Well, I'll say it like you

124
00:10:45.080 --> 00:10:48.600
mentioned Indiana looking at the team.
Remember you say a championship or bus?

125
00:10:48.679 --> 00:10:58.480
Does that counts looking like a bus? And the fact that if they win

126
00:10:58.519 --> 00:11:03.039
the championship in tournament championship and then
lose the NBA Finals, this season was

127
00:11:03.080 --> 00:11:09.519
still horrible, you think, so, yes, that's a victory victory food

128
00:11:09.279 --> 00:11:13.919
for them. It ain't that's victory. They won the first They won the

129
00:11:13.960 --> 00:11:16.080
first NBA n Season Tournament. That's
not even the victory for the city.

130
00:11:16.120 --> 00:11:20.480
That's a victory for them specifically because
they getting paid. I think it's a

131
00:11:20.559 --> 00:11:26.200
victory for the city because you'll be
able to say you're the first. Right,

132
00:11:26.279 --> 00:11:30.279
because here's the thing. It's not
going anywhere, right, like the

133
00:11:30.320 --> 00:11:33.399
off It's not going on as long
as Adam Silver is in charge. And

134
00:11:33.440 --> 00:11:35.679
it generates because Vegas tickets are sold
out already. Question, let me just

135
00:11:35.679 --> 00:11:39.320
tell you put that out. You
brought up something very interesting. You said,

136
00:11:39.320 --> 00:11:41.440
it's not going nowhere. No,
So you think this is gonna be

137
00:11:41.480 --> 00:11:45.000
going on forever. Oh? Absolutely, I do not. Oh I do

138
00:11:45.120 --> 00:11:48.240
not. I think this is gonna
go on until they find a team to

139
00:11:48.279 --> 00:11:52.159
put in Vegas. Well that's happening. I mean as soon as Lebron retires

140
00:11:52.200 --> 00:11:54.200
him in shack and put their money
together and yeah, but I'm saying,

141
00:11:54.240 --> 00:11:58.399
like, until that has happened,
I don't think this is gonna continue.

142
00:11:58.720 --> 00:12:03.519
I disagree because you think about it's
it generates money. And for rookie here's

143
00:12:03.600 --> 00:12:07.919
why, for rookies who don't make
no money to be able to get five

144
00:12:07.000 --> 00:12:11.799
hundred thousand dollars bonus for winning what
do you know what that does to a

145
00:12:11.919 --> 00:12:18.440
rookie? Check five hundred thousand of
the winners. I believe they said each

146
00:12:18.600 --> 00:12:24.759
players five hundred thousand, not to
split each player. You sure about that?

147
00:12:24.600 --> 00:12:28.600
Let's uh a lot of money.
Let's fact check NBA got it.

148
00:12:28.679 --> 00:12:31.679
I mean that's the thing, like
the payer, the players who aren't I

149
00:12:31.720 --> 00:12:35.120
think they made a good point.
He was like, for the players who

150
00:12:35.200 --> 00:12:37.399
aren't, you know, here on
a ten day contract, or they're here

151
00:12:37.440 --> 00:12:41.720
just for a short time, not
they're here for a good time, that

152
00:12:41.840 --> 00:12:45.399
a long time, they can like, oh five hundred thousand, I'm finna

153
00:12:45.399 --> 00:12:46.799
start playing my butt off. I'm
finna start doing what I need to do.

154
00:12:46.799 --> 00:12:48.919
They not only stay on this team, but just to get this money,

155
00:12:50.879 --> 00:12:52.919
and that's what they do. They
have to play to get this money.

156
00:12:52.960 --> 00:12:56.320
Like Drake talk about these rookies,
each about guys who didn't get picked

157
00:12:56.360 --> 00:12:58.120
up in the first round or who
weren't the who aren't a lottery picked.

158
00:12:58.720 --> 00:13:03.679
So they getting they get they getting
that five hundred thousand is gonna help them

159
00:13:03.679 --> 00:13:09.440
out tremendously. Now, is uncle
Sam let me say he is. Players

160
00:13:09.480 --> 00:13:18.120
on the losing team and the quarterfinals
received fifty thousand dollars players, and think

161
00:13:18.120 --> 00:13:20.679
about it, that's for their charity
too, you know what I'm saying.

162
00:13:20.840 --> 00:13:26.080
Players on a team that loses in
the semi finals get one hundred thousand dollars.

163
00:13:26.519 --> 00:13:31.120
Players on the team that loses in
the championship get two hundred thousand dollars.

164
00:13:31.600 --> 00:13:35.039
Players on a team that win the
championship they get five hundred thousand dollars

165
00:13:35.120 --> 00:13:39.759
a piece. Now that might be
a lot of money, but if you

166
00:13:39.840 --> 00:13:43.039
are a scrub like Green on the
Bucks, who doesn't pass the ball,

167
00:13:43.639 --> 00:13:48.159
who just likes to shoot, that's
what you're there for. But that five

168
00:13:48.200 --> 00:13:52.240
hundred k for him, that's a
big deal because there's only some players making

169
00:13:52.240 --> 00:13:56.759
two million fifty a man. But
still, that's two fifty four bouncing a

170
00:13:56.840 --> 00:14:01.720
ball for one additional day, you
know what I'm saying. So it's a

171
00:14:01.759 --> 00:14:05.159
win win for me. This isn't
going anywhere. The players will get behind

172
00:14:05.159 --> 00:14:09.440
it because it's a cash crap.
And don't forget the NBA players love Las

173
00:14:09.559 --> 00:14:15.200
Vegas. Let us not act like
they. I don't think we'll see real

174
00:14:15.279 --> 00:14:16.840
quick. I want to say this, Well, the Bucks did win,

175
00:14:18.200 --> 00:14:22.240
but I want to give a shout
out because We're near the mid season point,

176
00:14:22.879 --> 00:14:26.519
and I want to give a shout
out to the teams that nobody expected

177
00:14:26.559 --> 00:14:31.440
to be doing it is what is
it? Oh? I didn't see that?

178
00:14:31.480 --> 00:14:39.519
Man? Your agendas ten minutes the
show. Well, if you just

179
00:14:39.519 --> 00:14:46.399
take you take a quick look at
them, they'll be there. I can

180
00:14:46.480 --> 00:14:52.159
stop being in church to look at
your late emails, ladies and gentlemen.

181
00:14:54.279 --> 00:14:58.720
It takes to do that. So
the rookies are struggling. The rookies are

182
00:14:58.720 --> 00:15:05.240
st school. Henderson has been assigned
to the G League for conditioning because he's

183
00:15:05.279 --> 00:15:11.399
just came back from injury ankle injury
conditioning. I call cap. First of

184
00:15:11.440 --> 00:15:15.240
all, I call cap. He's
averaging eight point eight a game, two

185
00:15:15.240 --> 00:15:18.799
point two rebounds, four point six
assists, he's shooting thirty six percent from

186
00:15:18.799 --> 00:15:22.960
the from the field goal range,
and then he's shooting nine point five from

187
00:15:22.960 --> 00:15:28.480
three point range. What are your
thoughts on this? Is this just a

188
00:15:28.519 --> 00:15:31.799
guy trying to get you know,
his he's trying to get you know,

189
00:15:31.000 --> 00:15:35.720
acclimated to the NBA or is this
a bust? Didn't he come off of

190
00:15:35.799 --> 00:15:39.240
injury? He's hurt, Yeah,
he's That's why they send him the league

191
00:15:39.320 --> 00:15:45.600
conditioning. Give him time to get
conditionstics. I did, So what what

192
00:15:45.559 --> 00:15:48.679
do you mean? So? What
I mean? He's shooting nine percent from

193
00:15:48.720 --> 00:15:52.320
three point range? He's shooting thirty
six percent from the field. Stop stop

194
00:15:52.320 --> 00:15:54.159
shooting from the three point line.
From the field, he shooting thirty six

195
00:15:54.159 --> 00:16:00.639
percent. I've seen worse. I've
seen worse. There's the thing, the

196
00:16:00.759 --> 00:16:06.360
pressure to play in the n b
A. Is he a bust? You

197
00:16:06.360 --> 00:16:10.120
got to give him a little coming
off an injury. And it's only sending

198
00:16:10.200 --> 00:16:12.840
them to the G League. That's
that's a different story compared to you playing.

199
00:16:12.879 --> 00:16:18.759
And then he gets a combination No, Jimmy Butler's partners playing in the

200
00:16:18.759 --> 00:16:22.120
G League right now? So dangerous. So then, how you're gonna ask

201
00:16:22.200 --> 00:16:26.480
us a question? You know you're
right, You know you're right everyone.

202
00:16:26.559 --> 00:16:30.960
That's part of the show too.
So what about? What? What about?

203
00:16:30.960 --> 00:16:33.440
What? Chris Middleton got a sign
to the G League? He was

204
00:16:33.480 --> 00:16:40.200
clearly coming off a major injury.
Injury. He sprained his ankle to judgments

205
00:16:40.360 --> 00:16:41.679
right now, how you don't know
how bad it is. Some angle,

206
00:16:42.360 --> 00:16:47.879
some ankle springs are just as bad
as a break or worse. Are you

207
00:16:48.000 --> 00:16:52.879
telling me? Looking at his stats? This is just hey, we need

208
00:16:52.919 --> 00:16:57.039
to get this is just conditioning or
it's just you know, a bust.

209
00:16:59.000 --> 00:17:00.440
Because, be honest with you,
I was looking at school like, this

210
00:17:00.519 --> 00:17:06.079
is gonna be your rookie. Oh
no, did you see Victor? While

211
00:17:06.119 --> 00:17:11.839
mean before Victor Wingspan, I'm saying
off top, Well, let's go to

212
00:17:12.279 --> 00:17:18.400
the first three draft picks. Wingspan, Schoop, I think his name is

213
00:17:18.400 --> 00:17:22.519
Miller. I think you're talking about
Giddy who dude in Okay, see this

214
00:17:22.640 --> 00:17:26.839
in a little bit of trouble right
now. He was a rookie last year.

215
00:17:27.759 --> 00:17:33.079
Yeah, school, I just told
you who they were, Wingspan,

216
00:17:33.279 --> 00:17:38.079
Schoop and Brandon Miller. Well,
if you thought Scoop was gonna be Rookie

217
00:17:38.079 --> 00:17:42.400
of the Year over Victor, that's
just your own bad judgment because no one

218
00:17:42.480 --> 00:17:48.240
thought that. Okay, everybody knew
that Victor would be coming in killing it.

219
00:17:51.680 --> 00:17:52.759
When we talked about it, I
said he was gonna be good.

220
00:17:52.799 --> 00:17:55.960
You're the only one to tho you
said. You was like, well,

221
00:17:56.079 --> 00:18:00.279
you know, g doumb you don
and the kid is balling out. He

222
00:18:00.440 --> 00:18:02.839
was balling out. Balling out is
hard. I think he's getting used to

223
00:18:02.920 --> 00:18:06.680
things. I think he's using his
Wingspan. I think he's blocking shots because

224
00:18:06.680 --> 00:18:10.880
he's seven teen he should be blocking
shots and doing all the stuff he's doing

225
00:18:11.240 --> 00:18:14.039
speaking to which I don't see it
on your thing. But since it's related

226
00:18:14.759 --> 00:18:18.960
related, what do you think about? Yeah, what do you think about

227
00:18:18.240 --> 00:18:21.359
and we'll come back to your topic. What do you think about, uh,

228
00:18:22.240 --> 00:18:27.400
san Antonio's coach? His name great? We think about Popovich asking the

229
00:18:27.440 --> 00:18:34.599
crowd not to boo Kawhil at the
Spurs, right. But but it's related

230
00:18:34.599 --> 00:18:41.359
though, because we're talking about Victor
Wingspan, the thing is about to be.

231
00:18:41.519 --> 00:18:44.680
To be honest with you, when
I first seen I was like,

232
00:18:44.680 --> 00:18:48.079
this is kind of corny because it
was it was it was real. It

233
00:18:48.079 --> 00:18:51.559
was given high school teacher. Hey, guys, show him some respect.

234
00:18:51.960 --> 00:18:56.240
Show him some respect. Guy?
Was it corny because he opposing team you

235
00:18:56.279 --> 00:19:00.319
boo people like that? He did
win championships there, right, got to

236
00:19:00.319 --> 00:19:02.640
do anything. You think you're not
gonna boo Lebron. You think we're not

237
00:19:02.640 --> 00:19:04.640
gonna bo You think we're not gonna
boot Ray Allen when he comes to town.

238
00:19:04.920 --> 00:19:08.279
They didn't boot Lebron when they went
to Cleveland. Yeah, this time

239
00:19:11.039 --> 00:19:15.319
this time, like, don't hear
and don't here and tell me not to

240
00:19:15.319 --> 00:19:18.720
boot somebody. Why why do you
think they didn't born because what he did?

241
00:19:18.759 --> 00:19:22.640
What championship? Okay, then so
why would they do the same thing

242
00:19:22.640 --> 00:19:26.960
for Kawhi because he left. He
bought them a championship though, right,

243
00:19:26.000 --> 00:19:30.599
but he left, he played,
he played a major role in that championship.

244
00:19:30.799 --> 00:19:34.519
Let's cut the craft beer number one
there. They had two championships before

245
00:19:34.559 --> 00:19:38.160
he got there number two, so
what uh the last one they probably could

246
00:19:38.160 --> 00:19:44.480
have won without him. What I'm
saying that trip you matter. Put some

247
00:19:44.519 --> 00:19:48.480
respect on Kawhi and Day. What
I'm saying is this, don't tell me

248
00:19:48.519 --> 00:19:52.079
not to boot somebody, and you
know they're on a supposing team. That's

249
00:19:52.079 --> 00:19:59.759
part of the game. I didn't
think his feeling was hurt because I guess

250
00:19:59.759 --> 00:20:03.480
I'm say this for a coach Greg
Popovich. As tough as he is,

251
00:20:04.480 --> 00:20:11.279
he has a lot Greg Popovich to
be on the opposing team for me is

252
00:20:11.400 --> 00:20:15.480
too buddy, Buddy. I think
he like going to hug Lebron in the

253
00:20:15.519 --> 00:20:18.079
locker room when they won the title, Like, Bru, you don't have

254
00:20:18.119 --> 00:20:22.519
to do that. Your team just
lost. And to tell and here's my

255
00:20:22.599 --> 00:20:33.960
thing, bless you and to tell
and to tell uh into and to tell

256
00:20:33.279 --> 00:20:41.559
people that pay their money, they're
hard on money. Not to boo to

257
00:20:41.640 --> 00:20:45.759
me is foul, Like I paid
my money. I can see if I'm

258
00:20:45.440 --> 00:20:51.359
yelling boguer stuff like they're doing that
racist town of Boston, right, I

259
00:20:51.400 --> 00:20:53.599
can see if we're doing that.
But if I'm just booing him to distract

260
00:20:53.680 --> 00:21:03.039
him from free throws a little rowdy
to they absolutely can, but to boo

261
00:21:03.160 --> 00:21:04.839
him to distract him, I didn't
think it was nothing wrong with it.

262
00:21:04.920 --> 00:21:08.359
And Pop, sit down, man. I get it. You're the godfather

263
00:21:08.440 --> 00:21:12.640
of the Spurs. It's your town. You're very opinionated, and I appreciate

264
00:21:12.680 --> 00:21:18.240
your opinion, especially on politics at
times. But you don't tell people that's

265
00:21:18.240 --> 00:21:23.279
paying their money that they stopped booing. That's classless, like what that is

266
00:21:23.359 --> 00:21:30.960
for someone who has won you championship? That's classless? It is. I

267
00:21:30.960 --> 00:21:33.519
don't think it's classless. I think
it's emotional. I don't think it's class

268
00:21:36.319 --> 00:21:44.720
Let's just say I'm trying to think
of another player, Drew Holiday. I'm

269
00:21:44.759 --> 00:21:49.319
just saying that went there and then
win the championship, came Drew Holliday is

270
00:21:49.319 --> 00:21:55.200
going to come back here and play. They're not going to. They're not

271
00:21:55.240 --> 00:22:02.799
going to. I'm not you know
what's because he was you know, he

272
00:22:02.920 --> 00:22:07.559
took this out, but he didn't
ask for trade. Don't matter. Why

273
00:22:07.599 --> 00:22:08.640
is different? Letnna tell why is
different? Lenna take why is different?

274
00:22:10.160 --> 00:22:14.880
Because that's that's a total different category. It's a different sigament. James Harden,

275
00:22:15.799 --> 00:22:22.400
James Harden, when he when he
goes to Philly, he get when

276
00:22:22.400 --> 00:22:25.200
he goes to Philly, he's getting
when he goes to Houston, he's getting

277
00:22:25.240 --> 00:22:27.319
booed. Yeah, he's getting boobed. Why because he asked to leave out

278
00:22:27.319 --> 00:22:30.960
of these places, Kawhi Leonard acts
to leave out of San Antonio, but

279
00:22:33.759 --> 00:22:38.720
championships, but he also left stubbornly. He left, refusing to play,

280
00:22:40.319 --> 00:22:42.960
refusing to come in games, any
kind of bad mouth Pop on his way

281
00:22:42.960 --> 00:22:47.200
out. So I don't think there's
nothing wrong with it. Did you hear

282
00:22:47.240 --> 00:22:49.400
it come out of his mouth?
Bro? He did. He did press

283
00:22:49.400 --> 00:22:55.839
conferences and he was literally indirectly blaming
Pop for his injury, for trying to

284
00:22:55.920 --> 00:23:00.720
play him too much. This is
what Kawhi said. This is what Kawhi

285
00:23:00.920 --> 00:23:04.119
said. This is after Zaza Pachula
stepped on his ankle. But anyway,

286
00:23:04.279 --> 00:23:08.440
yeah, I brought it up again. But anyway, Pop, let it

287
00:23:08.480 --> 00:23:12.440
go, man, Let these fans
pay their money. But you do have

288
00:23:12.480 --> 00:23:15.279
to recognize this man did bring your
city a championship. You don't have to

289
00:23:15.279 --> 00:23:18.440
be too hard on you. I
mean, I'm sure fans recognized it.

290
00:23:18.960 --> 00:23:22.960
Like you said before, they're not
saying obscendities to him. They're just buoying

291
00:23:22.000 --> 00:23:26.079
him. Then that's part of the
game. So so back to your question

292
00:23:26.279 --> 00:23:32.640
about Scoot, I think it's a
disappointment considering he was a top draft pick,

293
00:23:33.000 --> 00:23:34.359
but I don't think you could throw
him the towel on him just yet.

294
00:23:34.519 --> 00:23:37.240
You gotta give him a chance to
develop. You gotta get him chance

295
00:23:37.240 --> 00:23:40.880
to get his mental right. You
got to give him a chance to get

296
00:23:40.920 --> 00:23:44.720
his conditioning down pack. That's what
the G League is for now. Granted,

297
00:23:44.799 --> 00:23:48.160
he's not playing like Victor, he's
not playing like chat Homegrin, he's

298
00:23:48.200 --> 00:23:52.119
not playing like Thompson nor Jordan Hawkins. So he's not even in the top

299
00:23:52.200 --> 00:23:56.720
ten caliber of rookies right now.
I would say if he goes this season

300
00:23:57.200 --> 00:24:00.839
and he doesn't step it up in
this second half of the season, then

301
00:24:00.880 --> 00:24:04.680
you can have conversations on is he
a bust because all the players that came

302
00:24:04.720 --> 00:24:11.240
after him are all doing better.
I'm calling him now bust Anthony Edwards bust

303
00:24:11.359 --> 00:24:19.000
or bust Anthony Edwards from Anthony Bennett. I'm sorry, Anthony Bennett, bust

304
00:24:19.319 --> 00:24:23.960
or worse. I'm just saying,
like, I don't know. I don't

305
00:24:25.000 --> 00:24:27.480
see you being a star in this
league. I see you being a role

306
00:24:27.559 --> 00:24:32.480
player. That makes him a bust
because he's a role player when your top

307
00:24:32.599 --> 00:24:37.160
when your top five, there's a
lot of top five rookies that sucked in

308
00:24:37.200 --> 00:24:41.920
what happened? They're called bust.
Was Darka Malacheck a bust? Yeah?

309
00:24:42.400 --> 00:24:48.319
Was perzingis a bus? Yeah?
Per zingis is dominating guy? What are

310
00:24:48.319 --> 00:24:56.519
you talking about? He's helping or
he's giving Boston in there double double?

311
00:24:56.119 --> 00:25:02.960
Now what year is this for him? But it doesn't matter. So is

312
00:25:02.960 --> 00:25:04.160
he the start of the team.
He didn't even start team. He's the

313
00:25:04.160 --> 00:25:07.440
third option. So he's the thing. He's a third option. Here's why

314
00:25:07.440 --> 00:25:10.240
I disagree with you. To me, if you have a long career,

315
00:25:11.640 --> 00:25:14.720
you can't be a bust. If
you've had a long career, no,

316
00:25:14.839 --> 00:25:22.000
you can't. Because look, if
the expectations are here, okay, and

317
00:25:22.519 --> 00:25:27.839
you don't meet those expectations, bust, bus Yiannis can't be a bust.

318
00:25:29.880 --> 00:25:34.440
Well Yanniannis can't be a bust because
he also wasn't a top five draft pick

319
00:25:34.519 --> 00:25:38.440
exactly. That's my point. Giannis
is a breakout star like Draymond Green,

320
00:25:38.960 --> 00:25:44.160
like Tom Brady. If we're going
sports like and I felt like Aaron Rodgers,

321
00:25:44.519 --> 00:25:48.119
right, these were all players that
had it and they grew into that

322
00:25:48.279 --> 00:25:52.680
greatness. Yeah. So so that's
not a fair assessment. You can't say

323
00:25:52.720 --> 00:25:56.839
they're not a busy weren't top five
exactly. My point is if there's an

324
00:25:56.839 --> 00:26:00.279
expectation when you're a top five pick, when you're a top five pick,

325
00:26:00.319 --> 00:26:06.880
there's an expectation, then your bus
don't. I don't think there's an expectation.

326
00:26:07.079 --> 00:26:10.920
Top ten, top ten got high
expectations. No, I disagree.

327
00:26:11.119 --> 00:26:15.400
I think top three has high five. I think four and five depending on

328
00:26:15.480 --> 00:26:18.880
the year, is like and we'll
take best available. Because the last great

329
00:26:19.000 --> 00:26:23.960
draft, in my opinion, was
a three. That was the last great

330
00:26:25.119 --> 00:26:29.519
draft. There hasn't been any,
let's be honest, outside of the first

331
00:26:29.839 --> 00:26:33.359
the first three, you're like,
who is this? Who is that because

332
00:26:33.400 --> 00:26:40.440
if you look at the NBA ladder
right now, the number three rookie right

333
00:26:40.480 --> 00:26:45.680
now is barely averaging eleven points a
game, but he is averaging a double

334
00:26:45.720 --> 00:26:52.400
double. The number three pick is
averaging thirteen points a game. The number

335
00:26:52.480 --> 00:26:56.880
five is averaging eight points a game. So to call these players a bus

336
00:26:57.079 --> 00:27:00.920
we we are. We are way
too hard on people. Give them a

337
00:27:02.079 --> 00:27:04.440
chance to grow and develop. To
hear my thing, check this out,

338
00:27:04.759 --> 00:27:08.839
take us out. We got top
you said three you pull name me?

339
00:27:10.079 --> 00:27:18.400
Yeah? You so you got top
five? Just your three bron Darko,

340
00:27:18.599 --> 00:27:23.880
Camelo, Anthony, Chris By top
five out of the four the superstars.

341
00:27:25.359 --> 00:27:27.680
I don't know what the hell happened
to Darko? Out of those full five,

342
00:27:29.119 --> 00:27:33.720
out of those five, three of
them are superstars. Three of them

343
00:27:33.759 --> 00:27:40.279
are superstar. Who's not Malachick obviously
and Chris Bosh, he's not a superstar.

344
00:27:40.440 --> 00:27:45.839
No, he's not Chris No?
What I half man and a half

345
00:27:45.880 --> 00:27:52.799
man in Miami? There you go? Here you was he was he the

346
00:27:52.839 --> 00:27:57.039
forget Was he the forgotten player on
those Miami because he was? He?

347
00:27:59.559 --> 00:28:00.880
G You're about a got to dis
yourself. You know why you put the

348
00:28:00.960 --> 00:28:04.799
superstar yes, he was a forgotten
superstar. So so the Miami years,

349
00:28:06.079 --> 00:28:07.680
does that make him a bust because
he wait a minute, let me get

350
00:28:07.920 --> 00:28:12.119
does that make him a bus because
he wasn't the Chris Bosh in Toronto before

351
00:28:12.160 --> 00:28:15.640
he got there he was twenty eighteen? Does it make him a bust because

352
00:28:15.680 --> 00:28:18.720
he wasn't the star in Toronto when
he got with Miami. He was the

353
00:28:18.759 --> 00:28:22.519
star of Miami, I mean in
Toronto. Does listen to the questions,

354
00:28:22.960 --> 00:28:29.799
does it make Bosh a bust because
he wasn't the star in Miami that he

355
00:28:29.920 --> 00:28:34.119
was in Toronto? Okay? So
then why is it that my man from

356
00:28:34.160 --> 00:28:41.599
Boston, Perzingis is a bust because
he wasn't killing his rookie year. He

357
00:28:41.640 --> 00:28:44.559
wasn't killing his rookie year. He
was he was killing his rookie year.

358
00:28:44.640 --> 00:28:48.119
So then why is he a bus
because he was injured. I'm going to

359
00:28:48.200 --> 00:28:51.759
let you finish, but but your
argument doesn't make sense because if that's the

360
00:28:51.799 --> 00:28:53.359
case, what I was doing what
you did to me earlier. If that's

361
00:28:53.400 --> 00:29:00.759
the case, Grant Hill was a
bust. Okay, Yeah, hall of

362
00:29:00.759 --> 00:29:03.680
fame I got, I got a
couple of situations. Think about this,

363
00:29:03.720 --> 00:29:07.279
then, when t J. Foard
was drafted by the Bucks. He'll be

364
00:29:07.319 --> 00:29:11.000
here next week, by the way, in the city he is, I

365
00:29:11.079 --> 00:29:18.559
will be Did he have high did
he have higher expectations? I don't think

366
00:29:18.039 --> 00:29:22.160
they did. Like it was a
top he was a top he was number

367
00:29:22.160 --> 00:29:26.440
eight, was top ten, So
then I said top ten they had was

368
00:29:27.000 --> 00:29:32.440
rich? He had a career?
Was he was? He had high expectations

369
00:29:32.519 --> 00:29:37.279
for he was seven to the bulls, right yep? Okay, so yeah,

370
00:29:37.559 --> 00:29:40.880
hold on second, talk about you
said top ten, right, I

371
00:29:40.880 --> 00:29:44.200
said top five? You said top
three. All these people you're naming or

372
00:29:44.240 --> 00:29:48.559
I'll saw those top five, So
yeah, I don't have high expectations for

373
00:29:48.599 --> 00:29:51.599
them. Hi rich, he had
a good career in Kansas. J fod

374
00:29:51.640 --> 00:29:53.240
wouldn't have high expectations for him to
come out. He was the career.

375
00:29:53.240 --> 00:29:56.000
He was the point guard for the
future. But he wasn't like, I'm

376
00:29:56.000 --> 00:29:59.680
gonna take this team to another level. That's never looked at him like that.

377
00:29:59.680 --> 00:30:03.359
That's how are you kidding me?
Look, that's how everybody looked at

378
00:30:03.400 --> 00:30:07.160
it. It was a high draft
pick. Shout out to t J.

379
00:30:07.359 --> 00:30:11.279
Ford. Miami took Dwayne Wade at
number six. Was he expectation five,

380
00:30:12.559 --> 00:30:15.880
yeah, five, yes, top
five, No, because you know what,

381
00:30:17.559 --> 00:30:21.119
let's be honest. I remember me
and Kesey talked about this the night

382
00:30:21.160 --> 00:30:23.440
before the draft and I said,
d Wade's going five. Kesey said,

383
00:30:23.480 --> 00:30:27.039
d Wade is not going that high
coming out of college. Other than the

384
00:30:27.079 --> 00:30:30.880
Final four, you couldn't shoot.
There was not a lot of height on

385
00:30:30.960 --> 00:30:34.240
Dwayne Wade. It wasn't until the
final four. It wasn't until the n

386
00:30:34.240 --> 00:30:40.880
CUAA tournament and then the day take
you. I had Marquee. I always

387
00:30:40.880 --> 00:30:42.400
went to the games like d Wade
couldn't shoot, So it was like,

388
00:30:42.480 --> 00:30:45.240
well, he's good, but he
can't shoot. But I knew. I

389
00:30:45.319 --> 00:30:48.880
knew he was different because he was
freaking if you went to a game and

390
00:30:48.920 --> 00:30:53.240
you seen him play, he had
NBA athletic ability. Yeah, so you

391
00:30:53.400 --> 00:30:56.319
knew everything else from fall in line
once he got there. But my thing

392
00:30:56.440 --> 00:31:00.480
is, if you're a top five
pick, there's an expation, and if

393
00:31:00.480 --> 00:31:03.920
you don't meet the expectation, you're
a bus like so and so, going

394
00:31:03.920 --> 00:31:08.000
back to what you were saying talking
about all these people like porn Zingis fan,

395
00:31:08.079 --> 00:31:11.400
you brought up port Zingis por Zingi's
first year. He was killing it

396
00:31:11.599 --> 00:31:15.920
running the city. Then after that
injury injury, injury traded him. He

397
00:31:17.000 --> 00:31:21.400
went to Washington and did Andrew Bogett
number one win somewhere else. That's a

398
00:31:21.440 --> 00:31:26.960
bust. That's a bust. So
my thing about that he's a world champion.

399
00:31:29.319 --> 00:31:33.599
The only the only reason, the
only one title would go. He

400
00:31:33.720 --> 00:31:37.920
was a critical feast. The only
reason his career in Milwaukee change was because

401
00:31:37.920 --> 00:31:42.039
it freaking the accident when he failed. Yep, that's that's the personal problem.

402
00:31:44.519 --> 00:31:48.039
You are whoa you are hard on. We just talked about this two

403
00:31:48.039 --> 00:31:51.400
weeks ago about Hall of Fame.
One of the people we talked about was

404
00:31:51.519 --> 00:31:56.160
Garrett was a grand heel and why
is Grandhead not of Hall of Famer because

405
00:31:56.200 --> 00:31:57.559
he was injury prone? Well,
what does that have to do with being

406
00:31:57.599 --> 00:32:01.200
a bust? Those are two different
things. There's a lot of great role

407
00:32:01.720 --> 00:32:07.359
well outs, not great basketball.
Robert is Robert orir bust. He was

408
00:32:07.400 --> 00:32:13.839
never a top five pick. Give
me a top five pick, okay,

409
00:32:14.240 --> 00:32:20.359
Andrew Bogle is a good example.
Daran Williams number three, Darren Williams,

410
00:32:21.079 --> 00:32:22.680
I want to I don't want to
say a bus he went three. Chris

411
00:32:22.680 --> 00:32:28.279
Paul went four. Okay, I
can see why. I can see Raymond

412
00:32:28.279 --> 00:32:36.000
Felton win five. That's a bus. What Charlie Villa win six, that's

413
00:32:36.039 --> 00:32:37.880
a bus. You have to go
over his stass. That's a bus.

414
00:32:38.440 --> 00:32:45.240
Anthony Bennett, Greg Oden, Sam
Buie Brown, those are those are those

415
00:32:45.319 --> 00:32:52.799
are horrific. Jason Williams. Those
bust, even though his injury killed him

416
00:32:52.160 --> 00:32:59.160
later a bus. Christian Laightner wasn't
a bust. Christian Laightner, I think,

417
00:32:59.559 --> 00:33:01.279
but he wasn't a bus. He
was okay, okay, he was

418
00:33:01.960 --> 00:33:07.119
Michael Kidd Gil Chris two thousand,
two thousand and four season. Think about

419
00:33:07.119 --> 00:33:13.240
this draft flash. That was d
White Howard number one, Mecca ok Ford

420
00:33:13.319 --> 00:33:16.319
number two. Whatever happened to him. But remember he dropped his jersey because

421
00:33:16.319 --> 00:33:21.960
he didn't want to play for Port
Philly. Remember at the press conference he

422
00:33:22.000 --> 00:33:24.720
got drafted, he held up his
jersey and just dropped it at the end

423
00:33:24.759 --> 00:33:30.079
of the press conference like something like
that bus because he knew to be traded.

424
00:33:30.240 --> 00:33:36.000
Yeah, whatever happened here. Ben
Gordon's who Ben Gordon was not a

425
00:33:36.039 --> 00:33:39.240
bush buzz due to injuries, due
to injuries, but it's still bust.

426
00:33:39.799 --> 00:33:45.519
Sean Livston champion, bus champion with
a great shot. Bust he raised,

427
00:33:45.559 --> 00:33:55.039
wrecked his career. Devin Harris bust. You know what funny? He was

428
00:33:55.079 --> 00:34:00.400
five. Devin Harris was number five, went to Dallas. He went to

429
00:34:00.519 --> 00:34:04.000
Dallas, won the championship. That
was when when they beat Dwayne Wade.

430
00:34:05.000 --> 00:34:07.480
So he was the point guarded.
Let me ask you a question. Ask

431
00:34:07.519 --> 00:34:12.559
your question. What what makes Devon
Harris a bus? Devon Harris bus No

432
00:34:12.719 --> 00:34:16.239
All Star games? He did?
How many? He said? Devin who?

433
00:34:16.360 --> 00:34:23.480
Devin Harris, Yes, bust journey
man? Is how was he a

434
00:34:23.519 --> 00:34:27.440
journey man? Is he not a
journeyman at the end of his career?

435
00:34:28.559 --> 00:34:30.320
Throughout his career, No, he
played the team he was with. He

436
00:34:30.360 --> 00:34:37.239
got traded or release that he started
getting injuries in like year ten. Bust.

437
00:34:37.719 --> 00:34:43.440
Before that, Dallas was not letting
him go. Are you are you

438
00:34:43.480 --> 00:34:46.760
kidding me? A championship by the
way, I get it. He from

439
00:34:46.800 --> 00:34:51.599
the city. I get it from
the city. Harris, takeaway, take

440
00:34:51.599 --> 00:34:58.320
away your yo, your personal feelings
for these people. Bust. All right,

441
00:34:58.519 --> 00:35:01.840
future NBA players, if you're listening, if you come out top five,

442
00:35:02.119 --> 00:35:06.199
you better be putting up thirty and
ten. Otherwise, he is gonna

443
00:35:06.280 --> 00:35:08.079
dog you in the barhop. I'm
not saying you gotta put in thirty and

444
00:35:08.159 --> 00:35:13.079
ten. I'm not even saying that
you have to be I'm saying you have

445
00:35:13.159 --> 00:35:15.320
to be somewhat. I'm saying you
gotta be a superstar. I'm saying you

446
00:35:15.320 --> 00:35:19.880
have to be somewhat of an All
Star caliber player. Y'all name all these

447
00:35:19.920 --> 00:35:23.639
people that ain't did nothing. Dollar
was drafted number nine, I said,

448
00:35:23.679 --> 00:35:30.079
top five, and y'all was just
going in on me to I said,

449
00:35:30.119 --> 00:35:32.079
Iggy at least hall of fame.
No, no, no role player.

450
00:35:32.960 --> 00:35:37.480
Listen, if you're giving Iggy the
Hall of Fame, but you're calling some

451
00:35:37.559 --> 00:35:43.360
of these people bus. I questioned
your basketball. I don't know why.

452
00:35:43.480 --> 00:35:49.920
I definitely do Michael Beasley. It's
a sad bus bus bust. So back

453
00:35:49.960 --> 00:35:58.519
to your question, OJ Mayo again, sad for the bus. Russell Westbrook

454
00:35:58.559 --> 00:36:00.559
I was just not a bus.
But he's at the end of his career,

455
00:36:00.719 --> 00:36:04.719
he's not doing anything, and now
he's a journey man because he get

456
00:36:05.280 --> 00:36:08.000
what you said. You're right,
I say, your whole career, not

457
00:36:08.239 --> 00:36:13.239
him going to the NBA Finals,
All Star All NBA Team, Like the

458
00:36:13.320 --> 00:36:15.480
list goes on with Russell. Now
is it in his career is looking like

459
00:36:15.559 --> 00:36:22.280
booty? Yes, it's looking like
dumpster fire. Throwed in the garbage Kevin

460
00:36:22.320 --> 00:36:30.519
Love. Of course not now Gallari? Who the Nali Gallinari? He was

461
00:36:30.559 --> 00:36:35.760
just playing with a bust. So
so let's bring it back home, Scoop.

462
00:36:36.000 --> 00:36:39.360
Is too soon to give that man
a bus titles. Let him play

463
00:36:39.400 --> 00:36:43.280
out the season and let's see how
he rebounds from his injury. I don't

464
00:36:43.280 --> 00:36:46.199
think I don't think you really know
what the NBA career is Zion the bus

465
00:36:46.760 --> 00:36:55.199
close, but not yet. Zion
is out here playing John Wall. That's

466
00:36:55.199 --> 00:37:00.519
a tough one. Why he hasn't
done anything more than half these people we

467
00:37:00.639 --> 00:37:04.480
named? But that's oh yeah,
haven't done anything? Why is that?

468
00:37:04.559 --> 00:37:08.079
Oh my god, Devin Harris had
a better career than him, if that's

469
00:37:08.119 --> 00:37:12.199
the technicality of it. Did he
know? Yeah, alf the players we

470
00:37:12.320 --> 00:37:15.039
named had a better career. But
I think about this. Here's my thing,

471
00:37:15.800 --> 00:37:17.639
Devin, you said, Devin Harris, Yeah, Devin Harris has how

472
00:37:17.639 --> 00:37:21.840
many has been on how many teams? A lot? In fact, they

473
00:37:22.280 --> 00:37:25.159
they made a statement that he could
get a real estate license because he owned

474
00:37:25.159 --> 00:37:29.840
a home in everything time where he
played. I think he had to play

475
00:37:29.920 --> 00:37:32.840
for the Bucks at one point too, didn't he like a minute? Yeah?

476
00:37:34.079 --> 00:37:36.519
Yeah. So my thing about that
is, I'm like, I'm calling

477
00:37:36.559 --> 00:37:38.400
these people bus and stuff like that. And this sounds a little harsh,

478
00:37:38.440 --> 00:37:44.559
but I'm taking away my personal feelings. I just feel like, if you're

479
00:37:44.559 --> 00:37:47.800
a Time five player, you should
have some type of career we can stand

480
00:37:47.880 --> 00:37:52.280
on, some type of something like, oh, okay, he did this,

481
00:37:52.280 --> 00:37:54.519
this and this. You're talking about
Andrew bog and Andrew Bugles. What

482
00:37:54.559 --> 00:37:58.000
does your career stats have to be
for you not to be a bush?

483
00:37:59.199 --> 00:38:02.159
Chris Bosh say he's not a bus. I'll say, Chris Boss is not

484
00:38:02.199 --> 00:38:07.239
a bus. Before he came to
Miami twenty and ten, I forgot what

485
00:38:07.320 --> 00:38:08.880
draft pick he was, but he
was the man in Toronto. Was he

486
00:38:08.920 --> 00:38:14.639
by himself? Yes he was.
But I feel like if you are a

487
00:38:14.679 --> 00:38:20.599
person, or if you're the if
you're that guy on that team, then

488
00:38:20.639 --> 00:38:24.840
you're not a bust like like him. Going to Miami was just him getting

489
00:38:24.920 --> 00:38:30.000
up with other superstars that he was
a superstar in himself in his own right.

490
00:38:30.639 --> 00:38:34.639
Kevin Love was a superstar in his
own right before he came to Cleveland

491
00:38:35.079 --> 00:38:40.119
is mante ellis a bus close.
So, but you can't sit here and

492
00:38:40.159 --> 00:38:45.239
tell me, like all these guys
deserve the title of in busses when we

493
00:38:45.360 --> 00:38:49.440
when we put when you put bust
with a player, you think, oh,

494
00:38:49.519 --> 00:38:52.480
use the number one draft pick and
you averaging five points a game.

495
00:38:52.199 --> 00:38:57.800
But it's there. To me,
the criteria should be widening because we widening

496
00:38:57.840 --> 00:39:00.760
for everything else, like the Hall
of Fame in itself. We don't know

497
00:39:00.800 --> 00:39:05.320
what the quateria is for Hall of
Fame. But all these people who are

498
00:39:05.320 --> 00:39:07.400
in the Hall of Fame and who
shooting not in the Hall of Fame,

499
00:39:07.519 --> 00:39:09.320
Like why is this person there?
Why is this person there? Like why

500
00:39:09.360 --> 00:39:14.000
is it this person? Why is
this person holding the title of a bus.

501
00:39:14.199 --> 00:39:17.840
That's because you're judging Hall of Fame
off of NBA alone and not everything

502
00:39:17.880 --> 00:39:21.440
else. I'm judging it. Yeah, you're right, I'm judging it off

503
00:39:21.480 --> 00:39:22.960
what you did in the NBA.
I'm not judging it. And then on

504
00:39:23.000 --> 00:39:27.079
top of that, we can throw
a little world play in there, but

505
00:39:27.119 --> 00:39:30.360
I don't care what you did in
the Olympics. So Kesey to his question,

506
00:39:30.599 --> 00:39:35.159
is school Henderson a bust or not? It's too early to determine that.

507
00:39:35.800 --> 00:39:39.199
Okay, Zeke, and you're calling
him a bus bust capitol B.

508
00:39:39.920 --> 00:39:43.400
I don't want to say capitol B. I said bus, just said bus.

509
00:39:44.119 --> 00:39:45.920
And okay, let me ask a
question. Let me ask you a

510
00:39:45.000 --> 00:39:50.760
question. So and then we're gonna
did the topic. But let's say school

511
00:39:50.800 --> 00:39:58.280
Henderson. He's he turned this eight
into twelve. He's going from twelve five

512
00:39:58.360 --> 00:40:01.719
boards a game, maybe three a
six. He turned the thirty six to

513
00:40:01.840 --> 00:40:07.639
forty six. He's heard the nine
point five in the thirty. Is he

514
00:40:07.679 --> 00:40:14.599
not a bust? If this continues
over two seasons, then yes, I'm

515
00:40:14.599 --> 00:40:17.079
saying he up and all the stats. I would call him a bus after

516
00:40:17.159 --> 00:40:22.320
year two simply because you were drafted
because they thought you could change a franchise

517
00:40:22.679 --> 00:40:25.679
when you were drafted to be the
franchise player. So if you go in

518
00:40:25.760 --> 00:40:30.760
year two like that, then you
have to start saying, Scoot, I

519
00:40:30.800 --> 00:40:34.440
don't know that you are the man
or can get this done. Then you

520
00:40:34.440 --> 00:40:38.199
can start having the bust conversations.
But at fourteen games in, that's harsh.

521
00:40:38.360 --> 00:40:45.039
Blake Griffin, I don't think Blake
was a bus because Blake changed the

522
00:40:45.079 --> 00:40:51.440
franchise. He made Duncan relevant again. He made the All Star Game relevant

523
00:40:51.519 --> 00:40:53.079
again, and he was a killer. They just couldn't win the title.

524
00:40:53.280 --> 00:41:01.039
Who was a killer? So yeah, I'm not calling everybody bus, but

525
00:41:01.079 --> 00:41:05.440
some of these people bringing up bus
you have more busting when you go back

526
00:41:05.440 --> 00:41:10.000
and listen. Like Dang, I
called him theer bus. Kenya Martin close

527
00:41:10.239 --> 00:41:15.639
good role player, close, close
to a bust. He was drafted pretty

528
00:41:15.679 --> 00:41:20.280
high. People were dubbing him the
next Lebron James. He was number one.

529
00:41:20.800 --> 00:41:28.480
People were Martina Kenya Martin was never
a time Lebron. Hold up,

530
00:41:28.480 --> 00:41:32.960
well, hold up, no,
he wasn't. Wait he's on the Gill

531
00:41:34.079 --> 00:41:38.559
Show. Yeah, I'm thinking of
someone. I'm sorry, You're right,

532
00:41:38.639 --> 00:41:42.800
You're right, the one, the
one I mean Lebron was twelve when Kenya

533
00:41:43.920 --> 00:41:45.159
I confused the player. I'll let
you know the player I'm talking. Key

534
00:41:45.159 --> 00:41:50.440
Martin came two thousand. Bron came
in two thousand and three because he played

535
00:41:50.440 --> 00:41:53.599
with him and his daddy, I
mean his son. He uh, but

536
00:41:53.880 --> 00:41:58.840
Keny Martin was on his way out. Yeah kind of no, he would

537
00:41:58.880 --> 00:42:02.360
drafted two thousand. Hmm. I
want to say Elton brand I want to

538
00:42:02.400 --> 00:42:06.639
say no, because he's been to
that biggest and bigger Nations player Elton Bran.

539
00:42:07.679 --> 00:42:14.239
I'm sorry they were calling Tyson Chandler
the next Lebron. Yes, they

540
00:42:14.280 --> 00:42:20.639
were, because then he came in
after Lebron. Tyson Chandler came next after

541
00:42:21.320 --> 00:42:27.079
Tyson Chan. The movie Coach Carter, there's a player in there called ty

542
00:42:27.280 --> 00:42:31.960
Crane that they changed the name,
but the character of the player that they

543
00:42:32.039 --> 00:42:37.960
held as the next Lebron James was
based on Tyson chanper Tyson Chandler was seven

544
00:42:37.039 --> 00:42:43.840
foot how I don't know. People
called you. People call it Jordan the

545
00:42:43.880 --> 00:42:47.719
next. People call Lebron the next
Jordan. What's your Pointandler plays center.

546
00:42:47.880 --> 00:42:52.159
It don't matter. You can still
be held the next great player. I

547
00:42:52.199 --> 00:42:54.239
don't think it's in terms of,
oh, the next Lebron. You're gonna

548
00:42:54.239 --> 00:42:59.719
play small forward, the power forward. Chandler before Lebron, he was in

549
00:43:00.119 --> 00:43:05.719
look it up draft us a man, Well you're even drafted. Uh,

550
00:43:05.960 --> 00:43:08.880
let's find the draft here. I
know, I don't know what this type

551
00:43:08.920 --> 00:43:14.039
of Chandler was. Maybe a top
five. About to find out Elton brand

552
00:43:15.320 --> 00:43:22.400
bust or not bust? He was
number one. Michael Oliver Candy bust.

553
00:43:23.000 --> 00:43:27.239
Okay, I'll stand corrected again.
It's not Ty Chandler. Oh my god,

554
00:43:27.639 --> 00:43:30.440
Chandler was in O one. Chandler
was in O one, not Lebron

555
00:43:30.519 --> 00:43:37.159
was three. But it's it's Chandler
a bus Yeah roh. He was one

556
00:43:37.159 --> 00:43:40.920
of the most dominant power forwards of
that eraror centers of that error. Zeke,

557
00:43:42.000 --> 00:43:45.880
come on, man, you are
hard on people. Do this with

558
00:43:45.920 --> 00:43:50.719
you? What does the same draft
class as Paul gasoul same draft class?

559
00:43:50.719 --> 00:43:54.519
Well, Fammie Brown win number one
thanks to Michael who she got easy,

560
00:43:54.840 --> 00:44:00.119
so he can before we move on, that is not tig You want to

561
00:44:00.159 --> 00:44:07.440
go to the Jordan's The Jordan class, Sam Buie is a bust. No,

562
00:44:07.559 --> 00:44:15.360
obviously, go Cheorge Berkeley, goos. It was good. No,

563
00:44:15.559 --> 00:44:19.800
you crazy? He was killing with
he was killing. He was killing in

564
00:44:20.239 --> 00:44:22.559
in his school. He wasn't killing
with the rockets. He was a role

565
00:44:22.599 --> 00:44:29.760
player. Sam Perkins, Sam left
handed? I know you was about saying

566
00:44:29.800 --> 00:44:35.239
Perkins was I feel like I feel
like him? Care him and Thorpe their

567
00:44:35.239 --> 00:44:38.559
play declined when they went to the
NBA because they were playing roles. So

568
00:44:38.599 --> 00:44:40.719
I don't want to say they are
bust. I want to say so,

569
00:44:40.760 --> 00:44:45.280
then why can't you say that about
players now that they roll change when they

570
00:44:45.320 --> 00:44:49.519
came to the league because their expectations
are high. Did you take the expectation

571
00:44:49.599 --> 00:44:52.760
want to hide them coming in?
Yes and no. Just to clarify,

572
00:44:52.920 --> 00:44:55.119
you were playing with greater players.
Just to clarify, here you go.

573
00:44:55.400 --> 00:45:01.840
Fun fact in the movie Coach Carter
high Crane is based off of Tyson Chandler.

574
00:45:02.679 --> 00:45:06.719
That doesn't take away for people to
be a buzz I'm just saying people

575
00:45:06.719 --> 00:45:09.039
were calling him the next Lebron James
in the movie and find that article find

576
00:45:09.480 --> 00:45:15.199
compared him Lebron Jaks. They were
calling him the next Lebron James based on

577
00:45:15.280 --> 00:45:21.079
their high school play, Tyson Chandler
high School the league before Lebron's. I

578
00:45:21.079 --> 00:45:23.599
don't know, but remember but remember
even when Lebron was in high school,

579
00:45:23.639 --> 00:45:28.679
players after him, he was better
than players that were older than him.

580
00:45:29.000 --> 00:45:32.320
In ninth grade, people were calling
Lebron the next big thing. It doesn't

581
00:45:32.400 --> 00:45:36.159
just because I'm older than you that
that mean I'm not the next whatever.

582
00:45:37.519 --> 00:45:38.840
While you're looking at me, I
didn't say it. Don't look at me.

583
00:45:38.880 --> 00:45:43.039
I didn't say it. Shoot,
I'm just give it to you.

584
00:45:43.079 --> 00:45:47.920
What he's so scoop you said he's
a buzz. Kesey says too soon.

585
00:45:47.960 --> 00:45:51.119
I say too soon, man,
lighten up on, I got one more

586
00:45:51.159 --> 00:45:53.480
class for you and I'm done.
Seriously, we need to change the topic

587
00:45:53.559 --> 00:46:01.039
of this buster. Nope, don't
act me obvious question. Marcus Canby can

588
00:46:01.159 --> 00:46:07.039
be busted. I like mar I
like you. Man injury. Can't call

589
00:46:07.119 --> 00:46:14.880
him a bus injury, bus injury, may great role player, good roa.

590
00:46:15.039 --> 00:46:17.320
No, you know what, not
a bust? Why what did he

591
00:46:17.400 --> 00:46:22.840
do the NBA? What did he
do NBA before he was traded everywhere he

592
00:46:22.920 --> 00:46:27.480
was? He left the NBA though, But what did he do that makes

593
00:46:27.559 --> 00:46:30.199
him so great from all the other
players you call a bus from from him?

594
00:46:30.280 --> 00:46:34.760
Size, the handles, the handles, him averaging twenty and ten and

595
00:46:34.880 --> 00:46:39.400
the twenty win with Minnesota. You
made that up that man ain't never averaged

596
00:46:39.440 --> 00:46:47.440
no double duble. Wow, you
really look it up. Yeah, there

597
00:46:47.480 --> 00:46:51.639
was no double double. He would
have been in every n VP conversation.

598
00:46:51.920 --> 00:46:54.360
He has never been in the MVP
conversation. Mar Barry Steph. You said

599
00:46:54.360 --> 00:46:59.840
Stefan Marlberry averaged a double double win
because he has never been in the MVP

600
00:47:00.079 --> 00:47:04.119
conversation. He has never led the
league in any position at all. He

601
00:47:04.199 --> 00:47:09.760
had handles. He had handles and
a bad temper. Oh, how dare

602
00:47:09.760 --> 00:47:13.519
you? Okay? So here we
go. He was traded for real and

603
00:47:13.599 --> 00:47:17.360
thank you Milwaukee. So when he
was in okay, So here we go.

604
00:47:19.000 --> 00:47:22.920
He was drafted eighth nine, traded
for real. Rookie year horrible,

605
00:47:23.599 --> 00:47:28.679
and he gradually got better. Did
he average a double double? He averaged

606
00:47:28.679 --> 00:47:30.679
I'm sorry, he did not average
the double He averaged twenty one and eight,

607
00:47:31.320 --> 00:47:36.639
nineteen and nine, twenty and eight, twenty two and eight, twenty

608
00:47:36.679 --> 00:47:38.199
and eight, twenty three and seven. You're right, it's not a double.

609
00:47:38.239 --> 00:47:40.519
You know it's not a double double. He's not a double double.

610
00:47:40.559 --> 00:47:45.239
I'm sorry, But you call him
a bus. I might call him a

611
00:47:45.239 --> 00:47:50.360
bus. I said close, And
you talk about me being the gym because

612
00:47:50.400 --> 00:47:53.840
I'm tight with money. Now,
one more Anton Walker and then I'm done.

613
00:47:53.920 --> 00:47:58.320
I don't think Walker was a buzz
He's a champion. He made Boston.

614
00:47:58.480 --> 00:48:01.639
He made Boston man. He made
Boston. He's, at the end

615
00:48:01.679 --> 00:48:07.800
of the bitch, champion. He
made Boston relevant. And the only reason

616
00:48:07.840 --> 00:48:12.119
I brought this class up is because
you know who was else in that class?

617
00:48:12.199 --> 00:48:15.719
Right? The mamba. What was
it? Yeah? Close, a

618
00:48:15.639 --> 00:48:21.840
low key real close. Kobe was
real close. He was thirteen in that

619
00:48:21.960 --> 00:48:25.840
draft. He was real close what
he was he was He was number one

620
00:48:27.039 --> 00:48:32.320
thirteen of that draft and he became
a superstar like Giannis, number thirteen said,

621
00:48:32.760 --> 00:48:36.159
and guess who else was right behind
him though? In that draft class

622
00:48:36.480 --> 00:48:43.440
Pejo Strajakovic not a bus, Steve
Nash instead of bus, Jermaine O'Neill not

623
00:48:43.519 --> 00:48:49.639
a bus. Close, Jermaine O'Neil. Bust but not top five top five

624
00:48:50.039 --> 00:48:54.079
if you're listening. Changed the episode
titled to bust or Not Anyways, let's

625
00:48:54.119 --> 00:49:00.079
move on, Jesus, so we
got we got three teams that are currently

626
00:49:00.719 --> 00:49:05.039
Wait, I'm sorry before you go
on, because you're saying bust or not.

627
00:49:05.440 --> 00:49:09.119
We have an injury to report.
Poor Ziggiz is out for a week

628
00:49:09.280 --> 00:49:17.239
or two due to a calf injury. And it's it's funny because it depends

629
00:49:17.239 --> 00:49:22.360
on what you're talking about next day. Poor zingis injury bro, he is

630
00:49:22.440 --> 00:49:29.519
injury pros. He's a bust alone
anyways, Minnesota timber Woods are eleven and

631
00:49:29.559 --> 00:49:32.320
three. Okay, see Thunder eleven
and four. Orlando Magic are eleven and

632
00:49:32.440 --> 00:49:37.400
five. Do you see any of
these three teams making the playoffs or play

633
00:49:37.440 --> 00:49:45.599
in too soon to tail? Too
soon to tail, because Minnesota, you

634
00:49:45.639 --> 00:49:50.840
can. You can take a nap
all you want. We know we've seen

635
00:49:51.480 --> 00:49:55.960
teams that started one ended nine play
offs at all. We've also seen teams

636
00:49:57.000 --> 00:50:00.639
go eight. I'm asking y'all because
I'm what I'm want to what I want

637
00:50:00.639 --> 00:50:05.519
to try to see is an eyeball
test of these teams and what do you

638
00:50:05.559 --> 00:50:08.079
think? Well, my only thing
is i just want you to remember how

639
00:50:08.599 --> 00:50:14.239
last season went. Yeah, the
Lakers, I'm not talking. I'm not

640
00:50:14.320 --> 00:50:20.239
even gonna talk about the Lakers.
I'm all years now. The Utah Jazz,

641
00:50:20.320 --> 00:50:24.440
right, good example, they were
on fire to start the season that

642
00:50:24.519 --> 00:50:30.639
first twenty five games. Like I
said, players play good, But when

643
00:50:30.679 --> 00:50:37.400
you get to the games thirty thirty
five, forty forty five, fifty,

644
00:50:37.960 --> 00:50:43.039
that's when that's when you feel it. That's true, that's when things get

645
00:50:43.119 --> 00:50:45.239
real. But I think did Dad
did not have like that? When you

646
00:50:45.360 --> 00:50:51.039
know who is built for the NBA? Do they have a lot of injuries

647
00:50:51.079 --> 00:50:55.199
though? Oh Utah, No,
No, they bust their team up shortly

648
00:50:55.239 --> 00:50:59.559
after though. So I'm gonna say
this I'm agree with Kesey one hundred and

649
00:50:59.599 --> 00:51:02.159
fifty for saying I still think it's
too soon. But out of all those

650
00:51:02.199 --> 00:51:05.880
teams, Minnesota has the best thing. I just feel like it's a copboy

651
00:51:05.960 --> 00:51:09.519
when we if you say this in
game fifty or they built for this,

652
00:51:10.119 --> 00:51:15.760
it's fifty games in either by then
it's either put up like this were looking

653
00:51:15.760 --> 00:51:22.280
at trade. Minnesota has the roster. They should have the roster to compete.

654
00:51:23.280 --> 00:51:28.719
They won't, but they have the
roster to go the long haul.

655
00:51:28.800 --> 00:51:32.079
They should. Anthony Edwards is probably
the most improved player, not that that's

656
00:51:32.119 --> 00:51:37.599
saying anything because he's killing. They
have their new version of the Twin Towers.

657
00:51:37.639 --> 00:51:40.199
I'm not a go Bear fan.
I don't think it'll last. But

658
00:51:40.400 --> 00:51:45.559
Minnesota, out of all these teams, to me, have the best chance,

659
00:51:45.880 --> 00:51:49.239
and I wouldn't find seeing it.
I can see I can see,

660
00:51:49.280 --> 00:51:53.159
okay see in Minnesota making it,
making the playoffs, and I guess,

661
00:51:53.159 --> 00:51:57.400
but I don't see Orlando. I
think they're still young. They have they

662
00:51:57.400 --> 00:52:00.360
have some good pieces, they have
some young pieces, but I don't see

663
00:52:00.360 --> 00:52:02.880
them making like the playing I don't
see them making no noise in the East.

664
00:52:04.280 --> 00:52:07.320
Yeah, I think they're just young
and athletic and stuff like that.

665
00:52:07.360 --> 00:52:13.840
Who Orlando. Yeah, but as
far as okay See and uh Minnesota,

666
00:52:14.280 --> 00:52:19.159
I think they have to They third
in the East right now. They've beaten

667
00:52:19.159 --> 00:52:25.199
the Lakers, They've beaten the Bucks. Magic, they're playing, let's beat

668
00:52:25.280 --> 00:52:30.559
quite a few teams. I'm sorry. They're an nd season tournament. So

669
00:52:30.199 --> 00:52:36.760
to say they are only what you
say, they only have a little bit

670
00:52:36.800 --> 00:52:39.840
of noise right now is a little
harsh, hated number three in the East.

671
00:52:40.280 --> 00:52:45.920
I just say, I don't see
them going to like the playing there

672
00:52:45.960 --> 00:52:49.960
on the sixth six game winning streak. Yeah, but like I said before,

673
00:52:50.000 --> 00:52:52.480
they're young, athletic. They have
a good team over there. I

674
00:52:52.480 --> 00:52:57.400
think they're still missing some pieces as
far as like they got. They got

675
00:52:57.480 --> 00:53:01.960
Joe Ingles as the little veteran RANPA. Yeah. So like I feel like

676
00:53:02.559 --> 00:53:07.719
I'm not sitting here saying, like, you know, here they're the team

677
00:53:07.800 --> 00:53:12.440
to beat. I'm just saying that
they you know, they got a nice

678
00:53:12.800 --> 00:53:16.360
like a little squad. In fact, the Orlando Magics are tied with the

679
00:53:16.360 --> 00:53:21.599
Phoenix Suns for the longest winning streak
right now, six winning streak. They

680
00:53:21.599 --> 00:53:30.239
beat the Hot Pacers Pacers are selectively
hot. They beat Denver the first difference

681
00:53:30.280 --> 00:53:35.199
going through some struggles. I think
folks are starting to see they beat Boston.

682
00:53:36.079 --> 00:53:39.559
I think folks are starting to see
that Murray and they just bet Boston

683
00:53:39.559 --> 00:53:43.039
the other night as they just put
the claps on the buck. I think

684
00:53:43.320 --> 00:53:47.679
people are starting to see how Murray
is critical to the success of the Denver

685
00:53:47.760 --> 00:53:52.039
next I think we all knew that. I didn't. I did, I

686
00:53:52.079 --> 00:53:54.280
didn't, because that's why they haven't
been one year. They have a healthy

687
00:53:54.360 --> 00:53:58.079
Murray, they win a championship.
That is not a coincidence. Now,

688
00:53:58.119 --> 00:54:01.159
does Murray get all to just do
he's supposed to get? No. I

689
00:54:01.159 --> 00:54:04.360
think he gets a bonus this year
if he makes the All Star Game.

690
00:54:04.360 --> 00:54:07.800
Probably won't happen. He won't because
he won't. He's injured. You know

691
00:54:07.840 --> 00:54:12.239
what I'm saying. He's not even
an All Star Game. Okay, but

692
00:54:12.320 --> 00:54:15.199
he won't even be outble for first
or I'm sorry, all NBA team,

693
00:54:15.199 --> 00:54:17.159
I see what you said. He's
not eligible and you have to play.

694
00:54:17.639 --> 00:54:22.599
He's been out, he's been out, he's eligible. He's been out like

695
00:54:22.639 --> 00:54:28.159
game ten though they're in like game
seventeen. Yeah, next week we'll be

696
00:54:28.159 --> 00:54:32.320
doing protections. Yeah, mister twenty
twenty five games. Yeah, but no,

697
00:54:32.480 --> 00:54:37.400
I I didn't. I gotta start
paying attention to Orlando now since y'all

698
00:54:37.400 --> 00:54:40.440
mentioned that, I see the record. Uh, but I gotta start paying

699
00:54:40.440 --> 00:54:44.199
attention to him. I don't think
it'll last because the East is deep.

700
00:54:45.000 --> 00:54:47.679
A lot of a lot of Claillers
in the Eastern Conference. So we'll see.

701
00:54:47.760 --> 00:54:52.920
Time will tell, John will tell. And then before we get up

702
00:54:52.920 --> 00:54:58.519
out of here, we went to
the bus game on Friday, watched the

703
00:54:58.519 --> 00:55:05.960
Milwaukee Bucks barely get past the Washington
Wizards, and an interesting conversation came up,

704
00:55:06.000 --> 00:55:10.320
as it always does. Is Jordan
Poole the best player on the Washington

705
00:55:10.320 --> 00:55:15.079
Wizards? Kesey says, no,
cac would you like to give the people

706
00:55:15.079 --> 00:55:22.039
your reasoning. Kuzma is the best
player on that roster. I'm taking Kuzma

707
00:55:22.039 --> 00:55:27.320
over Pool all day. Now,
here's my thing about that. I understand

708
00:55:27.320 --> 00:55:31.920
where you're coming from. I do. I do, because Kuzma is probably

709
00:55:31.960 --> 00:55:36.599
the best all around player on that
team. But from what I've seen,

710
00:55:37.320 --> 00:55:43.000
it's Jordan Poole's team. This is
Jordan Pool. I've seen him getting a

711
00:55:43.039 --> 00:55:52.280
lot of minutes we go beause at
the end of the games, who was

712
00:55:52.280 --> 00:55:54.719
on the bench and who was in
the game, who got the shot and

713
00:55:54.719 --> 00:55:59.719
who didn't one of just because he's
a clown and that's probably why he went

714
00:55:59.760 --> 00:56:01.039
in it for the last two minutes. He's a clown. Let's just call

715
00:56:01.079 --> 00:56:05.360
what it. Jordan Pull is a
clown. And if I had the SoundBite,

716
00:56:05.360 --> 00:56:08.719
I would KG won him out the
league. And my thing is,

717
00:56:08.800 --> 00:56:10.840
I'm not mad at him. I'm
not I'm not saying he should be out

718
00:56:10.840 --> 00:56:15.039
the league. I'm just seeing like
Jordan Poor needs a reality check. And

719
00:56:15.079 --> 00:56:19.480
if the reality check is him getting
sit down to the G League, that's

720
00:56:19.519 --> 00:56:22.360
the reality check he needs. But
he needs a reality check to say,

721
00:56:22.400 --> 00:56:27.280
hey, you can't do what these
guys do unless you produce us wins.

722
00:56:27.519 --> 00:56:30.599
I don't care you averaging twenty points
a game. I don't care. I'm

723
00:56:31.760 --> 00:56:34.880
I don't care if you averaging twenty
points a game. I don't care if

724
00:56:34.920 --> 00:56:37.800
you averaging twenty five a game.
My point is, you can't do If

725
00:56:37.800 --> 00:56:44.199
you can't produce with w's and get
us wins, you're you're useless. And

726
00:56:44.280 --> 00:56:46.960
to Sex's point, here's what KG
had to say bringing Chimp environment in here.

727
00:56:47.400 --> 00:56:51.000
You learned just all the state.
Nigga, this what you just what

728
00:56:51.039 --> 00:56:54.400
you're Oh, that's what I'm saying. Niggas own up professionals. Bro,

729
00:56:54.840 --> 00:56:58.800
you gotside because you went to fall
in line. Bro, That's what I'm

730
00:56:58.800 --> 00:57:01.719
saying. Niggas like this don't belong
to all league. Bro, he does

731
00:57:01.800 --> 00:57:06.880
not belong in the league as a
he's the head of a team. Pete,

732
00:57:07.440 --> 00:57:08.880
Nah, I don't want my son
out of know Nigga like that you

733
00:57:08.880 --> 00:57:12.679
say talking to teammates. Shut up, my nigga. That's my team.

734
00:57:12.800 --> 00:57:17.000
I got it Nigga through the town
schnop like like, Bro, you can

735
00:57:17.039 --> 00:57:20.880
say what they want about it.
I ain't never disrespect the game. Ain't

736
00:57:20.920 --> 00:57:25.480
never disrespected the position of being.
You know, they bringing chimp environment in

737
00:57:25.519 --> 00:57:30.239
him. So you know what I'm
saying, I apologize for the language.

738
00:57:30.880 --> 00:57:34.480
My thing is, like like KG
said, I'm gonna say he should be

739
00:57:34.559 --> 00:57:37.320
he shouldn't be long in the league. I just think he needs reality check.

740
00:57:37.519 --> 00:57:39.280
You gat he got money, now, he got a championship. He

741
00:57:39.920 --> 00:57:47.760
acts like anybody tell him nothing that
Instagram models I did seem anyway. But

742
00:57:47.840 --> 00:57:52.320
the point is my thing about it
is it is I think about it.

743
00:57:52.320 --> 00:57:55.599
He just needs to reality He doesn't
need a reality check. I'm gonna say,

744
00:57:55.679 --> 00:57:59.079
like this, Jordan Poole, but
I don't think I'm sorry, I

745
00:57:59.119 --> 00:58:01.280
don't think he's he's the best player
on Washington Wizards. I'm sorry. EASi

746
00:58:01.360 --> 00:58:07.880
League twice on Sunday. No he's
not. Kuzma is and and gameplay shows

747
00:58:07.159 --> 00:58:15.320
who's the better. And like KG
said, you come from a championship pedigree

748
00:58:15.320 --> 00:58:20.119
and you come bring this in which
state said you came a critical piece of

749
00:58:20.320 --> 00:58:27.519
you come bring this backyard Ali basketball
to Washington. Come on, Pool,

750
00:58:28.559 --> 00:58:31.239
you you can be he can be
better than Cools, But right now,

751
00:58:31.280 --> 00:58:37.280
currently in my books, he's not
better than Cools. Let me ask you

752
00:58:37.280 --> 00:58:42.159
this. Do you think Pool is
doing this on purpose and an effort to

753
00:58:42.280 --> 00:58:47.119
get traded because he's also rumors are
swirling that he is on the trade block.

754
00:58:49.039 --> 00:58:53.039
But who wants that attitude? That's
the thing. Nobody wants that attitude,

755
00:58:53.039 --> 00:58:55.559
So he can't be doing it on
purpose. Be very careful. He

756
00:58:57.159 --> 00:58:59.679
could be one of those players that
could be on the band list like oj

757
00:58:59.840 --> 00:59:07.239
May did, Rashad McCants, Gilbert
because everybody don't realize how good Rashad mccamts

758
00:59:07.360 --> 00:59:12.599
was because his attitude sucks so bad. What's that other dude? So of

759
00:59:12.760 --> 00:59:15.239
going to key point, going to
key boy. Kuzma does average like twenty

760
00:59:15.239 --> 00:59:21.559
three game pool average eighteen. So
let me say this, and when average

761
00:59:21.559 --> 00:59:25.320
they averaged montha they minutes though they
averaged. Let me say this, Okay,

762
00:59:25.480 --> 00:59:30.559
Jordan Poole is the better shooter.
I can't say that because he tricking

763
00:59:30.639 --> 00:59:34.360
his I'm gonna say a word,
but I ain't gonna say it on here.

764
00:59:34.519 --> 00:59:39.280
Kuzma has a better basketball IQ,
I'll give you that. And Kuzma

765
00:59:39.280 --> 00:59:44.639
has a better team effort and he
makes people. They in the same age

766
00:59:44.639 --> 00:59:47.079
group, though, ain't they Not
by much? Not by much. But

767
00:59:47.119 --> 00:59:52.280
my thing is, though you can
tell Cools picked up some stuff from being

768
00:59:52.360 --> 01:00:00.000
under Lebron. Pool was in a
championship pedigree environment, and it looked like

769
01:00:00.079 --> 01:00:06.440
he picked up Jack Didley's ship play. You played with one of the greatest

770
01:00:06.440 --> 01:00:10.239
shooters in NBA history, two of
the greatest players, two of the two

771
01:00:10.280 --> 01:00:15.559
of the greatest NBA shooters in NBA
history, probably and Thompson. If you

772
01:00:15.559 --> 01:00:19.320
really want to be you really want
to be technical, and you come to

773
01:00:19.639 --> 01:00:25.760
Washington with that bullcrap you're doing,
Steph lookaways, he's disrespecting the game.

774
01:00:28.199 --> 01:00:34.440
You're disrespecting the legacies that that you
played under. It's almost like Stephan them

775
01:00:34.440 --> 01:00:38.360
didn't even put no game in your
ear. Well remember Kesey after he got

776
01:00:38.400 --> 01:00:45.920
traded, it came out that nobody
really liked him. Problem But we see

777
01:00:45.920 --> 01:00:49.519
why now, Yeah, yeah,
I was. It was Unfortunately. I

778
01:00:49.920 --> 01:00:53.039
don't want this for Jordan Poole because
he is a hometown kid. When his

779
01:00:53.079 --> 01:00:57.559
shot is on is on. Clay
Thompson gave him credits, saying he was

780
01:00:57.599 --> 01:01:02.559
a critical piece of that championship team. I haven't heard Kuzma's name in trade

781
01:01:02.599 --> 01:01:06.679
talks, but I have heard with
Jordan Poole's, so you know the party

782
01:01:06.719 --> 01:01:09.639
is about that though. I was
co signing for Pool all this time,

783
01:01:10.039 --> 01:01:15.039
saying that they needed to get with
a Clay for him. Remember that I

784
01:01:15.559 --> 01:01:20.239
said, if anybody gonna leave,
it's gonna be Clay. I remember you

785
01:01:20.280 --> 01:01:25.239
saying that could we look like a
fool man was the future, And that's

786
01:01:25.280 --> 01:01:28.800
what I That's what I picked up. He was gonna be the future.

787
01:01:29.159 --> 01:01:32.679
All he had to do was follow
suit with Steph shit that's all he had

788
01:01:32.719 --> 01:01:37.519
to do. You got the game
right there in front of you. You

789
01:01:37.599 --> 01:01:40.599
got all the game knowledge right there
in front of you to be successful.

790
01:01:40.880 --> 01:01:46.840
Because Steph didn't come in with higher
expectations. He was in the same boat

791
01:01:46.880 --> 01:01:51.440
as you when you came in the
league, low draft pick. You know

792
01:01:51.480 --> 01:01:54.000
what I'm saying, low draft pick. Nobody had no real big expectations out

793
01:01:54.000 --> 01:02:00.719
of you. But you both were
good ball players and the league's you know

794
01:02:00.760 --> 01:02:05.239
what I'm saying, injuries help you
get your career started, and then here

795
01:02:05.320 --> 01:02:09.559
you go. You turned. You're
gonna almost get yourself black ball from the

796
01:02:09.679 --> 01:02:14.599
NBA if you keep on the path
that he's on. That's unfortunate. Man,

797
01:02:14.760 --> 01:02:16.599
Do you think that that's unfortunate?
Do you think it's that serious?

798
01:02:16.800 --> 01:02:21.280
Well, his reputation right now,
BRANCHI, it's a lot of talk.

799
01:02:21.400 --> 01:02:25.559
There's no KG, who, in
my opinion, was not a great person

800
01:02:27.400 --> 01:02:30.800
but a great baller. You got
Kate G saying that, because usually KG

801
01:02:31.000 --> 01:02:34.480
is with the Smiths, as y'all
was saying, Oh, I'm with the

802
01:02:34.480 --> 01:02:38.320
Smiths, right, You got Kate
G saying that you're bad for the NBA.

803
01:02:38.440 --> 01:02:42.800
That says a lot, bro That
says a lot. I don't like

804
01:02:42.840 --> 01:02:45.159
the way you put it, put
that together, But I get where you

805
01:02:45.199 --> 01:02:46.639
coming. Why you don't like the
way I put it together. You said,

806
01:02:46.719 --> 01:02:51.599
like KG, of all people said
it. Everybody knows that because everybody

807
01:02:51.679 --> 01:02:55.679
know KG has had a horrible attitude
too. But he never disrespected the game.

808
01:02:55.719 --> 01:02:59.800
You never dispected the game, never
disrespected his teammates. Was he hyped,

809
01:03:00.280 --> 01:03:04.039
yes, did he talk yes,
but he never was like it never

810
01:03:04.239 --> 01:03:07.280
it never got to the point where
he was like, damn well it affected

811
01:03:07.320 --> 01:03:10.480
his play that too. If a
coach bull kJ, he used to do

812
01:03:10.519 --> 01:03:15.039
this all right, who I got
you? So that's why I'm like,

813
01:03:15.079 --> 01:03:17.280
That's why I was, And that's
why I think KG is so offended,

814
01:03:17.280 --> 01:03:22.440
because KG feel like, I'm in
that category where I talk shit all game,

815
01:03:22.239 --> 01:03:25.519
but at the same time I ain't
gonna disrespect the game or the legends

816
01:03:25.559 --> 01:03:32.079
I play with. Exactly. Poor, poor, poor play didn't getting him

817
01:03:32.119 --> 01:03:37.840
kicked out of gonna state his mouth. His attitude did. And when you

818
01:03:37.880 --> 01:03:39.880
have a player like that where their
attitude got them kicked out, where got

819
01:03:39.920 --> 01:03:44.400
them in the league still? But
they're he's still making a hundred grand over

820
01:03:44.440 --> 01:03:46.960
a hundred million, ain't making a
hundred million, you got a pretty fair

821
01:03:47.039 --> 01:03:52.519
contract. So guys like that,
I donna say don't deserve it to be

822
01:03:52.719 --> 01:03:53.559
like I just feel like it's kind
of heart I just think he need a

823
01:03:53.599 --> 01:03:58.079
reality check. I don't know what
that reality check. You think you need

824
01:03:58.079 --> 01:04:04.719
a reality check? I didn't have
anything for Bucks Star, but if you

825
01:04:04.760 --> 01:04:10.039
guys would like to bring something up
the time, are we concerned that the

826
01:04:10.079 --> 01:04:14.840
Bucks are barely beating teams that they
should be killed. Whether you win by

827
01:04:14.840 --> 01:04:18.800
one or you win by twenty,
a win is a lucky win a win?

828
01:04:19.920 --> 01:04:26.400
How long are you gonna say that
for a team that's trying to figure

829
01:04:26.480 --> 01:04:29.800
things out and you still win it
and pulling it off. I'm with it.

830
01:04:30.559 --> 01:04:35.159
You went down twenty one by the
Boston Celtics, smashing you all game,

831
01:04:36.400 --> 01:04:40.039
you get the game tied up,
and you only lose by three.

832
01:04:40.920 --> 01:04:47.519
I can live with that because I
know the heart and the the the intensity

833
01:04:47.519 --> 01:04:55.280
to get better is there if they
were getting smacked and they were losing,

834
01:04:56.239 --> 01:05:00.519
Hey, Griffin, it's trying to
pull you into the all doesn't have a

835
01:05:00.559 --> 01:05:02.800
talk. So what you're saying is
you have hope for the future just based

836
01:05:02.800 --> 01:05:06.880
off because they're not getting smacked.
Yeah, they're not getting smacked. This

837
01:05:08.039 --> 01:05:12.679
a new environment with a new superstar. You gotta you gotta give them some

838
01:05:12.800 --> 01:05:16.519
credit. Man, How many how
many games are you saying? Cool,

839
01:05:16.719 --> 01:05:19.519
all right, we're still we're still
working things out. How many games?

840
01:05:19.960 --> 01:05:23.679
What do you mean they only lost
five games on twelve? Ask you how

841
01:05:23.679 --> 01:05:27.280
many games in total? Actually thirteen
and five, ain't they After the nice

842
01:05:27.320 --> 01:05:30.280
wan they will be thirteen and five? How many games in total are you

843
01:05:30.400 --> 01:05:34.159
giving them to figure it out?
I mean, how many games are they

844
01:05:34.199 --> 01:05:38.039
giving the Clippers? Because are they
seven and eight right now? Who?

845
01:05:38.360 --> 01:05:43.880
The Clippers? The barbecue chicken?
They ain't got no coming. The Lakers,

846
01:05:43.880 --> 01:05:47.760
they ain't got nothing coming. I'm
asking I'm this is a serious question.

847
01:05:47.800 --> 01:05:50.679
This is not no Joe. I'm
asking you how many games are you

848
01:05:50.760 --> 01:05:55.320
giving them to figure it out?
Because they already played seventeen? So next

849
01:05:55.360 --> 01:06:00.519
week is your is YR? Is
your U twenty thirty? By game thirty,

850
01:06:00.519 --> 01:06:04.239
the Bucks should be By game thirty
eight, the Bucks should be on

851
01:06:04.320 --> 01:06:08.840
the same majority of on the same
page. Okay, game thirty. Are

852
01:06:08.880 --> 01:06:13.719
you saying top five in the Eastern
Conference? I mean, right now,

853
01:06:13.880 --> 01:06:16.480
are you saying they're top five in
the Eastern Conference. Over they'll stay there.

854
01:06:16.480 --> 01:06:19.599
They'll stay in the top five.
Okay, are you I'm just trying

855
01:06:19.599 --> 01:06:24.000
to see I'm trying to get his
measure in here, because you're saying thirty

856
01:06:24.039 --> 01:06:26.840
games like well, winning record,
because they can be thirty games, will

857
01:06:26.880 --> 01:06:31.039
should be in one two okay,
because they could be fifteen to fifteen thirty

858
01:06:31.039 --> 01:06:34.199
games, they'll see in the top
three, steal guaranteed. Okay. So

859
01:06:34.360 --> 01:06:38.800
you're saying fift thirty games top three, like, okay, I can deal

860
01:06:38.840 --> 01:06:43.559
with it. Finish the season top
three, well they Canada, meaning now,

861
01:06:43.559 --> 01:06:45.239
but well, I see what you
came with, bron all right,

862
01:06:45.639 --> 01:06:50.480
Gray, but you feel in the
same way. I'm already somewhat concerned,

863
01:06:50.960 --> 01:06:56.800
but it's not a concern where we
need to bust this thing up. I

864
01:06:56.880 --> 01:07:01.280
never thought Adrian Griffin was the guy. I still don't because it takes a

865
01:07:01.280 --> 01:07:05.119
special kind of coach to coach superstars. I think losing Terry Stotts was critical

866
01:07:05.159 --> 01:07:11.239
to our team because he had that
leadership of head coaches. Bucks don't have

867
01:07:11.280 --> 01:07:15.239
any head coaches on the bench helping
coach these superstars. Hold on, let

868
01:07:15.280 --> 01:07:19.159
me stop you right now. Send
me one accolade that Terry Stots got.

869
01:07:19.400 --> 01:07:25.159
That makes him credible as a head
coach. Because remember he was coaching in

870
01:07:25.199 --> 01:07:28.159
Portland and they went and they aske
whipped every year, and they went to

871
01:07:28.159 --> 01:07:30.440
the playoffs every year. But then
they got they ass whipped every year,

872
01:07:30.480 --> 01:07:33.400
but the playoffs every year but two
because Dame natural talent. It wasn't because

873
01:07:33.400 --> 01:07:43.360
of his coaching. I'm not gonna
respond. So so so when when when

874
01:07:43.400 --> 01:07:45.920
they lose, it's it's not the
coaches, but when they win, it

875
01:07:46.000 --> 01:07:51.800
is coaching. If you got a
superstar like Dame in his prime and he

876
01:07:51.840 --> 01:07:55.679
can get you to the playoffs,
your coaches should get you to the third

877
01:07:55.760 --> 01:08:00.800
or fourth, get you to the
conference finals. Rights once they did not,

878
01:08:00.920 --> 01:08:05.360
No, because they couldn't get past
Steph. So was Mike Brown a

879
01:08:05.400 --> 01:08:10.360
good coach when he coached Lebron?
No, Lebron got him over the hump.

880
01:08:12.400 --> 01:08:14.480
I told you I didn't think Mike
Brown was a good coach. To

881
01:08:14.559 --> 01:08:18.279
tell he Sacramento, Okay, he's
a good coach. It's Phil Jackson a

882
01:08:18.319 --> 01:08:25.239
good coach. Of course. Jordan
got him over the hump. Kobe got

883
01:08:25.279 --> 01:08:29.600
him over the hump. Shaq got
him over the hump. It's but a

884
01:08:29.640 --> 01:08:32.880
good coach. A former two time
Coach of the Year was a good coach.

885
01:08:33.279 --> 01:08:39.680
Jan got him over the hump because
he didn't make adjustments. That's why

886
01:08:39.680 --> 01:08:44.399
they were losing every year before they
got that championship. That's what I'm talking

887
01:08:44.439 --> 01:08:46.239
about right there. That part is
what I'm talking about. You can tell

888
01:08:46.279 --> 01:08:51.079
the coaches who are coaches when they
come playoff time because they get you wins.

889
01:08:51.520 --> 01:08:57.960
Well, ain't nobody even producing that
well? Eric Sposure, look what

890
01:08:58.039 --> 01:09:01.720
Miami did. Good Coachure now good
coach even though he had Lebron and Dwayne

891
01:09:01.760 --> 01:09:09.600
Wade, Steve it was in the
NBA finals last year. The great coach.

892
01:09:09.640 --> 01:09:13.800
They was in the NBA Finals with
just Jimmy Butler and Bam out of

893
01:09:13.840 --> 01:09:18.760
Bio and a one legged Kyle Laurie
at the Sea. Get the immigrants.

894
01:09:18.760 --> 01:09:25.359
So don't tell me the ain't no
coaching. Don't forget which ones which ones?

895
01:09:28.560 --> 01:09:31.960
All about laughing at that because I
support immigration. So I'm gonna say

896
01:09:32.000 --> 01:09:35.840
that. You see where I'm going
when I say what coaching does different?

897
01:09:40.399 --> 01:09:45.960
Got over? Yeah, okay,
So I'm gonna say you said what I

898
01:09:46.000 --> 01:09:50.000
said? What said you say what
I'm gonna say, like this, the

899
01:09:50.119 --> 01:09:54.920
luckiest son of the did you forget
that they were games when they had what

900
01:09:55.000 --> 01:09:58.560
you call it as they Mark?
But as you said, coaches aren't supposed

901
01:09:58.600 --> 01:10:02.000
to get you over those perses second
rounds. Steve Kerr got them over that

902
01:10:02.359 --> 01:10:05.720
multiple times. Mark couldn't get him
past that first or second. I'm gonna

903
01:10:05.720 --> 01:10:09.239
say this about you only had one
year to do it. I'm gonna say

904
01:10:09.239 --> 01:10:14.439
this about he had to. It
all started when he's let me stop Markle

905
01:10:14.479 --> 01:10:18.119
too much of a the NBA black
balled him. I'm like, I'm gonna

906
01:10:18.159 --> 01:10:23.800
keep it a buck NBA. I
believe black bottom because he wasn't a house

907
01:10:23.880 --> 01:10:27.159
negro. Yeah, you know what
the house negro is. Yep, Sit

908
01:10:27.199 --> 01:10:30.600
down, sir, don't you talk
about that? Be quiet. He spoke

909
01:10:30.680 --> 01:10:33.600
up against things that was against his
spiritual belief and he's been blackballed ever since.

910
01:10:33.800 --> 01:10:36.560
But there's a part two that I
share with y'all off the hot mic

911
01:10:38.000 --> 01:10:41.840
because of some inside information of why
he's been blackballed too. He needs to

912
01:10:41.840 --> 01:10:44.640
go get it well, he needs
to go ahead and he needs to make

913
01:10:44.680 --> 01:10:45.960
things right with Jerry West. I'm
believe it at that. I don't think

914
01:10:46.920 --> 01:10:54.800
anyway, the Milwaukee Bucks, I'm
going to give them a little more time

915
01:10:54.800 --> 01:10:59.239
for chemistry. But adding Dane to
me, I feel like we should be

916
01:10:59.239 --> 01:11:02.760
blowing people out and we're not barely
winning doesn't work for me. We just

917
01:11:02.880 --> 01:11:08.439
barely beat a four and eleven team, and it was beating us by thirty.

918
01:11:09.279 --> 01:11:12.319
But Dame is having a who the
worst start to an NBA career he

919
01:11:12.800 --> 01:11:15.399
I mean, worst start to the
NBA season he's had since he's been in

920
01:11:15.439 --> 01:11:20.600
the league. And we're still in
the top two. So just imagine when

921
01:11:20.680 --> 01:11:26.279
Dame really started catching fire and he
really started catching his rhythm and game about

922
01:11:26.319 --> 01:11:30.039
game thirty year about thirty thirty five
is when you'll see Dame catch his rhythm.

923
01:11:30.920 --> 01:11:33.640
And I think the other part there
might be next year. As we'll

924
01:11:33.680 --> 01:11:35.920
put that out there, it might
be next year. And we all agree

925
01:11:35.960 --> 01:11:40.920
at this table the Championship of bus, Well, what you mean next year?

926
01:11:41.079 --> 01:11:43.760
I said, by game thirty to
thirty five, he'll have his rhythm.

927
01:11:44.279 --> 01:11:45.720
Dame just trying to find his rhythm. Though, I'm telling you,

928
01:11:45.760 --> 01:11:49.239
basketball is a rhythm game, and
until you find your rhythm, you're gonna

929
01:11:49.239 --> 01:11:54.039
shy struggles well and to be honest, abmitted to find his rhythm. And

930
01:11:55.359 --> 01:12:00.800
I'm gonna say this too, I
think we're all so seeing and appreciating what

931
01:12:00.880 --> 01:12:03.600
Chris Middleton brings in his ball club
because all the games that we've been getting

932
01:12:03.600 --> 01:12:09.600
blown out, Middleton has not had
either minutes or he has not contributing the

933
01:12:09.640 --> 01:12:12.319
way that we like him to.
Well, I feel like I feel like

934
01:12:12.920 --> 01:12:15.439
I'm sorry. And he looks hobbled. We saw him on Friday and his

935
01:12:15.640 --> 01:12:18.560
minutes look forced him. He's on
the he's on the trade block. I

936
01:12:18.560 --> 01:12:24.520
heard minutes look for I heard,
I heard him, and I heard the

937
01:12:24.520 --> 01:12:29.319
Bucks of auctioning and all him in
a bow champ for a trade. I

938
01:12:29.359 --> 01:12:32.000
don't like. My thing is this
bow champ is what's gonna help us get

939
01:12:32.079 --> 01:12:35.399
with the Middleton. But I don't
think he's good at getting who you really

940
01:12:35.399 --> 01:12:39.239
want in the trade. Hey,
I like to fight in boat champ though.

941
01:12:39.279 --> 01:12:42.560
You see we told Jordan Poole like
man, back up, man you.

942
01:12:43.560 --> 01:12:46.520
My thing is the Bucks don't have
an identity. We have identity crisis,

943
01:12:46.600 --> 01:12:50.199
and you don't get that identity if
you don't have it. Starting off,

944
01:12:50.399 --> 01:12:54.039
I think this is lack of coach
experience. If you don't have it

945
01:12:54.119 --> 01:12:57.800
starting off, you can't get it
later on in the season. But I

946
01:12:57.880 --> 01:13:02.520
just feel like it's it's the longer
it stays like this, the more it's

947
01:13:02.560 --> 01:13:08.439
iffy. And if he teams don't
make it to the NBA Championship, if

948
01:13:08.439 --> 01:13:11.359
he teams don't do that, if
he teams get bounced on the first round.

949
01:13:12.760 --> 01:13:14.359
Last year, I didn't see it. I'm not even gonna lie to

950
01:13:14.359 --> 01:13:16.319
you. I didn't see it last
year. You seen it. I think

951
01:13:16.399 --> 01:13:24.800
Drake seeing it was tap dancing.
I wasn't. My only thing is called

952
01:13:24.840 --> 01:13:27.239
it last year. I said,
see, I seen something wrong with the

953
01:13:27.239 --> 01:13:32.199
bucket. This year, did dance
like a championship team? You you were

954
01:13:32.279 --> 01:13:38.800
saying, I don't say, y'all, then don't just put it on because

955
01:13:38.840 --> 01:13:42.079
I called it out at the beginning
of the season. You know you called

956
01:13:42.119 --> 01:13:45.720
it out after your twenty twenty five
games. Yeah, Drake called it out

957
01:13:45.760 --> 01:13:47.199
because we kept getting blue out by
these good teams that were supposed to be

958
01:13:47.159 --> 01:13:50.359
beating or at least competing with.
Yeah, I didn't. I never called

959
01:13:50.399 --> 01:13:54.039
it. I had faith all year. This year, my eyes because we're

960
01:13:54.079 --> 01:13:57.319
fans this year, my eyes are
open wide and I don't like what I

961
01:13:57.359 --> 01:14:00.680
see and I'm like this, I'm
gonna say, and this is when you're

962
01:14:00.680 --> 01:14:02.840
gonna be wrong. Hold up,
I'm gonna sit at this table right now.

963
01:14:04.319 --> 01:14:09.319
At this point in the season,
the Milwaukee Bucks are not the favorite

964
01:14:09.319 --> 01:14:14.199
to win the championship. They're not
the favorite to come out the East right

965
01:14:14.239 --> 01:14:20.479
now. And I'll tell you this
now. On November twenty, November twenty

966
01:14:20.560 --> 01:14:25.960
six, at six fifteen, the
Bucks will be in the NBA Finals.

967
01:14:26.039 --> 01:14:31.760
Hold up, hold up, hold
up, hold up? Old Ugh say

968
01:14:31.760 --> 01:14:36.079
it again. The Bucks will be
in the NBA Finals. I said that

969
01:14:36.239 --> 01:14:41.279
on eleven, twenty six, twenty
twenty three, that's six fifteen PM.

970
01:14:41.800 --> 01:14:45.279
I need to be a part of
that now. Wow, I would love

971
01:14:45.399 --> 01:14:50.640
to agree with my brother on November
twenty six. I don't see as of

972
01:14:51.079 --> 01:14:57.880
today and the team I'm watching now, I do not see an NBA Finals

973
01:14:57.920 --> 01:15:02.199
pathway, is it not? You
put your thumb? Well, we have

974
01:15:02.279 --> 01:15:08.000
it on tape. But like I
said, right now, dancing around it.

975
01:15:09.000 --> 01:15:13.319
Dance, But like I said,
dance the Bucks. Shut up.

976
01:15:13.439 --> 01:15:15.520
I get a different vibe from the
Bucks this year than I did last year.

977
01:15:16.600 --> 01:15:21.119
And the vibe as I'm getting this, players are eager to get better

978
01:15:21.439 --> 01:15:25.840
and you can see it, and
they play in a body language. Body

979
01:15:25.920 --> 01:15:29.840
language held you a lot about a
team. The Bucks whole body language during

980
01:15:29.840 --> 01:15:34.640
this time last year was even off
to me. Anybody was just saying no,

981
01:15:34.720 --> 01:15:39.800
I ain't saying that because they're still
working. They're working hard. It's

982
01:15:39.800 --> 01:15:45.760
just it feels like we It feel
like we missing one one thing and our

983
01:15:45.880 --> 01:15:53.000
rotation is off. I don't know
who gotta switch something, but it's one

984
01:15:53.079 --> 01:15:58.319
piece in our roster outside of Jay
Crowder that's not right, and we all

985
01:15:58.359 --> 01:16:06.279
know what that is and who that
is, who Chris Middleton. But this

986
01:16:06.319 --> 01:16:12.560
is the thing about Chris Mility.
I'm telling you now, by trade deadline,

987
01:16:14.159 --> 01:16:17.840
Chris's medals will not be a Milwaukee
Buck. I'm believing. I don't

988
01:16:17.840 --> 01:16:20.840
think they're gonna fully bust the roster
like that. You're not gonna bust the

989
01:16:20.920 --> 01:16:26.039
roster because you're not well. You
just go for somebody younger that can shoot

990
01:16:26.079 --> 01:16:30.319
just as well as Chris. Because
Chris can't defend. So him defending days

991
01:16:30.399 --> 01:16:32.720
is over because I'm looking at it. When we at the games, they're

992
01:16:32.760 --> 01:16:38.840
going right past Chris like the knees. So Chris gotta go. So why

993
01:16:38.880 --> 01:16:44.119
would anyone want the knees though,
because he's still an elite score. He's

994
01:16:44.119 --> 01:16:48.520
stealing an elite score. You can
if you throw boat champion there, that's

995
01:16:48.520 --> 01:16:51.000
what I think you can. I
think both champs the piece. The only

996
01:16:51.079 --> 01:16:54.720
person you see now you see why. That why I said what I said.

997
01:16:54.720 --> 01:16:58.720
When I've seen that rumor, it
makes total sense. The only person.

998
01:16:59.079 --> 01:17:02.039
But the question is we're not gonna
get I don't know who that replacement

999
01:17:02.119 --> 01:17:11.439
is. Buddy, Buddy, hell
y'all want him. So I'm gonna say,

1000
01:17:11.439 --> 01:17:15.720
like bloody Hill, don't go or
don't guard like that. Like a

1001
01:17:15.800 --> 01:17:18.439
bucket, I'm keeping nearly sixty four. I'm keeping middle six six because the

1002
01:17:18.439 --> 01:17:23.960
bucks are small now with loss of
holiday, bucks are small. Did you

1003
01:17:24.000 --> 01:17:27.960
see our lineups? We are small. Pat Connington, we need to do

1004
01:17:28.000 --> 01:17:31.560
something with him. Okay, shout
out to three lead company and everything you

1005
01:17:31.600 --> 01:17:36.000
do in real estate. But the
gameplay. No, okay, I'm gonna

1006
01:17:36.000 --> 01:17:40.159
say this about the bucks. I
don't see championship now. It's early.

1007
01:17:41.560 --> 01:17:44.479
Casey likes to give twenty five.
I like to give all Star break,

1008
01:17:45.600 --> 01:17:49.399
All Star break for what predictions.
I'm gonna still do it next week.

1009
01:17:50.479 --> 01:17:53.000
No, No, No, ain't
no talking about I've been quite a long

1010
01:17:53.279 --> 01:17:57.720
start break because the first forty have
been played. The ceison doesn't really start

1011
01:17:57.800 --> 01:18:00.520
until after the All Star break.
Let's keep it a buck for the playoffs.

1012
01:18:00.680 --> 01:18:03.880
If you can't tell your team what
they look like by All Star break,

1013
01:18:04.840 --> 01:18:10.800
you can't tell my end. Obviously
it's on a downward spot. Well,

1014
01:18:10.800 --> 01:18:13.640
I'm gonna say it like this,
I have high hopes for the Bucks.

1015
01:18:14.359 --> 01:18:18.159
I'm not liking what I'm seeing just
yet, but i have hopes.

1016
01:18:19.520 --> 01:18:23.720
I don't like what I see and
uh like, well, well, like

1017
01:18:23.720 --> 01:18:26.159
I said before, we'll put some
of the ridictions next week, because this

1018
01:18:26.199 --> 01:18:29.279
is past key, this key episode. That's what I'm prank. Name at

1019
01:18:29.319 --> 01:18:33.560
the title episode, they got twenty
five games, so they got six possible

1020
01:18:33.640 --> 01:18:44.399
trades for Chris Middleton out there.
One is Ben Simmons. No, seriously,

1021
01:18:45.399 --> 01:18:51.399
someone predicted that. No, oh
god, No, Number five.

1022
01:18:51.520 --> 01:18:58.399
Number five is Gordon Hayward. Nope, No, he's washed. Bus there

1023
01:18:58.399 --> 01:19:01.800
you go. Not top five?
But oh what what draft was? He

1024
01:19:02.159 --> 01:19:11.600
teams teams and bringing a former Milwaukee
Buck back to Milwaukee, Michael Malcolm Broder,

1025
01:19:13.279 --> 01:19:16.680
Tobias Harris, No, no,
no, Tobias Harrison played for Milwaukee.

1026
01:19:16.840 --> 01:19:19.960
Yeah, he got traded as a
part. I forgot what deal he

1027
01:19:20.000 --> 01:19:26.159
got traded on, but he would
played for US. We drafted him.

1028
01:19:26.199 --> 01:19:32.159
Also, Gordon Hayward was the nine
pick by Utah by the way. Also

1029
01:19:34.319 --> 01:19:41.920
number three is Andrew Wiggins. I
think that Washington is really I mean Washington

1030
01:19:42.680 --> 01:19:46.479
Golden State is really interested in boat
Champ right now. Serious, Yeah,

1031
01:19:47.079 --> 01:19:50.560
be out your sources. Don't worry
about that. I got mine. I

1032
01:19:50.640 --> 01:19:57.359
gonna lie. Boat Champ Champions might
be the player of the future, flourish

1033
01:19:57.479 --> 01:20:00.119
in the right system. It's part
in here. Also they are as much

1034
01:20:00.119 --> 01:20:06.319
as they are also considering the deal
with Portland again bringing in Jeremy Grant.

1035
01:20:06.880 --> 01:20:14.439
No, no, I'll take Wigans
though. And the number one probably who

1036
01:20:14.439 --> 01:20:21.319
the Bucks are going to trade for
is they just waiting on Chicago. They

1037
01:20:21.399 --> 01:20:25.119
really waiting on Chicago to pull that
trigger on that thing like that. But

1038
01:20:25.159 --> 01:20:30.560
here's the thing, a rental though
his contract set, he'll stay, he'll

1039
01:20:30.600 --> 01:20:34.000
stay, he start, But at
the end of the l at the end,

1040
01:20:34.600 --> 01:20:36.640
they had an opportunity to get him
and they didn't want them. But

1041
01:20:39.000 --> 01:20:41.359
what I'm saying, nobody wanted them. Come on here, get your mind

1042
01:20:41.439 --> 01:20:45.720
right, get the championship. I'll
take that. So you'll trade Chris Middleton

1043
01:20:45.760 --> 01:20:48.600
for the mar Rozan no problem,
even if you got to give a boat

1044
01:20:48.640 --> 01:20:54.720
Champe. No. Yeah, here's
the thing, because you can always make

1045
01:20:54.760 --> 01:20:57.720
boat Champ another off for a few
years down the line. He's still on

1046
01:20:57.720 --> 01:21:00.760
this rookie deal. He got two
years left on the Listen. Here's the

1047
01:21:00.800 --> 01:21:04.119
thing. Who said he's gonna offer
bow CHAMPI extension, not no big one?

1048
01:21:04.359 --> 01:21:10.520
Well off, not a big one. How much whatever he's he won't

1049
01:21:10.520 --> 01:21:12.800
get the max for his class.
I know he won't get the max,

1050
01:21:12.840 --> 01:21:14.720
but how much are you? How
much do you give it? Boat?

1051
01:21:14.800 --> 01:21:18.199
They'll give bow Champ fifteen to twenty
million a year? What or let me

1052
01:21:18.239 --> 01:21:23.720
tell you something. Bow Champ reminds
me. No, ten million three years.

1053
01:21:23.840 --> 01:21:28.640
Bow Champ reminds me of how Yanni
started. No, let me finish.

1054
01:21:28.680 --> 01:21:30.479
When Yani started, he was not
that great he was he was not

1055
01:21:30.520 --> 01:21:36.520
that great bow Champ and his second
year is better than what Gianni's was in

1056
01:21:36.600 --> 01:21:42.600
his second year. That Champ Dame
has already said it. In one on

1057
01:21:42.600 --> 01:21:45.479
ones, bow Champ has beat them
all. Yeah, I tell you a

1058
01:21:45.560 --> 01:21:48.359
nice guy too beat them all.
My bad, he's beat them all.

1059
01:21:49.439 --> 01:21:54.880
I'm not saying bow champions better than
anybody right now, but you can't be

1060
01:21:55.119 --> 01:22:00.159
like the Los Angeles Lakers and give
up all your talent early Bowl champions here

1061
01:22:00.199 --> 01:22:03.199
and he wants to stay, pay
that man. Let him flourish until he's

1062
01:22:03.199 --> 01:22:08.239
in a million. I didn't say
one hundred million. I said fifteen to

1063
01:22:08.239 --> 01:22:11.640
twenty a year. I say how
many years? Give him a three given

1064
01:22:11.680 --> 01:22:14.680
a four year deal, I'll say
three years, sixty. I'll take you.

1065
01:22:15.199 --> 01:22:17.479
That's so, that's what the bus
probably would offer him right now.

1066
01:22:18.239 --> 01:22:21.279
But let him go. Flourish him
in the lineup where he'll get more minutes

1067
01:22:21.319 --> 01:22:26.359
like Chicago for a year, and
then when his when his contract is up,

1068
01:22:28.359 --> 01:22:30.920
put an offer out there, because
either Chicago got to match your offer

1069
01:22:32.239 --> 01:22:36.119
or the boat Champ take your offer. This but I would have this discussion

1070
01:22:36.119 --> 01:22:40.319
with Boat Champ. I'm gonna give
you a chance to go to Chicago's.

1071
01:22:40.319 --> 01:22:43.760
We're gonna trade you with Middleton to
Chicago. You're gonna get a lot of

1072
01:22:43.800 --> 01:22:46.760
minutes. You're gonna be able to
see if you can flourish him not in

1073
01:22:46.800 --> 01:22:51.800
a higher row. If you do, we're gonna make an offer that nobody

1074
01:22:51.840 --> 01:22:56.479
else can resist, nobody else can
pay, and bring you back here on

1075
01:22:56.600 --> 01:23:00.840
next to Jannis. That's how I
would look it. As a GMF.

1076
01:23:00.880 --> 01:23:04.199
I'm Milwaukee, That's how I'm looking
at it. And sports writers are calling

1077
01:23:05.399 --> 01:23:12.159
Marjon Bouchamp the most attractive trade piece
out there right now, I can see

1078
01:23:12.159 --> 01:23:15.000
that. I just don't see what
y'all seeing as far as him being he

1079
01:23:15.079 --> 01:23:18.760
gonna get paid and he's not getting
paid. Number two, I also don't

1080
01:23:18.840 --> 01:23:23.520
well him getting traded, no problem, because we need somebody who can shoot,

1081
01:23:23.560 --> 01:23:26.680
who can shoot like Middleton, and
that would be the Marta Rosen.

1082
