Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, cats and dogs. This is another

2
00:00:53.079 --> 00:00:57.039
episode of ninety four feet podcast,
Your Boy Bigseeking the building. I'm here,

3
00:00:57.119 --> 00:01:00.439
my brother Dre. It's good everybody. Always great to be back with

4
00:01:00.520 --> 00:01:04.400
y'all. I'm also hearing my brother
Keithy. Good. Good people. It's

5
00:01:04.400 --> 00:01:11.840
a pleasure to be in the building
to day. Yeah, this is the

6
00:01:11.879 --> 00:01:19.079
second week of UH of the n
b A and we are here. It

7
00:01:19.200 --> 00:01:26.000
was so enthusiasm that we can't control
ourselves. As you can see, I'm

8
00:01:26.200 --> 00:01:34.640
very ecstatic. Injury report, there
isn't one. I wanted you to read

9
00:01:34.640 --> 00:01:38.840
that no significant injuries. There isn't
one those significant injuries this week. Hey

10
00:01:38.840 --> 00:01:47.319
man, don't come in here trying
to police how I'm saying you are.

11
00:01:47.359 --> 00:01:49.799
There are no injuries to report,
so we should be happy. There is

12
00:01:49.920 --> 00:01:56.799
one that just came across my feed, but I'll wait till next week.

13
00:01:57.840 --> 00:02:04.280
McCullen, Uh, mccull What does
he play for this week? This week?

14
00:02:04.400 --> 00:02:08.240
This week he gets traded a lot. It's is the first time he's

15
00:02:08.240 --> 00:02:12.120
been traded. He played for the
Pelicans. He played for Portland for his

16
00:02:12.159 --> 00:02:15.680
whole career and then traded to Repelicans. Wasn't there a trading between there?

17
00:02:16.120 --> 00:02:20.840
Y'all? Sure, y'are always one
hundred percent sure it would be nine percent

18
00:02:20.879 --> 00:02:22.479
wrong, But I just want to
put that up. Well, then look

19
00:02:22.479 --> 00:02:24.800
it up. Then what's his injury? Say, something something happened with is

20
00:02:24.879 --> 00:02:28.960
long. I don't know one hundred
percent sure it's it's like a disease type

21
00:02:29.000 --> 00:02:34.879
situation. And those are always those
are already always irritating just because sometimes those

22
00:02:34.919 --> 00:02:37.919
be you can't play ball no more. So I hope wish for the best

23
00:02:37.919 --> 00:02:45.680
for him. Yeah, mcc shout
to McCall. Another grim news starting to

24
00:02:45.719 --> 00:02:51.159
shoot around segment. Uh the all
time one of the all time greats n

25
00:02:51.199 --> 00:02:55.400
C Double A coaches, Bobby Knight, has passed away this week. He

26
00:02:55.520 --> 00:03:00.000
was eighty three years old. A
little fun fact, uh, Night with

27
00:03:00.080 --> 00:03:07.240
the last coach to go undefeated have
an undefeated season. So rip rest in

28
00:03:07.280 --> 00:03:13.039
paradise for Bobby Knight and his family
and condolences to his family. Something I

29
00:03:13.039 --> 00:03:16.439
should have spoke on last week,
but I didn't be like that. Sometimes.

30
00:03:16.960 --> 00:03:24.199
After nineteen seasons in the NBA,
andre Iagodala has decided to retire.

31
00:03:24.400 --> 00:03:30.280
He's a four time NBA champ and
he's the twenty fifteen NBA Finals MVP with

32
00:03:30.360 --> 00:03:35.759
the infamous Well he was on the
other end of a chased down block from

33
00:03:35.840 --> 00:03:38.000
Lebron James. That won them the
series depends on who you ask us,

34
00:03:38.080 --> 00:03:40.759
right, most likely Keys, he'll
tell you that won them the series.

35
00:03:40.800 --> 00:03:47.360
But let's need to hear no there, so shout out to him. Uh.

36
00:03:49.199 --> 00:03:54.479
With that being said, two questions. One is he a first ballot

37
00:03:55.240 --> 00:04:02.800
Hall of Famer who andre Igudala?
No, I'm sorry what you said.

38
00:04:02.840 --> 00:04:06.479
He's not first ballot first ballot.
I don't know about first ballot. He'll

39
00:04:06.479 --> 00:04:11.199
be a future Hall of Famer though, but you wow, okay, go

40
00:04:11.199 --> 00:04:15.800
ahead, you wouldn't you want to
expound on that or you just I mean,

41
00:04:15.160 --> 00:04:19.160
Dolls had a decent career, but
at the same time, he hasn't

42
00:04:19.240 --> 00:04:24.360
had a superstar career, you know
what I mean If that makes sense.

43
00:04:24.680 --> 00:04:28.680
I mean, he had a great
career, but he didn't have a superstar

44
00:04:29.519 --> 00:04:32.680
Hall of Famer automatic career. I
guess my thing when you say that though

45
00:04:32.680 --> 00:04:36.240
this think about that number one.
We know, but then again, stars,

46
00:04:38.040 --> 00:04:42.399
not only superstars go to Hall of
Fame. But I think about it,

47
00:04:42.399 --> 00:04:45.319
I think he's had a good enough
career to be a first ballot Hall

48
00:04:45.319 --> 00:04:49.399
of Famer. I think he has
a first because compared to other people who

49
00:04:49.399 --> 00:04:55.240
were our first ballot home Hall of
Famers, I think that he did what

50
00:04:55.319 --> 00:04:58.000
he was supposed to do. It
just been on who in that class that's

51
00:04:58.000 --> 00:05:02.240
going in with him. I'll get
that. So Iggy is not a first

52
00:05:02.240 --> 00:05:06.319
ballot Hall of Famer? Is he
a Hall of Famer? Absolutely? Iggy

53
00:05:06.360 --> 00:05:10.439
had a really good career. We're
not gonna say great. He had a

54
00:05:10.480 --> 00:05:15.759
really good career. He had a
really great situation with the Golden State Warriors.

55
00:05:16.319 --> 00:05:23.160
I give Iggy credit because he was
Golden State's first big free agent signing,

56
00:05:23.360 --> 00:05:27.040
right. That was one of their
first acquisitions when you start talking about

57
00:05:27.079 --> 00:05:30.759
the new Golden State Warriors. But
if you look at Iggy's career stats,

58
00:05:31.360 --> 00:05:38.560
they're not that great. They're average
at best. To His highest scoring season

59
00:05:38.800 --> 00:05:45.120
was seven to eight. He averaged
nineteen point nine points a game and he

60
00:05:45.199 --> 00:05:50.360
averaged roughly five rebounds a game and
four assists a game. That was statistically

61
00:05:50.480 --> 00:05:56.240
his best year overall in terms of
points and things. And then he had

62
00:05:56.279 --> 00:06:01.720
another good season nine ten. I
still question them giving him that Finals MVP

63
00:06:01.879 --> 00:06:06.079
it should have went to Steph.
But because he was on Lebron, he

64
00:06:06.240 --> 00:06:11.759
was coined the Lebron Stopper, right
because they beat Lebron and they gave him

65
00:06:11.800 --> 00:06:15.879
that MVP. Defensively, he did
stop Lebron, but if you don't get

66
00:06:15.920 --> 00:06:19.639
Steph's offense, you don't win that
title. But what's done is done,

67
00:06:19.759 --> 00:06:26.000
So Iggy is certainly a Hall of
Famer, first ballot questionable. Iggy will

68
00:06:26.040 --> 00:06:30.360
go down as one of the greatest
role players to ever play the game,

69
00:06:30.519 --> 00:06:32.800
but he didn't change the game.
When I think about first ballot Hall of

70
00:06:32.839 --> 00:06:36.600
Famers, I think about people that
changed the game or brought a certain level

71
00:06:36.600 --> 00:06:41.639
of excitement to the game. He's
good, but Iggy's not first ballot.

72
00:06:41.720 --> 00:06:43.920
So let me ask you this.
Then he's a great role player. Because

73
00:06:43.920 --> 00:06:46.399
I've seen a debate one day,
I was just gonna go into that.

74
00:06:46.399 --> 00:06:50.879
That's what brought this discussion up.
Was to me was to me he was

75
00:06:50.959 --> 00:06:54.639
our first ballot Hall of Famer.
But I know what you're talking about.

76
00:06:54.680 --> 00:07:01.600
On Gilli's podcast called Gill's Arena,
they were having a discussion about who's better

77
00:07:02.000 --> 00:07:08.399
Iggy or Kawhi Leonard, and it
started off with I forgot his name.

78
00:07:08.560 --> 00:07:13.279
I can't think of his name,
Stephen Jackson. No, it's it was,

79
00:07:14.560 --> 00:07:20.680
I can't think of his name.
He gotta dog dog and ms mckamts.

80
00:07:20.720 --> 00:07:26.680
Why is why is this even a
question? This is a question watching

81
00:07:26.759 --> 00:07:28.879
not a question. This is here's
my thing, here's my thing. Why

82
00:07:28.920 --> 00:07:31.480
is it a question Kawhi or andre
because we had a better career, That's

83
00:07:31.480 --> 00:07:34.920
what they were debating about. Why
is that a question? Because if you

84
00:07:35.199 --> 00:07:39.519
asked, if you compare the two, you sure you want to do that?

85
00:07:39.600 --> 00:07:41.959
Right now? Here's my thing about
these two? Yeah, yeah,

86
00:07:42.160 --> 00:07:46.959
right, let's do it, okay, because I'm looking at some I'm looking

87
00:07:46.959 --> 00:07:51.319
at a side by side right now. Now. These are accolades. NBA

88
00:07:51.480 --> 00:07:58.120
Championship he has four, Kawhid has
two, clearly, uh but Kawhi has

89
00:07:58.160 --> 00:08:01.800
twelve season he has nineteen. Oh
I really got like seven because he didn't

90
00:08:01.839 --> 00:08:07.959
play well. Well, that's on
him. But my thing about that is,

91
00:08:09.600 --> 00:08:13.399
I mean when you talk about his
his accolades like first NBA team,

92
00:08:13.480 --> 00:08:16.519
first real quick, real quick is
dre? Was he a top seventy five?

93
00:08:16.800 --> 00:08:20.720
Who andre ig Dolla? No?
Was Kawhi at top seventy five?

94
00:08:22.079 --> 00:08:26.480
No? You sure I don't remember. I don't think he is okay because

95
00:08:26.480 --> 00:08:30.600
he was hurt too much during that
time. He was hurt. Double check.

96
00:08:31.279 --> 00:08:35.240
My thing about this is when you
compare, let's go, we compare

97
00:08:35.679 --> 00:08:43.759
statistics. Kawhi's stats are better than
his? Are they percentage? This is

98
00:08:43.879 --> 00:08:48.840
percentage. Iggy's is forty six,
Qua's forty nine, three point range,

99
00:08:50.080 --> 00:08:56.919
Iggy's thirty three leonards, thirty eight
free throw seventy, He's eighty, Kawha's

100
00:08:56.960 --> 00:09:01.600
eighty five. Kawhi averaged more points
than him. He is on there,

101
00:09:01.759 --> 00:09:07.080
Yeah, average more rebounds than him. Uh, he's averaged more blocks than

102
00:09:07.200 --> 00:09:11.320
him. So let me a better
defensive players. No comparison. So I

103
00:09:11.360 --> 00:09:18.759
think that I really wanted to play
the clip. But but my only issue

104
00:09:18.879 --> 00:09:24.399
is what that is. Kawhi came
into a great situation which helped him develop

105
00:09:24.399 --> 00:09:28.840
a little bit faster. Iggy went
to the Warriors. Later on, it

106
00:09:30.679 --> 00:09:35.639
was Kawhi was drafted. Though he
was drafted. Can I finish getting on

107
00:09:35.720 --> 00:09:37.240
what I was saying? Go ahead, out your interruptions, go ahead and

108
00:09:37.279 --> 00:09:41.200
cover for him, Lebron. I'm
not covering for him. I'm just speaking

109
00:09:41.360 --> 00:09:50.279
speaking, speaking facts speaking Kawhi came
into a great situation with Tim Duncan and

110
00:09:50.320 --> 00:09:54.799
Tony Parker and man Je them three. There was three automatic Hall of famers

111
00:09:54.799 --> 00:09:56.480
when he came there, they was
automatically gonna be Hall of Famers. He

112
00:09:56.519 --> 00:10:03.440
was drafted. The only person Iggy
came into was who Yeah I sent Yeah,

113
00:10:03.559 --> 00:10:07.480
I cent in Philly. He went
when he came had I in Philly,

114
00:10:07.919 --> 00:10:13.000
Phillye we finished. I'm not gonna
bet you can you can you feeling

115
00:10:15.120 --> 00:10:18.559
When Iggy came to Philly, Iverson
was on his way out the door.

116
00:10:18.080 --> 00:10:22.519
They played four or five seasons together. They were like two. They played

117
00:10:22.559 --> 00:10:26.440
one two seasons, one season together, and then they gave the keys to

118
00:10:26.480 --> 00:10:30.559
Iggy. Remember, yeah, what
I'm saying like Irison season together. Iris

119
00:10:30.799 --> 00:10:35.519
was on his way out because Iggy
got drafted high. Yeah was like twelve.

120
00:10:39.120 --> 00:10:43.480
No, I'm serious. I think
it's I don't know what it was.

121
00:10:43.480 --> 00:10:48.240
I just feel like I'm gonna play
this clip. Y'all looked that up.

122
00:10:48.240 --> 00:10:56.039
I'll played this clip dollars better than
Kawhi Leonard to me when we're don't

123
00:10:56.080 --> 00:11:00.919
talk about the defense the series before
he gets Kevin Durant, you gotta whooped

124
00:11:01.360 --> 00:11:05.759
Kevin Durnt was bopping hiss. Do
not sit here and use his defense as

125
00:11:05.840 --> 00:11:13.279
like he dominated defensive. He got
molly wopped with that first year that you're

126
00:11:13.320 --> 00:11:16.759
doing. H you're around round by. I mean, if that's what you

127
00:11:16.799 --> 00:11:20.000
want to, that's what you want
to go. And what happened after that?

128
00:11:20.039 --> 00:11:22.039
And what happened after that? Okay, nobody wants to after that.

129
00:11:22.120 --> 00:11:26.799
I'm telling you this. If you're
you and you gave me thirty two a

130
00:11:26.879 --> 00:11:31.879
game, fifty from the field,
fifty from three, and then the papers

131
00:11:31.960 --> 00:11:33.879
is going around saying, man,
you stop. Brandon Jenning's what is your

132
00:11:33.879 --> 00:11:41.360
face? We lost no stock?
Your face like this? You're gonna say

133
00:11:41.360 --> 00:11:43.080
this? He was barbecue chicken.
Well I want to go. I want

134
00:11:43.120 --> 00:11:46.399
him to guard me every game.
Yeah, your team is better than mine,

135
00:11:46.519 --> 00:11:50.679
but you defensively barbecue chip. So
what has happened? What has happened

136
00:11:50.639 --> 00:11:56.120
since? I don't agree with a
lot that Gilbert Arena says, why not

137
00:11:56.960 --> 00:12:01.480
because he's a clown In most cases
like that, Yanni's hate is too much

138
00:12:01.519 --> 00:12:05.120
for me. What yes he does? I don't say he hat. I

139
00:12:05.120 --> 00:12:11.399
think that he speaks a lot of
He said the things that people don't want

140
00:12:11.399 --> 00:12:13.919
to really say, says the things
we whisper in Milwaukee. So the things

141
00:12:13.919 --> 00:12:18.080
that I say, I'm a hater, but because he says it, it's

142
00:12:18.120 --> 00:12:20.080
true. Okay, but you just
said he talks a bunch of nothings,

143
00:12:20.080 --> 00:12:24.320
So that means you're talking a bunch
of nothing because you just said he said

144
00:12:24.639 --> 00:12:33.399
and then he hated hard when all
the time he's not a superstar. No,

145
00:12:33.480 --> 00:12:37.000
he said something about his basketball IQ, which I've said many times.

146
00:12:37.919 --> 00:12:41.759
But anyway, back to your question. They paid two and a half seasons

147
00:12:41.759 --> 00:12:45.240
together. He played in Philly,
Eric Snow. He had a bunch of

148
00:12:45.279 --> 00:12:52.240
other players that came after that.
When he signed with nobody who played with

149
00:12:52.960 --> 00:12:58.759
Can anybody Iggy Dollald compare to hear? I think about what nobody who about

150
00:13:00.039 --> 00:13:05.759
good Dollar play with can compare to
the players that Kawhi played with, Steph

151
00:13:05.879 --> 00:13:09.159
Curry, who was a hole in
the wall step about in the beginning of

152
00:13:09.200 --> 00:13:13.399
their careers. So so so why
first three years he had Tim Duncan,

153
00:13:13.799 --> 00:13:20.720
Tony Parker Man, Sean Elliott.
He was the new guy. So so

154
00:13:20.720 --> 00:13:24.519
so he's at fault because he was
drafted. No, I'm not saying he's

155
00:13:24.519 --> 00:13:26.679
at fault, but I'm saying,
when you compare the two, they're in

156
00:13:26.679 --> 00:13:31.879
two different situations. That don't matter. Y'all asked the question. You asked

157
00:13:31.879 --> 00:13:35.360
the question. You can't say,
well, it's two different and Iggy was

158
00:13:35.360 --> 00:13:39.080
more athletic than me. So here's
what I'm gonna tell you, and I'll

159
00:13:39.120 --> 00:13:43.519
leave it at this. If I'm
picking a player, I'm picking Kawhi.

160
00:13:43.320 --> 00:13:48.200
Is he gonna play a lot less? Absolutely, that doesn't mean Iggy didn't

161
00:13:48.200 --> 00:13:52.320
have a good career, But Kawhi
Leonard statistically is a better player. Offensively,

162
00:13:52.440 --> 00:13:56.200
is a better player defensively? Is
a better player. Now, what

163
00:13:56.279 --> 00:14:01.440
I will say is I Q for
the game. Giggy might get a notch.

164
00:14:01.759 --> 00:14:05.360
It could be coaching in a year
two, he'll probably get Golden State

165
00:14:05.399 --> 00:14:07.399
with Steve kirk Walks. So what
if you look at their first three years?

166
00:14:07.679 --> 00:14:13.039
Who was better Kawahi by a lot? Oh? No, you first

167
00:14:13.080 --> 00:14:18.799
three years? Five? Their first
three season? Feel like Iggy who had

168
00:14:18.799 --> 00:14:22.720
a better first five years? Today? Here here's Iggy stats. Oh four

169
00:14:22.759 --> 00:14:30.559
oh five he averaged in points uh
he averaged nine points, five rebound,

170
00:14:30.639 --> 00:14:37.879
five point seven rebounds, three assists. Year two twelve point three points uh

171
00:14:37.159 --> 00:14:43.120
five point nine assists, three point
one rebounds. Uh second season or third

172
00:14:43.159 --> 00:14:48.919
season eighteen points, five point seven
assists, five point seven rebounds. Right,

173
00:14:48.000 --> 00:14:52.639
So that's that's Iggy. So I'll
say this hold second hold, give

174
00:14:52.679 --> 00:14:58.799
you Kawhi hold on their best two
seasons. Kawhi bestie was twenty twenty.

175
00:14:58.799 --> 00:15:01.919
That was his best season. Uh, Iggy best season was twenty eight,

176
00:15:03.080 --> 00:15:09.320
was two thousand and eight. Kawhi
average twenty seven. He averaged nineteen.

177
00:15:09.759 --> 00:15:13.759
And let's not forget Kawhi came in
many years later. Kawhi came in twenty

178
00:15:13.799 --> 00:15:18.679
eleven. Yeah, he came in
twenty oh four. Okay, so Kawhi

179
00:15:18.759 --> 00:15:24.759
Leonard, Okay, his average points
here. Let's see. But you're you're

180
00:15:24.799 --> 00:15:28.320
comparing you when you can what you're
looking at is apple and oranges? No,

181
00:15:28.399 --> 00:15:31.840
because you asked the question. What
I'm looking at is the question that

182
00:15:31.919 --> 00:15:35.279
you ask The question I asked was
now the Kesey's point, I'm gonna ask

183
00:15:35.320 --> 00:15:41.279
he answer question. The first three
seasons, I had a better better statistic

184
00:15:41.360 --> 00:15:48.039
points and rebounds those first three seasons, but after that there was no catching

185
00:15:48.080 --> 00:15:50.879
Kawhi. Those first three seasons,
Kawhi averaged his first year off the bench

186
00:15:50.879 --> 00:15:58.600
seven point nine one assists, five
rebounds. Second season eleven points, six

187
00:15:58.679 --> 00:16:07.039
rebound, one point, six assists, and then he went up twelve points.

188
00:16:07.240 --> 00:16:11.879
But after that, Kawhi blows him
out the water statistically every single season.

189
00:16:11.080 --> 00:16:15.879
But here's the here's a problem with
basketball. And I get it.

190
00:16:15.879 --> 00:16:21.039
It makes for great talk, it
makes for great TV. We can't just

191
00:16:21.159 --> 00:16:25.559
appreciate that they're both were good to
their team. We can't appreciate that.

192
00:16:25.639 --> 00:16:29.320
I say, hold up, we
have to say who was better because that's

193
00:16:29.320 --> 00:16:32.559
what we do. That's what we
do. So at the end of the

194
00:16:32.639 --> 00:16:36.639
day, but that's straticlarly, that's
what they did their job. Who's better

195
00:16:37.000 --> 00:16:41.600
mister Douglas or so and so.
So we're gonna package over there. We're

196
00:16:41.600 --> 00:16:45.159
gonna pick with the Douglas because he's
he's better. So what I'm saying is

197
00:16:45.679 --> 00:16:48.840
Iggy had a good career. He
will be a Hall of Famer. But

198
00:16:48.919 --> 00:16:52.440
y'all saying that first ballot I don't
think he is. There's a lot of

199
00:16:52.440 --> 00:16:55.600
first ballot people that are probably better
than him that's not in it yet.

200
00:16:56.120 --> 00:16:59.480
I don't know. I will say
I was Like I said before, it

201
00:16:59.480 --> 00:17:02.919
depends on his class. But I
think he's a first ballot Hall of Famer.

202
00:17:03.399 --> 00:17:06.000
I don't see why he wouldn't be
when you have guys like to me.

203
00:17:06.640 --> 00:17:10.599
To me, Iggy falls in that
category of Robert Or. Was he

204
00:17:10.640 --> 00:17:15.240
first ballot? I think he was
first ballot. He falls in that category.

205
00:17:15.559 --> 00:17:21.839
Uh right, Yeah, I know
what's gonna have four no matter how

206
00:17:21.880 --> 00:17:26.799
you got him, he has four. Iggy, he contribute, hentribute.

207
00:17:26.799 --> 00:17:30.759
I'm saying. That's what I'm saying, Like I'm y'all saying he not a

208
00:17:30.799 --> 00:17:33.240
first battle That's what I was like. Really, I think he's a first

209
00:17:33.240 --> 00:17:37.200
ballot Hall of Famer to me because
because he may not be the star,

210
00:17:37.400 --> 00:17:41.799
but he contributes to your team and
he can. He's contributed to all four

211
00:17:41.839 --> 00:17:47.519
of those championships. And according unless
I'm reading it wrong, Robert Or is

212
00:17:47.559 --> 00:17:49.319
not even in the Hall of Fame. I felt he was. He's not

213
00:17:49.359 --> 00:17:52.480
even in the Hall of Fame.
He's in the Alabama Sports Hall of Fame,

214
00:17:52.720 --> 00:17:56.799
but he's not in the Basketball Hall
of Fame. Double check on man.

215
00:17:57.599 --> 00:18:06.480
But and here's why they say,
Robert Or, although he has seven

216
00:18:06.599 --> 00:18:12.440
championships, his career does not scream
Hall of Fame. He's one of the

217
00:18:12.519 --> 00:18:19.559
greatest role players in NBA history.
The Hall of Fame isn't solely based on

218
00:18:21.160 --> 00:18:26.240
numbers. But ain't you the one
who said Andre Doland had a I said

219
00:18:26.240 --> 00:18:30.039
he had a good career, a
good, good role player. And he

220
00:18:30.079 --> 00:18:33.119
asked, is he first ballot?
I said, he's so, I'm telling

221
00:18:33.160 --> 00:18:36.480
him, I'm telling him to listen. Yeah, so he is not first

222
00:18:36.519 --> 00:18:41.640
ballot, and according to this he
might. He might not be All of

223
00:18:41.680 --> 00:18:45.720
Famer at all. If they're judging
Robert Or, who has seven rings and

224
00:18:45.759 --> 00:18:52.480
they call him big shot rob to
now, let Sports America here, According

225
00:18:52.519 --> 00:18:56.440
to what I'm reading, the only
Hall of Fame that Robert Or is for

226
00:18:56.559 --> 00:19:02.079
all my fact checkers out there,
he is only in the Alabama Sports Hall

227
00:19:02.119 --> 00:19:06.319
of Fame in twenty ten. See
to me, that's a tragedy. He

228
00:19:06.440 --> 00:19:11.519
is not in the Hall of Fame. Had seven championships and he's not in

229
00:19:11.519 --> 00:19:15.480
the Hall of Fame. So if
you're telling me that Iggy is a first

230
00:19:15.559 --> 00:19:19.960
ballot Hall of Famer for his mediocre
role player career, then I question,

231
00:19:21.319 --> 00:19:25.839
it's not low. He did have
it. He was a mediocre role player.

232
00:19:26.119 --> 00:19:30.480
I happened to stop Lebron thing.
Either, He's good or he's mediocre,

233
00:19:30.240 --> 00:19:33.720
he's good. Five, he's good. Are you taking Robert or are

234
00:19:33.759 --> 00:19:41.559
you taking Iggy? I'll take Egy. I'm taking big shot rob I'm taking

235
00:19:41.640 --> 00:19:47.240
because you know what all them big
shots translated into what seven titles. Yeah,

236
00:19:47.400 --> 00:19:49.240
that's what I'm saying, like we
should be we should be more shocked

237
00:19:49.279 --> 00:19:52.640
than he's not in the Hall of
Fame. But man, Yeahbert, nothing

238
00:19:52.720 --> 00:19:56.440
shocked me because you never heard his
name until a big shot. You know

239
00:19:56.480 --> 00:20:00.920
who else had big shots? Steve
Kerr, John Packs hold on second time,

240
00:20:00.920 --> 00:20:03.640
I talk about time about Tony Parker
is in the Hall of Fame.

241
00:20:04.359 --> 00:20:08.279
He's one of the greatest foreign players
to ever played the game. Come on,

242
00:20:14.000 --> 00:20:15.720
Baron Davis is in the Hall of
Fame. Tony Parker had a ten

243
00:20:15.799 --> 00:20:21.240
year stretch where you can guard him, especially with the mid range pick a

244
00:20:21.319 --> 00:20:23.839
roll with Duncan. He was unguardable. He was in a system. Stop

245
00:20:23.920 --> 00:20:29.160
it. He's an assistem. Is
he top ten? Top ten? What

246
00:20:29.359 --> 00:20:37.839
point guards all time? Possibly?
Who park Yes? All time? He's

247
00:20:37.839 --> 00:20:41.680
on the top seventy five. I
didn't ask you that. I said is

248
00:20:41.720 --> 00:20:45.680
he top ten all time? To
you? To you, I'll just say

249
00:20:45.680 --> 00:20:48.720
this to you, is he top
ten point guard of all time for the

250
00:20:48.960 --> 00:20:52.640
era? Listen, I have to
answer it. No, you could have

251
00:20:52.640 --> 00:20:55.079
tap dance around, he said,
yes, and no, hold up?

252
00:20:55.240 --> 00:21:00.720
Is he top ten all time?
And since I've been watching basketball and the

253
00:21:00.799 --> 00:21:06.599
Earth, I'm zeke. You gotta
let me answer it with myself because you

254
00:21:07.240 --> 00:21:12.799
from nineteen ninety to present. I
started watching ball in nineteen ninety when I

255
00:21:12.799 --> 00:21:18.920
could understand the game. From nineteen
ninety to present, Yes, he's a

256
00:21:18.039 --> 00:21:22.279
top ten. See when you see
when you have that terminology, when you

257
00:21:22.440 --> 00:21:23.599
when you put when you where you're
putting it right now? Because I know

258
00:21:23.599 --> 00:21:26.279
what you're doing, so when you
put it right now? So I mean

259
00:21:26.359 --> 00:21:32.440
Oscar Robberson throwing out the window?
No, because you thought you said from

260
00:21:33.160 --> 00:21:37.279
you thought him out the windows?
Ball playing ninety Chris Paul, Chris Paul's

261
00:21:37.279 --> 00:21:45.119
top ten point guards? I said, Chris Paul the top ten. But

262
00:21:45.160 --> 00:21:48.759
who had a better career? Well, well, well, Chris Paul will

263
00:21:48.799 --> 00:21:52.440
have better stats when it's all said
and done. Did y'all see his stat

264
00:21:52.519 --> 00:21:56.920
recently? In six games, he
only has six turnovers and fifty four assists.

265
00:21:56.079 --> 00:22:00.440
Yeah, zero points, but you
don't need them for that. But

266
00:22:00.480 --> 00:22:04.960
the point, my point is that
my point is this though, like I

267
00:22:06.119 --> 00:22:08.119
just asked, was he in your
top ten? And I know he's nineteen

268
00:22:08.200 --> 00:22:15.640
ninety to president, Yes, I've
never seen him play. Is not I

269
00:22:15.640 --> 00:22:19.599
have never seen him play. I've
never people that are in my top ten.

270
00:22:19.720 --> 00:22:22.920
I got at number seventeen on list
I know. That's why I asked,

271
00:22:23.000 --> 00:22:27.599
y'all, park Parker, who's above
them? Who's above them? And

272
00:22:27.680 --> 00:22:32.880
here's how this argument started is because
he thinks Iggy deserves Hall of Fame over

273
00:22:32.960 --> 00:22:34.400
Tony Parker. No, I say, I think he deserves to be in

274
00:22:34.400 --> 00:22:41.240
the Hall of Fame. Walf Fraser, Walt Fraser, Yeah, Okay,

275
00:22:41.359 --> 00:22:47.680
what's the book? Okay? You
average triple double? Gary Payton yeah.

276
00:22:48.240 --> 00:22:52.680
Jason Kidd, Yes, he can
beat out tone because I don't even know

277
00:22:52.759 --> 00:22:59.599
him. Steve Nash No, yes, absolutely not. John Yes, yes,

278
00:23:00.279 --> 00:23:06.519
Chris Paul yes, Isaiah Thomas yes. Jerry West yes, doctor Jerry

279
00:23:06.559 --> 00:23:10.000
West. Yes, you lay out
falls. You didn't see him play,

280
00:23:10.200 --> 00:23:12.039
but he's the logo. Didn't see
him play. He's the logo, But

281
00:23:12.160 --> 00:23:15.680
you didn't see him play. When
we're going home to be with the Lord

282
00:23:17.079 --> 00:23:22.480
and our kids and our nieces are
still and our kids are still wearing George's

283
00:23:22.480 --> 00:23:26.359
You know what they're gonna say,
Michael Jordan was the greatest player to ever

284
00:23:26.400 --> 00:23:30.839
play, because they're still wearing the
shoes going on what you said. Yeah,

285
00:23:30.960 --> 00:23:33.559
in some cases, but he's the
logo Steph Curry. Clearly, I

286
00:23:33.519 --> 00:23:37.319
don't know that he's a shooting gun. Definitely, he's a shooting gun.

287
00:23:37.519 --> 00:23:41.519
So Tony Parker top twenty of all
time, Okay, I said top ten.

288
00:23:42.359 --> 00:23:48.400
Kyrie Irving should be there, top
twenty five. But anyway, Iggy

289
00:23:48.279 --> 00:23:55.519
had a Hall of Fame. Let
me say this. If I had a

290
00:23:55.640 --> 00:24:00.880
vote between Iggy and Kawhi and there
was one spot left in the Hall of

291
00:24:00.920 --> 00:24:04.119
Fame, He's not getting that spot. That's how I'll say it. He

292
00:24:04.200 --> 00:24:07.279
had a good season, as he
had a good career as a role player.

293
00:24:07.359 --> 00:24:11.119
I feel like we talked about the
Hall of Fame situation. I feel

294
00:24:11.160 --> 00:24:17.079
like a lot of people who get
into the Hall of Fame, in my

295
00:24:17.160 --> 00:24:19.319
opinion, shouldn't be there. Like
oh, you keep saying that, Like

296
00:24:19.440 --> 00:24:22.200
who, I don't know. If
the talk of my hair, I don't

297
00:24:22.240 --> 00:24:23.559
know. I'm not gonna put my
foot in my mouth like some other people.

298
00:24:25.160 --> 00:24:26.160
Well, because you said Baron Davis
is in the Hall of Fame.

299
00:24:26.400 --> 00:24:29.799
I don't know if he's in the
Hall of Fame, but Davis, she

300
00:24:29.880 --> 00:24:34.839
should be in the top twenty eight
guards, maybe the knees to top twenty

301
00:24:34.839 --> 00:24:37.960
five. My thing is this,
I just feel like he should be in

302
00:24:38.000 --> 00:24:41.160
the Hall of Fame. First ball
the Hall of Famer. I think he

303
00:24:41.200 --> 00:24:44.480
had the career. I think the
championship solidified it. When he was in

304
00:24:44.519 --> 00:24:48.920
Philadelphia, he was he was a
one man show. So I feel like,

305
00:24:48.160 --> 00:24:52.440
oh, Iggy, I feel like
he needs to be in the Hall

306
00:24:52.480 --> 00:24:56.559
of Fame. I'm not saying that
he's not. I think Vince Carter is

307
00:24:56.599 --> 00:25:00.359
in the Hall of Fame, so
like, don't, I just don't.

308
00:25:00.440 --> 00:25:02.960
I just feel like he deserves to
be in the Hall of Fame. Will

309
00:25:03.759 --> 00:25:07.039
question you asked, was what was
her first ballot? And we say yes,

your responses on the air next week or

318
00:25:41.920 --> 00:25:47.079
if we get him this week.
I'm sorry, go ahead, bro.

319
00:25:47.599 --> 00:25:49.640
Oh but you said Vince Carter or
you said something about the Gills Show.

320
00:25:49.799 --> 00:25:52.440
No, he asked, who's on
the Gill Show? It is Chris Christ

321
00:25:52.519 --> 00:26:00.079
James, it's Uh Jennings, the
guy who the guy shot him can and

322
00:26:00.160 --> 00:26:03.079
Kendy Martin, Kenya Martin. Speaking
of Martin, keeping it a little too

323
00:26:03.119 --> 00:26:07.160
real, yea, now I want
to talk about it. Remind me of

324
00:26:07.200 --> 00:26:12.839
Stephen Jackson, like borderline angry.
He don't care. No, Keny Martin

325
00:26:12.920 --> 00:26:17.759
is I'm gonna spit. I'm gonna
split the truth regardless. Yeah, I

326
00:26:17.799 --> 00:26:22.319
don't care. So here's my thing. Speaking of Kenya Martin, his son

327
00:26:22.400 --> 00:26:26.240
was a part of the most recent
trade. I just want to I'm gonna

328
00:26:26.240 --> 00:26:29.720
speak on that after I'll say this. But this past week, James Harden

329
00:26:29.759 --> 00:26:34.559
was traded finally traded to the Los
Angeles Clippers along with PJ. Tucker and

330
00:26:34.680 --> 00:26:40.960
flip some guy somebody, dude,
I'm not even gonna try. Uh.

331
00:26:41.000 --> 00:26:47.759
In exchange in Philadelphia seventy six years
acquired Marcus Morris, H Nicholas Batua,

332
00:26:48.759 --> 00:26:55.839
the Batoon, and then Robert Covington
kJ Martin in a twenty twenty eight unprotected

333
00:26:55.839 --> 00:26:59.920
first round pick, two second round
picks, a pick swap, and a

334
00:27:00.079 --> 00:27:02.880
first round pick from a third team
that hasn't been announced. Yeah, it

335
00:27:02.880 --> 00:27:03.759
should be announced, but I don't
know what it is. I just want

336
00:27:03.799 --> 00:27:07.640
to say this before you continue.
I'm gonna share this out on our pages

337
00:27:07.680 --> 00:27:11.720
and I'm gonna share it with you
all. Just at a first glance,

338
00:27:14.000 --> 00:27:17.079
just at the first glance of the
Hall of Fame of some of the NBA

339
00:27:17.200 --> 00:27:19.480
players, there's not a lot of
role players in this thing that, like

340
00:27:19.519 --> 00:27:22.680
you say, shouldn't be in the
Hall of Fame. There's not a lot

341
00:27:22.680 --> 00:27:25.559
of role players in here. Now
you hold up. Now, you may

342
00:27:25.599 --> 00:27:27.839
see some names that you may not
know, because remember the Hall of Fame.

343
00:27:29.079 --> 00:27:33.720
Hold up, it's not just NBA, it's basketball period. But a

344
00:27:33.720 --> 00:27:37.039
lot of these NBA player names you
see are not role players. I just

345
00:27:37.079 --> 00:27:40.599
want you to know that while you're
making the case for Iggy. No,

346
00:27:41.079 --> 00:27:44.160
and here's my thing, because I
was gonna let his die and let it

347
00:27:44.200 --> 00:27:49.319
be No, we can we can't. I'm yeah, yeah, bring it

348
00:27:49.359 --> 00:27:52.279
back. Like Chris Mullet, for
example, he wasn't a role player.

349
00:27:52.319 --> 00:27:56.680
He was a star for Golden State. Right. Is he a Hall of

350
00:27:56.720 --> 00:27:59.359
Famer in your eyes? Yes?
Or no? Okay? Does he have

351
00:27:59.440 --> 00:28:03.599
championships? I just want to know, No, No, no champions How

352
00:28:03.599 --> 00:28:06.440
many people are in the Hall of
Fame from the NBA? Man, hundred,

353
00:28:06.960 --> 00:28:12.680
I'm gonna send you all this players, hundreds, you know, But

354
00:28:12.720 --> 00:28:17.759
I think it'd be dope for us
to dive in. And we're gonna dive

355
00:28:17.799 --> 00:28:22.680
in. We're gonna dive in.
Matter of fact, next week, let's

356
00:28:22.680 --> 00:28:27.279
see what happens. But we're gonna
talk about people who do not do not,

357
00:28:29.200 --> 00:28:30.240
in your opinion, deserve to be
in the Hall of Fame from the

358
00:28:30.319 --> 00:28:34.759
NBA, from the NBA. We
will talk about it next week. But

359
00:28:36.559 --> 00:28:41.240
onto this trade. So kJ Martin, real quick, So kJ Martin,

360
00:28:41.240 --> 00:28:45.960
which is the son of Kenyam Martin. He talked about trades, and he

361
00:28:47.039 --> 00:28:49.880
talked about trades affecting your family and
how its business. He got he got

362
00:28:49.960 --> 00:28:55.559
emotional talking about it, which I
thought was very interesting because it made it

363
00:28:55.680 --> 00:28:59.680
reminded me of the Drew Holliday trade. I'm gonna say, I've seen missus

364
00:28:59.680 --> 00:29:03.119
hollow Day when it happened with Missus
Holliday, when she talked about it,

365
00:29:03.160 --> 00:29:06.200
and she talked about it how and
people talk about it in general, how

366
00:29:07.759 --> 00:29:11.279
you don't think people don't think of
it as a business even though it's a

367
00:29:11.319 --> 00:29:15.839
business move. And the way these
players find out it's so messed up when

368
00:29:15.880 --> 00:29:19.279
they actually talk about it. But
it just reminded me, like he got

369
00:29:19.279 --> 00:29:22.079
emotional talking about how you know,
he had to tell like he had to

370
00:29:22.079 --> 00:29:26.960
tell his wife, His wife got
emotional. He was emotional, OKJ was

371
00:29:26.960 --> 00:29:30.480
emotional when he was talking about it
as far as like him getting traded because

372
00:29:30.519 --> 00:29:36.960
he loved being uh in La.
So it's just one of them things where

373
00:29:37.000 --> 00:29:40.759
I'm just like, wow, it
just it just it just hit a little

374
00:29:40.759 --> 00:29:42.920
differently. I mean, we'll go
and when we talk about the Bucks talk,

375
00:29:42.960 --> 00:29:45.920
we'll kind of, you know,
talk about how Drew I don't think

376
00:29:45.920 --> 00:29:48.440
he was dead wrong, but when
you come down to it, like what's

377
00:29:48.480 --> 00:29:52.640
the what's the right way and what's
the wrong way to approach the trade.

378
00:29:52.759 --> 00:29:57.599
I know, but should there be
it Should it be strictly business? Should

379
00:29:57.640 --> 00:30:00.920
you have the courtesy call somebody up
like, hey, just want to let

380
00:30:00.960 --> 00:30:04.599
you know, matter of fact,
in this trade, Danny Green got released

381
00:30:04.640 --> 00:30:10.000
from Philadelphia. He said, I
had literally unpacked ninety percent of my stuff.

382
00:30:10.799 --> 00:30:12.400
Maury called him, was like,
hey, I know you unpack it

383
00:30:12.440 --> 00:30:17.400
right now, but uh, you
might want to put that stuff back.

384
00:30:17.480 --> 00:30:22.960
So so let me just say this
to that point. Who's he called Danny

385
00:30:22.960 --> 00:30:26.559
Green? He was like, I'm
ninety percent unpacked and and I get this

386
00:30:26.640 --> 00:30:29.559
phone call like, hey, I
just want to let you know there was

387
00:30:29.599 --> 00:30:33.160
a trade, and you will.
So it just so happened. They we

388
00:30:33.279 --> 00:30:37.200
have X amount of players on the
team. You're the extra man. We're

389
00:30:37.240 --> 00:30:40.319
gonna release you. So here here's
the thing. But they usually he usually

390
00:30:40.319 --> 00:30:41.319
they usually don't do that. But
I just want to focus right now.

391
00:30:41.359 --> 00:30:44.680
I just want to focus on the
trade. Shrew Holliday got traded in church,

392
00:30:44.799 --> 00:30:45.880
so I don't want to hear that
they don't do that. He got

393
00:30:45.920 --> 00:30:49.200
traded in worship. He said,
he got He said he was laying down

394
00:30:49.240 --> 00:30:52.839
something like that. I was the
first trade. The second trade, happened

395
00:30:52.880 --> 00:30:56.519
while the man was in church,
because I know because I walked to him

396
00:30:56.559 --> 00:30:59.319
and his wife in church. Please, we don't need this stuff for us.

397
00:30:59.400 --> 00:31:02.400
I'm not Stunn, but you're questioning
if it's true or not. He

398
00:31:02.559 --> 00:31:06.359
was literally in church when he got
traded to the Boston Celtics, was literally

399
00:31:06.480 --> 00:31:10.440
in church. But to answer your
so are you asking us a two part

400
00:31:10.519 --> 00:31:14.119
questions? No, I was gonna
focus on James Harden trade. Oh geez,

401
00:31:14.799 --> 00:31:18.640
I feel bad for the Clippers.
Really, yeah, continue because he's

402
00:31:18.640 --> 00:31:22.160
the fourth team now that he's done
that, he's bullied his way too.

403
00:31:22.759 --> 00:31:26.480
He's bullied his way to every single
team except the Houston Rockets, and he's

404
00:31:26.519 --> 00:31:30.720
done nothing with none of those teams. So good luck to the Clippers and

405
00:31:30.880 --> 00:31:36.440
that culture of my way or the
highway. You have a Kawhi Leonard who

406
00:31:36.519 --> 00:31:41.720
barely plays. You have a Paul
George that you are often called playoff p

407
00:31:41.640 --> 00:31:47.400
who does not close in the finals. You got Russell Westbrook, who I

408
00:31:47.440 --> 00:31:52.599
think people are hard on for no
reason, overly hard on, overly hard

409
00:31:52.640 --> 00:31:57.599
on Westbrook, and now you're adding
James Harden to the mix. I'm gonna

410
00:31:57.640 --> 00:32:00.400
say this, like I said about
my books that I'm sure. I can't

411
00:32:00.440 --> 00:32:06.680
wait till we talk about Los Angeles
Clippers championship or bust no excuses, and

412
00:32:06.680 --> 00:32:13.559
you're not beating Denver, you're not
beating Golden State. And Harden did he

413
00:32:13.640 --> 00:32:16.000
even re sign an extension right away? Or is he gonna be available next

414
00:32:16.000 --> 00:32:20.680
season? Yeah, that's try,
that's whack to me. I'm so tired

415
00:32:20.680 --> 00:32:24.160
of James Harden. I'm so tired
of it because he does the same thing.

416
00:32:24.680 --> 00:32:29.559
How many super You know how we
dogged Lebron and KD for Superstars?

417
00:32:30.720 --> 00:32:34.880
How many does he need? He's
now, let's talk about James Harden.

418
00:32:36.759 --> 00:32:39.039
He couldn't get it done in Okay. See he had Russy, No,

419
00:32:39.039 --> 00:32:45.039
no, no, my moment,
but I love it. He had Russy,

420
00:32:46.359 --> 00:32:51.759
he had k D. He had
Abaca or Shabaka as you like to

421
00:32:51.759 --> 00:32:54.799
say, all in their pride,
all in their prime did. He went

422
00:32:54.839 --> 00:33:00.680
to Houston, he had mellow right, he had Chris Paul kez right,

423
00:33:00.839 --> 00:33:06.119
he had some hitters in Houston.
Couldn't get it done, bullet his way

424
00:33:06.160 --> 00:33:09.160
out of Houston and went to where
Brooklyn? Was it Brooklyn? He had

425
00:33:09.240 --> 00:33:15.720
Katie again, he had Kyrie again. They didn't even play twenty games and

426
00:33:15.759 --> 00:33:20.400
he was out of there bullet his
way to Philly. He had Embiid,

427
00:33:21.640 --> 00:33:24.920
he had Tarby's MAXI not a superstar, but a great role player, right?

428
00:33:25.119 --> 00:33:30.799
A great role player? Is he
not? He had Joe l Embiid.

429
00:33:30.880 --> 00:33:35.480
He had a winning formula in Philly
and couldn't get it done either.

430
00:33:35.920 --> 00:33:43.839
Now he's going to the Clippers with
a half injured Kawhi, occasional injured Paul

431
00:33:43.920 --> 00:33:47.720
George and with some would say a
six or seventh man in Westbrook? What

432
00:33:47.839 --> 00:33:52.359
is different about this Clippers situation than
any other team he's been, other than

433
00:33:52.400 --> 00:33:55.359
it being on the West Coast.
I'm done because I don't like it.

434
00:33:55.400 --> 00:34:02.279
I just like it. It burns. You do this because when you do

435
00:34:02.319 --> 00:34:07.160
this, you talk about cause you
talk about set them on fire, he

436
00:34:07.160 --> 00:34:12.960
said, biscuits. I me on
fire because when you talk about these superstars

437
00:34:13.039 --> 00:34:15.599
that James Harden had, did not
do you not do it to Lebron?

438
00:34:15.840 --> 00:34:19.679
Do you not do it to Lebron? Lebron is different? You know it

439
00:34:19.679 --> 00:34:23.639
is? That's number one? Did
you not do it to KD? You

440
00:34:23.639 --> 00:34:28.159
do with KD? Is James Harden
not a top shooting guard to ever play

441
00:34:28.159 --> 00:34:32.079
this game. Yes, Can I
finish them? Can I finish you finish

442
00:34:34.840 --> 00:34:38.159
dictor? My think about it is
this number one. Okay, don't count.

443
00:34:38.760 --> 00:34:42.679
He's young, you don't count.
Don't tell me you had Russell Westbrook

444
00:34:42.880 --> 00:34:45.079
and k D. They was they
were drafted there, don't tell me.

445
00:34:45.079 --> 00:34:51.320
But I don't care about that.
Had KD and Brooklyn? Get for me?

446
00:34:52.559 --> 00:34:54.920
So and then you want to talk
about where do he go out there?

447
00:34:55.000 --> 00:35:00.119
He went to Houston. Houston that
was prime James Harden back. He

448
00:35:00.599 --> 00:35:05.039
went back to back MVP but scoring
titles. He was the man back then.

449
00:35:05.079 --> 00:35:07.519
And Houston he can he was a
one man showing Houston. I'll give

450
00:35:07.519 --> 00:35:12.039
you that. I don't even think
he really had like who he had.

451
00:35:12.320 --> 00:35:15.239
He had a nice squad over there, and he was by hisself. He

452
00:35:15.280 --> 00:35:16.920
couldn't get it done. Fine,
I'll give you that. He went to

453
00:35:17.000 --> 00:35:22.760
Brooklyn. Brooklyn was a mess.
Let's just let's hey, Brooklyn was a

454
00:35:22.760 --> 00:35:28.719
mess. Let's just call a spade
a spade. Did actually there I'm saying

455
00:35:28.800 --> 00:35:31.480
it was a mess? Yes or
no? Was it a mess? For

456
00:35:31.519 --> 00:35:36.000
whatever reason? It was a mess. It was a mess. Now he's

457
00:35:36.039 --> 00:35:42.719
in Philly. That being in Philadelphia
probably was his best case scenario. Now,

458
00:35:42.920 --> 00:35:47.000
well second best compared to Houston.
I think about Philly, and bad

459
00:35:47.119 --> 00:35:51.039
is not the guy we think he
is. I'll just put that out there

460
00:35:51.039 --> 00:35:55.239
and leave that alone. But him
him been in that situation, then he

461
00:35:55.280 --> 00:36:00.719
went to So now he's in the
Los Angeles Clippers. Do I think they're

462
00:36:00.719 --> 00:36:02.760
gonna win a championship? No?
Do I think they go they going all

463
00:36:02.800 --> 00:36:07.920
in? Yes? I think they
are because I think Kawhi and Paul George

464
00:36:07.000 --> 00:36:12.960
on their last year they carrich contracts
to either got a year or two.

465
00:36:13.800 --> 00:36:19.119
I think that I didn't even get
to the question before you start reading the

466
00:36:19.119 --> 00:36:22.440
stats. All let me finish,
because what you're talking about is where you're

467
00:36:22.440 --> 00:36:25.960
talking about. You read, you
start reading stats off all the players he

468
00:36:27.000 --> 00:36:30.320
had in Houston. You said said
it was a one man show. That's

469
00:36:30.360 --> 00:36:34.239
a lie, My Mirid, that's
a prime Chris Paul. He had no

470
00:36:34.400 --> 00:36:37.400
prime Chris Paul. You know what
prime Chris Paul was Prime Chris. It

471
00:36:37.519 --> 00:36:44.119
was a New Orleans Hall and the
Clipper. That's when prime Chris Paul was.

472
00:36:44.440 --> 00:36:46.639
Because when Chris Paul was in Houston, he was getting bounced around because

473
00:36:46.679 --> 00:36:52.000
his attitude. Don't tell me that
he was prime Chris Paul still did he

474
00:36:52.079 --> 00:36:54.719
have does he have one of the
come across some guys that were that our

475
00:36:55.119 --> 00:36:59.239
first battle Hall of Famers? Yes, he has come across some. But

476
00:36:59.280 --> 00:37:00.639
these are you talking about? Man? He had a chance to win a

477
00:37:00.719 --> 00:37:05.239
championship with these people. He did
not because he was coming across the seventy

478
00:37:05.239 --> 00:37:08.039
three and nine Golden State Warrior.
Don't act like they wasn't running the floor.

479
00:37:08.639 --> 00:37:13.000
Don't act like King James wasn't doing
anything. He had to come across

480
00:37:13.000 --> 00:37:15.960
the mountains. And the fact that
I have to sit here and get loud

481
00:37:16.000 --> 00:37:20.800
for James Harden because I really don't
like him. You sure, but you

482
00:37:20.920 --> 00:37:22.880
sure? I'm not gonna sit here
and act like he didn't do his thing.

483
00:37:23.559 --> 00:37:30.719
Houston was probably his best case.
Scenaris is a problem. Is he

484
00:37:30.800 --> 00:37:32.199
a problem in the locker room in
f ast Does he have a problem with

485
00:37:32.280 --> 00:37:36.920
management? Yes? I agree with
you one hundred percent. But when you

486
00:37:36.960 --> 00:37:39.880
talk about man, James Harden had
four chances to win a championship. He

487
00:37:39.920 --> 00:37:44.280
did not know. He did not. He did not stop it. Stop

488
00:37:44.320 --> 00:37:46.719
it man, Stop it man.
Because it's only one player in this league.

489
00:37:46.760 --> 00:37:51.119
It's only one player in his league, who can take a team to

490
00:37:51.360 --> 00:37:57.960
the championship at least on a consecutive
basis, whatever consistent basis, Thank you

491
00:37:58.000 --> 00:38:04.679
English professor. Who was his name? It's one player that's not his name?

492
00:38:06.159 --> 00:38:10.599
I think it is what's what's his
name? Thank you? King.

493
00:38:10.760 --> 00:38:17.159
James is the only player they can
do that. Even Steph needed some associates.

494
00:38:17.760 --> 00:38:21.920
What side of this argument are you
on when it comes to James Harden.

495
00:38:23.000 --> 00:38:30.280
James Harden has had some decent rosters. You when you compare his rosters

496
00:38:30.280 --> 00:38:34.440
to some of the rosters that some
of the other superstars walked into and made

497
00:38:34.480 --> 00:38:43.519
it happen or or or even made
it even somewhat successful. Every situation he's

498
00:38:43.559 --> 00:38:47.519
been in, he just disappears when
it when it comes to crunch time playoff

499
00:38:47.559 --> 00:38:54.800
time. So I'm putting it on
him as far as why he don't have

500
00:38:54.840 --> 00:38:59.280
a championship, because he's been in
some situations where he could have got one,

501
00:38:59.760 --> 00:39:05.760
but because he's James Harden, and
James Harden likes to get lost when

502
00:39:05.760 --> 00:39:10.159
the playoff time comes, that is
the problem. So he can't blame nobody

503
00:39:10.239 --> 00:39:14.199
else for why he's not winning.
He got to put the he gotta take

504
00:39:14.199 --> 00:39:17.440
accountability for some of the things that
he didn't do as part of it,

505
00:39:17.719 --> 00:39:22.400
as a part of the deal.
Because in Philly he was putting on the

506
00:39:22.400 --> 00:39:28.480
show when the B was out.
That's facts B come. He just sits

507
00:39:28.519 --> 00:39:32.639
back and just watches them lose.
That doesn't make any sense to me.

508
00:39:34.800 --> 00:39:37.280
You've got to be the same person
you are whether he's there or not.

509
00:39:37.920 --> 00:39:40.840
Like you said, and B,
they who we all think he is.

510
00:39:42.400 --> 00:39:44.960
Let me ask you a question real
quick. Why do y'all keep saying that

511
00:39:45.079 --> 00:39:47.360
he's not. I mean, he's
good. He's good, there's no doubt

512
00:39:47.360 --> 00:39:57.039
about that. But is not a
He's really not a game changer to me.

513
00:39:57.760 --> 00:40:00.360
But he's not a game change.
He's not a team No. I

514
00:40:00.400 --> 00:40:07.719
think he's He's only reason he's top
five as far as position is so is

515
00:40:07.920 --> 00:40:12.719
it is very It's very like who
else we're gonna pick. It's very who

516
00:40:12.719 --> 00:40:16.199
else we're gonna pick. Technically,
I think Cat has a better game than

517
00:40:16.239 --> 00:40:23.119
him. Now we're just getting out
a better game. I can't count on

518
00:40:23.159 --> 00:40:25.920
Cat. I can't count on Cat. Why I can't count on Cat?

519
00:40:25.960 --> 00:40:30.679
Because he is to Uh, Cat
can shoot, but that's a word for

520
00:40:30.760 --> 00:40:34.800
it. But that's his problem.
But Cat can shoot better, Cat can

521
00:40:34.880 --> 00:40:38.079
dribble better. He can't. He
can't handle the Cat got a better handle

522
00:40:38.119 --> 00:40:42.119
the pain. You know what.
Okay, let me we we're gonna dive

523
00:40:42.119 --> 00:40:45.920
into this real quick. Because when
we talk about because we talking about James

524
00:40:45.960 --> 00:40:51.239
Harden, I just kicked you.
Really, my thing is about James.

525
00:40:51.280 --> 00:40:54.519
I'm not James Harden. I think
about m B is U versus Cat and

526
00:40:54.599 --> 00:41:00.000
B versus Cat. I feel like
and Bid has honed in on his game

527
00:41:01.159 --> 00:41:05.320
better than Cat. Cat feels kind
of feel like he all over the place.

528
00:41:06.559 --> 00:41:08.400
I feel like Kat want to shoot
the three. He want to,

529
00:41:08.599 --> 00:41:12.000
but you know what it is with
me, with me and Kat, you

530
00:41:12.159 --> 00:41:15.920
seven foot, but I feel like
you're still scared. The post up a

531
00:41:15.960 --> 00:41:21.480
little soft now and b ain't as
soft. But I just felt he a

532
00:41:21.519 --> 00:41:24.320
little soft, like he want to
play like Joker, but his skill won't

533
00:41:24.400 --> 00:41:29.360
let him. I just feel like
That's why I just feel like about Towns

534
00:41:29.519 --> 00:41:31.679
and I great. I feel like
he like when he said stuff like I'm

535
00:41:31.719 --> 00:41:36.000
the greatest shooting center ever and because
he won the three point contest, like

536
00:41:36.079 --> 00:41:38.960
all right, relax, So it's
just one of the things that like I

537
00:41:39.079 --> 00:41:44.239
just don't feel like they measure up. He's one of the greatest. He's

538
00:41:44.280 --> 00:41:47.760
the greatest shooting center ever. He
won the three point contest. I said,

539
00:41:47.800 --> 00:41:55.320
center forward, look, look you
and stuff and don't don't don't do

540
00:41:55.360 --> 00:42:00.960
that because Stephan change your position.
I did. But most because every time

541
00:42:01.000 --> 00:42:04.880
you say, every time you say
that to somebody that's seven foot that played

542
00:42:04.880 --> 00:42:07.280
powerful, you like he's a center. Anthony Davis a power, says Anthony

543
00:42:07.360 --> 00:42:09.840
Davis is a power for But you'd
be like he's a center, he says.

544
00:42:12.039 --> 00:42:14.960
You do. You've been you've been
coining, you've been prophesigning, and

545
00:42:15.000 --> 00:42:16.840
step has been a shooting guard since
he's been in the game. I mean,

546
00:42:16.840 --> 00:42:20.599
as you're asking, anybody will tell
you they're wrong. The point guard

547
00:42:20.880 --> 00:42:25.480
that happens to Michael Jordan said that
anyways. Well then, so back to

548
00:42:25.519 --> 00:42:29.159
the trader, all right, back
to the trailer, back to the trade.

549
00:42:29.320 --> 00:42:30.639
We should have talked about that,
but we did. But back to

550
00:42:30.639 --> 00:42:34.840
the trade. My thing is,
do you feel like keys Let me ask

551
00:42:34.880 --> 00:42:39.599
you this question. Dre feels like
hardness has the fourteens he's been on,

552
00:42:40.280 --> 00:42:45.199
he's had every opportunity to win a
championship. I said, he had one.

553
00:42:46.480 --> 00:42:51.599
He said four. What do you
think he has? Who has that

554
00:42:51.920 --> 00:42:55.000
many opportunities? James harden Well,
the fourteens has been on. I said

555
00:42:55.039 --> 00:43:00.280
he has one champion, he had
one opportunity winning championship? Do you feel

556
00:43:00.280 --> 00:43:01.880
like he had four? Or do
you what is your And I want to

557
00:43:01.920 --> 00:43:06.400
answer that to you said for it, but but you didn't give the whole

558
00:43:06.400 --> 00:43:09.719
speech. But break it down.
He went to the finals with with Okay,

559
00:43:09.880 --> 00:43:13.760
I'll give him two and a half. Two and a half, what's

560
00:43:13.800 --> 00:43:16.760
the half that season with Okay,
see when they lost to Lebron and in

561
00:43:16.760 --> 00:43:20.719
the finals. Okay, so that's
the that's the that's the half, the

562
00:43:20.800 --> 00:43:27.000
half. What's the two? Brooklyn? Brooklyn? Everybody was calling them the

563
00:43:27.079 --> 00:43:31.159
championship, the champion, played the
game and Philly because they had the role

564
00:43:31.199 --> 00:43:37.800
players that he needed. He just
he just refused, Okay, I'll give

565
00:43:37.800 --> 00:43:40.000
you that. I'll give you three. I won't say that Houston is a

566
00:43:40.079 --> 00:43:43.719
championship team. But he had a
roster. Don't act like he had.

567
00:43:43.840 --> 00:43:47.000
Lebron, don't act like he had
and Tim Thomas. I didn't say they

568
00:43:47.000 --> 00:43:52.519
were bumps like Keason said about Cleveland. I'm saying that his that was prime

569
00:43:52.719 --> 00:43:55.400
James Harden. James Harden was coming
into his own. He was really killing

570
00:43:55.440 --> 00:44:00.880
the league. That step back was
crazy and we they might know how to

571
00:44:00.880 --> 00:44:05.920
defend, they don't know how to
defend it. So I'm saying that I

572
00:44:05.960 --> 00:44:12.320
think he I think he had the
one opportunity winning championship. Now I will

573
00:44:12.400 --> 00:44:15.719
agree with you. And when you
talk about Brooklyn, you're right. They

574
00:44:15.719 --> 00:44:17.599
were the big three. They had, they were the favorites. But like

575
00:44:17.639 --> 00:44:21.000
I said before, it was a
lot of chaos in that lot. There

576
00:44:21.039 --> 00:44:23.519
was a lot of chaos in that
on that organization all together. Now,

577
00:44:23.639 --> 00:44:28.280
whether regardless of how it went down, it still went down how it went

578
00:44:28.400 --> 00:44:36.559
down. My thing is with the
James Harden thing real quick because the air

579
00:44:36.679 --> 00:44:42.159
because so Philip Philadelphia has MAXI and
MBI. I'm gonna say something. I

580
00:44:42.400 --> 00:44:45.360
don't know if you're gonna agree with
this or that Maxie is not as good

581
00:44:45.400 --> 00:44:49.400
as the everybody think he is.
Is that what you think? I think

582
00:44:49.400 --> 00:44:52.039
that. I think that for sure
finished. Let me finish. I think

583
00:44:52.079 --> 00:44:54.880
that if you if you put James
Hart out there, if you put in

584
00:44:55.000 --> 00:44:59.679
bad out there, he can hide, he can hide, he can drop

585
00:44:59.719 --> 00:45:04.360
twenty without you really paying attention to
him. Is he part of it?

586
00:45:04.400 --> 00:45:07.159
Was he part of that three that
you had to Yeah, but he's the

587
00:45:07.639 --> 00:45:10.159
he's the third option, so it's
cool for him to sneak a quick twenty

588
00:45:10.199 --> 00:45:14.400
eight, twenty five, sixteen on
you be like, damn, where are

589
00:45:14.400 --> 00:45:17.360
they coming from? And he getting
he getting buckets at key times, but

590
00:45:17.400 --> 00:45:22.719
your main focus is James Harden and
Embid, so that now that James Harden

591
00:45:22.800 --> 00:45:28.559
is gone, it's really on MAXI. Well, I don't think he's as

592
00:45:28.760 --> 00:45:31.239
good. I don't think he's a
superstar. I'll say that, I don't

593
00:45:31.239 --> 00:45:34.719
think he's a superstar. I don't
think he brings the same attention that James

594
00:45:34.760 --> 00:45:37.760
Harden breaks. Well, I don't
think anyone is comparing that. But I

595
00:45:37.840 --> 00:45:42.199
also think that he is one of
the better young talents and learn the game.

596
00:45:42.280 --> 00:45:45.280
But here's the thing, we'll see
it in a minute anyway, because

597
00:45:45.360 --> 00:45:51.480
Ebad's out of there Philly pretty much
when they traded hard and they embraced that

598
00:45:51.559 --> 00:45:54.679
they're rebuilding. I don't think they're
rebuilding. Oh when EMBD is out of

599
00:45:54.719 --> 00:45:59.599
there? Oh yeah, when Lee, But I'm saying I don't think o,

600
00:45:59.840 --> 00:46:01.960
no, oh, I agree with
you. So I think I said

601
00:46:02.000 --> 00:46:06.519
this on Twitter or I said this
in the group chat. Once James Harden

602
00:46:06.559 --> 00:46:08.440
got traded, this solidified and he
was gone. He's out of there.

603
00:46:08.440 --> 00:46:13.320
He's there, and for your sake
and be if you ever listen to this

604
00:46:13.440 --> 00:46:17.800
podcast, John out, don't go
to the Knicks. I want him to

605
00:46:17.840 --> 00:46:21.400
go to Knicks. He can go
to a team and win the title.

606
00:46:21.480 --> 00:46:24.159
He can go to a team.
Uh No, I think and B don't.

607
00:46:24.760 --> 00:46:27.840
He's at a point in his career
now where he's gonna want to win

608
00:46:27.840 --> 00:46:30.920
the title. He's gonna go to
a stacked team too, guarantee. How

609
00:46:30.920 --> 00:46:32.920
long do you think it's for he
requested the trade, I would say all

610
00:46:32.920 --> 00:46:35.880
Star break. I don't think he's
gonna make it to the All Star Break.

611
00:46:35.920 --> 00:46:37.199
I think he's gonna wait his girl
career. I mean he's gonna wait

612
00:46:37.199 --> 00:46:42.000
his contract though. Did he sign
already. Is he in the middle of

613
00:46:42.079 --> 00:46:44.719
his big contractor I think a big
one. I think he is. I

614
00:46:44.760 --> 00:46:46.360
don't think he'll request the trade.
I think he'll wait his contract out.

615
00:46:46.960 --> 00:46:52.039
I don't know, man, I
don't know. Because you know you're gonna

616
00:46:52.039 --> 00:46:55.000
play for Team USA next year.
They're gonna get the talking and once you

617
00:46:55.039 --> 00:46:58.000
come over here, man, once
you come over there. Man. You

618
00:46:58.039 --> 00:47:00.039
know what I'm saying, because right
now, as fart as his cab,

619
00:47:00.119 --> 00:47:05.599
everybody's getting teams together to try to
beat Denver. I don't think the only

620
00:47:05.639 --> 00:47:10.079
undefeated team left in the n b
A WINSOA. The only team that's under

621
00:47:10.559 --> 00:47:14.119
is Boston, and Boston the only
one left. You're right, they did

622
00:47:14.280 --> 00:47:19.400
lose one. You are correct.
They lost the who Minnesota, but they

623
00:47:19.440 --> 00:47:27.679
destroyed everybody else. Yeah, but
they lose to Minnesota shooting. Didn't say

624
00:47:27.719 --> 00:47:31.880
that Anthony. Anthony Edwards ain't no
joke. He was a problem for them

625
00:47:31.960 --> 00:47:35.840
here, a real problem for the
man. But that's how it is.

626
00:47:35.880 --> 00:47:38.840
So everybody every team about that kryptonite, like the Bugs losing to Toronto.

627
00:47:40.199 --> 00:47:45.719
Yeah, Toronto, they got number
think we're gonna talk. We're gonna talk

628
00:47:45.760 --> 00:47:52.599
about that and Bucks talk. Uh. The next thing I don't want to

629
00:47:52.679 --> 00:47:57.719
talk about is the end season tournament
started this past week, started to no

630
00:47:57.840 --> 00:48:01.880
Friday, I'm sorry Friday dij games. First of all, yes, how

631
00:48:01.880 --> 00:48:07.079
did you feel watching the games?
I was distracted by the hideous floors,

632
00:48:07.199 --> 00:48:10.239
and we're gonna get into it.
I was distracted by the hideous forts,

633
00:48:10.800 --> 00:48:14.920
the floors. I like the floors. I like the city Jerseys. I

634
00:48:15.000 --> 00:48:16.239
was like, oh, I'm lit. I'm like, this is lit.

635
00:48:16.320 --> 00:48:21.760
I was distracted, but I was
more. It was funny to me when

636
00:48:21.800 --> 00:48:23.400
they were interviewing players and they all
were like, well, we don't really

637
00:48:23.480 --> 00:48:31.320
know what's going on. But Dane
who said Dane said it, Dude from

638
00:48:31.360 --> 00:48:35.239
Indiana said it. They were like, well, we don't really know what's

639
00:48:35.280 --> 00:48:37.960
going on. We just know we're
here and we're playing for some type of

640
00:48:37.000 --> 00:48:42.199
cup. I don't know if they
were being facetious or being smart behind,

641
00:48:42.440 --> 00:48:46.960
but yeah, I mean I liked
the idea because it makes for competitive basketball

642
00:48:47.039 --> 00:48:51.920
year round. It does. I
didn't at first. I didn't like look

643
00:48:51.960 --> 00:48:57.000
at it like that. But I
was like, I was like, this

644
00:48:57.079 --> 00:49:00.000
is interesting. I don't know why
it was interesting. I don't know why

645
00:49:00.199 --> 00:49:05.280
we uh was so against it that
first? I know, why could we

646
00:49:05.280 --> 00:49:07.960
didn't? We didn't understand it.
I still don't understand it. Well.

647
00:49:07.039 --> 00:49:13.719
Richard Jefferson played that. He did
a joke and we did we did the

648
00:49:13.719 --> 00:49:15.840
breakdown, and I don't know,
it's like right now, it's just it

649
00:49:16.039 --> 00:49:20.519
just it had it had a different
feel on Friday had a different feel.

650
00:49:22.320 --> 00:49:29.880
The games we played on Tuesday and
Fridays with that team's introduced new floors and

651
00:49:29.920 --> 00:49:35.880
they also entered. They were playing
in their city, their city jerseys,

652
00:49:36.840 --> 00:49:43.039
and we're waiting for a producer.
But I think I think the thing about

653
00:49:43.079 --> 00:49:45.519
it is that it was just a
different feeling. At first, I didn't

654
00:49:45.519 --> 00:49:49.400
get there. I was like,
this is gonna be stupid, but people

655
00:49:49.440 --> 00:49:54.639
are are eager to play. What's
his name, Halibert. Hallibert said the

656
00:49:54.679 --> 00:50:00.880
winner of the end season tournam should
get automatic playoff bed. I was like,

657
00:50:00.440 --> 00:50:04.239
I'm messing with that. Do you
think that sounds right? I think

658
00:50:04.239 --> 00:50:08.360
they did something right because these you're
talking to millionaires right now, and so

659
00:50:08.599 --> 00:50:13.679
give them another hundred an extra five
hundred thous I'm like, that's cool.

660
00:50:15.119 --> 00:50:17.480
That just show me y'all got the
NBA has money the blow. That's all

661
00:50:17.519 --> 00:50:22.039
that is showing me the NBA has
money to blow. We're gonna give all

662
00:50:22.119 --> 00:50:25.440
y'all extra five hundred thous on such
and such a second and a trick and

663
00:50:25.519 --> 00:50:29.360
a free trip to Vegas because we're
trying to see when we get a new

664
00:50:29.400 --> 00:50:32.280
team there, how it's gonna look
Lebron shack own it. So I just

665
00:50:32.320 --> 00:50:40.880
feel like that's what that's about.
We're still so an't we ready for you?

666
00:50:40.960 --> 00:50:46.199
Brian? I don't think y'all is
gonna do anything. Well. But

667
00:50:46.679 --> 00:50:54.000
the one thing about the tournament that
again I watched the Bucks game and I

668
00:50:54.039 --> 00:50:59.920
can't believe we only beat the Knicks
by five, but the players were really

669
00:51:00.079 --> 00:51:02.840
into it. Like but again,
I'm not gonna just say that for the

670
00:51:02.880 --> 00:51:07.599
tournament because these records do matter.
Okay, So we finally got it up.

671
00:51:07.840 --> 00:51:14.280
So man, we got these uh, we got these floors and I

672
00:51:14.280 --> 00:51:19.039
got this this picture for two reasons. First, I want you to tell

673
00:51:19.079 --> 00:51:22.119
me what was what you think was
the best looking floor. Let's start there.

674
00:51:22.239 --> 00:51:25.519
And then I'm gonna get into who
are your pick? Who are your

675
00:51:25.559 --> 00:51:32.039
picks for each group? So so
I'll let you gentlemen, Well I'll start

676
00:51:32.079 --> 00:51:37.400
it off. I think my first
question is who pays for these floors?

677
00:51:37.559 --> 00:51:43.079
The tickets to high tickets business?
He was they didn't put these floors in

678
00:51:43.159 --> 00:51:45.280
for what for? What? What
you mean for the season? Tournament?

679
00:51:45.280 --> 00:51:51.239
That's how you know it's season is
what they called it? Priday God,

680
00:51:51.920 --> 00:51:53.480
but yeah, this is the end
season tournament floors. So each time we

681
00:51:53.559 --> 00:51:57.079
have an well, first of all, this is a lot of work.

682
00:51:58.440 --> 00:52:00.360
This is a lot of work for
every Tuesday, every Friday. If I

683
00:52:00.480 --> 00:52:07.079
worked as a form, I'll be
mad. Well and keep in minds well,

684
00:52:07.360 --> 00:52:09.960
hey, it's a it's a world
of not want to work people,

685
00:52:10.000 --> 00:52:15.320
so right, and keep in mind, I have been I think Casey may

686
00:52:15.360 --> 00:52:19.920
have did it one year with me. I have been at the fier for

687
00:52:20.039 --> 00:52:24.599
him for a Marquette game that ended
at four and a Bucks game that started

688
00:52:24.599 --> 00:52:29.360
at six. Did you watch them
take the floor up and put it You

689
00:52:29.400 --> 00:52:32.119
have to leave. You have to
leave because you got to get rescanned with

690
00:52:32.159 --> 00:52:37.480
your new ticket. Literally, they
have to put up all the Marquette stuff,

691
00:52:37.800 --> 00:52:40.960
take down all the NBA stuff,
put in the whole new floor,

692
00:52:42.280 --> 00:52:45.679
replace the benches. It is not
something that you can just do quickly.

693
00:52:45.719 --> 00:52:50.960
In fact, they put they pushed
that game back an hour or two because

694
00:52:50.960 --> 00:52:53.920
they didn't have enough time because the
Marquette game went into overtime. They have

695
00:52:54.039 --> 00:52:59.320
enough time to even get ready for
the game. Be good this year anyways,

696
00:52:59.400 --> 00:53:02.559
So I'm ready at when you are
architect, the favorite, my favorite?

697
00:53:02.639 --> 00:53:07.719
What's your favorite floor? The Bucks
because it actually looks like a basketball

698
00:53:07.760 --> 00:53:10.559
floor. You can still see the
horrorwood. Really, yes, you can

699
00:53:10.559 --> 00:53:19.159
still see the hardwood. And I
also I don't mind the I don't mind

700
00:53:19.199 --> 00:53:22.920
the sea, the one in the
corner there in the Seaston, Boston,

701
00:53:23.280 --> 00:53:28.119
and Boston's okay too because you can
see some hardwood. All them other ones

702
00:53:28.199 --> 00:53:32.760
look like really bad cartoons. Really, yes, I'm dig in the different

703
00:53:32.800 --> 00:53:43.199
floors. Chicago, Miami, Portland, UH, Indiana was cool, the

704
00:53:43.239 --> 00:53:49.559
Bucks. I think the Bucks had
one of the best floors. Atlanta,

705
00:53:51.719 --> 00:53:55.599
So I was digging the different floors. I think that was Memphis. Memphis

706
00:53:55.639 --> 00:54:00.000
had that like that dark blue floor. So like I'm digging the different floor

707
00:54:00.360 --> 00:54:07.559
that was the thing to me.
Are okay really, Boston is probably the

708
00:54:07.599 --> 00:54:09.480
best looking one to me. But
at the end of the day, it

709
00:54:09.559 --> 00:54:14.880
it's a lot of wasted money,
not a wasted money. And floors is

710
00:54:14.920 --> 00:54:16.559
not cheap, I know what I'm
saying. Waste the money, waste money.

711
00:54:17.159 --> 00:54:24.400
Removable and removable floors that come back
together really ain't cheap. In the

712
00:54:24.480 --> 00:54:31.760
labor it costs to put them back
and forth ain't cheap. So I figured

713
00:54:31.800 --> 00:54:35.559
you just play the games on the
floors that you already have watch right,

714
00:54:35.679 --> 00:54:38.480
just paint a little cup on the
floor and say in season tournament like making

715
00:54:38.519 --> 00:54:44.719
a part of the original floor.
Right. Come on, the NBA is

716
00:54:44.760 --> 00:54:46.400
trying to be different and creative here. I mean, I gotta give Adam

717
00:54:46.400 --> 00:54:52.320
Silver credit. Man. Adam Silver
has elevated and evolved the game of basketball.

718
00:54:52.400 --> 00:54:57.000
He has done some more stuff.
Let's get crazy here. The playing

719
00:54:57.119 --> 00:55:00.760
tournament. So who's in the league
right now? Nobody can as everybody hasn't

720
00:55:00.760 --> 00:55:06.239
played. The first game was on
Friday, and then the next one's are

721
00:55:06.280 --> 00:55:13.480
on Tuesday. Sol has to play
in tournament. The Kobe Bryant tribute.

722
00:55:14.639 --> 00:55:20.519
He's made the game even more global, the donating to HBCUs. Here's my

723
00:55:20.559 --> 00:55:25.599
thing about that. The n n
C and tournament the highest labor markets in

724
00:55:25.679 --> 00:55:31.119
the history of the sport. Do
not take away what Adam Silver has done

725
00:55:31.199 --> 00:55:37.519
for the game of basketball. Can
thank you something you like? You like

726
00:55:37.599 --> 00:55:42.960
chicken? It's okay, I prefer
baked, but it's okay. Thank you?

727
00:55:43.079 --> 00:55:45.000
Do you like? Do you like
chick? So if I really save

728
00:55:45.000 --> 00:55:51.599
you some chicken, would you eat
it? Because I seen what you with

729
00:55:51.639 --> 00:56:00.800
that book? Would you were to
take a from the point in the good.

730
00:56:00.800 --> 00:56:04.360
No, there's no point if it's
some picking save I'm gonna take the

731
00:56:04.440 --> 00:56:08.760
chicken, thank you, Walt Chicken
O God, nothing from that point.

732
00:56:08.840 --> 00:56:14.840
You know what, You're the wrong
person. I ask, ever, so

733
00:56:15.199 --> 00:56:17.719
you use a wrong person. I
didn't even think about it. You was

734
00:56:17.760 --> 00:56:22.239
the wrong person. To the point
I'm making, is this do I take

735
00:56:22.280 --> 00:56:24.920
away with Adam Silber did for the
league? No, but it's not hard

736
00:56:24.960 --> 00:56:31.519
to sell. Its very bro.
We were so critical of the playing tournament.

737
00:56:31.679 --> 00:56:37.119
Yeah, we were so critical of
of this this season turnament. What

738
00:56:37.119 --> 00:56:43.079
what did you just say two minutes
ago? I was like, it's still

739
00:56:43.159 --> 00:56:46.440
basketball. Don't get it twisted just
because you just because you're flowering the chicken

740
00:56:46.480 --> 00:56:52.320
different way, it's still chicken.
Chicken is It's not make real, not

741
00:56:52.639 --> 00:56:55.079
ride however you hip it. It's
still chicken. What I would say about

742
00:56:55.079 --> 00:56:59.119
this end season tournament, I would
have preferred it to happen in the off

743
00:56:59.159 --> 00:57:04.440
season. I don't like that.
I mean they playing offseason anyway? They

744
00:57:04.480 --> 00:57:08.679
played oh that unrelated basketball to Yeah, but no, which is it?

745
00:57:08.719 --> 00:57:12.760
So? Which is you like?
I just said, I like, uh,

746
00:57:13.280 --> 00:57:15.960
I didn't like Boston you going football? I like the Bucks. I

747
00:57:15.039 --> 00:57:21.639
like the Miami heat. Uh,
Memphis kind of stuck out. The red

748
00:57:21.639 --> 00:57:24.039
stuck. It was different if you
have a different floor. There's five of

749
00:57:24.079 --> 00:57:28.559
them that are red. What do
you mean it's different? One three four

750
00:57:29.159 --> 00:57:31.639
Bucks, Boston got the best floor
to period. I said Miami ball.

751
00:57:31.719 --> 00:57:37.559
I said in Miami the Bucks.
New Orleans is cool. New Orleans is

752
00:57:37.599 --> 00:57:45.960
cool. Okay, see what's smooth? Seventy six ers? Yeah, look

753
00:57:45.559 --> 00:57:51.199
Bland, So that's I mean,
I'm messing with them. Uh, Denver,

754
00:57:51.440 --> 00:57:54.639
Denver was smooth. Dinfers was smooth. That five to eight zero.

755
00:57:55.239 --> 00:57:59.559
If you don't that that was smooth. I was like, okay, cool.

756
00:58:00.079 --> 00:58:04.960
So those were what was interesting to
me. But now we have this

757
00:58:05.079 --> 00:58:07.719
thing up here. We have West
A, we have West B, we

758
00:58:07.800 --> 00:58:12.119
have West C, we have East
A, East B, and East C.

759
00:58:13.760 --> 00:58:15.920
Pick a winner. It's too soon. I can't pick a winner too

760
00:58:15.960 --> 00:58:19.159
soon. No, I just need
what do you mean to soon? Why

761
00:58:19.199 --> 00:58:21.519
you say it's too soon? This
is the nd season tournament were but we're

762
00:58:21.559 --> 00:58:24.199
only six games in the season.
The more tournament games to play. I

763
00:58:24.239 --> 00:58:30.559
know that a month I'm going with
I'm going with the nd season tournament winners.

764
00:58:30.559 --> 00:58:36.119
Denver Nuggets, Yes, No,
I'm saying each group. I said

765
00:58:36.119 --> 00:58:40.760
each group. So West A,
I'm going with barely see that if you

766
00:58:40.800 --> 00:58:46.440
pull on your phone, do you
know what you want? I'm not going

767
00:58:47.960 --> 00:58:51.880
I'm going with Denver to winner.
Who just wants to depict who we think?

768
00:58:52.440 --> 00:58:54.719
Yeah? Who are who you think? Because I'm looking, so check

769
00:58:54.800 --> 00:58:57.639
it out, I'll look, I'll
break it down there. I'll break it

770
00:58:57.679 --> 00:59:00.599
down like this. I got you
say the books. No, I'm not

771
00:59:00.639 --> 00:59:04.280
the winner, the whole thing.
I'm talking about each group. Group A.

772
00:59:04.920 --> 00:59:09.800
Group A is Los Angeles, Memphis, UH, Phoenix, Portland and

773
00:59:09.920 --> 00:59:15.960
Utah. Wait is it the land
you said? Group A is the Lakers

774
00:59:16.519 --> 00:59:23.119
group as is West A. It's
the Los Angeles Lakers, Memphis Grizzlies,

775
00:59:23.519 --> 00:59:30.559
Phoenix Sons, Portland Trail Blazers,
and the Utah Jazz Phoenix Lakers. I'm

776
00:59:30.559 --> 00:59:35.920
going, Uh, I'm going Lakers
in that group. I'm going Lakers,

777
00:59:36.320 --> 00:59:39.559
that group, the Lakers. I'm
going Lakers. In West B. We

778
00:59:39.639 --> 00:59:50.920
have Dallas, Denver, Houston clip
Clippers, and we have the New Orleans

779
00:59:50.960 --> 00:59:58.639
Pelicans Denver, I'm going Denver,
going Dallas, going Dallas. Really because

780
00:59:58.679 --> 01:00:02.199
Luca and and Kin we fit the
style of that playing tournament style play.

781
01:00:02.440 --> 01:00:07.840
Kyrie has only played maybe two games
a season, just so you know he's

782
01:00:07.840 --> 01:00:09.800
been he's been on the shelf a
little bit low key. Didn't beat them

783
01:00:10.320 --> 01:00:15.920
close. No, it wasn't that
close. It got close. They cut

784
01:00:15.920 --> 01:00:17.880
it to like hey, they cut
it to, but the game wasn't close.

785
01:00:22.320 --> 01:00:27.000
Anything for Luca bro anything for Lucauco
can win that. I think Luca

786
01:00:27.039 --> 01:00:30.079
game win it. No, it's
a little different than winning the championship.

787
01:00:30.159 --> 01:00:37.840
So West c is Golden State olda
composer. Uh go to state Minnesota,

788
01:00:37.000 --> 01:00:42.239
Francisco. Okay, see by San
Francisco. They don't go by San Francisco.

789
01:00:42.280 --> 01:00:46.559
They city Jersey, say San Francisco. Their city Jersey, San Francisco,

790
01:00:47.199 --> 01:00:53.119
Francis. I'm not calling them san
Francisco nothing. Okay. See who's

791
01:00:54.159 --> 01:01:00.920
Sacramento, Oh, Sacramento, And
who's the other team, san Antonio,

792
01:01:01.960 --> 01:01:07.400
Sacrado. I'm going San Antonio.
I'm going Sack. I'm going San Antonio

793
01:01:07.840 --> 01:01:13.400
in San Francisco, Sack, you
want Sacramento. Uh. On the East,

794
01:01:13.480 --> 01:01:17.920
we got Atlanta, Cleveland, Detroit, Indiana. In the seventy six

795
01:01:19.039 --> 01:01:29.039
ers, I'm gonna go Philly.
You got the Atlanta Hawks, Cleveland Cavaliers,

796
01:01:29.199 --> 01:01:32.760
Detroit, Indiana and the seventy six
ers. I'm going seventy six.

797
01:01:32.840 --> 01:01:37.280
I'm born in Atlanta. I'm going
in Atlanta to meat the Bucks one time.

798
01:01:37.360 --> 01:01:39.800
Relaxed. No, I'm not saying
because I like them. I'm just

799
01:01:39.800 --> 01:01:45.159
saying Atlanta is a sleeper team in
the East. They're a sleeper team.

800
01:01:45.480 --> 01:01:52.400
They are all around a good ball
club. I think that I don't think

801
01:01:52.440 --> 01:01:57.239
that that's what they are in game
six or seven and we have not made

802
01:01:57.239 --> 01:02:00.079
it the game twenty to twenty five. People have a little fresher legs at

803
01:02:00.079 --> 01:02:05.840
the moment. But once we get
to twenty and twenty five, you won't

804
01:02:05.840 --> 01:02:08.559
even hear Atlanta's name. You won't
hear Atlanta. You won't hear Cleveland because,

805
01:02:08.599 --> 01:02:14.239
oh boy, be going to Donovan
Mitchell there. So y'all going,

806
01:02:14.320 --> 01:02:17.880
y'all? Who y'all going for East
A for Group A? And I'm going

807
01:02:17.920 --> 01:02:21.880
Philly. Who you going with?
Dre? I said Atlanta, You're going

808
01:02:21.880 --> 01:02:28.119
to Atlanta and East B Group we
have Charlotte, Miami, Milwaukee, New

809
01:02:28.239 --> 01:02:34.280
York and the Wizards, the Wizards
Milwaukee, Milwaukee. I'm going to Milwaukee

810
01:02:34.280 --> 01:02:45.199
too, say New York and show
losing effort. Though bruhuh Randall is a

811
01:02:45.280 --> 01:02:50.159
terrible teammates. I've been saying that. But anyways, uh East C last

812
01:02:50.159 --> 01:02:53.480
group. We got Boston, Brooklyn, Chicago, Orlando, Magic in the

813
01:02:53.559 --> 01:03:00.239
Toronto Raptors, Boston for the sweep
Boston, Really, are you just saying

814
01:03:00.280 --> 01:03:05.079
stuff? I think so you're just
saying stuff, But I don't think Boston

815
01:03:05.119 --> 01:03:08.239
is gonna really be too worried about
that. Let me tell you that hard.

816
01:03:08.559 --> 01:03:12.239
Let me take you because Boston really
won't revenge. Let me tell you

817
01:03:12.320 --> 01:03:15.360
something about Boston. They might get
it. We'll talk about that later though,

818
01:03:15.400 --> 01:03:21.599
they might get it. Another thing
we do on a yearly basis is

819
01:03:21.679 --> 01:03:29.920
talk about the NBA City jerseys.
The the NBA City jerseys we dropped that.

820
01:03:32.280 --> 01:03:36.320
They dropped these this year. I
don't know if you guys had a

821
01:03:36.360 --> 01:03:38.519
chance to take a look at him, but I was pleasantly surprised, and

822
01:03:39.119 --> 01:03:44.840
I was presently pleasantly. Hey,
I was, I'll say surprised because usually

823
01:03:44.840 --> 01:03:50.199
I don't like city jerseys, but
they they were pretty good this year.

824
01:03:51.239 --> 01:03:54.639
So we're gonna get into that.
To me, guy, what you guys

825
01:03:54.679 --> 01:04:02.599
think, I don't really where jerseys
wait, we all don't. We're adults.

826
01:04:02.760 --> 01:04:12.159
But look at these jerseys and tell
me what do you think was the

827
01:04:12.199 --> 01:04:21.800
best or the worst? The best
is Boston, the worst is the Kings.

828
01:04:23.960 --> 01:04:26.960
But I also like New York's because
it looks like you said the worst

829
01:04:27.000 --> 01:04:30.559
was the Kings. I also like
New York. I'm sorry, I like

830
01:04:30.840 --> 01:04:34.679
the Nets is the worst? Oh
my god, what a hideous jersey you

831
01:04:34.719 --> 01:04:40.320
don't like. I do not like
the Nets. Nine color jersey I do

832
01:04:40.480 --> 01:04:45.719
not. Indies is sharp, but
you know I liked It's very different.

833
01:04:45.159 --> 01:04:50.440
New York's looks like a normal basketball
jersey. I would you said you like

834
01:04:50.480 --> 01:04:54.719
Brooklyn's. No, I don't like
Yeah, I don't like the Nets.

835
01:04:54.800 --> 01:04:57.599
No, I don't like the Nets, and I don't like the Kings.

836
01:04:58.599 --> 01:05:05.400
I'm going with I'm I'm the Washington
Wizards as my top choice. I like

837
01:05:05.440 --> 01:05:12.119
the Washington Wizards and I like the
Minnesota Timberwolves. Those are the two I

838
01:05:12.199 --> 01:05:16.920
like war jerseys. I would buy
those two from the City Edstrict I liked

839
01:05:17.599 --> 01:05:24.760
too. Okay, so usually all
these jerseys have stories behind them. Yeah,

840
01:05:25.039 --> 01:05:30.280
there's a picture of them. I
liked the Milwaukee Bucks jersey and you

841
01:05:30.360 --> 01:05:34.159
really yeah you really can't see it
in the picture, but the story behind

842
01:05:34.159 --> 01:05:42.360
it. I did like the story
behind it is that that the excitement in

843
01:05:42.440 --> 01:05:45.719
the that was showcased when we did
win the NBA Championship in the Deer District.

844
01:05:46.000 --> 01:05:50.280
So what they did was if you
take a like a photo from way

845
01:05:50.360 --> 01:05:55.800
way back, and you just see
dots, and that's what the blue suposed

846
01:05:55.800 --> 01:05:58.840
to represent, is supposed to represent
the Deer District. So I thought that

847
01:05:58.880 --> 01:06:00.719
was a really good story. I
was like, oh, okay. Now

848
01:06:00.719 --> 01:06:03.519
I'm a little biased, obviously,
but I thought we had probably, if

849
01:06:03.559 --> 01:06:08.119
not the best Jersey top five.
Now I do will say I like Indiana's

850
01:06:08.119 --> 01:06:16.000
because they came real different. I
don't hate I don't hate Brooklyn's. I

851
01:06:16.039 --> 01:06:18.840
thought, I don't hate it,
but you know, it's all I ain't

852
01:06:18.840 --> 01:06:24.679
gonna lie. I like Toronto's.
Will go nice with some Tims, it

853
01:06:24.880 --> 01:06:29.159
go it's some jays, they go
nice with it. Yeah, And then

854
01:06:29.199 --> 01:06:32.880
there's something but the drop in the
December, the one I don't understand that

855
01:06:33.079 --> 01:06:36.960
looks I ain't gonna say, I
don't understand, but it's the basicest one

856
01:06:38.039 --> 01:06:41.559
to me. It's probably is that
Denver up there in the top right corner.

857
01:06:41.719 --> 01:06:45.960
Yeah, the numbers on itfty to
eighty. You know whatfty two eighty

858
01:06:45.000 --> 01:06:49.800
stand for? Fifty two eighty is, Oh my god, that's hold on

859
01:06:50.000 --> 01:06:53.679
that because I just because I was
I didn't get it at first. I

860
01:06:53.760 --> 01:06:56.440
was like, what is the point
of this? Fifty two eighty the fifty

861
01:06:57.599 --> 01:07:06.400
No fifty so fifty two eighties.
So fifty two eighties stands for uh the

862
01:07:08.239 --> 01:07:13.480
what is it? The I'm gonna
get this word wrong. Antitude five and

863
01:07:13.559 --> 01:07:17.679
eighty feet the altitude, the altitude, that's what it stands for. I

864
01:07:17.800 --> 01:07:20.679
was like, oh, okay,
when you put it in words like that,

865
01:07:23.360 --> 01:07:25.880
I'm really that's what they put on
their jersey. They put on the

866
01:07:26.320 --> 01:07:29.880
altitude is probably put no weed on
there. Probably they put it on there.

867
01:07:30.360 --> 01:07:30.960
No, no, no, no, why would they put them it's

868
01:07:31.000 --> 01:07:35.679
legal? Why would they put that
on there. This is a second week

869
01:07:35.719 --> 01:07:38.559
in a row. You just be
coming out, You just to be saying

870
01:07:38.719 --> 01:07:42.480
stuff, it's legal there. This
is the first last week it was And

871
01:07:42.599 --> 01:07:47.920
I was up there. Now is
this literally saying stuff? No second waking

872
01:07:47.960 --> 01:07:53.000
around? It's legal there? And
the NBA doesn't test for marijuana anymore,

873
01:07:56.880 --> 01:08:00.599
and then yeah, doesn't test for
weed anymore. How would that be in

874
01:08:00.599 --> 01:08:04.480
a Jersey Why wouldn't it They have
this for kidstruct selves? Right? Not

875
01:08:04.639 --> 01:08:10.559
everything in the NBA does for kids, Not everything a sponsor Hennessy. Right,

876
01:08:13.239 --> 01:08:20.479
it's fact right now, Jersey.
I didn't like Golden State, do

877
01:08:20.680 --> 01:08:27.359
better, Los Angeles, Los Ange's
Lakers do better? And then Memphis?

878
01:08:27.840 --> 01:08:33.039
All right, do better? Did
they have a gun on theirs? Memphis,

879
01:08:33.159 --> 01:08:36.520
which is the m e m the
only team to not win a game?

880
01:08:38.840 --> 01:08:43.359
They need morant. I ain't gonna
hold you. It's between it's right

881
01:08:43.399 --> 01:08:48.479
next to the Lakers. Yeah,
I think so Lakers is the one next

882
01:08:48.560 --> 01:08:55.600
to the Memphis. It's trash.
I know. That's why I put it

883
01:08:55.640 --> 01:08:59.920
in the group chat. So CJ. Mccullu has been diagnosed with a color

884
01:09:00.000 --> 01:09:02.520
blax. Long that will, that
will that will sit you down for the

885
01:09:02.560 --> 01:09:09.720
rest of the year and possibly for
the racial career. Uh, that's all.

886
01:09:09.720 --> 01:09:11.880
I was gonna bring it up next
week. But thank you for putting

887
01:09:11.880 --> 01:09:15.359
it out down. I know,
but that's what I'm saying. I said

888
01:09:15.399 --> 01:09:19.920
that an injury. Fort's don't worry
about you said something with his long class.

889
01:09:19.920 --> 01:09:21.600
I know, I said, I
dig it up next week. I

890
01:09:21.600 --> 01:09:25.640
said I bring it up next week. Well it's different than us make that

891
01:09:25.760 --> 01:09:27.960
was something we should have brought up, by the way, I send my

892
01:09:28.039 --> 01:09:30.359
prayers to that brother man, And
we said, I know, I'm just

893
01:09:30.399 --> 01:09:33.199
sending them again, man, because
we didn't know what it was we did,

894
01:09:33.319 --> 01:09:35.640
I didn't know what it was.
That's bring it up next week.

895
01:09:36.680 --> 01:09:51.720
But ladies and gentlemen, anyway,
I know it's five o'clock before we get

896
01:09:51.800 --> 01:09:57.720
up out of here to what we
really came here for. What Bucks talk.

897
01:10:00.239 --> 01:10:03.600
It's still early, but I'm just
gonna ask a general question. How

898
01:10:03.720 --> 01:10:08.680
you feeling about the Bucks right now
and their defensive waes. I mean,

899
01:10:08.800 --> 01:10:10.960
is this gonna hold them back?
Or is it too early to tell?

900
01:10:12.359 --> 01:10:16.199
So I said it yesterday. Let
me find the comments so I can read

901
01:10:16.279 --> 01:10:26.159
it verbatim because I want to get
it's it's never too early to start wondering

902
01:10:26.720 --> 01:10:30.840
about your team and if they're ready, look at the Green Bay Packers are

903
01:10:30.840 --> 01:10:34.319
at the beginning of the season.
So this is what I say. In

904
01:10:34.399 --> 01:10:42.479
another sports circle, someone said,
and I quote, Milwaukee Bucks fans are

905
01:10:42.600 --> 01:10:46.920
calling for Adrian Griffin to be fired
four games into the twenty three to twenty

906
01:10:46.960 --> 01:10:55.520
four season. I responded simply by
saying, I haven't heard this, but

907
01:10:55.760 --> 01:10:59.039
I didn't think he was the one
from the beginning. You said that,

908
01:10:59.359 --> 01:11:04.119
I did. I say, However, what we're seeing and missing is not

909
01:11:04.479 --> 01:11:11.359
having the best two way guard in
the league on our team. Dame is

910
01:11:11.479 --> 01:11:17.520
awesome, but we will miss Holiday's
defense. So what we're seeing right now,

911
01:11:18.800 --> 01:11:27.159
to me is two parts a coach
that's trying to figure it out and

912
01:11:27.279 --> 01:11:31.319
a team that's trying to figure it
out. Because Giannis and Dame, I

913
01:11:31.319 --> 01:11:34.039
would like to see more pick and
roll I don't see a whole lot of

914
01:11:34.079 --> 01:11:40.000
pick and roll action there. I
would like to see more comfortableness of them

915
01:11:40.039 --> 01:11:45.319
playing together. I think they're playing
too passive with each other right Like you'll

916
01:11:45.319 --> 01:11:49.159
see yannas the ball and he'll kick
it out and vice versa. But we

917
01:11:49.439 --> 01:11:56.800
will never replace the defensive of a
jew Holiday because there's nobody on the Bucks

918
01:11:56.920 --> 01:12:00.239
outside of Gianni's. Giannis is the
exception that can play defense at a level

919
01:12:00.319 --> 01:12:03.520
of Holiday. So the Bucks need
to figure out how to be a better

920
01:12:03.560 --> 01:12:09.760
defensive. So do you think this
is do you think this is a situation

921
01:12:09.920 --> 01:12:14.479
where this is we're looking for an
identity still, or do you think this

922
01:12:14.600 --> 01:12:18.000
is a situation where it'll it'll eventually
get better. I think it's new.

923
01:12:18.199 --> 01:12:21.439
I'm gonna say that. Do you
think I think it's new? Yes,

924
01:12:21.640 --> 01:12:26.439
I think it gets better. But
we're still going to miss that defensive that's

925
01:12:26.600 --> 01:12:31.800
obvious. Can we move on from
that? But it's true, we can't

926
01:12:31.880 --> 01:12:39.279
move on. Get mad of it? Why do you want us to move

927
01:12:39.279 --> 01:12:40.880
on? Why do you want us
to move on from it? Because it's

928
01:12:40.920 --> 01:12:45.199
what's happening now, you know,
because he came and me, like we

929
01:12:45.279 --> 01:12:47.560
were talking about Lebron. Okay,
you could respond that way if it was

930
01:12:47.640 --> 01:12:50.439
Lebron, but you can't respond that
way to the home team, which we're

931
01:12:50.479 --> 01:12:53.920
all be I don't think he came
aggressive. He just said, hey,

932
01:12:55.239 --> 01:13:01.000
okay, go ahead, Yeah,
slip on your track. So we're gonna

933
01:13:01.039 --> 01:13:05.880
move on. All I was saying
was we have a new situation. Why

934
01:13:06.000 --> 01:13:12.159
keep harboring over what? We don't
have anymore time to move on and figure

935
01:13:12.199 --> 01:13:18.920
out what's next for us? Are
I'm not concerned. I'm not concerned.

936
01:13:20.560 --> 01:13:26.199
We want me tell you, why
go ahead? Because we're only in game

937
01:13:26.359 --> 01:13:33.119
six and some discombobulation is as a
part of the process. That's how you

938
01:13:33.239 --> 01:13:38.199
figure it out. So you said
it because the Wizards, I mean the

939
01:13:38.279 --> 01:13:44.720
Wizards, we know they I mean
the Warriors didn't all of a sudden start

940
01:13:44.800 --> 01:13:49.319
winning games. It took time.
It's a process, right the first season,

941
01:13:49.359 --> 01:13:54.039
they didn't win seventy two games that
year. It was next year.

942
01:13:54.760 --> 01:13:57.439
So it's a process. Even though
they won a championship the year before.

943
01:13:58.720 --> 01:14:01.439
So the Bucks are going to lose
games. It's some figuring out. There's

944
01:14:01.479 --> 01:14:06.760
some learning. I got a question, it's some experiments going on right now.

945
01:14:06.880 --> 01:14:12.560
It's a lot of experiment going on
in the Bucks organization or roster.

946
01:14:13.479 --> 01:14:21.920
So nobody solidified their spot outside of
Janni's Dame in Brook the middle Middleton,

947
01:14:23.159 --> 01:14:28.640
Middleton. So here's why I'm going
to say, I hear you what I

948
01:14:28.800 --> 01:14:32.079
call bull because the Boston Celtics are
in the same situation and they're five and

949
01:14:32.159 --> 01:14:39.359
oh and they're destroying teams. Who
have they beat? They're five and oh,

950
01:14:39.680 --> 01:14:43.119
they beat the it doesn't matter.
They put up one hundred and fifty

951
01:14:43.239 --> 01:14:48.399
five against the Pacers, one hundred
and fifty five. Who it doesn't matter.

952
01:14:48.479 --> 01:14:51.039
It's an NBA team. You put
up one hundred and fifty five points.

953
01:14:53.039 --> 01:14:57.760
They beat the Brooklyn nets by ten. Okay, so look at this.

954
01:14:58.279 --> 01:15:00.560
They beat up, They beat the
Wizard, they beat the Heat the

955
01:15:00.640 --> 01:15:06.880
first game of the season, they
beat New York Julius Randall. We all

956
01:15:08.079 --> 01:15:13.560
just got them talking about us,
and they got and they got an undersized

957
01:15:14.199 --> 01:15:17.199
point guard. But the Bucks lost
to Atlanta and the Raptors. So what's

958
01:15:17.239 --> 01:15:21.000
your point? Can I finish fish? Let me get it out. They

959
01:15:21.079 --> 01:15:29.920
beat a hobble Miami, they beat
a discombobulated Wizards. They put it an

960
01:15:30.119 --> 01:15:38.039
unknown indie team, and they beat
a discombobulated next team. They ain't playing

961
01:15:38.119 --> 01:15:42.399
nobody yet. Here's my question.
They got They got Anthony Edwards next,

962
01:15:43.439 --> 01:15:45.920
they got Joel Embiid after that.
So my question for you is this key

963
01:15:46.399 --> 01:15:50.560
is my question for you. When
they play somebody and beat somebody, I'll

964
01:15:50.600 --> 01:15:57.680
take it serious. With the Lakers. With the Lakers, just yes,

965
01:15:59.199 --> 01:16:00.560
king about you know what I'm saying
to you said, if they beat somebody,

966
01:16:00.640 --> 01:16:02.840
Are you talking about the Lakers?
No, I'm talking about like them

967
01:16:03.279 --> 01:16:09.000
all right. Bus beat Philly by
one. Milwaukee hold saying allkright, fine,

968
01:16:09.079 --> 01:16:12.279
here's the thing talking about Philly.
Okay, check this out real quick.

969
01:16:12.520 --> 01:16:14.800
Philly four and one right now,
we beat them. I know,

970
01:16:14.960 --> 01:16:17.960
I get it real quick. My
thing is this, if we don't,

971
01:16:18.079 --> 01:16:23.399
If we don't, here's the thing. I don't want to be ten and

972
01:16:23.520 --> 01:16:27.319
ten and then start talking about this. I don't want to be five and

973
01:16:27.399 --> 01:16:31.279
fifteen and start talking about it.
We're looking because here's the thing. We

974
01:16:31.439 --> 01:16:36.479
talked about this before when the trade
happened. We're expecting what championship or bust.

975
01:16:38.399 --> 01:16:40.920
That's why you go get Dame now
here. Here's what here's the thing

976
01:16:41.000 --> 01:16:44.159
we're missing. We have we have
two categories, two different point guards.

977
01:16:44.399 --> 01:16:47.880
We have an all around point guard
who in the playoff time tends to disappear.

978
01:16:47.960 --> 01:16:54.640
He tends to shrink the holiday.
He tends to shrink. Yes he

979
01:16:54.720 --> 01:17:00.720
does, he does quick. Here's
the thing he tends the shrink. He

980
01:17:00.840 --> 01:17:05.199
does. Dame under two minutes is
Dame time. We're hitting the watch and

981
01:17:05.239 --> 01:17:12.600
they clutch butter. We've seen it. We've seen it so twice this season

982
01:17:12.640 --> 01:17:16.159
already. So my thing is this, what is what's gonna get us this

983
01:17:16.359 --> 01:17:21.680
championship? A defense? And we
got a hobble Middleton right now or b

984
01:17:23.399 --> 01:17:26.239
here's the thing. I'm gonna get
there in a second because Dre said something.

985
01:17:26.279 --> 01:17:28.039
I was like, nah, but
then I was like, yeah,

986
01:17:29.279 --> 01:17:32.920
I don't know if we won this
all around, because the thing that got

987
01:17:33.000 --> 01:17:38.439
us to the championship that then there's
been always our thing is defense. It's

988
01:17:38.560 --> 01:17:42.800
that's been our our identity. Hey, Drew's gonna lock up the point guard

989
01:17:42.880 --> 01:17:45.319
situation, and all we have to
worry about is everything else. Now.

990
01:17:45.439 --> 01:17:49.039
The thing about it is, I
think injuries called up to us and we

991
01:17:49.239 --> 01:17:54.600
haven't been. We been. We
like our bill was rocked last year with

992
01:17:54.920 --> 01:17:57.840
the Miami Heat. It was rocked, but Miami went all the way to

993
01:17:57.880 --> 01:18:00.840
the NBA Finals. They was rocking
everybody's bill. So that's the one time

994
01:18:00.920 --> 01:18:03.119
thing we was like, hey man, Budd gotta get out of here.

995
01:18:04.199 --> 01:18:09.880
Like you said, I don't know
if I think I said this too.

996
01:18:09.920 --> 01:18:13.399
I don't know if Bud should have
been fired right away because look what we

997
01:18:13.520 --> 01:18:17.119
got. Look where we're at.
We lost two games. We called we

998
01:18:17.279 --> 01:18:20.439
was at the we was at Atlanta
game. We was at the Atlanta game.

999
01:18:20.880 --> 01:18:25.760
It was a bad shooting game.
It was a bad shooting game.

1000
01:18:26.560 --> 01:18:30.520
But also I'll played this. We
didn't even breathe hard around uh Trey.

1001
01:18:30.960 --> 01:18:34.600
That's every time, every time bought
the ball to the floor. Somebody Trey

1002
01:18:34.720 --> 01:18:41.479
is fast, and Trey always towards
us, even when they're losing, tortured

1003
01:18:41.600 --> 01:18:45.239
us. And then we lost to
a team that's been having our number for

1004
01:18:45.279 --> 01:18:47.640
the last ten years. I don't
usually I don't usually do this, but

1005
01:18:48.000 --> 01:18:53.640
Slaughter has a good point. Celtics
has the same coach and system as last

1006
01:18:53.720 --> 01:18:56.039
year. The Bucks have a new
coach, a new system, and a

1007
01:18:56.119 --> 01:19:00.079
new franchise player. Don't forget when
the Heat, Lebron Wave Bosh got together,

1008
01:19:00.520 --> 01:19:09.039
they started nine and eight. So
we're not disagreeing with I'm not disagreeing.

1009
01:19:09.119 --> 01:19:11.840
What I'm saying is this last year. We saw it early. We

1010
01:19:12.039 --> 01:19:15.720
was like, you said it,
the Bucks don't have it. You said

1011
01:19:15.760 --> 01:19:16.840
it last year. You was like, the Bucks don't have it. You

1012
01:19:16.960 --> 01:19:21.359
said last year, we're losing the
teams we should be beating. By the

1013
01:19:21.479 --> 01:19:27.359
time we was like, told Joe, we had already lost Miami. So

1014
01:19:27.880 --> 01:19:30.239
my thing is this, we need
to say something now. And if Griffin

1015
01:19:30.279 --> 01:19:34.159
don't see this All Star break,
who else can we get a coach here?

1016
01:19:34.880 --> 01:19:41.439
I told you last year, but
a game by game ten, I

1017
01:19:41.520 --> 01:19:44.520
said, the Bucks don't look like
the Bucks who are gonna win a championship.

1018
01:19:45.000 --> 01:19:48.199
I called it out. Yeah,
this year is different, and the

1019
01:19:48.239 --> 01:19:54.680
only reason I see is different.
You get a championship feeling for Milwaukee this

1020
01:19:54.840 --> 01:20:00.319
year. Even though we lost those
two games. We're not losing games because

1021
01:20:02.000 --> 01:20:08.800
because we're like Scrubby. We lost
those two games. We shot horribly.

1022
01:20:10.039 --> 01:20:13.840
This is what I say. We
shot rec So here's my thing about it

1023
01:20:13.960 --> 01:20:15.880
was at one point when me and
Dre looked at the thing, what it

1024
01:20:15.960 --> 01:20:24.800
say, twelve percent eleven of twelve
percent that come on, Dame Lelard in

1025
01:20:24.880 --> 01:20:28.840
that game didn't score the first three
quarters. But you know why hold you

1026
01:20:28.880 --> 01:20:33.399
know why Atlanta put a bigger guard
on him. Dame is not a small

1027
01:20:33.960 --> 01:20:38.560
Bucks are small. Dame is not
Steph Curry. Steph Curry can get his

1028
01:20:38.720 --> 01:20:42.760
own shot, no problem. Leave
him up there on island, Dame.

1029
01:20:42.840 --> 01:20:45.119
You gotta set some screens. He
pulled off from you know, half court

1030
01:20:45.159 --> 01:20:47.920
you're not expecting, and so on
and so forth. I just see that,

1031
01:20:48.399 --> 01:20:51.079
I see a problem. I see
a problem, and to be honest

1032
01:20:51.079 --> 01:20:55.199
with you, I'm worried. And
the fact that we're five games in and

1033
01:20:55.319 --> 01:20:59.119
I'm worried right now gives me concern
for the rest of the season. I'm

1034
01:20:59.119 --> 01:21:01.600
just worried about you. Then worry
because I'm not. So let me say

1035
01:21:01.640 --> 01:21:06.800
this. So let's get that.
Let's I'm not I'm not that understood.

1036
01:21:08.079 --> 01:21:10.960
I'm not dre. I don't know
a lot of people. I'm not inside

1037
01:21:11.000 --> 01:21:15.920
the organization all of the people.
I'm a fan. I'm a fan.

1038
01:21:15.000 --> 01:21:19.560
I'm a normal fan that sits up
in the bleachers time. I'm telling a

1039
01:21:19.760 --> 01:21:27.079
normal fan that's concerned. I'm telling
you right now what we're good with Giannis

1040
01:21:27.399 --> 01:21:32.039
and Brook back there. Damn don't
got to be the best defender. So

1041
01:21:33.000 --> 01:21:36.399
so I'm gonna say Brook had eight
blocks the last game we was at.

1042
01:21:38.039 --> 01:21:43.920
I'm gonna say this, i am
not worried about Milwaukee. Worry is a

1043
01:21:43.960 --> 01:21:46.119
big word. That's a concern,
but go ahead. But I am concerned

1044
01:21:46.159 --> 01:21:51.279
because here's why I'm gonna use your
own logic against you. We ain't played

1045
01:21:51.439 --> 01:21:58.479
nobody, man. We haven't played
Boston, who are the real threat to

1046
01:21:58.600 --> 01:22:05.960
the Bucks champions ship aspirations. We
haven't played Phoenix. We haven't played Denver

1047
01:22:06.840 --> 01:22:13.239
right, who's six and one and
are destroying teams right. We haven't played

1048
01:22:13.319 --> 01:22:19.880
these new little Clippers. Yet right
there are teams right now where the Bucks

1049
01:22:23.359 --> 01:22:26.760
should be winning. But again it's
early. We'll go to a lot of

1050
01:22:26.840 --> 01:22:30.359
games this season. We got a
lot of games to still see. I

1051
01:22:30.439 --> 01:22:35.000
wish we could go to November twenty
second game Boston. That's in Boston,

1052
01:22:35.119 --> 01:22:38.800
isn't it. Did you hear what
I just said? I wish. Oh,

1053
01:22:39.000 --> 01:22:43.159
I'm gonna say, let me see
y'all want to go. I'm not

1054
01:22:43.319 --> 01:22:45.239
going to Boston. Ticket I don't
need to be I don't need to be

1055
01:22:45.319 --> 01:22:48.720
called the N word in my faces. The contract they got, you know

1056
01:22:48.760 --> 01:22:53.199
what they tickets. We thought our
tickets was hot. That Golden State,

1057
01:22:53.239 --> 01:22:56.640
ay roll man, man, that's
more than a go. That's Golden State,

1058
01:22:56.720 --> 01:23:01.039
the Bulls, Lakers, the Bucks. So there's no need to ring

1059
01:23:01.159 --> 01:23:08.560
the alarm. But next week,
by the end of Thanksgiving break when we

1060
01:23:08.840 --> 01:23:14.600
recorded again, the Bucks will be
about fifteen to twenty games in Well.

1061
01:23:14.920 --> 01:23:17.600
I mean this is this is a
continuous conversation we'll be having all year.

1062
01:23:18.560 --> 01:23:21.960
Now. I'm just asking right now, are you concerned? I'm not.

1063
01:23:23.720 --> 01:23:26.760
Are you concerned or are you concerned? Worried? Too early to call?

1064
01:23:27.000 --> 01:23:30.000
He's built for the long call.
I am not worried, but I am

1065
01:23:30.279 --> 01:23:34.520
watching. Let me just say that
answer the question. I did answer the

1066
01:23:34.600 --> 01:23:36.520
question. No, you did you
have to answer around. No, I'm

1067
01:23:36.560 --> 01:23:41.159
not I'm say not worried. I'm
not worried, he said, I'm not

1068
01:23:41.319 --> 01:23:45.319
worried, but I'm watching. I'm
watching like it's almost like I got my

1069
01:23:45.439 --> 01:23:49.760
eye on you. You ever been
disciplined as a kid and they'll say you're

1070
01:23:49.800 --> 01:23:56.720
not in trouble. But I got
my eye on that. Maybe for you,

1071
01:23:57.279 --> 01:23:59.439
what I said, I got my
eye on you. That mean you

1072
01:24:00.399 --> 01:24:04.039
No, you just ain't pushed the
bikey yet. Man. Hey, I'm

1073
01:24:04.079 --> 01:24:10.439
concerned and you and that's okay.
I'm concerned. I'm not calling the griffin.

1074
01:24:10.479 --> 01:24:13.760
I'm not calling me to get fired. I'm just concerned. Gianni is

1075
01:24:13.800 --> 01:24:16.760
fumbling the ball like he got meatball
grease on his hands. Still true.

1076
01:24:17.159 --> 01:24:20.720
I just I mean time, let's
figure this out. I mean, like

1077
01:24:20.760 --> 01:24:24.199
I said, we ain't made a
predicta. I'm gonna stick with the keys

1078
01:24:25.199 --> 01:24:29.359
logic of twenty to twenty five game? You pick? Hey, how is

1079
01:24:29.439 --> 01:24:32.119
looking because they think about this?
Remember them Lakers last year? Oh god,

1080
01:24:32.279 --> 01:24:34.920
I'm just saying, remember Lakers think
about the Lakers. Last year.

1081
01:24:34.920 --> 01:24:38.800
At this time, I was like, over, they ain't gonna win nothing.

1082
01:24:40.239 --> 01:24:44.560
You're saying that, and look where
they finished the season at NBA.

1083
01:24:44.880 --> 01:24:48.039
What's then current finals? Hey,
what do y'all owe me some money?

1084
01:24:48.119 --> 01:24:54.159
Up? Oh he didn't wear he
didn't war where when? But you got

1085
01:24:54.199 --> 01:24:57.720
a nice party gift at the end
of the season, filthy animal that I

1086
01:24:57.800 --> 01:25:09.159
still got nothing from either of you. So anyways, I gave you a

1087
01:25:09.239 --> 01:25:18.239
pardon give right, I did get
apparel old sneakers. Uh, I just

1088
01:25:18.359 --> 01:25:23.079
tossed the box. But you know, I knew y'all wouldn't take right,

1089
01:25:24.640 --> 01:25:27.840
y'all wouldn't take it serious. I
can't where I thought you was playing after

1090
01:25:27.880 --> 01:25:30.479
the Lakers incident, I thought you
was you. I wouldn't wear a laquer

1091
01:25:30.520 --> 01:25:34.560
hat. That's completely different. We
had. We had a a nice agreement

1092
01:25:34.720 --> 01:25:39.720
that we would give each other party
gifts. No you you you said,

1093
01:25:39.760 --> 01:25:42.159
I mean you said, I mean, did you get a gift? But

1094
01:25:42.239 --> 01:25:45.880
that's did you get a gift?
Oh Jesus, thanks for healing and delivering

1095
01:25:45.880 --> 01:25:51.239
because almost said it up. Anyways, my thing about me being concerned and

1096
01:25:51.319 --> 01:25:57.039
y'all not being concerned, is it
there? Yeah, I appreciate that it's

1097
01:25:57.079 --> 01:26:01.359
in a box collecting us like it. I'm gonna say something again, Jesus.

1098
01:26:02.560 --> 01:26:10.239
Anyways, hey, you already you
already said your wild comment for the

1099
01:26:10.600 --> 01:26:16.239
