1
00:00:00.200 --> 00:00:04.719
<v Speaker 1>Your friends, KT, Christina and old curmudgeon skin Way gotcha

2
00:00:05.000 --> 00:00:08.320
<v Speaker 1>on lock. Thanks for hanging out with us today. I

3
00:00:08.359 --> 00:00:12.560
<v Speaker 1>am excited for this music segment we're going to get into.

4
00:00:12.679 --> 00:00:15.000
<v Speaker 1>It's a two parter. We're going to get into it

5
00:00:15.039 --> 00:00:18.039
<v Speaker 1>at five point thirty five. It's a great KT fun

6
00:00:18.120 --> 00:00:23.160
<v Speaker 1>tweets creation and it involves the alphabet, your favorite bands,

7
00:00:23.399 --> 00:00:26.000
<v Speaker 1>and your musical brain. So don't go anywhere. We got

8
00:00:26.000 --> 00:00:30.120
<v Speaker 1>that on tap now right now. If you're paying attention

9
00:00:30.320 --> 00:00:34.320
<v Speaker 1>to the sports world, you're seeing the Oklahoma City Thunder

10
00:00:34.479 --> 00:00:37.799
<v Speaker 1>are waiting for the Indiana Pacers, who they will likely

11
00:00:37.840 --> 00:00:42.799
<v Speaker 1>play in the Western Conference Finals. But man, the Dallas

12
00:00:42.840 --> 00:00:46.560
<v Speaker 1>Mavericks got so lucky on getting the number one pick

13
00:00:47.000 --> 00:00:49.079
<v Speaker 1>when they had a one point eight percent chance of

14
00:00:49.079 --> 00:00:54.600
<v Speaker 1>getting it that I'm watching these playoffs KT, and I'm serious.

15
00:00:54.640 --> 00:00:57.479
<v Speaker 1>If they have good health next year, I don't see

16
00:00:57.479 --> 00:00:59.520
<v Speaker 1>any reason why the Mavericks can't be back in a

17
00:00:59.520 --> 00:01:04.400
<v Speaker 1>title next year. They're going to add because what you

18
00:01:04.439 --> 00:01:08.120
<v Speaker 1>need to remember is remember the Houston Rockets game this

19
00:01:08.200 --> 00:01:13.640
<v Speaker 1>year where Anthony Davis got hurt, But just remember how

20
00:01:13.680 --> 00:01:17.959
<v Speaker 1>good they looked, and there's a chance that that exact

21
00:01:18.000 --> 00:01:23.519
<v Speaker 1>team can be ready to rock in May or you know,

22
00:01:23.719 --> 00:01:27.760
<v Speaker 1>late April of next year. Also adding Cooper Flag the

23
00:01:27.840 --> 00:01:29.879
<v Speaker 1>number one pick who could start for.

24
00:01:29.879 --> 00:01:31.480
<v Speaker 2>Most teams playoff time.

25
00:01:31.680 --> 00:01:33.480
<v Speaker 1>See, that's what you're going to say, we'll be back

26
00:01:33.519 --> 00:01:38.200
<v Speaker 1>in playoff time now. The other component of this is

27
00:01:38.239 --> 00:01:42.000
<v Speaker 1>that the Mavericks are likely going to add another player,

28
00:01:42.120 --> 00:01:44.760
<v Speaker 1>a quote unquote veteran point guard. They're going to make

29
00:01:44.840 --> 00:01:47.120
<v Speaker 1>some other moves. We don't know what it is yet,

30
00:01:47.760 --> 00:01:50.159
<v Speaker 1>but you've been following this and seeing it out there

31
00:01:50.159 --> 00:01:53.280
<v Speaker 1>in the world, and there's some names worth talking about. Well, yeah,

32
00:01:53.359 --> 00:01:55.560
<v Speaker 1>Mark Stein's the first one to kind of throw out

33
00:01:55.599 --> 00:01:56.319
<v Speaker 1>a few names.

34
00:01:57.120 --> 00:01:59.599
<v Speaker 2>Again, he's just you know, yeah, he's just throwing some

35
00:01:59.599 --> 00:02:00.159
<v Speaker 2>things out there.

36
00:02:00.480 --> 00:02:02.280
<v Speaker 1>And let's just say, if you don't know Mark Stein,

37
00:02:03.760 --> 00:02:06.560
<v Speaker 1>Hall of Fame, NBA writer, reporter, and he is not

38
00:02:06.599 --> 00:02:07.640
<v Speaker 1>an opinion maker.

39
00:02:07.840 --> 00:02:09.120
<v Speaker 2>No, he is a reporter.

40
00:02:09.719 --> 00:02:13.919
<v Speaker 1>So if he's saying something, that means there's credible people

41
00:02:13.960 --> 00:02:15.800
<v Speaker 1>that are suggesting this to him.

42
00:02:15.919 --> 00:02:18.240
<v Speaker 2>That's why it's different than Steven A. Smith going I

43
00:02:18.240 --> 00:02:19.400
<v Speaker 2>think he's a joker.

44
00:02:19.560 --> 00:02:22.479
<v Speaker 1>You know, it's not that it's hey man, I'm talking

45
00:02:22.479 --> 00:02:24.319
<v Speaker 1>to people and this is what I'm here, And he

46
00:02:24.400 --> 00:02:28.159
<v Speaker 1>said Chris Paul is a name to monitor for the Mavericks.

47
00:02:28.280 --> 00:02:30.759
<v Speaker 1>That was the very first name I threw out when

48
00:02:30.759 --> 00:02:32.120
<v Speaker 1>they got the number one month ago.

49
00:02:32.280 --> 00:02:34.159
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, it was the very first name I thought of

50
00:02:34.280 --> 00:02:34.680
<v Speaker 2>and did.

51
00:02:34.759 --> 00:02:39.199
<v Speaker 1>This does work in tandem with the report that you

52
00:02:39.280 --> 00:02:41.000
<v Speaker 1>know it's probably not going to return to the Spurs.

53
00:02:41.039 --> 00:02:43.000
<v Speaker 2>He's forty. Yeah, and then.

54
00:02:42.919 --> 00:02:45.280
<v Speaker 1>You go to look at the Vegas odds and they're like, oh, yeah,

55
00:02:45.280 --> 00:02:48.680
<v Speaker 1>there's the Dallas Mavericks the number one team for Chris Paul.

56
00:02:49.080 --> 00:02:51.360
<v Speaker 2>You know, the Clippers are on. There's a couple other teams.

57
00:02:51.560 --> 00:02:57.439
<v Speaker 1>I because once Wimby Victor wimbin Yama, their old Universe player,

58
00:02:57.560 --> 00:02:59.960
<v Speaker 1>once he was out for the year and they had

59
00:03:00.039 --> 00:03:02.919
<v Speaker 1>made the darn Fox trade and then Daron Fox got hurt.

60
00:03:03.439 --> 00:03:05.919
<v Speaker 1>I kind of stopped paying attention to them. Yeah, and

61
00:03:05.960 --> 00:03:08.360
<v Speaker 1>then the Mavericks played them late in the year and

62
00:03:08.400 --> 00:03:10.439
<v Speaker 1>these back to back games, and I went and did

63
00:03:10.439 --> 00:03:13.840
<v Speaker 1>one of the games. And when we played them, Chris

64
00:03:13.879 --> 00:03:15.879
<v Speaker 1>Paul was on a stretch where he was hitting like

65
00:03:16.000 --> 00:03:19.120
<v Speaker 1>eighty percent of his threes over the previous five games.

66
00:03:19.439 --> 00:03:24.199
<v Speaker 1>So what you're talking about, Alright, he's forty. You're not

67
00:03:24.280 --> 00:03:27.479
<v Speaker 1>talking about leaning heavily on someone you're talking about getting

68
00:03:27.520 --> 00:03:29.439
<v Speaker 1>a guy that really knows how to play basketball and

69
00:03:29.439 --> 00:03:31.639
<v Speaker 1>seeing if you can get twenty minutes a night out.

70
00:03:31.520 --> 00:03:34.639
<v Speaker 2>Of him to be smart at most, at.

71
00:03:34.479 --> 00:03:36.800
<v Speaker 1>Most, just be smart and get you to the point

72
00:03:36.800 --> 00:03:39.800
<v Speaker 1>where Kyrie comes back and then he's just a part

73
00:03:39.840 --> 00:03:42.120
<v Speaker 1>of the rotation. Well, it certainly feels like they will

74
00:03:42.120 --> 00:03:45.199
<v Speaker 1>play lineups where maybe Naji Marshall has to be your

75
00:03:45.199 --> 00:03:48.080
<v Speaker 1>point guard game or six minutes a game. Did you

76
00:03:48.120 --> 00:03:50.840
<v Speaker 1>see the d magazine article our buddy Jake Ken from

77
00:03:50.840 --> 00:03:54.039
<v Speaker 1>the Dumb Zone rope? No, he finally came around and

78
00:03:54.080 --> 00:03:57.000
<v Speaker 1>decided that he would write about basketball. Okay, not just

79
00:03:57.080 --> 00:04:00.360
<v Speaker 1>back yeah, and not just you know, feeling ankst over

80
00:04:00.680 --> 00:04:01.680
<v Speaker 1>the Maverick situation.

81
00:04:01.759 --> 00:04:03.680
<v Speaker 2>Hold on, Nico's still here? Does he know that?

82
00:04:04.280 --> 00:04:06.120
<v Speaker 1>Well, you know what he was writing about, which is

83
00:04:06.120 --> 00:04:09.199
<v Speaker 1>something we've talked about. Hey, man, Cooper Flag is your

84
00:04:09.199 --> 00:04:13.280
<v Speaker 1>two guard. And it's like, it's really I didn't have

85
00:04:13.319 --> 00:04:16.600
<v Speaker 1>anybody tell me this, but I feel like I really

86
00:04:16.680 --> 00:04:20.399
<v Speaker 1>know Jason Kidd's tendencies and I know what Cooper Flag is.

87
00:04:20.959 --> 00:04:24.279
<v Speaker 1>And we weren't, you know, twenty four hours removed from

88
00:04:24.319 --> 00:04:26.600
<v Speaker 1>the lottery, and I was like, dude, if you look

89
00:04:26.600 --> 00:04:30.959
<v Speaker 1>at this team. Barring some seismic trade, which I'm I'm

90
00:04:31.079 --> 00:04:33.839
<v Speaker 1>a thousand percent entrenched in the camp of I do

91
00:04:33.920 --> 00:04:34.839
<v Speaker 1>not want to trade PJ.

92
00:04:35.079 --> 00:04:35.839
<v Speaker 2>Washington Junior.

93
00:04:36.160 --> 00:04:38.199
<v Speaker 1>I want him to be a Maverick. I think he

94
00:04:38.279 --> 00:04:40.959
<v Speaker 1>fits perfectly. I think if you want to add something,

95
00:04:41.000 --> 00:04:43.279
<v Speaker 1>I get it. He's not the guy I'm trying to trade.

96
00:04:43.439 --> 00:04:45.920
<v Speaker 1>I think him and Cooper Flag can play side by

97
00:04:45.959 --> 00:04:50.040
<v Speaker 1>side one another in three different, completely different lineups and work.

98
00:04:50.360 --> 00:04:52.720
<v Speaker 1>So I want to keep him. And the way that

99
00:04:52.839 --> 00:04:56.800
<v Speaker 1>Nico and j Kidd want to play defense, they very

100
00:04:56.879 --> 00:05:01.560
<v Speaker 1>much matter, right, Like you can play Lively and Anthony

101
00:05:01.639 --> 00:05:05.040
<v Speaker 1>Davis and Cooper Flag and PJ. Washington Junior together, and

102
00:05:05.079 --> 00:05:07.959
<v Speaker 1>you just mentioned Nausee Nage can be out there with

103
00:05:08.000 --> 00:05:10.560
<v Speaker 1>them against certain lineups. If you had Chris Paul that's

104
00:05:10.600 --> 00:05:15.519
<v Speaker 1>your starting point guard. Everyone's going, wait, what about Klay Thompson. Yeah,

105
00:05:15.560 --> 00:05:17.319
<v Speaker 1>I think this might be time for Clay to start

106
00:05:17.319 --> 00:05:20.680
<v Speaker 1>coming off the bench. Yeah, or at the age he's

107
00:05:20.720 --> 00:05:23.600
<v Speaker 1>at and still be really good, Like he will matter

108
00:05:23.879 --> 00:05:26.279
<v Speaker 1>and there will be times where he's closing games. But

109
00:05:26.800 --> 00:05:29.519
<v Speaker 1>you know, at some point, if you want to win

110
00:05:29.560 --> 00:05:31.839
<v Speaker 1>a title, you kind of have to accept where you

111
00:05:31.920 --> 00:05:35.199
<v Speaker 1>are based on the construction of the team, and Clay

112
00:05:35.240 --> 00:05:38.120
<v Speaker 1>may not be there yet, and maybe Clay is out.

113
00:05:37.959 --> 00:05:41.120
<v Speaker 2>There with the other four guys. We'll see how that goes.

114
00:05:41.399 --> 00:05:43.560
<v Speaker 1>But when I look at lineups, man, I'd love to

115
00:05:43.600 --> 00:05:45.439
<v Speaker 1>bring Klay Thompson off my bench and I have him

116
00:05:45.480 --> 00:05:48.839
<v Speaker 1>just punish second units, give you fifteen a game coming

117
00:05:48.839 --> 00:05:50.480
<v Speaker 1>off the bench and be six Man of the Year.

118
00:05:51.120 --> 00:05:52.480
<v Speaker 2>Be incredible. That'd be great.

119
00:05:52.480 --> 00:05:54.639
<v Speaker 1>And he part of that might be if he wants

120
00:05:54.680 --> 00:05:56.839
<v Speaker 1>to do that or not, or do they think they

121
00:05:56.879 --> 00:06:01.120
<v Speaker 1>could get something for him right? You know, people, I

122
00:06:01.120 --> 00:06:03.360
<v Speaker 1>think people have just already forgotten that Brandon Williams is

123
00:06:03.399 --> 00:06:05.279
<v Speaker 1>on the team. Yeah, and they like Brandon Williams. And

124
00:06:05.279 --> 00:06:07.079
<v Speaker 1>Brandon Williams has shown that he can give you twenty

125
00:06:07.160 --> 00:06:09.079
<v Speaker 1>minutes a night too. I think so too. I think

126
00:06:09.120 --> 00:06:11.360
<v Speaker 1>coming off the bench, think about him and Clay coming

127
00:06:11.399 --> 00:06:14.600
<v Speaker 1>off the bench together, that would they would give back

128
00:06:14.680 --> 00:06:17.720
<v Speaker 1>up units a lot of problems. And if you don't

129
00:06:17.720 --> 00:06:20.160
<v Speaker 1>make another trade, which I think they will. But if

130
00:06:20.160 --> 00:06:22.519
<v Speaker 1>you don't make another trade, those two guys coming off

131
00:06:22.560 --> 00:06:26.040
<v Speaker 1>the bench with Gafford, yeah.

132
00:06:25.279 --> 00:06:28.399
<v Speaker 2>Man, they're gonna give prebel problems. Xem's here too.

133
00:06:28.519 --> 00:06:31.360
<v Speaker 1>Still he can they have to re sign him, but

134
00:06:31.480 --> 00:06:34.160
<v Speaker 1>I can. They have something called early bird rights. We

135
00:06:34.160 --> 00:06:36.720
<v Speaker 1>need to get into him. You can get point guard minutes. Absolutely,

136
00:06:36.759 --> 00:06:41.279
<v Speaker 1>and he's a good defender, didn't he He ain't coming back, Eric, Yeah,

137
00:06:41.279 --> 00:06:43.920
<v Speaker 1>he's to me, he's your starter to me. Him and

138
00:06:43.959 --> 00:06:47.439
<v Speaker 1>Anthony Davis are starting side by side with PJ with

139
00:06:47.560 --> 00:06:51.279
<v Speaker 1>PJ Flag and then Nausey or Clay or Chris Paul

140
00:06:51.959 --> 00:06:54.120
<v Speaker 1>did the name Malcolm brog didn't make it out there.

141
00:06:54.480 --> 00:06:56.839
<v Speaker 1>I didn't see the two names that were floated in

142
00:06:56.879 --> 00:07:00.639
<v Speaker 1>his arcle row Lonzo ball play players of mine missile,

143
00:07:00.759 --> 00:07:02.560
<v Speaker 1>which I don't have a lot of interesting only because

144
00:07:02.600 --> 00:07:05.759
<v Speaker 1>I I just it's' he's gonna get hurt.

145
00:07:05.839 --> 00:07:07.879
<v Speaker 2>He's now it is. I'm sorry it sucks for him.

146
00:07:08.000 --> 00:07:11.199
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, and then uh Drew Holliday, which would be a

147
00:07:11.279 --> 00:07:14.040
<v Speaker 1>lot of maneuvering. And I think it's too much money

148
00:07:14.079 --> 00:07:16.360
<v Speaker 1>for him at that age. He makes a ton of money.

149
00:07:16.639 --> 00:07:19.439
<v Speaker 1>But you know, and uh, everybody talking about the Celtics.

150
00:07:20.160 --> 00:07:21.959
