So I hope you 7 00:00:16,320 --> 00:00:18,640 know your stats and there kell get it wrong. Then 8 00:00:18,679 --> 00:00:21,120 with shot have his best with the facts matter the 9 00:00:21,199 --> 00:00:21,960 fact that we do. 10 00:00:22,039 --> 00:00:25,519 Speaker 2: With saving when wings wings congret, they should say, hey 11 00:00:25,719 --> 00:00:27,600 me raise the fakes, wins. 12 00:00:27,359 --> 00:00:30,559 Speaker 1: Loss the latest news. But Kim speak you got him 13 00:00:30,559 --> 00:00:34,119 saying all we can appreciate Cared Preacher for shoting Misoda, 14 00:00:34,200 --> 00:00:36,079 the summer count of wild Card Sports and wild Car 15 00:00:36,200 --> 00:00:37,560 TV with Shopping Brothers going on. 16 00:00:37,600 --> 00:00:40,560 Speaker 2: Man, man, we got the w B NBA draft in 17 00:00:40,600 --> 00:00:43,719 the books, NBA playoffs about to jump off. Playing is 18 00:00:43,719 --> 00:00:48,000 going on right now. So you know who says the 19 00:00:48,000 --> 00:00:49,320 who session is about to get real. 20 00:00:49,399 --> 00:00:51,719 Speaker 1: Man, I'm say man, I'm excited. I know. I know 21 00:00:51,759 --> 00:00:53,560 a lot of people got like a lot to say 22 00:00:53,600 --> 00:00:57,920 about how the regular season ended just before we get 23 00:00:57,960 --> 00:01:00,960 into the playoff talk. What what were your thoughts about it? 24 00:01:01,000 --> 00:01:03,960 Because to me, if a third of the team is tanking, 25 00:01:04,359 --> 00:01:06,840 they don't want to win anyway, right and then if 26 00:01:06,840 --> 00:01:10,680 you already locked in, just like NFL, they sit down. 27 00:01:10,879 --> 00:01:12,560 We get you know, we got eighteen, they sit down. 28 00:01:12,599 --> 00:01:15,280 So I didn't see no difference between that, But people 29 00:01:15,319 --> 00:01:16,239 made a big worry about it. 30 00:01:17,519 --> 00:01:19,519 Speaker 2: No, it was kind of weird. I mean, I wish 31 00:01:19,599 --> 00:01:23,040 it was more like the NFL, where you're playing like 32 00:01:23,079 --> 00:01:26,599 a division opponent somewhere there are some stakes involved. But 33 00:01:27,239 --> 00:01:29,640 just how the NBA schedule is set up, you really 34 00:01:29,799 --> 00:01:32,319 just can't have that. You can't. You don't know who's 35 00:01:32,359 --> 00:01:35,640 gonna be tanking and whatnot. So yeah, I mean even 36 00:01:36,000 --> 00:01:37,680 you didn't like the Hawks, they were like, we're gonna 37 00:01:37,680 --> 00:01:39,560 be five or six, so that don't matter, so we 38 00:01:40,000 --> 00:01:43,319 ain't got to go all out with our people. Or 39 00:01:43,719 --> 00:01:47,079 like Orlando, they played in a little bit and they 40 00:01:47,159 --> 00:01:51,359 took You know, it's just those situations where some stuff 41 00:01:51,359 --> 00:01:54,599 you just can't predict. You know, Uh, steel bad for 42 00:01:54,640 --> 00:01:59,400 the fans, you know, with you're paying to go see 43 00:01:59,400 --> 00:02:02,519 a game, but y'alla play in the game so he 44 00:02:02,560 --> 00:02:04,760 can meet the sixty five game rule. But you know, 45 00:02:04,879 --> 00:02:07,799 just all the nuances all right, you think the Magic 46 00:02:07,799 --> 00:02:10,199 gonna trying to go forward and get the seventh spot 47 00:02:10,240 --> 00:02:12,840 to host one more home game for you, but they 48 00:02:12,840 --> 00:02:14,599 don't really take it serious and they trigger it off 49 00:02:14,599 --> 00:02:17,560 against to sell his backup. So a lot of just 50 00:02:17,599 --> 00:02:20,599 a little weird nuances. And then of course people aren't 51 00:02:20,599 --> 00:02:22,639 trying to get certain guys hurt, so they're like, let's 52 00:02:22,800 --> 00:02:25,520 just not play any of them. 53 00:02:25,759 --> 00:02:29,599 Speaker 1: It's ay, except the first round pick, the first of 54 00:02:29,599 --> 00:02:31,560 a round picked from two years ago and reached. He 55 00:02:31,599 --> 00:02:34,039 played with all the Hawks players didn't play. He over 56 00:02:34,080 --> 00:02:37,039 here played with the Baker. Oh what a terrible pick, 57 00:02:37,039 --> 00:02:39,360 because they that drag class low key. I mean, just 58 00:02:39,360 --> 00:02:42,400 what we're talking about, really quick. Sar looks good in 59 00:02:42,520 --> 00:02:44,800 year through I think this year three, right or you two? 60 00:02:45,240 --> 00:02:49,719 You too, Sarl looks good castle Obviously he's gonna be 61 00:02:49,879 --> 00:02:53,000 what maybe second team, first team All defense type of 62 00:02:53,039 --> 00:02:55,479 a guy. Uh who who else was in that class 63 00:02:55,520 --> 00:02:59,520 looking pretty good? Here's one person that's pretty pretty good 64 00:02:59,520 --> 00:03:02,439 in that class too. Anyway, I mean it was kind. 65 00:03:02,319 --> 00:03:04,520 Speaker 2: Of a role player draft, you know. That really wasn't 66 00:03:04,560 --> 00:03:07,560 the Yeah, that was twenty twenty four class. So that 67 00:03:07,719 --> 00:03:10,719 was kind of that role player role player draft. You know, 68 00:03:10,759 --> 00:03:16,919 you had uh Clinging in the playoffs, Clinging look good. 69 00:03:17,439 --> 00:03:19,120 Speaker 1: I mean, one of the best rebounds in the basketball 70 00:03:19,240 --> 00:03:23,199 Reeed Shepherd had some moments I wish they'd playing more. 71 00:03:23,240 --> 00:03:26,919 Speaker 2: But you know, yeah, the heat they have Khalil where 72 00:03:26,800 --> 00:03:31,560 he's been, he's solid. He pretty solid. These guys, I 73 00:03:31,599 --> 00:03:33,439 mean some of the guys, Jeremy Jared McCain was in 74 00:03:33,479 --> 00:03:33,800 the one. 75 00:03:33,840 --> 00:03:36,439 Speaker 1: I think, yeah, yep, yep, yep. Mean he's I mean 76 00:03:36,599 --> 00:03:38,439 when he when he's healthy, he's he's solid. I mean 77 00:03:38,439 --> 00:03:40,319 I just say like that outside of each I say, 78 00:03:40,759 --> 00:03:43,960 uh man. Anyway, So question for you before we get 79 00:03:44,000 --> 00:03:46,840 to the playoffs. So on the on the Hawks one, 80 00:03:47,879 --> 00:03:53,719 do you think that they probably realized, like because somebody 81 00:03:53,840 --> 00:03:57,800 it was saying that if Magic had won and Hawks 82 00:03:57,840 --> 00:04:00,000 lost and Raptors won, it's been a three way time 83 00:04:00,680 --> 00:04:02,960 and in that three rate tied, Hawks still the five seed. 84 00:04:04,000 --> 00:04:07,560 So they probably just assume Matter is gonna win, and 85 00:04:07,560 --> 00:04:09,479 they realized, like, all right, if they if they don't, 86 00:04:09,479 --> 00:04:11,719 do we care. So that's why they probably don't play nobody, 87 00:04:11,719 --> 00:04:13,879 because you could have won the game and played Calves. 88 00:04:13,960 --> 00:04:19,600 But maybe that Calves Piston's path ain't necessary. We don't know. 89 00:04:19,639 --> 00:04:21,160 I don't I don't know how the teams are thinking, 90 00:04:21,199 --> 00:04:23,600 but I thought I was kind of kind of funded 91 00:04:23,600 --> 00:04:25,839 by them. I guess they assume Orlando should win and 92 00:04:25,879 --> 00:04:28,279 then Orlando realized it was in a doll fight and 93 00:04:28,319 --> 00:04:32,959 they couldn't stop Ron Harper Jr. Let alone, Dylan harp 94 00:04:33,040 --> 00:04:38,560 Over the San Antonio and then alright, last one before 95 00:04:38,560 --> 00:04:42,519 we get into the matchup Spurs. Do you think they 96 00:04:42,519 --> 00:04:45,600 really should they should just I don't know, Bro, I 97 00:04:45,600 --> 00:04:48,639 think they we're we'll talk about the seven matchup. They're 98 00:04:48,639 --> 00:04:51,079 probably they gonn win that matchup, right, But you could 99 00:04:51,120 --> 00:04:56,120 have played the Lakers or Wolves. I guess we would have 100 00:04:56,120 --> 00:04:59,160 been the Wolves probably. I guess that they think it's 101 00:04:59,199 --> 00:05:01,040 easy to play n Is because I'm not I'm trying 102 00:05:01,040 --> 00:05:02,800 to duck yo. I ain't gonna lie to you boy 103 00:05:03,360 --> 00:05:05,160 like I would have. I probably would have because that 104 00:05:05,160 --> 00:05:07,240 probably been the team that given the most trouble. But remember, 105 00:05:07,360 --> 00:05:09,399 I think I'm on record saying Wolves. I think it's 106 00:05:09,439 --> 00:05:12,639 a good team against the Spurs too. So what do 107 00:05:12,639 --> 00:05:13,759 you think about that that decision? 108 00:05:13,800 --> 00:05:17,240 Speaker 2: I guess, well, the Spurs they couldn't avoid anybody. They 109 00:05:17,279 --> 00:05:19,839 had sixty two wins, Like nobody was even fighting for 110 00:05:20,000 --> 00:05:22,199 the two spots, so they couldn't avoid anybody. They were 111 00:05:22,199 --> 00:05:24,240 locked into the two no matter what. Because Okay, se 112 00:05:24,240 --> 00:05:27,360 had sixty four wins and the Spurs had sixty two, 113 00:05:27,439 --> 00:05:28,959 they were gonna be locked in the two. 114 00:05:29,079 --> 00:05:31,199 Speaker 1: But you could have you could have put, you could 115 00:05:31,199 --> 00:05:33,120 have put, you could have made nuggets four if you 116 00:05:33,120 --> 00:05:34,439 beat them. 117 00:05:34,680 --> 00:05:36,399 Speaker 2: I mean, I don't really think they were thinking about that, 118 00:05:36,519 --> 00:05:39,639 just because yeah, I don't ever think about that, just 119 00:05:39,680 --> 00:05:43,279 looking at how the playoffs made play out. Because even 120 00:05:43,319 --> 00:05:45,399 if you were to say, well, hypothetically, well if we 121 00:05:45,480 --> 00:05:48,240 get to the West finals and they were to be 122 00:05:48,480 --> 00:05:54,000 okay See in the one four matchup, they want to 123 00:05:54,000 --> 00:05:56,480 play in many ways, so I only think it mattered 124 00:05:56,519 --> 00:05:59,839 to them. So yeah, I think, you know, two seven, 125 00:06:00,120 --> 00:06:04,240 they'll probably they will probably get suns, so that should 126 00:06:04,240 --> 00:06:06,360 be a pretty decent match of form. They can probably 127 00:06:06,399 --> 00:06:08,399 wipe them whoever they get at Sam and they should 128 00:06:08,480 --> 00:06:10,319 win in the file. I think that should be a 129 00:06:10,360 --> 00:06:11,439 wipe down series. 130 00:06:12,120 --> 00:06:15,800 Speaker 1: I like them, I like the so I prefer and 131 00:06:16,199 --> 00:06:19,040 like you said, were recording this during the all the 132 00:06:19,079 --> 00:06:21,360 playing games. So when you get your information, me and 133 00:06:21,399 --> 00:06:23,439 racheand go tell you right now. Sports spoiler alert. We 134 00:06:23,920 --> 00:06:27,879 believe Pistons, Celtics, Spurs and okay See will evance spoiler 135 00:06:27,879 --> 00:06:31,800 alert no matter who they play, but from a matchup perspective. 136 00:06:32,040 --> 00:06:36,439 I would rather Portland Spurs Sons okay see, just for 137 00:06:36,560 --> 00:06:40,360 matchup purposes, because I think Sons match up well against Okay. 138 00:06:40,360 --> 00:06:43,000 SE's like you said, it's still gonna wipe down regardless. 139 00:06:43,199 --> 00:06:46,079 But Portland can't shoot threes and they will probably get 140 00:06:46,120 --> 00:06:49,120 round of that damn gym against the Okay see when 141 00:06:49,160 --> 00:06:51,439 they start firing threes away and they can't keep up 142 00:06:51,560 --> 00:06:54,240 where versus where you got clinging. We just talked about 143 00:06:54,240 --> 00:06:58,639 that draft. He's over here averaging like ten blood rebounds 144 00:06:58,680 --> 00:07:00,199 a game. At least he's a big monster there, you 145 00:07:00,240 --> 00:07:02,720 know what I mean? He not somebody got gard winby right. 146 00:07:02,800 --> 00:07:05,199 And if you if you're not gonna stop him or 147 00:07:05,199 --> 00:07:08,240 out scorm like can do, you have to be just 148 00:07:08,240 --> 00:07:10,680 as big as him and clinging a damn Frankenstein. So 149 00:07:11,319 --> 00:07:12,879 that's the match I do want to see if it 150 00:07:12,879 --> 00:07:17,000 does happen. But we can start in the we can 151 00:07:17,040 --> 00:07:20,600 just stay in the Western Shide. Let's go to uh 152 00:07:21,120 --> 00:07:23,560 something we can do go over quickly l A Houston. 153 00:07:25,319 --> 00:07:27,600 Just to just to tell you the odds on this 154 00:07:27,639 --> 00:07:31,680 one to win the series, Rockets are overwhelming minus seven 155 00:07:31,800 --> 00:07:36,079 seventy to win the series. And I want to say, 156 00:07:36,120 --> 00:07:40,079 what is the what is the total? They have the 157 00:07:40,160 --> 00:07:44,319 Rockets winning this series? Minus two and a half is 158 00:07:44,319 --> 00:07:48,439 the spread. So we're talking, we're talking, we're talking for 159 00:07:49,279 --> 00:07:53,199 one and so do you do you do you agree 160 00:07:53,199 --> 00:07:55,480 with Vegas or where you going with this in this series? 161 00:07:56,680 --> 00:07:59,319 Speaker 2: I mean, you gotta take Rockets. The Lakers are down, 162 00:07:59,560 --> 00:08:02,560 Luca and Reeves, two or three best players are down. 163 00:08:03,079 --> 00:08:05,720 They probably won't come back. We know reed Res is 164 00:08:05,720 --> 00:08:08,319 gonna be out for weeks, so he won't be back 165 00:08:08,319 --> 00:08:11,199 into a second round if they get there. And even 166 00:08:11,240 --> 00:08:13,399 with Luca, if he was to come back, let's say 167 00:08:13,480 --> 00:08:18,240 midway through the series, somehow you've been off with your 168 00:08:18,240 --> 00:08:20,439 hamstring all that kind of stuff, you won't be in 169 00:08:21,639 --> 00:08:25,279 great game shape. So I mean, some of Luca is 170 00:08:25,319 --> 00:08:26,600 still better than a lot of people. 171 00:08:27,160 --> 00:08:30,959 Speaker 1: But it's unfortunate. 172 00:08:32,159 --> 00:08:34,159 Speaker 2: It's a bad circumstances because they were making a lot 173 00:08:34,159 --> 00:08:36,600 of noise where they could have been a legit championship contender. 174 00:08:37,240 --> 00:08:39,279 Defense studients don't work where they could have at least 175 00:08:39,279 --> 00:08:42,679 tried to make a decent run. We know Lebron is 176 00:08:42,759 --> 00:08:45,039 winding down, so that's really to me all this is about. 177 00:08:45,840 --> 00:08:48,279 You got to look at it from a historical standpoint, 178 00:08:48,440 --> 00:08:51,559 this is probably one of one of, if not the 179 00:08:51,679 --> 00:08:55,919 last time we get a Lebron KD matchup, two of 180 00:08:55,960 --> 00:08:59,639 the greats from Little Hard the previous era, but still 181 00:08:59,679 --> 00:09:02,200 doing it in the current era. So it's probably the 182 00:09:02,240 --> 00:09:04,600 last times we get that match up. Their previous ones 183 00:09:04,639 --> 00:09:07,960 have been finals, okay, see Miami and then of course 184 00:09:08,039 --> 00:09:13,320 Golden State Cleveland. So what they've done historically, this to me, 185 00:09:13,440 --> 00:09:15,720 doesn't matter to either one of their resumes or legacies. 186 00:09:16,000 --> 00:09:19,840 If they were, you know, advanced, whoever advances, if Lebron 187 00:09:19,919 --> 00:09:23,759 does it under manned slight feather in the cap because 188 00:09:23,759 --> 00:09:27,000 he's forty one and got it done. But for the Rockets, 189 00:09:27,000 --> 00:09:29,600 at they advance, you're still beating up on a depleted team. 190 00:09:29,720 --> 00:09:32,159 So really want to mean. 191 00:09:32,399 --> 00:09:35,559 Speaker 1: Much Rockets lose the series? Oh my god? 192 00:09:36,639 --> 00:09:39,240 Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, I mean, but even then it still won't 193 00:09:39,440 --> 00:09:42,440 it still won't diminish like KD is the kind of 194 00:09:42,559 --> 00:09:44,519 missed the season of the Rockets. I think they won 195 00:09:44,559 --> 00:09:47,679 fifty two games last year. There's between that win tot 196 00:09:47,720 --> 00:09:50,440 and this total. Last year they were two seeds fifty two. 197 00:09:50,440 --> 00:09:54,480 This year is a five seed. So that's that's a huge, 198 00:09:55,200 --> 00:09:58,679 a huge swing right there. From a matchup standpoint, Honestly, 199 00:09:59,279 --> 00:10:03,120 nothing in the this matters to me except for the Nuggets. 200 00:10:03,200 --> 00:10:04,759 To me, that's all that I care about in the 201 00:10:04,799 --> 00:10:08,840 West right now, whether it's first round or future rounds. Nuggets, 202 00:10:08,879 --> 00:10:11,279 if they are to win the West, they have to 203 00:10:11,440 --> 00:10:14,519 run a complete gauntlet. You have to play the Wolves 204 00:10:14,720 --> 00:10:19,480 three six, a team you struggle with in some spaces 205 00:10:19,519 --> 00:10:21,799 regular season wise and postseason, while you have some tough 206 00:10:21,799 --> 00:10:27,000 battles with them. Assuming Chalk, Nuggets will play the Spurs, 207 00:10:27,360 --> 00:10:29,320 a sixty two win team with win be on the 208 00:10:29,360 --> 00:10:31,799 defensive end, Yeah, the Spurs don't have a lot of 209 00:10:31,799 --> 00:10:34,799 playoff experience, but you're still gonna be in a tough 210 00:10:34,840 --> 00:10:39,159 matchup with them. And again, Assueman, Chalk, you're gonna run 211 00:10:39,200 --> 00:10:43,519 into OKAC. You did go seven with them, But after 212 00:10:43,679 --> 00:10:49,240 potentially two grueling series against Wolves and Spurs, what would 213 00:10:49,279 --> 00:10:52,039 you have left in the tank versus a thunder? Because 214 00:10:52,159 --> 00:10:54,960 Yolki has already been carrying the damn team all regular 215 00:10:55,000 --> 00:10:57,519 season anyway, so at some point he's gonna gas out. 216 00:10:57,600 --> 00:11:00,799 I feel bad for you. One of the best players ever, 217 00:11:01,080 --> 00:11:03,679 and yeah he has helped, but the team has been 218 00:11:03,720 --> 00:11:06,360 in it, so he really hasn't technically had it. He's 219 00:11:06,399 --> 00:11:08,639 been he's been a one man showed to it sort 220 00:11:08,679 --> 00:11:12,120 extent average of a triple double won't even probably be 221 00:11:12,200 --> 00:11:14,120 top three or four for m v P. Well, he'll 222 00:11:14,120 --> 00:11:15,840 probably get top three down because he won't make the 223 00:11:15,840 --> 00:11:19,559 balance should be two. Hey should win the motherfucker, I'm 224 00:11:20,200 --> 00:11:23,600 because if Yokis went down, the Nuggets would not be 225 00:11:23,720 --> 00:11:26,279 in the playoffs. Like the Nuggets won fifty four games 226 00:11:26,320 --> 00:11:30,559 with Yo pitch and he played sixty five. If Yogis 227 00:11:30,679 --> 00:11:33,759 was not there, they probably not even playing a team 228 00:11:33,799 --> 00:11:38,000 because Gordon been hurt, Cam been out, not him character 229 00:11:38,080 --> 00:11:40,720 no five hundred records. So Yoki should Hey, I know, 230 00:11:40,840 --> 00:11:42,799 shade the man, best team in the West, all that 231 00:11:42,879 --> 00:11:46,039 kind of stuff, But well, Yokeins did this year. This year, 232 00:11:46,080 --> 00:11:48,080 you can probably have six m vps for real, you 233 00:11:48,120 --> 00:11:50,960 can make a case for like sixty guys. I would 234 00:11:51,000 --> 00:11:53,320 probably vote Yoki athan triple dope and what he did 235 00:11:53,360 --> 00:11:54,480 for Denver as a three. 236 00:11:54,679 --> 00:11:56,559 Speaker 1: Come on, man, I about say. You make a good 237 00:11:56,559 --> 00:11:59,519 point that he only played sixty five. So it's funny 238 00:11:59,559 --> 00:12:02,240 because they're their season total. Their win total was fifty 239 00:12:02,279 --> 00:12:04,320 three over fifty three and a half. They got fifty four, 240 00:12:04,399 --> 00:12:07,679 so they barely got it. No matter. It's funny because 241 00:12:07,679 --> 00:12:11,279 you know it's always about like you know that phrase, 242 00:12:11,440 --> 00:12:13,879 uh do you do you enjoy the journey or the 243 00:12:13,919 --> 00:12:16,399 result type of thing. It's like, the result is they 244 00:12:16,480 --> 00:12:18,120 got the old they got what they supposed to do. 245 00:12:18,200 --> 00:12:19,720 They did what they supposed to do, But the journey 246 00:12:19,759 --> 00:12:23,440 to get there was like you said on Jamal Murray, 247 00:12:23,639 --> 00:12:26,000 Jamal Murray did bring up his game. And I don't 248 00:12:26,000 --> 00:12:28,480 know they had to do with the Michael Porter Junior 249 00:12:29,080 --> 00:12:33,279 departure because to me, the Peyton Watson's and Cam Johnson's, 250 00:12:33,320 --> 00:12:36,639 the Julian Strather, to me, that was just a bunch 251 00:12:36,679 --> 00:12:38,919 of guys. Now you got more depth. But I think 252 00:12:38,960 --> 00:12:41,679 Porter Jr. Was more you know, shoot a lot of shots, 253 00:12:41,679 --> 00:12:43,919 and I thought Jamal Murray got those shots. So because 254 00:12:43,960 --> 00:12:46,039 he because he had his best career year this year. 255 00:12:46,080 --> 00:12:48,840 So as long way yo, which this is his best, 256 00:12:49,080 --> 00:12:54,879 this is his best year, He's not gonna win because 257 00:12:55,000 --> 00:12:58,240 he got he got three. Evp's right. So this man, 258 00:12:58,320 --> 00:12:59,919 this man, the man got. 259 00:12:59,720 --> 00:13:03,039 Speaker 2: Three and he could have probably won, but he could 260 00:13:03,279 --> 00:13:05,240 he could have legit won six in a row. By 261 00:13:07,120 --> 00:13:09,519 he won, he won he was second to mb he 262 00:13:09,519 --> 00:13:12,120 could have won that. He won again. He was second 263 00:13:12,200 --> 00:13:16,000 last year. They Yeah, he was second last year to Shade, 264 00:13:16,320 --> 00:13:19,039 and he may be second or third depending on how 265 00:13:19,080 --> 00:13:23,200 you feel about Shade and winby. But for me, you 266 00:13:23,320 --> 00:13:26,799 leading the league in rebounds, you leading the league in assists, 267 00:13:26,840 --> 00:13:29,519 you averaging twenty seven. Your team is in the three seed, 268 00:13:29,759 --> 00:13:31,440 and if you weren't there, they would not be in 269 00:13:31,440 --> 00:13:34,919 that spot. Look, man, get yoall get damned the goat 270 00:13:35,120 --> 00:13:38,879 for the right now, the sixth year run. He is own, bro, 271 00:13:39,120 --> 00:13:40,759 this is all time level stuff. 272 00:13:40,879 --> 00:13:43,080 Speaker 1: Yeah he did, he said he didn't go. That's funny. 273 00:13:43,639 --> 00:13:45,799 So all right, So in that series of Minnesota Denver, 274 00:13:47,080 --> 00:13:51,360 the spread, the spread ist uh plus plus or minus 275 00:13:51,399 --> 00:13:53,279 one and a half. So take Minnesota, you get plus 276 00:13:53,360 --> 00:13:56,240 money plus one sixteen and Nuggets the win by two. 277 00:13:56,279 --> 00:13:58,720 So four two Nuggets minus one forty two. So it's 278 00:13:58,799 --> 00:14:00,879 kind of juiced a little bit to win by two. 279 00:14:02,519 --> 00:14:05,080 So all right, So the Nuggets have played better this 280 00:14:05,240 --> 00:14:10,279 season against the Wolves than previous. The question is how 281 00:14:10,360 --> 00:14:14,480 how how much do we like the Wolves in this series? 282 00:14:14,519 --> 00:14:17,720 Because we just talked. We talked about how great Yoga's been, 283 00:14:17,720 --> 00:14:21,120 we talked about this team who made the conference finals 284 00:14:21,600 --> 00:14:23,879 last year and everybody counted them out and say it 285 00:14:23,919 --> 00:14:26,039 was a fluke the first time. Then they made it again. 286 00:14:26,799 --> 00:14:31,240 So like, where do we swing that? Because this team 287 00:14:31,360 --> 00:14:33,840 played well against Spurs and played well against the Nuggets, 288 00:14:33,840 --> 00:14:38,000 and they asked that's when they way. 289 00:14:40,720 --> 00:14:44,799 Speaker 2: I don't know, man, Like they they've been an interesting team. 290 00:14:45,039 --> 00:14:47,879 You know, we thought when they moved off CAB what 291 00:14:47,919 --> 00:14:49,519 were they doing when they tried for go bet, Like, 292 00:14:49,559 --> 00:14:53,840 what were they doing? But the last two years everything 293 00:14:53,919 --> 00:14:59,960 is panned out. They've been fifty six wins made West fine, 294 00:15:00,519 --> 00:15:04,720 forty nine wins made West finals. You have forty nine again, 295 00:15:04,919 --> 00:15:09,840 So they're on a nice little three year heater. It's 296 00:15:09,919 --> 00:15:12,840 just the West is so low, man. The West is tough, 297 00:15:13,320 --> 00:15:17,000 Like what OKC is doing, what Jokis and Denver are doing, 298 00:15:17,759 --> 00:15:21,480 Spurs emerging this year, and what Ant and the Wolves 299 00:15:21,480 --> 00:15:23,919 have done the last three years. Man, for all that 300 00:15:23,919 --> 00:15:28,440 to be happening simultaneously, and we're not even talking about 301 00:15:28,879 --> 00:15:32,519 Lakers acquiring Luca and pairing that with Bron, Like, the 302 00:15:32,559 --> 00:15:35,120 West is just gonna be a gauntlet. Man, when we 303 00:15:35,159 --> 00:15:38,679 look at this stuff five ten years from now, crazy, 304 00:15:38,960 --> 00:15:41,360 you know, you're gonna look at why didn't somebody win 305 00:15:41,399 --> 00:15:43,840 a championship? Why didn't they make a final? It's gonna 306 00:15:43,840 --> 00:15:48,240 be because they were all basically beating hill off each other, Like, 307 00:15:48,240 --> 00:15:50,360 this's why this is gonna be almost like why did 308 00:15:50,440 --> 00:15:52,200 Charles Barker only make one final? 309 00:15:52,600 --> 00:15:55,039 Speaker 1: By saying it's almost similar to the damn mugget Droning 310 00:15:55,080 --> 00:15:58,159 got six? Yeah, because they fucker did knocking each other out. 311 00:15:58,320 --> 00:16:01,480 That makes sense. That makes sense now. So it's funny 312 00:16:01,919 --> 00:16:03,720 we talked about all these different moves. You mentioned the 313 00:16:04,200 --> 00:16:07,519 cat move, the Arrando, the gold bear and trade. All 314 00:16:07,559 --> 00:16:11,120 this stuff only works if you're best. The best player 315 00:16:11,120 --> 00:16:14,360 you betting on does his part right, and and and 316 00:16:14,519 --> 00:16:17,480 man has letter to the hype this year. He battles 317 00:16:17,519 --> 00:16:21,039 some injuries, right, And is that a testament to how 318 00:16:21,080 --> 00:16:23,519 deep they go in the playoffs? You have the Olympics, 319 00:16:23,840 --> 00:16:27,679 all the different stuff coming up from and all that 320 00:16:27,759 --> 00:16:30,440 kind of stuff like how much you know, wearing tear 321 00:16:30,480 --> 00:16:34,000 on the body. It's funny that the one move that 322 00:16:34,039 --> 00:16:37,720 they probably should have made might cost him. And that's 323 00:16:38,159 --> 00:16:41,360 my vote for most improved player, the ka Alexander Walker. 324 00:16:41,440 --> 00:16:44,960 That might be that you know, you trade cat Rentalm. Oh, 325 00:16:44,960 --> 00:16:46,639 oh my gosh. Oh he traded the first round picks 326 00:16:46,639 --> 00:16:48,480 for Goldbert, Oh my gosh. And little do we know 327 00:16:49,399 --> 00:16:52,840 letting Thelexender Walker walk out the door might have been 328 00:16:52,840 --> 00:16:55,480 the bad move because they they chose to re sign 329 00:16:55,600 --> 00:17:00,480 nas Reed and he hasn't really played like well he's playing, 330 00:17:00,759 --> 00:17:03,159 and then Nickolex and Walker over here dominating them with 331 00:17:03,200 --> 00:17:05,559 the Hawks. So I want, I wonder how much of 332 00:17:05,559 --> 00:17:07,400 a factor that's gonna be. But it's kind of like 333 00:17:07,720 --> 00:17:10,039 the Kailexander Walker gone. I Canna port A junior gone. 334 00:17:10,079 --> 00:17:12,960 I'm not the biggest Cam Johnson supporter, but I know 335 00:17:13,039 --> 00:17:15,640 he plays, you know, he plays defense and he can 336 00:17:15,680 --> 00:17:17,640 make some shots, but I don't, I don't know. I'm 337 00:17:17,839 --> 00:17:19,400 a more like Cola port A junior fan in that sense. 338 00:17:19,440 --> 00:17:23,160 But I think both teams are banged up a little bit, right, 339 00:17:23,519 --> 00:17:26,359 Aaron Gordon still coming back from what he's been playing, 340 00:17:26,440 --> 00:17:30,240 Peyton Watson back, all these different guys. It's good. I 341 00:17:30,279 --> 00:17:32,039 think it's gonna be a good series. I'm taking I'm 342 00:17:32,039 --> 00:17:34,480 taking nuggets though, and I'm kind of like running away 343 00:17:34,519 --> 00:17:38,640 with like not not four two. I'm I would take 344 00:17:38,680 --> 00:17:40,960 the two four two. I just don't I don't know 345 00:17:41,000 --> 00:17:43,240 if Nuggets just I don't know, if Wolves just have 346 00:17:44,279 --> 00:17:49,559 a lot too many issues. Maybe and maybe Ao the 347 00:17:49,640 --> 00:17:53,079 some who audition was great, was gonna's gonna help them 348 00:17:53,079 --> 00:17:56,480 out and replace that Nikidlexander Walker role. But I don't know. 349 00:17:56,519 --> 00:18:01,640 I just feel like I just like Yo's gonna get him. 350 00:18:01,680 --> 00:18:03,319 He gonna get him because this year they've been playing 351 00:18:03,319 --> 00:18:05,039 a little bit better at Jamal Murray. You know what 352 00:18:05,039 --> 00:18:07,359 happens in the playoffs, but he getting playoffs, so he 353 00:18:07,440 --> 00:18:10,920 go to like him and him and Jim Butler, those 354 00:18:10,920 --> 00:18:13,400 two guys go up to the overalls in the playoffs. 355 00:18:13,440 --> 00:18:16,000 So and we know how Aaron Gordon is in the playoffs. 356 00:18:16,240 --> 00:18:18,119 So I'm taking them in six. 357 00:18:19,440 --> 00:18:22,839 Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm going Denver. I think just what Yogis can do, 358 00:18:22,920 --> 00:18:26,039 the way he controls the game, he normally, I don't 359 00:18:26,079 --> 00:18:29,279 wanna say dominates Gobert, but he normally wins that matchup 360 00:18:29,359 --> 00:18:34,039 pretty pretty handily. So definitely gonna favor that. And then 361 00:18:34,160 --> 00:18:39,480 to me, how many games the Wolves do win will 362 00:18:39,559 --> 00:18:42,200 be dependent upon Jade McDaniels, Like, how was he scoring 363 00:18:42,240 --> 00:18:46,599 the ball? Shooting the ball? You know, if he pans out, Yeah, 364 00:18:46,799 --> 00:18:51,279 if he's heavily involved in executing Jade McDaniels can be 365 00:18:51,319 --> 00:18:54,200 the reason why the Wolves do win it versus losing 366 00:18:54,200 --> 00:18:56,880 it in five or six. But I'm taking Denver. 367 00:18:57,279 --> 00:18:59,079 Speaker 1: And it's funny because as you mentioned that, because as 368 00:18:59,160 --> 00:19:03,519 much as uh a man speak up for Jamie Dames, 369 00:19:03,519 --> 00:19:05,599 he better show up, like you know what I'm saying, 370 00:19:05,680 --> 00:19:08,519 Like he uh and man put a lot of stock 371 00:19:08,559 --> 00:19:10,319 in him, so he better show up in his in 372 00:19:10,359 --> 00:19:14,160 this series. Let's push to the east real quick. So 373 00:19:14,200 --> 00:19:16,519 we both got Rockets winning, we both got Nuggets winning, 374 00:19:16,920 --> 00:19:18,759 we got rock We got Rockets in a wipe down 375 00:19:18,880 --> 00:19:22,599 or then Rockets disappoint but but but still pull it out. 376 00:19:23,079 --> 00:19:25,480 Speaker 2: Rockets should do it in five, Like, Bro, look at 377 00:19:25,480 --> 00:19:26,559 who the Lakers gotta play? 378 00:19:29,839 --> 00:19:36,240 Speaker 1: Gonna ruy Van do Bronnie to get play big up? Hey? 379 00:19:36,519 --> 00:19:40,440 If okay, Rockets will wipe down Lakers. If Reed Shepherd play, 380 00:19:41,960 --> 00:19:43,839 you gotta put somebody got to go to basketball, bro, 381 00:19:43,920 --> 00:19:46,079 Like it can't just be Kevin RNT. It can't just 382 00:19:46,079 --> 00:19:48,240 be saying good backing down for thirty minutes, thirty minutes 383 00:19:48,240 --> 00:19:51,039 on the chalk clock, like Re Shepard got to play. 384 00:19:51,079 --> 00:19:51,960 You got him top five. 385 00:19:51,799 --> 00:19:54,759 Speaker 2: For a reason, like pretty much. I look at it 386 00:19:54,880 --> 00:19:56,720 like this, I don't care if he is forty one 387 00:19:57,839 --> 00:20:02,400 Bron one game that off being Broun, it's still living. Now, 388 00:20:02,640 --> 00:20:05,799 Bron gonna get you one in between games. 389 00:20:05,799 --> 00:20:06,720 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, now you. 390 00:20:06,680 --> 00:20:10,559 Speaker 2: Can probably get two because Broun himself gets you on 391 00:20:10,839 --> 00:20:14,920 and then just his playmaking plus some clutch Jean stuff 392 00:20:15,359 --> 00:20:18,200 Brown can get you two if if everybody's clicking one 393 00:20:18,240 --> 00:20:20,359 game and Rockets on that BS, which we've seen, that 394 00:20:20,480 --> 00:20:24,160 can be. So I think at max it goes six games. 395 00:20:24,240 --> 00:20:28,480 But let's just say Bron gass out or somebody roll 396 00:20:28,559 --> 00:20:31,480 their ankle or whatever on the Lakers. Yeah, I think 397 00:20:31,640 --> 00:20:35,039 Rockets do it five. But yeah, I think, I mean, 398 00:20:35,079 --> 00:20:38,960 whenever Bron and KD match up. You know, in theory, 399 00:20:39,559 --> 00:20:42,960 the series never go past five because he got okay 400 00:20:43,160 --> 00:20:46,599 out in five Warriors guys clean and found then or 401 00:20:46,599 --> 00:20:49,319 sweet the next time, even though Broun played the best 402 00:20:49,319 --> 00:20:51,319 game I ever seen in that game one. So but 403 00:20:51,440 --> 00:20:53,039 normally the series gonna go past five. 404 00:20:53,119 --> 00:20:55,400 Speaker 1: That's funny as hell. Actually, they'll go to the East 405 00:20:55,400 --> 00:21:01,359 real quick, Toronto Cleveland four or five matchup. You know, 406 00:21:01,599 --> 00:21:04,000 you know, you know, we riding first off were totally 407 00:21:04,000 --> 00:21:07,599 wrong about the Raptors. Apologize. We definitely apologize having through 408 00:21:07,599 --> 00:21:09,440 the season because did not expect this team to do 409 00:21:09,519 --> 00:21:11,920 what they did. Especially they playing is like small ball 410 00:21:12,039 --> 00:21:14,680 roll and and but but they're playing, they're playing well together, 411 00:21:14,720 --> 00:21:16,920 Like I love what they I love how they play 412 00:21:17,440 --> 00:21:21,440 uh quickly, Rgie, Barry ben ingn Scotti, all the role 413 00:21:21,519 --> 00:21:26,119 players that they have on the team as well. The 414 00:21:26,240 --> 00:21:28,839 spread is minus two and a half cast plus one 415 00:21:28,880 --> 00:21:32,200 o eight to to cover that well, Rotters is minus 416 00:21:32,240 --> 00:21:34,119 one thirty two. So they're saying they thinking this game 417 00:21:34,160 --> 00:21:38,839 can can go Uh, They're saying Raptors might can push 418 00:21:38,880 --> 00:21:46,119 it to seven. So I'm telling Cleveland, but I am 419 00:21:46,160 --> 00:21:49,279 a little worried and I and I mean what I 420 00:21:49,319 --> 00:21:53,400 mean by that is like we we me and you 421 00:21:53,480 --> 00:21:55,920 both know Hardened just talk about Yoka. 422 00:21:56,079 --> 00:21:56,160 Speaker 2: Right. 423 00:21:56,559 --> 00:21:58,799 Speaker 1: The reason why Harden and Jokis are two different people 424 00:21:59,480 --> 00:22:02,160 is although they both can carry a team to the 425 00:22:02,160 --> 00:22:06,559 front uh through the whole season, Harden can't carry it 426 00:22:06,599 --> 00:22:10,400 for a season plus postseason. Right. That's that's really the 427 00:22:10,640 --> 00:22:14,079 knock on Harder, I mean on him guy Spider who 428 00:22:14,359 --> 00:22:17,559 made the playoffs every single year. No conference finals appearance yet, 429 00:22:17,640 --> 00:22:19,880 And that's do with the team. But my thing is 430 00:22:19,960 --> 00:22:22,160 Jared Allen and Avan Moley. Bro, if they don't show 431 00:22:22,240 --> 00:22:27,640 up at all the playoffs, I like that would be 432 00:22:27,319 --> 00:22:29,920 that you got a man up at some point, Big 433 00:22:29,960 --> 00:22:32,039 fro and Evan Mobley come on, b y'all, y'all got y'all, 434 00:22:32,039 --> 00:22:34,400 have y'all the reason, y'all hold y'all holding the calves back. 435 00:22:34,880 --> 00:22:37,319 So I don't think Hardy going. I don't think Hardy 436 00:22:37,359 --> 00:22:41,519 gonna get you one, right, Spoty gonna get you one. 437 00:22:41,759 --> 00:22:43,319 So you only got two mens you up to? You 438 00:22:43,440 --> 00:22:46,720 up to already? So can you beat the raptors? You know? 439 00:22:46,799 --> 00:22:48,839 Two out of the next whatever games? You know? So 440 00:22:49,519 --> 00:22:52,279 out of five? So that's that's my thing there. So 441 00:22:52,519 --> 00:22:56,000 I'm taking the calves, but I am worried because if 442 00:22:56,039 --> 00:22:59,039 I want to take them to beat Pistons in the 443 00:22:59,079 --> 00:23:02,119 in the next round, I'm gonna need some. I'm gonna 444 00:23:02,119 --> 00:23:04,160 needed some. I need to see how Jay Ellen, Evmon 445 00:23:04,240 --> 00:23:06,079 we're gonna act the playoffs. 446 00:23:08,240 --> 00:23:12,240 Speaker 2: This matchup, even though it's first round, this feels like 447 00:23:12,440 --> 00:23:17,640 boxing where the styles make the fight. This is probably 448 00:23:17,640 --> 00:23:21,440 the worst draw the cass could have got because when 449 00:23:21,480 --> 00:23:25,039 you look at what the Raptors can do. On an 450 00:23:25,079 --> 00:23:30,640 offensive standpoint, who is who is guarding these people on 451 00:23:30,839 --> 00:23:34,000 team hard At I got shoes in the closet. He 452 00:23:34,720 --> 00:23:37,839 better than d Wade on which you Pat Bell. We 453 00:23:40,640 --> 00:23:42,720 run that argument to the end. He is better than 454 00:23:42,799 --> 00:23:47,039 d Wade. But Brandon Ingram, r J Barrett, Scottie Barnes, 455 00:23:48,119 --> 00:23:54,599 those are all long, lengthy wings and quickly and like 456 00:23:54,640 --> 00:23:57,680 I said, I rock with James O, rock with Spider Mitchell. 457 00:23:58,519 --> 00:24:02,240 But y'all are not gonna be locked down Garden Ingram, 458 00:24:02,319 --> 00:24:08,720 Barrett and Barns. Yeah, and then total and uh the 459 00:24:08,759 --> 00:24:10,559 other big dude with. 460 00:24:10,640 --> 00:24:13,920 Speaker 1: The uh you know talking about with the maid. 461 00:24:14,440 --> 00:24:17,240 Speaker 2: They're gonna give Mobley and Allen Fitt up front and. 462 00:24:17,680 --> 00:24:20,200 Speaker 1: You gotall with Murray Boughs. 463 00:24:20,079 --> 00:24:24,440 Speaker 2: From the rookie, so this this won't be a Kate 464 00:24:24,559 --> 00:24:29,680 Walk matchup. And uh, they still got guys like Grady 465 00:24:29,880 --> 00:24:34,400 and Walter and the Raptors. They got a nice little 466 00:24:34,440 --> 00:24:35,799 little rotation they can work with. 467 00:24:35,920 --> 00:24:41,279 Speaker 3: So I'm taking the Cows because who it is like 468 00:24:42,200 --> 00:24:46,880 from a coaching standpoint, from Spider Harden, Mobley Allen on 469 00:24:47,039 --> 00:24:49,200 taking them to win the series. 470 00:24:50,160 --> 00:24:53,319 Speaker 2: But if the six was to find a way to 471 00:24:53,319 --> 00:24:56,200 pull it off. It wins a privatly because the matchup 472 00:24:56,279 --> 00:24:56,839 this is tough. 473 00:24:57,000 --> 00:24:58,839 Speaker 1: Yeah, I've definitely taken that Raptors post two and a half. 474 00:24:58,880 --> 00:25:01,200 I think that's kind of I think it's pretty easy. 475 00:25:01,240 --> 00:25:02,880 Plus three and a half for show, they're definite not 476 00:25:02,920 --> 00:25:05,200 getting wiped down. But plus two and a half, I 477 00:25:05,240 --> 00:25:08,319 mean they can they can lose for it too. I 478 00:25:08,319 --> 00:25:10,160 don't I don't think. I don't think Boston, I don't. 479 00:25:10,200 --> 00:25:11,799 I don't think Calves getting them out of here for 480 00:25:11,960 --> 00:25:16,400 in in five like like you said. And on top 481 00:25:16,839 --> 00:25:18,839 on top of that, they are not afraid to play 482 00:25:19,319 --> 00:25:21,519 four wings in the guard. And guess what, I guess 483 00:25:21,519 --> 00:25:23,240 what I was gonna do, Evan Mobiley and Jay Allen. 484 00:25:23,319 --> 00:25:26,920 Somebody gonna call the court potentially because it ain't like 485 00:25:26,960 --> 00:25:30,519 Jay Allen gonna go down there and score thirty for 486 00:25:30,559 --> 00:25:32,599 the demand for the ball. So you know we'll see 487 00:25:32,640 --> 00:25:35,559 Evan Mobley and Jerry Allen are the reason Calves may 488 00:25:35,640 --> 00:25:38,440 go far or not in my opinion. So uh, that's 489 00:25:38,480 --> 00:25:41,279 that series there, all right. For shot, we had this 490 00:25:41,480 --> 00:25:45,160 argument way way way back, way way back in the 491 00:25:45,240 --> 00:25:48,039 day two thousand, I think like twenty nineteen to be exact, 492 00:25:48,519 --> 00:25:51,680 Atlanta versus Knicks. I was always team Knicks. You was 493 00:25:51,759 --> 00:25:54,759 team in Atlanta. They find themselves here again. I think 494 00:25:54,759 --> 00:25:57,240 we had, you know, ups and downs in this argument. 495 00:25:57,559 --> 00:26:00,799 Who the better franchised? Atlanta made a conference finals a 496 00:26:00,839 --> 00:26:03,559 couple of years ago, Knicks made it last year, nobody 497 00:26:03,599 --> 00:26:06,240 got to the finals. Yet they're playing the three sixth 498 00:26:06,440 --> 00:26:08,799 line up here. Who you got who you got in 499 00:26:08,880 --> 00:26:09,359 this batchup? 500 00:26:11,319 --> 00:26:14,759 Speaker 2: I'm taking the Hawks on round with the Hawks, man, 501 00:26:15,880 --> 00:26:19,079 I just think that the next thing last year was 502 00:26:19,160 --> 00:26:22,759 their chance and it didn't come through. So, you know, 503 00:26:22,880 --> 00:26:26,680 moving on from TIBs cat solid year but not the 504 00:26:26,799 --> 00:26:30,119 typical year. And then I think they're reaching that point 505 00:26:30,160 --> 00:26:36,279 where Pistons have elevated. Boston got Tatum back, They're not 506 00:26:36,359 --> 00:26:38,400 going anywhere for probably the next four or five years 507 00:26:38,440 --> 00:26:41,960 because him and Brown are still young. So you know, 508 00:26:42,000 --> 00:26:45,640 we think next year you get Hally back, Pacers should 509 00:26:45,640 --> 00:26:48,799 be back where they were still waiting to see on 510 00:26:48,839 --> 00:26:51,599 the whole Orlando thing and stuff like that. But I'm 511 00:26:51,640 --> 00:26:55,400 taking the Hawks. I think Jalen Brunson probably makes all 512 00:26:55,440 --> 00:26:59,279 the NBA second team, but from an all around standpoint, 513 00:26:59,359 --> 00:27:03,559 I think Lynn Johnson it's the best player in this series, 514 00:27:03,720 --> 00:27:08,119 So okay, between him, you got a venu. CJ. Mccolgum. 515 00:27:08,599 --> 00:27:11,200 We just talked about the most improved player who I'll 516 00:27:11,279 --> 00:27:15,400 vote for, Alexander Walker. I think the Hawks can do it. Man. 517 00:27:15,440 --> 00:27:18,599 It'll probably go to full seven. And I think that's 518 00:27:18,640 --> 00:27:22,319 what makes it so little special because the Hawks can 519 00:27:22,359 --> 00:27:25,839 go to the Knicks, go to the Garden, win in seven, 520 00:27:26,319 --> 00:27:29,079 and you've gotta break the team up because you need 521 00:27:29,160 --> 00:27:33,000 all season storylines. So they losing the first round. Are 522 00:27:33,039 --> 00:27:34,799 you just brought in Mike Brown? Do you move on 523 00:27:34,839 --> 00:27:37,160 from Mike Brown? Do you trade Candon Bridges? Do you 524 00:27:37,279 --> 00:27:41,559 try to get jonnyt You need summer storylines, So I 525 00:27:41,599 --> 00:27:43,839 gotta go at the Hawks. I think from a team standpoint, 526 00:27:43,839 --> 00:27:47,079 coaching standpoint, I like Mike Brown, but I think Quinn 527 00:27:47,079 --> 00:27:49,599 Snyder can match up pretty well with them. And I said, 528 00:27:49,640 --> 00:27:51,480 I think Jason and Johnson best playing in the series. 529 00:27:51,599 --> 00:27:53,839 So I'm going with the Awks, man. But it's gonna 530 00:27:53,839 --> 00:27:54,759 be in seven though. 531 00:27:54,720 --> 00:27:57,079 Speaker 1: So all right, so it's gonna be a separate shot. 532 00:27:57,079 --> 00:27:59,559 You got to a plus one and a half? Is 533 00:27:59,839 --> 00:28:02,279 the is the spread plus and minus for Nicks minus 534 00:28:02,279 --> 00:28:04,799 one ten? That's that's that's damned even money right there 535 00:28:05,000 --> 00:28:08,119 to to to lose four to three. So I mean 536 00:28:08,599 --> 00:28:11,839 Vegas says it too. So I'm with you in terms 537 00:28:11,839 --> 00:28:15,519 of seven, but I'm gonna go New York. Now. I 538 00:28:15,559 --> 00:28:19,400 do think the Hawks are the Hawks. The Hawks are 539 00:28:19,400 --> 00:28:22,200 a matchup problem for a lot of people. And the 540 00:28:22,319 --> 00:28:27,680 problem is your team is built to what stop wings? Well, 541 00:28:27,960 --> 00:28:29,880 the Klex and the walking C and C be color 542 00:28:30,039 --> 00:28:34,559 are guards and mckam bridges got the guard one of them. 543 00:28:34,799 --> 00:28:35,519 And what are you gonna do? 544 00:28:35,559 --> 00:28:36,000 Speaker 2: O G?

It Jordan, Clarkson Juda, alvarado are you 574 00:29:55,759 --> 00:29:57,319 going to trust McCall bridges to bring the ball to 575 00:29:57,359 --> 00:30:00,000 the court OR? O G i understand like you because 576 00:30:00,200 --> 00:30:02,160 you can't hit. That you can't Let thatson nails Gardest 577 00:30:02,200 --> 00:30:05,720 man ninety four, feet you're gonna be. Tired and like you, 578 00:30:05,720 --> 00:30:07,960 said the longer the longer it, goes the, tie you're 579 00:30:07,960 --> 00:30:10,960 gonna Be And i'm with you on that on that, 580 00:30:11,000 --> 00:30:12,559 point that's gonna be. Hard so we're gonna see what 581 00:30:12,640 --> 00:30:15,200 kind offense they they. Provide BUT i, mean if you're 582 00:30:15,200 --> 00:30:18,319 gonna PAY O g forty five plus million or fifty 583 00:30:18,319 --> 00:30:21,240 million Some i'm like some crazy number and tray five 584 00:30:21,279 --> 00:30:24,440 first roup picks For Keeley, bridges they, better they better 585 00:30:24,440 --> 00:30:28,119 act like, it they better ad like the value that 586 00:30:28,160 --> 00:30:30,480 we put into. Them and then a, cat LIKE i, 587 00:30:30,519 --> 00:30:32,319 SAID i, think AND i think cat just have to 588 00:30:32,920 --> 00:30:35,960 he has to be a monster in the. Glass he's 589 00:30:35,960 --> 00:30:38,039 the second lead the rebound in THE nba Behind yo 590 00:30:38,160 --> 00:30:40,519 KICH i THINK i think he, said, YEAH i think you. 591 00:30:40,599 --> 00:30:44,160 Second you have to be you have to up that 592 00:30:44,160 --> 00:30:46,039 to twelve thirteen because The Kwong wu was on the 593 00:30:46,079 --> 00:30:48,880 size And Jalen, johnson who gets a lot of, rebounds 594 00:30:49,039 --> 00:30:51,799 is also six eight sixty, nine so. 595 00:30:53,160 --> 00:30:54,039 Speaker 2: He would be a rangy. 596 00:30:54,119 --> 00:30:57,839 Speaker 1: Dude but you're seven. Foot i'm. Sorry this is why 597 00:30:58,279 --> 00:31:02,400 we can. Argue and, okay BEFORE i say it's not, 598 00:31:02,559 --> 00:31:05,279 crazy but this is why we can, argue if you 599 00:31:05,359 --> 00:31:07,880 ever reached your full, potential all you better And dirting 600 00:31:07,880 --> 00:31:10,319 no whiskey because you can actually rebound for being shooting. 601 00:31:10,359 --> 00:31:13,039 Big but if you're never going to reach that potential 602 00:31:13,400 --> 00:31:15,880 leading team to a FINALS Hepa Winter, championship then you 603 00:31:15,920 --> 00:31:18,160 never can rereach. That but you have to go get 604 00:31:18,200 --> 00:31:21,640 twelve thirteen rebounds and make your threes score twenty five 605 00:31:21,680 --> 00:31:24,000 points a game to Help brunting out because if you're 606 00:31:24,000 --> 00:31:28,279 gonna Have Dason dam's on, them well good. 607 00:31:28,359 --> 00:31:35,200 Speaker 2: Luck like the parts don't fit exactly the. Same but to, 608 00:31:35,279 --> 00:31:37,440 me this is the worst. MATCHUP i, mean and we'll 609 00:31:37,440 --> 00:31:39,759 see If i'm wrong or, now but to, me this 610 00:31:40,000 --> 00:31:42,279 matchup was the worst theme The knicks could have got 611 00:31:42,279 --> 00:31:46,240 first round because it's reminiscent, of to, me The. Pacers 612 00:31:46,680 --> 00:31:51,119 because The pacers Had, halliburton they Had, mathering they had, 613 00:31:51,240 --> 00:31:55,319 McConnell Nie, smith they had a lot of guards that 614 00:31:55,359 --> 00:31:58,279 you just get out. There everybody can shoot the. Ball 615 00:31:58,640 --> 00:32:00,799 you're trying to get his lound on one person like. 616 00:32:00,839 --> 00:32:04,440 This so now you Got, walker you GOT. Cj you, 617 00:32:04,480 --> 00:32:08,000 Know kaminga don't get off one. Game he's gonna get 618 00:32:08,000 --> 00:32:10,920 off one. Game, Yeah SO i, MEAN i think just 619 00:32:11,079 --> 00:32:16,440 the parts don't fit exactly the. Same But Walker damnas's, 620 00:32:16,519 --> 00:32:21,880 defense WHAT cj can do on all these? People, MAN 621 00:32:21,960 --> 00:32:24,200 i just think it's gonna Be it's gonna be a 622 00:32:24,200 --> 00:32:27,200 tough matchup for. Them the parts sont exactly the, same 623 00:32:27,559 --> 00:32:30,759 but The hawks have some of the same elements that 624 00:32:30,759 --> 00:32:31,839 The pacers had from last. 625 00:32:31,920 --> 00:32:35,599 Speaker 1: Year and this is why The hawks screwed The knicks for, 626 00:32:35,680 --> 00:32:39,359 real for, real BECAUSE i just mentioned The knicks are 627 00:32:39,599 --> 00:32:41,559 meant to stop your. Wings guess who they have the? 628 00:32:41,559 --> 00:32:45,720 Wings The, raptors who are supposed to be the. Matchup 629 00:32:46,079 --> 00:32:47,759 they would He nick would white down the. Rathers i'm 630 00:32:47,759 --> 00:32:49,400 telling you right now that would have. Been that would 631 00:32:49,400 --> 00:32:52,559 have been for one because the reason why you brought 632 00:32:52,559 --> 00:32:55,519 o g and mckel in. Here but you make it. 633 00:32:55,519 --> 00:32:57,680 Good you're making good, points but saying the. Argument can 634 00:32:57,720 --> 00:33:00,160 we been arguing for this for seven. Years i'm don't 635 00:33:00,160 --> 00:33:02,839 have to Go knicks, Regardless i'm gonna have to take 636 00:33:02,880 --> 00:33:05,880 them because because because, uh you, know this is what this, 637 00:33:05,920 --> 00:33:07,160 is what this what makes this is what we even. 638 00:33:07,200 --> 00:33:09,119 START i think the reason why we started this because 639 00:33:09,119 --> 00:33:11,000 they made the playoffs and play against each other or, 640 00:33:11,000 --> 00:33:11,920 something is not the. 641 00:33:11,960 --> 00:33:18,319 Speaker 3: Reason, yeah they made The halls went to The East finals. 642 00:33:17,839 --> 00:33:20,240 Speaker 2: And beating The, knicks BUT i think THEY i think 643 00:33:20,279 --> 00:33:22,000 they played each other at some. Point so that was 644 00:33:22,039 --> 00:33:23,680 kind of like one of the starting points of the. 645 00:33:23,680 --> 00:33:24,319 Debate that was. 646 00:33:24,319 --> 00:33:27,839 Speaker 1: Funny so all, right so The rishi Versus kiv all 647 00:33:28,039 --> 00:33:30,759 all going on On, atlanta On lant And. Knicks SO 648 00:33:31,039 --> 00:33:33,640 i was looking at The vegas odds AND i found this. 649 00:33:33,759 --> 00:33:37,279 Funny so we haven't talked About, pistons haven't talked About, 650 00:33:37,279 --> 00:33:41,279 spurs haven't talked About, okay see In, Boston So boston 651 00:33:41,319 --> 00:33:43,319 is favorite to win The east as the two.

Differ 725 00:37:40,039 --> 00:37:42,280 it's a different beast and that they they're not prepared 726 00:37:42,360 --> 00:37:45,519 for just just just because of lack of, experience you. 727 00:37:45,559 --> 00:37:50,400 Speaker 2: Know, yeah man to have the five year run with 728 00:37:50,559 --> 00:37:53,000 having them From, shade the sixth year run we had 729 00:37:53,039 --> 00:37:55,679 him From Yo, kicch that would be the best matchup 730 00:37:55,719 --> 00:38:00,239 probably from an experience based. Standpoint. Uh and then of, 731 00:38:00,280 --> 00:38:01,880 course like you, said will win be the team around 732 00:38:01,920 --> 00:38:04,159 them the.
