1
00:00:15,240 --> 00:00:18,160
Speaker 1: What is up, fellow Siko's I am Dan Valley coming

2
00:00:18,160 --> 00:00:20,559
at you with my certified fantabulous co host, mister Grant.

3
00:00:20,679 --> 00:00:23,480
Used for a very special it's a mini episode relative

4
00:00:23,519 --> 00:00:25,960
to how long our normal ones are. But we're gonna

5
00:00:26,039 --> 00:00:31,000
draft NBA players to participate in other summer Olympic sports,

6
00:00:31,320 --> 00:00:33,679
and the rules I've not informed. I don't even informed Grant,

7
00:00:33,719 --> 00:00:35,840
the sports we're gonna use. I don't have a big

8
00:00:35,880 --> 00:00:39,320
board of stars, to be clear, but I do know

9
00:00:39,359 --> 00:00:41,719
the sports we're gonna use. We can't use the same

10
00:00:41,719 --> 00:00:43,840
player twice, and so once he's off the board for

11
00:00:43,880 --> 00:00:47,320
a certain sport, we cannot use him again. And the

12
00:00:47,399 --> 00:00:50,439
g to game it here as we alternate, it's gonna

13
00:00:50,479 --> 00:00:51,840
be well like, we need to pick the sports that

14
00:00:51,880 --> 00:00:53,320
we know is gonna make sense, so we could take

15
00:00:53,359 --> 00:00:56,359
so and so off the board. Grant, one, how are you?

16
00:00:56,399 --> 00:00:59,600
But two, how are you feeling about this very topical exercise.

17
00:00:59,600 --> 00:01:04,200
Speaker 2: I'm gonna combine my answers. I'm very excited, mainly because

18
00:01:04,439 --> 00:01:07,760
coming into an exercise cold means there should be no expectations,

19
00:01:07,760 --> 00:01:10,640
and I thrive in environments where I'm not expected to

20
00:01:10,719 --> 00:01:15,159
do well. So I'm I'm excited and I am bummed

21
00:01:15,159 --> 00:01:18,239
that I can't just choose Anthony Edwards, self proclaimed greatest

22
00:01:18,280 --> 00:01:20,640
athlete on planet Earth for all of these sports. But

23
00:01:20,719 --> 00:01:23,079
we'll just have to, you know, get more creative.

24
00:01:22,959 --> 00:01:25,040
Speaker 1: And the other thing. As long as you agree, I'm

25
00:01:25,040 --> 00:01:27,799
not limiting this because this is a situation where we

26
00:01:27,879 --> 00:01:30,159
use we and we talk about tam USA like international

27
00:01:30,200 --> 00:01:32,319
players are absolutely allowed to be selected. We're talking about

28
00:01:32,319 --> 00:01:33,799
the NBA at large.

29
00:01:33,920 --> 00:01:37,319
Speaker 2: So we're forming an Olympic super team. Then like it's

30
00:01:37,359 --> 00:01:41,959
it's international different events. Yeah, okay, international committee. So it's

31
00:01:42,040 --> 00:01:46,000
just we're fighting, we're playing, we're competing against the aliens

32
00:01:46,200 --> 00:01:48,480
in the Olympics, and we can choose anyone from Earth

33
00:01:48,599 --> 00:01:49,519
that plays in the NBA.

34
00:01:50,280 --> 00:01:51,120
Speaker 1: We can't choose Wemby.

35
00:01:51,159 --> 00:01:54,640
Speaker 2: That sucks. That's really gonna hurt us. Uh.

36
00:01:54,680 --> 00:01:56,560
Speaker 1: Are you ready for the reveal, mister Grant Hughes.

37
00:01:56,640 --> 00:01:57,439
Speaker 2: Yes, I'm excited.

38
00:01:57,640 --> 00:02:00,319
Speaker 1: Okay, Grant, since you had no idea what's sports we

39
00:02:00,319 --> 00:02:02,560
were selecting going in, I will let you be the

40
00:02:02,640 --> 00:02:05,599
one to pick and anyone who's watching because I don't

41
00:02:05,640 --> 00:02:07,920
have a player pool set up. Again, Grant and I

42
00:02:07,959 --> 00:02:10,439
we haven't talked about this beforehand. It will take a

43
00:02:10,439 --> 00:02:12,719
little bit of time for me to put someone's face

44
00:02:12,759 --> 00:02:14,520
up on the screen, so just bear with that.

45
00:02:14,680 --> 00:02:18,080
Speaker 2: Okay, So I'm gonna choose the one that really jumps

46
00:02:18,080 --> 00:02:22,759
out at me here is fencing, partly because that picture

47
00:02:22,800 --> 00:02:28,280
looks cool. And what are we gonna do for fencing

48
00:02:28,759 --> 00:02:30,680
or do we get to like put our heads together

49
00:02:30,800 --> 00:02:32,199
or do I just have to pick somebody?

50
00:02:32,319 --> 00:02:34,360
Speaker 1: I think we can talk about it like a So

51
00:02:35,439 --> 00:02:36,039
I hate.

52
00:02:35,800 --> 00:02:38,599
Speaker 2: To use him now without really thinking about what he

53
00:02:38,719 --> 00:02:40,919
might be able to do in other sports. But why

54
00:02:41,039 --> 00:02:43,080
isn't this Wemby because of the reach?

55
00:02:44,520 --> 00:02:47,759
Speaker 1: Well, but also it's just like it doesn't work the same. Okay,

56
00:02:47,759 --> 00:02:49,439
he has that reach, but just think about how long

57
00:02:49,439 --> 00:02:51,520
it's gonna take him to do the sword movements to

58
00:02:51,639 --> 00:02:52,360
like get well.

59
00:02:52,599 --> 00:02:54,919
Speaker 2: But it's like the cartoon where like the big kids

60
00:02:54,919 --> 00:02:56,840
fighting the little kid and he like puts his hand

61
00:02:56,879 --> 00:02:59,479
on the forehead of the other the other character, and

62
00:02:59,520 --> 00:03:01,800
he's like he can't reach him, like he's just spinning

63
00:03:01,800 --> 00:03:04,879
his legs this. Yeah, I'm not describing the cartoon very well.

64
00:03:04,879 --> 00:03:06,560
It's like a Tom and Jerry thing. Maybe I don't know,

65
00:03:07,000 --> 00:03:11,680
but like if Wemby can reach you with his arm extended.

66
00:03:12,120 --> 00:03:16,120
Unless you're also Wemby, he can't reach him. You can't

67
00:03:16,120 --> 00:03:18,439
reach him, right, Like, isn't it just he can get

68
00:03:18,520 --> 00:03:21,560
you before he gets anywhere near being stabbed? Right?

69
00:03:21,960 --> 00:03:25,360
Speaker 1: I'm actually I'm dying it. I'm not sure also Wemby,

70
00:03:25,840 --> 00:03:28,280
I'll allow it because the sport that I thought like

71
00:03:28,520 --> 00:03:31,120
just that, I think he would probably be best suited for.

72
00:03:31,240 --> 00:03:33,639
I thought volleyball at first, but I feel like it

73
00:03:33,639 --> 00:03:37,560
would be fairly easy to find, right, someone else that

74
00:03:37,639 --> 00:03:39,159
makes sense for volleyball.

75
00:03:39,240 --> 00:03:42,159
Speaker 2: So we are burning Wemby early. But but yeah, I

76
00:03:42,240 --> 00:03:45,080
think that's right about volleyball. We could pick there's fifty

77
00:03:45,080 --> 00:03:47,439
guys that could be world class volleyball players in the NBA.

78
00:03:47,560 --> 00:03:49,400
Maybe that's actually conservative.

79
00:03:50,080 --> 00:03:53,639
Speaker 1: So I'm going to pick which one should I go with? Here,

80
00:03:54,080 --> 00:03:57,400
I'm gonna go with water Polo, And I actually think

81
00:03:57,599 --> 00:04:00,800
this one is an easy pick. It has to be

82
00:04:00,879 --> 00:04:03,840
Nicola Jokic, right like he just he throws water Polo

83
00:04:03,960 --> 00:04:07,360
passes already. And I will say people that are looking

84
00:04:07,400 --> 00:04:09,319
at screens and so they know which sports are coming

85
00:04:09,360 --> 00:04:10,879
or maybe looked at the time stance that we are

86
00:04:10,960 --> 00:04:13,800
kind enough to include with every episode. Hey, subscribe. We

87
00:04:13,840 --> 00:04:18,199
care about you. H he can't like he's into horses,

88
00:04:18,199 --> 00:04:20,000
but he shouldn't be the one riding the horses.

89
00:04:20,959 --> 00:04:24,720
Speaker 2: Well, that's I think. I agree. I'm glad we found

90
00:04:24,759 --> 00:04:28,560
something for Jokic, the whole the dressage thing. I did

91
00:04:28,680 --> 00:04:30,920
have a conversation with my wife the other day in

92
00:04:30,959 --> 00:04:34,240
which she posited, like, anyone could be an Olympian in

93
00:04:34,279 --> 00:04:36,639
that event because the horse is doing everything, and I

94
00:04:36,720 --> 00:04:38,519
was like, that kind of makes a lot of sense.

95
00:04:38,879 --> 00:04:41,319
You just have in theory of this horse. You know,

96
00:04:41,360 --> 00:04:44,199
maybe you train it, which would put Jokic in the

97
00:04:44,279 --> 00:04:47,439
running for it, but like you really are just kind

98
00:04:47,480 --> 00:04:49,399
of sitting on it right and like telling it what

99
00:04:49,560 --> 00:04:51,879
to do. If you could just learn the little subtle

100
00:04:52,000 --> 00:04:54,120
like rain commands and what to say to it, Like

101
00:04:54,240 --> 00:04:56,600
the horse is the Olympian, not you, not the guy

102
00:04:56,920 --> 00:04:59,759
or the girl on the horse. So I think it's

103
00:04:59,759 --> 00:05:03,079
SMA to use yogicchen water Polo, and we don't need him.

104
00:05:03,240 --> 00:05:06,720
We don't need anybody with athletic talent. Sorry, I would

105
00:05:06,759 --> 00:05:08,720
love it. By the way, if any of our audience

106
00:05:08,800 --> 00:05:11,079
is like a dressage fanatic and is going to tell

107
00:05:11,160 --> 00:05:13,040
me how wrong I am, because I probably am, but

108
00:05:13,680 --> 00:05:16,160
we don't need him for any horse sports, even though

109
00:05:16,160 --> 00:05:18,240
he should be the guy for that. I love it.

110
00:05:18,920 --> 00:05:22,319
Uh ooh, I don't know. Do we stay in the pool?

111
00:05:22,360 --> 00:05:23,920
I don't know what the swimming thing is.

112
00:05:25,240 --> 00:05:27,079
Speaker 1: So yeah, and by the way I did this, generally

113
00:05:27,199 --> 00:05:30,120
there's some specification on So the running one is the

114
00:05:30,120 --> 00:05:32,920
one hundred meter? Okay, consider that, but that's it. Like

115
00:05:33,160 --> 00:05:35,639
swimming is just swimming. It's not oh it's the eight

116
00:05:35,720 --> 00:05:38,240
hundred millimeter freestyle, or it's the team relay, you could

117
00:05:38,480 --> 00:05:41,360
you it's it's general. So you need someone who's maybe versatile.

118
00:05:41,720 --> 00:05:44,639
Speaker 2: Yeah, I rack, I don't have a good one for swimming.

119
00:05:44,720 --> 00:05:47,920
Let's do the one hundred meters just because there's a

120
00:05:48,000 --> 00:05:50,720
relatively short list of guys you know that you think

121
00:05:50,759 --> 00:05:52,959
of as who's the fastest guy in the league end

122
00:05:53,000 --> 00:05:57,360
to end? Isn't this just Tyrese MAXI should should that

123
00:05:57,399 --> 00:05:58,439
be our pick for the hundred?

124
00:05:59,240 --> 00:06:01,480
Speaker 1: I was thinking, I was thinking, Daron Fox, you think

125
00:06:01,480 --> 00:06:02,360
it's tyre'se Maxie.

126
00:06:02,399 --> 00:06:04,720
Speaker 2: I think Maxie's faster. Max is quite a bit younger.

127
00:06:04,759 --> 00:06:07,279
At this point Fox maybe it was like for a minute,

128
00:06:07,279 --> 00:06:11,879
there was like Fox Westbrook, Uh, we're taking guys as

129
00:06:11,920 --> 00:06:13,360
they are now, He's got.

130
00:06:13,240 --> 00:06:15,839
Speaker 1: That muscular burst to him, like you see some of

131
00:06:15,839 --> 00:06:19,000
these runners are just like absolutely chiseled, and I feel

132
00:06:19,000 --> 00:06:20,439
like Daron Fox has more of that.

133
00:06:21,319 --> 00:06:25,519
Speaker 2: I Ah, who else is even in the conversation besides

134
00:06:25,560 --> 00:06:29,279
Maxie and maybe Jaw. I feel like jaw we could

135
00:06:29,399 --> 00:06:31,160
use for Oh, I already know what I want to

136
00:06:31,240 --> 00:06:31,720
use Jaw for.

137
00:06:32,040 --> 00:06:33,720
Speaker 1: I already knew what I want to use jaw War too.

138
00:06:33,759 --> 00:06:37,199
Speaker 2: Oh. Really, I wonder if it's the same one I met.

139
00:06:37,199 --> 00:06:39,560
Speaker 1: Like, Well, I was gonna say, like, we can't use

140
00:06:39,600 --> 00:06:42,759
prime Russell Westbrook, Doninan Mitchell. We just did the fastest

141
00:06:43,079 --> 00:06:48,199
like three quarter court times that he was surprisingly Uh,

142
00:06:48,399 --> 00:06:50,519
I'm fine with tyre'se Maxy. I thought we were gonna

143
00:06:50,519 --> 00:06:53,040
be in lockstep with darn Fox, So I get where

144
00:06:53,079 --> 00:06:55,519
you're coming from with Maxie. I probably would pick Fox,

145
00:06:55,560 --> 00:06:57,959
but if you think we'll want to put him somewhere else.

146
00:06:57,879 --> 00:07:00,079
Speaker 2: So the question is, can we use Maxie for anything

147
00:07:00,079 --> 00:07:01,240
else that we really need?

148
00:07:01,519 --> 00:07:04,040
Speaker 1: Do we need to? Well, if you think Tyre's Maxie

149
00:07:04,079 --> 00:07:05,959
is the better fit, you should just use him here

150
00:07:05,959 --> 00:07:08,680
because I don't like looking at this again, We've not

151
00:07:08,720 --> 00:07:10,120
given a thought that was the whole point. I don't

152
00:07:10,160 --> 00:07:13,959
really have Tyree's Maxie is like an option anywhere else I.

153
00:07:13,920 --> 00:07:15,879
Speaker 2: Would then I would like to use Maxie, and I

154
00:07:15,959 --> 00:07:18,800
promise I will defer to you on another one if

155
00:07:18,800 --> 00:07:21,680
we have a disagreement. So Maxi's in the hundred.

156
00:07:21,839 --> 00:07:23,439
Speaker 1: So he's in the hundred. I don't know how I

157
00:07:23,480 --> 00:07:25,079
feel about that. I'm not gonna lie. I feel like

158
00:07:25,079 --> 00:07:25,800
he's so fast.

159
00:07:25,839 --> 00:07:28,240
Speaker 2: What's what? What? What's what's not to feel good about?

160
00:07:28,920 --> 00:07:31,079
Speaker 1: I guess I just like, doesn't it feel like dearon

161
00:07:31,120 --> 00:07:33,399
Fox has the longer straw, Like he just feels like

162
00:07:33,480 --> 00:07:34,600
more of the whole package.

163
00:07:34,720 --> 00:07:38,319
Speaker 2: When maybe Fox is like a two hundred guy or

164
00:07:38,360 --> 00:07:39,480
a four hundred.

165
00:07:40,040 --> 00:07:43,720
Speaker 1: You're building a team relay team, it'd be Fox, it'd

166
00:07:43,759 --> 00:07:46,519
be Maxie. We need four people, I.

167
00:07:46,519 --> 00:07:51,800
Speaker 2: Mean, oh man, who else is? I'm sure there's people

168
00:07:51,839 --> 00:07:53,839
shouting at us right now, like, how are you forgetting?

169
00:07:53,879 --> 00:07:54,720
How fast this guy?

170
00:07:54,959 --> 00:07:57,079
Speaker 1: Do we include jaw in there? Donovan Mitchell?

171
00:07:57,879 --> 00:08:03,160
Speaker 2: Mitchell's pretty fast? Well, what about who scoots trans? I

172
00:08:03,160 --> 00:08:06,079
mean freaking Lebron. If we're just talking straight line speed,

173
00:08:06,120 --> 00:08:09,360
is he still in this conversation? Use Lebron for something else? Though,

174
00:08:10,680 --> 00:08:12,759
all right, uh, you your turn.

175
00:08:13,160 --> 00:08:15,879
Speaker 1: So I'm gonna go. We didn't pick a fourth, but

176
00:08:16,319 --> 00:08:21,439
we have Scoot, Maxie Fox and whoever. It's fine, man,

177
00:08:21,480 --> 00:08:24,040
what do I want to go with here? Do I

178
00:08:24,079 --> 00:08:25,160
want to go with power walking?

179
00:08:26,560 --> 00:08:26,639
Speaker 2: No?

180
00:08:26,800 --> 00:08:30,279
Speaker 1: You know what, I'm gonna go with swimming, And I'm

181
00:08:30,319 --> 00:08:33,639
going to pick and let's see if you agree Anthony Edwards,

182
00:08:33,679 --> 00:08:37,840
because he was already talking shit about swimming, saying that

183
00:08:37,840 --> 00:08:39,279
he's probably the best swim in the league. He's like,

184
00:08:39,559 --> 00:08:42,320
these guys don't know how to swim, and so like,

185
00:08:42,360 --> 00:08:44,559
who's my competition? He said something about maybe Drew Hollidays

186
00:08:44,559 --> 00:08:47,440
his competition for it. So I think he's been confident

187
00:08:47,480 --> 00:08:50,600
about everything, including what he could do in table tennis.

188
00:08:50,840 --> 00:08:53,320
But I think he was so confident with what he

189
00:08:53,360 --> 00:08:56,200
was doing with swimming that feels maybe he's a little

190
00:08:56,200 --> 00:09:00,320
bit too like I don't want to say muscular, becausewimmers

191
00:09:00,320 --> 00:09:02,639
are in fantastic shape, Like is he a little is

192
00:09:02,639 --> 00:09:05,080
there an element of like too much of his compacted

193
00:09:05,519 --> 00:09:08,120
muscle is like together rather than like he's long, So

194
00:09:08,159 --> 00:09:10,120
maybe he would need to train differently. But I think

195
00:09:10,559 --> 00:09:12,240
I think he's the one for me with swimming.

196
00:09:12,919 --> 00:09:15,759
Speaker 2: My only I'm with it. My only concern is we're

197
00:09:15,759 --> 00:09:19,799
burning like someone that could probably work in almost any

198
00:09:19,840 --> 00:09:20,600
other sport.

199
00:09:21,240 --> 00:09:24,679
Speaker 1: But aren't the other sports a little bit easier to like,

200
00:09:25,360 --> 00:09:28,639
don't require as much athletics. I mean gymnastics, That's the.

201
00:09:28,639 --> 00:09:31,399
Speaker 2: Thing I was just gonna say, So let's hype let's okay,

202
00:09:31,480 --> 00:09:34,840
Well we'll use Edwards as in this in swimming, mostly

203
00:09:34,799 --> 00:09:39,120
because I just he's he's got the confidence, Like confidence

204
00:09:39,159 --> 00:09:41,279
goes a long way, So maybe maybe that's the way

205
00:09:41,320 --> 00:09:44,639
to do it. Uh, let's go to gymnastics though then,

206
00:09:45,320 --> 00:09:49,840
and so we're gonna need someone probably you gotta be small,

207
00:09:50,039 --> 00:09:52,559
you gotta be compact, and you have to be like

208
00:09:52,600 --> 00:09:56,360
a nuclear athlete. Where is this where you're gonna put jaw?

209
00:09:56,720 --> 00:09:58,240
Speaker 1: Yeah, this was the one that I was like, this

210
00:09:58,320 --> 00:10:00,960
makes this feels like John Moran's event. I don't know

211
00:10:00,960 --> 00:10:03,879
if he's muscular enough. I mean, you look at these gymnasts,

212
00:10:03,879 --> 00:10:06,399
you look at some old biles, like it does feel

213
00:10:06,399 --> 00:10:09,639
like you need more of just the raw explosion. But

214
00:10:09,799 --> 00:10:13,320
like I'm like strength explosion, where's jaws? Just but you

215
00:10:13,440 --> 00:10:16,159
just look at his explosion in general, this feels you

216
00:10:16,240 --> 00:10:18,120
maybe would like if he was a little bit because

217
00:10:18,120 --> 00:10:20,159
it feels like he would be more susceptible to injury

218
00:10:20,159 --> 00:10:24,039
because of his lankiness or like slender frame. But I

219
00:10:24,039 --> 00:10:26,159
mean like he would he might hit the ceiling when he's.

220
00:10:26,080 --> 00:10:29,279
Speaker 2: Like, yeah, I love the idea of a jaw floor exercise.

221
00:10:29,320 --> 00:10:32,000
I'm concerned about some of the more strength based events,

222
00:10:32,039 --> 00:10:33,840
like how's he on the rings? You know, how's he

223
00:10:33,960 --> 00:10:37,000
on the uneven bars? Like that kind of stuff. The

224
00:10:37,039 --> 00:10:39,559
balance beam, balance beam. I think he'd be pretty good

225
00:10:39,559 --> 00:10:42,679
on the balance beam. Okay, all right, so yeah, okay,

226
00:10:42,759 --> 00:10:44,559
I was gonna use I think that's the right call

227
00:10:44,679 --> 00:10:47,120
for gymnastics. I was going to use him for team handball,

228
00:10:47,200 --> 00:10:49,440
just because the picture is someone like soaring through the

229
00:10:49,480 --> 00:10:52,320
air and like making up his mind later, which I

230
00:10:52,360 --> 00:10:54,240
can imagine joh doing. But we can get a lot

231
00:10:54,240 --> 00:10:55,919
of NBA guys for team handball.

232
00:10:55,600 --> 00:10:57,360
Speaker 1: Now that you described it, I think one in particular

233
00:10:57,399 --> 00:11:00,759
makes sense. Let's go to I know nothing about shot put,

234
00:11:01,039 --> 00:11:03,559
but I do know that a lot of these guys

235
00:11:04,039 --> 00:11:06,799
look like an out of shape Zion Williamson, and so

236
00:11:07,080 --> 00:11:11,399
imagine what actual Zion Williamson could do. I think he's

237
00:11:11,440 --> 00:11:15,320
the pick for shot put. Is that that like, would

238
00:11:15,360 --> 00:11:16,080
you agree or no?

239
00:11:16,639 --> 00:11:19,200
Speaker 2: The only so I was just gonna say Steven Adams

240
00:11:19,240 --> 00:11:25,000
because it involves strength. I think Zion. What just just

241
00:11:25,039 --> 00:11:27,559
to put it out there, do what do we think

242
00:11:27,600 --> 00:11:29,240
of Zion and rugby?

243
00:11:29,399 --> 00:11:31,879
Speaker 1: Like, are you about Stephen Adams for rugby?

244
00:11:32,000 --> 00:11:33,919
Speaker 2: Okay, well that makes more sense because he's from New

245
00:11:33,960 --> 00:11:36,159
Zealand and they really like their rugg Okay, let that works.

246
00:11:36,200 --> 00:11:38,799
That works. Uh so let's go yeah, perfect two for one.

247
00:11:38,799 --> 00:11:41,600
Speaker 1: Would you have put? Like did you even consider Zion

248
00:11:41,639 --> 00:11:43,200
before you went to Steven Adams for this though? When

249
00:11:43,200 --> 00:11:43,960
you were looking at.

250
00:11:43,799 --> 00:11:46,320
Speaker 2: It, I just the first thing when you said Zion,

251
00:11:46,360 --> 00:11:48,039
I was like, oh, yeah, right of course, But but

252
00:11:48,120 --> 00:11:50,120
I I had I had Steven Adams first in my

253
00:11:50,159 --> 00:11:52,879
head just looking at the picture. Uh so, okay, Zion

254
00:11:53,000 --> 00:11:55,120
for shot put, and I think we do go Steven

255
00:11:55,159 --> 00:11:59,159
Adams for rugby, just because imagine the things he would

256
00:11:59,240 --> 00:12:01,519
do out of to the referees at the bottom of

257
00:12:01,559 --> 00:12:03,879
that scrum, Like he would just he would be pulling

258
00:12:03,879 --> 00:12:05,879
fingernails out and all kinds of crazy stuff.

259
00:12:06,039 --> 00:12:07,679
Speaker 1: I don't know how much you know about this, like

260
00:12:07,759 --> 00:12:11,039
seven by seven rugby where it's the shorter pitch or whatever.

261
00:12:11,080 --> 00:12:14,039
It's called would he be as good suited for that?

262
00:12:14,080 --> 00:12:16,639
And also it's just is he too tall for it?

263
00:12:16,679 --> 00:12:19,320
Speaker 2: Probably? I mean probably, Yeah, they're all gonna be almost

264
00:12:19,320 --> 00:12:21,120
everybody's gonna be too tall. Also, like there is a

265
00:12:21,120 --> 00:12:24,399
fair amount of running. But I do like Steven Adams

266
00:12:24,440 --> 00:12:26,720
odds of just not being tackled by anybody.

267
00:12:27,240 --> 00:12:30,759
Speaker 1: He just feels like he has those very like deliberate strides.

268
00:12:31,039 --> 00:12:33,600
Now to where it's would he be, you know, able

269
00:12:33,600 --> 00:12:36,039
to keep up with just the physicality of it, like

270
00:12:36,159 --> 00:12:38,240
Jonas Allen Chunas is too slow for this, he'd be

271
00:12:38,279 --> 00:12:39,039
another good one.

272
00:12:39,320 --> 00:12:39,799
Speaker 2: Yeah.

273
00:12:39,960 --> 00:12:41,519
Speaker 1: I guess Zion might have been a better fit for

274
00:12:41,559 --> 00:12:43,159
rugby there, but I like Steven Adams there.

275
00:12:43,240 --> 00:12:49,039
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think that's fine. Let's do Let's go to archery.

276
00:12:49,759 --> 00:12:53,440
And I feel like this is since we don't have

277
00:12:53,519 --> 00:12:56,960
like darts or anything else that's just pure like repeatable

278
00:12:57,000 --> 00:13:00,159
motion skill, I think it has to be Steph for archery.

279
00:13:00,279 --> 00:13:02,039
We got to use him for something. I just like

280
00:13:02,120 --> 00:13:04,080
his odds of being accurate at anything.

281
00:13:04,639 --> 00:13:07,519
Speaker 1: I The only thing other thing I would probably would

282
00:13:07,519 --> 00:13:11,519
have considered him for was table tennis mm hm. But

283
00:13:12,000 --> 00:13:15,000
I feel like we should be able to find someone

284
00:13:15,039 --> 00:13:17,720
for that one, right, don't. I don't know, Archie. I mean,

285
00:13:17,720 --> 00:13:19,919
like he's just he's a dead eye shooter, so why

286
00:13:19,919 --> 00:13:21,519
not that probably scales to more equipment.

287
00:13:21,559 --> 00:13:23,799
Speaker 2: It's almost a boring pick because it's just like, yeah,

288
00:13:23,840 --> 00:13:26,759
of course, but I think I think that I feel

289
00:13:26,759 --> 00:13:29,000
good about that. There's another easy one on the board.

290
00:13:29,039 --> 00:13:29,600
I just realized.

291
00:13:29,639 --> 00:13:32,080
Speaker 1: Here's the thing though. Would he be the guy using

292
00:13:32,080 --> 00:13:35,200
all of the equipment and like the special scope glasses

293
00:13:35,279 --> 00:13:37,159
or is he the one just coming in looks like

294
00:13:37,200 --> 00:13:39,759
he just rolled out of bed. Yeah, obviously I knew

295
00:13:39,759 --> 00:13:41,799
that was a different competition the meme we're referencing.

296
00:13:41,840 --> 00:13:45,399
Speaker 2: But I think he's the guy that does all the

297
00:13:45,440 --> 00:13:50,720
work away from the bright lights, and then is the

298
00:13:50,759 --> 00:13:52,919
guy that hits the bulls eye but he's already turned

299
00:13:52,960 --> 00:13:55,559
around to celebrate before the arrow gets there, Like that's

300
00:13:55,600 --> 00:13:56,919
he's that casual with it.

301
00:13:58,320 --> 00:13:59,879
Speaker 1: Let's go to equestrian.

302
00:14:00,600 --> 00:14:04,320
Speaker 2: Okay, it doesn't matter the horse is doing all the work.

303
00:14:04,679 --> 00:14:06,919
Speaker 1: No, I think aren't jockeys, and I know they're not

304
00:14:06,960 --> 00:14:10,559
all jockeys. They're just typically on the smaller end, right.

305
00:14:10,639 --> 00:14:12,799
Speaker 2: Sure, yeah, you want to be small. I think it

306
00:14:12,919 --> 00:14:14,759
make it easier on the horse who again is doing

307
00:14:14,799 --> 00:14:16,600
all the work. So we got to pick a little

308
00:14:16,639 --> 00:14:17,039
guy here.

309
00:14:17,480 --> 00:14:20,759
Speaker 1: Who you got what about Chris Paul? Or is he

310
00:14:20,840 --> 00:14:21,519
too controlling?

311
00:14:21,600 --> 00:14:26,639
Speaker 2: He won't Well, guys, Chris Paul is in a speed

312
00:14:26,720 --> 00:14:29,519
walking commercial. We're going to pretend that's not a thing

313
00:14:29,600 --> 00:14:32,000
because we are going to have to pick a speed walker. Okay,

314
00:14:32,240 --> 00:14:36,159
So but so let's go even smaller. Who's like the

315
00:14:37,240 --> 00:14:39,080
who who in the league is like one hundred and

316
00:14:39,120 --> 00:14:40,919
fifty pounds? Who are we trade?

317
00:14:40,960 --> 00:14:41,159
Speaker 1: Young?

318
00:14:41,799 --> 00:14:45,600
Speaker 2: Trade? That's it? It's Tree Young. And also there's no

319
00:14:45,679 --> 00:14:47,399
issue with like he's.

320
00:14:47,200 --> 00:14:49,840
Speaker 1: Also someone who's not good at relinquishing control, though.

321
00:14:51,200 --> 00:14:53,399
Speaker 2: I was gonna go the other way. There's no issue

322
00:14:53,440 --> 00:14:55,480
with him pissing off a teammate because like the horse

323
00:14:55,799 --> 00:14:57,759
can't understand him. He's just that's a horse.

324
00:14:57,799 --> 00:15:00,000
Speaker 1: Like, yeah, he'll piss off the horse. Horses have feeling.

325
00:15:00,679 --> 00:15:06,799
Speaker 2: You know what though the horse the horse is uh,

326
00:15:07,320 --> 00:15:11,000
it's the horses used to uh someone else getting all

327
00:15:11,039 --> 00:15:13,120
the credit for all of its work, which is how

328
00:15:13,200 --> 00:15:16,000
Trey Young's teammates who have to play defense feel. So

329
00:15:16,159 --> 00:15:19,320
maybe there's like some it's like it relates a little bit.

330
00:15:19,360 --> 00:15:22,799
There is there anybody smaller than Trey Young. We could use,

331
00:15:23,480 --> 00:15:26,120
uh is Isaiah Thomas? What if Isaiah Thomas got on

332
00:15:26,159 --> 00:15:28,679
a roster, the horse would like him, everybody likes him.

333
00:15:28,720 --> 00:15:30,240
Speaker 1: That'd be a good one. But I feel like that's

334
00:15:30,240 --> 00:15:33,960
a little disingenuous to use right now. Who is who

335
00:15:33,960 --> 00:15:37,120
are the smallest active NBA players right now?

336
00:15:38,279 --> 00:15:42,440
Speaker 2: I mean Rob Dillingham is pretty pretty light. Uh here though,

337
00:15:42,559 --> 00:15:43,279
that's like, yeah.

338
00:15:43,200 --> 00:15:46,360
Speaker 1: Bit bigger than uh. Let me look at this, so

339
00:15:46,360 --> 00:15:50,120
I'm gonna sort this by players who are under Let's say,

340
00:15:50,840 --> 00:15:52,600
do we have any who are the under six footers

341
00:15:52,679 --> 00:15:53,720
right now in the league?

342
00:15:53,840 --> 00:15:54,879
Speaker 2: Almost nobody's listed.

343
00:15:54,960 --> 00:15:59,559
Speaker 1: No, there's only Isaiah Thomas last year apparently. All right,

344
00:15:59,600 --> 00:16:01,240
let's look at shorter than six four and see if

345
00:16:01,240 --> 00:16:06,360
anyone stands out. I mean Gyllen Brunton, ooh, do.

346
00:16:06,320 --> 00:16:08,600
Speaker 2: We need him for anything else? That's that's another one.

347
00:16:09,679 --> 00:16:12,639
Being left handed probably matters in team handball, I would imagine.

348
00:16:15,200 --> 00:16:17,039
Speaker 1: I think we'll probably get away with him here, unless

349
00:16:17,039 --> 00:16:18,720
you think that Trey Young is just better. I'm open

350
00:16:18,759 --> 00:16:19,440
to that for sure.

351
00:16:19,480 --> 00:16:23,000
Speaker 2: I mean, he's not at basketball or riding horses than

352
00:16:23,080 --> 00:16:26,519
Jalen Brunson. I do think. Just to keep with the bit,

353
00:16:26,600 --> 00:16:29,399
of let's choose someone light. Let's just go with Trey Young.

354
00:16:29,919 --> 00:16:32,159
I Brunson's got to have twenty pounds on him.

355
00:16:32,879 --> 00:16:35,120
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think that's uh, I think that's fair.

356
00:16:35,360 --> 00:16:38,159
Speaker 2: Is Chris is Chris Paul the Speedwalker? Is that is?

357
00:16:38,279 --> 00:16:40,279
Speaker 1: I forgot about his commercial? I guess he kind of has.

358
00:16:40,399 --> 00:16:42,240
Is there any like who is? Just feels like they

359
00:16:42,279 --> 00:16:44,320
would be a really good I feel like Jimmy Butler

360
00:16:44,960 --> 00:16:45,840
might win this event.

361
00:16:46,159 --> 00:16:47,399
Speaker 2: I kind of like that dude.

362
00:16:48,919 --> 00:16:50,919
Speaker 1: So maybe we go Jimmy, like Chris Paul's getting up

363
00:16:50,960 --> 00:16:52,000
there in age, you know.

364
00:16:52,000 --> 00:16:55,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, you're right, Well Jimmy's I mean he's not he's

365
00:16:55,720 --> 00:16:56,840
likeable to break down too.

366
00:16:57,240 --> 00:17:01,720
Speaker 1: Well, go with me on this, Okay, Maybe Luca because

367
00:17:01,759 --> 00:17:03,919
he doesn't mind, Like he's kind of used to walking

368
00:17:03,960 --> 00:17:05,599
up the court when he's not happy about a call

369
00:17:05,640 --> 00:17:07,119
that wasn't made at the other end, And so is

370
00:17:07,160 --> 00:17:09,079
this just like right in his wheelhouse there?

371
00:17:09,319 --> 00:17:11,480
Speaker 2: I think that's a great take, and I don't see

372
00:17:11,519 --> 00:17:13,720
anything else I really want to use Luca for so

373
00:17:13,799 --> 00:17:17,160
I think, uh, maybe just for the clicks, let's include Luca.

374
00:17:17,480 --> 00:17:21,119
As I'm moving off of I literally had Jimmy and

375
00:17:21,279 --> 00:17:23,480
Emo Jimmy's face by the way, because I haven't changed

376
00:17:23,519 --> 00:17:26,160
my well, they don't have new headshots yet, but I

377
00:17:26,680 --> 00:17:27,440
had Emo.

378
00:17:27,319 --> 00:17:29,240
Speaker 1: Jimmy all lined up and ready to go there. So

379
00:17:29,279 --> 00:17:30,680
you're gonna have to vamp for a little.

380
00:17:30,440 --> 00:17:31,359
Speaker 2: Bit, all right, That's fine.

381
00:17:31,680 --> 00:17:34,720
Speaker 1: Luca for power walking too, Like he'll his body type

382
00:17:34,720 --> 00:17:37,119
and I'm not even meaning like he'll like jockey people

383
00:17:37,119 --> 00:17:38,759
out of the way, just like he can get through

384
00:17:38,759 --> 00:17:40,960
these crowds that we're seeing on the screen, right.

385
00:17:40,920 --> 00:17:43,799
Speaker 2: Yeah, I imagine since you can only go so fast,

386
00:17:43,839 --> 00:17:46,480
A lot of it is about understandabase and angles and

387
00:17:46,519 --> 00:17:49,519
body position and like who's better than Luca when it

388
00:17:49,559 --> 00:17:51,079
comes to that stuff, because you're in a crowd the

389
00:17:51,119 --> 00:17:54,400
whole time. He loves, he loves, he wants contact. That's perfect.

390
00:17:54,480 --> 00:17:55,440
He's he's made for this.

391
00:17:55,839 --> 00:18:00,319
Speaker 1: I don't have like any immediate thoughts on what's left.

392
00:18:00,359 --> 00:18:01,640
It's your turn to pick, I think.

393
00:18:01,759 --> 00:18:03,319
Speaker 2: But boxing is James Johnson.

394
00:18:03,559 --> 00:18:06,240
Speaker 1: I just know it's not. First of all, who's boxing

395
00:18:06,319 --> 00:18:09,839
Draymond Green. He's got the length and he's prone to

396
00:18:09,880 --> 00:18:11,000
he will punch anybody.

397
00:18:12,319 --> 00:18:15,279
Speaker 2: I mean, James Johnson's a black belt in like fifteen

398
00:18:15,279 --> 00:18:18,319
different disciplines. Are we are we taking this seriously or not?

399
00:18:19,079 --> 00:18:21,240
I just I don't know if you if you look

400
00:18:21,319 --> 00:18:24,880
if Draymond Green and James Johnson fought, unless Draymon can

401
00:18:24,920 --> 00:18:27,559
get him from behind and choke him out, I feel

402
00:18:27,640 --> 00:18:31,039
like James Johnson, which would be illegal by the by

403
00:18:31,079 --> 00:18:36,640
the Olympic standards. Uh So Draymond could win if if

404
00:18:36,680 --> 00:18:39,839
he only if he didn't have to fight more than once. Uh,

405
00:18:39,960 --> 00:18:42,119
but I mean it has to be James Johnson. I

406
00:18:42,160 --> 00:18:45,519
can't believe you're fighting me on this too serious of

407
00:18:45,559 --> 00:18:46,920
a pick. Maybe that's the problem.

408
00:18:47,000 --> 00:18:48,960
Speaker 1: I think I was probably trying to go for someone

409
00:18:48,960 --> 00:18:51,119
and this isn't a reflection of you. I just wasn't

410
00:18:51,119 --> 00:18:54,240
gonna go with someone who had like a history of DV.

411
00:18:54,680 --> 00:18:57,559
Speaker 2: But well, I yeah, sure, I mean, but if we're

412
00:18:57,599 --> 00:19:00,000
everybody and when they talk about like who's the scariest

413
00:19:00,039 --> 00:19:01,920
guy in the league, it's always James Johnson.

414
00:19:02,319 --> 00:19:04,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, is there anyone that would be again, looking at

415
00:19:04,759 --> 00:19:07,759
just this event, then, is there anyone that would actually

416
00:19:07,759 --> 00:19:10,240
be like a viable alternative.

417
00:19:09,680 --> 00:19:13,400
Speaker 2: Pick who's like actually thrown a punch in the NBA

418
00:19:13,759 --> 00:19:14,880
in recent years?

419
00:19:15,400 --> 00:19:18,240
Speaker 1: Well, he asked like players from other eras they nobody

420
00:19:18,240 --> 00:19:19,440
because they're all just fakes off.

421
00:19:19,680 --> 00:19:21,359
Speaker 2: Yeah, right, nobody throws punches anymore.

422
00:19:21,480 --> 00:19:24,880
Speaker 1: I'm trying to think of like Russ might be good.

423
00:19:26,039 --> 00:19:30,400
Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, Russ would. Russ is tough, he would care,

424
00:19:31,240 --> 00:19:32,759
he would he would be able to take a lot

425
00:19:32,759 --> 00:19:34,079
of punishment and keep fighting.

426
00:19:34,119 --> 00:19:37,160
Speaker 1: It feels like if I thought that Oganna Noobi had

427
00:19:37,200 --> 00:19:39,400
like a violent streak to him, he would get an

428
00:19:39,400 --> 00:19:41,480
interesting pick. But I don't think what about Randall? She

429
00:19:41,559 --> 00:19:43,839
just gonna start naming Nicks players and say, yeah.

430
00:19:43,839 --> 00:19:45,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, just looking for tough guys. That's where you start.

431
00:19:45,960 --> 00:19:49,799
Speaker 1: I think, objectively speaking, just James Johnson's history, Yeah, like

432
00:19:50,000 --> 00:19:52,440
just background as a what is he of like eight

433
00:19:52,440 --> 00:19:53,400
black belts or something?

434
00:19:53,640 --> 00:19:56,839
Speaker 2: Yeah, No, it's like he's multiple martial arts. He has

435
00:19:56,839 --> 00:19:58,799
black belts in I don't know if any I think

436
00:19:58,799 --> 00:20:01,160
one of them is kickboxing, so he's he already knows

437
00:20:01,200 --> 00:20:03,759
how to do like boxing. Plus more so boxing should

438
00:20:03,759 --> 00:20:04,119
be easy.

439
00:20:05,000 --> 00:20:09,559
Speaker 1: Where do we want to go for badminton?

440
00:20:10,319 --> 00:20:10,720
Speaker 2: All right?

441
00:20:11,039 --> 00:20:14,599
Speaker 1: This is like someone needs to be like like have

442
00:20:14,759 --> 00:20:16,359
like a ridiculously high IQ.

443
00:20:17,480 --> 00:20:24,839
Speaker 2: I think maybe I was thinking like quick reflexes, smart understands,

444
00:20:24,880 --> 00:20:28,279
like trying, you know, hit it where they ain't like that.

445
00:20:28,519 --> 00:20:31,359
Speaker 1: You know what, is this a Jael and Sugs event?

446
00:20:31,799 --> 00:20:33,519
Like talk about who are the best hands in the

447
00:20:33,599 --> 00:20:34,440
NBA right now?

448
00:20:34,519 --> 00:20:37,079
Speaker 2: That's interesting because I was my first thought was Drew Holliday,

449
00:20:37,720 --> 00:20:40,319
but kind of the same same idea, sug Suggs is

450
00:20:40,559 --> 00:20:44,160
Suggs is kind of in that vein. We could go

451
00:20:44,240 --> 00:20:45,759
Derek White too, if we're.

452
00:20:45,599 --> 00:20:47,640
Speaker 1: Talking, you know what, I think Derek White is the pick.

453
00:20:47,960 --> 00:20:48,519
Speaker 2: I like it.

454
00:20:48,880 --> 00:20:50,720
Speaker 1: I like that one. The other one I thought of,

455
00:20:50,759 --> 00:20:52,640
but I don't know if he's like too long for it.

456
00:20:53,160 --> 00:20:55,400
Uh Shay Gilges Alexander.

457
00:20:55,519 --> 00:20:58,000
Speaker 2: Real real quick, gets a lot of steals. Yeah, like

458
00:20:58,039 --> 00:21:01,319
the guy. Maybe we should just go to deflections per

459
00:21:01,400 --> 00:21:03,359
thirty six if we're assuming you got to be real

460
00:21:03,440 --> 00:21:05,759
quick and just pick that. I mean, who is I

461
00:21:05,839 --> 00:21:07,880
just looking at? You know who? You know who led

462
00:21:07,920 --> 00:21:10,240
the league among guys who played like at least a

463
00:21:10,240 --> 00:21:12,519
little bit in deflections per thirty six last year as

464
00:21:12,599 --> 00:21:16,279
Robert Covington. He's too old probably to be used here,

465
00:21:16,400 --> 00:21:19,160
but and also he's a free agent, so maybe he's ineligible.

466
00:21:20,079 --> 00:21:22,720
I think I think Derek White is a solid one

467
00:21:22,720 --> 00:21:23,119
there that.

468
00:21:23,119 --> 00:21:25,559
Speaker 1: Feels like the good middle ground, and it also satisfies

469
00:21:25,599 --> 00:21:28,240
the bigger name criteria, which I'm sure some people would

470
00:21:28,240 --> 00:21:30,240
think that Jalen Suggs doesn't qualify.

471
00:21:30,440 --> 00:21:34,000
Speaker 2: Sure, okay, but now maybe we just go now to

472
00:21:34,079 --> 00:21:36,880
table tennis because we're kind of looking at similar skill sets,

473
00:21:38,119 --> 00:21:41,200
maybe like a little less mobility, but probably even more

474
00:21:41,640 --> 00:21:46,319
like quickness. I just man, I'm trying to think who

475
00:21:46,119 --> 00:21:49,400
who's got like just the quickest hands. That might just

476
00:21:49,440 --> 00:21:52,759
be holiday. We might just have to use holiday holiday.

477
00:21:52,839 --> 00:21:54,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, do you think he has the mobility for it still?

478
00:21:54,799 --> 00:21:56,720
Or should that be this Beest Sugs?

479
00:21:56,759 --> 00:22:00,319
Speaker 2: It's a short area, you're not moving a ton, like.

480
00:22:01,359 --> 00:22:04,599
Speaker 1: Like do we trust I granted, hitting a ping pong

481
00:22:04,640 --> 00:22:07,799
ball is not akin to making jumpers, but like, do

482
00:22:07,839 --> 00:22:09,759
we want someone who's more of an assassin like it

483
00:22:09,920 --> 00:22:10,960
when it comes to precision?

484
00:22:11,200 --> 00:22:14,720
Speaker 2: I got somebody else. I think Duncan Robinson was a

485
00:22:14,720 --> 00:22:19,359
tennis player, Okay, And so it's I can't imagine there's

486
00:22:19,359 --> 00:22:22,400
a ton of NBA players with like high level tennis experience.

487
00:22:22,960 --> 00:22:28,279
So I might just go there quickly just because of

488
00:22:28,279 --> 00:22:31,279
the speed like this, or because you know he played tennis.

489
00:22:33,279 --> 00:22:35,160
Speaker 1: I'm just like, because the speed, I don't know that

490
00:22:35,200 --> 00:22:36,880
he I don't know that he played tennis.

491
00:22:37,519 --> 00:22:39,880
Speaker 2: I want to verify that I didn't make up that

492
00:22:39,960 --> 00:22:41,359
Duncan Robinson played tennis.

493
00:22:41,799 --> 00:22:43,680
Speaker 1: Steph Curry is apparent. This is why I want to

494
00:22:43,680 --> 00:22:46,480
save him for table tennis grants would have been so easy.

495
00:22:46,640 --> 00:22:49,200
Speaker 2: Well who are you gonna use for archery instead? And

496
00:22:49,359 --> 00:22:50,680
do you and how much do you want to redo

497
00:22:50,720 --> 00:22:51,920
the graphic? Is the real question?

498
00:22:52,400 --> 00:22:54,240
Speaker 1: Oh no, I'm not going to redo it. It's too late.

499
00:22:54,319 --> 00:22:56,680
Now we've moved, We've moved past it. There's no there's

500
00:22:56,680 --> 00:22:58,640
no going back. We have. We've made our bed. We

501
00:22:58,680 --> 00:23:00,640
now have to lie in it. Trying to think of

502
00:23:00,720 --> 00:23:03,440
just what about Clay feels like maybe he you know,

503
00:23:03,599 --> 00:23:05,319
that's probably taking a bunch of edibles and played some

504
00:23:05,359 --> 00:23:08,039
table tennis in every day.

505
00:23:08,119 --> 00:23:10,519
Speaker 2: God, why can't I think? I'm starting to get concerned.

506
00:23:10,559 --> 00:23:12,920
I made up that Duncan Robinson played tennis.

507
00:23:14,359 --> 00:23:16,519
Speaker 1: Now we can't pick him because you're just you're lying.

508
00:23:16,759 --> 00:23:20,200
Speaker 2: But I know I can't be trusted. Yeah, I don't know.

509
00:23:20,279 --> 00:23:24,160
I feel like he said that on a podcast, So who.

510
00:23:24,039 --> 00:23:26,680
Speaker 1: Do you is like that that's your pick to represent,

511
00:23:27,519 --> 00:23:31,000
like in the the the NBA, in the Olympics and tables.

512
00:23:31,119 --> 00:23:36,440
Speaker 2: Anybody I apparently made up that I thought had played

513
00:23:36,720 --> 00:23:40,559
table uh tennis of any or racket sport of any kind. Wait,

514
00:23:40,599 --> 00:23:41,960
so who's your table tennis pick?

515
00:23:42,400 --> 00:23:44,079
Speaker 1: Do you have one like the manual? Quickly?

516
00:23:45,519 --> 00:23:45,920
Speaker 2: Hmmm.

517
00:23:47,519 --> 00:23:49,079
Speaker 1: See, there's a lot of people who seem to think

518
00:23:49,079 --> 00:23:50,319
of Lebron could be good at.

519
00:23:50,240 --> 00:23:54,119
Speaker 2: Tennis, and this is like we I mean Lebron, We've

520
00:23:54,200 --> 00:23:56,160
kind of made a mistake in not using Lebron for

521
00:23:56,200 --> 00:23:58,039
anything because it feels like he has to be included.

522
00:23:58,279 --> 00:24:03,000
Speaker 1: I'll give you. I'll give you between handball guy shorter court.

523
00:24:03,440 --> 00:24:04,559
It'll just dominate there.

524
00:24:05,079 --> 00:24:07,839
Speaker 2: Let's let's go. I'll give you quickly at table tennis.

525
00:24:08,039 --> 00:24:10,519
But we have to you have to issue a formal

526
00:24:10,559 --> 00:24:13,119
apology if Duncan Robinson actually did play tennis and it

527
00:24:13,119 --> 00:24:14,160
turns out him right, but.

528
00:24:14,039 --> 00:24:16,400
Speaker 1: That's probably first of all, tennis. Is I played tennis too?

529
00:24:16,440 --> 00:24:17,799
Tennis is not table tennis.

530
00:24:18,079 --> 00:24:21,599
Speaker 2: No, But well, but you're probably you probably have like

531
00:24:22,240 --> 00:24:24,160
just a little bit of an advantage at table tennis

532
00:24:24,160 --> 00:24:27,400
against someone that hadn't played actual tennis, right, I mean

533
00:24:27,440 --> 00:24:28,119
I guess.

534
00:24:28,400 --> 00:24:31,440
Speaker 1: I guess as someone who's like as tall as Duncan, right,

535
00:24:31,519 --> 00:24:33,599
is that at all disadvantage like it. It could be

536
00:24:33,640 --> 00:24:35,480
an advantage at the net in tennis. And when it

537
00:24:35,480 --> 00:24:38,119
comes to your serve, is there any real advantage to

538
00:24:38,160 --> 00:24:41,640
it when you're playing table tennis, I might value the

539
00:24:41,720 --> 00:24:43,839
lateral click quick, do you see how far these people

540
00:24:43,880 --> 00:24:44,759
are away from the table.

541
00:24:45,200 --> 00:24:48,000
Speaker 2: You gotta be able to move. I mean we over

542
00:24:48,039 --> 00:24:50,519
index on, like, who's really quick? So I think I

543
00:24:50,559 --> 00:24:56,119
guess by that logic quickly makes sense there.

544
00:24:53,440 --> 00:24:56,920
Speaker 1: You were looking to put Lebron somewhere. I think of

545
00:24:57,000 --> 00:24:59,680
the events that are left, team handball might be it.

546
00:25:00,079 --> 00:25:01,880
Speaker 2: I think we're going to have to do that. Yeah,

547
00:25:02,000 --> 00:25:04,160
I like it, you gotta have. I watched a little

548
00:25:04,160 --> 00:25:07,599
bit of this actually the other day. I don't this this, Dan,

549
00:25:07,759 --> 00:25:09,559
Do you realize how perfect this is? Uh?

550
00:25:09,960 --> 00:25:10,440
Speaker 1: I don't.

551
00:25:10,480 --> 00:25:14,079
Speaker 2: There's some equivalent. It's not the same rule, but there

552
00:25:14,160 --> 00:25:17,279
is kind of like a traveling thing in team handball,

553
00:25:17,319 --> 00:25:20,799
where you get a certain number of steps without dribbling

554
00:25:20,839 --> 00:25:24,799
the ball. And Lebron has always been among the greatest

555
00:25:24,880 --> 00:25:26,880
at like how do you get that extra step on

556
00:25:26,920 --> 00:25:29,640
that layup? And why wasn't that actually three? So that's

557
00:25:29,680 --> 00:25:33,079
a factor. The vision's a factor, the speed, the strength

558
00:25:33,279 --> 00:25:36,400
he can throw over the top. That's a that's a

559
00:25:36,440 --> 00:25:38,960
good one. I think i'd certainly given what else we have,

560
00:25:39,400 --> 00:25:41,759
Lebron has to be the team handball guy.

561
00:25:41,920 --> 00:25:43,440
Speaker 1: You were so and look, you're from the West Coast,

562
00:25:43,440 --> 00:25:45,839
so I just assume you've played volleyball all the time.

563
00:25:46,359 --> 00:25:48,039
Who was your You said it was going to be

564
00:25:48,079 --> 00:25:50,880
easy to find someone that would be great at volleyball.

565
00:25:50,920 --> 00:25:53,200
Who's the who's the NBA player we're sending the Olympics

566
00:25:53,200 --> 00:25:53,759
for volleyball.

567
00:25:53,799 --> 00:25:56,240
Speaker 2: I mean, it's a huge bummer that Chase Budinger hasn't

568
00:25:56,480 --> 00:25:58,400
played in the NBA recently because he is in fact

569
00:25:58,440 --> 00:26:01,039
an Olympic level volleyball player, but which we probably.

570
00:26:00,839 --> 00:26:02,400
Speaker 1: Would not be if he still played in the NBA

571
00:26:02,480 --> 00:26:04,000
though that's true.

572
00:26:04,240 --> 00:26:07,799
Speaker 2: Uh man, Okay, so is Kevin Love too old?

573
00:26:08,000 --> 00:26:09,160
Speaker 1: I know he played volleyball.

574
00:26:09,240 --> 00:26:11,680
Speaker 2: He's way too old, I think. So what we need

575
00:26:11,759 --> 00:26:14,720
is someone who can just be an incredible like middle blocker,

576
00:26:14,839 --> 00:26:17,440
So think like a center that can get off the

577
00:26:17,480 --> 00:26:20,599
floor like obviously Wemby. Yeah it would have been great here,

578
00:26:21,000 --> 00:26:26,200
or somebody who's like a super explosive athletic outside hitter.

579
00:26:26,559 --> 00:26:28,039
Those are the guys that you don't have to be

580
00:26:28,119 --> 00:26:29,880
that tall, but they just jump out of the gym.

581
00:26:30,160 --> 00:26:32,279
Or we could have a setter who has like great

582
00:26:32,319 --> 00:26:36,359
court vision, who all they do is facilitate, have to

583
00:26:36,359 --> 00:26:38,839
be like tricky and sneaky because you like fake out

584
00:26:38,960 --> 00:26:40,720
the other team who you're setting. So we have a

585
00:26:40,759 --> 00:26:42,400
lot of we don't necessarily have to.

586
00:26:42,319 --> 00:26:45,759
Speaker 1: Pick here who Zion would have been good?

587
00:26:45,759 --> 00:26:50,079
Speaker 2: Here about Yiannis? Honest is Jannis could kind of do all. Well,

588
00:26:50,160 --> 00:26:51,799
let's see now I'm kind of hung up on what

589
00:26:51,880 --> 00:26:56,279
if we just found like who's the sneakiest like facilitator

590
00:26:56,319 --> 00:27:01,319
in the league, Like could be seeing underrated or no,

591
00:27:01,599 --> 00:27:04,400
like just is like tricky with his passing, Like does

592
00:27:04,440 --> 00:27:06,279
a lot of like look one way throw that like

593
00:27:06,279 --> 00:27:11,319
a Halliburton type. Maybe this isn't someone that's gonna hit ever,

594
00:27:11,559 --> 00:27:14,920
like almost ever, they're just gonna like fake fake you

595
00:27:14,960 --> 00:27:18,480
out and like set somebody else open after they've manipulated

596
00:27:18,519 --> 00:27:19,880
the defense to go the wrong way.

597
00:27:20,160 --> 00:27:20,960
Speaker 1: What about LaMelo?

598
00:27:21,680 --> 00:27:25,839
Speaker 2: LaMelo would be interesting. Man, we got a lot of

599
00:27:25,880 --> 00:27:27,039
ways to go with volleyball.

600
00:27:28,359 --> 00:27:32,119
Speaker 1: I'm almost wondering which one. So which archetype do you prefer?

601
00:27:32,240 --> 00:27:35,680
Were you kind of outlining the more explosive athletic like

602
00:27:35,799 --> 00:27:38,160
middle person if we.

603
00:27:38,359 --> 00:27:41,759
Speaker 2: Just went like let's say we go outside hitter someone

604
00:27:41,799 --> 00:27:45,880
that just who do you imagine taking off with two

605
00:27:45,920 --> 00:27:49,680
feet and throwing down like a ridiculous like one handed

606
00:27:49,960 --> 00:27:52,400
like windmill or Tomahawk? Like who comes to mind when

607
00:27:52,400 --> 00:27:54,759
you think of that, besides Anthony Edwards who already used

608
00:27:55,240 --> 00:27:59,839
and we use Jam Raans, we use m What about

609
00:28:00,240 --> 00:28:05,079
dub No, he doesn't get up like that like the

610
00:28:05,440 --> 00:28:10,559
vicious finishes Jalen Green. He's more of a one foot guy.

611
00:28:11,960 --> 00:28:14,720
Who else was like who else was in the dunk contest?

612
00:28:14,759 --> 00:28:17,480
That is actually like a decent nobody with a big name.

613
00:28:19,480 --> 00:28:21,359
I mean, we could just throw Rudy gober In as

614
00:28:21,400 --> 00:28:23,400
a middle blocker, like you're not You're just not gonna

615
00:28:23,440 --> 00:28:24,160
hit over that guy.

616
00:28:24,839 --> 00:28:27,440
Speaker 1: Would that be your pick? If that's the actually, if

617
00:28:27,440 --> 00:28:30,160
you're going the middle blocking route, not Bam.

618
00:28:31,000 --> 00:28:32,799
Speaker 2: Bam would be good. But you know what, and Bam

619
00:28:32,839 --> 00:28:35,160
could do kind of all of it. He could be

620
00:28:35,200 --> 00:28:37,519
your middle blocker. He's a good passer, so maybe he

621
00:28:37,559 --> 00:28:39,599
could set if you needed him to. I kind of

622
00:28:39,640 --> 00:28:41,759
love Bam, great call. I think it needs to be

623
00:28:41,839 --> 00:28:43,079
Bam and he could hit to.

624
00:28:43,480 --> 00:28:45,799
Speaker 1: We stumbled into our pick. Look look at U. Where's that? Paul?

625
00:28:46,359 --> 00:28:46,799
Look it up?

626
00:28:47,480 --> 00:28:48,279
Speaker 2: Look at us?

627
00:28:48,920 --> 00:28:50,680
Speaker 1: This is this next one is going to be our

628
00:28:50,759 --> 00:28:51,799
last one, I believe right.

629
00:28:51,799 --> 00:28:55,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, pull vault. So the men's record was set in

630
00:28:55,440 --> 00:29:00,279
pole vault, and so I'm trying to like the the

631
00:29:00,319 --> 00:29:04,680
frame of the pole vaulter seems to be like, you

632
00:29:04,680 --> 00:29:06,440
don't have to be you're probably like you can be

633
00:29:06,599 --> 00:29:09,799
fairly tall, but you don't want to be like, you know,

634
00:29:10,000 --> 00:29:13,680
six seven or six even six five, probably gotta be

635
00:29:13,720 --> 00:29:16,319
you gotta kind of look like a like a four

636
00:29:16,400 --> 00:29:19,559
hundred meter runner, but a little bigger. I would say, so, like,

637
00:29:20,440 --> 00:29:23,799
who's I mean, maybe this is Fox because you got

638
00:29:23,839 --> 00:29:27,440
to get some speed up, uh, you know, running running

639
00:29:27,599 --> 00:29:33,160
towards the whatever the apparatus. Uh, he's like wiry strong,

640
00:29:34,119 --> 00:29:36,000
I kind of love and we we did kind of

641
00:29:36,599 --> 00:29:38,880
lose him or I talked you out of him for

642
00:29:38,920 --> 00:29:41,200
the hundred. So maybe it's Darren Fox for the pole vault.

643
00:29:41,200 --> 00:29:41,799
What do you think about that?

644
00:29:41,839 --> 00:29:43,039
Speaker 1: I think that's a good one. I don't know if

645
00:29:43,039 --> 00:29:45,680
there's like any like maybe Donovan Mitchell.

646
00:29:45,839 --> 00:29:48,359
Speaker 2: Yeah, it could be him. Mitchell's a little stockier than

647
00:29:48,400 --> 00:29:49,880
a lot of these guys. Where I think you want

648
00:29:49,920 --> 00:29:52,599
the wiry like, yeah, why.

649
00:29:52,559 --> 00:29:54,000
Speaker 1: Bane came to mind, But then I was like, oh,

650
00:29:54,039 --> 00:29:54,680
he's a little too.

651
00:29:54,559 --> 00:29:57,119
Speaker 2: Stocky, little too Yeah, I don't think you want you know,

652
00:29:57,160 --> 00:30:00,240
you gotta you gotta be light enough to really fling yourself,

653
00:30:00,480 --> 00:30:02,599
uh with the off the pole. So I yeah, I

654
00:30:02,599 --> 00:30:05,160
think I think Fox is kind of perfect for that,

655
00:30:05,720 --> 00:30:08,759
for the pole vaulting. Yeah, so you heard it here first,

656
00:30:08,799 --> 00:30:11,079
Dearon vox Olympic caliber pole vaulter.

657
00:30:11,680 --> 00:30:14,559
Speaker 1: Uh, and we had him as a potentially Olympic caliber

658
00:30:14,759 --> 00:30:17,799
What do we say? Uh? What I was about to

659
00:30:17,799 --> 00:30:19,519
say it wasn't gymnast because I was so dead set

660
00:30:19,559 --> 00:30:22,079
on Jaw. Do you like Jaw better for the pole vault? Like,

661
00:30:22,119 --> 00:30:23,960
should Dearn Fox have been our gymnast?

662
00:30:24,079 --> 00:30:25,920
Speaker 2: I mean, we got to get Jaw in the air

663
00:30:26,000 --> 00:30:28,799
one way or the other. And I think I think

664
00:30:28,799 --> 00:30:31,079
we got it right. I think Jaw as a gymnast

665
00:30:31,119 --> 00:30:32,720
and then Fox as the pole vaulter.

666
00:30:33,240 --> 00:30:37,119
