What's Up? Everybody? Welcome back to The Draymond Green Show
with My Dog VD. What's Happening? What's Up? Big Dog?
Speaker 5 (01:31):
Followed the show on all social media platform that act
Draymond Green Show, so you don't miss out on our
special show announcements. Now let's get right into it. The
NBA cump versus the Rockets was a tough loss. I know,
I know I've been there before.
Speaker 4 (01:55):
I'll tell you. I know you gotta walk us through. Man.
It was like a reference Despied three two.
Speaker 6 (02:06):
Listen, you know I've been in the league now thirteen years.
All games are not created equal, as you know, BD,
some games you're going to get up for more than others.
Some games you're just not gonna be able to find
a juice over the course of an eighty two game season.
Some games you ain't gonna be able to hit a shot.
(02:27):
Some games that the riom gonna be wide is the
specific ocean. That's just the nature of what we do.
Because of that nature and doing it for thirteen years,
I don't get too high or too low on winning
losing the game, especially in December, but this game in particular,
(02:50):
and I don't know why, and I think maybe it's
the opportunity to play for something, you know, like just
having an opportunity to compete for something is.
Speaker 4 (03:00):
Always special for me. And I have not been.
Speaker 6 (03:06):
As hurt as I was losing that or am losing
that game since twenty sixteen Game seven, because I know
what that feels if you think about it. In twenty
sixteen Game seven, I got suspended, you got spend from
(03:26):
game five, and then what's changed the series?
Speaker 4 (03:29):
Like it completely changed the sentiens, right, all right.
Speaker 6 (03:32):
So that's twenty sixteen crushed because I know that we're
supposed to win this series. Like it just felt like
at the end of it, it just felt like something
got taken away, like like, damn, like they they took
away what was ours. And so in twenty sixteen, I
(03:52):
felt that way. In twenty nineteen Game six, Clay Terras's
ACL Game five, KD Terror is a kill.
Speaker 4 (04:01):
Ain't really much you can do, right, Like, you lose.
Speaker 6 (04:04):
That series, Yeah, complete fight, like you move on like
it's unfortunate.
Speaker 4 (04:11):
Just how the bad go at it, you know, like cool,
you move on from that one, right.
Speaker 6 (04:16):
Twenty twenty KD left steps out with a broken hand,
Clays out with.
Speaker 4 (04:21):
Uh you know his ACL. Yeah.
Speaker 6 (04:26):
In twenty twenty one, we built him back right then
we won the championship. In twenty twenty two, twenty twenty three,
we lose to the Lakers. We just weren't good enough, right, So,
like when you look at these years, or call it
since twenty and fifteen, in the run that we've been on,
the only time where I really felt like, dang, they
(04:48):
just took what was ours was twenty and sixteen of
where like factors were what they were and we should
have won. That's the only time I felt like, Wow,
something got taken from us. I haven't felt like that
since then. The last time I had that feeling as
(05:11):
a whole was when our home got broken into it
back in twenty twenty two, and you just felt kind
of like violated, like wow, like like somebody took something
away from us, Like that was always you know what
I'm saying, like that's the last time I really really
really felt like that. Then you fast forward to two
(05:33):
nights ago and it's like, wow, this is our game,
like and we're competing for something, and then it just
got taken away.
Speaker 4 (05:43):
For me. That was one that was like it was
a gut punch man, like I was up to holding.
Speaker 6 (05:51):
Like I couldn't really sleep after you know what I'm saying,
Like sleep was jacked up after like it just it
just was going like it.
Speaker 4 (06:01):
Was bothering me.
Speaker 5 (06:03):
Bro it was bothering me and I wasn't even playing,
just like you just keep thinking like damn, if you
just if this this happened, if.
Speaker 4 (06:12):
That, like you know what I'm saying, or you know,
I'm looking I'm going back.
Speaker 6 (06:17):
I'm looking at every play like, man, if I get
to stop here, if I don't go for the pump
fake there and give them two free throws, we was upseven,
We get to stop there, now we possibly go up
nine or ten, right and so you start like recounting
every single play, like and just going back like dang man,
(06:37):
literally if one play was different, if we get one
more stop or one more bucket, like, that game is
over right, And so you just start going back on
all those plays, yeah.
Speaker 5 (06:49):
Or one two good possessions you may not even score,
but just great possessions and keep you a plow on
defense and offense.
Speaker 4 (06:56):
The game's over.
Speaker 6 (06:58):
And so I'm going through this whole thing, bro, And
I'm just like the whole night. I'm like, you know,
back and forth like god man, like, how did this
game get away from us?
Speaker 4 (07:11):
And Bro, I'm still salty about it, Like.
Speaker 5 (07:18):
It's crazy shout out to always. I gotta get a rockess.
I told you that's my surprise team. They just that
on one end. It's like you, as a young team
on the road, you need every single little thing to
happen to have an opportunity to go your way. And
I thought they never stopped playing, you know what I mean,
(07:39):
They didn't never stop playing hard. And then it was
just the ball start just like they just start getting
favor Yeah.
Speaker 4 (07:47):
Yeah, it was like this magical favor. I do not like.
Speaker 5 (07:54):
When the game ends on a call that should never
were determined. I'll come up the game. Yes, now, as
you know, I told you I was Draymond Green before
Dymond Green with the referees, and so I only talked
(08:16):
to the referees.
Speaker 4 (08:17):
You know what I mean.
Speaker 5 (08:19):
Friends in the first quarter, second quarter, friend of me
is in the third quarter, and then dependent if we
went and are losing, what I say to you at
the end of the gay you know, but like to
be in that situation. The rep double downs on this
two minute reporter and said it was a loose ball
foul was the correct call. I personally think that he
(08:45):
should have just shut the fuck up, call it jump off.
Anything but a foul, right like this happened to us,
And this happened to us during the we Believe year
we were playing against Washington.
Speaker 4 (08:59):
I was not playing, but our Herrington foul.
Speaker 5 (09:01):
Gilbert Arenas Dotty call a foul with like point three
on the clock and he was driving those moments when
you know it's like, damn, we got gut punch, everything
got away. You can blame something on one call, but
it's really like if we.
Speaker 4 (09:19):
Do do do do do it never happened again.
Speaker 5 (09:23):
That's what I feel like and you know, it's like
you need that moment in the season where you're like,
you know what, we're never losing like this again, you
know what I mean, like attention to detail, sharpness. And
then that's also like, all right, I can't get fine
for talking about the ref. You know, you don't talk
about it, but I know what you're making that gut
punch because it's like everything y'all could have done just
(09:46):
one thing the way you usually do things. Everything they
needed to go right for them, wrong for you, wrong
for you, happened in their favor, and then.
Speaker 4 (09:58):
You know what I mean, give me this. This doesn't
belong to you.
Speaker 6 (10:03):
You know, I've been on the right side of a
lot of great things in this league, you know when
it comes to when losing it. So when they when
they're in your favorite you can't be the guy that's like,
oh man, we had the favor and like we won,
and then when it goes against you, you be the
one that's like, I'm gonna blame everything.
Speaker 4 (10:20):
Now. Obviously I disagree with the call.
Speaker 6 (10:24):
I think, you know, when I look at the whole
thing shake out from the vanished point I had, I
see GP dive on the ball. I see Fredvan please
dive on GP back man directly on his back. So
I'm looking at it like, oh okay, like wow, they
ain't calling me all right, keep playing, you know what
I'm saying.
Speaker 4 (10:41):
Like, and then to see that call after what just
happened with GP having the ball, and to also see
two other referees come in like jump ball, you know
what I'm saying.
Speaker 6 (10:52):
And then one referee come in with a file. It's
like whoa, Like are you really doing this?
Speaker 4 (11:02):
Like you know? And so I was just taken back
by the file.
Speaker 6 (11:08):
You got a guy on his back eighty feet from
the rim, and like we call a file and give
two free throws with that amount of time left.
Speaker 4 (11:16):
Yeah, that ain't the way, bro.
Speaker 6 (11:18):
No, And I thought that was crazy. Nonetheless, calls go
the wrong way all the time. It's on us as
players to not put ourselves in that position to where
that call can affect the outcome of the game. And
so when I look at all the things that went wrong,
you know, we go underneath a frev and Vliet you know,
just coming in off an inbound and he hit the
three right that custom from sixty three. Those are mistakes
(11:41):
that we can't have you know what I'm saying. I
get to stop on shingoon. I need to get that rebound.
I knock it off a step head and go out
of bounds. They get it, you know, they get another possession,
you know. And so there were there were plays.
Speaker 5 (11:54):
You know, uh, little things, man, There's just little you know,
kind of little errors like one, you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 6 (12:01):
Sure, you know JK slipping off for Steph. Me throwing
the ball, him not catching the ball right bad. You know,
I had too much steam on the pass, so I
can throw a better pass. And then my thing is
JK is And to the young guys, there's a different
level of physicality at that game, at that in the game,
at that point, if he grabbing your arm right there
(12:23):
on that catch, like you you got to rip your
arm away. They ain't calling that fire, you know what
I'm saying, with a minute left in the game. You know.
So it's things like that that when I look at
all of those things, we could have done better. I
know everybody made a lot about the Steph shot with
twelve on the game clock, nine on the shot clock.
I actually like the shot number one is Steph getting
(12:45):
to his left step back, which is step shot. That's
the night night, Like, that's that's what it is, like,
that's where the night comes from. Everybody's like, oh man,
he shot the ball too soon, And I say, yeah,
like in.
Speaker 4 (13:00):
An ideal world, do you want to run a little
more clock?
Speaker 6 (13:03):
Yes, but we got six shot clock possessions in this game, Like,
so you take the first good look you can get
in that situation.
Speaker 4 (13:10):
Again, he hit that shot. We going for it that
game over.
Speaker 6 (13:13):
You know, we can always look back and be like yo,
like maybe he took this earlier.
Speaker 4 (13:18):
We could like, yeah, that's that all right?
Speaker 1 (13:21):
Cool?
Speaker 6 (13:21):
But again he got an incredible look, Like incredible look.
Speaker 4 (13:26):
I'm living with it ten times out of ten.
Speaker 6 (13:28):
And like I said, we had had six shot clock violations.
Taking that great look with the clock running down like that,
I ain't mad at that at all. So I just think,
like I said, I'm you know, a little upsetting for
the game to end or two free tows like that
with a play like that, nobody's scoring position, with all
(13:51):
the things leading up to it, upsetting. But you got
to make the plays down the stretch and give the
Houston Rockets credit.
Speaker 4 (14:00):
They made the place down the stretch and we didn't
a little heartbreak. Man, that was a gut punch for short.
Speaker 6 (14:05):
That's the first time that organization has been able to
deliver a gut punch like that to me in my career.
Speaker 4 (14:10):
So that's a new territory of newfound territory. You know.
Speaker 5 (14:13):
It was a flag football coach. The ref took one
away from me and the change him game. He feel
what I'm saying. I know how you feel about refs,
and I like to apologize to all refs out there
for my behavior. I have flag football, but I was
right and my son did catch the game winning touchdown
(14:36):
and the ref said that the ball was out. So
I screenshot the ref and texting him about thirty times
until he approved that he made a mistake. And so
if we need to bring him on the show. Just
some people in the Flag football league don't think I'm petty.
I just know we won.
Speaker 4 (14:53):
You know what I mean?
Speaker 5 (14:54):
That about winning or losing is just when you know, hey,
he made a mistake.
Speaker 4 (15:01):
What's my fault? You know what I mean?
Speaker 5 (15:04):
Somebody did something great, somebody made a mistake. Facts winners
and losers right about the facts. The facts is, Hey,
you can have the trophy. We won that game because
he made a mistake.
Speaker 4 (15:17):
So I get it.
Speaker 5 (15:19):
Refs, come on, man, get your mind right, referee. Man,
I need to you know, I need to. I think
they got even softer since Richard Jeffs, since they let
Richard Jefferson become a referee. He was, he was probably
in the locker room just telling everybody's stuff.
Speaker 4 (15:41):
Come on, r J, get up off. That is a fact. RJ. Yeah.
Speaker 5 (15:47):
But seriously, you know, like in a situation like this,
you said gut punch, right, and so really, how do
you you know, how do you grow from this?
Speaker 4 (15:56):
Again? I think that's just something that for us as
a team.
Speaker 6 (15:59):
Here's the thing, all right, disagree with that call being
made at that time, but here's the thing. We've lost
games like this already, so it ain't like this is
the first time. And like, no, we we put ourselves
in these positions where we've allowed games to be taken
away from us at the other games and having big
(16:21):
leads in the fourth quarter. This has become a thing
for this team. So we have to fix that. Like, yeah,
we can sit and complain about the roughs and like
everybody in the world saw what the same thing we
saw like, I don't need to sit and harp on that.
We have to figure out what it is that's putting
us in these situations that's cost us now maybe four
(16:43):
games already this year, four or five games. What is
it that is putting us in these situations? And how
to fix that. That's the way this team grows. We
ain't gonna grow by worrying about Oh man, that call
was wrong at the end.
Speaker 4 (16:58):
Of the game.
Speaker 6 (16:58):
Yeah, whatever, what are you doing to put yourself in
a position to where that car can affect the game?
That's what our look need to be and that's what
needs to be fixed with us. You can't sit and
worry about what car was made. What can you do
to avoid that? It's our job and that's how we
(17:18):
got to move on forward.
Speaker 4 (17:20):
Tension and detail. That's it is one thought person.
Speaker 5 (17:32):
You know the NBA Cup Now we're looking at you know, Milwaukee, Atlanta. Okay,
see versus the Rockets. You got any thoughts, any care?
Are you gonna watch?
Speaker 4 (17:49):
Think? I don't know if I'll be all watch man.
I'm I'm hurt, brother. I can't understand that you watch
somebody just take five dollars away from the Road. Yeah, Bro,
that cout mean. So we just talked about how hype
it is, you know, how like.
Speaker 5 (18:05):
A second life of energy, especially in the first half
of the season.
Speaker 4 (18:08):
So I wouldn't watch either. Man.
Speaker 6 (18:11):
Yeah, I don't know if I could watch. Bro, Like
I'm a little salty. I really don't know if I'm
in the right mental space to watch that. Okay, you
watch somebody take a trophy away, You watch somebody take
a five hundred.
Speaker 4 (18:24):
Thousand dollars away.
Speaker 6 (18:25):
That ain't no, ain't no easy thing to just watch
it continue all like, oh man, this is exciting.
Speaker 5 (18:30):
Yeah, let me root for somebody else. Well, I tell
you who I'm rooted for. I'm room for Houston, I
do like Okay, okay, see, I think that'll be a
good one. And then Lucky, looky, guess who's in the
sim in the semi finals.
Speaker 4 (18:46):
They need to bring you in as a mascot.
Speaker 6 (18:48):
Come home, bro, got it a maskot, a consultant.
Speaker 4 (18:52):
Come on? Uh the coach calling Aldi, they gotta bring
you in and something. Man, call me the coach whisper something.
Speaker 6 (19:00):
Man.
Speaker 5 (19:00):
I talked that said, hey man, you gotta let the
wilder Beast wrong.
Speaker 4 (19:05):
You know what I mean?
Speaker 5 (19:06):
You got to let your giants be giants. And Milwaukee
Bucks turned, you know, turning and around. Yes they are,
they have, they have.
Speaker 4 (19:15):
I mean, I think it's a testament to right with
your dogs.
Speaker 6 (19:20):
Yes, sir, you know what I mean, Sir. You gotta
put trust in those guys. Let them be great at
what they're great at. The reason they are who they
are is because of what they're great at. And I
think you know you're watching, you know, as they've been.
I wouldn't necessarily call it a winning streak, because I'm
not sure exactly.
Speaker 4 (19:37):
What the street together, but they've been winning games.
Speaker 6 (19:41):
And if you look and watching, it's because Dame's playing
good and Nis is playing good, and you know, everybody
else is now filling in and doing their roles. But
those two guys are being the stars that they are,
and it's changed the season around completely for Milwaukee. Here
they are in the final four or put a chance
against the Hawks, who most people thought wouldn't even be there,
(20:04):
you know, with a chance to move on to the
NBA Cup Finals.
Speaker 4 (20:07):
So I got to give him a lot of credit.
Speaker 6 (20:09):
I got to give Doc a lot of credit for
writing the ship d Ham over there on the bench.
Speaker 4 (20:14):
You know, uh, the man in the NBA NBA Cup
he like they.
Speaker 6 (20:21):
Had rolling in the NBA com which takes which takes
me back to last year what I was saying. If
I'm a college I want Darva him in these one
and done situations because the adjustments that he's shown in
these NBA comes from gain the game. Then you come
to those adjustments coming those adjustments in the college. Yeah,
you win the tournament. Is you want to just went
(20:46):
back to college? Man, Bringing Darvon Ham as a head
coach in one of these top programs, I guarantee.
Speaker 4 (20:53):
You you're going to have extreme success.
Speaker 5 (20:55):
You sure, sure, for sure.
Speaker 6 (21:01):
You got to Chuck Oh, Chuck Barkley, damn rantee it
darn Hem in a college, one of these top colleges
in that head coach and see and watch what happens.
Speaker 4 (21:13):
I'm telling you, And then you know what I do.
Speaker 5 (21:17):
Like Atlanta, I start watching more of them, and they
remind me a lot of y'all in the East. They's
just a bad matchup for everybody they play. They play small.
You got the boy Jalen Johnson playing later point forward,
(21:37):
point guard. We got Trey Young who's just impossible to guard.
But I think all the other kids they fit in,
even even the rookie. I think the rookie is finding
his way.
Speaker 6 (21:49):
He's finding his way for sure, and they're not asking
him to do much. You know, they're asking him the
average eleven points a game. Dyson Daniels has stepped down.
Step like he ass in like sixteen points a game,
maybe three and a half steals a game, five rebounds
a game, three assists a game like Dyson Dames is
really stepping up.
Speaker 4 (22:10):
And then I'm gonna tell you the play of who's
taking that team.
Speaker 6 (22:14):
I don't necessarily say to the next level, because they
got a lot of growing to do, but who's made
this team as dangerous as they've been this early in
the season. It's the play of DeAndre Hunter. DeAndre Hunter
come in lottery pick. You know, you kind of see glimpses,
and you know, not all the time. Now you're not
starting to see glimpses. Now you're starting to see him
(22:35):
growing to the player that everybody thought Andre Hunter can
be coming out of Virginia. And he's starting to take
that next step and become a consistent guy every night
shooting the piss out the ball and so Trey Young
is doing what Trey Young does, which is always to
be expected. But I think who's really changed that team,
made that team dangerous is the emergence of DeAndre Hunter
(22:57):
becoming the guy that everyone thought he could be coming
out of virgine Bro.
Speaker 5 (23:01):
I was watching the game and he was calling for
the ball, get into a spot, hitting the shot, and
then turn around back court, back down to court, talking shit.
I was like, Oh, this is a different dude. It's
a different level of confidence. What is he in his
third year?
Speaker 4 (23:19):
Now? Maybe your four or five? Damn for real? Yeah,
time be fine, right whing dude?
Speaker 5 (23:27):
He was like that versatile kind of glue. That's what
they needed if you get him rocking, you know. And
then they got versatile guys who are skilled that can
make plays, which makes Trey Young so much more important.
And it's almost like you can forget about your young
(23:47):
if they play good, and that's the last thing you
want to do, you know what I mean. Sure, he
take a lot of attention. When them dudes start hooting,
you gotta pick your poison, you know.
Speaker 4 (23:58):
What I mean?
Speaker 6 (23:59):
Fact, I said, fact is speaking of trayon. Tray Young
does it to the Knicks again?
Speaker 4 (24:05):
That's crazy. Tray Young owns the New York Knicks.
Speaker 6 (24:09):
Man, he owns the New York Knicks.
Speaker 4 (24:14):
And that man went and kneel down in the.
Speaker 6 (24:17):
Prison polls and gave him the sea level and started
shooting Dice in the middle of the court on the lok.
This man is a minute. He must be stopped. This
man is a minuace in New York City. He keeps
doing it to the Knicks man. Wow, Trayyon, hey bro, Wow.
Speaker 4 (24:38):
They would have to have a go fund me.
Speaker 5 (24:41):
I'm sorry, Young, but if I was playing New York
would have had to go fund me because I'd.
Speaker 6 (24:46):
Have kicked you how.
Speaker 4 (24:49):
To kick him Dice and kicked him?
Speaker 5 (24:52):
Man, Come on, New York, you gotta stop letting Hey dog,
he is he is really a nick killer.
Speaker 6 (24:58):
He is a But here's the thing, though, The exact
reason here's the New York Killer is the Nick Killer
is the same reason why he feel comfortable rolling Dice.
Speaker 4 (25:13):
And knowing nothing ain't gonna happen to him.
Speaker 6 (25:15):
Like they don't have anybody on their team. Oh no,
he ain't. Like we ain't rocking with that. They don't
have nobody on their team that's going to do that.
And that is one of the big problems with.
Speaker 4 (25:27):
The New York Knicks.
Speaker 6 (25:28):
It's like, all right, when it comes down to it,
who's that guy that's going to stop him from doing
with all these shenanigans and put it here to who's
that guy for them? They don't have that, and I
think that's always one of their issues going to be
with these current Knicks.
Speaker 5 (25:45):
That's getting over there, man, Come on, man, ain't nobody
about to be shooting Dice.
Speaker 4 (25:51):
Shooting Dice bro I came here, I'm taking y'all money.
What I'm taking y'all money, I'm going to on'll logo.
So I'm out of here. That's crazy Ice called got antics.
I'm fucking with it. I love it.
Speaker 6 (26:10):
I love it when you own, when you own a
franchise the way he's owned them over the last few years.
Speaker 4 (26:16):
Yeah, ain't nothing they can do. And they hate him
so much, you know what I mean? That villain.
Speaker 5 (26:23):
Nick Yas should have just signed me for that game,
so i'd have broke that Dice game up with a quickness.
Speaker 4 (26:31):
You got to come off that much. I'd have sat
there on my knee too, right in front of come
off that chicken bro. Hey, sach onto Ice.
Speaker 7 (26:48):
Come man, absolutely, yo, before we get to this next
game and your next opponent, you do gotta tell me
what's up with the refs after they heard your comment
from the fans.
Speaker 4 (27:00):
What was that you a man?
Speaker 6 (27:02):
I don't even know if the rough ended up doing anything,
but it's crazy because it was at a part of
the game where I couldn't really entertain him because I
was locked into the game. But I heard him and
I was real close to walking over there and scaring
the ship out of it. I said what he was
going to do, and I was headed over there, but
I'm like, you gotta stay locked in, like you can't
do it right now.
Speaker 4 (27:21):
It's wild. I've said it. I said it for years.
Speaker 6 (27:24):
Bro, Like the NBA kind of empowered these fans to
say what it is they want to say, because I
know as a fan that if, for instance, this guy
caused me to be word, which again I was like,
I told you right in that moment, I'll slap the
shit out of you.
Speaker 4 (27:40):
Man. I will, and I very much so will slap
the ship out of him.
Speaker 6 (27:47):
But just to feel the comfort to say that, like
I'm telling you, if it's any other part in the game,
and not any meaningful game.
Speaker 4 (27:56):
The game would have stopped and I would have got
on it. That's it. That's what really happen.
Speaker 5 (28:00):
If you had a pizza shot, a coffee shot any
other place, you ain't gonna say that, not at.
Speaker 6 (28:07):
All because because you know what comes with that. You
know you gotta back that up. And you wouldn't be
sitting in that seat if you was willing to back
that up. We're not gonna even go there. But like
I said, the NBA empowers these losers to say what
they want because they know that if I say this
and he says something back, he gonna get fined twenty
five grand, just like I'm not sure if I'm gonna
(28:29):
still get fined from it or not, but I really
can care less because it's very clear, Like you hear
the disrespect everyone in the world, here's the disrespect.
Speaker 4 (28:38):
And if you think I'm just gonna be like, oh,
that ain't never gonna happen. So it is what it is.
Speaker 6 (28:45):
But stopping powering these losers and if they know they
can get their ass kicked, they won't say that.
Speaker 5 (28:50):
Man, they need to get their ass kicked out of
the game because it mess everything up for the fans
like I like the fans who who boo and hate
and talk shit. But the ones who crossed the line
and know they crossing the line, you fucking up the
game absolutely, like you coming.
Speaker 4 (29:08):
There with a howl in gin, you know what I mean.
Speaker 5 (29:10):
Like I remember when I was in when we played
in the playoffs in Utah, and it was this little
white girl and she was behind the basket.
Speaker 4 (29:21):
She had to be like eight, nine, maybe ten years old,
and she was going.
Speaker 1 (29:29):
Baron Davis goal, Hey don the whole game, that's right,
talking myself every time I shot a freak out, I
was all this, this little girl in the basket, Baron David,
fuck you, fuck you.
Speaker 5 (29:48):
And I didn't hear nobody else, but I can hear
what she was saying. So I wasn't really chipping, but
that kind of threw me off. Like, damn, dude, this
little girl I really hate.
Speaker 4 (30:01):
It's crazy because they throw you off. They came to
the game.
Speaker 5 (30:04):
They was in the car like, all right, you're gonna
sit here and you're gonna say after you the Baron
Davis the whole night and worked.
Speaker 6 (30:12):
Imagine teaching imagine teaching your kid to be a heckler.
Imagine teaching your kid to show up to someone else's
job to be a heckler.
Speaker 4 (30:22):
Man, you you teaching your kid to be a loser
from the beginning, oh Man. Shout out.
Speaker 5 (30:28):
Speaking of that, shout out to my dog, Mad Mules
rest in peace. He was one of my trainers. He
was a professional heckler to the common stories and people.
And I was like, bro, why would you tell me
something like that. So there's people like that out here.
Speaker 6 (30:50):
Man, It's like, you know what this is a profession is,
But let them learn that as they grow. Don't teach
you all night.
Speaker 4 (30:57):
That's what I gotta be for you, just because that's
that's what it is for you as a parent.
Speaker 6 (31:01):
Don't teach you now, keep it peace. Don't teach you now.
You old to be a heckler aka.
Speaker 4 (31:09):
Oh Man.
Speaker 5 (31:10):
Next up is the Dallas Mavericks. The last time y'all
playing that was out of the game. They got one
of the most incredible back courts in the NBA. Talk
about you know Dallas, the way they playing, but most importantly,
when you're going up against the dynamic of Luca and
Kyrie and what that means.
Speaker 6 (31:30):
They're playing really well. Obviously they had Luca go through
an injury earlier in the season. They actually started finding
the rhythm with Luca out, and then Luca came back
and they continue to trend in the right direction.
Speaker 4 (31:40):
You know, when you have Luca and Kyrie on the court,
there's just problems that come with that.
Speaker 6 (31:45):
You got two guys that can get a bucket anytime
they want, that's wanting to draw so much attention and
open up other guys.
Speaker 4 (31:53):
You know that it makes that team, you know, a
very difficult team to guard. You see, like, okay, see
the other day, it was like, we're not letting Luca
be the We're gonna make everybody else beat us, and
they have some success with it. Ultimately, when you're facing
guys like that, that's kind of decision you usually have
to make. Are we gonna make Luca and Kyrie beat us?
Or are we gonna do all we can to take
(32:13):
those two guys out and make everybody else beat us?
Speaker 6 (32:16):
And that's kind of what it boils down to. Everybody
have their theory. I don't think one theory is right
or wrong. I think you know, you put that theory
in place, and then who's the guys that's going to
go out there, compete and execute it. You know, when
you're guarden to Luca. I don't think people ever realize
how big Luca is. He's six ' eight and he
can see over everybody, got it, extremely great passer. You
(32:41):
can't just guard him to stop him from scoring. You
also have to guard him to try to take away
his passing angles as well. And it's just a tough
thing to do, right, Like you don't want to overreact
on his drive to the rim because once he if
you overreact and he stepped back, he's six, Hey, you
can't contest a shot. But if you stay even with him,
he's just going to keep going to keep you on
(33:02):
his hip and he can finish because he has such
great size.
Speaker 4 (33:05):
So Luca is always a tough guard and guarding him.
Speaker 6 (33:08):
And then I always just talk about Kyrie and garden Kyrie,
like I always speak about it more so from the
help position, Like when you're helping on Kyrie, you got
to help so early because he's so dangerous at every
scoring position on the basketball court. Where at every level,
Kyrie is extremely dangerous at every scoring level on the
(33:30):
basketball court, you kind of have to be over more
over aggressive on your help with Kyrie because he can
score from anywhere whereas most guys.
Speaker 4 (33:39):
You're like, yo, we don't need to get the aggressive
till he get here.
Speaker 6 (33:42):
Kyrie is everywhere on the court because he is an
elite scorer at every level on the basketball court.
Speaker 4 (33:49):
No offensive deficiency, zero, neither whatever.
Speaker 6 (33:52):
That's rareo as crazy as this sound beat. Luca probably
has more offensive deficiency than Kyrie. Kyrie, and that's crazy
to say because Luca is one of the most skilled,
one of the best players we've ever seen. But like
Luca doesn't catch and shoot as well as Kyrie catches
and shoots right like Lucas shoot the piss out the ball.
Speaker 4 (34:13):
We all know that.
Speaker 6 (34:14):
But he doesn't catch and shoot as well as Kyrie
catch and shoot. Kyrie literally does not have a deficiency
on the offensive end. It's crazy, man.
Speaker 4 (34:22):
Also, what do you think about the potential of Aj
the Bonsa? I like him and then he going to
b Yu? Crazy man, b Yu got the number one
player in this class. Welcome to the Nil. Welcome to
the Welcome to the Nil.
Speaker 6 (34:43):
Where b Yu can get a kid like Aj Debonsa
to come there for a year, because he'll be there
for a year Uh, there's reports that he's been paid
somewhere around a seven million dollar mark.
Speaker 4 (34:56):
Havn m YEA more power to college, bro.
Speaker 5 (35:01):
If I can give players seven million, man, let me
go do some recruitment.
Speaker 6 (35:06):
Listen, seven million dollars to go to BYU is insane.
Speaker 4 (35:11):
What is viewed as success though?
Speaker 6 (35:13):
Like?
Speaker 4 (35:14):
Right, you know what I'm saying, Like, what's the marker
for success?
Speaker 6 (35:18):
Like, so you pay him seven million dollars essentially for
six months to go to the tournament, which, by the way,
shout out to AJ brother, you just made the biggest
bag you're going to make in your life.
Speaker 4 (35:29):
Per second and per hour.
Speaker 6 (35:32):
Because to get seven million dollars for about five months
of work, it's absolutely insane. Now, granted this kid is
going to have like that with the potential that he has,
he'll have incredible potential, but seven million dollars to go
to a college campus for five months and not even
have to win, like they don't have to.
Speaker 4 (35:51):
I don't know what success is viewed ask for them,
but what are the measurements? But I know it's not
win a championship.
Speaker 6 (36:01):
And so to go somewhere and guy get seven million
dollars or whatever it is around that and not have
to win the championship. That brother hit the lick man.
Shout out to the young fella. Yea, you know, he
doing big things. I've heard a lot about him. I've heard,
you know, just he plays winning basketball, which I love
and so shout out to the young fella.
Speaker 4 (36:21):
Get your bad. Yeah, I heard. He's good. He's humble.
You know, he's presentable.
Speaker 5 (36:27):
You know coach Jason Crow said when they played Inglewood,
you know he thanked them for the opportunity.
Speaker 4 (36:33):
You know what I mean, He knew, he knows the players,
know who people are.
Speaker 5 (36:38):
So it's like, man, you want to get you want
to get the money to somebody that's going to be responsible.
And this kid, he's definitely gonna be responsible for his
talents and what he bringing.
Speaker 4 (36:48):
That energy he bringing me absolutely.
Speaker 6 (36:50):
I think when you look at the makeup of how
he's going about his business and all the things that
you just said, which I've been hearing as well about him,
he looks to be on a Lebron James like path
where he got things in place around him, where they
have a system, they're not stepping outside of that system,
and he's building himself up there, building him up to
(37:12):
be the face of a lot of things and just
knowing how to carry himself being the number one guy
for the last two years and carrying that with so
much grace like Lebron James, I think is uh, it's
something that I admired. So shout out to the young fella,
keep doing your thing. It's super dope to see and refreshing,
(37:34):
uh to hear about that type of professionalism and a
young guy who's coming in and saying, no, I'm gonna
take on all that. So so oftentimes now you got
these young guys want to challenge the system. You know
what I'm saying, I want to challenge I can do
this my way and do this this way. I was
just about to say, like, like I need to be
(37:56):
this way. Like nah, man, stuff sells and it looks
it's a certain way period and doing it your cool
last way.
Speaker 4 (38:02):
It ain't worked for nobody. It ain't gonna work for you.
So it's good to see a young fella like this
but kind of with that old school.
Speaker 6 (38:10):
Mentality of doing things, and you know the amount of
success that he's gonna have in doing things that way,
it'll it'll benefit them in the end. So shout out
to the young fella, and also shout out to y'all.
That's a rap. Oh, by the way, make sure that
y'all check out these interviews that we got coming over
the next couple of weeks. We got some great interviews
