going on. Let's get it to it. Man, taking to you, baby,

(02:54):
Let's get.

Speaker 4 (02:54):
It certain fast, certain certified, certify certain, certain certain.

Speaker 1 (03:13):
It's a green summer. Yeah, we built differently. You ain't
watching the games like I'm watching again. You're outside, We're alive.
It's fluid. That's when you stop the production and we
go back to blue water. I'm coming to the Little
wheell uh sin oh ship. You going to the Little
wheel Show tonight? Yeah, that's gonna be cracking. Matter of fact,

(03:36):
we're gonna need a certified camera in there for that
for the first thirty seconds to kick us out of that.
Shout the loutle wheel man. His ship turned to this
party boy and the spank they killed that ship. Yeah
they get that in. I like this show too. I'm
gonna go fuck with them to night. Oh that's what's up? Man,
shout to that. Yeah, that's what's up. Let's get it baby,

(03:56):
all right.

Speaker 5 (03:56):
First thing I want to ask you about the Houston
Rockets winners rolling seven straight.

Speaker 6 (04:05):
Early.

Speaker 1 (04:05):
Man, he was man, oh no, ain't nothing about it.
He was rolling with you when I asked you about
Houston Memphis. And they're young though, what I'm saying, that's
what I'm saying. They could get popped. That is what
I'm saying. They good, but they can get popped by
like Golden State on the Lakes. That's you know, can
get popped. They get popped right right, ship. That's true though,

(04:32):
That's what I'm saying. But they gotta see golda. If
they gotta see Golden State first round, I gotta go
with the Golden State. Are you going with experience?

Speaker 2 (04:39):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (04:39):
Yeah, I gotta go with the experience because when the
whites get bright, when you gotta put pressure on them
young boys, you gotta make him push them to six
or seven games where he's like, all right, we're gonna
push all the deep waters and y'all gonna feel this pressure.
Y'all gonna tighten up starting right.

Speaker 3 (04:55):
You know, them new teams when they get to playoffs, man,
and they get something taken away, you really see a
major drop off.

Speaker 1 (05:01):
You know what I'm saying. Game slows down.

Speaker 3 (05:03):
You really see the value of high pace, right, because
when you get to the playoff, things stow down and
things are in the seventies and eighties or no, that's
that's that's a phone booth.

Speaker 1 (05:12):
Time you get to game three, win it brother scouting reporters,
out scout report. It don't even work no more.

Speaker 3 (05:19):
Matter of fact, everybody always puts in two new plays
during the playoffs anyway. But yeah, I'm eager to see
you know, who hasn't who's been quiet this ship. We
ain't really talked about John Moran, man.

Speaker 1 (05:31):
Man because he played that he don't play. He hurt
his arms. He's been hurt, right, ny I think you shoulder,
but he in and out the line. So this is
what I'm saying. You can't really evaluate those seats. So
those are scary teams to me, you know, teams when
you ain't seeing them full throttle. One thing I love
about playoffs, bros. It's fore throttle.

Speaker 3 (05:48):
Everybody's gonna be up and they know, you know, if
it is some some some games taking off is for
some precautionary stuff. But Draymond said, the best man, we
are in game sixty something, and everybody's gonna be hurt.
Everybody's gonna be feeling it, and these are the dog
days of the league. March is probably the hardest.

Speaker 1 (06:05):
Month, would you say, out of all the months, because
you starting to treat these games like playoff games, because
you right now it's a lot of jockey and going
on saying March.

Speaker 3 (06:14):
Is the most difficult, and think about what March means
if you have a fast month.

Speaker 1 (06:19):
Sore, you got a jam toll and then you but
you got every game means something when you're.

Speaker 3 (06:24):
In that rage forty five and going into these next
twenty years for the month of March, man, that's man.
March is a It's hard, but it's really re energizing too,
because you're like, all right, this is like that stretch run.

Speaker 1 (06:36):
It's like when you run a marathon and you just
you in it. I ain't never ran a marathon, but
you know when you run a long distance and shit,
but you know the end is coming, you get that
extra little juice at mindset, that little juice. I'm saying,
all right, I'm saying this to say that those teams
like Houston Likelymphis. Those a scary team, right, they are,
like they probable, but bro, you don't want to play them.

(06:57):
And we haven't seen John Jerry Jay. We ain't seeing
that whole thing together. And you know what I'm saying, Bang,
that's know what I'm saying. Houston, Memphis teams like that,
thought they got the caliber guys that can beat you.
Those are the scary teams to me.

Speaker 5 (07:09):
But John morantonly played forty three games, missed his last two.
So the hamstring, he had a shoulder thing. He said,
you know he got some more good basketball to come.
I think still the five seed all the time.

Speaker 1 (07:20):
That's what I'm saying. You don't you don't want to
see no Memphis. You know what I'm saying. There's some
teams you don't want to see. I think the West
is so wide open, so it ain't no, I.

Speaker 5 (07:29):
Mean two to five separated by one.

Speaker 1 (07:31):
Yeah. Yeah. And then don't let like I know, they
ain't really been playing well this year, Phoenix, let them
slide into the play and then slide into the playoffs
like you know, anything can happen. You know, it's too inconsistent. Man,
they don't even they don't even like feel like playing
some nice that game rust the Lakers, I saw that, man,
k Man.

Speaker 3 (07:51):
Yeah, it's time, bro, I'm telling you they having story,
they having conversations behind the door, Like yeah, already it's
already just already written.

Speaker 1 (07:58):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (07:59):
Next thing I want to ask you guys about stephen
A said this and it caught some traction online and
curious what you guys think. You said, Austin Reeves is
currently the best third option in the league. So if
you guys look at the third options surround the NBA,
who do you think are kind of the top the
top guys.

Speaker 1 (08:12):
Well, I got porzingis right now, the top third guy.
You put him behind Jake Brown Brown second or first,
it's Tatum Brown, porzingis right Derek White, So you can
put off It's like I'm taking Porzingis over Reeves. I mean,
that's what we're talking about. You are so And then

(08:34):
it's somebody else. I think Gordon Gordon or Jamal Murray.

Speaker 3 (08:39):
Jamal Murray is the second best player. Yeah, joker and
dear Gordon and Gordon just had like faulty. Yeah, I
like Gordon.

Speaker 1 (08:50):
It's somebody else that I had.

Speaker 5 (08:53):
Uh, you could say Mobley or Garland Norman.

Speaker 1 (08:55):
Yeah, yeah, Garland Garland. Yeah, Mobley is the second best player. Yeah,
it goes tired of Garland mobiley Man Mobley impacted more
than Guardless, I didn't say that, you know what I'm saying.
I'm saying, I'm like, you gassed Mobley and I'm giving
him giving it too. But in the high in the

(09:16):
in the realm of how Money was an All Star
this year Garland was Toland won and All Start this
year he wasn't Mobley made it. Yeah, So that's who
sent the leap after your worst. He took the lead.
That's what I'm saying, lead to the second best player
I had.

Speaker 3 (09:33):
I had the guards in front of that though. When
you said that, that made sense. So he has made
the con Yeah. So then Garland is your best. I
mean Garlish your third best.

Speaker 1 (09:41):
That that's killer too. That's killer too, is what I'm saying.
You can associate the DeAndre and Amen about Amen from Houston?
How about you? I'm taking a man, yeah, man, I'm
taking him down the reason his top five as third as.

Speaker 5 (09:59):
A you got JDub however you want to person, however
you want to slape.

Speaker 3 (10:04):
Yeah, but Reefs is in that top five, and you
know what, he's been activated. I told Peters man he
out here thinking like he him, like I can get
a bucket on whoever I got the ice shold hey,
rep call it man, he found me like he and.

Speaker 5 (10:15):
You got and Lebron wasn't All Star by the way,
Yeah they got three Yeah, yeah, he was at a
three point contest.

Speaker 1 (10:25):
Maybe Lotado or did he make it? Ultimately, you don't
matter he played the game. I mean when it was
seven on seven on seven, I don't know who damn
they playing out here?

Speaker 5 (10:42):
So who would you say is the best if we
had to just pick.

Speaker 3 (10:46):
All and Mobile because they impact you know what I'm saying,
probably like yeah, because they was all they You know,
he can say you can say mobiley are or do
because they was all stars.

Speaker 1 (10:59):
Out of all of them, they was all stars. Bucket though,
But Austin Reeves is right there, Like that's where you
want him to be. You want him to be your
third best player on a great team. Like that's a
good spot for him, third or fourth best player. That's
Ostar Reves or who Norman Norman Powe? Uh oh, that's

(11:21):
a good one. I like Norman Powe because well, I
don't know, man, Yeah, yeah, I like I like Alsin
Reeves playmaking ability though he get he off the dribble.
He can make He can make plays. You know, Powell
is more of a score athletic defend, But dude can
make plays too, Bucket. That's what I like. He got

(11:42):
a little more versatility in this offense.

Speaker 5 (11:46):
From undrafted to averaging the dub on the Lakers.

Speaker 1 (11:48):
Pretty cool man. He underpay now to get it. He
already signed to get it. Time to get it.

Speaker 5 (11:57):
Next thing, I want to ask you guys about the
Warriors and Knicks played Saturday. We saw some like Towns
and Draymond kind of dust up a little bit, talking
back and forth to each other, and then after the
game the Knicks lose, Towns kind of storms off the
court immediately, and everyone on the Knicks kind of hangs
around to tap up Draymond and talk to him. I'm
curious what you guys would think from that perspective of

(12:19):
a teammate kind of having an issue with the player
and then them kind of showing love to the player
after the game.

Speaker 3 (12:27):
Like I used to be in the middle of, Like
I'm friends with q Rich and obviously you know, Pee's
my man, So it used to always be like a
weird when you are friends with two people that don't
get along or play at a certain whatever.

Speaker 1 (12:44):
You know what I'm saying, Like it goes back to
the Dallas Jones. I will bring this up because it
wasn't like if I'm being one hunted, if I said
it was blue, if I said it was green on
the sky yo use used to ride.

Speaker 3 (13:04):
That's what I'm saying. I expect for Cat to be
upset when everybody come in the locker room. You know
what I'm saying. But again, you know, me and Bro
we cool, but I understand y'all had a difference. I
ain't hang out with him.

Speaker 1 (13:17):
I just say what up?

Speaker 3 (13:18):
So I understand both ways, Like when you when you
get into it and it'd be really whatever and you
emotional about it. You're in the moment, it's only two
when you sit back two hours later, or you're not
chopped about it where you you know, reflect on it.
But you know, man, the game is full of emotions.
And when you in the game, bro, you know you
you're so caught up in it and it's going. And

(13:38):
then on top of it, when you lose losers, like
you know what I'm saying, it's like damn, you know,
And then I think he was slick at the end.

Speaker 1 (13:45):
I think J.

Speaker 3 (13:46):
Marm was real slick with his interviews and how he
just finessed it all. So yeah, man, yeah, I get.

Speaker 1 (13:52):
Both the fire fire with fire, bro, how you feeling if.

Speaker 3 (13:55):
You just got into it then you see me a
Q rich are like, yeah, yeah, I'm gonna call you.

Speaker 1 (13:58):
Yeah, you know what I'm saying. First, I'm gonna be
on the best like we ain't dapping them after the game.
It take your captain and say something like that.

Speaker 5 (14:05):
You would set the tone then people you were.

Speaker 1 (14:07):
Like, we're not shaking, like we're not doing all that
tonight because that's a normal thing in the league. Now,
y'all play. When I lose, y'all shot listen when I lose,
we ain't tapping them today. It's just today you just
like we ain't dapping and everybody was on it like okay,
I used to do that anyway, Like we ain't tapping
today like a team thing.

Speaker 3 (14:24):
That's what I'm saying. Not understand, That's what I'm saying.
When I said, hey man, and and then go to
go back to it because I keep poking at it
when he that was the key hold like he is
his body who said and I was like, man, she
is you know what I'm saying. So he was like
he didn't want no smell.

Speaker 1 (14:43):
I didn't think I heard that. I was like, he
gave me ship. I didn't think I was coming a
ticket because he was. I think you're about to get
a second tight don't give them to the side. I
was losing at that point.

Speaker 6 (14:57):
We was He sed I didn't even get he kicked
out the game.

Speaker 1 (15:00):
He was on the air and he got hurt that.
I was like, he didn't say it. Then I started
getting said because you ain't running, he ain't right. He
stood up yours like I had to come over that.
I asked you watch out, get off my You know
what I'm saying. You didn't come with the same energy
I was hot. I was like, I feel that right right.

(15:22):
I didn't want to get kicked out. He about to
get a second tech lyon, about to get a second
teg or was going on shield man, you know what
I'm saying, about to get a second text.

Speaker 3 (15:31):
I'm like, no, man, ain't riding by myself. Then he
comes doe out like shout to nine my dog. That's
what I'm saying. So I get it, but you can't
you know, especially if guys are real friends, you know
what I'm saying, or you know, if if you're in
the middle, I get it. You got to keep the
same energy and then whatever you're doing as a team,

(15:53):
you do it as a team. You don't do it
by yourself.

Speaker 1 (15:56):
But I get it. I felt I feel him on
that though, you know, it is what it is. I
think they created a little you know, little low key ribbery.

Speaker 3 (16:05):
Gotta go win though, you gotta be somebody but the
Warriors on the Knicks. And then Steph Curry, I think
he and I lost in the in the Madison Squad
like one.

Speaker 1 (16:13):
Time, like he like, has he ever lost in this
Masson squad? I think he got a perfect record in
that bitch or something, right, I don't let twenty and
you know, I'm leads here is twenty and oh he's
like fifteen and oh in Masson squad or something something crazy.

Speaker 3 (16:26):
That's a crazy number. But yeah, man, I think the
I think I think the man look. I like the
game and ship. The gaming ship is a big part
of the game that I think no one talks about.
It was you can actually in years past, man, you
had games where guys is already twelve and one, twelve
and one. That's crazy, you hear me?

Speaker 1 (16:45):
Yeah, the one who has a better record.

Speaker 5 (16:46):
Than that in the arena and it's only lost is
a decade ago.

Speaker 1 (16:49):
See that's crazy. See.

Speaker 3 (16:51):
So yeah, I think all that is good for the game.
The gaming ship needs to come back to the game
because that's a real thing. That's a real thing. That's
a real thing that the game.

Speaker 1 (16:59):
Has to have.

Speaker 3 (17:01):
You know, energy and vobs be exchanging and and and
know that. Yeah, he all a little a little shaky
and uh that that that that's part of the game.

Speaker 1 (17:08):
Bro.

Speaker 3 (17:09):
Did you see Scouting, George and Messiah, Yeah, I did
see some of that dog that was West fourth to
his finance right there.

Speaker 1 (17:16):
Boy, Scout had to go.

Speaker 3 (17:18):
Scout had to go Brooklyn, he had to go you
know what I'm saying. Scout had to go Linden on
some I was. I knew George is gonna have.

Speaker 1 (17:27):
Some problems though, because Scalt is for people who don't
know Scalabrini other than p he loves one on one
Scalt right now, if you called him, would get up,
put his stuff on just to.

Speaker 3 (17:39):
Play one on one, you know what I'm saying. Like
he was he won't smoke at all times. And it
don't matter who you are. He's played strong, slick bag.

Speaker 1 (17:50):
You know. You know what I'm saying. He will he
will he you on one day you will see him
go one on woman baby, one on one with Perk,
try to go one on woman Pete and then talk
shit to Ray.

Speaker 3 (18:00):
And then after the third shot he was like, Okay, cool,
I'm done. You know what I'm saying, Like, he won't smoke.

Speaker 1 (18:05):
We played, we play, uh you know in the summer time,
I got I got ticket, yep, I got no I
want to like he like he giving me every you
know what I'm saying, like, Yeah, So when I saw that,
I knew. I knew George was in trouble. Want some
good content. It was a good, great content. I thought
it was great for for basketball, especially outdoor basketball, like

(18:29):
like blacktop man, we don't even do that no more.
We need to bring them back. You know what he said,
He was like, I'm closer to Lebron, I mean the
Skoal than you are to me. Didn't he beat him
like eleven z rollers?

Speaker 5 (18:40):
Yeah, he skunked them eleven zero. There was obviously some
fouling back and forth.

Speaker 1 (18:44):
Yeah, that's our game. It was our doors.

Speaker 3 (18:47):
And when Scout got bid, you forget Scout six eights
too foudy. When he put them things up there, he's
still you know, man, I knew George is in trouble.

Speaker 1 (18:57):
And then when I saw how Scout was putting Scout,
Out showed up with Scout showed up with what's happening,
what's happening? What we're doing here? Showing up? Listen, when
you go to somebody else's part, you go to Dyke, Man,
you go to West Fourth, the Roger's part, here go man, Springfield, anywhere.

(19:19):
You gotta come with some presence or the locals gonna
win you out of that. Who is this? Yeah? I
got next? Who are you? I'm next? Me let me
get you you yeah you. He came back there with
the right energy. He can't. Then George tried to sub
He tried the sun. I didn't see that man.

Speaker 3 (19:37):
Listen, his man was on the side, damn, Jeff was
look go look this up. It was a man on
the side, Jeff. He looked like a younger version of George.
I guess George was tired and he said, come on, Jeff,
I need you Jeff was looking like, I don't want
none of that.

Speaker 1 (19:53):
He was like, Jeff, come on, man, I need you.
Then the rear was playing.

Speaker 3 (19:57):
They was playing the David Bannon music to it like,
oh man, they Jeff didn't want no smoke. I'm sorry.
He hit it with I'm sorry. Shout to them though,
darg that was great content. Man, I knew George's in
trouble though, George, stick to them, Stick to them, playground guys, man,

I want to ask you, is about the Celtics and
the fourth quarter. This season, they're twenty second in points scoring,
twenty first in field goals, number one in turnovers, in
twenty three in free throw temps. Celtics fans be concerned
about these numbers come playoffs.

Speaker 1 (22:11):
Well, you're concerned about any of the things in the
fourth quarter with the with the Celtics, Yeah, I really am.
I mean, yeah, just just the way they plan. You know,
they shooting at an all time high threes right now,
and you know, sometimes they come back to bite you,
like the other night when they shot them sixty three three.
They shot sixty three threes and it was just like

(22:31):
came back to by them. Because if they're not falling,
then you allow teams to make a run on you,
you know, and then it's demoralizing. When you miss, they
come down score you miss, they come down free throws.
Like sometimes you gotta start, like when you get a lead,
you gotta start throwing body blows. Get to the rack,
get to the line, you know. You know what I'm saying.
That's when you start throwing body blows. When you just
start it just started mentally wearing on the team. But

(22:53):
like when you settling and missing, and when them throwings
ain't falling because that they're like like your shot that
ain't guaranteed every night, you know it, Come and go shooting,
you know, make our miss league like they say it is.
And so it's a little concern. I think at the
fourth quarter, you gotta kind of find a way to
impose your wheel by like trying to grind it out.
Get some easy ones, get on the break, get to

(23:15):
the line. You know. I think you know, it's a
fine line with the threes and the good shots. For
the most part, they take good shots all day shot.
But sometimes you don't have to settle, you know.

Speaker 3 (23:25):
I think two p their style is a lot of drawing,
kicking show, meaning that they're getting into the lane, playmate,
blah blah blah. And then when I was I want
to ask you to before I answered, do you think
it's rhythm? Do you think that it's so that we're
shooting so many threes that this is you know what?
Damn if we do, Damn if we don't, Because when
they do hit the threes, it looks unbelievable and they
usually blow your ass out. I'm talking about two guys

(23:47):
having forty two thirty. You know what I'm saying, it'd
be like one thirty one forty come shit, right when
they really when they hit them threes and you in
the random threes, it's over.

Speaker 1 (23:55):
I'm hit you with a flurry blows. That's really what
it looked like, right.

Speaker 3 (23:59):
But when they not hitting and how you close out
the game, it's kind of the question you think that's
a habit just because they're like, damn if we do,
damn if we don't. And you hang your hat on
now and you won like that, that's what I'm she, she,
That's what I'm trying to say, and then they thinking
all the thing it takes is for you to hear it.
Then I'm here on me see one go in. Like

(24:20):
when I'm saying them keep shooting and keep shooting, they
do not abort the mission. They either gonna kill you
with a bunch and it's gonna be a bunch of
you know what I'm saying, or it's not and they're
gonna hit.

Speaker 1 (24:31):
Targan said they're gonna hit damn, or it's not. They
shot sixty out of ninety shots. But listen, okay, the
night when that shit going right, if you're in trouble
if that's who they are. So you gotta have a
plan to where if it's not, we gotta recognize that
it's not.

Speaker 3 (24:47):
And then here we go. Let's get to the cup.
Let's get back to playmaking, because sometimes I think in
the third quarter you're fatigued.

Speaker 1 (24:52):
I just a lot of that dog motherfucker be selling,
Like I'll see something where he could have got pump
faith and got him in the ad. The guy already
running at you. You that's the that's the first sign
to go straight to the cup, right right? Man? Here, wait,
let them go by and try to get the tray off.
You feel with the way teams respect them on defense
and running out at them, there should be more opportunities

(25:14):
at the real That's why I'm trying to set out
because like if you've got a Nationhoot team, you ain't
closing out all the way, no, you know, but like
teams is trying to run the Celtics off the line.
Everyone opportunity you should be getting more from saying so,
you know. So that's that's how to be a fine
line too. That's i Q two though, and that's when
coaches bring teams in and then when we have tape,
we go over that. Hey listen, and then guess what

(25:34):
fourth quarter when I'm in the huddle, I'm suggesting that
let's make sure we get to the cup. Let's not
let's not.

Speaker 3 (25:39):
Settle we were up twenty because they're not lost some
leads in the second half. So that's what's worrying. You know,
you got to have something to where, you know, what,
how do we finish games off? And how do we
finish games off to the point where you know we're
not we're up.

Speaker 1 (25:53):
There's no way.

Speaker 3 (25:54):
If you're the Celtics, you up twenty something, and it's
the league. It happens because you're still playing great players.
But bro, most of the time, when you up twenty something, you're.

Speaker 1 (26:02):
Supposed to clean. You're supposed to you're supposed to win
that every time, every time, every time. I don't care
who great team. So I'm saying, yes, they.

Speaker 5 (26:10):
Shoot basically forty eight a game. They lead the league,
five more than the second most, which is the Chicago Bulls.
They shoot thirty seven percent from three, and that's still
in the top ten shooting.

Speaker 1 (26:19):
Yeah, so that's who they are. That's who they are,
you know, And that's what how they want. That's their
bus off. And then what you don't see in that
they turn around they d ass up, you feel me,
That's what I'm trying to say. They turn around, and
then what you don't see in none of those stats
that you just read out, Nate, is that when they
turn around, they zig zag you ninety four feet and
they switch it and everybody you know, like, nah, that's

(26:41):
not even you know. So I think from the idea
of playing two way actually exhausts them so much that
by the time they get to the fourth quarter, Man,
think about three they think about that three quarters of
just raining threes and then turn the back around.

Speaker 3 (26:56):
And then guarding you. Oh man, that's man, that's that's
hard to do that. Yeah, that's very hard.

Speaker 5 (27:02):
They led the league in threes last year forty two
and a half last year, but numbers across the board
on three point attempts up just across the lead.

Speaker 3 (27:08):
Wait till the playoffs coming. They push their oxygen in
the building in there, but they might break throughs that
they might break the record. Ain't no, Mike, they gonna
break the record and the season listen, playoffs come. I'm
gonna specting the record for most threes in.

Speaker 5 (27:19):
The Sea, it would probably be the Rockets in twenty
seventeen eighteen.

Speaker 3 (27:22):
But I have to look at up or the Kings
or something. Kings had Bobby Jackson's SHAKOVI y'all them remember, No,
none of them teams were shooting like that. No, no, no, no, no,
you're right, they weren' shooting at this rate. It's gotta
be a team past two seventeen to.

Speaker 1 (27:35):
Team or it might have been like maybe the subject
broke it last year. Yeah, when you guys hear about
everyone's saying the three ball makes the game boring, what's
the big difference if you move in two feet right?
Two is something more?

Speaker 3 (27:49):
So when you hear people say that the three ball
is boring the game. As as players, you can speak
for yourself. I'm gonna go first. But it's a set
of so in the game. Paul knew this. Paul can
take a three whenever he wanted to. Three is the most,
is the longest, It's probably the most difficult, right and

(28:11):
and and it's a it's a very it's a very
hard shot. So when you see somebody sit back there
when they have the ability to get closer which is
that's the whole thing of the game, to be closer
to the basket. People look at taking a three as
being lazy. To get a too, it's hard because the
coaser you get to the basket, you gotta have a

(28:32):
bag to get there.

Speaker 1 (28:33):
You just don't get the walk by the guy. So
to get to a two, a god give you a three.
To get a two, you gotta have some work. And
then to get to the ring, you gotta have some
real work. You hear me, I'm talking about Picasso, your brush,
your man, your stroke gotta be a and you gotta die,
you understand. And then guess what what if.

Speaker 3 (28:52):
This guy's his only job is to stop you, you
know what kind of then you got to turn into
this you understand, you got to turn into something like
like when you got some other other you feel me.
So in this whole thing where people saying the three
ball is laziest because you don't have to work for
the three. I can come down, ah and then soon
as you step back trackball and I can do that

(29:13):
out of ten times ten times. But to come down
and get you and then hesit you and get you
to come back up and the cross you and you
get to the company, you gotta wrap.

Speaker 1 (29:21):
It around him. What I mean, you know how hard
this month man, he'll get to the feet till line.
I see it, pee head man to be over here. Look,
if you have a glasses gads like this right on
test now pulling the man closed down, leave that truth
Like boy, you good? He's like, yeah, I'm good. Like
those new five tens had the feet the wine you
gotta regather.

Speaker 3 (29:41):
Those are real seconds. I say that to say that
when you work for tools, bro, tools are real money.

Speaker 1 (29:46):
You get those money.

Speaker 3 (29:48):
That's real money. Got three ball, it's lazy. If the
three ball, if the three ball was today, it'll have
all types of layers on it. You understand, because it's
that lazy. You ain't working for nothing. It's just sitting
back and cumulating straight up. And that that that's my
analogy on the three ball of people's perception on it. Yeah,
I agree, it's a lazy shot.

Speaker 5 (30:09):
So most threes in the season thirteen hundred and sixty
three by the Warriors twenty two to twenty three season.

Speaker 1 (30:15):
They lost that year. So let me say this too.

Speaker 5 (30:17):
Number two is the Celtics from last season. So let
me say this they'll the Celtics will get it this year.

Speaker 1 (30:22):
But if you hitting that mother, if you hitting the
three ball, wars because so let me say this. I'm
gonna tell you. I'm gonna give you an analogy of
what made the three ball beautiful.

Speaker 3 (30:37):
You had Clay Thompson, you had Steph Curry, and you
had all those shooters.

Speaker 1 (30:44):
Bro. You remember the famous Christmas joint when they got
all the guys shooting and then starting off Steph jingle
bells at it. You know what made that dope? Everybody
made their shot, even if they didn't. I'm just say it.
What made it dope was that when you have a
team full of shooters, guess what that Guess when they

(31:05):
had Kad Clay, guess what. Everybody came. I came to
see the show. I came to see this bitch, rain threes.
That's what we So when you are built the rain threes,
guess what. That's what I came for. Give them a popcorn? Man,
this shit about so the three ball could be sexy
and they can also be.

Speaker 4 (31:25):
Right.

Speaker 1 (31:25):
You feel me.

Speaker 3 (31:26):
When the team is built to shoot threes, you come
for that show. You don't want to necessarily see a
team like Utah who's built off physicality, and when they're
gonna file you hard and on on offense, they're gonna
try to outrun you and shit.

Speaker 1 (31:39):
And then you come here and they trying to play
at Golden State, right. See, it's a bunch of players
watching other teams and he like, damn, how you getting
that all? Man? I'm gonna do that. Man, look at
he he just came down. So it's a bunch of
that going on. Guys breaking the offense, play call. He
might just break the office, come down shoot the three,
and they just played twenty four seconds of defense and
said that's the more. So that's what I'm saying.

Speaker 3 (32:01):
You not only do you kill King's team spirit, but
nobody wants to play with a guy like that, feel me,
And that's repetitive. So when I'm sitting up pill watching it.
When when it's sexy, it's sexuy because the teams that
are built for the threes are built Every team.

Speaker 1 (32:14):
Is not built to shoot a million or sixty three threes.

Speaker 3 (32:17):
And you know what I'm saying. So that's that's that's
what we're looking at. Teams that are actually built to
shoot threes. Man, it's sexy.

Speaker 1 (32:24):
We see Damn Clay had thirty seven in the quarter man,
dad man, you see where he shot that from? Yeah,
not some team that used to you know, throwing it
into Joe and the Big thirty times exactly straight up,
exactly like man, bro, y'all want teams doing this trying
to play like the Golden State words and the Celtis
when you're not built like that, right, Who are y'all?
What are you'll think? What are you doing? Y'all got

(32:47):
a real singer, yaker, what are y'all doing? Like when
we're watching the game over, I'll look at Peterle like,
what's that Peeple?

Speaker 3 (32:53):
Like, man, man, y'all need to fire the coach, you know,
p go straight gim man like man, she looks a
little And that's what it is, you, no, offen, it
is you know what I keep saying this and you
know we talk the new Lands, but data, man, everything
is so data driven these days that they, you know,
gems are in there pondering up strategies around outscoring you.
Not outstrategizing you, but trying to outscore you.

Speaker 1 (33:15):
That's hard.

Speaker 5 (33:17):
Speaking of data, Darryl Moorey of GM and the Sixers
recently said he uses AI when making basketball decisions. Curious
what your thought is of that? Seeing that.

Speaker 1 (33:28):
It looks like it. He's using AI to make what
kind of basketball decisions?

Speaker 5 (33:31):
Like health, thinks, rest things, trade? Hey, is this guy
better from three than this guy?

Speaker 1 (33:36):
Looks like that? It looks like it. Philly looks like it.
Philly looks like he's asking AI. That looks like he
has a real postman. That's where they at. It looks
like you look like you're using Then you gotta understand
what winning keys and winning players look like. You know
what I'm saying. You can have stat stats, numbers don't
tell the whole story because like I look at Jimmy, Say,

(34:00):
Jimmy Butler's eighteen and go to to State is a
different eighteen somewhere else, you know what I'm saying, Just
on the impact you know he gonna have somewhere as
compared to someone like like Okay. So it's just like
the eye tests and the numbers is two different things,
you know what I'm saying. Like Westbrook's numbers ain't gonna

(34:20):
say the impact that he got on Denver right now.
It ain't gonna reflect you know. So he has a major,
major impact. Ye, it ain't gonna reflect in the locker room,
and ain't gonna fflect in this time out when it's
thirty seconds to go, you down one, it ain't gonna
reflect in you know, making the right play. You know,
it's just numbers. Is just numbers, you know. And that's

(34:41):
the one thing that these gms mess up at across
all sports, you know. And that's what created all these
extra jobs and all these extra coaches, was this if
you don't know the game inside out, or know what
you're looking for, or know the ingredients that go with winning.
Like you know what I'm saying. I can look at
a player on a losing team and I could be like, damn,
he's a winning player, you know what I'm saying. Like

(35:02):
out of ten dudes, I'm like, Okay, he needs to
be on this squad. His this is gonna show better
over here, like Jeremy Grint. That's why you said about him,
he gonna look better over here, you know what I'm saying.
And the numbers don't say you know what the impact
that guys can have, you gotta be able to see it.

Speaker 3 (35:17):
Andre Hunter, look at his look at his eighteen twenty
coming from the Hawks and hide in pacts Cleveland.

Speaker 1 (35:22):
Yeah, you know what I'm saying, Yeah, exactly.

Speaker 3 (35:24):
Yeah, So you know, to concur with a peace said
and to follow that, you're not gonna see a lot
of the impactful vibes and energy that goes into helping
the team. It's not gonna show up on statue, and
if it does, it's gonna show up in other ways. Rebounds, steals,
you know what I'm saying, Office of Rebounds, Because you
gotta have anything that has effort in it, that's when

(35:47):
it shows up.

Speaker 1 (35:47):
You know what I'm saying. Yeah, I don't. I don't
agree with that. It's cool. You can look at it and.

Speaker 3 (35:52):
You think, you think, I think the wave. I think
when people see something work and not to say they're manipulated,
but you know, you know, throw it in action and
all it is the scripts. The only thing you're trying
to do is find something that works than trying to,
you know. So, I'm sure he's using it now in
a way of trying to. But when it's sports bro

(36:13):
sports data is one thing, man, feel seeing your eye test,
seeing how he reacted when he'd get the ball or
when coach took him out and he sat down, he
didn't adapt nobody else. Like, you have to watch things
not just from performance, and you gotta watch character. You
got to watch player involvement with other players. That those
things go into how your team not only moves, but

(36:35):
how it grows and if you got and I've seen man,
a great player be on the team, but his energy
wasn't right and it affected everybody on the team.

Speaker 1 (36:43):
So it's you know, I believe using AI to help,
but I'm not. I wouldn't.

Speaker 3 (36:48):
I wouldn't suggest standing on it when you actually got
to do IYE tests and got to do character tests
and field test that those are really big parts of
actually you know, when you're trying to get somebody and
trying to a talent and bring it together with the
other talents.

Speaker 1 (37:02):
Yeah, all that's important, But I'm gonna tell you something, JERRYL. Morey,
out of all the GMS or president, whatever you want
to call this role, he's been the biggest manipulator of
trying to transcend the game to the visitors to the owners.

(37:23):
And it sounds good and lonks good at first, but
it ain't really resulted in no championships. You know what
I'm saying, Because he's been kind of credited with the
what the small ball in Houston or the moneyball or
something like that, and then now he's coming with this AI.

(37:43):
So now people are gonna start hanging under that. But
I ain't seen none of that work nowhere. It's all subjective.
Un Yeah, but you know when you come with something
new all the time, you always you're keeping the job
you get, like for real, you come up with something
new that sounds interesting in it, Like at the end
of the day, it's been how many years? What the results?
That what the results? See the results? What the results?

(38:05):
That's what the results says. He gonna keep getting the job.
He's gonna keep putting together teams that ain't working out,
but he's gonna be manipult. Listen, it's a lot of
it sounds good, though it sounds it's smoking mirrors to me,
to be all honest. I mean, like, what's going on
in Philly right now is a disaster. He looks like
he has been a disaster. Like in the last fives

(38:27):
got hurt though them. Guys, what do you do? You feel?
What are you doing? If you feel, what are you doing?
You you're the owner of the what we're doing. Man,
I'm cleaning. If I'm the owner. Everybody gone, everybody gone.
I'm talking about all the way down. You can keeping Maxie,
I'm keeping maxiing. I'm talking about nurse. I'm starting in
the front office. Damn who you damn dere ain't he

(38:49):

You know, everybody needs some fresh air. Damn everybody, the
whole team, the whole organized starting fresh new completely. Damn

(39:10):

He ve I love him, man, he one of the
best ever play. But he needs some fresh air out
of Philly. Damn I thought you was K. Daryl Morey

(39:36):
Nick nurse needs some fresh You get rid of Nick
now nurse man cool, but he needs PG needs some
fresh Damn. You're seeing the PG out to day. You
just got man, he needs some fresh air. Then you
just got the whip you take around the block one
time You're like you see that other young boy that
played for Philly right now, hold on who delights can't
care he's playing right now? Forty the other day. No

(40:01):
quick cracking, masy cracking, Yeah, Queen grounds around grim on
my list, Queen Grimes is cracking, cracking, yeah, Grimes, Maxie
and the dude boy from Duke.

Speaker 6 (40:15):
Hey, look we activated you all don't want to play,
we actually listen.

Speaker 1 (40:19):
You're mad? Yeah, around that.

Speaker 5 (40:21):
Jerremy k would have been rookie here if he was healthy.

Speaker 1 (40:23):
Yeah fella yeah.

Speaker 5 (40:26):
Next thing I want to ask you.

Speaker 1 (40:30):
Fresh air, fresh air. He opened all the windows. All
the windows is going up, all low. The door open
to me. You got you got you know where you got?
The patio door.

Speaker 6 (40:42):
Wide open, and the screen to the screen open to.

Speaker 1 (40:51):
You. Got a fan that's blowing ship out the fan
and the door open facing the fans. The door ship
that's a country ship.

Speaker 5 (41:02):
I looked this up. We're approaching the thirtieth anniversary of
your guys is McDonald's All American Games, So I want
to kind of yeah, I want to kind of go
back in time. When when did you guys get the
news that hey, I'm a McDonald's All American and how
did you get it? So it's not the internet age.

Speaker 1 (41:17):
Damn No.

Speaker 3 (41:17):
I think maybe my high school coach coach came in.
You probably it did in front of team about yourself.

Speaker 1 (41:23):
Man, that's a good one, dog. I don't know how.
Maybe it's a letter. I think I got a letter,
letter like you made it. Damn, hey boy, you got
some mail. I don't know how how we find out.
I think a letter. I think we got got a
letter with a plane ticket in it. Ain't that high
went it was like a plane ticket and coach your

(41:44):
coach coach? Yeah, I was like, yeah, my shawl don't
remember Paul coach made the ass practicing after practice, like yeah,
we want to open something up. Now the season was
over because you know the game and April, so you
probably know about what a month what the announced that
to take that. They announce that the McDonald's team early March,
because so now it's plays like February. It's over right now,

(42:06):
so they it's two weeks away from Mickey D's right now.
So you're probably gonna find out now.

Speaker 5 (42:10):
Yeah, very soon. So that's why I was curious asking
you guys approaching the three year.

Speaker 1 (42:14):
Yeah, Wolf Wolf brought the team in and then and
then remember and.

Speaker 5 (42:18):
Then did you guys understand like the level of prestige
that being named in America wasn't that?

Speaker 3 (42:24):
So listen watching it every year in high school. It
was a couple of things that you cared about. If
I say any of this that's wrong, go ahead.

Speaker 1 (42:31):
And I wanted to make Nickey Streets and Smith. Yeah, yeah,
you always got that book if you if you, if
you found it to make that book, sure, that was everything.
I didn't care about. Bob Givens list, I didn't care
about nobody. If you was in Streets.

Speaker 3 (42:47):
It was a book called Streets and Smith, and they
had every player that played, and it didn't always have
a picture Bomb, but it had his name.

Speaker 1 (42:56):
It was a college book. Every real hooper followed that
book for that magazine show. If you ever saw that magazine,
you didn't buy it, but you look like, hell, oh look,
Paul Pierson, it's got chepan Martin's got everybody that you're
looking for. Then he might have the juniors didn't even
have the scenes, and it's got so In La and California,

(43:20):
though they had this booklet called the cal High Sports
That was another one for Cali though it was for Cali.
Cali from northern side of the count That's how you
find out your local stuff. That's hard, you know what
I'm saying. You find out, okay, locally where you at
before you even get to the streets Smith. For me,
I was cal High Sports, the streets and Smith. So
we all knew what the prestige was. And you was

(43:42):
looking at those magazines to be able to see where
you want to play and where you at. And somebody
was ranked in front of you. You want to see
if he was nice and all that, you know what
I'm saying. But yeah, hell yeah, we knew what Nikodys
was and the prestige of it.

Speaker 5 (43:55):
So also just going to that game you go to,
you go to Saint Louis. The game is in Saint Louis.

Speaker 1 (43:59):
Yeah, bring some pictures in. I got a lot of
pictures from there. Pee and the guys hung Guy, I
ain't really hate got dog. I was. I was going
through a bunch of shit. Dog. I was in the
middle of trying to pass the test, figure out the school.
A lot of guys that was had already made a
decision and ship.

Speaker 5 (44:16):
But did you decide to go go into the draft
at that point, had you had decided, Hey, I'm going
pro instead of college at that point, No, I had.

Speaker 1 (44:24):
This is after the Scottie ship, and then I think
a week later I go to Mickey The's after that,
and then after when I went to after the Jordan Ship,
the famous Jordan or whatever story. I go to Mickey
The's a week or two later, and then Isaiah put

the hospital. Everybody signed to everybody's shoe and there wasn't
no ego in there. I remember. Everybody's real humble and chilled.

Speaker 1 (45:43):
I remember, you know what I'm saying. Night before it,
they stole the jerseys. He had to put on the
whole autograph jersey. You know what I'm saying. But man,
I'm gonna tell you though practice, Ticket was getting killed.
I was getting killed by Chris Clack and Ticket was
getting killed by UEF. They was at us like damn
number one crazy went down middle on the whole team

(46:04):
and just damn, you drove past me. I was like,
damn giving it up.

Speaker 6 (46:09):
And under game they was killing us in practice is
so bad that we was killing us.

Speaker 3 (46:16):
And went to the right and was like listen, hold on, man,
I'll tell you that was crazy. They can't come out
like that. We can't come out and look like that.
Then they was talking ship and and then they kind
of went off and did their own thing.

Speaker 1 (46:26):
Maryon. I'll never forget that we got beat like that.
I was practice. They was busting no way. I get
on TV and looked like the game came. It was
a whole other story. That was crazy, right, But I'm
glad TV. I'm glad I got to see that because
they popped us. They was popping us in practice. I

(46:47):
never forget we was talking ship. I ain't number one,
Yeah they were. It was Mercer. Mercer was at me for.

Speaker 5 (46:56):
You specifically, though you win the m v P of
that game, how did you feel just amongst your peers,
being like, hey, I was named the MVP as McDonald's Americans.

Speaker 3 (47:04):
I didn't even really because actually I thought Paul, and
I thought Paul in Vince because I think he had
the most points in the events. Just I think the
last two three minutes that ship turned into like a
dunk of.

Speaker 1 (47:16):
Thon, like a lobb. We had a stress with I
think I caught a lob and then got a lob
caught on me and then lobb somebody caught a lob
on me, and you hustle back and then yeah, mercer
on me. Right. Yeah, it was like a back to
back player. It was sick.

Speaker 5 (47:34):
You had twenty eight in the game. You had eighteen
eleven in the game.

Speaker 1 (47:37):
He was going for he had told everybody going for
it though. You know what I'm I can tell how
he was coming out out of out of like picking rolls.
He was going for you know, I mother come out.
I was swinging he had Nah. I think I only
missed like two shots. He was getting it up. I
already knew what she was on.

Speaker 5 (47:50):
I was like, I was like eleven for thirty years. Man,
it's pretty cool that you guys are still together. And
you know, looking back in the game, multiple Hall of
Famers were in that game.

Speaker 2 (47:57):
Ye.

Speaker 4 (47:58):
Cool.

Speaker 1 (47:58):
Yeah, there was a lot of good guys, man that
come from them. We got more Hall of Famers. Is
that the most? Yeah, that's the most out of any class.
Gotta be four Hall of Famers and one high school
class ninety six Nigga high school class. Okay, Mickey, I'm
talking about Mickey d. Ship. Just the game, not the draft.

(48:19):
The game I think that's the most. I think the
most is to the outside of us. Look at some
of them seventies eighties teams, four Hall of Famers, though
it's me and you Chauncey your events. That's it's it's
another one. It's they got be a great trivia question.
You look at that. Look that up.

if you had to put a hundred thousand, you got
a hundred thousand. You're putting one hundred thousand on one team.
Who's gonna win it? Pete? Who you like? The ball
goes where Florida is? Florida? Like that? Florida? Nice? I

Cooper for Bro he might come back. Yeah, he did
what you're doing. It's tough one right there. We're doing that.

the greatest freshman seasons ever. Like he could be National
Player of the Year, Freshman of the Year, uh acc player, man,
he can win everything as a fresh design do this,
