Go ahead, I can't.
Speaker 4 (04:13):
I can't do it. I can't do it. You know why.
Speaker 1 (04:21):
The laker, of course, and he was more dominant the
most player ever as one side of all, Yeah, he
was on the great player, but only only one side.
Speaker 2 (04:34):
Of the ball was he dominant?
Speaker 4 (04:35):
No, he was dominant on the dominant one.
Speaker 2 (04:40):
Because I got a who bunch of ship for you.
But go ahead, he built down.
Speaker 3 (04:45):
You gotta built up. Okay, I'm play shock number two,
so mists dominant. And then I'm I'm gonna go ahead
and put Kareem at number one. Played Pareim a number one,
and I know everybody got the Kareem number one.
Speaker 4 (04:58):
He was the best center in the and the FU
n b A. So that's my list. Let's go. I
want to hear you'all stats on this.
Speaker 2 (05:05):
All right, I've got one question I get. I get
one question of a joker? Hey, what was joking?
Speaker 1 (05:11):
Stands when a six two guard was got him this
year in the playoffs and getting the paint? Tell me
tell me the stands that game?
Speaker 2 (05:18):
What's that? Wasn't that your boy that was guarding him? Caruso, Hey, Caruso, So.
Speaker 1 (05:28):
So what you're telling me is six to carusso can't
guard one of the top centers of all time.
Speaker 2 (05:34):
That was it? That? That that what you're telling me? Right? Okay?
Speaker 1 (05:37):
That right?
Speaker 2 (05:38):
Hey?
Speaker 1 (05:38):
That right there was enough to keep off my fucking list.
When I watched that Ship, I couldn't believe that I.
Speaker 2 (05:43):
Could be that bullshit keeping the worst case scenario.
Speaker 1 (05:49):
It was in a fucking game seven, game seven. This
motherfucker a guard takes two. They can't jump. He was Yeah,
he was tired.
Speaker 4 (06:02):
He was tired.
Speaker 2 (06:03):
Was he's tired? Right?
Speaker 1 (06:08):
Well, keep off the list, then you know what I'm
saying about your list tweet. Obviously, defense don't matter on
your list, you're about all offensive centers. Ship Shack was
the most dominant center of all the time on one
side of the ball. And he's a great player. He's
gonna be in my top five too, but he wasn't
the most dominant player on the defense side.
Speaker 2 (06:26):
Shack was a lazy fucking defender period.
Speaker 1 (06:30):
That's why Kobe got into it all time, because the
motherfucker's lazy eating cheeseburgers and Ship.
Speaker 2 (06:35):
Yeah, that's the truth. That's the truth.
Speaker 1 (06:38):
That's what I'm saying about that, all right, Well, nobody
get to feed back anybody else to say about tweeting list.
Speaker 2 (06:43):
You know it was that jugger ship. I mean he
he had to hear that ship. He did have seen
mother guard.
Speaker 1 (06:50):
I mean he can never be on my list because
he wasn't even about my list. One thing about my list.
Ain't no six two guards, don't don't guard nobody on
my list.
Speaker 2 (07:01):
I get it. Now, let's keep it mind. Neither you
up hit it.
Speaker 1 (07:08):
Okay, you already for you already for this real ship.
He goes some real ship right here at number five.
Patrick Bullshit started on the best two way centers that
ever played this game. He's done on every level. I
(07:29):
don't gonna talk. I'm not gonna even meet this college days,
but he down college in the college because he pros
and he beat and he beat everybody at the keen
oldge on his list.
Speaker 2 (07:41):
He beat a key loge in college college with that
asked in the pros. He beat him the championship the
pros and he played. He ate. He didn't want to at.
Speaker 1 (07:54):
The Pros, but he held y'all one of your best
centers from winning in college, answer that question.
Speaker 2 (08:01):
College, He's a he's an all.
Speaker 1 (08:03):
Time Wait I mean, well to me, see, I look
at that whole career. I'm not just looking at me.
I don't know the whole career.
Speaker 2 (08:09):
But now he's an all time twenty one team guy
in the Pros.
Speaker 1 (08:13):
He's seventh. He played both had of the ball. He's
seventh all time in blocks, seventh all time. He played defense,
He bought that ship, he played, he away centers, sometimes
he took sometimes he had to take it in the
face to play good. That's right, that's right, that's right,
that's right, that's right. And hey, and when you play
(08:36):
d hey, it's gonna happen to everybody. But the thing is,
but the fact of the matter is he put that
afide of the ball and almost says this this about
that Patrick, you ain't and him be the king, because
the King was like two years out of swinging trees
in Africa. He wouldn't even playing basketball. He became a
kam in the Pros. It's not like a personal problem.
(08:59):
I don't even know of the finals. All I know
if he put that ass and co at number four
at number four, I got Shaquille O'Neill, Sequille O'Neil at
number four, number four, Shaquille O'Neil. He did dominate on
the off side of the ball. Could nobody stop him. Yeah,
(09:19):
he's one of the most dominated players on the other
side of the ball that the game has ever seen.
Speaker 2 (09:25):
But but you here I mentioned on the office side
of the ball.
Speaker 1 (09:28):
The problem guy with Shaky is he never led the
lead and rebounding with his big ass.
Speaker 2 (09:33):
That just being lazy and he didn't play to defense.
Was shaky. He played defense in big games, but throughout
his career. No, he wasn't. He wasn't.
Speaker 1 (09:44):
He was a player and with his size and strength
he could he could have been the most dominated player
every everything, if if, if you'd put that effort in.
But he didn't put that effort in. So that boy
gave him a number four. Never let the league in
blocks either rebounds come.
Speaker 2 (10:03):
On, you didn't have to intimating he had the other
boy in the wing.
Speaker 1 (10:10):
Yeah, center, Ever, he wouldn't tim they went on on
on the rebounds because he didn't ever have leaguing rebounds.
Speaker 4 (10:20):
So that's a lot.
Speaker 2 (10:22):
Because he was too busy pulling a rim dot.
Speaker 1 (10:27):
At number three at Moses Malone was now talking about
rebounding six times, rebounding champion.
Speaker 2 (10:37):
He's he he's fifth all.
Speaker 1 (10:40):
Time in rebounds. He led his team to a championship.
He had the flip up sevent to a championship. It's
so many times this guy all time. He made all
the with the team two times, three times. Every p
of the league. This guy was legit and he put
(11:01):
that effort in. And when you put that effort in,
you give results. And that's what MOSTI alone did. Quiet
has kept. Like I said, he's one of the best
centers of all time. He will be at a and
I want to thank Mark West a big Mark fas Lie.
You put me and you can put me a game.
I appreciate that.
Speaker 2 (11:16):
Bro. Let's let's keep it moving. Add number two, add
number It's a kee. I mean he, I mean ja.
Speaker 1 (11:25):
He's one of the best centers feet work wise and
all that offensive league a feet work, some of the
best moves you've ever seen.
Speaker 2 (11:35):
But he just playing about him too. Huh what do
you say, did he just play offense? Well?
Speaker 1 (11:44):
Let me finish well by to say is he's one
of the best two way players never played the game. Players,
not just centers, but players. Look, he's tipping steals. That's
that's amazing for a center to be tip all time
and steals and guess what, he's first in blocks. So yes,
he's a two way player. He played both sides of
the ball. That's dominate. That's dominating. Now, if Shaq had that,
(12:08):
Shack could have been probably probably probably the best player.
Speaker 2 (12:12):
But it's too lazy.
Speaker 1 (12:14):
But that's why keevil number two. He is number two, yes,
and at number one, man, I'm sorry, but this guy
right here, hey, what he did? He made these guys
change the game because he was just that dominant. I mean,
and I'm gonna go back to his college days too,
because he only played three years in college because back then,
(12:37):
as a freshman you couldn't play, you couldn't play. He
won all three years, the National Championship Player of the Year.
Then he then he came to the pros. He he
had six rings. He was the all time league scorer
before the Key took that over the last couple of years.
He's third all time in blocks, and he had and
(12:59):
and and he stirred all time in our rebounds. But
he had the most dominating shot that couldn't nobody stop,
and that was that hook. But he just all around
six time champion. I'm six times MVP of the league.
This guy, he he changed the game and that's reason
(13:20):
why he is the best center that I've ever seen. Yes,
Kareem Mai du Jabbar, he was a man and he
deserved all that. And then so that's my five. I'm
gonna say, you started off, you started off fucked up,
ship because and he always does the same bullshit he'll
pull in that college because you know you ain't want
none of the pros, so that somebody's that bullshit.
Speaker 2 (13:43):
You started off fucked up, you ended up strong. I
give you.
Speaker 1 (13:46):
I think the other four had no arguments with which
other four, but your first pick was was fucked up.
Speaker 2 (13:51):
So Joe okay, but.
Speaker 1 (13:54):
That my feedback with that is Jeff because he didn't
win it, and he the team to the finals, but
he didn't have a team. I mean to give him
that help to win it because he didn't have a
team he did. Happened the exact same thing happened in
college with him and the Key he beat He beat
the King in college because you know why, because Georgetown
had a better team and then Houston in the finals,
(14:18):
they had a better team. And that prayer that stepped
up in that finals and Patty you ain't didn't.
Speaker 2 (14:23):
Oh my god, how many years.
Speaker 1 (14:26):
If Patrick you ain't would have had Sam to Sale
that year, they would have walked sad and Sales stepped
up just as good as anybody. But go ahead and
for one year, would you talk about the Knicks. The
Knicks became the Buffalo Bills of the Eastern Conference every
way out that once they would would They didn't make
(14:47):
that fire. They couldn't make it that.
Speaker 2 (14:49):
They made me this one time. But it's all good.
Speaker 4 (14:52):
Team is better than than the drinker.
Speaker 2 (14:56):
He oh yeah, hell yeah, hell yeah.
Speaker 1 (14:58):
You better than Joker because he I got I got
a mentioned to you earlier because Joker, yeah, he played.
That's the first thing he paid. Both had the ball.
That's the first thing. Second thing is you will never
see No. Six two guard. God, no, Patrick, you ain't ever.
Speaker 2 (15:16):
I agree with that.
Speaker 4 (15:17):
Hey, Hey he's gonna pull it up.
Speaker 2 (15:19):
Hey, that's one thing.
Speaker 1 (15:23):
One thing though, tweety Joker would not go down in
the paint with Patrick Ewing. He'd be out there busting
his ass because Patrick Ewing with the fish water wouldn't
white boy, hell, he would not be busting you down.
Speaker 2 (15:41):
You wouldn't be talking. You would be you WoT be?
You ain't can't play outside the three point line? You
it's slow as joker. You think Jomer getting past him?
Speaker 1 (15:49):
Right, don't get out of here, Joe Swift when you
had the three, got a hell of a lot more
room to get around somebody.
Speaker 2 (15:57):
Faces and ship like that. But how come we good
get around six two of Caruso? Yeah, I canna get
shoot over him. Tell me, I'm just saying I think ship.
Speaker 1 (16:12):
Yeah, whatever, that's what that's what that's what he do say.
That's some bush you ain't saying. Let's move on number three.
The fact that we don't talk.
Speaker 2 (16:20):
About Patrick Ewan? Is we talking? Is it my turn?
Moving on number three? This go? It's okay, all right,
let's let's hit it. Let's hit this list. Start at
number five.
Speaker 1 (16:31):
Man needs no introduction, full time m v P two
time NBA champion, Will the still Chamberlain coming in at
number five and number five and number five? Yeah, I
got him a number five, I got number five? Hey, Hey,
like Mr West said, I got it, I got five.
(16:54):
They could be at any order they can, Hey, you
could they interchangeable? You know what I'm saying? They could
be the one day, it could be this one, it
could be that. But like I said, like I said,
with mister West is on here, I don't give a
fuck with mister West had to say.
Speaker 2 (17:06):
Wolters still didn't number shut up, shut up?
Speaker 1 (17:09):
He had you said he is fired Joe List he

you know, one of the best. Kill me, hey, number folk,
number folk. Hey he was at five last time, y'all.
Speaker 4 (17:31):
He moving on up.
Speaker 2 (17:34):
Hey, go cut you down to night too. So King Lajah,
why you know skill big man, two time n b u.
Speaker 1 (17:43):
P two time NBA champion, You know I got him
at my number four spot, number three, twelve time All Star,
eleven time NBA champion, Bill Russell. Don't put Bill Russell
at number three. You can't not not what you with
with the stats and with what he's done and and
what he done with the game. So put Bill Russell
(18:05):
in that number number two for me, big shack. Love
him dominating. Y'all can say with what y'all want to
say about defense whatever, I don't care. He was so
intimidating the man he didn't didn't matter what he did
on the other side.
Speaker 2 (18:23):
That's killing him, y'all killing them.
Speaker 4 (18:29):
He was anyone comes to the paint.
Speaker 1 (18:33):
That's why your other leaker, That's why your other leaker
boy used to be mad about time because the motherfucker
didn't play defense cheese burgers in a halftime ship. Nobody
never could match up to Kobe. He mad at the
whole damn team, get out of here a game every night.
Speaker 2 (18:51):
So that Shaq was just my man. I love him.
Speaker 1 (18:54):
That's why I with him number one Kareema six time champion,
you know, uh six m vps, the only person who
got uh the shares that with with Jordan's uh the
proverbial points go.
Speaker 2 (19:09):
If you know, you got to say, you know, so hey,
I love him, you know, like Mark said.
Speaker 1 (19:15):
Core create the skyhook, you know, and will always go
down and uh infamy as one of the greatest players
ever in my number one center of all time.
Speaker 2 (19:23):
That's it. Let me have it, Joe.
Speaker 1 (19:26):
Somebody, because all I say is about Williams. I mean,
I haven't seen him play. I mean and I just
haven't seen him play. But when I have seen him playing,
he was going up against Carusos and but now I
will give you credit. I will give credit he was killed.
(19:46):
I will say that he was killing the gruso you know,
not like joking. Sorry ass, but that's only but one thing,
one thing, one thing Wes excuse me. One thing Wes
said about Will is that when he went up against Kareem,
he was throwing.
Speaker 2 (20:04):
His ship too.
Speaker 1 (20:05):
You know what I'm saying, he was blocking this ship too,
So you know you got to keep that in mind too.
When he played up and Russell, you know he was
throwing this ship too. That's all I want to say, right, yeah,
what what else you.
Speaker 2 (20:20):
Say? I hate on Will? Now I'm defending it.
Speaker 4 (20:24):
Hate on Will?
Speaker 1 (20:25):
And you say he was killing the motherfuckers. You put
scrub motherfuckers out front of me. Then in game seven
you couldn't putting on fucking Caruso on Will. What would
have killches?
Speaker 2 (20:35):
Buffling ass. So that's why I say, Look, just the
fact that.
Speaker 1 (20:38):
I had to sit there and watch that bullshit tweeting
that mother never missed mind anyway, he will, he will
that live. We've seen that live. We seen that with
her own eyes. Ain't no old video tape, but that
sh that missed me off.
Speaker 2 (20:55):
That Yeah, that it was crazy. Yeah, I ain't never
seen something so ridiculous my life.
Speaker 4 (21:00):
All right, now, here we go, Here we go.
Speaker 2 (21:04):
Ain't agree.
Speaker 1 (21:05):
That's more about Joker hey and the soft ass league
that they playing. Now they all everybody else soltis shit.
All right, here we go, Baby, we're gonna round it
on up, We're gonna bring it on round, and then
we're gonna snap it down. Rides Top five picks Top
five selection of the NBA centers of all time. Now,
(21:26):
one thing you gonna know you're knowing about my list,
you gotta motherfucker bring it on both sides. You gotta
bring it consistently in the in the regular season, you
gotta bring in the playoffs. You gotta be able to
spearhead your team to a championship. So you'll see that
that's consistent among everybody that's on this motherfucking list. I
ain't giving no charity, And because I like the motherfucking
college and all that shit, I'm putting them on there now.
(21:50):
Number five on my list. Great player one of the
greatest players of all time. Average twenty three and ten
for his career, three times Finals MVP, four time champion,
Shaquille O'Neill, the most dominant offensive force of all time.
Speaker 2 (22:10):
Once again, you gotta play both sides.
Speaker 1 (22:13):
And when it was Tatabayed defense in the regular season,
he was shocking the food and Kazama somewhere he was
doing that bullshit. He wouldn't play attention to the defense
in the details, and which is why him and Kobe
stayed into it, and which is why I can't.
Speaker 2 (22:27):
I am forbidden from putting Shaq higher on my list.
Speaker 1 (22:31):
I love Shaq, can't I can't get over the fact
that he never won a rebounding title and he never
won the block tire ever. And when you shot site
seven to two, three hundred founds, the most intimidating thing
on the court, you can't have zeros in those categories.
Speaker 2 (22:47):
So number five, number four.
Speaker 1 (22:51):
While I didn't see him play, I seen enough footage
and I seen enough tape to be able to say
it and equivocally.
Speaker 2 (22:59):
And like I said, you if you line a little.
Speaker 1 (23:01):
Bitty motherfuckers up with this dude, this dude scored one
hundred points in the game. This dude had a season
where he averaged fifty points and thirty rebounds, and for
his career, he averaged thirty points and twenty two rebounds
twenty two point nine, we'll say twenty three for his career,
one time finals the MVP, he won one championship, I
(23:21):
won two NBA titles. Man, he was a ten time
All start I would say, four time MVP. You can't
put together a list of centers and not have fucking
Wilt Chamberlain on the list.
Speaker 2 (23:32):
Right, You just can't.
Speaker 1 (23:35):
You just care now you are you are incomplete if
you put together a fucking list and don't have Will
Chambers on that he Hey, the story of the center
position is not fucking complete if you don't have Will
on that list. Q, you got it right.
Speaker 2 (23:52):
These two motherfuckers got wrong me and you gotta run next.
Number three.
Speaker 1 (24:00):
Probably one of the greatest all around centers of all
time that I've ever seen, offensively defensively, won won two titles,
two MVPs and titles one one MVP of the regular Season,
twelve time All Star, two time Defense Player of the Year,
three time block champion, and, as Martin said earlier, career leader.
Speaker 2 (24:25):
In blocks all time.
Speaker 1 (24:27):
And look, I will tell you one of the things
that that's that's etched my memory forever is that motherfucking
dreams shape that that nig Can put on David Robinson
in the yet, in the finals, in the West County
Finals and then winning the win championships. I've never seen
a center have a great a greater series than what
the keim Elajawan had that series. My number three center
(24:48):
of all time, the Keem the dream of Lojahwan. Hey,
he didn't he won, He won in pros, got two,
got back to back clutch c team. He didn't win
in coutas. Like I said, he was two years off
of the swing on treating ship and he didn't he
was playing basketball. He was playing soccer and ship barefoot
pass you and just put that ass, keep it go
kill a movie.
Speaker 2 (25:08):
So you didn't make it.
Speaker 1 (25:10):
But when he came back and did it pros now
number two center of all time, I meant like these
these next two are just you don't even have to
put any thought to it. I don't think he Buffles
had him on the list. None Bumbles had any list.
Why can you put together list?
Speaker 2 (25:28):
And I have an.
Speaker 1 (25:28):
Eleven time fucking champion, how Be awards, eleven times All NBA,
twelve time All Star, and for his career averaged twenty
two and a half rebounds per game and coached the
team to a championship in a time when the racial
hatred and the things that are going on the country
(25:50):
and in Boston in particular. He rolled above all that
to with eleven fucking championship. And you guys do a
discservice to your race by not having Bill Russell on
my number two center of all time.
Speaker 2 (26:06):
You do together, Yeah you got. I'm not saying as
a racial elementary.
Speaker 1 (26:18):
What I'm saying is is that you gotta put what
happens off the court impacts of what happens on the court,
and he rolled them up all that ship.
Speaker 2 (26:25):
Forget about number two cents all time, Bill.
Speaker 1 (26:28):
Russell, and you ain't seeing one motherfucking game, but keep
it moving. One motherfucking game. You don't see what Mark neither,
but you still respect keep moving. I agree now his
last one. It's the same as everybody listen. I mean,
(26:49):
you cannot deny the accomplishments of this man. I will
tell you we got him, and we're talking about him
here as the greatest center of our time. He you
have to get enough consideration for probably the greatest fucking
player of all time when you're taking consideration now, this
is where where it's appropriate to bring it in what
he did in college. Oh it's not appropriate. Not as appropriate, Yeah,
(27:13):
not's appropriate. Consistent with what he did career. Look ahead,
it's consistent. It's the sixth time motherfucking champion for his
career average twenty four point six points a game, average
eleven rebounds, and had the most unstoppable moves in the
history of basketball play for the Lakers.
Speaker 2 (27:36):
You know, so I don't hold that against them, but
I would tell you.
Speaker 1 (27:40):
Not only the greatest center of our time, one of
the greatest players of our time, Kareema du Jabbai. You
gotta give it to him. That's about number one center
of all time. Hey, hey, book that ship. Hey, when
and when you when you go out and listen to
the pungits that really know what the you're talking about,
their list is gonna mirror mind. It's gonna be just
like mine at the elements and the same players that
I have a mind. That's what you're gonna hear on
(28:01):
the puns that know.
Speaker 2 (28:02):
What well, well if hey, if if they're like seventy
eighty years old.
Speaker 4 (28:07):
Hey, yeah, they're gonna be because they've seen them.
Speaker 1 (28:10):
No, mother player, ain't never seen the two people. You
can't tell me ship because I seen him saying highlights.
Tell me you see it the highlights. Of course they're
gonna show all the great highlights. But seeing highlights, you
you cannot stand judge the players and tell me how
you want.
Speaker 4 (28:26):
To put something.
Speaker 2 (28:27):
And I'm taking tell you this, look, look, look that look.
Speaker 1 (28:30):
Look you say you can't judge, look, talk about the
motherfucker scored one hundred points of the game with no
three the motherfucker points.
Speaker 2 (28:37):
He averaged fifty points and thirty rebounds for the entire season.
What was it in that game? Hey? And that game
is scored a hundred points? What was the tallest prayer
on other teams like six? Can you tell me that? Hey?
I looked up. I looked it up. He was six
(28:59):
three six, Shut up. Their biggest guy was six three boy. Hey,
y'all got to quit hating on Will. Hey, Will was
the motherfucking man. Will was the dog. He's a dog
of all dogs, the dog of our dogs.
Speaker 4 (29:20):
And uh l.
Speaker 1 (29:22):
He led played a year before a couple of times
he was lead Leagan blocks two seasons.
Speaker 2 (29:30):
Was great. It is right and women he had said
a thousands something.
Speaker 4 (29:33):
Yeah, and women.
Speaker 2 (29:36):
The fact he kept up with count the count of
it was right. Hey, now if we had a list
for that, we have this for that. Hey he remember
one ship. I'm just saying.
Speaker 4 (29:50):
Exactly exactly.
Speaker 1 (29:52):
Yeah. I think I think experienced on the same on
off the court was equal to experience on he was down.
He's a player, a dominant player on both sides. Okay,
all right, that's the list.
Speaker 3 (30:08):
I put my stats, I put Yoki stats against anybody
else's stats, and he on this list.
Speaker 2 (30:14):
He give me on this list.
Speaker 1 (30:17):
I'm still waiting for you to give me this task.
When Cruising was guarding him, please can you give me
this task? With Caruso was guarding him, a six two guard?
Please a sinner, they said, He continued.
Speaker 5 (30:33):
What is looksed all the picks that me, Rbby and
Quinn that came up with You tell me one player
that Crusoe could have.
Speaker 2 (30:43):
Guarded on those lists. Just give me none, none at
this shot that would have worked out on him. I
ain't a big fan of pat Out.
Speaker 1 (30:57):
And what I would tell you is this ahead, right,
don't you say what you guys I say after I'm
telling you I'm gaging up on Big Pat. Big Pat
played in the era where it was the best centers too,
so keep that mind too. The eighties was the best
time for I mean with the best era for figuring.
Speaker 2 (31:16):
I'm and he did.
Speaker 1 (31:17):
He did doing that era, So look that up and
look and this, and this is being real talk no
disrespect to Big Pat. On my list, he's top ten
all time, said he and I will tell you and
I'll tell you this, he's ahead of Joker on my list.
There's no way in the world I would have took Joker.
Speaker 2 (31:35):
A motherfucker. I only played one side of the ball
over the batter ewning not.
Speaker 4 (31:40):
To stats alone, stands alone. He just domblading on stats alone.
Speaker 2 (31:45):
So so so stats are good when you're talking Joker, right,
So stats don't count the same for will none of them.
Speaker 4 (31:54):
Put him against them?
Speaker 2 (31:54):
To No, he's not. He gonna be sitting on the
fucking bench because he can't be none of them.
Speaker 4 (31:59):
You can put his staff against anybody Joker.
Speaker 2 (32:03):
Joker wouldn't have made in the eighties.
Speaker 1 (32:04):
I'm telling you right now, Joker wouldn't the eighties average
when it was not bus centers. Please across Portland. He's
the best center in the current they game.
Speaker 2 (32:18):
But you know, like you know, like I do.
Speaker 1 (32:20):
We all have our reservations by the current game. That's
all I'm gonna say. I'm gonna rest of my case
on that. We all have our reservation. But look, hey,
great athletes, super athletic. Uh, they can do things that
you've never seen before, right hand, left hand, everything as fired,
the toughest factor and playing physical deep in the football basketball, No,
that don't happen in the current current day, don't have it.
Speaker 4 (32:43):
So in the current day, what players? So what what centers?
You said? Joking? The only center that can play back
in the eighties, he's the only.
Speaker 1 (32:55):
One players that can't play, none of them. It's only
a couple. I mean, well in today's game, it's only
a couple of true centers period. I mean it's it's
only a couple of true centers period in the game
right now. But when if B plays physical, I think
(33:15):
he could have played back then. But that's when he
choose to play physical, you know, always you know, playing
he get caught up and shooting threes and all that stuff.
But it ain't it ain't too many centers right now
that could have played back at the age.
Speaker 2 (33:29):
I'm telling you right now, hey, none of.
Speaker 1 (33:30):
These motherfuckers are my top ten, none of them. I
think West unselling something others before I take it ok
and in B and some the other week motherfuckers telling
I kind of I kind of show up. I think
big Willis Reed limping off the bench before I take
a joker and taking beat. So I ain't it ain't
nothing about nothing else, no no color, no nothing, cause
(33:51):
I was put him beat in the same bucket and
then he ship sometimes he ain't never healthy, he want
to shoot too many threes and on defense when he
had a big man like joker, you play soft.
Speaker 2 (34:01):
So that's what I gotta say.
Speaker 1 (34:02):
So all right, hey, well we beat We beat this
one up. We hit it heavy. Hey, we put together
our list. Audience subscribers, check it out and let us

Speaker 2 (03:42):
I can't I'm gonna fight him. I won't fight you, Moses. Okay.
Speaker 3 (03:45):
He was a twelve time in All NBA, eight time
All NBA team selected. So I'm gonna pick mos Malone

him play. Number three. I gotta go with a cameo
Lodja one, number three, number three came old one. I
(04:07):
can't you know, I can't put him get a bus shack.
Go ahead, I can't.
Speaker 4 (04:13):
I can't do it. I can't do it. You know why.
Speaker 1 (04:21):
The laker, of course, and he was more dominant the
most player ever as one side of all, Yeah, he
was on the great player, but only only one side.
Speaker 2 (04:34):
Of the ball was he dominant?
Speaker 4 (04:35):
No, he was dominant on the dominant one.
Speaker 2 (04:40):
Because I got a who bunch of ship for you.
But go ahead, he built down.
Speaker 3 (04:45):
You gotta built up. Okay, I'm play shock number two,
so mists dominant. And then I'm I'm gonna go ahead
and put Kareem at number one. Played Pareim a number one,
and I know everybody got the Kareem number one.
Speaker 4 (04:58):
He was the best center in the and the FU
n b A. So that's my list. Let's go. I
want to hear you'all stats on this.
Speaker 2 (05:05):
All right, I've got one question I get. I get
one question of a joker? Hey, what was joking?
Speaker 1 (05:11):
Stands when a six two guard was got him this
year in the playoffs and getting the paint? Tell me
tell me the stands that game?
Speaker 2 (05:18):
What's that? Wasn't that your boy that was guarding him? Caruso, Hey, Caruso, So.
Speaker 1 (05:28):
So what you're telling me is six to carusso can't
guard one of the top centers of all time.
Speaker 2 (05:34):
That was it? That? That that what you're telling me? Right? Okay?
Speaker 1 (05:37):
That right?
Speaker 2 (05:38):
Hey?
Speaker 1 (05:38):
That right there was enough to keep off my fucking list.
When I watched that Ship, I couldn't believe that I.
Speaker 2 (05:43):
Could be that bullshit keeping the worst case scenario.
Speaker 1 (05:49):
It was in a fucking game seven, game seven. This
motherfucker a guard takes two. They can't jump. He was Yeah,
he was tired.
Speaker 4 (06:02):
He was tired.
Speaker 2 (06:03):
Was he's tired? Right?
Speaker 1 (06:08):
Well, keep off the list, then you know what I'm
saying about your list tweet. Obviously, defense don't matter on
your list, you're about all offensive centers. Ship Shack was
the most dominant center of all the time on one
side of the ball. And he's a great player. He's
gonna be in my top five too, but he wasn't
the most dominant player on the defense side.
Speaker 2 (06:26):
Shack was a lazy fucking defender period.
Speaker 1 (06:30):
That's why Kobe got into it all time, because the
motherfucker's lazy eating cheeseburgers and Ship.
Speaker 2 (06:35):
Yeah, that's the truth. That's the truth.
Speaker 1 (06:38):
That's what I'm saying about that, all right, Well, nobody
get to feed back anybody else to say about tweeting list.
Speaker 2 (06:43):
You know it was that jugger ship. I mean he
he had to hear that ship. He did have seen
mother guard.
Speaker 1 (06:50):
I mean he can never be on my list because
he wasn't even about my list. One thing about my list.
Ain't no six two guards, don't don't guard nobody on
my list.
Speaker 2 (07:01):
I get it. Now, let's keep it mind. Neither you
up hit it.
Speaker 1 (07:08):
Okay, you already for you already for this real ship.
He goes some real ship right here at number five.
Patrick Bullshit started on the best two way centers that
ever played this game. He's done on every level. I
(07:29):
don't gonna talk. I'm not gonna even meet this college days,
but he down college in the college because he pros
and he beat and he beat everybody at the keen
oldge on his list.
Speaker 2 (07:41):
He beat a key loge in college college with that
asked in the pros. He beat him the championship the
pros and he played. He ate. He didn't want to at.
Speaker 1 (07:54):
The Pros, but he held y'all one of your best
centers from winning in college, answer that question.
Speaker 2 (08:01):
College, He's a he's an all.
Speaker 1 (08:03):
Time Wait I mean, well to me, see, I look
at that whole career. I'm not just looking at me.
I don't know the whole career.
Speaker 2 (08:09):
But now he's an all time twenty one team guy
in the Pros.
Speaker 1 (08:13):
He's seventh. He played both had of the ball. He's
seventh all time in blocks, seventh all time. He played defense,
He bought that ship, he played, he away centers, sometimes
he took sometimes he had to take it in the
face to play good. That's right, that's right, that's right,
that's right, that's right. And hey, and when you play
(08:36):
d hey, it's gonna happen to everybody. But the thing is,
but the fact of the matter is he put that
afide of the ball and almost says this this about
that Patrick, you ain't and him be the king, because
the King was like two years out of swinging trees
in Africa. He wouldn't even playing basketball. He became a
kam in the Pros. It's not like a personal problem.
(08:59):
I don't even know of the finals. All I know
if he put that ass and co at number four
at number four, I got Shaquille O'Neill, Sequille O'Neil at
number four, number four, Shaquille O'Neil. He did dominate on
the off side of the ball. Could nobody stop him. Yeah,
(09:19):
he's one of the most dominated players on the other
side of the ball that the game has ever seen.
Speaker 2 (09:25):
But but you here I mentioned on the office side
of the ball.
Speaker 1 (09:28):
The problem guy with Shaky is he never led the
lead and rebounding with his big ass.
Speaker 2 (09:33):
That just being lazy and he didn't play to defense.
Was shaky. He played defense in big games, but throughout
his career. No, he wasn't. He wasn't.
Speaker 1 (09:44):
He was a player and with his size and strength
he could he could have been the most dominated player
every everything, if if, if you'd put that effort in.
But he didn't put that effort in. So that boy
gave him a number four. Never let the league in
blocks either rebounds come.
Speaker 2 (10:03):
On, you didn't have to intimating he had the other
boy in the wing.
Speaker 1 (10:10):
Yeah, center, Ever, he wouldn't tim they went on on
on the rebounds because he didn't ever have leaguing rebounds.
Speaker 4 (10:20):
So that's a lot.
Speaker 2 (10:22):
Because he was too busy pulling a rim dot.
Speaker 1 (10:27):
At number three at Moses Malone was now talking about
rebounding six times, rebounding champion.
Speaker 2 (10:37):
He's he he's fifth all.
Speaker 1 (10:40):
Time in rebounds. He led his team to a championship.
He had the flip up sevent to a championship. It's
so many times this guy all time. He made all
the with the team two times, three times. Every p
of the league. This guy was legit and he put
(11:01):
that effort in. And when you put that effort in,
you give results. And that's what MOSTI alone did. Quiet
has kept. Like I said, he's one of the best
centers of all time. He will be at a and
I want to thank Mark West a big Mark fas Lie.
You put me and you can put me a game.
I appreciate that.
Speaker 2 (11:16):
Bro. Let's let's keep it moving. Add number two, add
number It's a kee. I mean he, I mean ja.
Speaker 1 (11:25):
He's one of the best centers feet work wise and
all that offensive league a feet work, some of the
best moves you've ever seen.
Speaker 2 (11:35):
But he just playing about him too. Huh what do
you say, did he just play offense? Well?
Speaker 1 (11:44):
Let me finish well by to say is he's one
of the best two way players never played the game. Players,
not just centers, but players. Look, he's tipping steals. That's
that's amazing for a center to be tip all time
and steals and guess what, he's first in blocks. So yes,
he's a two way player. He played both sides of
the ball. That's dominate. That's dominating. Now, if Shaq had that,
(12:08):
Shack could have been probably probably probably the best player.
Speaker 2 (12:12):
But it's too lazy.
Speaker 1 (12:14):
But that's why keevil number two. He is number two, yes,
and at number one, man, I'm sorry, but this guy
right here, hey, what he did? He made these guys
change the game because he was just that dominant. I mean,
and I'm gonna go back to his college days too,
because he only played three years in college because back then,
(12:37):
as a freshman you couldn't play, you couldn't play. He
won all three years, the National Championship Player of the Year.
Then he then he came to the pros. He he
had six rings. He was the all time league scorer
before the Key took that over the last couple of years.
He's third all time in blocks, and he had and
(12:59):
and and he stirred all time in our rebounds. But
he had the most dominating shot that couldn't nobody stop,
and that was that hook. But he just all around
six time champion. I'm six times MVP of the league.
This guy, he he changed the game and that's reason
(13:20):
why he is the best center that I've ever seen. Yes,
Kareem Mai du Jabbar, he was a man and he
deserved all that. And then so that's my five. I'm
gonna say, you started off, you started off fucked up,
ship because and he always does the same bullshit he'll
pull in that college because you know you ain't want
none of the pros, so that somebody's that bullshit.
Speaker 2 (13:43):
You started off fucked up, you ended up strong. I
give you.
Speaker 1 (13:46):
I think the other four had no arguments with which
other four, but your first pick was was fucked up.
Speaker 2 (13:51):
So Joe okay, but.
Speaker 1 (13:54):
That my feedback with that is Jeff because he didn't
win it, and he the team to the finals, but
he didn't have a team. I mean to give him
that help to win it because he didn't have a
team he did. Happened the exact same thing happened in
college with him and the Key he beat He beat
the King in college because you know why, because Georgetown
had a better team and then Houston in the finals,
(14:18):
they had a better team. And that prayer that stepped
up in that finals and Patty you ain't didn't.
Speaker 2 (14:23):
Oh my god, how many years.
Speaker 1 (14:26):
If Patrick you ain't would have had Sam to Sale
that year, they would have walked sad and Sales stepped
up just as good as anybody. But go ahead and
for one year, would you talk about the Knicks. The
Knicks became the Buffalo Bills of the Eastern Conference every
way out that once they would would They didn't make
(14:47):
that fire. They couldn't make it that.

Speaker 1 (14:58):
You better than Joker because he I got I got
a mentioned to you earlier because Joker, yeah, he played.
That's the first thing he paid. Both had the ball.
That's the first thing. Second thing is you will never
see No. Six two guard. God, no, Patrick, you ain't ever.
Speaker 2 (15:16):
I agree with that.
Speaker 4 (15:17):
Hey, Hey he's gonna pull it up.
Speaker 2 (15:19):
Hey, that's one thing.
Speaker 1 (15:23):
One thing though, tweety Joker would not go down in
the paint with Patrick Ewing. He'd be out there busting
his ass because Patrick Ewing with the fish water wouldn't
white boy, hell, he would not be busting you down.
Speaker 2 (15:41):
You wouldn't be talking. You would be you WoT be?
You ain't can't play outside the three point line? You
it's slow as joker. You think Jomer getting past him?
Speaker 1 (15:49):
Right, don't get out of here, Joe Swift when you
had the three, got a hell of a lot more
room to get around somebody.
Speaker 2 (15:57):
Faces and ship like that. But how come we good
get around six two of Caruso? Yeah, I canna get
shoot over him. Tell me, I'm just saying I think ship.
Speaker 1 (16:12):
Yeah, whatever, that's what that's what that's what he do say.
That's some bush you ain't saying. Let's move on number three.
The fact that we don't talk.
Speaker 2 (16:20):
About Patrick Ewan? Is we talking? Is it my turn?
Moving on number three? This go? It's okay, all right,
let's let's hit it. Let's hit this list. Start at
number five.
Speaker 1 (16:31):
Man needs no introduction, full time m v P two
time NBA champion, Will the still Chamberlain coming in at
number five and number five and number five? Yeah, I
got him a number five, I got number five? Hey, Hey,
like Mr West said, I got it, I got five.
(16:54):
They could be at any order they can, Hey, you
could they interchangeable? You know what I'm saying? They could
be the one day, it could be this one, it
could be that. But like I said, like I said,
with mister West is on here, I don't give a
fuck with mister West had to say.
Speaker 2 (17:06):
Wolters still didn't number shut up, shut up?
Speaker 1 (17:09):
He had you said he is fired Joe List he
but fuck him now. That's number five, Fuck him now,
number four, number four. Uh, I got Keen the dream,
you know, one of the best. Kill me, hey, number folk,
number folk. Hey he was at five last time, y'all.
Speaker 4 (17:31):
He moving on up.
Speaker 2 (17:34):
Hey, go cut you down to night too. So King Lajah,
why you know skill big man, two time n b u.
Speaker 1 (17:43):
P two time NBA champion, You know I got him
at my number four spot, number three, twelve time All Star,
eleven time NBA champion, Bill Russell. Don't put Bill Russell
at number three. You can't not not what you with
with the stats and with what he's done and and
what he done with the game. So put Bill Russell
(18:05):
in that number number two for me, big shack. Love
him dominating. Y'all can say with what y'all want to
say about defense whatever, I don't care. He was so
intimidating the man he didn't didn't matter what he did
on the other side.
Speaker 2 (18:23):
That's killing him, y'all killing them.
Speaker 4 (18:29):
He was anyone comes to the paint.
Speaker 1 (18:33):
That's why your other leaker, That's why your other leaker
boy used to be mad about time because the motherfucker
didn't play defense cheese burgers in a halftime ship. Nobody
never could match up to Kobe. He mad at the
whole damn team, get out of here a game every night.
Speaker 2 (18:51):
So that Shaq was just my man. I love him.
Speaker 1 (18:54):
That's why I with him number one Kareema six time champion,
you know, uh six m vps, the only person who
got uh the shares that with with Jordan's uh the
proverbial points go.
Speaker 2 (19:09):
If you know, you got to say, you know, so hey,
I love him, you know, like Mark said.
Speaker 1 (19:15):
Core create the skyhook, you know, and will always go
down and uh infamy as one of the greatest players
ever in my number one center of all time.
Speaker 2 (19:23):
That's it. Let me have it, Joe.
Speaker 1 (19:26):
Somebody, because all I say is about Williams. I mean,
I haven't seen him play. I mean and I just
haven't seen him play. But when I have seen him playing,
he was going up against Carusos and but now I
will give you credit. I will give credit he was killed.
(19:46):
I will say that he was killing the gruso you know,
not like joking. Sorry ass, but that's only but one thing,
one thing, one thing Wes excuse me. One thing Wes
said about Will is that when he went up against Kareem,
he was throwing.
Speaker 2 (20:04):
His ship too.
Speaker 1 (20:05):
You know what I'm saying, he was blocking this ship too,
So you know you got to keep that in mind too.
When he played up and Russell, you know he was
throwing this ship too. That's all I want to say, right, yeah,
what what else you.
Speaker 2 (20:20):
Say? I hate on Will? Now I'm defending it.
Speaker 4 (20:24):
Hate on Will?
Speaker 1 (20:25):
And you say he was killing the motherfuckers. You put
scrub motherfuckers out front of me. Then in game seven
you couldn't putting on fucking Caruso on Will. What would
have killches?
Speaker 2 (20:35):
Buffling ass. So that's why I say, Look, just the
fact that.
Speaker 1 (20:38):
I had to sit there and watch that bullshit tweeting
that mother never missed mind anyway, he will, he will
that live. We've seen that live. We seen that with
her own eyes. Ain't no old video tape, but that
sh that missed me off.
Speaker 2 (20:55):
That Yeah, that it was crazy. Yeah, I ain't never
seen something so ridiculous my life.
Speaker 4 (21:00):
All right, now, here we go, Here we go.
Speaker 2 (21:04):
Ain't agree.
Speaker 1 (21:05):
That's more about Joker hey and the soft ass league
that they playing. Now they all everybody else soltis shit.
All right, here we go, Baby, we're gonna round it
on up, We're gonna bring it on round, and then
we're gonna snap it down. Rides Top five picks Top
five selection of the NBA centers of all time. Now,
(21:26):
one thing you gonna know you're knowing about my list,
you gotta motherfucker bring it on both sides. You gotta
bring it consistently in the in the regular season, you
gotta bring in the playoffs. You gotta be able to
spearhead your team to a championship. So you'll see that
that's consistent among everybody that's on this motherfucking list. I
ain't giving no charity, And because I like the motherfucking
college and all that shit, I'm putting them on there now.
(21:50):
Number five on my list. Great player one of the
greatest players of all time. Average twenty three and ten
for his career, three times Finals MVP, four time champion,
Shaquille O'Neill, the most dominant offensive force of all time.
Speaker 2 (22:10):
Once again, you gotta play both sides.
Speaker 1 (22:13):
And when it was Tatabayed defense in the regular season,
he was shocking the food and Kazama somewhere he was
doing that bullshit. He wouldn't play attention to the defense
in the details, and which is why him and Kobe
stayed into it, and which is why I can't.
Speaker 2 (22:27):
I am forbidden from putting Shaq higher on my list.
Speaker 1 (22:31):
I love Shaq, can't I can't get over the fact
that he never won a rebounding title and he never
won the block tire ever. And when you shot site
seven to two, three hundred founds, the most intimidating thing
on the court, you can't have zeros in those categories.
Speaker 2 (22:47):
So number five, number four.
Speaker 1 (22:51):
While I didn't see him play, I seen enough footage
and I seen enough tape to be able to say
it and equivocally.
Speaker 2 (22:59):
And like I said, you if you line a little.
Speaker 1 (23:01):
Bitty motherfuckers up with this dude, this dude scored one
hundred points in the game. This dude had a season
where he averaged fifty points and thirty rebounds, and for
his career, he averaged thirty points and twenty two rebounds
twenty two point nine, we'll say twenty three for his career,
one time finals the MVP, he won one championship, I
(23:21):
won two NBA titles. Man, he was a ten time
All start I would say, four time MVP. You can't
put together a list of centers and not have fucking
Wilt Chamberlain on the list.
Speaker 2 (23:32):
Right, You just can't.
Speaker 1 (23:35):
You just care now you are you are incomplete if
you put together a fucking list and don't have Will
Chambers on that he Hey, the story of the center
position is not fucking complete if you don't have Will
on that list. Q, you got it right.
Speaker 2 (23:52):
These two motherfuckers got wrong me and you gotta run next.
Number three.
Speaker 1 (24:00):
Probably one of the greatest all around centers of all
time that I've ever seen, offensively defensively, won won two titles,
two MVPs and titles one one MVP of the regular Season,
twelve time All Star, two time Defense Player of the Year,
three time block champion, and, as Martin said earlier, career leader.
Speaker 2 (24:25):
In blocks all time.
Speaker 1 (24:27):
And look, I will tell you one of the things
that that's that's etched my memory forever is that motherfucking
dreams shape that that nig Can put on David Robinson
in the yet, in the finals, in the West County
Finals and then winning the win championships. I've never seen
a center have a great a greater series than what
the keim Elajawan had that series. My number three center
(24:48):
of all time, the Keem the dream of Lojahwan. Hey,
he didn't he won, He won in pros, got two,
got back to back clutch c team. He didn't win
in coutas. Like I said, he was two years off
of the swing on treating ship and he didn't he
was playing basketball. He was playing soccer and ship barefoot
pass you and just put that ass, keep it go
kill a movie.
Speaker 2 (25:08):
So you didn't make it.
Speaker 1 (25:10):
But when he came back and did it pros now
number two center of all time, I meant like these
these next two are just you don't even have to
put any thought to it. I don't think he Buffles
had him on the list. None Bumbles had any list.
Why can you put together list?
Speaker 2 (25:28):
And I have an.
Speaker 1 (25:28):
Eleven time fucking champion, how Be awards, eleven times All NBA,
twelve time All Star, and for his career averaged twenty
two and a half rebounds per game and coached the
team to a championship in a time when the racial
hatred and the things that are going on the country
(25:50):
and in Boston in particular. He rolled above all that
to with eleven fucking championship. And you guys do a
discservice to your race by not having Bill Russell on
my number two center of all time.
Speaker 2 (26:06):
You do together, Yeah you got. I'm not saying as
a racial elementary.
Speaker 1 (26:18):
What I'm saying is is that you gotta put what
happens off the court impacts of what happens on the court,
and he rolled them up all that ship.
Speaker 2 (26:25):
Forget about number two cents all time, Bill.
Speaker 1 (26:28):
Russell, and you ain't seeing one motherfucking game, but keep
it moving. One motherfucking game. You don't see what Mark neither,
but you still respect keep moving. I agree now his
last one. It's the same as everybody listen. I mean,
(26:49):
you cannot deny the accomplishments of this man. I will
tell you we got him, and we're talking about him
here as the greatest center of our time. He you
have to get enough consideration for probably the greatest fucking
player of all time when you're taking consideration now, this
is where where it's appropriate to bring it in what
he did in college. Oh it's not appropriate. Not as appropriate, Yeah,
(27:13):
not's appropriate. Consistent with what he did career. Look ahead,
it's consistent. It's the sixth time motherfucking champion for his
career average twenty four point six points a game, average
eleven rebounds, and had the most unstoppable moves in the
history of basketball play for the Lakers.
Speaker 2 (27:36):
You know, so I don't hold that against them, but
I would tell you.
Speaker 1 (27:40):
Not only the greatest center of our time, one of
the greatest players of our time, Kareema du Jabbai. You
gotta give it to him. That's about number one center
of all time. Hey, hey, book that ship. Hey, when
and when you when you go out and listen to
the pungits that really know what the you're talking about,
their list is gonna mirror mind. It's gonna be just
like mine at the elements and the same players that
I have a mind. That's what you're gonna hear on
(28:01):
the puns that know.
Speaker 2 (28:02):
What well, well if hey, if if they're like seventy
eighty years old.
Speaker 4 (28:07):
Hey, yeah, they're gonna be because they've seen them.
Speaker 1 (28:10):
No, mother player, ain't never seen the two people. You
can't tell me ship because I seen him saying highlights.
Tell me you see it the highlights. Of course they're
gonna show all the great highlights. But seeing highlights, you
you cannot stand judge the players and tell me how
you want.
Speaker 4 (28:26):
To put something.
Speaker 2 (28:27):
And I'm taking tell you this, look, look, look that look.
Speaker 1 (28:30):
Look you say you can't judge, look, talk about the
motherfucker scored one hundred points of the game with no
three the motherfucker points.
Speaker 2 (28:37):
He averaged fifty points and thirty rebounds for the entire season.
What was it in that game? Hey? And that game
is scored a hundred points? What was the tallest prayer
on other teams like six? Can you tell me that? Hey?
I looked up. I looked it up. He was six
(28:59):
three six, Shut up. Their biggest guy was six three boy. Hey,
y'all got to quit hating on Will. Hey, Will was
the motherfucking man. Will was the dog. He's a dog
of all dogs, the dog of our dogs.
Speaker 4 (29:20):
And uh l.
Speaker 1 (29:22):
He led played a year before a couple of times
he was lead Leagan blocks two seasons.
Speaker 2 (29:30):
Was great. It is right and women he had said
a thousands something.
Speaker 4 (29:33):
Yeah, and women.
Speaker 2 (29:36):
The fact he kept up with count the count of
it was right. Hey, now if we had a list
for that, we have this for that. Hey he remember
one ship. I'm just saying.
Speaker 4 (29:50):
Exactly exactly.
Speaker 1 (29:52):
Yeah. I think I think experienced on the same on
off the court was equal to experience on he was down.
He's a player, a dominant player on both sides. Okay,
all right, that's the list.
Speaker 3 (30:08):
I put my stats, I put Yoki stats against anybody
else's stats, and he on this list.
Speaker 2 (30:14):
He give me on this list.
Speaker 1 (30:17):
I'm still waiting for you to give me this task.
When Cruising was guarding him, please can you give me
this task? With Caruso was guarding him, a six two guard?
Please a sinner, they said, He continued.
Speaker 5 (30:33):
What is looksed all the picks that me, Rbby and
Quinn that came up with You tell me one player
that Crusoe could have.
Speaker 2 (30:43):
Guarded on those lists. Just give me none, none at
this shot that would have worked out on him. I
ain't a big fan of pat Out.
Speaker 1 (30:57):
And what I would tell you is this ahead, right,
don't you say what you guys I say after I'm
telling you I'm gaging up on Big Pat. Big Pat
played in the era where it was the best centers too,
so keep that mind too. The eighties was the best
time for I mean with the best era for figuring.
Speaker 2 (31:16):
I'm and he did.
Speaker 1 (31:17):
He did doing that era, So look that up and
look and this, and this is being real talk no
disrespect to Big Pat. On my list, he's top ten
all time, said he and I will tell you and
I'll tell you this, he's ahead of Joker on my list.
There's no way in the world I would have took Joker.
Speaker 2 (31:35):
A motherfucker. I only played one side of the ball
over the batter ewning not.
Speaker 4 (31:40):
To stats alone, stands alone. He just domblading on stats alone.
Speaker 2 (31:45):
So so so stats are good when you're talking Joker, right,
So stats don't count the same for will none of them.
Speaker 4 (31:54):
Put him against them?
Speaker 2 (31:54):
To No, he's not. He gonna be sitting on the
fucking bench because he can't be none of them.
Speaker 4 (31:59):
You can put his staff against anybody Joker.
Speaker 2 (32:03):
Joker wouldn't have made in the eighties.
Speaker 1 (32:04):
I'm telling you right now, Joker wouldn't the eighties average
when it was not bus centers. Please across Portland. He's
the best center in the current they game.
Speaker 2 (32:18):
But you know, like you know, like I do.
Speaker 1 (32:20):
We all have our reservations by the current game. That's
all I'm gonna say. I'm gonna rest of my case
on that. We all have our reservation. But look, hey,
great athletes, super athletic. Uh, they can do things that
you've never seen before, right hand, left hand, everything as fired,
the toughest factor and playing physical deep in the football basketball, No,
that don't happen in the current current day, don't have it.
Speaker 4 (32:43):
So in the current day, what players? So what what centers?
You said? Joking? The only center that can play back
in the eighties, he's the only.
Speaker 1 (32:55):
One players that can't play, none of them. It's only
a couple. I mean, well in today's game, it's only
a couple of true centers period. I mean it's it's
only a couple of true centers period in the game
right now. But when if B plays physical, I think
(33:15):
he could have played back then. But that's when he
choose to play physical, you know, always you know, playing
he get caught up and shooting threes and all that stuff.
But it ain't it ain't too many centers right now
that could have played back at the age.
Speaker 2 (33:29):
I'm telling you right now, hey, none of.
Speaker 1 (33:30):
These motherfuckers are my top ten, none of them. I
think West unselling something others before I take it ok
and in B and some the other week motherfuckers telling
I kind of I kind of show up. I think
big Willis Reed limping off the bench before I take
a joker and taking beat. So I ain't it ain't
nothing about nothing else, no no color, no nothing, cause
(33:51):
I was put him beat in the same bucket and
then he ship sometimes he ain't never healthy, he want
to shoot too many threes and on defense when he
had a big man like joker, you play soft.
Speaker 2 (34:01):
So that's what I gotta say.
Speaker 1 (34:02):
So all right, hey, well we beat We beat this
one up. We hit it heavy. Hey, we put together
our list. Audience subscribers, check it out and let us
