Speaker 3 (00:54):
Thompson twin Man big game against the Cells, Tan three
nine and four with a game winner. After the game,
he said he felt like COVID that's.
Speaker 1 (01:04):
What you know what I'm saying, your flow the euro man.
Speaker 3 (01:10):
But big fan of his, big fan of his brothers too.
But shout out to the Rockets man. He's been a
key piece to them on the defensive end. On the
offensive end. Big night, big night for him. I'm looking
for a great future out of this kid.
Speaker 4 (01:25):
Man.
Speaker 2 (01:25):
You know, I'm a great player man on both sides
of the ball.
Speaker 1 (01:29):
Like you said, them boys different and he you know,
he definitely been having his way in the major way
with them Rockets doing everything they doing, stupid athletic, crazy
on both like you say, both ends of the floor,
crazy rebound. You know, I liked them boys offensive rebound
and just rebound in general, but they've been on that
offensive glass. Boy, watch your head, you know me. I
had to go with SG a career high fifty four
(01:52):
against Utah, and I feel like everything he doing, he
just just gone ahead, just just continue to stamp that
seal of approval that he about to be the MVP.
I chose him to be that last year. He didn't
get it this year. I feel like with the team
doing as well as they doing, having the winning streaks
and you know, being the number one in the West
like they are, as long as they continue to do
(02:14):
this and it's clear, it's clear that he gonna continue
to do what he doing, Nobody in the NBA can't
really stop him. Bro. The man had thirty points over
sixty some times last year he is showing that he
said it. Nobody can stop him getting to the paint
and like to me, it's like nobody can stop him
from getting puck buckets when he really just put his
mind to it. So you know, he averaging thirty two
(02:36):
on the on the season, five rebounds, six assists on
fifty two from the field and thirty five from the three.
Bro come on, dog, come on, doll Man is out
there going through his thing, going through his thing. We're
gonna move on. You want to say something, boy Sjao before.
Speaker 2 (02:51):
Before man that boy you know what I'm.
Speaker 1 (02:54):
Yeah, he is, he is definitely him right now. All right,
we get to the game last night, man, last night
at the Lakers go out East. They lost to the
Sixers one eighteen to one oh four Brian thirty one
and nine, Ruey thirteen and two, Austin Reeves thirteen and eight.
(03:15):
What you think of the game? Man, Big Maxie came
out with no no Big Joe Ellen b he should
be coming back soon. But Maxi sody no PG. Yeah
in no PG. My bet no PG either. But MAXI
said I got it fellas forty wader forty three of them.
Speaker 3 (03:30):
Things these are like this, This is my thing with
the Lakers. These are the games that's must wins, you
know what I'm saying. In the position they in, these
are must wins. Like Lebron is forty. Now, come on,
his birthday was in December.
Speaker 2 (03:47):
He's forty. He got thirty one and nine.
Speaker 3 (03:51):
Yeah, you don't even see a d name on on
the scorings list.
Speaker 1 (03:56):
And he just had forty and twenty the other day.
Speaker 2 (03:58):
Yeah, like like this, this is the inconsistency.
Speaker 3 (04:01):
Man, When you got an Ad and Lebron, you got
to build something around if you want to win anything.
Maybe they organization don't want to win or compete for
a championship. They just selling out game after game because
they gonna sell out every game. Everybody's gonna come least
the Lebron and the Lakers play. But man, these are
the games, especially man, no mb no, Paul Jeorde, MAXI
(04:24):
go off for forty three, ohbreak, you know what I'm saying,
he twenty and eight. Man, they just played a good
game and it wasn't a close game. They was getting
their ass.
Speaker 1 (04:34):
Kick day Joe Montar has been balling.
Speaker 3 (04:39):
I like Kelly, Yeah, they was getting their ass kicked,
but shout out to the seventy six if going to
handle the business. I know they trying to get healthy,
hopefully get healthy in their second half to make a
push for the playoffs. But the more disappoint side, it
was just the Lakers. This is a game that you
gotta win.
Speaker 1 (04:56):
Hey man, shout out Yabu Slee too man. Like we
said last time, it's coming over from France and getting
that second shot at the league. That boy ain't disappointing.
He killing out there any time. Yeah, A d with
the too small after hand, two hands for safety too
dump telling him, I say, look, man, you big fella
ain't out here playing around. He making the most of
this opportunity, like drumming down and be down. He's like,
(05:18):
oh okay, it's my turn. Let me get busy. I'm
shut out to him.
Speaker 2 (05:23):
I like him.
Speaker 1 (05:24):
Houston beat Atlanta last night, Rockets eight and two in
the last ten and won four in a row. Shane
Goon LP Shang change Gun had eighteen and ten, You
had Jalen Green with you know, he explodes with twenty
five and seven and eight A men Thompson eleven and
five and then the bogus thing about that. You hear
(05:45):
about the Atlanta man, My boy Jalen Johnson, who's been
killing He done for the year, gotta have social shoulder surgery,
bro done for this year, done out and he was
borderline is he gonna be or any is he gonna
be a starting out?
Speaker 3 (06:00):
We didn't like career year. He's having a great year.
But man, shout out to them Rockets. Man, everybody is
waiting on them to fall and take that big time
hit they've been handling in business. They played hard against
the good teams and the bad teams. It's all go now.
(06:21):
They beating good teams, they beating bad teams. They taking
care of business. They well deserved supposed to be in
the top three and that's what they've been in all year.
Speaker 2 (06:30):
Shout out to e May. He got these guys focused.
Speaker 3 (06:34):
Like every game I see them play, man, I love
watching them play.
Speaker 1 (06:38):
Like man, shout out to Shout out to Dylan Brooks
the other day, Man, I feel like people be forgetting
when when you get to the league, you got to
play a role. Man. That boy was Player of the
Year in the Pac twelve with a pack ten whatever
it is out there. When he was in Oregon, man
had thirty six the other day off ten threes, bro
ten to fourteen from three thirty six buckets. And I
(07:00):
know his role ain't to go out there and get buckets,
but you know what I'm saying, shout out to him.
Just you know, sometime you gotta pop out and remind
him I can get a bucket too. I see you,
I see you, young Dylan Brooks. That that was impressive.
Ten trade balls. That was impressive. I know this league
they shoot a lot, so it's a little easier, but
still ten is ten, my boy? You feel man?
Speaker 3 (07:18):
Like I said, shout out to them Rockets. Man, they
got a lot of talent on the bench, guys who
come in and play. Bari Smith, I guy went more.
Just different guys, man. He may got the whole team,
the organization looking totally different.
Speaker 4 (07:35):
Man.
Speaker 3 (07:36):
I'm so proud of that team. If I'm proud of
any team this year, it's them Houston Rockets.
Speaker 1 (07:41):
All right, Moving on a long Listen, this was you
had to stay up late last night. I was in
this thing. I was, I was, I might didn't make
it last night when this was going on Blake and
Gay it started to get real late and I made
it to the end. But you know it was tough.
But I can't last say I didn't fall asleep a
time until you know me, I'll do it. But Trailblazers
knocked off the bucks last night one twenty five to
(08:04):
one twelve, and Dames returned back up to the Pacific northwest.
Jannis went crazy, crazy, nerf rimming that thing, nerf rimming
that thing. Bro Dame had twenty and six. For a
minute that I thought Dame was about to turn back
into Dame town. He had like a little quick start,
a little bit Big Lopez eleven and three, Denny Avia
(08:28):
Bro Denny Yavia was hooping thirty and nine of them.
Anthony Simons, we already know he a bucket twenty five
and seven. And Big Aiden, when Big Aiden go go
and get you twenty twenty one and fourteen, that's what
you need out the big fella. That's the big fellaw
that everybody want to see every time when he out
there hooping and being dominant, going in the post, and
I don't even mind when he hitting the little MIDI
(08:49):
jump or even a three or two. When you down
in the paint doing what you supposed to do. So
you know, what I'm saying, shout out to him on
twenty and ten plus game.
Speaker 2 (08:57):
Yeah, I thought it was a good game.
Speaker 3 (09:00):
Something just gave me the feeling that Portland's gonna win
this game.
Speaker 2 (09:03):
When the game kind.
Speaker 3 (09:03):
Of started off, it just just gave me a feeling
how Portland was just just into it.
Speaker 4 (09:09):
Uh.
Speaker 3 (09:09):
These one of them games, like teams like the bucks Man,
you just can't afford to just let go, you know
what I'm saying. These are the games that you get
really going and get get right. But we gotta bucks
gotta figure it out. They gotta get it all the
way right. We're seeing their starting lineup Middleton, they waiting
on him to come back. But yeah, these are the
(09:31):
games that they just gotta figure out. Because I got
I got big hope in the bucks Man. I think
the bucks is gonna surprise a lot of people come
playoff time. And you know, you just got to get
it right. You can't lose games like this to Portland.
Speaker 1 (09:45):
Yeah, you this is definitely a game that you would assume,
especially when you look at the two teams and who
they are and who they've been this season that Milwaukee with.
You know, this is a game you look at the
you know the schedule and say that's a that's a
gettable game we should pretty much get. And when you
lose those type of games, like you said, they count
up at the end and then you'd be looking at
the scenario that you wouldn't be in if you didn't
lose these type of games. So moving on, I know
(10:08):
you like this type of tar. This is the Rubs
hands like bird Man's area where we talk about the
trade deadline is fastly approaching. Bro it's the twenty ninth.
The dead line is the sixth, and now we have
a Fox who has entered the chat man. I have
no clue why. I have no Well, unless it was
from his part, where he's from his part, I can
(10:30):
understand that he's looking like it's crazy. It's crazy going on,
and then the things they doing so okay. If he
asking Foul, I can understand. I couldn't understand for the
world while the Kings would want to do it. But
if he's asked Fou, I understand it. Apparently he want
to go to the Spurs and he he he trying
to make his next move, his best move, gonna get
with that big a, not that black what we said
(10:51):
you got any sense in the world, any moving parts
better be trying to migrate down town Santa Table.
Speaker 3 (10:57):
Man, I want to too, you know what I'm saying,
down there with that alien man, get down there with
big Wemby.
Speaker 1 (11:03):
How you think that'll look cp him? The Castle kid like?
Cause Castle, listen, Castle about to be one of them
sooner or later, sooner than later. And then you got
the other pieces they got with Visell, with Kelden Johnson,
with the soa Shane kid like. What you think about that?
Speaker 3 (11:21):
I think that'll be a great move if the Spurs
can get him, I think it'll be great. I think
it'll be real good for Cep to move to the
second string. He can really control the pace. You know
what I'm saying, Why stuff don't go down? Having dearon
Fox starting then bringing CPN. I think that'll be I
think that'll be a great move. So I hope, I
(11:43):
hope that happened. Man, that'll be a good two man
punch right there.
Speaker 1 (11:46):
BD wants to know. Do we think Houston would move
a first pound, a first round pick, Fred van Vliet
and Reed Shephard for Fox. Ooh, that's a lot.
Speaker 2 (11:58):
I would.
Speaker 1 (12:00):
I mean they got a lot of young people though,
So I mean, I mean, you know that not know
what that Fred van.
Speaker 3 (12:07):
Fleet he hometown, so you know, I'm always rooting for Fred.
But hey, darn Fox with Jason Green with the defense.
Speaker 1 (12:18):
Getting real over there, crazy fast stuff going on. It
that that that that's a scenario that could. I mean,
when you're a young team like that, you got assets,
you know what I'm saying. You never know. And then
dearon Fox like he and his prime bro averaging over
twenty six points for like the last two three years
or something like he's in his prime and I feel him.
He feel he probably feels like you have more All
(12:39):
Stars under his belt. And that's because the Kings aren't winning,
and you know he way up up north and don't
nobody really get to see you gotta stay up late,
like we're talking about with that game last night. So
he's like, when you look at this league, you know,
the fast paced, the flashy everything, he brings all of that,
you just don't get to see it a whole whole lot.
So I feel, uh, Jimmy Butler, they say they say
(13:05):
Jimmy turned around, walk out of practice dollar when he
found out even.
Speaker 3 (13:10):
Yeah, I think they should if that's the way they feel,
they should just send them home until he gets traded,
like just.
Speaker 1 (13:17):
Going, well, that's the new scenario. Now he's been suspended indefinitely,
and you know the deadline ain't but you know, eight
nine days away, seven eight days away.
Speaker 3 (13:26):
But like suspending him and all that stuff, you just
being extra man, just leave him alone.
Speaker 2 (13:32):
He's not going.
Speaker 3 (13:33):
He's not one of these typical players that you can
sit here and all that. He's a veteran that's been
in this league a long time. Like, let's just going
just stop all the bickering and the petty stuff and
let's just get them on out of there and move on.
Like I said, these teams and all that stuff, be
knowing in the summertime that this is not gonna work,
(13:54):
especially when guys don't sign extensions and stuff like that,
this is not gonna work.
Speaker 1 (13:59):
So you're, well, I think in this situation he was
he was seeking an extension and they didn't give it.
So either still didn't work.
Speaker 3 (14:07):
Even with that, Like even if you seeking one and
you ain't get it, you know that, Like like he
has a point and they has a point too. It's
a point on two sides. Man, he took these team
to two championships. This team is bigger than one player.
Is about the organization. So like, let's just stop all
(14:30):
the bickering and the petty shit and just gonna get
them up out of there and just let him go
home keep his check because eventually he gonna get that
money back.
Speaker 2 (14:37):
Anyway, Well you.
Speaker 1 (14:38):
Know how that go to the NBPA fil of grievance agent.
You're gonna get something back, you know. But what do
you think about this? Is? You know, it's rumors swirling
in the atmosphere that that that Philly could be looking
to do a swap for Jimmy, Jimmy Butler for Paul George.
What do you think of that?
Speaker 3 (14:57):
I love Paul George and I love Jimmy Butler, but
I don't think Miami is I don't think Paul George
is the type of player that should be in Miami.
Speaker 2 (15:12):
Like he's he's an.
Speaker 3 (15:14):
Injury prone player Miami, Like, if you injured, we gonna
see if you can do it. If you can't do it,
then you can't last. You ain't gonna you can't be here.
So I don't think he's the type of player I
think Paul George needs to be like in the organization
that can really watch him and and cater to his
injuries and stuff like that. Miami Heat is an organization
(15:38):
that turns you into Superman, gonna We're gonna get the
best you there possibly be.
Speaker 1 (15:43):
That's why I think he could benefit from there because
you know, like the how we prevent injuries black you
be in that weight room. I mean, some stuff you
can't prevent, but like you could do, you know what
I'm saying, Like, I feel like that's one of the
things that Miami do well. They training program and they
conditioning program is to keep you in the best shape
you can be in, so you could, you know, prevent injury. Now,
(16:03):
nothing can't completely prevent you from having injuries, obviously, but
I'm saying they put you in the best shape, you
know what I'm saying that you've been in as far
as your basketball body. And most players that play there,
as opposed to when they playing other places, they in
the best shape in Miami and whatever. You know what,
some guys just like that that they stay in shape,
but not everybody. And you know, Miami gonna bring the
(16:25):
best out of you. But we'll see. All this is
you know rumors. Who knows.
Speaker 3 (16:29):
I like it for seventy six ers, I don't. I
don't really care for it for Miami.
Speaker 1 (16:35):
What about you see Bradley Bell going anywhere? Zach Levine
going anywhere? Jordan Clarkson, Yeah, I like.
Speaker 3 (16:44):
If they make that fourteen trade or something. I like
seeing Bradley Bell in Milwaukee. You know what I'm saying.
Really don't care for him. Only good thing about Bradley
Bill going to the Bulls that I heard is Billy Donovan.
You know, he played with him, and I love Bradley
Beal going to the Miami Heat. You know, no disrespect
(17:05):
to Tyler Hero, but Bradley Bill is a better player
than Tyler Hero.
Speaker 1 (17:10):
To me, uh, Jack.
Speaker 3 (17:14):
Levine, I want Zach Levine to go somewhere. I don't
know if Detroit is the place though, Like I've been
hearing Detroit, I don't know if Detroit is the place
for a Zach Levine. To me, I think he can
do bigger better, you know, I think he'll do great
with the Lakers. I think he'll do great with some
(17:35):
other team outside Detroit. I don't think that's the player
for Detroit. Who else you say, Jordan Clarkson Jordan Clarkson,
like he's a wild card. I think he can do
great coming off the bench for a lot of team teams,
like a lot of I think I think that'll be
a big pick up. So wherever, like any contendent teams,
(17:58):
I think he'll be great. Like I can see him
with the next I can see him with different teams
that'll be great for him.
Speaker 1 (18:05):
So uh yeah, he's going, like you said, here a
wild card. Here. You can suit him up anywhere and
he gonna go hoop. And he had bucket anywhere. And
he played hard all the time, same way with the
intensity and all that.
Speaker 2 (18:16):
So ain't he tough? And he ready to square up
all the time.
Speaker 1 (18:19):
He gonna throw out instantly? He ain't He got so
many pictures? Where what's up? Hold up? Hold up? Holo?
We got some some Twitter activity to Rich and d
Miles for Shure, both role models from me, growing I
love you both, keep representing. I appreciate you, Jay, I
appreciate your respect. You feel old talking about growing up
the miles. Oh now me, you're let's let's let's let's
(18:41):
go to the to the Western Conference standards. Man, Let's
look at some standings because that made me feel old
right there. Look at here he is on OKC thunder
with all the draft picks and all young players. They
still sitting at number one. Black got them. We just
got talking about them. Rockets, them email Ler Rockets. Yeah,
(19:02):
mymph grids number three, thirty one and sixteen. I'm toped
three balling being at Denver Lakers at five, despite everything
being said, everything being talked about, they sit at five,
the Clippers at six, Timberwolves seven, Sons, Mavericks and Kings
still there fighting. Doug Christy then kept them in a fight.
(19:26):
What do you think it is? The Timberwolves then moved
up a little teen ninety bit.
Speaker 2 (19:31):
Yeah, that's why I was saying about the Lakers.
Speaker 3 (19:33):
Man, when you give games up like this, one game
that you that you should have won early in the
season can determine whether you be in fourth, fifth, or
all the way in nineteenth.
Speaker 2 (19:44):
You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 3 (19:45):
So these are the games that especially in this Western Conference,
these are the games. These are the up and down games.
It changed every week. It changed by the day of
you losing the game and winning the game. So the
teams that sposed to be beat you need to be
them team. Uh, you know, it ain't nothing changed. Like
I say, everything, I'm missing this man. I really want
(20:06):
to see Wemby in them playoffs. But I'm proud of
the Kings. You know, after firing their coach and kind
of getting back on track, they put themselves right back
in the contention to player. You know, they win a
couple more games, they can be in the fourth field spot.
So shout out to them Kings for getting back in
the in the race. The Mavericks has been going through something.
(20:27):
They got a lot of injuries, They've been losing a
lot of close games, and they steady slipping out the rankings.
Speaker 2 (20:34):
Hate to see it. They was one of my early
preseason picks.
Speaker 3 (20:38):
But yeah, shout out to them Sons getting back in it,
you know what I'm saying. Slowly climbing and maybe they
can get back in the race.
Speaker 1 (20:47):
Straight up, straight, Let's move to the east. Man move
to the east. From then, Cavaliers holding strong, keeping their
position at number one. Everybody thought it was a fluke.
They just had a high start, but they keeping pace.
They didn't you know, the play that dipped a little
with a little bit with Mobley out of the lineup,
and I think he should be back, but they still
(21:08):
holding down top spot. You already know the Celtics ain't
gonna be far off. They thirty two and fifteen, New
York Knicks thirty one and sixteen. The Bucks then got
to that top of that top four. They had four
pacers and got back up in there. Black. At five,
they had dropped down a little bit. They slid back
up the Heat at six, we know the Magic. They
slid down with all our injuries. But now they move
(21:30):
and they were like eight last week. I think they
moved up one spot to seven. Pistons eight. The Hawks
now losing Jalen Johnson, hate that for him. DeAndre Hunter
had a big game the other day though career high,
so maybe they helped him help them with him being
able to be back and hoping Bulls at ten. What
stands out to you here, Black.
Speaker 3 (21:49):
My concern really for the Eastern Conference is really the
Heat and the Magic. The Magic has a bunch of
injuries that they slowly slipping a little bit. It's a
tougher fire because they're not fully equipped with all their
weapons and just the heat. What they're going through with
Jimmy Butler that's just put that dark cloud.
Speaker 1 (22:08):
Over their heads.
Speaker 3 (22:09):
So they losing a few games that they probably wouldn't
have lost if he was there. Uh So, just seeing
them slowly just kind of trinkle down, and you know
you got teams like the Hawks to piss and the Bulls,
you know, home reader getting them spots that they in.
Speaker 1 (22:24):
Yeah. No, it's gonna be exciting down the stretch to
see who in the play in, who locked into the playoffs,
and who's sitting on the outside looking in. Let's get
to this all start voting, man, because it's all start
coming up fast, fast, fast. We're gonna be out there
in the back you're going through you know what I'm saying.
We coming out there to tell them when they got
huh yeah, yeah, you know, we're definitely gonna be out there.
You know where your dj D Knights at. You're gonna
(22:46):
be looking like that, don't you know that that boy
got the dj D Nice dj D Niles. Hey, can
we get the graphic thing there? It is? They is?
This is the Oh, these the final voting results. This
show you why who got what? Just don't tell us
who the subs gonna who the reserve is gonna be though,
what's stand out here to you? Black Hey? I tell
(23:08):
you what surprised me was that New York City stand up.
Remember last week, it looked like LaMelo was running away
with the starting point guard position litl Lowe Charlotte big time.
LaMelo was getting getting he was leading all Eastern Conference guards.
And I guess you gotta shout out Cleveland fans too, though.
You gotta shout out Cleveland too because they because because
(23:28):
next thing, you know, the last the last Telly is
Donovan Mitchell and Jalen Brunson are the starters with the
with the most votes, so you know you gotta you gotta.
Speaker 3 (23:39):
Gotta on the Eastern side, I definitely feel like Jalen
Brunson and and Donovan Mitchell, they overwalled makeup definitely should
have been the starters. Nothing against Melo because he's it's
it's average. Is it's better than Brushton and a third
with the with what Brunston doing plus the winning of
(24:01):
what the Knicks doing being in third, I definitely feel
like he deserved.
Speaker 2 (24:05):
I feel like it's a clean starting lineup.
Speaker 1 (24:07):
For the East.
Speaker 2 (24:07):
I feel like everybody that's that should have been their
starting lineup.
Speaker 1 (24:11):
You know, I mean, I mean, yeah, I agree everybody
that deserve it. I'm just saying. I still I wouldn't
have been mad at Lamello's you know how that goes.
This is the fan voting and all that. That's what
that's what really makes it.
Speaker 3 (24:22):
You know, it's a fan piece of it. But yeah,
you know what I'm saying. But I'm happy to see
it's two knicks in the starting lineup. We haven't seen
that in years, you know what I'm saying. Shout out
to Cat, shout out to Bronson. But I felt like
this was the perfect starting lineup. I think this was
posed to man now in the West. You know, I understand,
(24:46):
I understand, you know Steph, and I understand Lebron, I
understand kd Ah. But man, you got you got, you got,
you got John morn out there. You know, you know
what I'm saying. But you just said you understand Steph.
Speaker 1 (25:04):
You understand the them the only one of them three
where they had to come off the other two MVP candidates.
Speaker 3 (25:11):
Yeah, that's what I'm saying. That's why I said.
Speaker 1 (25:13):
I'm about to say, like hold on now, because as
g a joker, like they moveable objects with what they
doing right now.
Speaker 3 (25:22):
Yeah, you know, nothing against Steph, but I thought that
giant Steph fols have been the back court man John
them third. They went from not even making the playoffs
to they third led by John Morant. You know what
I'm saying, Uh, who else? I got a brain freeze
now I can't even think of who else? But I
respect it, man, you know what I'm saying. This is
(25:42):
the this is the turning of the tide. These guys
has been in the All Star Game and been starters
for since forever, since since Q were tired, you.
Speaker 1 (25:51):
Know, and they and they coming off doing what they
did in the Olympics. Yeah, they also still doing what
they're doing.
Speaker 3 (25:57):
Yeah, they've been all started since q o astratired. So
you know, I respect it. It's all good. I think
this is definitely a dope, dope starting lineup though.
Speaker 1 (26:08):
Yeah that's cool. We could uh let's move on to
the reserves. Is gonna get picked them ONK because I
don't like how you just try to throw all that
shade on me and my age and you know what
I'm saying, Like, I don't know what you're talking about,
but the uh, the reserves, like we could look at
the we could look at the East. The likely picks,
(26:31):
as they say, could possibly be Paolo. Polo came back
in enough time. I feel we got a screenshot of
the reserves, a graphic. I don't think we do. I
won't got a graphical reserve. Okay, Paolo Evan Mobley, there
you go. Some of the names are still up there.
(26:52):
But Paolo, Evan Mobley, Jalen Brown, Franz Wagner, LaMelo, Trey Young,
and then in the West wenby A d. Shane Goon,
Jalen Jaylen Williams from ok C, Luca and Edwards Kyrie,
John Moran. Who who who you taking? Who your East reserves?
(27:14):
What you take?
Speaker 4 (27:15):
Uh?
Speaker 3 (27:15):
My East reserves. I'm definitely taking Evan Mobley.
Speaker 4 (27:21):
Uh.
Speaker 2 (27:22):
I'm definitely taking Jalen Brown.
Speaker 1 (27:25):
Mm hmmm, uh I'm.
Speaker 2 (27:30):
Kind of uh I might.
Speaker 3 (27:33):
I'm definitely taking Lamello, them them them, my definitely uh my.
My toss ups is Polo Ka, Daris Garland.
Speaker 2 (27:49):
Who else I think BAM should make it?
Speaker 1 (27:55):
You know, out of East i'ma go I'm going Paolo Mobley,
Brown and then little Mellow Trey mm hmmm. Damn, yes,
(28:17):
that's my seven. I'm going I'm going dang in no
disrespect to whoever I left off, like Tyler Hero, Darius Garland,
Tyrese No. I love them guys, but I think Trey Young,
I think the Hawks deserve a one All Star, and
I thought it would have been between Trey and Jalen,
but I would say Lamello, Trey Young, Lillard, Kay Cunningham,
(28:42):
and then the other three is Paolo Mobley and JB. Yes,
that's why I'm going out west. I like that. That's
that's that's dope.
Speaker 3 (28:49):
Yeah, Dave, Lillard, Tray Young, I think that's that gives
Garland a short end of the stick.
Speaker 2 (28:55):
Uh, Jaylen Brown, k hell Evan Mobley.
Speaker 3 (29:04):
Like I said, to throw another big man in there,
that might shorten somebody up.
Speaker 1 (29:07):
It's probably gonna be banned for me. Then, So where
you going out West? Out West?
Speaker 4 (29:14):
Uh?
Speaker 3 (29:14):
Definitely John Morant Uh a Houston Rocket player gotta go.
And if I had to pick anybody, it's probably gonna
be Jalen.
Speaker 4 (29:24):
Green h A d mm hmmm Wemby Wemby, Uh got
one more.
Speaker 1 (29:40):
Hardened, Luca Kyrie, d Book Fox.
Speaker 3 (29:46):
I don't think Luca. I don't think Lucas should make
it this year. He missed a lot again, heard a
lot be heard a lot? Uh Man, you say already?
Speaker 2 (29:58):
And Elvis that's my say him and Elvison. So at
Jai wenby a d Jalen Green and who else? Kyrie James, Yeah,
(30:23):
I put a clip in James Harden.
Speaker 1 (30:27):
Okay, So my seven, I'm going Victor winbyama a d
Jalen Williams from ok C. And then I'm going and Edwards,
Ja Morant, James Harden and between Shane Goon and Kyrie,
(30:56):
I'm going to go. I'm gonna go Kyrie, but I
think they may take Shane Goon in the game.
Speaker 3 (31:05):
Actually a rocket, guys, ago second, that's what I'm saying,
A rocket gotta go.
Speaker 1 (31:10):
That's why, matter of fact, that's why I'm gonna take
Kyrie out. Im gonna go Shane Goon right there, just
because of that, Just because of that. And then let
me ask you this, what you think about the Dunk Contest? Though?
You got you got, you got four, you got four
guys announced. Now we got the returning champ two time
chap right here, Orlando Magic, you know I Ciola Magic
(31:32):
g Team Mac McClung. Then you got young stars Stephanie
Castle from the Spurs and my Taes Bazillis from the Bulls,
both rookies. Then you got Andre Jackson. And let me
say this, bro, I saw a the highlight real Andre Jackson.
I think it was from college or wherever it was from.
(31:54):
Boy was booming that thing. He got, He got some,
he got explosive hops.
Speaker 3 (31:59):
I think once you win the dunk contest twice, you
shouldn't be in it no more.
Speaker 1 (32:07):
Hey, man, listen to young fellas still got more to show, hey,
and don't nobody else won't step up? Like, look, we
got high flyers not getting in the contest. Where are
the shading Sharks? Where are the John Morans? Where are
the Zion Williamson's, Like come on, dog, Like these boys
got stupid crazy bunnies, Like I'm gonna give the Thompson
Twins a pause because they got stupid athleticism. But like
(32:30):
you said, it's a difference between dunk contests af leticism
and I just dunk on your head in the game.
You know what I'm saying. Whenever I want to, so
I get that, But like, come on, man, we got
more guys that got it, and I'm excited to see
these guys, though, I feel like Stephan Cassell gonna have
some stuff for us. Zela's clearly got some bounce. He
been in the dunk contest throughout high school and coming
(32:51):
up and DN seeing the highlights of Andre Jackson. Look
look like I'm gonna be excited to see what he do.
But you still just seeing some of these ain't like like,
like I understand too with John maybe because he been
banged up a little bit this year, but like, we
gotta get a job Morant participation one year, and the
further you go, the less likely it is, you know
(33:12):
what I'm saying, the older he gets, so it's like I.
Speaker 2 (33:13):
Don't think we're gonna see that from job Man.
Speaker 1 (33:15):
Yeah, that's why. That's what I'm saying. Is and then Zion,
you know what I'm saying, Like, that's disappointed to know
that those ain't that ain't gonna happen. If we did,
it should have been at least one should have been
at least one dunk contest where you got to see
John Moran and Zion together. Yeah, like I'm.
Speaker 2 (33:32):
Gonna get together and be like, bro, we're gonna get
in it.
Speaker 1 (33:35):
That'd have been crazy, bro. But that's the they got
the full contestants. I'm gonna be excited to see this.
I hope these boys put on the show. I think.
Speaker 3 (33:43):
Let me ask you this, is it true that that
Caitlin Clark turned down the NBA's.
Speaker 1 (33:50):
Oh yes, yes, the invite three point deal like Sabrina
and in that school last year?
Speaker 3 (33:55):
See I think, oh man, that would have been lit
like like that's that's the highlight of the other weekend
right there.
Speaker 1 (34:03):
Kayler get in it. She got up reasons, Bro, probably tired.
She been doing a lot, you know what I'm saying.
They went straight from the collar season straight into the
w and like you know, her, the man was up.
She probably just trying to sit down and chill a
little bit and probably try and get right, get back
in the gym, and like trying to come with an
encore because you know what shes gonna be expected to do.
(34:24):
So I feel it a young fella though, Bro, he
back in the G League. Isaiah Thomas dropped the forty
ball in his G League return? What do you think
of that? Man? So I'm so hyped with him though,
I yeah, man, I just know what he gonna do.
I just liked it. Regardless of what anybody think. He
doing it the way he want to do it. Man, Like,
(34:44):
no matter what, he ain't you know what I'm saying,
people be having pride about, Oh, I'm not going to
the G League. I'm know this beneath Like, my dude
ain't got no ego or none of that about nothing.
He's want to hoop, you know what I'm saying. And
he like going out there and having fun hooping. If
you get I hope you get picked up, you get
picked up, he does, he doesn't whatever, But I just
liked that he doing what he want to do. My
man want a hoop, and he going out there and
(35:06):
he doing what he loved to do. He having fun.
Clearly he's still a bucket. First game out faulty, you
know what I'm saying, faulty plus So like, clearly he
still can do that. So I hope, you know, he
gets a call up or whatever. Even if he don't,
I still just like that he doing it his way.
He not just accepting, you know, people saying that you
can't come to the NBA. So he not just shutting
it down, because that's what a lot of us did.
(35:27):
You don't want to you ain't trying to go to
the G League and you don't want to do this
and that. And my man ain't got no no pride,
no ego about it. He going to hoop and he hooping. Yeah,
got some big we had some big w NBA transactions.
Black you know he had. This was a This was
a big This was like the first like multi team
trade in the in the w history. And it was some.
(35:50):
It was some hitters up on there that gy like
you you know what I'm saying. Then you had Kelsey,
Kelsey Plumb. She she ended up with the Sparks girl
of Lissa Thomas. Can you believe she left and she
gone to the Marcy she left her baby man. Then
I believe, I can't believe Britney signed BG signed with
(36:11):
Atlanta like then with then with Phoenix for Evan and
she leaves. So like what you think of those them
was like the three kind of like whoa moves that happened,
like you know what I'm saying, just by the by
the scope of like you said, at least Alyssa Thomas
leaving the son and you know her her significant other,
BG leaving where she been the whole career and basically
(36:35):
Kelsey too.
Speaker 3 (36:37):
Yeah, start off with Alyssa. You know, that was very
surprising for her to leave. And what's crazy is she's
going to her significant others other team that she played
for before she came to the Son That's even crazy.
But I'm excited for the Phoenix Mercury, man, like the
Phinnish Mercury getting right. Hey, Yeah, they look like they
(37:01):
building some stuff, mister time as Copper, you know what
I'm saying, all them, I think they building some stuff.
Speaker 1 (37:06):
Over there.
Speaker 3 (37:09):
For the Aces to lose, plumb. But add Jewel, Lord,
you know, Juel is one of my favorites out there
that I think they still is one of the favorites man,
adding Jewel, I'm excited for Kelsey.
Speaker 1 (37:24):
You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 3 (37:25):
She's a veteran now can take a leadership role over
there with the Sparks. You got Rica, you know what
I'm saying, You got Cameron. I think I think that's
a good a good spot for her BG going to Atlanta,
Like I always felt like Atlanta got one of them
teams that got so much talent, but they just don't
(37:46):
know how to just get over the hump. Hopefully beg
come over there with the veteran leadership will help them
get over the hump. She's definitely gonna make them tougher,
because any team beg's on, they're a tough team. So
I'm excited for them. I think it's gonna be good.
Shout out to our little sister Hayley. You know what
I'm saying. They getting a nice little vet to put
(38:07):
them in position to make a playoff run.
Speaker 2 (38:10):
But man, shout out to WNB A man, it was.
Speaker 3 (38:13):

They got a whole They're gonna have a whole one
on one. Can't get the Queen of the court type
situation where it's gonna be a whole like a like
a I forget how many players. It's a lot of players.
It's gonna be in it, Dore, It's gonna basically it's
like basically everybody you need to play for one on

it's just gonna be like a winner take all type thing.
I think I can't wait to see it. What you
think about that? I think that's dope. I ain't hear
about that.
Speaker 3 (39:32):
I think that's dope. That's that's super dope. Man Like,
shout out to them, man, like, so proud of them women. Man,
they own the league and so forth on. Man like
us men can just you know, look at them and
and follow their league. Man, we need to come together
and just create something big and something bad.
Speaker 1 (39:52):
Like how they did this they own straight up. So
all right, we're gonna get to these Twitter questions right now, like, uh,
what you got put him on the board, Yes, roddub TV.
Who is mid year All n B A first team? Okay,
All n B A first team? Definitely shy, no brainers,
(40:17):
the starting to finish right there, I would have jo.
Speaker 3 (40:21):
If I would have to say, Shaye, Jason Tatum, Joannis Joker,
and one more.
Speaker 4 (40:34):
Mm hmm.
Speaker 1 (40:37):
That one more, I don't.
Speaker 3 (40:39):
I don't know who I will put in that one more,
but them definitely my four that that's going in there.
Speaker 2 (40:43):
I don't know who. I gotta think about it.
Speaker 1 (40:45):
Go ahead, Q. I like, I like that exact four,
but I would put I would I would add I
would add Jalen Brunson to that, mm hmm him or
(41:07):
as matter of fact, I know I wouldn't. I would
add Donovan Mitchell to that. Right now, that's the perfect one.
So yeah, I agree with that. I agree with that.
Speaker 3 (41:15):
Donovan, Donovan, Shay Tatum, Janni's Joker.
Speaker 1 (41:20):
It's my first team. Yeah, I'm with that right there.
Next caller, walk not Wilt Chamberlain. How do you stop Wemby.
You can't stop Wimby. You just got a whole Wemby
have a bad night, man. That man looking down into
the rim. He's shooting threes off one leg. He's shooting
(41:42):
from Curry range. He beat. He hit more threes like
faster than Curry did in the same amount of time. Like,
you can't stop this, dude. Man, he throwing the ball
off the backboard to himself, going to Dunky. He doing
your rods, A man doing sham guys in the game, Like,
come on, man, you can't Like I'm with, I'm with
what Tony Parker said in a couple of years, he
(42:04):
gonna be the best player in the league. Ain't gonna
be nothing that nobody could do about it. Period. Yeah,
I agree, Joe Montard. If you had to pick one,
which shot in the NBA Finals was the biggest Ray
Allen shot over the Spurs or Kyrie shot over Steph.
What's crazy that both shots played a big part of
Lebron's legacy.
Speaker 3 (42:25):
I'm going with Kyrie. I'm that Kyrie shot for me
was the one like that was for a game that
was Game seven, Like the one that Ray got that
to push it to Game seven. So I go with
the Kyrie shot.
Speaker 1 (42:44):
I gotta go with the Kyrie shot because it got
it got him the Cleveland championship, and I feel like
that was something that Cleveland had never experienced and it
was a bigger championship. Now. Level with difficulty, Ray Allen
all day no disrespect like Kyrie, and because both of them,
this is what both of them do. But what Kyrie
(43:06):
is doing is way easier than what Ray actually did.
Ray ran full speed to the corner and turned and
got his feet set perfect, got a perfect jump off,
and netted that thing and still did this little celebration
like all that's muscle member. Like you remember we was
asking about it. He was like, bro, I've done it.
That's why I say the level of difficulty makes it
(43:27):
the hardest shot. But both of them is something that's
in their wheelhouse that they do all the time, so
it's not like for either of them. I don't think
it was like the hardest thing in the world. But
I think Ray Allen shot was just harder just because
of what was going on, how he had to turn
and twist and get get situated perfect. That's a good
question though, I like it, d M Master. If they
(43:48):
ever have a three point contest for the Ogs, I
would win it. Know that not what I participated. I
would win it. This thing's still work Black, no, Black,
No like riding a bike, don't all. I gotta do it.
Get it, get it, get a little warmed up, get
these shoulders and arms loos, and this thing is gonna
be fire. Trust me not fire. We say five in Chicago.
(44:10):
You're that's caller, oh Raymond Lyons got a little lions
D in sports. He gotta start bench trade for you.
Black Coaches edition, Steve Kerr, Don Nelson, Mike Dan, Tony.
You ain't play for none of them. So what's your opinion? Black?
Speaker 3 (44:29):
I will start don because that's my guy, love don Nelson.
Speaker 2 (44:36):
I will bench d'An Tony and I trade Steve Kerr.
Speaker 1 (44:43):
Okay, okay, I'm starting. I'm starting d'An tony benching Donnie Nelson,
and I'm trading Steve Kerr. Next caller, DM Master, Q
and D. Who is somebody that you played with that
you think could have been an All Star our MVP
caliber player if they added and improved just one skill
(45:04):
to their game. Lamar odom and It wasn't even about
a skill. He just didn't He was too unselfish. L
was too unselfish. He was super passed first, and he
wanted to He wanted everybody to be involved in, everybody
to get the ball and be happy. Elo could have
been a damn killer though, Uh, just.
Speaker 3 (45:24):
To not choose locause L definitely is somebody I would choose.
I would have to say Rashid Wallace if he cared
about really scoring and really going to work and all
that stuff instead of playing the right way all the time.
I think, you know he's he's a person that has
(45:45):
the possibility of being an MVP of All Star Game.
He can shoot, get bucket, he dunk shed is a sleeper.
But you know he don't get the credit for playing
the right way all the time and being unselfish as
a superstar.
Speaker 1 (46:00):
Okay, I dig it, next caller or do it? There're
no more callers. Okay, we got we got Jay to
the moon. He wants to know should there be a
four point line? No, I don't agree with that. I don't.
I don't like the way they didn't change the three
point contest with all the green shots in the long
(46:22):
distance ball. But I don't think there should be a
four point line.
Speaker 2 (46:25):
What do you think, black, I wouldn't mind seeing a
four point line?
Speaker 1 (46:30):
Man, in this day and age.
Speaker 2 (46:31):
Man, these guys are shooting from logo.
Speaker 1 (46:33):
So man, this saint rocking sock. I know you want
to be in the rocket. Stop.
Speaker 2 (46:37):
Let me finish, Let me finish talking.
Speaker 3 (46:39):
These guys shoot from logos, So why not if they're
gonna shoot there for why not put a line out
there where it's count as a four point If they're shooting, man,
Dame Lillard Man and Steph kurrt Man, they shooting from
the logo, you might as well make it a four.
Speaker 1 (46:56):
So now what we're gonna do is introduce a stupid
as blong shot that we don't want the kids taking,
and then gonna be mad at them for taking it.
Speaker 2 (47:05):
Hey, we already doing that now with the kids.
Speaker 1 (47:08):
But it's the time out, time out at every little kid.
I don't care who you are. You and I both
when we started playing basketball, we ran out to that
three point lin, I don't want to shoot it from
the three point You're gonna have kids trying to launch
and shoot from a four point line. That got no
business doing it. The people that's doing it now. Steph
came on our show said, Hey, this is my PSA.
(47:28):
I ain't giving y'all the right to do this. You
know how much work I put in they have to
do to be able to do this. So what I'm
saying is like, if we put that four point line,
we are, without a doubt, encouraging people to shoot it.
Why did you put it there?
Speaker 2 (47:41):
I understand that they're doing it now.
Speaker 3 (47:43):
I just went to a middle school game day four yesterday,
and none of them really had the form or anything
to shoot a three, let alone a deep three. And
these they shooting from damn their half court. I'm like, whoa,
that's the COLORFULK Like, that's that's just crazy to me.
(48:03):
So they doing it anyway, so you might as well
benefit off of.
Speaker 1 (48:08):
I don't agree. I don't want no four point line.
I don't I don't think that'll be no good right there,
he says he does. That's his stance.
Speaker 2 (48:17):
I said, I wouldn't mind this.
Speaker 1 (48:20):
This is a podcast podcast. He said, I never hear
y'all talk about these guys. So what was you guys
relationship with players like all of them Cherokee. First of all,
we talked the chief all the time Cherokee parts. We
literally be texting, calling and talking to him. But Tyrone,
Nasby D Strong, Obeenie Keysy, Tremaine Folks or Harold Jamo,
(48:40):
all of them was our guys. We don't talk to
everybody all the time like that. But it's all love
with every last one of them you just named up there.
None of that that's not super cool.
Speaker 3 (48:51):
I think the last person I've seen was cherokeeper Man.
I would love to run into Man D Strong. And
I think we seen Tremaine folks.
Speaker 1 (49:00):
Trade folks on his referee and thing.
Speaker 2 (49:01):
I still we say to say trade folk.
Speaker 3 (49:04):
But man, my boy, Harold James, James jamoj we got
some stories to talk about.
Speaker 2 (49:14):
But yeah, I love to see them guys again.
Speaker 1 (49:16):
Manbina Obina got a son just about to be. Y'all
gonna hear about him. Obeni Keezy, he got a son
is about to be one of the top high school
dudes coming through. That was our guys. Man.
Speaker 3 (49:28):
You know, never really been a bad teammate, So I

D Anthony Davis finished with forty two points and twenty
three rebounds. It was his fifth forty twenty game since
the ABA NBA merger. Only only Moses Malone has more
(50:00):
forty twenty games with seven. You think he gonna get

Bro Yeah, I think he gonna get another one. Man

You know, he homegrown. Man, I hate the position he's in.
You know what I'm saying. He's supposed to have a
lot more accolades under his belt. I know it's not
a big thing about individual things. You know, you got
(50:35):
the All Stars, you got the Championship. But man, I
want to see a D with an MVP. I want
to see a D with a Defensive Player of the Year.

more stuff added to his top seventy five career.

For them to be a team that was at the
bottom of the borough, you know, e May coming over there.
Within two years, he turned their organization around. To see them, guys,
they're not just in the eighth or seventh seed or
a ten seed. Them guys is number two in the
Western Conference, which everybody says the hardest conference. Just the
(51:23):
team overall, everybody who's playing on the team, everybody who's
contributing to the team, that city, everything. I'm just proud
of them guys and the way they play the game
and how they play to get a win in Boston.
I don't know what the stat is, but you know, Houston,
they ain't been good these last couple of years, so
(51:43):
I don't know when the last time they won in Boston.
Speaker 1 (51:45):
I mean just from the standpoint, and you know how
big that was from May You know what big that
was going back in there and getting a win like
that with with everything exactly do to be talked about,
but we know that was that was a big win
for him personally, and yeah, real good, good ship team.
Speaker 3 (52:03):
For you to get a big win in Boston. Them
are the defending champs, young team. They holding it down.
You know, everybody waiting on them to fall off or
so for a phone. But from when I'm looking at
they don't look like it's gonna they're gonna fall off.
So shout out to him. They might shot out of
the week. I think they're doing a great job and
continue the good work.
Speaker 1 (52:25):

of the week is uh, to the to the to
the brody Man, Russ Westbrook bro Like you know what
I'm saying. I want to give a shout out and
a show of appreciation for him staying down, you know
what I'm saying. Like he didn't. He didn't had a
couple of tough years, had to he had the weather
as far as like hooping and having fun and everything.
(52:46):
And for me, it's like it's good to see Russ
out there smiling. The one thing we know he always
put like a bat out of hell. He only got
one switch, so he never not playing hard. But it's
just good to see him playing hard with that joy again.
And it's not like that that that rage or that
anger because I've got some I'm pissed off about a
couple of things going on, and it's just good to see,
(53:07):
you know what I'm saying, Denver as a team and
an organization and and everybody around there embracing him. And
we all know how I feel when you embraced and
when you feel love where you at and you go
out there and do what you do and you could
do it at your best. And to see him a
joker putting up triple doubles and him being impactful for
the team and still showing people that I'm still me.
I ain't never not been to brody, but yeah, I
(53:29):
just I'm just glad that like to see him getting
this getting this run right here, and I'm I'm you
know what I'm saying, I'm appreciative of it, because you
know how it is black. When this stuff started getting
like this, people could tell off and kind of give
you a reason to poke at him. And he ain't
never did that. That boy always in shape, always playing,
always available, always playing hard as hell, regardless of what
the outcome is. He played his ass off and you
(53:51):
gotta appreciate that in the league where everybody don't all
the time.
Speaker 2 (53:54):
So yeah, I definitely, I definitely respect it. Man.
Speaker 3 (53:57):
It's these last couple of years many I always find
a way to just speak bad on Brodie's name when
you know everybody in the league love him. The generation
that's coming up love him. And this year we ain't
heard none of that. We ain't heard nothing but positive energy.
Speaker 2 (54:13):
Man.
Speaker 3 (54:13):
You can tell how what kind of mind Joker got
because Joker wanted the guy like that on the team.
And just look how it just manifest out. Man, for
you to have two guys to get a triple double
in the same game multiple times too, multiple times.
Speaker 1 (54:27):
It's crazy. Man. So you know, we big Westbrook Frians.

Speaker 3 (00:54):
Thompson twin Man big game against the Cells, Tan three
nine and four with a game winner. After the game,
he said he felt like COVID that's.
Speaker 1 (01:04):
What you know what I'm saying, your flow the euro man.
Speaker 3 (01:10):
But big fan of his, big fan of his brothers too.
But shout out to the Rockets man. He's been a
key piece to them on the defensive end. On the
offensive end. Big night, big night for him. I'm looking
for a great future out of this kid.
Speaker 4 (01:25):
Man.
Speaker 2 (01:25):
You know, I'm a great player man on both sides
of the ball.
Speaker 1 (01:29):
Like you said, them boys different and he you know,
he definitely been having his way in the major way
with them Rockets doing everything they doing, stupid athletic, crazy
on both like you say, both ends of the floor,
crazy rebound. You know, I liked them boys offensive rebound
and just rebound in general, but they've been on that
offensive glass. Boy, watch your head, you know me. I
had to go with SG a career high fifty four
(01:52):
against Utah, and I feel like everything he doing, he
just just gone ahead, just just continue to stamp that
seal of approval that he about to be the MVP.
I chose him to be that last year. He didn't
get it this year. I feel like with the team
doing as well as they doing, having the winning streaks
and you know, being the number one in the West
like they are, as long as they continue to do
(02:14):
this and it's clear, it's clear that he gonna continue
to do what he doing, Nobody in the NBA can't
really stop him. Bro. The man had thirty points over
sixty some times last year he is showing that he
said it. Nobody can stop him getting to the paint
and like to me, it's like nobody can stop him
from getting puck buckets when he really just put his
mind to it. So you know, he averaging thirty two
(02:36):
on the on the season, five rebounds, six assists on
fifty two from the field and thirty five from the three.
Bro come on, dog, come on, doll Man is out
there going through his thing, going through his thing. We're
gonna move on. You want to say something, boy Sjao before.
Speaker 2 (02:51):
Before man that boy you know what I'm.
Speaker 1 (02:54):
Yeah, he is, he is definitely him right now. All right,
we get to the game last night, man, last night
at the Lakers go out East. They lost to the
Sixers one eighteen to one oh four Brian thirty one
and nine, Ruey thirteen and two, Austin Reeves thirteen and eight.
(03:15):
What you think of the game? Man, Big Maxie came
out with no no Big Joe Ellen b he should
be coming back soon. But Maxi sody no PG. Yeah
in no PG. My bet no PG either. But MAXI
said I got it fellas forty wader forty three of them.
Speaker 3 (03:30):
Things these are like this, This is my thing with
the Lakers. These are the games that's must wins, you
know what I'm saying. In the position they in, these
are must wins. Like Lebron is forty. Now, come on,
his birthday was in December.
Speaker 2 (03:47):
He's forty. He got thirty one and nine.
Speaker 3 (03:51):
Yeah, you don't even see a d name on on
the scorings list.
Speaker 1 (03:56):
And he just had forty and twenty the other day.
Speaker 2 (03:58):
Yeah, like like this, this is the inconsistency.
Speaker 3 (04:01):
Man, When you got an Ad and Lebron, you got
to build something around if you want to win anything.
Maybe they organization don't want to win or compete for
a championship. They just selling out game after game because
they gonna sell out every game. Everybody's gonna come least
the Lebron and the Lakers play. But man, these are
the games, especially man, no mb no, Paul Jeorde, MAXI
(04:24):
go off for forty three, ohbreak, you know what I'm saying,
he twenty and eight. Man, they just played a good
game and it wasn't a close game. They was getting
their ass.
Speaker 1 (04:34):
Kick day Joe Montar has been balling.
Speaker 3 (04:39):
I like Kelly, Yeah, they was getting their ass kicked,
but shout out to the seventy six if going to
handle the business. I know they trying to get healthy,
hopefully get healthy in their second half to make a
push for the playoffs. But the more disappoint side, it
was just the Lakers. This is a game that you
gotta win.
Speaker 1 (04:56):
Hey man, shout out Yabu Slee too man. Like we
said last time, it's coming over from France and getting
that second shot at the league. That boy ain't disappointing.
He killing out there any time. Yeah, A d with
the too small after hand, two hands for safety too
dump telling him, I say, look, man, you big fella
ain't out here playing around. He making the most of
this opportunity, like drumming down and be down. He's like,
(05:18):
oh okay, it's my turn. Let me get busy. I'm
shut out to him.
Speaker 2 (05:23):
I like him.
Speaker 1 (05:24):
Houston beat Atlanta last night, Rockets eight and two in
the last ten and won four in a row. Shane
Goon LP Shang change Gun had eighteen and ten, You
had Jalen Green with you know, he explodes with twenty
five and seven and eight A men Thompson eleven and
five and then the bogus thing about that. You hear
(05:45):
about the Atlanta man, My boy Jalen Johnson, who's been
killing He done for the year, gotta have social shoulder surgery,
bro done for this year, done out and he was
borderline is he gonna be or any is he gonna
be a starting out?
Speaker 3 (06:00):
We didn't like career year. He's having a great year.
But man, shout out to them Rockets. Man, everybody is
waiting on them to fall and take that big time
hit they've been handling in business. They played hard against
the good teams and the bad teams. It's all go now.
(06:21):
They beating good teams, they beating bad teams. They taking
care of business. They well deserved supposed to be in
the top three and that's what they've been in all year.
Speaker 2 (06:30):
Shout out to e May. He got these guys focused.
Speaker 3 (06:34):
Like every game I see them play, man, I love
watching them play.
Speaker 1 (06:38):
Like man, shout out to Shout out to Dylan Brooks
the other day, Man, I feel like people be forgetting
when when you get to the league, you got to
play a role. Man. That boy was Player of the
Year in the Pac twelve with a pack ten whatever
it is out there. When he was in Oregon, man
had thirty six the other day off ten threes, bro
ten to fourteen from three thirty six buckets. And I
(07:00):
know his role ain't to go out there and get buckets,
but you know what I'm saying, shout out to him.
Just you know, sometime you gotta pop out and remind
him I can get a bucket too. I see you,
I see you, young Dylan Brooks. That that was impressive.
Ten trade balls. That was impressive. I know this league
they shoot a lot, so it's a little easier, but
still ten is ten, my boy? You feel man?
Speaker 3 (07:18):
Like I said, shout out to them Rockets. Man, they
got a lot of talent on the bench, guys who
come in and play. Bari Smith, I guy went more.
Just different guys, man. He may got the whole team,
the organization looking totally different.
Speaker 4 (07:35):
Man.
Speaker 3 (07:36):
I'm so proud of that team. If I'm proud of
any team this year, it's them Houston Rockets.
Speaker 1 (07:41):
All right, Moving on a long Listen, this was you
had to stay up late last night. I was in
this thing. I was, I was, I might didn't make
it last night when this was going on Blake and
Gay it started to get real late and I made
it to the end. But you know it was tough.
But I can't last say I didn't fall asleep a
time until you know me, I'll do it. But Trailblazers
knocked off the bucks last night one twenty five to
(08:04):
one twelve, and Dames returned back up to the Pacific northwest.
Jannis went crazy, crazy, nerf rimming that thing, nerf rimming
that thing. Bro Dame had twenty and six. For a
minute that I thought Dame was about to turn back
into Dame town. He had like a little quick start,
a little bit Big Lopez eleven and three, Denny Avia
(08:28):
Bro Denny Yavia was hooping thirty and nine of them.
Anthony Simons, we already know he a bucket twenty five
and seven. And Big Aiden, when Big Aiden go go
and get you twenty twenty one and fourteen, that's what
you need out the big fella. That's the big fellaw
that everybody want to see every time when he out
there hooping and being dominant, going in the post, and
I don't even mind when he hitting the little MIDI
(08:49):
jump or even a three or two. When you down
in the paint doing what you supposed to do. So
you know, what I'm saying, shout out to him on
twenty and ten plus game.
Speaker 2 (08:57):
Yeah, I thought it was a good game.
Speaker 3 (09:00):
Something just gave me the feeling that Portland's gonna win
this game.
Speaker 2 (09:03):
When the game kind.
Speaker 3 (09:03):
Of started off, it just just gave me a feeling
how Portland was just just into it.
Speaker 4 (09:09):
Uh.
Speaker 3 (09:09):
These one of them games, like teams like the bucks Man,
you just can't afford to just let go, you know
what I'm saying. These are the games that you get
really going and get get right. But we gotta bucks
gotta figure it out. They gotta get it all the
way right. We're seeing their starting lineup Middleton, they waiting
on him to come back. But yeah, these are the
(09:31):
games that they just gotta figure out. Because I got
I got big hope in the bucks Man. I think
the bucks is gonna surprise a lot of people come
playoff time. And you know, you just got to get
it right. You can't lose games like this to Portland.
Speaker 1 (09:45):
Yeah, you this is definitely a game that you would assume,
especially when you look at the two teams and who
they are and who they've been this season that Milwaukee with.
You know, this is a game you look at the
you know the schedule and say that's a that's a
gettable game we should pretty much get. And when you
lose those type of games, like you said, they count
up at the end and then you'd be looking at
the scenario that you wouldn't be in if you didn't
lose these type of games. So moving on, I know
(10:08):
you like this type of tar. This is the Rubs
hands like bird Man's area where we talk about the
trade deadline is fastly approaching. Bro it's the twenty ninth.
The dead line is the sixth, and now we have
a Fox who has entered the chat man. I have
no clue why. I have no Well, unless it was
from his part, where he's from his part, I can
(10:30):
understand that he's looking like it's crazy. It's crazy going on,
and then the things they doing so okay. If he
asking Foul, I can understand. I couldn't understand for the
world while the Kings would want to do it. But
if he's asked Fou, I understand it. Apparently he want
to go to the Spurs and he he he trying
to make his next move, his best move, gonna get
with that big a, not that black what we said
(10:51):
you got any sense in the world, any moving parts
better be trying to migrate down town Santa Table.
Speaker 3 (10:57):
Man, I want to too, you know what I'm saying,
down there with that alien man, get down there with
big Wemby.
Speaker 1 (11:03):
How you think that'll look cp him? The Castle kid like?
Cause Castle, listen, Castle about to be one of them
sooner or later, sooner than later. And then you got
the other pieces they got with Visell, with Kelden Johnson,
with the soa Shane kid like. What you think about that?
Speaker 3 (11:21):
I think that'll be a great move if the Spurs
can get him, I think it'll be great. I think
it'll be real good for Cep to move to the
second string. He can really control the pace. You know
what I'm saying, Why stuff don't go down? Having dearon
Fox starting then bringing CPN. I think that'll be I
think that'll be a great move. So I hope, I
(11:43):
hope that happened. Man, that'll be a good two man
punch right there.
Speaker 1 (11:46):
BD wants to know. Do we think Houston would move
a first pound, a first round pick, Fred van Vliet
and Reed Shephard for Fox. Ooh, that's a lot.
Speaker 2 (11:58):
I would.
Speaker 1 (12:00):
I mean they got a lot of young people though,
So I mean, I mean, you know that not know
what that Fred van.
Speaker 3 (12:07):
Fleet he hometown, so you know, I'm always rooting for Fred.
But hey, darn Fox with Jason Green with the defense.
Speaker 1 (12:18):
Getting real over there, crazy fast stuff going on. It
that that that that's a scenario that could. I mean,
when you're a young team like that, you got assets,
you know what I'm saying. You never know. And then
dearon Fox like he and his prime bro averaging over
twenty six points for like the last two three years
or something like he's in his prime and I feel him.
He feel he probably feels like you have more All
(12:39):
Stars under his belt. And that's because the Kings aren't winning,
and you know he way up up north and don't
nobody really get to see you gotta stay up late,
like we're talking about with that game last night. So
he's like, when you look at this league, you know,
the fast paced, the flashy everything, he brings all of that,
you just don't get to see it a whole whole lot.
So I feel, uh, Jimmy Butler, they say they say
(13:05):
Jimmy turned around, walk out of practice dollar when he
found out even.
Speaker 3 (13:10):
Yeah, I think they should if that's the way they feel,
they should just send them home until he gets traded,
like just.
Speaker 1 (13:17):
Going, well, that's the new scenario. Now he's been suspended indefinitely,
and you know the deadline ain't but you know, eight
nine days away, seven eight days away.
Speaker 3 (13:26):
But like suspending him and all that stuff, you just
being extra man, just leave him alone.
Speaker 2 (13:32):
He's not going.
Speaker 3 (13:33):
He's not one of these typical players that you can
sit here and all that. He's a veteran that's been
in this league a long time. Like, let's just going
just stop all the bickering and the petty stuff and
let's just get them on out of there and move on.
Like I said, these teams and all that stuff, be
knowing in the summertime that this is not gonna work,
(13:54):
especially when guys don't sign extensions and stuff like that,
this is not gonna work.
Speaker 1 (13:59):
So you're, well, I think in this situation he was
he was seeking an extension and they didn't give it.
So either still didn't work.
Speaker 3 (14:07):
Even with that, Like even if you seeking one and
you ain't get it, you know that, Like like he
has a point and they has a point too. It's
a point on two sides. Man, he took these team
to two championships. This team is bigger than one player.
Is about the organization. So like, let's just stop all
(14:30):
the bickering and the petty shit and just gonna get
them up out of there and just let him go
home keep his check because eventually he gonna get that
money back.
Speaker 2 (14:37):
Anyway, Well you.
Speaker 1 (14:38):
Know how that go to the NBPA fil of grievance agent.
You're gonna get something back, you know. But what do
you think about this? Is? You know, it's rumors swirling
in the atmosphere that that that Philly could be looking
to do a swap for Jimmy, Jimmy Butler for Paul George.
What do you think of that?
Speaker 3 (14:57):
I love Paul George and I love Jimmy Butler, but
I don't think Miami is I don't think Paul George
is the type of player that should be in Miami.
Speaker 2 (15:12):
Like he's he's an.
Speaker 3 (15:14):
Injury prone player Miami, Like, if you injured, we gonna
see if you can do it. If you can't do it,
then you can't last. You ain't gonna you can't be here.
So I don't think he's the type of player I
think Paul George needs to be like in the organization
that can really watch him and and cater to his
injuries and stuff like that. Miami Heat is an organization
(15:38):
that turns you into Superman, gonna We're gonna get the
best you there possibly be.
Speaker 1 (15:43):
That's why I think he could benefit from there because
you know, like the how we prevent injuries black you
be in that weight room. I mean, some stuff you
can't prevent, but like you could do, you know what
I'm saying, Like, I feel like that's one of the
things that Miami do well. They training program and they
conditioning program is to keep you in the best shape
you can be in, so you could, you know, prevent injury. Now,
(16:03):
nothing can't completely prevent you from having injuries, obviously, but
I'm saying they put you in the best shape, you
know what I'm saying that you've been in as far
as your basketball body. And most players that play there,
as opposed to when they playing other places, they in
the best shape in Miami and whatever. You know what,
some guys just like that that they stay in shape,
but not everybody. And you know, Miami gonna bring the
(16:25):
best out of you. But we'll see. All this is
you know rumors. Who knows.
Speaker 3 (16:29):
I like it for seventy six ers, I don't. I
don't really care for it for Miami.
Speaker 1 (16:35):
What about you see Bradley Bell going anywhere? Zach Levine
going anywhere? Jordan Clarkson, Yeah, I like.
Speaker 3 (16:44):
If they make that fourteen trade or something. I like
seeing Bradley Bell in Milwaukee. You know what I'm saying.
Really don't care for him. Only good thing about Bradley
Bill going to the Bulls that I heard is Billy Donovan.
You know, he played with him, and I love Bradley
Beal going to the Miami Heat. You know, no disrespect
(17:05):
to Tyler Hero, but Bradley Bill is a better player
than Tyler Hero.
Speaker 1 (17:10):
To me, uh, Jack.
Speaker 3 (17:14):
Levine, I want Zach Levine to go somewhere. I don't
know if Detroit is the place though, Like I've been
hearing Detroit, I don't know if Detroit is the place
for a Zach Levine. To me, I think he can
do bigger better, you know, I think he'll do great
with the Lakers. I think he'll do great with some
(17:35):
other team outside Detroit. I don't think that's the player
for Detroit. Who else you say, Jordan Clarkson Jordan Clarkson,
like he's a wild card. I think he can do
great coming off the bench for a lot of team teams,
like a lot of I think I think that'll be
a big pick up. So wherever, like any contendent teams,
(17:58):
I think he'll be great. Like I can see him
with the next I can see him with different teams
that'll be great for him.
Speaker 1 (18:05):
So uh yeah, he's going, like you said, here a
wild card. Here. You can suit him up anywhere and
he gonna go hoop. And he had bucket anywhere. And
he played hard all the time, same way with the
intensity and all that.
Speaker 2 (18:16):
So ain't he tough? And he ready to square up
all the time.
Speaker 1 (18:19):
He gonna throw out instantly? He ain't He got so
many pictures? Where what's up? Hold up? Hold up? Holo?
We got some some Twitter activity to Rich and d
Miles for Shure, both role models from me, growing I
love you both, keep representing. I appreciate you, Jay, I
appreciate your respect. You feel old talking about growing up
the miles. Oh now me, you're let's let's let's let's
(18:41):
go to the to the Western Conference standards. Man, Let's
look at some standings because that made me feel old
right there. Look at here he is on OKC thunder
with all the draft picks and all young players. They
still sitting at number one. Black got them. We just
got talking about them. Rockets, them email Ler Rockets. Yeah,
(19:02):
mymph grids number three, thirty one and sixteen. I'm toped
three balling being at Denver Lakers at five, despite everything
being said, everything being talked about, they sit at five,
the Clippers at six, Timberwolves seven, Sons, Mavericks and Kings
still there fighting. Doug Christy then kept them in a fight.
(19:26):
What do you think it is? The Timberwolves then moved
up a little teen ninety bit.
Speaker 2 (19:31):
Yeah, that's why I was saying about the Lakers.
Speaker 3 (19:33):
Man, when you give games up like this, one game
that you that you should have won early in the
season can determine whether you be in fourth, fifth, or
all the way in nineteenth.
Speaker 2 (19:44):
You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 3 (19:45):
So these are the games that especially in this Western Conference,
these are the games. These are the up and down games.
It changed every week. It changed by the day of
you losing the game and winning the game. So the
teams that sposed to be beat you need to be
them team. Uh, you know, it ain't nothing changed. Like
I say, everything, I'm missing this man. I really want
(20:06):
to see Wemby in them playoffs. But I'm proud of
the Kings. You know, after firing their coach and kind
of getting back on track, they put themselves right back
in the contention to player. You know, they win a
couple more games, they can be in the fourth field spot.
So shout out to them Kings for getting back in
the in the race. The Mavericks has been going through something.
(20:27):
They got a lot of injuries, They've been losing a
lot of close games, and they steady slipping out the rankings.
Speaker 2 (20:34):
Hate to see it. They was one of my early
preseason picks.
Speaker 3 (20:38):
But yeah, shout out to them Sons getting back in it,
you know what I'm saying. Slowly climbing and maybe they
can get back in the race.
Speaker 1 (20:47):
Straight up, straight, Let's move to the east. Man move
to the east. From then, Cavaliers holding strong, keeping their
position at number one. Everybody thought it was a fluke.
They just had a high start, but they keeping pace.
They didn't you know, the play that dipped a little
with a little bit with Mobley out of the lineup,
and I think he should be back, but they still
(21:08):
holding down top spot. You already know the Celtics ain't
gonna be far off. They thirty two and fifteen, New
York Knicks thirty one and sixteen. The Bucks then got
to that top of that top four. They had four
pacers and got back up in there. Black. At five,
they had dropped down a little bit. They slid back
up the Heat at six, we know the Magic. They
slid down with all our injuries. But now they move
(21:30):
and they were like eight last week. I think they
moved up one spot to seven. Pistons eight. The Hawks
now losing Jalen Johnson, hate that for him. DeAndre Hunter
had a big game the other day though career high,
so maybe they helped him help them with him being
able to be back and hoping Bulls at ten. What
stands out to you here, Black.
Speaker 3 (21:49):
My concern really for the Eastern Conference is really the
Heat and the Magic. The Magic has a bunch of
injuries that they slowly slipping a little bit. It's a
tougher fire because they're not fully equipped with all their
weapons and just the heat. What they're going through with
Jimmy Butler that's just put that dark cloud.
Speaker 1 (22:08):
Over their heads.
Speaker 3 (22:09):
So they losing a few games that they probably wouldn't
have lost if he was there. Uh So, just seeing
them slowly just kind of trinkle down, and you know
you got teams like the Hawks to piss and the Bulls,
you know, home reader getting them spots that they in.
Speaker 1 (22:24):
Yeah. No, it's gonna be exciting down the stretch to
see who in the play in, who locked into the playoffs,
and who's sitting on the outside looking in. Let's get
to this all start voting, man, because it's all start
coming up fast, fast, fast. We're gonna be out there
in the back you're going through you know what I'm saying.
We coming out there to tell them when they got
huh yeah, yeah, you know, we're definitely gonna be out there.
You know where your dj D Knights at. You're gonna
(22:46):
be looking like that, don't you know that that boy
got the dj D Nice dj D Niles. Hey, can
we get the graphic thing there? It is? They is?
This is the Oh, these the final voting results. This
show you why who got what? Just don't tell us
who the subs gonna who the reserve is gonna be though,
what's stand out here to you? Black Hey? I tell
(23:08):
you what surprised me was that New York City stand up.
Remember last week, it looked like LaMelo was running away
with the starting point guard position litl Lowe Charlotte big time.
LaMelo was getting getting he was leading all Eastern Conference guards.
And I guess you gotta shout out Cleveland fans too, though.
You gotta shout out Cleveland too because they because because
(23:28):
next thing, you know, the last the last Telly is
Donovan Mitchell and Jalen Brunson are the starters with the
with the most votes, so you know you gotta you gotta.
Speaker 3 (23:39):
Gotta on the Eastern side, I definitely feel like Jalen
Brunson and and Donovan Mitchell, they overwalled makeup definitely should
have been the starters. Nothing against Melo because he's it's
it's average. Is it's better than Brushton and a third
with the with what Brunston doing plus the winning of
(24:01):
what the Knicks doing being in third, I definitely feel
like he deserved.
Speaker 2 (24:05):
I feel like it's a clean starting lineup.
Speaker 1 (24:07):
For the East.
Speaker 2 (24:07):
I feel like everybody that's that should have been their
starting lineup.
Speaker 1 (24:11):
You know, I mean, I mean, yeah, I agree everybody
that deserve it. I'm just saying. I still I wouldn't
have been mad at Lamello's you know how that goes.
This is the fan voting and all that. That's what
that's what really makes it.
Speaker 3 (24:22):
You know, it's a fan piece of it. But yeah,
you know what I'm saying. But I'm happy to see
it's two knicks in the starting lineup. We haven't seen
that in years, you know what I'm saying. Shout out
to Cat, shout out to Bronson. But I felt like
this was the perfect starting lineup. I think this was
posed to man now in the West. You know, I understand,
(24:46):
I understand, you know Steph, and I understand Lebron, I
understand kd Ah. But man, you got you got, you got,
you got John morn out there. You know, you know
what I'm saying. But you just said you understand Steph.
Speaker 1 (25:04):
You understand the them the only one of them three
where they had to come off the other two MVP candidates.
Speaker 3 (25:11):
Yeah, that's what I'm saying. That's why I said.
Speaker 1 (25:13):
I'm about to say, like hold on now, because as
g a joker, like they moveable objects with what they
doing right now.
Speaker 3 (25:22):
Yeah, you know, nothing against Steph, but I thought that
giant Steph fols have been the back court man John
them third. They went from not even making the playoffs
to they third led by John Morant. You know what
I'm saying, Uh, who else? I got a brain freeze
now I can't even think of who else? But I
respect it, man, you know what I'm saying. This is
(25:42):
the this is the turning of the tide. These guys
has been in the All Star Game and been starters
for since forever, since since Q were tired, you.
Speaker 1 (25:51):
Know, and they and they coming off doing what they
did in the Olympics. Yeah, they also still doing what
they're doing.
Speaker 3 (25:57):
Yeah, they've been all started since q o astratired. So
you know, I respect it. It's all good. I think
this is definitely a dope, dope starting lineup though.
Speaker 1 (26:08):
Yeah that's cool. We could uh let's move on to
the reserves. Is gonna get picked them ONK because I
don't like how you just try to throw all that
shade on me and my age and you know what
I'm saying, Like, I don't know what you're talking about,
but the uh, the reserves, like we could look at
the we could look at the East. The likely picks,
(26:31):
as they say, could possibly be Paolo. Polo came back
in enough time. I feel we got a screenshot of
the reserves, a graphic. I don't think we do. I
won't got a graphical reserve. Okay, Paolo Evan Mobley, there
you go. Some of the names are still up there.
(26:52):
But Paolo, Evan Mobley, Jalen Brown, Franz Wagner, LaMelo, Trey Young,
and then in the West wenby A d. Shane Goon,
Jalen Jaylen Williams from ok C, Luca and Edwards Kyrie,
John Moran. Who who who you taking? Who your East reserves?
(27:14):
What you take?
Speaker 4 (27:15):
Uh?
Speaker 3 (27:15):
My East reserves. I'm definitely taking Evan Mobley.
Speaker 4 (27:21):
Uh.
Speaker 2 (27:22):
I'm definitely taking Jalen Brown.
Speaker 1 (27:25):
Mm hmmm, uh I'm.
Speaker 2 (27:30):
Kind of uh I might.
Speaker 3 (27:33):
I'm definitely taking Lamello, them them them, my definitely uh my.
My toss ups is Polo Ka, Daris Garland.
Speaker 2 (27:49):
Who else I think BAM should make it?
Speaker 1 (27:55):
You know, out of East i'ma go I'm going Paolo Mobley,
Brown and then little Mellow Trey mm hmmm. Damn, yes,
(28:17):
that's my seven. I'm going I'm going dang in no
disrespect to whoever I left off, like Tyler Hero, Darius Garland,
Tyrese No. I love them guys, but I think Trey Young,
I think the Hawks deserve a one All Star, and
I thought it would have been between Trey and Jalen,
but I would say Lamello, Trey Young, Lillard, Kay Cunningham,
(28:42):
and then the other three is Paolo Mobley and JB. Yes,
that's why I'm going out west. I like that. That's
that's that's dope.
Speaker 3 (28:49):
Yeah, Dave, Lillard, Tray Young, I think that's that gives
Garland a short end of the stick.
Speaker 2 (28:55):
Uh, Jaylen Brown, k hell Evan Mobley.
Speaker 3 (29:04):
Like I said, to throw another big man in there,
that might shorten somebody up.
Speaker 1 (29:07):
It's probably gonna be banned for me. Then, So where
you going out West? Out West?
Speaker 4 (29:14):
Uh?
Speaker 3 (29:14):
Definitely John Morant Uh a Houston Rocket player gotta go.
And if I had to pick anybody, it's probably gonna
be Jalen.
Speaker 4 (29:24):
Green h A d mm hmmm Wemby Wemby, Uh got
one more.
Speaker 1 (29:40):
Hardened, Luca Kyrie, d Book Fox.
Speaker 3 (29:46):
I don't think Luca. I don't think Lucas should make
it this year. He missed a lot again, heard a
lot be heard a lot? Uh Man, you say already?
Speaker 2 (29:58):
And Elvis that's my say him and Elvison. So at
Jai wenby a d Jalen Green and who else? Kyrie James, Yeah,
(30:23):
I put a clip in James Harden.
Speaker 1 (30:27):
Okay, So my seven, I'm going Victor winbyama a d
Jalen Williams from ok C. And then I'm going and Edwards,
Ja Morant, James Harden and between Shane Goon and Kyrie,
(30:56):
I'm going to go. I'm gonna go Kyrie, but I
think they may take Shane Goon in the game.
Speaker 3 (31:05):
Actually a rocket, guys, ago second, that's what I'm saying,
A rocket gotta go.
Speaker 1 (31:10):
That's why, matter of fact, that's why I'm gonna take
Kyrie out. Im gonna go Shane Goon right there, just
because of that, Just because of that. And then let
me ask you this, what you think about the Dunk Contest? Though?
You got you got, you got four, you got four
guys announced. Now we got the returning champ two time
chap right here, Orlando Magic, you know I Ciola Magic
(31:32):
g Team Mac McClung. Then you got young stars Stephanie
Castle from the Spurs and my Taes Bazillis from the Bulls,
both rookies. Then you got Andre Jackson. And let me
say this, bro, I saw a the highlight real Andre Jackson.
I think it was from college or wherever it was from.
(31:54):
Boy was booming that thing. He got, He got some,
he got explosive hops.
Speaker 3 (31:59):
I think once you win the dunk contest twice, you
shouldn't be in it no more.
Speaker 1 (32:07):
Hey, man, listen to young fellas still got more to show, hey,
and don't nobody else won't step up? Like, look, we
got high flyers not getting in the contest. Where are
the shading Sharks? Where are the John Morans? Where are
the Zion Williamson's, Like come on, dog, Like these boys
got stupid crazy bunnies, Like I'm gonna give the Thompson
Twins a pause because they got stupid athleticism. But like
(32:30):
you said, it's a difference between dunk contests af leticism
and I just dunk on your head in the game.
You know what I'm saying. Whenever I want to, so
I get that, But like, come on, man, we got
more guys that got it, and I'm excited to see
these guys, though, I feel like Stephan Cassell gonna have
some stuff for us. Zela's clearly got some bounce. He
been in the dunk contest throughout high school and coming
(32:51):
up and DN seeing the highlights of Andre Jackson. Look
look like I'm gonna be excited to see what he do.
But you still just seeing some of these ain't like like,
like I understand too with John maybe because he been
banged up a little bit this year, but like, we
gotta get a job Morant participation one year, and the
further you go, the less likely it is, you know
(33:12):
what I'm saying, the older he gets, so it's like I.
Speaker 2 (33:13):
Don't think we're gonna see that from job Man.
Speaker 1 (33:15):
Yeah, that's why. That's what I'm saying. Is and then Zion,
you know what I'm saying, Like, that's disappointed to know
that those ain't that ain't gonna happen. If we did,
it should have been at least one should have been
at least one dunk contest where you got to see
John Moran and Zion together. Yeah, like I'm.
Speaker 2 (33:32):
Gonna get together and be like, bro, we're gonna get
in it.
Speaker 1 (33:35):
That'd have been crazy, bro. But that's the they got
the full contestants. I'm gonna be excited to see this.
I hope these boys put on the show. I think.
Speaker 3 (33:43):
Let me ask you this, is it true that that
Caitlin Clark turned down the NBA's.
Speaker 1 (33:50):
Oh yes, yes, the invite three point deal like Sabrina
and in that school last year?
Speaker 3 (33:55):
See I think, oh man, that would have been lit
like like that's that's the highlight of the other weekend
right there.
Speaker 1 (34:03):
Kayler get in it. She got up reasons, Bro, probably tired.
She been doing a lot, you know what I'm saying.
They went straight from the collar season straight into the
w and like you know, her, the man was up.
She probably just trying to sit down and chill a
little bit and probably try and get right, get back
in the gym, and like trying to come with an
encore because you know what shes gonna be expected to do.
(34:24):
So I feel it a young fella though, Bro, he
back in the G League. Isaiah Thomas dropped the forty
ball in his G League return? What do you think
of that? Man? So I'm so hyped with him though,
I yeah, man, I just know what he gonna do.
I just liked it. Regardless of what anybody think. He
doing it the way he want to do it. Man, Like,
(34:44):
no matter what, he ain't you know what I'm saying,
people be having pride about, Oh, I'm not going to
the G League. I'm know this beneath Like, my dude
ain't got no ego or none of that about nothing.
He's want to hoop, you know what I'm saying. And
he like going out there and having fun hooping. If
you get I hope you get picked up, you get
picked up, he does, he doesn't whatever, But I just
liked that he doing what he want to do. My
man want a hoop, and he going out there and
(35:06):
he doing what he loved to do. He having fun.
Clearly he's still a bucket. First game out faulty, you
know what I'm saying, faulty plus So like, clearly he
still can do that. So I hope, you know, he
gets a call up or whatever. Even if he don't,
I still just like that he doing it his way.
He not just accepting, you know, people saying that you
can't come to the NBA. So he not just shutting
it down, because that's what a lot of us did.
(35:27):
You don't want to you ain't trying to go to
the G League and you don't want to do this
and that. And my man ain't got no no pride,
no ego about it. He going to hoop and he hooping. Yeah,
got some big we had some big w NBA transactions.
Black you know he had. This was a This was
a big This was like the first like multi team
trade in the in the w history. And it was some.
(35:50):
It was some hitters up on there that gy like
you you know what I'm saying. Then you had Kelsey,
Kelsey Plumb. She she ended up with the Sparks girl
of Lissa Thomas. Can you believe she left and she
gone to the Marcy she left her baby man. Then
I believe, I can't believe Britney signed BG signed with
(36:11):
Atlanta like then with then with Phoenix for Evan and
she leaves. So like what you think of those them
was like the three kind of like whoa moves that happened,
like you know what I'm saying, just by the by
the scope of like you said, at least Alyssa Thomas
leaving the son and you know her her significant other,
BG leaving where she been the whole career and basically
(36:35):
Kelsey too.
Speaker 3 (36:37):
Yeah, start off with Alyssa. You know, that was very
surprising for her to leave. And what's crazy is she's
going to her significant others other team that she played
for before she came to the Son That's even crazy.
But I'm excited for the Phoenix Mercury, man, like the
Phinnish Mercury getting right. Hey, Yeah, they look like they
(37:01):
building some stuff, mister time as Copper, you know what
I'm saying, all them, I think they building some stuff.
Speaker 1 (37:06):
Over there.
Speaker 3 (37:09):
For the Aces to lose, plumb. But add Jewel, Lord,
you know, Juel is one of my favorites out there
that I think they still is one of the favorites man,
adding Jewel, I'm excited for Kelsey.
Speaker 1 (37:24):
You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 3 (37:25):
She's a veteran now can take a leadership role over
there with the Sparks. You got Rica, you know what
I'm saying, You got Cameron. I think I think that's
a good a good spot for her BG going to Atlanta,
Like I always felt like Atlanta got one of them
teams that got so much talent, but they just don't
(37:46):
know how to just get over the hump. Hopefully beg
come over there with the veteran leadership will help them
get over the hump. She's definitely gonna make them tougher,
because any team beg's on, they're a tough team. So
I'm excited for them. I think it's gonna be good.
Shout out to our little sister Hayley. You know what
I'm saying. They getting a nice little vet to put
(38:07):
them in position to make a playoff run.

Speaker 1 (39:52):
Like how they did this they own straight up. So
all right, we're gonna get to these Twitter questions right now, like, uh,
what you got put him on the board, Yes, roddub TV.
Who is mid year All n B A first team? Okay,
All n B A first team? Definitely shy, no brainers,
(40:17):
the starting to finish right there, I would have jo.
Speaker 3 (40:21):
If I would have to say, Shaye, Jason Tatum, Joannis Joker,
and one more.
Speaker 4 (40:34):
Mm hmm.
Speaker 1 (40:37):
That one more, I don't.
Speaker 3 (40:39):
I don't know who I will put in that one more,
but them definitely my four that that's going in there.
Speaker 2 (40:43):
I don't know who. I gotta think about it.
Speaker 1 (40:45):
Go ahead, Q. I like, I like that exact four,
but I would put I would I would add I
would add Jalen Brunson to that, mm hmm him or
(41:07):
as matter of fact, I know I wouldn't. I would
add Donovan Mitchell to that. Right now, that's the perfect one.
So yeah, I agree with that. I agree with that.
Speaker 3 (41:15):
Donovan, Donovan, Shay Tatum, Janni's Joker.
Speaker 1 (41:20):
It's my first team. Yeah, I'm with that right there.
Next caller, walk not Wilt Chamberlain. How do you stop Wemby.
You can't stop Wimby. You just got a whole Wemby
have a bad night, man. That man looking down into
the rim. He's shooting threes off one leg. He's shooting
(41:42):
from Curry range. He beat. He hit more threes like
faster than Curry did in the same amount of time. Like,
you can't stop this, dude. Man, he throwing the ball
off the backboard to himself, going to Dunky. He doing
your rods, A man doing sham guys in the game, Like,
come on, man, you can't Like I'm with, I'm with
what Tony Parker said in a couple of years, he
(42:04):
gonna be the best player in the league. Ain't gonna
be nothing that nobody could do about it. Period. Yeah,
I agree, Joe Montard. If you had to pick one,
which shot in the NBA Finals was the biggest Ray
Allen shot over the Spurs or Kyrie shot over Steph.
What's crazy that both shots played a big part of
Lebron's legacy.
Speaker 3 (42:25):
I'm going with Kyrie. I'm that Kyrie shot for me
was the one like that was for a game that
was Game seven, Like the one that Ray got that
to push it to Game seven. So I go with
the Kyrie shot.
Speaker 1 (42:44):
I gotta go with the Kyrie shot because it got
it got him the Cleveland championship, and I feel like
that was something that Cleveland had never experienced and it
was a bigger championship. Now. Level with difficulty, Ray Allen
all day no disrespect like Kyrie, and because both of them,
this is what both of them do. But what Kyrie
(43:06):
is doing is way easier than what Ray actually did.
Ray ran full speed to the corner and turned and
got his feet set perfect, got a perfect jump off,
and netted that thing and still did this little celebration
like all that's muscle member. Like you remember we was
asking about it. He was like, bro, I've done it.
That's why I say the level of difficulty makes it
(43:27):
the hardest shot. But both of them is something that's
in their wheelhouse that they do all the time, so
it's not like for either of them. I don't think
it was like the hardest thing in the world. But
I think Ray Allen shot was just harder just because
of what was going on, how he had to turn
and twist and get get situated perfect. That's a good
question though, I like it, d M Master. If they
(43:48):
ever have a three point contest for the Ogs, I
would win it. Know that not what I participated. I
would win it. This thing's still work Black, no, Black,
No like riding a bike, don't all. I gotta do it.
Get it, get it, get a little warmed up, get
these shoulders and arms loos, and this thing is gonna
be fire. Trust me not fire. We say five in Chicago.
(44:10):
You're that's caller, oh Raymond Lyons got a little lions
D in sports. He gotta start bench trade for you.
Black Coaches edition, Steve Kerr, Don Nelson, Mike Dan, Tony.
You ain't play for none of them. So what's your opinion? Black?
Speaker 3 (44:29):
I will start don because that's my guy, love don Nelson.
Speaker 2 (44:36):
I will bench d'An Tony and I trade Steve Kerr.
Speaker 1 (44:43):
Okay, okay, I'm starting. I'm starting d'An tony benching Donnie Nelson,
and I'm trading Steve Kerr. Next caller, DM Master, Q
and D. Who is somebody that you played with that
you think could have been an All Star our MVP
caliber player if they added and improved just one skill
(45:04):
to their game. Lamar odom and It wasn't even about
a skill. He just didn't He was too unselfish. L
was too unselfish. He was super passed first, and he
wanted to He wanted everybody to be involved in, everybody
to get the ball and be happy. Elo could have
been a damn killer though, Uh, just.
Speaker 3 (45:24):
To not choose locause L definitely is somebody I would choose.
I would have to say Rashid Wallace if he cared
about really scoring and really going to work and all
that stuff instead of playing the right way all the time.
I think, you know he's he's a person that has
(45:45):
the possibility of being an MVP of All Star Game.
He can shoot, get bucket, he dunk shed is a sleeper.
But you know he don't get the credit for playing
the right way all the time and being unselfish as
a superstar.
Speaker 1 (46:00):
Okay, I dig it, next caller or do it? There're
no more callers. Okay, we got we got Jay to
the moon. He wants to know should there be a
four point line? No, I don't agree with that. I don't.
I don't like the way they didn't change the three
point contest with all the green shots in the long
(46:22):
distance ball. But I don't think there should be a
four point line.
Speaker 2 (46:25):
What do you think, black, I wouldn't mind seeing a
four point line?
Speaker 1 (46:30):
Man, in this day and age.
Speaker 2 (46:31):
Man, these guys are shooting from logo.
Speaker 1 (46:33):
So man, this saint rocking sock. I know you want
to be in the rocket. Stop.
Speaker 2 (46:37):
Let me finish, Let me finish talking.
Speaker 3 (46:39):
These guys shoot from logos, So why not if they're
gonna shoot there for why not put a line out
there where it's count as a four point If they're shooting, man,
Dame Lillard Man and Steph kurrt Man, they shooting from
the logo, you might as well make it a four.
Speaker 1 (46:56):
So now what we're gonna do is introduce a stupid
as blong shot that we don't want the kids taking,
and then gonna be mad at them for taking it.
Speaker 2 (47:05):
Hey, we already doing that now with the kids.
Speaker 1 (47:08):
But it's the time out, time out at every little kid.
I don't care who you are. You and I both
when we started playing basketball, we ran out to that
three point lin, I don't want to shoot it from
the three point You're gonna have kids trying to launch
and shoot from a four point line. That got no
business doing it. The people that's doing it now. Steph
came on our show said, Hey, this is my PSA.
(47:28):
I ain't giving y'all the right to do this. You
know how much work I put in they have to
do to be able to do this. So what I'm
saying is like, if we put that four point line,
we are, without a doubt, encouraging people to shoot it.
Why did you put it there?
Speaker 2 (47:41):
I understand that they're doing it now.
Speaker 3 (47:43):
I just went to a middle school game day four yesterday,
and none of them really had the form or anything
to shoot a three, let alone a deep three. And
these they shooting from damn their half court. I'm like, whoa,
that's the COLORFULK Like, that's that's just crazy to me.
(48:03):
So they doing it anyway, so you might as well
benefit off of.
Speaker 1 (48:08):
I don't agree. I don't want no four point line.
I don't I don't think that'll be no good right there,
he says he does. That's his stance.
Speaker 2 (48:17):
I said, I wouldn't mind this.
Speaker 1 (48:20):
This is a podcast podcast. He said, I never hear
y'all talk about these guys. So what was you guys
relationship with players like all of them Cherokee. First of all,
we talked the chief all the time Cherokee parts. We
literally be texting, calling and talking to him. But Tyrone,
Nasby D Strong, Obeenie Keysy, Tremaine Folks or Harold Jamo,
(48:40):
all of them was our guys. We don't talk to
everybody all the time like that. But it's all love
with every last one of them you just named up there.
None of that that's not super cool.
Speaker 3 (48:51):
I think the last person I've seen was cherokeeper Man.
I would love to run into Man D Strong. And
I think we seen Tremaine folks.

out with everybody. Start of the day. Black, we got
the start of the day on Monday. Your boy, a
D Anthony Davis finished with forty two points and twenty
three rebounds. It was his fifth forty twenty game since

(50:00):
forty twenty games with seven. You think he gonna get

the first quarter.
Speaker 3 (50:13):
Bro Yeah, I think he gonna get another one. Man

You know, he homegrown. Man, I hate the position he's in.
You know what I'm saying. He's supposed to have a
lot more accolades under his belt. I know it's not
a big thing about individual things. You know, you got
(50:35):
the All Stars, you got the Championship. But man, I
want to see a D with an MVP. I want
to see a D with a Defensive Player of the Year.
You know, I want to see AD with a lot
more stuff added to his top seventy five career.

Speaker 3 (51:00):
For them to be a team that was at the
bottom of the borough, you know, e May coming over there.
Within two years, he turned their organization around. To see them, guys,
they're not just in the eighth or seventh seed or
a ten seed. Them guys is number two in the
Western Conference, which everybody says the hardest conference. Just the
(51:23):
team overall, everybody who's playing on the team, everybody who's
contributing to the team, that city, everything. I'm just proud
of them guys and the way they play the game
and how they play to get a win in Boston.
I don't know what the stat is, but you know, Houston,
they ain't been good these last couple of years, so
(51:43):
I don't know when the last time they won in Boston.
Speaker 1 (51:45):
I mean just from the standpoint, and you know how
big that was from May You know what big that
was going back in there and getting a win like
that with with everything exactly do to be talked about,
but we know that was that was a big win
for him personally, and yeah, real good, good ship team.
Speaker 3 (52:03):
For you to get a big win in Boston. Them
are the defending champs, young team. They holding it down.
You know, everybody waiting on them to fall off or
so for a phone. But from when I'm looking at
they don't look like it's gonna they're gonna fall off.
So shout out to him. They might shot out of
the week. I think they're doing a great job and
continue the good work.
Speaker 1 (52:25):
I did it, out did it. Hey, My shout out
of the week is uh, to the to the to
the brody Man, Russ Westbrook bro Like you know what
I'm saying. I want to give a shout out and
a show of appreciation for him staying down, you know
what I'm saying. Like he didn't. He didn't had a
couple of tough years, had to he had the weather
as far as like hooping and having fun and everything.
(52:46):
And for me, it's like it's good to see Russ
out there smiling. The one thing we know he always
put like a bat out of hell. He only got
one switch, so he never not playing hard. But it's
just good to see him playing hard with that joy again.
And it's not like that that that rage or that
anger because I've got some I'm pissed off about a
couple of things going on, and it's just good to see,
(53:07):
you know what I'm saying, Denver as a team and
an organization and and everybody around there embracing him. And
we all know how I feel when you embraced and
when you feel love where you at and you go
out there and do what you do and you could
do it at your best. And to see him a
joker putting up triple doubles and him being impactful for
the team and still showing people that I'm still me.
I ain't never not been to brody, but yeah, I
(53:29):
just I'm just glad that like to see him getting
this getting this run right here, and I'm I'm you
know what I'm saying, I'm appreciative of it, because you
know how it is black. When this stuff started getting
like this, people could tell off and kind of give
you a reason to poke at him. And he ain't
never did that. That boy always in shape, always playing,
always available, always playing hard as hell, regardless of what
the outcome is. He played his ass off and you
(53:51):
gotta appreciate that in the league where everybody don't all
the time.
Speaker 2 (53:54):
So yeah, I definitely, I definitely respect it. Man.
Speaker 3 (53:57):
It's these last couple of years many I always find
a way to just speak bad on Brodie's name when
you know everybody in the league love him. The generation
that's coming up love him. And this year we ain't
heard none of that. We ain't heard nothing but positive energy.
Speaker 2 (54:13):
Man.
Speaker 3 (54:13):
You can tell how what kind of mind Joker got
because Joker wanted the guy like that on the team.
And just look how it just manifest out. Man, for
you to have two guys to get a triple double
in the same game multiple times too, multiple times.
Speaker 1 (54:27):
It's crazy. Man. So you know, we big Westbrook Frians.
