Speaker 1 (00:03):
Welcome to a post-live reaction episode of,
From my Perspective as you know,I'm your boy Deion, and after
that amazing game one on theEastern Conference.
As you know, we had to comegive our live reaction.
Once again, I'm your boy, youknow, I'm joined with the
resident Nick fan.
The resident Nick fan and theresident Indiana Pacer fan, Q
(00:25):
and Quag.
Speaker 2 (00:30):
How y'all fellas doing.
Go ahead, Quag.
What's up, my boy.
Speaker 1 (00:33):
He probably ain't doing so hot right now.
I'm here, man, I feel it.
Speaker 2 (00:37):
I feel it.
Q, how you doing man, man,y'all are not the best.
It's your boy, mr Bell.
I can't say your name beforethe fire Might not fit you in my
mind.
I mean, bro, you know what I'msaying Before we get into like
actual basketball shit.
Today my son graduated from thefifth.
He moved on from the fifthgrade.
I keep saying graduate.
He had a ceremony going fromfifth to middle school and all I
(00:59):
could keep replaying in my headis that I'm getting old.
And I go back to when we justdid this live fight in person.
I said I'm about to be 36.
And then I said damn.
And all day I've been lookingat people like this nigga.
Speaker 1 (01:14):
I really said damn.
Speaker 2 (01:16):
Bro, I said this about four times today.
Like this nigga, I really saiddamn, and I'm not that old bro.
First off, first off, don'tdamn me.
Secondly, but I ain't gonna lie, I do feel old Now that I got
Middle school, so it's different.
But yeah, other than that, I'msturdy.
Speaker 1 (01:37):
I mean I feel like you gotta be having A good day.
Like I said, that was Aabsolutely Great game One for
the Eastern Conference FinalsDefinitely blew great game one
for the Eastern ConferenceFinals Definitely blew the first
game of the Western ConferenceFinals out of the water.
But we will get to that laterfor a short bit.
But we got to talk about thisgame one and since I have an
(01:58):
Indiana Pacers fan and a NewYork Knicks fan who I will
guarantee will be going at itfor the majority of not only
this podcast but the futurepodcasts while this series is
going on, I just want to get mythoughts first.
I mean great game, indian.
The Pacers came out hot.
I think they started out8-for-8, but you know how
basketball is.
That is not sustainable.
The Knicks came back, theyfought back and I feel like the
(02:21):
Knicks pretty much dominatedmost of the game from the second
quarter on to about what twominutes into the fourth quarter.
To me there was two moments asI'm watching the game.
I believe the Pacers are downfour points and Jalen Brunson
gets his fifth foul and he getsit with roughly ten minutes to
(02:44):
go in the fourth quarter and atthis point I'm thinking, oh,
pacers got it.
All they got to do.
Hey, brunson's on the, they gotto hit him and hit him hard,
while Brunson's on the benchwith five fouls.
But the exact opposite happenedand the Knicks went on a 14-0
run and at that point I'mthinking it's over.
(03:04):
Brunson was not on the court.
Brunson comes back on the courtand then for some reason the
Indiana Pacers show back up,comes down.
At one point it was 94-111.
Aaron Neesmith turned intoSteph Curry in a USA Olympic
jersey as he's just shootingfrom any and everywhere, brings
(03:27):
him on back and you know theyplay the foul game a little bit.
Tyrese gets the ball in clutchmoment as they are down two.
Looks like he's going for thetwo.
He rushes back out to thethree-point line, shoots it, it
bounced up and it falls in andI'm thinking this is the
greatest shot since the KawhiWinner shot has happened.
Turns out just to be a two,it's just to be a two, but the
(03:51):
Pacers did finish him off inovertime to take to take the 138
to 135 lead.
So before we get to the fan ofthe winning team, I want to ask
DQ his thoughts of his New YorkKnicks and how they.
I'm just going to say they kindof choked that one away in game
(04:13):
one.
What's your thoughts, man?
How are you feeling?
Speaker 3 (04:18):
I'm feeling all right , man, the Pacers had to do all
that to win.
I'm feeling alright.
That's not sustainable.
All this lucky shit that begoing on not sustainable.
I don't see this happeningagain.
Speaker 1 (04:33):
Knicks in five okay, knicks in five.
I think this game, this series,is going straight seven.
Watching these two teams goback and forth, I want this
thing to go to seven.
Q, your team won, your teampulled it out.
I know you was nervous, becauseI was nervous as a fan of
(04:54):
neither one of these teams.
I'm nervous watching this game.
My heart is racing, but it wasjust that damn good of a game.
Speaker 2 (05:02):
Let's break down the game a little in depth, though.
Right, like you said, whenBrunson went out, you thinking
this is time for the Pacers toattack.
And we didn't.
We let OG get a couple shots,we let Big Purr get a couple
shots, but before that,throughout the second half,
(05:25):
shots, but before that,throughout the second half,
indiana would.
Yeah, throughout the secondhalf and a little bit in the
second quarter, indiana wouldget it down to a two-point lead,
one-point lead, and every timewe would do that, new York would
stretch it right back out.
Every time, new York wouldstretch it right back out.
Every time we got within two orone points, new York would
stretch it right out.
And in my head I'm thinkinglike yo, we can't keep doing
(05:48):
this, we're going to have to getover the hump.
But the problem was we werestarting baskets from New York.
For most of this game, weattempted to start baskets with
a team that's already up eightpoints, then 10 points, then 12
points.
You can't continue to startbaskets with a team like that.
At some point you, you got tomake stops.
We finally did.
We went on a 20-4, 20-2 run.
(06:12):
Within the last two and someminutes of the game, we finally
get stopped, we start hustling,we start attacking the ball,
trying to get to the loose balls, and start playing hustle
defense, which is what we haveto do.
Where was I at for the firstthree?
For the first?
Basically, 44, 45 minutes ofthe game, 46 minutes.
(06:32):
We didn't do that.
I ain't going to go too farbecause I got some stuff I want
to get off my chest.
As far as hating, we can go.
We can move past that.
Speaker 1 (06:46):
We can get there.
Let's just go ahead and focuson finishing up on Game 1.
Game 1 is probably one of thebest games that I've seen in
these playoffs, and there's beensome great games in this
playoffs.
That's saying a lot, especiallyin the Eastern Conference part
of the playoffs, but it's onlyGame 1.
(07:08):
That's my, especially in theEastern Conference Final Eastern
Conference, eastern part of theplayoffs, but it's only game
one.
That's my Great Woods series.
You know that game one Nextgame could be a blowout.
Who knows?
My question for you guys,though let's just call a spade a
spade.
The Knicks pretty much chokedthis one away.
The momentum is in the Pacers,on the Pacers' side, dq, q.
(07:29):
Do you guys think the Knickscould get that momentum back to
their side, especially on gametwo, or do you think the Pacers
can hold this?
Because this is basically whathappened.
I feel what happened in thelast round with both teams.
Really, the Pacers beat theCavs in Game 1 and Game 2, and
they got that momentum and theynever looked back.
(07:51):
Same with the Knicks when theybeat the Celtics.
They beat them in Game 1 andGame 2, and they never looked
back.
So Game 2 is very important, Ibelieve from my perspective, but
how do you think that plays outin terms of the momentum?
Do?
Speaker 2 (08:10):
you think the Pacers can keep it or do you think the
Knicks can get that back?
So I mean, let's be fair, likeyou said, the Knicks is a good
thing.
We're not going to sit here andact like we're going to sweep
the Knicks.
So the theory of yeah, we gotthe momentum right now, but the
momentum ends when that nextgame gets tipped off Because
(08:30):
it's fresh, late.
Okay, what happened happened?
Fresh, late.
The momentum is whoever's goingto win this game, who's going
to start out hot?
Only way momentum could carryand, like I talked about before
with the Cleveland Cavaliers, weattempting to break souls.
That's what we do.
We try to run people to death.
We attempting to break yoursoul.
We attempting to break yourspirit and where you at.
(08:51):
Only way we're going to do thatis if we go up on a 20-point
lead to start out in the firsthalf.
I don't feel as if New York'sgoing to allow us to go on one
of those what we do withCleveland.
The game before was up at 41.
New York ain't ready to do it.
They gonna, they gonna, theygonna have some fight cause they
(09:12):
got dudes, they got some dogson their team.
So momentum yeah, we got itright now, until the next game
gets tipped off thank you, man,you're next.
Speaker 1 (09:26):
You think I can grab that momentum back I think they.
Speaker 3 (09:29):
I agree with you a little bit.
Yeah, they had the momentum,but I mean, how much momentum is
it really?
You know what I mean?
How much of that is momentumand how much of that is we won
the game Like they was down thewhole game Not the whole game,
(09:52):
but for the most part of thegame, like y'all had to damn
shoot up in a knee-smith.
Hey, I said to test that boy,didn't I say test him?
I said to test him last series,d Smith, nimhard, any end on
the team.
You got an end in your name.
Bruh Halliburton, test them.
Speaker 1 (10:15):
Yeah, they might need to test Halliburton after that
crazy shot at the end of theregular Look.
Speaker 3 (10:18):
I was trying to avoid for doing this.
I'm going to go get that cardout the car now.
I'm going to put that card cardout the car now.
I'm going to put that card onhim.
Speaker 2 (10:26):
now.
Stop it, chill.
We ain't got no problems overhere.
Look I ain't going to lie.
Neesmith kept hitting themthrees.
All I kept doing was like Nickball it in.
That's what you want to do,don't nobody else want to?
Speaker 3 (10:37):
do it, nick, ball it in.
He plays hard, like he'splaying hard the whole game.
He's telling Carlisle hey man,you need to challenge that.
And Carlisle's like nigga, getback on defense.
Speaker 1 (10:49):
What are you doing?
I'm glad you said that DQ, andI'm glad Rick Carlisle is the
only.
I feel like the rest of thecoaches actually just listen to
their players.
It'd be a play that happens inthe first five minutes of the
first quarter.
Now you're looking at theircoach to challenge.
You're like bro, it is thefirst quarter, first five
minutes, don't worry about it.
Rick Carlisle actually savedhis challenge for the most
(11:12):
opportune time.
He needed it when they matteredthe absolute most.
Credit to him.
More coaches need to do that.
More players need to stop justas soon as a player that doesn't
go their way that probablycould go the opposite way.
They look to their coach tochallenge.
You only get one and you getanother one unless you get it.
So they got to treat themchallenges more like gold,
(11:35):
especially Draymond Green.
He wants to challenge everysingle player.
Man I know he's terrible toplay with on the street ball
court.
He wants to argue about everycall.
Hey, let's just play ball.
Speaker 2 (11:46):
At some point like all right, bro, you're doing a
lot of acting.
Just come on, bro, let's justrun it.
We ain't even calling the foulson you.
No more Like, forget it.
Speaker 1 (11:58):
But another thing it was a bigger problem last year
with the Knicks injuries, but Ithink it could be another
problem last year with theKnicks injuries, but I think it
could be another problem thisyear.
I think this is a bad matchupfor the Knicks.
The reason why I picked thePacers the Knicks is a fast pace
, like you said.
They want us to run you down tothe ground.
Hey, they're going to go about8 to 10 deep on their bench.
(12:21):
There's a lot of people that'sgoing to come off the bench.
There's going to be a lot ofpeople that score.
The Knicks is kind of the exactopposite.
They are grinded out, nittygritty, tough and they only go
about seven deep on the bench.
Now I will say Thibodeau, hedid a little something.
He went a little deeper in hisbench than he usually does.
Now, they didn't play nothingbut like a couple, couple
seconds, like 30 seconds, but hedid something that he doesn't
(12:44):
usually do.
I think he went about 8-9 deep.
Speaker 3 (12:48):
He had to, though he had the poor Cam, he had the
poor Deuce.
Yep, I mean, you got to godeeper than your 7-8.
You got to go 9-10.
Speaker 1 (13:01):
Do you think Tom is going to do that for the rest of
the season?
I feel like with the teamyou're facing, that's not a team
you can only go 6-7 deep, withthey going to run you to death
and they going to go about 10.
Speaker 3 (13:13):
The Pacers are going 11 and we going 9.
We going to have to go to our11.
I mean, our 11 is precious,achua that's the thing.
Speaker 2 (13:28):
Tim act like he got bums on his bench.
Speaker 3 (13:30):
That's the thing.
He always acted like that.
Speaker 2 (13:34):
But Precious ain't no bum.
Speaker 1 (13:36):
No, and Cam ain't no bum.
He came in and did a littlesomething too, Like why wasn't
he playing more in the playoffs?
Like come on now.
Speaker 2 (13:45):
Y'all got dudes that can give you 10 minutes a game
and it's not going to mess it up.
But, tibbs, don't do that.
But you're going to have to dothat, especially with Hank.
Speaker 3 (13:58):
When y'all pull y'all starters, we pull our starters.
Speaker 2 (14:02):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (14:03):
He's not going to do it, though the Pacers
technically went we pull a lotof starters.
Speaker 1 (14:05):
Yeah, he's not going to do it, though.
The Pacers technically went 10deep and the Knicks the Knicks
technically went 8 deep, but Idid see Wright.
He was the guy that only wentin for like 36.
Speaker 2 (14:22):
Yeah, I was going to say DeLon Wright only played.
Speaker 1 (14:23):
He only played for like 36.
That was to give guy that onlywent in for like 30 seconds.
Speaker 3 (14:26):
Yeah, I was going to say DeLon Wright only played.
He only played for like 30seconds.
That was to give campaign abreak Because he was giving,
because Brunson was in foultrouble.
Speaker 1 (14:37):
I think Tom has to go a little bit deeper on his
bench to compete with the Pacersthe way Tom likes to coach.
This is the worst team to play,because they're going to run
you to death and they're goingto test your conditioning and
they are very well conditionedup there in Indiana.
Speaker 2 (14:53):
Yeah, that's what we do.
That's what we, like I said,our attempt is to run you into
the ground, attempt to break youup, because, in fact, like the
Knicks was up, we brought itback down.
We try to break people'sspirits in those two.
We never going to quit.
Then we're going to run you todeath I don't know where you're
(15:14):
going next but I got to get myshit off.
Go ahead, I got to get my shitoff.
Can I give you a minute Firstoff.
Now it's turning.
You're going to have to playbetter.
Mitchell Robinson is bodyingeverybody in the play.
Give Mitchell Robinson hiscredit.
He playing defense, he going onthe switches, and that hurt
guarding the guards.
(15:34):
He doing a good job at it, aswhere normally that's Mal Cernan
.
You're going to have to playBell.
That's the thing number one.
If Mitchell Robinson is gettingall these offensive rebounds,
god damn it, stop his ass.
At least attempt shit.
Like I've been saying quick,miles Turner, he's gonna play
(15:55):
better.
As much as I praise MilesTurner, everybody know I'm a big
fan of Miles Turner becauseeverybody hated on him because
they wanted to keep Sabonis.
But I was like well, you gottakeep Miles because he blocked
shots and he knocked down threeSabonis.
Don't do that.
Miles helps you space the floor.
Miles, do what you're supposedto do and stop getting played
off the court.
Speaker 1 (16:16):
Yeah, he did.
Miles did start off the gamevery, very hot, you know.
Got to give him credit for that.
Speaker 2 (16:20):
And then he got to the fourth quarter.
Speaker 3 (16:26):
He heard her missing layups and shit.
That's the thing He'll get tothe back.
He got to the second quarter.
What you talking about, cat,was giving to him.
Speaker 2 (16:30):
Then Mal's a seven foot and then he'll get in the
paint and he start.
No, he got a smaller person onhim and he start rushing.
Don't rush, take your time.
Take your time, dog.
Make them come double and theypass the ball out.
Speaker 3 (16:46):
You, let McKill lock you up, bumper you up.
Speaker 2 (16:50):
Bruh, he let Josh Horst 6'4", 6'5", 6'6", whatever
he is, you make him lock you upbecause you rushing.
It ain't that Josh Horst doingthat, but you just rushing
through missing wide open layups.
I can't even get over Ob ObiToppin for missing that dunk.
That was a crazy dunk.
He did make up for it.
He made up for it, so you can'treally say nothing to him.
Being a shepherd you talkedabout playing a team.
(17:13):
Being a shepherd playingtowards the end of the fourth
quarter, jalen Brunson's justlike alright, out of all the
dudes y'all got over there thatcan play defense, this is the
one y'all pick.
Speaker 1 (17:23):
Nobody can guard Jalen Brunson.
It's true, nobody.
Speaker 2 (17:27):
It's true, he's a foul.
You know what DQ, what Bowlineand column foul merchant?
Does he just be getting fouls?
It's just whatever A merchant,A merchant.
Speaker 1 (17:40):
He might be a peddler , but he ain't no merchant.
That would be great to talkabout.
But they could not keep JalenBrunson out of the lane Anytime.
He wanted to go to the lane.
He was getting to the lane.
Speaker 2 (17:48):
Jalen Brunson looking at Ben Sherpa like all right
bro come on this is really whaty'all doing now.
All right, Brunson's food, thisis lunch all day.
Back up down Early time.
Back up down Early time, Pick arow.
And then looked at him like nah, bro, you ain't got it.
Hey, bro, you ain't got it.
I like Ben Sherford.
Ben Sherford is cool to come inand be like you said that tip
(18:09):
man off the bench.
But in the fourth quarter andyou playing that dude, Mr Clutch
himself, you playing that dude.
Nah, you're going to have to dobetter.
I would prefer Neesmith be onhim, but that's the thing.
That means you putting Nemhard,which is like 6'3", on Bridges,
(18:29):
which is like 6'8".
Yeah, they had Halliburtonguarding them at one time.
Yeah, that's my last thing,Halliburton, at one point.
Your ass is going to have toplay defense At some point in
the fourth quarter when they gofor that pick and roll.
You're taller than Brunson.
Look, just put your armsstraight in the air.
So just put your arms in theair and jump.
(18:49):
Don't try to go for the ball,Don't reach over, Don't do that,
Just go like this.
Speaker 1 (18:56):
The Pacers had two back-to-back possessions where
they fouled a three-pointshooter Just awful.
Fouls too, yeah, that's thething.
That's the thing, just awfulfouls too.
Speaker 2 (19:03):
Yeah, that's the thing, that's the thing to
ignore there.
Speaker 1 (19:06):
But I mean, we won the game.
They won the game, but thePacers did win the game.
Congratulations to the Pacersfor winning game one.
Game two is on Friday, Still inthe garden.
I'm just going to go ahead andask you guys right now who y'all
think going to pull it out ingame two.
Hey, Quentin.
Speaker 3 (19:25):
Realistically, I don't see us losing in the guard
.
No more.
The refs know they job.
They know what to do from nowon.
Speaker 1 (19:32):
The refs know they job.
Speaker 3 (19:35):
Look, we cheated in New York.
I ain't gonna hold you.
We cheated in New York.
At least this season we havebeen.
Speaker 2 (19:43):
No, y'all haven't bro , Y'all really haven't bro,
y'all winning games in New York,y'all ain't getting cheated at
these games, stop it.
Speaker 3 (19:53):
No, I'm saying we do cheat in New York.
We cheat all the time, man.
Speaker 2 (19:55):
Oh, okay, yeah, yeah, yeah, man, you admit the mixed
team.
That's what I said.
Speaker 3 (19:58):
No, I'm saying in New York this season, I'm not

cheating like a motherfucker.
Speaker 2 (20:07):

nobody be around, even his, he'splaying his cousin.
Yesterday Even his cousin waslike come on, he didn't do, I
(20:37):
didn't touch him.
Game two I mean, let's be real,we got one on the road.
New Game two I mean, let's bereal, we got one on the road.
New York's a very hostile place.
I don't know if you're going toget two in a row.
I'm just saying.
Speaker 1 (20:55):
But yeah, I also have the Knicks winning game two.
I have the Knicks winning gametwo, but I have this series
going to seven.
I want to say the pace is bad.
I'm going to just hold off onmy final thought.
I'm going to wait until game.
I really want to wait untilgame seven and see how it feels,
but I just want to game sevenfor one, two.
I think it's going to go togame seven.
Speaker 2 (21:19):
Let's go ahead.
Hold on what you mean?
You want to wait until gameseven.
Speaker 1 (21:23):
What I want to get to the bottom and see how I feel.
Speaker 2 (21:26):
Four minutes left to pick a winner.
Every way you do it, bro, picka winner.
Speaker 1 (21:31):
I said Pacers.
That's what my gut is tellingme.
But hey, I have the right tochange my answer when game seven
comes.
Go ahead.
Speaker 2 (21:42):
He's going to wait until game seven with three
seconds left.
Speaker 3 (21:43):
Something about, yeah man, I'm going with the Pacers.
Yeah, I knew the Pacers wasgoing to do it the whole time, I
don't know who's going to win.
Speaker 1 (21:51):
I think the Pacers is going to win.
I'm just not confident.
Speaker 3 (21:54):
Watching what I watch , I would think the Knicks
should win.
But hell, I mean the Pacers.
Look, they must have got aleprechaun up there or something
, I don't know.
Speaker 1 (22:06):
They look, they must have got a leprechaun up there
or something, I don't know.
They got something, they gotsomething, but let's go ahead
and stop here.
I think they're lucky.
Speaker 2 (22:09):
A lot of the faces is lucky nowadays.
Speaker 3 (22:12):
They keep doing the same and it's the same
schematics every time Y'all down15.
Y'all hit a bunch of threes.
Halliburton, get the ball.
Boom.
It happened every time.
That's just the game plan, butthat's our fault that these
teams can't close.
Speaker 2 (22:31):
They can't close the game.
That's our fault that multipleteams can't close the game.
Look like you said it's beenthe game plan.
We've been doing it formultiple series.
Ain't nobody else stopped tostop it.
That's all I'm saying.
Speaker 3 (22:47):
They be trying hell and somehow you end up with Mr
Thompson on Halliburton and he'shitting the choke symbol,
thinking he closed the game.
I know, nigga, your foot was onthe line.
You're doing too much I didn'tlike it.
Speaker 2 (23:02):
I liked it, but I didn't at the same time.
Speaker 3 (23:04):
I did like it because you know you talking your shit,
but your foot was on the line,like he was like oh shit, let me
run back out here.
Shit, it's make or break.
Speaker 1 (23:14):
When I seen that the game was going overtime, I was
like Tyrese, you got to win, youhave to win.
Speaker 3 (23:19):
Yeah, you got to win at that point you gotta win, but
they won.
Speaker 1 (23:23):
It's gonna be an iconic moment for years to come.
He's gonna be up there withReggie Miller.
Anytime they post ReggieMiller's choke celebration
picture, they gonna post hisright next to him.
Speaker 3 (23:35):
So can we have a conversation, though, like a
small one?
What's up, don't say nothingcrazy.
I'm not gonna say nothing crazy.
Speaker 2 (23:44):
I'm gonna get on this party go.
Speaker 3 (23:45):
They be saying look, they be talking about how Jason
Tatum be doing all this, allthis damn you know dick riding
and whatnot, trying to be youknow somebody that he ain't.
What about Halliburton?
He ain't he being who he is.
Is he being who he is?
It's not like he wanna just beReggie Miller at this point.
Speaker 1 (24:06):
That's the first time he's really done something
similar to somebody he's wearingthe Reggie Miller shirts doing
everything I mean.
I understand you playing forthe franchise.
I think that's just payinghomage to the best player in the
franchise.
Speaker 3 (24:17):
He's paying homage, okay, or is it super glazing?
Speaker 2 (24:24):
I mean, hold on, I don't think he's glazing, I
think he like you know, reggie,calling the game.
Speaker 3 (24:32):
I mean this for you big bruh, this for you Big homie
.
Speaker 2 (24:37):
Let's be real.
No, you're right, he knowReggie's over calling the game.
That's why he did the chokeserve.
Yeah, you're right, it'sabsolutely.
But that's who he is, though.
He's a confident dude,especially late in the game.
Speaker 3 (24:52):
where is daddy at man ?
Bring that nigga daddy up,that'll shake the table.
Speaker 2 (24:56):
Bro was on the court.
Hey, bro, sit your ass down,shake the table after that shot
first off, I thought I saw thatI didn't know that was his dad.
Speaker 3 (25:05):
I was like damn that, look like that dude, look like
gilly the kid.
I wasn't sure if that was thedaddy or not.
Speaker 2 (25:11):
If it, was what we bro.
What are we doing?
Sit down somewhere.
You already cautioned us,though.
Speaker 1 (25:19):
That's why he got.
Speaker 3 (25:20):
I will tell you what I did my highlight of the game,
even though we lost Cat, hit thethree over Miles Turner and
then tapped James Johnson in thechest.
Speaker 2 (25:30):
That's some heart you got to give him.
That.
That's some heart.
Speaker 3 (25:33):
I said damn boy.
But they used to play togetherso I was like I respect that,
that's some heart.
I said damn boy.
Speaker 1 (25:36):
But you know they used to play together so I was
like, alright, respect, I mean,that's still.
You know who that is.
That's a few people you don'tfight in the NBA.
Speaker 3 (25:43):
Nah, nah, they played together in Minnesota.
It's all a little, that's justbeing honest.
Speaker 1 (25:47):
I'm not antagonizing.
Speaker 3 (25:49):
He in street clothes, he ain't gonna do nothing.
Nah, he ain't playing.
Speaker 1 (25:53):
Oh, he was playing, I could have sworn he had on a
collar shirt, he playing, hejust ain't playing.
Speaker 2 (25:59):
He just ain't playing .
Yeah, that's the best way todescribe it.
Speaker 1 (26:05):
He playing, he just ain't playing.
But yeah, so game one in thebooks, game two Friday, but
let's switch gears to theWestern Conference finals, which
was boring.
That man is shade he gets.
I'm a Wade fan and I knew Wadegot a crazy whistle, but Shea
(26:27):
gets an insane whistle.
The OKC thing honest to God,guys, I was watching it.
Okc started to run away with it.
I fell asleep on the game.
I ain't even going to lie toy'all, I fell asleep on it.
I woke up and realized, oh, okcwon.
That's what it's looking like.
More so, though, I do want totalk about OKC won 14-8.
I do want to talk about Sheawas officially announced the MVP
(26:51):
.
This was the latest theyannounced the MVP, for some odd
reason, but they did.
Shea won MVP.
Top three was Shea, jokic andGiannis.
Your thoughts on the boringgame, one of the West Coast
Confrontals, and, moreimportantly, your thoughts on
Shea officially being named theMVP of the NBA, being the third
(27:13):
OKC player to do so, withRussell Westbrook and Kevin
Durant Q.
Speaker 2 (27:20):
I mean, let's call it .
We all knew he was the MVP.
For the past couple weeks myson was like who you think will
win the MVP?
It's Shay.
They just ain't announced ityet I already know who's going
to be the MVP.
We knew who it was going to be.
I do want to hear yourperspective, because you said
you think it should be Joker.
I do want to hear yourperspective because you said you
think it should be Joker.
I do want to hear why you saythat I think it should have been
SGA, because not only did heindividually, but look where his
(27:44):
team is.
They had the number one recordin the West by a good couple of
games.
Thoughts on game one.
My biggest takeaway from gameone is it ain Ant ankle.
Okay, because it's the secondtime Ant that came up limping on
that ankle and he had to goback to the locker room.
(28:05):
You see, when he came back fromthe locker room, he wasn't the
same Ant.
He wasn't the same he ain't hadthat bounce on that three, like
he normally do, and then he quitattacking the basket.
If Ant ain't 100%, minnesotacan't win this game.
They can't win this serieswithout Ant being 100%.
I think that's without, I don'tthink that's.
(28:25):
You know that ain't rocketscience.
You know what I'm saying,captain Obvious right there that
I just said that Julius Randleball put up 20 points in the
first half.
Bro took like four shots in thesecond half.
Speaker 1 (28:42):
I don't know what's that.
If I'm hot, I'm coming out likea flamethrower in the second
half too especially once you seeAnne and Gat.
Speaker 2 (28:50):
yeah, once you see Anne and Gat.
If you, julius Randle, like,alright, I'm the second best
player on this team, let me goget the ball, let me go put up
these baskets, let me try tocarry us.
Let me try to carry us home.
Hell, minnesota shot 53s.
Y'all they playing that Bostongame.
Y'all think 15 of them.
Y'all probably should have notshot and drove to the basket in
(29:12):
an attempt to get the foul.
Yeah, I mean hindsight, me in2020, but I'm saying you
shouldn't be shooting fifththrees and y'all knew y'all
wasn't making it.
Now I think I would giveMinnesota Minnesota does have
some hope.
I think they was like one up.
I forgot the stat.
I was listening to BrianWinhart, the hoop collector.
(29:36):
They had a bunch of open threes.
Minnesota did they.
Just, I forgot the stat.
I was listening to BrianWinhart's name the Hoop
Collector.
They had a bunch of open threes.
Minnesota did, they, justweren't making them.
So if they make some of thosethrees, the game might end up
being different, but you wasn'tmaking them.
So I think you should havetaken the basket.
Speaker 1 (29:48):
Yeah, let me just go ahead.
Jokers won the MVP.
I think Jokers should have wonthe MVP.
He averaged a triple-double.
I think he's head and shouldersthe best player in the league.
It is to the point where it'slike you can give it to him
every year.
But you know, the NBA sometimesis a yield-turned league.
They did it with Joel.
(30:09):
Shea is a deserving player.
I just think he's playing in anera where someone head and
shoulders better than him, whichis Joker, in an era where
someone's head and shouldersbetter than him, which is Joker,
but everybody always talksabout well, his team was the
best, which granted they was.
If that's the case, donovanMitchell, from our perspective,
should have got a lot more MVPlove.
(30:30):
Now, he did finish top five,fifth to be exact but if it's
more so, your team's successDonovan Mitchell should have
been getting a lot more lovethan what he did.
That's how I see it, but I'mnot saying Shea shouldn't have
won it.
If I was a voter, I would havevoted for Joker and if you guys
(30:52):
was interested in how the votingwent, shea did receive 71 first
place votes, 29 second placevotes.
Joker received 29 first placevotes and 71 second place votes.
Nobody else received any firstor second place votes.
Giannis received 88 third placevotes, jason Taylor received 11
(31:14):
third place votes and DonovanMitchell received one third
place votes.
Jason Taylor received 11 thirdplace votes and Donovan Mitchell
received one third place vote.
So that's how I lined up.
But, like I said, if it's abouta team success as well, donovan
Mitchell should have been alittle bit higher on the MVP
ladder board.
Dq your thoughts on Sheawinning the MVP and that boring
(31:35):
game one for the WesternConference Finals.
I wanted to DQ your thoughts onShea winning the MVP and that
boring Game one For the WesternConference Finals.
Speaker 3 (31:39):
I wanted to.
I wanted to see the you knowTimberwolves do something
Besides lose.
I have my money on them.
I wanted to see the New YorkMinnesota Matchup.
Y'all swap players.
Woo, woo, woo.
This is the Storyline you knowYo coach used to be they coach
Blah blah, blah up.
You know y'all swap players Woo, woo, woo.
This is the storyline.
You know your coach used to betheir coach Blah blah, blah.
(32:01):
But man OKC, they're going tosmack whoever come in front of
them from here on out.
Speaker 1 (32:10):
They might.
Speaker 3 (32:12):
They got bodies.
Now, like I said, the Knicks ispretty deep.
I thought the Timberwolves waspretty deep.
Okc is deep boy.
What I say is three types ofwomen in this world and OKC is
that deep end boy.
Speaker 1 (32:33):
They definitely on that deep end.
I do want to get you guys,before we get out here, the
thoughts of how you want to putit.
They call him the free throwmerchant, the crazy whistle man
Shay.
He gets to the line and a lotof them fouls is nothing, he's
just.
I don't know how he's doing it.
I don't know what type ofblackmail he has on some of
(32:57):
these refs.
He getting anything he wants,Anytime he looks like he's about
to fall, he gets a whistle.
Is that something you guys area fan of?
Do you think it's egregious?
Because some people have beensaying, like man, it's boring to
watch, because every time youturn on the game he's at the
free throw line shooting freethrows.
I don't want to watch somebodyshoot free throws all game.
Speaker 2 (33:20):
You got to be a friend of him because Jalen do
it all the time too.
Speaker 3 (33:24):
It's totally different, bro, he's not a fine
merchant at all, bro.
He does more scoring than fromanywhere else besides the line.
Shea took two shots and had 15points yesterday.
Speaker 2 (33:40):
Brunson had 14 free throws tonight, bruh.
Speaker 3 (33:43):
Tonight.
Speaker 2 (33:45):
It's every night, bruh.
Speaker 3 (33:47):
I'm saying how many shots he put up 30?
, 40?
, what am?
Speaker 2 (33:51):
I going to do?
Where am I peeing at?
We going right now, every time,every night, how many fouls
Brunson has, how many free throwshots he take.
He does the same thing.
And then we're going to compareit to SGA he does the same
thing, they play the same way.
So I know you a fan though.
Speaker 3 (34:12):
I don't necessarily care for SGA he ain't never been
my band.
He out there, move your bodylike a snake man.
That's how he be getting,because he be contorting out
there big.
Speaker 1 (34:23):
Jalen Brunson took 14 free throws tonight, and Mr
Shea Gildress Alexander, he alsotook 14 free throws.
So you know pretty even.
Speaker 2 (34:41):
They play the same way.
Speaker 3 (34:45):
That's crazy.
Speaker 2 (34:46):
I'm just calling the house.
Speaker 3 (34:47):
I mean I'm saying but Brunson looked like man, he
looked like AI and Chris Paulhad a baby man.
Speaker 2 (34:53):
No, he don't, Don't Stop.
Speaker 1 (34:56):
That is a wild statement.
He is not a floor general likeChris Paul.
Speaker 2 (35:01):
That's my biggest the AI stuff.
I can see it, I don't see you.
Chris Paul, he can get you six,seven, he can get you seven,
but nah, I wouldn't call him afloor general.
Speaker 1 (35:16):
No, he's not a floor general.
I don't know why you came upwith that, but that's from your
perspective, chris Paul.
No, that's from yourperspective, quag.
Speaker 3 (35:23):
It's because Chris Paul and AI had a baby.
You take a game from each one,okay.
Speaker 1 (35:30):
He's not even okay From my perspective.
He's not even close to ChrisPaul, Not even close.
Speaker 2 (35:34):
I feel what you're saying.
You take a little bit and youput it in, they mix them
together and that's what youcome out with.
I feel what you're saying.
I just Okay, if not Chris Paul,then who?
I can see the AI.
I can see the AI.
Speaker 3 (35:52):
I didn't want to say AI and Derrick Rose, because
that's too similar to me.
Speaker 2 (35:57):
Yeah, he just ain't got the athleticism that D Rose
be.
Now obviously he's like I don'twant to say a pro, I'm Derrick
Williams to me.
Yeah, that's why I said DerrickWilliams, because he was
similar to Chris Powell, butjust wasn't as good.
No shame, then again.
Speaker 1 (36:13):
Derrick Williams.
He used his.
Speaker 3 (36:15):
It was very cheap.
Speaker 1 (36:16):
He wasn't tall, but he was a bigger body and was
able to get to the lane.
That's how Jalen Brunson ishe's not tall, but he's a bigger
body, able to slid his waythrough the lane and get to the
lane.
That's.
Speaker 2 (36:26):
Yeah, I see that.
So Derrick Williams and AImixed together and that's what
you come out with A solid player.
But, and you know, throw alittle sprinkle of that little
James Horton hunt for the foul,because you got Taylor Preston,
a little AI, a little DarrenWilliams and a little sprinkle
(36:47):
of that James Horton hunt forthe foul.
Boom, there, you got TaylorPreston.
Speaker 3 (36:50):
Shout out to Sam Preston.
He got him another MVP on hisbelt.
Speaker 1 (36:54):
Yeah, shout out, but he probably needs, he wants him.
Can we keep a championship,though he?
Speaker 2 (37:00):
do but think about the drafts he had.
He drafted James Harden,russell Westbrook, kevin Durant,
jeff Green, serge Ibaka.
Like he done drafted a bunch ofdudes.
Imagine SGA was drafted by theclub when they got traded to
third for Steelers.
Speaker 3 (37:18):
But he got rid of weak-ass, damn Paul George.
He said man, I'll give you PaulGeorge, I'll give you Paul
George for SGA Clevers, I think.
Speaker 2 (37:26):
Clevers, I think, was going to get the better of that
deal.
Speaker 1 (37:27):
Apparently not.
Who ain't getting a good deal?
Philly, you guys got anythingy'all want to get off your chest
Before we get out of here.
You know you got game and I'mtaking Angel Reese all day.
Speaker 3 (37:41):
That's all I gotta say.
Speaker 1 (37:43):
Alright, well, again Game two of the Western
Conference.
Final Is you know, technically,tonight.
Speaker 2 (37:49):
He trying to do it.
I can't say that.
But no, but what's the final?
That ain't, that's not.
I'll talk about it tomorrow.
You ain't going to be here.
I'll get it out, but shit'stomorrow.

It's your boy, mr Bell.
I can't say your name beforethe fire Might not fit you in my
mind.
I mean, bro, you know what I'msaying Before we get into like
actual basketball shit.
Today my son graduated from thefifth.
He moved on from the fifthgrade.
I keep saying graduate.
He had a ceremony going fromfifth to middle school and all I
(00:59):
could keep replaying in my headis that I'm getting old.
And I go back to when we justdid this live fight in person.
I said I'm about to be 36.
And then I said damn.
And all day I've been lookingat people like this nigga.
Speaker 1 (01:14):
I really said damn.
Speaker 2 (01:16):
Bro, I said this about four times today.
Like this nigga, I really saiddamn, and I'm not that old bro.
First off, first off, don'tdamn me.
Secondly, but I ain't gonna lie, I do feel old Now that I got
Middle school, so it's different.
But yeah, other than that, I'msturdy.
Speaker 1 (01:37):
I mean I feel like you gotta be having A good day.
Like I said, that was Aabsolutely Great game One for
the Eastern Conference FinalsDefinitely blew great game one
for the Eastern ConferenceFinals Definitely blew the first
game of the Western ConferenceFinals out of the water.
But we will get to that laterfor a short bit.
But we got to talk about thisgame one and since I have an
(01:58):
Indiana Pacers fan and a NewYork Knicks fan who I will
guarantee will be going at itfor the majority of not only
this podcast but the futurepodcasts while this series is
going on, I just want to get mythoughts first.
I mean great game, indian.
The Pacers came out hot.
I think they started out8-for-8, but you know how
basketball is.
That is not sustainable.
The Knicks came back, theyfought back and I feel like the
(02:21):
Knicks pretty much dominatedmost of the game from the second
quarter on to about what twominutes into the fourth quarter.
To me there was two moments asI'm watching the game.
I believe the Pacers are downfour points and Jalen Brunson
gets his fifth foul and he getsit with roughly ten minutes to
(02:44):
go in the fourth quarter and atthis point I'm thinking, oh,
pacers got it.
All they got to do.
Hey, brunson's on the, they gotto hit him and hit him hard,
while Brunson's on the benchwith five fouls.
But the exact opposite happenedand the Knicks went on a 14-0
run and at that point I'mthinking it's over.
(03:04):
Brunson was not on the court.
Brunson comes back on the courtand then for some reason the
Indiana Pacers show back up,comes down.
At one point it was 94-111.
Aaron Neesmith turned intoSteph Curry in a USA Olympic
jersey as he's just shootingfrom any and everywhere, brings
(03:27):
him on back and you know theyplay the foul game a little bit.
Tyrese gets the ball in clutchmoment as they are down two.
Looks like he's going for thetwo.
He rushes back out to thethree-point line, shoots it, it
bounced up and it falls in andI'm thinking this is the
greatest shot since the KawhiWinner shot has happened.
Turns out just to be a two,it's just to be a two, but the
(03:51):
Pacers did finish him off inovertime to take to take the 138
to 135 lead.
So before we get to the fan ofthe winning team, I want to ask
DQ his thoughts of his New YorkKnicks and how they.
I'm just going to say they kindof choked that one away in game
(04:13):
one.
What's your thoughts, man?
How are you feeling?
Speaker 3 (04:18):
I'm feeling all right , man, the Pacers had to do all
that to win.
I'm feeling alright.
That's not sustainable.
All this lucky shit that begoing on not sustainable.
I don't see this happeningagain.
Speaker 1 (04:33):
Knicks in five okay, knicks in five.
I think this game, this series,is going straight seven.
Watching these two teams goback and forth, I want this
thing to go to seven.
Q, your team won, your teampulled it out.
I know you was nervous, becauseI was nervous as a fan of
(04:54):
neither one of these teams.
I'm nervous watching this game.
My heart is racing, but it wasjust that damn good of a game.
Speaker 2 (05:02):
Let's break down the game a little in depth, though.
Right, like you said, whenBrunson went out, you thinking
this is time for the Pacers toattack.
And we didn't.
We let OG get a couple shots,we let Big Purr get a couple
shots, but before that,throughout the second half,
(05:25):
shots, but before that,throughout the second half,
indiana would.
Yeah, throughout the secondhalf and a little bit in the
second quarter, indiana wouldget it down to a two-point lead,
one-point lead, and every timewe would do that, new York would
stretch it right back out.
Every time, new York wouldstretch it right back out.
Every time we got within two orone points, new York would
stretch it right out.
And in my head I'm thinkinglike yo, we can't keep doing
(05:48):
this, we're going to have to getover the hump.
But the problem was we werestarting baskets from New York.
For most of this game, weattempted to start baskets with
a team that's already up eightpoints, then 10 points, then 12
points.
You can't continue to startbaskets with a team like that.
At some point you, you got tomake stops.
We finally did.
We went on a 20-4, 20-2 run.
(06:12):
Within the last two and someminutes of the game, we finally
get stopped, we start hustling,we start attacking the ball,
trying to get to the loose balls, and start playing hustle
defense, which is what we haveto do.
Where was I at for the firstthree?
For the first?
Basically, 44, 45 minutes ofthe game, 46 minutes.
(06:32):
We didn't do that.
I ain't going to go too farbecause I got some stuff I want
to get off my chest.
As far as hating, we can go.
We can move past that.
Speaker 1 (06:46):
We can get there.
Let's just go ahead and focuson finishing up on Game 1.
Game 1 is probably one of thebest games that I've seen in
these playoffs, and there's beensome great games in this
playoffs.
That's saying a lot, especiallyin the Eastern Conference part
of the playoffs, but it's onlyGame 1.
(07:08):
That's my, especially in theEastern Conference Final Eastern
Conference, eastern part of theplayoffs, but it's only game
one.
That's my Great Woods series.
You know that game one Nextgame could be a blowout.
Who knows?
My question for you guys,though let's just call a spade a
spade.
The Knicks pretty much chokedthis one away.
The momentum is in the Pacers,on the Pacers' side, dq, q.
(07:29):
Do you guys think the Knickscould get that momentum back to
their side, especially on gametwo, or do you think the Pacers
can hold this?
Because this is basically whathappened.
I feel what happened in thelast round with both teams.
Really, the Pacers beat theCavs in Game 1 and Game 2, and
they got that momentum and theynever looked back.
(07:51):
Same with the Knicks when theybeat the Celtics.
They beat them in Game 1 andGame 2, and they never looked
back.
So Game 2 is very important, Ibelieve from my perspective, but
how do you think that plays outin terms of the momentum?
Do?
Speaker 2 (08:10):
you think the Pacers can keep it or do you think the
Knicks can get that back?
So I mean, let's be fair, likeyou said, the Knicks is a good
thing.
We're not going to sit here andact like we're going to sweep
the Knicks.
So the theory of yeah, we gotthe momentum right now, but the
momentum ends when that nextgame gets tipped off Because
(08:30):
it's fresh, late.
Okay, what happened happened?
Fresh, late.
The momentum is whoever's goingto win this game, who's going
to start out hot?
Only way momentum could carryand, like I talked about before
with the Cleveland Cavaliers, weattempting to break souls.
That's what we do.
We try to run people to death.
We attempting to break yoursoul.
We attempting to break yourspirit and where you at.
(08:51):
Only way we're going to do thatis if we go up on a 20-point
lead to start out in the firsthalf.
I don't feel as if New York'sgoing to allow us to go on one
of those what we do withCleveland.
The game before was up at 41.
New York ain't ready to do it.
They gonna, they gonna, theygonna have some fight cause they
(09:12):
got dudes, they got some dogson their team.
So momentum yeah, we got itright now, until the next game
gets tipped off thank you, man,you're next.
Speaker 1 (09:26):
You think I can grab that momentum back I think they.
Speaker 3 (09:29):
I agree with you a little bit.
Yeah, they had the momentum,but I mean, how much momentum is
it really?
You know what I mean?
How much of that is momentumand how much of that is we won
the game Like they was down thewhole game Not the whole game,
(09:52):
but for the most part of thegame, like y'all had to damn
shoot up in a knee-smith.
Hey, I said to test that boy,didn't I say test him?
I said to test him last series,d Smith, nimhard, any end on
the team.
You got an end in your name.
Bruh Halliburton, test them.
Speaker 1 (10:15):
Yeah, they might need to test Halliburton after that
crazy shot at the end of theregular Look.
Speaker 3 (10:18):
I was trying to avoid for doing this.
I'm going to go get that cardout the car now.
I'm going to put that card cardout the car now.
I'm going to put that card onhim.
Speaker 2 (10:26):
now.
Stop it, chill.
We ain't got no problems overhere.
Look I ain't going to lie.
Neesmith kept hitting themthrees.
All I kept doing was like Nickball it in.
That's what you want to do,don't nobody else want to?
Speaker 3 (10:37):
do it, nick, ball it in.
He plays hard, like he'splaying hard the whole game.
He's telling Carlisle hey man,you need to challenge that.
And Carlisle's like nigga, getback on defense.
Speaker 1 (10:49):
What are you doing?
I'm glad you said that DQ, andI'm glad Rick Carlisle is the
only.
I feel like the rest of thecoaches actually just listen to
their players.
It'd be a play that happens inthe first five minutes of the
first quarter.
Now you're looking at theircoach to challenge.
You're like bro, it is thefirst quarter, first five
minutes, don't worry about it.
Rick Carlisle actually savedhis challenge for the most
(11:12):
opportune time.
He needed it when they matteredthe absolute most.
Credit to him.
More coaches need to do that.
More players need to stop justas soon as a player that doesn't
go their way that probablycould go the opposite way.
They look to their coach tochallenge.
You only get one and you getanother one unless you get it.
So they got to treat themchallenges more like gold,
(11:35):
especially Draymond Green.
He wants to challenge everysingle player.
Man I know he's terrible toplay with on the street ball
court.
He wants to argue about everycall.
Hey, let's just play ball.
Speaker 2 (11:46):
At some point like all right, bro, you're doing a
lot of acting.
Just come on, bro, let's justrun it.
We ain't even calling the foulson you.
No more Like, forget it.
Speaker 1 (11:58):
But another thing it was a bigger problem last year
with the Knicks injuries, but Ithink it could be another
problem last year with theKnicks injuries, but I think it
could be another problem thisyear.
I think this is a bad matchupfor the Knicks.
The reason why I picked thePacers the Knicks is a fast pace
, like you said.
They want us to run you down tothe ground.
Hey, they're going to go about8 to 10 deep on their bench.
(12:21):
There's a lot of people that'sgoing to come off the bench.
There's going to be a lot ofpeople that score.
The Knicks is kind of the exactopposite.
They are grinded out, nittygritty, tough and they only go
about seven deep on the bench.
Now I will say Thibodeau, hedid a little something.
He went a little deeper in hisbench than he usually does.
Now, they didn't play nothingbut like a couple, couple
seconds, like 30 seconds, but hedid something that he doesn't
(12:44):
usually do.
I think he went about 8-9 deep.
Speaker 3 (12:48):
He had to, though he had the poor Cam, he had the
poor Deuce.
Yep, I mean, you got to godeeper than your 7-8.
You got to go 9-10.
Speaker 1 (13:01):
Do you think Tom is going to do that for the rest of
the season?
I feel like with the teamyou're facing, that's not a team
you can only go 6-7 deep, withthey going to run you to death
and they going to go about 10.
Speaker 3 (13:13):
The Pacers are going 11 and we going 9.
We going to have to go to our11.
I mean, our 11 is precious,achua that's the thing.
Speaker 2 (13:28):
Tim act like he got bums on his bench.
Speaker 3 (13:30):
That's the thing.
He always acted like that.
Speaker 2 (13:34):
But Precious ain't no bum.
Speaker 1 (13:36):
No, and Cam ain't no bum.
He came in and did a littlesomething too, Like why wasn't
he playing more in the playoffs?
Like come on now.
Speaker 2 (13:45):
Y'all got dudes that can give you 10 minutes a game
and it's not going to mess it up.
But, tibbs, don't do that.
But you're going to have to dothat, especially with Hank.
Speaker 3 (13:58):
When y'all pull y'all starters, we pull our starters.
Speaker 2 (14:02):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (14:03):
He's not going to do it, though the Pacers
technically went we pull a lotof starters.
Speaker 1 (14:05):
Yeah, he's not going to do it, though.
The Pacers technically went 10deep and the Knicks the Knicks
technically went 8 deep, but Idid see Wright.
He was the guy that only wentin for like 36.
Speaker 2 (14:22):
Yeah, I was going to say DeLon Wright only played.
Speaker 1 (14:23):
He only played for like 36.
That was to give guy that onlywent in for like 30 seconds.
Speaker 3 (14:26):
Yeah, I was going to say DeLon Wright only played.
He only played for like 30seconds.
That was to give campaign abreak Because he was giving,
because Brunson was in foultrouble.
Speaker 1 (14:37):
I think Tom has to go a little bit deeper on his
bench to compete with the Pacersthe way Tom likes to coach.
This is the worst team to play,because they're going to run
you to death and they're goingto test your conditioning and
they are very well conditionedup there in Indiana.
Speaker 2 (14:53):
Yeah, that's what we do.
That's what we, like I said,our attempt is to run you into
the ground, attempt to break youup, because, in fact, like the
Knicks was up, we brought itback down.
We try to break people'sspirits in those two.
We never going to quit.
Then we're going to run you todeath I don't know where you're
(15:14):
going next but I got to get myshit off.
Go ahead, I got to get my shitoff.
Can I give you a minute Firstoff.
Now it's turning.
You're going to have to playbetter.
Mitchell Robinson is bodyingeverybody in the play.
Give Mitchell Robinson hiscredit.
He playing defense, he going onthe switches, and that hurt
guarding the guards.
(15:34):
He doing a good job at it, aswhere normally that's Mal Cernan
.
You're going to have to playBell.
That's the thing number one.
If Mitchell Robinson is gettingall these offensive rebounds,
god damn it, stop his ass.
At least attempt shit.
Like I've been saying quick,miles Turner, he's gonna play
(15:55):
better.
As much as I praise MilesTurner, everybody know I'm a big
fan of Miles Turner becauseeverybody hated on him because
they wanted to keep Sabonis.
But I was like well, you gottakeep Miles because he blocked
shots and he knocked down threeSabonis.
Don't do that.
Miles helps you space the floor.
Miles, do what you're supposedto do and stop getting played
off the court.
Speaker 1 (16:16):
Yeah, he did.
Miles did start off the gamevery, very hot, you know.
Got to give him credit for that.
Speaker 2 (16:20):
And then he got to the fourth quarter.
Speaker 3 (16:26):
He heard her missing layups and shit.
That's the thing He'll get tothe back.
He got to the second quarter.
What you talking about, cat,was giving to him.
Speaker 2 (16:30):
Then Mal's a seven foot and then he'll get in the
paint and he start.
No, he got a smaller person onhim and he start rushing.
Don't rush, take your time.
Take your time, dog.
Make them come double and theypass the ball out.
Speaker 3 (16:46):
You, let McKill lock you up, bumper you up.
Speaker 2 (16:50):
Bruh, he let Josh Horst 6'4", 6'5", 6'6", whatever
he is, you make him lock you upbecause you rushing.
It ain't that Josh Horst doingthat, but you just rushing
through missing wide open layups.
I can't even get over Ob ObiToppin for missing that dunk.
That was a crazy dunk.
He did make up for it.
He made up for it, so you can'treally say nothing to him.
Being a shepherd you talkedabout playing a team.
(17:13):
Being a shepherd playingtowards the end of the fourth
quarter, jalen Brunson's justlike alright, out of all the
dudes y'all got over there thatcan play defense, this is the
one y'all pick.
Speaker 1 (17:23):
Nobody can guard Jalen Brunson.
It's true, nobody.
Speaker 2 (17:27):
It's true, he's a foul.
You know what DQ, what Bowlineand column foul merchant?
Does he just be getting fouls?
It's just whatever A merchant,A merchant.
Speaker 1 (17:40):
He might be a peddler , but he ain't no merchant.
That would be great to talkabout.
But they could not keep JalenBrunson out of the lane Anytime.
He wanted to go to the lane.
He was getting to the lane.
Speaker 2 (17:48):
Jalen Brunson looking at Ben Sherpa like all right
bro come on this is really whaty'all doing now.
All right, Brunson's food, thisis lunch all day.
Back up down Early time.
Back up down Early time, Pick arow.
And then looked at him like nah, bro, you ain't got it.
Hey, bro, you ain't got it.
I like Ben Sherford.
Ben Sherford is cool to come inand be like you said that tip
(18:09):
man off the bench.
But in the fourth quarter andyou playing that dude, Mr Clutch
himself, you playing that dude.
Nah, you're going to have to dobetter.
I would prefer Neesmith be onhim, but that's the thing.
That means you putting Nemhard,which is like 6'3", on Bridges,
(18:29):
which is like 6'8".
Yeah, they had Halliburtonguarding them at one time.
Yeah, that's my last thing,Halliburton, at one point.
Your ass is going to have toplay defense At some point in
the fourth quarter when they gofor that pick and roll.
You're taller than Brunson.
Look, just put your armsstraight in the air.
So just put your arms in theair and jump.
(18:49):
Don't try to go for the ball,Don't reach over, Don't do that,
Just go like this.
Speaker 1 (18:56):
The Pacers had two back-to-back possessions where
they fouled a three-pointshooter Just awful.
Fouls too, yeah, that's thething.
That's the thing, just awfulfouls too.
Speaker 2 (19:03):
Yeah, that's the thing, that's the thing to
ignore there.
Speaker 1 (19:06):
But I mean, we won the game.
They won the game, but thePacers did win the game.
Congratulations to the Pacersfor winning game one.
Game two is on Friday, Still inthe garden.
I'm just going to go ahead andask you guys right now who y'all
think going to pull it out ingame two.
Hey, Quentin.
Speaker 3 (19:25):
Realistically, I don't see us losing in the guard
.
No more.
The refs know they job.
They know what to do from nowon.
Speaker 1 (19:32):
The refs know they job.
Speaker 3 (19:35):
Look, we cheated in New York.
I ain't gonna hold you.
We cheated in New York.
At least this season we havebeen.
Speaker 2 (19:43):
No, y'all haven't bro , Y'all really haven't bro,
y'all winning games in New York,y'all ain't getting cheated at
these games, stop it.
Speaker 3 (19:53):
No, I'm saying we do cheat in New York.
We cheat all the time, man.
Speaker 2 (19:55):
Oh, okay, yeah, yeah, yeah, man, you admit the mixed
team.
That's what I said.
Speaker 3 (19:58):
No, I'm saying in New York this season, I'm not
saying the previous season, thisseason, for sure, though, we be
cheating like a motherfucker.
Speaker 2 (20:07):
Jalen Brunson be getting all these type of foul
calls.
Ain't nobody touching bro Bruhshit.
Speaker 3 (20:12):
Nah, bro, he be getting touched bro.
Speaker 2 (20:14):
Clay, bro.
He tripped and they called afoul.
Nah, bro, you know what I'mtalking about too.
Bruh tripped on his own feetand they called a fail.
Like, all right, this is whatwe doing, we, just we.
Okay, that's what we doing.
Him and SGA Boy, they begetting some fails that don't
nobody be around, even his, he'splaying his cousin.
Yesterday Even his cousin waslike come on, he didn't do, I
(20:37):
didn't touch him.
Game two I mean, let's be real,we got one on the road.
New Game two I mean, let's bereal, we got one on the road.
New York's a very hostile place.
I don't know if you're going toget two in a row.
I'm just saying.
Speaker 1 (20:55):
But yeah, I also have the Knicks winning game two.
I have the Knicks winning gametwo, but I have this series
going to seven.
I want to say the pace is bad.
I'm going to just hold off onmy final thought.
I'm going to wait until game.
I really want to wait untilgame seven and see how it feels,
but I just want to game sevenfor one, two.
I think it's going to go togame seven.
Speaker 2 (21:19):
Let's go ahead.
Hold on what you mean?
You want to wait until gameseven.
Speaker 1 (21:23):
What I want to get to the bottom and see how I feel.
Speaker 2 (21:26):
Four minutes left to pick a winner.
Every way you do it, bro, picka winner.
Speaker 1 (21:31):
I said Pacers.
That's what my gut is tellingme.
But hey, I have the right tochange my answer when game seven
comes.
Go ahead.
Speaker 2 (21:42):
He's going to wait until game seven with three
seconds left.
Speaker 3 (21:43):
Something about, yeah man, I'm going with the Pacers.
Yeah, I knew the Pacers wasgoing to do it the whole time, I
don't know who's going to win.
Speaker 1 (21:51):
I think the Pacers is going to win.
I'm just not confident.
Speaker 3 (21:54):
Watching what I watch , I would think the Knicks
should win.
But hell, I mean the Pacers.
Look, they must have got aleprechaun up there or something
, I don't know.
Speaker 1 (22:06):
They look, they must have got a leprechaun up there
or something, I don't know.
They got something, they gotsomething, but let's go ahead
and stop here.
I think they're lucky.
Speaker 2 (22:09):
A lot of the faces is lucky nowadays.
Speaker 3 (22:12):
They keep doing the same and it's the same
schematics every time Y'all down15.
Y'all hit a bunch of threes.
Halliburton, get the ball.
Boom.
It happened every time.
That's just the game plan, butthat's our fault that these
teams can't close.
Speaker 2 (22:31):
They can't close the game.
That's our fault that multipleteams can't close the game.
Look like you said it's beenthe game plan.
We've been doing it formultiple series.
Ain't nobody else stopped tostop it.
That's all I'm saying.
Speaker 3 (22:47):
They be trying hell and somehow you end up with Mr
Thompson on Halliburton and he'shitting the choke symbol,
thinking he closed the game.
I know, nigga, your foot was onthe line.
You're doing too much I didn'tlike it.
Speaker 2 (23:02):
I liked it, but I didn't at the same time.
Speaker 3 (23:04):
I did like it because you know you talking your shit,
but your foot was on the line,like he was like oh shit, let me
run back out here.
Shit, it's make or break.
Speaker 1 (23:14):
When I seen that the game was going overtime, I was
like Tyrese, you got to win, youhave to win.
Speaker 3 (23:19):
Yeah, you got to win at that point you gotta win, but
they won.
Speaker 1 (23:23):
It's gonna be an iconic moment for years to come.
He's gonna be up there withReggie Miller.
Anytime they post ReggieMiller's choke celebration
picture, they gonna post hisright next to him.
Speaker 3 (23:35):
So can we have a conversation, though, like a
small one?
What's up, don't say nothingcrazy.
I'm not gonna say nothing crazy.
Speaker 2 (23:44):
I'm gonna get on this party go.
Speaker 3 (23:45):
They be saying look, they be talking about how Jason
Tatum be doing all this, allthis damn you know dick riding
and whatnot, trying to be youknow somebody that he ain't.
What about Halliburton?
He ain't he being who he is.
Is he being who he is?
It's not like he wanna just beReggie Miller at this point.
Speaker 1 (24:06):
That's the first time he's really done something
similar to somebody he's wearingthe Reggie Miller shirts doing
everything I mean.
I understand you playing forthe franchise.
I think that's just payinghomage to the best player in the
franchise.
Speaker 3 (24:17):
He's paying homage, okay, or is it super glazing?
Speaker 2 (24:24):
I mean, hold on, I don't think he's glazing, I
think he like you know, reggie,calling the game.
Speaker 3 (24:32):
I mean this for you big bruh, this for you Big homie
.
Speaker 2 (24:37):
Let's be real.
No, you're right, he knowReggie's over calling the game.
That's why he did the chokeserve.
Yeah, you're right, it'sabsolutely.
But that's who he is, though.
He's a confident dude,especially late in the game.
Speaker 3 (24:52):
where is daddy at man ?
Bring that nigga daddy up,that'll shake the table.
Speaker 2 (24:56):
Bro was on the court.
Hey, bro, sit your ass down,shake the table after that shot
first off, I thought I saw thatI didn't know that was his dad.
Speaker 3 (25:05):
I was like damn that, look like that dude, look like
gilly the kid.
I wasn't sure if that was thedaddy or not.
Speaker 2 (25:11):
If it, was what we bro.
What are we doing?
Sit down somewhere.
You already cautioned us,though.
Speaker 1 (25:19):
That's why he got.
Speaker 3 (25:20):
I will tell you what I did my highlight of the game,
even though we lost Cat, hit thethree over Miles Turner and
then tapped James Johnson in thechest.
Speaker 2 (25:30):
That's some heart you got to give him.
That.
That's some heart.
Speaker 3 (25:33):
I said damn boy.
But they used to play togetherso I was like I respect that,
that's some heart.
I said damn boy.
Speaker 1 (25:36):
But you know they used to play together so I was
like, alright, respect, I mean,that's still.
You know who that is.
That's a few people you don'tfight in the NBA.
Speaker 3 (25:43):
Nah, nah, they played together in Minnesota.
It's all a little, that's justbeing honest.
Speaker 1 (25:47):
I'm not antagonizing.
Speaker 3 (25:49):
He in street clothes, he ain't gonna do nothing.
Nah, he ain't playing.
Speaker 1 (25:53):
Oh, he was playing, I could have sworn he had on a
collar shirt, he playing, hejust ain't playing.
Speaker 2 (25:59):
He just ain't playing .
Yeah, that's the best way todescribe it.
Speaker 1 (26:05):
He playing, he just ain't playing.
But yeah, so game one in thebooks, game two Friday, but
let's switch gears to theWestern Conference finals, which
was boring.
That man is shade he gets.
I'm a Wade fan and I knew Wadegot a crazy whistle, but Shea
(26:27):
gets an insane whistle.
The OKC thing honest to God,guys, I was watching it.
Okc started to run away with it.
I fell asleep on the game.
I ain't even going to lie toy'all, I fell asleep on it.
I woke up and realized, oh, okcwon.
That's what it's looking like.
More so, though, I do want totalk about OKC won 14-8.
I do want to talk about Sheawas officially announced the MVP
(26:51):
.
This was the latest theyannounced the MVP, for some odd
reason, but they did.
Shea won MVP.
Top three was Shea, jokic andGiannis.
Your thoughts on the boringgame, one of the West Coast
Confrontals, and, moreimportantly, your thoughts on
Shea officially being named theMVP of the NBA, being the third
(27:13):
OKC player to do so, withRussell Westbrook and Kevin
Durant Q.
Speaker 2 (27:20):
I mean, let's call it .
We all knew he was the MVP.
For the past couple weeks myson was like who you think will
win the MVP?
It's Shay.
They just ain't announced ityet I already know who's going
to be the MVP.
We knew who it was going to be.
I do want to hear yourperspective, because you said
you think it should be Joker.
I do want to hear yourperspective because you said you
think it should be Joker.
I do want to hear why you saythat I think it should have been
SGA, because not only did heindividually, but look where his
(27:44):
team is.
They had the number one recordin the West by a good couple of
games.
Thoughts on game one.
My biggest takeaway from gameone is it ain Ant ankle.
Okay, because it's the secondtime Ant that came up limping on
that ankle and he had to goback to the locker room.
(28:05):
You see, when he came back fromthe locker room, he wasn't the
same Ant.
He wasn't the same he ain't hadthat bounce on that three, like
he normally do, and then he quitattacking the basket.
If Ant ain't 100%, minnesotacan't win this game.
They can't win this serieswithout Ant being 100%.
I think that's without, I don'tthink that's.
(28:25):
You know that ain't rocketscience.
You know what I'm saying,captain Obvious right there that
I just said that Julius Randleball put up 20 points in the
first half.
Bro took like four shots in thesecond half.
Speaker 1 (28:42):
I don't know what's that.
If I'm hot, I'm coming out likea flamethrower in the second
half too especially once you seeAnne and Gat.
Speaker 2 (28:50):
yeah, once you see Anne and Gat.
If you, julius Randle, like,alright, I'm the second best
player on this team, let me goget the ball, let me go put up
these baskets, let me try tocarry us.
Let me try to carry us home.
Hell, minnesota shot 53s.
Y'all they playing that Bostongame.
Y'all think 15 of them.
Y'all probably should have notshot and drove to the basket in
(29:12):
an attempt to get the foul.
Yeah, I mean hindsight, me in2020, but I'm saying you
shouldn't be shooting fifththrees and y'all knew y'all
wasn't making it.
Now I think I would giveMinnesota Minnesota does have
some hope.
I think they was like one up.
I forgot the stat.
I was listening to BrianWinhart, the hoop collector.
(29:36):
They had a bunch of open threes.
Minnesota did they.
Just, I forgot the stat.
I was listening to BrianWinhart's name the Hoop
Collector.
They had a bunch of open threes.
Minnesota did, they, justweren't making them.
So if they make some of thosethrees, the game might end up
being different, but you wasn'tmaking them.
So I think you should havetaken the basket.
Speaker 1 (29:48):
Yeah, let me just go ahead.
Jokers won the MVP.
I think Jokers should have wonthe MVP.
He averaged a triple-double.
I think he's head and shouldersthe best player in the league.
It is to the point where it'slike you can give it to him
every year.
But you know, the NBA sometimesis a yield-turned league.
They did it with Joel.
(30:09):
Shea is a deserving player.
I just think he's playing in anera where someone head and
shoulders better than him, whichis Joker, in an era where
someone's head and shouldersbetter than him, which is Joker,
but everybody always talksabout well, his team was the
best, which granted they was.
If that's the case, donovanMitchell, from our perspective,
should have got a lot more MVPlove.
(30:30):
Now, he did finish top five,fifth to be exact but if it's
more so, your team's successDonovan Mitchell should have
been getting a lot more lovethan what he did.
That's how I see it, but I'mnot saying Shea shouldn't have
won it.
If I was a voter, I would havevoted for Joker and if you guys
(30:52):
was interested in how the votingwent, shea did receive 71 first
place votes, 29 second placevotes.
Joker received 29 first placevotes and 71 second place votes.
Nobody else received any firstor second place votes.
Giannis received 88 third placevotes, jason Taylor received 11
(31:14):
third place votes and DonovanMitchell received one third
place votes.
Jason Taylor received 11 thirdplace votes and Donovan Mitchell
received one third place vote.
So that's how I lined up.
But, like I said, if it's abouta team success as well, donovan
Mitchell should have been alittle bit higher on the MVP
ladder board.
Dq your thoughts on Sheawinning the MVP and that boring
(31:35):
game one for the WesternConference Finals.
I wanted to DQ your thoughts onShea winning the MVP and that
boring Game one For the WesternConference Finals.
Speaker 3 (31:39):
I wanted to.
I wanted to see the you knowTimberwolves do something
Besides lose.
I have my money on them.
I wanted to see the New YorkMinnesota Matchup.
Y'all swap players.
Woo, woo, woo.
This is the Storyline you knowYo coach used to be they coach
Blah blah, blah up.
You know y'all swap players Woo, woo, woo.
This is the storyline.
You know your coach used to betheir coach Blah blah, blah.
(32:01):
But man OKC, they're going tosmack whoever come in front of
them from here on out.
Speaker 1 (32:10):
They might.
Speaker 3 (32:12):
They got bodies.
Now, like I said, the Knicks ispretty deep.
I thought the Timberwolves waspretty deep.
Okc is deep boy.
What I say is three types ofwomen in this world and OKC is
that deep end boy.
Speaker 1 (32:33):
They definitely on that deep end.
I do want to get you guys,before we get out here, the
thoughts of how you want to putit.
They call him the free throwmerchant, the crazy whistle man
Shay.
He gets to the line and a lotof them fouls is nothing, he's
just.
I don't know how he's doing it.
I don't know what type ofblackmail he has on some of
(32:57):
these refs.
He getting anything he wants,Anytime he looks like he's about
to fall, he gets a whistle.
Is that something you guys area fan of?
Do you think it's egregious?
Because some people have beensaying, like man, it's boring to
watch, because every time youturn on the game he's at the
free throw line shooting freethrows.
I don't want to watch somebodyshoot free throws all game.
Speaker 2 (33:20):
You got to be a friend of him because Jalen do
it all the time too.
Speaker 3 (33:24):
It's totally different, bro, he's not a fine
merchant at all, bro.
He does more scoring than fromanywhere else besides the line.
Shea took two shots and had 15points yesterday.
Speaker 2 (33:40):
Brunson had 14 free throws tonight, bruh.
Speaker 3 (33:43):
Tonight.
Speaker 2 (33:45):
It's every night, bruh.
Speaker 3 (33:47):
I'm saying how many shots he put up 30?
, 40?
, what am?
Speaker 2 (33:51):
I going to do?
Where am I peeing at?
We going right now, every time,every night, how many fouls
Brunson has, how many free throwshots he take.
He does the same thing.
And then we're going to compareit to SGA he does the same
thing, they play the same way.
So I know you a fan though.
Speaker 3 (34:12):
I don't necessarily care for SGA he ain't never been
my band.
He out there, move your bodylike a snake man.
That's how he be getting,because he be contorting out
there big.
Speaker 1 (34:23):
Jalen Brunson took 14 free throws tonight, and Mr
Shea Gildress Alexander, he alsotook 14 free throws.
So you know pretty even.
Speaker 2 (34:41):
They play the same way.
Speaker 3 (34:45):
That's crazy.
Speaker 2 (34:46):
I'm just calling the house.
Speaker 3 (34:47):
I mean I'm saying but Brunson looked like man, he
looked like AI and Chris Paulhad a baby man.
Speaker 2 (34:53):
No, he don't, Don't Stop.
Speaker 1 (34:56):
That is a wild statement.
He is not a floor general likeChris Paul.
Speaker 2 (35:01):
That's my biggest the AI stuff.
I can see it, I don't see you.
Chris Paul, he can get you six,seven, he can get you seven,
but nah, I wouldn't call him afloor general.
Speaker 1 (35:16):
No, he's not a floor general.
I don't know why you came upwith that, but that's from your
perspective, chris Paul.
No, that's from yourperspective, quag.
Speaker 3 (35:23):
It's because Chris Paul and AI had a baby.
You take a game from each one,okay.
Speaker 1 (35:30):
He's not even okay From my perspective.
He's not even close to ChrisPaul, Not even close.
Speaker 2 (35:34):
I feel what you're saying.
You take a little bit and youput it in, they mix them
together and that's what youcome out with.
I feel what you're saying.
I just Okay, if not Chris Paul,then who?
I can see the AI.
I can see the AI.
Speaker 3 (35:52):
I didn't want to say AI and Derrick Rose, because
that's too similar to me.
Speaker 2 (35:57):
Yeah, he just ain't got the athleticism that D Rose
be.
Now obviously he's like I don'twant to say a pro, I'm Derrick
Williams to me.
Yeah, that's why I said DerrickWilliams, because he was
similar to Chris Powell, butjust wasn't as good.
No shame, then again.
Speaker 1 (36:13):
Derrick Williams.
He used his.
Speaker 3 (36:15):
It was very cheap.
Speaker 1 (36:16):
He wasn't tall, but he was a bigger body and was
able to get to the lane.
That's how Jalen Brunson ishe's not tall, but he's a bigger
body, able to slid his waythrough the lane and get to the
lane.
That's.
Speaker 2 (36:26):
Yeah, I see that.
So Derrick Williams and AImixed together and that's what
you come out with A solid player.
But, and you know, throw alittle sprinkle of that little
James Horton hunt for the foul,because you got Taylor Preston,
a little AI, a little DarrenWilliams and a little sprinkle
(36:47):
of that James Horton hunt forthe foul.
Boom, there, you got TaylorPreston.
Speaker 3 (36:50):
Shout out to Sam Preston.
He got him another MVP on hisbelt.
Speaker 1 (36:54):
Yeah, shout out, but he probably needs, he wants him.
Can we keep a championship,though he?
Speaker 2 (37:00):
do but think about the drafts he had.
He drafted James Harden,russell Westbrook, kevin Durant,
jeff Green, serge Ibaka.
Like he done drafted a bunch ofdudes.
Imagine SGA was drafted by theclub when they got traded to
third for Steelers.
Speaker 3 (37:18):
But he got rid of weak-ass, damn Paul George.
He said man, I'll give you PaulGeorge, I'll give you Paul
George for SGA Clevers, I think.
Speaker 2 (37:26):
Clevers, I think, was going to get the better of that
deal.
Speaker 1 (37:27):
Apparently not.
Who ain't getting a good deal?
Philly, you guys got anythingy'all want to get off your chest
Before we get out of here.
You know you got game and I'mtaking Angel Reese all day.
Speaker 3 (37:41):
That's all I gotta say.

Conference.

Speaker 2 (37:49):
