Speaker 2 (00:10):
Do you think professional sports is having an effect on
the amateur sports as far as high school and college?

Speaker 1 (00:18):
With the cryme, man that Jonki is getting out of control? Man,
I seen a little seventh grader flop. I'm like, since
when they threw that, I'm talking about he and the dude.
The only thing he did was kind of like they
went chest to chest and he flopping. I'm like, yo,
look at little James Harden. He was right handed though,

(00:38):
I'm like, man, check this out. This that that's all bad?

Speaker 2 (00:41):
Suret? Cause did you see the kids that got the
fighting with the referee?

Speaker 1 (00:45):
Cause the referee probably till in the april you try.
I ain't travel covery Earth and through that all the time. Yeah,
I don't look, I don't see you know what. And
that's another thing though, Uh, this is why I said
in the previous episode, this is why I always say
I tell my kids to have fun and don't worry

(01:06):
about what the ref call, because why because things like
that happen Because now kids are super sensitive. We w
wasn't that sensitive if the ref man back in the day,
man ref say something called for all right, you know
we can go ahead, but we might be mad. But
what what did our coach tell us? Hey, man, be cool,
chill out. You a good player. That's you know what.

(01:28):
That's a lot of players main downfall, the attitude. That's
the main downfall. Though, like they can't somebody can't bump them.
They feel, oh, man, I need to man, that's a fun. Man,
that's fun. You fuling men, dude, just playing hard defense.
That's how it is. When somebody get a block shot.

(01:49):
The first thing they say, oh that's a file. No,
it's not a file, cause man, you know a hard
file when you got a file.

Speaker 2 (01:56):
Well yeah, I mean, but these days everybody be crying
a lot. Man's even playground ball, like they stopped playing
completely to cry.

Speaker 1 (02:07):
To cry or call it a if you don't like,
somebody calls you for it and if you miss the shot,
keep playing. Is it? That's the best way rock people says,
is that thing and something so like real, I don't
know that's what they do. All that crying. I hate it, you.

Speaker 2 (02:23):
Know, but not even it's bad because the high school
middle school kids doing it. Now, you know they really
going at these reps. A foul call and the parents
be all green with it and he oh. Plus it's
more one on one, especially like in basketball, the whole
team's sitting around while everybody going one on one with

(02:45):
each other.

Speaker 1 (02:46):
I have to say something. I mean, i'd be like, dude,
say I have to tell some dudes that man at
the gym the other day. Man, I mean, we going
back and forth and the thing. This is the thing.
It's not like they were great. I'm running back iron line. Son. Look,
there's people who can play basketball, and there's people who
know basketball. You should be if you know basketball, you

(03:09):
can score, you can score without even scoring. You can set,
meaning you can score your teammates, set your teammaker for
like an easy ass like the easiest pass of simple
pick and roll. Man, I'm setting these dudes screens. They're
going then opposite way. It's a three. It's a full
on one, a full on one. It's a full on

(03:32):
one court were playing full court. It's a full on one.
How does the other person end up with the ball? No?
Point four one? They want to stop and pop a three? Why?

Speaker 2 (03:42):
Because they do y'all get three maund.

Speaker 1 (03:44):
Man, dude, I Q they want to be man, I'd
be like, dude. Then I had to tell them, say, bro,
I ain't running for my help. Y'all look on his face.
I ran down the court for five times just to
see what they want. If they was gonna pass it,
they did not. I'm like, hey, I ain't running for

(04:07):
my help.

Speaker 2 (04:08):
You play.

Speaker 1 (04:09):
I was playing at the why down it? So I'm like,
Yo'm not running for my health, bro. And then after
that I stopped. I stopped running, I stopped playing defense.
I see, let me see what they're gonna do. Then
before you know it, I just went and took the ball.
All right, cool, took the ball. I shot it. And
when I mean to tell you, I was coming out

(04:30):
and just pulling up. I'm like, pass me the ball.
I'm like, I'm a better point guard than all y'all.

Speaker 2 (04:40):
You know.

Speaker 1 (04:40):
I'm just saying, you know, you know how you can
lead the team? Like, look, bro, come to the screen,
you roll you. Yeah, it was all bad. Hey, you
know what's funny.

Speaker 2 (04:48):
I just thought about it. We played in hoo Fest.
It was a lot of people crying about fouls and stuff.

Speaker 1 (04:55):
That's all people do. We wasn't well, I was. We
wasn't dude, I was getting hacked. It didn't feel like
a heck to me because every past when I was
going to the rack, every time I disted it out,
somebody was open. It was up to them whether they
hit the shot or not. Because that's what you want,
the open man. I drive to get people to commit.
I dish it out, you shoot. You know, that's the game.

(05:16):
So I'm like, hey, they like they did miss the shot,
went a file? Oh you're right, because either way they
missed a shot or if I call call the file,
I have to do what go to the free throw line,
shoot a shot fifty to fifty chance, just like with
the shot.

Speaker 2 (05:32):
So yeah, man, you gotta point that. You know what
what watching those who fast vlogs of us playing made
me realize that your boy getting wire?

Speaker 1 (05:47):
Who I'm getting the wire? Say you're getting wire? Yeah?

Speaker 2 (05:51):
I got I had to get back in the gym.

Speaker 1 (05:53):
Man. Hey, man, you went down like a couple of weeks,
like a month before we was gone, So that put
you kind of like in the a little spiral for
a little second. Man. So but he even though though
we was one game, away from winning one game away.

Speaker 2 (06:09):
Now we were three games, it would have.

Speaker 1 (06:11):
Been one because if we because after we lost to
the team from Sacramento, they played again.

Speaker 2 (06:18):
Afterward it was champion. I mean they had to beat
that team to go to the championship. We would have
had to be two.

Speaker 1 (06:25):
No, we only have to be one more team. Because
I stood there and watched, they only had one more
game and that was them.

Speaker 2 (06:31):
That's because they lost, so that automatically won. But if
they were the won, they would have to play the
team again, the team, and they would have to beat us.
Beat that team that they lost to, didn't play again,
that same team and beat them again because they haven't
lost the game. Remember, you gotta lose two they lose.

Speaker 1 (06:48):
I thought, let me see because I know after we
finished playing they played again, they played again.

Speaker 2 (06:56):
So yeah, if they were to beat that team that
we lost to the first time.

Speaker 1 (07:00):
No, no, I mean when we was playing a black team,
if we would have whooped him, we would only had
one more game left. You sure, what's that you have
to beat that tall you know what, the team that
we did lose. Yeah, okay, yeah, you're right.

Speaker 2 (07:15):
Right, yeah, Hey, but we came in third, so they
better be ready. They better be ready, and.

Speaker 1 (07:22):

thing though, son, we still haven't played like that much
together and we still come man for what we do.
