Season 3

The Lakers are out—and Christopher “C-Pain” Davis has to face the music.

In Episode 133, Derrick Thompson and C-Pain dive deep into the aftermath of L.A.'s first-round playoff exit at the hands of the surging Timberwolves. Did Chris stick by his pre-playoff predictions? Is this the end of the LeBron-led Lakers era?

They also explore the rise of Anthony Edwards, who’s turning heads and drawing Michael Jordan comparisons with his fearless playoff performances. Is he the new face of the NBA?

Other hot topics include:

🏀 Warriors vs. Rockets – Can Golden State avoid an upset and stay alive?
🏀 Nuggets vs. Clippers Game 7 – Will Jokic cement his “best player” status?
🏀 Celtics, Knicks & the East – Who's the real threat to Boston?
🏈 Shedeur Sanders’ NFL Draft Slide – Why did he fall to Round 5, and what does it mean?
🏈 QB drama in Cleveland – Could we see changes sooner than expected?

Whether you're a Lakers fan mourning the loss, an Ant Edwards believer, or an NFL Draft junkie, this episode brings the 🔥.

Hey, chris, christopher C Payne Davis.

00:01:09.730 --> 00:01:16.239
Man, we tried to tell you about the Lakers.

00:01:16.239 --> 00:01:18.879
We tried to tell you, we tried to save you from yourself.

00:01:18.879 --> 00:01:20.043
You know what.

00:01:20.043 --> 00:01:25.066
We're about to start the show, but before we do that, we've got a little footage that we need to roll back.

00:01:25.066 --> 00:01:26.671
Go to the tape.

00:01:26.819 --> 00:01:29.768
Shout out Rob Palenka for the greatest highway robbery I've ever seen.

00:01:29.768 --> 00:01:31.191
That was amazing.

00:01:31.319 --> 00:01:35.031
Are you concerned that there's something deeper going on?

00:01:35.031 --> 00:01:38.030
I mean for the Mavs to just let Luka go like that.

00:01:38.561 --> 00:01:44.703
I'm just very excited to see what the rest of the season and what the future holds for the Lakers, because honestly, I don't still think we're a championship team.

00:01:44.703 --> 00:01:48.429
I don't think automatically we're going to the finals, diego what's my life lesson?

00:01:48.849 --> 00:01:50.411
Do you know my life lesson?

00:01:50.411 --> 00:01:51.972
I don't think I know.

00:01:51.972 --> 00:01:53.435
You don't know which one I'm talking about?

00:01:53.435 --> 00:02:05.992
All right, the life lesson is when something seems too good to be true it normally is hey man, we're going to see, we're going to see.

00:02:06.012 --> 00:02:06.596
We're going to see.

00:02:06.615 --> 00:02:13.945
We're going to see we know that, round by round, you are going to continue to pick the Lakers when it comes down to it.

00:02:13.945 --> 00:02:24.502
So why don't you, once and for all, in front of our live audience here at Kings in Raleigh, north Carolina, why don't you be a man and say the Lakers are going to win the NBA championship this year?

00:02:24.502 --> 00:02:25.984
Say it with your chest.

00:02:26.865 --> 00:02:32.730
I am fully willing to say the Lakers are not going to win that NBA championship.

00:02:32.730 --> 00:02:33.572
I don't believe it.

00:02:33.572 --> 00:02:34.733
I don't believe it.

00:02:34.733 --> 00:02:37.475
Okay, do you see how OKC plays?

00:02:37.475 --> 00:02:40.502
Yeah, that's all I'm saying.

00:02:40.502 --> 00:02:45.354
As much as a big fan of the team, I am very realistic.

00:02:45.354 --> 00:02:53.766
Do we have the guys to keep up with a team that talented when we are very top-heavy with three very solid, great players, right, but again very top-heavy?

00:02:53.766 --> 00:02:55.507
Sometimes our bench doesn't decide to show up.

00:02:55.960 --> 00:02:58.128
Diego, who is Chris going to pick?

00:02:58.128 --> 00:03:00.074
I'm going to pick LeBron and the Lakers.

00:03:00.074 --> 00:03:03.322
Thank you, you can't help yourself I can't, you can't help it.

00:03:03.342 --> 00:03:03.562
I Thank you.

00:03:03.562 --> 00:03:04.103
You can't help yourself.

00:03:04.103 --> 00:03:06.384
I can't help it how we're moving after this season.

00:03:06.384 --> 00:03:17.634
After seeing Luca's 45-point performance versus the Dallas Mavericks which again you know out of shape, but he put 45 on you I just want to say hey, that's all I'm going to say about that.

00:03:17.634 --> 00:03:26.966
You got to make him regret it, you got to make him remember, you got to make Dallas realize that you made one of the greatest mistakes in NBA history.

00:03:26.985 --> 00:03:39.724
So well, it's mighty funny, you know, with the Lakers and Luka Luka comes out and looks like he's 87 years old, okay, and all of a sudden the Lakers aren't going anywhere, and then he has one good game against.

00:03:39.724 --> 00:03:41.687
He has one good game against.

00:03:41.687 --> 00:03:43.651
The Brooklyn Nets are like some bad team.

00:03:43.651 --> 00:03:48.389
Yeah some awful team and then all of a sudden, oh Luka, oh Luka is doing it.

00:03:48.389 --> 00:03:51.213
It is the craziest thing to see.

00:03:51.234 --> 00:03:52.280
No one talks about the bad game.

00:03:53.043 --> 00:03:54.989
The up and down nature of this team.

00:03:56.342 --> 00:03:57.387
Hey, clip this one.

00:03:57.387 --> 00:03:59.086
This needs to be the clip that you should show.

00:03:59.086 --> 00:04:00.949
It's getting good to him, Diego.

00:04:03.289 --> 00:04:04.335
It's getting good to him.

00:04:06.441 --> 00:04:07.007
It's getting good to him.

00:04:07.007 --> 00:04:08.180
He's getting good to him, chris, who you got.

00:04:08.180 --> 00:04:09.362
So I know.

00:04:09.362 --> 00:04:17.084
This whole season I've been hedging my bets, but after seeing Luka in that Dallas game, I'm sorry.

00:04:17.084 --> 00:04:19.185
So Luka is going to turn up.

00:04:19.185 --> 00:04:24.810
Could potentially be finals MVP when we beat the Celtics in seven games.

00:04:24.810 --> 00:04:27.346
That's my final prediction.

00:04:27.346 --> 00:04:29.007
At least you're not hiding me.

00:04:29.007 --> 00:04:30.466
I'm not hiding that at all.

00:04:32.906 --> 00:04:37.685
We called this weeks ago a month ago we told you what you were going to do Every week.

00:04:37.685 --> 00:04:38.994
I was like now I'm nervous.

00:04:38.994 --> 00:04:42.146
Now, oh yeah, we presented all-time high.

00:04:42.581 --> 00:04:47.908
Now, chris, you do realize that the Lakers are not going to play the Brooklyn Nets in the playoffs.

00:04:47.908 --> 00:04:48.389
I don't know.

00:04:48.730 --> 00:04:49.913
Okay, I'm not scared.

00:04:49.913 --> 00:04:53.024
I'm not scared, I'm not backing down them.

00:04:53.024 --> 00:04:53.766
Tears moved me.

00:04:53.766 --> 00:04:56.201
I don't know if they moved anybody else, but they moved me.

00:04:56.201 --> 00:05:15.240
Hey y'all, how's everybody?

00:05:15.240 --> 00:05:28.946
Oh man, all right, uh, yeah, yeah, yeah, wow, a lot of things were said, you know.

00:05:28.946 --> 00:05:38.461
Let's just mention there were a couple series I picked correctly Celtic series, the Cavs series, the Knicks series as well, much more still.

00:05:38.461 --> 00:05:41.685
Wrapping up the Western Conference, I picked the Thunder.

00:05:41.685 --> 00:05:43.812
You know, you know picked every pretty much.

00:05:43.812 --> 00:05:46.422
You know can't win them all, can't win them all.

00:05:46.422 --> 00:05:48.824
But yeah, that's a very, very.

00:05:48.824 --> 00:05:53.187
I mean five and three ain't too bad Actually.

00:05:53.187 --> 00:05:54.608
No, we still got two series of the tournament.

00:05:54.608 --> 00:05:56.670
I might be seven and one actually.

00:05:56.870 --> 00:05:57.569
So we gonna see.

00:05:57.569 --> 00:06:00.012

What's going on, my man?

00:06:24.290 --> 00:06:46.744
I mean, as you can tell after re-watching all of those clips of me, you know, oh man, I really doubled down like I'll really I'll find it hilarious how much I stood on business and I was like, oh yeah, you know, we're gonna be fine, we're gonna be fine with our center, and then we actually made rudy gobert look like will chamberlain in game five.

00:06:46.744 --> 00:06:54.420
So I was like I don't know, I think that yeah, yeah very, very rough watch.

00:06:54.420 --> 00:06:55.944
You know, I, I was.

00:06:55.944 --> 00:06:57.127
I said lakers in six.

00:06:57.127 --> 00:06:58.733
Unfortunately that didn't happen.

00:06:59.295 --> 00:07:10.125

00:07:45.699 --> 00:07:45.939
Let me put.

00:07:45.939 --> 00:07:46.762
Oh, oh, hold on y'all excuse me.

00:07:46.781 --> 00:07:47.843
Excuse me, that's like minnesota.

Oh yeah, let me put.

00:07:48.524 --> 00:07:54.663
Put a hoodie on man, get, get straight here cold like yeah hold on, man, let me get me getting this a little chilly.

00:07:54.663 --> 00:07:58.209
Bear with me here, just ah.

00:07:58.209 --> 00:07:59.172
Okay, there we go.

00:07:59.172 --> 00:08:00.213
Yeah, let's, let.

00:08:00.213 --> 00:08:02.605
Let's hit the first image here on the screen.

00:08:02.605 --> 00:08:12.588
Let's hit our lakers gone fishing here, all right, so lakers have gone fishing and uh I think uh, c pain has joined them.

00:08:13.209 --> 00:08:14.572
So, uh, yeah, man.

00:08:14.572 --> 00:08:15.353
So man, let's.

00:08:15.353 --> 00:08:25.055
Let's just talk a little bit about luca and, uh, that fool's gold man yeah, um, very much fools purple and gold this playoffs.

00:08:26.362 --> 00:08:29.461
Yeah, luka just was inconsistent Again.

00:08:29.461 --> 00:08:37.674
I did mention, though, that my fear was that LeBron, at 40, could not be the best player on this team.

00:08:37.674 --> 00:08:38.844
We needed Luka to step up.

00:08:38.844 --> 00:08:42.749
Yes, austin Reeves also had a very bad series.

00:08:42.749 --> 00:08:45.926
We didn't play our center.

00:08:46.006 --> 00:08:53.701
We like game four, we decided to run our five starters into the ground without substituting, which jj reddick got really upset about.

00:08:53.701 --> 00:08:58.692
But again, hey, you're a young coach, bro, listen, this is your first rodeo, you feel me.

00:08:58.692 --> 00:09:02.787
Yeah, and hopefully you know you can learn and we can get back to something.

00:09:02.787 --> 00:09:03.668
I have no idea.

00:09:03.668 --> 00:09:10.013
Honestly, it wasn't a feeling of dejection because, honestly, after game four, I was like okay.

00:09:10.013 --> 00:09:19.548
After like game three, where I was like okay, like we get, it seemed like we gave them our best shot, and then game four was like okay, it felt like we gave multiple knockout punches and the wolves just kept swinging.

00:09:19.548 --> 00:09:22.761
Yeah, yeah, that that hurt a little.

00:09:22.761 --> 00:09:28.779
So, yeah, uh, we're, we're going home and picking up is so crazy right now.

00:09:28.779 --> 00:09:35.936
But anyway, I think that, again with my last name, is lakers.

00:09:35.936 --> 00:09:39.144
I believe I don't want us to start turning into cowboys fans.

00:09:39.144 --> 00:09:40.589
You feel me, that was I.

00:09:40.589 --> 00:09:45.648
I feel like you know we're starting to become that where it's like oh every year, it's our year.

00:09:46.041 --> 00:09:46.764
We're going to be.

00:09:46.764 --> 00:09:49.609
And again, you all know how I feel about Cowboys fans.

00:09:49.609 --> 00:09:54.432
So seeing my team become that team of just like, oh, every year we're going to win, Every year we're going to win.

00:09:54.432 --> 00:09:58.250
I should have been more realistic and hedge my bets like how I did at the King show.

00:09:58.250 --> 00:09:59.841
I drank the Kool-Aid man.

00:09:59.841 --> 00:10:00.321
I'm sorry.

00:10:00.341 --> 00:10:01.522
That Sorry, that was my bad.

00:10:01.522 --> 00:10:03.283
You couldn't help yourself.

00:10:03.283 --> 00:10:04.625
You couldn't help yourself, man.

00:10:04.625 --> 00:10:08.327
We know, like my wife, we know you better than you know yourself.

00:10:08.347 --> 00:10:12.912
Yeah, y'all do, because that was bad All right.

00:10:13.052 --> 00:10:15.833
Well, we're going to lay off you a little bit now.

00:10:15.833 --> 00:10:19.216
So we gave you a hard time, but it happens, it happens.

00:10:19.216 --> 00:10:25.071
It doesn't happen to me, but it happens, it happens to most of us out there.

00:10:25.071 --> 00:10:26.903
All right, what doesn't happen to me?

00:10:26.903 --> 00:10:29.048
But it happens, it happens to most of us out there.

00:10:29.048 --> 00:10:31.613
So, with LeBron James, you got LeBron James.

00:10:31.613 --> 00:10:38.947
So he is I guess he is in a player option year here so he can opt in into his 50 plus million.

00:10:38.947 --> 00:10:44.149
So, with LeBron making max money again, is it worth it?

00:10:44.149 --> 00:10:47.346
Yes, he's box office One of the top players in the league.

00:10:47.346 --> 00:10:48.923
Yes, of course, we all understand that.

00:10:48.923 --> 00:10:55.131
However, can LeBron James continue to make max money and win a championship?

00:10:55.738 --> 00:11:06.866
I don't think he can, and I don't know what point he's at in his career where he's like, okay, I'm stuck, I'm happy with my four, let me just wind it down, get as much money as I can make and just have my farewell tour.

00:11:06.866 --> 00:11:10.446
Or if he's like, no, we really have a good team and we can run it back now.

00:11:10.446 --> 00:11:29.311
My other thing is we need, if we have, a player like Luka Doncic the one thing I did notice with the Dallas Mavericks even though Nico Harrison did say defense wins championships they did have very solid defenders around him, like a pj washington, and it's just, we need dogs like that around him.

00:11:29.311 --> 00:11:33.503
So it's not just luca be the one who's constantly getting hunted.

00:11:33.503 --> 00:11:33.943
Yeah.

00:11:34.065 --> 00:11:47.889
So again and again, even during the playoffs versus the wolves, especially in game four, you see lebron coming up with all these defensive stops and I'm like, okay, this is like great, you're showing that while you're an all time green at 40, but nobody else is making a defensive stop.

00:11:47.889 --> 00:11:52.208
Everybody is late rotating, somebody's not making the right, the right play, and it's just.

00:11:52.208 --> 00:11:58.587
I think that in order to get the pieces that we need to compete for championship, he's going to have to take less money.

00:11:58.587 --> 00:12:07.888
I think that I don't even know if trades or trades can fix it, or we help a free agent get blinded by the bright lights of Los Angeles.

00:12:07.888 --> 00:12:09.489
It's like come here, you'll be famous.

00:12:09.489 --> 00:12:13.153
You'll have to deal with the Internet sometimes hating you if you don't play.

00:12:13.153 --> 00:12:16.895
Well, like that's just Play for a lower salary.

00:12:16.936 --> 00:12:18.057
Yeah, it's going to be tough.

00:12:18.057 --> 00:12:19.941
It's going to be tough.

00:12:19.941 --> 00:12:22.243
I think he's going to have to Tim Duncan it and take less.

00:12:22.243 --> 00:12:31.672
And really, you know they sound crazy and people will go nuts on this they see this clip but he's really going to have to be the third option, you know.

00:12:31.672 --> 00:12:32.673
But he can't be.

00:12:32.673 --> 00:12:40.519
You know, in this, in this, you know apron structure and how the salary cap is right now, you can only pay two people max money.

00:12:40.519 --> 00:12:42.285
Yeah, and it does.

00:12:42.285 --> 00:12:47.371
He just doesn't have the game right now to be one of those two people to make Max Money.

00:12:47.371 --> 00:12:49.889
Again, he's not a knockdown drag-out shooter.

00:12:49.889 --> 00:12:58.530
Okay, his main skill is okay leadership, which is okay, phenomenal, and he's still one of the best passers, if not the best passer, in the league.

00:12:58.530 --> 00:13:03.630
Yeah, but okay, you can't make Max Money with that skill set.

00:13:03.630 --> 00:13:04.472
He's slowing down.

00:13:04.472 --> 00:13:10.109
You could see that in this series because and yeah, it was definitely.

00:13:10.129 --> 00:13:25.917
My thing is even still, like when you see, like the heroics of the run, the scary thing about it was, oh, we're still not gonna win this game, like even still, even if after like it was like the back-to-back threes again for again I was like, oh, we have a chance, right, it was like this still was like the back-to-back threes in Game 4, again I was like, oh, we have a chance, right.

00:13:25.917 --> 00:13:27.946
I was like this still feels like the games on the bounce.

00:13:27.946 --> 00:13:33.251
Typically, like five or six years ago, you would think, oh man, we're about to wrap this game up.

00:13:33.660 --> 00:13:34.705
We're about to win this series.

00:13:34.705 --> 00:13:39.397
Yes, the Timberwolves played awful in that Game 5.

00:13:39.397 --> 00:13:42.120
They shot one of the worst percentages.

00:13:42.200 --> 00:13:43.524
Seven of 47.

00:13:43.543 --> 00:13:45.929
They shot one of the worst percentages Seven of 47.

00:13:45.929 --> 00:13:47.453
Yes, and we still like, do you?

00:13:47.453 --> 00:13:48.076
Yeah, ant-man was what?

00:13:48.076 --> 00:13:48.736
0 for 11?

00:13:48.736 --> 00:13:49.339
0 for 11.

00:13:49.339 --> 00:13:49.679
From three.

00:13:49.960 --> 00:13:51.864
And he was talking and again listen.

00:13:51.864 --> 00:13:55.130
Because of that 43 and 11 game he could talk as much crap as he wants.

00:13:55.211 --> 00:13:56.293
Oh, yeah, All right listen.

00:13:56.640 --> 00:13:59.289
I will never say I do think it's crazy that you shot 0 for 11.

00:13:59.289 --> 00:14:15.774
But again you beat us in five because and I'll meet- everybody and they might talk about lakers in five because of a yes, yes, a certain time and shout out yes, I'll have to shout out to yeah, yeah, salute, um.

00:14:15.774 --> 00:14:17.778
But I think that, uh, when it comes to that, it was just yeah, it was.

00:14:17.778 --> 00:14:32.698
It was a rough series and, as lakers fan, it showed the glaring need for center, because rudy gobert should not look like and again when shag is on the halftime show praising rudy gobert there is a serious, that's right, I mean

00:14:32.818 --> 00:14:34.302
serious problem that we have.

00:14:34.322 --> 00:14:35.605
He was at the center position.

00:14:35.645 --> 00:14:38.562
Yeah, that's yeah oh, turn it on the halftime show.

00:14:38.562 --> 00:14:39.326
So you're like shag, be like.

00:14:39.326 --> 00:14:40.913
Oh, rudy gobert's company, that was.

00:14:40.913 --> 00:14:43.263
Uh, that was a death blow, that that hurt me.

00:14:43.302 --> 00:14:49.095
They have to give the keys to Luka and they have to build this team the way that Dallas was building the team around Luka last year.

00:14:49.095 --> 00:14:51.447
So Luka has to be ball dominant.

00:14:51.447 --> 00:15:04.090
They've got to build a defensive team around him, build some sharp shooters around him where he can dribble the air out of the ball and either shoot a step back shot or kick it out to somebody and have some.

00:15:04.090 --> 00:15:06.575
You know defenders are lobbing up to you know the dunker.

00:15:06.575 --> 00:15:08.768
So that's definitely what they're going to have to do.

00:15:08.768 --> 00:15:17.200
But let's go ahead and transition here to Ant-Man All right and his quest to take down all of the legends.

00:15:17.399 --> 00:15:27.469
So we know that he took down KD last year, swept him All right, and that was something the Suns haven't been the same since, not at all.

00:15:27.469 --> 00:15:31.528
And then he went and took down the champs.

00:15:31.528 --> 00:15:33.846
At the time the Nuggets beat them in seven.

00:15:33.846 --> 00:15:35.100
That was an amazing comeback.

00:15:35.100 --> 00:15:55.467
And then they folded to the Mavericks and I was very disappointed in how he let Luka come in his house and again, not so much beat them, but the way he was able to talk to the fans, the way he was able to talk to Gobert, and there was never any type of pushback, and so I was very, very disappointed in that.

00:15:55.467 --> 00:16:09.626
But I was proud of Ant and the way he stepped up, made big shots, throwing the signs to Luka after he made them, and you could tell early on that he felt some type of way about how that happened and he wasn't going to let that happen this year.

00:16:09.626 --> 00:16:11.105
So big props to Ant.

00:16:11.105 --> 00:16:12.645
How do you feel about Ant man?

00:16:13.280 --> 00:16:15.008
I think that he has.

00:16:15.008 --> 00:16:20.566
He's now the Kingslayer, as Adidas, you know, rated him in a very great promotional image for him.

00:16:20.566 --> 00:16:23.533
I think that, yeah, this is.

00:16:23.533 --> 00:16:39.542
It's scary the fact that he's mind you, I didn't acknowledge the fact that he's actually my age because I've seen him, like, play basketball for all these years, but I'm like, wait, he's 23, I'm 23, okay, this is, and you're out here, you know, not literally taking out legends in the game.

00:16:39.682 --> 00:16:55.287
I mean what he did in this series and again being the best player, and again this game four was the was the moment I was like, okay, this guy is really the best, best shooting guard, possibly best, definitely top 10 player in the league because 43 and 11.

00:16:55.287 --> 00:16:57.591
You're making all the key defensive plays.

00:16:57.591 --> 00:16:58.863
You're making all the key passes.

00:16:58.863 --> 00:17:00.466
You're the big shots.

00:17:00.466 --> 00:17:04.426
Every single moment that the game can switch, you're making the big play.

00:17:04.426 --> 00:17:14.009
I was, I was in awe because I was like I don't know if I've seen a young player come in and just be like, okay, let me get fully, start getting rid of the old guard.

00:17:14.191 --> 00:17:23.450
I'm here now and it's yeah, and even still, like you remember the clip going viral a couple months ago about like him talking to obama, him saying that he's the truth, and everybody was like, oh, why is it so confident?

00:17:23.450 --> 00:17:24.776
The older generation was like, oh, why is he so confident?

00:17:24.776 --> 00:17:26.763
The older generation's kind of like, ah, why is he so confident?

00:17:26.763 --> 00:17:29.163
I'm like I mean, look at the resume.

00:17:29.163 --> 00:17:30.382
He's already like stacking up.

00:17:30.402 --> 00:17:48.803
You feel me and I think that, again, most people who are like fans of the league love Ant because of the flamboyance, because of the charisma that he has and again it that he has, and, again, it helps the fact that he's transitioned from mostly dunking and doing all that to being a very, very good three-point shooter.

00:17:48.803 --> 00:17:53.545
My goodness, some of the threes he was hitting in those series was demoralizing.

00:17:53.545 --> 00:17:58.904
I think that the face of the league conversation is very real for him.

00:17:58.904 --> 00:18:00.723
I hope that he becomes that.

00:18:00.723 --> 00:18:12.986
But I did want to ask you because I remember us having a conversation about this on the way home from one of the shows, but I asked you does it restore that mj feeling for you absolutely after this series especially?

00:18:13.246 --> 00:18:14.388
absolutely, absolutely.

00:18:14.388 --> 00:18:25.032
I've never felt that anybody brought the magic that michael jordan brought to the league until the playoffs, those first few rounds last year.

00:18:25.032 --> 00:18:27.948
I never had that feeling, even with Kobe.

00:18:27.948 --> 00:18:28.891
Rest in peace.

00:18:28.891 --> 00:18:35.272
As phenomenal as Kobe was, I never had that feeling that I had those first two series.

00:18:35.272 --> 00:18:49.465
And I remember even talking to other people that were like my peers and they were all getting excited like, oh man, because just the way he attacked his opponent, the way he attacked the basket, the charisma, just everything.

00:18:50.106 --> 00:18:55.862
He embodies a lot of what I used to see with Jordan.

00:18:55.862 --> 00:18:57.986
So, yeah, he continues on this path.

00:18:57.986 --> 00:19:04.365
He will absolutely be the face and, yeah, can win many titles.

00:19:04.365 --> 00:19:10.415
And what I also love that they're doing in minnesota is they're not doing what so many other teams are doing, whereas they're taking.

00:19:10.415 --> 00:19:13.925
Just because you're the best player on the team, they're making you the point guard.

00:19:13.925 --> 00:19:26.550
I hate that, like I can't stand that with sga and you know some of these other players that aren't pure point guards but since they're the best player on the team, they just have them bringing the ball up and making the decisions.

00:19:26.550 --> 00:19:39.969
I can see sometime in crunch time, but I like it when there's a designated point and I love the fact that with Minnesota they've got Conley and I think he brings a lot of stability, so I hope they never deviate from that.

00:19:39.969 --> 00:19:43.703
I hope they can always align him with a strong point guard.

00:19:43.703 --> 00:19:48.813
But yes, to answer your question, man, yeah, he is the closest thing I've seen since.

00:19:48.833 --> 00:19:51.016
Jordan and to me, anthony Edwards.

00:19:51.016 --> 00:19:54.958
It's just, yeah, it's spectacular just seeing what he does.

00:19:54.958 --> 00:19:57.628
I hope and again, nobody was we.

00:19:57.628 --> 00:20:07.853
I really think that the media and everything, the star power, the brightness of LA, really overshadowed how well constructed this Wolves team is.

00:20:07.853 --> 00:20:09.646
And also Rudy Gobert, great series man.

00:20:10.640 --> 00:20:15.893
I tip my cap because after all the crap everybody talked about you not guarding on the perimeter.

00:20:15.893 --> 00:20:18.220
There were some plays that you were making guarding LeBron and Luke.

00:20:18.220 --> 00:20:20.868
I was like, hey, I got to tip my cap to you, man.

00:20:20.868 --> 00:20:26.545
And even still, like Nas Reed, you know, jaden McDaniels, akilah, isaiah Walker, all of them.

00:20:26.545 --> 00:20:35.393
They're such a well-constructed team, whereas the Lakers man I'm envious because it's like, okay, even though it is the best player, it still has to dominate.

00:20:35.393 --> 00:20:38.695
There isn't as much pressure as it is on LeBron or Lucas.

00:20:38.695 --> 00:20:39.737
So I definitely wouldn't.

00:20:39.737 --> 00:20:42.363
I would give the Wolves the props for this series.

00:20:42.383 --> 00:20:48.832
Man, it's, I would give the Wolves the props for this series man, a lot of props and on top of that, you know, look at the moves, you know, giving away Cat or trading Cat.

00:20:48.832 --> 00:20:51.415
I should say A lot of people thought that was an awful move.

00:20:51.415 --> 00:20:52.661
It's over for him.

00:20:52.661 --> 00:20:59.347
And then bringing in Julius Randle, who would underachieve in the playoffs and fizzle out, had injuries.

00:20:59.347 --> 00:21:03.843
He was phenomenal Physical with LeBron, you know, had that dog.

00:21:03.843 --> 00:21:07.968
Now I'm curious to see okay, if he gets his money what's going to happen.

00:21:07.968 --> 00:21:13.029
I don't want to get too crazy with Randle, but I love what he did.

00:21:13.401 --> 00:21:14.826
I didn't see how he did next round.

00:21:16.345 --> 00:21:18.179
The whole thing is it's matchups.

00:21:18.299 --> 00:21:21.847
Yeah, it's matchups the whole time with Randle.

00:21:21.847 --> 00:21:25.210
It's like he'll show up in some games and then some playoff games.

00:21:25.210 --> 00:21:25.661
He doesn't.

00:21:25.661 --> 00:21:27.647
It's I I'll be dang right now.

00:21:27.647 --> 00:21:28.872
Great series man, I hope.

00:21:28.872 --> 00:21:30.076
I hope y'all continue.

00:21:30.076 --> 00:21:35.182
I look here to see what happens to the rest of the playoffs because I'm like nobody was talking about you guys and you.

00:21:35.663 --> 00:21:51.528
You put the league on notice so yeah let's see how the rest of these playoffs go for y'all because can you imagine, if you know, just with the battle of the the titans, if we end up having with sga, right, he and joker they're battling for mvp a lot of people think sga will probably get it.

00:21:51.528 --> 00:21:57.453
So if sga and joker are battling next round, if that ends up happening, that's amazing.

00:21:57.453 --> 00:22:07.148
Then could you imagine in the conference finals if it's sga and ant man, and then that would really be the battle for all.

00:22:07.148 --> 00:22:08.911
Right, yeah, who's the guy?

00:22:08.911 --> 00:22:10.653
Oh, wow, yeah, we'll see.

00:22:10.653 --> 00:22:10.972
We'll see.

00:22:10.972 --> 00:22:16.227
That would be something, yeah.

00:22:16.500 --> 00:22:17.544
Great series to the Wolves.

00:22:17.544 --> 00:22:19.509
Yes, shout out, shout out to them.

00:22:19.509 --> 00:22:21.285
I'm going to give you all your props.

00:22:21.305 --> 00:22:21.766
Doing that?

00:22:21.766 --> 00:22:26.433
Woo, doing that thing for sure, all right.

00:22:26.433 --> 00:22:27.079
Well, let's move on.

00:22:27.079 --> 00:22:28.784
I am going to here, let's.

00:22:28.784 --> 00:22:33.288
We're going to talk about the Pistons, yes, because I know you had a question about that.

00:22:33.288 --> 00:22:37.540
But before we do that, I want to promote our King shows Again.

00:22:37.540 --> 00:22:39.387
We have eight shows at Kings a year.

00:22:39.387 --> 00:22:41.006
Our last show was great.

00:22:41.006 --> 00:22:42.502
Thanks for everybody that came out.

00:22:42.943 --> 00:22:46.992
We are getting ready to this weekend roll out tickets for our next show, june 7th.

00:22:46.992 --> 00:22:48.665
It's going to be fire.

00:22:48.665 --> 00:22:54.426
We're getting ready to announce the guests for that and it's actually what's going to be so great about that.

00:22:54.426 --> 00:22:59.528
One is I don't think tickets are ever going to become available for the public.

00:22:59.528 --> 00:23:04.728
So those that have attended because they've all sold out at least a week in advance.

00:23:04.728 --> 00:23:13.751
So those that have attended are, you know, pick'em Pro members, vips they are going to get an email this weekend with a link to get first dibs on the tickets.

00:23:13.751 --> 00:23:16.667
If we have any left, then we'll open those up.

00:23:16.667 --> 00:23:22.813
So our social media messages will be basically encouraging people to join our wait list off top.

00:23:22.813 --> 00:23:25.167
So that's a pretty cool position to be in.

00:23:25.167 --> 00:23:26.644
So thanks for all the love and support.

00:23:26.644 --> 00:23:29.930
We appreciate that and we can't wait for this next show at Kings.

00:23:29.930 --> 00:23:32.326
All right, so Detroit Pistons.

00:23:32.365 --> 00:23:32.666
Yep.

00:23:32.666 --> 00:23:38.090
So after I mean a hard-fought series that should have gone seven games.

00:23:38.090 --> 00:23:41.788
If we're being honest, I really like this Detroit team.

00:23:41.788 --> 00:23:49.369
I mean, even with losing Isaiah Stewart and Jaden Ivey, they still were able to perform against a very experienced Knicks team.

00:23:49.369 --> 00:23:54.445
So I wanted to ask you do you think that they're a threat in the East next year if they get another key piece?

00:23:54.445 --> 00:24:03.383
Let's say they get another scorer like a Devin Booker, or they get a point guard that can take some weight off of him, like a Trey Young what do you think the Pistons could be?

00:24:04.025 --> 00:24:06.971
Oh man, yeah, I like Trey Young.

00:24:06.971 --> 00:24:17.326
I like Trey Young for this team, and the reason why is because again I'm on this point guard theme I think in order to beat the Celtics, because Celtics are just beyond loaded.

00:24:17.326 --> 00:24:28.406
And Booker although Booker's phenomenal Booker would be a great fit, but I don't know if that gets them over the hump, because I think they still have again.

00:24:28.406 --> 00:24:29.750
Are they like everybody else?

00:24:29.750 --> 00:24:32.307
Do they have Cunningham playing the point?

00:24:32.326 --> 00:24:39.323
They did Bring over the ball, it was just rough towards the end of the game, exactly Now, but with Trey.

00:24:39.983 --> 00:24:46.548
If they bring Trey, a guy that can run point, is a phenomenal passer, can shoot, space the floor.

00:24:46.548 --> 00:24:47.711
I love that.

00:24:47.711 --> 00:24:53.512
I don't know if that's enough to truly beat them.

00:24:53.512 --> 00:25:00.359
But that, and maybe another piece, because the Celtics are so loaded unless there's an injury or something like that you know you have to take into account.

00:25:00.359 --> 00:25:01.561
And then the Cavs man.

00:25:01.561 --> 00:25:05.250
You know that's going to be phenomenal when we see the Cavs face them.

00:25:05.250 --> 00:25:11.002
But I think that puts them beyond the Knicks, for sure, for sure.

00:25:11.364 --> 00:25:29.228
And I think again with the Eastern Conference it's I mean see how well they played, how locked in they were on defense that whole series and again, it took a Jalen Brunson just amazing move towards the end of that game in order for him to like, in order for them to win it.

00:25:29.228 --> 00:25:33.664
I think that, yeah, they have all the potential and I love this story.

00:25:33.664 --> 00:25:42.356
I mean this team, like 19 wins last season didn't get, didn't even get the number one pick that they wanted and now all of a sudden they're out here.

00:25:42.356 --> 00:25:44.282
I mean two playoff wins for detroit.

00:25:44.282 --> 00:25:52.605
Nobody, I I mean nobody would have thought about that, especially people saying that no, this series should have got seven games after that terrible call in game four.

00:25:52.727 --> 00:25:53.709
It should have.

00:25:53.709 --> 00:25:57.785
Shout out to Detroit, shout out to Detroit, shout out to the Detroit fam.

00:25:57.785 --> 00:26:03.344
Man, yeah, yeah, so much so to where, after those first two games, I was like man, did I get this wrong?

00:26:03.344 --> 00:26:04.684
I?

00:26:04.704 --> 00:26:07.146
was really questioning because I wanted to pick Detroit.

00:26:07.146 --> 00:26:14.374
But you know, I just felt that again the experience was going to play a factor and that's exactly what happened.

00:26:14.374 --> 00:26:17.797
But I love what they're building, love what the coach is doing, I love the culture.

00:26:17.797 --> 00:26:30.086
And Detroit also suffered from Isaiah Stewart not being in there, and I don't even know really what the injury was, but that's kind of a mystery you know there, but that was definitely a big blow.

00:26:30.105 --> 00:26:32.595
I mean, he's one of their you know top players, one of their enforcers.

00:26:32.595 --> 00:26:36.266
I could just imagine how physical the series would have been with him.

00:26:36.266 --> 00:26:38.226
So yeah, they definitely missed him.

00:26:38.226 --> 00:26:44.923
But yeah, big, big shout out to Detroit, detroit Pistons, detroit basketball Great to have that back.

00:26:44.923 --> 00:26:48.644
All right, Well, let's move on here.

00:26:48.644 --> 00:26:54.087
Oh boy, let's go to the Warriors Rockets series.

00:26:54.087 --> 00:26:57.470
That is man game six playing tonight.

00:26:57.470 --> 00:26:59.010
So you know it's what?

00:26:59.010 --> 00:27:01.592
7.30 pm, eastern Friday, may 2nd.

00:27:01.592 --> 00:27:05.694
Right now, I think this is what a 9 o'clock tip 9 or 9.30're somewhere in there.

00:27:05.694 --> 00:27:08.316
Man in the Bay, go to state.

00:27:08.316 --> 00:27:10.116
I know Diego is going to be.

00:27:10.116 --> 00:27:18.364
You know pins and needles for this Wifey wife is going to be, you know interested in this one.

00:27:18.364 --> 00:27:20.810
And man, are the Warriors going to close this out tonight?

00:27:23.325 --> 00:27:24.507
I think they can.

00:27:24.507 --> 00:27:35.545
But this series is also very physical, every single time like there's like a hard foul, somebody's like trying to fight somebody Listen.

00:27:35.545 --> 00:27:40.150
One thing I will say about the playoffs is the feeling of the tough and greedy basketball.

00:27:40.150 --> 00:27:44.107
If anybody says that they've been missing, that you guys are not watching at all.

00:27:44.107 --> 00:27:55.089
I think that this series, again, so much of it relies on Steph and Jimmy in the clutch there and seeing what Ahmed Thompson has been able to do and just really be a great defender versus Steph.

00:27:55.089 --> 00:28:02.548
And again my issue has been the consistency of Jalen Green, because Shagun has definitely showed up in the series.

00:28:02.548 --> 00:28:09.689
But I feel like again the Rockets, because they're a younger team that nobody expected to be as good.

00:28:09.689 --> 00:28:16.384
I was really confused with the ending of Game 5 because I was like, okay, if you're kind of the lead to 12, why not just at least see a?

00:28:16.384 --> 00:28:18.891
Steph can have a magical staff moment real quick.

00:28:18.931 --> 00:28:19.070
Yeah.

00:28:19.200 --> 00:28:28.271
That was kind of my my reservation with that of game five, but I do think that in this game six I mean it's the warriors arena they're at home.

00:28:28.271 --> 00:28:31.421
This is like you know who your opponent is already.

00:28:31.421 --> 00:28:40.926
So I feel like stop playing with your food, handle your business, because if we end up Houston back there, anything can happen in the game seven.

00:28:40.926 --> 00:28:44.388
So I really hope that the Warriors lock it up tonight.

00:28:44.388 --> 00:28:50.073
I just again, it's Jimmy or Steph in the clutch and we just got to see that come through, yeah.

00:28:50.633 --> 00:28:50.913
Jimmy.

00:28:50.913 --> 00:28:52.753
We know Jimmy's going to step up.

00:28:52.753 --> 00:28:53.855
That'll be big.

00:28:53.855 --> 00:28:56.596
We'll see how they're able to contain Steph tonight.

00:28:56.596 --> 00:29:06.059
But for Warriors fans, I'm concerned with how much the Warriors celebrated after that Game 4 game.

00:29:06.059 --> 00:29:09.390
I think they had confetti coming out of the ceiling.

00:29:09.390 --> 00:29:12.328
They were on one for that whole game.

00:29:12.328 --> 00:29:25.547
So I love the energy that they brought, but the way they celebrated put it this way if the Rockets had celebrated the way that the Warriors had celebrated, the Warriors would be accusing them of, you know, acting like they should be there before.

00:29:25.547 --> 00:29:28.839
So that was very interesting.

00:29:28.839 --> 00:29:36.148
It felt like they thought that the series was over at that point and they're going to be in a battle.

00:29:36.619 --> 00:29:51.132
So I think this is similar to me to the Memphis series a couple of years ago, because it was like you know, they had a great couple of games and then it's like they were up 3-1 and then they just get blown out by the Grizzlies at home and then they have to come back.

00:29:51.132 --> 00:29:54.550
But it's like this team is kind of like different.

00:29:54.550 --> 00:29:56.142
It's a different beast.

00:29:56.142 --> 00:29:56.784
As a young team.

00:29:56.784 --> 00:30:02.666
I understand that they're inexperienced, right, you guys know how game sixes can go, but it's like stop playing with your food.

00:30:02.666 --> 00:30:04.450
Like this is like y'all.

00:30:04.450 --> 00:30:06.382
Y'all can claim to be vet.

00:30:06.382 --> 00:30:08.574
We can claim that like, oh, they're the special veterans.

00:30:08.574 --> 00:30:09.640
You know they've been here before.

00:30:09.740 --> 00:30:34.483
But it's like, if you've been here before, you know, don know, don't give any team a glimmer of hope, and especially as Warriors fans, y'all should know never give a team a glimmer of hope, because the second that happens, y'all are going to be home, so I really hope that they lock in tonight and win, because I need to get all the rest of my predictions right so we can just laugh about me just being only wrong about the LA Lakers Y'all ruined.

00:30:34.505 --> 00:30:35.685
A perfect streak, la.

00:30:35.705 --> 00:30:40.128
Just look, just understand, y'all ruined a perfect streak, I would have got every player.

00:30:40.128 --> 00:30:42.932
I actually know the Bucs when I got wrong, so yeah.

00:30:42.951 --> 00:30:43.632
So yeah.

00:30:43.771 --> 00:30:47.576
But again, six and two, that would have been great, that would have been great.

00:30:47.796 --> 00:30:53.772
Yeah, yeah, yeah, la, got us, y'all let me down, got it shall it be down, and then we'll see what happens with the game.

00:30:53.772 --> 00:30:58.527
Uh, tomorrow night game seven, yes, so we'll talk about that, that next.

00:30:58.527 --> 00:31:01.353
But that'll, that'll impact your, your record, definitely there.

00:31:01.353 --> 00:31:03.047
So we will, we will see.

00:31:03.047 --> 00:31:05.055
All right, well, can't wait for that one.

00:31:05.055 --> 00:31:06.701
We're gonna check that one out tonight.

00:31:07.182 --> 00:31:08.104
Uh, I kind of want to.

00:31:08.104 --> 00:31:13.013
You know, I selfishly want to see a game seven, just for for my sunday.

00:31:13.013 --> 00:31:21.291
You know, I want, I want to you to be able to get my food, and just that will add so much to my Sunday to have a game seven in H-Town.

00:31:21.291 --> 00:31:24.723
I think that will be great, that will be great for the Thompson household.

00:31:24.723 --> 00:31:26.127
So we'll see.

00:31:26.127 --> 00:31:26.910
Not for Diego.

00:31:26.910 --> 00:31:28.770
Diego is going to be stressed.

00:31:28.770 --> 00:31:35.130
It might be another Diego collapse, the collapse on the ground, like you did with Duke loss.

00:31:35.130 --> 00:31:41.964
So, and then I have to sit there and not really dig in, all right, because mom will get on me.

00:31:41.964 --> 00:31:44.980
So I got to hold back and not really give them that.

00:31:44.980 --> 00:31:47.366
See, I have to get all my business in.

00:31:47.366 --> 00:31:53.009
Like first quarter, I can be rah, rah, rah, but then, like second half, if it's close, I got to pull back.

00:31:53.190 --> 00:31:53.770
I can't really.

00:31:55.960 --> 00:31:57.182
You can't go too hard.

00:31:57.182 --> 00:31:59.003
No, I can't go too hard, man, all right.

00:31:59.003 --> 00:32:00.326
Too funny man, all right.

00:32:00.326 --> 00:32:02.407
So can't wait for that, all right.

00:32:02.407 --> 00:32:04.089
So next one man.

00:32:04.089 --> 00:32:06.393
Oh boy, what a series.

00:32:06.393 --> 00:32:07.375
Clippers, nuggets.

00:32:07.375 --> 00:32:11.042
This is going seven, fittingly so it should go seven.

00:32:11.042 --> 00:32:15.672
I believe you and Diego both had the Clippers in this series.

00:32:15.672 --> 00:32:18.464
I had the Nuggets and I even said Nuggets in six.

00:32:18.464 --> 00:32:22.185
I said Nuggets in six, you said Clippers in seven, so you're on par with that.

00:32:22.185 --> 00:32:24.768
I think Diego probably said Clippers in seven as well.

00:32:24.768 --> 00:32:26.005
We're going to give him that.

00:32:26.005 --> 00:32:29.990
So, man, tomorrow night in Denver.

00:32:30.211 --> 00:32:30.491
Yeah.

00:32:30.491 --> 00:32:42.228
So I'm really happy with how James Harden performed last night, because you know big moment James Harden, you know sometimes it gets a little shaky and you know he really did his thing.

00:32:42.228 --> 00:32:44.567
So very, very good to see that.

00:32:44.567 --> 00:32:56.743
Seeing Kawhi again do his thing Norman Powell has been great this series Nick Matum having his moments and just hitting key threes, the resurgence of Kawhi, that's what I've been very excited to see.

00:32:56.923 --> 00:33:18.489
And I think that again, the Clippers, they are a team that I feel like is going to get hot at the right time and if they play the Thunder, they have to be very worried because there is a bunch of Because that is yet another veteran team against a younger team and I feel like the Thunder, they have the defenders to match up, but again it's like are you going to be able to go up against people who have been on deep playoff runs before?

00:33:18.489 --> 00:33:19.622
Right, so that's.

00:33:19.622 --> 00:33:33.430
And with the Nuggets, I mean Russell Westbrook has had it's like high variance moments where it's like, hey, either he's the reason why they win or he is the you can point to him as the reason why they lost.

00:33:33.430 --> 00:33:40.769
And man, like the blown layup, the blow duck, I was like ross, what's going on?

00:33:40.788 --> 00:33:42.752
because literally it was like the first year.

00:33:42.752 --> 00:33:47.660
It was like game three or something, where he was like the reason why they like won that game right.

00:33:47.660 --> 00:33:49.965
And then this one is like, yeah, what's happening?

00:33:49.965 --> 00:33:57.505
So I have a question I wanted to kick to you, but does yokich's ranking as the best player of the world change if he loses in the first round this year?

00:33:57.505 --> 00:33:58.509
To you at least.

00:33:59.540 --> 00:34:01.568
Ooh man, that's a good one.

00:34:01.568 --> 00:34:16.032
It depends on what happens for the rest of the series, because hey, if Tatum repeats and Tatum is back-to-back although I don't know if anyone would still want to really call him best, because the Celtics are so stacked.

00:34:16.132 --> 00:34:16.958
I guess that's how good the team is.

00:34:16.958 --> 00:34:17.059
Yes.

00:34:17.320 --> 00:34:18.806
You know you have that.

00:34:18.806 --> 00:34:23.934
Yeah, it really depends on what happens the rest of the series.

00:34:23.934 --> 00:34:25.219
But it is a conversation.

00:34:25.219 --> 00:34:30.192
I don't think it's a done deal, that he's still the best, no matter what.

00:34:30.192 --> 00:34:32.226
I think it's a serious conversation.

00:34:32.226 --> 00:34:33.563
And this is the other thing.

00:34:33.563 --> 00:34:42.221
With the Nuggets, we've got to stop this narrative that the nuggets are a one-person team and that they are don't have any help.

00:34:42.221 --> 00:34:49.382
Okay, they have the same, pretty much the same, starting fight, at least for the starting five from the championship.

00:34:49.382 --> 00:34:52.226
You've got jamal murray who's balling out.

00:34:52.226 --> 00:34:53.188
You've got Gordon.

00:34:55.311 --> 00:34:57.454
Yeah exactly, exactly.

00:34:57.454 --> 00:34:59.005
And you've got the other.

00:34:59.005 --> 00:35:01.304
Yeah, you've got Michael Porter Jr.

00:35:01.304 --> 00:35:10.344
So no, they have a deep team and so we've got to stop this narrative that it's just Joker and that he's carrying the team.

00:35:10.344 --> 00:35:19.226
But yeah, it's a question, it is a question yeah, I think that honestly're honest, what I've said.

00:35:19.407 --> 00:35:30.204
You know, that's why I that's my personal I wanted to, just because of, like, how they play, but again, both of them getting first rounded and again all the accolades, all of them being like all-time players.

00:35:30.204 --> 00:35:41.530
It's like okay, guys, like you've seen y'all you know, win a championship and being able to like lead your team there and like backbend, but you haven't been able to do it consistently and we're holding y'all in such high esteem.

00:35:41.530 --> 00:35:43.699
So that's that's why I started to question it.

00:35:43.719 --> 00:36:04.626
But I still think I mean, to me at least, like just what he does, the offensive, and I mean forget about it like I think that and again, like because this mvp race is so close, because of how the annoying thing with his MVPs is the fact that there was one that should have gone to Embiid in the really early one, the first one, but it's like this year.

00:36:04.626 --> 00:36:06.371
I'm like I don't know what to say.

00:36:06.371 --> 00:36:08.027
You are the best player in the world.

00:36:08.360 --> 00:36:08.681
It's just.

00:36:08.822 --> 00:36:14.059
SGA, having to be on the best team and it's just, it's really tough.

00:36:14.059 --> 00:36:23.842
I think that Jokic's ranking won't it's not going to change, but it's a conversation of like okay, as in, we can say that he's the best player in the world, but so much.

00:36:23.842 --> 00:36:27.382
You need to be more than the best player in the world to be on the championship team.

00:36:27.382 --> 00:36:31.123
You need more than just that one guy in order to win a championship.

00:36:31.123 --> 00:36:35.369
So that's why you got the Celtics, you got the Cavs, you got the Thunder, you got all these really deep teams.

00:36:35.369 --> 00:36:36.831
Yeah, yeah.

00:36:37.572 --> 00:36:48.465
I think the only, I think the only player that can truly take best player in the NBA by winning a title this year is Ant-Man.

00:36:48.465 --> 00:36:50.947
Oh, okay, I think SGA.

00:36:50.947 --> 00:36:57.605
He's probably going to be MVP anyway and people will say that his team is so much more loaded than the Nuggets.

00:36:57.605 --> 00:37:00.786
So I think it inches him closer.

00:37:00.786 --> 00:37:13.697
But I don't think people will totally give him that If Ant takes his team from a sleeper and wins the title and people are already clamoring for him to be the face anyway, yeah it's going to be very easy transition to call you.

00:37:13.717 --> 00:37:19.545
Yeah, and he's already taking Joker out in the playoffs and if they happen to play again, he takes him out again.

00:37:19.545 --> 00:37:20.206
Yeah.

00:37:20.427 --> 00:37:21.509
That would be interesting.

00:37:21.509 --> 00:37:23.172
Oh, I never thought.

00:37:23.172 --> 00:37:24.364
I didn't really think about that.

00:37:24.364 --> 00:37:35.074
I think that again, ant is in a perfect position because again he's the rare guard that can play with house, who guards, locks up and is going to give you 40.

00:37:35.074 --> 00:37:37.889
So I think that it is the best balance of that.

00:37:37.889 --> 00:37:44.969
But I'm very excited to see Game 7, the end of this wonderful series, because this has been the best series of this first round.

00:37:44.969 --> 00:37:47.347
This first round was a little bit of a dud, I'm not going to lie.

00:37:47.347 --> 00:37:49.668
I don't know how did you feel about this first round overall?

00:37:50.882 --> 00:37:51.820
Well, it was tough.

00:37:51.820 --> 00:37:57.422
You had, yeah, some duds for sure, but then the the ones that were great were great.

00:37:57.422 --> 00:37:58.744
So it was a little little top heavy maker.

00:37:58.744 --> 00:38:09.338
I would say, uh, now when we go into this next round, you only have one that you're like, oh, okay yeah, but everyone outside of that is going to be.

00:38:09.338 --> 00:38:10.581
That's going to be fantastic.

00:38:10.581 --> 00:38:11.862
Yeah, that's going to be fire.

00:38:11.903 --> 00:38:13.646
So yeah, yeah, excited about that.

00:38:14.306 --> 00:38:14.807
All right, yeah.

00:38:14.807 --> 00:38:18.594
And then one other thing that I want to bring up is Giannis.

00:38:18.594 --> 00:38:21.041
Yes, you know the freak man.

00:38:21.041 --> 00:38:26.172
I think he would be the perfect fit in Houston.

00:38:26.172 --> 00:38:35.489
Yes, man, because you already got the defense, you got the size and you put him there and maybe get one other shooter.

00:38:35.489 --> 00:38:39.807
You already have van bleet who's clutch, but you bring a pure shooter in.

00:38:39.807 --> 00:38:43.983
If they could somehow get yannis, yes man, that would.

00:38:43.983 --> 00:38:45.226
Because you imagine udoka.

00:38:45.226 --> 00:38:46.588
Well, I know you love udoka.

00:38:46.608 --> 00:39:03.688
You know how I feel, right, yannis, I just don't want him in the West Because again, that means that the West is the most loaded in its history and again, the West has always been more loaded than the East historically.

00:39:03.688 --> 00:39:07.771
Yeah, but I really I'm worried that he's going to go to the West.

00:39:07.771 --> 00:39:16.864
As a Lakers fan, I'm like, hey, let LeBron retire, because the battles were already crazy, right, without you know.

00:39:17.125 --> 00:39:31.402
right, another top five player going to this conference you know me, so it's like oh, man, I don't want to deal with that man at the western conference year after year, because I now I do want to win more championships, because he's the reason why I even like want to become a journalist.

00:39:31.402 --> 00:39:32.869
Like watching that, like bucks final series.

00:39:32.869 --> 00:39:34.940
A journalist like watching that, like Bucks final series Okay, I really like that.

00:39:34.940 --> 00:39:42.646
I literally sat down and watched it and like, after hearing his stories, like throughout the, the entire finals, was like, okay, I want to report on this.

00:39:42.646 --> 00:39:43.824
I wouldn't like be there for that.

00:39:43.824 --> 00:39:58.172
You feel me Right, so, being in that moment, and that's why, like he's get more championships and accolades because of how hard you play as a player, but, man, I don't want you to go to the west.

00:39:58.192 --> 00:39:58.373
Selfishly.

00:39:58.373 --> 00:40:00.079
I'm like, please just stay out, because I want the problems.

00:40:00.079 --> 00:40:04.751
Now I know we we're gonna get back on topic here, but you don't want him to go to the west.

00:40:04.751 --> 00:40:08.579
Yeah, but man, could you imagine if you swapped him out for lebron on the lakers?

00:40:08.579 --> 00:40:14.811
Because you talk about you talk about a good fit.

00:40:14.831 --> 00:40:23.760
Yeah, now that's a good fit, because that would give us man that would give us magic and kareem 2.0, and oh my goodness, I would be dude I'd be ecstatic.

00:40:23.760 --> 00:40:26.567
But I'm just thinking, like what can we trade?

00:40:26.567 --> 00:40:29.780
But like how much faith would milwaukee have in lebron?

00:40:29.780 --> 00:40:31.123
What picks would we be able to trade?

00:40:31.123 --> 00:40:32.746
That's just just a full fantasy.

00:40:32.887 --> 00:40:34.329
And LeBron would never go to Milwaukee.

00:40:34.329 --> 00:40:36.072
Lebron would never go to Milwaukee.

00:40:36.112 --> 00:40:56.050
But Giannis, I mean if Dream Scenario LeBron retires this season and Giannis is like, okay, it's not going to necessarily look if I bring Chase in, if I follow in the likelihood of Lew Alcindor which, oh man, we'd be getting called all types of names on the internet because Luca Trey already was like oh, we hate y'all.

00:40:56.050 --> 00:40:58.344
If Giannis goes to us.

00:40:58.344 --> 00:40:59.548
Oh, that's right.

00:40:59.840 --> 00:41:01.608
Oh, my goodness, I would not.

00:41:01.608 --> 00:41:04.630
That might be something he might have to go to the Clippers, clippers, yeah.

00:41:04.630 --> 00:41:07.688
Go to the Little Brothers, go to the Clippers Go to Houston.

00:41:08.019 --> 00:41:09.782
Let's smoke on you, bro, because you go to.

00:41:09.802 --> 00:41:12.268
Houston people ain't gonna be mad at Houston, you feel me.

00:41:12.347 --> 00:41:13.068
Anger of family man.

00:41:13.068 --> 00:41:14.492
So the city ain't gonna distract you.

00:41:14.492 --> 00:41:18.409
So you're gonna be all right, but you're gonna be okay.

00:41:18.409 --> 00:41:25.047
But yeah, I just I hope he goes to a good team at the Western Conference, if anything.

00:41:25.047 --> 00:41:28.942
But I've stayed in the East for a little while but I know Milwaukee.

00:41:28.942 --> 00:41:31.126
They have not helped you at all.

00:41:31.146 --> 00:41:33.630
But yeah, all right, yeah have not helped you at all.

00:41:33.630 --> 00:41:33.931
Yeah, all right.

00:41:33.931 --> 00:41:34.431
Yeah, all right.

00:41:34.431 --> 00:41:35.393
Good, good, good.

00:41:35.393 --> 00:41:35.574
Yeah.

00:41:36.619 --> 00:41:38.914
Well, we're going to move on to talk about our next.

00:41:38.914 --> 00:41:45.826
We're going to talk about some of these round two opponents before we get out of here and bring on Brandon at the end for the final take.

00:41:45.826 --> 00:41:50.742
But before we do that, I got a plug for our sponsor, Lexi's Bussin Bacon.

00:41:50.742 --> 00:41:54.431
Again, check out her Instagram, those of you that are here.

00:41:54.431 --> 00:41:55.313
North Carolina.

00:41:55.313 --> 00:42:01.030
Lexi's Bussin Bacon has amazing treats cookies, desserts, everything.

00:42:01.030 --> 00:42:02.353
Check them out.

00:42:02.353 --> 00:42:07.753
And that's run again by a 18-year-old high school student.

00:42:07.753 --> 00:42:08.735
So it's phenomenal.

00:42:08.735 --> 00:42:09.478
Very proud of her.

00:42:09.478 --> 00:42:15.012
She's always a part of our raffle at King's and just want to give her a shout out as one of our sponsors.

00:42:15.012 --> 00:42:17.284
You can see the cookies here in the front, all right.

00:42:17.806 --> 00:42:20.092
So let's, man, let's move on to round two.

00:42:20.092 --> 00:42:24.471
So we've got two matchups that we know of so far, right now.

00:42:24.471 --> 00:42:29.266
All right, we were going to have the Boston Celtics and the New York Knicks.

00:42:29.266 --> 00:42:30.568
We were anticipating this.

00:42:30.568 --> 00:42:33.010
So Julian Heggie, who was on our show.

00:42:33.010 --> 00:42:35.514
He called out and said that the Celtics were going to win in five.

00:42:35.514 --> 00:42:41.907
They did, said they were playing with their food, but now they've got the New York Knicks and going to take care of business.

00:42:41.907 --> 00:42:44.688
So do the Knicks have any shot in this series?

00:42:46.460 --> 00:42:49.766
Carl Anthony Towns has to be at his best.

00:42:49.766 --> 00:42:52.103
That's the only way I see them winning in the series.

00:42:52.103 --> 00:43:01.699
I mean, jalen Brunson's going to be Jalen Brunson, you don't got to worry about that, he's going to show up, but it's just the inconsistencies of everyone else, because Mikael Bridges will have a game that disappear.

00:43:01.699 --> 00:43:04.688
Oj Ananobi's been consistent, but is that enough?

00:43:04.688 --> 00:43:09.322
Then you've got the Celtics who again that whole Magic series was like oh bit.

00:43:09.322 --> 00:43:13.228
It's like oh yeah, we're gonna let y'all have a little hope.

00:43:13.228 --> 00:43:19.940
And then derrick white drew holiday and everybody's gonna turn up and it's just like every single game came out like that.

00:43:19.981 --> 00:43:28.400
I feel like this will be a little bit more competitive because again, the knicks are can't match up well with them and they have two wings that can guard you to tater but jaylen brown.

00:43:28.400 --> 00:43:32.728
But that experience in the big moments is what.

00:43:32.728 --> 00:43:34.974
Why'm still paying the Celtics to win?

00:43:34.974 --> 00:43:40.967
And right now, because I did pick them to buy Lakers to win, I hope I can curse the Celtics.

00:43:40.967 --> 00:43:44.938
Okay, hey, let's see y'all get better.

00:43:44.938 --> 00:43:45.199
19.

00:43:45.199 --> 00:43:48.266
Oh God, that hurts to even say.

00:43:48.266 --> 00:43:52.670
But I do think that the Celtics, they got it.

00:43:52.670 --> 00:43:54.885
I don't see how they don't win this series.

00:43:54.885 --> 00:43:55.648
Series, if that makes sense.

00:43:56.070 --> 00:43:59.101
Yeah, I agree, I think the Celtics take this in six.

00:43:59.101 --> 00:44:01.429
It'll be a good series.

00:44:01.429 --> 00:44:04.788
But Celtics defense, I think this is a Jalen Brown.

00:44:04.788 --> 00:44:10.606
I think Brown's going to be big in this series, man, but Brunson Brunson's just been amazing.

00:44:10.606 --> 00:44:12.306
He's been absolutely fantastic.

00:44:12.306 --> 00:44:13.842
Love what Brunson is doing.

00:44:13.842 --> 00:44:22.503
Brunson, I consider him and, again, my definition of point guards are different.

00:44:22.503 --> 00:44:24.532
I don't consider SGA and Cunningham and all these other guys point guards.

00:44:24.532 --> 00:44:29.903
I consider Brunson the best point guard in the NBA right now from my definition of a point guard.

00:44:29.903 --> 00:44:39.934
His footwork is impeccable and he's the only guy of that size that can take his team single-handedly to the playoffs.

00:44:39.934 --> 00:44:42.083
You know one exception I'll throw Ja in there.

00:44:42.083 --> 00:44:42.766
I'll throw Ja.

00:44:42.766 --> 00:44:47.190
Ja is the other guy, but I put Brunson ahead of Ja, clearly, of course.

00:44:47.190 --> 00:44:49.487
So he is just phenomenal.

00:44:49.487 --> 00:44:57.273
And the way he got open for that last shot over Thompson against the Pistons was unreal.

00:44:57.273 --> 00:44:59.284
It looked like the way he got open.

00:44:59.284 --> 00:45:00.307
It looked like he pushed off.

00:45:00.528 --> 00:45:01.451
It didn't at all.

00:45:01.451 --> 00:45:03.239
It was flawless.

00:45:03.239 --> 00:45:09.873
I think that the one thing with Jalen Brunson is the fact that he's going to routinely show up.

00:45:09.873 --> 00:45:12.148
He might be injured.

00:45:12.148 --> 00:45:22.659
I respect the dog that he has because even if, like, something bad happens with his ankle or like something else is messed up, there is a lot Like he's going to lay it out all the court.

00:45:22.659 --> 00:45:24.788
It's very rare that you see players like that anymore.

00:45:24.788 --> 00:45:26.327
So shout out to Jalen Brunson.

00:45:26.440 --> 00:45:33.550
I really think that if your team just wasn't full of players who are inconsistent as heck I would.

00:45:33.550 --> 00:45:38.376
I would say that rk, like y'all, can win it all, but it's yeah, I mean, it is what it is.

00:45:38.376 --> 00:45:44.115
I I don't know if he could carry them against a juggernaut like the celtics, so we're definitely gonna see.

00:45:44.115 --> 00:45:46.786
But man, what a great series versus the pistons that he had.

00:45:46.786 --> 00:45:51.463
Yeah, I really think that he needs to be known as the best point guard in the nba right now.

00:45:51.463 --> 00:45:52.644
Easily the.

00:45:52.644 --> 00:46:00.018
He won the most clutch player award, easily deserved, because in the key moments he he definitely showed up in that series.

00:46:00.018 --> 00:46:02.807
So shout out to jaylen brunson and I like.

00:46:02.927 --> 00:46:05.175
I like the next roster better last year.

00:46:05.175 --> 00:46:09.692
Yeah, I think they were a better because diva chenzo was listen, as a lake.

00:46:10.373 --> 00:46:11.838
We're going back to that wolves laker series.

00:46:11.838 --> 00:46:18.163
Dante diva chenzo gave us fits like my goodness, it was like the big shot.

00:46:18.163 --> 00:46:20.407
I didn't even know how good of a defender he was.

00:46:20.407 --> 00:46:28.461
Yeah, until I, like until I was watching that series, there was moments where he was shutting us down, like uh, he's one of those sneaky players.

00:46:28.461 --> 00:46:34.869
I was like if you could just turn and become a laker yeah it's like there's certain role players who I like one of my team, dante diva chenso is definitely he is nice.

00:46:34.889 --> 00:46:35.994
There's certain role players who I like One of my team.

00:46:36.014 --> 00:46:36.878
Dante DiVincenzo is definitely one of them.

00:46:36.878 --> 00:46:37.099
He is nice.

00:46:37.099 --> 00:46:38.646
Yeah, I really like him.

00:46:38.646 --> 00:46:40.965
Yeah, he's one of my favorite players right now.

00:46:40.965 --> 00:46:42.371
Love the way he's playing.

00:46:42.739 --> 00:46:46.630
But yeah, I think the Knicks they took a step back with those moves.

00:46:46.630 --> 00:46:59.588
I mean bringing in Cat, you know DiVincenzo, your Harnstein DiVincenzo they just had a really great mix in chemistry.

00:46:59.588 --> 00:47:03.510
They were gritty and it was the injuries that took them out last year.

00:47:03.510 --> 00:47:06.909
So I wanted to see that team play the Celtics.

00:47:06.909 --> 00:47:11.221
I wanted to see that so bad and you know we got robbed of that.

00:47:11.221 --> 00:47:14.623
So, yeah, I don't think it'll quite be the same this year.

00:47:14.623 --> 00:47:20.728
So we'll see what happens there and also see if the Timberwolves can hold on to DiVincenzo.

00:47:20.728 --> 00:47:24.130
So that'll be interesting to see what happens there.

00:47:24.731 --> 00:47:30.134
All right, well, let's talk about the last matchup here that we know of.

00:47:30.134 --> 00:47:30.934
For round two.

00:47:30.934 --> 00:47:37.782
We've got the Cleveland Cavaliers Again.

00:47:37.782 --> 00:47:49.007
They had a monster year this year, regular season, and they're about to play the Indiana Pacers Pacers coming off that showdown against the Bucs, and you know it's so funny because of the Bucs and Pacers.

00:47:49.007 --> 00:47:57.184
We were clowning them talking about, well, we knew NBA TV, but then you said ESPNU, right, and we laughed.

00:47:57.184 --> 00:48:01.248
But dude, last Friday they were on NBA TV and ESPNU.

00:48:01.568 --> 00:48:03.208
They were actually on ESPNU.

00:48:03.610 --> 00:48:09.193
I didn't even know that was possible, but they really were, so that was hilarious.

00:48:09.193 --> 00:48:11.456
But anyway, man.

00:48:11.456 --> 00:48:14.038
So we already know the Cavs are going to win this series.

00:48:14.038 --> 00:48:16.588
All right, so that's not even going to be who you got.

00:48:16.588 --> 00:48:19.670
The question is can the Pacers win two games?

00:48:20.179 --> 00:48:24.300
I mean, I believe they could if everything breaks right.

00:48:24.300 --> 00:48:33.889
But again, seeing how dominant the Cavs are, but the Cavs being dominant against Miami, I feel like that's fool's gold, because there was a 37-45 team in the playoffs.

00:48:33.889 --> 00:48:36.586
Miami had no business being in the playoffs.

00:48:36.586 --> 00:48:40.530
I'm sorry, and this is why people are starting to argue to get rid of the plate and all that.

00:48:40.530 --> 00:48:44.170
I say keep it, because the playoff intensity earlier helps, I agree.

00:48:44.480 --> 00:48:47.971
But with the Eastern Conference specifically, it's like ugh.

00:48:47.971 --> 00:48:56.510
It gets a little sticky once you get to the 10th seed, because the work, because the 10th seed in the Eastern Conference is easily like 13, 14 in the West, for sure.

00:48:56.510 --> 00:48:59.655
So it's like man, I don't even know.

00:48:59.655 --> 00:49:03.789
I think that the Cavs get hit on their business versus that team, for sure.

00:49:03.789 --> 00:49:15.411
I do think that Indiana, they, they seem to have the requisite talent to maybe sneak one, but I don't know if they can get too off of them.

00:49:15.411 --> 00:49:18.065
And again, the Cavs, they seem like the real oil machine.

00:49:18.065 --> 00:49:19.476
So we'll definitely see how they do.

00:49:19.476 --> 00:49:22.306
But yeah, I don't want Pacer Celtics Like please.

00:49:23.306 --> 00:49:27.230
Oh my God, I don't want that, please, no, no, handle your business.

00:49:27.230 --> 00:49:29.512
Yeah, handle your For all of our sakes.

00:49:29.532 --> 00:49:33.875
Listen, we've won in that conference finals since the beginning of the season.

00:49:33.875 --> 00:49:37.757
Since we saw y'all go on those winning streaks, we're like hold on now.

00:49:37.757 --> 00:49:40.659
Cleveland, this is your moment to prove that y'all are really some thugs.

00:49:40.659 --> 00:49:45.023
This is Donovan Mitchell's founding achievement, hey handle your business.

00:49:46.144 --> 00:49:47.228
That's all I'm going to say in this season.

00:49:47.228 --> 00:49:54.673
Mitchell, cleveland Cavaliers, please make sure you stretch before the game, stretch properly, do before the game, stretch properly.

00:49:54.673 --> 00:49:55.023
Do not pull any muscles.

00:49:55.023 --> 00:49:55.621
Please stay healthy.

00:49:55.621 --> 00:49:57.360
We cannot have the Indiana Pacers in the Eastern Conference Finals.

00:49:57.360 --> 00:50:05.039
So for the economy, for the sake of ESPN, for the sake of a lot of us, please stay healthy and take care of business.

00:50:05.260 --> 00:50:07.451
Yeah yeah, that team is way too.

00:50:07.451 --> 00:50:10.574
The Cleveland Cowboys are way too talented to lose to this team.

00:50:10.574 --> 00:50:13.132
So please, Cleveland, handle your business.

00:50:14.889 --> 00:50:17.030
We got this All right.

00:50:17.030 --> 00:50:21.414
Oh, we have a question, we got a question.

00:50:21.414 --> 00:50:23.213
Oh, here we go.

00:50:23.213 --> 00:50:26.492
So question from Josh what do you think what's up?

00:50:26.492 --> 00:50:28.032
Josh Out of Cleveland?

00:50:28.032 --> 00:50:30.132
What do you think of the hail?

00:50:31.329 --> 00:50:32.032
dad situation.

00:50:32.405 --> 00:50:33.436
Oh, yeah, yeah the dad for Hall Elliot dad situation.

00:50:33.436 --> 00:50:34.264
The situation with oh, oh, yeah, yeah yeah.

00:50:34.264 --> 00:50:36.873
The dad for Hallenberg.

00:50:36.873 --> 00:50:42.456
Yeah, Hallenberg man, you know we started to, we didn't get to it.

00:50:42.456 --> 00:50:54.364
We're going to get to this probably another time, because we have a segment plan where we talk about some of these dads that are acting more like the sibling, acting more like the brother, the homeboy.

00:50:54.925 --> 00:50:58.070
Yeah, the homeboy than being the dad you got, Ja's dad.

00:50:58.070 --> 00:50:59.193
You got, you know.

00:50:59.193 --> 00:51:02.751
Now, Lamar never was that, but he was just more loud and obnoxious.

00:51:02.751 --> 00:51:05.873
But he was never like you know, Lamar was never like a sibling.

00:51:05.873 --> 00:51:10.677
But yeah, that was uncalled for, it was bad.

00:51:10.677 --> 00:51:17.699
Now I do think in his defense, I think he got caught up in the emotion, clearly, but there's no excuse for it.

00:51:17.739 --> 00:51:21.954
You can't do that To a player like Listen man.

00:51:21.954 --> 00:51:25.972
I'm glad Yannis forget he's 6'11 sometimes.

00:51:25.972 --> 00:51:26.751
I'm glad.

00:51:26.751 --> 00:51:32.648
I'm so glad he forget how big that I forget how big he is, because, my goodness, that's true.

00:51:32.648 --> 00:51:32.989
That's true.

00:51:32.989 --> 00:51:34.373
I think that, like that's true.

00:51:34.733 --> 00:51:45.429
Yeah, Giannis has a turtle beef with the Panthers because I remember it was like the highest scoring game that he had and they like snatched the ball for him and they didn't give him the right game ball back, Like what is up with that team.

00:51:45.429 --> 00:51:48.849
That's another reason why I don't want the Pan.

00:51:48.849 --> 00:51:54.298
You're not good enough in a very average conference to talk as much trash as y'all do.

00:51:54.298 --> 00:51:57.251
I'm so sorry the Celtics will take your lunch money every time.

00:51:57.251 --> 00:52:05.755
I hope Cleveland takes that too, Because y'all are literally the fourth best team in the worst conference in the NBA.

00:52:05.976 --> 00:52:08.639
It's like… Exactly, I don't know right.

00:52:08.639 --> 00:52:20.231
And that's why Hallenberg was rated the most overrated player, because they just don't like him, because he's got the broke down jump shot talking junk, and they're like a mid-tier, mid-tier team.

00:52:20.231 --> 00:52:23.409
They have no right to be up there talking as much junk as they do.

00:52:23.409 --> 00:52:23.811
Yeah.

00:52:24.012 --> 00:52:29.983
I just yeah, I really feel like when it comes to certain teams, especially younger teams, you have to earn that.

00:52:29.983 --> 00:52:30.806
Respect the Thunder.

00:52:30.806 --> 00:52:34.432
They've earned that because they've been the one seed throughout the past few years.

00:52:34.864 --> 00:52:34.945
The.

00:52:34.965 --> 00:52:38.070
Grizzlies early on, earlier in that run.

00:52:38.070 --> 00:52:40.585
I feel like they earned it because of how dominant they were.

00:52:40.585 --> 00:52:44.987
The Pacers a little too spicy for my liking.

00:52:44.987 --> 00:52:47.588
A little too spicy, I completely agree.

00:52:47.588 --> 00:52:51.929
Yeah, hallie's dad, please stay off the court.

00:52:51.929 --> 00:52:56.172
You're probably not even going to make it to be on the court because this series is going to get real rough for you guys.

00:52:56.746 --> 00:53:00.650
They've already announced he's not going to be at any games for the foreseeable future.

00:53:00.650 --> 00:53:01.989
They already announced that.

00:53:01.989 --> 00:53:06.552
But it's interesting he wouldn't have run up on Isaiah Stewart like that.

00:53:06.552 --> 00:53:06.893
Not at all.

00:53:06.893 --> 00:53:10.293
He knew he was running up on similar to Draymond Green.

00:53:10.293 --> 00:53:15.608
Was running up on similar to draymond green?

00:53:15.608 --> 00:53:16.793
Yeah, draymond conveniently picks on the european players.

00:53:16.793 --> 00:53:17.536
Yeah, right, you know he doesn't.

00:53:17.536 --> 00:53:18.661
He doesn't go up against certain guys.

00:53:18.661 --> 00:53:19.445
Yeah, you know, that's how.

00:53:19.445 --> 00:53:23.340
Again, that's how you know people always assess the situation.

00:53:23.360 --> 00:53:33.248
Dream on when he was younger, robert, or he was not robbery, uh, medical piece was still in the league and he was like uh, it's like we're real crazy, be actual crazy.

00:53:33.248 --> 00:53:43.005
It's like yeah, yeah, yeah it's about the crescent 300s of the phantoms that's right, that's right, all right, so, yeah, thanks for the question.

00:53:43.626 --> 00:53:44.547
So, uh, all right.

00:53:44.547 --> 00:53:51.786
So we are going to bring brandon on here in a minute, but I believe, before we do that, you had a, um, shador.

00:53:52.206 --> 00:53:55.208
Yeah, talk about Shador for a second, with Shador sliding in the draft.

00:53:55.208 --> 00:54:10.300
I mean it's a two-fold thing, because one I do believe the NFL did seek out try to humble him and Deion and again, and not to play devil's advocate for the NFL.

00:54:10.300 --> 00:54:17.032
But, shador, if somebody could have been in his ear saying, hey, they're not rating you as high.

00:54:17.032 --> 00:54:24.568
You've got to show up to these events, just having the pro day, not having the combine, not having the other workouts, your interviews allegedly being bad, all this stuff.

00:54:24.568 --> 00:54:46.489
That still doesn't warrant the slide, because I could understand the second round if you weren't feeling Shador, fifth round is absolutely bonkers, I'm sorry, I I feel like again, if the first round's like hey, like we don't, the sealers are the same as why, hey, like we don't need a quarterback right now, we're good, but tyler shuck after not even hearing about tyler shuck jaylen bill roll.

00:54:46.528 --> 00:54:48.652
Okay, the upside maybe.

00:54:48.652 --> 00:54:50.096
Maybe I could be sold on that.

00:54:50.197 --> 00:54:58.889
Dylan gabriel was the one where I was like all all right all right now, everybody's officially lost their mind on this one, and with Cleveland doing the whole.

00:54:58.889 --> 00:54:59.851
Well, it's not.

00:54:59.851 --> 00:55:07.889
You have to earn your spot, you're going to have to be this I'm like Cleveland y'all have never been able to figure out a quarterback situation, andrew Berry especially.

00:55:07.889 --> 00:55:21.409
I'm going to just say this you traded for Deshaun watson and we know exactly first off, else we're gonna take the off the off the field stuff outside, because we know that's particularly heinous, right, the fact that he didn't even produce when he was on the field.

00:55:21.409 --> 00:55:33.079
And your backup quarterback, who is now much older, you had to resign because the fans were like, hey, he was actually the reason why we made the playoffs that year, right, instead of the guy you traded and paid $200 million for.

00:55:33.300 --> 00:55:40.153
Right, I don't think y'all are the best when it comes to quarterback evaluation, for being completely honest, yeah, so hopefully you don't break Shender.

00:55:40.153 --> 00:55:58.059
Hopefully Shender can get out of the quarterback hell that is known as the Cleveland Browns, because even still, when you had Baker who's given all he got on the field for you, tore his shoulder up, had to come to us, and the reason why he was terrible was because his shoulder was still messed up, then he goes to an actual team, you see him balling out.

00:55:58.059 --> 00:56:04.621
So, cleveland, I don't think that y'all are the best organization to be talking about what's taken out of them.

00:56:04.621 --> 00:56:07.451
When it comes to quarterbacks, I'm glad Schindler's drafted.

00:56:07.451 --> 00:56:12.155
I'm appreciative of the fact that we have the chance to see the talent in the NFL.

00:56:12.155 --> 00:56:25.885
But yeah, I just think like it's a messy thing all the way, all the way around, and I do feel like, had they like talked, had more insight, knowledge about like where teams view Shador, that would have been better.

00:56:25.885 --> 00:56:28.472
But I still think it was an attempt to humble him.

00:56:28.532 --> 00:56:34.266
It's just ah fifth round was was, uh was pretty bad, um, it's just.

00:56:34.266 --> 00:56:36.617
Ah, fifth round was pretty bad, yeah, but yeah, they needed to read the room better.

00:56:36.617 --> 00:56:46.974
I think a lot of those interviews beforehand hurt them, especially with Dion where they were saying that a lot of the you know other teams you know shouldn't take on.

00:56:46.994 --> 00:56:48.336
They're not good enough, Right?

00:56:48.336 --> 00:56:48.757
Not good enough.

00:56:49.646 --> 00:56:53.510
And so a lot of that definitely hurt and teams were concerned.

00:56:53.510 --> 00:56:55.384
You know of that, but, and teams were concerned of that.

00:56:55.384 --> 00:56:58.554
But yeah, you have to know your situation right.

00:56:58.554 --> 00:57:04.478
You've got the guy from what, penn State who's got all types of issues right.

00:57:04.478 --> 00:57:07.016
He didn't have to do anything because of you know.

00:57:07.036 --> 00:57:08.041
The guy from Marshall.

00:57:08.262 --> 00:57:09.085
All the talent who's got?

00:57:09.106 --> 00:57:09.989
drafted to the Ravens.

00:57:10.170 --> 00:57:10.492
Right.

00:57:10.664 --> 00:57:18.673
Like there's and again, I could understand if, like Shadur, was a nuisance off the field, but even still, the Cleveland Browns signed Sean Watson.

00:57:18.673 --> 00:57:23.454
The NFL has never been great when it comes to like moral absolution.

00:57:23.454 --> 00:57:27.711
So the NFL getting on a high horse, being like, oh, like I got to keep this person off the field.

00:57:27.711 --> 00:57:33.918
Knowing that you got a bunch of people doing some philanderous stuff in the league it's a little crazy.

00:57:34.224 --> 00:57:38.096
I will say, though, for Shador he has a great opportunity.

00:57:38.096 --> 00:57:42.936
Yes, because there is no other dominant quarterback there on that team, not at all.

00:57:42.936 --> 00:57:45.556
And that Cleveland fan base.

00:57:45.556 --> 00:57:58.293
If he turns it around and actually makes them relevant and them good, he will truly be legendary, Like the size that he has in the room.

00:57:58.293 --> 00:58:05.423
So if he can go in there and ball out, he can make it a great situation.

00:58:05.485 --> 00:58:10.351
My thing is, y'all gave an allegedly very cocky person a chip on his shoulder.

00:58:10.351 --> 00:58:15.717
I think that that's, you know, not the smartest thing y'all can do.

00:58:15.717 --> 00:58:21.911
So hey, nfl, I just I really want to see Shadur ball out, but that was a crazy watch.

00:58:21.911 --> 00:58:30.773
Now again other conspiracy theories that oh, they let him fall so that more people will be interested in the draft, which I think is like that's a little far-fetched.

00:58:32.688 --> 00:58:35.036
I hadn't really watched the draft like that.

00:58:35.036 --> 00:58:37.851
It worked for me.

00:58:37.851 --> 00:58:39.014
That's what they did.

00:58:39.014 --> 00:58:40.632
It worked for me for sure.

00:58:40.632 --> 00:58:47.016
I'm curious to see what happens there with the drama.

00:58:47.016 --> 00:58:49.393
That's a rabid fan base there.

00:58:49.393 --> 00:58:55.010
If he can do his thing there in Cleveland, he'll start to build that stock up.

00:58:55.010 --> 00:58:57.452
Dak was a fourth-round pick.

00:58:57.452 --> 00:59:01.735
He's gotten paid many, many times, Maybe too much.

00:59:02.545 --> 00:59:03.632
Yeah, maybe a little too much.

00:59:04.025 --> 00:59:05.492
Don't be worth it, baby, don't be worth it.

00:59:06.344 --> 00:59:09.190
All right, well, let's bring our guy Brandon on.

00:59:09.190 --> 00:59:12.806
Yeah, Tom Brady Brady was picked late, yeah, yeah.

00:59:12.806 --> 00:59:19.612
And then your guy mystery relevant for the Niners Brock Purdy was truly the very last pick.

00:59:19.612 --> 00:59:21.536
Yeah, yeah, all right.

00:59:21.536 --> 00:59:23.773
Well, let's bring on our guy Brandon.

00:59:23.773 --> 00:59:33.594
Brandon, we're going to close out, man, with your final three minutes here, my guy, so let's get your camera on if you can get that, get that going.

00:59:33.594 --> 00:59:34.777
Can you hear us, brandon?

00:59:35.146 --> 00:59:36.688
oh yes, I'm, I'm here.

00:59:36.688 --> 00:59:39.614
Oh you, good, my man you good, yeah, man.

00:59:39.635 --> 00:59:44.050
So, uh, here I'm just gonna run down the list, I'm just gonna rapid fire on you here, all right.

00:59:44.050 --> 00:59:49.365
So, hey, lakers in five man, what, what's your take on that?

00:59:49.365 --> 00:59:51.590
On that, that series did, did you see that?

00:59:51.630 --> 00:59:53.512
coming.

00:59:53.512 --> 00:59:57.119
Part of me, yes, part of me no.

00:59:57.119 --> 01:00:06.552
But I got to give Minnesota credit, what credit is due.

01:00:06.552 --> 01:00:10.018
They kept the Lakers down as advertised and they closed it out.

01:00:10.018 --> 01:00:11.000
They didn't play around.

01:00:11.000 --> 01:00:17.885
So you got to give credit to Ant-Man and the rest of the team for that.

01:00:17.885 --> 01:00:26.235
Didn't expect Rudy to have a game of a lifetime, but hey, it happens when you trade away AD.

01:00:26.235 --> 01:00:29.853
But so there's that.

01:00:29.853 --> 01:00:33.168
Ant-man faces the league.

01:00:33.168 --> 01:00:36.373
He's shown some flashes of it.

01:00:36.373 --> 01:00:39.480
I felt like you got to to me.

01:00:39.480 --> 01:00:45.057
I think he got to deliver a championship and a final MVP for that to happen.

01:00:45.057 --> 01:00:50.956
Golden State I felt like they could still close it out.

01:00:50.956 --> 01:00:56.896
I think they'll close out better in game six as opposed to game five.

01:00:56.896 --> 01:00:59.931
Yeah, so there's that.

01:00:59.931 --> 01:01:07.228
Denver sports teams have two game sevens going on tomorrow night at the same time.

01:01:07.228 --> 01:01:08.253
Oh, really.

01:01:08.724 --> 01:01:09.465
Yeah the.

01:01:09.525 --> 01:01:18.760
Denver Nuggets play the Clippers and then the Colorado Avalanche plays the Dallas Stars on the road.

01:01:18.760 --> 01:01:22.628
Oh, I didn't know that it should be like.

01:01:22.628 --> 01:01:25.793
And, ironically enough, colorado and Dallas Stars playoffs series.

01:01:25.793 --> 01:01:29.918
In hockey it's the only game seven as of right now.

01:01:29.918 --> 01:01:31.400
Wow, that's ironic.

01:01:31.400 --> 01:01:41.416
That's the thing of that's how crazy playoffs work, especially in hockey, because, like there's a lot, there's no, you know, parity.

01:01:41.416 --> 01:01:47.170
I mean, well, there's no super teams or whatever in hockey, so a lot of teams are very evenly matched.

01:01:47.170 --> 01:01:51.838
So there's that, giannis.

01:01:51.838 --> 01:01:56.523
I kind of do see Giannis going to the west.

01:01:56.543 --> 01:02:11.701
um, I would say, don't be surprised if Gold State just magically pulled a 2016 offseason again where they just clear the clear the players and say, hey, we'll get rid of 4 or 5 players and try to go after Giannis.

01:02:11.701 --> 01:02:13.851
Like don't be surprised if they do that.

01:02:13.851 --> 01:02:21.315
Oh boy, wnba preseason just started.

01:02:21.315 --> 01:02:23.831
Dallas is playing Vegas right now.

01:02:23.831 --> 01:02:27.733
Okay, so shout out to Paige Beckers and them.

01:02:27.733 --> 01:02:31.351
Yeah, obviously they've got some injuries.

01:02:31.351 --> 01:02:37.016
But you know, in sports it's humanly impossible to go through a full season without an injury.

01:02:37.016 --> 01:02:39.853
They've got some injuries in the W so far.

01:02:41.427 --> 01:02:46.550
They have a docu-series highlighting women's sports in college, called Full Court Press.

01:02:46.550 --> 01:02:49.432
It's airing tomorrow night on ESPN+.

01:02:49.432 --> 01:02:52.431
It's run by a Omaha production crew.

01:02:52.431 --> 01:02:54.135
That's run by Omaha Production Crew.

01:02:54.135 --> 01:02:56.713
That's run by Peyton Manning.

01:02:56.713 --> 01:02:58.371
Shout out to them for that.

01:02:58.371 --> 01:03:07.505
I would say, before I go, congrats to Pop and his retirement.

01:03:07.505 --> 01:03:08.925
I've been retiring.

01:03:08.925 --> 01:03:23.255
29 years of coaching for him like five titles winningest coach ever, yeah, arguably the greatest coach in NBA history.

01:03:23.255 --> 01:03:27.773
I wish he would have, you know, ended it better.

01:03:27.773 --> 01:03:28.976
But hey, you know.

01:03:28.976 --> 01:03:33.614
Congrats on his retirement and want him to enjoy his retirement.

01:03:34.215 --> 01:03:35.358
Big time, big time.

01:03:35.358 --> 01:03:37.202
Well said, well said, brandon.

01:03:37.202 --> 01:03:39.992
Well, yeah, thanks for keeping us updated.

01:03:39.992 --> 01:03:42.152
You dropped a lot of knowledge in those three minutes.

01:03:42.152 --> 01:03:50.469
There's a lot that we didn't know about the, the docu, uh, greg Popovich giving him his flowers and, uh, the WNBA preseason and everything.

01:03:50.469 --> 01:03:52.996
And I love getting your takes the wrap up, man.

01:03:52.996 --> 01:03:55.201

That's when the WNBA regular season starts.

01:04:04.119 --> 01:04:12.239
You got the Fever in the Sky, and then Aces and the Liberty opening night.

01:04:12.239 --> 01:04:21.333
Then you have Big 3 basketball in June Okay, along with Champions League soccer in June.

01:04:21.333 --> 01:04:32.284
So there's a lot, obviously, kimball Walker and Dwight Howard is now in the Big 3 with Ice Cube, so it should be a unique season.

01:04:32.284 --> 01:04:39.893
It's season eight for them and big three basketball, so it's gonna be a lot of sports in the summertime.

It's not random, it's a feature and a feature and it's common common to fandom when it comes to the right pick, they're all psychic.

01:08:30.447 --> 01:08:31.488
