When your favorite team falls, how do you pick a new champion?

When your favorite team falls, how do you pick a new champion?

Death, taxes, and playoff injuries altering championship dreams. We dive into how the current wave of NBA injuries has reshaped this postseason's narrative. From Steph Curry's hamstring derailing Golden State's hopes to Jason Tatum's Achilles threatening Boston's championship path, we examine whether these setbacks have tainted the playoffs or simply reinforced the brutal reality that availability is the best ability.

The Indiana Pacers have crashed the Eastern Conference Finals party after years of disrespect. We debate whether they're legitimate contenders or simply beneficiaries of an injury-riddled bracket. Did we all underestimate Tyrese Halliburton's impact and Pascal Siakam's playoff pedigree? Our heated conversation explores whether the Pacers could shock the basketball world and make a surprise NBA Finals appearance.

Game 7 between Denver and OKC looms large as a battle for Western Conference supremacy and unofficial MVP validation. We break down what went wrong for the Thunder in Game 6 when SGA's foul trouble changed everything, and predict whether Oklahoma City's electric home crowd can push them past the defending champions. Plus, we react to the NFL schedule release, debate whether the league needs a draft lottery system, and discuss the Dallas Mavericks' incredibly fortunate 1.8% chance lottery win landing them Cooper Flag to pair with Luka Dončić. Is this the birth of the NBA's next dynasty or pure luck?

00:00:00.701 --> 00:00:03.729
Now coming to you live from the Pick'em Pro studio.

00:00:03.729 --> 00:00:05.131
Here are your Pick'em.

00:00:05.171 --> 00:00:05.472
Pros.

00:00:15.082 --> 00:00:18.448
Yeah, yeah, oh man, another episode here.

00:00:18.448 --> 00:00:21.292
So, diego, you are out.

00:00:21.292 --> 00:00:22.795
You're Warriors man.

00:00:22.795 --> 00:00:24.143
Sorry, man, you didn't make it.

00:00:24.143 --> 00:00:30.387
Christopher C Payne Davis, your Lakers lost about a year ago and so I'm the last man standing.

00:00:30.387 --> 00:00:33.268
You know, brianna, we didn't hear Brianna's pick.

00:00:33.268 --> 00:00:37.268
So I know she got OKC, but that was late, so that doesn't technically count.

00:00:37.268 --> 00:00:41.668
So I'm the champ, I'm the default champion man with my Celtics.

00:00:41.668 --> 00:00:46.395
We got a clip here of our guy, Diego, and then we're going to start the show.

00:00:46.395 --> 00:00:47.776
Pick them pros.

00:00:47.776 --> 00:00:52.948
Okay, we're on record, diego, who you got in the finals facing off and who's winning.

00:00:54.103 --> 00:00:59.122
I got the Golden State Warriors versus the Boston Celtics, just like 2022.

00:00:59.122 --> 00:01:04.481
And just like 2022, we're going to beat them Because we got both of their owners in the team.

00:01:04.481 --> 00:01:07.102
Steph owned them three years ago.

00:01:07.102 --> 00:01:10.870
Bm in the finals beat udoka, beat all, all the crew.

00:01:10.870 --> 00:01:16.408
Jimmy butler two years ago beat the boston celtics in seven to go to the nba finals.

00:01:16.408 --> 00:01:18.533
You pair both of those guys together.

00:01:18.533 --> 00:01:20.944
Oh boy, that's just you.

00:01:20.944 --> 00:01:21.805
You can't stop that.

00:01:21.805 --> 00:01:22.888
You just can't stop it.

00:01:22.888 --> 00:01:25.513
I don't see how you stop it.

00:01:25.941 --> 00:01:28.129
We're going to submit you to be drug tested.

00:01:28.923 --> 00:01:30.668
We just beat them two weeks ago.

00:01:30.668 --> 00:01:32.984
They're too small, they can't mess with us.

00:01:32.984 --> 00:01:36.879
They're too young, they don't have enough experience.

00:01:36.879 --> 00:01:39.078
We beat them and you're too old.

00:01:39.078 --> 00:01:46.069
We have all the experience and we have two amazing playoff players.

00:01:46.069 --> 00:01:46.912
Okay.

00:01:49.043 --> 00:01:50.829
So the Warriors, it's going to be Warriors.

00:01:50.829 --> 00:01:53.253
Celtics repeat 2022.

00:01:53.253 --> 00:01:55.864
Warriors win the championship is what you're saying.

00:01:56.243 --> 00:01:56.685
Okay, easy.

00:02:02.302 --> 00:02:02.403
Easy.

00:02:02.403 --> 00:02:08.753

Everyone that makes pick and pros go, everybody watching the show.

00:02:40.344 --> 00:02:42.629
Thank you, so, so, so, so much.

00:02:42.629 --> 00:02:47.659
Diego, my man, you don't have aau today, so so happy to have you here.

00:02:47.659 --> 00:02:48.562
How you doing, man?

00:02:49.002 --> 00:02:49.805
man, I'm doing good.

00:02:49.805 --> 00:02:52.289
Y'all expect me act all sad and stuff.

00:02:52.289 --> 00:02:55.082
I mean, sure we lost that, that's not what we wanted.

00:02:55.082 --> 00:02:59.222
But I mean we didn't have curry and we all knew if we had curry we would have won the championship.

00:02:59.222 --> 00:03:03.048
So I mean I'm I mean all the stuff I said in there is not.

00:03:03.048 --> 00:03:04.169
I wasn't lying.

00:03:04.169 --> 00:03:07.955
We would have beat all those teams and we still own the Celtics.

00:03:09.301 --> 00:03:15.186
I was going to ask about that second-best playoff player that you had, jimmy Butler, and his shot attempts.

00:03:15.186 --> 00:03:17.031
You know him.

00:03:17.031 --> 00:03:20.387
Him was not really acting like him.

00:03:20.387 --> 00:03:21.189
He was a little shy.

00:03:21.189 --> 00:03:21.972
He was a little gun shy.

00:03:22.539 --> 00:03:23.443
Him, he's Robin.

00:03:23.443 --> 00:03:24.979
Okay, he said himself that he's Robin.

00:03:24.979 --> 00:03:25.349
He was a little shy, he was a little gun shy.

00:03:25.349 --> 00:03:25.616
Him, he's Robin.

00:03:25.616 --> 00:03:25.764
Okay, he said himself that he's Robin.

00:03:25.764 --> 00:03:26.972
He was without Batman.

00:03:26.972 --> 00:03:34.008
See, when Robin fights off Batman, he's always going to lose, just always going to lose, because they need Batman.

00:03:34.008 --> 00:03:35.485
You know, they didn't have Batman.

00:03:35.841 --> 00:03:41.782
I wish I'm a comic nerd up here, but you got to turn into Nightwing sometimes, man, you got to pull you got to heal it when.

00:03:41.782 --> 00:03:42.584
Batman go.

00:03:42.584 --> 00:03:45.086
You going to need to turn to Nightwing Red Hood somebody.

00:03:45.086 --> 00:03:48.951
You can't be Robin, off the top you got to do something.

00:03:49.032 --> 00:03:50.495
No Nightwing, just Robin.

00:03:50.895 --> 00:03:54.544
All right All right, man, man, yeah, man.

00:03:54.544 --> 00:03:59.533
So let's stay on this for a little bit, because we are an NFL playoff, we got games.

00:03:59.533 --> 00:04:04.463
This is such a beautiful time of year to have games every night, Isn't it?

00:04:04.463 --> 00:04:04.604
Chris?

00:04:04.604 --> 00:04:04.724
It is.

00:04:04.724 --> 00:04:11.496
It's just so great to have games every single night, especially those of us that pick teams that are still in it.

00:04:11.697 --> 00:04:13.683
It's great to have you only got a few more hours left.

00:04:13.683 --> 00:04:20.286
Yeah, clock ticking Pumpkin is about to Two days Two days.

00:04:21.228 --> 00:04:28.786
Yeah, yeah, yes, I'm the champion, no matter what happens, my team has gone the furthest, so I have yet another, another ring on my.

00:04:28.860 --> 00:04:33.870
Technically it's a tie, though, because we both like, because we both lost in the same round.

00:04:33.870 --> 00:04:35.502
You didn't advance farther than me.

00:04:35.502 --> 00:04:37.624
Have I lost you're good.

00:04:37.644 --> 00:04:38.548
Am I missing something?

00:04:38.940 --> 00:04:39.850
once you lose.

00:04:39.850 --> 00:04:41.622
You wouldn't have advanced farther than me.

00:04:41.622 --> 00:04:43.567
We both lost in the same round.

00:04:43.567 --> 00:04:46.588
If you advance, that mean you would have won, but you didn't.

00:04:46.588 --> 00:04:47.985
So this is the same.

00:04:47.985 --> 00:04:49.009
It's the same.

00:04:49.139 --> 00:04:56.033
If, for some reason, the Knicks get lucky tonight, I still would have gone further, okay, so yeah.

00:04:56.255 --> 00:04:59.714
I got it, so you lost the same amount.

00:04:59.714 --> 00:05:01.567
We lost the same amount of games.

00:05:01.567 --> 00:05:03.160
Okay, lost the same amount.

00:05:03.682 --> 00:05:05.728
Stop trying to hang on to my championship.

00:05:05.728 --> 00:05:07.223
This is my championship.

00:05:07.223 --> 00:05:09.725
It's mine, mine and only mine.

00:05:09.846 --> 00:05:13.627
If we had Curry, Curry would win his fifth championship and be in the GOAT conversation.

00:05:14.920 --> 00:05:18.088
He'd be right there with Jordan, I tried to In that clip.

00:05:18.088 --> 00:05:19.951
I said you're too old.

00:05:19.951 --> 00:05:25.014
I said you're too old, just like I told C-Pain.

00:05:25.014 --> 00:05:26.944
You know when something looks too good to be true.

00:05:26.944 --> 00:05:28.028
See all this wisdom.

00:05:28.028 --> 00:05:33.567
This is this father and uncle wisdom that I am imparting on you, young bucks man.

00:05:33.567 --> 00:05:34.985
You guys are going to be there.

00:05:34.985 --> 00:05:43.483
One day, man, you're going to have all this wisdom and you're going to be spewing it, but right now, you just learn it, just learn, learn, peep gang, Peep gang.

00:05:44.084 --> 00:05:44.545
All right.

00:05:44.565 --> 00:05:46.911
Appreciate you for that, but fly jersey on.

00:05:46.911 --> 00:05:47.853
That's football season.

00:05:48.661 --> 00:05:49.502
It's football season.

00:05:49.523 --> 00:05:49.944
Already.

00:05:50.064 --> 00:05:51.870
That's football season, yeah.

00:05:51.910 --> 00:05:52.771
Schedule release.

00:05:52.771 --> 00:05:55.346
Football season is long way away.

00:05:55.346 --> 00:05:56.370
The schedule's out.

00:05:56.370 --> 00:05:59.329
The only people playing football right now is Clayton High School.

00:05:59.329 --> 00:06:01.625
Those are the only people playing football right now.

00:06:01.625 --> 00:06:07.665
That's it, that's it, that's it.

00:06:07.665 --> 00:06:09.973
They're working on those run players, jet sweeps.

00:06:09.973 --> 00:06:10.956
That's what they're working on.

00:06:10.956 --> 00:06:15.223
We ain't passing All right, all right.

00:06:15.223 --> 00:06:16.404
So let's go, man.

00:06:16.404 --> 00:06:19.249
Let's get into this first topic here.

00:06:19.249 --> 00:06:21.853
Let's get into the injuries.

00:06:22.233 --> 00:06:25.944
Yes, the injuries, see that Injuries.

00:06:25.964 --> 00:06:26.788
Here's the cop out.

00:06:26.827 --> 00:06:31.850
Here it goes, here it comes uh, let's get into these injuries here.

00:06:31.850 --> 00:06:34.221
Okay, because there have been a lot of injuries.

00:06:34.221 --> 00:06:37.528
Okay, steph curry pulled his hammy, for those of you that don't know.

00:06:37.528 --> 00:06:46.026
Okay, uh, jason tatum okay, he had an injury toward his achilles, although boston stepped up and won and swung the ball, but that's neither here nor there.

00:06:46.026 --> 00:06:47.485
I don't know why I brought that up.

00:06:47.485 --> 00:06:52.185
Damian Lillard he getting toward his Achilles and it's just been a lot of injuries.

00:06:52.185 --> 00:06:59.569
Even before the Cavs dealt with a lot of injuries, diego, have the injuries tainted the NBA playoffs?

00:07:00.651 --> 00:07:00.973
I wouldn't.

00:07:00.973 --> 00:07:07.387
I mean the playoffs still been really entertaining, but as far as, like, who's advancing, this definitely affected it.

00:07:07.387 --> 00:07:17.137
Like I mean we all know Curry would have, you know, carried them to win that series or the championship, I mean that was affected.

00:07:17.137 --> 00:07:21.423
The Celtics would.

00:07:21.423 --> 00:07:25.627
I think the Celtics would have came back from 2-0 if they had Tatum and beat them Milwaukee if they had Dame.

00:07:25.627 --> 00:07:29.923
I think the Pacers would have been gone in the first round and the Cavs.

00:07:29.923 --> 00:07:35.987
They had three starters, two all-stars out and that cost them to lose to the Pacers.

00:07:35.987 --> 00:07:40.086
So yeah, they've definitely affected it, but the playoffs they've still been entertaining.

00:07:40.086 --> 00:07:42.261
There's still been a lot of good games going on, okay.

00:07:42.862 --> 00:07:53.449
All right, I never want to be a contrarian on this, but again, in NBA history, injuries have been a part of literally every single playoff race, every playoff journey.

00:07:53.449 --> 00:08:00.548
I mean shoot Draymond even came up after the series and said hey, listen, I won the finals with Kevin Love and Kyrie.

00:08:00.548 --> 00:08:04.709
I would think that we would still win, but because of those injuries it did swing it.

00:08:07.579 --> 00:08:11.384
One thing I'm sorry to cut you off, but, LeBron, he had the injury also, right he?

00:08:11.404 --> 00:08:15.245
got an ACL in Game 5.

00:08:15.387 --> 00:08:16.228
Game 5 was something.

00:08:16.228 --> 00:08:18.507
Game 5, yeah, so that was it man, my bad.

00:08:19.343 --> 00:08:20.226
We forgot about LeBron.

00:08:20.226 --> 00:08:23.829
Y'all just blew my mood.

00:08:23.829 --> 00:08:27.704
I was happy, I was in a good mood.

00:08:27.704 --> 00:08:29.716
We wasn't talking about the lakers, we were just gonna focus on the warriors, listen.

00:08:29.716 --> 00:08:31.062
But now you had to bring me back here anyway.

00:08:31.062 --> 00:08:36.363
But with that like injury and with everything that's gone on during these playoffs, it's still been entertaining.

00:08:36.363 --> 00:08:38.729
It still has been fun seeing up and coming teams.

00:08:39.169 --> 00:08:41.823
I did want to ask how do you think the calf series was shaped?

00:08:41.823 --> 00:08:51.147
Because Because I'm of the opinion of A you were up by eight in game two, even with Donovan Mitchell doing his full thing, having an all-time Donovan Mitchell game.

00:08:51.147 --> 00:08:55.549
How do you forget to do an inbounds pass four straight times?

00:08:55.549 --> 00:08:56.211
You feel me.

00:08:56.211 --> 00:08:58.585
How do you not get the rebound?

00:08:58.585 --> 00:09:03.144
And let Tyrese Halliburton get the rebound, you feel me, and let him get you for game?

00:09:03.144 --> 00:09:08.929
So that contributed to why they lost that series more than them being hurt.

00:09:08.929 --> 00:09:13.908
And again Darius Garland was not himself and that that was tough.

00:09:13.908 --> 00:09:17.296
But again, I don't trust Darius Garland in those big moments, I'm sorry.

00:09:17.296 --> 00:09:19.899
I trust Evan Mobley was showing me something.

00:09:19.899 --> 00:09:21.100
Jared Allen was showing me something.

00:09:21.100 --> 00:09:25.711
Deandre Hunter he ain't do much except get the guy ejected.

00:09:25.711 --> 00:09:29.289
So it's like did that really contribute or were the Cavs fake?

00:09:29.289 --> 00:09:29.831
What do you think?

00:09:30.461 --> 00:09:37.312
Man, I think it was injuries and I don't like how everybody is not giving the Cavs a pass for that.

00:09:37.312 --> 00:09:41.572
Everyone is saying that you know the Cavs lost that series.

00:09:41.572 --> 00:09:44.929
They're giving Indiana a whole lot of credit for that series.

00:09:44.929 --> 00:10:07.801
I personally feel that the Cavs are going to be back next year and I'm buying all the Cavs stock for next year because if the East is going to be in the state that it is right now and the Cavs come back whole same roster, I'm putting the Cavs in the NBA Finals easily because any tell me another team that loses three starters that's going to win the series.

00:10:08.481 --> 00:10:15.264
I don't know of anything and so it's baffling to me that they don't get a pass for having three starters hurt.

00:10:15.264 --> 00:10:21.964
But every other team that had injuries golden state loses one player, one hall of fame, all-time top 10.

00:10:21.964 --> 00:10:32.527
You, you know great player, but still they lose three starters and you know, all of a sudden they choked and this and that I think that's totally unfair.

00:10:32.527 --> 00:10:35.008
I'm buying Cavs stock for next season.

00:10:35.008 --> 00:10:39.928
If there is any place I can go and put something on it, I will put something on it right now.

00:10:40.974 --> 00:10:42.019
Yeah, yeah.

00:10:42.019 --> 00:10:46.711
Also the Cavs yeah, they definitely, definitely would have beat the Pacers they had.

00:10:46.711 --> 00:10:47.422
They were healthy.

00:10:47.422 --> 00:10:49.509
Easily, yeah, easily, yeah.

00:10:49.509 --> 00:10:50.351
Nba finals.

00:10:50.351 --> 00:10:54.405
I like that take for next year NBA finals Cavs yeah, they got.

00:10:54.405 --> 00:10:58.500
They got a lot to prove and Mitchell's one of the best playoff performers in the leagues.

00:10:58.520 --> 00:10:59.543
Yes, definitely happened.

00:10:59.543 --> 00:11:02.030
Mitchell man, I saw that fire in Mitchell's eye.

00:11:02.030 --> 00:11:04.384
He was looking, looking serious man.

00:11:04.384 --> 00:11:08.787
A shout out to him because he played his heart out Again was hunched over, looking like Luka.

00:11:08.787 --> 00:11:10.988
He was so tired at the end of those games.

00:11:10.988 --> 00:11:13.086
But no, he's going to be ready.

00:11:14.360 --> 00:11:20.629
He's going to be ready next year and guess where he and Luka are at on the couch Because again it was not enough.

00:11:20.629 --> 00:11:37.422
And listen, I'm not going to talk bad about Donovan Mitchell because he shows up every playoffs, but I'm just getting more and more concerned with the fact that he hasn't gotten past the second round, which again it's like, but again to me it's like it's the East, like I get it.

00:11:37.422 --> 00:11:47.125
When you were with Utah, you feel me, you were running into some dogs and I'm like, listen, it's the East, and you're like a one seat typically, like there's no way you're not getting past some of these guys.

00:11:47.386 --> 00:11:50.370
This is the first year he's been a one seat Like the like.

00:11:50.370 --> 00:11:52.231
Last year they ran to Boston.

00:11:52.231 --> 00:11:54.913
Even before that it was, it was the Knicks.

00:11:54.913 --> 00:12:01.326
I mean they could have got that, I mean last year you can.

00:12:01.787 --> 00:12:04.451
If you're going to get on him, I'd say that series against the Knicks.

00:12:04.451 --> 00:12:09.399
I think that's more of an indictment than this year or any other year, definitely.

00:12:09.399 --> 00:12:24.902
But yeah, I I believe in them, I believe in Mitchell, I believe in them and he's one of the few teams, he's one of the few players, I should say, that can carry his team to a second round appearance, his team to a second round appearance.

00:12:24.902 --> 00:12:29.225
Many of these, the freak, can't even carry his team to the second round anymore.

00:12:29.225 --> 00:12:42.275
So you know, and we all put freak in, you know top top five, but let's bring in Brianna, our athlete correspondent, because we've got to get her take on this.

00:12:42.275 --> 00:12:46.360
And she said Nixon five, okay.

00:12:46.360 --> 00:12:56.186
So okay, nickix, you might be okay with that, but definitely not nixon five no, not in five, but if they win tonight, they could win.

00:12:56.265 --> 00:12:59.150
It could be something you got, so, so it is your guy, okay.

00:12:59.150 --> 00:12:59.672
So which?

00:12:59.672 --> 00:13:03.303
Which bridges, which nikhil bridges, are going to show up tonight?

00:13:03.303 --> 00:13:10.788
All right, is it going to be the one that's all brash talking junk, hitting shots, talking about we here, we ain't scared, and all of that?

00:13:10.788 --> 00:13:15.505
Or is it going to be the one that showed up in the last game when the Knicks got blown out?

00:13:15.505 --> 00:13:17.225
Which one are we getting today?

00:13:17.245 --> 00:13:18.529
Bree, the first one.

00:13:18.529 --> 00:13:20.044
He's going to be there.

00:13:20.044 --> 00:13:21.982
He's going to be ready in his defense.

00:13:21.982 --> 00:13:23.303
He's going to be ready in his defense.

00:13:23.303 --> 00:13:24.666
He's going to get all the rebounds.

00:13:24.666 --> 00:13:25.648
He's going to be amazing.

00:13:25.687 --> 00:13:26.528
Going to be on one.

00:13:26.528 --> 00:13:28.591
All right, so that New York Knicks crowd.

00:13:28.591 --> 00:13:33.845
They're going to have the battery back in his back and he's going to be doing his thing tonight.

00:13:33.865 --> 00:13:38.509
Yep, they're all going to be good supporters and they're going to help him be the best he can tonight.

00:13:39.311 --> 00:13:41.241
Okay, all right, all right.

00:13:41.241 --> 00:13:42.062
What do you guys think?

00:13:43.484 --> 00:13:44.586
Yeah, I got the Knicks tonight.

00:13:44.745 --> 00:13:47.669
Listen, they got to win tonight.

00:13:47.669 --> 00:13:53.135
It can't go back to Boston because again we're on the precipice of history.

00:13:53.135 --> 00:14:00.700
Everybody's joking about what's going to happen if New York can potentially win the finals, because now it's looking like, I mean, I don't even know.

00:14:00.700 --> 00:14:04.291
We're talking about this Nuggets Thunder series.

00:14:04.291 --> 00:14:05.725
Who's going to come on top of that?

00:14:05.725 --> 00:14:10.270
But like I mean, if they play the Wolves, I don't think it's possible.

00:14:10.270 --> 00:14:10.731
I don't know.

00:14:10.731 --> 00:14:12.947
I'm very intrigued to see what the Knicks can do.

00:14:13.349 --> 00:14:19.168
Yeah, so, because we'll talk about the Celtics in a minute, but just staying on the injuries for a minute here.

00:14:19.168 --> 00:14:23.431
Bree, we need to get your take on the injuries.

00:14:23.431 --> 00:14:26.687
How, bree, we need to get your take on the injuries?

00:14:26.687 --> 00:14:27.070
How do you feel?

00:14:27.070 --> 00:14:28.979
Have they tainted the playoffs at all?

00:14:28.999 --> 00:14:29.179
for you.

00:14:29.179 --> 00:14:34.549
No, I mean all the teams that I think are going to win, all the players on the other teams that I don't think are going to get hurt.

00:14:34.549 --> 00:14:42.203
So it kind of helps my odds, Even though I feel bad, for like Stephen Curry obviously I feel bad because I mean I love him so much.

00:14:42.203 --> 00:14:44.327
You know, know, I even had a jingle for him when I was little.

00:14:44.327 --> 00:14:50.182
Like I'm not gonna say it because it's embarrassing, but you know I do like steph curry, so I feel bad for him obviously.

00:14:50.261 --> 00:14:54.711
But yeah I mean I don't know, I just don't really care.

00:14:54.711 --> 00:15:01.227
I think it helps me in the end, which sounds so bad, but I mean, it's what it is.

00:15:01.227 --> 00:15:02.090
It is what it is.

00:15:02.090 --> 00:15:03.591
At the end of the day, they'll be fine.

00:15:04.173 --> 00:15:05.414
Yeah, they are.

00:15:07.780 --> 00:15:10.528
Like to play for game six, maybe possibly.

00:15:10.687 --> 00:15:14.326
Okay, okay, yeah, they are part of the game.

00:15:14.326 --> 00:15:18.772
You know, last year, I mean, brunson had his injury.

00:15:18.772 --> 00:15:23.450
There's always a team that's impacted, so a lot of winning the championship, it's a war of attrition, so you have to stay healthy.

00:15:23.450 --> 00:15:26.121
Of winning the championship, it's a war of attrition, so you have to stay healthy.

00:15:26.121 --> 00:15:27.384
Some luck involved.

00:15:27.384 --> 00:15:32.184
There's a lot of different factors involved, but health is definitely a big factor.

00:15:32.184 --> 00:15:54.085
Yes, so yeah, and you know, and even speaking of brunson, we may talk about that a little more but with brunson seems like every other game he tweaks that ankle, he goes in, gets something done, comes back, but I don't know If he keeps doing that, every game, every other game, something's going to happen.

00:15:54.304 --> 00:15:54.905
Yeah.

00:15:55.126 --> 00:16:00.982
Especially against the Pacers, where, magically, the star gets hurt.

00:16:00.982 --> 00:16:03.206
That's my concern.

00:16:03.828 --> 00:16:05.631
Yeah, for sure, for sure.

00:16:05.631 --> 00:16:06.573
All right, bree.

00:16:06.573 --> 00:16:11.192
Well, I know again, you're doing a bunch of great interviews for us.

00:16:11.192 --> 00:16:15.206
We've got Will Hernandez coming up, so we've got that coming out next week.

00:16:15.206 --> 00:16:17.125
Yeah, Really excited about that.

00:16:17.125 --> 00:16:22.158
So great job there, and I think we'll be seeing you later on today or tonight to talk about the NFL schedule.

00:16:22.158 --> 00:16:30.485
Yes, on today or tonight to talk about the NFL schedule, and I know our guy Diego will be super excited to talk some NFL to get away from basketball.

00:16:31.746 --> 00:16:32.828
Carolina Panthers.

00:16:32.828 --> 00:16:34.631
We're hype, all right.

00:16:38.604 --> 00:16:39.587
We'll see you a little later.

00:16:42.126 --> 00:16:43.270
Got to find joy in the void.

00:16:43.270 --> 00:16:44.884
I've already been playing this shoot.

00:16:44.884 --> 00:16:46.568
I've been playing it a week early, diego.

00:16:46.568 --> 00:16:49.125
You're finally, actually no, two weeks early technically.

00:16:49.125 --> 00:16:51.706
Yeah, yeah, you finally arrived on schedule.

00:16:51.706 --> 00:16:55.789
Let's Carolina Panthers oh yeah, almost.

00:16:55.870 --> 00:16:59.827
All right, we'll relieve you guys and talk a little bit of Panthers later.

00:16:59.827 --> 00:17:02.424
Let me acknowledge some of the comments that I've been seeing.

00:17:02.424 --> 00:17:05.752
So, big Three is starting soon.

00:17:05.752 --> 00:17:07.925
So, brandon, I know you put that out there.

00:17:07.925 --> 00:17:09.770
So, yeah, that's founded, they start soon.

00:17:09.770 --> 00:17:11.526
I think they had their draft.

00:17:11.526 --> 00:17:17.506
I think there was a player you messaged me and told me that I think it was, was it Lance Stevenson?

00:17:17.506 --> 00:17:20.107
I think it was that you said is playing with some.

00:17:20.107 --> 00:17:23.143
There was a player that you mentioned that's playing Big Three.

00:17:23.143 --> 00:17:27.727
A lot of big people are playing there, so a lot of great things happening.

00:17:27.727 --> 00:17:31.631
Wnba, I think, also starts tonight, so we've got that.

00:17:31.631 --> 00:17:42.249
And then I also saw a comment of Josh with his Cavs, and I think he is definitely a big Cavs fan, so I think he liked the fact that there's somebody taking up for him.

00:17:42.249 --> 00:17:44.881
Yes, lance Stevenson, okay, he will join the Big 3.

00:17:44.881 --> 00:17:45.501
I thought so.

00:17:45.882 --> 00:17:48.703
Yeah, so that's big man, lance Stevenson Love.

00:17:48.723 --> 00:17:49.324
that, all right.

00:17:49.324 --> 00:17:53.146
Well, we're going to talk Celtics here in a moment.

00:17:53.146 --> 00:17:59.290
All right, yeah, now Nick's going to lose the night, but before we do that, we want to again plug.

00:17:59.290 --> 00:18:03.835
We will be at Kings here in Raleigh, north Carolina, three weeks from tomorrow.

00:18:03.835 --> 00:18:06.056
Oh man, we got a fire show.

00:18:06.056 --> 00:18:07.237
Guests are being lined up.

00:18:07.237 --> 00:18:09.083
We got like seven guests.

00:18:09.083 --> 00:18:11.510
We got all types of people coming through.

00:18:11.510 --> 00:18:13.667
We're going to have music, as always.

00:18:13.667 --> 00:18:22.240
We got high school athletes, we've got Gridiron Gang football team, people to be named later A lot of folks coming through.

00:18:22.682 --> 00:18:30.226
You definitely want to come through and get your, get your picks, and then let's see Was that a question?

00:18:30.226 --> 00:18:33.153
Second chance picks, who we got winning the championship?

00:18:33.153 --> 00:18:35.904
Yes, so actually, let's, let's tackle this.

00:18:35.904 --> 00:18:41.267
So a question from Josh Second chance who do you guys have winning the championship?

00:18:41.267 --> 00:18:43.352
So, of course I don't have to.

00:18:43.352 --> 00:18:46.190
I'm still in it, so I don't have to give a second chance pick.

00:18:46.190 --> 00:18:55.984
But for you two guys, since you have to give a second chance pick, why don't you go ahead and give your second chance pick, since you have to do that, diego, when we start?

00:18:56.025 --> 00:18:57.986
seeing you might as well re-pick.

00:19:00.226 --> 00:19:01.869
You got a few hours left, I'm good.

00:19:04.181 --> 00:19:06.462
TikTok's irrelevant.

00:19:06.502 --> 00:19:08.865
Let's see, I got OKC.

00:19:08.865 --> 00:19:11.287
Okc versus Boss.

00:19:11.287 --> 00:19:11.926
No, not.

00:19:12.287 --> 00:19:12.528
Boss.

00:19:13.528 --> 00:19:14.048
OKC.

00:19:14.048 --> 00:19:17.571
I think I taped him OKC versus the Knicks.

00:19:17.571 --> 00:19:23.836
Ok, in the finals I'm getting taken OKC and 5 against the Knicks Ooh.

00:19:24.980 --> 00:19:26.064
Alright.

00:19:26.064 --> 00:19:27.628
So so I got.

00:19:27.628 --> 00:19:31.813
Actually, after that Nuggets performance, I'm a little scared.

00:19:31.813 --> 00:19:32.619
I'm a little scared.

00:19:32.619 --> 00:19:34.227
I'm a stick with OKC.

00:19:34.227 --> 00:19:36.808
I gotta hope to these.

00:19:36.808 --> 00:19:41.386
I'm just so weirded out that they haven't announced the MVP yet.

00:19:41.386 --> 00:19:45.647
If they like, announce it at the end of the game, regardless if somebody loses.

00:19:45.647 --> 00:19:49.707
Somebody said WWE style, just hanging above the ring like a championship belt.

00:19:51.003 --> 00:19:53.907
Let's just hang it in the arena or something like that.

00:19:53.907 --> 00:19:58.904
But man, I still have OKC winning it versus the Knicks.

00:19:58.904 --> 00:20:05.066
But I'm I don't know Jokic and that guy Strother, he just came out of nowhere last night.

00:20:05.066 --> 00:20:08.036
I don't know Jokic and that guy Strother like he just came out of nowhere last night.

00:20:08.175 --> 00:20:12.916
I don't know, never seen him before I ain't never like never heard of him off the bench.

00:20:12.916 --> 00:20:18.685
All of a sudden it's just like oh all right, there's dog in them, so we'll see.

00:20:18.685 --> 00:20:22.705
But I got an okay seat still, but I'm a little scared.

00:20:22.705 --> 00:20:23.348
I'm a little scared.

00:20:23.759 --> 00:20:24.321
Yeah, yeah.

00:20:24.321 --> 00:20:28.531
Well, again, josh, I'm, you know, sticking with my original pick that I made.

00:20:28.531 --> 00:20:33.031
I still have OKC and Celtics in the finals.

00:20:33.031 --> 00:20:35.019
I'm going to stick with that, so I don't have to.

00:20:35.019 --> 00:20:36.183
Oh, you're sticking with Boston?

00:20:36.183 --> 00:20:37.830
Then yeah, oh, yeah, Of course.

00:20:37.871 --> 00:20:41.084
Yeah, they're still in.

00:20:41.505 --> 00:20:42.306
I saw the vials.

00:20:42.306 --> 00:20:46.132
I was like a little shifty there All right man, nope, nope, nope, sticking with it.

00:20:46.132 --> 00:20:49.486
I'm good, not nervous at all without Jason Tatum, and so, speaking of the Celtics.

00:20:49.779 --> 00:20:51.723
Now it's time to talk about the Celtics.

00:20:51.723 --> 00:20:55.815
All right, so don't underestimate the heart of a champion.

00:20:55.815 --> 00:21:05.944
All right, the Celtics have three, really four, olympians and all stars.

00:21:05.944 --> 00:21:10.166
All world players is out and Jason Tatum get well soon, tatum.

00:21:10.166 --> 00:21:30.691
However, the Celtics have a very strong team, very capable team, and they actually have a team that, as you saw from game five, that will be able to move the ball a little more, be a little more scrappy, swing the ball, swing, swing, swing, get those open shots and they're just going to kind of play more of a grit and grind Knicks style.

00:21:30.691 --> 00:21:34.371
But the Celtics are so talented they can play Knicks ball better than the Knicks.

00:21:34.371 --> 00:21:37.279
So that's exactly what's going to happen tonight.

00:21:37.420 --> 00:21:47.596
And then, oh man, that thing, go back to Boston Monday night, man, I might get a last minute to roll out there and be out there.

00:21:47.596 --> 00:21:56.087
Man, me and my guy Julian probably roll through Boston and be hanging with Bobby Brown and Ricky and Mike and go down there and check out the Celtics.

00:21:56.087 --> 00:22:00.481
Yeah, man, it's a beautiful, it's a beautiful weekend, it's a great time to be alive.

00:22:00.481 --> 00:22:02.087
What's your take on the Celtics?

00:22:03.204 --> 00:22:03.286
man.

00:22:03.286 --> 00:22:05.478
That's not going to happen because they're going to lose tonight.

00:22:05.478 --> 00:22:11.003
Jalen Brunson, he took that sixth foul so that he could get some extra.

00:22:11.003 --> 00:22:13.946
Rest that ankle, very smart, yeah, very smart.

00:22:13.946 --> 00:22:17.484
Rest that ankle for this next game and close it on out.

00:22:17.484 --> 00:22:25.739
I expect a 40-piece, 10 assists, something like that and knock the Celtics out and get ready for next year.

00:22:26.363 --> 00:22:29.669
But my question is what kind of defense is Brunson going to play tonight?

00:22:29.669 --> 00:22:32.047
I mean, we don't need defense.

00:22:32.381 --> 00:22:40.027
They got Mikael Bridges, they got Josh Hart, they got Cat Never mind yeah they got Mikael Bridges and Hart.

00:22:40.027 --> 00:22:42.246
But yeah.

00:22:43.623 --> 00:22:44.446
They got some defense.

00:22:44.446 --> 00:23:03.384
I'm sorry the Cat captain took me out, but I think that when it comes to your team again, it, the Celtics, are so good, but I feel like the Knicks have to rise to this occasion, like you have to dispel the little brother in the East Ruber, this is you're at home.

00:23:03.384 --> 00:23:10.403
They don't have their best player who again was literally going toe to toe with y'all and they, they don't got that guy.

00:23:10.403 --> 00:23:11.488
No more Again.

00:23:11.488 --> 00:23:16.384
It's just John got Derek white, that that that we shot the ball.

00:23:16.384 --> 00:23:17.849
Dudes, you feel me, y'all are, y'all are.

00:23:17.849 --> 00:23:19.842
Y'all are crazy, y'all are.

00:23:20.142 --> 00:23:28.755
But, I think that when it comes to how well he played last game, that's what scares me, because you don't factor for that all the time.

00:23:28.755 --> 00:23:32.667
You're just like oh, we got to stop Jalen, we got to stop Chris Hassell from getting on the boards.

00:23:32.667 --> 00:23:35.048
You're not going to count for Derek White hitting five threes.

00:23:35.048 --> 00:23:39.045
You're not going to count for Peyton Pritchard or Luke Cordell locking down defensively.

00:23:39.045 --> 00:23:44.311
So this has to be and I know that you just throw a lot of shade at Kat Kat's got to dominate.

00:23:44.311 --> 00:23:49.406
This can't be one of those games where Kat decides, you know, to turn into Big Purr.

00:23:49.406 --> 00:23:51.632
You feel me that ain't the time for that.

00:23:52.140 --> 00:23:53.086
That ain't the time for that.

00:23:53.086 --> 00:23:55.465
I'm sorry.

00:23:55.465 --> 00:23:55.827
I'm sorry.

00:23:55.920 --> 00:23:58.067
Kat got to turn up she cannot be Big.

00:23:58.067 --> 00:24:02.691
Purr, tonight Minnesota pulled the Dallas Mavs yeah.

00:24:05.079 --> 00:24:05.442
Wasn't that bad.

00:24:05.442 --> 00:24:06.246
I wonder how long.

00:24:06.246 --> 00:24:09.623
I wonder if Julius Randall's going to be playing like this next year, Once he gets paid.

00:24:09.623 --> 00:24:10.305
Once he gets paid.

00:24:12.641 --> 00:24:12.922
Shoot.

00:24:12.922 --> 00:24:14.689
I ain't never seen him play this good in the playoffs.

00:24:14.689 --> 00:24:17.548
That's what I was counting on for, why we were winning.

00:24:17.548 --> 00:24:17.971
Yeah, really.

00:24:18.721 --> 00:24:19.284
We turned him up.

00:24:19.324 --> 00:24:20.924
apparently we gave him the confidence.

00:24:20.924 --> 00:24:22.021
It was like beating us.

00:24:22.061 --> 00:24:23.644
And then he was like oh wait, I'm doing this right.

00:24:23.644 --> 00:24:32.608
I didn't even mean to like throw a shade at Cat there, but I was like I was just thinking like the seven feet, like physically imposing, and then I was like, oh yeah, he just doesn't play defense, yeah.

00:24:33.559 --> 00:24:34.704
And it's always in foul trouble.

00:24:34.704 --> 00:24:35.046
So yeah, cat.

00:24:35.859 --> 00:24:38.483
Somehow he gets in foul trouble playing no defense.

00:24:39.064 --> 00:24:42.930
Always he wants to get a rest or something or go to the bench.

00:24:42.930 --> 00:25:01.372
But yeah, I don't know, that was actually a Shaq tactic, so like, if Shaq I remember he has a hilarious story of like he had a huge birthday party planned and he really didn't feel like playing so he purposely got like two quick fouls to start the game to be on the bench.

00:25:01.372 --> 00:25:03.461
So yeah, that is a real thing.

00:25:03.962 --> 00:25:04.703
That they would do.

00:25:04.784 --> 00:25:11.432
And, like you said, Brunson smartly got his sixth foul because Tibbs would have just kept him in the game the whole time Probably would have broke his ankle.

00:25:11.453 --> 00:25:12.375
No, we can come back.

00:25:12.394 --> 00:25:13.016
We got this.

00:25:13.016 --> 00:25:14.383
No dude, please.

00:25:14.403 --> 00:25:17.151
Y'all are down, please, we're not going to do it.

00:25:20.384 --> 00:25:30.788
No no that's just a tragedy, man, but okay, well, yeah, so Celtics man can't wait, but this show will be over by the time.

00:25:30.788 --> 00:25:36.769
So we'll, you know, talk about it next week and, if you know, if the Celtics win, we might have an emergency show.

00:25:36.769 --> 00:25:41.892
And you know, if something goes the other way, we'll just wait, talk about it.

00:25:41.892 --> 00:25:43.761
Oh, so we got to wait, but y'all was quick, just wait.

00:25:43.761 --> 00:25:44.323
Speaker 2.

00:25:44.343 --> 00:25:44.623
Speaker 3.

00:25:44.643 --> 00:25:45.002
Talk about it?

00:25:45.002 --> 00:25:45.403
Speaker 4.

00:25:45.403 --> 00:25:45.943
Oh, so we got away.

00:25:45.963 --> 00:25:46.625
But y'all was quick.

00:25:46.625 --> 00:25:49.087
Y'all was quick with the Lakers Day after everybody texted me Speaker.

00:25:49.127 --> 00:25:49.188
2.

00:25:49.188 --> 00:25:52.531
There was a very high demand, so we had to put something together.

00:25:52.571 --> 00:25:52.892
Speaker 3.

00:25:52.892 --> 00:25:53.333
Everybody texted me.

00:25:53.333 --> 00:25:53.952
Hey, what happened?

00:25:53.952 --> 00:25:55.414
Chris oh Speaker 2.

00:25:58.162 --> 00:26:00.926
We couldn't even make it into the studio If the Celtics lose.

00:26:00.926 --> 00:26:04.211
They don't have Tatum and we lost without Curry Y'all lost with healthy.

00:26:04.211 --> 00:26:05.894
Lebron healthy Luka.

00:26:10.046 --> 00:26:11.449
No, not switching my pick oh.

00:26:11.509 --> 00:26:12.192
LeBron was hurt.

00:26:12.420 --> 00:26:13.404
Don't need to switch my pick.

00:26:13.404 --> 00:26:15.186
I'm good, confident.

00:26:15.186 --> 00:26:24.320
Yeah, like I said, we got two Olympians on the team, another guy that could have been an Olympian all-stars, another $300 million guy on the roster.

00:26:24.320 --> 00:26:28.143
We got plenty, Plenty, plenty of ammunition.

00:26:28.143 --> 00:26:30.604
So, all right, minnesota.

00:26:30.604 --> 00:26:37.647
Yeah, a lot of people are on the Minnesota train now all of a sudden, so we got to talk Minnesota when we get to that.

00:26:37.728 --> 00:26:42.971
So next topic, let's go ahead and talk about Game 7.

00:26:42.971 --> 00:26:46.393
All right, nuggets and OKC.

00:26:46.393 --> 00:26:50.974
So I was, you know, wasn't sure if it was going to go seven.

00:26:50.974 --> 00:26:54.616
Look like OKC might go ahead and be able to take care of business early.

00:26:54.616 --> 00:26:59.520
But again, part of a champion Nuggets showed up at home.

00:26:59.520 --> 00:27:03.131
I knew that was going to be a tough one for the OKC Thunder to get to.

00:27:03.131 --> 00:27:07.191
You know they didn't want to go out like that, the crowd represented.

00:27:07.191 --> 00:27:09.307
But that game actually turned.

00:27:10.101 --> 00:27:26.448
And that game turned at the end of the first half because the Thunder were up by about 10, 10-ish points in the last couple of minutes and SGA got his fourth foul, and that was a foul he fouled.

00:27:26.448 --> 00:27:31.671
I don't know what he was doing, why he was reaching like that, but then they just kept.

00:27:31.671 --> 00:27:33.500
He was on the bench.

00:27:33.500 --> 00:27:40.392
I thought they actually should have just kept him in the game at that point because it's like, okay, you're going to, you're letting the game slip anyway.

00:27:40.392 --> 00:27:43.788
The odds of him getting his fifth foul, I think, were very.

00:27:43.788 --> 00:27:49.111
I just would have rolled the dice Because they ended up losing the game because of that anyhow.

00:27:49.111 --> 00:27:51.606
So roll the dice and hopefully you can keep that lead.

00:27:52.223 --> 00:27:56.963
That gave the Nuggets all the momentum when they pretty much erased that lead going into halftime.

00:27:56.963 --> 00:27:59.346
I think Dort hit a three at the end, so they were up three.

00:27:59.346 --> 00:28:04.929
All the momentum had been taken away, but I felt like the game changed at that point.

00:28:04.929 --> 00:28:07.768
So what's your take on this game?

00:28:07.768 --> 00:28:10.207
Seven what do you think is going to happen, man?

00:28:10.207 --> 00:28:11.064
What do we have to look out for?

00:28:11.064 --> 00:28:11.365
Diego?

00:28:11.640 --> 00:28:13.720
Yeah, I got OKC in this game.

00:28:13.720 --> 00:28:19.190
I think they're going to bounce back and so they got the home court, which I think is huge.

00:28:19.190 --> 00:28:27.486
The crowd is going to be hype and I think Jalen Williams is going to play a lot better, because now people have been doubting him a little bit.

00:28:27.486 --> 00:28:30.923
He went 3 for 15 at 6 points.

00:28:30.942 --> 00:28:32.388
He shot tour dates, this whole playoffs.

00:28:35.777 --> 00:28:42.026
It's been rough for him, but I think he's going to show up when needed Chet and the whole crew, sg.

00:28:42.026 --> 00:28:49.170
I think he's going to watch his foul trouble too, because he knows how big of an impact that can leave on OKC.

00:28:49.170 --> 00:28:50.373
So go with him.

00:28:52.003 --> 00:28:53.588
Now we want to talk conspiracy theory.

00:28:53.588 --> 00:28:58.852
Okay, when has SGA or any star player ever gotten four fouls in the first half?

00:28:58.852 --> 00:29:02.449
So we want to talk conspiracy theory.

00:29:02.449 --> 00:29:04.487
Did the NBA want a game seven?

00:29:04.487 --> 00:29:07.648
Because that's what we all really wanted.

00:29:07.648 --> 00:29:16.009
But one more thing before we go to UC Payne Diego the t-shirt game at OKC, man.

00:29:16.009 --> 00:29:17.031
What are they going to do?

00:29:17.031 --> 00:29:21.211
I mean, man, shout out to OKC and their crowd with their t-shirt game.

00:29:21.211 --> 00:29:23.548
Man, how they all have the same shirt.

00:29:23.548 --> 00:29:29.909
I don't see how they coordinate and do that, even when they go with the two-tone one half has blue and the other half has white.

00:29:29.909 --> 00:29:31.791
What do you think they're going to roll out tonight?

00:29:31.880 --> 00:29:33.386
I think they're going to do black and blue.

00:29:33.386 --> 00:29:39.150
Either black and blue or maybe orange-blue, I don't know.

00:29:39.150 --> 00:29:41.253
Yeah, I think orange, they are just orange.

00:29:41.253 --> 00:29:46.395
That'd be fine, yeah that would be fine but I'd predict a black and blue since they did white and blue last game.

00:29:46.455 --> 00:29:48.977
I love that yeah, and I don't even see how.

00:29:48.977 --> 00:29:50.478
Then then, and everyone had me.

00:29:50.478 --> 00:29:56.468
You know, people are all different sizes, so I'm like, all right, how do you coordinate that and make sure everyone has the right size?

00:29:56.528 --> 00:30:01.537
yeah, I'm just fascinated by how, especially because the warriors, they got people sitting front court.

00:30:01.557 --> 00:30:08.060
They don't even have anything associated with warriors oracle arena with them, strength of numbers, shirts Y'all.

00:30:08.060 --> 00:30:14.673
I'm telling you that was every single time watching every Golden State series.

00:30:14.673 --> 00:30:18.029
It was terrifying because you know that was Warriors chance.

00:30:18.029 --> 00:30:20.288
Steph hits a big three, clay heats up.

00:30:20.288 --> 00:30:22.665
It was awe, it was great.

00:30:22.665 --> 00:30:25.050
That is the definition of aura.

00:30:25.050 --> 00:30:26.056
I miss Oracle, though.

00:30:26.237 --> 00:30:27.945
I miss Oracle not anymore.

00:30:29.665 --> 00:30:32.929
Chase Hunter is definitely depleted right down there.

00:30:32.929 --> 00:30:34.003
It's not good.

00:30:34.003 --> 00:30:35.869
I hope they do all white, though.

00:30:35.869 --> 00:30:40.707
For me personally like bring back that whole, like Russ Katie feeling all white.

00:30:40.707 --> 00:30:44.795
Have some towels going shirt and towel All white.

00:30:44.795 --> 00:30:45.588
Okay, yeah, have some towels going.

00:30:45.588 --> 00:30:47.903
Yeah, just have a white outfit, have a shirt and towel.

00:30:47.923 --> 00:30:50.369
Yeah, it'll be hot.

00:30:50.369 --> 00:30:51.192
It'll be hot, all right.

00:30:51.192 --> 00:30:52.645
What's your take on this game?

00:30:52.645 --> 00:30:54.499
I think you already kind of touched on it, yeah.

00:30:55.121 --> 00:31:01.148
I mean the true battle for the MVP at this point and everybody's mind, regardless of who ends up winning it.

00:31:01.148 --> 00:31:07.467
I mean, this is the defining performance of who everybody's going to view the MVP this year.

00:31:07.467 --> 00:31:15.608
Because you already see people, especially after Jokic's second 40-point game this series, where it was like, oh, he's the best player, but his team sucks.

00:31:15.608 --> 00:31:20.903
And now his team finally shows up and everybody all of a sudden conveniently forgets that Everybody's like, oh, but Jokic is still.

00:31:20.903 --> 00:31:25.232
It's like we can't have it both ways with this MVP argument.

00:31:25.232 --> 00:31:27.868
So, Shea, don't foul bro.

00:31:27.868 --> 00:31:32.663
This is the time to show up, man, Because you're going up against Game 7.

00:31:32.759 --> 00:31:45.470
I think that, like I think, Game 5 and Jokic starting to hit those Jokic-type shots, finally cueing the thunder into like, oh, this is what we actually have to face and deal with.

00:31:45.470 --> 00:31:48.109
I'm excited.

00:31:48.109 --> 00:31:50.152
I do think again, NBA conspiracy theory.

00:31:50.152 --> 00:31:51.449
They know how good these playoffs have been.

00:31:51.449 --> 00:31:52.826
They know how good this Nuggets.

00:31:52.826 --> 00:31:56.292
You gotta extend the series with two MVP candidates at least.

00:31:56.292 --> 00:32:06.490
I feel like you know, Kate, there's no reason not to do that, even with celtics knicks.

00:32:06.490 --> 00:32:07.736
I mean, why wouldn't you extend that boston new york rivalry?

00:32:07.736 --> 00:32:15.727
So hey, and if silver is pressing the right buttons after the all, after the whole ratings discourse discussion earlier this season, the playoffs have been really fire, so shout out to him yeah, yeah, they have been fired.

00:32:15.747 --> 00:32:22.740
I just hope they don't, like like last year, end with a dud, yeah, and that's where you can really see the injuries come into play.

00:32:22.740 --> 00:32:31.673
So the injuries, you know they have altered some series but it's still been entertaining and exciting to see, especially having a good game every night.

00:32:31.673 --> 00:32:41.559
But at some point it takes its toll and we could possibly see, depending on how things go, the finals finals, unfortunately is where we might realize.

00:32:41.559 --> 00:33:08.510
I hope not, but that's where we might realize the you know, playoffs not living up, because last year was that was like it does the way it seems like the Western Conference semifinals and finals are like the NBA finals this year and so I don't know what can be better than this OK denver series that definitely, this definitely feels like the nba finals in a lot of ways, and then after that it's like, whoever the wolves play, like that's.

00:33:08.972 --> 00:33:11.682
Ah, I'm excited yeah, that's uh.

00:33:11.721 --> 00:33:15.355
We'll have to touch on that in a little bit when we talk sga and ant.

00:33:15.355 --> 00:33:18.587
But uh, yeah, because a lot of people are now jumping on the minnesota train.

00:33:18.587 --> 00:33:25.631
Now, all of a sudden, their team is so complete and no holes when we were all throwing darts at it before.

00:33:25.631 --> 00:33:32.356
Now, all of a sudden they're this complete team because they beat a Steph Curry-less, you know, warrior squad.

00:33:32.356 --> 00:33:37.896
So I think there's a little bit of recency bias going on there, but we'll talk about that in a minute.

00:33:37.896 --> 00:33:43.365
All right, but next let's go ahead and talk about our Indiana Pacers.

00:33:43.365 --> 00:33:45.071
All right, indiana Pacers.

00:33:45.071 --> 00:33:52.307
There are some people on this set who have been extremely critical of the Indiana Pacers.

00:33:52.326 --> 00:33:53.692
Please note that possessive pronoun.

00:33:53.692 --> 00:33:59.932
This man just said our Indiana Pacers, let's watch back a couple episodes.

00:33:59.951 --> 00:34:01.675
real quick people, let's hold on.

00:34:03.065 --> 00:34:03.606
I'll let you cook.

00:34:03.606 --> 00:34:04.269
I'll let you cook.

00:34:04.269 --> 00:34:05.192
Be a fan Be a fan.

00:34:06.045 --> 00:34:12.233
Pacers beat the Cavs or the Cavs were depleted, beat them in five games, won the other series.

00:34:12.233 --> 00:34:15.411
I believe they won that in five, so they won five-five.

00:34:15.411 --> 00:34:18.387
Now they are in what's up, johnny-o.

00:34:18.387 --> 00:34:24.637
Yeah, so Indiana is here, and so have you guys overlooked them.

00:34:24.637 --> 00:34:28.608
You guys, man, I don't remember being.

00:34:28.608 --> 00:34:29.429
Why are they getting lucky?

00:34:29.429 --> 00:34:31.771
We see some comments that say mixed bag so far.

00:34:31.771 --> 00:34:32.393
Hold on.

00:34:32.413 --> 00:34:38.181
I don't remember being the only one saying that they were a sleeper team, but everybody looked at me like I had a chicken you did.

00:34:40.204 --> 00:34:40.824
You did that they were a sleeper team.

00:34:40.766 --> 00:34:42.184
but everybody looked at me like I had a chicken, Like I developed a second head on the side of my neck.

00:34:43.045 --> 00:34:44.231
Everybody was looking at me crazy.

00:34:44.231 --> 00:34:48.746
Now, was I slightly overrating Tyrese Halliburton at this point?

00:34:48.746 --> 00:34:51.295
He didn't realize that they have a bunch of killers on that team.

00:34:51.295 --> 00:34:55.208
Pascal Siakam is one of the better playoff performers right now in the East.

00:34:55.208 --> 00:35:03.054
Miles Turner, even though he's all in trade rumors every single year, regardless of the playoffs, he's going to show up, defend, well, hit his threes.

00:35:03.054 --> 00:35:07.333
Andrew Nibhard like all of a sudden becomes one of the best shooters we've ever seen.

00:35:07.333 --> 00:35:09.730
Obie Toppin plays really well Like they have.

00:35:10.293 --> 00:35:18.110
They're so well-rounded where Tyrese doesn't necessarily have to play that Trae Young role of like oh, I have to shoot and be the main distributor of the offense.

00:35:18.110 --> 00:35:24.847
It's like all I gotta do is get everything set up for everybody else to eat and then, like, pick my spots in the big moments to win.

00:35:24.847 --> 00:35:26.530
So I like that formula.

00:35:26.530 --> 00:35:32.438
Now it is boring because everybody's like oh well, there's not like a star star, it's like, it's not like it's grabbing me.

00:35:32.438 --> 00:35:35.728
It's not like a name, you feel, because pascal siakam doesn't have the same name.

00:35:35.728 --> 00:35:42.976
Value ofalen Brunson or Carl Anthony Towns, right, but they're such a good team, they're very well-rounded.

00:35:42.976 --> 00:35:47.896
And again, celtics fans during that sweep last year were like, hey, these games were close.

00:35:47.896 --> 00:35:57.175
So also shout out to my friend DJ for getting the series right, because he did predict Pacers at five and I looked at him crazy before Big shout out.

00:35:57.315 --> 00:35:58.445
He was Big shout out.

00:35:58.445 --> 00:35:59.670
Yeah, yeah, he was on that.

00:35:59.670 --> 00:36:02.791
He was on that for sure yeah, big, big shout out, okay.

00:36:03.253 --> 00:36:05.619
So, diego, did you overestimate.

00:36:06.121 --> 00:36:13.621
Uh, I'm sorry, underestimate the pacers man uh, no, um, you said the pacers are a sleeper team.

00:36:13.621 --> 00:36:14.583
Well, I'm still.

00:36:14.583 --> 00:36:15.304
I'm still asleep.

00:36:15.304 --> 00:36:16.646
I'm not looking at you, all right man, I'm still asleep.

00:36:16.646 --> 00:36:19.010
All I'm not looking at you, all right man, I'm still asleep.

00:36:19.512 --> 00:36:20.594
All right, Conference finals.

00:36:20.594 --> 00:36:21.655
You're asleep, All right bro.

00:36:21.675 --> 00:36:25.447
Yes, I am Still asleep, all right, yeah, I mean so.

00:36:25.447 --> 00:36:34.856
They beat the Milwaukee Bucks, relying on Kyle Kuzma to step up and Dame tore his Achilles an injured team.

00:36:34.856 --> 00:36:36.447
Then they go to the next round.

00:36:36.447 --> 00:36:42.974
They go into the Cavs without three starters and two all-stars, Win that everyone's going all crazy.

00:36:42.974 --> 00:36:45.990
Then they get an easy ride to the conference finals.

00:36:45.990 --> 00:36:49.632
It's just, I just don't see it.

00:36:49.632 --> 00:36:55.391
Tyrese Halliburton just doing all types of crazy passes, 360 passes.

00:36:55.431 --> 00:36:56.385
You said he's swinging the ball.

00:36:56.405 --> 00:36:57.711
He's definitely swinging the ball.

00:36:58.324 --> 00:36:59.010
He's definitely swinging it.

00:36:59.010 --> 00:36:59.418
He's definitely swinging the ball.

00:36:59.418 --> 00:36:59.784
He's definitely swinging it.

00:36:59.784 --> 00:37:01.371
He seems like a great teammate.

00:37:01.646 --> 00:37:03.663
I think everybody would love to play with him.

00:37:03.663 --> 00:37:06.213
Oh yeah, he feeds everybody the rock for sure.

00:37:06.293 --> 00:37:08.532
He would Shout out to Julian.

00:37:08.532 --> 00:37:10.630
Can we bring that comment back up?

00:37:10.630 --> 00:37:11.213
I did see that.

00:37:11.213 --> 00:37:11.425
Yeah.

00:37:11.425 --> 00:37:13.833
So, pacers fan, thank you for checking us out.

00:37:13.833 --> 00:37:14.869
We really appreciate you.

00:37:14.869 --> 00:37:21.927
So, julian, you got to be with us because we like to mess with the Pacers, but it's all in fun.

00:37:21.927 --> 00:37:22.211
So I don't take it personally.

00:37:22.211 --> 00:37:25.577
We like to mess with the Pacers and have fun with them, but we really appreciate you checking us out.

00:37:25.577 --> 00:37:26.405
And they are dangerous.

00:37:26.405 --> 00:37:27.610
They are a dangerous team.

00:37:27.610 --> 00:37:28.686
I will give them that.

00:37:28.686 --> 00:37:30.967
I've given them a lot of grief here.

00:37:30.967 --> 00:37:37.514
I've talked a lot of trash Some I meant, some I didn't but we'll see, man, we'll see.

00:37:37.514 --> 00:37:41.231
It's going to be interesting to see what they do in the next round.

00:37:41.231 --> 00:37:54.586
It's interesting If, for some reason, I just have this funny feeling if the Knicks can somehow knock the Celtics off because they don't have Tatum, I could definitely see the Pacers beating the Knicks.

00:37:55.168 --> 00:37:58.608
I could definitely see that for a couple of reasons.

00:37:58.608 --> 00:38:02.547
I mean one yeah, the Pacers play really good defense, so they definitely do that.

00:38:02.547 --> 00:38:06.706
But then also Brunson this is not to take anything away from the Pacers.

00:38:06.706 --> 00:38:07.650
This truly is not a shot.

00:38:07.650 --> 00:38:11.873
I'm worried about Brunson, with him continuing to tweak that ankle.

00:38:11.873 --> 00:38:14.112
He cannot keep doing that every single game.

00:38:14.112 --> 00:38:16.248
One of these days he's not going to come back.

00:38:16.248 --> 00:38:19.353
So I think the Pacers have a lot going for them.

00:38:19.353 --> 00:38:20.474
They have a lot on their side.

00:38:20.474 --> 00:38:28.295
They definitely, you know, have been disrespected and so they've got a lot of motivation and a lot to play for.

00:38:28.295 --> 00:38:33.375
So I would not be shocked, especially by the Knicks do their thing.

00:38:33.375 --> 00:38:35.451
I would not be shocked to see them in the finals.

00:38:35.451 --> 00:38:36.554
I wouldn't.

00:38:36.554 --> 00:38:37.036
That would be.

00:38:37.036 --> 00:38:38.976
That would be really, really interesting.

00:38:39.621 --> 00:38:42.853
I could see something like last year happening with that series.

00:38:45.188 --> 00:38:46.666
That'll be a trip Alright.

00:38:46.666 --> 00:38:56.152
Well, hey, man, but they're in the Eastern Conference Finals back-to-back A lot of teams that maybe aren't as stacked from top to bottom.

00:38:56.152 --> 00:39:01.635
When they do make that run, they don't come back, like the Hawks that year.

00:39:01.635 --> 00:39:03.490
We haven't heard from them since, not at all.

00:39:03.490 --> 00:39:06.813
You know what I mean, so credit to them.

00:39:06.813 --> 00:39:10.293
It does take a lot to come back, even if you have some things bounce your way.

00:39:10.293 --> 00:39:12.311
You know got to give them credit.

00:39:12.311 --> 00:39:12.753
So we'll see.

00:39:12.753 --> 00:39:16.168
The biggest question is going to be if they do make it to the finals.

00:39:16.168 --> 00:39:21.027
If they do make it to the finals, does dad get the comeback Now?

00:39:21.108 --> 00:39:22.076
the bird is down.

00:39:22.076 --> 00:39:28.635
Listen, you got, even though it was bad, just like what he said, what he said to Yadis.

00:39:28.635 --> 00:39:31.460
You gotta let your son hoop in the finals.

00:39:32.306 --> 00:39:34.273
That's a family dream, right there you feel me.

00:39:34.985 --> 00:39:41.715
We can talk about how out of pocket that was to just jump into Yadis' face and like talk all that trash and stuff, very disrespectful.

00:39:42.159 --> 00:39:43.849
I think he'll stay quiet if he can.

00:39:43.849 --> 00:39:46.873
Yeah, like shoot what's up, fellow yeah.

00:39:48.485 --> 00:39:49.148
What's up?

00:39:49.148 --> 00:39:50.231
Just doing nothing?

00:39:51.646 --> 00:39:52.650
I wouldn't even say a word.

00:39:52.965 --> 00:39:54.492
I'll just be like good job For real.

00:39:55.226 --> 00:39:56.331
Hit a golf clap real quick.

00:39:56.351 --> 00:40:02.771
You feel me he will be on his best he will be on his best, it's a BGA tour, it will be on his best behavior, all right, okay, cool.

00:40:02.771 --> 00:40:03.512
Well, let's get.

00:40:03.512 --> 00:40:05.253
I know y'all are ready for this man.

00:40:05.253 --> 00:40:09.958
Let's talk a little bit of NFL and then we'll come back to NBA.

00:40:09.958 --> 00:40:13.181
But let's talk about the NFL schedule.

00:40:13.181 --> 00:40:20.067
All right, some of these big games that are coming up, the schedule has been released.

00:40:20.067 --> 00:40:24.036
Uh, man, and I'm just blown away by all that every single team does to announce the schedule like they're.

00:40:24.036 --> 00:40:26.748
Just, I tell you, man, the nfl mean, there's no better.

00:40:26.748 --> 00:40:31.146
The nba used to be the ultimate marketing machine and the way they marketed.

00:40:31.146 --> 00:40:33.391
But who markets better than the nfl?

00:40:33.391 --> 00:40:36.076
Yes, I mean, man, my, my goodness.

00:40:36.076 --> 00:40:37.117
But what?

00:40:37.117 --> 00:40:38.367
What are you excited for, diego?

00:40:39.228 --> 00:40:39.429
man.

00:40:39.429 --> 00:40:48.123
The game I have my eye on in particular is Week 12 Monday Night Football Carolina Panthers versus San Francisco 49ers.

00:40:48.123 --> 00:40:53.056
You know this is the first time in seven years we have had our own Monday Night Football game.

00:40:53.056 --> 00:40:54.358
You know it's really crazy.

00:40:54.358 --> 00:40:56.730
Coming off a year we had no primetime games.

00:40:56.730 --> 00:41:05.288
This is big for us and we're going to go into San Francisco overpaid Brock Purdy and Christian McCaffrey.

00:41:05.288 --> 00:41:08.672
We're the ones that built Christian McCaffrey up.

00:41:08.672 --> 00:41:11.536
Christian McCaffrey would not be the same without us.

00:41:12.077 --> 00:41:14.438
I mean sure we're not the same without him.

00:41:14.438 --> 00:41:15.521
So I don't know what?

00:41:19.025 --> 00:41:20.027
Yeah, well, everybody knows that he came from us.

00:41:20.027 --> 00:41:26.670
So you know we start, you know we're going to go in there and we're going to beat him, and that's going to be a thing Everybody's going to be excited to.

00:41:26.670 --> 00:41:31.733
After Monday, come from school work and, like man, turn on the Carolina Panthers game.

00:41:32.326 --> 00:41:34.253
You know that's how it's going to be Now.

00:41:34.253 --> 00:41:34.795
Are we sure?

00:41:34.795 --> 00:41:36.949
Have we verified that this is not a doubleheader?

00:41:37.289 --> 00:41:39.313
No, it is not a doubleheader.

00:41:39.313 --> 00:41:40.416
Not a doubleheader.

00:41:40.717 --> 00:41:43.130
It's a solo game, solo Solo Sunday game.

00:41:44.034 --> 00:41:44.925
Monday night football game.

00:41:44.925 --> 00:41:45.632
I mean yeah.

00:41:45.652 --> 00:41:46.056
Monday night.

00:41:46.056 --> 00:41:47.612
Yeah, because we know it's not Sunday night.

00:41:47.612 --> 00:41:52.112
Because, yeah, if they ever get on Sunday night, because the Sunday night is the new Monday night.

00:41:52.112 --> 00:41:59.259
So the true, true, true, true game of the week is the Sunday night game, but still not going to take nothing away from the Panthers.

00:41:59.278 --> 00:42:01.760
I've never seen the Panthers playing a Sunday night game.

00:42:01.760 --> 00:42:03.402
Yeah, I don't know if that's ever happened.

00:42:05.608 --> 00:42:08.353
Brandon, that might be a job for you, Brandon.

00:42:08.405 --> 00:42:16.288
You have to let us know if the Panthers ever played on a Sunday night, Well probably in the Cam days, because I think I do remember them playing Seattle actually.

00:42:16.288 --> 00:42:17.590
Yeah, nah yeah.

00:42:17.590 --> 00:42:20.697
So I think they did in the Cam days, but yeah, it's been about 10 years.

00:42:20.717 --> 00:42:21.719
Cam days was the last days, yeah.

00:42:23.746 --> 00:42:31.253
We're coming up on a decade of that man, which is crazy, Because I saw an old Panthers highlight 2015 looked like 2005 clips.

00:42:31.253 --> 00:42:33.286
I was like, oh, I am getting old now.

00:42:33.286 --> 00:42:34.286
That is scary.

00:42:34.286 --> 00:42:46.574
But yeah, I'm actually most excited for Ravens Bills week one Because you know, listen, you know our great MVP for our discussion Week one.

00:42:46.594 --> 00:42:49.175
That's week one, Yep week one, Sunday night.

00:42:49.715 --> 00:42:51.757
Sunday night is going to get real spicy.

00:42:51.757 --> 00:42:55.157
Listen, let Lamar go to Buffalo.

00:42:55.157 --> 00:42:57.619
Win that one, I'm already.

00:42:58.880 --> 00:43:01.342
You know the season is the regular season.

00:43:01.561 --> 00:43:02.141
I got you.

00:43:02.141 --> 00:43:03.443
It is the regular season.

00:43:03.563 --> 00:43:06.612
He'd probably win the MVP, which means he's probably not going to win the.

00:43:06.632 --> 00:43:08.617
Super Bowl yeah, that is true.

00:43:08.617 --> 00:43:16.989
I have heard Lamar is in the lead for the MVP right now for the regular season, so yeah, Ravens by 30.

00:43:16.989 --> 00:43:23.286
I think, if he at least throws for 200 yards and gets a touchdown, I think he will be in the lead for MVP.

00:43:23.286 --> 00:43:24.347
Yes, for sure.

00:43:24.447 --> 00:43:26.387
That's a lot of shade right there.

00:43:26.387 --> 00:43:30.490
All right, don't get me started on this one right now.

00:43:30.490 --> 00:43:31.771
Don't get me started on this one right now.

00:43:31.771 --> 00:43:32.771
We already have a lake of stuff.

00:43:32.771 --> 00:43:41.157
I got but Ravens-Bills and then for me the Eagles-Commanders matchups during the next.

00:43:41.177 --> 00:43:48.400
Because again, two great teams I mean again Commander-Surprise team how do they build on that?

00:43:48.400 --> 00:43:53.382
How do they build against going up against the Super Bowl team in their division?

00:43:53.382 --> 00:43:58.889
And then on top of that you see the comebacks that Jaden Daniels has had versus them.

00:43:58.889 --> 00:44:00.474
Yeah, especially last year.

00:44:00.474 --> 00:44:03.514
I'm very excited to see those matchups as well.

00:44:03.514 --> 00:44:06.353
But, yeah, ravensville is in both the Eagles-Commanders games.

00:44:06.353 --> 00:44:07.777
For me I'm most excited to see.

00:44:07.797 --> 00:44:09.650
Okay, yeah, I'm excited to see that.

00:44:09.650 --> 00:44:13.076
Well, brianna, we got to bring our homegirl back.

00:44:13.076 --> 00:44:14.530
Princess of Pick'em Pros.

00:44:14.530 --> 00:44:16.427
Brianna, what's going on, brie?

00:44:16.427 --> 00:44:19.713
Nothing much all right, all right.

00:44:19.713 --> 00:44:23.052
So, uh, yeah, now you got now Brie, we know you got about five teams.

00:44:23.052 --> 00:44:26.505
All right, we know you have many teams from your world travel.

00:44:26.505 --> 00:44:31.835
So I believe you got the Falcons, you got the Lions, you got the uh Cardinals.

00:44:31.835 --> 00:44:32.878
I mean, who else?

00:44:32.918 --> 00:44:40.125
you have Panthers no not the Panthers that was a quick consideration, that was a quick consideration.

00:44:41.148 --> 00:44:41.672
That was a quick.

00:44:42.454 --> 00:44:43.143
I'm not hesitant.

00:44:43.927 --> 00:44:49.364
What I feel so that's three strong ones that I mentioned.

00:44:49.364 --> 00:44:50.603
Who am I missing?

00:44:52.630 --> 00:44:54.356
it's not five, it's just the three.

00:44:54.356 --> 00:44:58.704
But the falcons are like less than the lions and the cardinals.

00:44:58.945 --> 00:45:01.764
Lions, cardinals, falcons are like less than, okay, lions and the cardinals see okay, okay, lions, cardinals, okay.

00:45:01.764 --> 00:45:04.938
So then falcons are just a little yeah, they're just like.

00:45:04.998 --> 00:45:07.568
It's like they're playing against like a team and I'm just watching it.

00:45:07.568 --> 00:45:09.472
I'm gonna go for the falcons gotcha.

00:45:09.972 --> 00:45:11.898
Okay, all right, gotcha, gotcha.

00:45:11.898 --> 00:45:12.626
So what?

00:45:12.626 --> 00:45:13.788
What has your attention?

00:45:13.788 --> 00:45:15.391
Uh, as far as this schedule?

00:45:16.233 --> 00:45:19.739
um, well, definitely week two, the Eagles versus the Chiefs.

00:45:19.739 --> 00:45:24.793
That would be a good matchup, again since the Eagles beat them in the Super Bowl.

00:45:24.793 --> 00:45:29.655
But also, diego, going back to saying Brock Purdy overpaid.

00:45:29.655 --> 00:45:32.952
He's from my hometown here in Arizona.

00:45:33.333 --> 00:45:34.076
Don't hate on him.

00:45:36.128 --> 00:45:37.331
Yeah, actually fun fact.

00:45:37.431 --> 00:45:38.936
Yeah, don't hate, I did not know that.

00:45:42.947 --> 00:45:46.954
Yeah, didn't know that 49ers, but I like rock pretty okay.

00:45:46.954 --> 00:45:55.335
His high school was like not too far from me, so all right, all right, well, that's oh, and another game.

00:45:55.335 --> 00:46:02.396
It's also the chiefs, because I hate the chiefs not hate, I guess, but you them against the Bills, week nine.

00:46:02.396 --> 00:46:05.851
I think that will be a good matchup because the Bills are a really good team.

00:46:05.851 --> 00:46:06.994
Yeah, yeah.

00:46:07.335 --> 00:46:08.958
Yeah, I was thinking that was going to go.

00:46:09.585 --> 00:46:10.590
We already know how that goes.

00:46:10.590 --> 00:46:12.389
Yeah, we'll see where that do.

00:46:12.389 --> 00:46:13.594
You know where that one is?

00:46:15.429 --> 00:46:16.373
I think it's in Buffalo.

00:46:17.045 --> 00:46:17.385
Okay.

00:46:17.768 --> 00:46:19.592
Yeah, well, that would be a good one.

00:46:19.753 --> 00:46:20.295
We know how to.

00:46:20.605 --> 00:46:22.028
Yeah, yeah, yeah.

00:46:22.028 --> 00:46:23.813
You need the Bills, you need the playoffs.

00:46:23.833 --> 00:46:25.498
You need the playoffs, you need the Chiefs.

00:46:26.025 --> 00:46:28.250
Well, the Lions are winning the Super Bowl this year.

00:46:28.250 --> 00:46:29.652
Okay, so let's yeah.

00:46:29.733 --> 00:46:30.393
I actually agree.

00:46:30.474 --> 00:46:31.096
Calm down.

00:46:31.096 --> 00:46:32.157
Yeah, don't take the.

00:46:32.197 --> 00:46:32.559
Panthers.

00:46:32.559 --> 00:46:37.221
I could definitely see them being the Panthers.

00:46:37.221 --> 00:46:40.123
Really only competition in the season, what?

00:46:40.222 --> 00:46:46.242
man there you go that's so sad.

00:46:46.242 --> 00:47:05.117
I'll give the Lions the edge yeah, the Lions slight itch slight itch the Lions actually play the Ravens in week 3, so so two things I want to cover while we have everybody here.

00:47:05.518 --> 00:47:22.956
Um, one is the ravens brutal schedule to start their season, and then the bears want to talk a little bit about the bears, because I think we got somebody on this set that's starting to get really high on caleb william and the bears, and then we can also touch on how Caleb didn't want to go to the Bears.

00:47:22.956 --> 00:47:24.992
So those are three things overall.

00:47:24.992 --> 00:47:26.590
So let's start with the Ravens.

00:47:26.590 --> 00:47:27.588
Start with the Ravens.

00:47:27.588 --> 00:47:30.295
Homer here, lamar Jackson, apologies, c-pain, what up?

00:47:30.295 --> 00:47:34.137
So, man, dude, y'all going to go?

00:47:34.137 --> 00:47:37.009
What are you guys going to go to start the season?

00:47:37.009 --> 00:47:37.469
I guess what.

00:47:37.469 --> 00:47:39.012
First six games.

00:47:39.072 --> 00:47:39.994
Is that what's?

00:47:40.014 --> 00:47:41.918
so brutal, let me pull it up.

00:47:45.005 --> 00:47:46.853
We want a prediction on the record of what's going to happen.

00:47:46.853 --> 00:47:54.612
While you look that up, we got a question what do we think about the Lions playing Thanksgiving and Christmas?

00:47:54.612 --> 00:47:56.351
I didn't realize they were playing Christmas.

00:47:56.666 --> 00:47:57.268
I didn't either.

00:47:57.268 --> 00:47:57.690
I knew they.

00:47:58.565 --> 00:47:59.159
I haven't seen the Christmas schedule yet.

00:47:59.159 --> 00:47:59.394
Yeah, I didn't realize they were playing Christmas.

00:47:59.394 --> 00:47:59.422
Yeah, I didn't either.

00:47:59.422 --> 00:47:59.407
I knew they.

00:47:59.407 --> 00:48:00.282
I haven't seen the Christmas schedule yet.

00:48:00.282 --> 00:48:04.193
Yeah, I haven't seen it, so I know the Chiefs played Christmas?

00:48:04.485 --> 00:48:06.971
Yes, but who knows if they play the Broncos?

00:48:08.085 --> 00:48:10.452
The Lions play the Vikings on Christmas.

00:48:11.054 --> 00:48:13.650
Ooh, ooh, okay, oh, yeah, yeah, that'll be good.

00:48:13.650 --> 00:48:14.465
Yeah, yeah, yeah.

00:48:14.465 --> 00:48:16.068
So thank you for that question.

00:48:16.068 --> 00:48:18.271
Yeah, yeah, I love it.

00:48:18.411 --> 00:48:18.811
I love it.

00:48:18.811 --> 00:48:19.753
It's about the Vikings.

00:48:20.253 --> 00:48:21.135
Yeah, I love it.

00:48:21.135 --> 00:48:23.577
Cowboys also play on Thanksgiving and Christmas.

00:48:23.898 --> 00:48:25.181
Yeah, yeah.

00:48:26.226 --> 00:48:28.974
Oh, wow, man, there's going to be good matchups this year.

00:48:28.994 --> 00:48:29.735
Right, great matchups.

00:48:29.735 --> 00:48:31.150
So yeah, great question, joe.

00:48:31.150 --> 00:48:36.528
And so yeah, it looks like the NFL is continuing to take Christmas from the NBA.

00:48:36.909 --> 00:48:37.969
Yes, for sure.

00:48:38.291 --> 00:48:40.391
Especially with these teams that are going to be playing.

00:48:40.391 --> 00:48:42.873
My goodness, so I'm not sure what.

00:48:42.873 --> 00:48:45.255
So last year Christmas was on a Wednesday.

00:48:45.416 --> 00:48:47.478
Yeah, it was Thursday, so I don't know if it's.

00:48:47.498 --> 00:48:48.719
Thursday or if it's Friday.

00:48:48.719 --> 00:48:52.422
I'm not sure if we're leaping yet or not, but yeah, that's going to be.

00:48:53.244 --> 00:48:57.070
They're getting their get back for having the Luka trade right before the Super Bowl.

00:48:57.070 --> 00:48:57.992
Oh that's right.

00:48:58.253 --> 00:49:00.217
That's right.

00:49:00.217 --> 00:49:04.914
Keep on messing with the NBA, all right, they're going to pull something else out.

00:49:04.934 --> 00:49:08.512
Lebron get traded, oh wow, wow, wow, wow.

00:49:08.552 --> 00:49:09.335
Too far that's right.

00:49:09.335 --> 00:49:11.909
Let's not do that one.

00:49:11.929 --> 00:49:12.992
That's right.

00:49:12.992 --> 00:49:13.454
That's right.

00:49:13.454 --> 00:49:15.472
Opening weekend, LeBron might retire.

00:49:16.525 --> 00:49:18.998
We're going to take all the headlines away, Then kid LeBron might retire.

00:49:19.018 --> 00:49:27.653
We're going to take all the headlines away, then you would just see Chris falling to his knees and crying because, oh, that would hurt All right, I'll be fine.

00:49:27.653 --> 00:49:30.690
Will I?

00:49:30.690 --> 00:49:31.813
I don't think I will.

00:49:34.329 --> 00:49:37.431
All right, so Ravens, how are the Ravens going to start this year off 0-6?

00:49:39.590 --> 00:49:40.096
2-4.

00:49:40.096 --> 00:49:42.090
Okay, calm down, calm down.

00:49:42.090 --> 00:49:46.135
So first we got Ravens-Bills Toss-up.

00:49:46.135 --> 00:49:48.753
I give the Ravens in the revenge game.

00:49:48.753 --> 00:49:50.985
Okay, browns, ravens.

00:49:51.347 --> 00:49:57.327
Ironically this is where I have one of their weird losses, yeah.

00:49:57.447 --> 00:49:58.108
I can see that.

00:49:58.289 --> 00:50:01.275
I would say they're going to lose the Browns, which might be crazy.

00:50:01.275 --> 00:50:02.458
Okay, the Lions.

00:50:02.458 --> 00:50:04.702
Oh gosh, I didn't make it back.

00:50:04.702 --> 00:50:05.324
I thought about that.

00:50:06.025 --> 00:50:06.869
No, not at all.

00:50:06.869 --> 00:50:08.568
All right, I bought more of that one.

00:50:08.568 --> 00:50:13.030
The Chiefs oh godly, oh yeah, I believe that they can beat the Chiefs.

00:50:13.030 --> 00:50:20.070
The Texans they whooped about Christmas.

00:50:20.070 --> 00:50:21.862
The Rams that might be a loss, at best 4-2, 3-3.

00:50:21.862 --> 00:50:22.708
That's all I'm saying.

00:50:22.708 --> 00:50:24.686
It is a very rough start.

00:50:24.686 --> 00:50:26.253
I don't know who they ticked off.

00:50:26.253 --> 00:50:29.693
I don't know what happened in the NFL League office.

00:50:29.693 --> 00:50:31.693
Who made who mad?

00:50:31.693 --> 00:50:39.271
Because these are all playoff teams outside of the Browns and inexplicably they just end up losing to the Browns randomly.

00:50:39.271 --> 00:50:40.849
It's very weird.

00:50:40.849 --> 00:50:46.728
So yeah, let's see, let's see a perfect time.

00:50:46.748 --> 00:50:49.315
He happens to Cleveland For real.

00:50:49.315 --> 00:50:51.070
I have no idea.

00:50:51.190 --> 00:50:54.393
I think 4-2 at best 4-2 would be amazing.

00:50:56.309 --> 00:50:58.215
At worst, I'm going to say 2-4.

00:50:58.525 --> 00:50:59.030
At worst 2-4.

00:50:59.030 --> 00:50:59.735
Didn two and four.

00:50:59.735 --> 00:51:00.824
Yeah, at worst two and four, three and three.

00:51:01.646 --> 00:51:03.193
Didn't they start off this year 0-2?

00:51:03.505 --> 00:51:05.775
They started off 0-2, and then they went 8-5.

00:51:07.349 --> 00:51:14.550
I can see something like that happening, okay, so let's talk, because we're getting a little short on time, so we'll pick up a little bit here.

00:51:14.550 --> 00:51:22.985
We've got Bears, all right, so you're paying.

00:51:22.985 --> 00:51:23.989
You're high on caleb williams and the bears.

00:51:23.989 --> 00:51:30.175
If you know, he didn't want to go chicago, all right, but now they got, you know, a guy from, uh, detroit yeah, over there is their coach.

00:51:30.175 --> 00:51:32.945
So why, why are you so high on caleb and listen?

00:51:33.666 --> 00:51:47.710
so, after re-watching his highlights, looking up his stats from last year, he threw over 3,500 yards, 20 touchdowns, less than six interceptions with the worst offensive line and getting sacked 68 times more than any quarterback in the league.

00:51:47.710 --> 00:51:49.650
They upgraded their offensive line.

00:51:49.650 --> 00:51:53.876
You actually have a dude who knows how to operate a functional offense.

00:51:53.876 --> 00:51:58.855
So the fact that Caleb was able to do that with again everybody can talk about how good their skill position players are.

00:51:58.855 --> 00:52:02.092
That coaching staff was horrible, in fact.

00:52:02.092 --> 00:52:09.632
The reason why he didn't even want to go to the Bears is because, as one of the great cities in the NFL where quarterbacks go to die Cleveland and Chicago.

00:52:09.632 --> 00:52:16.456
Historically if it would be Jim McMahon and Bernie Kosar, the two greatest quarterbacks of those organizations Not a great list.

00:52:16.456 --> 00:52:26.494
So the fact that Ben Johnson has faith in Caleb I mean you talked about how Caleb's going to be this year the first Bears quarterback to throw for over 4,000 guards which crazy stat.

00:52:27.045 --> 00:52:28.652
I can't even believe that.

00:52:30.170 --> 00:52:32.949
But again, they have a very solid defense.

00:52:32.949 --> 00:52:42.090
Ben Johnson, because you've been hyped as the offensive wonder kid, as the next great offensive line in the NFL, you're going to want to prove it this year.

00:52:42.090 --> 00:52:49.413
Again, you're in the division with your old team, so why not stick it to them a couple times and be like hey, this is my show now.

00:52:49.413 --> 00:52:52.675
Thank you for leading me up, but now I'm the guy now.

00:52:52.675 --> 00:52:55.795
So I really like how Chicago could be this year.

00:52:56.105 --> 00:52:56.586
They're my sleeper team.

00:52:56.586 --> 00:52:57.130
They're your sleeper team.

00:52:57.130 --> 00:52:57.793
They, chicago, could be this year.

00:52:57.793 --> 00:52:58.838
They're my sleeper team, they're your sleeper team.

00:52:58.838 --> 00:52:59.320
They're my sleeper team.

00:52:59.320 --> 00:53:00.264
You definitely have them going to the playoffs.

00:53:00.565 --> 00:53:01.889
Yes, it sounds like they're your sleeper team.

00:53:01.889 --> 00:53:03.474
Wild card, wild card.

00:53:03.885 --> 00:53:05.672
Bree, what do you think about the Bears this year?

00:53:05.672 --> 00:53:07.211
Do you have any thoughts yet on them?

00:53:07.744 --> 00:53:13.494
I mean, I don't want to say too much because I'm a Lions fan, but my sister likes the Bears.

00:53:13.494 --> 00:53:24.070
I know what happened there, but, um, I feel like they could possibly do good this year, but not to beat the lions?

00:53:24.070 --> 00:53:35.326
Obviously because yeah, I mean they took ben johnson from us so they're not gonna get a win out of us either, but I mean I think they would do good because caleb williams, he is a good quarterback.

00:53:35.326 --> 00:53:39.054
He just needs to pull it all together with a good team, I guess.

00:53:39.054 --> 00:53:40.255
So yeah.

00:53:41.016 --> 00:53:42.706
So who can they be?

00:53:42.706 --> 00:53:51.132
So okay, we're not going to say they're going to finish higher than the lions, but they finish higher than the packers or the, because I mean the.

00:53:51.132 --> 00:53:53.396
The division is stacked now.

00:53:53.396 --> 00:53:54.726
The packers are the vikings.

00:53:54.726 --> 00:53:58.197
Diego, do you think they can finish higher than either of those teams?

00:53:59.322 --> 00:54:00.865
I think they could, over the vikings.

00:54:00.865 --> 00:54:03.373
I'm not going to predict it, but I could see ab.

00:54:03.373 --> 00:54:07.329
Definitely not the lions or packers, I think like eight and nine.

00:54:07.409 --> 00:54:15.532
Okay, maybe the vikings well, jj mccarthy starts for the vikings right, yeah, yeah, it's just unknown.

00:54:15.572 --> 00:54:18.197
So I mean, yeah, I wouldn, I wouldn't.

00:54:18.197 --> 00:54:21.250
It's a toss-up really, yeah, it's tough.

00:54:21.269 --> 00:54:22.072
That's tough to call.

00:54:22.072 --> 00:54:25.655
Yeah, a lot of it depends on the Vikings quarterback situation.

00:54:25.655 --> 00:54:27.893
So, yeah, I'm a little leery.

00:54:27.893 --> 00:54:32.617
I've seen some flashes of Caleb, but he can still hold on to the ball.

00:54:32.617 --> 00:54:34.050
He held on to the ball a lot at USC.

00:54:34.050 --> 00:54:37.250
That concerns me a little bit and I just don't.

00:54:37.250 --> 00:54:42.318
I still, at the end of the day, feel as bad as an organization can be.

00:54:42.318 --> 00:54:52.317
I don't know if I truly buy into that as far as the quarterback killer, because I think if you're really that dude, you can overcome that.

00:54:52.317 --> 00:54:55.114
The main example I have with that is Joe Burrow.

00:54:55.114 --> 00:54:58.371
Now, again, you can look at his receiver.

00:54:58.371 --> 00:55:00.510
Right, he got an all-world receiver.

00:55:00.510 --> 00:55:03.655
But I mean, shoot, we were all going into last year with the Bears.

00:55:03.655 --> 00:55:09.673
All we talked about was how strong they were at receiver, all these moves they made to welcome Caleb in.

00:55:09.673 --> 00:55:12.159
Why didn't they do all this when they had Justin Fields?

00:55:12.159 --> 00:55:13.164
You know what I'm saying.

00:55:13.164 --> 00:55:18.027
And then all of a sudden he plays poorly and it's all well, it's the Bears, it's the organization.

00:55:18.027 --> 00:55:20.449
I'm like, ah, I don't know.

00:55:20.728 --> 00:55:31.456
I just think in the past they've evaluated talent badly, like Trubisky and Fields, and when they left they didn't do anything crazy.

00:55:31.456 --> 00:55:33.498
And Caleb, I think that was a great pick.

00:55:33.498 --> 00:55:41.762
I think he's going to end up being good and that's just going to show that they just hadn't evaluated talent well earlier and that they just needed to evaluate it good, alright.

00:55:45.068 --> 00:55:47.126
Well, great discussion.

00:55:47.126 --> 00:55:52.552
I know we've got to move on to our last two topics and get on out of here because we're about at time.

00:55:52.552 --> 00:55:58.132
But, bree, we will be looking out for your Will Hernandez interview next week.

00:55:58.132 --> 00:56:03.148
And congrats on graduation, thank you and we'll be talking to you soon.

00:56:03.710 --> 00:56:06.197
Perfect, Yep talk soon All right.

00:56:08.586 --> 00:56:09.411
All right, y'all.

00:56:09.411 --> 00:56:11.492
So let's move on here.

00:56:11.492 --> 00:56:17.945
We got two more quick ones and then we've got to bring Brandon in for his recap, so let's try to go through these a little quicker.

00:56:17.945 --> 00:56:25.731
So we've got Ant because, also, you know, celtics are about to go into game six and win this game and get to game seven, so I got to check out the Celtics game here.

00:56:25.731 --> 00:56:33.034
All right, so we could have, if OKC wins this game, all right, we will have Ant versus SGA.

00:56:33.034 --> 00:56:36.831
So let's go ahead and prematurely preview this a little bit.

00:56:36.831 --> 00:56:40.219
That could be the showdown battle of the next generation.

00:56:40.219 --> 00:56:43.715
If this is the matchup, we know Minnesota's already there.

00:56:43.715 --> 00:56:45.630
What do you guys think?

00:56:45.630 --> 00:56:47.030
Diego, start with you.

00:56:47.030 --> 00:56:50.735
What do you think about this potential showdown for next generation here?

00:56:51.385 --> 00:56:53.625
I definitely have OKC 100%.

00:56:53.625 --> 00:57:00.844
I see something like last year happening because, you know, when they were the underdog against Phoenix, I remember, like last year people weren't as they were the underdog against phoenix.

00:57:00.844 --> 00:57:04.454
No, I remember like last year people weren't as high on the timbrel and they beat them.

00:57:04.454 --> 00:57:13.994
They beat denver, then the conference finals, they had all this hype and then just to get gentlemen swept by luca and luca just totally, son aunt.

00:57:13.994 --> 00:57:16.059
I think the same thing is going to happen.

00:57:16.059 --> 00:57:19.266
So like like he, they, they were.

00:57:19.266 --> 00:57:35.293
Everyone was high on the lakers and they beat the Lakers and they beat the Warriors, even without Steph, but people still were high on them for that, for some reason, and you know, they're going to come in and the Thunder are going to come off a tough seven games and the Thunder are going to just totally shock them.

00:57:35.293 --> 00:57:36.851
That's what I have happening.

00:57:40.860 --> 00:57:44.992
I do have the thunder winning this, what's going to be closer than people think because of julius randall.

00:57:44.992 --> 00:57:49.731
I think that that was a very great trade for minnesota.

00:57:49.731 --> 00:58:06.255
It weirds me out because I everybody's like, oh, you got rid of the thing that beat yokich and then you actually have a guy who's a very good running mate, who wants to take the big shots and be in the big moments, unlike a Carl Anthony Towns, which is somebody you need alongside Ant.

00:58:06.255 --> 00:58:16.498
You can't necessarily because, again, you can have Rudy, but you need somebody else to help offset the offensive load.

00:58:16.498 --> 00:58:29.755
And I really am grateful for Julius Randle for this team, even though what he did to my Lakers was, yeah, yeah, he remembered where he started and he remembered how we treated him, and then it just got bad from there.

00:58:29.755 --> 00:58:31.311
So shout out to Julius.

00:58:31.311 --> 00:58:36.876
I'm glad that he's had this playoff run to prove that he's one of the better players in the NBA.

00:58:36.876 --> 00:58:38.407
I am happy for him.

00:58:38.447 --> 00:58:44.072
He's doing his thing, playing ball, played great against the Lakers, really went head-to-head with LeBron.

00:58:44.072 --> 00:59:01.871
He was the perfect matchup to go against LeBron because he's just as big, just as strong and it really really negated a lot of the advantage that LeBron typically has when he's in the post, because he can just throw man ball people typically and he couldn't do that against Julius.

00:59:01.871 --> 00:59:03.932
So Julius was really the difference in that series.

00:59:03.932 --> 00:59:08.954
Then this past series with the Warriors, he really did his thing against Draymond.

00:59:08.954 --> 00:59:11.172
Draymond was not able to check him at all.

00:59:11.172 --> 00:59:13.554
So that does make it interesting.

00:59:14.324 --> 00:59:18.715
I just man, I'm really leery on Minnesota again.

00:59:18.715 --> 00:59:22.612
Like Diego, I don't think they're a team that plays well.

00:59:22.612 --> 00:59:33.896
With everybody patting them on the back and expectation, it seems like once they are expected to win, I don't think they're going to do well in that type of situation.

00:59:33.896 --> 00:59:39.056
So I think they're a year or two away from being able to handle prosperity.

00:59:39.056 --> 00:59:42.425
I think they're a year or two away from being able to handle prosperity.

00:59:42.425 --> 00:59:50.896
I just don't believe in them past the second round against a good opponent like this, especially by them being favored.

00:59:50.896 --> 00:59:59.864
If everyone was dogging them and telling them they had no chance, I might believe in them, but with everybody now starting to get on the train, I'm like I'm leery, I'm leery, I'm leery.

00:59:59.864 --> 01:00:07.760
And also the fact that I didn't really see the ant that I expected to see in this last round.

01:00:07.760 --> 01:00:11.875
He hasn't quite looked like that ferocious ant that we see.

01:00:11.875 --> 01:00:15.976
Flashes of that we saw in, like the first few games against the Lakers.

01:00:16.766 --> 01:00:23.233
To me, minnesota hasn't really looked all that great since game three or four of the Lakers series.

01:00:23.233 --> 01:00:29.688
They just still don't look all that polished as far as what they can be, what they're capable of.

01:00:29.688 --> 01:00:29.869
Now.

01:00:29.869 --> 01:00:32.211
Maybe they flip it on, we'll see.

01:00:32.211 --> 01:00:34.090
But I'm high on OKC.

01:00:34.090 --> 01:00:36.811
I love the pieces that they have.

01:00:36.811 --> 01:00:39.471
Chet man is just scratching the surface.

01:00:39.471 --> 01:00:39.592
A lot.

01:00:39.592 --> 01:00:40.521
Chet man is just scratching the surface.

01:00:40.521 --> 01:00:41.786
A lot of those guys are just scratching the surface.

01:00:41.786 --> 01:00:43.592
Okc's got house money this year.

01:00:43.592 --> 01:00:52.288
Like if they mess around to win the title now it's just scary because they're gonna try on so potentially, which is still yeah just ridiculous.

01:00:52.768 --> 01:00:54.231
So, yeah, I hope we see it.

01:00:54.231 --> 01:00:55.393
This would be great.

01:00:55.393 --> 01:01:01.112
It will, uh, you know, just be another, another great series, but uh, yeah, we'll know.

01:01:01.112 --> 01:01:03.697
We we'll know this weekend what we're going to have.

01:01:03.697 --> 01:01:10.630
So again, promo shout out to Lexi's Bussin' Bacon, one of our sponsors.

01:01:31.378 --> 01:01:33.807
Great family-owned business, all right.

01:01:33.807 --> 01:01:36.831
Our final topic Dallas Mavs.

01:01:36.831 --> 01:01:38.914
The Mavs get the number one pick.

01:01:38.914 --> 01:01:42.621
They are going to win the Cooper flag sweepstakes.

01:01:42.621 --> 01:01:45.233
So excited about this man.

01:01:45.233 --> 01:01:50.117
Nico Harris may have been on to something getting ahead of everything I don't know.

01:01:50.806 --> 01:01:51.990
As far as Luka goes.

01:01:51.990 --> 01:01:56.297
And man, their starting lineup looks scary.

01:01:56.297 --> 01:01:57.811
It looks especially scary.

01:01:57.811 --> 01:02:00.867
So we got a comment here from Delcia Thompson.

01:02:00.867 --> 01:02:11.007
Mom Dukes, the professor, the professor Pawpaw Thompson, my dad, shout out to Pops, says the Mavericks are riding the Duke car with three players from Duke.

01:02:11.007 --> 01:02:11.668
All right.

01:02:11.668 --> 01:02:13.429
So, diego, we know that makes you very happy.

01:02:13.429 --> 01:02:17.507
So, man, how do you feel about the Dallas Mavericks basically being Duke South?

01:02:17.869 --> 01:02:22.231
I mean I think it's a good move because I mean Duke, we have all the top prospects.

01:02:22.231 --> 01:02:24.090
I mean all the top guys want to go to Duke.

01:02:24.090 --> 01:02:32.210
And then you know the Mavericks make the right picks by drafting all our guys and I see I like how you put the 77 on and that was pretty cool.

01:02:32.231 --> 01:02:33.427
Yeah, I mean what you know.

01:02:33.427 --> 01:02:36.175
We just we wanted to pick an available number for him.

01:02:36.175 --> 01:02:37.318
That number's available.

01:02:37.358 --> 01:02:57.768
It is available this is the future face the nba right here, cooper flag, and I just think it's great that he gets to go to a good team, play with all these, all these vet vets that are experienced and I have and that have just went to the finals two years ago I mean mean last year.

01:02:57.768 --> 01:03:00.269
So I mean, yes, great.

01:03:00.269 --> 01:03:01.871
And Nico is a genius.

01:03:01.871 --> 01:03:04.773
He's been saying defense wins championships.

01:03:04.773 --> 01:03:12.240
He took all the slander and now he is going to have the guy who's going to become the best two-way player in the NBA.

01:03:12.240 --> 01:03:16.974
Yes, he trusted the process.

01:03:17.074 --> 01:03:20.052
And he knew that AB got hurt and you know this is

01:03:20.092 --> 01:03:21.364
what it resulted to you know.

01:03:21.364 --> 01:03:26.407
Yeah, so Aaron Square draft lottery lottery, all right.

01:03:26.427 --> 01:03:29.099
So, yeah, a 1.8 percent chance of this happening.

01:03:29.099 --> 01:03:37.052
And nobody thinks that, hey, our ratings are down, let's trade your best player to the best market in the NBA.

01:03:37.052 --> 01:03:40.295
Hey, because you did that, let me sweeten the deal.

01:03:40.295 --> 01:03:45.753
You go get the next guy to add to your championship team who fits a role that you need perfectly.

01:03:45.753 --> 01:03:50.096
Nobody thinks that this is rigged, nobody, it's just here.

01:03:50.096 --> 01:03:50.617
Just look.

01:03:50.617 --> 01:03:52.391
1.8% chance.

01:03:52.391 --> 01:03:54.090
Same thing happened last year.

01:03:54.710 --> 01:04:00.054
If anything, you have in life has a 2% chance of happening, would you take it Okay, but we have to look.

01:04:01.266 --> 01:04:04.344
Let's look at this because I was pretty good in math in school, all right.

01:04:04.344 --> 01:04:06.572
So you can look at it that way, all right.

01:04:06.572 --> 01:04:12.876
But who had more than a 14% or 12% chance of winning it?

01:04:12.876 --> 01:04:13.697
Right?

01:04:13.697 --> 01:04:14.699
So what team?

01:04:14.699 --> 01:04:16.971
So are we going to say who had the worst record?

01:04:16.971 --> 01:04:19.126
Wizards the Wizards, okay.

01:04:19.126 --> 01:04:19.179
Team.

01:04:19.179 --> 01:04:19.619
So are we going to say who had the worst record?

01:04:19.554 --> 01:04:29.429
Wizards the wizards okay, and they are picking, so they're six right, they had this, so they had like a 90% chance to not win it, right?

01:04:29.429 --> 01:04:37.449
So every team has such a finite chance to win and they flatten the odds to prevent tanking.

01:04:37.449 --> 01:04:42.452
Also, you've got Ernst Young, who is a well-respected accounting firm.

01:04:42.452 --> 01:04:45.039
They are a part of it.

01:04:45.039 --> 01:04:56.001
If it's rigged, like late David Stern said, if it's rigged, then we're saying the NBA is committing a federal crime.

01:04:56.001 --> 01:04:58.211
We're also saying that Ernst Young is in it.

01:04:58.211 --> 01:05:01.367
We're saying that every other team in the nba is.

01:05:01.367 --> 01:05:04.034
Do you know how many people would have to be a part of this?

01:05:04.034 --> 01:05:09.702
And in order for this, this, to be really actually, they need the other teams to be on board and it's not it.

01:05:09.842 --> 01:05:11.146
It's not leaked at all.

01:05:11.146 --> 01:05:12.530
It's not, it's, it's just.

01:05:12.530 --> 01:05:19.976
They just have a complete cover-up that everybody is all on board with all right, let's send cooper flag Just a team and a plan versus a team.

01:05:21.007 --> 01:05:27.367
Alright, we're going to get into that, but one question I want to ask you before we go is do you think the NFL should have a draft?

01:05:27.387 --> 01:05:28.550
lottery yes, absolutely Alright man.

01:05:28.550 --> 01:05:33.710
Y'all killing me, the NFL should definitely have.

01:05:34.030 --> 01:05:37.248
You should not have just the worst team get the number one pick.

01:05:37.248 --> 01:05:52.516
Heck, in my fantasy football draft that I ran, I had it to where the last team did not get the first pick, like I had it to where it was staggered so you had to if you weren't going to make the playoffs.

01:05:52.516 --> 01:06:00.677
Then you had incentive to win because the team that had the best winning percentage once they were knocked out was the team that I had to pick first.

01:06:00.677 --> 01:06:03.012
So you need to have an incentive for winning.

01:06:03.085 --> 01:06:15.293
So, yes, I think there should definitely be a lottery in the NFL, but my thing is like, okay, it's a 17-game sample size and people are trying to impress other teams and show that they're talented so that they can get another contract.

01:06:15.293 --> 01:06:18.610
So I feel like taking isn't as big of a problem with the NFL.

01:06:18.610 --> 01:06:22.557
The Browns suck because the Browns suck because again they chose it.

01:06:22.557 --> 01:06:23.599
They chose the Sean Watson.

01:06:23.599 --> 01:06:28.697
He got injured and was a very terrible quarterback in that whole office, their whole dad, crazy injuries.

01:06:28.697 --> 01:06:29.038
You feel me?

01:06:29.038 --> 01:06:31.353
Titans sucked because again, we'll let us.

01:06:31.353 --> 01:06:32.626
They didn't have that guy.

01:06:32.927 --> 01:06:39.978
I feel like taking is like a very NBA centric issue because that whole trust, the process mess back in like 14, 15, 16.

01:06:39.978 --> 01:06:43.996
That's a much bigger issue.

01:06:43.996 --> 01:06:46.010
I feel like the NFL because there are jobs on the line.

01:06:46.010 --> 01:06:51.708
It's like a finite amount of games and stuff that you can prove that, hey, I'm actually good at this.

01:06:51.708 --> 01:06:54.070
I feel like it's less of an issue.

01:06:54.070 --> 01:06:55.650
That's why I wouldn't want a lottery.

01:06:55.650 --> 01:07:06.347
I do now with how the draft is set up, I do feel like, okay, the worst players going to immediately bad situations if you win a Heisman.

01:07:06.347 --> 01:07:08.876
It's like, hey, you're going to train to dysfunction.

01:07:08.876 --> 01:07:10.489
I don't like that for the players.

01:07:10.489 --> 01:07:13.672
But as for the teams, eh, I don't really see the issue.

01:07:15.106 --> 01:07:16.268
Yeah, I'd love to have it.

01:07:16.268 --> 01:07:21.436
I guess my retort to be like what does it hurt to have?

01:07:21.476 --> 01:07:29.554
a lottery in the NFL Let the Panthers go 2-15 and we all of a sudden be able to get the guy that could save our franchise.

01:07:29.554 --> 01:07:32.693
I think Panthers fans would be pretty upset about that.

01:07:32.693 --> 01:07:45.811
If all of a sudden you're picking six, then you can't get the main person that you want to get and like Brandon has created a tournament whose teams see the 11 through 15 face off and the winner gets the number one pick.

01:07:46.987 --> 01:07:47.469
I like that.

01:07:47.469 --> 01:07:49.831
Yeah, like we need to incentivize winning.

01:07:49.831 --> 01:07:53.469
You should not be rewarded for losing.

01:07:53.469 --> 01:07:55.094
So, yeah, I like that.

01:07:55.094 --> 01:07:55.614
I like that.

01:07:55.614 --> 01:07:59.438
But man, a shout out to Dallas Mavs 2026 champions.

01:07:59.438 --> 01:08:02.230
All right, but man, but shout out to Dallas Mavs 2026 champions for sure.

01:08:02.230 --> 01:08:12.815
Yeah, man, nico, everyone you know was getting on him and getting on the franchise, but actually me and Diego, we were on this, we were, we were, you know, taking up for him.

01:08:14.146 --> 01:08:16.270
Yeah, yeah, I think they didn't get a fair shot.

01:08:16.490 --> 01:08:19.355
Y'all take it out for him because of y'all hatred for Luka.

01:08:19.355 --> 01:08:20.578
That's a different.

01:08:20.698 --> 01:08:21.560
I don't hate Luka.

01:08:21.560 --> 01:08:23.063
You trade any other.

01:08:23.063 --> 01:08:24.590
I have a Luka jersey.

01:08:24.630 --> 01:08:29.514
Okay, yeah, all right, all right, Let the Knicks trade Jalen Brunson to the Lakers or something.

01:08:29.514 --> 01:08:31.833
And then you'd be like what are the Knicks doing?

01:08:31.833 --> 01:08:33.029
What's going on?

01:08:35.512 --> 01:08:37.354
That's Jalen Brunson, it's totally different.

01:08:37.555 --> 01:08:53.935
That's totally different yes, so Joe has a question about the Vegas rumors, so the no, I think, joe, can you expound on that?

01:08:56.813 --> 01:08:59.944
moving to Vegas yeah nah, I don't see that happening is about the Mavs moving to Vegas Moving to Vegas.

01:08:59.889 --> 01:09:00.239
Yeah, nah, nah.

01:09:00.239 --> 01:09:01.783
I don't see that happening.

01:09:01.783 --> 01:09:04.974
They're staying right in Dallas.

01:09:05.376 --> 01:09:09.649
Yeah, listen, you move that, you move Luca and you move them to Vegas.

01:09:09.649 --> 01:09:11.930
Oh my goodness, nah, they're staying right in Dallas.

01:09:12.972 --> 01:09:19.382
I think they will actually end up probably adding a franchise there at some point, whatever, but nah, I don't think the Mavs will move there.

01:09:19.824 --> 01:09:21.756
Yes, you end up probably adding a franchise there at some point, whatever, but no, I don't think the Mavs will move there.

01:09:21.756 --> 01:09:22.029
No, we're not going.

01:09:22.667 --> 01:09:24.076
We're not going to talk about LeBron.

01:09:24.076 --> 01:09:29.555
Let LeBron keep on talking about the lotteries rigged and all this other kind of stuff.

01:09:29.555 --> 01:09:32.372
Good luck getting a franchise, my man.

01:09:32.372 --> 01:09:33.054
Good luck with that.

01:09:33.054 --> 01:09:52.061
Alright, let's bring on our guy, brandon Bean, who's going to tell us why the lottery is rigged, as well as give him, give us his three minute take on all that we talked about and also kind of drop some pearls on some things that's going on in the world of sports.

01:09:52.061 --> 01:09:56.371
So, brandon man, we're ready for you to enlighten us with these last three minutes.

01:09:56.371 --> 01:09:58.595
Man, what do you want to hit first?

01:10:00.704 --> 01:10:01.990
Obviously, the NBA draft lottery.

01:10:01.990 --> 01:10:03.810
All right, let's hit it, man?

01:10:03.810 --> 01:10:08.417
I feel like no.

01:10:08.417 --> 01:10:17.207
I think the reason why I feel like it is is that there's a you know like a pros and cons to it.

01:10:17.207 --> 01:10:30.911
Obviously, you know people are going to say, obviously, you know people are going to say, hey, you know, we tired of seeing top college prospects, you know in bad organizations wasting their you know, wasting their talents and careers away.

01:10:30.911 --> 01:10:33.810
Let's send them you know, to a contender.

01:10:34.465 --> 01:10:46.192
But if we do that now it's like okay, well, how do you expect these bottom three teams teams get better if they can't get the top prospects every year?

01:10:46.192 --> 01:10:47.755
So there's that.

01:10:47.755 --> 01:11:10.478
That's why I said I'm not, like I'm not, for you know nfl, trying with the lottery, because then you're gonna to be sending like imagine if that was the case, imagine Ashton Jette on the Kansas City Chiefs, or like the Eagles, or you know any you know well-run organization.

01:11:10.478 --> 01:11:21.293
Now, if you're like you know Carolina or the Saints or these struggling franchises, you know they're going to be thinking like well, how are you going to like?

01:11:21.314 --> 01:11:24.032
but they're going to be looking at the NFL.

01:11:24.032 --> 01:11:32.675
Like well, how are you going to tell us it's parity or competitive balance and you sending all the top college guys to the contenders?

01:11:32.675 --> 01:11:46.292
So you can't say oh it's competitive balance, but you're sending Cooper Flag to Dallas, a team that was just in the finals a year ago, so like that's not like parody.

01:11:46.292 --> 01:11:49.650
To me that feels like that's a competitive imbalance.

01:11:50.627 --> 01:11:50.887
Okay.

01:11:51.409 --> 01:11:56.344
Okay, that's why I suggest, you know, have everybody create a tournament.

01:11:56.344 --> 01:12:01.247
So that way you know, like you have these bottom three teams, I love it out.

01:12:01.247 --> 01:12:03.832
You know, let's see who gets the number one pick.

01:12:03.832 --> 01:12:10.811
So that way it's like, okay, they earn that pick and you know whoever loses.

01:12:10.811 --> 01:12:19.110
Hey, you get the second pick, you know that part, that team gets the third pick, you get the fourth pick and you just take whoever's best available.

01:12:19.110 --> 01:12:25.618
But at least that avoids you from you know tanking or whatever.

01:12:25.618 --> 01:12:26.060
Right.

01:12:26.079 --> 01:12:27.060
Just taking the season.

01:12:29.047 --> 01:12:34.037
Now you have to go out and earn it, much less just tanking the season.

01:12:34.037 --> 01:12:36.030
For sure, don't have a lottery playoff.

01:12:36.030 --> 01:12:37.027
Yeah, there you go.

01:12:37.027 --> 01:12:37.328
I like that.

01:12:37.328 --> 01:12:37.590
I like that.

01:12:37.590 --> 01:12:38.737
We'll have a lottery playoff.

01:12:38.737 --> 01:12:39.139
Yeah, there you go.

01:12:39.139 --> 01:12:39.863
I like that.

01:12:39.863 --> 01:12:41.207
I like that For us.

01:12:41.207 --> 01:12:44.577
Like, obviously, the WNBA is tonight.

01:12:44.577 --> 01:12:48.694
It's going to be an interesting season.

01:12:48.694 --> 01:12:53.212
Hopefully everybody stays healthy, even though we have a lot of injuries to start the season.

01:12:53.212 --> 01:13:01.358
Yeah, celtics can win in seven if New York doesn't choke this game tonight.

01:13:05.284 --> 01:13:26.832
Parody I feel like it is kind of overrated a little bit because I feel like at times fans want parody but at the same time they want to see a dynasty, so they can't really make up their mind.

01:13:26.832 --> 01:13:35.136
At times it's kind of like watching the NCAA tournament and saying, well, I like upsets, but I want to see the best remain still in the tournament.

01:13:35.136 --> 01:13:37.693
Yeah, because we just saw what happened in the men's Final Four and the National.

01:13:37.693 --> 01:13:40.204
Yeah, because we just saw what happened in the men's Final Four and the National Championship game.

01:13:40.204 --> 01:13:47.430
That was like probably better than the last two Final Fours and last two National Championship games.

01:13:47.430 --> 01:13:50.229
So I prefer that over.

01:13:50.229 --> 01:13:58.095
Like the UConn-San Diego State game or like in college football the Georgia-TCU game one year.

01:13:58.095 --> 01:14:04.972
College football the georgia tcu game one year.

01:14:04.972 --> 01:14:08.943
So it's like, I think, for me I'd rather see a competitive tournament, but also I need to see a competitive final as well.

01:14:08.963 --> 01:14:10.206
Okay, same thing with the nba.

01:14:10.206 --> 01:14:18.434
Like, yes, like, make the nba playoffs competitive, but at least make it the nba finals, you know, watchable.

01:14:18.434 --> 01:14:32.394
Like you can't go into the finals and be like, oh, it's Pacers, knicks, or I mean Knicks, thunder or Thunder Pacers, or T-Wolves Knicks or T-Wolves Pacers Hopefully.

01:14:32.394 --> 01:14:44.994
I'm still banking on Celtics and the Nuggets, even though Celtics won't have Jason Tatum, that's probably the best possible matchup left.

01:14:44.994 --> 01:15:04.509
Okay, so, yeah, that's what I'm looking forward to, because I feel like if we don't get neither of those teams in the finals, I fear that it'll become unwatchable, like the Bucks-Sun series four years ago.

01:15:04.509 --> 01:15:08.979
Yeah, that the bubble in 2020.

01:15:08.979 --> 01:15:10.770
And they had the heat in there.

01:15:10.770 --> 01:15:22.521
Then the obviously the Nuggets-Heat finals Right, pretty much last year's finals and then the 2000.

01:15:23.707 --> 01:15:26.649
And Brandon, we got to cut man too, so we're out of time.

01:15:26.944 --> 01:15:29.479
Yeah, and the 2003 finals, with the Spurs in this.

01:15:29.479 --> 01:15:36.853
But WNBA happy for NFL seasons back and hopefully we'll get a competitive NBA finals.

01:15:36.872 --> 01:15:41.012
All right, All right, we'll be looking for it, man.

01:15:41.012 --> 01:15:43.128
All right, brandon?

01:15:43.128 --> 01:15:43.953
Well, thank you.

01:15:43.953 --> 01:15:45.438
Thank you.

01:15:45.438 --> 01:15:47.609
All right, we'll see you next week.

01:15:47.609 --> 01:15:51.965
All right, cool, cool, all right, man.

01:15:51.965 --> 01:15:54.533
Well, hey, again, quick promo.

01:15:54.533 --> 01:15:55.295
We got to run.

01:15:55.295 --> 01:15:57.351

01:15:57.351 --> 01:16:00.032
You want to check that out?

01:16:00.032 --> 01:16:07.037

Shout out to everyone for checking us out.

01:16:14.432 --> 01:16:16.912
We are going to get on out of here.

01:16:16.912 --> 01:16:18.978
Got a new little outro, so we're going to play on out of here.

01:16:18.978 --> 01:16:19.932
Got a new little outro, so we're going to play that.

01:16:19.932 --> 01:16:21.315
So you'll want to take a look at that.

01:16:21.315 --> 01:16:25.756
But hey, man, y'all ready to check out this Boston Knicks game?

01:16:25.756 --> 01:16:26.096
Yep.

01:16:26.136 --> 01:16:26.838
Let's see it.

01:16:26.838 --> 01:16:27.881
All right, let's see it.

01:16:28.162 --> 01:16:42.307
Yeah, yeah, it's going to be good man Knicks is sex Can't wait and you know, as far as the we'll probably touch on next week.

01:16:42.307 --> 01:16:47.318
I want to talk about AAU and because we want to get down to the root of okay, why are we having all these injuries, especially Achilles injuries?

01:16:47.557 --> 01:16:47.918
Gotcha.

01:16:51.125 --> 01:16:54.601
With people that, okay, dane was a little older, but Tatum is what like 26?

01:16:54.601 --> 01:16:55.104
27.

01:16:55.104 --> 01:16:59.564
27, right in there, and you've got a lot of younger guys that are getting these injuries.

01:16:59.564 --> 01:17:01.829
Is this a result of aau?

01:17:01.829 --> 01:17:04.234
And not necessarily.
