- 0:00Speaker 1: Lebron.
- 0:01Speaker 2: As a matter of fact, five points in the in
- 0:04Speaker 2: the second half of Game four, playing the entire twenty
- 0:09Speaker 2: four minutes, I did not score in the fourth. Is
- 0:13Speaker 2: fatigue a factor?
- 0:14Speaker 1: Shock?
- 0:15Speaker 3: No?
- 0:15Speaker 1: But what it is a factor is they don't have
- 0:16Speaker 1: any dogs on their team. I mean, you got, you
- 0:20Speaker 1: got two of the great players on the team. But
- 0:22Speaker 1: what the dogs at? You know, I got. I don't
- 0:24Speaker 1: see a lot of fight. I don't see a lot
- 0:26Speaker 1: of grit. So you know, when you have players like that,
- 0:29Speaker 1: the others should should want to be dogs and want
- 0:32Speaker 1: to do a certain thing. One of my favorite players
- 0:34Speaker 1: is in the other day Big Shop, Bob Dog, Rick
- 0:37Speaker 1: Fox Dog. All of them be shot dog. All the
- 0:40Speaker 1: players that were with me with dogs. I don't see
- 0:42Speaker 1: any dogs on the team, So might as well pack
- 0:45Speaker 1: up and get ready for next year.
- 0:46Speaker 3: Let's move well, I think listener obviously, jeh, I don't
- 0:56Speaker 3: think they're a good team.
- 0:57Speaker 1: Do they have any dogs?
- 0:58Speaker 3: I don't think they're a good team, but I listen,
- 1:02Speaker 3: you can. You don't play a forty year old man.
- 1:05Speaker 3: They miss layups and he's defensive. Understand that. I tell
- 1:09Speaker 3: you what fun if Tom Thibodeau did that they'd run
- 1:11Speaker 3: him out of New York. They're like, wait a minute, Tom,
- 1:13Speaker 3: want you to play your guys. Listen, man, this guy
- 1:15Speaker 3: is forty years old. He's one of the best to
- 1:17Speaker 3: ever do it. He missed a layup, Luca missed a layup.
- 1:21Speaker 3: I think it's because they're tired. But you know, hey, listen,
- 1:25Speaker 3: Jay's gonna try to defend his decision. I understand that
- 1:27Speaker 3: that's what everybody, nobody wants to be criticized, But I
- 1:30Speaker 3: don't think you play guys the whole Come on, man,
- 1:33Speaker 3: give me a five minute break, and especially coming down
- 1:38Speaker 3: the stretch.
- 1:39Speaker 2: You are if you are one of their bench guys.
- 1:42Speaker 2: And JJ said he's talked to everybody about it and
- 1:45Speaker 2: why he did it and all that, But how are
- 1:47Speaker 2: you feeling, like, why does he have zero confidence in me?
- 1:53Speaker 3: First of all, as a pro, I have confidence in myself.
- 1:56Speaker 3: That's what I would happen. However, I would be upset
- 1:59Speaker 3: with him, and I would be upset that he's not
- 2:03Speaker 3: his comments, aren't you know what? I have to find
- 2:05Speaker 3: a way they on power my bench and make sure
- 2:07Speaker 3: that those guys are come in and can give us
- 2:10Speaker 3: an because it's his fault. He didn't play them, so
- 2:13Speaker 3: you could say, yeah, well they didn't score on the
- 2:15Speaker 3: second half, Yeah, you didn't. I can't score from the bench.
- 2:18Speaker 3: I can't make things happen from the bench. And so wait,
- 2:22Speaker 3: he's played a trifle. But my point is this, you're
- 2:25Speaker 3: talking about dogs, Shack. Honestly, the teams I played on,
- 2:28Speaker 3: I'm just saying, the best two players were there.
- 2:30Speaker 1: Dogs.
- 2:31Speaker 3: So we got dogs, but you got Austin Reeves plays well.
- 2:35Speaker 3: These guys play well, But these guys don't deserve to
- 2:37Speaker 3: be out there for twelve minutes either. I'm saying the
- 2:40Speaker 3: other three.
- 2:41Speaker 1: Guys, yeah, the best to play, all right, so your
- 2:44Speaker 1: championship run. Who's the best too? Blitz, Clyde, Drexler and Olajao.
- 2:48Speaker 1: Okay Son Maxwell, he's a bigger dog. He was the
- 2:51Speaker 1: biggest dog in your team.
- 2:52Speaker 2: Vernon.
- 2:52Speaker 3: Maxwell wasn't on the second championship. But my point is
- 2:57Speaker 3: you're saying the other three players, Shack, that are playing
- 3:00Speaker 3: with Luca and Lebron, they deserve to play the whole quarter.
- 3:05Speaker 3: That's that's now. I watched the Lakers basketball team. Those
- 3:09Speaker 3: three guys game.
- 3:11Speaker 1: Don't trust him, trust somebody, but.
- 3:15Speaker 3: Trust and other places that the reason he's wrong. Now,
- 3:18Speaker 3: if you want to play Lebron and Luca the whole game,
- 3:22Speaker 3: I think it's wrong, but I can live with it.
- 3:24Speaker 3: You're telling me them other three guys, three guys. That
- 3:27Speaker 3: doesn't make it. There's there's so much better than guys
- 3:31Speaker 3: sitting on the bench.
- 3:32Speaker 1: Really, no, stop it.
- 3:33Speaker 3: They're not knock it off.
- 3:35Speaker 1: They're not stopping decision. Please. I know you were mad.
- 3:40Speaker 3: You're a laker too, so I understand you talking like
- 3:42Speaker 3: a championship laker. Like, maybe I have some dogs you
- 3:46Speaker 3: gotta have.
- 3:47Speaker 2: Define dog.
- 3:49Speaker 1: Rick Fox, define dogcot Brian Shall.
- 3:54Speaker 2: Define dog, meaning I can't. A player is a dog
- 3:58Speaker 2: when he.
- 3:59Speaker 1: Can jets, when he does what he is a dog.
- 4:02Speaker 1: When you double my guy, guy, double my guy, and
- 4:07Speaker 1: you leave me open and they disrespect me and you
- 4:09Speaker 1: hit seven threes in the finals, that's a dog.
- 4:11Speaker 2: Okay, that's the definition.
- 4:12Speaker 3: The definition of a dog is a player that has
- 4:16Speaker 3: intensity in moments when he is not.
- 4:19Speaker 1: The best player and he likes to fight there it
- 4:22Speaker 1: is he's.
- 4:22Speaker 3: All good, like you ain't scared of the moment just
- 4:25Speaker 3: because the offense don't run through you. And that's a dog.
- 4:29Speaker 3: Rick Fox was a dog, was a dog.
- 4:31Speaker 1: Kevin Johnson.
- 4:32Speaker 2: I think I'll be back with a dog. Yeah, you
- 4:40Speaker 2: gotta be a dog.
- 4:41Speaker 1: Damn Marley was a dog. Mark West was a dog.
