These 2 Teams Are Just DIFFERENT This Season… · Kenny For Real

• 0:00
  Speaker 1: Sports are funny because we have an entire offseason or
• 0:03
  Speaker 1: we drive very best to predict how certain teams are
• 0:05
  Speaker 1: gonna do, to predict the play style of certain teams,
• 0:07
  Speaker 1: and a lot of the times we go into the
• 0:09
  Speaker 1: season and we're completely wrong.
• 0:10
  Speaker 2: Two teams more than.
• 0:12
  Speaker 1: Two teams, but two teams I want to talk about
• 0:13
  Speaker 1: today have proved me wrong one way or another.
• 0:15
  Speaker 2: But first, we'll be in the Miami Heat. Now.
• 0:17
  Speaker 1: I'm a guy that has respected Eric Scholsterer for the
• 0:19
  Speaker 1: entire ye of his career, so when we did our
• 0:21
  Speaker 1: over under podcast, I did go over on the Miami Heat.
• 0:23
  Speaker 1: But the thing that I was wrong about was the
• 0:24
  Speaker 1: play style. They have been such a boring basketball team
• 0:28
  Speaker 1: over the last decade. They got good results, but even
• 0:30
  Speaker 1: in their two NBA Finals runs, it wasn't the most
• 0:33
  Speaker 1: pleasing to the eye. This season, through the first week,
• 0:36
  Speaker 1: they are the most fun team in basketball for me.
• 0:38
  Speaker 1: I gotta talk about that. And then the other team
• 0:40
  Speaker 1: is the seventy six ers, And I truly do believe
• 0:43
  Speaker 1: if you made any seventy six of predictions for this season,
• 0:46
  Speaker 1: you are crazy.
• 0:47
  Speaker 2: There was too many question marks.
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: Will joy leb be ready and if he is ready,
• 0:51
  Speaker 1: What does that restriction look like? When will Paul George
• 0:54
  Speaker 1: be back? Would VJ be good as a rookie? There
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: were too many question marks to make any prediction for me,
• 0:59
  Speaker 1: and they are one of the last undefeated teams left
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: in basketball, so I got to talk about both.
• 1:03
  Speaker 2: This video is brought to you by seekk.

  Speaker 2: Out Sea Geek first.

  Speaker 1: different things. So if you need some tickets, check out

  Speaker 1: Tonight we got the Kings versus the Bulls, Zach Lavine,
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: de Martin Rose and coming back to town Russell Westbrook
• 1:36
  Speaker 1: number eighteen. For whatever reason, Let's say I want two
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: tickets and boom, it's already sorted by deal Scorer. The
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: best deal in the house is sitting course at I'm

  Speaker 1: That is an amazing view. But if you got a
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: specific place you want to go, let's say you want
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: it to be in this section right here, section one twelve.

  Speaker 1: KFR ten for ten percent off your persons of tickets.
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna start off with the Miami Heat, who have
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: completely shifted the way they play basketball. It's been all
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: the rains to talk about how they have run the
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: least amount of on ball screens and all the basketball
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: so far the season, and you can tell just by
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: watching you didn't need the numbers to prove that to
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: be the case. The question was like, how would they
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: offense really hold on without their All Star titleer hero
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: And the answer is, it's like the best offense they've
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: had in a very long time. I mean, just by
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: an offensive ratings standpoint, it's the best offense they've ever
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: had in this organization, but compared to the other teams
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: in the league, they have the third ranked offense, which
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: is the highest they have been since Lebron was on
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: the team since since Lebron was on the team. Small
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: civil size, Maybe some of these games are not against
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: the greatest of talent, but regardless, the play style is
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: the play style, and it has been beautiful. It truly
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: does remind me, and I will watch a ton of
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: college basketball too. We get to March Madness. It reminds
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: me of one of those mid major March Maddeness teams
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: that come out of nowhere and through the power of
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: friendship and the power of ball movement, they dominate a
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: top seeded team. That's this Miami Heat team who on paper,
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: they should not have this great of an offense, but
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: they do. And I feel like everybody's kind of playing
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: their role perfectly and that matters. Like I want to
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: start off with matter of fact, let's start off with
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: Davion Mitchell, who were in their last game against to
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: Charlotte Hornets.
• 3:20
  Speaker 2: He set the tempo very early in the game.
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: I want to be showing you too many NBA clips
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: in this video because Adam Silver and this team don't
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: like when I end up doing stuff like this, but
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: I do want to highlight a lot of things of
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: Davion Mitchell, who has been an absolute dog. Look at
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: where this possession is right now. Do you want to
• 3:37
  Speaker 1: guess how this possession ends? Just the second bucket of
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: the game for the Miami Heat, Just Davion Mitchell going
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: right at the chest of LaMelo Ball, who doesn't want
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: to foul. Then this is just what a possession or
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: two later. There's a huge size difference between LaMelo Ball
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: and Davion Mitchell. And though I've had a lot of
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: fun watching the Charlotte Hornets before the season started, I
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: was mentioning that it's going to be super hard to
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: picture the Charlotte Hornets having a good to great defensive
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: team if LaMelo Ball is on there, because he's just
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: not a good defensive player. So he can ramp it
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: up right in certain times in clutch games, but not
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: on the possession by possession basis right. I know, maybe
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: this is more of an indication about LaMelo Ball's off
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: ball defense than anything, And I promise it's not supposed
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: to be a Namelo BA hipieces because I think he's
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: been playing really great.
• 4:18
  Speaker 2: This season has been a fun, fun watch.
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: But it's another one in the possessions where Davion Mitchell
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: just plays a little bit smarter here where you do
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: see the help right here on the Wiggins pick and
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: roll with Khalil where and now there's a lot of
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: space that Collin Sexons have to make up. Once he
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: makes his pass to Davion Mitchell, he closes out very
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: hard LaMelo ball, trying to be a gazillion IQ guy.
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: He's gonna try to jump a pass right here, but
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: what Pel Larson, He's not even there anymore, and Davion
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: Mitchell just shifts it off to him for easy two.
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: One thing you will notice if you watch them play
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: is that Davion Mitch's kind of like him and Hami Hakis,
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: I guess, are the two guys that dribble the ball
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: a lot. Everybody else is making very quick snap decisions
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: and is leading to easy possessions, easy buckets sometimes just
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: off of a make from the opposing t they get
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: out and they run. It's not necessarily about pace, even
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: though the pace has been a great thing.
• 5:05
  Speaker 2: It's about I.
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: Guess it is kind of I got say, it is
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: kind of about pace. It's about pace, it's about fighting mismatches,
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: it's about cross matches, which is something they've taken advantage
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: of a ton this season. And in order to play
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: this brand of basketball, you need everybody to be completely
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: bought in. And from Wiggins's interviews, from bam adebios and
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: for pretty much anybody that just had a microphone in
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: front of them on the Miami, everybody's completely bought in
• 5:27
  Speaker 1: to play this bi committee brand of basketball. And it's
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: great because as a defensive team, you don't really know
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: what you should be trying to take away him and
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: A Bio said after a game a few nights ago
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: that the reason he's really liking this new play style
• 5:42
  Speaker 1: is that they're very rarely running real plays. They're playing
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: off instinct and everything.
• 5:46
  Speaker 2: But occasionally you.
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: Will see them run some stuff to get a guy
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: like someon from Tachio, who y'all know, anytime from Tachio's
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: in the game, I'm glued in. You see him coming
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: off this double screen and Fontachyo is one of those guys, says,
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: just going to pull it every chance he gets. And
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: one and it's something about having a shooter like this.
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: Now Fontekyo is coming off the bench and everything, so
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: he's kind of like a spark plug in that way.
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: It's something about having a shooter like this that is
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: relentless and getting his own shot off. That's another three
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: for him. Here's home Hokas again setting up the offense,
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: and again I'm gonna talk about Hoimi in a second.
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: He's been incredible so far this season, and as you
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: can imagine as we're talking about it, some all fun Takyo.
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: This is just tough shot making and a great Like
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: a lot of these guards that are on the Miami,
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: he have done a really good job.
• 6:30
  Speaker 2: Of driving a kick and driving a kick and driving
• 6:32
  Speaker 2: a kick.
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: And Drew Smith is not a guy that's on the
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: radar for many people as NBA fans, But just him
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: getting just one step, just one step getting McNee lead
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: to bite a little bit, leaving Fontakyo with a little
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: bit of space and I mean it ain't a ton
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: of space for fun takeyo, and that's a win.
• 6:46
  Speaker 2: But now I gonna talk about home.
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: Hokas, who's through the first with four games of the
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: season or so, he's got the highest plus minus in
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: all the basketball. He's one of the most efficient players
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: in all the basketball, and I love it. And I
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: don't know if this level of efficiency is gonna stick
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: for the entire season. Hell, it probably won't to stick
• 6:59
  Speaker 1: for this entire s but it's so good to see
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: him have a bounce back based on last year. It
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: wasn't it wasn't very good. One of the things I
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: admire about home hokiy As, especially in this this offense
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: that is trying to get cross matches and is trying
• 7:12
  Speaker 1: to get mismatches where it matters.
• 7:14
  Speaker 2: Homey just doesn't care bigger defender, smaller defender. I think
• 7:19
  Speaker 2: I could take him. And that's that's the Hami Hakis way.
• 7:22
  Speaker 2: So far.
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: They had a lot of possession when Musa Diabat was
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: his matchup, and he just went right into the chest
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: of Mussa Diabat. He wasn't shooting the three point ball
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: through the first Cup games, and this one he came
• 7:31
  Speaker 1: off a few screens, a few pin down screens and
• 7:33
  Speaker 1: hit threes. He's been great, and he kind of balances
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: the free flowing nature, the quick touches of the Miami
• 7:42
  Speaker 1: everybody else on the team other than him and Davion
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: Mitchell have a average touch time below like two seconds.
• 7:47
  Speaker 2: Right, they get the ball, they make a decision. They
• 7:48
  Speaker 2: get the ball, they make a decision.
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: Jamey also can do that, but he also is a
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: guy that's like old no, I want an empty side
• 7:54
  Speaker 1: right now and let me go to work. Like this play,
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: which is often to make for Kank Nipple, who's been
• 7:57
  Speaker 1: shooting it very well to start his NBA career. This
• 7:59
  Speaker 1: is off of a main This is just him Cela
• 8:02
  Speaker 1: mellow ball basically empty side and says, hey, I'm stronger
• 8:06
  Speaker 1: than you are. I'm gonna go right up and over you.
• 8:08
  Speaker 1: And lastly, about this team current, well, I guess not
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: last because we an'tventioned the name Norman Powell yet. But
• 8:13
  Speaker 1: one of the things that really stands out is that
• 8:15
  Speaker 1: only six percent of their possessions are happening where the
• 8:20
  Speaker 1: shot clock gets down to the last four seconds. And
• 8:22
  Speaker 1: that may may not seem like a crazy stat but
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: it is the lowest in the league by a good margin.
• 8:27
  Speaker 1: We got teams like the Clippers who eighteen percent of
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: their possessions go their way. The Rockets are an eighteen
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: percent as well, the Knicks seventeen and a half. This
• 8:36
  Speaker 1: just showcases how quickly they're getting shot up and how
• 8:39
  Speaker 1: decisive their offense has been so far, so impress Norman
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: Powell is the perfect player to have.
• 8:45
  Speaker 2: For a system like this.
• 8:46
  Speaker 1: I don't know if Eric's supposed to just watch Table
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: Jenkins last season and said next year, I'm gonna try
• 8:51
  Speaker 1: that and we need to go get a Norman Powell
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: type of player. Regardless. Norm Powell is perfect for this
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: because he is a straight line drive driver and he
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: is a big time shot taker and maker off screens.
• 9:04
  Speaker 1: Hand in his face. It doesn't really it doesn't really
• 9:07
  Speaker 1: matters too much, but he is so quick at decision
• 9:09
  Speaker 1: making that it just fits perfectly. Not a lot of
• 9:12
  Speaker 1: the conversation outside of the four games they played, It's like, Hey,
• 9:15
  Speaker 1: Tyler Herro is gonna be back in a few different weeks.
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: Do we feel as though Tyler Hero can coexist in
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: this type of offense? And I'm gonna give Tyler Hero
• 9:22
  Speaker 1: the benefit of the doubt. Yes, we recognize that Tyler
• 9:25
  Speaker 1: Hero is a ball screen heavy type of player, but
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: he also is a really good.
• 9:30
  Speaker 2: Player, you know what I mean.
• 9:31
  Speaker 1: And the last thing you kind of want to be
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: if you're a Tyler Hero is a guy that's gonna
• 9:35
  Speaker 1: mess up the cohesion of a team so I can
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: play my game. You know, I do expect some of
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: these numbers to shift a little bit with Tyler Hero,
• 9:42
  Speaker 1: because you also do want to play to his straints,
• 9:44
  Speaker 1: because the things that he's strong at, he's pretty strong at.
• 9:46
  Speaker 1: But there's nothing about itthemics. Like one thing that happens
• 9:49
  Speaker 1: on NBA Twitter a ton It's like, Oh, the Spurs
• 9:52
  Speaker 1: look so good with their young guards, so they must
• 9:54
  Speaker 1: trade dear Fox. I mean, he looks so good with
• 9:56
  Speaker 1: this new offense. Oh, they gotta trade Tyler Herro. Right,
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: Sometimes it's not that simple. Let's see these guys play
• 10:03
  Speaker 1: with these new teams or this new offense before we
• 10:05
  Speaker 1: make those big decisions or whether.
• 10:07
  Speaker 2: Or not they should be traded. The mount of heat
• 10:09
  Speaker 2: have been fun. If you have not.
• 10:10
  Speaker 1: Watched them players yet, please do because it really is
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: a great brand of basketball. All right. Next, I'm gonna
• 10:15
  Speaker 1: talk about the seventy six ers who this First of all,
• 10:18
  Speaker 1: I feel like I've used up all the footage I
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: can for this video, but there's not a ton of
• 10:21
  Speaker 1: footage to be talked about for the seventy six I
• 10:24
  Speaker 1: feel like we just went from like a dive into
• 10:26
  Speaker 1: the offense to the seventy six is being like the
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: vibes are immaculant. That's the real conversation about the seventy
• 10:36
  Speaker 1: six ers right now. They at this moment in time
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: have the number two offense and all of basketball, just
• 10:41
  Speaker 1: a little bit above the Miami Heat, who we just
• 10:43
  Speaker 1: talked about, and there has not been a team that's
• 10:45
  Speaker 1: been able to stop them just yet.
• 10:46
  Speaker 2: It just hasn't happened. Even in their game.
• 10:48
  Speaker 1: Last night when they were down by nineteen points and
• 10:50
  Speaker 1: it felt like it was over, they found out a
• 10:52
  Speaker 1: way to go on what like a twelve oh run
• 10:54
  Speaker 1: to end the game. Everybody's playing such good basketball. We
• 10:57
  Speaker 1: got to start off with Tyres Maxi, who has been
• 11:00
  Speaker 1: literally unguardable through the first four games of the season.
• 11:03
  Speaker 1: He is the best version of a through dual threat
• 11:06
  Speaker 1: offensive option, where he is such a great three point
• 11:09
  Speaker 1: shooter that if he is getting it off of the catch,
• 11:12
  Speaker 1: you have to make a decision if you want to
• 11:14
  Speaker 1: close out hard and guess if you do, he's just
• 11:16
  Speaker 1: gonna blow by you for an easy layup at the basket.
• 11:18
  Speaker 1: Float of range. Maybe the best floater in all of basketball,
• 11:21
  Speaker 1: even when he's playing screen and rolling with a Nadean
• 11:23
  Speaker 1: Bona or Joe Joe Key Noah Joel Embiid. Why did
• 11:28
  Speaker 1: Joe keep Noah name? Come on out, Joel Embiid. He
• 11:31
  Speaker 1: is such a good.
• 11:32
  Speaker 2: Pull up shooter.
• 11:33
  Speaker 1: He is such a good passer at this part of
• 11:36
  Speaker 1: his career that like, he's hit a.
• 11:37
  Speaker 2: Hold of the jump.
• 11:38
  Speaker 1: And that's saying something because just a few years ago
• 11:39
  Speaker 1: he averaged twenty six. Yeah it was twenty six, and
• 11:42
  Speaker 1: I'm telling you that through the first four games he
• 11:43
  Speaker 1: hit another jump. He's at a level of efficiency that
• 11:46
  Speaker 1: is hard to replicate. It with him being as good
• 11:49
  Speaker 1: as he has been on and off the ball. It
• 11:51
  Speaker 1: just opens a game.
• 11:51
  Speaker 2: Of so much more.
• 11:52
  Speaker 1: In their game against let me let me remember who
• 11:55
  Speaker 1: that was the not last night's game, but the game
• 11:57
  Speaker 1: before that.
• 11:57
  Speaker 2: Yes, the Orlando Magic.
• 11:59
  Speaker 1: The Orlando Magic at one point in time started to
• 12:01
  Speaker 1: throw two people at Tyrese Maxi and just open the
• 12:04
  Speaker 1: game up so much more for the rookie VJ to
• 12:06
  Speaker 1: get a couple shots off in the mid range, to
• 12:08
  Speaker 1: get a couple backdoor cuts for different players, and so
• 12:10
  Speaker 1: many people are just playing really good hoops right now,
• 12:12
  Speaker 1: So Tyre's Maxie.
• 12:13
  Speaker 2: Really this is a guy that, like.
• 12:15
  Speaker 1: I don't know, if you try to take away, I
• 12:17
  Speaker 1: just don't before the negative nancies getting to the Debbie Downers,
• 12:21
  Speaker 1: if you will get into the common section. I recognize
• 12:23
  Speaker 1: that so far the level competition has been the Washington
• 12:25
  Speaker 1: which is the or Little Magic who can't guard anybody either,
• 12:27
  Speaker 1: this Charlotte Hornets, and the Boston Celtics who don't do
• 12:30
  Speaker 1: anything as well.
• 12:30
  Speaker 2: I recognize that.
• 12:31
  Speaker 1: But at the end of the day, this channel was
• 12:33
  Speaker 1: about appreciated what's in front of you. Yeah, they might
• 12:36
  Speaker 1: get tougher matchups and then they start losing. That's not
• 12:39
  Speaker 1: really relevant to me right now. I'm just taking it
• 12:40
  Speaker 1: at what it is at this moment in time, which
• 12:42
  Speaker 1: has been a fun basketball team.
• 12:44
  Speaker 2: And one thing I really like is.
• 12:45
  Speaker 1: That with us not knowing exactly when Joel Lebid is
• 12:49
  Speaker 1: gonna play, what he's not gonna play.
• 12:50
  Speaker 2: I like how they're maximizing his minutes limit.
• 12:53
  Speaker 1: Sometimes you see a guy beyond a minis restriction and
• 12:55
  Speaker 1: he just kind of lingers around.
• 12:56
  Speaker 2: It's like, no, if you're only gonna be out here
• 12:58
  Speaker 2: for twenty minutes.
• 12:59
  Speaker 1: Jolib we want you to beat him for twenty minutes,
• 13:02
  Speaker 1: and last night game he really did that. It's like
• 13:04
  Speaker 1: with twenty three minutes, twenty five points or so, and
• 13:07
  Speaker 1: they were able to come back and close the game
• 13:09
  Speaker 1: without him. So yeah, let's maximize these minutes we have
• 13:11
  Speaker 1: with him on the court until he gets completely healthy.
• 13:13
  Speaker 2: That's a win. I've been impressed with a lot of people.
• 13:14
  Speaker 1: Obviously, we mentioned the name VJ, and I don't know
• 13:16
  Speaker 1: if I could say anything that hasn't been said about
• 13:18
  Speaker 1: VJ just yet. I mean, if you just watch anybody
• 13:20
  Speaker 1: in basketball media, everybody's extremely impressed with his level of
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: athleticism so far, of his level of jump shooting, like
• 13:26
  Speaker 1: that was one of the biggest questions, and through the
• 13:27
  Speaker 1: first four games, he's been hitting shots. That's pretty dope.
• 13:30
  Speaker 1: We knew he was going to be a superior athlete.
• 13:32
  Speaker 1: We knew he had the tools to be a good
• 13:33
  Speaker 1: defensive player. I mean that hasn't really material last year yet,
• 13:36
  Speaker 1: but with the tools, I'm sure he'll get there one day.
• 13:38
  Speaker 2: But it's like, can he hit the open three? Can
• 13:41
  Speaker 2: he create off the back? Yeah?
• 13:42
  Speaker 1: Yeah, he answers yes to the first four games. So
• 13:45
  Speaker 1: putting that aside, Quentin Crimes man. I read a stat
• 13:48
  Speaker 1: this morning that the Washington Wizards. Matter of fact, let
• 13:52
  Speaker 1: me make sure I get the stack correctly and give
• 13:54
  Speaker 1: the proper credit where it's due. Hold him Yeaccording to
• 13:56
  Speaker 1: NBA dot Com, the Washington Wizards last night shot two
• 14:00
  Speaker 1: of nineteen. I'm gonna say that again, two of nineteen
• 14:03
  Speaker 1: when they were being guarded by Quentin Grimes, and not
• 14:05
  Speaker 1: just that, Quinn Grimes hit maybe the biggest shot of
• 14:07
  Speaker 1: the entire game to put it into going into overtime
• 14:10
  Speaker 1: just a few seconds left. So he has been incredible.
• 14:13
  Speaker 1: There's so many bright spots about this team that it
• 14:15
  Speaker 1: kind of band aid's over, you know, all of the
• 14:18
  Speaker 1: stuff with their two star players or their two max
• 14:21
  Speaker 1: players that it's like, it's cool.
• 14:22
  Speaker 2: The vibes are immaculin.
• 14:24
  Speaker 1: And as I'm recording this video, Jake Fisher just reported
• 14:26
  Speaker 1: that there's definitely some positive momentum to my understanding about
• 14:29
  Speaker 1: Paul George making his NBA. Why not just put his
• 14:32
  Speaker 1: season debut sometime next week plus sometime in early November,
• 14:35
  Speaker 1: so by early November they could have their entire star
• 14:39
  Speaker 1: lineup completely healthy, or at least most of their star
• 14:41
  Speaker 1: lineup completely healthy, and I don't know. I still feel
• 14:44
  Speaker 1: like it's hard to make a prediction or to like
• 14:47
  Speaker 1: this organization as a whole. It's always been, oh, something
• 14:51
  Speaker 1: just happened, So it's hard to make a prediction. But
• 14:53
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna take it that face value and say everything
• 14:54
  Speaker 1: is looking good in seventy six or Land right now,
• 14:57
  Speaker 1: then Bona Batman. Times can be somewhat out of control,
• 15:01
  Speaker 1: like I think we have to recognize that, but some
• 15:04
  Speaker 1: of the defensive plays he can make, it's the exact
• 15:07
  Speaker 1: type of center.
• 15:07
  Speaker 2: That I really like. Is a backup he just truly is.
• 15:10
  Speaker 2: I think that I don't know how much they've done this.
• 15:12
  Speaker 1: Let me see, let me see if I can find
• 15:13
  Speaker 1: these stats, and maybe they did it a little bit
• 15:15
  Speaker 1: last season, but.
• 15:16
  Speaker 2: I feel like he could and should get some minutes
• 15:18
  Speaker 2: of a thing.
• 15:18
  Speaker 1: Bone and Joel Andbee playing together so far through the
• 15:21
  Speaker 1: last two seasons they played two minutes together zero this season.
• 15:25
  Speaker 1: Just too last season and they didn't score and that
• 15:28
  Speaker 1: too many stretch so I can't that I wouldn't mind
• 15:33
  Speaker 1: seeing them play at least just give me a couple
• 15:35
  Speaker 1: of ESS's them playing on the court together. I feel
• 15:37
  Speaker 1: like it could be pretty interesting with some of the
• 15:38
  Speaker 1: dynamic guards they have on the court as well, because
• 15:40
  Speaker 1: right now they're struggling to create stops, which through the
• 15:44
  Speaker 1: first four games because their offense has been so potent
• 15:46
  Speaker 1: that it hasn't really matter. But if this team's gonna
• 15:48
  Speaker 1: do anything, they're gonna have to get stopped sitting in
• 15:51
  Speaker 1: that chair, and I think playing those both of those
• 15:53
  Speaker 1: guys together could potentially help some of that. Maybe I'm tripping,
• 15:55
  Speaker 1: I don't know, that's all I got. Max's playing like
• 15:57
  Speaker 1: a superstar. Vj's playing like Brookie of the Year, Quinn
• 15:59
  Speaker 1: grind I was paying like he deserved all the money
• 16:01
  Speaker 1: in the world, and Joel and b doesn't look half
• 16:04
  Speaker 1: bad considering all of this stuff around.
• 16:05
  Speaker 2: It so fun. Eastern Conference better than we anticipated.
• 16:09
  Speaker 1: The Bulls an defeat it as I recorded this video,
• 16:11
  Speaker 1: so you know what I'm saying, Maybe we get a
• 16:13
  Speaker 1: Bulls video tomorrow if they win to get Sacramento.
• 16:14
  Speaker 2: We'll see
