Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: All right, ladies and gentlemen, let's talk about it. We
- 0:02Speaker 1: were all hyped, we were all so very hyped for
- 0:04Speaker 1: a Game seven. Kyto Za's Opportunitia clip I get I
- 0:07Speaker 1: get everything done today. I'm like, hey, once this game
- 0:09Speaker 1: tip off is six thirty, don't nobody call me, don't
- 0:11Speaker 1: nobody text me. This is game seven, baby, and the
- 0:13Speaker 1: winner gets to lose to ok see, probably, but damn it.
- 0:16Speaker 1: Game seven is supposed to be electric, and you get
- 0:18Speaker 1: something that happens today every so often, where at one
- 0:21Speaker 1: point the Nuggets are up by thirty five points and
- 0:25Speaker 1: it's a it's not officially over, but maybe Kobe Brown's
- 0:28Speaker 1: had been playing from the early from the early part
- 0:30Speaker 1: of this series, Devin because he made them put the
- 0:32Speaker 1: starters back in. But now it was Ignoledgers on the course.
- 0:33Speaker 1: So if he Ignoledge's playing in a playoff game, you
- 0:36Speaker 1: know what I'm saying. Let's let's talk about it, man,
- 0:38Speaker 1: Let's talk about it. Because the Clippers just came out there,
- 0:41Speaker 1: shit the bit. There are a lot of things that
- 0:43Speaker 1: bothered the hell out of me from this Clippers performance
- 0:45Speaker 1: and my notes to start off, well, I'm like, okay,
- 0:46Speaker 1: dere Jones you was starting on Jamal Murray.
- 0:48Speaker 2: That sounds great.
- 0:49Speaker 1: Der Jones usedcored the first nine of seven of nine
- 0:51Speaker 1: points here or three and two may layups, and it
- 0:53Speaker 1: was perfect. And then it very quickly shifted to Oh
- 0:56Speaker 1: my god, the ball is finding this man way too often.
- 0:58Speaker 1: I love DEARR Jones Junior, I love Chris Dunn, but
- 1:01Speaker 1: they should not touch the ball.
- 1:03Speaker 2: That many times in a game seven.
- 1:05Speaker 1: It's like the Clippers played so hard to get to
- 1:09Speaker 1: seven just to say that's it. And what this is
- 1:13Speaker 1: today is not February, I'm sorry, not November twenty second.
- 1:18Speaker 1: There is no other world other than it being a
- 1:21Speaker 1: random regular season game.
- 1:23Speaker 2: Me let me look at this where Darren Jones Jr.
- 1:28Speaker 1: Should have ten shots and James Harden should have eight?
- 1:34Speaker 2: Did he forget? Did he forget? This was game seven?
- 1:38Speaker 2: Oh my god.
- 1:39Speaker 1: Bro, there's like there's certain ways I cover this game
- 1:43Speaker 1: that I don't like, Like a certain ways that people
- 1:46Speaker 1: cover this game that I steal away from.
- 1:47Speaker 2: That's just not my lane, that's not my vibe.
- 1:49Speaker 1: But so on, it's so forth, James bro I love
- 1:53Speaker 1: this season for him, all things considered, right, Kawhi Leonard
- 1:56Speaker 1: misses more than half of the season.
- 1:57Speaker 2: This Clippers team wasn't projected.
- 1:59Speaker 1: To do anything, and James mix no All Star appearance,
- 2:02Speaker 1: he ma make an All NBA appear and so on
- 2:04Speaker 1: and so forth. But for to be Game seven and
- 2:06Speaker 1: he gives them nothing nothing.
- 2:09Speaker 2: I'm not trying to hear this. Cist numbers are the
- 2:11Speaker 2: assist numbers.
- 2:12Speaker 1: But I promise you if any if the Clippers were playing,
- 2:16Speaker 1: if the Nuggets were playing his zon against you, you
- 2:18Speaker 1: would find the man in the middle to shoot the shot.
- 2:21Speaker 2: You so miss me with that.
- 2:24Speaker 1: This was a stinky James game, man, And that's not
- 2:26Speaker 1: even my bad. That's not how I cover this sport.
- 2:28Speaker 1: Before to be in Game seven, I just needed and
- 2:31Speaker 1: I don't care wins. I just needed James Harden to
- 2:34Speaker 1: be better. The game that they won last James and
- 2:38Speaker 1: Kawhi were in their dough like sixty points combined. They
- 2:41Speaker 1: were that nice. And for to get to Game seven,
- 2:44Speaker 1: I felt like they played one quarter of basketball and
- 2:46Speaker 1: they were like, this ain't even really it. We're probably
- 2:49Speaker 1: gonna lose the OKC anyway. The last, like Kawhiler, has
- 2:53Speaker 1: been a decent amount of Game seven, so I'm not mistaken.
- 2:55Speaker 2: One of my most favorite memories of Kawhy Lo.
- 2:58Speaker 1: That's not just a shot. It's not just a shot
- 2:59Speaker 1: again seventy six ers. It was the fact that he
- 3:02Speaker 1: said to himself, my worst shot is better than this
- 3:06Speaker 1: random role player's best shot. So I'm gonna take thirty
- 3:10Speaker 1: nine shot attempts tonight and we go win and lose
- 3:14Speaker 1: by me and we didn't get none of them.
- 3:17Speaker 2: Actually, no, I take that back.
- 3:18Speaker 1: Kawhi Leonard tried to take over to start the fourth quarter.
- 3:21Speaker 1: That took the first three shots, and it stood in
- 3:23Speaker 1: the corner in the notes. I'm frustrated and I don't
- 3:28Speaker 1: care who came out of this series, but this is
- 3:30Speaker 1: supposed to be best player in the world versus one
- 3:33Speaker 1: of the best, two of the best of this generation,
- 3:37Speaker 1: and it wasn't. It was dearrire Jones Junior and Chris
- 3:41Speaker 1: Dunn in the middle of the middle of a zone.
- 3:43Speaker 1: I can't I can't understand why so often in the
- 3:48Speaker 1: playoffs we see a team throw a zone out and
- 3:51Speaker 1: you oppose the team, just like, what.
- 3:53Speaker 2: Do we do?
- 3:53Speaker 1: How do we generate good looks? And it's happened in
- 3:56Speaker 1: so many series just this year long. We're teams that
- 3:59Speaker 1: are good offense. The Clippers for the last month and
- 4:02Speaker 1: a half were the best offensive team in this league.
- 4:05Speaker 1: And then they saw a zone today and they were like, Ah,
- 4:10Speaker 1: Chris don can you save us? By Donamus? Can you
- 4:12Speaker 1: save us? Norman Pound? Can you say it's crazy? It
- 4:17Speaker 1: really is crazy, man? And you know who I would
- 4:21Speaker 1: be pissed if I'm if I was one of the
- 4:24Speaker 1: one hundred and thirty fans they got flew out by
- 4:27Speaker 1: Steve Barmer, I would be pissed because one of my
- 4:30Speaker 1: favorite things about going to sporting events is going home.
- 4:32Speaker 1: If I feel like I want to go home. If
- 4:35Speaker 1: I go to a Bulls game and they're down by
- 4:36Speaker 1: twenty and a half, guess what, I don't care that
- 4:38Speaker 1: I spent one hundred dollars to get in. This shit sucks.
- 4:41Speaker 1: I'm going home. They could even do that, they got
- 4:43Speaker 1: flown in. They can't just walk away. They have to
- 4:45Speaker 1: sit through this ass whooping and pray that Kobe Brown
- 4:49Speaker 1: had enough juice to make it interesting with six minutes left.
- 4:54Speaker 1: And you know, one of the most insane things about
- 4:56Speaker 1: it before we flip onto talking about the greatness that
- 4:58Speaker 1: is the dinner nuggets they guarded Yokis very well tonight.
- 5:03Speaker 1: They guarded him so well tonight and it didn't matter.
- 5:08Speaker 1: I'd be frustrated if I was a Clippers fan, super frustrated.
- 5:13Speaker 1: They had a lot like a lot of people picked
- 5:14Speaker 1: them in the series. I'm me I picked them in
- 5:20Speaker 1: seven though, and a lot of times if I'm going
- 5:21Speaker 1: so and so and seven, I mean, it's a poin flip.
- 5:23Speaker 1: I don't know who the hell going win the series, Like,
- 5:24Speaker 1: I'm just trying to respect both teams, and that's kind
- 5:26Speaker 1: of what we got.
- 5:29Speaker 2: This is an awful, awful performance from them. Let's flip
- 5:31Speaker 2: it on the said, let's talk about the team that
- 5:32Speaker 2: actually won.
- 5:33Speaker 1: Because this team gets to go against okayce and just
- 5:35Speaker 1: two nights, so this should be fun. The two AVP
- 5:37Speaker 1: candidates going to getst each other in the series. That
- 5:39Speaker 1: should be super fun. But we're not doing a preview.
- 5:41Speaker 1: Let's talk about this game seven for the Nuggets. They
- 5:44Speaker 1: look really good throwing out their zone. Brody had a
- 5:46Speaker 1: really good performance off the bench. People are hit my
- 5:49Speaker 1: line like or my tweets like, when did Brody become
- 5:52Speaker 1: a great three point shooters?
- 5:53Speaker 2: Mostly in them corners?
- 5:54Speaker 1: Them corners really be Brodie spot oufter Christian Brown did
- 5:57Speaker 1: an amazing job setting the tempo today. And I gotta
- 6:00Speaker 1: give a lot of credit to Michael Porter Junr. Because
- 6:02Speaker 1: in the beginning of the series, I think it was
- 6:04Speaker 1: Game one he played off he got benched down stretch,
- 6:07Speaker 1: and I remember Nikola Yoki going to to the podium
- 6:10Speaker 1: and saying something like, if you don't if you don't
- 6:12Speaker 1: feel like playing now, or you can't get motivated to
- 6:14Speaker 1: play now, then you shouldn't be playing this sport. And
- 6:16Speaker 1: I'm like, damn that those are harsh words from your
- 6:19Speaker 1: star player. And then since then, even though he did
- 6:21Speaker 1: have a couple duds in there, don't get me wrong,
- 6:23Speaker 1: Michael Porter Junr. Has been pretty damn good, especially we
- 6:25Speaker 1: consider they said that at one point he couldn't even
- 6:27Speaker 1: lift his arm over his hand, and he had a
- 6:30Speaker 1: couple of big shots today. And I swear to you
- 6:31Speaker 1: there's nobody in the world that wants to ball more
- 6:34Speaker 1: when his team is up by twenty than Michael Porter Jr.
- 6:36Speaker 1: He said, I could just shoot with no consequences, and
- 6:39Speaker 1: I think he feels like if he hits that contest
- 6:41Speaker 1: to step back three when they're already up by a lot,
- 6:44Speaker 1: he gonna bring the house down, and he did. Different
- 6:47Speaker 1: fans were amazing today from the very start, and that's
- 6:50Speaker 1: pretty dope.
- 6:51Speaker 2: We got to see.
- 6:52Speaker 1: And you know, I'm going to a game seven thinking,
- 6:54Speaker 1: hey man, they gotta be ready.
- 6:55Speaker 2: To ride their starters and ride their stars. This is
- 6:58Speaker 2: not a.
- 6:58Speaker 1: Different Nuggets team with a ton of depth, right, so
- 7:00Speaker 1: we shouldn't get We may get a stint of Peyton
- 7:03Speaker 1: Watson and if that goes bad, then no more.
- 7:06Speaker 2: We shouldn't get to see you know, DeAndre Jordan.
- 7:11Speaker 1: He came in and he actually had a two stints
- 7:13Speaker 1: and it was like, all right, not that bad. And
- 7:15Speaker 1: that was when they really started to muck it up,
- 7:19Speaker 1: if you will, with that zone when it was not
- 7:20Speaker 1: Yolks on the court. And then to start the fourth
- 7:23Speaker 1: quarter they rolled by so much that Jokics got to
- 7:25Speaker 1: rest until Kobe Brown. I'm gonna miss his name again
- 7:28Speaker 1: because he's the best player for the Clippers today. When
- 7:30Speaker 1: Kobe Brown came in and made it interesting all of
- 7:32Speaker 1: a sudden, yeah man, this was this was This was
- 7:34Speaker 1: a game that I was highly anticipated and it didn't
- 7:37Speaker 1: work out the way we wanted to, which again that
- 7:39Speaker 1: that is okay, that's fine. Hopefully tomorrow's Game seven gets
- 7:42Speaker 1: us something more interesting than this. But now we got
- 7:44Speaker 1: to start thinking about the Denver Nuggets versus the OKC Thunder.
- 7:46Speaker 1: Okayc ain't played in a week. That's kind of crazy
- 7:49Speaker 1: to think about. They've just been chilling waiting to see
- 7:51Speaker 1: who they was gonna go against. And it's gonna be
- 7:53Speaker 1: the go, go fast and rest versus Rust, a team
- 7:55Speaker 1: that just went to a dog fight of a Game
- 7:57Speaker 1: seven and then this game seven we had an overtime game,
- 7:59Speaker 1: or or not in this game set, but in the
- 8:01Speaker 1: seven game series with an overtime game, or the team
- 8:03Speaker 1: that smacked that ass and then just been chilling at
- 8:05Speaker 1: the crib waiting to see who their opponent is, who's
- 8:07Speaker 1: gonna be ready the most?
- 8:10Speaker 2: For what it's worth, I'm.
- 8:11Speaker 1: Taking Okay see in six like my final prediction there.
- 8:14Speaker 1: But I can't put anything past this different Nuggets team,
- 8:18Speaker 1: just can't. I think the one part that Okac's gonna
- 8:21Speaker 1: win at is like just having that immense amount of
- 8:23Speaker 1: depth that like there's there's not a mini roster or
- 8:26Speaker 1: lineup constructions where you feel like the different Nuggets will
- 8:30Speaker 1: have the better lineup. It's kind of scary, right, there's
- 8:33Speaker 1: times we're in this series you're like, oh, yeah, Chris
- 8:35Speaker 1: Donna is on the floor.
- 8:36Speaker 2: Bet, Oh, Derrick Jones you on the four. Bet.
- 8:38Speaker 1: Ben Simmons is on the floor early in this series.
- 8:40Speaker 1: Bet by donovit's on the road in this series. Bet
- 8:44Speaker 1: doing pound on the road this series. Bet. You don't
- 8:47Speaker 1: really get a lot of that with Okay, see, you're
- 8:48Speaker 1: gonna have to pick your poison, right, So you know,
- 8:50Speaker 1: Aaron Wiggins might get a lot of open looks in
- 8:52Speaker 1: the series, but like, it's a.
- 8:53Speaker 2: Pretty good shooter. It's a pretty good shooter.
- 8:57Speaker 1: I can't believe how many times the ball found Chris
- 8:59Speaker 1: start of Derrick Jones Street.
- 9:01Speaker 2: I can't believe.
- 9:02Speaker 1: And I did I say did I did I say this?
- 9:04Speaker 1: I think I said this about Kawhi and not being
- 9:06Speaker 1: aggressive enough. Yeah, he just he just wasn't what we
- 9:09Speaker 1: wanted as a as a fan of this sport. I
- 9:12Speaker 1: gave him so much praise after that one game where
- 9:14Speaker 1: he was electric, and I said it was his best
- 9:16Speaker 1: playoff performance. Since that one game was a game two
- 9:20Speaker 1: versus the Sons a.
- 9:21Speaker 2: Few years back.
- 9:23Speaker 1: He didn't really give us a performance like that since then,
- 9:25Speaker 1: it was like that was all he had in the tank,
- 9:26Speaker 1: and that's kind of sad.
- 9:27Speaker 2: I don't know what happens naturally the.
- 9:28Speaker 1: Clippers, he's already an older star core of James and
- 9:33Speaker 1: Kawhi Kawhi. Leond is healthy for a series for the
- 9:37Speaker 1: first time in a very long time, and they couldn't
- 9:41Speaker 1: take advantage of it. That's kind of kind of sad.
- 9:43Speaker 1: I mean, think about it. Shout out to ok See
- 9:46Speaker 1: and shout out to the Nuggets. I can't wait for
- 9:47Speaker 1: this series and we'll see what happens.
