The Dallas Mavericks Won The Lottery... · Kenny For Real

• 0:00
  Speaker 1: I don't know why we do this.
• 0:01
  Speaker 2: I don't know why we allow sports or the teams
• 0:04
  Speaker 2: that teams that we root for, to be so closely
• 0:06
  Speaker 2: attached to our own mental health.
• 0:08
  Speaker 1: It'll make no sense.
• 0:09
  Speaker 2: This is a kid's game played by giant adults. Why
• 0:12
  Speaker 2: do I care so much? I don't know, but it's
• 0:14
  Speaker 2: bothering me that the battles Mavericks won the NBA lottery.
• 0:18
  Speaker 2: Nothing really against Dallas, it's the other things.
• 0:21
  Speaker 1: You know.
• 0:22
  Speaker 2: Going into the NBA Draft lottery, as I do every
• 0:24
  Speaker 2: single season, I'm really optimistic about the outcome from my
• 0:27
  Speaker 2: Chicago Bulls. I know that we only have a one
• 0:31
  Speaker 2: point seven percent chance to jump up to the first
• 0:33
  Speaker 2: overall pick, but I was alive in two thousand and eight.
• 0:35
  Speaker 2: I was a fan of two thousand and eight when
• 0:36
  Speaker 2: we also had a one point seven percent chance of
• 0:38
  Speaker 2: jumping up and we drafted Derrick Groves. So I'm going
• 0:41
  Speaker 2: to this lottery. I'm chilling right, I'm eating. I'm eating
• 0:44
  Speaker 2: my dinner. Spoiler alert. I have not touched this food
• 0:48
  Speaker 2: like it since we found out who won the lottery.
• 0:51
  Speaker 2: My whole appetite is gone. But I'll get to that.
• 0:54
  Speaker 2: We get to it and it says the Chicago Bulls
• 0:56
  Speaker 2: are picking twelve. I'm like, okay, cool, not that big
• 0:58
  Speaker 2: of a deal. Again, we're talking about one percent chance.
• 1:00
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it does suck, but it's not the end of
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: the world.
• 1:03
  Speaker 2: And then when they say the Dallas Mavericks have jumped
• 1:06
  Speaker 2: into the top four, I almost lost it.
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: I could just feel the blood pressure go up.
• 1:11
  Speaker 2: I could just feel like, Kenny, that's not that big
• 1:13
  Speaker 2: of a deal. Let me explain to you why it is.
• 1:16
  Speaker 2: Because the Chicago Bulls said the exact same record, and
• 1:18
  Speaker 2: I promise this video is not all about the Bulls.
• 1:20
  Speaker 2: I promise you that the Chicago Bulls had the exact
• 1:22
  Speaker 2: same record as the Dallas Mavericks and they split the tiebreaker.
• 1:26
  Speaker 2: So in order for the NBA to figure out who
• 1:29
  Speaker 2: has a one point seven percent chance and who has
• 1:31
  Speaker 2: a one point eight percent chance, they flip a coin
• 1:35
  Speaker 2: literal fifty to fifty chance. The coin was flipped and
• 1:39
  Speaker 2: landed on Dallas means that Dallas has a one point
• 1:41
  Speaker 2: eight and we have a one point seven. Not that
• 1:43
  Speaker 2: big of a deal. Were talking about decimal points of
• 1:45
  Speaker 2: a difference. That coin flip is the reason why we
• 1:50
  Speaker 2: won't have Cooper flag.
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: That coin flip, that fifty to fifty.
• 1:56
  Speaker 2: I have and this is about to say something because
• 1:57
  Speaker 2: I was around when Darrel Rose got injured. I have
• 2:01
  Speaker 2: never felt this heartbroken as a fan. He listen, Cooper
• 2:04
  Speaker 2: Flag might not even be all let in the bag
• 2:05
  Speaker 2: of chips. He might not be all let in the
• 2:07
  Speaker 2: bag of chips, But I have never been this heartbroken
• 2:10
  Speaker 2: as a fan. To say that we had a fifty
• 2:13
  Speaker 2: to fifty chance at this and didn't get it sucks
• 2:18
  Speaker 2: because the Bulls suck in their mediocre And I can't
• 2:23
  Speaker 2: help but to think about one of the coolest days
• 2:27
  Speaker 2: as a Bulls fan in recent history, when Josh Kitty
• 2:31
  Speaker 2: hit that shot on the Lakers.
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: If he misses, guess what, we have Cooper Flag today.
• 2:37
  Speaker 2: If he misses the half court heat, a shot that
• 2:40
  Speaker 2: has missed ninety seven percent of the time, ninety nine
• 2:43
  Speaker 2: percent of the time, if he make misses it, we
• 2:46
  Speaker 2: have Cooper Flag. And I'm not blaming Josh Kitty for that.
• 2:47
  Speaker 2: He's playing basketball the end the day, his goal is
• 2:49
  Speaker 2: to win. But forward to end like that, and for
• 2:52
  Speaker 2: it to be like that is mind blowing to me.
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: Man.
• 2:55
  Speaker 2: It really does change the perspective and everything y'all remember
• 2:58
  Speaker 2: when we were talking when the Bulls were hot, if
• 3:00
  Speaker 2: you will. We're talking about being a pot A fan
• 3:02
  Speaker 2: and a pot B fan. Pot A fans care about
• 3:05
  Speaker 2: the salary cap, they care about trades, they care about
• 3:07
  Speaker 2: the lotter, they care about that. That's the fan I
• 3:08
  Speaker 2: usually am. And then that's pot B, that's like my
• 3:10
  Speaker 2: favorite team wins. And we talked about how your pot
• 3:13
  Speaker 2: B you probably are mentally stable, and if you pot A,
• 3:15
  Speaker 2: then you probably aren't because you care too much about
• 3:17
  Speaker 2: the randomness that is a sport. And then when the
• 3:19
  Speaker 2: Bulls are doing the thing I was in Pot B. Yeah,
• 3:21
  Speaker 2: the bulls look fun. I was an idiot, idiot, idiot
• 3:26
  Speaker 2: because we're picking at twelve, a team that always picks
• 3:29
  Speaker 2: between seven and twelve and not being able to build
• 3:32
  Speaker 2: a goddamn thing.
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: And I was gonna say, this is like, I'm like
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: losing my mind. And again, this is not about the Bulls.
• 3:41
  Speaker 2: I promise you gonna get to the Dallas Mavericks and
• 3:43
  Speaker 2: the Spurs and the seventy six ers and so on
• 3:44
  Speaker 2: and so forth.
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: But I want to remind you what year were saying.
• 3:48
  Speaker 2: Is that the twenty seventeen NBA Draft let me double
• 3:50
  Speaker 2: check that twenty seventeen twenty seventeen NBA draft.
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: Sorry for the text and stuff. You know, a lot
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: of stuff is going on right now. I'm sorry.
• 3:58
  Speaker 2: Not twenty seventeen. It was a year after that twenty
• 4:00
  Speaker 2: eighteen NBA draft. The Bulls were in a tiebreaker, same
• 4:05
  Speaker 2: exact situation, with the same exact team. A coin flip
• 4:09
  Speaker 2: went up, and guess what the Dallas Mavericks won, which
• 4:11
  Speaker 2: means that they drafted Luka Dacic.
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: Well, I mean they make the tray for Luca. You
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: get what I'm saying.
• 4:18
  Speaker 2: So don't get in the coin flip with the Dallas Mavericks,
• 4:19
  Speaker 2: cause they gonna win it every fucking time.
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: I'm heartbroken, like I'm telling.
• 4:24
  Speaker 2: You, bro Hopefully I'll be able to eat dinner, but
• 4:28
  Speaker 2: I'm not expecting it right now.
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: That's how heartbroke it.
• 4:31
  Speaker 2: I really am. And then you can say to me, Kinny,
• 4:34
  Speaker 2: the Bulls don't deserve to win the lottery. They're poorly ran,
• 4:36
  Speaker 2: they have a terrible owner, so on and so forth,
• 4:38
  Speaker 2: and I would say, you probably right, You probably are right.
• 4:42
  Speaker 2: This team has been a playing team for one hundred
• 4:45
  Speaker 2: years in a row. They probably don't deserve to get
• 4:47
  Speaker 2: bailed out by having a generational talent. You are probably right,
• 4:51
  Speaker 2: but you can't convince me that that means that the
• 4:53
  Speaker 2: Dallas Mavericks.
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: Deserve it more.
• 4:56
  Speaker 2: Nico Harrison is like he just got dogged for a
• 4:59
  Speaker 2: more straight He probably will continue to get dogged for
• 5:01
  Speaker 2: the rest of his professional life as the general manager
• 5:04
  Speaker 2: of the Dallas Mavericks. He blinds at Luca Dontas traded
• 5:07
  Speaker 2: him away to the Lakers for stuff. Shout out to
• 5:08
  Speaker 2: Anthony Davis. I don't mean to be dismissive of you,
• 5:11
  Speaker 2: but just for stuff. At the end of the day,
• 5:13
  Speaker 2: he keeps talking about defenseich Championship, Defense win Championship. We
• 5:15
  Speaker 2: believe that we have a good roster. Unfortunately Ad got
• 5:17
  Speaker 2: injured and did Cayrie got injured. Cooper Flag is perfect
• 5:21
  Speaker 2: for his old Matra defense wins Championships. And I know
• 5:24
  Speaker 2: now Dallas Mavericks fans are going through this whole mental
• 5:26
  Speaker 2: hurdle because some of them denounced their their fandom when
• 5:30
  Speaker 2: Luca Doncs got traded.
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: I would assume some of them would be like, actually,
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: it's not that bad around here.
• 5:35
  Speaker 2: Cooper Flagg, our new generational talent we just had one
• 5:38
  Speaker 2: in two thousand and eight. We traded away. Now we
• 5:39
  Speaker 2: get another chance. I'm sure some of those fans will
• 5:42
  Speaker 2: come back. I don't think this winning the lottery and
• 5:44
  Speaker 2: getting Cooper Flag is gonna make people automatically fall in
• 5:47
  Speaker 2: love with Nigo Harrison again, because nobody knows if Cooper
• 5:50
  Speaker 2: Flagg and Anthony Davis and Carrie erv will be able
• 5:52
  Speaker 2: to put it together fast enough of them to be
• 5:54
  Speaker 2: a championship team. But it's insane that he traded away Luca,
• 5:59
  Speaker 2: Luca flames out and the playoffs, and then he wins
• 6:01
  Speaker 2: the lottery to get his perfect prospect. It's almost too
• 6:05
  Speaker 2: good to be true. People are respeculating my mentions. Adam
• 6:09
  Speaker 2: Silver told Nico to trey Luca to a big market,
• 6:11
  Speaker 2: he was gonna reward him.
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: I don't think that's how it works, y'all. I know
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: his conspiracies are always super fun.
• 6:17
  Speaker 2: But the way the draft lottery works right now, it'll
• 6:19
  Speaker 2: be extremely hard to rig because they have the people
• 6:22
  Speaker 2: that are doing the drawing. Then they have like fifteen
• 6:23
  Speaker 2: different sports reporters, and some of those people I know personally,
• 6:26
  Speaker 2: it will be hard to pull the wolve over those eyes.
• 6:29
  Speaker 2: But maybe they can't. Maybe they still do.
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: I don't know, but I highly highly doubt it.
• 6:33
  Speaker 2: So that was Matters jump up ten spots to win
• 6:34
  Speaker 2: the NBA lottery, and now we got to start thinking
• 6:37
  Speaker 2: about what that team could look like. Carrie Irving is
• 6:39
  Speaker 2: of course gonna miss a bolth of the season because
• 6:41
  Speaker 2: he tore his achilles. I'm pretty sure it was. But
• 6:45
  Speaker 2: that just it changes the dynamic of the Western Conference
• 6:47
  Speaker 2: even more.
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: That's I want to, of.
• 6:50
  Speaker 2: Course Cooper Flag to be in Chicago, but I really
• 6:52
  Speaker 2: was rooting for him to end up in the Eastern
• 6:53
  Speaker 2: Conference because the Western Conference is.
• 6:55
  Speaker 1: So damn crazy.
• 6:56
  Speaker 2: And now when we think about the team that jumped
• 6:57
  Speaker 2: up six SPOSI get the second overall picked, the San
• 6:59
  Speaker 2: Antonio spot, they are this is this is our predict
• 7:02
  Speaker 2: this is everybody's prediction. But it's the it's the most
• 7:04
  Speaker 2: clean version of what could happen. Remember the San Antonio
• 7:08
  Speaker 2: Spurs have Victim Miyama from two years ago. It's the
• 7:11
  Speaker 2: Foncastle from this year who just won the Orkie of
• 7:12
  Speaker 2: the Year. They traded traded for dearon Fox and then
• 7:15
  Speaker 2: then they don't have the second overall pick and by
• 7:17
  Speaker 2: all accounts. The second overall pick is Dylan Harper. There's
• 7:19
  Speaker 2: not even a prospect that is even competing with Dylan
• 7:21
  Speaker 2: Harper as of today to be that second overall pick.
• 7:24
  Speaker 2: So we have our guy dr Fox as our lead
• 7:26
  Speaker 2: point guard, and we have Stefoncastle. And you can have
• 7:28
  Speaker 2: the argument, who's a better long term prospects to Foncastle
• 7:31
  Speaker 2: Dylan Harper. I'm not gonna make that argument because I
• 7:33
  Speaker 2: don't say I don't know too much about Dylan Harper
• 7:36
  Speaker 2: as of today.
• 7:38
  Speaker 1: That pick it's probably gonna get moved.
• 7:41
  Speaker 2: This morning, Shoun's surrounding reported this is the first time
• 7:43
  Speaker 2: in Yanson's career that he's even thinking about going to
• 7:45
  Speaker 2: a whole different organization. It's like, oh, that's interesting. You
• 7:47
  Speaker 2: know some teams it should be interested are the San
• 7:49
  Speaker 2: Antonio Spurs, the Houston Rockets, so on and so forth.
• 7:53
  Speaker 2: And for the Spurs to jump up to number two,
• 7:55
  Speaker 2: that makes that possibility, Like the chances are just higher now.
• 7:59
  Speaker 2: It's just high because the Milwaukee Bucks, if they're gonna
• 8:02
  Speaker 2: trade away Gianna's, they could try to say all they want,
• 8:04
  Speaker 2: or we want players that can help us right now,
• 8:06
  Speaker 2: so on and so forth. That's if you can't win
• 8:08
  Speaker 2: Withianna's on his roster. You going to get somebody that.
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: Can do it.
• 8:10
  Speaker 2: Right now, it's just unlikely. Giannis is one of the
• 8:12
  Speaker 2: two to three best players in the entire world. Right
• 8:14
  Speaker 2: So in my mind, that's resetting you for a rebuild.
• 8:17
  Speaker 2: And you can't get your ow first round picks back
• 8:19
  Speaker 2: from the Pelicans, then getting a second overall pick and
• 8:21
  Speaker 2: Dylan Harper is a pretty good consolation prize. Now there's
• 8:24
  Speaker 2: gonna be more. It's not Dylton Harper. I mean, it's
• 8:26
  Speaker 2: not Dylan Harper for Gianna. It's right, you're gonna have
• 8:28
  Speaker 2: to give us something. If you are the Milwaukee Bucks,
• 8:31
  Speaker 2: you're probably asking for Castle as well when you're trying
• 8:33
  Speaker 2: to build together Harper and Castle. I don't know how
• 8:35
  Speaker 2: those negotiations gonna go, but it kind of feel perfectly
• 8:38
  Speaker 2: for the Spurs to be buyers. And this is something
• 8:40
  Speaker 2: we see in the NFL quite quite a bit. Y'all know,
• 8:43
  Speaker 2: I'm not an NFL guy, but when you end up
• 8:45
  Speaker 2: drafting a guy at the quarterback position that is really
• 8:48
  Speaker 2: good to start off with, you have a small window
• 8:50
  Speaker 2: before they are extension eligible or they really hit that
• 8:54
  Speaker 2: salary cap or whatever the hell the NFL is. That's
• 8:56
  Speaker 2: what you see or you saw with like Mahomes eventually
• 8:59
  Speaker 2: right to come in season number two. He's a guy,
• 9:01
  Speaker 2: and it's like, oh, we have a surplus amount of
• 9:03
  Speaker 2: money because we have to pay our quarterbacks this yet
• 9:05
  Speaker 2: it's essentially what's gonna happen with Washington, right Washington has
• 9:09
  Speaker 2: Jaden Daniels, They're gonna have to go in and bye
• 9:10
  Speaker 2: bye bye before Jayden Daniels is super expensive. And I
• 9:13
  Speaker 2: think the same thing can happen with with Victor Wimyama.
• 9:16
  Speaker 2: We already got the dr Fox move, and now this
• 9:17
  Speaker 2: means that Gian's could be here as well. It was
• 9:19
  Speaker 2: a report that Yannas might be wanting to go to
• 9:21
  Speaker 2: a place where no state sales tax or whatever the
• 9:24
  Speaker 2: hell it was. And I've been in Texas. I've been
• 9:27
  Speaker 2: in Texas a few different times. So it just feels
• 9:30
  Speaker 2: like that trade, that trade is gonna happen. It's gonna
• 9:32
  Speaker 2: be some version of that trade to happen, and if
• 9:34
  Speaker 2: it doesn't.
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: I kind of be, I don't know, disappointed.
• 9:37
  Speaker 2: If Giannis goes to the office say okay, I do
• 9:39
  Speaker 2: want to be traded and it's not for this pick
• 9:41
  Speaker 2: and to the Spurs.
• 9:42
  Speaker 1: I will be disappointed for what has worked. I would
• 9:44
  Speaker 1: rather him stay up Milwaukee.
• 9:45
  Speaker 2: I think it's better for the Eastern Conference because if
• 9:47
  Speaker 2: he goes and coop of Flaggers over there, it's what's
• 9:50
  Speaker 2: gonna happen. The Boston Celtics are about to start moving
• 9:54
  Speaker 2: some pieces because of some some other stuff. So who's
• 9:56
  Speaker 2: winning the Eastern Conference, Who's the best player in the East.
• 9:59
  Speaker 2: Who the best four players in the East. Compare them
• 10:01
  Speaker 2: to the best four players in the West, the best
• 10:03
  Speaker 2: floor four players in the West. Of Gianna's requests out,
• 10:05
  Speaker 2: it's gonna be Yoke, It's gonna be Shay, it's gonna
• 10:07
  Speaker 2: be Luca, it's gonna be Gianna's Hello. It's insane. Third
• 10:12
  Speaker 2: overall pick, seventy six ers jump up. Pretty interesting stuff
• 10:16
  Speaker 2: for them. I don't know exactly what they do this pick, right,
• 10:18
  Speaker 2: of course, you know the top two guys are gonna
• 10:19
  Speaker 2: be Cooper, flag than Harper.
• 10:21
  Speaker 1: And some version.
• 10:22
  Speaker 2: Third overall pick. I've seen Ace Bailey, I've seen VJ.
• 10:24
  Speaker 2: I've seen a couple of different guys, and I wonder
• 10:26
  Speaker 2: what the seventy six ers do with it. I like
• 10:28
  Speaker 2: people are asking them do they make a trade with it,
• 10:30
  Speaker 2: And I just don't see that as likely. Maybe maybe, possibly, right,
• 10:33
  Speaker 2: maybe you can get off the Paul George contract and
• 10:36
  Speaker 2: use that pick as a as a sweetener to go
• 10:38
  Speaker 2: get somebody that you enjoy more or probably gonna age better.
• 10:41
  Speaker 1: I have no idea. I have no idea.
• 10:43
  Speaker 2: But there was a time where they were like teetering
• 10:45
  Speaker 2: the tanking thing. It's like, oh, will they be able
• 10:47
  Speaker 2: to keep this picking? And they don't keep the pick,
• 10:48
  Speaker 2: it's going okay, see, and they jumped up to number three,
• 10:51
  Speaker 2: So shout out to the seventy six is for that?
• 10:52
  Speaker 2: I guess this is a really bad night for actual tanking.
• 10:57
  Speaker 2: Utah jumps four, Watson And drops four, New Orleans drops three,
• 11:02
  Speaker 2: Brooklyn drops three, Toronto drops two. If you've ever needed
• 11:07
  Speaker 2: an argument for being anti tank, show them the lobtery
• 11:10
  Speaker 2: from tonight, because those teams, I mean, the Utah Jazz
• 11:15
  Speaker 2: lost sixty five games this year to pick fifth, not
• 11:21
  Speaker 2: much better than that. The Washington Wizards lost sixty four
• 11:24
  Speaker 2: games to pick sixth. This is the that's what the
• 11:28
  Speaker 2: flat knots have done, right. You can lose, lose, lose
• 11:30
  Speaker 2: and be like the the Detroit Pistons, who did end
• 11:33
  Speaker 2: up winning it once, but they were the worst in
• 11:34
  Speaker 2: basketball for three years. They failed to the fifth pick
• 11:36
  Speaker 2: two of those three years.
• 11:37
  Speaker 1: That's that's something.
• 11:40
  Speaker 2: But also, don't be super mediocre where it's like you're
• 11:43
  Speaker 2: fifty fifty fifty win team. You know, I'm gonna say
• 11:46
  Speaker 2: forty nine win team because you can lose a coin
• 11:49
  Speaker 2: flipping up with the twelfth pick has had of the
• 11:50
  Speaker 2: first pick.
• 11:53
  Speaker 1: I don't know what else there is to really say.
• 11:57
  Speaker 2: Coopa Flag has the benefit to go to the Dallas
• 11:59
  Speaker 2: Mavericks and not be not have like the pressure, if
• 12:02
  Speaker 2: you will, to be a one a guy, like if
• 12:04
  Speaker 2: he would have went to you know, Utah or Washington
• 12:07
  Speaker 2: or Brooklyn or one of those type of things. He's
• 12:10
  Speaker 2: gonna be playing alongside Kyrie and Anthony Davis eventually, which
• 12:13
  Speaker 2: is gonna help his development.
• 12:14
  Speaker 1: I think go even further.
• 12:15
  Speaker 2: I'm already looking at them defensively and be like, yeah,
• 12:18
  Speaker 2: this is again what Nico Harrison was talking about, because
• 12:20
  Speaker 2: I think Cooper flat comes in, He's immediately a plus
• 12:22
  Speaker 2: defensive player, higher than a plus defensive player.
• 12:24
  Speaker 1: That's understating. And then him paying alongside.
• 12:26
  Speaker 2: Anthony Davis and some of the other people around him
