• 0:54
  Speaker 1: Imax seventy millimeter theaters. There's one about forty five minutes
• 0:59
  Speaker 1: away from me. I made that trick. I got in
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: there at ten am showing and I watched it, so
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: I had everything set up for the episode. I knew
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: afterwards I was gonna have to come back here. I've
• 1:09
  Speaker 1: had an Aaron I needed to run didn't happen, and
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: then also had to pick up the kiddos get them home.
• 1:14
  Speaker 1: Then I had a little bit more like prep just
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: as far as like setting up the outline for the episode.
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: Had all the stuff, but had to put it in order,
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: and then I was gonna be good man, Bron. Thing
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: happens right before I'm supposed to leave the house. Therefore,
• 1:27
  Speaker 1: I have to get back. I have to change the
• 1:30
  Speaker 1: entire thumbnail. I have to go in change the title.
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: On all the different platforms, We're on all the platforms,
• 1:36
  Speaker 1: by the way, We're on YouTube. We are on Twitch.
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: I don't even know what Twitch means, but we're on there.
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: We're on Facebook, we're on Instagram, we're on x. You
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: can listen to replays of the live podcast wherever you
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: get your podcasts everywhere. It's at Independent, Nick at Independent
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: and Ice no K So yeah, man, So getting home
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: having to switch all that up. That's why we're coming
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: to you a little bit late today. But I appreciate
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: you sticking out with me on this Friday afternoon. Balm
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: and yeah Lebron to the seventy six ers.
• 2:09
  Speaker 2: Yeah, pretty crazy, how it broke. You heard a lot
• 2:12
  Speaker 2: of us today apparently, and you know, through renting a
• 2:15
  Speaker 2: lot of our lives this morning.
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, listen, ay man, he still moves the needle
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: like that, you know, all these years later him making
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: a decision is just as polarizing and just as newsworthy.
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: I don't think it will be quite as impactful, though.
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: So Lebron decides to go to Philly. Uh, this is
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: a decision that he makes after, you know, holding the
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: NBA hostage for a couple of weeks. Many people had
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: basically said it was down to either Miami or Cleveland.
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: These last few days, the Philly chatter was increasing, and
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: clearly it was for a good reason. I listened to
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: Shams talk about it, and he said, you know, he
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: kept reaching out to Philadelphia players, he kept talking through things,
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: and now he does end up taking his talents to
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: the city of brotherly love. So there's a couple of
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: different ways I want to look at this. I actually
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: I want to save the one that I think is
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: the most important. Actually, you know what we're gonna go
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: with it. First, First, we're gonna talk legacy. Secondly, then
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: we're gonna talk just overall basketball fit. Okay, So first
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: and foremost legacy wise, I think, out of all the
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: things that Lebron has done that give you a reason
• 3:37
  Speaker 1: to call him soft or not, put him in the
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: upper upper levels of the echelons with the Michaels, the Kobe's,
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: and the Brunson's. I think that if you uh really
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: take don't don't. I see you laughing at you might
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: not be on camera, but I see you over there.
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: I see you. I said it correctly, the Michaels, the Kobe's,
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: and the Brunson's. Now, if you want to look back
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: to things like the twenty ten twenty eleven finals, if
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: you want to look back to things like deciding to
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: form a super team down in Miami, if you want
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: to look to them doing that to be able to
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: beat Boston, still not be able to beat Boston, and
• 4:27
  Speaker 1: then going and recruiting one of the guys from Boston
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: that mister ray Allen, to come over there to finally
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: get over the hump. If you want to look at
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: deciding to go back to Cleveland when they're a much
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: better team to actually get the job there done, when
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: you couldn't bring them the championship as their prodigital son
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: drafted number one. You couldn't do it. Then you left,
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: You learned how to win. You gotta kumble under your
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: belt where. Don't get me wrong, those two championships in Miami,
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: he was great, but that was after you know, having
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: a Finals where Dwayne Wade was begging him, pleading with
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: him to just wake up and become himself. Then you
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: go back to LA and you know a d comes too,
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: so you're kind of looking at your post career career
• 5:27
  Speaker 1: and setting up the entire you know, you know Lebron
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: media mogul out in Hollywood as a member of the
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: Lakers with the cache haited that brings you and you
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: go out there and you get yourself another championship, albeit
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: in the bubble, with you know, not exactly the same conditions,
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: and I would say a championship that many people put
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: an asterisk next to, though I think that's stuff. Listen,
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: my team won during a strike year during the bubble.
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: I know I would I would still love that shit
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: the same. But all those things are things that some people,
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: depending on how they're inclined, could consider soft. And then
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: this offseason you decide that you have to leave LA.
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: There's a myriad of different reasons why that could be.
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: You weren't happy and it didn't really seem like they
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: wanted you back that much. You say, the decision is
• 6:25
  Speaker 1: not about money, it's about winning. You know, you have
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: the chance to go back home to a team that
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: made it to the Eastern Conference Finals last year and
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: get them over the hump. There's talk that if the
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: Knicks had not won the championship, you would go back
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: there to be able to be the guy who brings
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: the championship back to New York. There's the whole thing
• 6:46
  Speaker 1: of going back to Miami, a team that you already
• 6:48
  Speaker 1: played with. Giannis just went there. You know, it doesn't
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: do too much for the overall le legacy if you
• 6:56
  Speaker 1: go there and win, other than just adding a fifth championship,
• 6:59
  Speaker 1: but there's this synergy. It's a place you've already done
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: it there. You know, you know you and Janna is
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: teaming up. There's some interest there. Instead, you decide to
• 7:12
  Speaker 1: go to the Philadelphia seventy six ers, a team that
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: just acquired the biggest i'd say the biggest player to
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: change teams this offseason, The most seismic move until Lebron's
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: decision was Philadelphia getting traded I'm sorry, Philadelphia getting Jaylen
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: Brown after the Boston Celtics society to blow up their
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: core and so they've already made a big swing. And
• 7:42
  Speaker 1: what this just goes to show you is that He's
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: always been this guy. He's still this guy. He just
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: simply wants to stack the deck in his favor. It's
• 7:59
  Speaker 1: not about what's fun and what could be cool. If
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: that was the case, it would have been Golden State
• 8:03
  Speaker 1: from the writ from the very beginning, it would have
• 8:06
  Speaker 1: been Golden State. They at one point everybody felt like
• 8:11
  Speaker 1: that was the leader in the clubhouse because first and
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: foremost Draymond decided to, you know, not opt in and
• 8:18
  Speaker 1: therefore give them more flexibility. And I think a lot
• 8:21
  Speaker 1: of people have just thought that that was the way
• 8:23
  Speaker 1: it was going to go, because it was the thing
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: that made the most sense basketball wise, overall interest, level
• 8:33
  Speaker 1: of coolness. But at the end of the day, he
• 8:38
  Speaker 1: decides to go to Philly. Philly who was fourth a
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: week ago and like I said, had been creeping up
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: throughout the week. If you listen to the people that
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: clearly were in the know, personally, it's the softest movie
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: could possibly make. It's soft, and it shows in my opinion. God,
• 8:59
  Speaker 1: it's hard for me to say that bron doesn't understand
• 9:01
  Speaker 1: it's something having to do a basketball that he doesn't
• 9:04
  Speaker 1: understand or doesn't get it. But not only it's not
• 9:08
  Speaker 1: even like I look at this and I'm like, man,
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: this is whack. Like, you know, now Philly's going to
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: be so good. They went and they made this super team, Like,
• 9:15
  Speaker 1: you know, this isn't how it's supposed to be. I
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: like it when a team builds a team from scratch
• 9:20
  Speaker 1: and you know, really has a core of guys as
• 9:22
  Speaker 1: opposed to just like assembling Avengers. All those things actually
• 9:25
  Speaker 1: are true. But the part that's not is is that
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: I don't think they're going to be that good adding
• 9:35
  Speaker 1: Lebron to that team, a team where I was already
• 9:39
  Speaker 1: saying with the addition of Jalen Brown that I felt
• 9:43
  Speaker 1: like this was going to be bad for the ascendants
• 9:49
  Speaker 1: to superstardom for a guy who I think has the
• 9:52
  Speaker 1: ability in Tyrese Maxi. But in addition to that, I
• 9:58
  Speaker 1: just see certain basket reasons why this just doesn't make sense. So,
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: first and foremost, there's a lot of mouths to feed.
• 10:10
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna pull up a tweet something that I reposted
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: earlier from my guy xj over at Hot Hand Theory.
• 10:16
  Speaker 1: If you want to learn about basketball, especially from an
• 10:19
  Speaker 1: analytic perspective, go check out at Hot Hand Theory. With
• 10:25
  Speaker 1: my guys x J and Jeff. This is these are
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: some of the smartest people when it comes to basketball
• 10:32
  Speaker 1: that I've ever been around. And you know they're they're
• 10:36
  Speaker 1: they're friends of the show. They do great work over there,
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: and they do a great job of explaining it in
• 10:40
  Speaker 1: a way that's digestible for Neanderthals like me. But he
• 10:45
  Speaker 1: put up a tweet and he said, the only team
• 10:47
  Speaker 1: in the NBA, and this is XJ at Xavier J
• 10:52
  Speaker 1: designs the only team in the NBA with at least
• 10:56
  Speaker 1: four players who were within who were within the top
• 10:59
  Speaker 1: forty in usage Philly. No other team has more than
• 11:03
  Speaker 1: two seventy six ers. Won't miss a beat when embat
• 11:06
  Speaker 1: is out, but they also won't be considerably better when
• 11:09
  Speaker 1: everyone's healthy. This is a flawed roster construction in my opinion,
• 11:15
  Speaker 1: and I retweeted it and said, in Layman's terms, there's
• 11:21
  Speaker 1: only one basketball. There's only one basketball. And at the
• 11:25
  Speaker 1: end of the day, I really want to see how
• 11:27
  Speaker 1: they're going to try and make this work where you're
• 11:29
  Speaker 1: getting the most out of all these heliocentric basketball players.
• 11:36
  Speaker 1: So Edgecomb and Maxi and at times Jalen Brown are
• 11:41
  Speaker 1: going to be doing some standing in the corner, embads
• 11:49
  Speaker 1: entire just effect that he can have on the offensive
• 11:54
  Speaker 1: game if he's not setting a screen for a ball
• 11:57
  Speaker 1: handler who can then hit him on the pop or
• 11:59
  Speaker 1: hit him on the ro or he doesn't have the
• 12:01
  Speaker 1: ball in his hand on his own in an isolation setting.
• 12:07
  Speaker 1: Who's he's not that valuable. Who's gonna get Chris boshed
• 12:12
  Speaker 1: on this team? Who's gonna get Kevin Loved on this team?
• 12:18
  Speaker 2: Ball?
• 12:18
  Speaker 1: And there's some other stats about how much these guys
• 12:21
  Speaker 1: are used to having the ball. What do you got
• 12:22
  Speaker 1: for me?
• 12:23
  Speaker 2: Yes, sir so Sam Quinn from a CBS He had
• 12:27
  Speaker 2: a tweet earlier today after the news broke in. It
• 12:29
  Speaker 2: was about ten to fourteen am our time. Thirty seven
• 12:32
  Speaker 2: players in the NBA season last year touched the ball
• 12:36
  Speaker 2: at least sixty four or sixty eight point four times
• 12:39
  Speaker 2: per game. Five of them now play for the Sixers,
• 12:43
  Speaker 2: and in order, Tyree s Patsey ninety five point three
• 12:47
  Speaker 2: touches a game, DJ Edgecombe seventy point five touches a game,
• 12:52
  Speaker 2: Lebron seventy point one, Joel Embiid sixty nine point four,
• 12:57
  Speaker 2: Shalen Brown sixty eight point four. So yeah, Yeah, there
• 13:00
  Speaker 2: is only one basketball how do you share it?
• 13:04
  Speaker 1: And you have a coach, in my opinion, who is
• 13:07
  Speaker 1: not very inventive, and honestly, I don't really I don't
• 13:10
  Speaker 1: think Nick Nurse is that good. I know that I
• 13:13
  Speaker 1: thought that Mike Brown absolutely rint circles around him last
• 13:16
  Speaker 1: year in the Eastern Conference semifinals. And yeah, this team,
• 13:20
  Speaker 1: as far as them versus the Knicks is concerned. They
• 13:26
  Speaker 1: give me zero hesitation or pause. In that series, You're
• 13:34
  Speaker 1: gonna have Lebron James matched up against Og and Nnobi.
• 13:42
  Speaker 1: Og is going to absolutely lock him up, and Lebron
• 13:45
  Speaker 1: ain't gonna be able to do shit with Og trying
• 13:48
  Speaker 1: to guard him. I just don't see it, man, I
• 13:55
  Speaker 1: don't see it. You know, their bench is still weak,
• 14:00
  Speaker 1: and I'm telling you we're gonna look back on it
• 14:03
  Speaker 1: and be like that dude, MAXI, Man, I really thought
• 14:07
  Speaker 1: he was gonna be like one of them ones. He's
• 14:09
  Speaker 1: a good player, solid player, but he's gonna be one
• 14:12
  Speaker 1: of them one. But he's gonna be one of those
• 14:13
  Speaker 1: guys where you kind of wonder, what if he's gonna
• 14:18
  Speaker 1: get Chris boshed, where he does the things that you
• 14:24
  Speaker 1: ask him to do. Extremely well, but he doesn't become
• 14:34
  Speaker 1: this all encompassing heliocentric force that he clearly has the
• 14:40
  Speaker 1: potential to become. VJ. Edgecomb. VJ Edgecomb is never having
• 14:44
  Speaker 1: He's not gonna have one player run for him the
• 14:46
  Speaker 1: entire season. There's not gonna be any possessions where you're like,
• 14:49
  Speaker 1: all right, VJ, do your thing. Edge COB's gonna be
• 14:51
  Speaker 1: standing in the corner. He's gonna be running. This team
• 14:54
  Speaker 1: is gonna be good in transition. They are going to
• 14:56
  Speaker 1: be good in transition. I mean, uh, Lebron coming up,
• 15:00
  Speaker 1: and you know Edgecomb and Maxi on the wings out ahead,
• 15:03
  Speaker 1: and you know Jalen Brown, you know, trailing and finding
• 15:07
  Speaker 1: a spot. That's pretty that's pretty good. That's pretty good.
• 15:11
  Speaker 1: And you know, if Philly is looking at this anyway
• 15:14
  Speaker 1: other than we have to do everything with Mbead and
• 15:18
  Speaker 1: Lebron to just make sure we get them to the
• 15:21
  Speaker 1: playoffs as healthy as possible. That has to that, Like
• 15:25
  Speaker 1: they should be mapping out a whole game plan where
• 15:28
  Speaker 1: there's you know, no back to backs. You know, there's
• 15:30
  Speaker 1: gonna be like two three times throughout the season where
• 15:32
  Speaker 1: we just rest you for like three games straight. You know, they.
• 15:35
  Speaker 1: I mean, they have to do that definitely with Embid,
• 15:37
  Speaker 1: and they should be doing it with thirty with forty
• 15:40
  Speaker 1: two year old Lebron as well. I'll see it, man,
• 15:45
  Speaker 1: I really don't. I really don't. You know. It makes
• 15:48
  Speaker 1: the East a little bit more interesting for sure. You
• 15:50
  Speaker 1: know what it really is going to be great is
• 15:53
  Speaker 1: that next year in the playoffs, on our way to
• 15:59
  Speaker 1: a back to back t idol, when Jalen Brunson gets
• 16:03
  Speaker 1: to eliminate the guy who was too scared to come
• 16:08
  Speaker 1: here and be the one to bring us back. Brunson
• 16:13
  Speaker 1: embraced that challenge and he got in one championship. Well,
• 16:20
  Speaker 1: I don't think Lebron will ever have, which is like
• 16:24
  Speaker 1: the love of a franchise, an organization and a city.
• 16:29
  Speaker 1: He fans don't love Lebron like that. Laker fans definitely don't.
• 16:34
  Speaker 1: I don't even know if Cleveland fans do. There's a
• 16:36
  Speaker 1: lot of people who love Brin, but when you know
• 16:38
  Speaker 1: he leaves you twice, how much can you love the guy?
• 16:44
  Speaker 1: I saw a video yesterday of Jalen Brunson walking in
• 16:50
  Speaker 1: New York City. The East Coast has been getting the
• 16:54
  Speaker 1: crazy amount of rain here recently, he's walking in New
• 16:57
  Speaker 1: York City and he's walking from type place I presume
• 17:02
  Speaker 1: a restaurant. That's just what I don't know. But he's
• 17:04
  Speaker 1: walking from a restaurant to his vehicle is black chauffeur
• 17:10
  Speaker 1: truck obviously, and as he's walking from the one to
• 17:14
  Speaker 1: the other, there is somebody who like clearly like works
• 17:19
  Speaker 1: at the restaurant or whatever, who gives him like some
• 17:21
  Speaker 1: umbrella coverage as he comes out. And then there's somebody
• 17:26
  Speaker 1: at the truck who is there with the door open
• 17:29
  Speaker 1: and gives him some an umbrella coverage. Between those people
• 17:33
  Speaker 1: in the eight steps that he had to take, random
• 17:36
  Speaker 1: people on this street from New York City were reaching
• 17:40
  Speaker 1: out their umbrellas and putting them over Brunson's head. Bom,
• 17:43
  Speaker 1: have you seen this video?
• 17:47
  Speaker 2: I actually have to seen this video once you once
• 17:49
  Speaker 2: you put it in our notes yesterday for the UH
• 17:51
  Speaker 2: for Today's Jedi, I went and looked it up. I mean,
• 17:54
  Speaker 2: forty sake, that's that's nothing says love like getting an
• 17:58
  Speaker 2: umbrella to even walk you know, a steps?
• 18:00
  Speaker 1: Yo, This is this is literally These people are saying like,
• 18:04
  Speaker 1: oh no, no, I'm out here prepared with an umbrella. But
• 18:06
  Speaker 1: I will give up this umbrella for you, JB. Because
• 18:09
  Speaker 1: you know you you're the fucking King of New York.
• 18:12
  Speaker 1: He's literally like the whole King of New York thing. No,
• 18:15
  Speaker 1: it's real, He's literally the King of New York. This
• 18:18
  Speaker 1: is this is the type of ship that they only
• 18:20
  Speaker 1: do for kings where people are like, oh my god,
• 18:22
  Speaker 1: don't let JB get wet.
• 18:24
  Speaker 2: No, it is. It is very, very real. And the
• 18:27
  Speaker 2: reason I say that too is because you know, even
• 18:30
  Speaker 2: if you go back, this is kind of irrelevant, but
• 18:32
  Speaker 2: also kind of relevant. When Aaron Judge was going through
• 18:35
  Speaker 2: his free agency, if he had signed with the Giants
• 18:37
  Speaker 2: and he had done great, it wouldn't have hit the
• 18:39
  Speaker 2: same as hitting it wouldn't hit the same as he
• 18:41
  Speaker 2: had done it in New York. And now he had
• 18:43
  Speaker 2: his chances to keep blew it and he's not the
• 18:46
  Speaker 2: King of New York. Jalen Brudson clearly is, though.
• 18:49
  Speaker 1: Yeah, And you know what the thing is is that
• 18:51
  Speaker 1: if the Yankees going they win the World Series and
• 18:53
  Speaker 1: and Aaron Judge is amazing in the World Series, in
• 18:56
  Speaker 1: these World Series MVP, that's like a great great Even
• 19:00
  Speaker 1: then I think he still just pulls even with him
• 19:02
  Speaker 1: he doesn't pull ahead because it's the Knicks are different. No,
• 19:04
  Speaker 1: it's a different thing.
• 19:05
  Speaker 2: And and it's Huhn did it first.
• 19:08
  Speaker 1: Nick did it first, and Nick did it for the
• 19:10
  Speaker 1: first time in fifty three years. It's a different thing.
• 19:15
  Speaker 2: Yeah, No, the Nick did it first. They Brunt and
• 19:18
  Speaker 2: b Judge to the punch. So jone will get alove,
• 19:21
  Speaker 2: but he would still be behind Brunts and for New
• 19:23
  Speaker 2: York City popularity king in my opinion.
• 19:26
  Speaker 1: Yeah yeah. And you know, we're gonna talk about Brunson
• 19:28
  Speaker 1: a little bit later and a certain snub. It seems
• 19:31
  Speaker 1: like he's gotten everything, but recently he's been snubbed and
• 19:34
  Speaker 1: it's uh, it is unleashed the fury of nicks Twitter
• 19:38
  Speaker 1: all over a certain video game outfit. We'll get to
• 19:42
  Speaker 1: that here in a second. But yeah, man, I don't
• 19:44
  Speaker 1: what do you think about the Broun thing, because I just,
• 19:46
  Speaker 1: for me, I don't see it, and I'm not and
• 19:47
  Speaker 1: I really I'm not being a hater. I think that
• 19:50
  Speaker 1: I think Philly got better. I think Philly got better overall.
• 19:53
  Speaker 1: I think for him personally, it is just the softest
• 19:55
  Speaker 1: thing that he could possibly do once again, to try
• 19:57
  Speaker 1: to take the path of least resistance. It's just typical Lebron.
• 20:01
  Speaker 1: And then also I think that basketball wise, I don't.
• 20:04
  Speaker 1: I don't think it's the best.
• 20:05
  Speaker 2: Fit, all right, So I'm gonna go from a basketball
• 20:07
  Speaker 2: So I'm gonna start with a basketball standpoint. We've been
• 20:09
  Speaker 2: talking to all this stuff about their offense. What we're
• 20:11
  Speaker 2: not talking about is their defense. They had the so
• 20:16
  Speaker 2: Philly was they had the eleventh. They had allowed the
• 20:18
  Speaker 2: eleventh most points per game in the league last season
• 20:21
  Speaker 2: a little over one fifteen. Maxi is still there and
• 20:25
  Speaker 2: Beads still there. Paul George, who's a good defender, no
• 20:27
  Speaker 2: longer there, but Brown is. However, edge Come's not great,
• 20:31
  Speaker 2: and we don't know what's on their bench, so those
• 20:33
  Speaker 2: defensive points were game allowed could go skyrocketting up. They
• 20:37
  Speaker 2: were only middle of the pack last year until Little
• 20:39
  Speaker 2: Offense to sixteen, so it'll probably bump it up a
• 20:43
  Speaker 2: little bit, but it won't make it a cheat code
• 20:47
  Speaker 2: and some of the other things are missing. They so
• 20:51
  Speaker 2: they traded Paul George, which you know I get for
• 20:54
  Speaker 2: salary matching and playoff payout. Yeah, layoff pa pandemic piece,
• 20:58
  Speaker 2: but he was still the best three point shooter on
• 20:59
  Speaker 2: that team last year. They don't have a single guy
• 21:02
  Speaker 2: last year who made over thirty seven percent on threes.
• 21:05
  Speaker 1: Where's the three point shooting in that in that starting lineup?
• 21:08
  Speaker 1: In today's NBA, you got a starting lineup and there's
• 21:11
  Speaker 1: not one guy there that you would even consider a
• 21:13
  Speaker 1: quote unquote shooter. There's some scorers, there're all there's there's
• 21:16
  Speaker 1: five scores, you know, definitely four like established scorers in
• 21:19
  Speaker 1: the league, and a fifth guy who shows the potential
• 21:22
  Speaker 1: to really be that. But there's not one shooter on
• 21:24
  Speaker 1: the floor. That's not the that's not the modern league,
• 21:27
  Speaker 1: not anymore.
• 21:29
  Speaker 2: Maxy, you know, he can get there, and he's gonna
• 21:32
  Speaker 2: that's probably a part of his game. He's going to
• 21:34
  Speaker 2: have to elevate this year. They're gonna need him to shoot,
• 21:36
  Speaker 2: you know, thirty eight plus percent from downtown, you know,
• 21:40
  Speaker 2: and edgecum is gonna have to probably go thirty six
• 21:42
  Speaker 2: thirty seven pm they do that. I'm saying they're gonna
• 21:46
  Speaker 2: have to not.
• 21:46
  Speaker 1: Yeah, no, no, no, no, I know, I know, I'm
• 21:48
  Speaker 1: just I just you know, I don't see it happening.
• 21:50
  Speaker 2: I don't need it. So there's all that, and then
• 21:54
  Speaker 2: you have team pre throw percentage. Philly was very good
• 21:56
  Speaker 2: at that. Last year, they're fourth in league team three
• 21:58
  Speaker 2: throw percentage, they're a little under their shade, under eighty percent.
• 22:02
  Speaker 2: You know, Jaylen Brown last year right around that seventy
• 22:05
  Speaker 2: nine percent. Bron's out a seventy three seven five percent
• 22:09
  Speaker 2: drop from twenty four to twenty five.
• 22:14
  Speaker 1: Yeah, Bron that he's never been the level of free
• 22:17
  Speaker 1: throw shooter that he needs to be for a guy
• 22:19
  Speaker 1: who has the ball in his hands as much as
• 22:20
  Speaker 1: he does. And I think that you look at this
• 22:24
  Speaker 1: team and you say, Okay, offensively, it feels like it's
• 22:27
  Speaker 1: going to be a lot of like taking turns like
• 22:29
  Speaker 1: your turnmind turn type shit. And then also the other
• 22:32
  Speaker 1: thing that I feel like is that they're going to
• 22:38
  Speaker 1: they don't have Again, Nick Nurse is not the coach
• 22:41
  Speaker 1: to like unlock some like very creative offense where they're
• 22:45
  Speaker 1: able to, you know, just move and everybody's involved and
• 22:50
  Speaker 1: everybody's touched it and feeling good. And and yo, if
• 22:53
  Speaker 1: we get Jaylen Brown, you think he had a tough
• 22:57
  Speaker 1: time being a second option? What option is on this team?
• 23:04
  Speaker 1: Who's the first option on this team? I know this
• 23:10
  Speaker 1: whole Like, who's the leader who's not the leader. All
• 23:12
  Speaker 1: that other bullshit fuck that. I'm totally a believer, and
• 23:15
  Speaker 1: especially after what I just saw with my New York knickerbockers.
• 23:18
  Speaker 1: You need a one, a a clear one, a who
• 23:22
  Speaker 1: everybody knows who it is, and you need a leader,
• 23:27
  Speaker 1: a leader. Now Lebron is a leader. Can't take that
• 23:31
  Speaker 1: away from him. He is a leader. Guys will get
• 23:33
  Speaker 1: behind him. He understands the game, he knows the game.
• 23:35
  Speaker 1: He's going to do his best to just you know,
• 23:37
  Speaker 1: lead by example and also vocally we've seen that from Bron.
• 23:42
  Speaker 1: Is Jalen Brown ready to really take a back seat
• 23:44
  Speaker 1: because it seemed like he wasn't really willing to take
• 23:47
  Speaker 1: a back seat to Tatum.
• 23:49
  Speaker 2: Is he ready to for brink? The most funny ever?
• 23:52
  Speaker 2: Had the other interesting stat for Philly too, With all
• 23:55
  Speaker 2: these guys who touched the ball, they average under three
• 23:58
  Speaker 2: passes per offensive possession last year.
• 24:00
  Speaker 1: Jesus, is that crazy low?
• 24:04
  Speaker 2: That's like bringing that's basically actually bringing up the ball.
• 24:07
  Speaker 2: Give it to embad and just let him do whatever
• 24:09
  Speaker 2: right that's gonna happen.
• 24:10
  Speaker 1: Maybe if embiid gets if he if he gets doubled
• 24:13
  Speaker 1: one kick, like what is embiid gonna do when Lebron
• 24:16
  Speaker 1: is fucking dribbling the ball and doing this thing like
• 24:18
  Speaker 1: like and then I just I just don't see it. Man,
• 24:20
  Speaker 1: this is this is the classic. There's only one basketball situation.
• 24:24
  Speaker 1: It's that, I mean to a T and we've seen
• 24:27
  Speaker 1: this happen. This, this whole super team ship has not
• 24:29
  Speaker 1: worked in a long time. Clearly they feel like they
• 24:31
  Speaker 1: can be the ones to make it happen. I don't
• 24:33
  Speaker 1: see it. I don't see it all right, but you
• 24:38
  Speaker 1: know it'll be interesting for sure. I saw some people saying, like, oh,
• 24:42
  Speaker 1: you know, Nicks Phillies game one, gotta see it. I
• 24:45
  Speaker 1: still say it has to be Philly at Boston has
• 24:48
  Speaker 1: to be to me, that is that it has to
• 24:50
  Speaker 1: be game number one. But you know, hey, if it's
• 24:52
  Speaker 1: like some of these seasons here recently, Lebron probably won't play.
• 24:57
  Speaker 1: He'll probably be you know, just still uh, you know,
• 25:00
  Speaker 1: year and up to get ready last year. Remember he
• 25:02
  Speaker 1: didn't play for quite some time with the Sciatica. There
• 25:04
  Speaker 1: were some people that said that that was part of
• 25:06
  Speaker 1: just their overall game plan to have him fresh by
• 25:08
  Speaker 1: playoff time, which clearly he was, and Lebron listen, Lebron
• 25:11
  Speaker 1: a great season last year. Lebron's good. I think that
• 25:14
  Speaker 1: I like this version of Lebron that he's turning into.
• 25:17
  Speaker 1: You know, I almost feel I find myself rooting for
• 25:20
  Speaker 1: him a little bit more than I have previously. I
• 25:25
  Speaker 1: think that today he threw all that out the window
• 25:27
  Speaker 1: by going to Philly. And not just because I thought
• 25:29
  Speaker 1: I hate Philly, I hate it. I hate Philly as
• 25:34
  Speaker 1: definitely all their sports teams. The Eagles I don't hate
• 25:36
  Speaker 1: because I happened to be an AFC a Jets fan,
• 25:39
  Speaker 1: so therefore I don't have that hatred like a lot
• 25:41
  Speaker 1: of my Giants fans Bergsman Jew But I do you know,
• 25:44
  Speaker 1: I hate the Sixers, and that was something that I
• 25:47
  Speaker 1: has really really geared up these last few years, with
• 25:49
  Speaker 1: the NIXT meeting them three times in the playoffs, beating
• 25:52
  Speaker 1: them all three times, by the way, but you know
• 25:54
  Speaker 1: Joelle embiating the dirty shit that he does. But then
• 25:58
  Speaker 1: the Philadelphia Phillies, There's no I don't think there's a
• 26:00
  Speaker 1: team in sports I hate more than them. Fuck Chase Hutley,
• 26:02
  Speaker 1: Fuck the Phillies and everything else that the guy that
• 26:05
  Speaker 1: they have to do with. I fucked him that that
• 26:08
  Speaker 1: I fucked that park, that that frigging little bandbox, a
• 26:11
  Speaker 1: little league park that they play in. Fuck their fans,
• 26:14
  Speaker 1: fuck all of them. Okay, and the best Chiefs Thanks
• 26:16
  Speaker 1: are made in Jersey. But I dude, man, I I can't.
• 26:22
  Speaker 1: It's just so this was not to me about It
• 26:27
  Speaker 1: wasn't about legacy, the whole thing about like, oh, if
• 26:29
  Speaker 1: the Knicks had lost, he would have went there. If
• 26:30
  Speaker 1: that's true, it's because he thinks the Knicks are really
• 26:32
  Speaker 1: that good. Clearly, decision he made was this is the
• 26:35
  Speaker 1: easiest way for me to try and win. And he's
• 26:37
  Speaker 1: not a two year deal, player option for the second
• 26:39
  Speaker 1: year obviously player option. He could walk away from that.
• 26:42
  Speaker 1: But I wonder if that is a signal that he
• 26:46
  Speaker 1: really does want to have like a couple more years
• 26:48
  Speaker 1: of playing and this is not like his last year
• 26:50
  Speaker 1: in the SWANSA. I don't know. We'll see, because I
• 26:53
  Speaker 1: don't believe. I don't believe that bron will miss the
• 26:57
  Speaker 1: opportunity of a farewell tour. Seems like that's straight up
• 27:02
  Speaker 1: his alley, like he can't wait to have a farewell tour.
• 27:04
  Speaker 1: So if that's the case, then obviously he's going to announce,
• 27:07
  Speaker 1: you know, at least early on in that last season
• 27:10
  Speaker 1: that it is his last season, so everybody can can
• 27:13
  Speaker 1: give him his due. But yeah, man, you know, we'll see,
• 27:16
  Speaker 1: we'll see. It's gonna be interesting. So I spent my
• 27:20
  Speaker 1: morning watching The Odyssey Christopher Nolan, who I love obviously
• 27:26
  Speaker 1: Matt Damon, even if he doesn't hit all the time.
• 27:29
  Speaker 1: I don't think anybody can't talk about at least a
• 27:32
  Speaker 1: couple Matt Damon movies that they really like. And I
• 27:35
  Speaker 1: went and saw seventy millimeter Imax. There's only twenty five
• 27:40
  Speaker 1: of those in the country. I went to one that's
• 27:42
  Speaker 1: about forty five minutes away from me in Mesa, Arizona.
• 27:45
  Speaker 1: And the very first like scene as it starts, the
• 27:49
  Speaker 1: music comes on and there's been there's some bass, and
• 27:53
  Speaker 1: in the Imax, it's like I immediately like it's like
• 27:58
  Speaker 1: my seat shake, like you know, like it's there are
• 28:02
  Speaker 1: certain parts in the movie where the sound was so
• 28:04
  Speaker 1: intense that I was like, this may be the loudest
• 28:06
  Speaker 1: I've ever heard anything in my entire life.
• 28:09
  Speaker 2: I am.
• 28:12
  Speaker 1: I love Greek mythology. I love it. I've loved it
• 28:14
  Speaker 1: since I was a little kid. And we started learning
• 28:15
  Speaker 1: about it in school. I've continued to learn about it.
• 28:18
  Speaker 1: I watched like like, I don't even want I'm not
• 28:20
  Speaker 1: even in the anime. But Blood of Zeus is an
• 28:24
  Speaker 1: anime style cartoon that is based in Greek mythology. It's
• 28:33
  Speaker 1: on Netflix. I think there's been three seasons. It's excellent.
• 28:36
  Speaker 1: I also have a thirteen year old who she's really
• 28:38
  Speaker 1: in the Greek mythology. She was excited for me to
• 28:40
  Speaker 1: see the movie because she wanted to. She wanted because
• 28:41
  Speaker 1: I have to give the okay for her to be
• 28:43
  Speaker 1: able to go see it because it's raight our. I
• 28:44
  Speaker 1: got to see it first. And you know, I listen
• 28:46
  Speaker 1: to my kids. I certainly just like you know, certain
• 28:50
  Speaker 1: violence things like that, but like there's certain levels of
• 28:52
  Speaker 1: like violence and gore, and then there's certain subject matter
• 28:54
  Speaker 1: that I don't think their young minds need to see
• 28:56
  Speaker 1: just yet. I told her today when I picked herup
• 28:58
  Speaker 1: from school, she could see that movie. You can see
• 29:00
  Speaker 1: the movie and it's a two hours and fifty two
• 29:02
  Speaker 1: minute running time. And I went by. I went by
• 29:05
  Speaker 1: myself and it was dope.
• 29:09
  Speaker 2: I loved it.
• 29:10
  Speaker 1: What a movie man, I mean the and I am
• 29:13
  Speaker 1: I am not the part. First of all, I don't
• 29:15
  Speaker 1: even like seeing movies in theaters. It's gotta really be
• 29:18
  Speaker 1: a movie, you get me. Uh really, the only movies
• 29:20
  Speaker 1: that I've religiously seen in theaters is me and my
• 29:23
  Speaker 1: dad have a thing with The Mission Impossibles. We always
• 29:26
  Speaker 1: go see those right when they come out in theaters.
• 29:28
  Speaker 1: And after that some of the Marvel movies. Like my
• 29:31
  Speaker 1: kids really in the Spider Man. Now, I grew up
• 29:32
  Speaker 1: loving Spider Man. We've watched the cartoon from the nineties together,
• 29:35
  Speaker 1: which the cartoon from the nineties, Spider Man is the
• 29:37
  Speaker 1: greatest cartoon, like like like superhero cartoon. It's I actually
• 29:42
  Speaker 1: think it's even better than the X Men cartoon that
• 29:44
  Speaker 1: was around that same time. Spider Man's even better. And
• 29:51
  Speaker 1: you know those Spider Man move Spider Man like, I'll
• 29:53
  Speaker 1: see that next week. Me and my son are super stoked.
• 29:55
  Speaker 1: We'll go see the Spider Man movie.
• 29:56
  Speaker 2: Right.
• 29:57
  Speaker 1: But like, I don't really I don't really like to
• 29:58
  Speaker 1: see movie theaters.
• 29:59
  Speaker 2: Man.
• 29:59
  Speaker 1: I like to be able to get up and you know,
• 30:02
  Speaker 1: go to the bathroom or just control my setting a
• 30:08
  Speaker 1: little bit more, be able to have whatever food or
• 30:11
  Speaker 1: drink at my fingertips without having to, you know, pay
• 30:15
  Speaker 1: exorbitant prices for garbage versions of all these foods. There's
• 30:19
  Speaker 1: anybody who starts to tell me any food other than
• 30:22
  Speaker 1: popcorn at the movie theaters is good, You're bugging. It's
• 30:24
  Speaker 1: all garbage. I'm not really a big candy guy, so
• 30:27
  Speaker 1: I'm not gonna sit there and eat candy. It's just
• 30:28
  Speaker 1: not not my thing. Thank my dad for that. And
• 30:33
  Speaker 1: so I really don't like seeing movies in theaters. But
• 30:35
  Speaker 1: then it was like everybody was like, yeah, you gotta
• 30:37
  Speaker 1: see it. And then it was like, well, it was
• 30:38
  Speaker 1: shot this particular way, and I even saw a couple
• 30:40
  Speaker 1: videos showing that, like they literally cut parts of the
• 30:43
  Speaker 1: screen off that you can't see the movie the way
• 30:46
  Speaker 1: it was intended if you don't see it. And I'm like, yo,
• 30:48
  Speaker 1: I live close enough to one of these fucking theaters.
• 30:50
  Speaker 1: I gotta go. So I went out there and it
• 30:53
  Speaker 1: was absolutely worth it. It's just a it's such an
• 30:58
  Speaker 1: epic story there is It's hard to find a movie
• 31:04
  Speaker 1: where there's a hero in modern times that you can't
• 31:09
  Speaker 1: say was loosely based on the Odyssey.
• 31:14
  Speaker 2: It is.
• 31:15
  Speaker 1: I mean, other than like the Bible, has there ever
• 31:17
  Speaker 1: been a story that has been told across the entire
• 31:21
  Speaker 1: world and been this well recognized, this many times duplicated,
• 31:28
  Speaker 1: and just this well known. It's fantastic. I loved it
• 31:30
  Speaker 1: when I was a kid reading it in school, even
• 31:32
  Speaker 1: though that version that we read in school is not
• 31:34
  Speaker 1: the real version. The real versions like seventeen hundred pages.
• 31:36
  Speaker 1: I can't say I've read that. And I listened to
• 31:41
  Speaker 1: Flagrant on the way home, and they talked about some
• 31:43
  Speaker 1: of the some of the differences and some of the
• 31:45
  Speaker 1: liberties that Nolan took in this version. First of all,
• 31:48
  Speaker 1: anytime it's a movie, you're gonna take liberties. Secondly, this
• 31:52
  Speaker 1: is a like realize, this was like an oral tradition
• 31:55
  Speaker 1: passed down over times, and even now the exact version
• 32:01
  Speaker 1: and exactly how things went. It's all mythology, and there's
• 32:05
  Speaker 1: multiple versions. So them switching it up a little bit
• 32:08
  Speaker 1: to make it more adaptable and more consumable on the screen,
• 32:12
  Speaker 1: that doesn't bother me. I'm not somebody who's like, I'm
• 32:14
  Speaker 1: some fucking you know, Greek mythology historian, and you and
• 32:20
  Speaker 1: I love you know, the Odyssey and the Iliad, and
• 32:23
  Speaker 1: you know, I've posters of Homer, which by the way,
• 32:26
  Speaker 1: no one, there's no there's no like confirmation that Homer
• 32:29
  Speaker 1: was even a real person. Homer might have been a
• 32:31
  Speaker 1: group of people from a particular place that that that
• 32:33
  Speaker 1: continued these oral histories, or it might have been a
• 32:36
  Speaker 1: person who knows there's not. The whole story of who
• 32:39
  Speaker 1: Homer actually even is is very, very cloudy. But there
• 32:46
  Speaker 1: are certain points that you know, there's certain things that
• 32:48
  Speaker 1: you remember from the story of you know this, there's
• 32:52
  Speaker 1: the story growing up that we all got that you're like,
• 32:54
  Speaker 1: you're looking forward to seeing. I don't think it's a
• 32:56
  Speaker 1: spoiler alert if I say that there's a Cyclops at
• 32:59
  Speaker 1: some point in the movie, and I mean you're expecting
• 33:01
  Speaker 1: the Cydeclops. You're getting ready for the Cyclops. And fuck man,
• 33:04
  Speaker 1: did it pay off. It was fucking awesome. It did
• 33:08
  Speaker 1: a perfect job of giving you things that are mystical,
• 33:12
  Speaker 1: things that are like, oh my god, you know, this
• 33:14
  Speaker 1: is not something that exists on earth as far as
• 33:17
  Speaker 1: we know, definitely not in modern times, making it look
• 33:21
  Speaker 1: real enough, and then making things look gritty and barbaric
• 33:23
  Speaker 1: enough to show the times. I love movies or shows
• 33:29
  Speaker 1: that give you that grittiness of a time long ago
• 33:34
  Speaker 1: and make you really feel it. Some great examples Brave
• 33:38
  Speaker 1: Heart probably my second favorite movie of all time, Claudiator
• 33:42
  Speaker 1: super high on my list, as well TV shows, Rome,
• 33:46
  Speaker 1: Game of Thrones. There's been like, Okay, Troy is a
• 33:52
  Speaker 1: movie people love Troy bomb. Well, how do you feel
• 33:54
  Speaker 1: about Troy?
• 33:59
  Speaker 2: I actually never saw I. Yeah, I'm not a big
• 34:02
  Speaker 2: movie guy either. I don't to theaters very much.
• 34:04
  Speaker 1: You fucking you don't go anywhere unless there it's a
• 34:07
  Speaker 1: it's a ballpark, a stadium, or an arena.
• 34:10
  Speaker 2: That's not true. Ever, now that I go to a
• 34:12
  Speaker 2: bar fair to watch it for my own games, you know.
• 34:17
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, So never saw Troy. Okay, Troy was a
• 34:21
  Speaker 1: movie that everybody made a huge deal about. Brad Pitt
• 34:24
  Speaker 1: and it. Oh, remind me to tell you about the
• 34:26
  Speaker 1: trailer from the Brad the Brad Pitt trailer from that
• 34:29
  Speaker 1: I saw today in the Coming Attractions. But Troy was
• 34:34
  Speaker 1: a movie that everybody there is I would say, is
• 34:36
  Speaker 1: overall pretty well received. Like what is the I'm looking
• 34:40
  Speaker 1: up what is Troy? When you go and you look
• 34:43
  Speaker 1: at it on like Rotten Tomatoes and this type of ship,
• 34:45
  Speaker 1: what kind of ratings? It looks seven point three on IMDb.
• 34:49
  Speaker 1: You know Troy, it's a it's a it's a pretty
• 34:50
  Speaker 1: well received movie. Overall, Rotten Tomatoes has fifty three percent. Okay.
• 34:54
  Speaker 1: I didn't think Troy was that good personally. Okay. So
• 34:58
  Speaker 1: the biggest issue for me with Troy was the fact
• 35:01
  Speaker 1: that it was rated PG thirteen. And you can't show
• 35:05
  Speaker 1: me a movie about those times and give it the
• 35:09
  Speaker 1: level of grittiness and it's barbarism a word, barbaricism, whatever
• 35:16
  Speaker 1: the fuck the word is. You can't give me that.
• 35:19
  Speaker 2: Level barbaric I believe is the term.
• 35:22
  Speaker 1: No, but that but that's not but that's that that
• 35:23
  Speaker 1: doesn't fit with whatever. You can't give me a level
• 35:25
  Speaker 1: of barbaric. That's not saying you can't. You can't show
• 35:29
  Speaker 1: me how barbaric the times were is a way to
• 35:30
  Speaker 1: say it. But there there should be some barbarism. And
• 35:32
  Speaker 1: if there's not, I'm inventing it. It's poetic license. You
• 35:35
  Speaker 1: can't give me the level of barbarism. It sounds like
• 35:39
  Speaker 1: sounds like somebody's ability to give a really good haircut. No,
• 35:42
  Speaker 1: but uh yeah, you can't give me that with the
• 35:44
  Speaker 1: PG thirteen You need you need r and this movie, man,
• 35:50
  Speaker 1: the effects, the visually the fucking audio of the sound.
• 35:54
  Speaker 1: I mean, Jesus, I mean it just it was unbelievable.
• 35:57
  Speaker 1: It was so good. I really really enjoyed it. I'm
• 36:03
  Speaker 1: contemplating whether or not I want to see it a
• 36:07
  Speaker 1: second time when my daughter goes to see it, because
• 36:11
  Speaker 1: it it was good enough, and I feel like it's
• 36:15
  Speaker 1: probably some things that I missed, And Okay, these are
• 36:18
  Speaker 1: a couple of things that are hard to do. When
• 36:21
  Speaker 1: you know how something's going to end, making you feel
• 36:24
  Speaker 1: compelled and anxious is hard to do. This movie did that.
• 36:30
  Speaker 1: When you when you're when you're watching something that is
• 36:38
  Speaker 1: supposed to you're going into it saying like this is
• 36:40
  Speaker 1: supposed to be so big, it's going to be so epic,
• 36:44
  Speaker 1: and for it to feel that big and that epic
• 36:46
  Speaker 1: without like feeling like campy and like it's like trying
• 36:49
  Speaker 1: to master and commander. Perfect example of a movie that
• 36:54
  Speaker 1: tried so hard to be so big and so epic.
• 36:56
  Speaker 1: I was like, dude, I saw that ship when I
• 36:58
  Speaker 1: was in college. Me and my boy Scott, we were
• 36:59
  Speaker 1: like Russell Crow on the high seat. It's gonna be
• 37:02
  Speaker 1: like Gladiator in the high seats. It's gonna be great.
• 37:04
  Speaker 1: That movie fucking sucked.
• 37:06
  Speaker 2: It was horrible.
• 37:07
  Speaker 1: We're sitting there where you're like, yo, and my man
• 37:10
  Speaker 1: Sky is somebody. He's this dude sees every fucking movie
• 37:12
  Speaker 1: it ever comes out, and I'm my bad, I hit you.
• 37:20
  Speaker 1: We might have walked out on I think we might
• 37:22
  Speaker 1: have walked down on it. Yeah, it was that bad.
• 37:24
  Speaker 1: I'm telling you though, this movie it felt that big.
• 37:27
  Speaker 1: Another thing that is really hard to do is have
• 37:30
  Speaker 1: a movie that has a two hour and fifty two
• 37:32
  Speaker 1: minute running time that doesn't feel like it drags. Did
• 37:35
  Speaker 1: not feel like it dragged. The first time I looked
• 37:37
  Speaker 1: at my clock, I was like, oh shit, we're already
• 37:40
  Speaker 1: an hour and a half in. So it didn't drag, man,
• 37:44
  Speaker 1: And there's a lot of build up, but they it's
• 37:47
  Speaker 1: somehow yet still doesn't drag. It's you know, we're moving,
• 37:49
  Speaker 1: we're moving, we're moving. When you well, you take seventeen
• 37:51
  Speaker 1: hundred pages and you put it into fucking three hours,
• 37:53
  Speaker 1: I guess you know it's got to be fairly action packed.
• 37:56
  Speaker 1: But it wasn't. Like it's not action packed like a
• 38:00
  Speaker 1: like you know, like a big like a fucking Bad
• 38:02
  Speaker 1: Boys or a Mission Impossible anything. It's not like, obviously
• 38:05
  Speaker 1: it's not like that. There is some awesome, awesome action
• 38:09
  Speaker 1: scenes and some just awesome like scenes of like even
• 38:13
  Speaker 1: just dealing with the elements in the high seas and shit.
• 38:17
  Speaker 1: And there is some disturbing somewhat disturbing scenes too, but
• 38:20
  Speaker 1: not too bad. And some of the dialogue is amazing.
• 38:25
  Speaker 1: And the way that it the way it's not totally consequential.
• 38:29
  Speaker 1: You're doing some jumping back and forth, but it's not
• 38:31
  Speaker 1: like a fucking pulp fiction where you're like, ah, what's
• 38:34
  Speaker 1: going on here? It's not like that at all. But
• 38:36
  Speaker 1: it's not completely linear, fairy good movie. It was awesome. Wait,
• 38:39
  Speaker 1: so bam, will you go see this movie in theaters?
• 38:41
  Speaker 1: You have no interest?
• 38:42
  Speaker 2: I actually do want to see this movie in theaters.
• 38:44
  Speaker 2: I mean the way you were hyping it up, way
• 38:45
  Speaker 2: other guys are happing up, I do want to go
• 38:46
  Speaker 2: see in theaters. You gotta find that. I'm acx. I
• 38:49
  Speaker 2: did just want to go back. Barbarism is actually the
• 38:51
  Speaker 2: correct term that you were using.
• 38:52
  Speaker 1: Let's go, man, let's go.
• 38:54
  Speaker 2: I did a little google. I looked at barbarianism and
• 38:56
  Speaker 2: it came up barbarism.
• 38:58
  Speaker 1: Man, Come on, I see this is the thing. Bro,
• 39:02
  Speaker 1: I'm not you know, you know, I'm not the smartest
• 39:05
  Speaker 1: guy in the world. I'm really not. But uh, every
• 39:08
  Speaker 1: once in a while I get one, right. I gotta
• 39:11
  Speaker 1: be a little more confident, see, I see, I gotta
• 39:13
  Speaker 1: I gotta say that ship with my chest next time. Yo, man,
• 39:19
  Speaker 1: I still can't believe Lebron made that move. I'm interested.
• 39:23
  Speaker 1: I'm interested now to hear what like some of the
• 39:26
  Speaker 1: different pundits and shit like that have to say. Speaking
• 39:28
  Speaker 1: of pundits, on the way home from the movie, listen
• 39:34
  Speaker 1: to Ryan Clark on The Pivot. I really like Ryan Clark.
• 39:39
  Speaker 1: I always have. I made that Claire in the last one,
• 39:41
  Speaker 1: and I'm a fan of his work. I was a
• 39:43
  Speaker 1: fan of him as a player. I'm a fan of
• 39:44
  Speaker 1: his work on TV. I know a lot of people
• 39:46
  Speaker 1: don't feel that way.
• 39:47
  Speaker 2: You know.
• 39:47
  Speaker 1: I put up a real uh you know, of me
• 39:51
  Speaker 1: talking about Clark last time, and there's so many people
• 39:53
  Speaker 1: who just coming and like, oh, well, you know, his
• 39:57
  Speaker 1: his take sting, or he's a race bab there bump up, uh.
• 40:04
  Speaker 1: I you know, listen the way that he handled it
• 40:07
  Speaker 1: on the Pivot, him at certain points getting emotional talking
• 40:11
  Speaker 1: about how much he loved his job, talking about how
• 40:13
  Speaker 1: much he prepared for talking about how much love he's
• 40:15
  Speaker 1: gotten from somebody. He's so well respected in the industry,
• 40:18
  Speaker 1: by athletes, by other people that are TV media personalities.
• 40:25
  Speaker 1: I think that to me, that says a lot more
• 40:27
  Speaker 1: to me than the fucking the random Fox or Twitter
• 40:29
  Speaker 1: or even some of the people that I may know
• 40:31
  Speaker 1: that don't like him very much. He's well respected, He
• 40:35
  Speaker 1: does a good job. You might disagree with him, you
• 40:39
  Speaker 1: might think that he is this or that, and that
• 40:42
  Speaker 1: might bother you. I think that probably said. If you
• 40:45
  Speaker 1: disagree with him, then whatever's that's the whole reason that
• 40:48
  Speaker 1: he puts out content is to be agreed with or
• 40:50
  Speaker 1: disagreed with, you know what I mean, like to give
• 40:52
  Speaker 1: his perspective on it. But I think he's a dude
• 40:54
  Speaker 1: who does it with integrity. I think he's a good
• 40:57
  Speaker 1: guy to the people that are around him, and I
• 41:01
  Speaker 1: think he's very well respected amongst his colleagues. And you
• 41:05
  Speaker 1: can see why when you listen to this episode of
• 41:07
  Speaker 1: The Pivot Espien did him dirty. I don't care what
• 41:10
  Speaker 1: you say, not just the whole thing about him getting
• 41:14
  Speaker 1: told during a commercial break of NFL Live that he
• 41:18
  Speaker 1: had been let go. But also he goes into some
• 41:22
  Speaker 1: details I'm doing a podcast there she knew that she
• 41:26
  Speaker 1: just forgot. But also the the fact that he had
• 41:35
  Speaker 1: some signs leading up to it some different times where
• 41:39
  Speaker 1: you know, they change the schedule up on him and
• 41:41
  Speaker 1: like don't even let him know. He has to call
• 41:44
  Speaker 1: them and be like hey, like I'm I'm one this
• 41:46
  Speaker 1: time this time, and they can't even hit him up
• 41:48
  Speaker 1: and be like, hey, you know, this is the decision
• 41:52
  Speaker 1: that we've made, Like he has to reach out to them.
• 41:53
  Speaker 1: And these are people from get Up, which he helped build.
• 41:58
  Speaker 1: At one point get Up was failing and then they
• 42:01
  Speaker 1: kind of switched things up and he was part of
• 42:04
  Speaker 1: that crew that really got get Up getting back to
• 42:07
  Speaker 1: the point to where it is now. I guarantee you
• 42:09
  Speaker 1: Greene would say that I know green loves him and
• 42:11
  Speaker 1: loves having him on, and so I think this was
• 42:17
  Speaker 1: a decision that was a clear message to anybody who
• 42:20
  Speaker 1: wants to work for ESPN and Legacy Media at this point,
• 42:25
  Speaker 1: which is if there's certain issues that you want to
• 42:30
  Speaker 1: bring up and you want to talk about, you're not
• 42:32
  Speaker 1: going to be here. It is clear now that there's
• 42:38
  Speaker 1: nowhere in legacy media where you can point out racism,
• 42:47
  Speaker 1: the plight of minorities, you cannot bring that up. If
• 42:52
  Speaker 1: that is something that is already a story, you can
• 42:54
  Speaker 1: talk about it. If you're the person who is consistently
• 42:57
  Speaker 1: bringing it up and pointing it out, you're gone. You're
• 43:01
  Speaker 1: not going to be here. I think we've seen this
• 43:05
  Speaker 1: in sports for quite some time. To give a little
• 43:09
  Speaker 1: bit of a history lesson on me and my super
• 43:11
  Speaker 1: producer Bomb's relationship the year that cal that Colin Kaepernick
• 43:18
  Speaker 1: was clearly blackballed from the NFL. If you want to
• 43:23
  Speaker 1: look at that any other way, you're being blind or
• 43:25
  Speaker 1: are you?
• 43:26
  Speaker 2: Are you?
• 43:26
  Speaker 1: You personally don't want to identify and acknowledge the truth.
• 43:35
  Speaker 1: He was blackballed by the NFL for a peaceful protest. NFL,
• 43:40
  Speaker 1: the owners, their sponsors, they came in, they said, we
• 43:44
  Speaker 1: do not like this. They said, okay, we'll make sure
• 43:46
  Speaker 1: he don't get a job. It was it was so
• 43:48
  Speaker 1: clear to us, to anybody who's willing to look at
• 43:52
  Speaker 1: it through a truthful lens. But it was so clear
• 43:59
  Speaker 1: that the NFL also settled with him and gave him
• 44:01
  Speaker 1: sixty million dollars rather than go through a court case
• 44:03
  Speaker 1: where he was going to prove that that was the
• 44:05
  Speaker 1: case and their overall reputations were going to be I
• 44:11
  Speaker 1: don't know sullied a little bit more, but I don't
• 44:13
  Speaker 1: really think they give a fuck, to be honest. But
• 44:16
  Speaker 1: during that year that he was blackballed, I didn't watch
• 44:19
  Speaker 1: the NFL. I did not watch one game that entire season.
• 44:22
  Speaker 1: I feel like the biggest the biggest vote that you
• 44:27
  Speaker 1: cast is with the dollar that you spend and the
• 44:29
  Speaker 1: attention that you give. And I totally admit that I'm
• 44:34
  Speaker 1: somewhat of a fraud now because I only took off
• 44:36
  Speaker 1: that one year. I didn't just just just sign it
• 44:38
  Speaker 1: off forever. I admit that that's true, that's real. But
• 44:46
  Speaker 1: I think it has been super clear that the NFL
• 44:53
  Speaker 1: does not want this around their game. They do not
• 44:56
  Speaker 1: the people that make decisions. They do not want open
• 44:59
  Speaker 1: discourse about the roles that race may play in sports,
• 45:07
  Speaker 1: and in the NFL particularly. But ESPN has now shown
• 45:10
  Speaker 1: that they don't want that around their airwaves at all,
• 45:17
  Speaker 1: because Ryan Clark and coming out and talking about you know,
• 45:21
  Speaker 1: Angel Reese and Ryan Clark, you know, consistently being somebody
• 45:27
  Speaker 1: who is willing to point out when he thinks that
• 45:29
  Speaker 1: race is at play. I think was a major factor
• 45:32
  Speaker 1: in him getting fired. And so that year, going back
• 45:35
  Speaker 1: a little bit to where I didn't watch the NFL,
• 45:39
  Speaker 1: we had a jersey day at work. Baum and I
• 45:41
  Speaker 1: used to work together at a tech company, and we
• 45:43
  Speaker 1: had a jersey day at work, and I borrowed as
• 45:45
  Speaker 1: Kaepernick jersey and I got my share of flack and
• 45:53
  Speaker 1: or some of it unsaid, but just people notice and
• 46:00
  Speaker 1: seeing what I was saying by wearing that jersey and listen,
• 46:07
  Speaker 1: I'm not trying to make it like it was like
• 46:11
  Speaker 1: people were like up in arms because I wore a
• 46:13
  Speaker 1: cap in a jersey or anything like that. But I
• 46:14
  Speaker 1: had a couple conversations about it, and I had some
• 46:16
  Speaker 1: other people that, you know, I probably wasn't cool enough
• 46:18
  Speaker 1: and they definitely didn't have the balls enough to say
• 46:20
  Speaker 1: what they felt really felt, but I felt it, and
• 46:26
  Speaker 1: I just think, man, we're just we're continuing to see that,
• 46:29
  Speaker 1: and this is a way that I feel like we
• 46:31
  Speaker 1: are regressing as a people and specifically as a country,
• 46:35
  Speaker 1: where these same people that will scream for freedom of
• 46:39
  Speaker 1: speech when it is applicable and it is advantageous to them,
• 46:46
  Speaker 1: those same people will do everything to take that freedom
• 46:49
  Speaker 1: of speech away from people who point out things that
• 46:54
  Speaker 1: either they don't agree with or make them uncomfortable. And
• 46:57
  Speaker 1: I think it's a sad and it's a scary place,
• 47:00
  Speaker 1: especially where in the world it's supposed to be journalism.
• 47:03
  Speaker 1: This is this is not where we're going in the
• 47:05
  Speaker 1: wrong direction.
• 47:08
  Speaker 2: With the other thing. I was going to say, though,
• 47:10
  Speaker 2: this is not the first time it's happened at ESPN.
• 47:13
  Speaker 2: Got shout out Jamel Hill and Carry Champion here who
• 47:16
  Speaker 2: kind of got washed out like that as well. So
• 47:20
  Speaker 2: this is this is definitely not a new thing for
• 47:22
  Speaker 2: this network.
• 47:23
  Speaker 1: The slight difference, in my opinion is this is that
• 47:29
  Speaker 1: no matter how many people that you see on these
• 47:33
  Speaker 1: different you know platforms coming in in the comments, whether
• 47:37
  Speaker 1: it be in the comments of that reel or the
• 47:41
  Speaker 1: comments after he got you know, fired by ESPN the
• 47:45
  Speaker 1: tweet that announced it, there's so many people who are
• 47:48
  Speaker 1: anti him. What you can't argue is that he's extremely popular.
• 47:53
  Speaker 1: Like he's extremely popular in that space. If you ask
• 47:57
  Speaker 1: most people to say the top five on air, you know,
• 48:03
  Speaker 1: in front of the camera analysts of football, a lot
• 48:06
  Speaker 1: of people would say Ryan Clark and a lot of people,
• 48:09
  Speaker 1: like I said, in that industry respect him so much.
• 48:12
  Speaker 1: Jameel hill I like Jamail hill. I don't love Jamil Hill.
• 48:15
  Speaker 1: I liked to Mail hill I. I was always she was.
• 48:20
  Speaker 1: She was in that Lebratard world and so therefore I
• 48:23
  Speaker 1: heard a lot of her Lebratard. She was a consistent
• 48:25
  Speaker 1: contributor to anything that Lebtard was doing, and so and
• 48:28
  Speaker 1: then I watched the show with her and what was
• 48:30
  Speaker 1: his name? Michael A. Smith? Was was his name?
• 48:32
  Speaker 2: Was?
• 48:32
  Speaker 1: What was his name?
• 48:34
  Speaker 2: Bomb?
• 48:34
  Speaker 1: The dude she did the show with. Do you remember what?
• 48:36
  Speaker 2: Yeah, Michael Smith. Michael Smith used to be a Boston
• 48:38
  Speaker 2: kind of reporter. But then I was on ESPN around
• 48:40
  Speaker 2: the four and all the time.
• 48:41
  Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, one of the strongest hairlines ever, Michael Smith.
• 48:44
  Speaker 1: Uh but uh yeah him and uh him and Jamil
• 48:48
  Speaker 1: hill and there so, I you know, so I knew
• 48:50
  Speaker 1: Jamal Hill. I liked her. She did not have the
• 48:52
  Speaker 1: level of popularity. She had a lot, plenty of respect
• 48:56
  Speaker 1: and all that. I mean, she's a real bona fide journalist,
• 48:58
  Speaker 1: but she did not have the level of popularity as
• 49:02
  Speaker 1: Ryan Clark has Nah and Carry Champion was more a
• 49:06
  Speaker 1: host and I like carry Champion, I like, you know,
• 49:08
  Speaker 1: I like what she brought. I thought she did a
• 49:10
  Speaker 1: good job. I do believe that those things were involved
• 49:14
  Speaker 1: with them and them probably you know, being showed the
• 49:17
  Speaker 1: door by ESPN was the fact that they were willing
• 49:20
  Speaker 1: to speak up about some of these issues. I agree
• 49:22
  Speaker 1: with that bomb. But my thing is that what makes
• 49:24
  Speaker 1: this different is you would think that ESPN, when looking
• 49:30
  Speaker 1: at the balance sheet, would say that Ryan Clark, as
• 49:33
  Speaker 1: a personality and as a draw brings more to this
• 49:36
  Speaker 1: company than he costs. And yet he still got let go.
• 49:40
  Speaker 1: I think because of the subject matter that he decides
• 49:44
  Speaker 1: to talk about. Go watch that episode of the Pivot
• 49:47
  Speaker 1: man him. Uh, you know, he he talks about like
• 49:49
  Speaker 1: wishing he had you know, done things better and like
• 49:51
  Speaker 1: made better relationships and stuff like that. Or you know,
• 49:54
  Speaker 1: he wanted to be on ESPN. He wanted to retire there.
• 49:57
  Speaker 1: He wanted to be like the old guy like Berman,
• 49:58
  Speaker 1: like popping in and doing shit. And he thought he
• 50:00
  Speaker 1: was gonna work there on TV until he was done
• 50:02
  Speaker 1: in the media game. And he wonders, like, you know,
• 50:05
  Speaker 1: should he have you know, been more selective with some
• 50:09
  Speaker 1: of the some of the different subject matter some of
• 50:12
  Speaker 1: the different leaks that came out about the whole you know,
• 50:15
  Speaker 1: back and forth he had with old dude about you're
• 50:17
  Speaker 1: not a you never played the game, And I was
• 50:19
  Speaker 1: listening to laboratory essay I talk about how and these
• 50:21
  Speaker 1: are guys obviously who were with ESPN for a very
• 50:23
  Speaker 1: long time and had a very unceremonious falling out with
• 50:26
  Speaker 1: them and have now gone on to build their own
• 50:29
  Speaker 1: thing with Metal Lark Media. And they were talking about
• 50:33
  Speaker 1: how if you know anything about the inner workings, as
• 50:36
  Speaker 1: soon as you see the leak, you know exactly who
• 50:39
  Speaker 1: an ESPN leaked it. And when vine Clark goes into
• 50:43
  Speaker 1: some of the stuff about how that incident was handled
• 50:47
  Speaker 1: and some of the thing about it, how it was
• 50:49
  Speaker 1: leaked in all that. Man, yeah, man, it's all those
• 50:54
  Speaker 1: guys who are over there.
• 50:57
  Speaker 2: You know.
• 51:00
  Speaker 1: Listen. One of the reasons that McAfee and steven a
• 51:05
  Speaker 1: can demand the money that they want, the freedom that
• 51:08
  Speaker 1: they want, is because they have their own thing. And
• 51:10
  Speaker 1: that's why Ryan Clark's gonna be okay. But clearly it
• 51:13
  Speaker 1: got to a point where no matter how popular he
• 51:18
  Speaker 1: was and how much he brought in overall for the network,
• 51:23
  Speaker 1: it became less, it became less valuable to them juxtaposed
• 51:31
  Speaker 1: to his subject matter. And I think that's a shame.
• 51:33
  Speaker 1: I think it's a shame for ESPN. I think it's
• 51:34
  Speaker 1: a it's a shame for it's a shame for for
• 51:39
  Speaker 1: for media and for where we're at. And I also
• 51:43
  Speaker 1: think it's a regression. And the only person I don't
• 51:46
  Speaker 1: think it's a shame for is Ryan Clark. He's gonna
• 51:49
  Speaker 1: be all right, and he's gonna spread his wings and
• 51:51
  Speaker 1: do something bigger and better and he'll be just as
• 51:54
  Speaker 1: popular and reach more people. All right. Uh So two
• 51:59
  Speaker 1: K they announced that the cover boy for two K
• 52:05
  Speaker 1: twenty six is going to be Victor Wembamiana. This was
• 52:11
  Speaker 1: a surprise to many people. Many people assumed that it
• 52:14
  Speaker 1: was going to be the finals MVP, the guy who
• 52:16
  Speaker 1: brought a championship to a city who hadn't had won
• 52:18
  Speaker 1: in fifty three years, the guy who had a performance
• 52:22
  Speaker 1: that was as epic and as strong of a singular
• 52:27
  Speaker 1: performance in the finals that we've seen since dark and
• 52:32
  Speaker 1: the guy who beat with Victoriana in five games and
• 52:35
  Speaker 1: multiple times took it directly to him. You would think
• 52:38
  Speaker 1: that that would be the guy that would get the
• 52:39
  Speaker 1: two K cover. No, it went to Wemby Nick. Twitter
• 52:44
  Speaker 1: went absolutely bananas that that that that uh that that
• 52:48
  Speaker 1: that post that two K made announcing him as the
• 52:51
  Speaker 1: the the the champion. I'm sorry the cover boy and
• 52:56
  Speaker 1: the they called him a hero and they showed and
• 52:58
  Speaker 1: the clip that they show was you know him, an
• 53:00
  Speaker 1: animated clip of him in the garden. I listen, I
• 53:05
  Speaker 1: think it's whack. I'm always going to continue to fight
• 53:07
  Speaker 1: from a man JB whenever I get a chance. But
• 53:11
  Speaker 1: also I think the two K just dropped the fucking ball.
• 53:14
  Speaker 1: You know, Nicks gear is like fanatics and Nike and
• 53:18
  Speaker 1: and and NBA store all talking about how like yo,
• 53:21
  Speaker 1: they they've never had gear run out of stock like
• 53:26
  Speaker 1: this is. Obviously we know all of the records that
• 53:30
  Speaker 1: were set as far as the finals and the viewership
• 53:35
  Speaker 1: and just the overall love and fanfare around his team.
• 53:40
  Speaker 1: I just think it's it's a bad business move by
• 53:42
  Speaker 1: two K. But also I mean, you know, what are
• 53:45
  Speaker 1: we basing this on? And I also saw that like
• 53:47
  Speaker 1: out of the last like twenty thirty something years, only
• 53:49
  Speaker 1: like eight people who had won the championship previously were
• 53:53
  Speaker 1: made the cover board the next year. So okay, all
• 53:56
  Speaker 1: those things are said, they still should have made a
• 53:58
  Speaker 1: Brunson And then they also I think the other part
• 54:02
  Speaker 1: that short sighted. Is it opposite to my opinion? Many
• 54:07
  Speaker 1: people think that, hey, Wemby is gonna win so many championships,
• 54:11
  Speaker 1: He's got all this time to win all these championships,
• 54:13
  Speaker 1: blah blah blah blah. So then you know, you would
• 54:15
  Speaker 1: think that that that window of opportunity would exist. Maybe
• 54:19
  Speaker 1: this is them saying that, like, this is the last
• 54:21
  Speaker 1: time everybody's gonna give a fuck about Wemby because next
• 54:23
  Speaker 1: year he's not gonna be that good and be relevant.
• 54:25
  Speaker 1: So let's go ahead and get him out there.
• 54:26
  Speaker 2: Now.
• 54:27
  Speaker 1: Obviously he's foreign, so there's gonna be a lot of people.
• 54:29
  Speaker 1: I'm telling you, two K would have sold record record
• 54:33
  Speaker 1: amounts of copies if Brunson was on the cover, because
• 54:36
  Speaker 1: there's a whole lot of Knicks fans who don't fucking
• 54:38
  Speaker 1: play two K that still would have bought it. I
• 54:40
  Speaker 1: think they dropped the ball. What do you think? Bomb?
• 54:44
  Speaker 2: What I can try to get us insight on for
• 54:46
  Speaker 2: this is how many months of advance they determine this.
• 54:48
  Speaker 2: I feel like it's something that's kind of determined early
• 54:52
  Speaker 2: in the basketball season.
• 54:53
  Speaker 1: So if that's the case, then that's If that's the case,
• 54:54
  Speaker 1: that's free. It's idiotic. So what Okay, So if Wemby
• 54:58
  Speaker 1: would have fucking that, that can't be the case. If
• 55:00
  Speaker 1: we would have ruptured his achilles in the finals, he
• 55:02
  Speaker 1: wouldn't be the cover boy next year.
• 55:04
  Speaker 2: Maybe maybe not. I don't know.
• 55:05
  Speaker 1: He wouldn't he wouldn't have.
• 55:07
  Speaker 2: You have a source we can ask, shout up, shout
• 55:09
  Speaker 2: out guy, Ronnie on the horn. I will I will
• 55:13
  Speaker 2: get Ronnie on the horn, and eventually, at some point
• 55:16
  Speaker 2: I will do I will do my best to reach out. However,
• 55:19
  Speaker 2: I'm gonna look at this from a positive for a minute.
• 55:22
  Speaker 2: So you have all this championship glory that you guys
• 55:25
  Speaker 2: are rampling in as Nick fan base. This is just
• 55:27
  Speaker 2: a little added motivation for Brunton to take it personally
• 55:30
  Speaker 2: and come back even better next year, no doubt.
• 55:32
  Speaker 1: And you know he's going to as well. He's gay
• 55:34
  Speaker 1: like he he's one of those guys where he acts
• 55:36
  Speaker 1: like he don't pay attention to sh like this, but
• 55:38
  Speaker 1: he does. And Yo, man I I listen, I know
• 55:41
  Speaker 1: that he definitely he's on Twitter. He shout out to
• 55:44
  Speaker 1: him and Josh Hart for showing up to uh to
• 55:49
  Speaker 1: the Knicks have uh It's Knicks Twitter Day. They have
• 55:52
  Speaker 1: a basketball game. This is second year in a row,
• 55:55
  Speaker 1: and him and Josh Hart last year said that they
• 55:57
  Speaker 1: would go. They just need to switch up the weekend.
• 55:59
  Speaker 1: They switched at the weekend they showed up. Shut to
• 56:02
  Speaker 1: my guy, my boy, Harris Knickerbocker Banter, great dude, and
• 56:07
  Speaker 1: uh he won actually MVP. He played college ball. He
• 56:09
  Speaker 1: was out there, he was giving it to him. I've
• 56:10
  Speaker 1: seen some videos of him, you know, just just dag
• 56:14
  Speaker 1: jab step jab step three and you mug. But uh,
• 56:17
  Speaker 1: it's interesting, man, because you know, they clearly pay attention
• 56:22
  Speaker 1: to this shit that people say in this now that
• 56:25
  Speaker 1: they've won. You hear the way they talk about Becky Hammond.
• 56:29
  Speaker 1: You hear the way that Brunson talks about some of
• 56:30
  Speaker 1: the doubters and things like that. And they then and
• 56:32
  Speaker 1: the way they talk about how Brunson is already always
• 56:35
  Speaker 1: mentally like, you know, just looking just like like Bridges
• 56:38
  Speaker 1: talking about the fact that if y'all don't think he's
• 56:39
  Speaker 1: already thinking about how we're gonna repeat, and Brunston talking
• 56:42
  Speaker 1: about how he feels like he knows that there's gonna
• 56:44
  Speaker 1: be they have to be even better and it's gonna
• 56:47
  Speaker 1: be tough, but he feels like he knows how he
• 56:48
  Speaker 1: can make it happen. Clearly, this guy is the type
• 56:50
  Speaker 1: of dude who he's like, Okay, I'm not on the
• 56:53
  Speaker 1: cover word.
• 56:54
  Speaker 2: I mean, and that's the way to handle it too.
• 56:57
  Speaker 2: Like there's you know a lot of people who you know,
• 56:59
  Speaker 2: there's more ways you can handle it, but that the
• 57:01
  Speaker 2: way Brenson Talley is the correct way. There's people who
• 57:04
  Speaker 2: will say stuff and you can you can either get
• 57:07
  Speaker 2: all offended by it and let it bright, or you
• 57:08
  Speaker 2: can just all right, I bet let me lock in
• 57:10
  Speaker 2: and I'll prove you again.
• 57:12
  Speaker 1: And like you said at the parade, once you prove
• 57:15
  Speaker 1: them wrong, you don't have to say shit to nobody.
• 57:17
  Speaker 1: And yeah, man Spurs Spurs Spurs Twitter. So I I mean,
• 57:21
  Speaker 1: you know, I've dealt with I've dealt with Philly Twitter,
• 57:24
  Speaker 1: I've dealt with Pacers Twitter. Spurs Twitter is a different breed.
• 57:28
  Speaker 1: I mean the way that like even like like like
• 57:30
  Speaker 1: when shit just happens and like Brunson gets an award.
• 57:33
  Speaker 1: The way that they're in the in the in down
• 57:35
  Speaker 1: in the comments talking about like, well, enjoy it now
• 57:37
  Speaker 1: because it's the only thing he'll ever get. Like they
• 57:38
  Speaker 1: hate this guy so much. I get it. I can't
• 57:42
  Speaker 1: why you hate him. I mean, he fucking annihilated all,
• 57:44
  Speaker 1: he killed all, He opened up y'all's chests in the
• 57:46
  Speaker 1: middle of the goddamn garden floor, ripped out your heart
• 57:49
  Speaker 1: and ate it. I get it, I understand, But Jesus man,
• 57:52
  Speaker 1: give the guy some fucking do I mean, just or
• 57:54
  Speaker 1: just back back, just just back, I see. I don't
• 57:57
  Speaker 1: hate players that when players fucking kill the nick like
• 58:01
  Speaker 1: like Dwayne Wade. Dwayne Wade used to kill the Knicks,
• 58:04
  Speaker 1: kill us. I mean, damn fucking was the man. That
• 58:10
  Speaker 1: didn't make me dislike him. I just like players, and
• 58:12
  Speaker 1: they do soft shit when they do dirty shit. But
• 58:14
  Speaker 1: that didn't make me like dislike him. Like Tyrese Haliburton,
• 58:20
  Speaker 1: He's obviously had some success against the Knicks' He's his
• 58:23
  Speaker 1: team has eliminated our team from the playoffs two years
• 58:25
  Speaker 1: in a row. The reason I dislike him is like
• 58:30
  Speaker 1: the choking and I don't dislike him because he like
• 58:33
  Speaker 1: played like Pascal Sia, I could play really good when
• 58:36
  Speaker 1: we lost them, not last season, but the season before.
• 58:38
  Speaker 1: I don't hate Siakam now, like come on, man, like
• 58:42
  Speaker 1: I don't know. I just think these Spurs fans, they
• 58:44
  Speaker 1: cope so hard in the mentions, and I'm coming for
• 58:46
  Speaker 1: him too. Like I said, this is clop back season.
• 58:48
  Speaker 1: I'm not usually I'm somebody who's above that shit. I'm
• 58:51
  Speaker 1: not above nothing. I will get as petty as I
• 58:54
  Speaker 1: fucking can about these motherfucking New York Championship Knicks. If
• 58:58
  Speaker 1: you are out there in Twitter world and you talk
• 59:00
  Speaker 1: about the Knicks, you don't even have to be talking
• 59:02
  Speaker 1: to me. I don't give a fuck if I see it,
• 59:03
  Speaker 1: I'm coming for you with the fucking champs. Yoh, get
• 59:10
  Speaker 1: your get get brunts and fucking balls out your mouth,
• 59:14
  Speaker 1: and go worry about your team and what y'all gotta do. Ball.
• 59:19
  Speaker 1: I got a fair of foul man before we get
• 59:20
  Speaker 1: up out of here on this Friday. Unless you got anything.
• 59:22
  Speaker 2: Else, not heavy with it? All right?
• 59:27
  Speaker 1: So so oh okay, So I got a little transition
• 59:30
  Speaker 1: before I want to talk about Brad Pitt and the
• 59:34
  Speaker 1: and the the movie that there was a preview for. Yo,
• 59:37
  Speaker 1: Brad Pitt is a preview. It's him and he is
• 59:42
  Speaker 1: like a Special Forces Army special Forces dude who is retired,
• 59:48
  Speaker 1: and he's retired with his dog, his German shepherd, who
• 59:50
  Speaker 1: got blown up at one point while they were, you know,
• 59:54
  Speaker 1: in combat. And so now he's got like some some
• 59:57
  Speaker 1: some like some steel teeth, and he's got like a
• 1:00:00
  Speaker 1: he's got a steal leg, he's got a prosthetic, and
• 1:00:03
  Speaker 1: so now him and Brad Pitt are enjoying retirement together.
• 1:00:08
  Speaker 1: Brad Pitt is some sort of you know, pilot, and
• 1:00:13
  Speaker 1: they're in some small plane and they go down and
• 1:00:15
  Speaker 1: they're on like a fucking desert island type shit, and
• 1:00:17
  Speaker 1: they got to survive, and so it's just them to
• 1:00:20
  Speaker 1: the entire movie. Fucking looks awesome. If you know me,
• 1:00:23
  Speaker 1: I love fucking dogs. I can't wait till my dad
• 1:00:25
  Speaker 1: about this movie. He loves fucking dogs. Movie's gonna be
• 1:00:27
  Speaker 1: I think it's gonna be sick.
• 1:00:28
  Speaker 2: Look that sounds like something I would see, Yes.
• 1:00:31
  Speaker 1: Yes, But any movie where you have just a guy
• 1:00:34
  Speaker 1: and a dog, ye, there's a chance it could be
• 1:00:36
  Speaker 1: a fucking duddy. It could be really good or it
• 1:00:39
  Speaker 1: could be absolutely horrible. So we'll see, we'll see, there's
• 1:00:43
  Speaker 1: another movie that I thought that that that there was
• 1:00:45
  Speaker 1: a preview for that was almost like.
• 1:00:49
  Speaker 2: It was like.
• 1:00:52
  Speaker 1: It was like an I Am Legend type shit, except
• 1:00:54
  Speaker 1: the the other things that you like. There was some
• 1:00:56
  Speaker 1: crazy event that killed off most of humanity, but what
• 1:01:01
  Speaker 1: you had to deal with was other humans that did
• 1:01:03
  Speaker 1: survive and then trying to band together, have your little
• 1:01:05
  Speaker 1: group and be able to fucking fight everybody else. So
• 1:01:12
  Speaker 1: there is this movie with Brad Pitt. I feel like
• 1:01:16
  Speaker 1: it's gonna be pretty good. You know, I'm into seeing it.
• 1:01:20
  Speaker 1: But you know, I'm a dog guy. Okay, So I
• 1:01:24
  Speaker 1: am a dog guy through and through. I love dogs.
• 1:01:27
  Speaker 1: I've loved dogs my entire life. My dog is in here.
• 1:01:32
  Speaker 2: Give here see by the time we got a slebrity
• 1:01:40
  Speaker 2: appearance from Ox, a little celebrity on art the same
• 1:01:49
  Speaker 2: we're going from Boston, all right.
• 1:01:51
  Speaker 1: So my American bulldog, he is highly trained. My dad
• 1:01:56
  Speaker 1: has bred big dogs. He's had an English master's, Neapolitan
• 1:01:59
  Speaker 1: masters now out in Arizona. He's got the South African Mastiff,
• 1:02:02
  Speaker 1: the Borble. So we've always been around dogs. I've always
• 1:02:05
  Speaker 1: been around big dogs. I love dogs. I've really loved
• 1:02:07
  Speaker 1: the act of training a dog and you know all
• 1:02:10
  Speaker 1: that and everything that comes with it. Love dogs, okay,
• 1:02:14
  Speaker 1: But in the last decade, maybe a little bit longer,
• 1:02:19
  Speaker 1: there's this new trend where every dog is either a
• 1:02:24
  Speaker 1: service dog or an emotional support dog. And everywhere from
• 1:02:30
  Speaker 1: airplanes to doctors' offices to grocery stores, you see multiple
• 1:02:37
  Speaker 1: people walking around with their dog and sometimes these dogs.
• 1:02:40
  Speaker 1: So there's service dogs, okay, that's one thing. Then you
• 1:02:44
  Speaker 1: got the emotional support dog, where you know, this dog
• 1:02:47
  Speaker 1: can be in a stroller, in your arms, on a leash,
• 1:02:52
  Speaker 1: whatever the case may be. Offices, countless times I've seen
• 1:02:57
  Speaker 1: people bring their dog into an office or make posts
• 1:03:01
  Speaker 1: online about them either bringing a dog to an office
• 1:03:03
  Speaker 1: or having a dog in the office. Baul, let me
• 1:03:08
  Speaker 1: ask you, man, So this whole thing with having an
• 1:03:11
  Speaker 1: emotional support dog and being able to have it in
• 1:03:13
  Speaker 1: the produce section of the grocery store, faaraphoul I.
• 1:03:18
  Speaker 2: Think it's foul. Can't you can't leave them for like
• 1:03:21
  Speaker 2: five minutes?
• 1:03:22
  Speaker 1: Not just that, Listen, I love dogs personally too, but
• 1:03:27
  Speaker 1: at the same time, why does everybody else have to
• 1:03:33
  Speaker 1: have this this this this dog thrust upon them and
• 1:03:36
  Speaker 1: brought into their environment when they're going into a big
• 1:03:39
  Speaker 1: public place. First of all, what if somebody's allergic to dogs?
• 1:03:43
  Speaker 1: If I if I'm in an office and I'm allergic
• 1:03:45
  Speaker 1: to dogs, but this other, but this, but the my
• 1:03:49
  Speaker 1: manager loves to bring in their Golden Retriever and everybody
• 1:03:51
  Speaker 1: in the fucking office loves this fucking dog. It's just
• 1:03:54
  Speaker 1: like so happy and so nice, and clearly my manager
• 1:03:56
  Speaker 1: loves it because they bring it in. Now I have
• 1:03:59
  Speaker 1: to deal with this. I have to deal with this,
• 1:04:01
  Speaker 1: or I have to be the one that comes to
• 1:04:02
  Speaker 1: them and say like, hey, by the way, just see
• 1:04:03
  Speaker 1: you know, like I'm allergic to dogs. Yeah, Like that's
• 1:04:08
  Speaker 1: just it's crazy to be able to make everybody just
• 1:04:13
  Speaker 1: assume that everybody else likes dogs wants to be around
• 1:04:16
  Speaker 1: a dog. And the other thing is that half the
• 1:04:18
  Speaker 1: time in the grocery store, I go to walk past
• 1:04:21
  Speaker 1: and your dog is like turning and like putting its
• 1:04:23
  Speaker 1: face towards me, Like you dog, don't I don't need
• 1:04:25
  Speaker 1: your dog's wet nose on.
• 1:04:26
  Speaker 2: Me on me.
• 1:04:28
  Speaker 1: I see, I love dogs, and I look at dog,
• 1:04:29
  Speaker 1: I'm like, oh, that's a cool dog. I'm not one
• 1:04:30
  Speaker 1: of these people when I see a dog in public.
• 1:04:32
  Speaker 1: I'm like, oh my god, it's a dog. Oh my god,
• 1:04:34
  Speaker 1: is he friendly? Can I pet him? Ox loves the family,
• 1:04:37
  Speaker 1: loves everybody. If you're a person who you don't know
• 1:04:39
  Speaker 1: and you get within our little range, he lets you
• 1:04:41
  Speaker 1: know by his outward his outward energy as well as
• 1:04:46
  Speaker 1: his growl that you don't walk up on him like that.
• 1:04:49
  Speaker 1: He's a protection dog. He's protection trained, bite trained, all
• 1:04:52
  Speaker 1: those things. Like he's really about that shit. So you
• 1:04:54
  Speaker 1: gotta come to my house, be here for a minute,
• 1:04:57
  Speaker 1: maybe come a second time before he warms up to you,
• 1:04:59
  Speaker 1: and then you're good. He knows you're good.
• 1:05:02
  Speaker 2: That's whole attentive Moose gets when he's walking out that dude,
• 1:05:06
  Speaker 2: Oh of course you've got you got big old club man.
• 1:05:09
  Speaker 1: Yes, yes, By the way, Moose is a Bassett Hound
• 1:05:11
  Speaker 1: for the listeners, for a listener that don't know. So therefore,
• 1:05:13
  Speaker 1: I mean obviously just an adorable, very cute, very just like,
• 1:05:16
  Speaker 1: oh my god, look at this dog. But I'm telling you,
• 1:05:19
  Speaker 1: man again, like so now I see people. I've seen
• 1:05:22
  Speaker 1: people in the fucking in the in the in the
• 1:05:25
  Speaker 1: in the produce section, and their dog is like fucking
• 1:05:27
  Speaker 1: sniffing the tomatoes or some ship.
• 1:05:30
  Speaker 2: Yo.
• 1:05:30
  Speaker 1: You can't just bring your dog with you everywhere.
• 1:05:32
  Speaker 2: If your dog is it's you cant no.
• 1:05:36
  Speaker 1: It's just that people want to have their dog with
• 1:05:38
  Speaker 1: them and they see other people have their dog and
• 1:05:39
  Speaker 1: they're like, well fuck that, Well I I want to
• 1:05:42
  Speaker 1: I want to have I want to have Scrumpy with
• 1:05:44
  Speaker 1: me too. And it's just like, come on, man, there's
• 1:05:46
  Speaker 1: certain places where it's just absurd to assume that everybody
• 1:05:50
  Speaker 1: else should want to have to deal with your dog.
• 1:05:54
  Speaker 2: I completely agree this is this is for me one
• 1:05:58
  Speaker 2: foulve You don't even need to challenge or review. It's
• 1:06:00
  Speaker 2: foul foul ball man.
• 1:06:02
  Speaker 1: Yeah, man, yo, listen, leave your fucking dog at home.
• 1:06:06
  Speaker 1: Take your dog to spaces where people are expected to
• 1:06:08
  Speaker 1: have dogs. If you have a legitimate service dog, a
• 1:06:13
  Speaker 1: seeing eye dog, some something like that, that is one thing.
• 1:06:17
  Speaker 1: First of all, those dogs are expertly trained. They have
• 1:06:20
  Speaker 1: certain standards that they have to meet. Therefore, you know
• 1:06:22
  Speaker 1: they're trained well and they're not dogs, and they always
• 1:06:25
  Speaker 1: have the thing one that says like, do not pet me.
• 1:06:27
  Speaker 1: I'm a service dog. I'm with all that, but this
• 1:06:30
  Speaker 1: emotional support dog where it's like, well you know, I
• 1:06:32
  Speaker 1: get anxiety and having this dog. And I know people
• 1:06:35
  Speaker 1: personally who have forged those documents to be able to
• 1:06:38
  Speaker 1: take their dog places or on a plane. And I
• 1:06:42
  Speaker 1: know also people who have said, like, Yo, my doctor,
• 1:06:44
  Speaker 1: you just go to the doctor. You say like this
• 1:06:46
  Speaker 1: or that, like the love, They'll fucking do it all
• 1:06:48
  Speaker 1: for you. That shit is fucking ridiculous to me. Leave
• 1:06:51
  Speaker 1: your fucking dog at home. Don't have your goddamn dog,
• 1:06:55
  Speaker 1: you know, walking up to me and sniffing me, or
• 1:06:57
  Speaker 1: being face to face with my six year I saw
• 1:07:01
  Speaker 1: motherfucker with a Saint Bernard in the goddamn grocery store. God,
• 1:07:06
  Speaker 1: shit has got to control them.
• 1:07:07
  Speaker 2: That's crazy.
• 1:07:10
  Speaker 1: It's insane, Yo, it's insane. I just think that people
• 1:07:13
  Speaker 1: have really overdone this, and now it's gotten to a
• 1:07:16
  Speaker 1: point where, you know, it's almost impossible, Like can you
• 1:07:19
  Speaker 1: at a grocery store? Could you walk with somebody like
• 1:07:20
  Speaker 1: excuse me, Like there's no there's no dogs in the store. Uh,
• 1:07:24
  Speaker 1: we're gonna need some sort of documentation or something.
• 1:07:27
  Speaker 2: Like I can't.
• 1:07:28
  Speaker 1: I feel like it's so prevalent now that somebody at
• 1:07:30
  Speaker 1: a fucking Fries or a Walmart, or they couldn't even
• 1:07:33
  Speaker 1: do that.
• 1:07:34
  Speaker 2: I don't still get like how you can't have like
• 1:07:36
  Speaker 2: a sam little like ID car, like a driver's license.
• 1:07:39
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, listen, I'm sure that there is some
• 1:07:44
  Speaker 1: sort of legal precedent where they could ask you to
• 1:07:46
  Speaker 1: produce that. Yeah, but would you be willing to get
• 1:07:49
  Speaker 1: the backlash of your local Facebook page talking about how
• 1:07:53
  Speaker 1: like they wouldn't let me with There's so many people
• 1:07:55
  Speaker 1: that they're just they love dogs so much that if
• 1:07:57
  Speaker 1: there's anything that is even remotely discriminatory against dogs, they're
• 1:08:05
  Speaker 1: they're they're just off the rip. There's a lot of
• 1:08:07
  Speaker 1: people out here, bomb. Yeah, they love dogs more than people.
• 1:08:13
  Speaker 1: I think if Michael Vick killed ray Lewis, allegedly allegedly
• 1:08:16
  Speaker 1: stabbed a guy, Michael Vick ran a dog ring, and
• 1:08:20
  Speaker 1: we see who who who got more trouble. I'm telling

• 1:08:29
  Speaker 1: love dogs. I'm pro dog. Leave your fucking dog at home.
• 1:08:33
  Speaker 1: Your dog is not supposed to be in a.
