• 2:23
  SPEAKER_03: And the East, the Knicks, pulled off a 22-point fourth quarter comeback to Steel game one from the Cavs in the biggest conference finals comeback since 1997.
• 2:33
  SPEAKER_03: And out west, Victor Wombanyama went for 41 points and 24 rebounds and a double overtime win in game one for the Spurs to win over the reigning champs.
• 2:45
  SPEAKER_03: Let's talk about these game ones for a second, okay?
• 2:47
  SPEAKER_03: Because game the game ones were absolutely insane.
• 2:53
  SPEAKER_03: Y'all, first and foremost, the Spurs and OKC.
• 2:57
  SPEAKER_03: This is the series that we all begged for, that we all wanted so desperately and so badly, and I'm so glad we finally got.
• 3:06
  SPEAKER_03: Guys, it's living up and beyond.
• 3:09
  SPEAKER_03: That double overtime game.
• 3:10
  SPEAKER_03: I'm not even gonna lie.
• 3:12
  SPEAKER_03: Can I tell you guys the truth?
• 3:13
  SPEAKER_03: Can I tell you guys the truth?
• 3:14
  SPEAKER_03: I fell asleep before the second overtime.
• 3:16
  SPEAKER_03: I know.
• 3:16
  SPEAKER_03: I took a lemme sleep thinking, I didn't think, you know, like I didn't think it was gonna go on for that fucking long.
• 3:22
  SPEAKER_03: I took a lemme sleep and I knocked out and I woke up and I was like, the defensive player of the year hit a logo three to send a game to double overtime.
• 3:32
  SPEAKER_03: Are we joking?
• 3:34
  SPEAKER_03: That is not, that is not supposed to happen.
• 3:38
  SPEAKER_03: Nixon 4.
• 3:39
  SPEAKER_03: Everybody in the chat is saying Nixon 4.
• 3:41
  SPEAKER_03: Oh god.
• 3:42
  SPEAKER_03: Okay, sorry, we're not done for the next yet.
• 3:44
  SPEAKER_03: But, but Victor Womanyama hit a logo three to send a double overtime.
• 3:49
  SPEAKER_03: Guys, defensive players of the year aren't supposed to do that, they're not supposed to do shit like that, y'all.
• 3:54
  SPEAKER_03: I explained this in more detail on my TikTok, but if you don't know like the background of this series, I'll give you the little the little rundown, okay?
• 4:05
  SPEAKER_03: So the Spurs are like the new kids on the block, up and coming.
• 4:09
  SPEAKER_03: They are already ahead of schedule, okay?
• 4:11
  SPEAKER_03: Obviously, they're very much set up to be a championship team in the future simply because they have Victor Womanyama on their roster, who is like unreal.
• 4:19
  SPEAKER_03: Um, but they're way ahead of schedule.
• 4:21
  SPEAKER_03: Nobody expected them to be this good this soon, right?
• 4:24
  SPEAKER_03: And then OKC, they're the defending champs.
• 4:27
  SPEAKER_03: So, like everyone is expecting a lot from OKC.
• 4:31
  SPEAKER_03: SGA is the reigning MVP, and he won the MVP again.
• 4:36
  SPEAKER_03: And before game one of the Western Conference Finals, they gave the award to SGA in front of Wimby.
• 4:44
  SPEAKER_03: So Wimby is is there in the building watching SGA have this award presentation ceremony, which was a setup.
• 4:54
  SPEAKER_03: They set OKC up because I saw a photo, I don't like I never know what's real but AI, okay, of Wimby like in the background, like looking at SGA getting the trophy, and because guys, Wimby thought he deserved the MVP award, and it depends on how you classify an NBA MVP, right?
• 5:16
  SPEAKER_03: Because it could be the most valuable player, as in like your team would suck without you because you're in that you're valuable because of that, or it could be you're the most valuable player because you're the best player on the best team, and that's what SGA was.
• 5:29
  SPEAKER_03: I would say the Spurs were the other version of an MVP, like with Wimby, he is everything, like they are where they are because of him.
• 5:39
  SPEAKER_03: You take Wimby off that team, it is completely different, especially without De'Aaron Fox right now.
• 5:44
  SPEAKER_03: So that is that version of an MVP, right?
• 5:46
  SPEAKER_03: And Wimby, one thing I really like about him is he's not afraid to say that.
• 5:52
  SPEAKER_03: He's not afraid to say, I deserve the MVP award because this, this, and this.
• 5:57
  SPEAKER_03: He's not afraid to say, he got the MVP award in front of me, and yeah, I took it personal.
• 6:02
  SPEAKER_03: That yeah, that's why I went for 41 and 24 rebounds or whatever the fuck.
• 6:06
  SPEAKER_03: Because he got that award in front of me.
• 6:08
  SPEAKER_03: These guys are two, the media training and the NBA has gotten out of hand.
• 6:12
  SPEAKER_03: All right, they they give us the same answer to every question.
• 6:17
  SPEAKER_03: Just another game.
• 6:18
  SPEAKER_03: You know, you just gotta lock in.
• 6:21
  SPEAKER_03: It's just another team.
• 6:22
  SPEAKER_03: Like, I don't care about me, I care about the team.
• 6:24
  SPEAKER_03: I don't care about the MVP, I only care about the championship.
• 6:26
  SPEAKER_03: That's such bullshit.
• 6:29
  SPEAKER_03: Come on, everybody wants to win an MVP at some point.
• 6:33
  SPEAKER_03: What do you mean you don't care about winning the MVP, you only care about winning the championship?
• 6:36
  SPEAKER_03: I think you want to get a couple MVPs too.
• 6:38
  SPEAKER_03: Let's like like let's keep it, let's keep it a buck, right?
• 6:42
  SPEAKER_03: Like, the answers are tired, they're boring.
• 6:44
  SPEAKER_03: Like, let's stop media training the guys and make this shit interesting.
• 6:46
  SPEAKER_03: Have y'all watched Drive or Survive, Formula One Drive or Survive?
• 6:50
  SPEAKER_03: They be saying whatever.
• 6:52
  SPEAKER_03: They be saying, they they gonna tell you exactly how it is, and maybe because there's only 20 of them in the world or whatever, but I I need a little more of that in the NBA.
• 6:59
  SPEAKER_03: Everybody is just like pulling Kobe quotes out of their ass and regurgitating them because they think that's what they're supposed to say.
• 7:05
  SPEAKER_03: Job's not finished, bruh.
• 7:10
  SPEAKER_03: Tired.
• 7:11
  SPEAKER_03: The reporter will be like, are you happy you just won the championship?
• 7:14
  SPEAKER_03: And they'll be like, job's not finished.
• 7:19
  SPEAKER_03: Okay, like okay, okay, okay, Mamba Miniature.
• 7:23
  SPEAKER_03: Like, okay, is not cute, is tired.
• 7:25
  SPEAKER_03: So I like that Wimby's actually honest and he has that like mentality and he's not like aura farming.
• 7:30
  SPEAKER_03: I think SGA Aura Farms, OD.
• 7:33
  SPEAKER_03: Like his post-game interviews on the court really give me the heebie jueby sometimes because I'm like, I have to remind myself sometimes he's from Toronto because like dudes from Canada be act like that.
• 7:44
  SPEAKER_03: No shade, but he's always like, he's always like, the job is the job until you get another job and you apply.
• 7:58
  SPEAKER_03: Championships are in the window, not the rear view.
• 8:06
  SPEAKER_03: What what we supposed to say to that?
• 8:07
  SPEAKER_03: Like, I can't, I can't, I can't.
• 8:10
  SPEAKER_03: It's not cute.
• 8:11
  SPEAKER_03: It's not cute.
• 8:11
  SPEAKER_03: It never gave nothing.
• 8:12
  SPEAKER_03: Like, I don't like that.
• 8:14
  SPEAKER_03: However, however, however, let's get back into basketball.
• 8:17
  SPEAKER_03: You know me, I'm getting distracted.
• 8:19
  SPEAKER_03: Um, game one was crazy, crazy.
• 8:23
  SPEAKER_03: We move on to game two.
• 8:25
  SPEAKER_03: Oh, I didn't even really get into it.
• 8:27
  SPEAKER_03: What do I have to do?
• 8:27
  SPEAKER_03: I'm getting ahead of myself.
• 8:28
  SPEAKER_03: I kind of like, you know, I gotta sprinkle a little saw uh seasoning on it first.
• 8:33
  SPEAKER_03: Game one goes to double overtime.
• 8:36
  SPEAKER_03: The Spurs win.
• 8:38
  SPEAKER_03: They've simply turned into a track meet at that point.
• 8:40
  SPEAKER_03: You know what I'm saying?
• 8:41
  SPEAKER_03: Like, it's like we're both like fighting to our fullest potential.
• 8:45
  SPEAKER_03: The Spurs take it.
• 8:46
  SPEAKER_03: You get to game two, and it wasn't one of those game ones, I mean, it went to double overtime.
• 8:50
  SPEAKER_03: I'm not overreacting to that shit.
• 8:51
  SPEAKER_03: I'm not saying, oh, the Spurs are gonna win the series because of that.
• 8:54
  SPEAKER_03: But clearly, I do have a prediction, obviously.
• 8:57
  SPEAKER_03: But then we get to game two, and game two, me and my sister were talking on the phone at the beginning of it.
• 9:06
  SPEAKER_03: Watching this Spurs OKC series is genuinely stressing me out because they are both so good at basketball that it's like shot for shot for shot for shot for shot for shot for shot.
• 9:20
  SPEAKER_03: It's just it's just good basketball back and forth.
• 9:22
  SPEAKER_03: It is really stressful to watch.
• 9:25
  SPEAKER_03: And I don't even have a dog in this fight.
• 9:27
  SPEAKER_03: I don't care, to be honest.
• 9:28
  SPEAKER_03: Like, it's not gonna, it's not gonna hurt me or affect me, whoever wins, but it is so high stakes, and it is such a heavyweight fight, just back and forth and back and forth, and they both are without important pieces.
• 9:41
  SPEAKER_03: Jalen Williams for OKC now, and then you've got the Aaron Fox sitting on the bench and his little diamonds dancing.
• 9:48
  SPEAKER_03: You both got people who are out, so we're both kind of like even-ish, right?
• 9:53
  SPEAKER_03: I will say, watching Victor Womanyama play basketball, it is so crazy how tall he is.
• 10:02
  SPEAKER_03: He is so tall.
• 10:03
  SPEAKER_03: The way his head just sticks out from the crowd, when he missed a shot and then tipped it back in, he got his own rebound and tipped it back in himself.
• 10:13
  SPEAKER_03: I was like, We're dealing with we're dealing with some some other shit here.
• 10:18
  SPEAKER_03: Like, absolutely not.
• 10:19
  SPEAKER_03: What the what the fuck is this?
• 10:20
  SPEAKER_03: And you shouldn't be able to do that and make a logo three.
• 10:23
  SPEAKER_03: This is not like this is not, no, absolutely not.
• 10:28
  SPEAKER_03: Game two, Isaiah Hartenstein, uh, he he grabbing on he grabbing on people's dreads and stuff.
• 10:36
  SPEAKER_03: He he trying to pull a little Draymond Green on him, and people were annoyed.
• 10:40
  SPEAKER_03: People were annoyed.
• 10:41
  SPEAKER_03: I saw like a few Twitters and heard some chirps of people being like, Isaiah Hartenstein.
• 10:46
  SPEAKER_03: What the fuck are you supposed to do?
• 10:48
  SPEAKER_03: What the fuck are you young lucky?
• 10:49
  SPEAKER_03: I'm not on Wimbi because I let me not say that.
• 10:52
  SPEAKER_03: They gonna cancel me.
• 10:53
  SPEAKER_03: I would trip him.
• 10:55
  SPEAKER_03: Or something.
• 10:56
  SPEAKER_03: Like, what the fuck am I supposed to do with this?
• 10:58
  SPEAKER_03: This nigga is seven foot six.
• 11:00
  SPEAKER_03: He making logo threes, he dribbling into the lane, he's missing his own shots and getting his own rebounds, his arms are long as fuck.
• 11:07
  SPEAKER_03: He could probably reach into the crowd and tickle somebody in the 200 section if he wanted to.
• 11:12
  SPEAKER_03: The fuck am I supposed to what the fuck am I supposed to do with that?
• 11:14
  SPEAKER_03: But the here's here's my issue though.
• 11:18
  SPEAKER_03: Here's my issue.
• 11:21
  SPEAKER_03: OKC, don't come for me.
• 11:23
  SPEAKER_03: OKC, do not fucking come for me.
• 11:24
  SPEAKER_03: Okay, please, please.
• 11:26
  SPEAKER_03: I like y'all, but we need to get fucking for real for a second.
• 11:31
  SPEAKER_03: You look at Wimby and you say, that shit is impossible.
• 11:34
  SPEAKER_03: How are we supposed to respond to that?
• 11:36
  SPEAKER_03: We don't have an answer to that.
• 11:38
  SPEAKER_03: Unless I genetically engineer a seven foot six Frenchman who can make a logo three and miss his own shot, tip it back in.
• 11:46
  SPEAKER_03: Unless I can genetically engineer that, I'm not gonna have an answer to that.
• 11:48
  SPEAKER_03: We just we're just gonna have to figure it out.
• 11:50
  SPEAKER_03: We're just gonna have to fuck around and find out.
• 11:52
  SPEAKER_03: However, I thought I thought Chet Holmgren was supposed to be cut from a similar cloth, right?
• 11:58
  SPEAKER_03: Right?
• 11:59
  SPEAKER_03: I thought Chet I thought Chet Holmgren was supposed to be cut from a similar cloth.
• 12:03
  SPEAKER_03: Did I did I miss something?
• 12:05
  SPEAKER_03: Because I thought Chet was supposed to be that guy, right?
• 12:09
  SPEAKER_03: I I I affectionately referred to him as White Wimby a couple times.
• 12:12
  SPEAKER_03: I thought he was supposed to be like that.
• 12:13
  SPEAKER_03: You know what I'm saying?
• 12:14
  SPEAKER_03: He's looking Wimby dead in his face.
• 12:18
  SPEAKER_03: So he's not shorter than you.
• 12:20
  SPEAKER_03: Irritated the fuck out of me.
• 12:22
  SPEAKER_03: They got Alex Caruso guarding Wimby.
• 12:24
  SPEAKER_03: He's he's a whole person shorter than Wimby.
• 12:28
  SPEAKER_03: It just looks stupid.
• 12:30
  SPEAKER_03: It just looks silly.
• 12:31
  SPEAKER_03: It looks absolutely silly.
• 12:32
  SPEAKER_03: It looks like a little boy playing basketball with his daddy in the backyard.
• 12:36
  SPEAKER_03: And I'm thinking, where the fuck is Chet Holgren?
• 12:39
  SPEAKER_03: I'm thinking Chad Holmgren is supposed to be, you know, if anybody is in a good position to beat the Spurs, it should be OKC because they've got a similar guy, right?
• 12:49
  SPEAKER_03: Absolutely, y'all not cut from the same, y'all not cut from the same fabric, nothing.
• 12:54
  SPEAKER_03: Abso fucking lutely not.
• 12:57
  SPEAKER_03: One-sided beef as hell.
• 13:00
  SPEAKER_03: Chad Holmgren looks softer than Charmin Ultra Soft.
• 13:06
  SPEAKER_03: He looks softer than a baby's booty.
• 13:11
  SPEAKER_03: He looks so soft, I'm embarrassed from home.
• 13:15
  SPEAKER_03: And I don't like to say things like that about NBA players because I know I don't play.
• 13:19
  SPEAKER_03: So, like, I there's a there's a certain respect I have for the game, right?
• 13:22
  SPEAKER_03: But I'm getting secondhand embarrassment from Chet Holmgren.
• 13:25
  SPEAKER_03: This is your op, bro.
• 13:28
  SPEAKER_03: If you guys don't already know, Chet Holmgren and Victor Womanyama do not like each other.
• 13:33
  SPEAKER_03: They're not friends, they're not homies, they're not painting each other's nails, they're not playing chess together in the park, they don't fuck with each other, they don't even like each other.
• 13:39
  SPEAKER_03: Chet won't say in an interview, we haven't even spoken a full sentence to each other.
• 13:43
  SPEAKER_03: It is they are very open about the fact that they don't like each other because way back in the day, I guess they played each other in the World Cup when they were we lads, and Chet won and he got the MVP award, and Wimby didn't like that.
• 13:53
  SPEAKER_03: Wimby felt slighted by that, he didn't like that, he didn't feel good about that, he was not fucking with that, right?
• 13:58
  SPEAKER_03: And now this what you satisfied with the World Cup when you were a teenager, please.
• 14:04
  SPEAKER_03: That is so I would be so irritated if he were on my team.
• 14:07
  SPEAKER_03: I'd be like, yo, sack up.
• 14:08
  SPEAKER_03: The fuck?
• 14:09
  SPEAKER_03: You you you got six-foot dudes guarding a seven six man because you what you you're scared?
• 14:14
  SPEAKER_03: Is it because he's skinny?
• 14:15
  SPEAKER_03: Is it because he's thin?
• 14:17
  SPEAKER_03: Because I'm gonna need you to get to get to China and get with the monks.
• 14:20
  SPEAKER_03: Listen, I don't know if Chet needs to get on the Giannis diet and bulk up, put on some muscle.
• 14:27
  SPEAKER_03: I I don't know if he needs to get on like whatever the opposite of Ozimpic is to bulk up and put on some muscle.
• 14:34
  SPEAKER_03: I'm gonna need you to be you, you the only one who got the facilities to be the answer to Wimby.
• 14:39
  SPEAKER_03: What the fuck are you doing?
• 14:40
  SPEAKER_03: Isaiah Hardenstein got got five fouls, right?
• 14:44
  SPEAKER_03: Like you should be able to pick up some.
• 14:46
  SPEAKER_03: I I was irritated.
• 14:48
  SPEAKER_03: I was irritated by that.
• 14:49
  SPEAKER_03: And I I want to Chet Holmgren off my screen with his soft ass.
• 14:52
  SPEAKER_03: That just just skeleton-like and standing there and wasting space and pissing me off.
• 14:58
  SPEAKER_03: I and I'm not even really throwing, I don't give a fuck, but uh, I want to see good basketball.
• 15:03
  SPEAKER_03: And I'm thinking Chet what, Chet, you a role player now?
• 15:07
  SPEAKER_03: I thought he was supposed to be a star.
• 15:12
  SPEAKER_03: My bad shit.
• 15:14
  SPEAKER_03: But maybe I just maybe I just you know had misrepresented expectations or something.
• 15:19
  SPEAKER_03: I don't know, but Chet Holmgren has disappointed the ever-living fuck out of me.
• 15:24
  SPEAKER_03: And that's not looking at the box score, baby.
• 15:26
  SPEAKER_03: That's that's the eye test.
• 15:27
  SPEAKER_03: I'm disappointed watching it.
• 15:29
  SPEAKER_03: Thank you.
• 15:29
  SPEAKER_03: Moving on to the next calf series, less interesting series, to be honest.
• 15:32
  SPEAKER_03: I've been trying to tell y'all about the fucking calves.
• 15:38
  SPEAKER_03: You know who I'm mad at?
• 15:40
  SPEAKER_03: Let's get real about this next calf series.
• 15:43
  SPEAKER_03: You wanna know who I'm mad at?
• 15:45
  SPEAKER_03: The Pistons.
• 15:46
  SPEAKER_03: That's who the fuck I that's who the fuck I got a bone to pick with.
• 15:49
  SPEAKER_03: The Pistons.
• 15:51
  SPEAKER_03: Cause I feel like at least that would have been interesting.
• 15:54
  SPEAKER_03: At least that would have been entertaining.
• 15:56
  SPEAKER_03: All year, the Pistons like, we want the Knicks, we want the Knicks.
• 16:00
  SPEAKER_03: Go fumble the bag right before you get to the Knicks.
• 16:02
  SPEAKER_03: I'm irritated at the Pistons, and I don't give a fuck about Detroit.
• 16:06
  SPEAKER_03: I'm not a Pistons fan, I don't give a fuck.
• 16:08
  SPEAKER_03: I just want to see good basketball.
• 16:10
  SPEAKER_03: I want to be entertained, thoroughly entertained.
• 16:11
  SPEAKER_03: And this is not entertaining.
• 16:12
  SPEAKER_03: I'm not entertained.
• 16:13
  SPEAKER_03: I don't give a fuck.
• 16:14
  SPEAKER_03: I'm entertained for the first half, right?
• 16:16
  SPEAKER_03: And obviously, game one was a bit of an anomaly.
• 16:21
  SPEAKER_03: I was at the Don Tolliver concert actually at State Bomb Arena, and they had the game playing in the little club I was in in the arena after the concert, so we were able to watch the end.
• 16:32
  SPEAKER_03: And I remember coming to the bathroom at one point during the concert and seeing that the calves were up by 20, and then coming back after the concert, and they were losing.
• 16:42
  SPEAKER_03: What what the f how how'd that happen?
• 16:45
  SPEAKER_03: How'd that happen?
• 16:46
  SPEAKER_03: And people people get upset with me because they say I got smoke for the calves, but this is the conference finals.
• 16:52
  SPEAKER_03: What are we doing?
• 16:53
  SPEAKER_03: I talked about this on my TikTok, but I want to bring it to the YouTube and the podcast girlies because I want to talk about James Harden.
• 17:00
  SPEAKER_03: Okay, James Harden, to explain for my girlies who don't typically watch basketball, he is parsley.
• 17:10
  SPEAKER_03: James Charles James Charles.
• 17:12
  SPEAKER_03: Oh god.
• 17:13
  SPEAKER_03: See?
• 17:14
  SPEAKER_03: James Harden is parsley.
• 17:16
  SPEAKER_03: Okay?
• 17:18
  SPEAKER_03: He goes in the seasoning cabinet, but he adds no flavor to the meal.
• 17:22
  SPEAKER_03: He doesn't.
• 17:23
  SPEAKER_03: He looks pretty.
• 17:25
  SPEAKER_03: He looks pretty.
• 17:25
  SPEAKER_03: He looks like he's gonna really add something.
• 17:27
  SPEAKER_03: He makes the dish look like a winner.
• 17:30
  SPEAKER_03: Just like parsley.
• 17:30
  SPEAKER_03: It makes the dish pretty.
• 17:31
  SPEAKER_03: It makes the dish look like a winner.
• 17:34
  SPEAKER_03: But it doesn't.
• 17:37
  SPEAKER_03: It doesn't taste like nothing.
• 17:39
  SPEAKER_03: You're not getting a Michelin star because you threw parsley on it.
• 17:42
  SPEAKER_03: You're not.
• 17:43
  SPEAKER_03: You're not getting a championship just because you threw James Harden on the team.
• 17:46
  SPEAKER_03: And I don't know what we're gonna learn.
• 17:48
  SPEAKER_03: I don't know what we're gonna learn.
• 17:49
  SPEAKER_03: It's kind of like the KD thing.
• 17:50
  SPEAKER_03: Don't come for me.
• 17:51
  SPEAKER_03: Whoa, I'm not in the mood for that.
• 17:52
  SPEAKER_03: It's kind of like the KD thing, right?
• 17:54
  SPEAKER_03: Only work for the Warriors.
• 17:56
  SPEAKER_03: Just because it worked for them don't mean it's gonna work for y'all.
• 17:58
  SPEAKER_03: Sorry.
• 17:59
  SPEAKER_03: And the Warriors were already a championship team.
• 18:04
  SPEAKER_03: You know?
• 18:06
  SPEAKER_03: Brooklyn.
• 18:07
  SPEAKER_03: Brooklyn tried it.
• 18:08
  SPEAKER_03: Philly, Philly tried it.
• 18:12
  SPEAKER_03: The Clippers, the Clippers tried it.
• 18:14
  SPEAKER_03: Now here you are, Cleveland, trying it.
• 18:17
  SPEAKER_03: Throwing parsley on it, trying to get a Michelin star.
• 18:19
  SPEAKER_03: It ain't gonna work.
• 18:21
  SPEAKER_03: It ain't gonna work.
• 18:23
  SPEAKER_03: And Donovan Mitchell, I'm never calling you Spider, but that's besides the point.
• 18:26
  SPEAKER_03: I don't like that nickname.
• 18:27
  SPEAKER_03: It just I don't know.
• 18:28
  SPEAKER_03: It doesn't roll off the town for me.
• 18:30
  SPEAKER_03: I guys I'm bored.
• 18:32
  SPEAKER_03: And the way the way Jalen Brunson was making James Harden dance, I just like I'm embarrassed.
• 18:43
  SPEAKER_03: I'm embarrassed.
• 18:46
  SPEAKER_03: The Knicks are way better than the name I gave them credit for.
• 18:49
  SPEAKER_03: They've now won nine playoff games in a row.
• 18:53
  SPEAKER_03: Like, just put some respect on their names, please.
• 18:56
  SPEAKER_03: But the Cavs last night, I eventually turned it off to watch Euphoria because I was just this, I'm not watching this shit.
• 19:04
  SPEAKER_03: Leaving Josh Hart wide open like that that many times.
• 19:10
  SPEAKER_03: Are y'all stupid?
• 19:12
  SPEAKER_03: I before the game when they did when they were all doing their little interviews, right?
• 19:16
  SPEAKER_03: And this is why it's important to watch those because you really learn a thing or two watching their little interviews.
• 19:20
  SPEAKER_03: Kenny Atkinson, James Harden, they were all talking about how James Harden got shot on by Jalen Brunson in game one, right?
• 19:28
  SPEAKER_03: They're all talking about it.
• 19:29
  SPEAKER_03: And Kenny's like, yeah, we wouldn't even be, we wouldn't even fucking got past round one without James.
• 19:35
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
• 19:35
  SPEAKER_03: I get it.
• 19:36
  SPEAKER_03: He's on your team.
• 19:36
  SPEAKER_03: You gotta rally behind him, right?
• 19:38
  SPEAKER_03: And then James is gonna say, I mean, fuck, Jalen Brunson.
• 19:42
  SPEAKER_03: He's just such a good one-on-one player.
• 19:43
  SPEAKER_03: We just gotta put more bodies on him.
• 19:45
  SPEAKER_03: Like, fuck.
• 19:46
  SPEAKER_03: Basically being like, I can't guard that nigga by myself.
• 19:48
  SPEAKER_03: The fuck I look like.
• 19:49
  SPEAKER_03: I'm old as shit.
• 19:51
  SPEAKER_03: Beard gray.
• 19:53
  SPEAKER_03: You put me on an island with Jalen Brunson, I'm gonna lose.
• 19:56
  SPEAKER_03: So figure it out.
• 19:56
  SPEAKER_03: Double team him.
• 19:57
  SPEAKER_03: Leave somebody else open.
• 19:58
  SPEAKER_03: And that looks, that's how you end up with Josh Hart putting your ass in the blender.
• 20:07
  SPEAKER_03: When Josh Hart rolled his ankle, got up, and made that three.
• 20:12
  SPEAKER_03: I was like, man, turn this shit off.
• 20:17
  SPEAKER_03: Man, turn this shit off.
• 20:20
  SPEAKER_03: What the fuck?
• 20:21
  SPEAKER_03: I'm looking at the chat to see what y'all are saying.
• 20:24
  SPEAKER_03: Hardman and KD need to team up again to cancel out.
• 20:27
  SPEAKER_03: We already tried that.
• 20:28
  SPEAKER_03: Oh my god.
• 20:29
  SPEAKER_03: Oh my god.
• 20:31
  SPEAKER_03: It was like it oh my god.
• 20:33
  SPEAKER_03: It was like the ultimate.
• 20:36
  SPEAKER_03: Oh my god.
• 20:37
  SPEAKER_03: Wow.
• 20:38
  SPEAKER_03: I need to think on that more before I speak on it, but wow.
• 20:40
  SPEAKER_03: Y'all really, y'all really introduced me to something there.
• 20:44
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah, I don't give a fuck about that series anymore.
• 20:49
  SPEAKER_03: I the Cavs are good at home though.
• 20:51
  SPEAKER_03: Okay, so we can say this.
• 20:53
  SPEAKER_03: The Cavs are good at home.
• 20:55
  SPEAKER_03: So they it isn't unrealistic to believe that they can get to a home.
• 20:58
  SPEAKER_03: I saw the Knicks lose to my Hawks, but I ain't seen them lose since.
• 21:04
  SPEAKER_03: I personally, I personally am rooting for a Knicks-Spurs finals.
• 21:10
  SPEAKER_03: That is what I want to see.
• 21:11
  SPEAKER_03: And it is really hard for me to pick who to root for in the Spurs OKC series because I genuinely like both teams.
• 21:17
  SPEAKER_03: I like players for both teams.
• 21:18
  SPEAKER_03: I I want to see people succeed from both teams.
• 21:21
  SPEAKER_03: And it's it was hard for me to pick when it came to OKC and the Spurs because I do feel like whoever wins this year, you better get you a one because Wimby is he's gonna go crazy, right?
• 21:32
  SPEAKER_03: But I genuinely think it would be good for the NBA if the Knicks won the championship for several reasons.
• 21:39
  SPEAKER_03: I'm a Steph Curry fan, and one of the things I love about watching Steph Curry play basketball is the fact that kids seeing Steph do it kind of made them believe that they could do it as well.
• 21:50
  SPEAKER_03: Because Steph isn't LeBron James.
• 21:53
  SPEAKER_03: He's not built like LeBron James, he doesn't look like he's not obviously you were born to be a fucking basketball player, right?
• 22:00
  SPEAKER_03: Nobody really believed in Steph Ottaway.
• 22:02
  SPEAKER_03: He had to like make a name for himself.
• 22:05
  SPEAKER_03: And I truly believe the same is true for Jalen Brunson.
• 22:09
  SPEAKER_03: He still gets the like, but can you lead a team to win a championship?
• 22:15
  SPEAKER_03: You he was called too short, too slow, too this, to that his whole career.
• 22:21
  SPEAKER_03: Even when he got to the Knicks, it was like a a bet, right?
• 22:27
  SPEAKER_03: And I think it would be really good for the NBA for a guy like that, a little man, to win a championship with Wimby on this horizon.
• 22:38
  SPEAKER_03: So the NBA doesn't start feeling like it did in 2017, where the in the end game is inevitable.
• 22:44
  SPEAKER_03: We all know what's gonna happen at the end.
• 22:46
  SPEAKER_03: No movie is interesting when that when that's the case.
• 22:49
  SPEAKER_03: And now I will say, in a superhero movie, right, you always know that they're gonna get out of the situation and the superhero is gonna save them, and you kind of know how it's gonna end, and the way they get there is the interesting part.
• 22:58
  SPEAKER_03: So maybe that's how the NBA era is gonna be when Wimby is the star and he's winning all the time.
• 23:03
  SPEAKER_03: But I think for now it would be nice to see that it's possible to beat him, and it will be nice to see that come at the hands of a little guy.
• 23:15
  SPEAKER_03: And on top of that, with him playing for the Knicks, I'm from Atlanta, and for some reason we're a small market, which is just fucking crazy.
• 23:23
  SPEAKER_03: Like Atlanta, I consider Atlanta a big city.
• 23:25
  SPEAKER_03: We're not talking about me right now.
• 23:27
  SPEAKER_03: I just feel like it's good for the NBA when teams like the Knicks or the Celtics or the Lakers are good.
• 23:34
  SPEAKER_03: It is, and it is very interesting.
• 23:37
  SPEAKER_03: This Madison Square Garden, Knicks fans being super excited, having dance parties after the games.
• 23:43
  SPEAKER_03: Like, I do like that.
• 23:44
  SPEAKER_03: And it's and the team is likable on top of that.
• 23:47
  SPEAKER_03: I actually used to hate, I used to be such a fucking Knicks hater when Julius Randle played there.
• 23:52
  SPEAKER_03: And it's it's funny that everyone's catching on to the to Julius Randle hate because I used to always call him a bull in the china shop when he was playing for the Knicks.
• 23:59
  SPEAKER_03: I could not stand his ass.
• 24:00
  SPEAKER_03: So I the Knicks were very unlikable then to me.
• 24:03
  SPEAKER_03: Now very likable.
• 24:04
  SPEAKER_03: I I like that Josh Hart and Jalen Brunson and McCall Bur I always call him McCall and y'all get on me, Mikhail Bridges, are college teammates.
• 24:13
  SPEAKER_03: Could you imagine going to an NBA championship with your college friends?
• 24:18
  SPEAKER_03: Because y'all, college friends are different.
• 24:21
  SPEAKER_03: Like, there's levels to friends, and the friends you went to college with, the things you experienced together, it's just ain't nothing like a college friend.
• 24:30
  SPEAKER_03: And winning an NBA championship together, I mean that what would what's that say about Villanova?
• 24:34
  SPEAKER_03: From that, you know what I'm saying?
• 24:36
  SPEAKER_03: Period.
• 24:37
  SPEAKER_03: Period.
• 24:38
  SPEAKER_03: And then cat.
• 24:40
  SPEAKER_03: Cat, cat, cat, cat, cat.
• 24:42
  SPEAKER_03: Jordan Wood's boyfriend.
• 24:44
  SPEAKER_03: Him getting to win a championship after Minnesota gave up on him in New York and be cemented as like a New York legend.
• 24:51
  SPEAKER_03: I think it would eat.
• 24:54
  SPEAKER_03: Do I think at this point it is realistic for the Knicks to be the Spurs?
• 25:09
  SPEAKER_03: I don't know.
• 25:12
  SPEAKER_03: But but but that's what I'm hoping for.
• 25:17
  SPEAKER_03: Well, guys, who do you guys think are going to the finals?
• 25:21
  SPEAKER_03: Let me know.
• 25:22
  SPEAKER_03: Who's gonna win?
• 25:24
  SPEAKER_03: Actually.
• 25:24
  SPEAKER_03: I mean, I think we all know that I I think the Knicks are gonna beat the Cavs, right?
• 25:28
  SPEAKER_03: Someone said, I hope OKC wins so that the Knicks win.
• 25:31
  SPEAKER_03: That's what I've been hearing a lot of that people are thinking that if OKC wins their series against the Spurs, they have a better chance, the Knicks have a better chance at beating them than they do the Spurs.
• 25:42
  SPEAKER_03: But my thing with the OKC, it in like I was saying earlier, I had a hard time choosing who to root for between OKC and the Spurs because I do like both teams and I like players from both teams and I like SGA and I want him to like have that like moment, but at the same time, they won last year.
• 25:58
  SPEAKER_03: They won last year, like you got your one.
• 26:02
  SPEAKER_03: Gone.
• 26:03
  SPEAKER_03: You won already.
• 26:04
  SPEAKER_03: We saw this, we've seen this movie already, you know?
• 26:06
  SPEAKER_03: Like, I don't care.
• 26:07
  SPEAKER_03: The Knicks beat the Spurs before during the NBA Cup.
• 26:10
  SPEAKER_03: I think they have a chance.
• 26:11
  SPEAKER_03: I hope so, but listen, child.
• 26:14
  SPEAKER_03: Wimby is hungry.
• 26:15
  SPEAKER_03: I think they can win it all.
• 26:16
  SPEAKER_03: If Wimby wins a championship, can we talk about that for a second?
• 26:22
  SPEAKER_03: What is going to happen to the NBA if Wimby wins a championship and his first year is in the year in the playoffs?
• 26:29
  SPEAKER_03: What does that mean?
• 26:31
  SPEAKER_03: If Wimby wins the championship his first year in the playoffs, I don't I'm okay.
• 26:48
  SPEAKER_03: I'm good off of that.
• 26:49
  SPEAKER_03: I'm good off of that.
• 26:50
  SPEAKER_03: I'm good, I'm I'm I'm totally cool off of that.
• 26:52
  SPEAKER_03: I'm totally cool off of that.
• 26:53
  SPEAKER_03: I don't know.
• 26:54
  SPEAKER_03: I like Wim B, but like you can win later.
• 26:56
  SPEAKER_03: I want the Knicks to win.
• 26:57
  SPEAKER_03: And plus I'm a Hawks fan, and I feel like if you beat my team, you gotta win it all.
• 27:02
  SPEAKER_03: I don't know.
• 27:03
  SPEAKER_03: If you if you beat me, you gotta win it all.
• 27:06
  SPEAKER_03: That's it.
• 27:07
  SPEAKER_03: That's all, that's it, that's all she wrote.
• 27:09
  SPEAKER_03: The NFL dropped the NFL schedule dropped on May 14th, and the season kicks off on September 9th with the Super Bowl rematch, Seahawks versus Patriots.
• 27:17
  SPEAKER_03: And we are going to be judging the release videos during film study later in the show, so make sure you stay tuned for that because I'm literally gonna watch them on live with you guys and react to them, and it's gonna be so much fun.
• 27:27
  SPEAKER_03: Now, for the hot girl lesson of the day.
• 27:30
  SPEAKER_03: Oh, also, let me put my phone number on the screen.
• 27:34
  SPEAKER_03: Guys, if you want to leave me a voicemail, because I'm not gonna answer right now, obviously, because I'm talking to you guys, but call and leave me a voicemail right now.
• 27:44
  SPEAKER_03: Do it, go call me.
• 27:45
  SPEAKER_03: This is my phone number, it's on the screen.
• 27:46
  SPEAKER_03: 678-879-5279 because later in the show I'm going to be taking calls on live.
• 27:53
  SPEAKER_03: Okay?
• 27:53
  SPEAKER_03: You can ask me anything.
• 27:55
  SPEAKER_03: Now's your chance.
• 27:56
  SPEAKER_03: Shoot.
• 27:56
  SPEAKER_03: But I've been yelled at a couple times during live calls.
• 28:00
  SPEAKER_03: I prefer that to not occur.
• 28:02
  SPEAKER_03: But hey, whatever, I'm a big girl.
• 28:05
  SPEAKER_03: So next, we're gonna get into our hot girl lesson of the day.
• 28:08
  SPEAKER_03: So basically, we're gonna talk about the final four teams left in the NBA and their drama, and I'm gonna basically kind of talk about the reason, if so, why they need to win the championship this year.
• 28:18
  SPEAKER_03: So, first we're gonna start with the Oklahoma City Thunder, okay?
• 28:22
  SPEAKER_03: They're the defending champs, their star, Shea Gilgest Alexander, just won his back-to-back MVP award, and they need this to start a dynasty.
• 28:32
  SPEAKER_03: Basically, in the NBA, when it comes to your legacy, you aren't in the GOAT conversation or the greatest point guards or the greatest there, or it takes you to a certain level when you win two championships because it's kind of you know, not everybody can win one, but winning one is one thing.
• 28:50
  SPEAKER_03: But winning two or more, or winning back to back, really puts you in a different conversation.
• 28:56
  SPEAKER_03: And with OKC being a small market, and I think that's also an interesting part of this whole playoffs conversation for this year.
• 29:06
  SPEAKER_03: The only big market really left in the playoffs is New York.
• 29:12
  SPEAKER_03: The Knicks are really it as far as big market teams are concerned in the playoffs, and OKC being like a little fish as far as being in Oklahoma and Shagildish Alexander winning back-to-back MVPs.
• 29:26
  SPEAKER_03: He kinda needs to win a championship to justify that.
• 29:29
  SPEAKER_03: Not to me, but just like narrative-wise, it would really help out his case if he wins another championship.
• 29:35
  SPEAKER_03: And overall, they've just put such a good team together, and eventually they're gonna run into a situation with having to pay a lot of these guys, and it's gonna be a whole thing.
• 29:41
  SPEAKER_03: Like, this team can only stay together for so long.
• 29:44
  SPEAKER_03: I think that they it'd be a good time to win a championship, especially with the rise of Wimby happening.
• 29:50
  SPEAKER_03: He's only gonna get better, the Spurs are only gonna get better, they're only gonna grow together, and it's going to become harder, as well as the fact that the West is difficult.
• 29:58
  SPEAKER_03: The West is difficult, and every single team is going to be reloading.
• 30:02
  SPEAKER_03: And when you're the when you're the defending champs, the teams are loading up to beat you.
• 30:08
  SPEAKER_03: So it's only gonna get harder for them to win.
• 30:11
  SPEAKER_03: We saw that happen kind of with the nuggets.
• 30:13
  SPEAKER_03: Like, it's it'd be nice for you to get one now.
• 30:17
  SPEAKER_03: People are saying the Spurs are a big market team.
• 30:20
  SPEAKER_03: Okay, guys, small market team and big market team are not about, it's not about like, oh, you have good fans.
• 30:28
  SPEAKER_03: Okay, see, he's great fans.
• 30:29
  SPEAKER_03: It's not about that.
• 30:30
  SPEAKER_03: It's it's not about that, it's not about that, it's not about that, it's not about that, it's not about that.
• 30:34
  SPEAKER_03: I would say, oh god, am I putting myself in a situation where I'm gonna get cussed out?
• 30:38
  SPEAKER_03: Because I think it's very common sense.
• 30:39
  SPEAKER_03: Like, I'm like, I think it's very common sense what the big market teams are in the NBA.
• 30:44
  SPEAKER_03: The Knicks, the Celtics, I would say the Lakers, obviously.
• 30:53
  SPEAKER_03: Who else is a big market?
• 30:56
  SPEAKER_03: The Golden State Warriors, obviously.
• 30:59
  SPEAKER_03: There's gotta be another one, like there has to be five.
• 31:01
  SPEAKER_03: I feel like I'm forgetting somebody.
• 31:03
  SPEAKER_03: Yeah, that's it.
• 31:07
  SPEAKER_03: The Lakers, the Celtics, the Knicks, and the Warriors.
• 31:11
  SPEAKER_03: I would say those are the only big market.
• 31:13
  SPEAKER_03: You can be like a, you know, woo, but you ain't no big market.
• 31:16
  SPEAKER_03: The Spurs are not no big market team.
• 31:18
  SPEAKER_03: Stop it right now.
• 31:19
  SPEAKER_03: Absolutely not.
• 31:20
  SPEAKER_03: Denver, Denver, guys, guys, we have to get serious with each other for a second.
• 31:28
  SPEAKER_03: Chat, chat.
• 31:29
  SPEAKER_03: Is Denver a big market team?
• 31:31
  SPEAKER_03: Come on now.
• 31:32
  SPEAKER_03: Denver.
• 31:33
  SPEAKER_03: People are saying Miami.
• 31:34
  SPEAKER_03: Okay, okay, Miami, I can see.
• 31:36
  SPEAKER_03: Miami, I could see for show.
• 31:37
  SPEAKER_03: Miami, I can see for show.
• 31:39
  SPEAKER_03: I I don't know if I will call them, I will call them like large.
• 31:42
  SPEAKER_03: I don't know about big big market.
• 31:48
  SPEAKER_03: I don't know about that.
• 31:49
  SPEAKER_03: Like long, I don't I'm not gonna I wouldn't call them small market, but I think I don't know.
• 31:56
  SPEAKER_03: The Lakers, Celtics, Knicks, Warriors, I think that's it.
• 32:00
  SPEAKER_03: Sorry.
• 32:00
  SPEAKER_03: Dallas.
• 32:01
  SPEAKER_03: I thought about Dallas, but I I honestly I don't know about that.
• 32:06
  SPEAKER_03: I would say they're popular, right?
• 32:08
  SPEAKER_03: Like, people give a fuck about Dallas for sure.
• 32:11
  SPEAKER_03: Big market, no, I wouldn't say that.
• 32:14
  SPEAKER_03: I do want to answer this real quick.
• 32:16
  SPEAKER_03: Somebody in the chat, Jazz, asked me, do you bet on sports?
• 32:20
  SPEAKER_03: And no, I do not bet on sports.
• 32:23
  SPEAKER_03: And it is a really big dilemma in working in sports and being a sports content creator because there's so there's so much to gain in the betting world, let me just put it that way.
• 32:36
  SPEAKER_03: And I try, I'm trying to steer clear from betting, like I really am, because I just think it ruins the fun of sports.
• 32:45
  SPEAKER_03: I'm not really into gambling in general.
• 32:47
  SPEAKER_03: I like my money where I can see it in my closet.
• 32:49
  SPEAKER_03: So I'm not a big gambling person and I love sports, and I don't want to tie money in with sports, it's gonna ruin the whole thing for me.
• 32:57
  SPEAKER_03: I don't understand why people enjoy that.
• 32:58
  SPEAKER_03: I really don't.
• 33:00
  SPEAKER_03: I really don't.
• 33:01
  SPEAKER_03: I think it puts the players in a dangerous situation because people are you're when you put your money in I I I take money very seriously, your livelihood on the line by putting your trust in some man you don't know dribbling a basketball, like it put it puts everybody in an uncomfortable situation, including the players, because now my money was lost because of you, and like mentally there's this like anger that shouldn't exist.
• 33:26
  SPEAKER_03: Like me making money or my livelihood shouldn't depend on whether a player scores a certain amount of points or gets a certain amount of rebounds or this, that, or the third.
• 33:34
  SPEAKER_03: And I I know I'm being chopped and unk right now, but I just don't it's not for me.
• 33:40
  SPEAKER_03: It's not for me.
• 33:41
  SPEAKER_03: I like I would rather I'd rather how much money I make be in my own hands and not like in the hands of like the basketball gods or play like it's just I'm I'm not a fan of it, and it's so it's so embedded into the sports world now.
• 33:59
  SPEAKER_03: I was talking to my boyfriend last night while we were watching the Cavs play the Knicks about how every single commercial is betting, insurance, a random like chat GBT ad medicine.
• 34:13
  SPEAKER_03: That's it.
• 34:14
  SPEAKER_03: Drugs every single commercial when you're watching sports is drugs, insurance, gambling.
• 34:28
  SPEAKER_03: Like, I don't know.
• 34:31
  SPEAKER_03: I love the real app because it's all fake money.
• 34:33
  SPEAKER_03: I've never sold a credit credit card, and honestly, it would be fun if you could bet make hold on, maybe I should have been this.
• 34:41
  SPEAKER_03: It would be fun if you could like sport because it does add to the experience of watching the game, like it does make you give a fuck more about the game when you're like paying attention to your parlay or something.
• 34:49
  SPEAKER_03: But maybe if you could win like fun stuff that doesn't matter as much, like I don't know, like clothes or something.
• 34:58
  SPEAKER_03: I don't know, like girly pop stuff that like is fun, and it's not like I want to go kill Jalen Brown because he didn't like get a certain amount of points, you know.
• 35:05
  SPEAKER_03: Like it's like oh fuck, I could have gotten an IMG asset and I didn't, you know, like but also it's like you're paying closer attention because of your bets.
• 35:13
  SPEAKER_03: I don't know, but money is just a little bit too serious.
• 35:17
  SPEAKER_03: So no, I don't sports bet.
• 35:20
  SPEAKER_03: It's time for me to take calls.
• 35:24
  SPEAKER_03: Okay, let me get my phone.
• 35:26
  SPEAKER_03: Let me check on my little voicemails, and I'm on I'm on my little phone, so if you want to call me, I will answer and I will answer your question on live.
• 35:36
  SPEAKER_03: But I reserve the right to hang up on your ass if you don't know how to act.
• 35:38
  SPEAKER_03: Okay, let's hear what this one person is saying.
• 35:41
  SPEAKER_02: Hey honey, it's me, Joanna, aka Super Duper Joy with an I and I'm from South Carolina, big USD Game Cost Women's basketball fan.
• 35:55
  SPEAKER_02: I've been to a couple games this uh past year, and I am ticked off that we did not win the championship, but I'm still gonna ride for my girls regardless.
• 36:06
  SPEAKER_02: Um I just wanted to know what um words you have for the Lady Game Cost, Don Staley, uh past uh present and future, because you know I saw uh Isa Wilson actually and one of the Aces game.
• 36:23
  SPEAKER_02: I'm also an Aces fan, loved Unrivaled, so that was like my basketball highlight of the of the year, seeing um the girls do their thing and unrivaled and get that CBA.
• 36:38
  SPEAKER_02: But um, yeah, so what's some words of wisdom, advice, or love you have for the USC Lady Gamecock?
• 36:48
  SPEAKER_03: Um, so hi Joanna.
• 36:50
  SPEAKER_03: She asked me if I have any words of advice for the South Carolina Lady Game Cox.
• 36:56
  SPEAKER_03: Honestly, I don't think that they're in a bad spot, to be honest.
• 37:01
  SPEAKER_03: Like, they I don't think that they're in a bad spot.
• 37:05
  SPEAKER_03: It's really hard to win the championship every single year in college, right?
• 37:11
  SPEAKER_03: And they always somehow end up really in the same spot, in a good spot.
• 37:17
  SPEAKER_03: I think as long as they have Don Staley, she has the power to recruit and she has the power to put amazing teams together.
• 37:24
  SPEAKER_03: And I think that South Carolina is gonna be fine, to be honest.
• 37:27
  SPEAKER_03: I'm I'm not I'm not worried about them.
• 37:30
  SPEAKER_03: I know that's not like a butt answer, but I think South Carolina will be fine.
• 37:34
  SPEAKER_03: We'll see next year.
• 37:36
  SPEAKER_01: Hey Mariah, I hope you're having a good day.
• 37:38
  SPEAKER_01: Love your content.
• 37:39
  SPEAKER_01: Um I would love to know your thoughts on the Dallas Wings coaching, offense, rotations.
• 37:46
  SPEAKER_01: Why do you think Jose is place to place like he is?
• 37:49
  SPEAKER_01: Do you feel like he thinks covering like some people are thinking on social media?
• 37:53
  SPEAKER_01: Um, or do you think he's just prepping AC in because she had such a long season?
• 37:58
  SPEAKER_01: Would love to know your thoughts.
• 37:59
  SPEAKER_01: Personally, I do think it's very odd that the best players he's not starting, even including AZ.
• 38:05
  SPEAKER_01: Um, I do think it's weird that he's forced out to other players.
• 38:09
  SPEAKER_01: But yeah, thank you so much.
• 38:10
  SPEAKER_01: Hopefully, enjoy your day.
• 38:11
  SPEAKER_03: So she was asking me about the wings and whether or not I think that their new coach was being stubborn.
• 38:15
  SPEAKER_03: And my thing is, okay, so for the girls who don't know, Aisie Fudd, number one pick in the WNBA draft, didn't start for the dream or the wings.
• 38:27
  SPEAKER_03: If you don't already know, Azy Fudd didn't start for the wings, and people are up in arms about it.
• 38:32
  SPEAKER_03: Everybody has an opinion.
• 38:33
  SPEAKER_03: Ais Fud was the number one pick, so obviously everyone was kind of expecting her to start.
• 38:38
  SPEAKER_03: And here's my thing: I just feel like they do have a lot of good guards on that team.
• 38:45
  SPEAKER_03: They they do have a lot of good guards on that team, and she came off of a long season, and I don't think he's being stubborn.
• 38:58
  SPEAKER_03: I think that it he's a new coach, and I think it's a new season.
• 39:01
  SPEAKER_03: And what are they three?
• 39:03
  SPEAKER_03: I think they're four games in, four games in, right?
• 39:06
  SPEAKER_03: They're like four games into the season.
• 39:07
  SPEAKER_03: How's he being stubborn if the season just started?
• 39:10
  SPEAKER_03: It's barely been a week.
• 39:12
  SPEAKER_03: Like, I think that you guys need to be more patient.
• 39:15
  SPEAKER_03: Patient.
• 39:15
  SPEAKER_03: It's like everyone overreacted to the Aces having a rough start last year, and then they were fine.
• 39:20
  SPEAKER_03: So I I don't overreact to the beginning of a basketball season.
• 39:23
  SPEAKER_03: I just don't.
• 39:24
  SPEAKER_03: It's a long season, they've got time.
• 39:25
  SPEAKER_03: He's a new coach, he's got things to figure out, and that gap between college and the W is so fucking small.
• 39:31
  SPEAKER_03: It's really hard to like figure anything out during the preseason and during training camp.
• 39:35
  SPEAKER_03: Training camp is what, like three days?
• 39:38
  SPEAKER_03: It's give it time, I'm sure it'll be fine.
• 39:41
  SPEAKER_03: They do look a little bit better, you know.
• 39:44
  SPEAKER_03: Like, I just think I think people are overreacting a little bit.
• 39:47
  SPEAKER_03: I do, I do, and it sucks for AZ.
• 39:49
  SPEAKER_03: It really, really does.
• 39:51
  SPEAKER_03: But I think that she's gonna have an excellent career and she's gonna figure it out, and their coach is gonna figure it out, and everything is gonna be fine.
• 39:56
  SPEAKER_03: So I I I'm not gonna overreact.
• 39:58
  SPEAKER_03: I'm I'm not, I know it's no fun, but I'm not.
• 40:02
  SPEAKER_03: Okay, let's see.
• 40:04
  SPEAKER_00: Hey girl, so I'm on my way to school because you know I have to get my fill in.
• 40:11
  SPEAKER_00: But I know you want to mention you're going to the F1 grand prix this weekend, and as somebody who loves your podcast and loves F1.
• 40:19
  SPEAKER_00: I just want to know like, is it anything you're super excited for?
• 40:22
  SPEAKER_00: Um, and if you did have to pick an F1 team or a driver, who was your pick?
• 40:29
  SPEAKER_00: Um, that's pretty much it.
• 40:30
  SPEAKER_00: Have a great day, have a great weekend, and so much love from the Bay Area.
• 40:34
  SPEAKER_03: From the Bay Area, Bay Area.
• 40:36
  SPEAKER_03: You know I love y'all because I'm a Steph Curry stan, so of course.
• 40:40
  SPEAKER_03: Um, so I went to the F1 Grand Prix, is what she's referring to in Miami, and I love Formula One.
• 40:46
  SPEAKER_03: I really do.
• 40:46
  SPEAKER_03: I really, really do.
• 40:47
  SPEAKER_03: And I thought that the actual race in person was gonna be a little bit boring to me because it's so long, it was like 57 laps, and we were outside, and it was like, I thought it was gonna be, you know, half paying attention.
• 40:56
  SPEAKER_03: I thought it was gonna be more of like a girly fun thing, and I genuinely paid attention to the whole race.
• 41:00
  SPEAKER_03: Like, I genuinely paid attention and gave a fuck.
• 41:02
  SPEAKER_03: Like it was so good.
• 41:03
  SPEAKER_03: Kimmy Antonelli won, and I thought that was fun too because he's the the little young buck, and I I my favorite thing about Formula One is the fact that they beef with their own teammates.
• 41:13
  SPEAKER_03: I don't know if you guys know this, but there's like, oh, somebody's calling.
• 41:16
  SPEAKER_03: Somebody's calling.
• 41:17
  SPEAKER_03: Should I answer a last call?
• 41:18
  SPEAKER_03: Oh, they hung up! I was just about to answer.
• 41:21
  SPEAKER_03: Hopefully, they leave a voicemail, but um, I think it would be fun, or I think it's fun how they beef with their teammates.
• 41:29
  SPEAKER_03: Like, there's two drivers on each team, and there's so few spots.
• 41:33
  SPEAKER_03: There's 22 Formula One drivers in the world that they're kind of fighting for their spot every single race.
• 41:39
  SPEAKER_03: And so the fact that they beef with their teammates because like they don't want to lose their seat, and so they can't, they don't want their teammate to come off like the number one driver because then they're expendable, and it causes them to beef, but they both still have to work together because the team has to get points and the team has to win, and they have to make the team happy.
• 41:53
  SPEAKER_03: Very interesting.
• 41:54
  SPEAKER_03: And like George Russell is like, you know, he was taking Kimmy under his wing and drive to survive, and then Kimmy wins the Grand Prix.
• 42:01
  SPEAKER_03: It's it's just T and it's very, very interesting.
• 42:02
  SPEAKER_03: I'll be frustrated as hell.
• 42:04
  SPEAKER_03: And it's interesting because your teammate is the only person who has the same car as you and the exact same equipment as you.
• 42:09
  SPEAKER_03: So if your teammate is doing better than you, it's just because they're a better driver than you, and that's very interesting.
• 42:14
  SPEAKER_03: And then to answer the second part of your question, if I had to pick a team or a driver, my team would be Ferrari.
• 42:20
  SPEAKER_03: Duh.
• 42:21
  SPEAKER_03: Um Lewis Hamilton is the only black Formula One driver, and I root for him.
• 42:25
  SPEAKER_03: Um, it is kind of like rooting for LeBron in the NBA now.
• 42:29
  SPEAKER_03: Like he's older, like he like goes to Coachella and dates Kim Kardashian, and it's like less serious.
• 42:35
  SPEAKER_03: But I would pick, I'd pick Ferrari.
• 42:39
  SPEAKER_03: Like, they've got they've got Aura, and red is my hair color, so yay! Um, all right, that is it for taking calls.
• 42:49
  SPEAKER_03: I should really do a full episode on Formula One because it's so much fun.
• 42:53
  SPEAKER_03: I really do love it, and so maybe maybe that'll come.
• 42:56
  SPEAKER_03: I also have to do my World Cup special, so we've got a lot going on.
• 43:03
  SPEAKER_03: Alright, now let's move on to film study.
• 43:07
  SPEAKER_03: So, some context for what we're gonna be talking about in the film study today.
• 43:11
  SPEAKER_03: I'm actually so excited about this.
• 43:14
  SPEAKER_03: Is we are going to be reviewing the schedule releases of the NFL teams.
• 43:18
  SPEAKER_03: So, if you guys don't know, and I take this very seriously because I used to be on the social team for an NBA team, and so I know what a crazy time schedule release is.
• 43:26
  SPEAKER_03: But every May, the 32 NFL teams drop creative videos to announce their schedule.
• 43:30
  SPEAKER_03: It's basically like the Super Bowl for social media teams.
• 43:33
  SPEAKER_03: And we're gonna grade them on creativity and how much we like them.
• 43:37
  SPEAKER_03: And no, we are not watching every single video in their entirety because I've already watched most of them.
• 43:42
  SPEAKER_03: Um, if I'm bored, I'm turning it off.
• 43:44
  SPEAKER_03: So, yeah.
• 43:45
  SPEAKER_03: Okay, um, basically, I I'm not gonna go through all these videos.
• 43:49
  SPEAKER_03: It's just, it's it's too long.
• 43:50
  SPEAKER_03: It's too long.
• 43:51
  SPEAKER_03: So I'm gonna talk about the ones that I think were the best and the ones that I think are just okay.
• 43:57
  SPEAKER_03: All right.
• 43:58
  unknown: Um
• 44:00
  SPEAKER_03: So, first of all, hold on.
• 44:03
  SPEAKER_03: Where's my little screen?
• 44:04
  SPEAKER_03: Okay, I think this is boring and lazy.
• 44:07
  SPEAKER_03: The Vikings.
• 44:08
  SPEAKER_03: I I don't think that this eats like a menu and just like the food.
• 44:12
  SPEAKER_03: Like, I I don't think that that's that great.
• 44:14
  SPEAKER_03: Did we just become best friends the Raiders schedule?
• 44:18
  SPEAKER_03: I'm not gonna I don't wanna say what I wanna say about that one because it's kind of giving me I don't know.
• 44:26
  SPEAKER_03: It's kinda giving me it's kinda giving me this seems like white people humor.
• 44:35
  SPEAKER_03: Like, I don't know.
• 44:36
  SPEAKER_03: I just like I'm not a big fan of that.
• 44:39
  SPEAKER_03: I will say, okay, basically, we're not gonna watch all these because it's too long.
• 44:43
  SPEAKER_03: I love you guys, but we're not.
• 44:44
  SPEAKER_03: I I don't care.
• 44:46
  SPEAKER_03: I will say the one that I thought that was that was the best and one that pissed me the fuck off.
• 44:52
  SPEAKER_03: Alright.
• 44:53
  SPEAKER_03: So of the NFL schedule releases, the one that I think is the best, and the team that I think was the most creative was the Cowboys.
• 45:02
  SPEAKER_03: I think the Cowboys had the best schedule release video.
• 45:06
  SPEAKER_03: It was so good and it was so funny, and I genuinely laughed out loud and it had players in it.
• 45:10
  SPEAKER_03: Dap was in it, it was very good.
• 45:12
  SPEAKER_03: The Eagles kind of pissed me off, and another one that pissed me off was the paint one.
• 45:16
  SPEAKER_03: I can't remember what team that was.
• 45:17
  SPEAKER_03: The paint one, yeah, I'm not watching all that.
• 45:19
  SPEAKER_03: Like, I'm sorry.
• 45:20
  SPEAKER_03: The paint one really irritated me.
• 45:22
  SPEAKER_03: Mm-mm.
• 45:23
  SPEAKER_03: Mm-mm.
• 45:23
  SPEAKER_03: Mm-mm.
• 45:24
  SPEAKER_03: Absolutely not.
• 45:25
  SPEAKER_03: But the Cowboys, by far, yes.
• 45:28
  SPEAKER_03: Sonia, Sonia agrees with me.
• 45:30
  SPEAKER_03: By far the best one for sure.
• 45:32
  SPEAKER_03: Alright, y'all.
