ABOUT THIS EPISODE
Imagine pulling up a courtside seat as the NBA season's intensity hits fever pitch—Coach Murph and I, Podcast Paul, are here to transport you right into the action. This week we dissect the monumental clash between the Denver Nuggets and Boston Celtics, a tussle that could be a crystal ball into the NBA Finals. We are also joined by our friend of the program, Caden Neves out of Grandville High School who provides us an update on his basketball journey and highlights from the season so far.
Step into the locker room where we crack the code on what it takes for a team to truly click. It's not just about the splashy numbers on the stat sheet—it's the unspoken bond between players, the bench depth, and those moments when the stars aren't shining that tell the full story. We also dissect a contentious technical foul that had everyone talking, before launching into a foul quiz that might just stump the most seasoned of fans. Our commitment to the game is as tenacious as a Tony Allen defensive stand, speaking of whom, we reminisce about "The Grindfather's" impact.
As we approach the All-Star break, the NBA's heartbeat, we reflect on the journeys that define this sport. It's not just about chasing the championship; it's about the connections forged along the way, the stories of perseverance, and the relentless pursuit of greatness on and off the court. So, join us as we lace up our sneakers and gear up for a podcast episode that's as dynamic as a buzzer-beater three-pointer to clinch the game.

00:01:22.447 --> 00:01:28.668
This is one of my favorite things to do just have my brother time and we just talk hoops and just have a good time.

Chop it up, baby, let's go, Chop it up man there's so much to talk about since the last time we were on, but really what I wanted to do today, if you're cool with this Coach again.
00:01:47.825 --> 00:01:51.445
I kicked it off saying it's a mid-season, we're 42 games in.
00:01:51.445 --> 00:01:53.344
I want to go high level man.
00:01:53.344 --> 00:01:55.105
Let's look at the NBA.

We love NBA.
00:01:56.228 --> 00:01:56.962
It's why we're here.
00:01:56.962 --> 00:01:59.959

00:01:59.959 --> 00:02:01.365
Remember we're on this journey to June.
00:02:01.365 --> 00:02:02.444
I love the NBA.
00:02:02.840 --> 00:02:07.228
I say that loud, I know recently I'm like people like ugh three.
00:02:07.228 --> 00:02:14.429
It's so easy to hate in the NBA because of numerous things we'll talk about today, but I don't care, I love it.
00:02:14.429 --> 00:02:20.586
It's so entertaining and I'm talking to really people that like it doesn't matter, let that all go, all this stuff.
00:02:20.586 --> 00:02:24.507
That's what I've been doing recently, enjoying just this game.
00:02:24.507 --> 00:02:30.028
We'll get into all of just like the entertainment value, but all the rivalry is going on.
00:02:30.028 --> 00:02:33.050
It's some new, fresh stuff coming into the league.
00:02:33.050 --> 00:02:35.486
It's all so much positive focus on it.
00:02:35.707 --> 00:02:36.349
That's what I'm doing.
00:02:36.349 --> 00:02:38.508
I like how you said rivals, and we're going to do that.
00:02:38.508 --> 00:02:39.463
That was a little teaser.
00:02:39.463 --> 00:02:44.368
That's what we call here a pod a teaser Because this is NBA Rivals Week.
00:02:44.368 --> 00:02:45.522
We'll get into that.
00:02:45.522 --> 00:02:48.084
We'll get into that, but let's go.
00:02:48.123 --> 00:02:50.706
Paul Casper, I get prediction P, all the predictions, paul.
00:02:50.706 --> 00:02:52.826
Oh my gosh, the Timberwolves on top.
00:02:52.826 --> 00:02:54.907
Let's go, man, we're on fire.
00:02:54.907 --> 00:02:58.122
J2m's is inflamed and let's go.
00:03:00.427 --> 00:03:04.986
So it's also the journey to June, right Journey, and sitting here at the midseason.
00:03:04.986 --> 00:03:09.582
It's cool Because now you can really get a good look of those teams that have a shot.
00:03:09.582 --> 00:03:12.387
And we got to start right from the top.
00:03:12.387 --> 00:03:14.687
It's like you said, it's January 20.
00:03:14.687 --> 00:03:18.169
We're coming fresh off in the garden.
00:03:18.169 --> 00:03:20.620
Denver versus Boston.
00:03:20.620 --> 00:03:25.090
They even said to start the game.
00:03:25.090 --> 00:03:30.219
It's a little cold outside, but in here it feels a little warm.
00:03:30.219 --> 00:03:35.748
It feels a little bit like June, if you know what I mean, and I got to tell you that was before the game.
00:03:35.748 --> 00:03:37.066
Then I watched the game.
00:03:37.066 --> 00:03:44.387
Man, if this is June, if this is the NBA Finals, wow, what a matchup that was a cool matchup Now it's fun.
00:03:45.224 --> 00:03:49.044
I think you type those later on, so maybe you respect me why I didn't text them because it's so late.
00:03:49.044 --> 00:03:52.584
I was surprised I didn't get any text during because of that loss.
00:03:52.584 --> 00:03:56.310
The Nuggets beat the Celtics yesterday 102 to 100.
00:03:56.310 --> 00:03:58.606
And those are two great teams.
00:03:58.606 --> 00:04:00.020
Nuggets are 29 to 14.
00:04:00.020 --> 00:04:02.528
Celtics are 32 and 10 on top of the East.
00:04:02.528 --> 00:04:04.006
Three and a half games.
00:04:04.006 --> 00:04:05.627
When is that ever happening?
00:04:05.627 --> 00:04:07.639
We're usually like seconds.
00:04:07.639 --> 00:04:10.328
We've never had three and a half on that.
00:04:10.368 --> 00:04:16.161
No, no, I think it's going to be three after today, because the Bucks, as we're talking, I think they're playing the Pistons, they're playing the.
00:04:16.182 --> 00:04:17.526
Pistons Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
00:04:17.526 --> 00:04:18.487
You don't know that?
00:04:18.569 --> 00:04:19.129
You don't know.
00:04:19.540 --> 00:04:21.007
He's going to come with it.
00:04:21.007 --> 00:04:23.547
Some miracle in Detroit.
00:04:23.547 --> 00:04:24.942
They need that Well.
00:04:24.942 --> 00:04:27.622
I just the NFL popped him ahead, but I'm not going there.
00:04:27.622 --> 00:04:28.846
No, no, no, no, no.
00:04:28.846 --> 00:04:29.689
So five, five, five.
00:04:29.689 --> 00:04:31.783
Can we just say one thing Will?
00:04:31.802 --> 00:04:32.904
you have to oh, oh, oh.
00:04:32.904 --> 00:04:34.528
Real-time update.
00:04:34.548 --> 00:04:34.949
That's it.
00:04:34.949 --> 00:04:35.810
That's all I'm going to say.
00:04:35.810 --> 00:04:38.624
Thank you, coach, and goodbye.
00:04:38.624 --> 00:04:39.927
Thank you for the dynasty Peace.
00:04:40.680 --> 00:04:41.983
We love real-time updates on the pod.
00:04:42.004 --> 00:04:43.329
Real-time here we go.
00:04:44.000 --> 00:04:46.245
Pistons 44, Bucks 38.
00:04:46.245 --> 00:04:46.968
So there you go.
00:04:46.968 --> 00:04:47.649
There's a shot.
00:04:47.649 --> 00:04:50.387
Maybe it does go to four games again.
00:04:51.483 --> 00:04:56.249
But, either way, your points well taken, no matter what happened last night us losing to Denver.
00:04:56.249 --> 00:05:01.567
We are 30, we are at 42 games, we are 32 and 10.
00:05:01.567 --> 00:05:08.228
Not just the best record in the East, best record in the league, and that was a huge test because guess what?
00:05:08.228 --> 00:05:10.067
They played the NBA champs.
00:05:10.067 --> 00:05:12.040
Yeah, we talk about Minnesota.
00:05:12.040 --> 00:05:13.839
I love my Minnesota Timberwolves.
00:05:13.839 --> 00:05:15.326
We talk about OKC.
00:05:15.326 --> 00:05:24.810
They're up and coming but, like we always talk about Denver, quietly doing their thing, I haven't watched a full Denver game until they played us last night.
00:05:24.810 --> 00:05:28.249
Oh, my goodness.
00:05:28.959 --> 00:05:32.214
The Joker is a scary, scary game.
00:05:32.214 --> 00:05:34.069
Joker and who are the best duo in the?
00:05:34.088 --> 00:05:34.209
NBA.
00:05:34.209 --> 00:05:36.487
Oh, Murray was June-style last night.
00:05:36.901 --> 00:05:38.627
That is the best duo in the NBA.
00:05:38.627 --> 00:05:40.846
They proved it during that game.
00:05:40.846 --> 00:05:47.833
Wow, you know duos and Jaylin and Jason the Jays.
00:05:47.833 --> 00:05:51.264
When they rise up they can be, but you know what.
00:05:52.000 --> 00:05:53.547
That's the problem with this game, and it's OK.
00:05:53.547 --> 00:05:54.963
Here's where I want to go with this.
00:05:54.963 --> 00:05:59.867
My takeaway is positive because remember no.
00:05:59.867 --> 00:06:01.791
Zing no ring.
00:06:01.791 --> 00:06:09.749
This is a new team with poor Zingus and if you start at the beginning of that game, zingus overtook that game.
00:06:09.749 --> 00:06:10.884
He was playing great.
00:06:10.884 --> 00:06:16.620
At the end of the game they forgot he existed and it was the Jays doing their thing.
00:06:16.761 --> 00:06:21.144
I wanted, I was guarding, I was guarding, I was like get Zingus on him, get.
00:06:21.185 --> 00:06:25.247
Zingus, this is what I'm saying, but you're having trouble with him, the Joker, no matter what.
00:06:25.528 --> 00:06:25.810
Why?
00:06:25.810 --> 00:06:27.021
What's the main?
00:06:27.021 --> 00:06:29.841
The main reason why we have trouble against him Down low, why?
00:06:31.401 --> 00:06:33.067
I think everybody has trouble against him.
00:06:33.067 --> 00:06:33.990
Down low Everybody.
00:06:34.100 --> 00:06:38.665
But the main reason, if I had to choose one out of the many for a shooter and passer and all that.
00:06:38.665 --> 00:06:40.843
Yes, yes, doesn't miss cake.
00:06:40.843 --> 00:06:43.704
He is a beefcake, he's a body.
00:06:43.704 --> 00:06:44.427
Yes, is it?
00:06:44.879 --> 00:06:48.687
Yeah, but but of course I mean, this is playing him well though.
00:06:49.100 --> 00:06:50.386
So this is the they all did.
00:06:50.386 --> 00:06:57.326
But when it comes down to Chet, it comes down to Victor, and it comes down to poor Zingus, and it comes down to Al, he is going to out body.
00:06:57.326 --> 00:07:03.845
You, this game is a physical man time game and that's why they want, and that's that's for me.
00:07:03.845 --> 00:07:06.867
Now, for Zingus is got to go outside, and he can.
00:07:06.867 --> 00:07:08.211
So can jokers can shoot to.
00:07:08.211 --> 00:07:10.086
But for Zingus got a better shot for sure.
00:07:10.086 --> 00:07:16.911
But he, you saw that there was one play, you remember he's like he got him in the stomach with a little secret bow, do you see that?
00:07:16.911 --> 00:07:18.605
And then he bent over Zingus.
00:07:18.605 --> 00:07:19.944
That's not why they bought, is?
00:07:19.985 --> 00:07:21.742
you, he'll body you up, he'll get.
00:07:21.742 --> 00:07:22.882
That's fine, he's going to.
00:07:22.882 --> 00:07:25.220
I mean, he's the best player in the league we can get hands down.
00:07:25.220 --> 00:07:27.107
You can't stop Joker, that's not.
00:07:27.166 --> 00:07:27.288
OK.
00:07:27.519 --> 00:07:32.209
Let Joker do his thing, let Murray even do exactly that's not why we lost.
00:07:32.692 --> 00:07:33.639
That is not why we lost.
00:07:33.639 --> 00:07:35.305
I'll tell you why we remain, the reason why.
00:07:35.305 --> 00:07:38.906
I will tell you why we lost, if you want to hear it, and then you can come in, let's go.
00:07:39.439 --> 00:07:46.814
There is one issue with this team right now, but, as I say this, I'm OK with it because, remember, this is a brand new team.
00:07:46.814 --> 00:07:48.399
Marcus is gone.
00:07:48.399 --> 00:07:51.363
Our guy Marcus Time Lord is gone.
00:07:51.363 --> 00:07:53.504
Poor Zingus, yeah, we're like no Zing, no ring.
00:07:53.504 --> 00:07:55.165
This is only 42 games.
00:07:55.165 --> 00:07:58.343
These guys are still growing, they're still learning.
00:07:58.740 --> 00:08:02.250
It's the journey to June and they haven't really been tested yet.
00:08:02.250 --> 00:08:17.439
They beat teams by 30 points on average for crying out loud, that was a great game, but when they're matched up against the best, this is why they're going to grow, because Denver those two teams they were playing on a different level dude, offense and defense different.
00:08:17.439 --> 00:08:19.305
But here's the issue.
00:08:20.480 --> 00:08:33.028
And it was the issue last year in the playoffs and it was why you were so frustrated, coach, late game execution period and a story, and they are going to start figuring out.
00:08:33.028 --> 00:08:41.849
You got to use Zingus and you got to use Derek White when it matters most, not Jason Tatum trying to take the winning shot every time.
00:08:41.849 --> 00:08:44.446
Yes, it's OK, though 100%.
00:08:44.625 --> 00:08:46.169
It's OK, this is how they learn.
00:08:46.169 --> 00:08:49.548
That doesn't overrule what I say, but I'm going to add something to that, please.
00:08:49.548 --> 00:08:51.583
That's 100% offensive and defensive.
00:08:51.583 --> 00:08:52.486
No, this is beautiful.
00:08:52.486 --> 00:08:53.288
You like that coach?
00:08:53.288 --> 00:08:54.551
This is your coach.
00:08:54.551 --> 00:08:57.044
Pete dude, now you got another nickname.
00:08:57.085 --> 00:08:58.971
No, coach, no coach here.
00:08:58.971 --> 00:09:00.855
Yeah, podcast Paul man.
00:09:00.855 --> 00:09:02.179
Yeah, you're the coach.
00:09:02.841 --> 00:09:04.967
Yeah, I know, but you can coach me, it's OK.
00:09:04.967 --> 00:09:12.613
So the late game execution at the end of the year, absolutely offensively and defensively, for sure.
00:09:12.613 --> 00:09:15.788
Now, he had that layup and he bobbled it.
00:09:15.788 --> 00:09:17.342
It was, it wasn't forced.
00:09:17.342 --> 00:09:18.846
You saw the bobble, he bobbled.
00:09:18.846 --> 00:09:19.568
He's only humans.
00:09:19.568 --> 00:09:20.591
And he missed the layup.
00:09:20.591 --> 00:09:22.547
Put a different story after that.
00:09:22.879 --> 00:09:24.967
And then all the greats take the last shot.
00:09:24.967 --> 00:09:27.126
So he had the OK to get two shots shot too.
00:09:27.126 --> 00:09:29.046
So he's only human.
00:09:29.046 --> 00:09:30.806
Jordan's done it a million times.
00:09:30.806 --> 00:09:33.981
They'll be doing it a miss on a miss, so, but what's?
00:09:33.981 --> 00:09:36.947
It would always stay statistically that.
00:09:36.947 --> 00:09:38.750
Now I'm going to bring my statistics in.
00:09:38.750 --> 00:09:39.893
What was it?
00:09:39.893 --> 00:09:41.542
This, this guess what?
00:09:41.542 --> 00:09:51.750
The stat is that I, that is, turnovers and rebounds, thank you, you know those are my favorite stats, but not turnovers this game, because how many do they have the Jays had zero turnovers.
00:09:52.091 --> 00:09:52.835
It was a miracle.
00:09:53.240 --> 00:09:55.341
That's all I care about, paul.
00:09:55.341 --> 00:09:56.303
This is no.
00:09:56.303 --> 00:09:57.808
This is huge for me.
00:09:57.808 --> 00:09:59.325
So forget about the win.
00:09:59.325 --> 00:10:02.769
That's a big W for me to see.
00:10:02.769 --> 00:10:05.028
There's never seen this in Celtics history.
00:10:05.028 --> 00:10:07.467
I don't think in the last seven years with the Jays.
00:10:07.467 --> 00:10:11.769
The Jays to did who turnovers, that's it.
00:10:11.769 --> 00:10:13.485
But what was it?
00:10:13.485 --> 00:10:13.989
What was it?
00:10:13.989 --> 00:10:14.793
Where did we get out?
00:10:14.793 --> 00:10:22.490
Okay, banana shop now face below, let's wait a second and it was 47 total rebounds to R38.
00:10:22.490 --> 00:10:25.749
They had 10 offensive rebounds, we had 12.
00:10:25.749 --> 00:10:27.405
We beat them on the O boards.
00:10:27.726 --> 00:10:34.710
Yes, we did, but guess what we lost this is how we lost the game 37 defensive rebounds to R26.
00:10:34.710 --> 00:10:38.881
11 more rebounds, and that matters Everything.
00:10:38.881 --> 00:10:40.086
All the other numbers are whatever.
00:10:40.086 --> 00:10:46.604
They shot better than us 51, almost 52%, and there's like it's all the same stuff the three free throws.
00:10:46.604 --> 00:10:49.988
They missed a few, but that's it, dudes, and dudes, oh yeah.
00:10:51.743 --> 00:10:54.129
And folks in Kaden drop 23 on Friday.
00:10:54.129 --> 00:10:55.412
Kaden, let's go.
00:10:55.412 --> 00:10:58.347
But I always say what are you floating for?
00:10:58.347 --> 00:11:00.846
Every time a shot goes up, you crash.
00:11:00.846 --> 00:11:03.447
You have to learn, like Rodman, to be the worm.
00:11:03.447 --> 00:11:08.802
You gotta learn how to get in there and crash Like Derek does when he's a little guy compared to these big guys.
00:11:08.802 --> 00:11:11.482
Nuff said so you're right, add it to that.
00:11:11.482 --> 00:11:12.044
Look at this last one.
00:11:12.085 --> 00:11:13.207
You hear Derek white out to the game.
00:11:13.207 --> 00:11:14.250
He kissed me on the head.
00:11:14.250 --> 00:11:17.359
It felt so good, so that's so good Everybody can do it.
00:11:17.359 --> 00:11:17.659
It's no joke.
00:11:18.750 --> 00:11:19.740
I just go on to go on online.
00:11:19.740 --> 00:11:21.350
I found team stats.
00:11:21.350 --> 00:11:23.323
You know you go to search engine bang Now player stats.
00:11:23.323 --> 00:11:26.778
You know what the player stats were fantastic.
00:11:26.778 --> 00:11:28.220
They're fantastic all around.
00:11:28.220 --> 00:11:31.350
We have the best team and know what else we have.
00:11:31.350 --> 00:11:32.076
Well, that's the key.
00:11:32.116 --> 00:11:40.100
That's the key Like we started this saying how great the Joker in Marriar and absolutely they were dogs last night.
00:11:40.100 --> 00:11:41.340
But that's just two players.
00:11:41.340 --> 00:11:42.899
Two of their players scored a goal.
00:11:42.899 --> 00:11:43.923
That's just two players.
00:11:43.923 --> 00:11:48.447
Two of their players scored 65 of those points of the 102 points last night.
00:11:48.841 --> 00:11:52.823
We're not built that way, as much as we talk about the J's, they scored 69 points.
00:11:52.823 --> 00:11:54.067
The Joker in Marriar bro.
00:13:25.930 --> 00:13:38.197
I would much rather the J score a little bit less and aren't the top two and we have everybody else in those 20s, have, zingas have, and I think they did, I think Zingas had in the 20s last night, right.
00:13:38.197 --> 00:13:41.798
Zingas was 21 points two assists eight rebounds.
00:13:41.798 --> 00:13:42.521
You know what, though?
00:13:42.521 --> 00:13:44.216
He needed to be more the man last night.
00:13:44.216 --> 00:13:45.814
He needed like 30, 35 points.
00:13:45.814 --> 00:13:48.060
If everybody else says the same, I like that.
00:13:48.120 --> 00:13:50.897
I like that, but I don't care, because it was D.
00:13:50.897 --> 00:13:51.879
White had 24.
00:13:51.879 --> 00:13:54.358
He was fire with five assists.
00:13:54.629 --> 00:14:04.836
But then, dude, they didn't score in the last four minutes of the game except, like, from free throws, exactly when it goes back to the meat of what you're saying and I'm with you is the execution.
00:14:05.090 --> 00:14:05.933
Yes, that's right.
00:14:05.933 --> 00:14:07.355
Jason had 22.
00:14:07.355 --> 00:14:08.855
Jaylin had 13.
00:14:08.855 --> 00:14:10.495
We could have got more from him for some juice.
00:14:10.495 --> 00:14:17.897
Prisha, come off the bench, but this is the thing To see them go toe to toe with the champs and to lose only by a buck.
00:14:17.897 --> 00:14:19.156
We can beat them all days.
00:14:19.409 --> 00:14:20.394
We can even play great.
00:14:21.072 --> 00:14:26.238
Here's the biggest hopper in all sports and life and everything in business.
00:14:26.238 --> 00:14:31.815
It's all chemistry and energy and who brings it?
00:14:31.815 --> 00:14:37.019
I hope you saw this, because I was laughing when, luke, they gave Luke the post game interview.
00:14:37.590 --> 00:14:38.353
Yeah, I saw that.
00:14:39.409 --> 00:14:40.595
We can be a rap group.
00:14:40.595 --> 00:14:47.479
He's one of my favorite players, if not my favorite, because it's his comedic value and what he brings.
00:14:47.529 --> 00:14:48.594
He's playing better too.
00:14:48.694 --> 00:14:50.494
They're smiling, they're having fun.
00:14:50.494 --> 00:14:53.719
They have the best chemistry in the league.
00:14:55.332 --> 00:14:56.716
Don't forget about positive P.
00:14:57.937 --> 00:14:58.560
Positive P.
00:14:58.720 --> 00:14:59.321
I think it would come.
00:14:59.321 --> 00:15:00.322
Richard, he's playing great.
00:15:00.932 --> 00:15:01.595
Yeah, new nickname.
00:15:01.595 --> 00:15:03.075
Hey, I've hit him up.
00:15:03.075 --> 00:15:06.858
He's liked one of my stores on Instagram P.
00:15:06.858 --> 00:15:08.000
I hope you listen to him.
00:15:08.040 --> 00:15:09.023
He's on the show, let's go.
00:15:09.023 --> 00:15:10.013
I sent him a message P.
00:15:10.750 --> 00:15:12.973
So I don't want to hound the guys Everybody and everybody.
00:15:12.973 --> 00:15:16.798
Everything's coming out these guys, but one day we'll get somebody on the show.
00:15:16.850 --> 00:15:22.377
We'll talk about that later too, Remember he got the big contract 30 million, but he deserves it.
00:15:22.377 --> 00:15:23.639
He got his 30 million.
00:15:23.639 --> 00:15:26.736
Sorry, not the big contract 30 million dollars is incredible yeah.
00:15:26.736 --> 00:15:32.021
But he started the season a little slow, we're all like oh, exactly, but not anymore.
00:15:32.341 --> 00:15:34.254
No, he's been a glue to that bench.
00:15:34.696 --> 00:15:35.298
That's it, man.
00:15:35.298 --> 00:15:53.615
Here's the other thing that's great about our team right now where I'm excited and this has never been the case since we've had Jason Tatum, usually until this year when Jason Tatum leaves the court and goes on the bench, it's not like the plus minus they talk about, it's not good Like we don't do well when he's not in the game.
00:15:53.615 --> 00:16:02.476
Not the case this year, and that has a lot to do with Peyton Pritchard when he's in there in the bench, the bench puts up she's dropped some 20 point games this year.
00:16:02.617 --> 00:16:03.980
Yeah, so yeah, yeah.
00:16:04.290 --> 00:16:06.276
We're playing well without Tatum being in there.
00:16:06.878 --> 00:16:07.540
Second unit.
00:16:07.649 --> 00:16:09.548
By the way, what happened with that Luke did?
00:16:09.588 --> 00:16:10.894
good Luke Hadagun's a couple good plays.
00:16:11.409 --> 00:16:11.892
Did you see that?
00:16:11.892 --> 00:16:13.935
Dunk Jason Tatum dunk.
00:16:13.935 --> 00:16:17.541
He went full court, slams it gardens going crazy.
00:16:17.541 --> 00:16:18.415
Then they give him a tech.
00:16:18.415 --> 00:16:19.894
What's that all about?
00:16:20.210 --> 00:16:22.575
Boom, we're going right into it.
00:16:22.575 --> 00:16:23.397
Now what?
00:16:23.498 --> 00:16:23.759
is this.
00:16:26.075 --> 00:16:27.317
It's the fouls.
00:16:27.317 --> 00:16:29.413
The technicals Welcome.
00:16:29.413 --> 00:16:31.134
People Cue the music.
00:16:31.134 --> 00:16:34.638
It's the foul quiz.
00:16:34.638 --> 00:16:38.697
Oh Boom, I'm flipping the negative into a positive.
00:16:38.850 --> 00:16:41.694
What a surprise today, big surprise.
00:16:42.490 --> 00:16:47.315
You nailed it Perfect segue Mid -season the controversy to.
00:16:47.315 --> 00:16:49.711
People are losing their minds over the fouls.
00:16:49.711 --> 00:16:51.598
This year, last year it rolled into this year.
00:16:51.778 --> 00:16:53.032
So guess what the fouls?
00:16:53.032 --> 00:16:53.815
The coaches.
00:16:54.769 --> 00:16:55.474
We're flipping it.
00:16:55.474 --> 00:16:57.216
We're going to flip it into a positive.
00:16:57.216 --> 00:16:58.113
Are you ready?
00:16:59.031 --> 00:16:59.714
Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
00:16:59.714 --> 00:17:01.274
It's called the white weight, Just so I can.
00:17:01.274 --> 00:17:04.893
It's the J2M's foul quiz History stats.
00:17:04.893 --> 00:17:07.384
You name it, we're flipping it.
00:17:07.384 --> 00:17:10.944
We're having fun with it because it's too much bad.
00:17:10.964 --> 00:17:11.909
juice you out there, let's do it.
00:17:13.175 --> 00:17:14.100
It's that everybody's like oh my god.
00:17:14.142 --> 00:17:15.226
Everybody's losing their mind.
00:17:15.226 --> 00:17:15.588
So guess what?
00:17:15.588 --> 00:17:16.776
I'm bracing it all.
00:17:16.776 --> 00:17:18.116
It's all part of the game.
00:17:18.116 --> 00:17:19.224
I'm ready for this.
00:17:19.224 --> 00:17:21.298
You control the.
00:17:21.298 --> 00:17:26.966
We have no control over this, so we might as well have fun with it.
00:17:26.966 --> 00:17:27.207
Let's do it.
00:17:27.207 --> 00:17:27.670
Let's go here we go.
00:17:27.951 --> 00:17:29.377
Cue the bongos.
00:17:29.377 --> 00:17:31.649
Whatever you want to do podcast ball, cue them.

00:17:34.226 --> 00:17:36.999
Here we go.
00:17:36.999 --> 00:17:38.734
The foul quiz.
00:17:38.734 --> 00:17:42.481
We'll start with the act.
00:17:42.481 --> 00:17:45.736
You know we'll start with some stats to get a little warm into it.
00:17:45.736 --> 00:17:51.345
But who has the most fouls personal fouls of all time?
00:17:51.345 --> 00:17:56.014
Who holds the record Number one?
00:17:56.014 --> 00:17:56.476
Who could guess?
00:17:56.476 --> 00:17:57.152
I know it's like.
00:17:57.152 --> 00:17:59.038
I wish I could give you some like.
00:18:00.653 --> 00:18:07.425
What's the most personal Like in the history of the game NBA career leaders in personal fouls, who has the most?
00:18:07.425 --> 00:18:10.596
Oh, this is easy Number one Rashid.
00:18:10.596 --> 00:18:10.956
Wallace.
00:18:11.811 --> 00:18:12.877
Oh no, that was text.
00:18:12.877 --> 00:18:13.531
That was text.
00:18:13.531 --> 00:18:14.517
We're going to go into that.
00:18:15.735 --> 00:18:18.278
Oh, I'm jumping, we're going to this is personal fouls.
00:18:18.329 --> 00:18:21.036
This is the foul, all right, all right, all right.
00:18:21.036 --> 00:18:23.456
So we're going personal right now.
00:18:23.456 --> 00:18:27.716
This is the crazy thing so many different fouls and flagrant one, and two, all right.
00:18:27.763 --> 00:18:32.548
Well, I'm going to go with, like longevity right, the person who's played the longest I can give you a four.
00:18:32.548 --> 00:18:33.532
Ron James.
00:18:34.610 --> 00:18:36.442
No, he's not even on the top 20.
00:18:36.481 --> 00:18:38.577
Wow, I can give you Karim Al-Jabbar.
00:18:39.264 --> 00:18:42.659
Holy, ding, ding, ding, ding ding ding ding, ding, ding ding.
00:18:42.679 --> 00:18:47.404
Game over, I'm out of here, I'm done, but leave, leave.
00:18:47.464 --> 00:18:48.288
Podcast.
00:18:48.307 --> 00:18:50.329
I'm hitting the right, the bottom right red button.
00:18:50.329 --> 00:18:52.475
Leave me Guess how many.
00:18:52.475 --> 00:18:54.040
Number one Paul just named.
00:18:54.040 --> 00:18:55.194
I wouldn't have ever guessed that.
00:18:55.194 --> 00:18:56.674
Number one of all time.
00:18:56.674 --> 00:18:57.356
That's wicked good.
00:18:57.356 --> 00:18:58.713
You're great at these quizzes.
00:18:58.713 --> 00:19:06.862
Karim Abdul-Jabbar, I was just telling you had 4,657 personal fouls.
00:19:06.862 --> 00:19:08.194
Would you like to try for two?
00:19:08.194 --> 00:19:13.211
Well, do this at the top for four, because the fourth one is special Green law.
00:19:14.769 --> 00:19:15.312
Number two.
00:19:16.349 --> 00:19:17.795
If you know, guys, I'll know what the green law is.
00:19:17.795 --> 00:19:19.593
It's the six degrees of separation.
00:19:19.593 --> 00:19:25.956
Like Kevin Bacon, it's the green law Number two is Jerry West.
00:19:25.956 --> 00:19:28.574
Wrong, it's not even the top 20.
00:19:30.290 --> 00:19:31.234
Oscar Robertson.
00:19:32.150 --> 00:19:35.333
Oh boy, you, just Now, you, I shouldn't have gave you that compliment.
00:19:35.333 --> 00:19:41.961
Three, okay, hold on, here we go, you're done, you're out, it's over One more.
00:19:42.709 --> 00:19:46.349
Three strikes, so number two, that's all that matters.
00:19:46.389 --> 00:19:47.915
That was that you won the quiz.
00:19:47.915 --> 00:19:54.250
So number two is Karim Malone, right behind Karim Artis Gilmore.
00:19:54.250 --> 00:19:55.734
Am I an artist, old school?
00:19:55.754 --> 00:19:55.875
player.
00:19:55.875 --> 00:20:01.519
Well, yeah, I'm an artist Number three and number four, ours truly, are missed double zero.
00:20:02.680 --> 00:20:04.694
The chief, the top repairer.
00:20:05.272 --> 00:20:06.967
The top repairer for me.
00:20:07.290 --> 00:20:08.381
We'll leave it at that.
00:20:08.381 --> 00:20:09.230
We'll leave it at that.
00:20:09.230 --> 00:20:10.293
We're gonna cap it at Peyton.
00:20:10.293 --> 00:20:13.738
That's the personal fouls quiz.
00:20:14.010 --> 00:20:18.293
I should have known after Karim that it was all gonna be big men and forwards and I went guards.
00:20:18.293 --> 00:20:19.216
What was I thinking?
00:20:19.610 --> 00:20:20.783
So now we get fun.
00:20:20.783 --> 00:20:24.859
Now we just what you said who has the most NBA technical fouls?
00:20:25.430 --> 00:20:26.775
in the last 50 years.
00:20:26.775 --> 00:20:30.159
Number one let's go number five, let's go number.
00:20:30.199 --> 00:20:33.456
Oh, let's go number, let's go to number five, five like five, four, three, two, one.
00:20:33.456 --> 00:20:34.940
Who is number five?
00:20:34.940 --> 00:20:39.219
There's five, four, three, two Number five most techs of all time.
00:20:39.669 --> 00:20:47.097
Yeah, I'm gonna go with let's think about this the X-Man, xavier McDaniel.
00:20:47.696 --> 00:20:48.769
Oh, throwing it out there.
00:20:48.769 --> 00:20:49.712
The X Celtic.
00:20:49.712 --> 00:20:50.817
This is great.
00:20:50.817 --> 00:20:52.887
I always think about him when he was talking.
00:20:53.129 --> 00:20:54.375
He'll be playing like 20 years.
00:20:55.150 --> 00:20:56.516
Larry talking trash to him.
00:20:56.516 --> 00:20:59.678
His story is the best when you hear the Larry legend stories.
00:20:59.678 --> 00:21:05.414
Dennis Rodman at number five All right With 212.
00:21:05.414 --> 00:21:07.995
Okay, the Mr Rebound himself.
00:21:07.995 --> 00:21:11.098
He was one of the best hustle players in the NBA history.
00:21:11.098 --> 00:21:12.294
He died for loose balls.
00:21:12.690 --> 00:21:13.774
He might have a loss.
00:21:13.774 --> 00:21:15.173
This might be a team.
00:21:15.173 --> 00:21:17.055
This might be a bad boy team.
00:21:17.590 --> 00:21:20.313
Yeah buddy, that's what I'm getting.
00:21:20.313 --> 00:21:23.117
You're getting to where I'm going with this stuff, man.
00:21:23.209 --> 00:21:25.336
So number four has got to be Bill Lambert.
00:21:25.336 --> 00:21:27.039
What?
00:21:27.201 --> 00:21:27.561
What.
00:21:27.709 --> 00:21:28.432
What?
00:21:28.432 --> 00:21:31.693
That's one strike, you have two more strikes, so always three strikes with coach.
00:21:31.693 --> 00:21:34.696
So number four.
00:21:34.696 --> 00:21:37.157
You can try again if you want, I guess.
00:21:37.209 --> 00:21:37.913
John Sally.
00:21:38.855 --> 00:21:39.216
What.
00:21:39.357 --> 00:21:41.933
What, what Enough for the bad boys.
00:21:41.933 --> 00:21:44.398
Yeah, I tricked you.
00:21:44.398 --> 00:21:47.719
Well, I know that number two is Dramond Green.
00:21:48.329 --> 00:21:48.851
There's no.
00:21:48.851 --> 00:21:50.917
No, what Boom?
00:21:50.917 --> 00:21:51.980
That's three in a row.
00:21:51.980 --> 00:21:52.914
You struck out again.
00:21:52.914 --> 00:21:54.042
That's OK, you got to hear.
00:21:54.062 --> 00:21:56.194
You get to get to know how Well I know who number one is.
00:21:56.194 --> 00:21:57.353
I just said it three times.
00:21:57.394 --> 00:22:00.596
Where she'd wall us Number one we're going to get to.
00:22:00.596 --> 00:22:03.092
I'm going to number four now, gary Payton.
00:22:04.276 --> 00:22:04.990
Oh, right Miss.
00:22:05.150 --> 00:22:07.217
All Time Great Defender, you know.
00:22:07.217 --> 00:22:11.256
Yeah, in his style right 17 year MBA career.
00:22:11.256 --> 00:22:12.592
We love the glove.
00:22:12.592 --> 00:22:15.936
Yeah, all right, so he went from the worm to the glove.
00:22:15.936 --> 00:22:18.916
Great nicknames, great players.
00:22:18.916 --> 00:22:22.293
Number three you already said his name Rashid Wallace.
00:22:22.809 --> 00:22:23.637
He's great.
00:22:23.940 --> 00:22:26.074
He said Rashid didn't you oh, I thought he was number one.
00:22:26.074 --> 00:22:28.528
No, he's number three with 317.
00:22:28.869 --> 00:22:29.875
Oh, Traymon's number one.
00:22:30.529 --> 00:22:32.076
So Dennis had 212.
00:22:32.076 --> 00:22:33.780
He's not on the list 212.
00:22:33.780 --> 00:22:35.928
Gary with 250.
00:22:35.928 --> 00:22:37.656
Rashid with 317.
00:22:37.656 --> 00:22:40.351
We know all about Shied man.
00:22:40.351 --> 00:22:41.154
I loved him.
00:22:41.154 --> 00:22:44.295
He was aggressive, he was a great player.
00:22:44.295 --> 00:22:46.916
Yeah, he was fiery, fiery passion.
00:22:46.916 --> 00:22:50.676
That's what it says NBA champion, you know.
00:22:50.676 --> 00:22:53.496
So next Number two.
00:22:53.496 --> 00:22:59.956
Number two Give a shot, bill Lambier, I'll let you come back at that Wra-wra-wra.
00:22:59.976 --> 00:23:01.601
No, no, no, no, that didn't count, I already said it.
00:23:02.049 --> 00:23:03.675
Yeah, come on, let's go.
00:23:03.675 --> 00:23:04.017
Where's your T?
00:23:04.017 --> 00:23:05.253
Are you having a T-Cosy P?
00:23:05.253 --> 00:23:06.871
Do you have some?
00:23:06.911 --> 00:23:07.554
caffeine.
00:23:07.554 --> 00:23:11.250
Hold on, hold on man.
00:23:11.250 --> 00:23:12.596
I thought Rashid was number one.
00:23:12.596 --> 00:23:13.934
Now he was known for his texts.
00:23:15.189 --> 00:23:27.798
Two more left Big boys, old school, 90s, 80s and 90s and yeah, shaq on the list 80s and 90s, kakeel O'Neal 80s into 90s for one and one's 90.
00:23:27.798 --> 00:23:29.456
Yeah, they're both around 90s.
00:23:29.730 --> 00:23:30.410
Michael Jordan.
00:23:31.653 --> 00:23:33.216
Sorry, no, but that's cool.
00:23:33.216 --> 00:23:33.677
I like that.
00:23:33.677 --> 00:23:34.759
Guess You're done, yeah.
00:23:34.940 --> 00:23:36.202
Yeah, I'm, hollow Sorry.
00:23:36.589 --> 00:23:37.251
That's OK.
00:23:37.251 --> 00:23:39.438
The folks still love you, we still love you.
00:23:39.730 --> 00:23:40.534
I got Kareem in the end.
00:23:40.534 --> 00:23:41.423
You're still batting.
00:23:41.809 --> 00:23:45.870
You're batting high buddy, you're batting average, All right.
00:23:45.870 --> 00:23:50.098
So number two is Mr Sir Charles Barkley.
00:23:50.098 --> 00:23:56.666
Oh Barkley, remember him With his fiery stuff 329.
00:23:56.666 --> 00:23:59.693
329 texts, mr TV analyst.
00:23:59.693 --> 00:24:01.318
Now Him and Shaq.
00:24:01.318 --> 00:24:05.993
Round mound of rebounds, yeah there, it is Number one player.
00:24:05.993 --> 00:24:09.653
Yeah, he's an NBA record for averaging the most techno fowls per game.
00:24:09.653 --> 00:24:09.974
Blah blah.
00:24:09.974 --> 00:24:13.718
But like you said, though, like on here it says the wrong TNT.
00:24:14.549 --> 00:24:15.795
It's one of the bad boys in NBA.
00:24:15.889 --> 00:24:18.919
It says on here altercations, heckler, blah blah, you know.
00:24:18.919 --> 00:24:33.440
And number one, Mr Pick and Roll with himself, with Stockton and oh, malone, again Carl Malone, that was just taking all of his personal antics.
00:24:33.440 --> 00:24:36.697
Number one 332.
00:24:36.697 --> 00:24:37.605
Wow.
00:24:37.725 --> 00:24:38.128
That was.
00:24:38.128 --> 00:24:39.415
I didn't think that either.
00:24:39.415 --> 00:24:40.333
He was annoying.
00:24:41.049 --> 00:24:46.818
Yep, he was a physical player and he had a nasty streak and sharp elbows.
00:24:46.818 --> 00:24:50.658
But there's a whole reason why I did this too, because I miss it.
00:24:50.658 --> 00:24:55.060
Oh, do I miss the physicality of the NBA in the less flag.
00:24:55.060 --> 00:25:00.330
Do you know what a flag would you like to tell the kids and folks and people out there what a flagrant one and two is Like?
00:25:00.330 --> 00:25:01.033
Do they know?
00:25:01.649 --> 00:25:02.372
Would you know.
00:25:02.372 --> 00:25:07.943
A flagrant one would be If you have a clear path to the bat.
00:25:07.943 --> 00:25:08.788
That's different.
00:25:08.788 --> 00:25:10.032
That's a clear path for foul.
00:25:10.032 --> 00:25:15.359
Never mind, that's a separate thing, it's a Flagrant one would be like you touch someone's arm a little too hard.
00:25:16.430 --> 00:25:17.815
I was giving all you would be.
00:25:18.389 --> 00:25:19.634
You touch it really hard.
00:25:20.869 --> 00:25:22.750
They're just being funny with it, but it's true it's.
00:25:22.750 --> 00:25:23.714
It's ridiculous.
00:25:23.714 --> 00:25:28.955
The foul is not a legitimate attempt to directly play the ball within the spirit and turn of the rules.
00:25:28.955 --> 00:25:29.657
Blah, blah, blah.
00:25:29.657 --> 00:25:31.175
The thing is about the flagrant one.
00:25:31.175 --> 00:25:34.858
It's unnecessary contact committed by player against an opponent.
00:25:34.858 --> 00:25:40.557
Flagrant foul, penitentiary to unnecessary excessive contact committed by player against an opponent.
00:25:40.557 --> 00:25:43.475
It's like come on, man, we only want man.
00:25:43.475 --> 00:25:44.594
It's like.
00:25:44.655 --> 00:25:47.875
it's like oh, dude, but what about the one that last night?
00:25:48.035 --> 00:25:49.680
with, like I said, I'm embracing it.
00:25:50.289 --> 00:25:52.217
What about that one, the hanging on the rim thing?
00:25:52.217 --> 00:25:53.213
That, that's a new one.
00:25:53.213 --> 00:25:55.395
They, they, that's ridiculous.
00:25:56.189 --> 00:25:57.254
That was ridiculous.
00:25:57.254 --> 00:25:59.697
It's like I love the taunted.
00:25:59.697 --> 00:26:04.439
Do you remember when Sean Kemp dunked on everybody and he would go?
00:26:04.439 --> 00:26:06.042
He was fun.
00:26:06.042 --> 00:26:07.895
He would go like this, into the stands, into the.
00:26:07.895 --> 00:26:11.759
He go into a low athletic stance and did the guns on time onto the duty, just dunked on.
00:26:12.971 --> 00:26:15.852
I would also argue it affects home court.
00:26:15.852 --> 00:26:17.894
Like that was a momentum killer.
00:26:17.894 --> 00:26:20.299
The garden was going crazy.
00:26:20.440 --> 00:26:21.403
That's the main thing.
00:26:21.403 --> 00:26:25.434
I'm talking to these, these, these super geeks when it comes to the sports and stuff.
00:26:25.434 --> 00:26:27.800
It the momentum shift.
00:26:27.800 --> 00:26:29.304
It's changed the flow of the game.
00:26:29.304 --> 00:26:34.866
It's affecting the game Right like I've like gotten through it recently where I'm like I'm not.
00:26:35.876 --> 00:26:36.560
Don't get me wrong.
00:26:36.560 --> 00:26:39.674
I feel like Tatum did it, really showed them up and was doing something.
00:26:40.457 --> 00:26:41.400
I kind of do that.
00:26:41.540 --> 00:26:41.661
It's.
00:26:41.821 --> 00:26:47.879
The whole idea is to do a second, to bring down the tenor of the game, like if it's getting real chippy, I get it.
00:26:47.879 --> 00:26:49.782
Like if you don't call somebody.
00:26:49.884 --> 00:26:52.628
You should be able to give them a facial sun.
00:26:52.628 --> 00:26:54.838
This is what it is, man.
00:26:54.838 --> 00:26:57.063
They have to bring some of that street flavor back.
00:26:57.484 --> 00:26:59.028
Let it be the skim.
00:27:00.315 --> 00:27:00.937
You know, dude.
00:27:00.937 --> 00:27:05.230
Remember, kevin, do the YouTube video to the guns of this one guy.
00:27:05.290 --> 00:27:08.298
Yeah, guys on the ground, it's like you got post on.
00:27:08.639 --> 00:27:09.380
You got post rise.
00:27:09.380 --> 00:27:10.644
It is what it is.
00:27:10.644 --> 00:27:16.020
Oh, by the way, lebron still post rising people at 39 unbelievable.
00:27:17.436 --> 00:27:18.740
So let it out, we, let it out, we.
00:27:18.740 --> 00:27:20.485
This is therapy two for the brothers.
00:27:20.485 --> 00:27:21.147
Good quiz man.
00:27:21.147 --> 00:27:21.649
I'm out.
00:27:21.649 --> 00:27:23.394
I guess I like that quiz.
00:27:23.394 --> 00:27:24.619
I was a good one.
00:27:24.921 --> 00:27:27.875
Yeah, there you go, little flag, just to flip and have fun with it.
00:27:27.994 --> 00:27:30.561
I need just a little foul and flagrant.
00:27:30.561 --> 00:27:32.466
Yeah little two M's quiz.
00:27:33.175 --> 00:27:33.737
It's just a little.
00:27:33.737 --> 00:27:34.880
Just, there's just a firm.
00:27:34.900 --> 00:27:48.443
Throw some fun into it, because it is a problem, you know so hey but before we move on to the rest of the teams that are Looking really good in the midseason because we have a few other people besides Denver and Boston we're gonna talk about why don't we hit on Caden?
00:27:48.443 --> 00:27:49.487
You just mentioned his name.
00:27:49.487 --> 00:27:51.193
Yeah, the update man.
00:27:51.193 --> 00:27:53.000
Right, we've been waiting for our Caden update.
00:27:53.621 --> 00:27:59.266

I go to YouTube.

I.
00:30:50.615 --> 00:30:50.836
Has a.
00:30:50.836 --> 00:30:53.224
The Granville basketball has YouTube channel.
00:30:54.555 --> 00:30:54.916
Do.
00:30:54.916 --> 00:31:05.834
Here's a thought is we can actually put that link in the show note for those people that are listening boy Don't want to actually watch, and because we're talking about it, they're hearing about it.
00:31:06.074 --> 00:31:06.796
They want to see it.
00:31:06.796 --> 00:31:09.320
When Caden's journey do, this is his journey.
00:31:09.320 --> 00:31:11.264
In Granville's journey they were squad.
00:31:11.264 --> 00:31:20.358
You guys can win it all for sure yeah and maybe maybe let Coach know offline.
00:31:20.679 --> 00:31:25.954
Once we're done like what that app is, we can put that in there too, but we'll definitely put a link again in the show.
00:31:26.174 --> 00:31:31.558
He's so savvy with everything he's gonna send it to me like awesome the phone he's teaches me.
00:31:31.558 --> 00:31:32.746
Well, what else?
00:31:32.786 --> 00:31:40.500
Caden talked to us man so Really, at the beginning of the season it was kind of a slow start.
00:31:40.500 --> 00:31:45.615
I mean I wasn't playing terrible, but I mean I wasn't playing how I know I could play.
00:31:45.615 --> 00:31:52.094
I mean, first game I had eight points, I didn't make any threes and that was kind of getting to me.
00:31:52.094 --> 00:31:58.380
I was like you know, I really I'm in the gym all the time shooting and my shots aren't falling.
00:31:58.380 --> 00:32:00.847
That's really how it was for like the next few games.
00:32:00.847 --> 00:32:11.887
But I mean I Know when I'm not score and I can do other things like play hard, rebound Assists, do like all the little things to just help us win.
00:32:11.887 --> 00:32:14.696
And that's what I was doing for for a few games and we were winning.
00:32:14.696 --> 00:32:17.564
So you know I wasn't stressing about my offense.
00:32:17.564 --> 00:32:18.586
I know it'll come.
00:32:18.586 --> 00:32:22.062
Had conversations with Murph and my coaches at school.
00:32:22.062 --> 00:32:26.334
They're like, don't worry about it, all fall, just keep doing what you're doing and we'll be good.
00:32:27.456 --> 00:32:28.438
And it did see.
00:32:28.438 --> 00:32:31.684
Perseverance, dude, it's, it's proved.
00:32:31.684 --> 00:32:33.948
You should have more faith now in your journey.
00:32:33.948 --> 00:32:45.126
Right, and the stuff we were sending you, like I was sending you, like these guys and the highest level going through their droughts or going through they're, they're those spells and right, even Steph and everybody right.
00:32:45.735 --> 00:33:03.093
Yeah, exactly, and I kind of really took it until, like alright, it said I'm gonna draw right now, so there's nothing to stress about, just keep doing you, just keep playing hard, carefree, and you'll be fine, like I tell myself every game before every game to play hard, smile and just have fun.
00:33:03.093 --> 00:33:04.462
Yeah, I do.
00:33:04.483 --> 00:33:11.934
Today says basketball, oh, doesn't matter though, from Kate and a 17 year old.
00:33:11.934 --> 00:33:15.474
You know, let's go, young man, dropping this awesome man.
00:33:16.214 --> 00:33:18.112
So you went on a six game win streak.
00:33:18.112 --> 00:33:21.132
You said you lost one and you won the last one.
00:33:21.132 --> 00:33:21.474
What's next?
00:33:21.474 --> 00:33:23.807
You have?
00:33:23.807 --> 00:33:27.906
How many more games you have before you get into the Like?
00:33:27.906 --> 00:33:31.784
These are a playoffs, I'm assuming, coming up Uh this.
00:33:31.844 --> 00:33:36.602
I think this was our 12th game, so we have Uh 10 more.
00:33:36.602 --> 00:33:37.666
Yeah, they have a lot of games.
00:33:37.666 --> 00:33:38.528
They played 22.
00:33:38.528 --> 00:33:39.792
Awesome, wow, it's not like a 12 game season.
00:33:39.812 --> 00:33:40.675
Yeah, they're just Warming.
00:33:40.675 --> 00:33:43.062
Like I said, they're not done, they're not ready to go to the championship.
00:33:43.082 --> 00:33:43.804
Yet I'm not, I'm just.
00:33:43.804 --> 00:33:44.567
What I'm saying is just the way.
00:33:48.703 --> 00:33:49.869
It is, it's like I'm not, I'm not.
00:33:49.869 --> 00:33:52.824
It's not easy to predict you either, jolly, you don't.
00:33:52.824 --> 00:33:54.049
You grow like you said, paul.
00:33:54.049 --> 00:33:55.094
You grow it within that season, each game.
00:33:55.094 --> 00:33:58.326
You grow like they're growing.
00:33:58.326 --> 00:33:59.870
You right, kate, and you guys are.
00:33:59.870 --> 00:34:00.855
You are personally in your team.
00:34:01.937 --> 00:34:12.367
Yeah, I mean we, we still got some things to work on, but Absolutely always I want it always and forever, but sounds familiar.
00:34:12.648 --> 00:34:14.673
This is their first year playing together.
00:34:14.673 --> 00:34:18.670
Kate's brand new for this team and we have there's only three returning players too.
00:34:18.711 --> 00:34:20.259
So it's yeah.
00:34:20.259 --> 00:34:23.315
So it's kind of, I want to say, started from the bottom, but kind of near.
00:34:23.315 --> 00:34:25.295
Yeah, I know it is dude, a learning curve.
00:34:26.500 --> 00:34:30.014
How to learn what, how to learn each other's game, how to play with each other, and then you start clicking.
00:34:30.014 --> 00:34:33.668
You know having fun.
00:34:33.668 --> 00:34:34.612
This is awesome, man.
00:34:34.612 --> 00:34:34.871
I'm so true.
00:34:34.871 --> 00:34:35.574
You, how long does the season go?
00:34:35.574 --> 00:34:36.579
I know you said 12 games.
00:34:36.619 --> 00:34:38.186
But is that through April?
00:34:38.186 --> 00:34:38.447
May?
00:34:38.447 --> 00:34:39.632
That'd be really cool, but it's also June.
00:34:39.632 --> 00:34:42.644
I don't think it goes that far, but it definitely is through.
00:34:43.867 --> 00:34:44.590
February, I'm not sure.
00:34:44.590 --> 00:34:48.375
In India, I think it was different.
00:34:48.936 --> 00:34:56.186
So then, after the the regular season, it's winter ball, Paul, you know right, but is there like a champion like if you get to a certain record and and what's next?
00:34:56.186 --> 00:35:02.809
I guess, is there like a Championship game, like I guess where I'm going with this.
00:35:02.809 --> 00:35:10.923
I'd love to get you back on towards the end, depending on where you guys finish, and kind of the next game, depending on where you guys finish, and kind of the next piece of it.
00:35:12.186 --> 00:35:21.894
I think it's just playoffs and conference play, because we we playing the okay at red conference, so we have to play all those teams and I think that.
00:35:22.114 --> 00:35:23.798
And I think win the conference.
00:35:24.565 --> 00:35:27.231
Yeah, I'm doing like that go to states?
00:35:27.231 --> 00:35:28.193
I'm not sure.
00:35:28.554 --> 00:35:31.259
Yeah, it's the same same deal as any other state.
00:35:32.106 --> 00:35:32.768
Awesome dude.
00:35:33.490 --> 00:35:36.199
Yep, well, congrats, man 23.
00:35:36.199 --> 00:35:37.525
How many boards again?
00:35:38.809 --> 00:35:45.317
Uh, I'm I'm not sure, but A handful of but he's gonna throw down eight for you.
00:35:45.337 --> 00:35:46.942
But but he's gonna be dropped, he's got.
00:35:46.962 --> 00:35:47.304
He got big.
00:35:47.304 --> 00:35:48.688
I got cam there.
00:35:48.688 --> 00:35:51.232
They got big guys ripping boards, but he's gonna.
00:35:51.232 --> 00:35:53.478
Yeah, he just you know he's doing he's.
00:35:53.478 --> 00:35:55.368
Caden's game is growing out.
00:35:55.368 --> 00:35:57.835
That's a huge confidence builders, all that man.
00:35:57.835 --> 00:36:00.028
Oh he had a nice dunk.
00:36:00.028 --> 00:36:02.175
I sent it to Paul sideline.
00:36:02.746 --> 00:36:06.884
Well, I liked how you got the scoring, how you said it wasn't just dunks, it was a combination.
00:36:06.884 --> 00:36:09.813
You had some inside game and then you knocked down a bunch of threes too.
00:36:09.813 --> 00:36:10.956
That's really cool, man.
00:36:11.625 --> 00:36:12.848
Paul, that rider out too.
00:36:12.848 --> 00:36:17.467
It was like wait until next year for him to dunk on somebody, like get contact.
00:36:17.467 --> 00:36:19.614
Yeah, okay, look at you, you're gonna break out.
00:36:19.614 --> 00:36:20.817
He's gonna break out more and more.
00:36:20.817 --> 00:36:26.057
Caden's gonna grow so much this season it's journey, man I love it Awesome dude.
00:36:26.057 --> 00:36:30.418
Well man, so if you want to talk about anything else, what else is going on?
00:36:30.418 --> 00:36:32.005
Man like anything else.
00:36:33.608 --> 00:36:37.438
I'm not really, I just really really read my bible that a boy.
00:36:38.444 --> 00:36:38.846
Fates.
00:36:38.846 --> 00:36:42.565
First let's go, because there was.
00:36:42.565 --> 00:36:51.496
There was kind of like first streak where I wasn't really like confident, but I think it was either during Christmas, like one of the games during Christmas break.
00:36:51.496 --> 00:37:05.909
I just like my confidence just came back and I've been playing a while ever since, like I don't think there's probably I don't think there's been a game where I've had under 10 which is Kind of like I shouldn't have another 10.
00:37:05.909 --> 00:37:08.916
I should have over 10 because how much work I put in.
00:37:08.916 --> 00:37:16.989
But I've just been on a roll and I hope to continue it and just keep playing it hard and Keep doing whatever it takes to win.
00:37:17.471 --> 00:37:18.996
Yep, I'll replay baby.
00:37:19.804 --> 00:37:20.226
Let's do it.
00:37:20.226 --> 00:37:22.313
It's so cool to be on this journey with you, man.
00:37:22.313 --> 00:37:26.608
I'm glad you're able to come on and I can't wait to hear your next.
00:37:26.608 --> 00:37:27.310
I think what?
00:37:27.310 --> 00:37:32.652
When should we get Kaden back on After the like February, and maybe we bring him on next pond?
00:37:32.652 --> 00:37:33.574
Dude, you're coming on next.
00:37:35.545 --> 00:37:36.127
He's gonna have.
00:37:36.127 --> 00:37:43.715
Yeah, he can come on whenever he wants, but like it was especially if, like I wanted him have, I wanted to celebrate this little breakout game for him.
00:37:43.715 --> 00:37:47.469
Like I said is like once you break out, get 20, he's like he hit me with the text.
00:37:47.469 --> 00:37:48.813
I was it last night.
00:37:48.813 --> 00:37:51.911
Yeah, I was like in the gym just leaving.
00:37:51.911 --> 00:38:02.170
I'm like, yes, and it's just like once you, you have to Hit these levels to get like it's all about you know it's those levels to everything you know, and so he's just gonna continue.
00:38:02.190 --> 00:38:06.052
It's not about Sometimes it's not even a bout score like drew drew holiday.
00:38:06.052 --> 00:38:07.435
He's so effective.
00:38:07.435 --> 00:38:09.000
You don't see his 25 points game.
00:38:09.000 --> 00:38:18.746
We wish we'd have a little few more points, but he's such a Defend it, like his defense, in the way he runs the point the floor man and Derek white, I mean.
00:38:18.746 --> 00:38:21.791
Obviously points matter, dude, but you can.
00:38:21.791 --> 00:38:25.967
You can grow like I want to see you get comfortable, like what we're talking about.
00:38:25.967 --> 00:38:33.864
Before, like Dennis Robin, he was a called the worm, learning how to position yourself for rebounds, the timing of it, all that good stuff.
00:38:33.864 --> 00:38:35.590
You know working on that part of your game.
00:38:35.590 --> 00:38:37.567
You know All that.
00:38:37.567 --> 00:38:38.771
You know the deal, dude.
00:38:38.771 --> 00:38:40.969
So that's it, man.
00:38:40.989 --> 00:38:44.617
Hey, I got a quick question before you go, because we were just talking about this before you jumped on.
00:38:44.617 --> 00:38:46.873
I don't know if you watch the Celtics Denver game.
00:38:48.009 --> 00:38:50.480
Uh, I watched the last few minutes of the quarter.
00:38:50.480 --> 00:38:51.243
I don't watch the whole thing.
00:38:52.005 --> 00:38:53.248
So there was, there was a game.
00:38:53.248 --> 00:38:58.987
There was a play earlier in the game where Jason Tatum goes full court and dunks it.
00:38:58.987 --> 00:39:02.434
It was a sick play and he hung on the rim just for a little bit.
00:39:02.454 --> 00:39:05.507
Just gave it a little sauce, you know, just a little bit.
00:39:05.547 --> 00:39:08.235
He did a rim raise dude and they gave him a tack.
00:39:08.235 --> 00:39:10.964
They gave him a tack, it was a momentum killer.
00:39:11.405 --> 00:39:12.268
Do they do that in?
00:39:12.288 --> 00:39:19.929
high school, when you guys, when you dunk it, if you hang on the rim too much, will they give you a technical Uh that wouldn't have been a tack out of there.
00:39:19.969 --> 00:39:21.632
They definitely were in high school.
00:39:21.632 --> 00:39:23.737
I've seen her before, but not this year.
00:39:24.664 --> 00:39:30.867
That play shouldn't have been, because it was such a play that they're just like let it go, man, yeah, it's like that would.
00:39:30.867 --> 00:39:42.775
Oh, and this is a good thing that we can leave with for you, kid, he's, he got, he had a game where he was Getting irritated to take up the fouls, right, like, like, just that's the problem of the game.
00:39:42.775 --> 00:39:47.069
Sometimes we don't get these calls or we're just getting oh, my gosh, we're getting it's.
00:39:47.069 --> 00:39:47.952
It's a whole thing.
00:39:47.952 --> 00:39:50.121
The NBA with with the, the fouls.
00:39:50.121 --> 00:39:56.576
Sometimes they're bad calls, sometimes they're missed calls, and sometimes you feel like you picked on, like what is going on here right now.
00:39:56.576 --> 00:40:00.632
You know it's that's roll with the punches, adversity.
00:40:01.393 --> 00:40:02.927
Right, exactly.
00:40:03.590 --> 00:40:08.869
I was pumped because that was just like the game before, and then you came back With this big game, you know.
00:40:08.869 --> 00:40:11.394
So I think it was just the game before.
00:40:11.394 --> 00:40:12.438
We were like you were.
00:40:12.438 --> 00:40:12.998
You were just.
00:40:12.998 --> 00:40:13.766
You know.
00:40:13.766 --> 00:40:16.815
You have every right to be that way, man you know something?
00:40:17.804 --> 00:40:20.552
That's just, I think, what I've heard and learn.
00:40:20.552 --> 00:40:26.074
I think that's just how rest are the two at that place that play where we lost?
00:40:26.074 --> 00:40:31.469
Yeah, because I mean there's such a big crowd, so it's they're playing to that.
00:40:31.509 --> 00:40:35.605
They're playing it to the town politics could be right.
00:40:35.644 --> 00:40:36.909
Yeah it is what it is.
00:40:36.909 --> 00:40:39.030
Yeah, it's territorial.
00:40:39.085 --> 00:40:42.491
Personally, you know they guys, they take it personal.
00:40:42.491 --> 00:40:44.836
It's all the way up to the NBA.
00:40:45.418 --> 00:40:54.088
You know, though, you know, I mean, I personally feel like we should have won that game, but I mean, next time we see them, we'll just see what happens.
00:40:54.309 --> 00:40:54.730
It's on.
00:40:54.730 --> 00:40:56.016
So that's a cool little ride.
00:40:56.016 --> 00:40:57.248
So it's a big ride.
00:40:57.248 --> 00:40:58.894
Really got sparked then, so that's good.
00:40:58.894 --> 00:41:01.123
Yeah, I gotta see that game too.
00:41:01.123 --> 00:41:01.525

00:43:22.822 --> 00:43:26.291
Yeah, um, what I wanted to do, I know we were hitting on midseason.
00:43:26.291 --> 00:43:28.418
This will just kind of tie into the other teams.
00:43:28.418 --> 00:43:31.813
Yeah, it's another key date with the nba right.
00:43:31.813 --> 00:43:33.576
First we had the in season tournament.
00:43:34.025 --> 00:43:38.456
We had all that going on Well, the next key date, believe it or not, is this week.
00:43:38.456 --> 00:43:40.650
I didn't even know till I looked at it.
00:43:40.650 --> 00:43:43.770
Coach, it's nba Rivals week.
00:43:43.770 --> 00:43:51.135
I don't know who came up with this, but some of these rivals they're kind of weird, right, but for us they're not.
00:43:51.135 --> 00:43:51.936
It's not weird at all.
00:43:51.936 --> 00:43:54.389
We're playing miami, that's our rival.
00:43:54.389 --> 00:43:58.061
We're playing them on thursday, so that's going to be exciting to look forward to.
00:43:58.061 --> 00:44:01.500
That's thursday, um, but yeah, let's just talk with some of it.
00:44:01.500 --> 00:44:04.048
So one of them Denver, indiana.
00:44:04.048 --> 00:44:09.094
We talked about the Pacers in the in season tournament getting to the final.
00:44:09.094 --> 00:44:10.654
We all talked about Halliburton.
00:44:10.654 --> 00:44:12.856
I didn't realize they were a rival with Denver.
00:44:12.856 --> 00:44:15.398
But let's just talk Pacers in general right now.
00:44:15.398 --> 00:44:16.855
Like, are they still a threat?
00:44:16.855 --> 00:44:17.257
Let's go on.
00:44:17.257 --> 00:44:18.436
They just had a big trade.
00:44:18.436 --> 00:44:18.820
Coach.
00:44:19.871 --> 00:44:20.693
They got Seattle from.
00:44:20.713 --> 00:44:21.710
Toronto Like.
00:44:21.710 --> 00:44:24.291
Are they someone we need to worry about on our way to?
00:44:24.351 --> 00:44:24.673
June.
00:44:24.673 --> 00:44:32.018
I'm sorry, I'm not gonna worry about you Pacers, I think they fizzled out.
00:44:32.018 --> 00:44:33.715
It was the in season tournament shoots.
00:44:33.715 --> 00:44:35.174
They just had so much fire.
00:44:35.174 --> 00:44:36.755
No, you can't count them out.
00:44:36.755 --> 00:44:39.056
This is I will see how this trade works out.
00:44:39.056 --> 00:44:43.978
You know, and that way being said, I'm just gonna bring up the assistant coach.
00:44:43.978 --> 00:44:48.335
Sorry if I pronounced your name wrong, but I think it's Giannaro.
00:44:48.335 --> 00:44:52.259
Giannaro Pargo, mr Pargo from Indiana.
00:44:52.259 --> 00:44:53.714
He's an assistant coach.
00:44:53.714 --> 00:44:56.596
Okay, he's, he's a player with the guys.
00:44:56.596 --> 00:44:58.616
He's a great, he was a great player.
00:44:58.616 --> 00:45:00.235
He scored 22.
00:45:00.235 --> 00:45:03.559
He dropped 22 against the Suns as a Hornet back in 0-8.
00:45:03.559 --> 00:45:09.737
But he is connected to my guy, my new business associate, franco.
00:45:09.737 --> 00:45:15.869
A little shot off of Franco there Franco Lane from Lane printing and advertising.

I mean, you're the coach.
00:46:14.489 --> 00:46:16.897
Hopefully we're getting coach Pargo on with.

They're invited with Mr Franco Lane who's gonna help Murphball go to the next level?
00:46:23.029 --> 00:46:24.355
Man this journey's getting weird.
00:46:24.789 --> 00:46:25.755
It's getting crazy.
00:46:25.755 --> 00:46:28.858
I mean I love to have Tony on or Al, whatever.
00:46:28.858 --> 00:46:36.637
Tony Allen and the real quick Tony Allen story a lot of people know if you're a true Hoop fan is the show with the big ticket.
00:46:36.637 --> 00:46:38.054
The big ticket and the truth.
00:46:38.054 --> 00:46:46.132
I mean I don't know if they have that show if you're a Hoop fan, right, and Doc Rivers was on the show and it was awesome If everybody saw it.
00:46:46.132 --> 00:46:50.878
You were getting so much inside information about 08, the season 08.
00:46:50.878 --> 00:46:54.157
Well, danny Ainge, who was all running the whole.

That's the championship by the way, that's right.
00:46:57.271 --> 00:46:59.576
Where was Doc before that?
00:46:59.576 --> 00:47:02.333
He was a 76er, right, he was with Philly.
00:47:02.333 --> 00:47:04.375
Well, he called up Doc.
00:47:04.375 --> 00:47:05.512

00:47:05.512 --> 00:47:08.134

He was with the Hawks, I think, or something.
00:47:15.036 --> 00:47:15.858
Oh, it was the Hawks.
00:47:15.858 --> 00:47:17.192

00:47:25.516 --> 00:47:26.933
That's the correctional.
00:47:26.933 --> 00:47:27.757
That's what I was thinking.
00:47:27.757 --> 00:47:30.110
That's why we have podcast Paul at the helm here.
00:47:30.110 --> 00:47:31.750
That's why it's podcast speed.
00:47:31.750 --> 00:47:32.793

He was like how about right now?
00:47:42.416 --> 00:47:49.298
He was outside his office with the owners, he not just we're there.
00:47:49.298 --> 00:47:54.016
And he was just showed up and Doc's like all right, and they had a meeting.
00:47:54.016 --> 00:47:55.895
That's how aggressive that move was.
00:47:55.895 --> 00:48:02.554
And he wasn't even going to take the coaching job for the 08SW championship.
00:48:02.554 --> 00:48:04.652
He wasn't going to.
00:48:04.652 --> 00:48:14.259
But the Tony Allen connection Angel also loved Tony and so did Doc, the gritty man from Chicago.
00:48:14.259 --> 00:48:16.931

Let me think I'm going to give Franco a mention.
00:48:49.255 --> 00:48:51.315
He was a defensive wizard.
00:48:53.471 --> 00:48:55.130
He was a defensive wizard.
00:48:55.250 --> 00:49:02.896
Well, it's nice to be dropped out, he was he was, it was his nickname has something to do with defense and I can't the grind father.

Oh, I was not going to get the grind father is American.
00:49:06.771 --> 00:49:09.650

Played 14 seasons in the NBA, you know, primarily for us in the Grizzlies, Remember.
00:49:15.090 --> 00:49:15.994
So no, it's.
00:49:15.994 --> 00:49:18.574
I always think I'm like interesting Him and Marcus smart.
00:49:19.634 --> 00:49:21.972

00:49:24.650 --> 00:49:25.272
That's right.
00:49:25.272 --> 00:49:26.235
That's why it's like.
00:49:26.496 --> 00:49:28.121
But Tony was a baller.
00:49:28.121 --> 00:49:29.431
He was gritty.
00:49:29.431 --> 00:49:32.780
You know six, four to listen six fourth to 13.
00:49:32.780 --> 00:49:34.956
But I love the fact where he came from.
00:49:34.956 --> 00:49:36.072
Can you name the?
00:49:36.072 --> 00:49:37.918
You know the college we came from.
00:49:37.918 --> 00:49:39.494
If you nail this, I'm going to be pumped.
00:49:39.494 --> 00:49:41.034
What was the college he played for?
00:49:42.630 --> 00:49:49.212
The last college, the last college he played for, was Kansas.
00:49:49.212 --> 00:49:50.590
I have no idea Kansas.
00:49:50.692 --> 00:49:52.862
He was OK, he was Oklahoma State.
00:49:52.962 --> 00:49:53.690
OK, all right.
00:49:53.769 --> 00:49:58.529
All right, he came out of there like he was a ball to come ball out of that and we drafted him right.
00:49:58.589 --> 00:49:59.895
He was drafted by the Celtics.
00:50:00.791 --> 00:50:01.996
Yes, we had him.
00:50:01.996 --> 00:50:03.440
For what can you name the years?
00:50:03.440 --> 00:50:06.333
There is a professional Celtic Went home.
00:50:06.432 --> 00:50:12.402
Oh gosh, I mean, if it was, if he was there for a week, I'm going to go 2006.
00:50:14.230 --> 00:50:15.132
Nice try, though.
00:50:15.132 --> 00:50:16.918
Oh, four to two, 10.
00:50:17.278 --> 00:50:19.456
Oh right 2004, 2010.
00:50:19.516 --> 00:50:22.710
Ok, of course he was with us on oh wait, huge factor why?
00:50:22.710 --> 00:50:28.063
But I like the fact that he started Butler County Community College.
00:50:28.063 --> 00:50:32.460
All right, I won't get into the whole details, but that's what it's all about.
00:50:32.460 --> 00:50:40.250
So I told Caden said that even if, like, something doesn't go the way it should, this year and the next year is it over after high school.
00:50:40.250 --> 00:50:41.233
It's never over.
00:50:41.233 --> 00:50:42.952
You're so young and then he go.
00:50:42.952 --> 00:50:47.655
And then he went to Wabash Valley for a year, so 2000, 2001,.
00:50:47.655 --> 00:50:49.520
He was at the Butler Community.
00:50:49.520 --> 00:50:53.701
Could the cute Bouter, butler County's our Community College for that one year.
00:50:53.701 --> 00:50:55.856
Then the next year is at Wabash Valley.
00:50:55.856 --> 00:51:04.918
Then he transferred over to OK, ok, oklahoma State and the rest of his history Just keep leveling up and never give up his dream.
00:51:04.918 --> 00:51:06.951
And look where he went all the way to the top.
00:51:06.951 --> 00:51:14.454
So, franco Lane, ever something to Lane family Shout out, hopefully we'll see you guys, you boys on the show.
00:51:14.769 --> 00:51:17.038
Whoever wants to be on the show would be great to have a professional.
00:51:17.038 --> 00:51:18.836
It would be great for the show Great for all of us.
00:51:19.270 --> 00:51:19.712
Who put up?
00:51:21.654 --> 00:51:22.418
They go Tony.
00:51:22.552 --> 00:51:23.630
So staying on that.
00:51:23.630 --> 00:51:33.954
I know that's the end of the quiz, but saying on that, memphis, this is the last Memphis Grizzly mention because they stink, but we have to at least get another correction going here, goach.
00:51:34.743 --> 00:51:35.190
Oh, hold on.
00:51:35.190 --> 00:51:37.014
Well, for the correction, he also was.
00:51:37.014 --> 00:51:39.320
Tony was also a big 12 tournament MVP.
00:51:39.320 --> 00:51:40.414
He was like legit.
00:51:40.414 --> 00:51:42.036
He was legit in the 04.
00:51:42.036 --> 00:51:43.715
So what's the correction?
00:51:43.829 --> 00:51:45.094
Bring back to the bottom.
00:51:45.094 --> 00:51:47.317
The coach made a big prediction.
00:51:47.770 --> 00:51:48.393
Big boo with the.
00:51:48.432 --> 00:51:49.277
Memphis Grizzlies.
00:51:50.213 --> 00:51:54.308
Oh, what, what, what, but that's not your fault.
00:51:54.431 --> 00:51:55.298
That's not your fault.
00:51:55.610 --> 00:51:55.790
Do?
00:51:55.790 --> 00:51:59.574
I hope I didn't juju bad, juju him, but that's it.
00:51:59.574 --> 00:52:00.336
But you know what?
00:52:00.336 --> 00:52:01.072
Sorry.
00:52:01.092 --> 00:52:09.058
John John Moran, I'm not, it's kind of what you do Flash and guns though, so like you know what that?
00:52:09.058 --> 00:52:10.728
That's the whole deal here.
00:52:10.728 --> 00:52:20.194
Oh, nothing as much fun as we're having and we'll continue to have, and it's a journey and we love the NBA For every single one of these teams.
00:52:20.194 --> 00:52:21.677
It all comes down to health.
00:52:21.677 --> 00:52:25.554
Yeah right, you lose that team, they lose that superstar.
00:52:25.554 --> 00:52:25.976
It's over.
00:52:26.530 --> 00:52:29.994
It was so fun having him back in the NBA, so fun to watch.
00:52:29.994 --> 00:52:30.998
She's incredible.
00:52:30.998 --> 00:52:34.857
So I don't care about all that personal stuff, but, as mentioned, it's gun flashing.
00:52:34.857 --> 00:52:35.933
We're all we're doing that.
00:52:35.933 --> 00:52:40.177
It was stupid, we all make mistakes, but like OK, so that's it.
00:52:40.552 --> 00:52:41.760
Just to finish it up here.
00:52:41.760 --> 00:52:46.143
Getting back to the rivals, week and midseason and all this stuff, you said the Pacers.
00:52:46.143 --> 00:52:47.469
They're not there anymore.
00:52:47.469 --> 00:52:49.271
There were seven seed, so who?
00:52:49.271 --> 00:52:54.659
Are right now, as we're at the midseason point, who are the teams that are trending up?
00:52:54.659 --> 00:52:56.385
Who are the teams that you think?
00:52:56.447 --> 00:52:56.769
of a real shot.
00:52:56.769 --> 00:52:58.657
I already predicted that we're going to trend up.
00:52:58.657 --> 00:53:00.646
They already happened, Well we know the sell.
00:53:00.646 --> 00:53:03.621
We just talked, I told you though I would go with the East.
00:53:03.621 --> 00:53:04.204
We'll start with East.
00:53:04.204 --> 00:53:05.089
We already know this.
00:53:05.089 --> 00:53:07.409
The Cavs like you said, you want to talk about the Cavs.
00:53:07.409 --> 00:53:09.449
There are six game win streak.
00:53:09.449 --> 00:53:12.001
It's the next I predicted.
00:53:12.001 --> 00:53:15.938
The next is you're like the next, I told you, and then what about?
00:53:16.077 --> 00:53:17.201
what about the Miami Heat?
00:53:18.456 --> 00:53:22.264
Yep, they're always going to be an ish, like our Golden State little six seed.
00:53:22.284 --> 00:53:22.807
They're in it.
00:53:22.807 --> 00:53:30.806
Hey, last year they were at eight seed and they went all the way to the end finals there are six, so anything that happened there with the.
00:53:30.826 --> 00:53:32.302
Cavs, the next the heat.
00:53:32.322 --> 00:53:32.969
What about the sixers man?
00:53:33.614 --> 00:53:36.449
Well, you said it's a big three dude, it doesn't matter, that's right.
00:53:36.449 --> 00:53:37.018
So you still feel that?
00:53:37.362 --> 00:53:37.505
way.
00:53:37.505 --> 00:53:40.469
Everybody does I mean did you see him beat?
00:53:40.469 --> 00:53:42.849
I mean, we talked about the Joker at nauseam.
00:53:43.518 --> 00:53:44.308
Celtics box sixers.
00:53:45.092 --> 00:53:52.929
Did you see the Sixers Denver matchup earlier in the week before they came in here in bead outplayed the Joker in that game.
00:53:54.020 --> 00:53:54.929
No, he's talking about in bead man.
00:53:55.132 --> 00:53:56.469
It's like it's like the whole thing.
00:53:56.509 --> 00:53:57.829
Quiet, all that quiet stuff.
00:53:57.829 --> 00:54:00.723
Same with Joker and Denver.
00:54:00.723 --> 00:54:01.849
They quietly, but we just hit on it.
00:54:01.849 --> 00:54:01.971
Health.
00:54:01.971 --> 00:54:03.327
That's the thing with him.
00:54:03.327 --> 00:54:05.264
He always breaks down in the playoffs.
00:54:07.278 --> 00:54:09.516
So if he doesn't break down this year, that's going to be tough, so what?
00:54:09.516 --> 00:54:12.103
About the West man In the West.
00:54:12.103 --> 00:54:15.849
I said this as well, I said the next in the East, which I was right about.
00:54:15.849 --> 00:54:19.272
And then what else was right about the?
00:54:19.293 --> 00:54:22.357
Clippers, oh, your Clippers, they're fourth.
00:54:22.589 --> 00:54:29.509
You are so on point with that Coach you had to be because it's like you two, it's really simple, are they a real threat?
00:54:29.529 --> 00:54:30.534
It's a flip of a coin.
00:54:31.029 --> 00:54:36.014
So it's not like this magic, like this magical guess or something, it's a simple.
00:54:36.014 --> 00:54:36.677
You flip the coin.
00:54:36.677 --> 00:54:48.798
You either get it together because you have James Harden, paul Gaspi, the second Paul George, kwy Leonard and Russell Westbrook on the same team.
00:54:48.798 --> 00:54:55.614
Yeah, those four get your, get your ish together in your gold, and they did Harden's playing a little bit better.
00:54:55.730 --> 00:54:57.135
We might be on the same page here.
00:54:57.135 --> 00:54:58.733
So again, midseason.
00:54:58.733 --> 00:55:00.500
This is all we're doing right now.
00:55:00.500 --> 00:55:02.938
We'll see what happens in the next 40 to 100.
00:55:02.938 --> 00:55:03.612
Did you see the?
00:55:03.652 --> 00:55:08.415
Anthony, others move, he threw a ball at the back and man off the backboard moved.
00:55:08.415 --> 00:55:09.038
You saw it.
00:55:09.038 --> 00:55:10.290
Yeah, it's my.
00:55:10.290 --> 00:55:11.396
I love my hand.
00:55:11.396 --> 00:55:13.018
Man Dude, what was?
00:55:13.038 --> 00:55:15.355
that that play was crazy.
00:55:15.355 --> 00:55:21.842
We're on the same page here, Boston, Milwaukee, although man they are obviously we got to put them in there.
00:55:21.842 --> 00:55:25.632
Boston, milwaukee, 76ers, those three teams.
00:55:25.632 --> 00:55:32.636
One of those teams is going to make it, but in the West I say it's four teams Minnesota, okc.
00:55:32.636 --> 00:55:37.270
We haven't even talked about OKC 13, denver, denver.
00:55:37.270 --> 00:55:40.940
Obviously we just talked again about the war and the Clippers.
00:55:41.400 --> 00:55:43.612
That's it and everybody else I know.
00:55:43.652 --> 00:55:49.800
The Pelicans are at five and they still have what it takes to have OKC, though, is kind of going the other direction all of a sudden but we'll see.
00:55:49.909 --> 00:55:51.454
And the Mavs don't have what it takes.
00:55:51.454 --> 00:55:52.589
No, it's going to happen with the Mavs.
00:55:52.589 --> 00:55:53.815
No, it's going to happen with the Kyrie.
00:55:53.815 --> 00:55:55.433
You saw that right.
00:55:55.433 --> 00:55:56.793
Where's Kyrie going?
00:55:56.793 --> 00:55:59.061
Lebron's not done Well big week.
00:55:59.182 --> 00:56:00.813
big week for the Kyrie is going back to.
00:56:00.813 --> 00:56:01.556
La.
00:56:01.556 --> 00:56:04.396
Ooh, big week for the green.
00:56:04.396 --> 00:56:08.480
We got tomorrow, E-May 2, E-May again in Houston.
00:56:09.289 --> 00:56:10.916
Then Monday we're playing the Mavs.
00:56:11.429 --> 00:56:15.335
We're in Dallas, dude Monday night, Then we're flying to Miami.
00:56:15.335 --> 00:56:18.717
We already hit on it NBA rivals week in Miami.
00:56:18.717 --> 00:56:31.869
And then Saturday, one week from today, Coach, we're back in the garden going for 21 and one against you or Clippers.
00:56:31.929 --> 00:56:34.185
It was actually 27 in a row this week.
00:56:34.185 --> 00:56:34.809
We had a streak.
00:56:34.809 --> 00:56:36.656
Your Clippers next Saturday.
00:56:36.777 --> 00:56:38.315
I know that's what I'm pumped about.
00:56:38.315 --> 00:56:39.534
That's going to be fun.
00:56:39.929 --> 00:56:41.275
Because there could be a dark horse.
00:56:41.275 --> 00:56:46.974
There's always like these dark horses, but it's only going to happen if there's injury issues with those teams.
00:56:46.974 --> 00:56:51.179
There's like there's no getting around those top teams unless they're injured.
00:56:51.179 --> 00:56:52.732
That's it, Simple as that.
00:56:53.449 --> 00:56:57.019
Well, Coach, this has been a fun pod, as always.
00:56:57.019 --> 00:57:03.795
Before you take us out, just some other key dates coming up just to get you thinking about the next pod, get you excited.
00:57:03.795 --> 00:57:09.561
So February 8th NBA trade deadline Could be some moves.
00:57:09.561 --> 00:57:12.817
We already talked Siakam from Toronto to Indiana.
00:57:12.817 --> 00:57:13.518
That was a big one.
00:57:13.518 --> 00:57:14.161
There'll be more.
00:57:14.201 --> 00:57:17.337
Yeah, and then that will break dude.
00:57:18.331 --> 00:57:26.757
February 16th through the 21st, it's already almost the NBA All-Star break, which that's what we think midseason no, that's right now All-Star break.
00:57:26.757 --> 00:57:28.956
Then it's only the stretch run from there.
00:57:28.956 --> 00:57:31.356
So I'm thinking what are you thinking, dude?
00:57:31.356 --> 00:57:34.759
Like probably get on at the All-Star break, like we always do?
00:57:34.759 --> 00:57:37.076
Right, Probably a good time to get back on.
00:57:37.076 --> 00:57:39.857
Yeah, all-star break, yep, that's it baby.
00:57:39.857 --> 00:57:42.116
And then Kaden will be close to the end of his season.
00:57:42.116 --> 00:57:44.882
Mm-hmm, and him back on Dude.
00:57:45.424 --> 00:57:46.190
That's not perfect.
00:57:46.190 --> 00:57:47.194
What a journey man.
00:57:47.194 --> 00:57:48.835
The journey to June.
00:57:49.331 --> 00:57:51.193
Just two Murph talk Take us out, man.
00:57:52.351 --> 00:57:56.759
J2M's Well, things are going well in my life with Murph Ball.
00:57:56.759 --> 00:57:58.529
I've had some dreams come true, some.
00:57:58.529 --> 00:58:00.815
I have a great new CEO.
00:58:00.815 --> 00:58:03.081
We planted in Mr Paul Kearney, pk.
00:58:03.081 --> 00:58:09.337
He was some name dropping today, franco, and hopefully we'll have some one of those pros on.
00:58:09.337 --> 00:58:10.760
I can't wait to play.
00:58:10.760 --> 00:58:11.482
You play golf.
00:58:11.482 --> 00:58:12.974
We got some, he's really good.
00:58:12.974 --> 00:58:15.978
So we get some golf playing going on.
00:58:15.978 --> 00:58:19.976
But the whole thing is, it's daily, it's one day at a time.
00:58:19.976 --> 00:58:22.898
I didn't know that this board meeting was going to happen yesterday.
00:58:22.898 --> 00:58:25.376
It's going to have this amazing experience.
00:58:25.376 --> 00:58:28.157
You don't know what tomorrow is going to bring.
00:58:28.157 --> 00:58:30.898
This is 12 years in the making for me and Murph Ball.
00:58:30.898 --> 00:58:37.400
This is three, four years in the making with J2M, and Kobe would always say he's at the, he was at the summit.
00:58:37.400 --> 00:58:41.550
So you look up, you're like, oh, look at Kobe, it's not about the summit, it's.
00:58:41.550 --> 00:58:42.596
What is it about, paul?
00:58:43.030 --> 00:58:45.675
It's about it's all about the journey, baby.
00:58:45.675 --> 00:58:47.134
That's it, man.
00:58:47.134 --> 00:58:48.373
Keep it simple.
00:58:48.373 --> 00:58:51.474
Keep it in the day, one day at a time.
00:58:51.474 --> 00:58:54.197
It's the journey, not the destination.
00:58:54.197 --> 00:58:57.338

00:58:57.338 --> 00:59:00.310
