Youike and uh so you know, you know he died too. I know he died. I don't say he died before Tina. I know he should

She said that that was a dark point of her time and the fact that a lot of people took it after the joke, M it really was not good for her mental help. So and so when he worked, he said, uh, America. Yeah, she left America, Michael left America for a little while. Many. I didn't. I didn't know.

Tina didn't live here. I didn't know. Yeah, we our sons, Patte. You know her sons passed away. You know, two of her sons passed away, and it was you know, just her man, So you know that does that does a little different man show m Yeah, rest in peace, the legendary team attorney. Yeah, rest in Paradise wanted to put that out there. Um, we're gonna go ahead and start off with

the injury report. So although the season is over, the Los Angeles Lakers have recently reported that Lebron James had been playing with the torn tendon in his foot for the last few months and he will require surgery this summer. The Boston Celtics are without Malcolm brog didn't I didn't say that. Um, he didn't play yesterday, so they're without him. He's playing through a partial tear and tendon coming out of his right elbow that leads into his forearm. He

has the most interesting injuries I've ever seen. Right, has he ever played a four season since he won Rookie of the Year. Even this year given him six man that was a force that was I don't think he even had. I don't think I'm gonna check the stats. I'm not gonna say. I just think he Boston. We're fine without him. Whether he came up the bench or a starter, whatever case may be. He didn't really add that much to it. Yeah, Um, not gonna be done with the

injury pore. You're gonna get to the shoot around, h slash and other news around the NBA where we talk about rumors was going on in the playoffs and stuff at that nature. Um, first you want to talk about um comments from Scottie Pippen. He said Jordan was a bum before he joined the team. Now we have a quick video to play to uh go along with this narrative that Jordan was a bum before Scottie Pippen play and let the chips fall where they met. Let's get at all you got a bill? Oh

man? Listen? Did boss ain't tell? We need a bill on here? What the media does not want you to know about Michael Jordan before Scottie Pippen got there, A total and complete loser, not just never got out of the first round, not just one and nine in the playoffs, never even above five hundred in the regular season. Larry Bird the best player when he walked into the league. Do you know how many times Michael beat Larry in the playoffs? I don't mean in a series, I mean in a

single playoff game. The answer to that is zero. We pretend Jordan's career was six years long. Everyone eight on Michael's watch. We just pretend it didn't happen. Well, Larry one Cream one, Magic One, Isaiah One, A Team one, Dregs, the One, Shock one, Kobe one, David Robinson, Tim Duncan one. If we are decided, the only years of Jordan's career that counts are the years he won championships. Well that's a hell of a resume, but that's not how this works. Now.

That commentary was from Nick Grant. I'm not familiar with the show he's on, Honest with you, doesn't really matter. He has a valid argument about the great No he does, Jordan, No, he doesn't. We're gonna kick it to my right now, gonna last because I'm not get in. I mean, that's why we played. So let me say this. First of all, um, Michael Jordan himself said no Scottie Pippen, no championships. That's the first thing. Okay. The second thing, and this would

be quick. I won't even go on a long run because there's no point. The second thing is the world saw what Scottie Pippen can do without Michael Jordan's. Okay, when Michael Jordan retired the first time, Scottie Pippen couldn't get it done. Okay, then get done. He is back. He sat on the TV, and uh, well, what Jordans are those that you have with the North Carolina Jordans that I've been trying to give for years.

You know what's what I'm talking about? The Charlotte Hornet Jordan's. Yeah, the whole world watched Scotty and the Charlotte Hornet Jordan's waved his feet on TV, the ones that Kissy got out of Hornet whatever. The whole world watched Scottie on TV, put the tens on the camera and asked Michael to come back to the game of basketball. The whole world watched Scottie Pippen not go in the game when Phil Jackson begged him to go in the game,

when Tony Kuko chook the last shot and they won the game. Say that Michael Jordan was a bum before. Scotti is not only disrespectful, but this clown what is his name? Nick who? Nick Wright? Is a clown? He is a clown. If I use cuss words, I will call him something else that See. See, here's the thing, stephen A got these commentators thinking they can give hot takes about everything. Right. You got JJ Reddick with his dumb remarks that John Morranch should fight it. You got

this clown nick right with his god off of remarks. Nick Wright could have simply said Jordan didn't win before Scotty and it would be true. But to say Jordan was garbage. The rookie of the year, the man in average twenty eight points his first year in the league, the man at average twenty two, then the man in average thirty seven. Scottie joined the team in late eight seven. The first three years of Jordan was there. Jordan was

rebranding the game of basketball. So like my man's lepron you, I'm gonna take a line out of Kissy book. Look at that roster Jordan had before Scottie Pippen did, and think that he could take that roster to the finalist stop it. Not only did Scottie Pippen come in and help, Horace Grant came in and helped, Bill Cartwright came in and helped. Jim Paxson came in and help. We understand that basketball is a team sport. There is

no doubt that Jordan would not have those rings without Scottie. But to say that Jordan was trash, Nick Write's comments are ridiculous, and Scottie Pippen I'm gonna say this about Scottie. Scotty lost a son which I didn't know about. He lost his wife to Michael Jordan's son. So Scotti has a little

temper tampatum right now. Understanding that you weren't Michael and you might want to be Michael, Scotty needs to get somewhere and pray, get a therapist, read a book, and get off to Michael Trent because it is not helping you at all. Nick Wright, you sir, our garbage m number one. It took longer than what you said it was gonna take. Thanks a lot of that. Thank you for that, that that sound, thank you, thank you, And it's too late now anyway, I see it.

Okay, um, real quick, do you want to go? Would you like to rebuttal this? I mean, if it was Lebron, I'm just gonna be honest. If it was Lebron that had Jordan's start to a career, we would never hear the end of it. He's been scrutinized since the day he walked in the league. When he first come to Link. You told me you didn't like him. I didn't like him, true, but I became a what I became a what I became a fan? Do you want not give Lebron his flowers? I don't supposed to. Do you want

to not give Lebron? But at the end of the day, I can say I agree with Nick Right for a certain extent, but not with him saying he was a boom. I would say, say he's a ball. Nick Right, just put it out there. I'm a Loser's works than being called what is the loser? What is the loser? A first who does not win? So he didn't call him a bomb, but a loser. He was a loser, but he wasn't a loser. The Scotty got their team were losers, not Mike Hey, Michael's on the team. So then

we Lebron loser? Do they say the team lost because the Lakers just got swept? And who did they say lost? Lebron? I swept. So this record, it's on his record. Now here's my thing. So why Jordan don't get that that treatment, because if you look back at it, he was a loser. He was getting he was getting it whipped three years in six years in total, but the first three years, first three years, they wasn't even five hundred. He was a rookie in eighty four.

Mm hmm, okay, so there's an expectation that all rookies have to come in and win right away. Lebron did he did not? Yeah, he did. He went to the finals. They expected him to come in and be Jesus himself. See that's two. This is two different erarors. Though different. I'm just saying though the standard the stands. We wasn't that high for Jordan. Jord wasn't even picked number one, I know, but Jordan

number three. No, Jordan came off of a NC double, a championship that he made the game winning shot, and so expecting him to come in and they expect they was like, Jordan is a high pick. They didn't expect him to turn nobody. It's hard to say that now just because the media was different, because you can't say, oh, I expect great things they were. They weren't high on Jordan. That's why he wasn't the number one picking. Sam Bluie was so Sam who So That's what I'm saying.

So it wasn't I don't want to put the when you put the Lebron narrative on Jordan. It's two different it's that's the main comparisons that's going around compared to Jordan because of the things he's done. And my thing about the whole Jordan situation is um nick Wright said some things that were true. Like he said some things that were true, like like did they beat the Celtics in the playoffs? Did he beat the Subtons in the playoffs? Yess? No

question is he ys? No question? Even when even him having sixty three, guess what they lost that series? They should one, they should have. It was just hey, it was just Michael thought. That's not the point. It's not the point. Yeah, not the point. Point is hypocrites, hypocrits. The facts are the facts are the stats, and the stats say he was a loser. No, no, he was a loser. No, no, I get it. You're a fan. You called Jordan. No nowt he think about Jordan's this Once he figured it out,

he became a winner. Now you can't, dre you even say this to yourself. I love Jordan, Jordan's greatest player ever. But we ain't gonna talk about those Washington Wizards years of course not. Yeah, that's what he said. Nick Rice said, nobody wants to talk about Jordan and his era of losing. That was his point. Let's talk about it. At at age forty he averaged twenty two points, played more games in half the league. At age forty one, he averaged twenty two points. Twenty two point

zero points. Here, here's the thing. I don't care about that, just like I don't care about Lebra scoring all these points. He's still getting swept as long as it wasn't. In the final, Lebron had thirty eight points and they still scott swept. So exactly. So my thing is this, you can't you can't have the good without the bad. And that's the

whole point it is, you can't have to do without the bad. Now, as far as Scottie Pippen goes, Scottie Pippet is I'm gonna say in his feelings, but Scottie Pippet always felt like, you're making this documentary about yourself and you're you rarely, or you barely, or you don't mention it all the people who really helped you get to the point where you were at. That's that has been Jordan, That's been the Scottie Pippen narrative. But

it's the wrong narrative. Hold on a second, though, Jordan has said in the documentary, there was no Scottie Pippen, no championships then as Roman did this, horse Grant did that. Now he's also Jordan also through those guys under the bus a little bit. Everybody walked away from the Jordan documentary feeling the type of way. So if everybody feel up to a certain type of way, obviously there's some things miss here. It hurts to be the

greatest. Uh. They persecuted Jesus, they hated Jesus. Jesus is the greatest person to add that, to ever, to ever live, right, to be the only man to be resurrected from the dead, right right talking about we're talking about basketball, but I'm making a comparison here we are. I'm not what I'm saying. They talked about Jesus, They'll talk about anybody. Wow, they talk about Michael Jordan. Okay, talk about anybody.

The fact that we're debating this forty years after the man was drafted shows just how great he is. Nick Wright, you're a terrible comments. It just shows you how much social media is around now to bring up everything that happened back everything and nobody ever talked about so Michael Jordan had a grip on the media that he did. In fact, I remember, I think it's Jim Rome said some very critical things about Michael, and Michael refused to talk to

him. Again. There was a sports writer for the White Sox that says some really bad things about his baseball playing days, which he probably should have because he sucked as a baseball player, and Michael refused to talk to him. But to say that Michael, to say that the Goat was a loser and he's still the goat is irrelevant. It's irrelevant. You have to win, you have to lose to win. It's irrelevant. No side. Part of his career is part of his journey, and that's the whole point.

Like, take take away the fandism out of this. I think it wrong, but I'm going to go with it. It's dictionary, but whatever, it's not a dictionary, but whatever. Take that out of this. He had to lose to win and that's nothing wrong. That's the thing. And you just know this, listen, man, you have to lose to win. Speak for yourself. Don't call him. So that's no, no, no, no, no no, that's fine. No, because I acknowledge. We sat at this table and I said, until I realized how rate

Michael was, Scottie Pippen was my favorite player. I didn't stop losing respect for Scotty until he started dogging him. J Okay, let's not act like that. So we're spending a lot of time talking about on how great Michael wasn't Let's talk about what Scotty couldn't do when Michael left. Okay, you tried to paint a picture that you were as good as Michael Jordan. You went to Portland, you did nothing. You went to Houston, and in the media, ap in the media, and the media ate him alive about

that stuff. Right, Nobody eats Jordan up about nothing. All they talk about is his sixth championship. They talk about nothing besides that. They talk about his gambling debt. They talk about him hit Kase sell that ten million dollar house in Chicago. They talk about him being a terrible owner. Him and Charles Barkley aren't best friends now because Charles Barkley got on TV and criticized Michael's yes men around him. They don't talk now. Listen, listen here,

Michael Jordan. Listen listen here. Huh okay, Michael, Michael Jordan not only did the NBA a favorite when he retired, he handed Kenny Kenny the Jet Smith a title. He handed the Kim Eliju on the title. And then in ninety eight when he retired again, Scotty left and went. He wasn't old. Scotty left and enjoined the Houston rock or the Portland Trail Blazons. Couldn't do it. He went and joined Charles Barkley and Eli Juan to try to do it in the Rockets. Couldn't do it. So if

you want to talk about how bad Michael was, that's cool. Let's talk about how bad Scotty was. Since he thinks he's as great as Michael, let's talk about that. Do a commentary on that, Nick right, do a commentary on that. JJ Ready, let's not be disrespectful. Like I won't let nobody disrespect Lebron, you shouldn't let nobody disrespect Michael. That's file. That's still at the end of the day. You still to turn away from what we're talking about. No, I'm not you are what am I?

What am I to? Turning away from Jordan did not have losing seasons. If you look at his numbers, Orton never had a bad season outside of the Washington Wizard years. But at forty Okay, okay. If that's the case, then Lebron has never had a losing season. I Lebron has never that right because he came in the league and he put up numbers of somebody who had been in the league five years. And I agree with you. Lebron individual stats were never a losing season. His team didn't win titles.

If you said the Bulls didn't win championships before Scotty, cool, we know that that's facts. No, it's facts. Jordan one dump championships, Jordan one defensive Players of the Year, Jordan one scoring titles all before Scotty. The narrative that he was a loser has to stop. His team didn't win doesn't make that, doesn't make this second. This ain't This ain't the Chicago Michael. Jordan's Michael. It's the Chicago bull Michael. I got Cleland

Cavaliers. Michael, they lose. I got you talk about the star player. Michael Jordan was a star player. Hey, y'all just lost to the Boston Celtics for one We gotta get better. Hey, Lebron, y'all just got swept by the Denver Nuggets. We gotta get better. And you take it to the chenny. He keep it moving. Now, why ya actually like this stuff? Never happened. It's just, you know, because no

one's calling on. Let's move on to the next topic. No, no, no, we don't get to end it just because y'all don't feel like talking about it. About ninety minutes talking about Lebron, talking about that you refused your refusing knowledge that Jordan was part of a losing team. That's not the question. You said Jordan was a loser. He was on the losing team. The loser. Asked the question. If Michael was on a losing team, ask the questions, So, Michael, Michael Jordan was on a

losing team. Was Michael Jordan the player a loser? No, he was not. Stats don't lie, Awards don't lie. Let's move on. Record. Records don't lie either. Records don't lie either. The NBA. The NBA is elected All for team every year up until the Wizards. The NBA is considering changing the All Star formats back to East versus West. Michael, I got your back, bro I got you bad, I got you. Yeah, just keep holding his nut sacks all the way to all the way

through the course. You're talking about nut sacks. If I'm holding he is what you holding Lebron? You just want to fight us over Jordan's not about Jordan was a loser. You dang you. You almost slapped him. You dang your flipped table, flapping table so hard you could have slapping to come on, man, nut sack, find another word, find another way to say that said to me, damn said they didn't think derogatory to you about Lebron other than hit Lebron should be claiming you on his taxes. That is

not the same of holding up. I need to be. You need to put me on pay roll. I'll get that household. Were you holding his nuts? You should be. NBA is considering see if X rated. If I'm holding it, Lebrons's dangling in your face? How about that we'll take the NBA. NBA is considering changing the all star format back the East versus West. Do you like her dislikes? Well, this makes the NBA games more competitive. I like East West. It makes it a little more competitive

to me, because you want to go against the East. You're gonna meet the East in the finals. Yeah, and you're gonna meet the Western the finals. So I liked it it like that when it was Remember how when it was Jordan's and who was in the East back the Dan on the same

team what Jordan Shack were on the same team from the East? Yeah, Orlando, Yeah, Yeah, it was like it was like Scottie Pippett and uh Shack penny Ny right away, yeah, grand Hill, like when you when you got like when you got because like right now, I think in the NBA, oh, it might be like a landslide. To be really honest with you, all the top of your heads. Five stars, you're started from the Eastern from the West, well right now, right now East

Jannis Uh, Trey Young, Uh shooting guard. You got to you gotta think about all stars. No, I'm talking about people. Pick five players from the East. Would you consider on your all Star team? And start? You're starting five and fireflayer from the West is easy. Kevin Durant, uh Joker, Steph Curry, Jamal Murray and what is that for that? Five? Um? And um John Moran. So you're really just gonna skip a whe Lebron keeping. You said starting five. You said starting five as

Lebron James. Okay, Kevin Durant, you skipped over. He would have been the sixth man we're talking about right now. You said, right now Lebron is started talking about the playoffs, talking about the All Star Game. Okay, five, Lebron, Steph Joker, No you pick. You picked Lebron, Steph Joker, Kevin Durant, and Devin Booker. So there's a lot. So here's why I don't like it because the league is still Although the teams are balanced, the league is unbalanced because the star power is where

in the Western Conference? No, No, because you got Yannis, you got Tatum, you got Brown, you got Jim James, Harden in the West. Now here's the thing, Spider, It's gonna be hard to find starters. Luca Joker, Murray Staff, Ron, k d Booker, Anthony Davis, Kawhi, Leonard, Paul George, what's my man from um uh Sacramento? Darren five. Now you're just naming star players we're talking about, but these are all all Stars and all stars. Anthony Davis gonna being All

Star team? Come on, man, Ad may not this year but he was an All Star. Last year he was All Star. He was a d has not missed UPNY All Star selections. It was just Lebron. He's still in All Stars. But the point making is this for me, it's on the East, is dwelling be Jannie Trey yep, I said, Trey um Oh, Mitchell, Donovan, Donovan, Mitchell and point guard. That's what I'm saying. In the West you would have got that already James Harden

and the West she would have got that done already in the West. But see, that's the thing though, I think that it does make it more competitive. But on the West, the West is packed, but the West is um with older players, but it's packed with stars. So like if having that finding a starting five, it would be very interesting. Bronson, I didn't even think about Tator. That's who would be Tatum. So umn I think that I think, I think it's a good idea. I think

I don't dislike the idea. But you don't know who's gonna be in the East after this summer or the West. We know Kyrie's clearly head in to LA's not Bruh, don't don't. We got some comments on streamline from Doctor Bird Scottie feelings are hurt like a baby. He was singing a different tune before the last dance. He also said Scotti is tweaking. Then he said the media expected great things from Jordan. He exceeded them. He wasn't supposed

to be all time just very good. But back to your question, I don't mind them splitting it, but I think the Western Conference is going to be the dominant conference because as great as Yannis is, none of those players we name can be None of the players in the West that we put up against Yann can compete with them. I don't think Johannis can't compete. But we're talking about the All Star team. There's that word team again, only

Reason and Brown. I ain't buying it. Bro Yanni's Tatum and Brown against Lebron, Joker and Staff. Okay, you uh so call the player and be Joker, next squad Lebron, do the East, Lebron, Tatum, Yannest, Tiffer, Tat Yere honest, be honest, go ahead, who else? We've already seen that in the final. We got it. You know, see what happens, to see what happens. I don't mind it Keys, I don't, but I do like the fact that it shuffles it up a bit. I like the whole like Lebron being able to draft the

players. Yannis, But Yannis to me, man, you don't have to be loyal in the All Star team. Bro pick the best player. We want to give everybody a chance. This is supposed to this is supposed to be a show. And I'm tired of the draft situation because the situations like

that. Um. I think that like, hey, you gotta verse for the best players on the East. I think the East versus West gives it some type of competitive if they're on top of that, maybe throwing an incentive in they're like, uh, home home court of the winner, like they're doing baseball. So I think that type of stuff can bring more competitive adds to the NBA All Star Game. I mean, nowadays people just trying not to get hurt and just playing less defense. That's what this Kobe thing was

supposed to be. So um that's my little take on it. UM. Moving on, the NBA Competitive Committee is considering penalizing flop flops with a technical file free throw. Is this a good or a bad idea? For I love it. I think it's I think it's a good idea because it's destroying the game and it's injuring a lot of players. Here's the thing about that, though it's hard in live action, it's hard to tell if the person is flopping. I said a live action go to the monitor. But I

have time for that. Yeah, you do. You you don't have the time. You don't have the time for every time somebody flopping. I guarantee you. If the NBA makes a flop rule, they're gonna have to go to the monitor. Because here's the thing right now, you can't take it back. Right So if you go all a file on Draymond, unless you challenge the play, you can't take it back. So you have the challenges

already. But if you add I guess my thinking about that, it's gonna be a lot of you call it because it's what has happened, is this, But the players they're trying, they're slowing a game down. How you doing this? Because how many times if he got people flop? It just just for the ref to seed in live action and call personal files Chris Paul or such as such as Chris Paul, Marcus Smart like these guy, James

Harden. These guys live off this type of stuff. So when you took about we're gonna penalize a free throw, then you gotta look at the monitor where you gotta go back to the monitor. That's another one, two, three minutes then. And it's on one hand, I do see it like that, But on other hand, I just I'm just not the biggest fan of it because it's gonna slow the game down. And it does. I mean Luca slows it up anyway, I mean he does. And to make

the game competitive again, you gotta stop the bullcrap. And there's a lot of bullcrap happening in these games, a lot of traveling, a lot of double dribbles, a lot of flopping, a lot of note calls. Traveling been around for a long time, it has, but now it's picking up. Yeah, it's up with these point guards. With these point guards, I mean older players, Lamron, you know, they they kind of feed off that type of stuff because you know who they are. I don't think.

I just feel like I just feel like you're riding a slippery slope with that to do something because flopping, we've seen where some critical calls have shifted the outcome of the game. And I think that's I think that it's an unridden rule with referees. I'm not gonna call. I'm not gonna make a call to determine a basketball game unless it's obvious. Last night, for instance, for instance, Jimmy Butler made that an obvious call, like you have

to call this. But if let's say that was a different circumstances, like the going back to the Bucks when they play in Miami, he put Jimmy Butler that buzzer beater to send it to overtime. He pushed off on Pat Connington to get that, to get that, to get that lived a file. Now we're looking back that saying it should have been a file. But in the last thirty seconds of a game, they're not gonna call something like that to determine the game. Then how do you call it? Then?

Last night, you just don't call it. Oh no, last night, like last night was too obvious of a call. It was too obvious not to call it. That, not that they played the Bucks, it was very obvious. Everybody in the arena jumped out of their seat, like the Files. Yeah, I think it's different when you're shooting in your gaining position. No. Well, and more importantly, like Lebron, Like Lebron, that Lebron shot in a regular game with five minutes left, ten minutes left,

they might have called a file let. That was a filein. Think about Think about Pat Beverley, right, Pat Beverley has said a number of times how many games Chris Paul should have filed out because of his flopping. He gets away with it. That has to stop, man, it has to stop. Players are getting injured. Marcus marks the king. But Brin is bad with it too, not as bad as others. And I think players need to know, like man, you cannot flop your way to a

victory. Played the game the way it's supposed to be played. Let's say, work smarter than I heard, but I get it. I like um. Carmelo Anthony officially retired this week. Uh, there's talks in the different Denver Nuggets organization that retiring about retiring his jersey number number fifteen along with a joker when it's time. Thoughts on two players having the same number retired on one team. First, Well, first of all, yeah, let's let's

get mellow with flowers. First, shout out to Melo, man, I want to start back, but go what do you guys think about the his jersey being retired in Denver along with Jokers? So you know how I am about retirement jerseys. I think it's great to respect the player, but Denver holes Carmelo nothing. He didn't bring them a title. He demanded a trade. He flopped on the court to get traded. Do you remember that when he faked fainted on the court. So you can respect and give him his

flowers and thank him and give him a video. But I don't think you owe him retirement. That's just me. Joker's gonna deliver them their first title en franchise. Well, first of all, let's not let's not counter efty before they get hatched. So my thing of mine, I was gonna put that that got you wearing that fake uh LeVar Lakers had So the Joker will go down in history. Is one of the NBA's greatest players ever if he wins. Carmelo is one of the greatest players already, and and and and

again. What I'm saying is I wouldn't mind them doing it, but I would be okay if they didn't. Just like the Bucks, Ray Allen laugh Bucks don't owe him anything. Him and Yan is worth the same number, I think. I right, Yeah, you're right. Here's the thing about Carrela Anthony. Carrela Anthony did take deliver Nuggets to the conference to conference finals. I don't know if you took them to the finals. I don't think Carmelo has ever been out of the second round of the playoffs. Yes,

he's been to the Copcraffer Finals. I don't know the Lakers. They lost to the Lakers Conference finals. Are you sure? Yes? So my thing about that is this, I don't think. I don't think it's NBA final. I think him to the conference finals they lost against LA I believe. My thing is, I think we're getting to the point in the NBA where guys are picking up numbers unless it's an obvious number like twenty three. Okay, he's been to the finals one time, you are NBA Finals, No,

the conference even to the conference finals. They lost to the Lakers. Yeah. So my thing is, I'm not the biggest I wasn't the biggest fan of when I first heard about it, But Carmelo has done a lot for the Denver Nuggets and they were in the playoffs every year he was there. Yeah, so he has done he was a bucket, he has. He has done a lot for the Denver Nuggets. I think if he goes back on it, he'll we want to change some things, but you know, the thing to here nor there, But I think you have to.

I think if Joker would have knew who Caammelo Anthony was, he maybe he might not have picked up the number fifteen. But I think we're also getting to the point where these guys like I don't think, correct me if I'm wrong. The San Antonio Spurs had not retired Tim Duncan Jersey, not yet because he's still fresh. Yes, so someone a player wanted to pick up number twenty one fresh you ain't been gone, but what three four years?

Maybe gone? Ten years? Has he been going that already? They should have been retired Tim Duncan almost No about ten years because he played Lebron. He didn't retire his number. No, Yeah, sure, I don't think they retired his number. I don't. I'm not sure check on that. But if a player wanted to pick up number twenty one for San Antonio, they could, Why wouldn't that twenty sixteen eight years ago, When did they retire New Jersey? They did retire his jersey, Okay, they retired.

What about what about David Robertson. Robinson has been retired. I know what this jersey? I'm yeah, they were the Spurs retired Jersey's include um, David Robinson's fifty, George Gurvin, James Silas, Johnny Moore, Sean Elliott, Avery Johnson, and Bruce Bone Really okay, now here we go. What about Tony Parker, Mina Janobli, those guys number nine, number twenty. If an NBA player on this a antone Spurs won to pick up the number up they could, does that player deserve Diana Hana numbers left? I

mean, we gotta define what classifies the player's number to get retired? Player four team. Let me just ask you all this when it's all setting done. Does Johns get his number retired? Yes? Does Chris Middleton get his number retired? Yes? No? Yeah, okay, okay. Chris Middleton to the Bucks, was with Mandu was to the Spurs? Yes or no, I'll take that. Does Drew Holler they get his number retired? Yes,

Casey, they do because they brought a ring. Okay, Tony Parker, you say yes the middle, you say Yester, I might changed my thing. I'm gonna saying yes, all three of them should have ring. I mean retired Jersey because they brought a ring here first first time in fifty years. Okay, Tim Duncan, genoblely Parker? Are they not retired and David Robinson? And Robinson has retired David Robinson until Lukas retired, but Genoble

and Tony Parker not. So if I really, if I'm twenty one, I don't know who these guys are really like that because I'm the only word. I'm young. Number I want number twenty. Anybody gonna say nothing, they don't give it to me. Well, Joker knew who cocked Carmela was? No, he didn't. Joker can't more receives bro Yeah, I remember Joker just started playing basketball. I think they said in high school. They just realized he wanted to play basketball. So that's my that's my point.

Everybody knew who Carmelo was. Man um uh, Tony Parkers Jersey is retired. It is my new Jenoble Jersey is retired. How you go over that list? Well, that was a list that was just the Google list, like, these are the players that retired. We're looking for Tim Duckan wasn't looking for anyone else. So all those players jerseys are retired. Here's the thing. When the NBA retires twenty three world, I right, no one

will be able to wear twenty three. I believe it will come. Unfortunately, I think it'll come when when Jordan is no longer with us, because they wait to do stuff like that. But Jordan to basketball is what Wayne Gretzky was to hockey, right. Wayne gretzky jerseys hangs in every NHL state right because of what he did. But those are obvious. So I'm getting

to the point. The point is the Milwaukee Bucks won't retire Ray Allen, and that's okay because jann Is is the person that make the difference and brought the title wearing the number. So let yann Is half thirty four, a loon joker is going to be the one potentially to bring them their first title

in French. Get a vote. I don't think he does. Bro See, Big Dog was good for us, but then the Bucks at Big Dog was great for us, but the Bucks as a team was terrible with Big Dog average, besides the year we went to the conference finals and lost back in two thousand, big dog year. Besides the year of two thousand. You know what I'm saying. So I'm a mellow is dope, But Joker might say, you know what, you could have the fifteen retired, I've

moved to sixteen. Bron did it. Bron did it in LA when he left, he went from twenty three to six Miami because Jordan he couldn't wear twenty three. That is absolutely wrong. When Bron got to LA, I'm sorry, Miami, twenty three was retired and he could not wear twenty three. He could not wear twentye You know who acknowledge that, pat Riley. That's that's my pointed to Jordan in Miami. They're the first there and forty

five. They're the first team that retired Michael Jordan's number after the Bull, after the Bull, after he left. They're the first team, and they're they're actually the leading people. They're trying to get the NBA to follow suit to retire. The point is why if no one's there to acknowledge that that

it's not gonna get done. Yeah, that's my point. So my thing is like Joker, not know who at the time, not knowing who Carmelo Anthony is coming too, the league picking that number is not I don't faught him for that. So because keep in mind, I'm asking this question, like, if you if both these guys were retiring him in fifteen, are you cool with that? I'm fine with it. If they fined, I'm fine. But I don't think people should be mad if Joker says no,

because they keep in mind Joker's draft. Nobody expected Joker to be who Joker is. Nobody Joker went super late in um um the twenty fifteen drift, right super He was a forty first pick in the drive, so him not him not knowing who Carmelo was picking fifteen, somebody could have said, oh, no, Carmelo is an all time great, he can't have that number. Someone could have said that it was the forty first pick, that nobody knew who the heck he was. And my thing is this, So here's

the here's what Wikipedia says about retired numbers once a team is retired. Once the numbers retired, no future player from the NBA from the team may wear that that number on their uniform unless the player so honor permits it. Yeah, However, in many cases the number cannot be used at all, it can. Remember, Jordan got fined for bringing the twenty three out of retirement without permission. So if it can be a situation permission from though the NBA,

the NBA has to. So remember when Jordan first retired to twenty three and he brought it back out, he got fined and they had to unretire the number and then re retire when he left again. That's too much, that's too much. He seems like, what Yeah, I mean, that's saying with Lebron, if Lebron ever left the game the back Jersey retired, I'm saying, if he ever left the game, say Lebron retires at the end of the season, they're gonna instantly retire his numbers in La, Miami,

Cleveland and say he comes back next year. Hold up, say he comes back next year and he wants to wear six again. He can't just say give me my six. No, he has to go I'm gonna retire the six bunch of crap. But I'm fine, I'm fine if they don't, but try out to mellow for a spectacular career. One of the best jump shooters I think I've ever seen play the game. I'm glad he got his Olympic medals because he didn't win rings, but he is a three time

Olympico. Matter. Where does Mellow rank in your all time small forwards? Listen to me again, where does he rank all time? Put your small forward? Top five? Really? Top five? Yep? Okay, Um, this is when I actually have to marinate on because I don't really know. Um. Scotty before Lebron, Scotty was my favorite small forward and Scotty is still up there as one of my favorite smalls forwards. To spite you know what's going on, but you think about the NBA. Man have had

great small forwards, Bro, great small forwards. Um, so just think of it like this. You got like Kawhi, Leonard Lebron, Brand Hill Lebron, Kevin Durant, Julius, Irvin John Bird Bird John, have a check, Scott Wilkins. I'll say top ten. I'm happy you have to go with Keis because you got Katie. I'm gonna say top twenty, top ten, top twenty, top ten, Meller was bucket, bucket, top fifteen. I'm gonna Dominique will just a dunker. Top fifteen here, that's

what puts him over him. So this is this is what I'm gonna do this real quick, let me just read off of most don't do that because this is off the top of our head. Really time. We don't research here, heads up, all you NBA fans, we don't research. We research, but we do it on the spot. This is off the top of the this is off the top of the question. It's on the top of the dog the real quick, off the top of the door. Next

week we will bring it back. If he is your top fifteen or let's say you say let's say you say top fifteen, I mean fourteen players better that you think are better than Carmelo anthem. If you say top ten, I need nine. That's your question. We'll write it down. Think of this scenario, Tracy McGrady or Carmelo. Carmelo, they played two different positions. But he's a he's a shooting guard. He's really a small for. He was really a small for small, it's really a small for. He's

a shooting guy. So here, I give you one better. Keys, let's do this ze Keys Kawhi Leonard or Carmelo over Kawhi, Yes, Kesey, I'll go. I agree, Vince Carter, this is a shooting guard. He's just a small forward, a small forward where you from looking at the Paul Pierce or Carmelo, Carmelo Kesey. But no, next week we're gonna bring it back. I need fifteen or ten players better than him. We'll bring it back a list right here. So Carmelo probably will be my

top fifteen. He might could be my top eight, because remember I don't pick players I haven't seen play. So Julius Irving, this is your personal right. Julius Irvin wouldn't be in my top things because I have never seen him. But see, I like a lot of small forwards from back in the day. You gotta think I like Glenn Rice, I like Jamal mash Burn, I like Petro Stryakovic was a beast, like a bucket. But but none of the players you just named the map and art Bello that better

than Carmelo, grim Hill, not better than Melot. No. No, so next week we're gonna be We're gonna bring it back next week and we're gonna talk about we're gonna I want you to name ten or fifteen, wherever there is, wherever he lied. But I need amount big better than you Camerelo. I'm gonna just say this, the five that we know are better than Carmelo. Everything else is debatable. Lebron kd Larry Bird, Julius Irvin

and Scottie Pippett. Anything after that is debatable. For Carmelo up against everything after that is debatable. So even Dominique Wilkers Dominos to me, I questioned if he was a true shooting spa on four he didn't even make the top ten list from NBA writers, So is he really? Is he a shooting guard? Is he a shooting guar? I said yeah, because he didn't even make the all time he was a shooting guard, I mean a small

forward. It's crazy. But moving on the different speaking of the different nuggets of different nuggets. Completed the suite with the Los Angeles Lakers. Aaron Slaughter disagree with you here, TC. He said Dominique was more than a ducker. He was a bucket. Do you care to respond? Nobody said he wasn't a bucket. I'm just saying like he was more like he was more of a dunker. He was known for being a dunker. He wasn't. He wasn't known for being a killer. Yep, Meller was a killer with

the ball. Yeah yeah, Now ter typing the chat there, man, how long have you been watching basketball? I know you have a few years on us. No, No, I mean t say that. Thanks. Thanks. One of the things that CB talks about it next week. One of things to CB, back to it next week. No, you're not cutting me off here. We're gonna move on. One of the things that CB and old heads talk about is we haven't seen great NBA players. Right, what does it say he was? I know he was both, but

his primary was a shooting guard, right, was a shooting guard? Everybody knew Dominique as a shooting guard. Come on, Tray McGrady, but him too, him too, So speaking of the different nuggets. They complete the sweep of the Los Angeles Lakers on Monday, Nights one thirteen, one eleven. After the game, Lebron Jane suggested a retirement. Later on the week, sources close to him said he'll be back because it's true, keys in, he said. Sources nick close to him should retiring or not? Do

you know Lebron retiler? Yeah? No, Okay, just you heard it here. First, Lebron is not retiring this year. Um, so the Lakers prepare for the future with Lebron bring being second string or it should he be considered the number one option, and they need to surround a team around Lebron games. We're gonna start a local fan. So who do you bring in as number one? Then? I well, there's talks of Kyrie, the kind of talks of trading ad and getting a couple of picks and a

couple of people who can fulfill his spot. My knock up. Definitely not resigning Russell. What do you mean Russell? Who Angel? Oh, they're not gonna do it. They're not doing it for a max. I don't know if they're gonna do it for minimum the hundred million. What's it called? Somebody they told my what's called deserves a honey million? Freeze? No, he's about seventy seventy he's about sixty seventy one twenty No way one twenty

one break Jordan Pool. If Jordan Pool can pull one twenty Reese can pull one twenty h what do you say, hoo can up up your cousins? A kid? There you go. Well, Keis he's thinking, Man, I'm let me just go ahead and say this. We acknowledge Lebron as a right, don't hop on the boat just saying they respected at sixty. It's about fifteen million a year, four years. I mean, y'all gonna do

him like that, that's what y'all going to la? All right, continued I'm gonna say this, man, Lebron, it's great, all time great, second best player in my opinion, ever played the game. But you gotta move on. And the Lakers already don't have a future because they gave away a lot of draft picks. Right, that's not shocked. It's true. It's true you respect Lebron to come back and play and let Lebron do Lebron, but you didn't. You do need to plan for the future.

So here's the thing. When you don't trade Anthony Davis, So is he I'm going back to the question gonna trade Anthony Day? Is he number one or number two? As long as he plays the game, he's number one. What as long as he plays, he's the number one option on the team. As long as he plays the game, he's number one. Well, you see what happens when he's the number one, and it shouldn't be.

It should be the number one out. I do he should be a d um potentially Kyrie, but I'm not fully convinced that the Lakers are going to invest in Kyrie. A d is the number one option? What he's really the number one? He just doesn't show up every night. You're not the number one option. You are. You are good one. I'm supposed to be rich and famous, but I'm not. Two different things. We're talking about what Anthony and we're talking about what Anthony Davis is supposed to be,

but he's not. Because those last two possessions of the Lakers season, who had the ball? Lebron exactly because if we second though, if Lebron didn't have the ball, because when Lebron is in Cleveland, he could kick it to kyr and Kyrie, like watch the magic happen. You know how you did your boys, Steph. So it's one of them things where to help Lebron won that title. It's one of the things we're like, that's

what I'm talking about, dude. You say, Lebron, we love you here, we appreciate what you've done to the city, but we're gonna We're gonna see what we can do about as far as, like, you know, put some putting, you put some officers out there. Baba's about money and Lebron is a walking stimulus package. You have to build around Lebron as long as he's on the team. You have to. The Lakers knew that when they gave because you only got one more season with Lebron and then you

walk away? Did you walk away? So then what do you do with the team though, because what you're saying is what you're saying is this, We're gonna put all our right eggs in one basket and when it all goes to crap, we'll deal with it later. Uh. The Lakers have been known for that anyway. The Lakers have been known for that anyway. I mean the Los Angeles Lakers. You let Bron have his final year, which

will probably be his last. No, the year, I don't know, because he's already said that even though it's a goal for him to play with his son, he doesn't know that he has an end to play with his son. Well, he said that, and then after his Phillips has hurt for after getting after getting swept, his Philliws has hurt. His son also might go to college and enjoy it. Have we ever thought about that his

son might play two years of college? Maybe? Lakers, you you you give Lebron his final run to the best of your ability, but signing a player like Kyrie and a d you still build for the future. I mean you can do both. And like now, now, now the NBA has a situation where these you know, big payrolls make decisions. Yeah, I can't wait for Boston to pick between jay Len Brown and Jason Tatan because it ain't gonna be both. They can't. They can't. They can't somebody.

They can't. They can six hundred and eighteen million dollars for both of them. Bro, the cap is one hundred million, Cap is one hundred million, the Cat one hundred million. The cat next year is I think to say it might be less than that. It might be less than that. They probably they could get fit both. Now the rest of the team might be garbage garble edge. So but you gotta remember the Lakers right now,

the Lakers, Lebron is on the books for two years at least. This is his option year after next after next year, because he's said to make forty seven this coming up year and said to make fifty that year. Rather you think you're gonna opt out of that fifty? Yeah to the son. No, no, he's not playing with his son. I want cap is one thirty four. I'm not opted out of my fifty. He's playing with his son. Just told him. Bro Lebron is walking away from fifty million

dollars how much money? So you what you say? Okay, this is my thing. There his whole stuff. I want to play with months it was bsd Byes. It was his body. Yes, when he was saying that his body wasn't beat up, Lebron's body. Lebron is almost forty years old age, his body's probably eighty. His body is beat up. Now he should return. He should have walked into five. He should have walked in the press conference fifty five. Lebron is body, it's retirement age,

whatever it is. It's retirement age, it is. And Lebron should have walked in that conference and said, hey, guys, I'm calling it because obviously my body cannot handle it. But you call it for fifty million dollars. Yeah, my body was doing it. I don't who wants to roll in the wheelchair fifty. I got that money though, didn't he got too much money. He won't be wrong, but he don't got no injury to be a goal. He hasn't really had a lot of injuries like that over

his career. But now that he is getting injuries, it's slowing him down. Yeah, most definitely, blood. I got a good Lebron got a good twenty four minutes of basketball in him a game. And if you that's all you should. Anthony Davis need to step it up and command the team like they brought him to h to me, I'm you all gotta play for the future, and we know. But the Lakers had The Lakers had a very rough season. They had a roller coaster season. But but there is

hope at the end of the tunnel. But think of it like this. He put up MVP numbers in the playoffs with a torn ligament, and think of that. That's forty years old. I'm gonna give you one better, and he played forty something minutes a game. I'm gonna give you one better, Kesey. The Lakers went to the conference finals and nobody had them getting out to play in They did not they did. Nobody even expected to make the playoffs. The season started to be honest, you forgot. They went

off to an old and ten start. Yeah I remember that, but don't but they make it to the conference final. I was the only gonna push you the button. I'll push you there all the time. Lakers are terrible, horrible team. Yeah, and what did I do pushing that button? Now? I was playing Memphis. But I said it all year, though you said after the trade deadline, left the record show I picked the Leakers

to be Memphis. I started this all yea, the only one. I said this all year, all year, even when they do the like things just gonna get better. Watch you Russell once that guy with the hustle, everything was gonna And you know what, I hate that. You said it was gonna work with Russell. I hate that for Russell Westbrook. I thought it was. But then after ten games and I said, no, I hate I gotta trade him. And I kept saying it until they finally didn't.

Didn't. Look what happened. Well, I'm not gonna do you know, pull it up on you. I don't take your word for it. Um moving on the dude. Look, I didn't say it. I need that for the Bucks now, yo team the Milwaukee but I mean, I'm sorry. The Boston Celtics beat the Miami Heat one on four, one on

three and dramatic fashion with a buzzer beater tipping by Derek White. The Celtics are on the verge of making history by being the first team ever to come back down from a from being down three nothing in an NBA playoff series. Who do you have? I picked Boston last week. I told you Boston was gonna do this. I'm sticking with Boston. Boston makes history. Man, There's no way Miami wins this game in the Garden. In fact, they might get blown out. Jimmy Jimmy Butler then woke up sleeping giants.

Now that sleeping giant, unfortunately is not Jason Tatum. Oh. Jaylen Brown is due for a big game. Mark hold on, Marcus Smart is due for a big game. Because let's think about it. That ball is some Mark shot. It was in and out. It looked good. It was in and out, it looked barely. It was You know what I'm saying, I don't. I don't think Boston just wins tomorrow. I think they dominate tomorrow because they're due for a dominating game. They already had one,

because they already got because they already was counted out. So the pressure is on Miami. Pressure is on Miami. Miami has got to come out. Jimmy gotta come out and be uncle Uncle Jimmy. He gotta score fifty. He hasn't had a fifty un Jimmy Jordan. He hasn't had a forty point game against him. He had like thirty five to put another game up like that. Now. Yeah, it's like in a bubble too. It's like in the bubble heat huffing and puffing in like I can't do this to myself.

The Boston celticsh off the boat. The Boston Celtics will be the one in one hundred and fifty one. So you going Celtics. I'm going Celtics. You're going Celtics all day. The heat, the heat luck has ran Miami. Miami beat the Bucks. I'm definitely going Celtics too. I'm going Celtics too. So then let's talk about this then, because when we get back next week, I know what you're saying, what a friend say, don't talk about the finals one they they played Monday, I'm sorry, on

the first, then the game would be either that Monday Friday. So I want us to do a little We'll do a preview next week of the NBA Finals, even though they play Thursday. Yeah, because you can't can't preview. Let's just see one game. I just wants to see one game, see what we'll get the vibe, get the vibe and go from there. Congratulations to Joker, Captulations to the Denver Nuggets. I will say that I

didn't think they are going to be a number one contender. I won't say years for years to come because the West teams to get stacked, but this might be the year. Now, let's get to it. The Milwaukee Bucks. Before you get to a game two is actually Sunday, June four, So we'll have a chance to see one game on the first. Yeah, and then when we're back in the studio next Sunday, we can preview game too. Yeah. Okay, we'll make some picks then. But Bucks talk.

The Milwaukee Bucks are playing on hiring former Toronto Raptors assistant coach Adrian Griffin as their next head coach. What huddle before you down this black man? Oh? Should we talk about what you said? Oh Saturday, don't you want to talk about you know, whatever I say if you ever need a witness in court, dude, not call this? Why not whatever I say whenever I say to wherever I see in the group chat, whatever I say in person, I say this was microhon, I ain't got no shame my

game now, So before I doubt this? But what about what you say? For you getting man? Let's get ready to rumble? What what is this? What do you call? What? Where's that? Let me go round one round? What what is this saying about to you about the direction of the team rebuild? No, either Yannis is high on him? Well, the Bucks just using him as a fall guy if things don't go right next year. So two things I want to say to that. Two things I want to say that. Two things I want to say what Bro just

said. Reports are saying that Jannis was high on him, he gave the wink, but that report did not come out about Adrian Griffin into what Nick Nurse turned his din. But the report came out they want to have him first, and then the report came Nick Nurse was the guy, and Nick Nurse removed himself from consideration for the Bucks. Then they went with Adrian Griffin. I need to know why. I need to know why. I don't think. I don't think he thought he was getting a job in Milwaukee.

I think he wanted a better winning situation, Nick Nurse. I think he's going to think if that is it's Kade, though, it's it's Devin Booker. And no, no disrespect to Yannis, Phoenix was some coaching and a big man away from winning. To me, to me, this is my thing though, Like the only reason Phoenix is a better situation is because Kevin Durant and Devin book are locked in for a couple of years in their contracts. The Bucks are are starting to look like a very expensive franchise that can't

because of the new ABA it Abe Souse. While you're talking, a report literally just came out. Nick Nurse is deciding between the Sons and the Sixers. But my thing is this, My my thing is a better looking It's a Phoenix is a better looking situation on paper as far as money goes. So my thing is you said nothing. Nope, we are said that on the air. Go ahead, keep going, your wife faults. I'm sorry, act like he didn't hear, but then say that right right, See

that's what we're talking about. Anyways. My thing is this hag. This guy has no coaching experience, no coaching experience, He has no head coaching experience. So when you talk about that, like this team is built to win right now? Who the Bucks? We have a little we have a few tweaks to make. No, we have a few tweaks to make. Let's not forget what we I gotta bring you back. I know what you said, what you said to what we are old team. No, let's

bring it back because now we geeked again. Let's not get to above ourselves. Let's not forget this. Did Milwaukee Bucks have to prove to us that they can win and be competitive? We all said that, Let's not forget that. Come on, Brome said, yes, you did. I know when I said this is when I said it was this. I'm not I'm after the season. I'm not saying we gonna win it at all after the

season. I'm not saying I'm not gun hole on championship. But I also said this team may need to make a small a couple a couple of tweaks and we can be right where we lasted, where we were before, and you think about the whole Eastern Conference, James Harden Crowley gonna be I just

think we were bad coaching away from being where we needed to be. Okay, So when you say that, when you say stuff like that, and then you bring in a rookie coach because he's a rookie head coach, but you wouldn't say rookie because he assistant coach does a lot of the jobs he was head coach. He was assistant head coach actually, but it feels like I can't want to I can't get the guy I want, So I'm gonna grab this guy who has some of the same philosophy. Oh yeah, I

don't think that's it. Well, that's why it got had the same position. They took it. They were like, well, we can't we had to fire this guy, so let's take the next guy behind him and see if we can make see what we can do, what to do, And we made Bootenhole just so attractive to people. Was because he was from that pop tree and because he had proven as a head coach that he can win, like he had the Atlanta team that was like if it wasn't for Lebron

Jay, they probably would have won a title. So like, that's what I'm like, That's why I'm really curious of why they picked him. I'm say I'm also cured why they picked him, as I'm curious about why Nick Nurse is like Noah, they say for me, Yeah, because Nick, if you think the Bucks passed on Nick Nurse, I got a blank check for you. Nick Nurse was the most coach in the demand. Every team wanted him, including Milwa't I'm pretty sure Yan is one of the people you

know, you don't know that. And then on top of that, you know who did so they wanted him, Uh, Jimmy Butler, Jimmy Buck, not Jimmy I'm sorry Drew Holiday. Drew Holiday was like, um, he doesn't come off as like the nicest person. Yeah, yeah, but he don't need to be. He doesn't need to be to be a good coach, which is true. Congratulations to Adrian Griffin. And all we could do is give him a chance. I'm cheering for everybody black. You know

what I'm saying. I want to I'm glad we have more black head coaches. But bro, you are in a town where they are going to let me choose my words. Careful. He got to come in here and deliver because they're gonna be calling full his butt quick and the Bucks better not. You know, the Bucks. Last I heard, they're negotiating terms. Bucks don't give him more than a two or three year deal because they gave Bud a five year deal. They didn't renew him. Didn't they know? They

gave him a three year deal. Then they gave him a five year deal. So now they have to pay Bug. But one year into fourty, they owe him four years of money, right, you know, two years when don't we win the title years ago? Okay, so he's two years orto a five year deal. Bucks can't hire another coach and get rid of him in two years because they don't have two coaches on the coach their path.

So the Bucks are either making a long term investment into this coach or they're saying, we're gonna give you two years to see how it does. Because Yanni's contract ends win in two years. I think it's gonna drew for to retire. I think it's screens retired, man, I'm sorry, I think it screens rebuilt. I really do. I hope I'm wrong, but I think it's screens rebuild, and I don't know if this is the case. If this is, Milwaukee does not let Yanna's walk. They'll do whatever

he do, they do whatever you gotta do, keep it. We can keep your honest and still be losing. No, could you get some players? Can't you? Yeah? Can't you? Yeah? Can't you? Yeah? Milwaukee, Milwaukee, we got players who we need to. It's not like coming to la and or New York. It's a mind. It's a mentality, like I'm not gonna be in these streets. I'm not gonna get a lot of press, but I might be winning, so press, You're just not gonna be in a press. That's what I made my press by

like national press. Speaking uh, speaking of I don't expect the Bucks to have as much pressure next year. We didn't win. Yannis could only do so much. Don't get it twisted. We are, but remember last year we had Christmas Day games. We lost in the first round. Bro, I don't think we get one. I don't think we get one. Yea. I hope we do. Y'all is still a pool. It won't be a home game, but probably won't be at home. You know what I'm saying, It probably won't be home. Last we had MLK GAG, we

have Valentine's Day Game, we had a lot of major games. But I hope Adrian Griffin does well. He's a brother. Congratulations, h I hope you're not the pawn. But um, I'll be interested to see if he's a pawn or not. Win it out pass it to nis. Now here's the other part. Does he keep the buck staff, does he keep being baker? Does he keep those coaches? Or does he hire his own team? Time? What? Hell? So, how y'all feeling about to hire? Though? Which if if you were too rated one to ten team being

the highest wont be the lowest. How are you feeling too? Five four four? I'm just well, I'm gonna say this. I'm glad we didn't get Doc Rivers, so this is better than Doc. Why you don't like? What is it about Doc? You don't like? Doctor doesn't win the big ones? Bro? I feel like this year he doesn't win the big

This year his players gave up on them. Every year his players give up on them as though as that a well, I won't say every year because he's also being considered for Phoenix. I won't say his players give up on him every year, but I think this year his players gave up on them. Um. I think that. My thing is like, why not giving Mark Jackson a shot? If you're gonna go this right, That's what I'm thinking. That's where I'm at with it, Like, why not give him

a shot? If you're gonna give somebody a shot, why not give it to Mark Jackson? If the curse, why not give it to Kenny Atkinson? He was considered the Bucks interview like nine coaches. They interviewed nine coaches, was down to three. Nick Nurse pulled himself out. It was Kenny Atkinson in between him and Adrian. I think that's why he pulled out. He was like, I gotta compete with nine people. Oh way, I should be compete with nine people. He sounds like that aer Gang type of

person. You know what I mean? Well, you gotta think about it, man. He won to title his first year one and you ain't done none since. Dude. Date the Raptors were good every year but last season, Na, yeah, they were don't cut it clearly, but bug got let go good. Don't get you titles? Bug, got let go with the best records. You ain't you ain't lying, Bud went one to five.

And and my thing is just like with let's say with with with with Darvin Ham, Darvin hamment like, well, I'm not a head coach that ever had that position before, but I've coached games where the coach couldn't you know, coach. So I've coached some games players are familiar with me. And let's also be reminded, let's be reminded, bro head coaching. Assistant coaching doesn't lead to greg head coaching. Look at uh, what's that boy,

Luke Walton, that man Luke Walton. Yeah, he coached when Steve Kerr was out, but he coached to Steph dre Clay during and went to Sack and they sucked. It's true. And and he's back being an assistant coach now LA. He was in LA and they sucked and went to Sack and they sucked. So it doesn't always translate to head coaching. Yeah.
