Let's draft our own teams. Jack, hold On, hold on, hold on, hold on, Who's who was controlling? Come on, bro, I'm reading he got the gym on the side over there here, and I was I would knew that. That's why I was going, do go bear, please, big diplomat. But I tell you can't with them. Yeah, I saw, I'm throwing the sign language over there on the street. I'm like, where is the mouse movie? The mouse movie?
What's burning? All Star edition? Jack? Man, it's it's it's it's a fun packed a couple of weeks right now because it's the super Bowl. Then we got All Star. But man, we're talking about the NBA today, so let's right to it. All Star teams were selected by Lebron and k D. Let's take a look at these teams. First, for Team Lebron, the starters Jannis, Steph Damar, the Joker. The reserves are he picked Luca, Darius Garland, CP, Jimmy Butler, Donovan Mitchell, Fred Van Fleet and the last picking the
draft James Harden. Let's talk about that team real quick. First of all, let's talk about how they did him on T and t UH the other day. Oh yeah, James the last I mean, yeah, it is funny because this is the second time he's been in that situation. Like we were talking about earlier. You know what I'm saying, you quit on your team twice. You know what I'm saying, like faking the injury and all that. Like there's nobody in in the history of the NBA was around basketball
side ever fake the injury. You know what I'm saying, We played with injuries, you know what I mean. At the same time, the position he's in, he's you know, he's getting one of the biggest contracts and guys are relying on him to be a big star, a big part of the team. You gotta be there every day, Bro, you can't be in consistent like that, you know what I'm saying. And teams just the second team that's dealt with that, you know what I mean. And I just you know, I wish me the best because I'm still
a fan. He's a great score, But that jacket on your back is not a good one, you know what I'm saying. Going on the third time, Yeah, I mean I'm all four plow obviously, we're all four player empowerment. But I just feel like you know he wanted to leave and again or four playing player empowerment. But the way you go about it, you know, I mean, if you think of because he's one of the greatest scores
these games, I'm seeing, you think about anyone else. You think about Alan Iverson, you think about Kobe Bryant, you think about the Kevin Durant, you think about a Steph Curry. None of these guys, if they're in that situation played out. You know, we've seen Kadie leave, We've seen Lebron leave, but these motherfucker's are bust in their ass every single
night on the court. Until that happened, I thought, like I was looking at the clip, like, yo, they threw him under the bus, ran it over, then backed him up. But then I'm thinking, like, you put that on yourself, bro, you know, because you've quit on your last two teams. But you know what that said. We're wishing well and and and Philly, and we'll get to that later. So thoughts on le Bron's team. You gotta solid team, man.
I just think you know, he got a few players that can just pull that out for themselves, and you got the the dynamic of stuff in your honest and Braun Uh you know what I man, I mean that that's enough right there, because you know, if the game is just having fun the first two or three and
the fourth quarter, you got those three guys. You know I'll do these guys can take over one of the most dominant the game, one of the best uh And I said the most dominant uh ever, but the most dominant player we've seen right nine honest, the best shooter Evan Steph and you know Lebron is one of the best of all times. So them three in the fourth quarter on the team she had. Ron did a great job with his draft and you forgot I mean the mid range, the sash and the Marks having a great
year and then last year's MVP Joker. You know all them does could do whatever they want out there. So coming off the bench with Luca, you know CP always bust his ass and player in uh in in All Star games. So it'll be interesting. Um, Team Durant starting with MBI, Marant, Tatum, Trey Young and Wiggins as starters because you know Katie is out. Let's talk about his reserves.
Booker love It Towns, Levine Murray, first time All Star, Middleton LaMelo Ball, first time All Star and that size in the middle, Katie said he needed in Rudy Gobert pause. I like I like this team because it's young. You know what I mean. He has a young athletic team. You know, these guys are gonna be This is gonna be the fun team to watch. You know, you got LaMelo, you know what I'm saying. You got Marvy, you got Levigne, you got Towns, then you got the starters with Tatum,
you got Marette, John Moran. It's gonna this is gonna be it's coming out party. He was when he when he had his n v P at arts the game. I think John Murraik will come out with that type of attitude. So that team is gonna be exciting to see and they can get out with the young with the youth and the athleticists they have, they can blow the boat, blow the East out if they get out to early year early with that young team. So with
that said, who's got the better team? With that said, with me, I'm going with the veterans, the more solid team. I'm going with Lebron. I mean, you just think, like I said, you you go with that lineup. In the fourth quarter with step at the point, themar at the two, Braun at the three, Yannis at the four, and Yoker at the five. I think that team can beat anybody in the fourth quarter. So I think I'm gonna go
with that. Man. I mean, I want to go with that team too, but since you're going with him, I gotta go. Okay, I'm gonna go with the other team. You who are you going? Fourth quarter? Last to my fourth quarter lineup is Booker, Marant, Tatum, Embid and someone who's gonna get me a bucket Middleton and play some defense? What Janice Braun and Yoki you go? You gotta be gonna post up. We're gonna man all boards, We're just dropping it and pay Where are they going to really
go for the boards? Though? Yeah, okay, yeah, I'm your team. Then last two minutes, it's winning time. Well, we see what they got. Let's draft our own teams. Jack Man, first pick, how are we gonna do? A? Rock Pepper says, see, yuh first pick in the draft. So Katie is out right, so we can't pick k d Alright, my first pick in the All Star Draft is gonna be just because I know he's gonna play as asshof John Morant. All right, My first pick is Brown. My second pick is Steph.
My second pick is do you need a shot clock? It's crazy, right, it's just hard. Okay, I'm sorry. My second pick isn't beat. Oh, good pick, but I'm glad you didn't take the Greek freeing. That's my third pick. My third pick is Jason Taton. My next pick, good call. I'm gonna go the Joker because you gotta beat. I need a big body out there. My fourth pick Luca Dontechi. A little good call. So I got a jos Steph. I'm small there, but then I got the Greek and
the joker who's playing in the middle of that. Give me it's just off the way he's playing right now. Give me Buck. That's my starting five. To stop. To finish on my starting five, I'm going Jimmy Butler some defense. Hey, that's that's good. That's some ship right there. My rant staph Reek freak joker book. You got bron Mbi, Tatum, Luca, and Jimmy Butler reserves. Let me go with LaMelo. Good pick. I gotta counter that with Trey Young. Give me Darius Garland.
I'm on that youth movement right now. At this point, I think it's I have to go with him, and then he's I don't know if he's still an I'm gonna go with the mart Rosy good call. Let me go with my U C. L A Brother Zach Lavine my pick. I'm gonna call Anthony Towns like that. I want to get CP, but I'm already kind of small, so I gotta get somebody big damn cat was a good pick. Yeah, I mess. I'm just gonna have to get some well with Katie say, I need some something.
Hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on, school is controller? Come on, bro, I'm reading, but you got your gym on the side over there, help and you bro stop? I was I would knew that. That's why I was going Doc go Beart please, big diplomat boy, I tell you can't win with him. Yeah. I saw him throwing the sign language over there on the screen. I'm like, what's the mouse movie? The mouse movie? All right? With my next pick, I'm gonna go with Chris Middleton. M
M so, who's left we have ship. I'm gonna go with James Harden because he's healthy. Now right, all right, yeah, give him James Harden. I'm gonna go with the young boy, Yante Murray. I like that, CP, my bast CP. I don't mean to pick you this late, bro, but you I know you were worried about winning instead of this bullshit. Give me Wiggy Andrew Wiggis. So yeah, I'm gonna take with my uh last pick. I'm gonna take uh uh my light skinned brother Fred and that leads me with
spider Man Donovan Mitchell. Imagine him being the last pick. No, that's crazy, that's crazy. Okay, So Cam, can I ask you a question? Yeah, I want you to give me. You're starting five and your and your and your two selves, so give me my first seven eight rotations. Give me eight rotations. You want to give me an eight man rotation. So my starting point guard is Job, My two is Steph, My three is Booker, Greek Freak is my four, and Joker is my five. Off the bench, I'm going with LaMelo.
He's first off the bench. Okay. Garland, Okay, I ain't got no size. Fuck hello and Garlands your your rotation okay? And CP, yeah, yeah, we little. So you're gonna have to play defense. Against I'm starting with Luke at the point, Jimmy but at the two to g to shoot guards, take them at the three, Braun at the four, and then beat at the five. My rotation. It's gonna job. It's gonna be uh town straight young and de ros So it's gonna be interesting debate. Y'all tell us who
you think has a better line up? Yeah, we don't have to see about it. Good job, bro so Jack. We got a couple of first timers, well deserving young players who are making their first time All Star parents, Um LaMelo Ball, John Morett, Dijon T. Murray and Andrew Wiggins. Who are you most excited to see or whatever you want to say about any of Yeah, I just think it's the two that it's just too that I'm really excited to see and happy they get an opportunity to that.
You know, spoken to a couple of times, John Morett Deyonta Murray, two solid young brothers. Man. They played the game hard, They love a game hard. They both deserved to be him man. So I want to see, um what they're gonna do their first times in All Star games. You know, Deonta Murray had like gives me some points in that Jamal karst Man remember that, Yeah, he went crazy. So was only seventeen when that ship happened. I was there.
I was like, Yo, who is this young motherfucker who's killing He's averaging nineteen nine and nine in the NBA. He comes up in that style of play, you know what I mean, So it'll be good to see what he's gonna kill. It definitely happened. I'm happy for all these guys. First and foremost, I just think Lamello is a superstar. Big fan of him. I love just the energy he's brought to Charlotte into the game. Barrant, Huge fan of Brant. I mean, he's a dog, a superstar
that plays balls to the wall every night. I'm probably happiest for Andrew Wiggins because former number one pick has kind of had a solid career but just a bumpy road living up to the expectation of a number one pick. And I was someone who didn't really think he fit initially in Golden State. But then when I thought the culture that's gonna be around him and form him and have him believe the best of him and you know, to make him the best player, he could be mentally, Um,
it all made sense, you know. So for him to finally be an All Star on that team, he's gonna be a big part of them in the playoffs. So really happy for Andrew Williams. Next up, dunk contest. A lot of young legs. Obie Topping from the Knicks, Jalen Green from the Rockets, Cold Anthony from the Magic want to kind of Anderson from the Warriors? What are you liking? I've seen Cod Anthony do some ship because I know him o'kaill graduate. I've seen him in the AI game,
you know, around the time. I've seen him do some ship six three yeah, six four or six three runaa and uh, you know he comes from NBA stock just pops um. But Jan Green was a different type of trampoline bars. I just don't see nobody beating him. Bro. I've been seeing videos and this kid do dunks and games that I couldn't do on arcade games. He did, so I think he put it off. Agree. I agree? I think Jay the Green is the one for me. Who would be your sleeper if we both have Jayalen,
who's your sleeper? I think my sleeper is one to kindo okay, and a lot of you don't even know about it. You gotta know the Wars and no basketball to really know this kid. Because he plays well for him, has been playing well for him. You gotta really watch the Wars and see his athleticism. So I like top of him. He's doing under theneath layer East Bay Funk dunks in the game, which is dope. But I think
I'm gonna take co Anthony. It looks so impressive because he's a little bit smaller, he'd be really getting up and doing some ships. He next up the three point contest. We got Fred VanVleet, Desmond Bane, Luke Kannard, Zach Levine, c J McCullum, Patty Mills, kar Anthony Towns, Trey Young. I think I already know who you got, But who you got, who's give me? Give me your top three. My top three is Van Bleet, Patty Mills, and Trey young That's hard to be The winner that I have
winning is Patty Mills. Okay, I'm gonna throw a wrench in there and throw Luke Canard in there. Lefty playing really confident with the Clippers. I feel Trey Younger win too. But my leapra is gonna be Luke Arnard. Next step on the Radar presented you by DraftKings Jack. The trade deadline came and went a lot of activity, some big names moved. UM. Let's look at odds on of winning it post all Star. Now that these moves have been made, people can obviously still be in the buyout market, but
the trade deadline is up. So new odds are Nets are favored plus three seventy, So words and Sons are the same odds plus four bucks six or the same thing at plus seven hundred in the dark horse the Los Angeles Lakers at plus twenty five hundred. You were someone that still believes strongly in the Lakers, and I'm not mad at that. So you see, do you see a Lakers Nets finals? I still do Um. I'm not one of those people that that get into the moment
of things. Experience is the best teaching, and I know what the what what rosters that both of these teams have, and I know how they can be it together in
time for the playoffs. You know what I'm saying with with with health on each team side, you know what I'm saying with the Lakers and with the Nets with the Nets adding drumming and Ben Simmons dog people are really sleeping on that seth Curry sleeping on that because those two guys that play hard and really love the game, and sometimes playing hard and respecting the game helps your team more than somebody with all the talent in the world. Trust me, you'll see. I'm really confident the Nets. I
think they won the trade. I think the depth they added um is really going to help them. UM. I feel more confident them winning the East than I do the Lakers winning the West. I still would love to see the Lakers pull it off, but I just feel like Golden State and Phoenix is gonna be too much. I feel like Golden State of Phoenix is gonna be who's coming out of the West, and if if both teams are healthy on taking Golden State coming out the West, so I would see a Nets Warriors and you've got
Nets Lakers. But I'll be happy with any of them. So don't mean walking that bitch too. I like them through Filly in It. I like them, So we'll see. UM. Here's a short teaser of a very young talented Our Brothers stopped by the show Core Day Birds view and stores now online now people aren't even in stores no more. Right online, Yo, what I'm talking like, we're about to go to now, best body gonna get some c d s. Check this teaser out. Yeah, he's one of the greatest
artists of all time. Just like a matter of fact, I funny enough, man, I met you just a couple of days ago. I met him a couple of times before, but it was just on some tapping up moving ship. But I actually got to meet him and have like a a light conversation with him to day my album dropped. So the night that my album dropped, shout out Dave Chappelle. We put up on y compound and Dave Chappelle actually, um, he introduced me to a and we got to have
just you know, small conversation. I got to play some music. He played me some unreleased music, and it was just like I got to tell him, like, Yo're like you probably like I know you hit this ship from everybody nigga, but now I ain't even gonna lead as motherfucker. And just because how I used to be like when I'm around like people I idolized when I first met him, I try to just be not too cool for school, but try not to be like super fans out because
you know you still we are still peers. These are my idols at the end of the day. But I never wanted to be you know, like I sund from Maryland. So the way we look at it, like, man, you're on Dick too much, you know what I'm saying. Like where I come from, it's like now I don't ever be on dick or don't be too cool. So I'm meeting like people that I idolized. I never asked for no pick you know, I never pulled a phone out, you know, dap them up. It's a love We have
a dope convo. It's always like mutual respect. But I was just like, man, like, when I start meeting like certain idols, I just gotta tell them what they mean because like you just never and honestly, Kobe when when Kobe passed, you know, because I got to meet Kobe a couple of times, and it sucks that I never got to tell him, like really what he meant to me, you know what I'm saying, Like how big I used to play two k and just try to score eighty
points in five minute quarters with this nigga like when I'm bored, That's that's literally what I would do, just like just play with Kobe, try to score eighty points in five minute quarters with him. And Um. I said that to say, I got to tell you, like yo, like you are my biggest influence. And I say that, I said, whenever I'm in an interview or whenever I'm talking, I was like, I tell nigga's like, yo, Kanye West is like my biggest influence. He's like, yeah, you better
say that ship. He was like, yeah, you better tell him that ship. But I say that to say, when I meet these just gotta get people their flowers. Honestly, Yeah, we're big on that for real, alright, Jack closing thoughts. Obviously, the biggest trade of the trade deadline was the Harden for Simmons. Those players alone who will have a bigger impact on their team. Ben Simmons by far, he's dying to get back on the court. He's dying to be in a position where you can play. He ain't going far.
You're gonna write up the stream broken with an hour or two ride from Philly. It's gonna be great for him. He's gonna be with guys that's gonna embrace him. He's gonna be in a position where he can push the ball uh and play on the ball UH and also do what he do best, rebound, play defense, and make plays with great scores. Like I said, having a guy that's justice Towns has been Simmons that play hard all
the time. It's always better than a start with all the time in the world that don't give behind a temper cent any time. I agree, But James wants to play now like he wants to play with it, so we know what he's capable of when he wants to play. So that's why I'm gonna say there. But I think this is a really good situation, Like people have forgot how good Ben Simmons that you can say what he wants about his that's a hell of a first team All Defense, All Star of a player, and like you said,
young and he plays hard. I love that ship. You can say what you want about James Harden's antics. Wo. When that motherfucker wants to play, he's a killer. So just that to me, that is the best two men duel in the game and beating hardened, both healthy, both wanting to play uh man Philly is gonna be scary too. But I really think both these guys are really going
to impact their team and beneficial way. You can catch what's burning every week on Showtime Basketball YouTube and on Twitter, Instagram, and TikTok and Show Basketball. Let's see you all next week, m hm
