who ladies basketball and men's basketball as because the Lakers
did what I knew they were gonna be doing. He's
the last senior to be taking number one overall selected

(06:04):
by the New Jersey Nets way back when in two
thousand the six nine and Forster from Cincinnati by way
of Dallas, Texas. Here he us Ladies and Gentlemen. Six
foot nine Kenyon Martin Senior, K Park. What are you
doing with you, hunh Man.

Speaker 3 (06:21):
I'm good. I'm good, bro, Thanks for joining us? No
from O child? What up, Mike? Let's jump right into
a k Mark.

Speaker 2 (06:28):
We saw the Lakers go on the road and they
did a demolition job on what many believe are the
one of the two best teams in all of basketball.
Shay's gonna win the MVP. But the Lakers went in
and they took them apart. They really never trailed in
the game. They got the lead and they dominated them,
ended up beating them by twenty six. Luca was sensational today.
He had thirty plus eighteen and plus minus, Austin Reeves

(06:51):
twenty plus fourteen plus minus. Lebron chipped then with nineteen
plus seven plus minus. Really had eleven, But they got
great production off the being Daurri and Phinnis Smith fourteen points,
gave Vincent twelve points, with a lot of guys chipping in.

Speaker 3 (07:06):
They cleaned them up on the glass. They did a
great job.

Speaker 2 (07:09):
I think the best thing they did today, k Mark
is they kept shay Ass off the free throw line.

Speaker 3 (07:14):
And if you can do that, because.

Speaker 2 (07:15):
You know he gonna normally get to the free throw line,
bout seen fifteen times a game.

Speaker 3 (07:19):
But I thought they dominated this game.

Speaker 2 (07:20):
What did you like about what you saw from the
Lakers today?

Speaker 5 (07:25):
They just used the experience, man, young team early on
this early Sunday caught them young boys. Man. Some of
them boys went out last night, man, and they had
know the importance of the game. They already been saying,
got the West Sunday. They belt so they're like, hey, man,
we can forward.

Speaker 3 (07:42):
There's some bang. No legers did there to do. They
came in and.

Speaker 5 (07:46):
They put belt to them. You know what I'm saying,
like they should have they need this win? Are they
fighting for something? To Oklahoma said already already locked in, man.
So I think it meant more to the Lakers who
come in and play this way than they did for
Plum City.

Speaker 3 (08:01):
Are you surprised at the margin of victory that the Lakers?

Speaker 2 (08:04):
Okay, Lakers might have win you said, all that things
being true, Okay, okay, see, probably not taking the game
as serious as they normally would. That is an early
early game for them. They don't play very many games.
What time is that, I'd be probably two thirty that time,
So they don't play very many games like that. They
either play, you know, four thirty, or they play the
late Lake games, being on the West coast. But are

(08:26):
you surprised by how well the Lakers played, considering this
might be at some point in time, this might be
a matchup in the playoffs.

Speaker 5 (08:35):
All right, it listened, Man, I ain't riding with your
Lakers like you are.

Speaker 3 (08:38):
I know what you're trying to do. All that, if
you don't watch the show, dangy man with me.

Speaker 5 (08:42):
Man, I've been looking at the convents, Man, Lakers and
five all that. Hey, I ain't listen man right now.
They're gonna have to prove it to me, but we'll
see you say, hey, y'all Kmart They said, yeah, I
wouldn't listen. I would not want to play the Lakers
in the first round if I was any team in

(09:04):
the West. What I'm saying just because of the simple
fact they have two game changers and bron and Lucas
not taking anything off them, guys play, But I want
to see who they match up with the first round.

Speaker 3 (09:14):
That's that's key to me.

Speaker 5 (09:16):
You know, if if they mess around and the Nuggets
slide to four or five and down in four or
five on good it ain't looking too good man.

Speaker 3 (09:26):
So it could be anybody.

Speaker 2 (09:28):
It could be the Nuggets, it could be Golden State,
or it could be the Clippers, because the Clippers look
really good as of late, so it could be either
one of those.

Speaker 3 (09:38):
The Nuggets, the Warriors of the Clippers. Who do you
think is the best matchup?

Speaker 5 (09:43):
Who do you think the Lugget the Lakers least want
to face, and who do you think says, Okay, this
is a nice matchup for us. I think they would
want to face the Clippers. Oh yeah, I would stay
away from them.

Speaker 3 (09:55):
By all costs. I follows them. I really, I really
would stay away from them.

Speaker 5 (10:00):
It's been proven when it's time and time on the line,
they can't beat them, so I would I would stay
away from them no matter who y'all had Anthony Davis,
who's the hell of a defender. He couldn't do with
the cold. So I would stay I would stay away
from the diner Nuggets.

Speaker 3 (10:16):
At all costs, so k Mart.

Speaker 1 (10:19):
Even though the Lakers have been hot lately, you know,
they got the momentum going to the playing going into
the playoffs. Whatever it be, just so happening hypothelics speaking,
they do get the Nuggets. So you think the Lakers
don't stand a chance at all if they have Denver
in the first round, ain't no chance at all.

Speaker 5 (10:33):
No, I've been me and Gil been going back and
forth about this for weeks now, since the Luca trade.
We've been going back and forth about this specific topic.
And I'm not rolling. He's Luca the equalized it to
the Colt. No, he's not.

Speaker 3 (10:49):
I forgure what.

Speaker 5 (10:50):
There's no equalizer to the col in the national basketball
asso jation. Okay, what you're to do? This is this
is why I disagree with you. I believe they can
let lucul get becouse. Excuse me, let Nicola.

Speaker 2 (11:02):
Nicola right now has thirty thirty seven, thirteen and eleven
and they're down ten, So you can give him the
problem that the Lakers were having. Yoak was getting his,
but they were letting Murray get thirty. They were letting
Michael Porter Junior get twenty five. That is where you
run into the problem, Nicola. It doesn't matter. You could
have Anthony David, you could have Joel Embiid, whoever you

(11:24):
feel is a defensive center. Obviously those guys are great
two way players.

Speaker 3 (11:28):
You can give that.

Speaker 2 (11:29):
You can give him his forty fifteen and fifteen. But
what you can allow are the others, and that's what
beat the Lakers. You look at Jamar murray numbers against
the Lakers. He's an All Star, He's an All NBA
player when he plays the Lakers.

Speaker 5 (11:42):
K bar Yeah, absolute, So y'all she want to stay
away fro him at all costs because he's still at
there a hold over. You know, he's still played for
the Nuggets, and Michael Porter still plays for the Nuggets,
and a Lord still play for the Nuggets.

Speaker 2 (11:53):
So who he plays good against the Nuggets. But this
is what I got, This is what we got now
you think about it right now. Over the last two weeks,
our third best playoffs have been one of the best
players in the NBA history. Now, Luca gonna give you
what he gonna give you. You know that, I know
that Austin Reeves should win Most Improved. There ain't very
many third options better than Offster Reeves. Now let them

(12:15):
know and behold. So who are your two best players?
So which one gonna grab Luca, which one gonna grab
Offston Reeves, and which one gonna do something with Go James,
I'm just waiting for you.

Speaker 3 (12:25):
You a defensive specialist putting on Luca. Listen, man, we're
gonna put the way on God that going.

Speaker 5 (12:32):
Y'all can't guard up, so it don't back and listen
Luca what we did, because listen one, y'all gonna have
to put some non shoes out there. Dordan Phinnis Smith,
I'm not rolling right now. D You got to play
Van Dough van dok and his ass with both hands.

Speaker 3 (12:49):
Defense.

Speaker 5 (12:50):
That's all we needed to do. Leave him open. We're
gonna double Luca, double Brown, gonna make them other guys
make plays. Austin Reeves can't carry all in the playoffs season,
you saw it they do. That's a regular season, not
in the playoffs.

Speaker 3 (13:04):
Man.

Speaker 5 (13:04):
Now, when against Memphis he got horns when he got
them baby horns against Memphis. Now, when you're the third option, man,
like you got to report as a third option. It's
a lot different the playoffs series. But they're gonna make
that for it through something being comfortable doing out there. Yeah,
like dropping thirty five on y'all. We ain't dropping thirty five.

(13:26):
But he'll get it. Okay, everybody said they're gonna do
they're gonna have to average it. I don't think he
was doing that. Oh, we don't need to average that.
We just need to average what he averaged, average what
they averaging.

Speaker 3 (13:41):
The regular season ain't gonna be another.

Speaker 1 (13:46):
Hey kmart, look at looking at the landscape of the
playoffs right now, where the seating is right now, and
looking at the table. Who is a playoff super squad
that can surprise everybody and make it all the way
to the conference finals somebody nobody talking about. But they're
playing well enough, if they're getting to playing or they
getting the playoffs in general, they got a chance to

(14:07):
surprise somebody and get.

Speaker 3 (14:07):
To the final. Golden State Warriors Stevens Finals at that
Golden State Warriors like they yeah, I'm the way they playing. Man,
they got some equalizer that people not thinking about.

Speaker 5 (14:20):
They some pieces that they haven't had before, right right,
the kid Quinn Post like a big like they need
that where they can they can go big, they can
play small, they can they can play Meeting like they
can play Draymond at the five, Comedian at the four.

Speaker 3 (14:36):
You can play that.

Speaker 5 (14:36):
Well, you can play big, you can play Draymond Camiga
and Post, you can play Trace Jackson that. So there's
different lineups that you can go with. Man if jefs
skis playing out his mind right now, So yes, I wouldn't.
I would not want to play them the way I'm
saying away Wardale out there playing and they got them
boys believe it, and they didn't throw Jimmy in there.

(14:57):
And his and his approach to the game is is
infectious to the locker room. So he challenges guys in
a way that Draymund has always had to be that voice,
and at times it can get old. So now when
you got a new voice in the locker room that's
preaching the same thing, and that's been and that's took

(15:17):
lesser talented teams to two finals. Right, they can be
scary man with the same coaching with Steve curse and
it could be scared. I ain't saying it, but it
could be scared. Can you see that, K Martin?

Speaker 3 (15:31):
Yeah, I see your hand. I know you.

Speaker 5 (15:34):
I know you used to catch I know you used
to catch fastest with him. I don't know what the
rest of it means. Hey, Steph Curry, Curry got Curry chicken.
It don't matter bligger than this man. And listen, you're
right Curry, go absolutely, Hey, trust shut out. But the Shade, Look,

(15:58):
I think Shade should, Shae should win the MVP.

Speaker 2 (16:03):
No, he's not the best player at all, not to me.
Now you I'm gonna I wanna hear what you have
to say. I think based on what he's done his
team's record. I think he had his seventy first game
where he scored at least twenty points consecution, which is
the which is one of the longest streaks in NBA history.
What he's been able to do, how he's been able
to lead this team. I think he's first or second

(16:24):
in steels. He's shooting a very high percentage for a guard.
Normally guards that averaging thirty don't shoot fifty plus percent
from the form, right, That's what he's doing. But when
you look at Nikola Jokis, if I say I will
give you a player to take k Mark, you get
you got the number one over on draft pick and
you get to select anybody who you take it.

Speaker 3 (16:43):
I'm taking the kolok off top. What is it about him?
What is it about him?

Speaker 5 (16:49):
Kave Martin that you like so much? He makes everybody
around him better and it's effortless, like he's not like
with Shae. Sha is a hell of a talent. Don't
get me. I'm not taking anything off was telling he's
definitely MVP word and in my opinion, he should have
got it last year. I think whoever the voters, they
dropped the ball and not giving him his just due

(17:11):
last year because he's doing the same thing he's doing
last this year. Hates to bed last year, team has
the best record. He's averaging thirty. He just averaged two
more points than the average last year.

Speaker 3 (17:23):
That's that's that. That's it like and they got better
at the ad.

Speaker 5 (17:27):
Hartenstein chants coming into his own he as an all
star on his team and Williams.

Speaker 3 (17:32):
Williams all the things that he did last year doing
again this year and.

Speaker 5 (17:40):
For them to give it to the colon last year,
spokes by it spoke volumes to me like, Hm, we
recognize what he's doing. The Cola is playing the best
basketball he's ever sitting that that we've seen him play
within the three m vps that he has already Absolutely,
So you're gonna penalize somebody who you've already given three

(18:01):
m vps to and he hasn't played this well in
those three MVP seeds. So I'm like, what what else
can we see from Shade Shaye? She would have to
average a double double in this NBA in order for
us to put it in order. For me, I've seen
guys average thirty before. I've seen guys get to the

(18:23):
free throw line a lot. I've seen that James Harden
did it, but nobody was doing what the Colon's doing.
In James Harten season, it was no too compare to him.
So my thing for the Colon's it's you watch it
and you're like, what else can he do? And he
doesn't And you're watching it like what else can he do?

Speaker 3 (18:42):
And he does it? Like it's like, well, we.

Speaker 5 (18:45):
Are looking at history here and I don't want to
see us as in league do the same thing that
the NFL do that they did to Lamar Jackson.

Speaker 3 (18:54):
But messing with the history of the game, right, we're
talking about the history of the game.

Speaker 2 (18:59):
Here the colder is due and he's gonna he's gonna
average a triple double this year. He's gonna average the
truple double. And I said, and o'na let you go.
After this, we're gonna look back and we're gonna look
at it like we did that fifty for sixty one
sixty two season, when will average fifty to twenty five
and then then win the MVP.

Speaker 3 (19:16):
We're gonna look back thirty years.

Speaker 2 (19:17):
From now and look at Nicola Yoki's number when he
averaged thirty point triple double and they say, well, he didn't.

Speaker 3 (19:22):
Win the MVP. They're like, well, who the hell be about?

Speaker 5 (19:26):
Exactly So this is and guys of certain voters have
already got their mind made on who they was voting
for before the season is over, which is which is
votus to me?

Speaker 3 (19:36):
Right?

Speaker 5 (19:37):
God, you know they gotta finish the season out, so
you can't discredit this sixty point tripped up that this
man just had and the people, and people had already
had they vote already cast before this game, before the
last two weeks of the season, So you can't do that,
And so how can you, Oh, he's miam VT, it's
miam VP.

Speaker 3 (19:56):
Is miam VP.

Speaker 5 (19:57):
Win shake had come out and that's why I'm a
seventy point game for other people that might have had
Nicole as the MVP. So I just think it's it's incomplete.
It's never been a coal it's been a co working
of the year before. So people are afraid. People are
afraid to do that, which, if you're really looking at it,

(20:18):
let's be honest. They both are deserving of the war.
They both are deserving of the war, but they're not
gonna do it. It's not gonna be cold. But and
what is looking up to be that Shade will have
his first m v P and the other guy would
be left older his job.

Speaker 1 (20:37):
Yeah, but hold on, okay, I got a question, not
to minimize anything that that Luca's doing. Do you ever
take an account the surroundings, the supporting cast that Luca has.

Speaker 3 (20:47):
You mean you ever take an account Sga is doing
what he's doing with less nicolea Yoki in them, but
not Luca. No, No, I mean I mean Joe I
mean to say, Joe, my bad, bad bad.

Speaker 5 (20:57):
Well, if you're really well to be honest about the
yoga's just never to play with an All Star. So
Jay has an All Star this year, so yep, until
until Russ got there. So he's been doing all this
with an All Star. So Jamal Murray is an All
Star caliber player. Yes, should he have made an All
Star team up at this point, absolutely, and we think that,

(21:19):
but he's been he's been getting snubbed. So for whatever reason,
he hasn't. And Nicole has been carrying the load. That's
that's that's hard man. I don't And Lou Dordon is
an All Defensive player. Alex Caruso is an All Defensive player,
so yo, I mean, I think the thing is is

(21:41):
that Yoki is asked to do a little bit more.

Speaker 3 (21:42):
It's been interesting. Let me ask you this, let me
let me put it to you like this, Kmart.

Speaker 2 (21:46):
Let's just say, for the sake of argument, well, we see, okay,
see they have sixty four wins. What would be the
situation if the Nuggets had sixty wins? Could you make
a more compelling case if he had sixty wins during
the second seed as opposed right now, the Knuggers are
the four seed, and they're seventeen games back.

Speaker 3 (22:04):
Seventeen games back.

Speaker 5 (22:06):
I'm I'm top three in points, rebounds, assists, and stills,
top three and four major categories in the National Basketball Association.
Sixty wins, sixty five wins. They could have they could
have broke the Warriors record. Go okay, could have broke
the Golden record. Hey, man, top three and four major categories.

Speaker 3 (22:34):
You can't.

Speaker 5 (22:35):
There's nothing. No one can tell me that they got
sixty wins. There's seventeen games back, all, yes, all those
things exists, and the same time that this man is
out here with history. So yes, the shade absolutely. But hey,
I'm getting the big guys some love.

Speaker 3 (22:54):
Man he got he hadn't gotten loved three times already
and a lot of them, and it was in a
lot of people's opinion. It was questionable this one ship. See,
this is when you.

Speaker 5 (23:13):
Start when you should have gave Joel and b the award.
Then you gave it to Nicol and then you try
to pig it back. Oh, we messed up last year.
Now we won't give it to you again this year. Okay,
we should have gave it this and that game to you, honest,
and so when you start messing with it, now you
try to play ketch up, so you're messing with the game,

(23:33):
and you mess with the history of the game when
you try to play catch up and not looking at
the totality of what everybody else is saying, right, like,
we didn't want to give it three in a row,
but he asked through you he just gonna skip a
year because nobody is worn three in a row.

Speaker 2 (23:47):
Yeah, so we don't want to give it three in
a row. So well, now Larry Bird was the last
to win three in a row, but he.

Speaker 5 (23:56):
Six, Well you know, since yeah, no one else, no
one else, rather than like they wanted Larry to be
the other ones so they wouldn't go.

Speaker 3 (24:06):
Through that again. And you know what, how well do
y'all know about the people that do the voting for
the m v P. How well do you know? Is
it is the former players, people that were suiting ties.
It's the same people that vote for the n for
the NFL.

Speaker 2 (24:20):
You have reported your journalists, there are a couple of
NFL There are a couple of NFL players that have vote.
I think Kendrick Perkins has a vote. Uh, there's there.
There's several players. There are several NBA players that work
in the capacity of of you know, their NFL net,
the NBA Network, n.

Speaker 3 (24:36):
T excuse me, NBA TV, espn UH. I think so there.

Speaker 2 (24:42):
You know, there are a few, but most of the time, Kmart,
you know this, you've played fifteen years. It's mainly the journalists,
uh that that cover the NBA, the beat riders that
have the votes.

Speaker 5 (24:52):
And I have a problem with it because if you're
on the East coast, you're not standing up to watch
every game that's on the West coast, true, and vice
versa guy that's on the West coach, you had work
when them games started a lot of times early to
catch you're doing other stuff. You're not going to a

(25:12):
sports ball where they got twelve TV's on the wall
and you actually watching games and you going to arenas
and you spending your dime when your team that's not
traveling to these cities to go watch these guys play. Yeah,
so your your it's it's it's bias. It's a regional bias,

(25:33):
is what it is. Okay, Mart, did you check this
game out today? Sacramento and Cleveland. I think Cleveland's going
in the wrong direction. Sacramento won this game one, twenty
one to thirteen.

Speaker 2 (25:43):
Zach Levine was sensational thirty seven points on fifteen to
twenty one, seven eleven for three, but it was Debo
Demargy rose in ten of eighteen two or five for three,
six and six for six of eight from the free
throw line.

Speaker 3 (25:55):
He had twenty eight. Sabonas had twenty seven.

Speaker 5 (25:58):
It seems like to me the clever leads picked the
worst time to start this slide.

Speaker 2 (26:03):
And I think, if I'm not mistaken, I think they've
lost three or five over the last week, and it
seems it just seems to me.

Speaker 3 (26:09):
Kber, I want you to chime in here.

Speaker 2 (26:11):
What do you see it from the Cavaliers, Because at
one point in time, we thought, Okay, they can really
challenge Boston. They get home court, they can beat Boston.
Now I don't think. I don't give damn what they played,
they can't beat Boston.

Speaker 3 (26:22):
I don't believe Cleveland.

Speaker 5 (26:25):
I've been saying they was gonna have to get out
the first round for me to believe in them, and
that's just what it was for me. They were gonna
have to get out the first round. So and the
way they playing right now, it seems that they're gonna
prove me right. It's gonna if they do get out
the first round, it's gonna be it's gonna be a.

Speaker 3 (26:42):
Dog fight, right right.

Speaker 5 (26:44):
And they better they better hope that that that Orlando
Magic team don't land at eight.

Speaker 3 (26:52):
That boy band Carroll Fron Bartner and they and they
believe they can beat Cleveland.

Speaker 5 (27:03):
They beat Cleveland when Cleveland had that sixteen seventeen game
win streak.

Speaker 3 (27:06):
They went in Cleveland. They believe they can beat them. Man,
tell me you got hey came. You got to understand now,
beating them in one game is one thing.

Speaker 1 (27:16):
Now playing against playing against them boys in the whole
seven game series, and that's a different ball game, especially
the playoff experience.

Speaker 3 (27:22):
Last year.

Speaker 5 (27:23):
Listen, they took Cleveland only won on their home floor.
Last year, they played the same. But this young Orlando
team last year, Yeah, they played them last year and
they took them to seven games.

Speaker 3 (27:32):
And yeah, Cleveland didn't win in Orlando. And when you look,
if you look at it, I don't even believe they
had been in the eighth spot.

Speaker 2 (27:41):
They had one of those first six spots had been
Caroll not got hurt this year, had Franz Wagner not
got hurt, and if some of these and a lot
of these injuries they overlapped, so they were playing without
both of those big guns that Carroll went to the
All Star Game.

Speaker 3 (27:55):
Franz Wagner is playing like an All Star fifteen.

Speaker 2 (27:59):
Oh they they they bet because we don't really that
unless you really follow the NBA K mark like you
and I we have to, you don't really realize how
good on.

Speaker 3 (28:09):
Lando Wheel's bag. Caro is a bull man, that joke A.

Speaker 5 (28:14):
That's a grown ass man, even though he only twenty
twenty one years of age.

Speaker 3 (28:18):
That's a grown man. Absolutely absolutely, now what I'm.

Speaker 5 (28:24):
Saying, I think Frank he would have been a holl
star had he now I got hurt too, they would
have been the top three fourteen, you know what I'm saying.

Speaker 6 (28:30):
So sharky, Hell, let me get some night fellas. Hold on,
But that's the fish taking back there. Yeah, but no,
he's shooting in the two ten. He Hey, he got
he got money. You got that dill up aolk right down,

(28:54):
a little dog man.

Speaker 3 (28:55):
I'm saying. I was using the natural sunlight from the
jointed man in the NADA lighte zones.

Speaker 5 (29:00):
So you know what I'm saying to give us They
say they hit me up in the chatter, but damn
we ain't no k bar with the completion.

Speaker 3 (29:05):
The old Joe was the natural life man got dark
old We just uh yeah, No.

Speaker 5 (29:19):
I think Cleveland they I like the way they've been
playing during the regular season. I like and Kenny Adkinson
as a coach. I like them having two bigs running
the same system system that Golden State ran with two bigs.

Speaker 3 (29:34):
But they got to prove it to me in the playoffs.

Speaker 5 (29:36):
Man. They two small guards in the back court are
very good. But when it comes down to it, that's
gonna be tough, man, I think. But it's wrong match up,
Like I said that Orlando match up for Cleveland to
be tough.

Speaker 3 (29:52):
But I don't think they can be Boston. I don't
think nobody can be Boston right now? Nah Boston, Boston.
Hold on? So held on? Hold on?

Speaker 1 (29:59):
Care wait a minute now, So you got you got
the Celtics winning it again that you got.

Speaker 5 (31:04):
K martin the Yukon Lady the Lady Huff, you've topped
the Lady game. Talked from South Carolina to record their
twelfth street I mean, excuse me, the twelfth overall NCAA titles.
Paige Beckers exit on top all season as he fudged
Sarah Strong Page. Beckers was too much as all three
maybe all tournament team Fudd had twenty four points to.

Speaker 3 (31:25):
Lead UCAS and was named Most Outstanding Player.

Speaker 2 (31:29):
I knew this game was over when when Page Beckers
had three points and there was already up twelve, I said,
well it's over. Yeah, she ain't even really doing a
whole lot in the game. Is already over k Mark.

Speaker 3 (31:41):
It was hell of but performance by them, especially defensively.

Speaker 5 (31:45):
Man. You look at that box score. Yeah, for South
Carolina like yo, like the fine time not to be
able to make shots and the way you can play.

Speaker 3 (31:56):
Man.

Speaker 5 (31:56):
Shout out to Yukon Page going out on top k
with all the hype, Man, you don't think that it's
going to end this way coming out for what happened
transpired last year with Kaitlin Clark with all the height
she had going into the game and the tournament and
playing the way she did, and being able to piggyback

(32:17):
on that success for women's basketball with another dominant performance
by another the other person that's she's almost as famous
as that man, Caitlan almost you know what I'm saying.

Speaker 3 (32:32):
So to have someone.

Speaker 5 (32:34):
Piggyback on that success and to win it and shout
out to her, Shout out to Yukon shout out to
the women's game, and.

Speaker 3 (32:42):
No one saw this coming. But but Yukon, I'm assuming.

Speaker 2 (32:47):
I think the thing is k Mark is that people
don't realize as a true freshman, Paige Becker's with the
Player of the year, the injuries rob her.

Speaker 3 (32:58):
She can't she was in that. It was her.

Speaker 5 (33:01):
It was a Caitlin Clark, it was a Angel Reese,
it was Cardosa. They was all in the twenty twenty class. Yeah,
when Paige got Hurtitlan did what she did.

Speaker 2 (33:14):
But people don't realize how great Paige Becker's was prior
to these injuries.

Speaker 3 (33:19):
Now. I think in order for her for her to go,
like hey, when Rebecca Lobo and and Sue.

Speaker 2 (33:27):
Bird and Tarassei and my Moore and Stuwie with all
those in the Feasia car, when all of those are
sitting at the table, page Becker's get to pull a
puntschair now, because that was the only thing that was
missing on her resume. Kmar, she had been player of
the Year, she had gone the final fource. The thing
that will Ukon in order to be in that that group,
they hanged banners. They hang banners. That's what them great

(33:49):
players do. The started with Rebecca Lobo group, and then
Sue Bird and Tarasi and Keena.

Speaker 3 (33:55):
Charles and Maya Moore and Stewiet and all of them.
You got to banners, absolutely got now.

Speaker 1 (34:04):
Ye pull it up, hey, hey, I mean, you know,
congratulating to Yukon and what they've been able to do,
Gino winning his what number was this fan?

Speaker 3 (34:15):
His twelfth championship?

Speaker 1 (34:17):
But for the lady game Cocks, what is Don what
is Don Stanley need to do or what does it
she need to come inside that room to get back
to they get back to the top, you know, scoring
better players.

Speaker 5 (34:31):
Yeah, you're gonna get every Now you're gonna get everybody
best shooters. Now you got listen one, you got all
of them all Americans. Man, they're just like Yukon used
to be. Tennessee, what's the haunted forever? You ain't see
what's the Yukon was the heart? Now South Carolina is
the haunted? Right, right, people, you're gonna get them school's
best shot every time you plan, right's bulletin board material.

(34:54):
It's they got all these all Americans, They got all
these McDonald's.

Speaker 3 (34:58):
They've been doing this. They do this. They got compernihones
they Dad, they did.

Speaker 5 (35:02):
They So you've been hearing all this need up to
this game, and they just added fuel to this fire
that you already got burning that you want to go
out and compete so you don't get that best shot
man like whatever she do. I'm pretty sure they're gonna
go back to the jardboard. Yeah, and they still Hall
of the Team, still in Stilling dynasty.

Speaker 3 (35:23):
They still But if you but.

Speaker 2 (35:25):
If you think about South Carolina, they got no star,
they got no dominant player, and they made it to
the championship game.

Speaker 3 (35:33):
You look at Sarah Strom is a true freshman.

Speaker 2 (35:36):
She gave the twenty four and twenty four and fifteen
chaud wasn't all American. She's coming back page records. Was
once college player of the Year. She was there for
you got three the big guns. Look at Carolina Carolina.
Carolina had one player in double figure, two players a
figure off the bench, with ten off. The bitch gave

(35:58):
you seventeen nineteen twenty one. Your starters gave you twenty
four points on Joe your start. Sarah Strong outscored the
starters by herself. She had twenty four Havy Bud, she
had twenty four Paige Becker's had an off night shooting
the basketball five or fourteen, she had seventeen points.

Speaker 3 (36:16):
You're not going to win.

Speaker 5 (36:18):
If one started from the opposing team outscored your entire
starting lineup, you're not gonna win.

Speaker 2 (36:24):
The game is gonna be lopsided like it was. I
don't want I wanna talk to my sister, my sister thin. Look,
my brother went to Carolina, so obviously we rooted Paul
saith Carolina. I told my sister, I said, Libby, they
went to a game, they went to South Carolina, stopped

I said, I'll be damn okabo.

Speaker 3 (40:59):
Man, and listen, I know.

Speaker 1 (41:06):
I got tight, very tight, And I know a lot
of people lost money yesterday. That guarantee you everybody better
on to win that game.

Speaker 2 (41:16):
Yes, hey, you don't remind me of kmar. You remember
this game when Regim Miller shot the knicks you may
hit that three.

Speaker 3 (41:24):
He stole the ball.

Speaker 5 (41:25):
The Shoeston guy got the ball of red right behind
the three point line, bro and let him fly and bail.
I'm like, oh my goodness, I'm watching this. I'm like,
oh my god, no time. Man, Like just couldn't get
the ball up, possession, out the possession. Hey, they just
kept the pressure on man, and they did. And they
walked down and doing the game man, and they was like,

(41:48):
they get it to this point. It could be interested
if they keep it right here, it could be it could.

Speaker 3 (41:53):
Be his if they did. Yo, I thought the right time. Yeah,
I thought also a time, Mike Kmart.

Speaker 2 (42:02):
You remember in the first half when Duke had that
big lead and Houston hit three threes in a row
to close out to close out the first half.

Speaker 5 (42:10):
Okay, they shut you out to a big lead again,
and here come what you call them clawing back. I
was like, damn, y'all.

Speaker 2 (42:17):
And then when it got a minute twenty seven sixty
four fifty seven, I said, many y'all in for the doe,
I said, y'all.

Speaker 3 (42:22):
I said, y'all had a great run. Houston, I cut
it off.

Speaker 5 (42:26):
And see the thing about like that's that minute that
I had is an eternity in college basketball, as they
proved long right long, It's an eternity.

Speaker 3 (42:39):
And when when you.

Speaker 5 (42:42):
Guys them freshmen, So you got a lot of young
guys on, you got some incoming freshman, I mean you
got freshman, you got some mixed older guys. Them dudes
ain't been in the pressure situations man like, just having
had to show up when the stakes are that high.

Speaker 3 (43:02):
Shout out to man.

Speaker 5 (43:03):
Listen, Houston and older dudes man number twenty two, twenty three,
twenty four year old dudes back, listen.

Speaker 2 (43:10):
That's the thing because you look at it came out
when you look at look at Duke, look at all
the number one overall draft picks that they have and
didn't win the national championship.

Speaker 3 (43:19):
It started with Elton Brand. You remember in ninety nine
they lost the Yukon.

Speaker 2 (43:22):
I think they had like four first round pitch that year,
but Elton Brand was number one, Kyrie went number one,
Zion with number one, uh Ben Carrol went number one,
Flag Donna go number one and won.

Speaker 3 (43:35):
The national chip.

Speaker 5 (43:38):
Told Marvin Bagler, right and there he was chilling. You
think when zi y'all went number one. I think r
J went number three, number four Camp Braddish, Ye, you
look at Kyrie went number one. I think Kyrie them
got bounced in the second round.

Speaker 2 (43:54):
So it's like and I was coach Greenberg says, yes,
when you bring on it, it's nice because all these
McDonald's all American. You got the what number one player,
the number three player, the number five player, the number
ten player, the number twelve player in an incoming class,
everybody have been the man on their squad. How do

(44:15):
we get these guys to share, to realize in order
for us to get where we want to go, you're
not gonna be able to be the man no more?
And is that we saw that also with Kentucky. Look
at Kentucky with all the time they had the John

(44:37):
wall and the Boogie Cousins and the Devin Bookers and
the Shae Gilgers and the Tyler heroes and the Carl
Anthony towns.

Speaker 3 (44:44):
Look at all those guys that they've had and didn't
win the championship. You're super Bowls huh.

Speaker 5 (44:52):
Yeah, and winning as a learned behavior man, like you're
not just showing up as a freshman or as a
rookie learning how to win. And when guys have been
practicing this, have been working at this for years, like
you're not just finna show up and being on campus
for eight months, you find to learn the totality of
this game.

Speaker 3 (45:12):
You you come to college as.

Speaker 5 (45:14):
This phenom, but you're incomplete, like your game and your
knowledge for what you're trying to be is incomplete. Okay, right,
So you and you only on campus for eight months
and then you're moving on, so you're not really learning
everything you need to learn. And then you're getting these
pressure situations at the end of the year where you,

(45:34):
like you said, you've been the man, so that's all
you know. When it gets when when the game get
on the line, it gets tough, all you think to
do is to put on your cap. Yes, like I'm
gonna put on my Superman because this is my time now, right.
So and if you got five four or five guys
that used to put on that cape.

Speaker 3 (45:55):
Then you have this results. So my thing is older guys, man,
guys that's.

Speaker 5 (45:58):
Been coached in bread and been cussed out and been
had to get on the line for three years and
then been dead this and then been then they have
to run because they didn't go to class and all that.

Speaker 3 (46:11):
You ain't fitt out miss your dude's home, and they
won't it.

Speaker 2 (46:17):
I was listening to kad excuse me, ad Man talking
about when they got behind Serbia and they was down
like thirteen in the fourth quarter. He says, Normally, when
when I get into a situation like that, I'm putting
that KP on. I'm going I'm going, hey, take this
thing over, he said. But I watched Steph, I watched KD.
I watched Lebron swing the ball, dribble kick, and it

(46:39):
was like and the next thing, you know, and when
KD hit that three point with that book, I think
it would see the book of KD hit a three
point shot and they got fired at the fourth pointer
to KDC. Yeah, I knew it was over from that
point on. And you see the thing else because you
got to realize, now those other guys you going it too,
going to get they had caps on too, Houston. Kate

(47:02):
mart said, they're older guys, Oh Joe. They got the
mile test. They average about five. The fastest guy random
ole of like five ten. The slowest ran like five
forty six. They average about five nineteen. That kind of
pressure on you gotta have a tremendous amount of lung
capacity because they're pressuring you ninety four feet every time

(47:22):
you touch the ball.

Speaker 3 (47:24):
Yeah, every time you touch the ball.

Speaker 2 (47:26):
And to keep that kind of relentless pressure on, kind
of like the Richards used to have the forty minutes
of hell, k mark all out. I'm gonna, we're gonna,
We're gonna wear you down. Now, Hey, you might get off,
but hey, the last three minutes of the ball game
when you gotta think and you gotta execute.

Speaker 5 (47:44):
Yeah, you got to deal with that press, baby, that
old press they used to throw on your name.

Speaker 3 (47:50):
Yeah, no battle testing. You got Florida, you got Houston.
Who you k Martin?

Speaker 5 (48:00):
Why I'm going with them Texas boys, Man, you're going off,
even ask you, you go off. You if they have
players from.

You know, we gotta listen to me. But I'm realistic

How about you go, Kellen Moore?

Speaker 3 (54:03):

Speaker 5 (54:04):
Don't get me started with these dudes. Man, just because
I'm I was in high you know, I've been out
of high school a long time. See all of the
great I've been out high school a long time. That
the last time they went to the Super Bowl, I
slept high school and went to the Listen, I skipped
school and went to the Super Bowl parade for and Yes,
that had to sit out the first half of the

(54:25):
basketball game because they went looking for us in the classroom.
So no, I don't, I ain't rolling man like I'm
I'm a big.

Speaker 3 (54:35):
Time CD fan, bro.

Speaker 5 (54:37):
But Michael Parson, I'm I'm on the fence about that.
I don't know about I called him the Colder until
you do something. His name the Colder, Ray, I don't
call it if you don't get nicknames me if.

Speaker 3 (54:47):
You don't, if you don't get it done.

Speaker 5 (54:49):
Man, I'm like dudes on the show. So so we
had to take another team this show. I was going
for Lebarn and the Raidings, man like. So I was
off the band with where ain't way back And when
they first started training camp, I'm gonna tell you straight up,
they did nothing significant.

Speaker 3 (55:06):
When they didn't signed Derek Harry last year, I was
off of him. Yeah. Well listen Dallas. He traded Dallas
and I to Dallas.

Speaker 5 (55:17):
I know hit the guy he trained with my mind
like Melvin Sanders that Sanders fit wait work at that.
I was Male's first client. I know Mail well, Mail
was with me and them were trying to so I
know these dudes. Well, Male was telling me all like, man,
he trying to bear. I'm like, man, what's up with it?

Speaker 3 (55:35):
To your yawna Yanna said he couldn't afford that, And
then you go back and bring Zeke. Man. You look,
come on, man, let's not do this, man.

Speaker 5 (55:43):
Let's let's not do this man, because trust me, hey,
they could have threw one of us back there man
and got more production.

Speaker 3 (55:53):
Baby, I got artificial hip. I can't take no more up.
Kar You know what.

Speaker 2 (56:01):
Nikola Jokic and a loss forty one points, fifteen rebounds,
thirteen assists, ties Will Chamberlain for the most forty point
triple doubles seven by center uh Steve Kerr called Nicola
Jokic the best center he's ever seen. Kareem couldn't do
all this stuff. Jokic is the best center I've ever seen.

(56:23):
I played against Kareem. Kareem couldn't do all this stuff.
We're watching a guy who's doing things nobody's ever done before.
It goes so far well beyond the skill with yok
it's the competitiveness. It's his intelligence. He's absolutely one of
the smartest players ever and you see it in so
many different ways. Kmart somebody was saying hold on, I

(56:46):
forget who it was, but they said he wasn't a
top twenty player. Yet, where do you have Nikola Yoki rank?
Cause he top twenty? For me, If he ain't top twenty,
doing way with the whole whoever in the top twenty,
I'm throwing everybody out only your kitchen I'm talking about
right now. If he's not the top twenty, I don't
know what the hell were talking about, right, I want.

Speaker 3 (57:06):
Them to name me. Wait, hold on, before the answer
came out, hold on top twenty all time, all time,
all time, all time.

Speaker 2 (57:16):
In the history, in the seventy eight year history of
the NBA, he's a top twenty player.

Speaker 3 (57:22):
After he's sitting here, he's still playing Lebron. So is
Lebron and Steph Curry?

Speaker 1 (57:28):
Yes, okay, go ahead, go ahead, come on, answer answer.
I don't cure two dudes.

Speaker 3 (57:32):
You can't, yo, man.

Speaker 5 (57:33):
You can't talk about this story of the game within
the last and not mentioning him.

Speaker 3 (57:38):
Just can't.

Speaker 5 (57:39):
So if you talk about it, so if we do
it by positions, right, we can give you by positions, yes, sir,
you go will just not team performance.

Speaker 3 (57:52):
You're talking about individual dominant performance, not you go, Will
you go? King, you go?

Speaker 5 (58:00):
Shock?

Speaker 3 (58:06):
He's next in line? Man? You taking them over Kareem
or I forgot about Cap. He's fit. He's the fifth
best center of all time right now? Just some you
got three MVP's. What are you doing going after the
triple double? Hall is teach you win another one.

Speaker 5 (58:22):
He's gonna win another MVP, you know, maybe two before
he's done, maybe another championship.

Speaker 3 (58:28):
This puts him.

Speaker 5 (58:31):
Up, Yeah, top five center of all time right now?

Speaker 3 (58:33):
Man, so you you you some of these other guys
man you yeah, I'm got twenty If you're not top
twenty twenty one, if you don't have the top twenty, okay,
twenty one, twenty two, I like it. I like it,
top twenty five.

Speaker 5 (58:51):
Like if you want to take five guards, five five
point guards, five shooting guards, five small for five pound fourth,
five centers. Top twenty five our basket NBA players of
all time. He's talks he's the fifth best set of
all time. So I will I will put him at
right now he's still playing, I'll put him at fifth.

Speaker 3 (59:12):
He's he's as good as I've ever seen.

Speaker 2 (59:15):
I think the thing where people knock him is because
of his deep because all the guys that you mentioned
play deep. All the guys that you mentioned had had
made at least one some multiple all defensive teams out right,
they didn't have that. They didn't have all defensive team
when Will Chamberlain. Because Will had a game where he
had twenty four blocks. So we I mean his numbers,

(59:37):
I mean, we gotta do something. We just got to
set Will side so be cause one hundred and fifty
point fifty point games, ain't nobody ever touching that.

Speaker 3 (59:44):
You're never gonna do that. Nobody's gonna fifty for a season.

Speaker 1 (59:49):
What what a what a footage that of Will's hundred
hundred point games? You seen the footage? Ain't no footage,
You just got the box score. Yeah, so so so
if you look, yeah, I'm with you.

Speaker 5 (01:00:01):
So that's just so one hundred points, the twenty thousand women,
all of them.

Speaker 3 (01:00:05):
Hey Now he said, Hey, the twenty thousand was to
sell that book. Yeah, absolutely damn sure. Sale.

Speaker 5 (01:00:13):
So right, So my thing about Nicola, right, it's not
the defensive end. It's the top three in steals, right,
But that's one thing. But if you look at it,
Uncle and Oaks, look at when the games are on
the line, right like the other day, that that Minnesoter,
that Minnesota game the other day, right, Yeah, the sixty

(01:00:35):
point trump of the that game. Of all the things
he was asked to do offensively that game when the
game was on the line.

Speaker 3 (01:00:44):
Both over times, this, that and the third.

Speaker 5 (01:00:46):
Watch him move his feet defensively when they ask him
to go out in double Anthony l It's little things
like that that I look at right when the game
is on the line.

Speaker 3 (01:00:56):
He can move his feet.

Speaker 5 (01:00:57):
He's great, He's not. I ain't gonna say he he's
Draymond Green defensively when the game is on the line.
But you know you're gonna get an honest effort out
of him. He's gonna implement the game play whatever you
tell him to go out and do. With all the
defishies that he has defensively, give me that effort that
he that he displays when it's winning time every time, because,

(01:01:23):
like Steve Hurr said, his competitive nature fixing. You say
he can't do something, I'm gonna try my best not
to let Anthony Lewis turn this corner.

Speaker 3 (01:01:33):
Right listen, But this is the funny thing about it.

Speaker 1 (01:01:36):
Now, as great as he is offensively and what he
can do offensively in the post, mid range from three,
he's a liability on defense.

Speaker 3 (01:01:44):
I don't care how hard he tries. I won't look
at it.

Speaker 2 (01:01:46):
But yeah, if he's going against Joe Ellenbiid, he's probably
a liveing in the defense. But your question is, who
do you have on the offensive end that's gonna punish him,
like he's gonna punish your guy on the defensive end.
So when you can so when he has to play defense,
who's the guy that's gonna go at him and put
forty on his head?

Speaker 5 (01:02:07):
Like he's gonna put forty on your guys here, not
gonna do. He's gonna get thirty. He's gonna have a
double digit assist. So now that's another twenty to thirty points.

Speaker 3 (01:02:17):
Man, he's gonna get. I mean, think about this, he's
gonna average a triple double for a season as a big.
He's shooting fifty eight percent from the floor. He's shooting
forty two percent from three. That's crazy. From the line.

Speaker 2 (01:02:35):
Do you understand somebody that shoots that many shots from
the outside. I ain't talking about a guy that just
lays the ball up and dunks it. Think about how
many shots he takes outside of the paint and he's
shooting down near fifty eight percent, Ojoe, that's crazy boy.

Speaker 3 (01:02:50):
And forty two percent from the three too. You shoot
forty If you shoot forty percent from the three, you'll
make a lost thirty at Okay, you shoot there forty percent.
You aren't they look at you as an elite shooter.

Speaker 5 (01:03:05):
You shoot forty two percent your listen, Yeah, I mean
that's that's what I was. Shoot forty percent, forty one,
forty two percent man three Yes, and you got a
center out here doing it.

Speaker 3 (01:03:18):
Come on, man, like a center.

Speaker 5 (01:03:22):
