Speaker 13 Oh, Joe, Joe, Kevin Stephansky says Shadur Sanders is not getting any first-team reps like Dylan Gabriel, like he did, like Dylan Gabriel did when Joe Flacco was the starter.
Speaker 13
Stefanski said it's because Gabriel being young, you want to make sure he's getting a lot of reps. It's different when you have a vet like Joe.
Ocho, what you think?
Speaker 24 Is this normal protocol? Hell no, you know that ain't normal protocol. You should be doing the same exact thing you've been doing with Joe Flacco and Dylan Gabriel.
Speaker 24 Now, if Dylan Gabriel is a starter, you should be doing the same thing you were doing with Dylan Gabriel and Joe Flacco, but goddamn Shadur. It's a bunch of trash.
Speaker 24 And all that is telling me is that Shadur is not closer to getting the starting job until
Speaker 24 Dylan Gabriel shows that he just can't get the job done.
Speaker 24 And that's why I say there probably, maybe, maybe towards the end of the season, maybe last three weeks, Dylan Gabriel, at some point, teams are going to force him.
Speaker 24 You're going to have to beat us with your arm.
Speaker 24 We're not going to
Speaker 24
allow QJ to run up and down the field. They're going to play.
They're going to stack nine in the box. You're going to have to prove that you can beat us with your arm that's it yeah
Speaker 13 you're right i mean i i think look everywhere i've been even when we had veteran quarterbacks or whatever he get one or two reps i know obviously if you normally i don't know how it was but we had 10 plays we ran 10 plays per period offense got 10 defense got 10.
Speaker 13 right offense got 10 defense got 10.
Speaker 13 okay special teams do what they do whether it was punt punt return kick kick return whatever the case may be and then guess what ocho another 10 another 10 another 10 number 10 so forth and so on but you mean to tell me shadur can't get one rep two reps with the starters i mean out of 10 reps he can't get one what would that what would that do huh that that would be wasting time getting one or two reps with the starter is wasting time and obviously on the fancy side also it can give dylan gabriel some type of um
Speaker 24 what's the word i'm looking for some type of um security okay my job is not in jeopardy i'm not playing as well as i think it should i should be playing so i'm getting all the reps to make sure that those reps actually count in practice and once i get into the games i'm familiar with those situations okay
Speaker 24 that's all i can see it from that point too you know as a coach wanting him to get all the reps so he can get a little bit more comfortable with the situations as based on it ain't the ain't the preseason no
Speaker 24 it ain't the preseason i can't see listen they playing the goddamn patriots this goddamn sunday
Speaker 24 And that defense,
Speaker 13 man, look here.
Speaker 24 All that check down here and check down there and trying to stay with them.
Speaker 13 They're sitting on everything. They're going to be sitting on everything.
Speaker 24 Everything.
Speaker 13
Hey, look, I can't see it. I don't see how he can't get no rep.
Man, you don't know what's going to happen. This is the NFL, bro.
Speaker 13 You're one play away.
Speaker 13
So now when the guy goes in, he ain't never prepared. Because he ain't getting no reps.
You were talking about where he he can't, like I said, Joe, I agree with you.
Speaker 13 I'm not saying, oh, Joe, you split it five and five, but he can't get one to two reps in a 10-play series.
Speaker 24 Yeah, I understand what you mean.
Speaker 13
I understand what you mean, even if it ain't nothing but a handoff. That's what I'm saying.
It don't make no sense to me, man. A handoff, huh? Yeah, even if it ain't nothing but a handoff,
Speaker 13
yeah, I'm sure. I'm sure Shadur would like to throw the ball, but just a let him see the blocking with the first team.
O let him see the
Speaker 13
mesh point with the first team running back. Things like it's simple.
It seems simple. Let him take a snap from the guy that's going to be in the game.
Speaker 13 Look, and I get it. And I understand, like you said, Ocho, that, you know, Gabriel needs a lot of reps, but I don't think, I don't think you stunt his growth.
Speaker 13
I don't think you harm him in any way if you give Shadua one to two reps in a 10-play series. I don't.
Hey, I'm with you. I'm with you.
I'm with you.
Speaker 13
Cause like, like, like we saying, man, it's the NFL. You never know when you're going to need Shador.
It's a long season.
Speaker 13
Hey, look, man, you get him out there and he ain't had no reps with none of the guys. Now it's going to seem foreign to him.
I see he's still putting in the work.
Speaker 13 But man, listen, you got to get that man a couple of reps in practice, man. Come on now.
Speaker 13
Because at the end of the day, everybody look good in practice. I want to know when you get in the game.
But if you haven't done it in the game, it's hard to come in off the, just come in and just go.
Speaker 24 Yeah.
Speaker 13 Because it's, it's, it's a thousand, it's a thousand times faster in the game than what it is in practice much and guys be moving in practice but boy that thing is warp speed come game time you come in that game them guys already lathered up they've been they didn't already played a quarter or two
Speaker 13 boy please oh yeah they hunting
Speaker 13 they hunting whoo ocho joe Another day, another bizarre statement from Tua at the presser. Let's take a listen to what Tua had to say today, Ocho.
Speaker 13 Yeah, I think with that,
Speaker 25 some of it has to do with being able to see guys
Speaker 25 with their guys also up front and our guys. And I'm not the tallest guy in the back there either.
Speaker 25 So being able to see and then, you know, sometimes when that happens, you don't want to just throw it blindly. and you got to progress.
Speaker 25 So I think that that had some merit to reasons as to why that happened for Waddle.
Speaker 24 I I think he's referring to Jaden Waddell not getting any targets in the previous game that he just played against the Browns.
Speaker 24
No, I don't think so. No, not any.
I don't think he even had any catches. But that goes to say, Tu is not that tall.
Well, hell, neither is Kylie Murray. Well, neither is Baker Mayfield.
Speaker 24 Neither is some other quarterback that
Speaker 13 includes
Speaker 24
Russell Wilson, but all of them find a way to get the job done. So we can't use, oh, the offensive line was tall, oh, the D-line, I can't see.
It's all about anticipation.
Speaker 13
Understand four targets, one catch, Ocho. Yep.
Come on, man. Wow, four targets, one catch.
Speaker 13 Joe.
Speaker 24
That's your best weapon outside of Devon Aitchen. That's your best weapon.
So you have to be able to get him the ball. Tyree Killer's gone.
Who's the next Speezer that can move the chains?
Speaker 24 Who's your next home?
Speaker 13 Darren Waller is out also. He strained a peck.
Speaker 13 Peck.
Speaker 24 Yeah.
Speaker 13 I mean, Ocho, what y'all got going on down in Miami?
Speaker 24
I don't know, Joe. I don't, Joe, I don't know.
I don't know, Joe. Honestly, to me, at this point, I say you blow the whole thing up.
Speaker 24 I say blow the whole thing up.
Speaker 13 And just starting out. I think that lady was in
Speaker 13 Georgia when she told that police officer when he arrested her. You about to lose your job.
Speaker 13 You about to lose your job.
Speaker 24 I don't like that.
Speaker 13
Or talk himself out of that job, Ocho. Yeah.
Two of them making some money over there, though.
Speaker 13 That's okay. They're going to have to eat that.
Speaker 13 A team that's worth $7 billion will eat $55 million. That's a tax write-off.
Speaker 13 Ocho. It hurts.
Speaker 13 Why would you make an excuse to like, oh, yeah, because, you know, I'm not the tallest guy back there and they're not the tallest. What?
Speaker 13 I don't know.
Speaker 13 I guarantee you, Ocho, when he went in for his interviews, he ain't mentioned his height one time.
Speaker 13 He didn't mention one time that he has a problem seeing over linemen, seeing down the field. What you think? He, what do you think the chances are, Ocho, when he was going in on his interviews, right?
Speaker 13 That he brought, he mentioned his height. No,
Speaker 24 they got, they got passing lanes for a reason.
Speaker 24 You anticipate, you anticipate throws for a reason.
Speaker 24 Tua is a very, very, very good, above-average
Speaker 13 rhythm quarterback.
Speaker 24 His
Speaker 24 anticipatory skills are really good. That's how he plays that's how he runs the offense
Speaker 13 i just i i it just seemed like ocho the more he talks the worse it gets yeah and i understand as a quarterback ocho you got to have that pressure normally it's it's on uh wednesday or thursday yeah some quarterbacks some of them have it on thursday some of them have it on wednesday so he has to talk he's the starting quarterback but boy he has he's not doing himself any favor shouldn't he have some type of training and what to say he should have had the training already.
Speaker 13
He went to Alabama. Alabama, make sure you get all that.
Hey, look,
Speaker 13 you got to cut out the excuses, man, and have some accountability at the end of the day. At the end of the day.
Speaker 13 That's what it comes down to. That's it.
Speaker 13 That's tough. Just say you got to play better, man.
Speaker 13 That's
Speaker 13
ta-da. That's it.
You say you got to play better. And stop.
you know, dancing around and coming up with all these excuses.
Speaker 13 He just, I mean, like I said, the more he talks the worse it gets he threw his teammates under the bus uh and the thing was he threw him under the bus after he had one of his worst games of the year if you could believe that because all of ain't none of them been really good
Speaker 13 and then he follows he follows that up with another stinker yeah yeah
Speaker 13 so back-to-back excuse me back to back week three interception games
Speaker 24 and that's what we're supposed to follow well he got he got 10 on the season so far huh
Speaker 24 i think so i'm assuming he would be leading the nfl in interceptions no i think gino got that one oh
Speaker 13 i said i think gino got that on lock i seen i seen i seen what coach was like i hope he don't get 10.
Speaker 13 he might
Speaker 10 yeah
Speaker 13 oh tua and uh gino are tied i mean it both of them got 10.
Speaker 13 damn damn
Speaker 13 i i just
Speaker 13 At some point in time, you know, you just have to be like, you know what?
Speaker 13 You got to do the presser because you're the starting quarterback. But there's going to be a time, Mocho, if he keeps playing like this, guess what? He won't have to do it.
Speaker 13
Uh Zach Wilson will be doing the presser. Right.
Damn, man. Because they can't, because you can't.
I understand he makes a lot of money. Right.
Speaker 13
But you got 52 other guys in that locker room, Mocho, that you have an account for now. Yeah.
And they see he's not playing well.
Speaker 13
And it's a lot easier when you're not playing well. And we don't like you because you already did some slick-ish.
Yeah.
Speaker 13 You know what I'm saying, Ocho? Yeah.
Speaker 24
There's only one way to overcome this. And I mean, for tourists' sake, and that's what you play.
Now, they might not look at you the same as a teammate anymore, but if you continue to play bad,
Speaker 24 it's going to get even worse.
Speaker 13 I don't see how you play better, Ocho. It's not, Ocho.
Speaker 13 If you look at this team, I mean, they needed Tyreek to open things up. Tyreek could take the top off, it gave everybody else an opportunity to work up underneath.
Speaker 24 Right,
Speaker 13 so there was so much space. It's kind of like you're on the court with Steph Curry, they're gonna be a lot of space because they're gonna be trying to crowd him, right? Right.
Speaker 13 Well, with no Steph on the court, who I need to crowd, I can condense it now. I ain't got to worry about nobody, right?
Speaker 13
Same thing with no Tyreek, I'm not nearly as worried about Waddle as I once was. Right.
And then who else I got?
Speaker 13
They don't have a very good offensive line. Tour is not fast.
Hell, if I shut down the run, where he's going? If I play cover five, OJo, if I play two man, what two are going? Who's he got running?
Speaker 13 And like you said, he already said he's not the tallest guy.
Speaker 24 And the fact that he's not a dual threat, Joe, and I'm
Speaker 24 he has to be that
Speaker 13
better. He'll do a threat.
He's liable to throw a pick or fumble it. So he'll do a threat.
Speaker 13 Oh, I know what you mean.
Speaker 13 You mean running and passing the football. Okay, I thought you meant drew.
Speaker 24 Hey, that's messed up.
Speaker 13 Hey, he can get better, man. It's still early in the season.
Speaker 13 All right.
Speaker 13 I don't, but
Speaker 13
how many times has he been sacked? I don't know if his offensive line is that good. And he ain't much better.
Oh, it looked like one time they just let
Speaker 13 the defense just come in and say, yeah, since you're snitching.
Speaker 13 Hey, they act like that in football huh
Speaker 13 yeah
Speaker 13 you doing all this talking to the media yeah we're gonna let we're gonna let these pass rushers get right on up in there well he don't got he done got benched so he might have had more how many times did they sack yours once he came in the game because they put them on his head too well he's still the starter though ain't he yeah i don't know for how much longer joe but he is oh so they they put him back in this week
Speaker 13
They haven't said that. Well, he did say.
He said he's the starter and his expectation is he doesn't throw 10 picks.
Speaker 24
Oh, yeah. I mean, well, hell, he's making 50 men a year.
He ain't got no choice but to start.
Speaker 13 Hello.
Speaker 13 Yeah.
Speaker 13 Right. So,
Speaker 13 I mean, there are a lot of quarterbacks that have been sacked more than Tua that don't turn the ball over like Tua.
Speaker 13 So
Speaker 13 you can't turn the ball over. and take a bunch of sacks.
Speaker 13 In fact, who we got this? Who we got? Because a lot of times, Ocho, we're saying, okay, he's taking sacks to avoid turnovers. But
Speaker 13 you turning the ball over still.
Speaker 13 It's just,
Speaker 13 I think for me, it's just going to be a situation. He got to go, Ocho.
Speaker 13 Hey,
Speaker 24 damn, we got the Falcons this week.
Speaker 13
Oh. Yeah.
Y'all, what you call about what you call?
Speaker 13 Bijan about to go for like 150. In Atlanta? In Atlanta?
Speaker 24 Yes, in Atlanta.
Speaker 13 Hey,
Speaker 13
them boys ain't nothing nice here in Atlanta, boy. Oh, they on that turf.
They got something.
Speaker 24 And then it looked like we got the Ravens right after that in a short week, Thursday night.
Speaker 13 Lamar be back, won't he? Yeah. He was playing.
Speaker 13 Yeah.
Speaker 1 What a batchup we got, y'all.
Speaker 2 This is that classic HBCU vibe.

The Cowboys have reached out to the Raiders about the potential trade for Max Crosby or Trey Wingo.
Speaker 13
Joe, would you like to see your squad make this trade? Man, come on. Hey, look.
Hey, y'all. One thing y'all gotta listen.
Listen. Okay, Ocho.
Y'all gotta give us some prompts now because
Speaker 13
we've been doing our thing. All right.
You tighten us up a little more on defense. We can end up.
We can get Crosby. Man,
Speaker 13
it's going to be a real problem then now. Well, listen.
Yeah, we need somebody who regless abandoned on that defense end, man, who can help us out get to that quarterback, man.
Speaker 13 Yeah, yeah, them boys with him, the boys with the pressure that he can generate,
Speaker 13 you know, pairing with Sam Williams, they got a nice, they gotta, they'll have a nice little squad now. Them boys looking good, man.
Speaker 13 Y'all know Jay took a lot of heat from not signing Parsons, so he making he making some moves around now. Yeah,
Speaker 13 he's making some moves.
Speaker 24 But you do realize to get Crosby, them two first-round picks, you got to give them up yeah i see that now now that don't make sense you're gonna give up your two first round picks right to go get matt crosby when you left one of the you let one of the younger better pass rushes you two years younger
Speaker 24 it makes no sense joe you could just took care of you
Speaker 13 first pass the price he was cheaper though yeah that's what i'm saying about 12 he 12 million dollars a year cheaper okay hey hey we got this high power offense over here man we need something to back up on this defense end we putting up 40 bonus hey come on now
Speaker 24 y'all need need one centerpiece whether it be a d in whether it be a huge d tackle i mean hell you could even get somebody really good on the back end you know another superstar corner
Speaker 24 that that might be on the market oh
Speaker 13 huh who
Speaker 13 oh traybon no would they they probably i don't know i don't know if he's going to play this week uh jerry kind of mum on what what with Trayvon or whether or not he's going to play this week. Yeah.
Speaker 13 I mean, there was a lot of speculation what transpired,
Speaker 13 what caused the concussion i don't know i don't i don't feel like speculating right um
Speaker 13 everybody say i mean everybody in dallas or a lot of people in the chat seem to they must have been they must have been been at the house yeah uh when the alleged incident supposedly happened but uh
Speaker 13 if i that i told you last year oh joe if i was the eagles i'd have reached out If I was the, if I was the Lions, I would have reached out
Speaker 13 to the Raiders. Right.
Speaker 24 But you know, the Raiders might just say, say listen the raiders probably gonna say no why
Speaker 24 max crosby is the raiders identity yep matt crosby is the face of that organization i mean the chances of them actually letting them go is slim to none unless the package deal is absolutely worth it for the foreseeable future as far as picks two first-round picks
Speaker 13 oh they got what did it hold up they gave they think about what the packers gave up to get michael parsons oh yeah two first round picks and a former pro bowl player in kenny car
Speaker 24 yeah
Speaker 13 i think i think they'll get up off uh
Speaker 13 yeah probably what when's the deadline huh november 4th oh that's right around the corner uh-huh
Speaker 13 damn what two weeks
Speaker 13 hey hey them a them cowboys
Speaker 13 Them boys and bitten, man. Hey, they look good, boy.
Speaker 24 That offense, man, Jesus Christ.

Speaker 13 You can't. Um,
Speaker 24 I ain't finna lie.
Speaker 24 Got CD Kane back looking good.
Speaker 13
Pickens, Williams, look good. Devontae Williams, well, I think he's like second in the league, second or third in the league in rushing.
Yeah, oh, he played, he played.
Speaker 13 They got two ones at wide out. Dak is dealing.
Speaker 13 Dak is look better than at any point in time in his career, and he's had some seasons in which you throw the ball, but the way he's throwing spinning it around,
Speaker 13
hey, hey, hey, Dakota Prescott ain't playing, man. Hey, look, he looked, yeah, man.
He looked like he's in great shape, too. Oh, yeah.

Speaker 13
Look, there you go. There you go.
Hey, remember what I told you, right? Yeah.
Speaker 24
You notice how everyone that's putting the ring on their finger and getting married. Showing to have structure, have discipline.
All right, this is my foundation. I'm going to build from here on out.
Speaker 24 Yeah. You notice that everybody is flourishing, right?
Speaker 13 Wow. All right, man.
Speaker 24 I hear what you're saying. Listen, we don't have to wait two years.
Speaker 13
I'm going to pick up what you're putting down now. Oh, okay.
Stay with me. Yeah, Joe, hey, he put it down.
I'm going to pick it up.
Speaker 24 We ain't got to wait two years.
Speaker 13 Number three overall draft pick, Vijay Edgecombe, had one hell of a rookie debut tonight against the Celtics.
Speaker 13 Edgecombe, 14 points in the first quarter, broke LeBron's rookie record, most points in the first quarter in an NBA debut. And he wasn't done.
Speaker 13 34 points are the most points in a Sixers rookie debut, surpassing Alan Iverson's record of 30 in 1996 against the Buck.
Speaker 13 Edgecombe, 34. Tyrese Maxie fought it.
Speaker 13 Joylin Bede only
Speaker 13 played 20 minutes. He still,
Speaker 13
but he had four points. But those two, that backcourt went crazy.
Say it with me. They went crazy.
Tyrese Max was played 41 minutes.
Speaker 13
He was 13 of 24, seven of nine from three, seven of the free throw line, 40 points. Edgecombe played 42 minutes.
He was 13 of 26, five of 13.
Speaker 13
Three of six from the free throw line for 34. So the back court combined for 74.
of the 117
Speaker 13 that ain't it oh joe hey um uh
Speaker 13 he look like he laboring, man.
Speaker 13 I know he won one for nine, but
Speaker 13 he don't look explosive anymore. You know what I mean?
Speaker 13
Joe, you know, they can only go in your knees so many times. They can only go in your back so many times before.
And that's a big man. It is.
Speaker 13 I mean, Joe, you know that. You know, getting up and down that court, trying to play those minutes when you,
Speaker 13 he rehabbed. You know, to be in shape, you got to train.
Speaker 13 Rehabbing just gets you back to where you were. Training takes you to the next level.
Speaker 13 He hasn't been able to train. He's been rehabbing, just trying to get back to the point.
Speaker 13
Go ahead, Joe. I understand that.
And you know what? His body does look good. He does look like he in shape.
He just doesn't look explosive.
Speaker 13
Now, I'm going to tell y'all something about this VJ kid, this rookie. That man said him and his mama lived off a generator.
He playing for a different reason. You hear me? Yeah.
Speaker 13
I'm for real, Ocho. Hey, you look at that boy body.
He looked like a sprinter out there. He looked like he run track.
That man is in elite shape.
Speaker 13 He is an elite athlete, and he's going to be perfect for the sixes. That man put up 26 shots tonight, man.
Speaker 13
As a rookie, Ocho, playing with MB and Maxie. Hold on.
I got a question for you, Joe. What's up?
Speaker 13 Where do Paul George fit in this mix? Uh-oh. Them two guards.
Speaker 13 Well, first off, you can't take this young boy out.
Speaker 13
I know. You can't take him out because in summer league, he showed promise.
In the preseason, he showed promise. And now, first game of the season, he's came out.
He's competed at a high level.
Speaker 13
Man, played 42 minutes. Man, I'm talking about he, he, he balled out, bro.
Like, you can't play more minutes than anybody. Yeah, you can't taper that down.
Speaker 13
You want him to continue to be aggressive, to continue to assert himself on both ends of the floor because he can dominate both ends of the floor. He's a hell of a two-way player.
I love him.
Speaker 13
I love him. Hold on, Joe.
Hold on, man.
Speaker 24
Hold on. He's a two-way player.
He was dominant tonight. As good as he looks, all the multiple things that he can do.
When Paul George comes back, young bull is going to have to go to the bench.
Speaker 13
No, he ain't. He ain't.
Whoever this Barlow dude is up here, he goes at the four, he's going to have to go. He's going to have to go to the bench.
Speaker 13 And Uber is going to have to move to the four or something. They're not taking that boy out that lineup.
Speaker 13 Nah, he's the number three pick. Yeah, he ain't coming out that line.
Speaker 13 He ain't coming off no bench.
Speaker 24 Okay, okay, okay, okay.
Speaker 13
Yeah, he comes. He, hey, hey, he's doing exactly what they want him to do.
And that's be aggressive. Right.
Make plays on both ends of the floor. And man, look, he plays great off of Maxie.
Like,
Speaker 13 this young backhort here got some promise, bro.
Speaker 13 And they scored 42 points in the fourth quarter.
Speaker 13 Yeah, they weren't playing.
Speaker 13
They weren't playing them boy nasty. And that was in Boston.
That was on the road.
Speaker 13 Yeah. Yeah.
Speaker 13 Yep.
Speaker 24 Well, they got me hyped for basketball season, boy.
Speaker 13
Oh, man. Put that ball down, man.
Listen. That thing nasty, boy.

He won for eight, two points, minus 22. Can I tell y'all something?
Speaker 13
I'm being honest with y'all. I like Cooper Flag game.
Yeah.

Speaker 13 They need a point guard.
Speaker 13 Hey, listen, it's third quarter here, minus 23.
Speaker 13 Damn.
Speaker 13
It's the same thing with the Rockets. The Rockets need a point guard.
Yeah. They do.
Thompson,

Speaker 13 oh hey joe oh joe the vibes surrounding lebron's situation with the lakers have not been the best per javon Buja. The vibes with the situation have not been the best, I'll say.
Speaker 13 So again, I don't really want to go too much down that road, but yeah, I mean, thought there were times just looking at the huddle or looking at the bench that he wasn't engaged as he typically is when he's out.
Speaker 13 Ocho,
Speaker 13
Joe, Joe, let me check it with you first. Joe, what's going on? Man, Braun, look focus over there, man.
You don't, hey, look, he got that poker face over there.
Speaker 13 You don't know what he got going on in their head. You know what I mean?
Speaker 13 Hey, he can't, he can't do nothing, man. battling sciatica, what y'all want from him, man?
Speaker 13 They wanted to be jumping up and down to talk about, well, if he can do all that, he should be in the game. You know, they're going to say that.
Speaker 13
Yeah. Hey, I don't know if y'all know what that is what that sciatica is.
I know what it's like. Man, listen, you won't even be able to run or bend over or do nothing with that sciatica.
Speaker 13 It's not a thing.
Speaker 13 Absolutely not. Yeah.
Speaker 13 They say, well, they're not going to evaluate him for another two weeks.
Speaker 13 So they're planning mid-November.
Speaker 13 So two weeks is is damn near is what the beginning of november so and then he's gonna have to ramp it up have to play and try to get you know get some uh on court conditioning damn
Speaker 13 so he might miss what you think of joe the first 10 to 15 games easy easy easy but you know what looking at him over there uh he he do look like he's still in some shape now i know he working behind the scenes he ain't oh yeah for sure he ain't
Speaker 13 gonna always be in shape he ain't coming back to be no average brawn now he can he gonna he gonna come back and and really get to it. So
Speaker 13 they definitely could have used him last night.
Speaker 13 Yeah. Hey, Joe,
Speaker 13 they can't play defense. They can't, man.
Speaker 13 They can't play defense. I mean, you got, look, Luca tried, but Luca can't play no defense.
Speaker 13 Austin Reeves really can't play no defense because Austin Reeves realized one thing, playing defense won't get me paid.
Speaker 13 putting basket putting ball in basket gets me 30 million gets me 40 million and he gonna get a 200 million dollar deal oh yeah it's gonna be it's gonna be it should be a little easier for him that braun ain't out there you know i would figure him and luca obviously we know luca gonna be luca but uh yeah luca had 43 12 and 9.
Speaker 13 but
Speaker 13
but look hey he's a walking bucket Luca go, you can't stop him. He can do, he can got mirror.
I mean, he can get to where he wants to go. He got it.
He's going to play at his pace.
Speaker 13
You cannot speed him up. He got a big body.
He can play through contact.
Speaker 13 That's his defense.
Speaker 13
His own try to try to try to wear you dive on the LB. There you go.
His offense is going to be his defense.
Speaker 13 Hey, I don't know what y'all think this is, but yeah, his offense is what's going to uh uh make him a hell of a player and what's going to offset his defense for sure.
Speaker 13 Job A rant tonight.
Speaker 13 They won 122-128 over the Pelicans. Ja 35 points.
Speaker 13 Uh
Speaker 13 a steal, three assists, three rebounds. Uh,
Speaker 13
Jaron Jackson had 18. Wells had 14.
Jacques Londale had 10. They got Prosper came off the bench, gave him 10.
Speaker 13 Coward gave him 14.
Speaker 13 For the Pelicans, Herb Jones had 17. Zion gave you 27.
Speaker 13 Trey Murphy III
Speaker 13 gave you 13.
Speaker 13 Jordan Poole gave you 17.
Speaker 13 I guess that's Sadiq Bay came up the bench and gave you
Speaker 13 13.
Speaker 13 And then Fears gave you 17.
Speaker 13 you, you, when, when you look at this, man, y'all can say what you want, but if Ja Moran can stay healthy, because I'm gonna take y'all back to the playoffs, Arkan Ocho, they lost them first two games in OKC, but third game in Memphis, Memphis was up 30 points before Ja got hurt, and they walked and OKC walked that lead.
Speaker 13 Walked him down, they did. So we don't know how the tables would have turned if that man would have stayed healthy.
Speaker 13
He is electric, and I love watching him play. I just want to see him stay healthy because he could potentially be in the MVP conversation, man.
He keeps it up.
Speaker 13 I know it's I know it's just first game, but he looked good out there, man, putting pressure on them boys.
Speaker 13
Yeah, um, like it. Well, that's the thing.
I mean, look, we know what he is. The thing is,
Speaker 13 because of his body type and because he plays above the rim, that damn court hard and he falls off a lot.
Speaker 13 Now, I know he wore a body, I know he wore a pad suit, yeah, but that's still a damn, I mean, as much, as much as he puts, as much pressure as he puts on the defense, getting to the rim, elevating.
Speaker 13
That's what he, I mean, with that frame possibility. Yeah, yeah, with that frame, he's going to be subject to injury.
Yeah.
Speaker 13 He'll thin-framed individual. Yeah.
Speaker 13 Yeah. I mean,
Speaker 24
you know, him and AI got the same goddamn frame. Not the same skill set.
I'm just saying the same frame and they always hitting the flow.
Speaker 13 Yeah.
Speaker 13 He looked good though, man. Hey, look, we got to give Zion some credit too because when he out
Speaker 13 and he healthy, 27 points, nine rebounds, five assists, five steals.
Speaker 13 When he playing now, that's what he giving you.
Speaker 13 Look, ain't nobody ever questioned his ability.
Speaker 13
We just questioned his availability. Right.
Right.
Speaker 13
That's the only thing. That's the only thing we've ever had.
That's the only thing that we could ever question. Yeah.
Speaker 13 Should he like.
Speaker 13
Be a better rebounder. Yeah.
Yeah. Yeah.
I think he should average double digit rebounds. Yeah.
If Charles Barkley at 6'4 can average double-digit rebounds, Zion, you can too.
Speaker 13
Because you are more explosive, left-handed Charles Barkley. I know he can.
That's what you are.
Speaker 13 Now, Charles taught himself how to shoot, mid-range, shoot the three.
Speaker 13 See, people just look at Charles and all they see him is talking.
Speaker 13 People don't realize
Speaker 13
how good Charles Barkley was. Harry was a dumb.
People don't realize. Charles Barkley was hell.
Speaker 13 He led the league and rebounded at 6'4. The smallest man ever to leave the league and rebounded, which is crazy.
Speaker 24 But me and me and Barkley are the same height.
Speaker 13 Yep.
Speaker 24
Yeah, that's crazy. Hey, you know, I forgot to ask.
We done went past it already, right? Hey, Joe and Uncle, y'all ever had cicadas?
Speaker 13 What is that? Cicada is an insect, the 17-year cicadas. No, you mean sciata.
Speaker 13 Yeah.
Speaker 24 What it's called?
Speaker 13 Sciatic. It's a sciatic.
Speaker 13 Sciatica.
Speaker 24 What I called it?
Speaker 13 Cicadas.
Speaker 24 Oh, my bad.
Speaker 13 That's an insect.
Speaker 13 I ain't never have it, Ocho, but
Speaker 13
I got a partner who had it. Yeah.
Yeah. And he played ball and he had to sit out a lot of time.
Damn. Yeah.
It's like a sharp shooting pain from
Speaker 13 like your glute. from your low back through your glute all the way down to your foot go down to your side to make your feet numb yeah it sometimes
Speaker 13 i've heard i've never seen it i've heard people have it so bad they can't control body function what yeah yeah
Speaker 13 damn
Speaker 13 yeah
Speaker 13 yeah
Speaker 13 cicadia is an insect yeah
Speaker 24 I'm confused.
Speaker 13 17-year-the 17-year cicadas, they come once every 17 years? In Cincinnati, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 24 They caught me one year, but I don't know why I I thought it just sounds the same. It sounds similar, so my bad.
Speaker 13 Yeah,
Speaker 13
yeah, I know what he meant. I've been around him so long, so long, I know exactly what he's talking about.
Just like when he said George Flintstone, I know he meant Fred.
Speaker 13
He just got the two complete feuds between George Jensen and Fred Flintstone. I knew exactly what he meant.
I messed it up.
Speaker 13 Damn.
Speaker 13
Yeah, I know exactly what you meant. Yeah, I did.
Yeah.
Speaker 24 Hey, boy, this basketball season got me hyped, boy.
Speaker 13 Yeah, you know, hey, it's just like when you, old people, when your grandparents used to talk,
Speaker 13
and you knew exactly what they were saying. Yeah.
Even if you're not going to be able to do that, I'm going to live in Old Track. I know exactly.
Speaker 13 Hey.
Speaker 13 Basketball.
Speaker 13 Joe, oh, Joe, the NBA
Speaker 13 will return to painting the Larry O'Brien Bryan trophy at center court during the finals for Shams.
Speaker 13 This will be the the first finals with the lead with the large trophy painted on the court since 2009. Why do they take it up? I don't know.
Speaker 13
I enjoy, especially playing. You know, when the playoffs come, you got the playoffs on the court.
Now, yes, regular game in the playoffs. I don't like that, man.
Speaker 13
Bring the playoffs back, put the playoffs back on the court. Right.
Finals get here, put the big trophy out there. That's what we want to experience, those iconic moments.
Speaker 13
I'm glad they bringing it back, though. I didn't notice it.
I didn't notice it was gone. Yeah, I did.
I did.
Speaker 13 Because look, when I was watching the finals like we was it looked like a regular game yeah okay come on we ain't got no playoffs on the floor the finals or nothing like i'm used to seeing that so also so you you want the trophy in the in the middle in the middle yes what it used to be at center court for the finals
Speaker 13 right yeah right okay okay yeah man dress it up give us the bells and whistles man come on now
Speaker 24 i like it Hey, who y'all?
Speaker 13 Yeah, this is yours.
Speaker 24 Hey, I know it's early. Who your favorite, Joe and Unc to win the finals this year?
Speaker 13
I ain't gonna lie to you. Man, I don't know.
I don't know who coming out the east.
Speaker 13 It could be the, if you make me pick, I would probably say the Knicks or the Cavs because I don't think Boston can get there without Tatum. And I definitely don't think the
Speaker 13
Pacers can get there without Halliburton. And now Turner left and went to Milwaukee.
Who knows? Maybe Milwaukee. Maybe
Speaker 13 they do have Giannis.
Speaker 13 They do have
Speaker 13 Miles Turner. I don't know who the guards are, but
Speaker 13
you know, Giannis is going to give you 30, 13, and 6. Damn.
Miles Turner should be able to give you 17 and 10.
Speaker 13 Who you got coming out the West then? I ain't going to lie.
Speaker 13 I got OKC, man.
Speaker 13
Again? Yeah, I'm going to tell you why, Ocho. When you watch them boys play, man.
They don't play like everybody else. They 94 feet.
Speaker 13 As soon as that ball go in the hoop, they pick you up full full court and they weigh you down kind of like similar i know the rockets probably should have won that game yesterday but i know the rockets should have lost the regulation because kd called time out and the referee didn't give it to us
Speaker 13 you you're right but i i love i love how okayc play man they just relentless ocho on on both hands bro you know what i love about them
Speaker 13 everybody knows their role man they and they look like nobody say hey nobody challenging shay come about man i'm just as good as shea i need me shots. But
Speaker 13 they got six guys, legit guys,
Speaker 13
that can play defense and they can rotate them. They're never, they're not going to be on the court at any point in time where they don't have at least three wing defenders.
Right. And
Speaker 13 when you look at it, they look like a team who enjoy being around each other.
Speaker 13 Can you tell? Man, that chemistry and continuity that they have, like, oh, I agree.
Speaker 13
It don't matter who gets the play of the game, the whole team standing there listening to the interview, the post-game interview. Like, I think for me, I think that's dope.
I love that.
Speaker 13
It just looks like they really enjoy being around one another. And I think, with that alone, that's going to take them a long way, bro.
That's going to take a long way.
Speaker 13 Uh, tonight, the Bucs win 133-120 over the uh
Speaker 13 Washington Wizards. Giannis,
Speaker 13 37 points, 14 rebounds, five assists.
Speaker 13
Uh, Miles Turner had 11 and 8. Grant Trent Jr.
had 17. Chris Porter Jr.
had
Speaker 13 10. Kevin Porter.
Speaker 13
Kevin Porter. Yeah, Kevin Porter had 10.
Green had 11. Tayshawn Prince had 11.
Speaker 13 And Kyle Kuzma had 12.
Speaker 24 Okay, Kuzma. There you go, boy.
Speaker 13 Kuzma came off the bench. Yeah.
Speaker 24 Hey, Tayshawn Prince.
Speaker 13
Torian Prince. Torian Prince.
Oh.
Speaker 13 Hey, listen. You look at
Speaker 13
Tayshawn your age, bro. He ain't out there.
Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 13
Hey, hey, look at Giannis, man. Giannis just, oh, my God.
16 of 26.
Speaker 13 Hey, 4-7 from the free throw line.
Speaker 24 And he coming straight downhill, Joe. Yep.
Speaker 13
Ocho, the man's 6'11, man. 6'11.
But he ain't no, like,
Speaker 13 what he, what he is doing, you know, obviously before Wimby got into the league, right? Never seen nothing like that.
Speaker 13
And now that Wimby is in the league, now he's doing something that we've never seen. But Giannis, man, he ain't going to be denied now.
He ain't going out without no fight now.
Speaker 13 Oh, yeah, that man going to come to play every night. Hey,
Speaker 24 excuse my lack of knowledge, right?
Speaker 13 Go ahead.
Speaker 24 But would it be unfair or would it be fair to compare
Speaker 24 a young Amari Stardemire?
Speaker 24 And the Greek freak? Or is that, am I completely off?
Speaker 13
They got two, they both ferocious when it comes to attacking the rim. The rim, right? But Giannis is more of a ball handler.
Yes. Mari was more of a post of a finish.
Speaker 13
Mari was looking, he stayed in the pick and roll. Yeah, Middle, you got to realize he had two-time league MVP, Steve Nash.
Steve, one of the best pick and roll point guards to ever play. Right.
Speaker 13 So basically,
Speaker 13
they were John Stockton and Carl Malone. Yeah.
Hey, look, but before Nash got there, you know, he had Stefan Marberry and he won rookie of the year over Yao Mean.
Speaker 13
Like, Amari was ahead of his time, bro. Like, he was relentless, Ocho.
Yeah. Like, like,
Speaker 13
I don't think people give him a lot of credit, but the man came out of high school, bro, just with the attitude, like, it don't matter. I'm going through you, not around you.
I'm going through you.
Speaker 13
Right. Like, that's my dog, bro.
Like, he's one of. He's one of the best that will play the game, especially at that position.
He was unguardable, bro. Unguardable.
Speaker 13 It's funny.
Speaker 24
It's funny. I saw Amari Stardemeyer play in high school.
He played in Miami, though. They played Miami Northwestern at Miami Northwest.
And obviously, I didn't know any idea who he was back then.
Speaker 13 Yeah.
Speaker 24 Obviously, he dominated, right? Yeah. And so I remember watching his game, the little bit of basketball I watched back then, and then seeing the Greek freak play.
Speaker 24 And all I can think about is, damn, Amari Stardemeyer going downhill.
Speaker 24 If you in the way, I'm dunking over you.
Speaker 13 You better park the red seat.
Speaker 24 And watching the Greek freak, you in the way, I'm dunking over you.
Speaker 13 You bet.
Speaker 13 And
Speaker 13
yeah, hey, Lake Wells, Lake Wells, Florida. That's all he used to holler.
Lake Wells, Florida. Okay.
Yeah, yeah, that's my guy, man. But yeah, hey, boy, you see him coming down through the lane, Ocho.
Speaker 13
You better park the Red C, man. You know, he, hey, hey, he's coming with bad intentions.
You bad every time.
Speaker 24 You already know it.
Speaker 13 You already, but yeah, him and Greek freak, when it comes to finishing and attacking that rim, yeah, same, bro. Like, relentless.
Speaker 13 They don't care who down there.
Speaker 24 Yeah, remind me of myself, Joe.
Speaker 13 Oh, here we go.
Speaker 13 That's how you used to do it.
Speaker 24 Yeah, you know, when I used to at the junior high school, you know, I used to play, I used to play on a 10-foot rim.
Speaker 13 Okay, what happened?
Speaker 24 I mean, I used to look like the Greek freak or like a Mario Stardemeyer.
Speaker 13 No,
Speaker 13 you ain't looking like that, Ocho.
Speaker 24 I'm saying I was a little heavyset. I was a little heavyset back then, back in 87.
Speaker 13
Nah, nah, nah. Now we ain't going.
We ain't going. I got to hold you accountable, Ocho.
You got to stop this. For real.
Speaker 24 Hey, hey, Joe, ask about me, man. Alipala Junior high.
Speaker 24
Alipala Jr. High.
Ask him how it was on them courts, boy.
Speaker 13 You were getting down.
Speaker 24 Yeah, a little something. The man.
Speaker 24 Yeah, yeah, I would look something.
Speaker 13 How many sports you played? How many sports you played in school, Ocho?
Speaker 24 Soccer, baseball,
Speaker 24 basketball.
Speaker 13 You did this in high school. You did all that in high school? Yeah, boy.
Speaker 13
What did he do, Ocho? I mean, Lo Joe. He said he played soccer, baseball, basketball, and football in high school.
I don't know where the man lying, but if I had to. Nah, nah, nah, nah, Joe.
I do all.
Speaker 13 You know the seasons overlap.
Speaker 13 Huh?
Speaker 13 Football and basketball, they overlap, bro.
Speaker 24 Oh, no. I was like, I was like Dion.
Speaker 24 Like, Dion played for the Braves and the Falcons. That's how I was in high school.
Speaker 13 Man, we would have heard about that. You don't think we would have heard about that?
Speaker 24 I mean, goddamn, Joe. I went to goddamn high school in the 80s.
Speaker 13 How you going to hear about that? You ain't went to no high school in no damn 80s.
Speaker 13 Yeah, they know.
Speaker 13 I graduated high school in the 80s.
Speaker 13 What's wrong with this man?
Speaker 13 But yeah, look, like I said,
Speaker 13 I didn't even notice that they had taken the
Speaker 13 logo, the Larry O'Brien trophy off the center.
Speaker 13 But yeah, they should. I don't know why they took it away.
Speaker 13
Maybe if were people slipping on it or something? I don't know. I mean, you know what? I think, I think, what is it, like the decal or something? I think it probably is a little slick.
Yeah.
Speaker 13 Man, they with the technology they got now. Come on now.
Speaker 24 Oh, yeah, they can fix that. They can fix that.
Speaker 13 Yeah.
Speaker 13
Candice Parker says that innovation. she'd like to see in NBA coverage would be replicate how analysts cover schemes at the high technical level.
I'm a big football fan.
Speaker 13 I feel like I learned a lot from Blitz coverages dropped to and different sequences I never saw until they started showing it
Speaker 13 with technology. I think sometimes as players, we see things, but expect fans to see the game the same way.
Speaker 13
But to be able to kind of like hint to fans that what were coming, I think that would be magical. Yes, because we see the game, that's the thing.
We're fans, but we're analysts.
Speaker 13
So we're analyzing the game. I'm not interested in that a team scored.
I want to know how they scored. I want to know how they beat the the defense.
I want to know what coverage they were in, Ocho.
Speaker 13 Yeah. So I need to know: were you in cover four? Were you in cover five? Were you in cover six? Was it six kicks? Was it seven? Was it quarters?
Speaker 13 That's what I'm interested in. Okay, Ocho, what were you? What y'all in? A three by one? Was it empty set?
Speaker 24 Yeah.
Speaker 13 Was it
Speaker 13 11 personnel? Was it 12 personnel? Was it 21 personnel? Was it?
Speaker 13 I don't know.
Speaker 13 Fans say they want that, but they don't.
Speaker 34 No, I don't think so.
Speaker 13 They don't.
Speaker 24 I don't think so.
Speaker 13 You would have to really love like really, really love the game.
Speaker 24 Yeah,
Speaker 24 it would take away from being a fan.
Speaker 13 Right. Yes.
Speaker 24 That part would take away from actually being a fan. That is too much.
Speaker 24 And it could be confusing unless you're really interested and dedicated and devoted to knowing what's actually going on outside of the game itself.
Speaker 13 Me,
Speaker 13
I'm a fan. So I had to know.
So I know when they talk about, when you hear LeBron say the nail, I was like, okay, so what the hell is the nail? Yeah.
Speaker 13 Oh, oh, okay.
Speaker 13 So that's where it's hard to bring the double from the nail because he's between the free throw line and top the key inside the key. It's hard to bring the double when you're that high out.
Speaker 13
Okay, the dunker spot. Okay, you're on a pin down.
You want a flare.
Speaker 13 Oh, okay.
Speaker 13 I feel pretty good.
Speaker 13 I feel like I'm breaking that thing down like I'm DB. Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 13 But that's because I want to know what, I want to know why.
Speaker 13
Look, I don't care. Yeah, it's nice to see the three and all that other stuff, but I need to know why.
How that got so wide open? Who blew that? Because we're more than a casual fan.
Speaker 13 So when we watch the game,
Speaker 13
a different perspective. We're analyzing it.
Yes.
Speaker 13 Yes.
Speaker 13 Bro, trap that. Were you supposed to hedge? Were you supposed to go under? Were you supposed to go over? Yeah.
Speaker 13
Yeah. So that's that's how I'm looking at it.
And I get what Candace is saying, but Candace,
Speaker 13 I really don't know.
Speaker 13
There are probably a few fans, but the more fans, man, I don't care nothing about that. My team scored.
Damn, I don't care how they scored or why they scored. They scored.
Speaker 13
And all I know is we got the lead. Yep.
You're right.
Speaker 13
Everybody ain't going to want to go that in-depth. No, but there will be a few.
There'll be a few. Yeah.
Speaker 13 Ocho, Iso, it's time to play

I'm gonna win them today, though. I'm gonna win today.
I'm gonna win tomorrow, though.
Speaker 13 All right, Carson Wentz, more than 225.5 pass yards. Joe, you think he's gonna play? They play the Cardinals, they play the Chargers, right?

Speaker 13 Carson Wentz had like 300,
Speaker 13 but he had like two picks.
Speaker 13 And who they playing this week? They play the Chargers.
Speaker 13 Where's this game?
Speaker 13 In L.A. or Minnesota?
Speaker 13 Where is that? It's a home game.
Speaker 13 As you look it up.
Speaker 13 Damn, you think he's going to? Well, he got some weapons over there, but I don't. Oh, yeah.
Speaker 13 Naylor, they got.
Speaker 24 You said 275?
Speaker 13 Yeah, 225. He gonna do that.
Speaker 13 You think so?
Speaker 24 Yeah, absolutely. Too many weapons.
Speaker 13 With Jefferson, Addison, Maylor, Hawkinson. And Hawkinson? Definitely.
Speaker 13 Justin Jefferson, more than 0.5 rushing or receiving touchdowns. That means will he have at least one touchdown tomorrow?
Speaker 24 Absolutely.
Speaker 13 Yeah.
Speaker 13
Okay, so we're going one touchdown. Kamadi Vidal, less than 55.5 yards rushing.
Who the hell did he play for?
Speaker 13 oh, oh, that rookie got hurt, didn't he? And whatcha color got hurt too?
Speaker 13 This is the third or fourth battle.
Speaker 13 Did he play last week? Uh,
Speaker 13 Chargers really got no running game, both of the tackles beat up.
Speaker 13 I'm gonna go less
Speaker 13 lad McConkie. Just your guy, Ocho, Lad McConkie,
Speaker 13 86.5 receiving yards.
Speaker 24 Absolutely,
Speaker 24 absolutely. Ladarius McConkey
Speaker 24 might have
Speaker 24 90 to 100.
Speaker 24 Ain't nobody stopping Ladarius McConkey.
Speaker 13 Vikings are good against the rush, though.
Speaker 13 They held out Saquon.
Speaker 13 Lab McConkey. Will he have 57 yards, Joe?
Speaker 13
Yeah, I say you will. Ocho vouch for him.
I'm going to say Will.
Speaker 24 Hey, hey, Ladarius, the real deal, bro. His name is not Landis, Ladarius.
Speaker 13 All right.
Speaker 13 We're going more.
Speaker 13
So we're going more than 225.5. We're going more than 0.5 touchdowns.

Speaker 13 Kepper Norwood Jr., Uncle Ocho, my question.
Speaker 13 How far do you see the Lakers going? Play in, play in or playoffs?
Speaker 13 What are you thinking, Joe?
Speaker 13 I think they'll make the playoffs.
Speaker 13 Ocho?
Speaker 24 First round exit.
Speaker 13 Damn. Yeah, I think they'll make that.
Speaker 13
I think I ain't going to say for sure, but I do think they'll make the playoffs. Yeah, I think they make the playoffs also.
Playoffs.
Speaker 13
Dr. Frankie L.
Bellamy.
Speaker 13
Welcome back, Joe. What did you miss the most? Unk speeches or Ocho's contagious laugh? Uh, all of it, man.
I all of it. Ocho lying.
Speaker 13 Hold on, Joe.
Speaker 24 Hey, hey, what did I lie about, Joe?
Speaker 13 Hey, listen, anything just because I ain't on here with y'all almost every night, don't mean I ain't listening. All right, I'm listening, I'm watching, and Ocho,
Speaker 13
you be just misspoke the truth. Yeah, I mean, lying is really harsh, Joe.
He misspoke the truth.
Speaker 24 Listen, hey, Joe, anything I talk about, Joe, honestly,
Speaker 24
I'm going to be truthful with you. Anything I talk about on here, I know it might seem fabricated.
It might seem like a lie, but these are life experiences that I've been through.
Speaker 13 Somebody's life experiences, not yours.
Speaker 24 Promise you.
Speaker 13 You're right. There are life experiences.
Speaker 13 This boy here, man.
Speaker 13 Joe, the raptors put something on your hogs. All right now.
Speaker 13 Man, that dropped 45 45 in the third, Joe. Hey,
Speaker 13 I thought we were doing QA, about to get up out of there. But listen, hey, yeah, what happened to your hogs?
Speaker 13
You know what? And that was a home game for us, too, man. It was.
I don't know. It probably because I wasn't there at the game rooting for him.
Speaker 13
If you were when we keep it 100, you might need to be out there playing for him. It don't look like we played no defense.
Give up 138 points at home. 73 in the second half, Joe.
God damn.
Speaker 13
I don't know what happened, man. We got to get together.
Do we ever get together?
Speaker 13 First game.
Speaker 24 Hey,
Speaker 24 when we go to a game, I'm from the heck with them, boys.
Speaker 13 Hold on, hold on, hold on, Ocho, but I'm going to tell you about this Miami Heat and Orlando.
Speaker 24 We won.
Speaker 13 What play?
Speaker 13
What'd y'all win? What the score was? But y'all lost by four. It was 120.
What was the score? 121 to 125. Orlando.
Okay. Yeah.
Yeah. Hey, hi, how, how, uh, Van Perro.
Speaker 24 How you say his last name?
Speaker 13
Ben Carroll. Yeah, how you carroll.
Oh, Ben Carroll. Nice.
Yeah,
Speaker 13
Varns Wagner. Yeah, 24 and 11.
vons wagner had 24.
Speaker 13 yeah they good they're not playing bangs had 23 first game over there with with the magic subs
Speaker 13 uh how many subs have he had 14 but he was six for seven from the field he was facilitating and doing what he do yeah see orlando gonna be tough
Speaker 13 I like Ricky said Wimby put in the league on notice tonight. He's back making Cooper Flag look like some barbecue chicken.
Speaker 13 No, look, we saw Wimby his rookie season.
Speaker 13 I mean, look, the guy's 12 foot tall.
Speaker 13
I mean, he can shoot it. I mean, look, he could, I mean, I've seen people have a two-on-one fast break and pull it out.
Say, nah, I ain't messing with you. I ain't messing with Wimby.
Speaker 13 But they know he's going to throw it up out of there.
Speaker 13
Ocho. Yeah.
It's six and a half minutes left. This man got 38 and 13.
Speaker 24 Yeah, I'm looking at him. I'm looking at him now.
Speaker 13 He ain't playing.
Speaker 13 Oh, he liked Wimby. Oh, he for real.
Speaker 24 And he got 30 seven.
Speaker 13 He 30. Because
Speaker 13 we're not used to seeing somebody that. Look, KD, when you see a guy KD height, so just imagine somebody five, six inches taller than KD
Speaker 13 that can handle the ball, shoot the three, put the ball on the floor, get to the rim, and
Speaker 13 you ain't getting nothing to hear. Hey, I wouldn't be surprised if he said the NBA record for block shots.
Speaker 13 I think either Mark Eaton or Bo Manuk Bo has the record for the most. I think it's
Speaker 13 got five blocks a game. Was it Mark Eaton or Manut Bo?
Speaker 13
Man, they say the man done grew two inches. That's what I'm saying.
So, if Kevin Durant, 6'11, 7',
Speaker 13
he's 7'5, 7'6' and a half. Oh my god.
Normally, seven guys that tall, Joe, we look at Manute Bowl, George Murray'son, Branley Bowl. They're not handling the ball like that.
Nah, yeah.
Speaker 24 Hey, he, he, he's 7'7, 6, 7, whatever it is.
Speaker 13
Yeah, he's 7'5 and a half, 7'6. Hey, he's twitchy with it, though.
Yeah. Yes.
Speaker 13
Man, hey, hey, San Antonio is going to be scared because he got some dogs around him. Them young boys he got that's playing around him.
They can go. With it, Mark Eaton or Manubo.
Speaker 13 I think somebody had like five blocks a season after five blocks a game.
Speaker 13 Man, San Antonio, hey, look.
Speaker 13 Yeah, I don't keep talking. We're talking about OKC.
Speaker 13
But boy, look, San Antonio ain't playing. They putting it on.
Man, they up. Mark Eaton.
Ojo.
Speaker 13 one to 110 82 yeah mark mark eaton averaged uh four four and a half blocks a game i can see wimby do it i can see wimby the guy that's most likely to get a to get a quadruple double is wimby and he's gonna do it with block shots
Speaker 13 i mean like a team elijah one did his with block shots normally have rebounds assists steals i mean he's gonna do it with block shots hey hey hey he looked like he ain't come to play no games with these boys today he had 40 and 15.
Speaker 13 okay ojo yeah this This man.
Speaker 13
Oh, he's going to be, oh, he don't, yeah. This man.
Dawson like women tonight. Lord, have mercy.
Yes. Lord, have mercy.
Speaker 13
T.S. Car wash and detail.
Is the Clippers a top five team in the West? Who can win it all? Not the Clippers. Look, look, they lost tonight.
Look, T. Lou is too good of a coach.
Speaker 13
They'll figure this out. Kawhi.
Ooh, Kawhi didn't play well tonight. Three of nine, one of five from the three.
He had 10 points. Minus 25.
Nobody really played well. Bradley Bill had five.
Speaker 13
James Hardin had 15. James had 15 and 11, two rebounds.
Zubox had 19 and 7.
Speaker 13 Derrick Jones Jr. had 12.
Speaker 13 John Collins had 14. Brooke Lopez had 15.
Speaker 13 I wonder why Kawhi only took nine shots on.
Speaker 13 They ain't that like, but I expect him, I expect Kawhi to be at least 18,
Speaker 13 20 attempts unca ocho i expect him to be aggressive
Speaker 13 yeah yeah yeah yeah if you but if you go back and look at it nobody really took a whole i mean john collision brooke lopez uh had as many shots as as james harden
Speaker 13 um zubos had the most he was nine of 13.
Speaker 13 but this is hold on
Speaker 13 utah scored oh yeah this game was over the uh utah scored 43 in the first 35 in the second so they had 78 and they had uh they were up 78 to 47.
Speaker 13 And then now you see why he only at the damn altitude and got to them clippers.
Speaker 13
Hey, look, y'all know, I played in Utah for two years. I know what it's like.
It's almost like, it's like playing in Denver. Yes, it is.
Speaker 13 It is. Man, listen.
Speaker 13 Nikki Grant says, I'm single, two steps past 40, well employed, no kids. I'm enjoying minding my business and
Speaker 13 enjoying my mortgage. According to Chad, I'm screwed.
Speaker 13 according to well
Speaker 13 shoot
Speaker 13 man
Speaker 13 40.
Speaker 13 i mean
Speaker 13 it ain't too late it ain't too late you ain't screwed nikki all right yeah you ain't screwed nikki he out there
Speaker 13 what kind of car we got nikki
Speaker 13 yeah he out there I mean, you got a Mercedes because you know, Mercedes, you put a lot of bows on a Mercedes now.
Speaker 13 nah look
Speaker 13 there's somebody out there for everybody yeah that's that's what they say
Speaker 13 yeah
Speaker 24 and you know you know women love to say don't settle
Speaker 13 but see it's different folks see ocho a guy will make a guy looking to make money so he can provide women a lot of women are looking to make money so they can become independent See, they done got them fooled.
Speaker 13 You don't need no man. And the first time something, hey, can you do this?
Speaker 13 No, you don't need no man call somebody else to move you or change your tie or change your oil or take you to get something uh
Speaker 13 it all depends look
Speaker 13 what you is that what you want you want if you want somebody settle i don't think settle is the right word i think the thing is is that everybody is trying to find the perfect everything you heard
Speaker 13
he makes oh cho he makes 500 to 10 million dollars he's highly educated. He likes to travel.
He doesn't have any kids, even if they do.
Speaker 24 That's a movie.
Speaker 24 That's a movie you're talking about right there.
Speaker 24 That's a fairy tale ending.
Speaker 13 Everybody, everybody, everybody wants to. Did you hear about the fairy tale ending?
Speaker 13 In that VN. Yeah,
Speaker 13 happily ever after.
Speaker 24 Yeah, in the movies.
Speaker 13
Yes. It was fiction.
In those fiction.
Speaker 24 In the movies
Speaker 24 so hey nikki i got somebody for you nikki
Speaker 13 nikki you good you good i got somebody for you though wizard p is it time to stop sugarcoating these quarterbacks that are past their prime it's it's time to retire to him for him to retire and he's been washed for three to four years who who
Speaker 13 yeah who you talk about
Speaker 13
You got to give him some name, Wizard P. Because all the old quarterbacks in the NFL, they playing real well.
They're playing good. Real Rodgers is playing tremendous.
Speaker 13 Joe Flacco had an outstanding game
Speaker 13 the other night.
Speaker 24 He's going to have another outstanding one again against these goddamn Jets on Sunday.
Speaker 13 Was he
Speaker 13 who's offensive AFC offensive player of the week this week? Was it Flacco?
Speaker 24 I think it might have been Uno.
Speaker 13 How it's going to be Uno if Joe Flacco was throwing the ball.
Speaker 13 That boy had many catches he had, Ocho. It was Chase.
Speaker 24 16.
Speaker 13 Oh, yeah.
Speaker 13 jamar and seaback yeah i i told you oh well we know michael won a defensive player of the year for the nfc well yeah three sacks yeah yep boy one playing getting around their edge boy
Speaker 24 he closed the game out micah and then
Speaker 13 the the figure itself okay
Speaker 13 let ocho tell it he could have won the u.s open and ran 9-6 in the hundred.
Speaker 13 I mean, hey, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
Speaker 24 Now, listen, for those that do follow me, Joe, you've seen my tennis skills.
Speaker 13 I haven't. Don't be
Speaker 24 understood tennis skills. And listen, it's well documented, especially if anybody in the chat in Miami, they know in the 100, in high school, as a freshman, I ran 9-8.
Speaker 24 I ran 9-8, so I ain't too far for 9-6. And I wasn't even a track runner.
Speaker 13 I was a
Speaker 13 and that's the 90-yard dash. No, no, no, for real.
Speaker 24 Yeah, this is before I got hurt.
Speaker 13 First of all, if you ran 9-8 in the 100 meters, ain't no way in hell, you running 4-6.
Speaker 13 Who?
Speaker 24 No, I ran 4-6. I fell.
Speaker 24 I fell on my chest and got up and still ran 4-6.
Speaker 13 Come on, okay. Come on, Ocho.
Speaker 13 Hey, he meant he played pickleball, Joe. Yeah.
Speaker 13
They say, oh, got it, you know, pickleball. He good at that.
Ocho, I'm going to be back on that pickleball quick. Give me a couple more questions.
Speaker 24
Don't do that, Joe. Don't do that.
Don't do that.
Speaker 13 Hey, listen, hold up. I'm telling you, Ocho, I'm trying to team up with you.
Speaker 13 Oh, you try. Oh,
Speaker 13 I'm going to team up with you.
Speaker 24
Hey, hey, come to the winning side, Joe. Come to the winning side.
I like that. I like that.
Speaker 13 Yeah, I'm ready.
Speaker 13
Yeah, man. We get some people some doubles or something.
Yeah, I like it.
Speaker 13
97. Sup, fellas.
Start trade, cut, shaq, Tim Duncan, Elijah one.
Speaker 13
I said it. I'm going to stick by it.
Tim Duncan is underappreciated. Yeah, he is.
Speaker 13
But you don't want to get, look, because he ain't have no flashy game. He couldn't fly through the air.
He didn't shoot no threes. He didn't have no, he didn't have no funny sound bites.
Speaker 13 All he did was
Speaker 13
everybody, you know what, that played in his era. Mr.
Fundamentals. I played against him in two playoff series.
That boy won nothing nice.
Speaker 13 Hey, yeah. and
Speaker 13 what three finals mvps he won five three finals mvps a two-time mvp he probably should have won a defensive player of the year award but he didn't because he was like a 15 time or 13 14 15 time all defensive he's like 13 14 time all nba yeah and he's putting up these numbers with shaq
Speaker 13 now him and shaq going head to head that was a matchup
Speaker 13 it was they did they had some great ones boy yeah and then
Speaker 13 also played in the era with Elijah.
Speaker 13 Yeah,
Speaker 13 Elijah got the best of them in that finals. That was a young shack, yeah.
Speaker 13 Elijah got the best of a lot of people,
Speaker 13 man. Ain't a whole lot of people can do anything with you, but
Speaker 13
he's so quick. I had a quick little stint with Houston.
Uh, this was, it had to be 2000, what, 18, 19. This is when James Harden was averaging like,
Speaker 13
well, boy, 35, yeah, 35, something like that. But we used to play three on three every day, Uncle Ocho.
Yeah, and me and Dream used to be on the same team every day, bro.
Speaker 13
He used to play three on three with us every day. Man, listen, some of the coolest stuff I've ever been a part of, bro.
I used to look forward to that. Dream got day,
Speaker 13
dream still got some nice, some nice game for you down there. Yeah, you see over there teaching women and all them boys how to, oh, yeah, yeah, that dream shake.
Oh,
Speaker 13
and the thing was, he played both ends, yes, sir. I know he really, really played both ends.
Yeah.
Speaker 13 Yeah, he was a hell of a shot blocker.
Speaker 13 So we're going to, and so prime Shaq, prime Duncan, Prime Elijah one.
Speaker 13
I can't cut none of them. Somebody just got to cut.
Hey,
Speaker 13 somebody got to come off the bench.
Speaker 13 You'll be a fool to cut any of them.
Speaker 13 Hey.
Speaker 13
That's unrealistic, man. You can't cut neither.
It's tough, bro.
Speaker 13 Because, man, listen. Ooh.
Speaker 13 I would probably
Speaker 13 prime Shack
Speaker 13 ain't nothing like Prime Shack. Nothing you can do with him.
Speaker 24 Nothing.
Speaker 24 At all.
Speaker 13 Nothing.
Speaker 13 I'm going to go Prime Shack.
Speaker 13 You're going to have to cut Duncan, ain't you? Tell the truth.
Speaker 13
You're keeping 100. It's keeping 100.
It's okay.
Speaker 13 Damn. also i gotta hold on i'm gonna i you know what and i gotta trade no somebody going to the bench
Speaker 13 somebody got to go to the bench i ain't i ain't to get another deal because they gonna come back and haunt me oh boy hey if you trade elijah he's gonna come back and give you 40 15 with 10 blocks duncan gonna give you 20 20 and 8 shaq gonna give you 40 15.
