Speaker 1 Many men

Speaker 1 wish death upon me.

Speaker 1 Blood in my eyes, dog, and I can't see.

Speaker 1 I'm trying to be who I'm destined to be. And brothers trying to take my life away.

Speaker 1 Welcome back to the alley. Oop, man.
Excuse me, part me. Me and my sister was just jamming.
You know what I mean? How we do between shows. How you doing today, sis?

Speaker 2 I'm just man, you know, listen, I put a lot of work in

Speaker 1 the background.

Speaker 1 It looks nice.

Speaker 2 Come on, nobody says a word about it. You know what I mean?

Speaker 1 I was waiting to now see, I don't want to give you the behind-the-scenes salute. I want to give you your flowers

Speaker 1 in front of millions and billions. You feel me? With the old school WNBA logo, the Cheryl Swoop mothersucker.
Yeah, I know what's going on. I see you, sis.
What's going on?

Speaker 2 That's a ball rack. That's a 1997 Portland Fire ball rack right there.

Speaker 1 Come on, man. Portland Fire.
The 97 way, not the new way. The old way.

Speaker 1 Yeah.

Speaker 2 Did you see Rockets Bucks, Juju? Did you see Giannis all up in Alpery and Shangoon's face? He's unstoppable right now.

Speaker 2 Giannis is probably going to win MVP if Jokic doesn't, because Jokic is on another level right now as well. I think he's like shooting 70% from the field, averaging another triple-double, just

Speaker 2 leading the league and the cysts, leading the league in rebounds, whatever. Anyway, so Giannis is doing his thing.
He had 41.

Speaker 2 But the thing that was so crazy, and I know Miss Rebecca doesn't have this footage. Like, I just know she doesn't have it.
But we can put it in post. Is when Alpryn Shangoon sealed the game up

Speaker 2 and

Speaker 2 he crossed up Giannis and then he gave him the back.

Speaker 1 Whoa.

Speaker 2 It was such a, it was such a slow down there. I got you.
The clip, if you watch it back, is low-key.

Speaker 2 The shadiest thing you can do to someone when they're guarding you?

Speaker 1 Exactly, bro.

Speaker 1 Uh-oh. Oh, Miss Rebecca.

Speaker 2 There she goes. Look at Miss Rebecca.
Where'd she go? Watch it. There it is.

Speaker 1 Like, little boy, come here, move, little boy. Excuse me, pardon me.

Speaker 2 He does it, though.

Speaker 1 And this, ladies and gentlemen, for the listening audience, the Rockets are up three points, but like

Speaker 1 a couple of seconds left, like 30 seconds left. Can you see him? There he goes.

Speaker 2 There he goes.

Speaker 1 Hold on, hold on. Here it is.

Speaker 2 Here it is. Here it is.
There it is. Right there.
You can't see it right there, but he goes.

Speaker 1 Reaching.

Speaker 2 Bad angle. He goes up.

Speaker 1 Excuse you. Excuse me.
Miles turning and one.

Speaker 1 Oh, damn, and flex right in front of my dog. I ain't going to lie to you.
You can't flex in front of me like that, bro. I'm getting a technical foul.
I'm sorry. I understand this is your moment.

Speaker 2 You can't shoot somebody down.

Speaker 1 Nah, you're not finna. I mean, I understand it's N1.
You get the free throw, but you're not finna flex in front of me like this. What are we doing? Like, look at it.

Speaker 1 Behind the back, Miles turned the foul on you. And now, look, flex.
Oh. Oh, boy.
Hey, hey, look at here, man.

Speaker 1 I'm going at your stomach, man. I'm sorry.
Technical foul on me. One game, whatever.
He crossed him.

Speaker 2 Giannis was trying to

Speaker 2 pick Alpie up for full quarter, which is commendable.

Speaker 1 Yeah.

Speaker 1 Commendable. Yeah.

Speaker 2 And

Speaker 1 they say, the defensive player of the year is

Speaker 1 going to get dawned on every now and then. And you're going to get crossed up and you're a little embarrassed if you're out there doing this.

Speaker 2 He gave him a round-the-bat, crossy. Oh, I got you.
And then,

Speaker 1 come on.

Speaker 2 That was such a tough move. So, anyway, Rockets end up, they were down most of the game.

Speaker 2 Come back and win 122-115.

Speaker 2 KD, 31-3, and 7.

Speaker 1 Goat.

Speaker 1 Woo!

Speaker 2 KD, just effortless.

Speaker 1 Right. Stephart,

Speaker 1 as they call it. Look, what I want to bring to the table from the weekend is Brandon Ingram from

Speaker 1 the Rappers, bro. Did you see the video? Whenever he got sat on the bench now.
Do you have it, Miss Rebecca?

Speaker 2 Do you have it, Miss Rebecca?

Speaker 1 Look, I do.

Speaker 3 Give mama one second. Mama's got it right here.

Speaker 1 Hold on, man.

Speaker 2 Okay, before it pulls up, before it pulls up, to tee it off, this is maybe one of the most unfathomably objectionable moves for a professional athlete to engage in.

Speaker 2 It's, I'm not going to call it bitch

Speaker 2 behavior because that would be a personal attack, and I would not say that.

Speaker 2 But what I will say is it's reprehensible and it shows a lack of character.

Speaker 2 And it's not surprising considering Brandon Ingram's reputation, which I thought he had sort of avoided now that he's in Toronto where no one's watching.

Speaker 1 Go ahead, Miss Rebecca. Take it away.

Speaker 2 Show the clip. He's upset and he's in his feelings.

Speaker 1 Yeah. For those, so he's on the bench.

Speaker 2 He's on his feelings. He throws a water bottle down to the ground.
It ricochets off the ground and into, I think, a team trainer.

Speaker 1 Scotty Barnes, first of all.

Speaker 2 It hits him in the face.

Speaker 1 He

Speaker 2 moves his head to the side like damn. And guess what? Brandon Ingram doesn't say a.
It's not just that. It's the fact that he doesn't say a

Speaker 2 damn thing. Like, yo, you good? I'm really sorry.
Nothing. Just sits there sulking.

Speaker 1 That's the problem for me, bruh. I hate when somebody do something crazy as hell and then sit there like they ain't just do something crazy as hell.
Boy, what the hell is wrong with you?

Speaker 1 You just wet everybody up over here. Gonna sit there and like, oh, I don't see y'all.
Help us clean this damn ward up. Boy, what the hell is wrong with you?

Speaker 2 Like, this is the kind of thing that mamas would beat their kids for.

Speaker 1 Say that again.

Speaker 2 This is the thing that they need to switch out for. That's all I got to say about Brandon Ingram.

Speaker 1 Yeah, bro. Brandon Ingram, you owe them folks.
You the joker of the day for that one. Come on, man.
I know you grew up. This ain't even about no home training.

Speaker 1 I know your home training better than that bruh but moving on bruh we might have so far there of the year so far we have the crossover of the year so far right now already domini

Speaker 1 deandre hunter

Speaker 1 josh giddy

Speaker 1 meet panties to the ground exactly oh my god bruh he crossed him up and then he did the crossover where a real deal injury happened. Like he actually wrote his real deal.

Speaker 2 Josh Giddy might not play Monday night.

Speaker 1 Right?

Speaker 1 Oh, got him.

Speaker 2 Oh, my God. Let's zoom back in on this.
Okay.

Speaker 1 Oh,

Speaker 1 my God. Oh, no.

Speaker 2 Right. Oh, God.
I'm going right dunk. Into the dunkskis.
Into the dunkskis. And he stays on the ground, Juju.

Speaker 1 Bruh, that is the exact worst nightmare of my entire middle school career and high school career. Hell, intramural college career.
Like, bruh. He didn't just fall.

Speaker 2 He, he, like, it was almost like he got boomeranged.

Speaker 1 Look at, bruh. Hell, nah.
Oh, nah. Nah, bro, I'm faking it.
If that's me, I'm faking. I'm walking regular to the bench.
You know what they say?

Speaker 2 Are you serious? You know that they say that's like adding insult to injury? That's actually adding injury to insult.

Speaker 1 Bruh, Ain't no way in hell I would have limped back to the bench. I would have walked back to the bench regular as hell.
Like, yeah, bruh, bruh, bro. That's great.
Yeah, he got me right there.

Speaker 2 It's probably torn up, Juju.

Speaker 1 It's probably torn up, but I will be down.

Speaker 1 If you out there listening right now, you know exactly what I'm talking about. But you would have been damned if you would have limped back to the bench.
Let me ask you this. Boy, stop.

Speaker 2 Let me ask you this about the boy stop. Let me ask you this.

Speaker 2 If it was so bad that he needed like a stretcher or like carried off not under his own power.

Speaker 1 Yeah.

Speaker 2 I don't know how you emotionally recover from getting crossed that bad that you need a stretcher to.

Speaker 2 I don't think anybody's ever been crossed that hard in an NBA game before where they need to be carried off the court.

Speaker 1 Bruh, especially with how the boys doing. The boys been doing so good right now.
Josh Giddy has been putting up numbers, got them boys pulling up LJ graphics. You feel me?

Speaker 1 I hope this ain't the type of activity that happens and impedes the progress, you feel me?

Speaker 2 Yeah, that looks like a grade two sprain there, Juju.

Speaker 1 Right, the highway and the lowway, you feel me.

Speaker 1 Also, from the weekend, did you see my man, my guy?

Speaker 1 I already know. I feel like, you know how you see some folks and you'd be like, oh, bro, me and him would be cool.
Like, oh, me and her would be dogs if I ever met her.

Speaker 1 Trevon Brazil from Arkansas over the weekend.

Speaker 1 Bruh was going back.

Speaker 1 They was on the road somewhere, bro. And the fans was letting them have it, dog.
They was going crazy. And he was walking back through the tunnel.
And then he had a towel with him.

Speaker 1 He acted like he was scratching and popped, bro in the face and the head with the towel, bro. I'm like, bro, yeah, he crazy.
He crazy just like me, bro. Look at him.
Let me see.

Speaker 1 Let's watch this again.

Speaker 2 Let's watch this again. I got to watch it from this side.

Speaker 1 And then gave it the oh, my bad. I didn't even know your head was right there, Titan.

Speaker 2 Let's see it again. Let's see it again.
He's just

Speaker 1 bam.

Speaker 1 He said, Oh, snap.

Speaker 2 Ah, he did this. Ah, I just stretched power.

Speaker 2 Knocked his hat off and everything. Right.

Speaker 1 Exactly. He should have told his teammate, bro.
Don't reach for the towel, bro. We only like salute to Miss Rebecca, by the way, on that last video.
She came back. I can't believe she had that.

Speaker 1 Oh, I got one.

Speaker 2 I got one, Juju. I got one.
I got one. Here we go.
So, Mark Stein

Speaker 2 is reporting. It has become unavoidable at the highest levels

Speaker 2 to not consider a mid-season GM change for the Dallas Mavericks and

Speaker 2 that the negativity looming around the team has become so bad that ownership has lost faith.

Speaker 1 bro. They need to

Speaker 1 this ain't the time for that right now, in my opinion. Like, not yet.

Speaker 2 Okay, we gotta get your fan, your Mavs fandom up out of here.

Speaker 1 It can't be

Speaker 1 to have a wait till Kyrie come back. When Kyrie come back, then tell me how none of this stuff worked.
Right now, you got D-Lo on the point, bro.

Speaker 1 You got Maxwell Christie on the like getting real deal mini.

Speaker 2 Is he Maxwell?

Speaker 1 I don't know if his name is Maxwell.

Speaker 1 Maximin

Speaker 1 Maximilian.

Speaker 1 Crazy as hell.

Speaker 1 That man ain't on no dad. I know what

Speaker 1 Maximin.

Speaker 1 Why is you so damn crazy, man?

Speaker 1 No matter what that is,

Speaker 1 they got Maxwell Christie out there on God's Green Earth getting minutes and poor minutes right now.

Speaker 1 They traded for him.

Speaker 2 They traded for Max Christie.

Speaker 1 He was a part of the suggestion. They didn't want.
Looking back, I ain't want Max Christie. Let me just put that out there.

Speaker 1 They got fleece for Luca. Neither here nor there.
I'm just saying, let's just wait till Kyrie Irving, Anthony J.

Speaker 2 He's not coming back this year.

Speaker 1 He's not coming back.

Speaker 2 He's not coming back.

Speaker 1 Bruh, whenever it is, that's when I feel like we should judge them. Not now.

Speaker 1 Oh, my God. Go ahead, bro.
Tell me how I'm wrong, bruh.

Speaker 2 Well, first of all, I was just still laughing and crying

Speaker 2 about

Speaker 2 you and Maximin. This is the thing.
First and foremost, Anthony Davis was ready to go in this game, I think against the Hornets, which they sat him out against the Hornets.

Speaker 2 And apparently now Patrick Duma is involved in making decisions. He was like taking a back seat, and now he's talking.
He's yapping.

Speaker 2 Anytime an owner is yapping about basketball decisions we got problems uh we got anthony davis brindle was all get out with his permanent eye goggles with his ankles his killies his knees his calves always strained or sprained we got yeah cooper flagg running the point just

Speaker 2 dreadfully unhappy knowing that that's not his natural position you got jason kid putting his neck on the guillotine like he did for yannis when he made yannis the point forward back in milwaukee Bro, you got people mad at you, too, about that take online.

Speaker 1 People like, bro, Trister, somebody

Speaker 1 was so wrong on Giannis, she needed to apologize for the tape.

Speaker 2 I'm like, what about it? What was wrong?

Speaker 1 I mean, right. I mean, I don't know whether it was right or wrong, but you, my sister, so I'm riding with you.

Speaker 2 I like that. Well, what we know is that Giannis having the ball in his hand is what Jason Kidd wanted him to do.
And for a while, it was not working, and Jason Kidd got fired. Anyway,

Speaker 2 so you've got a disaster. The 30th ranked offense in the league.
Kyrie's not helping this team.

Speaker 2 Not to any measurable level, Juju. He's incredible.
I love Kyrie. Kyrie's a floor raiser, a ceiling raiser.

Speaker 1 He can't help a team.

Speaker 2 No, listen, I said he can't help this. I said he can't help this team.

Speaker 2 And I said he can't help him to a measurable level. See, don't twist my words and speak.

Speaker 1 That ain't how they do you right there.

Speaker 1 So now she says he can't ever help a team, period.

Speaker 2 I said this team to a measurable level.

Speaker 2 I don't think he can take them from the 30th offense to the fifth offense or to the 10th offense. Maybe to the 20th offense.

Speaker 1 17.

Speaker 2 Yeah, okay. And that's still a play-in team at best.
This is not a team that's going anywhere. You kind of have to figure Nico has effed up so bad.

Speaker 1 Come on, bruh.

Speaker 2 See, you don't think he effed up so bad? My bad.

Speaker 1 Go ahead. That's on me.
That's $5. Is that what you were going to say? $2 in the box.
I interrupted your tape.

Speaker 2 Anyway, anyway, so I think at this point,

Speaker 2 really what it is,

Speaker 2 it reminds me of what's happening out here in Portland right now.

Speaker 1 There we go. You know what I mean?

Speaker 2 Full circle. Full circle.

Speaker 1 I'm glad you bought it here, too.

Speaker 2 Not about basketball. Not about basketball.
It's about ICE. It's about the ICE agents that keeps posted up in Portland.

Speaker 2 And you know what they've done in here in Portland they're not they're not looting they don't have baseball bats they don't have any weapons they're dressing up as inflatable animals and it's gotten to a point where ice looks so embarrassed

Speaker 2 show it show it miss Rebecca you can show it show what's happening over here in Portland with the inflatable animals oh my god you're gonna make me get the inflatable frog sweet baby Jesus oh you're gonna make me get the inflatable frogs yes get the inflatable frost

Speaker 2 and we got naked naked bike rides happening in the city of Portland. And we got congressmen saying that that's an act of terror.
And the public groundswell has gotten to be so

Speaker 2 intense and vehement that it has shifted policy. And that is what's occurring with the Dallas Mavericks, is that the fans are not letting up.

Speaker 1 They will let it. Hell no.
This is not ICE, bro. I don't believe, bro.
No, this is ICE. How you know this is ICE?

Speaker 2 This is Portland fans coming after ICE. This is anti-ICE protesters

Speaker 2 gains reach beyond the small Portland pond.

Speaker 1 I thought you meant ICE was putting on frog concerns. No, they were not.

Speaker 2 No, they were not.

Speaker 2 This is the public pressure coming and revolting against the tyranny.

Speaker 1 And that is. Frogs.

Speaker 1 What's the significance of the frog? There is none. There's still froggy frogs.

Speaker 2 There is none. It's just ridiculous.
It's like, yo, we are so

Speaker 2 not aggressive that in response to ICE agents, we're going to dress up as these inflatable animals and parties.

Speaker 1 I'm just saying, we're about to be ridiculous. Since y'all are going to be absolutely ridiculous, let me take it a step further and show you what ridiculous is.
Exactly.

Speaker 1 I watched Rod Deerdick salute the ridiculous.

Speaker 2 And so that is what's occurring with the Dallas Maverick fan base. They're like, we're not going to stop just because you got Cooper flag.

Speaker 2 We're screaming fire Nico from the top of the mountain as long as we can. We're going to be putting out

Speaker 2 F

Speaker 2 N H

Speaker 2 posters outside the American Airlines arena. And we're going to be like, we're not going to take it.
No, we're not going to take it. And

Speaker 2 that's what we're seeing with Dallas. And they're starting to cave.
It's like been, I don't know how many months since February, the trade deadline. So that's like, I don't know, what, 10 months?

Speaker 2 Something like that? Nine months?

Speaker 2 Can't do math.

Speaker 1 I I ain't gonna lie to you, bro. I like how you weave that story together right there because I was with you on the roller coaster.
I'm like, Yeah, okay, here we are. Oh, frogs are here now.

Speaker 1 Okay, what are the frogs doing in this uh description of the Mavericks? And then he was like, No, no, no, no, understand who the frogs are first and foremost.

Speaker 1 I'm like, okay, I know who the frogs are now. And then you see, and that's what the fans are doing, Anico.
I'm like, oh, look at my sister,

Speaker 1 bro. It was like an episode of Monk.
Like,

Speaker 1 i'm with you bro yes he did it and i hope he burned in hell

Speaker 2 it was like it was like murder she wrote right

Speaker 1 i was following you bro yeah moving on we got a segment here at the alley oop that we like to call boy stop

Speaker 3 what do you guys think of this here we go the caption says i feel bad for whoever overeats or DoorDash order this is.

Speaker 3 Okay, and it's a guy at the urinal with the DoorDash bag, the McDonald's, the Mickey D's bag down on the floor while he's relieving himself at the end.

Speaker 2 Why? Wasn't there another McDonald's bag in the frame when we had the airline piss?

Speaker 1 It seemed like the airplane.

Speaker 2 Is that a McDonald's order in the plane?

Speaker 1 Oh, hello. Oh, he's got his socks on.
Hold up.

Speaker 3 But that is the toilet overflowed.

Speaker 2 Oh, no.

Speaker 3 Into the aisle.

Speaker 1 There's a theme here.

Speaker 1 Over 7 billion served, by the way.

Speaker 1 Yeah. Served what? Served one.

Speaker 1 Bruh. Yes, brother.

Speaker 1 I ain't going to lie to you, bruh.

Speaker 1 Salute. I don't ever advocate for this right here.
But I don't know you, brother. So I can't get blank for nothing.
I'm not snitching on you. Lock him up, bruh.
Whoever this is, bruh. Hell nah.

Speaker 3 That's what I was thinking.

Speaker 1 What if it's his damn door dash? Why would he have his door dash in McDonald's?

Speaker 1 Oh, damn, I just understood. He just came and picked it up.
I see what you're saying.

Speaker 1 Look, look, players mess up, bruh. Players mess up all the time.
I'm talking about Money My. I'm talking about real deal players.

Speaker 2 Listen, regardless, you cannot bring food to a place that you piss or shit.

Speaker 1 Uh-uh. Never, bruh.

Speaker 2 You cannot bring it in the bathroom at all.

Speaker 1 Right. Certainly.

Speaker 2 You certainly cannot put it on the floor next to a urinal. I know many men

Speaker 2 and they wish death upon me.

Speaker 1 But

Speaker 2 they also cannot shoot.

Speaker 2 Their aim isn't straight with the gun in the urinal. They're all over the place.
There's all kinds of urinal. Have you ever

Speaker 2 seen the floor of a bathroom on a guy?

Speaker 2 the seats up.

Speaker 1 Listen,

Speaker 3 you say urine, some say seasoning.

Speaker 2 Not kind of seasoning.

Speaker 2 I don't want urine seasoning, anything I do.

Speaker 3 If you were in a desert, would you drink your own pee? Like, if you were dying of thirst, would you drink urine?

Speaker 1 I'm not drinking my own peas. It's over.
Rest in peace, me, R.I.P.

Speaker 1 Until it's backwards. Like, I'm talking about come to the funeral.
I'm going to have a playlist. I got a playlist for my funeral already kind of put together.
No, you You feel me? Come on.

Speaker 1 I promise to God I don't.

Speaker 2 What's the thing on your death playlist?

Speaker 1 Number one, Rich Homie Kwan party. I wanted to come in there.

Speaker 1 As soon as you come in there, next

Speaker 1 juvenile ghetto children. You feel me? Like, up until then, I'm going to be thugging behind them.
Look, the real ones know right now.

Speaker 1 But at the same time, if this is his food or if it's not his food, take his ass to jail, bruh. Because it don't even matter what this is.
You're giving folks the idea that they can play like that.

Speaker 2 Get them out of here. Listen, we don't want to go to jail.

Speaker 2 We've got millions of dollars invested in ICE taking people illegally from their homes, their workplace, their construction, their churches, their synagogues, wherever they are.

Speaker 2 I think we need to direct all of the resources to taking the DoorDash drivers that put the McDonald's in the urinal.

Speaker 1 I'll take that. Take redirection that way.
Redirection.

Speaker 1 Quavo. Salute.
Oh, my goodness.

Speaker 1 And with that, that is another episode of the Adde O. You feel me? Look, it's a lot going on.
Jokic for MVP, but who cares? Boring, but he's doing

Speaker 2 the person that wins MVP will start with a yeah. How about that?

Speaker 1 Yeah.
