Alley Oop 138: Draymond Fires Back at a Fan, Knicks Falling Apart & KD Proves His Greatness

Speaker 1 Welcome back to the Alley Oop where Juju be lying straight off the top of the show.

Speaker 1 Did you get a notification on your phone that the show was starting?

Speaker 1 You looked at your phone, you go, hey, I said, what happened? And you said, the show started.

Speaker 1 How many damn overtimes do we need in the beginning of November? All of them.

Speaker 1 The answer is,

Speaker 1 was last week, I know we don't like to talk a lot about the past, you know, we're forward-looking.

Speaker 1 Was last week one of the best regular season weeks in the NBA?

Speaker 1 In like

Speaker 1 memory?

Speaker 2 It might be, bro, because the regular season usually don't register. But the Steph versus Wimby games,

Speaker 2 it's a lot of stuff that happened. Like Kay Cunningham, it's a lot of stuff that happened last week.
So you might be on this song, sis.

Speaker 1 Oh, I have to ask

Speaker 1 your perspective about this.

Speaker 1 So I posted, speaking of Wemby, Steph, San Antonio versus the Warriors. So I posted a video

Speaker 1 of Wemby going at it, jawing back and forth with Draymond, right?

Speaker 2 Mmm. Hold on, tell them where to find you.
Where do they find that post? What's your hand?

Speaker 1 That was on threads, Trista underscore crick on threads. Find me there.
There we go. And I posted: Wemby's not taking any of Draymond's bleep, and I love it, right?

Speaker 2 Yeah.

Speaker 1 Was that a disrespectful caption or nah?

Speaker 2 Hell nah, bro. Come on now.
To a non-basketball fan, if you don't know Draymond Green and his antics and his repertoire, then yes, but you know what that means if you're a basketball fan.

Speaker 1 Okay, so let me tell you about what happened next.

Speaker 1 So,

Speaker 1 Traymon Green, does Draymond Green know Draymond Green?

Speaker 1 Because what occurred was Draymond Green got straight, straight into the mentions

Speaker 2 and said,

Speaker 1 Yeah, he did. And he said, look at you, Miss Miserable.

Speaker 2 Hold on, bruh. Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah.

Speaker 2 This is a tweet from Draymond. A three from Draymond.

Speaker 1 Yes. Let me see this.

Speaker 2 Oh, my goodness.

Speaker 2 Draymond, look, salute to Draymond for commenting and realizing my sister be online.

Speaker 2 Exactly. You got to know.
Salute, but what is this?

Speaker 1 I said, how am I the one that's miserable? You just calling me names. I'm over here commenting about a young pup not allowing you to treat, son him in the middle of a game when he's seven feet five.

Speaker 1 You're six foot six, six foot seven on a good day, and you called this man who's the future of the league trash. I could have said so much more, but guess what?

Speaker 1 Now I got people in my comments being like, back in the day, back in the day, you can't comment about interactions on the court between two players. There's a code, and you're not in the arena.

Speaker 1 Come on.

Speaker 2 And I'm like, I'm like, dog.

Speaker 2 Nah, them Drake bots right there. Them ain't real people.
Them Drake bots or Kendra bots.

Speaker 2 Absolutely not. I think you should have said to your response to him should have been,

Speaker 2 we would love to discuss this on the show, Dialio. You know what I'm saying? That's a come debate me on this.

Speaker 2 You know what I mean?

Speaker 2 Come be miserable with me, right? Since you think I'm so miserable, I challenge you to a debate, sir, on the aliu.

Speaker 1 Draymond, Baron Davis. Baron Davis, friend of show, friend, like been my guy for a very long time.

Speaker 1 I just thought that was interesting that he is logging on online, probably searching his name, and finding ways to come at

Speaker 1 random people on the internet.

Speaker 1 I think he's starting to come for me specifically, like anytime I say anything, because I think this is the third time in a row he's gotten to my mentions.

Speaker 2 I mean, the besmircher besmirches, though. Like, you feel me? You be besmirching.

Speaker 2 So, once somebody see your name, come up with a hundred and so notifications attached to it. Prepare for that little interaction, bro.

Speaker 2 You got me or him?

Speaker 2 You

Speaker 2 especially on threads. Folk don't be getting notified for stuff on threads.
He probably like, what is happening? Threads? What is this? And he was yo-ass.

Speaker 2 He was like, oh, look at you,

Speaker 2 Miss

Speaker 2 Miserable. And then he talks to me.
He puts his phone down. What a name.
What a name.

Speaker 1 That's like a Netflix.

Speaker 1 Like, you know, like, there's a show called Miss. I know Miss Rebecca or Dylan be watching this show.
You know who I'm talking about, right? The Marvelous Miss Mazel? Yes, the marvelous Miss Maisel.

Speaker 1 The marvelous Miss Miserable. That's me.

Speaker 2 They should make that. Get on that t-shirt.

Speaker 1 Great matchup between Wemby

Speaker 1 and Dre. Great matchup between San Antonio and Golden State.
Warriors come back with two dubs. Steph goes absolutely nuclear.
We talked about that

Speaker 1 actually on Thursday's show or Friday's show, and then it happened again, and we got a rerun of Steph in the highlight packages. But then we got multiple OT games.
Portland and Dallas went to OT.

Speaker 1 We had San Antonio, we had Utah and Chicago go to double OT. We had Houston and Orlando go to OT.

Speaker 1 We had Kevin Durant again go nuclear. We're seeing time stand still for these old heads.
And then we had multiple on like Monday of last week, a bunch of game winners as well.

Speaker 1 So I just feel like for a regular season, the stakes have felt very high.

Speaker 2 The stakes got to be high because

Speaker 2 the besmircher wasn't the only person to get a rise or reaction out of Draymond this week. The Draymond actually also went to New Orleans and tried to the man on the front row.

Speaker 2 He said he kept calling me a female throughout the game, which in reality, they say he was calling him Angel Reese, which I know makes it worse

Speaker 2 or better.

Speaker 2 But at the same time, do you think he was inbounds or out of bounds for pulling up on bro? Like, nah, what's happening? Like, should NBA players do that?

Speaker 2 Go ahead and roll it, Miss Rebecca. I see you got a clip ready for us.
Salute to you.

Speaker 4 What happened the certain quarter with that fan?

Speaker 4 He just kept calling me a woman.

Speaker 4 It was a good joke at first, but what do you say?

Speaker 4 I'm really sorry. You know,

Speaker 2 he was speaking that he was tired, of course, from the game. And I think when them nerves set in, you know what I mean?

Speaker 2 And then somebody asking you a question like that, you got to kind of keep it real, but he was keeping it kind of

Speaker 2 unreal a little bit by saying he kept calling me a woman. Like, nah, just say the real shit stuff, bro.
Like, he was calling you Angel Reese and you ain't like it. You got fed up.

Speaker 1 What is the comparison between Angel Reese and Draymond Green?

Speaker 1 I don't quite see even the besmircher in me where I can see,

Speaker 1 I can see pot shots pretty much from a mile away on how they connect. I don't see how that one can.
The besmircher doesn't see how it connects.

Speaker 3 Didn't they say he was getting his own rebounds and missing?

Speaker 2 Not that they were showing anything.

Speaker 3 I know nothing, but that's what I saw.

Speaker 1 Oh, they were calling him me bounds.

Speaker 1 He missed five straight shots, got his own mebound. So that's what it was.
They weren't calling him a woman. They were saying, you are broke right now

Speaker 1 that is wild maybe that's why he was taking it out maybe that's why yeah i know he's got the money maybe that's why he was taking it out on me it is

Speaker 1 he heard i said hey uh womby didn't take your stuff and he was like she called me a woman

Speaker 2 Well, yeah, bro. I don't know.
That's what I'm saying. But answer the question, though.
Do you think it's inbounds or out of bounds for you to roll up on somebody like that though?

Speaker 2 Because yes, he calls you Angel Reese, he calls you me, my what insert here insult, but you a millionaire and you get paid to play a game. That millionaire, that cash, come with responsibilities, man.

Speaker 2 It come with patience, it come with restraint.

Speaker 2 Do you think he exemplified that restraint and that patience that it takes to be a millionaire playing a game hearing a fan who's gonna be here once out of the year? You feel me?

Speaker 1 Before I answer this question, shout shout out to Juju for being Mr. Accountability because a lot of times Juju is Mr.
Rainbows in the Sunshine, and right now the besmircher is rubbing off.

Speaker 1 So, no, I do not think it was inbounds. I do not think Draymond exemplifies professionalism when it comes to fan interaction.

Speaker 1 I do not think he exemplifies professionalism when it comes to his interactions with other players. We've seen that, that's why he's been suspended multiple times.

Speaker 1 I think he is a certified Smack Talker who gets in his feelings like Kiki, do you love me? Are you riding?

Speaker 1 When anybody chirps back at him, I think he only wants to dish it and has a real problem taking it. And he likes to get, let's get physical, physical.

Speaker 1 That's what Draymond wants to do anytime he feels besmirched. Yeah.

Speaker 2 What do you think? I feel you. Yeah, I think, yeah, because...
Because the thing about it is, you never know what type of day somebody having.

Speaker 2 I know what type of day you have in Millionaire Man playing basketball.

Speaker 2 It's pretty, I know that they go through stuff. You feel me? I know they go through deaths in the family, sickness.
They go through everything we go through. But come on, brother.

Speaker 2 I done paid my ticket to sit here and have court. I paid my money to sit here just so I know I can talk to you.

Speaker 2 Sometimes, like, my favorite thing to do at the WNBA courtside games is to tell players exactly how they cannot guard Ryan Howard. She can't guard you, sis.
Look at her. Look at her.

Speaker 2 She can't dribble. Go ahead.

Speaker 2 That's my experience. So

Speaker 2 I would feel crazy if Lexi Hull turned around and said, you shut the heck up.

Speaker 2 Get him out of here. Like, hold on, hold on, Lexi.
What are we doing?

Speaker 2 Which is not the same because he's a man. But I still think it's

Speaker 2 because that man could have fired off on Draymond. Then we would have had a whole different conversation.
Draymond right here in that man fade, where that man said, you know what? I take UFC.

Speaker 2 I take Carl McGrath. And guess what, Draymond? You're exposed.
Ha, ha, yo, Draymond up. And now, come get me off him.
Come come get me off him

Speaker 2 I'm saying don't do that kids don't it's not a good example but what if that happened you find yourself in a cross-faced chicken wing trying to just talk to this young brother neither here nor there

Speaker 1 it was a confrontational move that in I've been watching Mayor Kingstown you don't go face to face in the yard with somebody without knowing that you're exposing your rib cage and your throat you're too close to him I know he's got his feet on the hardwood so he's probably not about that life but you never know.

Speaker 1 You never know if somebody's

Speaker 1 a part of that.

Speaker 1 And then they just bought the court side tickets. You have no idea.

Speaker 2 Moving on.

Speaker 2 Also around the league, we had somebody else turn back the clock. Kevin Durant and the Houston Rockets against the Orlando Magic, man.
KD reminded us once again. My name is Kevin Durant, sir.

Speaker 2 I understand.

Speaker 2 I understand what y'all got over there. Jalen Sugs, I understand you like to wear your headband on your neck, even though you should come home now.

Speaker 2 I understand that, though, little man. I understand Franz Wagner, who you are.
But my name is Kevin Durant, sir. Did you take that game in sis?

Speaker 1 Yeah, I think

Speaker 1 what's fascinating to me about it is this is the number one offense in the league right now.

Speaker 1 The Houston Rockets have the number one offense. They're better than OKC.
They have a better offense than Golden State. They have a better offense than Denver.
I mean, we're talking about powerhouses.

Speaker 1 We're talking about a team that takes barely any threes per game. They have the

Speaker 1 lowest frequency of three-point shooting and the highest percentage of three-point shooting. Kevin Durant is getting the majority of his buckets in the mid-range.

Speaker 1 He's shooting like 70% from 17 feet and in, which is outrageous. And you know what?

Speaker 1 He's a certified killer and the missing piece for a Houston team that really was broke as hell offensively last year and was winning a bunch of 91 91 to 89 games.

Speaker 1 And now this team is a totally different squad.

Speaker 2 Yeah. And to think, they don't even have their starting point guard right now.
But they're pretty much auditioning Reed, Shepherd, putting their faith in the young fellas to get the job done. And

Speaker 2 they've been paying off that faith so far. You know what I mean? People always are also saying that John Morant might be the person to go to to help the situation out.
Or, you know what I mean?

Speaker 2 Somebody around the league could step in and give them a more

Speaker 2 consistent effort at that point-guard position. But let's take it away, Miss Rebecca.
Here go Katie at the end of the game the other night. I'm not your friend if you're Houston.

Speaker 2 Durant on top, Durant pulling back, shooting for the tie.

Speaker 2 Three in your mouth,

Speaker 2 another one, and that wasn't even it.

Speaker 1 Right, snatch back, up, bottoms.

Speaker 1 That's what that was.

Speaker 1 Straight, draws.

Speaker 2 Are they title contenders?

Speaker 1 No. They're in the West.

Speaker 2 Say less.

Speaker 1 But, you know what I am curious about before we move on?

Speaker 1 The Knicks. Are the Knicks in trouble, Juju? We've got OG Ananobi with a hamstring injury.
He's got a history.

Speaker 1 injuries in his career. He's got a hamstring.
He's out at least two weeks, but those injuries are notoriously difficult to come back from because you know your power is all in your hammies.

Speaker 1 You know what it is. Juju lifts weights.
He's doing hamstring curls and probably deadlifts and whatever else is the case.

Speaker 1 And you got Jalen Brunson with a you know squeaky ankle again, and he's going to be missing time. And you've got a team that is paying a lot of their starting five, a bunch of money.

Speaker 1 And then after that, even though it looks like there's a lot of depth, there's not really a lot of depth on this team. So considering the

Speaker 1 injuries of New York, how do we feel about the team?

Speaker 2 Bruh, the East is so weak to me, bruh. As long as the Knicks can make it to the play-in,

Speaker 2 they'll be good, man. Face the Bulls first round, even though the Bulls doing good,

Speaker 2 it's not going to last, bro. I have no faith in the East.
Outside of the Bucs, you don't want to necessarily run up on the Bucs, but...

Speaker 2 Ain't nobody in the East making no noise to make me think that the Knicks can't get it done from the seventh seed, the fourth seed, the sixth seed.

Speaker 2 It don't matter to me as long as they make the playoffs.

Speaker 2 It's time for

Speaker 2 bush stop.

Speaker 3 I think that this clip is, it's kind of a version of do you see the blue dress or do you see the gold dress? That's my setup for this.

Speaker 3 So remember what you see in the first five seconds when you watch this and we'll talk about it after you see it. Hold up.

Speaker 3 For our audio listeners, the crew is about to watch a video where a blonde tattooed woman, about 20s or 30s, stands in front of a kitchen counter.

Speaker 3 She picks up a metal spoon and then a lighter and lights the bottom of the spoon.

Speaker 3 This is when you think she's going to add illicit drugs to the spoon, but instead, a tub of ice cream slides into friends.

Speaker 5 You know, I know half of us watching this video just said, wow, this is a great idea. Where has this idea been my entire life?

Speaker 5 And the other half was like, I know this white girl ain't about to do crack on Instagram.

Speaker 5 Just let you know how you was raised, you know, what kind of upbringing you had.

Speaker 3 All right, what'd you all think of that? What was your first three-second impression?

Speaker 1 Listen, my first thought was, is this girl about to, is this girl about to do crack on Instagram? Like, that's, I was like, she's taking the lighter to the spoon, dog?

Speaker 1 I know this base head isn't pulling up as a boy stop.

Speaker 3 I saw, you know, I saw the same thing, and I'm going to tell you, I think it's because she's got, like, the perfect, like,

Speaker 3 slightly white trash like dejected face. Like, she's just got the face of like...
Meth.

Speaker 2 Yeah. Like,

Speaker 2 okay, ladies and gentlemen, what are we doing to this lady right now?

Speaker 3 Beautiful girl.

Speaker 2 No, she's a beautiful girl. Oh, she's beautiful, but she slightly has meth face.
Ladies, that's how I.

Speaker 3 She's got a white trash dejection face.

Speaker 1 Hold on, hold on. There's this beautiful actress that is a little methy.

Speaker 2 Hold on, let's Google it.

Speaker 3 Some of the hottest actors are methy, right? Timothy.

Speaker 3 Salamay, you don't think you see him under a bridge sometimes?

Speaker 2 I think you do.

Speaker 1 Mila Kunis is a little. Mila Kunis is a little methy.
Yeah.

Speaker 3 Yeah, I totally agree.

Speaker 1 Megan Fox is a little methyl.

Speaker 2 Totally methy. Too far.
You're going too far.

Speaker 1 Margo Robbie, depending on the, we're not talking about Barbie, Margo Robbie, but we're talking about other

Speaker 1 Margo Robbie. Can come across a little methyl,

Speaker 1 Amy Adams, a little methy.

Speaker 1 Scarlett Johansson?

Speaker 3 I'm just saying this chick in the TikTok, she nailed the open call for the Ozarks. You know what I mean? She nailed it.

Speaker 1 Yes.

Speaker 2 I'm not understanding the rules of this, though. I feel like you name all

Speaker 2 beautiful people.

Speaker 2 You name Scarlett Johansson, Megan Fox. That is not Methy in my head.
I don't see that. I see it more so when, like, Ruthie from damn Ozarks or something.
Like, he was saying, oh, sis, Methy.

Speaker 2 I'm like, oh, okay. I'll get that.
Salute to Ruthie from Ozarks. I love you.
