The 5-part Netflix Documentary Court of Gold chronicles the 2024 Olympic Basketball tournament in Paris. It’s obviously a love letter to the gold medalist US team, but more specifically, Kevin Durrant, Steph Curry, and to a lesser extent, LeBron James. The episodes follow the tournament's progression and highlight a few of the other national teams along the way. The series features several insightful and down-to-earth interviews of players and coaches of the 2024 teams, as well as great teams of the past.

00:00:44.799 --> 00:00:47.359
group of strangers endgame and game.

12
00:00:47.439 --> 00:00:52.200
Yeah, I hype you experience. Oh dude, I have never

13
00:00:52.359 --> 00:00:55.039
I mean I've I went. I went by myself in

14
00:00:55.079 --> 00:00:58.039
an empty, empty place. That's when I was doing like

15
00:00:58.119 --> 00:01:00.399
Tuesday ten ams myself.

16
00:01:00.439 --> 00:01:03.960
But I went. I went Opening Night first show, you know,

17
00:01:04.000 --> 00:01:08.480
like the midnight show. Yeah, you know, with the Hype crew,

18
00:01:08.920 --> 00:01:11.760
And it was like a Travis Scott concert you dress up. No,

19
00:01:12.680 --> 00:01:15.280
but it was I mean, when that ship all goes

20
00:01:15.319 --> 00:01:18.359
down at the end, like everybody was like literally losing

21
00:01:18.400 --> 00:01:20.439
their mind. It was the craziest thing I've ever one

22
00:01:20.439 --> 00:01:22.480
of the one of the things I'll remember for the

23
00:01:22.480 --> 00:01:23.120
rest of my life.

24
00:01:23.359 --> 00:01:25.079
Harry Potter was like that. I did a lot of

25
00:01:25.120 --> 00:01:26.560
Midnight Harry Potter's.

26
00:01:27.120 --> 00:01:30.760
The thor Hammer with Captain America. Yeah, that was that scene.

27
00:01:31.319 --> 00:01:33.120
I never felt like anything, Like I watched a trailer

28
00:01:33.120 --> 00:01:34.760
of it the other day, like a cut, and I

29
00:01:34.760 --> 00:01:37.200
hadn't seen it in a while, and it gave me goosebumps. Yeah,

30
00:01:37.280 --> 00:01:38.120
me too, Me too.

31
00:01:38.640 --> 00:01:41.760
That's a difficult to top ever moment.

32
00:01:41.879 --> 00:01:44.840
It was perfect set up with that was like genius

33
00:01:45.359 --> 00:01:49.079
Captain the Captain's my favorite. I'm sorry, just like the

34
00:01:49.120 --> 00:01:49.719
new Captain.

35
00:01:50.359 --> 00:01:56.239
Uh Falcon, No, no, no, he's fine, he's fine.

36
00:01:56.280 --> 00:01:59.920
Actually, But also like I liked Falcon though, Yeah, I.

37
00:01:59.840 --> 00:02:02.079
Like talking to I actually saw the other day that,

38
00:02:03.239 --> 00:02:04.840
you know, because he was in eight Mile.

39
00:02:05.640 --> 00:02:07.799
Yeah, and he's been in a bunch of stuff.

40
00:02:07.799 --> 00:02:08.719
He's been a long time.

41
00:02:08.800 --> 00:02:13.759
And the rap battle that he has with Eminem, apparently

42
00:02:14.240 --> 00:02:21.000
Eminem was not happy with the uh the lines that

43
00:02:21.000 --> 00:02:23.680
were written for that rap battle for himself to deliver.

44
00:02:24.159 --> 00:02:28.280
And he'd had a conversation with with what's his face

45
00:02:29.120 --> 00:02:37.080
beforehand and Anthony Anthony Anthony something. Yeah, and the stuff

46
00:02:37.159 --> 00:02:43.000
in his rap was actually personal to the actor, not

47
00:02:43.240 --> 00:02:47.439
the not the character, which is why his reaction is

48
00:02:47.520 --> 00:02:50.960
so uh so legit, so authentic.

49
00:02:51.439 --> 00:02:53.560
It makes sense he came after him. Yeah.

50
00:02:54.360 --> 00:02:56.719
I mean even when eight Mile came out, Eminem was

51
00:02:56.759 --> 00:02:58.960
like young, Like he wasn't that famous that long.

52
00:02:59.400 --> 00:03:01.479
Yeah, like like eight years.

53
00:03:01.759 --> 00:03:04.080
Yeah, which I know seems long, but in the scheme

54
00:03:04.120 --> 00:03:06.240
of things, yeah, no, it was like like he still

55
00:03:06.280 --> 00:03:07.479
got his Detroit roots in them.

56
00:03:07.560 --> 00:03:08.960
It was that was back in the day though, like

57
00:03:08.960 --> 00:03:11.800
when you would get super famous for something and then

58
00:03:11.800 --> 00:03:12.719
you go straight into.

59
00:03:12.599 --> 00:03:15.159
Movies, right, or you disappear, right yeah, Britney Spears, all

60
00:03:15.159 --> 00:03:16.879
of them went to movies, like a movie or two.

61
00:03:16.960 --> 00:03:19.199
They also disappeared, like Brittany really had like I guess

62
00:03:19.199 --> 00:03:21.000
she's a little bit longer. But like Backstreet Boys, all

63
00:03:21.039 --> 00:03:23.199
this shit had like one album.

64
00:03:23.400 --> 00:03:25.560
The Backstreet Boys was because in Sync kind of just

65
00:03:25.639 --> 00:03:26.400
like demolished that.

66
00:03:26.479 --> 00:03:28.520
But even then they had like three albums, you know,

67
00:03:28.599 --> 00:03:31.439
like you versus like an m like you toured.

68
00:03:31.080 --> 00:03:33.919
The same songs for like five Well, actually didn't even

69
00:03:33.919 --> 00:03:35.639
have tour that much back then now because you made

70
00:03:35.680 --> 00:03:37.639
so much money on CDs and those.

71
00:03:38.039 --> 00:03:40.080
Just a genre just didn't last that long, you know.

72
00:03:40.080 --> 00:03:41.120
It turned edgy quick.

73
00:03:41.400 --> 00:03:45.360
Anthony Mackie, By the way, Anthony Mackie, I did not

74
00:03:45.439 --> 00:03:47.919
see that New Captain America. I mean either all watched it.

75
00:03:48.039 --> 00:03:52.360
Like eventually, I tried to watch Kraken, What a Dog Pilot?

76
00:03:52.360 --> 00:03:55.919
Shit that bad? I tried to or Craven cra Craven

77
00:03:55.960 --> 00:03:58.000
the Hunter. I heard that was really really bad. I

78
00:03:58.039 --> 00:03:59.199
tried to watch it. I was like, you know what,

79
00:03:59.439 --> 00:04:01.400
you know, whatever, I'm gonna watch this and it's free,

80
00:04:01.759 --> 00:04:03.800
it's f it's on Disney Plus or whatever, and I'm like,

81
00:04:03.840 --> 00:04:06.039
I think it was Disney Plus something like that anyways,

82
00:04:06.360 --> 00:04:08.599
and I'm like, oh, man, like this is just this

83
00:04:08.680 --> 00:04:09.400
is just not good.

84
00:04:10.360 --> 00:04:13.759
The uh everyone says the new Captain is just lackluster.

85
00:04:13.879 --> 00:04:14.520
That's not bad.

86
00:04:14.639 --> 00:04:17.680
Yeah, that's what everyone said. This should have been a series, Yeah,

87
00:04:17.720 --> 00:04:19.240
it should have. It should have been a TV show,

88
00:04:19.240 --> 00:04:21.160
should have been the second season of that TV shit.

89
00:04:21.199 --> 00:04:22.600
And that sucks though, right because then like.

90
00:04:22.639 --> 00:04:24.519
A Winter Soldier, which was great. I liked it. I

91
00:04:24.600 --> 00:04:25.000
enjoyed it.

92
00:04:25.000 --> 00:04:26.920
But the only cool about part of those series is

93
00:04:26.920 --> 00:04:28.519
if you're like adding to the lower.

94
00:04:29.120 --> 00:04:31.839
Yeah, there's no lawer anymore though, there's no there's no

95
00:04:31.879 --> 00:04:32.759
big picture story.

96
00:04:32.879 --> 00:04:35.399
Everything's just kind of like hopefully with this doom Ship

97
00:04:35.519 --> 00:04:36.120
it'll add back.

98
00:04:36.319 --> 00:04:38.040
I think it's complain I think it's time to move on.

99
00:04:39.000 --> 00:04:44.319
What's next? The movies going Devil's Good though? Has that started? Then? Yeah?

100
00:04:44.759 --> 00:04:46.920
I have to watch. I heard it's kind of dark, right, it's.

101
00:04:46.839 --> 00:04:50.759
Darker than the Netflix one. It's more violent than the

102
00:04:50.800 --> 00:04:51.680
Netflix one too.

103
00:04:52.000 --> 00:04:53.560
I heard they said it's like the most violent thing

104
00:04:53.560 --> 00:04:55.720
Disney is probably ever put out. Yeah, oh really, Yeah,

105
00:04:55.720 --> 00:04:57.639
it's really good and or is kind of gnarly too though.

106
00:04:57.680 --> 00:05:01.680
They murder people come and soon too. Season two. Dude,

107
00:05:01.680 --> 00:05:03.839
I can't wait for that. I can't either. It's so good,

108
00:05:04.360 --> 00:05:07.560
so so good. It is going dark. Huh.

109
00:05:07.680 --> 00:05:10.079
Do you think that's because they can't grab kids like

110
00:05:10.120 --> 00:05:12.480
they have to rely on our generation?

111
00:05:13.000 --> 00:05:14.480
I think yeah, I think you're right. Yeah, I think

112
00:05:14.480 --> 00:05:15.160
there's definitely.

113
00:05:15.160 --> 00:05:17.480
In fact, if you can't capture the next generation, you're

114
00:05:17.480 --> 00:05:19.480
gonna stop making kids ship and you're gonna hit the

115
00:05:19.519 --> 00:05:20.879
thirty year olds that grew up with you.

116
00:05:21.639 --> 00:05:23.759
Malwaka two has been on repeat in my house right now.

117
00:05:24.120 --> 00:05:27.360
It's terrible. It's like, no, it's not Oh really, I've

118
00:05:27.360 --> 00:05:28.800
heard that. I'm not saying because you're saying that, but

119
00:05:28.839 --> 00:05:30.920
I've so many times now and I'm like, sing me

120
00:05:30.959 --> 00:05:33.279
a song. Yeah, it's not good as the first one.

121
00:05:33.160 --> 00:05:33.879
Sing me a song.

122
00:05:34.040 --> 00:05:34.519
I don't know this.

123
00:05:34.839 --> 00:05:36.839
See the first ones are good, remember the song.

124
00:05:37.399 --> 00:05:38.959
But I've only seen but I've seen the first one

125
00:05:39.000 --> 00:05:41.160
like three thousand times, and I've seen the first one

126
00:05:41.199 --> 00:05:44.480
like four or five thousand, Like it was on like

127
00:05:44.519 --> 00:05:46.759
every day for like months, not literally, but yeah, that

128
00:05:46.879 --> 00:05:48.279
is such a kid thing too, to have the same

129
00:05:48.279 --> 00:05:50.480
ship on all the time. Or yeah, my daughter loves it.

130
00:05:50.759 --> 00:05:52.480
I just got into like lion King, so you just

131
00:05:52.480 --> 00:05:55.079
be singing a kunamatada every time like that too.

132
00:05:55.160 --> 00:05:58.160
We got the they're called oh crap, what are they called? Anyways,

133
00:05:58.199 --> 00:05:59.800
it's a little like the box. Have you seen that?

134
00:06:01.120 --> 00:06:03.600
So it's like this little box looks like a speaker, right,

135
00:06:03.600 --> 00:06:05.639
and then you get these little toys and then you

136
00:06:05.680 --> 00:06:07.319
set the toy on top of it and then it

137
00:06:07.360 --> 00:06:10.319
plays like an hour or two of like content like stories.

138
00:06:11.800 --> 00:06:14.959
Sib on there. That's exactly that's exactly cool. Camera the

139
00:06:15.000 --> 00:06:18.240
hell they're called anyways, they're huge with kids right now

140
00:06:18.759 --> 00:06:20.519
and the kids that are a little older too. They've

141
00:06:20.560 --> 00:06:22.079
been around for a while now. Go to Target. There's

142
00:06:22.079 --> 00:06:24.839
a whole entire aisle dedicated to the boxes. Those little

143
00:06:24.839 --> 00:06:26.800
toys there, like seventeen bucks, like a piece too, and

144
00:06:26.839 --> 00:06:30.199
mostly Disney or just anything, mostly Disney. But then there's

145
00:06:30.240 --> 00:06:32.199
like a you know, a Blippy one, and there's like

146
00:06:32.199 --> 00:06:35.079
a Drastic Park one. Yeah, it looks like a YouTube

147
00:06:35.399 --> 00:06:39.079
YouTube guy. Oh really, but he's like massive. I think

148
00:06:39.120 --> 00:06:41.680
he sold like the Blippy franchise for like one hundred

149
00:06:41.680 --> 00:06:44.160
million dollars or something. You know what I mean, I'm stupid,

150
00:06:44.199 --> 00:06:45.480
but it all started on YouTube. Yeah.

151
00:06:45.560 --> 00:06:47.600
Yeah, that's a lot of those guys. Yeah, I think

152
00:06:47.680 --> 00:06:49.639
like Good Good, Like a lot of those guys don't

153
00:06:49.639 --> 00:06:50.879
own most of their company anymore.

154
00:06:51.319 --> 00:06:54.680
What's it called. Uh, they did like some forty five

155
00:06:54.680 --> 00:06:57.680
million dollars in crowdfunding for Good Good. Yeah, and like

156
00:06:57.720 --> 00:06:59.519
I think Peyton Manning bought like a fat.

157
00:06:59.519 --> 00:07:02.600
Yeah, they sold like a fat chunk at the at

158
00:07:02.600 --> 00:07:05.759
the right time, so they like secured their life and

159
00:07:05.800 --> 00:07:07.920
now they're just like characters, which I think is actually

160
00:07:07.920 --> 00:07:09.000
smart business wise because then you.

161
00:07:09.040 --> 00:07:11.439
Got to do all and also that their views are

162
00:07:11.480 --> 00:07:13.759
just plummeting, so it's like they got in and got

163
00:07:13.800 --> 00:07:15.360
their money and got their money. They don't have to

164
00:07:15.360 --> 00:07:17.680
worry about that anymore. Yeah, who cares?

165
00:07:17.680 --> 00:07:21.160
At that point, we have gathered together today with our

166
00:07:21.160 --> 00:07:26.360
friend Dean Sidorus, who's been reviewing documentary content with us

167
00:07:26.360 --> 00:07:30.839
for off and on for years now. Yeah, and I'm

168
00:07:30.920 --> 00:07:33.399
Jim and that's Mike, and we're here to talk about

169
00:07:33.720 --> 00:07:39.360
Court of Gold from Netflix, the series documenting largely documenting

170
00:07:39.399 --> 00:07:45.279
the US Olympic basketball team sort of dream team tuish maybe,

171
00:07:47.560 --> 00:07:52.319
Uh the point is made in this that, uh, these

172
00:07:52.319 --> 00:07:54.399
guys actually had to be better than the dream Team

173
00:07:54.480 --> 00:07:56.839
because the West the rest of the world has gotten better.

174
00:07:58.000 --> 00:08:00.720
Yeah. Yeah, yeah, it's definitely about the internettional game. It's

175
00:08:00.759 --> 00:08:02.800
more about more teams than I thought too.

176
00:08:02.800 --> 00:08:04.600
Because I thought it was gonna be strictly like, yeah.

177
00:08:04.519 --> 00:08:07.120
Lebron right, And it does make sense to like film

178
00:08:07.160 --> 00:08:09.879
the ship ton of Lebron and Steph because they're not

179
00:08:10.279 --> 00:08:12.040
that they're on their last leg. They're playing great, but

180
00:08:12.079 --> 00:08:15.360
they're obviously they can't play another ten years, you know,

181
00:08:15.600 --> 00:08:17.879
Like same with Brady, right, Like Brady won a Super Bowl,

182
00:08:17.879 --> 00:08:19.720
but and it was like, oh, he's got more. I'm like,

183
00:08:19.920 --> 00:08:22.519
I just don't diminishing returns on that. Yeah, you know,

184
00:08:22.560 --> 00:08:25.879
he didn't have another five in him and Lebron now

185
00:08:25.920 --> 00:08:27.839
like he might just to get his other son in

186
00:08:27.839 --> 00:08:30.480
the League, which I think might be. I mean, he's

187
00:08:30.519 --> 00:08:32.080
already done the first ever right to be on the

188
00:08:32.080 --> 00:08:34.879
same team as your son, but to get his other

189
00:08:34.919 --> 00:08:37.519
son in. Their son's got one year in college and

190
00:08:37.720 --> 00:08:39.480
is really fucking good. So we'll likely go to the

191
00:08:39.559 --> 00:08:43.399
league better than what's his name, Ronnie? Very likely. I

192
00:08:43.440 --> 00:08:45.240
love right when through glasses right, I don't know if

193
00:08:45.279 --> 00:08:47.320
you're talking shit on the podcast, are off on Browny,

194
00:08:47.399 --> 00:08:49.360
But right after you did that, he goes fucking nuts,

195
00:08:49.360 --> 00:08:51.039
and I love that. I love the karma Dean.

196
00:08:51.720 --> 00:08:54.679
He when he scored seventeen on a in a loss

197
00:08:54.759 --> 00:08:56.519
on garbage time, No.

198
00:08:56.399 --> 00:09:00.000
He played thirty minutes. Yeah, he played the whole game.

199
00:09:00.200 --> 00:09:01.960
And then and then he dropped like fifty in the

200
00:09:02.039 --> 00:09:02.600
G League.

201
00:09:03.360 --> 00:09:06.519
Dude, Bronnie's not good. I think he was on here,

202
00:09:07.720 --> 00:09:09.039
but then they brought up his stats and he had

203
00:09:09.039 --> 00:09:10.759
like the worst shooting stats of like like.

204
00:09:10.799 --> 00:09:12.159
His early percentage was hard.

205
00:09:12.200 --> 00:09:14.360
But that's so hard, bro, That's when we were talking

206
00:09:14.360 --> 00:09:14.679
about it.

207
00:09:14.840 --> 00:09:17.919
It's so hard to like come in for one play

208
00:09:17.960 --> 00:09:19.600
and chuck the ball up and make a shot like

209
00:09:19.639 --> 00:09:20.080
it's shots.

210
00:09:20.080 --> 00:09:22.320
Also, like all the pressure of possible.

211
00:09:22.399 --> 00:09:24.960
Yeah, they give him like no reason to succeed and

212
00:09:24.960 --> 00:09:26.320
then they finally I just like hating.

213
00:09:26.159 --> 00:09:28.159
On Brownie because it's easy, but I like it. It's

214
00:09:28.159 --> 00:09:28.879
more of like a joke.

215
00:09:29.120 --> 00:09:31.080
I know. That's why I like him, because he's the underdog.

216
00:09:31.159 --> 00:09:32.679
You know how hard that's gonna be. It's gonna be

217
00:09:32.720 --> 00:09:33.039
so sad.

218
00:09:33.080 --> 00:09:34.039
It's the Shadows shot.

219
00:09:34.120 --> 00:09:36.240
But Bryce is good. Bryce is good. Who knows if

220
00:09:36.240 --> 00:09:37.120
he'll be better.

221
00:09:37.399 --> 00:09:38.159
We'll see.

222
00:09:38.960 --> 00:09:41.279
Because Bronnie didn't really get his college career, you know.

223
00:09:41.480 --> 00:09:43.519
Yeah, Bronni's just kind of stiff. That's why I don't

224
00:09:43.519 --> 00:09:45.200
like about it. He doesn't really float, bro.

225
00:09:45.279 --> 00:09:47.799
You should watch some highlights that they'd be floating. I

226
00:09:47.879 --> 00:09:51.240
watch him, dude, he floating, maybe yacking on every fucking

227
00:09:51.240 --> 00:09:51.840
G leaguer.

228
00:09:52.279 --> 00:09:56.120
He's good G League though, is caught his trash basketball.

229
00:09:57.679 --> 00:09:58.960
The G League is so bad.

230
00:10:00.080 --> 00:10:03.759
Whinny perspective perspective Anthony Davis and the g those guys

231
00:10:03.799 --> 00:10:07.440
could fucking hoop man, They can fucking hoop. Gabe Vincent,

232
00:10:07.480 --> 00:10:09.759
I think it was you see Santa Barbara like put

233
00:10:09.840 --> 00:10:11.399
on thirty there and then he goes and wins a

234
00:10:11.480 --> 00:10:14.879
chip with starting with Lebron and the Lakers like they're

235
00:10:14.919 --> 00:10:16.039
good down there.

236
00:10:15.559 --> 00:10:19.120
But the percentage of there's like there's the level in

237
00:10:19.200 --> 00:10:22.120
g lee, though is so imbalanced. There's like really really

238
00:10:22.120 --> 00:10:25.519
good guys, and then there's guys that like just college level.

239
00:10:26.200 --> 00:10:30.159
They're elite, elite college. But that's it's actually not that different.

240
00:10:30.360 --> 00:10:32.240
It just shows you how good the NBA is.

241
00:10:32.519 --> 00:10:34.159
Well, we know they're grey. It's one of the hardest,

242
00:10:34.279 --> 00:10:35.519
second hardest sports to get into.

243
00:10:35.639 --> 00:10:38.919
Right, So then Browny's good.

244
00:10:39.240 --> 00:10:41.000
His dad owns half of the Lakers.

245
00:10:41.120 --> 00:10:42.120
He dropped nineteen.

246
00:10:43.399 --> 00:10:44.759
You can't just like make that up.

247
00:10:45.840 --> 00:10:48.159
Yeah, it was in whould they play.

248
00:10:48.679 --> 00:10:53.240
Now he's going to the defensive. He's got Damian Lillard gardenal.

249
00:10:54.399 --> 00:11:01.159
It was the Bucks. Okay, he's good, dude, No good. Yeah,

250
00:11:01.200 --> 00:11:04.159
they did lose, but they's good. I wouldn't say he's good.

251
00:11:04.639 --> 00:11:06.559
Maybe he's getting better. You can say, oh, he's getting

252
00:11:06.600 --> 00:11:07.000
way better.

253
00:11:07.120 --> 00:11:09.519
He did pick ups. I did see the clip of

254
00:11:09.600 --> 00:11:10.159
him cooking up.

255
00:11:10.559 --> 00:11:12.080
Oh he's balling, he's balling.

256
00:11:12.720 --> 00:11:15.600
Long story short, Uh, yeah, I thought I thought it

257
00:11:15.639 --> 00:11:19.480
would be the first thought on this whole thing having

258
00:11:19.480 --> 00:11:21.960
to do with Stephen Lebron is something with this new

259
00:11:22.240 --> 00:11:24.960
generation because I talk a lot of shit on like

260
00:11:25.039 --> 00:11:27.759
Zoomers and like basketball fans and shit, because they just

261
00:11:27.799 --> 00:11:33.240
like don't like even powerlifting, like they don't really learn

262
00:11:33.440 --> 00:11:36.600
history and tradition of sports. I feel like in general,

263
00:11:36.600 --> 00:11:39.080
and obviously this is a large stereotype, but I do

264
00:11:39.120 --> 00:11:41.399
find it very common in like the gen Z. And again,

265
00:11:41.440 --> 00:11:43.919
of course I'm a millennial, so then you always hate

266
00:11:43.919 --> 00:11:45.759
on the gen behind you or whatever. But it does

267
00:11:45.759 --> 00:11:47.600
seem like a common thread, like they just don't care,

268
00:11:47.720 --> 00:11:50.960
you know, so like instead of like going and studying Jordan,

269
00:11:51.159 --> 00:11:53.200
they'll just say, like, well Lebron's better, you know, and

270
00:11:53.200 --> 00:11:55.600
they just don't know what's going on. And that argument's fine,

271
00:11:55.600 --> 00:11:58.720
but back it up. But one thing I think they

272
00:11:58.799 --> 00:12:04.000
do really good that's positive is they give people flowers

273
00:12:04.039 --> 00:12:06.600
while they're still getting after it, you know, where like

274
00:12:06.679 --> 00:12:09.000
Jordan's getting hated on on the Wizards, you know, the

275
00:12:09.039 --> 00:12:11.519
whole league's hating on him for no reason, and that

276
00:12:11.639 --> 00:12:12.039
was weird.

277
00:12:12.039 --> 00:12:13.440
I wouldn't I wouldn't saw him.

278
00:12:13.440 --> 00:12:16.720
Probably's still averaging like twenty five points. He's forty years old. Yeah,

279
00:12:16.759 --> 00:12:19.600
you know, like, yeah, the Wizard sucked, but whatever, that's

280
00:12:19.600 --> 00:12:20.279
really what it was.

281
00:12:20.360 --> 00:12:22.679
Yeah, but they don't show like the team at the time. Yeah,

282
00:12:22.720 --> 00:12:23.240
it was weird.

283
00:12:23.320 --> 00:12:26.440
But and there's obviously negative fallout from the Bulls and whatever,

284
00:12:26.519 --> 00:12:28.759
but like at least people show like no, like this

285
00:12:28.919 --> 00:12:31.000
is awesome. Lebron and stuff are still here, like we

286
00:12:31.039 --> 00:12:31.840
have to like cherish.

287
00:12:31.840 --> 00:12:33.919
That was also at a time too, where like people

288
00:12:34.000 --> 00:12:36.759
didn't leave teams right like they do they flip flop

289
00:12:36.799 --> 00:12:39.440
teams every year now, which changes every That was like

290
00:12:39.480 --> 00:12:41.320
that changed that the people were accustomed to that, Like

291
00:12:41.360 --> 00:12:43.679
people couldn't get past the fact that Jordan wasn't wearing

292
00:12:43.679 --> 00:12:46.080
a Bulls jersey right and they just freaked out.

293
00:12:46.399 --> 00:12:49.279
It's I think it changed this international stuff too, where

294
00:12:49.320 --> 00:12:51.519
like all these guys are homies, you know, which is

295
00:12:51.559 --> 00:12:54.039
like I think bad for sports in a lot of sense,

296
00:12:54.039 --> 00:12:56.240
Like you don't have to like have a hatred in

297
00:12:56.279 --> 00:12:58.879
your heart for somebody, but being so connected to the

298
00:12:58.960 --> 00:13:01.480
dude you're about to go up again against does change

299
00:13:01.519 --> 00:13:02.559
the dynamic of it, you know.

300
00:13:02.639 --> 00:13:04.279
Like going back to the UFC, which I heard is.

301
00:13:04.279 --> 00:13:08.759
Absolutely tanking, is the fight's always better when they have

302
00:13:08.919 --> 00:13:11.600
some squabble, like everyone hates you know what I mean.

303
00:13:11.679 --> 00:13:13.919
Like if they're friends, like it's a good fight, you know,

304
00:13:14.000 --> 00:13:15.679
but like if they're like dapping up and all that.

305
00:13:15.679 --> 00:13:17.440
You're like, all right, that's cool, but you want them

306
00:13:17.440 --> 00:13:20.799
to kind of hate each other, right, Like that builds

307
00:13:20.840 --> 00:13:22.919
the story and it builds like the fight itself. And

308
00:13:22.960 --> 00:13:25.759
I think it's the same thing with basketball because they yeah,

309
00:13:25.799 --> 00:13:27.600
it's a team sport, but it's always these one on

310
00:13:27.600 --> 00:13:31.759
one matchups. And this international part kind of shows that

311
00:13:32.399 --> 00:13:35.399
the good side of it because there's so much international

312
00:13:35.440 --> 00:13:40.039
pride for every team, and especially internationally. I would say

313
00:13:40.120 --> 00:13:43.159
rather than America, these guys do grow up with each other.

314
00:13:43.480 --> 00:13:47.240
They're they're playing in the under you know, under fourteens together,

315
00:13:47.279 --> 00:13:49.600
they're playing with the under eighteens together. We're in America,

316
00:13:49.679 --> 00:13:52.360
they kind of do, but there's so much talent. There's

317
00:13:52.440 --> 00:13:55.720
kids that are on our U eighteen that might not

318
00:13:55.720 --> 00:13:57.960
even like go D one, like something happens and they

319
00:13:58.000 --> 00:13:58.679
like fall off.

320
00:13:59.080 --> 00:14:03.120
There's also just so much money in America with private leagues, right,

321
00:14:03.200 --> 00:14:05.399
so there's all they're playing all spread out.

322
00:14:05.519 --> 00:14:07.919
They're playing elsewhere where was it France? They talked about

323
00:14:07.960 --> 00:14:10.360
even going to like an institute, right, And the joke

324
00:14:10.440 --> 00:14:12.799
is China's always like recruiting five year olds with the

325
00:14:12.840 --> 00:14:14.320
right limb length to be gymnasts.

326
00:14:14.360 --> 00:14:14.720
Or whatever.

327
00:14:15.200 --> 00:14:18.039
But that's the thing everywhere. Shout out my boy Clint Steinel,

328
00:14:18.080 --> 00:14:21.080
who just retired this year pro basketball player in Australia.

329
00:14:21.679 --> 00:14:25.200
He went to AIS like Australian Institute of Sport. When

330
00:14:25.519 --> 00:14:27.679
when you go to junior high and you're like a prospect,

331
00:14:27.759 --> 00:14:29.879
it's just like a high school or like a prep school.

332
00:14:30.159 --> 00:14:32.759
But all the best go there. And he went there,

333
00:14:32.919 --> 00:14:35.240
became great, came here, went to Saint Mary's, went to

334
00:14:35.240 --> 00:14:37.360
the Sweet sixteen whatever and then played pro there and

335
00:14:37.720 --> 00:14:40.159
just retired I think like the last week week before.

336
00:14:41.679 --> 00:14:43.960
But even that, like we don't have that. We don't

337
00:14:43.960 --> 00:14:46.120
have it like an institute. We have like the Olympic

338
00:14:46.159 --> 00:14:48.519
Training Center, but that's like for weird ass sports like

339
00:14:48.559 --> 00:14:50.120
the fencers and the weightlifters.

340
00:14:50.240 --> 00:14:52.320
Yet there they kick the weightlifters out.

341
00:14:52.200 --> 00:14:53.559
And they go. Yeah, they go once a year for

342
00:14:53.600 --> 00:14:55.240
a camp. They don't even like live there or get

343
00:14:55.240 --> 00:14:57.919
paid to go there, where I'd assume like every other

344
00:14:58.039 --> 00:15:00.320
first world nation had that.

345
00:15:00.559 --> 00:15:03.399
Yeah, the weightlifters actually lived there, which is which is weird.

346
00:15:04.120 --> 00:15:08.080
Yeah, yeah, the outlier, the fucking weirdos. They're weightlifters are

347
00:15:08.080 --> 00:15:11.600
even weird in Olympic sports. They make fencers and shit

348
00:15:11.679 --> 00:15:14.120
look normal. Yeah, yeah they're weird.

349
00:15:14.159 --> 00:15:14.519
They're weird.

350
00:15:14.559 --> 00:15:16.600
Yeah, they're weird. I mean powerlifters are fucking weird too.

351
00:15:16.600 --> 00:15:20.080
We're just not legit. But like I do wonder if

352
00:15:20.080 --> 00:15:23.559
that hurts or helps America, Like obviously there's so many

353
00:15:23.600 --> 00:15:26.879
people like how would you choose them? But yeah, we

354
00:15:26.919 --> 00:15:29.799
have prep schools are becoming really popular now. And then

355
00:15:31.080 --> 00:15:35.159
there's basically a G League team that's all the best prospects.

356
00:15:35.200 --> 00:15:37.679
I forgot the name of it. They just started that.

357
00:15:38.320 --> 00:15:40.360
So instead of like getting signed to a G League team,

358
00:15:40.360 --> 00:15:42.360
they take like all the best eighteen and nineteen year

359
00:15:42.360 --> 00:15:44.240
olds and put them on a squad that's kind of

360
00:15:44.519 --> 00:15:45.279
in the range.

361
00:15:45.679 --> 00:15:47.600
Yeah, it's gonna be so confusing on like where to

362
00:15:47.759 --> 00:15:50.080
go if you're like, it's so easy to get lost

363
00:15:50.120 --> 00:15:52.039
in modern day.

364
00:15:51.879 --> 00:15:56.159
Scotty Pippen's son just left his team and entered the

365
00:15:56.200 --> 00:16:02.159
Portal Mid Sweet sixteen tournament. Hmm, wow, he just left

366
00:16:02.159 --> 00:16:03.080
Michigan yesterday.

367
00:16:04.120 --> 00:16:05.519
Is that gonna hurt them in the next game?

368
00:16:05.679 --> 00:16:08.000
Nah, he kind of sucks. He doesn't suck, but he's

369
00:16:08.039 --> 00:16:08.960
not getting a lot of minutes.

370
00:16:09.440 --> 00:16:10.960
That's Friday, right, the rest of those games.

371
00:16:10.960 --> 00:16:13.759
I think tomorrow there's most of them both both both

372
00:16:13.799 --> 00:16:15.559
both days, so I don't know when Michigan is. But

373
00:16:16.159 --> 00:16:20.000
you know, like he literally leaves mid to talk about

374
00:16:20.120 --> 00:16:23.200
not having loyalty to Jersey's teams or anything mid tournament

375
00:16:23.799 --> 00:16:25.559
because once you enter the portal, I don't think you

376
00:16:25.600 --> 00:16:26.360
can play for your team.

377
00:16:26.399 --> 00:16:28.600
So he's just done. So you're strange.

378
00:16:28.600 --> 00:16:30.279
He just threw in the white flag and again he

379
00:16:30.279 --> 00:16:32.480
wasn't gonna a ton of minutes. But yeah, it's fucking weird,

380
00:16:33.519 --> 00:16:35.000
Like again the gen Z shit.

381
00:16:34.960 --> 00:16:36.840
Maybe because that's why us bitter about it.

382
00:16:36.960 --> 00:16:39.000
Probably No, I'm sure there's some negative shit going on

383
00:16:39.080 --> 00:16:43.279
with coach and whatever. I am interested to watch the

384
00:16:43.320 --> 00:16:45.039
rest of this to see if they talk about any

385
00:16:45.039 --> 00:16:47.120
of that, because it was all sunshine and rainbows, like

386
00:16:47.120 --> 00:16:49.120
Steve Kurr Mention is not playing people, but there's a

387
00:16:49.159 --> 00:16:50.440
ton of drama.

388
00:16:52.120 --> 00:16:59.600
That goes on further, Well, how many episodes do you

389
00:16:59.639 --> 00:17:00.240
guys watch?

390
00:17:00.440 --> 00:17:01.200
Really watched two?

391
00:17:01.399 --> 00:17:02.320
I think I watched two and a half.

392
00:17:02.840 --> 00:17:04.920
I'm going to finish it for I did finish it.

393
00:17:05.119 --> 00:17:06.319
I don't finish it. It is.

394
00:17:07.160 --> 00:17:09.799
I think it's really good, you know, in general, I

395
00:17:09.839 --> 00:17:13.279
think that, but there is a particular rhythm to it

396
00:17:13.319 --> 00:17:15.079
that does get a little bit repetitive.

397
00:17:15.599 --> 00:17:18.599
It's like it's from what I've seen so far, it's

398
00:17:18.640 --> 00:17:24.240
it's your standard Netflix style, like full swing the golf one.

399
00:17:24.359 --> 00:17:27.079
Yeah, I think it's a little bit, but I want

400
00:17:27.079 --> 00:17:28.720
to gets a little bit better than full swing, to

401
00:17:28.720 --> 00:17:29.119
be honest.

402
00:17:29.119 --> 00:17:31.119
And I wonder if that rhythm's on purpose because that's

403
00:17:31.200 --> 00:17:32.240
the life they live.

404
00:17:34.039 --> 00:17:36.279
No, I mean, I mean the rhythm of the episode

405
00:17:36.279 --> 00:17:37.559
of how it's cut together.

406
00:17:37.559 --> 00:17:39.279
Right, And so what I'm saying is when you're one

407
00:17:39.359 --> 00:17:42.000
of them athletes, that is the rhythm of your life.

408
00:17:42.559 --> 00:17:44.960
But they're not really they're not following the athletes all

409
00:17:45.000 --> 00:17:48.839
the time because they they may bounce around among teams, they.

410
00:17:48.599 --> 00:17:51.200
Are same when you're in tournaments like that. The rhythm

411
00:17:51.319 --> 00:17:53.160
of life is the same. So I'm wondering if there's

412
00:17:53.160 --> 00:17:55.440
an underlying there like same with this one, or if

413
00:17:55.440 --> 00:17:58.640
you've watched Hard Knocks. Like Hard Knocks, you could say

414
00:17:58.640 --> 00:18:00.720
the same thing. It's really boring because because it's a rhythm,

415
00:18:01.000 --> 00:18:03.200
but that's how like athletes lives work.

416
00:18:03.480 --> 00:18:05.759
Yeah, yeah, that's that's what all they know and all

417
00:18:05.759 --> 00:18:05.960
they do.

418
00:18:06.079 --> 00:18:08.920
Right, you go, you travel, practice, prep, watch the next

419
00:18:08.920 --> 00:18:11.359
team practice, again play the next team.

420
00:18:12.279 --> 00:18:13.079
And that's what this was.

421
00:18:13.160 --> 00:18:15.000
At least the first three episodes were like that. It

422
00:18:15.039 --> 00:18:17.079
was like Canada, who they're playing a little history on it,

423
00:18:17.119 --> 00:18:20.640
why they're playing practice for it, prep for it, go. Yeah,

424
00:18:20.960 --> 00:18:23.519
like that's how that's all major sports work.

425
00:18:23.960 --> 00:18:25.480
I might have started the third one because that was

426
00:18:25.480 --> 00:18:28.079
all about the Canada team, right, Yeah, yeah, so I

427
00:18:28.079 --> 00:18:30.880
did start the third. That was actually, uh cool because

428
00:18:30.920 --> 00:18:33.039
like Steve Nash is like one of my heroes. Yeah,

429
00:18:33.079 --> 00:18:34.759
and I didn't realize that he had like that got

430
00:18:34.799 --> 00:18:35.720
that guy was his godson.

431
00:18:35.799 --> 00:18:39.160
Yeah, RJ bar RJ for a long time. But yeah,

432
00:18:39.200 --> 00:18:42.799
Steve nashbying like obviously Canadian, obviously maybe a skin tone,

433
00:18:42.799 --> 00:18:45.119
but two the style of basketway he played. I played

434
00:18:45.119 --> 00:18:47.240
a lot of it, played scrappy basketball, and he was

435
00:18:47.279 --> 00:18:49.519
just so like smooth with it. He's not very gifted.

436
00:18:49.519 --> 00:18:51.759
He could barely dunk. And then he went to Santa

437
00:18:51.799 --> 00:18:53.680
Clara and I wanted to go to Santa Clara like

438
00:18:53.720 --> 00:18:55.519
that was that was that was the game that they're

439
00:18:55.599 --> 00:18:57.400
Jason Kidd. But Berkeley was a little out of reach.

440
00:18:58.599 --> 00:19:00.440
I didn't know he was his godfather, which because the

441
00:19:00.599 --> 00:19:02.200
king's a lot of trouble back then.

442
00:19:02.240 --> 00:19:04.039
Bro, he put a lot of pain on a lot

443
00:19:04.039 --> 00:19:06.240
of folks, a lot of pain on a lot of folks.

444
00:19:06.519 --> 00:19:09.920
That that, uh, just basketball lore is crazy. Like I

445
00:19:09.920 --> 00:19:13.079
think his first year with the Phoenix Sons, you have

446
00:19:13.160 --> 00:19:16.000
like three of the best point guards in the history

447
00:19:16.000 --> 00:19:19.160
of basketball in the exact same team. You have Steve Nash,

448
00:19:19.359 --> 00:19:23.319
Jason Kidd, and Kevin Johnson all on the same fucking roster.

449
00:19:24.359 --> 00:19:24.759
Yeah.

450
00:19:24.799 --> 00:19:27.039
Like the picture of that looks fake like because you

451
00:19:27.039 --> 00:19:28.839
don't understand like the timeline of it, and you're like,

452
00:19:28.839 --> 00:19:31.960
what the hell is going on? And they're old nor

453
00:19:32.000 --> 00:19:34.720
cow guys. Yeah, I mean, obviously Steve Nash from Canada,

454
00:19:34.759 --> 00:19:37.279
but same thing. He went to Santa Clara. Uh, I

455
00:19:37.279 --> 00:19:37.839
don't even know.

456
00:19:37.759 --> 00:19:40.759
Where kes mayor or the governor, what was he? Mayor?

457
00:19:40.799 --> 00:19:45.039
Mayor mayor went to Sack High And then I don't

458
00:19:45.079 --> 00:19:48.279
know where Jason Kidd grew up. He obviously went to Berkeley.

459
00:19:48.400 --> 00:19:50.559
He might I don't think he's from Oakland.

460
00:19:50.640 --> 00:19:53.799
But he might be. Who's he coaching now, Jay kids

461
00:19:53.799 --> 00:19:54.720
in Dallas? Dallas?

462
00:19:54.880 --> 00:19:58.599
Yeah, yeah, it's supposed to. Bibby just took a Yeah,

463
00:19:58.640 --> 00:20:01.240
Mike Bibby just took the sacks stay eight. Uh head

464
00:20:01.240 --> 00:20:02.559
basket crazy.

465
00:20:02.599 --> 00:20:05.279
I saw that there. Here's funny, Like, are they gonna

466
00:20:05.279 --> 00:20:07.480
get a new stadium then, because I don't know that

467
00:20:07.480 --> 00:20:09.480
place sits on twelve hundred people.

468
00:20:09.559 --> 00:20:12.640
Yeah, you gotta start winning, right, like the football team

469
00:20:12.680 --> 00:20:15.039
started winning and they're already making a new stadium. That's

470
00:20:15.039 --> 00:20:16.799
two new football stadiums in my lifetime.

471
00:20:16.839 --> 00:20:19.079
That has one good season two years ago.

472
00:20:19.160 --> 00:20:21.599
No, I think they've won league like three of the

473
00:20:21.640 --> 00:20:22.400
last six years.

474
00:20:23.200 --> 00:20:24.720
Jason kids in Dallas.

475
00:20:25.839 --> 00:20:27.880
No, no, yeah, yeah, yeah, you grew up in Oakland.

476
00:20:28.160 --> 00:20:29.839
He grew up in Oakland, right, Yeah, he is straight

477
00:20:29.920 --> 00:20:32.480
norcl That's why he went to Berkeley. Obviously, you don't

478
00:20:32.519 --> 00:20:34.640
like really choose. You choose Berkeley, but we don't really

479
00:20:34.799 --> 00:20:37.000
Jaylen Brown's from there too. That's some of the drama.

480
00:20:37.279 --> 00:20:39.359
Hard to get into Berkeley. I didn't realize.

481
00:20:39.480 --> 00:20:41.799
Well, it's one of the fewer schools too, and who

482
00:20:41.799 --> 00:20:44.119
knows nowadays again with the nil, I can only speak

483
00:20:44.119 --> 00:20:46.200
from when I was in college and like hanging out

484
00:20:46.240 --> 00:20:48.480
with you know, top level basketball guys.

485
00:20:48.599 --> 00:20:49.000
Uh.

486
00:20:49.519 --> 00:20:51.400
One of the fewer schools that kind of kept their

487
00:20:51.960 --> 00:20:54.920
academic standard too, like they would creep in people when

488
00:20:54.920 --> 00:20:56.440
they could, but not as much as you know, there's

489
00:20:56.480 --> 00:20:58.599
some school like USC's kind of notorious.

490
00:20:58.680 --> 00:21:02.400
Stanford is notorious for really high I learned recently that

491
00:21:02.440 --> 00:21:05.680
the IVY League doesn't do scholarships.

492
00:21:05.920 --> 00:21:09.359
Yeah, a lot of schools, but for sports. Yeah, academics only. Yeah,

493
00:21:09.640 --> 00:21:10.720
I mean obviously.

494
00:21:10.480 --> 00:21:12.039
You have to pay for your kid to go play

495
00:21:12.079 --> 00:21:14.160
for fucking Stanford or something. Shit.

496
00:21:14.359 --> 00:21:16.920
No, they're like sneaking an academic scully.

497
00:21:17.319 --> 00:21:18.839
Is that what they're doing. Yeah, that may seem like

498
00:21:18.839 --> 00:21:21.039
that their parents are paying.

499
00:21:21.559 --> 00:21:24.079
I'm sure plenty. But even at like a regular D

500
00:21:24.160 --> 00:21:26.160
one school, you know, like a full ride's only like

501
00:21:26.200 --> 00:21:28.279
five dudes, you know, there's twelve on the team.

502
00:21:28.519 --> 00:21:30.240
There's a lot of dudes paying. Yeah, one hundred k

503
00:21:30.359 --> 00:21:33.200
to go? Is that Harvard or Yale?

504
00:21:33.240 --> 00:21:38.680
They just did family uh family income lesson two hundred

505
00:21:38.680 --> 00:21:40.039
thousand dollars free tuition.

506
00:21:40.160 --> 00:21:42.599
Yeah yeah, if you if you otherwise qualify.

507
00:21:42.680 --> 00:21:45.880
Yeah, I forgot which one I heard the interesting Yeah,

508
00:21:45.920 --> 00:21:47.519
which just shows you what the standard of living is

509
00:21:47.559 --> 00:21:48.039
in America.

510
00:21:48.200 --> 00:21:50.599
Yeah, oh my god, under.

511
00:21:50.400 --> 00:21:52.759
Two hundred his free education?

512
00:21:52.880 --> 00:21:56.039
Yeah. Uh, well, when you go to the grocery store

513
00:21:56.079 --> 00:21:58.119
and you get half a grocery bag for seventy dollars.

514
00:21:58.160 --> 00:22:03.640
Like, so, something I noticed having watched the whole the

515
00:22:03.720 --> 00:22:06.359
whole thing is that number one.

516
00:22:06.359 --> 00:22:09.240
It's kind of a love letter to Kevin Durant. Yeah,

517
00:22:09.319 --> 00:22:11.680
the whole, the whole thing is very much a love letter.

518
00:22:11.960 --> 00:22:12.880
That was my favorite part.

519
00:22:13.279 --> 00:22:14.720
Yeah, yeah, that was my favorite part.

520
00:22:14.839 --> 00:22:17.079
Because he's hated on was my second favorite party.

521
00:22:17.279 --> 00:22:18.160
Everyone hates on him.

522
00:22:18.200 --> 00:22:19.920
He has such a bad rap to the world.

523
00:22:21.160 --> 00:22:23.880
But every you know, I'm obviously like a basketball nerd,

524
00:22:23.880 --> 00:22:27.599
and I'll watch like random discrete interviews and follow the

525
00:22:27.640 --> 00:22:30.680
lore and whatever like every single person, which they do

526
00:22:30.759 --> 00:22:34.000
display already in this like he just loves basketball. He

527
00:22:34.039 --> 00:22:36.279
doesn't give a fuck about anything else. He's not married,

528
00:22:36.519 --> 00:22:39.319
he doesn't want to be married, Like he just wants

529
00:22:39.319 --> 00:22:39.759
to hoop.

530
00:22:39.880 --> 00:22:41.920
I think we know why everybody hates on Durant.

531
00:22:42.119 --> 00:22:43.480
There's definitely reasons.

532
00:22:43.960 --> 00:22:46.279
I love Durant. I'm a huge Durant fan, but like

533
00:22:46.279 --> 00:22:48.000
I'm just my favorite player on that team.

534
00:22:48.079 --> 00:22:49.680
Yeah, we talked about in the past too, Like he

535
00:22:49.799 --> 00:22:52.480
leaned into that too, where like the big drama.

536
00:22:52.319 --> 00:22:55.160
Was probably even like seven years ago, but he's never

537
00:22:55.279 --> 00:22:57.079
like he's people haven't gotten past that.

538
00:22:57.079 --> 00:23:00.319
I know, but he did so he basically talked shit.

539
00:23:00.720 --> 00:23:03.599
I think it was exact wheet was funny because someone's

540
00:23:03.599 --> 00:23:06.559
talking shit on Kevin and then instead of answering on

541
00:23:06.599 --> 00:23:09.519
his burner, he signed into his personal and he says

542
00:23:09.519 --> 00:23:11.240
something like, man, he had like a broken ankle and.

543
00:23:11.160 --> 00:23:12.240
He still did that or something.

544
00:23:12.279 --> 00:23:14.240
You know, like he defends himself, but it's from his

545
00:23:14.319 --> 00:23:16.640
own But then like the good part over the last

546
00:23:16.640 --> 00:23:19.240
eight years is he just he'll just combat people on

547
00:23:19.319 --> 00:23:22.680
his personal Now he just said He's like I made

548
00:23:22.680 --> 00:23:25.400
that up, but he is like defending himself in like

549
00:23:25.400 --> 00:23:29.079
a crazy scenario. And then now like he'll just go

550
00:23:29.119 --> 00:23:31.559
at fans like a good guy in like a trolley

551
00:23:31.599 --> 00:23:34.559
funny way. Yeah, just from his own account now, which

552
00:23:34.599 --> 00:23:36.039
so at least he like stepped into it.

553
00:23:36.000 --> 00:23:38.519
A little bit and responded to like random people. No,

554
00:23:38.599 --> 00:23:39.400
he'll go crazy.

555
00:23:39.480 --> 00:23:41.160
He's got kind of a dry sense of humor in

556
00:23:41.200 --> 00:23:43.240
this when he when when he talks, and it just

557
00:23:44.079 --> 00:23:46.799
he seems very like down to earth for somebody who

558
00:23:46.880 --> 00:23:50.039
is as good and as well compensated as he's been

559
00:23:50.160 --> 00:23:51.039
in the course of his life.

560
00:23:52.119 --> 00:23:54.680
I'm trying to think of the Netflix interviews, who was

561
00:23:54.759 --> 00:23:56.200
it they did like a black room and he just

562
00:23:56.200 --> 00:23:58.319
sat down with much celebrities. I don't think it's Seinfeld.

563
00:24:00.319 --> 00:24:04.400
Are like at a table maybe or even just chairs. Fuck,

564
00:24:04.640 --> 00:24:07.160
I think they did. They might have done Kanye. This

565
00:24:07.240 --> 00:24:08.680
is a little bit older. But they do a Kevin

566
00:24:08.759 --> 00:24:11.000
Durant one. And if you want to like Kevin Durant more,

567
00:24:11.359 --> 00:24:11.920
watch that.

568
00:24:12.279 --> 00:24:14.119
It's so good. Was it the late night guy?

569
00:24:14.240 --> 00:24:15.480
It might have been one of the late night guys.

570
00:24:15.480 --> 00:24:16.279
That's why I said, like.

571
00:24:16.319 --> 00:24:17.559
What's the one that threw out the beard?

572
00:24:17.680 --> 00:24:22.319
Oh, Letterman? It is Uh, it's letter the letter Yeah,

573
00:24:22.319 --> 00:24:24.680
the ones that he did after he left the show

574
00:24:24.920 --> 00:24:27.240
Letterman and Durant so good.

575
00:24:27.279 --> 00:24:28.119
He grew out that beard.

576
00:24:28.359 --> 00:24:31.119
Yeah, I guess my next guest needs no introduction.

577
00:24:31.200 --> 00:24:33.079
Yeah, I guess if you do that, if you go

578
00:24:33.160 --> 00:24:35.079
watch that and Durant, it's show good.

579
00:24:35.079 --> 00:24:38.079
Those are of them are really good. Interviews. Was wild

580
00:24:38.079 --> 00:24:38.440
because you.

581
00:24:38.440 --> 00:24:41.319
Get you get non TV Letterman. You know, he's always

582
00:24:41.319 --> 00:24:42.319
been a solid interview.

583
00:24:42.319 --> 00:24:44.920
That's what he really always wanted from those interviews. But

584
00:24:44.920 --> 00:24:47.759
then you realize when you get older, those interviews are

585
00:24:47.799 --> 00:24:51.440
just like proposity tours. Yea. Their ads when you're like,

586
00:24:51.480 --> 00:24:53.079
oh wait, they got a movie coming out that's why

587
00:24:53.079 --> 00:24:54.880
they're on here. That's what they're here to talk about.

588
00:24:55.720 --> 00:24:57.559
When you realize it's not about the content, it's just

589
00:24:57.559 --> 00:25:00.200
about money, and you don't watch them.

590
00:25:00.039 --> 00:25:02.960
You're taking these insanely talented comedians in like a Letterman

591
00:25:03.079 --> 00:25:06.079
or a Leno or whatever, and you're like diluting them

592
00:25:06.119 --> 00:25:09.039
because now you're on ABC and he can't say anything. Yeah,

593
00:25:09.200 --> 00:25:12.559
you know, like they're they're crazy intelligent dudes. I can't

594
00:25:12.599 --> 00:25:15.160
let loose and not that like these interviews he goes,

595
00:25:15.279 --> 00:25:16.440
you know, ballistic or anything.

596
00:25:16.480 --> 00:25:18.200
But watch Pikachu seven.

597
00:25:18.440 --> 00:25:21.119
Yeah, yeah, yeah, but the interview with Letterman and Durant

598
00:25:21.319 --> 00:25:22.160
so good.

599
00:25:22.640 --> 00:25:22.839
Yeah.

600
00:25:22.880 --> 00:25:25.359
I haven't seen that, but this I was. I was impressed.

601
00:25:25.400 --> 00:25:28.319
I don't think i'd ever seen him speak that much,

602
00:25:28.519 --> 00:25:29.839
just like kind of from the heart.

603
00:25:30.039 --> 00:25:31.079
Yeah, that was good.

604
00:25:31.279 --> 00:25:31.319
That.

605
00:25:32.039 --> 00:25:35.200
And there's toward the end, you know, especially in the

606
00:25:35.279 --> 00:25:38.680
last couple of episodes, there's a lot of Steph, a

607
00:25:38.720 --> 00:25:39.599
whole lot of stuff.

608
00:25:39.759 --> 00:25:40.519
Yeah, and he.

609
00:25:40.480 --> 00:25:42.359
Hasn't gotten to Steph yet, and I'm sure that's probably

610
00:25:42.359 --> 00:25:43.839
gonna well with Lebron.

611
00:25:44.079 --> 00:25:45.680
Well, no, the story ends with Steph.

612
00:25:45.720 --> 00:25:45.839
Eh.

613
00:25:46.079 --> 00:25:48.559
That's the thing. That's the crazy thing about this. There

614
00:25:48.599 --> 00:25:51.920
is almost no Lebron. I don't think there's any Lebron

615
00:25:52.359 --> 00:25:55.279
interview because they in the whole in the whole thing.

616
00:25:55.359 --> 00:25:58.000
Well, the storyline obviously follows the Olympics, and that's what

617
00:25:58.119 --> 00:26:00.319
happened in the Olympics. Like I watched as many games

618
00:26:00.319 --> 00:26:02.559
I could, and Steph just lights up the last two games.

619
00:26:02.839 --> 00:26:06.039
Oh, he goes absolutely bananas. So you like have to yeah,

620
00:26:06.119 --> 00:26:07.960
you have to like talk about Yeah, the story of

621
00:26:08.000 --> 00:26:12.599
the the story of the Olympics doesn't really involve Lebron much.

622
00:26:12.759 --> 00:26:13.960
Yeah, but that's kind of like.

623
00:26:14.240 --> 00:26:19.680
One game that that that the the semi final game,

624
00:26:19.799 --> 00:26:22.039
the right before the oh.

625
00:26:21.920 --> 00:26:23.240
He puts up like thirty something.

626
00:26:23.400 --> 00:26:25.440
Yeah, but even that, like he had a game like

627
00:26:25.519 --> 00:26:27.440
it takes a different role the whole time, and he's

628
00:26:27.440 --> 00:26:29.519
taking a different role in his career too, right, Like

629
00:26:29.559 --> 00:26:32.000
that's how you can't like really argue him. And here's

630
00:26:32.039 --> 00:26:34.480
the unk Now that's like not that, but just like

631
00:26:34.519 --> 00:26:36.880
even like this, the way he plays is so different

632
00:26:36.880 --> 00:26:38.720
than he's more of a Magic Johnson than he is

633
00:26:38.720 --> 00:26:41.640
a Michael Jordan. So like the whole comparisons are off.

634
00:26:41.720 --> 00:26:43.720
You know, like if you're comparing Jordan, you have to

635
00:26:43.720 --> 00:26:46.599
compare Jordan to like obviously Kobe more like a Durant.

636
00:26:46.920 --> 00:26:49.200
STEP's kind of his own human STEP's more like a

637
00:26:49.240 --> 00:26:52.119
Steve Nash evolved, you know. So like people make all

638
00:26:52.160 --> 00:26:54.599
these comparisons, and same with Lebron, like he's always kind

639
00:26:54.599 --> 00:26:57.160
of not mind being quiet, like the championship they won

640
00:26:57.799 --> 00:27:00.799
in Cleveland, Like Kyrie was the guy Kyrie bat shit

641
00:27:01.039 --> 00:27:02.960
And that's more drama too, Like Kyrie didn't get on

642
00:27:02.960 --> 00:27:04.759
the team, didn't even get an invite.

643
00:27:04.880 --> 00:27:05.680
Yeah.

644
00:27:05.759 --> 00:27:08.319
Jalen Brown's another big one, and he's been super vocal

645
00:27:08.319 --> 00:27:09.920
about it. He said, if you're not signed with Nike,

646
00:27:10.319 --> 00:27:13.400
you're not going there. He's a Berkeley guy. Yeah. And

647
00:27:13.440 --> 00:27:15.880
then obviously the Jason Tatum drama. Did they ever coover that?

648
00:27:16.160 --> 00:27:16.319
No?

649
00:27:16.480 --> 00:27:18.599
Yeah, see that like that was the biggest news thing

650
00:27:18.640 --> 00:27:18.920
I thought.

651
00:27:18.960 --> 00:27:19.920
Tatum was on that team.

652
00:27:20.000 --> 00:27:21.759
Yeah, and he didn't play a single minute in the

653
00:27:21.839 --> 00:27:22.359
entire attorney.

654
00:27:23.359 --> 00:27:25.440
They never touch on that at all. Obviously, this is

655
00:27:25.480 --> 00:27:27.279
all you know, as much sunshine and ring as as

656
00:27:27.279 --> 00:27:29.480
probably and in the beginning playing a single minutes weird.

657
00:27:30.359 --> 00:27:32.400
So it is hard and Kurt they lead it up

658
00:27:32.440 --> 00:27:34.240
in episode one or two, and that's why I thought

659
00:27:34.240 --> 00:27:36.799
maybe they would tackle it because Kurr talks about it genuinely,

660
00:27:36.839 --> 00:27:38.599
and I don't really like Kurr that much, to be honest,

661
00:27:39.160 --> 00:27:41.119
but he does talk genuinely about how hard it is

662
00:27:41.160 --> 00:27:43.720
as a coach. You have twelve the twelve best players

663
00:27:43.839 --> 00:27:47.000
arguably on the planet, twelve of the best twenty uh,

664
00:27:47.319 --> 00:27:49.640
and how do I play them all? There's fucking well

665
00:27:49.720 --> 00:27:50.640
forty minutes in a game.

666
00:27:50.720 --> 00:27:53.240
Okay, those first two games that we won by twenty,

667
00:27:53.319 --> 00:27:54.880
you can't get Tatum in there for a coup. Yeah

668
00:27:54.920 --> 00:27:55.920
that's a fair point.

669
00:27:56.039 --> 00:27:58.759
Yeah, but like what you don't want garbage minutes either?

670
00:27:59.160 --> 00:28:02.240
Yeah, but like but like that's what you do for

671
00:28:02.279 --> 00:28:05.680
ship players, but when there is no ship players, guys,

672
00:28:06.279 --> 00:28:09.000
Like even W twenty, I don't know if we won

673
00:28:09.079 --> 00:28:12.160
by twenty against like close to it. We won like

674
00:28:12.200 --> 00:28:15.519
it was like one twenty to eighty eight against Serbia, Yeah, I.

675
00:28:15.440 --> 00:28:17.720
Think, yeah, I think they didn't put Tatum in because

676
00:28:17.759 --> 00:28:19.839
of Durant. I think Durant was, yeah.

677
00:28:19.680 --> 00:28:23.200
Going crazy off the bench and like going to the

678
00:28:23.240 --> 00:28:27.039
international team getting better too, Like a twenty point lead, yeah,

679
00:28:27.079 --> 00:28:29.319
with a quarter left, Like I'm not hitting off the gap,

680
00:28:29.440 --> 00:28:30.079
it's the full court.

681
00:28:30.160 --> 00:28:32.119
But maybe like the last three four minutes. Yeah, but

682
00:28:32.119 --> 00:28:33.319
that's where you put the scrubs in.

683
00:28:33.799 --> 00:28:35.599
That's like a sign that I don't trust that's.

684
00:28:35.599 --> 00:28:39.079
You put the scrubs in. Okay, But also we want

685
00:28:39.079 --> 00:28:41.119
the guys to get minutes on the court during the

686
00:28:41.160 --> 00:28:43.640
Olympics so they can feel a part of it.

687
00:28:43.720 --> 00:28:46.920
Maybe maybe I don't know. If I'm Tatum, I don't want.

688
00:28:46.759 --> 00:28:48.680
Those I know you still earn the gold medal in

689
00:28:48.759 --> 00:28:50.480
the practice yeah, in the practice game.

690
00:28:50.319 --> 00:28:51.920
And even getting there, Like, I just don't want those

691
00:28:51.960 --> 00:28:54.279
trash minutes. And then Steve Kurtz said, it's matchups and

692
00:28:54.319 --> 00:28:56.680
whatever who's hot, and that is true too, like it

693
00:28:56.759 --> 00:28:57.839
can't organize the whole thing.

694
00:28:57.880 --> 00:29:00.480
But and Durant was coming off an injury, hadn't played

695
00:29:00.480 --> 00:29:03.000
in a month when the when the tournament began, and

696
00:29:03.039 --> 00:29:05.240
so who knows what was going to happen with him.

697
00:29:05.240 --> 00:29:06.519
If you would have pulled them out, they probably have

698
00:29:06.559 --> 00:29:09.279
plans maybe to put Tatum in at that game, right,

699
00:29:09.319 --> 00:29:10.480
and Kevin just goes.

700
00:29:10.279 --> 00:29:12.200
Off and if you if you zoom out, like, yeah,

701
00:29:12.240 --> 00:29:16.160
Tatum is twenty five, Yeah, right, he's got he's got

702
00:29:16.559 --> 00:29:19.920
fifteen more years, that's three more Olympic cycles. No, he'll

703
00:29:19.920 --> 00:29:21.960
probably get on again. No, he'll be the guy in

704
00:29:22.000 --> 00:29:25.839
the next one. He'll be him and Anthony Edwards. And

705
00:29:25.880 --> 00:29:27.640
again a lot of it is like matchup stuff.

706
00:29:27.680 --> 00:29:29.519
Is anybody more likable than Edwards?

707
00:29:29.799 --> 00:29:31.599
Really? Because that's another one too. A lot of people

708
00:29:31.599 --> 00:29:33.519
hate him really, yeah, a lot of people hate his cockers.

709
00:29:33.880 --> 00:29:35.680
I love constantly talking ship, I.

710
00:29:35.640 --> 00:29:37.480
Know, but that's like funny, but he's doing with a

711
00:29:37.559 --> 00:29:42.319
huge smile. Yeah, the Obama seems kind of like just

712
00:29:42.440 --> 00:29:45.680
like he's just like I think he's talking ship, but

713
00:29:45.720 --> 00:29:47.200
like Obama's not really with it.

714
00:29:47.160 --> 00:29:51.480
You know, Obama's the Obamas are the executive producers of

715
00:29:51.519 --> 00:29:52.000
this serial.

716
00:29:52.400 --> 00:29:55.160
That makes sense. Yeah, big basketball guy obviously and him

717
00:29:55.160 --> 00:29:56.680
and Lebron and stuff. That's one of the things I

718
00:29:56.759 --> 00:29:56.960
like that.

719
00:29:57.440 --> 00:30:00.000
And you would do this bracket that was fun Yeah, yeah, yeah,

720
00:30:00.079 --> 00:30:01.519
we always just cool ship like that. I think he

721
00:30:01.559 --> 00:30:03.519
does then do like a summer playlist.

722
00:30:03.839 --> 00:30:06.799
He just plays. He does make like a likable Spotify annual.

723
00:30:07.160 --> 00:30:10.200
Yeah, yeah, ship like that much. You know, it is

724
00:30:10.240 --> 00:30:12.240
funny he's in there. That makes more sense, like he

725
00:30:12.279 --> 00:30:14.119
did always visit them and stuff. But it does make

726
00:30:14.200 --> 00:30:15.519
more sense that he's the producer.

727
00:30:15.599 --> 00:30:18.000
And I think that when he was in office like

728
00:30:18.119 --> 00:30:21.119
the players always Yeah, both both terms. I think like

729
00:30:21.160 --> 00:30:23.519
they all went there. He was he was actually playing

730
00:30:23.839 --> 00:30:24.920
a game every week.

731
00:30:25.359 --> 00:30:27.359
Yeah, yeah, especially the.

732
00:30:28.839 --> 00:30:30.839
First term. I don't know about the second. Actually had

733
00:30:30.839 --> 00:30:32.039
like a decent little jumper on him.

734
00:30:32.160 --> 00:30:34.160
He's not terrible. Yeah, he's not terrible by any means.

735
00:30:34.160 --> 00:30:36.319
How do you play basketball with the president of the

736
00:30:36.359 --> 00:30:38.279
United States? My question, you let him shoot?

737
00:30:38.599 --> 00:30:41.799
Yeah, yeah, you're giving them the rock for sure.

738
00:30:42.000 --> 00:30:47.480
Hey, uh anthough he might fucking smell, he wouldn't. He wouldn't.

739
00:30:47.640 --> 00:30:48.839
Yeah, he wouldn't give a ship.

740
00:30:48.920 --> 00:30:48.960
No.

741
00:30:49.079 --> 00:30:51.400
I like Anthony Edwards a lot too. At first, I

742
00:30:51.400 --> 00:30:53.920
didn't like him. Uh you see the movie Hustle. I

743
00:30:54.000 --> 00:30:54.880
just watched Hustle.

744
00:30:55.000 --> 00:30:58.920
Yeah, with the Sandler Yeah, and he's you hate him

745
00:30:58.920 --> 00:30:59.400
in that mode.

746
00:30:59.400 --> 00:31:00.960
He makes him a day and a lot of people

747
00:31:01.000 --> 00:31:02.519
at that time when that movie came out, he was

748
00:31:02.519 --> 00:31:04.400
like a rookie or sophomore in the league said that

749
00:31:04.920 --> 00:31:07.680
he didn't do no acting like that was him. And

750
00:31:07.720 --> 00:31:09.880
now you're like, fuck, bro, Like I don't really like that.

751
00:31:09.960 --> 00:31:12.079
And then some of his interviews, like to Jim's point,

752
00:31:12.079 --> 00:31:14.359
where these interviews are cool and like open and you

753
00:31:14.400 --> 00:31:16.759
get a vibe you can't blame them either, because so

754
00:31:17.160 --> 00:31:19.799
it's kind of like the everyone rips Joe Rogan for

755
00:31:19.920 --> 00:31:25.599
interviewing McGregor or whoever just broke their ankle whatever, there's

756
00:31:25.599 --> 00:31:27.519
a fight now, like six years ago. And so then

757
00:31:27.599 --> 00:31:29.440
Rogan even says on his own like, well, I probably

758
00:31:29.480 --> 00:31:31.400
shouldn't like interview people get their ass whoop.

759
00:31:31.480 --> 00:31:33.880
Like yeah, man, that's what you do in basketball.

760
00:31:33.920 --> 00:31:36.519
Every night you go on the court, whether you have

761
00:31:36.519 --> 00:31:38.119
a good game or a bad game, or you win

762
00:31:38.200 --> 00:31:40.799
or you lose, you it's mandatory. You go to a

763
00:31:40.839 --> 00:31:46.400
table afterwards, and you get ridiculed by both teams. Dude,

764
00:31:46.480 --> 00:31:49.319
yeah journalists, Yeah right, And so like, are you gonna

765
00:31:49.359 --> 00:31:52.400
get the best light of someone who's dehydrated, fucking exhausted

766
00:31:52.400 --> 00:31:54.920
because they slept three hours And now Edward's gotta go

767
00:31:54.920 --> 00:31:57.599
I answer dumb ask questions about the vibe in the

768
00:31:57.599 --> 00:31:59.519
locker room, like you're gonna get shit stuff.

769
00:31:59.599 --> 00:31:59.920
Yeah.

770
00:32:00.119 --> 00:32:02.680
So now he's in Vegas, he gets to hang out

771
00:32:02.680 --> 00:32:05.119
with his the coolest guys ever, and like I can

772
00:32:05.200 --> 00:32:08.359
only relate on the smallest, smallest term, but like playing

773
00:32:08.400 --> 00:32:10.720
All Star games at big camps or even like you

774
00:32:10.759 --> 00:32:12.799
guys might even really going to a pickup game and

775
00:32:12.839 --> 00:32:15.240
you get to choose and you get like the best

776
00:32:15.240 --> 00:32:18.960
player on your team. It feels different when you play

777
00:32:19.000 --> 00:32:21.960
with someone of equal talent and every team has the

778
00:32:21.960 --> 00:32:24.359
best player. But like going to these basketball camps, I

779
00:32:24.359 --> 00:32:26.799
think in high school or whatever, and you get picked

780
00:32:26.839 --> 00:32:29.559
on an all star team and now you like, you

781
00:32:29.640 --> 00:32:32.240
know what that guy sauce has. You know, there's no

782
00:32:32.279 --> 00:32:36.359
communication needed. You just go and there's like a vibe

783
00:32:36.960 --> 00:32:39.640
even in lifting, like to some extent, like I used

784
00:32:39.640 --> 00:32:41.400
to lift, you know, with the world record holders and shit,

785
00:32:41.400 --> 00:32:42.839
and I wasn't that strong, but they like knew I

786
00:32:42.880 --> 00:32:44.839
knew my shit, and so like just like the energy

787
00:32:44.839 --> 00:32:47.480
there is a little different, like everyone's on the same page.

788
00:32:47.640 --> 00:32:48.839
So like these guys are doing this.

789
00:32:48.920 --> 00:32:50.759
Sharing a barbell like cal strength.

790
00:32:50.880 --> 00:32:54.359
Right, everyone's already kind of hand picked, you know, like

791
00:32:54.400 --> 00:32:57.119
this is that time's a trillion, right, this is the

792
00:32:57.200 --> 00:33:00.200
best athletes in the history of human beings and now

793
00:33:00.200 --> 00:33:01.960
they're you know, like so for all of them to

794
00:33:02.000 --> 00:33:03.920
be in a good mood is good to see and

795
00:33:03.920 --> 00:33:06.319
for Aunt Edwards to like, yeah, obviously I think he

796
00:33:06.400 --> 00:33:09.160
is just a positive cat. There's a lot of drama

797
00:33:09.160 --> 00:33:11.759
around that time too, though, where like John Morant was

798
00:33:11.759 --> 00:33:13.279
supposed to be the face of the league, just got

799
00:33:13.279 --> 00:33:15.640
caught with a pistol and then the league.

800
00:33:15.880 --> 00:33:17.920
He never recovered from that, huh.

801
00:33:17.599 --> 00:33:20.079
Not image wise, he's bawling out of his brains and

802
00:33:20.079 --> 00:33:21.200
no one wants to talk about him.

803
00:33:21.200 --> 00:33:24.000
No, honestly, Like, I don't think last time I remember

804
00:33:24.160 --> 00:33:26.319
at the Center he ever mentioned sucks.

805
00:33:26.640 --> 00:33:28.359
He was the highlight reel and he still is because

806
00:33:28.359 --> 00:33:30.440
their team also sucks. Their team's not playing well, but

807
00:33:30.519 --> 00:33:32.279
neither of the timber Wolves. They're not playing that well.

808
00:33:32.319 --> 00:33:35.119
And Anthony Edwards is still kind of the guy. Yeah,

809
00:33:35.160 --> 00:33:38.119
but he's like, it's all marketing, bro, it is. It

810
00:33:38.240 --> 00:33:40.279
just sucks, you know, because they gave they gave fucking

811
00:33:40.400 --> 00:33:43.559
jaw a Nike no, all of them the culture deal deal,

812
00:33:43.640 --> 00:33:45.200
like if his own shoe, right, all of it. Well,

813
00:33:45.240 --> 00:33:47.039
I mean same with Jason tatumright, he's just kind of

814
00:33:47.079 --> 00:33:50.039
too quiet and so like he could be the face

815
00:33:50.039 --> 00:33:52.440
of the league. He's fucking twenty six twenty seven team. Yeah,

816
00:33:52.480 --> 00:33:54.799
books on the team. Book played really well in the Olympics.

817
00:33:54.799 --> 00:33:56.920
I don't remember. Yeah, really funny he was on the team.

818
00:33:56.960 --> 00:33:57.440
I don't remember.

819
00:33:57.519 --> 00:33:59.480
Yeah, he played a lot of defense. Same thing like that,

820
00:33:59.559 --> 00:34:02.440
dude's like an absolute killer, but he just like has

821
00:34:02.480 --> 00:34:03.720
to turn and defender on this team.

822
00:34:03.759 --> 00:34:05.400
They starts doing the Matthew right, like all these guys

823
00:34:05.400 --> 00:34:06.319
are Nike athletes.

824
00:34:06.720 --> 00:34:10.000
Yeah Edwards, yeah, ants selling the one.

825
00:34:10.239 --> 00:34:13.639
Yeah, but he's like, yeah, he's the next guy, right,

826
00:34:13.679 --> 00:34:14.519
he's the next Lebron.

827
00:34:14.599 --> 00:34:16.400
Yeah he should be. I mean, I don't know. The

828
00:34:16.480 --> 00:34:18.280
league's in a good spot. Brother, they don't talk about.

829
00:34:18.039 --> 00:34:19.920
Like a Das are also fucking sick.

830
00:34:20.000 --> 00:34:22.840
Yeah, yeah, I love it. Yeah, but Luca Lucas fucking

831
00:34:23.239 --> 00:34:28.480
twenty six insane. Ant's fucking twenty three insane.

832
00:34:29.239 --> 00:34:31.800
No one cares about Luca though, like they do. I love,

833
00:34:31.960 --> 00:34:34.079
I love. I'm talking about like mass audience. Like, you're

834
00:34:34.119 --> 00:34:36.440
not gonna sell a Lucas shoe, right, I don't know.

835
00:34:36.920 --> 00:34:37.480
I think so.

836
00:34:37.559 --> 00:34:39.519
I think he's one of the best Jordan shoes. Him

837
00:34:39.559 --> 00:34:41.400
and Jason Tatum, they're both Jordan. Yeah, Nike.

838
00:34:42.599 --> 00:34:45.840
I don't know, No, but there's no, there's no, there's

839
00:34:45.840 --> 00:34:48.559
no denying Lucas skill. His shoes kind of cool too.

840
00:34:50.039 --> 00:34:51.159
His shoes kind of cool too.

841
00:34:51.639 --> 00:34:51.800
Yeah.

842
00:34:51.800 --> 00:34:53.880
I don't know what was the first one of the

843
00:34:53.880 --> 00:34:56.920
French team, but people probably don't even know Boris did.

844
00:34:57.000 --> 00:34:59.159
Boris Dia is a savage. The general manager of that

845
00:34:59.199 --> 00:34:59.719
French team.

846
00:35:00.400 --> 00:35:04.159
Boris was a fucking savage, bro. He was a savage.

847
00:35:04.159 --> 00:35:05.000
He looks old as shit.

848
00:35:05.079 --> 00:35:06.400
Poor guy. They had a little way.

849
00:35:06.480 --> 00:35:09.320
But the coach of the French team is you know,

850
00:35:09.360 --> 00:35:12.239
they say it he's retiring after the after the gold

851
00:35:12.280 --> 00:35:16.360
medal game. Yeah, regardless, he announces it. You know, he's like,

852
00:35:16.400 --> 00:35:18.639
this is my last Olympic basketball game.

853
00:35:18.719 --> 00:35:20.599
He's like, yeah, he's been around a long time. Yeah.

854
00:35:20.679 --> 00:35:23.599
The same with obviously the CCP coach like that. Some

855
00:35:23.639 --> 00:35:26.239
of that's so funny with the Serbian coach, like they're

856
00:35:26.280 --> 00:35:28.639
just always like eighty years old and just like yell

857
00:35:28.880 --> 00:35:32.000
at you taking every.

858
00:35:31.559 --> 00:35:32.920
I love how he was in the gym though.

859
00:35:33.039 --> 00:35:34.960
No, yeah he's about it. Yeah he's about it. But

860
00:35:35.039 --> 00:35:37.119
it's just so funny to see, like, and obviously we

861
00:35:37.199 --> 00:35:39.719
had like Greg Popovich, you know, who's obviously a little

862
00:35:39.719 --> 00:35:41.840
bit older, and even coach k Like a lot of

863
00:35:41.840 --> 00:35:46.400
our coaches weren't basketball players either. Historically, I think Popovitch

864
00:35:46.480 --> 00:35:47.880
might have played college.

865
00:35:47.639 --> 00:35:50.880
Uh Phil not or not Philnight. What's his name Jackson? Jackson?

866
00:35:50.960 --> 00:35:54.440
Yeah, he played in the league, Phil, Phil, you know,

867
00:35:54.480 --> 00:35:56.199
it's obviously a little bit more. But I don't even

868
00:35:56.199 --> 00:35:58.440
know if coach k did George.

869
00:35:58.000 --> 00:36:00.800
Uh Carl, George Carl, he didn't play.

870
00:36:00.960 --> 00:36:03.000
I don't know if George Carl played in the little

871
00:36:03.079 --> 00:36:06.440
you think so, yeah, you know, so, like I get it,

872
00:36:06.480 --> 00:36:08.239
but they also look a little bit different. You know,

873
00:36:08.559 --> 00:36:10.400
it's just like an international thing.

874
00:36:10.719 --> 00:36:13.079
The Kings had him for like one season George Carl

875
00:36:13.440 --> 00:36:14.039
that No, we had him.

876
00:36:14.079 --> 00:36:16.039
We had him for a while with uh. He might

877
00:36:16.039 --> 00:36:17.360
even coach Miss Richmond back in the.

878
00:36:17.400 --> 00:36:22.119
Day, George Carl. Yeah, they came back.

879
00:36:23.159 --> 00:36:25.320
Yeah, maybe, Yeah, we could look at all because.

880
00:36:25.119 --> 00:36:28.280
He had he had he had remember when they he

881
00:36:28.360 --> 00:36:29.800
came with when we had a.

882
00:36:29.760 --> 00:36:33.320
Boogie because he yeah, because he coached Seattle and then

883
00:36:33.360 --> 00:36:35.159
he might have he might have been here he coached

884
00:36:35.239 --> 00:36:37.679
Uh that's where he first made his name with like

885
00:36:37.719 --> 00:36:40.639
Gary Payton and them in uh probably seventy three.

886
00:36:41.039 --> 00:36:43.000
Yeah, he looked like he was just he might be right.

887
00:36:43.039 --> 00:36:43.880
I might be wrong.

888
00:36:45.199 --> 00:36:47.239
Because we had another trying to make of the coach

889
00:36:47.360 --> 00:36:48.079
because we've had.

890
00:36:48.000 --> 00:36:49.920
Like talk about a fall from grace all of our.

891
00:36:49.840 --> 00:36:52.199
Coaches, bro, all of our coaches. I know, bug is

892
00:36:52.239 --> 00:36:54.840
so good. He was an Olympian. He was, and then

893
00:36:54.920 --> 00:36:56.480
I think he went to Gold. He might have been

894
00:36:56.480 --> 00:36:59.320
twenty twelve with Lebron and them, and Kyrie might have

895
00:36:59.360 --> 00:37:02.559
been too. That's whole thing. Like it's also like life,

896
00:37:02.559 --> 00:37:05.400
and we got black balled, like Steph decided not to go.

897
00:37:05.599 --> 00:37:08.280
Kyrie and Boogie both got black balls.

898
00:37:08.760 --> 00:37:11.039
Oh, I mean just from like the league. Yeah, yeah, yeah,

899
00:37:11.079 --> 00:37:13.880
Boogie got black ball from the entire Kyrie too.

900
00:37:14.519 --> 00:37:16.559
He's balling though, no I know, but he gets no

901
00:37:16.719 --> 00:37:21.199
love he got he got uh.

902
00:37:20.079 --> 00:37:23.480
John Brant he was getting love when Dallas won. Well, yeah,

903
00:37:23.480 --> 00:37:26.440
you can't say no when you win a champion undeniable. Yeah,

904
00:37:26.559 --> 00:37:28.079
I mean I think that Kyrie is one of the

905
00:37:28.119 --> 00:37:29.360
best basketball players of all time.

906
00:37:29.480 --> 00:37:32.480
No, every single NBA player will say that Kevin Durant

907
00:37:32.519 --> 00:37:34.199
is the best scorer of all time, and Kyrie's the

908
00:37:34.239 --> 00:37:35.320
most talented basketball ball.

909
00:37:35.360 --> 00:37:37.320
Yeah. I love watching I can watch Kyrie highlights all

910
00:37:37.400 --> 00:37:37.679
day long.

911
00:37:37.679 --> 00:37:39.519
He's starting to stream now. He's so good too.

912
00:37:39.679 --> 00:37:41.920
He's so injured right yeah, and and.

913
00:37:41.800 --> 00:37:44.599
Like yeah, they're just coming up throwing the season, but

914
00:37:44.639 --> 00:37:46.199
he's so entertaining. He's so good.

915
00:37:46.960 --> 00:37:50.079
Everybody's tanking right now. Spurs are tanking. You know, Fox

916
00:37:50.119 --> 00:37:52.599
isn't playing the rest of the year. He walks like

917
00:37:52.599 --> 00:37:54.320
a couple weeks ago. No, he's getting a hand surgery,

918
00:37:54.880 --> 00:37:56.320
I know. But they're also tanking. Yeah.

919
00:37:56.360 --> 00:37:59.119
Yeah, but I'm saying that as as as that because

920
00:37:59.119 --> 00:38:01.039
he played he played two years with a broken hand

921
00:38:01.440 --> 00:38:01.840
a while all.

922
00:38:01.760 --> 00:38:04.599
Of a sudden, exactly, Yeah, they're tanking. Yeah, you're right.

923
00:38:04.639 --> 00:38:06.719
He only played one coach here one year.

924
00:38:07.079 --> 00:38:09.000
Yeah. I was like, I remember sixteen. I went to

925
00:38:09.039 --> 00:38:10.880
one of those games and it was like this, like we've.

926
00:38:10.719 --> 00:38:12.400
Had a lot of coaches like that though, you know,

927
00:38:12.480 --> 00:38:14.679
like we got rid of alone and now it goes

928
00:38:14.719 --> 00:38:18.079
to Denver. You want a chip, you know, like it's

929
00:38:18.119 --> 00:38:19.159
obviously just like.

930
00:38:19.320 --> 00:38:22.320
Yeah, I've always I always liked Malone. I was bummed

931
00:38:22.320 --> 00:38:22.960
when that happened.

932
00:38:23.000 --> 00:38:24.679
Yeah, it's all part of.

933
00:38:24.760 --> 00:38:26.760
The Kings fan You just expect a new coach every year.

934
00:38:26.840 --> 00:38:28.039
Yeah, it's it's all of it.

935
00:38:28.159 --> 00:38:28.840
Yeah, it's all. Uh.

936
00:38:29.000 --> 00:38:31.440
There's a lot of controversy around there right now around

937
00:38:31.760 --> 00:38:35.920
Vivek's daughter being way way too involved with the team.

938
00:38:36.320 --> 00:38:39.920
Yeah, there's conspiracies on Jeremy Lamb. Jeremy Lamb's with her well,

939
00:38:39.920 --> 00:38:42.599
that's the conspiracy, right, so like in her ear, he's

940
00:38:42.639 --> 00:38:47.800
like trying to control and and I told it's actually

941
00:38:47.840 --> 00:38:50.039
not that conspiratorial and not that crazy to me right now,

942
00:38:50.119 --> 00:38:52.519
it's not so if I'm vac and then my daughter

943
00:38:53.039 --> 00:38:58.000
starts dating college stud NBA pretty good player, he played

944
00:38:58.000 --> 00:39:00.280
for US, right yeah, And and but he was a

945
00:39:00.280 --> 00:39:03.920
freaky UKM bro shipping on people. And I like him,

946
00:39:04.239 --> 00:39:05.920
you know, like he's really nice to my daughter. We

947
00:39:05.920 --> 00:39:08.119
have family dinners and I really like him. And we're

948
00:39:08.159 --> 00:39:10.039
at dinner and he says, hey man, we should look

949
00:39:10.039 --> 00:39:11.519
at this guy, or you should take a look at

950
00:39:11.519 --> 00:39:13.360
this offense, or you should take a look. I'm probably

951
00:39:13.360 --> 00:39:16.639
gonna listen. I'm a fucking tech nerd from Silicon Valley.

952
00:39:16.679 --> 00:39:18.639
He's like dropping these little drops.

953
00:39:18.639 --> 00:39:20.199
Hey man, we should probably get rid of the aarin.

954
00:39:20.320 --> 00:39:21.000
Oh do you think?

955
00:39:21.039 --> 00:39:24.039
And then that guy goes to the meeting and it

956
00:39:24.239 --> 00:39:26.519
is you know, it's weird, Yeah, it is.

957
00:39:26.599 --> 00:39:29.280
It is. That's a very like, uh, what's the what's

958
00:39:29.320 --> 00:39:35.719
that show on HBO? Oh? The basketball? The family? The

959
00:39:35.800 --> 00:39:40.800
family that's all the money, like uh, just like succession succession. Yeah,

960
00:39:41.000 --> 00:39:43.800
it's like a succession like family member, like chirping in

961
00:39:43.840 --> 00:39:46.119
on the business from outside.

962
00:39:45.599 --> 00:39:48.400
And and like he shouldn't be involved for the most part,

963
00:39:48.800 --> 00:39:51.039
now that should not be involved. Yeah, yeah, I mean

964
00:39:51.079 --> 00:39:53.320
that's that's part of the reason that this franchise is

965
00:39:53.400 --> 00:39:57.000
wagged back and forth from this strategy to that strategy

966
00:39:57.000 --> 00:39:58.440
from Jerry Jones's Dallas.

967
00:39:58.480 --> 00:39:59.280
But it's it's hard.

968
00:40:00.039 --> 00:40:02.960
The maloofs were involved and we had some years but

969
00:40:03.039 --> 00:40:05.320
never one well yeah, never won.

970
00:40:05.400 --> 00:40:09.320
Yeah you got fucking Kobe goddamn Bryant in your way. Yeah,

971
00:40:09.480 --> 00:40:11.079
you know that's what.

972
00:40:11.079 --> 00:40:13.519
What do you think every Yeah, what every Seattle and

973
00:40:13.679 --> 00:40:16.079
Utah team said forever, like, man, we just never got

974
00:40:16.159 --> 00:40:17.760
Yeah you had fucking Michael Jordan.

975
00:40:17.519 --> 00:40:19.320
In your way? What are you supposed to do? No,

976
00:40:19.480 --> 00:40:21.760
that's fair, you know, you're just done for that's fair.

977
00:40:21.920 --> 00:40:26.480
Just shit timing, shit timing, shit timon Yeah.

978
00:40:25.960 --> 00:40:26.079
Uh.

979
00:40:26.599 --> 00:40:28.880
Did they get more Steph interviews like one on one.

980
00:40:28.840 --> 00:40:32.599
Zee, Yeah, there's the the A big chunk of the

981
00:40:32.679 --> 00:40:35.239
last episode is a lot of stuff because yeah, there

982
00:40:35.320 --> 00:40:37.360
wasn't like a big lebron one on one and obviously

983
00:40:37.360 --> 00:40:38.480
in the first two it was a lot of the

984
00:40:38.480 --> 00:40:39.559
Canadian guys R J.

985
00:40:39.719 --> 00:40:41.639
Barrett and you have to choose one guy, right, because

986
00:40:41.719 --> 00:40:45.239
like Canada, Loki has like four dudes. They have like

987
00:40:45.280 --> 00:40:47.440
five guys in the league now that are six maybe

988
00:40:47.599 --> 00:40:49.880
actually that are in the league, and legit Olennok. They

989
00:40:49.880 --> 00:40:52.599
interviewed a bunch, but didn't talk a bunch about the tall,

990
00:40:52.679 --> 00:40:53.599
long haired white dude.

991
00:40:54.760 --> 00:40:55.639
He's kind of at the beginning.

992
00:40:55.719 --> 00:40:57.639
Yeah, and they interview him a lot, but they don't

993
00:40:57.639 --> 00:40:59.519
really like dig into his story. He's always just talking

994
00:40:59.519 --> 00:41:02.280
about Cannon or talking about Barrett or Nash, which is

995
00:41:02.280 --> 00:41:05.400
interesting because Oleno's career has been really good in general.

996
00:41:06.599 --> 00:41:06.800
R J.

997
00:41:06.960 --> 00:41:10.119
Barrett was supposed to be the guy in the league

998
00:41:10.159 --> 00:41:13.519
and has had like an okay career obviously very talented,

999
00:41:13.519 --> 00:41:15.480
but just never into the you know, he's supposed to

1000
00:41:15.519 --> 00:41:17.719
be fucking Ann Edwards like he's supposed to be the guy.

1001
00:41:18.039 --> 00:41:19.400
Was like a chip to the Knicks.

1002
00:41:19.480 --> 00:41:19.719
Yeah.

1003
00:41:19.800 --> 00:41:23.320
Yeah, they spend more time on Shy.

1004
00:41:23.760 --> 00:41:26.840
Yeah yeah, I mean Shy. Same thing with shybro Shy's

1005
00:41:26.960 --> 00:41:28.639
arguably the best guard in the league right now, and

1006
00:41:28.679 --> 00:41:30.639
he's not the face of the league. You know, like

1007
00:41:30.679 --> 00:41:33.480
there's just so much marketing to everything the NBA does

1008
00:41:33.519 --> 00:41:35.400
and you can't you know, I mean, I guess you

1009
00:41:35.400 --> 00:41:37.320
could fault them now because viewership's down, but you can't

1010
00:41:37.320 --> 00:41:39.400
really fault them because over the last.

1011
00:41:39.360 --> 00:41:42.480
Forty it's not down. It's down like forty percent, I know.

1012
00:41:42.519 --> 00:41:45.159
But over the forty years, like it's been so good too,

1013
00:41:45.239 --> 00:41:48.599
you know, so like because you can blame the product too, right,

1014
00:41:48.639 --> 00:41:49.920
it's not like all the league.

1015
00:41:50.159 --> 00:41:52.280
I don't. I don't mind the product though. I don't.

1016
00:41:52.320 --> 00:41:54.519
I think, yeah, I don't know really what it is.

1017
00:41:54.840 --> 00:41:57.000
I don't love the product. I really don't. I don't

1018
00:41:57.039 --> 00:42:00.440
mind it because you watched like regular season games than

1019
00:42:00.480 --> 00:42:02.159
they do. And we've talked about this for every sport,

1020
00:42:02.239 --> 00:42:04.679
baseball and basketball in particularly, it's just so many games,

1021
00:42:04.960 --> 00:42:08.360
you know, like Baseball's one out is that? Or one

1022
00:42:08.400 --> 00:42:11.920
excuse is that? Like at least there's a different pictures,

1023
00:42:12.039 --> 00:42:13.639
you know, so you go, what's your favorite picture?

1024
00:42:13.719 --> 00:42:15.440
Like at least he's just the same game every night.

1025
00:42:15.480 --> 00:42:17.480
Yeah, and he's rested, so at least he's going hard,

1026
00:42:17.760 --> 00:42:19.679
like he's not he's not saving his shoulder, you know,

1027
00:42:19.719 --> 00:42:21.960
because he knows rest is coming. Like Lebron has to

1028
00:42:21.960 --> 00:42:23.840
save himself, you know, and Lebron's about it.

1029
00:42:23.880 --> 00:42:26.320
Example, like he goes a bad chick baseball too. You

1030
00:42:26.360 --> 00:42:29.280
get like one swing can change the whole game, and

1031
00:42:29.320 --> 00:42:31.639
you're constantly waiting for that to happen.

1032
00:42:31.719 --> 00:42:33.679
But it would be hard to argue that baseball wouldn't

1033
00:42:33.679 --> 00:42:36.519
be more interesting if there was less games Like that

1034
00:42:36.559 --> 00:42:39.119
outfielder Mike a little harder, you know, like he might

1035
00:42:39.199 --> 00:42:41.519
run a little real a little harder. Like that's the

1036
00:42:41.559 --> 00:42:42.400
reason again, why.

1037
00:42:42.239 --> 00:42:44.360
I don't have less injuries. Right, You'll have sure these

1038
00:42:44.360 --> 00:42:46.760
big guys that are constantly getting hurt. They're just they're

1039
00:42:46.800 --> 00:42:49.880
taking too they're they're they're sitting on planes too long.

1040
00:42:49.920 --> 00:42:51.119
I know, they got all the best thing in the world,

1041
00:42:51.159 --> 00:42:53.320
but like the turnaround for those games and those four

1042
00:42:53.360 --> 00:42:55.519
games six game skits, like those four game series is

1043
00:42:55.559 --> 00:42:58.960
like you're talking about these big guys, they're sitting around

1044
00:42:59.000 --> 00:43:01.800
too much. They're they're not they're getting tired, they're getting loose,

1045
00:43:01.800 --> 00:43:05.039
they're making these quick adjusted plays like on it from

1046
00:43:05.079 --> 00:43:07.559
standing still for long. Like there's a lot of reasons

1047
00:43:07.599 --> 00:43:09.639
why baseball people don't real think about that, why baseball

1048
00:43:09.719 --> 00:43:11.079
guys are getting hurt. Alter. I'm like, well, how is

1049
00:43:11.079 --> 00:43:14.599
that guy constantly hurt? It's like, well, he's six eight,

1050
00:43:15.119 --> 00:43:17.960
three hundred pounds of solid muscle. But also like he's

1051
00:43:18.039 --> 00:43:21.159
kind of like, you sit for twenty minutes six sitting.

1052
00:43:21.719 --> 00:43:24.000
You have one ball you got and you gotta swing

1053
00:43:24.039 --> 00:43:26.920
as hard as you fucking can from from not moving one.

1054
00:43:27.039 --> 00:43:29.440
Just like the mental part, you know, mentally, and that's

1055
00:43:29.559 --> 00:43:32.039
ravel that's where people have to give it to Lebron,

1056
00:43:32.199 --> 00:43:34.480
Like to mentally go a is hard and be so

1057
00:43:34.719 --> 00:43:37.679
attuned every game that he does is the most impressive

1058
00:43:37.679 --> 00:43:40.800
thing about him. Where Yeah, Bro, if I'm fucking playing

1059
00:43:41.039 --> 00:43:42.000
what what's baseball?

1060
00:43:42.079 --> 00:43:44.679
One hundred something sixty two? Bro?

1061
00:43:44.960 --> 00:43:47.039
You think I'm gonna really care sitting in the outfield

1062
00:43:47.039 --> 00:43:49.159
if I drop the ball, I got another bottle.

1063
00:43:49.360 --> 00:43:51.880
Well, and if you're an outfielder, essentially they're like a

1064
00:43:51.920 --> 00:43:53.000
wide receiver out there.

1065
00:43:53.039 --> 00:43:54.920
You gotta you got a lot of ground to cover.

1066
00:43:55.480 --> 00:43:57.519
Yeah, but I'm just like, and the ball is not

1067
00:43:57.519 --> 00:43:58.239
being thrown to you.

1068
00:43:58.400 --> 00:44:00.320
That's you know, not.

1069
00:44:00.280 --> 00:44:02.639
Paying attention for fucking one hundred and sixty games, Like

1070
00:44:02.679 --> 00:44:03.840
I'm not dying for it.

1071
00:44:04.199 --> 00:44:06.519
No, I used to. I used to, but then once

1072
00:44:06.559 --> 00:44:09.039
you like get no, I'm talking about as a player. Oh,

1073
00:44:09.119 --> 00:44:11.199
I think I spectator as a player.

1074
00:44:11.280 --> 00:44:13.519
I just don't think you can you know, you just

1075
00:44:13.519 --> 00:44:16.119
can't be so fucking like like like to be the

1076
00:44:16.119 --> 00:44:17.760
best athlete, you gotta be like this the whole time.

1077
00:44:17.800 --> 00:44:19.840
You know, you're on your the balls are your feet

1078
00:44:19.840 --> 00:44:23.159
and you're fucking reacting. You're not doing that for fucking

1079
00:44:23.199 --> 00:44:26.119
how many And he's nine times one hundred and sixty.

1080
00:44:26.480 --> 00:44:29.559
There was some guys though that extra like that. Not

1081
00:44:29.719 --> 00:44:32.199
very many though, you know, yeah, yeah, the majority of.

1082
00:44:32.480 --> 00:44:34.920
That's why they called Pete Rose Charlie Hustle because yeah,

1083
00:44:35.079 --> 00:44:35.880
he's yeah.

1084
00:44:35.679 --> 00:44:41.280
He's a Boston second base little guy. Uh Padroya, no,

1085
00:44:42.119 --> 00:44:45.199
Destin Beadroya. He's a little guy on Boston right second baseman.

1086
00:44:46.239 --> 00:44:49.360
What's his name? Anyways, he was like that every single game,

1087
00:44:49.440 --> 00:44:53.039
every single pitch was like it was he was years old.

1088
00:44:53.280 --> 00:44:55.320
It was do or die. It was the same routine.

1089
00:44:55.360 --> 00:44:59.079
It was like high alert, like fucking jumpstup, every every

1090
00:44:59.159 --> 00:45:01.719
single fucking pick. Every single game. He played with his

1091
00:45:02.159 --> 00:45:02.599
heart out.

1092
00:45:03.639 --> 00:45:05.280
But yeah, you need every player on the you need

1093
00:45:05.320 --> 00:45:06.880
every player on the field to do that, every player

1094
00:45:07.360 --> 00:45:09.639
to do that. And then the spectators, Okay, Wizard of

1095
00:45:09.679 --> 00:45:13.840
Oz another guy that just went crazy. Yeah, yeah, but

1096
00:45:14.440 --> 00:45:16.159
with the point that you can even pick them out

1097
00:45:16.360 --> 00:45:19.440
means that it's not enough. It's probably Detroit, right, Like

1098
00:45:19.480 --> 00:45:21.519
every pro athlete should go balls to the wall.

1099
00:45:21.679 --> 00:45:24.920
You're a pro athlete, yeah, or living the dream? Yeah,

1100
00:45:24.960 --> 00:45:25.679
And I mean.

1101
00:45:26.239 --> 00:45:26.880
It is long.

1102
00:45:27.320 --> 00:45:29.119
Yeah, it is very possible.

1103
00:45:28.760 --> 00:45:32.280
To get very injured making a very acrobatic play. It's

1104
00:45:32.320 --> 00:45:34.360
possible to get hit in the head or the hand

1105
00:45:34.480 --> 00:45:35.400
or whatever.

1106
00:45:35.440 --> 00:45:37.960
As hard as you can, you're probably gonna pull some obliques.

1107
00:45:38.000 --> 00:45:40.840
And like, there's so many fucking oblique injuries. I think

1108
00:45:40.920 --> 00:45:43.079
the injuries because you're just torking. It's like golf, Like,

1109
00:45:43.119 --> 00:45:46.280
how do golfers get hurt because they're torquing their body

1110
00:45:46.320 --> 00:45:48.880
at maximum effort a fucking hundred times around.

1111
00:45:49.000 --> 00:45:52.440
You think that practice to their spines and their shoulders

1112
00:45:52.440 --> 00:45:54.079
getting destroyed, their knees.

1113
00:45:54.239 --> 00:45:57.840
Look at Tiger, he's a fucking a thousand. Yeah, he's

1114
00:45:57.880 --> 00:46:00.800
got so much metal in his body. He's more machine

1115
00:46:00.800 --> 00:46:04.480
than man. He's had another surgery. What he just break

1116
00:46:04.519 --> 00:46:06.400
He just broke something again, I don't know, he just

1117
00:46:06.440 --> 00:46:09.800
broke just got married. No, he's not playing because you

1118
00:46:09.880 --> 00:46:13.360
just had surgery on his uh, like ruptured his achilles

1119
00:46:13.400 --> 00:46:16.599
or broke his Achilles's playing now though? Yeah, it sounds

1120
00:46:16.599 --> 00:46:21.639
good to Yeah, Charlie, Charlie Woods. Woods, that's a hell

1121
00:46:21.679 --> 00:46:24.639
of a name, Charlie Woods. And then John Daily sounds

1122
00:46:24.639 --> 00:46:27.960
also a stick to It's great, yeah, Charlie Woods. But

1123
00:46:28.000 --> 00:46:28.800
those kids are smart, man.

1124
00:46:28.800 --> 00:46:30.760
They probably Wood sound like a baseball player from the fifties.

1125
00:46:30.760 --> 00:46:32.679
They're gonna make the same money not having to win

1126
00:46:33.000 --> 00:46:35.800
tournaments on YouTube. Yeah, you know, like that's probably true.

1127
00:46:35.800 --> 00:46:37.239
Golf is still fucking huge.

1128
00:46:37.760 --> 00:46:47.440
Yeah, just having seen the whole thing, you really really

1129
00:46:47.480 --> 00:46:49.119
cycled through kind of the best teams.

1130
00:46:49.519 --> 00:46:53.519
Obviously, they talk to South Sudan. Why not, well sausage

1131
00:46:53.599 --> 00:46:54.360
in the run.

1132
00:46:54.480 --> 00:46:58.440
They were in two episodes, but they don't have as

1133
00:46:58.519 --> 00:47:03.119
positive an impression in the documentary as they had watching

1134
00:47:03.159 --> 00:47:04.679
the games or real life.

1135
00:47:04.719 --> 00:47:06.679
I mean, and there's NBA guys were talking about. I mean,

1136
00:47:06.679 --> 00:47:09.159
that's the that's the first African nation to win a

1137
00:47:09.199 --> 00:47:09.920
game in the Olympics.

1138
00:47:10.000 --> 00:47:11.880
Yeah, they didn't talk any there was none of that

1139
00:47:11.960 --> 00:47:12.239
at all.

1140
00:47:12.400 --> 00:47:15.199
And I'll watch their centers in the tourney right now

1141
00:47:15.400 --> 00:47:17.079
for Duke and he used to look at the top

1142
00:47:17.119 --> 00:47:17.760
ten draft pick.

1143
00:47:18.559 --> 00:47:21.199
Yeah, yeah, yeah, they're still kind of going with that

1144
00:47:21.280 --> 00:47:23.960
old school Olympic Younger crew.

1145
00:47:23.840 --> 00:47:27.679
And Western yeah, you mean sign eas Yeah, yeah, the

1146
00:47:28.360 --> 00:47:32.519
what was the other teams? Spain's okay, Argentina's flopped out.

1147
00:47:32.760 --> 00:47:33.480
That's one.

1148
00:47:35.039 --> 00:47:35.199
Good.

1149
00:47:35.360 --> 00:47:37.639
They're the only team to win a gold, which they

1150
00:47:37.639 --> 00:47:39.639
don't even fucking they mentioned for a second. But in

1151
00:47:39.679 --> 00:47:41.920
the beginning montage when they're building this up to be

1152
00:47:42.000 --> 00:47:44.920
more of an international story and talk about the eight

1153
00:47:45.000 --> 00:47:48.000
loss and the Foeba loss, they don't show Argentina in

1154
00:47:48.039 --> 00:47:48.480
the beginning.

1155
00:47:49.079 --> 00:47:51.119
Isn't that crazy?

1156
00:47:51.119 --> 00:47:53.800
They kept showing at Spanna and they showed Tony Parker

1157
00:47:53.800 --> 00:47:56.199
and Spain was good because it was the Gasol brothers,

1158
00:47:56.400 --> 00:47:58.440
you know, and it's the Kasalt brothers versus Kobe like

1159
00:47:58.480 --> 00:48:00.599
that was a story, and they weren't inanely good, and

1160
00:48:00.599 --> 00:48:03.360
France was insanely good. Even England was really good for

1161
00:48:03.400 --> 00:48:05.920
a bit. They had Ben Gordon who played shooting guard

1162
00:48:05.960 --> 00:48:09.760
with for the Bowls and Louel Dang. They had a

1163
00:48:09.800 --> 00:48:12.239
really good team too in that era that pushed Germany

1164
00:48:12.280 --> 00:48:14.360
had a team that pushed us to some limits. But

1165
00:48:14.559 --> 00:48:17.480
Argentina's running the world and they don't show him at

1166
00:48:17.480 --> 00:48:19.400
the very beginning. Brazil had a pretty good team back

1167
00:48:19.400 --> 00:48:23.239
in the day too. Nane who played for Denver with

1168
00:48:23.320 --> 00:48:27.719
Allen Iverson and Carmela Anthony and then yeah Argentina, now

1169
00:48:27.719 --> 00:48:30.039
we're just two were too busy Wooden the World Cups.

1170
00:48:30.960 --> 00:48:38.639
Sorry, yeah, they who do They spend time with Canada, France, Serbia,

1171
00:48:38.760 --> 00:48:40.199
A lot of time with Serbia, a lot of a

1172
00:48:40.239 --> 00:48:41.760
lot of Vladi dvats.

1173
00:48:43.039 --> 00:48:44.199
Screen time. Yeah.

1174
00:48:44.760 --> 00:48:46.440
Yeah, I mean even in the past, the show like

1175
00:48:46.480 --> 00:48:49.199
our venus a bonus, you know, in the eighty eight Olympics,

1176
00:48:50.280 --> 00:48:54.440
which is really cool obviously, like CCP beating US. I

1177
00:48:54.639 --> 00:48:56.679
wish they would have gone more into on our college

1178
00:48:56.719 --> 00:48:59.079
team because that's even history that I don't know that well,

1179
00:48:59.199 --> 00:49:01.239
like our amateurs squads who are on him because we

1180
00:49:01.280 --> 00:49:04.920
had to have ballers still. I think like James Worthy

1181
00:49:05.000 --> 00:49:06.920
was still on one of those teams, you know, like

1182
00:49:07.079 --> 00:49:08.760
some really fucking ballers.

1183
00:49:09.760 --> 00:49:12.840
It's interesting that the contrast that seeing the whole thing,

1184
00:49:12.960 --> 00:49:19.079
like Serbia loses and they get the fucking bronze medal,

1185
00:49:19.559 --> 00:49:22.119
and so you see them in the locker room like

1186
00:49:22.920 --> 00:49:28.079
sad and crying and comforting each other, and then like

1187
00:49:28.159 --> 00:49:33.280
two minutes later they're fucking celebrating. Yeah, and and like

1188
00:49:33.800 --> 00:49:36.599
you know, like literally like out on the town celebrating.

1189
00:49:36.760 --> 00:49:37.599
Yeah, yeah, I.

1190
00:49:37.599 --> 00:49:39.480
Mean it was the year like for them to win gold.

1191
00:49:39.800 --> 00:49:41.800
I obviously, joke is just twenty nine, so he's got

1192
00:49:41.800 --> 00:49:44.320
a little bit more time. But dude, you look at

1193
00:49:44.360 --> 00:49:47.800
his stats, what he does in the league, and he

1194
00:49:47.840 --> 00:49:50.480
doesn't get enough love either, Like he's actually in sick.

1195
00:49:50.559 --> 00:49:52.559
He doesn't good enough love till the playoffs come around. Bro.

1196
00:49:52.639 --> 00:49:54.280
But even like in the history of stuff, like they're

1197
00:49:54.320 --> 00:49:57.199
not even putting them in like some all time talks.

1198
00:49:57.199 --> 00:50:00.280
But like I think averaging thirty twelve and twelve, Yeah,

1199
00:50:00.239 --> 00:50:02.440
they do talk about him with him all the time

1200
00:50:02.960 --> 00:50:04.239
in the Jordan conversation.

1201
00:50:04.760 --> 00:50:06.320
Oh no, I just been like in general, like you'll

1202
00:50:06.320 --> 00:50:08.039
hear about him like you watch like Sports Center. U.

1203
00:50:08.239 --> 00:50:12.320
Yeah, but I'm talking in the big picture.

1204
00:50:13.159 --> 00:50:15.039
In the docks, they talk about him. He's not he's

1205
00:50:15.079 --> 00:50:16.079
not his player in the whole turn.

1206
00:50:16.239 --> 00:50:17.960
He's definitely Yeah, I mean he's the MVP of the

1207
00:50:18.000 --> 00:50:20.960
league multiple times. Thirty twelve and twelve is the best

1208
00:50:21.000 --> 00:50:22.920
stat line to ever go down to history, and they're

1209
00:50:22.960 --> 00:50:25.119
winning games because if you have that stat line, you're losing.

1210
00:50:25.119 --> 00:50:27.400
No one cares, right, I think the problem, we're not

1211
00:50:27.480 --> 00:50:30.199
the problem. But like the the thing with that is

1212
00:50:30.960 --> 00:50:33.639
you can't just be good at basketball to be considered

1213
00:50:33.639 --> 00:50:35.519
like you gotta be then you gotta be an entertainer.

1214
00:50:36.000 --> 00:50:37.679
You gotta be flashy.

1215
00:50:37.920 --> 00:50:39.079
You guys kind of flashy.

1216
00:50:39.320 --> 00:50:43.639
I mean he plays like very but he'd discipline basketball.

1217
00:50:43.719 --> 00:50:46.199
He'd be throwing some no looks, he'd be throwing some dimers.

1218
00:50:46.440 --> 00:50:48.760
Yeah, but he's not like doing Jordan fucking you know

1219
00:50:48.960 --> 00:50:53.360
logo donks. Yeah, he's fat. Yeah, he's look a look

1220
00:50:53.400 --> 00:50:55.039
at Wemby. Have you seen him when he was a kid.

1221
00:50:55.239 --> 00:50:57.920
Look at Wemby. He's like a you shouldn't be that athletic.

1222
00:50:58.039 --> 00:51:00.920
No, no, yeah, yeah, jokichink got that. He ain't got

1223
00:51:00.960 --> 00:51:01.400
that sauce.

1224
00:51:01.400 --> 00:51:04.480
So he's just got that that. He's What was so

1225
00:51:04.599 --> 00:51:07.599
dominating is you just can't stop his like ten foot jumper.

1226
00:51:07.840 --> 00:51:10.800
No, you can do everything, bro, he's so good. He's

1227
00:51:10.840 --> 00:51:12.000
so he's Luca.

1228
00:51:12.079 --> 00:51:14.920
He's a fucking seven foot Luca.

1229
00:51:15.000 --> 00:51:16.840
You're probably right. I mean, like it's not flashy on

1230
00:51:16.880 --> 00:51:18.400
American level, like yeah, like.

1231
00:51:18.440 --> 00:51:19.840
No, he just scores a lot of points, but it's

1232
00:51:19.880 --> 00:51:20.599
not like sexy.

1233
00:51:20.880 --> 00:51:22.280
No. Yeah, they're not sexy points.

1234
00:51:22.400 --> 00:51:23.840
No, they're just like all of a sudden, you look up,

1235
00:51:23.840 --> 00:51:25.039
you look at the STWN, he's but if you get

1236
00:51:25.039 --> 00:51:26.239
thirty five points.

1237
00:51:26.000 --> 00:51:28.000
No, he's Yeah, he's literally unstoppable.

1238
00:51:28.119 --> 00:51:29.440
I think he's just barely barely.

1239
00:51:30.119 --> 00:51:33.039
I literally think like if he just continues to care,

1240
00:51:33.079 --> 00:51:35.039
because he's even had like funny interviews where like he

1241
00:51:35.079 --> 00:51:37.119
just doesn't even like basketball and shit, like he's like

1242
00:51:37.159 --> 00:51:37.920
a weird dude.

1243
00:51:38.519 --> 00:51:40.480
He's got his crazy brothers that are in the stand.

1244
00:51:40.599 --> 00:51:40.679
Bro.

1245
00:51:40.800 --> 00:51:42.639
If he could care for another ten years, he could

1246
00:51:42.639 --> 00:51:45.719
be the greatest basketball player in the history of basketball easily.

1247
00:51:46.039 --> 00:51:47.840
There's like three guys you can say that about right

1248
00:51:47.840 --> 00:51:49.159
now in the league, which is crazy.

1249
00:51:49.840 --> 00:51:52.159
There are a lot, like there's a lot of potential,

1250
00:51:52.159 --> 00:51:54.000
but like he's doing it. Like you look at his

1251
00:51:54.039 --> 00:51:56.760
stat lines from age twenty five to thirty versus anyone else,

1252
00:51:56.800 --> 00:51:57.039
and he.

1253
00:51:57.000 --> 00:52:00.639
Beats them, like he beats them like for sure, to.

1254
00:52:00.360 --> 00:52:03.480
Thirty twelve in totals insane. The only person I think

1255
00:52:03.519 --> 00:52:05.519
to average a triple double in the history of the

1256
00:52:05.599 --> 00:52:10.559
NBA is Oscar Robertson. Yeah, different game too, Yeah, a

1257
00:52:10.559 --> 00:52:12.920
whole different time, a whole different time. I don't like

1258
00:52:12.960 --> 00:52:15.000
the argument that he was playing against you know, plumbers

1259
00:52:15.000 --> 00:52:15.840
and instruction workers.

1260
00:52:15.880 --> 00:52:18.840
But at the same time yeah, yeah, I mean at

1261
00:52:18.840 --> 00:52:20.920
the same time some of them were well, no, they

1262
00:52:20.920 --> 00:52:22.800
weren't like nineteen eighty five.

1263
00:52:23.480 --> 00:52:26.119
Fucking in nineteen thirty if it was a typical salary,

1264
00:52:26.159 --> 00:52:27.360
it was like, what ten thousand dollars.

1265
00:52:27.719 --> 00:52:30.400
No, eighties you're a rocket eighties you're rocking. Probably probably

1266
00:52:30.440 --> 00:52:32.880
a hundred k. Yeah, probably hundred k.

1267
00:52:32.840 --> 00:52:34.119
Which maybe a little bit which is three and a

1268
00:52:34.159 --> 00:52:35.360
half million now or something like that.

1269
00:52:36.159 --> 00:52:39.320
Yeah, probably, yeah, probably, I mean now is like twenty

1270
00:52:39.559 --> 00:52:42.440
Well you can look at inflation easily by by rookie

1271
00:52:42.480 --> 00:52:45.679
contracts because it's just going to go one for one inflation. Yeah, right,

1272
00:52:45.719 --> 00:52:47.800
So whatever a rookie contract now, which is probably around

1273
00:52:47.800 --> 00:52:52.519
three million rookie NBA contract, even nineteen eighty five is

1274
00:52:52.519 --> 00:52:54.079
towards the end of his career, but we still get

1275
00:52:54.079 --> 00:52:55.599
an idea nineteen.

1276
00:52:58.760 --> 00:52:59.639
Eighty five.

1277
00:53:03.039 --> 00:53:08.280
Three k oh yeah, yeah, and that's probably yeah again

1278
00:53:08.320 --> 00:53:11.119
for like a whatever rookie. So I mean Oscar got

1279
00:53:11.119 --> 00:53:13.280
paid for sure, right because the same era as Magic

1280
00:53:13.800 --> 00:53:15.880
Jordan was a rookie that year obviously got to end

1281
00:53:15.920 --> 00:53:16.920
up paying just fine.

1282
00:53:17.440 --> 00:53:18.000
Yeah.

1283
00:53:18.519 --> 00:53:22.360
So structurally I thought the first episode I think is

1284
00:53:22.360 --> 00:53:25.159
the shortest or one of the shortest in the whole. Actually,

1285
00:53:25.320 --> 00:53:26.639
there's one that's thirty seven minutes.

1286
00:53:26.639 --> 00:53:28.280
It's a little bit shorter than that second.

1287
00:53:29.159 --> 00:53:35.239
Yeah, yeah, I think maybe so. But it was it

1288
00:53:35.320 --> 00:53:38.320
was intriguing, but it wasn't like I have to sit

1289
00:53:38.400 --> 00:53:41.400
here and be sure that I watched the next episode

1290
00:53:41.400 --> 00:53:43.320
that was there's It didn't pull me in the way

1291
00:53:43.360 --> 00:53:46.639
I'd expected it to, and the other episodes do that,

1292
00:53:47.000 --> 00:53:50.239
Like you, I thought from from the transition from episode

1293
00:53:50.239 --> 00:53:53.360
to episode, you know, really, I here's the thing. I

1294
00:53:53.360 --> 00:53:55.440
didn't have to watch all of them obviously, Yeah, yeah,

1295
00:53:55.639 --> 00:53:58.159
and if if it was not one that I enjoyed.

1296
00:53:58.199 --> 00:54:00.639
And I'm not a huge basketball fan period, pretty casual

1297
00:54:00.679 --> 00:54:04.559
basketball fan, especially Olympic basketball, very casual fan.

1298
00:54:05.320 --> 00:54:05.840
With the Kings.

1299
00:54:05.920 --> 00:54:07.920
I like, I wait for my Apple TV to tell

1300
00:54:07.960 --> 00:54:10.559
me the games close before I turn it, you know.

1301
00:54:10.800 --> 00:54:12.559
I mean that's part of eighty two games. So, like,

1302
00:54:12.599 --> 00:54:15.280
I love basketball and I'm not turning on an NBA game. Well,

1303
00:54:15.320 --> 00:54:17.400
it's gonna be a good Kings because every game is

1304
00:54:17.440 --> 00:54:18.440
gonna matter at this point.

1305
00:54:18.599 --> 00:54:21.159
Yeah, get into bro, think we're done dat?

1306
00:54:21.239 --> 00:54:24.039
Oh we are what three and a four in a row? Now? Bro?

1307
00:54:24.159 --> 00:54:26.800
And now you get literally same Night one interview, Zach

1308
00:54:26.880 --> 00:54:29.559
Lavigni said, locker room vibes are bad, and then they

1309
00:54:29.559 --> 00:54:31.480
ask key On Ellis. He's like, dude, locker room vibes

1310
00:54:31.519 --> 00:54:33.280
are great, and you're like, all right, we're done. Like

1311
00:54:33.320 --> 00:54:35.239
you hear that in the same night, You're done.

1312
00:54:35.360 --> 00:54:38.000
I uh, I texted my body the last time. We're

1313
00:54:38.000 --> 00:54:41.280
gonna lose by twenty tonight because we're playing Okay, see

1314
00:54:41.440 --> 00:54:42.760
now they're on a back to back.

1315
00:54:42.800 --> 00:54:44.480
They're actually an insane team too.

1316
00:54:44.679 --> 00:54:48.239
Yeah they sixty wins. Yeah yeah, playing them on a

1317
00:54:48.280 --> 00:54:51.599
back to back, we already always blow back to backs,

1318
00:54:51.719 --> 00:54:53.320
no matter how hot of a streak we're on. If

1319
00:54:53.360 --> 00:54:56.239
we're playing back to back, we play like absolute dog shit.

1320
00:54:56.599 --> 00:54:58.760
We might see mister Christy on the sideline of Sex

1321
00:54:58.800 --> 00:54:59.599
State next season.

1322
00:55:00.079 --> 00:55:04.920
Help him to be out. Maybe Christie's falling, but that's

1323
00:55:04.960 --> 00:55:07.480
how the game goes. It is, it's not but he's also.

1324
00:55:07.599 --> 00:55:09.360
To be working for us, you know, just swapping that position.

1325
00:55:09.400 --> 00:55:11.119
Well he's yeah, he's not doing enough to win either.

1326
00:55:11.280 --> 00:55:13.079
Its time was supposed to be there. He shouldn't even

1327
00:55:13.079 --> 00:55:14.840
have been the head coach. I mean, I like Christy

1328
00:55:14.920 --> 00:55:17.000
and when we when we first came in, he was

1329
00:55:17.039 --> 00:55:18.400
crushing it and things were looking good.

1330
00:55:18.440 --> 00:55:19.320
But we can't. We can't.

1331
00:55:19.360 --> 00:55:20.920
He shouldn't have been in that position.

1332
00:55:21.000 --> 00:55:22.679
And talk about having best coaches all the time.

1333
00:55:22.719 --> 00:55:24.440
We had one of the top five coaches in the

1334
00:55:24.519 --> 00:55:26.760
league when we fired him. My problem with the whole

1335
00:55:26.800 --> 00:55:28.639
Christie thing not to go on a tangent, but it's like,

1336
00:55:29.400 --> 00:55:31.440
you know what, we could have groomed Christie to actually

1337
00:55:31.480 --> 00:55:33.920
be a head coach. It's just it wasn't now, wasn't

1338
00:55:33.920 --> 00:55:36.159
the time, No, no, but like fourth or third or

1339
00:55:36.159 --> 00:55:37.960
fourth on the totem pole to even be in that position.

1340
00:55:38.000 --> 00:55:39.480
All of a sudden, he's in there, in that position,

1341
00:55:39.519 --> 00:55:42.679
and then he's failing. Now it's going to potentially Chris

1342
00:55:42.760 --> 00:55:45.599
King fans in the future potentially maybe have him coach

1343
00:55:46.800 --> 00:55:48.360
watching him like we did all three days.

1344
00:55:48.360 --> 00:55:49.760
He's not gonna get hired no where else. He's gonna

1345
00:55:49.760 --> 00:55:51.599
have to go back to being an assistance. It's bullshit.

1346
00:55:51.840 --> 00:55:53.760
It sucks, I mean, but just even fire Mike Brown

1347
00:55:53.760 --> 00:55:55.480
to begin with, that was so dumb.

1348
00:55:55.559 --> 00:55:58.840
That was I've read a bunch of behind the scenes

1349
00:55:58.840 --> 00:55:59.199
on that.

1350
00:55:59.440 --> 00:56:00.559
I still can't figure out.

1351
00:56:00.559 --> 00:56:03.400
It's just it's all marketing and what you show the

1352
00:56:03.400 --> 00:56:05.280
world Hey, we're making big changes, to make big.

1353
00:56:05.159 --> 00:56:07.239
Changes like that's it's just a game. The whole thing

1354
00:56:07.280 --> 00:56:10.679
is a game. But also you know the public faces

1355
00:56:10.800 --> 00:56:11.639
of it is they look.

1356
00:56:11.559 --> 00:56:15.079
Like idiots, right, Yeah, It's just been in sports for

1357
00:56:15.079 --> 00:56:17.400
so long. It always happens, right, Like it happens in

1358
00:56:17.440 --> 00:56:19.880
every sport and it will happen forever. And if there's

1359
00:56:20.039 --> 00:56:23.920
one rumor, you know, Darren Fox doesn't like Mike Brown, but.

1360
00:56:23.840 --> 00:56:25.440
That was that was totally not true.

1361
00:56:25.480 --> 00:56:26.880
It was the opposite.

1362
00:56:27.280 --> 00:56:29.639
I'm just saying, if that get if that gets floats around,

1363
00:56:29.719 --> 00:56:30.280
then he's gone.

1364
00:56:30.440 --> 00:56:33.440
That was the more realistic thing is that, like they

1365
00:56:33.480 --> 00:56:36.239
wanted to get rid of Fox and have him step out,

1366
00:56:36.320 --> 00:56:39.719
and Lamb did say, Jeremy Lamb did, Yeah, that's what

1367
00:56:39.719 --> 00:56:41.400
I'm saying. So what do you do? You say you

1368
00:56:41.480 --> 00:56:43.639
do the one thing that Fox said he would leave

1369
00:56:43.679 --> 00:56:45.239
if you did, and you fire Mike Brown.

1370
00:56:45.320 --> 00:56:47.760
No, it's toast. It's toast as a bonus. Is already

1371
00:56:47.800 --> 00:56:49.360
talking about like, yeah, I got to see the direction

1372
00:56:49.440 --> 00:56:51.079
before I resigned, like it were toast.

1373
00:56:51.559 --> 00:56:54.800
There's stuff sleeves that we'll win thirty games next year.

1374
00:56:54.880 --> 00:56:57.400
We're done for. There's no five D chess going on here.

1375
00:56:57.599 --> 00:56:58.719
No, no, it's pretty bad.

1376
00:56:58.920 --> 00:57:01.239
The players have all the power on the kinks.

1377
00:57:01.320 --> 00:57:03.360
Yeah, in the league now that is kind of an issue.

1378
00:57:03.360 --> 00:57:06.599
But yeah, especially yes, we haven't. No, well, we got

1379
00:57:06.639 --> 00:57:09.719
no money. It's beyond just basketball. We're in the ships

1380
00:57:09.719 --> 00:57:13.039
and every everything to do with the build a good organization.

1381
00:57:13.119 --> 00:57:14.920
Right now, we've got no money. We've got all these

1382
00:57:14.960 --> 00:57:17.079
guys that are aging out or like the oldest team

1383
00:57:17.079 --> 00:57:19.719
in the league and the most expensive team, and they

1384
00:57:19.719 --> 00:57:22.599
can't mash even though they should, Like on paper, we're ballers,

1385
00:57:22.920 --> 00:57:24.599
you know, and I love those like I'm a big

1386
00:57:24.599 --> 00:57:26.559
de Rosen fan. I'm a big Levine fan, but he

1387
00:57:26.599 --> 00:57:28.400
has not come together. Let's not come together.

1388
00:57:29.360 --> 00:57:33.719
Nope, all right, let's let's give our rating on this one.

1389
00:57:33.920 --> 00:57:35.880
I don't think there's anything else that I can use

1390
00:57:35.920 --> 00:57:37.320
other than gold medals on this one.

1391
00:57:37.559 --> 00:57:38.159
Yeah, you got to.

1392
00:57:38.639 --> 00:57:39.199
I agree.

1393
00:57:39.639 --> 00:57:44.079
What's the next Olympics twenty eight here, the eight twenty

1394
00:57:44.119 --> 00:57:47.960
eight here? Ala, Yeah, there, we'll for sure get a

1395
00:57:47.960 --> 00:57:51.559
game up here then probably. Steph actually says in the

1396
00:57:51.599 --> 00:57:54.639
in the last episode that that curR is not going

1397
00:57:54.760 --> 00:57:59.239
to coach the next the next team, yeah, and that he's.

1398
00:57:59.039 --> 00:58:02.519
Going to do it and Lebron was standing there as like, yeah,

1399
00:58:02.559 --> 00:58:02.920
me too.

1400
00:58:03.599 --> 00:58:05.599
I mean, that's even a thing. We had coach K

1401
00:58:05.760 --> 00:58:07.760
for a really long time, and I think the only

1402
00:58:07.840 --> 00:58:11.679
reason he stopped is because he fully retired. Retired, Yeah,

1403
00:58:11.920 --> 00:58:12.599
because we we.

1404
00:58:12.559 --> 00:58:15.679
Had coach K maybe like twelve years.

1405
00:58:16.079 --> 00:58:17.880
I mean, it's kind of a question, is like, would

1406
00:58:17.920 --> 00:58:20.199
either one of them coach because they don't certainly need

1407
00:58:20.199 --> 00:58:21.440
it for them, they don't need the money.

1408
00:58:21.599 --> 00:58:24.599
Yeah, addicted to hoop Man, both of them would be good.

1409
00:58:24.639 --> 00:58:27.159
Of all players, it's like more of a new trend

1410
00:58:27.199 --> 00:58:28.440
for players to become coaches, but.

1411
00:58:28.519 --> 00:58:30.880
All commentate, because that's not like it's not like football

1412
00:58:31.199 --> 00:58:33.159
where like the best players go and commentate. That's not

1413
00:58:33.159 --> 00:58:33.559
what happens.

1414
00:58:34.239 --> 00:58:36.320
They did have doing coach though, they did have Duane

1415
00:58:36.360 --> 00:58:38.639
Wade do the Olympics. I don't know if you guys

1416
00:58:38.639 --> 00:58:40.519
watched some of those games, which was his first time.

1417
00:58:42.159 --> 00:58:42.880
He's in this dock.

1418
00:58:43.440 --> 00:58:46.239
It was his first commentating ever to do that. And

1419
00:58:46.280 --> 00:58:48.360
there's some you know, like Chris Weber was doing it

1420
00:58:48.400 --> 00:58:52.960
for a bit, Reggie Miller's obviously there, Chuck some of the.

1421
00:58:53.559 --> 00:58:55.039
I guess if you go on the inside NBA, I

1422
00:58:55.079 --> 00:58:58.199
met like like yeah, J.

1423
00:58:58.400 --> 00:59:02.679
Williams. The early Charles Barkley, not to not rate it.

1424
00:59:02.679 --> 00:59:05.199
The early Charles Barkley clips are so good to like,

1425
00:59:05.199 --> 00:59:08.000
people don't know Barkley was a bowl. People don't know

1426
00:59:08.039 --> 00:59:10.679
how good he was. He was so good.

1427
00:59:10.800 --> 00:59:12.800
He was like aunt too with the ship talking.

1428
00:59:12.519 --> 00:59:14.800
Bro and he's six six. He's six six playing seven

1429
00:59:14.840 --> 00:59:18.920
footers and bowllying them bro. But like just in his accent,

1430
00:59:18.960 --> 00:59:21.639
everything's so funny. So I don't know much about Serbia,

1431
00:59:21.679 --> 00:59:23.679
but we don't kill him or something.

1432
00:59:24.840 --> 00:59:28.000
He was like Muhammad Ali. Yeah, same accent, Like, yeah,

1433
00:59:28.079 --> 00:59:32.519
they had that same swag krill because it was Arkansas, Obama.

1434
00:59:32.719 --> 00:59:34.679
I think he's from I think he's from Alabama.

1435
00:59:34.760 --> 00:59:38.360
I think he's from Bama. Louisiana, they're one of those,

1436
00:59:38.679 --> 00:59:41.679
even though I think the South. Where's Muhammad Ali from Louisville?

1437
00:59:42.519 --> 00:59:44.599
From the South, Yeah, I think it's I'm not sure.

1438
00:59:44.760 --> 00:59:48.400
I mean Louisville. I think they count the South, is it, Yeah,

1439
00:59:48.760 --> 00:59:52.280
even though it's kind of not middle ground.

1440
00:59:53.280 --> 00:59:54.320
I was like just imagining.

1441
00:59:54.440 --> 00:59:57.280
I was just thinking about the the interviews of Steph

1442
00:59:57.400 --> 01:00:00.519
towards the end, he there's a been a lot of

1443
01:00:00.519 --> 01:00:05.159
comparisons over the years between Steph and Buster Posey. They

1444
01:00:05.519 --> 01:00:10.480
they have kind of similar poise, although uh, Steph is

1445
01:00:10.559 --> 01:00:18.039
not doesn't have as much trouble speaking, but they're their

1446
01:00:18.079 --> 01:00:22.320
attitude is very similar. And at the point that the

1447
01:00:22.360 --> 01:00:24.920
Buster retired, everyone was like, Okay, well, how is stuff

1448
01:00:24.960 --> 01:00:27.159
gonna go out? Like is he gonna decide to go

1449
01:00:27.199 --> 01:00:29.239
out on top or is he gonna wait till the

1450
01:00:29.239 --> 01:00:30.000
wheels fall.

1451
01:00:29.800 --> 01:00:30.480
Off or whatever?

1452
01:00:31.039 --> 01:00:34.480
But I could see because I you know, Buster is

1453
01:00:34.519 --> 01:00:36.880
now the head of baseball ops for for the for

1454
01:00:36.920 --> 01:00:39.039
the Giants, and that's like the youngest guy to ever

1455
01:00:39.119 --> 01:00:39.400
do that.

1456
01:00:40.000 --> 01:00:42.679
Yeah, that was a guarantee too, or you knew that

1457
01:00:42.760 --> 01:00:44.039
something like that was gonna happen for him.

1458
01:00:44.079 --> 01:00:46.119
Yeah, the same with Steph. Steph could do anything you want.

1459
01:00:46.239 --> 01:00:48.000
I still think STEP's can be in the league much longer.

1460
01:00:48.480 --> 01:00:50.840
No, I mean he's he's a year older than me.

1461
01:00:52.159 --> 01:00:54.519
I think he's a year older. He's got a brand.

1462
01:00:54.599 --> 01:00:56.280
But my point is he could do anything he wants.

1463
01:00:56.320 --> 01:00:59.239
Like the Warriors owe him everything. Yeah, if he said,

1464
01:00:59.239 --> 01:01:01.000
like I want to own now, they'll just hand them

1465
01:01:01.000 --> 01:01:02.239
over the pink slip like they.

1466
01:01:02.400 --> 01:01:04.400
My favorite part about the first two episodes, at least

1467
01:01:04.400 --> 01:01:06.400
was when Durant was like, you can have all the

1468
01:01:06.480 --> 01:01:09.360
chemistry you want, you still got us to guard Steph Curry.

1469
01:01:09.719 --> 01:01:12.800
Like what do you what do you mean chemistry? You're

1470
01:01:12.840 --> 01:01:15.199
not guarding Steph Curry. No one's garding Steph Curry.

1471
01:01:15.239 --> 01:01:18.280
That is like both of those facts are true. Like again,

1472
01:01:18.320 --> 01:01:21.280
like all these international teams grow up playing on the

1473
01:01:21.320 --> 01:01:23.280
same team, you know, and like you do see it,

1474
01:01:23.320 --> 01:01:25.079
like you watch the hoop and it's just so different,

1475
01:01:25.119 --> 01:01:25.559
and it's.

1476
01:01:25.440 --> 01:01:29.079
What they were claiming. Otherwise, the French France was like, oh,

1477
01:01:29.079 --> 01:01:30.239
we don't you know, we all get to play with

1478
01:01:30.239 --> 01:01:32.639
each other for four weeks, you know, these guys and

1479
01:01:32.679 --> 01:01:33.280
blah blah.

1480
01:01:33.119 --> 01:01:34.719
No, no, no, I think he was talking about the US.

1481
01:01:36.079 --> 01:01:38.440
I think Durant was saying, like they want to talk

1482
01:01:38.480 --> 01:01:40.880
shit about Oh maybe they were saying that that they

1483
01:01:40.920 --> 01:01:41.880
have all the chemistry.

1484
01:01:42.000 --> 01:01:44.280
Yeah, that's what they're saying. They're making the same argument.

1485
01:01:44.320 --> 01:01:46.039
You're saying, like all the like the US League's to

1486
01:01:46.079 --> 01:01:49.920
practice for two weeks, we have this flow because again,

1487
01:01:49.960 --> 01:01:51.639
like they all went to that institute, they basically went

1488
01:01:51.679 --> 01:01:53.920
to high school together and then some of them even

1489
01:01:53.960 --> 01:01:57.320
college because Wemby and them, now obviously a lot of

1490
01:01:57.360 --> 01:01:59.760
people come to college. In the US it's more common,

1491
01:01:59.800 --> 01:02:01.559
but in the nineties and even early two k's you

1492
01:02:01.599 --> 01:02:03.679
would just stay there and they didn't really have college

1493
01:02:04.159 --> 01:02:05.639
and back then you could go to the league at

1494
01:02:05.679 --> 01:02:07.920
any age, so they would go to these institutes and

1495
01:02:08.000 --> 01:02:10.119
just like ball out together. There's like and they have

1496
01:02:10.159 --> 01:02:12.639
World Cups everywhere, like soccer. They have the euro World Cup,

1497
01:02:12.719 --> 01:02:16.719
they have the fucking all of you know whatever, World Cup,

1498
01:02:16.719 --> 01:02:18.880
and they'd go and play these legs or they'd just

1499
01:02:18.920 --> 01:02:21.719
be pro, right, similar to soccer where Luca Luca has

1500
01:02:21.760 --> 01:02:24.800
been a pro since he's fifteen. Yeah, I think the Vladies,

1501
01:02:24.800 --> 01:02:26.920
the Stoyakovic the same thing. They didn't go to college.

1502
01:02:26.920 --> 01:02:28.639
They just turned pro and then when they were good

1503
01:02:28.719 --> 01:02:32.199
enough in Europe pro, they'd come here. Joannis kind of

1504
01:02:32.239 --> 01:02:34.679
broke that where he played pro and came here, and

1505
01:02:34.719 --> 01:02:37.079
then now a lot of guys will just because of

1506
01:02:37.079 --> 01:02:39.599
the Internet, you just come play college here.

1507
01:02:40.440 --> 01:02:44.840
Ali definitely born in Louisville. Yeah, Louisville, Louisville.

1508
01:02:45.079 --> 01:02:48.679
Yeah, those accents, I love them. I'll probably watch the

1509
01:02:48.719 --> 01:02:52.239
rest of it. Sports docs have my heart. I just

1510
01:02:52.360 --> 01:02:55.559
like them all because of the emotion, the dad's stuff

1511
01:02:55.639 --> 01:03:01.119
with RJ. Barrett just all that always gets me. And

1512
01:03:01.159 --> 01:03:03.920
then yeah, like I do agree, every sports doc is

1513
01:03:03.960 --> 01:03:05.679
gonna kind of look the same, you know.

1514
01:03:05.760 --> 01:03:08.760
But but also at this every good one yeah yeah,

1515
01:03:08.800 --> 01:03:10.880
but that's what really, it's hard to break them all

1516
01:03:10.960 --> 01:03:12.360
high when you have a lot of money.

1517
01:03:12.360 --> 01:03:13.239
This is what they look like.

1518
01:03:13.480 --> 01:03:15.599
Yeah, and when you get deep enough, you can't get

1519
01:03:15.639 --> 01:03:18.519
too deep because these guys are already stars, right, Like,

1520
01:03:18.679 --> 01:03:20.760
you're not gonna allow Kevin duran to go vlog as

1521
01:03:20.920 --> 01:03:22.039
fucking hotel room.

1522
01:03:22.079 --> 01:03:26.760
It's the marvel of documentaries. It's not like Tarantinos. Yeah,

1523
01:03:27.199 --> 01:03:28.239
indie doc And if.

1524
01:03:28.119 --> 01:03:31.039
You get Kevin Durant crying, like that's probably as human

1525
01:03:31.079 --> 01:03:34.400
as you're gonna get with this level of star did yeah, right, Like.

1526
01:03:34.320 --> 01:03:36.119
You're not gonna was crazy. You're not gonna let it.

1527
01:03:36.199 --> 01:03:37.960
He's not gonna vlog for you, you know, Like these

1528
01:03:38.000 --> 01:03:40.159
guys are private, they're in a different world. They didn't

1529
01:03:40.159 --> 01:03:43.280
grow up with that ship and they're just not about it.

1530
01:03:43.320 --> 01:03:46.199
Maybe next generation, right, you got like Jared McCain, who's

1531
01:03:46.239 --> 01:03:48.519
a fucking TikTok star and Rookie of the Year in

1532
01:03:48.519 --> 01:03:50.760
the NBA, Like you might get that guy to give

1533
01:03:50.760 --> 01:03:52.599
you anything you want, but these guys just aren't on

1534
01:03:52.599 --> 01:03:54.400
that level. So I think as personal as you can

1535
01:03:54.440 --> 01:03:56.920
get here or like run Ricky Run. If you guys

1536
01:03:56.960 --> 01:04:00.679
seen that documentary about Ricky Williams leaving the NFL at

1537
01:04:00.679 --> 01:04:03.159
his prime and he literally moved up to Colfax here

1538
01:04:04.480 --> 01:04:07.880
and became a yogi. Like he's letting you into his house,

1539
01:04:07.920 --> 01:04:10.000
but he's on some crazy spiritual journeys, you know, so

1540
01:04:10.039 --> 01:04:10.639
he's allowing you.

1541
01:04:10.880 --> 01:04:11.800
It was crazy spiritual.

1542
01:04:12.519 --> 01:04:14.440
That's that's why I got kicked out. He got he

1543
01:04:14.480 --> 01:04:16.679
got kept getting suspended from marijuana, and he's like, well

1544
01:04:16.719 --> 01:04:19.639
fuck that, Like this allows me to relax after games

1545
01:04:19.679 --> 01:04:20.480
if you don't allow me to.

1546
01:04:20.440 --> 01:04:22.119
Smoke a play, which was so stupid.

1547
01:04:22.119 --> 01:04:25.000
No, especially in hindsight, Right in hindsight.

1548
01:04:25.079 --> 01:04:27.320
Yeah, he was Kevin in that letterman.

1549
01:04:27.440 --> 01:04:30.159
Kevin Durant is like a biggest investor in weed companies. Yeah,

1550
01:04:30.199 --> 01:04:32.559
and his letterman things all about weed, not all, but

1551
01:04:32.719 --> 01:04:34.920
like a big portion of him talk about the industry.

1552
01:04:35.760 --> 01:04:38.679
So yeah, obviously that's shitty. But besides those type of

1553
01:04:38.719 --> 01:04:41.760
interviews that are like randoms, you know, you randomly get

1554
01:04:41.760 --> 01:04:44.360
the perfect thing where you could talk to somebody really deep.

1555
01:04:44.440 --> 01:04:46.960
I think this interview did a good job of making

1556
01:04:47.000 --> 01:04:50.079
it special to the person, which we've talked about with

1557
01:04:50.119 --> 01:04:53.000
these other bodybuilding ones, even those you know, like they

1558
01:04:53.039 --> 01:04:55.719
just don't like open up. Yeah, Like if you get

1559
01:04:55.800 --> 01:04:59.280
Kevin Durant opening up more than like bodybuilders, how do

1560
01:04:59.320 --> 01:05:01.039
you ever expect make bodybuilding cool?

1561
01:05:01.639 --> 01:05:02.159
Yeah, Like the.

1562
01:05:02.159 --> 01:05:04.639
Sport of basketball is already more dynamic, more popular, and

1563
01:05:04.679 --> 01:05:06.920
now you get these guys telling better stories and being

1564
01:05:06.920 --> 01:05:10.480
more authentic than these you know, like, dude, we're not

1565
01:05:10.480 --> 01:05:12.599
gonna get anywhere. We're not gonna make our sport cool

1566
01:05:12.639 --> 01:05:15.440
if you're gonna act tough, if you're gonna.

1567
01:05:15.199 --> 01:05:16.079
Be so closed off at it.

1568
01:05:16.119 --> 01:05:19.960
Maybe maybe I don't know, maybe you don't it generally

1569
01:05:20.519 --> 01:05:24.440
succeed or exceed in in bodybuilding if you don't have

1570
01:05:24.480 --> 01:05:28.840
that fuckingland. It's like the bland food, the bland personality.

1571
01:05:29.480 --> 01:05:32.559
We're basketball again. Like again I'm biased as it gets,

1572
01:05:32.559 --> 01:05:35.519
but like all these guys are good interviews and they're funny.

1573
01:05:35.800 --> 01:05:37.719
You know, like why is that? Because it's a social

1574
01:05:37.719 --> 01:05:39.960
team game. They grew up talking shit, they grew up

1575
01:05:40.119 --> 01:05:42.639
doing all this stuff. You know, like you can kind

1576
01:05:42.639 --> 01:05:45.119
of grab any even Tyrese Haliburton who's kind of awkward.

1577
01:05:45.480 --> 01:05:47.559
It is still pretty good in those interviews. You know,

1578
01:05:47.559 --> 01:05:49.800
he's kind of a weird kid, uh, and he's still

1579
01:05:49.800 --> 01:05:54.159
pretty good in those. So out of five golds, I

1580
01:05:54.159 --> 01:05:57.320
don't know what our highest rating ever, probably Icarus probably,

1581
01:05:57.360 --> 01:05:59.119
which I assume was I probably give like a four

1582
01:05:59.119 --> 01:06:03.320
to eight, like a I'll give this like a four, four, five, four,

1583
01:06:03.440 --> 01:06:06.800
four to three, five, somewhere in that range, maybe even

1584
01:06:06.840 --> 01:06:08.400
a four or five. Yeah, it's good. I got to

1585
01:06:08.400 --> 01:06:10.559
finish it, for sure. I know the story talk about

1586
01:06:10.599 --> 01:06:12.119
turnaround time though. I think this came out in like

1587
01:06:12.159 --> 01:06:16.119
December January February. Dude, to whip that out in six seven.

1588
01:06:16.079 --> 01:06:18.559
Considering the amount of footage they had because because for

1589
01:06:18.599 --> 01:06:22.800
the most part, they didn't use the network coverage.

1590
01:06:22.519 --> 01:06:24.440
Right, Yeah, they had their own cams, their own camp

1591
01:06:24.519 --> 01:06:25.800
practice and interviews.

1592
01:06:25.840 --> 01:06:27.880
Clearly Netflix it's full access every.

1593
01:06:27.800 --> 01:06:30.000
Yeah, for sure. And it was what ended July. It

1594
01:06:30.039 --> 01:06:32.599
probably the tournament probably ended or mid July July twenties.

1595
01:06:32.639 --> 01:06:34.280
So you had to whip this thing out in seven months.

1596
01:06:35.079 --> 01:06:36.480
You're hard not to give it a four or five.

1597
01:06:37.199 --> 01:06:38.559
Yeah, I me, I like, Doug give it a four.

1598
01:06:38.719 --> 01:06:42.079
I just I don't care about the other teams that much,

1599
01:06:42.760 --> 01:06:44.800
you know, like those parts are slower.

1600
01:06:45.039 --> 01:06:47.039
Did they dig into Joe kitchen at all later a

1601
01:06:47.079 --> 01:06:49.199
little bit? Yeah, because he's not that great of it.

1602
01:06:49.320 --> 01:06:51.400
He's a decent interview, but obviously he's English and like

1603
01:06:51.400 --> 01:06:52.320
everything's a little broken.

1604
01:06:52.800 --> 01:06:55.440
I think he's more fun to watch in the in

1605
01:06:55.480 --> 01:06:56.159
the locker room.

1606
01:06:56.239 --> 01:06:59.119
Yeah, yeah, being natural. Yeah, if I could pick make

1607
01:06:59.199 --> 01:07:02.719
this like to cater to me liking it better, would

1608
01:07:02.760 --> 01:07:05.639
have been like two or three episodes just about the

1609
01:07:05.639 --> 01:07:08.840
team USA. Yeah. Yeah, if it was just all bit

1610
01:07:08.920 --> 01:07:10.880
but that's but then like with like little bits of

1611
01:07:11.000 --> 01:07:13.079
like I know, it's just different. It's a different documentary.

1612
01:07:13.199 --> 01:07:15.599
But like the other guys, like I don't really I

1613
01:07:15.800 --> 01:07:18.760
care about they're cool, but like hearing about Joker and

1614
01:07:19.440 --> 01:07:21.199
you know, I don't know. But besides those guys, like

1615
01:07:21.280 --> 01:07:23.639
the other American.

1616
01:07:23.280 --> 01:07:23.880
You're about it.

1617
01:07:24.679 --> 01:07:28.039
I would say that like a pain point for some people.

1618
01:07:28.079 --> 01:07:31.079
It's going to be reading the close captions on the

1619
01:07:31.559 --> 01:07:36.880
French team and in this Serbian team and you know.

1620
01:07:37.039 --> 01:07:37.920
Even the Canadians.

1621
01:07:37.960 --> 01:07:38.079
Bro.

1622
01:07:38.199 --> 01:07:42.760
You hear all the accents, you hear the fucking we're

1623
01:07:42.800 --> 01:07:47.440
going to the Olympics. Now, It's not like what's the

1624
01:07:47.519 --> 01:07:50.280
name Brooks, not Aaron. I forgot his name, but he

1625
01:07:50.360 --> 01:07:53.719
talks just like that Holy Leaf playing the US in

1626
01:07:53.800 --> 01:07:56.119
the Paris film. You know, we're going to the Olympics.

1627
01:07:56.559 --> 01:07:58.960
It's not like other sports where like they you know,

1628
01:07:59.039 --> 01:08:01.719
they put so and so on this team because they

1629
01:08:01.760 --> 01:08:05.159
have like a taste of this heritage, you know what

1630
01:08:05.199 --> 01:08:08.480
I mean? Yeah, Yeah, it's like there, that's where they're

1631
01:08:08.480 --> 01:08:10.320
really from. No. One percent.

1632
01:08:10.599 --> 01:08:17.560
Yeah, I think sometimes because Embiid Embiid played for France

1633
01:08:18.560 --> 01:08:20.920
last time, and he was on our team this time

1634
01:08:21.119 --> 01:08:24.479
because he's like Cameroonian, French and American or something like that.

1635
01:08:24.520 --> 01:08:26.760
Don't maybe Ivory Coast, I don't think so.

1636
01:08:26.760 --> 01:08:28.840
I think Uys can just take anybody, right, because that's

1637
01:08:28.840 --> 01:08:31.479
our whole melting pot of well we could choose, we could.

1638
01:08:31.359 --> 01:08:34.600
Choose if they're citizens or whatever, right like they say

1639
01:08:34.640 --> 01:08:37.239
with Kyrie, Like Kyrie's talking about playing for Australia next

1640
01:08:37.279 --> 01:08:38.560
time because he's Aboriginal.

1641
01:08:40.359 --> 01:08:41.000
Uh.

1642
01:08:41.039 --> 01:08:43.000
And there's been back and forth. But I'm pretty sure

1643
01:08:43.039 --> 01:08:48.720
Embiid in twenty twenty played for France or somebody else possible.

1644
01:08:48.800 --> 01:08:49.319
I can't believe.

1645
01:08:49.359 --> 01:08:52.720
I forget or you honest, Yeah, Joannis could play for

1646
01:08:52.800 --> 01:08:55.000
us now right. I'm sure he's a citizen of some nature,

1647
01:08:55.039 --> 01:08:57.319
but he chose to go there, which is funny too

1648
01:08:57.319 --> 01:09:00.239
because there's a shitty Disney movie based on his life

1649
01:09:00.359 --> 01:09:02.760
that shows how racist the Greeks word of him as

1650
01:09:02.800 --> 01:09:05.880
a kid. Yeah yeah, yeah, So I don't know why

1651
01:09:05.920 --> 01:09:09.079
he chose to go there, but he could have played

1652
01:09:09.079 --> 01:09:11.119
for us too, because he's I mean, he's MVP twice

1653
01:09:11.159 --> 01:09:12.920
or whatever the last six years too, Like he's arguably

1654
01:09:12.960 --> 01:09:13.399
just as good.

1655
01:09:13.560 --> 01:09:17.640
Yeah, I would give this one. I'm gonna give this

1656
01:09:17.680 --> 01:09:22.039
one four and a half and I'm almost inching up

1657
01:09:22.079 --> 01:09:25.079
towards five for one moment in the whole fucking thing,

1658
01:09:26.239 --> 01:09:31.760
whether you like Steve Kerr, however you feel about Steph.

1659
01:09:31.439 --> 01:09:36.159
After the the final buzzer of the gold medal game,

1660
01:09:37.239 --> 01:09:40.520
Kerr goes up to to Steph, gives him a hug,

1661
01:09:40.600 --> 01:09:43.680
and he says, I am so lucky to have you

1662
01:09:43.720 --> 01:09:45.720
in my life.

1663
01:09:45.920 --> 01:09:49.199
Yeah. There's a lot of heavy moments and it's like wow,

1664
01:09:49.520 --> 01:09:54.119
like if yeah, wow, And you can't hate Kerr as

1665
01:09:54.159 --> 01:09:56.800
a Kings fan, like we hated Kerr, we hated Steph

1666
01:09:57.039 --> 01:09:59.720
during that time. Yeah, but it's like I've I think

1667
01:10:00.079 --> 01:10:03.000
most of us have at this point now that STEP's

1668
01:10:03.039 --> 01:10:05.920
like matured and got not even matured, but now that

1669
01:10:05.960 --> 01:10:09.119
he's just not completely killing us every single and just

1670
01:10:09.199 --> 01:10:12.079
killing our hearts. I've come full circle with Steph as

1671
01:10:12.159 --> 01:10:14.680
like a fan now, yeah, you know what I mean.

1672
01:10:16.319 --> 01:10:18.520
Curs Kerr Like, I've never had really any problems with Kurr.

1673
01:10:19.920 --> 01:10:22.199
Great guy was way back in the day because he

1674
01:10:22.399 --> 01:10:27.520
played at Arizona with Tom Tolbert. Tolbert was on Barrier

1675
01:10:27.640 --> 01:10:29.640
Radio forever and ever and ever, and Kurr used to

1676
01:10:29.680 --> 01:10:30.399
be on quite a bit.

1677
01:10:30.520 --> 01:10:32.560
Kerr might be a Bayry guy. He might be an

1678
01:10:32.600 --> 01:10:36.079
East Bay guy maybe like thee where Barry and Tom

1679
01:10:36.119 --> 01:10:44.039
go uh cirrus serie serious, look wherever they went, he's

1680
01:10:44.039 --> 01:10:44.520
in that area.

1681
01:10:45.319 --> 01:10:45.760
Big shot.

1682
01:10:45.840 --> 01:10:47.880
Didn't Bonds go to Dela South, No, I went to

1683
01:10:47.960 --> 01:10:51.000
like fuck bro, I can't remember, not serious high school,

1684
01:10:51.680 --> 01:10:53.600
but I think him and Tom went to the same spot.

1685
01:10:54.239 --> 01:10:55.840
It's in the same area as De La Cell but

1686
01:10:56.840 --> 01:10:59.920
Bro blanking no, they have freak out.

1687
01:11:00.039 --> 01:11:03.199
He's down there, Skurrs just he's got the full package,

1688
01:11:03.239 --> 01:11:03.960
He's got the person.

1689
01:11:04.840 --> 01:11:05.880
He's from Arizona.

1690
01:11:05.920 --> 01:11:08.319
Actually, Kerr, that's why he went to Arizona.

1691
01:11:08.359 --> 01:11:10.399
But the other two are he gives me East Baking

1692
01:11:10.439 --> 01:11:13.479
Guy vibes. But yeah, Berry and Tom went to funk

1693
01:11:13.560 --> 01:11:18.159
Bro something like siri. Uh.

1694
01:11:18.560 --> 01:11:21.439
Palisades in New York is where I don't know. In

1695
01:11:21.600 --> 01:11:24.359
l A is where Kerr went high school. Palistates High

1696
01:11:24.359 --> 01:11:29.279
School now Poli States High Charter High School probably now

1697
01:11:29.359 --> 01:11:31.479
Palisades Cinder High School.

1698
01:11:31.239 --> 01:11:33.840
Because it probably went up and smoked. But Chris Webber

1699
01:11:34.119 --> 01:11:37.279
High School, Palistates part of country Day. There's multiple country Days,

1700
01:11:37.279 --> 01:11:39.399
but he went to one around here. I think Weber

1701
01:11:40.479 --> 01:11:42.600
Country Day. He went to Country Day, not here, not

1702
01:11:42.600 --> 01:11:44.319
not archives or was it. I don't know.

1703
01:11:44.560 --> 01:11:46.079
I think he's I think he's I think he's a

1704
01:11:46.079 --> 01:11:49.359
Michigan guy. That's why he went to Michigan. There is

1705
01:11:49.359 --> 01:11:52.920

01:11:56.439 --> 01:11:57.680

1711
01:12:06.439 --> 01:12:09.359

and then went to Stanford and played.

1713
01:12:13.199 --> 01:12:15.199
I grew up with what is country Day, like a

1714
01:12:15.239 --> 01:12:15.920
private school.

1715
01:12:16.000 --> 01:12:17.600
Yeah, it's actually I think the best I got to

1716
01:12:17.600 --> 01:12:21.000
Mike School. Tom Hanks kid went there to chet. I

1717
01:12:21.000 --> 01:12:23.560
think the one below not Jet that's in a show

1718
01:12:23.600 --> 01:12:27.600
that looks not the not the White Boy on Colin Colin,

1719
01:12:28.119 --> 01:12:29.960
Colin grew up in Sac. I think Colin went to

1720
01:12:29.960 --> 01:12:32.359
the Country Day and he's like an NBA player or

1721
01:12:32.399 --> 01:12:34.000
like a football player, dude.

1722
01:12:33.760 --> 01:12:34.760
And it's so funny.

That's like super big, like one of those shows you

1731
01:12:59.920 --> 01:13:02.920

1732
01:13:03.000 --> 01:13:04.640

He was like on the show with Terrence just broke

1736
01:13:11.319 --> 01:13:14.720
something that someone's never broke before or something on Twitter.

1737
01:13:14.800 --> 01:13:16.880
I don't know what it was. Broke some theorem that

1738
01:13:16.960 --> 01:13:21.079
someone's never able to theorize. I thought bone No, no, no,

1739
01:13:21.159 --> 01:13:25.359
like some crazy you know, tesla theory or something. I'm

1740
01:13:25.399 --> 01:13:26.399
kind of physics.

1741
01:13:26.399 --> 01:13:28.159
All right, what is Chet Hanks? And this is just

1742
01:13:28.199 --> 01:13:31.079
on our way out the door here? Oh White Boys

1743
01:13:31.119 --> 01:13:35.319
Summer Running Running Point, that basketball show on uh it's

1744
01:13:35.359 --> 01:13:36.640
new Netflix just came out.

1745
01:13:36.680 --> 01:13:38.119
Oh yeah, see, that's what I was talking about earlier,

1746
01:13:38.159 --> 01:13:39.800
is about some like lady running the team who's like

1747
01:13:39.800 --> 01:13:40.199
an owner.

1748
01:13:40.399 --> 01:13:42.600
Yeah, he's on that. He's like one of the main characters.

1749
01:13:42.640 --> 01:13:46.760
That's so funny and he's hilarious in that show. Do

1750
01:13:46.760 --> 01:13:48.239
you think his other show was just like a gig

1751
01:13:48.279 --> 01:13:50.319
then or like a rebellion? Didn't think that it was. No,

1752
01:13:50.399 --> 01:13:52.199
I think it was like a bit.

1753
01:13:53.039 --> 01:13:58.079
Yeah, yeah, Running Point Dead wrong, You're Atlanta.

1754
01:13:57.640 --> 01:14:00.680
Atlanta, Atlanta's he was on Atlanta for a minut. It

1755
01:14:00.880 --> 01:14:05.199
like one app one app in New Orleans. Oh man,

1756
01:14:05.199 --> 01:14:07.119
that must have be mistakes with his dad and Greyhound,

1757
01:14:07.119 --> 01:14:09.199
which was not a good. Empire there is twenty four

1758
01:14:09.199 --> 01:14:12.359
episodes of Empire. Ah, that's what I was thinking. It

1759
01:14:12.439 --> 01:14:15.039
was a recurring character, and yeah, he was big on Empire.

1760
01:14:15.359 --> 01:14:22.000
He didn't have two episodes of Curb, did he really? Yeah? Interesting?

1761
01:14:23.039 --> 01:14:26.119
He was in the Fantastic Four, one of the big imbd.

1762
01:14:26.720 --> 01:14:31.319
Yeah, well you know Nepo Baby, I Guessana Jones and

1763
01:14:31.359 --> 01:14:32.159
the Crystal Skull.

1764
01:14:32.439 --> 01:14:38.520
Yep, that's interesting. Yeah, I don't know how we got

1765
01:14:38.560 --> 01:14:41.199
the chethankslame me for that, I don't know.

1766
01:14:41.880 --> 01:14:45.199
Welcome, Yeah, join us the next week for Chethang Summer.

1767
01:14:45.319 --> 01:14:46.840
Yeah, well we'll watch Running Point.

1768
01:14:47.840 --> 01:14:50.880
I tried. It felt too like netflixy it felt like

1769
01:14:51.000 --> 01:14:53.560
old And I'm sure it's fine. It's probably me.

1770
01:14:53.800 --> 01:14:55.079
You know, it's not you, it's me.

1771
01:14:56.439 --> 01:14:58.439
But you know, like early Netflix series just had like

1772
01:14:58.439 --> 01:15:03.039
this kind of like almost like shitty sitcom vibe to it. Yeah,

1773
01:15:03.119 --> 01:15:04.920
you know this, I only watched you know a little

1774
01:15:04.960 --> 01:15:07.359
bit in the back close. Yeah, it kind of had

1775
01:15:07.399 --> 01:15:08.880
like one of them to it kind of felt like

1776
01:15:08.920 --> 01:15:11.119
a twenty fifteen Netflix deal. And maybe it is good

1777
01:15:11.119 --> 01:15:13.520
because but then also they put it number one ranked

1778
01:15:13.520 --> 01:15:15.960
like they're clearly lying right, well, you know how they

1779
01:15:16.000 --> 01:15:19.439
ranked their sh Yeah they clearly that's alreadypos. I don't know,

1780
01:15:19.600 --> 01:15:21.439
but they have to put their own ship there, they

1781
01:15:21.520 --> 01:15:25.119
joke the Yeah, I mean that's what Drake's sing about.

1782
01:15:25.600 --> 01:15:28.720
Not Netflix, but the same thing. Oh with the music. Yeah,

1783
01:15:28.840 --> 01:15:29.600
that's what it's about.

1784
01:15:29.720 --> 01:15:34.520
Yeah, it's about uh Spotify and people planting views, which

1785
01:15:34.760 --> 01:15:38.760
they clearly do Tooould you go to any rap playlist

1786
01:15:39.039 --> 01:15:42.199
and any genre timeline whatever, and that Kendrick song pops

1787
01:15:42.199 --> 01:15:44.960
in there, Like, well how that end up in there?

1788
01:15:46.479 --> 01:15:46.920
Interesting?

1789
01:15:47.079 --> 01:15:49.279
Yeah? All right, So what's our average? Yeah, we had

1790
01:15:49.319 --> 01:15:51.319
like a four four four to three. Yeah, yeah, probably

1791
01:15:51.319 --> 01:15:54.159
worth the watch kids, probably, Sorry, Generation Iron, your shit

1792
01:15:54.239 --> 01:15:55.079
sucks compared.

1793
01:15:54.800 --> 01:15:57.039
If you like the Olympics, if you like, you know,

1794
01:15:57.640 --> 01:16:00.159
some real emotions and some real it's it's a real

1795
01:16:00.199 --> 01:16:01.119
It felt real, it felt good.

1796
01:16:01.239 --> 01:16:03.800
It felt real, and and we're at high again, we're

1797
01:16:03.840 --> 01:16:06.760
at the highest caliber like quote unquote athlete celebrity and

1798
01:16:06.800 --> 01:16:09.600
it felt real. Yeah, like you can't really ask more

1799
01:16:09.680 --> 01:16:11.439
for just that. And yeah, you know, like some of

1800
01:16:11.479 --> 01:16:13.720
the shots are a little espn E or whatever, you know,

1801
01:16:13.920 --> 01:16:15.239
like a little overproduced.

1802
01:16:15.800 --> 01:16:19.479
But this could be a factor of though that we've

1803
01:16:19.520 --> 01:16:23.960
watched a lot of really bad bodybuilding lately. But again

1804
01:16:24.159 --> 01:16:27.000
we watched like something with like millions of dollars behind it.

1805
01:16:27.279 --> 01:16:29.840
But sure like Icarus again, me and Jim agree, like

1806
01:16:29.960 --> 01:16:31.640
is one of our favorite dogs all time. But that

1807
01:16:31.680 --> 01:16:33.399
was great and I know that budget's not that high.

1808
01:16:33.560 --> 01:16:35.560
No, that one wasn't you know what I mean, Like, because.

1809
01:16:35.399 --> 01:16:38.159
You need story, you need they lucked into a great story.

1810
01:16:38.239 --> 01:16:40.520
They did get a little lucky, but they also pivoted

1811
01:16:40.520 --> 01:16:40.720
in that.

1812
01:16:40.800 --> 01:16:43.159
You know, yeah, they were smart enough to know, Oh no,

1813
01:16:43.239 --> 01:16:43.720
the story is.

1814
01:16:44.079 --> 01:16:47.760
They found it. You need good characters. And Gregory's fucking hilarious,

1815
01:16:48.199 --> 01:16:51.319
you know, and like like a movie. Yeah it's so good. Yeah,

1816
01:16:51.319 --> 01:16:53.720
it felt like it could have been scripted. Right, But

1817
01:16:54.119 --> 01:16:56.199
the same with this, right with Steph going ape shit

1818
01:16:56.239 --> 01:16:58.359
on the last game, it's been quiet the whole turney whatever. Like,

1819
01:16:58.359 --> 01:16:59.840
But that's the beauty of sports, is there is a

1820
01:17:00.359 --> 01:17:02.720
you just have to find it, and for some reason story.

1821
01:17:02.840 --> 01:17:06.000
These motherfuckers won't find it in lifting, you know, like

1822
01:17:06.319 --> 01:17:08.359
it might take a special eye and it might take

1823
01:17:08.439 --> 01:17:11.680
not a good lifter to do it right. You might

1824
01:17:11.720 --> 01:17:15.319
need to interview the person that's not top ten, but

1825
01:17:15.359 --> 01:17:18.920
he's doing some crazy shit, you know that's in there somewhere.

1826
01:17:19.600 --> 01:17:23.560
Also, like being a pro bodybuilder isn't that impressive?

1827
01:17:25.159 --> 01:17:28.000
It's like being a really yeah for sure.

1828
01:17:28.039 --> 01:17:30.880
Compared you're gonna piss people off. But I agree with billion, you.

1829
01:17:30.880 --> 01:17:33.600
Know what I'm saying no, I agree, we do it.

1830
01:17:33.760 --> 01:17:37.680
We could do a fictional like narrative show called Muscley Monk.

1831
01:17:37.640 --> 01:17:41.159
And yeah, yeah yeah they're Monk without the like coolest

1832
01:17:41.199 --> 01:17:42.359
spiritual fucking saying.

1833
01:17:42.439 --> 01:17:44.760
Yes. Yeah. You know who's broke the fourth wall on

1834
01:17:44.840 --> 01:17:46.319
like how hard it is to be a bodybuild or

1835
01:17:46.359 --> 01:17:49.600
is Sam Sullick? Did he just the same ship? Because

1836
01:17:49.640 --> 01:17:52.439
the same ship every day? Right, it's all about discipline

1837
01:17:52.640 --> 01:17:54.800
and and doing X y Z.

1838
01:17:55.000 --> 01:17:57.239
Why do you think I stopped making content? How many

1839
01:17:57.279 --> 01:17:59.039
deadlifts can I talk about? It's just like you do

1840
01:17:59.199 --> 01:18:01.640
the same ship. Yeah, well that's every day. Yeah, and

1841
01:18:01.680 --> 01:18:04.039
basketball too, really, like if you're vlog and all that shit,

1842
01:18:04.079 --> 01:18:04.479
it's boring.

1843
01:18:04.520 --> 01:18:07.720
But there's also like, like there's a lot of genetics

1844
01:18:07.760 --> 01:18:11.359
and environment that is important to basketball in other sports.

1845
01:18:11.399 --> 01:18:14.479
Sure that like there's there's because there's act because there's

1846
01:18:14.520 --> 01:18:17.520
actual athleticism happening. There's no athleticism happening in bodybuilding.

1847
01:18:17.560 --> 01:18:19.880
Well, and the the reps are times a thousand just

1848
01:18:19.880 --> 01:18:22.640
by nature of lifting weights, you can't work out for

1849
01:18:22.680 --> 01:18:25.399
more than two hours. Basketball you can shoot ten thousand

1850
01:18:25.439 --> 01:18:26.359
tuns a day to get better.

1851
01:18:26.479 --> 01:18:28.399
What did Kevin's mom say that she would make him.

1852
01:18:28.439 --> 01:18:29.560
She sit in the car make she said.

1853
01:18:29.840 --> 01:18:31.760
She said, coach would just say make fifty. She said,

1854
01:18:31.840 --> 01:18:34.840
might as well they won fifty. I'll be reading you know,

1855
01:18:34.960 --> 01:18:39.079
you're the real MVP. That's saying yeah, like they created that.

1856
01:18:39.319 --> 01:18:42.079
Yeah he got m VP and he said no, and

1857
01:18:42.119 --> 01:18:44.760
he's he's talking about his mom being the real MVP.

1858
01:18:44.840 --> 01:18:47.159
And then people memed it. But they memed it. I'd

1859
01:18:47.239 --> 01:18:49.640
go crazy. The Katie Pearl shooting. It was so hard

1860
01:18:49.680 --> 01:18:50.560
to get back in the day.

1861
01:18:50.920 --> 01:18:54.520
Dude, did Kevin about that? I had to think that

1862
01:18:54.600 --> 01:18:57.600
some purple pair the same model. He has some cool

1863
01:18:57.640 --> 01:18:59.840
lore man. I was a fan of beginning to Uh,

1864
01:19:00.039 --> 01:19:01.760
he was worried about his image in the NBA, so

1865
01:19:01.800 --> 01:19:04.000
he only got tatted on his jersey line for a

1866
01:19:04.000 --> 01:19:06.279
long time. And now I saw he as a couple,

1867
01:19:06.399 --> 01:19:08.239
you know, because it is a twenty twenty five yeh,

1868
01:19:08.359 --> 01:19:11.720
get a fucking doctor. Doesn't matter anymore.

1869
01:19:11.800 --> 01:19:13.880
People would wear like player shoes though back the early

1870
01:19:13.920 --> 01:19:16.760
teenth mid or mid two thousands, early two thousands. Now

1871
01:19:16.800 --> 01:19:17.399
he was drafted.

1872
01:19:17.479 --> 01:19:19.279
Uh oh seven o eight, he's been around two.

1873
01:19:19.479 --> 01:19:20.840
Yeah, he's a little bit in a roun for a

1874
01:19:20.840 --> 01:19:22.239
fucking minute. Yeah, he's a baller.

1875
01:19:22.319 --> 01:19:22.840
Yeah, all of them.

1876
01:19:22.920 --> 01:19:25.000
It is still going on almost twenty years in the league.

1877
01:19:25.199 --> 01:19:27.960
Yeah, all of them. Yeah, because he because it was

1878
01:19:28.119 --> 01:19:30.359
the gap in between Lebron and him is when they

1879
01:19:30.439 --> 01:19:32.000
changed the rule you can't go to the league from

1880
01:19:32.039 --> 01:19:34.479
high school. Yeah, and so that's why Steph and and

1881
01:19:34.640 --> 01:19:37.800
uh yeah, Mellow is even older. Same draft. But that's

1882
01:19:37.880 --> 01:19:41.520
why Steph and I mean Steph was actually pretty bad

1883
01:19:42.319 --> 01:19:45.640
arguably in college versus what he turned into. He was

1884
01:19:45.680 --> 01:19:49.319
a bit of a surprise. Uh, he was a late bloomer. Yeah,

1885
01:19:49.319 --> 01:19:52.439
he was one hundred and sixty pounds, played at Davidson.

1886
01:19:52.479 --> 01:19:54.039
You know, it's just not the same, Like I grew

1887
01:19:54.079 --> 01:19:55.840
