It is.

So what have you done for me lately?

00:00:06.689 --> 00:00:17.650
Because he comes out, Luka comes out and looks like he's 87 years old, okay, and all of a sudden the Lakers aren't going anywhere, and then he has one good game against.

Brooklyn Nets are like some bad team yeah some awful team and then all of a sudden, oh Luka, oh Luka is doing it.

It is the craziest thing to see.

00:00:30.198 --> 00:00:31.219
No one talks about the bad game.

00:00:31.963 --> 00:00:33.895
The up and down nature of this team.

00:00:33.895 --> 00:00:35.686
The up and down nature of this team.

00:00:35.686 --> 00:00:38.296
With that said, I've got the Lakers in five.

00:00:38.296 --> 00:01:08.278

We got to give Diego the business for his Duke pick.

00:01:42.989 --> 00:01:48.447
He was so, so sure that Duke was going to win it, so we all are going to give him the business.

And then we've got a fire debate to finish the show.

00:02:41.705 --> 00:02:43.586
Who's taking the last shot?

00:02:43.586 --> 00:02:45.707
Who should take the last shot from the Golden State Warriors?

00:02:45.707 --> 00:02:49.546
Is it Steph Curry or is it Hemi Jimmy Butler?

00:02:49.546 --> 00:02:54.508

Looking forward to that.

00:03:03.938 --> 00:03:05.406
Especially after Duke, let me down.

00:03:06.181 --> 00:03:09.070
Yeah, yeah, yeah, we're going to touch on that, don't you worry.

00:03:09.070 --> 00:03:10.939
We're going to touch on how Duke let you down.

00:03:11.020 --> 00:03:12.425
We got the NBA playoffs coming up.

00:03:12.425 --> 00:03:14.632
No, I'm not even worried about that right now.

00:03:14.692 --> 00:03:15.598
We can wait, can't we wait?

00:03:16.099 --> 00:03:17.421
Yeah, we can pause for a little second.

00:03:17.421 --> 00:03:20.125

I'm very excited for the Lakers playoff run.

00:03:30.936 --> 00:03:36.264
There's been a bit of a change in my tune.

00:03:36.264 --> 00:03:41.341
I'm feeling something in the air, so I'm just going to go see.

00:03:41.561 --> 00:03:42.622
Feeling something in the air.

00:03:42.622 --> 00:03:46.247
All right, well, thank you everybody that makes this show go.

00:03:46.247 --> 00:03:47.268
We are growing.

00:03:47.268 --> 00:03:48.508

We really appreciate you all.

00:04:09.294 --> 00:04:15.907
All right, so, diego, before we tear you down, we're going to build you up a little bit.

00:04:15.907 --> 00:04:20.663
Man, so we understand that you were on spring break in Vancouver.

00:04:20.884 --> 00:04:21.766
Yeah, I was.

00:04:21.766 --> 00:04:23.009
How was that man?

00:04:23.009 --> 00:04:24.252
Yeah, it was awesome.

00:04:24.252 --> 00:04:25.394
It was a great city.

00:04:25.394 --> 00:04:27.646
You know a beautiful city.

00:04:27.646 --> 00:04:28.528
It was awesome.

00:04:30.387 --> 00:04:31.742
Sounds good, sounds good.

00:04:31.742 --> 00:04:33.228
Did you catch any sports?

00:04:34.526 --> 00:04:36.584
I caught the Warriors game while I was there.

00:04:36.584 --> 00:04:37.446
Yeah, I got to see that.

00:04:37.446 --> 00:04:45.007
I didn't get to see them play the Clippers, but I did see their playing game, so I was happy I got to see that, got to see that win.

00:04:45.007 --> 00:04:48.773
Also got to see the Mavs Kings.

00:04:49.740 --> 00:04:52.649
Got to see Clay bounce back Mavs are still alive.

00:04:53.240 --> 00:04:54.264
Mavs are still alive.

00:04:54.264 --> 00:04:55.961
Alright, okay, alright.

00:04:55.961 --> 00:04:56.805
Well, you know what?

00:04:56.805 --> 00:04:57.548
Let's not?

00:04:57.548 --> 00:04:58.182
Let's not.

00:04:58.182 --> 00:04:59.326
Yes, international man.

00:04:59.326 --> 00:05:00.966
That's right, baby, international man.

00:05:00.966 --> 00:05:07.423
He is an international travel man traveling with your uh mandarin team there at ravenscroft.

00:05:07.423 --> 00:05:08.204
So that's awesome.

00:05:08.204 --> 00:05:09.889
I'm happy you had a chance to do that.

00:05:09.889 --> 00:05:12.543
Shout out to your mom for uh, for funding that.

00:05:12.543 --> 00:05:15.468
So, uh, big, big props to mom, all right.

00:05:15.468 --> 00:05:20.322
Well, let's uh get into what we wanted to talk about here.

00:05:20.322 --> 00:05:29.526
Let's get into the big diegoacle, All right, let's get to our first slide here with Diego, all right.

00:05:29.526 --> 00:05:40.803
So, man, diego, why don't you just tell us about that game that you were very confident and just went a?

00:05:40.843 --> 00:05:41.687
different way, you okay?

00:05:41.687 --> 00:05:43.665
Yeah, I mean it's been two weeks.

00:05:43.665 --> 00:05:46.925
I mean it's Warriors time, you know, it's championship time, you know.

00:05:47.326 --> 00:05:49.927
Come on, not for Duke, we're not even worried about Duke now.

00:05:51.124 --> 00:05:51.524
No, not for.

00:05:51.545 --> 00:05:52.348
Duke, not for Duke.

00:05:54.303 --> 00:05:56.891
Yeah, well, that was an interesting game, you know.

00:05:56.891 --> 00:06:00.141
It went from being up a lot I thought we had it.

00:06:00.141 --> 00:06:09.726
I was leaned back, ready to celebrate and then I went leaning against my chair because it was closer, then just went tumbling on the ground.

00:06:09.726 --> 00:06:12.627
So I was in disbelief, it was crazy.

00:06:12.951 --> 00:06:21.928
It was very reminiscent of the Big 3 Miami Heat when they lost the first season against the Dallas Mavericks.

00:06:21.928 --> 00:06:23.163
And then Chris Bosh.

00:06:23.163 --> 00:06:27.345
As soon as he got back almost to the locker room, he just collapsed and fell out.

00:06:27.345 --> 00:06:29.125
It was very similar to that y'all.

00:06:29.125 --> 00:06:31.112
So I know we went easy on you at first.

00:06:31.112 --> 00:06:34.910
We didn't really post anything on social media, we let you gather yourself.

00:06:34.910 --> 00:06:37.071
So I honestly felt bad for you.

00:06:37.071 --> 00:06:42.247
But now that it's been a little bit of time, we got to get a few licks in on you, man, a few licks in on you, man.

00:06:42.266 --> 00:06:43.451
I'm just imagining that whole.

00:06:43.451 --> 00:06:47.649
You know the video where Russ throws the interception to Malcolm Butler.

00:06:47.649 --> 00:06:49.305
You see Richard Sherman's face.

00:06:49.305 --> 00:06:52.744
Yes, I'm just imagining that's the end yes, that was it.

00:06:52.783 --> 00:06:53.305
That was it.

00:06:53.305 --> 00:06:55.285
Oh, no, that was definitely it.

00:06:56.500 --> 00:06:57.887
Everything's just collapsed, dude.

00:06:58.079 --> 00:06:59.466
Yeah, you know it is what it is.

00:06:59.466 --> 00:07:04.303
That was definitely it and, like a typical father okay, I did tell you.

00:07:04.303 --> 00:07:09.653
So I told you that my Houston Cougars I told you they were going to get up in your chest Did they win it all.

00:07:09.940 --> 00:07:11.166
You said they were going to win it all.

00:07:11.680 --> 00:07:15.290
They were going to roll those shorts up and they were going to get into you.

00:07:15.290 --> 00:07:19.168
Emmanuel Sharp, I told you it was a bad matchup for Duke.

00:07:19.168 --> 00:07:28.487
You got let off the hook last year when she got hurt, but now this year you had nowhere to run, nowhere to hide my Houston Cougars.

00:07:28.487 --> 00:07:30.589
They had to put it on you.

00:07:30.589 --> 00:07:32.250
It hurt me so much to do that?

00:07:32.250 --> 00:07:33.591
I don't think it did it hurt me so much.

00:07:33.992 --> 00:07:35.994
It really really did Okay.

00:07:36.355 --> 00:07:38.937
But, like I said, I told y'all who was going to win.

00:07:38.937 --> 00:07:47.848
Okay, I told everybody UConn was going to win the women's championship.

00:07:47.869 --> 00:07:49.778
I told everybody Florida was going to win the championship, didn't I guys?

00:07:49.778 --> 00:07:51.547
No, what did the bracket say?

00:07:51.547 --> 00:07:51.666
No?

00:07:53.928 --> 00:07:56.120
The bracket said Houston and South Carolina.

00:07:56.180 --> 00:07:58.327
I had a feeling you guys would disagree with me.

00:07:58.327 --> 00:08:00.660
I had a feeling you guys would disagree.

00:08:01.401 --> 00:08:02.987
What about your final picks though?

00:08:03.026 --> 00:08:03.548
That's okay.

00:08:03.548 --> 00:08:04.598
Let's go back to the show a couple weeks ago.

00:08:04.598 --> 00:08:04.762
No, no, that's okay.

00:08:04.762 --> 00:08:05.161
What about your final picks, though?

00:08:05.161 --> 00:08:05.954
No, no, no, that's okay, let's go back to the show.

00:08:05.975 --> 00:08:07.175
Let's go back to the show.

00:08:07.175 --> 00:08:08.762
A couple weeks ago, y'all.

00:08:09.064 --> 00:08:11.906
A couple weeks ago, here we go Put money on it.

00:08:12.940 --> 00:08:14.026
I've got to say UConn.

00:08:14.026 --> 00:08:18.684
I believe that at this point I think smart money is on UConn.

00:08:18.684 --> 00:08:22.362
Y'all know I love, I love Houston.

00:08:22.362 --> 00:08:23.805
That was your sleeper team.

00:08:23.805 --> 00:08:25.326
I love Houston.

00:08:25.326 --> 00:08:29.091
When they get into tough possessions they just are not able to score.

00:08:29.091 --> 00:08:32.895
They just, overall, as a team, don't have enough offense to pull it off.

00:08:32.895 --> 00:08:40.519
So again, smart money I feel is on Florida this year.

00:08:40.580 --> 00:08:45.226
See, that was in like January, that's an earlier clip.

00:08:45.287 --> 00:08:46.128
That's not live.

00:08:46.128 --> 00:08:47.429
You want me to pull up your bracket?

00:08:47.429 --> 00:08:52.284
You literally switched the tape doesn't lie the ball don't

00:08:52.346 --> 00:08:52.687
lie.

00:08:52.726 --> 00:08:53.067
Hold on.

00:08:53.067 --> 00:08:54.373
Hold on.

00:08:54.600 --> 00:08:57.832
No, no, no, the tape don't lie, the ball don't lie.

00:08:57.832 --> 00:08:59.621
I remember that was you said.

00:08:59.863 --> 00:09:04.210
Houston will win the men's national championship, and they didn't.

00:09:04.210 --> 00:09:06.467
And you said South Carolina was going to win and they didn't.

00:09:06.659 --> 00:09:09.490
I said again go back and look at the episode.

00:09:09.490 --> 00:09:13.309
I said my heart is with Houston.

00:09:13.309 --> 00:09:17.730
Okay, but smart money, my head is with Florida.

00:09:18.221 --> 00:09:18.964
For the women.

00:09:19.043 --> 00:09:26.152
I said my heart is with South Carolina, but if you're putting money on it, the team that's going to win it is UConn.

00:09:26.152 --> 00:09:35.191
I told y'all that I can't help it, that I'm so brilliant with this, I cannot help it.

00:09:35.191 --> 00:09:35.812
I can't help it.

00:09:41.706 --> 00:09:43.663
We'll give you this because we know you're not getting any more picks.

00:09:43.683 --> 00:09:44.004
You can have it.

00:09:44.004 --> 00:09:44.326
You can have it.

00:09:44.326 --> 00:09:44.908
I'll have a video of this.

00:09:44.908 --> 00:09:46.653
We'll give you this because we know you're not getting any more picks right.

00:09:46.653 --> 00:09:47.255
That's fine, you can have it.

00:09:47.255 --> 00:09:47.577
You can have it.

00:09:47.577 --> 00:09:48.240
We'll let you get that one.

00:09:50.466 --> 00:09:51.749
I'm so happy I came prepared.

00:09:51.749 --> 00:09:52.792
I'll let you get that one.

00:09:52.792 --> 00:09:57.261
So one more thing before we go to the NBA Diego, all right.

00:09:57.261 --> 00:09:58.225
So Cooper Flagg.

00:09:58.225 --> 00:10:06.067
So a lot of other people have declared from Duke, okay, but Cooper Flagg, as far as I know less, something's broken in the last hour.

00:10:06.067 --> 00:10:08.669
Cooper flag is still not officially declared.

00:10:08.669 --> 00:10:10.390
I don't think Should he.

00:10:10.390 --> 00:10:16.517
Should he come back and try to actually become a top five player of all time?

00:10:16.517 --> 00:10:18.586
Or is he already a top five player?

00:10:18.586 --> 00:10:20.905
Why don't you address both, both of those fours at Duke.

00:10:21.441 --> 00:10:25.311
As far as, like Duke top five players, players of all time, I'd say he's not there yet.

00:10:25.311 --> 00:10:31.020
That collapse kind of took him out of the conversation okay, but uh, I think he should come back.

00:10:31.020 --> 00:10:35.350
I think he should come back and uh set like a new trend for duke players.

00:10:35.350 --> 00:10:51.134
Uh, just staying one more year trying to get the job done, get this banner number six, so unc fans can stop, can stop giving us, giving us all this shade, because they're talking about 2015 was like 100 years before 2017 when they won.

00:10:51.134 --> 00:10:54.924
I'm just tired of that and I want to get a fresh, shiny new banner.

00:10:56.280 --> 00:10:59.639
Your favorite rapper literally became famous and is a global superstar.

00:10:59.639 --> 00:11:05.820
In the time since, duke has won a championship, to be very fair, it's like three presidential terms ago.

00:11:05.820 --> 00:11:06.941
It hasn has won a championship, to be very fair, and also it's like three presidential terms ago.

00:11:07.380 --> 00:11:08.505
So it has been a minute.

00:11:08.505 --> 00:11:17.745
Unc won just two years after People acting like 10 years ago was 100 years ago, and UNC won just like eight years ago.

00:11:17.745 --> 00:11:27.186
They did retire, coach K, so I'm just we also beat them three times this year and they lost in the first round.

00:11:27.186 --> 00:11:30.181
Good points Anyway.

00:11:30.181 --> 00:11:35.586
Cooper Flagg, you said he's going to take a month to decide if he wants to come back.

00:11:35.586 --> 00:11:39.090
So we'll see what he comes back with in probably about two weeks now.

00:11:39.759 --> 00:11:40.966
So great take.

00:11:40.966 --> 00:11:43.466
What do you think, Chris, Should Cooper Flagg come back?

00:11:45.322 --> 00:11:52.701
On the one hand, yes, because again you want to return a program to prominence and kind of like, prove, cement yourself.

00:11:52.701 --> 00:12:01.999
But on the other hand, it's like that NBA buddy, that that first round pick, that first overall pick, all every team's like clamoring and like wanting to take for you at this point.

00:12:01.999 --> 00:12:05.006
And you know, I mean, let's see.

00:12:05.006 --> 00:12:12.404
Hopefully, if he does go to the NBA, I need him to go to the Eastern Conference because, as we're about to shortly see, way too much talent in the West.

00:12:12.404 --> 00:12:13.047
It's crazy.

00:12:13.248 --> 00:12:14.130
Charlotte will take him.

00:12:14.220 --> 00:12:15.865
Yeah, please, please, charlotte.

00:12:15.865 --> 00:12:26.394
If he declares, yeah, I feel you know, with the, with NIL in place, I think it's a real decision now, before, there wouldn't even be anything to think about.

00:12:26.394 --> 00:12:27.174
He would need to go pro.

00:12:27.174 --> 00:12:35.645
But my goodness, he could make $10 million, maybe more, and then you've got other endorsements and whatnot.

00:12:35.645 --> 00:12:40.871
So as far as money goes, it may be equal.

00:12:40.871 --> 00:12:43.154
And again he reclassed up.

00:12:45.159 --> 00:12:48.046
So he is a young man, he'd still actually be like, you know, right, right.

00:12:48.046 --> 00:13:02.004
So you know, a lot of times you know you want to start the clock on that NBA money and whatnot, but I honestly feel that for all that it would do for his Duke legacy and the money that he can make, I actually think he should come back.

00:13:02.004 --> 00:13:03.527
Yes, definitely, I really do.

00:13:03.527 --> 00:13:17.128
And also, when I look from a generational standpoint, when I look at the players that were surefire first picks and were not going to drop if they stayed a year, I don't think any of them regretted coming back.

00:13:17.288 --> 00:13:18.291
You look at Peyton Manning.

00:13:18.291 --> 00:13:19.785
Peyton Manning could have left.

00:13:19.785 --> 00:13:23.250
He really, really wanted to play another year and played.

00:13:23.250 --> 00:13:25.206
It still went number one.

00:13:25.206 --> 00:13:29.910
I'm sure if you asked him today, if he were to, you know, do it again, would he do the same thing?

00:13:29.910 --> 00:13:30.272
He would.

00:13:30.272 --> 00:13:33.188
Tim Duncan was the same same situation.

00:13:33.188 --> 00:13:34.785
Tim Duncan could have gone first.

00:13:34.785 --> 00:13:35.708
He came back.

00:13:35.708 --> 00:13:37.379
He just really wanted that experience.

00:13:37.379 --> 00:13:42.759
So all that it would do for his Duke legacy, I think that would be really cool.

00:13:42.759 --> 00:13:47.292
Yeah, so I would love to see and, like you said, it would start a trend.

00:13:47.292 --> 00:13:48.080
It really would start a trend.

00:13:48.926 --> 00:13:51.746
I think Zion would have benefited from another year for sure.

00:13:52.240 --> 00:13:55.519
Yes, Zion, that's not really a question, but I mean he's putting it out there.

00:13:55.681 --> 00:13:56.865
He definitely needed another year.

00:13:57.519 --> 00:13:58.745
Yeah, yeah, all right.

00:13:58.745 --> 00:14:01.647
Well, no great great discussion there, all right, diego?

00:14:01.647 --> 00:14:15.192
Well, thanks for being a good sport man, and now we are going to finally, for your sake, move on to the NBA and get into our first set of picks here.

00:14:15.192 --> 00:14:16.559
Now, before we do that, we want to promote our next show at Kings.

00:14:16.559 --> 00:14:18.486
We are almost sold out.

00:14:18.486 --> 00:14:21.629
We literally have five seats left.

00:14:21.629 --> 00:14:22.351
Five seats left.

00:14:22.351 --> 00:14:31.557
So if you are planning on coming, have not gotten your ticket yet, you need to get it within literally the next day or so, because we are about to announce that this thing is sold out.

00:14:31.679 --> 00:14:33.567
April 26th we have a fire lineup.

00:14:33.567 --> 00:14:36.667
It is going to be a great, great, great show.

00:14:36.667 --> 00:14:37.428
Cannot wait.

00:14:37.428 --> 00:14:40.447
Tons of guests, we'll talk about that a little more later.

00:14:40.447 --> 00:14:46.721
So, saturday next week at King, 7 pm Eastern, it's going to be live All more later.

00:14:46.721 --> 00:14:48.344
So saturday next week at king, 7 pm eastern, it's gonna be live, all right.

00:14:48.344 --> 00:14:50.509
Well, let's get into it, man, first round, we've got, let's start with the east.

00:14:50.509 --> 00:14:53.355
Okay, we've got the detroit pistons.

00:14:53.355 --> 00:14:57.028
Pistons are back, bad boy pistons, and they are bad boys again.

00:14:57.028 --> 00:14:59.653
All right, playing the favorite nicks.

00:14:59.653 --> 00:15:02.865
Diego, what's your take on this series, man?

00:15:02.884 --> 00:15:04.827
man, I got the Knicks in six.

00:15:04.827 --> 00:15:09.695
I'm going to go with that, okay, actually, no Knicks in five, knicks in five, knicks in five.

00:15:09.956 --> 00:15:11.418
The Pistons they're….

00:15:11.437 --> 00:15:13.677
You want to go four, I'm going to stick with five.

00:15:13.677 --> 00:15:15.647
Okay, pistons, they're a nice team.

00:15:15.647 --> 00:15:16.904
They got Cade Cunningham.

00:15:16.904 --> 00:15:27.594
He's making a good player, but they just don't really have after him.

00:15:27.594 --> 00:15:40.068
They just don't really have any other guys that can just get buckets whenever, like I mean, they have Isaiah Stewart who's like the just kind of aggressor you know, plays good defense, sort of Draymond-ish for their team.

00:15:40.068 --> 00:15:42.628
They got Malik Beasley who can hit threes.

00:15:42.628 --> 00:15:53.379
They got a few other young pieces, but just not another like star that can get him there, while the Knicks they have Brunson Cat, you know, mikael Bridges, a bunch of other pieces.

00:15:53.379 --> 00:15:57.720
So yeah, I think the Knicks got it, the Knicks, knicks in five, alright.

00:15:58.482 --> 00:16:00.380
I have the Knicks in six and it's going to be very.

00:16:00.380 --> 00:16:01.384
I think it's going to be very.

00:16:01.384 --> 00:16:16.044
I think it's going to be more contested than people think because again, with Tim's again running players to the ground or the, you also have to factor in the fact that like to me at least this whole season, you with the next, and like why they're the three CDs?

00:16:16.044 --> 00:16:22.767
Because they've continuously like played down to their competition and even when they like face like championship contending teams, they've gotten washed.

00:16:22.767 --> 00:16:26.394
So I feel like, if you'll be like they are a very good team.

00:16:26.500 --> 00:16:28.928
Jalen Brunson has that playoff experience of being a dog.

00:16:28.928 --> 00:16:38.825
Carl Anthony Towns has moments where he like shows up and then he might, will, and then also you're depending on newer commodities like McHale and OG.

00:16:38.825 --> 00:16:41.806
I feel like Josh Hart's going to show up and bring that intensity either way.

00:16:41.806 --> 00:16:49.408
But then with the piston side of it, I mean you're playing with house money at this point.

00:16:49.408 --> 00:16:50.392
That's always the most dangerous thing in sports.

00:16:50.392 --> 00:16:51.195
When you literally have nothing to lose.

00:16:51.195 --> 00:16:55.432
You just being there is the moment I feel like if you're a hungry team, you're gonna want to like definitely push it now.

00:16:55.432 --> 00:17:03.188
Again, I do think the knicks over high of the larger talent, so that's gonna win out of the series, but I wouldn't count the pistons making this a very interesting series.

00:17:04.351 --> 00:17:07.215
Yeah, yeah, I think they're going to rough it up, make it physical.

00:17:07.215 --> 00:17:14.631
The Knicks aren't as physical as they were before, so I think a lot of the games are going to go down to the wire.

00:17:14.631 --> 00:17:18.190
That Madison Square Garden crowd, though, is amazing.

00:17:18.190 --> 00:17:22.311
The Knicks will definitely rise to the occasion with that intensity.

00:17:22.311 --> 00:17:41.586
I have the Knicks in five, but I feel that a lot of these games are going to go down to the last few minutes, I think it's going to be a very entertaining series, a fun series, I hope Detroit reps for the city it's just great when they're in it Shout out to all the Detroit family as well.

00:17:41.606 --> 00:17:43.606
We got the Knicks on this one.

00:17:43.606 --> 00:17:47.345
Let's move on to the next series.

00:17:47.345 --> 00:17:55.711
I think we're going to make a quick work of this because we don't want to get into financial trouble like ESPN did, because this is going to be a snooze fest.

00:17:55.711 --> 00:18:05.815
You know Indiana Pacers and the Milwaukee Bucks man, this is an NBA TV special so I think this is going to be on NBA TV.

00:18:06.321 --> 00:18:09.036
It was actually on ESPNU, which is crazy, right?

00:18:09.036 --> 00:18:12.357
That's diabolical streaming.

00:18:12.357 --> 00:18:15.028
Only they put the Super Bowl on Tubi.

00:18:15.028 --> 00:18:17.211
Let's be fair to Tubi now.

00:18:17.211 --> 00:18:19.090
We can't use Tubi like that.

00:18:19.090 --> 00:18:20.000
That visual is on fire.

00:18:20.000 --> 00:18:23.077
We can't even put it on Tubi, we gotta put that on Crackle or something like that.

00:18:23.077 --> 00:18:23.641
That is ridiculous.

00:18:23.641 --> 00:18:24.442
So, diego, who do you have in this one?

00:18:24.442 --> 00:18:25.282
I, we can't even put it on.

00:18:25.303 --> 00:18:26.805
We got to put that on crackle or something, something like that.

00:18:26.805 --> 00:18:27.405
That is ridiculous, all right.

00:18:27.405 --> 00:18:28.227
So, diego, who do you have in this one?

00:18:28.446 --> 00:18:30.450
man, I got the Milwaukee Bucks in seven.

00:18:30.450 --> 00:18:34.214
The only reason I have it going this far is because of Dame and his injury.

00:18:34.214 --> 00:18:41.422
He's out for the first game but he should be coming back a little later in the series.

00:18:41.422 --> 00:18:44.664
But I do think Giannis will be able to win them if he will be able to carry them for at least a game or two.

00:18:44.664 --> 00:18:49.470
And when Dame comes back, they're just going to take care of the Pacers, so yeah.

00:18:49.529 --> 00:18:52.192
Okay, I have the Bucks at six.

00:18:52.192 --> 00:19:03.644
Yeah, it's going to be a tough watch, it's going to be a little bit boring, but I just want to see Giannis, you know, do his thing and kind of like return to that form again.

00:19:03.644 --> 00:19:12.708
Like you see, the numbers he's putting up and the fact that he hasn't been put in like mvp conversations, it's kind of crazy and I feel like it's more so like well, it's the east and you're like not dominating in the east like you typically were.

00:19:12.708 --> 00:19:15.702
So I feel like that's why the bias is there.

00:19:15.702 --> 00:19:22.445
But again, goddess is still top two player in the world to me personally, so I definitely want him to show out.

00:19:22.766 --> 00:19:23.909
Yeah okay, all, all right.

00:19:23.909 --> 00:19:25.772
Well, I'm going to surprise you guys.

00:19:25.772 --> 00:19:27.286
I've got the Pacers.

00:19:27.286 --> 00:19:30.971
I've got the Pacers in six with this series.

00:19:30.971 --> 00:19:33.509
I feel that Milwaukee's been struggling.

00:19:33.509 --> 00:19:37.530
They've only won one playoff series in the last few years.

00:19:37.530 --> 00:19:40.147
Dane is out, at least game one.

00:19:40.147 --> 00:19:45.269
When he comes back, he's certainly going to be rusty, so because of that, pacers will be fired up.

00:19:45.269 --> 00:19:46.766
Of course they feel disrespected.

00:19:46.766 --> 00:19:52.884
So they're going to come out and Tyrese Hallenburton will be doing his thing, unless it's really crunch time.

00:19:52.884 --> 00:19:55.771
Then he'll start passing the ball more than Magic Johnson.

00:19:55.771 --> 00:20:04.294
But yeah, I've got the Pacers to win this one in six, just because Milwaukee is not going to be at full strength in my estimation.

00:20:04.920 --> 00:20:09.049
All right, okay, okay, well, let's get off on that one before people tune, tune away.

00:20:09.049 --> 00:20:12.546
Okay, let's keep the ratings going here, let's move on.

00:20:12.546 --> 00:20:19.883
So, oh man, the boston celtics number two, seeded boston celtics, which sounds so strange to say.

00:20:19.883 --> 00:20:24.230
Right, yeah, uh, take, try to take on the Orlando Magic.

00:20:24.230 --> 00:20:30.509
So the Magic won their playing game, took care of business, blew their opponent out and here we are.

00:20:30.509 --> 00:20:31.891
So, diego, who do you got in this one?

00:20:32.420 --> 00:20:34.367
I got the Boston Celtics in five.

00:20:34.367 --> 00:20:43.705
I think Orlando gets a game at home with Paulo, but other than that I think the Celtics just take care of them and then go on to the next series.

00:20:44.086 --> 00:20:49.950
Okay, all right, it's Boston at this point.

00:20:49.950 --> 00:20:51.489
The playoff experience itself.

00:20:51.489 --> 00:21:00.260
It would be a crazy upset, but I don't see no any way that Boston does at least get in the conference finals for sure, for sure.

00:21:00.280 --> 00:21:01.950
Yeah, boston is certainly a juggernaut.

00:21:01.950 --> 00:21:07.871
They are the defending champs and the team that feels disrespected, you did yeah, you picked them to win last year.

00:21:07.891 --> 00:21:08.810
They did come through for you.

00:21:08.810 --> 00:21:10.071
Picked them to win last year.

00:21:10.071 --> 00:21:12.894
They did come through for you, so you got that one correct.

00:21:12.894 --> 00:21:18.936
I also, like you two gentlemen, I have the Boston Celtics as well, although I have them winning in six.

00:21:18.936 --> 00:21:21.578
So I think this series is going to go a little longer.

00:21:21.578 --> 00:21:24.500
I think it's going to take them a little while to get going.

00:21:24.500 --> 00:21:34.807
The Magic are going to play well, and also the fact that Jalen Brown Jalen Brown is dealing with an injury, so that may.

00:21:34.846 --> 00:21:37.387
I think the Celtics are going to be a little slow getting out the gate.

00:21:37.387 --> 00:21:45.960
I think they'll gain momentum as they get into the second third round, but I think this is going to be a little more competitive than most people think in my estimation.

00:21:45.960 --> 00:21:47.958
So I've got the Celtics winning this in six.

00:21:47.958 --> 00:21:48.721
All right, okay, all in my estimation.

00:21:48.721 --> 00:21:49.865
So I've got the Celtics winning this in six.

00:21:49.865 --> 00:21:50.808
All right, okay, all right.

00:21:50.808 --> 00:21:52.698
Well, let's move on to the next one.

00:21:52.698 --> 00:21:55.678
Okay, we've got the Cleveland Cavaliers.

00:21:55.678 --> 00:22:05.875
Man, the number one seated calves, could have probably won 70, but it looks like they took their foot off the gas and kind of cruised as they got to the end, cause they built such a big lead.

00:22:05.875 --> 00:22:14.817
They're going to play the uh winner of uh, the hawks versus the heat, who always seem to be in the play-in.

00:22:14.817 --> 00:22:15.942
Yep, I'll be interested to see who wins that.

00:22:15.942 --> 00:22:22.520
So, diego, who's gonna win the showdown tonight between the heat and the hawks, and then who's gonna win the series overall?

00:22:22.781 --> 00:22:24.492
unless it's a blowout right now.

00:22:24.492 --> 00:22:30.223
Um, I got the heat winning because they they, because they just always seem to bring it into play.

00:22:30.223 --> 00:22:36.712
Yeah, they got Tyler Hero scored 38 points in the last game against the Bulls, and then the Hawks.

00:22:36.712 --> 00:22:38.498
They seem to be losing their composure a little bit.

00:22:38.498 --> 00:22:39.441
Trey got ejected.

00:22:39.441 --> 00:22:41.738
It just don't seem the same.

00:22:41.738 --> 00:22:45.234
So I got them playing the Cavs and then that series.

00:22:45.234 --> 00:22:46.700
I got the Cavs winning a five.

00:22:46.700 --> 00:22:48.835
Okay, Cavs winning a five All right Easy series.

00:22:48.835 --> 00:22:50.501
Okay, cavs winning a five All right Easy series.

00:22:50.742 --> 00:22:54.096
Okay, same, I have the Heat winning the Cavs a five.

00:22:54.096 --> 00:23:00.060
Because that Trey Young at that game I've never seen him like that, like frustrated with his team.

00:23:01.172 --> 00:23:01.292
And.

00:23:01.534 --> 00:23:02.597
I don't know if he's out of there.

00:23:02.597 --> 00:23:08.234
So I'm like, hey, if you want to trade that dude to San Antonio, pair with Webby, I wouldn't be too bad at it.

00:23:08.234 --> 00:23:13.537
But I'm just, yeah, I think Trey's, he's mentally checked out at this point.

00:23:13.537 --> 00:23:14.794
I don't know what's happening.

00:23:14.794 --> 00:23:19.837
I just yeah, okay, yeah, but either way, cavs are fine.

00:23:19.837 --> 00:23:21.415
It's going to be a quick series.

00:23:21.415 --> 00:23:32.364
It will be interesting to see what the Cavs do in the next round and like getting deeper in the playoffs, because again we have seen Donovan Mitchell show up and dominate in the first round and then it comes second round.

00:23:32.364 --> 00:23:37.580
He's doing a lot of the heavy lifting and his team doesn't necessarily about, so we'll see.

00:23:37.580 --> 00:23:38.883
Okay, all right.

00:23:39.432 --> 00:23:40.155
We will see.

00:23:40.155 --> 00:23:43.515
Well, for this one again, for the heat Hawks.

00:23:43.515 --> 00:23:46.074
I actually have the Hawks with this one.

00:23:46.074 --> 00:23:51.324
I think the Hawks are the home team in this game, so I'm going to give them the edge.

00:23:51.324 --> 00:23:55.101
It's Friday night in Atlanta, hot Atlanta, okay.

00:23:55.101 --> 00:24:00.281
And so I think you know Trey is going to have one last memorable performance.

00:24:00.281 --> 00:24:07.181
He is one of the all-time great play-in players, so he's going to have it there.

00:24:07.181 --> 00:24:18.792
And yeah, I think Atlanta is going to be jumping tonight and they get it, but then they go and get swept by the cast.

00:24:18.813 --> 00:24:19.555
So that's what I'm gonna predict here.

00:24:19.555 --> 00:24:23.242
I saw a stat from miami they've beaten the chicago bulls in the play in three straight years.

00:24:23.242 --> 00:24:24.231
Wow, wow, yes, that's crazy.

00:24:24.231 --> 00:24:26.017
Yeah that that is the annual play-in matchup, for whatever reason, my goodness.

00:24:26.037 --> 00:24:27.681
Yeah, both of those teams are just stuck in mediocrity right now.

00:24:27.681 --> 00:24:28.362
So yeah, that's crazy.

00:24:28.382 --> 00:24:34.299
That is the annual play-in matchup for whatever reason, my goodness, both of those teams are just stuck in mediocrity right now.

00:24:34.299 --> 00:24:35.913
So, yeah, something there.

00:24:35.913 --> 00:24:37.720
Okay, all right.

00:24:37.720 --> 00:24:41.681
Well, let's move on to the next topic.

00:24:41.681 --> 00:24:42.021
Here.

00:24:42.021 --> 00:24:46.342
We are going to bring in the one and only Brianna.

00:24:46.342 --> 00:24:50.696
Let's bring Brianna in to join us, our athlete correspondent.

00:24:50.696 --> 00:24:51.378
What's going on?

00:24:51.378 --> 00:24:59.571
Hi, how are you?

00:24:59.571 --> 00:25:00.315
Hey, hey, great, how about you?

00:25:00.315 --> 00:25:00.696
Pretty good, okay.

00:25:00.696 --> 00:25:02.986
Well, we again want to touch base with you on all that you've been doing with Pick'em Pros.

00:25:02.986 --> 00:25:04.250
So, our new athlete correspondent here.

00:25:04.250 --> 00:25:11.338
You've been talking to a lot of big time athletes, and why don't you tell us about the basketball player that you interviewed recently?

00:25:11.338 --> 00:25:12.474
We're going to play a clip from that.

00:25:13.170 --> 00:25:14.516
Yeah, I interviewed Brandon Wood.

00:25:14.516 --> 00:25:16.217
He currently plays overseas right now.

00:25:16.217 --> 00:25:18.635
He's really just a nice guy.

00:25:18.635 --> 00:25:22.977
He's very inspirational and the video the interview is really good.

00:25:23.739 --> 00:25:24.681
Good, all right.

00:25:24.681 --> 00:25:25.363
Well, I'll tell you what.

00:25:25.363 --> 00:25:27.530
We have a minute clip from that.

00:25:27.530 --> 00:25:32.853
We're going to go ahead and play that along with the social media reel, and then, uh, we'll be right back.

00:25:32.853 --> 00:25:37.596
Okay, I'm putting money on it.

00:25:37.596 --> 00:25:39.737
Wrong one, here we go.

00:25:41.336 --> 00:25:49.060
Yeah, I pick them like a pro global trot ball.

00:25:49.060 --> 00:25:49.980
Talk a pick and roll.

00:25:49.980 --> 00:25:52.162
We're going up to score touchdown.

00:25:52.162 --> 00:25:53.923
This is not a field goal.

00:25:53.923 --> 00:25:55.503
We the winning team champions.

00:25:55.503 --> 00:26:00.165
When you walk through the hall, you can play your bet with us, Cause you know we're going to win them all.

00:26:00.165 --> 00:26:02.606
I pick them like a pro global trot ball.

00:26:02.606 --> 00:26:03.448
Talk a pick and roll.

00:26:03.448 --> 00:26:05.648
We're going up to score touchdown.

00:26:07.433 --> 00:26:08.037
This is not not field goal.

00:26:08.037 --> 00:26:09.042
We, the winning team champions.

00:26:09.042 --> 00:26:13.564
When you walk through the hall, you can play your best with us because you know we're going one of them all.

00:26:13.564 --> 00:26:22.659
Yeah, the most memorable moment you had while you played in college, but that year, first game of the college basketball season november 11, 2011.

00:26:22.838 --> 00:26:24.061
11, 11, 11.

00:26:24.061 --> 00:26:32.434
We played in san diego on an aircraft carrier against north carolina for my second time, magic Johnson our honorary captain.

00:26:32.434 --> 00:26:44.635
James Worthy, their honorary captain, president Barack Obama and Michelle Obama sitting on the sideline getting to meet them before the game and just playing on a game on top of an aircraft carrier you know that was.

00:26:44.635 --> 00:26:49.391
I mean it's kind of referred to as like the greatest venue college basketball game ever.

00:26:55.594 --> 00:26:57.615
All right, that was yes.

00:26:57.615 --> 00:27:11.961
So you can see that on YouTube, see that on our channel, go to the my Sports Journey channel and or playlist, I should say, and you can see that full interviews that's about a 40 minute interview is a whole lot of great info that he shared with us.

00:27:11.961 --> 00:27:14.303
So what else do you have coming up, brie?

00:27:15.123 --> 00:27:18.765
Yeah, so I had the opportunity as well to interview Will Hernandez.

00:27:18.765 --> 00:27:20.384
He plays for the Cardinals.

00:27:20.384 --> 00:27:22.326
That was a good interview.

00:27:22.326 --> 00:27:24.146
And I also interviewed Luke Little.

00:27:24.146 --> 00:27:26.988
He plays for the Cubs Also a good interview coming out soon.

00:27:30.190 --> 00:27:31.213
All right, yeah, we'll be dropping those.

00:27:31.213 --> 00:27:36.711
I believe luke little is next thing he's dropping tuesday, if I'm not mistaken, and then the following tuesday we'll go ahead and drop.

00:27:36.711 --> 00:27:39.018
That will hernandez uh video.

00:27:39.018 --> 00:27:41.083
So, yeah, yeah, looking forward to that.

00:27:41.083 --> 00:27:52.709
Good, well, uh, we know again, you are in arizona, in the phoenix area, so we cannot let you go without talking about your guy, kevin Durant.

00:27:52.709 --> 00:28:00.442
Okay, now we know Booker Booker's your guy, guy, right, but KD is there right now and looks like he's going to be on the move.

00:28:00.442 --> 00:28:04.522
So where do you think KD will or should end up?

00:28:05.506 --> 00:28:11.133
Yeah, well, in the first place, he should have never went to Phoenix, in my opinion, because they got rid of all of our younger players.

00:28:11.133 --> 00:28:13.494
That actually made our team good, which was annoying.

00:28:13.494 --> 00:28:15.655
But I don't know.

00:28:15.655 --> 00:28:27.263
I mean, a lot of people are saying Golden State again or OKC again or the Knicks even, because he was supposed to go to the Knicks in 2019, and then he never did, and then he never did.

00:28:27.263 --> 00:28:27.923
So I don't know.

00:28:27.923 --> 00:28:37.221
I feel like that would be cool to see him at Knicks, and Mikael Bridges is also there, who I also love, so I feel like that would be a cool duo to see, because they're both really tall players too.

00:28:37.221 --> 00:28:39.758
So I feel like they could do some damage.

00:28:39.758 --> 00:28:40.220
I don't know.

00:28:41.471 --> 00:28:41.972
I like that.

00:28:41.972 --> 00:28:48.383
Bree, yeah, seeing him there Now that would really be something for the Brooklyn back.

00:28:48.383 --> 00:28:56.097
But we all thought he was going to go to the Knicks and really surprised a lot of people by going to Brooklyn, so that would be very interesting.

00:28:56.097 --> 00:28:58.038
And then, yeah, teaming up with this old teammate.

00:28:58.038 --> 00:29:00.096
So I like that take.

00:29:00.096 --> 00:29:03.156
That would be very entertaining to see that happen.

00:29:03.156 --> 00:29:03.999
What do you think, diego?

00:29:04.460 --> 00:29:05.863
Oh yeah, I agree, I like the Knicks.

00:29:05.863 --> 00:29:13.517
I don't think OKC would be the move, because they've got so many younger guys and so many draft picks.

00:29:13.517 --> 00:29:14.060
They have a bright future.

00:29:14.060 --> 00:29:16.054
I just think Kevin Durant would mess it up.

00:29:19.253 --> 00:29:19.855
He messed up the.

00:29:19.895 --> 00:29:32.576
Suns yeah, he messed up the Suns, brooklyn, a few other teams, and I think the Heat need to rebuild too, because they already traded Jimmy and they got Bam, they got Tyler Hero, so I think they should just keep going in younger directions.

00:29:32.576 --> 00:29:34.656
The Knicks they're just ready to win now.

00:29:34.656 --> 00:29:40.694
I think they just need maybe one more star to put them ahead of the Celtics and Cavs.

00:29:40.694 --> 00:29:41.900
That would be the move.

00:29:43.051 --> 00:29:47.118
My whole thing with the Knicks fit and why I do think that would be cool.

00:29:47.118 --> 00:29:53.500
And again, him being the basketball purist, him loving the game and him playing at Madison Square Garden would be cool.

00:29:53.500 --> 00:30:03.838
It's the fact that it's like who do you trade, who do you give up Because you're going to have to get rid of OG or Cat to make sure that they get the ball.

00:30:03.838 --> 00:30:14.737
So I would be, because I was also thinking like a younger team, like Houston, that would also be pretty good, but with all the young players, him kind of leading the charge there, that would also be good.

00:30:14.737 --> 00:30:28.439
But I just I don't know, while I would love to see him back in New York because, again, brooklyn, katie, regardless for the lack of playoff success, there was moments of just like wow, this is some of the best basketball you've ever played.

00:30:32.589 --> 00:30:37.116
But yeah, with the Suns it feels disappointing at this point because it's like we know you as an all-time great and I know for Bree it's a lot worse.

00:30:37.116 --> 00:30:50.994
But I do think that KD deserves to be for me, just go where you feel wanted and just kind of where you can just keep hooping until the wheels fall off, because you still are your prime it's.

00:30:50.994 --> 00:30:57.579
You still are not contributing to winning anymore, and I don't know if you want to get another chip or if you just want to stay in the league because you love the game so much.

00:30:57.579 --> 00:30:58.775
So we'll see.

00:30:58.775 --> 00:31:01.979
We'll see, but I think Houston would also be a great team for him.

00:31:02.690 --> 00:31:09.018
Yeah, I think Houston would be a great fit as well and I feel that he was a good fit in in phoenix.

00:31:09.018 --> 00:31:11.042
I think the issue was more bradley beal.

00:31:11.042 --> 00:31:17.282
Bradley beal was not a good fit in phoenix and they never should have let chris paul go.

00:31:17.282 --> 00:31:26.011
Yes, chris paul, because, again, booker as much as we like booker right, they never went anywhere until chris paul got there.

00:31:26.011 --> 00:31:27.695
And then that's the.

00:31:27.695 --> 00:31:28.057
You know.

00:31:28.057 --> 00:31:34.130
You know, chris Paul really unlocked a lot for Booker and they were at a whole nother level.

00:31:34.130 --> 00:31:38.781
So they need a true point guard to really orchestrate and run run that team.

00:31:38.781 --> 00:31:42.974
So I think that was one of their biggest mistakes of letting letting Chris Paul go.

00:31:42.974 --> 00:31:44.815
So I think that's where they went wrong.

00:31:44.815 --> 00:31:45.818
And then, of course, bradley bill.

00:31:45.818 --> 00:31:50.018
It was just too many people playing the same position and then trying to have Booker play point.

00:31:50.018 --> 00:31:52.824
That just did not work at all.

00:31:52.824 --> 00:31:57.041
But let me tell you where I want to see Kevin Durant.

00:31:57.041 --> 00:32:02.781
I want to see Kevin Durant with the Dallas Mavericks.

00:32:03.958 --> 00:32:04.362
Oh man.

00:32:05.411 --> 00:32:06.474
I actually like that too.

00:32:06.474 --> 00:32:07.818
Yeah, I like that, yes, yes.

00:32:09.133 --> 00:32:16.717
So again, everybody's getting all out of shape here about OK, no pun intended about us sending Luka Doncic.

00:32:16.717 --> 00:32:22.414
Ok, over to LA, but there is a method to our madness.

00:32:22.414 --> 00:32:28.711
Ok, we need to get more physically fit and we need to get the right pieces and build a new victory, All right.

00:32:28.711 --> 00:32:36.499
So what we're going to do is bring in KD, we're going to have Kyrie and we're going to have AD and with that big three we're going to take over.

00:32:36.499 --> 00:32:43.981
And you can book it right now the champions for next year, 26, will be the Dallas Mavericks.

00:32:44.281 --> 00:32:44.983
Okay, all right.

00:32:44.983 --> 00:32:46.256
Quick question with that, though?

00:32:46.256 --> 00:32:55.968
Didn't he just say defense was champions, championships, and that's the reason why they traded their five-time all nba player yes so what's the 37 girl?

00:32:56.008 --> 00:33:00.767
kevin durango way better defense is a way better defender than luca just I'm not.

00:33:00.926 --> 00:33:01.589
I'm not just kidding.

00:33:01.589 --> 00:33:02.994
He's a way better defender than luca.

00:33:02.994 --> 00:33:08.114
What I am saying, though, is that you're starting that retirement home, but then you don't got a bunch of picks in the future.

00:33:08.114 --> 00:33:12.602
So again, are you going all in for one rig after you made a colossal mistake?

00:33:12.602 --> 00:33:14.265
Is that what they're doing?

00:33:14.305 --> 00:33:17.865
we're going, but like, how much really is it going to take to get kevin durant?

00:33:17.865 --> 00:33:28.217
I don't know if it would be that much, because luca, you didn't give up that much for luca right and kevin durant he's stupid like that's not even he is averaging less.

00:33:28.217 --> 00:33:32.346
He says less numbers and he's coming off a team that just lost a bunch of games.

00:33:32.346 --> 00:33:34.155
That was like the 12th seed in the West.

00:33:34.155 --> 00:33:37.997
So, um yeah, I don't think it would take as much as people think.

00:33:38.813 --> 00:33:39.355
That is true.

00:33:39.355 --> 00:33:52.599
I don't think it'll take as much cause they know they're they got to get off them, yeah, so they're not going to get as much as they they would have before, before, yeah, but uh, yeah, all right breed you have.

00:33:52.619 --> 00:33:53.465
Do you have something you want to throw in?

00:33:53.465 --> 00:33:56.914
I just want him out of phoenix all right.

00:33:57.777 --> 00:34:00.701
Well, hey, phoenix, yeah, they definitely.

00:34:00.701 --> 00:34:07.795
You have some rebuilding to do, certainly have some rebuilding to do, so it'll be interesting to see what happens this off season.

00:34:07.835 --> 00:34:08.898
It's gonna take a few years.

00:34:08.898 --> 00:34:10.304
Yeah, yeah, it's going to take a few years.

00:34:10.385 --> 00:34:20.262
Yeah, it's definitely going to take a few years, but you've got a great fan base, great stadium, very entertaining, and the NBA is better when Phoenix is jumping over there.

00:34:20.262 --> 00:34:24.452
So it's like a nightclub the way everything is set up, so it's a real nice vibe out there.

00:34:24.452 --> 00:34:27.275
Yeah, all right, all right, bree.

00:34:27.275 --> 00:34:31.400
Well, we are going to go ahead and move on to our Westpix.

00:34:31.400 --> 00:34:32.561
But, thank you so much.

00:34:32.561 --> 00:34:43.110
We understand you've got a big, big trip coming up and a big competition, so good luck with that.

00:34:43.130 --> 00:34:45.072
We all will be rooting for you to go ahead and take First?

00:34:45.072 --> 00:34:45.713
You want to tell us about that?

00:34:45.713 --> 00:34:47.976
Yeah, so I'm going to Seattle on Wednesday.

00:34:47.976 --> 00:34:50.981
So I'm going to Seattle on Wednesday, I leave and I'll get back Sunday.

00:34:50.981 --> 00:34:53.965
But it's basically a JEA national convention.

00:34:53.965 --> 00:35:04.996
Students from around the States we go and compete and we make a video or newspaper or yearbook I guess because newspapers aren't a thing anymore and everything else.

00:35:04.996 --> 00:35:11.036
So, like photography, video, yearbook, we all go and I'm in video.

00:35:11.036 --> 00:35:15.996
So I make a video and I made that video with my partner and then we're going to hopefully get first place.

00:35:15.996 --> 00:35:18.675
We got first place last year, so hopefully we went again this year.

00:35:19.277 --> 00:35:21.554
Nice, nice, going to defend your title.

00:35:21.554 --> 00:35:24.697
Yeah, all right, we'll be looking out for that.

00:35:24.697 --> 00:35:28.414
Well, best of luck to you and we'll be looking out for it.

00:35:28.454 --> 00:35:40.291
So thank you yes, thank you all right, all right, okay, well, so we'll be pulling for breed to take first again, and now we are going to go ahead and move into the west.

00:35:40.291 --> 00:35:43.237
Oh man, the stacked deep west.

00:35:43.237 --> 00:35:48.496
Every series is going to be fun to watch, so let's go ahead and get into this, guys.

00:35:48.496 --> 00:35:50.505
Let's start with the next one.

00:35:50.505 --> 00:35:56.998
Here we've got the okc thunder, the team that has, uh, possibly the mvp for this year.

00:35:56.998 --> 00:35:58.601
Sga the mvp.

00:35:58.601 --> 00:36:00.813
Okay, the the mvp, as diego says.

00:36:00.813 --> 00:36:02.077
Yep, they will be playing.

00:36:02.077 --> 00:36:07.034
The winner of the game tonight between the memphis grizzlies and the dallas mavericks.

00:36:07.416 --> 00:36:21.599
Okay, yes, d Dallas is still in it All right still in it so Diego who wins tonight, and then who wins this series, and then how many games I'm actually really rooting for Dallas because I just hope that they're able to get into the playoffs.

00:36:21.670 --> 00:36:23.436
give the fans a few extra games.

00:36:23.436 --> 00:36:27.992
Klay's been playing well so I'm happy for him, but I got Memphis winning it.

00:36:27.992 --> 00:36:31.697
I think that they will lose to the Thunder in five.

00:36:31.697 --> 00:36:35.163
The SGA would just be too much for them.

00:36:35.782 --> 00:36:36.945
Too much war for them?

00:36:36.945 --> 00:36:37.306
I guess?

00:36:37.306 --> 00:36:40.072
Yeah, too much war.

00:36:40.072 --> 00:36:44.400
I got Memphis winning and then I got OKC winning the whole series.

00:36:44.400 --> 00:36:46.043
I have them in five as well.

00:36:46.043 --> 00:37:11.458
I do think that this first round needs to for OKC, they need to prove that the dominance of the regular season wasn't a fluke, because again, if they somehow lose, I think it gives that, like we believe, warriors, like with Dirk, with Dirk type, feeling you don't want to be in that position, especially with the fact that Memphis is very experienced, they could make it a little bit more dangerous.

00:37:11.458 --> 00:37:19.775
So I wouldn't be surprised if the series goes longer, but because of the regular season success and how OKC seems to turn a new leaf, I think that they win this in five.

00:37:20.115 --> 00:37:21.079
OK, all right.

00:37:21.079 --> 00:37:24.099
Well, yeah, I agree with you completely, chris.

00:37:24.099 --> 00:37:26.217
I've got the Grizzlies tonight.

00:37:26.217 --> 00:37:33.858
As much as I would love to see Dallas stay in it, that would be a fun story, fun narrative, but I think the Grizzlies are going to be too tough.

00:37:33.858 --> 00:37:35.795
The Grizzlies are at home.

00:37:35.795 --> 00:37:39.420
The Grizzlies will definitely be going all out tonight.

00:37:39.420 --> 00:37:43.117
I think they pulled this game out and then I have OKC winning in five.

00:37:43.117 --> 00:37:52.673
I think Memphis is going to snatch a game from them at some point, but I think the OKC Thunder will go ahead and win this one at five.

00:37:52.673 --> 00:37:53.516
So, all right, okay, all right.

00:37:53.516 --> 00:37:54.757
Well, let's get to man.

00:37:54.797 --> 00:37:59.675
These next three are not going to be so clear-cut as that okc series.

00:37:59.675 --> 00:38:05.369
So man this one, this series between the la clippers and the denver nuggets.

00:38:05.369 --> 00:38:09.893
This is probably, to me, going to be the best series out of all of them.

00:38:09.893 --> 00:38:25.067
And another opinion that I have on this one is, if you could pick one team that has the highest odds of winning, of losing in the first round or also possibly making it to the finals, is the Denver Nuggets.

00:38:25.067 --> 00:38:27.498
Yeah, you can see either happening with them and go OK, yeah, that's about right.

00:38:27.498 --> 00:38:28.724
Yeah, so this is can see either happening with them and go.

00:38:28.724 --> 00:38:29.748
Oh okay, yeah, that's about right.

00:38:29.748 --> 00:38:32.217
Yeah, so this is going to be great.

00:38:32.217 --> 00:38:34.998
But, diego, who you got and how many games?

00:38:35.018 --> 00:38:35.360
for this one.

00:38:35.360 --> 00:38:37.538
I got the LA Clippers in seven.

00:38:37.538 --> 00:38:41.539
The Clippers, their players, are really turning back the clock.

00:38:41.539 --> 00:38:45.460
Kawhi Leonard and James Harden, they're just playing well.

00:38:45.460 --> 00:38:48.157
Kawhi playing like playoff Kawhi.

00:38:48.157 --> 00:38:56.849
I just think the defense the guy that got zubak playing like he's in the running for defensive player of the year and he can guard yokich.

00:38:56.849 --> 00:38:57.992
So I think that's that's gonna be.

00:38:57.992 --> 00:39:02.213
A big part of it is that they have a guy that can at least contain yokich a little bit.

00:39:02.574 --> 00:39:18.077
So I'm going with clippers okay all right, you're going to clippers in seven all right, I have the clippers in six, which is even I might push that thing up to seven, because the Nikola Jokic factor of it all is what worries me about this series.

00:39:18.077 --> 00:39:26.876
I do think that overall, the Clippers have the better team, they have the better defense, but they got that magic man from serving you feel me, he's a dog.

00:39:26.876 --> 00:39:29.518
So I just I don't know.

00:39:29.518 --> 00:39:44.137
I really want the Clippers to win because I want to see Kawhi have a good series and James Harden, turning back the clock has been really good, but we've seen him sometimes with his playoff performances and sometimes he wants to do better.

00:39:44.137 --> 00:39:59.822
But hopefully those are all conquered and we see Kawhi, james Harden, finally give Clippers fans a little bit of hope of like oh hey, we're not, there's still a little brother, though let's, let's not get that confused but, still have a good moment of just like hey, it was PG's fault, we can fully blame him.

00:39:59.969 --> 00:40:00.974
Let's just actively.

00:40:00.974 --> 00:40:05.652
We got a good team now, so let's Clippers do it.

00:40:06.974 --> 00:40:07.675
Man Clippers.

00:40:07.675 --> 00:40:12.960
Well, yeah, this is going to be a great series, but y'all, come on now.

00:40:12.960 --> 00:40:19.425
The disrespect of the 10-time MVP Joker.

00:40:19.425 --> 00:40:21.427
Come on, Come on, y'all, come on now.

00:40:23.510 --> 00:40:27.114
Clippers have Zubac, he's going to lock him up.

00:40:27.233 --> 00:40:34.521
Listen, we thought we had 80, man, I just like, will you the one thing with playing your kitchen?

00:40:34.521 --> 00:40:36.541
This, as Lakers fan I can attest to this.

00:40:36.541 --> 00:40:37.583
There's no stopping him.

00:40:37.583 --> 00:40:46.590
You just have to pray every you got to hope everybody else decides to suck that night Because, again, if Jamal Murray, michael Porter Jr Show up, the series will get a lot more interesting.

00:40:46.590 --> 00:40:49.900
But because of their inconsistencies, this season I don't see that.

00:40:49.900 --> 00:40:57.536
But yeah, there's nothing you can do with yonkers, it's just he go get his.

00:40:57.536 --> 00:40:58.019
So you just gotta.

00:40:58.019 --> 00:41:03.356
You just gotta hope you slow him down a little bit, but even still, you just gotta hope the team around him just doesn't perform well, and I was.

00:41:03.356 --> 00:41:04.119
I don't know.

00:41:04.119 --> 00:41:05.161
I don't know.

00:41:05.161 --> 00:41:06.934
That's why I have it in six, but I can see it going either way.

00:41:06.934 --> 00:41:07.175
It's scary.

00:41:07.175 --> 00:41:09.284
Well, yeah, I have it in six, but I have it at six, but I can see it going either way, it's scary.

00:41:09.304 --> 00:41:12.737
Well, yeah, I have it in six, but I have it in six for the Denver Nuggets.

00:41:12.737 --> 00:41:15.074
Okay, as far as the Clippers go.

00:41:15.074 --> 00:41:18.594
Fool me once, shame on you.

00:41:18.594 --> 00:41:21.442
Fool me twice, can't get fooled again, all right.

00:41:21.972 --> 00:41:23.097
They don't have Paul George.

00:41:23.630 --> 00:41:25.271
Now there's no, paul George, look man.

00:41:25.291 --> 00:41:30.597
But look, man Kawhi, I am not falling for the banana in the tailpipe.

00:41:30.597 --> 00:41:32.360
I'm sorry, I am not.

00:41:32.360 --> 00:41:43.382
He is going to walk off the court in great fashion and then, all of a sudden, we'll hear something in the news 15 minutes before the next game about him being out.

00:41:43.382 --> 00:41:45.096
I do not trust it.

00:41:45.096 --> 00:41:47.077
This happened too many times.

00:41:47.077 --> 00:41:53.996
And then Harden with all of his playoff blunders I know, no, no, no, give me the nuggets.

00:41:54.570 --> 00:42:06.001
They've got a little bit of rejuvenation, because it looks like, you know, malone, although hey fairly or unfairly kind of ran him out of there, they definitely seem to be responding to the new coach with these last few games.

00:42:06.001 --> 00:42:19.172
I think they're going to come in and have something to prove, and they do have home court as well.

00:42:19.172 --> 00:42:20.918
So I've got uh, I've got denver in six for this one.

00:42:20.918 --> 00:42:22.603
All right, oh, let us know, let us know who y'all got in this one.

00:42:22.603 --> 00:42:23.264
All right, okay, here we go.

00:42:23.264 --> 00:42:24.869
Man, oh boy, these last two can't wait to talk.

00:42:24.869 --> 00:42:27.514
Man, we got, uh, we got some homers here.

00:42:27.514 --> 00:42:29.396
Now we got some homers in the house.

00:42:29.396 --> 00:42:34.025
Okay, so we've got the number three seed LA Lakers.

00:42:34.025 --> 00:42:37.876
Wow, three seed LA Lakers All right, home court advantage.

00:42:37.876 --> 00:42:39.416
They've got Ant-Man.

00:42:39.416 --> 00:42:42.920
Ant-man, potential new face of the NBA.

00:42:42.920 --> 00:42:44.514
He's coming in town.

00:42:44.514 --> 00:42:52.005
Okay, as the sixth seed, diego Diego, who you got in this one man I'm going with the lakers and seven.

00:42:52.788 --> 00:42:57.081
Um, I don't trust ant against luca.

00:42:57.081 --> 00:43:04.702
Luca has already shown that he he'll just little boy and do the whole series and go bear and go bear too.

00:43:04.702 --> 00:43:06.947
I just, I just don't trust him.

00:43:06.947 --> 00:43:10.373
Yeah, and lebron's gonna show up, luca, of course.

00:43:10.373 --> 00:43:12.244
Yeah, yeah, like lakers all day.

00:43:13.409 --> 00:43:15.847
I have for my team.

00:43:15.847 --> 00:43:16.945
I got us at six.

00:43:16.945 --> 00:43:19.110
I'm not going to do a Lakers at five thing.

00:43:19.110 --> 00:43:19.739
That's not happening.

00:43:19.739 --> 00:43:22.650
I think that Anthony Edwards is too good of a player.

00:43:22.650 --> 00:43:28.724
With one of those home games and the energy of that Minnesota home crowd, he's going to snatch maybe one or two.

00:43:28.724 --> 00:43:34.340
I think that, yeah, how we're moving after this season.

00:43:34.340 --> 00:43:49.324
After seeing Luka's 45-point performance versus the Dallas Mavericks which again you know out of shape, but he put 45 on you I just want to say, hey, that's all I'm going to say about that, crying like a baby, yep, and then he dropped 45.

00:43:49.324 --> 00:43:51.826
So that's just throw that out there.

00:43:51.826 --> 00:43:55.469
I think that Luka is on a revenge tour.

00:43:55.469 --> 00:43:57.485
I think he was to that.

00:43:57.485 --> 00:44:01.052
The best way to say it to me is that you got to make him regret it.

00:44:01.052 --> 00:44:06.860
You got to make him remember, you got to make dallas realize that you made one of the greatest mistakes in nba history.

00:44:06.860 --> 00:44:08.503
So let's, let's start the run.

00:44:08.503 --> 00:44:09.784
Let me not get too ahead of myself.

00:44:09.784 --> 00:44:11.847
Let's start the run.

00:44:12.108 --> 00:44:12.909
Okay, okay.

00:44:12.909 --> 00:44:16.735
Well, it's mighty funny, you know, with the Lakers and Luka.

00:44:16.735 --> 00:44:17.942
It is.

00:44:17.942 --> 00:44:20.088
So what have you done for me lately?

00:44:20.088 --> 00:44:31.050
Because he comes out, luka comes out and looks like he's 87 years old, okay, and all of a sudden the Lakers aren't going anywhere, and then he has one good game against.

00:44:31.050 --> 00:44:32.465
He has one good game against.

00:44:32.465 --> 00:44:33.960
He has one good game against.

00:44:34.179 --> 00:44:35.967
The Brooklyn Nets are like some bad team.

00:44:36.000 --> 00:44:40.710
Yeah some awful team and then all of a sudden, oh Luka, oh Luka is doing it.

00:44:41.903 --> 00:44:44.599
It is the craziest thing to see no one talks about the bad game.

00:44:45.364 --> 00:44:47.293
The up and down nature of this team.

00:44:47.293 --> 00:44:49.086
The up and down nature of this team.

00:44:49.086 --> 00:44:51.688
With that said, I've got the Lakers in five.

00:44:51.688 --> 00:44:52.672
Okay, see nature of this team.

00:44:52.672 --> 00:44:54.338
With that said, I've got the Lakers in five.

00:44:54.338 --> 00:44:58.525
Okay, but big, but okay, I've got them in five.

00:44:58.565 --> 00:45:01.920
Because, number one, ant, I don't trust Ant.

00:45:01.920 --> 00:45:09.148
Okay, I still can't unsee what I saw last year and the way that Luka went in there and became everybody's father.

00:45:09.148 --> 00:45:35.182
Okay, the fact that Ant let that man come in there and cuss Gobert out after scoring on him and then do all the stuff that he was doing to the crowd and Ant's supposed to be ATL, this and that and he let Luca just sit there and put his feet up on the couch and get a sandwich out of the refrigerator and didn't do anything about it refrigerator and didn't do anything about it.

00:45:35.182 --> 00:45:37.028
Right, didn't, didn't coke, didn't go up to him, didn't say anything to him.

00:45:37.028 --> 00:45:39.737
I'm like really, this man came in here and just completely dog jaw again.

00:45:39.737 --> 00:45:43.407
Yeah, I have no problem with minnesota losing to dallas last year.

00:45:43.447 --> 00:45:44.268
That wasn't the point.

00:45:44.268 --> 00:45:53.606
It was the way they did it and the way they let, the way he let luca come in there and just talk to everybody the way they did and he didn't do anything about it.

00:45:53.606 --> 00:45:56.288
No fight, I can't unsee that.

00:45:56.288 --> 00:46:03.164
So if you're that way with Luka, then how are you going to be with Luka and LeBron and crew?

00:46:03.164 --> 00:46:05.905
No, no, no, I don't trust it.

00:46:05.905 --> 00:46:07.744
I think the Lakers get this one in five.

00:46:07.744 --> 00:46:11.864
Then everyone, like somebody over here, is going to get all excited.

00:46:11.864 --> 00:46:16.769
Santa Leica is going to win a championship and then they will proceed to then lose in the next round.

00:46:16.769 --> 00:46:18.559
So that's what I see happening, all right.

00:46:19.541 --> 00:46:21.168
Look at, hey, clip this one.

00:46:21.280 --> 00:46:22.887
This needs to be the clip that needs to be shown.

00:46:23.621 --> 00:46:29.126
If we come on, come on, it's going to be fun, it's going to be fun, it's getting good to him, diego.

00:46:37.699 --> 00:46:38.260
It's getting good to him.

00:46:38.260 --> 00:46:39.282
It's getting good to him.

00:46:39.282 --> 00:46:40.105
Let's get to the Warriors.

00:46:40.105 --> 00:46:40.806
Let's go, let's go.

00:46:40.965 --> 00:46:41.347
All right.

00:46:41.347 --> 00:46:46.081
Now we will be joined by special guest uh, mr James McFarlane, here ina moment.

00:46:46.081 --> 00:46:54.820
We're going to talk about one more game and then we're going to bring him on and get his take on the West games, and then also our next topic between jimmy butler and steph curry.

00:46:54.820 --> 00:46:56.083
So we can't wait for that.

00:46:56.083 --> 00:47:00.762
But before we do that, we've got to get into this last series.

00:47:00.762 --> 00:47:02.724
Oh man, diego, series.

00:47:02.724 --> 00:47:26.768
We've got, oh man, but number two seed houston rockets, coached by my god you doka, okay, and they have the seventh seed, golden State Warriors, who barely won a play-in game, had to have a heroic effort from Jimmy Hemi Butler and Steph Curry just to barely win that game Lost to the Clippers at the end of the season.

00:47:26.768 --> 00:47:31.646
So they have somehow gotten into the playoffs and now we have this matchup here.

00:47:31.646 --> 00:47:35.811
So, diego, who do you have between these two teams?

00:47:35.811 --> 00:47:37.585
I got the Warriors and six.

00:47:38.219 --> 00:47:39.465
This should be pretty light.

00:47:39.465 --> 00:47:52.186
I'm being nice giving the Rockets two games actually, but Emei Udoka we beat Emei Udoka in the finals just a few years ago, so we have a finals win over him.

00:47:52.186 --> 00:47:54.588
And you say it's a 2-7 matchup.

00:47:54.588 --> 00:48:00.048
True, but there's only a four-game difference between the Rockets and the Warriors, so it's really tight.

00:48:00.048 --> 00:48:03.528
The Warriors they got Jimmy, Jimmy and Steph.

00:48:03.528 --> 00:48:06.990
Jimmy went off for like 38-8-7 in the playing game.

00:48:06.990 --> 00:48:08.827
Steph added 37.

00:48:08.827 --> 00:48:16.108
So I mean that's just an unstoppable duo, the best duo in the playoffs, Better than Luca and LeBron.

00:48:16.922 --> 00:48:21.891
Oh, that's a good In terms of playoff, playoff, like there's dominance.

00:48:21.980 --> 00:48:22.985
That's those two all day.

00:48:22.985 --> 00:48:26.710
Like Draymond, you know, gives us a little intensity.

00:48:26.710 --> 00:48:29.907
You know he might cost us a game or two.

00:48:30.248 --> 00:48:31.030
He, might, he might.

00:48:31.030 --> 00:48:33.181
He already cost you two championships, yeah, okay.

00:48:33.202 --> 00:48:34.623
It might cost us a game or two, he might, he might.

00:48:34.643 --> 00:48:35.505
He already cost you two championships.

00:48:35.505 --> 00:48:36.365
Yeah, okay, all right Easy.

00:48:36.385 --> 00:48:37.646
Yeah and yeah, miss Thompson.

00:48:37.646 --> 00:48:40.829
Yeah, there is a little bit of slander on your team.

00:48:40.829 --> 00:48:42.211
I will try to watch myself.

00:48:42.211 --> 00:48:45.114
Miss Thompson, I will definitely try to do that, all right.

00:48:45.114 --> 00:48:46.916
Okay, c-pain, who you?

00:48:46.936 --> 00:48:47.820
got All right.

00:48:47.820 --> 00:48:49.324
I got the Warriors at is at six as well.

00:48:49.324 --> 00:48:59.766
Playoff Jimmy showed up and now I'm very, very worried about playing that, potentially the next round, and with the best duos conversation.

00:48:59.766 --> 00:49:08.702
I do think that that is very interesting with having a four I mean four-time champion, one of the greatest playoff risers we've ever seen.

00:49:08.702 --> 00:49:13.231
So hey, let's see if y'all can start your run again.

00:49:13.231 --> 00:49:16.581
We're not going to talk about what Ahmed did a couple weeks ago.

00:49:16.581 --> 00:49:19.210
You know, where a certain guy only scored 3A.

00:49:19.697 --> 00:49:21.346
It just happened this regular season.

00:49:22.501 --> 00:49:23.286
He was holding stuff.

00:49:23.286 --> 00:49:31.364
He was holding stuff more than the Saints were holding the Rams in the 2018 NFC Championship.

00:49:31.364 --> 00:49:31.967
Yeah, I'm going that far back.

00:49:31.967 --> 00:49:34.259
He was More than the Saints were holding the Rams in the 2018 NFC Championship.

00:49:34.278 --> 00:49:34.400
Gotcha.

00:49:35.001 --> 00:49:36.307
Yeah, I'm going that far back.

00:49:36.307 --> 00:49:39.949
He was holding him more than that DB was holding the receiver.

00:49:40.268 --> 00:49:41.512
Nice, my bad bro.

00:49:41.512 --> 00:49:42.851
I knew that was a sore spot.

00:49:43.443 --> 00:49:44.338
I just had to get that little joke.

00:49:44.740 --> 00:49:46.186
But I still have the Warriors winning this.

00:49:46.186 --> 00:49:52.190
I mean, the Rockets are too young, they don't have the experience and again, I feel like E-Mail is going to coach them.

00:49:52.190 --> 00:50:00.579
Well, but it really depends on who plays the better defense in the series, and I don't know if you can stop Steph and Jimmy in like four games.

00:50:00.762 --> 00:50:04.860
I don't think you can do that that whistle will be in Steph's favor.

00:50:04.860 --> 00:50:09.405
Because of the experience I'm just going to say it might not be right, but I just think it will be.

00:50:09.467 --> 00:50:10.280
That is a good point.

00:50:10.280 --> 00:50:19.307
But in terms of the Rockets, as the great, honorable Keith Sweat once said, we may be young but we are ready.

00:50:19.307 --> 00:50:26.010
All right, the Rockets.

00:50:26.010 --> 00:50:29.210
I got the Rockets in seven.

00:50:29.210 --> 00:50:32.268
I got the Houston Rockets in seven.

00:50:32.268 --> 00:50:34.829
So, diego, I might not be able to come home tonight.

00:50:34.829 --> 00:50:36.920
So yes, sir.

00:50:37.141 --> 00:50:40.460
So my question was so you have the Rockets beating us in the next round.

00:50:40.460 --> 00:50:46.090
I wouldn't be mad if you had the Warriors beating us but the Rockets beating the Lakers in the next round.

00:50:46.090 --> 00:50:48.465
Now I actually have the.

00:50:48.505 --> 00:50:50.751
Lakers winning that only because they're playing the Rockets.

00:50:50.751 --> 00:50:54.920
Okay, so I have the Lakers winning that only because they're playing the Rockets.

00:50:54.920 --> 00:50:56.572
Okay, so I have the Lakers going to the Western Conference Finals for the record, but they're going to lose in the Western Conference Finals.

00:50:56.572 --> 00:50:58.922
They're going to win because they've been lucky with these matchups.

00:50:58.922 --> 00:51:01.795
The Lakers are lucky to play the Timberwolves first round.

00:51:01.795 --> 00:51:07.181
They'll be lucky to play Houston, but then their luck will run out against OKC that next round.

00:51:07.181 --> 00:51:10.949
So don't worry about it, you got them waiting on you Don't worry about that.

00:51:11.088 --> 00:51:12.512
Some teams just got to get a better season.

00:51:12.512 --> 00:51:13.172
That's on them.

00:51:13.172 --> 00:51:13.853
That's on them.

00:51:14.340 --> 00:51:20.509
The Rockets showed, oh man, just about a week ago they showed that tenacious defense.

00:51:20.509 --> 00:51:24.250
It's just like see, I got the man, Diego, I got to school you this.

00:51:25.501 --> 00:51:29.228
Everyone knows it was Draymond's fault, though, because Draymond was doing too much that game.

00:51:34.500 --> 00:51:35.094
And Draymond's going to be doing too much in the first round.

00:51:35.094 --> 00:51:35.797
Draymond's learned you and your mother are going to be so frustrated.

00:51:35.797 --> 00:51:36.273
He's became more mature.

00:51:36.942 --> 00:51:38.166
He's ready for this matchup.

00:51:38.166 --> 00:51:46.347
And we've owned the Rockets for like 10 years, Every year, every time we beat them that ownership is over, because now they have Yudoka.

00:51:46.880 --> 00:51:52.827
Okay, they got your other guy they got your other guy from Memphis, was it Brooks?

00:51:52.967 --> 00:51:53.789
Yeah, we own him too.

00:51:53.789 --> 00:51:56.494
We own everybody no no, no, no, no.

00:51:56.880 --> 00:51:59.809
Draymond is going to lose his mind in this series.

00:51:59.809 --> 00:52:06.530
I'm telling you they're going to bottle up, they're going to double Steph Okay, and it's going to be all on himmy.

00:52:06.530 --> 00:52:16.864
Jimmy and 37, however old Jimmy Butler is, is not going to be able to carry the load, probably going to be able to carry the load, probably going to bang knees again, and it's just not.

00:52:16.864 --> 00:52:18.139
He's not going to be able to get them over the hump.

00:52:18.139 --> 00:52:28.427
These young, upstart Houston Rockets just like them, houston Cougars, put that D on your Duke Blue Devils these Houston Rockets are going to do the same thing.

00:52:28.427 --> 00:52:31.182
It's defense, just like they say in Dallas Defense wins championships.

00:52:31.182 --> 00:52:31.766
It's defense is defense.

00:52:31.766 --> 00:52:35.519
Just like they say in Dallas defense wins championships Because defense is going to be the difference.

00:52:37.121 --> 00:52:38.867
That tells me why the Warriors are going to win.

00:52:40.170 --> 00:52:45.048
That's right, we're going to have this tape to play.

00:52:45.260 --> 00:52:48.996
It's the great Nico Harrison said All-time great, nico Harrison.

00:52:52.385 --> 00:52:53.007
Do you have a spare?

00:52:53.047 --> 00:52:53.568
room for me?

00:52:53.568 --> 00:52:55.432
I do.

00:52:55.432 --> 00:52:59.594
You might just have to be on my couch, bro, because you said the Lakers ain't going to go to the finals.

00:52:59.695 --> 00:53:00.418
Oh dang, that's right.

00:53:00.418 --> 00:53:02.614
I wouldn't give you the room if you said we wouldn't chill.

00:53:02.655 --> 00:53:03.360
I'll have nowhere to go.

00:53:03.400 --> 00:53:05.608
You might just have to be on the couch, man, I'll find a home.

00:53:09.105 --> 00:53:10.867
I'll find a way, ok, all right.

00:53:10.867 --> 00:53:19.409
Well, hey, let's bring our guy to kind of set us straight here, mr James McFarlane, to talk about these series.

00:53:19.409 --> 00:53:24.572
Ok, and then we're going to talk about Steph and Hemi, last second shot.

00:53:24.572 --> 00:53:28.067
So let's go ahead and bring our guy in here.

00:53:28.067 --> 00:53:31.233
Mr James McFarlane, how you doing my man?

00:53:31.481 --> 00:53:32.423
I'm doing pretty good.

00:53:32.423 --> 00:53:32.925
How's it?

00:53:32.945 --> 00:53:33.226
going?

00:53:33.226 --> 00:53:33.748
How's it going?

00:53:33.748 --> 00:53:35.867
All right, doing great, Doing great.

00:53:35.867 --> 00:53:38.608
So hey, first off, let's rewind back.

00:53:38.608 --> 00:53:43.751
Do you have any comments on Diego's debacle with Duke?

00:53:43.751 --> 00:53:45.367
Anything you want to chime in on that?

00:53:45.840 --> 00:53:47.507
Listen, diego, don't worry about it.

00:53:47.507 --> 00:53:48.985
Duke messed up my brackets too.

00:53:48.985 --> 00:53:50.786
Luckily I made two brackets.

00:53:50.786 --> 00:53:56.911
I had Florida to win one and I had Duke to win another one.

00:53:56.911 --> 00:53:57.353
But Duke let me down.

00:53:57.353 --> 00:53:58.460
I thought Duke was going to win.

00:53:58.460 --> 00:54:03.943
Duke played not to lose and Houston played to win.

00:54:03.943 --> 00:54:05.447
That was the difference.

00:54:05.447 --> 00:54:07.530
It was just like that.

00:54:07.530 --> 00:54:15.409
Like you said, a Houston Cougar defense was a whole other different aggressive animal that Duke wasn't used to seeing.

00:54:15.409 --> 00:54:17.184
That's not ACC ball.

00:54:17.184 --> 00:54:21.291
They used to see these offensive plays, running these motions, running these sets.

00:54:21.291 --> 00:54:25.650
Houston was playing at a whole other intensity so they weren't ready for it.

00:54:25.650 --> 00:54:26.311
But it's okay.

00:54:26.311 --> 00:54:29.289
You know, cougar flag hadn't declared for the draft yet.

00:54:29.289 --> 00:54:32.268
You got the Bougie twins coming in.

00:54:32.268 --> 00:54:36.989
They got some transfers coming in, so it's looking promising for Duke.

00:54:36.989 --> 00:54:38.565
It's looking very promising.

00:54:38.565 --> 00:54:40.788
And then they got Coach Shire.

00:54:40.788 --> 00:54:43.427
He's doing a good job since Coach K left.

00:54:44.744 --> 00:54:45.346
So we'll see.

00:54:45.987 --> 00:54:46.449
That's right.

00:54:46.679 --> 00:54:47.925
Yeah, we will be back.

00:54:47.925 --> 00:54:51.347
We got the Bouger twins, like you said, so we'll be back.

00:54:51.467 --> 00:54:54.420
Yeah, yeah, yeah.

00:54:54.420 --> 00:54:55.101
It's gonna be gonna be fun to see.

00:54:55.101 --> 00:54:57.306
I can't wait to see what happens, what happens there.

00:54:57.306 --> 00:55:02.045
So, james, let's, uh, let's talk about, let's go reverse order here.

00:55:02.045 --> 00:55:05.661
We just talked about the houston rockets and golden state warriors.

00:55:05.661 --> 00:55:08.067
Why don't you give us your take on that series?

00:55:08.067 --> 00:55:09.028
What's going to happen there?

00:55:09.590 --> 00:55:09.951
all right.

00:55:09.951 --> 00:55:17.925
So, diego, I know you are a warriors fan, but listen, houston is playing at a whole, nother different level.

00:55:17.925 --> 00:55:19.329
They got coaching.

00:55:19.329 --> 00:55:25.706
Now, hey, these young guys are animals and they are so aggressive, just like the houston cougars.

00:55:25.706 --> 00:55:28.411
Green is playing.

00:55:28.411 --> 00:55:31.083
Listen, these guys are playing at a whole nother level.

00:55:31.083 --> 00:55:40.480
But one thing we have to take into consideration is the second-place team and the eighth-place team is four wins from each other.

00:55:40.480 --> 00:55:55.273
So when you look at that, you have to look and say, okay, well, it could go either way between those four games in the standings at the end of the season, but Houston, I got Houston in six or seven.

00:55:56.320 --> 00:55:57.623
And if it get, to seven.

00:55:58.965 --> 00:56:01.992
We'll talk about the only way the Warriors will win.

00:56:01.992 --> 00:56:06.867
If it gets to seven and it comes down to the last shot, I'm taking Curry with the last shot.

00:56:07.940 --> 00:56:10.750
That's the only way the Warriors will win.

00:56:10.960 --> 00:56:12.407
That's the only way the Warriors will win.

00:56:12.407 --> 00:56:14.030
If it goes to seven, the ball's in Curry at the last second.

00:56:14.030 --> 00:56:14.489
That's the only way the Warriors will win.

00:56:14.489 --> 00:56:15.489
If it goes to seven, the ball's in Curry at the last second.

00:56:15.489 --> 00:56:17.032
That's it, oh, okay.

00:56:18.625 --> 00:56:19.688
I'm concerned with Houston.

00:56:19.688 --> 00:56:24.487
Do they have a guy that can get a bucket at the end In close games?

00:56:24.487 --> 00:56:25.903
Do they have a guy?

00:56:25.903 --> 00:56:31.001
Because in these games in the regular season they've struggled with finishing at the end.

00:56:31.001 --> 00:56:33.608
That's the only thing I'm concerned with them about Warriors.

00:56:33.608 --> 00:56:34.670
We got two guys.

00:56:34.670 --> 00:56:35.813
Two guys.

00:56:35.813 --> 00:56:37.246
And we got other shoes.

00:56:37.246 --> 00:56:38.806
We got Buddy Heald, who can make a shot.

00:56:38.806 --> 00:56:40.284
We got Pajemski also.

00:56:41.221 --> 00:56:43.447
Buddy Heald can make a shot, can he?

00:56:43.447 --> 00:56:44.309
Yes, he can.

00:56:44.349 --> 00:56:46.126
Did he hit the rim, did he?

00:56:46.146 --> 00:56:47.480
even hit the rim on that shot.

00:56:47.820 --> 00:56:52.730
He can literally get y'all to a higher scene it's one shot.

00:56:52.809 --> 00:57:05.009
That was not the time for him to do it but he can make a shot, he can I trust him more than I trust Jalen Green to make the last second shot.

00:57:06.423 --> 00:57:10.568
Diego Houston plays ahead, they're gonna outscore you.

00:57:10.568 --> 00:57:17.485
They're gonna listen, they're gonna run them, old guys, so much until by the time it gets to the fourth quarter.

00:57:17.485 --> 00:57:33.577
Listen, all right, you're going to see, they're going to run them so much in those first four games that the Warriors are going to have to win at least two to three games in the first four games in order to even compete with he's.

00:57:33.577 --> 00:57:40.322
Because, after what, houston is gonna run and run and run the entire time it's gonna be a track meet might be getting nervous.

00:57:40.402 --> 00:57:51.052
No, it's gonna be a track meet but it war is gonna have to figure out how to slow the game down, because houston they play fast yeah, yeah, I do, can't, can't wait for that.

00:57:51.452 --> 00:57:52.742
Well, let's move on to uh.

00:57:52.742 --> 00:57:56.668
We got a couple more series to hit it real quick love your, love, your analysis.

00:57:56.668 --> 00:58:00.742
And let's also acknowledge here again you and diego have a connection.

00:58:00.742 --> 00:58:06.382
You both are at ravenscrawl, so we want to definitely, definitely shout you out with uh, with that as well.

00:58:06.802 --> 00:58:08.905
So okay all right, all right.

00:58:08.905 --> 00:58:13.012
Well, hey, l Lakers and Timberwolves Chris.

00:58:13.012 --> 00:58:15.976
We affectionately refer to him as C-Pain.

00:58:15.976 --> 00:58:17.465
Wife nicknamed him C-Pain.

00:58:17.465 --> 00:58:19.864
He is a Laker.

00:58:19.864 --> 00:58:21.769
What You're?

00:58:21.769 --> 00:58:22.451
A Laker homer?

00:58:22.451 --> 00:58:28.731
Okay, laker homer, but LeBron LeBron's your guy as well, although you claim it's Lakers and then LeBron.

00:58:28.820 --> 00:58:30.320
It is Lakers and LeBron forever.

00:58:30.320 --> 00:58:32.362
It's always going to be like that.

00:58:32.523 --> 00:58:34.905
Okay, that's what we get.

00:58:34.945 --> 00:58:38.588
We're, for you know, hired God at this point.

00:58:38.588 --> 00:58:42.032
Thank you for bringing us back after the cover.

00:58:42.032 --> 00:58:48.960
Appreciate you, but yeah, when he's gone, I'm going to still rock with the Lakers, not because we have Luka now, not for that reason either.

00:58:48.981 --> 00:58:53.650
So we all have the Lakers in either five, six, seven, we all have the Lakers.

00:58:53.650 --> 00:58:54.751
How about you, james?

00:58:55.532 --> 00:58:56.313
I agree with that.

00:58:56.313 --> 00:59:00.992
I think that Minnesota is not on one core right now.

00:59:00.992 --> 00:59:04.565
If you would have asked me this question last year, it would have been a different answer.

00:59:04.565 --> 00:59:08.690
But I think the Lakers are meshing right now.

00:59:08.690 --> 00:59:12.141
They're figuring out their offense and they're figuring out okay.

00:59:12.141 --> 00:59:17.159
All right, let's see what's working best to our advantage against these other teams, especially like minnesota.

00:59:17.159 --> 00:59:17.780
Minnesota's.

00:59:17.780 --> 00:59:25.126
I think they're playing kind of haywire right now and I think the lakers are honing in on what is getting them to their wins.

00:59:25.126 --> 00:59:31.143
So, by a small margin I I got to put this up by a small margin we got the lakers.

00:59:31.143 --> 00:59:34.822
By a small margin, we got the Lakers in five or six.

00:59:34.822 --> 00:59:36.226
You know what I'm saying, okay.

00:59:36.867 --> 00:59:37.407
I love it.

00:59:37.407 --> 00:59:38.731
I love it, I love that.

00:59:38.731 --> 00:59:40.074
Okay, all right.

00:59:40.074 --> 00:59:42.407
So next, clippers, nuggets.

00:59:42.407 --> 00:59:43.001
Man this.

00:59:43.001 --> 00:59:47.963
Arguably, although a lot of these are going to be competitive, arguably the most competitive series we're flipping.

00:59:47.963 --> 00:59:50.047
I have nuggets, have Nuggets, they both have Clippers.

00:59:50.047 --> 00:59:51.329
Who do you have in this one?

00:59:52.231 --> 00:59:57.447
I have the Nuggets and I got the Nuggets in six.

00:59:57.447 --> 01:00:05.664
I think that, just off of pure talent from Murray and the Joker, they've been playing phenomenal.

01:00:05.664 --> 01:00:14.900
Even though I know Shy is the front runner for the MVP, the Joker is right there behind him.

01:00:14.900 --> 01:00:29.490
I'm talking about in close proximity, right behind him, and I think that the Joker should win the MVP, but he's probably not this year because you know that has a lot to do with where your team finishes and you know your interactions with the team and things of that nature.

01:00:29.490 --> 01:00:31.023
But I have the Nuggets.

01:00:31.023 --> 01:00:34.711
Just off for sheer talent, I got them in six.

01:00:34.711 --> 01:00:47.679
I think that the Lakers are I mean, not the Lakers, the Clippers are past their prime a little bit and they don't have Paul George, so I think this might be their last hoorah before they have to dismantle the team.

01:00:48.862 --> 01:00:51.201
Yeah, I love that y'all have them in six as well.

01:00:51.201 --> 01:00:53.163
I'm exactly there with you.

01:00:53.163 --> 01:00:54.905
And then the last series.

01:00:54.905 --> 01:01:01.896
Before we get into our final debate here, we've got either the Dallas Mavericks or the Memphis Grizzlies playing the Thunder.

01:01:01.896 --> 01:01:06.692
I believe you have whoever, the eighth seed is upsetting OKC, is that correct?

01:01:07.920 --> 01:01:08.643
Absolutely not.

01:01:08.643 --> 01:01:10.990
It doesn't even matter who wins the eighth seed.

01:01:10.990 --> 01:01:16.853
I have the Oklahoma City jersey on right now because it's their time.

01:01:16.853 --> 01:01:20.085
I'm not an Oklahoma City fan, I'm just a fan of the NBA.

01:01:20.085 --> 01:01:24.407
This is actually a KD jersey, so you know what I'm saying.

01:01:24.407 --> 01:01:31.289
Just in case KD ever wants to go to OKC, he would have to take considerably, a whole lot less money.

01:01:31.900 --> 01:01:36.492
But ideally, oklahoma City is going to win.

01:01:36.492 --> 01:01:38.106
I think they're going to win the West.

01:01:38.106 --> 01:01:39.987
It depends when they get to the Lakers.

01:01:39.987 --> 01:01:43.585
You know the Lakers are smart when they come with their schemes and plan and stuff like that.

01:01:43.585 --> 01:01:54.110
It's just going old team, old, wise team versus young, energetic team and whoever wins between that two is probably going to win it all.

01:01:55.601 --> 01:02:08.509
But as far as I just want to speak on KD, his next move, the only place I see KD fitting is the Rockets, to be honest, and it may be like at a reduced role.

01:02:08.509 --> 01:02:11.148
So I looked at the last five years.

01:02:11.148 --> 01:02:14.996
Kd has averaged 28 points in the last five years.

01:02:14.996 --> 01:02:18.860
That production can fit well in any system.

01:02:18.860 --> 01:02:22.608
You put him with the Rockets, that'll be good, that'll be great.

01:02:22.608 --> 01:02:26.199
You put him with the Lakers.

01:02:26.199 --> 01:02:35.023
The Lakers somehow find ways to get players that don't fit the system but eventually end up there.

01:02:35.043 --> 01:02:36.248
I don don't know how.

01:02:36.248 --> 01:02:41.112
And then, of course, if he goes to the warriors, everybody would love that.

01:02:41.112 --> 01:02:41.675
You know what I'm saying.

01:02:41.675 --> 01:02:53.150
You can't complain with that, but it is one team that no one's paying attention to that he will fit great with that's missing a part that he could potentially fit.

01:02:53.150 --> 01:02:58.125
He would fit great with that's missing a part that he could potentially fit.

01:02:58.125 --> 01:02:58.947
And the team is the books.

01:02:58.947 --> 01:03:00.289
Middleton's not there anymore.

01:03:00.289 --> 01:03:03.376
So if he goes to a situation like that, it could work.

01:03:03.376 --> 01:03:10.224
It could be like one of those let's get it, the one that, let's get this one and done and let's you know, let's figure out the rest after that.

01:03:10.224 --> 01:03:11.266
So yeah, okay.

01:03:11.306 --> 01:03:11.827
I like that.

01:03:11.907 --> 01:03:15.659
I like that yeah, I like that a lot yeah, I didn't think about that.

01:03:15.659 --> 01:03:20.237
That's a good one love your insight.

01:03:20.298 --> 01:03:22.740
And then we already know last second shot.

01:03:22.740 --> 01:03:27.489
We're going to talk about this next, but we have your take here before we let you go.

01:03:27.489 --> 01:03:38.043
Last second shot I think you already said Steph Curry is that it's situational oh it just depends on who's guarding who.

01:03:38.525 --> 01:03:51.972
okay, say situational, if I'm down, if you're down by two and you want to win the game and and curry has been hitting all game he's he's made at least four or five threes a game.

01:03:51.972 --> 01:03:58.711
You got to put the ball in Curry's hands, but Jimmy has a nickname and it's called Jimmy Buckets.

01:03:58.711 --> 01:04:00.405
Jimmy is going to back you.

01:04:00.405 --> 01:04:03.530
If you got a small guard guarding him, he's going to back you down.

01:04:03.530 --> 01:04:08.387
He's going to put you in the post and he's going to turn around, make the shot, get the foul.

01:04:08.387 --> 01:04:10.382
Jimmy Buckets is going to get to the free throw line.

01:04:10.382 --> 01:04:11.282
He's going to get to the free throw line.

01:04:11.282 --> 01:04:12.222
He's going to make his free throws.

01:04:12.222 --> 01:04:13.523
So it's all situation.

01:04:13.523 --> 01:04:15.405
If you're down by one, I'm giving it to Jimmy.

01:04:15.405 --> 01:04:17.588
You're down by two, I'm giving it to Curry.

01:04:18.148 --> 01:04:20.431
Okay, all right, I like that, love it, love it.

01:04:20.431 --> 01:04:23.873
Well, james, you are welcome anytime.

01:04:23.873 --> 01:04:30.242
It was an absolute pleasure talking to you today and we certainly hope to see you again.

01:04:30.242 --> 01:04:34.141
We'll be at King Saturday next week and we have many, many shows coming up again.

01:04:34.141 --> 01:04:38.108
We're weekly, so you're welcome anytime and thank you so much.

01:04:38.710 --> 01:04:40.201
Absolutely, it was a pleasure.

01:04:40.782 --> 01:04:45.251
All right, all right, yes, ladies and gentlemen, mr McFarland, that was great man.

01:04:45.251 --> 01:04:47.804
Yes, yes, diego, thanks for hooking that up.

01:04:47.804 --> 01:05:09.028
All right, well, gentlemen, let's again talk about this last second shot, and then we're going to wrap up with making our finals pick, and then, of course, we're going to have Brandon send us home with his final take here, but so again, james said it's situational.

01:05:09.028 --> 01:05:12.804
Ok, great, take Love that, diego, for you.

01:05:12.804 --> 01:05:14.608
Last second shot.

01:05:14.608 --> 01:05:17.461
Is it Steph Curry or is it Hemi Jimmy?

01:05:18.605 --> 01:05:22.393
I want Jimmy Butler shooting the last shot, regardless of the situation.

01:05:22.393 --> 01:05:31.826
I love Steph, but first off, everyone's going to be thinking about Steph, everyone's going to be trying to guard him or double team him.

01:05:31.826 --> 01:05:39.052
They're not going to expect us to get Jimmy and especially, like Mr Mack said, he can score in so many different ways.

01:05:39.052 --> 01:05:41.307
Back you down, get a mid-range.

01:05:41.307 --> 01:05:43.527
If you get fouled, hit some free throws.

01:05:43.527 --> 01:05:44.838
He can hit threes also.

01:05:44.838 --> 01:05:52.306
So if you get Steph, let's say we're down by three, steph's getting double teamed.

01:05:52.306 --> 01:05:54.105
Jimmy's probably going gonna be wide open.

01:05:54.105 --> 01:05:56.706
He can hit that three especially, play off Jimmy.

01:05:56.706 --> 01:05:59.288
I trust him more than many, many other players.

01:05:59.288 --> 01:06:02.248
Yeah, I, I want Jimmy shooting the last shot.

01:06:02.268 --> 01:06:04.240
Okay, when Jimmy's shooting the last shot, I like that.

01:06:04.240 --> 01:06:04.481
Okay.

01:06:04.481 --> 01:06:05.322
How about you see pain?

01:06:05.882 --> 01:06:07.784
I would say Jimmy as well.

01:06:07.784 --> 01:06:14.469
Again, there's a proven commodity that in the playoffs, the play had really keyed me in.

01:06:14.469 --> 01:06:18.592
It was like, oh yeah, he's back on, so you know back to who he is.

01:06:18.592 --> 01:06:25.878
So, yeah, man, I have Jimmy just taking the shot against Steph and, like Diego said, everybody's keying on him.

01:06:25.878 --> 01:06:30.983
Everybody's going to be like we got to stop him from, you know, gaming us.

01:06:30.983 --> 01:06:33.849
But I think Jimmy, he's not afraid of that moment and he will definitely.

01:06:33.849 --> 01:06:36.382
I feel like definitely.

01:06:36.382 --> 01:06:40.981
There's times where he's going to take over, so I think I'd have him take the last shot as well.

01:06:40.981 --> 01:06:41.501
What about you?

01:06:41.561 --> 01:06:44.184
okay, okay uh, I got draymond green.

01:06:44.184 --> 01:06:46.867
Oh no, I was like didn't get down.

01:06:46.867 --> 01:06:47.809
He missed a key layup.

01:06:54.422 --> 01:06:56.827
I know right, Almost airballed it.

01:06:57.750 --> 01:06:58.882
No, I've got Jimmy.

01:06:58.882 --> 01:07:00.427
Yeah, I got Jimmy Buckets as well.

01:07:00.427 --> 01:07:03.431
Steph, again, that's not his game.

01:07:03.431 --> 01:07:05.646
You know last second shot he's.

01:07:05.646 --> 01:07:10.188
You know he's not 6'5", 6'6", 6'7", you know he's.

01:07:10.782 --> 01:07:16.844
I have only really seen one or two times where he's even been able to get a decent look in that.

01:07:16.844 --> 01:07:25.972
In that situation, when you know he's going to get the ball and they pressure him and put a long guy on him, he just doesn't get a good enough look in my opinion.

01:07:25.972 --> 01:07:28.827
So to me, have steph be a decoy.

01:07:28.827 --> 01:07:30.710
He's going to draw a bunch of attention.

01:07:30.710 --> 01:07:32.376
Just capitalize on that.

01:07:32.376 --> 01:07:39.190
Get the ball to jimmy buckets, let him play his uh, grown man bully ball and get whatever bucket you need.

01:07:39.190 --> 01:07:41.661
So yeah, because of that I would go.

01:07:41.661 --> 01:07:43.106
I would go with him.

01:07:43.106 --> 01:07:48.280
Now if they still had clay, I would say clay, I would want clay again.

01:07:48.280 --> 01:07:50.103
Clay's taller, he can.

01:07:50.103 --> 01:07:53.090
You know he's got that quick and it's just a bigger play.

01:07:53.090 --> 01:07:56.487
Like I said, I think Steph is just too small and he doesn't.

01:07:56.487 --> 01:08:04.661
You know, as athletic as he is, he doesn't have enough wiggle to just John Morant, shake somebody and then get that space, you know.

01:08:04.681 --> 01:08:08.188
So yeah, yeah, I also wouldn't sleep on Brandon Pajemski too.

01:08:08.188 --> 01:08:12.545
He's a great shooter, you know, can hit a bunch of shots.

01:08:12.545 --> 01:08:14.626
He'd probably be wide open.

01:08:14.626 --> 01:08:16.970
If you pass it to him, he's wide open.

01:08:17.069 --> 01:08:18.292
I trust him to make it.

01:08:18.292 --> 01:08:19.632
Trust him to make that.

01:08:19.632 --> 01:08:20.474
I like that.

01:08:20.474 --> 01:08:21.074
I like that.

01:08:21.074 --> 01:08:21.595
I like that.

01:08:23.980 --> 01:08:25.166
Shout out to Chatterpots.

01:08:25.802 --> 01:08:26.610
He was just cooking the.

01:08:26.631 --> 01:08:27.439
Lakers like two weeks ago.

01:08:27.439 --> 01:08:29.320
He was, he was, he fired us.

01:08:29.341 --> 01:08:32.360
That's why I'm a little bitter.

01:08:32.480 --> 01:08:35.561
One final thing before we bring Brandon on for the last take.

01:08:35.561 --> 01:08:37.643
Can't wait to hear Brandon's take on all this stuff.

01:08:37.643 --> 01:08:46.326
So Brandon's got his three-minute final recap, but let's go ahead quickly here it's running out of time and give our finals prediction.

01:08:46.326 --> 01:08:47.746
So now we are on record.

01:08:47.746 --> 01:08:50.367
Okay, we're going to talk about it next week at Kings.

01:08:50.367 --> 01:08:55.148
Okay, we're on record, diego, who you got in the finals facing off and who's winning.

01:08:56.328 --> 01:08:59.369
I got the Golden State Warriors versus the Boston Celtics.

01:08:59.369 --> 01:09:01.369
Just like 2022.

01:09:01.369 --> 01:09:06.731
And just like 2022, we're going to beat them Because we got both of their owners in the team.

01:09:06.731 --> 01:09:09.372
Steph owned them three years ago.

01:09:09.372 --> 01:09:10.813
Beat them in the finals.

01:09:10.813 --> 01:09:11.033
Beat Udoka.

01:09:11.033 --> 01:09:11.552
Beat all the crew.

01:09:11.552 --> 01:09:12.253
Jimmy Butler two years ago.

01:09:12.253 --> 01:09:12.734
Beat him in the finals.

01:09:12.734 --> 01:09:13.474
Beat Udoka, beat all the crew.

01:09:13.474 --> 01:09:15.194
Jimmy Butler two years ago.

01:09:15.194 --> 01:09:18.635
Beat the Boston Celtics in seven to go to the NBA finals.

01:09:18.635 --> 01:09:20.796
You pair both of those guys together.

01:09:20.796 --> 01:09:22.997
Oh boy, that's just.

01:09:22.997 --> 01:09:24.056
You can't stop that.

01:09:24.056 --> 01:09:26.257
You just can't stop it.

01:09:26.257 --> 01:09:28.658
I don't see how you stop it.

01:09:28.658 --> 01:09:30.378
We're going to submit you to be drug tested.

01:09:30.378 --> 01:09:34.443
And then look at the matchups the Rockets easy Lakers.

01:09:34.443 --> 01:09:36.345
We just beat them two weeks ago.

01:09:36.345 --> 01:09:38.606
They're too small, they can't mess with us.

01:09:38.606 --> 01:09:41.710
Yeah, we beat that.

01:09:41.710 --> 01:09:42.430
Yeah, we beat them.

01:09:42.430 --> 01:09:46.014
Then, western Conference Finals OKC.

01:09:46.014 --> 01:09:48.655
They're too young, they don't have enough experience.

01:09:48.655 --> 01:09:53.150
We beat them and you're too old.

01:09:53.150 --> 01:10:05.060
We have all the experience and we have two amazing playoff players okay, so the Warriors is going to be Warriors Celtics 2022.

01:10:06.890 --> 01:10:08.197
Warriors win the championship.

01:10:08.197 --> 01:10:08.800
Is what you're saying.

01:10:08.800 --> 01:10:12.420
Okay, yeah all right, okay, all right, okay.

01:10:12.420 --> 01:10:13.923
Well, one homer, one homer to a next, all right, chris, what you're saying?

01:10:13.923 --> 01:10:14.265
Okay, yeah, all right, okay, all right, okay.

01:10:14.265 --> 01:10:17.784
Well, uh, one Homer, one Homer to a next, all right.

01:10:17.824 --> 01:10:18.648
Chris, listen.

01:10:18.648 --> 01:10:21.127
So I know this whole.

01:10:21.127 --> 01:10:28.127
This whole season I've been hedging my bets, but I after after seeing Luca that Dallas game, I'm sorry.

01:10:28.127 --> 01:10:30.583
I feel like this is revenge season.

01:10:30.583 --> 01:10:33.872
I need a Saquon Barkley level type run.

01:10:33.872 --> 01:10:36.228
I need the NBA translation for that.

01:10:36.228 --> 01:10:44.112
So Luka is going to turn up, Could potentially be finals MVP when we beat the Celtics in seven games.

01:10:44.112 --> 01:10:46.667
That's my finals prediction.

01:10:47.462 --> 01:10:48.346
At least you're not hiding me.

01:10:48.761 --> 01:10:49.971
I'm not hiding that at all.

01:10:49.971 --> 01:10:50.993
I'm sitting ten toes.

01:10:52.222 --> 01:10:56.135
We called this weeks ago a month ago, we told you what you were going to do.

01:10:56.135 --> 01:10:56.658
We have your week.

01:10:56.658 --> 01:10:58.351
I was like no, I'm nervous.

01:10:59.185 --> 01:10:59.872
Now, oh yeah.

01:11:00.140 --> 01:11:01.466
We can set it all time high.

01:11:02.079 --> 01:11:07.222
Now, Chris, you do realize that the Lakers are not going to play the Brooklyn Nets in the playoffs.

01:11:07.222 --> 01:11:07.722
I don't know.

01:11:07.963 --> 01:11:09.243
Okay, I'm not scared.

01:11:09.243 --> 01:11:11.104
I'm not scared, I'm not back and down.

01:11:11.104 --> 01:11:13.126
Them tears moved me.

01:11:13.126 --> 01:11:15.528
I don't know if they moved anybody else, but they moved me.

01:11:15.528 --> 01:11:18.088
Let's go, let's do it, okay, mark.

01:11:18.970 --> 01:11:23.112

Yes, I do, sga is going to make his way to the NBA Finals.

01:11:42.583 --> 01:11:45.694
They will beat the LA Lakers in the Western Conference Finals.

01:11:45.694 --> 01:11:47.886
They will make it to the NBA Finals.

01:11:47.886 --> 01:11:53.363
In the East, I've got the Boston Celtics.

01:11:53.363 --> 01:11:55.067
Yes, yes, I do, yes.

01:11:55.087 --> 01:11:55.828

01:11:55.828 --> 01:11:56.029
Yes, whoa.

01:11:56.029 --> 01:11:56.250
Yes, I do.

01:11:56.250 --> 01:11:57.153
You've been with the Cavs all year.

01:11:57.153 --> 01:11:58.275
Yes, I do, you've been with the Cavs all year.

01:11:58.275 --> 01:11:58.617
What are you?

01:11:58.657 --> 01:12:01.747
doing that, my friends, was a diversion.

01:12:01.747 --> 01:12:12.302
Okay, that was a simple diversion, all right, couldn't let you guys know where I was going, Okay, but now I'm putting my cards on the table, putting my money where my mouth is.

01:12:12.302 --> 01:12:18.546
Yes, I've got the Boston Celtics going to the finals, okay, so it will be Boston OKC.

01:12:18.546 --> 01:12:26.710
And, ladies and gentlemen, we all know, we all know, I've been riding with this squad and I'm riding with them again have you?

01:12:26.729 --> 01:12:27.010
Not at all.

01:12:27.010 --> 01:12:33.853
I've got the Boston Celtics, my Celtics, winning the NBA championship.

01:12:33.853 --> 01:12:35.213
Yes, that's right, chris.

01:12:35.213 --> 01:12:36.413
Yes, that's right.

01:12:36.413 --> 01:12:39.595
All my Boston Celtics fans, I am back.

01:12:39.595 --> 01:12:42.237
Okay, you can get married twice.

01:12:42.237 --> 01:12:43.438
Yes, you can.

01:12:43.438 --> 01:12:45.337
You can marry the same person, okay.

01:12:45.337 --> 01:12:51.693
So, and in case anybody wants to question my allegiance to Boston see, I came prepared.

01:12:51.693 --> 01:12:54.841
I came prepared for this episode, alright.

01:12:54.841 --> 01:13:08.212
So if you want to question my allegiance to the Boston Celtics, that is me at the 2022 finals with Diego, repping my Boston Celtics shirt and the chain Okay, alright.

01:13:08.212 --> 01:13:12.845
That is me wearing the Boston Celtics shirt and the chain on a Pick'em Pro episode.

01:13:12.845 --> 01:13:15.078
Okay, that is me wearing the Boston Celtics shirt and the chain on a Pick'em Pro episode.

01:13:15.078 --> 01:13:20.552
Okay, that is me repping the Boston Celtics shirt, picking the Boston Celtics.

01:13:20.552 --> 01:13:23.564
Yes, ladies and gentlemen, yes, where have you?

01:13:23.604 --> 01:13:24.836
been for the last three years.

01:13:24.836 --> 01:13:26.747
You listen to that outside.

01:13:27.000 --> 01:13:29.108
Where were you when they actually won the thing?

01:13:29.188 --> 01:13:31.564
There, that doesn't matter.

01:13:31.564 --> 01:13:33.470
Okay, all right, okay, I right Okay.

01:13:35.564 --> 01:13:37.570
I was in another relationship at the time.

01:13:37.859 --> 01:13:45.845
But now I am back, okay, and now we are going to make it right, because everybody see, there was something missing when Boston won it last year.

01:13:45.845 --> 01:13:47.005
It was kind of dull.

01:13:47.005 --> 01:13:56.324
Everybody will admit that the playoffs were fantastic until they got to the finals, and the reason why it wasn't as exciting is because I wasn't with the celtics.

01:13:56.324 --> 01:14:00.140
Something was missing, hey, but now I am with the celtics.

01:14:00.140 --> 01:14:08.546
So when they win it this year, it will be sweet tatum, you're finally gonna get your respect, because now I'm on board with you, okay.

01:14:08.546 --> 01:14:10.953
So, tatum, do it for us.

01:14:10.953 --> 01:14:12.537
All right, don't let me down.

01:14:12.537 --> 01:14:16.087
We got the boston celtics winning the championship this year.

01:14:16.087 --> 01:14:16.990
All right, there we go.

01:14:17.260 --> 01:14:19.569
The thing is that you don't make bad picks.

01:14:19.569 --> 01:14:21.987
You don't make bad picks.

01:14:21.987 --> 01:14:25.930
It's that you're either way too early or you're way too late with it.

01:14:25.930 --> 01:14:29.649
It's like you can't actually pick the team when they're winning.

01:14:29.649 --> 01:14:33.329
It's just I don't get it, man.

01:14:33.329 --> 01:14:33.835
Come on, get a're winning.

01:14:33.835 --> 01:14:34.444
Like it's just I don't get it, man.

01:14:34.444 --> 01:14:40.417
Like, come on, like get a, get a pick right when it's actually happening well, I, I am going to be right as it's happening this year.

01:14:40.921 --> 01:14:44.707
okay, I am obviously not too early, I'm not going to be too late.

01:14:44.707 --> 01:14:49.864
Okay, I see, I saw everything in the celtics earth, so I was ahead of the game, okay.

01:14:49.864 --> 01:14:52.711
And then I, then I got caught up, all right Last year.

01:14:52.711 --> 01:14:54.453
Okay, I had a moment, okay.

01:14:54.453 --> 01:15:02.006
But now I am back and I realize none of y'all picked the Celtics, so you can't, you can't say I'm back when nobody else is picking the Celtics.

01:15:02.006 --> 01:15:04.738
I see it, I've got those instincts.

01:15:04.738 --> 01:15:06.407
I am picking the Boston Celtics.

01:15:06.407 --> 01:15:08.086
Celtics are going to win the championship.

01:15:08.086 --> 01:15:15.940
I got got it all right.

01:15:15.940 --> 01:15:16.462
All right, let's go okay.

01:15:16.462 --> 01:15:18.164
So with that, let's bring my man, brandon.

01:15:18.164 --> 01:15:19.386
Brandon, what's going on, my man?

01:15:20.207 --> 01:15:20.828
what's going on?

01:15:20.828 --> 01:15:26.904
Hey how you doing I'm good, I'm doing good oh, awesome, awesome, man.

01:15:26.965 --> 01:15:30.311
So, hey, man, we got the brandon final take, brandon minute.

01:15:30.311 --> 01:15:37.685
Man, why don't you take us out, my man, and and just say tell us we got a whole bunch here, so we got the three minutes.

01:15:37.685 --> 01:15:48.269
Why don't you go ahead and tell us who you got in the championship, give us your take on Steph and Jimmy Butler last second.

01:15:48.269 --> 01:15:49.771
Why don't you just go for it, my man?

01:15:52.100 --> 01:15:56.284
So I do have Warrior Celtics in the finals.

01:15:56.284 --> 01:16:00.444
Ooh With the egg, I can see.

01:16:00.444 --> 01:16:07.444
Yeah, instead of Steph getting finals MVP, I can see Jimmy may get finals MVP.

01:16:09.430 --> 01:16:10.251
Ooh.

01:16:10.372 --> 01:16:11.514
As long as we win.

01:16:11.514 --> 01:16:13.505
Yeah, that's true.

01:16:13.505 --> 01:16:25.171
Let me think well, mvp, I'm still going with Jokic.

01:16:25.171 --> 01:16:27.457
Oh, you still got.

01:16:27.457 --> 01:16:27.760
Okay.

01:16:27.760 --> 01:16:30.173
Yeah, I'm still going with Jokic.

01:16:30.173 --> 01:16:34.730
It's close, because I see what Shea was doing.

01:16:34.730 --> 01:16:40.770
Yeah, it's like I feel like somebody's going to get screwed out of MVP.

01:16:40.770 --> 01:16:47.971
Either it's going to be Shea or Jokic, so I'm going to go with Jokic.

01:16:47.971 --> 01:16:54.206
Okay, I feel like Jokic has arguably been the best player in the last five years, other than Giannis.

01:17:03.247 --> 01:17:04.551
What about KD's next team?

01:17:06.899 --> 01:17:08.125
KD's next team.

01:17:08.125 --> 01:17:14.648
Yeah, I have OKC still as their favorite.

01:17:14.648 --> 01:17:28.689
Okay, houston being I've heard Houston, but I can't see Houston letting go of their young core.

01:17:28.689 --> 01:17:33.930
Yeah, so I can see why they probably like, probably hesitated to pull the trigger.

01:17:33.930 --> 01:17:39.868
Okc only does this if Jalen Williams is not part of the deal.

01:17:39.868 --> 01:17:45.836
If he's not part of the deal, they could probably pull the trigger.

01:17:45.836 --> 01:17:48.408
Win or lose, I think they'll pull the trigger.

01:17:48.408 --> 01:17:52.828
If they win the title, I don't think they pull the trigger.

01:17:52.828 --> 01:17:54.658
But if they lose in the conference finals or the second round, don't think they pull a trigger.

01:17:54.658 --> 01:17:57.180
But if they lose in the conference finals or the second round, I think they pull a trigger.

01:17:57.180 --> 01:18:11.827
So for his deep book, I'm still either it's still either the Knicks or probably the Pistons yeah so it's looking look at that.

01:18:12.087 --> 01:18:26.185
Or if Miami somehow gets rid of Tyler Hero and a bunch of players, maybe Miami I can see Miami kind of looking at players like either Book or Giannis or even KD.

01:18:26.185 --> 01:18:33.873
So it depends on what a lot of these teams does in the playoffs who gets bounced first or second round.

01:18:33.873 --> 01:18:38.811
That's when it kind of determines, like who should make moves and stuff like that.

01:18:38.811 --> 01:18:42.149
So it should be interesting.

01:18:42.149 --> 01:18:53.024
It's going to be an interesting playoff series, both in just in sports in general, for as the NBA and hockey of course, yeah, all the way through Okay.

01:18:53.125 --> 01:18:55.726
All right, and does Cooper Flagg come back?

01:18:59.841 --> 01:19:03.046
I say no, I think you just got to.

01:19:03.046 --> 01:19:05.132
You don't want to risk injury?

01:19:05.132 --> 01:19:13.163
Okay, and knowing him, he probably just going to declare yeah, it's either.

01:19:13.163 --> 01:19:20.065
I'm saying either the Wizards get the first pick or the Jazz, but I'm leaning towards.

01:19:20.065 --> 01:19:27.506
I would say the Wizards would end up being the number one pick in the NBA draft.

01:19:27.506 --> 01:19:28.930
Okay, all right.

01:19:29.581 --> 01:19:30.023
I like it.

01:19:30.023 --> 01:19:32.587
I like it, can't wait to see Brandon.

01:19:32.587 --> 01:19:35.606
Well, thanks for giving your final take here.

01:19:35.606 --> 01:19:37.070
We appreciate that, my man.

01:19:37.070 --> 01:19:41.051
We will be at King's next week and then back in the studio the final week.

01:19:41.051 --> 01:19:43.847
So we will see you again in two weeks, my man.

01:19:44.770 --> 01:19:46.242
Okay, all right.

01:19:46.242 --> 01:19:46.944
All right, thank you.

01:19:46.944 --> 01:19:50.103
Thank you, all right.

01:19:50.765 --> 01:19:51.668
All right, fellas.

01:19:51.668 --> 01:19:54.828
Well, hey, man, it's time to get out of here.

01:19:54.828 --> 01:19:59.445
We're over time, so let's go ahead and get on out of here, man, you guys ready for next week?

01:19:59.445 --> 01:19:59.766
Yes?

01:19:59.766 --> 01:20:02.819
Sir man it's going to be crazy.

01:20:02.819 --> 01:20:05.389
So, yes, again five tickets left.

01:20:05.389 --> 01:20:07.346
You want to go ahead and jump on that now.

01:20:07.346 --> 01:20:11.463
Those are going as we speak, so we will see you again next time.

01:20:11.463 --> 01:20:15.251
Until then, pick them, pros, we're out.

01:20:16.854 --> 01:20:19.567
Take us out in style, chuck.

01:20:19.760 --> 01:20:21.426
Going back for that nostalgic feel.

01:20:21.426 --> 01:20:25.569
And you don't have to go home, but you have to get out of here.

01:20:25.630 --> 01:20:28.284
So let's play this song Bounce, bounce.

01:20:28.305 --> 01:20:36.345
Put your hands up, put your hands up, put your hands up, put your hands up, put your hands up, put your hands up, put your hands up, put your hands up Whoa.

Oh man, I gotta get it in the worst way.

01:20:37.807 --> 01:20:40.350
I'm talking gold around my neck like I'm in first place.

01:20:40.350 --> 01:20:45.534
I'm talking I mean, it's like it's her day and all my homies got my back like a vertebrae.

01:20:45.534 --> 01:20:53.070
These knuckleheads going global with my shirt say she let me for it for her first day date and I ain't going back and forth.

01:20:53.070 --> 01:20:55.881
If it's her first date and getting money, we ain't worried bout her heartbreak.

01:20:55.881 --> 01:21:06.847
Look, she don't want no other guy Feeling like, yay, i'ma touch the sky, sipping on my wet, rolling up the side, married to the game, I don't wanna bribe Whoa, whoa.

01:21:06.847 --> 01:21:14.936
She don't want no other guy Feeling like, yay, i'ma touch the sky, yeah, sippin' on my wet, rollin' up his eye, married to the game.

01:21:14.936 --> 01:21:16.542

01:21:16.882 --> 01:21:19.130
Look, I think it's about time to go.

I think it's about time to go.

01:21:21.206 --> 01:21:22.149
I think it's time to go.
