What's up, everybody? Welcome back to the Draymond

1:42

Green Show. We are back after another

1:45

Dubs home loss.

1:49

Very specific about home because we sum

1:51

for some reason can't get home games

1:54

figured out. But

1:56

we'll get into that. We'll

1:58

talk about the last couple Dubs game. Actually,

2:01

also there's a new podcast that's popped

2:03

up that we're going to discuss a little bit.

2:06

But before that, remember the subscribe to our

2:08

2:10

2:13

you subscribe there as well, but

2:15

make sure you subscribe to our YouTube channel

2:17

and get everything from the Draymond Green Show

2:19

right there. Appreciate

2:22

the support on that, but let's get into it.

2:25

Since after a game, I am tired I'm sure

2:27

I'm ready to go to sleep, but I got you before

2:30

I do.

2:31

The Doves beat the.

2:32

Lakers one twenty one since

2:34

we last talked, uh, and

2:37

then we lost the night to the Knicks one nineteen

2:39

to one twelve.

2:41

It's tough defending Jalen Brusting.

2:43

If I'm honest, I actually prefer

2:45

to defend him more in ISO than

2:48

a pick and roll.

2:49

He's so crafty, man.

2:51

You start adding a screen a pick

2:53

and roll with Jaylen Bruston, and

2:55

he's coming downhill and he's got all the

2:57

pivots and side steps and drawing files,

2:59

and he uses his body great. He finishes

3:02

well. Jaylen Brunston is a three

3:04

level scorer. He can finish at the rim, he can finish

3:06

in the mid range. He got a floater, he got a three.

3:08

He gotta pull up like he score

3:10

at all levels. And so

3:13

me personally, I'd rather guard

3:15

him one on one than

3:18

guarding him in the pick and roll. Guarding him in the pick

3:20

and roll is tough, almost impossible,

3:23

and like you're blitten. But the thing is

3:25

with most guys, when you blitz him, they get sped

3:27

up, they get off the ball.

3:28

He never gets sped up.

3:29

He plays at his own place, so like, even if he

3:31

blitz like, he's

3:33

not really trying to go somewhere. He's

3:35

just going to wait till the floor opens up and then

3:38

he's gonna make his move. And

3:42

interestingly enough, uh, you

3:45

know, it works every night, and

3:47

he is playing at an all NBA level.

3:50

It's good to see him getting his due that he's

3:52

getting.

3:53

I think, you know, for I played Jaylen Brunson

3:55

we did in the playoffs a couple of years ago

3:58

with Dallas. That is a totally different player. And

4:00

by the way, he was really good then, so I'm not gonna

4:02

act like he was a bombed in and just like who

4:04

he is now. He was really good then, so

4:07

much so that in that playoff series he was

4:09

actually my matchup. He was their starring

4:11

guard, but I matched up with him that playoff

4:13

series because he was that good. So

4:16

he's been good. I'm not sure any

4:18

of us thought he'd be this. It's

4:21

been fun to watch. JB is

4:23

one of those guys that you cheer for because

4:25

he's humble. He's the second

4:28

round pick as

4:30

National Player of the Year. I

4:34

know what that feel like, but

4:37

he's humble. It's been

4:40

beautiful. You know, watch his dad get

4:42

a chance to coach him in the NBA, challenging

4:46

him in the NBA. Like I've seen a couple

4:48

of clips where he started complainings that like shut up, man,

4:50

go play like like man,

4:53

that's so dope, So happy

4:55

for Rick Bruston and Jalen Man. What

4:57

they doing over there with the Knicks

4:59

and the Apple absolutely

5:01

incredible to watch. And

5:04

then his his his one of his Villanova

5:07

buddies, Josh Hart

5:09

is playing out of his mind. And when I

5:11

say out of his mind, I don't mean that in a disrespectful

5:14

way.

5:14

I don't mean that he's not capable.

5:17

But like I think Josh Hart's got like four

5:19

triple doubles in the last two weeks, two or three

5:21

weeks or something like that.

5:22

He never had one before the season, exactly.

5:25

You know, so he's playing incredible

5:27

basketball. More

5:30

you look at that trade last year.

5:32

They gave him away for a pack

5:34

of peanuts, and it's

5:37

been a great addition. And you

5:40

know, Josh does all the little things.

5:42

He rebounds, he passes, he defends,

5:45

he pushes the tempo. He definitely

5:48

offensive, I said rebound offensive

5:50

rebound in particular, he's crashing the glass

5:53

every single time. Just the energy bleings to the

5:55

floor. He played forty eight minutes tonight.

5:57

You couldn't tell he played forty eight minutes. He never

5:59

seemed to be tired one time. Gotta

6:03

get give give them guys their credit. And then the other

6:06

Villanova buddy, which

6:08

is my guy, Devo, Dante Devincenzo.

6:12

Uh, he's playing well. And I think the beautiful

6:14

thing about what Dante is doing. They're just letting Dante

6:16

play like Dante, you go

6:19

play, you figure it out. He's knocking shots down,

6:21

he's hitting floaters, he's play making. Uh,

6:23

them boys look good. Gotta gotta take

6:26

your hat off to him regards all the injuries

6:28

that they've been dealing with. They are playing

6:30

at a very very high level. And

6:32

it starts with the head of the Snake Jalen Brunson

6:36

and then Josh Hart and Dante

6:39

and Miles McBride got off tonight. But those

6:41

three guys in particular, Uh,

6:43

they're doing it night in and night out,

6:46

and it's you know, hate to be on

6:48

the wrong end of it, but

6:51

like I said, they Jaylen Brunton

6:53

in particular, extremely extremely

6:55

tough guard and he gave us hell tonight. The

6:58

Knicks loss is our third rate

7:00

loss at home, which again.

7:05

I don't quite understand.

7:07

We seem to be playing a lot better and

7:09

more connected on the road than we

7:11

are at home, and

7:14

that's a problem because we

7:16

keep kind of having this week at home, week

7:18

on the road, week at home week on the road, and it'll

7:20

pretty much be like that through the end of the year, and

7:23

we're going on the road and covering ground and

7:25

then just giving it all back at

7:28

home, which is frustrating because obviously

7:30

we all I don't need to continue to talk

7:32

about the play in and playoff race.

7:35

We all know what's at stake and what's

7:37

there and.

7:38

If you can go on the road and win these tough games,

7:41

then you should be able to come home

7:43

and dominate your home court. And yet

7:45

we sit here at seventeen and eighteen at home

7:48

this year, and

7:51

it's honestly, it's unacceptable.

7:53

If I had an answer for you what's

7:56

happening, I would one

7:58

thousand percent not give

8:00

you the answer, but actually give the answer to my team

8:03

and then tell you how we did it. But we

8:05

can't seem to figure it out.

8:09

And you know, it's like when you're

8:11

at home, you like you

8:15

should feed off the energy from the crowd.

8:17

You should, you know, everybody should play

8:19

better when you're at home, and that's

8:21

just not happening for us.

8:25

So what are they fourteen

8:27

games left? Yeah?

8:30

About fourteen games thirteen or fourteen games

8:32

left. Got to figure it out at some point because

8:35

these games are very critical to this race,

8:38

and you can't keep taking one step forward

8:40

two steps back, and that's what we

8:42

keep doing. So we got two more games on this current

8:45

homestad Wednesday

8:47

versus the Grizzlies Friday versus

8:49

the Pacers, two very

8:51

winnable games, yet

8:54

two young, scrappy teams.

8:57

Pacers in particular, play fast as hell

9:00

as we know. The Grizzlies

9:03

are playing with nothing to lose. They got so many

9:05

guys out, those guys that are playing just

9:07

going out there and playing basketball

9:09

free, no concerns,

9:11

and you know they took sack to

9:14

overtime tonight, so won't

9:17

be easy games. But if

9:20

we go play our brand of basketball,

9:23

they're actually very winnable games.

9:26

So got to win the games that

9:28

you're supposed to win. Tough loss tonight.

9:30

Knicks are playing well, they're good. Still

9:32

a game that we should win, especially

9:35

at home, but

9:39

you have to win the games you're supposed to win and

9:41

try to steal a couple that you

9:43

probably not supposed to win. So

9:46

it'll be very important for us to close out this

9:48

homestand make sure we go

9:50

on this road on two oh well,

9:53

two game win streak and then going

9:55

into Minnesota, then Miami,

9:58

then Orlando.

9:59

Like this road trip is want to be a tough road trip.

10:02

However, I seem to worry less about the tough

10:04

road trips because we seem to play well.

10:06

On the road.

10:07

But you can't count on that. You

10:10

gotta take care of the games that you're supposed to take care

10:12

of. Minnesota's played great all year. They're

10:15

tough at home, they're tough anywhere. So got

10:19

to take care of these last two and put ourselves

10:21

in the best position that we possibly can.

10:24

We know what's at stake with the Laker

10:26

game. It was good to take a two

10:28

to one series lead, be

10:31

that that could come down to a tie. Let's

10:34

hope not, but it could, and

10:36

so it's good to take a.

10:37

Two to one lead.

10:38

We played them one more time, hopefully we'll be able

10:40

to take that album as well. But

10:45

in speaking of the Lakers,

10:48

as I said, we beat them one

10:52

nights ago, and before

10:56

the game, Ruy Hashimura said, I

10:59

probably is butcher Rui's last

11:01

name, so I apologize. But

11:04

Ruy said that this is pretty

11:06

much like a playoff game, and he was not lying.

11:09

They are in a position where every

11:13

game is like a playoff game. We're in a position

11:15

where every game is like a playoff game for us,

11:18

and you know, we were able to go take that game.

11:21

But that's definitely the feeling you have right now.

11:23

You know, being in the position that we're in, you don't get

11:25

the luxury of like resting and taking

11:28

it easy and not worrying about a loss like

11:31

everyone counts, every single one

11:33

of them matter.

11:33

And so.

11:36

Yes, we definitely felt the same way

11:38

Ruy felt, and I think we approached

11:40

that game with that type of intensity and we were

11:42

able to take the game. Ad left early

11:44

in that game with a eye.

11:47

Abrasion, a corneal abrasion.

11:49

I heard it was.

11:51

I was swollen shut for the

11:53

most of the game, so he was not

11:55

able to return, which, not

11:57

gonna lie, helps anytime you

11:59

don't have Anthony Davis on the floor

12:01

on the other side, it helps,

12:04

and so but nonetheless

12:06

happy to see Ad back out there tonight. The

12:08

last two minutes of that game had

12:11

to be the weirdest two

12:13

minutes or men

12:16

in the fifty or whatever you want of

12:18

all times. It took

12:21

twenty minutes to get through those last two minutes,

12:24

and honestly,

12:28

at the time, obviously we were up one

12:30

twenty four to one twenty because

12:33

Brin hit a crazy three in the corner,

12:35

which after review they said he

12:37

was out of bound so it didn't count, which made the score

12:39

one twenty four to one

12:42

seventeen, and.

12:47

They had the ball.

12:48

Uh, they're coming down now, men,

12:50

and in fifty seconds left, you

12:52

got the ball down seven, you come down

12:54

to hit a three, and that's a one twenty

12:57

four to one to twenty game. That is a totally different

12:59

ball game like that. So that you got a

13:01

game like that's a two possession ball game

13:04

with essentially probably three possessions

13:07

left. Yeah

13:11

give it, take two to three possessions left,

13:13

two possession ball game. And

13:15

after the long delay, it was just kind

13:17

of like, let's like game over, let's get

13:19

out of here. You know, after twenty minutes, everybody

13:21

stiff, you're

13:25

just over it because they can't figure it out.

13:27

And it was crazy because I

13:29

heard the roughs like right after as

13:32

soon as it happened. The

13:34

first time I heard maybe Mitchell say,

13:37

let's just go to the stopwatch, which

13:40

they ended up doing twenty minutes later. But

13:43

I was wondering, like, whose call is

13:45

that? Because I heard the referee say let's

13:48

go to the stopwatch?

13:49

So is that like the scorers.

13:50

Table call of Like, no, we got it as good

13:52

now, because there was also a

13:56

possession earlier in that game.

13:57

Maybe it was the third quarter, could have been

14:00

earlier in the fourth quarter.

14:01

But there was a possession in that game

14:03

where we actually got twenty eight seconds on the

14:05

shot clock because the shot clock had reset.

14:08

And I was saying in the game and I watched it went

14:10

in back twenty four and then it just

14:12

started taking and taking, and none of the referees

14:14

noticed it. And I

14:17

thought that was an interesting profession possession

14:20

because if the referees were to go

14:22

stop it, right, and then you go and

14:24

you look at the stopwatch and

14:27

the game and like sink all

14:29

these things up if you get to twenty

14:31

four seconds, like can you really give

14:33

us a shot clock violation because we're looking

14:35

at the shot clock right, So like, no,

14:38

I don't have to go get it, get a shot up because

14:40

there's twenty one seconds left on the shot

14:43

clock.

14:43

And so I thought that was a very interesting thing.

14:46

But that was clearly the beginning of

14:48

what we then learned

14:50

of a clock malfunction because

14:54

they just couldn't get it figured out.

14:56

And honestly,

14:59

I think we were gonna win the game, no problem,

15:01

like you know, we should close that game out,

15:03

but you can never be so certain,

15:06

and I think that really screwed the Lakers,

15:09

like they didn't stand a chance

15:11

after that, Like by

15:13

the time we start back playing and you

15:15

see their possession, it was awful. And Brian

15:18

end up scoring, but it was maybe

15:20

after like twenty seconds,

15:22

and he just tried and tried and tried,

15:24

tried and tried, and then he finally got you

15:27

know, lay up to go in, and.

15:29

But it was over.

15:30

Like the flow of

15:32

the game was going, like

15:38

everything the rhythm was off, like

15:40

I told you, everybody's stiff.

15:43

Like it was actually pretty crazy. I'll

15:46

take it, like we got.

15:48

To win, we closed the game out, but I

15:51

was also very shocked that like bron

15:54

Or d Ham didn't go crazy

15:56

og d Ham, y'all know that's my OG from

15:58

sag nasty. I

16:01

was surprised that they didn't go crazy because the

16:03

referees just kept taking, like they start the

16:06

clock and the

16:08

shot clock didn't start, and then they take

16:10

two seconds off the shot clock, but they're back there still,

16:13

and then they started, and then they took. Before

16:16

you knew it, they have fourteenth seconds

16:18

left on the shot clock. The

16:22

game clock at this point is ten

16:24

eleven seconds less than

16:27

what it was, and now they gotta

16:29

go get a possession. I would

16:31

have been furious, I must say, because

16:33

like, why are we losing time because they can't get

16:36

the clock right, like, so I

16:38

would have argued for that clock to go back to twenty

16:41

four.

16:41

I would have argued for the game clock to go.

16:43

Back, like let us take it all the way back

16:45

out back down there and let the closs go

16:47

back to where they should go.

16:49

That's what my argument would have been.

16:50

So I was very shocked there, like but that

16:54

everybody just kind of let it go. But

16:57

as I said, you also kind of get to a point where

16:59

you're like, yo, just get it out of here, Like it's

17:01

been twenty minutes to finish his last two

17:04

minutes down seven, but again

17:06

you hit a three four

17:08

point game and it's totally

17:10

different games.

17:11

So happy we got out there

17:13

with the win. That was weird.

17:16

I mean, figure something out, like don't I

17:18

thought all the arenas have like the little

17:20

shot clocks that can go like down in the corner

17:23

if something happened, but like figure

17:25

something else out. It was very also very

17:27

weird sitting there listening to a gouty go fifteen

17:30

seconds left on the shot clock, ten seconds left

17:32

on the shot clock, five seconds, five four

17:34

three.

17:35

That was also very weird.

17:37

Uh. And so after that, between the weirdness

17:39

of the clock and like the weirdness of listening

17:42

to someone.

17:43

Calmed down the shot clock, it

17:45

was over and we took out.

17:47

We took the dub.

17:49

Think we was gonna win anyway, as I said,

17:52

but you can never be so certain.

17:55

And I thought that was a tough break

17:57

for the Lakers.

17:58

In other news, there were a couple

18:00

of dunks in the land

18:03

of the NBA tonight that.

18:08

Arguably both dunks of the year uh.

18:11

Anthony Edwards number one UH

18:16

completely completely baptized

18:19

John Collins, made

18:22

him fall down to

18:24

the ground, made j C

18:26

grap his eye like

18:29

his eye was hurting, which listen, it could

18:31

be because I saw.

18:32

He has a head He has a head contusion, officially

18:35

official injury from that dunk.

18:37

Listen, even if you

18:39

have a head contusion from

18:42

the dunk, you can't announce that you have a head

18:44

contusion. Like just kind

18:46

of got a roll with it. I pray that he didn't

18:48

leave the game. Did he lead a game?

18:50

Jackson? I think he.

18:51

I think he did leave. Actually he only played twenty minutes.

18:53

So he left the game.

18:54

And you also can't leave after that, Like,

18:56

I'm sorry, I may be concussed,

18:59

but I at least got to go run up and down this court

19:01

five more times, like I mean for

19:03

a free from a few five more minutes.

19:05

Like you just.

19:06

Can't leave right after that, because

19:09

say this first, It's like we live in

19:11

a strange world, right, like weird world,

19:13

crazy world, Like what

19:18

if you never go in the game again and your last

19:20

seconds on the court was that? Like think

19:24

about it again, You just never know, Like

19:26

we live in a crazy world, and like basketball

19:29

can be a crazy sport and it demands so much

19:31

of the body, Like you just never know,

19:34

and so like what if that was your last sound like

19:36

you're going to be remembered like that, Like JC, you

19:38

can't leave a game, man, Come on, JC.

19:41

JC a high flyer.

19:43

Jcne had his fair share of putting

19:45

guys in that rim, like we've

19:47

seen them.

19:49

That man used to catch them.

19:50

Lives in Atlanta and like, don't

19:52

jump because you in the rim. Trey

19:55

Yon would put it to where only he could get it,

19:58

and he get it, and then whoever underneath

20:00

you dunk th on.

20:01

So we've seen JC catches fresh air of

20:03

bodies.

20:04

You can't lead the game, JC, You

20:06

just can't, man, Like it's

20:09

okay, you know it didn't go great,

20:12

like.

20:13

God Lee, that dunk was wild. Man.

20:17

Anthony Edwards gets like he

20:19

attempts like one of those maybe like

20:21

every four or five games

20:23

where he actually attempt those. He had one of the attempted

20:25

a couple of weeks ago on a d just

20:28

missed it. He

20:31

tried one like that on me before and

20:34

it didn't work out, thank God, Oh praise

20:36

be to God. But

20:40

that dunk, god

20:43

Lee, and then that man comes out and say that's the

20:45

best dunk of my career, like relaxing,

20:48

like we get it, Like.

20:51

You got the right, I guess, so do

20:53

what you do, young fella man.

20:54

That dunk is crazy and then Jalen

20:56

Johnson pretty much jumped over Austin

21:00

Reeves the poster. If you

21:02

go look at the NBA's Instagram account,

21:05

the poster is crazy because

21:07

like Austin Reeves's face is kind

21:09

of in the man's cross area and

21:14

that picture ain't going nowhere, like it's

21:17

there. It's stuck. And I'm

21:20

not gonna make fun of you, Austin, because

21:23

I'm still playing and I would hate for

21:25

that to happen to me, just like by

21:27

the way, JC, I'm over here talking, I ain't making

21:29

fun of you either, because it happens to the best of

21:31

us. But Jac, you still can't lead a

21:33

game, and Austin, some

21:37

guys you just don't set up for a charge

21:39

against. You gotta and you've

21:42

been in the lead long enough now you

21:45

gotta know that there's some guys

21:47

you better learn that rude of verticality

21:50

because even if you jump, at

21:52

least your head isn't stuck in the position

21:55

on the poster where it's at now, you know, like

21:57

if you jump and go vertical and he's still dunk

21:59

on you like that, like your

22:01

head positioning is different and it

22:04

all looks different, like, yeah, you got dunk on, but

22:06

like that's a different thing will happen Austin.

22:09

So y'all

22:11

better work on the rules of verticality with

22:13

Austin Reeves. So next time he see a

22:16

guy like Jalen Johnson coming

22:18

down that paint, he know exactly

22:20

where to go. That

22:22

was tonight. Now let's

22:25

discuss Kyrie Irving. Yesterday,

22:28

Kyrie Irvin decides

22:33

that he's going to take a running left

22:35

hand hook over the

22:37

outstretched arms.

22:39

Of the MVP.

22:41

Well he'll probably

22:43

be MVP this year, but he's definitely a two

22:46

time MVP joker.

22:48

And like.

22:51

That's the shot he went for, Like he didn't try

22:53

to like create a different like he

22:55

actually comes off like.

22:58

Boom boom, going into the left

23:00

the hook.

23:01

Like what's wrong with Kyrie? Kyrie

23:03

is crazy? And ironically

23:06

he had that shot yesterday. I was having a conversation

23:08

with a few friends the other day about how good

23:10

Kyrie that night before actually about.

23:13

How good Kyrie Irving is.

23:16

And I

23:19

actually said to a couple of friends

23:23

and like the world to take this and

23:25

like run with it and try and make it something

23:28

of what it's not when it's actually

23:30

a compliment.

23:30

Because anyway,

23:33

I said, Kyrie Irving.

23:37

Is the score scorer

23:41

that everyone the world

23:44

thinks of Kevin Durant,

23:46

And what I meant by that was it was like,

23:49

there are some things at times that you

23:51

can do to Kevin to

23:54

make it a little tougher on him. Why

23:57

because he's seven feet and

23:59

he handles the ball a lot. And if you

24:02

know, there are times where because he's

24:04

seven feet, if you time

24:06

it right, you can pressure up

24:08

and like press up into Kevin and

24:11

make things a little bit tougher. You know, he

24:14

have to turn his back or something and get him out

24:16

of just get him out of rhythm a little bit. But

24:19

like he's seven feet, so most guys that can

24:22

guard him out there when he's handling

24:24

the ball, it's not going to be seven feet because seven

24:26

footers don't move like Kevin Durant.

24:32

Kyrie Irving.

24:33

You can't do anything

24:35

to make it hard on, Like you can't

24:37

make the game tough for Kyrie. Like

24:40

he's one of the best three point shooters, he's

24:43

one of got one of the best mind rangers,

24:45

arguably, if not the best he

24:48

has. It's

24:50

arguably the best finisher in the NBA.

24:54

He has floaters with either hand.

24:56

As you can see by that he

24:58

can finish with either at the rim.

25:02

Kyrie can also switch and shoot a mid

25:04

range jump shot with his left hand, Like if you get

25:07

him in a bad way in the air, he can actually just

25:09

shoot it. Like there's

25:12

actually nothing you can do to

25:16

stop Kyrie from scoring. You just

25:18

try to do all you can to make him take a tough

25:20

shot, and then you gotta live with the results. But

25:22

Kyrie Irving, the way he scores the basketball,

25:25

the amount of things that he's capable of

25:27

doing.

25:30

Unbelievable.

25:31

I saw, I saw Damian Lillard

25:34

tweet, Dame Dollar tweet. Kyrie

25:36

Irvin is the most skilled player in NBA

25:38

history, And quite frankly,

25:42

I'm not sure who can argue against that. Like,

25:45

and even if you want an art and want to argue

25:47

against it, you

25:50

gotta argue your point. Like it's

25:52

not just like oh yeah, that person, Like, no, you

25:54

gotta argue why that's

25:57

how skilled Kyrie

25:59

Irv When there's like that, dude, he

26:06

got the game of basketball figured out, Like

26:11

when it comes to playing with the basketball,

26:13

he's got that figured out all

26:16

figured out. I mean.

26:19

That shot, yes, to even attempt that

26:21

shot.

26:22

Like you just like that's what he I want

26:25

you to understand he went for that

26:27

shot like this

26:29

is Kyrie irving he can come off and being bap

26:31

and like face. He went for that shot.

26:35

That to me, it's

26:38

crazier than anything. He went for

26:42

to run the hook with the left went

26:45

forward. That's

26:47

different man, that's different

26:49

guy. I take my hat off to

26:51

him.

26:54

That's unbelievable. Uh,

26:57

be believable. The

27:01

things that Kyrie is capable of, it's

27:06

unreal.

27:08

There's an argument.

27:09

Now me personally,

27:13

I may argue Steph Curry, Uh,

27:16

the most skilled player we have ever seen,

27:18

most talented, Uh, just some

27:21

things that he could do. But as

27:23

I said, before you have

27:25

an argument, it

27:27

has to be argued because.

27:30

The skill level unbelievable.

27:35

And before we get out of here, Lebron

27:37

James is starting a new podcast

27:40

with JJ Reddick and

27:43

the podcast is.

27:44

Called Mind the

27:47

Game, Mind the Game.

27:50

Uh. The podcast is

27:53

aimed at like.

27:56

Nerdy basketball fans, like

27:59

like like you, you love the x's

28:01

and o's of basketball,

28:03

and from what it looks like, they'll be just talking

28:06

X and o's, like pure basketball

28:08

conversation. I'm excited to check it out because

28:11

I love a great basketball

28:13

conversation and you don't get to have those

28:16

often with many people, and you definitely don't

28:18

get to wash them often.

28:20

So I'm excited to check it out.

28:22

I must say, I am a little upset

28:24

that Lebron James is like going on the podcast

28:27

and he still haven't been on the Draymond Green

28:29

Show. But

28:31

when it's your own thing, you kind of can't say

28:33

anything, So I guess I'll live with it for

28:35

now pick the bone with him that I got

28:37

to pick with him later. Nonetheless,

28:40

that is coming out tomorrow

28:42

and I am excited to check it out.

28:44

I hope you all are excited to check it out as

28:46

well.

28:47

JJ and Bron two of the best basketball

28:49

minds in the game today.

28:53

And when I say in the game, I mean speaking.

28:55

The game, playing the game, you name

28:57

it, two guys that we all I

29:00

really will enjoy watching

29:02

break down the game of basketball.

29:04

So y'all also make sure y'all go check that out.

29:06

That'll be fun to watch, and like I

29:08

said, I'm looking forward to it to see

29:10

two guys that know the

29:13

game the way those two guys know it and then

29:15

also aren't afraid to hear themselves talk.

29:18

I love it. Looking forward to it. Until

29:21
