Hey Hotties! 

So here's the thing about Caitlin Clark's injury last week the story doesn't quite add up. Her mom didn't even know she wasn't playing until 4:30pm. The league warned her team for not reporting it properly. And right before it happened, there's video of her snapping at her coach. I'm not saying she lied. I'm saying the timing is weird and nobody's talking about it.

Then we're getting into my NBA Finals predictions because they're literally happening next week. Some of these are controversial. Some of these might piss you off. But I'm sticking with them.

And because apparently I'm nosey as hell, Kylie and Jordan getting photographed together at the Knicks game gagged me. Are they actually cool again after 2019? Or is there still weird energy?

SPEAKER_01

Welcome back to the Hoops for Hotties Live Show. Today we are going to be talking about the NBA conference finals. We're going to be talking about Kylie and Jordan. We're going to be talking about all of the things. This is the sports classroom for the girls of the gays of the days and the shaman who don't admit they don't know anything about sports to learn about what's going on in the sports world. And I am so excited to bring you a great show today. First and foremost, I have to take attendance in the chat. So if you are awake and alive, please say present. Let me know where you're tuning in from, and let's have a great class today. As you can see on the board, I have my finals prediction, and it's looking a little scary for me right now. So we're gonna hope for the best. All right. ATL in the chat! ATL in the chat. Hell yeah. Hell yeah, that's my city. Y'all, first I'm going to speed through our hot girl headlines because when I say so much is going on in the sports world, I mean I feel like that's always the case, but it's it's extra insane this week with the NBA finals on horizon. We're gonna start in the W. Um, I'm gonna talk about Caitlin Clark, which always gets me death threats. But hey, it's the biggest story happening right now. Or if you don't already know about it, it's the story that I can't stop thinking about. Caitlin Clark, back injury or sneaky suspension. Caitlin Clark missed a game with back soreness, and the team got an official warning from the league for not listing her injury on the injury report prior to the game. She was a late scratch, and fans were literally walking into the arena when it was announced that Caitlin wouldn't be playing. Journalist Christine Brennan publicly questioned whether Caitlin was hurt at all, and Clark pushed back. She said she had every intention of playing. Her own mother didn't even know she was playing until around 4:30, the day of the game. It is against WNBA rules to not list players on the injury report on before 5 p.m. the day before the game. It helps fans who are coming to the game. It just helps everybody know what's going on. Even if they put that they're gonna arrest a player or that a player is sore, it is important that they let the league know and the fans know as early as possible, which is why they got an official warning from the league. This week she added that I don't think it's anything of concern when asked about managing her back. So you could see both sides, right? Caitlin's like, why would I not want to play? My back is literally hurt, leave me the fuck alone. She literally told the media, so do you want to know what I had for breakfast too? And it's like, it's like, bruh, okay, okay, Caitlin. But the interesting thing about the story is Eagle Eye fans pointed out that Caitlin had gone viral just before this back soreness situation where she was like sore for a day. She went viral for getting into an altercation with one of her assistant coaches. Yes, one of Caitlin's assistant coaches was trying to coach her, which is her job. Um, and Caitlin snapped at her. It the video was bad. Caitlin looks like a brat in the video. Okay, are you guys gonna make me beat around the bush about it? She she looks like a brat in the video. And this is also the same assistant coach. It seemed like it was the same assistant coach, that's what I thought. That her and Sophie Cunningham snapped at when she tried to get them to sit down during last year's playoffs in their bench mob era. Caitlin and Sophie Cunningham, MAGA Barbie, were like doing their crazy dances and cheers and like they were very active as bench mob while they were both hurt during the WNBA playoffs, which makes sense. Their team went far in the playoffs without them, and it was a super huge deal. And honestly, as much as I get on Sophie Cunningham and Caitlin Clark's cases, I would be doing the exact same shit. I'll be doing the exact same shit. I would probably be worse, so I don't even fucking care. But this is the same assistant coach that tried to tell them to sit down during a game because Rafs were like peeping Caitlin and Sophie doing the most, and they snapped at her then, and so Caitlyn snapping at her now is sus. And it also makes it worse that this coach is also a former WNBA player, a fever player that brought Indiana Championship. So it's not like this isn't somebody that you should be listening to. It's not like this is some random hater-ass assisted coach. Like, come on now. This is this is a blueprint for y'all. But I don't know. Y'all let me know in the chat if you think, if you think that Caitlin was actually hurt, or if she was secretly suspended because she yelled at coach. Because I think that it's interesting how we saw when Angel called out the sky last season, and not to compare these two, but this is genuinely what came to mind for like a behavioral issue. Angel was suspended for half a game against the Las Vegas Aces for speaking out against her team, basically saying we fucking suck when they did. And it's not unusual for teams to do that for them to suspend a player for like a disciplinary reason. And I could see why with a player like Caitlin Clark they wouldn't want to disclose that to the media. It's just this whole thing is a little bit fishy, but hey, I like this is all fan conspiracy theory, and I just thought it was interesting. So hey, I'm sure Caitlin's back is sore and ouch, but it is the timing is a little bit crazy. Now, moving on to the NBA conference finals. What I what I really want to get into with y'all because this has been the NBA playoffs, have been very interesting and starting a lot of very interesting conversations, and I'm gonna say some very interesting things about them. The New York Knicks swept the Cleveland Cavaliers, the number three Knicks swept the number four Cavs in the Eastern Conference Finals, their first finals trip since 1999. Game four was a 130 to 93 blowout, and they've won 11 games in a row and haven't lost in over a month. They own the best point differential over that stretch at plus 262. This basically means that the Knicks are not losing in the playoffs. They swept the 76ers and they now swept the Cleveland Cavaliers, and they are doing so at a rate where they are whooping ass. They are statistically whooping ass. They are statistically beating the shit out of their opponents. Moving on to the calves side of things, James Harden said in the post-game presser he thinks he played pretty good. Even though statistically he was like one of the worst playoff defenders in NBA history ever. Ever. James, what do you mean you think you played good? Like, what do you mean you think you played good? I mean, we've had some we had some tough series before that. Maybe we're just tired. I played good. What the fuck are we talking about, bro? This is why I called his ass Parsley. This is why I called his ass Parsley. Because, like, why are you why do you act like that? Why do you act like that? Why do you act like that? What do you mean I think I played good? If I were an NBA player and I got swept in a playoff series, and here's my thing, it's not that fucking hard. I need y'all to stop listening to your publicist and listen to me. Okay, listen to me. Be honest with the fan base. I sucked during these playoffs. I suck, even if you don't think you did. You you owe the fans that much. You got fucking swept in the in the conference finals. You couldn't even get one game. Fucking losers. I would go in that post-game presser and say, I was not good enough. I was not good enough. Because if I was, we would have at least taken one fucking game. And I am so sorry to have embarrassed my team like that, to have embarrassed my fans like that, to have embarrassed my bloodline like that. Because honestly, if I was gonna play like that, why the fuck do we go to the conference finals in the first place? We could have lost before now. I should have been better. And in this offseason, I'm going to make it my mission to do everything possible to make sure that this never happens to a team that I'm on. So long as you have me and a jersey on your team, I will make it my mission to make sure that you never experience this embarrassment and heartbreak again. How hard is it to say that? But how hard is it to say that? I mean, I don't know. I I know a lot of men have an aversion to saying sorry, but why would you go into the postgame and say you think you played pretty good? It's fucking weird. Donovan Mitchell, you know, he was out there by himself. He he seemed he was his answers were a little better to the questions, but he's going home to Coco Jones. He's a winner, anyways. Yay, Donovan! But the real embarrassment of this series, like the real culprit, the bitch that I want to fight is Kenny Atkinson. Look, I'm not a Cleveland Cavaliers fan. I don't give a fuck how y'all do, to be honest. Like, I don't care. And I said the whole playoffs, I didn't give a fuck about the Cavs. As interesting as it is to watch the Knicks blow through the Eastern Conference, I'm so like, I just don't give, I don't give a fuck. I want to see close games in the playoffs, I want to be at the edge of my seat. And the Cavs were giving me snooze fest. Even when they were winning, even when it was close, I didn't give a shit. I'm sorry. Y'all were so mad at me during that Toronto series, but that's neither here nor there. The real embarrassing ass bitch on the Cavs is Kenny Atkinson, their head coach. Because what the fuck do you mean, hot girls? Listen to this shit. Down 3-0 in the fucking Eastern Conference Finals. The head coach of the Cleveland Cavaliers says that the Cavs were, quote, analytically winning the series. We're two out of the three. We're two out of three in the expected score. You're analytically winning, you're analytically winning. Bitch, three, three-zero. That is the only analytic that should mean shit to you, Kenny, Kenneth. Three-zero. Only analytic that should matter. Nigga, you're losing. Don't give a fuck which way you slice it with your Excel spreadsheet. Losing. Losers. Do you know how fucking livid I would be as a player in that fucking locker room? And my coach is saying, my coach is saying analytically, well, you know what, guys? It's fine. Analytically, we're winning. Analytically, you're fired, bro. Or have you lost your fuck ass mind? That's why they played like that. That is exactly why they played like that, like fucking losers. They came out and they were lazy and they were letting guys blow past them and they were doing shit that it's just like you don't want to see that in the conference finals, and it's embarrassing for the NBA, it's embarrassing for them, and it's embarrassing for their bloodlines, truly. Nobody wants to see that shit. And for you to go in that fucking well, analytically, technically we're winning, technically 3-0. Technically, you ain't won shit, donut hole. What the fuck you mean analytically, we're winning the series? But despite fans demanding a firing after that stupid ass fucking shit he he pulled, the Cavaliers are expected to retain Atkinson per the athletic and ESPN's Shams Therania. Fun bonus to know about that. Josh Hart, responding to the analytics comment of it all, said analytics are like a lamppost to a drunk person. You can lean on it, but that don't mean it'll take you home. And I couldn't say it better myself. Also, sidebar, I don't know if you guys saw that Josh Hart was like pulling up to the post-game presser with a glass of wine and pulling up to the post-screen presser with a slice of pizza. I was like, that's so me. That's so me, that's so me, that's so me, that's so me, but it's like so corny at the same time. It's like, uh, Josh Hart and his pizza, like, I don't know. I would 100% do it, but the glass of wine, I was like, alright, bruh, you're taking this too far. A glass of Kemas at the post-game presser. I mean, please. Can we can we be serious? Now, what you all came, what you all came here for, right? Let's talk about the West. Right? Let's talk about the West. OKC versus the Spurs. It's delivering on exactly what we needed from this series, and thank God, since the Knicks swept the calves like they were fucking last night's rice that fell on the floor. I do want to start by congratulating Jared McCain. Congratulations to Jared McCain. Jared McCain was traded from the 76ers midseason. They said, Don't want him, you can fucking have him, OKC. And he got a Burberry trench coat and his first NBA playoff start. Shout out to Jared. When I saw he was starting, I was like, that's my friend. Like, guys, that's my friend. That's my friend. That's my friend. That's my friend. Like, I love that for him. His life took a fucking 180. Meanwhile, they're still crying over whether Joe Ellen Bede will he, won't he, bullshit, and getting swept in the fucking playoffs. He could go to his first NBA finals, and I love that for him. He is right now one of the only people on the Oklahoma City Thunder roster that hasn't annoyed me throughout these playoffs. They've all annoyed me to my like deepest core at some point for some reason. Chet Holmgren acting like the Charming Ultra Soft player of the fucking year. We're all Wimby, Wimby, oh my god, look at Wimby. And it's like, nigga, you're looking Wimby dead in his face. Like you are, I I used to affectionately call your ass White Wimby. And now you're looking like, oh my god, wait. I'm so caught off guard because I'm live on TikTok right now, and somebody just made fireworks go off on my live. Does that mean I made money? No, I'm not fucking fucking. But that really threw me off. That really threw me off. I wow. Gaked. Okay, moving on. Moving on. That was crazy. So, Chad Homegrim pissed me off for asking like the Shaman Ultra Soft player of the year, acting like he's not fucking looking Wimby Dad in his face. You, you should be the answer, bro. But thank God they have Hartenstein. Like Jesus Christ. And every time I joke that Hartenstein is black, people scream at me in my comments. And it's so funny. I know he's mixed with black, but that also shocked me. But I love to call him black on TikTok because men get so upset. He's not black. He's like a quarter black. And shut the fuck up, bitch. You don't know sports. Slow down, Samuel. But chat pissed me off the whole fucking series. That's your rival. That's your op. Well, bitch, absolutely not. Absolutely not. You competing with a bitch who ain't even in the same fucking league as you. That's like young Miami trying to compete with fucking Beyonce, bitch. I don't know why Young Miami just caught a straight. I like her. Wear my skimming ass, niggas at. But she she knows her lane. Third team all NBA. She knows her lane, you know. She just not. She's not Beyonce. She's not Beyonce. But then SGA. SGA. SGA. One of the worst parts about my job being a sports reporter is that I have to defend men on occasion. And rapport on good things that they do and try to allow the world to soak them in as what they are. Good things. Winning back-to-back MVPs. Things like that. And then I'm reminded of why I don't trust men. Because actually, I defended you. I defended you. I said, you know what? James Harden did it. And what did he get? He got his face on a hard remote gummy. He got contracts and money and praise and big booty strippers in Houston. He got a lot of praise for drawing fouls and whatnot. I defended you. I said, this is the blueprint. You know, drawing fouls, getting people to foul you is a skill. It's a basketball skill. And should he be punished? Should he be hung out to dry? Because he knows how to get people to foul him? Absolutely not. I defended you, Shea Gilgis Alexander. And here you are embarrassing me on the biggest stage. What the fuck is this? Broadway? What are you are you auditioning for fucking Chicago? Get off the floor! Get off the fucking floor! My brother told me a stat the other day about how SGA basically falls more than any player while shooting in NBA fucking history. Falls. He's always fumbling. And I'm like, this is basketball. This is one of the reasons I didn't want to fucking play basketball is I don't like bitches touching me. I don't like bitches touching me. I don't like people I don't know in my personal space. I don't want to be fucking touched. It's a part of basketball. So what do you mean you're falling? It looks so bitch made. It looks bitch made, bitch made, bitch made, bitch made. It looks like soccer. And I'm not watching the Eastern Conference, Western Conference, soccer bitch. I'm watching the NBA. And if you, bro, it's like he's trying to mop the floors. Why are you on the floor so fucking much? And I defended you. But it's like, is it just me or is it getting worse? It's getting worse. Is it just getting more noticeable or is it getting fucking worse? Is he playing on our faces? Is he like slowly breadcrumbing how much he can get away with it until he makes a whole fucking sourdough starter? I'm so irritated watching it. It's like it's not fun. It really isn't fun. And it's even more irritating to me because I know how talented he is. I know how talented SGA is. Like that mid-range is nasty. Nasty with a Bucci outfit. Nasty. He's very talented. He's efficient. He's so why are we like and and he's doing it because he's allowed to, he's able to, and he's he can get away with it. But are you really gonna push the limits until Adam Silver eventually has to make a fucking rule and has to be weird? And it just has to be another fucking thing that when I watch basketball, I gotta wait for the refs to deliberate on. I don't need that. I don't need the game to stop in the middle so the refs can watch back the tape and see, hmm, it did SGA push off of him? Hmm, did SGA did he actually foul him or did SGA just fall out for no fucking reason? What's not clocking to you, Shay Gilgis, Alexander? Huh? I like I am so and you know it could be one of those things where people don't like change, right? Because when Steph Curry was shooting threes from the locker room, people weren't people didn't like that either. People hate evolution in basketball. They really do. When anybody who said, I'm not even gonna look at the chat. I'm not even gonna look at the chat because chat, you guys know that when Steph and Clay, when them light skins were shooting the ball from the fucking outside stands, when they were shooting the ball from next door, they were shooting the ball from fucking Oakland Market and making it, bitches were so mad they were like, this isn't basketball, getting the fucking paint. All of these little guys shouldn't be fucking shooting from that far. And all of the kids come into basketball camp and they try to shoot from the logo, and it's like they're ruining basketball. And now everyone's like, staff, greatest ever staff, you're the greatest ever staff. So, like, I don't want to hear it. But are little kids now gonna go to basketball camp and just fall out on the floor for no reason, like a mop? Because they saw SGA do it. Is that just gonna happen? They're gonna get into Pee-Wee basketball camp and they're gonna be like, Coach, can you teach me how to fall? Like SGA. And he's just too good for that to be his legacy and his narrative. He is. It's gonna, if they if Oklahoma City goes to the finals, we're gonna have some uncomfortable conversations about SGA and the fact that he's a back-to-back MVP and a back-to-back champion that people don't wanna have because of this whole foul baiting bullshit. And I I quite frankly am tired of it. So I don't know. I don't want it to get to the point where Adam Silver has to make a rule. Everyone's looking at Adam Silver. Adam, do something! No. SG motherfucker they, how is you cool? Quit falling. Seriously, before you ruin the shit for all of us. Get your shit, get stay on your feet. Stay on your fucking feet. Sit 10 toes down, brother. Or I'm gonna need Adam. And you know, fines don't work on these NBA players. Adam's gonna have to go to the house and raid that closet. That's what I need Adam to do. He's gonna have to go up in that house and raid that closet. He's so he gonna have to he's gonna have to start cutting up minks in that closet. He gonna he should send Peter to SGA's house to go through his fur collection. That's what he should do. That's what he should do to warn him. I'm telling you, bro. But OKZ took game five at home, and now the Spurs are playing for their lives. The Oklahoma City Thunder beat San Antonio 127 to 114 in game five to take a 3-2 series lead. And game six is in San Antonio with the Spurs facing elimination and Wimby playing in his first elimination game. Wimby looks tired. He looks tired. He looks sleepy. He looks tired. I mean, fuck. The team literally relies on him. Like he it's kind of like the Avengers, except for it's just one guy. Like he can do everything. And doing everything, I would imagine, makes you tired. He's been he been going hard since the monks in China. Like the bull the guy is tired. Okay. So I'm hoping that Wimby musters up every ounce of strength. In that 7-6 body for tonight, and I think that he will, and we see a generational performance. But at the end of the day, I've come to terms with the fact that even though my prediction is Knicks Spurs, I don't care who comes out of the West. I don't. I really don't care who comes out of the West. I want the Knicks to win the championship. I am rooting for the Knicks. I'm rooting for the Knicks. I need to go get me a like blue t-shirt like Kylie Jenner or something because I want the Knicks to win the championship. I do. I think it would be beneficial for the NBA to have a guy like Jalen Brunson win a championship to have the Knicks be good again, to have the Knicks at the top of the mantle. I think they deserve it after the playoffs they had. And quite frankly, I'm kind of sick and tired of people fucking downplaying it. I am. There's a whole conversation to be had about the greatest playoff runs in NBA history. I will have to give that to 2016 LeBron. I know you're thinking, what about 1990? My birth year starts with a two-ho. My birthday, my birth year starts with a two-ho. I I can watch the replays all I fucking want. I can only speak to shit I seen with my own eyes. And I saw 2016 LeBron with my own fucking eyes. I went to a game like with my own eyes. And I was a LeBron hater pre-2016. I was a LeBron hater. I did not like that man. I was a hater. And a Steph Stan. But something about that, Cleveland! This is for you. It unlocks something deep down inside me. Like it unlocks something deep down inside me. To to dethrone that team, I don't think you bitches get it. Like, I don't think you bitches get it. That Warriors team was the best ever. Ever. Cleveland was down 3-1 in the finals, bitch. In the finals, bitch. I rewatch, you can go on YouTube and watch, I think it's the last two minutes or five minutes, I think it's the last five minutes of game seven of the 2016 NBA finals. And you can re-watch it on YouTube on the on the NBA's page. I watch that often. Just to feel things. I watch that often. And I was rooting for the Warriors, and I still like to re-rewatch it. Blocked by James! What? So that to me is the best finals run ever. I don't give a fuck. But the Knicks don't get to pick who they play. The Knicks don't get to pick who they fucking play. And maybe if some of these players wise the fuck up and didn't want to live on a house in the hills and fucking Phoenix and LA and they weren't so focused on doing Nike shoots and whatever the fuck. All the other off-the-court shit that comes with being on the West Coast, and they would wise up and say, hmm, maybe shit would be better for me on the East, then we wouldn't have this problem. But it's not the Knicks' fucking fault that they're a good team in a conference that is, hmm. And that's why I want the Knicks to win. Because shut the fuck up with this whole the Knicks that oh my god, it was so easy. Their playoff run was so easy. This isn't even top 10 best playoff runs of all time. They are beating people's fucking asses. It's not close. It's not close. Is it interesting? Absolutely not, but that makes it even fucking better what they're doing. Do you know how insane that is? They lost to Atlanta a couple times and they said, we're not losing again. Like, let's just get this playoff shit the fuck over with. That's why I need them to win the finals because Knicks, if you are listening to this, they don't respect you. You they don't respect you, and no one expects you to win the finals. They they're like, well, whoever comes out of the West is gonna be better. Wimby's fucking gassed. That's first of all. Wimby's fucking exhausted. The Knicks been resting. They can go to Cancun in between their playoff series. That's how quick they're winning. They can go to Cancun on a vacation real quick in between how much fucking rest they have. Meanwhile, they're watching all their opponents on the West beat each other's fucking asses. So I just think it's interesting that everyone wants to use it as a knock on the Knicks. Well, they were playing these people and these people. Well, they don't get to pick who they play, they only get to pick how well they handle business. And matter of fact, they handle that shit. They don't get to pick who they play, they only get to pick if they win and how convincingly they win. And they've been winning pretty convincingly to me. It's easy. Good teams, great teams. Do it all the time. Drop a game because of something fucking stupid or mental or whatever. The Knicks went boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, bitch. So, did you see what they did to my Atlanta Hawks in our city? I don't want to talk about it. But I think get off the Knicks' fucking dick. I think that they need to win the I think they need to win the championship. Also, it helps the NBA because it kind of makes the conferences seem like they both have good teams and it's not just like lopsided to the West, all the competition. I'm rooting for the Knicks to win the finals. I don't care who comes out of the East and out of the West, and I'm damn sure not rooting for the fucking Oklahoma City Thunder, which hurts me because I would love to see Jared McCain win a championship in his first year with OKC and do great things. He is actually like the only likable one to me right now. All of them other dudes are pissing me the fuck off. They really are. I'm irritated at OKC with all that falling and shit. It's SGS. You can't walk up in the game and be dressed like you're on a fucking Balenciaga runway and then and then fall the whole game. You ugh. Now, last headline I want to get into really quickly is AZ Fudd's breakout game because we've talked so much about her not starting, and it seems like she's warming up. She's heating up, y'all. The number one overall pick scored a career high 24 off the bench in Dallas's 91 to 76 win over the Liberty, going six of 12 from three and breaking or tying? A woo a wings rookie record. Shoot. Coach Halo Jose Fernandez's quote is the headline. I think now everyone knows why we took her number one. Shout out to Aisy for having her breakout game, being who we all knew you to be, bitch. And I'm excited for her. This is only the beginning. Now, let's move on to tea time. Let me take a sip of my water, bitch. Yep, I'm gonna do it. I'm gonna talk about Donald Trump. Fuck! I hate that guy. It's tea time, and the first thing I want to talk about is Donald Trump. Donald Trump. Uh, he's getting introduced. Let me shit. Let me fucking read it off my notes because I'm so irritated. Okay. Jackson Dart, the quarterback for the uh Giants, introduced Trump at a rally in Soffern, New York on May 22nd.

SPEAKER_00

What a privilege it is to be here. And without further ado, I'm grateful, I'm honored, I'm pleasured to introduce the 45th and 47th president of the United States of America, President Donald J. Trump.

SPEAKER_01

Let me stop right there. Why the fuck is Trump still having rallies? He's the president already. Don't you have something to do besides like have a bunch of people praise you? Are you a fucking mega church leader? You're the president of the United States. Why are we still having rallies, bro? But he was introduced by Jackson Dart and his teammate Abdul Carter called him out on X, formerly known as Twitter, and said, Thought this shit was AI. What we doing, man? Apparently, I got a notification from ESPN this morning. Jackson Dart had a talking to with his team where they talked about not airing the team's dirty laundry in public. Okay, okay. So you can make a big political statement while on our team in front of the whole fucking world, and I can't say something about it about where I stand because because if if you are a person who morally is so opposed to the viewpoints that come with supporting someone like Donald Trump, you kind of want to say, hey, I know I work with this guy, but fuck that. So I I think Abdul Carter had every right to come out and say, what are we doing? What is this? What are we doing? And at this point, at this point, why? That's what I want to know. Why at this point are we doing this? Why? If you want to go see the president, go win a fucking Super Bowl, bitch. You want to see the president so bad, go win a fucking Super Bowl, bitch. Otherwise, you're going out of your way to introduce Trump at a rally. And a lot of fans were shocked by that, by Jackson introducing Trump. We're shocked that he's a he looked like a Trump supporter. Sorry, no shade. I'm sorry. Y'all gonna be mad at me as hell. Be mad, stay mad, been mad. He looked like a Trump supporter. He got Trump supporter in his DNA, baby. He you google Trump supporter and a picture of Jackson Dart in a fucking polo that is striped, a light blue polo, and some fucking khakis comes up. He looked like a Trump supporter. I went to the University of Georgia and you could throw a rock and hit ten of him. I'm sorry. I uh he looked like a Trump supporter. I wasn't shocked by that. Not Mary one bit. I would be more shocked if he weren't a Trump supporter. I'm sorry. Like absolutely not. Uh but the part that I thought was interesting was Abdul Carter walked back his comments hours later and said, me and JD6, which we making that we making that nickname happen. I don't know. That's lame as fuck. Me and JD6 are good. Exclamation point. We spoke earlier as men. Y'all can keep y'all narratives. So hada hold on, Abdul. The fuck you mean we can keep our narratives? You started that shit. I hate when athletes do this. I hate when they do that and they gaslight the media and they're like, they're like, the media. Why does the media like all these narratives? All these narratives, they can't just stop like narrating about me, like all these narratives. Huh? What narratives? What nobody even talking about you until you inserted yourself in it and tweeted it? The fuck? And I had your back. The fuck and you go walk it back. Either you needed to stand 10 toes behind that and talk to him in private as men and move on. Maybe you could have just said, we talked and we're good. But then you go and say, Y'all can keep y'all narratives. Huh? You wrote the narratives. You are literally the author of the narrative. What the fuck? That irritated me. That irritated me so bad. Like that, first of all, none of us asked Jackson to get up there and do that. So, so he brought this on. He knew that was gonna happen. So, what do you think? He was gonna go introduce Trump, and everyone was gonna be like, hmm. Anyways, how the white absolutely the fuck not. Okay, he it's a big deal when people choose to go to the White House when they're actually invited, when they actually win Super Bowls, you know? Like it's people still make it a big deal about it. He knew people were gonna give a fuck about that. So that's the he started that narrative, right? He could have very well not done that. He could have sent Trump a text, you know. Like, he could have very well not done that. And then you tweeted about it. You made it our fucking business. It's like when couples, it's like when couples make their make their entire living off of being a social media couple and showing us their relationship, but then when they break up, now they want privacy. Girlby, fuck your privacy. Privacy wasn't paying the bills when everything was going well, was it? Absolutely not. Y'all's narratives. Oh, that irritated me so fucking bad. Anyways. Alright, y'all. I'm gonna be taking calls from you, the audience. Uh, let me go, let me get my handy dandy phone. I've got a few missed calls from y'all. It doesn't look like I have any voicemails um today from you guys. But I probably should have made a post letting you guys know that I was gonna. I should have made a post letting you guys know that I was gonna go live and that you can call me and I would answer your calls on live, but I didn't, and so now I didn't get any voicemails. But next week I will take calls from you guys, the audience. And if you want my phone number, guys, write down my phone number. If you want my phone number, it's my like here's my phone, and you want to call or text me or leave me a voice memo, I will answer your questions, comments, and concerns on live. So my phone number is 678-879-5279. Make sure to add me to your content, your contacts. Let's move on to film study. So, what I want to address are the videos of Kylie and Jordan celebrating together after the Knicks swept the Cleveland Cavaliers because I'm being nosy, bitch. I'm being nosy, and if you don't care about celebrity drama, you can skip the episode. It has timestamps, okay? But publicly, Kylie and Jordan look healed. They were photographed, hugging, and celebrating courtside at the Knicks game floor clincher, and get and Jordan is engaged to Knicks star Carl Anthony Towns, and Kylie was there with Timothy Chalame. But Kylie was noticeably absent from Jordan's Bachelorette party in April, with speculation pointing to her family ties. Also, she had like a bunch of road products and a bunch of products that she was giving out to her friends during her bachelorette trip, and there was no Kylie anything. No Kyle, no Kylie Cosmetics, no KH2O, no none of that. None of her 7 billion businesses. Kylie baby, shit. I mean, I listen, I let my girl get through her wedding first, but there was no Kylie products anywhere to be found. So it gave, like, not friends. But I find it interesting. I mean, maybe they're just being cordial. Like maybe they're just being normal people and they're being cordial and they're being cool, but something about the energy of the videos just gives, like, they're not all the way there yet. Obviously, they fell out because of the friendship collapsing in 2019 over the Tristan Thompson scandal, where Jordan was caught kissing Tristan Thompson at a party, and it caused a huge rift between Jordan and Kylie, and then the Kardashians literally dogged her out on keeping up with the Kardashians. And a lot of people were mad at the Kardashians over dogging Jordan, knowing that Tristan was a serial cheater, and Chloe kept going back to him. But at the same time, a lot of people were like, Well, it was Jordan's fault because she knew Tristan was a piece of shit. But Jordan went on red table talk and it kind of seemed like she was being taken advantage of in the situation, and Tristan was overall just the villain. So let me know in the comments who you think the real culprit is between the Jordan and Kylie situation. But it's been years now, like that was in 2019. And at the end of the day, I think we all know Tristan was a problem. He got women pregnant on Chloe, and he he just kept cheating on Chloe, and she kept going back. So obviously Tristan was a problem, and Jordan is getting happily married now. So who fucking cares? But it just seems like there's still weirdness there. How could there not be? But are they fine? Are they not? I don't know. We would have to like review the film, run the tape back, and see how they were interacting at the game. But that is the final bell. That is all for today, you guys. We talked NBA playoffs, we talked NBA finals coming up next week. I can't believe it's already almost over. WNBA, a little bit of news. Shout out to AZ FUD for her breakout game.
