SPEAKER_01

It's close game. Houston up too, man. Okay one eighty nine. But no something though, I got the Spurs to come out the West, though. I'm not gonna lie. All the way through? All the way through. I got the Spurs to come out the West. Ain't nobody stopping that big 17.

SPEAKER_04

That's a lot of that's a lot of people sleeper team. Or whatever, but why the sleeper team though? Think about last year. Was you saying that about them last year? No. No. You saying it's I'm gonna tell you why I'm saying that. So for me, I say sleeper because they they you seen them develop in real time. Nope. They whoop OKC as this shit three times. Nobody before the season.

SPEAKER_01

That's why I got nobody gonna say that shit. That's why I got them because they fucking OKC up. I don't know none of the Spurs, but they be OKC. That's all I know.

SPEAKER_04

They got that man over there that's about eight feet tall. Yeah, he eight feet ten. It's another team shooting threes, doing everything, right? Dunking on everybody, but it's another team in Texas that ain't going either. And that's Houston, man. Houston, man. Huh? Yeah. I got a boy. I just think that yeah, I had Dallas earlier because I thought Kyrie would do a little something to come back.

SPEAKER_01

Kyrie for the chill. Houston looking good, man. You know something? This is how bad it is for me. I don't even watch the Lakers no more. Hey, I also mad at Luca. Luca shot more. Hey, look, Luca shoot more than Michael George. He shoot, he shoot more than I'm talking about the man shoot more than Michael Jordan.

SPEAKER_04

Luca's gonna have he's gonna be averaging 50 shots a game, bro.

SPEAKER_01

Right. I was telling my boy, he's from Houston. You know what I'm saying? My boy. He from Houston. And he got them. You know what I'm saying? I told him, I'm like, man, he's talking about Lake Man, first of all. Appreciate you trying to uh lift my spirits. You know what I'm saying? I know my team ain't gonna do nothing. I don't care if they got LeBron, they can have AD, they can have Austin Reed and Lucas. As long as Lucas on any team, he won 44 shots. A game. A game. So right, we're not gonna do nothing. He ain't got no defense. Everybody blow pass him. You know what I'm saying? So it's like I it's like, okay. Everybody blow pass him. So I mean, I see why Dallas got rid of it.

SPEAKER_04

That's why they put them, you see, every every player like that, they get structured around him. Like the last player that wherever he went, they build a team around him, nigga. Braun. Right. Everybody know what Braun needs to win, right? He needs shooters, he needs a point guard, and he needs another nigga that's gonna like be able to handle a rock and get a couple points on his own. That's formerly he had was like Kyrie Cleveland deal. That's when him and Kyrie can go out there and get a 30-ball apiece. You got love on the side, a big man that can shoot and stretch, right? And another straight, just shooter, right? A just shooter. Braun needs to be able to just dish that bitch out to a few people. That's when that team we had, Ray Allen, shooter. You got Chris Barks, stretch big. You know what I'm saying? You got Kyrie, Kyrie, I mean not Kyrie, Kyle Lowry, Tanger Rock, B Wade, same as him. Uh, Miller, outside shooter. You know what I'm saying? And they bitch. Has on this shit, garbage niggas like Braun is one of them niggas that you gotta look at every point of your roster and like get them together. Cause he's gonna bring everything else. You just gotta get all that garbage shit. And that's how Luca is. You need a pick and roll big man, he can lobby to, another three, another three ball he can give it to, and he needs stretch wings. Niggas that can guard for him. So when he gets blown by, TJ Washington, pick up the pieces, you know what I'm saying? Lively, pick up the pieces. God damn it. Like all them people that when he glued by, you need good defenders

Lakers Frustrations And Luka Takes

SPEAKER_04

around Luca. Everybody on the team can guard for Luca, bro, because they know he's finna get beat. You know what I'm saying? But see, that's it. But he gonna do him on offense.

SPEAKER_01

I mean, I'm I'm I mean, I'm I mean, like, how can you be uh how can you be the point guard and the small four? You know what I'm saying? Like, dude, you know what I'm saying? It's just like I'm talking about scrub be blowing past the man, then they be doing any type of way, and then they talk trash to him. You know what I'm saying? So it's just like on the real. I love that shit, go ahead, gonna lie. You know what I'm saying? You can go and score your 40 Lucas, but we still gonna win because we're gonna beat you. You know what I'm saying? And it's like we got a double team. So I'll tell my boy Major, like, man, look, I don't even care. I don't understand this shit here, but at the same time, though, you know, I give. You know what I'm saying? I mean, like, and honestly, I fuck with LeBron. I'd rather him go like the clean. Or go somewhere else. That's too perfect.

SPEAKER_04

That's too perfect. And I feel like he thinks everybody thinks he's gonna do that. He the type of nigga that go against the ground. Just cause he feels like a motherfucker's gonna be like, Y'all think I'm doing that, huh? Yeah, true.

SPEAKER_01

But see, you know something.

SPEAKER_04

At the same time, I'll fuck with it. It's too late for the game. Personally, me, right? You can't ever let him judge what he'll do. Cause then nobody know he was gonna do that shit when he went back the first time.

SPEAKER_01

No, I'm not saying that. I'm see, see, you know something. That's how I'm saying it. See, see, I see, like my I I say, my boy Major. He said he's gonna play four or five more years. I said, no, he got one more year on, maybe two. He waiting on Bright's. And the baby is I'm gonna go to a team that's already built is because I want LeBron to come off the bench.

SPEAKER_04

See he was who he waiting on for?

SPEAKER_01

He waiting on Bright's son. He's gonna be the only player in the league. You know what I'm saying? I got everything. You know what I'm saying? Like real. You been seeing him lately? Huh? You been seeing him lately? Who? Bryce. No, he's decent or or or he fell off. I mean, he ain't got better. He kind of just waited. Oh, yeah, because he said he's better than Bronny. And Brian ain't really doing nothing. But I just want him to go somewhere. That's like, honestly, this real talk. In LA, he could stay on the bench. He's fucking up chemistry. You know what I'm saying? I don't care what nobody says. Let that man come off the bench and he could have won six men of the year. Feel what I'm saying? He could have won. That's how good he is. Let Luca do his thing. Put the five, put a four man around him, let Luca do his thing. You know what I'm saying? And you come off the bench and get your four men. You'll be the rawest motherfucker coming off the bench at 45 years old.

SPEAKER_04

You feel what I'm saying? Because he already he don't think like that because he already said. And that's crazy. You know, 14, 13, and shit like that. Who LeBron?

SPEAKER_01

No, he's gonna get 25. He got 25 and a half if he wanted to. He won't. Yeah, he got 25 and a half. But it's just the principle of how long? How long? Yeah, I mean, when he came back, I told I told people he needed to stay on the bench and come off the bench. See, what it is is the bench need help. Not to start in five, because they were doing good without LeBron. Once LeBron came back, that's when he fell off. See, both of them can't start together, LeBron and Luca. Because what I'm saying, Luca already got Luca already putting up LeBron shot. So at the same time, LeBron, you come off the bench, get you 19 shots, and then you can be the main focus. Ain't nobody on the bench gonna give you 20 points a game. That's all I'm saying. But no, though, let me ask you a question though. How the family doing though? How my little cousin them doing, man?

SPEAKER_04

Big as hell.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah.

SPEAKER_04

Y'all, everybody good though, man. Love bless, you know what I'm saying? Right. But growing, bro. Yeah. Growing. Alright, bro. You know, older. Starting to start to see him like stretch out and and seeing other family members when they see him like, boy, you getting bigger. You getting you know what I'm saying? Yeah. It's all love, bro.

SPEAKER_01

Okay. No, because you know why I'm asking. I want you to do this more with me. You know what I'm saying? Ain't nothing like having family and doing it like this here. You know, both of us can stay in tune with each other. You know what I'm saying? Like, like, like, it's like you got a lot of things you tell me that you got going on.

SPEAKER_04

It was Michael Jordan in the NBA the first time he played in the in the in the in the first game he played in the NBA.

SPEAKER_01

And then Larry Burry said he looked like God floating at in Gym Shorts.

SPEAKER_04

The first game of the NBA that Mike ever played, he was the best player in the NBA, true, and I'm not doubting that.

SPEAKER_01

I give him his pop, you're right about that. But the best player, who did he beat? He didn't beat Magic.

SPEAKER_04

Every nigga that you just said was the best in the era. No, but see all them to get through to where he had none.

SPEAKER_01

But see, but see, he unless but see, you're right, he had to go through them. But did he beat any one of them though? That's the question you need to answer.

SPEAKER_01

No, Mike never beat Bird before. Who told you that? Hold on. Who never beat Bird before? When had Mike ever beat Bird in the playoffs?

SPEAKER_04

Oh, we said magic. No, no, no, no, no. See, see, see the two different conferences. Who ain't had nobody see look? We don't want to hear that. No had nobody see. When you look at the records and they say this team went against this team, and that's a W next to them, I don't give a fuck who's on that roster. Hey, nigga, you know.

SPEAKER_01

So, so so so what then? Okay, you said so, okay. I feel that. So let me ask you this question here. You say when Mike was in the playoffs, losing the Cleveland Cavaliers, Elo, Craig Elo, and all on right, and Mark pricing them. Was it a goat then? Yeah. So so so what then? Okay, so what then? When he was losing to Larry Bird, shooting, scoring C three points, going through his legs, and again swept. Was it a goat then?

SPEAKER_04

Yeah, yeah. You talk for me. You talking for me. No, I'm not. I ain't gonna be like. Because no what? No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. You said that. But see, watch right now to this day when highlights Mike going through his legs, skirt, skirt, skirt, skirt. And then what happened? And what happened? I thought I just saw God out there.

SPEAKER_01

But see, what happened though? He did, he did. But see, what happened though? He won't bless for no win. He got swept. No, Mike.

SPEAKER_04

That's cool. What you mean it's cool? Braun got swept twice in the fucking playoffs in the finals, nigga.

SPEAKER_01

But see, you know, so and then that's my point. He did. But see, Braun. See, and he had somebody. Who?

SPEAKER_04

And he had somebody. He got his ass beat.

SPEAKER_01

The only time Braun got swept in the playoffs was matter of fact, it was two teams. It was the Spurs. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. No, no, he playoffs, correct? That would make the champion. That would make the man. See, everybody love Mike for Duncan. It took Phil Jackson to say this here. You want scoring titles, or right, you want rings. Pass the ball, Mike. Pass the ball. That's why they told you. We're not trying to hear that shit. And that's why they told you. Pass the ball for the ball. Luca.

SPEAKER_04

No, no, no, see, see, see, see, see, see, no son, no. See, see, see, see, see. He did. And he still finished the biggest thing.

SPEAKER_01

No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. No, no, he did. No, he did. That's when the triangle came, the triangle. That's when they had Pippen and Horace Grant.

SPEAKER_04

That's cool.

SPEAKER_01

So so when then that means that Mike, you gotta pass the ball if you want to win. Like he passes to John Paxton. Huh? So let's do this. Okay, go ahead.

SPEAKER_04

So when I said, so let's pull it back.

SPEAKER_01

Okay, pull it back.

SPEAKER_04

When I asked you the toughest era of basketball, it's an 80s. And you told me that. That's the golden era. So that means all them niggas, right? If I pull a starting five. If I pull a starting five, if I put a starting five from the 80s, and you could put him against anybody that ever plays, then they gonna win. That's what you're saying, because that's the toughest era.

SPEAKER_01

See, first of all, you gotta break that down even more. You say if you put who again, if you get a starting five, pick.

SPEAKER_04

Anybody pick anybody from 1980 to 1989. Because that's the toughest era

Bulls Moves And Chicago Front-Office Woes

SPEAKER_04

of basketball to you, right? Yeah. So I could pick any, you could pick any one of them niggas to play against anybody before or after the 80s. And they gonna win in your mind.

SPEAKER_01

I'm not saying that. I'm not saying that. I'm not saying that at all. No, no, no. See, see, see, see, tough means the hardest. That's how I'm saying the hardest era. Because you know what I'm saying? They were fighting, they were on elbows.

SPEAKER_04

So, what's the best era of players that you think got the best talent? The 80s.

SPEAKER_01

The 80s, no matter how no, no, I take it back. No, no, no, no, no, no, I take it back. I take that back. You said talent-wise, yeah, I gotta go with the 2000s. Talent-wise. Because you know why?

Hold on, hold on, hold on. Hit me out. Hit me out. I'm gonna tell you from a famous dude from Chicago, West Side nigga, Isaiah Thomas. Y'all sit there and then the debate is real and it's raw and it's uncut. Niggas got personal beats. No, it's not something going on. No something. Mike got some personal bees. No, no, no, no. And and these are facts. He laid it out. Hey, let's keep it the same. Hey, hey, hey, I say the same thing. But see, at the same time, though, a lot of people don't know that. Mike was the first one to complain to the league about being foul. That's been going on for generations. Dr. J was getting hacked like that. He wasn't being fouled though. Who wasn't? He was getting his ass beat, man. The same way with Isaiah, he was getting it from Boston. You know what I'm saying?

SPEAKER_04

Like that. What? Boston is the one that created it. Boston. It wasn't nothing. It was nothing.

SPEAKER_01

Up in so many words. Up in so many words, uh, okay, oh, okay, up in so many words, right? It's just like this here. I'm gonna use Charles Oakley example. He said, when he was playing with Mike, he can shoot the ball. Now they asked him, if you had your son, who would you want to be like? He said, I already won't. Mike is my best friend, but as far as being a ball player, I want my son to be like LeBron because LeBron makes everybody win. See, Mike was hitting motherfuckers, Mike was smacking mothers around. First of all, it's not your team, the J Ryan's team.

SPEAKER_04

If Mike didn't have no help, they wouldn't have won no ring because honestly, he he been the lead. Matter of fact, no, it took him seven years to win a ring. You know what I'm saying? It took him seven years to win the never been to the final. Every time he went to the playoffs, first round, they got swept. He couldn't have been that cold.

SPEAKER_04

Would you pay if you go in the store and you look at something on the shelf and it costs $400 and you look at something on the shelf and it costs $100? What you think got the best value to it? And that buyer's opinion. If I'm trying to sell you something that costs more money, right? And it's the same product. We're talking about shoes. It's two pairs of shoes, one costs $400, what about what's wild? I didn't say, no, hold on. You said if I'm saying product for more money, that means the value is higher. Okay, but his shoes is a lot for nothing and all that. Nigga, his shoes is what it is because he who he is. If I put out some shoes right now and just put my name on the motherfuckers and put them next to Mike shit, and be like, he just talked about him for some shoes. Nigga, it's the name. My shit costs a lot because of what he did. Mike put out some shoes.
