T Sunshine, John Deere, Scott, Vic, injury attorneys. We fight for the win. You know who don’t? You You know who don’t. Do you know who don’t fight for the win? Come on, man. Stop. You You did the thing. Do the thing. Run the other thing. Already it’s already been done. It’s already been done. It’s It’s already been done. Come on, Chaz. Green to tell you. What’s up, Chaz? What’s up, Cher? I hope y’all don’t expect a structured a structured show today. Oh, no. No. This [ __ ] this [ __ ] going in the trash. I want to say this. I want to say something. I want to I want to open the show like this. I’mma say I’mma say this. I’mma start my statement. I’m get my Stephen A. Smith on. I want to say Trey Murphy, you’re a great human. You got good family, come from a good household, good dude. Trey Murphy finished with the same amount of points as DeAndre Jordan. Played 34 minutes. Hold on. Hold on. Played 34 minutes. Scored a touchdown with the extra point. Five rebounds, five assists. Look, all I’m saying and Alto, you can have a ball. If you gonna spend an off season, this what you wanted. You gonna spend an off season trying to be a sex symbol, you got to come out and hoop. You got to come out and hoop. We seen you in the videos, Trey. We seen you out there. You know what I’m saying? Um, you know, you know, you got the you got the new hair. You know, you was out there working. You got you got back from from an injury. You know, you was out there. We heard your media day. You got to come out here and hoop. Seven points tied with 37y old DeAndre Jordan is unacceptable when you as talented and as good as you are. Being a conum defense still as good and as talented as we’ve seen you be and you are is unacceptable. Tough love here, brother. Tough love. You gotta play better. I We could talk about anybody else y’all want to talk about. We ain’t gota talk about Willie Green. Willie Green. Willie Green gonna have his day in court. He He’d had many days in court on this show. Trey unacceptable, dog. Unacceptable. The Pelicans have no business losing a game like this in the city on the game on the on the the heels of the Celtics being on a backto back. The Celtics just got back from Detroit after losing came in the city and dog walk. You couldn’t stop Peyton Pritchard. Peyton Pritchard was giving they was Peyton Pritchard looked like Tim Hardway tonight. The first one, not the second one. What are we doing? It’s nasty, bro. Jaylen Brown didn’t play well. Yeah. Like, who’d you lose to? They didn’t come out there with no energy. They didn’t come out there trying to defend. They ain’t come out there trying to grab no rebounds. We They don’t listen. Offense don’t don’t enter the facility with Willie Green as your coach, but neither here nor there. Nobody wanted to play tonight but DeAndre Jordan, a little bit of Jordan Pool, and a few minutes of José Alvarado. You tell me who else got on the floor wanted to play tonight. Who else? That’s it. I mean, Ross joining the show. What’s up? What’s up? What’s up, boss? I uh this [ __ ] stinks. Uh I I was I was checked out really after the second quarter. I mean I I guess we man let’s talk about Trey. What what is what what’s happening? Can he and Pool not play together? Like what what what you what you seeing Chad? Like talk to me. I think first of all, shout out to everybody in the chat, man. Oh wait, Chad, hold on before you go. Before you go real quick, Cam, that’s crazy. That is crazy. I understand what you mean. Oh god. But but man, it’s a family show and and and and we we can’t be starting the show off like that, man. Like that’s that’s just that’s that’s wild. Go go go ahead. I think uh just from the from the jump ball, it looked terrible. Um I think again Jordan Pool comes out first of all opening possession jump ball tip out easy points right there. Jordan Pool comes out, hits a big three, doesn’t touch the ball again for several possessions. Thought starting Jordan Fizz was terrible uh decision. That’s why I don’t really get into the whole I don’t get into making comps, right? As a rookie doing this against second unit, I’m like, h let’s not go that far yet. You playing against historically one of the best defenses like in the game, period. One of the best defensive minds in the game, period. So Joe Mazula told you before he don’t give a [ __ ] if a nonshooter is shooting the ball. His he was determined this game to take out Jordan Pool who managed to survive and play well and Trey Murphy. That’s the only two people in that starting unit he was worried about. Period. Taking out everybody else. Go ahead and shoot. Everybody else go ahead and do your thing. Where the Pelicans really lost this game at, in my opinion, the defense was awful. Um, it was just it was just abysmal from again from guys that you don’t necessarily expect to be that awful. Again, uh, who else? Who else? Who else? Oh, and rebounding. You got around rebounding about 19. Yeah. Like giving up several second chance opportunities. Honestly, I I like if I was going through the whole team, I only could would say two players played well to me, and that would be Jordan P and Eve Nissi. I thought everyone else was abysmal and I like I’m talking and abysmal doesn’t do the work. Shout out to everybody in super chat, man. We definitely gonna get to y’all comments. Like abysmal doesn’t do it justice how bad they played. Even like let’s say Trey Murphy for example. Thought Trey Murphy’s find his rhythm in the third quarter. Uh was it he had a floater. Eve me comes down sets two incredible screens frees him up for another floater. They Boston calls times out. Timeout kills the run, right? Immediately, I think Trey came out the game, Jordan Hawkins and Joseé Alvarado into the game. Mind you, Jose Alvarado gave up at least four to five wide open threes. This just I don’t know what the [ __ ] happened there. Jordan Hawkins went one I think he went 0 for five. He only hit the rim once on five shot attempts. A professional player hit the rim once. Hit the rim. I ain’t talking about the ball went in, it was a rough shot. No, he hit the rim. It touched the rim once, right? This team, aside from coaching, has a a talent issue. Once you get past player three, the questions become painfully blatant. And I think this is what you’re stuck with. Uh, Ross, what you want to talk about, man? What you want to say? Like what what what what part of this [ __ ] do you want to talk about? Do you want to talk about Trey? You want to talk about the bad defense? Talk we we you you pick. I just want to apologize to our sponsors. I’m I’m covering up I’m trying to cover up my John Deere logo and my task logo. Fact that they have to be associated with this [ __ ] Um I find that to be a little embarrassing. I I don’t you look Yeah, I know y’all said some of the players you thought were okay. I I I really thought it was a total disaster. Um a completely unmitigated disaster. They were unprepared. Uh totally lifeless. It it’s just um it’s insulting. Uh it’s deflating. It’s it’s it’s just overall pathetic. Um, and I I look I really like you Chris started off by saying it the you know look with the Willie Green thing whatever I can’t we we could I could ramble on and get upset and do the whole thing. He’s the worst coach I think I’ve ever seen in the NBA. Um never he doesn’t have his team prepared. Doesn’t know how to make changes. All the things we’ve said a million times. it. This is where Joe Dear has to really prove I think that he’s going to be different and you’ve got to move on. It just enough is enough. I mean, a 32 point blowout loss to it. I don’t even need to rehash it. It’s just embarrassing and you have to make a change. Aside from that, players got to grow up. It’s just, you know, these per to perform this way. You’re professional athletes. I mean, all these guys aren’t this bad. I mean, every time Herb Jones stepped on the court, they went on a run. Every time. And I mean, the Celtics, every time. I really I’m I truly There was a point where if he came in, they were going on a 6 run like that. Jordan Hawkins is not an NBA player. I don’t And it’s Chris, I saw you tweeted it. I I don’t ever need to see him play again. And I don’t I ain’t gonna say nothing bad. Again, I’m not I’m not going to, you know, bang on the computer, do anything. He just shouldn’t be in the NBA. He’s not an NBA basketball player. Not for us, not for anybody else. So, if you have the opportunity, and I don’t know what his contract situation is, and you can send him to Birmingham, you have to do that. It’s time to start treating this team the way I I kind of said it should have been treated before the season started. And that’s really with a a the mentality of everything can go. If you’re not playing well, see you. Go to Birmingham. Just replace him with whoever’s down there playing the vest. I don’t need to see any of this anymore. This is pathetic. Like, it’s just genuinely pathetic. And and if I’ve got to continue to watch the Willie Green thing, you know, there’s just got to be some recourse at some point. You you’ve got to come out and apologize to the the the hardworking people that are paying money to go to these games on a Monday night for you to keep doing this [ __ ] It’s unbelievable. Chris, first first game of the season, the Pels uh have under 20 assists. First game of the season. First game they had 20. The second one I think they had 24. This one they had 17. Not that it mattered, but I’m just pointing out, you know, I mean, Al, they they they typically find most of their assists in transition, you know, but you can’t find anything in transition if you’re not rebounding the basketball. If you get dominated damn near by 20 rebounds, bro. And some of the rebounds are like there’s certain people that maybe shouldn’t have been like the guys that we saw playing at the end of the game, Bryce McGowan wins and all these dudes, they probably should have been in the game a little bit early. And I ain’t saying that like I’m not saying that um because the game was over. I’m saying that because there are things as a leader and as a coach, okay, we all got limits, right? Of course, bad play is going to happen. And when you got young dudes out there, you got to let you you got to let some of the mistakes happen and just shake your head and say, “All right, keep going. Keep finding your reps.” But there were there were multiple possessions, bro, where they were giving up rebounds when they had three guys were positioned. They had three Pelicans around the basket and they’re giving up offensive rebounds. One of them was the Peyton Pritchard. Like, it was so many. It’s not even the fact that they lost a rebounding battle. It’s not even the fact that they lost the offensive rebounding battle. It’s the way that they did it. Down six, down eight, down this, down there. Every time you even got a stop, you got Boston lucky enough to miss a shot, a rebound is right there. And guys ain’t even thinking about putting putting a body on a body. If you Willie Green at that point, you call a timeout. I don’t care how Christian you are. I don’t care if you don’t curse. I don’t care what the situation is. You say we are not doing that. If I’m going to lose, I’mma go out. It ain’t going to be like that. Like I know we a poor defensive rebounding team, but it can’t be a situation where three people are losing or not being able to grab a ball to Payton Pritchard. Hey, let me ask you a question. Three games in, y’all y’all think they quiet they quietly quit on Willie Green. Three games in I thought they was done before the season started, honestly. Yeah, I kind of did, too. Like when you watch like during the live I did like you watch the home opener and you look at Zion face during American anthem they just look so like disinterested and like I don’t want to play for this. I think I think the only thing they do is really play for one another honestly like and and when they are playing hard and going on runs I think they more so doing it for one another versus Willie. Go ahead Ross. Yeah. No I I totally agree. I I don’t it looks to me like they Yeah. It’s not really even all that quiet. I mean, what you saw tonight was a team that just didn’t play. Like, and the saddest part for me is is like that Willie Green is I mean, he does this a long time ago, and I think it’s just his personality, but he he’s got this mannerism that that comes off as he’s given up on himself, too. And he’s he’s been that way forever where like, going back to the point Chris just made, there were multiple times throughout this game where Threearters of the coaches in the NBA would call a timeout and make a wholesale substitution. All five of you [ __ ] are out and you five [ __ ] at the end of the bench are in. No questions asked. I don’t care if you throw a fit because we aren’t going to play that way. That’s just not NBA basketball to continually tip rebounds around. You’ve got little guards in there getting them. And then not only are they getting the re not only are they getting the rebound and not only they getting the rebound, they’re just getting an easy putback. Like it’s one thing if a ball gets batted around and somebody ends up with it and they got to dribble out. We don’t have enough effort to even then contest the the six-foot guy shooting just a a a warm-up layup. Like there are times that you can’t stand for certain things and you’ve got to call a timeout. selling a click clipboard, you know, down the down the the locker room tunnel. Do whatever you got to do. But he just he he doesn’t it’s it’s like he doesn’t either know or care enough to solve the own problem. Like his own problem. It’s just genuinely unbelievable to me. Ross, he can’t though. He can’t. There’s no there’s clearly no ownership. And I’m not talking about ownership. Well, Willie, there’s no ownership like of this is my problem, right? When you sit down at a press conference. You are no better or worse than a politician. You know what you should say. You know what people want to hear. You don’t You know what people don’t want to hear. And you know what you feel when you sit down and somebody ask you, “Is Zion Williams’s injury or his situation serious?” And you say, “I don’t know. He looked fine earlier. He looked fine earlier than me.” Um, I guess we’ll just figure it out. And you know, I It’s It’s always that I don’t know. We’ll have to run some test. Do you know or do you not know? Hey. Hey, listen. He’s not playing tonight. He’s not playing tonight. What is I don’t know. Yeah. What? Like like like and and if I’m if I’m a player and we’ll find out if we don’t already know why Zai didn’t play tonight. Like, yo, you the leader no matter what. Like, it’s your job to sit down there and either a protect me or hold me accountable. I don’t know. And so, so so, so what happens when it’s time for him to answer actual questions with this basketball team on the floor that when when it comes to actually to making basketball decisions and making basketball observations and basketball changes and call them basketball players, you know what you get? I don’t know because he don’t you know you know Willie Green is Willie Green is the guy who the the the nice guy finish his last guy like [ __ ] just he just over there he hating on everybody in the corner over there getting action just throwing his Bible just like oh she gave him oh he gave her she got his number man we’ll see about that like bro he don’t Now you look at him on the side. The the play with um Jordan Hawkins pump fake and I forgot who it was jumped into him and they didn’t call a foul on the three. Oh Jordan Pool. Jordan Pool I’m sorry. Jordan Pool and Willie Green was on the sideline like this dog like like dog you could react like it don’t have to be it don’t have to be so buttoned up on the side. Like you’re the crazy thing is dog you was a professional basketball player. You can express emotion. You can get a technical. You can take like you you can pull the ref to the side. He’d be s it’s been four years of this. It’s four years of this. And this I’m gonna say this. This game is not nec This is not Willie Green’s 100% Willie Green’s fault, right? Like this this iteration of basketball, them dudes out there, they stunk. They stunk tonight. Like they they they was BFI. Sydney Torres, all that [ __ ] They they they was trash. I I I lost interest in the game in the second quarter. But the fact that like the general of this [ __ ] is you turning around and you looking at a dude who don’t have no answers. I don’t want to play for him either. I don’t have no question. Y’all could just react. Yo, uh Kan, we need you to call Cash people. Cash. Need you to call Cash. Get Cash on the case. Um, honestly, I think aside from Willie Green, who I always kind of felt like was a little bit on, you know, the further end of the spectrum, it’s just like I just think a lot of these dudes, I won’t say a lot, but it takes time to undo the damage that David Griffin did. It’s it’s just gonna take time because with some of these players, they not even doing what you accustomed to seeing them do on a small level. Like, you know what I’m saying? One player in particular, right wing, fourth quarter. Sam Sam Hower. Sam can’t do nothing but shoot. And he ain’t exactly been like incredible. Herb goes under the screen, bucket by Sam Hower. Herb takes a step back on sewing play. Herb takes a step back three in the right corner. misses. Following her shot, another three at the top of the key. It’s like Boston is giving you these shots for a reason. They want you to take these shots. So, at minimum, what you I saw um Keith Smith post something. Keith Smith like, “Well, Herb was the only guy that got back in defense. He was yelling at the team.” It’s like been abysmal defensively this the three games he’s been awful defensively. DeAndre Jordan, you know, them dunks and all that [ __ ] was cool. He gave up a lot of offensive rebounds. He gave up a lot of offensive boards, honestly. Um, Trey offensively never could get anything going. The passing is cool. Miss Mei on a a nice cut for easy alley. Passing is cool, but can’t get anything going offensively. Part of that is on him and not shooting contested jumpers. And another part of that is can’t get free because you playing with a bunch of non threats on offense. The only person who was consistently trying to get a shot and was able to at least get a clean look was Jordan P. Everybody else looked like they was I can’t say fighting for the li their lives because they didn’t play well. But look, at the end of the day, this is a this is a a grown adults league. Hawkins and Jose were totally overpowered out there. Totally overpowered and outmanned out there. I don’t mean it in a disrespectful manner. They were they were outmanned out there like by by little stocky guys. I don’t know who the [ __ ] number 55 is. I don’t know who some of them dude I ain’t I never heard none of them dudes in my life some of them dudes but they were out manning these [ __ ] and that’s a real issue. It’s a real issue when you have them on the roster taking minutes and opportunities from players that could be on this team. Look, I see I see comments that that that are alluding to like and we’ve even said it. Look, this this it’s not all every game isn’t Willie Green’s fault. I I I get that. We expect I expect players to have bad moments, bad games, low energy, whatever it is in an 82 game seat, whatever. Whatever. The issue and why the focus is always on Willie Green is because this happens all the time. all the time. And all of those things Chaz just talked about are basketball things. Going under a screen is a basketball thing. Like not adjusting your offense is a basketball thing. Yeah. Who the [ __ ] is that with basketball [ __ ] Yeah. Analytics. Trey Trey Murphy continuing to to play this ugly style of basketball that that I’ve really never seen him play. These are basketball things that aren’t being addressed. And my fear is that whatever goodwill or whatever uh culture changes you were trying to instill with the Dumar’s hire are actually being totally negated by continuing to have Willie Green lead these people. they they don’t believe in him. He can’t motivate them. He sure as hell can’t teach them. And so the issue now is that you’re you look the same as you did last year or maybe even worse. And and you know, we’ve spent all this offseason, everybody wanted to talk about Trey and Herb that and pull this or whatever. And I just watched these same guys everybody’s been saying how talented this roster is get the [ __ ] beat out of them by 32 at home by an underman Boston Celtics team without Zion. This shows you what this team is without Zion. So don’t talk to me back to back. Don’t don’t talk to me about any of these people other than got Zion Williamson being on the court staying on the court. If you can’t do that, you might as well start looking at starting over. Coach down because there’s just I just don’t see anything here that that that we should be excited about. And I I don’t I know we’ve we’ve alluded to it. We need to let’s spend some time talking about Trey. He was horrific. Let’s go. He was horrific. And and and that’s just tonight. He’s been bad every game so far this season. I think the way he’s playing offense is is almost pointless to him being out there. M the over dribbling, the It’s almost like he’s afraid to I think it was the second half tonight. He was actually afraid to shoot the basketball. Maybe I don’t know what shot he’s looking for. It’s It’s not a wide open elbow jumper. They’re running him off the three-point line. He continues to over dribble, over dribble, over dribble. He He’s He’s even making floaters. It should just be pump fake, two dribbles, and a floater into these contested shots. Instead of him just taking a free throw line jumper for a defender that’s flown by, he he’s over dribbling and then whipping it into the corner to to Queen or or Herb. What What is this? I I don’t like playmaking is cool, but like this isn’t playmaking. This is this is like unnecessarily trying to to pass. playmaking. Playmaking sometimes involves you actually being aggressive and going score the basketball, play downhill or just shoot like shoot the ball. I I don’t understand like is this some kind of, you know, uh like aversion to to, you know, overly playing toward analytics? Is this just him trying to justify a contract and say, “Hey, look, people said, you know, I need to work on my handle. Well, look look what I’m doing.” I don’t understand the style of basketball he’s playing it. I’m watching him just pass up shot after shot after shot after shot. I said, “Good Lord, man. We we you got paid to to shoot the damn ball.” Let me let me let me ask let me ask y’all this. Do y’all do y’all believe this is a Trey’s uh the iteration of his game that we watching? Is this due to him being quote unquote the second best player on the team this year and teams keying in on him or is this him just over o he over like oversimplifying what he actually needs to do? I I don’t I’ll give the first answer and then I’ll shut up. I I don’t think they’re o like I don’t think they’re focusing on him. Like teams are doing the very obvious thing. Run him off the three-point line, right? Don’t let him just step into a three or don’t let him one dribble into a three. This isn’t like this is something a high school coach would would see if he watched him. You know, you watch two games of whoever you’re playing on Friday night, you’d say, “Hey, look, number whatever number Trey is, we’re running him off the three-point line.” Cool. Like, this is basic stuff. All right. Play out of that. And it’s like he can’t he’s not play out of it. I don’t know what he’s doing. I think I think I agree with uh with Ross. And I also think that I think the NBA adjusted very fast. I think last night, I’m sorry, not last night, I think the Spurs game he played better offensively because you saw a lesser coach and you saw a lesser defensive team, right? I think tonight you saw probably one of the better defensive coaches. And again, to me, I don’t think it’s a coincidence that you saw the best Trey offense game when they started Sadique Bay because you can’t just totally abandon Sadi Bay from Biana Art. But I think because Eve Mei was a weird late start tonight. I’m not sure why they started E like it was weird how they did it, but you started Jeremiah Fes who isn’t a shooter. You started Herb Jones who isn’t a shooter. and you started uh Eve Mei, who isn’t a shooter. I think you totally allowed Boston to to to stick to your two offensive threats being Trey and uh Jordan P. Now, the issue to me is if you trade, I think you kind of just got to force the issue sometimes. Like just shoot that [ __ ] Who cares? But you’re not gonna see Trey get like of course why would you, right? You’re not gonna see Trey get the looks like Herb gets, right? Like you’re just not you’re just not seeing it. And I think you didn’t have any gravity on the court, especially from two positions that could take the attention away from I think tonight it was it was like if I want to give F some grace, it was three on five in that starting lineup, bro. Yeah, it was three on five easily. And that’s me giving and I thought Fez was shouldn’t have started. He’s too young, you know. I don’t want to throw him to the wolves like that. But I think at minimum it was three on five. And Joe Mazula, he not worried about Jeremiah Fish shooting the ball. You like, you know what I’m saying? You talking about team a team that’s regularly in the top five defensively. This this and you got Derek White, you got Jaylen Brown, you got Chris, you got guys who like, “No, I play defense. Like I’m not I’m a we’re a real team, you know? we we got championship aspirations versus the Pelicans who it’s just like you don’t have a second move. You don’t have a counter to their counter. And even with Boston doing everything they can to give you the game, the guy like once you get paid, bro, you got to deliver again. Trey hit I think he hit two shots in a row. They take him out the game. Pool hitting big shots. Take him out the game. P played the whole first like like aside from like the last few seconds. He hits a couple big shots, you take him out the game. Like the rotations were crazy. They kept putting Jordan Hawkins back into the game for some [ __ ] reason, right? I’m talking about he wasn’t he wasn’t hitting the rim. He wasn’t hitting the rim. I don’t think people really understand how like he wasn’t hitting the He wasn’t missing. He wasn’t hitting the rim, right? Jose is just too small to be playing with adults out there. Like he he just can’t he he can’t do nothing. He missed like four or five [ __ ] rotations on Simons. Simons hasn’t even played well this season. You shouldn’t be on the floor, dog. You just can’t be on the floor. You can’t can’t be on the floor, dog. Can’t do it. And DeAndre Hawkins DeAndre Jordan, I’m sorry. DeAndre Jordan gave up a lot of offensive boards as well. But it’s just like Queen. The Queen. I thought he was okay. He’s a rookie. I’m giving him some grace. He’s face guard. His offense Boston misses. He’s face guard. I don’t know who this dude is. This big [ __ ] I don’t know who he is. He’s face guarding him. D gets the ball. Put back. Uh well, he don’t get to put back. Queen fouls. He goes to the line. Gets two free throws. It’s like little things. It’s the small issues that hot like for a team without much um room for error. Sadique Bay hits the big shot. She was down five points, right? Goofy [ __ ] keeps happening to the Pelicans cuz they got a goofy head coach and they just it’s goofy [ __ ] Think about Ross. Check this out. You’re down five if I’m not mistaken. Four or five. Sadique Bay got the rebound. Bam. He’s falling out of bounds. throws the ball, Derek Queen misses the ball, the other player misses the ball, goes against the ball, hits a [ __ ] three. I’m like, it’s the stupidest [ __ ] you’ve ever seen. And you’re just like, what the [ __ ] And and I can’t stress this enough and and it’s why for me it always it like it does go back to coaching. If this was Jason Tatum and Porzingis and Drew Holiday and Derek White, like cool. Like you you you know that’s fine. you. This is Baylor Shyman, Luca Garza, Luca Garza, like Sam Hower. They started a guy I literally have never and and I I watch I think as much NBA, right, or more than pretty much everybody. They started a guy I’ve never heard of. I’ve never heard that name in my life. I I don’t I don’t know who this person is. I’ve never heard Minnesota drafted him. That they’re awesome. He he seemed like a high energy. Never heard of him. Like you you didn’t uh Neus Kita or whatever. Like these are not this is who you got you lost by 32. You didn’t just lose like you got pumbled. This is the type of thing that has to be addressed publicly. I can’t we can’t do another season of like just acting like it didn’t happen. Like do Mars this job you took. you knew what you were getting into and then you made trades to facilitate what you thought was going to be something better. I need this addressed. This the this can’t go on any longer. It can’t go on any longer because well one because you don’t have a pick this year. So you screwed that up. So like you can’t go 20 and and and 62 and give somebody the first pick. That’s that’s something’s got to change. Like Joe’s got skin in the game now. So make a change. Unless Unless you trading somebody, that’s fine, too. Changes have to be made. Lots of them. You You have no There’s nothing on this roster that you should You should say, “Ah, that’s off the table with that. We’re building that. We’re building nothing. Nothing. You won 20ome games last year. Vegas thinks thought Vegas was kind and gave you 30 30 and a half this year and you started 0 and3 including a blowout like reality folks uh I just think uh they did themselves a disservice just holding on to too many things from the David Griffin era. um even his some of his successes. You’ve got to know when you’ve extracted as much value from something as you possibly can and then it’s time to just move on. Like, you know, um I think they had a chance to address a few things this season with Willie Green. It may not have helped. It It may not have even helped with Willie Green at the helm, but just like the NBA changes every couple of years. Remember how we all thought that, oh, they about to start playing two big liners. Everybody about to do it. It’s like, no, everyone’s not going to do that. Like, it it has it needs enough evidence for it to like to show that it works. Um, Boston, Boston playing the same way the last three years for we going to take as many threes as possible. We don’t give a [ __ ] if they going in. We can lose the game. The next game we gonna play the exact same way. This is how we play. Whereas with the Pelicans, it’s like, yo, teams are on to your shortcomings. Teams not worried about some of them dudes you rolling out there, bro. and you you had a you in a position where it’s like again even though you don’t have a pick, it’s hard for me to really I’m more disappointed about them trading Indiana’s pick versus them trading their own pick unprotected only because if it means you was going to bring some talent in [ __ ] it cuz we know the lottery not a guarantee because when I watch this team again you after Zion there’s a major gap down right And to me, this has been the case for years from a talent standpoint. At the design, talent-wise, there’s a major gap down and then everything kind of becomes a question. Like, you know what I’m saying? Like, some nights he gonna have it, some nights he not, some nights he going to have, some not. If you the if you the Pelicans, you have to the goal should have been to give yourself as much room for error with high-end talent with upper echelon talent. Even if that talent got upside and they haven’t um it hasn’t materialized just yet, you need some people that got evidence of being able to score the [ __ ] basketball. Like all that def that that [ __ ] don’t matter. Don’t matter. It don’t matter to me. It’s like this. It’s like it’s like people in prison worried about the Illuminati. Who cares? Why you worried about it? You in jail. Like who what got to do with you? You already lost. Like you you don’t need to be worried about that. Like what about defense? You got you you can’t score the [ __ ] basketball at a certain point. You’re defending yourself. You are defend you’re keeping your own points off the board. You need to be the point of the game is to have more points than the other team at the [ __ ] end. And you do that by scoring the [ __ ] basketball. Herb cannot score the basketball. Hawkins cannot score the basketball. Jose cannot score the basketball. These three players are playing heavy rotational minutes and no one is defending them because no one cares. No one gives a [ __ ] what they got going on. Ain’t nowhere in the world you see uh you know what annoys me about John Hawkins too? when he grabs a rebound, he just do this ah like he just got a big [ __ ] Dennis Robin in the finals versus Utah Jazz rebound and he don’t do nothing else the rest of the game. He can’t do nothing. He can’t defend. This [ __ ] dribbled into the middle and took a a a floating to the side mid-range jumper over two defenders. He is clinically insane. Like this man is insane. He’s been given the He’s been given the grace to do this. You never need to see him again. I I’m like personally I don’t think the season over [ __ ] like that because of how weird the West is with injuries and [ __ ] The Utah Jazz been whooping ass and we know they gonna pull the plug at some point. But it’s like Jose hit one three ran to the corner and took a heat check. Why? Why? What makes you think? Why? Like why what make you think that like what make you think you like you got the the the cache to do that on this team? the [ __ ] is the matter with you? Like you it’s just no it’s no clear direction. And to me that’s that’s a signal of poor leadership and it starts with Willie Green. Of course this team just so unserious, bro. It it’s just it’s just it’s just a it’s a it’s Bush League. Uh it’s Cactus League baseball. Like it’s it’s just Hold up. Leo, can can I say this real quick? Yeah. Yeah. Go ahead. Because this this is this is the thing. Uh, mind you, I just watched I I did a whole mini documentary about Brandon Ingram. I don’t even want to be mentioning Brandon. Y’all bring Brandon up. Y’all make me do this. Okay, so Brandon Ingram went five for 11 tonight for 14 points. He was 0 for three from beyond the arc. Had four free throws and they lost. They lost uh what did they lose by 103 to 121. He was a plus minus 21. He had the worst plus minus in the starting unit for the Toronto Raptors. Worst plus minus in the starting unit for the Torabto Raptors. So if I were you, I would recommend having one of these and relaxing. I would just I would just recommend having a old Oscar Maya and just just calling it a day, brother. I’m sorry. I’m sorry. You know what? of all the of all the stuff in this game that was disgusting or like Yeah, I guess disgusting was you you really you really could make a like a low light for Jordan Hawkins just in this game. His first attempt when he he like you can make a low light series. He he just he just dribbles in the lane and barely gets bumped and he ends up like sprawled out. He’s just so physically weak, man. He’s so physically weak. Oh gosh. And then they call the timeout and he air balls the It was real. I mean, it’s Chris, you all right? Chris, what you want to talk about, man? Talk to us, man. What? Man, get some sense of this, man. What you you want to talk about? You want to talk about Trey’s play style was different from last year versus this year [ __ ] Like what what you want to talk about? Um what what Chris, what what if I told if you want to go home, we can just do that, too. Yeah, I don’t want to talk about the Pelicans at all. Really? To to be honest, I don’t I don’t want to I um I I’m I’m upset I even wasted my time to watch the show to watch the game. I’m sorry. I I’m like sitting 40. We’ve been up here 40 minutes too long as far as I’m concerned. 39 minutes. Uh this this show could have been over in in in one minute. Like um Trey, bro, I mean like it’s like this to me and like I you know I understand what like what like transition like looks like individual transition. I don’t mean that in any kind of crazy way, but like he um cuz that because he looks like somebody who’s battling like like he he has like like an identity crisis right now on the floor. It’s like he’s battling what he used to be versus what he presently is and what he’s trying to go. And you can’t do all that [ __ ] all at once. You know what I’m saying? like like you you can’t be um the dude that was supposed to be that that was paid coming in the league as a 3 and D dude to a dude that’s a you know that’s a highf flyierly at the rim but a dude that also wants to be a three-level scorer and create at the same time that’s not like that [ __ ] takes time and we’ve talked about it enough like he’s struggling with trying to figure out all at once what am I what what works best for me So therefore, everything’s like, Doug, I I hardly ever see Trey get his shot blocked and it not be a foul. Tonight was one of the first times in a long time I watched him shoot an open three and it just be a clean block because he’s not he’s he’s not just playing within like a certain role of style. He’s playing trying to do everything, trying to be everything at once. Well, he ain’t got to be. He ain’t got to be. If Trey give you 20 points of 2024 Trey Murphy or 2023 Tre Murphy, this game’s a lot closer. But he’s trying to we saw in the first game against Memphis trying to get to the line, trying to do this, trying to do that, trying to trying to create for myself, create for others. And you know what keeps happening? It’s that Drew Holiday [ __ ] He getting caught up in the air. He getting caught up. He he getting caught with the basketball in bad situations. turn it over like I it’s just it’s not working when if you just take the simple shot when you got that ball them them them them them them them them them them them them them them them them them them them them them from Ross land the shots that Ross hate from 30 from 35 ft wherever the [ __ ] it is look [ __ ] take that right now 15footers the shots there just take the shot bro why you why are you trying to snake dribble closer and you’re not going to throw an oop to whoever the center is, but you don’t want to take you don’t want to take the space that the defense is giving you. It’s just it’s it’s it’s mental right now for bro. And you know, for me, it’s like just slowing down and kind of progressing like, okay, I don’t I got I got 79 more games of this [ __ ] I ain’t got to figure it all out right now. It’s good. He ain’t going to be like this forever. In another couple of games, he’ll be fine. He going to go on a run where where he gets you 30 30 points in three, four straight games. He gonna end up having a pretty good season. I’m I’m I’m sure of that. But with what we know that this dude wanted and how talented as he is and the type of offseason that he had starting out this year this way, it just shouldn’t happen. I totally I’m sorry, Leo. Go ahead, brother. I ain’t talking. No, no, no. I just want to say I just want to say to that I I I respect and I I feel all of that. I I think that, you know, Trey is one of those guys like when his uh when his shot falling, it kind of dictates how the rest of his game goes. But defense should never be it it’s a non-negotiable. Like it should What’s up, F? Defense is a is a is is a non is a non I don’t know what just happened. Is a non I’m trying to figure this out. I’mma leave it to the pros. Oh, defense is is is a non-negotiable, bro. It it don’t it don’t require a shot falling in. It don’t require a a you know a score in in transition. Shouldn’t be something that you know because you what he was he was 0 for four from three today. Don’t mean you shouldn’t play defense. But anyways five Chaz go ahead. Did we get to five? You know Ross my dog Ross you you just inspire me. You know what I’m saying? And shout out to the great Nipy Hustle. He said one thing we all shall aspire to do. greatest human accomplishments to inspire. So I got that Jordan Hawkins low life film for you, brother. Thank you. Run it. Clock’s down. Step through and it didn’t get the rip. B spacing into the corner. Three ball coming up real short. For good measure going there and he thought he was going to get a whistle. That was the Now you got Trey. At least he got the rim. Hawks got the board. Couldn’t get anywhere near a finish. That was unbelievable. Miscommunication. Fumbling to the basketball. Carl Hawks right there. That’s floppy action. Wait, here’s the thing. The grand hit me with a grand finale like come on you would have run that one back with what? No the last [Applause] bro I ain’t going to lie boy I thought I about to lose my channel tonight. anybody who I said, “Oh my [ __ ] god. I don’t think I’ve ever seen anything quite like this. There’s no way in the world that this is justifiable.” Wait, the worst part about it because I’mma keep doubling down on this suck. That’s like you playing you playing Black J. You hitting on a 20. This [ __ ] didn’t hit the rim. It was four. He shot five shots. Well, the last one’s the funniest one. You got you got one. You got to find one more where the very I think the last shot he comes off communication of the basketball right there. That’s not It’s a three-pointer to the air balls. What an air ball. Oh yeah. In the fourth quarter. Somebody close that door. That [ __ ] is crazy. What’s up, man? What’s up with y’all, dog? I had a nice night tonight. That’s cool. You know, I’ve been in Baton Rouge all day. Like all day, man. Had had a photo shoot, video shoot. We doing all kind of stuff. And somebody was like, “Hey, I know you.” What? How you know me? You do that podcast. Ah, yeah. You watching the game tonight? No. You said the Pelicans was going to lo going to lose to the Celtics tonight. I said, “Yeah, I I did say that. I said that. What you think?” He was like, “Man, I think they got a chance.” You know, you know, Zion, I don’t think he saw the news like, “Well, I I don’t know.” You know, so I I gave Grace. I was like, “Well, this team, there’s they’re they’re talented, but I I don’t think they got a real shot, and I think if they don’t win this game, it’s going to get ugly real fast.” You think so? Yeah, man. Yeah, man. So, as I’m sitting at um walk-ons eating my Cajun dealer because it’s right by campus and uh I’m watching it on my phone because they they have important games on like, you know, the World Series and Monday Night Football. So, I have to I’m I’m lifting my own defenses and watching the game on my phone and I’m like, man, this looks like a team, doesn’t it? Jason uh Jaylen Brown doesn’t even have a real hairline, but yet he can get his team to win. It got ugly real fast, didn’t it, fellas? It got ugly. Ugly real fast. It had me It had me punch in the air like uh Trey on Boys in the Hood. But you know what else was all air? This Jordan. Let me see if I can find Wait, is this the one? This might be the one. I might have set it up wrong. So, three to play. Get ready for Denver Hawk. Not close. Somebody close that door. Not it’s a not close. Somebody close that door. That’s so bad. Oh, dog. They’re letting him shoot it. Like they’re just letting him shoot it, dog. Hey, Chad, to that to that point, um, shout out to FanDuel, man. If if anybody feeling uh anybody feeling lucky, man, the Pelicans are plus uh 12,000 uh to be the NBA Western Conference winner. So, if you if you feeling like, you know, you want to place a bet, FanDuel got your back, man, that’s that’s a plus 12,500. Uh if you interested in that kind of bet, man. Man, can we get to some chat questions so I can get my dog Chris Khan out of here, bro? He look like Yes, sir. God man. No. Oh man. Uh shout out to bucket getter man. Refs hate JP and love’s JP and Z got a carry. Word. Uh shout out to that my dog 504 boy. Got everybody on the bus out of here except our rookies and start over. I ain’t mad at that. Slim. Uh man. We got to talk about it man. Shout out to E man. Yeah get $1.99 and six is on the way. Five. Willie and high Mike Malone man 0 and six is 0 and6 could be very likely I’m saying they not going 0 and6 they going to win one who they going to beat one and five I think they gonna beat the Clippers one and five can’t wait I think they gonna win one they gonna win one who that’s who they play Wednesday no I think they play Denver they mean look look look remember the coach say he judges the season by 10, you know, 10 10 game increments. Chaz, if they one and five, they got four more chances to make it a okay 10 game stretch. That’s a ridiculous. You know, it’s just that’s the untrained eye that that says something like that. Here’s the thing. Here’s the thing. Joe Dubar said, “I don’t believe in none of that 10 game increment shit.” Y’all remember what Joe Dubar say? I don’t believe none of that. Yes. So, hey, I just I just need to know the Pelicans need to go 0 and what for Willie Green to get fired? Oh, I think if they go on this West Coast road trip and they come back victoryless because it’s a road trip, right, that they play Clippers and uh game Nuggets. Oh, yeah. If they come back with no doubs, I think I think Willie might be about it because that’s the really high that’s likely though, right? The likelihood of that is Yeah, I think it’s highly likely because now he’s healthy is it’s like hilarious. It’s hilarious to me though like that he would have as if that changes something like uh hey one and five though like if we as if it makes a different like he should be fired now tonight. Yeah. 0 and three with a like a blowout loss like you should be fired today. Like you’re going on the road and losing three more it mean you’re just wasting time. This is what get this is this is what really gets my I don’t know if it’s true. Somebody said joy at Cafe Dum tonight for real. I don’t know if that’s true. Somebody in my chat say that. I don’t know if it’s true. That [ __ ] just walked past me. Cafe D. That’s what they said. I don’t know. My son trying to find some solace in a bag of beignets. What’s up? What’s up Chris? You okay dog? This is this this is this is pain bro. I I’m I’m tired man. I’m just I’m just tired. Um, this is this has been this is this is uh this is a lot. I did not want to do to do this show. It’s another year of this. It’s another year. No, like 0 and 0 and three. Come on, bro. And and now you just got to watch the same like the same story. Like the the arena was so dead. So dead. Like I mean no no no energy in there because there ain’t no energy from the people that’s on the floor. Ain’t no energy from your head coach. Your coach don’t know how to coach. You start playing on the bench for somebody said they took Willie Green out of uh the introduction. I don’t know if it’s true. Somebody said tonight I saw that too. Yeah, they took they took Will have to get that confirmed by somebody. They took him they took him out of uh the introductions tonight cuz you know last night that would have been Chance that would have been the most energy that you heard the whole night cuz they would have put the energy into booing him. Get this guy the [ __ ] out of here. Look at this guy. Look at this. Like it’s just this is this is this is and see like look bro if I felt like I knew Willie Green’s day could be tomorrow or the next day or the day after that. What? Great. I don’t saying it’s true. What’s true? Everybody’s saying they took him out of the introductions like that. Like if you you’re not ain’t the only place they can take him out of. Yeah. Then if you’re doing all that, this is what I don’t get. Just make the move. What’s crazy is just pay him the money to go and let Berago coach. Like this isn’t like a situation like, man, we got to go get somebody else. You ain’t even got to do that. Like you don’t have to do that yet. That’s why I think it’s coming Ross because y’all remember when um y’all remember when Monty they took Monty out the introductions and this was after the playoff victory. This is when they went on the sweep Portland all that and Monty was fired after the playoffs. I think Willie Green just do is uh I think Willie Green just do his cover. I ain’t gonna lie because why otherwise? Why would you do that? I I just don’t get it, bro. This a grown man, dog. This This a grown man, y’all. This a grown ass man. What? What? What do we take? This is These are These are his results. This is his team. This is what it looks like. You don’t get to be out of the [ __ ] pregame introductions cuz you getting booed. No, [ __ ] This is yours. This is your team. This is your group. You are responsible for such. Okay. If we got a [ __ ] group, if if if I’m in charge of a class and the class ends up with a [ __ ] D minus, I don’t give a [ __ ] if half the kids going to prison. It don’t matter. They gonna say, “Mr. Connor, is this your class?” And I got to say, “Yes, no.” I don’t get to say, “Well, yeah, some some going to prison, but we got these two real real smart kids that’s going.” I don’t get to say that. I gotta stand in front of the damn bail like anybody else. That’s part that that’s part that is also part of the part of the issue with this organization. Why are you hiding him? He’s 40 years old. Hey, bro. That’s so passive aggressive. That’s that’s such a that’s such a [ __ ] move. Like that’s that’s that really is the issue. They won’t notice. I bet you I bet you no one would notice. We gonna sneak this one in on him. That that’s got to be called out. like but you can’t it’s just so weak mind it’s it’s the same stuff man this is what makes as I said this earlier this what makes me really really nervous about this team in this whole organization because you brought in two Mars but I’m really seeing a lot of the same stuff I’m seeing a lot of the like these type of things oh don’t announce Willie because we don’t want him to get booed and this that and the other oh we don’t Is that the first time they’ve done that? Not that I may I not that I can like oh don’t start you know hey we got this you know we announce a starting lineup but then we we do some like these are the type of weird organizational things that that I’m used to and I was hoping that some of these weird organizational things would be gone with Dumar you would at least get a certain level of like okay yeah they’re not good but like at least things are normalizing this stuff isn’t normal this is that same like hey keep everything hush hushing quiet we don’t want people asking questions or making too a deal. I don’t like this. Do you think Do you think Joe was in the weeds like that? Do you think it’s him that made that suggestion or is it someone from you know that strikes me as like a communicate like a PR? Yeah. Like a commun like Yeah. But this is what I mean is that Joe has to address these things. This like Joe you were brought in and and the whole thing was no we’re going to change stuff. Culture is going to change. Accountability is going to change. That’s not just with basketball. You are the guy in charge. All of it has to change. And I I can’t I can’t live with with I can’t live with the same [ __ ] A center, a power for, and a small forward gave up a offensive rebound to Payton Pritchard. Get them all the [ __ ] out of here. Fire the coach. Fire the staff. Let they They playing without a coach now. You don’t even need a coach. just throw it. I mean, they they not announcing that when when the coach is is [ __ ] there because they afraid he gonna get booed. He gonna get booed regardless. They like like they they watch Poel’s talk. We do we do enough of the booing. Like what? It’s not going to stop what’s happening. You think if if if if he’s on chef uh goddamn highway and he’s walking past somebody, you think somebody is a Pelican fan, they ain’t going to start booing him there, you just going to be just going to act like none of it exists. Just hey, they three. He Yeah. Yeah. No one cares. Like he should not be the only coach in Louisiana to get five this week. They need to end this [ __ ] now. Don’t wait till they get to 0 and six. You ain’t got no more games. You ain’t got no more time to waste. Y’all said earlier in the [ __ ] show that they have they don’t have a draft pick next year. You not playing with house money. You can’t build for the future and you not looking to trade some of these assets. Even if you have great ass, if you have good assets of trade at all, do it now. Don’t wait. Don’t fire him in Denver. Don’t fire him in [ __ ] Los Angeles or go or or wherever the third place of the goddamn road trip is. Do it now. Just let him let him pack his [ __ ] now. He probably probably live in Kenner. Where? Let him go and pack his [ __ ] now. The airport right there and we can move on. Him and Brian Kelly could talk to each other and figure out what Hey. Hey, bro. What moving service you got? Okay, cool. I like them. I heard about them before. I’ll take that. Yeah. Yeah. We can go. Okay. Yeah. You know what? I’m cool with Dennis Allen. Dennis Allen had the same [ __ ] Just do it now. In the truck. Hey. Hey. Hey, bro. Look, the Pelicans got me [ __ ] up if they think I could only boo in the arena. If me and Willie Green was in Rouses and I’m buying vegetables and [ __ ] and he on the next aisle, I’m booing the [ __ ] out Willie Green. He gonna have to pay. He gonna have to get his his condiments to get the [ __ ] out of there, bro. A ain’t gonna be no ain’t gonna be no quiet shopping on my aisle. We We could be at a car dealership, bro. I’m booing him out of there. I don’t care. It doesn’t matter where he is. The nerve of them to think that because you don’t announce him, I can’t boo. You Justin? You Justin? Can I ask y’all something? Let’s just say y’all in Willie Green shoes, right? And this is for the entire panel as we get to the super chats. When you see these two plays, I just want to highlight these two plays. What are you What are you saying to yourself or to that player? I don’t know to show these two. Herb spacing into the corner. Three ball coming up real short. Kada gives it away and Queens. H going there and he thought he was going to get a whistle. What are you like? You say come here. What? Like what? What goes into the conversation from that from that point? Keep attack. Why did you do that? Hey, what what what do you think? What What’s the thought process there, bro? Nah. No, seriously. Come here. Come here. Come here, Jordan. What? What are we doing? We I watch you p You never You never tried that. We talked about this, Jordan. Stand. You take threes. You take twostep midis. You pump fake and you pass the ball. Why are you taking three dribbles to go into the middle of the lane? You’re not a finisher. You weren’t a finisher in K. What are you do? Get Hey, McGowens. Come on. Tired of this [ __ ] If I was Willie Green talking to Jordan Hawk, if if I to answer your question, if I was Willie Green, that’s the conversation that What are we doing? Why are you trying that? Chris, you got to unzip the three quarter. You got to unzip the three quarter first so he could talk. What the [ __ ] was that? Like um now you can’t say [ __ ] You not you’re Willie Green. Frick. Frick. Like how? All right, man. Let’s get to the question. Oh god. Shout out to uh my dog Jonathan. Man, if Joe don’t do anything about this in the next 48 hours, you can call it a wrap on this whole organization. Hey Joe. Hey J. I’m with you, bro. I’m with you. Joe too. Joe too. Yeah. What’s happening? Yo, I think I think we gota as a unit. Look, it’s 490 people in here, right? Come on now. And we all and you know, it probably got more people going to see the show later. If we can all at the organization on Twitter, [ __ ] like [ __ ] like this actually works. If you because trust me, they pay attention. If you can actually at the organization on Twitter and demand that they fire Willie Green as a collective, if this thing get, you know, pickups theme, then I think we can get something done just from a public just from a PR standpoint because trust me, they watch this organization. They’re big fans. Well, they watch the show. They’re big fans of the show. So, I’m telling you, just all we got to do is as a collective at the organization, don’t be disrespectful. Be real classy about it. What your Sunday is best. And you tell them, “Look, we we worn out. We we we out.” What’s the hashtag? What’s the hashtag, Chad? Hashtag We make simple. Fire Willie Green. We just make We don’t got to be disrespectful. We don’t even got to be disrespectful about it. This fire Willie Green. This This is runner’s course. It’s time to move on. No means no. Willy’s got to go. Yeah. Yeah. The bill is due. That’s so crazy. All right, man. Shout out to Tanner, man. Oh man, this is such a disaster. Unreal. Just log jams every time. Shout out to Tana, man. Shout out to Tana with two piece. Appreciate you. Uh D Bunch, man. Remember for 24 months, man. Shout out to D Bunch, man. Love. Gail. Got to go for the sake of both franchises. Brother, listen. Did you not see that article where they labeled her as the most powerful woman in sports? Yeah. Power corrupts. Yeah, absolutely. Uh let’s see. Kishan Patel any relation to no man. Uh don’t be hurt that don’t be hurt that had a Okay. had us. ESPN had us in the second worst team in the West today. Proved why none looked bigger. Oh. Yo, no. I ain’t saying that. Hey yo, no one stronger or sharper. Same [ __ ] and result. Hey, I agree. It’s like dog again when you look at Hawkins and Herb and I might give Herb a pass because he was injured in the offseason, but when you look What was that in? When you look at Hawkins and Herb, they just look totally overmatched from a physical standpoint. The way it’s like, yo, this you’re not in the A grade. Now you in high school, now now you with the big dogs. Like it just it physically they just look totally overmatched. Totally. Uh man, let’s see. So, we got uh we got our dog Big Hank 75 in the building, man. Got 47 points. Go ahead. Why is Herb taking step back anything, man? Good question, Big Hank. Good question. That’s the ultimate question. This is his second game doing that. It It looked like Kendrick Perkins. Y’all know that video when Kendrick Perkins dribbling and he got on the white shirt? We used to have we used to have some of those videos queued up or something like it. It looked like that to me. Got rid of them. Gross. It just look like took all the fun. We took some of the fun out of the show. Man, thing is time like it was like eight seconds left on that clock. You could have drove and made a better pad. You could have did something different. Like what the [ __ ] was that, man? Come on. Um, let’s see. We got uh I’mma assign your your pity on a runny kind to Z to Memphis for Aldama while Suns pick. No. Um shout out to Big Hang $5. I said they do with a green. All right. Hey. All right. Uh Victor for the four piece, man. Pool wave Billy off twice. I dressed up as a cow and Billy still looked at me more ridiculous than I did. Chaz impersonate Griff. It’s Hulk’s actual voice. Is it? Oh god, that’s crazy, man. Oh god. Shout out to James, man. Where’s the accountability for the dumpster? We’ve been asking that for years, James. Uh, shout out to Brian, man. Remember for 21 months. If Mike Malone, if you Mike Malone, you see this roster that’s ownership, do you even want to coach here? No, I can answer that one. No, I I really I don’t He wouldn’t He wouldn’t take the job. He wouldn’t take you in a You more of a a tier or two below Mike. He wouldn’t I I truly don’t believe he would take the job. It’s very It’s really similar to I mean, there were a lot of people that backed out of the Saints job last year. They pulled their name out the I think it’s I think it’s really sim. I mean the Mike Malones of the world just aren’t taking this job. The thing is Willie so bad and the mistakes you making are so like small to a degree that it’s like all you need is someone they don’t got to be good. They got to be competent. Like if they somewhat competent everything changes, man. Shout out to uh shout out to Dola 60. Willie Green is be fired. He is over as being a head coach. He doesn’t understand chemistry with players, he doesn’t use his players personnel. That’s right. Shout out for the 10piece, my dog. See, that’s that’s partially why I think even if Mike Malone won’t take the job, if I was someone like Mike Malone, I think you strongly consider it. They gonna pay you a lot of money. You gonna get as much control as you can [ __ ] as you could as you could want on top of no one really caring until the team becomes solid or good. it being swept under the rug. I mean, if I’m gonna be paid millions of dollars and be able to control it and do it exactly how I see fit, be marginally criticized for it. But I don’t You think you get that second part? Mike Malone takes the job. Yeah, but I’m just saying like I don’t I don’t think he’s taking the job. I actually think Berago would be like a huge uh like a big increase over what you have now. But but but just let’s just go back to what you were saying because I don’t think we’ve seen that with Willie Green. I think he’s the total opposite where he’s totally kept in the dark about everything. He’s a terrible coach now. He doesn’t get the criticism he deserves. You’re right about that. But like would he get full control? Yeah. Like what would you I wouldn’t allow Willie to control a toy car. So I mean if he was what do you think Willie Willie doesn’t doesn’t look to be capable of controlling such he he doesn’t show any any characteristics or mannerisms of someone that you would want in charge. You got to at least look the part first. There was a time what his team what his organization wanted Tom Tibido. Right. There was a time. Yeah. Go ahead. Go ahead. Go ahead. No. say, but but when but when you look at the at the the the people that this ownership group is hired in both sports, they they kind of seem like they’re looking for the exact person that you’re saying we shouldn’t have, which is which is the quiet yes man. Hey, you keep quiet over there. We’re not giving you too much power. You need to just, you know, just keep it cool and and and don’t say a lot. The these these franchises are making money. I mean, Dennis Allen didn’t say anything. Willie Green ain’t saying nothing. TBD on on on Kell Moore, but he certainly doesn’t seem like a big, you know, aggressive personality. He may be a very good coach. He may not be. We’ll see. Time will tell, but he certainly doesn’t appear to be the big personality. These people don’t seem they want to hire somebody like that. And that’s why I think because Mike Dunn looks like he might tell you to [ __ ] off right to your face. But hold on, bro. They hired Stan Ben Gundy and they fired him immediately. No, no, I mean, I understand that. what they hire. It’s like me. I’m Yeah. I I hold a grudge. I hold a grudge for forever. And I felt like again I can say it so many times. Willie Green ain’t supposed to be here, dog. It just a lot of [ __ ] assness in the organization and it’s haunted you up until this point. Now, with that being said, I do think you you are seeing some different things, right? I do think you seeing um Jeremiah Fish play and Queen play. I don’t think that’s just because the team because tonight team wasn’t necessarily short-handed aside from Zion. I do think that’s a direct order from uh Joe. Even Willie Green’s name being taken out. It’s like, “Look, bro, the heat is getting kind of crazy. We got to go ahead and um take you out of the starting lineup. I hope you don’t mind. I don’t give a [ __ ] if you do.” Right? Even them not telling Willie Green nothing because it’s kind of like why would we tell you something? I I think the organization as a collective to me that tier of coach that tier of coach Doug Christie Willie Green Chanty Bips that tier of coach silence prior to them hire you is the ghetto of the NBA right and if you listen to those guys speak you listen to the post game Doug Christie got to be one of the worst communicators I’ ever [ __ ] heard in my life. The the the the happy to be here. I’m happy to have a job coach versus [ __ ] I work to get here, right? This is like like like we’re going I’m good. I have expectations versus I don’t know what’s going on. I don’t know. You got to ask him. You got to ask him. I don’t know. Aren’t you your name? You’re the head coach. What do you mean you don’t know? Why don’t you know anything, right? Or lie. Lie to me. It was crazy. It was crazy. I wouldn’t be shocked if a [ __ ] told Willie Green exactly what to say. He got up there was like uh I don’t know. They gave a piece of paper but he can’t read it. See the only thing about Chris said he should lie. No. Chris said he should lie. Only thing about that like you got to remember the lie, right? Like messing around with Willie, he going to lie in the beginning and then forget that he said that lie in a different question when somebody follows up behind it. And then when you ask him something about it, it’s like you not equipped to to be asking me that question. I don’t I don’t get it. You know, they they should like Chris said, rip the band-aid off. Get this guy the [ __ ] up out of here, man. Tell me Johnson will be the next coach. Don’t you worry. Didn’t I tell Willie? Didn’t I tell you that the phone in my limousine is busted and I can’t get in touch with my [ __ ] That’s the lie you go out there and tell them. Willie [ __ ] This the kidnapper. This the kidnappers. [ __ ] who on here? Me? I I ain’t here. Shout out to Chuck Nola, man. again versus Charlotte would get him five if we’re 0 and7. Yeah, I think that’s their win right there. I think they gonna win that game against Charlotte. That’s unless unless goes nuclear. Uh shout out the ex remember for 21 months. I’ve seen Chris go through all seven seven stages of grief tonight. They need to play this pod of lex material in college level psychology classes. Appreciate your ex Kimberly $4.99. Appreciate that, Kim. Give Will Green that Brian Kelly treatment. Come get your [ __ ] Oh, chef at 5 at 5 a.m. Stupid fan. All free Boulevard. You heard? Yeah, I heard. I heard to Kim one more time, man. East like that. Like that just kid. I was born in this [ __ ] Yeah, we all on that narcotic, Kim. We all on that narcotic. Uh I think somebody said the license was over 200. Oh, we appreciate y’all, man. I think Let me ask y a competent coach. What y’all think the record is right tonight? I got him at at least two in one. Two in one. I don’t see why they couldn’t be three and 0. I like my p my initial prediction was going to be was like an offseason was three and 0. But that’s before like the injury started to pile up a little bit. A below average coach and they would be two and one if they if it was a bad coach. Yeah. If it was a bad coach, they’d be one and two. Boy, boy. Hey, Chaz, did you get the shirts, man? Do they come in green? I just need to know. Hey, man. I think uh they not only do they come in green, they come in bill green. That boy good, man. That boy good. Hey man, listen. Like, subscribe, comment. Uh we see y’all on Wednesday. Uh that [ __ ] Mr. four times though. Shout out to Taz, man. God, you’re rambling with your wrath. I got one for you. Eat a dick, Matthew.

Only the third. Guys, I don’t understand what you’re saying. Can you be a little bit more precise? They use a lot of big words. Someone take it as disrespect. And this how you get the this how you get the last three last five minutes of the pie beat. You being laughed at by saying dumb [ __ ] That’s absolutely right. Just how the stream still going on. We just laughing at you. That was like that was like uncalled for. Like you wait you wait for the end of the show comment like inappropriate whole ass week man. We on three. Yeah. [ __ ] you.

  1. Bruh this is so comical. Look at both franchises this woman owns. This is unbelievably bad. And here we go again with Zion. It's just ridiculous. If that Pels pick turn into a top 5 pick I'll have to officially move on from this franchise

  2. Pels nation it's now time to speak about trey Murphy. He's not a superstar, all-star , or a 2nd option. Trey is a roll player thats at his best coming off the bench . If trey Murphy was that guy he would have been on the starting unit 1 -4 years ago . Brandon Ingram was not the guy in his way . He had 4 long years of opportunities to start over herb at the shooting guard / SF. These last 3 games in his now larger starter role , showed why he never was offered the keys to being that guy !!!!! Trey can't defend – trey not a ball handler – trey can't create . Trey needs to be traded!!! Straight up

  3. Man if this isn’t the one to make fans stop attending then I seriously don’t know what it will take. Stop standing for this shit!! It’s completely unacceptable

  4. This team had the resources at a time where KD, D. mitch, D.Foxx, Kyrie, OG Anunoby, KaTT, J. Allen, Lauri Markennan, Kristaps, Dame, Mikal Bridges, Alex Cur…
    All these guys were available for trade to help bring Zion bring winning culture here.

    Now you have 3 scorers and a bunch of inconsistent players.

    Like wtf was Trey Murphy, J. hawkins & S. bey doing in the offseason …

    Why is Zion not understanding after 7 years that the 3 ball is what will prolong his game & every point does to have to be a rim run layup.

    Why is Willie Green still here?

    I’ll catch yall for a top 5 pick next draft..

    Oh wait I think GM traded to get Derek Queen like he was the next boogie cousins & he dont even start..

    Send this team to Vegas or Seattle and get a fresh start

  5. Can’t believe the offense is still all elbow sets it’s crazy as a nba head coach that’s the only play you know… The energy was trash from start till Jose and bey checked in as soon as Jose hurt his leg that was a wrap, Trey gotta be way better Payton bullied with the same mid range shot and Simons and white cooked us shit sad man, Willie has zero emotional nigga scared to get on players I would be cursing these niggas the fuck out

  6. We should have gone rebuild and tank in the offseason and we should go rebuild at the deadline. Fire WG, trade Zion, and just play Fears and Queen as much as possible.

    Defensively our perimeter defenders are bad outside of Herb. Our rebounding is terrible. Offensively we have e no body and ball movement. We don’t make extra passes. We have a bunch of guys trying to create for themselves and we have very few shooters. Terrible roster construction.

    Lastly why did we give D Jordan a guaranteed contract? Dude was sitting at home and should be on a non guaranteed deal. Once again Weaver and Dumars overpaying when they don’t have too.

  7. Pels are a reflection of the Saints. All them niggaz is mid! Trey ain’t what yall tried to hype him up to be. A bunch of mid running round. Gayle need to sell these teams to the Raising Cane’s dude

  8. Trey doing too much.. he want to be an iso player.. he not that.. shoot 3s put the ball otf on close outs.. all this iso bruh.. thats not u.. Fears different role.. didn't look comfortable
