What’s good? Happy Saturday. It’s very, very, very, very, very late. Another late game. Dallas Mavericks, Detroit Pistons. We’re playing in Mexico. Mexico. How y’all doing? How y’all doing? Talk to me, chat. Y’all excited? Y’all worried? Does this change everything? Do you believe? How y’all doing? You cut your long hair off already? Yeah, man. Got to shave that real quick, man. Had to shave it. How y’all doing? I in the drip check. Okay, I got it. Yeah, I got it pulled up. Already ready, Cam. Already ready. But how y’all been? It’s Saturday. I just woke up from a nap actually because I knew if I didn’t get some rest, it was going to be a rough stream. And I’m only here to bring y’all quality quality content. One second, gang. Up to 18 minutes isn’t changing anything against Kade Cunningham in the Piston. Sadly, unfortunately not. We’ll see though. We’ll see. Maybe Cooper goes off. I mark my words is going to be Flags Breakout game. Cooper West, if you’re right, you’re right. It’s NASCAR. It’s NASCAR time. I know the World Series is on right now. Shout out to the Blue Jays. Looks like they’re about to win. What can change things is believe in bewill. What can also change things is playing a point guard in your starting lineup. That can change things real quick. Real quick. have have my guy Gaff back. Yeah, same here. Gaff’s back. He’s playing about 18 20 minutes. Same as DLO. Both of them. Some decent minutes. Um I ain’t mad at it. I will it help. We’ll see. But it’s better to have that than be undermanned. But uh but we’ll see. But we’ll see. Flat can’t do any worse than his last game. I mean, his last game wasn’t too bad. It was the Thunder game with only two points. Let’s not have that happen again. But I think that was mainly because he was injured. He was uh off his game, which is fine. He’s a rookie and plus all players have bad games. It happens. Wait, why do playing 18 minutes? Is he hurt or his kid still trying to No. Yeah, DLO’s hurt. He’s has um a knee contusion. DLO has a knee contusion, which uh you want to be very careful with so you don’t tear your ACL. Um, but did y’all see the news that, um, speaking of ACL’s, uh, what they said about Trey Young, he’s out for a while. What they say about Trey Young, they said, uh, sprained MCL in his right knee. Out for like a month. Disgusting. But we good though. We good. My high school is playing the math stadium. Oh, word. That’s dope. That’s what’s up. How y’all doing, man? I feel Hold on. Benches clearing game seven. Blue Jays and Dodgers get into it. Uh, Toronto’s Andreas Gimenez gets hit in the hand with a fast ball. Woo! World Series heating up. Sorry if it’s going to be a little low energy. In the beginning, I am exhausted. I got coffee right now. Like, oh, I hate these late games. Paige are going to beat the Warriors. Everybody needs their first win. Let’s see. Yeah, it’s 114 109. They’re up by five with like 4 seconds left. At least it wasn’t us, right? Pay uh Warriors been doing pretty good. They’re about to be four and three, though. The drip check today is long. It’s the weather for Yes. I got you. I got you. We’ll go over a little bit. We’ll let a few more people get up in the chat. Late game on a Saturday. May not have a whole lot of people, but that’s fine though. You know, I appreciate y’all for showing up regardless. Regardless, we’ll do the drip checks. Uh, when you going to release your power rankings? Oh, dude. You want my power rankings now or like because I don’t think my power rankings will be any different from like what we see right now. I think the standings predict the power rankings pretty well. Um, Thunder number one, Spurs surprise me. They’re five and0. They’re number two, Warriors three, Blaze, Blazers 4-2, Lakers 4-2, Clippers 3 and2, Nuggets 3 and2, Grizzlies. I think the teams that surprised me are the Spurs for being that high, the Blazers for being that high, the Nuggets for being that low, the Timberwolves for being that low, Rockets for being that low. Everything else kind of falls into place though. Nico turned the match from contenders to pretenders overnight. He ruined ruined this franchise. Yo Marcel is lively in Lively is out. He is out tonight. Maver you didn’t give us an early power range for the season. Ah yeah I forgot to do that. I usually do like my pre-season like predictions. For meant to do that this season we did like the last two where we go live and just do like a little uh tier system. Totally forgot. Who do you think the starting five is? Uh the starting five is the pinned comment. The starting lineup, Bull B, Flag at point guard, Max at shooting guard, Clay at small forward, PJ at the power four, Gaffford at the five. Yeah, low key, those power rankings are crazy. There was one year I had um I put the Suns as uh yeah, it was like the beginning of last year I put the Suns as a poverty team and people laughed at me. Said I didn’t know ball. Was I was I right? Was I right that the Suns were poverty? Matter of fact, the Grizzlies could be so good, but they just suck. Yeah, it’s like a they have a fundamental problem. There’s a fundamentally there’s a problem with that team. JRE joins the patient. The Patriots beat the Warriors. Don’t tell me that Jerry had no impact. Ignore the box score. His presence alone. Marcelo, what do you think of the Mav starter five? Um, not good. I don’t think it’s our best. I think what we’ve seen so far and what we will probably continue to see tonight is that just the the the team benefits the most when there is a real floor general on the on the floor. And if and I said this and I’ve tried to convey this in my videos and it’s not that I don’t want Cooper Flag to be point guard or I think he sucks at it or he’s a trash. It’s not that. It’s that Cooper will benefit more from a point guard on the floor. Other people will benefit more from a point guard on the floor. they can play their best brand of basketball. Why would I lose winnable games by experimenting when I can just play the right way? Like, I don’t know. My biggest frustration is why do we keep doing this? Why is this like it’s already bad enough that we expect it? When it happens, you just hate it. At least I hate it. But as long as we keep running these crazy starting fives with no real point guard, we’re going to get mixed results. And if you look at the numbers, obviously it’s way too early to really like give it any credence, but the Mavericks have a top 10 defense right now. We are eighth in the league when it comes to defense. We are the second worst team when it comes to offense. It’s literally at the very bottom, the Pelicans, and then us. That’s the only reason why we have two wins is because we have a top 10 defense. If if our offense was was worse, we would probably be 0 and three. I’m sorry. 0 and five. The defense holds. So, but you have to fix it. I think it’s time for Clay to hang up the boots. Facts. Maver says, “Don’t you miss the go?” Hey man, he’s hooping over there. I’m happy for him. Isuka playing tonight. Probably. Yo, Marcel, you think kid is trying to make a statement by putting flag at point guard to say defense does in fact win championships? Oh, does not in fact win championships. If that’s his point, then I mean it’s working. But then again, a Hall of Fame coach shouldn’t have to be the one to tell his GM, “Hey, this doesn’t freaking work.” Well, it is his job to say that, but it’s not the GM’s job, or at least it shouldn’t be the GM’s job to force these type of rotations, lineups, and um odd positioning. If Nico is forcing Kid to do this, I hope Jason Kid quits. If Jason Kid is forcing this team to look the way it is, I hope Jason Kid quits. Like, leave, kid. Fun fact, I’m not sure how many of y’all saw the video, but I made a video last week where I said, “Yeah, Jason Kid actually did quit.” When we traded Luca, Jason tried to quit and they begged him to stay. Why is Kid pushing this point for that idea? I have no idea. It doesn’t feel like we’re good at defense. It doesn’t feel like it, but we are. Like, that’s the crazy part. Like, it’s hard to tell that we have a top 10 defense when we’re losing games, obviously. But, like, it’s because our offense is that bad. Like if you remember the Oklahoma City Thunder game, there was a stretch between like the second and third quarter where neither team could score. We couldn’t score because our offense sucks, but they couldn’t score because our defense was just doing its job. But eventually that defense can’t do that all night. Eventually, the other team will get hot. mainly because if your team is exerting so much of their energy on defense to make up for that god-awful offense, then eventually it’s going to break. Guys already aren’t making their shots. You think they’re going to make them tired after playing good defense on one end and then have them run back down and pray to God they make the next shot? Eventually they’re just going to get tired. So that’s So that’s the pro. It’s the weirdest conundrum. I don’t think I’ve ever seen a team with that big of a gap between having a top 10 defense and a bottom two bottom two offense. Like that’s crazy. Hello everyone. What’s up, Eric? I feel like uh I feel like we’re like John Morant from last night. Marcel, you know what? I did see you going off in the comment section of one of your uploads about AD. Hey, so I’ll be honest with y’all. I always invite comments. I always invite different opinions and I never at least I try my very hardest not to like shut people up and feel like what they have to say doesn’t matter. However, there’s a difference between here’s my opinion versus here’s me just just crying just straight up crying. And it was very annoying because in my last few videos I’ve had people some have been the same people. I’ve had people try to say that I’m negative towards the team or I’m negative towards Anthony Davis. That’s not true. People try to say I only make negative content. Did y’all say that when I made the video about how Max Christiey’s been playing great or how DO’s been playing great or how I Dwight Pal I give him props in in in the Thunder video? When we lost that Thunder game, I was fairly positive. I even said it’s start it’s all starting to come together now. Like I’m not negative, but I feel like as a fair observer of the game, which I try my hardest to be a fair observer of the game, when things are bad, they’re bad and you have to call it out. But when things are good, you can call it out. I think there’s some Mavs fans that just don’t understand that, and maybe not Mavs fans, but just fans of basketball or sports in general, is that, hey, don’t lie to yourself. If things are bad, call it out. If things are good, call it out. I’m just fair. But I don’t know. I don’t really pop off in the comments. And that day, I was at work. I said, I got time. I got time. It is what it is. Normally, I just pin comments that look stupid and just let the comment section get them. Our team is great on paper is just not applying to the real game. Exactly. It starts with the starting five. I truly believe that. Not just the team, but the whole organization. That’s right. What’s good, Rohan? Maver start taking screenshots and make a video on funniest comments from the last season. Exhaust. I should I agree. Marcel, the fans are pushing me away from the franchise more than Nico is. These players don’t deserve this level of negativity. I don’t know if you read the comment by kids saying that he plans start Flag and Kyrie as a back court. He will continue to make Flag a guard. That’s just so freaking weird, man. Yeah. Yeah. No, I got a video or at least I’m going to make a video tomorrow about Kyrie and some of the comments that Jason Kid made today and just going over that. That’ll be tomorrow’s video. But yeah, I’ve always tried to be like and and I get I really don’t let comments bother me anymore. It’s been a while. Like when I first started this channel, yeah, I I like I took everything personally, but um I don’t anymore. But how however however when people try to say I’m negative all the time, I hate that. Someone tried to say that I I only make negative videos to get clicks. My positive videos get more views. Fun fact. But the thing of it is like to say that I’m negative is wild when I’m one of the and I I pride myself on the fact I’m one of the most positive forwardinking people in this space. I don’t on the team. I don’t I don’t wish ill will on this squad. I you barely hear me say anything bad about Nico anymore. I mean, my honest opinion is I hate him, but like I don’t talk about him. You know, I still hold Jason Kidd in high regard, although I criticize the hell out of him. I do think that he’s a great coach, just doesn’t do great things all the time. You know, Anthony Davis is a phenomenal player who is injuryprone. Like, those are facts. I do think Clay is washed. I do I I truly do believe that Klay is done with his career, and there’s so much data that shows that he gets better as the season goes on. That’s that’s fine. But like, what I’m seeing right now, it just it just doesn’t work. It just doesn’t work. So when I call it when I call out the obvious, I get called negative. And then if I ignore the negative, then I’m called a homer. I’m like, bro, your mama. I don’t know what to say, but it is what it is. For sure, we probably have the most on paper theoretical team in the league. Yeah, kid is very goofy. He really is. Whoa, whoa, Marcel, I’m not mad at that. As long as Cooper at the two sends Clay to the bench. Facts. Hey, that’s true though. That’s true. Maybe they’ll probably put Clay at three. Send PJ to the bench. I don’t know. just finished all my college applications. INM and I’m so ready to just relax, watch the Maz win down in Mexico. Hey, hopefully you get into your dreams college. But we got about 15 minutes left. We have a very large drip check. So, I hope you guys are ready to go. We didn’t do them last time, but we got them today. So, give me one second here. What is my computer doing? What is this? Bow. What is going on? Why is it like Oh, first up, your boy. Okay, you can’t really tell, but it’s your boy. I promise it’s your boy Dwight Pal. Give me a second, y’all. All right, there we go. All right, we got Dwight Pal. We got some video or some pictures from yesterday and today, so it’s a little bit of a mixed bag. Um, every I’m so happy Mav’s better, not ruin the mood. Yeah, M’s better rebound and limit turnovers. I hope it’s a good game. But first up on the drip check, we got Dwight Pal. I don’t know. 10 out of 10. You can’t really can’t really go wrong with Dwight Pal fits. Next, we got a little B will hold on. What we call him last time? Backwood Williams. Bugs. Oh, what’s in the bag, Brandon? What’s in the bag, Brandon? You moving that weight for the Migos? All right. All right. Be Will. That’s his uh that’s his cartel fit. I ain’t mad at it. I ain’t mad at it. Next, we got PJ Paul Jermaine Jr. Yes, sir. Yes, sir. Yes, sir. All right. I like the fit, though. The Sinclair tracksuit. He always wears that hat. I’m not sure where that hat’s from, but as I’ I’ve seen that like two years now, but I give it a eight. I like the fit. Maybe even a nine. It’s the last thing you see before your entire season is like ruined. What’s up, Anthony Davis? All right. And we got old Clay. Killer Clay. All right. It’s a fit. It’s a fit. Next. N. I’m not really rating these fits. I’ll let y’all rate them. These are just kind of like just everyday fits. But I do like this Louis Vuitton jacket he’s got on. It’s getting kind of cold. I was about to say, why is he wearing that? He’s in Texas. But then again, I live in Texas and it’s getting cold out here. The landlord returns. It’s the new Star Wars movie. The Landlord Returns. Return the landlord. Yes, sir. Cooper. Cooper. Cooper. King Cooper. Keeping it simple. I feel like all of this fits will be pretty simple. Pretty simple. Next. DLO. Man, I may be DL’s like number one supporter. I’ve never really had anything bad to say about DL when he got here other than the fact shot selection. His efficiency is bad. his his offense is actually horrible, but he’s a he’s actually and of course it’s way too early. There’s been a limited amount of games, but D’Angelo Russell at the time of this live stream is eighth overall in the entire league when it comes to defensive rating, and he’s number one amongst all guards. Not saying he’s the best defender on our team or that he’s the best defender amongst all guards. He just has good numbers right now. There’s Look, he’s not trash. DLO is not trash. DLO is not trash, but I will always defend him. I always defend him. The only thing he needs to do is get that shot down and man, he’d be great. Next, Kayla Martin. Somebody asked me if I was happy with his performance the other night. I said, “Yeah, I was happy with his performance. Then I saw Quinton Grimes performance. I got upset. It like I know people don’t want to compare Luca to AD. That’s fine. If you don’t want to compare Luca to AD, you want to get over the um if you want to get over the trade. You know what? I’m not getting over that Quinton Grimes is better than Kayla Martin. That’s what I’m not getting over. That’s what I can’t that’s what I can’t just stomach. Like do not do I’m sorry. Cayla Martin is not better than Quinton Grimes. Hate it. Do trash garbage. Marshall, show them my fit. Sing the group chat. What is are are we going to interrupt this with the with the TGK fit check? Hold up. Hold up. Hold up. Where it at? Where it at in the chat? Hold on. I had to refresh it. I don’t see no no drip. Oh, I don’t see no drip. Let me see here. F. No. Who compares Luke AD? A lot of people do. I miss Grimes, bro. Grimes, bro, why the why did the Martin and Grimes trade make me more bad than Luca trade? Cuz with Luca and AD, you’re like, I guess I’m getting a star back. But with Caleb and Grimes, you’re like, what the hell? It don’t even make sense. Real talk though, I’m happy for Luka that he’s doing well. Kind of depressed for my M, but that’s life. Yeah. No, I always say like I’m happy, you know, when great players play great and I’m cool with that. I’m cool with that. But we do have another drip check that we got to get to real quick. So, I’ll just deviate from our typical um drip check to bring you u TGK in his living room. Rated out of 10. I give the I give the living room a 10. Like, like the setup fire. I always love TGK’s new apartment, new setup, but I ain’t with all that scary bro. I’m like a child. Like, I don’t like I don’t do scary stuff, but uh it is what it is. Back to the players. Shout out to TGK. That’s the homie. Next. Oh, that’s it for that. But then we also have some from today. Let me see. Do we get through all? Oh, we got Jaden and Ryan Nimhard. There’s that. Uh, M. I’m fine with the trade now. So happy we got Max Christie. Yeah, I guess Max Christiey’s like the brightest spot of the trades last year. But yeah. Uh, there’s Jaden. And I hate his all of his fits. Ryan looks comfy though. Next. Miles Kelly. Miles Kelly shooter shooter shoot. Maybe he’ll play. And there’s coach JK. All right, let’s see what else we got here. We got some from today. We got Moose Cay and Miles Kelly. Big Moose and R. Kelly B. Will. Uh oh. See, look. He always dressed like the plug, man. Like, yo, he’s about to go make a backdoor deal. You better not bring it back to DFW, my boy. They got your picture hanging up. I’m just playing. I love him. I love him. Do I have to say anything, bro? And I know if I ever like ran into Jaden Hardy, if Jay Hardy ever ran into me and he knows what I say about the way he he’d probably press me, and I’m and I’m fully aware that Jayen Hardy would probably press me out in public, but I’m like, “Dog, I can’t take you seriously when you dress like this. What is this? That top looks like it’s about to show your midsection. Like, what are we doing? Next. Chilling. Ryan Mhard just chilling. He looks like somebody. I can’t really put my finger on it. He looks like El Debar. I think someone said that last time. Looks like El Dearge. Next. Caleb. Caleb. Just be Calebing, I guess. Next. PJ be pjing. Next. Naji. Bina. actually at the top. Satoshi Nakamoto. Why does that sound so familiar? Why? Oh my gosh. Am I an idiot? Am I an idiot? Who is Satoshi Nakamoto? Y’all know. Oh, he made Bitcoin. That’s why. Okay. Yeah. Yeah. Not made Bitcoin, but like I think I think he’s like I think he did. I don’t know. But shout out to Satoshi Nakamoto. Inventor Bitcoin. Yeah. Yeah, I knew that. Yo, what are we doing right now? Drip checks. Drip checks. We got Naji next. Clay knows how to dress sometimes. Sometimes I’d be laughing at him, but he does dress older. Next, DLo. I always like Dlo’s fits. I think I kind of dress like DLo. I keep it simple. I’m always wearing like khaki pants and like a big tea. Clay’s all but he’s a play better. He needs to play as like like how he dresses. Cooper dressed like it’s his first day of school. Cooper looked like he dresses for his first day of school. He laid these clothes out overnight because he was so excited to go to Mexico. Ah. Oh my god. Um, you got to manage money effectively. That’s fair. That’s fair. He 18 though. Yeah. Cooper like a freshman. Exactly. Cuz he’s supposed to be. Oh man. Cooper got that white boy first day of school. Hey, my my mom said I was handsome. Love Cooper. Next. All right. So, that’s the drip checks that we got. We got about five minutes left until the start of the game. And one thing I’d like to bring to your attention is that we have about 150 people in this chat, but only 29 likes. What are y’all doing? And I don’t know where my animation is. Like spike, where you at? Like spike. Like spike. That’s not it. There is no like spike right now. Imagine an animation. Like the stream. Like it. Are all my animations turned off. Or we got super chat. I got a couple others. I haven’t played the Supreme Kai in a while. And to the rest of you, the nonbelie This is the Luca one. Uh huh. Is business. Yeah, stay on business. Like spike not working. Anyway, liking the stream. Coup motion a little bit. He couldn’t sleep last night until the fit came on. Of course. Of course. Like, bro, Nico just threw Grimes in the trade finder last year and just click Caleb Martin because his name and face scan and assume he can change his sliders to be a ner. Hilarious. I think athletes pay a tax. Uh I don’t know when it comes to like how players spend their money. Obviously like you’ve worked your hard you worked hard your entire life to get to this point. So it’s kind of like yeah you can do what you want. I just always tell myself like if I was an athlete bro first of all I’d be one of the most boring athletes. Like there’s nothing like there would be nothing interesting about me at all. I would not be like a James Harden and going to strip clubs or doing whatever. Whatever. Bro, I need to figure out how I’m going to watch the game because all my streams don’t seem to be working. Where can I watch this game? Says either Fubo or Peacock. Do we have a Peacock subscription? Hold on. Let me make a phone call. Better be awake. Ever been to Mexico? I have not been to Mexico. Um, I should be going to like Costa Rica in like a year or two. I’m happy Gaff is back, but we still probably underdog tonight. Yeah, don’t get twisted with Caleb. He is a great defender, but if he uh if he get back to that heat level, he’s a great 3 and D. Yeah, if he gets back to the Heat, that would be great. But I don’t think we’re getting that. Huh. Peacock is nice because you can buy one day subscription. I may have to do that. They better give Moose a minutes, too. I doubt it. We’ll get some Dwight Pal minutes. Some Dwight Peasy. How was y’all’s Halloween? Were y’all safe? Were y’all being good? Little noodles, I went to a little Christmas party. Shout out to my homie Josh. him and his wife Alex threw a great or great Halloween party. It was dope. What y’all do? Let’s go. Dwight daddy. Oh, crazy. Oh, goodness. They have Detroit 70% otoin bad. Don’t celebrate Halloween. That’s fair. Halloween was lit. All right, Jazzy, be safe. We need a trade for Sharp from the Blazers or either Mitchell from OKC, Kobe White, or Lavine. We need a guard. Too old for that. No, I feel you, man. Look, I was just out in the driveway enjoying my evening. Trade clay, man. I’ll take anything at this point. Let’s go to Ranger Bergs. Ranger Berg Burgess. They’re playing in Mexico tonight outside the country. Maybe that’s why I can’t get a dang screen to work. All right. Uh, who got the link? Because I need to figure out. All right. I guess I’ll just pay for a day subscription with Peacock, I guess. All right. Get Peacock. $8 a month. Wait, I don’t want ads. Dang, bro. 16 a month. All right, I guess I’m doing that. Don’t look at my password, y’all. Somebody pray for me. Okay. As I get my life together. What year was I born? 95. Every year it’s a longer scroll. I already have a Peacock account. That’s a lie. Uh, I don’t know my password. Actually, I should. Actually, I don’t. Uh, bear with me as I try to figure this out. 15 million for a dude shooting 26% from three is horrendous. Absolutely. Whoever thought an aging NBA player was a solution didn’t think uh didn’t think things through. No, Clay. Yeah, Clay been making me pretty upset. And like now I’m going be completely fair. I might be more fair than I should. I will say this. If we cannot give Klay what he needs, then he needs to go. And I said that already. But yeah, if if Clay needs a player like Luca to get him set, to get him good looks, and if we don’t have that, then why is he here? He’s not an asset. He’s not helping us, is hurting us. You know what I mean? It just doesn’t make sense to me. All right. Why is my thing going off? Okay. All right. Um, let me get this account going so I can watch the game. I would like to watch this. No ads. I hate ads with a passion. Crap. What’s this, bro? What’s my There we go. There we go. Subscribe. Subscribe to Peacock. Cool. I got a new streaming subscription. I love it. Marca, let me get you access to my playback. Send it. Two VPNs, illegal site, and 100 subscriptions. Yeah. Yeah, it sucks. I just hate I just want to go to one place and just watch anything I want. Anyway, I’m on Peacock now. It’s probably about this game. It’s a great atmosphere. Whoopsies. All right, we got the game up. Cool, cool, cool. All right, we’re ready for the game. No, if Klay doesn’t give us what we need, and that’s his three-point shooting, that he has to go pretty much. Clay is such a streaky player and now it doesn’t even look like he’s going to have a good streak. He’s just been lo just losing. Yeah. Nico makes a decision to so he gets the blame. Deont doesn’t seem bright enough to make the suit. Yeah, they’re both just dumb and dumber. Yo, we started on time. We’ll see. I’m going to sue them because they making me they making too much. Clay isn’t good inside the perimeter. Clay is and I don’t know. Someone tried to argue with me that Clay doesn’t slow down the um Hold on. I think someone told me that like Clay doesn’t slow down the offense, but he does. And I’ll point it out tonight because it absolutely does. I think because of the World Series, none of my streaming sites are working. That’s kind of lame, but what it is. This game is too dang late. Too much unfreeze late game. So, I got coffee, bro. Only way I’m gonna make it through is with this coffee. Hope Gaff collects the rent pay up. Somebody pray for me. Should have tip off up here shortly. Marcel now the go great sport app. Bet go my playback and file and I’ll set you up now. Well, hold on. I think I have to make a playback account. I don’t think I have a playback account. I think I do. Is it playback.tv? Log in. They’re singing the national anthem at this very moment. But we got a super chat coming in early today. Yeah, we got a super chat coming in early from team Cyber One. There’s a little $5 dono. I appreciate it, big dog. Thank you so much. I would start that lineup that go that got us back in the game against the Pacers, Marcel over the starting lineup. I agree. Uh the Mexico crowd better be rooting for the Mavs. Texas is tight with Mexico. Yeah, they’re all Cowboys fans, so you know, it’s cool. They ain’t root for no Detroit. N is this just me or am I the only one that wants Brandon Williams to start over DLO? We what we saw was a was a was a good showing from Brandon Williams, but I got to see more. He’s got to be consistent. You know what I mean? Who remembers when Lucas started speaking Spanish to the crowd last time as Mexico City? It was awesome. Check my uh Discord message I just sent you. It’s what I sent in the server about this app. All right, bet. I’ll check it out. At least you don’t have to hear any Fire Nico. If there’s Fire Nico chance in Mexico, that’d be dope. Maver, my subtitles are stuck in Spanish. Mine, too. I should know Spanish. Uh, let me know what your name is on playback. Uh, I just joined. It’s uh Maverick’s Digest. Send a little message. Yeah, them Spurs Lakers fans. H Yeah. Yeah. It’s pretty weird that there’s a Mexico game to be honest. They’re trying to be I mean they’ve been doing it for a few years now, but I think that I think they’re trying to like make a whole other league that’s similar to the NBA just in other countries. Mads are a seven and a half on spread. Spurs are top five. Y’all thought I was crazy. You’re right. I did think you were crazy. I totally forgot that the Spurs have an I have to watch my phrasing. I was about to say something cut on kind of insensitive. They have a freak of nature. He’s not an illegal alien, but I was going to say that in terms of like he’s a he’s an alien from outer space, but it’s illegal to be in the NBA because it’s not fair. But you can’t call him that. That’s kind of rude. You’re a creator. You can uh literally go to the playback and play the mouse game. Bet bet bet bet bet bet bet bet bet bet bet bet bet bet bet bet bet bet bet bet bet you can now freely join the stage control the remote managements oh bet I need to get more tapped in with playback it’s been like two years and I’m I’ve barely scratched the surface extraterrestrial alien yet those betting odds are pretty disrespectful I honestly think if B will gaff and Cooper cook tonight we can win I agree Mavs need Luca Hope he returned with 44 points yesterday. So can’t believe you guys lost Luka. Hi to Mav Nations. Hello the AK-47 for all. They’re singing both anthems. Yeah, they do that with Raptors games. With the Raptors games, you always get the uh Canadian national anthem and the American national anthem. You know, just a little solidarity type of deal. Yeah, they do candidas for Raptor team. Yeah. Yes. Yes. Yes, sir. All right. I really do hope that uh we do well tonight. Let me know if you need help. You can select from the t the live TV section, select the Mavs game, and boom, go live too if you want. Can I do both? Like, can I stream on playback and YouTube at the same time? I don’t know what I’m doing to be honest with you. Everyone always wants to be able to watch the game when I’m live, so it may help. Someone outside is honking the horn. Is the app working for you? Oh, I’m on peacock. I bit the bullet. Bought a peacock subscription. Here I am. Yes, I virtually canned my crap to All right, bet. After this game, because I really can’t do it while live, but after this, you may have to show me how to do both. Fun fact, basketball was originally in Canada. Funner fact, basketball was originated in America. The creator was Canadian. Don’t get it twisted, bro. Coup is the same height as Gaff. Kind of crazy. Illegal streaming is where it’s at. Well, none of mine’s worked, but here we go. They got some weird This looks like some weird AI like intro. Call Slightly Bias and ask them to help you. Facts. Good luck, math. Stay healthy tonight. I sent you five dang messages telling you Cameron sent something. What did Cameron send? I’m tripping. if you send it to me on Discord. I’m not going to lie, I’ve been kind of bad about my Discord messages. I’ve been so busy. Stream East, it was full there. I couldn’t get it. Gvers them into 15 minutes. Yeah. You sure it was America? Yeah. I want to say that the creator of basketball, he was a doctor from Canada, but he was like at a YMCA in America, I think in Kansas somewhere, and that’s when he like created the game. Dr. Nesmith. Nesmith created basketball where yeah, he created it in Massachusetts. I’m sorry. He created in Springfield, Massachusetts. So, yeah, these AI vids are improving. I actually hate him. Pay someone to make it like a legit cool video. AI slop is garbage. But our starting five is Cooper Flag, Max, Christy, Daniel Gaffrey, PJ, and Clay. The stadium’s kind of empty. It is. You can’t rewind. They spam ads and they’re glitchy. If you want the game for free, download app. Go. Great. Still Canadian. Oh, yeah. I mean, the man’s Canadian, but the game was made in America. But yeah, I think it’s cool. Advertise. I’m so lost. I can’t understand this. It happens. If you have a Spectrum account, it’s live on Universal NBC. Oh, I have a Spectrum account. My nose is like runny, bro. Allergies are I thought Springfield. I thought it was I swear I thought it was like in the Midwest, but Google just told me Springfield, Massachusetts. So, yes, it was Springfield. Just the one that’s in Massachusetts. Uh, baseball and grit iron football is pure US. Oh, yeah. American baby. Aaron Nesmith, greatgrandfather. Hope we see some fluidity tonight. I hope we just watch us play great. I better not see some Yeah. Gas first game. They got that dude on the Pistons who’s got like CTE. What’s his name? He be fighting everybody, bro. I hope we don’t see any of that. Let’s keep it clean. This Spanish lineup announcement is so funny. Love to see it. There we go. I’m stoked for GF. I hope he plays well. That’s my guy. That’s my guy. Hey man, we got 247 people in the chat. Make sure you like the stream, man. We only got 61 likes. Let’s get that to like 200 likes. Like it up. I would throw a little animation for a like spike, but I don’t know where it is. My animations are broken. Yeah. Don’t know why likes spike don’t work, but I don’t basketball hall of fame is there. Okay. PJ Washington, who’s winning the World Series? Uh, definitely the uh Blue Jays. PJ will handle him. I hope so. Is Mr. Glass lively playing? Nope. I hope Gabes is 20, man. I hope so. It’s a It’s a big wish. I need Gaty to triple double the blocks tonight. It’ be crazy. Let’s not sleep on Cade though. Kade’s really really good. And then one of the Thompson brothers really good too. But the Thompson brother on the Rockets a little bit of a crash out. Just got to watch it. Oh guys, guess what? The numbers keep growing and they keep growing. No, not Toronto. We can’t have Drake popping bottles. Oh no. Marcel, do you think Gaffford will make a three-pointer tonight? No. Do you think we ever have a game with all 18 players active? No. Aman or Aman lowkey got a temporary? Yeah, but ain’t as bad of his brother. I’m sorry. Aman is the one with the temporary. Ain’t low key as highkey. Live is injuryprone. Status. Yeah. Someone tried to tell me like in his second year. Yeah, Livy’s injury prone. I’m like that’s too early. Like I mean what? Steph Curry got hurt his rookie year. Michael Jordan got hurt his rookie year and those guys weren’t considered uh injury-prone. You gotta give it some time. But now year three, he can still turn it around. If the next like if the rest of his career goes without any like big misses of time due to injuries, then yeah, you can beat that. But it’s starting to look like he is. Doesn’t Cade have an eye injury? Maybe. 70% of the Pistons. That’s just is downright disrespectful. I’m glad we’re going to be making some idiots go bro tonight. Oh, no. Plus, he ain’t been playing good this season, even when he wasn’t. Yeah. Yeah. Lively hasn’t had any big games yet, unfortunately. JB Biggerstaff is the name of the Pistons coach. Interesting. B will better have y’all crazy. Honestly, think we can beat the Pistons. Let’s Let’s hope. I no longer believe in free wins with this team. Don’t believe it anymore. We’ll see. Seven and a half spread. That’s crazy. Crazy. Crazy. Crazy. A lot of people on the Pistons that are 67. 67. Gosh, that actually like drives me up a wall. Kids these days. I’m not saying we will, but I believe they can easily. That’s why I crash out when they play trash. Yeah. It’s just uh it’s always so frustrating, but it is what it is. We should have a tip off here shortly. But anyway, got a commercial for another for DraftKings. You So, y’all saw what was going down with like uh Chanty Bilips and and Terry Rosier and the rest of them with the FBI and everything. You would think that ESPN and the NBA, the NBA as a whole would probably like peel back on like the sports betting ads and stuff. There is a reason why I do not support that. I don’t promote it. I don’t support it. I turned down every offer. Nope. I will never be the reason why someone has a gambling addiction. No thank you. The Wizards game, bro. The Wizards are literally one and five. We gave them their only win this season. That’s hilarious. Warriors lost to the Pacers. That’s also hilarious. I’m getting Mexican ads. Nice breather, man. Wouldn’t say they’re better than Mavs, though, even with our injuries. They need to illegalize sports betting. Do you know what’s crazy? I found today that sports betting in America was illegal in all 50 states except for Nevada until 2018. That’s when things just blew up. So that’s when 2018 was when everything changed. And I’m like, dang, why did I feel like it’s been like of like only like like a year? Like I feel like it’s been less time than that. But I hate it, man. Sports betting has ruined Pro Sports 110%. And I don’t know why they thought that it wouldn’t. Not all money is good money. And that’s something that my father taught me. He always he like that’s something that he would always tell me. Not all money is good money. Don’t matter if you making a bag. If if you have to do anything that you’re not proud to do or that is harmful to anybody, even yourself, don’t do it. Not all money is good moneym. And there’s literally nothing good that comes from gambling. I could be wrong, so someone fact checked me, but I read somewhere that gambling addicts have like the highest rate of suicide out of any other category of of like addicts like addicted to drugs, addicted to like caffeine, all the different types of addictions. Gambling addicts have like the highest rate of suicide. That’s crazy. Why do we promote this? Like no, but you know, money stupid gaffer. We got tip off getting ready. Legalized weed. Are you out of your skull? Yeah, Lewis, do that. It helps more people than harms. That’s why I like this channel. No annoying sports gambling gambling ad reads. You’ll never get that from me. I promise you. I will. If there’s a ad read for anything gambling on this channel, it’s not my face. Not my face. Gaff win tip probably. Dwight Pal definitely earned a start tonight. In my opinion, I would I would give it to him. He did a tremendous job against the Pacers. I think he’ll get some run. At least he should. The amount of people I know who are doing sports betting while in high school is crazy. That’s what I’m talking about. It’s like certain creators and and I’m I promise you this isn’t me taking shots at anybody specifically, but I know a lot of creators across different types of content, whether it be sports or just general content creating. There’s a lot of people who do not care that they have a younger audience and that they are influencing them. A lot of people just look at it as, well, I’m getting paid to do this. They don’t have to listen to me. They don’t have to listen to the ad. They don’t have to go out and do it. I’m doing this for money. But that’s irresponsible. If you are somebody of influence, if you have a platform, if you have a voice, I truly do believe you have to use it wisely. That’s why I try I fail sometimes, but I try my best not to curse. I don’t drink on stream. I I honestly don’t even drink in real life. Like I had like a jello shot yesterday just because I was a Halloween party, but like I don’t drink at all, right? And I’m I’m not saying that because I’m like a big time, you know, content creator with a huge audience, but just the fact that I know that there are some small children that watch me. I got to watch what I do, bro. It’s a responsibility that I feel like you have as a content creator with influence is to not be a bad influence. You feel me? But anyway anyway anyway I’m I’m I’m rambling. Aiden Ross lawsuit. If you know about the Aiden Ross lawsuit, if you know about the Aiden Ross lawsuit, that is exactly why I’m not going to ever touch that gambling money. Never. Like what? No. There’s nothing legitimate about it. Stay going to slide into your DMs? I already have. Turn them down. You don’t you don’t think that all these gambling ads haven’t already reached out to me? Some that you probably never even heard of that I was didn’t hear from the first time. Like, come on, man. No, no, no, no, no. I think I was live last off season um doing a live stream and I checked my DMs on Discord and someone reached out to me. I’m like, on Discord? And then I found that they also emailed me so they were trying to reach me. No. Like, get out of here. Is Jason kid a top five coach? No. It’s terrible for your health, too. Yes. Yes. Again, I for those that have been here for long enough, you know where I stand on this. But if you’re new, realize that every ad you see on this channel from me is something I either believe in or I do. So, I did a VPN ad. I use a VPN, so I’mma promote it. There was one about college. I don’t have a degree. I never finished college, but I do think resuming your education for a degree can help a lot of people. So, I promoted it. I did one for this device that helps you stop smoking. If you want to stop smoking, I think that’s a good device. So, I’m not going to put out anything I don’t believe in. I don’t care about the I don’t care about money that bad. I really don’t. They pull tobacco ads, but gambling is okay. That’s what I’m saying. I And I And I found out that on YouTube, you can’t even do um like alcohol uh ads. Can’t do any ads for alcohol, but gambling’s okay because it generates money. Dirty money. Yeah. I only gambled in Vegas. Went a tiny amount left. The pool was real. Yeah. And I don’t want y’all to think that like I I don’t want y’all to think I look down or I talk down on anybody that does gamble. I don’t I don’t want y’all to think that. Like I don’t think I’m high and mighty or better than anybody. I just don’t believe in it. I think it’s bad for you. So, I don’t promote it. If you do gamble, I what I always say, gamble responsibly. Be smart with your money. Don’t let it ruin your life, right? So, if you do gamble and you’re here, don’t think I hate you. Don’t think I’m talking down to you. I like I can be cordial. I’ll tell you just be responsible. Clock malfunction. Yeah, it sounds about right. Still waiting for tip off. Uh, blackjacks is fun when I’m on vacation. I’m not going to lie. Like, I like playing back blackjack. Not for money, but just the game of blackjack. Like trying to get close to 21. I find that fun. Mexico is in the same time zone as Texas, but they somehow start this game at 9ine. Yeah, that made no sense. I gamble with Monopoly money. Smart way. I remember some player got into debt gambling, had to ask Kobe for money to pay off his debt. Like when you see and and like we’re seeing it now, right? Like what was that? Like Malik Beasley as well as um Terry Roier. Millionaires, guys who are making millions are still gambling and are getting in debt. us average people shouldn’t be doing it if these millionaires also shouldn’t be doing you know what I mean like it’s you can’t find me enough because I’m sure there’s at least one but you can’t find me enough people who have gambled their own money their own hard-earned money made a killing and are enjoying their lives there’s not enough people in this world that have done that that makes me want to also do it nope there are more losers than winners so I’m going leave that alone they say the Pistons is is Cooper’s toughest challenge We’ll see. But anyway, enough of me preaching. We got tip off finally. Maybe. I don’t know. We’re still waiting. I bet my house and my tire last year salary that Dallas win the chip about be Oh my god. If you could pick any coach for the Mavs, who would it be? Um, the Nuggets ex head coach I would like to be for the Mavs. I think he would do right by the scene. We going bankrupt with this one. Oh lord. Did they move all the fans to the lower seats already? Probably. Make it look bigger than what it is. Still waiting for tip off. All right, here we go. We got tip off. And we win it. There we go. Max Christy with the ball. Bringing it down. Guarded by Kade. Top of the key. He finds Cooper flag. Flags at top. Guard by Thompson. Going to roll into the double team. Goes up off the glass. No good. Rebounded by Duncan Robinson. I did not know he was on the Pistons. Thompson is bringing the ball down. I almost call him Thompson twin. It’s just him. Thompson goes up. Floater over Gaffford for two is good. Max Christy will be bringing the ball down. There you go, Max. I know some people wanted to see more of Max at point guard. Let’s see how it looks. Over to Gaff. Gaff at the top. Guard by Duran. Gaff to Coupe down low, but Coupe gave it to PJ in the corner. He should have scored. PJ’s trying to go up with the layup. Pretty tough. No foul. Swatted back. Saved by Coupe. Coupe wants to go in. Go to Gaff. Oh, Gaff got stripped. Ah, that would have been a nice dunk, man. Coop stop trying to help everybody out and just dominate. Like there was two times Cooper passed up on a bucket. Ah. Anyway, Jaylen Dur would have dunk 40. Why is Clay so strong? Because we hate ourselves. Explain to me why the scoreboard is faster than the official stream. I have no idea. The scoreboard below is like an official scoreboard. Like, so I think it’s like a few seconds ahead of the stream. All right, Coupe Pump fakes it three, drives, uh, goes up in the mid-range. Way off. Way off. Our spacing sucks. I’ve said that for a very long time. All right. Harris with the ball drives. Goes out of bounds. Pistons ball. On the back of my Marcel Martin jersey. Do I put Martin or Digest? You should put Martin or Digest. Your pick, but just make sure it’s number 11. We already getting dunked on by Durn. Yeah. Gafford’s hands don’t look too hot. A three from Duncan Robinson is good. Mavs down seven to zero. There’s our horrible offense. Not able to do a thing. Christy with the ball over to PJ. Off screen from Gaff. Top of the key. Guard by Durn. Got the switch. PJ for the three. Jay miss. Rebounded by Thompson. Ooh, PJ staying on him. Good defense, but they keep it alive. Was it Oscar Thompson to Harris for three over Gaff? No good. Rebounded by Cooper Flag. Cooper bringing the ball down. Over to PJ. PJ going to kick it to Christie in the corner for three. And it’s good. That’s my guy, Max Christie, the most reliable Maverick you know. All right, three to seven. Let’s work our way out of this. Thompson Twin bringing the ball down. Guarded by Coupe. Over to Duran, guarded by Gaff. Gaff step up. Too much space. Hands off to Cade. Cade guarded by Christy, but he goes up. Gets the tough scoop layup to go. Nine to three. Sheesh. Max Tracy been killing lately. Yeah, Christy with the ball bringing it down. hands off to Clay. Clay takes a three and he made it. Thank you, Clay. That was your only job. It was horrible spacing, but I’m glad you took that shot. There you go, Clay. Clay look like Yeah, the scoreboard being ahead of your live stream kind of sucks. Takes away the excitement. Listen to you. I apologize. I’m sorry. I There’s really nothing I can do about this. Dur with the ball guard by Gaff. Duran’s going to drive on Gaff. Body on him. Get stripped. Turnover. There we go. Or is that a foul? And it’s a foul. Good job, Gaff. Your presence is felt. Here come the the Dwight pal. I’m all for it. We got Dwight Pal. Let’s see what he can do. They love playing with Dwight. Ball moves well with Dwight. All right. K with the ball. Dumps it to Duran. Goes right up at PJ. Gets stripped. Oh, but the Thompson twin gets it back off the glass hard. It’s a foul. Shooting two. All right. Now, good defense. I have YouTube TV and they showing the game there. It’s in Spanish. That’s hilarious. Maps can never have enough bigs. Nope. Gaff looks sluggish. He might still be injured. Well, yeah, he’s working his way back, but I was but I thought that, too. I was like, Gaff doesn’t look like he’s moving that fluid. But that’s fine, though. We’ll see. All right, Thompson Twin misses the first free throw ball. Don’t lie, bro. I’m watching the game and commenters are not speaking English. That’s why I’m here. Chat sport’s not doing it like this. I’m a little different. All right, they missed the second free throw, but Duncan Robinson tipped it in. I’m tired of people scoring on Cooper. It’s low-key annoying. Anyway, Cooper flag bring the ball down getting doubled pretty hard over to Dwight Pal. Top of key back to Coupe. Coupe guard by Duran. Jaylen Duran passes over to Clay. Clay going to drive. Dump it out to PJ in the corner for a three Jay. No good. Save by Dwight Pal because he’s the greatest. Order. Max Christy. Pump fake drive. Swinging to Clay. Clay for three. There we go. Do we have a Clay redemption game? He’s two for two. Or maybe two for three. I’m not sure if he already took another one. Anyway, that’s two three from Clay. I love it. All right. Cade with the ball, drives, throws alley to Duran. Ah, dunks it the alleyoop. It’s all good. Gaffford’s being soft, trying to get paid and play no games. He better play too good. No, he crazy. All right. Oh, Cooper with the ball. Pulls up in the mid-range. Way off. Way off the backboard. What is he What is Cooper doing? Thompson the ball over to Robinson guard by Cooper flag. Off screen from Duran. Takes the wild shot air ball and it’s a turnover. That was crazy. Clay two for two. Oh yeah, kid going to do his Steve Kerr impression. Take out the game. Yeah. All right, DLO checking in. Let’s see it. Let’s get some motion. Nine and 13. D’s in the game. The Pistons should give up. Who’s my favorite player of all time? Kobe Bryant. Kobe Bean Bryant. All right, D with the ball to Dwight Pal. Back to DLo. DLO to Coupe. Coupe with the ball. trying to find some way in, but we need to space the floor off screen from Dwight. Gets it to Max Christie in the corner for three. No good. Dwight Pal’s trying to keep it alive. It’s a foul. Cooper plays way too passive. I’ I’m I’m starting to see it. I need him to just attack the basket. Go to the hole. Like, God, Kobe was a horrible person. He was a great person. He was a human. He was a human being. Great person. Lever and the Pistons. Yeah, I think his second year there. Coupe needs to settle in. I don’t think Hube has hit the rim yet. No. Score some points. But yeah, just get the easy buckets. Get yourself going. Dwight Pow with the ball off the inbound. Hands off to Max Christie. Christie with the ball. Working the mid-range. Oh, gets a nice little layup off a screen set by Dwight Pow on the low block. I love it. Two for the boy Max Christie. I think he’s up to about five points already. All right. Tobias the ball guard by PJ. Hands off to Who’s that? Levert. Over to Cunningham. Guard by Max Christie. Dwight for the double. Over to Dur. Dur’s going up, but he get dumps it out to the corner to Harris for three. Boink. Rebounded by PJ. PJ with with the ball bringing it down. Wants to go all the way. Euros and goes right to it. Attacks the basket right on Caris Albert for two to tie the game 13-13. There we go. PJ Cade Cunningham bringing the ball down over to Tobias Harrison. A low block. PJ goes out for help, but it’s back to Kade inside of Duran. Duran goes for the easy dunk for two. 13 to 15. He was formally charged um in the in that Kobe Bryant case. Remember, it was thrown out. He was never indicted. He is an innocent man. You cannot say that he did what he was accused of doing if the court of law found him not guilty. Otherwise, you would be speaking in bad faith. So, you think the Maps can get Jaws since he probably wants out of Memphis? I don’t know. I thought about that today, but I’m like, I don’t know. Do we give up AD for him? I don’t know if VJ would drink the year Coop. I’m not ready for the precise moment people realize he is 77. That’d be rough, bro. Darren will have 30 in the paint. Was it Jaylen Duran? Dur. Yeah. Shout out to injury prone to wild though. Fair. Both steams teams are perfectly sing. Let’s go. Both teams. Oh, bet. We’re letting another scrub Jaylen Duran cook us. Yes, we ain’t got no size down low. We got to start contesting. We need Dwight Pal to stay in that paint. Regardless of whatever happened in that case, Kobe Bryant still my favorite player of all time. So, we have no for during n 32 is a odd number for a basketball player. 32. Coupe really can’t lay with his left hand. Coup’s shots are horrible tonight. Why is Pal not challenging him? He needs to. Dwight Pal’s actually really strong. If we got Jaw, we’d be hype over the grenade. Sy, I would like that. Just I love that. Uh I refuse to believe that Jay Endurance is a bum. I don’t think he is. Just letting that roid head dunk. Couple learn how to shoot or he will be a bust. Man, this team needs to learn how to play basketball or we’re going to be some scrubs. Let’s take a look at the box score and get a pre or a way too early game assessment. What is your way too early game assessment of this game? What what from the first what six minutes tells you about this about this game? Let me see. They changed how the box score looks on ESPN. I don’t like it. Not at all. But for the Mavs, what was it? PJ’s got two. Clay with six. Christy with five. Clay looks better. Let’s see how how it continues. He’s hitting two. It was great. Looks bad. It’s a miracle the score is close. I know since he was in college, Cooper goes up kind of wild a lot. He just puts up anything at times and it hurts him a lot. Our defense non-existent. Yeah, our interior defense bad. What’s up with flag? It ain’t looking too pretty. It ain’t looking too pretty, but you know what? We ain’t got to be pretty. We just got to win. We can wait till Kyrie comes back to try and be pretty. Right now, we just need a win. We need I need a max win. I need a max win. They got big farm ads in Mexico. Uh when does Kyrie come back? Apparently he could be back this year like before the end of this calendar year which is weird. We’ll talk about that tomorrow. Insane. I don’t know if it’s just hyperbolic speaking or just kind of talking to talk or they’re being serious. I have no idea. Yeah, Coupe does try to play too fast and is not intentional enough with his finishes, but he’s going to develop crazy. He’s got so much raw talent. You got to reel it in. His coffee is working. I hope Flag gets together. He can go off when he’s efficient. Yeah. Here we go. DLO bringing the ball down over to Max Chissy. Topi guard by Duncan Robinson. Finds Dwight Pal. Dwight Pal guard by Duran trying to find DLo. Gets to the handoff. DLO driving right on Duncan Robinson goes up with a toe with a soft floater. Miss is rebounded by Caris Levert bringing the ball down. Goes right at Naji Marshall. Pulls up the mid-range over Dwight. That’s Caris Levert. Tough shot and he made it. 1317. We got Max Christy over to Naji Marshall. Naj with the ball. Hands off. Oh, fake handoff over to Dwight Pal on the wing. Guarded by Duran. We get a switch over to DLo. DLo with the ball guarded by Duncan Robinson. Finds PJ on the wing. PJ pump fakes put the ball on the floor. Euros a crazy push floater and it’s good. 1517. And PJ keeps it alive and we got ourselves a foul. Yeah. Uh, Pistons want to do too much. PJ so tough. Very. PJ likes the contact. Like he likes running into people like a bull in a china shop. Is our ball. I like Peterson because he can do everything. PJ got that Euro bag. It’s It’s been working all season. Like he barrels his way to the paint. I love it. Just straight bully ball. All right. Who’s shooting free throws? Dwight Pal. You better have Dwight. Yeah, make Dwight Pal shoot every free throw. I love it. PJ is our most dependable player. Him and Max Christie have been so consistent, but honestly, it really is um it really is. Um uh PJ, I’m tripping. I’m sorry. It’s so late. I’m tired. Yeah, Max Christie and PJ’s been great, but PJ’s been like the most consistent thing. Yeah, there was one game where he didn’t shoot his free throws that well. There was another game where he had a lot of turnovers, but other than that, like he was consistent. Uh Dwight Pal makes a free throw. We love it for him. Kade couldn’t hand bring the ball down. 16 to 17. Mavs down by one. Kade with the ball off a double screen. PJ’s on him. They swing it to the top. Hand it off. They shoot a three over NI. No good. Way off the backboard. Rebounded by D’Angelo Russell. Now we’re running the floor. Dera with the ball. Oh, tries to get Max Christie with the cut, but it goes out of bounds. They’re saying it is Pistons ball. Max like, “I didn’t freaking touch it, bro.” He’s like, “I didn’t.” Okay, Arbball. Yeah, I didn’t touch it. I used to have hair like Max Christy, believe it or not. I used to have hair like Max Christy, believe it or not. Oh, man. Oh, man. All right. We need proof halftime. I got you. I’ll have to find it, but I got you. All right. We inbound to Max Christie. Over to Dwight Powell. Dwight Paloo on the wing. Finds DLo. Top of the key. Over to PJ. PJ. Oh, is Dwight down low with the slam. Yeah. All right, Dwight. Oh, Dwight about to go crazy. Oh, I already know. I already know. Dwight going crazy tonight. K with the ball guarded by Naji. Gets double down low. They get a easy pass off the backboard. We need a better job on the defend on the perimeter. I’m sorry, on the interior. D lo to Ni. Naji Heroes out to Christy. Oh, but it goes out of bounds. Pistons ball. It’s all good. It’s all good. Dwight Pal with the Yeah, PJ found Dwight with the Yeah, punch that mug. Yeah, Dwight Pal moving different this year. That’s what I’m saying, bro. All right, K with the ball. Pass tip. PJ gets Oh, no. They get it back. The pass. Oh, they get an alleyoop. All right. 2118. Come on, guys. Turnovers. Watch what we doing. Watch what we doing. We have no interior defense whatsoever. We’re afraid to play the paint and that’s crazy because that’s the only thing we’re good at. Anyway, Dwight Pal back to DLo. Dwight Pal setting strong screens. DLo with the ball. Gets fouled. DLo knows how to draw fouls. Bro, we got to hustle better. Yeah, we honestly like this game is close and I feel like we can really hang if we fix the interior. Bro, they’re not going to shoot the lights out from three cuz what the Pistons as a team is one of five from three. We’re three of six. So, cool. Don’t put too much pressure on the perimeter. Bring it back into the interior. DLO misses the first free throw. Is Eduardo Nira there? I have no idea. Soul Glow. It wasn’t that Solo, but it was but it was curly. I lowkey Max Christie. I see Brandon Williams checking in. Yes, sir. We got B Nugs checking in. We got Backwoods Williams. Hey. All right. He makes the second one. These miss free throws going to kill me. Yeah, we’re getting cooked by a scrub again. It happens. All right, Kade Cunningham bring the ball down. Guarded by Naji. Passes to the wing. Guarded by B will back to Cade over to Duran. Guarded by Dwight. He’s gonna try to drive on Dwight. And they’re calling a foul on Dwight. Crazy. Backwood. Will. Yeah. Backwoods Williams. Yeah. They said marijuana is Brandon Williams performance-enhancing drug. Dwight Pal is like, “Bro, I’m the nicest guy in the league. How did I value you, bro? I average like one a year.” All right. All right, Piston’s going to inbound. Over to Levert. Back to Cade. Kade guarded by DLo. B Will’s on there as well. Over to Levert. Levert driving on DLo, but DL’s playing some T defense. Dumps it. Oh, good steal by Naji and DLo. Good team effort. DLO with the ball. Bring it down in transition. Dlo over to PJ. PJ wide open for the 3J. Ah, no good. Oh, Dwight Pal almost with the putback dunk. There we go. Dwight. Yeah. Come on now. Come on, Dwight. Yo, they’ve been holding Dwight back. Yeah, Dwight Pal has been holding back. They They said the league not ready for Dwight Pal, baby. Come on now. Deep pity. Let’s go. D is actually good on Deep trying to tell people. I need Pal to get that, bro. Come on now, Dwight. Come on now, Dwight. Dwight trying to catch a body. I love it. I love it. And I trust Dwight Pal with the free throws. Let’s see it. makes the first one. What’ I say? Love Dwight Pal, man. Dwight yam that on him, bro. Don’t miss. That’s what I’m saying, man. On a head top. On a head top. Come on now, Dwight. And he was running to the rim, too. Like he was ready for the miss for the putback. Like Dwight is if Dwight averaged like 10 and eight a game, he’d be amazing as a backup big bro. Do I think he can do that? In certain circumstances, I think Dwight can do that. I I I don’t know. I don’t think Dwight’s as bad as people say he is. But anyway, Pistons bring the ball down. We’re We’re applying fullcourt pressure after the two makes from Dwight. Cage shoots in the mid-range. Completely misses. Rebounded by Dwight over to DLo. DLo want to run the floor over Naji. There we go. Half court offense. There we go. Naji goes up. Tough shot and he gets it in. There we go. Naj Mavs up 23-21. Kes bring the ball down. They’re pushing the pace. They pass to Levert with the reverse layup. Way off. Rebound by PJ over DLO. Over to B will be B will. He’s about to slow it down. He finds DL. Do with a deep three. Oh my gosh. Why would he take that shot? All right. All right. That’s cool. That’s cool. That’s cool. Deal. Hanging out with Clay too much. Yeah. A little bit too much confidence, but we got Cooper flag back in. He’s with the younger squad, so we should see some good results. Uh, fun fact, Cooper plays better with Dwight Pal. All right. The pass was tipped by Brandon Williams. Goes out of bounds. Good job, B will. He could have stole that. Please put flag. What is this trash deep three? I have no idea what that was. Brick Angelo Russell. It’s the shooting is so bad, but everything else is so good. Luga was a backpack to Dwight Pow. Don’t let them rewrite history. You guys are crazy. All right, K with the ball getting double team. They pass it to Isaiah Stewart who just runs right at Cooper. Gets his own tip back in. Cooper is not NBA ready as far as his size. He’s not like he doesn’t have his NBA body yet. I’ve been seeing him getting bullied way too much. Cooper the ball. Top of the key. Takes the go-ahead three wide open and he makes it. There we go. Cooper. Hey, there you go, baby. Knock them shots down, baby. Get lit. Cooper guarding Harris on the wing. Pass to Cade. Coupe steps up to guard Kade. Step back pass to Tobias Harris. Guard by Naji. Going to drive on Naji. Goes up. They’re calling a foul. Ah, kind of lame. That’s a weak whistle. Kid is better than JBR staff this game so far. I like what I’m seeing. All right, so we got a timeout. What I’m liking so far is the offense. Good quality shots. They’re going in. Shout out to Dwight Pal. Dwight Pal is providing very good interior presence. And I love the fact that we’re going to Dwight Pal instead of PJ at the five. These are This is a good lineup. What we have is good. Let’s keep it going. Flag being raised in Mexico City. Yes, sir. Coup might be the next Ben Simmons. Ah, weak foul. Yeah. Uh, what are you rooting for? Blue Jays Daughters. Blue Jays, baby. Uh, kid is making good subs. He is. I like these rotations. These lineups are good. Shout out to Clay. I ain’t gonna I ain’t gonna not give the man his flowers. Dwight Pal, you have seen my You haven’t seen my final form. Yep. Shout out to my boy Dwight Pal. Dwight Pal got so much motion. I’m sorry y’all. My nose. I ain’t got no tissues up here. I’m dying. Y’all cool if I run and grab like some toilet paper real quick to blow my nose. I promise I’ll be right back. And matter of fact, like the stream. I’m not coming back to the stream. Has 100 likes. You only have 84 likes. Like the stream. I’ll be right back. I lied. The stream only has 85 likes. You guys hate me. Sorry. Sorry, I have to like blow my nose on stream. Okay, unlock the stream, you guys. You guys suck. Oh man, allergies kicking my butt, guys. But we got a commercial. What are you liking so far from this game? What do you like or what you don’t like? Talk to me, chat. Talk to me. Just mean or does Coupe not have that dog in him? I just think it’s this the NBA body. He’s He’s getting bullied, bro. I think that’s what it is. And like everything else looks fine. He’s fine. I think Cooper’s fine, but eventually we’re going to have like we’re going to have to have real honest conversations about him and people are going to be upset. People are going to quickly say he’s only 18, he’s a rookie. I get that, but like number one pick, high expectations, right? Just saying. I’m worried Coop is the next Ben Simmons. I don’t think he’s that bad. And Ben Simmons wasn’t bad his rookie year. It was like later in his career. The coffee ain’t working. I’m trying, bro. trying. No rebounds. How are we How are we rebounding? Uh, as a team, we have eight rebounds. They’ve got five. No, we have five. They have eight. Uh, it’s really bad. Two, four, six, eight. Yeah. No, both teams have eight. I think we’re fine. I can’t count. So, Ben Simmons shoots threes now. No. But, um, let me see what our turnovers look like. As a team, we have one turnover. They have one as well. Let’s keep that going. I never really know what the hell’s going on. You sound like me, bro. You sound like me. Coops ATM time. Yeah, but we also want to hold our players accountable. You know what I mean? We don’t want to be delusional. Call like you see it, but give them grace. It’s a balance. All right, they’re shooting free throws. Tobias Harris makes the first one. This has been Coup’s worst game so far in my opinion. He looks off. Yeah, a lot of those shots were just hitting straight backboard. Miz, what player could you compare Dwight Pal to on another team in terms of love by fans and tenure? Um, I feel like Dwight Pal really hasn’t gotten love from the fans until like last year or maybe this year. There were a lot of fans that just did not like Dwight Pal. But in comparison of what he should be, Dwight Pal should be a Udonis Hasslam. Be will attacks the basket. No good. We keep it alive. Flag with the ball. Finds B will in the corner. Be Will pump fakes. Drives. Dumps it. Oh, to Naji. Naji keeps it alive. Over to Martin. Over to Flag. Flag to Bwill in the corner for three. Ah, rolled in and out. That was such a good sequence. Be Will loves to attack and I love it. Why do they like Powell? Because they expect him to produce and it they bring up his contract and well Dwight Pal gets a lot of hate. I used to joke about it and people thought I was serious. I’m like, “No, I actually love Dwight Pal. I just kind of joke about him.” All right, Pistons keep the ball alive, but we commit a foul. Pistons ball. Be will smoke the layup to be blunt. I’m liking how Max Christie has been has been contributing. Yeah, very consistent. I think that’s the one thing that we just as fans at the very least should expect from players is consistency. If you have a bad game, you have a bad game, but miss a shot here or there is okay. But as long as overall you’re looking pretty good, then we’re good. But anyway, 2625 uh Alert Assur Thompson shooting free throws makes the first one. Sorry if I mispronounced his name. I got to sneeze. Oh my god. Sorry. Bless me. What? Four maps out rebound by one osore Thompson. Yeah, bless you. Thank you. Andy Davis, Caleb Martin 23. Second round for Deon Simos. Link Mug send it. They miss the second free throw, but they get the ball back. It’s 26-26. Tobias Harris throws up a floater in the mid-range, but it’s no good. They try to dunk on Gaffer, but it’s no good. Rebounded by Naji. Naji to Brandon Williams. Brandon Williams going to drive. Tries to dump it to Caleb Martin. Cooper Coop on the wing off screen from Gaff. Gets the switch back to Caleb Martin. Caleb Martin. Back to Coupe. Coupe going to switch it over to Caleb. Caleb keeps it alive. Over to Brandon Williams. Pump fake. Trying to drive. Goes up. Gets fouled. There you go. Good job, Be will. Woo. There’s applying extreme pressure on the perimeter. Mexico is higher altitude, especially southern Mexico. All right. I’m turning my subtitles off. I don’t need the subtitles. I can see the game. Tie game. We got a minute and a half left in the first quarter. not too upset by this. Honestly, y’all may not agree. It’s probably the best start to a game we’ve had all season. All right, Brandon Williams makes the first one. Like, I’m not mad with how we’re playing right now, but second, third quarter will be very telling. First quarter is always just letting him get warmed up. Second, third is just seeing how they go. Fourth quarter is how they close. Be so tough. Oh yeah. Shoots a second free throw. Misses. Rebounded by Isaiah Stewart. Gaff got to watch out. All right, a sore Thompson bring the ball down. Guarded by B will over to Tobias Harris. Guard by Kayla Martin back to Thompson. Oh, there’s a foul. Be will’s got to be crafty on the defense. Kyrie Jr. cooking of course. Hey, is Cooper playing soft a little bit? Good. Be will. All right. Pistons shooting free throws. Can’t be too mad. We’ve been blessed by free throws early this season. Let the Pistons get theirs. Yeah, soft whistle. Yeah. All right, we got some free throws. He misses the first free throw. Ball don’t lie. Stewart is a guy with anger issues. Yeah, Isaiah Stewart. And the second free throw is good. They split them. Tie game 27-27. DLO bringing the ball down. Feels like it’s halftime, bro. Low key. It’s cuz it’s late. I’m dying. DLO with the ball getting pressured by Thompson. Screen set by Gaff. Oo, cut to Coop as he passed. Okay, pass all around. DLO for three. Ah, miss. Oh, Pistons ball. Good lord. It was a good little motion. Look, Coupe needs to stop playing so damn passive, bro. Did y’all see that? He cut and he still passed. like you’re under the basket. I’m not always going to be mad about making the extra pass to keep the ball moving, but like, bro, take the easy shot. All right, Thompson goes up right on Gaff. I think Gaff got a hand on it. Rebounded by DLo. We’re pu we’re pushing in transition. Finds Naji on the wing. Naji brings it back to DLo. DLO to Coupe. Coup’s going to drive right on to Stewart. Goes out of bounds. Arbball. Chat. Chat. What’s going on? All right. Do with the ball. We inbound it to Gaffford. Gaffford swings it to Naji. Naji off screen from Gaff. Naji for three. Naji. Oh yeah, the shots falling tonight, baby. Shots falling tonight. I need that. 30-27 Mavs up. They’re going to drive baseline on on Caleb Martin. No good. Rebounded by Gaff. Over to DLo. Do bring the ball down over to Caleb Martin. Swings it to Coupe. Coup traveled. Yep. Time we have a conversation. It’s time we had a conversation. He needs his welcome to NBA moment so he can be comfortable with the physicality. He’ll be fine. I don’t know. This kind of soft coup kind of soft. I’m sorry. I’m trying not to be mean. But man. All right. Cade with the ball. Guard by Max Christie. Top of Kia as they kill the clock. Two seconds. Separate shot clock. Game clock off a screen from Isaiah Stewart. Gaffford’s on. Cade falls to the floor. No foul called. They kick it to the corner. They take a three. No good. Cuz they suck. Rebounded by Max Christie. A second left. Last second. Heave by Christy. No good. All right. 30 to 27. Mavs up by three to finish the first quarter. pretty good start. Um, what I’ve liked so far is the offense doesn’t look half ass. Um, the defense, however, the interior is killing us. The perimeter, I think, is fine. They just got to step it up on the inside. I think Dwight Pal did a good job. And I’m not trying to say Dwight Pal’s better than Gaffer, but Gaffer is obviously coming back. I’m hearing cop cars, but um, obviously, uh, this is Gaffer’s first game of the season. You know, it’s going to take a while, but I like what I’m seeing from uh Dwight. Love what I’m seeing from Christy. Flag gota wake up. Wake up, Mr. Flag. Uh Mavs flop first pick. There going to be so many players in that draft better than him. Need to rebound better and stop turnovers. Uh how many turnovers we have? I think we have like two, three turnovers. We have two. Yeah, we have two turnovers. So, not bad. Uh rebounding, both teams are at 13. Just got to step it up. We’re doing pretty good. The offense looked fine. The defense was bad. Way too many dunks and layups for them to know easy as the interior. That’s what it sucked. Clay not happy about getting benched. Sucks. Suck. Play better. Coupe needs to realize that kid isn’t going to help him along. It’s totally up to him. We should be up by 10. I’m surprised we’re by three. Also, terrible line. Multiple offensive boards for them even off free throws. Yeah, they kept getting the the free throw miss. But it is what is. Coup needs to digest all the pistol P dribble drills. flag just playing passive. He’s scared to shoot and go to the hole. Yeah, I need him to try to finish every single time. This is a huge win for us if we win. Oh yeah. If we win, it starts to like bring things together because you have to also understand like if players keep losing games that kind of kills their confidence and their motivation, their drive. Once when you get a few wins in, start to get a little bit of a momentum. Lowkey, I wanted VJ during the draft. I’m a big VJ fan. To be fair to Flag, this is the worst I see him this season. Yeah. Yeah. But shout out to Klay Thompson. Hit his threes. It’s all I really ask of him. It’s all I ask. Anyway, appreciate you guys being here. We got 345 people in the chat. You guys are awesome. all here late on a Saturday late on a Saturday. Eventually throughout the season, I’m going to have a TV here playing the game so y’all can see it. I need to like get a stand. We would have been mad if we picked VJ over Flag. Let it all work out. That’s very true. If we had picked VJ, man, there would have been another riot. Like, what? You’re supposed to get Cooper. Why? If Mav drafted VJ, imagine Coop with the Spurs and dang, he would lowkey fit there better. Coaching has a thing, you know, plays a strong part in it. You’re too a thanks, man. Kid needs to force it on flag. I don’t see him do that anymore. Maybe time goes forward or backwards. Blow my mind. Let’s be real. If we start winning without aiding Kyrie, I can’t complain. I’m just happy with wins. Don’t care how I get him. I’m sorry. I just don’t see Fly being good. Maybe a role player. I just don’t get the hype. So, I haven’t seen anything from the kid as much as he was praised. Give it time. Unfortunately, I and I’m not even saying that to like give him an excuse or an out. I truly do think that like time will tell how good he is. I I I don’t think that uh I don’t think that Cooper Flag is like an instant like instant ramen like like straight out the box he’s great. He’s like, “Okay, get him out the box. Got to put him together and then he’ll be great.” But we’ll see. Anyway, Pistons ball. They get to Duncan Robinson. Pump face on Gaff. Shoots over Gaff. Completely misses over Gaff. Rebound by PJ. Big board. Over to DLo. We’re running in transition. Finds Clay. Clay finds Christy in the corner. Christy wants to drive. Dumps it out to Gaff in the Oh, sorry. Caleb Martin in the corner. Caleb finds Clay. Clay for three. Short rebound by the Pistons. Good ball movement. Just got to finish those shots. Cade Cunningham has the ball. Guard by Max Christie. PJ’s there for a double. They get it to Who’s that? Levert on the wing. Or is that Jaylen Durn? Jaylen Durn. Kade with the ball, finds Dur. Duran’s going to drive. Goes right up on PJ with a floater. No good. PJ gets the board. Crazy good board. Max Christy is bringing the ball down. Oh, pass to Clay. Back to Christy. Christy to DLO. DLO all alone for the three though. No good. Rebounded by Cade. Kade bringing the ball down. Crossing up people. Kade attacks the basket. Gets a tough bucket. Kades really good. All right. DLo bringing the ball down. calling a play, telling people where to go. Picks up his dribble. Gotta find somebody. Gets to PJ. PJ back to DLo. PJ for the switch. Gets PJ in transition and he dunks on Isaiah Stewart. Two hands for safety. Love to see it. PJ deal shot selection looks better though. Deal’s never been great. You stop it. All the deal hate is crazy. All right, we got ourselves a foul somewhere. Yeah, shout out to PJ for just attacking the basket. He got that get back for Cade who just scored on him. He’s like, I’mma score right back. Shout out to Page. All right. Uh Pistons inbound to Duncan over to Cade. Cade guard by PJ. Max Christiey’s there for help. They dump it to the corner for a three and they miss again. Rebound by Clay. Clay with the ball bringing it down. Clay off screen from PJ. Clay kick it back to PJ. PJ to Clay. Clay picks up the damn dribble over to DLo for the deep three and he makes it. There we go. DLO. DLO from three though. Come on now. Come on now. But yeah, watch when Clay touches the ball and how everything stops. Can someone tell this idiot to stop checking threes? Shh. They go in. All right. Duncan Robinson attacks. Oh, that blocked by PJ, but Isaiah Stewart gets it back and gets fouled by DLo. Ah, it’s a three-point play if he can convert. I don’t care if he made one. Ah, get them rebounds. Yeah, shoot or shoot. I hear so much noise outside my window. I have no idea what’s going on. Is it weird that white people are the Whoa, that’s weird. Beef stew cooking ball on Y. He missed the free throw. Rebound by DLo. Bring the ball down. DL want to drive. They’re they’re applying big pressure. PJ setting a screen. Getting that switch over to to Caleb. Caleb going to drive. Throws up a floater. Gets fouled. Shooting two. There you go. There you go. All right. Caleb Martin shooting free throws. Damian Angelo Russell. What kind of 1850 statement is that? Oh. All right. Makes the first one. Time for the game to shoot his free throws. The game. Haven’t seen anything from the game in a while. All right. Makes the first one, which I love. And he makes a second one. There we go. He doesn’t really have much of an arch. I like Luga, but if I see another comment about him doing better in Coupe, not I’m going to start Luca hating. All right, Marcel, who’s your favorite NFL team? Uh, the Saints. I’m born and raised. Foul on the floor. Am I the only kid Martin believer? Probably. Probably. I don’t know what it is, man, but watching the Mavs has just been irritating me lately. It’s It’s because they’re not seeing their best. you’re not getting the best out of them. Even tonight’s game, like we’re doing a good job, but there’s something in the back of your head. It’s like, man, they could be better. All right, Pistons inbound to Cade. Cade guarding Ca guarded by Caleb. Shoots over PJ. PJ got a hand on it. Rebounded by Clay. Okay, I need to like look out my window. I hear so much noise. So, who’s outside? Caleb. Oh, I’m sorry. Clay passes to Dlo. Do with the ball. Calls a screen from Christy. Swings it to Max. Max going to drive. Oh, got blocked by Isaiah Stewart. There’s Kade going the other way with it. Euros on DLO. Was that a foul or was that a turnover? Was that a charge? What’ you do, DLO? All right, y’all. Let me check. What the heck is going on outside, bro? There’s a bunch of What the hell is this, bro? There’s like hella cars outside of my house right now. Are my neighbors throwing a freaking razor? What’s everybody doing? Is there a party happening down here? Bro, it’s November 1st, not Halloween. What is everybody doing? I am genuinely confused.

Passing it to Duncan. Takes a three over Max. They’re saying it’s a foul. So, what happens when 80 don’t play? I have no idea. Is this what happens when 80 doesn’t play? You know what? I’m about to ask my uh Oh, they’re throwing a Halloween party in a vacant house out here. That’s what they’re doing. Geez. Yeah, they’re throwing a they’re throwing a party in some of the abandoned houses. Not abandoned, but like the houses that aren’t done being built. They’re throwing parties out there. Freaking idiots. But anyway, they’re looking at the three. And he did foul. But they make the first two. I don’t care if it’s Day of the Dead, bro. Like all these kids out here.

There’s cars just parked up and down the street. People just walking in the middle of the freaking street, bro. Someone called the cops. Like, you’re going in these empty houses to throw part.

Call the cops. We are fine. Can’t shoot all. Go hit my southern video property, bro. Like I’m I’m not cool with this. I remember when I was young and doing all types of weird stuff, but now I’m now I’m old. Now it’s my turn to to to to end the fun. Like they’re parking in front of people’s houses, bro. God, they lucky I’m streaming right now. I go out there. Bro’s about to throw hands. They don’t want this. Get the blick ready. Stay ready. Where you live? I need a party. Hey, apparently Sag and all gets popping. I know I’m crashing out for no reason, but this team drives me crazy. We’ll be all right. It’s all about the journey, Den. It’s all about the journey. It’s not about where you are, it’s where you’re going. Where are we going? I don’t know. I have no idea. They literally do the dumbest. Yeah, it’s the mass, baby. It’s our identity. It’s who we are. Oh wow. 22 hours ago, someone posted saying, “The cops are breaking up a big high school party in the new section again at Sutton Ridge and Laneyville. Maybe another vacant house between 15 minutes. I had to drive through and then come back to go home. There probably 50 to 75 teenagers everywhere standing on the corners in the streets, parked in multiple streets, driving through our neighborhood. It was literally unsafe to drive carefully through the street. One almost hit my car, flinging their door open. It was so unsafe. I called into the police again. They said they needed more backup to clear the neighborhoods out. Please call it into if your witness is currently and request more police support. Good God. Jeez Louise. All these kids. It would be different if it was just like a group of kids. Like when I tell you like it’s probably like 20 to 30 cars parked on my street. Absolutely madness. Do a column. I don’t know. I don’t know. Good. Maybe some law and orders needed. Look, I I remember when I was that age doing dumb stuff, so I get it, but like get out my house. Get out of my street. This is absurd. Someone needs to get fired. The statue of Dwight the goat looks more like Dirk than the goat. Dwight, pal, y’all crazy. Big expectations go down. What’s up, my What’s good, bro? Call the cops. I don’t want to be no snitch. I’ll call him after the stream. 23. Yeah, that’s what I’m saying. Like 23 cars just parked my street. I think we live in the same neighborhood, bro. Where you live? All right. Naj with the ball in the corner is going to drive. Pump fake out to Brandon Williams in the corner for three. Ah, missed. Rebounded by the Pistons. All right, Pistons going right back. Coupe misses. They try to get the put back. A whole bunch of misses. Dwight Pal gets the rebound over to Brandon Williams. The Cooper flag. Cooper flag. One-on-one. Can you score, young man? It’s a 1v3. You lose the ball. Come on. It’s out of bounds. It’s our ball, but still Coupe. Dang, man. That That should have been an easy bucket. A one-on-one situation, but you slowed down to 1v3. Naji Marshall with the inbound. Trying to find the open man. Over to Clay. Clay for a catch and shoot three out the corner. No good. Rebounded by Tobias Harris. Tobias Harris. Guard by Dwight. Over to Duncan Robinson. Back to Tobias Harris. Guard by Dwight on the perimeter. Why we have Coupe guarding Jaylen Dur is weird. Anyway, we fouled Tobias Harris is shooting free throws. Invite him to the stream. Nah. Cooper should be more aggressive, bro. This is for my own perspective. This is just another bad game from Coupe. All right. Tobias Harris shooting free throws. makes the first one. I say Harper’s better than Coupe. I think VJ right now looks like the best player of the draft. All right, they make both free throws. So, tie game. Brandon Williams bring the ball down. Haven’t scored in a while. We’ve also been fouling. Brandon Williams drives. Pump fake. Pump fake out to Coupe. Coupe on the wing. Guard by Tobias. Slowing it down. It’s going to drive right on him. Dumps it out to Clay. They’re calling a foul though. Coupe is young. He’s playing out of position. I eventually the excuses will stop. I’m gonna say Coupe should be drafted by Dallas on third pick on first round or other way around and picking VGH at this point. I got a better plus than Coop. I ain’t doing anything, man. Bro, get these freaking kids out of here, dog. All right, Naji Marshall with the ball over to Brandon Williams out the inbound to bad pass by Brandon Williams. Gets turned over by Thompson brother. Got it. Pass to Dur guarded by B will over to Tobias Harris. Guard by Naji B will there for the double. Harris over to Durn. Guarded by Gaff. Come on, Gaff. Square up with him. He’s going to spin on you. Spins and scores. Pistons gain the lead. Interesting, bro. Get these kids out of here, dog. All right. Pistons shooting free throws. All right. Please dispatch to tow vehicle parked in the front of your house with license plate in 93. Are y’all crazy? Naji Marshall with the ball after the made free throws. Oh, finds gaff. There’s a foul somewhere. Thank you. We’re getting manhandled out here. I think without AD Coupe is his time to shine, right? Supposed to be. Supposed to be. Hi, Merc. What’s good, Gina? How you doing? They have double our free throws. That’s a big problem. All right, we’re going to inbound it to Gaff. He’s at the top. Gives it to Clay as he cuts for an easy layup for two. 445. Mavs down by one. Not sure how they got 45 though. They had 44. Luca didn’t even have a three ball till the last two years. All right, Pistons ball guarded by Clay on the wing. Finds uh Duncan Robinson, guarded by Brandon Williams, who’s just trying his best. Duncan Robinson attacks the basket, but Jaylen Duran gets the put back dunk. Gaff, what are we doing? Coupe needs a vet. He’s got plenty of vets. It’s What more does he need? Coup’s playing like Wim is still in the paint, bro. Brandon whs the ball over to Gaff. Gaff hands off to Clay off a screen. Clay’s going to drive. Throws up the running floater miss. They just clobber. Gaff gets knocked over a lot. A lot of over the backs that don’t get called dur Tobias Harris for a dunk. 4449. Maybe we need to put Coupe on the bench. Maybe that’s why we’re losing. N with the ball off screen from Gaff. Like where’s Max Christie? There he’s checking in. Clay with the ball off screen from Gaff. Takes the three. All right, Clay, you’re cold now. 0% chance I’m watching the second half. I’m going to bed at this hour. Crazy. Tobias Harris gets the and one bump layup. Just throwing out ideas. This would be a good time for I don’t know a timeout. Yeah. Well, we already called like one earlier. They’re beating on gaff. They are. Flag needs to take a month off and hit the gym real hard. Anyway, Tobias Harris shooting free throws. He missed. All right. Rebounded by Flag. Flag with the ball on the wing. Swings over to be Will. Be Will for three. Clunk. Rebounded by Thompson brother. throws it to Tobias Harris who pump fakes on PJ. Drives, dumps it to Thompson down low, guarded by Gaff, brings it to the wing to Kade who drives on Christy. Back out to Thompson the corner for a three and they make it 44 to 54. Just like that, we’re down by 10. Timeout called. Put DLo in. Who was our point guard? Was it Brandon Williams? Wasn’t working. Let’s get some plus minuses. Let’s see what the advanced stats say about the Mavs. Uh, the worst plus minus is Cooper Flag, a minus 17. The best plus minus is DeAndre Russell, a plus N. After that, Caleb Martin a plus four. I’m sorry, plus five. Not good. Not good. Coupe has been horrible in the plus minus for us like all season. His plus minus has been abysmal and it’s got to it’s got to show something. Down by 10 just like that, brother. There it goes. And this is what happens when your offense is second worst from, you know, in in in the league. This is what happens when you have the second worst offense in the NBA. This is what it looks like. Bro, Cooper playing like Julian Newman. Coupe not looking so generational. Nope. What a waste of my time. Yeah, this team wasn’t built for him. Yeah, I’m not saying like Cooper’s trash or that Cooper is like I truly do think that like we’re we’re not doing right by Cooper in my opinion. But then again, I’m seeing him like just be passive. like the whole extra passing, the not wanting to finish or not just like, bro, he ain’t really doing what he’s supposed to do. It’s weird. Coupe looking like Ben Simmons, man. All right, all the kids are leaving now. The cops came. Thank god. Get him out of here. Good game. Pretty much kiss from here. Nah, we’ll see. It’s not how you start, it’s how you finish. We do need better offense. Yeah, our offense sucks. Our offense is god awful. Abysmal. This quarter, this quarter we’re getting outscored 14 to 27. Flag thinny ban. Oh boy. Coupe might be worse than Sim’ all crazy. Cooper flag worse than Leum Jr. They need a finish like error 15. Bro, give me a scorer. Detroit is on a 21-2 run over the last four and a four four and a half minutes. Four a 21-2 run. God, I hate these kids, bro. But I hate these kids. Someone tweeted out, “The Mavericks just playing like it’s an open gym. The identity takes on the identity of whoever is able to score at the time. That’s kind of true. It’s like on any given night, we we just try to play different every night. That’s so stupid. But being 12 of 20 from the free throw line is actually insane for them. Wish we uh got to the line that much. They got 36 points in the paint. 36 of the Pistons 54 points are in the paint. Interior defense, is that a priority? You see it killing you. How do you fix it? You don’t. Brandon wins the ball on the wing. Finds Coupe guarded by Cade. He’s going to gets fouled. Hold on to his hip. Doesn’t defense win championships. Lie. Williams playing like dog crap. If this were Hardy, he’d be yanked already. And that’s fair, too. I’m telling you, the coach, the one coach exposed Cooper’s game on YouTube. You should react to it. It’s pretty much summed up by Cooper wasn’t ready. All right, Dwight Pal hands off to Brandon Williams. Williams with the ball. Step back long two goes down. There we go. Be will be B will hit the baseline. Dwight Pal sucks. You tripping. All right. Pisses with the ball. Thompson guarded by Coupe. Over to Jaylen Duran, guarded by Dwight Pal. Hands off to Cade. Oh, Cade beats the defense. Goes up on PJ. Good block stolen by uh Max Christy. Dumps it to Coupe. Coupe. Is that a charge? Was that a foul? Okay, it’s a it’s a foul. Oh, I was about to say I don’t think Coop have a good game. He’s always struggling like one of those second round picks. It’s like we’re almost forcing him to to play better. All right, Cooper makes the first free throw. Rookie of the year. Edgecom probably crap. Mavs. I’m mad because I thought they are contender. Now Coupe need to step up like he did in preseason. Yep. I don’t think Cooper Flag have a good Yeah, that one. All right, Cooper flag made both 48 to 54. Let’s see what we can do. Kade couldn’t bring the ball down. Cooper only gets better when the game is late. Honestly, that’s what I’ve seen. A three from Tobias Harris is good. 48 to 57. Good lord. Playing from behind. We love it. Max Christie bring the ball down over to Cooper. Flag. Cooper guarded by Cade. Hands off to PJ. PJ spins to the basket. Bullies his way in. Dumps it out to Brandon Williams. Pump fakes. Goes a baseline drive. goes up right on Duncan Robinson for the layup. Coupe, can you do that? Did y’all just see how Brandon Williams attacked Duncan Robinson? Can Cooper do that? And now it’s a turnover. Ar ball. Let’s score again. Let’s go. Who said B will should have been pulled? Kid sucks. That calm cool coach and crabby. Nope. Because kid allows other guards to play like crap. If it’s Hardy who makes one turnover, he’s benched. Sh. It’s fair. Coupe is a first pick. He deserves criticism. Everybody is No player is free from criticism in my opinion. No, Cooper plays too soft. I don’t know why he couldn’t just attack. Like, just attack, bro. Attack the basket. Get to the line. That’s what I’m saying. Coupe needs to hit the weight room. Max Christie with a three off the inbound. Bang. All right. That’s what I’m talking about. Max Christie for three. It’s my guy. Come on now. All right. Cade Cunningham. A baseline jumper over B will no good. Swatted back. Saved by Cooper. Cooper bringing the ball down. Cooper backing down. Thompson trying to find a way. Spins. Goes up. Oh, missed the layup. Okay. Tobias hair is guarded by PJ. Gets it to Thompson on the elbow. Spins. Post move on Coupe and he misses. Rebound by Cooper Flag. We’re going to push the ball. Cooper over to PJ. PJ back to Coupe. It’s Tobias Harris. He’s old. Take it. Here’s Max Chrissy with a screen. Switch. Coupe for three. Oh, okay. Okay. Okay. I’m reloading. Let’s go. Just keep knocking down your shots. King Cooper just knock your shots. All right. K with the ball over to Isaiah Stewart, guarded by Dwight Pal. Over to Tobias Harris, guard by PJ. through pass stolen by Coupe. Good steal. PJ’s bringing it down. Oh, PJ with the good handles in transition. PJ dumps out to be Will for the three. There we go. And we’re back. Just like that. Be Will for three. Yeah, buddy. Back. Woods beat Nugs. Just like that, we’re back in the lead. Wild. What did we do? I don’t know. I I don’t know. I don’t know. Anyway, timeout called. Oh man. Hold on. Make about I’m about to make a phone call real quick. Hold on. Okay. Okay. So, there was a bunch of cars, and by a bunch, I mean like 20 to 30 cars parked down our street and down the other way. Um, yes. One of the empty houses, they were throwing a party and like people were calling cops. Well, I don’t see them out front anymore. All the cars peeled off. I’m looking right now. I don’t see any cars out front. Oh, you Oh, you were talking to the neighbors. I hate these kids. Good. Like, good. Apparently cops get called, but they say that that we that they don’t have enough backup to to clear out all the kids. Absolutely crazy. Yeah, I hate it. Absolutely hate it. But all right, I’m I’m old and crotchy now, but I gotta go back to the stream. I’ll talk to you later. Bye. All right, we’re back. Neighborhood watch Marcel. That’s me. Dunan Robinson for a three over Coupe. Misses rebounded by Dwight Pal because he’s like that. Coupe brings the ball down. Can’t take on his Cops can’t take on kids. They say that that that they don’t have a backup. There’s too many kids. Coupe with the ball. Drives on Thompson. Dumps it to Okay, there’s a foul. I thought I said Coupe was ready to pass instead of just trying to finish. I hate that. Give the kids with some boost, man. All right, we got 22 seconds left in this quarter. Coupe shooting free throws. What a crazy game, ain’t it? Ain’t it fun living in the Coupe world? We just went on a 16 and three run. Absolutely insane. Coupe makes the first free throw. Love it. Go. Coupe gota understand not everyone good on offense. Yeah, like he you’re trusting your team a tad bit too much, Coupe. Just a tad bit, but like I like it though. Jaylen Durn has 17 points. Yeah, no one on our team has double digits. Everyone’s just kind of doing whatever. All right, Coupe makes both and is not a crash out for no reason. Matchfield by 20. I don’t know. Like these teams that we thought were bad aren’t that bad anymore. All right, Cade with the ball guarded by Caleb Martin. 24 of 34 are crazy. All right, Kade with the ball drives on Caleb. Cade spins on Coupe. Oh, blocked by Coupe, but somehow it goes in. Like that was weird. Did Coupe get a hand on that layup? We got four seconds left. Inbound it to PJ. PJ with the ball over to Coupe. Hey, Coupe taking a deep three. Coupe has 10, does he? The website didn’t update. Oh, yeah. Coupe does have 20. He leads all scores, bro. I’ve had that happen to me before. All right, so end of the first half. Cooper is two of eight, but he leads us in scoring. Very, very interesting. Uh Gaffford still has zero points, has one rebound, one assist. PJ has six points and five rebounds, as well as four assists as well. Shout out to PJ. Cooper has 10 points, uh, three rebounds, I’m sorry, 10 points, five rebounds, and one steal. Klay Thomas has eight points, two rebounds, one assists. Max Christie with eight points, three rebounds, and three assists. Off the bench, Dwight has five points, six rebounds, and one assist. Shout out to Dwight Pal. Caleb Mart with two points. Naji with five points, one rebound. Deandrew Russ with nine points, three I’m sorry, nine points, four rebounds, and two assists. Brandon Williams with eight points, and one steal. Um, if anything, we need to do better with the assists because as a team, we only have 12. Uh, could do better. Rebounding, we have 27, they have 28. We’re shooting, what is that? 41% from the floor, 37% from three, and 84% from the free throw line. We’re shooting fairly good. The Pistons are three of 12 from three. We’re 10 of 27. We made 10 threes already. Kind of weird. Kind of weird. Hm. Interesting. Um, so first half assessments, uh, offensive laps. I I don’t know, laps and offense. Like our offense was crap for like four whole minutes and they were up by 10 on us and then we had to fix it real quick and we came back. So, okay, offense is there. We’re only up by two. So, third quarter, we really got to see how we how we continue out outside of the halftime. Um, defense, interior defense, nowhere. Doesn’t live here. Doesn’t live here. Uh, perimeter defense pretty good. The transitional offense has to be better. Cooper flag, I don’t know. Someone needs to yell at him. I am low-key getting tired of these extra passes, the passiveness. I’m glad he’s making shots. I’m glad that like when he does score, like you’re happy. But then there’s like, dude, you could have scored there. You could have done that there. If you see it, take it. I love that he wants to get the team involved and he wants to be a team player and he’s not selfish, but bro, it’s not being selfish if you’re making the winning play. You know what I mean? Like, I need to see that from you. But I’m glad that he has 10 points. Um, anyone else I have criticisms for? Uh, I want to see more from Naji. I want to see him hit some shots. Uh, he’s at five. I want to see a little bit more. Do more. Brandon Williams, I need to see more passing. But what do y’all think? What do y’all think so far? Bulls, thunder, NBA finals be crazy, man. They’re lucky they making the threes. That’s true. N is one steal, too. That’s true. Who’s winning the rebounds? Um, I think we’re up by one. We have No, they have 28. We have 27 rebounds. Yeah. Flag really needs to be aggressive. Only way we win. Yeah, Coupe might be bad at left-handed handling probably. Uh, let me see. Make adjustments. Don’t pass the cold shooters. That’s true. Ain’t no way the Trailblazers are third in the West. I try to tell people they’re actually pretty fun and interesting to watch. He plays like that one guy in the wreck that you picked up because you seen him make five threes. Nemore Cooper drives. He’s been good with getting tough buckets. Yeah, but every time he drives, he wants to kick it out. Don’t get that. I do not get that. I think Sham God was bad for Coop Joey development. Quite possibly crazy, crazy, crazy. But it’s halftime. What are your thoughts? Let me know in the comments section. We can have a conversation about it. Coupe has no handles. It’s very questionable. Coupe just has the problem not being aggressive. Yeah, I I still think we can win. I still think that we can win uh this game. It’s still like we’re still ahead, right? So, all is not lost. Yeah. Yeah. Coop’s playing aggressive. I like it. Has to keep going. Yeah. Towards the end of that, Cory is playing aggressive, but we need to do better about the paint. Like Jaylen Durn has like 17 points. What are we doing? Gaffford Dwight, we need to contain the paint. PJ looks so dang good with his improved handles getting ridiculous. It’s I will say this about PJ’s handles. It’s a little bit night and day. Yes, in certain moments like tonight looks good. There was a game already where he had nine turnovers. So questionable at times, questionable at times, but overall I mean we can win this game. Gavin just got back. Let him knock. Yeah. And I understand that too. It’s his first game back. All he has is one rebound, one assist. He has he’s 0 for one from the field. Not much to really say about Gaffford. And I get that. It’s funny because DLO was supposed to play like what 8 to 12 minutes. He’s already 11 minutes. We may not see more of DLo which means we’ll probably rely heavily on Brandon Williams, which is fine. Which is fine, man. Jane Hardy, I need some quick scoring. We playing worse yet winning. So we good. Yeah. Dwight will save us all. Of course. B will got it. I think so. Dwight’s doing all right. Of course. Dwight’s doing all right. Dwight Pal’s holding back. The Pistons can’t handle. Gaff looking lost. It I’m I’m giving Gaffford the grace because it’s his first game back and you know dealing with injuries unlimited minutes. Like I get it. But it is what it is. What did Shams just tweet out? What you got Shams? Oh, that’s a old notification. Troy Young missing time. Can we put in Cai? We may have to. Clay not doing bad. Clay’s doing all right. Defense is decent. I’m not really upset with it. He’s He’s got eight points. He’s three of seven from the floor, two of five from three, two rebounds, and assists. All right, we do that again in the second half, we’ll be cool. But, um, we’re going to have to win through committee. We can’t really rely on one person to bail us out. We can’t rely on two people to bail us out. It’s got to be everybody. I think in the Let me know what you think that. Let me know what you think needs to change in the second half for this to be a dub for me. Interior presence like we need to somehow just limit the inside game. Whether that’s playing PJ at the five, playing Dwight or Gaffford more aggressive down low, just limiting their interior presence. Like half of their points came from inside the paint. Um Coupe needs to be more aggressive and just more levelhead and locked in. Um, Brandon Williams, I think, needs to be that guy we saw the other night against the Pacers. Naji, just keep being Naji. PJ, keep being PJ. Christy, I think we need to play Christy more minutes and go to him as like a scoring punch and then I think we’ll be all right. I think we’ll be good. There’s not really too much I think needs to change except just the defense. Honestly, Dwight Pal might be a better fit in the clutch if it’s still close. Professional at always all times. We’re getting absolutely mogged in the paint. We are Kyrie needs to teach Coupe some dribble moves. They asking a lot from Coupe as a 18-year-old. Yeah, Kyrie can teach Cooper handling for sure. Coupe doing all right. Looks promising at least. Needs to be way more aggressive. Yeah. How many disciples does Kyrie have? Just one. And that’s Brandon Williams. Bro, it’s getting annoying because your stream is ahead of my game like 30 seconds. So, I haven’t been watching stream and haven’t got any clips yet. Oh, I’m sorry, dog. Sorry. Bring Luca on. Oh, Nico. Dang. The hostess of the Latino NBA is fire. Just saying. Let me see. I just rewinded Marcel like 20 seconds. Is Andrew Russell injured? Is he going to come back? Um, he’s got like a left knee contusion, but we knew that before game. Um, he’s on limited minutes. Do you know what? All right. So, one thing that I haven’t seen enough people talk about when it comes to Cooper Flag is that he needs post strength. I noticed that he’s not afraid to try to back people down or to like he’s not afraid to attack the basket. Like he wants to get to the hole, but he it’s almost like he doesn’t have the strength to back anyone down. Like he has no post strength, which will limit his post moves. He needs to hit the gym. And I know it’s like he can’t just become stronger overnight, but like that’s one of the things that he’s got to do. Hope Kyrie can teach flag ball hand. I’m sure he will. Uh, have to work on shot selection. Hook, shot, reverse, fadeways, bank shots. Marcel’s stream is at the same speed as my totally legal stream. Nico realized pal is a real option trading. Luka, that’s fine. That’s fine. But yeah, Coupe got to work on that that or put on put on weight. Yeah, he’s got to work on that post because I think he could be a pretty good post player, but man, no post strength at all. True. That’s why he was failing on his aggressive moves. He struggled to back Bronny down summer league. I believe it was a while back. Yep. Yeah. No, it’s it’s interesting. Do you think Wimby will score 100 game? No. I don’t think we’ll ever see a player score 100 points unless you unless you have like another like generational talent who’s just unstoppable in his prime on a hot streak playing against like a very injured team. I don’t see like the stars have to be aligned for someone to hit 100 points now. Uh, I should have I should have been Nico for Halloween. Coupe need to study. Jason Tatum. Yeah, unless Dwight decides to. He has no shot selection unless Dwight decides to. Cooper flag was scor. Y’all crazy. Excuse me. We’ll be all right though. We need to get to line more. It’s 2025. You can delay a stream. I’m watching a Spanish stream with a Marshall broadcast. Just hit the rewind button, people. No, no, no. I think on Peacock, if you’re watching this on Peacock, apparently there’s like a weird delay or there’s a weird issue where you can’t rewind the stream or like whatever, Peacock’s kind of losing it. It’s because it’s like technically international stream or international game. So that’s why like all the streaming sites for the most part are like whack. Only good ones are the ones. But here we are. Hey, who’s winning in this? Uh, Dodgers and Blue Jays. I really want the Blue Jays to win. What’s up, Maurice? What’s up? Everyone knows Dwight can score 100 points or 100 in a game, but he takes it easy on us. That’s fair. That’s fair. That’s fair. Dwight Pal is Legote, man. It’s late. It’s 10:30, bro. Get back to the game. No one cares what I have to. But how y’all doing? The kids aren’t outside no more. Thank God. I can finally relax. I feel safe in my home. I feel safe in my home. Kings Bucks game was great. Oh well. Bases loaded, two outs in bottom of the ninth. Tie ball game. Tie. Oh my gosh. Tie ball game. That’s crazy. I heard you talking about calling the cops. What happened? I never called them, but someone did. They cleared out. They’re all gone now. But it is what it is. Let me see. I got to check some things. Sorry, chat. I feel so bad for Patriots fans. Do you know if they have a freshman pick? I don’t think so. I need Blue Jays to lose. Don’t want Drake on Instagram celebrating. Drake’s too busy getting sued by several people. No need for him to celebrate nothing. The World Series has to be scripted, man. Someone’s going to score 100 possibly overtimes. Were there stream snipers? Possibly. I try not to dox myself. You guys know I live in the DFW, but I don’t want to like let y’all know where I live. Overtime. What? I heard Kendra Mars is a Dodgers fan. Of course, Dodger Blue. It’s a song off of G&X. We’re heading to the 10th after Dodgers. Miguel Rojos tying Homer in the ninth. It’s going to be a movie. It’s a movie. It’s a movie. Thrax. Anybody watching any good movies lately? I have your address, Marcel. Ah, wait, you do. Who do you think would win in the series, Dirk’s 2011 team or Lucas Finals team? I feel like that Dirk team probably would have beaten us in a seven game series. I don’t think we at the time had an answer for someone like Dirk. Uh, I think that team beats us defensively. And then JJ Bar probably would have torched server second unit along with Jason Terry. Andrew could be rigged to be a close game. Go Dodgers. Go Blue Jays. when you invite us to the watch party. Man, look, I don’t want y’all knowing where I live. I just don’t understand why. All right, so if Hey, anyone in the chat just don’t like DLO? Like, are there any DLo haters here? I really want to hear like what people think about DLO because I I understand that he doesn’t fix every single problem we have to turn us from losers to winners. But if we’re sitting at like a negative 50, he brings us up to like a negative 35. Like it’s still a positive to have him versus not having him. TK was saying we should have got Chris Paul. Like Chris Paul playing worse than DL. What are we talking about? But I like I like DL. I don’t have a problem with him. Let me see. I used to be. Okay. Not really. He’s just not great. And that’s fine, too. Like, I’m not sitting here saying he’s he’s going to be the the savior of this team, but I don’t think he’s trash. Charik is address chat so we can pull up on him. Sit in the back corner by the PJ poster. Watch the game. I hate y’all. 2011 Mads run is the most special run. Dirkfaced nearly nine Hall of Famers. Yeah. Chris Paul’s my cousin. Tell your cousin to step it up. People on DLo aren’t shoe hooper fans. What I’m saying? The prime nets do was peak. I loved dealing the Nets the first time. Do is not the permanent solution, but he is such a great value option. He fills her needs. There you go. Do is a decent team filler. Yep. Coupe definitely needs to work with Kyrie. CP3 would not have agreed to Mavs. No, no, no, no. But yeah, I mean I like I like what DLo brings to this team. I don’t think I don’t know. I feel like a lot of people just dog pile or they’re trying to find someone to be upset with, so they just kind of pick a player. Like for the longest time, people did just kind of pick on uh Dwight, but is what it is. Can’t teach youth athleticism. I’m sure we tried to get CP3. We did, but he wanted to go to LA. Grimes trade was the problem. Grimes going off. Yeah, I know. Still can’t believe we trade the guy that got us to the finals. We should wave. Examin sign Isaiah Thomas. He’s probably watch. Mark made sure Durk didn’t win many titles, man. Hey guys, what’s up? Anthony Guerrero. You did not trade him. Adam Silver did it. That’s why I hate the 80 slander. He’s not looking the best, but he’s averaging like 24 and 12. Yeah. And I don’t really think and I don’t really think I’ve slandered 80 that much. Like I’ll admit like yeah his numbers look good. I also will and in the same breath like I say he’s not really playing his best. That’s a fact. Could use Olipo maybe. Is XM alive? Probably not. Probably not. Sometimes he’s too nonchalant on defense. That’s fair. What happened with Dennis Smith Jr.? Who knows? Who knows? Any plans for more Mavs? Digest emojis. We’re working on them. Don’t worry, they coming. Dallas doesn’t have a franchise star. Yeah, they do. Dwight Pal. You put some respect on his name right now or I’mma cry. All right. It’s all quiet in my neighborhood just the way I like it. It’s crazy because like my neighborhood’s like really big and so like the kids that are on my side of the neighborhood don’t live on this side of my neighborhood. Like I’m in a more my part of where I live is still developing. Like houses are still getting built up. So all these kids over here are from like the front of the neighborhood and they just move over here because they see us empty. Get out. Droid Pal’s day one m of course. What happened to DSJ who Jake had called a star? I think it’s because we couldn’t get his G-League rights. I think that’s why he’s not here. It was complicated. 80s numbers are good, but he’s not making an impact as much as he should be. I see that empty calorie maybe. How about you, Raid? Do you think AD’s putting up empty calorie stats? Because like there’s been these two or three times where I’m like pretty quiet 20 point game from AD. Might fight though. I mean, something Dwight Delight, y’all crazy. What do you think about the game so far? Um, it’s been like up and down in waves. Like, we had a really bad run where our offense looked like crap and then we kind of fixed it. Went on a nice little run of our own game of runs. I just Googled Dwight Pal. He has a girlfriend. Is it Maxi? Ashley Morgan. What? They welcomed twin daughters in 2024. Huh? This hap Who is Dwight Pal’s girlfriend, Ashley Morgan? What? Huh? Who’s Ashley Morgan? Dwight Dwight Pal just be chilling. I am so confused. I am Hold on. I need to tweet this. I need to tweet this. November 1st, 2025. Today. Today I learned that Dwight Powell has a girlfriend. Most importantly, he has twin daughters. My man Dwight got a whole family. Is that why he be dressing so snazzy? Because he’s like, “Man, I already won in life.” Like, that’s crazy. Can you give us a conspiracy theory about our maps? I don’t really have a conspiracy theory. Like, I don’t believe that we traded Luca to improve ratings cuz I don’t believe that that’s a big enough move to fix your rating problem. You really think that because Luca is playing in LA that people that aren’t watching basketball will now watch basketball? Or you think fans are just going to move from this fan base to that fan base? You’re not making that big of a jump. Sure, you may have had new people watch, but is it that big of a difference? I don’t believe it. I don’t believe that the Mavs ever want to go to Vegas because that also financially does not make sense. You can argue if Vegas is a bigger media market than Dallas. You can make the argument, but wouldn’t you want to go to Dallas with someone like Luca versus without someone like Luca? Come on. Do I think that they rigged the draft for us? Possibly. That’s the only thing I can’t really like prove against. You know what I mean? Anyway, yeah. Do so Ray said, “No, 80 puts up meaningful stats. I wish he attacked the board more, but if you look at all his points, barely any of his points were in garbage time.” That’s also true. Luka was a huge part of the raise for Mavericks. Yeah. Who do you think will win? I think Maz will always got faith faith in my boys. Is AD going to be back soon? Uh we’ll find out on Tuesday pretty much. All right, we’re back out of halftime.

Marshall is a clay hater when the chances present itself. Every chance I get, but he’s doing all right. What is Coupe doing? Pooper flag. Pooper flag. Kade misses the first free throw, but he makes the second one. 71 to 69. We got to get things going. We are committed to Cooper bringing the ball down. Cooper at point guard is stupid. He’s got the ball guarded by Duncan. He’s going to try and drive. Doesn’t go anywhere. So, he passes to D’Angelo Russell. Russell with the ball. Top of the key. He’s going to drive on Cade. Probably try to get the foul, but no good. Throws out of bounds. TL, you goofball. Oh man, allergies are horrible. But we got ourselves a super chat from the OG, Professor Splash, saying, “Is getting job a wet dream or is it possible?” I don’t think if I mean, anything’s possible really, but I just don’t think it would help. It may harm more that it helps. Depends what you give up. Tobias Harris is backing down. Christy, they pass all around. Cade for three over DLO and it goes in.

Uh, Dow for the three though is always nice. All right, DLO makes the first free throw. There we go. Hard pass on Jaws. Same. Are you to stream on playback platform soon? Yes, I am. I’m I’m getting uh I’m getting things together so I can stream on uh playback. All right. Dao makes both. Man, sucks being Nico. Whatever you do is still the same. Hey, towards you. But he looks taller than Gaff. He looks like it, but they’re like the same height. They’re both like 610. a gav. I mean, Dwight might be a little bit taller. All right, Tobias Harris with the ball over to Jaylen Dur. Guard by Dwight. Over to Cade. We’re throwing a triple at Kade to throw it to the other wing to Levert. Guard by Naji. He’s going to try and drive on Naji. Naji lock him down. Good defense. Naji cares avert. Oh, pulls up the deep two. Misses Arbball. There we go. Arbball. I’m the same height as Ryan Mhart. I’m the same height as Kyrie Irving. Dodgers won last year. We’re tired of them. Did Is the game over? I feel like I would have got a notification. All right, looks like we got a commercial break. Who’s winning the rebound game? Uh, let’s see the box score. We have 31. They have 32. Let’s see what turnovers look like. As a team, we have six turnovers. They also have six. So, not too bad. It’s I mean, it’s a close game, so it’s not going to be too much of a disparity. Ah, same high as Curry. Okay, 10th inning. Dodgers pitching now. Okay. Gather me to pull away. We really do. We really do. But we’ll be all right. Both teams have scored how much this quarter? Both teams have scored 15 so far. Just got to pull away and run away. Run away from me, baby. Run away. That that get crazy. Run away, baby. I got a plan. Run away as fast as you can. See? Okay, this is off topic, but Lucas averaging 45 and 10. Well, yeah, when you’ve only played three games. In those three games, he scored 45 points. They got to figure out how to stop Duran. He’s the lead scorer. Yeah, the interior. But hey, we’re playing good defense on Cade. I’ve noticed we do that a lot. We will choose who we want to lock down. It’s typically their best player. Like, hey, stop him from scoring. Cool. But now it’s some rando scoring. Dur’s got 23, bro. He leads all scorers. The only good thing, I guess, is that the Pistons bench has eight points combined. Meanwhile, D’Angelo Russell 14 off the bench. Come on, man. D’Angelo Russell is not trash. That’s what, eight, 10, 24. We have 34 points off bench. Our bench continues to be elite. I’m almost as tall as Kyrie, 5’3. I got a 6’2 cardboard cut out of him in the corner of my room. All right, Marcel, you doubt. I told you D would be I knew Dao would be good. I always said that. Favorite Kanye album? That’s tough, man. My beautiful dark twisted fantasy is my favorite Kanye album. It’s got to be. It’s got to be. Cooper flag doesn’t have a bag. I know he’s a rookie, but his lack of offensive bag is disappointing. Yeah, the locking down best players. Why we lose to teams like the Blazers? Yep. Yep. Yep. Yep. We put too much effort on their best player. Our bench continues to be elite. Our starting five is garbage. Yep. Will Gaff and Dive together in the game. Good. Well, Cooper flag needs to learn the sky hook. Jane Hardy’s favorite Kai’s vultures too. Of course it would be. Or da too. I do like Yeezys. That um took time. Anyway, we should be back from timeout soon. Let’s see who we can run away from. D Live is injured prone. I agree. I believe Kyrie will be back in November. Hey, we’ll talk about tomorrow. Mine’s probably college dropout. Oh, yeah. I mean, college dropout late registration and um graduation are like classics. Yezis is good. Ye grows on. Yeah, Ye is definitely growing me. All right. A nice little two for the Mavs. 7874 as we pull away. Here we go. Kade with the ball. Over to Duncan Robinson on the wing.

I like that that little route that we ran. I like that. I like that. So, remember when you first started your channel, man, congrats to your cousin so far. Thank you so much, Moses. I appreciate you, man. Thank you. DL is not trash. You’re darn right. Darn right. I want to see BO with another basket. Yeah, I want to see Miles Kelly on the game. These two guys aren’t going to get as much minutes as we hope. Max Christie misses the first free though. Life of Pablo, college dropout, late registration are all interchangeable in my opinion. 80 is cool, but as the undisputed best, not my book. Yeah, for me it’s my beautiful dark fantasy. I felt like that was like art. Really well put together. Koopy’s a post fade game. He needs to work on his postgame in general. Max Christie makes the second free though. We’re up by a good bit. 7974. Maybe Durk can show him the fade away. Maybe Dallas win. I hope so. All right, Kade with the ball guard by Christie, dumps it to Duncan Robinson who drives, goes up. Blew right past DLo. Man, Marshall, do you hoop? Not anymore. I used to. My knees are not the same. Um, I was a tall kid so I learned how to play like power forward and center. Um, then I stopped growing and was forced to play point guard and it was hard. A three from DLO is short. Mazball. How long is 80 out? We’ll know on Tuesday. The production on My Beautiful Artist Fantasy was insane. It’s art. It’s a movie. It’s a whole movie. All right, we’re only up by three. Coupe has so many different levels. He can elevate his game just like Lively. Strength and aggression will help all levels. Yep. All right. Jaylen Dur with the ball over to Cade. Kade guard by Max Christie. Dumps it to Duran.

K with the ball. Can Coupe be a mini hianis? No. I hate that there’s a comparison there. All right, they throw a lob to Jaylen. Jaylen got a easy dunk. Dwight just stood there.

Hands off to DLo. DLo with the ball. Over to PJ. Corner three. Bad spacing, but he almost knocks it down. No good. Rebounded by the Pistons. Thompson with the ball. Guard by DLo. Passes to Cade.

We got to do better to close out this quarter. We got to We got to finish strong. Dang, pal. Ashley’s watching. He got twin daughters. It’s crazy. And it’s like public information. Dwight and Ashley live away from the limelight and don’t even share a lot of the relationship whereabouts social media. A testament of this is their account on Instagram where Ash’s account is private where Dwight sticks the only basketball post. I think his girlfriend is a gymnast. Very interesting. Husse allowing easy points. The the the paint is not being protected. 8182. Oh no. 8282. Tie game. Do hit a technical free throw. Pal put his heart and soul into these free throws for the kids. For the kids. For the kids. In game seven of the World Series. The Dodgers are up 54 in the bottom of 11. Oh my god. Come on. Blue Jays choking just throwing away. Dwight is just tricking him.

Rebounded by DLo. for running, but he’s all alone. He may have to slow it down. Let the offense catch up. All right, we got a timeout. Good stuff. Good stuff. We got two minutes left in this quarter. Not too bad. Not too bad. We’re up by one. It ain’t over yet. Dao with 19 points off the bench. And he’s a plus eight. PJ’s a plus 11. Okay, so D has a second highest plus minus. Is TGK watching? Bro, DLO is our leading scoreer off the bench. Stop calling DLO trash. Everybody needs to stop calling DLO trash. DLO is not trash. I’m just saying. Coup has been sim scared to shoot. Good court, not going to lie. He w I’d open mid-range and passing the ball. He passes way too much, bro. Cooper passes way too much. I do not like it. I would much rather Coupe just trying to be super aggressive and selfish and just do it all. But if that’s not his nature, it’s not his nature. But I will say is I hate when he’s giving up just easy buckets for a pass. I hate that. Do you want my hero? Yeah, Clay’s in a tunnel on the bike. Just warming up. Warming up. Staying warm. Stay race. You don’t have to get ready. But it is what it is, I guess. Can’t win them all, right? Doesn’t mean I won’t try. He doesn’t have to be trash to be unlikable. That’s also true. If you don’t like DLO for any other reason, that’s fine. But I I I can’t get behind the he’s trash narrative. Is it his nature or is it the point guard reprogramming attempt by Kid? I don’t I refuse to think that Cooper’s this way naturally. This has to be this weird point guard crap that we’re doing. What does Cooper Flag do? Great. That’s a really good question. I’m not going to lie. I don’t know if you were trolling or just trying to be funny, but that’s actually a good question. I cannot tell you what one thing he does great. Bro, Coupe could have shot an open two, but instead passed to someone else and then a turnover happened which led to a Detroit three. Exactly. Defense mid. No hail, no shot. He looks bad. Coupe is just being heavily limited by the coaching staff. I feel like he just needs to play the way he plays. Yep, I agree. If he’s a third option, then why draft him? That’s true. Should have got I’m not saying that we should regret getting Cooper. We just need to utilize him better because there’s no way that he’s this bad. There’s just no way. But that’s just me, though. But we got a timeout. Should be back shortly. She’ll be back shortly. But here we are. Thought I came back out of timeout. Me and K the same height. No. Yeah. Yeah. You gapping. You gapping, my boy. All right. Is the game back? I’m I got a weird angle. All right. Jay Jayen Williams. Brandon Williams gets fouled. Me and Live are the same height, just different. I wanted to win a chip with him, man. I know. I know. I miss Luke. Even if we win, I would rather lo flags top three strength since he’s in the NBA. Um, I don’t know. He’s a nice guy. Why do the Spurs always win? Because they’re the Spurs. All right. Brandon Williams misses the first free throw. This real life 62. my sophomore year. I was 6’2 my freshman year and I stopped rowing. All right, Brandon Williams taking a second free throw and he makes it. All right, Pistons bringing the ball down. Caris Levert guard by Brandon Williams off a screen from Isaiah Stewart.

Finds Gaffer on the elbow over to Coupe. Coupe off a screen. Coupe pulls up a mid-range jumper. Knocks it down. There you go. Coupe. Mavs locked in when time’s running out. Always Coop is way more aggressive at Duke. He just look like he’s thinking too much. I wish we had VJ, man. All right, here we go. 92 to 87. Mavs up by five. 18 seconds. I’m sorry. 5 seconds. Separate shot clock game clock. Got 15 seconds left. They pump fake on DL. They kick it out to Tobias. Ooh, turnover. 10 seconds. Can we score what’s D’s time table to return? We don’t even know. All right. Brandon wounds the ball. They’re guarding him pretty hard. He’s trying to find a way in. Yep. Foul. There you go. Rob version 1.0 backing off on that. Do hate. I hope so. I’ve Hey, I I try to tell I’m like DL’s going to be good for us. Don’t hate on him. He’s gonna be good for us. But we got some free throws from Brandon Williams coming up. It’s going to be great. All right, Brandon Williams shooting them things today. Junior We will. All right. Waiting for the second free throw. All right, he missed the second free throw. Kade gets it and he throws up a last second three. No good. That’s the end of the third quarter. All right, third quarter is over. 93 to 87. Mavs look pretty good. We were able to keep the offense at offense at a steady pace. Um, obviously, hold on. Dodgers beat Blue Jays. Dang. Dodgers just beat the Blue Jays. All right. Hey, if they can win, so can we, right? Right. But anyway, that quarter not too bad. We outscored the Pistons uh 32 to 28. Offense looked good. Good and efficient. Defense good, but the interior defense still ain’t that great. But overall, solid. DLO’s got 22 off the bench. Crazy, crazy, crazy, crazy. Blue Jays were up 3-1. That’s insane. That’s insane. Dodgers came back from being down one three. Insane. Yeah, we’re up by Well, I’m sorry. We’re up by six. I’m I’m cool with that. Dang, dude. Start deal though. Jay’s D just be Oh yeah, Jay’s D just be crashing out. What time should sign with the Pacers? First overall for average player will get Nicole fired. Bro, if this ignites Kendra versus Drake, I’m going to go play in traffic. Ah, Kendrick stays winning. I love it. Yeah, Dodgers won. Yep. But hey, man, just one more quarter. We just got to keep the defense solid. Um, the offense has to take consistent. I think we can win this. Nothing too crazy. DLO, Max, Coupe, PJ, Gaff, I’m with that lineup. I like that lineup. Blue Jays not like they not like us. They not like us. But yes, you’re absolutely right. But yes, waiting for the next quarter to begin. My stomach’s a little upset. Angel saved team but kid not put start. It’s kind of weird if we fumble this bro. Drake going to cry in the car. Yeah, Pacers won or Pacers beat the Warriors. Major upset. You think? Maybe. I mean, the Warriors have been playing well and the Pacers. Were they really going to go Were the Pacers really going to go 0 and six or were they going to get a win? So, I’m glad it wasn’t us, right? Spicy beat too good, man. Love Pascal. Is there an unspoken rule that you have to start the number one pick? Um, no. But typically, it’s like it’s worth it. The investment deal is not trash. Needs to start. Yes. Do is not trash. That’s me though. There’s a song that stuck in my head and I don’t know why because I I also can’t tell you the last time I heard it, but um She Ain’t You by Chris Brown. Don’t know why it stuck in my head. Can’t explain it. Cannot explain. Anyway, fourth quarter is about to go underway. Let’s get it. All right, Brandon Williams with the ball. Guard by Cade.

Or is that a timeout? Not too sure. All right. So, we got ourselves a timeout. Plays beyond lazy on defense. Yep. Don’t like it. Don’t like it. Gosh, time out though. Do we win this? Do we fix our horrible offense? Clay is going through the motions. I need to stop it. This ain’t 2016. Clay, somebody tell this to kid. Yeah. Caleb Martin shoots worse than flight reacts. Horrible form. Does Clay recognize how poorly he’s playing? I don’t know. I think he thinks he’s good. Or, you know, if he has me the stout in then like nothing else matters, I guess. Oh, it’s cold in here. Turn this fan off. Bad start to the quarter. Yeah, really bad start. We got to fix this. A7. Let’s see. Cooper flag has 12 points still, shooting three of 14 from the floor, seven rebounds. What’s happening to Mavs? Eh, we got to start scoring. We do. We got to get a couple stops and buckets. Yeah, we just got to let the let the shots fall, man. Can’t get too blown out this quarter. We’ll be all right. Aren’t we always all right? We’ll be all right. Clay focus on the wrong ball. At Golden State, Warriors owed it to Clay to start stardom. Here we do not owe him that in my opinion, less less the less lest his effort and performance decide. His rings were not one with us. Rooting for Clay, but got to be realistic. That’s right. Take Cooper out. Yeah, he ain’t really playing too well. PJ need to step it up. Six points. Yeah, but PJ’s been doing other stuff, too. Five assists and five rebounds, though. He’s not shooting the ball well, but he’s doing other stuff. Like Cooper Flag has three assists. PJ’s got more. Max Christiey’s got more. Dao with three assists is kind of annoying, but maybe because no one’s scoring. But we will see. But luckily, we’re with Cooper for a while, so in time he’ll turn out good. He’s just not that great right now. Kate has 14 assists. Good god. The kid welcomed Jenkins or Malone. Clay came here to be with Luca and Kai. Then Nico was like, “Nah, like Malone.” Yeah. All right. Cave the ball guard by Caleb over to Duncan Robinson for three and they knocked it down. Here we go. 9394. Mavs down by one. Haven’t scored yet this quarter. Getting outscored seven to zero. We pass it to Coop in the wing. guarded by Tobias Harris. He brings it out to the perimeter. Back to DLo. Do’s like, “Come on, guys. Move around. Get open.” He’s getting upset. Gives it to Caleb. Over to Coupe. Coupe backing down. Tobias. Oh, he’s getting dragged. Throw out to Do for three. Bang. Okay, DL. Save this franchise. I cannot stress enough how important DLO is to this team. He has been one of our best players. All right, they pass it to the wing. They drive on DLo. Gets stripped, but they keep it alive. Bad layup saved by Caleb Martin. Caleb Martin over to DLo. DLo with the ball. Takes another gohead three and he’s on fire. Let’s go, DLO. Let’s go. Let’s go. Yeah. Yeah. Ice in his veins. Let’s go, baby. Run away with this. Isaiah Stewart down low. Foul by Cooper with the and one. Get Cooper off the floor. Get Cooper off the floor. Get Cooper off the floor. But hey, I need y’all to spam DLo’s number. Go ahead and spam it. We haven’t done that in a while. Spam them fives. Let me see them fives in the chat. Come on now. Come on now. DLO just gave us six hot ones. Coupe just fouled on a rookie mistakes. Rookie mistakes. All right. All right, Isaiah Stewart shooting and one free throw. Man, we aren’t running away with anything. This generation bad defense. What is Coupe doing? I don’t know. See, he converts the free throw. 999 97. At least we’re up. At least we’re up. All right. Naji Marshall is bringing the ball down. Off a screen from DLo. Passes to PJ. Guarded by Stewart. Over to DLo. DLO. Back to PJ down low. PJ tries to find a way in. No, the layup rolled right on out, but Thompson’s on the floor crawling. All right, Cade with the ball. Guard by DLo. All right, Thompson’s got the ball. He’s back up. Back to Cade. DLo playing good defense on Cade. Goes for a weird three. Miss, rebound by Caleb Martin. Come on. You know you want to push in transition. Caleb’s going to drive. Oh, got stuffed by Isaiah Stewart, you dummy. Cade dumps it out to Javvonte Green for three and he knocks it down. Idiots. 99 to 100. Mavs down by one. DLo with the ball off the screen from PJ. DLO loses it. Trying to look for a foul, but there’s none. Thompson drives. Gets fouled by PJ. And it all it all falls down. I’m telling you. Oh, it all falls down. Annoying. Are they challenging that? What are we doing? Deal. About to be talking is in the locker room. Uh PG’s office half. Yeah. team is bad right now. Very bad. Very, very bad. But, but shout out to DLo. Do’s playing 22 minutes and he ain’t supposed to be. DLo has the most minutes off the bench. He ain’t supposed to be. He’s got 28 points. Is he really about to drop 30 off bench? Dude, our starting five is just bad. It doesn’t make sense. Our bench is constantly better. Shout out to them though. But good god. Bad game from PJ, decent from Gaff, bad from Coupe. Let’s see the plus minus. The worst plus minus is Clay. He’s a minus 18. The best plus minus is DLO plus 10. I Yo, I swear D’s been like D’s had the best plus minus for several games. Bench is better than five. Yeah. 20 points 22 minutes. Crazy. Flag is a bus. You just don’t see it. Uh top five players right now. I have no idea. Giannis, Joic, Luca, Wimi, SJ. Will DLo come back into the game? I have no idea. We need him. Caleb Martin is the dumbest player in this team. Yeah, if they start DLo and Max, it would look much better. Maybe bench Cooper for a game or two to try that out. I think Coupe needs to come off the bench. Are they reviewing it? What’s the call, man? The call stands. Ah, Coupe can’t do nothing good and he has no bag in Ben Simmons 2.0. She All right, y’all. Got to close this game out. It’s getting close. Too close. All right, we’re down by one. Don’t let it go away. Oh, Dwight’s back in. Hell yeah. Well, you know, Dwight Pal is a plus six, so maybe that’ll help. But hey, we got 440 people in the chat. Make sure you like the stream. We got 160 likes. Try to get to 200. Like the stream. All right. Pistons with the ball. Thompson dumps off to Isaiah Stewart backing down. Gaff goes up and gets fouled. Ah, shooting two. Who are the top five players for the NBA right now? Maro. I I thought I already said it’s uh Giannis, Joic, Wimby, Luca, SGA. waited too long to put gaff in there. This is also on coach. Yeah, it’s always on coach. How much time left? We have about seven minutes left. We’re down by like two. The twins are crazy good. They’re athletically crazy. All right, Isaiah Stewart shooting some free throws. Makes the first one. Also, the Pistons have taken a lot of free throws, bro. 17 of 28. We’re uh we’ve taken a lot. 20 to 25. A lot of fouls this or a lot of free throws this uh season. Game over. Definitely not game over. You’re crazy. Dallas’s never recontracting Kai Jones. No, Pistons are top 10 defense. Struggle is expected. We’re also a top 10 defense. How is this a coaching issue? Gaff is on a damage restriction. He can’t just play the whole game. No, that’s true. But keeping Cooper in when we were going on a run or when we were losing was kind of weird. I don’t know. I’m not saying it’s a coaching issue with Gaff, but we’re all good though. Uh they miss the second free throw. Brandon Williams with the ball goes in. Try. Okay, he gets fouled. Brandon Williams shooting two. How about like, bro, you went right up at Isaiah Stewart. You’re crazy. 11 turnovers kind of bad. Honestly, I’ll take 11 turnovers at the fourth quarter instead of 11 turnovers in the first half. I’ll live with that. I’ll live with that all day. They’ve got what? One, three, four, five, six, seven. They’ve got seven turnovers. I’ll take the 11. Chat, I’m back. How’s Cube doing so far? Crap. I’m tired of Coupe always making the right play. He just needs to be aggressive. Yes. Brandon Williams makes the first free throw. Caleb looked cool, but dang, he should have shouldn’t have done that. Yeah. Yeah. Let’s see what the fouls look like. No one’s really in foul. Well, Gaffford is in foul trouble. He has four. All right. Brandon Williams clutching it up. Do you think Coop will play better than Ant? I have no idea. It’s way too early for me to say. All right. Brandon Williams makes both. Hell yeah. partially injured gaff still getting bored on miss free throw that pissed me off so much last season we couldn’t box out yet all right tie game 101 up here we go Javvante Green back to Thompson Thompson to Tobias Harris no one’s on him and he misses the turnaround jumper hilarious rebounded by Christy over to Brandon Williams with the ball making him dance trying to spin falls down jump ball come on Brandon Williams I’ll be pissed this goes overtime too late for an overtime game. Bro, my postgame vid is going to be so late. So late. Brandon Williams is trying to keep control of the ball. That’s a jump ball. All right, Pistons obviously winning. All right, Thompson bring the ball down. Thompson over to is that Javvante Green back to Thompson to other wing. Back to Thompson guard by DLo. He’s going to drive. Stops. Goes up. Gets the bucket to go. Such an easy bucket. What are we doing? Naji Marshall bring the ball down. How long is 80 out for? Like two games. Bless me. Bad pass by DLo. Turnover turned into a easy bucket for Jaylen Dur on the other end. We got a timeout. 101 105. Mavs down by four. Brother spacing in our offense has been the worst, which causes our defense to work twice as hard. Wow. apparently. So, this is what I don’t know if y’all saw this. This was like seven hours ago. This is what uh Mark Cuban said. He said, “Crazy thing is Nico didn’t even initially ask for AD. He was trying to do a Luca for No, this is a this is AI. Never mind. I almost fell for some AI slop. He was trying to do a Luca for Bronny swap straight up and his point was he loved Bronny’s defensive potential. He thought the kid could guard one, two, three. Changed the whole tone for us on that end. Oh man, I fell for that one. I like, how did I not see this, man? We We literally cannot blow this. We have to win this. We got time out. We got time out, man. I’m calling for a like spike. Late fourth quarter like spike. We got 440 people in chat, which I appreciate. But make sure you like this stream. We growing. We growing. We growing. And hey, shout out to you guys, man. We got 22,300 subscribers. Appreciate y’all. But man, we can still win this. We’re only down about four four uh six minutes left in the quarter. Just got to tighten it up. How we been looking? Uh it’s been a little bit of a back and forth. We’ve been hanging in there honestly. Uh we are getting outsc scored eight to 18 this quarter. Very bad. So we just got to we just got to tighten it up. That’s all. Cooper’s trash. Coup’s playing horrible. Cooper flag has uh Cooper Flag has 12 points, eight rebounds, four assists, one steal, one turnover. He’s shooting 21% from the floor, 33% from three. He’s a minus two in box plus minus. Naji Marshall actually has the worst box. No, I’m sorry. Clay’s got the worst box minus minus 18. Coupe is three and 14. This man mean on the box. Yeah, he pied on the box. Oh, also chat, in case you didn’t know this, Dwight Pal has a girlfriend and he has twin daughters. Dwight Pal has a girlfriend and he also has kids. Actually insane. Cooper needs to carry this team. He can’t even do that. How gaff looking rough but his first game back. Kid go great player worse head coach Coupe can’t make a sh don’t like what I’m seeing from Coupe. Coupe came and shooting have no bag. Defense wins championships also offense by P so inspirational. Yeah, he can’t even carry himself. Do we have our first round draft pick to come here? Yep, we do. Whoever taught Coop to shoot should be fired immediately. Immediately. All right, let’s see what we got. PJ playing trash. You guys blaming a rookie. How about all those easy buckets? Pal and Gaffford allowing. Hey, Cooper being three of 14. Is that is that not also contributing to how bad this team’s doing? Max Christy with a tough bucket at the rim. But we also have a super chat coming from Graham saying, “Bro, Coop is 18 years old. Give him a chance.” Um, yeah. How long are we going to say that? Are we going to say that all season long? Because I can forgive a bad game here or there, but I’d rather have consistency. I’m not saying that there are like I can’t judge them. A good defensive effort from Gaff. The Pistons miss, but they get the ball back. They pass the ball around. Tobias Harris pump fakes on Gaff. Kicks it out to Green for three. Clunk. No, good. Rebounded by Dafford. Shouldn’t depend on rookie to win easy games. No. Yeah. Like I’m I I don’t think Cooper Flag is going to win his games, but like just play well. He’s three or 14. He missed 11 shots. That’s bad. Oh, D with a very bad pass turnover. Outside DLO, it’s been trash. B Will should not get liberties hardy. Never got he hasn’t earned them. Yeah, these commentary saying coup is trash. Can’t score point against the WPA. That’s crazy. He said that until December. Then we say he’s only Oh, then December we say he’s only 19. Yeah, just don’t put him on the point guard position. It doesn’t help anybody. But good job on the Mavs. We have 22 points off turnovers. They only have 14. Again, we have a good defense. Our offense sucks. All right, Thompson with the ball under the basket. Kicks it to the corner for a three. They miss. Rebounded by DLo. DLO with the ball. Bring it down over to Coupe. Coupe with the ball. Back to DLo. Dlo to Gaff. Gav at the top. Hands off to Christie. Christiey’s going to drive. Oh, brings it back out to DLo. DLO for the three though. Bang. Oh my days. Yeah. Yeah. DLo, come on now. Fives in the chat. I need them fives in the chat. I need them fives in the chat. Ah. Ah, and we got a super chat coming through from Graham saying, “What do you think about trading for John?” No, thank you. A three from Tobias Harris. No good. And there’s a foul on Jaylen Duran. Hell yeah. Drop them fives in the chat. Drop them fives in the chat. Yeah, baby. Yeah, baby. Five. DLO. MVP. DLO. Come on now. 31 off the bench. This is that DL catching catching heat that we love to see. Now, we need to win this game though. D load in the tank. Y’all crazy. Pull D out the game. He is the game. Yep. Do with the ball off the screen from Dwight Pal and Christy. Double double screens. DLo with a falling three. Don’t know what he was trying to do there. I think he was trying to draw a foul. Love it. That Lego game exposed that he couldn’t make one midi. All right, Kade, bring the ball down. We got four minutes left and this game is coming down to the wire. Kade goes up. Gets fouled. I love the overreaction from flag haters. And I’m not sure if if that was at me. I’m not saying I’m a flag hater. I I I acknowledge he’s having poor games, but I don’t think it’s his fault. I don’t think we’re putting him in positions to play his best brand of basketball because I don’t think we’ve seen the best from Cooper flag yet. It’s been underwhelming. And I blame I blame the coaches over anything. Is this the most points scored by a any player in Mexico in NBA history? I have no idea. Uh refs hate mass probably. Anyone’s ball game now. We cannot waste this deal in master class. We can’t. Kade made the first one. Flag jerseys in the back. Yep. Yep. I got high hopes for him. Do you a flag hater and he is five games in? Are we going to be like, “Oh, it’s only six games, only seven games. It’s only 30 games.” is like I hold my players to higher expectations. All right, flag bring the ball down. Oh, give the dlo bring the ball down. DLO with the ball off a screen from Chrissy. Passes Chrissy as he tries to cut to the basket. Throws out to PJ in the corner for three. Ah, close but no cigar. Rebounded by the Pistons. Cade with the ball guarded by PJ. Going to try and drive. Goes up. Falling. No good. rebounded by Jaylen Duran. Dwight Pal fouls. Good lord. Just gonna run away from us with all these fouls. What’s the time table, Kyrie? I don’t know. No, you’re not a hater. Just realistically, I understand. We all hope Flag becomes great. Yeah, we all know Flag is a bus. I mean, honestly, if he doesn’t fail, then Nico doesn’t fail and that is hard to take in. Who got the rebound? Nobody in the face. Yeah. Can’t rebound. No, no, no. This is getting rough, man. Game’s running away from us, man. Oh, baby. Jaylen Dur makes the first free throw. It’s going to be tough, bro. Let me see. Guys, how is the one Piston getting the rebound when three Mass players are surrounding him? I have no idea. We’re not rebounding that well today. Maybe they’re used to AD being out there. All right, Jaylen Durham makes both his 106 to 109 three-point game. All right, DLo, bring the ball down. Shoot another three. Save me, DLO. D with the ball. Off screen from Coupe. Pass it to Max as he cuts. Swings it to PJ. PJ wants to drive. What are they calling? What are they calling? Turnover. Golly, bro. Man, Christy should have just finished. I don’t know why he passed to PJ. Kobe’s first year 7.6 points. I mean, yeah, I know. I’m not Look, I’m not saying K’s gonna be trash like he or he’s always going to be. I’m just calling out this game right here is bad, man. Man, we have 15 turnovers 37. That’s bad. K with the ball. Dump it to Duran who goes right to the basket for two. Good god, we need to score. PJ over to Christie. Christy, bring the ball down. Down by five. D the ball. Passes to Christy. Over to Flag. Flag in the corner. Spins baseline. Okay. Fouled. He’s shooting two. That was tough. Cool. Please drop these free throws. Yep. The stupid drop covers every time. Push the dang reset button on this roster. All these force threes, man. Now, in no way am I saying Koopa will be Kobe Stockton, but dang, bro. Five games. If he’s playing bad, do I say he’s playing bad or do I not say he’s playing bad? I just want the chat to let me know if a player is playing bad. Can I say he’s playing bad or do I refrain from saying he’s bad? When they’re good, I say they’re good. When they’re bad, I say they’re bad. Coupe makes the first free throw. I’m also not giving up on Cooper. PJ is playing bad. Yes, PJ is playing bad. Not a good PJ game at all. PJ will forever be a role player. He blows up the simplest moves. I’m sorry people saying he’s a bust. Oh yeah. Anybody who says he’s a bust is just wrong. Like I’m not giving up on Coop. I’m just calling it out. Be objective. No one should object. Oh, Cooper made both free throws. We’re down by three. Get a stop and score. All right, Cade with the ball. Guarded by Max Christie. Kad’s going to drive on DLo. Goes up, floats it over PJ, gets the two. Fivepoint game. Bro, this is rough. Tell me why I think he’s not a bus. Because I can’t say that in five games. Not enough sample size. Uh because if y’all remember Oh yeah, DLO foul on three. Love it. Is it on the shot or on the floor? Come on. Looks on the floor. If you remember, um, LaMelo Ball was trash in his first few games in the league. If y’all remember, would you call LaMelo a bust? Some of y’all might. I don’t think he is. I think we’re good. All right. So, not a free throw, but we’re good. We inbound to PJ. PJ with the ball pass to Coupe as he cuts. Coupe goes up, gets foul shooting, too. There go Coupe. How’s AD doing? Fantastic. Coupe guy look better, man. He’s playing so terribly. Yeah, might just need to play another position, but kid thinks otherwise. Also, that’s another thing here, too. Uh, only here because I’ve missed your vibes, bro. S ain’t supporting M before. I Hey, textbook. I appreciate it. But yeah, like I said, too, it’s like I also don’t think that we’re getting the most out of Coupe because we’re not putting Coupe in a position to be successful. I think we have him playing so unout position or so out of position, so unnatural, so forced that it makes him look bad. I don’t think we’re doing our best to make him look good, but also to hold him responsible. He’s not playing that aggressive. He passes the ball when he does not need to. It’s just weird. Cooper makes both. I love that we can score, but can we also get some stops? Stops. Yeah. I hear you, Graham. I hear you what you’re saying about these great players. I That’s why I’m saying like I don’t think he’s a bust. I just think it’s a very weird start. Anyway, Pistons with the ball. Duncan Robinson throws a floater over PJ. Everyone’s scoring on PJ right now. Y’all knows that everybody’s scoring on PJ. All right. Dao with the ball off screen from PJ. Pass it to PJ. What’s he going to do with it? Passes to Coupe in the corner. Coupe trying to drive in but he can’t. Out to PJ for the three Jay just does not go down man. PJ rebounded by Jayen Durn. Over to Cade man. Lost this one guys. We shot four 13 this quarter. Dang. All right. Thompson goes right up at PJ. Yo that six buckets on PJ. That was six backtoback buckets on PJ. Oh my god. That’s garbage time, bro. That’s garbage time. Do you think Flag will stay with the Mavs afters after Ry contract expires? Yeah, because we have his rights. PJ threw this game. PJ played bad. PJ played very bad. Very, very, very bad. Just took a poop and when I returned, we down against the Pistons. Yeah. Plenty of time left. N Musa should be in there, said PJ. Somebody you think we have a chance to win? No. Can’t score and can’t defend and refuse to play a dude who shoots at 48%. Yep. Honestly, investigate. Cooper bro might be placing bets on himself. Man, that’s crazy. We need some godlike shooting if we want to win this game. Our defense, I’m sorry, our offense being that bad is why I don’t think we can win. Flag playing out of position ain’t fully fault. Yeah, I agree. This team only works with Luca. He might be might as well rebuild. PJ will be named in the betting scandal off this game. Man, at this point, I might just wait for Kyrie to come back. Cooper will have flaws. I’m happy he does. I just wish we allow him to make mistakes and get better. The Luca trade really got mostly ready to crash out. People are calling him a bust. people that are like fully crashing on Cooper. Yeah, it’s a little bit like I want him to to be better. Like I hope that he does get better. But yeah, I just don’t like the whole point guard experiment. I think that’s doing too much. We don’t need that. He’s not even used to playing the NBA. We inbounded to Cooper. Over to Dlo. DLO to Coupe as he cuts. DLO to Naji. Naji again. You passed when you could have gone up. He passed when he could have. Why didn’t he just go up? Why in Cooper just try to score? You’re under the basket. I absolutely hate that. I I hate that he does that. Anyway, Pistons ball. Tobias Harris goes right up. Misses. Rebounded by Jaylen Dur who gets fouled. Coupe has no bag. His IQ ain’t all that. He got cooked on defense. K is forcing him to be a playmaker and a shot creator when he ain’t ready for that too much responsibility. Hate that Coupe does that under the basket. Let me just pass the ball. Go up and get fouled. You can make them. If we lose game, we’re going to crash out. Bro, crash out. We’re going to lose. Down by eight. Team is a bad coach, but yes, the coaching is the biggest problem. PJ Dive and Naji for LeBron, Bronny, and Ruie. Dive will have impact again. Y’all crazy. 18 years old. Let them grow. Get better. Do better. Coaching. I’m mad the coaching. I will tell y’all though, I don’t care that he’s 18. I don’t care that he’s 18. All right, Jaylen Durren makes the free throw. We’re down by nine. 30 seconds. Dallas never the same. I hate to be negative, but Mav’s good days seem to be in the past. The good news is is that we can always get better. That’s the positive thinking. So, really quick, because Rob’s going to lose this game. I have a question for y’all because there’s a lot of people I’ve seen call for a rebuild. Do you as Mavs fans truly believe that you could stomach three to four years of a rebuild? Like would you still be invested in this team if we decided to go all in on a rebuild and go the Thunder route? Remember the Thunders got a lot of draft picks and they were bad for like three or four years. Could you still be a Mavs fan watching them rebuild for three to four years? I’ve seen so many people saying it. I just don’t believe it for Mavs fans. I don’t. Pistons hit a three. They’re now up by 12. Holy crap. We We gave up. Yeah, but it better work. I would I would actually love it. But yeah, Elote D. It’s not Elite D. It’s Alote D. No. Yeah. Yeah, they gave up. I’m watching them now. They’re giving up. Mads really ruined their the franchise on purpose. Yeah, I’m a Thunder fan, by the way, bro. I was freaking around. I was around yesterday. Hey, what’s up, bro? I could stomach a rebuild if Flag is balling. It’d be very difficult. M really ruined their franchise on purpose, bro. But that’s what I’m saying. like like people ask for rebuild. They say they’re ready. Okay, rebuild means you’re going to be dog crap for the next like four years while you watch a bunch of young players come in and out and try to develop and get good. I personally can do that. I like rebuilds. I think they’re fun. They’re interesting. You see certain players like grow and blossom right in front of you, but I feel like there are some Mavs fans, I would argue the majority of Mavers fans could not sit through a rebuild. But anyway, ours late Saturday Mexico game ends with a loss right at midnight. Um, absolutely insane. Uh, the offense just gave up. It showed its ugly head again at the end of the fourth quarter. That is a bottom two offense in the NBA. We got outscored 17-35 that quarter. Absolutely embarrassing. Um, a lot of things need to be fixed with this team and I don’t want to harp on some of the obvious obvious things that need to be fixed, but the offense, it’s got to be something. Shout out to DLo doing his absolute best. PJ played like crap. Cooper lackluster game. I’m not going to say it’s crap, but it was lackluster. Uh, good stuff from Max Chrissy. Still pretty solid. Clay hit some threes, but overall very mid game from him. Naji, I need more from him off the bench. Brandon Williams mid game overall is just mid. But we looked good at some moments, some moments we didn’t. Honestly, not bad without Anthony Davis. I mean, losing by 12 is bad, but up until that point, not too bad without AD, but this should be a wakeup call. Uh, the Pistons and Wizards, two notoriously horrible teams in recent memory, and we lost to both. That is embarrassing. But we have a game on Monday. Who do we play Monday? I already forgot. On Monday, we play uh the Rockets and they haven’t been playing that well either. We’ll see how we go. We are now two and four. Will we be two and five? Not too sure. But thank you guys so much for hanging out with me this late Saturday night to watch the Mavericks just get curb stomped in Mexico. If you are new here, welcome to Mavericks Dig.

I’ve got tonitis, ringing in my ear, but I also suffer from depression, anxiety, and PTSD to the point where I attempted to take my own life twice. And I share that with you guys because if there’s anyone out there watching or listening to me that’s going through a rough time who doesn’t like they don’t feel like they have anybody that they can go to, that’s not true. You always have me. You guys support me so much. You can see on the screen right here. Where? Right here. Here. Down here. We’re at 22,320 subs.

Dallas need a new coach. He does not know who and when he needs to play. It’s not the starting lineup the problem it’s the coaching. Just be fair to all his players and he is not some keep messing up and he says nothing but don’t let one not score he automatically pulls him out. Need to replace the coach
so pj and cooper gets 100Min while playing like dirt and a klay thats finally finding his rythm gets 1 min at the end of the 4th qtr when the game is over Kidd u amaze me
Fire Nico
Kid not using his rotations correctly. Cooper should playing his natural position and let an actual pg open opportunity’s for his teammates
