Uh, play it again. cuz we got to learn to play this again. Well, we getting we we got Kavon back, got Derek back. Um, so just not enough minutes at the five spot right now, but so you’re head coach. Go. You got Alita. What you want? No, you know, you know, this is how I wanted to start this show, actually. I I really I really want to start it. You such professionals. You so good at your job. You’re such a professional. Uh, nothing nothing nothing is special about Bill Green. Let’s just start there. But but the fact that he said that and then you get this. Yeah, Chris, go ahead. Go ahead. Look, look, look. It’s karma. It’s It’s perfect karma. It’s another reason that this man needs to be fired. He doesn’t even know the right things to say. You are supposed to say in that moment, Will, in that moment, Bill, you say, “I’mma figure it out. I’mma find a way. I have to find a way to get him minutes. He’s talented right now. Even we know we have a we have a lot of bigs right now. We have fours and fives. It’s my job to figure it out. And I’m not doing a good enough job of balancing it. I’m not doing a good enough job of balancing what we have at the four and five position. You knew coming into the season that if you were healthy, this is what it would look like. It’s not like it’s a surprise and Kavon Looney just just magically appeared. You knew in the training camp, you knew months ago this would be your situation. Now, not only have you decided to play this man inconsistently and you’ve been ass giant ass the entire year. Wait, ass. Giant ass. Okay. Um, not all of you been terrible. You won’t play one of the one of the rare creators you have on this [ __ ] 1995 built team. You won’t play him. You play him tonight. And what does he do? And you let him play. There was some mistakes in there. He threw he threw that [ __ ] oop to slide Lel at the at the end of the game. There’s a miscommunication on a uh on a cup to Jose. But 128 and seven, four steals in 18 minutes. That’s who the [ __ ] Derek Queen is. That’s what you drafted him to be. But if you want to turn him into Eric Dan Pier and put him in the [ __ ] dunker spot and have him setting screens all goddamn day versus giving him the basketball, which he was built and and which is where his gifts are. This is what happens. But it shouldn’t take me to tell you that you played in the league. This is your job. You’re supposed to know this. You’re supposed to know this, Will. you. It’s your job to know this. Derek Queen, this is who he is. Not a surprise. And when you get up on that post conference today, when you get when you get up on that goddamn podium, if you lie, giggle, smile, say anything else other than it’s on me. They should fire you right then and there. Come on, Chris. Gail should come down from the [ __ ] from the Raptors like stink. I can’t picture her anymore. And fire you right there. right there in front of everybody cuz it’s embarrassing. It’s embarrassing that we even have to have this [ __ ] conversation. None of it makes sense. None of it steals a bunch of rotation questions. But Derek Queen, this is who he is. But how the [ __ ] why why why do we why are we the only people that know that? You see him every day. Nah, cuz we the only we the only ones that watch the film. We the only ones that watch the film. Billy Green don’t know who that is. He He don’t know who that is. Congratulations, Justin. I’m hosting. I got it from hosting. All right, Pelicans won 116 to 112. I really want to continue on what Chris is talking about. Honestly, like I I really feel that’s all we need to talk about tonight. Jose’s flowers. I I really I really feel like we need to talk about how you have Justin. You’ve you Let’s just Let’s go to you. You’ve called You’ve called Queen an offensive hub, right? No, you did. I don’t want to take I don’t want No, no, don’t be nice. You you you introduced that to me. I’m just piggybacking off what you said. All right. So So let let’s start with this. A lot of what we saw what we saw or heard about Queen and Five, you know, he was in on the film, me and Chris. So, of course, shout out to my dog Five. Justin, we we heard he doesn’t have a motor. Uh, bad defender, won’t be able to defend at an NBA level, can’t protect the rim. He had four steals. Now, mind you, that’s not rim protection per se, but it is a different type of defense. What What What is it about his game that allowed him to thrive tonight? I’ll tell you exactly what it is. He plays at his own pace. When the game’s going like this, it’s going back and forth, back and forth. He slows it down and you can play through him. You can play him at the top of the key. You can play I think Jared had a great uh tweet today that they’re playing um in the short corner more. Like you can post them up. I think they did with Looney, they did it with Queen, but then how many times tonight, not tonight, I’m sorry. How many times in the fourth quarter did you see ball inner high post from Derek Queen and you have split action between whether it be Jose Trey Pool Bay whatever it may be you have cutters you know going off him Jared how many time how many bounce pass assist he had tonight off off of cuts two three four at least at least right and like also the beauty of Derek Queen and this is what I’ve been trying and this is what y’all been saying too if [ __ ] don’t go right guess what he faces up and he’s got all the lane all the space to operate against a in which he has elite ball handling and elite footwork. How what about that night where he he gets the defender up in the air, just goes right into him, gets the free throw line. Like, these are the little plays that I’m talking about. And look, Chris is right. You’re going to have to live with the [ __ ] 65 ft alleyoop lob that almost literally went to the 10th row, but you’re also going to get deflections, steals, rebounds, points, assists. I mean, guys, think about this. I I literally there was a there was a tweet tonight someone said like Willie Green has no excuse not to play uh Derek Queen and I I I bookmarked it because when I bookmarked it he had six minutes going into the fourth quarter. Well, he played the whole fourth quarter and finished with 18. And what I thought Derek Queen did tonight, Dererick Queen told Willie Green, “Nah, Mo. Nah, bro. You got to play me. I’mma show you why you got to play.” He from Baltimore. He said Mo. You right. Yeah. Yeah, bro. You gotta play me. You’re part of the problem. No. No. Chris, you part of the problem. He He talking to them. He talking to them. He talking to them. I saw what he responding to. No, no, no. He talking to the chat. I saw what he was responding to. Shout out Jerry. But shout out, Jerry. But no, like but but but he’s an offensive hub. He’s Sabonis in a sense of I mean his his passing ability, his scoring ability, the way he can cut off of them, dribble handoffs, all this other stuff. Like I I he was so impressive tonight and I just don’t understand what Willie Green is looking at. Like here’s my thing and I don’t want to say sound negative because I I I am excited they won. I really am. But the fact that you don’t play this kid is the problem. The fact that you yesterday in a postgame practice said we have we don’t have enough minutes for the for him at the five. brother. No, we you you there’s other positions on the court. Well, I don’t I don’t think he knows that. Five five, you got to you got to you got to talk here, bro. He can you can you go into at some point how ridiculous of a statement that is considering the malpractice that’s been done in the center at the center position at the four and five position in these past seven games as is. I think it’s super idiotic to say that and you just picked up Deion I mean DeAndre Jordan from off the street a week ago and he started a game but yet now yet now we can’t like so his minutes are just guaranteed like we can’t find the rookie you spent the extra first round pick on minutes. Yeah, it’s tough. He got to earn it. Like above everybody everybody else can [ __ ] up, but he he the one that’s got to earn it. That’s that’s what that’s what pisses me off about Willie Green to be honest. It’s his ability to just like everybody else got a different Everybody got their own scale with him, right? Like if if I don’t like you, if I don’t mess with you, it it’s a tougher road to get on the court. until you get to a point where like I have to play you. Like why does Derek Queen have to prove himself to play on a bad team? You just lost five games. Six in a row. Sorry. It’s been so many. Man, I was so prepared. See, this was why this was like a I I want the Pelicans to win. Initially, I am a fan of basketball. I’m a fan of this team. But I knew this was like a lose-lose situation for us, right? If the team lost, it was another maybe step for them to fire Willie Green. And I possibly could have put on my paper bag that I created. I’m selling them on Canal Street if y’all want one. Um, shout out Russell. Uh, bro didn’t have any. Uh but if they won, in which they did, it would almost give validity to Willie Green that he did not deserve. He did not earn himself cuz he didn’t win that basketball game tonight. Mhm. A collection of players won this game tonight against a a bad Charlotte team. So like that’s the that’s the true issue with all of this. Like we’re in a bad predicament, guys, and we’re the only ones saying it locally. I I feel like Justin, I me and you had a conversation the past week. I I told you how how how far off in hell we are. But to add on to File’s point, you know, you got a guy in Derek Queen who you you know, you mortgage your future for and then you you you say something like I can’t find minutes for him because DeAndre Jordan, uh Kavon Looney and uh and Mi are here and and and and I and I really feel like I it’s just so idiotic the game of basketball. We talked about this. In a game of basketball, there’s no creativity. Jesus Christ. Sean, I appreciate you, brother. I’m happily married. You know, what you I’m good, dog. Got [ __ ] I got it. I got it. I got it. First of all, I don’t understand. Let’s kick Sean out. Kick Sean out. Let’s kick out. Uhuh. No, no, no. I’m saying I’m saying I’ll do it. Don’t worry about Oh, you got it. All right. First of understand, I’m I’m sick of this [ __ ] I’ll do it. I’ll do it. She’ll understand. I mean, look, bro. I could if I was going to if I was going to [ __ ] up like this, if I was going if I was going to cheat, it could be a $2. It could be someone worth $2. She worth billions. So, I mean, I’mma come back. Just let me just let me let me do this. Like, let’s not be selfish here. Let’s think about let’s let’s think about the entire picture here. I’m changing a franchise. I’m changing our lives. I’m changing our future. You changing the podcast. You know what I’m saying? You pitching a podcast. You’d move back to New Orleans then, huh? Yeah. Well, yeah. She would have to understand it’s a it’s an investment. It’s an investment in us for sure. Excellent. Wait, hold on. Just wait. Just wait. Well, no. Well, no. Let me say this. Let me say this cuz five says something very important. Five says something. Nothing. Chris, you good. Like, no issues. No issues. Five says something very important. Why is it that Bill I mean, uh, that Derek Queen has to prove something to Bill Green. And F, I have the answer for you. I thought about this. You know, I’ve been calling Bill Green the best defender in the NBA, best defender on the team. You know what Bill Green is? He’s oppression. Bill Green is Jim Crow. That’s that’s that. And it’s it’s it’s crazy because he coaches the Pelicans. So, you know what I’m saying? Like, anyways, go ahead, Justin. By go I’ll throw it back to Chris here. Actually, he’s probably defending himself right now. I’m not I’m not we having a conversation. All right. All right. So, look. So, look. If I had a chance to get a to get a billionaire, Gail Biss, stay with me. Now, now I got to move. I have to move to New Orleans. Move move back home, right? Let’s say it’s about two months. All right. I gota I got to get the drop on her. I got to talk to her. We got to start like a relationship. But it changes our entire lives. The pie’s live. I get some money out of it and she get the [ __ ] on. We’ll talk about it later. So anyway, look where you started DeAndre Jordan. What do you mean? What do you mean we have to find minutes for Derek Queen? You were putting people that didn’t that were weren’t even signed in front of Derek Queen. Carlo, you weren’t playing Carlo when people were hurt. You didn’t start a center for two games. You bar you Carlo played the most minutes he could tonight. The most minutes I think he’s played at all tonight. Now Kavon Looney just got back in 17 minutes. He had four rebounds. How many screeners does he had? No disrespect to Kavon Looney. He probably like like great guy going to be great for this team. Ees hasn’t been great. You chose not to start him multiple games. You No. No. It’s not that you have too many people at the five or at the four and the five to play. It’s just that you’re the coach. It’s you. You think you know that? No. And that’s the problem. I I was thinking about this for real, Jared. I was thinking about this. Chris going to save his marriage. Do Do you think there’s something? Because here’s my thing, Jar. Like when you watch him It’s It’s a queen. I’m not talking about I don’t ever watch Willie unless he just really just comes on on the screen. When you’re watching him, I’m I’m not talking about you. I’m sure I’m an average fan that you know, whatever, watches a game, you would think, man, this guy gives no effort, right? Like the way he plays, but when you see that he’s involved and you see what he can do offensively and then you can see how active he is defensively, I’m not saying this guy’s a high riser. he’s, you know, play above the rim and get these emphatic rebounds, but the way he positions his body, the the the way he deflects a lot of basketballs, the way he is just involved in the play, I feel like he can really like build off of this. Even with even with Willie Green as a coach, I really feel you can build off this to where like Derek Queen as Le can just be an offensive hub. And like defensively, I don’t think he’s that bad, Jared. Like I may maybe I’m wrong. I don’t think he’s that bad. I think he doesn’t like I I I just think he understands angles and boxes out and, you know, will get deflections and rebounds and go from there. I don’t think he’s that bad defensively. Hopefully, we’ll talk about team defense here within the next 30 to 45 minutes. But, um, no, he’s not terrible, especially on this team. Like, I’ve seen worse. There is worse. Um, but you know what I compare Dead Queen to? Like, think about a young Dez Bryant, right? like he’s not like the most athletic, but like he’s so he’s such a matchup problem that you have to pay attention to him, right? And you can actually build your offense around that because he’s bigger than most corners, but yet physical enough to get p like he’s not faster than him, but he’s physical enough to get past him and create angles. And I think that’s Derek Queen. He He uses his body to create angles. He’s not fast. No, but he uses his lack of speed to create angles and you’re just you’re just off. It almost reminds me of a relief pitcher as well. Like he ain’t throwing the hardest, but yet it’s quirky and you don’t really you can’t catch his rhythm. He’s effective. Yeah. His ability to pass, his ability to see, man, the tools are there. And to be honest, hopefully we have the clip of the turnover, but that’s that’s okay. It’s okay. That’s really off of like when you gave him the ball, he got the ball out of position. The if he catches the ball where he’s supposed to, that’s a dime because he has to dribble the ball down now, he’s off cadence and that’s why it’s late. If he catches the ball where he’s supposed to, that’s not a turnover. That’s why I’m not upset at it because it’s the right thought. But that’s why late game situations matter. If he’d been playing where when he was supposed to be playing, he probably would have did that [ __ ] because he would have been used to it. And and look, Leo, I’m going to cut you off because a couple things. One, uh the turnover where he overthrew Trey Murphy, the process was great. I I hope like the process was great. He just missed it. He he he missed it. Like and he missed it. I there’s a there see that he’s got the balls to throw it that that doesn’t really like scare me. It’s the you have a point guard there. Like there’s a difference between yo it’s a twoonone break and I got the rock. But if it’s five on five on five or five on secondary transition yo just give it up to the point guard. You could be you could trail like there’s other options for you. You don’t necessarily need that. And then you got to think about time, score, possession, right? You’re down two. Like, you don’t need that. You could get a better shot. I know you’re the Pelicans, so you think the first like that’s wide open. I can make this pass. No. If you’re more methodical about it, you could get a better shot in secondary. He did have a a threequarter court like yogic pass to Trey Murphy. I think in that second quarter, Trey Murphy caught it. Whatever. One dribble and just pull turn around pull. But again, hey, uh, yeah. Go ahead, Bob. I was gonna say I got a terrible comparison for Derek Queen. No, like I do and it’s not because of play. It’s not because of like the the play style per se, but it’s like when you look at I’m saying I’m saying Paul Pierce and and I’m saying and I’m saying that because you said herkyjerky style like Paul you never really knew where Paul Pierce was going. He wasn’t moving fast. You couldn’t speed him up, but you couldn’t do nothing with him. you couldn’t defend him. He used his body to create angles. He, you know what I’m saying? He had a sim, if you look at the release on, especially on those one leg floaters, it’s a similar style type of release. Um, again, it’s a terrible comparison. I’m not saying he plays anything like Paul, but I’m just saying play style. No, I could I could see the resemblance. Yeah, I I’m happy he didn’t do any like Derek Queen didn’t do any like high school dunk competitions cuz hopefully wouldn’t look like that if you seen Paul. That was bad. That was bad. Yeah, that was that was terrible. Paul Pierce is actually a good one. Paul Pierce is actually a really good one. He’s he’s like a he’s like the like a big like a power forward a center Paul Pierce in some in some respect. I could see that. I appreciate that. Yes, Justin, we can talk about Carlo because I want to start it like this. Carlo had Carlo Carlo first quarter included seven points in seven minutes, a couple rebounds. He ran the floor looking like a 611 gazelle and then he didn’t see the floor again until seven minutes left in the third quarter. Can you call me please? Please, please, Justin. Uh Jarrett, uh Jarrett’s a really intelligent basketball mind and he said something a couple shows ago that said there’s something that happens between the second and third quarter, right? It’s called halftime. And the fact that Willie Green started Cavan Looney tonight which is fine and they weren’t great in those minutes and then inserted Carlo Makovich in which you saw highf flying poster after poster rejections great pace and then the third quarter you see a lineup that works and you go back to a lineup that doesn’t work. So Jared or Chris or whoever wants to go first, I I’m I’m trying to understand why Willie Green why Bill E. Green would go back to that lineup that didn’t work instead of the lineup that did work. If there’s any answer to that? No answer. Okay. So, what did you think of the what did you think of Carlo Jared? I thought it was great. Again, keeping basketball simple for him was like the best thing for him, right? Run the floor, rebound. We still got to work on the screening thing, but I saw the effort there, right? Uh catch, finish, uh knock down a three, right? So, I mean, there’s it’s just an avenue for Carlo to get on the floor. Like, this is definitely like an improvement from the first time we saw him and Summer League got it. I was just like, “Yo, I don’t even know if this dude’s like an NBA player.” But the fact that he’s worked at it um and gotten better, like, “Yo, you got to you got to sit up and and salute him, man, cuz he he looked good tonight.” And hopefully like he can continue that kind of consistency. Again, keeping the keeping the game really simple, run the floor, catch, finish, u alley hoops, like him screening when he knows he can possibly get the ball is a different level of screening. Again, when you know the possibility can happen where you could score, you do things the right way. Uh you can see on those those alley hoops from uh Jose, right? Like or even in the transition, he got the what was that uh Sadique Bay passing ball. Like when you know you going to get the rock, you going to spread a little bit more. And I think they did that really well in the first half, but as we all know, halftime happens and that disappeared. Uh me me and Chris did a show about Carlo this summer. Um and we talked about Carlos setting himself apart from the other bigs in what I’m about to upload this video of Derek Queen. Sorry. We talked about we talked about Carlo setting himself apart from other bigs on the roster. And the thing is like Carlo has literally has to do nothing special even if he don’t make that corner of three, right? him rim running, getting up and down the floor, just being athletic. That’s all he got to be. He’s the only big on the roster that can do that. I allow what you would have wanted from a Jackson Hayes, but but actually like a little bit more uh disciplined and um I guess you could say refined because Jackson doesn’t any I don’t want to talk about Jackson. Uh I I I think that I think that Carlo, you know, five, we we saw him at summer league and and he he was very bad. But this is what happens when you play basketball. If you if you were to get minutes, if you were to get more reps, you would then become more confident, more comfortable in in-game situations. It’s really not a hard concept. So, one thing I noticed and and I I want to go back to Derek Queen. Sorry, I don’t mean Jared. Do you have anything back to Carlo? Yeah, man. Just really impressed by his game, man. I was really impressed with Carlo, but I want to go back to Derek Queen. I was watching some highlights. So, the way the Hornets guarded Derek Queen tonight and it seems like other teams are going to do this and I think that the Pelicans can actually really burn defenses is as soon as Derrick Queen caught the ball in the high post, right? The big immediately drop. It’s like, shoot the basketball. Shoot the I dare you to shoot it. And the thing that Derrick Queen did, and this is what Draymond did, is okay, I’m not going to force it first, so let me go try to dribble a hand off to a Trey Murphy, to a Jordan pool, to a Jose Alvarado, to possibly Jordan. So what I’m trying to get at is that you can then, you know, use their sagging off of you into a step up screen, wide open shooters. And so like eventually eventually bigs are going to have to start guarding Derrick Queen. And when that does happen, Derrick Queen is gonna go one-on-one downhill. I’m telling you right now, I’m telling you right now, there are going to be fuckups. He’s a rookie. This dude can [ __ ] play and his IQ is off the charts. Off the charts. He’s gonna My bad, Leo. No, no, go ahead. It’s going to happen where that’s going to happen a couple times. some threes are going to get knocked down either from Jordan Pool, uh, Trey Murphy, and then he’s going to DHO it and slip it and like and now you got to play. Yeah. Now you get to play twoon-one damn near one zero with the rim. Like especially like with like when Zion’s not here, right? Like you got to play fast. You have to switch up your tempo. Like this is like a great hot and cold kind of kind of combo, right? You got a super athletic big with a slowfooted passer. It remind almost reminds me of your people in Denver. But I don’t want to, you know, want to make that comparison. Just not yet. Way too much. Yeah. You know what I mean? Like it it can work. It can work. You just got to be able to stick with it. You know what I mean? Like don’t be so quick to to change it just because you’re not getting the results right off the bat. Like but the potential is there. Uh but that’s why that’s why coaching matters so much. Leo, what do you think of this question? uh from Hunter. Hunter, I appreciate the question. Why didn’t Carlo get more minutes? I mean, bro, I don’t know if you saw the four, but Queen Queen Queen had it he had it going. And I really don’t think the question should have been I really don’t think your question should be the fourth. I really think your question should have been why either the second or the third. I think the question should be the third. The start of the third is Yeah, he should have definitely started the half for sure. He should have started the half. Um, but but look, man, I was gonna say f five, bro. Like, that’s my dog. We in sync. Because there was a play tonight where Queen got the basketball and he did something I’ve never seen any big on this team does. He started posting his guy up at the three-point line, was literally backing him down, was trying to do a DHO, and it was not open. But he created so much gravity. It was literally so much gravity. Took the whole side of the floor away. And then he was just making he was spraying [ __ ] He was the passing the basketball left and right like it the the amount of skill uh Queen got is just it’s incredible. And you know unfortunately it got me thinking dog imag I I don’t think obviously not right now but I I don’t think it’s going to be a point where teams will be able to just guard him oneonone cuz you can’t really put a big on him. Bro, Chris called it game one. I didn’t realize this in Memphis. As soon as Queen got the ball, they doubled. They doubled Derek Queen in the post. They didn’t seen a minute of him. That ball wasn’t even in the post. That’s the crazy part. I mean, it’s a short call like wing. He was at the three-point line. That was a skip from the other side. But there was a play from Derek Queen. I do want to shout out. It’s the left off hand crosscourt fast break pass to a three in rhythm. Yeah. And it was like a it was a Yeah. Yo, like some [ __ ] you can’t teach. If you got any of those people on your team, play them. Play them a lot. Got a five minutes for him. He just gives you some. He just gives you a different look in the in the in a game that’s like one at the three-point line and it’s all about pace, right? Derek Queens and I played I’m not comparing him to this guy, so don’t say that. But he has a little he has a little Luca in him in which I’m saying he’s very controlled and his footwork and his his pump fakes and his ball handling is very very elite. Go look at Luca. Luca doesn’t Luca isn’t this like springy like he’s just under control, uses his body, understands angles, has a good handle, step back, footwork. I’m not saying he’s Luca. I’m just saying the way he lets the game come to him and he just reads. He reads you. Okay, you’re a double me. I’m going to skip it and we’re going to go from there. What you laughing at, Jared? Am I Am I off on that? Chris Chris got gang green again. That’s Yeah, Chris is out of control. He keeps like What? What’s going on? What happened? He got said the Dale Benson thing and all of a sudden Yeah, I’m changing the color of the uh the ring light. And I mean, right now I’m just I’m just [ __ ] around. Can we get you a new light? You think we can You think we can get you a new light? I mean, Ocean Tide just hit us with a 500 super chat. You think we can? You think we can? You know, you know, I have like two or three. I have like two or three here. You have two or three. None of them work. Yeah. Well, see, here’s the here’s the problem. Here’s the problem. I gota I I’m not taking accountability for this. Somebody in this household, okay, there’s a dog, there’s a dog, and there’s a beautiful woman. Somebody took the original ring light. I had and gave me Well, I mean, we could do process of elimination. I know my dog not podcasting. Yeah. You know, I I I I know my dog doesn’t have a podcast. It’s not It’s not happening. I’m pretty sure I’m pretty sure she doesn’t have a podcast. So, Paul, you know, Paul talk Paul Pel’s talk. So, I I I do want to I do want to talk a little bit more about about you guys’ point on Queen because the point is is that like you have to not only let him play, but you got to let him play like like both of them. Like you need to let him be on the floor, but you also have to let him be. Yeah. like you can’t there’s, you know, for for lack of better uh for like trying to trying to put Derek Queen in a box and control how he plays, it’s just not going to work for him. The thing that makes Luca special is that Luca can be Luca. Like, you know, like day one, he was able to be him. Yeah. Derek’s the same way. when he gets a [ __ ] rebound. If you if you a guard, if you if you’re not the only person that he should be giving the basketball up to that ask is Zion Williamson. And sometimes Zion got to get the [ __ ] out the way because that’s part of the things that make him special. Yeah. And Willie Willie got to let that he got he has to let that go. He got to let these guys be who they are. like, you know, trying to trying to take away their gifts to fit a system that you don’t even have. Like, it doesn’t it doesn’t make like I could see if you had some amazing, you know, system or program or process that worked for years that’s won playoff games and championships and and consist and people people want to implement some of the things that you do. Who the [ __ ] are you to tell Derrick Queen what to do on the basketball floor? No, let him be him. Jar, you want That’s what happened tonight. You know I’m laughing? Because I just I just realized they ran a bunch of elbows set with Derek Queen, but they but they facilitator. This is what the [ __ ] I’ve been talking about. I I told y’all I wasn’t mad at Elbow. I was mad at the lack of execution out of it. You’ve never Derek Queen’s the first person I ever seen throw a pass to a wide open cutter like a bounce pass like a pocket pass like I I have I honestly have not seen that the smoothie kick setter on the Pelican side in a I haven’t seen it in a decade. Um let me uh got to go. He will on the following play now aren’t they? Look at this [ __ ] Nobody. And you know why you’re able to see that? Bing bing. You want me to run that back? He’s in a [ __ ] rhythm. Yeah, he’s in a rhythm. He He actually played. How do you get in rhythm, fell? How do you get in rhythm? Ever seen Derek? You got you got you got to be a part of the basketball game, bro. Bro, still [ __ ] still, bro. Get anticipation. But son, this ain’t nothing to film that we watch ain’t show. But I don’t think Will Willie ain’t watching your show. That’s the problem. Well, I mean, Willie, look, this is the past. This is the past, bro. Again, this is Trey. Wow. For that one, [ __ ] wild crazy [ __ ] Hey, that bro. Do you understand how good your footwork got to be? Rever reverse pivot legs. I’m not giving you the basketball. He can’t even look his weight. Look his weight, bro. Bro, Jose, [ __ ] [ __ ] No, brother. No, he do need to give them No. No. Y’all y wrong on this. I don’t give a [ __ ] He do. There are times where he does need to give up the rock. Yes. Will I get it back? Who? It’s that slow step. Look that drag. It’s over. That’s not a guarantee, Chris. Five. This all I’m gonna say. Am I getting the basketball back? Possibly. This all I’m going to show you some clips. Uh in the fourth quarter, they miss Derek Queen so many times early on the post. Did you Did you still He was wide open the first possession of the fourth quarter. I have it in my notes. I’m like Jose and Herb. Herb Jones. Holy [ __ ] This this all I’m going to say. Five. Derek Queen getting a rebound is an immediate mismatch because he’s already got the defense has shifted. It it’s already shifted. I got the fiveman is is is on me. I’m going to get I’m going to get past him. Somebody is going to have to help or I’m going to I’m going to bully my way drag step. Be methodical about it. Get an one. Yes, I’m not disagreeing with you, but again, I like to bring this up. Caveats. It’s all about time, score, possession. Yeah, if it happens in the second quarter, totally fine. Third quarter, great. Crunch time. You’re down two. Yo, we need a bucket. Yeah, you better be guaranteed you make that pass. And if you [ __ ] up, don’t be mad that I’m talking about you. Like, that’s what I mean. That’s why I want I should probably be on the bench or something. I don’t know. Like I don’t mind the the the long outlets, but again, this is second pure way, sir. I’m sorry. I’m sorry. Nuts. Five. I I don’t mean to cut you off. The the past is incredible. What Trey Murphy did here is is borderline psychotic. And you know what? I like it. That [ __ ] turned 180. And look at his form. Like, bro, like he might have practiced that. It makes me think he practiced that. This [ __ ] took them braids out and was like, I don’t give a like I don’t there was a lot of Trey. I don’t like Trey with the braids, son. You know what I’m saying? Like it’s not Trey, you know? Go ahead and talk to Buddy. You know what I’m saying? Hey, I’ve been meaning to holl at Trey since she sent me to that uh that chicken spot. Five. We got to get Chris. Here he goes. We got to get Trey on the line, bro. Cut this. I ain’t had words for Trey since I got to holl at you, man. But no, man. Also, I guess we got to talk about uh Fierce, man. Um Fierce uh got Can we smash the like button? But wait, hold up. Hold up. Before we get We have 500 people. Can we Can we get a like count, please? Smash like button. Subscribe to the channel. Go ahead, Leo. I’m sorry. Um what you mean by that, Ethan? No. Ethan say I don’t want to know nothing you talking about. E what did Ethan say? What did he say? Oh, I think it’s I think it’s salute them, dudes. But go hard or go hard on them, dudes. That’s the We got a rough show. We had a from the chat. We got to be better. You know what? Just You know what? Y’all gonna talk about Jose or not? We gonna talk about Thanksg. That’s for the chat. That’s for the chat. Go ahead. I guess let’s talk about Jose. Let’s talk about Jose, man. Go ahead. Go ahead. Hey, man. Jose Alvarado was hooping, was he? He was hooping. He was hooping. Jose was hooping. He was hooping. Made a big shot of the game. Not just big shots, man. I I I saw a lot of a lot of great things. Again, I I’ve always said he’s a really good pick and roll point guard, right? Uh he’s a good passer out of it. He understands angle. Got through the oop to Carlo. Him and Derek Queen had a good game there. There was some chemistry there. Uh, also Jose, I got this I got this card, bro. I only show you this cuz I’m in the background. I I would appreciate it if you if you would sign this for me, dog. But that that’s no that’s not why I’m making these comments because I’ve always been, you know, uh, Jose Alvarado, not say fan, but uh, I’ve appreciated your game. And I think there is a spot in the NBA for for Jose. Uh, he brought a lot of energy. It’s a huge shot. again at the end of the game he said that that play was not for him but it takes some balls to shoot that [ __ ] and knock it down confidence. Hey man, he show you he showed leadership. He showed leadership. He he he was putting players on the floor like in the in the places that they should be on the floor where a coach should be doing that. But um like that that that and one that uh Queen got I think he yelled at him initially for not giving him the ball was the first part of firing him up and then he told him like [ __ ] like you play your game. You know what I’m saying? Like because it’s a double-edged sword. Like I don’t like you like me and you talk it’s a balance to everything. I don’t want to take away your aggressiveness and in this case you made an and one so I can’t criticize you. Next time pass me the ball. But Jose was Jose was Jose was really good, bro. He he was really good. He was he was a calming presence. And you know what? Honestly, that’s what a good guard does. A good guard is a calming presence. And you have not seen that in New Orleans as far as like good guard plays since Chris Paul, unfortunately. And I mean, he defended too. Yeah, he bro he did a little bit of everything. I mean, he had two steals. He [ __ ] made what? Four threes. Yeah, man. You know what I’m saying? My bad. My bad. Go ahead, Chris. Sorry. Some dude John Jonathan Williams in the chat saying that uh I said he wasn’t an NBA player. That I think that is false. Yeah, probably never. Stephen five never say, it’s incredible. It’s incredible how comments just get just misconstrued. Just I look like Ross. Ross looks like me. You know, Leo is the one cursing somebody out after a game. You know, it gets out of control. Hey man, [ __ ] that dude from this morning too, man. Who? I forgot his name in the chat. I think he was joking about the burning. Really joking about the morning. I’m not a morning person. No joke. Are you a night person? Uh why was that crazy? Fresh. Don’t look at me. You can I’m just Hey, Justin. Let me Hey, Justin, let me let me help you out here, bro. I haven’t got I haven’t gotten better. Oh, you a nice person to say. Like that’s a hell of a question to ask somebody. Like what what do you want me to say to that? What if he says yes? What we need to do now is get focused and stop pointing fingers. You’re a problem. You’re a real real problem. Justin, in in the midst of uh Jose Jose uh playing well, I just want you to know you will not see Jeremiah Fears again until next week. Yeah, let’s talk about that. Oh boy. Too far. Jeremiah Fears is Go ahead. That that that’s the like that’s the problem. It’s like everything c certain things game to game, you know, closing lineups are performance-based, you know. Um if I if I decide to bench somebody, that’s performance-based. If I if if I if I decide that because of a matchup, we’re running this guy out here a little bit more, that’s performance-based. But what you did last game should not consistently turn into you playing the same amount of minutes tomorrow against Dallas. Oh, you know it is, Chris. I But when a rookie [ __ ] up under Willie Green, oh, it’s it’s over. It’s over. It’s over for Fierce. Did he Did he really mess up? No, he was four for 10. He had a rookie game. He had a rookie game. I mean, like he didn’t mess up. Like he he had a like he was four for 10. How many turnovers did he have? Hawk has been four for 10 numerous amount of times and he’s still Hawk still ended up playing more minutes than Carlo tonight. Yeah, I mean Fierce finished with zero assist four of 10 from the field. One of two from Dad Sadique play 27. He shouldn’t have to play 27 minutes. No, because Derek Queen should play 25 to 27 minutes a night. Queen got 18. Hawkins got 17. Carlo No, just say Queen got six. Leo Queen got six minutes tonight. Queen got six. Um, Looney Looney got 15. Yeah. Okay, that’s fine. Looney can get 15 tonight. Looney Looney was fine. It’s when you see Carlo is changing the game, just stay with that to start the third quarter. There’s no point of going back to Looney when you know that lineup didn’t work against like wouldn’t you wouldn’t you want it to be where like your your top five guys have like a stationary amount of minutes right and then everybody else is like fluid what’s up you know I mean like there’s no guarantee about minutes that you were going to okay of course like your sixth man’s going to have more than your your eighth and ninth man but like it should be fluid that changes there’s enough minutes for those players to play in conjunction with the stationary minutes that you have. Like I do they mathematically break this down because like we could easily do it. Can I Can I tell you what I think it is? Go a little. So what I what I think it is and five what I what I what I think is happening. They go into a game with a game plan, right? They they have this on a clipboard of the minutes allocation. Regardless of how the game flows, they stick to that script. Regardless of who’s playing well or who’s not playing well, they do not stray away from that. SH, and this is th this is what we’ve been talking about, like this is what makes you a bad coach. You got to watch the game. You got to understand what’s working and what’s not working. What was working tonight might not work tomorrow. And you got to be able to adjust and and and put out your best vibe there. But to what Jared says, Bill G. Shout Ocean. But what Jared has been preaching now for three years is no matter who is on the court, you got to play the same way. You gota you got to play the same way. And so like the fact that Zion can’t do what Derrick Queen does and it’s year seven tells me everything. Like you would think Zion could do what Queen did tonight where you just high post run splits. If they switch, if they, you know, jam up that action, you go downhill, you play one-on-one with a bait and you you just see Zion in the corner and and you see Zion on the block and then you see Zion at the top of the key. And it’s so frustrating. We’ve been trying to tell you all this for years now. It’s so frustrating to watch. The fact that we can’t we we can’t get Zion Williams in the high post and do what Derrick Queen did tonight. This is Derrick Queen’s seventh game. This is Zion Williams seventh year. Derrick Queen’s already a way more productive player. Way more productive player. I don’t give a [ __ ] It’s one game. I I I’ve seen enough. I I I see what he can do. I see what he can do. I see how you can play off of him with Zion. The fact that we can’t play off him in the high post worries me. Why can’t we play play off him in the high? I’m glad. Let’s have that Let’s have that conversation. Um is is it a Zion thing? Is it a coaching thing? Because to me, to me it makes you think it’s a Zion thing. But okay. Okay. Wait, wait. Oh, we talking. Who we talking? We Oh, we talking about Didn’t we, didn’t we? Was it was it last season or the year before last? We had a conversation about how effective it was even with bad space and putting Zion in the middle of the floor. I’ve been saying that for four years. They don’t do it. But where was they do high ball screens? When does When did Derek Derrick Queen’s favorite Derek Queen demanded the basketball tonight? Leo told me that it’s on the player, right? Derek Queen was literally like, “Go watch.” It was two fingers. Did you hear Derek Queen yell tonight when he didn’t get the basketball? Did you You could You could audibly hear him yell. He screamed 100%. I’m not saying I’m not saying you’re wrong, Derek. Like Like Derek, there’s nothing passive about about Derek. He’s seven assists. He’s not passive. Like he’s very I won’t say confrontational um in a in a in a negative way, but he plays a way that um isn’t forgiving. What the hell? This show is Joe the Fo is on a date. Joe the F. Can we put that back up? Can we Can we Can we Can we Yeah, sure. This show is going to get cancelled. [ __ ] You know what? [ __ ] them all. It doesn’t matter. Oh. Um, you started this, Chris. Chris, you started this. I’m just saying that we got to we got to stop thinking so much about like, you know, we got to stop being selfish. Like sometimes there’s sacrifices that need to happen for the greater good for everybody. Jesus. And you know, like if if the if the shoe was on the other foot and it was a like, you know, a similar situation and Crystal told me to, you know, she had to move to goddamn Nevada for for [ __ ] for for for for two months and it was going to make me rich and make the pod rich, I’d go for it. I think it depend on the person, Chris. I think ain’t the person. No, no, no. I’m saying like this ain’t going right. This ain’t going right. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Let’s just keep Let’s just keep this because we about to get cancelled. Yep. I I want to say I I’m gonna say I think it’s a Zion problem. I’m saying it’s a Zion problem because I thought about this tonight, right? In in the limited amount of time that Derek Queen had the basketball, created his own shot. I was thinking to myself like, damn, man. I wish Zion had that kind of handle. I wish I wish Zion could could take advantage. Yeah. I wish I Hey, how about this? I wish Zion would go right. I wish he would make a right hand layup. What about pump fake? Uh, pump fake. Get your defender up and lean into him for a foul. Oh, Jerry. Go ahead, Jar. I’m all right. Go ahead. See, this is why coaching matters, right? Like, yes, sir. Derek Queen is used to playing in the high post. That’s what he’s always played, right? So, it’s natural for him to call for the ball at the high post because nothing has changed for him. For Zion is different. He’s played on the perimeter. He likes to get downhill, right? Like that’s been his game. Even when he was at Duke, they played him a little bit when they when teams went zone, he would go high post and then play from there. But it’s never been a structure to say, this is where you need to get the ball. This is where you’re going to be effective. If you had a coach that could that could tell you like, yo, we’re gonna put you here and this is where you you can score at a high clip, then that can elevate you to grow your game from there because, you know, year after year, game after game, this is where you’re going to be effective. I would love to see Zion at the high post. Hell, you can run split action from the wing. I would love to see that because I think he’s a good passer. And then if you put him on the left side, which is his favorite side, and then you have a cutter and they jump the cut, where he’s gonna go? Left. See? So, see, see five, y’all both right though. Y’all both right. Of course. Y’all both right. And and Leo and Leo like like understand that y’all both right. It’s Justin. Same thing. Like you shouldn’t we should not be Zion’s had enough time to expand his game. Zion. Zion’s had enough time to work within this this uh this cluttered [ __ ] that’s being put out there. This this high school offense is being ran. If that like he’s he’s uh no no disrespect to you, Justin. No, I high school like but but he’s he’s had enough time to expand his game to work through with that. But that doesn’t mean that he’s being put in the the best positions consistently offensively um or from a creative standpoint that are going to give him success because like yeah his his game the best parts of his game is when he has space and when he’s able to get in transition. Um the best parts of his game is when he’s not crowded but that’s never like he’s always going to see a crowd. So if you are said coach and you want him to score, you want him to actually score, what can I do to make that happen? If you put him on the elbow, but you you put him at the nail like they often like they often like to do what he wants and let him create. Nine times out of 10 with the spacing he’s getting, the ball’s going to the opposite corner because everything is like the defense is pushing him to pass the ball. That’s just that’s just simply how it is. You can’t do that with Derek Queen, man. Come on, man. Yeah, man. So, I mean, yes, like like like y’all right, but it’s on, you know, I think it’s on a smart individual to say, “Look, this is just who the [ __ ] he is. How can we make the best of what the [ __ ] he is?” And putting him in putting him in the middle of the floor, there was a stretch where that worked better than anything else. It got more jumpers out of him. It got easier looks. It got easier attempts. Look at this action, bro. Look at all this. Oh, you know, another thing, another thing about Derek Queen, you know, um Justin, you had a tweet the other day about the plus minus between Queen and Zion. Yeah. Right. And another thing, just watching the game tonight, I believe Derek Queen is such a hub. Like, you could play him with Carlo if you wanted to start Carlo. He could he could he could literally find a way to coexist with any big or any lineup that you put him in. Yes. Yes. Yes. He understands for someone who doesn’t offer traditional spacing. He understands how to create it cuz he attacks it. He doesn’t wait for he doesn’t he doesn’t let the you know he doesn’t let the the space just be. He minimizes the space. Oh, hey, by the way, uh I got shot Brett Usher who who uh made this um video. But this is what I was talking about. First off, first off, look at Do y’all do y’all see the space? Yes. And then Trey cuts. That’s fine. And then Okay. All right. All right. Justin, quick question. Yeah. If Z if they ran that same that same action and Zion had the ball, do you think that that same space would be available? No. No. Why? What would be different? Yeah. Cuz they’re worried about Zion. They’re not going to play him oneonone. Correct. They’re just not correct. Okay. But but but Derek Queen is way more has way more finesse and way more game than Zion is. I’m not saying he’s a better player. I’m just saying he understands angles, footwork, space. Like, have you ever seen Zion do this, Jared? This is important, though. It’s not That’s not This is important. All right. All right, bro. Like, as we all know, basketball isn’t it’s it’s not a it’s not a one-off. Like, you could score in many different ways. You could be effective in many ways. Zion’s objective to get as many eyes on him as possible to make it easier for other people. That’s no different than what Derrick Queen is doing, right? He’s going to dribble into traffic, two people attached, I’mma make a play. The other part of that is the teammates and the staff teaching the others like, “Okay, when this happens, this is the result.” Like, think about Herb’s guy on on the initial uh play that we were kind of referring to, right? Herb’s guy probably is going to be the one helping, right? So, what should Herb do in that situation? If Zion had the ball, he would probably should screen for Trey, which would open Trey up for a three. Like, there’s there’s alternatives to everything that a a team can do defensively for the offense to exploit. It’s just the offensive job to understand what that is. And they just don’t do a good job of it. Like, if you were to phrase it right there, like, we just don’t do a good job of it consistently. Look at that. Jared, can I can I ask you a question? Cuz cuz Trey could have Trey could have realistically Trey was about to Trey should have stayed. He should have stayed. He should have stayed. Yeah. Can I ask a question, Jared? Yeah. Have you ever seen this much off ball movement when Zion has the ball? Is that Or is it more standing? Is that Zion or So I So what I’m trying to get is why all of a sudden tonight did we see when Derrick Queen got the ball there’s this offball movement. There’s these curls. There’s a rescreen. There’s a flare screen. Obviously, there’s a lot of flare screen design, but why was there all these offball movements and cuts with with Derek Queen, and you don’t see that with Zion? I thought the offense was just different in general, per se, tonight that I tweeted that, right? You did. That wasn’t because that wasn’t because Zion isn’t on the floor. So, do you think this offense would have looked the same tonight with Zion? And I’m not I’m not advocating for Zion to be off the court. I’m just saying in one day or two days as Billy Green as a coach, you think this all of a sudden this this happened? I thought I thought there were some there might have been some conversations between maybe this coaching staff and this looks similar to what like James likes to do, right? Cutting off the high post, playing with the guard like Jose didn’t do anything Devonte Graham didn’t do in in Charlotte tonight. It looked a lot similar to that. But again, this ain’t this ain’t an indictment on Zion, dog. Like, I I don’t think we should be pushing that one. No, you’re right. I I just It looked It just looked completely different tonight. No, it’s the Charlotte Hornets. So, I I would, Leo, and this is this is part of this is part of my fear, and I I want to kind of kind of ask you, I don’t think nobody doing this, though. Who doing this? We’re not. Stop. We’re just we’re just talking about the way Zion plays and the way Queen plays. I want to see both of them on the court. If you follow my tweet my Twitter, my Twitter you follow my Twitter. You’re thinking [ __ ] Chris. If you follow my Twitter, no, I just Chris’s head. That’s me. That’s me. If you’re following my Twitter, I literally posted today on or what stats. Yes, I know it’s you. Plus, minus when Zion and Queen are the four and five and when they’re not. Good job, Justin. Good job. Good job. Way to go, pal. Way to Jesus Christ. Off the rails. Need to watch the film. Go ahead, Chris. I’m sorry. What I would What I would rather them not do is over like it was kind of a continuence of a conversation we had earlier. I would hope that they don’t overreact to what they saw tonight. What I mean by that is Oh man, we got to start Derek Queen tomorrow. Yeah. Like that’s not what this means. Please don’t do that. You know, Jordan P, man. Jordan Pool first three games. Can’t I guess I guess we got to bench him. I guess we got to you know you know you know we need Man, we’re playing we’re playing Joic. We got to start DeAndre Jordan. I guess I just it’s our only The only hope you don’t have to overreact to this. You don’t have to. Every game’s not going to go like this. Uh five used the word earlier, fluid. That’s what games are. They change. They’re not promised. Minutes change, matchups change, performances change. Like, but that’s that’s just that’s that’s how it goes. Do not overreact to this. I wake up and Kavon Looney will be traded. That’s not it. You don’t have to do that. Just play him tomorrow and use some of the [ __ ] that you saw. Throw him the ball and let him be him. Just get out. Get out of his way. Get out of his way. He’s going to [ __ ] up. He’s going to make some bad passes, some bad decisions. He’s gonna have nights. Yep. He’s gonna have nights where he has six turnovers. That’s a part of the game. Give him the same game to leash that you’ve given Jeremiah Fierce to start and I promise you you’re gonna be all right. That’s crazy. Oh, no. Okay. He’s not. No, I’m sorry. He just yawning. So, just don’t don’t overreact. Maybe tomorrow you might not have to play Jos Alvarado that many [ __ ] minutes. You play him tonight. But Jose Jose was really good. He stopped them. He stopped Trey Man and Colin Sexon a few times from getting downhill when they were going through them stretches in the fourth quarter where it was a two-point game and the Pelicans kept turning the ball over. Trey Trey misses a three. Queen gets the rebound. Can’t can’t finish. Jose on the other side at the point attacker defender. Got a few stops and I think he got he got an offensive an offensive foul cause called call, right? He did. Yeah, he did. Like I mean like like so there there are things that there there’s a way for a lot of these guys to play but you don’t have the right manager doing it and that’s the problem. We we super chat about to pass out on the screen. Michael Morgan appreciate you $2 super chat. Will this win give Willie more time? It will Michael unfortunately. Wait wait wait Justin. Wait before we get to super chats. We got to address this. Jordan P didn’t see any of the fourth quarter. No he did. He did. He did. He did. Yeah he did. I’m sorry. Okay. I’m sorry. I was looking at the minutes 27. So he only played 27 minutes though. Yeah, he he wasn’t that good. I mean he was he was terrible. He was three for 14 and he had six assists. So he went whatever. That doesn’t mean you bench don’t bench him like keep him in the starting lineup. So once again don’t overreact like just keep him in the starting lineup for tomorrow. Um Cinjun Carval appreciate $2 chat win back three years. Four boy appreciate the super chat. It’s still fire Willie. I agree. Absolutely. I would have fired him tonight. Like, hey, you won your last home game. IMX, shout out to you, member for nine months. Will you f get a statue? I broke my back spinal $2 super chat. Appreciate you, Roach fan. About to get that picture of Mike Tyson is insane. Extended extended. Uh Shane, you got it’s with the uh it’s with the Shane Clayton to our super chat. Shane, what’s up, man?

Look, I Oh. All right. All right. Say, read it, Justin. Why do I got to read this? Why can’t Why you said these are your rules? Anything. These are your rules. That’s fine. That’s fair. Ken Curveball our super chat. Look, I’d eat. I’m just reading the super chat. Look, I’d eat Gail like a bunt cake to get Willie out of here. I’m not gonna say, you know, they gonna clip that up. Alison Tyler, remember me for 19 months super chat or appreciate you, Alustin. Sorry. Bill Green needs to be investigated for how bad the third quarter is. If he gets money on the third quarter, fire Bill Green. We ain’t talking about the third quarters. But what do you mean, Jay? We’re talking about there’s something happening the second so bad. No, no, no. Hold on, hold on. Can we go Can we go a little further into that? No. Like, I know we we make a joke about it, but we’re also serious about how bad the third quarters are. What the [ __ ] happens? Seriously. Like, like like can you guys give me a scenario, Justin, as a coach? five lead basketball players observers. I can tell you exactly what happens. The coaching staff says one thing and they give their they give their opinion on what should happen and then Willie Green makes his decision. So like what happens is at halftime you have about like five or six minutes and then you’re out, right? So like you you have a couple clips of what you know the other team’s doing. The coaching staff gives their opinions to Willie Green to Bill E. Green. Bill E Green then computes that to his head. He’s like we’re going back with the same starting five. That’s what happens. That’s what happens. That’s exactly what happens. I know that for a fact. It’s what happens. It’s not even there. It’s just like they look uninspired. They feel like something was just like what do you think Willie says at half Jared to get to get them ready to play the third? What What do you think he’s like force? You know, we’re doing a lot of good things. We’re happy. If I’m him, he should just say the opposite of what he thinks because at this point like like it it just they go out into the third quarter just they giving they’re giving up a 100 run off the bat. Like it doesn’t even matter. Like I’m like what? Well, you know what this is about to be. Like imagine that. Imagine knowing that you’re going to lose the third quarter every game. No, they do. That’s they pencil it in. like it’s pencled in Jared. There’s just no adjust like you got to make quick adjustments and just really just remember the Larry Nance adjustment he used to make. We start JB in the first half like hey you’re not gonna see this coming. Larry Nance is starting in the second half. JB dropped a double double in the first in the first half. You know what JB you’re playing too well. We’re gonna go with Larry here for 35 minutes tonight. Okay. Uh Ethan $2 super chat. Appreciate stay hard on them dudes. Uh Ethan salute.
