2:18

I always want to sing it after we hear it. Welcome

2:21

to our volume, Charlotte Wilder. Amina

2:23

Elhassen here in New York. What kind of show

2:25

would we be aiming if I didn't say, hey

2:27

folks, it's Friday. We made it. Welcome to the

2:30

weekend. I can't wait to get out of here.

2:32

I gotta catch a flight and go watch Sons

2:34

of Wolves tonight. Oh my God. Okay, let's

2:36

rip through this. Let's start with the Sixers beating

2:38

the Knicks 125-114. That

2:40

was like the most Philly, New York game I've

2:42

ever seen. That game couldn't be more

2:44

Philly, New York if the game punched a police horse in

2:46

the face and then was like, hey, I'm walking you.

2:48

Oh man. That's almost what happened where I

2:51

watched it with my cousins last night. They

2:53

were I rate. Multiple Knicks fans. Oh my

2:56

God. I thought watching it with one was

2:58

crazy enough. No, no. Just I rate. First

3:00

of all, I love the enthusiasm to start

3:02

the game. There's a lot of yeah,

3:04

yeah. And then like,

3:07

not chance, but like cries for Joel and

3:09

Beat to be expelled from the NBA. Tell

3:11

the good people, tell the good people why if you somehow

3:13

managed to avoid this little bit of... Joel and

3:16

Beat had an amazing game. He dropped 50. But

3:18

before he dropped 50, he like

3:21

went on a warpath. I just played

3:24

every dirty trick in the book. Oh

3:26

yeah. Kicking people in the nuts, elbowing

3:28

people in the kidneys. You got Matt

3:30

Robinson around his ankle and like, hug

3:32

them down. Hip checking. Oh, he had

3:34

a leg sweep too. It

3:36

was like every dirty trick in the book.

3:39

Yeah. And I'm telling you, my

3:41

cousin, cousin proofy in particular, I rate

3:45

like, oh, this guy's dirty. Like this. I

3:47

like that. The turning... Play group two. Get

3:49

him out of there. He should be suspended

3:51

multiple games. I do think though

3:53

that the Mitchell Robinson leg pole while Mitch was

3:55

in the air was pretty gross. That was not

3:57

great. I mean, just because it's obvious, like it's.

4:00

That's not what I said to you in

4:02

the pre-show. I said if he had had his hand

4:04

out like, oh don't fall on me bro. I

4:06

think you've got an argument but he

4:09

grabs and wraps the legs and

4:11

by the way before he did

4:13

that, this is after an unsuccessful

4:16

leg sweep maneuver like Cobra Kai.

4:18

Yeah seriously. Let's

4:20

see what Embiid had to say about all of that. Make

4:23

sure you don't demand no knee because obviously we know

4:25

that he's free out of half

4:28

with Kamenga landing on my

4:30

knee. So I come and

4:32

have no flashbacks, no money paid down

4:34

to him. Unfortunately I

4:36

don't have a leg made to

4:38

our leg body. I just, in

4:41

those situations I gotta protect myself.

4:45

Okay so basically he's saying I

4:47

remember how bad it felt when Jonathan Kamenga

4:50

of the Warriors fell on my knee so

4:52

trying to protect myself by doing the exact

4:54

same thing. I

4:56

also think Embiid's out there

4:58

trying to kill all the Nick centers. Yeah

5:01

look, Precious At Choo was probably sweating

5:03

bullets like, oh man I almost got gone.

5:06

He dodged a bullet. He's gotta watch out

5:09

game four. He's six and his twelve right?

5:11

Yeah, well yeah. It

5:13

also came out that Embiid has been dealing with the case

5:16

of Bell's palsy reported

5:18

by ESPN and said in that same report

5:20

that they had wanted to keep it private.

5:24

Lot going on there. They did not, as Tom

5:26

Habershaw wrote in the finder, they did not disclose

5:28

this as an injury even though it's affected

5:31

his sight. Like

5:34

they kind of exploited an interesting loophole

5:36

and Tom talked to Jeff Stott, our

5:39

friend Jeff Stott from Adinstri Close about

5:41

the concept of double reporting an injury. And

5:44

so when you put the

5:47

injury report out, they

5:49

put out Embiid questionable

5:52

whatever, like soreness, left like soreness.

5:55

So most teams, it's

5:57

extremely rare to list multiple things.

6:00

right? They. Level. Foreigners

6:02

also, By the way, Bell's palsy

6:04

right right? The. A more

6:06

com and will I bought one of the

6:08

rare times it's happen was better the math

6:10

or and from Indiana pacers who was was

6:13

the out with. I. Like a

6:15

regular leg injury or something that needs

6:17

were also he was sick the they

6:19

would that karma illness might what as

6:21

just as points out the time have

6:23

a so on the finder. In

6:25

subscribe. To our suspect. If

6:28

is rare, most the time teams will say

6:30

look as just this thing. Yeah and so.

6:33

The. Sixers. It'll be interesting to

6:35

see what the league does

6:37

because. This. Is it

6:39

A or an organization with a

6:41

history of wanting. These. Rules

6:44

right? The rules of reporting he got

6:46

find. That. Couple weeks ago. When.

6:48

Joel and Bead was listed as out and all.

6:50

The side of the era is going to start

6:52

tonight. Totally fine or they find them one hundred

6:54

thousand dollars. When they did in

6:56

the finest said this is due to

6:58

i had a repeat offender behavior. The

7:01

sixes. Yeah, ill. The interesting to see

7:03

how that plays out. obviously. You know,

7:05

false positive sex? The nerve it in your face.

7:07

Can Freeze. it is very vulnerable thing to

7:09

play in front of everybody with it. Ah

7:12

it seems like that's why I'm beat. Had

7:14

his head down a lot as I he

7:16

is. He's acting out Navy for everything is

7:18

having to deal with. But what do you

7:20

see happening in game four? I just one

7:23

of the one lousy. I like the idea

7:25

that the news could be broken with the

7:27

caviar That. Of others as they they want

7:29

to keep it on the Us lives. Long.

7:32

I was like. It. Dot Com.

7:35

Um. I just just says that this

7:37

idea that like all your will will leak

7:39

it them I will say in the league

7:41

hey we didn't want his league bright. Lights.

7:44

What sort of the hero Like Now he's

7:46

a hero for having played through and instead

7:49

of the or a and sort as a

7:51

victim as while he's also then dragging other

7:53

people down. And what these a villain. He's

7:56

everything is as contain multitudes.

7:58

I'm for ah. Being. Exurbs.

8:02

Go. Down Three One. Okay, Now.

8:05

But. My home and will be very happy to go

8:07

that my cousins okay Guang. Ah, Denver,

8:09

Ally know her? Big.

8:11

Of series it over. Yeah, seeking a series?

8:13

Or Denver beat L at home. One

8:15

twelve to one of five. Ah, Denver

8:17

broke Le Bron James. Here's what he

8:19

said after the game. Allows.

8:23

For you. Away

8:25

about. Indispensable.

8:34

Desert graphical. Okay,

8:37

that's the biggest lie that Le Bron James

8:40

is ever told. This. Is not just basketball his

8:42

last game with the Lakers potentially if he doesn't

8:44

pick up his option in Go Soon as it

8:46

aims to be. Saturday is like in the middle

8:48

of the day getting swept by the Nuggets. And

8:51

the nuggets a whole time a mean have been

8:53

like we've been trying to tell you that like

8:55

this is what we do you keep making about

8:57

the lady be the like a billion times in

8:59

a row with yeah what like that is such

9:01

as I paid we really are have the Lakers

9:03

number will agree. We. Have the edge

9:05

on them with the never lose the them

9:07

and save your Michael Malone or any of

9:10

the other nuggets. You. Have to be

9:12

like yo. What are we have to do to these

9:14

dudes? Riyadh of. Finally, Realized.

9:17

Boot. Because it is a big. We. We

9:19

had a producer met before so as

9:21

I. You. What

9:23

can the Lakers do? What is all over?

9:25

That was the say. have a Centaur Also.

9:28

He did. It is a further eight hours

9:30

a day or the notices inevitable like we're

9:32

watching Nick Sixers this hard fought battle later

9:34

in the mud. dirtier, hard and it's like

9:36

book is one of you. make. The foreign

9:38

of your desk. It has to face the

9:41

nuggets. Anyway, They're like a bizarre. I.

9:43

Mean most the they are the

9:45

favorites. Even above your beloved

9:47

Boston Celtics? Yeah, because because they

9:50

have the Serbian. Assassin.

9:52

Oh no is not easy. Supervillain with

9:54

a bunch of millions? Oh right, sorry

9:56

they have grew here. where

9:59

did you do have fun I mean we're gonna do

10:01

sweep check. Oh Like

10:03

so wait hold on are we saying what

10:05

do we this is for the Lakers? This

10:07

is for LeBron and perhaps his final game

10:10

ever like is he gonna get swept? Yeah,

10:13

that we're asking. Yes, we're gonna we're gonna

10:15

we're gonna get to that This

10:18

is this is the same for for Phoenix and

10:20

New Orleans They could all be swept by the

10:22

time that we next talk to you good people

10:26

Next Tuesday, so we're gonna do a sweep

10:28

check to see how likely we think it

10:30

is that these series will end before

10:33

our next show Okay, we have

10:35

some pretty fun graphics for this like

10:38

sweet. It sounds a lot like heat check Yeah,

10:41

but it's sweep check on a scale of like broom

10:43

like like duster to broom Like

10:46

okay, can we see what that is? Okay. So here

10:48

we go. Do you see these brooms? We've got we've got

10:50

at the At the bottom

10:53

I believe Dustpan

10:56

yeah, and then we've got a broom That's

10:59

a broom and we have a swiffer then we have

11:01

a swiffer wet jet then we have Harry Potter

11:05

On a flying broom. How

11:07

likely is it? I mean that Phoenix

11:12

gets swept by Minnesota.

11:15

Oh, I'm going dustpan Okay,

11:17

right at the bottom sons aren't gonna sweat what

11:20

well I just think that when you beat a

11:23

team four times in a regular season There

11:25

has to have been something there though. It's not like

11:28

they played possum right so like

11:31

Although that would be galaxy brain of the Timberwolves

11:33

would be like we're gonna let you beat us

11:35

and then destroy you That's why they do not

11:37

appreciate us because I'm kind of odd and the

11:40

things I do is the galaxy brings things. Okay

11:43

Nobody please you to me Okay,

11:46

all right, we'll leave that on dustpan.

11:48

Okay now Denver Lakers Denver's up Rio game

11:50

for a Saturday at 8 30 ET

11:56

In Los Angeles, we've got to agree

11:58

on how likely it is that this team gets

12:01

swept and I'm gonna start Harry

12:03

Potter. I think it's over. I

12:05

think it's done. I don't think there's anything,

12:07

there's no magic in the world that

12:09

could save the Lakers from the Nuggets.

12:11

Not even magic. Yeah magic, yeah. They

12:14

literally have magic. They have Magic Johnson and he's

12:17

like tweeting heartbroken emojis and he can't handle the

12:19

truth. He's like it was it was so bad

12:21

I couldn't even tweet. That was after game two.

12:23

That was one of my favorite magic does with

12:25

tweets. He was just saying something. He was so

12:28

moved he could not even like pick up his

12:30

phone. I'm

12:32

gonna go also with

12:35

the Quidditch. Okay great. Harry Potter. Here's why

12:37

for two reasons. One as I've put it

12:39

out the Nuggets beat them every time they

12:42

play for the last two years. Every time.

12:44

Like at some point you're just kind of

12:46

like this isn't like a

12:48

random happening of events. Michael Malone

12:51

even wore a t-shirt that said

12:53

I'm LeBron's daddy. Yo man. And

12:55

then kept beating him. Yes. Yes. It doesn't

12:58

get much more sweepy. Do you remember how

13:00

much shit the Lakers are

13:02

talking in training camp? Yes. Anthony Davis

13:04

and all those guys. He was like

13:06

we're back in his sunglasses. Oh my

13:08

god this guy and yeah. Harry Potter.

13:11

Harry Potter. Leave it all the way up there. The

13:13

other reason why I'm saying this is because if

13:16

they end up winning a

13:18

game. Yes. It'll be like the Super

13:20

Bowl and Christmas for every Laker fan on the Internet.

13:22

And sports media. It'll then turn into Ken LeBron win

13:24

the finals. Oh I'm not even worried about that. I'm

13:27

worried about all the people. I thought you guys said

13:29

that they wouldn't. They'll take

13:31

that with so much pride.

13:34

Okay great. Last game we've

13:36

got is Pelicans vs Thunder. OKC

13:38

is up 2-0. Game 3 is tomorrow. Game 4

13:40

is Monday in New Orleans. What

13:43

do we think here? I mean. Oh man. I

13:46

think we're at mid-range. Yeah.

13:49

Were it like Swiffer or Wetchit? Swiffer.

13:53

I'm not confident that OKC

13:56

is gonna sweep. Look Here's the deal.

14:00

The. Guy on completely out that. The question. like

14:02

for the next two games? you don't know that

14:04

yet? right? Number one number to. The.

14:07

Almost one. Game One I know game To was an

14:09

ass within. but Amazon Game where you know what? Give

14:12

me a regular broom. Okay, Regular.

14:14

Room that. One's this, one's anyone's

14:17

anyone's broom. As they said, anybody's

14:19

ah a mean what a great week! I.

14:22

Know what was up. More show to do.

14:24

I realize I get audio a sudden. Of

14:27

Moria, don't sell it up. Ah, Lie

14:29

detector nods nets they don't. Resist

14:31

that when I saw heart. No, no with.

Welcome that is. It shows the

15:51

so why other amino acid and

15:53

as always. It's over. The thing is that

15:55

you know that we love that he loved the

15:57

you know, the. You love for three months?

16:00

segment. It's a lie detector, Amin, and

16:02

this time it is

16:04

complete with new oddball technology to

16:06

aid both of us in detecting

16:08

lies heard around the NBA. Whoa!

16:16

Amin, we're going to start with you, and

16:19

if you are listening to this and you

16:21

are not watching on a visual medium, which

16:23

you should be, YouTube DraftKings Network, Amin has

16:25

been outfitted with very state-of-the-art technology. It is

16:28

a cord that goes underneath his nose so

16:30

he can sniff out the lies. You

16:32

also have been hooked up with

16:34

some state-of-the-art space age

16:37

technology. Got a little antenna

16:39

on top so you can pick up the

16:41

vibes, the lying vibes. Yeah, if there's a

16:43

lie, I feel it, and it just goes right through

16:45

these cords and zaps me a little bit, and that's what

16:47

I can tell. And I mean, we're going to start with the

16:50

Athletic Anonymous Survey because Rudy Gobert

16:52

was voted the most overrated player

16:54

in an anonymous

16:56

survey, and Gobert's response was,

16:59

I'm more like the odd guy from

17:02

France. Excuse me. I'm more like the

17:04

odd guy from France that's winning a

17:06

lot of awards. I trigger a lot

17:08

of these guys. I mean, is Rudy

17:11

Gobert lying when he says that he wins a lot

17:13

of awards and triggers a lot of guys who think

17:16

he's overrated? Well,

17:19

hold on. Yes, yeah,

17:21

I'm getting a reading. It's clear that

17:24

Rudy Gobert is lying because he

17:29

knows it's not because of the awards. And

17:32

also, he says in his quote something about like, oh,

17:34

it's because I'm a winning player and I do things,

17:36

but it's not flashy, and that's why. And

17:39

it all smacks of someone who just

17:41

has very low self-esteem because everybody hates

17:43

him. As he said, the most tortured player

17:46

on the Timberwolves. Yeah, so I'm

17:48

going to say, yes, the

17:50

lie detector has to determine that

17:52

was a lie. Well, you know,

17:54

Charlotte, your system is a lot

17:56

more sophisticated because of that antenna.

18:00

actually have video transmitted directly

18:02

into your brain. Oh. That

18:05

way I don't have to read the quote. Okay. So

18:07

this is Joe Mazzullo asked if he was bothered

18:10

that no Celtics were nominated for

18:12

any individual awards. No, not

18:14

at all. I think it's beautiful. Why would

18:16

you get an award for the past? Charlotte, is

18:19

Joe Mazzullo lying? Whoa,

18:24

oh gosh, that was quick. It came to me.

18:26

No. Joe Mazzullo is not lying.

18:29

He does think it's beautiful that no one on

18:31

his team that he is the head coach of

18:33

was nominated for a

18:35

regular season award. He thinks it's

18:37

beautiful. He thinks it's beautiful. He thinks that

18:39

means that you're doing it right. He thinks

18:41

that means that that is what real basketball

18:43

is about. Not the past, not the awards.

18:46

All that matters is winning. I

18:48

don't know. I mean, I don't even

18:50

fully know what that means. Why would you get an award

18:52

for the past? Like that's what every award is. Yeah. They

18:55

don't give future awards as far as I know. Yeah. Joe

18:58

Mazzullo is telling the truth. It just doesn't make any sense. I

19:00

just want to point out that when I played

19:03

that video, I used this very state of

19:05

the art controller. Yeah. It's

19:07

a trigger on it and I hit trigger and sent

19:10

those videos to you. That's amazing. All

19:12

right. Technology. What's

19:14

next? I mean, next up is Devin Booker. Let

19:16

me get into it. Okay. You

19:18

ready? Devin Booker said after the

19:21

Suns lost again to the

19:24

Timberwolves, he said, don't count us out. We're

19:27

going to do a series for a reason. I

19:29

mean, is Devin Booker lying?

19:32

You getting a reading there? Getting a

19:35

reading. Getting a reading. Oh, it's coming.

19:38

It's the truth. Really? If

19:41

you're the Phoenix Suns, you

19:43

walk away saying they won the first two at

19:45

home. That's what they're supposed to

19:47

do. Now we go home and we hold

19:49

serve. Also, maybe quite

19:52

slightly, you have to have some confidence that, hey,

19:54

we swept this team in the regular season. They've

19:57

had two great games. Now it's time for

19:59

Devin Booker. for us to have two great games. Okay. I

20:02

like that. Here's another one for

20:04

you, Amine. Nausea Reed was

20:07

named sixth man of the year. He

20:09

beat out Malik Monk by two first

20:11

place votes. And

20:14

someone gave Boyan Bogdanovich

20:16

a third place vote. Whoever gave

20:19

Boyan that vote, were they lying?

20:22

You know what I love before I answer that

20:24

question, I love about the voting process in the

20:26

NBA is that at some point they're going to

20:28

reveal everybody's name. Really? Yeah.

20:31

Who voted for who? what

20:33

every voter voted for. And I want to

20:35

see this fraud

20:38

who picked Boyan Bogdanovich with

20:42

a third, even a third, yes. That's what you're

20:44

picking up here on this detective. That person is

20:46

fraudulent and they know it. There's no way they

20:48

did it in earnest. They knew

20:50

that they were lying when they did it.

20:53

We're going to find out. We're also going to find out

20:55

who the hell didn't vote for Malik Monk. That.

20:59

I thought he ran away with it. Wow.

21:02

Thought he ran away with it. Nazmida, great year. Malik

21:04

Monk should have been sixth man of the year. Wow,

21:07

you heard it here first folks. Those oddball hot

21:09

takes you can't get anywhere else. All right Charlotte.

21:11

People looking like them. Hold on, let me cue this

21:13

up. Okay,

21:15

so Minnesota made credit its

21:17

success so far to

21:19

Anthony Edwards and Rodie Guevara. But

21:22

the internet speculates that there's another

21:25

candidate worthy of getting

21:28

credit. Who's that? It's Red Panda. Now

21:31

I'm going to try and put up the sweet who

21:33

you're, let me know if you see

21:35

that. Oh,

21:38

hold on, let me get this. Yeah, here it is. Up, down, left,

21:40

right, okay, there you go. Oh, no, that's Nazmida. You pushed the wrong

21:43

button to me. Left, left, right, up, down, side, trigger. Oh,

21:48

I got to hold them down at the same time. Oh yeah, okay. Hold

21:50

them down at the same time. Yeah. Oh,

21:52

there it is. Okay, so Timberwolves

21:54

before Red Panda performed minus

21:57

one. Timberwolves after Red

21:59

Panda. performed plus 13. Yep.

22:02

That's what happened when she performed the

22:04

halftime. Her plus minus is

22:06

plus 13. Okay. It's plus 14

22:08

if you do the on off. Yeah. Uh,

22:11

I detect no lies. Really? I detect

22:13

no lies. Red Panda gets a crowd going. I

22:16

talked about this on Pobletory find out the halftime

22:18

performers are just as much a part of the

22:20

game experience. They keep the crowd going for the

22:22

players at halftime. They

22:24

keep the energy up. They keep everybody

22:27

involved. Who is more mind blowing than

22:29

Red Panda. She's riding a

22:31

unicycle tossing bulls onto her head

22:33

like this, except without the, you

22:35

know, sophisticated. I have knowledge. So

22:37

no, I don't know. Yes.

22:40

She is analog bulls. I have a

22:43

tech in a lot. Digital bull. Anyway,

22:45

uh, no, no, no lies detected here. I think that

22:47

Red Panda is a difference maker. Uh, I'm going

22:50

to throw this out there. This might anger some

22:52

people. Wait, hold on. Maybe

22:54

I should type this in for you

22:56

to detect the lies. Bottom line. Okay. Red

22:59

Panda. Pastor

23:02

prime. Blasphemy. Get

23:04

out. Get out. The segment's

23:06

over. I can't co-host a

23:08

show with you. Just

23:11

kidding. We have a little bit more to get to. We got to close

23:13

the show with some odds and ends. You can take your logic off if

23:16

you want. Because this, this thing, you know,

23:18

it's pretty intense. Yeah, I know

23:20

mine is a little too attached to my

23:22

head to take off, but you can, you

23:24

can remove yours. Um, the term was Jayden

23:26

McDaniel's recently spoke with the athletic about punching

23:28

a wall in frustration and breaking his hand

23:30

last year. And he said, quote, it's embarrassing

23:32

that I punched a wall. It's silly. I

23:34

was down for a couple of days. Sure.

23:37

He said it would have been different if I got hurt

23:39

playing, trying to battle, just hurting myself.

23:42

I felt selfish. Now McDaniel's locked

23:44

on Kevin Durant in game two

23:46

against the sons. He had 25.8 rebounds.

23:49

Is this the best redemption

23:51

arc in the NBA right now? Absolutely

23:53

not. The best redemption. I

23:55

mean, it's a pretty cool story. Yeah. The

23:57

cool story is frustration last year. I

24:00

do the thing that I, maybe I'm

24:02

just a sociopathic, soulless person, but I

24:04

just don't understand, people get so mad,

24:07

they punch walls. Like, it's just,

24:09

I would never, I'm not gonna

24:11

how mad I was, it never occurred to

24:13

me like, that's the object of my ire.

24:15

I have punched a paper towel dispenser before.

24:17

Really? Yeah. Did it punch back? And then

24:19

I kicked a wall. Oh no, was

24:22

this same incident or different incident? No, and

24:24

it both hurt. I had, it was a

24:26

very, those things, a wall and a paper

24:28

towel dispenser that's metal, those are pretty tough.

24:31

The best redemption arc right now.

24:34

The Knicks? The Knicks. It's

24:36

the Knicks, it's gotta be the Knicks. Yeah. Right?

24:38

So, unless the Heat win this series, in the

24:40

which case it's gonna be the Heat. Jesus. Do

24:43

you know how I knew it was the Knicks? Mm-hmm. Cause

24:45

I still have my gear on, so it, yeah,

24:47

it came right through into my brain. All right,

24:49

we've got a couple

24:51

of Frenchman. What? You think

24:54

Rudy Gobert and then when Muyama is the, no,

24:56

it's merely the beginning. We got a couple of Frenchman

24:59

who are going to be among the

25:01

top prospects in the draft. What? This

25:04

year, yes. Okay. Zachary

25:06

Ries-Ache and

25:09

Alexander Tsar. Who's down, Alexander Tsar

25:11

sounds like a bad guy from

25:13

a Mission Impossible movie. Yeah, 100%

25:15

plays by Alexander Tsar's guard. There

25:19

you go. Alexander Tsar, some people speculate, might

25:21

be the number one overall pick, right? So,

25:23

and he's a seven footer and he's

25:26

skilled, like when Muyama, so

25:28

how much pressure do you think when Muyama's

25:30

putting on the French? A ton. You

25:33

think anybody thought, like, no offense to Rudy

25:35

Gobert, you think anybody thought, oh, French guys

25:37

go to basketball before Victor Muyama? I

25:39

mean, Tony Parker, Vars D'Ala. Right,

25:42

okay, but like recently, like the

25:44

French and basketball were not really

25:47

in the cultural conversation.

25:49

Then this massive Frenchman comes on, also, by

25:51

the way, I have not seen that many

25:53

tall Frenchmen. Let me just tell you right now, they

25:56

were back in the conversation last year

25:58

before Muyama played a game. For

26:00

the brief several weeks that Joel Embiid was a French

26:02

citizen and was going to play for the French national

26:04

team. Right. Do you know that

26:06

the president was so mad at Macron, the president of

26:09

France? The president of France? He fought the trade.

26:11

Yeah. So, so did... Frederick

26:13

Vice. Frederick Vice. We

26:16

got two? Yeah, those are about on par with the

26:18

same power in the world. No, I just,

26:20

I think that, I think that when Vignama has done

26:22

something to the French where they used to be able

26:24

to be like, oh, we do

26:27

not care about anything. And

26:29

now they really have to care about basketball and they really have to

26:31

care about being good because if this guy is going to be the

26:33

next overall pick, that's a lot of pressure on him. You

26:35

know what they call basketball in France? Bascuite

26:37

bole? Bascuite. Bascuite.

26:41

Bascuite. Sounds like Bisquick. Almost.

26:44

All right. Last story?

26:46

Yeah, let's do the last story. JJ Rettick

26:48

is reportedly... Your

26:50

good friend, JJ Rettick. Yeah, my good friend and neighbor.

26:52

Yep. Not to say where he lives.

26:55

Well, you just gave it away. Okay. JJ

26:57

is being interviewed for the Hornets head

26:59

coach job. The Hornets were 21 and

27:01

six of them this year. And JJ

27:03

said on our Good Friend Paul Vartorius

27:06

podcast, he would be open to coaching.

27:08

Yeah. Think this happens? It sounds like

27:10

he's a little bit more than open. He interviewed

27:12

for the job. Right. He interviewed for

27:14

an opening. Well, always take a meeting. It's

27:17

weird because obviously JJ's

27:19

a smart player. He's a smart guy. He's

27:22

a smart media guy. This

27:26

is my theory. You

27:29

have to not have a life to

27:31

be good at this thing. If you're someone who

27:33

has life and options and things and stuff like

27:35

that, this ain't for you. And

27:38

I look at JJ, I'm like, JJ, you're smart. You got so much

27:40

stuff going for you. Like, no, this is

27:42

for the desperate... This is like the Tom Fibberos.

27:44

The people don't want to see the sun. The

27:46

only light they get is off the glare of

27:49

their monitors as they watch film over and over

27:51

again. Let's say that JJ is

27:54

not capable of doing that. It's

27:56

just at some point, if I live

27:58

in a building that doesn't have an elevator... I'm used

28:00

to taking stairs. If I live in a

28:02

building that has an elevator, yeah, I can take

28:05

the stairs, but at some point I'm like,

28:07

man, the hell with this, I'm taking the elevator, and I

28:09

think, JJ, you know, like, you've got other options in life,

28:11

man, don't be miserable. Well, stick with oddball,

28:13

don't be miserable, we're the elevator, everybody

28:16

else talking about basketball, the stairs. She's telling

28:18

the truth. Hey,
