Now the US Open is here and on my podcast, Good Game with Sarah Spain. I'm breaking down the players, the predictions, the pressure, and of course, the honey deuces, the signature cocktail of the U.S. open. The U.S. open has gotten to be a very wonderfully experiential sporting event.

Jake Hofer
I'm Jake Hofer and this is Back 40, a limited series show on Wire to Hunt, part of Meat Eaters Podcast Network. Each episode I'll be asking eight whitetail hunting pros a focused, thought provoking question about hunting and land management. How do I hunt the best part of the farm with less than ideal access?
DJ Wills
Should you? That's what the real question is. Should you stand without good access is not a good stand.

Brian
He got a lot of stuff on though.
Mook
Them socks was wearing them socks, boy.
DJ Wills
And knee pad and knee pads.
Mook
That's old.
Brian
And the elbow pad.
Jeff Teague
He got a lot of stuff.
Mook
WD40 right there. Still getting to it.
Brian
Kill him.
DJ Wills
Swing that back. Put a hand up Bobby.
Mook
I know. They used to play him and Steve Nash together like that though.
DJ Wills
A real bucket.
Mook
Loki. Small ball. For real.
DJ Wills
He came off the bench floaties.
Jeff Teague
It was cold.
DJ Wills
He was killing him. Bobby Jackson, whoever. It was Christmas. Bang bang. Watch out. Fasa.
Jeff Teague
Damn.
DJ Wills
He always freaked up far as hell, man. Shout out to Nick the Quick man off the bench with a 40 ball in the playoffs. That's tough.
Brian
His Laker mixtape is crazy though.
DJ Wills
Oh, bro. Him and Eddie Jones, they was going crazy, bro.
Brian
Elite.
Jeff Teague
Yeah. Quick Quick. One of my favorite players. That's my guy, man. I love Quick to death.
DJ Wills
How y' all think he would have fared today's NBA with this type of play?
Jeff Teague
Great.
Brian
Fit right in.
Jeff Teague
Yeah. Scoring point guard.
Mook
Yeah, he was ahead of his time.
Brian
And his game looked good. It's something.
Mook
Yeah, that bounce was him.
Brian
Rod Strickland, they had them type of games that you want to see.
Jeff Teague
And he shot a lot of three. Yeah, he fit right in. It's crazy to watch him play. Cause I used to shoot one leg floaters and he used to always get mad at me. He'd be like, man, if you don't go off two feet, man, you got more control. So to watch him shoot all them two foot floaters, it's pretty impressive. But he used to be mad I shot that one foot. He like roll your ankle, man. Yeah, I did that all the time.
Brian
He ain't wrong.
DJ Wills
He telling you. In the training session he got here, he got 40 with 10 of the points. Was all left hand off one leg. Hey, man, shout out to nigga quick. One of the ones for sure, man. All listen, man. Golden State, can they compete for a championship with everybody over the age of 35? Roll a clip.
Brian
I think we can't a level of know how. I think what we did last year was last three quarters or a third of the season after the trade deadline when we were, you know, top three in the league. Both offense, defense, all the elementary stuff show we were a really good team. Obviously, we have to stay healthy, get through, you know, regular season at a high level, but I like the identity that we have and the foundation of knowing how to play together, you know, towards the end of last season that we can hopefully translate to this year. So we're never going to get that question asked a lot because of the age. And this is something that it has to be every really single tour, but that's the beautiful shot.
DJ Wills
All right, listen, they got Jimmy after TR down last year, jilled a little bit late, got a first round victory, but, you know, Steph got hurt being we know how he feel about the warriors, but do they have a chance to contend in the West?
Mook
No, I don't really see it, but I see them competing for sure. I'm gonna just be honest, like, I don't see them winning the championship for real.
DJ Wills
Okay.
Brian
It'll be tough, but I can see Steph Curry and Jimmy still got something left. Yeah, they can still make a push. I feel like they do need a youngster like Jonathan Kaminga or something that could give them that push, but I feel like they. I don't think they too old yet. I think they still gotta push.
DJ Wills
All right, T, how you feeling about him?
Jeff Teague
I think they gotta get a big with that small ball lineup. I'm a fan of Draymond, but I just don't think that's gonna hold up no more. He can't guard Jokic and all them dudes for a long period of time.
Mook
Yeah, that's tough.
Jeff Teague
There's too many people out West.
Brian
What happened to Big Al? That ain't over.
Jeff Teague
But I don't think.
DJ Wills
He ain't a Russia sign nowhere.
Jeff Teague
But I just don't think that can hold up no more. Jimmy playing the four, all that small stuff now with OKC having Chad at the four and whoever they want to play at the five or they just got too many options. I think Steph Curry is still one of the greatest. I think he's still going to be able to lead a team and take over. I think Jimmy still has that mold too, but after that, they get kind of spooky.
Mook
I don't think they gonna be like garbage or nothing. I just. To win the championship, it's probably gonna take more than what they think.
DJ Wills
Yeah, I think that like you said, if they can go get a solid big, we've seen a lot of names rumored to go to the team last two years. If they can get a quality big in the team, I think that changes everything for sure.
Jeff Teague
Yeah.
Mook
Steph's supposed to say that, though, you know what I mean? With your guys, so I get it.
Jeff Teague
But if they got a Vucevic or somebody, then I could like, dang. They might be able to make a push. Even though Vucc is not like a good defender or anything. But he's a capable scorer. But they. And then they got like a backup big that could guard a little bit. Yeah. Or if trace. And they'll make some leaps that we don't know that they. Some work they've been putting in there. I mean, I'm not banking on them. No disrespect to Trace, but, you know, people get better. Maybe one of them make a leap.
DJ Wills
Like you said in the west, those bigs that they talking about, size definitely does matter out there, and they are in lack of it for sure. We shall see. For sure, man. Shout out to the Warriors. Are we in the super chat this morning with it? All right. And I says when I come out the room of my tea time accessories arm sleeve, headband, hoodie, she whisper in my ear, Elite got me this like Ray Lewis or 04. If your girl whisper, at least you're here. You got a whole lot of this property in Tokyo. Gang John helps. It says, good morning, gang. Y' all lying. Say we wouldn't recognize gusher head as Berry bonds in person. Homie got one of my head pause. Damn. Why are you rossberry like that? Disrespectful to the legend. Jalen Watson says, mookie, you were a killer in high school, college, but what do you think caused you not to reach your full potential or play as long as you wanted to in the league?
Brian
Just being young and immature, you know, sitting on the game for 10, 15. I mean, sitting on the bench for 10, 15 games in a row instead of just locking in, getting in the gym. I probably was immature about it. Getting an attitude, being upset instead of being a pro. You know, I was young, 19, just not handling situations the way I should at times. You got to be a pro at all times. Lock in, get in that gym. Sometimes I ain't do that.
DJ Wills
Well said, brother Dan. The super chat says, good morning. 5:20, keep killing it from Houston. We tapped in for sure. Shout out to be here for the connect. Hope to get y' all on the show. Also look up the Isaiah Carey fly video. That's our host. Where y' all interested to do in Houston? Be here. Yeah. Your home city, Home state?
Mook
Yeah, that's my town, man. We just trying to come out and enjoy the people, man, that support us, man. That's it. Enjoy the day while we're there and just make the most of it. That's it, bro.
DJ Wills
Most definitely can't wait to pull up in Houston, man. First seat in the tour. We're gonna turn it up for show Malachi. The Super Chat says Jeff talked about a little bit, but what other older players did you or did you not get revenge on that you look up to other than Brian?
Jeff Teague
I don't even know. I just be joking, bro. I don't really be. I wouldn't really after hunting for old people, like it just happened to happen like that, but I don't know.
DJ Wills
Yeah. Did you have a matchup when you were looking forward to getting to the league or somebody you're looking for? Like. I can't wait to go against him.
Jeff Teague
Nah, not that I couldn't wait to go against. I mean, I just wanted to like, meet them. Okay. Allen Iverson and like Jason Williams. I just wanted to meet him. I ain't really care about playing against him. I wanted to meet Gil. I ain't really care. I wasn't an NBA fan.
DJ Wills
Yeah, you saw.
Jeff Teague
So it didn't really one like that.
DJ Wills
Alan, the Super Chat says rotel dip, buffalo dip, spinach dip. Beehin in five.
Mook
That's Patreon right there.
DJ Wills
All right. He went to Super Chat, said, who's the Go Sports owner? Someone like Stan Konoki who wins everywhere he puts his money, or in the Robert Craft who dominates his respect for sport? That's a good question. Goat Sports owner say Jerry, man. Jerrell see the documentary.
Mook
I'm taking Jerry.
Jeff Teague
Yeah.
Mook
I'm taking Jerry Jones all day.
DJ Wills
Yeah, it's hard.
Jeff Teague
Yeah. I mean, he. He built that up to win or lost. Either him or whoever own the Knicks, bro. Yeah, like, what's the dude named, Nick Dolan? Yeah. Because both of them franchises just worth so much and they never win.
Mook
And the Lakers, I was about to.
Brian
Say, you got the Lakers in there then.
Jeff Teague
Yeah. Yeah, but the Lakers win. Yeah. Like the Knicks and the Cowboys don't ever.
Mook
You know what? That's true.
DJ Wills
Yeah. But the Lakers good too.
Jeff Teague
Not Marquis one's, definitely.
DJ Wills
But the Lakers have had Kobe, LeBron. Now, look, bro, the Knicks have not had none of those names, bro.
Jeff Teague
Then they still they still right there with the Lakers.
Brian
Because New York, bro. But the Cowboys, they.
DJ Wills
Yeah, yeah, that's bro.
Mook
Because they're. They're trash every year.
Jeff Teague
Yeah, they won when I was seven years old.
Mook
The biggest hype team ever.
Brian
They hang on to them championships from 100.
Mook
Even when we dead and gone, they still gonna be Cowboy fans. The Cowboy fans born today, bro.
DJ Wills
Yes, bro.
Jeff Teague
That's how the Knicks are, though. Think about how lit the Knicks was. They made to the conference finals.
Mook
Oh, it was, sir.
Jeff Teague
Oh, it was like, what?
Brian
Yeah, they was going crazy.
Jeff Teague
They fired they coach because they was like, we was right there. We should have won it all. Yeah, yeah.
Mook
You messed everything up.
DJ Wills
They're not used to nice things.
Jeff Teague
We ruined our lives the year before.
DJ Wills
When they went to the semiconductor file, they were so excited. Nasty work. All right, Bird, the word in super chat says. What up, though? 520 family. We need a tour in Detroit. For sure. We love Detroit. Which I think the chances are. The Pistons being a top four seed in the East. Other than the Cavs and Knicks, I don't see a better team.
Mook
I think they will be.
Jeff Teague
I mean, Orlando right there, which the Hawks, depending on KP and injuries and all that stuff. They could be right there with y'.
DJ Wills
All.
Jeff Teague
Quiet team for me would probably be the Miami Heat, adding Norman Powell and Peasy Khalil. Wear Bam Wig Tyler Hero.
Mook
That's fire. Oh, damn.
Jeff Teague
We had to get a fine bucket, bro. He do this every day, bro.
Mook
Wake up.
Jeff Teague
But I think Miami Heat could have a chance to be really good, though.
Mook
I like that, though. I like that. I think they need one more piece, though.
Brian
Detroit. I think they'd be a top four seed, bro.
DJ Wills
I think so, too. I think, like you said. Yeah, they got opportunity, too, if they can build up what they had last year. Obviously.
Brian
Who really better than them? Magic, Cleveland, the Knicks.
Mook
Yeah, I know how I feel about the East. I ain't.
DJ Wills
All right.
Mook
No argument here, Carol.
DJ Wills
I'd be back.
Jeff Teague
Toronto could be a player, too this year, but if everybody's healthy, Scotty Bones.
Brian
I think they'll make the playoffs.
Jeff Teague
Toronto, they all healthy. They got a chance to be.
DJ Wills
If they don't, it's a super problem. Because in the East.
Brian
Yeah, that's what I'm saying.
DJ Wills
Sweet. At least to play in for sure. For this team. Yeah. I want to see this team play at this point. They have a lot of talent. They got a lot of wins. They got a lot of versatile players.
Brian
What, to make the playoffs? I think they can make it, bro.
Jeff Teague
With Emmanuel Quickley, Brandon Ingram, R.J. barrett, Scotty Barnes. If you can't make the.
Mook
It's definitely a good team if you.
Jeff Teague
Can'T make the playoffs. And this Jacob Portal. If you can't make the playoffs in the east this year, you need to fire the coach. They already fired the gm, but they need to fire the coach because they.
DJ Wills
Have an expensive roster. They don't have a team by any means. They pay. A lot of people chicken on that team, bro.
Jeff Teague
They got max players on this team.
Brian
They should win, bro.
DJ Wills
Jacob Porto's getting paid and man Quick is getting paid. RJ's definitely getting paid.
Mook
And Scotty Six making the playoffs before the Raptors.
Jeff Teague
Brandon Ingram getting paid, too. The Sixers supposed to make it too. Look at the salary.
Brian
They gotta be healthy.
DJ Wills
Oh, if the Sixers don't make the playoffs this year healthy, then it's. It's a joke.
Jeff Teague
If the Sixers don't make the playoffs without Joel Embiid, it's still a joke. Cause you got Tyrese Maxey, Paul George.
Mook
Yeah, I like that roster better than Toronto.
DJ Wills
Oh, I don't disagree with that either.
Jeff Teague
I mean, you like this roster better than Toronto. I like Toronto better than that.
Mook
I mean, I like.
Jeff Teague
Without Joel Embiid.
Mook
I love Brandon Ingram. I'm ready for him to get back to all star mode.
Brian
But they all him. Scotty Barnes.
Mook
No, they good, bro. I'm just only really a fan of him.
DJ Wills
I'm taking Tyrese backseat over, man. Quickly.
Brian
Yeah.
DJ Wills
Guard spot.
Jeff Teague
Yeah. But after that. No. Especially if Joel Embiid don't play.
Brian
RJ Beard, bro. They got a cool team.
DJ Wills
Shout out to Jerry McCain.
Jeff Teague
Even your white boy, Grady D. My guy, my dog.
Mook
That's love.
DJ Wills
Nah, man. I think the Pistons got a chance to be a top four seed, though. Like you said, they keep building off. They got last year.
Jeff Teague
Ty. Toronto have to make the playoff. That'll be a. That'll be.
Mook
You got to get rid of everything.
Jeff Teague
Yeah.
DJ Wills
You got to just.
Jeff Teague
Yeah, yeah.
DJ Wills
You pay too much money, bro.
Jeff Teague
You pay quick making 100 something.
Mook
Scotty Barnes, Max, right.
Jeff Teague
Max 1000. Brandon Ingram getting paid a lot. RJ Barrett at least 20 plus again.
DJ Wills
But I think next year too.
Jeff Teague
Something crazy. We got five, six players. 100 plus we got.
Brian
We gotta win some games.
DJ Wills
Yeah. The east is weak, bro. We at least got to be playing. If we can't make a plan with this type of.
Mook
Oh, I'm saying, okay, let's. We jumping ahead. But if they're playing, do we still blow the team up?
Brian
Yeah, playing.
Mook
That's a fail vision for them, bro.
Brian
Oh, well, they should at least be a six, seven seed, bro.
DJ Wills
All right. I mean, playing a seven, so I'm back. If they hit that seven spot, I mean, cool.
Jeff Teague
They need to be six.
DJ Wills
Yeah. Okay. Okay, now we're looking here. Obviously Cleveland will be up there, the Knicks will be up there. Milwaukee, Detroit. Oh, it's Milwaukee.
Jeff Teague
I feel like Toronto should be better than Milwaukee. Milwaukee.
Brian
Yeah.
Jeff Teague
I mean, they still got Giannis, Miles Turner, but after that, Bobby Porters, they. They big, heavy. They don't got no guards.
DJ Wills
If the Raptors have a better year than Milwaukee, he good.
Brian
But.
Jeff Teague
But look at they. They primary players is Cole Anthony, baby. They primary players. Kyle Kuzma, Miles Turner, Giannis and Bobby Portis. These is all fours and fives.
Mook
I mean, KP and Cole Anthony can get you a bucket.
Brian
Nah, they good, but them as they prime play, like, if they coming off giving me a spark off the bench, I'm cool with that. But one of them is my starting guard, bro.
Mook
So just off looking at the rosters alone, Toronto is a better team than.
DJ Wills
I think so.
Jeff Teague
Yeah.
DJ Wills
Yeah. That just got Giannis.
Brian
If I got Kevin Porter Jr. Coming off the bench where I'm with it, I don't want him to be my starting point guard.
Jeff Teague
Me? Yeah. I like Cole Anthony.
DJ Wills
Yeah. But I'm taking IQ over those guys quickly.
Mook
I ain't mad at it.
Jeff Teague
Okay, well, I'm gonna take. I'm gonna take Brandon Ingram over whoever they two guard gonna be.
Mook
Oh, the thousand percent.
DJ Wills
Thanks.
Jeff Teague
And then Giannis is just the outlier on that Milwaukee team. I think Miles Turner and Jacob Polo, they kind of like cancel each other out.
Mook
What about Miles Turner?
Jeff Teague
I think Jacob and him cancel each other out. I think he. Jacob's a better center when it comes to like rebounding and all that stuff.
Mook
Yeah.
Jeff Teague
Miles a better shooter.
Mook
Yeah.
Jeff Teague
He giving you 14 and 9. Miles probably giving you.
Mook
That's pretty good.
DJ Wills
Very similar.
Brian
And he liked the fourth option.
Jeff Teague
15 and second option.
Mook
Yeah. Miles got wing numbers.
Brian
He's a second option, too.
Jeff Teague
Miles not rebounding. He 15, six. But for that team, he don't got to because Giannis get all the rebound, but he stretched the floor. So they. What they do is different for each team, but.
DJ Wills
Yeah, but I can.
Jeff Teague
I say they cancel each other out if they play.
Brian
They do.
Jeff Teague
Okay.
Mook
Toronto.
DJ Wills
Yeah, man. Should be a good year for Detroit. We shall see. All right, man. Salu was on Club Shay. He's talking about Kyrie leaving the Cabs. Let's Load up the clip. So basically, LeBron. Oh, go ahead.
Jeff Teague
I'm sorry.
Mook
Oh, that shirt. Crazy.
DJ Wills
Yeah, yeah, that shirt is a little wild.
Jeff Teague
That's probably a nice brand, but that looked like something I got. Peddlers.
DJ Wills
No, it's Louie for sure.
Mook
Yeah, that's definitely Louis.
Jeff Teague
But that look. Peddlers.
DJ Wills
Yeah.
Mook
I said, where my hood at? That shirt?
Jeff Teague
I mean, I'm a freaking get my house. Long as you let me took a.
Mook
Kango off with that boy.
Jeff Teague
He said, no, no, no. It take 15 minutes. Hey, nada. I've been pepper sprayed a few times in my life.
Mook
What's this girl name?
DJ Wills
Sugar was the beans that day he got active.
Jeff Teague
Boy, what you doing with my sugar? Get your head on my sugar bowl.
Mook
She was on this wig. I was like, I'm freaked out.
DJ Wills
Nasty time. But allegedly, Tyler said on the pod that, you know, said LeBron was crushed when Kyrie got traded. He said he was out doing some. Some in the field work with his foundation, and he said he just went flat for about 10 minutes. He was mad. Kind of hard for me to believe that LeBron didn't know that Kyrie was getting traded.
Jeff Teague
He. He said he didn't want him to get traded. Yeah, he said he knew he was gonna get traded, but he was just hoping that they said he had another year on this deal. So they was like, hopefully they just keep him and.
Mook
Yeah, that's some totally different things.
Jeff Teague
Yeah, yeah, yeah. I. I'm starting to believe. I don't think I know LeBron get people traded, but I don't think he'd be knowing everything. Like sometimes he be like, he probably don't care, bro. The robberies, the marching bands, the Saturday mornings. Football is back, baby. College football at that.

Noah de Barrasso
I'm Noah. I'm 13, and as you might have seen from the news, I got a podcast and I explain those fake headlines like your uncle would, like your cousin would, if he actually did the research. Honestly, adults don't ask the right questions. Now you know with Noah de Barrasso is a show about influence. Who's got it, how they use it, and what it means. For the rest of you, it's not the news. It's what the news should be if someone Gen Z or Gen Alpha made it. When I'm watching everything.
DJ Wills
Sheesh.
Noah de Barrasso
Majority of the youth 18 through 24 say they trust Republicans more than Democrats to fund the economy.
Jeff Teague

Sarah Spain
The U.S. open is here. And on my podcast, Good Game with Sarah Spain, I'm breaking down the players, from rising stars to legends chasing history. The predictions? Well, we see a first time winner and the pressure. Billie Jean King says pressure is a privilege, you know. Plus the stories and events off the court. And of course, the honey deuces, the signature cocktail of the U.S. open. The U.S. open has gotten to be a very fancy, wonderfully experiential sporting event. I mean, listen, the whole aim is to be accessible and inclusive for all tennis fans. Whether you play tennis or not. Tennis is full of compelling stories of late. Have you heard about icon Venus Williams, recent wildcard bids? Or the young Canadian Victoria Mboko making a name for herself? How about Naomi Osaka? Getting back to form?

Jeff Teague
Like, to be real, like playing basketball, you really don't care about other people. You honestly don't mook. You know that now.
Brian
We don't. But Brian, his situation a little different, bro.
Jeff Teague
Nah. But I'm saying he's still like. When you hear Brian, when he away from the cameras and he just being normal. Like when he was golfing, you could tell Brian is like one of us still. He like, yeah, look at this swing.
Mook
Yeah.
Jeff Teague
Like he started being so like, you know, when he go home, he probably like, hey man, we need. We need this person. We need that person.
Brian
Yeah.
Jeff Teague
And then after a while, he probably. I don't give. All right, bro, I'm going to la. Anyway. Like, he probably knew his plans already. Like, bro, I'm going to LA.
Brian
I don't think he. He knew about the 80s stuff or he didn't care about that, man, he.
Jeff Teague
Probably was like, man, he bon his way out. He probably ain't care. He probably like, man, we can't win with it. We ain't winning anyway. Oh no, we about to get Luca. Bet we gonna get Luke.
DJ Wills
I might buy into that one. The 80 stuff that he might have been as privy to that. But the Kyrie stuff I ain't rolling with because it was too much tension beforehand.
Brian
That's prom. Brian too. He was, he was in the Mix then he was trying to win. He might not care as much no more.
Jeff Teague
Yeah, he probably. I'm saying he cared. Yeah, I mean, I'm sure he probably was like, we don't want Kyrie to leave. Like, but if Kyrie said, I don't want to be here, he probably, like, fuck it. He don't want to be here.
Mook
And, I mean, I don't think Tyloo will go out his way to say that the man was down for 10 minutes and all that.
Jeff Teague
No, I'm saying he probably didn't want him to go. Yeah, but when he. I believe that, he probably was like, I ain't about to beg him to stay.
Brian
Definitely.
Jeff Teague
I don't think he about to be calling somebody and be like, hey, will you please, please stay? I need that.
Brian
You don't want to be here. You don't want to be here.
DJ Wills
Damn, I got a lot of work next season.
Jeff Teague
Yeah, it's probably what he told. He's like, man, I done did crazier stuff in my career. Let me see if I can make it great again. Let me see. We gonna get D Way and D Rose, and then let's see what we can do. It wasn't working. He was like, let's get these guys out of here.
DJ Wills
Yeah, let's get another crew member. Chicago. Wicked times, for sure. More. In this interview, Tyler was talking about Jordan playing in today's modern era. Let's hear it.
Jeff Teague
We ain't gonna hear none go in.
DJ Wills
I've heard a lot of people say the game, the way it's. And the way it's being officiated today, knowing that it's eight bets.
Mook
I record 20 average.
DJ Wills
Yeah. Four.
Brian
You move, J. Lou, you're driving, T. Lou, come on.
DJ Wills
It's a problem.
Mook
In the world, but.
DJ Wills
You know what I'm saying? You got the best player in the world. 45. T. Lou, what he average? 36 one year. He has 37. 37. Yeah.
Brian
So, yeah, add eight to that. I mean, it is MJ, but 45 is a lot of points, bro.
DJ Wills
I mean, we seen James harden almost average 40. I feel like MJ could do it, bro.
Jeff Teague
Bro, that dude was such a killer. He was, bro.
Brian
He probably could have did it, bro, because you can't touch nobody.
Jeff Teague
I legit think he could have averaged, like 42 to 43.
Brian
You really can't touch people now. So he was playing through getting tackled, bro.
Mook
So, yeah, I'm rolling.
DJ Wills
And bro was relentless. He was on his rush type stuff.
Jeff Teague
For the ball every single time, bro.
DJ Wills
Yeah.
Mook
And they was really handling him different.
Jeff Teague
He never cared about being top. And assist.
Brian
Yeah, that wasn't even a thought.
Jeff Teague
No.
Mook
That's why I used to be surprised. I'm like, dang, Jordan. Average six assists this year. That's a lot of assist, bro.
Brian
Sometimes you just gonna. You don't get a couple assists just off having the ball so much.
Mook
Nah. Yeah, I'm just saying. But for me, the average 37 and 6 them was some firing outbush, bro.
Brian
Ridiculous.
DJ Wills
I gotta pass those double sometimes.
Brian
That's what I'm saying. Sometimes you'll get assist on accident, I think.
Jeff Teague
What do you average 30 for his career? Yeah.
DJ Wills
Yeah, bro, that's.
Jeff Teague
Yeah, he probably would average 40 in one year. He would average 45.
Brian
Yeah. You can't say he wouldn't like he had a shot.
Jeff Teague
Probably average 30 for his career, bro. My career high is 34.
Mook
If you weren't in the gym enough.
Jeff Teague
And I just won that gifted.
Brian
You ain't gonna be Jordan. I don't care how much you.
Jeff Teague
Yeah.
DJ Wills
As a Rookie, he averaged 28.
Brian
Yeah.
Mook
How would you thirsty for your career?
Jeff Teague
Think about this this way.
Brian
It's a rookie.
Jeff Teague
He averaged my career high for three years.
Mook
Yeah, bro.
Jeff Teague
Damn.
DJ Wills
It's just tears, rookie. Bro.
Brian
You going to the best league in the world. You like, you come at average 28. I'm the best out the gate, bro.
Mook
And you was a starter in the NBA. That's crazy.
Jeff Teague
You started majority of your career crazy.
Mook
MJ average, your career high. That's crazy.
DJ Wills
And the crazy thing is he just had it down year, the second year because he got hurt. But if it wasn't for that, it would have been 30 as well. So his career average would have been even higher, bro.
Jeff Teague
He went to 37 his third year, bro. 35 is fourth year down year. That's kind of hard.
DJ Wills
Yeah.
Brian
35 this year.
Mook
I see why people go back and forth with who the best.
Jeff Teague
32 the next year. All right, 33 the next 31. 30, 32. Yeah. I don't know. Then he got bored for three years.
DJ Wills
And they came back at average 22 with the Wizards.
Jeff Teague
Now we're talking about after the 32. He retired and then came back average 25 and 30.
DJ Wills
Oh, my retirement. Because that little. You know what I'm saying? That was just weird the way he came back with the Wizards. Yeah, bro. I'm still averaging 22, bro. I'm 40.
Mook
Jesus.
Brian
Yeah, he a different, different breed, bro.
DJ Wills
Oh, no, I believe it, bro. I'm sure the MJ could average 45, bro.
Brian
I do too.
Jeff Teague
Averaging 22 at 40. I don't know though, because Brian averaged what, 26? 26. Yeah, yeah.
Mook
He had different special.
Brian
Jordan quit and came back and did it. Brian ain't stopped.
Jeff Teague
Yeah, that's different.
Brian
Take a couple years off and then.
Mook
Be like, you couldn't go play another sport. It's nuts. They said, oh, this still sad. I'm about to pull back up.
Jeff Teague
Cause he got some fire with the highlight, like the two hand.
DJ Wills
That's crazy, bro. You're not supposed to be doing that at 40, bro. Yeah, listen, I understand why they go.
Brian
Back and forth for sure.
DJ Wills
All right, we the super chat. All right. Call me. Rose says, yeah, I think the best college football team could beat the worst NFL team. Same with college basketball. The. I think the worst NBA team, never. No, sir.
Jeff Teague
The people on that worst college. The people on that worst NFL team were the best players in college and.
Mook
All Americans probably throughout their life.
Jeff Teague
Same with the NBA, bro.
DJ Wills
You can put the SEC All Stars together, bro, and the Jacksonville Jaguars will beat the sleeves off them.
Jeff Teague
You damn near could take anybody from the NBA and put them on a college team if they got like four plus years in the NBA and they can lead that college team to the final four.
Brian
It depends on what team, though. They need some pieces around them.
Jeff Teague
Nah, you put an NBA player, one player. Yes, bro.
Brian
Because there's some people from that college next year they're gonna go to NBA. They might be better than somebody in the NBA. So you can't say that.
Jeff Teague
Nah, not four years. Yo.
Brian
So rookie year, I'll be better than somebody this year in the league.
Jeff Teague
Yeah. But now somebody four years in, you.
Brian
Have to give a name, some type of help, though, because they just double.
Mook
You have to give it.
Jeff Teague
Now, I'm saying if I want a terrible team, I'm saying you. If you take me.
Mook
I don't want to say nobody name.
Brian
Me, stop being Duke next year.
Jeff Teague
You take me four years when I was in my fourth year in the NBA. Yeah, you take crazy and you sent me to Wake Forest and we played Duke. We're going to blow Duke out, which is what they.
Brian
With 18 right now.
Jeff Teague
Yeah. In my fourth.
DJ Wills
Yeah, I would.
Brian
You gonna have. You're gonna be out there.
Jeff Teague
I would manipulate the game so much.
Brian
On the people that ain't hitting shots and all that.
Jeff Teague
No, because I don't matter. I'm gonna get to the free throw line so much. I'm gonna manipulate the game so much. Think about what you did while you were in college.
Brian
It's gonna be tough. You gonna kill. But I'm just saying to be Duke by yourself, that was.
Jeff Teague
No, I'm telling you, you damn near beat Duke when you in college.
Brian
Yeah, but you so other top picks and all that.
Jeff Teague
Yeah, but you act like they still ain't gonna. They still gonna have some players. Like these still go to Wake Forest.
Brian
You can still make a layup matters.
Jeff Teague
I mean, like if you.
Brian
That.
Mook
That school matters.
DJ Wills
I'm gonna tell you what icdc, it's.
Jeff Teague
The reason I'm saying is because when Chris Paul came back to play us, yeah, we were good. And he would destroy us. Like, but who was he hooping with? He would have the walk ons. He would be having Lepore and. But Bobby Hoekstra and hey. And then he'll get mad and be like, all right. And he'll just manipulate the game. Set the screen right here. Move right there. Go right there.
Brian
You could do that.
DJ Wills
Yeah.
Jeff Teague
In your fourth year. That's like your prime. Like, that's when not your problem. But you like better than you going.
Mook
Oh, you're gonna be way better to say it's still basketball, bro.
Jeff Teague
Yeah.
Mook
I'm saying players around you. This ain't like.
Jeff Teague
We ain't saying no players. I'm saying if you.
Mook
I'm saying those players around you are going to have to perform still, bro.
Jeff Teague
Well, most of.
Mook
No what you do.
Jeff Teague
Most of the people in their fourth. Most of the people in the NBA went to pretty decent colleges. I'm saying they go back to their respective school.
Mook
No, you go back to your respective school. I'm just saying, like, a lot of people that killed in college didn't win in college. KD didn't win. They was local.
Jeff Teague
Yeah, but if you would have took KD after his fourth year in college and put him back in Texas.
DJ Wills
Texas.
Brian
He would have got done.
Jeff Teague
Texas is going to the final four blindfolded. Like what?
Brian
Like Bron.
Mook
But I'm saying it was hard for people to win.
DJ Wills
He not saying that.
Brian
He said after four years of NBA.
DJ Wills
Like Steph went back to Davidson after four years.
Jeff Teague
Four year.
Brian
That's gonna be. That's different though, bro.
Mook
What kd if Steph go back to Davis and they're not winning the national.
Jeff Teague
They almost won the title when he was there.
Brian
Steph, after four years in NBA go back to they g. They have a.
Jeff Teague
Chance.
Mook
To say it's automatic.
Jeff Teague
Yes, bro. It's automatic, bro.
Brian
But it's crazy.
DJ Wills
Let me. Let me put this in perspective. If Gordon had go back to Butler after.
Jeff Teague
After four years he's going. He's going to kill.
Brian
He going to dominate with that team.
DJ Wills
What are you doing?
Mook
They was, they.
Jeff Teague
They went back to back. So they wasn't trash. Matt Howard, my dog.
Mook
Come on now. Y' all laid on the wagon. I was a real supporter. I'm talking about put him on the current team.
Jeff Teague
Yeah.
Mook
Four years, bro. Four years later, after Chevron left, they're not winning the national championship.
Jeff Teague
This current team lasted naked to the final four. If he can leave right now. If he can, yeah.
Brian
His bullet team.
DJ Wills
Right.
Mook
But if Gordon go back to four years later on that brother team and win a national title, bro.
Jeff Teague
I said make it to the final four.
Mook
If he even makes it a final four with that goddamn team.
Brian
Which was.
Mook
He deserves 500 million. He go back to the NBA.
Jeff Teague
He could though.
Mook
He already was me, bro.
Jeff Teague
Bro. They still Hoopers bro.
Mook
But you so basketball.
Jeff Teague
You're so much better than a college player after your four. I'm not saying you're gonna look. You gonna look crazy. And all you gotta do is be. All you need is one crazy dominant player. Go look at Oklahoma when they had Trey Young. You don't know nobody else on that team. And I think Austin Reeves might have been there. I don't even know. But you don't remember cuz Trey young was averaging 27 and 12.
Brian
Yeah.
Mook
He led in scoring and assists.
Jeff Teague
They was winning. I mean they was cool.
DJ Wills
They got spooky. They start off real strong.
Mook
Got spooky, lost 1012 games, bro.
Jeff Teague
That's cool. That was 18 year old Trey Young. You take four years later Trey Young and put him on that same exact team, bro. He probably gonna average 35 and 15.
Brian
He is gonna be the best cosplayer.
Jeff Teague
And they gonna win actually.
Brian
But I don't know if they gonna end.
Jeff Teague
He gonna win, bro.
DJ Wills
We got right for that.
Jeff Teague
We go.
DJ Wills
Good question.
Mook
I like that. I ain't mad at that for sure.
DJ Wills
All right. Josh Bell says morning. Love him. Okay. See can I write these order Season MVP alone Russ. MVP Shay the Chip Kyrie MVP Harden breakout season job. That's a lot to all blend together, man.
Jeff Teague
We just. Good job man.
DJ Wills
That's a lot. But shout out to everybody went crazy. MVP Shay can't be mad at it. MVP Harden was crazy. Chip Kyrie crazy. They all greats for sure.
Brian
MVP hard though.
DJ Wills
MVP Harden A thousand percent for me. Harden. I'm going MVP straight man.
Brian
Jack's hard stats was they would but.
DJ Wills
I got MVP and Fonzie and I was in Houston and I let the league.
Jeff Teague
All things considered.
DJ Wills
You're right. Behead. Little Drew 77 says I'm riding pause with my boy Jeff's take on yesterday NFL segment. Anytime he has a take, he tends to be right in the end. Like the Celtics, Ohio state winning the championship. Or like how they being a superstar.
Jeff Teague

DJ Wills

I never said there's nothing wrong with y' all lighting candles. I just said, who lights candles in the middle of the day, bro? Like, unless, like, I ain't never seen that, bro on me. Oh, me? You might as well do that. You might as well kill yourself.
DJ Wills
If you're out here boiling the fact you want to slow your house, you qualify for the lawsuit for sure.

Sarah Spain
The U.S. open is here. And on my podcast Good Game with Sarah Spain, I'm breaking down the players from rising stars to legends chasing history. The predictions will we see a first time winner and the pressure. Billie Jean King says pressure is a privilege. You know. Plus the stories and events off the court. And of course the Honey Deuces, the signature cocktail of the U.S. open. The U.S. open has gotten to be a very fancy, wonderfully experiential sporting event.

I'm Jake Hofer and this is Back 40, a limited series show on Wire to Hunt, part of Meat Eaters Podcast Network. Each episode I'll be asking eight whitetail hunting pros a focused, thought provoking question about hunting and land management. How do I hunt the best part of the farm with less than ideal access?
DJ Wills
Should you? That's what the the real question is, Stan. Without good access is not a good stand.

Jeff Teague
There we go. Oh, my God, bro.
DJ Wills
They literally have candles. Candles that smell like your cologne.
Jeff Teague
I'm not saying they don't, but I'm not walking around with a candle like this, but I'm going to the club.
Mook
But see, that's what I'm saying, bro. You. You're right, bro. Cause nobody's just walking around with candles. It doesn't have to be an intimate setting for you to have a candle in a building, a place, or anywhere, bro.
Jeff Teague
It's usually in an intimate place, bro.
Mook
Like you can have candles in a barber shop, bro.
Jeff Teague
That's usually. That's usually a pretty intimate setting when you get your hair cut. And I'm not saying you're doing intimate things, but when you say intimate, it's like a close. It's gonna be a small place. I'm just saying shout out to the Dominicans, man. It's gonna be a cool environment.
DJ Wills
It's gonna be bunch of candles in there, man.
Jeff Teague
A lot of. A lot of people just ain't letting random in your barbershop unless you got one of them wild barbershops. Y' all don't go to that.
Mook

Jeff Teague

Jeff Teague
He's like this a big cat. You know how you go to the. You go to the thing that give you those sheets and you shirt hurry. Yeah. I was like this weird. Hello.
Mook

Jeff Teague
I'm in shape. I'm in shape, bro. I'm in shape, bro.
DJ Wills

Jeff Teague
I'm in shape, bro. I'm in shape, bro. I'm in shape. All right, well, you're good. Hang over your draw. You can't do that. I'm in shape. I'm in shape, bro. I'm in shape. When you build like a sucker the other way, you struggle. You know what I'm saying, bro? All right, who got a better first signature shoe, LeBron or Melon?
DJ Wills
For sure. The 5.5 aside, I'm going with Zoom Generations every time, for sure. All right, Courtney, Super Chat said be him. Which date would you rather Third wheel Zion and Double M had? Red Lobster or Travis at Panera?
Mook
Travis Hunter, bro.
Jeff Teague
For sure.
DJ Wills
Great question. Molly m says, what's happening 520 sa him. Who's your favorite version of future? Pre2015 future or post 2015 future?
Mook
That's tough, bro. Probably pre. Pre 2015.
DJ Wills
All right. All right, Hector. Cologne says. Good morning, fellas. With all the injuries in the east, would this be the Knicks last best chance to at least make the Finals and be him with you 100% or being a Jeter a rod in New York? Yes. I. I grabbed. See how y' all feel about it. If the Knicks don't make it this year, they gotta blow the team up.
Brian
The next year doing nothing, bro. Nothing. Blow it up.
Mook
That's a lot of money being spit.
Jeff Teague
They gotta win this year.
DJ Wills
No excuses, too. You got two of the best teams that you was gonna go against down.
Mook
Oh, yeah. They ain't gonna win the. I don't.
DJ Wills
They gotta get to the Finals, though, bro. It's.
Brian
Y' all know what the New York.
Mook
No gonna be doing if they win a chip, bro.
Brian
I'm seeing that, bro.
Mook
I'm with that, but I'm just saying I don't feel like they gonna blow them up if they win a chip. I mean, if they don't win, though.
Brian
They have to, bro.
DJ Wills
They have to, bro.
Brian
Tibbs already went now. It's gonna be some players.
DJ Wills
Something gotta change, bro. If three years in a row, y' all come up short, y' all keep adding people every single year, and your conference is getting weaker and weaker each year. Y' all still ain't getting it done. It's y'. All.
Brian
The coach go first. That's gonna be the players, bro.
DJ Wills
All right, we'll see. Quest and Super Chat says, love the pod. Jeff and Mook, the NFL, mlb, NBA dudes. Kids together in the city or just did their own thing. Giant ever league up with some people in other leagues in y' all city.
Jeff Teague
I used to kick it with some of the Falcon players here and there. None really, though.
DJ Wills
Looks like he wouldn't rock with the Bears players. He was outside. All right. Lindell in the Super Chat says what's good, man. Love the podcast, jt. This is from yesterday, but it takes hand speed and lower leg power to hit a home run. Appreciate y'.
Jeff Teague
All. Yeah. Oh, yeah. That's crazy. I. I ain't got no home run in me at all.
DJ Wills
Yeah. All right. Vincent Gutierrez and Super Chat says Teague are other teams tap in with their artists. I feel like ATL Sports are always tapped in with rappers. Did you see the same with other teams?
Jeff Teague
I think that's more or less the.
DJ Wills
Culture of the city. Yeah, for sure.
Jeff Teague
It depends what city you and. I'm sure Chicago people probably tapped in with the Chicago rappers, and Detroit probably tapped in with Detroit rappers, But I don't really know too many other cities that got fire music like that. I mean, I think Nipsey was at a lot of the LA games and stuff like that when he was alive.
Brian
Like a lot of rappers at that.
Mook
Yeah, that's definitely big markets.
Brian
Detroit got a lot of rappers.
Mook
Florida like that.
DJ Wills
But ACL was just such a special time because, you know what I'm saying, y' all was going crazy. But everybody in Atlanta was pulling up at that time period. You still had the legends. You were still on a run as well. It was just a different time. I don't think that could ever be.
Jeff Teague
Recalled, like, since the last. For 20 years, Atlanta been like the hood for music, so you had no choice but to rock with it. Yeah, like, that was the vibe thing.
Mook
You listen to no matter what city.
Jeff Teague
Yeah, the Hip Hop Awards was there at that time.
Brian
He live in Atlanta in a crazy time.
Jeff Teague
Yeah, it was. It was crazy. We went through all that futuristic stuff. Then we went through.
Mook
Right after the Meech.
DJ Wills
Then it was Migos era. Like, you had a lot of transition to see when crazy, man.
Jeff Teague
It was. It was a great time.
DJ Wills
All right, Charm City. Says T. Who was your toughest matchup during your time in the acc? Smith, Tyrese Rice, Todd Lawson or Step Back Jack.
Jeff Teague
All them. Tyrese Rice was cold. But I used to. I used to have good games against them. Nolan Smith always had good games against him. Todd Lawson. Good games. Only. One that really killed me was Jack McClintock.
DJ Wills
He killed Miami.
Jeff Teague
And people probably don't really know Jack McClain because they probably know him now of his fashion and all the stuff he do off the court. Yeah, but on the court, he used to get buckets, bro.
Brian
Tap into his mixtape. He's an original step back.
Jeff Teague
Yeah, he was the first one with the step back, but he had a good run against us.
DJ Wills
Step back, Jack. That's a hell of a nickname. All right, Aaron Carter. Super chat says if Russ goes to the Pacers, doesn't he bring with Holly with more confidence of rebounding? Russ and Nemhard and tj, it can be spooky.
Jeff Teague
No, I mean, I ain't putting it against him. I just don't think.
Mook
It's not a bad.
Brian
It ain't gonna be the same, but he similar, bro.
Mook
Y' all get him here. It's. It's a good team.
Jeff Teague
I don't think so.
Brian
He ain't as past friendly as Halliburton, but he do a lot of the same.
Mook
They not gonna be looking like a tanking, tanking team.
DJ Wills
And that's going to be my problem.
Jeff Teague
Yeah.
Brian
Because they're not gonna win, too.
Mook
Yeah, that's what I'm saying.
Jeff Teague
I don't want to see Russell Westbrook in a Pace uniform. Not at this stage. Like, they not about to win nothing.
DJ Wills
Go content, bro.
Brian
I get it. Go.
DJ Wills
Yeah, we talked about him with the Kings yesterday. I mean, if that's what you want, respect. But I want to see Russ in a situation.
Brian
He just want to hoop, bro. He like, somebody pick me up so I can hoop, bro.
Mook
Yeah, if you go to the Kings, you definitely love.
Jeff Teague
Do you think people not picking him up, or do you think he just not taking no offers now, or do you think he got offer? Like. I don't know.
DJ Wills
I think it's a combination of taking his time and also seeing what type of money that's kind of move around.
Mook
But I don't even think care about the money. I think he want to choose somewhere where he want to go.
Brian
I think he wants to play basketball. He don't want to be, like, on some other leader role. He want hope still, bro. He be one.
Jeff Teague
Okay. I was just wondering, because it's kind of this damn near late.
Brian
That's why he looking at.
Mook
Right.
Jeff Teague
Like the Kings, though.
Brian
He wants to hold, bro.
Mook
Yeah, he wanted. That's a hell of a. From go from Denver to the Kings. Now you love the game.
Jeff Teague
You know where you need to go for real.
Brian
Where?
Jeff Teague
Toronto.
Brian
That wouldn't be bad. That'll give him that little extra push. They might need to do something.
Jeff Teague
Yo, you banking on Emmanuel quickly, and I like Emmanuel quickly, but you need Somebody who kind of got like a dominant personality.
Mook
Yeah.
Jeff Teague
That everybody loved, though. All his teammates love Russell Westbrook 100%. So I think he'd be a good guy.
Brian
He'll turn them up. He'll turn some people up on that team.
Jeff Teague
Yeah.
DJ Wills
Like.
Jeff Teague
Yeah, Yeah, I think that'd be good for him.
DJ Wills
Good question, Fernando. And the super chat says, good morning from San Antonio. Did you have to fire Texas Hat? Ready to see Texas smash Ohio State? What do y' all think all the around Archie Manning?
Jeff Teague
Well, yeah. Yeah. Crazy. Y' all think Ohio about to lose.
DJ Wills
To them number one Texas man, Arch Manning time. They said they gotta see it. They tired of the hype. They want to see the product.
Mook
You know, I think he gonna kill.
Jeff Teague
It's a lot of gas on that Manning name, man. Damn. Yeah, yeah.
DJ Wills
We know how you feel about the Manning family.
Jeff Teague
We had a debate on a pod last night.
Brian
All they did was win.
DJ Wills
He was disrespecting Pete Martin.
Brian
All they didn't do. I mean all of them, though. Eli the daddy the.
Jeff Teague
I ain't disrespecting. I ain't disrespect that game. I'm just saying that I thought Aaron Rodgers was more talented than Peyton Manning. I don't think he.
Brian
I don't know about that.
Jeff Teague
Y' all know, like, talent like Mike Beasley is more talented than a lot of players, but he's not a better basketball player than people they don't see.
Brian
To me, I get what you're saying, but that don't make sense to me, bro. If you so talented, then why you not better than me?
Jeff Teague
Because I'm a crash out. Crash out.
Brian
This other crash.
Jeff Teague
You were more talented than me.
Brian
It's other crash.
Jeff Teague
You want a better player than me.
Brian
I ain't gonna say nobody better.
Jeff Teague
See, I'm just being real. You were more talented than me. We just want a better basketball player than me. The numbers will say that.
Brian
I mean. Yeah, but. So then I can't say I'm more talented than you.
Jeff Teague
You are, though. You did more things. You were more giftingly talented. Me at things you could do. You can jump half higher than me. He was faster than me. You can do things I couldn't do. You can dunk off your right leg. Dunk off your left leg. I couldn't do that.
Brian
Athletic ability. I feel like whoever the better is they more talented, Bro, why am I better than you, bro?
Jeff Teague
That's true.
DJ Wills
I could do.
Jeff Teague
I could do. I could do things better. I might be a smarter player than you. I Might. I might get down instead of running over somebody. I might slide.
Mook
I might make an argument though, why Aaron Rodgers is just better.
Jeff Teague
I didn't say he was. He was more talented. I'm not saying you're better. If you go look how he threw the ball. His arm strength, his accuracy, the way he threw the ball, his ability to get outside the pocket. He moved better than Peyton. Peyton was just a better player. He. He didn't have cerebral.
DJ Wills
Yeah, he wasn't going out of pocket.
Brian
Peyton's smarter than him.
Jeff Teague
Yeah, that's Tom Brady. Tom Brady wasn't more skilled than. He wasn't a better. He wasn't more talented than paying many. Tom Brady wasn't. But he's better than paying many. Right.
DJ Wills
Tomorrow.
Jeff Teague
I'm just saying he was the most talented out of all three of them. I think if you listen to people talk about it, you'll hear him say it.
Brian
I mean, yeah, he could throw the ball. Yeah, he's talented.
Jeff Teague
His talent was unmatched. He just didn't. Wasn't better than those.
DJ Wills
I'm just a go for sure. Listen, tap into Patreon, man. Dope episode bizarre. We had some fun talking about football in there for sure. All right, Senator 1021 says Russ or D. Rose Harden or AI Vince boy. Damn. We'll pick one of those. Rock with you, Ken Folk. Damn, boy. Lamarcus Alders Boogie or indeed I'm going D. Rose going Harden going Vince going Blake.
Jeff Teague
Answer all those.
DJ Wills
And I'm going big. All right. Jay Cutler.
Jeff Teague
Man, give us some dogs. Going to prison.
DJ Wills
Yeah, man.
Jeff Teague
For what?
Mook
From the Bears?
DJ Wills
Yeah, man, just.
Jeff Teague

DJ Wills

Yeah, but he was in the accident and he offered the driver and Sharper said never mind and call the police. Anyway. He got four days. Four days, they said, why did you offer two bands and you a millionaire, bro. You could up the skull.

Episode: 520 in the Morning – Are the Warriors TOO OLD to Win? Plus: NBA, NFL, Wild Stories & More
Date: August 28, 2025
Hosts: Jeff Teague, DJ Wills, Mook, Bishop B Henn, Brian
This episode of Club 520 brings the usual fun, barbershop-style sports conversation, as NBA vet Jeff Teague and the crew break down whether the Golden State Warriors are too old to contend, riff on NBA and NFL debates, drop hilarious personal anecdotes, run through audience Super Chats, and get unfiltered about everything from the WNBA to video games and candles(!). The pod jumps between sports analysis, locker room stories, nostalgic memories, and just straight clowning each other.
(08:13 – 11:08)
The main sports debate focuses on the Warriors’ 2025 title chances after adding Jimmy Butler but with most stars over age 35.
The hosts are skeptical Golden State can truly contend for a title with this aging core unless they add frontcourt help.
(11:57 onward, various)
(30:33 – 34:03)
Reactions to Ty Lue saying MJ would average 45 PPG today:
MJ would drop crazy numbers in today’s game, likely over 40 points per game.
(34:24)
(43:13, 45:15, 46:58)
(66:12 – 69:06)
On the Warriors’ aging:
“Jimmy playing the four, all that small stuff... With OKC having Chet at the four, or whoever they want to play at the five—just too many options.” — Jeff Teague (09:56)
On MJ today:
“He never cared about being top in assist... for him to average 37 and 6, them was some fire numbers, bro.” — Mook (31:41)
Debating talent vs. greatness:
“Mike Beasley is more talented than a lot of players, but he’s not a better basketball player… Numbers will say that.” — Jeff Teague (62:09)
On candle etiquette:
“You can take cologne to the gym, spray that anywhere. You don’t just light a candle in the gym.” — Jeff Teague (47:16)

This episode is classic Club 520 — sharp NBA analysis (with the inside-player perspective), wild humor, sports nostalgia, and a ton of audience interaction. If you missed it, you’ll feel like you’re right there at the table with the crew, getting both serious hoops breakdowns and unfiltered fun.
