Okay? Have you heard about this? Last year, Degree changed the formula for their Cool Rush deodorant. The fans rebelled and wanted the old scent back and Degree listened and that doesn't happen often. They admitted they effed up and are bringing the original Cool Rush scent back. And it's exactly how you remember it. Cool, crisp and fresh. There's a reason why it's the number one men's antiperspirant and it's back in Walmart, Target and other stores now for under $4. You so try it and see what the fuss is about. Head to your local Walmart, Target and try to og Cool Rush for yourself.

One of the ones who was trying to keep me wet.
Host 2
That's that after the pink slip yesterday. He locked into you.
Host 1
Yeah, yeah, he gets that too, right? He was here on time today.
Host 3
I came with doordash barbecue. Heaven is on.
Host 2
Hey, you know how mad you'll be you pulling somebody barbecue the doordash pull up with you. Oh, God. For sure. Man. Crazy basketball that took place over the weekend. But first things first. All NBA teams were finally announced. NBA. We would love a schedule. When y' all gonna announce this? But I guess we're not gonna get that. But let's get straight to it. Thirteen. First and foremost, K. Cunningham. Okay. All NBA, as we suggested. Cat third team. He should have been first team the way he played last night. Tyree Tyler Burg in that third team slot as well. Salute. J Dub. Jalen Williams. And last, but certainly not least, James Harden. How y' all feel about that?
Host 1
I'm very shocked that Jaden Williams, Jalen Williams and James Harden made it.
Guest 1
Especially James Harden. I did not see that.
Host 1
I didn't either shout out to him though.
Host 3
He had a good year.
Guest 1
Yeah, but I ain't see him making an all NBA.
Host 1
Yeah, I didn't either.
Host 2
Can we got a his stats, Mike, please not sorry. James Harden, please.
Host 1
Who?
Host 2
He had a crazy year.
Host 1
Yeah, that's what I was trying to think of. He did have a good year, but I'm just trying.
Host 2
22, 6 and 9.
Host 3
We just used to him having 30 and 11.
Guest 1
True.
Host 1
I was just more surprised. I'm sure somebody else that probably could have made it that like.
Host 2
Shangun didn't get it. Okay, that might be.
Host 1
I'm surprised. Trey Young. No, I'm just playing.
Guest 1
Yes, he did.
Host 2
You know, Trey Young did not get no NBA awards ever.
Host 3
That's who's on the list. I'm okay.
Host 1
Yeah, I'm fine too. Pascal could have made it, but I'm.
Guest 1
Cool with James, bro. What? Pass guy average 19.
Host 1
20.
Host 2
Yeah, 20. I mean, he did get the all star nod, so I mean, I ain't mad at that, but now, I mean, has some votes.
Host 1
That's cool. I'll take James Harden for 13 shout out to James, too. With year 17, 16, whatever year it is for him, he's still trucking along 2369.
Host 2
A team that did very well this year. Shout out to the Clippers. Go to the second team. All right. This one. Shit. Get Tricky AE, LeBron James, S. Dot Curry, Evan Mobley, and Jalen Brunson.
Host 1
I don't like it. I don't like that Steph was shots of step 09, draft him and James Harden. But I think Cade Cunningham should have been second team over Steph Curry.
Host 3
Facts. That's a fact. I agree on everything.
Host 1
Cade Cunningham had better stats. I think he. I think he had a better year than Stephen.
Host 3
He did.
Host 2
And that's Steph Curry, by the way.
Guest 1
He got a spot too, bro.
Host 2
Yeah. Cade had what, 26, nine and six.
Host 1
Yeah.
Host 2
On the team. That ain't meant to. You know what I'm saying?
Host 1
He was 24.
Host 2
Meaningful basketball. Wow.
Host 1
Still quality basketball for Steph, but I think he probably was 13.
Guest 1
Yeah. Swap that out.
Host 2
Yeah. To be fair, they did go on a crazy ass run though, too, once they got Jimmy, you know what I'm saying? They had a up and down year for sure. But I ain't mad at you on that. I ain't mad at you. I think he definitely could have been second team.
Host 1
Yeah.
Host 2
Now here, Jalen Brunson, I know we was going back and forth between him and Donovan Mitchell, who's gonna get that first team slot. Y' all surprised by this?
Host 1
Nah, I'm not mad that Donovan Mitchell got first team, but Jonathan Brunson had a hell of a year.
Host 2
Yeah. I don't like the people putting the stats in the conversation. Cause, I mean, obviously JB stats gonna be better because the Cavs is whooping ass all year, so he played less minutes. For sure.
Host 1
He did.
Guest 1
All we can go off is the stats, bro. We got to go off the stats.
Host 1
But he didn't play a lot of fourth quarter, so.
Guest 1
Numbers. We got to go off the numbers.
Host 2
I mean, it's. It's not that far off. Like if it was like 20 and then 26. I mean, Donovan was averaging 24. Yeah. Two points less. My team won way more games than y' all. I ain't mad at it.
Guest 1
N. Cuz of the. The wins. I get that.
Host 1
Yeah. I take Donovan Mitchell on first team for sure.
Host 2
Sure, man. That's a solid squad as well. And last, but certainly not least, y' all, Giannis sga. Mvp, of course. Joker. Best player in the NBA. JT Donovan Mitchell, first team.
Host 1
I'm surprised that Evan Mobley made it though second team. That's kind of. He had a good year. Defensive player of the year. Second team out NBA at 18.
Host 2
That's tough.
Guest 1
DPO. Y gonna put you through there, bro.
Host 1
That's tough.
Host 2
No hate aside. Cause the child team had a hell of a year. But nineteen and nine for second team.
Host 1
Yeah.
Host 3
Mobley just in general. Evan Mobley or Bam to buy you.
Guest 1
Like me Evan Mobley right now.
Host 3
Who y' all picking up?
Host 2
Oh, give me Bam all day.
Guest 1
Give me Mobley right?
Host 1
If I'm sa. What's the boy name? Al.
Host 2
Yeah.
Host 1
I'm pissed. Like, go look, check his stats out what he average. Cuz if you made second team. And I ain't make no teams. Like, I don't know. I'm a little.
Host 3
If Mobley made it, my boy Zuback should have been up there.
Host 2
If he would have got damn near bro if he started hooping later in the season. I think so. Because he's on that list too.
Host 1
It just didn't make it 19 and 10. I'm a little upset.
Guest 1
Like that ain't even a joke.
Host 1
Jaren Jackson Average 22. 5. I'm upset if I'm Jared Jackson.
Host 2
Hey, Jared Jackson went from DPOI candidates to second team. That's. That's cheating.
Guest 1
He got.
Host 2
He should feel away.
Guest 1
The defensive player of the year boosts him up, bro.
Host 3
Yeah, but Jared Jackson got point guards.
Guest 1
He's a player of the year, bro.
Host 1
Jared Jackson the only average five rebounds.
Host 3
He got point guard stash. That got Louis will sn. That's what l will average. He's 17.
Host 1
That only average five boards. Crazy.
Host 3
We love you, Triple J.
Host 2
But come on, it's Indiana. But that is nasty.
Host 1
I'm pissed for him right here, though. 19 and 10. The Rockets was number two.
Guest 1
That's the same thing.
Host 1
But I made nothing.
Guest 1
And I got defensive player of the year.
Host 1
But I made nothing, though.
Host 3
But I made nothing is said this made second team. And I'm not even.
Guest 1
Win defensive player of the year.
Host 1
Yeah, but difference smoke. My team was second in the west too.
Guest 1
My team was 60 wins and I got defensive player year. And I averaged 19 and 10.
Host 1
Yeah, but you got somebody. But you got.
Guest 1
If he didn't get defensive player, he would not be.
Host 1
I'm saying. But you got somebody's own first team. Yeah, you. You got another guard on first team.
Guest 1
What the they got to do with me?
Host 2
I get my award.
Host 1
You wasn't clearly the best player on your team. I was literally the best player on My. I'm saying. But I was literally the best player on my team. We was second in the west, and I didn't get better than you yours.
Guest 1
So.
Host 1
I mean, I was second in the west and I got nothing.
Guest 1
My team is better yours. So we get more people.
Host 3
This is why I hate that winning, bro. People get robbed, bro.
Guest 1
Somebody always.
Host 3
Individually, bro. Individual awards, bro. Evan Mogul should have been third team at best.
Host 1
Yeah, third.
Guest 1
I should have been, bro.
Host 2
Y' all speak how Cat should be second team.
Guest 1
Matters a lot.
Host 2
Yeah.
Host 1
Cat should be second team.
Guest 1
If Cat was second team, I wouldn't be mad.
Host 1
Cat's supposed to be second thing.
Host 2
Look at this. 25. I wouldn't be mad. What he played last night. He should have been the MVP. So I'm not even mad.
Host 3
So 18 and nine. And the defensive player of the year award is better than this.
Host 2
25 and 13, 60 wins.
Guest 1
Yes.
Host 1
No, bro.
Host 2
How y' all feel about Brian second team?
Guest 1
I'm nothing.
Host 1
I'm supposed to be third, too.
Guest 1
Yeah.
Host 3
Br.
Host 1
Gotta get third. All right. Evan Mobley second and Cat second. Brian gotta go to third, bro.
Host 2
I feel like Cade should have got that second team over Evan Mobley. Respectfully.
Host 1
Yeah.
Host 2
Cause if he's not going by position. But K. Cunningham had a very well.
Host 1
How do you put 24? Seven? Nah, he was third. He was supposed to be on 16.
Host 3
I had a good year, but it's.
Host 2
A down year for Bro. He averaged 24 18.
Host 3
That's what I'm saying. Y' all used to seeing him do different shit.
Ryan Seacrest
He cute.
Host 3
Yeah, he had a good year.
Host 2
Yeah, he did.
Host 1
But Cat's supposed to be on the.
Host 2
Second team for sure. All right, man. We will see in the chat how they feel about this shout out to the NBA awards. Let's get straight to it, man. Knicks with a crazy comeback yesterday. Another 20 point coming back for them yesterday in the bridge, 106 to 100. Cat had 24:15 yesterday, but he had 20 points in the fourth quarter, and he took over that game. Shout out to Cat Brunson had 23 in limited minutes. Tyrese Halliburton had 20 and 7 and Miles Turner had 19 and 4. Now, we talked about the game last night, but now we got a chance, you know what I'm saying, to watch, analyze, stick a little bit more.
Host 3
Miles need some help, bro. Down there.
Host 2
That's all.
Host 1
Pause.
Host 2
He was green. I ain't gonna lie.
Host 3
After what you said.
Host 1
I did. I w out last night.
Host 3
After what you said last night.
Host 1
That was a classic moment for Team.
Host 3
If I turn around, it'll be a class.
Host 1
Why you go? Why you go replay it?
Host 3
Cuz you just pause me. I'm talking hoop.
Host 2

Host 1
Been writing him Stay out the. Stay out the.
Host 3
Shout out to Twitter, bro. Twitter.
Host 2

Host 1
Tally Ben.
Host 2
That's one of the craziest ones.
Host 3
I don't know. Oh, no nickname.
Guest 1
It's a lot of hard ass nicknames.
Host 2
Yeah, for sure.
Guest 1
The truth is hard bro.
Host 3

Host 2

Host 3
Brittany Griner.

Host 2
All right, let's go through. Let's go.
Host 1

Host 2
Okay. King James. Magic.

Host 3

Host 2
Pistol Peter's Fire.
Guest 1

Host 3
Who the is Mr. Reliable.
Host 2
Yeah, who's that? Tim Hardaway.
Host 3

Host 3

Guest 1

Host 2

That'S okay to look like we don't get his haircut. Daryl Dawkins let this grow to stop.
Host 1

Host 2
Respect to the bird.
Host 1

Host 2
That's crazy.
Host 1
That's crazy.
Host 2
That's crazy. That's crazy.
Host 1
Wow.
Host 2
The retweet is crazy.
Host 1
I said, Paul.
Host 3
Break the game down.
Host 2
Y' all are crazy, man. But Mo, I agree. That's one of the thoughts I thought of yesterday. At some point in the sec. At the fourth quarter. Send a second man. Cat bro. We had to double him. He was dominating us. Brunson wasn't in the game. I would have loved for somebody else to try to beat us yesterday. I know that Mikhail Bridges had a solid game. OG had some clutch shots. But we had no answer for Cat in that fourth, man.
Host 1
No, Cat was unbelievable.
Host 2
Yeah, he dominated that game by himself.
Host 1
The real story of this game was that Tibbs actually let somebody else play Facts.
Host 3
Yeah, I really think that would really turn them niggas up.
Host 1
Yes, bro.
Guest 1
Definitely, bro.
Host 1
They weren't even on the scout reports.
Host 2
We were not prepared to see Landry Shem by any means.
Host 1
I guarantee. When he subbed in, Rick probably was like, what the. He's coming in. He's a shooter. He probably even. Think about it, bro. They don't make subscribers like Tiff.
Guest 1
We banking on tears playing seven people, bro.
Host 3
This team's running back next game.
Host 1
Yeah, he got to.
Host 2
I was gonna ask y' all this question. Did he do that out of necessity because of foul trouble, or did he do that because of strategy? So do y' all think next game because they won, you think he gonna go back to, I'm doing what got me here?
Host 1
Nah.
Host 2
Or he got it just now.
Guest 1
Stubborn, so you never know. I hope he don't do that.
Host 1
But we never. We never thought he wouldn't start Josh Hart. I never in my life thought that.
Guest 1
Got desperate.
Host 2
Hey, desperate. She got wicked, man.
Host 1
It wasn't a good. I mean, it didn't work.
Guest 1
Nah, but he just getting their ass beat. He tried to shake some shit up, though, I'm feeling.
Host 2
But now shout out to the line, right? Landry Shamon gave him quality minutes like we talked last night. Miles McGraw came in and went on to run by himself and kept him in the game in that third quarter.
Guest 1
You got 15 minutes to spare for them, bro. 10 to 15, like, come on, bro. They can play a little bit depending.
Host 3
On when you put them in, though, bro.
Guest 1
I mean, that's when you coach him. Put them in at the right time.
Host 1
I like that. When Jalen Brunson without the ball movement, man, it's like they get quicker shots. I know it's not a team. You want to play fast against the Pacers because they get up and down, and you don't want to get in a running game with them. But, man, when the ball move and other people touch the ball, then if it come back to Brunson hand, and he got to make a play, cool. But when he had a ball and bring it up the whole time, and he trying to manipulate the defense with the switching and all that stuff, I get it. But it just. Look, it ain't it, man. It's too much pressure on him.
Host 2
And like you said, it's not even to change the pace of the game because they're doing in the half court, getting all the movement. They're not even bans the ball fast. Also credit to Harry Niesmith. He just plays really good defense on him. Obviously, Jalen Brunson gonna get 40 because he's that good. But he's refusing every ball screen. He's getting over every screen. So like you said, it's making it harder for them to hunt. And like you said, late in the shot clock, you gotta get a good shot. And if you ain't getting no rhythm. And he used to getting hit too. Every time he shoots, we be letting him score like it ain't no point to give him n ones. You're not gonna stop him. But yeah, the ball in his hands has been beneficial to pace.
Host 1
He gonna get tired. Like, if you doing that every play down, eventually you gonna get tired. I know he still be killing. And they've been working for so long, but these are some physical defenders.
Guest 1
That's our best game plan, bro. Letting him just cook, hold the ball the whole time. We gonna beat them like that. They using everybody and playing like that. It's tough to beat them, bro.
Host 2
Most definitely. Yeah.
Host 1
They got cold people on their team. OG's nice cats. Nice. Mikel Bridges. These dudes are 20 point scores.
Host 2
Yeah. Now, Mikhail Bridges, 6 for 18 yesterday was real tough. I was appreciative of that. But he's still a person who will go on the string and just hit like three minutes in a row.
Host 1
Yeah, yeah. If you let him hoop like you seen when he was in Brooklyn, he can get. He was averaging 25. You give him the ball, let him be himself for a little bit, man, he gonna be all right.
Host 2
And it might save Jalen Brunson. Like, bro, take a quarter off, let somebody else get.
Host 1
I don't know why they don't use Dre. Like, I don't know why they don't use Josh Hart. More like dribble handoffs or like getting Jalen Brunson off the ball. Or like even Cat, he had the ability to bring the basketball up and they can run some delays. Kind of like Denver do with Jokic. Not saying that Cat pass anywhere like Yokic, but Josh Hart can pass. I think if they let Jalen Brunson play off the ball a little bit and just turn into a two guard.
Guest 1
I don't think he comfortable with it. He like to have a ball. He kind of like Luca, bro. A smaller Luca, bro.
Host 1
He is. He is. He baby L time. But I'm just saying, I think it'll make his job so much easier. Like, he'd be so much more dangerous. Like coming off a dribble handoff out the corner and it's some more action, and he coming downhill or doing whatever you got to do, but every time, you know where the ball coming from. I mean, he's still averaging 40. Whatever. Doing whatever you're doing. He's crazy. But to see it every time down.
Guest 1
Yeah. Cause they won last night in that interview. He was. He was kind of mad, bro.
Host 1
Yeah.
Host 2
Them questions I was asking was not like, hey, are you happy about the win? I have to be one in spite of you, basically.
Host 1
Yeah. People sick of watching the shit, like Chuck and them. That's why. That's why I appreciate them. They like, bro, that's terrible basketball, bro. Even though Chuck used to do that when he played, they threw it to him and he backed down the whole game.
Guest 1
I'm watching you and this terrible.
Host 2
He said, hey, bro, I had to deal with Jordan, bro. I still got to the finals.
Host 1
Yeah, but used to do the same thing. They throw you the ball, you back Everybody down for 10 seconds.
Guest 1
It'd be shitty. You if responded to him and said that you did the same thing, bro.
Host 1
It's the truth though, bro.
Host 2
They still bought my shoes, bro. You don't got nothing. They just retro my shoes, bro. Not buying your.
Host 1
But that's what Chuck used to do. But when you watch it, it's like, ah. Oh, hell. You probably see it now. I'm like, that bad basketball. But that's what you used to do.
Host 3
Chuck Pacers up, man. Nixon six now.
Host 2
Here you go, man. We know. I'm saying, gentlemen, sweet. We have not won a Game 3 this entire postseason run. We are on brand.
Guest 1
That's a fact.
Host 2
We gonna take care of business tomorrow at the bridge.
Host 3
Go to bullshit analytics.
Host 2
We'll go back to New York. These are just facts. We have not won a game three this entire posting career.
Guest 1
We haven't won a game three yet.
Host 1
Come on.
Host 2
Yeah. We haven't swept nobody. It's a gentleman sweep. You know what I'm saying? We nice to get you, papow. So it's all good.
Host 1
Shout out to the man who walked up to me at the little spot and was like, yeah, you gonna be at that parade, nigga.
Host 2
I said, talk to him.
Host 1

Host 3

Host 2
And on that note, super chat, Brian. Can't say your last name, but salute. Yo, I have never seen JT happy like last night. After next week, it was about time you got your look back. After all else you took hating on Indy.
Host 1
Damn, I wasn't even hyped.
Host 2
What is he talking about, Brian? Salute to you for the five king.
Host 1
Because you just made that up. I wasn't even hyped.
Host 2
Okay, we appreciate your contribution.
Host 1
I. I didn't want the Knicks to win. I mean, I told you, it's a reverse psychology.
Host 2
All right, man, we got game four tonight, but game three, belt ass situation for sure. In Minnesota, the Wolves took care of OKC 143 to 101. Be here. How you feeling, man? Hey, get 30, junior 24 now.
Host 3
They was dusting them, bro. I mean, it is what it is. I think the. I still think OKC going to pull away, though. Okay, that was a good win.
Host 1
I. I got wolves winning tonight. Y' all ain't want to do no late night podcast when my team win, but it's cool.
Guest 1
No, nobody care about that, jb.
Host 3

Host 3
You know Degree Cool Rush deodorant?
Guest 3
Well, last year they changed the formula, and it did not go well with their fans. Degree's whole thing is it turns up the sweat and odor protection when you turn up the effort. And good thing it does, because Cool Rush fans really turned up the effort to bring back the original formula. One guy even started an online petition, and degree listened. They admitted they effed up and are bringing the original Cool Rush scent back. And it's exactly how you remember it. Cool, crisp, and fresh. It's back in Walmart, Target, and other stores now for under $4. There's a reason why it's been the number one men's Annie purse print for the last decade. It's the same reason why people were not happy when it change. So if you never tried it, it might be a good time to see what the fuss is about. Head to your local Walmart or Target to try the OG degree Cool Rush for yourself.

Okay. Have you heard about this? Last year, Degree changed the formula for their Cool Rush deodorant. The fans rebelled and wanted the old scent back, and Degree listened, and that doesn't happen often. They admitted they effed up and are bringing the original Cool Rush scent back. And it's exactly how you remember it. Cool, crisp, and fresh. There's a reason why it's the number one men's antiperspirant. And it's back in Walmart, Target, and other stores now for under $4. So try it and see what the fuss is about. Head to your local Walmart Target, and try to OG Cool Rush for yourself.
