THE VOLUME.
D.J. Wills
Good morning. Happy Tuesday. It's 5:20 in the morning. Your favorite sports show. I'm your host. My name is D.J. wills. Got a full house this morning. We got Bishop, we got Nacho five twenty mooc. Fellas, good morning. How y'all doing?
Bishop
What's happening brother?
Nacho
What's happening, bro?
Mooc
What up though?
D.J. Wills
Come on, man. The regular season has concluded for sure. We got the 520 awards today, man. We about to have some fun. But first things first, man. Get well soon to coach Bud, man. He got fired yesterday, man. After only one year with the squad. Yep, man.
Bishop
One and done.
D.J. Wills
The real one and done no more. We talked about this about December, January, February, March that there was a possibility with how bad they did, they might fire him. And you called it.
Mooc
Yeah, I knew he was out of there. Go ahead and get on your boat. Think he still live in Milwaukee? Probably bought a house in Arizona, so. Arizona got better weather. Probably stay out in Arizona. I think he from. He from Arizona, actually. So he probably gonna be at the crib chilling. You about to get paid 10 years for the next four years. I mean, 10 mil for the next four years.
D.J. Wills
Yeah. If he don't get another coaching job, he gets 10 M's.
Nacho
Oh, he already said he don't want one.
D.J. Wills
He done.
Nacho
He said, I'm cool. I'm going to chill.
Bishop
That's respect.
Nacho
You good enough immediately, you done enough.
D.J. Wills
Bud fuck with the Nah. And I work with. Hey, don't play with my money, y'all. I ain't in no jobs. No run it. That's hard. Shout out to Coach Bud, man.
Bishop
Side.
Nacho
No. Jeff, don't be lying. He wants to sit on the boat.
Mooc
Yeah, bro. He about to go sit on the boat and chill, bro. He not worried about none of this. I mean, like, I know on here it says that report say he hard to work with. I mean, a lot of people say that. And I play for Coach Bud. He's. He's interesting, you know what I mean? You gotta have a good rapport with him. He was cool with me because I grew up with my pops being kinda like a, you know, drill sergeant kinda, you know what I mean? So him one way wanting you to play a certain way and doing things a certain way. I was used to it, but he came from the pop system, so that's how pop was like.
D.J. Wills
Yeah, system over you every time.
Mooc
Yeah, every single time. And a lot of guys never played in that system. So you got a Devin Booker who played for Earl Watson, who's like an empowering coach, wants you to be yourself. I don't care about wins and losses killed. Then you got Monty Williams, who's like a different coach, who probably was empowering.
Bishop
More of a balance bug come it's.
Mooc
Like, hey, we doing it this way. This way works. If you don't believe in it, fuck you.
Bishop
Yeah, Bud need to go coach college if he gonna coach.
Mooc
Yeah, like, he. He a great NBA mind, but that's his way. Like, we gonna do it this way. I understand, but we gonna do it this way. Yeah, I get you, but nah.
Bishop
It's hard telling a Nigga that making 200 million to pass the ball, bro. Set a screen.
Mooc
Yeah. Or I'm making 25 million a year and you like, this rookie's playing good. We're gonna try to get a rookie a chance. It's like, what? Like he would do that. Like, you seen Shoven Matt? He came on a 10 day and was a nigga. Damn near played 20 minutes a game for us.
Bishop
I can't help my boy get a bag.
Nacho
I feel like that's better, though. He actually coaching, bro. He not just sitting.
Bishop
That's what I'm saying. He should go to college. But it's hard merging those two, bro, when somebody's already making all that kind of money. The ego. I'm a superstar and you telling me to do it for the team.
Nacho
Yeah, and he stamped, bro. He did some.
Bishop
He stamped, bro. But if that's not your vibe, it's.
Mooc
But he got stamped with underman talent. Like, our team was the perfect team for him because we ain't had no superstars. So we had to buy into everything he said just to make our group work. Now you go coach Giannis. All these superstars, they like, hey, man, I'm not about to be coming out for a second round pick facts, bro, because I ain't passed the ball to the corner coach, you could do that with us.
D.J. Wills
Yeah.
Bishop
Cause also, you was just. You know Giannis as the.
Nacho
I don't think he do that with y'all, bro. Jeff would be mad as hell.
D.J. Wills
I was, but he did that.
Bishop
He did it. They won.
Mooc
I ain't had no. Like, Dennis would be subbing in for me. You like, Bro, I only played 25 minutes tonight. He like, okay, we won the game. What are you talking about? Yeah, and you like. But that's the shit Pop would do. Pop would take Tony Parker out for.
Nacho
This long n. Ain't saying nothing to Pop.
Mooc
And he had that same Pop energy, but shit, it's a new day and age. You take Kevin Durant out, KD almost smacked the shit.
D.J. Wills
Yeah.
Bishop
He Bradley Till, Devin Booker. We better do that with Tyler Ewless. And now shout out to Tom. Just say it's different. He's got people.
Mooc
Hall of fam, hall of Fame. Nobody really lit on our team. Nobody made the All Star team yet.
D.J. Wills
No, they just established.
Mooc
Everybody got shoes, man. Come on.
Bishop
So I said college might be the.
D.J. Wills
Best fit now he had. What makes it funny is you said college, bro. You can't tell a 200 million dollar player to take minutes. He told their franchise player to shut up and huddles. I feel you, but shut that shit up.
Bishop
I like it. Since he don't Care.
D.J. Wills
There's no way that's gonna work, bro. He don't care.
Bishop
I get it. But you. It's personnel, bro, not facts.
Mooc
That's what I'm saying. But that's Bud, though. Like, hey, hey, you're doing a lot in the huddles. Like, we don't need. I got it. Swear. I know that's him. That's how he was with us.
Nacho
He said, okay, Bud, we'll be out of here somewhere.
D.J. Wills
Don't be real quiet.
Bishop
You can't grab Bud. Clipboard.
D.J. Wills
Who do you think you are?
Mooc
Like, sit down. I knew that wasn't gonna work, but shout out to Bud. Cause you got a lot of money to sit at the crib now. And that's all you wanted to do anyway, bro. You want to just enjoy your family.
Bishop
That's a way to be yourself and still get paid.
D.J. Wills
The funny part about it is, reportedly he went to Brad Bill saying, I need you to be more like Drew Holiday. Hey, bro, who you talking.
Mooc
I can see that.
Bishop
That's some hilarious, amazing player.
Nacho
I play nothing.
Bishop
That's not my swag.
Mooc
I don't guard.
Bishop
Tell me the Chessbow.
Mooc
I don't guard like that. I don't play in the dunker. I don't do like. That's what I'm saying. He was. I told him he should have went left to Milwaukee and go take the Pacer job. Because the Pacers was a team that didn't have no superstars. They was. They was basically the Hawks. And you could have did whatever you wanted with him.
Bishop
Yep.
Mooc
You could have molded it however you wanted. Everybody had to fall in line. You just won a championship, and you could have molded that team however you wanted.
D.J. Wills
That's a fact.
Mooc
But now you went gone fucking with all these superstars. I told you, he don't do well with a lot of great players, man. I'm living proof.
Nacho
He did it for the bag man.
Mooc
Of course. Why wouldn't he?
D.J. Wills
For sure. Now, it says a lot about the Suns. Third year in a row, they had to change head coaching, which is crazy. And they have not had a consistent coach for over five years since the 87 season. Hey, man, do we. What's up with the Suns? I know they about to blow this entire team up. But at some point, you know, Daniel Jones got a lot of love for getting that team to the finals. What do they do now? Like, how do you rebuild?
Mooc
Go look at the history of the Suns. Before Charles Barkley got there, it was a. That's a wild franchise like y'all. Just get bored one day, Boy, they were selling coke. They was doing all types of shit before Charles Barkley and Kevin Johnson got there.
D.J. Wills
It was a wild.
Nacho
They were selling coke, bro.
Mooc
Man, they had drug busts, man. Go look it up if y'all think I'm lying.
D.J. Wills
Y'all disrespect the Hornets.
Mooc
Look what they was doing.
D.J. Wills
They was really traveling.
Mooc
It's a wild history for Charles Barkley and Kevin Johnson got there. But shout to somebody.
Bishop
Gotta be the bad boys, though.
Mooc
Yeah.
D.J. Wills
But I'm saying this might be just.
Mooc
A trickle down effect from back in the days, like just came.
Bishop
That's why they say the best pack was anyway, was Arizona.
Mooc
Don't believe it.
D.J. Wills
Shout out to the gross.
Mooc
Just be a bad trickle down effect. But I think when they let Monty Williams go in that group, Chris Paul and all them, and they went and traded for Kevin Durant, I think that was the recipe for disaster for Phoenix. Be honest. You let your two young wings go for Kevin Durant, who's a Hall of Fame player, one of the best to ever do it. But y'all had a cool nucleus with the number one pick, deandre A and them two wings, and you basically broke it up for, you know, a championship, a run of the championship that y'all had already made. Yeah, I didn't understand it, but I was good.
D.J. Wills
And people still feel the ways about them getting Aiden that won.
Mooc
Yeah. I mean, they got Luka.
D.J. Wills
Yeah.
Mooc
Who they could have got.
D.J. Wills
They went and got Luka's coach there and everything.
Mooc
Yeah.
Nacho
I mean, but Aiden ain't look like a bad pick. I mean, he wasn't. He not a bad player.
D.J. Wills
He looked like a bad pick at the.
Mooc
He went to the chip. Yeah.
Bishop
Yeah.
D.J. Wills
And his smoke only came when Monty Williams wasn't rocking with him. Cause before that, we had high hopes for him. Obviously, they went to the chip and.
Mooc
They broke up their chip.
D.J. Wills
Shout out to Dallas.
Mooc
Yeah.
Nacho
Yeah. That's they fault, bro.
Mooc
They.
Nacho
They should have kept that together.
Bishop
Yeah.
Mooc
You gave up Cam Johnson, Mikel Bridges for nothing.
Nacho
Add a piece or something and build off that.
Mooc
They gave it up for kd, who about to leave.
Nacho
Yeah. And y'all didn't get nothing out of it. Kd, y'all didn't do nothing.
Mooc
And y'all ain't resigned.
D.J. Wills
CP yeah, like, I just.
Nacho
Yeah, they should have kept cp.
Mooc
That.
Nacho
That team when they had CP and kd and them, they. They was like, ain't no. Though. They just end up trading. They got Bradley Bill. I looked up something on It.
D.J. Wills
Yeah, that's. Get well soon to the Suns for sure. Speaking of making some moves, Pelicans fired David Griffin. So it looked like they wanted to go. Go in a different direction.
Bishop
Now.
Mooc
He was due, man.
D.J. Wills
He's overdue now. What we gonna do now? Is it time to trade Zion?
Mooc
Yeah. Free.
Nacho
Free dz, My boy, man. It's time for him to start being great, bro.
Mooc
Yeah, they need to just revamp that whole thing. Like, I mean, Zion is still a great player, but they need to find like a Cooper Flag on New Orleans. There you go.
Nacho
Damn.
D.J. Wills
Damn. Okay.
Mooc
That's what it's gonna be. Cause the NBA gotta do something to keep New Orleans relevant or they gonna have to move.
Bishop
I'm saying.
Mooc
So they gonna trade Zion this summer? They got to. And then Cooper Flag, they gonna build around Cooper Flag. It gotta be something like that.
Bishop
I like that.
Nacho
I love that for Zion, bro. I wanna see him play some quality basketball, bro.
Mooc
Or unless they got a cause, you gonna move people outta New Orleans. Nobody go to New Orleans.
Bishop
That's true.
D.J. Wills
That's real. You got C.J. mcCollum. You need to move. They just tried to move on from bi, so it's time to.
Nacho
Yeah, move him, too.
D.J. Wills
Free Z, bro. Yeah, man.
Mooc
I mean, you can't. I mean, he plays so well when he plays like. Damn. I hate to give him up, but, shit, he don't play in New Orleans, so.
D.J. Wills
And it's reported that y'all held him out for very reason. So what y'all like to see him at? I know obviously it's off subject, but what's a good team that could use? Obviously them or any team could.
Nacho
But anybody.
Mooc
Atlanta.
D.J. Wills
Yeah, him and Trey Pickerel would be crazy.
Mooc
Yeah. We just need.
Nacho
I don't know though. He might crash out in Atlanta.
Mooc
I mean, he's gonna be filthy.
D.J. Wills
Well, we know he can't go to Dallas.
Bishop
That nigga need 247 security.
Mooc
His off the court antics might be a little vicious.
D.J. Wills
You are Utah Jazz.
Bishop
That's a wild place. You know Zion go for the Juggler. He go for them Pickles, bro. You gotta be careful in the egg, boy. Fuck around, get around with Samuel on.
D.J. Wills
Well, Martin say, look at the sky. Look at the sky.
Mooc
Check that out.
Bishop
Let me see your wings.
Mooc
But he gonna be all right, though. Cause if you go there, it's expected. Kind of like, you know what I mean? Like, you can go to the gentleman's club and be all right in Atlanta.
Bishop
Yeah.
D.J. Wills
Free Zion, man. It's time for me to play some meaningful Basketball for sure, man. All right, man. Couple of season awards is concluded. We'll see how I feel about some of these candidates for most improved. Dyson Daniels, Big Zoo, or Cade Cunningham.
Nacho
Big Zoo, man.
D.J. Wills
Big Zoo.
Bishop
Yeah, I'm going with Zoo, but y'all got my boy fucked up. Nah, Dyson, Dyson, y'all know who didn't make the list.
D.J. Wills
Oh, and Peasy.
Bishop
He didn't play enough game, but I respect the list. It's going for Ivan with me, though.
D.J. Wills
Yeah. If Norman Powell was available, he definitely, probably would be included in that, I think. Yeah. Like you said, the. Unfortunately, he missed too many games. But Dyson Davis needs some love too, man. But I think he gonna get his just due later for sure. Sixth man of the year, Peyton Pritchard. Payton Pritchard, Malik Beasley, Russell Westbrook, Peyton Pitcher.
Bishop
And Malik been killing, y'all.
Nacho
Prichard been killing.
Bishop
He has, though. I agree with y'all.
D.J. Wills
Peyton Pritchard, Malik Beasley, though, definitely went crazy. 300 threes off the bench is tough.
Bishop
He helped him along.
Mooc
How many Payton hit off the bench?
D.J. Wills
I'm sure he hit a lot, but.
Mooc
He probably got three.
D.J. Wills
I know Malik Beasley was number two.
Bishop
Peyton probably got a high, too.
D.J. Wills
Yeah, let's search that for sure.
Nacho
Malik Beasley hit a lot.
Bishop
He would.
D.J. Wills
Yeah. Let's see.
Mooc
It don't matter. Defensive player of the year.
D.J. Wills
Yeah, we'll move on. We'll back to the chat for sure. But y'all rolling with Peyton Pritchard, though. It's his middle of the year. Yeah, I ain't mad at that at all. Contributed at a high level for sure. Clutch player of the year, you got Jalen Brunson, Trey Young or Yolk.
Nacho
Joker.
Mooc
Joker.
Bishop
Yeah. Joker did more with less.
D.J. Wills
Now for the clutches. You know what I'm saying? It's come through. End of the game, I'm saying, like, okay, you going with Joker.
Bishop
It depended on the game. Depending on me from the jump to the end.
Mooc
Yeah, I'm.
Nacho
If I come out, shit, go to I'm clutch dog game every night.
Bishop
That's the only person. I swear to God, I feel like they play every game that we had this show, bro. We talked about YIC all year long, bro. The season is over, y'all.
Nacho
Did he have a bad game this year, bro?
D.J. Wills
I don't know.
Nacho
Every night, bro.
D.J. Wills
Let's go to his season total, please, bro.
Nacho
He kill every night or anything?
D.J. Wills
Yeah, I. I think y might average a triple double, bro, which is scary.
Mooc
Yeah, triple double, bro.
D.J. Wills
That's. That's crazy, bro.
Bishop
30, 12 and 10, bro. And I'm shooting 57. Cause he pull up for a trade, too.
D.J. Wills
And that's the reason why I talk about him every day on this show. Because he'd be hooping.
Bishop
Yeah.
D.J. Wills
Yeah. I ain't mad that I'm clutch. Because I gotta be for sure. Coach of the year.
Nacho
One with Mark, man.
D.J. Wills
Okay, J.B. bickerstad, J.B. bickerstyle.
Bishop
Yeah, I'm taking Kenny.
Mooc
Kenny had a hell of a year, but that was a playoff team last year. He just upped him. He kind of had that Mark Jackson, Steve Kerr effect, I guess. They was a quality team. He came and made them a great team. JB Bickerstaff was handed a piece of shit and turned it into gold. Like, they were ass last year, but.
Nacho
They got some new players this year.
Mooc
They were biased and all them, but they were biased.
Nacho
That's a different tag. Nah, they was terrible.
Mooc
And we had no expectations for Detroit Pistons getting Tobias Harris.
Nacho
Facts.
Mooc
Malik Beasley. We was like, okay.
Bishop
Thompson played out of his body.
Mooc
We was just like everybody that they got, we kind of really. They was written off in the league, if you being honest. Like, nobody was really.
Bishop
Especially Malik Beasley.
Mooc
Yeah, nobody was really checking for Tobias Harris. Like, when he got that deal. We all was like, damn, Tobias know how to get some money. But nobody was excited. Philly was like, oh, yeah, they tricked y'all too. And then Malik Beasley, I ain't gonna lie. Nobody was tricking for him. Tim Hardaway, he.
Nacho
Nobody was checking for none of them.
Mooc
Nah, he wasn't productive in a while, but they got an opportunity.
D.J. Wills
Yeah.
Mooc
JB believed in them. And now they back. And now some of them about to get big deals. Easy.
D.J. Wills
About to get paid on me.
Bishop
That's fire.
D.J. Wills
Solidify the bag for his play at this season. For sure.
Mooc
He about to get paid. I wouldn't be surprised. Tim Hardaway get an extension or something. You know what I mean? Like, they played well for them. So that's my coach of the year. He did a hell of a job getting that group going. Cause nobody expected shit in Detroit.
D.J. Wills
And a lot of people we joked over here how he was talking about ain't no hoodies, none of that durag shit. We're trying to coach Carter them. But it worked. Yeah, he set the tone for sure. Like you said, Kenny Akinson get some love, too. Cause like you said, I did take your old squad, bro, and took him to the next level.
Mooc
Yeah, Facts.
D.J. Wills
But, man, like you said, okc Mook ain't getting no love, man.
Nacho
Hey, we topping the league, bro.
Mooc
They did this last year. When you do it, like, when you do it back to back years, it kind of, you know how it is.
Nacho
You know, I'm a damn good coach. I do it every year.
Mooc
You know how it is.
D.J. Wills
Now I get your fe.
Bishop
Man, that shit is difficult. It's difficult.
Mooc
People don't like consistency. You know that. People hate LeBron. LeBron probably should have been MVP eight years in a row.
D.J. Wills
That's a fact. For sure. Moving on. Rookie of the year, Stefan Castle, Alex Sar Young, Zachary Zach.
Mooc
Nah, I'm lying. It's Stefan Castle.
D.J. Wills
Yeah, man.
Bishop
Yeah, I agree, man.
D.J. Wills
That's pretty easy. Moving on, Dpoy Draymond, Lou Dort, Evan Mobley. And also I'm gonna add in Dyson James.
Mooc
I'm gonna go with Dyson.
Bishop
Yeah.
Mooc
My pick, Dyson.
D.J. Wills
Yeah, bro. What he did with steals this year is crazy.
Mooc
Unbelievable, bro. Unbelievable. He averaged what, damn near three steals.
D.J. Wills
Yeah. Dyson Daniels defensive stats this year are disgusting, bro.
Mooc
That is a jump shot.
Nacho
He gonna be so good.
Mooc
That's all he gotta do is be able to shoot. And the crazy thing, look at his shooting percentage. The N don't really miss that grand.
D.J. Wills
Say he don't.
Mooc
He shoot damner 50% from the field. He just can't shoot threes.
D.J. Wills
Yeah. Demer block a game. Three steals. Yeah. That's crazy. And they show like him deflections and stuff. He's like top three in that three.
Bishop
Steals is crazy, bro. You are out there like crazy shape, bro.
Mooc
I beg with him, boy. It's still gonna be 99.
Bishop
That's a padlock, bro. The storm door.
D.J. Wills
That being his nickname is crazy. The Storm Door.
Bishop
Three steals a game, bro. You playing out of your body, bro.
Mooc
And you get five boards. 14 again.
Bishop
Y'all would die for a player like that. On y'all too.
Mooc
I swear.
Bishop
He just wanted to lock up.
Mooc
If he gets 3 point 14, bro, like 37 and he shoot like four or five a game, like at least five threes a game, he gonna be up.
Nacho
He gonna average 18.
Mooc
He gonna get paid, boy. He get that threes up to like five a game. 37.
Bishop
He gotta get that free throw up. Boy, you shooting like white.
Mooc
He can't shoot at all.
D.J. Wills
Yes, he got them 49%.
Bishop
No smart Dyson, but you probably them Is booms after the steal.
D.J. Wills
Transition buckets. Now you hating on this 14 shot breaking down.
Bishop
I'm rocking. I'm rocking, bro. Anybody get three steals a game? That's on average, probably had six, seven.
D.J. Wills
Yeah, he had a game where he had six, it's like, all right, bro.

D.J. Wills
And we'll save MVP for another time, man. But let's talk about your Hawks, man. What they gotta do tonight to get the dub against the Magic play in.
Mooc
I can't believe we're not watching this game, but.
Bishop
You can flip the channel.
Mooc
They gotta have a. They gotta have a team effort. Young Zach gotta play well, okay? He gotta make shots. He been on a tear lately. He has some 30 point games. But I mean it all start with Trae Young 24 and 11. But Trey, you don't have to be 35 and 10 at night, okay? You got to be dynamic for us to beat them. That's a big team.
Bishop
I got the Hawks tonight.
Mooc
I with that. Yeah, but they playing at Orlando. Trey gonna have to be special.
Nacho
I know, man. Paolo ain't going.
Bishop
Paulo, my guy, man. I roll with the Magic, but I just. I don't know, man. I want to see Trey in the playoffs, bro.
Nacho
Trey show up every time in moments like this, though, so.
Bishop
Yeah, I want to see Trey in the playoffs.
Mooc
You don't have to be special tonight.
D.J. Wills
Yeah, that's the thing about the Magic, boy. When they two stars show up, though, if they show up tonight, it could get ugly.
Bishop
I ain't no fool, bro. I ain't no fool.
D.J. Wills
Fries is pulling up.
Nacho
They will be in the building, bro.
Mooc
Yeah, it's gonna be their defense versus our offense. We can score the ball, but can Dyson make it tough on Paulo?
Nacho
No, I was gonna say he is.
Mooc
But I mean, he gotta guard somebody.
Bishop
He elbow him on top of his head, too.
Mooc
They a big team, Magic.
Nacho
I wish they had Jalen Suggs.
Mooc
Yeah, they'd be. They wouldn't be in this position if they had Suggs.
Bishop
Nah. Right?
D.J. Wills
That's a fact.
Bishop
Ooh. Paulo's a tough man, but I wanna. I'd rather see Trey, though. I like seeing Treyoffs. Yeah. Yeah. Even though he get to it.
D.J. Wills
But yeah, Trey Young is gonna shoot volleyball on threes and disrespect the Doms. Yeah, yeah.
Nacho
And shoot dice in the middle of the garden.
Bishop
Yeah.
D.J. Wills
Ghost, though, but yeah, the magic man, P5, he's different for sure. But I think the one like you said, the Dyson Daniels effect, man, like you said, unfortunately, with Orlando's guards not being the best are all there. So if he can get the freelance a little bit or he get the help on that double, it's gonna get ugly. Yeah, that might be their recipe for.
Mooc
Win, but yeah, it's gonna be tough for Young Zach. I mean, he probably gonna match up against Franz or P5 or whatever. Yeah, you gonna have to throw some doubles.
D.J. Wills
Yeah, he gonna need some help, bro. Yeah, he could get wicked for sure. But like you said, high power offense from one of the best defense in the league. We shall see. Indeed. Grizzlies and warriors tonight. Hey, man, this might be a hell of a game.
Nacho
For some reason, I feel like the Grizzlies might beat them, bro. I don't know why.
Bishop
Yeah, that's why I've been seeing it.
D.J. Wills
As a growing consistence. A lot of people are taking the Grizzlies in the situation like they might.
Nacho
Get them out of here.
Mooc
I'm taking my Grizzlies too.
D.J. Wills
Oh, everybody going. Grizzlies.
Bishop
I got Grizz.
D.J. Wills
Oh, I'm, I'm. I'm Wardell.
Bishop
They on my leg.
Nacho
I get it, but I just feel like, they gonna get them, bro.
Mooc
Yeah, I got the Grizzlies.
D.J. Wills
It's gonna be a hell of a game.
Mooc
They playing at San Fernando.
D.J. Wills
Yeah.
Mooc
Now I got the boys.
D.J. Wills
Yeah. Wardell's at home, bro.
Mooc
I got the warriors game business.
D.J. Wills
That's what I'm playing, though, huh. Yeah. If Memphis was at home, I'd feel differently as well.
Mooc
Yeah, I'm gonna go with the warriors at home.
Bishop
I'm staying. I'm locked in. Let's go, Ja.
D.J. Wills
Okay. For the Grizzlies to win this game.
Mooc
What they gotta do, Stop Wardale?
D.J. Wills
Flat out.
Bishop
Everybody gotta play like Dyson Daniels.
Nacho
Good luck. I hope he. He's missing a night.
Mooc
Yeah, they better. They just gotta pray.
D.J. Wills
He bricking nothing they can do. No double team, no nothing.
Nacho
It's like double team, somebody shooting a half.
Bishop
Why does Jimmy go crazy on these things?
Nacho
He need to.
Mooc
Yeah. The warriors gonna win tonight.
Bishop
He needs Jimmy mess around, go stupid. But I'm sticking with the guns.
D.J. Wills
Okay, now for the Grizzlies. Obviously not. They can't stop them. But what do the warriors have to do to stop the Grizzlies tonight?
Bishop
I don't think. Really? Nothing, bro. Play that game well.
Mooc
Yeah, they just gotta. They gotta make JC bodies. You know, he gonna penetrate into the cup. He been making the three a little more consistent lately. But you cut ja head off like the head of that snake is Ja, you cut him up, he make it tough on Ja.
Nacho
Yeah, I'd rather have him shooting threes, though, even though he's been hitting them.
Mooc
But you cut. You cut that head off on that snake, it's pretty much over with.
Nacho
Yeah, they did without. Without Ja.
D.J. Wills
Okay, now, outside of JA having a good game, who's got to be the person with the grizzest to step up to get them to win?
Nacho
I mean, Jaren, he better play good.
Bishop
Bang.
Nacho
Gonna have to hit some shots. I mean, it's about to be a collective, bro.
D.J. Wills
Okay.
Mooc
Yeah.
Nacho
Y'all gonna need some help.
Bishop
Yeah. Hell, yeah.
D.J. Wills
Yeah, I was thinking Triple J, too. Cause we talk about the warriors lack of size down low.
Nacho
He gonna have to dominate.
Mooc
But Draymond, bro, Draymond gonna x him out. Yeah, you know, that's that. That Spartan Michigan State love. Yeah, he gonna x him out. It's gonna be a rough night for Jaren Jackson, so I ain't worried about him.
D.J. Wills
Okay.
Mooc
It's gotta be D. Bang. He the only one, ja. Obviously, Ja got that I don't give a damn attitude, too, but D. Bane really don't give A he talk crazy to everybody. He trying to score on everybody, and he really don't give a damn.
Nacho
And he nice.
Mooc
Yeah, he nice as shit.
D.J. Wills
Yeah. One of their most consistent players has been the last couple years for sure.
Mooc
Yeah, but can they neutralize Jimmy? I don't think they got nobody for that.
Nacho
Like, who gonna guard him?
D.J. Wills
That's where it get tricky.
Bishop
Yep.
D.J. Wills
Be here. Over. Under. Jaren Jackson rebounds tonight. Plus six. Sub six.
Bishop
He gonna get six, and that's it.
D.J. Wills
Take the under.
Nacho
Please take the under. Don't rebound, bro.
Bishop
He don't, bro. And that. That been irking me for a while, bro, since I know him. But I think he got six inning today. Pause.
Nacho
Oh, that was. That was great.
Bishop
No, you did Triple J. These guys are childish.
D.J. Wills
They in San Francisco, too, bro. You gotta be careful.

Mooc
Quentin Grimes.
Bishop
I'm taking Kobe White, man.
Nacho
Kobe White. Been hoping.
D.J. Wills
Yeah, I believe they should first. They should both be first.
Mooc
I mean, what's the. Because 520 is the team. The person that did the most bullshit this year, right?

Bishop
Yeah. Facts.
D.J. Wills

He lost every night, bro.
D.J. Wills
Yeah, but then Kobe White does the same thing every year for the last three Years. When he kills the last three years.
Bishop
Give me Jordan Poole. He better than all of them.
Mooc
My fault.
Bishop
I ain't he at the bottom.
D.J. Wills
You want Jordan Poole to be first team ball 520?
Bishop
Yeah, definitely my two guard. Him and Lamelo in the back court. A1 facts, okay?
D.J. Wills
I ain't mad at it.

D.J. Wills
At the five, are we going Walker, Kessler or Isaiah Stewart?
Bishop
I'm going Joel Embiid.
D.J. Wills
I get paid. Why is Joel.
Mooc
I paid a lot to do nothing.
D.J. Wills
All right, cool. First team all 520. We got LaMelo Ball. Jordan Poole, Joel Embiid, Zion Williamson. Wow.

Bishop
Yeah.
Mooc
Nah.
D.J. Wills
Over Lamelo. Lamello just was hurt all year.
Mooc
No, because LaMelo was leading in votes for the All Star game and wasn't even playing.

Bad job play. Lamelo's still lit and he didn't play at all. Yeah, he's really has play any basketball at all. And y'all were there here debating me really like, he should make the all star team.

D.J. Wills
Only one of those players is going to play the game. The other two will DMP for sure. All right, man. Best verified buckets of the season. Let's just roll through some of these, man. Crazy, crazy scores. First off, Joker went crazy April 1 against the T Wolves. 61 points, 10 rebounds, 10 assists.
Mooc
Well, you was a fool that day.
D.J. Wills
Triple double is crazy.
Bishop
He has to just make because he on here three times.
D.J. Wills
Number two, mvp, bro. Hey, don't start that mvp, bro.
Mooc
Number two, y'all say, is not on here. No, just being real.
Bishop
That's what I was about to say. Y'all are some haters. Who made this list.
D.J. Wills
Shout out to Lou.
Bishop
Oh, man. Run it down, DJ. Okay.
D.J. Wills
That's hilarious. Yanis. November 13th against the Pistons had 59, 14 and 7.
Mooc
Crazy.
D.J. Wills
That's insane. Luca on 12, 15 against Golden State hat 45, 11 and 13. That's insane as well. Steph Curry on April 1st against Memphis had 52 points, 10 rebounds, and 8 assists. Joker again on January 23rd had 35 points, 22 rebounds, and 17 assists. And then again, Joker on March 7th had 31 points, 21 rebounds, and 22 assists. Of these, I could just pick whatever way I want from Joker, because obviously it doesn't matter.
Mooc
I'm gonna go with the 61, 10 and 10.
Nacho
Got to.
Mooc
Yeah, that's crazy. Or the 31, 21 and 22 is kind of crazy.
Bishop
That's. That's different. For you to have the energy to have that many assistant rebounds is crazy, bro.
D.J. Wills
The reluctance, too. The funny part about, you know, how.
Bishop
Hard you got to work, bro, to get 10 rebounds, bro. This had 22, bro.
Mooc
He.
Nacho
He's cursed.
Mooc
Crazy, bro. He has 22 assists, bro, and he.
Nacho
Don'T have no 22 assists. He got a more.
Mooc
I ain't never had 20 assists in the game. And he the center.
Bishop
I mean, what's the most rebounds you ever had in the game?
Mooc
Probably like eight.
Bishop
Damn. You weren't crashing.
Mooc
Nah, I'm six foot.
Nacho
22 is crazy.
Bishop
Russell, crash.
Mooc
Yeah, Russell, he's six. Fold.
Bishop
What up, Chris Paul? Crash. What's your excuse, King?
Mooc
I had nine. Oh. Ass.
D.J. Wills
Not mine.
Bishop
Remember anything else?
Mooc
Two rebounds a game.
Bishop
How many?
Mooc
Two.
D.J. Wills
Oh, what's my career?
Mooc
Hiding assistance.
Bishop
That's all the times you got in the game for a few minutes, I had to Sit back down my stats with this. You probably would legit had higher than 2.4 assists.
D.J. Wills
18, 18.
Mooc
6 game.
D.J. Wills
Okay.
Mooc
Against the sad ass Hornets.
Bishop
Damn. He was passing the out that. What year was that?
Mooc
2018. I was in Minnesota.
Bishop
Damn.
D.J. Wills
Oh, yeah.
Mooc
Damn. I was passing like that in Minnesota.
Bishop
That's how you know a don't like passing. For real. That is adjusting to your environment right there.
Mooc
Nah, I was always top 10 in the SIS, yo. Shit when I was playing.
Bishop
18 is a lot of SIS, though.
Nacho
Yeah.
Mooc
Hell yeah.
D.J. Wills
You went crazy, diamond.
Nacho
That shit.
D.J. Wills
But yeah, so we're going with that one because that's crazy. Also that that Yanis versus Pistons 60:14 to 7 is crazy. Yeah, but it's just not 60. 10, 10.
Bishop
Yeah, you just get it for the year, bro.
D.J. Wills
Come on, man. Verified book of the year, man. Shout out to Yolk Super Chat x Seattle Dance with Julius Randall. Enter his player option year. Do y'all see him staying in Minnesota all next year? If not, what team would benefit from him?
Mooc
He's gonna have to. He's gonna sign that player option.
D.J. Wills
Yeah, he gonna opt in and get.
Mooc
That bread because I just don't see nobody paying him what he's about to make this year unless he got a team that's willing to give him a three year deal at a lower number that he's comfortable with. But I just don't see that team. Ain't too many teams out there that need a Julius Randle, to be honest.
Bishop
Yeah.
Nacho
Sign that player option, my boy.
D.J. Wills
Get that bread, bro.
Mooc
Who needs a Julius Randall?
Nacho
He don't move the needle, bro.
Bishop
He don't move the needle. No, he's just a good glue guy.
Mooc
He's just a good player.
Nacho
He's a good player, bro. He just needs to stay where he at. S player option.
Mooc
He probably need to go to. I'm running down the scenes. Portland don't need him.
D.J. Wills
No, he don't move the needle, bro.
Bishop
Chicago, bro.
Mooc
Chicago might use him.
Nacho
That ain't gonna do nothing, bro.
Bishop
That'd be cool.
Nacho
Still a good player.
Mooc
We got Jalen Johnson.
Bishop
Oh, he'll be in J.J. white.
Mooc
We don't need you.
Bishop
Will soon, bro. I forgot you was hurt.
D.J. Wills
Yeah, yeah, yeah. He's a good player, but a lot of people.
Bishop
I ain't gonna let y'all write off Junior like that.
D.J. Wills
It's the money ain't him him. He's a good player.
Mooc
Yeah. I mean, if he. Anybody taking for 12, 15 years, getting.
Nacho
For the low, of course you can.
Bishop
Get him for a dub, bro.
Nacho
He wants.
Bishop
He get it for 20.
Mooc
Yeah. I mean, people still would be a little iffy.
Bishop
I gave him a three year 60 people.
Mooc
A little iffy on the 20, brother.
Bishop
Yeah, bro, he worth three years 60.
Mooc
I mean, he's worth that, but he just don't do nothing.
Nacho
Don't move the needle, bro. You like, we're not.
Mooc
Look at Minnesota, bro.
Bishop
What you want him to do, bro?
Mooc
It's not him. It is him, but it's just. He just. No, he just not. He productive, but it just don't matter.
Nacho
It don't matter, bro. He's gonna get his little numbers, but it don't matter.
Bishop
So his 20 and 9 is not meaningful.
Mooc
It's like Kevin loves 20 niggas in Minnesota. Like, Kevin love you cold, but it's like, whatever.
Bishop
Ain't that a bitch?
Mooc
He cold, though, but it's just like, think about it. Kevin Love 18 was more effective, LeBron and them than his 30 in Minnesota. Nobody cared about his 30 in Minnesota.
Nacho
And he was going crazy in Minnesota.
D.J. Wills
Yeah, he was getting your guns.
Nacho
They was getting their ass kicked, bro.
Mooc
But his 18, he about to get his jersey retired.
Bishop
But I think Julius Randall, the Minnesota Timbers was so sad with them, bro. Julius Randle helps them win games, y'all.
Nacho
I'm not saying that for the next team, bro. He don't.
Mooc
They were great.
Bishop
Stiff boy.
Nacho
As much money as you want, bro. You gotta make me feel like we can win the championship, go to Phoenix.
D.J. Wills
Last of years, when he was. He wasn't playing and, you know, they had a good season. And now this year, I mean. But honestly, Minnesota played better since he's came back from injury, but they still like this underachieving season.
Nacho
Yeah.
Mooc
So, I mean, he's good. He can go to Phoenix, bro. They could trade him for kd because they. They got to get rid of kd.
Nacho
And they just gonna be. It'll be cool.
Mooc
They were so bad this year. It can't get no worse.
Nacho
Yeah, they gonna be cool. Like, you know what I'm saying?
Bishop
I respect it, bro.
Nacho
He can go to Phoenix.
Bishop
I stand down with this one. I got y'all.
Mooc
Yeah, KD can go to kd. Going to Timberwolves. Julius Randle gonna go to Phoenix.
Nacho

He decided to wait before a T shirt nigga. It's crazy. That was funny.
D.J. Wills
Rewind. His slow motion makes it terrible. His gather was disgusting.

He thought your D fucked up both.

Mooc
Luca, this is. This is that D Wade.
D.J. Wills
That's got to be a top tier. The. The trade is crazy, but roll the tape.
Bishop
Yeah, just roll it.
