[D.J. Wells]

That's why I said OG Your age, Mook.

[J. Edgar Hoover]

But it don't matter, nigga.

[Mook]

[D.J. Wells]

You got three more years. Step in. Go cut me a chick.

[Bishop Hendricks]

[Bishop Hendricks]

[J. Edgar Hoover]

[Mook]

[Bishop Hendricks]

That ain't bad.

[D.J. Wells]

He was born an old one. That's crazy.

[Bishop Hendricks]

[J. Edgar Hoover]

You started when he was 18, bro.

[Mook]

Yeah, bro. You doing a real big bro.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Yeah, ain't bad. Five years ain't bad.

[D.J. Wells]

Shout out to the Kobe year for sure. They took care of business, man. Listen, the real game yesterday, Alabama State and St. Francis wrote a clip.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Shout out to my boys down there in the trenches.

[D.J. Wells]

Come on, man. Shout out to two.

[Bishop Hendricks]

No nil at all.

[D.J. Wells]

Oh, no. They doing for the love of the game. For sure. March Madness kicked off. Hail Mary play.

[J. Edgar Hoover]

It look like Arlington out there.

[D.J. Wells]

First of all, that's crazy. As a coach, are you putting somebody on the ball? An opposite side of the court. That's bubby and ill. Everybody get back.

[J. Edgar Hoover]

Good win.

[Mook]

Everybody get back.

[Bishop Hendricks]

I'm getting all the way back. I'm getting under the bucket.

[D.J. Wells]

That's crazy.

[Mook]

Everybody get back. What we doing?

[Bishop Hendricks]

Like, why he deny? Look at dude right here denying at half court. He's doing nothing. Look at him right here at the three point line of red. What are you doing? What are you doing? You doing nothing?

[J. Edgar Hoover]

Yeah, who is he going?

[Bishop Hendricks]

Nothing. He don't even see the ball. This is a bad play by that team.

[Mook]

Bad coach. They deserve a little moves.

[J. Edgar Hoover]

John Tay Porter, he took over.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Look at him, bro. He can't even see the boat.

[D.J. Wells]

Let's see his draft kings account for sure now.

[Mook]

That is actually crazy. Why is he touching?

[D.J. Wells]

I never really know that. To them.

[Bishop Hendricks]

That's one of the worst basketball players I think I've ever seen. Like what? Who are you guarding? You can't even see the ball in the air. Like if they was to throw it over your head right to him at half court, you couldn't even see it.

[J. Edgar Hoover]

You just blew it.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Yeah, dude could have got a three pointer. Really?

[Mook]

Thanks.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Like, look, if he throw it to dude a half court just threw it over the top of his head. He could have dribbled two dribble and shot a three.

[Mook]

Yeah, they deserve that exit.

[J. Edgar Hoover]

Well, this is what the madness is about, man.

[D.J. Wells]

Come on, man, play in. That is pure 16. Team sees that's my get well soon.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Y'all don't even gotta ask me, dude at half court.

[D.J. Wells]

Oh, that's the crazy part.

[J. Edgar Hoover]

That's him right there.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Nah, I hope that.

[D.J. Wells]

But now the gift is going up. That is tough, man.

[Mook]

Like, what are you doing, bro? He is standing the wrong way in the locker room.

[D.J. Wells]

What do you say after a loss like that?

[Mook]

Coaching, bro. That's terrible.

[J. Edgar Hoover]

Ain't even thinking about him though. I'm gonna be real. Yeah, but they ain't thinking about him, bro.

[D.J. Wells]

Bro, a hail mary lay for game is crazy.

[Mook]

Everybody get back, bro.

[J. Edgar Hoover]

Yeah.

[Mook]

What are we doing?

[Bishop Hendricks]

Am I gonna catch it in front of you, bro?

[D.J. Wells]

Man, if that set the tone for the tournament, we about to have a hell of a next two weeks. For sure, man.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Should be exciting.

[D.J. Wells]

For sure, man. Shout out to iu. You got a new coach, man. Took West Virginia's coach, Darian Devries. Hey, we talked about this IU job being a job that people really not want to deal with the pressure with, but obviously he tapped in. Mook, how you feel about this hire?

[Mook]

I mean, he had a cool year at West V. Is he really gonna make that much of a difference? No, I don't see it. It's cool.

[Bishop Hendricks]

He must be a heck of a recruiter or something. Cause I don't understand the hire. I mean, West Virginia had an okay season. They probably should have made the tournamen. They complaining that they should have made a tournament over at unc. But like J. Billis said, win more games.

[Mook]

Yeah, if you gotta sue somebody to get in a tournament, you shouldn't make turn.

[D.J. Wells]

First of all, that's crazy. Going to the law. That's like Drake. That's out of pocket, bro.

[Mook]

What are we doing, bro?

[Bishop Hendricks]

But I don't think people want the IU job. I mean, you see a lot of coaches that get it. Tom Crane, hall of Fame coach. Kelvin Sampson, gonna be a hall of Fame coach. All these guys that had that job, they didn't really get a fair shake at it.

[Mook]

It's just one of them jobs. It's like Kentucky, you know, it's just. It's a lot of pressure come with that job, bro. It is. You gotta win chips. They want wins, they want to win championships.

[J. Edgar Hoover]

It's a winning program.

[Bishop Hendricks]

But they don't really win.

[Mook]

They don't, but that's what they expect.

[Bishop Hendricks]

They haven't won a year. They like the Cowboys.

[J. Edgar Hoover]

Nah, that's a fact, bro. They haven't won since the 80s.

[Mook]

They haven't, but they still think they supposed to win every year.

[D.J. Wells]

I didn't need that comparison. But respect. But it's accurate.

[Mook]

It's definitely accurate.

[D.J. Wells]

Bob Knight's not walking through the door, bro.

[Bishop Hendricks]

And then the swag is so weak.

[Mook]

Yeah, they need that candy cane.

[Bishop Hendricks]

I hate that the jerseys is weak.

[Mook]

Like the whole it warm ups is ass.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Everything is weak. The building, we. I mean, it's a. It's a nostalgia building, but like historical.

[Mook]

But.

[J. Edgar Hoover]

Kids don't care. Kids generally don't care about history, bro. They don't like real talk, bro. These kids do not give a damn. These kids don't even remember when y'all play beer.

[Bishop Hendricks]

They don't? They don't.

[J. Edgar Hoover]

They be damn if they listen to a Bob Nice story.

[Mook]

Come on.

[J. Edgar Hoover]

Yeah.

[Bishop Hendricks]

And you say he choked somebody? They definitely nothing, bro.

[D.J. Wells]

Throwing chairs. These kids is crashers. They'd have put hands and feet on Bob Knight, bro.

[Mook]

That'll never happen today.

[D.J. Wells]

Nah.

[J. Edgar Hoover]

So they probably do need to coach that. I mean, we gotta let him figure it out first. Give him a chance. Because he, like you said, he might be a fire recruit coach.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Yeah, he might be able to recruit. That's the only thing I could think of.

[J. Edgar Hoover]

But we're gonna give him a chance, man.

[D.J. Wells]

He turned up Drake though. He got Drake to a really nice program. So he did do his job for sure. He's familiar with the Midwest, so recruiting may help as well. He's also bringing his son over, too, who's pretty nice as well, so. Hey. Oh, yeah, Nothing wrong with that. You know, the vibes tap in. He averaged 15, though. He wouldn't know.

[J. Edgar Hoover]

He ain't no criminal or daddy boss. Supposed to stop at nine. You come on, man.

[D.J. Wells]

Now you hating.

[J. Edgar Hoover]

Come on, man. Bring your son to college, bro. Who is the son, bro? He probably.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Man.

[J. Edgar Hoover]

How old is it? He 22.

[Bishop Hendricks]

He's 26. And he about to get the biggest nil. He averaged 15.

[D.J. Wells]

Look, bro, 15 to 5. Turn me up.

[J. Edgar Hoover]

Help your daddy recruit get in the field.

[D.J. Wells]

I'm the first recruit get in the field, man. He waiting. He's six, seven. How you gonna love him?

[J. Edgar Hoover]

Nah, we gonna get.

[D.J. Wells]

We'll see.

[J. Edgar Hoover]

He back for sure. Cause they gonna be. They gonna be happy, man, to bring some spark back to iu. That's a college town, for real.

[Mook]

It is. We don't see, though.

[D.J. Wells]

It's crazy because Matt Painter always said, hey, y'all fans, y'all should just really chill out. Y'all can have y'all coach for a long time. It's like, shut up. We don't like y'all the ops, but it's Loki. Kind of true. Yeah.

[J. Edgar Hoover]

Game cup. Don't give it to them, though. He said, I'm out of here.

[D.J. Wells]

Players in that portal Game cup slid.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Ohio University.

[D.J. Wells]

He's out of here.

[Mook]

Gone.

[Bishop Hendricks]

He going back to the crib.

[J. Edgar Hoover]

Oh, wait. That's a bad loss.

[D.J. Wells]

Yeah, that's a tough one for sure. All right, man, we got some games tonight, some more play ins. Hopefully that could be as good as yesterday. 16 matchup. American University and Mount Saint Mary's. I'm not too familiar with either one of these. Mook, who you got?

[Mook]

That's an assy game. I like Mount St. Mary's though.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Okay?

[Mook]

I watched them a few times this year. They pretty good.

[D.J. Wells]

Respect. Not a real game after that. Texas versus Xavier. Eleven seed play in nine, 10pm where we going with it, man?

[J. Edgar Hoover]

I. Damn, man. I'm gonna rock with Ryan.

[Bishop Hendricks]

I want Xavier to win, but I think Texas is gonna win. But I want Xavier right now.

[J. Edgar Hoover]

Trey raw.

[Mook]

He is nasty.

[J. Edgar Hoover]

Jesus.

[D.J. Wells]

NBA prospect for sure.

[J. Edgar Hoover]

I'm rooting for the home team.

[Mook]

I'm going with Xavier, too.

[Bishop Hendricks]

I want Xavier to win, but my betting hand says Texas.

[D.J. Wells]

Okay. I'm a rock out with Xavier's real shout out to Ryan. Now, can we put a bracket up one more Time, please. I'm gonna go through here and see. Obviously we ain't gonna be able to get here through the weekend, but any of these games, any upsets you picking so far, underseason might surprise some people because we ain't super tapped in on the Kyle's side.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Damn, that Drake matchup. I got Drake winning. I don't know exactly who they play. Yeah, I got him.

[Mook]

Could sneak a win out on Maryland, bro. They good, bro. People don't know about them. Yeah, okay. Silent team. I like Drake too. BCU could beat byu.

[D.J. Wells]

Yeah, it's gonna be a hell of a game.

[Mook]

It's gonna be a great game.

[D.J. Wells]

Damn.

[Mook]

What number Liberty could be Oregon, bro.

[J. Edgar Hoover]

I promise you.

[D.J. Wells]

Liberty like that.

[Mook]

They good, bro.

[Bishop Hendricks]

11, 6 matchup.

[J. Edgar Hoover]

Okay.

[D.J. Wells]

I like that Styles make fights. He might disrupt my boy Robert Morris down there. Yeah, Robert Morris.

[J. Edgar Hoover]

They put Arkansas.

[D.J. Wells]

They play Alabama.

[Bishop Hendricks]

They might be a little bit.

[Mook]

Morris is good, bro.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Yeah.

[D.J. Wells]

I seen Alabama SEC this year. It might be a bus ass situation.

[Mook]

Alabama shaky, bro.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Alabama can score. Yeah, they put that ball to mess Arkansas play Kansas.

[D.J. Wells]

Yeah, that's gonna be a hell of a game.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Kansas gonna blow.

[D.J. Wells]

You don't think so?

[Mook]

I think Kansas gonna win, but there you go. It's gonna be a better game.

[D.J. Wells]

It's belt ass.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Cause can. He's trash.

[Mook]

For real.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Hey, is. But just for some reason. They got big man. That's gonna probably kill them. Hunter Dickerson, 36 years old.

[T-Mobile Representative]

He is.

[Mook]

They giving him a lot of money.

[D.J. Wells]

The OGs of the tournament is great.

[Bishop Hendricks]

He about to kill.

[J. Edgar Hoover]

Yeah, man.

[Mook]

Drake might be.

[Bishop Hendricks]

I'm really sick of these kids being that old in college.

[Mook]

Yeah, they gotta fix that, bro.

[D.J. Wells]

No, that's a way, bro. This is my job now. It's not college basketball. Oh my God.

[Mook]

If I had to fix that. That's ridiculous.

[D.J. Wells]

Where am I supposed to go?

[Bishop Hendricks]

Move all.

[D.J. Wells]

I want to leave.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Every time I look at Aub bro, I just get mad like why is he 25, turning 26 in the tournament?

[Mook]

A kid can't even get recruited from high school no more.

[J. Edgar Hoover]

Yeah, bro. You got to work super super hard.

[Bishop Hendricks]

That just makes me so mad.

[D.J. Wells]

That's crazy. Cuz Jim Verde could have been 25, bro. In college. The oldest nil player of all time for sure.

[Mook]

Nasty.

[D.J. Wells]

That's crazy.

[J. Edgar Hoover]

It have been worth it in his instance though. Cuz he really didn't pan out in the league, so.

[D.J. Wells]

But was lottery though.

[J. Edgar Hoover]

Yeah, but I'm saying he didn't have a successful NBA career. He would have probably read it up for real.

[D.J. Wells]

That's the person who was ahead of his time. If Jimmer came around in the the three friendly NBA era would have been around for a long time.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Jimmer would have been fan favorite.

[D.J. Wells]

Most definitely favorites to win it all. Man.

[Bishop Hendricks]

That's. That's.

[D.J. Wells]

We can we get all preliminary it we here now and see who's still here next week. Who y'all team back out to win it all.

[Mook]

I like Duke, bro.

[D.J. Wells]

I do.

[Mook]

If Cooper flag come back, I like Duke.

[J. Edgar Hoover]

Yeah, I'll take Duke.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Yeah, I'm taking Duke, man. I'm gonna go out a limb, Bruh. I got two picks. I'm either take Houston or I'm taking St. John's they defense travel.

[D.J. Wells]

Yeah, my bias says Louisville, but it's tough. We got cheated this year with that pick. But I'm going St. John's Rick Patino winning national championship sign for a different conversation for sure.

[J. Edgar Hoover]

Oh yeah. Duke meeked down. We. We clapping them. That's light day.

[Mook]

So if Rick win, he the greatest in my eyes.

[D.J. Wells]

If he goes and gets three national championships at three different universities and as many Final fours as he has, he has to be in the top five for sure.

[Mook]

That's far.

[D.J. Wells]

Cause nobody else moved around. Everybody else who had a lot of success stayed at one school. Very rarely do you see people who moved around and had success or multiple final Fours. Everywhere he went, they go to a final Four.

[J. Edgar Hoover]

He up there now.

[Mook]

And the schools he done did it at.

[J. Edgar Hoover]

Yeah, he up there now.

[Mook]

That's crazy, bro.

[D.J. Wells]

To win a rivalry in both universities. That's already legendary to me.

[Mook]

That's crazy.

[D.J. Wells]

That's like somebody going to Duke of North Carolina get a chip. That's.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Don't ever compare them two schools.

[D.J. Wells]

Barbaris. Yeah, it's on par.

[Mook]

It's a.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Water down.

[D.J. Wells]

It's real beef in Kentucky for Louisville and Kentucky fans, bro. I'm telling you truth.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Louisville Kentucky is not a real thing, bro.

[D.J. Wells]

No, it's. It's.

[Bishop Hendricks]

No, I was good, bro.

[D.J. Wells]

What are you talking about?

[Bishop Hendricks]

Y had when y'all had Gorgy and him.

[D.J. Wells]

We have more national championships than White Forest.

[Bishop Hendricks]

White Forest ain't. We don't got no rivalry.

[D.J. Wells]

Exactly. Either. Y'all don't either. Kentucky Louis was one of the biggest robbery in all sports.

[J. Edgar Hoover]

Duke in North Carolina.

[D.J. Wells]

It's not.

[Bishop Hendricks]

It's not even a real robbery.

[D.J. Wells]

College experts will tell you that.

[Mook]

It's a little bit under that.

[Bishop Hendricks]

It ain't a real robbery. Y'all just in the same state, bro.

[Mook]

It's a little Bit under that.

[J. Edgar Hoover]

Y'all are wild.

[D.J. Wells]

Y'all was 15 minutes from autumn campuses. Y'all have no ops.

[Bishop Hendricks]

45.

[Mook]

45.

[D.J. Wells]

Y have no ops. Y'all down the street, Forest in North Carolina.

[Bishop Hendricks]

No rivals. No, because we a private school. Super Duke and North Carolina right next to each other.

[D.J. Wells]

If it's behind that, it's the biggest.

[Mook]

Rivalry in sports, but it's getting watered.

[J. Edgar Hoover]

Down on some real. Y'all are Indiana and Purdue.

[D.J. Wells]

No.

[Bishop Hendricks]

And that's bigger.

[D.J. Wells]

We didn't make this list.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Indiana and Purdue is bigger than.

[J. Edgar Hoover]

No, no, bro.

[D.J. Wells]

No, it's not, bro.

[Mook]

Them is the same, bro.

[J. Edgar Hoover]

Because of the players. Kentucky helps that rivalry.

[D.J. Wells]

No, Kentucky.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Kentucky's so much greater.

[Mook]

You've been weak for a minute. So they ain't really helping they rivalry. But it's still a rivalry.

[D.J. Wells]

Who did y'all play in the Final Four the year y'all won? Who'd y'all play in the Final Four? And then who won next year? So we went to two back Final Fours, right? We didn't.

[Bishop Hendricks]

I know. I told y. Y'all had a two year row where y'all were good. Like Kentucky been good.

[D.J. Wells]

Go back to 96, 90, go back to 60.

[Mook]

It's like Cincinnati, Xavier. All them shits is the same, bro.

[J. Edgar Hoover]

Now y'all help that rivalry out a lot. No, we do a whole lot, bro.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Cause y'all win too many. Like.

[J. Edgar Hoover]

Yes.

[Mook]

I mean, we is putting belts at.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Yeah.

[D.J. Wells]

Like, at one point, Indiana was fired.

[Bishop Hendricks]

And Purdue got lit. Now, like, you can see the difference. Like. All right, it's a good game. I mean, that's why I'm saying it's.

[D.J. Wells]

Still a weak game.

[Mook]

North Carolina, Duke is.

[Bishop Hendricks]

No, they got too much history, bro.

[D.J. Wells]

But then you got.

[Bishop Hendricks]

You go back to Michael Jordan.

[D.J. Wells]

Then you got. I can say Junior Bridgman. He won the national championship at Louisville, so maybe going that far back.

[Bishop Hendricks]

No, but I'm saying rp. But I'm saying they still got.

[D.J. Wells]

They got Ray Felton.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Then they just had. When Marcus and them play Carolina.

[J. Edgar Hoover]

What's them boys Louisville got in 1983.

[Bishop Hendricks]

When they had John Henson, Harrison, what's.

[D.J. Wells]

His name, who played for Louisville in 83?

[Mook]

Nobody.

[D.J. Wells]

It don't matter. We got a champ. Jordan Worthy, Sam Perkins. We're going to love out, though, for sure.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Yeah, I got no get with y'all.

[Mook]

For real.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Y'all got Donovan, Mitchell, Terry Rozier.

[D.J. Wells]

Shout out to my Francisco Garcia. Show respect.

[Bishop Hendricks]

That's what I'm saying.

[D.J. Wells]

Now we start doing Kentucky Free T. Will, we could just do Three years ago, Kentucky. It's gonna look crazy. Oh, if you're going to that point, then I don't disagree.

[J. Edgar Hoover]

A little of a fire player. I ain't gonna disrespect y'all like that. But when you speaking, that's different. When you speaking about Kentucky.

[D.J. Wells]

Thank you.

[Bishop Hendricks]

It's a rivalry, bro.

[Mook]

It's down there, bro. It's not as big as Duke, North Carolina, but survival.

[D.J. Wells]

No, bro. Even Rondo with the. Even Rondo from Louisville with the Kentucky, man. That's cuz. Rino. He went press.

[Mook]

He made the right choice.

[J. Edgar Hoover]

I'm just saying, bro, y'all can't. When somebody. When a team carries so much, you can't call that a rivalry, bro. That's all we say. It's supposed to be back to back.

[Bishop Hendricks]

I'll make it simple for y'all. It's like Brooklyn and the Knicks. It's like the Nets and the Knicks. That's how Kentucky.

[D.J. Wells]

We win championships.

[Mook]

So we go to saying, they get chips, bro.

[D.J. Wells]

They knew we had the same amount of Kentucky has in the last, what, since 96?

[Mook]

All right, come on now.

[D.J. Wells]

Shout out to you. You put a banner up.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Come on.

[D.J. Wells]

We got one. Next year, though, we better than y'all for sure. I ain't gonna disrespect.

[Mook]

We better.

[Bishop Hendricks]

I got one chip.

[D.J. Wells]

Okay, everybody BL A nut P. Well, wait. Y'all better get lucky, cuz. Goddamn. It better is Bear.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Listen, we ain't pay enough people.

[J. Edgar Hoover]

Okay, I'll give y'all. This is. Louisville have better lineage than Yukon players.

[D.J. Wells]

No, bro, if you going players. No, we're not going to never match that. No, Louisville is with Wake Forest. Got two back to back. A better lineage than Louisville alumni base. I agree.

[Mook]

Ucon one of them ones, bro.

[D.J. Wells]

Yeah.

[J. Edgar Hoover]

So whoever UConn is carrying. That's right. We need to be above the Kentucky Louisville one, bro.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Nobody else.

[Mook]

We only got one.

[Bishop Hendricks]

It's like Wake Forest. We don't got one. That's cool.

[Mook]

I'm just saying. I played in that game, bro. That's a rivalry, bro.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Listen, Kentucky Indiana game bigger than the Louisville Kentucky cap.

[D.J. Wells]

I ain't gonna lie, bro. They're bigger than the Louisville Kentucky.

[Bishop Hendricks]

That's robbery, bro.

[Mook]

It is a robbery. Kentucky Indiana.

[Bishop Hendricks]

I ain't gonna lie, bro, that Louisville.

[D.J. Wells]

Is kind of worn down. Hey, shout out to we top 10 in the nation. We got a A.C. that's cheap, bro. They hate. Boy, don't do that move.

[Mook]

I'm just keeping it real.

[D.J. Wells]

Don't do that defund Crayton, like, think about. Think about Louisville two years ago.

[Mook]

Yeah, they was ass.

[J. Edgar Hoover]

Oh, my God.

[D.J. Wells]

Stop snitching. That's what happened. Start snitching our program.

[Bishop Hendricks]

It got ugly.

[Mook]

Don't do kitty pain like that.

[D.J. Wells]

No, kitty pain deserves worse, man. Like, he came to Louisville.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Coach Mack was there. That's my guy.

[D.J. Wells]

He a White Forest guy. Hey, we was on death penalty, bro.

[J. Edgar Hoover]

I just looked it up. They got UConn in Georgetown as a rider.

[D.J. Wells]

Oh, that's Bro, I never knew yukon and tennis.

[J. Edgar Hoover]

UConn and Tennessee women's basketball. That's bigger than Louisville for sure.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Pass something. Yeah, that's where I'm at.

[J. Edgar Hoover]

Respect.

[D.J. Wells]

Shout out to the game. What would you say is the hardest adjustment for y'all coming from a successful college career to the NBA? And are you going to play BJ101?

[J. Edgar Hoover]

[Mook]

Yeah, yeah. And then the structure in college, you real structure. You go to NBA, it's freedom. Do whatever you want. Everything on you. But, yeah, not playing.

[D.J. Wells]

All right, let's get to the league yesterday. The warriors got a dub over the Bucks yesterday, 104 to 93. Steph did not play due to rest, but it didn't matter. Jimmy picked up the slack with 24 10, 8 yesterday. Brandon Paszinski went crazy with 17 7, Giannis had 297 and Dame had 16.

[Bishop Hendricks]

I gotta figure out what's up with Dame, man. He ain't really been having a really good last month.

[D.J. Wells]

Nah, he hasn't.

[Bishop Hendricks]

He been struggling a little bit.

[D.J. Wells]

The Bucs as a whole, yeah, they.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Been struggling, but you gotta get that.

[D.J. Wells]

Dub yesterday with Steph being out. I know the warriors are a capable team, but it's playoff time. Y'all gotta get that dub for sure.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Look at him. That's just not. That's not dame. We got 16, 19, 2, 33%. They don't know how to second option, bro.

[Mook]

That's not his thing.

[J. Edgar Hoover]

Think that's his biggest struggle.

[Bishop Hendricks]

It ain't even. I mean, he ain't supposed to. He ain't supposed to be a second option.

[D.J. Wells]

Yeah, yeah, bro. That's a franchise player flat out. And Giannis, as we know, is not the easiest player to deal with. Superstar wise. He dominates the ball more than a guard, so it's kind of hard for him to get rid of him. But yesterday's loss, man. I mean, shout out to the warriors. They've been rolling, but you got to get that dub yesterday.

[Mook]

Yeah.

[D.J. Wells]

Dang, that's tough, man. But Jimmy Butler, obviously more than capable.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Nah, we know what Jimmy can do.

[Mook]

That Drew Holiday for Dame trade is. That's a terrible trade, bro. I'm sorry.

[Bishop Hendricks]

You think it's a bad trade?

[Mook]

Yeah, bro. Drew fit them too good, bro.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Yeah. Cause Drew is a Swiss army knife. Like, he allowed Giannis to play point guard. Cause he'd go sit in the dunker.

[D.J. Wells]

Yeah.

[Bishop Hendricks]

He won't bring the ball up. He'd go play off the ball.

[J. Edgar Hoover]

Yeah.

[D.J. Wells]

He could do.

[Bishop Hendricks]

That's what he do with the Boston Celtics right now. He don't even play point guard.

[D.J. Wells]

Nah. And obviously Dame is a Hall of Famer, but that trade alone up the Eastern Conference. Because Drew Holliday was not supposed to be on that Celtics team, bro.

[Mook]

Oh, now the Celtics look like they'll never lose, bro.

[Bishop Hendricks]

I think they need to give me some money for that. Yeah, I legit called that.

[D.J. Wells]

You did. You said it on wax.

[J. Edgar Hoover]

So you did.

[D.J. Wells]

Because honestly, if that trade doesn't happen, then Dane probably goes to Miami.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Yeah.

[D.J. Wells]

I mean, so obviously the Heat, they get the adjustment they looking for, but man, the Celtics don't look like they got to lose.

[Mook]

They good for a couple years, bro.

[D.J. Wells]

Yeah.

[Bishop Hendricks]

I think, I think the ideal of Damon Giannis fit and like everybody like, oh, that two man game is going to be ridiculous. But that's not how Giannis play. He's not a traditional pick and pop, pick and roll player. He can do that. But Yana's the type of dude to tell you to come set the screen. Yeah, he pushing and I'm not lying. He told me to set the screen.

[Mook]

That's what the he the point guard, bro.

[D.J. Wells]

Him tell you to subscribe, set the.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Screen and pop, man. All right, man. Knew my time was up.

[Mook]

Can't play like this.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Nah.

[J. Edgar Hoover]

Giannis telling the PG to come set the screen.

[Bishop Hendricks]

They do, though. Go watch the game.

[Mook]

Giannis, he gotta play with a point guard like Jrue Holiday. Cause he need the ball, bro.

[D.J. Wells]

Now, I asked what type of superstar would y'all think is ideal for Giannis? Cause obviously if things don't work out this year, he gone. That's pretty much right on the wall. What is a fit for him? But what team fits Giannis? Or you think he could make it work?

[J. Edgar Hoover]

Should the Warriors.

[D.J. Wells]

That would be cheating.

[Mook]

I would be cheating.

[Bishop Hendricks]

He had to go to a team like.

[D.J. Wells]

But I'm here for it, like. Yeah.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Cause Steph not a traditional point guard. Steph play off the ball. He have to go play with a person like that. Like, even though I compare Dame and Steph all the time, Dame is a ball dominant point Guard, like, he make plays for other people. He can play off the ball with another perimeter player who plays similar to him, can make plays and get him some shots, too.

[J. Edgar Hoover]

Right.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Yan is not like that. He's not a traditional big. So you gotta find a guard who's not like a traditional point guard.

[Mook]

Yep.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Like, he couldn't play with a lamelo. No, no.

[Mook]

Anybody that need the ball, he can't play with.

[J. Edgar Hoover]

Luca can't play with Ja.

[Bishop Hendricks]

No.

[D.J. Wells]

Oh, no, no.

[Mook]

You can't play with nobody that need the ball, bro.

[Bishop Hendricks]

They gotta be Drew Holiday with the perfect point guard for him.

[J. Edgar Hoover]

Perfect.

[Bishop Hendricks]

That's why they had success.

[D.J. Wells]

Damn.

[Bishop Hendricks]

I can't think of nobody else that's kind of like. Like he could play with, like, Derrick White now. Yeah, he could play with, like, all.

[Mook]

That type of shit.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Yeah.

[D.J. Wells]

So if you're the Bucks and you want to keep him, obviously you're gonna probably have to move Dane, but, like, what piece do you get to make Giannis happy? Is it just like it? I'm just gonna rock out by myself until I'm gone.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Sometimes the best. The best shit you got is what you had Sometimes.

[J. Edgar Hoover]

Preach.

[D.J. Wells]

Talk your shit. Yeah, about that in.

[J. Edgar Hoover]

That's a fact.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Oh, man.

[D.J. Wells]

ESPN crazy.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Like, everybody wanted, you know, Drew to get leave Chris to leave, break up their team, do all that, and they ain't had no real success since then. I ain't saying him and Dane won't. I mean, they had. They got injured last year, but it's just gonna be a lot of pressure on this year.

[Mook]

Dang. Thought he was about to be getting a pick and roll. He won't be rolling. Hitting the pocket pad. He ain't getting none of that.

[D.J. Wells]

And they get on Dame on the corner. That's crazy.

[Mook]

Watch out, boy.

[J. Edgar Hoover]

I mean, I don't know. We talked to him, man. He said they can win it.

[Mook]

I mean, but he got it.

[J. Edgar Hoover]

He was, like, talking to us, like, bro, I'm telling y'all, we. We clicking. And then now, I mean, Dame just.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Gotta play at a super, super high level, because if he's not making shots, if he's not scoring, it's gonna be so tough. And the shots that he gotta make are so tough.

[Mook]

He can make them, but he can.

[Bishop Hendricks]

But they tough. We know he Damon Special, he one of them guys, but it's just Giannis. Playing with Giannis is just different, man.

[D.J. Wells]

Just different. One of the things you talk about, this buck scene we got off the subject is you talked about Andre Jackson's, like, contribution to that team.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Yeah.

[D.J. Wells]

His minutes is all gone because of Kyle Kuzma.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Yeah.

[D.J. Wells]

And cool shot 7, 16 yesterday. 5 for 13 from 3. But if cools ain't like hooping, like hooping. Hooping. Or find a group of this team, it's gonna be ugly for them to get.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Yeah.

[D.J. Wells]

The extra boost they need because they can't rely on Brook Lopez all the time. Obviously capable, but you can't rely on that.

[Bishop Hendricks]

You know why you need an Andre Jackson, though? It's cause he make Dame jobs so much easier. Like, I'm a guard. The best perimeter player. Right. But I also can push the ball. Cause he fast as shit, he athletic as hell. He can pass, he can dribble. He just can't shoot at all. But he do the small things, like those extra shots that Dame need. He'll dribble, hand that shit off, throw it back to Dame Dame and get that shot. Well, Kyle Kuzma, he's shooting at me. Nah, that's going up. Gary Trent going up. All of them was going up. And you need those guys to score or whatever, but he just made them little plays and like, them little things that. Them extra possessions that they wanted, he was getting them.

[Mook]

People like him make championship teams, bro.

[J. Edgar Hoover]

Yeah.

[Mook]

Do all the extra shit.

[D.J. Wells]

Yeah. I would like to see a report on this Bucs team about the assists in the first half and how they translate to the second half. Cause if you hit in the first half, y'all just keep swinging. Boy, when they go 1 for 2, 1 for 3 in that first half, that second half, they are an easier team to guard because you only know it's going to be Dame or him.

[J. Edgar Hoover]

And they going to be straight in the playoffs, man.

[D.J. Wells]

I mean, yeah, they got two.

[Mook]

It depends on who they play.

[J. Edgar Hoover]

We. We. We giving them too much hack now.

[D.J. Wells]

I mean, it's time.

[Bishop Hendricks]

It's only too early, y'all. It ain't. It's not that many games left.

[D.J. Wells]

Yeah, they're a capable team for sure, bro. But they.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Yeah, I mean, they got kick ass. They got two hall of Famers.

[Mook]

I don't know, bro.

[D.J. Wells]

I'm not. So the way that they play at the end of games is so crazy that they could possibly, possibly lose some games they shouldn't lose.

[J. Edgar Hoover]

All right?

[D.J. Wells]

I mean, like you said, they got Damian. It's always enough, for sure. But shout out to the Bucks, man. Yeah. Moving on. Celtics beat the necessary 104 to 96. JT and JB didn't play. Didn't matter anyway. Porzingis had 25 or 13. Derrick White had 18. Delos showed up with 18 to 7 as well. Porzingis became the 10th player in NBA history to have 900 blocks and 900 threes in his career. That's crazy that he is even a Celtic.

[Mook]

I mean, I really don't see nobody beating him, bro.

[Bishop Hendricks]

I ain't gonna lie.

[D.J. Wells]

Yeah, he don't even play for months and just come back and do like this.

[Mook]

Like 13. Like.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Like they had those career numbers right there. And you probably played. Missed 3 years in your career. All the games either missed. He probably missed three years.

[J. Edgar Hoover]

Yeah.

[Bishop Hendricks]

It's like, dang. He was a special talent, my boy. And to have him just in the tuck.

[Mook]

That is crazy. That's crazy on the Celtics.

[J. Edgar Hoover]

That's true.

[D.J. Wells]

That trade is crazy.

[Mook]

That's true. Holiday on the Celtics, bro. What is going on?

[Bishop Hendricks]

Yeah, he played 400. What do you play? 493 games?

[J. Edgar Hoover]

Yeah, he's probably missed 493 and I.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Have 900 blocks in 493.

[Mook]

That's crazy.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Pretty. Pretty good career.

[D.J. Wells]

And he left two teams that really could have used him now, which is crazy. The Knicks and also the Mavs.

[Bishop Hendricks]

That's crazy, bro.

[J. Edgar Hoover]

The Mavs love him right now.

[Mook]

What?

[D.J. Wells]

But he also. Well, the Knicks, he got hurt, but he was killing in New York.

[Mook]

Killing.

[D.J. Wells]

Now he's just on the super. Like, they are really a super team on the Louisian keys. You have elite players all around, bro.

[Mook]

They are a super team, bro.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Yeah, like even look at they rookie.

[D.J. Wells]

Come on, man.

[Bishop Hendricks]

He played 18 minutes all season. He got 20 point games, 13 in the fourth.

[D.J. Wells]

30Th pick. They play all year. Shout out to young Baylor.

[J. Edgar Hoover]

That nigga's averaging a dub shooting 48%.

[D.J. Wells]

And that show starting five.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Missed 260 games, bro. Those stats would be crazy.

[D.J. Wells]

So he would have a thousand. A thousand in both of those situations.

[J. Edgar Hoover]

Already surpassed that. That's only 100 more.

[D.J. Wells]

I was just being generous in the situation.

[J. Edgar Hoover]

Yeah, he one of the ones.

[Mook]

[Bishop Hendricks]

But you get your 30th pick in the draft, rookie getting 20 points, 13 in the fourth. It's just something they got over there in player development. That's just working out and shout out to my guy. He got the eye, Brad.

[J. Edgar Hoover]

Yeah, like Brad Stevens guy for sure.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Going through like even trading to get Derrick White. Like when it happened, it was like, why would you trade here and then, you know, make a tough decision to trade Marcus Smart, who was a Celtic through and through to make that trade. People was kind of upset at first and then to see what it turned out to be. Nobody said a word since.

[D.J. Wells]

Presented by Capital One, founding partner of iHeart Women's Sports.

[D.J. Wells]

All right, man. Possible one a matchup. The Thunder versus Clippers. I don't know if they can win that series, but they got some hell of players on the Clipper side and make it a little bit difficult.

[Mook]

They can scare him a little bit. Yeah, Kawhi can get going.

[D.J. Wells]

I guess. You get playoffs.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Kawhi look like he looked last night.

[D.J. Wells]

We be I on a four Game win streak right now.

[Bishop Hendricks]

James Harden still cold.

[D.J. Wells]

Hey, come on.

[Bishop Hendricks]

He hit Mobley with that.

[Mook]

I actually don't know if they want that. They might not want that, bro.

[D.J. Wells]

And what's crazy, too many vets, bro. They had two game winning in the sixth spot.

[Bishop Hendricks]

James Harden, man, he's so good at basketball.

[D.J. Wells]

And they got Big Zoo to deal with that OKC team.

[Bishop Hendricks]

I feel like James Harden is in shape all the way. Really, too.

[Mook]

He never in shape no more. He still be killing, bro.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Yeah, like, his knees hurt. Like, they hurting a little bit. And he still just nasty, bro.

[J. Edgar Hoover]

My boy be getting that bitch up.

[Bishop Hendricks]

He be missing now, but.

[D.J. Wells]

And Bojanovic hooked out yesterday.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Perfect. Oh, no. Let's go back to our combo. You remember when I said.

[D.J. Wells]

I said, no, no, no.

[Bishop Hendricks]

You remember? I was like, they got bogey. And he was like, what? The bogey.

[J. Edgar Hoover]

You remember?

[Mook]

That's a great.

[Bishop Hendricks]

I was like, bogey.

[D.J. Wells]

That's because he was disrespectful.

[J. Edgar Hoover]

What you say about Louisville's championship, everyone?

[D.J. Wells]

Hey, don't compare him to a championship organization. That's disrespect. We more mps. And shout out to Nick Baton. Still getting run.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Yeah, that's crazy.

[D.J. Wells]

Patty Mills, dnp. But he's still in the league. I seen Corey Joseph the other day. Shout out to the old heads, getting bags.

[J. Edgar Hoover]

Good guys, man.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Good guys for sure.

[D.J. Wells]

All right. Does it say much about the Cavs?

[J. Edgar Hoover]

Yeah, we better than them.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Yeah.

[D.J. Wells]

Right. Here we go.

[Bishop Hendricks]

What it do say, though, is, like I said earlier in a week in previous shows, if they don't combine for 50 points, it's gonna be a tough game.

[J. Edgar Hoover]

Yeah, you spoke on that first for sure.

[D.J. Wells]

Yeah, That's a lot.

[Mook]

That's not a good sign then. Y'all gotta get 50 every night.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Yeah, we're gonna win in the playoffs. Donovan Mitchell and old buddy got a Darius Garland. Gotta combine for 50 plus.

[Mook]

Cause Darius Garland will go out there.

[Bishop Hendricks]

And get you 12, I'm saying.

[D.J. Wells]

Yeah.

[Bishop Hendricks]

And that's when they gonna lose. If they don't combine for 50, it's gonna be a rough one.

[D.J. Wells]

Because in the playoffs, you know what I'm saying? The road players, they don't always be as good as they are in the regular season. So if you out here banking on Todd Jerome, you should have prom.

[J. Edgar Hoover]

Good thing about the Cavs, though, they out east, so they cool. They straight.

[D.J. Wells]

They gotta play somebody second round, bro.

[J. Edgar Hoover]

I mean. Yeah, but I'm saying the first round, hopefully they, you know.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Yeah, we ain't worried about the first round. With them, we worry about that. Second.

[D.J. Wells]

Yeah. When they get to that Knicks or Celtic situation or Bucks, it could get ugly.

[J. Edgar Hoover]

I think the Cavs can beat the Knicks.

[Mook]

They beat the Knicks?

[D.J. Wells]

Think so.

[J. Edgar Hoover]

Yeah.

[Bishop Hendricks]

They got to combine with 20, 20, 50 points. They going.

[J. Edgar Hoover]

I really agree with Mook on that.

[D.J. Wells]

Jalen Brunson is coming back.

[Bishop Hendricks]

They got to get 25 a piece. It's the best thing that ever happened to Jalen Brunson. Now you gotta. Gotta sit out.

[Mook]

Yeah, he needs some rest.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Yep.

[D.J. Wells]

Yeah.

[Mook]

Cause why do Tibs refuse to give people rest?

[Bishop Hendricks]

He really do, though. If you go look at their minutes, they don't play a lot. They just don't miss games.

[Mook]

Bridges is complaining. He gotta be playing too much. He's complaining.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Cause he don't ever miss games.

[Mook]

I'd be like, bro, I need. I have not missed a game my whole career. I need.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Yeah, that's him. I mean, most people, he didn't play 800 games in a row. I don't know how many games he played. He didn't play like 500 games in a row or something like that.

[J. Edgar Hoover]

Damn.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Like, you're wilding.

[D.J. Wells]

Yeah, you some pco.

[Mook]

Yeah.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Yeah, you're wilding. It's not.

[Mook]

Tibbs fake an injury.

[D.J. Wells]

So if you gonna hamstring, that's cool.

[Bishop Hendricks]

If you wanna play 500 games in a row and your average minutes is 36 minutes a game. Yeah. You probably are tired.

[J. Edgar Hoover]

Yeah. Cause you locked in your bag. You straight. I don't sit down.

[Bishop Hendricks]

He wanna have a record for most games played. I ain't mad at him. Cause that's what you supposed to play. They pay you to play.

[Mook]

But he don't miss no games.

[Bishop Hendricks]

He don't miss no game. Yeah.

[J. Edgar Hoover]

Cause if you gonna start complaining, then, like, just sit down, my nigga, because you can. And it's like, he's never missed the game.

[Mook]

He has never missed the game.

[D.J. Wells]

Hey, did you see Tim's, though, in the interview? He said. Oh, we did not have a conversation. He said he was flipj.

[Bishop Hendricks]

What year is this now?

[J. Edgar Hoover]

And why would Tibbs ever say, sit down, bro. That ain't his job. Yeah, he trying to win. You one of my best players, bro. Yeah.

[Mook]

I don't care if you die.

[J. Edgar Hoover]

I love that you want to hoop.

[D.J. Wells]

Nacho said it. Hey, Tibbs say, hey, I'm trying to win every game.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Every game.

[J. Edgar Hoover]

Just count. All you got to do is count over there.

[D.J. Wells]

Carry the one.

[J. Edgar Hoover]

Man. You could have counted the years.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Facts is that hard to find where.

[J. Edgar Hoover]

You'Re here on My soul. I ain't going to tell you how to do your job. I mean, you had it. Just all you got to look up.

[Bishop Hendricks]

M. Bridges stats and then we just count Michel Bridges. All right.

[J. Edgar Hoover]

There you go, King.

[Bishop Hendricks]

That boy ain't missed a game in seven years.

[Mook]

Yeah, that's crazy. That's a lot of games, bro.

[J. Edgar Hoover]

Yeah, bro.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Yeah, Yeah. I bet you are tired.

[Mook]

That's too much basket.

[D.J. Wells]

Then they sent him to tips. And boy, you ain't gonna never get no rest.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Yeah, but he only played 36 minutes. What's his average?

[J. Edgar Hoover]

What minutes he play that look like I said 41.

[Bishop Hendricks]

He played what? What's his average?

[Mook]

32.

[Bishop Hendricks]

That's it. Like 32 minutes a game, bro. I wish.

[Mook]

They definitely say 32.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Damn.

[J. Edgar Hoover]

I don't know, bro. I wouldn't complain when you can just ask.

[Bishop Hendricks]

They complain about 32.

[Mook]

That said put me down to 24.

[D.J. Wells]

32 is regular. It's gotta be more than that.

[J. Edgar Hoover]

Nah, 24. You only playing the half, bro. I'm giving you that Might be his dealer.

Whatever. Right now they have. They have 40, right? They can't get to five without a crazy win streak. And I don't see the Grizzlies losing.

[J. Edgar Hoover]

That's not a bad take.

[Mook]

I think they can get it done.

[D.J. Wells]

If they get to the seventh seed, I think they can beat the Rockets because they just young and inexperienced. I don't know if they can beat the Nuggets because they got Yoke.

[Mook]

Yeah, but. Yeah, they got Steph Curry, brother.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Steph. Steph tired, though.

[Mook]

That's why he rested, baby. We be ready.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Steph said he tired, boss.

[D.J. Wells]

We be ready.

[Mook]

Butler, hold it down.

[Bishop Hendricks]

He say I'm tired, boss.

[D.J. Wells]

Too damn bad.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Jimmy ain't tired. Jimmy said I have to use. Oh, yeah.

[D.J. Wells]

He been on PTO all year for sure.

[Mook]

He is ready for this moment.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Yeah, he good.

[D.J. Wells]

For sure. All right, get well. Soon be here. Who needs some encouragement this morning?

[J. Edgar Hoover]

Evan Mobley.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Boy, he was on that island.

[D.J. Wells]

He get lonely on that island, brother.

[Bishop Hendricks]

What was worse? That. Or what's the boy that got drafted number four by the Timberwolves that failed? Wesley Johnson. Oh, Wesley.

[D.J. Wells]

Wesley Johnson.

[Bishop Hendricks]

I think this works right here because Evan Mobley, known as a defender.

[D.J. Wells]

Bow, Bow. Old school Bow.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Look at it. He just.

[Mook]

Hey, he looked like a child.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Yeah, he just quit. He. Look, he quit.

[D.J. Wells]

He said, this nigga got four counters, bro. Just go get a bucket. Hey, hey, hey.

[Mook]

Don't be like a kid right there.

[D.J. Wells]

And you hooping in my old shoes, nigga. That's the fire part. I got on my new shoes, got on my old ones, and I cooked you.

[J. Edgar Hoover]

Damn.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Now, look at. Look at James, though, when he make the layup, huh? Come back. Huh? Huh? Watch what you do. Oh, my God. No. What? Now you gotta look when you start running.

[D.J. Wells]

Donovan Mitchell should be on Goodwill soon, too, for having two different types of shoes all at the same time. Even though you have your own signature shoe, that's nasty work as well.

[Mook]

Come here.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Hey. That's hard.

[Mook]

So cold.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Yeah, you go.

[D.J. Wells]

One of the best to ever do it. Tig, who you got corners lose by?

[Bishop Hendricks]

30 for the 12th time in 15 games. Corners stink, bro.

[D.J. Wells]

Not even the whip. I mean, the Wizards had a crazy losing streak, but they ain't even have a step like that where they got 30 ball 12 in the last 15, bro.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Come on, Bro, you guys like, Charles Lee is my. Charlie is my guy, bro. I hate y'all going through that, but I told y'all this maybe two weeks ago. So the Hornets be getting murdered.

[J. Edgar Hoover]

They do. We saw that, though. They lost about 40, 52, 35.

[D.J. Wells]

Slaughtered, bro.

[J. Edgar Hoover]

So they're purposely taken, bro. Yeah, bro.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Look at that score. 130 to 88.

[J. Edgar Hoover]

And that was to the Blazers. We better than them.

[D.J. Wells]

Get 50 ball by the BL.

[Bishop Hendricks]

[J. Edgar Hoover]

Yeah, y'all being messy.

[Mook]
