Good morning. Happy Friday. It's 5:20 in the morning. Your favorite sports show. Here to keep you up to date and everything in the sports world related, especially basketball. I'm your host. My name is D.J. wells, joined this wonderful morning by my two brothers to my left, Bishop Pend. To my right, my brother T. Fellas, good morning. How y'all doing?
Speaker E
What's happening? Nasty selling, bro.
Speaker C
Look at Mike.
D.J. Wells
Send your thoughts and prayers to Freaky Mike, man, they've been going through since he got on the airplane.
Speaker E
Them shoes is crazy.
D.J. Wells
Oh yeah, my boy came out the house with the Hush Puppy Supremes on.
Speaker C
Boy look crazy, this boy.
Speaker E
That's a. That's a rough life, boy. Boy, I thought Adderall. When you take Adderall, it just heal everything.
Speaker C
And we gotta. We gotta. Hopefully. We got a firepot tomorrow. Get your life together.
Speaker E
Yeah, bro. And you keep coughing in that cold, bro. Wash that, bro.
Speaker C
Filthy.
D.J. Wells
Yeah. Anyway, diet starts Monday. They definitely did not want you sponsoring them. That jacket right now, man. Said to gofundme up for Freaky Mike, man.
Speaker C
Super chat.
D.J. Wells
Send him some money so he can.
Speaker C
Get some orange and whatever Bobby Portis took to.
Speaker E
Yeah, we. We sorry, Sierra. We know you pour champagne on Freaky Mike every Friday.
D.J. Wells
Champagne Friday is canceled for the foreseeable future.
Speaker E
Chris Smith.
D.J. Wells
The Bobby Portis is crazy. Let's start there. Damn, man. BP suspended 25 games for a banned substance, man.
Speaker C
I told him he cannot take. I ain't gonna do that to y'all. I know we got sponsorship don't do.
Speaker E
Bp, but I don't know what's going on. You feel me? The niggas that I do know that take drugs, they got banned for life. So this must be on a lighter scale.
Speaker C
Nah, he.
Speaker E
Somebody accidentally. Yeah, switched.
Speaker C
He said he asked for his phone boy for a painkiller, which is Tordol, and it was named something else that sound like Toradol. And he took it, and it was on the banned substance list.
Speaker E
Damn.
Speaker C
Yeah, that's a tough break for Milwaukee. Cause you losing arguably one of your six man of the year candidates for 25 games going down this stretch. It's gonna be a tough loss for them. But that opened up room for Kyle Kuzma and Kevin Porter Jr. That's why the move they made at the trade deadline were huge. Cause getting Kyle Kuzma and kpj, yeah, that's gonna solidify they bench for sure.
D.J. Wells
Yeah. Like you said, if they would not made them moves and then had this loss, that would have been Denver detrimental to them closing down the season. Because that stretch between 3, 4, 5, 6 in the east is like almost a couple games, so.
Speaker C
Yeah, so shout out to John Horse for making that move right there, because that might save y'all season.
D.J. Wells
Yeah, for sure, man. Before we get to Wimy and Paul, shout out to Uncle Rick Patino, man. He'd been dropping bars on the Internet these last couple of weeks. Man 1 I wanted to ask you about as a high school coach, he basically said, like, you know, we having a great year, but we got a lot of good guys leaving this program, and I gotta replace these guys. I can't replace them with high school players.
Speaker C
Yeah.
D.J. Wells
How does that play into, like, the mindset of you coaching kids, letting them know, all right, the game is different now. Y'all better quit acting like your only competition is in this locker room.
Speaker C
I'm so glad Luke put this in the joint. Lou put this right.
D.J. Wells
You did shout out to Lou, I'm sure.
Speaker C
Okay, yeah, Lou did that. Cause we talked about this in practice, right? And this is a game changer. When you hear a coach like Rick Pitino, and we had a pipeline of Rick Pitino. My dad played for Rick Pitino. Right. So obviously, we gonna reach out to him and his staff. You see some of the players that we got on our team. But for him to say that, that lets you know, as a high school kid, like, my job is always on the line as a coach. And we pay you guys to play. If you not delivering, I gotta get rid of you. Cause they gonna get rid of me. Look at Indiana Woody. He paying these kids all this money. They not delivering. Everybody want Woody head. Get him outta here. We got us paying these kids in.
D.J. Wells
They trash number one that they paid the offseason in IO.
Speaker C
Yeah. So everybody want them to get out of here. So as a high school kid, you gotta understand, now you competing against people that's been in college for two or three years, that don't get to play at a high level, or they just want to transfer and get more money. Then you also competing against juco kids who actually get four years now after they leave juco, just like you out of high school. So now you had an uphill battle against grown men. So if you ain't putting in the work in high school, you damn near gonna get missed a boat. Cause these D2 kids, too, are going to school and they getting better and they grown men. So if I got a D2 kid that been in school for two years and they got better, and I got a high school kid who I can get, I'm like, shit, he already been in college for two years. His body developed. I don't gotta worry about that immature stuff. He know how to play the game. Let me get this D2 kid who's been playing well, who's been averaging 20 at the D2 level. He can come help me right now. I don't gotta develop him or nothing. So that's why I tell the kids at pike, if you find a college that fall in love with you as a sophomore, junior, senior, and they offer you a scholarship, you might need to really tap in instead of waiting and saying, oh, all these offers gonna come to me. I'm like, okay, if you a five star, them are only people getting them offers like that, a five star elite level, that they feel they can come help them immediately because they paying you money. Auto. Shaky. Three, four. Three star, four star. It ain't gonna be the same, man. You're gonna be waiting, waiting and waiting. And then it might get a little spooky. So if you find a school that love you and you love that school, man, you might want to tap in.
Speaker E
Yeah.
D.J. Wells
T dropping gospel this morning and like.
Speaker C
Man, that shit getting spooky for these kids, man.
D.J. Wells
And on the flip side of it, those juco kids, those Division 2, Division 3 school kids, them games only get better. Cause now listen, we always had the kids. I want to go D1 now, that might be the route now, honestly. Because that's giving yourself an advantage if you ain't all the way there.
Speaker C
Yeah, facts. And juco might be definitely the move. Cause you can go there for two years, a year or two and still got four years. Yeah.
D.J. Wells
Go lock in and get that nil from the school for four years now, man.
Speaker C
And you developed your game. You older, you more seasoned. And that's what coaches want. They want kids that they can plug and play right now. They don't need no developing. So that's why, once again, you high school kids, if you find a school that loves you and they want to offer you a scholarship out of high school, you gotta tap in.
Speaker E
Yeah, I'm signing junior year.
Speaker C
Yeah.
Speaker E
Or committed.
Speaker C
Yeah. You know what I mean? Because it's gonna get spooky and I hate that. Because your goal was to go to college after high school. Right. Like I play high school basketball, I go to college. But now that guys can transfer whenever they want money, all this stuff, it's just tough for high school kids.
D.J. Wells
But most definitely, but also a benefit too, is some of those kids who go to juco route and then have that success in D1.
Speaker C
Yeah.
D.J. Wells
Now you got a chance to make money. If you're not going to the gym, you go kill, get an IL deal, make half a ticket, maybe a meal if you're lucky enough. And, you know, then you start your overseas career. A lot of these kids was coming out of college, just having to figure it out. So it's definitely pros and cons to situation.
Speaker C
It's definitely pros and cons. I mean, like a juco kid who just was on a. On a bad path. You can change your life for two years, go to Juco, get your life together and then you can go play at a high level D1.
Speaker E
Yeah.
Speaker C
And really change your life. So it's. It's pros and cons to everything. But shout out to uncle Rick for putting that out there because now I put everybody on alert. Yeah.
D.J. Wells
And what he doing up there is like, man, it's crazy, bro.
Speaker C
Man, the way he turned around that program, you only could understand. And then like, even on the football side, if you hear what Deion Sanders said, he said, I don't even use my money for to fly. You know, he got 200,000 a year for the private flights to go recruit. He was like, what I need that for? I ain't going to recruit. I'm going straight to the portal. I ain't going see you high school kids and you hear your favorite coat. Rick Patino, legendary coach Deion Sanders, one of our favorite coaches.
D.J. Wells
Come on, bro.
Speaker C
I ain't wasting my time recruiting you high school kids. Y'all can't help me right away. My job on the line every year.
Speaker E
Yeah. So there's a bunch of 23, 24 year olds that I can go snag.
Speaker C
I'm gonna get you.
Speaker E
I'm gonna wait. Get you when you 21. King.
Speaker C
Yeah.
D.J. Wells
Four years of eligibility.
Speaker C
I can go get somebody.
Speaker E
That is crazy though.
Speaker C
Think about it. I'm gonna go get somebody from Alabama. Who was a second stringer at Alabama. He was second string. He got in, he made some plays. He ain't get to play. Dude coming back, He a sophomore, 22, he arting on a plaque. Let me get him. I ain't gotta go get that 18 year old that still live with his.
Speaker E
Mom that made that fake school was ahead of his time.
D.J. Wells
Bishop Sycamore.
Speaker E
Bishop Sycamore was ahead of they time.
Speaker C
He knew the real Di. Facts, bro.
Speaker E
That's crazy, bro. I couldn't imagine being 18 and football is different than hoop. Yeah, you 18 going to a school and it's a team you play Colorado, everybody 21 and up, bro.
Speaker C
Facts.
Speaker E
You damn near dude that's damn near going against NFL players at that point.
Speaker C
I've been lifting for three years straight at the college level. I done seen every defense. You fresh out of pike weight room. You're cooked.
D.J. Wells
You're a Christmas for sure, man. And last but not least, man, sadly, some news about Wimy man out for the season with a blood clot. Please, prayers up for him. Give us some of that. We have seen these things go many different ways. Happily that they caught it. Hopefully he Gets the treatment he deserves, but, yeah, he will be out for a while.
Speaker E
Man, that ain't slick, though. I mean, get well soon, but, yeah.
D.J. Wells
You think they trying to catch some?
Speaker E
I said, ah, this is the Timmy D effect. Okay. See what y'all did?
Speaker C
They're not gonna get the first pick, though, because they got De'Aaron Fox and they winning.
D.J. Wells
Yeah, they.
Speaker C
They was fun to watch, dear. Fox is raw.
Speaker E
Yeah.
Speaker C
I ain't gonna lie. He Cole. I know I always say everybody Cole. But he raw. Like, when I watch him play, you see it. Like, man, he just got it.
D.J. Wells
Now, if we see De'Aaron Fox sit down in the next three to four.
Speaker C
Games, then we know then the fix is in.
D.J. Wells
Yeah. If he stops playing basketball at the beginning of March. Yeah, we know what time it is.
Speaker C
But you know what? I wouldn't be mad if. If the Spiders got Ace Bailey and taught him how to play. That's nice.
Speaker E
Or if you got Ace Bailey and trading.
D.J. Wells
Hey, chill out.
Speaker E
We don't need that type of energy yet.
Speaker C
Yes, they do, bro. Think if you got Ace Bailey, you teach him how to play. Keep CP Around. Cause you can tell how better like Castle got since he been around C.P.
Speaker E
True.
Speaker C
And I ain't. You know, I ain't. No. I ain't trying to glaze pause.
D.J. Wells
But, like, yeah, the effect is real.
Speaker C
Yeah. CP Made him a better player when I first seen him, I'm like, damn, man, he getting better and better. We was already fans, but now you can see the game slowed down. It's looking easy for him now. Like, 15, 16 off the bench is light for him. Like, I know he gonna get that.
Speaker E
Yeah.
Speaker C
And you can start seeing him take that corner now. You put him. Fox, Ace Bailey, Wimby, and you can go whoever you want. Sochan, whatever his name is. All them. Yeah, they got a nice squad. Vassal, you know? See, that's when you can trade. That's a guy you can trade.
D.J. Wells
He gonna have to be the piece and move on Showcase.
Speaker C
And you can get another. Like core, like veteran. Cause Vasile good.
Speaker E
But if you had the opportunity to pick him or Cooper. Are you still taking Ace?
Speaker C
Oh, no, I'm no fool. I'm capturing the flag.
D.J. Wells
How you feel about Dylan Harper in this situation?
Speaker C
I don't like him over there. They got. They already got Fox and Castle. I don't like it. Keep him. Keep him. He need to go where he can.
D.J. Wells
Just have the ball to himself.
Speaker C
Yeah. Not to Utah. See, Dylan Harford need to go to the Wizards where they put the Ball in his hand, then you can start building around him.
D.J. Wells
Okay.
Speaker C
Put him with some savvy vets, keep Chris Middleton, get some better bigs.
Speaker E
He can have the John Wall effect.
Speaker C
Yeah. He can just hoop.
D.J. Wells
Okay.
Speaker E
Yeah. Cause him in Utah, man. Utah's I don't wish that for.
Speaker C
I pray he don't go to Utah.
D.J. Wells
Yeah.
Speaker C
I ain't mad at him in New Orleans either, though.
Speaker E
Damn, Boogie moving up in that motherfucker draft.
D.J. Wells
Cause he been hooping.
Speaker C
He hurt. He hurt.
Speaker E
He. He moving up. That's. That's a. I don't know who need him up there. I'm just saying. I don't. I don't know who needs him up there in that top six. All them.
Speaker C
No, no, no.
Speaker E
Everybody got point guards.
Speaker C
You know who Nasty in this draft. I mean, people talk about him, but we don't talk about him. Tre Johnson from.
D.J. Wells
Trey Johnson got Texas.
Speaker C
Oh, my goodness. He probably the best scorer in the world.
Speaker E
I've only seen two games. I ain't got the.
Speaker C
I think he scored a ball better than Ace Bailey. This is just me about when I watch him play, I say, you think.
Speaker E
He scored better or he just more efficient?
Speaker C
No, no, no. He scored that ball, man. Go look at they stats. I mean, Ace Bailey is nasty. Ace Bailey is taller. Yeah, he like six, nine, whatever it is. Yeah, dude, a pure too.
Speaker E
No facts.
Speaker C
He scored that ball. He's.
Speaker E
He Bradley Bill. But I only only seen like a couple games from him, though.
Speaker C
I was watching him. A couple red vibes.
Speaker E
Yeah.
Speaker C
What are you averaging?
Speaker E
I like him, but I ain't got enough.
Speaker C
20.
Speaker E
Yeah.
Speaker C
That'S nice, bro. What a team.
D.J. Wells
What?
Speaker C
On a team with not a bunch of.
D.J. Wells
Got ace Bailey, baby.
Speaker C
18, I'm telling you. But that seven boards is solid. 46. He more efficient.
Speaker E
Yeah.
D.J. Wells
And what's crazy is no disrespect, with a little bit more effort, that seven boards could be 10.
Speaker E
Trey shoot more jumpers, though. It's different. It. We see the crazy. We see the crazy highlights, bro.
D.J. Wells
The Ace, baby.
Speaker E
But Ace go to the cup, bro.
Speaker C
He do.
Speaker E
He go to the Cup. I. With the highlight. I get it. But like.
Speaker C
Yeah, what I'm saying is Ace Bailey gonna be a. He gonna be like. I ain't saying he gonna be Kevin Durant, but you remember. You remember, like how we used to. Kevin Durant was so good in college. I know it's not gonna add up, but his effect. I'm trying to think of somebody who wasn't that good in college. We didn't see it maybe Andrew Wiggins, like, when we seen Wig in college, he had that one game, he went off for 40 against West Virginia or something like that. But we didn't see what we saw in high school. Yeah, he was like, damn, you remember when you seen Andrew Wiggins in high school? He like this nigga LeBron.
Speaker E
Yeah.
Speaker C
And then when he got to the league, it was a guaranteed 20. And you are still. That's gonna be Ace Bailey. Like, even though he averaging what, damn near 18, 19, he killing. But when he gets to the league, he gonna be a easy 20 points.
D.J. Wells
I want him to be on his Michael Porter Jr shit when he gets to the league. Just straight killing.
Speaker E
Nah, man, don't do that.
D.J. Wells
Nah, bro, you don't need to pass, bro. They pay you to shoot.
Speaker C
Yeah, he gonna average. He gonna come in the league his first year, he probably gonna average like 14. He gotta get a little straight that. I could see him being a 20 point scorer for sure, but I also can see him being Cam Reddish.
D.J. Wells
Damn, I do.
Speaker E
Damn, he play harder than Cam.
Speaker C
I'm not saying he don't, but this is the same thing we thought about Cam reddish1 when he left Duke. I'm like, he get to the league after he. The court gonna open up. He's six'eight he was.
Speaker E
He was supposed to have the Jason Tatum effect with the hot.
Speaker C
Where the guy he really.
Speaker E
He really was. You right about that, bro.
Speaker C
So it's like, I think he gonna be. I think he gonna average 20. I think he a great player, but it's two ways it can go.
D.J. Wells
We thought that he was gonna be the help for. For Trae Young down there. When I went to the conference spot, we thought, all right, next year he gonna be the same.
Speaker E
What?
Speaker C
We got cam at 10. Whatever we got, we got cam at 10. Oh, we lit.
D.J. Wells
Yeah.
Speaker C
And D Hunt, I thought we had. I was like, it's over.
D.J. Wells
Ways for the future.
Speaker C
Yeah, I was like, it's over.
D.J. Wells

Speaker C
But that's just more. I mean, I don't know. You talking about the finals of the in season tournament?
D.J. Wells
Yeah, like the championship game. But it has to me a little bit more than just the bread on.
Speaker C
I think they should make the all star team. All star game like baseball, home quarterbacks. Yeah. Whoever win the East. But then they like take away your season. Like being the number one team in the league or whatever. It don't really matter. You know what I mean? Yeah, but for sure, man, they play harder.

Smooth. Next game, man. Celtics took care of the Sixers yesterday. 124 to 104. Built to add situation for show. Payton Pritchard went crazy with 28. Had eight threes. JT got a triple double. JB had 26 and six. But, man, your boy Peyton Pritchard, you said he might get that six. Man of the year roll. 28 on eight threes.
Speaker E
He already locked it in.
Speaker C
Yeah, that's his. That's his to lose now. I mean, I'm so happy for that kid, man, to see. I know how hard he worked. He took my spot as a rookie. He was the reason I got traded. They, like, think Peyton fits the team a little better.
Speaker E
Yeah. Yeah.
Speaker C
I was like, yeah, he go shoot the three. I need the ball.
Speaker E
Yeah.
Speaker C
And he. He's. Man, he used to put unbelievable work. So to see what he's doing, I knew he was good. When I seen him as a rookie, I knew he was good. And to see him doing what he's doing now. He's so underpaid.
D.J. Wells
Yeah, they got him on the steel.
Speaker C
They got him on a steal. I get it. But he's so underpaid, eventually he's gonna get traded, and he's gonna get his chance to be a starter. But he's so underpaid right now.
D.J. Wells
Listen, man, we talked about everybody needing a break. The Celtics probably needed that just as bad as anybody else. Do we expect them to go ahead and make that big run going into the postseason?
Speaker C
Yeah. I seen how Jalen Brown was playing. He was talking so much trash to Tyrese Maxey.
D.J. Wells
Yeah.
Speaker C
I said, oh, they on something different. He caught alive and started yelling like, jaylen Brown is, like, slowly becoming one of my favorite players. When I played with jb, I always keep it real. I hated playing with jb. Cause he had tunnel vision. He was trying to score that. You know what I mean? He'd be open. He'd be like, kick it on fast breaks. But I understood what he was trying to do. He was trying to solidify that deal. He was trying to solidify himself as an all Star. And it was a competition between him and Tatum. To me, at that Time, you know, just trying to solidify themself as a team. As they grew, they got the max deals or whatever. Now you can see them. They a team now. Yeah, it's all good. We all eat and we all so superstars. We all gonna make all NBA. All that good stuff. And now he's starting to become one of my favorite people to watch. Cause he compete every day, every night, bro. He be out there playing hard as hell. And he guard the best player.
Speaker E
Told I ain't better than Donovan Mitchell, bro.
Speaker C
And I. When I watch, I ain't mad at you. At first, I was mad at you.
Speaker E
You was?
Speaker C
But as I keep watching JB, man, I need some of them seven, seven, seven sevens, or whatever they call. What's that called?
D.J. Wells
Seven, seven, 41.
Speaker C
I need 741. I was saying that because sevens is good numbers.
D.J. Wells
Let's get it right. I want. It's a black brand I'm gonna respect.
Speaker C
Yeah, what is it? Seven, four ones.
D.J. Wells
He went to Leanings.
Speaker E
Oh, my gosh, bro.
Speaker C
Get this. Get him some cough Sy.
D.J. Wells
We gotta get Mike. If you got the plug.
Speaker C
This is seven mic.
Speaker E
Jb.
Speaker C
Let me look him up.
D.J. Wells
We just gave up.
Speaker E
You a true guard. Underappreciated, disrespected a lot in the media space.
D.J. Wells
There we go, 741. There we go.
Speaker C
741. Like I'm. When they come on, they on sale. I'm gonna buy a pair of 741s.
Speaker E
What about them? Retail?
D.J. Wells
Yeah, I will tap in, Shaw. I'm always down with a BlackBerry.
Speaker E
He official, bro. I don't know.
Speaker C
I rock with him. He become one of my favorite players to watch. And I see other guys wearing the shoes. I see Peyton Pritchard hooping them. What's the guy call him? Bud, is it? Bud from Washington? What's his name?
D.J. Wells
Bud Carrington.
Speaker C
Yeah, he was wearing them. So it's dope to see he. He doing it his way. But why he play on the court? I'm a fan.
D.J. Wells
Yeah, you gotta respect it, too. What he did off the court. Like you said, going against Nike, making his own shoe. That's fire. Then the whole agent situation, only thing saluted it was a preference about basketball. But when you making moves like that, you gotta salute it for sure. Sixers. What the hell they gonna do?
Speaker C
Nothing.
D.J. Wells
Are they just gonna blow that team up in the offseason?
Speaker C
Mess around, get Cooper flag?
D.J. Wells
They don't deserve it.
Speaker E
Y'all gonna be shitty, bro.
Speaker C
They be getting boozed so hard, y'all gonna be shitty. I had to turn the TV down. Cause they just booed the whole time. I can't even hear the commentators.
D.J. Wells
Yeah, they're not happy with this team at all.
Speaker E
I don't play either, Tyrese. I hate how they play Sherry McCain. I'm something I like.
Speaker C
I used to like smart. Nick Nurse.
D.J. Wells
Yeah.
Speaker C
When he was with the Toronto, it was because of they personnel. They had less. And he could do, you know, all these crazy things and make them look good. Like he had. I mean, Van Vliet is nice, but, you know, he had him playing well. He had all these guys.
Speaker E
No divas.
Speaker C
Yeah, no divas. Nobody we knew. So it kind of fit. Like they center. Who was they center at that time?
D.J. Wells
That was a qua. It wasn't Jacob Holder, was it? I can't remember.
Speaker C
I don't remember. But they had. Obviously, they didn't play through their center. They played through their guards. And now that they got to play through Joel Embiid, it just don't look the same. Marcus hall was that big then. Yeah, Marcus hall was in Toronto on him.
D.J. Wells
He was for sure.
Speaker C
But they didn't play through the big. They played through Kawhi Van Fleet, Kyle Lowry. So it just looked his offense and all that stuff looked. Yeah, Pascal, it looked different now. Like, I don't like it.
Speaker E
He need to just revamp. Get the young guys in there. Cooper get there or even Ace. They'll be all right.
D.J. Wells
Do you move and be if you can.
Speaker E
Yeah, bro, but they can't.
Speaker C
Yes, you can't. But.
Speaker E
Yeah, but yeah. Movie if you.
D.J. Wells
Okay, y'all. Y'all think anybody take your own bit Will, bro.
Speaker E
He just mean too much to the team, really. Trading away MVP when the healthy come back, sit out 40 games, come back and get 50.
Speaker C
I've seen worse, though. All right.
D.J. Wells
We just ain't Luca yet.
Speaker C
Yeah, it's time. I ain't gonna lie. If the Sixers won, it's time to start them back. It's time to move on.
Speaker E
I mean, Luca should have been like a.
Speaker C
All right, well, it Even the way he like. Joel Embiid is one of the best basketball players to ever grace this planet Earth. Right? But the way he plays, you can move on from him. Like, right now, it ain't the same.
Speaker E
Only thing I hate about him, he really a ball stopper. He a ball stopper. But they to trade that away, bro. At least Dallas got A.D. yeah, you can get. You can't trade this nigga just for.
Speaker C
You gonna get something. Yeah.
D.J. Wells
All they Gonna say it won't be no second round.
Speaker E
I need precious Rebusha like I need heavy.
Speaker C
You gonna get. You gonna get picked now you can get.
Speaker E
Don't send me no Miley Cyrus. My.
Speaker C
Nah, you can get a couple guys for. You can send them out to Phoenix.
Speaker E
And you sending Brad Bill and who else would he.
Speaker C
I'm just saying you can get. I'm just saying people who got players that can go.
D.J. Wells
You can.
Speaker C
You can trade them for some crazy thing is.
Speaker E
I think if he goes somewhere else then they gonna play a lot good.
Speaker C
As long as he in Philly. He not gonna do that.
D.J. Wells
Yeah, that's cool for him because he's not gonna play there.
Speaker E
They've been babying him way too long. Damn. Since Ro year.
D.J. Wells
Trust the process, baby. For sure.
Speaker C
He brought an MVP there. But it just. The way they play. They can't win a championship. The way they game look. It don't. Yeah.
D.J. Wells
Get well soon, man. For sure. The Spur secured the sun yesterday. The first game without Wimy. 120 to 109. Dear Fox, like you said, murder. 26, 9 and 7. KD hooped out with 22. Book had 17 and Brad Bill had 19 and 9. Shout out to Chris Paul, man. Became number two in all time. Steals yesterday. That game. Your Sons, man. Losing the game without Wimby. I mean, we know we talk about the spurs getting better, but come on, man. What's up?
Speaker C
Sons are. They're awful to watch too.
Speaker E
Yeah, they just not clicking, bro. The weed is mid.
D.J. Wells
The quality went down.
Speaker C
They gotta just get. They gotta start over. Like it's just a bad.
Speaker E
That's damn near. This might be like the worst trio ever, bro.
Speaker C
They ruined.
D.J. Wells
I ain't gonna lie.
Speaker C
They ruined their team when they traded for kd. And KD is cold. He won the greatest ever. But they just had a better synergy, like a better energy around. Like when it was Cam and Mikel. Mikel, bro, they was balling us.
Speaker E
That's true.
Speaker C
Suns was fired. They made to the chip Aiden, Aiden, all them. They could have traded Aiden or whatever they want to do. Got rid of Aiden and put a. Brought somebody else in. But they should have never gave up them wings. Cause it let D Book be D Book. Like ain't no way we see D book with 17 points. No, D book used to get 60 and shit.
Speaker E
Yeah, he having real regular games now.
D.J. Wells
And it's just because he being a team player. It's like they kind of bought into a system. Everybody just all right.
Speaker C
Yeah. And then they used to get premium point guards. Even though when Ricky Rubio was there, he was like a point guard. Like, I get you the ball, blah, blah, blah. Then CP came. Super leader turned it up. Ain't nothing against Tyus Jones. He just in over his head. Like, I love Tyus. I know that's my dog, but you gotta. You can't be yourself. You gotta get Brad Bill the ball, Book the ball. Kd the ball.
Speaker E
Yeah. You just out there to make fives.
D.J. Wells
And you can't fix this.
Speaker C
You just trying to hit the Open 3, man. When you get a chance.
Speaker E
Yeah.
Speaker C
When that pitch go, you can't be yourself, man. Stressful basketball, it's too much, bro.
Speaker E
It's the worst trio ever.
Speaker C
And Coach Bud can't even coach this. Then you got Bobo, he can hoop. You don't know what to do with him.
D.J. Wells
But they so happy to get rid of Nerd. Cause Nurk was messing up the locker room.
Speaker C
Yeah, bro, they didn't really Nerd they got. It's just not a good blend.
D.J. Wells
The vibes are not there.
Speaker C
Nah, it ain't a good blend. You need to. Obviously you can't trade D Book, but you can't trade Brad Bill without my permission. Yeah. Cause he got the keys to the. You know what I mean? Just a bad.
Speaker E
Throw the sons away.
Speaker C
It's a bad fit.
Speaker E
Come on.
D.J. Wells
For sure, man. Hey, man. De'airra Fox scored 11 straight the final three minutes of the game, man. One of the best clutch players in the NBA for sure. That's crazy, man, that we about to really have a super team with him. Wimby. And another star coming soon, bro. They gonna get another star. San Antonio.
Speaker C
I just pray Wimby can come back healthy. And I hope it ain't no Chris Bosh situation where he gotta, you know, be done or some shit like that. That hurt my heart that Chris Bosh had to sit out like that.
Speaker E
So hopefully they get that blood clot up out of there.
D.J. Wells
Especially like Brandon Ingram situation. He had to ease it out too. Pause. But you know what I'm saying, He's back healthy as well. So prayers are for women. That's a serious, serious situation beyond basketball for sure, man.
Speaker E
Hold on. Go to that back. This is the steals.
D.J. Wells
Yeah.
Speaker E
Chris Paul got two yesterday him, Jordan is four. I didn't know that.
Speaker C
Yeah. Black cat. Look at John Stockton, though.
Speaker E
That's not real.
D.J. Wells
Yeah, that's not real.
Speaker E
CP, you're number one.
D.J. Wells
CP, you're extra like 500. 600. Yeah. Half that.
Speaker E
CP, you're number one.
Speaker C
So we just gonna egg and John.
Speaker E
Stockton out there him, bro. He used to be my favorite white boy, but he was working with the feds, bro. He was working with the feds, bro. To have your stats.
Speaker C
Not working with the fans.
Speaker E
He was, bro.
Speaker C
He's against almost.
D.J. Wells
I was gonna say now one thing about him.
Speaker E
Get his stats. Nah, y'all can't tell me no different. No way. You get yourself.
D.J. Wells
No, that's fraudulent. I'm not disagreeing. I'm saying, well, he is on the real life. He is not with the fish.
Speaker E
John stocks didn't want to deal.
D.J. Wells
Now John Stockton said, I'm not with that Kobe vaccine. And they said, oh, really? He. They found his radical stuff. He. They have not rocked with him ever.
Speaker C
Since you have not seen him. His stats and everything been popping up.
D.J. Wells
We didn't hear none of that about his stats being messed up or jank.
Speaker E
Don't put sweater.
Speaker C
I don't know what he is, but we're gonna leave John out of this with John.
Speaker E
Hey, did I tell you? I see that in real life, bro. He's huge, bro.
Speaker C
He tall, he bigger. He literally taller than me.
Speaker E
Yeah, bro.
Speaker C
That's how I feel about chest huge, bro.
D.J. Wells
Nah, bro. Go look at them old dream team, bro. He ain't a little white, bro.
Speaker C
That's how I felt about Steve Nash. I just knew Steve Nash. Some little 510 white dude dribbling around. I walked up to 64.
Speaker E
What the Steve Nash?
Speaker C
Yeah.
Speaker E
Damn.
Speaker C
I'm looking at him like, damn, he ain't skinny. He like my size.
Speaker E
Oh, I thought I was about to.
Speaker C
Post him up, and he's looking at.
D.J. Wells
Me like, wait, please find the clip of Jeff posting. No, no, I did.
Speaker C
I thought I was. I thought I was until I walked up to him like, you ain't about to post that. He found the post you up like. And Jason kid. Like Jason kid biggest.
Speaker E
What about Kyle Lowry?
Speaker C
He's short.
Speaker E
He real little.
Speaker C
He probably like 5 10, 5 11. But he's strong as like, you know, a strongest. Eric. Bless. Oh, God, bro. Yeah, bro. He should play football. I mean, obviously he's built like that.
Speaker E
Dog that you had.
Speaker C
Oh, my God. 3 XL Pitbull.
Speaker E
What was that dog that you had?
Speaker C
Gotti.
Speaker E
Gotti. That definitely built like Gotti.
Speaker C
Oh, God.
D.J. Wells
Hey, shout out to everybody. So best suit of all time. I don't want to be here. He's like, I'll send him off my girl trade the next day. Hey, you wanna get out of Phoenix? Retweet that for sure. The Bucks beat the Clippers yesterday, 116 to 110, man. I think the Bucks going on a little run, man.
Speaker E
Bro said that was a big loss for bp, But I still think they. They straight. You know, we talked to Dame at All Stars, so everybody on the same. You know what I mean? Same path.
Speaker C
They can plug in Kuzma for the loss of Bobby Porter. So it's straight. But also Damian is still Damian. Even though Damon didn't have the greatest game last night. They just got the ability to take over games.
Speaker E
Yeah.
Speaker C
And James Harden and them, they. They just on the road. It's a tough, tough place to play. Tough place to win. But I like. I like KPJ for them, man.
D.J. Wells
Brook Lopez getting 22, that's healthy too.
Speaker E
If he can get that. Not saying you get that every night, but they. Because Gianna's only way to say 24 minutes. So everybody was hooping yesterday.
Speaker C
After the.
D.J. Wells
Parentheses, but yeah, man, that's crazy.
Speaker C
If.
D.J. Wells
If Lopez can do that twice a series, it's gonna get spooky, bro. Do you think the court opened up having Kuz in there instead of BP like you said? I mean, giving Brooke a little bit more option to shoot?
Speaker C
Nah, Bobby can spread the floor too. Bobby's a. He can make three. He's a good three point shooter. It's the pace they play with. Okay, Like, Kuzma is a. I can get it off the rim, pause and push the tempo for sure. Like, I run the floor, I try to get easy lays. Not saying Bobby don't, but he just actually a better athlete than Bobby Porters. Yeah, that's it. KPJ is a better athlete than whoever else they had coming off the bench. They can make plays. They traded him for what, Boot camp? Marjon. KPJ can play point guard. He can score, he can facilitate. It's just a great pickup for them. They needed that.
D.J. Wells
All right, now there's a lot of pressure on the Bucks this offseason. What you think is a quote, unquote fail season for them? Do they have to get to the conference finals?
Speaker C
They have to get to the conference finals.
D.J. Wells
Okay.
Speaker C
If they don't get to the conference finals, it's a blow up.
D.J. Wells
It's a rebuild mode for sure.
Speaker C
Yeah, we gotta start thinking about something different.
D.J. Wells
Damn, it's the truth.
Speaker C
Cause you traded for Dame last year. We thought it was our time. Traded for Dame. Obviously Dame went through a lot in his personal life to move all that stuff that he had to do to get there. So he wasn't 100% himself now. Y'all done had a year. Boom. He, him and self this year. He's playing great. All star Giannis. All star. Everything going well. They don't make to the conference finals. It's like, what are we doing?
D.J. Wells
Yeah, I'm rolling with that for sure. Super chat question. I don't know how to say your name, but I'll spell it X, U, E, A, G. Random. But where do you rank 50 cent get rich or Die trying on your all time list?
Speaker C
That's kind. This is 520.
Speaker E
OK. And probably in the.
Speaker C
In my five 50 cent album.
Speaker E
In my five.
D.J. Wells
I don't know where to rank it, but I respect the out the album. That's fire.
Speaker C
It's top 10 for me.
D.J. Wells
Yeah. Still slap to this day.
Speaker C
It's probably like seven.
Speaker E
Damn. You can name six albums better than.
Speaker C
That personally that I like.
Speaker E
Okay.
Speaker C
I like Blueprint. I love Black Album. I love Thug Motivation. I love the Carter one.
Speaker E
Carter one better than Get Rich without Trying.
Speaker C
That's just me personally. I like the Carter one.
Speaker E
Okay. That first four on that is just.
Speaker C
It's pressure.
D.J. Wells
It's one of the best rap albums of all time.
Speaker C
Yeah, it's right there.
Speaker E
Yeah. No. Shout out. You like what?
Speaker C
I like Illmatic.
Speaker E
Nasiomatic in your top ten.
Speaker C
This is my top five.
Speaker E
Damn.
D.J. Wells
I'm at that for sure. All right, man, let's get some more games going through I with.
Speaker E
No, no, no, bro. I just. I had something to my throat.
Speaker C
What's up your top five?
D.J. Wells
Not me personally, but I respect it. It's a Fire album.
Speaker E
Chill, Mike. That's crazy.
Speaker C
That is crazy.
Speaker E
Y'all is childish. I just don't. Illmatic is cool, bro. Like, it's a Fire album.
Speaker C
Classic.
D.J. Wells
It's just not one of my favorites.
Speaker E
Yeah, I always played it when I was by myself.
Speaker C
Respect.
D.J. Wells
Moving on a couple games last night. Built to ass situation in Naptown. Basically beat the Grizzlies yesterday. 127, 113 shout out to Tyrese, hooped out 22 and 9 miles hooped as well. 1710 to 7. Justin Bang cooked yesterday with 22. Ja only had 12 yesterday for Ja Magic B Hawks.
Speaker E
114, 108.
Speaker C
You know what it is?
D.J. Wells
I like that. I like the energy.
Speaker C
Yeah.
D.J. Wells
It's just regular, you feel me?
Speaker C
Well, people be what people be messing up at bruh. They start that little BS trade rumor stuff. Like, oh, people think about trading jai in the off season. Like people still human.
Speaker E
Yeah.
Speaker C
That be affecting. Like damn. Who Said this, you know what I mean? Like, they think about Trey. Yeah.
D.J. Wells
I was gonna say, especially what happened, you know? Say his house was broken into and he was. Unfortunately, some things was missing when he came back. So on top of that type of personal situation, and now you hear rumors about you getting moved on.
Speaker C
Yeah. You be like, I damn near need to move about this motherfucker. Yeah, man. Robbing me. Y'all talking about trade me? Yeah. It's time for me to go. That's how your mind start going. Like, you shouldn't do that. It was over a million dollars worth of stuff.
D.J. Wells
Yeah.
Speaker E
What got there and cleaned up, boy.
D.J. Wells
And that's tough, man. Especially somebody who got his family around his kid. Like, that's a lot to think about.
Speaker C
See, and then when somebody. I ain't preaching this, but now when somebody try to protect themselves, now y'all see why you got. You know what I'm saying?
D.J. Wells
Yeah.
Speaker C
And now. Now. Yeah, now y'all see why. Yeah, that's why you got the lighter. You know what I'm saying?
Speaker E
Put a real blicky out the car. Now I just drive around Memphis with that out. All the way home. We just got that out for no reason.
D.J. Wells
It's my new logo, Pops.
Speaker E
You get the other side?
Speaker C
Nah, bro.
D.J. Wells
Doing a drop off for Daddy's Fire.
Speaker C
Nah, bro. What y'all own, bro? Nah, bro. I'm just saying, bro. Cause if they would have ran up there, obviously they planned it out. It was a planned robbery. They knew he was gone or whatever. But just imagine if somebody happened to be at the crib.
D.J. Wells
Yeah, that's a lot to wear in your head, too, man. Good win. Patriots, though. Dub's a dub. Magic beat the Hawks yesterday, 114 to 108. Van Carroll went crazy yesterday. 36, 10 and 5.
Speaker C
I think them boys can make a run, man. Yeah.
D.J. Wells
Ferran's 25, 7, but Trey Young hooped out yesterday 38 and 6.
Speaker C
He ain't got, we ain't got. He ain't got no help.
Speaker E
I missing Jalen back.
Speaker C
We ain't got Jalen. We down bad, man. The Magic can make a run. They got them both boys healthy. Yeah, we might see the Magic make a run for that four or five spot.
D.J. Wells
Let's go to the conference innings in East.
Speaker C
I know they drop, but you know they can get hot.
D.J. Wells
What they at? 28 and 29.
Speaker C
Yeah, they in seven. They can get hot, man. You know they can.
D.J. Wells
It's a three game difference between seventh and fourth and east, so.
Speaker C
Man, they can make A run, bro. They get high. They got the squad to do it.
D.J. Wells
Could we go Scroll. But just a little bit more. I want to see the difference between. Oh, yeah, Nick's ain't catching. Celtics. Yeah.
Speaker C
But if I'm the Knicks, I'm. I'm cool with moving to that fourth spot if you.
D.J. Wells
The Knicks.
Speaker C
Yeah, I want to see the Cavs before I want to see the Celtics.
D.J. Wells
I see. But also, do you want to see the Bucks, though?
Speaker C
I want to see the Cavs before I see the Celtics. I'm not worried about. I'm not worried about nobody down there.
D.J. Wells
Okay.
Speaker C
I mean, I ain't worried. Like, my matchup, three, six. That's cool. I get out the first round, but that second round to see the defending champs.
Speaker E
This is tough.
Speaker C

So you think the Knicks would potentially. You know what I'm saying, welcome that Cavaliers match up.
Speaker C
Mm.
D.J. Wells
Okay.
Speaker C
Yeah.
D.J. Wells
But the Knicks. Bucs first round is tough, though.
Speaker C
That's a tough round.
D.J. Wells
Cause you still gotta see Damian Giannis.
Speaker C
I mean, I know how I feel.
D.J. Wells
About the Knicks this year, but it's such a. It's still Damian Giannis, bro.

Speaker E
Yeah.
D.J. Wells
Respect.
Speaker C
Nick's got Eastern Conference championship goals. Bucs do, too. You gonna have to run to somebody.
D.J. Wells
That's what I'm saying. Like, okay, that's cool. But what's more embarrassing, getting snuck in the first round by a team that like the Bucs, that ain't really a sneaky team. That's a terrible way to go. Second round. Second round. You lost to the Celtics. You couldn't do nothing about it. Damian Yanis gets you probably that first round, and you move down for that. Oh, that's wicked.
Speaker C
I ain't saying they gonna do it but I don't. It's cool. You gotta meet him some point. You right.
D.J. Wells
Yeah.
Speaker C
I meet him in the second round. I don't wanna lose in the first round. You right.
Speaker E
Cavs, Celtics, Knicks. That's a. They might as well get him a buy if it was to start today. As much as I love the magic shutters gonna wipe some down for sure.
D.J. Wells
Pisses Nicks would be ugly.
Speaker C
That'd be that. I like that Pistons, Knicks. I mean I know the Knicks gonna.

D.J. Wells
Most definitely. I agree with that 100%. He gets to just go be himself. He ain't got to worry about beating the system because you can't go against the system.
