Here to keep you up to date on everything in the sports world, especially basketball. I'm your host. My name is D.J. wells, joined this morning by my two brothers. To my left, I got Bishop Hendrix. To my right. All right, my brother, Teague. Fellas, good morning. How y'all living Saturday, brother?

[D.J. Wells]

Feeling good, man. We on a championship run again.

[Bishop Hendrix]

We.

[D.J. Wells]

Yeah. Fit or dear?

[Bishop Hendrix]

We got. You know, we got to clarify the. We up here. You know, a lot of different teams.

[D.J. Wells]

We back another episode of.

[Bishop Hendrix]

Oh, my God. The Bucks doing something worthwhile turn up. Hey, man. Championship game yesterday, NBA Cup. Bucks got the Dub yesterday. 97 to 81. Normally, you know what I'm saying, by T. Grues. You score less than 100, you sad, but.

[D.J. Wells]

But if you score less than 90, you real sad.

[Bishop Hendrix]

That's a hell of 81 points in the championship game. Nasty work, man.

[Teague]

Who Dort? He didn't give us nothing yesterday. Shout out to my boy, though. We back at it tonight, man. That's a good dub for the Bucks. I was scared today, man. Gonna lie. But Giannis with 19 rebounds. It's crazy.

[Bishop Hendrix]

Listen, man, hell of a game yesterday. First half was very, very competitive. Third quarter, that's where, you know what I'm saying, things took a little turn. Let's start off like you said, with the Bucs, man. We talked about this. Could change their season. And they look like a really good contender right now, man.

[D.J. Wells]

You know what's crazy? What makes the Bucs actually a really good team is when they play defense. And last night, they guarded. Like I watched Giannis, that was the most locked in I seen Giannis since the championship run. He was guarding, blocking shots, gearing rebounds, and it kind of trickled down through the whole team. I seen Brook Lopez. They changed their coverages again. They started sending doubles at sga. Every time he came off the pick and roll, Brook was up, Giannis was up. The defenders, like, what's Trent Jr. Yeah.

[Bishop Hendrix]

Gary Trent Jr. Had a really big game yesterday.

[D.J. Wells]

He was playing hard on defense. Torian Prince, all those guys were competing, and you could see it. Holding 81 points.

[Bishop Hendrix]

Yeah.

[D.J. Wells]

That's so unlikely with a OKC team who really can score the ball.

[Bishop Hendrix]

Explosive team, for sure. Like you talk about, they held them to low, low. Even some of the other rotation players for the bucks, like A.J. green, people look at him as a liability, but he Rotated well. They play amazing defense.

[D.J. Wells]

He actually a decent defender. Like, he competes defensively. Yeah.

[Bishop Hendrix]

They try to pick on him, but he ain't.

[D.J. Wells]

He ain't saying he ain't going. He ain't going.

[Bishop Hendrix]

They also noted without Chris Middleton.

[D.J. Wells]

Yeah. And I think they play well. So, like Andre Jackson, I think he competed on a defensive end at a high, high level. And I think they have to go forward with that lineup. Like Chris Middleton, Obviously, at the 2, but Andre Jackson at the 3. Cause I think he's a primary defender. I know they like Torian Prince. Cause he can shoot, but the athleticism and the way he guard, y'all gonna need him.

[Teague]

Yeah.

[Bishop Hendrix]

Especially when you go in against Boston.

[D.J. Wells]

Yeah, especially him. I think he defends way better than Torian Prince, but I think Taurian Prince obviously shoots 10 times better.

[Bishop Hendrix]

Yeah. Cause they treat him like self check. I think that's the counteract with him. They treat him like the Easter Thabo Cephalosha for a second. Like, you gonna have to shoot that.

[Teague]

Yeah.

[D.J. Wells]

But if he learned how to play in the dunker. Cause OB Brooke Lopez shoot all threes, so he gives you another person that stretches the floor. But if he learned how to play in a dunker and get some cuts and dunks like that, and he did that last night, he ended up cutting and getting a couple of layups. I think that's a new player that they can unlock for sure.

[Bishop Hendrix]

Listen, man, we talked about Damian Lilly. You've been saying all the time people slept on him, especially when he was doing the season earlier. We talked about the Bucs. They done turned it around. But Dame killed all season, and he had 23 yesterday. But the way he got to that 20, like, in the moments he did, bro. Like the way that him and Giannis take their turns picking apart the defense, bro. It's special. Dame is still very, very legal.

[D.J. Wells]

Oh, nah. He top five point guard in the league.

[Teague]

We ain't never even slept on that. It's just. We always just confused on how they was gonna be compatible with each other on the court. So hopefully it look like they catching the stride, though. They figuring it out. It's good to see them embracing each other, too, though. So. Yeah. At least they like each other.

[D.J. Wells]

When I look at that duo, I can start seeing that, like, Dames figured it out. Like, all right, I'm gonna let Giannis be Giannis, but when Giannis is out the game, I'm gonna turn it up. But when he in the game, I'm gonna play off him, and I Seen that last night. He was giving him ball to Giannis. Giannis will make his move. Giannis was doing a great job of kicking it out too. He wasn't like over forcing the issue like sometimes that he do. And they just had a great game yesterday.

[Bishop Hendrix]

Yeah, I was gonna say that's the one thing I like that I saw from both of them. Dame has been doing it well. Just showcase more because he's in Milwaukee with it. But anytime there's a double, they're accepting the double and making that pass. And it ain't even like a hesitant eye. It's like, nah, I'm making the right reads and the confidence in the even. Obviously you ain't gonna make every shot, but like you said, like the AJ Greens, even with the Andre J. Like they're shooting that ball confidently.

[D.J. Wells]

Yeah. Trent Jr. Made some big shots.

[Bishop Hendrix]

Like you said, he ran off a smooth 10.

[D.J. Wells]

Yeah. I think they found a recipe to be a good team. But they just gotta continue to guard. I don't know if that was just. Cause the odds was on them. It was a big game or whatever. They felt like locking up. Yeah, they felt like locking up.

[Bishop Hendrix]

But I played 14,000 facts.

[D.J. Wells]

If they continue to guard like that shit, we gonna see them in the Eastern Conference finals for sure, man.

[Bishop Hendrix]

Listen, this is the team that we thought they could be. Now on the flip side for okc, Young team. Is just the moment too big for them or did they just run across a team that was just better than them?

[D.J. Wells]

Now they gonna struggle. Like, if you can make it a tough night for sga. Jalen, my favorite player, Jalen Williams gotta show if he could actually be the guy. Like. And last night was one of those moments. They needed him to step up and have one of them nights.

[Teague]

Yeah, bro.

[Bishop Hendrix]

Yeah.

[D.J. Wells]

And he couldn't. And.

[Bishop Hendrix]

And not for lack of trying. Cause he was definitely getting them FGAs.

[D.J. Wells]

Oh, he was trying. But it was just one of those games that they couldn't find it. But I don't think OKC ever shoot that bad from the three.

[Teague]

Hell no.

[Bishop Hendrix]

Historically bad.

[D.J. Wells]

Yeah. They shot the ball very, very bad. I don't know if it was Milwaukee defense or them just missing shots. I'm gonna go with them missing shots. Cause throughout the whole game, it was still a close game until they just couldn't buy a bucket for you to.

[Teague]

Shoot 15% from the three and still be within range of winning you.

[D.J. Wells]

Yeah, I don't think they'll ever shoot that bad.

[Bishop Hendrix]

Yeah.

[Teague]

And I, Lou Dort, I'm gonna kick your Ass, man.

[Bishop Hendrix]

Lou Dort. I mean, hey, J.

[D.J. Wells]

Had a bad night too, though.

[Teague]

He did.

[Bishop Hendrix]

Hey, Lou Dort hit Brook Lopez with a dumb move yesterday.

[Teague]

I know. That's my guy, man.

[Bishop Hendrix]

That's my guy. I didn't know that was it.

[Teague]

Off his rocker yesterday. It's cool.

[Bishop Hendrix]

Nah, he fucked up the part of life for you.

[Teague]

I ain't mad at that win. That's good. Like, I. I feel like the Bucs needed that win more than. I mean, OKC.

[D.J. Wells]

They did.

[Teague]

So.

[Bishop Hendrix]

514,000 for the winner.

[Teague]

Everybody get that. Bust that down. What's that in half?

[Bishop Hendrix]

That's love, man.

[Teague]

Some good chicken.

[Bishop Hendrix]

Shout out to the young rookies on the end of the bench, them two way players who got a little bit of that action.

[D.J. Wells]

Oh, man, I wish I was playing. 14,000 on a two way.

[Bishop Hendrix]

All right, we here right now, y'all.

[D.J. Wells]

End of the bench.

[Bishop Hendrix]

You know what I'm saying? You got a spare, you on a two way.

[D.J. Wells]

You got way more than you made. Like, that's your life just changed. Really. Yeah.

[Bishop Hendrix]

And that's not the only money member because, you know, to each around advance. They got a little bit of chicken, too. So they probably call about 700 close near that.

[D.J. Wells]

Oh, you just changed your life for real.

[Teague]

That's what's up.

[Bishop Hendrix]

What's the first thing you're buying?

[D.J. Wells]

If I'm on the two way.

[Teague]

Two way. I'm chilling.

[Bishop Hendrix]

He said stacking that shit quad.

[Teague]

I probably. I probably got an idea 10 for something, though.

[D.J. Wells]

I probably got like five.

[Teague]

I got an i10.

[D.J. Wells]

I'm on a two way. That mean, like, I got an odds. I'm. I ain't saying struggling, but I'm. Yeah.

[Teague]

Cause we be sounding crazy sometimes when we start talking about struggling, but when.

[Bishop Hendrix]

You in the NBA, that is a struggle.

[Teague]

And you as a nigga up there making 300 million, you struggling on that.

[D.J. Wells]

It's just the fact that, like, you gotta, like, say, had this money for the rest of your life. Well, try to.

[Bishop Hendrix]

Yeah. So okay. Not.

[D.J. Wells]

It's your job now.

[Bishop Hendrix]

Wow.

[Bishop Hendrix]

So NBA cup, second year, y'all. Y'all with it.

[Teague]

I love it, man.

[Bishop Hendrix]

Any changes, y'all think that need to be made? A lot of people be critical of the different floors. I mean, I ain't mad at it. I like the swaggers. Yeah, I like it.

[D.J. Wells]

Who said they was playing in hell? Steve Kerr. Yeah. The Rocket. So that was funny.

[Teague]

Yeah, the pocket.

[D.J. Wells]

Only thing I don't like is, like, the celebration. I appreciate what Milwaukee did. They didn't celebrate. Like, they didn't do the champagne and all that shit.

[Teague]

They were just like, all right, no champagne shirt. But Dame was holding that motherfucker like, this is him.

[Bishop Hendrix]

Yeah, bro.

[D.J. Wells]

I mean, shit, they won. Yeah, I feel them. But I mean, like, popping champagne like he about to win a chip.

[Teague]

Nah, don't pop no champagne.

[Bishop Hendrix]

Milwaukee has the history of not celebrating, apparently.

[D.J. Wells]

Facts. It was very fitting.

[Teague]

That's character.

[Bishop Hendrix]

I seen the Michelobs in there. I was like, damn. What you supposed to throw the beer in the air?

[D.J. Wells]

Damn, that's Kareem.

[Teague]

I'm doing Jabar tribute.

[Bishop Hendrix]

I need some squares. Make it semi, bro.

[Teague]

That's still. That's why I'm like, man, I'll be giving some of them old hell. But for y'all to hoop on cigarettes and beer, bro, go get 20. Y'all was hard. I ain't gonna. I ain't gonna do that today.

[Bishop Hendrix]

We just smoke a second halftime, bro, and come out and get 25 and 10, bro. You cold, bro?

[D.J. Wells]

Yeah.

[Bishop Hendrix]

Gotta respect the leg. Shout out to Moses Malone, man, that's crazy. All right, outlook for both of these teams. Where do we see the Bucs, you know what I'm saying? To take this momentum for what they got here.

[Teague]

Top two.

[Bishop Hendrix]

Top two.

[D.J. Wells]

Nah, top. At least top three in the East. Hopefully they can springboard and start, you know, being a team that we thought.

[Bishop Hendrix]

They were for sure. Okc. Anything to be alarmed about or.

[D.J. Wells]

Nah.

[Teague]

We shot 15% from the three was crazy. 5 for 32 from the three is insane. We'll never do that again. It will soon. Dort.

[Bishop Hendrix]

Yeah. And not for nothing, they are still missing check like we said, you know, that's an intricate part of their team as well.

[Teague]

That got us good, dude.

[Bishop Hendrix]

I imagine the game is a little bit different.

[Teague]

And they. And they. Jeff said, you know, they missed a lot of shots, but shit. That defense was probably frustrating them niggas, bro. So they probably had a mental part, too.

[D.J. Wells]

They definitely was guarding, but, yeah, yeah.

[Bishop Hendrix]

FGA was definitely locked up. Boy, they put him on a lot of different memes last night. They be waiting for people to lose, man. They get wicked out here.

[D.J. Wells]

Yeah. Facts.

[Bishop Hendrix]

Have y'all seen the All Star format change?

[D.J. Wells]

I'm not a fan.

[Teague]

God damn. What's new now you already playing. Goddamn it. What's the game? You had the free throw line. Wind the kids up, knock out that shit Weak, bro.

[Bishop Hendrix]

Actually, if they played All Star knockout, that would be far. See if they put that up in the skill challenge. I hate the skill challenge.

[Teague]

Back to the 90s, bro. That's why I miss Kobe Bryant, bro. Damn. Like, make this shit competitive, bro.

[D.J. Wells]

The east versus West.

[Teague]

Yeah, bro.

[D.J. Wells]

They do east versus west and give them how much money they got. Like that 514,000. Yeah, I think people will play for a meal. Everybody win a meal.

[Bishop Hendrix]

And they have the money.

[Teague]

Oh, that's not even a question.

[Bishop Hendrix]

They have the money.

[Teague]

Like, man, turn this shit back into a real game, I think, because each.

[D.J. Wells]

Player get with 100,000 when you win.

[Bishop Hendrix]

I can't remember something like that.

[D.J. Wells]

I spent that in the club that night.

[Bishop Hendrix]

They ain't leave Brooklyn.

[Teague]

That's how much it cost to party.

[Teague]

Cause I tell the story.

[D.J. Wells]

Shout out to J.R. yeah, that night I had a night, boy.

[Bishop Hendrix]

[Teague]

I got it, bro.

[D.J. Wells]

Yeah, got it. Yeah. I'm asleep.

[Bishop Hendrix]

That's crazy, bro, Because All Star Weekend used to be a monumental time for us. Like, we used to look forward to that weekend. Like, our favorite players on the same team. I mean, with the open draft, stuff was cool, but like you said, with the lack of effort, lack of energy in it. What is this going to do?

[D.J. Wells]

Y'all think they about to play for real right here? Oh, y'all crazy.

[Teague]

Y'all got these niggas picking us. No dice.

[D.J. Wells]

They not about to play for real, though.

[Bishop Hendrix]

As much as I love. Yeah, bro. Come on, bro.

[Teague]

Uh oh, Jeff, stop, bro.

[D.J. Wells]

[Teague]

I gotta pull the cord, bro.

[Teague]

We here gotta stop this, J.

[D.J. Wells]

Real like, bro. Real like old school. That's been.

[Teague]

We live, fam.

[D.J. Wells]

I'm being for real. We can't take restore old school cost more than 125,000. If you go on the car, show those. So they can buy a Bentley with 125,000?

[Bishop Hendrix]

They cannot.

[D.J. Wells]

What we talking about? That's what they in the NBA.

[Bishop Hendrix]

They all start all.

[D.J. Wells]

If you all start, you making at least 25, 30 million a year or more than that. They making 50 now.

[Bishop Hendrix]

Yeah.

[D.J. Wells]

What you think LeBron going to do it? You think LeBron? What he think?

[Bishop Hendrix]

He care about 125,000. He go get a kid.

[Teague]

He probably don't care, bro. But I just. I just.

[D.J. Wells]

You think Anthony Edwards care about 125,000?

[Teague]

I don't think they care about Lamborghini. It's just what you be saying when. When it comes to money and buying real things, bro.

[D.J. Wells]

Oh, they're in the NDA.

[Teague]

Say, I can't buy a Bentley coupe with 120. Buy a real car, bro.

[D.J. Wells]

A real car.

[Teague]

Real car is a Toyota Corolla, bro.

[D.J. Wells]

That's not to them, bro.

[Teague]

To us, yes, but no to you.

[D.J. Wells]

No civilians.

[Teague]

No, not to you.

[D.J. Wells]

We civilians now.

[Bishop Hendrix]

Y'all talking about all that's.

[Teague]

Now he want to be a civilian.

[D.J. Wells]

I am. I think I get. I go to work every morning.

[Teague]

What?

[D.J. Wells]

Well, I'm saying for NBA All Star. NBA All Star. That's what we go. NBA All Star game format.

[Teague]

I just don't want people throwing at you, bro.

[D.J. Wells]

They can't I'm telling the truth. They know that. They all fans of them people. They be looking. Everybody watched the what's the NBA shit that was on Netflix.

[Bishop Hendrix]

They saw starting five.

[D.J. Wells]

I ain't seen no weak whips. Now starting five. I just seen James Harden do a commercial. All his whips was elite. What we talking about? None of them was 125,000.

[Bishop Hendrix]

I put his whoops out.

[D.J. Wells]

What are we talking about? I ain't seen no 125s. And he a streamer.

[Bishop Hendrix]

Just saying. You can't say content creator. I seen y'all cars. No, I'm just playing. Relax.

[D.J. Wells]

They get money. Yeah.

[Bishop Hendrix]

See that Bentley trying to take up. Trying to help me. That boy got that Bentley outside allegations.

[Teague]

Y be shooting at the wrong. Y'all going to be shooting at somebody.

[D.J. Wells]

Lawyer.

[Teague]

I better stop. Don't listen to that Digg boy.

[D.J. Wells]

They're going to be shooting a kid.

[Bishop Hendrix]

No, I think it's us. Y'all crazy. The real junior. All y'all crazy, man. Listen, man. Some trade news, you know what I'm saying? A little bit of rumor. I heard the Nuggets talking about they trying to make a move. Some of the targets, they didn't call.

[Teague]

Me about that one.

[D.J. Wells]

You ain't tapped in. They called me.

[Teague]

Respect, Lord.

[D.J. Wells]

But I told about that Cam Johnson.

[Bishop Hendrix]

You definitely said Cam Johnson. As they're heavily favored into Zach Levine. You said that as well. Some other targets, Jordan Clarkson and Jordan Poole. Of these four gentlemen right here, who you think is the best fit for that team?

[Teague]

Cam.

[D.J. Wells]

Cam will be the best fit. And most likely fit will probably be Zach Levine. The Bulls have been ready to get off Zach Levine for a while.

[Bishop Hendrix]

Now. I think he could really help that team. Now. He got. I think he has to come in and know that obviously you not numero uno on this team. Maybe not two, either. But if he can come in and just do what he do best and fit in with the team, bro, Zach Levine could really help that team. Cause they need another scoring threat as well, man.

[D.J. Wells]

They do.

[Bishop Hendrix]

And he can shoot the basketball.

[D.J. Wells]

They need a wing defender.

[Teague]

Yeah.

[D.J. Wells]

They don't have nobody play the defense.

[Teague]

That's a fact, bro.

[D.J. Wells]

I mean. I mean, ag. Do Aaron Gordon play defense? That's what he hangs his hat on. But when they had Caldwell Pope, that's what he locked up.

[Bishop Hendrix]

They missed that.

[D.J. Wells]

Yeah. They need a wing sniper defender. It's Cam Johnson. He can guard, he can cut off the ball. He can shoot.

[Teague]

That's what they really only pick for them.

[D.J. Wells]

Yeah, that's what they need. Zach Levine's the pretty pick.

[Bishop Hendrix]

Listen for shit for shitshow. I want JP there.

[D.J. Wells]

Why? I mean, he could play. Obviously he good enough to play with other superstars and stuff like that. We seen. Which proves with Steph and all them. So obviously he can go there and play serious basketball. So it might not be a bad pick.

[Bishop Hendrix]

Yeah, I just want Jordan Poole to get out there and kill Yoke. Or him and Russell Westbrook kill second unit together on some bullshit. That'd be fire.

[D.J. Wells]

I can see that, honestly. I mean, he got more. More than enough talent to do it for sure.

[Bishop Hendrix]

But who would you give up to get one of these? Would you move in PJ to get Cam Johnson?

[Teague]

You got to.

[D.J. Wells]

Hell yeah, in a heartbeat.

[Bishop Hendrix]

Gotta make that move.

[D.J. Wells]

Yeah, I would do it in a half seatbeat.

[Bishop Hendrix]

Would you throw a pick with that to make it happen?

[D.J. Wells]

Nope. I think they even. I think old buddy make more money than Cam Johnson and pj.

[Teague]

He do.

[D.J. Wells]

He on a max deal.

[Teague]

He do. If y'all want to pick, y'all can have him though. We trying to get. We trying to get Cam. I think we tired of MPJ and.

[Bishop Hendrix]

You might be able to absorb another contract with that or make another special move.

[D.J. Wells]

Yeah, you might be able to get Cam and like, he might be able to get Cam Thomas too. Shit, he on a rookie deal.

[Bishop Hendrix]

Yeah. I don't know what Brooklyn on. I mean, obviously they ain't trying to really pay nobody right now.

[D.J. Wells]

Yeah, he on a rookie deal. He. You can score off the bench, they.

[Bishop Hendrix]

Get both of them. That's crazy. That's. Yeah, that's. That's different. Now you got the shooter you need for your first unit and you got a butterfly score off the bench too. Yeah, that. That puts them back in title contention for me for sure.

[D.J. Wells]

They might be able to pull it off MPJ and shit. Who else they got over there they don't like? I know they like that dude. Peyton.

[Bishop Hendrix]

Peyton Watson.

[D.J. Wells]

Yeah.

[Bishop Hendrix]

He ain't going nowhere.

[D.J. Wells]

Nah, he not.

[Bishop Hendrix]

He ain't going. Him or Braun. They ain't going nowhere.

[D.J. Wells]

Yeah, I don't know nobody else that they got that young. They might be trying to get off the light skinned fella they signed that 4 years 32 with him. Got the fro. You know what I'm talking about.

[Teague]

Yeah, maybe, but he ain't in the way though, bro.

[Bishop Hendrix]

Yeah, but they can get rid of him.

[Teague]

But he ain't in the way.

[D.J. Wells]

I know. I forgot his name though.

[Bishop Hendrix]

He will put him on the screen.

[D.J. Wells]

It's Like Najee Harris. Is that him? Yeah, Najee Harris.

[Bishop Hendrix]

We'll look it up. But Najee Ramba, you're out of pocket.

[D.J. Wells]

That was a fire episode, by the way.

[Teague]

Brother Rock Martin here, that was crazy.

[D.J. Wells]

What was that name on there?

[Teague]

Zeke?

[D.J. Wells]

Yeah, Zeke Naji. There you go.

[Teague]

I think about that.

[Bishop Hendrix]

Y'all crazy, man. Jimmy Butler. Apparently the Sons wasn't a lie. Sons of Golden State. Which one y'all think he might go to?

[D.J. Wells]

Oh, so Shams was right.

[Bishop Hendrix]

Allegedly.

[D.J. Wells]

Bernie, you a boy. Bernie, you healed.

[Teague]

Or call your ass Shams is Twitter fingers. He be beating me to the punch. Oh, I got a.

[D.J. Wells]

[D.J. Wells]

Got him, Kumar.

[Teague]

Got him going to the Suns, baby. For who, Jimmy?

[D.J. Wells]

For who?

[Bishop Hendrix]

Gotta be Brad Bill.

[Teague]

I'm cool with that.

[Bishop Hendrix]

And he gonna have to assign his own trade clause.

[Teague]

I'm cool with that, bro.

[Bishop Hendrix]

Ah.

[D.J. Wells]

Going to Miami. Brad gonna sign that in a heartbeat.

[Teague]

Yeah, I'm cool.

[D.J. Wells]

But Brad and who, though? I mean, the money probably equal up.

[Teague]

Yeah.

[Bishop Hendrix]

Yeah. The money probably close. That should be straight up. I'm sure I have some other nuances behind it, but I don't know if.

[D.J. Wells]

They'Re gonna trade Brad Bill for Jimmy Bully. I don't know if they're gonna do that.

[Teague]

I would. I love Brad. Brad want to be in Miami anyway.

[D.J. Wells]

Yeah. He wanted to be with Jimmy.

[Teague]

I like Brad with Bam.

[D.J. Wells]

I do, too.

[Bishop Hendrix]

What if something else stupid happened? And I don't know how this happens, but in the craziest scenario, they keep all them and Jimmy.

[D.J. Wells]

That would be. It ain't enough. It ain't enough.

[Teague]

First of all, the money is.

[D.J. Wells]

They had to give up Grayson Allen.

[Bishop Hendrix]

It would be hilarious.

[D.J. Wells]

[D.J. Wells]

Niggas getting this Monte Morris. Yeah. They gonna give up five niggas.

[Bishop Hendrix]

That would be hilarious if they. And the rest of their picks, highly unlikely. But that would be funny as hell.

[Teague]

Nah, that wouldn't even make no sense. Like I said, personalities.

[D.J. Wells]

Grayson Alley and Bradley Bill. Bradley Bill leaving they. Bradley Bill gonna be gone, and they gonna get Ryan Dunn. Everybody like Ryan Dunn.

[Teague]

Yeah, that's the problem.

[D.J. Wells]

They was smoking dope thinking that.

[Teague]

Yeah, but that's the problem, though. The hype. That's what Jeff's saying. Like, shit. We got another nigga that can average 10 and five.

[D.J. Wells]

Oh, God.

[D.J. Wells]

Oh, God.

[Teague]

Before paying you a crazy contract after your rookie shit is over, B Mill.

[Bishop Hendrix]

Went three in that draft, right? Ooh, boy, I know they sick.

[D.J. Wells]

Yeah. What B. Mill averaging.

[Teague]

Damn. 21.

[Bishop Hendrix]

Yeah. I can't say.

[D.J. Wells]

That's what I'm saying. Like, shit like that ain't looking good, bro.

[Teague]

I know Brandon Miller averaging at least 21.

[D.J. Wells]

22.

[Bishop Hendrix]

We looked it up.

[D.J. Wells]

It don't look good. Like, I don't look good.

[Savannah Guthrie]

Damn.

[D.J. Wells]

Scoop like. And they in the same boat. Yeah, like, literally, bro. He playing with lamelo, who averaging 30 real and miles.

[Teague]

Nah, he touches.

[D.J. Wells]

He playing more minutes, but shit, 28 minutes when you got free reign.

[Bishop Hendrix]

Yeah.

[D.J. Wells]

And you gotta be at least 16. 16 and 5, 16 and 7.

[Teague]

Joshi ain't stopping you from leading that team and scoring, bro.

[D.J. Wells]

Nah, you just ain't proving that you could do it. So he gotta go with something else for sure.

[Bishop Hendrix]

Man, we gonna scoot, man. You got another year.

[Teague]

I fuck with you, though. Scoot. All right, man, tighten up.

[Bishop Hendrix]

That's a nasty ass roster, too. It's a bad, bad roster.

[Teague]

But I believe in Scoop. I just hate he having this slump like this.

[Bishop Hendrix]

Bounce back, King. Bounce back. All right, man. True or false?

[D.J. Wells]

Damn.

[Bishop Hendrix]

Bucks will win the NBA championship this year.

[Teague]

Y'all got it. No fear, Bambi, bro.

[D.J. Wells]

I ain't gonna say true.

[Bishop Hendrix]

No.

[D.J. Wells]

Truth. I don't know.

[Bishop Hendrix]

Y'all ain't rolling. Okay, False is fool.

[D.J. Wells]

I'm still rolling with the Celtics or something.

[Bishop Hendrix]

Okay. Yeah, for great reason, actually. Jimmy Butler would be a warrior before the deadline.

[D.J. Wells]

Boss.

[Bishop Hendrix]

Boss, how you feel about that hand?

[Teague]

He'll be somewhere. He won't be on the Heat.

[Bishop Hendrix]

Okay, so false bet Lakers will miss the playoffs.

[D.J. Wells]

Facts.

[Teague]

Yep. True.

[Savannah Guthrie]

False.

[Bishop Hendrix]

Lakers will make the playoffs.

[D.J. Wells]

I mean, it's 10 teams. Yeah. They make it. You're right.

[Teague]

No, they don't. They gotta play in to make it, so.

[Bishop Hendrix]

No, you said they're gonna lose the play in.

[Teague]

Oh, it's true for that.

[Bishop Hendrix]

Because it's okay. 76 will make the playoffs.

[D.J. Wells]

No.

[Bishop Hendrix]

False. They have no incention to make the playoffs.

[D.J. Wells]

Yeah. They're out of there.

[Bishop Hendrix]

Yeah. Why? Nothing's the game for winning right now at all.

[D.J. Wells]

Nothing. What about they get the number one pick?

[Bishop Hendrix]

That's cheating.

[D.J. Wells]

Crazy.

[Bishop Hendrix]

If they can no more pick who they draft.

[Teague]

They don't know. They don't even fucking know.

[D.J. Wells]

Cooper flag.

[Bishop Hendrix]

You think Cooper really? With Embiid?

[D.J. Wells]

No. It's up.

[Bishop Hendrix]

Damn.

[D.J. Wells]

They got the TikTok Boy, Tyrese Coop.

[Bishop Hendrix]

PG and Embiid Safari scene. It's a mixture too. I agree. Say Ace wouldn't work on that team at all.

[D.J. Wells]

No. Ace need to Go to Portland or somewhere. Yeah, Ace need to go somewhere. They need somebody send them to Portland. Yeah, just get loose.

[Bishop Hendrix]

You know, you would just make me think, boy, he better school better hope they don't get Dylan.

[D.J. Wells]

Oh, yeah, that's what I'm saying.

[Bishop Hendrix]

Like, I hope they don't get Dylan.

[D.J. Wells]

Dylan Harper coming there and do that.

[Teague]

On a light day.

[D.J. Wells]

Yeah, shoot that.

[Teague]

That's the scary part about the NBA, bro.

[D.J. Wells]

You get. You get drafted over.

[Teague]

It's like, damn, you on your last leg.

[D.J. Wells]

I keep. I'm tired of killing Keelian Hayes. I don't got no problem with him. I just didn't like his game or whatever. I don't think he a bad person or nothing, but, like, that's what happened to him. Jay and Ivy, they just kept like, yeah, get Jay Ivy. You like, damn.

[Bishop Hendrix]

And then look how they did Jay Ivy right afterwards. It's a cycle.

[D.J. Wells]

Yeah, like vicious.

[Teague]

I wonder how much they gave him Nil, though. That's gonna be the big thing. If he gonna be able to get some players for sure. Like, think about Jackson State. Nil weren't really cracking, cracking like that yet.

[Bishop Hendrix]

But you had prom.

[D.J. Wells]

[Teague]

Why ain't it Adam Scheffner? See what I'm saying? I told y'all about these niggas. They always speaking ahead of themselves.

[Bishop Hendrix]

Nah, because there was a report that came out about Sacramento State, him going there. They said they had 50 M's in Miami.

[Teague]

Half. He ain't going from 50 million to no a hundred thousand.

[Bishop Hendrix]

We don't even know if the 50 is real or not. That's what I'm saying.

[Teague]

I told y'all about this. I'm the real analyst on this motherfucker, man. I told y'all he did not see the. These niggas talking about. This nigga can afford to give somebody. He don't have to be 50. He can afford to give somebody $500,000.

[Bishop Hendrix]

Yeah, we don't know we got. We gotta do our research on that one.
