[DJ Wells]

Good morning. Happy Wednesday. It's 5:20 in the morning, your favorite morning sports show here to keep you updated. Everything sports related, especially basketball. I'm the host. My name is DJ Wells. I got my two esteemed co hosts joined with me up here. I got Bishop Hendricks to my left. To my right, I got my brother Teague. Fellas, good morning. How y'all doing?

[Teague]

Chilling, bro. What's happening?

[DJ Wells]

What's happening with it?

[Bishop Hendricks]

Tired of doing this shit.

[Teague]

Quit.

[DJ Wells]

But too late. Shout out to the contract with that little kid.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Say, I hate this church.

[DJ Wells]

Top 5 meme of all time.

[Bishop Hendricks]

That's how I feel.

[DJ Wells]

I hate this church.

[Teague]

I hate this church. It's crazy. Yeah, I wonder what he doing now.

[DJ Wells]

Yeah, we need to have a follow up for all the kids. Remember you had the the Divine Reals classics. We need to have a follow up on all the people because the Golden Marcus documentary was crazy. To see him as a teenager and adult was funny. I hate this church for sure. Hey, man, some great basketball last night. Shout out to the cup, man, the playing tournament. Everybody thought it was going to be a joke, but it's always been giving us great basketball since his obsession last year. Starting off, we had no sense. The battle of the east, the Cavs and the Celtics, man. Really, really good game. 121, 17 win by the Celtics. Tatum went crazy yesterday. 33, 12, 7, your boy Al Horford, man, every time it's a big game, he shows up 27. Another 19 from Derek White. Man, did y'all check the game out last night?

[Bishop Hendricks]

Yeah, I watched that whole game, actually.

[Teague]

Yeah, I knew they was going to lose, though.

[DJ Wells]

You thought the Cavs was going to lose?

[Teague]

I said it yesterday on the show. I knew it.

[DJ Wells]

Yeah, I mean, it was close though.

[Teague]

It was a close win though, for.

[DJ Wells]

Sure, for the show, man. Listen, tough environment to play in in Boston. But listen, we can start with the Cavaliers. What do you take from that loss for them, Teague?

[Bishop Hendricks]

That's a good team right there. I mean, Darius Garland played terrible yesterday. He had a bad night. Very unusual for him this season. He had a bad one. But for them to come back like they did, they were down big. They fall back, made it a game. Donovan Mitchell, fantastic that game. He's impressive, bro. Him and Jason Tatum was battling and out. And that's just really two really good teams. For sure.

[DJ Wells]

For sure, man. Listen. Yo, yo, Donovan Mitchell take is looking better and better each day, man. He's had a smooth 35, eight yesterday. Uh, one thing I will say about the Cavs that I really saluted yesterday was one, I saw the leadership in Donovan Mitchell that everybody doubted last year when things were going the best in last year. They say he was pouting, trying to get paid, didn't care about his team. Um, they had a timeout where they had, like, you know, where they mic'd up and he talked about, hey, if we playing like this in the first quarter, we shooting this bad and they still doing this, we good. I saw the people look at him like, all right, we locked in. Yeah. So just for that, to see him step up as a leader, as he's playing well, is dope to see for sure. Also, they missed Isaacro last night. I know the Celtics a little looking for kp, but I thought the clear distinguish between those two teams is, listen, JB and jt, two of the best wings in the world. And if you want to compete with them, you got to have somebody for them. Because they picked on DG and Sam Merrill all night last night.

[Bishop Hendricks]

They kept switching that, getting them switches every night. But the thing was, Sam Merrill was competing. He wasn't bad on defense, actually. He was kind of getting some stops. That kind of surprised me. I played with Sam in Milwaukee, and he a competitor, but he did a lot of good things that I was surprised he could shoot that ball, though. He ended up getting hot in that third, hitting a couple of threes and have him come back for sure. The kid Porter off the bench played well, too, man.

[DJ Wells]

Shout out to him. And, you know, I was going to bring that up because you always talk about how great Kenneth Yakis said with the guard situation, we sure love to tighten her own, but, yeah, Craig Porter Jr. Yesterday, he kept him afloat in the second quarter because nobody else was scoring besides Donovan.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Yeah, he came out on hoop, man. Your opportunity was given to you, and you made the most of it right there. Facts.

[Teague]

Best of seven, who wins?

[Bishop Hendricks]

I mean, Boston probably gonna win. They proven champs.

[Teague]

What should. Six games, seven games, five.

[Bishop Hendricks]

They probably beat them at six. Cleveland gonna play good at Cleveland. Like they can score the ball. They gonna play well, but they two stars have to be great in big moments. And Donovan Mitchell has proven to be good in the playoffs and have big moments, but Darius Garland haven't had those moments yet. And he's gonna have to have one of those playoff runs where he has a good. You know, he's gonna have highs and lows, but he has had that moment where he has a big playoff and they lose. Then he Comes back next year, knows what it takes to win and then boom. He gets over the hump.

[DJ Wells]

Yeah, most definitely. And shout out to Evan Mobius. That plays hot 2011. I just wish it gives him a little bit more VC for his handles, bro. Once he gets that squared away, then he gonna be all the way there, bro. He's already nice.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Nah, he cold.

[Teague]

He's a dog.

[DJ Wells]

But that traveling stuff be crazy. Like bro, just go crazy. Like you got the space to be pushing in transition. Just like he gets to a three point line and shit just get wicked. But hey man, he's a dog. And like you said, Darius Garland is not going to play that bad again. 3 for 21. You getting a close game which your all star playing that bad. Like it's something to look forward to for that team for sure.

[Teague]

That's a hell of a stat line.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Jerry Allen, an animal, bro. He was getting all them offensive boards, he was dominant, he was hooping, he was playing well. I mean it's actually a good team. I would like to see that in the Eastern Conference finals. It was an exciting game. It was fun to watch for sure.

[DJ Wells]

Man.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Shoot. Nothing but threes, dog.

[DJ Wells]

And that's why I said I gotta show respect to the Cavs. Cause what The Celtics, what 22, three, something crazy like that. And they still weathered that storm, still came back down. Daniel 20. It's just different man. When you got players like Jrue Holiday, like when you got players like Peyton Pritchard, like Sam Houston, like the role players for the Celtics don't mess up. They don't make mistakes. They do what they supposed to do. And then you just got everybody doing what they supposed on that team.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Shout out to the G wagon. My dog Jordan Yang, the minivan, he was out there hooping too.

[DJ Wells]

Was that a flop?

[Teague]

Was that a push off? Man?

[DJ Wells]

Was that a push off or a cross?

[Teague]

Nah, Jason Tatum crossed him up.

[DJ Wells]

They saying that streets are saying it's a push off for a step on.

[Teague]

It was a. Nah. Good move jt. And what he say when he walked off? Fuck out of here. Sad ass nigga.

[Bishop Hendricks]

I like that. You know why he did that though? Cause George talked the most shit. Oh, okay. He's the most shit talking dude.

[Teague]

Yeah.

[Bishop Hendricks]

I love George, bro. He been like that since he was a rookie. He talked shit.

[Alex Cross]

Yeah.

[DJ Wells]

Shout out to the minivan. Before we get off this topic, what do you think the Cavs need to be able to compete with the Celtics and the East? Cause right now I think those clearly are the best two teams. Do they need another wing to compete with players? You said more players. Yeah, and need more people.

[Teague]

I'm just saying the Celtics are a deep AAU team.

[Bishop Hendricks]

They probably need another wing. Isaac Okuro, he can play defense. I don't know. His offense is not where his defense is, but they probably need one more wing. They get another wing, it'll be a good series.

[DJ Wells]

Yeah, man. I would like for them to go all out this season, go get a. You know what I'm saying? Disgruntled wing or somebody who just wants to come get a chip and to help them compete in the east, man, but they solid team. It's a great game yesterday for sure.

[Bishop Hendricks]

I wouldn't be mad if they went and got a Kyle Kuzma. If Kuzma was playing like we know he can play.

[Teague]

Lakers can play Kuzma.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Yeah, like playing defense and making his threes type of Kuzma. Not the I'm wilding, I'm trying to get 30 coos. Yeah, but he wouldn't be a bad wing for him to have. I mean, he got, you know, he taller wing. What he like six, eight, six nine?

[Teague]

Cools the model. Ain't it right now, though, he got a. He got a tap back. They need a dog. For real. Yeah, he too tender.

[DJ Wells]

Brad is going to come in here and fit the mold right away. Yeah, they got something going. And shout out to. Great game yesterday. Another great game. Lakers and Jazz, man, we didn't think it was going to be a good game, but it turned out to be a crazy one. Your boy Westside connect. You was hiring him, man, going into the draft. He did his thing yesterday.

[Teague]

Special player, bro. Bro, the real white boy in la, you know what I mean?

[DJ Wells]

He already passed Austin Reeves up.

[Teague]

He better, bro. I told y'all, he better than Austin Reeves, bro.

[DJ Wells]

Man, listen. 124, 118 victory over the Jazz yesterday for the Lakers. Dalton connect went crazy yesterday. 37 points, 9 for 12 and 3 rookie score record high so far this season. And Ty 1 for the franchise, man, he went insane. What's crazy is AD had 26 and 14 and Braun had 26 and 12. So they really won that game yesterday.

[Teague]

No, for sure, bro. But he's special, bro. He gonna give y'all more games like that this year. I ain't saying he gonna average 30. Of course not, but. Cause he got them two other guns on the team. But he gonna have a great year, bro. He's special. I spoke with him before he even got drafted, though.

[DJ Wells]

You did. You were very Very high on him.

[Teague]

Tennessee legend, you know what I mean? But it is what it is.

[Bishop Hendricks]

I think AD is probably going to be front running for MVP this year. Most definitely. The Lakers still playing well with their 10 and four.

[DJ Wells]

Yeah, on a six game winning streak too.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Yeah. Ad averaging 30 and 11. He front running for MVP. I know Jokic is playing out of his mind too, but to see what Anthony Davis is doing with that Laker team that we think is kind of undermanned, I would say. I mean with LeBron I guess now connecting Reeves, other than that they struggle. You're what's his name? Rui being out for a while. Anthony Davidson took on the leader of the team basically. I mean, LeBron's still there, but AD is the go to guy and he's been playing great.

[DJ Wells]

Most definitely, man. And one thing that people giving JJ a lot of praise for, they say they keeping it simple. He's running everything through his best players and making them be comfortable. And they can tell they're playing totally different basketball than they played with Darvin Ham last year. Got to show some respect to that as well. But show some love to the Jazz. They competed yesterday. As much as the Lakers went crazy yesterday, they still almost lost his game. Lori marking was killing 25 and 8. You had 18 apiece from Jordan Clarkson, Keonte, George, my dog and your boy. Wake Forest. John COLLINS Sexton had 19. Man, a lot of people auditioned to go to the Lakers last night.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Damn. Jon's still out there.

[DJ Wells]

Yeah, man. After AEW dunked on him, we know it's been spooky, but he's still out here doing his thing. That contract was signed. That's all that mattered.

[Bishop Hendricks]

John's my daughter, man. 19th pick, just like me out of Wake Forest. Always got love for him for sure.

[DJ Wells]

But yeah, I mean, I can see some of these players we just mentioned being in other teams to help contribute. I don't know what the Jazz is doing. Obviously, we know they ain't trying to win, but I could see a Jordan Clarkson helping somebody as a six. Man, I can see a Kyle Sexton being a dog for another team. Yeah, I know Lori Market was an off season situation, but they're still trying to move around. Walker Kessler, they got a lot of pieces that could really help some teams, man.

[Teague]

Colin Sexton might stay though. They just got him. They might let him rock out now.

[Bishop Hendricks]

It's time for him to go.

[DJ Wells]

Yeah, he got to be free, man. He don't deserve to do a beat down second year.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Jordan Clarkson. It's time for him to move on too.

[Teague]

Yeah, Jordan for sure, free to realize, but I think they keep calling, bro.

[Bishop Hendricks]

I'm trying to think of a team that could use Jordan Clarkson, another six man that could score the ball off the bench. Probably like a Milwaukee Bucks.

[DJ Wells]

He would be perfect for that team. Yeah, they needed, you know what I'm saying, a young wing that could, you know what I'm saying, get a bucket. Listen, you know the way that he plays basketball, a playoff team could definitely use his services for sure.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Yeah.

[DJ Wells]

But I don't know if the teams want to give up what they're probably looking to get. Cause obviously the Jazz, they're not giving up nothing for the low. Cause this whole summer they was taxing people. They say, you want Laurie marking, you gonna pay this fee.

[Teague]

You got to though. My best player though, he's a superstar.

[DJ Wells]

Even what they were saying in the other trade, they was like, nah, you going something around here, you gonna pay the tax. Utah ain't coming off nothing for the love. They ain't playing at all. Yeah, 18 to 6. I mean, we know Larry Marcus is capable of being 20 and 10, like light work situations. It's crazy that he left the Bulls anyway.

[Teague]

I think he looks just like Andre Karolenko, bro.

[DJ Wells]

I swear to God, I'm still laughing at you sending a real white boy la. That's crazy. The dog in that pass, Austin Reeves, that quick, man.

[Teague]

Yeah, bro, you know, AR do his thing, bro, but it's the connect time, bro.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Ar the point guard.

[Teague]

Westside Connection is a better, better name than ar, bro. That's, that's raw, bro.

[DJ Wells]

Who rap video. He got to be it out.

[Bishop Hendricks]

What number ar wear? 15.

[Teague]

Yeah. Ar 15.

[Bishop Hendricks]

That's harder. Ar 15 is hard.

[Teague]

That is hard.

[DJ Wells]

But don't connect number Boo. Boo.

[Teague]

Yeah, but west side Connection, bro, is west side Connect is for what, dog?

[Bishop Hendricks]

We four.

[Teague]

I believe so.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Connect four. Yeah, it's Connect four. Yeah.

[Teague]

Special kid right there, man.

[DJ Wells]

You how I am for sure, man.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Hey, old as hell.

[Southern New Hampshire University Representative]

Chill out, bro.

[Bishop Hendricks]

23 as a rookie.

[DJ Wells]

23 year old rookie.

[Teague]

Oh, he's seasoned, bro. He did what he supposed to, man.

[DJ Wells]

What's crazy? That used to be normal. It used to be normal. You having come people coming in at 22, 23. Cause they did four years in college. It's just like, dang, we shaming now.

[Teague]

Yeah, it ain't cool no more, but you gotta come in the league and kill like that, you know what I mean? Cause if you owe, if you old ass rookie, they gonna find A way to send you down to the G league and get you out of there.

[DJ Wells]

Yeah, that is true. If you, you know, they look at that age, way too serious in that situation. Lakers, y'all still feel like they can contend in the West?

[Teague]

No, I'm sleep. But they playing good.

[Bishop Hendricks]

I mean, they got, they can. Cause they got two really top 10 players in the league. Anthony Davis is a top five player at any moment in the league. When he's, when he's on. Yeah, when he's playing, when he's healthy. Right now, he a top five player in the league. And LeBron, just off of pure greatness, is always going to be a top 10 player. Cause he's capable of having nights like he did last night or capable of going for four triple doubles in a row. So having them two players at one time on the same team, you got a chance. Most definitely.

[DJ Wells]

That's why I said they one of them teams that you just don't want to see in the playoffs unless you like one or two. I don't want to have to be LeBron four times. I don't want to have to be LeBron AD four times, bro. That's tough to deal with for sure.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Now I want AD on this.

[DJ Wells]

Yeah, bro. MVP season. Like you said, bro. He going crazy right now. Salute, man.

[DJ Wells]

Philadelphia. They come and give us content every single day. Shout out to them. Allegedly, Kyle Lawrence called a team meeting. I always love when we hear about these team meetings that players call the players only meetings that end up going out to the world. Allegedly. Tyrese Maxey challenged Joel Embiid and told him, hey bro, stop showing up late to shit.

[Teague]

It's real shit though, bro.

[DJ Wells]

Was he out of pocket for telling.

[Teague]

Him that, bro, the youngster shouldn't be having to check you about shit, bro. Y'all supposed to be training me like to be a better vet or be a better pro. I should say, like shouldn't. No way. Tyrese Maxey is telling Joel unb like get your shit together. I'm nothing, bro.

[Bishop Hendricks]

I said it yesterday. I think sometimes people just don't care no more. Like sometimes it ran its course and people just like, whatever bro. And I think it might have been that moment, you know what I mean? He might not be rocking with how things is going that way. And Joel just like, whatever. And people were writing me yesterday, talking about I was hating on PG or whatever. I don't know. I just got a whole bunch of dm. I wasn't hating on pg. I'm saying he came to a situation where it might have just ran his course. You know what I mean? It's like, I'm not comparing him Tobias Harris, and I'm not hating on Tobias Harris. I like Tobias Harris and I like pg. But I think he got put in a situation where now he gonna be Tobias Harris. Cause Joel don't care or seem not to care right now. And Tyrese is out. So now everybody looking towards you like we paid you. It's time for you to show up. And you like, damn. I came here to be the third option to chill. I came to help y'all. I ain't come to be that.

[DJ Wells]

Yep.

[Bishop Hendricks]

And now they putting you in a place like Tobias Harris where they wanted you to be something else. But you ain't signed up for that. You came here cause you was ready to chill.

[Teague]

You always say you cool with being the, you know, Robin.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Yeah, but he was cool even being who was after Robin.

[Teague]

Alfred.

[DJ Wells]

Nah, he ain't making a play. Alfred.

[Bishop Hendricks]

I'm just saying cuz it be Batman. Tyrese was robbing. He was like, I'm cool being Alfred. Like, I'm chilling. But now they trying to move Alfred to Batman, tell him to put the suit on. And he's like, nah, brother, this. I ain't signed up for that.

[DJ Wells]

I make the plans. I ain't out here doing that saving.

[Teague]

Hell yeah.

[Bishop Hendricks]

I feel you, though.

[DJ Wells]

And I give it the Vince Carter effect. With pg, it's just know sometimes you go into situations to where you think this is the piece that gets you over the hump, but it's just like, damn, the year before was our best situation. You look at what happened with Vince and the Nets. Look in Orlando. Still a great player, but PG is a Hall of Famer. I saw y'all in the comments being weird about that. Paul George is one of the coldest to play basketball. If you don't believe us, that's cool. But go look at the generation of kids who play basketball who they all say their favorite player is. That's not just some random effects.

[Bishop Hendricks]

I mean, if Vince made the hall of Fame, if T. Mac made the hall of Fame, Paul George making the hall of Fame.

[Teague]

Yeah.

[DJ Wells]

And as much as we give flack to pgs, you know what I'm saying? Those. Go ahead. Buckets or whatever. Look at his playoff sets, too.

[Teague]

But Vince was a dog, though, that you mentioned Vince Carter. I just. And I see what you saying, but.

[DJ Wells]

Yeah, yeah. Not comparing, but just, you know, coming into the team too late.

[Teague]

But when Vince came to the Nets, he came to rock, bro. Like, I'm coming to kill with y'all. Like, Paul George, like, bro said, wanted to, you know, let me get my 20 quietly.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Yeah.

[Teague]

You know what I'm saying? Like, Vince took over a lot of the games, like, and didn't give a fuck.

[Bishop Hendricks]

But when Vince went to the Nets, he came as the first option.

[Teague]

Yeah.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Like, he came.

[DJ Wells]

Vince was to be the guy. That's why I said more of the Orlando situation. I would compare.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Like, he was a little later in his years. They had Dwight Turk and all these.

[DJ Wells]

First type of finals, thinking that was.

[Teague]

About to fall back in this team. Paul George is Richard Jefferson on that.

[DJ Wells]

Next might be Kee Van Hor.

[Bishop Hendricks]

But nah, he Richard Jefferson.

[Teague]

Yeah. That's what he's trying to. That's what he's trying to be as a role player. But to me, and I don't even be about the. The money, bro, you a killer. If your team is struggling at some point, fill that void until we get back. Right. You can step and be. You know what I mean, Alfred all you want, bro, but we need you to hop in this badmobile.

[Bishop Hendricks]

It's easier said than done, because when your expectations. Look, I was hurt. I got hurt, but he sprained his knee or whatever. Hyperextended his knee. So he's still trying to whoop himself in the game shape, so.

[DJ Wells]

And still trying to fit into a.

[Bishop Hendricks]

New organization in teams, new team, new role.

[Teague]

Okay, well, if that's the case, I understand that.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Yeah.

[Teague]

Okay.

[Bishop Hendricks]

So I get why he might not be as aggressive right now like you. Damn, you dang. Never messed your knee up. Yeah, I get that. But you also came here like, well, I don't gotta be that aggressive, because we know Joel about to get 25 touches. I know Tyrese about to shoot 20 times. My 15 shots I'm gonna make, I'm gonna make seven, eight of them. I'm gonna be smooth. And now he's still doing that because he ain't playing terrible. Like, when you look at his stats. It's just that we want more because Joel out or Tyrese out. We like, nah, we remember Paul George getting 40 or 35 or 28, and he like, well, shit, I ain't there. I ain't where I'm at no more. I came here to Ride off.

[Teague]

That's just tough for me, man. But I see when you explain it like that. I understand, though. I get it.

[DJ Wells]

I got a question for y'all. Well, first I'm gonna ask B. Hen what if he was in that locker room. What you saying, bro? Cause I know you got a lot to say about this team.

[Teague]

Nah, I just not for real. I will be on and beat ass like, bro, come on, you the leader of the team, bro. Step it up, bro. I ain't. You know, Tyrese probably talk like Kirk Franklin. You feel me? I'm Charles Barkley now in that motherfucker, going crazy like, somebody gotta be the leader of the team, bro.

[DJ Wells]

And then I asked you, T for the situation with pg Tell Paul George.

[Teague]

Quit all that soft ass shit. What Adrian Broner said. Oh, boy, shut that soft ass shit.

[DJ Wells]

Adrian Broner being the source of inspiration, as always, always questionable shout out to AB But I ask you this because we look like the PG situation as his frame, you know, wanted to go to Golden State or other situations, and it looked like the Sixers was a rush or a last minute situation. Is that on him for not doing his due diligence to see how the organizations ran, or is it like on Joel and B for not having that culture to bring him there?

[Bishop Hendricks]

Oh, no, it's A. He didn't. Let's make it clear. I don't know pg. I mean, I know him, but I don't know what his thought process was. But that wasn't his first option. Not at all. It was kind of like a Minnesota. I'm not gonna say a Minnesota situation with me. I mean, he wanted to go once he seen the money or whatever, but we knew that wasn't his first option. He wanted to stay in la. All right. His second option was his dad said the Lakers, right? And then Golden State probably was his third option, which they couldn't get it figured out. So the next best thing was. Up next was Philly. It ain't a bad option. You got Joel Embiid, and y'all gonna pay me the most.

[Teague]

Yeah.

[Bishop Hendricks]

All right. But you know, your heart, you know, his heart went in there. For a guy who left an organization like the Pacers, who you were the go to guy, they was gonna give you everything you wanted, all the money in the world because you wanted to get to la, they trade you to okc, you sign back, get money, and then force your way to la. You know what I mean? Like, you know, he didn't want to.

[DJ Wells]

Leave the West Coast.

[Teague]

Yeah.

[Bishop Hendricks]

So that had to be a last resort right there. Sure. And.

[DJ Wells]

And it's showing. Yeah. And just clearly showing. That's why I was like, I ain't mad at him, but I understand. Like, bro, he just like, I'm in a situation, I got to. They pay me what I wanted. Fuck, we gonna figure it out. But that's crazy that the Tyrese Max used to bet on that team.

[Teague]

I don't like that, bro. Free Tyrese, bro. Y'all know I've been standing on Tyrese Dragon. Now, my boy stressed out.

[Bishop Hendricks]

He hurt.

[Teague]

Get him out of there.

[DJ Wells]

But let's get to the joke.

[Teague]

Force the hand, bro.

[DJ Wells]

Did y'all see what they. The video they posted? They were just like during the TV, where everybody else arguing. They had Jerry McCain doing the tick tock.

[Teague]

Hey, that boy, wow.

[DJ Wells]

He don't care.

[Bishop Hendricks]

He probably having a ball.

[DJ Wells]

Kill it.

[Teague]

I'm in the NBA. Them Dukes is gas, bro. His social media is going through the roof.

[Bishop Hendricks]

I love it.

[Teague]

The Dookies, bro. They are still standing behind Jericho McCabe, bro.

[DJ Wells]

Who's a better rookie, Jerry McCain or West side connect Jared? Okay.

[Teague]

All because of his foolishness off the court.

[Bishop Hendricks]

I would have made.

[Teague]

Dalton is locking in. Dalton is 40 is different.

[Bishop Hendricks]

I would have made a YouTube after the meeting.

[DJ Wells]

That would be fine.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Just had a meeting. Started dancing. Tyrese was pissed at Joel, but fuck it.

[DJ Wells]

The voiceover.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Yeah. I would have started doing my nails today. Whatever you doing. Whatever.

[Teague]

His tiktoks are crazy. It ain't never just no. I ain't gonna say it ain't no cool. Everybody. You know, level cool is different, but it's always. That boy is treading line, boy.

[DJ Wells]

Hey, listen, man. Y'all out of pocket on Twitter. Cause y'all been tagging us. They was like, we wonder who leaked it. And they been quote, tweeting, EJ, hey, don't do that to 520 alumni.

[Bishop Hendricks]

All right?

[DJ Wells]

Yeah, definitely.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Eric definitely leaked it.

[Teague]

Eric was the first Charleston.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Eric definitely leaked it. He was like, I didn't sign up for this shit. Eric's on his phoenix.

[DJ Wells]

What?

[Teague]

T always at the grass ain't greeter.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Told his ass that we had that interview. We'll be all right, man. No, the. Yeah.

[DJ Wells]

Free ej, man.

[Teague]

Funny as fuck. Every time so fucked up happened, I always think about this nigga Weeks grass and greener. I said, he want to be an old head, so.

[DJ Wells]

Oh, man. Shout out to what I told you so. But, hey, listen, three and a Sixers if. When did Joel sit it down, man? Because obviously they ain't getting back. I don't believe in this team has the will to give a fuck to get back into a playoff contention. At one point do they decide, all right, this ain't work, we gotta cut our losses.

[Bishop Hendricks]

What you mean just sitting down?

[DJ Wells]

I mean as far as like looking at the operation difference, like you said, maybe looking forward to sitting him down, but I would say maybe 10, 20 games later.

[Bishop Hendricks]

But they sitting down for. They gotta give it to game 40. Like I think they actually gonna make a run, to be honest. I think that team meeting gonna do well. I think they gonna win like four or five in a row. And then when Maxie get back, I think they'll start hooping.

[DJ Wells]

You know, it's funny, I would love to see the stat of the wins and losses after these teams having the players only beaten. If somebody could keep stats to that, that would be fire. I would love to see the couple those meetings have they went well.

[Bishop Hendricks]

I laughed through all of them.

[DJ Wells]

How many people left the team after some of those meetings?

[Bishop Hendricks]

Jimmy got everybody traded. Jimmy got a bunch of people traded. We got Roko now then we had a team meeting. When we got Roko, I got traded. Who else team? I was only had a team meeting. I was in Boston. We had a team meeting. I got traded.

[DJ Wells]

Milwaukee, I retired.

[Bishop Hendricks]

We had a team meeting. I retired. Pretty bad outcomes with every type of team meeting. Oh, Atlanta, we had a team meeting. We went on a 18 game win strength. Like we went on a crazy run. We lost like beginning of that season, we had that crazy season. We started off kind of bad. We was like two and four something. We wasn't good.

[Teague]

Yeah.

[Bishop Hendricks]

And we had a team meeting and we went crazy.

[Teague]

What was that about though? They didn't feel like I had chemistry no more or what.

[Bishop Hendricks]

We were like just not playing well because the year before, Al was hurt. He had towards Peck and he had came back and we kind of had built some chemistry with like Pero. And like we was used to playing a certain way. Cause Pero shot threes, Al didn't shoot threes. And we just had to get used to playing with Al. And we just wasn't having a good season at the beginning of the year. And then it all just clicked and all of a sudden things start going well for us and we end up figuring it out.

[DJ Wells]

That's crazy. Before we get off this topic, when you had to see me, you said you got traded. Did you find out like immediately? They were just like, you know what? Don't, don't worry about Suiting up today or they set you out shooting around?

[Bishop Hendricks]

Nah, the funniest shit, the funniest trade. The first time I got traded was who I get traded. That was in Indiana to Indiana. I was at home. I was here. But I had requested that trade, so I wouldn't count that. But the first. Unexpected. It was still kind of like unexpected, though. You know how you tell somebody you want to get traded but you really don't want to? Like, I was in a. I loved Indiana. I loved Atlanta. Like, I'm like, well, trade me. If y'all give me extension, give me a trade. They like, we're gonna send you to Philly. That's a Spider. What the. Oh, my bad. They like, we go. We go trade.

[DJ Wells]

That shit was crazy.

[Bishop Hendricks]

They like, we go trade you to Philly. This one. Philly was ass. I'm like, hell, nah. I was like, nah, they like, we gonna trade you to Philly. They gonna give us a first round pick. I'm like, man, what the damn? I'm like, not.

[DJ Wells]

They told you, but they was gonna get for you. That's.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Yeah, they like, yeah, we gonna do that. And then I forgot. I think Brett Brown was the coach. And he was like, yeah, you're gonna get an opportunity to, you know, average 25 points or whatever. I'm like, this shit about the BE ass. Then coach bud pulled me to the side, had dinner, was like, I don't want you to leave. I'm like, man, it ain't for me no more. Blah, blah, blah. He's like, where you want to go? I was like, indiana. He was like, I got you. I traded. It happened. Cool. Now, when I got trade from Minnesota, I was talking. So I saw with Minnesota, whatever, we having a game. We playing the pace of. Actually, I'm killing. I think, who was y'all on your team? I think y'all had a little white dude at this time. I don't remember. Maybe it's Darren Collins, one of them. I was having a good game, and I think it had like eight and a quarter. Then the third, I'm like, yeah, going to the fourth. I'm like, yeah, go ahead and get a 20 piece before I get out of here. I'm coming off the bench, too, and I ain't subbed back in. They was like, t Baz got you. I'm like, what the fuck? Fuck you doing? My coaches is trash, man. These niggas is trash. I gotta get Ryan Sanders out. He called, he texted me yesterday, shout out to him, though.

[DJ Wells]

But I was like, he Trash.

[Bishop Hendricks]

I'm talking to him.

[Teague]

Ron is trash.

[Bishop Hendricks]

He was at that time, but he might got up. I loved it. I would say he was trash because I'm like, why would you take me out? I just had eight and a quarter. Like, what we doing?

[DJ Wells]

He was eight.

[Bishop Hendricks]

But I didn't get back in the game. So the next morning, I'm like, I'm going to Ryan. Like, we got to talk about this shit, man. That like, you got me. I go in the office, I'm like, ryan, what's up, man? And Ryan, my age, he like, man, you know, he doing all this. Dude walk in was like, hey, just the guy I was looking for.

[Teague]

NBA is a joke, man.

[Bishop Hendricks]

I was like, huh? He's like, just looking for you. You're getting traded today.

[DJ Wells]

Whoa.

[Bishop Hendricks]

I was like, so you know, you try to. My heart dropped. I'm like, you like, you getting traded. You're gonna be happy where I'm sending you. I'm like, a playoff team. Even better. Atlanta, the fuck I know. I told that story before, but that shit just.

[DJ Wells]

I heard a trauma.

[Bishop Hendricks]

In my book, that shit was hurt. Like, that shit hurt. I ain't gonna lie.

[Teague]

Send that nigga back home.

[DJ Wells]

But keeping it real goes wrong.

[Bishop Hendricks]

I was like, I'm looking at Ryan the whole time. Just like, nah.

[DJ Wells]

Is he looking away?

[Bishop Hendricks]

Yeah, he, like, looking all around like.

[Teague]

I'm like, yeah, Ryan got that slip early.

[Bishop Hendricks]

I wouldn't even got in the game. Like, he should have told me. I would have just.

[Teague]

We all see this nigga playing too hard tonight.

[DJ Wells]

Yeah, no injuries. That D already. You are not about to mess this straight up.

[Bishop Hendricks]

That D already on vetting.

[Teague]

You are sham got away from this trade, so please, sit your ass down.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Get his ass out of there.

[DJ Wells]

Hey, what's crazy is, y'all remember Harrison Barnes got traded at halftime?

[Bishop Hendricks]

Yeah. That's how that shit felt.

[Teague]

That's why I'm saying, I wonder if it's just fraud. Coaches just be like, man, fuck the script. Hey, N. This is why you not playing. They about to send your ass here tomorrow.

[Bishop Hendricks]

So just something like that.

[DJ Wells]

It's something like that, but they won't tell you. I know a couple. They work for the Patriots organization. I won't snitch them out, but there's some people who will be real about that situation, especially depending upon they situation. Organization, too. Cause if they up out there, they about to move around.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Mike Woodson was like that.

[DJ Wells]

And Larry Drew shout out to Woody.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Woody was the realest, though. I ain't rock with Woody. But Rudy was real, though. He'll tell you, hey, man, it's my last year. I'm not about to be playing you. You was a rookie, man. I'm trying to win and get another job, man. I don't got time to be guessing with your ass.

[Teague]

I said, damn, you sound just like him too, though.

[Bishop Hendricks]

I was like, that's real.

[Teague]

Yeah, man.

[DJ Wells]

Shout out to the Hawks, man.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Shout out to them.

[Teague]

A little bit of NFL news. The jets fired the gm, the Allegra said. Not much to talk about there. They have fired everybody. I don't know who has left. Aaron Rodgers is about to become the GM of the jets next year when he steps down. Because he should be done playing football at this point, man, he fucked.

[Teague]

Yeah, I have nothing to say about them.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Shout out to the goat, man. You go ahead and retire on a high note, man.

[DJ Wells]

I don't know if it's a high note, but just go ahead and leave, bro.

[Bishop Hendricks]

You Aaron Rodgers, he's taking everybody out with him.

[Teague]

20 years in the game, man. You stamped.

[DJ Wells]

He need no brown hall of Fame.

[Teague]

You got the numbers. Just chill out, bro. They'll hit you some hoes and chill out, bro.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Why y'all trying to put hoes on everybody?

[Teague]

You just saying, bro. Just go out with a bang, bro.

[DJ Wells]

Shout out to a rod, man. Give well soon to the whole jets organization. Shout out to Russell Westbrook. Man made history last night. 200th career triple double.

[Bishop Hendricks]

The most ever.

[DJ Wells]

NBA history.

[Bishop Hendricks]

I ain't never have a triple, Dough boy.

[DJ Wells]

He got 200 to spare for him. Took care of the Grizzlies. 122 to 110.

[Teague]

All that motherfucker passing he was doing.

[Bishop Hendricks]

I had a bunch of double doubles. I ain't gonna get no boards.

[DJ Wells]

Lotta rebounds.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Yeah.

[DJ Wells]

You play with a lot of players? Yeah, it was last clean the shots.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Yeah, them niggas used to get mad if you got rebounds.

[Teague]

You had three.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Al Horford. Get the fuck out of there. Get out of here. What you doing down here?

[Teague]

Playing with my numbers?

[Bishop Hendricks]

Yeah, facts, Josh. Get out of here. Josh. The first one said that shit to me. I remember. I went. I stopped blocking out cause of that shit.

[Teague]

This is a coach, y'all.

[Bishop Hendricks]

I'm a coach, but that's. The NBA's about stats. Like in college and high school, it's about winning NBA. You want to win, but you gotta get your stats and win.

[DJ Wells]

That's a fact.

[Bishop Hendricks]

They used to be like, why you get out here?

[Teague]

That's some good game.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Yeah, why? That ain't your job. Let me do my job. And then they be mad when somebody else get off as a rebound. Block him out. Nah, nah, it's your job.

[Teague]

Cause Kyle was. He didn't give a two shits.

[DJ Wells]

Kyle wouldn't even leak it back.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Kyle was a rebound to guard though.

[Teague]

But I'm saying, though, like with them, you probably felt more away than him.

[Bishop Hendricks]

What about rebounding?

[Teague]

Like when they like, if he tell, if they telling him, like, move around like, oh, I didn't get.

[Bishop Hendricks]

I didn't want to go rebound. I learned my lesson. I got an elbow from Dwight Howard, my nose got busted, my tooth got pushed back. I said, yeah, I'm cool in Orlando. Yeah, I tried to. You know how you action figured? Dwight get the rebound. You try to like steal it. Oh, and he turned around. Bam. I never tried stealing. I don't want no rebound, Nacho. Too bad. I was cool off a rebound. Like, what? Cool, bro.

[Teague]

That's crazy.

[DJ Wells]

Nah, listen, that's a lesson right there. The NBA is a business. As much as people feel like they get paid too much money, however, it is still a job. And everybody got performance based incentives at their job. So them stats is the reason why people get paid. But hey, Jamal Murray looked good last night. 27 to 6, Freaky Porter, 24 11. Westbrook 12, 14 to 10. Man, I'm happy that Russell Westbrook is getting the respect he deserves. Listen, we was all questionable about how he was going to be indifferent, but so far it's looked so good, man.

[Teague]

He at the end, bro. I think he chilling now. This is the Paul George that you know. This is what Paul George wanted like a whole lot.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Yeah, he wanted this chill like, I.

[DJ Wells]

Can come and contribute, bro, but y'all.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Ain'T relying on me, bro. He getting paid whatever.

[DJ Wells]

He getting vet minimum.

[Teague]

Yeah, yeah.

[Bishop Hendricks]

And Paul George getting 40, 50 a year.

[DJ Wells]

So it's a big difference.

[Teague]

It is, it is. But I'm just talking about the mentality. Both of them probably had the same mentality going into these respective. Russell. Russell a dog, bro.

[Bishop Hendricks]

He top 75 MVP. Hopefully he can get the chip.

[DJ Wells]

I just hate the way that like the Lakers team was towards his legacy. I hate that man, because the way he was disrespected in that time period. And obviously he didn't always play the best.

[Teague]

It's not him fault though, bro. The Russell Westbrook always been painted as like a menace in the league. And everybody that done played with him, bro, said he them, they're the best teammate they ever had.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Facts, bro.

[DJ Wells]

A solid one all around, bro.

[Teague]

Yeah, I don't. I think it was. I'm blame Darvin, bro. Yeah.

[DJ Wells]

I just feel like he should. I mean that little tarnish on his career is crazy, bro. Cause Russell Rhodes, like you said, hall of fame, first ballot top 75. One of the best point guards ever, bro. Coldest. Don't nobody got 200 triple doubles, bro. And what's crazy is Jokic is already climbing on that list, bro. I think he's like buck 30, buck 20. He's down there fourth on that list already.

[Bishop Hendricks]

That's pretty impressive too.

[Teague]

He don't give a damn, but he.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Averaged a triple double for what, two seasons in a row?

[DJ Wells]

Come on, bro.

[Bishop Hendricks]

That's incredible, bro.

[DJ Wells]

Three.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Three.

[DJ Wells]

It was three even. I thought it was two, but yeah, that's even.

[Teague]

That's crazy in this era of basketball, bro. Like shout out to Oscar, but hey.

[Bishop Hendricks]

This is the craziest athlete. He's one of the craziest athletes ever, bro.

[Teague]

Oscar wasn't that athletic, bro.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Do you know how hard you gotta play? Even though Steven Adams and them people always talk about how he blocked people out on wrestler. Go get the rebound.

[DJ Wells]

Go talk about that. Yep.

[Bishop Hendricks]

But like, like you just said, people used to block out people. And I still would miss the rematch.

[DJ Wells]

To this day.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Like at the factory before rebound be coming. Me, I miss it. Like it's impressive.

[Teague]

You gotta have a knack for that, bro.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Yeah, but you gotta have the energy and the effort too though, bro.

[DJ Wells]

The one like you said.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Yeah, like for him to do that getting 10 rebounds in the NBA game as a 63 guard is crazy, bro.

[DJ Wells]

It's crazy.

[Bishop Hendricks]

And the average that shout out to him, bro. He won all time greats, man.

[DJ Wells]

And even the nipsey tribute game. The 20, 2020. Come on bro. You get 20 rebounds in the game as a guard.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Did they even put your mind up to do that? Yeah, bro.

[Teague]

Him and Rondo was always at the top for me. I'm sure it was other great rebounding guards, but them was always the two top for me.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Oh, for sure.

[DJ Wells]

And when you mentioned Trey Young stats yesterday, being like Rondo, I went back and looked at some old Rondo games where Rondo may have six points that didn't have like 20 assists in 15 rebounds. Like Ronald used to dominate games and not have more than 10 points.

[Teague]

He maximized playing with three other great players, bro. To have KG, Paul and Ray at your disposal, bro. You you out of pocket to get six assists a Game.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Yeah, I hated playing Rondo.

[DJ Wells]

I can only imagine. He too active.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Yeah, he. Cause he would go under. He. It's called the dunker. He would play in the dunker. So.

[Teague]

Yeah, explain that.

[Bishop Hendricks]

At the. He would play under the basket. So most guards play out in the perimeter. Biggs being a dunker, they get dunks and stuff. But Rondo was different. You'll see Jrue Holiday do this every now and then, too. He'll play in a dunker below the basket. He get offensive rebounds. Rebounds, quick lay ins and stuff like that. So he would pass the ball to ticketing them and just cut and go to the dunker. And you like, man, what the fuck? So you down there, they shoot. He down there trying to get offensive rebound. So you trying to block out guards. Mike. Now, in high school, you work on blocking out, but in the NBA, guards don't work on blocking out.

[Teague]

Yeah.

[Bishop Hendricks]

And he'd be getting offensive rebounds, kicking them out for threes or doing them fake passes and all that shit. He was just a nightmare to play. Cause he was always moving. But he wasn't known as a shooter at that time. So to still be effective like that, you had to be a hell of a smart player and a good player.

[Teague]

So you running around all game with him for sure.

[Bishop Hendricks]

What n you blocking out. You doing all the stuff. You don't practice when you play Rondo in Westbrook, like, obviously Westbrook was more of a score. So you getting ISO post up, and then he gonna go for the offensive rebound. So you getting a whole full game when you play him. And then he don't give. Not saying he can't play defense, but he ain't really give a fuck. Like, he'll give you effort. He'll try, he'll reach. But if you score, he like, all right, bitch, now you gotta guard me. He'll run full head of steam at you. Mind you, you got kd, James Harden, all these other dudes on the team, and he. You know what I mean? I remember one time we played in Atlanta, and we was beating him the whole game. I was having a pretty good game. It was my last year in Atlanta. We ended up winning the game. I ended up having a good fourth quarter or whatever, but the whole game we was beating him. It was a smooth game to. All of a sudden they got KD on his team. He goes crazy. He has a moment where he scored on me like five times in a row. And you can hear. I never forget. I was watching it one day. And that's the problem. Nah, Dominique Wilkins was like, ooh, when somebody get cooking like that, ain't nothing you can do. And he hit a pull up, he hit a pull up like a hesy pull on a midi. And he like smacked his leg and was like, motherfucker, like that. And I came down, I ran full steam and I went by him and got a layup. But we started going back and forth and I end up hitting a shot in a fourth quarter, like a layup to win the game or something like that. But I just remember that moment where he started like, damn, kd, right on this wing. And he don't give a fuck, he just scores five times in a row. Like you are different, like you got a different kind of mindset. And that's why he won the top 75. Cause he don't give a damn for.

[DJ Wells]

Sure, man, like you said, for him to be where he was ranked at high school, to kill a UCLA to come to the league and make himself into an mvp, that just shows the will and determination, man. Shout out to Russell Westbrook.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Good to see you, bro.

[DJ Wells]

Good to see you. Killer, Killer. A couple last night's games we gotta get through. The Nets took care of the Hornets last night, 116 and 115. Cam Johnson with crazy last night. B mill 29.

[Teague]

Good job.

[DJ Wells]

Kevin helped cover you on the parlaysky.

[Teague]

Good job.

[DJ Wells]

I gotta ask, man. Your man Charles Lee sat lamelo in the fourth from the clutch yesterday for Tre, man. How do y'all feel about that?

[Bishop Hendricks]

That's that, that's that Bud shit.

[Teague]

You better stop Professor Ogilvy. Ask me out of there.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Did they win?

[Teague]

Don't teach no lessons.

[Bishop Hendricks]

No, that's that Bud shit. Bud used to do that.

[Teague]

I mean, but what is it for though, bro?

[DJ Wells]

Because he said Trey man, Trey man had a good game yesterday. He said Trey man was giving us a little bit more in the forfeiture.

[Teague]

He my best player on the floor, bro.

[Bishop Hendricks]

That's that Bud shit.

[Teague]

Nail biter, bro.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Bud used to do that.

[Teague]

Nothing on losing to the Nets, bro. My best man on the and on the floor.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Cause like we used to do that, like, you know, use a starter, like shoving Mac used to finish games out. Dennis Schroeder used to finish games. I used to be pissed. I remember one time in the playoffs shoving and then finished the whole game. Dennis did that. The shot Paul Pierce hit. I called game. I wasn't in the game.

[Teague]

You called game.

[Bishop Hendricks]

That's what Paul Pierre, not what Paul Pierce called.

[DJ Wells]

It was a bank. I called game.

[Teague]

Damn, Jeff.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Nah, I wasn't in the game. I didn't play the fourth.

[Teague]

Oh, okay.

[Bishop Hendricks]

But that's kind of shit Bud used to do. Like, if somebody had it going in the third, and they started the fourth quarter and it was a game was going, the team was playing good, you'd be like, fuck it, we gonna ride with that. And as a player, you'd be pissed. I know LaMelo was pissed. Cause he like, shit.

[DJ Wells]

You can tell.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Fuck that. Don't.

[Teague]

But was y'all winning those games when Shell and Dan was in?

[Bishop Hendricks]

We did. We won one playoff game. We played Indiana. Shell and Mike Scott got hot. They end up hitting like eight or nine threes apiece, like to combine or whatever, and they. We end up blowing them out. Third quarter, they end up taking off. Beginning of the fourth, we end up blowing them out. And they just kept them in, which was cool. We won. I ain't care. I'm hyped. Especially. Cause Shel was my dog, so I'm hyped. But then that Dennis Schroeder game. Dennis was playing kind of good, too. But you just be like, man, I'm supposed to be in. Cause in the next game we played, I mean, we win the game, we ended up winning the series. I was in the rest of the games, but I was just mad at that moment, like the fuck. But he used to do that a lot, though. That's why I only played like 28 minutes a game, man.

[Teague]

Yeah, we talked about that.

[DJ Wells]

That's interesting. So the, you know, Charles Lee lineage coming from Bud, you know what I'm saying?

[Bishop Hendricks]

That's some bullshit.

[DJ Wells]

Not even people figuring that's like a moral victory thing. But it's one of those I'm setting the culture type situation. And a lot of people feel like that team needs some culture. So I wonder if that's beneficial or not. But Lamelo was pissed. You could tell in his face that he was hot last night for sure.

[Teague]

Yeah, I'm struggling, bro. Bro. At the end of the game, believe in me. Yeah, Rob believing me, bro. Like, I'm shooting horrible tonight, but I play 82 games. Mass majority of these games, bro. I'm doing my thing out here. Shout out to Tre, man, or whoever, is whoever, but put me in the game, bro.

[Bishop Hendricks]

And that's the difference between, like a veteran coach and I'm. Bud was a young coach when he would do that, you know, you just. You know, they come from Pop. Pop would play. Pop was an og, but he'll play anybody. Like, if you playing good, Pop Will ride it out. And then Pop was the guy. Like, the players wasn't the guy. Like, Tim Duncan obviously was the guy. But Pop was just as big as Tim Duncan in San Antonio. Facts. So Pop could do no wrong. Like, he's still there. Obviously he can't do no wrong. So they came from that. Like, anybody can play. Like, if probably playing. Having a good game. Like you was on a 10 day and you started hooping. We believe in you and we build these players from nowhere. Not everybody can do that.

[Teague]

Yeah.

[Bishop Hendricks]

So Charles. I love Charles, but that wasn't the best. You can't do that. Yeah. Not with Lamelo. Not with your team ass.

[Teague]

Yeah, bro. We sad, bro.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Yeah, you can't really.

[DJ Wells]

And then he had a breakdown about it, and it was kind of like, yeah, he's like Lamont, as you see on the screen. He's been great for us all year. He's been great tonight. But you know, Trey, man, just gave a little bit more Nice. You know, just, we're winning. I'm like, that's a way to piss off your star.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Yeah, you can't.

[Teague]

You can't believe in me, bro. If I'm having it happens like that in the NBA, I could be having an off night all game, bro. Let me take the last shot, bro. My chances is better than this nigga.

[Bishop Hendricks]

But that's how you got. That's why I said Kenny Axon gets it. You see Darius Garland, 3 for 21. He was in at the end of that game.

[DJ Wells]

Most definitely.

[Bishop Hendricks]

And you gotta think Ty Jerome was playing great.

[DJ Wells]

Yeah, and so was Craig Porter Jr. Yeah.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Nah, come on, come on, DG. Let's get out there. You'll figure it out. Like, that's the difference, bro.

[DJ Wells]

Most definitely, man. Crazy game, man. Shout out to Ness for getting the dub. The Mask took care of the pills yesterday. 132, 91. Nothing much to talk about. Belt to ass situation. Luka went crazy 26. Clay had 19. Kyrie had 18. The game yesterday, y'all went back and forth on spurs took care of the Thunder yesterday without WEMBY. SGA had 32. 7. Jalen Williams went crazy 27. 10. CP looking like Venture. CP. 14 and 11. Keldon Johnson was murdered yesterday. Smooth 22 piece.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Keldon Johnson had a moment out there.

[DJ Wells]

Nah, he was out there getting to it. He gonna come up in the last segment of this show. And also Harrison Barnes looking like it's 2015 again. 28. I be forgetting that Harrison Barnes played on the warriors team, like, and got that first trip with them.

[Teague]

He's a reason, bro. The big reason, bro, why they won. I think he should have got that MVP over Iggy. I love you know how I feel about Egg.

[DJ Wells]

Hell of a take.

[Teague]

I think Harrison Barnes was like that. Was they Andrew Wiggins, bro, back then.

[Bishop Hendricks]

So. Yeah, I don't know about that one.

[Teague]

But it was, bro.

[Bishop Hendricks]

I agree. I agree. He's a good player. I don't know about the USC bias.

[DJ Wells]

He was locked in.

[Alex Cross]

Respect.

[Teague]

Respect, bro. They was really. Iggy stole the show, bro.

[DJ Wells]

Yeah. And there's a couple people getting named, but I don't know if Iggy should got that files. Mvp. I think they still had stuff messed.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Up for that, but Shout out to Iggy was on Kai. Kai's stream. Yeah, we love you.

[Teague]

You can't wait to have Iggy.

[DJ Wells]

And also they try to pull that into the conversation as well. They was like, all right, Lamelo. Like, you've been wilding in these post conferences, man. Maybe there's a little pow pow, but that's still crazy time, bro.

[Teague]

Don't discipline me that way, bro. Nothing.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Sometimes you gotta holler at me, sometimes.

[DJ Wells]

You gotta pop out niggas.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Yeah. Sometimes you gotta help a person help themselves. Damn.

[DJ Wells]

But, yeah, that was a crazy game. A lot of people want some money on that. Mess up a lot of parlays the other way.

[Teague]

Who's sending him these sayings, man?

[DJ Wells]

For real, bro.

[Teague]

Who is sending my man these sayings?

[DJ Wells]

Y'all crazy.

[Bishop Hendricks]

I'm an og, bro.

[DJ Wells]

OG These words of wisdom is crazy.

[Bishop Hendricks]

You gotta help a Help himself sometime, bro. For real. Y'all never heard that say that to me, man. I'm gonna take this. I'm gonna take these cars from you, bro. I'm gonna help you help yourself.

[Teague]

Wow, man.

[DJ Wells]

Like Gorilla said, end of the day, they gotta end.

[Bishop Hendricks]

You feel me?

[DJ Wells]

Tonight's games, Pelicans at Cavs. Cavs. Definitely gonna win. Bouncing back after a loss yesterday for sure, which I got Cavs.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Yeah, I got Cavs. You said they playing the Pelicans? Pelicans down, everybody.

[DJ Wells]

Yeah, well, soon. Bulls at Bucks.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Shout out to him, man.

[DJ Wells]

Bulls at Bucks.

[Teague]

Bulls.

[Bishop Hendricks]

I'm gonna take the bucks, bro. I think we found our groove.

[Teague]

I hope so.

[DJ Wells]

Every time I have went against the Bulls, these past couple of games, they have won. So I'm gonna rock with the Bulls today. Just for shits and giggles, Pacers at Rockets.

[Justin Jefferson]

Rockets.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Y'all don't do good, y'all. Not that good in Houston, too. Road team. I'm gonna take it.

[Teague]

My Lord.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Take the Rockets.

[DJ Wells]

We're not a good team anywhere right now. But I don't know if the Rockets classify as a good team. Cause if they are, then I feel like we'll win that game. But if there's. If they're a little bit below good, then they go whoop our ass. So I'm going to go with the Rockets tonight. Sixers at Grizzlies.

[Bishop Hendricks]

I'm going to go with the Sixers. They had a team meeting. I think they going to bounce back.

[DJ Wells]

Get a dough back for a team meeting.

[Teague]

Yeah, Sixers. Grizz. They down, Joe.

[DJ Wells]

Yeah, for sure. I'm going to go with the Sixers as well. Blazers at Thunder.

[Teague]

Thunder by 30.

[DJ Wells]

Yeah, thunder. About the.

[Bishop Hendricks]

I'm going to take the absence. I'm going to take the Blazers.

[DJ Wells]

You going with the Blazers?

[Bishop Hendricks]

Yeah, I'm going to take the Blazers. For some reason, I just think the Thunder, they going to take the Blazers.

[Teague]

100.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Nah, I don't want bad. I don't care enough about them.

[DJ Wells]

100 on the Blazers is. Is diabolical work. He trying to pay for things. Give it off that bit. Damn.

[Teague]

I gotta throw it out there.

[DJ Wells]

Y'all crazy Knicks ass Sons. That's gonna be a good game.

[Bishop Hendricks]

I'm gonna take the Knicks roll with the next.

[Teague]

Give me Sons.

[DJ Wells]

Yo, Hawks at Warriors. What's up?

[Teague]

Oh, man, Draymond, about 30.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Yeah, yeah. I'm gonna go with the Warriors. Every time I bet against a team that I like, they always win. So, yeah, let's go with the Warriors.

[DJ Wells]

Did y'all see the animation of the Legos that they made of Draymond holding Zach Edey leg when he fell?

[Bishop Hendricks]

Nah.

[DJ Wells]

Oh, I'm putting it in the chat. It's hilarious, man. Draymond, you're not beating up allegations, brother. It will soon. Magic at Clippers.

[Teague]

Magic on the winning streak. But the Clippers. Clippers got them tonight.

[Bishop Hendricks]

It depends if Norman Powell play. If Norman Powell don't play, I'm going with the Magic.

[Teague]

I ain't mad at that.

[DJ Wells]

I ain't going to get some magic right now. They going crazy right now. Listen, some great basketball yesterday verified Buckets be here. Who was getting to it last night.

[Teague]

I'm only speaking on Westside Connect. That's it all rookie team, first team, baby. That's who I'm rolling with.

[DJ Wells]

37. 9 for 12 from 3, man. I'm gonna show some love to my Louisville guy Donvan Mitchell, man, 35 piece last night. He gets to defend the champs. Show why he belonged to me in conversations for mvp and one of the best two guards in the NBA last night for show.

[Bishop Hendricks]

I'm gonna go with my dog, man. 520 alum Jake Tatum. Yes, sir. Big night last night. 3312 and 7. He was hooping. Took over the game.

[DJ Wells]

Yes, sir.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Made some big shots. Led that team to a win against an undefeated team. Go with my dog.

[DJ Wells]

Now listen, you always talk about that situation with JB passing the ball. Hey, last night he had some great isos. Him and Donovan Mitchell was going back and forth, but he was gunning last night. I'm like, hey, man, you can swing it a little bit more. I know you that man know you follow me. You can swing it a little more.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Gang, don't worry about what they trying to do.

[Teague]

Best of all, bro, they trying, bro. No, we not come on the show.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Let's talk about JB for sure. And bring some shoes. And bring some of them shoes, what.

[Teague]

They call mooching ass, man. Pass the ball, bro.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Yeah, bring some of them.

[Teague]

Pass the ball.

[DJ Wells]

Swing that one time.

[Alex Cross]

Yes, bro.

[Teague]

I'm hard like Jason could have had 50.

[Bishop Hendricks]

No, he couldn't.

[Teague]

Could have had 50, bro.

[DJ Wells]

I ain't. He could have had 40, but he was J.

[Teague]

We had 33.

[Bishop Hendricks]

JB, you a champ. Don't worry about that.

[DJ Wells]

Most definitely. You know way more than us about this respect, King.

[Bishop Hendricks]

Don't worry about them.

[DJ Wells]
