Come on, man. We fresh off game three, man. We gonna talk about that in a minute, but let's talk about some NBA rumors first. Man, the Knicks keep calling people, man. Please figure out what y' all gonna do. But it is hilarious at the fact that the Knicks coaching job is overshadowed in the NBA Finals. So let's talk about it. We here, man. Got some reports this morning, man. They're supposed to be reaching out to Taylor Jenkins. Supposed to be reaching out to Mike Brown.
DJ Wells

At least they calling people who is not working for other team.
Mook
Yeah, they done tapped in a free agency, but I. I ain't rolling with Mike Brown for the New York job. Nah, bro.
Tom Brokaw
Man, it's hilarious the fact that they called the Hawks yesterday. Well, quit. Everybody just like, hey, quit playing it off on Charles. Buckley was going crazy. He was just like, how y' all fire team did not have a backup plan at this point.
DJ Wells
Y' all begging, bro.
Host 1
And that's crazy.
Mook
And that's New York. You would never think that New York could be begging. It should be like, niggas, like, waiting in line at the door for new.
DJ Wells
That's a tough job, bro.
Tom Brokaw
We can't lose, bro.
Host 1
Us fire t made to the Eastern Conference.
DJ Wells
It don't make me be like, I'mma sign up for that, bro.
Host 1

Mook
You got to call VIP First.
DJ Wells
Like, do we have coach? No, bro.

DJ Wells
Yeah, like, what are we talking about?
Tom Brokaw
Quit playing on my phone. The Knicks get well soon, man. That is crazy. Also, demarcus Cousins is suspended from that league for the rest of the season.
DJ Wells
Rightfully, the rest of his life, bro.
Tom Brokaw
The funny part about it is, did you see how they described it for grabbing his gesture at a fan? Yeah, that's the crazy suspension.
Mook
Just come back to the crib, bro.
Host 1
All right.
DJ Wells
Do something else.
Mook
Yeah, it's cool.
Tom Brokaw
Hey, man, they clipped him up with the blue face. That was crazy. Free because, man. But let's get straight to it, man. Game three paces, took care of business. Last night in the bridge. 116 to 107 victory. Man, shout out to Benedict Matheran. Went crazy. 27 4. Most points off the bench since Jason Terry in 2011 finals. You know how that went. Tyrese Halberton showed up last night, real aggressive as we asked him to be. Almost a triple double. 22, 11 and 9. Pascal Siakam went crazy as well with 21 and 6. Hey, man, Jayla Williams game travel yesterday for sure. He had 26, 6 and 3, and SJ had 24, 8. And Chet showed up with 20, 10 and 2 assists yesterday. All right, man. I know we talked about a little bit last night, man, but let's break it down, man. That was a solid game yesterday. I'll go around the room. I'll start off with you, Jeff. Who was your player of the game yesterday?
Host 1
Tyrese Halliburton. Okay. Tyrese Halliburton, he did what he's supposed to do. He played aggressively. He was downhill. He made the other team. You know, he applied pressure to that team defensively. He had Lu Dort running all around the court trying to chase him around, but he was just aggressive the whole game, and he made plays for others, man. When Tyrese Halliburton has a big assist night, we know that the Pacer's probably gonna win. When he's playing downhill and he got a big assist night, Pacers are a tough team to beat.
Tom Brokaw
Most definitely, man. Shout out to my homie, she. Yesterday, he tweeted before the game. He was like, for the Pacers to win, tyrese gotta have 22 smacked it right there. That's crazy. All right, Mook, who was your player of the game?
DJ Wells
Just the Pacers bench, bro. Okay, Obie toppin, Benedict Matheran, TJ McConnell, Ben Shepard, bro. Everybody had good energy, made shots TA McConnell in the first half, bro. His energy was crazy.
Tom Brokaw
Come on, bro.
DJ Wells
He was all over the court, bro. Still screaming with the crowd. They fed off that, man. Just the whole Pacers bench, bro.
Tom Brokaw
Come on, man. Shout out to my boy, TJ Nash. First player in finals history with 10 points and five steals. All right, B here, that's crazy. And hey, boy, hey. We needed all that. We needed all that to win yesterday.
Host 1
It's crazy, the records they be having.
Tom Brokaw
Yeah.
Host 1
Nah, I'm just saying, like, that'd be, like, amazing. I'd be like, damn, it's a new record broke every day. Like, I feel like you just said Benedict Matthew, the first person with 27 points off the bench of Jason Terry, like, damn, years Ago.
Mook
That's a long time.
Host 1
Word. That's a long time. That is a long time for somebody not to get buckets off the bench.
Tom Brokaw
Yeah, yeah. And if you not tapped in, boy, Jason Terry was frying the heat up. He was killing.
Host 1
Yeah, for sure my boy was killing.
Tom Brokaw
RB hand, man. What's up? I know you know you wanted to check the show up. He had a great first quarter, my boy.
Mook
Yeah. But I'm gonna give it to Pascal, though.
Tom Brokaw
Okay? You going P Skills?
Mook
Yeah. Freaky P. He the leader of the team, bro. He the leader of the team. Without him, it probably get wicked.
Tom Brokaw
I like the energy.
Mook
He is small. He a small market guy, bro. For sure. Like, great. Damn near. If he win a chip, bro, you gotta put him up there. It's one of the greatest second options ever, bro.
Tom Brokaw
All right? Now, if He Skills get a chip, is he going to hall of Fame with two rings?
Host 1
He going to hall of Fame anyway.
Tom Brokaw
Okay?
Mook
Yeah, he going.
Host 1
He already going to the hall of Fame.
Mook
I'm just saying, he's really, like, legit under the radar, bro. Nobody talks about Pascal Siakam, bro.
DJ Wells
They don't.
Tom Brokaw
Hey, Mr. 20 a night, bro.
Mook
A tall people all respect the P for sure.
Host 1
All Star Max deals. He going to the hall of Fame.
Mook
Yeah.
Tom Brokaw
Spicy P is a hell of a nickname, so I can't call you that, man, but shout out to P Skills for sure. We talked about the bench, man, deciding factor in all these games. It was no joke last night. Patience. Bench went crazy. But I'm going to get my game ball, man. To Andrew Nemhart. Nemhardt played great defense on SGA yesterday.
Host 1
He did.
Tom Brokaw
Got a couple Tommy Buckets when we needed him. But he played really solid defense yesterday, man. We thought Neesmith might be the one who would take that assignment. He was getting fried yesterday. Even though he contributed as usual, he couldn't hold J Dub for nothing. But shout out to Nemhardt, man. Holding down the MVP to 24 points. It is not an easy task, man.
Host 1
You know, I knew that they was about to win the game. How Nemhardt came out. He came out and, like, just straight push sga. And then SGA pushed him back and got the offensive foul. I said, pacer's gonna win. I mean, I already had Patriots winning game three, but that energy right there told me a lot. I was like, the arena about to be crazy.
Tom Brokaw
We drew two fouls in the first. Like six.
Host 1
Yeah. I was like, they about to go crazy in here.
DJ Wells
How you feel about Jalen Williams killing Shay Pretty much Killing and Chet killing. And y' all still lost, bro.
Mook
Down to the end, though. I mean, they had great first halves. They kind of fumbled in the second half. They got a little tough. They switched it up on them for real. So that's what it is. The second half play kind of killed them. That's how I feel.
Tom Brokaw
Yeah, man. You're looking at the comparison. It's just crazy. 48 points from the Pacers.
Mook
Yeah.
Tom Brokaw
18 from the Thunder. A 30 point deficit like that is crazy.
Host 1
Yeah.
Mook
And it was still a decent game, though.
DJ Wells
That's the game, bro.
Mook
That. Yeah, right there. You cooked?
Host 1
Yeah.
Tom Brokaw
If we don't get that second win by 30.
Mook
Yeah, yeah, you done for.
Tom Brokaw
We don't get that second win with, like you said, TJ Nas getting some of them steals and stuff. It could have got Wicked for sure. Cause. Oh, because he came out swinging. Yeah, they did, man. What a game yesterday, man. Shout out to Tyrese for being aggressive. This is all we've asked for. We ain't going to have no more superstar conversations, you know, I'm saying until they lose again. But when he plays like this, this is the type of team that can win a championship. Everybody all hands on deck. He was aggressive. He had the vibes hot.
DJ Wells
I wonder why he take a game or two off, bro. Like, why does he do that? Just be aggressive, bro. You ain't got to get 40, just 2ft in the paint and make plays, bro.
Mook
You probably know about the fix, man. Push this to six or seven.
Tom Brokaw
Oh, you know the script.
Mook
Yeah, Push the six or seven, man.
Tom Brokaw
Yeah. I looked at the graphic last night. He had shot more shots in the first half that he did. Like, total of game one and two in the first three quarters. Like, come on, bro. I don't even care if you miss it. Just keep shooting.
DJ Wells
Just be aggressive.
Mook
Shout out to the city, too, man. They was outside last night, man.
Host 1
It was.
Tom Brokaw
Yeah. Under control, though.
Host 1
No, he's under control.
Tom Brokaw
IPD was on top of the cars with the yapper. Said, yeah, y' all can have fun right here.
Host 1
That's what you sent me, Mike. The club that looked weak as hell. I ain't know what he was saying. I thought somebody was about to fight or something. Like, clubs with.
DJ Wells
On a Wednesday.
Mook
My fool's in these bars on these clubs. So shout out to the city, man. I mean, if. Look, if. If the Pacers win, it better go up. A lot of cities can't say they did that. The Fever won, The Colts won, Pacers win. We did that after 2000 talk about it. Charlotte could never. Atlanta could never. Chicago could never.
Host 1
Don't do that.
Mook
San Antonio could never affect Antonio.
Tom Brokaw
They got a lot of chicks.
DJ Wells
You got a chance.
Mook
I don't give a about San Antonio.
Tom Brokaw
Them all right, Charles, Marcus, let's go.
Mook

DJ Wells
I'm not a Back in the day.
Host 1
No, you ain't got no.
Mook
I'm talking about our major. Yeah, they did win, but we Talking about after 2000 though. Fever, Colts, Pacers win. How many other cities can say they did that?
DJ Wells
Nobody.
Mook
Gotta put some respect on the city. I'm not a Pacer fan, but who else did that?
Tom Brokaw
Come on, man.
Mook
With a major sports. We don't got a baseball team.
Tom Brokaw
But this is a sports shout out to the Indians. They get jiggy too.
Mook
You at least got to show some love to this.
Tom Brokaw
Talk about it being here.
DJ Wells
It's a sports state, baby.
Tom Brokaw
Yeah, yeah.
Mook
I'm kind of standing on that. Like all these other cities, y' all got all these other major sports teams. We got three after 2000, bro. Yeah, so I with that shout out to the city for sure. I'm still not a patri fans, but I with y energy.
Tom Brokaw

DJ Wells
I'm with the movement.
Mook
I'm not with the patience. I'm with the city movement though, for sure.
Tom Brokaw
I'll take it for sure. Mike about to give us episodes. We keep cussing it first 15 minutes, but we gonna move on to super chat. Asia said, who y' all taking in their prime start a team. Steve Nash or CP3? The stats are pretty similar, actually. CP3 without a question. One of the best PGs of all time. I know C. Nash got two MVP.
DJ Wells
That's crazy. He a two time MVP.
Tom Brokaw
Yeah.
DJ Wells
That's CP3.
Tom Brokaw
Yeah, bro.
Host 1
That's Christopher. Most gas MV ever talk about it.
Mook
And if you did it on multiple.
Tom Brokaw
Teams, the 06 stats, if you look to see who was in contention and everybody else that's around him in that situation, it's crazy that he got the mvp. No disrespect to Steve Nash, but that's crazy. Jones bones in the super chat said, dj why is Terry Crews a Pacer celebrity mascot? My boy look like an oil down black Mannequin off that pill in the jail jersey. I have so many things to say. If we lost that game because Terry Crews was back courtside, I was about to lose it. But you know what? We got dub yesterday. So I'm going stall my boy out, man.
Host 1
Terry Cruz, man.
Tom Brokaw
Defun Denzel. Leslie in the super chat says, Jeff, your prime. Would you rather win a chip with Indiana or your Hawks? And why B you the goat DJ the best hawks on YouTube, y' all. Get my dog mook a seat at the grove table.

Real life, bro.
Host 1
World life. When I go back to Atlanta, it's like would have been a mayor. It's different, bro.
Mook
It. It. It is. It is because of now. What? But if you would have won the championship here, bro.
Host 1
Yeah. Nah, I'm saying it would have been different for me. Cause that's where I got drafted. That's where I started my career. So if I would have won when we was in Atlanta, I grew up here. Yeah, I did. But they ain't pick me. They did skip me at some point.
Tom Brokaw
They picked him, though.
Host 1
They skipped.
Mook
I told you. Come on home.
DJ Wells
Yeah.
Host 1
I mean, after I done tore that room up, at least they wanted you. After I done had all this fun, they like, yeah, he come back down.
DJ Wells
Yeah, he did enough.
Host 1
Nah, it was he ready now. Let's go. It would have been different because I felt like I built it in Atlanta.
DJ Wells
I don't know the way Other people.
Mook
Would have looked at it if Derrick Rose would have.
Host 1
Look how big Rose would have won a championship in Chicago from there.
Mook
Look how big he is now.
Host 1
That's because he built that, though.
DJ Wells
He's from there and from there made all that go even.
Mook
Jesus Christ.
Host 1
Yeah, they picked him.
Tom Brokaw
Yeah.
Host 1
Yeah. Like, it should go crazy.
DJ Wells
That was Derrick Rose, though. I'm not saying you had to pick him.
Host 1
I'm not saying you should. But I'm saying if he won a trippy. If he brought a championship to his home city that picked him. Yeah, that's gonna go crazy. He'd be bigger than Jordan. Not really, but he'd be big as hell.
DJ Wells
He might have, bro.
Mook
How big he is now, he might have been. That would have been crazy, bro.
DJ Wells
Just cause he from New York.
Host 1
Yeah, it would have been crazy. But I'm saying the. Like, if George Hill, like, they. They went and got Georgia and he played a long time here. If he won a chip, it's like, that's fire. But me, he. I ain't play here.
Mook
Tyrese is the same type of person.
Host 1
So they.
Mook
Yeah, it would have been. It's just different, though. It's just different because I. I just see like, were you from your hometown and you in like a. A big championship like that in your city. It changes your life, bro. It really does.
DJ Wells
That's what we saying though.
Mook
If you do like your opportunities just for more. It's just the keys. Yeah, you got the keys to the.
Host 1
City, but that's any city you play in, though. If you. That if you. If you. If you there long enough. I'm being for real. If you there long enough, they embrace you like you theirs. So you gonna have the keys to the city. Like I'm telling y' all. Atlanta embrace me like they do. Like when I go around the.
Mook
Atlanta. Gordon Hayward won the championship in Indiana.
Host 1
It's cause he did his whole thing in Indiana. He did his whole life in Indiana. Like, I didn't. Indiana didn't fuck with me until I went to the NBA.
DJ Wells
Like they would have if you won.
Host 1
I'm not saying that, but I think that Purdue didn't offer me. I'm saying all that was different. He went.
Mook
You wanted you Sam.
Host 1
Sam Samson did all right. I'll give you something he did, but I'm just.
Mook
Relationship with Notre Dame. But they probably would have with you.
Host 1
No, they didn't. My gr. But what I'm saying is Gordon Hayward spent his whole life in Indiana. Like, if he came and play for the pace like Gordon Hayward get cheer harder than Paul George. He was here.
DJ Wells
I mean, now, if Gordon Hayward win, that hit a little different.
Host 1
Yeah, that's going to be crazy.
Mook
All right, what about Mike Conley?
Host 1
No, it would have been the same if he would have won, if he. If he won in Memphis, but it'll.
DJ Wells
Be way better here and all that.
Mook
You live here.
DJ Wells
They see you all the time.
Mook
Yes, bro. You were in and out of the city, though. Your birthday party's here. Like, you would have been different, bro.
Host 1
No, I mean, it would have been fun. But I'm saying, like, I. I'm just saying because I played in Atlanta longer, like, my one year, if we would have won a championship here, it would have been fun. I'm like, damn, we want a chip. But it would have been more if I won in Atlanta just because how much time I spent there.
Tom Brokaw
I could say that from a personal standpoint.
DJ Wells
From a personal standpoint, I get all the. But from the looking. Looking at it, if you were the one here, it would have been nuts, bro.
Host 1
It would have been fun. But Paul George would have been like, not pg. No, I'm saying. I'm saying PG was like, PG brung a chip to Indiana. In Atlanta, it would have been like, we lost everybody.
Tom Brokaw
A team that brought a chip to.
Host 1
The A. Yeah, it would have hit different. Well, here I'd have been like. I would have held the trophy next to tab.
Mook
The party would have been different.
Host 1
What?
Mook
But yeah, every day, though, in your city, bro, you got the keys to.
DJ Wells
This motherfucker rest of your life.
Mook
Yes.
Tom Brokaw
And bias aside, bro, if that year you would have got traded here, y' all wanted a chip, I would have said, yeah. My team brought a chip to the city, bro. We didn't get one.
Host 1
Get PG a statue.
Tom Brokaw
He didn't get one before my till. You got here, bro. Build a statue.
DJ Wells

But when I was 25 and you was. I'm gonna give him all he wanted. He wanted this attention. I'm gonna get to you. When I was 27 and you was in your prime at like 21, you became a coach. All right, there you go.
Tom Brokaw

Mook
Respect to all people, that's.
Host 1
Nope. Nope.
DJ Wells
But if you come talking shit, don't.
Host 1

Tom Brokaw
Hey, you don't.
Mook
My name.
Host 1
I know your name. We have. We try to get you a coaching job.
Mook
Yeah, you got to stand on.
Host 1
Yeah, we try to get you a coaching job.
Mook
You're right.
Host 1
I do know your. We try to get you at iu.
DJ Wells
You won't be saying people names. That's extra.
Host 1
And I was showing you love, bro. That's what it was up.
DJ Wells
He was talking to me, talking to me.
Mook
But yeah, that's what I'm saying, yo. That's your generation. Not even his. Like, our hero was.
DJ Wells
Definitely took it to some pro him.
Host 1
And I'mma take it to the real.
Mook
Yeah, but you was really, like, the only in the city with all that type of. Of attention nationally, it was people here with attention, but you had the most.
Host 1
Yeah. After Greg and Eric, it was moot.
Mook
Yeah.
Host 1
And that's a fact.
Tom Brokaw
Proves in the pudding respect, man. All right, man. Yo, what's good? 520 family. I decay if y' all talk about this. But what do y' all think about the bad conversation LeBron and Luca had? They talking about LeBron, he said, talking about, I got a bag and I got 50 billion points. I agree. It don't matter. They have the most buckets ever.
DJ Wells
Said, he don't got a bag. Bag, bro. He's like, I got 50 billion points. How I don't got a bag.
Host 1
He got. He's the best bag. He's the best. Like, I hate when people say he's not the best scorer. I'm like, what's the object of the game? To put the basketball.
DJ Wells
Yeah.
Host 1
However you do in the basket.
Mook
Yeah. Because if y' all gonna say Kareem had it, he did it with all hookies.
Host 1
But how you got the best score and nobody can stop you from scoring.
Tom Brokaw
Literally.
DJ Wells
They was talking to me about the Mike Beasley, I guess he got a bag, bro. As long as you can score, you got a bag, bro.
Mook
He really does.
DJ Wells
No matter how I look, I'm just. I'm just was going off how it looked.
Host 1
You know, some people got handles, but if you can score the ball, bro, you're the best scorer. If you have the most points and nobody can stop you.
Mook
Yeah.
Host 1
Are you not. How are you not the best scorer? They like, he don't score better than Kobe. I'm like, well, he shoots 60% from the field and he scores 28 points a game.
Mook
Yeah. He actually scores easier.
Tom Brokaw
Yeah.
DJ Wells
People just like certain people's styles, bro.
Host 1
That's a fact.
Mook
I think that. I think. Yeah, I think that's the real argument of it, though. But I. I get both sides of it, though, though. Somebody that can score, like KD can score in multiple ways, bro.
Host 1
But Brian can, too. But I'm saying, I. I agree when you say KD could be the best scorer because obviously KD got hurt and all that stuff. But KD rarely misses like he shoot 50%, you know what I mean? Like, I'm like, okay. But then when you go, look at Bron, he got the same efficiency you like, dang. And he doing that every year.
Mook
True. But the most part people get technical when it's is how it looks.
Host 1
You can get it, but do it go in. I know somebody when I was in high school had the prettiest jumper and it never went in, but it looked good in. Never went in.
DJ Wells
It's like the mellow and KD beef. Like, which, which style do you like better?
Mook
N. Right.
DJ Wells
They both score, but which one you like better look better to you.
Host 1
So if he score on 30 shots and KD score on efficiency, definitely matters.
Mook
And respect to Brian for sure. He is the go go. But I think that's why KD gets it for me. Because he do it in more ways and on less shots.
Host 1
He don't do on less shots though.
DJ Wells
And shoot layups a lot.
Mook
But KD does not shoot the ball like these.
Host 1
Can you go to Brian? He don't like field goal percentage. That's why I used to think Mike.
Mook
No, it's high.
Host 1
That's why I used to think Mike was crazy. Because it's like career field goal percentage is like 50%.
Mook
Yeah, but he, he got it up though. He got that.
Host 1
Yeah, but when you shoot 30 something and you make 15, I mean, it's like especially.
DJ Wells
50%.
Host 1
Yeah, like, but it's like, damn, you shot.
Tom Brokaw
Mike didn't pass before 89, bro.
Host 1
He did, but look at Brian. That is crazy, bro.
Tom Brokaw
That is crazy, bro. Shooting 50% as career.
Mook
Come on, bro, tell the KD's real quick. Brian is 50, 34 and 73.
Host 1
Yeah, shot. He shot 52% last year.
Mook
Yeah, I just wanted to see.
Host 1
That's crazy, bro.
Tom Brokaw
That's crazy, bro.
Host 1
He shot. He shoot a lot of jumpers, though.
Mook
Like, that's. That's my point. The versatility in that. Can you blow that up.
Host 1
For his career?
Tom Brokaw
5490. That's crazy. He's dead. 5490, bro.
Host 1
Hey, he is crazy, bro.
Mook
Bro, been averaging Damner 25 points since his second year in the NBA, bro.
Tom Brokaw
No, that's a fact. His rookie year, he's average 25 more.
Host 1
Mad crazy, bro. He just don't got. He just don't got enough points.
DJ Wells
If he wasn't hurt.
Host 1
Yeah, if he didn't get hurt. And he probably would be on his way to catching Brian.
Mook
But now they got Brian messed up, man. Nothing else for him.
Host 1
That is, that Is that is incredible. I mean that is crazy. Incredible.
Mook
Literally.
Host 1
Bro, can you go to Kobe's?
Mook
We had this talk on.
Host 1
That is crazy.
Mook
Like I think KD different, bro.
Host 1
Yeah, he is, bro. Bro, his career 44% and what's his three.
Mook
Can'T blow it up there. It should be.
Host 1
Yeah, yeah. So he not really that efficient compared to them 2.
DJ Wells
32. Damn.
Host 1
So got a lot of midis, bro, what I'm saying. But a lot of people will say Kobe Bryant was a way better score than Brian. And you like is he how. Yeah, that's what I'm trying to say.
DJ Wells
81.
Host 1
I mean he, he was a more aggressive scorer. I would say most definitely.
DJ Wells
I gotta think it's some people that love Kobe out here, bro. So they not hearing none of that.
Tom Brokaw
Oh, we know.
Mook
Oh ton of people.
Tom Brokaw
Oh, look at the points leaders, bro.
Host 1
I'm saying. But he's a more of. He's a more aggressive score, but efficient. Yeah.
DJ Wells
Kobe shoot over four people.
Host 1
Yeah, he was more aggressive LeBron.
DJ Wells
But he's shooting a game winner. No matter.
Host 1
But Kevin Durant's crazy.
Tom Brokaw
If KD wasn't hurt, he already be tough off.
Host 1
Yeah. If KD didn't get hurt. KD is crazy, bro. We got a. Hey, Kevin Durant, bro.
Mook
He damn near 18 years.
DJ Wells
No slander, bro. Nobody slanders him about basketball.
Host 1
Kevin Durant, bro. That just matter.
DJ Wells
He went to go choices he made.
Host 1
Hey, Kevin Durant don't get hurt, man. Everybody know what kind of that is crazy to me.
Mook
I swear to God says long time. He is the greatest offensive basketball player I ever seen, man.
Host 1
I, I, I can stand with you on that.
DJ Wells
And he's seven foot, bro.
Host 1
I am not mad at you on that.
Tom Brokaw
Can we go back to that list please too?
Host 1
The only thing that makes a difference like Brian might be able to score a little easier because Bron can bully you to the basket.
Mook
Yeah, yeah.
Host 1
That's the only difference.
Mook
Somebody just shooting jumpers though, at a.
Host 1
High clip and they're shooting like that.
DJ Wells
That is crazy jumpers, bro.
Host 1
Yeah. And that's. That's crazy. Nah.
Tom Brokaw
Elite that top 10 list is. It's crazy because you look at James Harden right there at 11.
DJ Wells
My boy pop.
Tom Brokaw
That's tough.
Host 1
Go look at. Let me anyway y' all can pull up mellow and see what his efficiency was. He's top 10.
Tom Brokaw
That's another person who would have been higher on the list. He had years that he didn't get to really, you know what I'm saying? He was supposed to do as well.
Host 1
But Kevin Durant Almost 50, 40, 90 for your career. That's crazy.
Mook
Kyrie had seasons like that when was praising him.
Tom Brokaw
Come on, man.
Host 1
Romello 30, 44 and 35.
Mook
That's right at where he should be.
Host 1
Yeah, that's about that sound.
Mook
That's about right.
Host 1
That sound like a melody, though.
Tom Brokaw
And that 22 and a half is misleading. Especially the. You take off those last three or four years, bro. It's totally different.
Mook
La.
Tom Brokaw
And he had a couple years in New York where he met basketball.
Host 1
That Houston. Houston St.
Mook
Remember that game, dj.
Tom Brokaw
I'll never forget. Bubble Boy came out like it was the last dance, bro.
Mook
DJ was part of a legendary moment.
Tom Brokaw

That's disrespectful. That's Joe Johnson, y' all. All right, let's get through these super chat questions. Robbie Robb said there's a small trend where players have gone to the spurs towards end their career to play under Pop, but Pops have been down. Does this trend continue with Wimby being the draw? If KD comes, does he retire a spur? If he comes to that team and they can be as good as we think they are, he probably will because they will be very dangerous until Katie decides to leave there for sure. Sure. Good question. All right. Christopher Smith says no. Jeff and Moog be arguing with everybody at the gyms, depending on what day it is.
Host 1
I don't argue.
DJ Wells
I do sometimes.

Okay? Have you heard about this? Last year, Degree changed the formula for their Cool Rush deodorant. The fans rebelled and wanted the old scent back. And degree listen, and that doesn't happen often. They admitted they effed up and are bringing the original Cool Rush scent back. And it's exactly how you remember it. Cool, crisp, and fresh. There's a reason why it's the number one man's antiperspirant. And it's back in Walmart, Target, and other stores now for under $4. So try it and see what the fuss is about. Head to your local Walmart, Target and try to OG Cool Rush for yourself.

Episode Title: Jeff Teague REACTS to Pacers beating SGA & OKC Thunder in Game 3, Haliburton + Pacers bench GOES OFF
Note: The episode begins with promotional segments and advertisements, which are omitted from this summary.
DJ Wells opens the discussion with a recap of Game 3, where the Indiana Pacers secured a decisive victory over the Oklahoma City Thunder, with a final score of 116-107. He emphasizes the team's strategic gameplay and energy, setting a positive tone for the analysis.
Tyrese Haliburton's Impact ([05:03] - [09:23])
DJ Wells names Tyrese Haliburton as the Player of the Game, highlighting his aggressive playstyle and vital contributions:
"When Tyrese Halliburton has a big assist night, we know that the Pacer's probably gonna win. [...] He was aggressive the whole game, and he made plays for others."
(05:03)
Mook supports this view, noting Haliburton's near triple-double performance:
"When he plays like this, this is the type of team that can win a championship."
(09:23)
Benedict Matheny's Bench Performance ([05:29] - [06:23])
DJ Wells commends the entire Pacers bench, especially Benedict Matheny who scored 27 points:
"Most points off the bench since Jason Terry in 2011 finals."
(05:52)
Mook remarks on the rarity and significance of such a performance:
"That’s a long time for somebody not to get buckets off the bench."
(06:23)
Pascal Siakam and TJ McConnell ([06:43] - [07:58])
Mook praises Pascal Siakam for his leadership and consistent performance:
"He the leader of the team, bro. Without him, it probably get wicked."
(07:04)
Tom Brokaw highlights TJ McConnell's defensive prowess:
"Shout out to Nemhardt, holding down the MVP to 24 points. It is not an easy task."
(07:58)
DJ Wells and Mook discuss the New York Knicks' ongoing search for a new head coach, mentioning potential candidates like Taylor Jenkins and expressing frustration over repeated considerations of Mike Brown:
"Come on, man. We fresh off game three... The Knicks coaching job is overshadowed in the NBA Finals."
(02:23)
"I'm sick of Mike Brown."
(02:50)
Mook voices skepticism about Brown's fit for the role:
"I ain't rolling with Mike Brown for the New York job. Nah, bro."
(02:55)
Tom Brokaw brings up Demarcus Cousins' suspension for the remainder of the season due to an altercation with a fan:
"Did you see how they described it for grabbing his gesture at a fan? That's the crazy suspension."
(03:57)
DJ Wells comments humorously on the severity:
"Rightfully, the rest of his life, bro."
(03:59)
Building a Team Around Prime Players
Super Chat Question: "Would you rather build a team around Prime Carmelo Anthony or Prime Paul George?"
Responses:
Mook and DJ Wells express a preference for Paul George due to his versatility and championship experience:
"I'm going go mellow, cuz he won more."
(45:47)
"TMAC was no slouch at all in the hall of Fame for a reason."
(46:10)
Host DJ Wells adds:
"Having a chance to play with him, I've seen his greatness."
(45:50)
DJ Wells and Mook share personal stories about their NBA experiences, including playing in Pro-Am leagues and interactions with former players. They express frustrations and nostalgia, adding a personal touch to the sports analysis.
"When I played real basketball, I ain't play pros... I hooped in Pro-Am's when I was retired."
(31:34)
"I love the energy here."
