I. Introduction and Opening Remarks

The episode kicks off at [02:04] with host D.J. Wells greeting his co-hosts T and Bishop, setting an energetic tone for the morning's sports discussions. The hosts dive straight into their analysis of the latest NBA playoff games, focusing particularly on the Indiana Pacers' impressive performance against the New York Knicks.

II. Pacers vs. Knicks Series Overview

A. Game Recap and Series Status The Pacers have established a commanding 3-1 lead in their playoff series against the Knicks. The hosts express their excitement and optimism about the Pacers' prospects moving forward.

B. Tyrese Haliburton’s Historic Performance A standout moment from the series was Tyrese Haliburton's remarkable game, where he achieved 32 points, 15 assists, and 12 rebounds without committing a turnover—a first in NBA playoff history.

D.J. Wells [02:52]: "Tyrese Halliburton with a historic playoff performance yesterday. My boy went crazy. 32, 15 and 12 with no turnovers. Only time that's ever happened in NBA history. Man. Shout out to Tyrese."

C. Knicks’ Key Players Despite the loss, Knicks players like Jalen Brunson and Julius Randle had noteworthy performances. Brunson scored 31 points with 5 rebounds, while Randle contributed 24 points and 12 rebounds.

D.J. Wells [03:18]: "But Jalen Brungs just hit the floater to win game three. That was after not playing five minutes. That's elite."

III. Team Strategies and Tactical Analysis

A. Pacers’ Aggressive Playstyle The Pacers have shifted to a more aggressive and physical playstyle during the playoffs, contrasting their regular-season "finesse" approach. This change has disrupted the Knicks' usual strategies, leading to increased turnovers and effective fast breaks.

D.J. Wells [07:06]: "The Pacers are a tough team to beat and that's what they did yesterday. The Knicks just had too many turnovers."

B. Knicks’ Turnover Issues The Knicks struggled with maintaining possession, committing 17 turnovers compared to their 17 assists, which significantly hindered their offensive flow against the Pacers' defense.

D.J. Wells [08:34]: "Tyrese had 15 turn assists and no turnovers."

IV. Audience Interaction and Super Chat Highlights

The hosts engage with listeners through Super Chat, addressing comments and questions about player rankings and performances. A notable interaction includes a listener questioning whether Haliburton deserves to be a top 10 point guard in the league if he wins a championship.

Host [14:45]: "This morning, bro."

D.J. Wells [14:52]: "#Club520 and bet just $5 to get 300 in bonus bets."

The discussion also touches on the debate surrounding whether certain players are overrated, with particular emphasis on Haliburton's impact and potential legacy.

V. In-depth Player Comparisons and Debates

A. Comparing Tyrese Halliburton and Julius Randle The conversation delves into a comparison between Haliburton and Randle, debating their effectiveness and roles within their respective teams.

Host [13:54]: "Julius Randle is a bully. He don't really got no type of handle, no wiggle, nothing. Pascal is like SGA for power forwards."

B. Future Prospects and MVP Discussions The hosts speculate on potential MVP candidates and the future trajectory of key players, emphasizing Haliburton's growing influence in the league.

Host [15:31]: "He top five, bro."

VI. WNBA and Other Sports Highlights

Transitioning from the NBA, the hosts briefly discuss WNBA performances, highlighting players like Angel Reese and Kelsey Plum. They analyze game outcomes and player statistics, bringing a comprehensive sports perspective to the conversation.

Bishop [34:56]: "Charles was so cold when we was in high school."

VII. Fan Culture and Personal Experiences

The hosts share personal anecdotes about attending games and their experiences as fans, shedding light on fan behaviors and the emotional investment in sports.

Host [19:58]: "Like, going to the game, it's weird. I never been to a game that mattered."

VIII. Final Thoughts and Conclusion

As the episode nears its end, the hosts reflect on the Pacers' upcoming challenges, the overall state of the playoffs, and the excitement surrounding potential championship outcomes. They emphasize the importance of team dynamics and player performances in securing victories.

D.J. Wells [62:22]: "If Tyrese get one hit the best Pacer of all time."

[D.J. Wells]

Yeah. You know what I'm saying? We know we nice people.

[Bishop]

Supposed to win game. Enjoy. Enjoy.

[D.J. Wells]

Hey, talk your.

[Host]

He.

[D.J. Wells]

He can beat up for a second, you know what I'm saying?

[Host]

This morning, bro.

[T]

We supposed to bring the brooms out, bro. We shouldn't even have to go to New York.

[D.J. Wells]

Yeah, man, we should be saving gas right now. We shouldn't be using these planes for no reason, man.

[T]

Resting up. Getting Tibs fired for getting sweat. God damn.

[D.J. Wells]

It's all good, man. We got the champagne popping the Mad Square Garden once again. You know the vibes for show, man. Siakam showed up Yesterday with a 30 ball, five rebounds. Benedict Mather. And game ball goes to my boy yesterday. Hooped out in 12 minutes. He had 20 points. Crucial, crucial points. We needed every single one of those. But the Knicks showed up as well. You know, Jelly Brunson had 31 and 5. He knew what he does best. Cat had 24 and 12. OG Anunoby had 22 and 4 as well, man, I know we talked last night about how y' all feeling about the game still, man. Crazy environment, man. Everybody was in the building. Good energy for the crowd, man. What a game.

[T]

It was a great game, bro. I feel like Tibbs tried to go back to that same style. He put Dahlon Wright in all them guys, but shit, that shit just ain't hit the same, bro. It was on they ass.

[D.J. Wells]

Yeah, you talked about that, T. You know what I'm saying? They went on the scout reports. To them, they contributions was like, whoa. Threw us off guard. Yeah, we was ready for Landry Tremont last night. Yeah, we was ready for Dahlon Wright. But even though he played some great.

[Host]

Defense yesterday, yeah, he had a. He had a missed layup that kind of not say it turned the game around.

[D.J. Wells]

He had a good steal though.

[Host]

He got a good steal. But that layup and it led to a three. Yeah, that was like a. Kind of like a heartbreaker. That's how I knew the game was gonna go when he missed that layup. That would have put him up one if he would've hit that layup. Instead, they ended up going down what, three?

[D.J. Wells]

And he had a nasty double in transition too. Possession back. Yeah, it was nasty. I appreciate the game on my mom.

[Host]

Cuz that kind of. Not to say Tyrese wasn't already going. He was kind of in his groove. But that three kind of lit the building back up. The miss lay up to the big three. The building kind of went up after that.

[Bishop]

But Ben Mah threw them off, bro. 12 minutes, bro. Giving him a dub, bro.

[T]

He's going to get at least one good game.

[Bishop]

I'm a fan of his game, bro. I speak how I knew he was.

[T]

Going to get at least one.

[Bishop]

I told you about 20 and 12, bro. That's. That's fire.

[T]

And respectfully, how many times he scored curling on the inbounds play, bro. Yeah, that's just ridiculous.

[D.J. Wells]

And he's one of the only players on our team who does that. Now sometimes, you know, he gets criticized for trying to get too much contact. Worried about getting the contact instead of finishing the layup sometimes. But Ben puts pressure on the rim and he hits free throws. He's one.

[T]

That's bad defense.

[Bishop]

I like that insert. I like that.

[T]

He scored like three or four times on the inbounds play.

[D.J. Wells]

I don't disagree with you.

[Host]

He's a hell of a cutter, though. He do a good job. Especially with TJ McConnell when he gets the ball. Cause TJ kind of. We call it the Nash rule. He just dribbles around a quarter lot. He just turns into Steve Nash and he cuts well off the ball when, you know, I guess you call him what TJ Nash. When TJ Nash started doing that, it seemed like he always get a backdoor layup or a good cut. And he did that last night, got an and one. But nah, he played great for them, man. Only in 12 minutes to get 20 points, man.

[Bishop]

That's a quarter, bro.

[T]

Yeah, I need a couple more minutes.

[Bishop]

That was the biggest dud, bro.

[D.J. Wells]

And look at his stats, bro. 5 for 8.

[T]

Give me 16 minutes, bro.

[D.J. Wells]

10 for 11. Like, man, listen, I know that you know the Rick Rock Nemhardt, honestly, listen, Nimhart did not give us what we needed yesterday. I would have preferred being closed out yesterday because he was more aggressive yesterday. I mean, no slight to Nimhard. He always show up, play solid defense. But 1 for 9, he wasn't even really aggressive yesterday. I would have liked to close the game out with Benedict Matthew yesterday. I think he earned that right.

[Bishop]

That's good that y' all got somebody that could fill in like that though, bro. Cause I don't know if Ben didn't get that 20.

[T]

Yeah, it would have been. We needed that 20.

[Bishop]

It would have been a game.

[D.J. Wells]

No, I mean every word I said is ball to him.

[Bishop]

Cuz he kept saving them hard ass for that.

[D.J. Wells]

Yeah, I mean even n he, you know, saying gave some contributions, but it was really early arrest was on defense. Even though he played phenomenal defense yesterday.

[Bishop]

He did.

[D.J. Wells]

I can't ask you to score 25 and play great defense on Jaylen Brunson. You did what you were supposed to do for sure. Before we go any further in super chat moment says it a coincidence that the last two inseason tournament losers meeting in the finals, Patience lost to the Lakers and the Thunder lost to the Bucks. Ah, I didn't think about that. Okay. You cooking your eyes wide open this morning, boy, I like that.

[Host]

Congrats. You know what the Pacers did? Well, they turned them over. They made the Knicks play a little faster and they was turning the ball over. I don't know, I think they might have 17, 18 turnovers, but that led to the Pacers getting out and running and when they get out and running in fast breaks and like you said, Tyrese Halliburton dribbling that ball all high and kicking it up to people and pulling threes in transition. Them guys are playing fast like that. Pacers are a tough team to beat and that's what they did yesterday. The Knicks just had too many turnovers. You cannot turn the ball over against a team who's not really known for defense. Pacers is not a defensive team, but they've been playing great defense in these playoffs. And it's like timely defensive possessions, right? They play well, they get steals and things like that. They're not known for being a physical team, but they're the most physical team in the playoffs right now. And it's kind of crazy. It's like they turn on this switch like throughout the regular Season we call them a finesse team and all this. And then when the playoffs come, they get super aggressive, super physical and they become a different team. And they kind of took away what the Knicks do well. And Knicks supposed to be a physical, grimy, New York type style team and they flipped it in Indiana. Really the grimy team.

[D.J. Wells]

You know, it's interesting you said that and I think one thing I like about Rick is when we went small at Garden Cat, granted it didn't really help too much, but the physicality, we got to leave more physical. Cause a small four guard dude. So yes, you can't. You know what I'm saying? They ain't gonna call those fouls. But, but interesting you say that. Yesterday The Knicks had 17 assists, 17 turnovers. Tyrese had 15 turn assists and no turnovers.

[Host]

Yeah, they was turning up you giving us transition points.

[D.J. Wells]

That's the only way we gonna score.

[T]

CAB was bullying Pascal, but Pascal was being physical, fighting with him. So he missed a couple little chippies that he should have made and it was wearing him down a little bit. Cause he was going back at him on the other end. So it kind of played. Played out good.

[D.J. Wells]

Most definitely. Let's look at the shooting from the Knicks. Okay. OG, you know what I'm saying? Shot decent, but 1 for 7 for 3 is nasty. Need more from that. Even though he hooped a cat. 8 for 15, did his thing for sure. Mikhail Bridges, even though it looked like he hit more than six shots. Maybe because all four of them was threes. Six for 15, that's tough. That's real tough.

[Bishop]

Four of them was bullshit shots at the end.

[T]

He shot a couple crazy threes.

[D.J. Wells]

Yeah, I was gonna say. So really it's probably, you know what I'm saying, 6 for 12. I've been showing him some love. Jalen Brunson, 9 for 19, but he shot a lot of free throws. Only missed one as usual. Josh Hart, man, a lot of people feel like Josh Hart let them down yesterday. He played hard as hell, but man, he was giving us some possessions, especially.

[Host]

With those fouls, turning it over. Yeah, turnovers, they, they was just putting him in a position that he's not really com. Like he's not good at. Like him running pick and rolls and stuff. That's just not his thing. He's a capable player. He's good off the drive and kick. He not a three point shooter. He a good offensive rebound. He a dirty work player, which is cool, but him having to be dynamic in your offense to be successful, probably a Recipe for disaster.

[D.J. Wells]

Especially on the fly. Something y' all ain't did all year. Y' all were just scrambling to see what was gonna shake. I don't think that was fair to put him in that position. For real. For real.

[Host]

I mean, y' all gotta get Jalen Brunson off the ball a little bit, but they just gotta find. That's the Knicks. That's on the Knicks next order. Like, they gotta find somebody who can make plays.

[T]

Maybe Tibbs just see what none of us seen. They, like, can't nobody else get the ball. That's why he hold it for 20 seconds.

[Host]

Yeah, I'm starting to lean towards that like nobody else can do.

[Bishop]

So my kid was running the one. I said, damn.

[D.J. Wells]

All right, y' all want me to get somebody's ball.

[Host]

All right, we need JB to hold the ball for 18 seconds and make a play.

[T]

I see why now.

[Host]

Me, too. I apologize. Cause I. Damn, they probably fucked y' all up. Cause y' all probably done heard me talking all this shit and then changed their game plan. And now they talk about team.

[D.J. Wells]

Quit listening to these N. See, I.

[Host]

Told you I was a real Pacer fan. The fix was in.

[D.J. Wells]

That's what I'm talking about. Set the play, my boy. Yeah, I know, man. Can we go back to the Pacer stats, though, again? We always talked about game three. As low as they shot from the three. Wasn't going to happen again. They showed up, especially our role players. Not even from a point standpoint, but just from a performance standpoint. A lot of energy, a lot of effort. Yesterday, Ben Shepard, 14 minutes. He didn't do the best, but he still fought and played defense, so I respect that. Guard J. Brunson. Yeah, man. Like you said, our two stars really showed up yesterday. And that's what you need.

[Host]

N. Y. If them two play like that, it's going to be a tough out. It's really. Now, if we looking forward, if we skip past these next couple of games and think that it's going to be Pacers Thunder, it's Pascal and Tyrese versus SGA and Jalen Williams. And it's like, what duo is gonna perform? Yeah, that's really what it is. It's gonna come down to. Everybody else is kinda like extras. Like, obviously, I think OKC got a couple better players in their roster. But, like, Benedict Matheran is an X factor, too, though. If he could play like he played last night, he counters some of the guys like Chet and stuff like that.

[D.J. Wells]

I mean, I know he got a short Leash with Rick. But man play because it's sometimes like he'll have some bad moments and he'll immediately come out the game like, bro, give him a chance.

[Bishop]

Because of them mistakes, though. Cause y' all need him.

[D.J. Wells]

We need him, bro.

[Bishop]

So shout out to Rick for, you know, I mean, letting him rock out for them 12.

[D.J. Wells]

But, I mean, he didn't really rock out. Was a reluctant 12. But I mean, we got the dub.

[T]

So I ain't gonna say that game he ain't score.

[Bishop]

But I'm saying, you know, Rick pulling it quick.

[Host]

He literally pulled. He did.

[D.J. Wells]

And he did, bro.

[Bishop]

Get a taste.

[T]

I was like, dang ass out yesterday he got them turnover.

[D.J. Wells]

He said, hey, now I'm gonna keep it up. I'm gonna keep it a b. I started calling him TJ McConnell yesterday. He came in at 4. 4 through two turnovers. I was like, hey, TJ, get the out the game.

[Bishop]

I'm like, y' all a good spark though, bro.

[D.J. Wells]

No, he does.

[T]

He does his job, but he needs to come.

[D.J. Wells]

The spark runs out. That's why it's a spark. It is not a flame.

[Host]

We got. Is he gonna outsport? Is he out? Is he out? Is he gonna outspark Caruso?

[D.J. Wells]

No. And that's what sucks. Because in most situations, I would take that, but no. Caruso switching on bigs. He forcing turnovers. And he can shoot.

[Bishop]

Gonna go crazy on these, bro.

[D.J. Wells]

Quit disrespecting Pascal. You see how he just bullied Cat last night? He pushing him off the block.

[T]

Fighting with Cat, bro.

[D.J. Wells]

Chevy don't hold no way down there with Pascal. He gonna push him all.

[Bishop]

Randall was gonna handle him. You see.

[D.J. Wells]

Well, Pascal's better than Randall.

[Bishop]

I mean, that's up to you, but.

[D.J. Wells]

No, that's up to the facts.

[Bishop]

That's up to you.

[D.J. Wells]

I'm taking Pascal Jul that's not smut to do his Randall. But Pascal be a range alone.

[T]

Pascal too. He a champion.

[Bishop]

I'm going go past y always do that. Championship respect.

[T]

It's part of your leg.

[Bishop]

I'm just saying. Y' all thought Julius Randle was going to hold ch and it's. He's green.

[D.J. Wells]

I agree.

[Host]

He doing his thing. Check playing well right now.

[Bishop]

Pascal going to have to play his ass off. You going to have to really guard, bro.

[T]

Check going have to play his ass.

[D.J. Wells]

That's what I think is what two way street.

[T]

You got to guard him too.

[D.J. Wells]

It's going to be about who foul less on offense in that situation. Cuz they both about bucket. But Pascal, that Midy boy and Pascal.

[T]

Not going to sit there and shoot threes. Julius Reynolds kind of letting him off the hook, bro.

[Host]

Julius Randle, Pascal gonna be at his ass. All right, let's just compare the two players while we here.

[D.J. Wells]

Okay.

[Host]

Julius Randle is a bully. He don't really got no type of handle, no wiggle, nothing. Pascal is like SGA for power forwards.

[D.J. Wells]

Like that comparison.

[Host]

Like, he got. He got move, spin. He kind of elusive with it, like, you know what I mean? He got some counters. He pump fake and he shoot the three. He kind of keep you off balance, but he's always attacking, attacking. The difference is Julius Randall's not like that. Julius Randall got no handles. He run into you, he can't run into you. He flip it up there or he just shoot a three. He count. Never mind. I ain't gonna disrespect him.

[T]

But giving bag work. Pascal got bag work.

[Host]

Yeah. He don't really like Pascal, man.

[Bishop]

I'm just telling y' all keep coming.

[Host]

Out, but I don't know. I don't know. I don't know who better, though. I'm not saying that Pascal better or Julius Randle is better.

[D.J. Wells]

Both two really good players.

[Bishop]

I'm going Pascal for sure.

[D.J. Wells]

But when you look at the eye.

[Host]

Test, it's like, it look easier for Pascal.

[T]

Yes.

[Host]

When I would look at it, like, easier.

[D.J. Wells]

So going with Pascal for sure. All right, let's dip into the super chat. Big Z11 said if Halbert wins a ring, there's going to be some uncomfortable conversations. Top 10 PG in the league if he wins.

[Host]

I ain't going to lie. He a top 10 PG now.

[T]

But if he win a ring first.

[Host]

Like, today, I'm gonna be. I'm being honest. I'm not gonna.

[Bishop]

He's top five.

[D.J. Wells]

Yeah. Like, yeah. What you leave a lot of people if you don't get a ring is crazy.

[Host]

I'm not gonna. I'm not gonna be a. I'm gonna be a real analyst today, even though I don't even say we a real analyst team. We just talk. We the Barbershop. But I'm gonna be for real today. I ain't gonna joke. I ain't gonna troll. He top five now.

[Bishop]

Yeah.

[Host]

I ain't gonna troll.

[D.J. Wells]

Dj. Yeah, bro. It's a lot of people who be getting a lot of love, bro. That don't have no playoff wins, bro. Back to back conference finals is tough.

[T]

And the way he doing it, they said he most overrated. And then he come do this.

[Bishop]

That's why I think this fix was in, man.

[Host]

Top five, bro.

[D.J. Wells]

They suspended my daddy, bro. They tried to do everything to hold me back. Bro.

[Bishop]

Is better than Jalen Bronson, bro.

[T]

Facts.

[Host]

He's a better. He's a better point guard.

[Bishop]

He's a better point.

[Host]

He's a better point guard. He's not a better player. Individual player. He a better point guard.

[T]

I rather have him run my team at that position.

[Host]

Yeah, he had better point guards, but it just player for player. Give me Jalen Brunson, but to run my team as a point guard. And that's the difference. We talking about a point guard? Yeah, for sure. Because like one on one at point guard on a one on one game. Kyrie Irving is the best one on one player. But for as a point guard, he's. He's not the best point guard. Yeah, he's more of a scoring. You're more of a two guard down there.

[D.J. Wells]

But I am going to say, boy.

[Bishop]

Jalen Brothers supposed to be 6, 7.

[Host]

Yeah, he played like Kyrie Irving too. Yeah, he played like Joe Johnson.

[D.J. Wells]

But it was so funny. I was asleep with some people who don't watch basketball that much. I was just like, does he bully everybody like that? But yeah, that's what he does. It don't matter who you are, bro.

[Bishop]

Yesterday it just looked.

[D.J. Wells]

He put his shoulder in Nemhardt chest so bad, bro. In a layup. It's just like if you even counter back, you gonna foul him, bro. You just have to deal with it. He's really that good.

[Bishop]

And I mean, the Knicks got better players, but Tyrese just involved his teammates more. It's more of a camaraderie.

[D.J. Wells]

He got them playing at a level that I don't think a lot people could have them playing that. And that's respect for facts.

[T]

Shoot throughout the game so they make timely shots cuz they in rhythm. They not in rhythm, bro. Like even Bridges at the end, he hadn't really shot too much, bro. He got the three, four shots off, but he hadn't shot much the whole game.

[D.J. Wells]

He start getting his off like.

[Host]

Like Nimhard. If it wasn't for Tyrese Halleberg, Nimhard probably wouldn't be.

[T]

Yeah, he wouldn't.

[Host]

He wouldn't be.

[T]

Not saying he not a good player.

[Host]

He a good player, but he wouldn't. He go. Yeah, he go to a different team like, cuz Tyrese got hurt and he got a chance to hoop ye or whatever it was. But I'm saying if he went to a different team with a star Player that is a point guard. He wouldn't play like if he was.

[T]

On the Knicks, bro.

[Host]

He would be Miles McBride. Yeah, he'll be McBride.

[D.J. Wells]

Yeah.

[Host]

Because essentially that's who he is like. But he had more freedom like Miles McBride. Don't got the same freedom as him like Nemhard out there doing step back threes.

[D.J. Wells]

Yeah.

[Host]

And he played 30 Rick Carlisle, bro.

[T]

He get them boys confidence.

[D.J. Wells]

Hey, Rick has listened. I give a lot of Rick slander. But what he's done this playoffs, I gotta show number respect. He's adjusted every step of way, every time, bro. Gotta show respect to that for sure. All right, man. Khalid Soyuz and Super Chat said Brunson should have been voted most overrated player and Holly should have got clutch player of the year. Change my mind. Talk your.

[Host]

[Bishop]

Just overrated was kind of crazy because he's been killing.

[Host]

He been super clutch. So I ain't gonna say that. He got the most fourth quarter points. So I don't even. Yeah, I ain't gonna do that one.

[D.J. Wells]

I'm here for the. Hey, but Jelly Bronson just hit the floater to win game three. That was after not playing five minutes. That's elite. If that ain't clips, I don't know what it is. What the helly burner says this year's patience smoking JT's Hawks. That's a fact. Oh, yo B, you got like parlay. I could put my house on tonight. Damn.

[Host]

Can I say one thing?

[D.J. Wells]

Yes, sir.

[Host]

Like, going to the game, it's weird. Like, I never been to a game. I've been to games that didn't matter. Like, we went to the Hawks game. It was like a random Monday or something and nobody was paying attention.

[D.J. Wells]

To the Miami Heat.

[Host]

Yeah, nobody was paying attention. And then like, all the other times I've been to games is like, biased. I went to like, Marcus game. We played in Kentucky. I'm there to see Marcus. We went to a playoff game. He was in Chicago. We was there to see Marcus. Like, I didn't care. I was biased. Like, I'm coming to see my brother. This the first time I went to a game that mattered and I had no reason to be there.

[T]

Nah, the first time I ever seen a crowd for a game was weird as hell. Yeah, you're just not used to that shit. Yeah, you're on the bench and shit. Or not used to sitting.

[Host]

So like, to see people, like, actually fans. And like, I make fun of DJ all the time because he an actual fan. Cause I've never been a fan of nothing but wrestling. But wrestling is different. You know what I mean? It's like you a fan of everything about wrestling to be a fan of a team. That shit is weird as hell to me. Nah, so like, to watch people, like, I was just people watching. I'm like, damn, he really, like, pissed that the ref just like, you really care this much about these dudes, bro. Like, I just got new respect for people who like, are true die hard fans or something.

[T]

They feel the same way you feel when you on the court. Yeah, they feel like that in the crowd.

[Host]

Yeah. Like they pay their hard earned money and it's like, damn, y' all really give a fuck. So that's why I'm gonna stop troll people. Cuz like, y' all really. I see, I be thinking, like, why? Why y' all really mad. Like, y' all really give a college.

[T]

They be.

[Bishop]

But that's how me and DJ went to that Mustangs game last year.

[T]

Love that college team.

[Bishop]

I'm a mama, bro. It was that field, bro, for a regular season game. And see Kayn Clark, bro.

[D.J. Wells]

Hey, man, listen how sick I am on a Monday morning after a Cowboys loss shouldn't make sense, bro.

[Host]

That's what I'm saying.

[D.J. Wells]

Like, people up my week if we lose. And we be losing a lot. So I'll be having some bad weeks.

[Host]

Like, to think people care that much. It's amazing because I never grew. But that, like, watching it looked like generational cares. Like, this shit was passed down from my grandpa. Like, I'm like, we didn't grow up like that. So I have. I'm not a fan of nothing. Yeah. So I've never been a fan of nothing. So to see people, like, be fans of shit, it's kind of impressive. It's amazing.

[Bishop]

I can't get behind a bunch of niggas that I don't know. Paul.

[Host]

My mind kind of like that, too.

[Bishop]

I'mma be real with y' all. Like, I love sports to death, but to just go crazy and up my household. Like, I feel like people go home and be like, tell that girl don't talk to me. They do.

[Host]

They do.

[Bishop]

Cowboys just lost.

[D.J. Wells]

[Bishop]

Dj, I'm going to the man. I'm going to the man cave.

[D.J. Wells]

But I'll Christmas Day when we lose to Patrick Mahomes, everybody go home. Christmas is over. If we lose at three o' clock, I don't want to see nobody ask six, bro.

[Host]

[D.J. Wells]

So we all made mistakes, right? But owning up to them, it's the right thing to do. But we all know degree cool rush deodorant well last year they changed the formula and it did not go over well with the fans. The grease, whole thing. It turns up sweat and other protection when you turn up the effort. And good thing it does because Cool Rush fans really turned up the effort to bring back the OG formula. One guy even started on petition and degree Listen. They admitted they effed up and are bringing back that OG Cool Rush scent back. And it's exactly how you remember it. Cool, crisp and fresh. It's back at Walmart, Target and other stores for under $4. There's a reason why it's been the number one men's antiperspirant for the last decade.

Well, this is the counseling that can save you some bread.

[Bishop]

This is not real counseling session.

[Host]

She don't really love you if she don't sign that prenup.

[Bishop]

Not leave your girl, cuz Mo said something.

[T]

Do not let her ruin your life, bro.

She don't really love you if she don't sign that prenup slide. Don't fall for the lie to say you already praying on our downfall if you got to have a prenup. Yes, I am. I am. The downfall is near.

[T]

Pacers and five.

[D.J. Wells]

You know the vibes. Historic moment. Send her home. All right. Brendan Henderson said, who let Uncle Ruckus coach soccer? Disrespectful.

[Bishop]

Timberwolves gonna win this one, y' all, man.

[T]

It's over. You gota stop.

[Host]

[Bishop]

I believe in you, bro. Another 20 point night from you tonight, man.

[T]

That's fine, bro. They're losing, bro.

[Host]

Yeah, so I don't even want to watch it.

[Bishop]

Damn. Is that bad?

[T]

I know they going to lose.

[Host]

I retired my best.

[D.J. Wells]

I ain't got a chance tonight.

[Bishop]

Don't listen to them, man.

[T]

They have G. They gave up, bro. Anthony Edwards was like this, bro. I'm ready. Go back to Atlanta.

[Host]

Bro.

[T]

He shot 12 shots, bro.

[Host]

[Bishop]

He's making the right place.

[Host]

Him and baby girl. We're going vacation. Rough year.

[Bishop]

Yeah.

[Host]

I didn't like what Kendrick Perkins said, though.

[T]

Trying to get his mental right.

[D.J. Wells]

Yeah, we're gonna talk about that later in the show. I ain't. I ain't like that either.

[Host]

Yeah, I didn't like that.

[D.J. Wells]

You got some. Some talk for Kendrick, man, Like, he.

[T]

Wasn'T a player, bro.

[Host]

Yeah, I don't like that.

[D.J. Wells]

But, man, no expectations for the Timberwolves in this panel tonight, so be here. I don't know what you're feeling, man, but it's looking like it's gonna be.

[Bishop]

Y' all just watch. It's cool, too.

[D.J. Wells]

I don't think too many people got too much hope in this, man.

[T]

Bro, you're not going to seven. And I beat OKC two games in a row, bro. It's not going seven.

[Bishop]

Then they gonna. You know. Okay, so gonna get them out of there.

[Host]

I'm cool off of that.

[Bishop]

One of these series is going seven, y' all.

[D.J. Wells]

Neither finals will, because everything.

[Host]

They all going five, man. All right, listen. I mean, I think the Knicks might win, and there's no disrespect to the Garden, but they might win at the guard. That's it. But them winning okc? Nah, it's not happening.

[D.J. Wells]

A would come out and have to be Super Saiyan tonight, which is clearly possible, but I think it might need a combination of him and Junior, and we have not seen that in the last couple games, unfortunately.

[Bishop]

All right, y' all, we'll see.

[Host]

But the Knicks do got a chance to win in the Garden because they at home. That's the only thing. But I don't think they gonna win the series at all.

[D.J. Wells]

Oh, no. It's over with Pace in five. We already set the tone. We trying to be eco friendly. We're gonna save some gas.

[Host]

I'm gonna say Pace is in six, though.

[T]

Swept they ass.

[D.J. Wells]

That's how I feel. We really should have put the broom out. We really was being too nice.

[T]

We shouldn't be playing no more right now.

[D.J. Wells]

Yeah, we should be chilling. You know what I'm saying? Nice little rest between the finals, but it's cool.

[Host]

It really should be 2. 2 right now, though.

[T]

Nah, it should be 4.

[Bishop]

0. Yeah, it should be 4. It should not.

[Host]

The Knicks should have won game.

[T]

Okay, I give him the first game. After that, though.

[Bishop]

Almost don't count. I get that.

[Host]

But the Knicks won game three.

[D.J. Wells]

Yeah, it should be.

[Host]

It should legit be two. Two.

[Bishop]

Supposed to go seven, bro, but respect.

[D.J. Wells]

But you know what happened? They lost.

[Bishop]

Yeah, that's what I said.

[Host]

No, the Pacers did what they were supposed to do. I mean, Pacers, they hooping.

[Bishop]

Tyrese did his big one for sure.

[D.J. Wells]

Damn. S is bad, man. Your Western Conference let us down, man. We supposed to be excited about other games. We gotta sit through these JV games.

[Host]

To get to the finals. Yeah, the West. The west was a dope. Disappointed.

[D.J. Wells]

What a letdown.

[T]

Not watching it tonight.

[Host]

You know what it was, man?

[Bishop]

I can't believe y' all, bro.

[Host]

It started with the Lakers. The Lakers let the whole west down.

[T]

Facts. We had high expectations for them.

[Bishop]

Y' all did.

[T]

And they let us down.

[Bishop]

Told y' all what my boy's gonna do. I don't give a fuck. My team. I got three teams in the finals. So I don't know what y' all talking about.

[Host]

And this is my point I made about. This was the point I was making about, like, people being actual fans of teams earlier. Because I hang around this all day. So me and him, we are one in the same. We don't give a fuck about none of the teams. We just like.

[Bishop]

No, I just. I just like basketball. I'm more of a high school fan swartzhu guy, like, than the NBA.

[Host]

Yeah. So to see DJ actually care about the pace. Because I. I thought this was, like, funny. Like, I didn't think he really care about the pace. But then I thought about it.

[Bishop]

Nah, I know, bro. He really is a fan.

[Host]

I'm like, this nigga really a fan. Cause they was. He been ever since he's been doing this time.

[Bishop]

DJ really turns up on us when we disrespect. Respect the patience, bro.

[Host]

I like. But we've been doing this for what, two and a half years? Hold it down. And he talk about the Pacers for the whole two and a half years. And then this. Remember when I was on the Pacers?

[Bishop]

No, but I'm saying. You remember last year when they beat the Bugs? DJ was.

[T]

Yeah, Cowboys, Pacers.

[Bishop]

That's what Give him something the hard heard.

[D.J. Wells]

Well, listen, Cowboys, we not gonna win. You know, they trying to take our check now. We back.

[Bishop]

Nah, you down. I'm talking about two years ago, Louisville. My boy was sick.

[Host]

Oh, boy.

[D.J. Wells]

Hey, hey. I don't talk about black men on this platform like that. But Kenny Payne, you would never get a Christmas gift from me, bro. Nah, that's a. Y' all see him to up our program, bro. Yes. We won two games in two years with Kenny, bro.

[Bishop]

So what?

[D.J. Wells]

Stay away, bro.

[T]

[D.J. Wells]

Shout out to pal. Kiss.

[Host]

See, that's my whole point. Look how they did Kenny Payne. That little. He went there.

[D.J. Wells]

No, look how he did us. That nigga won 10 games in two years. Are you serious?

[Bishop]

He's anywhere.

[D.J. Wells]

We were sad. We were terrible.

[Bishop]

Sort of God.

[D.J. Wells]

That's why we spent all the nil money.

[Host]

Now.

[Bishop]

Rick Patino would never.

[Host]

Bro. What?

[D.J. Wells]

He put banners up.

[T]

Shout out to kp.

[D.J. Wells]

No feet wet, bro.

[Bishop]

I'm just saying.

[Host]

So how you go to Louisville when they telling you don't ever come back to Louisville? That is crazy.

[Bishop]

Don't come in the gym, cuz.

[Host]

All right? Don't ever come back.

[D.J. Wells]

No, bro. What you did to us in two.

[Host]

Years, he come back, they going to boo him.

[T]

That's crazy, bro.

[Host]

He gonna come back. Where they at? Arkansas gonna play Louisville. They gonna. They like Kenny Payne's back. Boom.

[D.J. Wells]

They gonna treat him behind.

[Host]

And I was a trash. I was a star for y' all back in the day. See what I'm saying?

[D.J. Wells]

Hey, we didn't need to search who he is. We know who Kitty Payne is, man.

[T]

He's a workout guru, bro. He should have just kept working out.

[Host]

What do you think?

[Bishop]

For everybody, though.

[D.J. Wells]

Oh, man, he's a workout guru rule, though.

[T]

His workouts is crazy, bro.

[Bishop]

I'm sure that's a tough job to.

[D.J. Wells]

Take his head coach. A record is disgusting.

[Bishop]

That's a tough job.

[D.J. Wells]

No, that's him. That's his, like, actual playing career. Go to his coaching starfield.

[Host]

Average 8.

[D.J. Wells]

So they put.

[Host]

It's cool.

[D.J. Wells]

Pat Kelsey got the program back rocking. You know what I'm saying? We got m. We got some great transfers. We going to have a great year next year. Year. Louisville goes to the final four for sure. So we all made mistakes, right? But owning up to them, it's the right thing to do. But we all know degree Cool Rush deodorant. Well, last year they changed the formula, and it did not go over well with the fans, the grease, whole thing. It turns up sweat and other protection when you turn up the effort. And good thing it does, because Cool Rush fans really turned up the effort to bring back the OG formula. One guy even started online petition. And degree Listen, they admitted they effed up and are bringing back that OG Cool Rush scent back. And it's exactly how you remember it. Cool, crisp and fresh. It's back at Walmart, Target and other stores for under $4. There's a reason why it's been the number one men's anti perspirant for the last decade. It's the same reason why people are not happy when the recipe was changed. So listen, if you've never tried, it might be a good time to try. See what the fuss is about.

[Host]

Head to your local Walmart or Target and try the OG degree Cool Rush for yourself.

[Jim]

Oikos presents 15 seconds of strength. Here we go. Steve's got a trunk full of groceries and no one to help him.

[D.J. Wells]

Oh, that's tough, Jim. Looks like a five trip load at least.

[Jim]

He grabs the first bag the second Bob. It looks like he's trying to do.

[D.J. Wells]

It all in one trip.

[Jim]

He shimmies the door open, steps over the dog. Oh, and he stumbles.

[D.J. Wells]

Oh, right into the kitchen without missing a beat.

[Bishop]

So disrespectful.

[D.J. Wells]

What?

[Bishop]

Respect. Yeah, I'm a team player. We can move on, man.

[D.J. Wells]

Shout out to the JV game going on tonight, man. Okay, so you're ready for the finals. All right. MLB yesterday, we're running through some scores for show. The Dodgers secure the guardians yesterday 9 to 5.

[Host]

That's a cheating ass team, the Dodgers.

[D.J. Wells]

Yeah, bro. Bro.

[T]

Get on doctor's ass though.

[D.J. Wells]

Yeah, but that's what happens when. You know what I'm saying, You can pay whoever you want to. Yeah, yeah.

[T]

They gave Otani the world.

[Host]

Have we ever seen anything like him?

[D.J. Wells]

No, no.

[T]

He's a creative player.

[Host]

Yeah. No, bro, who would you compare Ohtani to if we was playing football and basketball? Who would you p. Who would you say Ohtani is?

[D.J. Wells]

It's really honestly kind of hard to even compare them. I mean. Yeah, to that statue. But it's like, bro, you can't pitch and you can hit home runs, bro. You can do everything perfect in baseball.

[T]

They made him out lad. Bro, he not a good person.

[D.J. Wells]

Yeah, that's different.

[Host]

I don't think we ever seen an athlete like him.

[D.J. Wells]

No, no, bro, that can pitch and hit like that, bro.

[T]

Jackson, nobody.

[Host]

Nah, I don't think we. I mean, Bo Jackson was. I'm talking about in their sport. I shouldn't say. Obviously it's better athletes. Bo Jackson can play them to every sport.

[D.J. Wells]

Yeah. Physically for sure.

[Host]

Yeah. But just to say to be that good in your Sport, like it's LeBron. But that's like LeBron being able to shoot like Steph Curry.

[T]

Facts.

[D.J. Wells]

That'll be crazy.

[T]

Cause he is like that.

[D.J. Wells]

He can pitch and he can dominate both important parts of the game. He can hit a home run and.

[Host]

He can stop you from hitting.

[D.J. Wells]

That's like being able to be the offensive player of the year and the defensive player of the year.

[T]

I can control this whole game.

[Host]

Yeah.

[D.J. Wells]

Single handedly.

[T]

Like single handedly.

[Host]

That's coming off an injury that's damn near Michael Jordan.

[Bishop]

Yeah.

[Host]

Even though his stats was inflated. When we. They talk about his defensive stats, but he was defensive player of the year, mvp. All that in the same year. So only Mike. Yeah, bro.

[D.J. Wells]

He's on his way, bro.

[Bishop]

I don't know, bro. When you do. When you do some by yourself, pitch and hit that. I'm better than Mike in my sport.

[T]

Oh, I'm crazy.

[Bishop]

I'm crazy, bro.

[T]

He ain't got no chips like Mike.

[D.J. Wells]

He gotta get. He gotta get the.

[Bishop]

They play 300 games, bro.

[D.J. Wells]

Hey, bro, it's a lot of goats.

[Host]

He got a tip under his belt though.

[Bishop]

I'll pitch it for sure.

[T]

Got what Mike got.

[Bishop]

Yeah, Mike. I mean, moo. Talking about multiple, but I'm saying, bro, he's throwing the ball, bro. And I gotta go hit this hoe, too.

[Host]

But it take a lot to be a good pitcher. Your defense, your. Your infield gotta be.

[Bishop]

Yeah.

[Host]

And your outfield, they gotta be supreme.

[D.J. Wells]

Yeah, but it starts with you. Like, you gotta have your squad. But it starts with you, bro.

[Host]

Yeah, it do. I mean, it do.

[D.J. Wells]

It starts with you.

[Host]

Yeah, it do.

[D.J. Wells]

You throwing 100 consistently across the plate. You getting that now, of course. Bare minimum, they gonna do their job, but, yeah, if you getting people out like that, you getting caves like that. And you getting. You getting home runs, bro.

[Host]

Nah, you. You definitely different. But either one, shout out to them, man.

[D.J. Wells]

It was big payroll. Dodgers is not a cheap team at all.

[Host]

N. Hell, no.

[D.J. Wells]

Cardinals took care of the Orioles yesterday, 7 to 4. The Tigers defeated the Giants 3 to 1. Phillies beat the Braves, 2 0. The Twins took care of the Braves, man.

[Host]

My Braves, Braves, man.

[D.J. Wells]

Give us something, man. 4 2.

[T]

Trying to roll with them. I. I hate the Braves, man.

[Host]

I. I lived in Atlanta, man. It rolling with the Brave.

[D.J. Wells]

Hey, the Braves got one of the best houses pass of all time.

[Host]

Oh, God, yeah.

[T]

Worst teams in MLB and top bet on them. They win every time I bet.

[D.J. Wells]

Yeah. Domestic care. The White Sox yesterday, 6 to 4. If you want to bet, don't put any money on the White Sox, because.

[T]

You would have bet against them. They would have won.

[D.J. Wells]

Yeah, they're not good people right now, in my book. The brewers took care of the Red Sox 5 to 1. Red took care of the Royal 7 to 2.

[Host]

We should be Reds fans, right? Cincinnati the closest thing to us, probably.

[D.J. Wells]

I mean, it depends if you're in the city and grew up.

[T]

Indians back?

[Bishop]

Yeah, I'm a Houston.

[T]

They need two now, ain't they?

[D.J. Wells]

No, they need three, but they. They just feed her to the Pirate system. Unfortunately, I'm a Diamondbacks fan. We'll talk about them up later in the show.

[Host]

How did you become a Diamondback fan, man?

[D.J. Wells]

Randy Johnson and them, bro.

[Host]

Yeah.

[D.J. Wells]

Big unit.

[Host]

The big unit, wasn't he? Yeah.

[D.J. Wells]

Rain Johnson want to call us a pitch, bro?

[T]

He was nasty.

[D.J. Wells]

Kurt Shilling, even though he knew a little bit different. They had a squad for sure. All right. Cubs Defeat the Rockies 4 to 3 to raid to secure the Blue Jays, 2 0. Astros beat the sleeves off the athletes, man.

[Bishop]

My dog Craig, BGO from back in the day. 06 legend right there. One of the craziest jerseys, too, by the way.

[D.J. Wells]

Not fire them.

[Bishop]

They're in the top five baseball jerseys.

[D.J. Wells]

Black with the burnt orange.

[Bishop]

Yes, sir.

[Host]

I want A Greg Max athletics jersey.

[D.J. Wells]

Come on. I got the old school Ryan jersey. The Astros with the stripes with the white top. Yeah, I'm used to bust elite, though backs.

[Host]

I do need new athletics hat, though.

[D.J. Wells]

All right, tap in. Hey, Liz. Y' all see the vibes? We need that. Yeah. Feet the Angels 3 to 2. The Padres defeat the Marlins 8 to 6. The Diamondbacks completely smoked yesterday against the Pirates. Pissed my whole day off.

[T]

That was crazy, bro.

[D.J. Wells]

Yeah, that.

[T]

I had a plus two on them. They was up four to two and gave up seven, bro. Seven runs.

[Bishop]

Oh, damn. That definitely your bankroll up.

[D.J. Wells]

Yeah, give us some to the Diamondbacks, you know what I'm saying? Up people. Money last to certain. At least the Manders beat the sleeves off the Nationals nine to one. All right, man. Yesterday solidify a lot of things for the Pacers. First, let's talk about the finals, man. You know what I'm saying? Two small market teams. Do y' all think that good basketball will save people watching or they ain't gonna care because of the markets anyway?

[T]

I think if it's good basketball, people gonna watch, bro.

[Host]

It's hard for me to say because we are basketball fans. So we in our own small little bubble, right? Yeah, because we basketball heads, so we're going to watch it regardless. But I'm trying to think of the.

[T]

Masses like, Tyrese hot right now, bro. SJ hot right now. I think people want to see them play. It ain't like it's some bum ass players out there.

[Bishop]

Facts.

[T]

The cities ain't idea. It ain't New York vs LA.

[D.J. Wells]

Players.

[T]

On the court, bro. Yeah, I think people want to see that.

[D.J. Wells]

Like you said, you got the league mvp, you know what I'm saying? Shay Guilder's Alex. It's not like they were some upset Cinderella team all year. No, they're the number one seed for a reason.

[T]

Albertan and songs and he hot as hell right now, bro.

[D.J. Wells]

Wwe, you got Triple H, you know what I'm saying? Pulling up.

[Host]

That was dope. I think I'm just trying to think about the masses. Do they want to see that?

[Bishop]

I think they do, bro.

[Host]

I mean, I want to see it. As a basketball fan, I think it's a great series.

[T]

It's going to be a hell of a series.

[Bishop]

I don't think nobody's having and find those parties.

[Host]

But that's what I'm saying. Like it's the masses.

[Bishop]

Like, I don't think Kiroy is going to be fat.

[Host]

It would be fat here.

[D.J. Wells]

Well, here, yeah.

[Bishop]

We Just talking about if I'm in.

[D.J. Wells]

New York, am I going to the bar to watch the final game? Probably not.

[Host]

That's what I'm saying. Like, are they watching in Atlanta?

[T]

All that, but they going to watch it at home?

[Host]

Are they watching in Atlanta?

[T]

No, no, N. Yeah.

[D.J. Wells]

I feel that they turn these videos back on.

[T]

It's not about to be a turn.

[Bishop]

Up, but I think people will watch it, though. It's gonna be crazy.

[Host]

I think it's just gonna be. I think it's gonna be like background music or tv.

[Bishop]

You just go to a regular bar on a regular.

[Host]

Yeah, but all the game is on.

[T]

That's actually nuts for the final lounge to be the background.

[D.J. Wells]

You got country music over the game, bro. It's crazy.

[Host]

I swear, I could feel.

[T]

I can see that Lakers and the Knicks was playing.

[Host]

Oh, this should be easy.

[D.J. Wells]

People be getting off work early, but I think it's gonna be good enough basketball. Like you said, when people actually tune in, they'll stay. I don't know if they'll jump immediately to it, but I think it's gonna be a good enough bump for people. Like, they hooping.

[Host]

Yeah. I can see if we in a different city. I could see people like. Cause it ain't LeBron and Stephen. Like, when LeBron step. Everybody sat down.

[T]

Yeah, I get that.

[Host]

I could see it being background, like, oh, the game is.

[T]

It actually will be.

[Host]

Yeah. Like the game is on.

[D.J. Wells]

Because even last year, I mean, outside of Boston fans who probably, you know, say a pretty big fan base, you weren't too excited to watch that finals last year. You kind of knew it was like, oh, yeah, they gonna get a business.

[Host]

I didn't really watch it like that last year. It was background music for me. That's why I was saying that. Like, damn. I really wasn't invested. I pretty much knew Boston was gonna win. Yeah, it wasn't really.

[D.J. Wells]

And they had Luca and Kyrie. That's crazy.

[Host]

Yeah.

[D.J. Wells]

So if you can't get those going, I mean, ain't nobody got a chance. But I think it's gonna be good enough basketball to people to tap in anyway. Hashtag sun, assess if. Okay, win it all. SJ get finals mvp. How do you rake him, kd Rust. Okay, say history. He's number one.

[T]

He won, then Russ, then kd.

[D.J. Wells]

Yeah, he's already matched their finals appearance, and he got an mvp, so he's already up in the category high anyway. He get one?

[Bishop]

Of course.

[D.J. Wells]

He's number one.

[Bishop]

[D.J. Wells]

If Tyrese get one hit the best Pacer of all time.

Therapy I think a lot of people think that you're supposed to be going to therapy once you're like having panic attacks every day. But before you get to that point, I think once you start even noticing that you feel a little bit off and you can't maintain this harmony that you want had in relationships, that could be a sign that maybe you want to go talk to somebody. There's always a benefit in talking to someone because we can all benefit from improved insight about ourselves and who we are and how we behave with other people. So if you're human, that's like a good indicator that you could benefit from talking to somebody.
