Grown Up Stuff Podcast and just in time for tax season. On this week's episode, we're chatting with CPA Lisa Green Lewis about how small businesses can tackle their taxes using TurboTax Business.
Matt
A Forbes study mentioned that a whopping 93% of small businesses overpay their taxes and 17% of Gen Zers believed that you could write off any expense as a business expense. So can't blame. It's really important to do your taxes right.

Good morning. Happy Thursday. It's 5:20 in the morning. Your favorite sports show. I'm your host. My name is DJ Will, joined this wonderful morning by my two brothers to my left, Bishop Hendrix to my right, my brother T, fellas, how y'all doing this morning?
DJ Will
What's happening, bro?
Matt
Okay. Teague turned up, man. Hey, man, we write me down. We start with the. With the boosie talk. Who had the best verse on Wipe Me down, Webby, Okay?
DJ Will
No, bro. Hell no. That's crazy. Respect to the song, man.
Matt
Classic for sure. Boosie, we need you on the pod. Hey, man, Shout out to playback. We was up working last night, man, watching this great game by the Thunder in the Celtics yesterday. Thunder got the Dub yesterday, 118 to 112. SGA went crazy yesterday, 34 and 7. Chat hooped out 23 and 15.
Leah
My bad.
Matt
Yeah, the chat was on T gas last night. Talk about Chad. We'll talk about some more, though. JT showed up with 33 and 8. Derrick White hooped out with 22 and 8, and JB went for 5 for 15 yesterday with only 10 points, and he fouled out the game, unfortunately. Yeah, we could talk about that after that. Hilarious. But, hey, that was a crazy game yesterday, man. Thunder getting that win without J Dub. I know the P sat out, but that's an impressive win. How y'all feel about it?
DJ Will
No, it was. It was a good game, bro. And to what Jeff was saying, I mean, he just. Bro, just wasn't explaining it for real. And our camera and was going in and out. Chad just ain't. He got to get stronger. Yeah, you got to get stronger to compete down in the pain. But he was. He's a killer, bro. He's a killer.
Matt
Man, watching SGA take over in that third quarter yesterday was crazy. Yeah, he looked like he was the best player on the court.
DJ Will
Nah. And I didn't even know they swept him this year. That's. That's crazy.
Matt
Yeah, the last game they played, they shut him down the second half and yesterday was a very, very close game. Obviously, Celtics ain't gonna have Jalen Brown shooting five or 15 again, but shout out to the Thunder. Them rotations in the second half really showed up for sure.
Leah
Man, Celtics shoot way too many threes. They so capable of getting to the basket. Like we said it countless times on the pod, I mean, watching the game last night, Jrue Holiday's at the rim, wide open layups, kicking them out for threes. And I get it, you know, touch the paint, kick it out and get threes. But he had layups, and they would turn down layups for threes, and they ain't shoot well. But they shot 60 something threes last night.
Matt
Yeah, and they only hit about 20, 64 probably.
Leah
Which is insane. And I'm not even gonna say insane. That's what they do.
Matt
Yeah. 20 for 63.
Leah
They had so many opportunities to get to the layups. And Jason Tatum had a mismatch every time. 6, 10, 2, 30. He can get to the paint whenever he wanted, but, you know, they settled for a bunch of threes. And that's what's. That could be the Achilles heels right there. If they're not shooting the ball well, I mean, they can guard. They got all that. But SGA and them, they put pressure on you. They get to the free throw line. Casson Wallace gets to the line. He gets to the basket. Chet rebounding, trying to get his open, you know, his open put backs and things like that. They get to the paint. And that's the only thing the Celtics didn't do last night. They didn't touch the paint. Really?
Matt
Yeah, most definitely. Like you said, Casey Wallace had a hell of a game yesterday. Eric Wiggins has been hooping, but he did not show up at all yesterday. Put up a dud yesterday. But Casey Wallace hooped out yesterday. I want to talk a little bit more about the Celtics. You talked about this on the Stream, man. Luke Cornett be giving them crazy minutes, but Al Horford was really hooping last night.
Leah
Yeah. Oh, yeah.
DJ Will
He kept it close.
Matt
He played 40. Yeah, bro. He didn't play, what, 33 minutes yesterday. What's his plus? His plus minus had to be od yesterday, bro. Damn. It. Went to a negative nine. They sold on Al because I was keeping him afloat. That's crazy.
Leah
Your plus minus don't say nothing because he in there. He was in the group. He was in there with a group that wasn't playing well. But he was playing well.
DJ Will
Yeah.
Leah
So your plus minus is basically an overall team thing. Like, if you in there with. If you're playing good and your team's not while you in there, it's fucked up. I could have 25 and a quarter and we down seven at the half, but I was killing. But our team just had a bad quarter. But now my plus minus is a minus seven. Whatever.
Matt
I believe in all teamwork, but in that situation. Hey, I was hooping, bro. Don't put that plus minus on me, bro. Y'all niggas wasn't hitting me.
Leah
I'm pretty sure Luke Cornette plus minus is high, though. Or it's gotta be even. He had to break even or something. Cause he was.
Matt
He was negative one. That's crazy.
Leah
I mean, they lost the game, so I Get it? But he was 14 minutes.
Matt
Didn't miss a shot. Come on, bro.
DJ Will
Yesterday, they needed Peyton Pritchard.
Leah
He didn't show up.
DJ Will
He didn't give him nothing yesterday, man.
Matt
Dang.
Leah
Cause his base, his game is. You know, I love Peyton, but his game is based off him making threes.
DJ Will
Yeah.
Leah
So if he's not hitting threes two for nine, he don't really do anything else. You know what I mean?
DJ Will
Right.
Leah
Like, he can, but just in that offense, he's not making his three. I mean, he a good defender. He competes. But if he's not making his three, it don't really matter.
Matt
And then look at Drew. What did Drew have nine last night, if I'm correct? Yeah, that's not gonna get it done. Yeah, it's not good enough. Is that more to say about how good OKC was? Are we gonna say Boston had an off night?
Leah
I mean, OKC competed, but we watched Drew Holiday literally walked to the basket and kicked the ball up.
Matt
He probably had another eight points if he just either dunked it.
DJ Will
Cause he was scoring at will. It was light when he actually shot the ball.
Leah
That wasn't a three. He probably scored it heavy on if.
Matt
It wasn't a three.
DJ Will
For real. Because I think he was probably wondering for seven. I think it's up there for. For threes. He was. He was settling. All of them were settling. JB was for sure settling.
Matt
1 for 7 from 3 is crazy.
DJ Will
Him going to the hole and kicking it out. I'm like, yeah, he throwing the game, bro. Yeah, acting like Terry Rozier. He has so many opportunities to score a layup and was just kicking it out. I'm like, that ain't even your game. Damn near like you a aggressive, like, going to the basket type of player.
Matt
Hey, man, free Terry Rose here, man. I don't know what he got going on, but free the guys, man, for sure. Super Chat.
Leah
You know, somebody wrote me on Instagram like, 30 times, like, I'm the dude that was the middleman between him and Johntae Porter. I'm like, bro, get out my. Hey, stop writing me, bro. I think I blocked him.
DJ Will
The real agent.
Matt
Super Chat said, malcolm is nice. And 2k Mike was getting FGAs up, but the lights were too bright for him. When you running with us, T. Young Horatio? Is this really. Is this Malcolm Burner account? Let's make sure.
DJ Will
I just want y'all to know I have 14 points, four assists, two rebounds.
Matt
You shot like the damn Celtics. And three last night.
DJ Will
Let's not talk about 6 for 20 and 6 for 21.
Leah
In the pickup game, you don't even play 2K. Why do you think you ever get 20 shots?
Matt
But he also told me he went 1 for 10 to his first 11 attempts. And I said, so you decided to keep shooting?
Leah
Like, who let you. Who playing with y'all was playing with him? Mike told them, if y'all don't pass me the ball, I'm quitting. Hold on. So y'all play with them? Yeah, with this dude right here? Yeah.
Matt
Yoko. Right? So we need a live report.
DJ Will
And Mike is never scared of them bright lights, bro.
Matt
He bring them.
DJ Will
He lives behind these, for sure.
Matt
Oh, man, that's crazy.
Leah
But shooting 20 shots and you really ass at 2k is crazy.
DJ Will
14 points and we won by 30.
Leah
That make it even worse. So y'all playing some bums and you missed that many shots?
DJ Will
And y'all some hoes for tell. For letting him tell y'all that. Like, he good.
Matt
Yeah, because they came up so quick.
DJ Will
I quit. Y'all passing the ball. They definitely kept passing the ball.
Leah
I would have been like, he gonna be an AI soon as hell.
Matt
Just gonna be CPU ain't never played.
DJ Will
A serious basketball game in his life.
Matt
Shout out for free. You might forget that. Up with that.
Leah
I'm just gonna say that.
Matt
Shout out to the kids. SGA becomes a seven player with 60 straight games of 20 points or more. That is crazy. We look through this list of people who have accomplished this. You got KD from 2015-16. He has 64 in a row. Kobe0506 has 62 in a row. MJ has 69 in a row. From. That's crazy, man. That is crazy. 90 to 91. 69 games to 20, plus jabar 62. 71 to 72. Will did 80. Oscar robertson did 76.
Leah
Yeah, you better put some respect on Oscar name, boy.
DJ Will
Oh, you talking to me?
Leah
Yeah.
DJ Will
Oscar who?
Leah
Robertson.
Matt
Hey, you see what Oscar Robinson was talking about? Draymond.
DJ Will
I don't give a. Draymond. My. Not that.
Leah
76 in a row, boy.
DJ Will
Yeah, man. Respect. Okay, I guess you shouldn't.
Leah
Me for sure.
DJ Will
Move on, man.
Matt
Now, after this game, can we finally say we feel confident that Thunder are real contenders? We keep talking about the Boston Celtics. That's welcome this year. I know the regular season don't always.
DJ Will
Matter, but they don't. Because Jeff and them play good against the Cavs, and you see what happened to them. So regular season really don't mean that, man. You gotta really.
Leah
It's really Middle fingers in the air to you, but I'm being really respectful.
DJ Will
No, I didn't mean. I'm just saying like a team like that play really well.
Matt
Nightmare like that.
DJ Will
It's a Cavs team, great regular season run. But, you know, you got to prove yourself in that, in that playoff, man. It's a different beast. For real.
Leah
Yeah. Because that could just be one. That's one game right there. They gotta wake up two days later and do it again.
DJ Will
Facts.
Matt
It's different for sure, man. Shout out to OKC for getting a dub yesterday.
Leah
They play well, though.
DJ Will
I'm still my guys.
Matt
Most definitely. Rockets got the win yesterday. 111, 104 against the Suns. Hey, load up to Drake. Stephen Adams, young Plumber got into it yesterday.
Leah
Real plumly.
DJ Will
Damn, Stephen Adams.
Matt
Steve Adams so strong he hadn't even mobilized, bro.
DJ Will
That's father time, though.
Matt
Yeah, that what caused that, though.
DJ Will
I mean, what is that? What you doing, bro? Let go of me. Yeah. Steve Adams out of pocket, bro.
Leah
Steve Apps Plumbing from Indiana, bro.
DJ Will
That's crazy talk about that. I hate that Draymond be doing that, like holding people under their arm, bro. Let me go.
Leah
I'm from Indiana. I ain't going.
Matt
That's hilarious, man.
DJ Will
Shout out to the Plumbers, man.
Matt
That's what the Suns is good for right now, man. Shout out to Jayla Green got it done yesterday, 29 and 7. Shay gone at 20 and 7 as well. Brad Bill hooped out with 25 KD and book both had 19. Jalen Grant, we've been talking about his development team. What's the next step for him, what he need to do to go to the next level to be a pretty much all star.
Leah
Obviously he gotta raise his scoring. I think he's at, what, 21 a game? 20 somewhere around there. Maybe I'm wrong. I don't know. But his overall 21, like, he's killing. It's a great year for him, but his presence just gotta be felt a little more pulled. Like, you gotta know he the guy on the team. And I don't think we. Anytime we talk about him, we don't feel like he the guy. We feel like he wanted the guys, right. We don't think it's him as the go to player on the Rockets. We like, man, we could trade Jalen Green. You know, we kind of go with the Thompson twin a little bit. And I think the next level for him is just knowing he the guy and embracing that. Because, you know, with a new coach, Ma, you gotta get to know the coaches, and he's starting to turn into his own person. He's starting to mature a little bit and you see it in his game. So I think his next step is just knowing that he's the guy.
DJ Will
He got all the qualities.
Matt
Yeah, most definitely.
Leah
All the dudes around him gotta believe it too, though. So without however much work he put in the off season during the year or whatever, the guys around him gotta believe he that guy. But his talent is there. Like, he got all the tools to be the guy, like you said. But like watching K cutting him take that step.
Matt
Okay.
Leah
Being a guy, it's his turn. You know, they've been, I guess, you know, rivals. Rivals Competitors or whatever.
DJ Will
I can't wait to see what that really turned into as they really grow old and leave. For real.
Leah
Yeah, but Cade took that step. He had 26 a game, almost 10 assists. Like, you know, he the guy. Like.
DJ Will
Yeah, it's a landscape.
Leah
They go as far as Detroit go. Yeah, as far Detroit goes, as far as Cade goes. But we can't say that the same about the Rockets. So we, like any given night, one of the guys from the Rockets can be the best player on the team.
Matt
Yeah.
DJ Will
You also have Shay gone too, so.
Matt
That was gonna be my counter to that. Obviously. We feel like K might be got the edge on him right now, but the fact that he does have another all star and other quality players, I'm not gonna say Detroit don't. But you like this Rockets team, say they probably have a little bit more talent than that Detroit team. For sure. He gotta pass the ball more.
Leah
It ain't that. It's just like, SGA got talent, talented players. He got Jay Williams.
DJ Will
He's talking about separating yourself.
Leah
Yeah.
Matt
Oh, yeah, I'm wrong. I'm just saying that that's the argument that I see a lot.
Leah
J Dub chat. And you just know Shay is the guy.
Matt
I'm rolling.
Leah
And Shay was on the team where he was with Chris Paul, Dennis Schroeder, and we never said he was a guy at that time. We thought C.P. was a guy. We knew he was nice. He was averaging 20. He was kind of the same mode as Jalen Green. He was getting shit done. He was averaging 20.
DJ Will
True.
Leah
And then he took that next leap and that's all he gotta do is take that next step. Like, all right, yeah, I got Shaygon. He nice. He my center. He giving me 20 points a game. But all right, I'm gonna give you 25.
DJ Will
Yeah.
Leah
Yeah.
DJ Will
Jaylen Green gotta be like, bro, I need that ball in the fourth quarter. Yeah, like I gotta be that guy.
Leah
Okay.
Matt
I can see that being the next.
Leah
Step, but they gotta believe it. Once your team believe it. He got the talent. Obviously it jumps off the screen when you watch him play. Yeah, but he just gotta take that next step.
DJ Will
Yeah.
Matt
Jalen Green is cold for sure. That definitely missed forever. Fleet. I'm happy he's back in the lineup. I know Thompson twin is out, but they are a different team when he's on the court. For sure. Man. Some of those rookie mistakes they were doing losing those close games. I don't think they lose those with Fred. But for sure shout out to them for getting a dub yesterday. I don't know what we say about the Suns. We don't know what they gonna do. Yeah, we know they gotta trade people cause they don't have no assets. So we'll figure that out. I don't think they should fire Bud.
Leah
I mean it's one year. I mean, shit, that team was just a bad team. Yeah, you can't put that on Bud. I told you Bud do way better or less. Like he was biting. He was fighting an uphill battle. You got two, I guess you can say Premier. Two guards.
Matt
Most definitely one of them.
Leah
One of them gonna be uncomfortable. We said that from the beginning.
DJ Will
Yep.
Leah
And now it look like they all uncomfortable. D book don't look like the normal D book.
DJ Will
Yeah, and Bradley Bill just looked confused on the court yesterday.
Matt
And he hooped out. He had 25 yesterday.
DJ Will
Yeah, but I'm just saying it's just like, man, he couldn't even get like in a real rhythm. He kept running to the corner. I' like, damn, that ain't even how he hoop.
Matt
Yeah.
Leah
Cause they used to being focal points in the offense. Yeah, and when you the third option, you might get some easy shots or whatever, but you ain't a focal point. That's why I said that team just didn't mix well. Like if KD was a natural big maybe if KD was a pick and pop four man, KD a two guard. Book a two guard. Brad Bill a two guard. Like if he was a pick and pop. I don't know, if he played like Al Horford, then it might have worked. You know what I mean? He said screens picking Pop and them two dudes played off of KD screens and stuff like that. But Katie a two guard, he needs screens.
Matt
Needed out the wing for sure.
Leah
Yeah. So just not a good fit.
Matt
Super chat. James Ass Shay 2025 versus Harden. Breakout season with the Rockets. Who y'all starting the team around? Oof.
DJ Will
I'm rolling with Jimmy. I'm rolling with James.
Matt
I'm going with James Harden.
DJ Will
But I love Shay, though. What Shay doing with that young core, I think people forget too. James was winning 50 plus games with them teams as well.
Matt
James, Harvard was going toe to toe. One of the best teams in NBA history.
DJ Will
Yeah, I think people fail to realize that as much as they say he was dominating the ball, his teams were still overachieving at that time.
Matt
So for sure, great question. For sure. Let's get straight to it, man. T Wolves six straight win yesterday, man. Took care of the Nuggets. Built an ass situation. 115 to 95. The real Junior is back, baby. 25 4ae had 29, yo. Cooped out 34. Eight as usual. And you know, Russ had 19. Six straight. Dub, man, how you feel about it? 10 straight when Junior plays, that's.
DJ Will
That's a good win for the team, bro.
Matt
Okay.
DJ Will
Played against a quality team yesterday, so that's a good dub. I don't want to put too much sauce on it, but definitely, definitely see them. Good to see them in the up and up for sure.
Matt
Most definitely. Super chat. Delane White asks y'all think the Nuggets are better with Westbrook in the starting lineup. And what you thinking ever happened to his mid range? I don't know. Russians have a crazy midi.
DJ Will
I like him as starring pg, but he's to me, valuable off the bench too. For them.
Matt
I mean, they went on the Runway when Aaron Gordon was out.
Leah
Yeah, I mean, I like Westbrook. I mean, people go through ups and downs during the season, so this might be a bad loss, but I don't know what happened to the Midi. That mother used to be deadly automatic. I mean, that come with like, he had so much freedom, man. He had so much free reign to do what he wanted. Like now you got you getting 11, 12 shots when you was used to getting 28 to 30 shots.
DJ Will
That's a big change.
Leah
It might not look as good no more. Like you can miss 10, you still knew you had 10.
DJ Will
That makes sense.
Leah
You know what I mean? Your confidence was different.
DJ Will
Yeah.
Leah
When you're only getting 12 shots now when you was getting 30, it's a little different.
DJ Will
12 shots is good on that goddamn team.
Leah
Yeah, but okay, 30 shots a game.
DJ Will
Yeah, y'all move out the way. It's good with Arenas. Washington wizard ball.
Leah
Yeah.
Matt
You got MPJ and Jamal Murray. And then, yo. Yeah, we got no touches for you.
DJ Will
So Russ Is what the fourth option?
Matt
No, maybe fifth. Because Aaron Gordon need touches.
DJ Will
Jesus. He's still performing like this. Shout out to Russ, man.
Matt
Professional, bro.
DJ Will
Going to one to five, man. You still capable of getting the. Dude, you raw.
Leah
He a legend, bro.
Matt
Yeah, bro. One of the best ever. Still impacts the game, bro. Even he ain't shooting well. He gonna play hard and go rebound.
DJ Will
Yeah.
Matt
Legend for sure. Yeah. Super chat is Ricky May ask how many big market teams are there in the NBA? Me always says this guy should be in a better market, but I feel like there's only four cities. It's not too many big markets.
Leah
Yeah. It's only New York, California. Well, let me say not California, New York, L.A. chicago and Boston. Them like the big markets team. So that's really it.
DJ Will
Only four.
Leah
La, the New York, the biggest.
Matt
Yeah, for sure.
Leah
La, New York, Chicago and then Boston.
Matt
Boston for sure.
Leah
Yeah.
Matt
You're not gonna say any Florida teams because they weren't even going.
Leah
LeBron was at small market. Texas, small market teams. I mean, Golden State now. Golden State's a big market now. San Fran, the tech world. It's a big market.
Matt
Shout out to Steph. Damn.
DJ Will
Is it?
Matt
That is the Maverick.
Leah
I don't know if the Mavericks, that's a small market team.
Matt
I was gonna say, I know about TV market.
DJ Will
Philly up there.
Leah
Philly a big market. But yeah, I mean it is as.
Matt
Relevant to the NBA. I don't know because it's not like they ever like pushing them.
Leah
Nah. But at LA, Chicago, New York.
Matt
Yeah. The NBA is not happy about a 76ers final.
DJ Will
The Wizards being hired in Boston is.
Leah
Funny as hell, but they push Boston so much.
Matt
Yeah.
Leah
Ever since ever. You know what I mean?
DJ Will
Yeah.
Leah
Boston always been.
DJ Will
That's a solid list though.
Matt
For sure. All right, man. Five and five the last 10 games. Nuggets think they need to figure it out before they go into the playoffs or just. They ain't tripping. They just ready to get started.
DJ Will
I'm be real, bro. I'm just ready for the playoffs to start.
Matt
Okay. Last 17 games, everybody's trying to Olympic across the line.
DJ Will
Yeah. I'm just ready for the games to begin, bro.
Leah
Yeah, People lock in differently for the playoffs.
Matt
Okay.
Leah
You would love to see a team rolling before they hit the playoffs, like catching their stride. But all you gotta do is when your last six or seven games and you rolling.
DJ Will
Yeah.
Leah
You know what I mean? Like you. You hooping. Hooping. So if they go on the street, they went four in a row before the playoffs start. It's like, oh, okay, okay, here come the Nuggets.
Matt

And just in time for tax season. On this week's episode, we're chatting with CPA Lisa Green Lewis about how small businesses can tackle their taxes using TurboTax Business.
Matt
A Forbes study mentioned that a whopping 93% of small businesses overpay their taxes and 17% of Gen Zers believed that you could write off any expense as a business expense. So can't blame them. It's really important to do your taxes right.

Grown Up Stuff.
Matt
Flow Assumptions asks, even though Boston has the best group on film, is it their dynasty or is it set up in the air? Which French odds would dominate this era? That could definitely go back to back.
Leah
I mean, they can go back to back, but I think it's up in the air. I don't see no. I mean, I think Boston is the best team, but it ain't clear cut. Like Cavaliers are playing great basketball. Yeah, Thunder playing great basketball. Now you got the Lakers. If Bron come back healthy, they in the mix. Denver in the mix. It ain't no clear cut. We think Boston is the favorite because we've seen what they did last year and they returned everybody and we think they playing at a high level. But it's up in the air. We just watched Boston lose last night.
Matt
Most definitely.
Leah
They ain't had J Dub, so I don't know.
Matt
Yeah, we just watched a Mavs team go to the finals last year that nobody's on the team anymore. It could change any year. But shout out to Celtics. They've got a chance to make a dynasty. Tony Reyes asked, with high school ball wrapping up, how important is it to pop off and stay? Also, does any deal with kids transferring to not play against competition that is everywhere? Tony, everybody ducking smoke.
Leah
Yeah. I mean, I don't know if they transferring the Duck Smoke, but.
DJ Will
Yeah. Cause it ain't. I mean, who you ducking for real here? I don't really.
Leah
I mean, people dunk competition a lot.
Matt
That's what I'm saying.
Leah
In general, people don't.
DJ Will
I don't know about here, though.
Matt
Everywhere, people duck smoke.
DJ Will
Unless you going. I mean, because we pretty much even all the way around. We got a lot of good teams. And you ain't really. You ain't going from 4A to 1A damn near here.
Matt
No, I'm saying kids, like, on the roster. Like, not. Well, I ain't gonna say the school, because that'd be important. But say somebody. All right. I don't want to compete for a starting spot. I'ma dip to this school. That's what I mean. I'm not saying, like, you got to play somebody, but, you know, we know a lot of kids that, you know. Hey, I ain't gonna get the nods. I'm starting here. All right. I'm gonna go see what's up over here. That's what I was meaning about.
DJ Will
I got y'all. All right. I'm on the same page as y'all now probably, though. I just. I don't know. It's the transfer now. It's a open. What do you call it? Open playing field. I guess, to put it in smaller terms, like, kids can go anywhere now. So. I don't know. It'll be different for the city now. We ain't had that leisure.
Matt
Nah. Was not letting people go nowhere.
DJ Will
Yeah. So it's different here. We gotta see how that really pan out.
Matt
For sure. Good question. Knicks beat the bikes yesterday in OT. 114 to 113. Go ahead, load up to Drake Kel Bridges for game yesterday.
DJ Will
That is a good question, though. Cause even with you like kids, when you was at pike, y'all really was supposed to have a crazy whip. A lot of people disappeared when y'all was in school. Had to like Morgan Newton. Just say a few names. Not to throw.
Matt
Shout out to my dog. Morgan.
DJ Will
Yeah. Hugh and them, they left.
Matt
So Opportunity, the block was too hot.
DJ Will
Yeah. Especially at that guard position.
Matt
You talking about all these people who are Division 1 point guards.
Leah
That's what?
DJ Will
Damn. It made me think about y'all. School. I was like, damn. Nah, Tegan, them, they had a. Every cold guard.
Leah
But I ain't gonna lie. This ain't no shades, none of them. Especially on my dog Q. But once you left and you got your opportunity, you hooped. But when adversity hit, it made you. Like, if you went through that, when adversity hit, you was used to it.
DJ Will
Okay.
Leah
Like, if you went to school or wherever you went, you was used to fighting through something. Like, damn. Cause I wanted to leave, and I would have left. I think that would have played a role when I was at Wake Forest. Damn. When I wasn't playing issues. There you in the battle. Yeah. I probably been like, shit. But battling Tony James and Reese and all them for playing time all the time, I was used to it. Like, I just gotta kill him. I gotta do this. I gotta show him better than this, him. That's what made me not have friends, though.
DJ Will
Ah, okay.
Leah
That was the downside of it. Yeah, that's the downside. I ain't had no friends. Like, Ish was just so nice that he still was my friend.
Matt
But shout out to Ish, talk to me about it.
Leah
It was the other way around. Would not have been his friend. You know what I mean? If he was acting, I was acting. I wouldn't. He's just a nice guy. And even, like, in school, like, me and Reese and all them, we compete and like, we damn near ain't like each other. Almost like we. We rock with each other. Yeah, I guess. Because we had to. But we ain't really like each other.
DJ Will
Okay.
Matt
Shout out. To cheat my dog for sure.
Leah
Cause we was competing.
DJ Will
Yeah, niggas was competing. A little dangerous, you know?
Leah
You like, bro, we competing too much.
DJ Will
Yeah. Kids miss that in school, though. Now it ain't like that no more.
Matt
But the crazy thing is, both y'all went to the league. Y'all prospective sports.
Leah
Yeah. But the thing was, we still wanted to win.
Matt
Yep.
DJ Will
Yeah.
Leah
Like I wanted. When we got on the court together, they still wanted to win. But when we was in practice, it's like, I'm better now, but that adversity give you a little more. When it's always handed to you, bro. Man, when it's not handed to you in your future.
DJ Will
When you get. When you get. When you get older, at some point.
Matt
You gotta deal with it.
Leah
Rubber, meet the road. And I seen a bunch of people. I ain't say. I ain't say, boy. About to tap in what I A say. I ain't say ro sports.
DJ Will
Real adversity.
Leah
I a say ro sports.
Matt
Ro sports gets you through that adversity.
Leah
No, without the rubber.
Matt
Hey, play the clip, play the game. Play for game. Wow.
Leah
Remember how everybody hated his jumper early in the year?
DJ Will
It don't look. It looked different now.
Matt
Well, that first game, that jump shot looked wicked. That's how the first time sticky your.
DJ Will
Song got like that as well.
Matt
Yeah, that's.
Leah
It's back to his old jump shot.
DJ Will
Yeah, it is. I'm tired of niggas jumping on me.
Matt
Hey, look at Cat arms though. Please play again.
DJ Will
Yeah, any reach out for a hug like that is crazy.
Matt
Please replay it again. Look at Cat arms in the corner.
DJ Will
I definitely don't want to hug Cat.
Matt
I'm not supposed to throw you the ball there. It's two seconds left.
DJ Will
Look how he reached out for a hook like let it clear the roll.
Matt
That's a nasty ass team, man. Shout out to the nigga. Oh, man, oh man. Listen, Mikhail Bridge was crazy yesterday. 33 and the game winner OG hooped out with 23 and 7. Cat did the stank with 217 school had 30 yesterday. Your mans unfortunately they took the L yesterday. It's funny because Mikhail Bridges went in like an interview, I guess. Basically talking about the playing time with Tibs and Tibbs responded, quote, unquote. Could we play that clip please?
Leah
Tears don't give a what they talking about.
Matt
Tiz broke it down real simple.
Leah
I like to hear what he said.
Matt
Opportunities.
Leah
I was wondering what your thoughts were.
DJ Will
Well, we never had a conversation about.
Matt
It, but the facts are the facts.
DJ Will
And when you look at our our team and the way it works is.
Leah
Jalen plays 35 minutes.
DJ Will
That's he's in the top 20. I think he's 20th or 21st in minutes played.
Matt
Cat is a primary scorer.
DJ Will
He plays less than Jalen, So he's like 25th in the league in average minutes. Your wings play more, right? So they're matched up with primary scorers.
Matt
So the way it works is if.
DJ Will
Jayson Tatum is in the game and Jaylen Brown is in the game, OG will be in the game and McHale will be in the game. When those guys go out, they go out.
Leah
When they come back, they come back.
DJ Will
You try to keep the matchups the league, all those guys are playing 36, 37 minutes.
Matt
Whether it's Durant, about 10 more seconds, Tatum a Brown.
DJ Will
The Wings are going to play more. So they're primary wing defenders.
Leah
So that's the way it works.
Matt
And then sometimes you're caught in matchups.
DJ Will
So the Lakers are wear big wings.
Matt
So you got to deal with that.
DJ Will
You look at McHale's minutes have gone down. We started the season with Landry Hurt and deuce with not 100%. So our wings did play more.
Leah
So are they playing a little bit more than I would like?
DJ Will
Yeah, probably. 35, 36 is where you.
Leah
That's where Mikhail is. You look at the last 10 games, he's playing 35 minutes a game.
DJ Will
And four of those games are overtime games.
Matt
Yeah. Hey, Tiz broke it down. Very simple for y'all. We talk about he be killing people. I know that. We gonna let them jokes fly anyway, but it all makes sense to me.
Leah
All right. Shit. Yeah, I'll see. Let's cut your miss down to 29s. He has to be mad as fuck. Well, trust me, I was one of them guys. Play 29 minutes and you go somewhere and play 36. You like. Oh, I could have been averaging 20 my whole career.
DJ Will
Yeah, you just gotta stay healthy.
Leah
That's all you gotta do. But, man, don't nobody want to come out the game, man. Scratch off. They don't want to come out the game.
Matt
It's Cap.
Leah
No, it's Cap. Fam, bro. I mean, I was talking to P.J. tucker yesterday. We, bro, people do not want to come out the game. I used to see him run to the bench and be mad when they subbed him out. Like, what we doing? I'm like, you played 43 minutes?
DJ Will
Yeah.
Matt
Shout out to PJ newest Nick.
DJ Will
Yeah. When you competing, too? You definitely don't want to come out.
Leah
I just want to come out the game. Like, when I was in my prom, I did not want to come out the game. I used to be shitty. Like, what, Sit on the bench for eight minutes straight?
Matt
Damn.
DJ Will
Yeah.
Leah
And you watch Kyle Lowry playing 38 minutes a game.
DJ Will
You like Lil BBL, Kyle?
Leah
Nah, I'm just saying, you do not want to come out the game, bro. So that's cool. You ain't never heard Jalen Brunson complain.
Matt
Yeah, the girl said, I like. I like how you started. Me and Mikel never had a conversation because. I don't care what you talking about. You gonna play regardless. Shout out to tears, man. The Blazers lost the last five games. But what you like about this team, man? Young Corey, you spoke highly of them.
Leah
I like how hard they play.
Matt
Okay.
Leah
They exciting to watch. They need to get rid of Grant for Jamie. Grant? Yeah. Not even for him. He just. He Just don't fit that team. Like they had something going with them young boys. They had one dude coming off the bench, man, I can't remember his name, but he was competing hard. What's my guy's an Audi. What's his name that went to Playton Washington? I don't know. I say his name.
Matt
Avija. Yeah, 2715.
Leah
He'd be playing well. I just like them young guys. Like let them young guys rock out, sit Jeremy Grant down and all them and just let these young dudes. Exciting team, some high flyer. Losing DeAndre Ayton though that played a role in why they on this losing streak though.
Matt
Most definitely.
DJ Will
Somebody could use Jeremy Grant.
Matt
Hell yeah.
Leah
Yeah. But yeah, go ahead and move him.
Matt
Hey Simon, sue go somewhere.
Leah
Nah, you gotta keep him.
Matt
Keep him.
DJ Will
Okay, keep him. Cause Harper on the way.
Leah
But deandre Ayton losing him is the reason they fell off like that.
Matt
Okay.
Leah
He was playing well.
Matt
I'd love to see what draft pick they get and see what Chauncey do with him. Especially if it's a guard. Like to have your head coach be Chauncey Billings, bro, that's a hell of a head start. So if you get a Dylan Harper type player, that'd be a dangerous combo.
Leah
I was kind of struggling with Scoot. I'm like, you kind of built like Chauncey. You way more athletic. Like why is it not. I mean he had 30 points this game but why is it not translating so quick? Yeah, like. And you got the opportunity.
DJ Will
Probably still learning the game too.
Leah
I get that. But you took a different role. Like you've been in the NBA system for longer than everybody else. Like G League, G League unite. What he did two years in the G League or I don't even know.
DJ Will
How long he did one.
Matt
Just one.
Leah
But I'm just saying you took that road.
DJ Will
True.
Leah
Your rookie year, second year, almost finished. You ending it right now in a good note with a 30 point game. I'm just wondering like what took so long for it to click.
Matt
Gotta click. But I do. I'm interested to see what they will do if they have opportunity to get a guard in a situation.
Leah
I think you got to. Because on a bad. I ain't gonna say a bad team, but on a developing team, you want to see your number two pick have some moments. Like he should be around 18 points a game for sure. Even if he's shooting 40%, bare minimum.
DJ Will
For sure.
Leah
Yeah, he's 17. 18 a game easy. Yeah, 18 and six on that team though.
Matt
When you say With Jeremy Grant and a Simons, he not getting. He's supposed to take more shots than them.
Leah
Yeah, I mean, Simons gonna be the guy. Yeah.
Matt
He's the number one option, but is he the third option?
Leah
They play so fast. Okay, like, think about all the kids that we seen get drafted. Like, Lamelo was what, two pick, three pick, whatever he was. We see him his second year, he made the all star game down there.
Matt
That's a fact. He did.
Leah
Just all these guys. Like, even Lonzo, his second year, we seen like a leap. Like, Alonzo gonna be straight. We haven't. We don't be like, is Scoop gonna be straight? We kind of be like, hmm, yeah. We already talking about getting another guard, but if he was at like 16, 17, we'd be like, ah.
Matt
Nah, I agree. Different conversation.
DJ Will
Pressure and hype didn't help either. He had a high. He damn had Zion Williamson hype coming into the league.
Leah
Yeah. People were saying, should they pick Wimby or Scoop?
DJ Will
Yeah.
Matt
Remember those conversations?
DJ Will
Real bro.
Matt
I was tweaking, but those were real conversations for sure.
DJ Will
Get well soon, though. 13, 5 for top heavy first round picks. Second round pick is pretty good, but it's just more expected out of you.
Matt
It's a year before, though.
Leah
Dang. 14 though. 13.
DJ Will
13 and 5.
Matt
Now he's not a bag. He was 14 last year, but it's not a bad.
Leah
Yeah, I mean, he averaged like the.
DJ Will
18Th through 30th pick. That's solid.
Leah
He did he number two pick.
DJ Will
That's what I said. It's more expected out of you.
Leah
Oh, yeah, that's what I. Yeah.
DJ Will
Nah, bro, that's what I was saying.
Leah
Like, now you the 20th pick. 13 and 5.
DJ Will
That's solid.
Leah
Oh, this looking bright.
DJ Will
Yeah, that's what I'm saying. That's what I'm saying.
Leah
But the two pick. Nah.
Matt
Yeah, he was the third pick of that draft for sure.
Leah
I mean, third. Whatever.
Matt
Cause B mill one too.
DJ Will
I think it was born in 04. That's crazy, boy.
Leah
Third pick. You just want to see a little more like Brandon Miller being 2 pick. We see like. Yeah, man, he.
DJ Will
He liked that.
Leah
Yeah, he got it written on him.
DJ Will
And he on the team with two other 20 plus point tonight, you know, Mikel and Lamelo.
Leah
So you just want to see a little more. Yeah, but I mean, he got. He got time though, for sure.
Matt
Super chat ass. Y'all gonna stop down playing okc? That defense was amazing last night. And if they play that kind of defense in the playoffs, they can. Anyone on My mama and be here. You look like a milk nut with a lining bull.
Leah
All right, all right.
Matt
Learn how to type mama. Mike23 shout out to Richie.
DJ Will
Man, I'ma laugh at this. GP bro. Right on for sending the donation money, gifts, donations.
Matt
Will the future Vegas NBA team be considered a big city? Will big names players want to go there? No. That market would have to be created for basketball.
DJ Will
Charlotte. Nah. NOLA for Cooper.
Matt
Ricky May said best landing spot for Cooper Flag. Charlotte, Washington, Utah. Arnola. Send him to no. Let's go plant the flag.
DJ Will
Those are the four. Come on. Enola.

DJ Will

Leah
I like him just go to Utah, man.
Matt
Why you trying to send him to.
DJ Will
My boy Trey Savelle?
Matt
Nah, turn him up. Send him to watch.
Leah
It's very finny like it just. He's going to Utah. And like the white Karl Malone shout out to my dog Lou Will. He made a great point. Like you know people saying he gonna go back to Duke cause he hate them teams same like they're gonna be the same team next year.
DJ Will
You will be pissed to go back to school around get injured or something.
Leah
But it's literally gonna be the same four teams next year.
Matt
Imagine going back to school and Utah still picking you higgle ball. You think we bullshit we would trade everybody on this team. You will be in Utah.
Leah
Literally.
Matt
Flip Wowski. He'll stay another year.
DJ Will
We're gonna start next year a Shiloh Sanders bid in school. Boy, skip a team literally.
Leah
They're gonna be the same teams next year.
Matt
But they got Walker Kessler out here dying to get this pick. You think you ain't about to be in Utah? You crazy as hell.
Leah
Yeah, literally tap in.
DJ Will
I pray they don't get no go ahead.
Leah
Go ahead and get your multi million.
DJ Will
Dollar the top five. Because Harper nor other crash out deserve to go there.
Matt
They better not say it's better than Utah. So I know. They better not dare.
Leah
Hey, Harper. Ace Bailey do not fit what y'all got going on.
DJ Will
They gonna break every rule out there.
Matt
Gonna be your boy out there for sure.
DJ Will
They do not want to soak in Utah, bro. We trying to in and out for sure.
Matt
Imagine getting traded for something that's crazy. All right, man. Some more games took place yesterday. Hawks took care of the Hornets yesterday. 123 to 110. Trey Young were crazy yesterday. 35 and 1221 for 21 from the free throw, which is insane. Miles Bridges hooped out with 31. 11. Melo had 25. 9. They took care of business yesterday. Shout out to Awful, bro. Yeah, they.
Leah
I told y'all that, though. That's a bad basketball team, bro.
Matt
Don't worry. The real's on the way.
Leah
Oh, let me see, bro. Go to the standings.
Matt
Right there. 14, baby.
Leah
They. They competing with the Wizards. Fight for that.
DJ Will
Let us get that number one pick, boy. It's up.
Leah
I pray the Hornets don't get the number one pick.
DJ Will
I ain't, boy.
Matt
No, I ain't mad, though. Come on.
Leah
A. Carolina picking him in. Carolina. They have to trade people, though. They have to revamp their whole squad.
Matt
What if they got him and Trader Mello?
DJ Will
They said he on the block.
Leah
They would have to.
Matt
Damn.
DJ Will
Nah, I would trade Brandon Miller.
Leah
Nah, they gotta trade.
Matt
Nah, they ain't trading Brandon Miller.
DJ Will
I would if I got a wing like Cooper flag they gonna trade.
Leah
What I'm saying is. Cause Lamelo's a great talent. He unbelievable. But to make this thing work, we gotta. Cooper gotta be the face. He ain't out facing Lamelo for us.
Matt
But like, yeah, bro.
Leah
Lamelo, we too lit, bro.
Matt
I want a max deal. I'm outside in the Lambo.
Leah
Yeah, you could never. Homie, you never gonna outshine Lamelo.
DJ Will
Nah.
Matt
Yeah, bro. Me and Jello put a music video Miller's game.
Leah
Yeah, everybody.
DJ Will
Six, seven. Damn. Mello B. Miller, Mikel.
Leah
Cause you gotta hand Cooper Flag the franchise. Cause it's only right. He the only white American star right now.
DJ Will
That's a fact.
Leah
So, like, if you don't hand your franchise to him as a sad franchise, you damn near out of pocket because you know the fan base is about to be crazy. And he went to Duke and he don't. He the only white dude from Duke that everybody likes. Think about it. All the white stars from Duke, we hate it. Christian Lakener, people hate it. JJ Reddick, they hated him.
Matt
Grayson Allen.
Leah
Grayson Allen hated him. Cooper Flag the only one. Everybody like I with him.
DJ Will
Nah, That's a fact.
Leah
So if you don't hand your franchise to him and y'all suck you out.
Matt
Of pocket for sure. We shall see you soon, man. Get well soon. To them, the Raptors took care of the 76 yesterday. 118, 105. Nobody cares about that game. But Quinn Grimes had 29 turn up.
Leah
I told you, starting two guard.
DJ Will
The fact that y'all got him is by himself on that stat line is crazy.
Matt
So the math, bro, Killing, bro. Quinn Grimes reports. Keep moving, bro. We like terrible people, bro.
DJ Will
Other people scored in that game.
Matt
They did get 29.
Leah
Quinn Grimes got 29. It's time for the extension points.
Matt
Yeah, he about to get paid off. Look, hey, why we zooming in on everybody else scores? No, I don't care.
DJ Will

All right. He gonna toy out.
Matt
Oh, yeah. If Cooper Flag is headed to Utah, they will have to trade him.
DJ Will
That's a good pickup for somebody too.
Matt
Hell, yeah. Good win for the Grizzlies. Nothing to talk about there. The spurs beat the Mavs yesterday 126 to 116. Man. De'Aaron Fox went crazy with 32 and 11 and 9 yesterday. Clay had 12. I don't know why he put that up there, but shout out to the spurs for getting dubbed yesterday.
DJ Will
Y'all childish for that for sure.
Matt
Super chat. Who will win? Hawks that went on the big win streak or the Hawks with Joe, Josh and Jamal?
DJ Will
The that played on the team? Gotta answer that.
Leah
I don't know. Depends. I don't know. I'm gonna go with. I was on both teams. I don't mind. Good games.
DJ Will
More exciting though, on Josh and them side, but I don't know about.
Leah
I think we probably beat him because they couldn't guard. They was cool on defense. But you said we like the Hawks. Cause I ain't play that much with Josh and Jamal. So I'm gonna go with the ones I played more.
Matt
Okay. You think is the coaching the difference between those two matchups as well?
Leah
Yeah, they gonna ISO the whole game. We gonna double team.
DJ Will
Yeah. Y'all's probably a better team for sure.
Leah
Yeah, most definitely. They had better players, though. I ain't gonna hold you.
DJ Will
Yeah, definitely.
Leah
Yeah.
Matt
All right. Rex boy asked, with Luke in la, do you think Braun will stay in the league to play with Bryce?
Leah
Now bars going to the league.
Matt
I don't. I don't think that he's worried about that I think he just happened to have. Luca.
DJ Will
Yeah.
Matt
Shout out to your real Yesterday, the podcast you did, they said Bryce was better than Bronnie. He was not having it.
DJ Will
Yeah, that was my young guns, man. But yeah, man, Bryce, you just gotta see what he develop into, man. Hopefully get us some burn in Arizona. But yeah, I don't think Brian care about that. If Bryce is a one and done, I'm gonna know something.
Matt
If Bryce is the one to do it and he's a Laker, LeBron is the goat. And there's no more conversations to be had about it.
DJ Will
But like I said, LeBron deserves everything. He carried the league for 20 plus years. So whatever LeBron want to do, make it happen, bro.
Matt
It run it up.
DJ Will
Nepotism at his finest.
Matt
For sure. Don Ghosting ass. Would you call the Celtics? Is this generation 10? Antonio Spurs? No.
Leah
I don't know.
DJ Will
They can start it. They get started. Jason Tatum, low key, having one of them careers.
Leah

DJ Will
They mad.
Matt
Yeah, bro.
Leah
Yeah, they be chilling. Yeah, you wanna get the job done.
Matt

DJ Will
None of them niggas is with Tim Duncan though. I ain't even saying that. I'm just to make that clear. I know how y'all stretch it. I'm just saying they to me, it's the same type of franchise so far. It's like same kind of vibe.
Matt
Yeah, for sure.

And just in time for tax season. On this week's episode, we're chatting with CPA Lisa Green Lewis about how small businesses can tackle their taxes using TurboTax Business.
Matt
A Forbes study mentioned that a whopping 93% of small businesses overpay their taxes. And 17% of Gen Zers believe that you could write off any expense as a business expense. So can't blame them. It's really important to do your taxes right.
Ryan Seacrest
Listen to Grown up stuff on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your favorite podcasts.
Matt
All right, man. Couple games. Nice to see how y'all feel about em. First things first, we got Lakers and Bucks.
DJ Will
Ooh, I'm gonna take. I'm gonna take the Lakers.
Matt
No LeBron. You think Luke can hold it down?
Leah
Yeah, I got the Bucs.
Matt
Okay. Bucs coming off a loss, they gotta hold it down for sure. It's a tight spot in the east to get to as well. If they win this game, what the Bucs gotta do, is it the bench? I know we've been seeing a lot of national covers talking about that bench. Gotta give them a little bit more. Is that the key to successful in Milwaukee right?
Leah
Now I don't know nobody on they bench.
Matt
Damn.
Leah
That's just being real.
DJ Will
They just need cools, man, to get comfortable.
Matt
It's a lot to ask. Cause especially with BP being gone.
Leah
Yeah, they missing bp. Kpj. He cool.
DJ Will
Oh, never mind. Yeah, yeah.
Leah
Once he get back from taking that raw spark.
DJ Will
Oh, Rosemary give you that boost? I need two of them things.
Matt
That's all it took to get to the league.
DJ Will
36. Need to be Tom's, too. That's 72 hour, that weekend trip.
Matt
I don't know if you can prescribe that one. Rose Sparks. They're not doing that.
Leah
Shout out to Roof Sparks.
DJ Will
Boy, let's get everything hard.
Leah
Shout out to Wolf spots.
DJ Will
Shannon Sharp is a fool, man.
Matt
Michelle the real Rose Sparks. Oh. Oh, man. Shout out to Rose Sparks. Great.
DJ Will
Shannon got us that deal, man. That's how you sacrifice for the team right there, man. Rose Sparks came as soon as that video dropped. So shout out to Shannon and Michelle for that cameo.
Matt
Shout out to Michelle. Oh, man. All right, Kings of Warriors. Who y'all got?
DJ Will
Warriors.
Leah
Yeah, Warriors.
Matt
Kaminga's supposed to be back tonight, man. I'm excited to see how he integrates with the team, because like we said, if he comes off the bench and can contribute like we know he can, that makes him that much deadlier, man. Especially if he under Jimmy Tulich, man, he might fucking around and really get to it. That might really change some stuff for them. Because in the playoffs, I wouldn't want to see that. They already got the championship pedigree. And you got young talent. That's tough for sure. You going warriors night?
DJ Will
Yeah, I got Warriors.
Matt
Warriors, too. All right.
DJ Will
Cool.
Matt
Verified Buckets be here. Who was getting to it yesterday, man.
DJ Will
I'm gonna give it to Trey. 35, 12 and 7. That boy special.
Matt
Most definitely hooped out. I'm gonna go with SGA yesterday. 34 piece yesterday. Went crazy. Dominated that second half. Shout out to SGA. MVP.
Leah
I'm gonna go with De'Aaron Fox near triple double. Yes, sir, Mr. By a rebound. I know we don't talk about the Spurs a lot since Wimby been out.
Matt
But he hooping 32, 11, 9. He definitely did his thing yesterday. Miles bridges hooping yesterday. 31, 11, 5. Four blocks as well. That's crazy. Some more games before we get out of here and see how y'all feel about the Wizards at Pistons.
DJ Will
Pistons.
Matt
Okay.
Leah
Pistons.
Matt
Magic at Pelicans.
DJ Will
Pills award.
Matt
Pelicans.
Leah
Yeah, I take the pills.
Matt
Nets at Bulls, man.
Leah
Don't care.
DJ Will
I'm Gonna take the net on the road.
Leah
Don't care.
Matt
All right, super chat. Momo Mike23 asks, I feel like if Charlotte got the first pick, B. Miller, Lamelo and Flag is a crazy encore to build around. Why couldn't the pairing work? They all play multiple positions.
Leah
I just told you why it don't work.
Matt
It's gotta be Cooper Flag team.
Leah
Yes, bro.
Matt
B Mill can be there, but yeah.
DJ Will
He did just break it down.
Leah
I just told you.
Matt
Tap in.
Leah
It don't make sense to have Cooper Flag behind Lamelo. Just business wise. Yeah, we know what Lamelo mean to the culture, to the kids. But if I'm a franchise, I am putting this man pause. I'm putting Cooper Flag on the front of everything.
DJ Will
Yeah, it'll change the identity for sure.
Leah
What?
Matt
And for how they feel about him, I don't think they want any of Lamelo to rub off on Cooper Flag. They don't want that influence.
DJ Will
Cooper Flag started dressing like V Rad. They gonna be pissed.
Matt
Yeah, but we see Cooper Flag pull to the game and do rag. They're going to trade Lamelo so fucking fast.
DJ Will
That's crazy. He really got that effect though.
Matt
Come on, bro. He lit. Rex boy asks, do signature shoe players feel any kind of way when dudes on other teams rock their shoe? You have to get clearance. I've always wondered this.
Leah
I don't know.
Matt
No, you can wear whatever shoe you want to.
Leah
That ain't true though. Some dudes you do gotta ask to wear that shoe. Well, you can't just wear mics. I mean, you can, but if he say something, you gotta take them off.
DJ Will
Damn.
Matt
Damn. I know. If you're on contract with brands, I know you gotta wear certain stuff. I know they have guidelines, but if you're a free agent, you just can't wear whatever. That's crazy.
Leah
I mean, you can. Technically you can. You can wear whatever. I'll take that back.
Matt
I know, like, when he was on Adidas, they had certain stuff they wanted you to wear.
Leah
When I was with. Yeah, when I was with Nike, you couldn't wear certain stuff.
Matt
Damn.
Leah
Like some people couldn't. You couldn't wear Jordans.
DJ Will
Damn. So who been? Could you wear pennies?
Leah
Yeah, it was Nike. Is the question asking, like, if you.
DJ Will
About to play LeBron, can you wear LeBron's without his permission?
Leah
Yeah, they hype. Like so okay. I'll be hyped. Like, yeah. He a fan.
Matt
LeBron talked about it. He did a pod some while back. He was like. He's like, I like people who wear my shoes. But if I don't really watch you and I see you just went got my shoes from Foot Locker. You wearing them against me tonight, I'm gonna bust your ass. So.
DJ Will
All right.
Leah
See, I'll be hyped. If I had a shoe and somebody was wearing my shoe, I'd be hyped.
DJ Will
That's some hoe ass to say nah.
Leah
Like, I heard PG and them say like it was dope seeing people wear their shoes. I see Dame say it. I see Jason Tatum say people got their shoes on. Like, yeah, that's hard.
Matt
Also, we didn't mention this, but did y'all see the Converse put the SGA signal on top of the TD Garden yesterday after the win like the Batman. Because the Converse. Yeah.
DJ Will
Wow. Disrespectful.
Matt
That's fire. So. All right, get. Well, someone be here who needs some encouragement.

Matt

Hosts: DJ Will, Matt, and Leah
Guest: Jeff Teague
In Episode 520 of Club Shay Shay, hosts DJ Will, Matt, and Leah dive deep into recent NBA showdowns, offering insightful reactions and analyses. The episode centers around the Oklahoma City Thunder's surprising victory over the Boston Celtics and the Minnesota Wolves' dominant performance against the Denver Nuggets. Additionally, Jeff Teague joins the conversation to share his perspectives on these games and the broader NBA landscape.
The Thunder emerged victorious with a score of 118-112 against the Celtics, a result that has left fans and analysts buzzing. The trio discusses the standout performances and pivotal moments that led to the Thunder's win.
Shai Gilgeous-Alexander's Dominance:
Matt highlights, "SGA went crazy yesterday, 34 and 7" ([02:55]). His aggressive playstyle and scoring prowess were instrumental in securing the win.
Celtics' Three-Point Struggles:
Leah criticizes the Celtics' strategy, stating, "They shot 60 something threes last night" ([04:45]). The overreliance on three-point attempts, despite a low success rate, was identified as a key weakness.
Al Horford's Effort:
Despite a negative team plus-minus, DJ Will acknowledges Al Horford's effort: "He was playing well" ([06:10]). Horford's ability to keep the game close was noted, though it wasn't enough to sway the final outcome.
The Minnesota Wolves delivered a commanding performance, defeating the Denver Nuggets 115-95. The hosts break down the factors contributing to this blowout.
Russell Westbrook's Limited Impact:
Leah observes, "When he's not making his three, it don't really matter" ([07:00]). Westbrook's reduced shooting efficiency and decreased shot attempts were detrimental to the Nuggets' performance.
Team Defense:
DJ Will praises the Wolves' defensive strategy, especially their pressure on the paint and free throw opportunities. "They put pressure on you, they get to the free throw line" ([04:19]).
The hosts discuss the implications of these games on the teams' playoff prospects.
Thunder as Contenders:
Leah and DJ Will express confidence in the Thunder's potential, emphasizing their strategic rotations and defensive prowess. "Thunder getting that win without J Dub... That's an impressive win" ([03:57]).
Celtics' Uncertainty:
Despite being a traditionally strong team, the Celtics' recent loss raises questions about their consistency. Matt remarks, "Boston is the favorite because we've seen what they did last year and they returned everybody and we think they're playing at a high level" ([27:07]).
Individual player performances were a focal point, with the hosts highlighting emerging talents and veteran contributions.
SGA's Consistency:
Matt notes, "SGA becomes a seven-player with 60 straight games of 20 points or more" ([09:56]), underscoring his reliability and importance to the Thunder.
Jalen Green's Development:
Leah discusses the Rockets' star, "His next step is just knowing he's the guy and embracing that" ([13:52]). Green's maturation is seen as crucial for the Rockets' success.
James Harden's Impact:
Despite team changes, DJ Will emphasizes Harden's lasting influence: "What Shay doing with that young core, I think people forget too" ([17:58]).
The episode also delves into coaching decisions and their effects on team performance.
Celtics' Coaching Decisions:
Leah and Matt critique the Celtics' strategies, especially their reliance on perimeter shooting over exploiting interior strengths. "They didn't touch the paint. Really?" ([04:52]).
Wolves' Defensive Tactics:
The Wolves' ability to disrupt opponents' offensive flows is lauded. DJ Will mentions, "They get to the paint. And that's the only thing the Celtics didn't do last night" ([04:52]).
Wrapping up the episode, the hosts reflect on the evolving NBA landscape and what to expect as the playoffs approach.
Playoff Readiness:
Leah asserts, "They think it's up in the air. We just watched Boston lose last night" ([27:36]), indicating the unpredictability heading into the postseason.
Emerging Contenders:
The Thunder and Wolves are highlighted as teams to watch, with potential to disrupt traditional powerhouses based on recent performances.
