Main Topics & Discussion Breakdown

NCAA Tournament Recap & Arizona vs. Arkansas Preview

[03:18–06:25]

• The crew reviews Arizona’s win over Utah State, emphasizing their rebounding dominance (Win: 78-66, +27 rebounding margin).
• Key players: Jaden Bradley and Braden buries (18 and 16 pts).
• Arkansas is next up for Arizona; Uncle stakes Arkansas's claim with bravado.

Notable exchange:

• Uncle: “It’s cuffing season, man! That youngster there [Acuff], man, he ain’t letting us lose...we got some bigs for they bigs. We long, athletic.” (04:12)

• The group debates who holds the defensive edge and which team can dominate the glass or transition.

More Tournament Highlights

[06:50–14:59]

• Quick recaps of Purdue’s win, Alabama’s blowout of Texas Tech, and other Sweet 16 notes.
• Dissection of Purdue’s efficiency and why disciplined teams prevail in the tournament.
• Uncle: “Purdue...just too disciplined, Uncle Ocho, you know what I'm saying? They ain’t never gonna do nothing that's gonna beat themselves.” (07:24)
• Alabama’s record 3-point shooting (19 of 42) gets a shout-out.

Bleacher Report's "Top 15 Purest Scorers in NBA History" Debate

[16:20–30:37]

• The crew reacts in disbelief and ridicule at Bleacher Report’s list.
• List Excerpt: Steph Curry #1, KD #2, MJ #3, Embiid #4, LeBron, Doncic, Gervin, Jokic, Kobe (not top 5), Giannis, Kyrie, O'Neal, Mitchell, etc.
• Ocho: “Kobe got to be somewhere, you know? Got to be in the top five, Joe.” (17:30)
• Uncle and Ocho wonder how Carmelo Anthony (“mellow”), James Harden, and Allen Iverson are snubbed entirely.
• Uncle: “He [Melo] wasn’t nothing but a pure score…he top 10 in the NBA history in scoring.” (17:37)
• The group agrees these lists are mostly engagement bait for social media impressions.
• They expand to discuss a football “best safeties” list, similarly click-baity.

Memorable Quotes:

• Joe: “James Harden not to be up there? Man, stop.” (19:54)

• “If you ain’t got Jordan and you ain’t got James Harden…[he’s] about to hit 30,000 points.” (19:40)

• Ocho: “They create these lists for engagement because they get paid for the impressions…” (20:03)

• Lively debate over how to define a “pure scorer.” Examples from every NBA era—Wilt, Elgin Baylor, Jerry West, Iverson, Tracy McGrady, D-Wade—are cited as worthy inclusions.

• Reflect on Michael Jordan’s rookie scoring average (28 PPG) and overall dominance:

  • Uncle: “Jordan came in as a rookie dropping 28…won seven straight scoring titles; sat it down for a year and a half and come back and get three more.” (26:17)

Tournament Bracket Check & Friendly Trash Talk

[36:24–39:08]

[39:27–40:46]

• Ocho tells a story about being kicked out of church for getting a bit too enthusiastic as the preacher got fired up:

Conversations on Nightlife: Freaknik, Black College Beach Week, and Strip Club Legends

[41:01–51:36]

• Deep nostalgia about wild days in Atlanta and Miami—Freaknik, Miami Memorial Day weekends, and Black College Beach Week.

• Joe: “A parking lot just…chilling, people out there, dancing. People get on top of the car. I’m talking about everything.” (47:03)

• The group reminisces about old cars, cash, and the “artistry” of legendary dancers:

  • Ocho: “She’s not a stripper. She does adult ballet. So everything in your pocket is coming out.” (65:35, on the infamous Tip Drill)

• Inside jokes about the Claremont Lounge in Atlanta (“some of them in there by about 75 years old, taking it all off”). (66:22)

Summary Takeaways

• The panel gives a passionate, sometimes comedic preview of Arizona vs Arkansas, highlighting NCAA basketball’s best—and most contentious—Sweet 16 matchups.
• There’s wide agreement that Bleacher Report’s “Top 15 Purest Scorers” is intentionally flawed—bait for online engagement and debate, missing historically great scorers like Harden, Melo, and Iverson. Their ideal list is far more old school and stats-driven.
• The pod is as much about sports as about personality. The storytellers draw on decades of nightlife, friendships, and change; it’s as much about memory as hot takes.
• Ultimately, their tone is playful, candid, and authentic—translating the energy of a friends’ night out onto headphones everywhere.

Right.

[Uncle]

57 from the field. 53 from the field, 57 from the three here. You ain't beating nobody, no teams.

[Joe]

95 from the free throw line.

[Uncle]

Hey, listen, you ain't winning that game, brother. You let somebody shoot them percentages on you, it's a rap.

[Ocho]

Nope.

[Joe]

I mean they would have shot better than that if Braden smith hadn't shot three for 12. Cause you got Kaufman ran, he's eight or 16. Clough was three or four. Do you got four or five, six or seven? I mean you got one guy was 02, Omar Mayer. But if Braden Smith don't shoot three or 12, hell they might shoot 60,

[Uncle]

65% from the yeah, yeah, this yeah, I know.

[Joe]

And he was.04 from the three from the three, so he killed him.

[Uncle]

It's just a bad time to have a bad defensive game in the NCAA tournament because you can't get this back, bro. It's a rap. Like you let a team shoot like this. You let them be comfortable. You let them run they sets and get what they want, get to their spots. You can't beat no team like that, bro.

[Joe]

Damn the game that we flexed out of the Alabama Crimson Tide beat the Texas Tech Red Raiders by the score of 90 to 65. Alabama 16 for the fourth consecutive time. Alabama went 19 of 42 from deep, the third most makes in any tournament game since 1987 when the three point line was introduced. Latrell White, right sale, led the team with 24 points while three other players scored in double figure. Lebaron Filon Jr had nine points.

[Joe]

12 assists. The second most assist by Alabama player in a tournament since 1984. Alabama's sweet 16 opponent, the number one seed, Michigan Wolverine.

[Ocho]

Well, M hey, Michigan got some trees down there too.

[Joe]

Boy, they do.

[Uncle]

God, it's f to start getting thick now. It's going to start getting thick now. We f to get some real, real good games now. Alabama been tough. Texas Tech ankin oo. They lost their center who was a leading scorer and leading rebounder, he tore his ACL kind of late in the season, so it was gonna be hard for them to, you know, stay afloat and continue to keep advancing. They do got a great guard. And look, Christian Anderson, he can play. He didn't have such a great game tonight, but for the most part, he been holding it down throughout the season. But they just ran into a gritty. A gritty Alabama team, bro.

[Joe]

Who.

[Uncle]

Who is out of player. I don't think he. They leading score, but I think he's won. I think he averaged 20 a game. It's a little guard, you know, he got into a little trouble.

[Joe]

Oh, yeah, yeah. Well, they got the one that got arrested. Had that scanion on him. Had, like two and a half pounds.

[Uncle]

Had that skunk.

[Joe]

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. He didn't have that. He have a dish.

[Ocho]

Oh, okay, okay, okay. Yeah, okay, okay.

[Uncle]

Yeah, they. So he.

[Ocho]

He.

[Uncle]

They got him out of there. He couldn't play. He probably done.

[Joe]

Yeah, He might be playing with a team with stripes on, boy. I don't know what the Bleacher Report. Bleacher report. Top 15 purest scores in NBA history. Steph Curry was 1. Kevin Durant was 2. Michael Jordan was 3. Joel Embiid is 4. LeBron, Shea, Gervin, Doncic, Jokic, Kobe, Giannis, Kyrie, O', Neill, Mitchell. Might be the worst list somebody's ever, ever put.

[Ocho]

Okay, okay, okay. I'm gonna say, hey, Joe, I. I didn't play in the nb. I didn't play in the NBA. Listen, I'm not a huge, you know, NBA watcher. Of course I know the game. I understand the game a little bit, but the list is garbage because he didn't name. He didn't write it off. About seven, six, seven, eight names. And Kobe name wasn't mentioned in that goddamn top five. So just take that list, ball it up and throw it away. I'm just like, now, Steph Curry. Steph Curry.

[Joe]

Rightfully so.

[Ocho]

Rightfully so. He's number one. Who won't argue that. You can't argue that. Now, outside of that, Kobe got to be somewhere, you know? Got to be in the top five, Joe. I know.

[Uncle]

No, no, no, no. You ain't tripping, O. I don't know who be doing, you know, these analytics or whatever it is they doing, who making these predictions, but you can't have mellow if you ain't got mellow in there. That man wasn't nothing but a pure score. You know what I'm saying? He probably. He top hell, he top 10. I think he top 10 in the NBA history in scoring. So like. Oh, man. Come on, bro. What are they coming up? What are they coming up? What they coming up with? This. Where you get these? Where you get this from?

[Ocho]

You know what? I think they know. I think they do. I know. I think they do, Joe. Especially on Twitter, when they create these, they create these. I think they create them for engagement, to get people talking, to get people going. Because I think you get paid for your impressions or something like that. I think, if I'm not mistaken, you

[Uncle]

know, is that what it is?

[Joe]

I don't know.

[Ocho]

Yeah, I think so. I think so. Because sometimes people, you know, you know, you get you a check from. From. From Twitter.

[Uncle]

Yeah, okay.

[Ocho]

No, for you, for you, for your engagement and your impressions or something like that. I'm not sure how it worked. I think I need to sign up for that because I got. Show made me.

[Uncle]

Look, I thought you would have had it as much as you.

[Ocho]

Nah, nah, I got. I got. I gotta sign up for it. I don't like filling all that. All that stuff out, Joe.

[Uncle]

Too much work.

[Ocho]

Yeah, too much work. Too. Too much work. I mean, you know, it could be nice little pocket change, you know, look, gas money, little McDonald's money.

[Uncle]

So you're on all social platforms?

[Ocho]

Oh, yeah, Instagrams. I got Twitter and I got.

[Joe]

How you gotta listen. You ain't got James Harden on it.

[Uncle]

Yeah.

[Ocho]

Oh, I. I won't say that you ain't. Did you say D. Wade, Joe? You said D. Wade.

[Joe]

Nah. How. Look, it's doing what. It's doing what it was supposed to do, which is. Which is get us. Get people talking about it because they know if you. If you ain't got Jordan and you ain't got. You ain't got James Harden. James Harden averaged 36 average, 34. James Harden just. James Harden is about to hit 30,000 points. Pure scores. Yeah, James Harden's got to be there. There was a time there was like a three, there was like a five year period. People were actually questioning, is James Harden the better scorer than Michael Jordan? Is James Harden the better scorer than Kobe? And you ain't even got the man on the list.

[Ocho]

Yeah, hey, you heard what I told Joe.

[Joe]

I get it, I get it, I get it. But for James Harden not to be up there. Man, stop.

[Ocho]

You heard what I told Unc, Joe. I mean, what I told Joe Unc. I say they create these lists like this, and there's another one. We probably not gonna talk about it. There's a. There's a football list, I'm not sure if you saw it today that talked about the best safeties they ever played this game.

[Joe]

Did you see that one got up there?

[Ocho]

They got Ed Reed first. They got Ronnie Lott second.

[Joe]

Okay, Troy third.

[Ocho]

Troy was number eight. Huh? Troy was number eight. Hey, hey, Troy was. Troy was number eight. They got Steve at. Steve Atwater, and they got your boy Steven in there about real high. But I've looked at the list. I'm like, come on now. Brian Dawkins was up there, too. I'm like, come on, what we doing? And I think they create these lists for engagement because they get paid for the impressions on how many people.

[Joe]

It's working, cuz. That's a bull job.

[Ocho]

Oh, yeah, it's working big time.

[Joe]

Hold on. You ain't got Jerry west, you ain't got Elgin Baylor, you ain't got Wilt Chamberlain. So you ain't got. So I'm just trying to figure out. So. So what. What was the criteria that you use to determine scores?

[Uncle]

They just want to put it out, man. They want us to talk about it.

[Joe]

Ain't no way in.

[Uncle]

Because ain't no way.

[Joe]

You got a list with scores and James Harden ain't a top five score.

[Ocho]

Right?

[Uncle]

Absolutely right.

[Joe]

Come on, man. Come on, man. You average in the mid-30s. You got to be way up there. Cause ain't a whole lot of. Look, especially in the modern basketball now, you know, way, way back then when they had like 812 teams.

[Uncle]

Yeah.

[Joe]

One thing. But once you got one anytime, you average at least 35 since the merger. And I think the merger. 7,000, 677. Come on now.

[Ocho]

Yeah.

[Uncle]

It's ridiculous.

[Joe]

Oh, Lord have mercy. Oh, my goodness.

[Uncle]

That's what I'm saying. I'm saying. Hey. I'm saying mellow. Top 10 scorer in NBA history.

[Joe]

Yeah, mellow. Wasn't nothing by the bucket.

[Ocho]

Yeah. Is it?

[Joe]

Tracy McGrady was a score.

[Uncle]

Oh, they ain't have him on there.

[Joe]

Hell, no.

[Uncle]

They had 62 points in the game,

[Ocho]

Joe. What's the most you scored in the game, Joe?

[Uncle]

I think like 44. Ocho. I wasn't. I ain't. I. I wasn't putting up. No, no. 50, 60. I was just. I was just consistent. You know, I had a. I had a year wide average about 25, 26. I was just consistent. You know what I mean? Like, I was gonna give you what I was gonna give you.

[Ocho]

Yes, sir. Hey, I. I hope you find that consistency.

[Joe]

That's no Score, you say you what?

[Ocho]

Man, I hope you had that consistency when I see you, man.

[Uncle]

Wait a minute. Why that man always want me to act out of character. I'm trying to be cool with the man. You know what I'm saying?

[Ocho]

Hey, Joe. Hey, Joe. I don't want to be. I don't want to be cool no more.

[Joe]

I wanna.

[Ocho]

I wanna play ball.

[Uncle]

Okay, we got the fade pending, you know what I'm saying? Because.

[Ocho]

Oh, it's not pending it. And it went through.

[Uncle]

It went through. It went through.

[Ocho]

Oh, yeah, it's going down, Joe. Hey. Hey, Unki. Oh, no. Hey, that transaction, it's going through.

[Joe]

As far as scoring, we ain't gonna put. Alan, I.

[Ocho]

That's. That's a good one. That's a good one.

[Joe]

Come on. I'm getting mad. Like my grandma used to say, the more, the better I talked, the more

[Uncle]

I talked that man average.

[Joe]

Cause it's a bull job. Mellow. No. Mellow, no.

[CVS Advertiser]

Hard.

[Joe]

No.

[Uncle]

AI, that man got a career average about 28.

[Joe]

Yeah. Come on, man.

[Ocho]

Hey, hey, hey. Doesn't it. Doesn't it get difficult too when you talk about some of the better scorers of all time when there's so many of them? How do you know who to put in your top 10?

[Joe]

Luca averaging 28 points a game right now. Luca. If Luca would have the third highest scoring average in NBA history behind Jordan and Will, and you got him down at 8. The mere fact that you don't got hard, you don't have Iverson. You don't even have them on the list along with Tracy McGregor.

[Uncle]

Yeah, because Iverson was. Hey, boy, listen. Them early 2000s, them late 90s.

[Ocho]

Yeah.

[Uncle]

I mean, running the league,

[Joe]

Man. Come on now. Let me see the purest scores. Jordan, Kobe, Harden, Iverson. I'm just. They just buckets.

[Ocho]

D. Wade. No.

[Uncle]

Yeah. D. Wade was a buck. He hold up. He averaged.

[Joe]

He.

[Uncle]

He led the league in scoring one year. Scoring one year.

[Joe]

But you look at KD, Jordan, Harden, you talking about guys in the consistent

[Uncle]

high 20s, 30s, you knew what they were doing.

[Joe]

I mean, Jordan came in as a rookie dropping 28. You ain't gonna see that ish no more.

[Uncle]

You don't think so?

[Joe]

Not no rookie coming to drop 28 again. Jordan average 28 as a rookie.

[Ocho]

You don't think, hey, Joe, they gotta have. Hey, Joe, they gotta have that green light to be able to shoot at.

[Uncle]

I think. I think at some point. At some point. I don't know if it's gonna be this year, but I think at some point, we gonna get somebody who gonna come along as a rookie, and I'm talking about he gonna be out there handing them out. You hear me? He gonna be handing them out.

[Joe]

Think about it. Kevin durant, every little bit. 20. Jordan LeBron average, mellow average.

[Uncle]

20. I think 21.

[Joe]

Yeah. This man averaged 28 a game, rookie.

[Ocho]

Hey,

[Joe]

I think he lost the scoring title one year. He might have lost the scoring title. He might have lost it to bird dog Bernard King. I think at 30 something points, your

[Uncle]

mindset gotta be different, bro.

[Joe]

Yeah, man. Man, everybody know Jordan was a walking bucket. The man averaged 37. Average 35. 32. 33. The man won seven straight scoring titles. Sit it down for a year and a half and come back and get three more m.

[Uncle]

Ridiculous.

[Ocho]

Oh, Mike. Boy. You see Mike won again.

[Joe]

You seen that? He did.

[Uncle]

Yeah.

[Joe]

Really?

[Ocho]

He won another. Yeah, he won another race out of the last six. Is he done one four. This is fourth. One one four. Yeah.

[Joe]

Hey. Hey. They probably all the other team owner say since they got that night, everybody got a charter now. He said, man, y' all should have sued up early if you gonna take somebody with deep pockets that wasn't afraid, man. You're not going to push. Look, I don't really know how Mike operate, but he ain't going to let y' all walk. You not f. To walk over, man.

[Uncle]

To be able to. To. To. To contest nascar, though, Uncle. Oo, that's big time. Not only that, after you won, you've been kicking they butt.

[Ocho]

Oh, yeah, man.

[Uncle]

Yeah. We ain't gonna never get MJ back in basketball the way he. The way he got them cars running around that track. Oh, yeah.

[Joe]

And he really don't show up. He don't. The last thing I seen might go more to NC Carolina games than he go to the NBA games. The last thing I saw Mike show up for the 75th anniversary.

[Uncle]

Yeah.

[Joe]

You seen him?

[Uncle]

No, I think. I think he. I think he do be having stuff, but I think it'd be so private. Invite only. Like he ain't.

[Joe]

Yeah. Yes. Because he normally put on. He normally put on something. Oh, yeah, man.

[Uncle]

We used to do that. He used to do that every year. Hey, that was the best part. Okay, Ocho. Everybody trying to get it now.

[Joe]

You went to that one when he had in LA back in 20. What year was that? 2019. 2018. 2019.

[Uncle]

Twin.

[Joe]

It was in Bel Air. You had to park. You catch a bus.

[Uncle]

I don't.

[Joe]

And they shut.

[Uncle]

I don't know if I was at No, I don't think I.

[Joe]

You went.

[Uncle]

You went up like that.

[Joe]

Like that, Like.

[Ocho]

Yeah, Jo. Yeah, Joe. That thing was nice, Joe.

[Joe]

And he. You know, he was. He was. He was in the back. He off in the cut here. He ain't. He ain't visible. He's his thing, but he way back off, you know, you got to go dump it around and down to find it. But nah, man, there was a guy, and I don't know if you guys remember, there was a guy named Andrew. Yeah, I do. Played with the Philadelphia 76ers. They call him the Boston Strangler. A straight bucket get Strangler. That's what they call him. Because, hey, he get. He get Celtics hell. So that's what they did. They dubbed the Boston Strangler World Be free. Yeah, he changed his name to World. His name was Lloyd. He changed the name to World because he could shoot anywhere, right? I can make it anywhere in the world, man. I just. Like I said, man, ain't nobody. Hey, I. I don't think anybody that I. Because I saw a little bit of this, and I looked. And so, you know, I go to the comments. I don't think there was, like, one positive comment. I don't think there was, like, one comment and said, man, y' all got. Boy, y' all hit this one out.

[Ocho]

They did. They did it on purse for the engagement. Because if they did it the right way, it wouldn't be nothing to talk about.

[Joe]

But look, I understand. I think the thing sometimes, don't you. You kind of want to get engagements, and the more outlandish or ridiculous something is, the more. Yeah, but damn, you can't make it so egregious.

[Danielle Fishel]

Just.

[Joe]

Just for the sake of argument, just put. If you put. Make sure you got Kobe hired. You got James Harden, you got Iverson, you got a couple of guys on there now. You might want to play with the rankings. Yeah, but at least you got to put them on. Oh, Lord have mercy.

[Uncle]

Whoever doing it probably ain't never even played the sport, bro.

[Joe]

Well, I mean, looking at. They just threw some names out there. Lord have mercy. I was bad. What else we got? All right.
