• Despite blowing double-digit leads in earlier games, the Spurs held firm in Game 3:

• Joe Johnson on building Wemby’s rhythm:

  “He got a couple easy buckets ... now everything kind of opens up. But defensively, bro, they've been great.” (08:06)

3. Stephon Castle’s Growth & Rookie Mistakes

• The group notes Castle’s talent but recognize he’s still inexperienced:

  “If Castle cut down on those boneheaded plays, Joe, he's a phenomenal player, and he's only going to get better...” – Ocho (09:57)

4. Matchup Tactics & Defensive Focus

• Castle’s defensive pressure on Knicks’ scorers like Brunson and Cat highlighted as crucial.
• The Spurs executed switches well, making it harder for Knicks’ stars to find rhythm.
• Ocho on defensive technique:

  “Everybody know... when you close out on the wing, you supposed to close out top foot man, send the man baseline. Stop letting that man come middle and got you in the hucklebuck.” (16:16)

• VIP attendance: Chris Rock, Dave Chappelle, Jay Z, Ben Stiller, Tracy Morgan, Timothée Chalamet, as well as President Trump.

8. Wemby & Castle’s Postgame Comments

• Wemby’s humility and focus:

  “With a big winning game, three less mistakes, more control. It's the little things. The job is absolutely not done. The hardest is still to come.” (39:47) “I guess I'm nowhere near Trae Young level, though.” (60:54)

• Castle on leadership:

  “I might be. Honestly, probably a close, close second [in maturity]. Vic probably be number one. I don’t go to sleep at 9pm, though.” (63:12)

• Trump’s attendance caused additional security, inconveniencing fans and changing fan event plans:

  “You got to go through there like you'd be at TSA. Because he is in the house, and they're going to take every precaution as well as they should… It probably inconvenienced a lot of people...” – Joe (49:33)

10. Big Picture: Global Impact and NBA Legacy

• The hosts discuss Wemby’s never-ending presence on both ends, likening his impact to NFL greats who changed opponents’ gameplans:

  “There have been a very few players that you've had to actually worry about on both ends of the court. Wimby is one of them.” – Joe (55:14)

• Ocho notes:

  “Wemby is larger than life. Literally at 7’ 4”, with guard-like skills... How do you guard that when he has it going? You can’t.” (55:16)

I mean I, I've never seen the Garden like that before in my life and I've seen a lot of big games there. I haven't been, you know, been to a few games, but nothing but that atmosphere was electric. I thought that roof was literally going to leave the building. The spurs beat the Knicks 115 to 111. Victor Wimbanyama 32 points, 8 rebounds, 6 assists, 2 steals, 3 blocks. He joins KD, LeBron and Duncan as the only players with those numbers in a finals game. Stefan Castle, 23 points, 5 rebounds, 5 assists, 8 of 14 from the floor. Only Tony Parker and Magic Johnson had 25 and five at in a game at a younger age. Wemby and Stefan Castle are the first two players 22 years or younger to both have 2220 plus points or more in a finals game. Joe, the spurs had to come out and they come out and this is the third time they've had a double digit lead early only to have the Knicks to wipe it out. But the difference between tonight and the previous nights when they've had those double digit leads, they said nah, we're not going away. We're not going to succumb to the pressure that you've applied to us. And even though the Knicks got out to a what, six seven point lead? Yes Y they raced it and those guys played hard. They got great contribution champagne. I don't know why they didn't give him the ball in the second half the other night. But you see hit some big shots in the second half. Joe, this was an unbelievable go ball game. I'm not going to be surprised if we go back to San Antonio tied 22. But let's talk about tonight's game. Joe, what were the spurs able to do from start to finish that were able to win this ball game and make it a 2:1 series?

[Ocho]

Ocho, close your eyes baby. I'm telling you, I've been with the monks. I've been amongst the monks. Hey listen, you talking about Gotham City. Hell, we were born in the darkness, man. What you mean we?

[Joe]

We?

[Ocho]

Yeah, we live there. What y' all talking about? Oh man, New York gonna be got that that.

[Uncle Joe]

That.

[Ocho]

Man, please.

[Joe]

Hey, you couldn't listen.

[Ocho]

All women did was say, hey, Castle, I need you to come along with this ride for me. Yeah, man, I gotta spin the block. I gotta spin the block a couple times. I need you to roll with me. You hear me? He just needed. He just needed another dog to show up to the party. I think, you know, Wemby knew tonight, bro. He was so demonstrative. Meaning, like, getting closer to the basket. Uncle Ocho, look, it's funny how you get into a good rhythm if your first couple buckets are around the hoop. You know, he got a couple easy buckets, some layups, some dunks. I said, oh, they in trouble catching. Now he catching little lobs. So you get into that little rhythm before he starts taking these threes. Now everything kind of opens up. But defensively, bro, they've been great. They've been great all year. The thing that hunt them, you know, they was up 12 early, lost the league. New York came back, took the lead. But they didn't.

[Joe]

They.

[Ocho]

They never folded, bro. In that second half, New York came out, turned the ball over twice, and. And I thought San Antonio pretty much had the momentum throughout the rest of the game. They cut within that seven point lead at halftime. Hell, they was up three, four points within four or five minutes. Fellas, you know, this. This. This young team, this is why I say, this is why I felt like San Antonio would be able to come into New York and win not only three, not only game three, but game four. They're so talented, bro. They got. They have. I know they young, but they've learned from those mistakes. And down the stretch, yeah, they made a few here and there, but for the most part, bro, they were so in sync. They were so in tune. They knew they had to come in here and get game three, man. Great job.

[Joe]

I think also, Joe, is that. Look at the turnovers.

[Ocho]

There you go. There you go.

[Uncle Joe]

Yeah.

[Joe]

When they don't turn the ball up. Because if you think about it, Joe, they had an 11 point lead. Castle shoves OG on a. On a Hail Mary three. That's three shots. He turns the ball over. They get a bucket. The guy shoves Cat. That's another three. He tries to go. Tries to throw one off the glass, and guess what? They go down. That's another three. Three possessions, 11 point lead.

[Ocho]

Yeah.

[Joe]

Down to two.

[Ocho]

When they are.

[Joe]

When they erase those silly mistakes, I'm like, why y'? All. I say, bro, y' all up. Why are you rushing to take a fourth shot? That's what I didn't understand, Joe, and I'm like, if Castle cut down on those boneheaded plays, Joe, he's a phenomenal player, and he's only going to get better, but he makes some of the plays. And I'm looking at him like, bro, you way too good of a player to ever do something like that.

[Ocho]

You're right. Hey, he's young. Look, he. He. He's in the moment, fellas. And as we. As we want him to slow down. I get it. I get it, bro. He was better here. He.

[Joe]

He.

[Ocho]

I mean, he made. He made a few turnovers tonight, but for the most part, you know, his aggressiveness, bro, the way he plays on offense, hell, he gonna turn it over a time or two. I'm just gonna keep it real. I'm like, you, uncle. I'm like, damn. You know, you get the lead, bro, it's like when they get the lead basketball, like, slow it down. Hold on, hold on. They come down Euro stepping. I'm like, y' all need all that, right?

[Joe]

Right.

[Ocho]

The Knicks, that went on an 8, 0 run. But I think. I think as the series continues to go on, man, they will look at film. They will learn from the mistakes that they made if they could just stay solid, play great defense. Castle is kind of, you know, he real strong out there on the perimeter when he guarding his man.

[Joe]

Oh, yeah, he bought. Hey, he bought in. He bought it.

[Ocho]

No matter who it is. He got Og Brunson. He out there fighting. The man fighting for his life out there. He out there fighting.

[Joe]

Yeah, but still doing a great job on Cat tonight. And I thought that was the difference in the ball game. Cat was not able to get off. Wimby did get off, and I thought that was the difference in the ball game because normally Cat does a better job of keeping it under control, but he normally does a better job of keeping him on the perimeter. You let him get around the rim and they throw it up, you ain't got you. You can't. Cat can't jump that high. Unless.

[Ocho]

Hey, hold on. I'm hearing these whispers. Y' all tell my Cat gonna do what he gonna win what finals?

[Joe]

Yeah, y' all talk about the wi.

[Ocho]

Cut that water down a little bit. Let me cut that off. Let me cut that off. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Cut that off tonight.

[Joe]

Hey, look, look.

[Ocho]

Hey.

[Joe]

Oo oo your nicks.

[Uncle Joe]

Hey, listen, listen. Y'.

[Joe]

All.

[Uncle Joe]

Y' all happy tonight? You hear me? Y' all happy tonight? Listen, we. Obviously, it's the finals, Uncle Joe. You understand? How. How good the spurs are. I understand how good the spurs are. I knew they gonna win a game, maybe two. Listen to me. Let you talk, Joe. Listen. I let you talk. You, you, you.

[Joe]

You know, you with the monks.

[Uncle Joe]

Yeah, the monks and all that. I just. I understand all that, but you have to understand also, you guys got to get your game. You got to get your game. We beat y' all twice at home. You come. You come to the Garden, you win a game. Boom. In just one game. Like y' all kept telling me, right? That's all it is. Now, what we gonna do? And I'm telling you what the Knicks gonna do and Mike Brown gonna do. We're gonna go make the proper adjustments. Cat didn't have a good game tonight. That goddamn Wimby and Cassell came out aggressive from the jump. Yes, they had.

[Joe]

They.

[Uncle Joe]

They had the mistakes. You know, they had their bonehead plays, but the fact that they only had eight turnovers were tremendous. And that's one of why they won this game. Also down the stretch when they needed a shot and had to have it, even though he didn't have a good shooting night. That goddamn Darian Fox, when he got. When he got to that midi. At the. At the top of the. What do you call it?

[Joe]

Top of the.

[Uncle Joe]

Top of the.

[Ocho]

Top of the key.

[Uncle Joe]

Top of the key. Oh, and he. And he hit that shot, man, that was a huge shot.

[Joe]

That.

[Uncle Joe]

That was a huge shot by him. The fact that also Josh Hart had somewhat of a decent game tonight. Yeah, he played well, but they was able to hold Mikhail Bridges.

[Ocho]

You shouldn't be surprised about them. Damn two points he threw up tonight. Don't act like you surprised.

[Uncle Joe]

Hold on, hold on, hold on. Now. Mikhail Bridges have been consistent all series long. Don't do that.

[Joe]

He got in power trouble and got him out of his rhythm, though. Remember, Joe, he picked up like two fouls in the first two minutes of the game.

[Ocho]

I know. I'm watching, so.

[Joe]

You know, now I. I can't look. I done warmed up the cool back down.

[Uncle Joe]

Yes, sir.

[Joe]

And so I think that. I think that got him out of. Out of his rhythm. But I'm looking at these stats, I'm looking at champagne. Four, nine, three or seven from the three. Wimby had 32 points, 11 of 18. Deer and fox, as you mentioned, Ocho, he didn't have the greatest shooting night, but he had the big shot when he had to have it. Vel, 3 or 4, castle 8 or 14. Harper did. Harper was 5 of 18. But you gotta Love his aggressive. The only thing I don't like about Harper, I'm like, bro, you got a one on three and OG is a part of the three. What are you doing?

[Ocho]

Hey. Oh, you right. But listen, hell, he led you in rebounds tonight. That's the killer part. So it's like, it's like, I understand because it's like sometimes I'm like, hold on, we up 10 or the spurs up 10? Why the hell you attacking two, three guys? Hitting them with that Euro, man. Oh, he blocking that.

[Uncle Joe]

Hey, he trolling. He tried.

[Joe]

How many times? He don't block. Go ahead.

[Uncle Joe]

He trying to draw the foul. He was hoping the foul was gonna come, but the fact that it is three people. Oh, I know, I'm get a foul here.

[Ocho]

Yeah, I'll not, man.

[Joe]

Oh, gee, don't block that shot. He don't block that shot. He don't block at least two of those in every game.

[Ocho]

Yeah, at Harvard.

[Joe]

Like, hey, I'm hard headed. Hey, I bet if you ask your Bob, he's like, yeah, he was a hard hit little fella. Cause he come right back, he's sitting down.

[Ocho]

Hey, look, OG OG special, man.

[Joe]

Hey, yeah, but he played his, like,

[Ocho]

every shot he take it down there going in, I'm like, hold on, bro.

[Joe]

Don't it look like it's a damn good. Oh, I'm like, hold on, bro. I'm like, when did, when did you get like.

[Ocho]

That's what I'm saying.

[Joe]

When did you get so automatic?

[Ocho]

He missed the whole series from his damn hamstring ever since he came back.

[Joe]

Yes.

[Ocho]

What they shot up in it. What he shot up in his hamstring. For him to come back like that, man ain't putting under that ham.

[Joe]

They don't, they don't, they don't shoot them hamstrings up like that. They very, very careful with those. He probably had a mile with Ocha or Joe. And what they did is they allowed it to heal. They didn't rush him back. And because Philly was so trash, they're like, oh, yeah. And then they closed it out so soon, he got three or four extra days on top of the rest that he got during the series. So he basically got a week where he didn't have to worry about anything. And when he came back, he had,

[Ocho]

he had to beat. Hey, hey, I, I, I, I'll be honest with y'. All. I don't like when Wimy guarding him on the perimeter. He, he, it's like he got too many options. Obviously he can make the three. But hell, he done went by Wimby a couple times now and banged that thing on him. So I, I, I don't like Wimby Garden. Everybody know, man, when you close out on the wing, you supposed to close out top foot man, send the man baseline. Stop letting that man come middle and got you in the hucklebuck.

[Joe]

Now.

[Ocho]

You don't know what he gonna do.

[Joe]

No, he got us in the hucklebuck. Yeah, you better see what some help is. Ain't no help in the middle. Damn. See this ass baseline.

[Ocho]

Yeah.

[Uncle Joe]

Listen, I, I know y' all happy you're feeling good tonight. Hey, Joe, I like your energy. Listen, listen, hey, the last two games, y' all didn't have this kind of energy. But I see y' all got a little pep in your step tonight. He. Listen, congratulations to the Spurs. Congratulations to both of you. But let me tell you something. The NBA had bills to pay.

[Joe]

Was.

[Uncle Joe]

That's

[Ocho]

Yeah, I want more basketball.

[Joe]

Hey, hey, hey, Joe. Oo, I wore this shirt for you.

[Ocho]

I like that one.

[Joe]

I like that.

[Uncle Joe]

It's all good. Hey, but let me tell you something. I'm telling you, Mike Brown, they gonna watch the film. They gonna, they're gonna go back, make the necessary adjustments that we need to make. Well, you know, the next game.

[Joe]

Yeah, that one was in the car. What was that one? Prospect place.

[Uncle Joe]

Let me tell you something. Hey, Alan, for Joe, they let them boys have that game. You hear me?

[Joe]

Well, I sure. Let us have one more.

[Uncle Joe]

[Uncle Joe]

No, that ain't.

[Ocho]

[Joe]

Boom.

[Ocho]

They learned from their mistakes. All they gotta do is take care of the ball, bro. Get good shots. You can't have no more than eight to 10 turnovers. They take care of that ball. They're gonna be a tough team to beat, bro.

[Joe]

Hey.

[Ocho]

[Joe]

God damn.

[Uncle Joe]

Hey, Joe, you see what I mean?

[Ocho]

I see.

[Joe]

There you go. What Joe do is Joe leave to get you going and then talk about. Hey, oh, hey. Oh, you see him? Oh, you see him?

[Ocho]

Oh, I'm rocking with you. But you know. You know, you oo get a little carried away sometime, man. You know, y' all can't help y'.

[Joe]

Allself. Oho do oo do. But you were talking about yesterday, Ocho, and I was talking about food, and then, Joe, you jumped the grocery.

[Ocho]

Come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, man. Come on. Y' all got to chill. Y' all gotta check,

[Joe]

man. Look here. Hey, Joe, in the fourth quarter, I tweeted the spurs Were independently, like eight minutes at eight and a half. Eight minutes and five seconds to go. Man, I ain't shooting no jumpers.

[Ocho]

I'm going, hello, to the right. Hey, every time you touch me, I'm

[Joe]

going to the right.

[Ocho]

Every time you touch me, I'm going to the line. I'm going to the line.

[Joe]

In the free throws in the second half, The spurs shot 24, the Knicks shot eight. Look, they got athletic guys. If you think about it, all the guys can go off the bounce is. Look at.

[Ocho]

Can.

[Joe]

Can go to. I mean, you look at Keldon Johnson, he really looking to go. He like a bull, man. Man, Vassell can get to the rack. We already know Deer and Fox and Cav can get to the rack. Wimby. But like you said, the thing that I love most about Wimby, his, like, first three shots where two of them was dunked and one of them was with a layup. Yeah. Now I've seen the ball go in. Now I can start moving further and further back.

[Ocho]

Yeah.

[Joe]

Because normally what you do, you say lay up. Lay up. Okay, a couple little five footers and we move further and further back. Now he done saw the ball go in. Oh, he liked to have a fourth one, man, they say killed him. Man, these dudes be out there flopping their ass like that. Man, they pushed that head down.

[Ocho]

He ain't pushing that hard. But Kelton got slow down a little bit, too. Yeah. Hey, look, out of the eight damn turnovers that they had as a team, hell, he had two or three of them. You know what I mean? Like, yes. Come on, bro. Yes. Hey, but this is when they was up by double figures. I'm like, why are you rushing these damn shots? Like, I just thought trying to go.

[Joe]

Trying to go one on them.

[Ocho]

They can't help it, man. They get so seduced by the pace of the game, and it's just like, pick up to them. They ain't even looking at the damn school. That's what I don't realize. They ain't looking at the school. Man, them boys is out there hooping.

[Joe]

The one, you know who did look at the skull, Wimby. Cause they had a couple of bad shots. Women like, oh, slow it down. Slow that down.

[Ocho]

Women say, hell, I'm tired. Yeah.

[Uncle Joe]

Let me tell you.

[Joe]

But you know what they should do is that I noticed that Mike Bryant is playing a cross matchup. That every time, what he tries to do is that every time they bring Cornett in, if cat's out, he'll bring Cat back in to have him play.

[Ocho]

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Joe]

He's all, he's always tried. He's like, nah, I can't have a situation. I want to have some offense, some more offense. As long as Wendy isn't out there. So they, They've been playing that cross matchup and Cat didn't have a good. They did a great job on Cat tonight. They limited, they limited his touches. They limited him getting to the, Getting to the layer. They challenged him. Guys were physical. For sale was physical. Castle, man. Castle, man.

[Ocho]

Hey, hey, hey, hey.

[Uncle Joe]

I'm telling you, bro, he nice, Joe. He's nice. You don't want to take away what makes him special. You don't want to take his edge away. And I, I, Joe, I, I don't know what you would do as a head coach because you don't want to, you don't want to tell him too much and have him put in and pull the reins back on him because he, what he does on, on both ends of the court, you don't want to take it away. Just. You wanted to minimize some mistakes and some of the bonehead plays, and he all right, but if he does that,

[Joe]

he'll definitely be okay, huh?

[Ocho]

Hey, hey. Oo, you absolutely right. But man, when you talk about what he's doing on both ends of the court, fellas, he guarding, picking up Brunson, full court. Hell, he's switching off on Cat sometime, but yet still, yeah, he the one got off to such a great start, you know, because he's so, he's so strong in attacking the basketball. You know, he get up there, hit you with that little, that little hitch in his shot, that look, he. He paused in the air a little bit next, you know, boom. And one. He got a couple of them. Now he making threes. But I just think he is hell to try and guard, let alone on defense. He's so strong, you know, using his hands, they letting him play a little bit. You know, they caused some ticky tacks here and there, but for the most part, I feel like the game plays in Castle's hands, man. I feel like if he can continue to beat Brunson up on defense and make his make, make his butt work on offense, you know, by getting to it when he played, when he played.

[Joe]

The thing is that I love look

[Ocho]

plays with this type of efficiency, obviously him and Wimby, they just, they. Everything opens up for these other guys. Look, look, if you look at Fox and Harper, they. They didn't play great tonight. Hell, Harper couldn't make a damn shot for real. You know, he was like one for eight from three. But when you got.

[Joe]

Yeah, five of 18.

[Ocho]

Yeah, but I mean, but hell, he leading you in rebounders, you know what I mean? So you gonna have to. I wasn't mad that he was taking. I thought they was great looks. He just wasn't making.

[Joe]

They have some great. He had some great. He had some really, really great looks at threes, but he had a big three. Cause remember they hit the three at the other end and he came right back and matched it. So although he wasn't as efficient as he normally is, I thought he played an unbelievable ball game. We just got to get him to slow down, bro. You. You ain't always got to try to beat up all three people. Sometimes just pick one if they. If they three outside. Hey, wait till your. Wait till your buddies come. You take. Hey, you try to take on all three up for your buddies.

[Ocho]

Hey. Oo. He got so much in his bag, bro. Offensively, hey, it seemed like every trip down court, he trying to show you something different. Hey, he getting to it, young boy. Getting to it.

[Joe]

Joe. I think the thing is, is that Brunson's gonna get his point, but as long as he's getting an inefficient like this, I can live with it. I can live with it. I really can. Cause think about it. He got 32, but he took him 25 shots.

[Uncle Joe]

Yeah.

[Joe]

And remember the other day he was selling 25. The other day he was level to 31.

[Uncle Joe]

Yeah.

[Joe]

There's no efficiency now. The problem is that you run into is that he might be 7 of 22, and then his next five shots, he'll go 5 for 5 and it'll be five minutes left in the ball game and he'll close your ass out. That's what he did in game one.

[Ocho]

Yeah.

[Joe]

That's what he did in game river. Game two. Joe hit that big shot. They were down. Hit a big shot out. I still don't know how he made that shot. If you go back and look at the angle in which he shot it, you're not going to understand how he made it either. But he is a big shot taker. He is a big shot maker. The moment is not too big for him. They've done a great job of constantly hounding. They trapped him just enough to throw him a different look, to change his eye level. They're physical with him. You have to be. And he get to the paint. They collapsing. Now he got a move that he split it he went baseline, he got by of a cell and hit Champagne Champion like, yeah, I got you. No, I don't.

[Ocho]

The thing is, and you right, he, he's such a tough guy to guard, obviously with him being left handed. But it's not, it's not only that. It's him knowing how to use his body, you know, the strength that he plays with. But Castle, Vassell, Fox, those guys know how to brace themselves and take that challenge and, and be able to. So like when Brunson bump you, it can't knock you way out the damn play to where you can't even contest, you know?

[Joe]

Yeah, they try, they trying to draw five. They're trying to flop Joe and then what they're doing is that you, you, you can't let him have that kind of space. You can't let him operate like that.

[Ocho]

You got a, a, you got, you got to be able to absorb them bumps that when he tried to hit you and to where you can contest. It's hard. Trust me. It's hard to do. But I think the spurs are doing a great job of making it work. You know, he only bring the ball up a lot, not too much anymore. You know what I mean? He tried to get it when he get across half so he can have a little energy to try to get into his bag. But man, the spurs doing a hell of a job on him. Yeah, statistically this probably was his best game considering the fact that he shot 44% tonight. He been shooting.

[Joe]

Oh yeah, he did. Yeah. Cause he was 7 to 25 and 11.

[Ocho]

He like 41% the first two games.

[Joe]

There ain't no 41% 7 to 25 either. 7 to 25 ain't no 40 as. What did he shoot the first two games and level to 31. He might be in the 30, the high 30s. And that. And that's the thing. I think the thing is, is that them being physical with him. But you gotta, you know, look, OG is still. Oh, I mean, damn. Oh, I'm like hold on, where are you being who you. Oh gee. Playing his ass off.

[Ocho]

He been playing. He been playing his ass off this whole postseason.

[Joe]

On both ends though, Joe. On both ends. We always knew he was an outstanding defender. That's really why they got him. That's why, that's why the Knicks went out and got him. He, he has a, I mean he has a grown, grown country ass man body. So we know he has a body. But oho now and Joe, he's all combined offense with that the Three point game, the three point ball. He'll put the ball on the floor, get all the way to the rim. He got a nice little turnaround game. Pull up. He play.

[Ocho]

Hey, he.

[Joe]

He playing.

[Ocho]

He playing bigger than what he really is. He really is. I mean, you gotta think, man, he gave my Hawks hell in that first round. Cause he, he barely missed it in against the Hawks in that series. He didn't play the next series. In Philly, he didn't play. Then he come back in the Cav series and he played great. And since then, bro, he's been locked in.

[Joe]

Joe, he shot in the first game. He was. Oh, tonight was that. Tonight, Tonight he was 44. Game two, he was 28. In game. In game one, he was 38.7, so 39. So this is the first game.

[Ocho]

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Okay. Okay. Yeah, but they've been on them. They've been doing a hell of a job, man, making it work. And I think we. And that's what you had to do with a lot of these great players, bro. Especially ones who putting up, you know, these crazy numbers, 30, 35 points a night. You gotta make their ass work on both ends, bro.

[Joe]

Yep. He was 12. He was 12. He was twelve of 31 the first game, seven of 25. And then tonight he was 11 of 25 for the three point line. He shot 60%. In game one, he was three or five. Game two, he was two of eight, 25%. And tonight he was two or nine, 22%. But those two that he hit was for. Huh? Reverse. Okay, so tonight he was 60. Yeah, three or five. In game two, he was two of eight, 25. In game one, he was two of nine, 22. But the ones he hit tonight, Joe,

[Ocho]

man, they were, they were. It was like, for him just to get going, you know, he kind of, you know, because the game plan is to stop the key guys, slow them down so that. That way we gonna stick to you like glue. We ain't really gonna leave. So the shots you gonna have to take and make, they gonna be some tough ones. And you're gonna have to make them. You're gonna have to make us a believer. And he did. He did a few times. But that's what you're gonna get, bro. He gonna take enough shots to where he gonna make some. And you're gonna have to live with that.

[Joe]

Got to. I think the thing is, for us, Joe, is that I'm trying to keep him out the paint. That's. I don't want. I don't want. I don't want him sitting up a camp in my paint.

[Uncle Joe]

Yeah.

[Joe]

I don't want him close to the basket. I'm gonna have to live like you said, Joe. I'm have to live with some of those 29 footers. I just got to live with it. But I the likelihood of him beating me with those as opposed to getting into the float game.

[Uncle Joe]

Yes.

[Joe]

I already know what he can do. He get close around that basket, and because like you said, he's so crafty, he does a great job of bump. I mean, dude, he hit one shot. Did you see how high he shot that layup after he bumped the guy and was falling away and Wimpy was coming over the ball, damn near touched

[Uncle Joe]

the top, came down. That was a nice little touch. Nice little touch.

[Ocho]

Hey, if it ain't for that, he know it going in the third row, fella.

[Joe]

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Ocho]

We're going in third.

[Joe]

I mean, he'd be so close to blocking so many damn shots.

[Ocho]

I'm like, damn. Yeah. Hey, he, he, he. He was moving. He was moving today with a little sense of urgency to start that game. Boy, that what I like to see.

[Joe]

Yes.

[Uncle Joe]

He had no choice.

[Ocho]

Yeah. That's what I'm talking about.

[Joe]

Whoa, whoa, whoa, Ojo, Ojo, we don't want to hear you say basketball.

[Uncle Joe]

I'm just saying, you talk about what he did and what they did, they ain't had.

[Ocho]

Are you big man? Hold on.

[Uncle Joe]

You know what would have happened?

[Ocho]

Oh, you big man. You big man tonight.

[Uncle Joe]

I'm not, I'm not mad. I'm just. Y' all sitting here gloating and all that.

[Ocho]

Well, damn, we gotta talk about the game.

[Uncle Joe]

Yeah, yeah.

[Joe]

Hey, Joe, Joe, you know me and my basketball knowledge. You know, y' all supposed to know basketball. Un been doing basketball since 1927, Joe. You played the game of basketball. Now all of a sudden, now you look, look at it. Look at wise and otherwise, all p Mouth and everything.

[Uncle Joe]

Jo, listen, it's one thing to talk about the game, you know, and, and discuss the game, you know, but y', all, y' all ain't really talking about it. Y', all, y' all excited. Y' all

[Ocho]

oo I want more basketball, man. I, I, I, I, I like that's

[Uncle Joe]

o. I'm just saying your energy about talking about the game is not.

[Ocho]

Oh, because I was right.

[Joe]

Okay, let me ask you a question. You remember, you remember Argentina and France in the World cup last. You wanted more, didn't you? You wanted. You how they went to Sudden the penalty they went to over Sunday with the penalty kicks, and they would have doubled it. Yeah, you like that, right?

[Ocho]

Yeah.

[Joe]

Oh, Joe and I want. We want more basketball. That's it.

[Uncle Joe]

Joe, I understand that, but you ain't got to be so excited because what's going to happen is with. When, when, when Wednesday come, huh? You hear me? And it don't go the way you thought it was, you're gonna remember the

[Ocho]

night what happened when it.

[Joe]

What? What happens when it don't go your way.

[Uncle Joe]

Hey, let me tell you something, huh? If you're a betting man. If you're a betting man, I guarantee you better put game four on.

[Ocho]

I got my sp.

[Joe]

Hey, I'm trying to figure out what about that person that paid a million dollar for those two court sizes.

[Ocho]

Damn.

[Uncle Joe]

I mean, it was. It was worth it. It's. It's all about the experience, whether they want or loss. I was at game three. I paid a million dollars for it. Even though the Knicks didn't win, I was able to experience it because they haven't been in that situation.

[Joe]

Well, can we talk about the game then? Women say on the difference maker. With a big winning game, three less mistakes, more control. It's the little things. The job is absolutely not done. The hardest is still to come. You look at the points, 115 to 111. Rebounded, Joe, when they had an opportunity to really put some distance between them,

[Ocho]

rebound, second chance points, killing them.

[Joe]

But they beat him in there. To think about it, 70 assists they had, excuse me, 10 plus more assists. The spurs did three more steals, a block, fewer turnovers, shot a high percent from the free, the floor, a higher percent from the three. They was very close in the. The, the free throw, 78.1 to 81.8 points in the paint was close. 44 for San Antonio, 46 for the Knicks, second chance points. And this is where they got beat up at. The Knicks were plus 11, fast break points. Knicks plus 2.

[Ocho]

Man, they pose a wonder game by 10 plus points if they don't give up all them damn offensive rebounds. All them second chance points they were turning into baskets.

[Uncle Joe]

Hey, that's a part of the game, Joe, having second chance points as a part of.

[Ocho]

We got it.

[Uncle Joe]

Ocho has breaks, getting fast breaks in transition. It's a part of the game, Joe.

[Joe]

You got to limit those, though. We try to limit them.

[Uncle Joe]

You try to limit as much as you can, but it's just a part of the game. Even though you try to minimize it now.

[Ocho]

Yeah, you can. Yeah, you can we gotta give them one shot. Rebound. Let's go. We can't give them no offensive rebound. We give up offensive rebounds. It ain't gonna be good for us fellas. Lock in, box out, game, rebound.

[Uncle Joe]

Yeah, okay. I tell you. I tell you one thing. Brunson and Mike Brown, them boys, and they in the film right now.

[Ocho]

It don't matter. It don't matter

[Uncle Joe]

right now.

[Joe]

Guess. Hey, they watch a film, don't worry about it. But guess what? No matter how much they watch film, they got down on this one.

[Ocho]

Hello. Hey, hey, hey. The spurs feeling good, bro. Hey, it ain't feel real good. They've been. They didn't play. They really didn't play good ball. All three games. It just came down the stretch.

[Uncle Joe]

They have.

[Joe]

They've been.

[Ocho]

They've been a little inexperienced and too young.

[Joe]

They should be two one, Joe. They should have won games, too. Why you keep it 100?

[Ocho]

The spurs should be up 2 1. For real. For real.

[Uncle Joe]

[Uncle Joe]

Yeah. Okay.

[Joe]

Hey, I'm scared. I've been. I've been. I've been violated. Somebody don't come in my house.

[Ocho]

You traumatized, man. Yeah. Yeah.

[Joe]

So, hey, I will ask.

[Ocho]

Hello. Shooting first. It'll be the fourth of July.

[Uncle Joe]

Yeah, that's all right.

[Joe]

Somebody spent a million dollars just to watch the Knicks lose. The Knicks auction an auction off celebrity road tickets for game three. Something the franchise has never done. And they went for $1 million. The fundraiser benefited Garden of Dreams Foundation. The Knick said it was the largest single donation in the history of the foundation. Ocho you not slick. That's a tax write off. A million dollars for a parcel of 500000 to sit celebrity.

[Ocho]

Them folks, are they finna throw a party tonight? That's what they thought. That what they thought. They didn't went out there, but they had to have rocking everybody you got. You got the whole squad in there. You got celebrity role.

[Joe]

Chris Rock, Chappelle was there.

[Ocho]

Jay Z was there.

[Joe]

Yeah, Jay Z, Joe Khed, Ben Stiller, always there. Tracy Morgan, Tim. Oh, the who's.

[Ocho]

Hey, they redid the garden. They got club. They got club access and they thought they for the party tonight. Not tonight, fellas.

[Joe]

John Stewart was there. That. Hey, it was, it was, it was, it was, it was.

[Ocho]

Hey, hey, hey, hey. Not tonight, not tonight, okay?

[Uncle Joe]

Yeah. Hey. Hey, you know what? I'm gonna let Joe slide. Cause that's that liquor talking, that's all.

[Ocho]

What you mean

[Uncle Joe]

hey, that's that. That's that liquor.

[Ocho]

No, I'm just keeping it 100, bro. I'm just telling you what I see. Look, you know, they go ahead talking about how. How New York this, New York that. It's gonna be Gotham City. They da da, man. Look, you have to show me, partner. Show me.

[Uncle Joe]

Yeah.

[Ocho]

All right.

[Uncle Joe]

You're gonna see. You're gonna see frenzy, though, huh? Keep the same energy Wednesday night.

[Joe]

Look, and I think the thing is, is that, you know, obviously President Trump was in attendance. I guess that drove some of the ticket value down some.

[Ocho]

Damn.

[Joe]

It could inconvenience. You know, it probably inconvenienced a lot of people, because now you got to go through there like you'd be a tsa. Because he is in the house, and they're going to take every precaution as well as they should take every precaution imaginable. I. I hate when you're in a city and the President come because they block up everything. I said that, man. 10 miles away. Why the hell y' all got this blocked off? The man landed. The man landed Andrews Joe up in. In Marietta, and they don't got everything blocked out for 16.

[Ocho]

Oh, you know, man, it's. Hey, it's been a few. It's been. Been a few attempts. You know, it's been a few attempts on that, man. Life, bro. They can't. They can't play no games with it. Yeah, they ain't playing. They ain't playing. They. Hey, hey. But you're right, I think, with him being in attendance, because it took out the. The outside events that they know they typically do. Yeah, it took that away.

[Joe]

They put. They put them in, probably. I think they had one at Grant Park. They had one in Central Park. They had a. They had a couple spread out, but not the main one they normally have.

[Ocho]

Right.

[Joe]

I think, right in front of Madison Square.

[Ocho]

Yeah. So make sure Trump back in there for game four. Yeah. Yeah.

[Joe]

I mean, he probably didn't like it. They didn't. You know, everybody wasn't as receptive as he thought they would. That happened. I mean, it did you. Look, sometimes people just want to boo just because everybody. Everybody ain't gonna applaud unless you might, you know, bike with the only one that got applause everywhere he showed up at. But for the most part, it is what it is. I. I wouldn't read anything any more into it. I think it inconvenienced a little people. Some people. When you got that many people and you got. You got to go through tsa, you got to get pat down and all that stuff. But other than that, hey, I'm sure, Look, Nick fans, I'm sure you would have enjoyed, you know, want to want them to win the game, but let's. I don't make too much out of that. Well, he was there and why he cut, bro. The man. I mean, most, most presidents like sporting events. They do for the most part.

[Uncle Joe]

And I, I saw what Stephen A. Smith had to say. I saw what some other people had to say about him coming in. The inconvenience that it calls for. Not just, not just for the people attending the game, for the city, you know, in general.

[Joe]

Oh, yeah. Can you imagine that, that gridlock?

[Uncle Joe]

And then, and then I look back and I see people showing that he was really a Knicks fan and it been, and had been to many games before. But the difference is now is he's the President of the United States.

[Joe]

Yes. And they lock it down when he

[Uncle Joe]

comes and they lock it down and it conveniences everyone, I mean, in, in the area. So.

[Joe]

Yeah. Wait to the United. When the United nations come. Yeah. And they locked out every damn thing. You can't go nowhere.

[Uncle Joe]

Yeah. About if I was, if I was in a, in a seat that high and understanding how much of it in convenience those that are trying to go enjoy a game, I, I wouldn't, I wouldn't even let anybody know I was coming for one.

[Ocho]

Man, you the president, bro. You can't move in silence. What do you think this is?

[Uncle Joe]

I mean.

[Joe]

Oh, no, that's too big of an undertaking, man. They don't, they don't swept. They don't swept 30 blocks.

[Ocho]

Yeah, hey, hey. Yeah, hey, I, I, I, I get what y' all saying, but damn, if I'm the president and they announce me and I get booed. I mean, damn.

[Uncle Joe]

I mean, he's used to it, though. Hey, Joe. Hey. How many times has President Trump been somewhere and they've actually. Okay, what sporting event has he been to? And they've actually cheered. Let me, let me, let me, let me say that.

[Joe]

I mean, they're a smattering of this and that, but welcome to Roger Goodell's world, because everywhere he go, they boo him. Yeah. So, hey, it is what it is. But look, the Knicks, it was a great game. I mean, and this is the type. This is the type. I mean, for all, all three games were good. Yeah, all three games were very good. Yeah. Came down to the last possession. Game 2. This game right here. Came down to the last couple of possessions game. Game one came down to like two or three possessions. So the games have been very, very entertaining. These are the teams. I don't think I. Look, I don't think OKC would have garnered the national attention like San Antonio if great as Shay is, he doesn't have the backing like a Wimby. The Knicks are the Knicks. The Knicks base is the Knicks base. They would have traveled to Oklahoma. They tra. They travel to port. They just traveled anywhere but Shay and. Oh, and Shay doesn't have what women.

[Ocho]

I agree.

[Joe]

Which is global globalization. He just that he. And that's not to say he's not a great player. So I would. Baby, are you trying. No, that's not what I'm saying. But y' all know. Y' all know Shay is not as big global as Wimy is.

[Uncle Joe]

Right.

[Joe]

And that's okay. That's not. That's not blasphemy and that's not to put him down. He's a two time league mvp. He's a finals mvp. But on a, on a broader scale, on a bigger state is Winby.

[Ocho]

Yeah. And he affect. And he affects the game in, in more ways than just scoring. Yeah.

[Joe]

He's. He's both in. You got the account for. He. He's a guy like when. Like when. When, you know, you hear Tom Brady talk that. I had to know where Ray Lewis was. I had to know what Ed Reeds were. Were. I had to know whether there are certain guys on the defensive side of football. I guarantee you everybody that played the Rams, it used to be Cleveland find 95 and then we're going to set our protection.

[Ocho]

Right? Right?

[Joe]

Yes, sir. Because if we don't, he's gonna wreck our offense.

[Ocho]

Yeah.

[Joe]

Hey, you hear what's. What's the coach in. In Houston saying? You know, I'm gonna have to probably sit Will out a couple because he's wrecking practice and we can't get anything done.

[Ocho]

Damn,

[Joe]

that's Wimby. Yeah. You got to fight. I'm not worried about no shade on the defensive end. You got to work there. There have been a very few players that you've had to actually worry about on both ends of the court.

[Uncle Joe]

Yeah.

[Joe]

Wimby is one of them.

[Ocho]

And. And when you think about it, Wimby is larger than life. Literally at 7 4, 75 fellas with, with guard like skills. I mean hell, he shot a three so deep and made it today. I was like, damn. You know, it's just. How do you guard that when he has it going you can't. You can't. He just has to try in some way somehow find his base because he's always going to be out leveraged because of his height. He just.

[Joe]

He has to know it's hard for him to play low. Hell, I get down, I'm still seven foot tall.

[Ocho]

Right, right. So listen, so he just has to learn to go quick. I thought a few times. He called it. He went real quick, you know. Gon make his decision early because one step, man, he at the rim. He at the rim. And once he understands that part, bro, then obviously his game goes to another level. But I think if he stays relentless and focused like he's been. They just got limited mistakes, bro. They're a young team. If they keep their turnovers under 10, bruh, I'm telling you.

[Joe]

And you know, the thing is, Joe, he's such a like any man, it's hard to not to like him. Now. Now, here's the thing, though. He's young and, you know, the more success you have. Success create enemies. Success builds up resentment.

[Uncle Joe]

Yeah.

[Ocho]

You know what I'm saying? Hey, everybody.

[Joe]

Hey. With Kobe, 17, 18, 19, 20. Yeah. Yeah. Oh, man, he winning too much. Damn. Stop winning. Same thing with Magic, same thing with Bird. But no, it was. It was. It's. I mean, he just.

[Uncle Joe]

Hey, I know y' all see. I knew y' all see Wimby push Jalen Brunson in the back of the head and.

[Ocho]

Yeah, yeah, take that.

[Uncle Joe]

When we've been having, you know, from game to game to game, he, like, have some questionable moments now that are questionable now. You know, he's likable.

[Ocho]

Yeah.

[Uncle Joe]

Now he's dirty now.

[Joe]

Well, let's take a listen to what Wimby had to say about the game.

[Joe]

context that people can understand. Joe said that first week is kind of the hardest because you have it. You know, your body's gonna be a little sore. You have what they call dom, delayed onset muscle soreness. So you work out on Monday. You don't really start feeling until like Wednesday. And so you like, ah, man, I just want to lay up so sore.
