Welcome back to the Alley oop You already know. I'm joined by my illustrious sister, Trista Crick. Bump the intros. We got a lot to talk about. Let's get straight into it.

[DLS Hoops Host 1]

This has to be the best puffer jacket in God's creation. I already know. I got multiple people dming me that I had to comment on this. So I cannot wait for this back and forth. I haven't spoken about this. It's hard when you talk about women's basketball all the time to not have something that is fresh and not been touched. Like the, like mother's milk inside their teat, if you will. So when are we going to add it to the screen? It's not on the screen. You can't.

[DLS Hoops Host 2]

No. Look at the Ms. Rebecca, ladies and gentlemen.

[DLS Hoops Host 1]

Come on.

[DLS Hoops Host 2]

This is Mr. Becca. Look, take a bow. She was a professional.

[DLS Hoops Host 1]

It's usually the talent that struggles with the technology, but today it's been production. You can see your doc, you can see your document. We can't see anything else.

[DLS Hoops Host 2]

We see that doc. That's a beautiful doc.

[DLS Hoops Host 1]

It's a great Google Doc. Stop with me. This is not. Where is.

[DLS Hoops Host 2]

Ain't nobody effing with you except you, Mr. Becca. Oh, yeah, there she goes.

[DLS Hoops Host 1]

It's utterly beautiful.

[DLS Hoops Host 2]

Okay, she's back.

[DLS Hoops Host 1]

Are these from the stove or from the source, bro?

[DLS Hoops Host 2]

That look like straight from the source. Like, what the hell?

[DLS Hoops Host 1]

That's some cocaina level mother's milk, bruh.

[DLS Hoops Host 2]

I love Scarlett Diggins. Scarlett Diggins. I love the passion in her. She remind me of Russell Westbrook. Like she just a dog, but girl.

[DLS Hoops Host 1]

This is what it is. When the CBA comes back and they say they have some additional support for mothers in the wnba, that somebody is going to be the one that carries all the mother's milk for the kids in the daycare, in the room on the back. Like all she needs to do is just poke and then the little babies can, you know, that you don't even need. You could literally label them. Like, this is from Sky. This is from Nafisa. This is from. And we send them all. This is like a. This is like a blood bank, but for milk, bruh.

[DLS Hoops Host 2]

Like, like I say, I don't know if this is a cause. I don't know what the cause is.

[DLS Hoops Host 1]

I think it's an ad from Big Cow. Big Cow from Big Cow. Yeah. Big Cow is coming in. I know. It's not. It's not what we think it is. So it's not plant based. It's not plant based. Oh, I don't think that's almond milk, baby. Almond mil milk doesn't have that thick cocaina white that we see, right?

[DLS Hoops Host 2]

Almond milk.

[DLS Hoops Host 1]

It's translucent almond milk. I've made my share of almond milk in my day, and it doesn't have that level of bright, ice white air Force one energy. You know what I mean? That's fire. Whatever. Like, even if it wasn't milk, even if it was just white paint that had been diluted, which it could be, I don't think that's all milk because that's. That's a hazard, right? It got to be milk.

[DLS Hoops Host 2]

You can't wear a milk jacket. And it's really white painting.

[DLS Hoops Host 1]

Did you see the ad? Did you see the ad where she open? Oh, we gotta open up. You gotta find the ad, Mr. Rebecca. There's a whole thing. It's just her opening up a fridge, and the only thing inside of it is that vest, bro.

[DLS Hoops Host 2]

The fear that just came across Ms. Rebecca eyes when you said, Ms. Rebecca find the ad. This not bothers sis. Going through it today. I don't know what she doing. I don't give a damn. She got that from the milk from Maau. Straight from the te. Like Ms. Rebecca say, utterly ridiculous, bruh. You go outside in that jacket, right? You going out outside in that jacket in the cold, that thing gonna freeze. And now you colder.

[DLS Hoops Host 1]

Listen, my milk coat brings all the boys to the yard, and they're like, it's better than y'.

[DLS Hoops Host 2]

All.

[DLS Hoops Host 1]

That's a. That's, I think, a fetish, too.

[DLS Hoops Host 2]

It is a fetish. It ain't gonna help them get no playoff wins because the aces put foot in the milk last night. They put the whole goddamn turd in the middle.

[DLS Hoops Host 1]

You bring it back to basketball. I'm glad you brought it back to what matters.

[DLS Hoops Host 2]

Speaking of turds and milk, Scarlet Diggings ran off the court last night. It looks like a boo boo to me. Like, I mean, I'm not trying to be immature. This looks like a Paul Pierce situation.

[DLS Hoops Host 1]

She held her towel over her butt and ran into the locker room. What else could it be? Maybe that's the sign for I need to go fill up the milk jacket. I think it's an ad for the I play on my period ad.

[DLS Hoops Host 2]

Okay, see, now I am out of this conversation.

[DLS Hoops Host 1]

That right there is 4D chess. That right there is 4D chess. If you leave a playoff game to woman's nightmare, you know what it is? You know what? That is a good, good call. There's. You shouldn't if you're. You should have like, the period shorts where you like, if you're. You should like.

[DLS Hoops Host 2]

Hey, okay, what are period short. No, no, no, no, no, no, no. Explain these period shorts. Like, I'm a second grader.

[DLS Hoops Host 1]

So when. When you have your period, sometimes the. The tampons don't be tamponing. Right.

[DLS Hoops Host 2]

Okay.

[DLS Hoops Host 1]

Starts coming, things start coming, things start going out.

[DLS Hoops Host 2]

I'm with you.

[DLS Hoops Host 1]

And when that happens, it. The. The barrier of your thong or your underwear, it is just very minimal and by longer an option. Okay.

[DLS Hoops Host 2]

Okay.

[DLS Hoops Host 1]

So period shorts are any color shorts that will not show your period on said shorts.

[DLS Hoops Host 2]

So she should have on a pair of green shorts just because.

[DLS Hoops Host 1]

Yes, yes, yes.

[DLS Hoops Host 2]

Oh, my God. Oh, that's a good.

[DLS Hoops Host 1]

That's a good video, though. The question is, is it responsible or irresponsible journalism to follow up at the presser? You lost by a bajillion to the Las Vegas Aces. But we saw you leave the tunnel with a towel over your shorts.

[DLS Hoops Host 2]

I don't give a damn. Mr. Rebecca, do you have any more word on the curse for the kids? Mr. Beck, I promise to God, you gotta learn how to make this video bigger. In my life, we watching this and everything I see. We see your emails.

[DLS Hoops Host 1]

Yeah, we do see her even.

[DLS Hoops Host 2]

We see yo dick pics. Like, can you just make finally. Yes.

[DLS Hoops Host 1]

Better. Oh, Jesus. It's better. You know what someone should capture is, is when Skyler Diggins gets back to the locker room.

[DLS Hoops Host 2]

Sky diggings gonna get us, bruh.

[DLS Hoops Host 1]

Yo, she is so ripped and so strong.

[DLS Hoops Host 2]

Remember when the Owls lost to the vinyl in the Unravel League playoffs for the first time all year?

[DLS Hoops Host 1]

Yes.

[DLS Hoops Host 2]

I ain't never seen somebody madder than Skylar Diggins at that.

[DLS Hoops Host 1]

Like, I was like, heated and. And it's like her eyes when she's upset, you just. I don't. You don't know. You just leave her be for a while. Don't ask her if there's anything wrong. Don't ask her. Hey, you need it. Just really get out the way. Let her do this. Let her put that milk vest on in peace.

[DLS Hoops Host 2]

You feel me? Come on, sis. Salute. Especially when she got the messy bun. When she got the messy bun on top of her head and this jump ball tip.

[DLS Hoops Host 1]

That's great.

[DLS Hoops Host 2]

Watch out. Watch out. Yeah, don't come over here.

[DLS Hoops Host 1]

Don't make her put that Notre Dame headband on either.

[DLS Hoops Host 2]

See, then that's a problem. It's gonna be a real big problem. Yeah. Salute to Notre Dame.

[DLS Hoops Host 1]

Salute to her. I love some Skylar Diggins.

[DLS Hoops Host 2]

The storm went to Las Vegas last night. Lay the egg, man. Like, I know it's the playoffs. I know the Vegas Aces have won what, 15, 16 in a row.

[DLS Hoops Host 1]

That's 17 now. That's 17 after last night.

[DLS Hoops Host 2]

That's ridiculous. Becky Hammond, damn. Like that's so fire. But at the same time, I spent more from the Storm. I spent more from the team nickel last night. She was doing stuff that was uncharacteristic. She was throwing balls at folks. I'm like, look.

[DLS Hoops Host 1]

Yeah, let's see that.

[DLS Hoops Host 2]

Do you have that available? I plea. I don't mean to your day. Worse. Ms. Rebecca.

[DLS Hoops Host 1]

Let's see if she can figure it out. Let's see if we have like. Okay. Cupid on the tabs.

[DLS Hoops Host 2]

Exactly.

[DLS Hoops Host 1]

Or only. Only Farmers. I don't know what you're into. Is this the cpt?

[DLS Hoops Host 2]

Yeah. Cpt. Yeah, yeah.

[Mike]

Cpt.

[DLS Hoops Host 2]

Okay, here we go. There she go. She back.

[DLS Hoops Host 1]

Let's not get. Let's not get too excited. Just give mama a second. Give Mama a second.

[DLS Hoops Host 2]

Put that on the shirt, Dylan. Give Mama a second. Look at Neca. Look at Madam President. She gets the ball in. You know what? Oh.

[DLS Hoops Host 1]

She literally just rolled it over Chelsea Gray's head right there.

[DLS Hoops Host 2]

This is the playoffs and I don't think that they got their mind right. I know Noel will get them right going back to Seattle.

[DLS Hoops Host 1]

Will she get him right? Will she get him right?

[DLS Hoops Host 2]

As right as they can be.

[DLS Hoops Host 1]

There is. There is no team that's level of play does not match their talent as much as the Seattle Storm. You have an mvp, former MVP caliber player. In Neca, you have a rookie who is like wise and skill beyond her years. In Dominique Malanga.

[DLS Hoops Host 2]

Yeah.

[DLS Hoops Host 1]

You have one of the best 3 and D players in the league. Stifling defense. In Gabby Williams, you have a bucket getter ISO creator. In Skylar Diggins, you have a rim protector rebounder. In Ezzy Magdebor.

[DLS Hoops Host 2]

Yeah.

[DLS Hoops Host 1]

Come on now. You've got a six Woman of the year. Get you a clutch bucket at the end of the game just to sneaky squeak it into the playoffs in Erica Wheeler.

[DLS Hoops Host 2]

There it is. One more.

[DLS Hoops Host 1]

One more guys. Where. Who did I miss?

[DLS Hoops Host 2]

They got an all star point guard that they traded for that.

[DLS Hoops Host 1]

Oh, I forgot all about Slim. And then you got the best dressed, most cool composed player who can do a little bit of everything. Swiss army knife in Slim.

[DLS Hoops Host 2]

Come on, man.

[DLS Hoops Host 1]

Britney Sykes. A player who was an all star and probably should have been an all star before everybody got injured. Couldn't even get the vote while her rookies Got the votes. So you got six, seven players who are like really high caliber players. And you put up that level of an egg on the aces who just a month ago were just scratching and clawing for your life. Why aren't you scratching and clawing for your life? Why aren't you prepared to send two, three bodies at Asia Wilson? Why are you letting her go isolation one on cooking, barbecued chickening you in the paint, putting up almost 30 points and multiple other stat lines letting her shoot wide open threes. What are we doing here, Noel?

[DLS Hoops Host 2]

Look, might drop on that one. Look, there is nothing I can say that can add on to that. She just put it perfect.

[DLS Hoops Host 1]

Can we talk about the Mercury real quick?

[DLS Hoops Host 2]

Let's go.

[DLS Hoops Host 1]

If Alyssa Thomas wants to be ever seriously considered an mvp conversations. You cannot airball and you cannot smoke an open layup. You cannot turn the ball over. All in the span of the last 1 minute and 20 seconds where your team does not score at all.

[DLS Hoops Host 2]

Also missed two free throws.

[DLS Hoops Host 1]

Two free throws. Clutch two Fritos.

[DLS Hoops Host 2]

Come on.

[DLS Hoops Host 1]

Come on now. Can't have that.

[DLS Hoops Host 2]

You might need to get the shoulder.

[DLS Hoops Host 1]

Surgery soon because listen, if this was, if this was a men's broadcast, talk about the next day. Stephen A. Smith or Skip Bayless or whoever would be like, Alyssa Thomas is not a true superstar. Because superstars are not allowed to do all of this mess at home in a best of three series. And now you're going back to New York. You're probably cooked. And this was your opportunity because Brianna Stewart right there got injured. And I know she got injured in overtime, but it was only a matter of time. Probably in a non contact situation in game two or whoever knows. But she had that opportunity to steal game one. And you have home court advantage. And you can't just say at the end of the game it's a make or miss leak. That's just. You have to take accountability.

[DLS Hoops Host 2]

Right? I. I messed up, coach. Look, it won't happen.

[DLS Hoops Host 1]

I need to make that.

[DLS Hoops Host 2]

I. Bare minimum. Yeah, bare minimum. It won't happen.

[DLS Hoops Host 1]

Gotta make that.

[DLS Hoops Host 2]

I gotta make them free throws. I gotta make a layup for the winner. The game winning regulation.

[DLS Hoops Host 1]

Oh, and it was open, wide open. Gotta. Gotta do that. Gotta get your own rebound and not let Sabrina get up in there. There were four, five critical Alyssa Thomas M breaks and errors and pieces of vulnerabilities that you just cannot have when you've had as good of a season and you want to be the marquee player of a franchise. Just can't have that.

[DLS Hoops Host 2]

Right. And Nicole McConney cross. Turn over it. Oh, my God. We're under a minute to go, bro. But deposited from the other side of the ball. Natasha Cloud, man. Natasha Cloud say, oh, y' all boys decided to trade me when y' all said y' all weren't never gonna trade me. And we happen to have y' all on our playoff schedule to get to the semifinals. Take these right here. Come on, man. 20 points. Yes. I'm back in the desert. And take these with the black mask on. Mask of the Phantasm. My sister.

[DLS Hoops Host 1]

The Kobe. The Kobe mask. The Kobe mask.

[DLS Hoops Host 2]

Come on now and return to the Valley. Man. Did bit work. Great win by the Liberty.

[DLS Hoops Host 1]

You know, great gritty win. We need the stars to be starring.

[DLS Hoops Host 2]

That's what we need. And speaking of stars, starring Minnesota Links, man. New star was real starry.

[DLS Hoops Host 1]

The ring ready.

[DLS Hoops Host 2]

Oh, get the ring ready.

[DLS Hoops Host 1]

Ring ready. Get the ring ready.

[DLS Hoops Host 2]

God, bruh, the salute to the stars that they got. But Leticia Hyde yesterday, big 18 points, 4 assists, 3 rebounds up still plus 33 on the game in the. It's the playoffs. We're not talking about practice, we talking about the playoffs, Stud bud. Stand up, pink wigs. Where are you? Unite, Autobots. Let's go. Like, Bruh, how can you be a Minnesota Lynx fan and not think that the championship is yours this year? Like, Big Fee, I ain't even have to. I don't even think she had to play in the fourth quarter.

[DLS Hoops Host 1]

She did not. She was chilling. She was kikiing over there in the bench in her warm ups. She didn't have to do a damn thing. And I tell you what, even though Courtney Williams only had 11, 4 and 4, I would say this light work, light work. Don't have to do nothing. Just 27, 27 minutes is all she had to play. But she has changed her game and changed her conditioning because we saw anybody who was in the building at Barclays saw that the court didn't have it at the end of the game. She didn't have it in overtime. She was gassed. She had some. Obviously some big moments that got them back in, responsible for a couple of those wins. But she's changed everything now that her. And now her endurance is up, up. So I don't know that she will even need to go the distance.

[DLS Hoops Host 2]

Okay.

[DLS Hoops Host 1]

In terms of minutes and in terms of like testing the. The lengths of her endurance, like conditioning work. Yeah, but she's ready. She looks on another level. Her mid range game is sexy. It's. Yeah, it's Just it, like it's just automatic. You know what I mean? And so she's getting to the paint, right?

[DLS Hoops Host 2]

Especially now. Like not enough is said about when you doing everything you doing, when you having success and you having wins and you doing it next to your dog.

[DLS Hoops Host 1]

Come on now, bro.

It's. That's a different level of just confidence. That's why I feel like Leticia can go crazy. She already been a dog no matter what. Like she been a dog with Connecticut. She's been about every stop she had, but now she got her twin with her every step of the way. They asked salute to Atlanta right now. We're going through a lot, but Big Bang asked other day, why you ain't putting in music out. You feel me? And he was like, I ain't got my twin with me. It feel different now. I. I don't. I ain't got no friends right now, bruh. To have this type of success, be the number one seed in the wnba, have the whole arena rocking the pink wigs.

[DLS Hoops Host 1]

Come on.

[DLS Hoops Host 2]

It's because of you and your twin. Come on, bro. I might score 30 points off that alone. Like, that confidence, that's life saving confidence. That's like everything when it comes to that.

[DLS Hoops Host 1]

And her story is incredible. I was such a huge fan. I really. She became probably my favorite guard to watch when she played for Connecticut. Courtney.

[DLS Hoops Host 2]

Yeah.

[DLS Hoops Host 1]

I was like, if I could put my. If I could just inject someone else's game into me, it would be court you. Just the swag, the handles, just how she does. She's just saucy and she produces. And you're right to do it next to your friend. To have this big of a moment when you're on the COVID of Vogue. To have the Stud Buds movement be what it is to have the CMO of Twitch want to meet you because of how successful you guys have been at a game. To have the whole arena rocking the pink wigs because of you and you have home court advantage through the whole playoffs where that crowd is going to be right there.

[DLS Hoops Host 2]

Right?

[DLS Hoops Host 1]

I mean, it's ring. It's ring season.

[DLS Hoops Host 2]

It's ring season and dad is supporting the big way. Look, I. Courtney Williams is a sore subject for me just because she was an Atlanta Dream because they discarded her.

[DLS Hoops Host 1]

She should have been a max player in Atlanta right now, bruh.

[DLS Hoops Host 2]

I. Look, we gonna keep respect on the Atlanta Dream organization because.

[DLS Hoops Host 1]

Yes, but. But that's a different. That was a different organization.

[DLS Hoops Host 2]

It kind of was, but it kind of wasn't because it was still, not too long ago, because I ain't look. But she got into an altercation during the summertime where her and her homegirl, Crystal Bradford, they put the paws on somebody, a grown man. They put the paws on a man outside here at the food truck in Atlanta. It's a popular spot, but at the same time, that look isn't necessarily what the team was going for. They don't want to be associated. So that ultimately turned into Ryan Howard, you feel me? Because we ended up giving up the rights to Connecticut. But every single game I would see Courtney play in Atlanta, my seats are pretty awesome. So I always tell her, she can't guard you. Nobody can guard you. You're the best player in the world every time, like, and that was in 2021. This is. This 2021, 22 we talking about is how I felt about Courtney. Hero to me, because she's also from a small country town called Folkston, Georgia, Southeast Georgia, and it's not too far from Waycross, Georgia, where I'm from. And so people don't make it out there and do this type of. In the world. So I'm always a fan of Courtney, man. But damn, I feel like we had one. Even though, like I say, we turned into Ryan Howard and we got it going.

[DLS Hoops Host 1]

That's pretty damn good. That's pretty damn good, right?

[DLS Hoops Host 2]

So I can't be mad, but at.

[DLS Hoops Host 1]

The same time, different players. Totally different players.

[DLS Hoops Host 2]

Right, right, right, right. I always have respect and love for Courtney. Always gonna support the stud buds. You got to know. Look, man, I can't put it no better than that. Thank y' all for tuning in, man. As always, thank you to my sister, Trista Crick.

[DLS Hoops Host 1]

Thank you.
