[00:00:00] Speaker A: Go out to la. [00:00:02] Speaker B: Comin from the city where no pity is. [00:00:04] Speaker A: Shell. [00:00:04] Speaker B: Shell. Somebody need to do a song for la. [00:00:06] Speaker C: Straight up. [00:00:13] Speaker D: Hello, my name is Elaine and I'll be your tour guide through South Central Los Angeles. [00:00:18] Speaker A: Look, count my nose smoke up. I'm from California. [00:00:22] Speaker B: Where you from? [00:00:23] Speaker A: So what? I'm from California. Cal, California. Cal, California. [00:00:29] Speaker B: This is Los Angeles. Well, where. [00:00:33] Speaker D: Pat Bev went in on an ongoing debate comparing James Harden and Dwayne Wade's careers. While Wade heard the chatter about the comparisons and he hopped on his own podcast to give his two cents. Take a listen. [00:00:45] Speaker C: We talking about an access key. When I. When I. When I look at the game, I look at who has an access key to get to the 30th floor. Okay, so the 30th floor access key in Winnie. I can't go to 30. Bill Russell's up there. Jordan up there like he's got. I may be on floor 25, but I ain't at floor 30. That doesn't make them. That doesn't. That doesn't mean anything to me. It just means that I don't have access to go to that floor. So if you have not won a ring, it doesn't mean you not colder than somebody who want a ring. You just don't have access to go to the. To the ring floors. [00:01:20] Speaker D: All right, Stephen, A. What should hold more weight? MVPs or titles? [00:01:25] Speaker B: See, we've talked about this. The isolated accolades versus the team accolades. I don't know. You can always be an mvp, but a champion, that's different. We'll get to it, though. It's cracking. It's cracking. It's cracking. It's cracking. And was cracking. The west, as usual. OKC still at number one, 63 and 12. Houston. We just beat Houston. My Lakers just beat Houston. So we are. I think we are like a game. I think we're a game behind. If I'm not mistaken, we're a game behind Denver. We're a game behind Denver. Denver is in number three. 47, 47 and 28. We're at 46 and 29. Memphis is on our bumper. Golden State is in the mix at number six. That's good to see. And then the bottom, the bottom feeders. Minnesota, Clippers, Dallas. Sacramento's fighting for their life. Phoenix down there looking pitiful. The west is cracking again. Once again over there at the East. We don't care. Okay, but shout out to Detroit. I wanted to do that. Especially shout out to Detroit. Forget that. Forget that. Yo, what up, though? You Gotta forget that, yo. And you got what up though? Yeah, Mike and Otis. Detroit fans. Lately, some of their pods has been heavy on Detroit Pistons making it to what, the fifth? Fifth spot, I think. I haven't checked. I haven't checked, but I'm pretty sure it's at the fifth spot. Last time I seen. Last time I did check, they were at the fifth spot. I'll check. I'll check again. It doesn't hurt to check. But I want to give a special shout out to them though. It's good to see Detroit back into the mix. That's always good to see, you know what I'm saying? They got a young. They got one of the youngest team probably what top five. Top five youngsters over there, you know what I'm saying? So that's good to see. That's good to see. They already got the playoff seatings right now though. So if we was to start, who would the Pistons play? Milwaukee. No. Is it. No, no, no, not Milwaukee. They will play Indiana. That's a cracking game right there. Milwaukee would play New York. Atlanta would play. The play in which is Orlando. Miami versus the Bull. The Bulls is in. A play in. That's solid. My Lakers would. Oh, Lakers would play Grizzly. Yeah. Cause we the four and the five. That's a good one. I like that matchup. I'll take that one. But I mean we still have. Well, we got less than where we were we sitting at. I think we got less than like seven games left or something like that. Playoffs should be starting in in about a week. Week and some change. Dodgers is back there undefeated. We're not talking about that right now. But yeah, Detroit, man, they didn't turn it around. Kind of the latest thing they was talking about. You can go check out what up though. Pass what two, three podcasts or whatever they've been talking about the Pistons. But the latest one they was talking about, which I have seen is them wanting to make a splash and changing a roster around which I would. The players that they're considering. Zion Williamson, obviously that's going to fill some seats if he's available to play. And then you got Devin Booker. Devin Booker is going to fit because they got Isiah Stewart over there. I think he is. That's probably one of the worst players they've ever had in Detroit. I've got to say it. I'm going to say it. I think he's a fraud. I think he's a cop out. I think he pushes the envelope for personal views. That's personal Views, his personal opinion. I love the other players on the squad. I do. We. And we've all had Cade. We was just, hey, at one point we was hollering at K like hey, if you, if you looking for a better situation. But he has turned it around without Ivy, which I wanted out in the draft. Oh my God. You want to talk about that? Got a game. But they seem to be turning it around and it'd be unfortunate that they had to give up a dope piece that's not there right now during all his turnaround, doing all his climbing up the charts and to only give him up for a Devin Booker. And at one point, I can't lie to you, at one point we wanted a Devin Booker for the Lakers. We look at all, all I'm talking about all young superstars at the point are stars. You know what I mean? But Devin Booker definitely gives off that. He gives off that. Devin Booker reminds me of Drake in a way. It's a certain Persona that he plays that we really know. He not like that solid cat in college on the ending of the bench for Kentucky, but he was still. I mean it's still Kentucky though, you know what I mean? But that's dope. I don't know if you want to give up those key pieces. There was a reason why we did not want to give up Austin Reeves is because what we seeing now, he is probably, probably the best third option on, on any team. And then on some teams he's probably the best, best option or second best option. You know what I mean? So we didn't want to give him up. Obviously Rui didn't want to give him up and now we're seeing that. Same thing with Detroit. I'm not sure if they want to give up some of their key players young again, top five in the league as far as youth is concerned. Youth and talent. So why would you want to gamble that away Now? Devin Booker does have Finals experience. They did go to the finals against Milwaukee and they lost. But there's a lot of key components to that coaching roster, etc. Can he help push. Is Devin Booker the key player to push Detroit to the next level? We talking about Eastern Conference, maybe even the Finals? Is that the player, does he defer or does Cade defer to Devin Booker who has, you know, much more of an extensive resume? Gotta ask yourself. Zion has probably Zion resume doesn't even, I don't even think it. The hype and coming in, yes, by far the better player than Cade coming in. But as far as when time goes on, Kate has shown to be durable and carrying a team. Not nest. Not. He is the main guy over there, you know, Zion is the main guy over there with the, with the Pelicans. But it's like when he comes, if he was to come to Detroit, who do you do like what happens? This is not one of those. I don't believe one of those. Can they play, can they play ball together? Nah, I don't, you know, because they said that about Bron and Luca and they said that about Bron and Ad. They, you know, Kobe and they was about to say that with Kobe and Chris Paul, but that never happened. But it doesn't matter. You got to figure it out. When niggas bring up that, well, can they play together? I don't necessarily care about that because at the end of the day, they professionals. The coach got to figure that out and y'all got to put y'all egos to the side and make that happen. Because if we did that in the early 2000s, we looking at a 4P, you know what I'm saying? So it's like just figure it out. The question is the same thing that I said. Shout out to my boy Denny Blanco when it comes to the playoffs. I said, look, as long as we're healthy, the only issue that we're going to have to deal with at the moment is knowing who is going to have the rock and clutch moments in the playoffs. Are we going to defer to Ron, are we going to defer to Luka or. Or will we go to the hot hand in Austin Reeves, you know what I mean? Which is a third option? It's a lot. It's a lot to think about, but I'm not a Detroit fan at all. Don't hate them. Just don't necessarily care for them. You know, they cool to watch from time to time. It's better to watch now because they playing some meaningful games. But without saying that this is some advice. I definitely wouldn't give up those pieces unless it was is. I think it's because of the options. I'm not going after Devin Booker. I'm not going after Zion Williamson. One is injury prone and he wasn't and the other one hasn't proven to actually lead his team consistently to the playoffs on his own back. You know, shout out to Chris Paul. As much as that shit on him. He was half of the reason why Phoenix made it to the finals with Devin. And then they asked guy strapped by Drew Holiday. But no, I wouldn't I wouldn't do that. I wouldn't do that. I definitely wouldn't do that. It. To me, it'd probably just set them back. It'll probably say, it'll make it exciting. We gonna see. We gonna watch. You know what I'm saying? But at the same time, let's see what they build on. You know, let's see what they build. Unless somebody else is available, which I haven't checked. Yeah, I wouldn't do that. Detroit, don't do that. Don't do that. Just build off to the youth and just see what Katie's gonna do in the future. I be coming back. Let's see if y'all can build off of that. Go get a big man, a solid big man. And. And. And. And. And see what y'all could do with that. Unless somebody else becomes available. But outside of that, the west is cracking, okay? The west is cracking. Not only that, Final Four is here on the men's side, Auburn, Florida, Duke, Houston. On the other side, all number ones, okay? Cooper Flag is in the building. A A and Cooper Flag is in the building. You want to know what else is dope? Master P gonna be in the building. Why? Because Mercy Miller is in the Final Four. This is dope. There's so many storylines surrounding this. I hate the Gators. I hate Duke. Don't have a problem with aub. Never had a problem with Houston. If I had to pick, I'm never picking Duke. So just, you know, now, if we're talking about money, that's different because I did put some money on Duke, and they didn't necessarily help me win money because another team wet the bed. Shout out to Tennessee. Did all that shooting against my Bruins and showing up and didn't. Yeah, y'all. Them niggas didn't show up the next round at all. Shout out to Duke. Because they did. You know, they hold. They held up. They in. I'm not gonna make my decision yet. I think I'm gonna put in a ticket. I'll put it in a ticket and I'll show it. I'll talk about it on the next show. As far as the women's. The women's. We got. Almost had number ones, too. [00:12:42] Speaker C: We. [00:12:42] Speaker B: But. But we do have a number two squad. UConn made it, and that was only because yo, UConn beat USC. That would have been crazy if UCLA would have been. Been able in the final Four. But we all know juju got hurt. They main player got hurt. We missed that. That matchup. Juju vs. UConn oh, my God. That would have been. But nonetheless, nonetheless, we do have a UConn UCLA matchup and then Texas and South Carolina matchup. So that should be. Now, obviously, my squad is in the mix, so I'm going for ucla. I got to. I gotta go for ucla. At the end of the day, that's who I got. That's my picks. I'm being biased about it also tonight. Later on tonight, I might miss some of it or the game, probably. No, it's not. It hasn't started yet. Hasn't started yet. But the McDonald's All American game is happening tonight. And I would just say this. When we look at the. When we look at the east roster, like their front court is, my God, they got both. They got. They got the boozer twins on the east and then. But when we go to the west, though, our back quarter is crazy because we got a cat, not necessarily from the city, not from la, but from Roosevelt, which is not too far away from me. Braden Burris. And then obviously, we got Gilbert Arenas signed Elijah Arenas on the squad. Chatsworth. So it's gonna be a dope. It's gonna be a dope game. It's gonna be a dope game, which was crazy because I don't see how. I don't see how. I don't see how. Carmelo Anthony, son, don't make this team. It's wild, but, hey, politics is politics. Overrun with btg. Man, short show again. Baseball season is back. Talk about baseball a little bit more, you know what I'm saying? Seeing that my Dodgers is, you know, I think we play Atlanta today, if I'm not mistaken. I think so, but we are currently six zero Atlanta Braves. Nasty. Hey, they. They haven't won a game yet. They're on five. Freddie Freeman injured his ankle playing around in. In the shower or something like that. He. He. Twitter. Fred, we need you to chill out. We only six games in, bro. Okay? We only six games in. You already tweaking ankle. We don't need you hobbling in. Hobbling all season. And then we have that. He may or may not play in this game. In this game. No. Every postseason is cracking, okay? The Mets and the Yankees. Oh, yeah, we forgot to talk about the Yankees and those goddamn bats. So y'all heard about these torpedo bats that the Yankees is hidden with? Y'all need. Tornado. Tornado. It's tar. It's tornado bats. Right. If I'm not mistaken, I think they call tornado bats. Is when is this. Is this is going to be crazy. To say torpedoes. Is it torpedoes or tornado? This. I said tornadoes. All right, so torpedoes. Yes, the torpedo style bats. And they are legal, right? They are legal. So let me break this down. It's gonna sound wild. The MLB bats must be made from one piece of solid wood. Be no more than 2.661 inches and die. What? They're thick as. Whoa. I'm not saying that. And not to. I'm not saying that. I'm not saying that. In other words, they move a large portion of the bat to another portion of the bat or it's just built heavier up top. This sounds wild. All the way over. Pause that. Pause that. They don't need that. They got great hitters over there. They have great. They look the running joke, right? Don't let the Dodgers get a hold to those bats. Please don't let us get a hold to those bats. Torpedo bats. I didn't even know that was a thing. But then again, you know, I'm a postseason baseball fan, so. Torpedo bats. Jesus Christ. Hey, King J, if you listening to this, I can name about five, five to seven running backs better than Emma Smith. Open run with BTG and I am out of here, bucko.
