TRANSCRIPT · AUTO-GENERATED

This is the place where sports opinions go like that in sports. I am, you know, I was going to say 365. I am Kenneth B and it's joining me on the show. We got P four, 24 seven.

What to do with it? Do show them, Jack. What's the where I mean? What's happening?

We got a Q Q. This is bad. Can we hear what's up? What's up?

What's up, man? We got a synopsis of me. We got MJ, 23 and J four, five. I think I'll get 23 out of here.

And I do know the intro. You forgot your name for a little bit. You were thinking about it. But not man, I don't even want to be here these days, but these niggas be just.

Sending me acts and all this shit. I'm going to share his privacy. Ain't that shit? Hey, but man, it's a good day though.

It's a good day for me. It's such a good day for Lucas. Hold on. He might win.

What's crazy is that even though even though I don't care for Golden State, if they win, they'll guarantee that we're going to see a black and gay. What do you mean? Shut that bull. It's a little black squad.

They're saying they had no white boy. They won't have to represent. They won't have to represent. Golden State.

They don't have to do. They do. They got. They got.

They got a lot of fun. Bling, Bling, Bling, Bling, Bling. Yeah, they don't count. Be elitism.

Call him David Lee. 2.0. When last time we got on the court? It ain't been out there.

I didn't say that. David Lee only played one good year. We'll go this day. Then he was the best woman.

He didn't get a ring that year. Was that before that? That was before he played. Damn, that was the year before they won, right?

Yeah, because he got hurt. Mm-hmm. And when he came back, it was too late. And David Lee used to be that day.

He was so awkward. He wanted the best niggas. But he's so awkward. He is awkward.

That ball just don't feel right in his hands. It doesn't be everywhere. No, his whole body. He don't have a jillie.

That's his problem. He has a jillie. He's not body. What I didn't know was 21 points.

Is this career high? Yeah. He's not asking me much. I mean, I'm saying it's like the Robert Parrish of this thing.

Because I don't think Robert Parrish is going to have to do it much. No, no, no, no. Back in the day, he was in touch. I know, but not like.

Or maybe I remember old ass Robert Parrish. You remember old Chicago Bulls. The chief. Yeah, no, no, no.

The latter. Before he left Boston. He was getting buckets in Boston at one point. Yeah, not before he left.

I remember old ass Robert the chief wasn't really going to shit. He was like, he just benefited off everybody else. He gave green hair for the bit. Robert Parrish.

You sure you're not thinking about somebody else? No, the chief. Double zero ended his career in Charlotte. I got that.

How was he in Charlotte? He played for the Bulls. He was like, people start jumping around. Does Jason Tatum have a jillie?

Yes. What? It's just he looks so, it's like when I see him do certain things, it looks weird. Like, he doesn't look like I know what you're saying.

Yeah. He has a jillie, but he's because he built like a praying man. You know what I'm saying? So like it looked different.

That's the best. But he still can get where he can get where he can go. You know what I'm saying? He'll break it.

Go like a couple of shots, a couple of moves and they last night they were they were athletic, but they just look like stiff. I get it. I see it. He's like double jointed.

Like if you look at his jump shot, like his elbow like pops in and she's very like straight arm. Like he is a little bit. He doesn't look. Yeah, he's not he's not he's not he's not smooth.

He OK, so it's very difficult to kind of explain because I feel the dribbling is very like smooth. Like he can get where he wants to get a nice little stutter to his game. But how he finishes, how he shoots that is the arm limbs. They they're a little awkward when he uses them.

Yeah, but everything else is pretty fluid though. OK, yeah. Jalen Brown looks smoother at finishing than Jason Taylor. Jalen Brown got a lot of wasted motion in the things that he did.

But I'm just I'm just talking about like we talking about jump shot and how to come off. Somebody said check maybe the number one got down pick. That's the issue with the action to the lottery. Did I already get that?

Yeah. Yeah. You did a couple of these to check 100%. Right.

That's that's that's that's that's that's they are saying that he's not because of his eyes on favor. They talk about so they try to do the whole thing like how Cincinnati got to a girl to one chase. They go have so good. Yeah, Janet's was his high school teammate.

They both went to Gonzaga. They want multiple state championships in high school. I tell you what what else we're not going to do. They even doing right since since chat.

Yeah, I mean like I said, Obama's got a song white boy. A chance Obama just got a song. I tell you what though he does not like for confidence. Did you see what he said?

They said who's the best player in the NBA? He said a couple months. It don't be me if he don't sit his ass down straight face. I know that's and that's and that's the reason why everything I just said, I'll take it back.

Because I remember that quote down. Yeah, he's going to get his skin. He is here. You don't get his chest caved.

He said I'm skinny, but I'll be working out. He running it. I think he's running away from us. When he goes up against them.

The ones he always show up. I'll tell you that. What's the one guy's when he was in high school? He's talking about the pros.

I'm talking about the pros. I'm talking about the pros. There was no. Oh shit.

I guess a few of those guys. I seen the show guy. Who he might. I'm saying.

Sharon. I'm saying. But in college, right? Like the press of his to the NBA.

Every time they play legit comp, his numbers were all down across the board. Yep. That's all. He has a rough game.

The rough game versus tough competition. I'm not seeing that man's praises. What I'm saying is he ain't as bad as people think he going to be. But here's the thing.

I like check. But at the end of the day, right? I can't believe I'm about to make this comparison. Oh, no, that's not.

Wait a minute. I got to run a cup. Then James Hart. And you know how I feel about them guys.

But I'd rather have the guy that steps up in those moments that I need them to step up versus the guy that's going to be nice throughout the season and when they're going to get. Oh, no, you asking me which one I really have? No, no, no, no, no, no, no. What I'm saying is that Chet right now in college, in exactly look more like James Hardy, then Jimmy Butler, meaning that when the road was easy, it's all fucking great.

I just and then when the shit got tough, the nigga, he ain't do shit. I get you. Now, like I said, I said on my 365. Jabari is my guy.

That's my guy guy. So Jabari is my favorite. I don't know. I think you know who I really want.

And obviously, I'm wondering about talking NBA, grab more stuff in the mix perspective. Was it? Yeah. He's going to be a steal.

He's going to be the steal of the drive. I'm telling you, right? Whoever gets it. Clean his door dance.

Was that Bullock? Yep. Bullock or whatever. Well, he ain't man.

What do you hear? He's going to say he's going to last. He didn't do his hit a bar. You know what it is, man?

His side check was probably in Phoenix. He's going to have to because he's going to have to because he's going to his last game. He's not going to. He's hating.

This dude's going to play. He's going to cut his shit. He need to cut his shit. The rapper?

Yeah. He made a record. How? He made a record.

He's going to hit. He's talking about what? All right. Let's get into it.

Cute. Cuz, uh, I got the first question. It's for you. My bad.

I forgot you was here. Who's going to be whoever wins this Eastern Conference Finals. Are they a bona fide superstar moving forward between Jimmy Butler and Jason Tatum? Jimmy Butler is already a superstar.

I'm the same bona fide though. Because a lot of niggas still say he's not. Well a lot of people don't know shit, but Jimmy Butler's been a superstar. Jason Tatum is the person who has to prove it.

If he does make it too, it just doesn't say them does make it too. If I think you just got to give it to him, but it's, I don't think it's solidified. I just think that you kind of just have to give it to him this year and in perpetuity, he has to prove it continually. I think the issue with Boston right now is that they don't have a point guard still.

They still don't have that guy that can slow things down and can get them into the half course sets. Marcus Martin, he's a combo guy. He's definitely not the lead point guard I would want to handle the ball because no one can really dribble one Boston in terms of half court sets. If you look at in terms of getting into your move, getting to your shot, yeah, they have those type of handles, but in terms of like those CP handle like that LeBron, you know, LeBron is we have a great handle.

He has a great pace to his handle and half court. Either you got to have a pace to your handle or you have to have those type of like CP type of handles. And no one on Boston can slow it down like that, which is why Jalen Brown had all those turnovers, is why Jason Tatum doesn't really dribble, dribble, dribble, dribble like that, unless he's on isolation. So that's to me, that's something that's going to stop Boston from getting to the finals.

But if Tatum can rise above that small deficiency in their armor, I think that he would have to give it to him. That's a problem. It's not dribbling. That's the problem is playmaking because I agree with you, you know, all of those guys, if you're an NBA and you plan a perimeter, you have dribble, you have some sort of handle.

Marcus Smart has handled the problem is he doesn't have natural playmaking ability. Jason Tatum, Jalen Brown, nobody on that squad has a natural playmaking ability. They can get the ball up the court and can make a dude stumble, you know, say, but do you see the play before it happens? They have a guy like that.

That's their biggest thing. But go ahead, what you was going to have back to the question was about superstar thing. I was with you on that Jimmy Butler thing until he scored six points last night. And I know he was injured, but it's hard to see a superstar score six points in the Eastern Conference final.

That's tough for me. And it's tough for me looking at the same thing the game before. You got 10 points and what seven turnovers out of all boys. I'm like, how are these guys superstars when they're showing up laying these eggs like this?

The real superstars lay eggs like that, in your opinion? Yes, they have the broad James. Oh, Steph Curry in the playoffs. That game is Steph Curry ever scored.

No, I'm saying he laid a he's called. I'm saying in general as far as make mistakes, not look like superstars. Do shit that is out of character. I mean, guys, I'm doing the media.

Done it. I'm never seen him before in single digit. Oh, Joe, maybe this that maybe this example. But I'm saying there's other examples of superstars fucking up in a game or fucking up the game.

There, you know, there's definitely been super star like LeBron melted down in 2011 final. You know what I mean? So it's like everybody has struggles. Yeah, everybody has struggles.

Here's the thing like with Jimmy Butler during the regular season, he's an all star. When the pressure is at his biggest, he steps up again. I'm a still maintain. He's the he's the barometer between all star and superstar.

He teeters that line every game. He's from game to game. He might be a superstar this game or two, three games in a row and then he's not. Then I can't say he's bonafide.

Even if they make another fight, I can't say he's bonafide. I'm with it. Because you can't say how does a man make two NBA finals in the last three years? He has the best player on the team and he's not why because sometimes.

I'm sorry for fact, because some play he's not the only reason why they got there. But the bigger reason why they got there is because of culture. It's not because of Jimmy Jimmy didn't bring that along. They have a championship coach, they have a championship culture.

And that is more important than any single player. They're giving them versus Jimmy. I'm giving them 60%. Yes.

I'm going to afford it. I'm going to be hired to say. I had that culture after LeBron name do shit until Jimmy got. No, no, no, no, no.

They had that culture, sir, with Jamal match, Brin, Tim Hardaway and Alonzo morning with Pat Riley talking about since. You're talking about the coach. But I'm talking about since LeBron. No, no, no, no, no.

It precedes that if when Pat Riley left the New York Mets, wait, hold on. When Pat Riley left your beloved team and came to Miami, that moment is when that culture completely changed. They have been a winning organization regardless of the players or the coach there since Pat Riley or Ron. That was the turning point for that organization.

And they just they just been able to build upon that. That's why that organization is bigger. It supersedes any player, including LeBron. That the team with Penny and on, do they go to the finals?

Penny. Tomorrow we are. They made it to the center conference. They make it to the end day.

Not a game. They make it to the team. No, they make it to the end. It's a team sport.

No, I'm saying that they make it to the final. Still the way and then later on LeBron and now Jimmy possibly twice. Yes. But it's still because of the organization.

I get to I get the culture. Because how many teams stars? How many teams? He's a superstar.

How many teams have gone to multiple finals with different spots? The Celtics. OK, the Celtics and the Lakers, but they don't want the most in the whole NBA. San Antonio.

So had the same court, the same big three, we consider multiple more than two. But what I'm saying is they went with D. Wade and Shaq. They went with LeBron and then they went with Jimmy Butler.

And then why is that? It's not because it's not solely because of the player. It's because that organ is the way that organization is ran. OK, but nonetheless, during those iterations, they had superstars on each one of the that.

But you don't understand because you know what you question Jimmy. You just said it's a star. Sometimes he's not like right here. You just started throughout that whole process.

He has not been. Hello, there's only one kind of super star. What are you talking about? Multiple kinds of.

There's one guy. The only kind of super star that I know of is the guy that by himself will get you to the playoffs and at least get you one game. I'm saying LeBron James superstars different than the Kobe Bryant. They both get your championship.

OK, but I'm just saying it's still a different. Look, styles make fights, Nick. But at the end of the day, the main reason why the Miami Heat have been successful has not relied upon one player. It has been the front office in that entire organization.

But hasn't it also hasn't it been the front office is an acumen to be able to identify a certain kind of player though and those certain kind of players. You got up. No 100% but that's what I'm saying. It's cultural and organizational first with the Miami Heat.

Yeah, it's like it's like it's like saying that a person who can identify a certain kind of car. You know what I mean? Like I only want cars that you know you use your car guy. Like you know, I don't know all the terminology but you want top of the line share, right?

Best engine, best wheels, whatever best, whatever. Fuck it is, right? That's exhaust, all that shit. Good mileage.

And if you know how to identify that certain car, you only can know that you can win a race with that certain car. So obviously that is your genius of knowing all the car shit, all race car shit, but you're still only getting a certain kind of car. So way LeBron, they're not in the same tier. They're higher.

Obviously, so I'm saying they're not the same tier as Jimmy who's a lower tier. But to me, those are still superstar talents. Check when he comes in. This is superstar talents.

Check was a lesser superstar at that time. He was still a superstar in the NBA and like, oh, six, he's still not probably as bad. He's probably not as good as KG or Dirk at that time who were younger, but they knew that they could win with him. So I don't see how Jimmy who's damn their average and 40 in these playoffs.

He's not a superstar because he has one bad game. That's just kind of what you have to attribute to only the like the pace of the NBA now with just how everything is just a pre-point shooting competition, it's a lot of competition. And it's also like you kind of just got to attribute it to what kind of player he is. Let me clarify that.

You know, I'm not saying that he, you know, the one bad game should define him. That's not what I was trying to say. What I was saying is I would expect a kind of game like that from Jimmy every now and again. I know he's going to let it.

He's going to give me some good game, but he's going to give me a Jimmy game. I mean, I just know he is also. I don't really fear if I was a Miami Heat player, I wouldn't fear to lose it. You know, like some players are out and you like, they ain't got a chance.

You know what I'm saying? Like certain players go down. You like this team has no chance. If look it go down, if look it goes down.

That was a big deal. No chance. You know what I'm saying? John Moran goes down even though they did win that game pretty big.

You knew they didn't have a chance to win that series. Jimmy can go down and Miami still can get it done. That's just how I view that team. I don't know.

I don't know. I don't know. You're fixing that team culture and that team culture work. Y'all are being very disrespectful.

I don't agree with that. I don't agree with that. Pat Riley and all this other heat culture bullshit and what if you become a heat fan all of a sudden you're not going to be on the heat side. You're not going to be on the heat side.

I don't know what's going on. I've always said my two teams are Chicago, Miami. Now you were the last of the longest in the playoffs. I picked the Celtics in six and I'm sticking to that.

I'm not changing. My two men. All I'm doing is identifying the reason why they've been successful. And it's Jimmy.

What was Pat Riley there? And Eric's supposed to there when the bottom left. It was down for a minute. It wasn't like about three or four years.

It wasn't like about three or four years. It was in Philly for almost two years. Right? Was they doing shit in the playoffs?

Because they do what shit in the playoffs. Because make the playoffs and shit. The Hawks make the playoffs last year. They don't do anything.

Okay, that's true too. But they ain't so you basically saying they ain't do shit. Just like they might even do shit back there. And what you hollering about Miami's culture there?

I don't think so. Can't it? He's saying anything about Pat Riley? At the end of the day, all everything that you're spewing is literally a port of potty.

Because what I'm talking about is facts. The fact of the matter is the Miami heat have been a winning organization from the moment Pat Riley step foot in the door and they have been and they have sustained success. And obviously you, especially in the NBA, you cannot win without talent. You cannot win the void of talent.

You need God. You need more than one guy. And the beauty and the genius of Pat Riley is he squeezes every single ounce of everything that got Jimmy as the perfect culture guy there. Jimmy is not the best player on a championship team.

Or else they would have won a championship. I mean, but they ran into LeBron and he though, I mean, we're going to discount that and Bam was hurt and his guys were so let's say that the heat of full strength. That shit might go seven games. If everyone's healthy going drive, you got a plantar tear.

Hey, you know what? Uh, uh, LeBron could have had more championships against the goal. They say Warriors if his second best player wasn't deli. And that's a fact.

But that's, but look at the end of the day, all you can do is play the people that are there to play and we after the fact, judge it on what it is. But here's what I'm saying though. Here's what I'm saying though. This is what I'm saying.

When it comes to Jimmy, I feel like you're discounting just how much that offense relies on him to get his buckets. There's no. Stop. Stop.

You're reacting. You're reacting. I just need to look at it. When it comes to Jimmy, bro, if he doesn't get 40 points, that offense doesn't generate much.

That like their office is not that good. Like everything is pin downs. Everything is screens. Everything is picking a role.

That shit doesn't can only do so much in the playoffs. You need a guy to go iso. You need a guy that can go off script and get a bucket. Look at what step is doing.

Look at what Jason's doing. So when you don't have Jimmy getting 40 points at night and Tyler Harrow is disappearing, who's going to be stepping up? Gabriel Vincent, he has to get screened for. He has to get a move.

The ball has to move to him. Jimmy's the only guy that can get his own shot on that whole team besides Harrow and Harrow has to exert so much energy every night that you can't count on that. So if he's an a team that actually has other guys that can do something for him, Jimmy might even look better than what he is. Look, I think Jimmy and I'm stuck to my guns with this.

He is a number two or number three guy on a championship team. That's what he is. He's a better version of Chris Middleton. He's a tougher Chris Middleton.

That's what he is. That's what he is. That's what he is. That's what he is.

That's what he is. When you hear that. He's a tough guy. He's a more mentally tougher.

I'm saying that's the only comparison you got is Chris Middleton. Yes. Wow. Chris Middleton in my opinion.

Maybe outside of Devin Booker is the best secondary score. And the reason why I use Chris Middleton is because look at Chris Middleton's averages. What does Jimmy's brother average? 18 22.

Yeah, 21 in James. Right at 20. Like his entire career. Jimmy Bullard is a 20 point a game score.

The number one option on championship team got to get you 25 to 26. He got you 40. I mean, he got you the first scene. I mean, this is the last thing I feel like.

So wait, hold on. So the first team in the East and their record, is that not a byproduct of the team versus just one guy because they did the harps went 63 some of my games and then fucking Cleveland cash. They have so many. So we're talking to team that have four all songs that have to be bothered.

But doesn't that but doesn't that hold on. Just give me this. Hold on. Hold on.

Hold on. People just break by the good point. But I feel like that doesn't that doesn't negate what you just said that if a team does really well, that's a whole team concept. Right.

But when you get to the playoffs, that team concept obviously revolves around, you have to have one or two guys and that team concept elevates every time this one person plays in these 16 games. So it's like, you're talking about Miami. He coaches. You know what I mean?

So he elevates. So do the regular season matter or does it not? Yes. I picked them.

I got them. I got them. And I could be wrong. I need to go back and look at them.

I don't think you did an important story. Does it matter? Yeah. Does it matter?

Are you talking about during the regular season? So does the regular season matter? Does it matter? Why does it matter if you're.

I mean, that's like saying you do a superstar in the playoffs regular season. You play. Okay. But are so hard.

So if I help. You can. If I help my team get to the first seed and then I turn up in the playoffs to I don't understand what's not clicking here. That's great.

But they don't make you a superstar. So what does make you so sorry if you ever 30 and losing the first round like I don't understand. Let me ask you because those people are superstars is James Harden not considered superstar. This man is strong every year in the playoff every single year.

And I would argue that I would argue that too. But yeah, what is your point? My point is is that you're saying that the regular season don't matter but a superstar James Harden folds every playoff. He's still considered a superstar.

And I would argue that but most of the players. Let's take away the last two years. Let's take away the last two years. Is he still not a superstar and he's still not folded.

See, he's not a superstar and not old multiple times in the playoffs. I really I really don't like the word folded on either of those guys. He's holding multiple times. You and I like the sitting in the dark but it is what it is.

I don't know if the history shows so they're gonna be folded. They're they're gonna be. They're career. They're the last few years.

Oh, who play off career. They're hoping. What's he picked? He got some team.

No, no, some teams. Okay. And he got past the negative. Every team Jimmy Butler's been on every whole.

Was supposed to get back. Then he upset the Spurs or something. What team did they give? There was a top two top three team in the West.

What are you talking about? Okay. He got past Spurs. It was the hornets.

Okay. I just okay. I just want to keep the conversation. I want to keep the conversation right where it is because Jimmy Butler on every team he's been on.

They win every single team and he goes to Minnesota. They get to the playoffs. The Sixers. We're a bouncer way from goes to the season.

He's a conference finals. He will he put that team on his back while in B and Ben Simmons in multiple games. He's a superstar. He's a superstar.

And then now he's in Miami gets first seed. I have a damn near 39 points. I do. What do you really want from him besides just gawdy stats and the regular season that don't mean shit.

You want to be a yogi? That's cool. What the fuck does that mean? Look, you know what that means?

You know what the regular season means? It means Hall of Fame. That's what that means. You know why?

Because you know who's not going to be there? Robert Horry. Rings big playoff moments. Do you think Jimmy's not a Hall of Fame?

He might not make it. He might not make it. He might not make it. The finals that they win the series makes it a final season.

Or is he still not making it to the finals is a one's going to get him to the hall of fame. Even though he got passed where the Hall of Fame is about numbers. Where does Jimmy rank in the all time list of scores? Steel blocks.

Where is he? Amongst the spirit? Is he top 10? Is he top 20?

Where is he? That's what gets you to the Hall of Fame. So all of this bullshit that y'all talking about that the regular season no matter it matters for seating. You would rather be number one or number two the number eight and half the fucking play in against number nine and number ten.

Right. Look, he want to fucking interrupt me when I'm breaking down your whole fucking point. Like at the end of the day, the regular season matter. It matters for career.

It matters. It matters to your money. Right. Because the more stats you accumulate in the regular season, the bigger paycheck you get.

Oh, and also if you make an all NBA team whether it's first or second, you make more money. Right. If you make an all star team that's based off of the regular season, you get incensed in your contract. Right.

So get the fuck out of here with the notion that the regular season does not matter. So the ring. I'm talking about money. I'm talking about superstars.

That's where they're made. It just feels like nobody really gave a fuck about the playoffs or where you become a household name. But you could be a superstar before that. LeBron was a superstar before he made the playoffs.

You just talked about how the Hawks won. How many games, 60 games in regular season and what they doing to play off? Did that matter? Does Atlanta go up and down the street about that season?

No, no expectation. Last year, nobody expected for the Atlanta Hawks to even be what they were able to become. Therefore, Trey Young's status is elevate. And now because there's a certain level of expectation, his status is decline because now we expect that.

We know what you can do. We expect them to do the season. I expected them to. Okay.

Prime example. We see a Luca right down three. Luca had one back game. They lost that and he came back and had two monster game.

Are they losing because of Luca or what he's missing to a better team. So in my opinion, the same thing I said about the Atlanta Hawks, you can't lose and Trey Young play bad every fucking game. He played one good game. I'm talking about how far like how far did you expect him to go this year?

At least like around the beginning of the season. They should have made that year to the East of Carpis Prigles beginning of the season because of what they did last year. Now you have a certain level of expectation. And then when Trey played against Miami Heat, I understand.

I told two things he got to get better. Shot selection. Obviously, but he got to get stronger and he got to play off the ball a little bit. Luca's bad game.

It's a bad game. He's back to back 40. They're not losing. I don't know if you got something to say about this.

Please man. I think I'm going to say it's just so funny. I feel like the same thing that you I feel like the same thing that we penalized in Jimmy Butler for is what we're giving Luca credit for. It's just I don't know.

But it's just a little bit. It's just a little bit. It's just a little bit. It's just a little bit.

We're not losing anything we just crucify Jimmy Butler for lack team or all that shit. Whatever it is. We're just giving Luca credit for all the empty stats in the 4th. I'm not here in that shit.

But regardless, they're pretty fucking empty. They look pretty empty. What does it mean if you took the L though? Like this is what I'm saying.

These flog matches. I'm not a metric so bro. If you beat my ass and give me two black eyes, I don't mean shit if I get you a scratch. Maybe you beat the shadowing.

It doesn't matter. You beat the fuck out of me bro. Like I'm on the ground. I'm fucking bleeding.

No it doesn't matter. Oh yeah. I hit him one time. It took a loss.

So ass and gave you two black eyes, but if I'm all the way scratched up, I was shit that I was. No nigga, I'm on the ground and the fucking EMTs carry me off. No, you walking home. Like no, that's what's happening.

It's not the same thing. It's not what's happening. And this is what I'm seeing. Look at throwing up little bullshit threes of the Latin.

No, but what I'm doing is all I recall is during the season, we asked this very question, well Miami is Miami for real. And all of us say, oh well, you know, and I'm so well, not me, but I remember everyone on this panel and correct me if I'm wrong and say, well we don't believe Miami because that'll look real. But when Jimmy Butler does what the fuck he's doing now is a well, you know, put fear in nobody's heart. Y'all that's like that's so much gold.

I took up mine. No you did. No you did. No you did.

Go back and look at the tape. I took up mine. I didn't know they won. You didn't know they won.

You didn't know they won. I took up one no dinner. No you didn't. I was chatting.

I was chatting. Come through. Please come through. I know I took up all.

I did. I did. Because I was like, they never won. I was like, I can do it.

I know I'm going to do it well. I'm on that panel. And I'm still there by myself. That's okay.

I'm going to do it. I'm sitting at the table. I'm boarding like I've always maintained that. I think Jimmy, literally Jimmy is the barometer between the quarters, the whole fucking damn four day.

I'm saying. And it's Jimmy. And it's Jimmy. He's the difference in this shit.

This is the way they play the game. He was the first. The last game they won. Jimmy.

How is it? Jimmy? How is it? Jimmy?

How is it? Jimmy? How is it? Jimmy?

He's the barometer. He's the barometer. What does he do for the team? Does he push this team forward?

Yes. Significantly? No. He moves on forward but not significantly.

Let me ask this question. You take Luca off the match and you take Jimmy off the heat. Who has a better squad? Who's going to win more games?

I think it's a watch. I think it's a watch. I think it's a hell of a hit. Because I said, do we not just see Dallas win two out of three games in a playoff series?
