 What's the world y'all welcome back to the recap now if you follow me on Twitter This is probably surprised to you because I did mention that I was done I had no energy, but guess what that second burst of energy is here I watched a lot of basketball and I'm here to talk about it leave a like subscribe if you are new this should go without saying But I only talk about the games that I watch Yeah, I do read the comment section people like Kenny you didn't talk about this game That's because I didn't watch it and personally I don't feel confident talking about things that I didn't watch So let's let's do this. Let's do this thing. I always try to experiment with these titles with the thumbnails of things We did it when the Utah Jazz at first started their hot streak I had them in the title and the thumbnail and guess what that video was one of the worst videos on this channel But I don't even care at this point I've been waiting for the perfect moment to talk about she gives Alexander and he is the top of today's show because today a Career night now if you've been a fan of mine, you know that I have been on a she gives Alexander bandwagon Says literally his first summer league game I don't watch college basketball So I know people that have been fans of him before that but when I watched him for the very first time of Summer League, I have attached myself to him because I saw what I saw and I was like this guy is going to be amazing in the NBA One thing that I feel like a lot of incoming rookies struggle with especially at the guard position is their ability to pace and this man She gives Alexander will not speed up for anybody He will not slow down for anybody everything that he does is on his own pace He really turns the ball over really makes mistakes on the basketball court. He's high IQ man Those are the type of guards. I really like and today was one of those days where he was unstoppable Now what I was excited to do yesterday and today was try to figure out the players that were on the NBA all-star Snub bliss and see how they would react to their first game back because I know that's built up anger on some of these dudes and she was like Unofficially a snub because he does have the counting stats and everything to be in the conversations and when the final the final voting comes out I wouldn't be surprised if some coaches did want him in the all-star game because he has been that good this season today the best player on the court by Far times where he was literally unguardable and like I mentioned he plays at his own pace His jump shot is the one of those super fast ones But guess what you can't do anything about it when he's trying to pull up for it So I've set this from the very first couple games of the season I am so jealous of some of the stuff that okay See is done with like the Shagyo's Alexander trade and him blossoming to where he is now And of course we got to talk about Lou Dort because honestly the way Shagyo just Alexander was playing today He could have ended with 55 he could have ended with 60 But it was actually dirt that man dirt in the fourth quarter taking over and then eventually hitting the last shot Now this is a very interesting games you know watch and I wouldn't expect a lot of people to because it's a spurs And it okay sue who's not again not one of those contending type teams But this was fun Patty Mills man Patty Mills had the most brain fart move of the entire game The man had a double dribble that led to eventually the Lou the Lou door three But what was surprising to me is that Patty Mills got the call in this one Especially because the John Tay Murray was the guy that was taken over for the spurs Patty Mills They hit a few shots in the fourth quarter But I thought it was gonna go to the hot hand and at that point it was the John Tay Murray now personally I came into this game a little bit late, and I was like man is the Marcus all just not back from injury He's back from injury, but he's coming off the bench So he is slowly sliding in his career, and I don't know the next step is for him They was actually starting Lucas Shamanich yes, I said it right for the first time in my life Um, he was starting and I mean the spurs are also a decent team and in the playoff hunt as well But it's a game where we have to shout out say give us Alexander We have to shout out Lou door my personal collection of say gives Alexander cars is about about yay high It's it's a lot of them. Okay. The next game. I want to talk about is the Miami heat versus the Toronto Raptors These are two teams Overall when you look at the standings are struggling teams two of the teams that we consider contenders last season Still trying to find their footing and the Miami heat are in the process of doing that now I'm not saying that the Raptors aren't because they just went on their own little win streak before this I think they had a back-to-back and Cal Laurie was his first game back So both teams are slowly trying to start Find their footing and today the Miami heat end up on I think four game win streak eight of their last 11 So they're making it happen now This is what we love about a player like Jimmy baller There are not many players in the league that can literally take over a game in a fourth quarter And today that was Jimmy if I'm not mistaken He scored like scored or an assistant on 14 of the last 16 points in this game Just literally being the dominant player that he could be and and sometimes I think about the trade with the bulls They got a Zach Levine and Laurie marketing And I still think about what could have been of jimmy butler was here We had a competent front office to build around him because we gave up on him Because we didn't see another step for him and well, we were wrong and I say we like I was in the front Office fire guard packs. It's already been done. But they gave up on him because they thought at 28 years old I think he was when the trade happened. That was it. That was all what he was is what he was and that was obviously not true And he turned into a guy that can legitimately take over games I was surprised at the way nick nurse kind of coached down the line We're like some of the lineups he ran we're like pass out on the bench for Crunch time, but then you realize I went back to look at the box score from yesterday He played like almost 50 minutes yesterday He was like, you know what? Maybe he deserved a little a little time off But somebody else was on the bench late in this game too Oh, chris bouchet who's having a big a good game too was on the bench And they went with this small ball lineup in the Miami heat took advantage of that and it led to a jimmy butler When I did not watch all of cavaliers versus rockets, but the rockets continued to skid and jared alan dominating second game in a row Dominant performance. Yes, I didn't do a call game episode But I think lemar steven's call game would have done so the um the sexland Cleveland cavaliers thing Starting to turn back up just a little bit. I do want to go back though Just some of the first games of the day where was the ellenah hogs versus the boston seltsx Um yesterday video we mentioned how a lot of people were upset about jason's hate him and jalen brown Make it into the all-star game when the seltsx were sub 500 and where they lost another game to a team That was also struggling led by gala nari the rooster really turning up and not only that he hit I think it was nine of 10 threes nine of 11 threes or whatever He was hitting some of the things from the logo three seconds four seconds into the side clock He was just feeling it and this is a big game for him because pretty much for the entire season He had been struggling this could be that breakout game that they really want him to To get him to the production that they paid him to I don't know it could happen Um, but a big win for the ellenah hogs tray young bounce back was just a win And honestly if you're if you're asking tray young I think he probably prioritized to win more than the all-star appearance And I and I think him getting more wins or probably get him a little bit more respect amongst the coaches and around the league But the boss is seltsx man. It is very very rough. No kema walker again Marcus smart being out has been the the biggest detriment to this team I mentioned this last time we were talking about the boss and seltsx walls Who are like jason's hate him and jalen brown don't really play together And and jason's hate him is a tough shot taker and a tough shot maker But when he's not making those tough shots It seems like empty possessions where you could have got way better looks And today was one of those days where it's like man He would dribble the ball for a few seconds and hoist up a shot And you like you can't really complain because he isn't all star He's made that shot before but maybe you want to get a better look especially in the game like tonight It just overall was really bad And I know boston seltsx fans are going through it Especially we consider the expectations of this team coming into the season and where they are right now If I am not mistaken the chicago bulls have a better record or higher in the standings Than the boston seltsx Bulls Let's get it out of the way It's been a long time since I've had hope y'all I feel like I feel like Hawkeye don't give me don't give me that hope man Because for the last couple of seasons i've been able to watch basketball objectively because my bulls didn't matter And now we kind of matter because we're fighting for a playoff spot So i'm looking at some of the other teams above us in the eastern conference kind of low key praying for their downfall So my bulls can get up there today was the most um the weirdest game I mean at the end of the day when the bulls don't take care of the ball They end up being bad and today they look bad against one of the worst teams in the league I think technically the worst team in the league record wise the most Dumb over time of all time. I'm not a guy that again. They get planes about reffing But today Go rewatch the last minute of bulls versus timbles And I mean like in regulation and you come back to tell me what you think about their reffing Um, I'm just happy that we ended up pulling it out and over time because if we would have lost this game I kind of would have been hot about it. You know what I'm saying? Anthony Edwards does this thing Talk about the symbols now Anthony Edwards does this thing We're like he'll have a couple big moments amongst the game And then you look at the box score and and I feel like Nate Duncan here You look at the box you're gonna be like, oh snap this man Actually is seven for 20 And I think in the last five or six games she's shooting like 30 from the field is what the the guys on the chicago bulls broadcast We're talking about so you'll have to highlight so you to watch it not be dunk But then uh, he's just not playing well man, and that turned into nate ducking in one week I don't really know um carthony towns I mean this team is a team that has lost a lot of games by this much and with the new coaching chains Maybe those some of those losses turn into wins, but right now it hasn't really been that Um, shout out to the bulls man. Are they giving me hope maybe next game la mellow ball versus the phoenix suns There was a point in this game where it was it was all tied up, right? And I was in my mind I was like this chris paul's moment And I even think my boy rusty buck is sweeter is chris paul time because I think that's what everybody think And when it's late in the fourth quarter tie game you expect it to be chris paul to to really make those moves, right? Well, it was the rookie It was la mellow ball literally taking over the fourth quarter and talking And and staring people down Like we said before this man is the real deal and it's cool to see malik monk continue to get minutes Earning those minutes and playing very well in those minutes the hornets are fun team We've said it over and over again when you have moments where la mellow ball is literally taking over games Is hard not to say that it's most watched tv. I'm not tripping about the sun's loss. They didn't even they just didn't play well They didn't protect the ball Some of the shots are very lazy So I'm not really tripping about that But the hornets big time win And I think those are all the games I really watched I tried to be invested in jazz versus lakers But it being a blowout after the what halfway through the second quarter I was like no I can't really do it Um, but lebron if let me see how many minutes lebron ended up playing 28 minutes Which is good because they were getting blown out and y'all know lebron is leading the league in minutes this month So good good thing for him to not end up getting a ton a ton of minutes I guess bad that they end up losing the game, but if you're a lakers fan You're probably chilling at the end of the day just because Anthony Anthony davis will be back Eventually and immediately you're back to a title contender I wouldn't look at some of these losses because you're going to lose a decent amount of games to Anthony davis Comes back because he's such a big part of your team I wouldn't look at these losses and try to gauge at how talented the team is Um because anthony davis does play that big of a part And then that's those are all the games I actually watched I really wanted to tune into pacers versus warriors because like I mentioned, uh the snub list And the matzabona said a good stat line here I will have to go back and rewatch this because more than the matzabona stat line I need to see how the hell the warriors won a game when they shot 20% from 3 as a team that shoots 3s How did drake my grain scored double digits today? That doesn't happen in 2021 today I did so I got to rewatch those and I've been trying to keep up with uh, james wiseman's play Since he's come back so I do definitely need to rewatch that game tonight And that's all I got guys Uh, let me know what you think today. The shaggy of solid santa love is real And I guarantee you follow me on twitter tomorrow morning I will wake up and I know that it's going to be a 10 of 10 video Which means that out of the last 10 episodes of this show we have uploaded Today's episode is going to be the worst viewed because I'm titling about shaggy of solid santa But I don't even care.
