 What's the word y'all welcome back to a recap I was gone away from work I was in California shooting a lot of stuff that y'all will see soon And it's just like terrible terrible timing now understand I probably shouldn't be leaving the offices during the playoffs, but hey what money calls you got you gotta go You know I'm saying but it just so happened the week that I was going was like the most entertaining week We had like Kevin around put up a masterclass in game number five putting up 49 points And I want to film a video about it, but I'm not home Terrence Mann has the greatest game of his whole lifetime to win a series And I'm not home to talk about it and those are just some of the on course stuff off the court We a Kimba Walker getting traded. We have coach in Vegas. He's the Dallas Mavericks The whole organization is on fire right now, and I will be talking about those things eventually But today I want to focus on this game seven because we haven't been walking going into Brooklyn and they win No tea, you know game sevens can be hit or miss obviously every NBA fan up there loves a game seven unless You're a fan of the team that's involved because the anxiety isn't all time I but everybody else loves a good game seven But I feel like I don't got the numbers in a back and up y'all know we don't look at numbers on the recap I don't I don't care that much, but I feel like a lot of game sevens Don't live up to the actual hype like even earlier in this playoff run We had Dallas versus the Clippers and that was a good game for like three quarters And then the Clippers pulled away and we didn't have like that super super intensity This one was that Greatest game of the season possibly we had Kevin DeRent dropping 48 Yanis showcasing why he is a two-time MVP I'm not I'm not except. I don't want to accept any honest slender, bro. I've been on this island, bro Understand he's not the guy that's gonna take the game winning three like Kevin DeRent will be able to do You know, that's why he has other teammates, but this guy dominated He had a couple stretches where like he was super fatigued and we're gonna talk about fatigue because at the end of the day There are two things that really determine the series and fatigue was one of them He was fatigued throughout this one You would love to see him guard Kevin DeRent sometime, you know sometime especially Kevin DeRent putting up 49 and game seven and 48 tonight you would love to see that but you didn't you know I'm saying but overall Yanis was amazing. He didn't hit the game winning shot He didn't hit the icing on the cake like cast money Chris did but he was clutch He was amazing tonight. So stop it. You know, I'm saying it's respect the greatness of these players, bro And I'm always gonna be on that. That's where Yanis. That's what Kevin a rant That's what all of the superstar players in the league man because we cannot take these for granted because like like Overall careers are short in the grand scheme of things. You know I'm saying so you got to respect these things But let's talk about the Brooklyn that's here because Kevin a rant game number five game number five puts up a 48 minute game 48 minute game gave us an amazing performance one of the greatest individual performance I've seen in a very very long time, especially when it comes to playoff performances amazing game number six He still play heavy minutes But you have to play every second of the game because Milwaukee won that one conventionally, right? And then we get to this game and it is a game seven. So Steve Nass is like, hey, I don't trust nobody else I don't trust nobody more than I trust Kevin or more than I trust James Harden on one leg So these guys got to play James Harden was one second away from playing the entire game And that was like an inbound play where Nicholas Klaxon came in and guard the inbounder But like you don't trust nobody more than that and then he goes into the fourth quarter He hits one of the craziest shots to send it to overtime Well, if this man was a size 15 and a half instead of a size 16 They're in a conference finals right now, but his toe is on the line cool And I'm watching this game and I'm being honest I don't care who actually wins the game But I'm pulling for the Milwaukee Bucks because I want the smaller market I want the organic team to have some type of I just think it's better for the league that way You know I'm saying if the Brooklyn that's what one is game. I'm not punching the walls I'm not mad or anything because they're players on this team to absolutely love But I was rooting for the Milwaukee Bucks. It's a little bit more, right? So they go to overtime and in my mind after what just happened coach coach bud Just has a out of time outplayed when they have two and a half seconds on a shot clock and he draws up I don't even know and Brick Lopez has a JR Smith moment and I'm like this game is over That's all the momentum swinging and then Kevin right to set the shot to send it over time I thought this game is completely over but shout out to again the Bucks weather in the storm But the Brooklyn that's at the end of the day was they were fatigued as a team Kevin right shoots We're over six and overtime. He scores like two total poor one for six and two total points and the team scored two points They were fatigued. They were really really fatigued out there and they had they finished with zero bench production I understand as a collective as a bench. They had 18 minutes of Jeff Green who had an amazing game five didn't do anything But commit three fouls Landry Shami was out there doing some cardio for seven minutes and then a Nicholas Klax at the one second on the end bounds and Kevin a rank couldn't do it all man. James Harden is playing on one leg And I know he ended up with ten free thousand seven of those were in the first quarter So he kind of cooled down there, but like This is crazy to say but when James Harden was attempting shots I was looking at it like I'm okay with that right now because since he's come back from his injury We know he's not a hundred percent He hasn't shot the ball well at all like he has had good moments being being a threat James Harden being on the court himself Is a threat you have to guard it whether he has one leg or not But like as I'm watching these games I'm like him taking that normal step back that he took for the last decade I'm cool with that because he ain't got his legs under him You know I'm saying so you you don't really worry about that Bruce Brown had an amazing performance I'm giving them all the credit my guy Nick made a whole video about the type Bruce Brown's the type of guy to every championship team needs He almost did the thing like like late in his game They had so many offensive rebounds and a lot of that was Bruce Brown. He had a Joe Harris offensive rebound But Joe Harris regular season Greatest three-point shooter in the league like not even close marksmen This series God awful God awful and it's just one of those things man Because you can't take him out of the game because he is so much of a threat you have to guard him So Steve Nash is trusting in his guy because we know This guy is one of the greatest shooters in the league, right? So it's like this is weird thing here Blake Griffin had a solid game, but it just wasn't enough We get to overtime cast so many Chris hit some shots Joe how they didn't have not did not have a good series at all offensively But he had moments in that fourth quarter I think he ended up with like eight or ten points in a fourth quarter alone and that was absolutely huge You could credit his defense or some of the James Harden things and I swear to you, bro I made a tweet like man if they end up losing this game coach bud You got to walk home, bro And somebody showed a screenshot walking from Brooklyn to Milwaukee is like a 10-day thing He would have had to do that, bro Because I'm sorry like I understand in the conference fighters now This is the best they've been you know I'm saying they always have been a second round exit They got to the conference fighters, which is amazing It's big, but I can't help but to look at the way coach bud is coaching this team Like bro, they can be so much better How do you get a timeout late in the game? Two points something seconds on the shot clock a draw up the play you did now Maybe that was Brooke Lopez is not knowing the situation But like if you look at that play they had two people cut and torch the ball in the inbounder I don't know what he's doing there. I don't know what he's doing there And of course, I don't know if I mentioned this earlier I would have loved to see Yannis get some type of possessions on Kevin Arrant I guess I mean it would have been better if they it got that way, but they ended up winning this game Yannis amazing PJ Tucker hitting three threes for PJ Tucker if he's a Tucker's giving you three threes Give him a W. Give the team a W because like there are some games this man PJ Tucker just playing great defense Don't get me wrong, but he's over two over one zero side attempt So when you get a three three point game from him, that's really really good other than the debacle from from Brooke Lopez I think he played a solid game and Chris didn't have a great game But he made timely timely buckets and the only bench points we had in this entire game was Pat Conniton who had three threes which were big because I mean you had some foul trouble from like PJ Tucker Juhade was in some foul trouble. So the 23 minutes from Pat Conniton were really big for the team man I'm happy for the Bucks. It's not over Everybody would say the job's not finished. It's a fact jobs not finished, you know They didn't they don't want to just be a conference finalists They want to win it all and then tomorrow we'll find out who they're going against and then we'll decide if they're the favorite If they're gonna win this and then I want coach bud out of there They win the championship. There's no way they fire coach bud They might not even fire coach bud if they lose in the next round because hey, we made it to the conference finals When it's a get eliminated one of my favorite things to do is to look at their team and be like, okay What's next? Okay, what's next for the Brooklyn nuts? Honestly, I don't know. I don't know if I mentioned this earlier But if James Hard is healthy Carrie Irvin doesn't mess up his ankle. They win this series Easily, you know, I'm saying let's be honest with each other shout out to the Bucks You're in a conference finals right now, but if it was for injuries, you're in a you're in a conference finals right now So when you're looking at this roster, what do they need? They I think they need a legitimate big they can rebound the ball Bros Brown can't be your best rebounder every game every game and guys like Deandre Jordan I think it was Klaxon had good moments throughout the playoffs not necessarily in this series But throughout the playoffs he played pretty solidly I think they need to figure that out and Well, they need to get healthy They need to figure out the special then with the situation because he is a free agent as well I've been seeing things that people throwing him in trace to get another piece or you just keep him on the team just in case James Hardy gets injured again or just in case Carrie Irvin get injured injured again Because you remember when the James Harden trade went down One of the reasons you do that is for Carrie Irvin insurance when they traded for James Harden This is right after Carrie Irvin and take a little hiatus from the team. I mean some people like he's gonna retire We know he wasn't gonna retire but like Carrie Irvin has some injury history We want to go all in so we bring in James Harden It's just like crazy timing that James Harden who had been an Iron Man for the past half a decade ends up getting injured here You know I'm saying so figure out the special then with the thing I think you you're gonna be able to sign players that are trying to ring chase that want to go out there and get a Championship so like I don't I don't really know what the center market look like but you're gonna sign somebody for the Lo it's a fact. They'll be gonna be like, ah You're gonna brick and that's but it's crazy how things can happen in the VA Feels like early season after the James Harden trade everybody pence within Lakers everybody pencil then Brooklyn Nets and again A lot of this is due to injury and LeBron went on this whole little rent on Twitter about the short and off-season And how that has impacted the league and and I didn't agree with everything LeBron said But I think he's onto something. He's definitely honest something I think he said like eight all-stars is are gonna miss some time in the playoffs That hasn't happened before You know that hasn't happened before so if you're a Brooklyn Nets fan Obviously, it sucks to lose in a second round when you have a team of KD Kyrie and James Harden But you're about to get a lot of rest the season starts at the regular time next year So Kevin a rent is gonna have another year of off-season behind cuz you remember he's just coming off an injury Another off-season under him James Harden. I don't expect James Harden to have a major injury again Again, he has been an Ironman throughout his entire career with these clubbing or not And then carry over it's kind of a wild car when it comes to this injury But that's the reason you have so many start players is because of that. So let me know what y'all think about this game I feel like I'm missing missing some things. I should have talked about in this one, but hey We got another game seven tomorrow. It's already been confirmed that Chris Paul is not playing game one Kawhi didn't travel for the first two games in a series So I don't know what's happening in Phoenix versus Clips. Y'all know who I'm rooting for But again, I don't really care too much. Y'all know who I'm rooting for Appreciate y'all. I'll be back tomorrow. It's another game seven. I gotta talk about the other game seven. Yes, and so see you tomorrow
