 What's the word y'all welcome back to call game Kenny for real whatever you want to call it today We had a full slate of games and I watched a lot of the games and there's not one thing I could really take away as far as like usually there's a team or a player I want to talk about extensively at the top of the show. That's the thumbnail That's the title by the boom by the bam We get out there with the video and I know a lot of y'all don't care about the type of stuff But as we try to continue to build this this channel the title and the thumbnail are super important So hopefully we'll be rambling about some of the games We'll really break down what the title of this video is leave a like subscribe. Let's get into the games for today I'm just gonna go on the order that I see it in the first game. I see on the top of here It's actually a postpone game spurs versus pelicans Still weird to have games postpone like this man, and this was like a late scratch postpone But anyway, let's get to the actual basketball being played the 76ers lost to the pistons. I'm gonna say it I lost like this is an excusable It does make the Joel and beat MVP case a little bit stronger that the team is oh and for without him in a lineup But I think two of those losses came to the Detroit pistons and Detroit pistons are the worst team in basketball now I know the pistons are better than probably what their record says But record-wise they are still the worst team in basketball and the 76ers lose. I Listen old Joel and beat of course He's their MVP candidate, but they're still enough on this roster to be able to beat the Detroit pistons And you want to know what? We got to talk about Ben Simmons the last episode we talked about how two games ago I think he had 12 points in the fourth quarter He was amazing and then the game after that he dropped 20 We're like, okay Ben Simmons is ramping it up and trying to get back to that all NBA level a game like this is what what kills me about Ben Simmons y'all know I'm a fan of Ben Simmons to have a guy of his size be able to control offense play an elite and I mean elite level defense is Very special But some of the other things that bother me about Ben Simmons play and today It was showcased to the full extent when Joel and beat is not in the lineup That is like 20 plus shots to be distributed to the rest of the team And you would hope your on your other all NBA player would take over some of those shots But Ben Simmons doesn't do that like my guy Pierre who's a co-host of the podcast that I host He has this this shirt and there's this hashtag. He's been using for years This hashtag build with Ben which is like if if he was the general manager of the 76ers And he had to pick whether or not he wanted to build his team around Ben Simmons or build this team around Joel and beat He would pick Ben Simmons and games like this make it super super hard now understand without Joel and beat the roster It's not perfectly constructed for a Ben Simmons team, but let's be honest No player in NBA history really has a team that is perfectly Constructed to their talents so a game like this when you have an all NBA player with your MVP candidate being out You're the number two option But today you should be number one and Ben Simmons doesn't do those type of things enough We know he could bro. There's no reason there's nobody on the Detroit pisses That I believe would be able to stop Ben Simmons if he wanted to burrow his way to the basket Like like everybody's saying like he has the ability to be Yannis going to the rim Sure, we can see that what two three times a game But in order for him to be like Yannis in order for him to be like LeBron going to the rim Those dudes do it 20 times a game and Ben Simmons doesn't do those type of things You'd want Ben Simmons to take over the cyber games, you know instead of those 20 shots going to Ben A lot of them went to Tobias and he had a good game today. Don't get me wrong You know, Tony Bradley coming off the bench got a lot of those shots on Tyries maxing never afraid to shoot the side That's why I like him a lot a lot of shots went to the other guys instead of Ben Simmons a big win for the Detroit piss It's in a game where Jeremy Grand Wayne, Elick said in the line right felt unstoppable So the 76 defense wasn't great either today But again, I don't want to solely say like this losses on Ben Simmons because it's far from the truth But I hope people at home understand what I'm trying to say We're like you have another all-star caliber player like teams with two all-stars think about them if All-star one is out. I can usually expect all-star two to play better Maybe not play better but to try to take over that load and they and Ben Simmons doesn't do that Like if Yannis is sitting out Chris Middleton's probably getting ten more shots and vice-in-vice versa That's just the way it is But it doesn't really work like that for the 76ers I don't know and that kind of scares me as far as like 76 as a contender because the number two option Doesn't really feel like the number two option I guess technically he's not that how can you be an all-in-a player but not the number two option cuz let's Realistically Tobias Harris is number two option offensively It's a very very weird situation affiliate. I still do like the team a lot and Joel and B as an MVP candidate I mean again, they got stronger with this one next game is a Raptors versus the Pacers Pacers can't catch a break with us a bonus going out with the knee-knocking injury And I know I wanted to talk about this game from yesterday because they had the good old back to back scenarios here in the game Well, Oji on a nobie had 30 So they clamped up some bonus great defensive players from Chris Boucher and all of that in the Toronto Raptors were starting to get back On point they were five and one in their last six before tonight Which makes them five and two in their last seven, which is not bad like Toronto Raptors are gonna be a playoff team I will be super super surprised if they're not one of the top eight teams in a me I mean, I'm not even talking about playing they should be top eight And they're slowly getting back to that and Pascal still hasn't played in the last couple But good to see Oji on a nobie doing Oji on a nobie type things I mean the way he has progressed and I'm gonna say the same thing about Jalen Brown We talk about the Celtics a little bit later the way he has progressed every single year has been incredible now this game He wasn't necessarily great, but a 30-point game and the win was amazing But the game that I owe the person I want to talk about for the Indiana Pacers tonight Of course Malcolm Bronx out to press having a bounce back game because yesterday he wasn't good at all But I mean a 36 9 and 7 game is ridiculous, but I want to talk about Miles Turner man if Miles Turner ain't turning into the perfect Prototypical whatever you need coach. I got you player So bonus goes out of the injury and instead of Miles Turner sitting at the three-point line He was down low grub and that's one of the biggest problems with the Toronto Raptors They don't have adequate defensive centers, but man Miles Turner was out there today It was so weird to see because I would never imagine a game where Miles Turner put up a 20 and 10 and Didn't attempt a three-point shot. He was getting to the basket. He was getting fouled and he was doing Miles Turner type Oh, well, this is not even Miles Turner type things. These is this is at a character But like I say it whatever you need coach. I got you is what it feels like he he brings to the table And that's great It's cool to see Jeremy lay him back on the court and in these few games He has been here. He's been really really good and that's very promising for him coming back from such a big injury the next game We had Gordon Hayward have another big game, but instead it was spoiled by Nick Busevich Gordon Hayward had though what 40 point and plus a game winner a couple nights ago against the magic But the magic bounce back getting them an eight and ten Woosevich has been so So good this season He is shooting a ridiculous clip from the three-point line this year I've talked to some Orlando magic fans face to face well not face to face because you know Social distancing but talk to some Orlando magic fans and a lot of them one and you know What is a fade for Kate is what I've been seeing a lot Woosevich won't allow that to happen, bro He's been too good and to see Cole Anthony come out and have his best scoring night as a NBA player with is great But I don't know how much love Woosevich will get throughout the course of the season But he deserves a may a ton of love today Especially in the game where like Aaron Gordon wasn't necessarily good as far as scoring the ball goes That man is incredible, bro I don't know what he's shooting from a three-point line, but I tell you whenever he's taking a shot I'm assuming it's going in because teams just allow him to shoot it And maybe one day people will start closing out on them, but until they do he's gonna knock down a high percentage of it Oh, let's talk about the nets Today a game like this against the heat again the heat are beat up Still missing Jimmy still missing Tyler here will still miss a AB Bradley They're beat up but a game like tonight is the reason why the Brooklyn Nets are Super super scared first of all they play defense of the first time as a court, which is amazing again Miami Heat out with a lot of stuff But they play defense as as a team and then in a game where Kevin Arant struggled in a game with Kari Irvin struggled They still had a third start to take over the game. That's what makes them scary James Harden didn't do much as far as like scoring the ball in the first three quarters But when they needed him the most he took it over That's what makes him scary. And then this is the first game where they play really good defense I don't think they're gonna play defense like this all season but if they could get moments of this defense and then It's tough shout out to them again for another game the dragon was lethal from the three-point line But man the Brooklyn Nets looks look scary today because the defense was great And then when there are two stars was struggling number three was like I got us or I guess number 13 was like I got us So it's great. The King took over the fourth quarter in Cleveland LeBron has a step bro. I don't know how many people Actually Unironically use wash King, you know what I'm saying LeBron be writing it on the back of his sneakers and stuff I don't know if I've ever heard someone actually called LeBron wash and if they did they're just a hater But LeBron has taken his wash King thing and ran with it and using it as motivation I mean hey if somebody talks negative about me I'm probably gonna use it as motivation as well But he'd be signing on the back of his shoes and today he was wearing a dope pair of kicks and he put up 46 at home like at his home Such a great and like takeover mode to listen the Cleveland Cavaliers are a good team They showcased that again tonight, but it was nothing they could have did on LeBron They were Mr. Larry Nance We probably got a lot of LeBron defensive minutes, but there is nothing they could do about him Well, I knew it was over with when he took a turn around fading three-point shot in the court I think it was a long two in the corner and it just went in I was one of those King James goat moments So you if you're a Cleveland Cavaliers, you can't even be mad You know I'm saying you just gonna have takeovers from LeBron like that a couple times a year And if you didn't watch this game, please go back and watch this game And even if it's just the highlights LeBron was Lethal 20 something points in the fourth quarter alone And I think Steph Curry had a great fourth quarter too But man the king the king the king next game We have the nuggets winning against the Mavericks man My boys are talking about this the nuggets and feel like they're they always end up in these super super close games Have they had a single blowout this year? It doesn't feel like it But this is a very good game for Michael Porter Jr Who's slowly ramping himself back into game shape after the um the health protocol stuff And he ended up having the best game of the season for him and then manager Michael Green Cannot have been a better signing for them for him to play a lot of the I guess like backup Small ball center where yoke is is not on the court palmill sap will bar didn't have good games But those bench replacements really did and I do expect to see Michael Porter Jr Back in his star lineup eventually once his condition is good But man Yoke, it's again another great MVP type performance and then Michael Porter Jr We're not gonna talk about the stuff tomorrow Murray did Um it did look intentional. I don't care what a different nugget fan tells me that looked very very intentional And there's no place for that in any place bro. That's like Rule one of being a guy is not hit another guy there You know what I'm saying unless you really trying to hurt them unless you really trying to hurt them And then for Luca to do everything he did today This is one of those losses that hurt and I don't want to judge the the Dallas maps because they're still not completely healthy but Poor zingas was really bad today He was and I'm gonna count it as a pass because he's still working his way up He was he was terrible today. I don't care that he scored 16 He was terrible today turnovers his fouls his defense all of that was terrible, especially in that fourth quarter Um, and he is your second best player. You need him to be better than that Next we have the the Celtics beaten up on the chicago bulls typical day You know typical day is bulls fandom where your team can't protect the ball You don't have a point guard, you know what I'm saying? I don't know what happened because throughout the first couple games of the season first 10 or so games Kobe white was looking really good and the last five or so he has not Um, jaylon brown still continues to be one of my favorite young players in the league I thought eventually he was slowed down but 16 games in the season No Did he miss a shot this game didn't feel like it shot to the Celtics Jason satan been back on the floor is great after basically him missing basically like a month of basketball It's don't feel like that But I can't wait to see them, you know back on national tv and playing against contenders But now they have pretty much their full strength except for pain pritchard who they could have used today I mean, I know they won't eventually but jeff teague sucks and pain pritchard is better than him as a rookie Uh, the warriors get a win over the timber walls with steve curry took over that fourth quarter doing steve curry Take this if you aren't watching stuff You're missing out on greatness. I don't know how many more years we have of steve curry being one of the better players in the league But I am not taking this for granted There were there were great players in the past that I kind of took for granted as far as like I wasn't watching them every single day. I missed tim duncan y'all But when tim duncan was still great I wasn't really tuning in. I missed out on like the last couple years of tim duncan I won't let that happen again Whether it be lebron with a b kevin or ran with a b james hard and steve curry these older guys in their 30s I'm going to watch every single game to to make sure I don't miss another moment of greatness because I don't be like man I missed that you know, I'm saying and this is one of those games and the shagas alexander I'm sorry. This wasn't even a shagame. This is a michael scala game It was a michael scala game because he turned into dirt the man hit a shot in the corner one legged spin move Michael scala a good win for the thunder who just won't go down as a tanking team They just never will they just never will good good game for them Um, I think that's my whole slater games man. If you enjoyed it leave it a like I'll see y'all very soon I don't know what the slater games look like tomorrow But if it ain't tomorrow it'll be the day after because you don't know I can't go along when I'll talk about basketball, baby. So I see y'all in a little bit. Peace
