 What's the world y'all welcome back to the call game recap today is one of those days man so much happened in the NBA world 67 a game slay we have 50 pointers Maybe the highlight of the year so much stuff and I'm here to talk about it Leave it like subscribe if you're new let's jump right in because I know there will be a lot first of all the ESPN website Is trash the way that they make you autoplay videos even when you tell them to stop is ridiculous I'm just putting that out there start off with the first game This is the first and only nasty televised game My Chicago Bulls have at least for the first half of the schedule and me and the guys were getting ready to watch this game And I just told them I just want my Bulls to play hard and not get blown out because you really think about it When you have one nasty televised game everybody watches game This might be a lot of people's first and only like like way of watching the Chicago Bulls is the only Impression they might have of this team so don't be terrible and today we didn't shoot the ball well But we weren't terrible. I feel like some people may have watched this game Okay, I realized that the Bulls are not a good team, but they know pushovers like they have been over the last couple seasons That's all I really care about people got to see Zach Levine in action Even though he didn't have a great shooting night you saw him take over parts of this game All I really wanted but all that being said when our center is six nine And we don't have a big body other than him. Yeah guys like Joel Embiid will eat last week I made a case for LeBron's MVP candidacy a couple days ago I made a case for Damien Lillard's MVP candidacy and today I'm making that case for Joel Embiid my top three getters right now vote getters right now today is the most dominant Big man performance. I've seen this season That's saying a lot because you'll get it's at a 50-point in himself You'll get a set of four well that 48 against the jazz was What 46 against the jazz really good? This one might be better and the reason I say that is because no matter what the Bulls did It did not matter double teams free Yeah, we had like triple teams at time and he closed our games like hit a big shot come down on defense Get the block rebound get fouled and hit the free stuff free throws the ice it That is MVP tight qualities and especially when when you take a consideration like the team is just really really bad when he sits and And and you saw it when they went against the jazz Jolin beat was there been sevens had the opportunity to do some things But it was still wasn't enough, but Jolin beat is a team Offensively and defensively the evolution of Jolin beat has been so incredible because these are the type of things We wanted to see from him over the past couple seasons and he hasn't been able to do a consistency Consistently right where they be due to injury ready to be due to rest and things like that But this year he's really doing it like if you think about last season before he said his goals Which are when defensive player year and went MVP, right? He didn't do any of those things and he actually didn't even make an all NBA team You know that it's in the back of his mind every single day. He laces up his sneakers, bro. He's he's he's the he's the guy He is the absolute guy and as much as he was great today I do want to show some love to Tobias Harris as well because if I'm not mistaken in the first half He didn't really do that much but Tobias Harris had one of those glue games where he had 20 Um, he did a lot of a playmaker because when open semis There wasn't really a lot of that going on and he deserves a lot of love as well very underrated season so far for Tobias Harris I know like Daryl Maury and some Philly fans are trying to get him into the all-star game I don't know if you'll actually get that but he definitely deserves some consideration man join the bead What a performance man. Just just just overall ridiculous, right? Next game we're going to talk about is the other Nazi televised game because that was a good one man That man down to Mitchell's on his team act stuff. He was like, I will not go down But he missed that free-thrown purpose as it is a bit weird This is what I want to say to the Clippers fans out there because I do get a lot of mentions about The Clippers being an under the radar team and what I always say to those mentors is that's exactly what you want as a Clippers fan the way last season went through where you were on top of things you're on magazines You got commercials saying we're the kings of LA and that you fall flat on your face And you're the laughing stock of the NBA you want to be under the radar right now And this was an amazing win against the hottest team in basketball, right? And guess what it wasn't kawai I mean these guys did play you know have their impact, but it wasn't kawai wasn't Paul George It was the surrounding pieces Lou Williams after we talked trash not talk trash We were pointing out how bad Lou Williams had been over the first month of the season the last week or two Amazing because Paul George and kawai Linda both missed a decent amount of time and why they were out This Clippers team was putting together wins without them, right? And that's what you want Mooc is showing that every penny that they gave him in the offseason was well worth it the Lucanar thing I'm still if you're about because he ain't really he ain't done much this season at all He got a he got a DMP today, and I think that was coach's decision Yeah, it was and they paid that man 17 18 million dollars whatever but like like today You saw Lou Williams saw Mooc and then the big thing is you see the Patrick Beverly impact, right? Patrick Beverly missed a lot of games so far this season And I know that everybody wants to joke about Patrick Beverly because he does he is super extra I understand people that don't like him because he is extra He did do the thing with Russell Westbrook I know it wasn't intentional to hurt Russell Westbrook But that that's a bad picture and people's mind and then even Russell Westbrook say he's been running around fooling y'all But you can't watch tonight's game like like like I did and say that Patrick Beverly Patrick Beverly just be fooling y'all Defensively on top of his game. He hit his shots, and that's all you really want for Patrick Beverly, right? I think the Clippers are better under the radar y'all I know you want to see your team get media love and everything But I'll tell you it's probably better for the long run to stay under the radar because the minute people start caring about you And you start to go on a little loser streak is the minute you get upset. That's all I'm really saying So be okay would be an under the radar next let's talk about the other 50-point game 250-point games on tonight This is the most efficient scoring night. I've seen from a guard that was just like Jamal Murray is so Weird of a player because he is as streaky as it gets Moments you see why they give him that max contract today is one of those moments But there are games where he have eight points ten points twelve points twenty points six points eight like he has the Biggest roller coaster of points ever It's just the way it is right and I think Mike Malone after the last game was like man Yolk is doing everything you can we need somebody else to step up and then now you get him stepping up This was the first version of bubble Murray. We've seen since the bubble 50 without a free throw is Ridiculous, it had never been done before according to according to Twitter I ain't do the fact-checking myself, but according to Twitter never done before It's incredible and the funniest thing about this is like we were watching this game I think he had 20 going into half Michael Porter Junior also had 21 going into half And I was like, oh who's gonna have the good second half because you know both of them probably wasn't gonna end up with 40 Michael Porter Junior scored one point in the second half and the Jamal Murray did all of the rest as good of a Performances was and how funny was to watch. I do got to give some love to my other short king out there He might be taking the reins as my favorite short king and the NBA right now Composal bro Composal is is the exact opposite of what you would expect from a short king because we get this reputation Especially the NBA world where we are defensive liabilities when you're under six foot less be honest, bro When you're you can't guard it's harder. It's way harder. Composal is a good defender under six foot I don't care what they got him listed as he's under six foot in a good defender He's fun and that those are the type of things. I really like I hope I hope that Joe Michael Green is okay I don't know the any updates about that and then Gary Harris to write Gary Harris as well They both got to get healthy and then the calves continue to slide man. They told drumming not to come back They continue to slide. This is like ah, I mean they showed the glimpses of what could be I think that's what cast man should be thinking about we showed glimpses what we could be Let's get another lot of your pig Let's add on top of this like one thing I did see about them that I can say positively I think a crow was aggressive now I do know that he missed a bunch of bunnies But he was aggressive getting to the basket and trying to create his own shot and that's evolution of him Which is good next game the Kimball Walker game This is if you didn't know this is the Kenny beat your boost anytime I talked to an NBA player the next couple games you expect them to be great The same thing happened really go bear and now it's happening with Kimball Walker I interviewed him yesterday will be out soon and he came in and he was like, oh, yeah I hear y'all talking that trash Celtics fans. I'm still I still got it But is the thing about the Celtics they they have these games where they look amazing Everybody's contributing and then they go on two games where it's like, okay Now only three of our players are really contributing. Oh that bench that we saw really good tonight won't be good tomorrow So they need to keep that repetition time load was amazing today overall. They're big. We're good today Christian Tyce Time Lord great the Atlanta Hawks. Oh Man, how how disappointed it has been. Um, we always say the thing bet on yourself Fred Eveley got this whole mantra Jimmy Butler We've seen so many NBA players bet on themselves when they have a contract on the table We like no I'm gonna go into this restrict the year so I could get more money in this season It was John Collins and so far John Collins is losing money day by day day by day They offered him $90 million in extension and he said no I deserve more and uh, nope so far this season He ain't really done that Gallinari is one of the most most disappointing players disappointing signings of the season He was bad and and overall he's just been very bad for them And it's just it's tough because the Atlanta Hawks were a team that when you think about all their signings You're like, okay This is a team that should be be in the position to be at least in the playing right and so far. It hasn't really been that I know they're still missing Hunter, which is such a big piece to them Who was today man in yaka Kangoo Rondo was Rondo playing today Rondo didn't play today and Chris don't we don't I got damn think about so they are missing some quality players But there are games that they've lost this season that they probably should have won I'm not saying this is one of them But they just can't get everybody to contribute the way that they want them to Gallinari man that contract is looking bad through the first month and a half of the season That's what I'm saying. Um next game that I got to watch parts of was was Bucks versus Thunder I was hoping that the Thunder won this game and it's not because I don't like the Bucks or anything But I like I like when when when people got pressure on them and coach budd had pressure on them And luckily he went against a team that's going on the you know on the downward thing So they got a win but like I like when people have pressure on them all of the people I follow on Bucks Twitter Got a fire bud profile picture right now and when you get wins that that firing process probably get get pushed back Just a little bit and then I think or the last game was the Raptors versus Tim Wolves such an ugly game Right, but it did get the highlight of the year so far Listen, there is a Nate Duncan. All right. That's just specifically to you I you know what I like Nate Duncan and Dan Lee Rue They're like very technical stat guys in the NBA world and there's a world I mean there's a a spot for them in the NBA world, right? We need those stat guys We need the eye test guys. We need the combination of the two this may Anthony Edwards at the play of a lifetime today You don't want to not be why why were you jumping right? And then instead of praising them and just doing what everybody was as hyped about this highlight We got with a party pooping Nate Duncan coming in like yeah cool dunk, but he shot three for yada yada Yes, he had a bad game overall. He's a he's a he's a he's a rookie at the end of the day, right instead of I just I don't know. I don't know. I don't know why we Hopefully everybody understands or some people understand, but uh, normie pal Last couple games, especially with calorie being now has been incredible for them. Um, you don't want to knob it I know he ended up getting dunked on but he brings in the in the minutes at your place He brings his energy. I mean he jumped he jumped at the end of that day That lets you know that he's playing with some energy. Um, Terrence Davis I forgot Terrence Davis even existed y'all came in and hit a big shot later in the game But for the Timberwolves, bro Give Carl Anthony tells the goddamn ball every time they're in a close game. I'm mentioning this Courtney tells can't get the ball Give it just give it to him It's not like teams a triple team in him and denying the the the entry passes Give him the ball. I don't know if he took a shot in the last three minutes It's Carl Anthony towns give him the ball Yeah, the Saunders Saunders kids got to be better Saunders kids got to be better, bro There's no way and it was like multiple timeouts and they couldn't even draw up a play where carnton towns even gets a look at the ball Look at the basket It's rough. It's rough. Um, is that everything that I talk about every game I got to see Um, didn't watch magic, but I saw voose of his head a great game triple double game very under the radar I wouldn't be surprised if he got some all starting awesome some coaches, but I don't know the coaches are notorious for Just picking players on winning teams. So he's one of those guys that maybe not get get the love Which other is that every game? I did not I I need to get back on the grizzlies grind man Because because just having these performances. I need to get back on the grizzly grind. Oh my god That is not the only game probably my favorite game of the day. Thank god. I looked at the slate again Christopher Emanuel paul Continues to show that he is the point god point god And this is not just a fan in me talking bro This man took over the fourth quarter and not just with the scoring But with the shot, I don't think devin booker scored in the fourth quarter He with the scoring the passing they were down by double digits in this fourth quarter They they hit their shots and a lot of that was chris paul being chris paul I absolutely love this man He is one of those dudes that if you are not watching chris paul right now, you're missing out on greatness We don't know how many years left chris paul has at playing at this level You need to be tuned in because this man continuously takes teams and turned them into playoff teams now I know that the sons were eight and knowing the bubble So maybe they would have been on a trajectory to make the playoffs without him But he's guaranteeing them a playoff spot by his amazing play. He should be an all-star consideration I damn didn't want to put him as a lock, but I ain't looked at the rest of the players He deserves it. I don't care what the counting stats say I don't care what the counting stats say you got to look deeper than that You got to watch these games to see the impact of christopher immanuel paul The pelicans rotation is trash That's my takeaway I hate when I hate when teams get in the close games and then instead of running the flowing offense They may have run for the first three quarters They end up resulting the isolation ball and it's just why Why why take it away from what was working the entire game Stan van gunny's got to get those rotations down bro Because they took it was it was the end of the third quarter rotation or substitutions That let the phoenix sons take over chris paul was feasting on the backup guards And and instead and instead of seeing it and trying to stop the bleeding while was there Stan van gunny's like no, we're gonna wait. We're gonna wait. We're gonna keep our normal rotations We're not gonna make any adjustments to the things i've done all the rest of the season This is a game they should have won 100 percent A game that devin booker doesn't score in the fourth Maybe he scored one or twice, but I don't I don't feel like he scored the entire fourth quarter Devin booker didn't score an entire fourth quarter and we were up by double digits and we still lost Frank aminsky has been a very weird player to throw into the starting lineup, but he has been amazing for them Um in moderation today was one of those really big games for them Deondre aiden was having so many things and him on the glass was great. It's just Mm-hmm. It shouldn't have been a game j crowd a big game. That's it. Okay. I'm so happy I went back on it.
