Transcript

00:00All right, all right, all right. How's everyone doing? I hope you're all doing well. I am doing well. Thanks for asking. I am Multiapples. I'm live streaming some NBA 2K26 on Twitch.

00:13This is a quarterfinal game in the NBA Cup in my career mode. In my career, I'm a point guard player for the Golden State Warriors.

00:33So, it should be interesting to see if we can win the NBA Cup because it's the quarterfinals.

00:59All right.

01:03Managed to actually tie up the game, but unfortunately then KD took the lead.

01:21Ah, he blocked it. It was blocked again.

01:24Oh, and he missed it. Jimmy Butler missed it. So it is the NBA Cup.

01:42It's essentially similar done to the away for the group stage format of the away for Champions League.

01:52Not the current phase, the league phase, but the group stage.

01:56Oh, man. That's an illegal screen.

02:06Oh, man. That's an illegal screen.

02:08Oh, man. That's an illegal screen.

02:10Oh, man. That's an illegal screen.

02:12At least we got our rebound.

02:42My point guard is 66 overall, don't actually have chat open right now on Twitch.

03:10I should get the assist there.

03:19First assist of the game.

03:22I do have some drinks with me, I have some Powerade Strawberry Kiwi.

03:43Strawberry Kiwi, yes it is.

03:50Powerade Zero Strawberry Kiwi.

03:56Powerade Mountain Berry Blast.

04:10A and W Zero Sugar Root Beer.

04:19I should like this, I had a little bit of yesterday.

04:28I had some of these Zero Sugar Mug Root Beer yesterday as well and that's really nice

04:34to go out.

04:41I have some Aquafina bottled water.

04:53And my favorite soda, Solo.

05:09It's Cream Soda flavor.

05:25Alright, so far, I was going to say so far so good but we're down by 4.

05:42Come on Jimmy, make the shot, yes.

05:57Unfortunately, the Rockets made their shot.

06:01And their free throw at least we got two points back so we're down by 2 now.

06:22I don't have a favorite NBA team, if I'm being honest.

06:45There we go, we're down by 2 now.

07:08And then we're down by 4 again.

07:10Just when we score, they score.

07:34That's a nice move by Fred VanVleet.

07:37I'll admit that, that's a pretty nice move.

07:52That's a foul.

07:53We need to at least...

07:54No, it's Draymond Green.

07:55He's not the best free throw shooter.

07:59No, it's Draymond Green.

08:01He's not the best free throw shooter.

08:06He's not the best.

08:07No, he's not the best.

08:08He's not the best.

08:09He's not the best.

08:10He's not the best.

08:11He's not the best.

08:12He's not the best.

08:13He's not the best.

08:14So we need a defensive stop here to actually have a chance with the lead.

08:15And best in it to hopefully tie it.

08:29And we couldn't get it.

08:36Oh, and he blocked the shot.

09:02Thompson blocked the shot. Kuminger got the steal, though.

09:16Oh, he missed.

09:24Dang it, we're down by six now.

09:32There we go, we got the three-point shot to go in.

09:53So far, so good.

10:00I wonder who's going to win the NBA Finals this year.

10:05I know Detroit, if I remember correctly, won like 11 in a row.

10:14I wonder who's going to win.

10:17All right, second quarter now.

10:27I'm sorry for yawning so much.

10:30I just woke up, so.

10:45Woke up a little earlier because I'm intending to get, I'm getting overtime today.

10:51I have to get up a little bit earlier to arrive early to work.

10:56Because I technically work the last shift at my work.

11:02So anytime I get overtime, I have to come in early.

11:27But I don't mind because I get paid for it.

11:34How many assists do I have now?

11:37Four. Okay, good.

11:42And he was fouled on the shot.

11:55That's good for us.

12:01Looks very good.

12:11Here's what I'm going to play back to my face again, man.

12:14Thank you, Ben.

12:21Unselfish offensively and a highly skilled passer.

12:26Here's Durant.

12:27KD jams it straight down.

12:30Now that's how you use the screen right there.

12:33And it leads to a thunderous finish.

12:35That was nice.

12:36And you know, not enough help from the defense there to compensate.

12:39He gets a clean look, and that's exactly how you draw it up.

12:43They've had a slight leg up on the boards and a big leg up on the scoreboard.

12:48Well, you take a look at all of the stats.

12:50The team stats, that is.

12:51And that's one of the many areas that they've had the advantage.

12:55And as a result, they've got a big lead.

12:58Curry passes to MP.

13:02Here's Butler.

13:03The three is up.

13:04Cash.

13:05It's MP picking up the assist.

13:08Chang's got assist number five here tonight.

13:11Time called here.

13:12The Rockets decide to talk it over.

13:14You know, last game, they matched up with the Mavs.

13:16A tough loss there.

13:18Defensively, they weren't up to the task.

13:21Didn't play as a cohesive unit, and it really hurt them.

13:24And you know, that's all about effort.

13:25And I'm sure their coach let them have it for the lack thereof.

13:29And the power rankings look more concrete every day.

13:32Plenty of games behind us here in December.

13:34Taking a look at the Rockets.

13:36They're making moves up the standings.

13:38Claiming that fourth spot.

13:39I think for the Warriors, their fan base is concerned.

13:43We're seeing it all over social media.

13:45They expect more from this team.

13:48But right now, this team doesn't seem to have more to give.

13:51Pass to Ching.

13:54To the inside.

13:55Curry creates inside!

13:58Well, he's leading the way.

14:00Trying to get everybody else going now.

14:03Here in the second quarter.

14:04Just under three and a half minutes play.

14:10Van Vliet against Curry.

14:12Van Vliet misses!

14:13Everything right except the finish.

14:15Have to keep focus all the way through the play.

14:19Outside Curry.

14:22MP, the pass to Curry.

14:24Another three for Golden State!

14:27I just love the ball movement.

14:31And Houston has possession.

14:32They led by as many as 18.

14:34When this game is done, they'll be off to New Orleans.

14:37As they take on the Pelicans.

14:39That'll be their third game on the road.

14:41With seven games total on the schedule.

14:44Here's Thompson.

14:46And he can't stop the run as that one misses.

14:48As he often does.

14:49He gets to the rim.

14:50But that's just stellar defense.

14:54Butler passes to MP.

14:55Passes to MP.

15:03Fire to shoot.

15:06Here's Kuminga.

15:08It's rebounded by Shangoon.

15:11And Van Vliet has got the ball here for the Rockets.

15:14They've got a nine-point lead.

15:16We've seen that more than once today.

15:18An effortless basket inside.

15:21Well, listless and lifeless at the defensive end.

15:23I mean, especially inside.

15:25They've really got to pick up that interior defense.

15:28Curry!

15:29Splashes it in!

15:30And the defense is really allowing them too much room on the perimeter.

15:38Thompson outside.

15:43Up again.

15:45Here's Shangoon.

15:47And he was fouled while in the act of shooting.

15:49So he'll take two free throws.

15:52Well, you know, Shangoon has a variety of moves he can turn to in the post.

15:56I love that about his game.

15:57Keeps defenders off balance and oftentimes in a bad way.

16:02And we're joined now by Shams Charania.

16:04He's calling in with a story.

16:05Good to have you, Shams.

16:06What's going on?

16:07Thanks.

16:08Well, this new three-point error started with Stephen Curry.

16:11And it's really in the last decade that we're seeing the long-distance game extend to the center position.

16:16You look at the list of recent champions.

16:18It seems it's also not a luxury, but a necessity to have a paint presence who can also stretch the floor from deep.

16:25A nightmare to contain.

16:26All right, Shams.

16:27Appreciate the report.

16:29Curry passes to MP.

16:31Back to Curry.

16:34Good.

16:35And the assist goes to MP.

16:38Shang's got his ninth assist of the game now.

16:41The Rockets lead by seven.

16:42Thompson with it.

16:4312 points for him.

16:44Smith passes.

16:45Smith passes.

16:46Smith passes.

16:4712 points for him.

16:48Smith passes.

16:50Smith passes.

16:51back to Smith

17:06lets it go from deep

17:08the Warriors pull it in

17:10well he won't miss many of those

17:12not when he gets a good look like that

17:15MP finds Butler

17:16Curry against Smith

17:21Curry finds his way through inside

17:24well they're still losing

17:26but it's not because of him

17:28he's been lights out this quarter

17:30here's Van Vliet

17:33oh he took a hard foul on the shot

17:36so he'll head to the line to shoot a pair

17:38an NBA champion and

17:40all-star Fred Van Vliet's

17:42a guy every team wants because he's

17:44fun to play with and he plays the game

17:46the right way and with passion

17:47first trip to the line for him here

17:49and he knocks down the first one

18:01you got to admire the steadfastness of Van Vliet

18:04I mean he's an anchor for his team

18:06because they know they can trust him

18:08Post has checked in for the Warriors

18:10yeah they're really

18:12cashing in more at the line here in the second quarter

18:14definitely that's one of the reasons

18:16they're in front right now

18:17now a timeout called by Golden State

18:19there's just a lot of wide open lanes to the rim here

18:23that'll drive your coach nuts

18:25and you know I think he's going to tell them simply

18:27we have to show more fight on the interior

18:30that's the top priority right now

18:32Okogie's checked in for Van Vliet

18:35MP the pass to Curry

18:37back to MP

18:40on the wing

18:44Curry

18:44a 29 point game for him

18:47and the win against Chicago

18:48also his ability to push the action

18:51and get to the line

18:52made a huge difference

18:54sinks it from distance

18:55and this is how he shines

18:58he's a big part of their floor spacing

19:00and you know what

19:01it's all about the long distance game

19:03for him tonight

19:04he's getting it done from out there

19:48we've seen it time and time again

19:50in games

19:51effort and determination

19:52on the glass

19:53can make up for a lot

19:55of other weaknesses

35:23able to

35:24draw the

35:24foul as a

35:25result

35:25and a

35:26moment now

35:26to quickly

35:27take a look

35:27at the

35:28offensive

35:28approach

35:29for the

35:29Warriors

35:29well they

35:30have owned

35:31the offensive

35:31perimeter

35:32throughout this

35:32game

35:33finding lots

35:34of openings

35:34and turning

35:35them into

35:35big shots

35:36and the

35:37thing I've

35:37seen that

35:38I've really

35:38been impressed

35:39by is they've

35:39gotten everybody

35:40involved

35:40unselfishly

35:41making that

35:42extra pass

35:42getting that

35:43ball to the

35:44right guy at

35:44the right time

35:45for the good

35:45shot

35:46and the

35:46Rockets

35:47making a

35:47change

35:47here

35:48Thompson's

35:49checked in

35:49and both

35:50free throws

35:50good for

35:51Durant

35:51no doubt

35:52Kevin Durant

35:53is the best

35:54scoring forward

35:55of his

35:55generation

35:56maybe of

35:57all time

35:58I mean

35:58KD can do

36:00anything

36:01offensively

36:02coming down

36:02the stretch

36:03we'll see if

36:04someone can

36:36much more

36:36difficult
