00:00Well, which is great news.
00:01All right, let's hear from Dyson Daniels as far as their approach to game six.
00:06I just think their mindset was to come out and try to bully us and be physical.
00:11And they did that.
00:12You know, they pushed us under on rebounds.
00:14You know, they set really good screens.
00:17They did all the little things.
00:18They took care of the ball.
00:21So, you know, when you do that, and, like, I think for us, you know,
00:24we just got to move the ball.
00:26We got to get better shots.
00:27We got to take care of it.
00:29But so there's a lot of things that, you know,
00:31I don't think we played anywhere near our best basketball at all this series.
00:35So we got to really, you know, come with a different mindset for game six.
00:39What a great assessment.
00:41Yes.
00:43Absolutely 100% correct.
00:44Everything they tried to do, they did.
00:46Yeah.
00:47Them.
00:48Pretty much nothing the Hawks wanted to do was accomplished.
00:51No.
00:51Did the Hawks do anything well in game five?
00:53That was a nice dunk.
00:54Yeah.
00:54That was a good dunk.
00:55Yeah.
00:57Huh.
00:58No.
00:59I don't really.
00:59Yeah.
01:00No.
01:00I mean, they got out-rebounded by 20.
01:02Yes.
01:04They didn't turn it over much.
01:06Okay.
01:06Yeah.
01:07Positive.
01:07Yeah.
01:08They only turned it over 10 times.
01:09I mean, they should have turned it over 20 and had 20 more rebounds.
01:12I know.
01:13That's my thing.
01:13Yeah.
01:14It's like, I don't.
01:15Obviously, I'm not saying that I want the Hawks to turn the ball over.
01:17But if the style of game is one where both teams turn the ball over a little bit more,
01:23I think that benefits the Hawks.
01:25Yeah.
01:25I mean, that goes back to everything you're saying as far as mucking up the game.
01:30But, yeah.
01:32You got to get you one.
01:34You got to get you one.
01:36You got to get this game back to New York City, man.
01:38Because the thing about it is that's when it tightens up.
01:43That's when that crowd gets tense.
01:45Yeah.
01:45Yeah.
01:45You know, talking about that New York City crowd.
01:47The Falcons go out there and play loose as hell tonight, man.
01:50I'm sorry, the Hawks.
01:51But I think the thing about it is you got to get you one.
01:56Or at least put the effort to get you one.
01:59Yeah.
01:59You know, go down swinging.
02:01I think the way that tonight goes, goes a long way in kind of determining the way that
02:07we're going to talk about what this Hawks season was and what the offseason is, too.
02:11Like, if they go out there and get beat by 30 again by the Knicks, then, you know, there's
02:18probably a lot more on the table as far as change.
02:23Not saying, like, any of the key pieces are going to be moved or anything like that.
02:26But, like, if Jalen Johnson can go out and score 30 and look like that guy and really
02:31be impactful and assertive and look like the guy we've seen this year, that would just
02:38be really good for him in the way that he gets talked about all summer.
02:42Yeah, it'd be awesome.
02:42It would be awesome.
02:43People are going to drag his ass through the mud if he plays the way that he's played in
02:46this series again tonight.
02:47Yeah.
02:48I mean.
02:48I'm not people.
02:49Oh, definitely not.
02:50Definitely not.
02:50But it's going to.
02:51The hot takers are going to have, like, a heyday.
02:54But we understand why, though.
02:55You know, because we're led to believe that he's the guy.
02:59You know?
02:59And I think he can be the guy.
03:01He is the guy, yeah.
03:01But, you know, but yet you've got to figure it out.
03:03I think he's still young.
03:05He's still in learning this new role of being the guy.
03:07But somebody's got to go get you 30.
03:09Now, Nal's got to play better.
03:10He does.
03:11We understand that.
03:12We understand that, you know, Kamega's got to play better off the bench.
03:15But they just, you can't, like, again, they didn't grow from New York back to Atlanta.
03:21Right.
03:21There's just some things that are just, you know, genetics.
03:24Like, Mo Gay's not going to be able to body Carl Anthony down.
03:27No, he's not.
03:28He's not.
03:29And, again, I'm going back to that.
03:30He can knee him in the thigh, though.
03:31Like, use your fouls.
03:32You know?
03:33You can foul him hard.
03:34Foul him hard.
03:34You know?
03:35That's the thing.
03:35That's the thing they got totally wrong in Game 5 was they fouled him not quite hard enough.
03:40Yes.
03:40They fouled him just hard enough to make him mad and let him finish and get and ones and
03:46then do the little Carl Anthony town, like, little scream yells that he does.
03:50God.
03:50It's so, it's, he's a fine basketball player.
03:54Yeah, but say the mean thing you want to say.
03:56No.
03:56Do it.
03:56I can't because FCC.
03:57Of course he's a good basketball player.
03:59FCC will get us, man.
03:59Don't get us, man.
04:00God, I hate watching him play.
04:01I think he's just annoying.
04:02God, I hate him.
04:03He's just an annoying dude.
04:05Yes.
04:06His whole body is like.
04:08No, I'm just saying, when he celebrates, it's like Gumby.
04:10When he celebrates, it's so, like, because it only does the little dudes.
04:14Right.
04:14You know what I mean?
04:15He's only getting in Corey Kisper's face.
04:16Yeah, he's getting in Corey Kisper's face.
04:17But when they were going against Joker, and Joker, nothing.
04:21Nothing.
04:22You know what I want to say.
04:24And everybody out there know what I want to say.
04:25Well, I just can't say it.
04:26Right.
04:27You don't want to get fired.
04:27Yeah, I don't get fired.
04:28Not for Carl Anthony Towns.
04:29Not for Carl Anthony Towns.
04:30But, God, it would be great if they could treat him like Carl Anthony Towns.
04:33Yes.
04:34Do you understand what it says about you?
04:37If you go out like this, and you got punked by Carl Anthony Towns?
04:42Yes.
04:42Yes.
04:42Do you know, like, and again, he's a really good basketball player, obviously.
04:45Yes, he is.
04:45And they made the East Finals last year.
04:47I'm not trying to say he's not a good basketball player.
04:49But he's not a tough basketball player.
04:52And if this is what happens to you, then what does that say about you?
04:56I don't know.
04:56You're not tough.
04:57I don't know.
04:57They got to get some toughness.
04:58They got to, but that's for a conversation we might have to have tomorrow.
05:03Yeah, that's the offseason.
05:04Yeah, yeah, yeah.
05:05Right now, we're in season.
05:06I don't think you can just become tough.
05:07Yeah.
05:07No, no, no.
05:08You can't just, like, go scrub your knees on the concrete and all that other stuff.
05:12You don't wake up tough.
05:14You know, it's in you.
05:15I wake up tough.
05:16It's in you.
05:17It's in you.
05:18I woke up tough this morning.
05:19It's in you.
05:20Tough.
05:21It was tough to wake up.
05:22Wake up tough or, yeah, that's what I was saying.
05:23It was tough to wake up.
05:24Yeah, yeah.
05:25Oh, okay.
05:26So, Dubon is going to be a left field.
05:30Okay.
05:30Okay.
05:31Mato is at shortstop at Eli White's Plants.
05:33So, Mike's not in the line there.
05:35And Bryce Elder's on the mound.
05:36Let me see it, Bo.
05:37So, Susie Diaz.
05:38All right, here we go.
05:39Put him up.
05:39Put him up.
05:41For people that aren't watching on YouTube, we've all got our fingers crossed.
05:45This is our Bryce Elder ritual.
05:47Yes.
05:47It's worked.
05:48Yes.
05:48He's been quite good this year.
05:50Yeah.
05:50We can keep that rolling.
05:51So, no Michael Harris today, huh?
05:53No.
05:53He probably D8's or something.
05:54Still dealing with the quad guy.
05:55We should have got some inside info.
05:57Yeah, Pops is right there.
05:58We were talking to the man last night.
05:59Yeah, Pops was studying that.
06:00No, he's not telling us anything.
06:01He don't tell us nothing.
06:02He wanted to make fun of the tiny pig they were serving us.
06:05Oh, man.
06:06He had me rolling about that damn little ass pig they had in there.
06:09Mike said, is that a duck?
06:11I was like, no, Mike.
06:12It's a pig.
06:13He said, they cooked a piglet?
06:16A little ass pig.
06:17Yeah, it was good, though.
06:18The pig feet were good.
06:20I was like, hey, Dom.
06:21Because he came over to do his, like, he carved it up.
06:23He was getting out the meat for him and everything.
06:25Because Bo Tex, he's like, they got a whole pig.
06:27I was like, save me the snout and the feet.
06:29And the guy was like, I was like, hey, man, cut me off that pig feet.
06:32He said, you want the feet?
06:32I was like, yeah, that one right there.
06:35You didn't have to fight anybody for those?
06:37Nope.
06:39Because it was at my house and my family.
06:41Oh, they fighting over the feet.
06:42Yeah, I don't know if there's any other.
06:44I don't know how many other pig feet eaters were in the Truist Club last night.
06:49What about me?
06:49It might have been you and Michael Harris Sr.
06:51Because I had two of them.
06:54All right.
06:55Grant McCauley is going to join us next.
06:56We'll get his thoughts on everything that's going on with the Atlanta Braves.
06:59So don't go anywhere.
