00:00uh chet holmgren took two shots yeah like let that sink in max contract supposed to be the guy
00:07that's going to match wemby certainly from a size standpoint he's right there and in the biggest
00:12game of his life game seven in his own building all right not the biggest game of his life he
00:18won a game seven in the nba finals last year and they beat the pacers but they were a much
00:22better
00:22team than indiana yeah obviously so halibut halibut was out down in that right in any event
00:27he doesn't have a championship let me just be fair and intellectually honest about it but game seven
00:33was the next biggest game of his career how do you play 40 minutes of basketball plus and attempt two
00:41shots like i just i can't wrap my my brain around that all right for the final 31 minutes of
00:49the game
00:50that he was in he did not attempt a single shot no so that's more than a half of basketball
00:56yeah that's
00:57the entire second half and a good portion of the second quarter you're an offensive weapon for
01:02them now sga did his job played his ass carried him yeah he played 40 yeah he played very well
01:09so i've got no beef with sga and he didn't really flop that much no no he just game seven
01:13he just
01:14hooped yes he played basketball a couple times but no he's not based on what we normally see no no
01:19he
01:19hooped and i'm watching that game like i'm sure you are i'm like look jane williams is also doing his
01:24damnedest and he's banged up right um and then and i'm watching it go to myself man the other jane
01:32williams yeah yeah um there's two jane williams on the same squad one's out second best players out
01:38the other jane williams who got nicked was obviously carrying his own yeah right caruso all those guys
01:43out there doing everything everybody did their thing except for him bingo even isaiah cartenstein
01:48who i mean black he is black he listen he has to guard he had to guard wimby i mean
01:54he's getting
01:55elbowed in the face or whatever he stuck his nose in there time to time again he gave them as
01:58good
01:59all he had yep so it's just look and i give the i give the spurs credit the spurs went
02:03on the road
02:03and a place that most people say they they can't possibly win there i told you i thought the spread
02:08was a little weird a three and a half yeah that's that's not a big enough spread for me to
02:11have liked
02:12oklahoma city in that game from a handicapping standpoint that being said yo i applaud the spurs
02:18now here's the reality for the spurs the spurs specifically wimby who i do have respect for he's
02:25the new face of the league and will be the face of the league probably for a very very long
02:29time
02:29because he's 20 whatever years old 22 yep he reacted like he won a championship after that game yeah
02:35crying like tears flowing down his face yeah the post-game press conference about this great
02:42achievement uh and i'm looking at it going my man you haven't won anything yet right like yes great
02:50it's their believe it or not it's their first playoff run first time this spurs team has made
02:54the playoff absolutely with these this uh guys and they have a lot of talent to down fox rock star
03:00in sacramento all those years very very good right finally getting obviously you got dylan harper
03:05a young player that dude's real counted on a lot he's real and he's real dude can score uh great
03:11very athletic castle's their best two-way player as far as on the perimeter i think castle's i know
03:16he's rookie of the year two years ago yeah i think castle's the best player nobody knows about yep so
03:20i'm not they got talent i'm not going to dispute whether young talent johnson and coach who i didn't
03:25know a lot about before he became the coach has done a great job with them as well that being
03:29said
03:30i think they reacted to winning the west as if they won a championship and i think well i would
03:38have picked them and they should be favoring game when they are about what four and a half four four
03:42and a half whatever it is which i expect uh you know they have the better record this year at
03:47home
03:47they are they got through a much tougher west then uh the knicks got through an easier east i can
03:52own
03:52that knicks likely rusty for game one and they're at home right and they're seven nine days off the last
03:57sunday nine days off that was their worst game of the postseason that being said there is going to
04:04be a significant letdown for the san antonio spurs now you and i could debate as these two things but
04:11heads is the nine days off worse or not as bad as the emotional letdown that the spurs are suffering
04:19let's just agree that they maybe cancel each other out i can live with that all right because they're
04:23going from saturday to wednesday so the spurs won't be tired and they're too young to be tired
04:26but four days and nine days are very different i think the key to the new york knicks in this
04:32series now look i'm going to pick the knicks to win it in six i'll just say that right now
04:35uh i think it's a really good series i don't think there's a lot of blowouts in this series
04:39no like in the in the spurs thunder series every game but one and seven was a blowout on either
04:45side
04:46game one was the double overtime game game seven at least was close up until about three four minutes
04:51left and then the the the thunder never really got back into it right missed a bunch of shots late
04:56i don't think there's gonna be a blowout in this series i don't all right and i'm a diehard nick
05:00fan
05:01i take the knicks in six but the knicks have something these other teams don't the knicks have
05:07the ability to play ogiana noby on wemby he guarded him in the regular season uh in the cup and
05:14in the
05:14two times they played prior to that and the knicks took care of business against the spurs they didn't
05:19beat the thunder once this year but they did a good job against the spurs and the reason out of
05:24noby is so important is because while he gives up a foot of size he's a tough son of a
05:29bitch he's
05:30gonna guard wemby well and push wemby strong as hell by doing that you open up carl anthony towns
05:36who when he wants to be is a uh top tier defender picks up too many silly fouls and now
05:43your next
05:44biggest guy on the spurs is losing the size battle against carl anthony town so if when the knicks do
05:52that what the knicks are saying to the spurs is wemby might get 25 and 12 and 3 i'll just
05:59give you
05:59random arbitrary average numbers but og's gonna beat him up og's a man and then by having carl anthony
06:07towns guard your next big man or next biggest player is gonna be your power forward that's an advantage
06:13for the knicks defensively so this is gonna be one of those deals where wemby's gonna score and
06:19we're okay with it we're gonna try to keep him away from the basket as much as we can but
06:24who else is
06:24scoring in the low post for the spurs the answer is nobody
