00:00Now, do you want to talk about how the Mavericks beat the Heat, and that's sweet, and they've
00:22won four of their last five, and the only one they didn't win, they lost by one point
00:27in overtime, or do you want to talk about the other thing that we found?
00:30All right, let's start with the fun part, then.
00:33The fun part is this team of, I'm not even going to say misfits, because they weren't
00:39even cast off as misfits.
00:41They were just a bunch of people that have been collected.
00:44And somehow, Jason Kidd's like, yeah, we're going to play great basketball, guys.
00:48We're going to figure out ways to win basketball games.
00:51We're going to stay close.
00:52Kessler Edwards actually is going to hit three of four three-pointers.
00:55You like Kessler Edwards.
00:56Really phenomenal defense for me.
00:58What's going on with this guy?
00:59Max Christie seemed like he was one for a hundred from three yesterday, but even still,
01:04there's a thing about his defense.
01:06There's a quality about him that you're just like, man, I love the youth.
01:09The way they have to play right now is they have to run.
01:13Their style is they have to run.
01:14So you're not going to get Kyrie and Klay on back-to-backs because of the way that they're
01:19having to play basketball.
01:21But whenever they can go out and put that kind of roster, that kind of lineup out there,
01:25and they're getting offensive points, they're playing really good defense.
01:28I got to give Jason Kidd and his staff a ton of credit for getting them ready.
01:33And the line, I think it was Kyrie that said, you know, there is a lot of noise, but in
01:36here we're focused on the game that each night.
01:40And that's a big deal, man.
01:41It's very difficult when people are asking you lots of different questions about how
01:44are you ever going to get by without Anthony Davis?
01:46How are you ever going to get by without Luca and all these things?
01:49And then you got to go out and execute and play a game.
01:52I got to give Jason Kidd a ton of credit for keeping the thing the thing.
01:56And that is what's on the court.
01:57And just for the record, you can still be happy about the way they play and still be
02:01upset about the trade.
02:02Absolutely.
02:03Those can be...
02:04I still miss Luca.
02:05Sure.
02:06Last night as I was rolling through TikTok, I saw him head-butt a ball backwards to Austin
02:10Reeves and Austin Reeves was like, holy crap, what did you just do?
02:13Do you miss Luca more than he misses three-pointers?
02:17But when I saw it, I was like, that's the Luca we get.
02:20That's the Luca I'm going to miss.
02:22The dude that loves playing, just goofing around and playing basketball because he's
02:26that good at it.
