Brooklyn Nets need to move on from Nic Claxton / Nets win vs Rockets

Brooklyn Nets need to move on from Nic Claxton / Nets win vs Rockets

What’s going on everyone welcome back to another edition of bkny Hoops if you’re new to the channel I am your host as always Rashid why you guys actually see the title thumbnail is not up right now but uh Brooklyn Nets actually needs a serious sens of upgrade one that that

Can actually hit free throws and make good good decisions uh thank God shenon didn’t actually go off in this game or uh the Brooklyn Nets could have actually lost this game but y saw in the fourth quarter jacqu vau actually had to sit claing out because of the uh the free

Throw issues with the hacker Clacks and we seen last year when we had Kevin Durant Kyrie Irving um I think Ben Simmons was there too and you know they they think they were playing San Antonio last year and uh Greg papovich actually went to a hacker class all right let me get the

Link up over here man anybody El she wants to come up in here hold on one second let me get this link up here let’s get invite I knew Jonathan was actually G come on up in here Jonathan come on up in here Brother come on up in here let’s

Talk about this game over here I mean thank God the Rockets actually came out flat they actually picked it up in the second half of this game shanon I thought he was going to Maul us man uh but he didn’t really do that he had

About 15 points here let me get the box scores up too let’s see let me uh share this thing here let’s see one second all right yeah here we go yeah CU CL hold right we this guys see all right one second John I’m G get

You up in there what’s going on Jonathan how hey BK how you doing my friend yeah it was a nail biter man a nail biter man hey it’s another day in Brooklyn man I’m doing good man had a good day think man have I changed your mind about

Claxton yet you think he’s still ready for prime time let’s say if we go into the playoffs and I mean this could be an issue right there with those free throws man I I know but I’ll definitely say this he outrebounded seon we held sangon down thankfully defensively we came

Through in that beginning and cam Thomas I told you I what I say yesterday we were going to win because he was going to have a 20 plus game and he had a 37 plus effort without those points this team would have lost tonight play and simple yeah the Rockets the Rockets were

Lucky think the Rockets weren’t really hitting the outside shots man um they were doubling shanon up they would double him he was making the right reads and but that they weren’t really hitting outside shots um yeah cam Thomas 37 points I mean the good thing about cam

Thomas is that he actually went to the free throw line 15 times but I mean he was you know kind of you know turnover is prone there and there quarter a little but he was very efficient tonight and I also really love that he did have a really good defensive

Play I think was against uh one of the the Rockets players I where he was like up against them and he actually managed to cause a turnover on them which was pretty good like just to see Thomas have that energy to have that defensive energy was very important to see so I

Definitely think he made some improvements and the biggest plus was he was hitting 50% with his three-point shots which is pretty damn good yeah yeah no I mean this is the key the key thing over here 15 free throws I think if he can actually get to this

Over here then uh I mean you should start cam Thomas but just minus the mistakes man he made what’s good man how you doing good baby cam Thomas in the [ __ ] building what I say man what did I say man yesterday what did I say predictions

What I say we were gonna win because Thomas man I told you yo listen man cam Thomas he need to start it’s no debate you feel me um seriously yo BK I ain’t mad I ain’t mad at you bro I mean like um I thought I thought Shan goon didn’t

Have like a great game but it was times it was times when I seen Clon kind of get bodied you feel me yeah man that’s kind of Cl only knock bro he got to just get some muscle man that’s it bro five years to do it it hasn’t been

Done yet hey but his rebound his rebounding has been great another great rebounding night the only thing that’s a negative going forward is these coaches are going to do the hacka CLS or hacka Ben and unfortunately we can’t play both of them together in clutch time and we

Can not play maybe both of them at clutch time so it’s like Jack F has to find a way to maneuver that because you can’t because that ruined our on the ball I mean there was there was times Jonathan he was just like I forgot who was guarding him in the fourth quarter

They like Roy oal throw him the ball he was getting kind of Trapped and they even throw the ball I just want to throw something out to y’all bro so after watching tonight one thing got proved to me that I just want to tell yall number one cam

Should be in the lineup regardless but number two bro I just want to point this thing out to Y John Cam and Mel they play very well with each other they compliment each other finally they start to figure it out no no look they compliment each other right the only

Thing that needs to change is you see how cam was like the number one today and bridges was the two that needs to be the role bro cam you won Mel you the two but they compliment each other the second thing second thing second thing I’m Gonna Let You Go cam Johnson he

Needs to go to the bench he’s the problem because when Bridges and Johnson start they don’t compliment each other bro they games don’t compliment each other together in the starting five Cam and and bridges do so I think you should go and also I think then what he then

Would he showed me that he plays good with that group he don’t play good with Cam Johnson bro so I think going forward it should be Ben if he healthy Ben cam Thomas Bridges at small forward dor anony Smith because he got defense and Clon that’s the lineup bro

And then I would bring Off the Bench Dennis Smith Lonnie cam Johnson you feel me and I would just do that thing but right that’s my opinion to your points I think Mel Bridges being on this this this this role as like the second or

Third score is good for him he could be like the Drew holiday of this team if you have the right you know Superstar Talent OR top players complimenting him I think that works and having Thomas be the main guy is is better balance for the two of them it doesn’t pressure Mel

And Mel can make clutch shots in the closing quarters if he’s set up the right way so that’s a POS yo yo hey yo yo BK Chevy coming at your head bro Shout outy heyyy cheevy kep receipts bro hey I kept my receipts too man sh got the ball they

Were let Ivan talk but one second one second for Chevy man it wasn’t let Shang get off man Chevy single coverage man they were double team Dr too much at the saloon yo what up I I feel like I feel like we won because everybody was playing their role cam Johnson going

Down oh man I hate saying this because I don’t want nobody you know it was personal issues said bro he was it was personal issues he wasn’t hurt yeah I know but still every time he goes out we do better like it’s just because everybody I just say that John

He needs to go to the bench bro cam but but also dor Smith had a great game before he got heard thank God she’s okay and it’s not a longterm thing but he had a great night too yeah he also we we don’t give him credit because I I I’ve

Been telling BK Hoops that a lot of people like cam so so cam Johnson and Mel Bridges do the same thing but Mel Bridges do it better than cam Johnson so it’s like Mel Bridges all ball is deadly well cam Johnson gives you some more athleticism like ability to actually

Finish I mean you saw him dunk on not better than brid Bridges is not doing that no I like I like Harlem’s idea of breaking them up because here’s the thing Johnson is more of a set and three shooter than Mel is Mel is go willing to go into the interior which Johnson

Doesn’t do as much so I think switching them different units it works that actually might work better for the team Bridges got more to his bag yes yes just feel like he should just be the number two now if you notice today when they was playing if you notice Bridges was

Deferring the cam and they was looking for cam to be the number one if they could just get that down pack with Ben Simmons if he let let’s be honest even though y’all know I love cam Thomas like Harlem you know and uh big Breezy and a

Lot of us we been K thas standing you know I think jonan is the only one that’s even killed you know he’s the he’s not the biased one but I think you know when it goes to Bridges bridges really play amazing off ball better than cam Thomas cam Thomas just a better shot

Thank you Chevy yeah put cam Johnson on the bench yo I bro I I just hope I hope and pray listen I feel D is such an idiot that something tells me he gonna go with the same [ __ ] lineup and put cam on the bench something hold on hold on hold on hold

On hold on hold on hold on because cam Thomas do get a lot of credit but I like what Jonathan said man the way Dennis Smith Jr played bro deser he was a a master class in defense and he was shooting three well I mean let me ask

Let me ask you something you got cam Johnson making almost a hundred million doll I mean can you justify I don’t give a [ __ ] what he making put I agre you guys I agree I agree I’m I’m not disagree no no I’m just clarifying his contract it’s not as bad

As it looks because there’s incentives that he’s not going to meet so so it actually saves Brooklyn more money than what the contract actually looks like but you guys noticed too you make a good point but you guys noticed too that Mel Bridges was playing better defense

Because he didn’t have to take the shooting load it’s really hard to like it’s really hard to play defense and shot crate yo let me tell you something bro if Kevin Ali was the head coach right I definitely think the Nets would be top six that’s first and foremost

Secondly right I’mma say it again Bridges don’t even look like he want to be the number one he look like he’s forced into it bro like you know I mean he’s not complaining cause because all right Bridges never had an opportunity to be the number one right so when you

Get the opportunity you ain’t about to go to the coach and say hey coach this guy is way better make me the two because you getting a chance to shine but you can just see deep down Bridges is like yo this [ __ ] just too cold bro

You feel me and and if you paid attention today you seen he was deferring to cam a lot like cam was the one going to get the ball you feel me Bridges was kind of you know what I’m saying and that’s how it should be bro

So I think Bridges is coming into that like yo bro I’m not the guy but but you see yo we not even talking about CA cam Thomas he did he did the load on the offensive end but Dennis Smith Jr bro that defensive master I told listen Ian

I tell you man Dennis when when he first started this season everybody looked him like the they didn’t want him on the team because he doesn’t score much and he gets injured but then he comes back we start winning a lot of games because of his defense the

Clippers J listen listen jonan you ever heard you remember Tony Allen you remember you remember Tony Allen from the U yeahh you remember Tony Allen johnon or you never got to watching play noo Tony Allen is like Tony bati no sorry he’s like he’s like um James posy

Sorry yeah like so like just like fny Smith bro fny Smith man and I know BK who probably won’t agree but finny Smith is one of our best he’s better than Clon he better than uh he better than Ben Simons like he don’t take no breaks like

I never you know how hard it is to play defense like that bro you know remember that shock block they gave claxon credit for it was Finley Smith that did it bro he play bigger than what he is people don’t people only see scoring in

B y know cam Thomas but what he does is just it goes under it just go unappreciated man let me just say this though bro cam Thomas was playing defense tonight so I Want To Praise My Boy for playing defense and he had a steal on Jaylen green I don’t know if

Y’all seen that I saw we got listen we got really lucky on this man if you look at the box scores from the uh Houston Rockets I miss they missed a lot of Threes um was Dylan Brooks he’s not really a three-point shooter but one out can wee

Trade bro hold on BK Hoops hold on y hold on before you continue that though BK Hoops the Rockets was playing so hard that’s why I like eay we got to give him credit e may got these people was knocking each other over they were playing playoff I never seen a play hard

Not in the first half they weren’t playing hard the second half they were playing hard no no no because it’s like it’s okay so what I mean by playing hard right because it’s different levels like it’s just you know in the post before the playoffs comes in the regular season

Everybody Plays decent because you trying to make it to the playoffs right they was playing so hard bro they was playing harder than hard like they was knocking each other over like they was wining that bad they was dropping bodies dropping flopping flying like bro like

Eay is you know why is because because e adoka like his philosophy bro you could tell his philosophy is if you don’t play your ass ain’t gonna play yeah you could tell you going to like like like you see Shon a have it he sat him down

Like he bro he come from GRE he come from that Greg papic Street Greg papic don’t give a [ __ ] if dunan he don’t care if you LeBron if you ain’t out there breaking a sweat bro your ass will get on the bench like so you know say he

Come from that bro he don’t care about that that star [ __ ] he care about who playing and I’mma tell you who played good for Houston that Whit more kid he like he ain’t gonna be a superstar bro but he gonna be a really really good role player bro he’s the one that kind

Of brought them back because he started cooking Loki he could play he had like 18 or 20 I think tonight actually Chevy Chevy Chevy you know what I’m talking about right Chevy and that’s who fny Smith remind me up but look finny Smith was able to play a phenomenal he played

His everybody played their role he was just able to set sh threes boom then you got Mel Bridges right that can play off ball boom then you got k that can shot create boom then you got Spencer then with he that you know he can play decent

Point guard he’s got to pass the ball boom then you got claxon that just could stay in the um dunker spot everybody BR this this is the second or third game Royce O’Neil and threw it to the other team I’m convinced bro that that that

They paying him to blow games bro no no wa respect Bryce has been phenomenal since he’s come to this team he has been himself no he has not bro wa wait wait har har I have listen he’s played hard no he hasn’t been always but you know what he always brings that grit

That hustle he’s willing to play small ball sensor we don’t have censors in games like I listen it’s going to be a shame having to lose Royce but I understand the business side not a no shame bro Pat him up no Jan I’m with you Jonathan

I’m game I you know why Finley Smith was able to play good because everybody was in the National this is the first time that everybody was in the natural position right Spencer was able to go off because Spencer had space to work even Spencer was picking his shots

Perfectly it was just everybody was just in a natural position to play ball that’s what I’m saying bro like Jack vgh gonna find a way to [ __ ] it up watch my only thing with my only thing with Spence was the fourth quarter at the end

Of the game he kept trying to make the shots by himself I’m like Spencer this is why you got benched because you try to make all these hero shots and it’s like pass the ball to your teammates you don’t got to keep going to the rim and

Miss but but look but but Jonathan you have to understand though he have to do it because they was they was they was they wasn’t they was denying the ball from cam Thomas and Mel bridg that’s why um that’s why Spencer was able to shoot they was denying the ball from them

That’s listen I don’t think Spence is a scrub I just feel like he don’t really be like so like basketball is like the floor of the game right so you ever played basketball in your life yeah man play in high school you have okay so when you play basketball

Right if somebody’s not passing the ball like don’t you get this interested honestly I knew my role when I was on my team it was just to basically defend no no no no no no no no no even if it’s a roll I’m just saying

If if if you never get the ball really won’t like won’t you get this interested if everybody is shooting you never getting shots so I don’t think it’s that Spencer struggling I just feel like he don’t get enough touches and I feel like with everybody chucking it’s kind of

Like he just get on we always like like I said Spencer you’re right Spencer made some mistakes but Spencer came through bro we needed Spencer to do what what he did bro because they was denying the ball from K Thomas and bridges so that’s the reason he was have all the space in

The world to work and it look at this this the scary part though this the this what I’m scared of hear me out the thing is let’s say if if Ben Simmons was because this what I’m talking about BK Hoops I know you got disagree and I’m

Not trying to diss Ben Simmons but imagine if Ben simm was Spencer tonight they denying the ball for everybody they denying the ball y’all saw that right Jonathan you saw that they denied the ball from cam Thomas they denied the ball from Bridges y’all saw that right

They denying the ball what is Ben Simmons gonna do then is he gonna do what did and attack that’s all I gotta say well you mean in the closing moments of the game like like uh Balon yes I mean he’s 610 he’s strong you know I

Mean but would he that’s that’s all BK who that’s all I gotta ask you would he attack the way because you know Spencer they was allowing Spencer to attack right right yeah I mean with the Rockets this game man I mean I think this game they they they

They could have won this game I mean just yes be honest with you bro so last night who was the one that posed the question can simm play together you said that bek right that was me that was the title of the show last night yeah okay okay so to

Answer your question bro to answer question they cannot because uh Nick Clon he showed tonight he can’t hit free thrs neither can Ben Sim’s bum ass you cannot have two yo bro we was up 97 we was 97 to 911 if made go we would have been up 101

91 so that [ __ ] made the game closer then Ro O’Neal did that boneh head ass play thenon at the end of the game did that bone ass play and if it wasn’t for shanon missing we would have win overtime and we don’t know what probably

At that point we lost all moment but to answer your question B we can’t play both of them because they both can’t [ __ ] hit free throws so you can’t have two [ __ ] down the stretch and and and when we was up when he missed them free throws and it went the

Timeout I I I swear bro I’m like yo I hope he make an adjustment and take this [ __ ] out the game I hope he make an adjustment and take him out like I because I’m like bro he can’t make free throws so to answer your question they can’t play together bro

They both can’t and then bries went to the line and he missed another free throw so cam Thomas needs to be the one shooting free throws bro nobody else he did and we won because of that thankfully you’re right me he’s not the greatest Pastor in

The world I mean who was who was um there was a couple of live shows I actually did and they were saying like oh anybody could pass and I was I forgot who it was man somebody was arguing with me on on the live stream I did in the

Morning time a couple of days ago but no Royce O’Neal would try to hit Claxton with a pass and claxon’s not even looking he’s like his head is to turned towards the basket and Royce O’Neal actually just hit claxon with a pass I’m like yo basketball IQ I mean these guys need

To shoot tomorrow these guys need to shoot free throw to they [ __ ] arms FL off literally yes I’m wait yeah I’m shocked I’m shocked at this season that our free throw has been so bad but that’s never been a problem for this team really even some of our

Worst have usually been better than this and remember in the Boston series Clon went 0 for1 in one of those games man yeah that was that was the last game I think wasn’t yeah I’m like you know they only lost that Boston series by by Collective of 17 points

But you see you see what I’m saying when people say Spencer Spencer ain’t that bad bro Spencer can really hoop but when he have options to hoop that he could do it with that be I just told you what it is what it is he don’t get the ball

Enough and he disinterested and then also bro like got guard har he’s controlling no no what I’m what I’m what I’m saying but he not the one shooting Bridges and cam Johnson the one shooting so what I’m saying is when you play on a team right if you got two people that’s

Shootting the most shots and then you can do cuz honestly like let’s be realistic Spencer Dem would do the same [ __ ] if not more than cam Johnson he can do the same [ __ ] Spencer could give you 15 if you said yo cam Johnson we Spencer can also give you like assist

Too bro we gotta give him prop right but I’m saying if you cut if you cut Johnson and like yo Spencer we gonna let you be the number two in the lineup spenc could do that so what I’m saying is he not really getting opportunities so people

Get Spencer I could tell on his face like he get dis interested like yo if I’m not getting the ball he get disinterested but then with certain lineups he do good like today you notice he was like more engaged now I’m telling made some mistakes at the end of the game

Too hold on hold onk ho this your problem it wasn’t for Spencer we wasn’t going to win either bro Spencer yeah they was denying the ball from Bridges and C he started sing a little bit at the end though so I respect that he made a couple mistakes

I’m not gonna get on him you you know it is unfortunately guys you know Spencer and mistakes though right unfortunately though it just seems like between Spencer n divorce is very imminent it’s been like that for the last two weeks and I just feel like there’s going to be

A move eventually unfortunately but hold on Jonathan but this this is this is it though because like Harlem was saying we finally had that’s why we look so good tonight we finally had the players that could help that that we was all in our natural position right everybody was

Finally in the natural position what I’ve been saying bro brid is not is not a center man he’s A’s not listen listen BK Hoops he’s not a he not a top Center but he’s a center he does everything that capella does you know what I mean like that’s he

Like yo he really a power forward bro he a power forward like like like at his height he could be a center if he had the weight but at his weight he’s a power FL bro no but no and even still BR but you can’t you look y’all keep

Saying that his skill his strengths has to be at the center position because of his strengths that’s you know it’s so you know one second one second gentlemen hold what strengths but he not a center not a center bro he strength meaning P under the rim if you play

Under The Rim you got to be a center position like Ben Simmons like if you play Under The Rim you got to be playing Center position that’s basically what it is I’m saying he doesn’t have achat we don’t match up to other centers around the end you slide up position

Hold on hold on hold on y’all if people play if if people play Under The Rim they have to play center position so you can space the floor that just makes sense bro that’s just that’s what it is but but listen listen yo I don’t I don’t

Know I don’t know agree with BK right but I’m gonna agree with him on on what the facts is Claxton is too small he can’t bang with these people bro so what I’m saying to you right is height wise height wise he a sinner but weightwise

He not he can’t B yo bro I watch Shan goon put his elbow in his chest and just laid the ball up it was no resistance but yo Harlem you’re not making s you not watching bro like he did that man it doesn’t matter if he get beat bro

It doesn’t matter if he get beat up by my grandmother he’s under get placed under underneath the rim so he got to play center position that’s you’re not making sense bro you’re not Mak listen hold hold one m one what Ian is saying is correct it’s just that yeah

He is tall and and but just the thing is is that Ivan doesn’t it’s still like we got a match up basketball’s about matchups and with Clon just doesn’t match up to fours and fives around the NBA bro he matches up more with fours than five

Like yeah he’s too fril man he’s really I bro that’s all I’m trying to say hold on let Jonathan talk Jonathan what you wait wait you know what’s so unfortunate we have two guys two big guys who play positionist basketball neither one of them can shoot a mid-range shot like

More than once like that’s so unfortunate if these two guys could shoot mid-range shots and three-pointers this team would be like one of the best teams in basketball but you have two big guys who can dunk talk make a Claxton and Simmons they could dunk make a layup

But they can’t shoot mid-range shots or three-point shots like that’s such a big negative consider because eventually this team will need to get a traditional big like this team will not ever win a championship with Simmons or Claxton alone they need a big big though yo y gota y gota y gota

Remember gotta remember like Jonathan said Jonathan made a good point even Ben Simmons played under the rim too so he got to go Center if you play Under The Rim you got to go Center man that’s what because even when people saying yo cam Thomas didn’t pass when Ben Simmons was

Here who who C cam Thomas Go pass it to Ben Simmons on top of the key you know mean Ben Ben can post up FR bro that’s the only that’s the only but but but Harlem you bro like you saying Harlem Harlem you saying okay bro that’s

Back he fra bro Harlem Harlem I agree with you bro but his strength is going to I’m not trying to [ __ ] on the [ __ ] he just fra bro like you get what I’m saying so all right so look I’mma put it to you like this let me tell you this so

If if Clon was like 260 right so look this is the problem with him last year remember when they played Philly in that first game Philly hit like a career high like 30 something threes on them right and you know why they did that because Claxton could not guard and feed oneon-one

So every time he got the ball they doubled and they hit a three right so this is why Claxton boking up helps the Nets because now you don’t have to double he can play oneon-one he’s a good Defender so he has the length bro but because he’s so frail

Body you feel me like people gonna keep getting open shots bro Harem listen bro this this was the thing hold on hold on so when it goes to when BK who was talking about the contract of claxon I don’t I don’t think claxon should get that money but are

Like but hold on hold on bro like when you say about claxon being fra or whatever Clon ain’t that bad the way he and y’all gotta understand that even if we get even if like we play everybody right because we agree that this lineup is good right everybody’s in a natural

Position we still we still NC we still AC bro it’s going to take years and years and years of development everybody’s in the natural position but they still not going to compete with sers who it doesn’t matter who we get but back to Bk point though Claxton

Been frail for Years bro he said last year I’mma bul up I’mma get in okay hold on hold on hold let’s do this let’s do this let’s do this okay let’s do this because y y not see I’m trying to make sense out of this so s go right this is

This a BK Hoops guy right s right the one that’s in the Rockets right he’s the one that say he’s better than than CLA am I correct he is better than hold on hold hold on no no let me say this let me say this let me say this does he play

Good defense does he play better defense than collection no we hooped his ass up hold on wait wait wait wait wait hold on were double teaming Shang goon in that first half man okay okay listen listen listen so Shang goon in the offense is way better than is better no

I won’t say way better it’s better than claxon he is way better bro I’m not gonna hold you he way better because he he he got he got moves but that dude cannot play he cannot play defense like Clon bro he’s solid bro he’s solid he not trash

Thomas no CL does play better defense but you didn’t say Clon play better defense you said shanon don’t play at all shanon do play defense just listen this what I’m trying to say CU y think I’m trying to be it’s levels to the defense though Clarkson is a

Little bit of yeah he is he got high level defense I said that yo bro listen I agree with you the only thing I’m saying is he frail body that’s it he got high LEL defense he’s solid on offense he’s just BR that’s my only that’s my

Only thing withon is he fra bro that’s it I have nothing bad to say okay hold on hold on this what I’m saying though bro when it goes to the offense that’s what people people quick to look at offense I get it I I I get it

That’s why I’m a C Thomas fan I’m not talking about offense bro I’m talking about him being able to guard people and he too fra I’m not even talking about offense I’m talking about he can’t really stop nobody because he fra I watchest damn I can’t agree with that to with my

Yo bro look I watched it right because I kept hearing BK say yes no no no funny [ __ ] I kept hearing BK say yo bro I just see people move him out the way right and I’m in my mind I’m like yo BK Hoops talking [ __ ] right cuz I didn’t

Agree with that [ __ ] bro I sat here on my couch God could strike me if I’m lying I said yo I want to see what BK’s talking about I seen shanon come right down the court bro put his whole arm and Clacks in the stomach and move him damn

Near out of bounds and lay ising but listen no bro you just going by the N okay s goon is better offensively so a lot of people can’t stay in um in front of at St goon but every time when Clon leads bro our defense don’t look the same bro it’s

Just that’s why we keep him on the floor that’s just let OJ let OJ get up in here man how you doing OJ what up what up what up what’s going on yo BK and before you start this [ __ ] about my audio remember my audio is always good it’s whenever

People come up here so don’t Target I’m just letting you know cuz my [ __ ] be A1 and then when mad people get man when I go on no no no listen listen to what I said my audio be good before mad people come up so just notice

How my last thing before OJ mayo go on thing my last thing is bro we always quit to see people like Clon does got some weaknesses I’m not saying that he doesn’t but we forget about people’s strengths man like Dennis Smith bro Dennis Smith defense tonight was off the

Rocket it’s like that every night I [ __ ] with Dennis Smith defense like that has been great got yo bro I got let OJ talk and then I’m I’m G get I’m G respond to Ivan go ahead OJ what up o hly what up what up honestly I don’t really have too

Much to say uh I didn’t really get to watch today’s game that much I just watched probably the last four minutes or so that was the most important part of the gameo yeah watch saw we were up by like 30 the whole game cuz I was watching uh another college game and

Then I look check the score and we were only up by like a few points in the fourth quarter I’m like yep here we go fourth quarter so I don’t know I guess we pulled it out rockets on it back to back and I I I don’t really watch the

Game I’ll probably watch the highlights or a condensed game tomorrow but OJ who I who I say we’re gonna win today because a cam Thomas right 20 20 plus effort said yesterday it happened he had 37 too he stood on business T you know what he said to the intervie yeah you

Know what he said to the interview he said I felt like myself tonight somebody who said like I feel confused I feel I’m being played in random spurts he said tonight I felt like yeah he said I felt like myself tonight which was important no Thomas he said he felt like

He was playing his he’s starting yeah yeah I understand if he has if Cam Thomas has a good Defender bored up on him he can’t try to go and like try to score on that Defender he needs to move the basketball and let them set some

Screens doing that yo bro my only thing I don’t like man is when you guys always try to make it seem like he not doing that cam Thomas played defense tonight he rebounded tonight he assisted tonight but yet and still y’all come up here yo cam need to do this

Better but the [ __ ] that he do but the [ __ ] that he do good never want to pinpoint that bro did he not steal a ball from jayen wait wa wait wait did he not steal a ball from wait wait wait did he not steal a ball from Jaylen green

Yes I didn’t hear you come up here and say he did that did he not rebound tonight yes I didn’t hear you come up here and compliment that did he make free throws like yo bro come on man like yeah gota stop bro like so the [ __ ] come

Off is hate right so hate is when somebody always point you point out everything do he do wrong but never point out what he do right bro all right so when I when I when I point stop bro when I when I point out Ben Simmons two points against

Kyrie Irving I didn’t hear none of yall say anything y say yeah good this is my problem bro no differ respect bro I I try to be as nice as I can and but a lot of people go by stats bro because last your last your last Channel I was watching

You said The Scouting Report is C Thomas doesn’t pass or whatever bro he been defending he been doing all Thomas is a liability come on bro stop yeah bro and the thing is too like that’s that’s the reason why I be telling people yo whoever listening use

Your eye test bro you can’t always go by stats and what my eye test tells me that cam Thomas is Never Gonna Be of the greatest Defender because you know his the way he shape or whatever but he is a decent on Bard Defender he does he get

Lost hey yo bro you ain’t watching bro he got better jayen yo bro Jaylen green is super fast super athletic cam Thomas stole the ball from him bro but nobody come up here and appraise him for that it’ll be oh Cam Thomas didn’t do yo bro

We got to stop the man been defending the man been rebounding the man assisting the man scoring the man been hitting free throws so give credit where credit is do bro that’s my only thing come and get on don’t get up get on the hold on Tomy Tomy passing came out

Lea and Bounds bro we just missed shots but he’s leap and he turned it over a couple of times and I got on yo bro no no no hey yo BK but but this is the problem right is yo come up here and y’ll say yo cam Thomas

Turned the ball over six times right and cool I agree you got the right toque that he did he did right hold on hold on wait wait wait he did and I’m saying I agree with you right but on the flip side of that the man assisted rebounded

And did other things but you will ignore that so that’s why I come off like hate because your pinpoint Thomas didn’t do this no listen to what I just said we know that but he doing other things outside of scoring so your pinpoint cam Thomas has six turnovers but you won’t

Pinpoint yo cam Thomas has six rebounds cam Thomas had six assists so it comes off bro when I said Ben Simmons had two points against Kyrie irban and I I wasn’t up here when you said that bro I wasn’t up here when you said that hold

On hold on my last thing beat K Hoops that’s that’s the reason why I like when people use this this the reason why a like of people use it test too I mean analytics work sometimes but the my eyes yeah yeah when cam Thomas so if you using your eyes then you should

Be saying all the [ __ ] that cam is doing did you not see your let me show this because a lot of people don’t understand either when cam Thomas is on the floor it helps other players even if Cam Thomas don’t pass you be like y ey what

Do you mean by that well I mean by said in interview bro tonight he said when I’m on the floor he said it helps people like Bridges SMI and these guys get shot do y do yall think Jac Von is really satisfied with this win uh list listen the listen the best

Wa wait wait wait wait wait wait wait wait wait the best decision jock made was starting Thomas tonight the best decision jock made is keeping Thomas in the closing lineup tonight if he didn’t do those two things to do good about John listen to what o listen to what OJ

Just said because OJ said the same [ __ ] I was thinking didn’t make a decision to play cam Thomas cam Johnson didn’t play that’s why because we all know if cim Johnson played cam Thomas would have never had 37 we would have lost so it’s not like he made a bus decision

Like lost the game because Houston didn’t hit thre that they normally would hit I mean no we we almost lost because the stupid hack of CLA play and this is where a problem is with Ben and cl you no no wait wait o you can’t you can’t play them in close wait

Wait wait wait you can’t play them in closing quarters you can have Ben be the playmaker but the thing is subbing out Claxton for offense then putting him back in for defense I don’t I don’t really like that too much because it’s like you’re playing him sporadically and

That doesn’t feel like cohesive enough so they got to figure that out but hold I want to resp I want to respond to OJ though you got to live with the good and the bad bro just what much bad though man why why do you have to live with the why

You because hold on listen listen listen the reason why I say you gota live the good and the bad meaning cam Thomas can’t defend the biggest players but you got to live with his offensive CL not gonna hold on hold on hold on Classon can’t Clon can’t make

Free throws but he got he’s a good health Defender he makes our defense better so you got to live with these people bad and good I don’t think it’s worth the money can I question man yo this is specifically for you but I want to ask y all this

Question if Cam Thomas didn’t start the night number one do y’all think the Nets is even up by 20 and number two and number two do y’all even think the Nets even win this game the answer is probably no exactly it’s probably no right so at the end of the day just off

Of that I’m doing the same [ __ ] Jack vaugh said out his own mouth I pulled cam Thomas in the room and I said hey cam listen we putting you to the bench and he said all right coach whatever you need me to do if I’m Jack BAU tomorrow

I’m bringing cam Johnson 100 Mil 100 Mil ass in the room and I’m saying yo bro listen this is a business decision you going on the [ __ ] bench period bro period you’re going on the bench won this game hold on what the only reason why we won this game is

Because because we have a Fred here’s his numbers 38.6% from three and he went one for seven if he hits three out of seven we lose this game that’s fact that we was even in the game is because of Cam thas bro hold on ho

The Rockets were on a back to back we’re losing that game every time BK Hoops you’re not telling the whole story though bro fin Smith bro you’re acting like fin Smith can’t play [ __ ] be guarding [ __ ] bro he’s a dogo like listen Fred Fleet he shoots 38% from three almost 30 n% from

Three he went one for seven if he hits three three three out of seven of those threes which y bro because the next actually playing defense tonight so it’s like act like act there they have Tire legs that’s why they couldn’t shoot anything they came back

Wait and this goes back to we only won by two bro so they wasn’t that tired they actually came back yo hold on OJ mayo didn’t watch the game bro they were playing mad hard yo bro they was throwing yo watch Ian Ivan Ivan I’ve been playing this game a

Long if you up by 20 points you’re not playing hard you’re not playing hard you’re not yo that’s a lie bro because the other team could just be better bro that’s it n you got I just said yo bro I just said with my own eyes and watch

Hold on wait wait wait yooo been playing a long time too so I don’t want to hear I just watch the Nick smack listen I just watch the Nick smack the Nuggets by like 38 points bro and you telling me the Nuggets wasn’t playing hard so the nuggets are gonna

Win everying you talking about are the Nuggets gonna win every single but but but who just said if somebody’s winning by 20 the other team not playing hard I just like like that I told you if you play hard you going be in games man I’ve been

Watch bro I just watch yo bro I just hold on bro I just watched the Nick smack them by like 38 and then I watched today the Nick smack Mii by like 20 bro and the heat was playing hard what you talking about bro so you say you’re

Saying matter if it was at home bro do they’re traveling they’re on a back to back they’re going back to Houston they just want to get back home they don’t [ __ ] care yeah I’ll say I’ll say this I hold on hold on y let me let me say one fact

Ho you see hold on BK Hoops drop off and come back in drop off and come back in I know you gonna get mad see here you go the [ __ ] again bro just Dr it ain’t my [ __ ] Bro all right all right just drop off drop off and come back

In y yo BK Hoops yeah I want to say something bro you keep saying they wasn’t bro it’s B you got to watch the game again bro they they was dropping each other they was playing so hard bro they was falling everything I I know when teams aren’t playing hard they

Weren’t playing hard the first half no see see what JP actually said Houston started putting pressure on the next second half and they crumbled and they crumbled in the second half but hold on BK who do you know why I don’t agree with JP though I don’t age because we

Were still winning we only started falling off when we went to the fourth quarter because it’s a psych psychological thing I feel like I feel like we because we be messing up Ian wait wait wait Ivan it was the hack of CLA thing that just completely killed momentum when you miss four free

Throws that gives the other team you know moment shot only I think it’s a psychological thing for us to be honest more than anything previous quarters previous games I agree but this game it was really that and that’s something that they have to adjust to they should have

Put Clon out after the first two Miss free throws I would have subed them out right then and there for no but not gonna lie this team got against this team no offense I know everybody of course like everybody has opinion Jonathan and you you know BK who we all

See games differently I know people like Royce O’Neal but Royce O’Neal without without Dennis Smith junior bro I don’t trust our defense that much without listen I listen I hear Royce is in a lot of trade rumors today I’m hearing the nuggets the Mavericks the Bucks Suns

Even they all want them I think the the Timberwolves would be an interesting team Leonard Miller he was a a a dra a draft pick that the Nets were interested in but they didn’t they didn’t get him he didn’t fall in their uh Within lines of getting him so they might they might

Want him in a draft pick from the Timberwolves if they were I want to say one thing too though I want to say one thing BK hoop sometimes sometimes yo the sometimes the weaker opponent is just a better team bro for example Luca single-handedly beat the Suns by himself

He beat Chris Paul um he beat Booker by himself the series the back though yeah that’s what I’m saying he did it bro he did you can’t pump you can’t beat that’s all right let me ask you something you ever played play pool before um Ivan like Billards you said what you ever

Played Billards before no I never played no no all so like you’re play you know it’s like eight ball or something like that if your opponent actually scratches on the eight ball I mean you’re not going to just actually bump beat your chess man you know what I’m saying this

Is what the equivalent of that was you know you actually you know your opponent actually scratches on the eight ball man that’s like they they should have the Nets actually should have lost this game I love my Brooklyn Net no they listen they should win every game that’s about

Back to back they should they have talent they have guys who’ve been to the playoffs and that’s what’s been so infuriating without Simmons this team still has a lot of playoff caliber players but they haven’t put it together because they haven’t played for each other they’ve gone into business for

Themselves in a couple games listen Jonathan are you actually satisfied with this win over here man listen listen listen listen I’m satisfied because cam Thomas stepped up and proved to everybody that he can be a starter that’s what this is about they weren’t really playing hardk let’s muel Bridges cam Thomas Clon

They should go nowhere right now they’re our youngest guys are so skilled guys they’re players that we can build around there’s no point in trying to trade them right now even can I say something to you John please you can’t but give me one second I agree with John I agree

With and here’s the thing today there was a source that said even if Houston Rockets were willing to give the Nets all their draft picks back from Mel Bridges the Nets still wouldn’t do it because they want to build around him so that’s a lot that that’s a lot of hold

On probably going disagree you know what I think would have been I think they would have lost even worse you’d be like y i what what do you mean by that right right without hold on the way Dennis Smith Jun the way denn uh fny no I’m

Sorry Denny uh finny Smith was playing I think we would have if he would have kept he bro he did not miss I think would have been ass and he played good defense it would have been worse for the I think they got lucky that he got

Injured he got you know that’s how I feel bro I just want to say something to John yo John what you just said I disagree with about about what my friend not that you said nothing wrong but you just said that cam Thomas proved today he should be in a star lineup only

Reason why I say I disagree with that is Cam Thom has been showing since last year he should have been a starter you’re right this is not so this is not the game that he showed it he been showing it the coaches got to idiots I mean OJ’s

With me OJ do you do are you satisfied with this win over here OJ on the Houston team back yo bro he didn’t even watch the game bro so he can’t even give you an accurate take though true har true he a’t watched the game bro so how

You asking him he say he only watched the last four minutes wa that was the most important part part of the game really man no not really n no it wasn’t come on we was missing one of our important pieces that was taken off bro like come

On like go ahead John go ahead John no Harlem you’re right man he has been proving for over a year now he should be a starter I just felt like tonight was that extra validation even said to himself I played my game tonight I felt like myself and that’s important for his

Development and that’s what sucks is this coaching St is supposed to be a developmental team and we haven’t seen it like how can you call yourself developmental you’re hindering I mean Thomas has to like build what they call neuropath ways pretty much man he has to reprogram his

Brain to actually like not just go out there and score score score but to actually look make y bro you you want to know what’s crazy bro I’m about to describe BK hoops right now BK Hoops is the coach on the sideline right that it don’t matter if you make the

Game-winning shot when you go in the locker room he gonna pull up like yo bro you could have did this better you could did that better if you’re ja V are you happy with win right now you looking hey yo John that’s the type of Co I had a

Meme in my head when you said that I had a meme in my head and I’m just cracking up bro I’m telling you yo bro that’s BK Hoops bro you make the game ask you something man if you’re ja vgh are you happy with this win right here I’m happy

Bro a win is a win that’s all win is a win bro exactly that’s Brooklyn culture win is a win man you you don’t think that’s that’s any kind of mistakes to clean up or anything like that of course of course of course BK hopes listen listen

I’m not happy about listen bro I’m not happy about the win but like Ivan said it’s a win if they blow him out by 20 I’m like all right great job but if you lose by by I mean you you win by two points bro

But BK ho BK hoop we were missing Finley bro Smith like he was going off like come on Yo listen I seen all right so early I was watching locked on Nets right I don’t know always agree but Doug Nory he makes some good points and shout

Out to you too John CU I see that they shouted you out with your comment bro so that was thank you man thank you man um so I want to say this right Doug Nory said most likely it don’t matter how many games the Nets lose this year Jack

Vaugh is probably not gonna get fired but what I like that he said was he said next year Steve Nash money come off the books right and then at that point they could probably make a decision on if they want to keep vaugh or not so this is what I’m thinking right vaugh

Might not get fired but I’m hoping that we could get some pieces at the trade deadline we could build those pieces that we could go into next season with get rid of vgh and then Implement a new coach to go with who you keep and new guys from the deadline that you

Implement Tylo he’s gonna be a free agent after the Clippers I would get Tylo man he’s somebody that lot he gon be a free agent he probably sign back you think no no he’s ready to leave the Clippers I think he’s ready for a new opportunity yo y you’re not gonna like

My bro but I think I think this this starting lineup I think the starting lineup it’s a good starting lineup I think if you take if you add if you take away Spencer and add Ben I think it’ll be worse bro I’m warming up to DLo potentially

Going back to Brooklyn if you guys watch the LA was crazy hey yo hold on yo bro yo John No Cap yo John I [ __ ] with you bro I was watching the game too yo bro listen man I swear yo I swear to God yo

John I [ __ ] with you bro CUA like you watch these other games yo bro I said the same [ __ ] when DLo came down and made that three I said I said yo bro if DLo could play like this in Brooklyn I’ll take him back with open arms but I

But I that game went to a double overtime man the Lakers couldn’t even see you know what though but who’s making the L W though the Lakers won no I know by point I know they lucky yeah yeah but here’s the thing though D’s having a career high SE wait the thing

Is D’s having a career high season it’s not like he’s having a a midseason and this team needs offense and his contract isn’t the worst contract in the world how come nobody wants him then um they want draft capital and the Lakers tell you what it is now talking

About the Nets I’m talking about Atlanta doesn’t want I’m tell you what it is right now I’m tell you what it is right now the Lakers is starting to have second thoughts bro DLo been going crazy and I think that’s what’s going on is the Lakers is like

Bro I don’t want to get rid of this guy he’s yo bro D’Angelo Russell not a bum bro he can give you 20 a game bro D is nice bro D nice yo bro Kelly UB do y’all know who Kelly UB is yeah yeah he’s with the 7

Okay how many of y’all watch Charlotte Hornets games not many okay how many of y’all have watch charl at Hornet games only when they play the nuts there’s no reason okay cool Kelly Kelly oh no no no no no I’m saying that to say this so sometimes you

Not really familiar with people so you think they a bum right Kelly o before he went to the Sixers was on the Hornets d do y’all know what his average was so one by one I want y’ to tell me what do y’all think Kelly UB average was one by one

Um my thing is did he make any all-star teams who cares yo no no no no yo bro just answer the question bro but like be honest’s on a minimum he’s on a minimum contract yo bro but just answer the question what do you think his average

Was in Charlotte like 11 okay 11 all right BK uh I would say f 16 points okay John around 20 bro he was averaging 20 a game bro oh ch ch 20 20 a game but you see how how like OJ was like probably 11 that’s cuz

OJ probably thought he was some bum that wasn’t really skilled you feel that’s what I’m saying why has he making an Allstar team then uh Harlem come on man bro bro cuz he not a superstar player he was he was doing this off the bench is what I’m saying

He wasn’t a superstar bro he not starting but what I’m saying is D’Angelo taking 40 shots a game because they’re terrible no no no no right but but what I’m saying is D’Angelo Russell can average five more points than what Kev Kelly UB is is doing he could come to

The Nets and easily score 25 a game that’s what I’m saying he’s electric but he’s a shot chucker his his efficiency is not great I know but here’s the thing though wait wait here’s the thing though DLo is not a playmaker but having Ben Simmons do the playmaking for DLo sets

Up DLo to make better shots DLo is a better catch he’s a better catch and shoot guy than Spencer is Spencer is not really a catch and shoot guy because he yeah if D came here and shot a bunch of Threes that’s fine but I don’t want to

Take contested mid-range shots like he usually does all all I’m saying is I think dowlo and cam Thomas could be a very very efficient back court defense not def I’m talking about on offense I’m talking off I’m talking about on offense because like I’m saying too man I know

This is this is 2024 but you guys still play some def bro but but it’s like BK let me ask you something bro you’ve been working your job for what 20 plus years okay when you first got to your job did you know everything nope did you get better over

Time yep so that’s what I’m saying about cam Thomas he’s to get better a pro athlete with a regular job it’s just’s not BR [ __ ] he’s going to be too small his whole career he just never going to be a good Defender he I think

They got Miss at 6 63 I think that’s being nice BR 22 years old not 22y is never bro to say a 22y old is never gonna get better in defense is terrible bro he’s too small well CP3 what do you mean too small he’s six he’s 63 bro he’s

63 Fleet in his prime in his prime and he was like you know he was a good Defender bro Fred Van Fleet is still a good Defender he don’t be getting cooked he’s he’s older now not for nothing I’m talking about not for nothing I’mma throw somebody out there for

Y’all y’all might think he too old but how y’all feel about Cal Larry no no no no no can wait wait can I be honest I think be M funny with the not she like no wait wait can I be can I be honest I

Think he wait I think the heat shot with foot trading way louder because he was a veteran leader for that team I mean Terry R so bad I know but look what Terry’s done offense has not been good no but here’s the thing look at the heat

They’re very small now they got Duncan Robinson Tyler hero now you have Terry Rosier dun Rob seven yeah there small guys they can’t go up against big guys like Giannis Joelle like got bam though Bam’s the only tall guy Kevin Love I mean he’s not going to defend Joel and

B actually make Joel andb play defense so he can actually space the floor and you know what I think the Nets is realistically gonna do BK I think they realistically gonna get D’Angelo Russell and Ru haimura for finny Smith and for Royce O’Neal if the N do

That he’s athletic R is athletic he heyo I’m not really on him NE bro but I’m G tell you something I’mma tell you something I’m not a haimura fan but he fits the timeline with the young players because I think he like 22 23 help us though I’d be H to having

Christian Wood instead of Haim MOA with El I mean having wood at least gives us L why don’t we just you gotta take on D’Angelo Russell um um and not that badk contract’s not he’s only making 18 it’s not going to help it’s not going

To help having him on the floor man it’s just the Nets is not stupid though they not g they not gonna give you Christian Wood because he the back up the ad now if you if if deel Russell he on does he help this team actually win any type of

Games hell yeah bro bro without Ben Simmons without Ben Simmons Ben simm with Ben Simmons they win games if you surround Ben with offense you’re going to win that that’s how that’s how been you surround with offense heyo bro D’Angelo Russell comes respectfully I’m putting Ben on the bench bro he’s not

Starting over D’Angelo Russell yes yes really you know why yeah because yo bro because because Russell does what Ben Simmons don’t do shoots the [ __ ] ball I know but then but but wait but wait Harlem but Ben but Ben playm makes when DLo doesn’t playmake that’s been D’s problems

Everybody thinks he’s a playmaker when he’s just he scores he scores pretty good with without the playmaking stuff for that you got to ask yourself a question I take it back to what BK said yesterday which was a damn good uh statement that he said can you play Clon

And Ben Simmons and if and if I and if and and if I had to make a business decision who fits better with Claxton Ben Simmons or D’Angelo Russell I think we all know the [ __ ] easy easy answer there bro and it’s not Ben Simmons we’ve already Ben Simmons man that’s but wait

But wait Harlem who’s gonna who’s gonna playmake for that first unit though if it’s not Ben Simmons because D’Angelo Russell he been playmaking on the Lakers he’s not the strongest playmaker he’s not yo bro do y watch the Lakers John I know you do BK do you watch the

Lakers yes I do I watched them okay so if you watch Lakers you telling me that your ey test tells you LeBron is the only one playmaking out there no I know okay then so what are we talking about can actually play make my thing Ben Simmons puts more pressure on

The defense D’Angelo really doesn’t exactly thank you if you put CL into the banks who you put in that Center bro see there’s the query there lies the problem saying Noah Clowny bro Noah Clowny not ready broown come bro Noah Clowny gonna come up there and pull a [ __ ] scoot

Henderson stop it he not ready what about wend Carter Jr I mean he could play he could be play some Center minutes too there’s if he was an option for them so OJ and BK if Noah Clowney is ready right y’all keep pushing Noah Clowny why don’t Jack Von Play Noah

Clowny because he’s an idiot I mean I’m not mad listen I’m not mad at that Jake but I mean he’s starting Spencer D you think he’s making the right decisions Spencer should be on a different team right now I’m still surprised bro yo bro Spencer

Is not trash though bro so these Tak on Spencer is crazy I ain’t wor you seen the you seen what he actually been putting up zero points two points how many times I got to tell you fellas he’s just disengaged bro just you disengaged they don’t mean it trash

Just he always takes bad shots I understand that it’s just we gota look at the logistics we’re not going to resign him he wants a bigger role he thinks he’s still a starter when he’s at best the Sixth Man on a championship Squad so it’s like we don’t

Bro we don’t have we don’t have to go back and forth because we know who’s getting traded right right right right what we do need to go back and forth with is the PE because look y’all help been on well not you John but they help

Been yo you need to play Ben Simmons we could get this person we get yo y’all gota use your common sense too right by Ben Simmons coming back if the Nets decide to get another point guard Dennis Smith is not playing that keep going over your head

Bro Ben Dennis Smith not playing if they get the Johnson Murray or if they get Titus Jones or they get D’Angelo Russell If Ben Simmons is healthy who’s not playing Den Smith I’m worried about too I’m worried about Lonnie Walker too they’ve moved cam back to the bench then

Lonnie kind of gets no but I’m just but I’m just saying like y’all keep ignoring that bro Dennis Smith not gonna play and he gotta play because he the best defender whatever point guard y get back he gonna be a better Defender but that person gonna be a better offensive

Player SMI been playing his ass off is it right to him to not play no more Smith is awesome but I’m not going to lose sleep over him not playing what y you bugging bro you bugging bro he’s great on he’s like a dog on defense but

He can’t shoot at all no but he had some offensive plays though last few games saying is y’all keep saying that y’all want somebody who could defend right cuz I just sat here and said y want Ben Simmons starting over Russell so if that’s the case and they get Russell you want Russell

Starting over a defensive player no my only thing is Russell’s not the best playmaker though Harlem you need Ben Simmons to set him up for shots I think he’s a better a catch with no scratch Ben Simmons if he’s starting and they get D’Angelo Russell right who’s gonna

Who gonna be somebody’s not playing right right it’s probably gonna be Dennis Smith not playing because they just traded for Russell so Russell be the backup and you and honestly speaking you think D’Angelo Russell wants to leave the Lakers to come to the bench for the Nets he going to want to start

Right so make it make sense you know what I’m saying it’s gonna be a whole lot of it’s tough to make it sense because whatever move this team makes you’re gonna you’re gonna hurt somebody on the team and their role is going to get diminished so that I think that’s

Why no trades are going on because you’re going to affect multiple players on this team who have roles on this team and they might get either cast aside and traded or they would go back in the bench so it’s tough you’re right it’s tough or or they might trade Nick

Clon I don’t wish that on him they might trade him and then they might [ __ ] around CA Ben Simmons could play the small board Center but here’s the problem with Ben Simmons he came out and set it out his own mouth I’m a point guard so he’s

Held bent on this position right so when you have to first of all bro I’m just gonna give ja Von credit for this he probably got a manic so many egos in there because people got egos bro you feel what I’m saying so somek BK BK can you put a Ben Simmons

Interview before the game on YouTube like what he said yeah please yeah let’s see what he said about coming back because I he says very interesting things I want who who who didn’t get to see it to see it let’s see that you still there

OJ yeah I’m here you tired today huh man you’re not talking much watching how old are you bro like 22 you said yeah oh so you’re a young guy you just really started watching basketball then started watching basketball 2016 or like NBA I watched basketball since I

Was like five so so like so like pretty much your go to basketball is probably going to be like the Lucas and the J morance cuz this is who you growing up on pretty much there it is right there top man all right hold on let me turn the volume up on This About joining the team up it was great I feel great um it was good to just be on the floor and get up and down and play and get some uh life situational um things going on for me so um I’m excited to be back and looking

Forward to it sh said that it’s very likely that you’re going to return next week just for you what’s the excitement level about getting back out there on the court next week back here at bark blazs in front of the fans uh I just

Want to have an impact I know I want to come in and win Games been with lately so um get back on track um I’m looking forward to just you know playing my role and helping this team win you mentioned before that this injury feels a little

Different for you when it comes to the recovery process with you getting back what makes it different about you knowing that you’re ready um I think just having that confidence in getting hit you know going up and down and having different bodies around and uh different being in different situations

On the floor for myself so and then feeling good the next day you know that’s the next day is a big sign of that so um you know look for to waking up and ready to go tomorrow so yeah more relief or like you said kind of UR get

Back on the team some game yeah to get back and be back Health you know there’s no point out here when it’s you know it’s opportunity for you know I could hurt myself even further or something like that so um you know I want to come

Back and be ready for my guys and play the level I can play What specifically are you looking forward to when it comes to you know you mentioned wanting to have an impact what areas you um every you’ve gotten to travel to parce the team you traveled trip just how did

That time being back with the team kind of help build you ready for this moment um I think just being around the guys and you know being involved with the team you doing Paris and playing and new experiences um always helps and then obviously you know the more I’m able to

Be on the floor the the easier it is for my teammates to know I’m come next soon so um today was great um great in terms of progress and getting back on the floor the rehab process from this impin did it defer what you went through you know last season this

Summer definitely because I felt like I was starting from zero you know uh with this one you know I at least had you know a lot of work I put in Prior so I wasn’t at zero I felt like I was just you know dealing with that injury in

That area um so I was able to keep that strength um and other areas and just work on what I need to work on in terms of reology change do you feel like that’s kind of helped you too get up that up speed fast yeah uh to an extent you know

I feel like basketball is reading the react game so I think in instincts play a lot of you know I can’t tell you every play that’s what’s out there and best looks so I’m ready and excited a stepbystep process and you know it’s one kind of one game at a time

For you just kind of what’s the goal for that first game that you want to see and feel win just win we need some wins so that’s that’s the only thing I want this game conversation about how you’re and you know how you that’s that’s a question for them um I

Expect you to play my role you know win win no matter [Applause] what oh man so what was so what was so bad about what he said though no he said everywhere he said he wants to help this team in every facet so let’s see it I

Want to see him stick to his strengths but I want to see him show confidence getting to the rim even if he misses just keep scoring when you have a mismatch on you don’t don’t don’t pass the ball you know like just you have a chance take it you see confidence and

The only thing that I got from that Ben Simmons injury is I’m gonna come back and dominate oh my back hurt two months later I’m getting there only well like I said I mean you know like if you had a a healthy Ben Simmons I think we win this Rockets game

Very easily you know what bro I’m not a biased person bro so so so I’m gonna be honest I have a friend right he’s around he’s around um BK Hoops age right a friend I’ve been knowing him for a while he from Harlem like me he live in

California I’m GNA give you a true story because I’m not biased at all right he calls me earlier from Cali yo Wayne what’s good we talking I’m like yo I’m like I do this podcast all right I’m telling him this and I’m going tell Y what he

Said I said y’all do this podcast and I said I got a friend on there that think Ben Simmons is nice I said Ben Simmons is a [ __ ] bum this what I’m telling my Ben sim a [ __ ] bum and I always tell his goddess my friend says yeah he is a bum

And then I said to my friend after I said yo he always got a [ __ ] bad back he need to retire my friend went from Ben Simmons is a bum to Y Wayne but I had a bad back my [ __ ] I know how I feel you feel me and then he kept trying

To use that as like an excuse but I’m like bro the thing wait wait wait wait wait wait wait here’s the difference between you and my friend BK no offense yall not rich so if you have a bad back it’s gonna take a longer process Ben Simmons is a millionaire

These guys have the best doctors the best Round the Clock treatment bro so hear you can only do so much there’s not like a magic pill you can take no but wait but wait B understand I understand where HS come from is you think people who have

Resources you know we live we live a tough we live in a tough economy right I see guys so there’s like a health click around my block that’s people on crutches people on leg support stuff you know they don’t have the uh the Medicare stuff like that to heal over a short

Amount of time it’s a long long time allete playing in the National Basketball Association this whole game relies onism bro he’s not just standing Sho he’s like jumping around yeah y’ guys must not understand the power of money Magic Johnson had HIV if Magic Johnson was poor like all of us

We’re poor compared bro it’s not different bro bro no it’s not bro the money that he got is why he got the Medicine he got Ben Simmons got so much money again he can have round to round clock people working on his back bro should not be in this you don’t think

They’re they’re doing that no I don’t bro pay millions of dolls a year that’s are trying everything losing money on I specifically remember Ben Simmons saying this past summer like oh I couldn’t even sit in a car just gotur a little while ago yeah but that was like few months

Before that I don’t think this happened like within the last few weeks bro I that was with that injury yo I don’t I don’t think listen man Michael Porter Jr had the same exact stands there and shoots no no no hear me out bro Michael Porter Jr had the same injury Ben

Simmons got how is it that Michael Porter Jr had the same exact injury bro listen to what I’m saying the same exact injury not different the same exact oh my God the man had the same exact injury and he’s playing and Ben Simmons is not stoping Michael Porter Jun just stands

There yeah Ben Simmons is Ben Simmons if he just stood there he would be playing right now but he just he has to jump around and like get blocks and dunks that you need your back for that Michael por Jr is not doing that yeah but Benes

Ben Sim is a play he doesn’t re aggravated yeah but here’s the thing though Ben Sim is like one of those types of players if he gets even a little win or something he’s not going to push it but there are players that I saw I saw this Lakers player Guy Twisted

His ankle he played two overtime quarters he didn’t have to but he did let me just read how come Kyrie Urban didn’t play it when he and let me just read what Claude Smith said bro because he’s Kyrie Ben’s press conference is just a teaser for

The Gulu that’s the same [ __ ] I say only only people like you and OJ is going to believe this B bro what do you want him to say they’re asking him questions what are you supposed to say no I’m terrible I suck I’m play again no no not

That he wants to play he wants to play yo bro he don’t want to play he want to go to Italy the Fashion Week my boy stop it I don’t want to play bro because he knows if he doesn’t play he’s not gonna get another contract again he’s not

Gonna get paid any money the next time ding ding ding ding ding ding ding you just H you just you you just hit it OJ we have a winner listen to what hold on listen to what you just said OJ Ben’s gonna play because he wants another contract which means what he’s

Only playing to get paid he don’t give a [ __ ] about winning and losing he don’t care about the game of assho everybody just solved it everyone’s trying to get paid I don’t what what are you talking about har that doesn’t make any sense everybody want to get paid in the

NBA yeah but but but the thing is when some of these players get paid they do they don’t play to their contract and the prev you have to play for your contract people play for money bro but what I’m trying to say is understand what I’m saying people play for money that’s

Their job duh but people actually want to win bro outside of getting paid Ben Simmons you can tell he doesn’t care about winning bro he just cares about a [ __ ] paycheck I don’t want you on my team if you don’t care about winning but there’s a lot of players like that I

Don’t see you getting on them because exactly we not talking about a lot of yo BR when I watch cam Thomas all let’s not even go to the other players what about Nick Clon how come exp bro when play this narrative that Ben Simmons doesn’t want to play basketball now is just

Ridiculous it’s not ridiculous there are people who feel that way and I’ve had to see that perspective for a few years to fully he didn’t want to play he then he would be retired he wants to play basketball he wants money he wants money you would do the same thing if you

Had an injury but you like you got to play people who think really surprised at you man I’m really really why are you surprised to me facts bro I’m trying to understand all perspectives PK I don’t just pick one perspective and say that’s my perspective you hey yo bro you just want

Him to disagree with me so you could make it seem like I’m crazy but people that really watch basketball like myself can see with your own visual eye Ben Simmons don’t want to play basketball the man care about being Italy at Fashion Week bro he don’t want to play

No basketball a he he became a three oh my God yo bro this bro what’s next you gonna tell me how like George foran was the World Heavyweight Champion in 197 wait this this next stretch of Ben’s return will tell us a lot it will tell

Us if he’s actually ready to play or or he’s in a position where his career might really be on a trajectory where we don’t want to see there’s certain things your body’s not going to allow you to do if you have if you have a broken leg

Your body will not allow you to play through that injury okay the back is is a serious serious injury I know people that have that5 it’s not heyk so let me ask you a question bro just common sense right you said you’ve been watching the game for

25 years right I’m tell you something bro I can’t tell you’ve been watching the game because you be having some bad analogies so let me give you my 36 years let me give you my listen so let me give you my 36 years of experience hey yo

John only only jump in and agree with me if you feel I’m making sense all right BK we gonna debate this me and you BK I’mma say my piece don’t cut me off let let let me finish and then I’m GNA let you rebut and come back to me Tracy

McGrady phenomenal player if he wasn’t injury prone my opinion he definitely up there LeBron all injury prone the man retired because of the same thing that you said his body wouldn’t let him go any further Grant Hil another one retired Bron Roy another one retire that’s three players bro that was great

Players but they seen I’m injury prone I have to retire Ben Simmons has a broke back the man is never ever healthy you saying yo bring Ben Simmons back bring Ben Simmons back so my thing is hey just say don’t cut me off just let me finish I’m about to finish right

Now as you being somebody that said that you evaluating the game for 25 years if the man could never stay healthy for God’s sakes why would you want the man just not to retire if he can’t physically stay healthy honestly bro real [ __ ] honestly go ahead because he

Can actually help this team if he’s actually healthy that’s why saying if he not why you yeah that’s got bad back bro wait wait wait here’s only player that’s actually currently injured and not playing man here here here’s the thing though Ben Simmons is only 27 right prime years but

To have a chronic back injury at 27 it’s scary for him to even try to P is right but wait but here here’s here’s another thing it’s hard for him that he can’t take hits on the court defensively because he’ll get hurt but offensively he doesn’t want to take hits going to

The rim because he’ll get hurt isn’t that a very fearful thing to worry about considering making a lot of money well I mean I think it’s a psychological component that he actually has to get over man that’s part of it all right see Jonathan if you go out

There right and you have a KNE to KN contact you bang knees that that’s gonna really hurt you know now you recover from that injury you’re gonna be worried you know that you gonna be banging knes with somebody again injury again it’s gonna be on your

Mind so you just got to get over it psychologically you not that type of guy thoughs I know but Ben he’s one of those special players where it affects him a lot and the thing is I know he wants to play I can see it when he says he wants

To play but his body is telling him a lot of different things and here’s the thing you always listen to your body no matter what and I know that from I’m dealing with I’m dealing with something right now presently with that somebody else and it’s a tough thing to see so B

Let me ask you a question so if Ben Simmons can’t stay healthy you would rather him now listen to me carefully if he can’t play and he’s not healthy you would rather him just sit on the bench and not be able to help the team and just say hey I’m just

Going to wait I have a long until he comes back just because you got hopes on him coming backers I mean d whad why you keep talking about other people we talking about Ben Simmons stop deflecting the other players talking about Ben Sim you’re gonna make and you don’t like the

Answer that you that you you talking yo bro DQ Whitehead has a knee injury bro that he’s gonna recover a back injury bro he’s bro DQ Whitehead hat yo bro DQ Whitehead don’t have an injury history of playing in the NBA Ben Simmons he has an injury history in college he’s

Still i i a worried about though man that that’s unfortunate man that he got season surgery on his I’m say this to you bro yo bro I don’t wish no bad on Ben Simmons but if the man come back I don’t sound like it but if the man come

Back but if the man come back right and he does what I know he gonna do be a [ __ ] choke artist and and then say yo my back is broke again I just like I just want you guys to come on here and just humble yourself and apologize and

Like yo bro was wrong about Ben Simmons did a stro on Ben Simmons when he scored the two points against Kye probably going to hurt his back again you’re yeah like that’s probably going to happen but we don’t want that but we don’t want that saying want to be

Healthy but it’s hard to but at this point if he hurs but what I’m saying is if he hurts his back again right you guys are come up here oh man he hurt his back just wait for him to come back nah bro what you [ __ ] should be

Saying is it’s time to retire bro because you’re not getting retire then I mean he had a whole bunch of different injuries he didn’t retire ybody call for kawh Lon to retire well obvious well obviously you don’t watch First Take because I heard Stephen A Smith from my own

You just sat here and said you don’t hear nobody saying it I’m just somebody has said he’s a non Hooper whoes about what he actually has to say a did you guys did you guys hear about Julius Randall dislocating shoulder that was rough yeah saying I mean yeah players

Get injured all the time man yeah but the only player in the NBA that’s actually dealing with the injury nobody’s calling for Lonzo to retire yo bro you have horrible tap bro people that have injuries that they can come back from is self-explanatory Ben Simmons has an injury Ben Simmons has an

Injury bro that he might not ever recover from stop [ __ ] talking about a dislocated shoulder bro you coming back from that this [ __ ] got a bad back I didn’t bring it up Jonathan brought that I’m just saying the man got hold on hold on har I wanted to add

To that bro even St even though Spencer ain’t all that good bro Spencer with the starting lineup is better than Ben Simmons in the starting lineup bro yeah but Ian we have to trade Spencer though that’s a non-negotiable what are you talking about man sucks come back come back off and

Come back in again man no bro that’s not me bro my [ __ ] was good to Ivan came on stop yo bro stop that bro stop that you Breezy is it better now is it better now is it better now I muted muted Harlem is it better now see

Can you hear anything is it I’m talking when he’s yeah all right so I unmuted Harlem not the noise Back I’m not picking on you man damn I’m a nice guy your [ __ ] bro no it’s not I paid $800 for this microphone man what are you talking about BK hoops this is why I think I want J I want to ask you I want to ask

You a question you too BK Hoops okay okay so when when yall saw Spencer scoring a little bit right everybody saw that right when he scored a little bit right against a small point guard everybody saw that right okay the reason why he was able to score because they

Was denying C Thomas and bridges the ball right we all saw that right right right okay would Ben Simmons score if they denying cam Thomas and bridges the ball cuz that’s what’s going to happen that’s my question probably not probably not unless he has an opening he’s only

Scored this season on open wide that’s what I’m saying that’s what I’m saying Jonathan that’s why that’s why I feel like Spencer is a better Fit cost us 10 games last last season what you talking wait wait wait wait wait BK Ian I understand what Spencer

Brings to his team but the thing is he’s on expiring contract we only have six games left there’s a very high chance he will be moving yeah even no even I get it I get it even if he get traded I’m just saying he’s more of effect with

This starting lineup here when K is starting because everybody’s in their natural position I agree about that be honest I’m be honest Ian we really shouldn’t have won this game I’m a Nets fan but we should BK we earned the win just say we earned

The win BK just say we earn the win ho yes we did we did wait wait wait how do we not earn the win C with me come on my friend do you actually concur we are in the win what what what is I don’t think watching BK who I don’t

Think he was watching you know how hard the Rockets play bro they was Bull hold on hold on BK back to back too BK listen they were playing so I’ve never seen somebody play so hard they was dropping each other like bro bodies was flying like iies fly yeah there was

Injuring fing diving they were nobody play that serious in the regular season but the Rockets they were playing o d serious like see and that’s the thing Ian Ian that’s my question to you do you think we need a coach that actually is willing to be a little more I don’t say

Cutthroat but like very brutally honest with his team to like tell them hey this this thing you should be playing at not just letting them you know go out shoot so so J this this is my thing I I do think we do and I do think we do I think

My my only problem with jock Von is and and I saw I can admit that I’m wrong um I feel like he’s hard on cam Thomas but I feel like that is developing him like we see cam Thomas improving my only problem he’s not as hard as veterans I

Feel like he kiss ass vaugh was much better last no vaugh was much better last season it just seems like this season he’s lost his but I think I think I think he kissed I not gonna lie I think he’s kiss ass to Veterans instead of you know instead of

You but he doesn’t kiss ass to Rookies you know what I mean he he give it to them out front like yo you gota yeah but that explains why the communication is so bad because you look at how these young guys want to play and these vets

Are not playing up to the their you know their cards so it’s like I can understand that I’d be a little pissed off too if I’m busting my ass in all the practice sessions but you give the Vets more minutes than me like I can understand that yeah even even the Vets

Get the Vets got more room to make mistakes than the rookie the rookie make one mistake Ben but this but this goes back to where coach team supposed to be caring about development but you’re being harder on the kids when there’s ones that are should be allowed to make

Mistakes that’s that’s that’s the thing I’m having a problem with with this whole coaching JP that’s that that’s exactly it JP that would be K hoops and not realizing that if you put decent players around Spencer he can make something work if Ben Simmons was in the

Same predicament as as Spencer he would be he would be scared to score on the point guard I look at the body of work man you know over a course of a players career uh and you know back up point guard at best man there’s a reason for that man all right

Is there a listen man Jonathan actually said it himself that Spencer is a is a back Ben Sim is G come back on a contending Championship Squad he’d be a good backup point guard on a championship Squad that’s where I think Spencer’s window is right now not solder anymore only does

Want want score man we need guys to pass the ball yeah but that’s Spencer’s problem that’s why I think he’s goingon to hurt his future in in this because no but Ian actually thinks that he’s a he’s a starting caliber point guard though man he’s in his 30s though that’s hold

On hold on hold on hold on my only thing that reason why I think Spencer Spencer would just okay my thing is and this is just my opinion I could be wrong I think Spencer have not been dealt with good CS so like I said he played with bridges

That is a off ball player that can create his own shot he plays with Mel Bridges that is a off ball player that can create his own shot he play with uh finny Smith that’s that can’t create his own shot he played with Clon that can’t create his own shot now Spencer hasn’t

Yeah so hold on hold on hold on hold on once when he had cam Thomas he was able to and you know hold y’all probably forgot about this y’all remember when cam Thomas said no homo y’all remember that yeah so so think hold on think about this this is the crazy part y’all

Know we won with Spencer as a point guard right we beat the Bulls so I’m just saying Spencer never got good players because we we only saw we so okay let’s let’s go back to last year last year Spencer was one of the best point guards in the Le even though we

Had a losing record mind you we did but he was one of one the best assist players assist players he was yes that one man thank you Jonathan thank you for not the player just the co him bro put him best he was the best assist play mind you

Mind you before he came here he was killing it with the Dallas he even he even shot a three with us BR Dallas hold on hold on hold on Fast Forward to tonight’s game he had a chot Creator look how phenomenal he looked I’m just saying it might be

Personel I’ll say this I’ll say this wait wait wait wait wait hold let point I say this though it was so unfortunate when Spencer suffered That season ending ACL here when we had KD and Kyrie you know like we were building that Championship Squad and then when he went

Down it was like damn what could have been same thing with Ben Simmons what could have been if he was healthy there’s no point to talk about Spencer bro he’s getting traded O’Neal and is getting traded so the conversation should be who we gonna have SIM yo bro listen listen

Man I know BK and OG is Never Gonna agree with me on that until Ben Simmons shoots and until I see Ben Simmons actually go to the hole on a consistent basis you heard what I said BK I said consistent so like I don’t need to jump

Jump in and be like oh he does go nah bro when he does it until I see him do a consistent and he can hit a jump shot he’s going to be a bum he’s gonna retire a bum and and that’s just what it is bro

I have I have zero faith in Ben Simmons anybody that has faith in Ben Simmons is just high at this point bro because anybody with a visual eyes can see that ask everybody I think OJ may still here what have been Benin played tonight would he attack the point guard

The way Spencer did that’s all I have for you guys probably not it’s his first game back and here’s the thing they should have matter it was game back wait they should have Ben come off the bench on Monday and build his minutes up 25 minutes don’t go 30 since you know we

Have the monsters back that’s something we have to remember here guys start I know y actually think Ben s is going right back in the lineup though I don’t think he going right back the bench got to be smart with his back that’s the first thing play him off the

Bench is the smart thing he can play the middle quarters he can maybe play him in the closing quarter but you can’t start him right now it’s too too quick I got I got one last question too you you know why I knew Spencer was playing for real

Tonight you know how I knew Spencer was playing to new because he was complaining to the ref once Spencer start complaining you know taking the game yeah but that’s that’s that’s a a netive that’s a negative part of him though that he compl a lot and it’s like

Just play the next play I get it Spencer you should have got foul but here’s the thing you know how this league is run Spencer you know that the refs aren’t going to give you call but you’re not a superstar you’re a hardworking F

Man hold on Jan I do agree with you but complaining complaining is smart though you want to build relationship because you want to take advantage it’s like flopping it’s the same thing they want to manipulate the game if Spencer don’t want to be with the Nets I don’t blame him k Kyrie Harden

Didn’t want toay my friend the Nets are in a mess yeah and CLA you know what’s crazy hey yo you been giving some Jews tonight what happened when you gave look what happened when you gave Spencer a couple players that could that can be a good liner look what he did tonight man

That’s that’s what I’m saying stop stop I told you man got game man Houston was on a back to back and just say we earned the win just say we earned the win my just say we earn yes say we earned it yes there we go

There we go not tonight not tonight if he be if we beat Utah well not tonight oh this this the thing y don’t make no sense because can I ask you let me just say one thing to BK BK Hoops you said we don’t even earned the win against the

Lakers bro and the Lakers been beating teams that don’t make no sense you wait wait when did BK say that he said that yeah he said we didn’t own the win because they come we earned that one we were down and we came back and earned it

Didn’t play hard the second half they played hard the first half and the second half they came off I just want to say this to you right all right so this how I’mma kill listen listen this this is how I’mma kill this [ __ ] that you saying you said that Houston was on the

Back to back this year BK I’mma name something that happened this year thanks I seen the B I seen the Boston Celtics play one game and literally smash who they played and came back the next night play the back to back and smash the other team so the

Fact that you’re saying that Houston lost because they play the back to back is [ __ ] actually come out what saying game on the back to back and then the second half of the back to back they actually play well but for the bro what I’m telling you is I’ve seen

Boston beat teams back to back this year yeah so the fact that you’re saying that Houston pretty much was tired and they didn’t play hard is [ __ ] cuz I seen the play hard man okay so if they played hard then like I’ve been driving a long time I’m

45 I’ve been driving since I was 18 I can tell when someone’s walking in the street and they’re not paying attention I could read their body language I can tell when somebody’s not going to stop for a red light I can see look and see how fast the car is

Com a red light BK hoop very observant yo BK Hoops hold on hold on hold on this BK no offense yo sometimes you’ll take me bad because nobody really play hard nobody nobody play hard into the playoffs bro like for real what you talking about man they played hard the

Second half so you say starters you say starters be playing they don’t play older starters don’t play hard into the playoff these are young players they’re actually fighting for contract they fighting for like you know what I’m saying to actually get money they have like two three year deals so is camish

Bro yeah he’s in a contract year he’s up for a rookie extension he played his but tonight right you know cuz sometimes cam do too much I know but he played good tonight he was efficient tonight I’m not I’m not taking it away from him but I’m

Just saying though just say he earned it just say Thomas earned OJ do you ever played pool before man you played Billard before are you happy if you actually win if your opponent scratches on the eightball are you beating your chess listen listen my only my only problem

Was I said we supposed to win all four quarters we only won three quarters tonight I’ll give you that we didn’t win the fourth quar we only have like Jonathan I can’t even I can’t even give him that because why it took so long for you to say that though Jonathan

I mean come on okay okay okay wait wait okay so then you can admit that cam Thomas earned the win for the team tonight because he played well just he almost lost us the win too had aoup hold hold on hold on hold on hold on

Man you you you was not watching it bro the Rockets play the rocket play listen listen bro the rocket played so hard they started even pushing their own teammates like they were falling like this is the most hardest I ever seen a team play Clippers don’t play that hard

Nobody plays that hard into the playoffs the rock trying but they tring back to back every time you play back to back no one hits threes because they have no legs that’s exactly what happened here they couldn’t shoot we Skip Leg broen shoots he shoots 39 almost 39%

From the three-point line he went one for seven if he had legs he’s gonna hit three or four out of those seven shots and the rockets actually win this game all right so you can’t say that bro you can’t it’s all about possessions and who’s feeling it that night some nights

Is going to be guard the three-point line very well all right that’s a problem they don’t guard theed loss for the Rockets say that again OJ scheduled loss for the rocket ear the win and you were wrong about sangun destroying us we actually defensively held him down you can admit that right

Yeah by committee I mean they yes he admitted it he admitted it guys he admitted it okay it wasn’t do it by himself it was them actually getting the ball out of his hands blitzing them with multiple Defenders getting the ball out of his hands yo

B yo bro you got to start giving credit what credit is Du I need you to work on that bro n bro yeah you sound you sound bro y guys will be the playing pool and then your opponent scratches on the eight ball then you go actually going

Out there you beating your chest yeah yeah I’m better than you and let’s say you were actually getting your ass I don’t play pool I don’t play Hoops listen this is why I don’t take your thing serious because bro I used to be an amateur boxer and you know what

They say you know what they say amateur boxing where I lost to a person they thought I should have won they said he was better than he was the better man that night we was the better team that night that’s what it is bro there’s no imagine if you’re boxing just out

Drinking beers till like 3: a.m. that’s it man we was the better team that night period matter matter who won or l okay how hard is it he’s actually agreeing with me no Brooklyn didn’t get lucky bro this just I just know whoever deserves to win

One bro that’s what it is bro they beat listen me listen me and Harlem can be very hard on this team but we also know when this team does well enough to show that they care okay they care tonight with 30 point lead I get that I

Get that listen it’s not going to be a miracle overnight yes yes but you know what you got 27 we’re gonna lose the Jaz on Monday probably oh man he said what H we gotta see what happens Monday we can’t we gotta see what happened bro Hey listen listen bro look

Look look the the reason I agree with OJ on that is CA the Jazz actually though JP no yeah bro tell him about that yeah JP JP come on man come on the stream with us man yo the reason I think they gonna lose is because they got three of the players

That I wanted the N to have I’m not a back to back either and you know who that is John are they my boy Lori my boy claron and my boy the young bull and them dudes on the Jazz got Ballers bro Kelly up man wait here’s the thing

Here’s the thing we offensively they beat us out last time but if we could hold them down a little bit defensively with Ben coming back you know maybe we could change the side in that game we’ll see yo bro Ben Simmons is not even gonna sniff the floor long enough to even have

An impact for real possibly if if he comes off the bench possibly but we’ll see yo bro you know what Jack vaugh gonna do I’mma tell you what he gonna do remember I told y’all this Spencer deny Mel Bridges cam Johnson Dory infiny Smith Nick Clon watch what I tell you

And we gonna get our ass whipped again Thomas line he’s not though and everybody’s going to be in the comment section saying the same [ __ ] why cam Thomas not in the lineup and then at the end of the game we gonna ask JV and then he gonna say something like well we just

Looked at the match up what how many how many points do we have in that first quarter 35 with Thomas that’s one of our best first that’s one of our best first quarters of the season because the cam Thomas was in it so yeah that’s what I’m saying to you

But that’s what I’m saying what’s his name is gonna do some funny [ __ ] like he gonna say yeah you know well well cam Thomas you know he’s good but I looked at film last time against the Jazz and he didn’t do good against the blit like he just gonna say some

[ __ ] bro on why he don’t play the kid man I hate this analytical stuff with basketball it ruins the fun of the game like if you focus on analytics you’re kind of just telling players you got to be a robot like if you’re not hitting your analytics you’re you’re not

Good enough you got to use itics I mean that’s yeah yeah but here’s the thing the warri I know but our generation is so obsessed with technolog but here’s the thing though our J is so obsessed with technology for everything but once you start it’s always right because it doesn’t

Lie well about those Taylor Swift nudes that are going through not fake what yo bro technology not always right I’ve seen I’ve seen but that’s just a wild bro yeah techology if technology was always right cam Thomas would have never been on the bench that’s just being a [ __ ] honestly speaking the analytics

Said they was better than fny Smith listen analytics said finny Smith should be starting and then how many games did the Nets lose in a row with fny Smith so you know what I’m saying so I cold I ain’t gont he had a pretty solid game today though yeah when he’s on he’s

On he’s he’s amazing like he’s probably all around better player than cam Thomas when Dorian F Smith is heading shots but bro here’s the thing cold sometimes doryan finy Smith should be in a starting lineup I just think cam Johnson should be the one taking out the

Lineup yes the net should only have two scorers you know do you know why they don’t do that because if they bench cam Johnson then it’s going to make Shawn marks look like an idiot that’s why getting paid all that money they don’t want to admit that they made a mistake

That’s why they won’t put on the Ben I understand that I understand that OJ but you know they need a coach that has a little more that’s willing to have these uncomfortable be like no bad boy you can’t do that but that’s that’s what marks is he always tries to find a coach

That is uh I’m a players coach but you know what it’s not a coach that’s like I’m a players’s coach if they’re playing well if they’re not let me ask y like realistic question you do y’all really do y’all really think on the panel that Shawn marks is really telling Jack vaugh

Who to play cause honestly I’m feeding Clon in there I think no no no because I’m really starting to think Jack vaugh is making a calls you mean sha marks you mean because honestly speaking I don’t think Shawn marks is telling jaon anything I honestly think G coach they’re definitely talking all the

Time yeah but I think van is the one making like who he want to put in and take out and I don’t think Shawn marks really get involved unless he really needs to like just put it this way I think us to play he he

Like know yeah I think he I think he’s definitely involved in it a little bit at least yeah but it also I I can see Harlem’s point where it feels like he’s taking a backseat this season you know what this is a transition year you

Should be hands on deck not just oh I’m going to sit back and let all these guys battle to see who makes the team next year because you know what this season’s a wash so yeah but you’re killing the fan base you’re not giving the fan base a reason to come to

The B A lot of people are there’s nothing there’s nothing to do there’s nothing to do the rest of the season like we’re not going to win like there’s just nowhere to go right now should never be like this is why I think John this why I think Shawn Mar is not

Really saying nothing Because you see how cam Thomas plays with Bridges you see how cam Johnson played with Bridges you can clearly see Cam and Mel play more efficient these guys play the backto back game I don’t know why you getting hyped over this one game man just say cam Thomas certainly win for

The team no no no no no no no I’m not getting hyped about it I’m just no no what talking about be who should who should play together more wasn’t wasn’t Doran finny Smith struggling man he wasn’t really doing that 19 points he had 19 points tonight I know but the

Previous five six games anything he was he was that’s what I’m saying like if guys really start any up the defense man um I mean like I said I think we lose this game I say a and did you see my man Smith comment

BK yeah I saw it Smith that’s my you a even yo bro yo bro this how much of a buster you are you see you ain’t even try to acknowledge that comment bro why not I highlighted it I put it up on screen I acknowledged

It you’re a funny n no no no but you needed to acknowledge it on the panel like yo listen yo bro you hate giving credit I’m trying to interrupt I’m letting y talk I’m not trying to interrupt the flow of the conversation man people actually saying something in

Here man if I see something that’s crazy that I’ll interject and say something but yo CL Smith you let me down bro OJ came on the show before you bro you let me down clude man you know what I’m saying yeah I need to hop on

Think about JP over here this 19 points helped the team big time he hit four out of eight three-pointers but I mean yo JP you gonna get out the comment section and hop onal man you JP see and that’s whyp seemed like a Ben Simmons fan too

See that’s why I hope Doran uh injury isn’t too long man because he played well with Ben Simmons Ben Simmons set up for a lot of three-point shots before he got hurt yeah I’ve been saying like Ben Simons and Luca y you know what say well listen what I’m

Telling you though right but that’s why I keep telling y’all cam Johnson he’s the bench player yo bro today answered all of my question I wouldn’t use this game as a as you know a sample size for that man you’re wait wait wait wait here’s the

Thing do you guys think that’s why cam Johnson might have take it off I mean if it’s not a family situation do you think coach Juan said hey what do you think about going on the bench and John’s like I gotta take a day like you

Think just spe turn the defense up man I mean can yo hold on hold on Yo John you know what’s crazy yo bro like I can see some [ __ ] like that really happen I me I just go by what we seen the last few seasons with superstars you know DeAndre

Jordan we want you to DeAndre we want you to go to the Ben okay I’m out hey y’ I need to dat to process this and [ __ ] I’m I’m wrap this up I’m 45 man I can’t do three nights with five hours a sleep all right all right yeah I’m ready

To hop off too yeah yeah I’m I I didn’t sleep that well Thursday into Friday Friday into Saturday I was up to like 4 in the morning with you guys all right so we so we’ll do another video on Monday after the game all right take off yeah if something something crazy

Happens I’ll probably do a live tomorrow night you know um but more than likely just a regular video we’ll see man ain’t nothing crazy gonna happen bro you never know some type of this the last week before the deadline last week before the deadline Anything could happen anything can Happ

Ain’t nothing gonna happen until the dead I ain’t G front bro I think D’Angelo Russell coming to Brooklyn though I hope like I’ll welcome I mean do you want really want D’Angelo Russell on his team hell yeah bro he can shoot bro like he can help

Bro G lie I I don’t I don’t think he really moves the needle that much thank you thank you thank thank you man he doesn’t move the needle but but but he can like help with some scoring points yeah you don’t agree for for what like

We need off we need some offense we have we don’t have offense we can’t relying Thomas and Mel we are only main scorers we need a third guy and if we can’t find a third guy like Deon D is the next best cause potentially I

Don’t JP I was gonna say that he wants to see what he looks like with Cam with Ben Simmons in there I mean the offense was really like designed around Ben Simmons and his his abilties so I think that’s what they’re really waiting for to see you know what it’s gonna we know

What it’s G to look like I just think it’s more him y bro didn’t didn’t didn’t cam didn’t cam John didn’t cam Johnson play a couple games with Ben Simmons though am I bugging he got hurt he was he was injured you know yeah they they actually never played together yet they

Played much he was injured for all them six games yeah back he came back in the Boston game after Ben got hurt I think I’m G tell you something I don’t even think Ben Simmons even wants to play with them I think Ben Simmons really like playing with Cam Thomas though

Believe it or not they work well together Thomas and Ben is a great combo they compliment each other a lot way and here’s the thing can make any any anything work man you know as long as guys is willing to you know I mean he he

He makes it over work it doesn’t matter who he’s really playing with well you know what the lineup should be the lineup should be Ben Thomas bridges that should be the core three yes I agree you move anything that has space around it man you subtract class there get more space

And you should have them three you should have them three and then you should put claxon as the power forward I know you against it BK but try it out see how it works man he’s not score those PA Fords man you talking about Giannis Paulo Ben Caro about Jared

Jackson Jr you’re talking who else better get that jump shot out time to show yo bro you act yo bro you act like Nick Clon shouldn’t even be in the NBA the way you be talking bro not he doesn’t have a position in the NBA that’s what I’m

Saying he doesn’t have the skills he hasn’t have no ballhead he has skills he has skills yo yo bro so you telling me so you telling me Nick Clon shouldn’t even be in the NBA BK come on bro nope wow that does he have man BL yeah but BK you

Said something yesterday like if you take claxon out of this team and Ben wasn’t playing because of his injury that this team would be playing well they wouldn’t they have no size you take day Ron out of it too this team has no size SI play Simmons can actually play

Some type of Defense put up more resistance hej guys down I know but he would SC efficien you know like with Clon in there man just just picture you all all I’m I’m six foot like six foot like two all right so imagine me playing against

Like a a eighth grader man a old skinny eighth grad that’s what it’s like with Claxton being in there compared to like Jordan man pick up some on your outside BK yeah he just overpowers him and Claxton doesn’t give any kind of resistance on the defensive end man he

Cannot you know and then you put him at the three he just doesn’t have the ball handling skills at a small forward you gotta be able to shoot and and and handle the ball a little bit he doesn’t give you any of that you know so what

Position does he really have in the NBA I mean O.J do you concur so so wait so what should claxon’s career be if not basketball be G I’m just want to ask what do you think his career know I’m only sport I really know I’m an expert in is basketball man

That’s it I don’t follow any other sport he yo bro you’re not even an expert because you talking blasphemy listen you talking Blast for me right now yeah I’m here to uh add an extra punch you be talking BL I didn’t see anything I didn’t see any teams

Really wanting claxon man except for like what are you talking about bro a lot of people wanted CL let me tell Youk opposing teams want to pay him 20 million next year who Clon they want to pay him 20 million next a lot of different teams

Heyers middle TI hey yo BK look at jellio comment BK thank you jilo I know that’s what I’m addressing right now I’m addressing this comment I mean what and look and look at now now after he say Clon look at the last line bro look at that part nobody has interest in

Your main man Ben no no I know I listen that that’s okay but I’m trying to tell you man I mean I’ve been watching this thing for a long time and CLS in at six 611 215 pounds it’s a matchup problem and there’s other NBA pents out there yeah but he’s a good

Rebounder though like this team doesn’t have rebounding without Clon without Simmons like this team would have no we’re getting we’re getting how big is Jared Allen bro he’s 243 pounds 611 okay all right I’m trying to tell you go even Kevin Durant yeah he looks skinny he’s 240 pounds you know what I’m

Saying so KD is M skinny though I ain’t gonna front KD I if I plug KD at the five we bring Kevin Durant back I take claxon out and just put Kevin Durant in there you know he’s not going to be getting abused defensively as bad as Clon was yes he is

Yes he is I’ve seen Kevin Durant get abused bro did you see that Celtics Series against the Nets that was the downfall of KB’s career that wasn’t Kevin Durant passing yo listen he tat had SE Kevin Durant I’ve seen Kevin Durant T brown it was everybody listen

Said that team I’ve seen I’ve seen Kevin Durant get abused the only difference between Kevin Durant and Clon is Kevin Durant he got efficient offense so he can abuse them guys also now here’s the here’s the thing BK I give you credit I seen with

My own two eyes shanon come down put his arm in on in um thing chest and move him out the way so right there me and you agree all day but to sit here and to say the kid don’t have a a a um position and

He’s not good enough to be in the NBA OJ o that’s where you tell lies OJ does claxon have a position in the NBA I don’t think OJ online anymore got his whole game in totality does he have a position in the NBA yo OJ dropped off bro it’s just me

You and John uh oh BK he done left you hanging so now you got deal with being Big John oh man he came out of his sleep okay yeah OJ does Paxton have a position in the NBA and based on his whole skill yeah no yeah the the issue is he’s too

Small at the five he’s getting B and then he he’s not like skillful enough at the four and he can’t shoot so I don’t I don’t know where you put him no he can shoot it’s just he doesn’t have he doesn’t do enough I seen him make a

Midrange shot I i’ seen him make mid-range shots what is with bro this is crazy bro see o agrees with me man I’m trying to tell you he doesn’t have a position in the NBA he doesn’t no but that’s one person’s opinion though BK you saying talking crazy

Bro listen we’re gonna have a new segment called Blas for me and you know what the fact listen the fact that you guys are saying he can’t shoot Clon has a good form and he actually has a good enough form to shoot now that’s not what’s

Being requir of him but I guarantee you guys if if if Jack vongh said cuz honestly bro I think Jack vaugh should Implement a pick and pop with Den Woody and Nick Clon no no they don’t work they don’t work well together they don’t work well together throw LS then W can’t throw

Listen to what I said I said a pick and a pop that’s talking about when you don’t roll to the to the um basket I’m talking about that Steve nashom my [ __ ] when when you come off the pick you basically throw the ball and he shoots it that’s what I’m saying I’m not

Talking doesn’t command attention he doesn’t require second no it don’t have to Bey BR listen it don’t have to be like I mean they gotta draw the double team and then then Wy kicks he’ll draw this like like CLX man yeah and he’ll kick out like Clon for like a mid-range jump shot

Right cam Thomas and Clowny running pick and pop now that would be good yeah that be that’ be that’ be interesting no right that can but Clon can can shoot and cl can no Claxton can shoot bro he just don’t get the opportunity all right

So I want the I want uh Jonathan and uh har I’m to answer JP’s question over here okay question would you be would would question would be would CLA oh question would be clack star anywhere else in the NBA War abely Raptors need him dicks don’t have a center right now

So it’s like there a lot of teams teams actually healthy not not because the Knicks have injuries they uh hartenstein and and Robinson’s injured but I’m saying yo bro you telling me that Clon can’t start over Mitch Robinson and hardstein are you crazy what guys are real censers at 240 plus

You know what I’m saying season he has been healthy one season Mitchell yo bro Mitchell Robinson can’t even shoot bro he’s equivalent to Clon so like what are you talking about Mitchell has no comes off the bench yeah but Rob said has no jump shot I’ve never seen him do a jump shot

Ever comes off the Ben let me wrap this up I got get some sleep I’m tired yeah I gota go all right all right manab this another this another fun discussion lot lot talked about man I’m wrap this video up M make sure you hit that like button

When you hey yo BK yes on Monday your title should be um going forward should cam Johnson be on the bench bro that should be yeah we’ll look into that man like I told you guys before man you overv valuating this you’re overvaluing this win by the Brooklyn you know your wait

You know your title should be BK should be Ben Simmons question mark comeback player of the Season question mark that should be your title yeah last video was zy bro no bro the title should really be brokeback Ben oh that’s what it should be called brokeback Ben this up man I
