have some Jack's Hot Take.
And as always, don't forget to sit back and get ready to learn something.
On a Wednesday afternoon, one of the few shows all year and I love these shows.
It's one of the few shows all year that I'm going to record, edit, and immediately push
out.
Because I'm not recording late at night, I'm not recording it you know, early in the morning.
It's one of those situations where it sits a Wednesday afternoon.
It's about 1.34 local time.
I'm going to record this show, edit it, and then it'll probably be out within the hour
of me finishing it.
I love these shows because it gets really raw right in that moment.
A lot of times I'm recording, I'm recording, I say Tuesday night before the games even
start on a Wednesday, and then the next morning, that night something huge happens or some
big news breaks or something.
The show feels a little outdated.
Some of the shows are still incredibly accurate, but especially with the NBA with the standings
being so tight, a couple teams have the same record within a half game of each other.
So when people play or game each other, people play, lose, and all of a sudden the standings
completely flip.
It's not a huge issue, but it is something that could become a problem if you're listening
for the standings updates.
I call these shows Insta-releases, where it's recorded, it's edited, and it's out within
the hour.
I love these shows.
I get to do them a few times a year.
For those of you who listen often, you guys know I'm a teacher and I coach high school
football.
My teacher taught me high school football.
So a lot of times I don't get the chance to record midday.
Spring break's on, I get a chance to record midday.
It's pretty dope.
It takes you a little bit behind the scenes.
For those of you who are looking for the next JTS After Dark episode, recorded it last night.
So it should be out probably no later than tomorrow.
So you guys will get this show today and then JTS After Dark with Jai from HeyJai, what
our partnership at IMS Productions.
You guys will have that show no later than tomorrow.
And of course I'll link the actual, I'll link the channel in the description of this episode.
So you guys will have that ready to go as well whenever you get this episode.
And if you listen to it, you'll all want to see the past two episodes of JTS After Dark.
You can immediately just go to the YouTube channel and subscribe on there.
And of course as always, like, rate, and subscribe wherever you're getting this podcast, whatever
service you use, iTunes, Spotify, Amazon, Pandora, etc.
Anyway, let's get into business.
Of course, before I get into the NBA, a little bit of breaking news on the NCAA front.
LSU superstar forward, Angel Reese has officially declared for the NBA draft.
Of course she had 48 hours to do so.
Following her team's loss to Iowa, we'll discuss that a lot more, in the Elite 8, she had 40
hours to declare.
She declares a big massive Vogue spread.
She announces it in Vogue.
She announces it on social media.
Like I said, she does a big Vogue magazine shoot.
Announces it in there.
And of course she puts out a couple videos.
She's thanking people now.
And we'll talk about that more when we discuss her actually in the March Magnus B block.
We'll discuss her, but that was the breaking news that happened all of about two hours
ago before we got to, before I was able to get to record this show.
So as an LSU fan, as a women's basketball fan, as an LSU fan first, thank you to Angel
Reese and her career.
She helped revitalize the program.
Yes, Ken Mulkey, right?
Like I said, Ken Mulkey was driving for us.
Angel Reese is not here without Ken Mulkey.
So Ken Mulkey is giving me number one credit, but he needed a superstar.
You know, he needed somebody that LSU fans could glean onto and to glean to and to be
a kind of a beacon like, okay, that's LSU basketball.
That's LSU women's basketball.
Hell, that's LSU's basketball.
Right?
Like I said, we'll get into more of her career accolades and stuff in this segment, but just
thank you to her for what she was able to do for the program.
And we'll get into it more.
This is the NBA segment, right?
The A-Bots NBA.
But that was the breaking news.
So thank you to her.
And we appreciate that from her.
Like I said, we'll talk a lot more about her in our next segment.
But anyway, back to the purpose of this A-Block, back to what this A-Block is actually supposed
to be about.
And that is the NBA.
That is the NBA standings.
That is the NBA.
We're roaring towards the playoffs.
A lot of these teams have 15 games left.
17 games left.
Like we're not talking a lot of games left on the NBA schedule.
We're getting to that point where it's go time for a lot of people.
Just doing some math.
Yeah, the Lakers have, sorry, less than that.
The Lakers have played 76 games.
They got six games left.
So yeah, I'm sorry.
I had my brain all messed up.
There's six games left in the season between six to eight for a lot of people left in the league.
It's go time.
I mean, it's past the point of like, oh, such and such can jump two, three seeds.
Like now you're trying to get up one or trying to avoid this team.
Or if you're truly in tank mode, you know, truly in tank mode or you're trying to maneuver a draft pick,
that's pretty much the only way to really maneuver at this point.
But let's go through the standing today.
We'll discuss a little bit more.
Of course, we got the going on East.
We got the Boston Celtics.
EZU the best record in the NBA.
As I said before, the gap actually the gap right now at 140 on a Wednesday.
The gap right now from first in the East to second in the East is bigger than the gap from first in the West to tenth in the West.
I'll tell you how far ahead Boston has run from the rest of the conference.
But they're 12 games in front of Milwaukee.
Boston so far out, we're not even going to discuss Boston as far as we're not going to discuss the games back from Boston.
It's not fair.
It's not fun.
Right.
So Milwaukee, Milwaukee is now number two.
A game and a half back from Milwaukee is Cleveland.
Three games back from Milwaukee is Orlando.
But the same exact games back is the Knicks.
So the Magic and the Knicks are both 15 back from first, but they're three games back from second.
Indiana is 16 and a half, six and a half back from one, but they're four and a half back from two.
And they'd be the last thing right now in the playoffs.
In the play-in tournament, we're looking at currently the Heat are a half game back from sixth.
The 76ers are two back from sixth.
The Chicago Bulls are seven, seven games back from sixth.
And the Atlanta Hawks are seven and a half games back from sixth.
And they are west much, much tighter.
The Nuggets are with one seed currently.
The T-Wolves are half game back.
Also a half game back of the Oklahoma City Thunder.
The Clippers are five and a half back.
The Mavs and the Pelicans are seven and a half back.
They'd round out the playoffs in the play-in tournament.
The Kings are eight and a half back.
One game back from sixth.
The Suns are also one game back from sixth.
The Lakers are two and a half games back from sixth.
And the Warriors are four games back from sixth.
So the Warriors are pretty much in the play-in tournament.
They're trying to figure out now if they can get that nine, ten game at home.
But they're in the play-in tournament.
Houston has fallen off.
They've lost their last two.
Warriors have won their last five.
At this point, the Rockets overachieving or the beginning of their overachieving season is over.
It was fun.
It was fun, but it's like I predicted in the preseason predictions.
You were already a young team.
Emea Adoka was coming in, following the scandal with the Boston Celtics.
He should still be the head man in Boston.
But following the scandal with the Boston Celtics, Emea Adoka comes in.
What do you give Emea Adoka?
You give him very, very expensive, two very, very inefficient shooters.
There was only two shooters in the NBA.
There were only two players in the NBA last season that were high volume or even medium volume shooters that shot under 40% from the field.
They were Fred Van Vliet and Dylan Brooks.
The Houston Rockets decided, let's play them both.
Let's play them both.
Let's give them a whole lot of money.
Dylan Brooks was near 100.
Fred Van Vliet pretty much chose like I think his deal was, it was weird to have a bunch of opt-outs, but he had big dollar money as well.
I didn't understand the building with the Rockets.
In hindsight, I still don't.
Your young players are mostly guards.
You got Alperon Shandoon, but your young players are mostly guards.
Look at the Jalen Green's.
You look at your Atari East, he's going to win.
But you look at a lot of your young talent.
A lot of your young talent was guards.
I didn't understand it.
Because if you have Jalen Green on the floor, then Fred Van Vliet, you're taking the ball out of Jalen Green's hands because Fred Van Vliet thought the ball was useless.
So I just don't understand the building and he paid a lot of money for it to be built incorrectly.
And it showed all season, even as great as Coach Emea Adoko was, it pretty much showed all season.
They actually played better winning-wise without Alperon Shandoon, who's probably their best player because it allows them to put in the guard room for it.
They went smaller and they put more guards on the floor, more of their young talent was able to play.
I just don't understand the move.
Still don't, to be honest with you.
And the Warriors are showing that championship grit.
They're showing that championship medal, that championship battle.
Those guys have been battle-tested, man.
Dre Monk's been battle-tested.
He's had his moments this year.
He's had plenty of them this season.
But he's been battle-tested.
He's the guy that's been in the trenches.
He's been in those wars.
He's been to those five finals, six finals in this era.
That Steph has four rings and they lost to Kawhi and LeBron.
So yeah, they've been to six finals in this time during Dre Monk's time.
He's been there.
That's one of those finals, right?
So he's battle-tested.
He's battle-ready.
Klay Thompson, don't care if he's a shell of his former self.
He's been in those six finals as well.
Steph Curry, of course, even at age 35, 36, he's in those six finals as well.
You have a lot of these guys.
Some of the guys, not a lot of the guys are new.
Kaminga, I think was in one of those finals.
Those guys are new.
Moody, Davis Price, I think is his name, or Davis Jackson, something along those names.
Those guys are new.
Gary Bupke, Gary Payton Jr. was in a couple of those finals.
Those guys are mostly new, but you're a big three.
The guys who you lean on around this time of year, they was in all those wars.
They knew them well.
So they're battle-tested.
They're showing that championship great.
And so shout-out to the Warriors.
They look dead in the water.
They're like the Rockets are going to easily catch them.
Like two weeks ago, I think the last time I did a show, I was saying, like, yo, the Rockets are going to get them.
They're only a game back.
The Rockets can't lose.
The Warriors can't win.
The Rockets are going to catch them.
And the Rockets stumbled.
The Warriors took off.
So shout-out to them.
It's a lot for them to have battle throughout this season, throughout this era, really, especially the second half of it, the post-championship dynasty.
The post-dynasty years always hurts because it's like, I remember what we were not too long ago, and we can't get to that.
And so we're in the post-dynasty era with this iteration of the Warriors.
And it hurts to look at at times, but they're going to find a way to squeeze to the playing time.
Now, I think they get smoked by the Lakers in the first game.
I think the Lakers blew them out.
But they're going to get their way into this playing tournament and still have something to play for towards the end of the year.
Oh, the Lakers.
Speaking of those Lakers, they're sitting at 43 wins and 33 losses.
43 wins last year was at the fourth seed, like at the end of the year.
Like, or this time last year, 43 wins at the fourth seed.
Right now, they're ninth.
I saw something recently where this is going to be the most winning team the NBA has ever had.
Like, the most teams above 500 that the NBA has ever seen.
I think that has to do with a few factors.
Number one, there's more open tanking now.
So there's more easy dubs on the schedule.
Like, Utah, for instance, Utah doesn't want to win games.
There's more easy dubs on the schedule.
But also, what I think is you're getting a lot of talent gap in a way, but not player organization.
I think everybody was building a certain way in the 80s.
Everybody built a certain way in the 90s.
I think now, organizationally, there's such a talent gap in the building that, you know, competitiveness is a thing.
Because now, my management team is so much better than your management team.
My training is so much better than your training.
That's also keeping some of these good teams really, really good.
And also the playing tournament.
Like, a few years ago, the Warriors would be trying to finesse their way into the draft position.
Like, we're four games out with six left.
Four games out with ten left.
Like, we're not going to catch up.
Draymond has pulled a hand.
And Steph's got an eye sore in this.
You know, like, we're going to try and either keep our pick, protect our pick, or move our pick up.
Just to pose that to now, they win two games right after the season ends and they're in the playoffs.
You know, so they're constantly competing.
So now, even those teams are now smashing the bad teams, you know.
And there's more people competing for the ring because of the playing tournament.
There's 20 teams right now that can actively win.
The Rockets are still trying.
They're the 11th team.
They're still playing really, really, really hard because the Warriors lose two games in these last six.
The Rockets could get in.
You know, so now they're playing really hard trying to keep it close with the Warriors.
And making sure that the Warriors know that they're right behind them at any and all time.
So, I kind of love the playing tournament because it's making guys compete.
But also, there's a record number of really good teams this year.
There could be a record number of teams that finished above 500.
A few teams are rolling right now.
Namely, the Dallas Mavericks.
They're eating two over their last 10.
Luka has done some absolute, I wouldn't call it Luka magic, Luka ridiculousness.
Like, when he gets the bears, when he flicks the ball underhand, if a three-point line-up is timing spires and he passes it.
Like, no backboard, hardly any rim, absolute bucket.
From, you know, 26 feet away, like, around the defender.
It was insane, right?
And Kyrie Irving's been Kyrie Irving.
But what Dallas decided to do, and it's a strategy I wish a lot of other teams did, Dallas decided to start defense.
I have Luka and Kyrie.
I'm going to be able to score the ball, right?
But they had scorers and shooters around them.
They kind of went and plumped all that.
They started length, and they started guys who could play defense.
Because when you got Luka and Kyrie, you're going to need guys who can play defense.
Because those two won't.
I don't necessarily can't, but they won't, right?
So, you're going to need guys around them who can play defense.
Dallas, Jason Kidd, Smart Lee, put a lot of young youth length on the floor.
And that is allowing their defense to improve.
And vice versa, their talent and their record has improved drastically since more defensive lineups were implemented by Jason Kidd.
Speaking of ridiculousness, his name is Victor Winbiniyama.
Over the past month, Victor has shown flashes of that player we said that, you know, people were saying the floor was Hakeem.
Like, oh, the ceiling is a player we've never seen before.
And the floor is Hakeem Olajuwon.
And everybody's like, you do realize Hakeem Olajuwon is one of the 15 greatest players ever.
You're saying that the worst he's that?
But, I'm going to be honest.
Yeah.
I mean, he's already posted a 40-20 game.
He beat the next.
Josh Hart had 60- not Josh Hart.
Jalen Brunson put up 61.
And he went home with an L.
Because Victor Winbiniyama had 40 and 20 with some blocks and some assists.
And a $25,000 fine for throwing the ball into the beaches.
You know, Victor said that he thinks he would throw the ball in a crowd of anger.
Nothing ever happens to them.
But I think the significance of the ball is what made it being a stink.
And the Knicks raised the stink about it.
Because Brunson had 61.
Donjie DiVincenzo had made the most threes by a franchise player.
And then Victor himself went for 40 and 20.
You know, that doesn't happen ever, especially by a rookie.
Now, ultimately, I believe Nick Stafford went and got the ball back.
But as Winb did it out of celebration, it wasn't malicious, I don't think.
I haven't had a reason to think Winbiniyama would do something malicious.
If it was Draymond, I would assume it was malicious.
Right?
Like, certain guys have reputations.
Winbiniyama hasn't shown anything besides- he's a little bit of an ego.
That you got to kind of see.
It's a little ego in there.
But he hasn't shown anything malicious.
So I'm like, oh, he chucked the ball in the stands so Brunson couldn't get it.
Like, he would have just kept it.
You know what I'm saying?
Because his response could have been, I had 40 and 20.
Yeah, 61 for him or 9, 30 for him.
I had 40 and 20.
So I was very curious to see how they got the ball back.
Like, I'm wondering what those negotiations were.
I always wondered- and this is a piece on the sidetrack, right?
I always wondered when they have a historical moment and they send the little staffer,
like the way down the bench coach or an arena person to talk to the person,
are they authorized with a certain amount of stuff?
I know it was a big home run ball.
It wasn't Barry Bonson's ball, obviously.
But it was a big home run ball.
I want to say it was an Astros situation.
The guy ended up getting a whole bunch of signed gear.
He got tickets for something and he ended up with- he didn't get any cash.
He didn't get any hard cash.
But he got a bunch of signed merchandise.
He ended up with tickets and something else.
But I'm saying, I wonder if they- almost like a hostage negotiation,
not to draw any kind of parallel to it, but almost like a hostage negotiation,
where they are authorized to spend up to whatever on this hostage to get this person back.
I wonder if that's how it goes.
They go and they have so much stuff in their head,
they're like, I can offer this to get it back.
Or do they let the fan say, what do you want for the ball?
And then the fan goes, oh, I want blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
And then they go to people who can make that decision and go,
they want blah, blah, blah, blah, and they approve it.
I wonder if that's how it goes, if they go in with stuff in their head they can offer.
I've always been curious about that.
Because I know if I had that basketball, I want playoff things.
Like, straight up, I want this seat in the playoffs, this seat or a better.
I want court side seats to a playoff game.
Like, that's what I want.
That would be my answer first.
Like, the ball, okay, it doesn't matter.
One of those things we have to prove is the ball from the game.
I guess you could do a serial number or whatever.
Who cares, right?
I want playoff seats, floor seats to a playoff game.
That's what I want.
You got a ball.
Yeah, it'd be something like that, right?
Or, dude, they go in and say, like, so much gear, so much cash, blah, blah, blah, blah.
They can offer.
I've always been curious about that.
Total side note, total like liberty being in this show.
Like, total side note.
But I've always been curious about that.
So if somebody knows that process or been through it, like, at me or tag me or send me the article
or something like that, going through it.
But I've always been curious about that.
And finally on the NBA tip, Joel Embiid has returned.
He got 24 points last night.
Definitely look tired at the end of the game.
He hasn't played a real game since January 30th.
It is April 3rd.
He played April 2nd.
He's been out over two months with his meniscus injury.
But he scored 24 points in his first game back.
Like, that's going to be huge, right?
And he's going to get, that's about six, eight games.
He's going to probably play five of them.
So he'll get five more, six more real games.
And then if they get to the sixth seed, because they're only two away from Indiana.
If they get to the sixth seed, they have a week off.
So he may push himself through these games and then get the week off to completely rehab,
to completely heal, to completely condition, whatever.
And then he shows up at, let's say Cleveland has a three seed.
He gets Cleveland and it's Joel Embiid.
Or Orlando cuts into Cleveland.
You have this amazing, magical season and it's Joel Embiid.
Or think about it, if you're Boston or Milwaukee, you had this Boston, this amazing season.
You've blown away everybody and your reward is Joel Embiid.
Because the NBA, like, you know what I'm saying?
Or Milwaukee, you've already struggled to go through this.
You've fired a coach, you've tried to win, you've got game.
You get the second seed and blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
And your reward is Joel Embiid.
You know what I'm saying?
Like, that's not fun for anybody.
I would hate that personally.
But that's the situation that arises right now in the NBA with Embiid being back.
Like I say, I assume if they have eight games left, he's going to play six of them.
If they go five more in the game, he plays a split the one he doesn't.
Unless you say they go six and two, there's a good chance they can end up in the sixth seed.
They're only two games out.
So that is something to keep our eye on there.
But up next, we're going to shift to March Madness and discuss what is and what isn't.
Welcome into the show or well back into the show really into our B block,
which is beyond March Madness segment this week.
Very excited to be discussing March Madness with you guys.
We're going to start off with the men, get it out of the way, get it over, because no one cares.
It's come down to the final four of UConn Purdue in C-State.
And I literally I promise you, I have no idea who UConn is playing.
Seriously, I have no clue. I know in C-State.
I know UConn's in because they have their girls and their boys in.
Or their men and their women if you prefer that.
But they have apparently UConn's playing Alabama.
I should know that. I'm an SEC guy. Apparently UConn's playing Alabama.
But of course, the big matchup in the men's side is Zach Edeney versus DJ Burns Jr.
The reigning national player of the year.
Zach Edeney from Purdue and DJ Burns Jr. from NC State.
Burns has caught a lot of national attention for being like Zach Randolph, honestly.
He's an undersized big, but he's got a nice touch.
His physical body's down low.
He was talking noise back to Duke fans when he sent them home.
And NC State, I mean, they were the 11th seed.
They were a shot away in the conference tournament, not even making it to the NCAA tournament.
They only got in because they won their conference tournament.
And they were the 11th seed and they've been on a run ever since.
Shout out DJ Burns, man.
He's one of those guys that he's garnering NFL attention because he's listed as 6'9", 275".
Most people say that when they've got to him, he's 6'7".
He's about 6'7", probably 275 is accurate.
But 6'7", you don't see where he steps on the scale at.
But 275 is probably more accurate.
And then 6'7", instead of 6'9".
6'7", 280 is a hell of a left tackle or a right tackle.
A lot of people are saying that he should enter the NFL draft.
You have people saying that he should go work out because NC State's pro day,
football pro day is a week after the Final Four.
So people are saying like, man, he could go play, he could go do the Final Four
and then learn how to kickstep basically and work out at the pro day.
Bench, jump, run the 40, do like the L drills, and then basically be a project.
And at that size and footwork, you can imagine he'd be a pretty good tackle.
It's just a man off his tackle probably because it's by the type.
He could probably be a pretty good off his tackle.
He'd have to learn football, of course, and he's never played it.
He admittedly had a deep dive too far into his back story,
but obviously he had to play at the collegiate level.
So he'd have to learn NFL football and he'd have to learn block.
But he's not going to be in the NBA.
He's a 6'7", center, right?
And not even a new style center.
He really doesn't juggle and can't shoot past mid-range.
He's not very athletic vertically.
So he's not an NBA player, right?
He's not a Euro, he's not big enough.
So if he's going to play professional sports,
it would behoove him to at least consider the NFL.
Not football for everybody.
He may have talked about it, he's not going to hate it.
He's never flat out denied it.
I know he's heard it.
Multiple NFL guys are talking about it.
Pierre Schrager is one of them saying that no, the NFL answers to him is real.
Multiple GMs and stuff have kind of looked at him and said, what if, with that body?
So I'm sure he's heard it.
If he has a representative, they would to me be committing professional malfeasance
if they don't even mention it to him.
Okay, the NFL's called.
A couple GMs have reached out to me and said,
would your guy be interested in the tryout?
Would your guy be interested in working on his pro day?
Et cetera, et cetera.
To me, he would garner, especially a pro day so late,
he would garner a lot of interest even if a team just sends the regional scout,
whoever the regional scout is.
It sends him like, hey, go take a look at that kid or go film it for him
just to see how he looks in shirt.
You see his body.
He's in a t-shirt.
He's in a jersey and shorts.
You see his body.
Just how would he look at a football situation?
Have him bench press.
Have him squat.
Have him do vertical, do the L drill, do the agility stuff.
Of course, kick-stepping is not going to be a thing for him.
He's probably never done it.
Also, he's done it.
It's been so long he's used to, you know, back people down the post.
But, you know, that's kind of where his career athletically is going to go.
Now, I was talking to a few people and they said, no, he's going to be an academic kid.
Like, he's a good basketball player, but he went to school for like a real degree.
So I thought he was going to use that very real degree to go make money in life.
But to me, I think he should at least give the NFL a crack.
And his competitor, Zach Eadney, he's not in the NBA Center either.
He's going to be one hell of a hero.
People say he's 7'4 and he's dominating.
Yeah, he's dominating college and he's 7'4.
The NBA has moved away from big, slow, plotting, back-to-the-basket style centers that don't really shoot.
It's called Jaleel Okafor.
Like, they didn't work then and the NBA is further away from it now.
Um, like LeBron spoke about in episode 3 of Mind the Game,
like Eric Spouser went to Oregon and learned spread offensive football and then translated it back to basketball.
Like, that's what people are doing now.
Like, the big style center like Zach Eadney doesn't work.
And he's not even athletic like Steven Adams or Nick Claxton where they're vertical, off the floor and flying.
Like, that big, plotting, slow style doesn't really work in the NBA anymore.
The game has moved away from that.
Now, in Europe, that's most of the centers.
You know, he can go dominate Europe, but they're going to make a hell of a lot of money in Europe.
If I'm him, I try the NBA out.
I'm a lottery pick.
I play that rookie contract.
But if it's looking like I'm going to be a one-year, $5 million guy or two years, $10 million kind of guy,
I'm taking my talents from Europe, Australia.
I'm going to play overseas because they still play that way.
With the big guy in the middle, feed him in the post, bags down, he's physical,
he can hit stuff off the rim and it's not a goal-ten.
So I think Zach Eney is going to make one hell of a year old.
And UConn has been dominating everybody, right?
They've been blowing everybody out.
Their last two tournaments, which they won last year,
and they are well on their way to winning again this year.
They haven't had a game under double digits.
They have been destroying people.
I expect that to continue against Alabama.
I expect UConn to roll to their second straight national title.
But on to the women's side, the interesting side, the side that anybody cares about.
We already spoke about one of the stars is gone.
Angel Reese has declared for the Devon B. Draft.
And her last game was against Iowa and Kaitlyn Clark.
Now, you're going to see this on the YouTube show JTS After Dark,
kind of the anecdotal breakdown of the game.
But Kaitlyn Clark was on fire.
She hit nine threes, I believe, nine out of 18.
She was raining them from everywhere, mostly drifting to her left.
The scouting put it out on her.
Press up on her.
Don't drop coverage.
Make her go right.
Because at least she goes right, she's going to drive most of the time.
And you take your chance on the other shooters,
but you don't let her fade to her left, bombing away.
She wants to go that way.
That's a practice shot for her.
And Jai on the YouTube show was like, yeah, you want her to fade in three or a layup,
or open three from one of her teammates.
An open three from one of her teammates.
Hannah Stalky can have all the threes she wants.
Kaitlyn Clark fading left.
That's her shot.
28 feet fading a little bit to the left is her shot.
I'm not going to let her keep firing that shot away.
I disagree with Kim Walker's decision to put Hailey Van Lith on her.
I especially disagree as I found out Hailey Van Lith had an IV in her body earlier that day.
And she was struggling to breathe because she was legitimately sick.
And you have her chasing around one of the more mobile, one of the more active guards in the country
who shoots from literally anywhere.
So there's no time to breathe and release and try to get your thoughts right together
because you have to be on one all position.
Because Kaitlyn Clark can fire from literally anywhere in the state of Albany.
In the city of Albany, she can fire from.
And so having Van Lith chase her around in a situation I thought was a mistake to begin with,
like I said, adding even more if I think I Van Lith was sick,
you have a two-way player who sooner or closer personal last year
saw how Alexis Morris defended her last year.
And Flau'jae Johnson who's been our best two-way player.
And you decide to not do that until fourth quarter and Flau'jae has three fouls.
So even then she couldn't really get two in two because she had three fouls already.
I thought that was a poor decision.
I thought having our bigs and drop coverage on pick was a poor decision.
So now when Kaitlyn Clark comes around that screen,
where at first LSU guards were going under.
So Kaitlyn's just bombing open threes because they're going under.
Then they started going over with the bigs and drop coverage.
So now once they go over the bigs and drop, it's still an open three.
So I just thought that Kim Mokhee didn't have the best game plan ready to go.
They have been fighting a lot of external issues.
Kim Mokhee of course was threatening the defamation lawsuit against the Washington Post.
For their article that came out, very non-defaming article.
There was nothing in the article that would shock you.
The only thing that to me she was getting hot issue water for was her stance on the LGBT community.
And I think that she was the front for the university
because Baylor is the biggest Baptist university in the country.
And I think she was the mouthpiece for the university.
In regards to her stance on the LGBT community.
But she had players on the team that she would make jokes at.
Dee Dee Richards.
Yeah, Ms. Dee Dee Richards.
She had the big giant puffs and she had colorful hair.
And so one day Dee Dee recalls Kim walking up to her going,
and I quote, you and those damn hair colors.
And are you going to wear those two pointy tails every game kind of thing.
And Dee Dee took an ingest.
But it was definitely a situation where if you didn't take an ingest
or you weren't used to Kim Mokhee being Kim Mokhee, you could be offended.
But that was like I said, the only thing that to me that could get her in hot water really
was her stance with the LGBT community.
It also in the post article discussed that Kim had spoken to her father in 37 years
and her sister in five to six.
And then that wasn't that bad.
But then the LA Times article comes out referencing LSU as dirty debutantes.
Which I Google the term dirty debutante to find out what that is.
But it's appalling to call anyone that.
It's definitely appalling to call young women that.
You don't know no affiliation with.
You call them this because they're black and loud.
And so that was supposed to be a dig at southerners because it was UCLA versus LSU.
So debutante is a popular southern phrase.
So I think it was a dig at southerners and dirty debutantes.
But it's also a double entendre with what dirty debutante actually means.
So that was pretty outrageous.
And Kim Occa got talked about that and so did Haley Van Lyft and others.
But getting to the game itself, they said Kailin was right in this.
She was the best player on the floor.
The game turned early second quarter.
Iowa jumped out early.
Kailin hit a couple of big ones.
They're getting help from the others.
LSU's not really doing anything.
It gets nervous in my house.
And then Angel Reese.
She must have known this was my last league game.
She was going.
She was ready to go.
And she's stealing passes.
She's blocking shots.
At one point she blocks Kailin Clark.
And she's rolling.
I think after the first half, after the first quarter, she has like 10 points, 5 rebounds, 3 assists, 2 steals, and 2 blocks.
I mean she's rolling.
LSU actually charges.
They were down like 10-2 early.
And then she turns up.
And I was yelling at TV.
I'm like no one in Iowa can guard you.
And so we can just hold it down on defense.
We're there with all of you.
That's Kailin and I with standing.
No one in Iowa can guard you.
Keep going.
Keep attacking.
Whatever.
And she blocks.
I think she blocks Kailin again.
And yeah she does.
She blocks Kailin again.
And she's kind of jogging.
Kind of a safe area.
You know like when you come down.
I think you guys are running a couple rows into the bleachers.
It's a safe area.
You come down and kind of get your feet.
And as she's going into the safe area, she's still kind of halfway looking back.
Because once you plot your course out, just go straight.
You know what I'm saying?
Like don't turn.
She's still halfway kind of looking back to see which way the ball's going, etc.
And she trips on something.
And they never show what she trips on.
I'm sure there's a camera that sees her.
But she stumbles on something.
She goes down and she gets up hopper.
She injured the ankle in the SEC Tournament.
Of course there's no real rest for the weary.
It probably was a mid ankle sprain.
It wasn't high.
Of course she was playing.
But it's an ankle sprain.
What do you do for ankle sprain?
You rest.
What do you not have time to do on an SEC Tournament?
Then into the NCAA Tournament?
Rest.
So the longest time up here she would have had to rest had been about a week.
From the conference championship game to the start of the round of 64.
Then she'd been playing every weekend.
And she re-rode it.
And after that her offense changes.
She finishes with for the rest of three quarters seven points and 15.
She had all the rebounds she wanted.
But it was the explosion of her second jump.
Now she's not as quick of her movements.
And Ellis's offense took a nosedive.
Kailin Clark kept hitting.
She had a couple of teammates that hit some big shots.
Hannah Stolke.
I think the girl's last name was Morgan.
I can't think of her last name right now.
But she was making shots.
And it was Iowa's night.
In a best of seven I would probably go LSU 4-2.
But it was Iowa's night.
Or 4-3 LSU.
But you know, it's the NCAA Tournament.
It's one shot.
Iowa was the one shoe for a reason.
They made shots when they had to.
And Kailin went to a nosedive.
A couple of her teammates made shots.
And so that's what kept Iowa winning.
There was an angle on one leg.
Haley was sick.
Leah Delzaro looked like she wanted no part of that game when the angle got hurt.
And kudos to Iowa for moving on.
Game broke a lot of records.
It's been widely discussed.
I posted it, but I'll discuss it here.
12.3 million average viewers.
The most watched ESPN telecast sports-wise.
ESPN broadcast sports.
Most watched female game ever.
Most watched male or female game this season.
It outdid everything on the ESPN platforms.
Except for two college games.
Michigan, Ohio State.
And I think the National Championship game.
And then it outdid every NBA game.
But game five, the NBA finals.
It outperformed every MLB game.
And the NFL doesn't count.
So kudos to those ladies.
They put on an absolute show.
And so it almost like they didn't get come down.
The NLB's are watching for all the off the court stuff.
And all the social media stuff.
And everything that happened centered around LSU.
Well last year it gets culminated on Monday night.
Angel Reese breaks down.
She breaks down in tears when they ask her about her teammates.
Not because she lost.
That's a narrative that was penned and edited a certain way.
She didn't cry because they lost.
She cried because her teammates were defending her.
And what she goes through off the court.
Then she broke down.
And spoke about everything she's been going through since she won the championship.
Sexism, racism.
She's been sexualized.
She spoke about how she hasn't truly been happy since she won.
She hasn't had a happy day since she won the title.
Since they won the title.
Since I won they haven't had a happy day.
Her teammates defended her and spoke about her very highly.
And what she was able.
What she was doing for them along with what she did for LSU.
So we started it.
But kudos, absolutely kudos to her and her amazing career.
She's a two time All-American team.
Two time Woodland American team I believe.
She's a Woodland award finalist last year.
SEC player of the year.
I believe both years she was at LSU.
Double double queen.
NIL legend.
What she did for the NIL game.
I mean she's the reason why all these female athletes have NIL deals.
I'm going to be honest.
Angel Reese was so successful at it that her marketability showed they could do it for everybody else.
NIL legend.
You know she was a brand.
She was the Bayou Barbie.
She was everything to women's basketball.
What she had to be.
And it was a heavy crown.
She wore a crown a lot.
I mean people thought it was braggy.
It was symbolic.
Because her head wore a crown.
She had a heavy crown to bear a lot.
She was the face of lesbianity.
She was and to be honest is the face of Black America girl of female basketball.
Like because the women's college game has surpassed the WBA popularity.
Has surpassed men's college basketball popularity.
She was the face of Black America basketball.
Collegially.
It was Angel Reese.
Who's the best player in college basketball right now?
Don't worry.
Like I'll wait.
Like you know what I'm saying.
Like pause it if you got to.
Think about it.
Like you don't have the answers to that.
She was the face of the movement.
A lot of these young girls want to be Angel Reese.
Like so that's a level of pressure that 15 months ago she didn't know.
I mean they won the title around the same time last year.
13 months she didn't know.
But LSU was a really good team.
Led by her.
Freshman named Flossey Johnson who rapped in hoop.
Like Flossey had a bigger presence.
Because Flossey had the rock nation deal.
Like she was on America's Got Talent like all stars.
And then she went to LSU.
Like she had a bigger cross over representation.
People were talking about Alexis Morris who's completely off her rocker now.
People were talking about Alexis Morris.
And it was a teen thing.
But the Bayou Barbie was a brand but she wasn't what she is now.
And I get it.
Her and Kailyn Clark got thrust in the middle of a race war on Twitter.
Like just from playing basketball.
Neither one of them had been sighted in it.
Neither one of them really participated in it.
They've done their best to quell it.
Like no we don't hate each other.
We like each other on the court.
Like we kick it.
Like we're both playing on representing Team USA one day.
Like that sort of thing.
And they got thrust into the middle of a race war.
Like that's the stuff Andres had to deal with while she was in college.
I wish she would have came back one more year selfishly.
Because I would have loved to see that team put together.
And I would have loved to see like her.
Hailey Van Lyth as far as I know hasn't declared.
So you know she'll be back.
But I would have loved to see that whole squad come back one more year.
And then go for it.
You know Nisamaro, Flage, Angel, Hailey, and Last Tear Poa.
I think it's a senior right?
No she didn't have a senior.
Last Tear Poa, Michaela Williams, the transfer from Arkansas.
You get the other big bag.
I would love to see it happen as an LSU fan.
But I understand Angel probably just wanted to get away from the pressure for a little while.
Because all those same expectations and standards and that crown that she wore.
Like she would have been placed back on her head.
Because now you're a 50-year senior and you're coming back for one reason.
You have to come back because you're a gold digger.
Or you come back because you expect to win a title.
Not a gold digger but you're trying to make as much money as you can.
Which financially, and before we move into the next game.
Financially she's making the bad decision.
Like you can't tell me otherwise.
She's going to get drafted around pick seven.
Her time is going to be $68,000, $70,000 when she signs her name.
Now she has a hell of an off the court persona.
So logically she'll grind during the summer.
And then as soon as her WBS season ends.
She goes and does vogue.
She goes and does modeling.
She goes and does extensions and talk shows and appearances.
She popped into pop culture.
Being in the Cardi B song with the bar, it balled so hard.
I felt like I was going to LSU and she had injuries in the video.
You know like, um.
You know that sort of stuff.
And she can come back to LSU and she can do all these things.
But financially I know she has a Raising Cains deal.
That's because she's at LSU.
I know she has, it's another local.
She has a Mercedes Benz dealer VR.
That's an LSU type deal.
And it's another deal she has that's incredibly specific to her.
Oh Gordon, Gordon McKernan.
That's very specific, very high paid and IL deals.
Her time to be in LSU.
Now she has her Reebok which she has not pushed at all.
I guess she's been to LSU, she was a Nike school.
So now that she's leaving I'm sure Shaxx is about to blast her everywhere for a Reebok.
So that's going to be big.
She's picked up a couple national ads as well.
But marketability wise, if I have Kaitlyn Clark and I have Angel Reese,
marketability wise, Kaitlyn's got the advantage.
Because they're both going to come out together, they both have the same plan.
So Kaitlyn has the advantage.
Now Kaitlyn going to Indiana Fever and Angel, if she would have returned to LSU,
Angel would have had the IL advantage.
She would have had the endorsement advantage.
But of course she decided to move on.
I can't blame her.
Kudos to her.
I'll be watching whatever team she's on very carefully.
Like I do with all the LSU players that go.
But I'll be watching very carefully what team she goes to.
But in the next game, the second game was the future versus the current.
Paige Beckers and the UConn Huskies, what's left of them,
versus Juju Watkins and the USC Trojans.
It was a battle of the last person in the class of 2020 to still be around.
That high school class was Camilla Cadoza, Angel Reese,
Paige Beckers, Kaitlyn Clark, and Cameron Brink, the big out of Stanford.
They were all one high school class, class of 2020.
So now Paige is the last one left because Angel's gone.
Camilla, Cameron, Angel, and Kaitlyn all had the option to come back for the fifth year
because of that COVID year, they all passed.
They all declared together.
And Paige Beckers, I truly think due to her injury, decided she was going to come back.
She decided that early about a month and a half ago.
She decided she was going to go back to UConn.
I'm really sure because of her injury, she made that decision.
She missed all of last season.
So she's the last of the class of 2020, which is a super class.
Juju Watkins is the leader of the class 2024, which is a super class.
It's Juju Watkins.
It's Michaela Williams at LSU.
It's Fulwale.
Malaysian Fulwale in South Carolina, just to name a few of them.
That's going to be a class we're going to look back on in three years and go, my goodness.
Fulwale may have two titles.
Michaela might have one and Juju might have the other one.
They may end up splitting the four titles in their four years just to level in that group.
And they delivered.
It went from star V star, it went from mega star to mega star in Angel versus Kalen.
It went to superstar to superstar in Juju versus Paige.
They delivered.
Both of those ladies put on a show.
Paige Beckers led her team to victory.
I spoke about it with people.
I expected UConn to win the game.
And that's because UConn, as beat up as they were, Juju didn't have Leah Edwards on her team.
Leah Edwards is going to be a top 10 pick in the WNBA draft.
Juju didn't have that.
The better coach is Juna O'Riomah.
So you go with the better coach, older, more experienced person, you should be in those moments.
Paige's first year.
Did they win her first year?
Or they got close her first year.
Then they went to the final four her sophomore year.
She blows her knee her junior year.
Kind of her red shirt junior year basically.
They're back at the final four.
But she's been there, right?
And she's on a mission.
And she's big in her faith, big in God.
And she's God-led right now.
So she's on a roll, she's on a mission.
And Juju didn't have the help.
Juju's literally playing with Ivy Leagueers.
You know what I mean?
No disrespect to the Ivy Leagueers.
You guys are smarter than me by a long shot.
I could never have dreamed of getting into Harvard.
Okay, that's like a different story.
But, you know, Harvard wasn't my thing.
I wasn't doing that.
You were able to be a high school athlete and get into Harvard.
Kudos to you, right?
But there's a different level of athlete.
Not in Harvard, let's be honest here, right?
And it's literally Juju Rockins and a team of Ivy Leagueers.
And she carried them as an 18-year-old to the Elite Eight.
And shout out to her.
I mean, she shot literally, look at the shot chart.
They only played like eight people, seven people.
She shot 26-ish times.
Number 25, who's name I don't know, shot like the same amount of times.
And nobody else shot more than like eight.
Like those two shot all the shots because they were the only two,
I'm being honest, non-Ivy Leagueers on the floor.
But the number one recruiting class is on the way to USC.
So if Juju has her help next season, I expect them to be very good.
Juju was crying in the handshake line all up in the tunnel
at the post-game conference she broke down.
That's going to be someone you're going to have to stop.
You're going to have to keep her off the title.
I'm talking she's going to be up there in USC in the world
with Cheryl Miller and Lisa Leslie.
You're going to have to do a lot to keep Juju Rockins away from multiple titles
while she's at USC.
She's going to not feel bad for you because she's coming guns blazing.
She's going to go into Ann Arbor.
She's going to go into Columbus.
She's not going to care.
She's better than you.
She's the smoothest freshman that I've seen probably since Paige Becker's.
But she's got Paige beating sides.
But Paige has her own experience.
It was a very popular, very smooth action USC run.
So they kind of run Juju off these weave screens and get to the left side of the floor.
And then she usually works her way back right to get back to her right hand.
And they ran it twice out of a timeout and Paige stole it both times.
I mean, it wasn't like she got lucky and Juju put it down like she poked it.
Like she stole the pass.
She weave through right behind her and she jumped the pass both times.
I believe scored on both.
No, she scored on the first one.
And then she got fouled but they didn't call it in a second.
But regardless, she was a fast break by Paige the other way.
She stole it both times.
That's just from an experience thing.
That's from having to learn the things she could do where ACL is appearing.
Watched a bunch of films.
You can definitely tell Paige was watching a ton of films in her off time.
And she watched it on USC.
But kudos to the ladies for showing out.
They had the world's attention.
And everybody watching, Devon Booker scored 50 something points on my New Orleans Pelicans.
I didn't watch a single bucket of it.
I still have not seen what comes of it.
Not because I don't want to see it because it just hasn't been covered.
The women have completely taken over the basketball scene right now.
So kudos to them.
Shout out to them.
They've earned it.
The women's game has always been good.
I love that on Twitter now that's becoming a thing.
Oh, women.
Somebody quoted it ignorantly and tweeted,
Man, women, we told y'all when y'all get a good product, the men are going to have to support it.
And everybody's going, no, the women have always been really good.
Y'all are just noticing for the first time.
Like I'm old enough to remember Candice Parker at Tennessee.
Brianna Stewart winning four straight at UConn.
Maya Moore at UConn.
Brittany Griner and Addison Sims at Baylor.
South Carolina when this started.
Azra Wilson and her crew.
Like I'm old enough to remember this, right?
And so the women's game just didn't get good.
It's been good.
Simone Augustus, Sylvia Files, Tameka Johnson at LSU.
The women's game has been good.
We're just noticing for the first time.
Which, welcome.
I'm glad you realized how good the women's game is.
I'm glad you realized it's actually more captivating than the men.
So kudos to you.
Yeah, you love women's college basketball?
Go watch the WNBA.
You know, they're even more competitive.
Because there's 36 draftees in the WNBA every year.
Probably nine of them are going to make the opening day roster.
There's 144 spots.
And I think it's going to drive expansion.
I think it's going to do a lot of stuff.
Golden State's already bringing in their expansion team.
So it's going to go to 13 teams.
I believe they're going to put another team in.
And I heard Portland.
I heard a couple of city options.
Portland is one of the more popular ones.
And also they may look at it adding to the team in Canada.
Because of how well the Canadians sold out.
The game, the Sparks had a game over there.
And they sold out.
Scotiabank.
It was a crazy environment.
So they love their basketball in Toronto.
Some would be surprised if Toronto gets a WNBA franchise themselves.
But the attention is going to drive the money.
The money is going to drive expansion.
Expansion is going to drive eyes.
So kudos to Women's Basketball for showing up on your stage.
You had the war of attention.
You delivered.
But up next, we're going to shift to Jack's Hot Take.
And today's show is going to be Smoke and Mirrors draft season.
Welcome back into the show.
And now we're going to discuss in Jack's Hot Take,
Smoke and Mirrors NFL draft season.
To talk about the people we've officially reached that part.
Reached it about a week ago actually.
Where we've been talking about people who haven't played a game since at
latest early January.
Like if you look at Marvin Harrison Jr.,
I don't think they played their bowl game.
So D.U. hadn't played since like December.
You look at JJ McCartney, he won the title,
he was the last person to play.
He was at the first weekend of January.
Drake May hasn't played since like December.
Jane Daniels didn't play in the bowl game. He hadn't played since like late
November or December. Look at all these top prospects. A lot of them weren't JJ
McCarthy. A lot of them didn't make the playoffs, right? So we're talking about
people who even if they had they hadn't played football at this point in three
months. Two and a half. But by the time of draft comes three and a half
months for a basketball team. Sometimes four and a half. Depending on who opted out of bowl games.
It's smoke and mirror season. Smoke and mirror season basically is people are
going to try and drum up a controversy. The odds are shifting less than right
who's gonna be the number two pick. Now it's shifting in the Drake May. Drake
May going number two to Washington when it's been like Jane Daniels the entire time.
And it was like the Drake May's gonna go number two to Washington. You know what I'm saying?
That's smoke and mirrors out. Malik Nevers been the number one receiver on the board.
That was out before this time. That's gaining popularity. New England
potentially trading with Minnesota for 11 and 23. That's gaining popularity. A lot
of different stuff is out there gaining. I mean one of the football topics
seriously for two days was DJ Burns a basketball player at NC State. We discussed it
earlier. Legitimately getting like he should be should go to the NC State Pro Day.
Like that's where we're at right now is that people are trying to find stories.
I think Burns actually would make a good solid football player. At least he'd make
more money playing football even on a training camp deal that he wouldn't NBA.
I'm just gonna be honest with you. But you know we're just looking for stuff to
talk about. You know the UFL you know is gonna start making hey real headlines
because this is nothing for people to watch. You know your UFL is pretty good
football. There's nothing for people to watch consume and enjoy right now right?
And so this smoke and mirror season look if it sounds too off the wall to believe
don't believe it. And that's kind of how I do with the draft coverage. Like people
are saying that Arizona may go like tackle or something. Like they're not
drafting Joe Alt bro. Like they have Kyle Amaro on a very large contract with no
one for him to throw the ball to. They're gonna draft Marvin Harrison Jr.
or Malik neighbors. Like they're not about to let Kyler even behind a
rookie tackle who's not gonna be all that great at first you would assume.
But he's still not about to throw the ball to. They're gonna draft Marvin Harrison Jr.
There's reports out now that the Minnesota Vikings may just start
Kirk Cousins and wait till next year's draft to get a quarterback. Not Kirk Cousins.
Sam Donald. Why? I love Sam Donald. I really do. At 11 you'll probably have
your pick between JJ McCarthy, Michael Pinnix and Bo Nicks. All of who most
teams have between the first and a second round. You have your pick at 11.
And if you don't like them at 11, use 23 instead of coming up and get another one.
Like you have flexibility to get a quarterback. Unless you just outing
anybody after the big three. I don't get the theory of punting.
Especially when you got Justin Jefferson. The year of effectively punting a year and saying
we'll let Sam Donald start. Doesn't matter what the record is. We'll try to get our guy at 25.
That's an interesting strategy.
And there's big decisions that's happening.
Stephon Diggs of course being traded to the Houston Texans. So the bills are obviously
in the receiver market. If they weren't already. They don't have a receiver on the roster.
They're obviously in the receiver market. So that's not a smoke and mirrors.
People saying they want receivers. Yeah that's pretty obvious.
They just traded Stephon Diggs for no players back. But a second round pick.
I believe there's draft. But there is nothing getting back to them player wise.
So they're in the receiver market. Stuff like that.
If you're a Chiefs fan and you're hearing there's scouting quarterbacks.
Don't believe it. So a lot of fan fans trip out. I get questions.
I get asked about what's happening. I'm like that doesn't make sense.
Why would they do that? If you're Chicago and they're hearing you're
driving anybody but a quarterback. You're insane. At this point anybody but Caleb Williams.
You're insane. Key and Allen flew to Caleb Williams for that. In LA.
Key and Allen had just traded to the Bears. He was at Caleb Williams pro day.
If that don't tell you what's going to happen with the Bears number one over our pick.
I don't know what does. So really watch this on the clock.
I think the NFL used to let you sign a player early if you had the number one pick.
The last person to do it from memory was I believe Jake Matthews to Tennessee.
Tennessee I haven't wondered to sign them early but because the NFL has such a big drama of who the number one pick is going to be.
They don't want you to do that. But like Jacksonville knew they were picking Trevor Lawrence month in advance.
Months in advance they had they were already Urban Meyer and then were installing the offense with Trevor Lawrence like months in advance.
So him being picked. They just couldn't officially announce he signed before the draft.
Because they still have to get drafted. It's weird. The NFL has a bunch of pretty tasty things. It's whatever.
But basically the whole world knows watch this on the clock.
If you're a commander's fan and you hear anything but they're drafting quarterback don't believe it.
My point in this is hey it's smoke and mirror season.
A lot of guys a lot of pundits for them they haven't had a real game of football to talk about in going on two months.
And if you're a college analyst you haven't had a real game going on three months.
They are trying to find any and everything to talk about.
Don't get fooled come to a good source like myself and a few other guys for good reliable sourcing and research.
But don't get fooled by the nonsense.
But that is all I have for today. I hope you guys have a great rest of your Wednesday.
