Story of two superstars: Wemby gets hacked in the face, no foul call. He doesn't react to the referee but moves on. Brown gets pushed, no foul call. Brown overreacts and gets a tech. 2 stars with different priorities and reactions. A story of a mature star and an immature star.
Bam should have called off the bs. Not hating on the guy, but I think he made a mistake there.
So you guys just don't watch Laker games…. Telling stats about Deandre Ayton shots… watch the games for a change…
Im sorry Legs but its not like there is a consistent formula to get Ayton to play hard. The stats you said are the stats, but Ive watched every Lakers game and there have been plenty of times where they give Ayton plenty of touches and he just cant get to his own shot or he still doesnt rebound or play defense. The juice is not worth the squeeze with him. He is a toddler. I wish JJ would just bench him the rest of the year. The team is much better without him.
Hey guys, FYI
We are instructed , (suggested) to not double T a person in the same instance. It is the job of the OTHER official, especially the referee, to "step in" to provide the technical that will be the ejection.
When you see us, (not all) waiting there while a player barks at us after a tech? That is usually us emulating the video most of us watched, flat faced and neutral , waiting for the other crew mates to step in.
These are suggestions, not rules for us.
TERRIBLE REASON TO TAKE UP FOR D.A…..SAYIN OR ACTIN LIKE THAT AFTER A WIN AND GOOD GAME….. NOT A GOOD LOOK AND SEEMS SELFISH
CAUSE A LOTTA THOSE PO8NTS ARE. LOBS
They didnt even mention Fox for spurs 😂😮
Glossing over SGA’s MVP moment vs the nuggets…should’ve known on nuggets central
Bam isn't even that good of scorer!!! If the Thunder and SGA or Lakers and Luka said one night "We're playing the Wizards, let's get the single game record"… they could do it better than Bam did! But if those teams and coaches pulled what the Heat did and their guy shot 43 free throws… They'd get ripped by the media. I think it's cheap, unearned, weak sauce. Not authentic basketball.
Boston was winning the game before Brown got ejected and it completely changed the dynamic of the game. Was he fouled? Who cares? He should not have been ejected from a national TV at the midpoint of the 2nd quarter between two top teams because the refs got in their feelings.
The end of that heat game was nasty…but I get it Legs, 83 is 83 and give him his props
Best NBA podcast. EASY
Yall got on the lakers for not beating good teams. They beat the knicks and wolves back to back and crickets, tHeY hAd aN oFf nIgHt LAkaS sUx
I love how angry tim got
I’m a Wolves fan and I wish they were as serious as the San Antonio Spurs.
We always wonder why the wolves have so many up-and-down games and lose against lesser teams. It’s because they are an unserious team themselves.
100 doesn't seem that crazy anymore, with the pace of the game and the 3s. 25 a quarter. I think it'll be someone unexpected just like 83 was, like Deni Avdija or Trey Murphy III or something
Jaylen went too far, but the Celts were getting hosed by the refs for the second time in San Antonio.
He was sick of it.
i get celtics coaching / system is elite but their bench is pritchard, vucevic, scheierman, walsh, garza, harper jr, hugo. i have no idea what to expect from any of those guys in the playoffs outside of maybe pritchard but even him being as small as he is will be a problem defensively. that’s not a championship roster to me as much as they’ve exceeded expectations this season.
If Draymond did what brown did, he would have been tossed with no issues from the public. Why did brown go back for seconds?
The disrespect that OKC continues to get is unreal. 2nd most man games lost to injury this year and they’re still the 1 seed. SA hasn’t even played 1 series with this team.
JB 100% needs to take accountability for getting ejected. He can’t put himself in that position.
No comment on thunder nuggets? Might have been game of the year even with shais B team
Watching it back
Brown did walk away but turned back to Ford pointing and talking before getting his 1st T
That's on Brown unfortunately
Tim is 100% correct about keeping Ayton involved, HOWEVER, there has been several games where the Lakers tried force feeding him over & over & he kept fumbling the ball losing the possession, got out muscled by smaller players, & bizarrely in Dallas couldn't throw the ball into the ocean. He must've missed close to 10 shots under 5ft from the basket.
Stephon Castle is incredible man. One of the best POA defenders in the league especially with Wemby backing him up, portable to multiple sizes even up to some PFs. Great passer, excellent lob passer (Thank you CP3) and he works so well with other paint touching guards in Fox and Harper. His shot is looking better and better each game. He needs a floater game to really make the big under the rim commit to coming out to him otherwise they just load up at the rim and force him into a very difficult layup. He's going to have a great career.
fine the refs
When I look at the Lakers loss to the Wolves last year in the playoffs, this season puts everything in perspective. Luka was out of shape.
The Lakers front line was so decimated that Rudy Gobert looked like Wilt Chamberlain against the Lakers. I know Ayton has some issues but I really believe Luka will break the Spurs heart in the second round.
This is a really dumb take considering the ejection of Jaylen Brown in the 2nd. Knicks exposed them. But then, the NBA powers always let refs help Spurs.
There is such a thing as good sportsmanship and playing smart. I wouldn't mind the rules followed more closely and consistently with regards to player temper-tantrums. The integrity and ultimately the enjoyment of the game is diminished when the game is officiated according to the demands of marketing and media.
Ugly bridesmaids chant was amazing
Absolutely correct about LeBron, Adam. LeBron should be the #3 scoring option but the #1 passing option. Reaves is much better as a starter than coming off of the bench, as well. It didnt make sense to me when they were bringing Austin off of the bench. & I think their record now reflects that.
I don’t know what’s going on with the show this year but it seems like y’all are trying your best to give other teams more props, so the show doesn’t seem boring, reminding everyone that OKC will repeat.
Wemby is a dominant defensive player but what happens when he goes cold from 3? Y’all didn’t even touch on this variable, because Wemby definitely wants to shoot the 3. He has no post game and refuses to commit himself to playing closer to rim.
Not to mention the optics, when your teammates can’t hold you back??????? No comparative analysis of how Wemby handled the Nose Job and not crashing out like others would.???
Pus..y refs. Luka was right the whole time when he straight up call them that. Bro if Wilt played against todays Nuggets do you seriously think he wouldn't have another 100 point game? Imagine Jokic contesting Wilt lol.
I like Tim and Adam but I disagree here about Jaylen Brown. This guy has been constantly complaining about referees on postgames, podcasts etc. He was even fined for it. He seems to have a chip on his shoulder. Also, the last time he was this heated it was also against this Spurs team. It seems like he is not getting calls his way against the Spurs and is taking it out against referees. Its pathetic actually.
I have never seen this many people in a comment section be pro-officiating & pro tossing a guy
I want to believe in San Antonio as contenders but I just cannot trust a team whose 3 primary ball-handlers are bad 3pt shooters
so you mean Adam, you cant eject a superstar if its a national televise game?.. what kind of f_cking media are you, bs take! so mean the ref was wrong, there's no rules that you cant eject a player if its a televised game. you both wrong here.
Tim and the Spurs talk are my favorite duo on YouTube!!! Much love
I can not believe how the media is reacting to Brown's ejection. Putting all the blame on the official is, frankly, ridiculous. Where is Brown's culpability? Why didn't he control himself and not over-react to borderline call in the 2nd quarter? Wemby was literally smacked in the face on a drive to the basket earlier in the game. He easily could have broken his nose: no call from the refs. Did Wemby get in the ref's face or cause a scene? Nope. He stayed focused and stayed in the game.
It was ALL Brown's fault. He lacked the composure and focus to control himself. The fact that he's basically being excused(Im especially disappointed in Legler) is insane.
Everyone continues to dog this referee. What about JBrown! He is a veteran and a leader and he acted like a spoiled child. He made his point on the first technical. Why didn’t he ended it there and by the way that was a flop!
I don’t care if its a high profile game, Brown not controlling his temper got him the 2 techs I dont care if it wasn’t the same ref that gave him the first tech he threw a tantrum and got kicked out
If Boston goes on a run, they need to be 1 game up on Boston to get home field in the finals …
now Boston are 5 games out and need a 6th because of the tie breaker….
If JB stays in and Boston wins … they are 4 games out with 1-1 head to head …
As of now, Boston been on a run but I guess we will see at the end and also they both have to make it to the finals ….
Probably… meaningless …
Not teams seem to lock in the 2 and both are going for the 1 seed .. so we will see how it effects SA and Boston 1 or 2 seeds and if the 2-0 SA head to head means anything at the end… right now there’s no way to tell…
I’ve been to that bar & had no idea this is where you podcast Adam! Would love a live show with audience if you & Legs ever pod again. Great bar and great vibes there👍🏼
Scott Foster…LOL
