Nightcap Hour 1: NBA’s Kawhi INVESTIGATION to DRAG Into 2027?! + Cade Cunningham NEEDS HELP + Tony Allen Calls LeBron OVERRATED Defender + DC Young Fly JOINS Nightcap

27:37Yeah, I agree. I agree. I thought Tobias was huge in the postseason. They lost to Cleveland, right? Huh? Did they lose to Cleveland? Yeah, they lost to Cleveland in seven. Yeah, yeah. But they needed some more scoring, bro. It was too much on K. and I think if you get guy if you could get if you could have got you know a guy like Austin Reeves hell even Kevin Durant but I'm gonna be honest my favorite who I wish Detroit could get and possibly it possibly could still happen it's Kyrie bro like I I ain't smooth I think it huh yeah I think it's possible I just think he's that uh he's he was that missing piece bro who could have took over games it wouldn't even 1-7 with Cleveland if Kyrie was in Detroit you feel me yeah like you know all he needed give up though I mean I don't know you have to fit you you hey if you Detroit you have to figure that out but if you can make that happen let's say okay for instance let's just say Dallas don't get off to a great start and they they willing to get off Kyrie I ain't saying it's gonna happen maybe he's staying in Dallas maybe it works out right but I just I I just love the way he plays.

28:49I love his patience. I love his poise to the game, his understanding of the game, on how to, you know, get to his spots, get a bucket. But not only that, but be effective and make plays and make guys around him better. And I think in the revenge store too, man, I seen him work out. Well, I went to Top 100 camp, and he was just giving the campers a lesson on, you know, how he works out and how he prepares and stuff like that. man just just looking at him as you know knowing knowing the game and the basketball player he you know he's coming back with a vengeance this this year i think hey you know what something to prove man hey it's funny you say that bro because uh when i sit back and think about it it's a few cats move who who coming into this season with revenge bro you know i i mean i mean you look at Kyrie who you just mentioned you look at Bron you look at JB you know these guys who have been traded and I think yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah is gonna come back on some on demon time oh man he gonna be downhill demon yeah you right you right hey he ain't gonna be messing around they hey I think the thing with the heat though they gotta put they gotta put a couple more you know good veteran pieces around him as far as keeping the floor space make sure you got some good shooting but i think he gonna attract so much attention bro because you already know you can't give him no crease or no crack he get in there it's a wrap you feel me thanks thanks so yeah it's gonna be a few guys bro who's gonna be on this this revenge tour i mean you look at i i know they've been the headlines but we've been talking about philly but it ain't just brawn bro it's jb to me you know what i mean smooth think about it.

30:36I like him a lot, man. People really don't give him the credit that he deserves. I look at what people do when star players are down and they say, oh, what you going to do without this player and that player? And they still like one or two in the Eastern Conference, you know what I'm saying? Yeah. Top three with pretty much the whole year with JB, you know what I'm saying? because he was really a supporting cast. And he was, he looked like one of the best players in the league. Looked like hell he was. What'd you mean? I'm talking like the two man, like what position they consider him at? Like two, three.

31:18He probably like the best two guard in the league. That's what I'm saying. Probably like the best two guard for sure. When you talk about locking up smooth, causing havoc, hey, you know, a dude got great endurance, bro. He picking you on full court. Yeah, when they give him second team. Huh? They give him second team. They give him second team what? He go second team all NBA. Did they do that to him? You know what? I'm sure he made the all NBA. I'm not sure what team he made though. I'm not sure, but with his productivity, bro, I just think - Like you said with the endurance though, picking up four goals and defense, and you gotta get a bucket on the other end.

31:55They depending on you to get a bucket. Both sides, bro. They, hey, hey, not only are they depending on you get a bucket hell they depending on you to get a stop on luca dantage hear me something like that i think hey bro i think philly i know we've been talking about this for quite some time bro but i think philly gonna be nice i think philly gonna be nice this is gonna be it's gonna it's gonna be how they how they rotate the they gotta find the right rotation you know i mean yeah you have to figure that out right yeah they gotta wrote they gotta figure out the rotations they gotta get that down yeah it probably you know it probably takes some adjusting preseason to be cool but you really won't get the full effect you know when the season first start they might get off to i ain't gonna say rocky start you know probably play 500 basketball for a little while before they kind of pull away and streak some wins together but i think they got the total team everybody talking about man can't none of them shoot they ain't man please Watch out them boys lock in.

32:59I'm telling you. Yeah. Shot makers, not shot takers, though. What'd you say? Shot makers, not shot takers. It ain't about being a shooter. Oh, yeah. Shooters still got to play shots, too. Yeah. Because, see, they're going to carry that confidence and that swag, bro, to be effective. I'm saying on both ends, I think all of them. But the NBA is going to be fun coming up, bro. it's gonna be a sight to see you know what i mean yeah yeah yeah thanks hey hey check this out you know your boy went viral man he going viral uh tony allen oh okay well he says uh he says lebron is an overrated defender never guarded katie in his prime and okc i mean hey hey chat chat let's take a listen let's take a listen to ta No, but just think about it.

33:57Any team you put LeBron on, we can make any scenario. When they play, let's just say OKC. Do you think LeBron starting out the game on KD to risk picking up two fouls? No, he's going to stick several oceans. So you got 41 minutes of sticking several oceans. Game get tight, late down and stretch in the last two, three minutes. You get a chase down block here and there. Then, now you get the win. Now you just like first team off defense. I disagree. I disagree. I disagree. I disagree. I disagree. I disagree. Me on the other hand. Hey, listen. All right, TA. We're going to need you to come through on this one.

34:36You can't let him get his average. And he ended up with 40. I get a few more episodes of that, I'm going to be in the G League. You see what I'm saying? That was my job. That was my title. That's what I had to do. That's how I played 14 years. It wasn't because I had a cold crossover. If you saw me smoke all the layups. Yep. But you know what? I bring you not getting your average to the table every night. Let's read some comments. Yeah. Oh, I've been getting them too. Come on. I didn't disagree. And I wasn't hating, man. I was just saying he not a better defender. Spoo. Hmm. What'd you think about what TA said, bro?

35:13I'm saying. Like, what was the question? So listen, so here it is. So look. I ain't saying. a better defender than lebron or what was the what was the question nah he's saying he's saying braun ain't no lockdown defender he's saying that uh you know when games start off braun it ain't like braun guarding kd for the whole game it may put somebody else he may put they may put braun on cephalosha so he don't pick up two fouls early but then in the last seconds of the game in the fourth quarter braun get a chase down block or something he get a stop he's saying that ain't like, you know, that ain't first team.

35:49That ain't like, you know what I'm saying? What do you think, bro? I got snubbed a lot of times on the defensive team, so I don't know, man. Yo, hey, hey, hey, but I think I got snubbed a whole lot. Yeah, you did, bro. But

36:06did he ever guard? When we played, when we played it, who guarded you? Well, you know, he never, to start the games off, he never guarded me. but Smooth, that's kind of understood, bro. That's understood. That's understood because we can't rest. I can't rest him. I mean, he's making sense out of it. He's making sense out of it. You know what I'm saying? Bro, when I was a rookie, Smooth, and I'm playing with Antoine Walker and Paul Pierce, Paul Pierce, third in the league in scoring at 27-28 a game. He the starting three. I'm the starting two. Listen, we playing against T-Mac, Vince Carter, Ray Allen, I got all these dudes for the first three quarters, bro.

36:50That's what it was. You know what I'm saying? Yeah. That's what it was. Yeah. Yeah. That was me too, though. You know, that was me. I had to guard pretty much every position that was cold. So. Yeah. I mean, I get what he's saying. I get what he's saying. But that doesn't mean that he's not a great defender, though. You know what I'm saying? That's what I'm saying, bro. That means that he has more value than a person just playing defense, respectfully. You know what I'm saying? We can bank on you, it's okay for you to foul out, but this dude can't foul out. Right, right. Not LeBron James, you get what I'm saying?

37:35That's what I'm saying. Yeah. But in TA's defense, I understand what you're saying, because there are times when you start off the game here you don't got no choice when we played against the miami heat and d-way i ain't got no choice me and d-way gotta guard each other the whole damn game yeah you know what i'm saying that's just what it was so uh i see what ta saying but i i i think lebron is uh above average defender bro he i mean smooth he 2008 2009 he finished second in defensive player of the year behind Dwight Howard. 2012-2013, he finished second behind Mark Gasol. I think this really would have come down to, Smooth.

38:20You want me to keep it real with T.A. and Bron? You know, obviously T.A. playing with the Celtics. You know what I'm saying? That little rivalry they had against Cleveland when he was in Bron, even in Miami. But out on top of that, maybe even some of the things that Bron may have said about Memphis. You know how T.A. and Zeebo out the mud, they, hey, them boys, Memphis, they D.I.E. You know what I mean? Yeah, facts, big facts. You know what I'm saying? So it can be stemming from a lot of different things, bro. You never know, but when I think about it, I'm like, hold on. T.A. just out here, he out here wildin'.

38:55He must be, uh. We gotta do a wellness check on them black trucks that ain't pull up on them? Yeah, I don't know. He must be over there. He must be on that Indica too or something.

By the fourth quarter I remember this shit like yesterday We done transferred Fox to go watch the game Now I'm at a whole other nigga house But I'm glued to the TV though I'm like We down It's four minutes now Listen When he caught the ball on his helmet Yeah My heart started being fast Listen cause I knew something was up I said I know they not about to do this shit I know they not about to do this Man, them folks scored again And the score was still 28 Them folks came all the way back From three points All we had to do was score one touchdown And we stopped doing everything We were doing in the first quarter That's why I love the Falcons But y 'all Rook my heart out of my chest then Oh man, hey, hey Y 'all know I know man, hey, hey, I apologize They built that Mercedes, that beautiful stadium right after that, thinking they were going to make it right back.

1:00:58You know what I mean? I ain't trying to rub it in on y 'all. I'm just saying, bro. I like going to the game. Hold on. What are you, though? Can I ask? I'm a Cowboy fan. I ain't going to lie to y 'all. I'm a Cowboy fan. I'm a Cowboy fan. You a Cowboy fan, boy. See how you do that? They do these things.

I was born in it. You know what I'm saying? I understand. I was born in it, man. So listen, I don't know if we play the Falcon this year, but if we do, man, me, you, and Smoog, you know, put a little something on it, you know. Oh, absolutely. I don't mind. Oh, you talking about on the Falcons? Yeah, you going to bet? I know you going to bet. We got to get our quarterback situation.

1:01:55Hold on. Hold on. Hold on. You don't think they going to? Oh, man. Why you keep doing this? Why y 'all keep doing this? If we have the same conversation every year, do you think we? No. No. Hold up. I'm going to tell you when I'm telling you. What we going to have to do is, first of all, we got to stop. I don't know what's our quarterback status now. That's what I'm trying to figure out. Previous. We are giving guaranteed money to injured players who was already injured coming off the injury list. Let me tell you something. We ain't had a quarterback to finish a season. So let that sink in. And he got guaranteed money.

1:02:54So who money is that? I'm not finna keep doing that. I'm finna go watch these hocks. And y 'all gonna have to tell me about it later. Hey, hey, hold on, hold on. Speaking of that, hey, we got a video I want to show, man. You jumped out of the trampoline. Come on, baby. Bounce. Come on, baby. good right now but this is right here

1:03:26hey dc tell the truth it's a lot harder than what people think though ain't it hey people don't understand first of all you you it's a lot of pressure it's pressure because people watch people act like they ain't watching but they watching you almost 15 20 feet away from the gold You hear me? You ain't no, so when them boy be doing them flips, you gotta respect that, you feel me? I missed the first one, I had to time it. But once I got it, I was up. Yeah, yeah, hey, hey, hold on. You know that little gym back there with a little tumbler be practicing that back there? Yeah! Bro, you know that was our practice facility when I played for the Hall.

1:04:01That's what we practiced at every day. Thanks. Back in the back where the tumblers be at? That's what we used to practice at every day, DC. Dang, so y 'all ain't had no practice facility? That's what we had, bro. That what we had, so listen. The entryway? Bruh. Y 'all was not practicing in the back entrance, bro. DC, we were hosting. DC. I know hell. DC, we were hosting training camp there, bro. That's what we were doing, everything. Every day, we had to go there to go to practice, bro. Through the entrance, y 'all would stay right there and practice. So you couldn't. Locker on to the left, the practice to the right, that little inch away thing to the right you know they look practice flow it's a little practice flow down a practice court it's got two yeah that's what i'm talking about oh dang but now they done built the whole facility oh yeah no no no they got they got a real country club now they got it they got it they got a real country club it's a little different now yeah it juiced up now hey expectations are a lot different you know what i mean that's why we be on them because listen we want y 'all boy to be successful because look at all the things we provided absolutely absolutely i think we're gonna be great this year we're gonna be busting bro we should hey we should come we should come into the season bro oh can i ask y 'all a question y 'all played the game what's that because y 'all played the damn game do you be real now how y 'all I feel about these three corners.

1:05:35How the game is played today? It's wild bro. Cause when I was coming up bro, you shoot that three, you get in that game. You yank it. They used to be on my ass. That's why I'm like, I only take three. I shot one three and nigga didn't get in no more. The scene. That's what I'm trying to tell you. It's hard out here. Y 'all guys do that. Hey, hold on. Smooth, what'd you say you did? I said, I'll take about three a game. They used to boot the shit out of me for about one and a half of it. I'm like, shit, these niggas can't even shoot. They take eight, nine threes a game. I'm like, yeah. You know, but it's like, I mean, it's crazy because a lot of these teams are falling into analytics.

1:06:23You know what I'm saying? Like, okay, so it's like, what if? An analytic is a what if. You know what I'm saying? So it's like if you shoot these threes, like, okay, if I shoot eight threes, they're banking on a person that makes three or four. But it's like, what if I can't shoot? Right. And what if you don't get sick in the third chance rebound? Or if I'm not even really working on shooting threes, but you're encouraging me to shoot. Right. Right, right. We're really not making a play for real. Everybody's standing at the three-point line. Like, it's a rotation pass. Like, we're looking at a rotation ball.

1:06:55I want to see more kids getting dunked on, man. That's what I want to see. put what a thing y 'all gotta understand man the game has changed bro it's changed drastically meaning smooth when we when we first came in you you played with two traditional bigs a power forward and a center and it wasn't won the whole lot of your power forward shooting threes at that time and here none of your centers were shooting smooth you're probably one of the only hybrids in the game at that time

1:07:27You got a Rasheed Wallace who'll come in and bust a move. Yeah. Them exceptions, though. Them exceptions. They don't even make them like that no more, fellas. Because, look, guess what? You know, back then, bro, when you were 6 '5", 6 '6", in high school, they probably going to put you under the basket. 6 '8", you going to be under the basket. Now, if you 6 '8", 6 '9", you working on your guard skill. You ain't got no back-to-the-basket game. You ain't got no post game. You know what I mean? The game's so - But you see the ones that still work on it, how effective and how good they look, how dominant they look like, Nicole Yoke and Joel and Pete.

1:08:03Yes. No, listen, the great ones, see, to win the game, it's always gonna be within between the lines, meaning like the three-pointer, the midi, what we call the midi, bro. The midi, right. That's what I'm saying. I think OKC kind of saved the game a little bit because they didn't win a championship based off the three-pointers. Right? They shot a lot of mid range. They shot a lot of mid range. What's called like that? Two-nine, the Knicks was, they were going to that basket. They were getting to the chicken. They was going off that fat boy, man. Yes, yeah, they was. They was coming off that glass.

1:08:39Hey, hey, now. Facts. Them boys was attacking. Facts. Hey, Jalen Brunson was too much, bro. He had a hell of a run. I ain't gonna lie about that. That boy OG did too, though, twin. Yeah, but OG, OG. Yeah, not his body. OG showed me like 08, old sim type. I'm like, we keep that for another three, four years and then play on again. Hey, look, but hold up though. DC, think about it. Smooth, think about this. OG played great against us. Hell, he didn't even play in the Philly series. They were saving him. I think he got hurt, but I'm saying for the Knicks, I think everything went right for him in this postseason.

1:09:19They had a hell of a run. They was on fire, man. You know what it also showed? I ain't definitely seen a team that hit the playoffs that was that much on fire in my life, though. But you know what it showed, too, though? I hope these young players is watching and they really looking at game and looking at film. It shows what being a dog would achieve. If you think about it, San Antonio really was supposed to win. Okay? They lost themselves because now you got pressure. Free throws on the line. you missing important shots you up by 30 you still lose hey man you can't do nothing but blame yourself default just kept playing they kept hustling and that's what you gonna do you gonna outbeat everybody if you do that hey kudos to the nicks bro but i know boy they pissed the spurs off and i'm telling y 'all them boys coming back they gonna come back swinging you think they come back They gonna come back swinging DC.

1:10:17I'm saying because when you got - I've seen them win about 70 games, 70 plus games this year. I think - You say what? I think the Spurs gonna win about 70 plus games this year. They ain't gonna lie, bro. I think Darren Fox gonna be on something too. Basketball season probably got all the sports beat right now, man, I'm just saying. Hey, we cooking, we cooking. We cooking now. Yeah. We cooking. I don't know, bro. I don't know. I just. You bought a sofa you didn't have to assemble. A suit someone measured just for you.
