Jaden Burries led the Wildcats in scoring with 18 and 16 points respectively. Once again, Arizona's size and relentlessness, and I rebounded them, Utah State, by 27, 53-26, on its way to a Sweet 16 for the third straight season. Arizona Sweet 16 opponent, Ocho, the Rays are back. Oh, hey, hey, hey, Joe, what you going to do with them trees down there in Arizona? Hey, we sitting back resting up. Hey, we getting ready. I already told you, we finna make this run, man. This ain't nothing personal about Arizona.

I mean, listen, I ain't wish you no bad juju. I support the team, but I'm just saying scoring 100 And I mean, not having an answer for the bigs down there in Arizona. I mean, just saying Acuff is going to get it done. It's taking more than him. He's going to need some help. I think you'd be hating on the low. Even when you watch us play, I think you'd be kind of hating. I mean, Joe, I just said I support your team. I know what you're telling me right now, but I think when you be sitting at home watching the game, you be rooting against him.

4:06Shannon Sharpe:He be rooting for the other team, Joe? No, no, Joe. You know that man be rooting against him. You already know what's going on. Then he come over here and act like he down. Boy, I know what's going on. I'm with you, Joe. I already know what's going on. Man, you already know how Ocho is. Ocho go to somebody's house and find out who they for, all of a sudden he's like, yeah, come on. Now he for the other team automatically. Nah, I ain't like that. I ain't like that. You know, Joe, I wish y 'all boys well at Ocho. All right, all right. I want to see them boys go as far as possible. Listen, the better A-cup play in the tournament, the better his chances of, well, he probably going to be a lottery pick.

4:44He might sneak up there and go number two.

4:46Shannon Sharpe:Oh, he for sure going to be lottery. I think he's one player who can continue to increase his draft stock. His draft stock, yeah. Yeah. Yeah. In Arizona, man, they got some dogs. They got size. Yeah, they do. They do. They do. They had good guard play today. Uh-huh. Yeah. We got something for that, though. Y 'all got to keep Mark the Gladys. Yeah, they got to keep us off the glass. They got to keep us out of transition. We probably, we top two, three fast breaking team in the NCAA, what y 'all talking about? Hey man, they got to worry about us. Okay, okay. Hey Joe, I like the energy Joe. That's good energy, boy.

5:35That's good energy. Yeah.

5:39Shannon Sharpe:Purdue, the number two Boilermakers took down the hurricane 79-69, leave it to the seniors to bring home for Purdue. Man, they cheated. Mitchell Boyle had a game high 24 points. Trey Carverin had 19 as the W2C Boilermakers. Back to the Sweet 16 for the third straight season. Purdue's Sweet 16 opponent, the Longhorns. Hey, he done had them nine assists. I remember we betted that the Bulls was gonna have them nine assists. He had eight. I mean, he's supposed to get 10. Yeah. Yeah. Man, they were too much for the U, man. Yeah, yeah. the U fought man they fought hard they had a great season Purdue see teams like that they just too disciplined you know what I'm saying they ain't never gonna do nothing that's gonna beat themselves bro right 57 from the field 53 from the field 57 from the three you ain't beating nobody 95 % from the free throw line hey listen you ain't winning that game brother you let somebody to shoot them percentages on you.

6:43Shannon Sharpe:It's a wrap. Nope. I mean, they would have shot better than that if Braden Smith hadn't shot three for 12 because you got Kaufman Wren, he's 8 of 16. Clough was 3 of 4. Do you got 4 of 5, 6 of 7? I mean, you got one guy was 0 of 2 on my mayor. But if Braden Smith don't shoot 3 of 12, hell, they might shoot 60, 65 % for them. Yeah, yeah, I know. And he was 0-4 from the three. So he killed him. It's just a bad time to have a bad defensive game in the NCAA tournament. Because you can't get this back, bro. It's a wrap. Like, you let a team shoot like this. You let them be comfortable. You let them run they sets and get what they want, get to they spots.

7:30Shannon Sharpe:You can't beat no team like that, bro. Damn. The game that we flexed out of. The Alabama Crimson Tide beat the Texas Tech Red Raiders by the score of 90-65. Alabama's on the sweet 16 for the fourth consecutive time. Alabama went 19-42 from deep, the third most makes in any tournament game since 1987, when the three-point line was introduced. Latrell Wright's sale led the team with 24 points, while three other players scored a double figure. LeBaron Philyon Jr. had nine points. We're lost. It feels like we're going round in circles. I'm going to ask that man for directions. Hi there. We're trying to get to the state fairgrounds.

11:51Shannon Sharpe:12 assists, the second most assist by Alabama player in a tournament since 1984. Alabama's sweet 16 opponent, the number one seed, Michigan Wolverines. Oh, it's going to be 80. Well, Michigan got some trees down there too, boy. They do. Golly. It's going to start getting thick now. It's going to start getting thick now. We're going to get some real, real good games now. Alabama been tough. Texas Tech, also, they lost their center, who was their leading scorer and leading rebounder. He tore his ACL kind of late in the season. So it was going to be hard for them to, you know, stay afloat and continue to keep advancing.

12:34Shannon Sharpe:They do got a great guard in little Christian Anderson. He can play. He didn't have such a great game tonight. But for the most part, he's been holding it down throughout the season. But they just ran into a gritty Alabama team, bro, who is out of player. I don't think he's their leading scorer, but I think he's one. I think he averaged 20 a game.

12:59Shannon Sharpe:It's a little guard. You know, he got into a little trouble. Oh, yeah, yeah. The one that got arrested, had that scunion on him. Had like two and a half pounds of scunion on him. Had that scum. Yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Scunion. Ooh-wee. Yeah, he didn't have a discussion. Yeah, there you go. Oh, okay, okay, okay. Yeah, so he got him out of there. He couldn't play, he probably done. Yeah. Damn. He might be playing with a team with strikes on.

13:37Shannon Sharpe:Boy. I don't know what the Bleacher Report. Bleacher Report, top 15 purest scores in NBA history. Steph Curry was one. Kevin Durant was two. Michael Jordan was three. Joel Embiid is four. LeBron, Shea, Girvin, Doncic, Jokic, Colby, Giannis, Kyrie, O 'Neal, Mitchell. Well, Mellowin. Mellowin. Hey, and Joe. This might be the worst list somebody's ever, ever put together. Okay, okay, okay. I'm going to say, hey, Joe, I didn't play in the NBA, Joe. I didn't play in the NBA. Listen, I'm not a huge NBA watcher. Of course, I know the game. I understand the game a little bit. But the list is garbage because he done write it off about seven, six, seven, eight names, and Kobe's name wasn't mentioned in that goddamn top five.

14:29So just take that list, ball it up, and throw it away. I'm just – It's all right. Now, Steph Curry, rightfully so. Rightfully so. He's number one. Who going to argue that? You can't argue that. Now, outside of that, Kobe got to be somewhere. Got to be in the top five, Joe. I know I'm not tripping. No, no, no, no.

14:45Shannon Sharpe:You ain't tripping, OJ. I don't know who be doing these analytics or whatever it is they do, who be making these predictions. But you can't have Melo. If you ain't got Melo in there, that man wasn't nothing but a pure score. You know what I'm saying? Yes, sir. He top 10. I think he top 10 in the NBA history in scoring. So, man, come on, bro. What are they coming up? What are they coming up with this? Where do you get this from? You know what I think they do? I know I think they do, Joe, especially on Twitter when they create these. They create these for engagement. I think they create them for engagement to get people talking, to get people going.

15:22Because I think you get paid for your impressions or something like that. I think, if I'm not mistaken. Is that what it is? I don't know. Yeah, I think so. I think so. Because sometimes people, you know, you get your check from Twitter now.

15:34Shannon Sharpe:Oh, okay. For your engagement and your impressions or something like that. I'm not sure how it works. I think I need to sign up for that. I sure make me look. I thought you would have had it. Nah, I got to sign up for it. I don't like filling all that stuff out, Joe. It's too much work. Yeah, too much work. I mean, you know, it could be nice little pocket change. You know, a little gas money. A little McDonald's money. So you on my own social platforms. Oh, yeah. Instagrams. I got Twitter. And I got... How you got to listen you ain't got James Harden on it? Yeah. Oh, I want to say that. Did you say D-Wade, Joe?

16:16You said D-Wade?

16:17Shannon Sharpe:Nah. Look, it's doing what it was supposed to do, which is get us, get people talking about it. Because they know if you ain't got Jordan and you ain't got James Harden, James Harden averaged 36, averaged 34. James Harden is about to hit 30 ,000 points.

16:42Shannon Sharpe:purest scores yeah james harden's got to be there there was a time there was like a three there was like a five-year period people were actually questioning is james harden the better score than michael jordan is james harden the better score than kobe and you ain't even got the man on the list yeah i hear what i told joe i get it i get it i get it but for james hard not to be up there. Man, stop. You heard what I told Unc Joe? I mean, what I told Joe Unc? I say they create these lists like this. And there's another one. We're probably not going to talk about it. There's a football list. I'm not sure if you saw it today.

17:21That talked about the best safeties they ever played this game. Did you see that one?

17:26Shannon Sharpe:What do they got up there? They got Ed Reed first. They got Ronnie Lott second. Okay. Troy third? Troy was number eight. Huh? Troy was number eight. Hey, Troy was number eight. They got Steve Atwater and they got your boy Steve in there. I'm talking about real high. But I've looked at the list. I'm like, come on now. Brian Dawkins was up there too. I'm like, come on. What are we doing? And I think they create these lists for engagement because they get paid for the impressions on how many people... It's working because that's a bull job. Oh yeah, it's working big time. Hold on. You ain't got Jerry West.

18:03Shannon Sharpe:You ain't got Elgin Baylor. You ain't got Wilt Chamberlain. So you ain't got – I'm just trying to figure out. So what was the criteria that you used to determine scores? They just wanted to put it out, man. They want us to talk about it. Ain't no way in hell. Because ain't no way. You got a list with scores, and James Harden ain't a top five score. Right. Absolutely right. Come on, man. Come on, man. You average in the mid-30s, you got to be way up there. because ain't a whole lot of look especially in the modern basketball like you know way way back then when they had like 8 12 teams yeah one thing but once you got what anytime you average at least 35 since the merger and i think the merger 76 77 come on now yeah it's ridiculous oh lord have mercy

19:00Shannon Sharpe:Oh my goodness. That's what I'm saying. I'm saying, hey, I'm saying Melo top 10 score in NBA. Yeah, Melo wasn't knocked by the bucket. Is it? Tracy McGrady was a score. Oh, they ain't have him on there? Hell no. They had 62 points in the game.

19:22Shannon Sharpe:Yo, what's the most you scored in the game, Joe? I think like 44, Ocho. I wasn't putting up no 50, 60. I was just consistent. I had a year-wide average about 25, 26. I was just consistent. You know what I mean? I was going to give you what I was going to give you. Yes, sir. I hope you find that consistency when you see me. You say you what, man? I hope you had that consistency when I see you. Man, why that man always want me to act out of character? I'm trying to be cool with the man, you know what I'm saying? Hey, Joe, hey, Joe, I don't want to be cool with them all. I want to play ball with Joe.

20:07Okay, we got the fade pinning, you know what I'm saying? Oh, it's not pinning. It went through, it went through. It went through? Oh, it's going to be hard, Joe. Hey, hey, hey, hey, can you talk about pinning? I don't know. Hey, that transaction, it ain't, it's going through. As far as scoring, we ain't going to put Allen Iverson on.

20:28Shannon Sharpe:Oh, man. Oh, that's, hey, that's a good one. That's a good one. Man, come on, I'm getting mad.

20:39Shannon Sharpe:It's like my grandma used to say, the more I talk, the more I talk, the better I got. That man, average. Because it's a fool job. Mellow. No mellow. No hard. No AI. man that man got a career average about 28. yeah come on man hey hey um doesn't it doesn't it get difficult too when you talk about some of the better scores of all time when there's so many of them how do you know who to put in your top 10. Luca averaging 28 points a game right now if Luca would have the third high scoring average in NBA history behind Jordan and uh Will and you got him down at eight.

Read the full transcript

21:23Shannon Sharpe:The mere fact that you don't got Harden, you don't have Iverson, you don't even have them on the list along with Drake McGrady. Yeah, yeah. Because Iverson was, hey, boy, listen, them early 2000s, them late 90s, yeah, he's been running the league. What?

21:46Shannon Sharpe:man come on now let me see the purest scores Jordan, Colby Harden, Iverson they just buckets D-Wade no? yeah D-Wade was a bucket he led the league in scoring one year he led the league in scoring one year but you look at KD, Jordan, Harden. You're talking about guys in the consistent high 20s, 30s. You knew what they were doing. I mean, Jordan came in as a rookie dropping 28. You ain't going to see that ish no more. You don't think so? Not no rookie coming to drop 28 a game. Jordan has 28 as a rookie. You don't think? Hey, Joe, they got to have that green light to be able to shoot that wheel, huh?

22:40Shannon Sharpe:I think at some point, at some point, I don't know if it's going to be this year, but I think at some point we're going to get somebody who's going to come along as a rookie. And I'm talking about he's going to be out there handing them out. You hear me? He's going to be handing them out. Think about it. Kevin Durant averaged a little bit 20. Jordan, LeBron averaged 20. Mello averaged 20. I think 21. Yeah, come on. This man averaged 28 a game. As a rookie. Hey. I think he lost the scoring title one year. He might have lost the scoring title. He might have lost it to Bird Dog, Bernard King, I think.

23:18Shannon Sharpe:At 30-something points. Your mindset got to be different, bro. Yeah, man. Man, everybody know Jordan was a walking bucket. The man averaged 37, averaged 35, 32, 33. The man won seven straight scoring titles. Sit it down for a year and a half and come back and get three more.

24:35Shannon Sharpe:Yeah, we ain't gonna never get MJ back in basketball the way he got them cars running around that track.

24:44Shannon Sharpe:Oh yeah. And he really don't show up to NBA either. He don't. The last thing I've seen, Mike go more to NC Carolina games than he go to the NBA games. The last thing I saw Mike show up for, the 75th anniversary. Yeah. You seen him in San Diego? No, I think he do be having stuff, but I think it'd be so private, invite only. Like, he ain't. Yes, yes. Because he normally put on something at the Ocho game. Man, he should do that every year. That was the best part at Ocho. Everybody was trying to get him out. You went to that one we had in LA back in 20, what year was that? 20, 19, 2018, 2019? 20. He was in Bel Air.

A straight bucket. Get to him. That's what they called him because he gave the Celtics hell. So that's what they dubbed him the Boston Strangler. World be free. Yeah. He changed his name to World. His name was Lloyd. He changed his name to World because he could do it anywhere. Right. He said, I can make it anywhere in the world. Man, I just think I said, man. Man, ain't nobody. Hey, I don't think anybody that – because I saw a little bit of this and I looked.

27:03They did it on personal engagement. Because if they did it the right way, it wouldn't be nothing to talk about.

27:11Shannon Sharpe:But, look, I understand. And I think the thing sometimes, don't you, you kind of want to get engagements. And the more outlandish or ridiculous something is, the more engagements that you want to get. But, damn, you can't make it so egregious.

But I'm saying back in the day when you just, you know what I'm saying? Nah, Joe, because I don't drink, Joe. So what I'm doing in there? What am I doing in that environment? I ain't getting no alcohol. I'm not standing around. Hey, boy, hey, me and the fella. Hey, yeah, you know, you already got what you got, so. Oh, yeah, yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah. You ain't fishing no more. Nah, but I'm saying when he was younger though, when he was out hunting, you know, when he's out hunting.

55:26Shannon Sharpe:Oh, yeah. Nah, Joe, I can't do it. It's just the thought of the prices. You go to the restaurant? Yeah. If you don't let them take that menu, you don't want to see something else. You know what? Let me get the... You know what I'm saying, Joe? I don't know what to play. Hey, Joe, let me ask a matter of fact. What you say? Come on that dinner salad? Yeah. Yeah, let me get that. Yeah. Why you... Hey, remember the show? Uncle, you remember? Remember Iron Matthew? Yeah, I do. Yeah. Yeah.

Man, I don't know, it's been about maybe four, five years. I still, I still ain't go. Because it's just not in me. The club life and, you know, being in there, I just, I don't know, it's weird. It is weird. I mean, to be from Miami and not really partaking what people from Miami actually do is beyond me. We got to go to live.

Okay. I need to watch a call. I'm saying, Ocho, we need to go on to what you call him. We need to go to a live. I'm gonna come down there. I think I got some business coming down. I think I'm coming down there in about three weeks, two, three weeks.
