26:18Shannon Sharpe:Hi, guys. Draymond Green took a shot at Charles Barkley, and that didn't go over well on the inside of the day. Dray said the gold is just not look like you in a Houston Rockets uniform. Damn. First is blaming Steve Kerr, then Austin Rivers, now disrespecting Chuck on television. What's going on with Draymond? I don't think. See, people just see Chuck inside the NBA. Right. They don't realize how great he was. They don't. Wait, hold on. You don't think Draymond Green understands how good Chuck was, even though he didn't win the ring? Hell, even I know how good goddamn Barkley was. Ernie Ernie said he took stuck up for Chuck telling Draymond he has 43 games with more turnovers than field goal in the playoffs he's tied with Kendrick Perkins for the most since 2003 who Draymond is yeah I think because hey look Barkley was a hell of a player and what he said was he didn't want yeah he didn't want to look like how Barkley looked in Houston but hell Barkley made the offside team I think his first year in Houston Yeah, look at – pull up Barkley's numbers in Houston.

27:27Shannon Sharpe:People think Barkley – yeah, he wasn't what he was in Philly. He wasn't what he was in Phoenix. In Phoenix, yeah. But he was still a hell of a player. And it's hard to – I don't like the comparison because Barkley is more of a – has an offensive presence as opposed to Draymond, so the comparison isn't even there. It makes no sense to even compare the two. But when you look at it, Uncle Ocho, So, Draymond done won four rings, and Barkley ain't never won no rings. But Draymond ain't a better basketball player than Charles Barkley. I agree. And that first year, y 'all know what Charles Barkley averaged?

28:02Shannon Sharpe:19 points, 13 and a half rebounds. Can I interest you in that?

28:08Shannon Sharpe:13 rebounds is crazy. At 6 '4".

28:15Shannon Sharpe:And 5 '6". Like I said, people don't realize. Let me tell you what happened. And I think Draymond, everything that he's been able to do. But what people have done, they've allowed rings to be the end-all, be-all. And you're taking guys with rings and say, well, because he has rings, he's better than X. No. No, sir. No, no, no, no, no. Yeah. Barkley would like that, boy. No, sir. I mean, like I said, people just – look, I know Barkley. I know Chuck. And people take their shots at him. But go look at his numbers for a career. Bad boy. Name another guy. No, Barkley was 6 '4".

29:08Shannon Sharpe:How many years he played? Barkley played 16 years. How about this for a career? 22 points and 12 rebounds. For a career. We ain't talking about no one season.

29:24Shannon Sharpe:He was bad. Isn't that pretty good, Chad? 22 and 12? Yeah, yeah. I can speak for Chad. I can tell you that. I'm serious, man, because I remember, I remember, I remember arguably when he was the best player in the league. What was that? 93 when they played the Bulls in the finals? Yes. Man, if y 'all don't do nothing else, Chad, if y 'all don't do nothing else, go to YouTube and look up Phoenix Suns versus the Bulls in 93, bro. Now, MJ was a bad boy, you know. Yes. But I think Barkley. Did Barkley win MVP that year? Yes, he did. He beat Jordan. Bro. The man was unreal out there. The way I think not only did he have game, but it was his attitude and his approach.

30:09Like, he knew couldn't nobody mess with him,

30:13Shannon Sharpe:and that's how he went out and played.

30:17Shannon Sharpe:Like I said, man, look, what we've done, there are guys that doesn't have rings, and then we're taking guys that have rings and say, well, they better. No, they're not. No, sir. No, you're not. We got to stop this. At that point, it's about understanding the game in general, outside of rings, understanding players' skill sets, what they meant during the era that they played in, how good they were. But hey, who he's having to guard. Think about who he's having to guard at 6 '4". He guarding guys 6 '9", 6 '10", at 6 '4". Yeah. And holding his own. Yeah. I think in Draymond's defense though, Uncle Ocho, y 'all know Barkley, he started it.

31:05Shannon Sharpe:You know, he - Of course. Always. Always. He threw a slight at Draymond. He told him, he said, look, it's over for y 'all. Y 'all haven't got old. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. He just kept it. Yes. Yes. Yeah. And you know, hey. They have. Joe, they have gotten old. They have.

31:24He not.

31:25Shannon Sharpe:Joe, they talking about basketball refs talking about he's 6 '6". Charles Barkley ain't no 6 '6". Charles Barkley's 6 '4". Yeah, about 6 '4", 6 '5". Maybe. He not even that now if he done had that hip replaced and shrunk and you get older, you know he's straight. Yeah. But, man. Y 'all gotta see. And that's why we get up and sit there with Zion. Because Zion is a more explosive Charles Barkley. Yeah. Man, we were just talking about this dude today, bro. Zion. How the talent that he has. And that's what we were talking about earlier in the show. You mix that talent with that damn hard work? Yes.

32:05Shannon Sharpe:Man, that man, he already can't be guarded, bro. Yeah. He could be a top. He could easily. I'm saying if his mind was made up, he could easily be a top five player in this league today. Okay, Ocho. I'm talking about Zion. Easy. Can't nobody guard him. But I think the thing is, is that back then, those guys listened. He said Moses Malone told him. He said, Charles, you got two things wrong with you. You fat and you lazy. He said, Mo, what I need to do? He say, we're going to lose 10 pounds. Hey, we ain't going to lose it all at once.

32:48As a young guy, bro, coming into a professional sport,

32:51Shannon Sharpe:that's what you need. You need a veteran guy who's going to keep it 100 with you. One stop. Yeah, and ain't going to let you slide with that BS, especially when they see how talented you are. Yeah. And they like, look, bro, if you drop 10, 15, 20 pounds, you're going to be a bad mofo. Yeah. I just need you to lock in. And when you got guys like that, bro, That'll take your career to another level. He said he got him down. He said he got him down. He was like 290. He said he got to 280. He said he felt okay. 270 felt good. 260. He said once he got to 250, he just started cutting everybody ass. Man.

33:30Shannon Sharpe:He wasn't playing. He wasn't. Man, Charles Barkley was explosive. I'm talking about dunking on everybody. Yeah. Ain't no way that man's supposed to be able to do a jump like that. And Zion more explosive than that. Now, he can't shoot like Chuck because Chuck can shoot. Chuck can shoot. But as far as being explosive, having a better handle, he got all that better than Chuck. And my problem with Zion, Joe, at that size, he got to get more than five, six rebounds a game. He got to be a double-double. He got to be a double-double. Too talented, too athletic, too gifted. service opens doors and at american military university it can open doors for the whole family if you have a loved one who served in the military you may qualify for reduced tuition amu offers flexible online programs designed to fit your schedule so you can keep moving forward wherever life takes you learn more at amu.apus.edu slash military open doors to the future for you and your family with the help of American Military University.

37:40Shannon Sharpe:Check this out. 2026 GM survey results are out. If you were starting a franchise today and you can sign any player in the WNBA, who would it be? In 2025, it was Caitlin Clark got 50%. Asia Wilson got 33%. In 2026, Paige Beckers get 33%. Asia and Caitlin tie for 20%. And Dominique, I think this is the French woman, at 13%. I'm going to say this, Joe. I followed the WNBA since it came out in 1996. Me too. I'm not taking a woman over Asia. Asia, no sub. If you say, okay, we're scoring, Maya Moore can score like Asia. Yeah. There might have been women that can score like Asia. Cheryl Swoops, Cynthia Cooper.

38:29Shannon Sharpe:Yeah. Lauren Jackson. Yeah. Okay. Rebound. Well, could she rebound like Sylvia Fowles? Could she rebound like Leslie? Yes. Yeah. Could she play defense? there's not been a woman in the WNBA that has the total package what Asia Wilson has she's led the league in scoring she's led the league in rebounding she's a three time defensive player of the year she's a three time champion a two time finals MVP no disrespect and respectfully Cheryl Swoops, Cynthia Cooper Lauren Jackson, Lisa Leslie Simone Augustus, Diana Taurasi Maya Moore, all of them watch the ball play. Yeah. Even in college. I'm taking Asia Wilson.

39:15Shannon Sharpe:Me too. Hey, because when you look at it, Uncle Ocho, the WNBA, it's not like the NBA to where, you know, the NBA is perimeter oriented. You know, the WNBA, if you got you a girl down there who can get something done like Asia, you play inside out, bro. Yes. You know what I mean? I mean, yeah, there's some girls in WNBA who can score. But for the most part, if you got an Asia, that's who you starting your offense with. Hell, she been impeccable. I agree with you. I agree with you. I don't know how she tied for second on this. I'm definitely starting my damn team with Asia. Now, look, if you're trying to sell tickets, you want endorsements, okay.

39:53But if you're trying to win, I ain't taking nobody over Asia.

39:56Shannon Sharpe:No. You crazy? Not right now. Like I said, I saw them all play. I'm old enough in college. Breonna Stewart, I ain't taking nobody over Asia. No. Hell, and she should be favored to win the MVP again. Yeah. And even though she should have won the back-to-back MVP's defensive player of the year, Nafisha Carl, you can feed got her. Yeah. Scoring. She can score. She can rebound. She can defend. She can pass. She can do everything. She can do everything. Paige Beckers is unbelievable. She is. I love y 'all. Hey, I love Kaitlyn Clark. And like I said, Maya Moore. Maya Ward went to Collins Hills in Georgia.

40:38Yeah.

40:39Shannon Sharpe:Knew her career. Lisa Leslie and Coop. Coop was on those teams, those USC teams with the – Sheryl. Sheryl. No, no, no, no, no. Yeah, with Sheryl Miller and McGee. Yeah. Pam and Paula McGee. Yeah. She was on that team. Yeah. They won back-to-back 84. And then Clarissa Davis, that great Texas team. Yeah. Went 36-0 in 1986, beat them. Yeah. So I go wave at all of them. Like I said, Tina Tom, all of them. I debate anybody on that. Yeah, I agree. Candice Parker. I'm taking – Candice is the only one to come in and win rookie of the year and MVP. She was MVP and rookie of the year in the same season.

41:27Shannon Sharpe:And she's been a defensive player of the year. And she – Yeah. This girl here is unbelievable. She is, bro. And like I said, I haven't seen the other – I saw Taurasi play. But to watch her play – and man, and they got – and they got Chelsea Gray, they got the point guard, and they got Jackie Young. They loaded again. They got a hell of a team. They loaded again. They got a hell of a team. I'm going to go see them play too. I might go see them open at night. Drop the ball and get the rings. When is that? Hold on, they get ready to play. They play Saturday. damn that's open tonight yeah I think they play open tonight don't they play Saturday open tonight

42:28Shannon Sharpe:Aces play Saturday home right damn I do better play. I'm going to a game though. I'm going to a game. I'm gonna see you. Huh? Overnight starts tomorrow. Yeah. And look, these, these, Hey, and I'm so glad these girls are making, they making big time money now. Hey, he's going to be making 1.5. These girls, the money is going to be flowing. Now they're not going to have to go overseas. They can stay right here, make a good living. They still have the unrivaled league. They can make it even a little bit more money. Man, Asia Wilson is as good a WNBA player as I've seen. Yeah. Hey, they trending in the right direction, WNBA is.

43:06Shannon Sharpe:It's going to continue to grow. Hey, look. I told y 'all, man, I got a 12-year-old. I told her here, by the time she 18, another six years, girl, look. Them girls going to be making some real money. Oh, yeah. Which player forces the opposing coaches to make the most adjustments? In 2025, it was Asia Wilson at 33%, Kaitlyn Clark and Breonna Stewart for 22. And this year coming up, Asia Wilson got 13. Alyssa Thompson, Phoenix. Who will win the key of WNBA MVP? Feed, Nafisha Collier with 67%. Asia Wilson, 25. Kaitlyn Clark, 20, 26. Asia, 60%. Breonna Stewart, 27%. Now, you know she would have done it to be five.

43:53Shannon Sharpe:Hey, Nafisha Collier, she coming off an injury, ain't she? Yes. Ankle. I think she messed up her ankle. Yeah. Yeah, she can play, though. She can play, but... Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah. I know. She got some game, but Asia, I mean... It's different. Which team will win the WNBA Finals in 2025? It was Minnesota going into New York, Indiana, and Las Vegas. and then in 2026, who is it going to be? Las Vegas, 40%. New York, 33%. Atlanta's been getting a lot of love with Alicia Gray and now they got Angel Reese and they got Ryan Howard. So, yeah. But man, Angel, like I said, man, she was, ooh.

44:42Shannon Sharpe:Now, I used to love the comment. The comment, but the comment they had Cheryl too because when they first got there, Cheryl was pregnant. Cheryl didn't come right away. Yeah. So it was Coop, it was Tina Thompson, and one lady, because they won four straight titles. They won the first four. And I think, hell, I think Coop might have been the MVP, might have been the final MVP, all of them. And I think she was the first MVP, I think, two times. But boy, and she, I mean, you got to think about it. she was in her 30s. Yeah. So just imagine if they'd have had when she was like fresh out of college.

45:28Shannon Sharpe:Yeah. But this lefty with Chelsea, Jackie Young, and Asia. Too much. She got it, fella. Man. Five MVPs? If she was this, it should be a fifth one? And what, did she just turn 30? Mm. Asia. Hey, hey, hey. And you see she just came out with that A1. Yeah. It's nice, too. She's 29. We should be 30. August, yeah. She'd be 30 in August. What's the A1? Joe, her shoe?

Nobody in basketball thought he would end up there. Right. Kyrie, great situation with LeBron. He wants out.

55:08Shannon Sharpe:I want to do my own thing. I don't want to do what y 'all want me to do. KD, I don't want to go where y 'all want me to go. I want to go where I want to go. Right. Right. But I could – can you imagine the guard with those two guys? That would have been nasty. Oh, my God. Man, they tore it down.

55:33Uh-huh.

55:34Shannon Sharpe:That was it. Oh, Joe, we ain't talking about it. You know OG looking like he got a strained hamstring. OG, dude? Well, y 'all know what that mean. I'm straining hamstrings, bro. I don't give a damn how much tape you put on it. It ain't. Hey, you got to sit down with that. Didn't he hurt his hamstring last year late? Didn't they play? Who did they? They played Indiana. I think he hurt his hamstring last year. He may have did. He may have did. Yeah. But didn't he hurt his hamstring last year against Indy? Let me see. Chad, didn't he hurt his hamstring against Indy last year? Hey, because if he out, Uncle Ocho, I mean, because he's been so consistent this whole postseason, that's going to hurt the Knicks, bro.

56:32Shannon Sharpe:That's going to hurt them.

56:38Shannon Sharpe:Was it two years ago? Okay. Yeah. Okay. I thought so.

56:48Okay.

56:50Shannon Sharpe:J-Dub Akron, Iso, you must choose one. Fade put on Ocho, Tyson versus Burbank, you knock him silly and he can't stand falling. Or Drago beat down where you got to get Ash through the damn towel. Hold on. What was the first one again? You got to put the fade on Ocho. So you're going to be Tyson versus Burbitt. You knock him silly and he keeps standing, but he falling. Drago beat down with Up. Got to hear Ash throwing the towel. What I'm going to do to Ocho? Ain't neither one. You want to do what Drago was doing to Rocky when he told him to throw in the towel? Or would Tyson hit Trevor Burbitt? Yeah, hey, hey.

57:36Shannon Sharpe:Tyson said he wanted to make him pay because that was the last man to beat Ali. Yeah, that's how I am. That's how he said you wanted to make him pay. That's how I am. I'm going to make his ass pay for all this shit talking he's doing. And I know Chad want to see it. Chad, I got y 'all. It's going to be a show. You hear me? That's all it's going to be. Let me tell you something. Hey, he ain't going to be able to get through this defense, Unc. I'm going to sit there right in your face where I can reach out and touch you, like touch your nose, and I'm going to let you throw every punch. I'm blocking everything.

58:07You hear me, Joe? I'm blocking it. I ain't even gonna move. I'm gonna just sit there nice and calm and relax. I'm gonna parry everything you throw.

58:15Shannon Sharpe:Hey, hey, you ever seen people do this? You ever seen people do this? You're too small? And his ass too damn little. It ain't about size at that point. Joe, when we fighting, Joe. I'll be fighting or we wrestling. Which one we doing? It don't matter here. You gonna lose in both? No, no, no, no, Joe. Anything coming from the shoulders, boy, you dead in the water. Boy, you in no man's land with me, man. Stop playing. Ocho, for you to even get a leak in, bro, you got to take two of these, two, three of these just to even get in there. Yo, I'm slipping everything you throw. Slipping what? I'm slipping everything you throw, Joe.

58:51I'm coming in there. I'm coming in there sliding, moving, Joe, and sticking, Joe. Huh? I'm going to talk to you while I'm dodging punches. And I know they write out bad, too.

59:02Shannon Sharpe:Well, I'm going to do a number on that moment. don't worry about that right now what's up Ocho Aiso not much to say but Dean Wade is entirely too sorry on defense and down to scores in the fourth and Donovan doesn't touch the ball Nixon mixing granny needs assistance Pistons in four hell they out of there you ain't gonna get one game well they better get this game Game three? I give them one. I give them one. They don't get game three. It's a wrap, bro. I give them one. I give them one. Gold Standard says, Unk thinks LeBron is the gold. Laugh my ass off. Michael Jordan is the growth. Bro, we differ.

59:47Shannon Sharpe:We disagree. The only ID, Iso pay that man, Ocho, you know how it goes. You can't pay up. You got to put it on the floor. Pistons and four. Put it on the floor. I ain't paying nothing. Hey, hey. Matter of fact, I'm glad you just reminded me, huh? Yeah, he owe you five, he owe you seven. I forgot he owed me that 500, what? He owe you 700, cause you had two games too. Hey, hey, put it in your notes as a reminder. I don't give a damn what you do. Hey, listen, listen. All you doing is making it work for yourself, man. Hey, first you were gonna be six feet, now you're gonna be 12, fucking with it. Okay, all right.

1:00:24I wanna see this, I wanna see it. I wanna see it, yeah. All right, don't worry about it, bro.

1:00:30Shannon Sharpe:OKC, smack them boys up. Smack them boys. Thunder up. Yeah, man, it ain't looking good. We ain't looking good. We're going to have to play a perfect ball game, and still, OKC going to need to be off for the Lakers to get a game, guys. We're going to get a game. We're going to get a game. What's up, Doc? Here on Ocho Iso. Braun can't go out like this. We need magic or something running 20 points off turnovers is embarrassing. It is. Yeah, them turnovers going to kill you. already a tough assignment to beat them, Joey. You turning the ball over? That's when they thrive, though. That's what their defense is built to do.

1:01:08Shannon Sharpe:It's built to make you turn that damn ball over. Yeah. Well, they doing it. Man. No, SGA Reeves came to play. Shea, you okay? Thunder and four. No. You all right. Y 'all still got two games at home. You good. You good. I'm going to see that Monday game. Game four? Mm-hmm. I hope it ain't no elimination. Don't do it. Just save your money. I'm leaving in the third quarter because we got the show, so I got to get back. Nah, just save your money, though. Save your money, man. I'm going to eat me some nachos. I'm going to eat me some chicken. I'm going to get my money's worth. But what if the game really good, though?

1:01:47Shannon Sharpe:I'm leaving at third. I got to get a job to do. Hey, save your money, man. Don't do it to yourself, man. Nah. As a matter of fact, Ocho, I need that. You said case of emergency. I need that$5 ,900. Well, listen, if I'm going to see that$5 ,900, and you're going to spend that$5 ,900 to go out so they can lose, I mean, that's a whole bunch. Why this man worried about what I'm going to do with the money? And what I'm saying, how the man started pressing me by$700, and the man owed$5 ,900, God damn. Hey, Joe, stay in the child's place, Joe. Damn that, old Joe. Damn that. When grown folks talking, stay in the child's place.

1:02:27God damn that.

1:02:28Shannon Sharpe:That's why, hey, I'm keeping my money in my pocket. That's okay. Hey, I want you to keep it in your pocket, right? And you're going to be Dragonfly Jones, and I'm going to be the student. I'm going to take it right out your pocket. Don't worry about it.

1:02:44Shannon Sharpe:I've never been the type to say this, but the ref would try to send LeBron a message. This is their league. They kill the momentum every time. I mean, LeBron ain't getting no foul. I mean, that foul by Jalen Williams, and then they come down the other end, and they get a call to shake. I can understand why it's frustrating. Yeah, yeah. Ooh. Big Mike. Ocho. Joe. Let's see. You got start, bench, cut. You got a Rolex. You got AP. You got Richard Mille. Start, bench, cut. I'm starting Rolex no matter what. You starting a rollie? Absolutely. Timeless. Absolutely. Iconic. Okay. Okay. you so you're starting to roll it i'm gonna get the bench

Nasty. You got that new Bubba Watson? Hell no. Who the hell? if I can't, hell no. The hell, the hell you say. Maybe look that Bubba Watson up. That shit by 500 ,000, I think. Hey, hey, hey, put that protect in there. Hell no. Man, please. Man, you see that one, that new protect that Corey Gamble got, Chris Jenner, boyfriend? It was five million, wasn't it? Yeah. That yo got everything. Hey, he got A. I don't know. There's only one person that's, there's only, Jay-Z?

1:04:55Shannon Sharpe:Him and Jay-Z? The only person, I know two people, they got a watch collection. Mark Wahlberg? Yeah. Jay-Z? Yeah. I know a couple. Mark Wahlberg got one of the most impressive. Kevin Hart? Holt got a very impressive one. Kevin Hart too. Khaled got an impressive one. Braun got a nice one too, huh? Oh, yeah, yeah, Braun got one, yeah. Slash Stallone, Sylvester. But Patek took him out because he sold one of his. They put it in the auction and he sold it. So they took him off the list. Damn. Don't forget, you got a Kevin Hart got a nasty watch. Oh, yeah, Kevin's an AP guy. Kev got a lot of APs. What's he call them, guy?

1:05:38Shannon Sharpe:I mean, Mark Wahlberg, he got APs, Paddock, Rollins.

1:05:46Shannon Sharpe:They can, hey, because they work, they work, they'll never devalue. No, no, no, no, no, no, no. You want, once you get an AD, once you get in good with an AD, because, and plus, all those guys get off catalog. Because there's some, some models, they don't even put, only their VIP clients will get access to. Yeah. And so Wahlberg and Hove and those guys, they're going to get access to those models. But man. Hey, well, we need to be part of that. uh ap rolex but don't you man see the thing is i didn't understand that early on so i just bought like you know i didn't really go to an ad authorized dealer right you know somebody like hey man i got this a i would just buy it i didn't know yeah uh it's not like louis vuitton like if you buy louis vuitton no matter where you bought it i'm in the system started i think i bought my first piece at 91 yeah piece of luggage and you know more luggage got my sister piece of luggage and duffel bags and garment bags and big time suitcases and so over the years I got a pretty good relationship with Louis Vuitton but I don't have that type of relationship with none of the dealers.

1:07:00Shannon Sharpe:I mean I would like to get a Richard Mille or a Vacheron Constantine. I mean hey that's what we got the show for. We have a platform. We can voice what we want and my grandma always said the tongue is powerful. Speak it into existence. We got to speak it into existence. Well, I'd like to have a better – I'd like to have a relationship with Patek, AP, Vacheron, F.P. Jordan, Richard Mill. Anything else we leave out on show? Roll it. That's about it. That's about it. I want a yacht. I want a super yacht, mega yacht. Oh, no, no. So any companies out there want to work with your boy? Huh? Boat. You know what a boat stand for?

1:07:44Shannon Sharpe:bust out another thousand because that's a money pit. That is a money pit. Yeah, yeah. It is. Greg, we go grand. McCann might be the biggest deal I can ever remember. Thanks, Sixers. McCain. McCain. But the thing is, Joe, I mean, so you want to give – would you take McCain over Maxley? No, I think – And BJ Edgecombe. It's the role that he's playing in now with OKC. people want them to play their role in Philly. Coming off the bench, being that spark plug, you just got too many young guys, bro. They weren't going to do that. And I like that. Don't stash the man. Let the man go somewhere he can play.

1:08:28Shannon Sharpe:And then guess what? He played well there and he can build up his thing and go get a starting role and make some money. There you go. This game wasn't rigged. Don't call it rigged when L.A. was clearly getting their behinds busted by OKC. Yeah, they lost. but I think you think too some of those calls were tiki-tac calls. It might not have impacted the game.

1:08:53Shannon Sharpe:Daniel Wells, people kill me saying pro sports are all rigged. Y 'all really think these guys work as hard as they do to let someone tell them to miss a shot or drop a pass? Nah. What said you got, Ojo? A-Un. That an AP? Or Rich Armill? I got an AP. I said AP. Oh, you just got an AP? You got, ooh. That mug nasty. Okay. Yeah. Man, I had one man, when my house got broken into, I had one, they only made 75 of them. Oh man, don't tell me, don't tell me, don't tell me. Don't tell me. And you still ain't get it back? I didn't get it back. I ain't got none of it back. And the problem, the thing was, some of the watches, I mean, since I was probably my fourth year in the league.

1:09:45Shannon Sharpe:Yeah. So that's when, you know, hey, I ain't got the money. I ain't had the money like I had. Yeah. And so it meant something because I got to save up. I'm like, man, I want that. I want this day-day or I want this X, Y, and Z. Right, right. Yeah. One day. Who's winning a dance battle? Michael Jackson or Chris Brown? Chris Brown stole all Mike moves. And, but still, and still two completely type of dancers though, stylistically, two completely different type of dancers. I mean, I, obviously I'm a dancer, so just the comparison is it's, I understand it, but Chris Brown and the way Michael Jackson dances are completely, completely different.

1:10:30Shannon Sharpe:Because Chris can do all Mike's moves. Mike ain't doing that jumping his stuff into what Chris Brown Don't do it now, man. He's not. But ain't nobody ever that walked this earth going to be big as that guy. No. No, son. It's impossible. Most, uh, no. OKC got out of the first round picks on the squad. They stack top to bottom. They do. They've done a great job. Sam Preston's done an unbelievable job. And he might go down because you look at from Kevin Garnett to Westbrook to James Harden to making the trade for Shea and all the J-Dub and the Chet and the this and that. He going to be one of the best.

1:11:18Shannon Sharpe:Yes, sir. He one of the best. He is, bro. From Africa, the question is, Keanu Reeves, do you think the Lakers need Ocho to save these series?

1:11:34Shannon Sharpe:I don't know if Ojo can help him. Yeah, no. Refs cheated us tonight. Refs needs to be investigated. I don't know. I mean, I don't know. It might have been closer, but I don't know if the Lakers, like I said, Lakers will have to play perfect. And they were playing pretty good balls. They were. They were. They were playing pretty good ball. I mean, because, like I said, I always think when they get down double figures, it's hard for them to fight back because they ain't got the five power. But they did that tonight. They did. Yeah. I am almighty James two times. All that arguing over a front seat.

1:12:09Shannon Sharpe:I would have told both of their ass to get in the back.

1:12:16Now,

1:12:19Shannon Sharpe:my mom already be in the back seat. She already be. I'm like, damn. Well, I don't like to be late because I know how you are. Yeah. You right. You are absolutely right. Jordan and Kobe fans have been secretly hoping that LeBron don't get the fifth or sixth ring for at least a decade now. It will end the argument. I think there's enough room for everybody. Look, everybody can be great. They're great in different ways. Kobe is more like Jordan. That's okay. Yeah. LeBron is a passer. He's more like Magic. But who can score? Stylistically, Kobe is more styled like Jordan, and LeBron is more like Magic.

1:13:02Shannon Sharpe:Yeah. Stylistically. It's okay. Yeah. What's up, y 'all? Name a better dancing trio than MC Hammer, MJ, Turbo from Breaking. Turbo. Hey, Turbo. Turbo was hard, boy. I'm breaking. That's classic. Turbo. What about Boogaloo Shrill? Boogaloo. Hey, that's throwback, huh? That's super throwback. Man, Hammer. Boy, don't hurt him, Hammer. Hammer's still cutting up while y 'all playing. I saw a video a couple of months ago about Hammer was rehearsing. Hammer comes in the bop, bop in the bop. Who like the bop in the bop? Hey, Hammer's big time, bro. What? Have you seen her? You seen her? Huge, big time, big time.

1:13:55Yeah. Stop. Hammer time.

1:14:01Shannon Sharpe:Hammer stayed at the hotel. As a matter of fact, that was my rookie year. We played in L.A., and Hammer and team, they were performing. They stayed at the hotel. So Hammer and – not Hammer, but his brother, and a couple of the guys within Melvin Bratton, they knew Fat Cat. And they came down, man. That was bad. Mm. What's up, Ocho and Iso? can you put together an all-time international team to go against the 92 Dream Team? You can coach, so how will they attack them? Hold on. No, no, no. Yeah, but you're talking about, you got to realize those guys were old. If I take the 92 Dream Team and put them in their prime in 92, ain't nobody beating them.

1:14:44Shannon Sharpe:Hell no. They didn't have no weaknesses. They had everything you could think of from facilitators to scores to defenders, shot blockers. What? that's when you had real sinners in the NBA bro real out forwards man please but I guess your international team who you gonna put you put Jokic Giannis, Luka man just think they ain't gonna be dealing with David Robinson Patrick Jordan Jordan

1:15:20Parkley Malone

1:15:21Shannon Sharpe:man what they ain't gonna be able to do nothing with that them real power fours and centers, bro. Yeah.

1:15:33Shannon Sharpe:I got into a car accident with a lady that was touching herself while driving. What? She came out of nowhere. Okay. How you know that? I like that. I like that. What'd you like, Ojo? I mean, she was adventurous. Adventurous? Yeah. Sounded like it was dangerous to me. I mean, adventurous. Oh, you get what you... Oh. She came out of nowhere. Hey, that was a good one. Hey, that was slick. That was slick. He got all of... Hey, see, everybody... Hold on, wait a minute. Everybody been hitting the jokes. Yeah. That was a smooth one. But, nah, I just... Now, that happened one time. I was on... I was 85.

1:16:24Shannon Sharpe:I was going back home, Joe. I was probably running. I was probably running 90. And I see this light. I'm like, I'm looking. I looked down at my face. I'm like, I'm going 90. You way back there? What you flashing for? Flash. She hit me like three times. Joe, I moved over. This lady. Now. Go. Man, get out of here. I said, gone with your bad self. Out of there, huh? I said, baby, I said, speed on. Hell ain't full yet. They taking reservations. Damn. Oh yeah, she, hey, broad daylight. She hitting them lights. I'm like, what the, I'm looking, I'm going 90. What you mean? You ain't up on, man, that lady got up on me so damn quick, y 'all.

1:17:15Man, she's like, look over at me. What she was driving, huh? A Porsche. Oh.

1:17:26Shannon Sharpe:That's okay. A hell of a drug, partner.

1:17:33Shannon Sharpe:Okay, don't choke. What does the play call sheet explain to me in football? So what are the adjustments like during the playoffs and how does the coach make them? Well, in the playoffs, in the NBA playoffs, it depends on what's killing you. Like, if you got a guy who's great in pick and roll, okay, and he running the pick and roll, he kind of get what he want every time he runs it, then that's when you start throwing that trap on his ass. We trap him, make him get up, you know, or mix up the coverages. I don't think, especially the great players in this league, you give them a steady diet of the same defensive coverages, they're going to pick your ass apart.

1:18:12Shannon Sharpe:Mm-hmm. Got to mix it up. Well, you got a call sheet works. Okay, you got first down plays. You got first and 10 plays. So you got 15 of those. Okay, now you got second and one to three. You got second and five to 10. And then you got third and one to three. You got third, three to five. You got third and long. And you got, okay, you got red zone plays. You got goal to go plays. You got backed up plays. So a call sheet might have between 100 and 150 plays on it, don't you? Yeah. And there's always got to have it plays, right? Yeah. That you wait in special moments towards the end of the game where you just got to have it.

1:18:56Yes. A play that you haven't run, a wrinkle that they haven't seen, something that you haven't shown on film, but you got to have it in that one moment. You got to have that play. You got about two or three of those on that call sheet, and you don't go to it unless you really, really need it towards the end of the game. You probably got three or four fourth down plays.

1:19:18Shannon Sharpe:You got a couple of gadget plays. Yeah. Oh, yeah. You always got about one or two gadget plays. Yeah. You got a reverse or you got a fake, a flea flicker.

1:19:31Shannon Sharpe:Flea flicker. The man kill zone. LeBron and A.R. are going to have to score between 90 and 100 points combined for the Lakers to win. Hey, real talk, though, in order for the Lakers to win, they both going to have to be at least close to 30, if not 30. I'm talking about it. They're going to need somewhere between 50 and 60 between the two of them, for sure. Oh, yeah, yeah. For sure, Joe. At a high efficiency rate. Yeah. And you got to get some great productivity from Aiden. You're going to need at least – We need Rui to keep doing what he's doing because Rui going to give you about 20. Marcus Smart need to play.

1:20:07Shannon Sharpe:Marcus Smart need to have a game like he had against Houston, one of those first three games against Houston. And Luke Kennard need to chip in and do what Luke Kennard is capable of doing. I don't know. He's got to play like he played tonight. I don't know if Marcus Smart can have that type of game because his damn hands so full are offensively dealing with shape. Defensively? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Brandon Kyle is the straw that broke the camel's back when it comes to Harden. Cal brought him in to get over the hump because Darius Garland couldn't. Cal might blow this up. Yeah, I agree. I agree. But you got decided.

1:20:49Shannon Sharpe:Why? Because you gave up Garland, who you had on the contract for another two to three years. James Harden left the Clippers because he wanted a two-year extension. And they're like, nah, because giving you a two-year extension doesn't get us closer to where we need to be. Yeah, I think it'll definitely be hard to let him go because you did trade Garland. But damn, Ocho, if you get swept in this series, I don't know. I mean, you got to reevaluate some things. Yeah. Talk about the better game tonight. Much love, Detroit. Detroit, you must be came in late, bro. We talked about how Cade, every big shot they needed to make down the stretch, him and Tobias Harris answered the bell.

1:21:30Shannon Sharpe:Yeah.

1:21:33Shannon Sharpe:Y 'all, the same one that told us, that told the Suns, stop crying about the ref when they lost to OKC. Now y 'all crying about the Lakers using he's 41. Well, tell him to retire. Stop making excuses. Down 13 with SGA on the bench. Man, listen. OKC is a great team. Yeah. SGA just leading the charge. But, damn it, they pretty damn good without him if you just want me to keep it 100. 1 ,000. They got a great system. They got a great system, and those guys thrive in their system.

1:22:16Shannon Sharpe:Tobias got unk hips now, spider shook him. Yeah, that was pretty nasty. That was like, damn. Hey, you know, it's bad when you get sat down like that, and then you go to grabbing that injury. you can't get right up. Because normally, hey, when a guy make you fall like that, you want to pop right on up. Hell yeah. The longer you stay down, the worse it is. And they keep replaying it to try to find out what happened. Man, don't show it. I'm okay. Damn. Hey, Donovan got a mean in-and-out game, boy. Hell yeah. I think Cleveland trading Garland was a mistake for them. Joe, you think that was a mistake?

1:22:51Shannon Sharpe:He couldn't stay healthy, man. I mean, hell. That's all, man. Yeah. They couldn't stay healthy, and they never had any playoff success. So at some point, you could kind of see that they was going to get rid of him. I know another guy that can't stay healthy, but you said they should stay on him. Who? Oh, Joel? He playing tomorrow, Joe? Yeah. Yeah, he probably going to win. Oh, you're talking about, yeah. Yeah, he playing tomorrow. Probably will. What did they list Joel as?

1:23:28Shannon Sharpe:Philly winning the game. I seen Gilly today. Gilly, you know, we had the big three combine today. Gilly out there. I don't know if Gilly really trying to get picked up by nobody on the big three, but I think he just love hooping and competing. Like for him, his age to be out there is good to see. But, you know, he a diehard Philly fan. And he said Sixers going to win tomorrow.

1:23:58Shannon Sharpe:uh the goal come on keep going on that man ain't talking about that okay I'm not saying Kobe was asked to do what Brian was asked to do but Kobe did lead the Lakers in assists not deep fish check the numbers pull up but if you're not saying you but you can't say that because you can't say Kobe wasn't asked to do what LeBron was asked to do.

1:24:32Shannon Sharpe:I mean, because think about it. Draymond normally lead the Warriors in assists. Mm-hmm.

1:24:41Shannon Sharpe:You got Steph out here. Baby Khaled. Y 'all talking some ish, fellas. Cade is different, for sure. Who y 'all like in the East? I told y 'all, I got the Pistons coming out of the East. shoot i said i said the goddamn nicks man it's gonna be uh oh i don't know without og philly might get back in this thing got a point it might get back in this thing og without og hey nicks play tomorrow and he was scoring at a at a great level you are

1:25:20Shannon Sharpe:Hey fam, watching from Houston. It's my birthday and I'd love to get a shout out from my favorite big three. Things my grandma taught me is a woman would never tell her way, income or age, bring nightcap to age time. We don't bite. Uh oh. But we had fun. I mean, hey Ocho, that thing was nice now. Oh, and the one in Houston? Yeah. Hey boy, hey, they don't owe me nothing, boy. Hey, but why y 'all so scared to go back though? Man, Joe, stop, man. You know why. I just keep it 100, man. Yeah, the people want to see y 'all, man. Man, I'm married, Joe. Oh, here he go. Now he married. Y 'all see me? How y 'all doing?
