Well, I guess you won't get invited to the wedding. Back out, Big Three is happy to be parted with the Big Three, and we'll be keeping up with the league all season long. We'll be at number one destination for all game recaps and analysis all summer long. The Dallas Power, 51. Detroit Amps, 48. Amps clawed back from down 25 to 9 at halftime. Joe, they're making a one-possession game at the buzzer, but came up short. NASCOR dropped 29 in the second half alone, a big three record for points and a half, breaking the mark previously held by our own ISO Joe Johnson.

1:11Shannon Sharpe:Core finished with 31 points and eight rebounds. Elijah Stewart added 16.6 rebounds. Dallas stayed undefeated. God dang, Joe, what's going on? Yeah, man. 25 to 9, Joe? You ain't need with 25 more points. Man, we were down by 20 points at one time in this game. Oh, that was the day? Yeah, that was the day, man. Them boys fought back. Oh, yeah. Y 'all was down. Okay, I thought. Oh, okay. I thought of. Nah, nah. I was watching the game. We were down by 20 points at one time. We fought back. I thought Nas caught hot, and he got into a rhythm and made shots. But, hey, man, this Dallas Power team is going to be tough, bro, because they play with a collective group of guys.

1:56It ain't really going to be one guy with 30 points on their team. They going to play like this. They may have a guy with 22, 23, another with 15. You know what I mean? They got to put the guys who can step in and really make plays. They going to be one of the top teams. They probably the only undefeated, one of the only undefeated teams still left in the league. They going to be nice, bro. They going to be around that one. The final four like that, they going to be around.

2:24Shannon Sharpe:the ball hogs, the Boston ball hogs, that is. 50, the LA riot, 40. LA led by 12 points in the second half and looked to be cruising before it all fell apart. Jeremy Pargo buried three, four-pointers in a row to flip the game to seal it for Boston. Pargo, 25 points, 10 rebounds, two threes, and three fours. Dwight Howard chipped in with 14 points, six rebounds, and one block. Hey, hey, kind of surprising to me. You know, I talked to Jeremy, you know, a few days before this game, and me and him was talking. I was like, the game going to come down between Jeremy Pargo and Jordan Crawford on who going to win the game because your point guard played both guys who can really score the ball and play at a high level.

3:13It was whoever had the better game team was going to win. And obviously Jeremy, I think he leads the big three history and four-pointers made. So he made what, four-pointers a day? He made three. Yeah, yeah, yeah. He bowed out. He came to play. He came to play. He said they got a good team. He said he feel like they the most underrated team. And he said he got something for them. And they came out, man. They put it on. They put it on the L.A. ride, though, Dwight and Jordan Crawford.

3:42Shannon Sharpe:Yeah, what you call them? I mean, that might be a good landing spot for Ben Simmons. Oh, where? Yeah. Hey, Ben, holler at me, man. I got something for you, partner. Yeah. You and Ben team up, huh, Joe? Look, look. Ben, you know he want to play make anyway. I got 30 in my back pocket. Yeah. I don't know, Joe. Joe, you've been off two years. You might need to temper that. Don't do that. You might need to temper that. Joe, I'm just saying. You might need to temper a little bit of expectation. I'm saying. I'm saying. Taking into consideration that I'm going to be preparing for the next 10 to 12 months.

4:19Yeah, I'm going to be back. If I can't get out there and dominate, I ain't getting out there. How about that? Yeah, yeah, yeah. See, man, I can do this in my sleep. Three on three? Half court?

It's only like – we only got like 40, 45 minutes because they have so many people coming through. So, yeah, we got – I don't know if we could – are we allowed to tell them who we have, Ash? We got Jalen Brunson and we have Roman Reigns. Okay. Okay. Okay. Yeah, I need to highlight JB anyway. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. He owe me a one-on-one too, but I forgot about that. Yeah. Yeah.

22:19Shannon Sharpe:Hey, I mean, I'm sure we could, I mean, you know, I'm sure we can make the ice bucket challenge happen. Yeah. Yeah. And Ocho, didn't you do it? And I see you do the ALS ice bucket. No, no, no, no, not yet. Not yet. I'm gonna hit that thing. Oh, I'm hit that thing. I'm a dog. Okay.

22:48Shannon Sharpe:Ah, boy, hurt so much watching 17 year old moral sobbing and memo Ochoa crying as well knowing this is it for him. But that's how life and sports work. Yeah. Yeah, good brother. More ago, he gonna be in a few more World Cup, maybe three more. he's only 17. They played extremely well all World Cup, you know, a choice is his last one. Yeah, so man, it's tough. It's tough. I was hoping they were able to pull it out, especially being that they were they were up a man. They had an advantage, but England, England squeeze it out. England squeeze it out. Band Viagra from all sports. Damn, who hating? Because England was allowed to take it.

23:37Shannon Sharpe:And it helped them deal with the altitude, yeah. Man, the way they was running the tide, just like everybody else. But they probably been even tired earlier. Dang. Happy birthday to my son, David. I'm a huge Nightcap fan. I'm Ocho Aiso. Can you guys send a birthday shout-out to my son, who's turning three years old today? I really appreciate you guys. Love the show so much. We absolutely can. David, happy third birthday. Your dad wanted to send you a special shout-out. You're probably too young to hear this or see this now, but there will come a time that you'll know what. He said, man, Iso and Ocho shouted your boy out.

24:17Shannon Sharpe:I was three years old, and here I am 10 years old, 20 years old, 30 years old. So, happy birthday, David. Happy birthday, boy. Happy birthday, twin. Who's winning a two-on-two? Everyone in their prime. Kobe and Kyrie, MJ and AI. Ooh, Joe, who winning? Kyrie, MJ, AI.

24:43Shannon Sharpe:Whoever get the ball first. Man, listen, that'd be a great matchup, bro. I just think Jordan was, like Kobe won defensive player of the year. He won, he got us all deep. Jordan won defensive player of the year. but I think Jordan just – he was such a great defender, Uncle Ocho. You know what I mean? I think that will probably be the separator if you ask him. You think obviously going to be a stay in front of Kyrie? Probably not, but I don't think Kyrie going to be a stay in front of A.I. here. He not. That's why I say whoever gets the ball first.

25:26Shannon Sharpe:Because, hey, with that crossover – Yeah. man i i uh uh ai wasn't nothing to play with hey all them boys nice but yeah kyrie and ai that always be a great battle because oh yeah for his size and ai for his size both of those guys are probably two of the best finishers from a guard standpoint i've ever seen play the game bro i'm talking about the way kyrie finish over big guys and ai the way he used to finish i'm like they're hot. Yeah. So they special. They both special in their own right, bro. And the thing was, they didn't play, really play above the rim. Now you look at a guy like D Rose, you look at a guy like Westbrook that played above the rim and you're like, okay, I can see.

26:10Shannon Sharpe:But the way AI can slither and AI probably was a buck 65 at his best. And the way he stayed in the trees. Mm-hmm. Man. He was tough, bro. Man, just listen to AI talk. man if AI would have got some good sleep on the road man it'll tell him what AI could have done AI say man I dropped 55 and then the coach benched me cause somebody saw me out at 5am he said man you tried to help them win too then huh AI enjoyed himself boy oh he did man ISO us in the chat have been watching nightcap for years though damn well Unk is A and Ocho is A minus also it's a reason to check out Ocho Ocho Frico we heard him tell them stories hold on how y 'all put me in front of Ocho now now this ain't new to us you know I've been telling y 'all y 'all fighting for first place not me he's Unk number one no no no no they just said Ocho first of all Ocho got all the guys See, just see the thing is what Joe has done.

27:25Shannon Sharpe:See, Joe be trying to pit us against one another, and then he just lay in the background and don't nobody suspect anything. But we know it. See, Chad? He the worst one. And that's the problem we have, because see, y 'all won't take accountability of y 'all freaking this. Man, it don't make y 'all no bad brother, bro. I still like it. Y 'all some good dudes, you know what I mean? Hey, hey, Joe, one thing about it. You know, I don't have nothing. I ain't ashamed of nothing. You know, I'm forward with everything that I do. And if I was. The official language of football is trash talk, late night group chats, memes and unbelievable highlight clips.

You can run that game on everybody else, but me and Unc, we ain't fooled. Unc can't wait to chime in. Thank you. Man, Chad ain't going. Listen, listen. Y 'all can't convince me and y 'all can't convince Chad. We ain't going. We already know. No, we, we, we, no, they, they, they, they call, they call, they got sneak freak and sneaky freak.

28:54Shannon Sharpe:You sneaky freak.

28:58Shannon Sharpe:Sneak freak is great.

29:03Shannon Sharpe:But we don't, we don't, hey, chat, y 'all know that one. Everybody know, everybody know that one. That one, that one that don't nobody suspect. Oh, she's so good. Oh, she, she gets straight A's. Yeah. Always a quiet one. That's right. Y 'all ain't fooled in, man. Yeah. Big three, what formation coverage or did you or play? Did you guys hate defenses run when you play new rankings? One, Ocho two, ISO three. I hate it when teams play zone, bro. I hate it when teams play zone, Ocho. Hey, hey, hey, don't get this man to man, man. Let me get a dude at work over here, man. I can't get no shots over here, man.

29:55Yeah. You like me.

29:59Shannon Sharpe:I want to play the play man.

30:05Shannon Sharpe:I mean, look, in basketball, in football, it's a little easier. We have zone beaters. We have man beaters. The only difference is that I might not be the read. I might not be the first or second read in the zone beater. Yeah. Hey, and the man read, hey, first one get open. I know John's going to give him the ball the first one get open. Now, normally I got the shallow cross or I got the basic cross or I got something close. So, hey, if I win right now, hey, I'm getting on my horse. I'm going to get it. Now, sometimes he's going to take his shot. He's like, hey, I saw your tee, but I want to take this shot over the top.

30:39Shannon Sharpe:Okay, cool. But no. It really didn't matter to me. I hate his own unless I was the first read in the zone. Hey, it don't matter to me. Because I try and get up in my shadow. Hey, you missed a tackle. Yeah. I'm out. Why is it not a problem that they incorrectly used VAR, but it was for the call was suspended. People would rather FIFA be corrupt than fix it. I mean, they was like, you know what? We've been corrupt for so long. we might as well just keep it going hey because you remember they had that big overhaul they came in and found out people were doing all this other stuff going on they thought they had cleaned it up hey

31:37Shannon Sharpe:his studs weren't up he was trying to get his footing behind himself, unlike Messi who didn't get a card. They ain't calling nothing on Messi. You get that. That ain't happening. What a big three. As a Mexican, I'm saddened and heartbroken. I love my country and my team, especially this squad. Saddened. We out. But viva Mexico.

32:04Shannon Sharpe:Ochoa's Ronaldo set the precedent. They suspended his two-game suspension in qualifiers at 24. Messi did the same foul with spikes in this World Cup. It was not even a yellow nor bar review. Go USA. Well, now that I know that, hey, hell yeah, we should have. I'm glad. This World Cup is amazing, but why these dudes stub their left big toe on the turf? Roll three times and grab their right foot. I get strategy for Jesus. I thought OKC flopped, but man. Hey, I think, man, it's been extreme, too. Hey, that was funny. That was funny. They say stubbed their left toe, rolled three times to grab their right foot.

32:48Hey, that was funny.

32:53Shannon Sharpe:Aiso is Haaland or Lukaku. Just give him the ball and put the ball in the net. Ocho is Progba, Balotelli, that's giving up in his original Ronaldo when the stage is at his brightest, he's shining. I'll involve him. So you prog by Balotelli, Ocho? I'd rather be Balotelli. You'd rather be Balotelli? Yeah. Yeah, I like Balotelli, man. I like him a lot. He's basically just me, just in soccer. You know, at times he was a headache, but when he played well, oh, he was hell to deal with. Yeah, you had a Mohawk too. Yeah.

33:40Shannon Sharpe:uh oh joe iso can we get boxing back to the glory days boxers fighting each other and not this wannabe undefeated mess well i don't think that's ever coming back guys so that's gonna be up to the boxers yeah hey that that money right that money that money gonna force them to fight each other you know hopefully everything hopefully everything goes well with turkey ali uh you know prayers up to him and whatever it is that he's going you know going through but turkey ali had people actually fight each other because of the purse or the money with the money was making the money was making sense so okay you know let's get it on what you think joe uh they'll fight you gotta get yeah i'm like oh you gotta get that damn money right you get that money that money that money talk that bs walk a thousand miles yes you put the right fingers up there uh them boys gonna side on the dotted line.

34:38Trust me.

34:40Shannon Sharpe:I agree with you guys. I think so, too. Taylor, high school national champ, won yesterday, 1975, at the pre-classic at 200 meters. He was sensational. The kid can absolutely, I mean, for him to go out there and the Olympic gold medalist, let's see, let's go. He crushed him. I don't know what these kids, I don't know what these kids, I mean, he ran 9.92 in the 100 meters. Now he's running 1975. I just don't know what these kids run. I don't know what these teenagers do now. And he was flying, boy. Where you from, huh? Yeah, and you see what Quincy Wilson last year run 44-10. I mean, and these high school ladies, they running.

35:18Shannon Sharpe:It's just phenomenal what they're doing, man. I mean, the hurdlers. You saw Brett go 12-86. And Thorpe go 12-91. Thorpe got the world record. It's at 12-75 at the NCAAs. I mean, these kids just flying, man. Hey, what's the difference, though? What do you think the difference is nowadays compared to back when y 'all was running? The way they got training, they know more. They train. The tracks are different. The spikes, the shoes are different. Yeah. Technology, Joe. I'm getting up out of it. Because if you think about it, no horse have touched Secretariat's race. He's still got the record in the Kentucky Derby.

35:59Shannon Sharpe:He's still got the record in the Preakness. And he's still got the record in the Belmont. Because what technology can you do? can you get what different shoes you can't get them no carbon fiber horseshoes you can't get so but they made the tracks faster they got a special type of mondo that's faster now you got training it's just they know more but this this kid here is phenomenal 1975 and 18.

36:37Shannon Sharpe:and you still and you still got no no a lot i mean he'd be a to be uh kung fu kenny he'd be uh i was kenny kenny kenny came in fourth no what no he was in the hundred kitty was in the hundred kitty didn't run the 200 because ajai ajai rent won the uh won the hundred and oblique seville got second and then Christian Coleman and then Kung Fu Kenny what you call him it was good to see Coleman get back to his winning ways but I don't know if he can recapture the form that he had in 17, 18 17 I think he won the 17 or was it 19 I think he won 19 he won the world championship because I think Justin Gatlin won it in 17 and he won it in 19 and then what you call him, one in 21.

37:27Shannon Sharpe:Fred Curley and then Noah Lyles. I don't know, man. I can't wait to see Taylor and Noah Lyles because Noah is a 200. He's trying to get better at the 100, but without that takeoff, he get left in the blocks. These kids, they rolling down. You look at Ajay, the way he get out the blocks now, he's so powerful. Tied to Nigeria national record yesterday at 984. He had an illegal win at the NCAAs. I think he ran like 972, 973. They just, these kids flying now, man. These kids flying. It was a great race yesterday between Sha 'Carri and Melissa Jefferson Wooden. Yeah, she came in second. That was a good race.

38:12It was close.

38:13Shannon Sharpe:They didn't have the St. Lucian in there, Julian Alfred, who had been running phenomenal times. DeAsia Hodge, the Georgia Bulldog product, the Great Brit. Man, I can't wait to see this thing. They get laid a little – because I'm looking at this – Melissa only ran – this is like the only second one. Sha 'Carri, this is only her like second or third. And they're already running in the 10-7s. So when you put all of them together, when you put Sha 'Carri and you put Melissa Jefferson and you put De 'Asia Hodge and you put Julian Alford and you get them in one of these Diamond League meets and one of these fast tracks, something special going to pop up.

38:53Shannon Sharpe:Oh, I've been a fan since your CBS days. Post game show you and Prime did undisputed first take club. Shea Shea within five days. My fam suffered three deaths driving home for the funeral. I listen to nightcap. Thanks, bro. Man, I am so, so sorry to hear that, man. I thought some prayers to go out to you and your family. That is a lot of that is a lot of home going that you have to deal with. And yeah, see me like you have to try to process one. You have to don't even get an opportunity to process another. to process another one, man. So we're so sorry to hear that, man. But we're sending our thoughts and prayers out to you and hopefully everything.

39:29Shannon Sharpe:And we appreciate your support. That means a lot to us that in a time and a situation that we can bring you some comfort. So thank you. Oh, why are you so tough on DeAndre Ayton? Because he has all that ability. He doesn't play hard. That bothers me. You cheat. He ain't reached his potential. But then nobody you know like he was a bit a lot better than seven foot. He absolutely do because he can do a lot better if he just if he just played hard. I'm not saying I don't need you to be Shaq. I don't need you to be a lot. You want I don't need you to be David Robb. I don't need but I know you can be better than what you play that effort.

40:08Shannon Sharpe:Your coach said I can't play him. His coach said in a playoff game. I just can't play him. Let that sink in. Imagine a coach saying to any player in any sport, I just can't play it. Yeah, liability. Yep. Got to rip a ticket. What's up, Big Three? Ocho and LeBron need to have a who is the cheapest competition. Future nightcap outside episode.

40:47Shannon Sharpe:Bye, guys. Malachi Tony is the biggest threat to Jeremiah Smith as the college football top receiver. Who is the better year? ISO, who stands out about Caleb Wilson's – what stands out about Caleb Wilson's game, his biggest flaw, and is Chicago the right fit? Nah, Jeremiah Smith is NFL ready. You're talking about a guy that's 6 '2", 6 '3", 220, 225 pounds, probably running high 4 '3", 4 '4". You're saying Malachi? Malachi Tony is phenomenal. He's good. but Jeremiah Smith is he's a real deal he's a real deal and that's not saying Malachi Tony isn't but Jeremiah Smith is prototypical he's NFL you look for a receiver Jeremiah Smith has an NFL wide receiver body and he's a junior I think with Caleb Wilson I think he is in a great position meaning in Chicago they got a lot of great young talent there and I think they really going to feature him fucking Ocho Cut.

41:49At 6 '9", 6 '10". Long, athletic, can shoot the three, can shoot the midi, got a pretty good post-up game. He's only going to get better. I think he's a dark horse in this rookie class to win rookie of the year, bro. I think this dude's got a lot of talent, a lot of potential. It's going to be up to him. He got all the tools. When you're talking about putting it on the floor, scoring at all three, four levels, hell, he can do it. And he takes the defensive side, you know, just as serious as he does his offense. That's going to be the difference.

42:27Shannon Sharpe:Who's a better Viking, Randy Moss or Adrian Peterson? Shit, that's a good question. They're so different. I wish both of them could have finished their careers there.

42:44Shannon Sharpe:both were so outstanding Randy was different yeah man 17 touchdowns as a rookie playing with CC over there who was that head over there and they had Jake they had CC and Jake Jake Reed they had Robert Smith in the backfield Yeah, 17. Teddy's as a rookie. That's impressive. Yeah. Hey, the man Thanksgiving game, Joe. The stat line was three catches for 163 yards. I think that was terrible, wasn't it? Yep. That's crazy. I was, you know, Joe, you said the backup about Wilson, but hey, that kid from the Lakers car, man he put on a show I just don't know with Luka and AR if he's going to get the same opportunities that he got getting in the summer league but he look like he's going to be a player.

43:48Shannon Sharpe:Potential wise he looked great. He had a great year at Baylor but yeah he got caught look he wrote his draft stock rose during the Chicago pre-draft workouts to where he went 5-5 that man was killing it automatically they put him in the first round but you're right He got a lot of talent. He athletic, can shoot the three. He can score that ball. You're right. It just depends. You know, as a rookie, man, everything kind of fluctuates. Everything be up and down during the season unless you like him, you like the guy. But even yet still, those guys still have a tendency to struggle. And that's what you can hope you get from your rookies is that they can somehow, someway be consistent.

44:30But he nice, though. He nice.

44:33Shannon Sharpe:please make sure you uh

Brazil had failed to advance to the quarterfinals for the first time since 1994. Holland makes the quarterfinals for the first time in the World Cup history.
