Nightcap Hour 3: Cardinals Exec Ryan Gold APPEALING INDEFINITE Suspension + BIG3 RECAP

12:45Shannon Sharpe:to get the right people around him Ocho and Joe and kind of lead him in the right direction and he never got that he never got that and you look at him and you're just like damn what could have been what should have been

13:02Chad Johnson:yeah they got they still got a chance to get hot I think with Lance and B's that two headed monster You know, when they clicking on our cylinders, they're going to be a hard team to beat. Plus, you got them hard-working guys like Sean Williams who do all the dirty work. I think he was defensive player of the year last season. So they got a pretty good team, bro. They just got to put it together.

13:26Shannon Sharpe:The Chicago Triplets beat the L.A. Riot 50-31. History was made in Chicago. Montrell Harrell poured in 42 points on 16-26 shooting. The most points ever scored in a big three game, breaking the record of 37 set by Isaiah Briscoe back in 2024. He added 11 rebounds, dominated the pain from the opening tip. Dwight Howard missed his second straight game with a groin injury. Joe. I'm Trevor. He's balling, boy. Trez was putting stuff up. Trez just was throwing a couple of corner threes up. He just threw it up and it went in.

14:01Chad Johnson:Yeah.

14:02Shannon Sharpe:That's what you're like. Yeah, I'm on one tonight. It's going to be a good day.

14:06Chad Johnson:You know it's going to be a good day today. He got off to a pretty good start, Anka Ocho. But I think this is just his second game he played this season, bro. He hadn't been really playing. I think he had like 32 or something.

14:19Shannon Sharpe:He had 34 in the other game.

14:20Chad Johnson:34. 34 in that first game. Then he come back with 42. He set the record.

14:26Shannon Sharpe:But he said he played in another tournament the night before.

14:30Chad Johnson:TBT. He played in that the day before they lost. Yes. And he said he didn't play up to his capabilities, so he said he had a lot left in the tank. He said that's what he told the guys before the game today. He said, man, I told him I had a lot left in the tank, and I was going to go yard. And, boy, look, the boy went off. I'm watching the game. The boy went off.

14:50Shannon Sharpe:That man's going 42 or they 50 points, Joe.

14:53Chad Johnson:They're only going to 50, Ocho. That's crazy. That man's going 42 or they 50. That's crazy. But listen, the L.A. ride without the White Howard, They had nobody. I mean, nobody who could stop dude, bro. He was doing what he wanted. He was doing what he wanted. And he got to all his spot, making shots. Like I was saying, hell, he threw up a three one time. He surprised his damn self it went. I'm like, damn. Yeah.

15:25Shannon Sharpe:So, Montreux Harrell scores the most points in a big three game. He poured in 42 points, breaking the previous record of 37 by Isaiah Briscoe, just set just in 2024. 16 of 26 shooting, 11 rebounds. So it just wasn't one-sided. The Ball Hogs beat DMV Trilogy 51-27, a wide-to-wide beatdown. Jeremy Pargo led the way with 21 and knocked down a four, while Deshaun Stevenson muscled up 17 points, 10 rebounds for a double-double. The ball hogs getting it going. I think DMV, didn't they lose back-to-back games, Joe?

16:04Chad Johnson:I think so. You know, the ball hogs coached by Gary Payton, so he going to keep them some dogs over there. You know what I mean? Bad GP. Yeah, yeah, yeah. You can't help it because he exuded so much. Uncle Ocho means like talking to him before the game, like he just gave you that energy that you need to go out there and compete. And then when you look at Jeremy Pargo, I think, hell, the last three games, he probably averaging about 24, 23 points a game. And that's what they going to need for them to be able to succeed and make it to the postseason. You know, I talk to Jeremy pretty often. Me and Jeremy Parker will probably talk at least two, three times a week.

16:39Chad Johnson:And I was just telling them, bro, look, you got to stay aggressive. You have to go out there and put your imprint on the game. And the past three, three, four weeks, he's been doing that. I don't really know what's going on with Trilogy. but it seemed like they got off to a great start this season but you know as last few games they've been struggling

16:59Shannon Sharpe:so yeah yeah they have they have yeah I said them boys gotta find a way to stay hot now

17:09Chad Johnson:yeah hey hey hey and I know Steven Jackson don't like that

17:14Shannon Sharpe:the Houston rig hands beat the Detroit Amp 51-44 Isaiah Austin anchored the big rigs the rig hands that is 19 points, 13 rebounds. Jonathan Simmons added 18 points on 21 shots to push Houston to a win. Detroit falls to O and 4. It's officially eliminated from playoff contention. Damn. God dang, Joe. They got us out of there? Yeah, out of there. O and 4, Joe, you officially eliminated.

17:40Chad Johnson:Hey, Detroit, I'm sorry, man. I apologize to the city of Detroit. I wish I could have, you know, helped in some form or fashion. Hell, I wish I could have been playing, but unfortunately, God had other plans for me, you know, just go around. So we'll see what happens next year, but it's unfortunate. Okay, Ocho. Barry.

18:03Shannon Sharpe:Yeah. We'll hear your ass up and get back out there next year. You're making us look bad. Yeah. When I see me on that court too, Ocho. What? Well, you got – I mean, you already said you got something for Joe one-on-one. I saw y 'all doing a little something back there in the green room yesterday

18:21Chad Johnson:I was trying to show him how he didn't have a chance He doing all these moves And I'm right there in front of him Nothing he doing working Hey, Chad I hadn't even took a dribble yet That's what he failed to realize I was just using a jab series on your ass I wasn't even giving you the ha-ha I wasn't giving you all that I was just giving you the face-up The heem-heem Hey, just so you understand man, the jab, I ain't moving. The hee hee, I ain't moving. I ain't budging. Unless you move, you got to give me some... I got patience, Joe. That's the one thing. That's what's going to frustrate you. Not only do I have patience, you're going to try to use your shoulder and body me.

19:06And once I anchor down, I'm going to absorb that and I'm going to still be right there. I'm going to close the space because I know you're a shooter. They call you ISO for a reason, So what do you do with a player that's very good in the ISO ball? You close the space. You don't get much room to maneuver. I don't like a room to work with.

19:25Chad Johnson:You trying to suffocate me? Just a little bit, Joe. Now I'm going to give you a little breathing room because I don't want no foul and I can't hand check. I don't want to hand check. I don't even put the elbow in your back. You hear me? So I got to use these puppies, boy. You got to move them feet. One thing about these puppies, I can shuffle them. You hear me? Yeah. Yeah. Okay, we're gonna see. I never put the ball on the floor the few times that we kind of got into it. I was just jabbing you, just getting some space so I can get that jimmy on. You feel me? You wanna see what he was gonna do?

19:53Chad Johnson:You gonna see how he was gonna react. I'm just trying to see what kind of tendencies he got. You know what I'm saying? I see what you're saying. I see what you're saying. And when I assessed him, I said, oh man, come on. This is like taking candy from a damn baby. I really feel bad if you just want me to keep it 100. If that's the assessment you got, it's going to be a long day for you on that court, boy. Okay, okay. I'll tell you that. Okay.

20:20Shannon Sharpe:Well, he read it wrong. If he got that kind of assessment on Joe, he read it wrong, huh? He need one for my eye. That's what he got.

20:32Chad Johnson:Yeah. Okay. That's all.

His imprint, every game that they've won, messy imprint has been on the game. It's been on him. They made him a non-factor. Yeah, this is the one game you want a non-factor to.

42:45Shannon Sharpe:I know now, so no problem. I bet, you know, I've got to get out of the habit. And I've always been like this. Getting somewhere and be the first one to try to get home. I ain't lying. Hey, I'm trying to get back to Atlanta. Man, hey, I was supposed to be on the 5 o 'clock yesterday. I said, nah, Shelly. Hey, if we can get on that three, put us on the three. She said, there's a two o 'clock. I said, we won't be able to make it by two because the guy ain't coming to pick us up until 12. Right. So, ain't no way we're going to get there by two. We won't be able to make the two, but we can damn sure make that three.

43:25Shannon Sharpe:I've got to get out of that habit. It's just, at my age now, I don't deal with that fake-ish, man.

43:36Chad Johnson:Yeah.

43:36Shannon Sharpe:I can't. Yeah.

43:39Chad Johnson:I honestly think it's unfair because why?

You know why cows don't have hooves, Joe?

44:55Chad Johnson:Why cows - No, cows do have hooves. Why do humans don't have hooves? No, why don't cows have feet, Joe?

46:54Chad Johnson:Yeah, they have to implement some, Uncle Ojo, to where, you know, you can't punish a team, bro, just because they draft well and develop their players.

47:02Shannon Sharpe:There need to be some type of reward. I agree, Joe. It has to be, bro.
