The volume.

Good morning, Happy Tuesday, starts your day all five twenty in the morning.

I'm the host.

My name is DJ Wills, my Steam co host. To my left, I got Bishop Heindrick. To my right, I got Jeffrey T. Fellas.

Good morning, how y'all doing? Man could calling me Jeffrey Man?

I can't call your government of working man my mom. It just call me tea my policy.

I'm with you. I can't say not through on this platform. We ain't in that type of vib right now. But I tee you respect. Can't call you whatever you wan.

We called man first sasupparst to kick off the show, Ravens belt to a Last night, Lamar Jackson was absolutely insane, looking like he throw another MVP candidate type run. He had the same amount of touchdowns its incompletions yesterday. They handled business last night against the Buccaneers. Listen, man seventeen for twenty two, two eighty one and five TDSNA.

I could have been six, but they call one back, you know what I mean, because of a whole penalty.

But he went crazy yesterday for the show.

Listen.

I've never understood why he's got some of the fact that he's gotten, especially as tacklers he's played since he's been in the NFL.

You think he can go ahead and get that three p for MVP.

Uh yeah, but MVP's they need a championship, man. I think he'd get all that went off his name if you get a chip and this.

Year, man, the doors wide open.

I mean, obviously Kansas City is playing well or winning, but the quarterback home's not playing great, but they're finding ways to win. The Lamar Jackson right now, he got his foot on the guests for sure.

Most definitely listened. Five wins in a row. Dereck Henry did his thing as well. We speak about that man later in the show. The other game that took place last night, you had the Chargers in the Cardinals ugly game. Cardinals got the victory on the late field, go seventeen to fifteen. I am not the biggest fan of the double headers on the Monday night. Listen, we all got to get up and go to work in the morning, even though we all appreciate more sports. That game definitely was a step child game yesterday for sure.

For sure, they shouldn't have did that.

Bro.

I was confused when they said it was starting, I was like, damn what we got a whole prom time game right now? How y'all just gonna do them like that?

It's crazy, But it's not like it's who I made anything Network, But you know, sometimes but this NBA, they'll put your a TV in a heartbeat.

Facts as a Hawks player, I stayed on NBA TV no love.

What's what's the Indianapolis channel for the Pacers?

Well that is ballet Sports Unfortunately.

Okay, I could remember the name of it. Back in the day we used to have to watch like how Chicago could only see.

The Bulls for sure.

We were lokey on up a give listen, Happy Basketball Day for all the believers. NBA fishing kicks off to night. Yes, we have been waiting on this. It's been a wonderful off season, crazy moves going on. We had the Olympics, but right before the season starts saying that rookie sension payd eight time.

A lot of people got paid yesterday. Man shout out, shout.

Out to the young legens being more millionaires in the situation we got stared Jayleen green side of historic deal. He's the first one to ever get a two plus one for a three digit contract.

My man signed for three years with a p O for one oh six.

Trap support just went up.

Him. What you're doing with three years on out six?

Well you put me in Jayleen Green?

Absolutely okay.

Well, me and me and Dre are gonna start hosting parties in Houston to get some of that backend money take care of some of the payments. So I got ahead of me with these babies.

We just bring the Hitters experience Houston.

We're gonna start to tour off in Houston and every away city.

It's up now.

But now he deserved that though he's a killer bro even playing great the preseason Real Life Killer three years when I was six, So I mean he'd be backing free agency soon.

Yes, sir, that was a smart play. Yeah, I've seen a lot of people talk about that, you know what I'm saying. We always talk about getting that guaranteed bread. We'll talk about contracts a little bit more. But him having a player option after two years, he'll still obviously be in the prime of his career.

He'd be able to get it. Yeah, he's like twenty two young, so.

He's gonna get a super paid They on the way things work out the way I hope. So you know what I'm saying, running baby Joker Sunga got paid five to eighty five, not quite the max, but one eighty five ain't no bad chicken to mate.

No, hell no, not for him. That's perfect.

Yeah, Yeah, they solidified. They sent a position with him. You got five more years with him, so hip for him on eighty five. Lord knew they shouldn't have gave me.

Nothing like that.

What you're doing in Houston.

In Houston, put him in Utah more than me.

T Haliburton.

We'll turn them sister girls up.

Oh Ben, shout out to the pay Day listen to Rockets got a young core, They got young talent that gotta figure out who they're gonna move forward with forever. If he got paid last year, but I think going forward, you know what I'm saying, They got their guys that they weren't locked in for a long time period.

Yo, Hawks, Jalen Johnson got paid.

Told you I got locked him in the future. Hey listen, he signed to me five years one fifty. A lot of people were thinking is he worth thirty million dollars a year? Most definitely, especially in two years this contract is going to look like an absolute still.

Nah. Yeah, he's one of those guys. I think he's gonna be an All Star this year. He could potentially He's shooting the ball a lot, better, jumpers some proof, so he can continue to work on that and then like take that next step being trade running mate.

I think it'd be Awestar.

Most definitely, you say you know, I'm saying you got you know, Zactary the number one pick. They definitely got a young nucleus or something that could build around.

For sure.

The future still betrayed, but while they're there, they're gonna make it happen. We talked yesterday about the Nuggets. We had a little bit of uncertainty and Gordon got paid yesterday. Four year, one thirty three baby.

Running up in the league.

Yeah, him and Tobias Hears clown clowning.

Right for him though, because he've been playing, will have been robbed a couple of years of being an All Star, So he's a he deserves to pay that on the top defenders in the league.

Is this his third payout? I don't know, because see he been on a historical run. He don't pay that.

And it don't look I guess it anytime soon. He still getting to it, My boy getting that chicken.

The different Nuggets are playing two K twenty five without the salary cap on because they are paying everybody.

They starting to five crazy money.

They deserve it, though, bro and they brought a chip to the city.

Definitely, they brung a chip to Denver. Nobody expected that, right, Definitely, shout out to ag getting that bread.

Trey Murphy four year, one twelve and my guys injured right now, so for him to solidify the deal.

He can't even play right now. Salute King. No facts.

He's like good player though he a valuable pig. He can shoot guard.

What are you like?

Six y nine athletic. They had to keep him because the Hawks he's on our way.

What man? Three four specialists play defense? Y'all need it, man, God, that couple of them.

But listen, I think the best part about this is everybody is talking now, like how the Salar Cravias rolls like he's.

Getting thirty million dollars. He's getting thirty million dollars.

The crazy part is in two years, three years, thirty million dollars will look like almost nothing.

I need to like figure out my life because the thirty million dollars looks like nothing.

I'm coming out of retiring.

That was that boy first deal one back in the day, four years.

Back in my day. It's all looved. I'm excited for these young guys for sure.

For sure, you gotta get that Linzo deal, Meg, get you a new le Man tap back in this old My boy Jason Suggs got paid to Yes, sir, five or one fifth, that's been the thirty million dollars be like the market point for you.

What I'm saying for a lot of good players.

The star, I mean a star potential potential I believe started for sure. I think defensively, his ability on the court makes him worthy to play every night.

Definitely a starter.

I don't know if he'll be a star, but I think he has the opportunity to be, especially on a young team that's on the rise, that's gonna be really really really.

Good this ship. Yeah, he got the potential to be a star.

I mean what, he's six y five, can play most guard positions, can guard one.

Through four basically. Yeah, but I'm hyph for him.

I know it was about to be a nice house in Orlando, you know, to get something nice. I'd be I'll be pulling up to the curb.

Bro told us about Florida that no state income taste it a little different. Fuck.

Most definitely another name we spoke up, Jadon Hardy Mavericks got a nice little payday three year at eighteen, didn't really get a chance to show his full potential last year. Definitely show some flashes throughout the rotation, sh on the team that's super guard heavy, and the opportunity for him to grow a couple of years and get the more back pay day.

But ain't nothing wrong with locking that eighteen million Nah.

No, it's good for him in the second round pick then you didn't get to see a lot of time on the court. So just to stay in the league for another three years and have some you know, it solidified bread for you, it's good.

Most definitely moving on to Golden State. Most of his Moody got paid three year thirty Now, Uh, another player who didn't get to show his full potential because you have a team full of Hall of famers. So for him locking the deal like that now going into the situations, most definitely fire, especially for the fact that Kaminga did not get paid at all.

Believe in Moody for sure, most definitely.

I mean he's a very solid rotational player. Like we said, it still hasn't got a chance to worry flourish it.

He must be showing some glimpses in practice that we haven't seen because I haven't really seen him on the court much in obviously, I know he's a shooter come out of high school in college, but I haven't seen him play a lot. So I'm assuming that in practicing early in this preseason been playing well. I'm assuming I think how I was from this year for sure.

And we've been talking about the quote unquote littlok offense for the words how to re innovate themselves this year.

I think he's definitely gonna be a part of that, for sure, I gotta be. I mean, he just give him thirty nine way to lock in that chicken and listen. If you don't play, it ain't not the wrong making for the MS on the bench.

Forget sure.

Now, what do you think about Kaminga not getting a deal. Do you think he's like too high on hisself right now or do.

You think but.

Well, I think from West reporter, obviously we don't know if it's just true or not. He sees himself in a Kawhi Leonard type situation to where he feels like he's going to be a player at that his value is going to be shown next year. He's gonna get to pay that he deserves. But also, you're on the team where you are not the first option. Is he the second option on Golden State?

Yeah?

So I think if he's the second option, then I'm not mad at him for holding out or not getting an agreement with what they wanted to pay him, because more likely he'll probably killed this year. So doesn't mean you get paid from Golden State or somebody else. I get it, it'll be restricted.

So don't get hurt.

Yeah, Dennis shrewder Vidpo all great players. But when you've bet on yourself, Bro's it's a high risk bro low rule or for real.

And I think he's young enough if he do get hurt. Yeah, he still could get five years one twenty. No, that's all, you know what I'm saying. He still got the potential to be a really good player, so he betted himself to get the max.

But I just don't think he's better than Jalen Johnson like I don't.

And that's one of those things is no matter how good you feel like you are, you are as good as the market is. Yeah, and I don't feel like he felt the same. Well obviously he instead of value of himself as what everybody else is and pay. But like you said, you take that risk and one thing. Switch over NFL a little bit, Brandon, you can fortunately got hurt this weekend, but.

He held out. Yeah, so he head off for his bread.

I know it's a little bit different between NFL contracts and NBA, but he locked in that deal before he played. Now if he doesn't lock in that deal, he gets hurt. Now what you look at the Bucks yesterday with a good one. You know what I'm saying. He was looking for a crazy payday. He got hurt in garbage hime in the game that they won't come back fro him. So now, like you know what I'm saying, we look at these players like, maybe he's so too early, But nothing wrong with taking care of your family, for sure, sure.

Man wrong with that, but I'm still a little questionable about that. Kaminga. But hopefully you get a max deal. Hopefully kill everything go well, but.

I don't know, Tom will tell I like kaminga though, but it is just tough, bro, and you betting on yourself like that, and you kind of trying to force the hand and you ain't.

He solidified, but not Kawhi Leonard is a push bro.

I mean Kawhi Leonard was competing in the finals.

Yeah, a little different. But also don't he got a ring too.

I'm most definitely not the same at all, monster, and no disrespect.

It was more like a complimentary ring. You didn't really get like that one.

I was wondering what that was.

I thought that was a little trigger, that's or something I got it from your jewel.

I thought that was a new man spending the ring. You got to change people getting they get a tack on the sideline.

You gotta put damns on here, man on us.

Man, I was looking on that. You don't get us and they run to the sale pick. You had to be here change you said, I'm taking every chain all that.

Okay, boy.

Keeping his plug bridges the eighties. Hey man An b A is officially Backman in Doublehead. We spoke up a little bit yesterday, but ring no obviously showing y'all what time it is Nicks versus Celtics.

How about it?

This is trash celebration.

Defectly, the rotation is crazy.

No shouting to the bucks man.

Who y'all got tonight? Man, Nick, Celtics, Celtics, going with Celtics.

Yeah, I'm going, nah, I'm gonna go with Yeah, I'm going, nah, I'm going to Celtics. They're gonna be celebrating, might be hyping thereka good energy.

Yeah, they got the rings going. I know the feeling. No, I don't. I didn't play you adn't close, didn't even shouting.

Yes, But I think typically we have, like you know what I'm saying, the celebration hangovers, championship hangover. I don't think we have that with Jayleen Brown or Jason Tatum. Obviously we're having the Olympics with j T and then we see Jaylen Brown. You know what I'm saying, went on with Steve and A talking about yeah, I'll playing the twenties playing Olympics if I signed with Nike. So I think they both have a chip on their shoulder. And to have two players come back from winning with that type of mentality, I think they're gonna be locked in, especially in the next team, because everybody's already putting them to be against them at the Eastern conferenceponsible. I can see them setting the tone.

It's a great opening night, it's a great game half opening night to the teams that everybody's excited about, and then follow up with the Lakers. So it's gonna be a good night for basketball. I'm excited. It's gonna be interesting, though. I gotta see ya. Like I said yesterday on the show, I gotta see it, Mike Keil bridges Man what he's gonna be looking like for real?

Bro most definitely, I'm very interested to see TIB's rotation. Like we said year ago, TIB don't play too many people, but now he's got a lot of talent on their roster that he's gonna have to figure that out without disrupting everybody else's game.

So you think the rotation are gonna because I don't really see. I think it's perfect TIV. Now you just gotta play you what and Thenob bridges Towns mm hm, and then you got a strong eight who the eight after Bronson, Mike Kill, bridges In and o Be Towns.

Should have four.

Yeah, Brown are definitely do play. But who they Fivephony Towns. But mister Robbinson's actually ah, he's out there. That's why I had I had Mitch.

So that's eight.

We're gonna see that five for sure. Yeah, we ain't gonna see nobody. I don't even know who they got another punk I got in the drafted pretty much supposed to can R. McConnell. Yeah, you will soon, Mark.

Right now he might get like ten minutes again. Press might play a little bit. He definitely probably played, but he got his five. It's about the rock out of forty eight. Josh Hart gonna play, Yes, Joshrop most definitely. Josh Hart might be six man or is he starting? He'll probably be six men? But I think they got to figure that out too. Yeah, I say that something Brunson, Yes, sorry, Mike kill Bridges and n B Towns Are they starting Josh Art two?

That's that?

Who's the two on the team that's like the scary bar Kill Bridges or Josh and Michael Bridges is the two shooting with that hitch they're gonna be in.

For can run the two bro everything?

But yeah they're not. No, but there's no sub game.

Yeah, So I don't know.

I just think the more so the Knicks got to figure it out more so than the Celtics. Celtics already kind of established, like we know what we do. Yeah, this is a brand new team all the way running board for the Knicks. So if they struggled or not, it's smooth. But we got to get the Kings out anyway.

Most definitely, most definitely, I gotta figure out. I can't remember his name. He went to Arkansas, he got the alopecia.

You don't got no heir wash George Washington. Yeah, I think he's gonna be a rotational player this year for Boston.

Man.

I was watching him in the preseason and he kind of fit what they got going on.

Really good defender, athletic. Yeah, he finished every they played. Most definitely the second game, the doublehead we got t Wools versus Lakers. Man before they we talked about whether it happens in the game. I saw Ken Griffy Junior talked yesterday about him and his pops attended the game to Honnor Browne and Lebron's first time we ever had to follow some combination NBA, which we've heard for the last two years about this possibility.

I think them being their attention for this is far. Oh that's hard. That's historic.

Man, that's hard, even though it's a totally different dynamic. But because both of them was raw, they sport most definitely, But you know, Brian still got to prove so. But that's dope that they embracing that Ken Griff. You're a real one for that. Yeah, that's hard. And Brian is like, that's his favorite baseball player ever, so that makes sense. That's dope now, that makes sense for sure.

But getting the window she was, she was getting duble Knight, how you feeling, Tea. I'm gonna go with the Lakers.

Man, It's gonna be a lot of fun in the bill that night.

Yeah, Briannie gonna get in. He might go about twelve.

Points minutes. Okay, so you're gonna go twelve minutes. Shout out to j Reddick. The trial begins today. If you are head coach Lakers, it is pressure from day one.

I don't think so.

I think so not for him, bro, how they approached this like, you know, shout out of d hem me.

But that relationship different.

Yeah, really got away with the people like it's like you can do no wrong. I heard jj Ready say ship. I seen him do all types of stuff at Duke and some reason we still seem to rock with Yeah.

Bro, JJ red was a demon in college.

One of the most hated players of all time, and he was cold, super cold, but still rock with him.

So it was at Duke tax too because we were favorably. That was before Jabari Parker, before everybody wasn't so fond of Duke like that, but they ready put up numbers.

Yeah, JJ redy gonna have more grace sugas him and Brian got that real friendship. Y'all saw the pie for the little you know, for the few episodes we saw, they've been putting this together.

Bro.

Brian is strategic, Bro. So like, Bro, this is how I wanted.

We saw what's the starting five at the beginning in the first episode, Bro, I was like, I hate this ship already, So I don't think he got that same.

Energy with j J Ready this brobe it could labor with everything.

Yeah, it's a vibe.

No, it's pretty chill over there probably right now.

Most definitely man love to shot the NBA season off that way. Listen, we gotta talk about some of our legends. Man, they're getting up there in age. You got high years in the league for Lebron, obviously, Curry and Durant.

Are we you know what I'm saying, approaching the end of an era?

I don't think so we got.

Two more to good, two more years for our ears over with there. I grew up in and played in two more years.

Two more years. You don't get stepped.

Donna play like three more years Bron, Bron got two left, Kad probably got like three or four.

Who retires first out all of them? Bron?

I think so he ain't got too bro.

What if in another world, Lebron I'll play everybody we just mentioned, it's possible.

I mean, if he played a forty five, I'm gonna I'm gonna start like questioning stuff for bring.

Up allegations because it's just not I mean, he's.

Not normal, yeah, forty five, but he kid numbers can play to forty five.

I'm saying he's still playing like this at forty five.

If you averaging twenty at forty five, now, if he averaging thirteen and five and five, I'll be like, all right.

Well, Brian started averaging thirteen I think he go, he's gonna throw the shoes up.

Lebron is never gonna have to start two points. I think once once it gets hard for Lebron to score twenty. I can see Lebron not being in the league anymore. I can see Lebron retiring after next year.

Like help Bronnie with his first year play the second See if Bronnie was that kind of guy, it's something good gonna happen.

So we ain't waiting on Bryce. Bryce got to figure it out.

If he waits till Bryce and it happens the way it happened with Brownie and Lebron is undefinitely it's.

Forty five, he'll be Bryce should be there, he'll but he can do a year of college and he'll be there.

I just don't see. I'm not hating on their family. I just Bryce making to the league off when done the fixes that?

Yeah, Like Bryce go to the league. Bronnie all American McDonald's.

You know what I mean? You can see, all right, we can work with Brian.

We got a little bit more to see, Lord, but you still got two years Cane or something, I don't know what senior this year, he can't.

Be he a senior this year. Oh well yeah, if you already committed to du Cane.

I mean, I don't know where you're going.

Yeah, we're probably what happening in fact checks about that, jameson Listen, listen the play running back at USC bro passed that on the court.

You know what I mean, he couldn't play how he was supposed to. How to get this, you know, I had to hit the chamber. I'm fully healthy. I'm gonna go rock out. I'm gonna bring another five.

Star with me.

Listen. That's a lot of work for Lebron organized we shall see. Listen.

Also, we get to return to John morant Man got the new sneaker saying the team looking good. I've seen him in the preseasons pass that everybody. Look, it's good against past the preseason, So I don't know how much that helps. But look, I think the Grizzlies should be back in contention for you know what I'm saying, doing some make some noise in the West. I don't know if I can put them top four, but I can put them right outside of that window for sure.

Top four.

I don't think they right there at four.

I think they're probably maybe five on now, which I don't think is disrespecting the West, because it West got some heavy hitters.

They can they can compete, you, bro, they can compete.

I'm excited about the Grizzlies.

I think they got the perfect team smart Desmond Band smart at the three, smarter as the three, and they got my dog Jaron Jackson at the four and big exact d at the five. Or they might play smart guy with the hops towards Achilles.

But he's back now Georgia Chillies.

Yeah, he had got injured. Man, it's my bad Joff not knowing not Clark Clark.

There we go. They might play Clark at the five mm. That'd be that'd be very interesting. I mean the way that they play, just the pace. I watched the offense a lot of preseason.

They moved the ball a lot, and when you got good ball moving space, you got, obviously looking off.

The bench, a capable shooter with des Band.

Joh gonna do what y'all do, man, And I think a lot of people forgot how good John Morant was, and he's gonna mind a lot of people.

Getting Jared Jackskill have a better year than he did last year too.

Because he need the entire team. Bro, they played like eighty five players in the gridges last year. Injuries decimated that team last year.

For sure.

That makes no noise.

But Zach Edy is a difference maker.

I think a lot of people, you know, second guests them picking him that high and then think he could be a capable NBA player after watching the preseason and see how he moves, He's gonna be perfectly fine in the NBA.

But I don't know what they what shot they gave him because he wasn't moving like that Purdue. He was running the floor like a rapture for sure. So if he doing that, yeah, they would be they would be a scary team for sure.

Well, you know, it's a little bit different when he had the point guard, so he had I don't know if that's quite all Americans, but he got job.

Yeah, a little bit different, you know, it is a little bit different.

But I'm saying, like they still brain and the Braiden Smith is still fast faced square at Purdue mostine, just seeing him on the rof, like, I was just like, dang, I don't I didn't see that in college.

So no, in fact, he's definitely playing at a different pace. Yeah, An look a little more athletic too. It's dunks and stuff, but he's more than capable for sure.

Most definitely just talking about jaun Sus getting that bad, you know what I'm saying. The Magic They going back to that next step.

This year.

A really respectable scene. I mean, I thought they weren't last year, but there's not a lot of people.

You know, you got on them colors today. That yellow a little off, but they're gonna be They're gonna be better than them. This year for showing up.

Is crazy.

Caramel College is nasty at last, not least. Okay, see your guys like Bill to win Man.

Yeah, for sure, Man gonna have them boys Rock and Check don't have a hell of a year.

They got a good team over there.

Listen, man, when Hardston gets back, they are going to be a problem.

Yeah.

That was a great pick up as long.

As Yeah, I think he's a couple of weeks I imagine. I mean, I wouldn't rush it because obviously it's the same thing that had last year. He was a pickup, so they can keep the ball going to it once they integrate him in. Him and chick at the four and five to close out games. You're not gonna rebound them. Defensively, They're gonna be crazy, especially if you got Lou Doord at the three.

Come on, man, or the problem. Bro, you can't score on that team.

Blue Door be locking it up too.

Yeah.

I just think they were scared of the Timberwolves last year when they played.

Them like it was just too big.

Yeah, they was terrified of them.

If there was one team in the West that mashed up with them perfectly, it was them. Unfortunately, because if they would have played Denver, I think it's a different situation they've been played.

They just mashed up with the Park.

Like you said, the size Avangas was definitely not in their favorite situation.

Listen, man, we got a lot going on.

Well, I want to talk about last night, be hearing very five buckets.

Who was getting to it? Man?

Go to Lamar Jackson.

Man, I told you my boy could have had six, so they called one back, but he was he was doing this thing. I think he's gonna get that MVP again this year though. And I see the Raves five and two now, Yeah, Bro, they they special.

Bro.

It's crazy that everybody was talking crazy after the first two is they was scared about the Ravens, my.

Boy Kodak Black. It was out of pocket.

And what's crazy about it is Joe Burrow gets the benefit of starting off trash because they said the season he always goes crazy.

But I'm like, w Lamar Jackson. Never get that grace. You know why, well we know why.

But it's crazy that the two time MVP still has to act like he has to prove himself with a lot of more quarterbacks don't have his accolades or stats or accomplishments, and they give them a pass.

I think that is crazy. Yeah, but that comes with that when you at the top, you know what I mean. If Pat Mahomes was ever start off like that, they'd come to him too. They had criticize him a little different. So it just comes with me at the top. That's what they say.

What they like.

Listen, he got a running make because Dereck Henry.

Man, he's filthy. Come on, man, that eighty one yard touchdown was so crazy.

And to the safety that stopped that touchdown, I got to be forever with you because you messed up one of my legs.

Dogs.

Yeah, I needed that. I also want to give a verified bucket to my boy, Michael Pittman. You know what I mean, one of five players to have one hundred touchdowns within the first living.

Favor his career.

So you get a verified bucket even though y'all took the ail. My boy, you do your.

Thing, go jacket whenever he ready.

I want to get my verified bucket to the w NBA Players Association.

They opted out at their last agreement.

A lot of times we get on here and we talk about, you know what I'm saying, the business aspect of stuff. We kick in the backs of the NFL players, NBA players for what they sell these association agreements or whatever. The fact that they say, Okay, we're going to take a stand against this and we're trying to upgrade everything.
