00:00
Minnesota Timberwolves, they have punched their ticket to the Western Conference Finals.
00:04
Second year in a row that they're going to do that.
00:07
121-110, they win the series in five games.
00:10
Warriors were trying to get close.
00:12
They got it to single digits at one point in the fourth quarter,
00:16
but the Wolves said, no, absolutely not. TNT.
00:20
Just as it looked like Golden State was down.
00:24
Now Anthony Edwards hits a big foot to bring him back in.
00:30
And so, Minnesota.
00:34
Can I just say, because I love doing this,
00:41
Draymond Green is the most overrated player I've ever seen in my life.
00:45
All he ever talks about is how wonderful he is.
00:48
He said he's a great basketball player.
00:51
I'll give him this. He's a good defender.
00:54
He's all NBA defensive team for sure.
00:57
I got no problem with that.
00:58
I'm all in on that.
01:00
But how about this?
01:01
Four of 11.
01:02
One of six from three.
01:04
Three turnovers.
01:05
Six rebounds.
01:08
That just doesn't cut it in big games.
01:11
Okay?
01:12
I score more than him.
01:14
And I'm 60.
01:16
I mean, like, I don't ever shoot four of 11.
01:20
Ever.
01:20
And I, I, I, how many times have I sat here on this show and said, a guy can't shoot?
01:26
How many times have I said, give him the ball, let him shoot all day.
01:29
Cause he's not hitting them.
01:30
He'll hit two.
01:31
He always hits two.
01:32
He'll hit like two shots.
01:34
And everybody thinks he's going to get going.
01:35
And he never does.
01:37
Cause he sucks.
01:38
He is not an offensive player at all.
01:41
He has one skill.
01:42
You know what?
01:43
And that's, that's the way to make a living in the NBA.
01:45
Dennis Rodman, the greatest rebounder I ever saw in my life.
01:48
He made a living rebounding.
01:50
Right?
01:50
And he did nothing else.
01:52
But he's all 75, isn't he?
01:55
He was such a great defender and rebounder.
01:57
He's all 75.
01:59
And green is, you know, that kind of defender.
02:01
But look at that team last night.
02:04
How pathetic.
02:04
I mean, Butler 17.
02:06
That's just not good enough.
02:07
I told you that guy had to have 35, 40 for them to be in this game without Curry.
02:11
Heald sucks.
02:12
He's hot in cold water.
02:14
He had eight.
02:15
And he was all four from three.
02:17
This guy is on and off like a light.
02:20
And Jackson Davis, they always, they never play him.
02:24
Why?
02:24
Cause he sucks.
02:25
He had two points.
02:27
The only guys that showed up again were Kaminga and Podzemski.
02:32
That's it.
02:33
Two guys showed up.
02:35
And they are still blaming the injury to Curry.
02:39
That's their out.
02:40
That's their golden Willy Wonka ticket.
02:41
Oh, well, we didn't have Curry.
02:44
So we were finished.
02:45
Well, the Celtics don't have Tatum and they're winning.
02:49
They went right out and won without him.
02:51
Okay.
02:52
So I don't want to hear it.
02:53
Everybody has injuries.
02:54
Well, let's quickly, since you brought Draymond up, we'll quickly throw him in.
03:01
He says he's still improving at his age.
03:04
One thing I can assure them is every year we will get older.
03:10
Just like every year.
03:11
You'll get older.
03:12
He'll get older.
03:14
He'll get older.
03:15
You don't age, huh, Scott?
03:19
But I don't worry about that one bit.
03:22
Well, you should.
03:24
I feel like I'm still improving.
03:26
I feel like Steph's still improving.
03:27
I feel like Jimmy's still improving.
03:29
As long as you're improving in this league, it'll treat you well.
03:32
So when you stop improving, the bottom falls out.
03:35
And I still think I personally got a lot of room for growth.
03:40
And I'm sure those guys feel the same way.
03:42
So, yeah, I don't worry about that one bit.
03:45
Listen, if they get Giannis, I think they can win a title.
03:50
If they don't get him, they're not winning Shaq, okay?
03:55
They're not winning Jack Shaq with that team they got right there.
03:58
Because we just saw that team right there.
04:01
And I'll tell you another thing.
04:02
And they wouldn't have won with Curry against Minnesota.
04:06
Because Minnesota's flat out better than them.
04:08
Mic drop.
