You're an NBA player, and you always go tights on socks. Bro, you're weak as hell, bro.

00:00:05

What do you need that for?

00:00:07

You got to be, Oh, baby, it needs to be warm in his legs before the basketball game. You need to warm your legs up. You got a little onesie on underneath there. Exactly, man. It's breaking news though, across the land, since we're in other topics a little bit. Fetty Wap. My brother Fetty Wap is free. Salute to Fetty Wap being free, man. Free Fetty Wap until it's backwards. And guess what? Fetty Wap free. Congratulations, my boy. Let's get to work.

00:00:41

Wow. Fetty Wap. I honestly think, Juju, there is almost no artist that defined my later college years than Fetty Wap.

00:00:52

Yeah.

00:00:53

The amount of hits that he had that sounded eerily similar to one another, but yet still felt individual and different and unique.

00:01:03

Hard, though. Hard. Right. I want you to be my again, baby.

00:01:07

Be my again, baby. I know this lifestyle is driving you crazy. Come on, G.

00:01:16

I cannot see myself without you. But yeah, look, afraid of while at home, so prepare yourself just to get some flames soon, probably. But enjoy your family first. I don't like when an artist first come home and get right to the work. Enjoy your family, folks that miss you, you did. So outside of that, brother, let's get to this basketball. Man, oh, man, last night, the most breaking news, the most current thing I saw happen myself was Ant Man over WMDBE for the game winner against the Spurs last night. Did you catch that one?

00:01:48

Where do you put Ant in clutch scorer?

00:01:54

Right now in the league, he top five, and he ain't number five. I know that. I know that for sure.

00:02:01

So it's probably what? Number one, even though he's injured right now, because he's probably the most clutch playoff scorer in the history of the game, that's Tyrese Halliburton.

00:02:13

For sure. And then I'm going Jalen Brunson.

00:02:16

Then you're going Jalen Brunson. And then you're going Shay. And then I'm going, my boy, you feel me? Then you go Jokich.

00:02:22

Got to know.

00:02:23

And then probably Ant.

00:02:25

Yeah. So maybe he is the five.

00:02:28

I think people forgot a lot about Tyrese Halliburton. What we saw from Tyrese Halliburton last playoff is like, we'll never see anything like that ever again. So he may be the most clutch scorer in the history of all of basketball.

00:02:42

But it's like, where were you when that ball hit the back of the rim in Madison Square Garden? And for 4. 2, it felt like for 10 minutes, New York celebrated. And then that ball dropped right in the damn hole, bro. You had to be there. It's one of the things you got to tell your children a lot. But speaking of that, also, to run what we were talking about earlier in your Ducks, Go Duck Bucks. Indiana having a spectacular year as a sports town. You got Indiana starting the year off with the M. A. Halliburton, my boy. Again, that guy in seven still is going to always live with me. And then you got Kelsi Mitchell going down from cramps in the finals against the Vegas. And then they found a quarterback, finally, in Indiana Jones. And now here we are, the Hoosers kicking ass.

00:03:36

That's one hell of a heater. And they hosted the WMBA All-Star Game.

00:03:41

Come on now. Come on. Go Indiana this year so far.

00:03:45

What a moment for the city. What a calendar year for them.

00:03:49

Yeah, but I think you're right. I forgot about them. My bad.

00:03:52

So yeah, Ant Edwards. I think I'm going to need to see this in the playoffs. But incredible making that he's had a few of these game winners this season. They're starting to figure it out. I don't know. I was talking to a friend about this yesterday. It's really hard to build a roster, Juju, because on one hand, the Wolves were built to beat the Nuggets.

00:04:18

Yeah, they were.

00:04:18

And not the Thunder. And we don't know who they're going to see when. And if they have to see them both, they're probably not going to the finals. So maybe you of all hopes, that the Thunder can get eliminated early, earlier than you see them. But it's just hard to build a roster right now that you can rely on to beat every single team in the West. But they look really good right now. You want to play the clip, Ms. Rebecca.

00:04:46

I don't know what to do right now because he's so tall, bro. He take away everything. He take away the layup, jump shot, and he got good feet. He can move. So yeah, he's one of a kind. Yeah, man. That's Anthony was on how it feels to go up against Victor Wimbayama in the clutch. You got the ball and you see Wimbayama, you're like, Oh, damn. Here we are. It's like that meme. Yeah, that's me in the video right there. I wonder how I got here type of shit. You feel me? What you thought about him in the clutch? I mean, of course, he hit the shot, but like you said, for the playouts, I think he has proved himself as much as he could. Like you said, they was built to beat the damn Nuggets, and then here come the thunder, like the damn globe trochters out of the world win. You feel me? So I think that once they get Ja Morant, you feel me? Once they get another scorer over there and start playing out on games for real, then we're going to be I got to talk, have a real deal conversation.

00:05:47

Ja Morant.

00:05:49

Come on now.

00:05:50

That is a fascinating addition to a very exciting, athletic, Powerful Minnesota Timberwolves roster. What are you giving up? Are you giving up like- I'm keeping Jay McDaniels.

00:06:08

I'm keeping Jay McDaniels. I'm keeping Nas Reid. I'm keeping all the dogs. I'm sending them back. Look, the Memphis, don't you love Mike Conley Jr? Ain't that your homeboy? Come on, man. Welcome home. You feel me? Terrence Shannon Jr. You remember his jersey was upside down? That was cute and adorable. He can get you some points off the bench. You feel me? Or start him. There you go. My boy, even though he's very fired, Rob Dylan. You got to cross over his highlight tape, go crazier than most people's ever's. You can go ahead and catch your Memphis Grizzly's jersey, my brother. And you could take a third-round pick from next year. Give us Ja Morant, man. Stop playing.

00:06:47

Free 12. Did you say third-round pick?

00:06:51

Or we can go back to what we were doing. You all don't bother with us. We're trying to do you all a favor. But I still like, whatever. Even if they have to give up, realistically, though, if they have to give up a piece, I would prefer that piece not be Jaden McDane's.

00:07:07

Or Julius Randall. Julius Randall has been great for the Timberwolves. You heard what Anne said? I was just about to Give it up to Juh. That's me on a day to day basis on this podcast. Just give the ball to Ju.

00:07:21

Never a bad idea. But moving on, though. Also over the weekend in the headlines, my boy Dennis He caught a fine from the NBA in a suspension for, what, two games or so for a confrontation, attempting to strike a player. And my boy pulled up and said, attempt in my ass. I laid hands on the boy. And we all know the boy he talking about, Luka Donchik. Did you see that one, sis?

00:07:53

I saw the attempting to strike, but I did not see him say No, I put mitts on him. Where is that at?

00:08:04

We got a couple of tweets.

00:08:05

Oh, he said attempting. There we go. Attempting, big eye emoji, laughing emoji.

00:08:11

And people who know it because the report was already reported. My brother, me and El Hassan, when it first went down, he was one of the people reporting that, Oh, bruh, got hands laid on him in the hallway, but hey, they broke it up and it wasn't too much about nothing. But bare minimum, bruh, got slapped. You know what I mean? Don't quote me. It's reckless speculation. I'm just going off the reports. Reports said, bruh got slapped. You feel me? That's why Dennis Schroeder is saying, attempting. Yeah, right. Because what else that mean? Even though this is a keep it real, gone wrong situation, what you doing, bro? You're snitching on his damn self.

00:08:46

We know, Juju, Dennis Schroeder turned down a four-year, $84 million extension.

00:08:53

Yeah.

00:08:55

And that's what caused all this, because then he had to take a one-year, $2. 64 million dollar deal, which I'm not a mathematician, but that's a lot more per year than 84 divided by four. By a lot. Ease up. It's like a one-tenth of it. And he even joked about himself fumbling the bag. And so he is happy to kiki about it on his own terms. But, Luca, you're not about to talk about me and my pockets on the same team that you play for.

00:09:31

There we go.

00:09:32

I did you a favor. You wouldn't even be on this team if I would have signed that contract, sir. What? Secondarily, that's why he put myths on Luca to begin with and said, I didn't attempt it. I slapped him up because he doesn't care about a fine. If he cared that much about money, he would have done the four years 84. What he cares about is respect. You're not about to disrespect me And this happened in December, Ju. At the end of December, that's when the clip went viral. Dennis Schuster said, I'll see you again.

00:10:07

Once you're in the game, let's keep the game the game. It's just like rapping, bro. If we're going to rap, you're going to talk about it and let go, bro. You want to go bar for a bar, I promise you, you do not want this work, Drait, Kendrick style. You did. But as soon as you take it from the rap bars and take it to the streets, now you start talking about my family, you're crossing the line like, Hey, man, You don't want to go there, bro. Trust me, bro. Especially with Dennis Schroeder. My boy grew up in Germany, man. My boy grew up facing all that ridicule. I don't want to make it like this, but here we are. Here I am on the hill, on the sermon hill. Dennis Schroeder grew up in Germany, and you know what it's like being a little Black kid growing up over there. Come on now. You done faced them all. You done heard them all. Okay, how dark am I? Yeah, okay.

00:10:58

That's That's a direct response or a direct conversation around the racism present within German culture.

00:11:07

You feel me? Exactly. Because he spoke out about it. He spoke out about it when they won the Euro Cup, when he won the MVP. He was like, Man, growing up over here, man, going through how I went through it, and now being the MVP of the Euro Cup lead, man. He was like, Bro, this is incredible. I'm not saying that at At any point I feel sorry for Dennis Schroeder. I'm just saying, Run up, get done up. If I ever heard a person, myself, you did. Come on now.

00:11:39

It means more the respect and integrity of him as a man. You're not I have to talk about my pockets and also clown me on my decision making in the middle of the game. And this is late. Hey, fat boy, you're late. This is a three-year-old clown. Get some new material.

00:11:58

Right. But yeah, that's I'm not going to make it even worse, bro. If you're going to come at me, come at me with some humor, man. You're going to be like that to me, bro. At least be funny, bro. You're coming over there, oh, shit, bro. You finna get scooped. Hey, Luca. Hey, watch out, Luca. Matter of fact, I'm going to slap you. And that's exactly what he did after the game. Moving on, though. In the trade- Did he do anything back? Come on. You already know. Look, reckless speculation. But I suspect Luca probably understood where he was And he was real present with all the factors around him when that happened to him. That's all I'm going to say, because I didn't hear nothing else. We ain't hearing about Lula. Schruta getting slapped. Moving on, bro. We talked about the last podcast, and here we are. Michael Porter Jr. Reported to be for sure, definitely moved before the trade deadline. I think He thriving right now, bro. I think my boy living life, bro. He probably got them by the boat loaves right now. He probably getting out of work, going straight to where he loved to go in Brooklyn.

00:13:10

He the man right now, bro. I like him there in Brooklyn, but I understand Man, they see that talent. How you feel about this one? Where do you think...

00:13:18

I think it's a smart move for Brooklyn because you're not building your franchise around Michael Porter Jr. He is a nice piece.

00:13:30

Okay, hold on now. Just to play devil's advocate. I'm sitting at a table right now when it says, Convince me that Michael Porter Jr. Is not worth running a damn franchise behind.

00:13:43

Well, first and foremost, those quotes, Juju, you can't build a franchise around somebody whose brother went to jail for manipulating markets. Okay, here we are.

00:13:52

Number two. Me, to use him, Michael Porter Jr. Too far.

00:14:00

You're guilty by association. Number two, you can't have a guy who is playing Andrew Tate highlights for girls that he's thinking about dating and won't even put up half the rent. That's more like it. Number three, I think his whole spot Line is fused.

00:14:17

Well, okay. See, this is what I understand about the world right here. I wish more people would do this. I was wrong. You know what I'm saying? My sister just said, Prove me wrong right in front of a national audience. And you know what? I admit it. You're right, sis. Damn it. What was I thinking? You might be right, but they're saying that they're going to trade or they're one of the trade destinations. I have one more. Okay, here we go.

00:14:44

He also has a brace on his leg that they give the victims from strokes to teach them how to walk again. And he has to wear that every single NBA game.

00:14:55

No, it's like when you already getting jumped in the club, now hit on a brother with the Timberland. Okay, brother, I get it. I'm jumped. I'm kicked. My ass is kicked. What else do you want from me? They saying that he might be traded. One of the destinations is the Warriors. Now, insert him on them Warriors team. What do you think of... I mean, what are we talking about then for the warriors chances?

00:15:24

I like that Juju because as a third piece, he's really good. He has a third piece. He's a, well, a fourth piece, but he can be a third piece depending on how his health is. He is a really good shooter. And what we're seeing for him in Brooklyn, all jokes aside, is he's become a good creator. But he's able on the ball to get other guys involved. And at his size, at 6'10, to be able to be a 40 % pure shooter off the dribble and off the catch, to make decisions like he's never really had the ability to showcase those skills because he played with Joker and he played with Jamal Murray. Now you almost get a new look at what he's able to do, which really is helpful when Steph plays off the ball as much as he does.

00:16:11

He going so crazy. I'm like, I like this version of him, but at the same time, you're right, bro. This can't be his ultimate destination as far as him as a hooper, especially in his mindset, unless he got a whole bunch of help on the way to Brooklyn or he just liked to be in this man right here, not concerned with winning. I don't think that of my boy, no matter who his brother is, my sister. Moving on. Anthony Davis is hurt again. Mr. Glass, Mr. Bandages, Mr. Knee Wap, Mr. Fetty, Knee Wap, Mr. Enkel, Mr. 3 to 6 Weeks, Mr. Headband, Mr. Unibrow, Mr. Head What do you got? A Baby fro now? Mr. Kareem out doing your bar-looking ass.

00:17:07

He doesn't get enough hate for that Baby fro. To be honest, it's terrible. There's enough to talk about where you don't need to hang on it.

00:17:19

It's so much, yeah. We can flame him so bad, yeah.

00:17:23

The goggles don't get enough hate. The Baby fro that's not lined up right doesn't get enough hate. And because the goggles are on his face now, the eyebrows don't get enough hate. Is that him in a frijili box full of peanuts?

00:17:37

Exactly. They put that boy in packing peanuts, boy. I'm answering Serena route. They said, But that boy out again. Fragile. He's answering Serena route. Bro, imagine Anthony David, bald head, though, right now, looking at this picture. Imagine him bald head with no headband, no beard. That's Kareem out, do as your boy. I promise to God. What looks just like the captain, He does.

00:18:01

Didn't they show... Ms. Rebecca, scroll up. They showed all of his injuries above that?

00:18:06

Yeah, bro. This year type- This year, abdomen injury, adductor injury, eye injury, thigh injury, groin injury, schmoing injury, Achilles injury, leg injury, calf injury, hand ligament injury.

00:18:22

It's only 30 games into the season.

00:18:25

Bro, Anthony Davis, get ready to learn Atlanta Hawke and Ees because this shit is over with, bro. I was wrong. I thought they was going to try to build and have some hope. I love Kyrie Irving. That's my dog. But this ain't looking like... I'm shipping him away for recher, bro.

00:18:43

Give me rechercher. You're not getting Reassure. You're not getting reassure.

00:18:46

I can't get recher with AD now? I have traded Luca Dantzis for AD, and I can't get recher? That's messed up, bro. That's fucked, bro. Hell, no, bro. You all got to give me a reassure, I don't know. Just principle, bro. Come on, please. Help me, please, man. Please. Atlanta Hart, please. Listen, help me, please.

00:19:08

Come on, listen, help me, please. No, you are broken. He's out the rest of the year, and he wants an extension. I'm going to need something else, like a second-round pick. I'll give you a CJ McCollum.

00:19:23

No, hell, no. You can't even start a bid in there. That's just unfair, right? Start over, bro.

00:19:29

I'm going to give you I'll give you Clint Capella and C. J. Mccollum.

00:19:33

That's disrespectful, bro. For AD, that's still AD. He going to give you. Look, this is what you got to do. If you're a team out there and you're watching this, listen here. This is what you do with AD. You get AD on your team and you sit his ass down all season long. I'm talking about you pull them out for the Christmas games, the Saint Patrick's Day uniforms, and you put them out at the Outstar Weekend. Other than that, bro, pull up on us in the playouts. Imagine, Anthony Davis' whole energy going towards one playoff run. I promise, he don't even need to practice all year. Just come over here, bro. Play for the Celtes.

00:20:11

We'll give you Chris Dax, poor Zingas back like a bad penny. Oh, man. And we'll give you CJ McCollum, and you can tank your way into, hopefully, AJ DeBança. But we don't want... Here's the thing. I don't even want AD for that because I'm not paying him. He's always in street clothes. He is bones of glass, skin of paper.

00:20:37

Unfortunately, you're right, bruh. The besmircher wins again. Ms. Rebecca, let's go to A-D is a walking boy stop, man. Damn.

00:20:48

A-d is a walking boy stop, by the way.

00:20:55

Right, bro. With them damn tights, bro. Stop wearing the tights, bro. You've been wearing tights for eight years. He doesn't get enough hate for the tights either, Juju. I feel like tights is weak as hell. If you're an NBA player and you always go tights on socks, bro, you're weak as hell, bro.

00:21:11

What do you need that for?

00:21:13

You had to be, Oh, baby, it needs to be warm in his legs before the basketball game. You need to warm your legs up. You got a little onesie on underneath there. Exactly, man. He look like you're wearing stockings, bro. You look like a ballerina, bro. I'm I'm going to be honest with you, man. You look like a damn ballerina, bro. My bad, what we got.

00:21:36

Is Randall Wendy Stairdown?

00:21:38

Yes. Yes, sir. Bro, look how Randall looking at his ass. Looking Looking them up and down. Bro, get your hane ass away from me, man. Hey, man, somebody... You all going to get your homeboy, man. He keep looking at me crazy, bro. The head around with you is Julius Randall. You know I mess with you. When she's looking at this man up and down like that, bro, you look like your hane, man.

00:22:05

Juju, have you seen the show Mayor of Kingstown?

00:22:09

Oh, yeah. You got to know. And that finale, spoiler alert, that finale, Please.

00:22:15

Crazy. Why is Julius Randall licking his goddamn lips and putting his hands together like that? He is not just looking at Wemby like he wants to take a shiv made out of a bit pen, but he's also looking like he thinks Wemby's a bit of a snack as well.

00:22:38

Exactly, bro. If I'm Wemby, I don't know what's coming from this side of the room, bro. But you need to get off it right now, bro. I'm finna go in your shit, bro. That's all I know.

00:22:48

Play that clip again. Let's walk through this frame by frame because it's insane.

00:22:56

Because you act like I don't see you seeing me, looking at me. I see you, I'm just not looking over there at you right now. Like, bro, come on, bro. What you doing, man? Stop, bro.

00:23:08

He's like, What's up, little mama?

00:23:12

Look at you. Fresh meat. I don't know who was saying anything about some damn meat. But look, bruh. What up, little mama? What up? Hey, yo, to everything you're saying right now, bro, I can't even let that No. Fresh meat is so crazy, bro. We're breaking the barrier today, bro. Hell, no. We can't let fresh meat ride, bro. I'm sorry, bro. Flag on fresh meat.

00:23:47

I didn't say fresh meat. I said French meat.

00:23:50

French meat is it? Bro, that's. Come on, bro. Somehow you made it worse.

00:23:58

I thought it was fresh, too. French meat's amazing.

00:24:02

But Frenchman's no damn amazing. French meat is the biggest time out I've ever heard in my entire life. But Julius Randall is looking just like that, though, bro. He look like he see some French M. I'm like, why are you- Look at his brother's eyes, bro. Hell, no, bro. Look at his brother's eyes, bro. Hell, no, bro. You look like a Satan spawn.

00:24:27

The more you look at it, the crazier It looks, dude.

00:24:31

If this was a picture on the wall, the eyes were moved, bro. The hell you got going on, man? Julius Randall, boy, stop now. God, take. He's going to take. Stop.

00:24:43

The crazy thing, though, and I know we're moving on, the crazy thing is he thinks he's doing something like he's intimidating Wemby.

00:24:50

Exactly.

00:24:51

Like he's the OG in the prison yard, and really, you look like the one that's like...

00:24:59

Yeah, it looks It looks like a heated rivalry is what I was going to say.

00:25:03

Yeah, it's looking a little heated rivalry right now.

00:25:08

I think he look like Birdman and Gator Boots with the pimp-out Gucci suit. But, hell, no, you're looking just like It's looking like if we pan down, we can see them touching shoes. Moving on, man. What we got next, bro.

00:25:26

Okay. This is, I believe, during an NHL game, the Peewees are playing, and I think we... Let's roll this. It's going to be self-explanatory.

00:25:40

The little kids are playing hockey, except they're not playing hockey. They're just fighting each other. Where are the fathers? Bro, broken home to individual kids. Oh, I see. These kids, no home training. Thuggery. These kids resorted to thuggery. Bro,. Like, out your side. Where the hell is the referee? Once a kid go to the ice, you got to come save the kid. You can't just let the kid get drunk by six kids with Brazer blades on their feet.

00:26:19

All right, so it's this one blue kid, right? He gets moped up. He's doing some good stuff, okay? Then he gets moped up.

00:26:26

Look, the referee.

00:26:27

Now we have a gang jump.

00:26:30

Right, bro. Come on. You can't gain. What are we watching here is my thing. Where are the referees? Once a kid go down, you're supposed to pull up on them and be like, All right, enough. They said, No, keep it going. Who is in charge?

00:26:44

Yeah, I think you're both looking at it all wrong. I think this is a new sport here. I think I'd like to be the new Dana White of what is this kid, Lord of the Flies kid fighting?

00:26:58

He is mauling, bro.

00:27:02

Bro, what is this? For real, can you... Bro, what the hell is it?

00:27:07

It's a minute long and there's no ref in sight.

00:27:10

Like, Rebecca might actually be. No. That's what I'm saying. That's a pomp mode, too, that goal. That goal, that's a pomp Bro, you can't just go up behind somebody, knock them out, and skate away. That's some bullshit, bro. Hell, no.

00:27:21

I'm enjoying this way more than I thought. Little children beating the crap out of each other.

00:27:25

It does get better every watch.

00:27:27

Look how many people are there. This is a full arena at a halftime of a real deal NHL game.

00:27:34

They're locked in, too.

00:27:36

Bro. Yeah. If you listen to the spectators, they're loving it, which is just wrong.

00:27:42

Is this Minor League?

00:27:43

I don't understand why Why? Imagine, these little Black kids. But if everybody be arrested off the ice now. Only these folks, ice, fight like this. No more little kids to be out of here. Shackles. Are you kidding me? Parents, gone.

00:28:01

Juju, they'd be worse than arrested.

00:28:03

Why are you kidding, bro? What is happening? What is this world we live in now? This is not a regular video we showing I'm not going to lie, bruh. This is really like a cry for help type.

00:28:21

Episode description

Dennis Schröder is in the spotlight after being fined for allegedly hitting Luka Dončić, and JuJu Gotti and Trysta Krick are breaking down what really happened, why the league stepped in, and what it means moving forward. Was the fine justified, or is this another case of NBA star treatment?

The hosts also dive into Michael Porter Jr. trade rumors, discussing why MPJ’s name keeps popping up in trade talks and which teams could realistically make a move. Is Denver reshuffling, or is this just deadline noise?

Plus, we can’t ignore the viral stare down between Julius Randle and Victor Wembanyama. The moment had NBA fans buzzing — was it intimidation, respect, or just pure competitive fire? JuJu and Trysta react to one of the coldest face-offs of the season. 

Drama, trades, fines, and viral moments — it’s all here on the Alley Oop Basketball Show.
