Welcome back to Good Follow. I am the Kid Juju Gotti, joined by my sister Trista Crick, as always. How you doing today, sis?

00:00:23

I'm feeling good, Juju. I'm feeling righteous.

00:00:26

Yeah. Ooh, righteous. Salute to the Jumpstones out there. You got to dig it. What's been going on on the west side?

00:00:33

Oh, well, I'm just watching the Chicago Sky do all the things that I knew the Chicago Sky would do. And so as much as I hate to besmirch players that I enjoy watching— yeah, are, you know, we, we give our love and our shout out and our encouragement to Rekia Jackson, and she, she rehabs. And of course, we knew Skylar Diggins juju is not about the BS. And if there's BSing to be had, she's gonna let you know about it. And I tried to tell the world, this is what you're gonna get if you don't get your house in order. And they didn't get their house in order.

00:01:09

Yeah, you can't invite over Mr. Clean if you got smudges and dust bunnies everywhere. It ain't gonna work. Whole time Mr. Clean there, he gonna be tooting his nose up like, mm-hmm. I'm good. I don't want no food. I'm good. I saw a roach earlier.

00:01:24

Like, if somebody— if you came over and somebody's, uh, somebody's place was filled with used plastic utensils in their drawer, you'd be like, all right, I'm gonna see myself out.

00:01:37

But yeah, bro, speaking of it, let's get straight into it. Jeff Pagliarca and them boys, man, they got, they got a little situation on their hands right now with Skylar and Tyler. Tyler finally responded-ish as he took to the streets and said this, had this to say: None of us are complacent at where we're at. Emotions are high, frustration is high, but we're all on the same page. Does it say— take it away.

00:02:10

Um, we're on the same page, so why did Skylar have this to say after the loss if they're on the same page.

00:02:18

I had more maturity and more leadership on and off the floor. He's— players on the floor from the staff as well. More connectivity. It was just versus one team, I'd understand that. But now it's been struggles first. That's a trend of ours. Disappointed, it really is. It's frustrating. We're not gonna— the game's ain't gonna slow down. The team's gonna keep getting better and better around it, so You know, we got to figure out how we're going to turn this quarter in here, but it's been an extremely frustrating experience. I had one just on the half-court offense and execution of that. That's a Tyler question. Ask Tyler.

00:02:58

So if you guys are on the same page, we don't have to ask Tyler. We can just ask you because you guys are reading from the same page, the same book, right?

00:03:04

I think they in the same book, but I think my sister is in, uh, Job and my brother is in Ecclesiastes. They got the same goal. They want to win the game. They want to avoid Judgment Day when it comes. But, uh, they got different ideas on how to get there.

00:03:21

I think it's Old Testament, New Testament, you feel me?

00:03:26

I think it's just more the same, bro. Kennedy is gonna Kennedy. Skyler is gonna Skyler. The Sky are gonna Sky. This is more of that to me than what's going on right now. Because with Rekia being down though, excuse it a little bit.

00:03:43

It does.

00:03:45

I'm judging them, but I'm not, kind of, because that was a big chunk, especially you line her up next to Azurah.

00:03:50

And then Azurah is talking about how easy it is to rebound, and our girl I think is only getting 4 or 5 rebounds a game, fam. Salute.

00:04:02

Salute to the food truck. We are, you know, we got your back. If anybody ever think about harming you, Azurah, we coming at them. But girl, my sister, we need to block out. We need to crash them boards.

00:04:15

We need to crash them boards. And meanwhile, Juju, you were in Atlanta and the head coach crashed out, bruh.

00:04:24

My boy Sidney— look, I'm gonna tell you, I'm gonna tell you like this right here. Sidney should have got kicked out first quarter. I ain't gonna lie to you. I can't believe he lasted this long. He was talking to the ref about a call she made in the first quarter second quarter. And, um, I'm like, damn, big bro, what was he saying in front of me? He was just cussing out expletive after expletive at the free throw line. And I was like, dang, sis, you gonna let him talk to you like that? I don't know, he wouldn't talk to me like that. And he would look at me like, no, you—

00:04:55

that's, that's real life. You said that?

00:04:57

Yes, because he was talking shit right in front of me. Like, I'm, I'm sitting right here, you know what I mean? Courtside, shorty, you know what I mean? I mean, for foot on the wood. He did pause. But yeah, so I'm hearing everything he's saying, and the whole time I'm hating, like, yeah, I don't like that ref. He wouldn't talk to me like that, ref, if I was you. And then I guess it finally bubbled over.

00:05:17

You got Sidney Johnson kicked out of the game.

00:05:22

I just— I don't think I got him kicked out, but I definitely greased the slippery slope that he was already on.

00:05:28

Yeah, but you can't do that for him to go down that slide.

00:05:33

Right, because— but at the same time, look at my boy though. You can't behave like this no matter what. Coach Barb trying to hold him back. When the police got to come out there, you're kind of tripping, bro. You got to take a couple breaths, bro. You already losing— what, they was losing 25 points? Come on, calm down.

00:05:51

At a certain point, it's not the ref. Listen, you're down 25, your coach is losing his damn mind, he has the police getting rid of him. I don't know how it even happens. I've never seen Someone— he Isaiah Stewarted, right? Damn near.

00:06:07

Look at her, she holding on to him. He fighting off Coach Barb.

00:06:11

He gave her the swim move.

00:06:14

And salute to Coach Barb, she telling him, hey, hey, we got you, big bro, we got you, man. You got— he can't do it.

Meditieren, Yoga, Joggen— nichts entspannt mich. Echt? Mich entspannt meine Steuer total. Steuer? Wie Finanzamt? Die Steuererklärung? Ja, ich habe ganz locker über 1000 Euro zurückbekommen. Hast du geheime Connections? Nö, nur die WISO Steuer App. Wow, und das ist einfach? Klar, die macht fast alles automatisch. Plötzlich fühle ich mich so entspannt. Hol dir dein Geld zurück, tiefenentspannt mit WISO Steuer.

00:07:55

And crashed out. But look, I, I wish Coach would have had that type of energy the next game, uh, when it was time to drop that final play against the Fever. Because my sister Cody, I don't know, she went for that steal. What you thought about that game winner from Caitlin?

00:08:09

Too much gambling for Cody McMahon. I thought that the whole game was chaotic as hell. I thought, you know, Caitlin missing those free throws was very uncharacteristic. I thought, you know, fouling our girl Sonja Citron in the paint with like 8 seconds left to go. Not great either. And then, you know, when Caitlin has the ability to step into a deep 3 with nobody even close to around, open air all the way around, not even a cloud in the sky for Caitlin, she's gonna knock that baby down. So Cody, you gotta just— that play wasn't even drawn up for her. You, you made a gamble and you should have just stuck to Caitlin like White on rice. I think there was a little bit of confusion down there in the paint with the, with the screen, and she didn't follow Caitlin. Then she tried to hedge and try to jump the route, but, but that was just poor defense all around.

00:09:02

Yeah, man, I'd have seen about 4 or 5 State Farm commercials dedicated to letting us know, hey, Caitlin went from the logo. Speaking of cash and doing all the things, man, I now have had to retract my statement another, another, a bit more. Olivia Miles is not only the best point guard in the WNBA, she might be the best point guard in America. The thing— and I know Steph Curry is in there, I know he's there, I know Kyrie, I see Kyrie, but they ain't playing right now. Olivia Miles is the best point guard in the world right now, man and/or woman. You did— ah, salute to Jaylen Branson. You know what, matter of fact, behind Jaylen Branson Olivia Miles right now, because what she doing— I'm thinking, my sis, am I tripping? Has she entered the MVP conversation?

00:09:52

To me, I feel like you have to at least talk about it. No, no, you lost Jess Shepard, you lost Lambman, you lost Natisha Heideman, you lost 4 players that were key to your rotation. The only thing that you added— well, let's be honest, Natasha Howard has been an excellent addition, really, truly awesome for this team. And I don't know why she left the Liberty— I mean, excuse me, the Fever. Yeah, some people say it was about money, but they paid, they paid Mo Billings a lot of money as well. So money, Mo money, Mo Billings, Mo money. Yeah. And, and they could have kept Natasha. Natasha's having a renaissance of a year. But listen, you add Natasha Howard, you add Olivia Miles, and nobody else, and you're the best team in the league. And we don't even have those— we don't even have, uh, uh, our, our girl Dorka back, right?

00:10:43

Big Dorka. Look, Dorka is gonna make a big difference when she come back. You did— that's not being talked about enough. I know we, we expect Queen to come back ASAP, and she gonna make an immediate impact, but having that extra body in that paint and Dorka, you huzz, man, please. I bet— hey, sleep on them if you want to, you're gonna find yourself watching them on the WMA Finals again from the house.

00:11:07

So, so if they're the 1 seed There's got to be an MVP on the 1 seed. Come on now, is this a Candace Parker situation, Juju? It feels like it is.

00:11:15

It is. Olivia Miles MVP, you hear it here first on, uh, The Good Follow. You got to know. But we gotta go to break right quick. Like, coming up, we gonna make our DraftKings picks of the week.

This week we watching the Lynx take on the Aces, and I don't even have to say who I'm watching. You already know I'm watching Olivia Miles. Who you watching, sis?

00:12:44

On the Aces, Juju, for personal reasons and for professional reasons, we have to watch Jackie Young. She's come out of the slumber that is whatever dark cloud was looming over her, and she's now Jackie Young again. And so To me, that's gonna be the difference maker for the Aces. But who you got in this game?

00:13:02

I mean, one team has the MVP and the other team has A'ja Wilson. I think I'm gonna go with the MVP and I'm gonna go with the Lynx.

00:13:13

I'm going with the Lynx too, Juju, on the road at Michelob Ultra Center.
