Transcript of McDaniels vs Jokic FIGHT After 30-Point Blowout + NBA Gets HEATED | Alley Oop 179 New

You might not know this about my sister. She gonna keep 13 chains on no matter what.

Actually, I think the only reason Juju ever met me is he was like, God, is that 75 chains? I actually asked Cameron. He had a big-ass chain on the other day. Like, your neck doesn't hurt with these chains? He goes, nah, Tris, I've been doing this.

Hey yo. Welcome back to the Alley Oop. I am the Kid Juju Gotti, joined as always by my sister Trista Crick. How you doing, sis?

I'm good. I got these new glasses. Juju, what you think of them?

Oh, I like them. I like them. Yeah, I like them. Them hard. You might need to get them in every color they got because I can see once you get that frame that fit the face, it's only up from there. That's why you see me with these guys so frequently. My head's so big. These the ones that fit the best, you dig?

I know when they come out on me, they go out like this on either sides of my head, but I still like them.

It make it hard to make you like, you know what, big money. Let's get straight into it, man. I don't want to start with the, the most, the most hurtful topic, so I'm gonna start with a softball, man. Okay, Lakers versus Rockets, man. Rockets, they, they got them one finally without KD. And without a lot of confidence from anybody in the world, do the Rockets have any shot in hell to come back?

Yo, it could be 2-2 if Jabari Smith wouldn't just be what KD said he was, then they would have won that game. You're up 6, you're up 6 with 16 seconds left.

Yeah, what the hell, right? What the hell is Burton, bro? Like, what though, bro? I was like Not even— I ain't gonna tell you what I was like because I said too many cuss words. Moving forward though, I don't think I've ever had this feeling. If the Rockets come back and win this series, I'm gonna be mad as hell because I don't want to watch them no more. I don't care if they come back, if they win the next 3 games by 60 points each, I don't want to watch them. I'm through with them. I'm done. After I saw Shangun's antics, after I saw Jabari Smith, like you said, throw that game away, and they crashed into each other like a cartoon, uh, on LeBron's shot. But I'm straight on them, bro. Salute to Ime, salute to Iman Thompson, bro. You know y'all my dogs, but at the same time, I'm done. I don't want to watch you play no more. No more dribbles.

No more dribbles. 3 teams we're not really fucking with: Toronto, Cleveland, Houston.

You did. That's the list.

And then a level below but very similar Orlando and Detroit, like, you guys are on the list as well. We're still enjoying it just for the trolling of the Detroit Pistons because you guys already know what time it is in terms of me liking to be right and rooting for my rightness. But you guys are just right there on the cusp of ugly, disgusting, horrific, vomit-in-my-mouth basketball.

Yes sir, man. Speaking of vomit-in-my-mouth basketball, the Phoenix Suns Pack them up, you dig? Even though Lou Dort, you dirty mother trucker. Come on, Lou Dort, you keep hurting our superstars, bro, with the BS, bro. And Jokic hits the deck. He doesn't like it. Neither here nor there. At the same time, Suns, get well soon. Matter of fact, real quick on the Suns, do you think Devin Booker is out of there? Because I think it's about that time for my boy in Phoenix.

I was thinking about this. Yeah, as I was concocting some takes, some general, general basketball takes. I don't think celebrities— I don't think athletes should date celebrities.

Mmm, tell me more, tell me more.

Let's look at all of the athletes currently dating or formerly dating celebrities. Okay, Klay Thompson, decline. Yeah, Brandon Ingram with Glorilla. I think he hasn't hit a shot in this entire 3-4 game series.

I don't know, he had a— yeah, he had a couple shots, uh, Sunday.

He's like 3 for 100.

It was, it was a good 3 though, bro. It was a good 3.

It was a good 3. You've got Devin Booker with the Kardashians. I don't know what time he's been on.

Yeah, zero time.

And Donovan Mitchell had a stinker.

Coco Jones Yeah, yeah, that was bad. And it don't help their reputation either that that game went that way for James Harden and, uh, Don Jones. Salute to the Sheed though, uh, because remember we all got on him for getting chomped off by Dejounte Murray early in the season. We got to give my boy some credit, man, forcing that 8-second violation in the crunch time. Oh, you did?

Wendell Carter and Jalen Duren, Angel Reese. Also declining. Nah, but at the same time, person sample in the league of 450 with not, not sleeping with or dating a lot of celebrities. And I just think if you're a professional athlete, you should go normie.

Yeah, you should go normie on them folks. Well, I think— well, what about Alperen Şengün? I mean, is he dating somebody famous? Because it feel like it, because his ass be stinking up the damn joint.

Stinking. And we love to see it. Somebody asked me, if you were a sideline reporter, what would be the first thing you asked Alperen Şengün if you were unrestrained? And I would say, did you apologize for calling that ref a bitch? Because she hexed you. That's a hex. She got the voodoo doll out and you've been voodooed.

Consider yourself voodooed, my boy.

Consider yourself doodooed.

Well, speaking of doodoo, I hate to do this.

Oh, are you doing this? Are we doing this right now?

Scoot ahead.

This right now, this is what we're doing right now.

The Spurs mounted an epic comeback against your guys. As a matter of fact, I'm gonna let you set it up because I don't want to offend you. I don't want to trigger you by something, saying something wrong. Go ahead, go ahead, do it.

It's okay, do it. Just get it out of the way.

Following— and, and I'm trying to say this the most polite way possible. An ass performance in the second half. The second half didn't even— like, who was that in the Blazers' bodies in the second half? That wasn't the Blazers, that was the Monstars. Remember they took away the talent from Charles Barkley? That's what happened to the Blazers at halftime. Them boys was up at the half. I'm talking about as soon as the third quarter came on, high belt, high belt, high belt. No offense.

If you're up 20, if you ever reach almost 20, I think you should be able to eliminate halftime from that game.

You know what, as a Celtics fan, deal.

I was in the building for that.

Oh my God, bro.

What was on the plane Friday coming back from Miami for Game 3. Saw we were up 14, and then Dylan Harper put on an absolute light show. And I thought that they, they more won that than we lost that. I mean, we definitely lost that, but Scoot Henderson tech in Game 3 really turned things around. I thought the De'Aaron elbow hit to Denny's tooth— he lost a tooth— and somehow Denny got called for the foul. I thought that was really where things turned around. But Game 4, we're up 18. Yeah, 17, down, up 17, up 19 at one point.

Yeah.

And, and then you just let them come out and shoot 4 consecutive threes in a, like, step into them too. Like, just, hey, just have them, you know what I mean? You want to get your rhythm back? Let— we'll just let you, you know. It was champagne-y. Uh, Fox. Castle. Timeout, coach. Timeout.

What are we doing, bro? I wonder what Tiago Splitter halftime speech was, bro.

It had to have been like, doing great, just keep, keep it up, just keep doing what you're doing, right?

He probably went back there, hey boy, y'all boy kicking ass, man. I don't need to say nothing. It's a done deal, right? Let's go kick ass.

Do we even need to come out for the second half? No, he said in the pregame presser, we got way too comfortable and thought we had the game up 15. So if we have it again, we won't do that. And that's what exactly you did. I'm concerned about Tiago Splitter as a coach. The rotations made me very uncomfy. Yeah, Donovan Clingan's not a great matchup for anybody in this series whatsoever. He really should be benched. Rob Williams has been kind of the only saving grace. I thought Denny played a lot more aggressive. Um, I thought Denny honestly got fouled a lot and, and really didn't— even though he went to the free throw like a bunch of the first quarter, I thought he got fouled a lot more than they called it. I thought in general it was just very physical. Um, Drew, you can't— it can't just be Drew, okay? He's like fucking 40.

I mean, if he can't get it done, but it can't be just Drew, bro. It's like, the problem was— the problem was, bruh, Scoot Henderson, my boy. Like, you remember the other day they asked Scoot after the game, when did you know you had it?

I wish somebody would have asked his ass yesterday, when did you know you didn't have it? Yo, Scoot, when did you know you didn't have it?

Sincerely asked that question when I woke up.

That's a great question. If I see him, if we come back for Game 6, which we won't, I'll ask him, which we won't. It's over. The series is over. You know what was nuts was like Wemby in the first half was breaking everything. I was like, oh, we got a bad Wemby game. Yeah, we don't just have a— we don't just have Wemby out, we actually have minutes where Wemby is a negative. This is tremendous. We're— they're missing shots, we're getting out in transition, we're hitting threes. The crowd's going, ah, ah, crowd, ah! Yes! And I tell you what, I'm sitting in there in the media section, all I could do was a little yes because I was concerned. Up 17, up 18, I'm concerned, Juju. I don't think it's enough. I don't think 30 is enough. I don't think 40 is enough. And then Wimby in the second half, block— when they alley-ooped him and he reverse dunked, I had— I literally went to the parking lot.

She said she don't think 40 was enough. Like, damn, you might have been right.

Conse— like 4 consecutive open threes, and everything was wet. It was like that side of the court, everything was wet, and that side of the court, everything— like the rim was bent or something.

Do you see how, uh, Stephon, you know what I mean, went at Denny at the end too? This is how you know the game was in hand. Stephon Castle, bro, why did you do Denny like this, bro? He scored on him and won. Then put the ball in my boy's chest.

Like, disrespectful, mad disrespectful foul.

Put the ball right in that boy's chest, and that was a weak push, Danny. Come on, bro. And then don't get—

don't give him a hard time. His calf's messed up. He didn't have enough— he didn't have enough force off that right leg, and his tooth chipped, bro.

So yeah, get well. I mean, it's over for the Blazers. I, I have no faith in them coming back. If y'all could, I at least— I would want to watch it.

When we were up though, did you see the potential?

I saw it, bro. I was— I had some texts I'm about to send you. I was like, bro, remember we said even with or without Wimby, that first half was looking good.

But we could be up 3-1 right now.

You're supposed to be. You was up a dub in this last game, and he was up, what, 15 the game before that?

Yeah, yeah. No, it's tough. It's tough. You can't— in the playoffs, you cannot let lead disappear. Like, leads disappear. I think that's— I gotta make a note because that's a good point. I think when leads disappearing—

well, she's gonna take a note while during, during the show, bro. We keep it real here at the Alley.

When you let a lead disappear like that, that steals your soul. I honestly think it takes a piece of your confidence every time that happens, and it takes like 6 months to get it back. Yeah, this was just a disgusting display of basketball in the second half, both games.

For the Blazers, and both at the crib, both at the crib in the motor, man. No t-shirts, nothing, just straight belt the ass second halves. But speaking of belt the ass and taking souls, my boy Jaden McDaniels, man, he's— I ain't never seen somebody just take the soul from another team like my boy has done this week, bro. The Timberwolves whooping feet. Like, them boys going crazy on the Nuggets. Like, every single thing that Jaden McDaniels said has happened, come to pass. Ayo, Don Sumo, big 43 points off the bench, off 13 of 17, man.

That's an efficient-ass night, right?

But the sad thing about it, he gonna need them because Dante went down, season-ending Achilles injury. And Ant-Man went down, out for at least multiple weeks. This the playoffs, it's games every couple days. My boy already out weeks.

Juju is the conference final.

Like, now they up 3-1. Do you have any faith in the Timberwolves? Because this is going to be one of the toughest closeout games I feel like in the, in the NBA right now. It's 3-1s everywhere right now, but this one feel a little different because because they down Ant-Man and Dante, even though— ayo, bro, great game, but you're gonna need that same game again. You're gonna, you're gonna have to do that once more or, or something. And then on top of that, um, what's my boy name, uh, Kyle Anderson's of the world, the Ghost of Mike Conley's of the world, hey, Bones, big minutes, but you have to replicate that Not only if you get this win next series too, bro. So do you got faith in them boys moving forward?

I don't, but I do think they close this series out. I don't know that they close it out in Denver. Let's just get it back at the crib. Yeah, yeah. I just think, Juju, that those are sustaining injuries that make it really, really tough. And now you gotta end up playing, uh, literally the number one defense in the NBA in the Spurs. That's a tough, tough matchup. As somebody who has watched them up close, put belt to ass, I mean, you're talking about tremendous players up and down that roster and you're undermanned. Like, you're going to have Mike Conley matching up against who? Who, who is Mike Conley going to be playing up? You're going to put Bones Hyland and Eyo Dusumo in your backcourt against Steph Castle, De'Aaron Fox, Dylan Harper, uh, Champagny.

You got Calvin Johnson.

Yeah, Keldino. Devin Vassell, Wembiyama, the Green, Black and White, Black and Silver Cornet.

Come on now, you feel me? Magic City, Luke, that's what they calling them these days.

Yo, in the building, really quick aside, in the building everybody said let's do it for the strippers. Portland's the home of the strippers, and Luke Cornett said, I rebuke you.

That boy done rebuke the hell out them folks, man. You see though, bro, with Dante DiVincenzo, bro, that's the fourth number zero to tear the Achilles. Achilles is popping off number zeros. I'm changing my number from number zero right now. I'm so sorry.

It should be like the 13th floor on an elevator, right?

Jason Tatum, Halliburton, Dame Lillard, now my boy Dante Hey no no no no no I'm gonna go ahead and change my number to about 7. I'm gonna get by some away from that but at the same time—

23's ever torn their Achilles?

Mm-hmm it's just knock on everything because I don't know what number LeBron is but I don't need that not from this show not from this show but at the same time Timberwolves did get that W though you're proving my boy right and Bro, it was— the vibes was so fire in there the other night, you couldn't help but feel it from the TV. And whenever Mike Conley passed, uh, uh, Jaden McDaniels the ball, he knew for a fact at the end of the game, but 2-3 seconds to go, he knew what he was doing, bro. Jaden McDaniels went ahead and said, 'F it, bro, I'm scoring.' And that's how I feel too. You got a problem with me scoring this, this basket at the end of the game and we up 30? Stop me then. Come play some defense.

Miss Rebecca, you have a question?

Yeah, just I was wondering why Jokic went after him. He went after him because he's running up the score. But also, like, what is he supposed to do? Is he supposed to exactly throw the ball off that? Like, you're an athlete. Like, you got to finish the play. Like, is he supposed to toss it out of bounds? It makes zero sense. Like, tell him.

I think what they wanted him to do was just hold on to the ball and do nothing.

No, nobody's going to do like that. You look stupid. I could.

Like, you just gotta tell them, Miss Rebecca. Tell them, tell them you look stupid.

What? Let me save your dignity. You're up 30 points.

Your dignity is already gone. You lost, you lost by a lot. And you did it when we're on under man. One guy hyperextension, one guy torn Achilles. We got a guy named Ayo treating you like Ayo, right?

Where was your dignity, baby man?

He looked like Joker, looked like a baby man doing that, right?

Where was your antennas and your dignity when Ayo was at 30? And when then he was at 34? And then when he was at 38? You ain't had no dignity then, so I don't want to hear about no dignity now that we finna wax your ass and I'm finna dunk at the end of the game. Play.

That's what we called it. Jaden McDaniels has had one hell of a run, Juju.

Exactly. And then he ran down there to not even have smoke. Look at my boy, you did. What you think he about to do? I'm scoring. I don't give a damn about nothing. I don't respect y'all. Ran down up, boy, you would have thought the Joker was about to swang on my boy. Push him, do anything. He ran up just to play. And get what my boy say, man, I'm gonna yoke your ass, you feel me? Ran down there just to get yoked up by my boy and smiled at all that crazy eyes you were doing with, uh, OKC. Nah, it don't work over here. We don't, we don't believe it. And guess what? At the alley-oop, I'm proclaiming this right now. I no longer believe it, bro. Y'all can joker his brothers and all that to death if y'all want to. I don't believe it no more, bro. I'm not— look at this. Yoke that man up. I'm not saying get suspended, but I'm just saying do more about you. Do anything other than run up on them. Either let it go or do something. Don't run up on me just to be in my face.

They could get suspended. I mean, Joker could get suspended for that. Like, I don't know, but he could easily have been suspended for that.

If anybody gets suspended, it should be him, because none of this wouldn't happen if you ain't run down here like you about to— like he was Ron O'Neal. Look at him, goof ass.

Not only that, it's like it was a gentle layup. It's not like he did a windmill, like slam dunk and was hanging on the rim, you know what I mean?

You just call it a win.

What's it called?

Windmill.

Yeah, yep, now it is. No, no matter what English, it's called a windmill. It's called a windmill.

You know what that was, Juju? That was Miss Rebecca in Maine hearing Juju in Georgia say windmill.

Windmill.

No, I just can't.

That's how Juju Kai says it. Windmill.

Windmill. I say like Dominique Wilkins said. But yeah, man, Joker, you gonna need more people, bro. I don't believe that tough shit no more. Out the window. You and your little brothers, bro. Yeah, you get locked up, cool. Everybody get locked up for BS sometime. At the same time though, Timberwolves in trouble, man. Because if it's any team I wouldn't want to be in this exact scenario, it's the Denver Nuggets, man. So hopefully I can close it out, man. Moving on, bro. You did you see my boy Payne Pritchard, uh, from the— or what is it, the Oregon University? OU?

Yes, University of Oregon.

University of Oregon, man. Another one, bruh. If the clock running down, give Payne Pritchard the ball no matter what, bruh. Pritchard doing a dribble dance, triple top. I trust him more than I trust LeBron in the late game scenario. I ain't gonna hold you. Am I blaspheming?

The only one that I trust more, half-quarterback, yeah, is Steph. Yeah, that's it.

That's tough. That's tough to beat. Yeah, but the Philadelphia 76ers, they got Joel Embiid back, you know what I mean? They had everybody scared before the game, pregame. Uh-oh, it's a bird, it's a plane, it's Embiid. Spank that baby. It came back just to get spanked. What you think about him coming back? Did he come back too early? He shot 20, 20 times. He had a good showing, but that belt was there nevertheless.

Came back, it felt like juju a little too early and a little too late.

I like that.

You know what I mean?

I like that.

Too late for you. I'm sorry. Like, when you see the— you know, we got good Celtics and bad Celtics, and what you got today was elite Celtics. You got Celtics shooting 45% from 3, shot 25 of them joints, 24 out of 53. You're talking about a team that out-rebounded you 51 to 30. Yeah, you're talking about a team that, you know, gave you 11 points off of turnovers. The thing that they really crushed them at, Juju, was, was hitting those 3s. And that's what, that's what truly the Celtics do, right? Like, Sixers 9 for 30. From 3. Celtics, 24 out of 53. I'm gonna shoot 53s, Juju. Sometimes they hit 10 of them, sometimes they hit 30 of them, bro.

Watching these boys play, man, I love them so much, man. But every time they shoot, they be going in. Now they be shooting, I'd be like, no, no, no, no, whatever. No, no, no, I guess. Okay, why you— what?

Okay.

That's how I watch my Celtics.

There was a graphic that I saw, Juju, that I think is applicable to being a Celtics fan as well.

Hold on, go back. No, no, no, no, no, no. What was that? Applicable?

Applicable.

Come on now, big words. My sister using them big words.

It applies here. It applies here. And the graphic is a little blip that says, oh my God, my favorite team plays today, and then a long blip says my life, and then enough, like, or, you know, whatever, something also bad. And then the rest is, oh yeah, a little tiny blip, oh yeah, we won.

Exactly, bro. That's how it be, though, especially watching these boys, man. I'd be about to have a heart attack, but they getting it done. It terrifies me to see what's coming around that mountain when she comes, if the Knicks can beat the Hawks, because I do still think that the Knicks have what it takes to to undermine these Celtics. You did. But neither here nor there. Salute. Also salute to the Knicks. They got the job done. We made fun of them for putting down them 2 games in consecutive tie row, but they got it done. And after the game, they got them some Magic City wings, man. Salute to them.

Yeah, they did. And that's, you know, I think Magic City should sell their lemon pepper wings, uh, pre-made. And then you can put them in the oven or in the fryer. I think I would buy like 100 Magic City Wings.

You did? Come on now, like, I would too. And apparently the New York community is right, they got them on Uber Eats where I stay, so you can get you some Magic City Kitchen at any time. Maybe I just put some people on from Atlanta. Yes, you can order some wings to your door. Absolutely. Salute to Lemon Pepper Lil Williams, my boy. But that's gonna do it for another episode of The Alley Oop. Thanks as always to my brother, the distinguished Dylan, and as always to our sister, Miss Rebecca Donahue, who has never been in any movies ever, not even one of them. So don't— so stop saying it and stop asking. Any last words on the way out of here, sis?

Enjoy San Antonio Blazers. Yeah, get them next year. Wemby, you're too damn smug. Everybody hates you from Portland. Never come to the city. We're never feeding you a good meal. And Danny, get well soon.

And the shout out to all the fans and the listeners. Without y'all, who the hell are we? Catch us again this Friday on the Levitar Show feed on YouTube. Same bad time, different bad channel.
