Can we just be for real for a fucking second? Be fucking for real. Megan Thee Stallion is a bigger star than Klay Thompson outside of basketball. Outside of basketball, nobody fucking knows Klay Thompson.
Welcome back to the Alley Oop. I am Juju Gotti, joined by my sister Trista Crick. As always, how are you doing?
Well, Juju, the Magic did not end up closing it out last night, so I'm a little disappointed. I felt like I was going to be able to dance on Jalen Duren and Cade Cunningham's grave, and instead, uh, we live to fight another day and seal this thing and win this thing in Orlando. So I'm really appreciative that you wore that jersey in solidarity of my take. And let's just, let's just hope for a Game 6 win for the Magic.
Yeah, see, I ironed my, uh, Aliyu outfit before, the night before, so I didn't have the result in hand just yet. And so I was like, you know what, this is gonna kill them tomorrow after we get the dub.
I didn't know you could, um, iron jerseys.
You know, you, you turn it inside out and you put it on the nylon setting, and then you get that little— you know what I mean? I might pull out a little tutorial on how to keep your jerseys up to par.
Honestly, like, because sometimes you fold the jersey up and it gets like wrinkly and you're like, how is it gonna ever get unwrinkly now? And now I know, Juju, because you stay fresh to death.
But you put us on all, bro, all season. You kept telling me, bro, these bitch-ass Pistons ain't worth a damn. I'm like, come on now. Yeah, okay, Cunningham, I don't know. I'm like, come on now. And here we are, bro, they are on the brink of elimination and they needed a Herculean effort from my boy Cade and still barely pulled it out last night. You, since you've been so right about these Pistons, kick it off, bro, about the Magic versus Pistons series, bro. I predict that the Magic will take the next game and this will be over pretty fast. But what about you?
Yeah, I think the thing about Cade, uh, that performance was the biggest performance in playoff single-game Pistons history. So that's what they needed in order for them to get that dub. And I, I think the person that's been better than I expected in terms of just straight counting stats is Tobias Harris. Yeah, but like, let's not forget that in Game 2, Tobias Harris was a gigantic negative out there on the court. So sometimes the numbers say one thing and the plus-minus says another. They just don't have enough. And like, at the end of the day, the Magic don't have a lot either. But the difference in this specific game was that Cade was 14 for 14 from the free throw line and Paolo missed 7 free throws. Paolo, if he would have gone 100% from the free throw line, would have had 52 damn points. And so this was a heavyweight battle from the number 1 picks that sort of play the same brand of basketball. Only Paolo doesn't consider himself a one and he doesn't consider himself Number 3 in MVP voting. So if Kay Cunningham wants to knock himself down a notch or two to the Paolo level, then I'm rolling.
In the meantime, I think Detroit should have kept Dennis Schroeder, who we saw ball out for the Cleveland Cavaliers as well later on, actually at the same time in the nightcap. I think he had 11 out of his 18 points in the fourth quarter. And that kind of guy, especially German postseason a Team Germany version of Dennis Schröder. Yeah, that guy would have really helped Detroit, but instead they let that man go, right?
Instead, he's not getting enough minutes for Cleveland, in my opinion, because they do have— they are guard-heavy. They got guards over there. But the European MVP, I think my boy should be able to find a little more minutes. 19 big points for Dennis Schröder against the Raptors in that pivotal Game 5. So I don't know, bro. I think it's really done for the Pistons right now, especially with this effort from Durant, bro. Durant, Jalen Durant, fight back, bro. Like, I mean, come on now. Angel Reese posting every time you get dunked on. Jamal Cain took your soul. Carter Hill did it again.
Almost did it again last night, bro.
Fight back, bro. Use your hand. You— when I was young, we used these, bro. You did put them up, bro.
Before we move on, let me ask you something, Juju. I want to get your opinion on this.
Okay.
Do you like this brand of basketball that we're watching in terms of the Detroit Magic series? Yeah, because on one hand you're talking about the two worst offenses in terms of efficiency in the playoffs.
Mm-hmm.
But when you watch how hard these dudes are fighting for every possession, Right. And then you turn the dial to the Cavs and Raptors or the Rockets and the Lakers. How, how, like, you would think a rebound was impossible to just have pop off and go 4 or 5 feet off of somebody's fingertips. As soon as somebody on the Pistons or the Magic touch it, they're wrestling for it. And, and so to me, even though the offense hasn't been great The defense and the rebounding and the physicality has been at such a high level of effort. I almost appreciate this series more than any other series.
Yeah, it seemed like they just in a fight. It's like, okay, round 3, you almost got knocked out, but you were saved by the bell, Orlando. And it feel like that because especially with Desmond Bane doing Desmond Bane things. Last night he had another one, got up while, uh, Asar was on top of him. Uh, Thompson with the board and take it away. Hitting the deck, Desmond Bane. And these two teams once again— you seen him almost break his kneecaps, but it just feel like that energy. I think Detroit gonna always have that energy, even with Charlotte earlier this season. But Orlando, they like, look, I packed that thing too. Moving on though to the Rockets and the Lakers. Lakers still up 3-2 at the time of this recording. Is this big news? Is this a big deal, the return of Austin Reeves? Luke Kennard turned back into Steven Q. Erkle. He was Stephon for like 3 games and then he got back in the thing, remember, and he turned right back to Steven Erkle.
Is that a big deal? What was that? What was that?
I see, see, real ones know that's Steven. That's when Steven Erkle turned into—
when he goes back from Steven to Stephon, back to Steven. I didn't know that that was the sound. Exactly the sound.
And then he started going crazy. But yeah, is it, is it, is it a new day? Are the Rockets— do the Rockets have life, or is this just like Scooby Snacks?
To me, the Rockets have life, and it's hard to say that the Lakers should not have brought back Austin Reeves because you saw what the second game of Joel Embiid looked like. But the first Joel Embiid game, the Sixers got fucked up.
Yeah.
So maybe the second game for Austin Reeves, it will be more impactful. But I think the point is sometimes when a role player's spot gets snatched, they start thinking like a role player again. And Luke Kennard went back to the same version of Luke Kennard that he was before he was deciding to put the ball on the floor. He was creating. He wasn't just a spot-up 3-point shooter. We saw all the things that Luke Kennard could do, kind of like when Giannis got injured and Chris Middleton got into his bag. You're like, goddamn, I didn't know Chris Middleton could do all this, right? Why doesn't Chris Middleton do this all the time? Because somebody else has got the ball in their hand, and the way that the offense is flowing and is created and designed is for you not to be able to show those skills off. So to me, I felt like it was detrimental to have Austin Reeves come back and not be fully Austin Reeves, but everybody else take a step back as well, except for Ayton. Ayton was great. Obviously LeBron is still LeBron, but it felt like Marcus Smart wasn't the same.
It was a little bit of Rui. Like, obviously Luke Kennard wasn't himself. Jake Larravia wasn't himself. And if I'm Houston, I'm like, yo, it's himself.
He was— Jake Larravia was himself. I'm gonna stop you there. He was okay.
Jake Larravia was himself. Jake LaRavia was himself. All those times where he does good things, that's not him being himself.
That was him playing with the sixth man, Marlon Williams. Like, that ghost.
You're right, you're right. That's a great point. But now if I'm Houston, I'm thinking like, listen, they're on the ropes. They had the shot to, to win at home, and now we go back to Houston, we're figuring some things out, we don't even have KD, and we're beating them. What do you think?
But I think that the Lakers are— when they went up 3-0, now they playing with house money. They playing with house money the whole time with Luka and, uh, my boy Austin Reeves hurt anyway. So I feel like once they went up 3-0, now 3-1, it's like, okay, Austin, come back, go 4 for 16, because I don't think my boy gonna go 4 for 16 again. That's nuts. On your return is crazy. Now I do agree with what you say. Once you come back, you still gotta empower. You gotta come back and empower, say, hey Luke, I will be damned if you play 31 minutes and score 1 point. That's over the hair of my chinny chin chin. We're not doing that because if coach see that, coach gonna come to me. So as me, as Austin Reeves, number 3 on the team, damn near number 2, I'm going to make sure Luke, Marcus Smart, Rui, everybody is playing at just as high a clip as they were game 1 through 3. And so I feel like that's where they dropped the ball. Maybe Austin Reeves could have, you know, I mean, swung that thing a little more.
But I'll be damned if, if I wouldn't rather have Austin Reeves going in this next game than not have him. 3-2 in Houston. I feel like this thing ain't even going back to LA. If I had to guess, we don't know anything. I've learned that the hard way. But I just have a hard time thinking that Austin Reed won't show up and be a better version of himself, and that might propel them to go ahead and close this series out.
He's gonna need to be a good defender. He's gonna need to not be a sieve. There's— there needs to be less turnovers. 9 turnovers in the first half for LA. Shot the lowest field goal percentage that they have throughout the series, I think in the 40s. Um, it just needs to be better all around. They need to clean it all the way up.
Yeah, speaking of cleanup, man, it's the last time we're gonna do this for the 99-2000, man. It's over with. The Blazers— oh, it's done. It happened. Yeah, it was on the brink last time we talked, and here we are, actually over with. What can we take from this series? Let's, let's put this positive spin on this because we know Wemby beat Danny Adebayo's shot over the backboard. We're not gonna laugh at that. We know everybody took— we know it was a guy with a fake tooth in the crowd saying, 'Your tooth, you lost your tooth.' We saw that one.
This is like borderline besmirching.
No, I'm just saying, so we don't have to talk about this stuff, I'm gonna go ahead and get it.
Got it.
Uh, we saw them, uh, Stephon Castle push the ball, and my boy Chase like, 'Take the ball with you, go home, who cares.' Uh, but at the same time, a lot of good stuff happened this year for the Blazers when it was not supposed to. The season started off with their coach in handcuffs from a RICO charge. Like, nobody would have blamed the Blazers for having one of them Blazer years and being ass like normal. Now, I feel like them boys not only proved a lot of haters wrong, made sure Denny is now on the map, but now it's Dame time next year, bro. And I feel like— and they not gonna make no moves during the free agency. There might be some cheap moves, but what— how hopeful are you as a Blazer as a Lakers fan for the future?
I'm on one hand very hopeful because this team has an identity, you know, athletic, long, bouncy, defensive-minded, passionate, you know, want to play fast, get downhill. That's the type of basketball that we're seeing really evolve in the NBA, you know. As much as I bang on Houston and bang on Detroit. Like, you can win a lot of games by try-hard basketball if you have just better athletes on the other side, right? So that's step one. Then you get Dame Lillard back, who's like the second best shooter of our generation besides Steph. So he's an awesome off-movement shooter. We saw him win the 3-point contest and he didn't even have his full rehab done yet. He was just basically out of a boot. And he smoked everybody. And I think that's gonna be the case again. Now, in terms of what I think the Blazers should do, I think that they should look at what Donovan Clingan is and, and what they're gonna try to go up against while Dame is in the tail end of his career. And I think you make some win-now moves. To me, I think you trade Jeremy Grant and you trade Donovan Clingan for Rudy Gobert.
I think we're seeing what Rudy Gobert can do against Jokic. I know that maybe that's not the same thing against OKC, but I think you, it, It can go up against Luke Kornet. It can go up against Wemby. You can put guards on Wemby and then have Rudy Gobert roam and grab rebounds. So I like that a lot. That's kind of my— if nobody has said this yet, that this is just me in my own brain. People are snatching up rebounds left and right from Donovan Clingan's face, playing on his name, like Steph Castle, Dylan Harper. They're not doing that to Rudy. Rudy's getting every single board. And Rob, keep Rob Williams. And then in terms of my pessimism, Juju, I'm pessimistic because I'm worried about this owner not wanting to spend any money. I'm worried about who are we getting as a coach. Is he gonna pay like me to coach the team?
You know what, doggy ear that thought. Doggy ear that, because I got some plans for you. I got a whole blueprint and to get you in the front office, but neither here nor there.
Okay, okay. If you want to talk about on the show, we can talk about on the show too, but that's money.
That's big money. We have to— we gotta leave them out of this one. Got it. We gotta leave them out of this.
We gotta leave them out out of this. Yeah, no, I think Tom Dunne is a big concern, but I think in general, like you said, you capped it off perfectly. This is a team no one would have given a hard time if they would have folded like lawn chairs. You lost your coach to a La Cosa Nostra FBI RICO charge, you know what I mean? He's rigging allegedly poker games with the mob, fam. Like, and you got Tiago Splitter coaching in his second language. Yeah, he just came over from Spain. Teaching, coaching, winning championships in Spain.
Come on.
And now he's— game 1, they take the dude out in the middle of the night and they're like, hey, it's you now. I'm gonna bump you up a couple hundred thousand, take over the team. And then everybody gets injured after that. Literally, you got Caleb Love out there giving him starting minutes. The fact that this team could have been up 3-1 on the San Antonio Spurs— be fucking like stoked.
Yeah, right. And not to mention, Thiago had to coach the last couple of games knowing that the coach was looking to move on from my boy. So it's like, yes, and they still didn't come out there and lay eggs. They actually competed every game.
So yeah, like I said, like I said to Cam and Mace, they said you didn't play well, and I go, we did play well, just not for all the quarters.
Put that on a t-shirt, Dylan, please, ASAP. Moving on, man. I'ma just ask you this, this question straight up, bro. No semantics, no biases, just straight question. Can the Knicks win the East? Uh-oh, my sister frozen.
Oh yes, the Knicks can win the East. Yes, they can.
Okay, cool. What is gonna have to happen for them to do so?
Well, they're gonna have to do the same thing they did in Boston last year. Yeah, play a physical brand of basketball and win games. Win the games where Boston misses all those damn threes. Those— that's the recipe. We see it, Juju. You know how your team— this is your team. You know the ups and downs of what the Celtics do. And when they go 18 for 50 from 3 or 12 for 50 from 3, you gotta win those games. and they may just based off of luck, they may have 4 of those games out of 7 and you gotta win every one and you gotta win the rebounding battle. You gotta push 'em around and you know that the center position for Boston is a weak point right now. Mm-hmm. Uh, and if you can beat Boston, then I think you can beat whoever comes out of that other side of the bracket, bracket, whether that's Detroit, whether that's Orlando, whether that's Cleveland, whether that's Toronto, don't matter to me. No matter what. Whoever comes out of that Boston versus Knicks second round series, provided that the Knicks do get by Atlanta, which I think they will, whoever wins that series is, is going to the finals.
See, and see, and now I would like to bring Exhibit B into the film room. A healthy Joel Embiid just came into town and just strolled into Boston.
He did.
And He also realized after going 0 for 4 in the first half from 3 that he don't need to be shooting them 3s, and he did not shoot any 3s in the second half. All paint work, all big man, all you can't guard me, all I'm better than you. That's it. Oh yeah, oops, my bad, there's Tyrese Maxey. I'm better than— oh, there's Vijay. I'm better than— oh, Paul George is open, you feel me? Oh, shit, surprise! Damn, Quinn Grimes, if you want, if you say so, bro. You can get your 18. That changes the East, in my opinion, a smidge. I'm a Celtics fan because I know, like you said, bruh, they are not changing how they gonna— they are gonna shoot these threes. They're gonna live and die by it. Okay, cool. Look ahead to that second round if you want to. Here, bruh, imagine, imagine a world where Kawhi Leonard and Joel Embiid never had injuries, how many championships would that— you know what I'm saying? So if my boy has a little plateau of health and that plateau can just last— this is the biggest part though, I don't think it can last through the weekend most times, but if it can potentially last a couple months, man, couple weeks at a time, I think the Sixers can be a problem and could potentially find themselves in that second round against the Knicks.
What's so right? You're so right, because when Embiid is cooking, there's nothing like the Joel Embiid experience when he's cooking. Just truly, it's unstoppable. He's pulling up on you, one dribble, two dribble, jab, head fake, off the elbow. Now you're, now you're starting to like come in on him. Now he's running around you, Duncan. Now he's going up and under and one. Now he's dishing left, dishing right. Now he's bounce passing. Now you've— now you've opened things up for the perimeter. Now Maxie's pulling up in transition. Now Paul George is pulling up in transition. Now Quentin Grimes is coming around screens, pulling up as well. And all of a sudden it's like, god dang, VJ Edgecomb, this team is good, right?
Right out of nowhere, I'm like, well damn. And then the most impressive stat from the other night— yes, he put up big numbers, yes, he's distributed, yes, everybody was there— 39 minutes for Joel Embiid the other night. So look, Celtics, play if you want to, y'all my guys, but man, these— and bro, these people are talked about so ferociously and vigorously. They can never win. Uh, Joel Embiid, uh, President Trump won 2 times for Joe Allenby went to Eastern Conference, so they got that fire. I just hope that the Celtics ain't the victim in that situation.
I agree. Celtics are going to need to win this game by a bajillion, or ending up in a Game 7 will really, really be awful.
Exactly, very awful. We gonna get into the, the time machine right now and take it back to a little segment that we used to call What's Up. First up, we got LeBron James, King James. He was at the free throw line in this loss, and he, he was at the free throw line and he could have swore he heard a bitch say something. I, I thought I heard a punk MF say something. I know that ain't who I think talking to me. LeBron James coming off game in which he had just 10 points, was 2 of 9 from the floor. It's tied for his fewest made field goals in a playoff game in his career, first time he had done so since 2014. I think LeBron James listened to the alley-oop because he done had it with this Shingun nonsense too. Shingun got the nerve to call a foul on LeBron James, a soft call. Boy, did you see that?
I mean, isn't that exactly what Shengun was mad at that ref for not calling a foul on him? And he called her all kinds of bitches and hoes.
There we go.
We're not trying to— I'm done with Shengun. And then I heard him talk to a sideline reporter after a game after the Houston Rockets won, and just— there's just something about him that unnerves me, Juju. I don't like him whatsoever. I don't like his game. I don't like his attitude. And I don't think the real ones in the NBA do either.
You feel me? And somebody, a barber, please. Too many barbers in Houston to keep letting my boy trot out there with half a fade and half a crew cut. I don't know what the hell he got going on. Somebody pull up on my boy and get him right for Game 6, man. Alperin Shango, boy, stop, man.
Boy, stop. Boy, go away.
Moving on to the biggest story in hip-hop and R&B right now, and b-ball. Klay Thompson and Meg have called it quits, man. Did you see it? Do you have anything on this topic before we go to the videos?
I mean, I do, Juju. I think that I've been— I'm watching everybody comment on this, including my co-hosts on It Is What It Is, and I could go probably solid hour on this. Yeah, but at the end of the day, the thing that kills me is that women can't be hoes, or they can't be quote-unquote sexually promiscuous, or at least even talk about enjoying sex without being considered a hoe and unworthy of monogamy or love or being treated well or treated with respect. Because— and but at the same time, a man can be a hoe and he deserves anything he wants because he plays basketball. Like, can we just be for real for a fucking second? Be fucking for real. Megan Thee Stallion is a bigger star than Klay Thompson outside of basketball. Outside of basketball, nobody fucking knows Klay Thompson. Oh, is that John B? No, that's not John B. That's fucking not John B. That's a guy who used to be a really good player who now is languishing and be playing around on his boat. RIP Rocco. Meg Thee Stallion is going around from country to country and city to city and selling out.
Okay, if Klay Thompson can pull bitches, Meg Thee Stallion can pull bitches as well. The power, the status, the money, all the things that Klay Thompson has within the NBA, Meg Thee Stallion has on a higher, more broad level than Klay Thompson. Except for Klay Thompson puts balls in the hoops, and so dudes on the internet who probably have never fucking put in their life think that Meg Thee Stallion is unworthy of any sort of respect or love. And also, not free Tory Lanez. She got shot in the foot. Stop discrediting her just because she wants to talk about her wet ass. That's what I gotta say, right?
You said all that while looking to the side like Stevie Wonder, bro. Like, that shit— put that on them. And what they call it, the, uh, the, the Louver. You're not the only person that feels this way because right now we got witches, we got Wiccans, we got whores, we got church girls, we got all type of women coming together and praying and rooting, even doing voodoo on my boy Klay Thompson's downfall. Roll it, Miss Rebecca.
Klay is broke.
Klay is a girl.
Klay lost the game. Klay has no fame. Clay has no holes. Clay has no goals. Clay has to cough, can't find a hole. Clay wants to shoot, can't find the ball. Girl, Megan is free. Megan is outside twerking on one knee. Megan is happy.
Boy, look, mute, mute, mute, sister. Girl, get up. How about that? And stop burning all them damn candles in there, man. You finna burn the house down playing.
And by the way, when you're making a video, don't backlit yourself. Look like a ghost, bro.
You look crazy. Salute to the— look, salute to all the communities out there, the voodoo community. I'm not trying to besmirch y'all at all, but at the same time, have you turned on the TV? It's way more folks to wish voodoo on right now than damn Klay Thompson, man.
I think what it is, Juju, truly, yeah, is the It's not about Clay. It's about everyone rallying around Clay, which is like— and it's not really about Megan. It's about— it's about the fact that you think because you're rich and famous and, and you have status and success, that means you can do— play around and do anything you want to do and have somebody play house and then bunch of other people, cool, kind of. So can she. But that exact same thing, yeah, makes her unworthy. But that exact same thing for Clay makes him more worthy.
Well, who says she's unworthy though, is my thing. That's just the same.
Well, no, a lot of people, Juju. That's what a lot of people are saying, is that because she's a hoe and she talks about hoe activities with hoe tendencies— hoes are your friends, hoes are your enemies. Then she got what she deserved from Klay. What should she have ever thought she would ever do? This dude's 6'7", he's light-skinned, he can shoot threes. Why would he ever wife a girl up like, like Megan? How about why would she ever wife a dude up like Klay?
Yeah, I know what you said. I see, I get what you're saying now. I'm picking up what you're putting down.
Yeah, I mean, they're both the same. They both are famous, they're both rich, they both do ho shit, they're always in some drama. But she's the one that everybody says, oh, she's washed up, she's ran through, and so we should treat her like whatever. And especially the dudes who've never gotten a hot girl in their life for saying this in the comments is like, dude, you would slobber all over Megan's toenails while you're steady talking about she's a 3-0 foe. You're a 3-0 foe. How about that? You're a fucking real foe. And the only reason you're talking like this is because Clay is aspirational to you, and you believe that women should sit there in their little gilded cages waiting for your golden dick that you're dirtying up everywhere else instead of getting her rocks off other places too. No, don't put any sex on a pedestal, women's sex or man sex.
Golden.
Sorry, your royal penis is waiting, your highness. Get the fuck out of here.
But at the same time, in the same vein, there is, um, someone receiving a lot of backlash online right now because of this Clay and Meg situation. The rumors are swirling so much, and Lexi Brown is getting hit with the brunt of them. And she finally spoke out after a couple days thinking that somebody was going to speak out and have her back.
Crazy. She went on Fox News. Crazy that she went on Fox News for this. This is exactly kind of dumb shit. Of course it was a conservative platform that was like, let's hear from the side hoe. And I'm not saying that Lexi's even— this even happened, but that's what time they're on, right?
Allegedly, me and Klay are— do know each other because we both play professional basketball.
I would have considered him a friend.
I do not know Meg Thee Stallion at all. You know, today, like, we still— I'm still the only person that has denied this entire situation of my involvement and claimed that this is 100% false. And the fact that I'm still the only one that is defending my name, I just— I have no idea how to process that.
Yeah, Clay! You're a bitch. If you never put your little golden dirty dick inside Alexi Brown, then how about you say it? Okay, get on your boat, drink your little latte, and say, yo, stop dragging my girl Alexi through the mud. We never hooked up. But he wants to propagate his little Wilt Chamberlain hoe narrative. Guess what? Stop, boy. Stop.
Yeah, let's see this. This is where I finally tag in and be like, yeah, Clay. If you ain't messing with this girl, even if you is, bro, this lame. You got to speak up and defend it. Like, come on now, this is, this is one of our queens now. Like, I understand your relationship going on, or you have a dog within winning that specific argument or winning the public opinion, but somebody getting hurt now. Lexi receiving death threats because people love Meg. Meg is a superstar, worldwide superstar. Her fans in, in the poor places in the world and the poorest places of the world They got phones too, and they sending out messages to who they think is responsible for this. And my sister Lexi Brown getting the brunt of it. So if she— bro, if she is not the person or that's involved in this story, you know how unfair that is? You know how mad I would be if that was my daughter? Listeners, if that— if Lexi Brown was your daughter, or Megan Thee Stallion too, for sure. Meg got some We can— Meg got the support. Lexi don't have as much support as Meg got, you feel me?
I don't know as far as the fandom, because this week been rough for sis. I don't saw sis— they pulled out bikini pictures of her, they's pulling out her family. She, she have health problems that she been going through that causes her to miss time in the W from time to time. They attacking that. So it's just like, bro, what are we doing? Clay, wake up, speak up, bro.
Moody, all right, moody, emo. Trying to propagate your little, your little harem narrative. Nobody wants that. Nobody wants that. Just do better. Just do better.
That's all. That's all. Just speak up for our queen, Clay. Whatever you're doing with Meg, hey, that's between you and I.
And the fact that he unfollowed her made it just look shady. The whole thing looks shady. And I think he knows what he's doing. He's been in the league a long time. He's got crisis management firms. He knows communication staffs. He has people that can advise him. You're making this whole thing worse.
Yeah, come on, Clay, wake up, Clay. I don't want to see no more video from that goddamn boat before you speak up on Lexi, bro.
You're gonna need to go to the Bahamas or something, right?
And this ain't none of my business. If you out there saying this ain't my business, guess what? It ain't. But guess what? Uh, our queens are my business, so I feel like I'm gonna advocate for them every time. So neither here nor there, let's end this thing on a happy note though. Lastly, We got Zendaya, she pulled up to her homegirl or homeboy's wedding, and I want to know, if this is your special day, right, you at the altar, bro, reading, reading the damn— what they call them— the vows, and then as this is happening, this take place. Your drinker. Love is not selfish. Hope this is a brag or boast. Zindaya, salute, we love you. Girl, you better pull up to this wedding on time or sit outside them doors until it's over.
Come on.
My mama would have stood up and escorted Miss Zendaya right back outside, right by her, uh, under— right here on her skirt, and had a little talking to with her about how this bride's day is gonna go.
Yeah, it's tough. It definitely puts a little bit of shine on Zendaya, a little bit of main character syndrome on a normie event. Uh, and she pulled up in the dress that's like way too fancy for the event. Just go to Zara and just get something, Zendaya. You didn't need to hit up like, uh, Chanel themselves to make something for you custom to show up literally in the middle of the "I do, will you?" "Yes, I do." "Yes, I do." She's got that man wondering whether he could get Zendaya now. He's looking at her like I don't know, she pulled up. I think she might have pulled up for me.
Maybe like that. Don't do my boy like that. My boy faithful ain't never cheated or ever thought about cheating on this queen at the altar. How dare you?
Sure, that's where we're at.
But Zendaya, we love you. Come on, Euphoria, we locked in. Spider-Man X, we locked in. Whatever hell yes you got going on, we locked in.
We're locked in.
Stop, bruh. Don't pull up to the wedding late and then got freecum dress. No, no, no, no, no. But that's gonna do it for another episode of the Alley Oop. We ran a little long today, but once we start talking about Meg Thee Stallion, bro, our bets are off, man. Any last words, sis?
Stop putting the coochie on a pedestal.
I'm not. I can't help you. I mean, bleep that. Thank you as always to Miss Rebecca Donahue as well as our brother the distinguished Dylan. And thank all of the listeners for listening, man, and tuning in. Without y'all, who the hell are we? Catch us again this Tuesday on the DLS Hoops page on YouTube. You dig it?
Same bad time, different, different channel. Yeah, www.allyoopshow.com.
