00:00We got a, uh. What we got? We got a basketball team to talk about. That's what we got. That's
00:07what we got. Warriors. 104-89. Another baseball series. That's a set. Baseball series. Not
00:17a series. Fitts called it the baseball series. Well, Fitts called it that. Evan, what are
00:22you doing cuddling from one of these teams? 104-89. And suffocated the Pelicans. That's
00:28my big takeaway. It is? I need, I need your help. Happy Halloween. You can take your mask
00:34off. Hey, uh, my sources say you were in the building. You were back-to-back at the Check
00:42Center. You know what? Let me, uh, let me, uh, apologize again to Joel Embiid. These
00:50back-to-backs are tough. Yeah. My man in the building. I need a, I need a recovery
00:58day from the back-to-back. This team is grimy. It's gritty. Uh, it leads the NBA in deflections,
01:05a stat that I think is underrated. Yeah. They lead in deflections. And I don't know if his
01:10hunger, if everybody's hungry with these, you know, 12 man rotations, but what I need
01:16for you on this Halloween to do to Mr. Optimistic is help me not have haters think I'm being
01:24negative about this start. I'm not, I want the whole enchilada. And what I mean by that
01:30story is I guess I'm a bit irritated that as great as this start is and what I like,
01:38man's not there, Robin and Melton. So you know what I mean? Not really. I like that makes it
01:47better. But then when they come back, there's a cloud still love positivity, but Oh my God,
01:54how far can we take this until they come back? That's all. Cause I love what I'm seeing and
02:00Draymond. I already gave you an apology two weeks ago when I went to that preseason game,
02:05but Stani, he's playing his ass off. And then I didn't hear, I don't know if you heard his
02:11comments after the game and you know, you got people saying, do you believe them or not?
02:15Just the fact that he echoed, he's trying to be a leader. He stunk last year. He felt like his play.
02:21He argued too much. I'm like, man, this is night and day this team from last year, right now.
02:27I mean, there are good signs all over the place. That's the bottom line. And again,
02:34good call. They haven't had the toughest schedule through five games, but what are you going to do?
02:38Not play the games. You got to play the games and you, they, they've won four out of five and now
02:42they, now they've got to see what they can do on the road. And it's going to be a tough one.
02:48They got the rockets on Saturday. Then they got the wizards Jordan pool. They stink.
02:57What are you talking about? They're 500. Well, I don't, not only that,
03:02but they beat the Hawks twice in a row. They stink. The Hawks, your old team. Yeah,
03:08they do stand. You're a warrior now. Yeah. Then they got, uh, let me see. I wrote it down. Rockets
03:15wizards. Then it's at Boston, Cleveland, Oklahoma city. And then I'll take it one game further.
03:24Give it to me. Then when they come back, you know what day it is? The 12th
03:28clay Thompson in the Mavericks in town. Wow. So that's a bear right there. Next week and a half
03:34is going to be pretty fun. When you see Curry in there, if you, I know you're not a doctor,
03:38but if you were, if you had to make a prediction right now, is he, is he in a H town Saturday night?
03:45I'm hoping. Yeah, I think he's going to play. I think he's going to play Saturday. And Wiggins,
03:50what, what, what's going on with that? Sure. All right. I'm not sure. I thought it was the
03:54back, back with him and Milton. Um, I'm not sure what's going on with Wiggins. That's my Chris
03:59Berman back, back, back, back. Uh, I mean, there was just, there's another game last night where
04:04there's a lot to like, I broke my back. And I was saying, um, I mean, here's a, here's a newsflash.
04:10This team's got some players. They got a lot of players. Maybe they don't have a lot of stars,
04:16but they got guys who can play the game and they're hungry, Stiney. And you are right. It
04:20sure looks that way. Last night wasn't an offensive, uh, you know, uh, expose,
04:27but they were grimy. They, and, and when I found out they lead in deflections, I'm like, that's
04:32hunger. Uh, is that going to keep up all season? I don't know. But right now, Stiney Dunleavy and
04:38Lake up incur have to be happy. And again, I'm just coming from the vantage point of as sweet
04:44as it is last year, this team was six and two. And you kept saying, uh, when they went up to
04:48Denver, I did. Yeah. You kept when they were six and two and being overzealous, but we were like,
04:54man, we might have something. The schedule gets more difficult and they, they got swallowed up
05:00by that schedule. And that season was bad last year. So I bring that up just to say, Stiney is,
05:07this is a different team, a different mentality. I think the dark clouds and the, and the,
05:13and the I guys or me guys, that's out of the locker room. I just want them healthy and whole.
05:19So we really can get an early start on, you know, an identity. And the last time Steph
05:25played Stiney, they lost it home to the Clippers. Yeah. We got hurt in, in, in the middle of that
05:31game, but you know, that's, uh, that'll happen. You'll lose some games like that, but I just,
05:37this team for me, I'm, I'm getting some enjoyment watching this team. I can't say
05:42nothing else. I, you know, I've, I was talking to some people last night and I just,
05:46I can't figure it out, but for whatever reason, I, I just really liked this team.
05:51Well, it's connectivity is my word. Now, remember I told you, I felt like the, uh,
05:57it was a little strong study. I felt like the Warriors betrayed me. They didn't try and do it,
06:02but their culture that I bought into, and I was a part of their, you know, that culture fan club.
06:07But when you found out things were going on behind closed doors, I guys, me, and not we,
06:14I was a little hurt. But now I feel like Mike Dunleavy Jr. told us when we went out there for
06:19media day again, that word connectivity is on my TV. When I watched this cast of characters play
06:26basketball, they're four and one it's early, but damn it's tiny. They were great on the road last
06:31year. Let's see if they could continue that. Uh, when they go start this five game, uh, rodeo.
06:37Yeah. I would love to know from warrior fans where you're at again. Cause we, we, we talked
06:43about this yesterday. Uh, the Warriors beat the Pelicans two nights ago and it's tough to beat a
06:49team two games in a row on back to backs. Right. And they did it. And I just, I I'm interested.
06:55Look, I don't know what it is. There's just something about this team. I like, I just,
07:00I like their role players. I like, I like their smartness. I think they're tough. I think if
07:06you're going to try to play as many guys as they're playing, then you do have a chance to be a good,
07:12a much better defensive team. But I want to know from warrior fans, like how much you believe in
07:18this team because it's a great start. They've gotten off to a great start. Uh, they've,
07:25they've handled the games you think they should handle. And now the schedule is going to get a
07:29little bit tougher and they got a five game road trip. And you know, obviously you want to win as
07:34many as possible, but these are tough teams. Can you get, can you get to, can you get two out of
07:40five? Do you want more than that? I want more than that. But I mean, to me, when you look at
07:45these teams, if you go three and two on this trip, boy, you got to be ecstatic because that means
07:50then that you probably beat one of the best teams in the league. And remember what happened when
07:55you were in bean town last Sunday on national TV. And I know it's a different team. The Warriors
08:00like 60 point game. Oh my gosh, Donnie, you remember that? So I hope the Warriors still
08:05have that on my mind. You tell me you and Evan and the listeners, am I being a prisoner of the
08:09moment, the guru computer or the guru glasses? Uh, Stani, have you seen Steve curse mom more
08:15after five games in this year? Like there's a, there's a relief or something, a burden off of
08:21his shoulders. He's having fun coaching. I really believe it. And I can't sit here and ignore what
08:28they told and how cool they were as a collective to let us know what they were dealing with.
08:34But Stani, he can make any sub at any time. And I feel like he just feels free. The air is just,
08:42you know, different. Why? Because things I'm not putting it on one guy, everybody,
08:49we got to play that Draymond sound too. We'll play that. Incredible. We'll play that. But
08:53eight, eight, eight, let's get it going today. Eight, eight, eight, nine, five, seven,
08:57nine, five, seven, zero Warriors went back to back games and congrats to the Dodgers.
09:02We would be fake. Not that we're probably the only show in America, not saying what's up with
09:06the Dodgers. So kudos to them. Congratulations to the Dodgers. And that puts the exclamation
09:11point on the giant season. What would it say? It's never been a bigger gap this wide.
09:17Oh, what do you mean? Buster's here though. Did you see what Juan Soto said? You start
09:23to be open to listen to every single team. I'm out. Get to work. Buster.
09:33I know we're up against it. You're becoming gullible. I didn't know. What's he supposed to
09:38say? He's a Yankee Stani. You think he wants to come here for what right now, you know,
09:45to change the culture, the three-year plan,
09:51how do you do last night? Yeah, I was good. Sterling was good. He's a legend. By the way.
09:58No, no, no. I won't get into it. You see Lake up last night.
10:07I saw him from across the arena. I saw something on there.
10:12Move on Joe. Joe's happy right now. And by the way, we talked about Jonathan Kamingo a lot
10:19yesterday. He was good last night. Well, I tell you what, I don't know if he's a three. I don't
10:26know if he's a four. Just, you know, lose a little, lose a little of those threes. Get into
10:31that lane. He's got a great, great mid-range game. Great game in the key. They held New Orleans
10:38under an NBA team, under a hundred. I didn't realize McCollum didn't play, but go. Well,
10:43neither did Murray. Neither did Murphy and Jones, but who cares?
10:51Exactly.
