Atlanta is very similar to Miami right now.

People are kicking it.

People are out partying.

They're wiling out.

The MBA ratings were already down during the playoffs last year.

You need your star players to be present and to not have Covic.

Why bring all your best athletes to a place like Atlanta for the All Star Game?

Knowing that they're going to be in the environment like this when you've already had so many games postponed, canceled the All Star Game, just trying to get through this year and finished the season with everybody being healthy?

First of all, do you agree this weekend?

What do you got?

No, I I agree with you.

I know why they're doing it much like you said the HBC use.

But at the same time, the NBA is losing money.

So they still trying to make up some of that money on those some of those sponsorship deals.

I'm sure that the sponsors, you know, saying give me that money back if you're not gonna have the game and they're saying no, but I get it.

No, you know, I mean, it's a meaningless game like.

What is it?

What are you doing?

Lpc W Okay, next one.

Hashtag Zubin, We're starting it free.

Bradley.

Bill, get this man out of Washington, D C.

I can no longer see him play in that jersey.

He had 47 points last night against the New Orleans Pelicans.

After the game is over there like Hey, man, are you down?

He's like is the sky blue?

He is one of the most talented players in the league.

Leads the league in scoring 35 points per game.

This guy had John Wall, who was injury prone, didn't play with him most of his career.

And now he has Russell Westbrook, who has a quad injury shooting career lows from the field and the three point line.

Please.

I want to see Bradley Bill on a team that's contending for World Championship.

Next up.

LeBron James J.

Yes, this guy is gray outside in New York.

Yeah, well, it's great in D.

C all year long, Qi next up front runner for the MVP, LeBron James.

I know we have Michael Jordan fatigue, but let's stop making the same mistake over and over and over again.

2018.

I know James Harden got the MVP.

LeBron James should have won it.

I know last year.

Yeah, I just got the MVP.

LeBron James should have won it.

He should have.

Six N b.

A regular season MVP awards this year in 32 minutes.

Has a career high shooting.

41% from the three point line.

Averaging 25 points, eight rebounds, seven assists, 50% in the field.

I know Joel Embiid, Kevin Durant.

They're playing well, but this team is playing the best team in the NBA.

The Utah House of Representatives passed legislation the other day backing Donovan Mitchell in a battle vs Shock.

Utah.

House of Representatives passed legislation backing Donovan Mitchell against Jack.

Its's going to that the green.

And here's the reason.

Key.

Why is an issue?

If you're trying to do things that are motivational for Donovan Mitchell, why do you have to show out and do that on national TV?

Why do you have to have an awkward moment with Donovan Mitchell?

If that's what you want to do, shock, then why not have a conversation with Donovan Mitchell offline?

Why does it seem like sometimes when I watch TNT and I love TNT.

Chuck is a guy that comes on our show.

That's my big brother.

Love all those guys.

But at times it feels like it's that old generation that loses touch on how to communicate to the young generation.

Is it me, or am I just tripping on that key?

Um, I wouldn't necessarily say your trip.

And I just think that the diesel probably the choice of words, right?

I mean, because he said he did say he did it on purpose because he wanted him to hear it.

And he also said he love his game.

At the same time, he told him to keep doing what you're doing, so I kind of I'm not really sure where he was going with it.

I think it was a poor choice of words on the diesel part in terms of saying what he said, Um, I think he was trying toe motivating Bye, saying that he's not ready to take his game to the next level.

That's probably kind of what he should have.

Probably should have preference to that by saying, You know, I've been watching you play, you've been cooking, but you're not there yet.

You know, you scored 47 but that's not it.

Don't be complacent.

Don't get fall in love with just that.

Keep going.

He probably should have said something along those lines.

You know what I'm saying?

I mean, but it takes more than one man to win an N b A championship.

I mean, my land last year in the playoffs have 51 47 45.

I mean, he was out of his mind, so I don't know why.

Why try to give him that motivation?

He already has it.

Obviously.

Man, don't ask me then.

I don't know.

I'm just saying it was something that was going viral.

It got hot.

And I just want to bring attention to it because obviously it's a storyline.

Karen order from last week then that Jesus said, there's only three people to people that did what I did.

MBA, Seth Curry and in in James.
