WI what’s up what’s up everybody don’t mind me Ben’s over here being rude welcome to nothing but the truth with Melanie Ricks hope you all are doing well oh my gosh what a week what a night um we got to get we got to get into some thingss
Y’all we got to get into some thingss cuz last night I saw some thingss that I’ve never seen before but before we get into everything um hi and how are y’all doing today I hope everybody is doing well uh it you know there was a lot of
Excitement at Five Star forum last night and I need to know how y’all are feeling about that game give me your initial thoughts initial feelings emotions there’s so much to unpack I I like I literally don’t even know where to start so going into the game it was
Bucks versus Pacers last night and of of course the Bucks played the Pacers a week ago now in Vegas and um it didn’t go our way that was the semi-finals game uh it didn’t go our way Pacers of course went on to play the Lakers in the tournament finals the
Lakers won that tournament shout out to them again um but it very much felt going into last night’s game that it was going to be a Revenge game of sorts a lick back game if you will and so the energy was was there you feel me like
There there was an energy in the air no question about it just walking into the arena you could feel it it was definitely one of those but I don’t think anything could have prepared me for the madness for the craziness just the the wow of it all
Okay so I I want to I want to know how y’all are feeling about all the things bucks Pacers and just all everything that happened last night now obviously we had to like find out as we went what exactly went down cuz you know what I
Want to give a shout out to somebody on Twitter real quick I don’t know who this man is but this somebody tweeted me um after my postgame interview with Yanni and who by the way let let me let me pause for a second congratulations to the Greek Freak 64 points 14 rebounds I
Think 14 rebounds but 64 points new franchise record passed up Michael red who in 2007 last scor 57 points Giannis anre Copo was 64 like real casual points no threes by the way and even without his free throws this man still would have scored 40 but Anyway from NBA Championship talk in the lane holiday rips it away 16 seconds to go to yanis slam it how about that to budding local hoop Stars inbound pass comes to mckuin mckuin is going to try he’ll L UK slam dunk to Michael Foster he broke the press and then got the lob
To Foster 87 the lead for Washington this is the truth basketball report on nothing but the truth brought to you by vban Orthodontics Wisconsin’s number one in visal line provider where you give the world your Smile all right I hope y’all are smiling cuz the Bucs got a big dub at home last night that was game two of this six game home stand and I want to talk to y’all about everything that happened first off tell me how you feeling um I got folks
Chiming in on my Ig live at melan Ricks you can go on there right now if you want to check out the show from there of course also watch us on YouTube on Twitter on Twitch all right so I’m going to go back to what I was stating uh so
Yannis 64 points new franchise record shout out to Damen Lillard as well um he is number five on the NBA’s three most three-pointers made list of all time um he passed up oh my gosh Kyle corver Kyle corver last night um so shout out to Damen Lillard shout
Out to jannis anre DMO um just real casually breaking records it’s it’s fine everything’s fine and those were some of the highlights the win it’s also a big highlight but the energy you know walking into to the arena and just being in the arena it definitely just felt
Like you know Revenge you know what I’m saying it felt like that now it’s December y’all and the Pacers are not a typical rival of the bucks but they’ve been playing very well this season uh Tyrese halberton he’s having an MVP caliber season shout out to Tyrese ashkash is own
And obviously with us coming off this tournament situation it definitely felt like one of those and there was a lot of hostility in the game I mean there was a a shove situation that happened between Giannis and Tyrese uh they very quickly hugged it out all was good um but Giannis got a
Tech for that Bobby poris was ejected um and then obviously there was the the ball situation at the end of the game you know I I I want to know how y’all feel about the fact that you know they wanted to get cuz I I understand
For those who don’t know um there was a confusion some miscommunication with the game ball Giannis he you know hit a new scoring record 64 points the most that he has ever scored in a game so naturally you think the game ball is going to go to him but the Pacers also
Have a rookie who scored his first NBA points so for them they said no common procedure normal standard The Rook who is scoring his first NBA points he gets that game ball and I’m not going to lie to y’all I’m not even trying to be Shady but what happens when two rookies score
In the same game I just want to know I was just wondering I was just wondering but anyway so um apparently allegedly I you know I cannot confirm any of this but somebody from the Indiana Pacers uh staff grab the ball for their rook and you know Yannis and his teammates they
Went to go try to retrieve the ball um and Chaos just continued to ensue and I felt y’all like what happened postgame um definitely was a continuation of that same energy that we were seeing and feeling in like during the game those of you who are at fiser Forum you know what
I’m talking about I know y’all felt that too um now you know I’m always going to try to see the positive the good in things and I want to know from y’all do you lean more toward you know an NBA uh excuse me a rook getting his first
NBA bucket or do you lean toward a guy who’s now been in the league for 10 years 10 seasons and he scores 64 in a game for the first time in his career I I want to know which one you and and let’s keep in mind you’re playing at
Feiser Forum giannis’s home court and you got the win Giannis I’m just saying and I’m not trying to be biased at all but I was very surprised that the Indiana Pacers took it upon themselves to take the ball just considering those two factors now I believe it was coach
Carlile who said um following the game they weren’t even thinking about the fact that Giannis you know had set a new scoring record and I I get that I I definitely get that I understand um but what do y’all think is the right way you know to to to play that situation out
Because I honestly don’t know I’m not a Hooper you know what I’m saying like I don’t I don’t know what the I don’t know what we all do like what are your practices I guess when it comes to those kind of things 833 21210 one7 uh Tony says that the ball should
Have gone to either Giannis or Dame they both had a history making night you know and I definitely understand that um and uh Tony also said The Rook technically scored his first points in the inseason tournament uh oh that was in the finals game though so it doesn’t count as stats
Okay and that I understand as well for me though y’all going back to this uh troll on Twitter who who said to me why did you not ask Giannis about the Ruckus why didn’t you ask Giannis what happened because I want to tell y’all from my
Point of view I walk out on the court following the game and the guys always do their team prayer you know following the game um and so you know I wait I knew that Giannis was the one that I was going to be interviewing you know we
Were going to be talking about his record break at night and all of a sudden you know we we see the chaos we see the Jets come on and then you know it’s all systems go and for me I want y’all to understand that you know the responsibility of the team reporter is
To talk about things going on with you know that particular team yes but also to talk about the highlights from the game and the things that are relevant what happened after the game in the tunnel with the game ball was irrelevant it is irrelevant and I want everybody to
Make sure that you know we’re clear on that it’s all noise it’s fluff let’s go ahead and add it to the narrative let’s go ahead and build this rivalry come on I love it for us good script it’s irrelevant though and that’s not going to something that I ask Yannis a TMO who
Just scored 64 points and set a new franchise record I’m not going to ask him what happened to the ball why did you go over there what’s going on I’m G to talk to him about his feelings his emotions his thoughts on breaking the record how excited he is what’s it like
To do it in front of the home crowd what’s it like to do it in front of your family that’s what I’m going to talk about and it’s so so interesting to me because you know I understand that people don’t know what they don’t know and I don’t respond to foolishness
Um and there are a lot of people who responded to his tweet and you know kind of said for me what I I wanted to say but I’m not g to say but it’s just so funny when people try to tell you what how to do your job and what’s the right
Way to go about things because just know that there’s a whole other machine operating that y’all just you you don’t know about and I’m talking directly to the troll I’m sure he’s listening um but yeah let me know your thoughts on that game last night bucks Pacers we’re going
To get into some Draymond Green conversation as well he’s been suspended indefinitely I was expecting 10 plus I’m not going to lie I was expecting 10 plus and mandated counseling and or anger management courses I did not expect the indefinitely they did add on that he will be allowed to practice with the
Team which I’m curious y’all thoughts on that how you feel about him still being in the the practice setting um you know with that team during all of this we’ll get into that conversation a little bit later in the show but give me your thoughts on bucks Pacers everything that
Ensued it got chaotic but let’s be honest the entire game was so physical and it felt very much like a rivalry game it felt borderline playoffs and it’s just so interesting to me because I’ve never viewed the Pacers as a rival for the bucks um and nothing
Disrespectful is just you know when I think of our Rivals I think of no matter what the Bulls record is the Bulls you know what I’m saying like there are certain teams the Celtics like you just have that history the heat you have a certain history with teams and so the
Pacers they’re they came out of nowhere and I’m kind of here for it I like it I see what y’all are doing but what’s it giving for you is it I mean like I said I think it’s irrelevant I think everything that happened is very irrelevant and I think
That there were a lot of emotions and I think that it was a lot of raw you saw a lot of rawness last night like what you witnessed was just pure unfiltered this is what’s happening this is how I’m feeling about it and this is
How I’m going to act on it and I think that’s tough to you know try to judge without being in those individuals shoes people who are saying Yannis you didn’t need that game ball that badly you don’t know what was going on during the game and I’m talking about the things that
Sure you’re watching the broadcast but you’re not really seeing it you hear me you’re not sitting Courtside you’re you’re not there to witness the things that they don’t necessarily talk about but are you know in between everything else and like I said the energy in that
Building as soon as I walked in I felt it I felt like something something was going to happen not necessarily bad or good but it did didn’t feel like it was going to be a normal Wednesday in Milwaukee fic Ser Forum give me your thoughts we’re going to go ahead and
Break um on that note we’re going to keep talking Buck Pacers and talking about the fact that records are being broken real casually with this Buck Squad and the fact that there are a lot of people saying you know we still got to build this we still
Got to you know um figure out this and figure out that and Etc how are y’all feeling about I guess like uh the way that these teammates you know continue to have each other’s backs for one but then also the the chemistry and the communication that we’re seeing
Evolve with each game especially during this home stand um with they’re 10 they’re now 11 and one after last night at fer Forum this season which we know is a good opportunity for them um you know to not only practice but also to uh play in front of the home crowd because
That crowd is electric I’m telling you that much they love their team but I want to know what what are your thoughts on the game last night do you think the NBA or excuse me the the Pacers Rook keep saying NBA the Pacers Rook deserve that game ball over Giannis

Go to Mike uh somebody said that they read uh a tweet a a comment they were like you can score 64 again but you can never get get back your first NBA bucket and that’s valid but I mean I’m I love that you know you think that it’s it’s that
Simple to just you know go for 64 I mean if anyone can do it again casually it’s Giannis we know that that’s just that’s an interesting sentiment um and y’all know I’m sure you got to know uh they have multiple balls you know what I’m saying there’s a backup in case anything
Happens to the the game ball um so to me it can be symbolic you don’t have to take the one you know the actual physical game ball um as far as the Rook goes but I think I think a new franchise scoring record I think a new career
Scoring record warrants a game ball that’s just me and I’m trying not to like come off as biased but I I really don’t think I’m crazy for feeling that way what’s up Mike how you doing what are your thoughts on the game last night hey what it do Melanie um the game last
Night was EX I mean um to your point of you not thinking the Indiana Pacers as a I guess relevant uh Contender or or um villain to the Bucks I I agree uh they did come out of nowhere but the Hollenburg guy uh he really stepped up as far as the ball
The game ball um the Pacers I think they were a little salty that’s what that was and they took the ball and they tried to go ahead and uh give it to their Rook uh but that’s absolutely wrong if if anything if Giannis didn’t get the ball
D needed to get the ball um they were at home they did that in front of the home crowd uh they deserve that ball so I don’t understand what the Pacers were thinking about other than they were just salty about the situation and how they got handled last
Night no I definitely hear that now as far as you know just the commot and everything that went down during the game how do you feel about that because you know kind of segueing just a little bit into the Draymond Green situation you know a lot of I feel like a lot of
Fans are saying online you know you want the NBA to be more physical but then you know y’all draw the line at like a Draymond situation what did you think about the physicality in last night’s game because I I forget how many uh texts were given but there were a lot um
You know there were some flagrance so I’m just curious like you know how do you feel as a fan seeing that type of physicality in today’s NBA well as a fan you know and talking and I’m talking directly to other fans uh that you know um think certain things
They first off we need to relax this is a great team a great built team uh we had the Dame of course losing Drew uh it hurts uh but you know to substitute the offense that Dame brings to the game uh um and Drew you know I
Guess the defensive side of things we lose but the team in the whole can hold down the defensive side um as far as the physicality um I think that it shows grit it shows fight in the team that me I’ve been a bucks fan since
The 80s and um you know the 80s team had had grit and grind uh so did uh the early 2000 team with Ray and and uh big dog and all them they had some grit and grind on it uh but I love to see that uh
The the passion for the game the passion to uh you know win the game uh I love to see that uh as far as Draymond Draymond is a little OC he went a little too far uh you punching people and choking people slamming people kicking people that’s just that’s that’s not part of
The game anymore you know early or late 80s uh in the 90s it was really physical like that to where you can kind of like basically do like hockey and fight you know it was breaks for fights and things like that but they had to eliminate that
Because there’s a a high value on these players now you can’t use that type of physical play uh in the game anymore so I do like to see the Bucks though uh with the the grit and the grime and and and just fighting for that W so they had
To you know set precedent for the game because we kind of got ran at during that that tournament with the Pacers so that was great to see I hear you Mike appreciate you hope you have a wonderful rest of your day and thanks for calling in um to summarize is giving send a

But like I don’t know situation it’s just it’s so crazy cuz like I don’t I still don’t know what to make of it I would really say this is The Passion of the game that that’s what we saw last night we saw Giannis an DMO be passionate about a
Game that he so much loves you know what and I’m pretty certain I got a caller right now who’s passionate about the game as well let me let me see who’s on the phone lines real quick well what’s interesting is somebody in the talk to text they said what made the Pacers mad
Is that the Bucks kept their starters out there when the game was won I’m really happy this person said that cuz I want to comment on that that’s not true uh Griff took the starters out and guess what the Pacers did they stormed back and they got the
Game within 10 with two minutes to go we’re not about to let Giannis break records and Dame break records and us have the home court advantage and not get this win you feel me and the Pacers are a problem okay I’m I I’ll give them all the respect all the flowers because
They are a problem and I guarantee you if we would not have put our starters back in that game probably would have gotten even closer because that’s the time that they were on they were on oh we got two minutes plenty of time that’s what they were on so I’m so happy that
Texter said that because I was also seeing that rhetoric online and that’s so not like come on y’all that’s just I I I don’t know I just thinking it’s funny but like I also have to remind myself that you know my common sense is not someone else’s common sense and I
Have to remind myself that like everybody thinks very differently and sees situations differently but to me that’s such a like it’s just such a black or white like situation it’s not gray like it’s I I thought it was very obvious because it’s not like he kept the starters in Griff took the starters
Out and put them back in when when the Pacers went on like a 145 run with 2 minutes left and you know it was now a 10-point differential that they could have very well turned into a fivepoint and then a three-point and now we’re potentially going into OT no come on so
Thank you for texting that because I uh I definitely forgot that people were saying that after the game what’s up the town how you doing what are your thoughts how you doing I’m doing well thank you you know what hold on real quick before you get into it let me ask
You and I’m putting you on the spot why do people when some like I just asked you how are you doing and instead of you responding to me you asked me how am I doing why don’t you want to answer that question because I people do that
Why is that okay number one number one I’m doing great I’m doing great just got off from out of town getting my son from uh from college I did a 10hour drive from Aline South Dakota so if you want to know really how I was doing that’s what you know what
I’m saying I’m really I’m really running on no sleep I’m running on no sleep but it’s all good I to go get myself Stu in college so and you know what the town you got to do what you got to do shout out to you for being dad of the year I’m
Serious too um but I I appreciate the honesty in your response because last thing I’ll say about it that’s something else I thought which is when you ask somebody how they’re doing do you really want to know you really want to know right face that’s funny but anyway what are your
Thoughts on this one hey um number number one um they trying to come at the Bucks where they all them little things with um with the coaching and stuff this is going to be a long series and I I mean the long series is like we’re going to
See those guys in the playoffs you can just see you you can just see that happening it’s going to be a showdown between the Bucks and and the Pacers and it’s hotly contested and that’s good basketball that makes for good TV it’s it’s really it’s all good now what now like you know
That movie um what’s the movie um men society when when when old dog was um sitting with the um sitting with the detective and the detective was like you know you done messed up right that’s what Indiana done did you know you m dog
And that’s I’m I swear to you I saw that exact scene last night in my head I swear to you town they woke up they woke up asleeping giant that’s what they really did they got Giannis really angry and when jannis is really angry there’s no force in the
NBA that can stop him and they know this so they done mess up for one so that’s good for us that’s that’s good for us and it shows the bucks now like they are the hunted and we got to be most serious about every team and we got to we got to
Put our throat on their necks perally you know what I’m saying like you got not play around with none of these teams you know this all good for the B it’s a good Learning lesson for for it to be such so early in the season you know and
Ab I think they gonna get it I think they gonna get it together uh Indiana they’re young they’re young Gunners they’re young Gunners and they’re upand comers and like and you know when you were young Gunner you try to take your respect from anywhere you can and this
Is you know what I’m saying because in this case the Bucks got all the respect because the Bucks Are the Champions the Bucks has the MVP they have the darling of the league they have everything that the Indiana Pacers want so it’s natural that the um the Indiana will go out
There and try to go take it it’s good basketball now last thing I say because I don’t want to um go too long but um that compared to um Draymond Green that’s Draymond Draymond that’s not playing hard that’s not that’s not any any um coaching thing that’s
Straight dirty play and we got to call it how it is you know that’s that guy that guy’s a dirty player I appreciate no I appreciate that Honesty the town because thank you so much I hope I have a good rest of your day and make sure you get some sleep but
No I agree with that last sentiment because I think uh similar to oh my gosh now I’m forgetting what it was but there was something recently where y’all got so upset because you were all like uh y’all just trying to cut down a black man and y’all won’t do this and I’m like
But y’all are not holding our people accountable your people accountable men I need you to hold other men accountable and that’s what I appreciate about this Draymond thing and about what the town just said we have to hold that man accountable period because guess what is going to continue to happen and that’s
Exactly what did this is literally incident number like seven or eight of like true physicality I’m talking like choking punching slapping grabbing like come on somebody has to hold him accountable So yeah thank you for that the town um also he has some really good thoughts too on the game let’s go ahead
And get to Norm we’re talking bucks Pacer still how you doing Norm what are your thoughts on the game from last night M what’s up the game was wonderful and um I’m glad to see that somebody starting to hold up for the bucks you know fighting whatever it takes cuz
Other teams are doing it but but another thing I call for is Mel you are doing it and now you known in United States the whole United States that you are somebody it ain’t too many young ladies are doing what you doing you don’t never let them put you down just keep doing
What you doing you gonna get a lot of criticism it’s going to be haters it’s going to be people that congratulate you you moving on up girl move moving on up to the east side thank you Norm I appreciate you that was that was very sweet Norm wow you know what’s funny
About him saying that though y’all when I did see that tweet I was like let me find out I got my first hater though I miss be doing something right though cuz somebody else commented on my outfit from like a few games ago and I’m
Like first off don’t tell me how I look because I was wearing that dress so I just thought that was funny because I I literally exactly what Norm just said cuz that’s what people have told me they were like you know you’re doing something when you start to have haters
Because people are just trying to find reasons to knock you down and I’m not that way like people who know me in real life and those who listen to this show on The Daily y’all know I am not at all somebody I’m not cocky you know I don’t
Big myself up I’m the opposite to a fault um and so Ben don’t don’t don’t Gemini right now I’m not in the moood for any Gemini Shenanigans okay yes please stand down please Ben that’s all I ask that’s all I it’s Thursday B see I
I wasn’t going to turn my mic on I was but now you over here giving me a command like I’m some kind of dog I said please no no you said stand down I said please stand down go talk to Paul and Mabel like that all right just cuz those
The only people you associate with you so socialize with that’s not how you talk to regular people I’m like sit sit Ben Ben sit be quiet stoping good boy I’m done do you want to treat I’m done with you dog dog um but also I want to I
Want to comment on what Norm said about this you know rivalry unlocked so I agree with you the Pacers have Unleashed a beast okay and what’s crazy y’all because the NBA is probably loving this we got the Pacers next on January 1 so yes we are going to start off
2024 playing the Pacers at five sir Forum um and this is not a plug I’m honestly saying this because of what uh Norm not Norm my gosh the town the town said get your tickets now y’all because it’s giving a movie okay it’s giving movie I’m just saying I’m just saying we
Play the Pacers on New Year’s Day at 7 o’clock so you can still go out the night before and have time to recuperate before the 7 tip and then and then y’all we go to Indiana two days later yeah yes we have the Pacers at home on the 1 and
Then we play at Indiana on the third I’m sorry you can’t write a better script people talk about the NBA script and I’m not going to lie to you there’s some things that happen where I’m like I know there’s just no way that it can be going
This well like it’s it’s reading like a book there’s got to be something happening there’s got to be some manipulation you feel me no this is just real life baby this is just the script Unwritten okay it this is just live entertainment and at the end of the day
Y’all have to remember that’s what it is it’s entertainment it’s not life or death you know we’re not operating on somebody’s skull we’re not delivering you know um life-changing news to somebody It’s Entertainment these are men who play basketball for a living and I just it’s so interesting to me when people
You know get so up in arms about everything and I’m not going to police your feelings your emotions I’m always going to validate folks even if I don’t understand you I’m going validate how you feel but it’s just so interesting to me the people who really do I mean they
Take to heart these things that happen I’m like y’all it’s going to be okay it’s fun it’s exciting like he said it’s all about passion and my God I’m glad stuff like this is happening it keeps everything interesting and you know what Ben I’m going to go ahead and credit the
Inseason tournament for this cuz I don’t think last night would have happened if the n Season tournament wouldn’t have happened so guess who we can say thank you to Mr Adam Silver thank you Adam you are writing the perfect script and as a basketball fan I thank you for it what’s
Up black conscious long time no talk how you doing I’m well my sister much you I’m done with you dog you’re so crazy so Gemini what’s question bigger question is did he get the ball I honestly don’t know and neither does he so after the
Game um when he was talking to the media he said they gave him a ball but he said it didn’t feel like the game ball and he was like I touched that game ball you know 100 plus times and it does not feel like the same ball I had during the game
Now he may have still you know emotion may have still been high you know adrenaline was still flowing so perhaps he feels a little bit differently today but I believe him I do and I’d like to think that he got the game ball but I don’t
Know no I don’t feel he did because that was such a disrespect to accomplishment now I get what the Indiana Coach was saying but that’s crap because that’s when you at home you get that you don’t get to do that on somebody else it it ain’t one point his first point over
Over a man doing franchise career high that’s crap but Hey listen I know you’re ending your show I wish I had more I’ll call you sometime Cameroon Africa it was life altering and I’ll never look at things the same nor complain about the things the simple things in life I love you
Guys I love you Milwaukee peace and blessings a black conscious I love that hope you have a good rest of your day I kind of hate that you dropped the mic like that cuz now I want to hear about your trip but it’s cool no I appreciate you calling in it was
Good to hear from you black conscious um and that’s the thing I’m so happy he said that stop sweating the small things I love how passionate basketball fans are Bucks fans NBA fans but my goodness like it I don’t know it it almost like makes me laugh and I’m not trying to
Laugh at anyone but like all you can do is laugh at some of the things that people are saying about and the opinions that people pose I mean my gosh I’d like to think because I like to see the good and people that the Indiana Pacers were not
Trying to be you know Mal intended one thing I will say that I really did not like there was um some audio that came out I saw it on Twitter I don’t know where it came from I don’t know if it was a phone if it was security I don’t
Know cuz I don’t actually I don’t I don’t know how our security cameras work but I I assume that they don’t have audio so this probably came from a phone but it looked like security footage but regardless one of the players and I’m not going to say who um go find the
Audio yourself it’s on Twitter I I don’t want to call anybody El specifically but one of the players they they said like oh you took his ball I like that I like that yeah keep that ball don’t give it back and that I didn’t like I didn’t um I didn’t
Like that at all I thought you know that’s where well because you’re a petty Gemini um and you have an Android and you so you guys are just mad um I I I thought it was petty and that’s where I don’t like for things to go because at
The end of the day y’all all are playing the same game y’all are all in the same fraternity and you are though Ben cuz let’s talk about that for a second y’all are in this NBA fraternity I get that there’s going to be the rivalries there’s going to be tensions flaring Etc
But y’all got to protect each other y’all got to look out for each other that’s a Brotherhood Hood so similar to the Draymond thing like Draymond is not protecting his brothers he’s going against his brothers you feel me and I don’t like when I hear somebody from the
Opposing team he knows that Yannis was passionate about taking that game ball home and giving it to his mom by the way Giannis don’t have like a ball rack at home with all his game balls like he literally gives them to Veronica and and maybe the player don’t know all that but
My point you know at this point Giannis is back here he’s upset he wants that game ball he set a new franchise record 64 points scored it’s a big deal you’ve never scored 64 and you know that y’all took the ball for your Rook who scored one point off a
Free throw and you over here clapping I like that yeah don’t give him that ball back yeah I like that that’s where I got upset I saw that video In My Blood started boiling cuz I think that’s really not okay and that’s the only opinion I’m going to give on the entire
Situation cuz that was one thing that I was like that’s foul that’s foul you don’t do that like that’s really not okay that’s like on some n n boo boo but like y’all are grown men y’all are Ben said so see I can’t but guess what that’s the difference between a man and

NBA following his ejection during the Suns Warriors game on Tuesday night for swinging and making in contact with Yousef nurkic in its announcement the league said that green will be quote required to meet certain league and team conditions before he returns to play The League took quote into account Green’s repeated history of
Unsportsmanlike acts when determining the suspension I agree with that you have to um because you know it’s a pattern now let’s be honest and can I just tell you guys um and I am talking specifically to the men I am very and I promise you I’m
Not I’m not trying to be like belittling I’m proud of y’all for holding him accountable for this because I like honestly I do think that there are far too many instances where men don’t hold other men accountable and I get why because you want to protect
Your own what it’s not that then what is it Ben because y’all love to protect your own you love to protect Darius Dalton Jackson when he’s abusing the mother of his child and he’s telling us that he’s doing it by posting subliminals but y’all don’t want to believe it until there’s actual concrete
Evidence okay and even then so first of all okay I just want to say this we’re talking about Draymond Green and did he y’all want to protect and even though there was a whole lawsuit that was settled when it comes down to Draymond Green I think what the NBA was trying to
Do is protect their boy the Draymond Dalton and Diddy keep going me personally me personally I said Draymond something needed to happen with Draymond PR to all of this once I saw him uh punch Jordan P I was like no that that’s just too far that’s your own teammate so
What is he goingon to do with the rest of everybody else but it’s speaking of uh men holding other men accountable I’m glad they’re doing this with Draymond Green personally I’m still waiting for Josh giddy from the uh from OKC the Oklahoma Thunder to uh to be reprimanded
Or something happened with him for messing around with happen though that’s alleged Ben stop don’t say things that you don’t know but Ben you cannot say something that you don’t know is fact I want them to investigate it how about thate I leave it there age I’ll leave it
There I’m trying to protect men and women men and women believe I believe that little girl I’m standing I believe her I’m standing on business do that if I was Adam Silver it’ be a little bit different I love that Ben just had to bring that up cuz somebody’s talking
About it and it’s the truth why are we not talking about Josh giddy NBA do something about that all right I don’t want to talk about Josh cuz it’s disgusting I mean you can talk about saying I don’t want like the thought of this grown man with a like I can’t even
In the NBA I can’t even say it man okay he’s also Australian so they do things different in that country I think an Outback you all right all right with that being said we’re going to go ahead and wrap things up Ben Jam appreciate you on the ones and twos always thank
