Day 2 of the NBA Play-In is over and I think I love the Bulls again... Plus Jimmy Butler's Heat took an L to Embiid and the 76ers.

We had Kofie on the pod today as well: ua-cam.com/users/liveYIR13Cv17Rc
I absolutely love the highlights shown while your talking.
Kind of reaching I guess but it’d be cool if when mentioning a certain play from a player, that highlight is shown. Would be great, love you rusty!
Pick the home teams
we love kofie!!!!
Batum beat the “4th quarter wtf batum in” allegations
i wish he said this in the video
-rudy
trending on x with that bro lmao
What does that mean?

Rusty would lose his house, if he started betting on ball 😂😂😂 (don't gamble guys)
@@xxcoopxyessirski
@@xxcoopx🤓hello brother
In that case my house is his
But...but...every NBA media is telling me I should bet! Betting is awesome, nothing bad could ever come from it!!
If you're going to bet on basketball, don't do it to win money, do it to make certain games more interesting to give you something to watch and be invested in. Put $20 on a game you wouldn't normally watch and it'll become more watchable. Do not bet because you need rent money. Me smart people.
My main takeaway from the sixers is that they lose this game by 20+ under doc rivers
💯
Rusty getting the play in picks wrong so he can get all the playoff picks right. Genius
or......... he's going on a legendary 0-15 run in his playoff picks 😂
@@fpl_djhammerthat’s as impressive
@@lietuva5246 no doubt 😂
All his bad luck gonna run out early. Smart man
You cannot convice me Trae Young didn't grow a whole beard overnight, meaning the lollipop got dropped on the carpet twice
Wut ? Hahahahah
Tbf we haven't seen him in 2 months
I have no idea what you're trying to say here bro 😅
Took me a second lol
@@bassmin954 Trae looks like a lollipop that was dropped on a carpet
Bam picked up 2 fouls like 5 minutes into the first quarter thats probably why he played 30 mins
As a Hawks fan, I really don't trust the Front Office to make the right decisions.
Fr
They should just admit they fucked themselves with trae and get rid of him hes terrible.
@@xMtF54xAll right. He isn't terrible. He was last night, but not overall.
I hope Trae gets traded to the Knicks. Would be hilarious to see him play for the team who's fans burn his jersey and chant "fck Trae young"
@kyleshuler2929 why would Brunson and Trae be on the same team they literally the same player😂😂
"ITS A BATUM BANANZA" is probably the wildest thing i have ever heard a commentator say im ngl
my dad (not a bball fan) and I were watching the bulls game and the only comment he had the entire game was "wow. that guy with the big hair is really good"
Wholesome guy
Small guard assessment was right. As a Knicks fan, Brunson has a great team around him including two college teammates with already existing chemistry. If he had Atlanta’s roster, it would be a bad carry job like Trae
Injured Embiid moves like Brook Lopez😂
Ayo Rusty… the way you talk about basketball.. I literally look forward to my lunch times so I can watch your latest episodes.. I live in New Zealand so the time zones get in the way with basketball games.. so it’s so good to be able to listen to a good 30 min episode everyday when I get time.. anyway just want to say big respect for what you and your team does.. keep up the good work
missed opportunity to name the video "its time to traede young"
Had to turn off the video bc of this oversight
I was so pissed when I saw the Jimmy injury. I'm a heat fan and I would've been mad if we lost, but it's so different when we lose by so little after our star player gets hurt pretty bad near the beginning of the game. The fucking scream for Jimmy when Oubre fell on him was horrible to hear.
Yeah y’all with jimmy and the pels with Zion is sad af
@matthewadkins7973 nah fr. I wanted the lakers to win that game but whenever injuries are the reason a game is decided it always leaves a bad taste in your mouth
embiid was hurt as well NO ONE WOULD HAVE GIVEN HIM AN EXCUSE WE DON'T CARE
He got hurt at the beginning of the game? Really and dude already had 18 shots tf is that
@@DahlinSilesile-rc4lkno one would give him an excuse cause Embiid a glass cannon always injured the first few playoff exits people did excuse it but when every single play off exit is “oh the star player is injured” that’s when you start questioning shit. Butler is always available in the playoffs and always performs that’s why people are excusing it for Jimmy he doesn’t always get injured when the playoffs come and elevates instead of falls off
Remember when there was Trae is better than Luka debate
Lol
I can't remember who's ex player podcast said it recently (like a month ago) but it's still going on .
"Nobody lost that trade" is the dumbest narrative still going on
@@matthieusaade3616the problem is the Hawks drafted Cam Reddish
i don't blame Trae he’s still a great player but the Hawks have failed him
Making that up
@hawksgoated3613 the guy plays less defense than any player I'm the league. Great on offense but his play style isn't conducive to winning therefore he is a loser
@@d.columbia9603 not gonna argue with a liar but i will give you an example of why you are
Dame was statistically a worse defender this season than Trae yet its not crippling the Bucks???…also when the Hawks finished the season 28-12 and made the ECF Trae was worse than he was now…he was worse on defense last year also when he took the Celtics 6 games
if it was his defense how come the team is at its worse when he was at his best in this season?
ill tell you…its because you just heard that same defense excuse somewhere else and started using it even though its been disproven now
time to move on from that one now buddy
Insane that 10 FT attempts is now getting to the line “a little bit”😂
Bam only played 30 minutes because he got 2 fouls early and one was on a Embid flop
Not surprised. Softest big ever, whining MVP
Any foul on Embiid is a flop. Dude falls so much and flails around like a wet noodle. I'm surprised Philly management hasn't told him to cut it out before he ends up tearing something whole pretending to get fouled. Dude flies off of people half his size like he got hit by a truck.
Embiid…best center in the nba….haters gonna hate
@@murphybrown1366let me know when he wins another mvp and a ring
No excuses , there’s a whole 24 mins in the second half
Give Coby White that MIP!
I wish jimmy didnt get injured all of the time. He brings so much hype and excitement in the post season
Does anyone know how i can get ahold of Tyler Herro? I have some masonry i need done for the mantle of my fireplace and he seems to be a fantastic brick layer.
I think the Spurs will wait for Trae to request a trade himself, that way they don’t have to give up a lot if they try to get him. Spurs can give back the Hawks picks and probably KJ, Branham, and probably Graham.
Single game elimination is awesome, you don't have to wait 2 weeks to get to elimination games.
Got that warriors streak 😂
New method is to pick the opposite of Rusty’s predicts 😭
who's going to take that deal? He's going from 40mil to 48mil annually in the next 3 seasons, and he can't defend a leprechaun. Going to be painful watching this play out
He’d do good on a team with better paint/team defense. He would go crazy on the magic/twolves/spurs
@@matthewadkins7973 the Spurs wont trade for Trae till the trade deadline at earliest and more than likely the 2025 offseason
Meanwhile I'd love to see Dejounte Murray on the Sixers
@@matthewadkins7973 I agree. You can't play him without elite rim protection to clean up after him. If you could get him at the price of a bench scorer type you have to consider that. But for a guy who only plays one side of the ball he's massively overpaid and it handicaps any team's chances to be competitive. If you're going to pay a dude 50 mil he basically has to be in the mvp conversation to be worth the money.
@@WadaMalonei don't think yall understand how many star players are bad defenders in this league
its just something thats only stuck with Trae sadly and its stupid
@@hawksgoated3613Name those players then?
Guaranteed none of them will be as bad on defence as Trae and that's why it's stuck with him.
As a Spurs fan, please please PLEASE I do not want Trae Young. It would be the right fit for Trae and that’s it. The Spurs notoriously get cooked by guards. Vic is awesome on defense but he can’t protect the rim and the perimeter, so going after one of the worst perimeter defenders would only make that problem worse. Also, the Spurs don’t necessarily need someone who leads the league in assists; they just need someone who can reliably set up Vic and make the smart pass. Just that much will be enough to take the next step in terms of amplifying Vic’s impact. Trae can get you 10 assists sure, but he’s also going to single-handedly lose games because of his shooting woes. He’s going to let every guard he matches up against score 30. I would rather give Atlanta all their picks to get DeJounte back than get Trae Young for half the cost.
I hard agree w you. It's be good for trae and that's it. Draft your teams PG
I agree on Trae. Vic is already a good enough playmaker to get the ball to almost anyone he wants to. He turns the ball over a lot now, but I think as he gets better, those turnovers will decrease. Better to go for a PG who is also a good defender.
It's easy to make one game bets on certain games in the regular season of college basketball because some teams aren't as good as others. If you bet during March Madness or on big games it's a coin flip but other than that there's a huge gap between the best and worst teams.
I've been saying it for years now, the nba is trending towards making shorter guards obsolete unless that guard is hyper athletic and can shoot. The taller guards/point forwards make getting a 6 ft pg kinda dumb especially with offenses now mismatch hunting all the time. Having anyone 6 ft 2 and under on the court makes your team a defensive liability against the smarter, taller teams. The knicks might make some noise this playoffs but watch for teams attacking brunson defensively being the reason they get stopped.
Maxey is debunking this rn, as well as Dame.
I LOVE THE INCREASED QUALITY!!! Great job the extra effort in videos is not going in noticed. Great shit Rusty❤
Imagine if the bulls win the series against Boston in 6 games lolol
The dirty 20 Embiid scored with 10 free throws and atrocious fg percentage are his playoffs career level.
fr can't even breathe on him without the refs D riding tf out of him
Thank you. Really not a positive inpact. I know that there is more than scoring but bro shot like 35%
He still grabbed 15 boards, had a personal 6-0 run that put the Sixers in front, and made a great pass to Oubre under the rim for a key and-one.
@@Bootyboy31A lot of players shot poorly in this game outside of Batum and a few others.
@@Bootyboy31in the 2nd half, he had a very positive impact
Duncan Robinson was injured bro u can't be serious
He was on the active roster 🤷♂️
@@alsorustybucketssame happened last year in the finals with Herro being active in a finals game but didn’t play because spo wasn’t comfortable putting him further at risk…Duncan fs didn’t play bc he’s still hurt
This was a thorough and well done post game wrap up
Whoever gets Trae young is gonna elevate crazy, sucks that Atlanta can’t figure it out.
Nah , u think a 5’11 “ inconsistent, turnover machine, defensive liability is a positive ??
@@him37404 naw wait, u think a 30/10 guy who took your sorry franchise to the finals with no costar is a liability!? Ok trade him and wait for picks 🤷🏾♂️🤣
When he start balling with the spurs, the haters will be quiet
@@him37404give Trae an actual team and he’d be an elite second option
It's Atlanta we were talking about 😂, that franchise is a joke.
Its a real shame embiid is so injury prone.
Ngl, with that facial hair, you look like a young Angry Joe 😂
JB playing 3 qtrs with a sprained MCL is the wildest shit to me. That injury was just dumb luck man
I wanted my Mavs to sign Ayo last summer. Love his game.
Jacob should need to keep a mustache for a round of nba playoffs for each wrong play-in prediction he makes
Rusty liking again the Bulls... Imagine them making an all on trade Next year for Durant.
I’m a hawks fan and even I agree that we should trade Trea young as long as it is decent trade not because I think he is not great but just because I think it is the right move in the bigger picture
I like you Rusty, and this might be my bias as a Hawks fan, but I can’t take your ATL takes anymore. You at least managed to factor in that Jalen was hurt and unavailable, but you didn’t mention that ATL didn’t have Onyeka Okongwu nor Saddiq Bey would have given them length against Chicago and you were quick to write off Trae without mentioning either that he missed 2 months of the season and didn’t look like a huge offensive threat since coming back. He was much more the facilitator albeit a better one than the one we saw in the play-in. The reason Dejounte was the only player who looked good for atlanta was because going into the contest, he was the only one that was able to actually get consistent minutes coming in as Quin Snyder was playing him on a minutes restriction every night. How the FUCK is he supposed to go into a play-in game with any kind of rhythm like that. Maybe that’s an excuse because Coby White went off despite not being in a rhythm ever in his life. But saying the Hawks have to trade trae is just prison of the moment and it’s a casual ass take. Do better.
I question why i watch the videos he has takes on cuz its always clear he doesnt watch them or pay any attention to them. Hawks do need to make a decision on how to proceed because it they arent committed to the future and we aint competing with this team. Also we traded our picks
I really like Trae Young. I know his faults but sometimes he does go off, and if the Spurs could get Trae I think Pop can utilize Tre and improve his consistency
Trae is still a top player. Him and Wemby would make a great combo
Top player ? Outside of good playmaking with lots of turnovers .....
-10 defense
0 rebounds
Average% in efficiency
For god's sake, even Doncic is shooting better from 3 this season
@@matthieusaade3616Doncic is shooting 38.2% from three this season which is good
Bam had 2 fouls like mid-way through the 1st. But yeah, Bam not playing as much was pretty odd.
I'm so glad a fellow Bulls fan sees how absurdly cracked Dalen Terry is as a defender
I'm not sure what they get for Trae Young at this point. I like him in a vacuum on a lot of teams, but that contract might be a problem.
A couple months ago, we were talking about the Spurs giving the Hawks back their draft picks. Today, is there a market for that? The Lakers also have interest, but the Hachimura, Reaves and 3 first round picks we were talking about two months ago doesn't sound particularly appealing either.
as a spurs fan, I will always love Demar. Would love to see him win a chip
You might’ve missed it but bam got 2 quick fouls in the first five minutes of the first quarter so spo took him out and he only played like 10 minutes total in the first half. In the second half it was clear that he wasn’t going to foul out so spo played him normal minutes
Trae Young is not the best player on a winning basketball team. He could be an elite second option to great interior scoring forward or center, but I really think he's not efficient or consistent enough to be the clear leader on a contender
he has yet to play a season with another player who made the all star game also with him
but keep it up bro
Bam got 2 early fouls and missed most of the 2nd quarter but he still could have played more in the 2nd half ig
Weirdly enough, the bulls since january are the 12th best offense and the 27th best defense according to cleaning the glass
Embiid needs some more minutes under his legs. Hard to come back after 2 Months and get limited play time in the remaining games of the season to get tossed into a Play-In game & now the playoffs. If he can keep that Knee safe and continue to condition well during the first 2 Games of the NYK series it could be a dangerous 7th seed.
Just to comment: Spurs and Lakers will show trade interest in Hawks point guard Trae Young. The San Antonio Spurs don’t have much assets to trade for Trae Young other than the Spurs’ multiple good 1st round picks for the next few or several years. The LA Lakers might be able to pull off a Trae Young deal next offseason, but we’ll see.
Also the magic are pursuing any available star guards so maybe if they can come to a deal. I just don’t know what Atlanta would want for trae
*that the magic would be willing to give
I mean the spurs also have the Hawks picks which would prevent them from going in full on rebuild mode if they decide to trade Trae to another team
Wait wtf lol. So you think spurs have less assets to trade than the lakers?😂😂
Are you lakers fans still thinking people are going to accept those bench players and some mid picks? Spurs without a doubt have the better/more attractive players with the better picks😂
Trae on the Lakers is a HORRIBLE fit.
Trae off the ball is not a good idea and we all know LeBron can't live without the ball.
Idk how he picked like this bro I understand choosing the warriors but everything else is a no brainer
The heat gotta get over the Duncan Robinson not being able to play defense thing. Like you said, he is big and can stay in front of someone. Rather have a good offensive guy with bleh defense than a complete non factor on offense out there
Andre Drummond better hope that Caruso can play against the Heat. If not,-as a Chicago native would say-there's gonna be some Bulls-head brothas in his lobby.
12:20 To cut the Sixers some slack, I've watched practically every single Heat game this season and this wasn't just our typical zone. "The Blob" as it was referred to on the broadcast was some of the best defense I've seen my Heat play this year. I think Spo legitimately saves these schemes for the postseason to catch teams off guard. There's no way in hell Nick Nurse wouldn't have had those boys practicing against it if he knew it was coming. The fact they were able to figure it out at all is a testament to how good he and his staff are.
Oh also Duncan most likely didn't get minutes because he's been dealing with a back issue that's had him out the last handful of games. Haywood Highsmith has been an absolute sniper lately so I'm guessing Spo just felt confident enough to trust him in that role. Agreed though, I wish Dunc got minutes.
8:13 because nba players while varying in skill and talent, should always come into the game with full confidence that they can hit every shot they put up, even if they don’t. You don’t become good at anything if your mind is telling you that you can’t do what you’re trying to do. Plus he was hot in that game so there’s nothing wrong with a heat check
To the Pelicans, I completely agree 😃
In all seriousness, what is the direction with the Hawks if they decide to trade Trae? If they trade him to the Pels ,for example, they most likely will get BI or CJ and a ton of picks. With one of those players, what do they plan on doing? I’m honestly really curious
Crazy the year coby white has had
My boy Batum is underrated.
Do you think the Chicago Bulls should trade or release everybody on their team except:
• Colby White
• Ayo Dosunmu
• Patrick Williams
• Jevonte Green (maybe)
Trae Young to San Antonio for:
- 2024 Top 5 Pick
- Keldon Johnson (salary + upside)
- Zach Collins
- Devonte Graham (salary)
- Blake Wesley (salary + upside)
Spurs:
1. Young
2. Vassell
3. Osman
4. Sochan
5. Wemby
6. Jones
Hawks:
1. Murray
2. Bogdanovic
3. Hunter
4. Johnson
5. Capela (likely to be moved)
6. Bey
7. Z. Collins
8. Top 5 Pick (or new asset)
That’s WAYYYY too much for Trae. They’ll probably get two future picks and two of the players you named not all 4
the only thing that could’ve made the broadcast even worse would be to add reggie miller but the only positive about it was that miller doesn’t work for espn
i went 1/4, to be fair the heat and pels both were looking good till injury…
duncan robinson still coming back from injury
Processing is only a weakness for embiid when comparing him to jokic and a select few other bigs compared to the average 7 footer clint capella, Mason plumlee embiid process just as good as any of them
I think Embiid is out of game shape rn. He only came back recently, so hopefully, he gets better as the Knicks series goes along.
This Sixers team is so much better to watch with Nick Nurse as the head coach. With Doc and Brett, this Sixers team would've completely crumbled this game.
the bulls r 21st in defensive rating and 15th in opponent pts per game. around 10th what?
76ers to beat the Knicks confirmed.
Bam had 2 early fouls in the 1st.
Duncan was coming off an injury.
Those 2 early fouls should not have impacted Bam's minutes that much.
@@urbaindelva7869 they were winning sizably in the first half. It makes sense.
Idk if I’d say about embiid’s impact on defense. There were multiple times where he just wouldn’t close out on he shooter
Coby White randomly solving the bulls being shit? Most Improved
embiid not injured in as nimble as shaq while when hes injured he has the mobility of manute bol
Rusty got some drinks in him
Yeah Bam had 2 early fouls which limited his first half mins. Idk why Duncan didn’t play. TYLER HERRO TAKING 27 SHOTS while Bam took 9 SHOTS 😐😐
Rusty you gotta fix that posture
Shaving your beard was the biggest mistake of 2024 Rusty
Man people were talking mad shit but the mustache is growing on me tbh
Looks like Okongwu missed a month from mid Feb to mid March, and only played 2 games in March and then nothing since. 10pts and 7 rebounds and his defense looks like it was sorely missed.
14:30 Bam did get 2 fouls in the first 6 minutes of the game so that definitely is what effected his minutes
Finally a W take!
Betting people let’s fade rusty for the rest of the playoffs 🫡
Hate to see Jimmy get injured, 76ers don’t really stand a chance against NY, but thank god we get to see another new playoff series that we haven’t seen in recent years. Also, it’s been time to trade both Trae Young AND Dejounte Murray and really everybody minus Jalen Johnson and Onyeka Okongwu, one injured game from Trae doesn’t change that at all
Did tou watch the game Bam had two fouls immediately off Embiid flops. And Duncan had been horrible since he came back from a back injury
bam had 2 fouls very early
It was time 2 years ago
Bro went 0/4😂still a big fan though and respect your opinion
bam only played 30 minutes because in the first 4 minutes he had 2 fouls and was 0/4 i think spo was tryna give him a breather to rethink the game an then k love was playing phenomenal defense so he didnt really come back till the 3rd
Duncan Robinson probably didn’t play cause he just came back from a back injury so Spo didn’t wanna risk it even tho I still don’t like that reasoning
Dude went from calling him underrated to TRADE HIS ASS in 5 days ahahah
Batum saved them.. he went crazy
OMG Rusty stay out of my head!! Get Trae Young to the spurs like yesterday!! Spurs should trade for Trae and sign Klay Thompson as a shooter/veteran presence with championship experience. I'd even bring in CP3 for the Udonis Haslem role. Mentorship would do amazing for a young team like that. Look what CP3 did for Shai and the thunder
Love Demar, no way he wins clutch player of the year over JDub ⚡️⚡️⚡️
Duncan Robinson has been hurt, that's why he didn't get any minute...
Its time to realize defensive traffic cones arent franchise players.
Been tryna say this but no, the hawks made the ecf, the hawks made the ecf…
They had the weakest round 1 opponent and ben simmons threw away round 2 for philly
But apparently doing that is an achievement worth building around a traffic cone
so you’re saying Embiid isn’t that great right?
also there are multiple star players who are not good defenders…quit saying this shit only about him bro its lame
First of all, stop lying. The Hawk beat the Knicks in 5 after the Knicks were favored to beat them. The Sixers never should've allowed the series against Atlanta to ge to 7 games, but they did. The hawks did what at they were supposed to do to win that. Also, a number of people have pointed out that Trae was much better defensively this year compared to previous years.
It's crazy these narratives only grow after Trae loses, ofc, he was coming off a surgery that took him off for months, but let's ignore that, still put up 22/10, Shai had am AWFUL Play In last year, nobody said Trade him, but sure, keep that energy
Feel like the hawks are just gonna keep trae around longer than they should so they won’t have to admit they made a mistake in trading away luka on draft night.
