If a baby is giggling in the backseat, they're probably happy. If a baby is crying in the backseat, they're probably hungry. But if a baby is sleeping in the backseat, Will you remember they're even there? When you're distracted, stressed, or not usually the one who drives them, the chances of forgetting them in the backseat are much higher. It can happen to anyone.
Parked cars get hot fast and can be deadly. So get in the habit of checking the backseat when you leave. A message from NHTSA and the Ad Council. What you mean, as a coach or as a player?
Hold on. Cheryl Miller on NBC Today said, right now it's frustration, and unfortunately it's boiling over, and it's being seen. It's one thing to have it behind closed doors, but when it spills over, when the coach has to say basically, hey, you know what, Kalen? Enough is enough. This is too disruptive. In or out, take a seat. Hey, listen, I respect coaches like that, bro.
When you can challenge your best player and your best player responds, I ain't talking about it in a way to where it seems like they got an attitude and they don't want to do it.

Chapter 4: What controversies surround Caitlin Clark's behavior on the court?
But, you know, maybe you're right. Let me lock in. You know what I mean? Like, I ain't ā the back and forth is not a bad thing to me, fellas. You know, it happens from time to time. When you police some players, this is what comes with it. And if you can't police your best player, bro ā then it's always going to be a problem. But the problem is, Joe, this is not isolated. It's every night.
She doesn't play defense. Why are you trying to drop a play offensively? Guard your man defensively. Look, y'all know me. I've been in Kaitlyn Clark's corner. But enough is enough now. I'm tired of her behavior. I'm tired of the shoving. I'm tired of the elitism. I'm tired of the entitlement.
Chapter 5: How do the hosts compare coaching styles in the NBA?
Enough is enough. Play basketball. She's not holding up her end. And I love Stephanie White for this. It was a very similar situation where LeBron was trying to draw up something when Ty Lue first got the job. And Ty Lue said, I got this. Right. Got to let them know who in charge. Ain't nothing wrong with a little passion. Where is that passion on defense? Y'all say she got passion.
Where is the passion on defense? Because guess what everybody doing? What they doing, Joe? Attacking her. Yep. The same thing they do with all scores when you don't play. Luca, the best scorer in the NBA. Tell me where they go. That's how you offset it.
Chapter 6: What are the challenges faced by top athletes in managing expectations?
Make their ass work on defense.
Yeah.
You think you finna just come down? Huh? You think you finna just come down and average 25, 30 points a night and ain't gonna have no pushback on defense? We finna make your ass gone. What? We gonna make you work that. We gonna seek you out every time. I love the fact that, Joe, that you're on here and you get it.
What a lot of times I don't think people get and people are like, oh, I love passion. If your coach can't coach you, you might as well just go and get them up out of there. Yeah, you got to go. It won't be long because if your best player keeps disrespecting you, they're not going to respect you either. Right. The only reason it worked in New England, Ochoa, was why?
Because Coach Belichick got the ultimate respect from Tom Brady. If your best player doesn't respect you, you might as well just go and get you another coach. Absolutely right.
I totally agree.

Chapter 7: How do the hosts feel about the parity in the current NBA season?
Every night is something. She's pushing somebody. She's subbing somebody. She's doing something. And I've given you the benefit of the doubt. And I understand you missed last year. You're trying to get your rhythm back. But enough now. Come on now. You're too good of a player. But you can't just play one end of the court. Right. And don't show your coach up.
If you want to be passionate, be passionate on both ends of the court. Seems like you want to be passionate when they draw up this play. No, no, no, no, no, no, no. I can't draw up no play. Hell, you getting cooked on nothing. I draw up a defensive play. Make that one work.
Chapter 8: What future matchups are the hosts looking forward to?
That's the play I want you to play. Yeah. Hey, the thing about trying to show your culture, bro, like especially in the NBA, if you got 30, 32 other teams watching, Man, nobody wanna deal with that, bro. Nobody wanna deal with no damn headache. What'd you say, tolerance over productivity? Production intolerance. They only gonna deal with so much, bro. They only gonna deal with so much.
And the problem is, Ocho and Joe, and you know this, is that when the production slip, you gone. They don't let guys that be great and been a problem, they don't let them stay long. Oh, they waiting for that moment. Just a little, oh yeah, he came. Get up out of there. Got to get him out of here. Absolutely right. Enough, enough. I've seen enough. I've watched enough games.
There's always something. She pushing players. She stepping on players. You don't catch the right young lady. You don't catch the right one on the wrong day. My grandma used to tell me, I remember, I used to say, oh yeah, okay. Y'all gonna catch the right one, but it's gonna be the wrong day. Absolutely. Hey, you gotta take some accountability. Yes.
I know we talk about that a lot, but she has to accept that part, bro. You know, showing up your coach ain't gonna be a good look. And you got your teammates, bro, who gonna look at you different. Now, they may not tell you, but they gonna look at you different. Because they understand you kind of been coddled since you got here. Everybody has bent over kind of backward to appease you. Yeah.
Yeah. Randy used to tell us all the time, boy, don't be ugly. Make people don't like you. Facts. Facts. Well, I don't like them either. Yeah, she got to fix that, Ojo.
Yeah, I mean, you know, and for me, I mean, I hear both of you talking. To me, it's not enough. It's not enough. You understand who she is. You understand how she plays the game. And a player showing passion in that magnitude in that moment, I don't think she means it.
Is that what they called it when you did it? Oh, well, you know how I am when I do it. You know that, and you know why. It's passion. You want to win. It's passion, but I'm a repeat offender, and I don't have the leeway to be able to do it. She's a repeat offender. Ocho, you need to watch her game. I need you to do me a favor.
The next time they play, watch her game, and watch her antics on the court. Right. I see the highlights sometimes. Watch it. I watch. Right, right, right. In chat, y'all know I've been one of her biggest proponents. I've been in her corner. I've been a champion. I don't tolerate this kind of behavior. Right. Mm-mm. So you wanted to take just the... I wanted to play. I want to let the coach coach.
She already got one coach fired. The first coach she got to fight, she was fired. Stephanie White just got there. And they gave the Aces all they could handle, and they didn't have Kaitlin Clark. Kaitlin Clark is not playing any defense. They're attacking her. Yeah, she got to tighten up. At some point in time, for a coach to be worth his or her merit, you got to draw a line. Yep.
