Juju Gotti 0:26
Welcome to the alley-oop, man. The edited version only over here. You got to know it, man. I am Juju Gotti, and my sister Trista Crick is beside me as always. How you doing, my sister?
Trista Crick 0:39
Ready, locked in, and willing, sir, to besmirch.
Juju Gotti 0:44
The Besmirch Show. I love it. Let's get right into it. Speaking of besmirch, hold on. When I bring these fellas up, I need to hold one of these. My boy has been besmirched ever since Reggie Miller put his name on a sentence. The world act like they didn't know. The world act like they forgot my boy was a duck. You did, green and yellow style. Your mans, my mans, Peyton Pritchard, welcome back. Have you seen my boy cooking? What do you think about your alumni?
Trista Crick 1:18
Portland legend, too, Peyton Pritchard. Come on, man. So put some respect on that man's name, Juju. Remember, it's not so long ago, Juju, when Peyton Pritchard was ready to get up out of Boston because they didn't want to give him his role. They didn't want to give him his bread. And they were like, just hang on. We're getting old. We're getting expensive. Just stay here. Just accept your role for now. 18 points per game. Six assists per game. Shooting 37% from three. 47% from the field juju. Just put up a 30 piece against the Lakers. 26 against Golden State. Like four out of five games he's had 24 or more. So our guy is putting on a show for him.
Juju Gotti 2:05
Come on, man. And guess what? He averaging 6.3 ankles per game, too. Come here, Jared Vanderbilt. No, no, Vando. Come here, Austin Reeves. White on white crime. Black history month. It don't matter. Come here. Like, bro, my boy out there looking like, damn me, if he play like this, he can't be sixth man of the year again because he already disqualified himself from having to step in. But... He would be well on track to get that six-man of the year if he was eligible. Bro, damn, you can't go too far. Because can a most improved player be the six-man of the year last year? Or how does that work? I know you know.
Trista Crick 2:45
Well, he's not going to win that. You know who should win that, though? Who that? This isn't on our rundown.
Juju Gotti 2:49
Who that?
Trista Crick 2:50
Anthony Black, I love Denny, and I think Denny should win it, but there's a real case to be made for Anthony Black. Starts working with the sham god, and all of a sudden starts snatching ankles, doing turnaround threes from the corner, looking really freaking good, looking like a franchise guard, looking like not the problem of Orlando's offense.
Juju Gotti 3:12
Exactly. Looking like a Jackson 5 member. Too perfect, Afro. Come on, man. Salute the blackness. Come on, man. Great hair to hair on my boy.

What are the early MVP predictions for this NBA season?

Juju Gotti 3:21
Moving on, though, man. It's been some drama. It's been some drama. We're going to step away from the association for a quick little second because my dog went to the game last week. Remember, she was at LSU versus South Carolina, and we know South Carolina got the best of them, as they have been doing for the past umpteen times, neither here nor there. But then afterwards, Flage, her mama took the social media, man. She said, and don't quote me, but quote me. She said, Flage winning in life, man. She don't give a damn about this game. Y'all worry about this game. Flage already beating y'all in life. And yes, we still lost.
Unknown 4:01
But are we losing in real life? Flage beat every player on that court. That night.
Juju Gotti 4:08
Flage got this. Flage doing this better than y'all. Flage can eat better cereal than y'all. Flage can do a yo-yo better than y'all. Like, what did you think about sis stepping up and speaking out for her daughter?
Trista Crick 4:25
I've got a mom that's very vocal online.
Juju Gotti 4:29
Yes, salute.
Trista Crick 4:30
And it's just like, can you stop? You know? Please. And I love Kia. Kia's a mama juror in all things. She helps navigate the NIL waters for her daughter, who's a full-on brand.
Juju Gotti 4:46
Yeah.
Trista Crick 4:47
But these mamas... Need to slow down. It makes you look a little petty. And it's throwing a little dirt on Flage that she doesn't deserve. And it's causing and pointing directions and spotlight on you that you don't want.
