Who are the hosts of Alley Oop episode 6?
It's a classic, but don't play that in the car. If you ride around the car, this is all we do is win. Call 911 on that car.
That might be a serial killer. Ain't nobody normal. Just driving around, listening to all I do is win.
Rise, go. Thank you so much, Rise. You are my sister. I will always consider you family. You feel me?
Oh, I definitely feel you. And that means a lot to me. And I'm really thrilled to see that, you know, you're building out this lane and this show, you know, for yourself. When I heard that, oh, Juju's doing, you know, something new and cool and his own with Ball, which also you do, I know you do the men's and the women's. I was like, oh, I want to pull up. Like, so excited for you. Congrats. And Keep doing your thing. Keep being you. Like, I think that's the difference, right?
Yeah. We got playoff basketball happening right now. We got the Knicks, Pistons. We got Warriors, Rockets. What series right now entices you the most?
I live in California, so I was up watching, you know, the West Coast series. I was watching the Clippers and the Nuggets last night. And I know, I know. You know, I've always got my eyes on the Warriors. You know, one of these things that stands out to me in the playoffs is that in the calendar year of 2025, like... The vets still vetting. They still got it. These old superstars, they still them guys. They just know how to win, you know? Like, look at Kawhi right now. You miss a whole year, come back, and look like you never missed a beat.
Right. People forget, too, Kawhi is, like, returning to form, but Kawhi is in year 14 doing this stuff. So even a healthy guy in year 14, holy moly, the vets are vetting.
especially over there in the Warriors yeah that's what they got versus like the Houston Rockets and all the other teams what you think about that series as soon as the Warriors lined up against the Rockets I was like I know the Rockets gotta be tired of the Warriors I know they gotta be tired of the Warriors in the postseason because they just keep knocking them just one team out and it's different generations of Rockets being tired of the Warriors and now you got this new era of Rockets these young guys trying to bust out and the old guys won't let them in Draymond, Steph and so you know I just think at this time of year What's showing is experience still matters. Knowing how to win still matters. And also being Steph matters. Like, you know, period, right? Being Steph Curry helps. No, but like... Going up against the defense of the Rockets against him was physical. It was athletic. It was youthful. It was eager. And, like, what impressed me was Steph's cuts to the basket off the ball or with the ball.
You know, we're going to watch all the highlights of Steph shooting threes when it's all said and done and making tough shots and actually coming out of that game making some tough threes. But for me, it was the reads against very physical, tough defense to the cup. Steph's always been really nice off the bounce to the basket and finishing.
Right. And let that be a lesson to the kids out there. It ain't all about the highlights that Steph be doing. Bro, you track Steph from the check ball down on the side. Bro, he be running through 17 screens, getting his jersey grabbed, fighting through it, then end up with the ball, still have enough energy.
for that swish so get your conditioning training in together you feel me that's what being a big boy is you know whether it's Jimmy Butler or Stephen Curry or even you know Draymond Green or somebody coming up with the play you know or a stop or just a read that makes sense and so like at least for game one, you know, the Warriors had the Rockets card, but I do think that the Rockets' youth, growing experience, hunger, their athleticism over the course of a series may wear on the Warriors. I think that was a really tough, I think it was hard work what Steph pulled off. That game was physical against him, and he's going to have to do that throughout a series.
