Logan Murdock 0:14
What's poppin'? Real ones. We are live from Los Angeles and Sycamore. And I have entered the Ringerverse. Wow. I have my guy Van Lathan. I have my guy Joe Me I Dener. And we are here to play a game of Heroes versus Villains, Ringer NBA edition. Now, this is a pretty easy thing. We're gonna each pick our team of five players of heroes and villains. Right. We're gonna do a round robin style. We have a list right here. of that I've made with the help of Van Um and the help of uh Victoria as well um of just potential names that we have that we can use for that and we also have an extra set of um blank slates that that Van has um and that we can add for the time being. Are you guys ready to do this? It's really happy to see you.
Logan Murdock 1:05
Are you guys doing okay? Are we
Jomi Adeniran 1:06
doing phenomenal I'm great thanks for letting me into your home Thanks for letting me into your home.
Logan Murdock 1:08
I feel great. I feel great. Let's start the show. Before we start it, um, I just want to give a quick shout out to our guy, Jamie, here. He is going to be our official picker for this show for the next uh couple of hours. Okay, guys, I I've I've I've seen you guys' work. Let's chill out. I'm the host here. Let's relax. Okay, we're gonna start with Van. We're gonna start with Heroes. Who was your first pick for heroes?
Van Lathan 1:32
My first pick from Heroes is Anthony Edwards. Oh yeah. Yeah.
Logan Murdock 1:38
All
Van Lathan 1:38
right. I think he's one of the biggest heroes in the league. Do I go over here and put it over here? No, our guy Jamie is going to be the official picker. I think he is one of the people that we all want to take the reins. Yes. I think this year with a different supporting cast, we've upgraded the team a little bit. Yeah. It's gonna be a very fun season for him.
Logan Murdock 1:56
Now, do you believe that w the moves that the Timberwolves have made are actually upgrades or is it going to lead to hubris?
Van Lathan 2:02
I think they're grades. Whether they're up or down, we have to see. Depends how everybody but they they they grading like a motherfucker. Nah, he was
Jomi Adeniran 2:12
he was absolutely on my list too as a hero. I think with the addition of Lomelo, you get dubious handles out of there, replace him with Jonathan Kaminga. There's a chance like he has an opportunity to do what nobody's ever done in Chibro's history and get it to the finals now. Is it gonna be like impossible? Maybe kind of. But if he could do it. He he he's the man, man. He's it cements himself We want it for Ant. That's why we
Van Lathan 2:37
do we want it for Ant too bad though. No, we want it for Ant. That's another reason why Chill out. Just you know. Don't make it hard for yourself. And I'm not gonna get a person Just don't Are you gonna are you bringing higher learning into the ringer? Is that what he's doing? It's just like three podcasts at once. It's not a person. No, just you know, just keep you know, keep the main thing, the main thing. I think that he I think as a for a person that Person
Logan Murdock 3:02
that has all of the stuff around him that you are alluding to, I think he does the best job of like handling that once he's on the court. I have made this point uh a lot during my time in Los Angeles that Anthony Edwards should be known as a guy that, you know, similar to how we look at Lucas, similarly how we even look at Wimby as the one guy that can elevate a team that you can just pencil his team in to a certain point based on the fact that he is on the roster. Yeah. And I think he has been able to do that over the last few scenes uh last few seasons, despite all the hubis around him. So I I I think that is a great all that to say, I think that was a great pickup by you. Yeah. I'm actually jealous.
Logan Murdock 3:38
My
Van Lathan 3:39
My, this is my hope for Ant, that he continues to elevate to that elite level. My brother said that he is essentially Spider Mitchell with good market.
Logan Murdock 3:49
That's insane. That's that's so disrespectful. By the way, it's
Van Lathan 3:52
disrespectful to Spider, who I actually love as a player, right? But I love Spider. That's disrespectful to Anthony Edwards. But it's disrespectful to Anthony Edwards. But I will say this for all of his prodigious talent, putting it to all together in the playoffs, on the team, and becoming that elite top.
