Inside the NBA: Shaq Can't Stop Laughing at Kenny | August 25, 2020 NBA Playoffs

utah jazz trying to close out the denver nuggets man did they continue to shoot that fang shaq i sure did 56 in the first half 63 54 is the utah lead as they lead the series 3-1 and lead here in game five welcome everybody american express halftime report ernie johnson charles barkley weighed on there the jet diesel american express teammates coming your way and it's um on the utah side oh actually on the denver side we're gonna go we're gonna go nico with his 23 and the rest of the starters for denver with 15. one two three cancun and normally what we do is you know the team that's ahead usually we do their their pictures first but i'm just going to take the game chronologically so denver comes into this game shaq needing a win to stay alive and the joker comes out and does not miss yes he uh he came out hot i just asked the guys where they rank them at center and it seems to be unanimous number one number two but look when he plays like this he's on stumble right here that's what you'd like to see is a big man feet work right there great move against the shot blocker and right here he has this ability and you know what if you're shooting them and you make them keep shooting if you're shooting your miss do something else right here he puts it splits the double team they lift the floater right there ernie and look check this player ahead a lot of big guys can't do this so i'm going to say he's the second best seller behind i still got to go with my guy that's more talented than me mr joel more talented than you yes yeah we've had that discussion here several times joel's good joel's really good he's not more talented joker eight for eight including five for five from deep in the first quarter for 21 has 23 at the half but utah just keeps on coming at you man their offense is clicking jen coming at you is what we're talking about the ability to come on if you had waited i turned as slow as i could i couldn't wait anymore man it's like waiting on the turtle you know did come out of his shell but anyway the one thing about donovan mitchell what makes him great everyone says he's so i hit those threes and but he just has already said keeps coming at you and his ability to come at you so when you get the ball and freeze it most guys would have taken that three but he says no i if i have a choice between a layup or three i always take the layup but then what that does is that sucks the defense in gives jordan clocks and even on a bad pass a lot of time to knock the shot down so you have to honor him in the paint the second part is again here freeze it again when instead of once he passes ball let it go again once he passes the ball he just doesn't rely on the three-point shot so freeze it here most guys would say coming off this screen with gobert i should be open because joker's in that drop position but he says no i'm gonna put pressure on the defense get in here i'm big enough i'm strong enough to finish over defenders and get the m1 donovan mitchell comes at you you can't score 50 points just shooting jump shots you have to be able to get to the rim as donovan mentioned he's got 13 and a half jordan clarkson off the bench has got 14. jordan clarkson and mike uh conley connolly look like michael jordan and you know reggie miller out there denver don't play any defense but what disappoints me they're not even competing don't think that computer no i don't think they're competing because when you're down 3-1 like you play with you you play with great energy you play i don't see zero desperation okay i see zero death rate i've been down with what a serious even when you're down 2-0 you go back home that game three you all over the place you're diving and everything they're just going through the motions not a joker played well but the rest of those guys you know when your coach has to ask you for energy that makes me mad okay i mean you get you you're a professional no you get paid 63 to 54 jazz they're 24 minutes away from advancing uh kenny the jet smith running to the video wall [Laughter] [Laughter] we've lost shaq if we've lost him [Laughter] you're watching the american express halftime report who our nightcap tonight is tasty luka doncic in the dallas mavericks tied up 2-2 with kawhi and the clippers we'll bring that to you after utah and denver so who shot the three better there's jokic at the end of the quarter or was it shaq oh man for his only career three mine if you called glass on that no i told uh bee hill to run and play for me he didn't so i just intercept the ball and i look back at him see that you see that look [Laughter] there's there is absolutely nothing in the world as good as laughter there is absolutely nothing better feels great to laugh anyway especially when you put that picture up there hey you got six seconds left put it up again come on let's see it let me see that dog booty skinny suit pants
