Welcome back to Gil's Arena, presented by Polymarket and powered by Playmaker.
Whoa, whoa!
A glorious day here in the arena. Monday, NBA. Almost here. 24 hours away, ladies and gentlemen. Can you feel it? I can feel it. Can you feel it? I can feel it. I'm really your host, Josiah Johnson. I'm here with NBA legend, 2K Uncle Badges, Theater King, and goaded Gilbert Arenas. That boy got his suit on today, boy!
Big business here, gentlemen. $ 100, 000 online.
That's how much we got online?
Yeah. $ 100, 000. Let me lock in for real. Lock in.
Y'all didn't know that.
Y'all didn't know that.
When you started picking up bullshit then. Lock in. All right, my energy about to turn. We're joined by NBA champion of the world. We got NBA champion of the world and creator of the Tallest Tails Network on YouTube, Brendan Haywood, back in the building.
Yes, sir. About to get this money, man. About to get this money.
We got four-time All-Star, two-time All-NBA selection, DeMarcus Cousins, back here with us.
That shit sound real good.
Just letting y'all know now, I'm not supporting nothing that's going on to my right.
And we have a very festively dressed man of the occasion, NBA Champion of the World, Swaggy P, Nick Young, back on the couch.
Where'd you get that shirt from?
Oh, this is the size. That's from Evans. That's from Evans Collection. Nah, this is called Airflow.
Airflow.
I don't know where he got it from.
I just knew it wasn't the men's department. I'm not killing it right now.
Is it unisex? Low key. You're depressing me, bro. You got to. You can see the... Quickly speaking of Evan, we got former college player of the year, number two overall pick. He played 10 seasons in the league. He's not here with us, but remotely joining us, we got Evan Turner here with us as well.
Appreciate y'all.
Is this really for 100,000?
100,000? Yeah.
Or you want to break it up? Let's break it up. Let's break it up into four. Let's break it up into four.
I know we can figure out how we want to do it.
Let's go like the first, then the second.
If we can do first, I mean first, second, or third place, that's what y'all want to do? First, get it on. Ooh, you like the NBA, huh? You like the NBA analytics. I thought this was a show of winners. Now we... Champions on the couch.
Thank you.
The second place we get gold. You get silver.
This is the Olympics.
This is the Olympics. Silver, bronze, then we get the bronze, all that.
I'm going home with something.
Well, you can see we're all festively dressed. We got the decorations out here. Shout out to our amazingly talented crew for putting all of this together. But here's what's cracking in the arena today. It's our first ever Gills Arena NBA Fantasy League and Fantasy Draft, our entire cast picking their squads, going head-to-head all season long. Who's winning the crown and who's going down? We got a lot.
We see a lot of faces up there. We're going to see how these teams shape up. If people choose wisely or choose poorly, shout out Indiana Jones. But mostly fans, back for our Super Chat. Throw something in the offering plate. Drop your questions in. We'll pick something to answer at the end of our Fantasy Draft today. We appreciate y'all for all the love and support that y'all have been giving to us. But hey, I need to tell y'all about this new sports trading app I discovered. It's called PolyMarket.
It's the most exciting way to trade in sports, and it's a nationwide, federally regulated prediction market. PolyMarket is the best prediction market, better than Couchy, DraftKings, and FanDuel. In the past, if you wanted a position on a game, you'd put your money in and get locked in until the very end. But PolyMarket lets you trade games like you would a stock, buying in and selling out entirely on your terms. When your team drops to 20 cents, you buy the dip. And when they jump to 40 cents, you sell, lock in your gains, and double your money without waiting for the final whistle. And it isn't just sports.
You can trade on culture, news, and current events. Plus, they have a squads feature where you can talk and trade with your friends. Any trade a member places drops right into the chat as a card, and anyone can hit buy to take that same pick in one tap. Ditch the old limitations and trade on your terms. Download the Polymarket app and use code ARENA. And when you deposit just $ 10, you'll unlock $ 25 in bonus funds That's code ARENA to get $ 25 in bonus funds when you deposit $ 10 on Polymarket. And shout out to all our Twitches out there. Where are my Twitches? Gills Arena, everywhere you want to be. Shout out to everybody watching the show on Twitch. Everybody on Twitch, if you have not done so already, make sure you subscribe to our Gills
Arena show channel. Appreciate y'all for all the subs, as always. Well, like I said, the top of the show season tips off in 24 hours, and we're doing something special to celebrate with our first annual Gills Arena Fantasy League Each member of our cast will have a squad this season go head-to-head against each other. We will track each team throughout the regular season with the winner getting some big bread for their efforts. Gil said $ 100, 000. We have yet to confirm that. Who's writing that check? Is that coming out your pocket? If it's coming out of Gil's pocket.
It's coming out of somebody's pocket. You ain't got to worry about yours. I'm going to get it how I get it. Long as it ain't mine. Long as it ain't mine. Now I want to be real. Now I want to be real. I like that. Nick don't need his money. He don't need all of it. He don't need all of it. I love his money. I'm going to do what they did to us last year. No, no, no.
I see what.
Y'all trying to do.
Allegedly.
I see what y'all trying to do. Stop that.
You put me in this seat, too. So it all starts today with our fantasy draft. Here is the breakdown for everybody so we can keep it all organized together. Shout out to our amazingly talented crew. So each participant will select eight players for their team. The top five players from each team's scores will be combined to make the total overall score. Players' point totals will be calculated using ESPN's default fantasy point scoring system. We didn't want to make it too elaborate. Keep it simple for y'all.
We know we don't got a lot of fantasy experts in here, so keeping it simple. We're using ESPN's default fantasy scoring system. Whoever has the highest score at the end of the regular season wins. All right, we see. Shout out to our crew. We got nice little graphics. We out here living good. Living good in Gil's neighborhood.
So here is the breakdown of the scoring system that we'll use this season. Like I said, it's ESPN's default Fantasy scoring system. So a point is worth one. A three-pointer made is worth one. A field goal attempt is minus one. A field goal made is two. A free throw attempt is minus one. Free throw made counts as one.
A rebound counts as one. Assist is two points. A steal is four points. A block is four points. And a turnover is minus two points. Oh, they want us to draft some role-playing ass. What did he say? He prioritizes efficiency shooting. Can we put the full screen back up, Paolo, please, for Swaggy and his lovely festive shirt today?
You don't check the doc, huh?
The doc? Don't read the script. Every point is worth a point. Every three-pointer made is worth a point. Every field goal attempt is a minus one. Field goal made is plus two. A free throw attempt is minus one. A free throw made is plus one. Rebound plus one. So you don't read the script? Hold on, was that from Traffic Thunder? I don't read the script. So, in this particular example, if you make a three-pointer, that would be five points. You get three points for the point.
You get a point for the three-pointer made. You get two points for the field goal made. Minus one for a field goal attempt.
Corner niggas there. Corner niggas.
Corner niggas are doing it. And finally, We held our draft lottery this past Friday on Gil's Arena. Shout out to everybody who pulled up to the show. So as a reminder, here is our draft order for today. Evan got the number one pick. Evan made sure. He couldn't be with us in the arena today, but he made sure to pull up so there was no chicanery or shenanigans in this draft. Shump has the number two pick. Brendan, you got the number three pick.
Come on now. You already know what it is.
Our very own Gilbert J. Arenas with the fourth pick.
Four.
Baron Davis, who cannot be here today. What did J stand for? J. Huh?
J-A-Y.
J-A-Y. So BD has the fifth pick, Boogie has the sixth pick. Oh, no. George. Danny Green with the seventh overall pick. I can pick the motherfucking man. And the eighth pick goes to Swaggy. Thank you. This is a snake draft, so the draft order will reverse. So somebody going to get snaked? This is a snake draft, ladies and gentlemen. So the draft order will be reversed every round, which means that the team that picks last in one round picks first in the next round. Each participant will have 90 seconds to make their selection. We are sticking to the hard 90 seconds. They have to lock in, get this thing going. I will be making picks for the participants who aren't available to be here today. Some
have sent their lists in. Some will just rely on me.
Listen, we should still call Shump and see if that's who he wants with his first pick of the draft, the second pick of the draft. I'm just saying because if he picks the person he wants to pick, we all eating.
We got to help Shump help himself. No, man. We're going to help Shump help himself. Every man for himself. I have been designated as the... There's 100,000 on the line. That's what I'm saying.
So if 100,000 are on the line and that's who he wants with his pick, I say we give it to him.
Got to let him be great. I'm picking for Shump.
No, no.
Because they're not here today. If any of them win, I get 20%.
Okay.
So I'm taking this serious, Gil. Okay. I'm taking this very serious. Whoa, whoa, whoa. You picking for how many people? For three. Any of those three. Oh, that's great. I like my numbers. Okay. But I'll be picking based on the best available players. Y'all can go to ESPN to see their list of top 150 fantasy draft picks. I will also use my extensive basketball knowledge and a little help from the chat as well. A little help from the chat. So, Evan has the first pick of the draft.
Like I said, Evan isn't here today, but he came and pulled up remotely to make his pick. So, Evan, you have the first pick. Your clock starts right now.
All right, well, my first pick is going to be quick and easy. Usually, I think people are suspecting me going across the waters, maybe going to grab Luka, going to go grab Wimby or Jokic. But after DeMarcus Cousins' rant about the prestige of American basketball, I'm going to stay at home. I'm going to pick homegrown talent. I'm going with number zero from the Boston Celtics to Honorable Jason Tatum.
Evan, that's taking... The light-skinned assassin, Jason Tatum. Man, you scared me for a minute, bro.
Okay, Jason Tatum.
Now, think about the second pick. You see what kind of bullshit it was on? We would be eating right now, but Jason Tatum, number one pick. Jason Tatum, I'm cool with that. Number one pick.
All right, so decide who you take with you.
Hold on, hold on, hold on.
Listen, we still got a whole 60-something seconds, man. I think someone should just call Shum right now.
You know what? Can I call Shum right now? Call Shum right now.
I just called Shum. You call him. You call him.
He might answer for you. And he's, oh, he might be doing some other obligations. So threes is five points. Evan has yielded his time to me. Threes is five points. I have Sean's pick. I'm not going to do something dirty.
Come on, man. I think he did his positional.
He had a positional pick and a backup. No, she asked him.
She asked him, do you want priority? He said, I want that first pick priority.
Melly has her hands up. She cannot confirm that. That's what I said. Come on, boss. We got to. He didn't say that. What? He didn't say that. He said that that's what we wanted. No, no. Oh, that's what he said.
Don't let him do it.
They're a team.
They're a team. You know they're a team. Make the pick, man.
No, we are stalling. I know what I'm going to do. Press the motherfucking button. Lose the pick?
Press the goddamn button.
That's what he said he wanted? No, no. What? I'm going to pick for Sean. You pick for Sean. Because I love you, Sean. I'm not going to let you go out like Willie. Press the goddamn button. So with Sean's pick, I will take.
Don't you do that.
See? Victor Wimpinyama.
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. I get who I want anyway. Damn.
I'm cool with that. Wamba, wamba. I still got a chance.
I got a good chance now.
And the funny part is he didn't even want that.
He liked the Joker. He wanted Maxie. All right, man.
My pick?
Brandon, hold on. We got a whole formal shit. My bad.
I ain't know, man. It's my first time seeing it. I ain't know y'all had a whole little situation.
Very no expenses to bring you guys this first ever gift. No, no, no. Hell no.
Don't write. No, no, no, no.
We're not going to write good pick for sure.
He wanted Maxie. or A-Cup first.
Seriously?
That's what he wanted with his first pick.
The number two pick. Yeah, you should have gave.
It to him, bro. That's bonus as hell. You got to be here, Shump.
Nick for the pick come next. Maxie or A-Cup.
But Shump, I got you blogs.

I got you four for blogs, four for steals.
Hey, who get here?

Hey, man, you know, I ain't going to waste no time.
We're going to get right to it, man. We're going to go ahead and take the Joker.
Give me Jokic, man. Brendan has selected everyone's favorite Serbian. That's right, baby.

Jokic rolling with the good guys.
Okay. Nikola Jokic. First Caucasian taken out. That's right.

Gilbert J. Arena, if you have the fourth pick in the first round, who are you taking with the fourth pick?
Come on, LA. You better go ahead and get you one of them overseas boys.
Too, now.
Go ahead, LA. I already know who he's getting.

Well, not with him picking.

Barron is not here with us, so Barron, I'm going to take the best available. No, man. Come on, man. No, it's a UCLA thing, Swaggy. We put our education. Are you going to go to UCLA?
Oh, that's good.
Absolutely not. Our favorite Canadian, SGA, will be taken by BD.
Good pick, good pick. Damn. I'm done.
Now, there's little ones in the kitchen. Yeah, you know, it's personal. I want to share with them. Oh, we're gonna spin that one down. You got Hunter Cooper?
Because who you got, man? Oh, it's on me?

The who?
The face of the league. No, sir.

He ain't going to be the face of the league, though.

Okay.
Hell yeah.
Y'all keep thinking that.
Oh, shit. The pick is in. Boogie has selected Anthony Edwards.
Excuse me? Why are you here?

Hey man, where'd you get that mini bottle of Moet from, man? You know there's a little community around here. They got a little store and they got little drinks. Are you serious?
Nah, I'm just kidding.
I just figured if we got the big bottles, they got to have it. It's only fitting.
I thought there really was a little community around here. I was going to go out there and terrorize them.
We're running around. Ah!
Godzilla coming.
I look like the Bone Crusher video.

Man, if you don't hurry up and make a pick, man.
Did I rush you? It's because you knew you wanted the white man so bad. Swaggy, do not use your time. Let me think. Motherfucker.
What Clinton Bixby say? White power.
Jackal, Jalen, Johnson, or Donovan Mitchell.
Help me out.
Help me help you. Okay, fuck you. Okay, that's what you want me to do?
Swaggy, we need your pick.

Where the fuck is Danny, bro?
Huh? How you take Jason Tatum at one? Danny Green. He could have got him.
Who's on the clock right now?
Danny Green. Danny Green. So, we're going to make it a light-skinned three-peat. I have been given the authority to make Danny Green's pick. Danny Green would like to select Tyrese Halliburton with his pick. Wait, hold on. Oh, okay. That's a good one. Made a list, checked it twice. Pause.
When is it my turn?
I don't know if that's a pause.
First of all, that's not a pause.
That ain't a pause. That's just normal behavior in a high school kid. Is it my turn yet? He ain't been part of those activities. That ain't high school. That ain't this high school. That was in the 80s.
Hey, man, hurry up in there.
I paid my 250 already.

Shout out to everybody in the chat pulling up. Chat, Baron on the clock. I need your picks for Baron. Chad, give me a good pick for Barron. I will allow the chat if I get enough of the chat support.

He don't have a big year.
Listen, they gave you a list. Go buy the list. Yeah.
Dead ass, bro, because somebody was supposed to have Darius Acuff.
Yeah. That was an option.
That was an option. That was an option. If Max was gone.
If Max was gone, he wouldn't have a cupo.
Something that bold, you got to give it to him, folks.
Hey, man, he can't pause the whole show, man.
I'm just saying. You know what I'm saying, though.
All right, BD, I'm going to go best available for you. Keep it brewing love, brewing centric. Come on, man. Not allow these people to dissuade me.
Oh, man.
He has a list, right? Baron does not. If it was me, y'all would have been picking all kinds of crazy stuff. We would go with Donovan Mitchell as Baron Davis' person. Donovan Mitchell.
That nigga's Paul George or something, bro.
Yeah. That's Paul. That's a possible one. He was ass booby Gibson. And then let his ass. Give him real points.
Give him Brooks.
Grady Dick. What?
Taco Fall.
Taco Fall. Taco Ball. Taco Winter.
Get us on you, man.
Hey, man, you don't rush talent. Taco Winter. Ralph Turner. And with my second pick.
See, right here is my chance to take a man I know another man wanted, and maybe that man will trade me his pick.
For the man he wanted.
You talking about me, Joe?
No, I know who he going to take.
I know how Gilbert works. A smart man will take this person. You want Max?
And see if he trades me for him because, you know, he didn't want him.
Oh, he went with me. I said, yeah, but if that don't work, then I'm stuck.
It's going to work. Just do it.
Come on, man.
Where is he right now?
Come on, baby.
Come on.
You rushed me. One, two.
Do you have any?
I'm ready to go get a soda, baby. Maybe I don't need to be sitting on this couch.
I'm trying to get a soda.
Cause threes is in three still. Maybe I should have looked at the doc. Give me some sick draws.
Random spoons.
Right. Give me Cooper flags.
God damn it.
Is it my turn yet?
Hell no.
Give me Coop. Give or take it.
Give me Coop.
I want a Coop flag, man. I want a Coop too. I want a Coop.
Man.
The first American Caucasian taken off the board. Cooper flag. He already beat it. The first American Caucasian has been removed from the board. Second year. 19. Yeah, but if they have one of them years, I'm scared of them.
No tanking years.
How old is Cooper Flagg? 19, right?
20, something like that?
He's 19. He turns 20 in a couple of months. I'm saying if they have one of them years. He's averaging a dub at 19. But they could tank again, too, though. Yeah, but that means that's going to benefit him. He can get all the points. They tanked last year, too, though. He can't tank no more.
He can play 60 games.
Yeah, he played all the games. That's the only thing I was worried about. Brandon, you were on the clock.
Oh, you didn't read the doc? I read the doc, but you took my pick. I thought you was going to take Maxie for sure, man. I thought you was going to take Maxie.
I'll take Maxie.
Nah, Danny Green took my pick. Brandon Haywood has taken Maxie from him. Halliburton! Yeah. Going to go with the Hallibon.
Take Tyrese Maxie.
All right. Chad, I need your help with this one.
It's a bonus. Get that nigga LeBron.
I can't do that.
Give him Porzingis.
Give him LeBron and add the junior on that motherfucker, for real.
Give him Kyrie, bro. Deadass, he got to get Darius A-cup.
Nah, man, give him Porzingis.
Who?
Yes!
Because you got to remember, he's going to have these picks and you're not going to get none of.
The people he actually.
Had, man.
Wimpy was on his list, sir. My first pick was.
Give him Porzingis. Porzingis already said he cleared the table.
Chad, I need your help with this. Chad, give me some names. I see what you're trying to do. Oh, yeah, he has Darius Acuff.
Give him Jalen Duren.
No, he has his guys. I don't want to take Acuff second. He said if Maxie's not... He went by position, Gil, so he put a starter and a backup for each position.
Give him Porzingis.
He's not that organized.
Porzingis said he passed that test, man, so you got to give him Porzingis.
Give him Jacob Porter. That's where I'm leaning towards, man. Thank you. That's our Franco connection. Our Franco connection. I would go with Kawhi Leonard for Shump.
All right, perfect. It's my turn?
Hold on. We got to build up the... Shump, I got your back. I just want you to know, all right? We have his back, too. No, you don't.
That was not no favor getting Kawhi. Kawhi's just good in games.
Career year coming. He's back in the six, Evan. I hear that. He's building upon. Man. And Chad, stop hating. I'm doing my best. I was not.
Six upside down. It's a nine now.
Evan, you were on the clock.
All right. I personally never liked this man's game, but I understand it. And I'm appreciative he's still around. Giannis Antetokounmpo.
Giannis has been taken off the board. Giannis been gone.
This nigga on dope. You think we would have been to Giannis? Giannis been gone.
Right on camera.
Giannis been gone, man. Give me two seconds.
Pause.
Give me two seconds. Not a possible moment.
Damn, bro.
Just give me Kevin Durant. Evan is elected to take Kevin Durant as the final pick in the second round of the Gills Arena Fantasy Draft. Shout out to Polymarket. Shout out to Playmaker for keeping the lights on, making sure the direct deposits hit at the appropriate moment. Kevin Wayne Durant. Kevin been very spicy lately on Al Gore's internet.
We will discuss that tomorrow when we are back to our regularly scheduled Gills Arenas. Pause. Okay, nobody said that regularly like that. That's a pause moment. Regularly? No, no, no, no, no. The juggling. Juggling of the tongue. Hey, what? The juggling of the tongue. Sound like nighttime action.
Not a near enough.
Hey, man, no more Moet for you on the show. Sound like nighttime action. Hey, man, no more drinking for you on the show. Somebody come get this bottle from Gil.
Hey, man, we got two white men, man. We got the international one and the American one.
Multiple Caucasians.
God is good.
Multiple Caucasians. All the time. This thing is crazy, bro. I'm telling you. I told you it's a different year, man. We got to wear suits to the game now, man. We're taking it back to the 60s, man, where everybody had to dress up at the games. That's what I'm going to do.
We're going to go to the game, the Laker games, and we're going to dress up in suits like they did.
Back in 1950 and 60. 1950 and 60? Mm-hmm. Okay. Evan Turner, you have the first pick in the third round because of our snake draft. All right. Let me get.
I hate him too.
Damn, you said you hate him?
God.
Let me get Josh Giddey.
Every Turner is elected to take the Giddler. Josh Giddey. Shit.
No, let me get Sangoon.
You already picked him.
No.
No.
You already picked him.
Sangoon.
Who?
Sangoon. Yeah, let me get Sangoon.
I'm straight. I'm going to get me some Giddy.
Pause.
Get me some Giddy?
Get me some Giddy. That was a perfect pause.
Now, that could have many meanings.
Giddy, Giddy, Giddy. Giddy, Giddy, Giddy.
Giddy, Giddy, Giddy, Giddy.
Giddy, Giddy, Giddy, Giddy, Giddy.
Giddy, Giddy, Giddy, Giddy. Giddy, Giddy, Giddy, Giddy. Giddy, Giddy, Giddy, Giddy. Giddy, Giddy, Giddy, Giddy.
Giddy, Giddy, Giddy, Giddy. Giddy, Giddy, Giddy, Giddy.
Giddy, Giddy, Giddy, Giddy. Giddy, Giddy.
You're too old for Gideon's insane.
Man, I don't know where to go with Rashawn.
Hey, man, what you want over there, man? That went over some of their heads, but I caught it.
Man, I'm sipping, man.
I'm sipping and enjoying this drive. Iman Shepard, back up. He's answering. A-cup watch. If that's where he would like to go, I don't want the chap blaming me. I will do as he pleases. Nah. He has Wimby and Kawhi. Tell them to send a couple options because they might already be off the board. Let them know we have a minute and two seconds left. Chat. There is our draft recap so far. Shump on the board. This is going to go down to the wire.
To the wire.
Wait, where's Cade and Jalen? The chat is leaning towards Jalen Brunson. Another nice condition. Come on, man.
Hey, chat, y'all hate, man. He don't even want him.
He don't even want him, man. I can't do him, Dirty Gil. Yes, you can.
Man, come on, chat. Y'all crazy.
He may not get in in time. I can give him Darius A. Cup Jr. Huh? I can't give him Ace. I don't want to do him dirty.
He said he wants Acuff. Give the man his pick.
He said he wanted Ace. Ace who? Bailey? That's who he said he wanted. Or Acuff. So you're saying Ace Bailey is who he said he wanted.
Give him Acuff.
Give it to him, bro. Oh, Ace Bailey is his number one? Oh, yeah. Oh, really? Because what you sent me was... The top one is the first one.
He said he wants Ace Bailey?
He wants it as the top list. I appreciate you, son. Wait, wait, hold on. This is how I got the list.
So top list, Maxie, Ant, Ron. Then you're going to go, whoa, whoa, y'all gave him Kawhi. He wanted Caleb first. I'm not going to give him Caleb Wilson, Gil. I can do it if y'all want.
But that's the problem. He feels... These are positional, though. I know, but the first person is, this is my starter, this is my backup. Starter, backup, starter, backup. So Caleb Wilson was... A person he actually wanted. I got Caleb Wilson, too. I can't even lie. Who? I wasn't on the list you gave me. I mean, I... What? Who the fuck is Mara? I'm going to give him Caleb Wilson. I'm going to give him Caleb Wilson. That's what I'm saying.
But it's on the list, Gil. I can't do him like that. Mara may not play that much. So who'd you give him? He didn't want two small forwards.
He don't care.
It doesn't matter about positions. He did that.
Hey, man, who y'all giving him, man?
Ace Bailey? All right, we'll go Ace Bailey. Take it back, pal. Ace Bailey. Ace Bailey.
Ace Bailey. Yeah.
Great pick, Sean. Yeah. I'm glad you got to be here, sir. I'm glad you got to be here. Yeah, man. Thank you.
Ace Bailey ain't getting no shots out there in Utah this year.
Zero. I can't even find him on this list. They even cross him out.
All right, man. My turn.
Number 133. It's your turn?
Yeah, man.
Yeah, man. Yeah, man. Chad, this is not me. Yeah, man. Yeah, man. It could have been worse. Probably not. If he actually picked the people he wanted. Son of a ball, that gas. Yes, yes, he is.
Oh, go ahead and give me Jalen Brunson, man.
Bro! Big body. Go ahead.
Give me big body Brunson, man.
Big body Brunson. I was hoping, bro, it was going to fall.
Nah, man.
I ain't playing like that. Once y'all said $ 100, 000 on the line, I decided to lock in and take this serious.
I need that bread.
I want all shooters.
Okay.
That's right.
Jalen Brunson for the winning team.
Okay. Gilbert J. Arenas, you are now on the clock. I'm going to let y'all know, man.
My team is going to put fire to y'all, man, this year, man. Any side bets? Nick, you on the side? Hey, Nick, you over there look like you studying, man.
I am.
Hey, boy, you look like you back at USC.
Nah, you tripping. That ain't how he look.
You ain't do no studying at USC.
Somebody would have been studying for him. Somebody would have been studying for him at Boots. Damn, Evan.
Evan liked that one. He liked that one.
He liked that one.
Hey, hey, hey. He liked that one. He liked that joke. Hey, man, Evan liked that one. Hey, man, he supported me.
I was thinking about something else. My fault.
No, he wasn't.
He was laughing at you. I don't want to be by you over here.
Why? This is great. Who's on the clock? Oh, it ain't me. Gilbert Arenas on the clock. Gil, you have 40 seconds.
Stop sipping that little bottle of champagne and make a pick, man.
You gonna pick another white boy?
Go ahead and take some bonus then.
The Glory Road Squad.
Go ahead and take some bonus.
Yeah, that's what he gonna do. Keep it light. I think I'm picking a nigga from Sacramento.
I don't think they registered any goddamn stats on the ESPN.
Come on, man.
Don't do Sacramento like that, man.
I'm gonna go with.
Hey, Nick done pulled out his glasses and everything.
No, I'm going down. What? You going where? I'm going down.
Okay, I didn't know where you said you were going.
I'm going down to the place.
You're going to call it the top of the hat?
You're going down to the top of the hat? You're going down to the top of the hat?
Okay. Meet me in the back there, Jack. Scotty Barnes, baby! Give me that Scotty Barnes, baby! Yeah! Scoot, scoot! Come on, chat. Y'all see what we doing around here?
Nothing.
This nigga eating beans. Gil selected Scottie Barnes. Scottie Barnes. Sean, I apologize in advance. You had Ace Bailey on your list. That is the pick we gave you. He would have been available much later. Neither here nor there. Maybe you see a vision we don't see, but we support you either way. No, we don't. Gilbert has selected Scottie Barnes in the first ever Gills Arena Fantasy Draft for the 2026-27 season, ladies and gentlemen. Thank you guys for pulling up and supporting. Solid pick. Y'all like it? Chad, Baron Davis is up. And I have a pick in mind for Baron, but I'm going to give the chat a second.
Throw some names in there. Oh, you don't want to do with the best available on this one? No, I can't do it to him. You don't want to do best available? Can't do it to him. Why do you got to get best available? Can't do it to him. Not fair. Not fair to the system. Y'all mad at me. I'm conveying the picks that they wanted. Yes, SGA been gone.
Come on, dude. The best available, man. I'm going to help BD out. Baron Davis selects Trey Young. Oh, man. Come on, man. Come on, man. Oh, damn. I want to pay you up.
Are you messing this up, man? Like, fuck.
We leaving him. We leaving that person for him so you can go best available. You ain't sticking to the principles you said earlier. I said I will also use my extensive basketball knowledge. I cannot, as you said.
Facts, facts. You did.
A Sacramento. You did. He can't be the first Sacramento off the board.
You did pull that out the wazoo.
You did. I mean, if you did. Yeah, you're down. BD, I'm not going to do you down. God damn it. All right, but it's on me, huh? Mm-hmm. Come on, Boogie. Hey, man, you got to sit to the crib. Yeah, no, no, no, no, no, no. There you go. Come on, your position. Who?

Very good pick. Danny Green on the clock. You playing basketball in Pelican Bay. I'm down for it. I like that one. That's a good pick.
Danny Green on the clock. I'm just picking all corner names from now on. Swaggy all-corner team from his fourth. Ah, yep. Danny Green. We know who he getting. you gave me a list Pascal for y'all Brandon Majewski still on the board that would not be my selection but still on the board for anybody keeping alright Danny Green's pick Danny Green has selected Austin Reeves Papati Limon Papati Limon Making all my corner niggas, man.

I don't give a fuck no more.
You have two picks right now. You could do damage. Where you going?
You should take Carl Anthony Towns.
That's what I was about to say.
I thought it was a three. I thought it was a three. I'm going Towns, baby. Towns.
Carl Anthony Towns. Uptown Boogie Towns. And Steph Curry. All right, let's get the first pick. Swagger, your first pick, Carl Anthony Towns, the big bodega, the big purr. Trying to get some bread right now. May or may not be a New York Knick when Black History Month rolls around. Once his chips would dip, we'll take a cut. Message.
But not that much. New York teetering towards that second apron. What team will win in a 5-0-5, though? That we picking? I can't mind. Oh, no. You have selected Cat and Steph Curry. Yeah, yeah. All right, I have Danny Green's pick. I will wait. What? Where was Steph? Ladies and gentlemen, hold on. Did we put the second pick up? Yeah.

$ 200.
I like this. This is easy. What do you got?
It's on me?
Yes, sir. Oh, no. That's going to fix all of it. This is about to get real fun. I'm going Devin Booker.
Boogie. Another life scandal off the board. Are you picking best available? Are you picking best available, man? We had to swerve and hit that corner.
Whoa. Can't do it. I don't want you to pick my man in this one. Can't do it. I can't do that to him. We don't even know. Okay, first of all, is he playing this year?
Is he healthy?
Who, Sabonai?
Yeah.
That's a good question because, you know, I'm only versed on Darius Acuff, Ben Simmons. Did he play in preseason? Did he?
I think he was averaging like 40 in preseason. Best he's ever looked. Lord Baron Davis. Baron, I'm going to do you a solid. I'm going to go Amon Thompson for Baron Davis.
Amon Thompson. See, that's man. Amon Thompson.
He would have never.
He would have never. He would have. No, he wouldn't have. Baron, religious man.
Is he?
Amen would have spoke to him. Well. A great TV show back in the day. Oh, yes. Come on, man.
Sherman Helms.
Shout out Sherman Helms.
Turn on the lights.
In heaven, Lord.
Shine on me.
Hey. So he played. So he was hurt last year. The chat's clowning. So, chat, when I win with one of the three teams that I've helped engineer as general manager, I know you won't apologize.
Who the chat clowning?
Well, you know, they got something to say for every pick I make.
Oh, they saying your picks are bad? They saying you don't know the game, Joe?
We'll see. Same chat will be like, oh, I believed in you the whole time, Joe. So, I don't know.
That's how the chat do, man.
Good is your pick. Give me.
The man who's on his contract.
Yeah.
Won't that extension about to lead the league in blocks?
Who that? Huh? Going to leave the league in blocks. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Anthony Davis. Bambi Legs Davis, baby. Give me Anthony Bambi Legs Davis.
Give us a look at Anthony Davis.
We're not calling him Bambi Legs. We're not going to have no wizard slander on this show.
Crazy. Give us a look at Anthony Davis. Nobody got a pass cap? Chad, as a reminder, only the top five of this eight-person team's point totals will count, so you're allowed to have a few throwaway picks that may not do it for you.
I'm on the clock.
You must have wanted him. Nah, nah, I wasn't going to take him. He didn't pick no wizards. Huh?
I was trying to get Trey Young.
He didn't pick no wizards? That's crazy. You got a chance right now?
And you work for them?
That's crazy.
That's why I said y'all not going to call him Bambi Legs out here. I'm fighting for my guys.
They going to ask, damn, B, you couldn't pick me?
I was trying to get Trey Young, but y'all got to him before me, man. I'm going to go ahead and take Paolo.
Paulo Bancharo. That's so far away from D.C. That's crazy. Hey, man, listen, brother.
Listen, I got to get who I can get. I know he's going to get that rock.
For sure. Paulo Bancharo. Paulo P. Carroll. I would adhere to Shum's list. No, Lord. I would adhere to it. I got the text message. I got the text message. Shumwa Nas Reed. I'm just saying, I don't think... The person he had in the fifth round was never going to be the 40 picks deep into this. I just...
Paolo P. Carroll. You still haven't given him his guard. Still haven't given him his guard. He's not available. His guard is available. Y'all not drafting him so that lets you know right away that that's not a good pick.
He wasn't drafting none of the people he had.
I will hear the Shubbs list. He's an outlier.
Give him his outlier team.
He's a Chicagoan until Chicago wins. Caleb Wilson will be his fourth pick.
Shubbs ain't going to get no money.
Did he have him on that team? He had him on the list. I was looking at K. He's picking his third option guys, right? But he put it in position order. So... So, what have you done now? So, he had Wimby as his fifth pick. But Wimby would have never been in the fifth. Wimby's going as the top five pick in this draft. And he had the second pick. And he had him as the second pick. So, that's why I grabbed him as his first overall pick.
Yeah. Because to him, he figured Maxie wasn't going to be there by the time he got another pick.
I don't think he read the document. I'm starting to realize I might be the only one that.
Read the document. We do try to prepare you guys as best we can. Yeah, man. No, see, I think you're missing. You're going off of what you think. He's big on Acuff.
And he knows Acuff is going to shoot all the balls, so Acuff is going to have big numbers.
So the fact that you didn't give it to him... I mean, if Acuff is still on the board by the time it rolls back around... You think Acuff is going to be on the board, I'm going to take it.
I'll take it.
Just in case. And put him on the bench. But Acuff's not going to be efficient with his scoring, which is another key part of it. Oh, that's a part of it, too? Yeah, that's how... Fantasy works. So field goal attempts is a minus one. I didn't know that. I never did it. Yeah, I never did it. Don't worry.
They may want me to text you the document.
I never did fantasy. That's why. I live in reality.
You've been in fantasy your whole life.
If you think you're part of a championship, if you think you did anything in that championship, yeah.
You live in the fantasy, brother. Don't let them disrespect your championship.
Oh, I know.
They don't know what it feels like. Hey, Nick, a.
Champion can spot another champion from afar. I respect you.
I respect you. That's why you my dog, man. You my guy. Always have been. Always I tried to get you to stop hanging with him in D.C. And I did. That's where you went wrong. And I did.
You should have never been hanging with him.
I should have stayed away.
You should have come hang with your boy.
Yeah, exactly. I tried to steer you right.
This thing got me getting fined and shit.
Yeah. BB gun fucked in the locker room. I'm up here trying to be a good friend, falling and shit. Yeah. Pow, pow, pow.
Yeah. You fell? Yeah. I got fined $ 25, 000 for that. I'm so glad I was sick that day. I was sick that day, too. No, I had the flu.
You know, I would have been out there clowning with y'all, but he ain't.
Yeah.
They gave it back.
I've been out there with y'all.
They gave it back. Oh, Paulo gone?
Huh?
They gave it back at the end.
You said who? Paulo. Yeah, yeah.
He on my team, baby.
What you got, E.T.? Evan, you have the.
The last pick of the fourth round is the first.
Pick of the fifth round.
I'm good.
I like where I'm at. Let me get the good Jalen Williams from OKC.
Good Jalen Williams? You think he's so good. He is.
He's nice.
He's top 15.
He's top what?
15. In the league?
Like now?
Evan would like the good Jalen Williams. Not to be confused with other Jalen Williams. It's crazy y'all calling him the good Jalen Williams. The other Jalen Williams has.
Got to be a little upset.
It's his fault he got the same name.
Imagine betting your money on one and the other. You'd be pissed.
You have the first pick in the fifth round as well of our Gills Arena Fantasy League draft.
Let me get Steph Curry.
He's gone already, man.
What?
Yeah, he been gone.
I'm telling you, he keep going away to do some dope.
Hey, man, he over there drinking. He keep stepping away. All right, y'all, I'm coming back. It's my turn.
I'm cooking something in the kitchen, man. I'm cooking something in the kitchen, bro. I got some noodles on the stove.
You're cooking something in the kitchen, but it ain't noodles.
I got some noodles. Let me get a.
You got that narcotic.

Let me get LeBron.
Okay. LeBron James. Where's LeBron, Evan? Where's LeBron?
What's LeBron you want? LeBron or Bronny?
The good one.
Wow.
Wow.
One good word. The G League?
Because one is baller than the G League. One is LeBron James of the G League. Yeah, he averaged like 22.
Yeah, he did.
Ronnie, G League staff will transfer over and be on the tour. They will not.
Who took Steph Curry?
Me. The champion that won with him.
You funny as hell.
Who's on me? It's on Sean Shumpert again. Oh, my God. Take a cut for him. A cut, right? You got to do it, Joe.
Do it, Joe. Do it for us, Joe.
You're not even a top-ranked Darius. We did it, Joe. Because he ain't played this year. Jump. What's funny is Ben Simmons is going down. No, he ain't talking about the numbers.
Yeah, he is.
Where's he? He died. We will go with Darius Acuff Jr. for Iman Shumpert. I don't even think he's on this list, so I'm not even going to worry. Nah, he on here. Second column. Ladies and gentlemen, Shumpert's list. I thought he wanted Ace Bailey. He already got him. Oh, wow. I would have picked Acuff before Ace Bailey. My man, you're going to lose regardless. Yeah. Ladies and gentlemen, this is why I merely host. Fantasy Picker, not in my resume.
Is it my pick?
No.
It's my pick right now, so I'm going to pick Darius Aker. No, it's... I'm going to spy with my little eye.

Let me get James Harden.
Brandon gone with the beard. James Harden. James Harden.

No, no, no, they don't go to the playoffs.
Yeah, it does.
It's regular season.
It's regular season.
It's regular season.
Nobody got some bonus. Nobody got some bonus. Yeah. We get nobody. Hey, man.

Mr. Wood, you was out of line.
First of all, Mr. Wood is insane. We're not going to make that a thing. That's what we're not going to do.
Ladies and gentlemen, while we have a brief moment in this Fantasy League draft, go ahead and hit that like button if you appreciate all the exemplary content that we're bringing you here on Gil's Arena. Our first ever Fantasy League draft, first ever Fantasy League competition. $ 100, 000 on the line as a reminder. I'm picking for three teams. Any of those teams win. Come on. 20%.
Sabon is the most likely player to get traded on a little thing, too.
That's why he's hanging up there.
What are we doing here? Brandon Bajewski still on the board. Boom. Could I go there? I could go there. Wait a minute. Hold on. Let me check. This might be the year. This might be the year. This might be the year. It could be, for real. All right, I'm going to go with... C. Yeah, I really thought I was going to pick Seahawks.

Pack him up. For doing the right thing. So, Baron Davis' pick. Oh, man, I miss him. I'm going to keep it rocket-centric. I'm going to go Alperine, Shangoon. The Shangweenie. Martini.

It's one of my best.
Not a lot. Just a little bit. But when I win, I'm taking mental notes.
You got the best chance to win. You're part of, like, four teams.
This is called strategy. All right. Danny Green. Danny has sent in his picks. Who picked Allie? I believe. Might have been Danny. Danny Green. Yeah, we, good. A well-balanced structure team.

Choose wisely who you put in that fifth position, who you put in the sixth spot. If they're watching the show, they may take offense. Oh, so is this our last pick? No, we have... No, for the fifth, for our starters. Oh, we can set our line up any way we want, right? It's just total points.
So it's your top eight and then your top five scorers. So your eighth pick may end up being a better fantasy scorer. Yeah. Oh, so we don't have to put them in the lineup? No. I'm trying to keep this simple. All right. You know, y'all niggas are busy and lazy simultaneously. Trying to make this easy for you guys. So you pick eight. Your top five scores count towards your total score.
