| 0:00.0 | This is an I-Heart podcast. |
| 0:12.8 | Some news from all around the league, right? |
| 0:15.9 | Let's start in Brooklyn. |
| 0:17.2 | It's kind of a nice story. |
| 0:18.8 | Here's a guy you probably know, no. That was a Chris Collinsworth line. Here's a guy you probably don't know. Probably don't know what he looks like. Probably don't know that he went to Xavier. Probably don't know that he plays point guard. Probably don't know that he played for the Indiana Pacers and blew out of his Achilles. But we're going to tell you about him because he's actually impactful. Edmund, Edmund Sumner. |
| 0:39.7 | Probably one of the greatest steals of the offseason, honestly. |
| 0:42.9 | And if you don't know him, 6.6 point guard out of Xavier. |
| 0:46.2 | He averaged 15 a game there in college, right? |
| 0:48.9 | Drafted 52nd by the Pels, ended up on the Pacers for four years, |
| 0:56.7 | increases his minutes, year after year after year, finishes the 2020-2020 season really as a good player off the bench. Averaged 8, 2, 2, |
| 1:04.8 | including 13, 3, and 2 in the games leading up to the injury, the last 10 games. He was actually |
| 1:10.1 | just really getting better game after game. Pops his Achilles, cost him all of last year. And then he gets traded by the Pacers because he was becoming pretty important to the very, like, sticky offense. But, you know, these things happen. They have Tyrese Halliburton. They're going to go get another guard. |
| 1:27.9 | They've got Chris Dorsey. So that's fine. So he gets trade in the T.J. Warren trade and then |
| 1:32.8 | waived. But the Nets decide to take a flyer on him, bring them back to the team, re-signed. |
| 1:40.5 | So they're like, all right, what is he doing? Now with Kyrie Irving out from suspension, he has just been absolutely a glue guy for this team. |
| 1:51.9 | 11, 3 and 2, with 40% shooting 40% from 3 and very, really overlooked. |
| 2:00.4 | Like you can watch him shoot 5 threes in a night just some nights |
| 2:04.8 | he's like three for four some nice two for four sometimes you know oh for two but man they need a guy |
| 2:10.8 | who can take care of the ball and one of the reasons really that the nets are playing well |
| 2:15.1 | defensively and i've said this before they're holding opponents outside of that Lakers team that put up 116 on them, but they're holding opponents |
| 2:22.6 | under 100 points per game. And Edmund Sumner, big reason why. This is what he said in a recent |
| 2:27.8 | interview. The schemes are still the same. We're doing the same stuff. I just feel like we're really |
