I may be the best 2k youtuber making videos right now. It's only Wheel of 2k episode number four. I've got three dark matters. I've got a soon-to-be dark matter microphone. A soon-to-be dark matter invincible Yanis. I got Nicky Batuu. I got Miss Mab Morzingis. I got Bench Death. I've got a Houston happy ending in the last two episodes. Are you telling me what? Somebody invite the shot watch into my house right now. Ooh, give me a hand. Ah! Ah! Who would bring in the cheat sheet? Let's reel it in. Oh, and two, and one, and 11 are off the table. I am two and one. That leaves our worst challenge as a 24-hour stream, so I just got to lock up one dub and get past that. Get waxed, ask girls, and truthfully answer five queues. Are looking like they might be safe, but we'll have to see how these next games go. Not going to lie, the last two guys I've played were not very good. I don't think my luck's going to continue. Also, you guys will be able to tell me this. I don't know if 2k has an elo system. I know that Madden has a shadow elo system. Madden basically watches how well you play and tries to pair you up with people who are about as good as you.  That's why sometimes in Wheel of Mud, I'll play a God Squad. Does 2k do that, or does 2k just match you up with people with similar overall?  I don't know. I just don't know. If you guys know that, let me know. Either way, that's it. 2k, we're feeling good for two and one. I think 1,000 pushup streams, five Instagram DM slides, and can I collect times 10, they're kind of the front runners right now, but let's not get ahead of ourselves. All right, boys. The Wheel is spinning. To add to this squad and the Houston Happy Endings are looking for their next masseuse. That doesn't make a lot of sense. Let's see what we got.  I've never done this in 2k. I have never done this. The top 10 A.H. I could take one player that is on the auction house out of the first 10 I see. I have to search auctions with nothing in the filter. One player out of the top 10. There's Dark Matter D-Wade. There's two Kobe's. There's Dark Matter Kareem. All right, so that's 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8. Danny Granger. 9. Therias Garland. 10. Joan Howard.  That was actually cracked. Danny Granger, D-Wade, or Kareem. I feel like, okay, so this Kareem is amazing. He's probably the best option except what I should do is when I get invincible, Yanis, I move Yanis to small forward. Kareem at power forward. No, Kareem at center. Hakim at power forward. I kind of want Kareem here. As much as I want Dwayne Wade, I think Kareem is the better pick here. So it's this Dark Matter Kareem right here. It looks like I'm going to have to bid on him, but I think he went for like 270. That last one does. So let me look at my lineup while that bid's going in. The problem is right now Yanis is only a power forward as his diamond. But if you look at the invincible, he's power forward slash small forward. So I think what we do is our starting lineup is D-Rose, Kobe, Yanis, Hakim, Kareem, and then Michael Jordan comes off the bench. But Doom comes off the bench. Pozingis comes off the bench. That works really well for me, actually. So it'll be a little tricky right now until we get Yanis fully upgraded. But I guess we'll do it. And then all we need with Yanis is 10 points, and he's a diamond. So I feel like it won't even be that hard. We'll put our 92 diamond Yanis on the bench coming in with Chris Daps, Buttoom, Josh Hart, Niren Fox. I like this.   This right here makes me so happy, dude. I love my center power forward. I like the squad. All right, let's see what our challenge wheel is as well before we happen to this game.  This is episode number four. Score 60 plus. Okay. I know that sounds poverty, but you have to understand that when I was high, I scored 20 whole points, like 20 points in four quarters. I think this is actually a pretty reasonable challenge.  Jerry Stackhouse, Marc Gasol, the Marcus Cousins. Interesting. Hey, good start, Hakim, wide open bucket. It's always a good day when you start out with a stop and a bucky. See, like when people do custom jerseys like this, it's cool. Like I respect this. Yup, yup. Down into Kareem, good pumpy. He's jumping away too much. Or is there having a seven foot two power forward and a seven foot center is the exact thing I needed. And you know what? I actually like Kareem at power forward better because on average, I think power forwards are going to be smaller and Kareem is seven foot two. So on average, I think Kareem's going to get the better of this guy. And already we're just playing entirely through our centers right now. That was the most obvious travel ever. This game just does not track travels. You're going to get body down here, sir. Let's go. There's Kareem on Steph and Curry. They literally didn't even count that as coverage. They just put coverage open when Curry's right there. Oh, we broke the rose. Got to shoot it if you break them like that. That wasn't a good shot, but I respect it. And that's a bucket for me. No, he won't. That's going to miss. Ball don't lie. Yup. Yannis is in. Wait, I think this Yannis can shoot threes. Can he? Oh, so bad. All right. Fine. He doesn't have limitless range, but I bet you he can shoot them. That Jerry Stackhouse can definitely. Into Diamond Yannis who's got cousins on it. I'm going to take this. Okay. Okay. I actually like that because of how open Hakeem was. They double teamed Yannis. So it's pretty easy rebound. 12 points in the paint. That is literally all of my points. And he has three, three pointers. This is a game of guards versus setters. He's going to be shooting threes all game. I'm going to be playing in the post all game. We'll see how it plays. That may be his first post. Nope. He doesn't get it. He doesn't know how to play in the post. Bam out of bio. I'm sorry, but you can't guard Hakeem. I got to figure out how to do the dream shape. Hakeem for a deep two. That's a great shot.  Let's go. This may be one of the first games where I'm truly just playing 2K. I'm not thinking about anything. The challenge helps score 60 plus. We're very much on pace right now. On pace for 80 actually. Hakeem is on fire. 12 points. Two rebounds. How many can we drop with them? Oh, Boogie's going to get a free one. Damn. We were clamping for so long there though. Going to cross left. Oh, I think I can actually hit him with a baby hook. I like the shot. I like the shot still. Oh, Josh Hart with a rip. Up to Karim. One more pass. Wide open two ball. Oh, Ruby's a lot harder to shoot with. Oh, Batum. Let's go. I hit 10. I've got Batum and I've got Porzingis. He's in the blender right now. As I say it, he gets a wide open three. Shit. Great shot. I played that horribly. Okay. Okay, Porzingis. I see you. You know he's going to hit that. Finally back on the board. That was a tough run right there. I got four more buckets, but it's a three point game because he's shooting so many threes. Don't need that shot. Don't need that shot especially because Karim now has a mismatch. He switched hands. He's six point lead right here. I'm kind of losing the 60 plus points so I was scoring so much better in the first. Obviously, you know, my starters are in, but it's coast to coast that Karim. Oh, yes. Find him in the corner. Ruby's got a heart for Batum. Don't quit.  Karim is locked in. That's really like the biggest part of that is the fact that Karim is locked in because he's going to be God tier the rest of the season. Absolutely. All right. Rage quit. It's slightly updated and I'll get whatever we got out of it. Come on. Come on. Give me something good. You know I need it. I'm telling you what though, the MT for one player is probably the best trick because you can literally get dark matters for that. Like 50 KMT is nothing in the game right now, but I get some sick dark matters for that. Can I get Dwayne Wade for that? It would be kind of funny karma if I could get Wade right back. You can't get Wade for that much. I think a backup point would be pretty clutch here. Dude, Iggy is amazing. I would literally buy that Iggy again, but I want to have some variety here. So we're not going to do that. I am tempted to use Paul Pierce point guard. That would be pretty cool. Big size mismatch. She can shoot. You know what? I've been wearing this Golden State shirt for all of these dubs. I will go with the Curry. I'm going to go with this Curry right here. I think that's the only one I can afford. There's like another good Curry, but he's, yeah, he's not giving me this cheap. I can get him for a pretty good price. So it's just close to 50 KMT, 37 to 50. For power within dark matter, 99. Steph Curry, that is our bench point guard. He's actually going to be a beast. The reason I don't know if he's better than B Rose, he probably is, but the reason I don't start him is because when I use a point guard like Steph Curry, it makes me want to shoot threes and I suck at that. All right. Hey, another amazing episode. I'm sorry. This one's getting cut short just because we got such a quick range quit, but hopefully next time it'll be an even bigger banger. I am going to switch it to the Hakeem jersey though. As much as we clutched up with the amazing amount of time the team won't take wars. I've been a fan since they won a championship. Hakeem literally dropped like 16 straight points there. So. All right, boys.  I forgot about Jordan. That's another win. I can get dark matter Jordan. All right. Well, you know what? I will acquire him and you'll see him in the next episode because that's an hour away anyway. Next episode, we'll have this Michael Jordan. All right. Hey, love you boys. Big dub. I'll see you the next time with invincible Michael Jordan.


This was to honor the great Daniel Ellsberg. And I just want to highlight all the amazing stories that were shared with us today by all three of our panelists and also just so many people in the chat had personal stories with Dan Ellsberg, which I think just speaks to how ingrained he made himself in the anti-war movement after being a whistleblower. He didn't just whistleblow and debout on us. He stayed with us for literally his entire life and we are standing on the shoulders of giants and I hope that we can take what Dan has given us in his very long life of anti-war work, take it with us, take his confidence and competence and honestly care as well. He spent so much time caring for people and that's sort of the foundation of anti-war work is caring about people not just here, not just yourselves, not just people you know, but everywhere in the world. So Dan, we love you if you're listening.
