- This week we’re extremely excited to welcome Cleveland Cavaliers big man Jarrett Allen for his first appearance on The Old Man and The Three! JJ and Tommy open up the episode by taking a look at the recent play of the Milwaukee Bucks, Boston Celtics, Miami Heat, and other Eastern Conference contenders to find out how likely each could make it out of the east. Then, Jarrett joins to discuss whether or not he thinks he should’ve been an NBA All-Star this season and his improvements and developments on the Cavs and how it compares to his play from when he was on the Brooklyn Nets. He also gets into what it was like playing with Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving on the Nets. Jarrett also explains how the Cavs had an amazing record when Darius Garland and Evan Mobley with both injured. Then, he talks about Donovan Mitchell’s incredible (maybe MVP-like?) season, the expectations the Cavs have for this year’s playoffs, and what he learned from last year’s series against the New York Knicks. He also shares amazing insight on how his role as a big has changed over the last few seasons as the league changes, and his mindset about blocking dunks. Lastly, they close it out with a draft of their favorite baked goods.

We love JA in Cleveland. Not just on the court dude does a lot for the community. Great guy
Always seeing him around in Westlake !
He has been an amazing player that has a great relationship with both the fans and the media. Couldn't ask for more.
I really hope he stays with us long term !! He’s been great for us since day one. I thought it was steal when we got him
as a nets fan you guys really have a good one with Jarrett Allen wish nothing but success for him
Jarrett is a cool dude
Jarrett's bakery selection fits his personality. Straight up and down. No special effects.
Lol fr
One of the most lovable dudes (and teams in general) in the league. Excited to see him in person Sunday against the Knicks!
Been one of my favorite Cavs ever since he got here!
Do you think we can call him, sexton and Mitchell a big 3?
@@taahasiddiqui1071 huh?
@@taahasiddiqui1071Do you mean garland???
@@taahasiddiqui1071sexton been gone for years bro 😂
I always noticed Jarrett Allen and it always seemed like a really nice guy. Really rooting for this guy and wishing him all the blessings 🙏😁
As a Cavs fan this was awesome. Great insight, JA comes across really well. Love the draft as always 👍
This was an awesome interview 👏🏻 JA seems like a great guy!!
facts
Great interview. Jarrett Allen is an awesome person. Glad to root for him and the Cavs.
From a Portuguese fan, we have so much more sweet pastries, even specific to different regions of Portugal, than pastéis de nata but that will forever be a number 1 for me regardless. I could live off of these things. Bummed I didn't cross paths with you when you were in Portugal, would love to say "Hi", congratulate you on your basketball player retirement success in the media and beat you in a free throw shooting contest in the nearest court. 😉 One of my favorite players to watch growing up. Cheers 🇵🇹
Go neemias queta 🍀 💪
Went to a Cavs game in early January against the bucks. I don't think Jarrett missed a shot until the 4th quarter. Had like 30 and 10. Great player and a great interview.
PIZZA!!!! The undrafted GOAT
First thing I thought...not a mention
These dudes really didn't draft pizza, when JJ made the Greg Oden comment I was thinking about it and dude says bagel lol
Jarrett is truly the man. One of my favorite players of all-time.
As a net fan I can 100% say we as a whole would do anything to have that pre Kai-KD team considering how that went down
I believe David Robinson also built a computer back in the 1980's. The admiral had a similar approach to playing basketball like Jared too!
JJ picking Pasteis de nata for his final pick in the baked goods draft is peak JJ Redick
LETS GO CAVS!!!
Love that the draft is back these past few episodes now... Keep it up
allen effortlessly swept the draft omg most dominant performance in OM3 history
JJ you did an excellent job commentating ESPN LA game..I hope you are a commentator team during the playoffs!!
He’s doing the finals with breen and (sadly) Doris Burke as great as she is.
No more Beth Mullins!
I couldn't believe the NBA was trotting Doc and Doris Burke out there like they were the A team lololol nobody is trying to hear either of those 2 mfs
Pastel de nata JJ you are a real one
Cleveland loves this man
Seems like a very down to earth guy. 👍🏼👍🏼
Everything jj described as strengths for a bagel can be said about a croissant too😂
FINALLY!
Jarett Allen picking bread is the most Jarrett Allen thing of all time
he made up for it with backlava
Whenever you guys are in Manhattan, stop by at Chelsea Market for a Portuguese espresso and fresh pasteis de nata!! Not as good the originals in Lisbon but very, very close! And then you know why JJ made the best choice!! 😉😁😁
Let’s go!
Hat is super fire Tommy!
He’s never played for my team but I’ve always like Jarrett.
Jj hating on crossaints just to pick bagels is insane
Nets fans love JA 🔥🔥
All-star person and player
JA is the man, we want him in cleveland for a long time!
Most important player on the squad
Respect to FRO for picking packlava❤
Before Kyrie came to the Nets they were a fun team to watch. Jarrett Allen played wonderfully. You could see his development as you watched him play, and then they trade him away for the Beard. You can understand why they went for the superstars to go for the ring, but it turned out to be a mistake, and one of the biggest mistakes was trading the Fro.
I was so sad when Brooklyn lost this guy.
Cornbread was the steal of the draft, he’s on all the time, one of the best work ethics
Humble dude.. I don't sense any arrogance in him..
JJs all star game roster gotta be like 25 players each conference
There’s a chance MIL’s defensive surge is also a byproduct of the “newness” of their schematic shift. Let’s see how it holds up as opponents adjust
ANY baked goods and no one drafted PIZZA??? this is outrageous
A duke player just got hurt at wake forest due to the court storming. It needs to wait til the away team gets off the court
he played the next game… AND duke stormed the field when they beat Clemson in football this season.
Jarrett Allen just like me frfr
Tommy, big fan. I want to know starting lineup of favorite players from when you were a teenager
Chocolate babka is insane value in the 5th round.
Yoooo...what did they cut at 35:00 🤔🤔
Something like "and then THEY got there" lol
Would love to see you chop it up with Giannis! 🇬🇷 Another great documentary just came out about him on Amazon prime
I was very surprised at the beginning of the season when the Bucks seemed to be everyone's favorite in the East. They basically added Dame and lost Jrue. As much as I love Dame, I just don't think that's a tremendous upgrade, not because Dame _isn't_ great, but because Jrue _is._ It's obviously a big upgrade on offense, but it's also obviously a big downgrade on defense.
The Giannis-era Bucks have had fantastic defense, particularly interior defense. With Jrue they also had maybe the best perimeter defender in the world, which is how they won a title. The offense was a little suspect because they lacked creation and penetration outside of Giannis, and with Dame they get better shooting, penetration, and creation, but no longer have good perimeter defense while still playing 100% drop coverage. So it's different than their title team; it's hard to say whether it's better or worse, but it's different.
I feel like some people think a team can just lose Jrue Holiday without losing defensive equity, and that's just not true _(not Jrue?)._ I thought the Celtics might really struggle on defense this year when they lost Marcus Smart _and_ Grant Williams _and_ Robert Williams, but they added Jrue and Porzingis, and are somehow significantly better. I don't think people should lose sight of the fact that the Celtics basically replaced DPOY Smart and defensive utility guy extraordinaire Williams and one of the best, most switchable centers in Williams with Jrue Holiday and got _better_ on defense _(Porzingis is perfectly fine on defense but he's no Time Lord; they're obviously leveraging Derrick White and Al Horford a lot as well)._ Jrue's offensive stats are fine but not amazing so I think people overlook just how valuable he is.
I can’t pick the winner between Jarrett and Tommy for that draft but I definitely know who came in last 😂
Brownies in the 4th round is a bit reminiscent of Jokic at the 41st pick I must say
The Old Man got the best list lol 1:05:35
JJ won the draft with the pastel de nata pick in the 5th round.
Most G thing ever when some dude tried punking him for wearing hoodies and jeans everywhere, and his response was just bet i got more 💰 in the bank than you. Love this guy. Do your Bro…the 216 will forever love you.
Doc's gonna get another Chip! Chemistry is awesome
lol, he only know how to play D
Hope he talks about the elden ring dlc
Bake goods draft has me deaddddddd
JJ spot-on about cornbread quality variability. Great job on the draft in general too. Tommy did so poorly though idk what he's on
Jarrett did a great job with some of his too
Bread & brownies are slept. Jarrett won the draft fs
I'm not a blueberry muffin guy either Jarrett 😤 I will grab almost any other variety of muffin before reaching for blueberry
No cinnamon bun or chocolate chip banana bread in the picks is a shock
Can we get some pat Connaughton and tj McConnell interviews??
Yeah if either would do absolutely anything this season. I mean anything.
Nobody saying pizza hurts my heart
JA a future coach no doubt lol
I am the 1 in 10 people freaking out over JJs last pick in the draft 😂
@jjRedick we need a timeline JJ
JJ looks like he’s had some sleepless nights since his outburst ….Ha!ha! Is Doc one of them in the league FAF……1
Drafts are back for good?
Can’t believe you guys missed a freshly wood fired veggie pizza.
JJs draft logic is impeccable...you should have never gave him the time off to work on his craft.
Tommy absolutely destroyed the others on the baked goods draft. Wasn't even close.
Corner Bakery made an awesome raisin pecan bread.
I wasn't ready for JJ to pick Kouign amann #Brittanyforthewin
how is a blueberry muffin not picked in the draft?!?”
Cinnamon roll
Nah man bfr this the same guy saying the lights were brighter than expected saying he doesn’t get nervous from expectations 🤣
Bagels are redundant. We have bread.
Best player on the cavs , they don’t even compete if he leaves don’t @ me
For any Cavs fans: why does he always yell after getting called for a defensive 3 second violation?
They celebrate protecting the paint lol. I think it's great. I mean obviously you don't want the foul but that's their commitment to defense
Did this guy just say Chris Middleton is a future Hall of Famer 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
If Lasagna was allowed to pick that means Pizza would have been allowed. And that means all three of you would lose your GM jobs.
Other than that Jarret Allen clear winner even though picking bread seems like a cheat. JJ strong with Pastei del Nata.
No pineapple upside down cake
Listen to a JJ Redick podcast and take a drink every time he brings up Derrick White or Kristaps Porzingis. It’s a good drinking game because it’s guaranteed alcohol poisoning.
Kouign Amann "kween Ah-mahn"
Great pick on the Pasteis de Nata. If you're ever in Philly hit up my friend's Cafe, Gilda, they crush the Natas.
I wanna play helldivers with JA
Wiseman should hook up with Allen off season...
CAVS COMMENTS CORNER
How the hell am I not going to post on this one. 6 days late, shameful
We love the Jarrett Allen. More dunks buddy. Also let's get Evan injected with some of the scarier PEDs. With darts from afar if he's not cooperative
a few posts back I said DG is #2 herky jerky man, which is insane; he's behind both Luka and SGA at least...though he needs to study some steve nash tape, just run on through bud...getting his lunch eaten in the paint every time.
Celtics game happened since this, what a feather in Sir CC's big hat. Then almost came back against the hawks, if not for uh 0 of the 4Q shots going in. I feel good going into the playoffs if everyone's healthy
Been a fan since the early nets ,, he would look great in that thunder blue with chet
Give us Dort and William, then you can have him 🤣
Dr J father and son
O H
I O
I wish they asked him having to get an iPhone bc they kicked him out of the group chat for having an android 😂
Andrew Bynum built computers
- a bitter sixers fan
What the hell! No N.Y. cheesecake?
Yo no offense but you’re terrible if you play vantage. You’re team constantly screaming at you because you’re sniping 60m away lol?
not even 1k likes for one of the most likable dudes in the nba? this is why no one wants to play in cleveland - 2nd in the east and no one even cares ...
Stand up guy even tho he cost me money this week with that stupid foul on Derozen and only getting 4 rebounds that game smh.
Don't gamble
Crazy how lazy you are with timestamps
what is this white boy's job anyway?? despite being absolutely useless for any ball talk, he could at least put some effort into breaking this thing down smh 👎
The softest 🤧 player in the NBA by far..
