1 00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:02,720 Speaker 1: So you got the trade deadline coming up, you've got 2 00:00:02,720 --> 00:00:05,880 Speaker 1: my voice hanging on for dear life, you've got the 3 00:00:05,880 --> 00:00:08,400 Speaker 1: Super Bowl coming up on Sunday, and Eddie, this to 4 00:00:08,520 --> 00:00:11,120 Speaker 1: me is super exciting. Now there are two reasons why 5 00:00:11,560 --> 00:00:15,320 Speaker 1: this next part of the show is exciting to me. Okay, 6 00:00:16,040 --> 00:00:18,720 Speaker 1: there's no doubt we all know. I've never made any 7 00:00:18,720 --> 00:00:22,759 Speaker 1: two bones about it. This is the quinn essential three 8 00:00:22,800 --> 00:00:25,480 Speaker 1: hour a day dog and Pony show, right like we 9 00:00:25,520 --> 00:00:29,360 Speaker 1: come in here. And one of the odd things about 10 00:00:29,400 --> 00:00:32,720 Speaker 1: this job is when you get to interact with actual 11 00:00:32,800 --> 00:00:36,239 Speaker 1: broadcast professionals, and then you think to yourself, I need 12 00:00:36,280 --> 00:00:38,919 Speaker 1: as many of those people skulking around as possible to 13 00:00:39,000 --> 00:00:42,600 Speaker 1: give this sort of amateur hour some legitimacy. And then 14 00:00:42,680 --> 00:00:45,480 Speaker 1: you add to that that we're going international. Now, Eddie, 15 00:00:45,520 --> 00:00:47,680 Speaker 1: we've had our friends on from Australia. I think once. 16 00:00:47,760 --> 00:00:50,800 Speaker 1: Have we made any other international calls on this program? 17 00:00:51,280 --> 00:00:54,400 Speaker 1: I don't think we have. Do you know Italian? Second? 18 00:00:54,560 --> 00:00:55,480 Speaker 1: Can you speak Italian? 19 00:00:55,560 --> 00:00:57,880 Speaker 2: Wait a second, did we have some do we call 20 00:00:57,960 --> 00:00:59,640 Speaker 2: somebody during the last Olympic run? 21 00:01:00,080 --> 00:01:02,200 Speaker 1: I don't think we did. Did we I thought we did? 22 00:01:02,800 --> 00:01:05,360 Speaker 1: We had David Woods, but he was here no, David 23 00:01:05,400 --> 00:01:08,280 Speaker 1: Woods was. I don't think we talked to him from Japan. 24 00:01:08,400 --> 00:01:10,559 Speaker 1: I thought, I think now Japan he was at Benny 25 00:01:10,600 --> 00:01:14,800 Speaker 1: Hannah and Keystone of the Crossing when we talk. But 26 00:01:14,880 --> 00:01:18,560 Speaker 1: she is not, by the way, at Fizzoli. He's on Keystone, 27 00:01:18,640 --> 00:01:21,479 Speaker 1: but rather in Milan, Italy. And she is with WTHR 28 00:01:21,560 --> 00:01:24,560 Speaker 1: Channel thirteen, and Marie Taarnan is covering. And this is 29 00:01:24,600 --> 00:01:28,360 Speaker 1: amazing as my mathematics are correct, especially considering her youth, 30 00:01:28,520 --> 00:01:31,800 Speaker 1: her thirty second Olympic Games is what I understand.

So the Games 58 00:02:55,919 --> 00:03:01,720 Speaker 1: begin the opening ceremonies tomorrow night, correct, right? The typically 59 00:03:01,919 --> 00:03:04,639 Speaker 1: you know sometimes emory and the great thing about the Olympics, 60 00:03:04,680 --> 00:03:07,080 Speaker 1: I mean kidding aside, is that this is where and 61 00:03:07,120 --> 00:03:09,480 Speaker 1: this is what I've always loved about it. And unfortunately 62 00:03:09,840 --> 00:03:12,280 Speaker 1: this hasn't always been the case. I mean, there are 63 00:03:12,440 --> 00:03:14,679 Speaker 1: you know, we've had boycotts in eighty and eighty four, 64 00:03:14,800 --> 00:03:17,400 Speaker 1: We've had terrible international incident in seventy two. I mean, 65 00:03:17,440 --> 00:03:19,800 Speaker 1: there have been things that have taken place. But for 66 00:03:19,840 --> 00:03:21,920 Speaker 1: the most part, the beauty and the intention of the 67 00:03:21,960 --> 00:03:24,960 Speaker 1: Olympics is it's, you know, where everything is put aside 68 00:03:25,639 --> 00:03:29,080 Speaker 1: and countries come together in this great human spirit. What 69 00:03:29,320 --> 00:03:33,880 Speaker 1: is the overwhelming I guess storyline or thought going into 70 00:03:33,919 --> 00:03:36,480 Speaker 1: this Olympics. Have you gotten any sort of a feel 71 00:03:37,240 --> 00:03:39,320 Speaker 1: or is there anything that people like kind of have 72 00:03:39,400 --> 00:03:42,280 Speaker 1: an eye on of curiosity as to how things may 73 00:03:42,360 --> 00:03:43,960 Speaker 1: go in one area or another. 74 00:03:45,080 --> 00:03:48,600 Speaker 3: Well, you know, if we're talking about security or you know, 75 00:03:48,640 --> 00:03:51,880 Speaker 3: if there's protests or anything like that. I mean, I've 76 00:03:52,040 --> 00:03:55,480 Speaker 3: been here in Milan now for a week. I had 77 00:03:55,560 --> 00:03:59,280 Speaker 3: heard that there were some ice protesters that were here, 78 00:03:59,440 --> 00:04:01,600 Speaker 3: and there was and colleagues from NBC that went out 79 00:04:01,640 --> 00:04:05,720 Speaker 3: and shot it. It was not a thing really, I mean, 80 00:04:06,040 --> 00:04:07,920 Speaker 3: it was what it was, you know. I mean there 81 00:04:08,000 --> 00:04:11,280 Speaker 3: was the video of that for that moment, but I 82 00:04:11,320 --> 00:04:14,160 Speaker 3: haven't seen anything or heard anything of that sense. I 83 00:04:14,200 --> 00:04:17,720 Speaker 3: think for the people of Italy, it's different than the 84 00:04:17,800 --> 00:04:20,599 Speaker 3: vibe that we got from the Parisians. You know, when 85 00:04:20,600 --> 00:04:25,839 Speaker 3: we went to Paris with Samantha Johnson representing WHR two 86 00:04:25,920 --> 00:04:29,320 Speaker 3: years ago, and the sense generally from the people in 87 00:04:29,360 --> 00:04:32,280 Speaker 3: Paris was like we don't want this. I mean, there's 88 00:04:32,520 --> 00:04:34,720 Speaker 3: the world is coming here. We're not going to be 89 00:04:34,720 --> 00:04:36,440 Speaker 3: able to get on the subway. They're going to take 90 00:04:36,480 --> 00:04:39,920 Speaker 3: all our cafes. It's going to be a mess. And 91 00:04:40,040 --> 00:04:42,760 Speaker 3: so we're going to leave, We're gonna go on holiday 92 00:04:43,120 --> 00:04:45,080 Speaker 3: and then we're going to list our home on Airbnb 93 00:04:45,240 --> 00:04:47,640 Speaker 3: and make a lot of money, you know, And it 94 00:04:47,839 --> 00:04:50,800 Speaker 3: just that was that was kind of the vibe totally 95 00:04:50,800 --> 00:04:54,479 Speaker 3: different here in Italy. And I think because it's not 96 00:04:54,680 --> 00:04:59,960 Speaker 3: everyone descending in one place, because there's actually six cities involved, 97 00:05:00,279 --> 00:05:04,000 Speaker 3: two hosted thees, Milano and Cortina, and so you don't 98 00:05:04,040 --> 00:05:09,000 Speaker 3: have this big concentration, this big Olympic footprint anywhere. We're 99 00:05:09,080 --> 00:05:13,040 Speaker 3: kind of spread out over northern Italy. Five hour drive 100 00:05:13,200 --> 00:05:16,599 Speaker 3: between here and Courtina. I'm not running up there and 101 00:05:17,160 --> 00:05:19,640 Speaker 3: you know, checking out the action and then coming back, 102 00:05:19,960 --> 00:05:22,400 Speaker 3: I'm pretty much checking out what's. 103 00:05:22,240 --> 00:05:23,400 Speaker 4: Going on in Milan. 104 00:05:23,880 --> 00:05:26,680 Speaker 3: And if you're thinking about, well, where are all these events, 105 00:05:26,680 --> 00:05:31,160 Speaker 3: that's it's hard to wrap your mind around. Generally, if 106 00:05:31,160 --> 00:05:34,000 Speaker 3: you think ice events, you think speed skating, you think 107 00:05:36,240 --> 00:05:39,960 Speaker 3: short track, you think hockey, you think you know, of 108 00:05:40,000 --> 00:05:44,240 Speaker 3: course the beautiful you know, figure skating, all the ice 109 00:05:44,279 --> 00:05:47,839 Speaker 3: events in Lan and then if you think snow events, 110 00:05:48,320 --> 00:05:52,240 Speaker 3: ski events, alpine events, they're going to be in Courtina 111 00:05:52,520 --> 00:05:55,520 Speaker 3: or in some of these other venues. Lavina that's where 112 00:05:55,600 --> 00:05:59,320 Speaker 3: Nick Gepper from Indiana is going to be. And he 113 00:05:59,440 --> 00:06:01,920 Speaker 3: just got here today by the way, went and picked 114 00:06:02,000 --> 00:06:04,600 Speaker 3: up his gear and processing. He's going to be walking 115 00:06:04,640 --> 00:06:09,080 Speaker 3: and opening ceremony here tomorrow and then they're going to 116 00:06:09,160 --> 00:06:13,839 Speaker 3: go up with his teammates to Switzerland and do some 117 00:06:13,960 --> 00:06:17,440 Speaker 3: training there because his competition is actually until just a 118 00:06:17,480 --> 00:06:19,960 Speaker 3: few days before closing. So he's going to be here 119 00:06:19,960 --> 00:06:22,360 Speaker 3: and opening have a little bit of that vibe that's 120 00:06:22,480 --> 00:06:26,520 Speaker 3: forced Olympics to do this and then go away, train. 121 00:06:26,640 --> 00:06:27,360 Speaker 4: And come back. 122 00:06:27,760 --> 00:06:30,200 Speaker 3: But I think another thing that's really interesting about these 123 00:06:30,240 --> 00:06:33,560 Speaker 3: games is ever before we had two host cities. So 124 00:06:33,640 --> 00:06:38,120 Speaker 3: you've got Milano and you've got Courtina, and so for 125 00:06:38,200 --> 00:06:41,320 Speaker 3: the opening ceremony it's going to be based out of 126 00:06:41,400 --> 00:06:42,520 Speaker 3: both locations. 127 00:06:42,880 --> 00:06:44,360 Speaker 4: There's going to be two cauldrons. 128 00:06:44,400 --> 00:06:48,120 Speaker 3: The two cauldrons are going to be lit simultaneously, and 129 00:06:48,160 --> 00:06:51,320 Speaker 3: then you're going to have this really cool opportunity to 130 00:06:51,440 --> 00:06:55,200 Speaker 3: see the athletes that are competing in these other venues, 131 00:06:55,320 --> 00:06:58,159 Speaker 3: like or you know up in the mountaintowns up in Kurtina, 132 00:06:59,400 --> 00:07:02,039 Speaker 3: the parade nations for those athletes is going to be 133 00:07:02,080 --> 00:07:06,040 Speaker 3: down the streets of Cortina where seventy years ago, nineteen 134 00:07:06,080 --> 00:07:06,599 Speaker 3: fifty six. 135 00:07:06,760 --> 00:07:08,240 Speaker 4: I know you're a history about Jake. 136 00:07:08,440 --> 00:07:08,960 Speaker 1: I am. 137 00:07:08,960 --> 00:07:13,400 Speaker 3: Seventy years ago Cortina hosted the Winter Olympics, and so 138 00:07:13,480 --> 00:07:15,800 Speaker 3: now seventy years later, you're gonna have the athletes down 139 00:07:15,800 --> 00:07:16,200 Speaker 3: there doing. 140 00:07:16,160 --> 00:07:19,200 Speaker 4: The Fraid of Nations. They're going to do Afraid of Nations. 141 00:07:18,880 --> 00:07:21,360 Speaker 3: Here in Milano too, But it's not going to be 142 00:07:21,480 --> 00:07:23,840 Speaker 3: all the athletes in one place. 143 00:07:23,600 --> 00:07:26,520 Speaker 1: Okay, So the United States team, for example, will be 144 00:07:26,640 --> 00:07:29,280 Speaker 1: split based on so in other words, the United States 145 00:07:29,320 --> 00:07:33,360 Speaker 1: will be represented in both places for the both opening ceremonies. 146 00:07:33,600 --> 00:07:37,160 Speaker 3: Yes, there's actually four places where they're going to be 147 00:07:37,720 --> 00:07:40,040 Speaker 3: dipping into in the coverage, but those. 148 00:07:39,880 --> 00:07:40,360 Speaker 5: Are the two. 149 00:07:40,520 --> 00:07:43,160 Speaker 4: Those are the two that are the primary. And so. 150 00:07:45,520 --> 00:07:48,800 Speaker 3: I think Nick, since just got here in Milan today, 151 00:07:48,880 --> 00:07:51,600 Speaker 3: I think Nick is going to be walking here, so 152 00:07:51,640 --> 00:07:53,640 Speaker 3: you can be looking for him from the Milano thing. 153 00:07:53,720 --> 00:07:55,400 Speaker 3: I can confirm that, But it doesn't make sense that 154 00:07:55,480 --> 00:07:56,600 Speaker 3: he would go up to Cortina. 155 00:07:57,280 --> 00:07:58,840 Speaker 4: I don't know. Maybe you go to Quurteina and then 156 00:07:58,840 --> 00:07:59,640 Speaker 4: go up to Switzerland. 157 00:08:00,120 --> 00:08:03,880 Speaker 3: Sure, but yeah, if you see the preadive nations and 158 00:08:03,920 --> 00:08:06,560 Speaker 3: everyone's walking around an arena, like if you think of 159 00:08:07,160 --> 00:08:11,040 Speaker 3: you know, Beijing, the Bird's Nest, big stadium, it's this 160 00:08:11,200 --> 00:08:13,560 Speaker 3: loop around the stadium. But now they're going to be 161 00:08:13,560 --> 00:08:15,280 Speaker 3: going down the streets of Corpina. 162 00:08:15,320 --> 00:08:18,280 Speaker 4: I think that's just going to be visually really super cool. 163 00:08:18,640 --> 00:08:21,600 Speaker 3: And I was listening to the IOC press conference that 164 00:08:21,680 --> 00:08:24,680 Speaker 3: they had earlier this week, and you know, as you 165 00:08:24,720 --> 00:08:29,520 Speaker 3: can imagine for the media, you know, they're critical and saying, oh, 166 00:08:29,560 --> 00:08:32,080 Speaker 3: this is so spread out, the logistics are so challenging. 167 00:08:32,120 --> 00:08:36,280 Speaker 3: It's hard for the fans and the Really the response 168 00:08:36,320 --> 00:08:42,920 Speaker 3: from the IOC was, this is an Olympics for the athletes. 169 00:08:43,400 --> 00:08:47,640 Speaker 3: The athletes don't need to leave their venue and travel 170 00:08:47,720 --> 00:08:51,000 Speaker 3: for five hours to participate in opening or closing ceremony. 171 00:08:51,320 --> 00:08:54,959 Speaker 3: They don't need to have one athlete village and then 172 00:08:55,120 --> 00:08:57,840 Speaker 3: either they can it's good for them or not. We 173 00:08:57,960 --> 00:09:02,440 Speaker 3: have six athlete villages, we have multiple press centers, we 174 00:09:02,520 --> 00:09:06,240 Speaker 3: have multiple places for them to participate in the ceremonies, 175 00:09:06,520 --> 00:09:09,600 Speaker 3: and so this isn't This really is a game that's 176 00:09:09,679 --> 00:09:14,880 Speaker 3: for the athletes, and they used venues that were already existing. 177 00:09:15,000 --> 00:09:17,360 Speaker 3: And I think that's the other thing that'sits so different. 178 00:09:17,360 --> 00:09:20,480 Speaker 3: If you go to basing the summer games like an OA, 179 00:09:20,559 --> 00:09:24,680 Speaker 3: they built this big park and you had security to 180 00:09:24,679 --> 00:09:27,280 Speaker 3: get into the Olympic Park, and then in there were 181 00:09:27,360 --> 00:09:27,960 Speaker 3: the venues. 182 00:09:28,040 --> 00:09:30,679 Speaker 4: Okay, this is where they're doing track and field. 183 00:09:30,400 --> 00:09:32,360 Speaker 3: This is where they're doing swimming, this is where they're 184 00:09:32,400 --> 00:09:36,400 Speaker 3: doing diving, and it was all created for that time. 185 00:09:36,840 --> 00:09:40,760 Speaker 3: London very similar Olympic Park. You had security to go 186 00:09:40,880 --> 00:09:43,800 Speaker 3: into the park, there were all the sponsors and vendors there, 187 00:09:44,559 --> 00:09:46,800 Speaker 3: some venues were associated with it. 188 00:09:46,920 --> 00:09:48,760 Speaker 4: Same with so Cheap, but. 189 00:09:48,840 --> 00:09:52,320 Speaker 3: Here there is no Olympic Park. It's you're in Milan, 190 00:09:52,559 --> 00:09:56,280 Speaker 3: you're in Fortino, you're in the city, and they're refurbishing 191 00:09:56,800 --> 00:09:58,199 Speaker 3: venues that they already had. 192 00:09:58,280 --> 00:10:01,360 Speaker 1: By the way, what's Milan looked like if you were 193 00:10:01,440 --> 00:10:03,640 Speaker 1: if if you did not know that you had been 194 00:10:03,679 --> 00:10:05,760 Speaker 1: on a plane for that long. I always asked this 195 00:10:05,840 --> 00:10:07,800 Speaker 1: question to people elsewhere and you thought you were in 196 00:10:07,840 --> 00:10:10,480 Speaker 1: the United States. For those of us who have been 197 00:10:10,480 --> 00:10:12,920 Speaker 1: in the US and not been to Milan, would it 198 00:10:13,000 --> 00:10:15,120 Speaker 1: be what like kind of like San Francisco would be 199 00:10:15,200 --> 00:10:17,880 Speaker 1: my guess, or you like the Wine country a bay area? 200 00:10:17,960 --> 00:10:18,440 Speaker 1: Is that right? 201 00:10:19,400 --> 00:10:22,800 Speaker 3: Well, it's really interesting you say that because when we landed, 202 00:10:22,880 --> 00:10:25,080 Speaker 3: you know where, everyone said what it looks like? 203 00:10:26,160 --> 00:10:27,640 Speaker 4: Just yes, it is not what you said. 204 00:10:27,800 --> 00:10:32,920 Speaker 1: Monsey, New Jersey really the Garden State, Eddie. 205 00:10:33,000 --> 00:10:37,800 Speaker 3: Okay, well when we landed, you know it just you're 206 00:10:37,840 --> 00:10:40,400 Speaker 3: out of the airport, so it's about forty minutes. 207 00:10:40,160 --> 00:10:40,600 Speaker 5: To get to them. 208 00:10:40,760 --> 00:10:42,920 Speaker 1: So everyone in Milan has a fake tan, is what 209 00:10:42,960 --> 00:10:46,320 Speaker 1: you're getting at?

Now, 267 00:13:13,960 --> 00:13:16,320 Speaker 1: the question is does that come now or does that 268 00:13:16,360 --> 00:13:19,720 Speaker 1: come perhaps in the off season via a free agency 269 00:13:20,000 --> 00:13:23,720 Speaker 1: or a sign in trade. Been mathering. The name most 270 00:13:23,800 --> 00:13:26,280 Speaker 1: commonly linked joining us now Jaba House, Peel and Port 271 00:13:26,320 --> 00:13:29,400 Speaker 1: guest line.

You get 274 00:13:34,480 --> 00:13:35,160 Speaker 1: what I'm saying there. 275 00:13:35,120 --> 00:13:39,040 Speaker 6: Right, Tony, I'm actually driving right now, So I'm literally moving. 276 00:13:39,120 --> 00:13:42,880 Speaker 1: Okay, So, and you're driving where to from where to where? 277 00:13:42,960 --> 00:13:45,160 Speaker 1: You can just you don't have to be specifically, but 278 00:13:45,160 --> 00:13:45,760 Speaker 1: what side of the top? 279 00:13:46,640 --> 00:13:47,960 Speaker 7: How specific do you want me to be? 280 00:13:48,040 --> 00:13:51,320 Speaker 6: Because I am very peculiar on my trade deadline day travels. 281 00:13:51,400 --> 00:13:54,120 Speaker 1: I need a street name so that we can get 282 00:13:54,160 --> 00:13:55,079 Speaker 1: a traffic report. 283 00:13:55,760 --> 00:13:57,000 Speaker 7: Oh, Meridian Downtown. 284 00:13:57,440 --> 00:14:00,320 Speaker 1: Oh well you can if you hook a right here 285 00:14:00,360 --> 00:14:03,360 Speaker 1: on tenth Street and a wave, I'll see you. It'd 286 00:14:03,400 --> 00:14:03,840 Speaker 1: be fun. 287 00:14:04,400 --> 00:14:06,839 Speaker 6: So I'm always a paranoid that I'll be driving when 288 00:14:06,880 --> 00:14:09,720 Speaker 6: the trade happens. So I schedule three different coffee shops 289 00:14:09,720 --> 00:14:12,040 Speaker 6: ten minute increment drives from my house on this day. 290 00:14:12,240 --> 00:14:15,320 Speaker 1: Okay, well, hopefully one of them's job house buddy. Okay, 291 00:14:15,400 --> 00:14:18,600 Speaker 1: Tony east joining us, Let's begin with this Okay, so 292 00:14:18,920 --> 00:14:22,080 Speaker 1: there is movement for you today. Do you believe that 293 00:14:22,080 --> 00:14:26,560 Speaker 1: that makes you the same as an Indiana pacer player 294 00:14:26,680 --> 00:14:28,920 Speaker 1: or is every pacer player going to be stationary? 295 00:14:29,720 --> 00:14:32,960 Speaker 7: Yeah? I think the most likely thing they do is use. 296 00:14:32,840 --> 00:14:38,240 Speaker 8: Their open roster spot to snag something, right, you know, 297 00:14:38,280 --> 00:14:40,840 Speaker 8: for example, Jose al Varado and two second round picks 298 00:14:40,880 --> 00:14:44,160 Speaker 8: just Scott Exchange, Like, the Pacers have a little bit 299 00:14:44,480 --> 00:14:47,760 Speaker 8: of financial flexibility that could allow them to do something 300 00:14:47,760 --> 00:14:48,480 Speaker 8: of that nature. 301 00:14:48,560 --> 00:14:48,720 Speaker 3: Right. 302 00:14:48,760 --> 00:14:52,200 Speaker 6: They've done that in many past seasons with this front office, 303 00:14:52,240 --> 00:14:55,200 Speaker 6: and they didn't keep Tony Bradley when his ten day 304 00:14:55,960 --> 00:14:58,800 Speaker 6: finished up last week, so certainly room for them to 305 00:14:58,880 --> 00:15:00,880 Speaker 6: just snag some assets and that way, if they wanted 306 00:15:00,960 --> 00:15:04,280 Speaker 6: to do that, still a couple teams with financial considerations 307 00:15:04,360 --> 00:15:07,160 Speaker 6: or barriers to get under, but that wouldn't require. 308 00:15:06,800 --> 00:15:08,960 Speaker 7: Them moving any of their own players. 309 00:15:08,960 --> 00:15:11,480 Speaker 6: So obviously, if they get their center of the future 310 00:15:11,520 --> 00:15:16,160 Speaker 6: right now, you know, some combination of Matheren Walker, Isaiah Jackson, 311 00:15:16,200 --> 00:15:18,720 Speaker 6: probably Ben Shephard would be in that trade, and some 312 00:15:18,800 --> 00:15:20,960 Speaker 6: of those guys could be on the move independently anyway. 313 00:15:21,040 --> 00:15:22,960 Speaker 7: But you know, I think the most likely thing they. 314 00:15:22,840 --> 00:15:25,840 Speaker 6: Do would actually be a small thing that doesn't move anybody, 315 00:15:25,880 --> 00:15:28,240 Speaker 6: even though all those players that could be moved for 316 00:15:28,360 --> 00:15:30,520 Speaker 6: logical reasons would make sense if they especially if they 317 00:15:30,520 --> 00:15:30,920 Speaker 6: get their. 318 00:15:30,800 --> 00:15:33,720 Speaker 1: Guy right now. Okay, sometimes this happens Tony where a 319 00:15:33,760 --> 00:15:37,480 Speaker 1: guy's name gets mentioned and the fan base or the media, 320 00:15:37,520 --> 00:15:40,920 Speaker 1: whatever it may be, becomes almost obsessed with the fact that, like, 321 00:15:40,960 --> 00:15:42,520 Speaker 1: that's the guy. They got to get that guy. It's 322 00:15:42,520 --> 00:15:44,000 Speaker 1: got to be that guy or no one, you know. 323 00:15:44,560 --> 00:15:48,400 Speaker 1: And zubots In for the Clippers has been that name 324 00:15:48,640 --> 00:15:51,280 Speaker 1: for a while now Visa zubots who's a fabulous player, 325 00:15:51,320 --> 00:15:53,520 Speaker 1: I believe, you know, basically a ten year veteran. The 326 00:15:53,560 --> 00:15:55,760 Speaker 1: other name that has come up a lot lately is 327 00:15:55,840 --> 00:15:58,480 Speaker 1: Daniel Gafford. Now Jake Fisher has reported both of those 328 00:15:58,560 --> 00:16:01,320 Speaker 1: are Indiana targets. I don't think that that's too out 329 00:16:01,320 --> 00:16:05,280 Speaker 1: of bounds to say that. But draft capital, that term 330 00:16:05,320 --> 00:16:09,000 Speaker 1: that JMV. Love's draft capital is rumored to be, also 331 00:16:09,120 --> 00:16:13,040 Speaker 1: what these teams are looking for. Where does Indiana stand 332 00:16:13,240 --> 00:16:16,960 Speaker 1: in terms of what they could make available or what 333 00:16:17,040 --> 00:16:20,000 Speaker 1: they would be willing to make available If those are their. 334 00:16:19,920 --> 00:16:24,320 Speaker 6: Targets, yeah, they have that draft lookally different values both 335 00:16:24,360 --> 00:16:27,160 Speaker 6: in that Zubach is much better than Gafford, and his 336 00:16:27,240 --> 00:16:30,040 Speaker 6: contract is very good. Gafford's bumps up next year, and 337 00:16:30,160 --> 00:16:33,520 Speaker 6: Gafford has all season this year. He hurt his ankle 338 00:16:33,680 --> 00:16:36,720 Speaker 6: in training camp and it has just never gone away. 339 00:16:36,760 --> 00:16:39,560 Speaker 7: He just rolled it again in their most recent game. 340 00:16:39,600 --> 00:16:41,920 Speaker 6: And you always wonder, with something so nagging like that, 341 00:16:41,960 --> 00:16:44,520 Speaker 6: what kind of impacts it could have, even just beyond 342 00:16:44,520 --> 00:16:46,920 Speaker 6: this one season. I'm not suggesting that it's just possible 343 00:16:46,960 --> 00:16:49,920 Speaker 6: that that's a consideration for a Gafford trade. So at 344 00:16:49,960 --> 00:16:52,520 Speaker 6: Gafferd's got He was the starting center for the Mavericks 345 00:16:52,520 --> 00:16:54,640 Speaker 6: team that made the finals two years ago, right Like, 346 00:16:54,760 --> 00:16:57,920 Speaker 6: that's obviously not nothing. He has skills that fit the 347 00:16:57,920 --> 00:17:01,280 Speaker 6: way the Pacers play. But if you know the Mavericks 348 00:17:01,280 --> 00:17:04,240 Speaker 6: are pivoting to a new era, are they really desperate 349 00:17:04,280 --> 00:17:05,919 Speaker 6: for a first rounder? Am I willing to have a 350 00:17:05,920 --> 00:17:07,240 Speaker 6: first rounder if I'm the Pacers? 351 00:17:07,520 --> 00:17:07,959 Speaker 7: I don't know. 352 00:17:08,040 --> 00:17:10,520 Speaker 6: His contract is fine, but all the injury stuff is 353 00:17:10,520 --> 00:17:11,800 Speaker 6: certainly part of that as well. 354 00:17:11,920 --> 00:17:13,400 Speaker 7: Whereas Zubach is very good. 355 00:17:13,200 --> 00:17:16,919 Speaker 6: And his contract is spectacular given his skill ability, that 356 00:17:17,000 --> 00:17:19,680 Speaker 6: I would think that he'd be worth multiple several first 357 00:17:19,760 --> 00:17:21,960 Speaker 6: round picks. The Pacers have all of their firsts now 358 00:17:21,960 --> 00:17:23,840 Speaker 6: obviously this year's pick. 359 00:17:23,880 --> 00:17:26,600 Speaker 7: You'd wonder if that would even be something they'd consider 360 00:17:26,680 --> 00:17:27,640 Speaker 7: or inbounds at all. 361 00:17:27,760 --> 00:17:31,199 Speaker 6: Right, I'm unprotected, certainly not for somebody like Zubach, But 362 00:17:31,520 --> 00:17:33,520 Speaker 6: you know, if they could top six, top eight protect it, 363 00:17:33,560 --> 00:17:35,600 Speaker 6: would they consider it? Would the Clippers even want to 364 00:17:35,640 --> 00:17:37,720 Speaker 6: do that? You know, those are the kind of conversations 365 00:17:37,720 --> 00:17:39,960 Speaker 6: they'd have to have about those guys because a lot 366 00:17:40,000 --> 00:17:41,800 Speaker 6: of the players that would be involved in the salary 367 00:17:41,800 --> 00:17:44,479 Speaker 6: matching for either one would be largely pretty similar. 368 00:17:44,520 --> 00:17:46,440 Speaker 7: But the pick compensation would certainly. 369 00:17:46,240 --> 00:17:49,080 Speaker 6: Or the draft capitalties the right word would certainly be different. 370 00:17:49,119 --> 00:17:51,160 Speaker 6: And that's probably something that had to debate all day. 371 00:17:51,280 --> 00:17:53,399 Speaker 6: Is what's more worth it to them is they figure 372 00:17:53,400 --> 00:17:54,679 Speaker 6: out who their center is going to be, or if 373 00:17:54,680 --> 00:17:56,560 Speaker 6: it's worth doing now if these prices could change in 374 00:17:56,560 --> 00:17:56,919 Speaker 6: the summer. 375 00:17:57,440 --> 00:18:00,560 Speaker 1: Do you believe that Ben Matherin would be a subject 376 00:18:00,560 --> 00:18:03,800 Speaker 1: of trade discussion if he was not on an expiring contract. 377 00:18:04,040 --> 00:18:08,000 Speaker 1: What percent of the assumption Matherin is a piece they 378 00:18:08,000 --> 00:18:11,320 Speaker 1: would dangle is because of the contract, and what percent 379 00:18:11,480 --> 00:18:15,879 Speaker 1: is because his valued skill set may be a skill 380 00:18:15,920 --> 00:18:17,960 Speaker 1: set that isn't totally what Indiana needs. 381 00:18:19,119 --> 00:18:21,160 Speaker 6: Yeah, it's a bit of both, certainly, but I think 382 00:18:21,200 --> 00:18:24,160 Speaker 6: the contract is is a massive, massive part of it, 383 00:18:24,200 --> 00:18:27,480 Speaker 6: both because it's expiring, but also because he's due to 384 00:18:27,560 --> 00:18:29,840 Speaker 6: make a lot more because he's on a rookie contract, 385 00:18:29,880 --> 00:18:32,000 Speaker 6: right Whereas you know, for example, when Buddy yield was 386 00:18:32,080 --> 00:18:34,480 Speaker 6: contract was expiring, they did move him in the end 387 00:18:34,960 --> 00:18:36,280 Speaker 6: because of a you know, he kind of wanted to 388 00:18:36,359 --> 00:18:38,760 Speaker 6: be moved, but he wasn't going to make more money 389 00:18:38,880 --> 00:18:39,840 Speaker 6: on his next contract. 390 00:18:39,880 --> 00:18:40,840 Speaker 7: It's not like their. 391 00:18:41,520 --> 00:18:43,680 Speaker 6: Financial situation would have been blown up if they paid 392 00:18:43,680 --> 00:18:46,040 Speaker 6: Buddy Heeld that semi month of the next season. Matherin 393 00:18:46,119 --> 00:18:48,040 Speaker 6: makes you know, a little over nine million now, and 394 00:18:48,080 --> 00:18:49,359 Speaker 6: you know, most of the lot talks to around the 395 00:18:49,400 --> 00:18:51,920 Speaker 6: league suspect that his next deal would be load of 396 00:18:51,960 --> 00:18:55,000 Speaker 6: mid twenty millions next time you add that to your books. 397 00:18:55,040 --> 00:18:56,679 Speaker 6: And don't get me wrong, like if he's worth that 398 00:18:56,760 --> 00:18:58,560 Speaker 6: much money, that he's worth that much money. It's not 399 00:18:58,600 --> 00:19:00,840 Speaker 6: that it would be a bad contract, but it does, 400 00:19:01,119 --> 00:19:03,600 Speaker 6: you know, to the whole system of the contract that 401 00:19:03,640 --> 00:19:06,280 Speaker 6: you have as a team change things significantly when you 402 00:19:06,320 --> 00:19:09,840 Speaker 6: add that much money to one player, especially when you 403 00:19:09,880 --> 00:19:12,000 Speaker 6: know Memar just got to raise Nie Smith's about to 404 00:19:12,960 --> 00:19:14,639 Speaker 6: you know, in two years, a lot of other guys 405 00:19:14,720 --> 00:19:16,760 Speaker 6: have had their contracts go up or change recently. 406 00:19:17,080 --> 00:19:17,880 Speaker 7: Right, eventually, you. 407 00:19:17,840 --> 00:19:21,120 Speaker 6: Can't afford everybody and their draft pick they're going to get. 408 00:19:21,119 --> 00:19:23,719 Speaker 6: If it's in the top name, you're single digit number, 409 00:19:23,960 --> 00:19:27,359 Speaker 6: that is an relatively expensive player, not a lot, but 410 00:19:27,520 --> 00:19:29,880 Speaker 6: you know for a draft pick, they'll be a eight 411 00:19:29,920 --> 00:19:32,720 Speaker 6: to fifteen million dollar player, and then all of a sudden, 412 00:19:32,720 --> 00:19:34,960 Speaker 6: they're way over a lot of thresholds, tax afer and 413 00:19:35,000 --> 00:19:37,919 Speaker 6: whatever without adding anty center to their team. And so 414 00:19:38,040 --> 00:19:41,240 Speaker 6: I just mostly think that yes, they've they've always been 415 00:19:41,280 --> 00:19:44,000 Speaker 6: cognizant of expiring contracts in this sort of era of 416 00:19:44,000 --> 00:19:46,600 Speaker 6: the front office. I think that's smart to do, especially 417 00:19:46,600 --> 00:19:48,640 Speaker 6: in the season like this where they're not playing very 418 00:19:48,640 --> 00:19:51,040 Speaker 6: well and they're thirteen and thirty eight, but especially so 419 00:19:51,280 --> 00:19:54,359 Speaker 6: when they have to really make sure that basically after 420 00:19:54,400 --> 00:19:58,240 Speaker 6: the coming summer their salary situation is set up, because 421 00:19:58,560 --> 00:20:01,320 Speaker 6: that's basically the team they'll and the salary structure they'll 422 00:20:01,359 --> 00:20:03,399 Speaker 6: have for the next two or three years of the 423 00:20:03,400 --> 00:20:06,119 Speaker 6: Haliburt and Siakamara, if they have a contract that doesn't 424 00:20:06,160 --> 00:20:08,920 Speaker 6: fit or somebody's overpaid for that or only hurts everything 425 00:20:08,960 --> 00:20:12,160 Speaker 6: when as Rick Carlile left to say, they're an ecosystem team, 426 00:20:12,240 --> 00:20:15,440 Speaker 6: so it is important that they consider his his contract 427 00:20:15,440 --> 00:20:17,440 Speaker 6: and salary just as much as his fit on the court. 428 00:20:17,440 --> 00:20:19,639 Speaker 6: And he's obviously does things no one else can do, 429 00:20:19,720 --> 00:20:21,240 Speaker 6: but he you know, the fit questions have been a 430 00:20:21,240 --> 00:20:21,840 Speaker 6: thing for forever. 431 00:20:22,040 --> 00:20:24,560 Speaker 1: Tony East have locked on Pacers. Is the guest Joba House, 432 00:20:24,600 --> 00:20:27,560 Speaker 1: Peeling Port guest line, Tony. I've always been curious of 433 00:20:27,600 --> 00:20:30,879 Speaker 1: this and I wanted you to elaborate on this for listeners. 434 00:20:31,400 --> 00:20:33,639 Speaker 1: If Ben Matheren's contract is up at the end of 435 00:20:33,640 --> 00:20:35,360 Speaker 1: the year, he's at the end of a rookie deal. 436 00:20:35,440 --> 00:20:38,040 Speaker 1: He is going to be more expensive for whoever is 437 00:20:38,040 --> 00:20:40,040 Speaker 1: paying him next year, be that Indiana or whoever it 438 00:20:40,080 --> 00:20:44,359 Speaker 1: may be. Based on that, What would be then the 439 00:20:44,440 --> 00:20:49,120 Speaker 1: motivation for someone else to trade for him if they're 440 00:20:49,160 --> 00:20:51,199 Speaker 1: not certain that they're going to be able to retain 441 00:20:51,320 --> 00:20:53,400 Speaker 1: him beyond this rental. 442 00:20:54,200 --> 00:20:57,400 Speaker 6: Yeah, that is a complicated part of his trade package. 443 00:20:57,400 --> 00:21:00,000 Speaker 6: And you know, I've gone through the exercise several times 444 00:21:00,119 --> 00:21:02,720 Speaker 6: in the last couple of weeks of if players who 445 00:21:02,840 --> 00:21:04,800 Speaker 6: are in his situation so the last year of their 446 00:21:04,880 --> 00:21:08,200 Speaker 6: rookie contract to get traded mid season under the current 447 00:21:08,240 --> 00:21:10,680 Speaker 6: CBA or the rough equivalent of that time frame, they 448 00:21:10,880 --> 00:21:14,240 Speaker 6: almost never and basically do never fetch a first round 449 00:21:14,280 --> 00:21:16,600 Speaker 6: pick and return because of what you just said, right, 450 00:21:16,640 --> 00:21:18,760 Speaker 6: they're about to get paid more, and there's a chance, 451 00:21:18,800 --> 00:21:21,679 Speaker 6: albeit relatively low because of restricted free agency, that they 452 00:21:21,720 --> 00:21:23,480 Speaker 6: would not be on your team at all in three 453 00:21:23,520 --> 00:21:26,520 Speaker 6: months after the trade, and so that drastically impacts what 454 00:21:26,560 --> 00:21:29,080 Speaker 6: their value actually is, even if they are. 455 00:21:29,000 --> 00:21:30,399 Speaker 7: A talented basketball player. 456 00:21:30,760 --> 00:21:33,120 Speaker 6: And so, for example, let Sam Atheren, if you trade 457 00:21:33,119 --> 00:21:35,000 Speaker 6: forms another team, you immediately know you're going to have 458 00:21:35,040 --> 00:21:37,200 Speaker 6: to pay him in the summer, and that someone else 459 00:21:37,200 --> 00:21:39,520 Speaker 6: could try to. Now, the difference with this and other 460 00:21:39,600 --> 00:21:42,560 Speaker 6: expirings is he'd be a restricted free agent or almost 461 00:21:42,600 --> 00:21:44,879 Speaker 6: almost certainly will be, which means the team that trades 462 00:21:44,920 --> 00:21:47,280 Speaker 6: for him would and this is something that's the positive 463 00:21:47,480 --> 00:21:50,520 Speaker 6: for his trade value acquire his restricted rights. So if 464 00:21:50,560 --> 00:21:52,679 Speaker 6: another team signs him, they could still match the offer 465 00:21:53,080 --> 00:21:56,000 Speaker 6: and keep him, so that you're pretty secure you're going. 466 00:21:55,960 --> 00:21:57,639 Speaker 7: To be able to keep the player you trade. 467 00:21:57,359 --> 00:21:59,439 Speaker 6: For because of that, But it's still a risk in 468 00:21:59,520 --> 00:22:01,520 Speaker 6: that you don't know what his next contract's going to 469 00:22:01,520 --> 00:22:04,119 Speaker 6: be or necessarily where it's going to come from and 470 00:22:04,160 --> 00:22:05,320 Speaker 6: that always changes things, and that. 471 00:22:05,240 --> 00:22:06,399 Speaker 7: Even changes things for the Pacers. 472 00:22:06,440 --> 00:22:08,320 Speaker 6: You know, they might have their own internal idea of 473 00:22:08,560 --> 00:22:09,760 Speaker 6: what they think matter is worth it. 474 00:22:09,760 --> 00:22:11,439 Speaker 7: All it takes is one team to blow that up. 475 00:22:11,520 --> 00:22:15,360 Speaker 6: So it's just a complex situation, which is why he's 476 00:22:15,400 --> 00:22:18,000 Speaker 6: been such a prominent subject of all these things. And 477 00:22:18,280 --> 00:22:20,520 Speaker 6: they know his salary now and what that could get 478 00:22:20,520 --> 00:22:21,920 Speaker 6: them in trades. They don't know what it could be 479 00:22:21,960 --> 00:22:24,200 Speaker 6: in the summer, even if people want to shout about 480 00:22:24,200 --> 00:22:26,080 Speaker 6: signing trades all the time. So that's also another part 481 00:22:26,080 --> 00:22:27,600 Speaker 6: of this is it's a known commodity deal. 482 00:22:27,800 --> 00:22:30,760 Speaker 1: Have there been any moves to this point Tony East 483 00:22:30,920 --> 00:22:35,280 Speaker 1: that seemingly would have been one that Indiana could have 484 00:22:35,280 --> 00:22:38,560 Speaker 1: been a contender or a partner for that trade where 485 00:22:38,600 --> 00:22:41,199 Speaker 1: you said, okay, well that guy's moved on elsewhere, so 486 00:22:41,320 --> 00:22:45,359 Speaker 1: Indiana's out of the running for that possibility of a 487 00:22:45,359 --> 00:22:48,359 Speaker 1: player that were looking towards anything that has any implication 488 00:22:48,400 --> 00:22:50,400 Speaker 1: towards Indiana so far at all. 489 00:22:51,080 --> 00:22:53,240 Speaker 6: Yeah, I could drop a few I suppose you know, 490 00:22:53,280 --> 00:22:55,159 Speaker 6: a lot of the little salary things that have happened. 491 00:22:55,440 --> 00:22:57,320 Speaker 6: I always wondered if the Pacers would jump in on those. 492 00:22:57,359 --> 00:22:59,439 Speaker 6: I don't think anyone is dying for me to run 493 00:22:59,480 --> 00:23:02,480 Speaker 6: through the list of but you know, the value for 494 00:23:02,600 --> 00:23:04,920 Speaker 6: about the Pacers space blow the tax has been set 495 00:23:04,920 --> 00:23:07,280 Speaker 6: out like probably one second round pick that could acquire 496 00:23:07,640 --> 00:23:08,639 Speaker 6: to run out that space. 497 00:23:08,880 --> 00:23:11,680 Speaker 7: Dario Sariz trade, h Trid Bogy trade. 498 00:23:11,800 --> 00:23:14,680 Speaker 6: Nikola Vutsevich could in theory be a free agency target. 499 00:23:14,720 --> 00:23:16,640 Speaker 6: He got moved from the Bulls to the Celtics. As 500 00:23:16,640 --> 00:23:18,160 Speaker 6: of now, that trade is not yet official. 501 00:23:19,119 --> 00:23:21,639 Speaker 7: You know, if he's gonna stay with Boston. Is that 502 00:23:21,640 --> 00:23:22,960 Speaker 7: one that's now off the. 503 00:23:22,880 --> 00:23:26,040 Speaker 6: Table as a free agency center option for the Pacers. 504 00:23:26,320 --> 00:23:28,719 Speaker 6: The one that I immediately went WHOA was Jared McCain. 505 00:23:28,800 --> 00:23:31,679 Speaker 6: He got traded from the seventy six ers to the 506 00:23:31,720 --> 00:23:34,639 Speaker 6: Thunder for one first round pick and three second rounders. 507 00:23:34,640 --> 00:23:36,680 Speaker 6: He's young and a good shooter, and he's on a 508 00:23:36,760 --> 00:23:37,520 Speaker 6: cheap ot contract. 509 00:23:37,560 --> 00:23:38,560 Speaker 7: If the Pacers could. 510 00:23:38,400 --> 00:23:41,120 Speaker 6: Have met that value and you know, gotten him from Billy, 511 00:23:41,200 --> 00:23:43,200 Speaker 6: I would have certainly considered that as them. I don't 512 00:23:43,200 --> 00:23:46,159 Speaker 6: think that that's necessarily like the Turs their plans or 513 00:23:46,240 --> 00:23:48,480 Speaker 6: changes things, but it's something that flashed on. 514 00:23:48,400 --> 00:23:49,040 Speaker 7: My radar ASO. 515 00:23:49,440 --> 00:23:51,760 Speaker 6: I wonder if they were considering her in on that 516 00:23:51,880 --> 00:23:54,480 Speaker 6: given you know that McCain was a tax stump move 517 00:23:54,760 --> 00:23:56,399 Speaker 6: among many things by the Sixers. 518 00:23:56,840 --> 00:23:58,440 Speaker 7: But in terms of like direct. 519 00:23:58,160 --> 00:24:01,240 Speaker 6: Hit impacts of players they've connected to, I believe the 520 00:24:01,280 --> 00:24:04,520 Speaker 6: only reported connection to the Pacers player that's been traded 521 00:24:04,600 --> 00:24:05,840 Speaker 6: or actually two now are. 522 00:24:05,760 --> 00:24:07,359 Speaker 7: Hose Al Barado and Kean Ellis. 523 00:24:07,359 --> 00:24:09,840 Speaker 6: And I don't think they're like beating themselves up that 524 00:24:09,880 --> 00:24:11,960 Speaker 6: they didn't get a backup point guard right now. They 525 00:24:11,960 --> 00:24:14,080 Speaker 6: could do that at a different time or a backup guard, 526 00:24:14,080 --> 00:24:15,280 Speaker 6: whatever you want to call those guys. 527 00:24:15,680 --> 00:24:17,320 Speaker 7: So a lot of the reported. 528 00:24:16,920 --> 00:24:20,360 Speaker 6: Connections are still anchored to where they were, but there 529 00:24:20,400 --> 00:24:22,120 Speaker 6: have been some things that I've been curious about, either 530 00:24:22,119 --> 00:24:23,640 Speaker 6: what it means for the Pacers or if they could 531 00:24:23,680 --> 00:24:25,040 Speaker 6: have done something similar to themselves. 532 00:24:25,160 --> 00:24:28,560 Speaker 2: What's more surprising janis Onto Takupo doesn't seem like he's 533 00:24:28,560 --> 00:24:31,440 Speaker 2: getting traded, or job Morant. 534 00:24:33,240 --> 00:24:36,240 Speaker 6: Yanni's not getting traded is a zero shock to me. 535 00:24:37,440 --> 00:24:38,720 Speaker 7: I mean just I think. 536 00:24:38,560 --> 00:24:39,840 Speaker 6: If you have the bucks, it's smart to know it's 537 00:24:39,840 --> 00:24:41,919 Speaker 6: available to you, but it makes way more sense for 538 00:24:41,960 --> 00:24:43,520 Speaker 6: them to do that in the summer if you're gonna 539 00:24:43,560 --> 00:24:44,040 Speaker 6: do it at all. 540 00:24:44,640 --> 00:24:47,040 Speaker 7: I think the Grizzly at this point. What does John 541 00:24:47,119 --> 00:24:47,520 Speaker 7: do for them? 542 00:24:47,560 --> 00:24:47,679 Speaker 9: Right? 543 00:24:47,720 --> 00:24:49,359 Speaker 7: They pull up their whole team. They clearly want to 544 00:24:49,400 --> 00:24:49,680 Speaker 7: be bad. 545 00:24:49,680 --> 00:24:52,120 Speaker 6: They have a gazillion first round picks, a nice young 546 00:24:52,160 --> 00:24:55,280 Speaker 6: corp with Cedric Coward and Zach Edy from Purdue. 547 00:24:55,760 --> 00:24:57,640 Speaker 7: Just get just hand them to someone else. If someone 548 00:24:57,640 --> 00:24:59,960 Speaker 7: gives you anything of note for John Morant, take it done, 549 00:25:00,080 --> 00:25:02,239 Speaker 7: call it a day. So I'm surprised he hasn't been 550 00:25:02,280 --> 00:25:05,240 Speaker 7: moved in much more surprised than he's still with Memphis. 551 00:25:05,240 --> 00:25:06,879 Speaker 7: But also I don't know how many teams that really 552 00:25:06,920 --> 00:25:08,280 Speaker 7: want him, so I'll be very curious for that one 553 00:25:08,320 --> 00:25:09,919 Speaker 7: shakes out, all right, Tony. 554 00:25:10,160 --> 00:25:14,399 Speaker 1: Lastly, it is twelve forty six on this the NBA 555 00:25:14,480 --> 00:25:18,879 Speaker 1: trade deadline. Do you believe that we are entering the 556 00:25:18,920 --> 00:25:22,919 Speaker 1: final two hours and fourteen minutes of the tenure of 557 00:25:23,000 --> 00:25:24,199 Speaker 1: Ben Matheren is a pacer. 558 00:25:25,440 --> 00:25:28,800 Speaker 6: It's I think it's close to right down the middle 559 00:25:28,800 --> 00:25:31,480 Speaker 6: in terms of the odds there. So for sake of 560 00:25:31,520 --> 00:25:33,880 Speaker 6: making a prediction, I'll say yes, but I think it could. 561 00:25:33,960 --> 00:25:35,240 Speaker 7: It really could go either way. 562 00:25:35,240 --> 00:25:38,600 Speaker 1: Okay, and we shall see. You know, I guess worst case, 563 00:25:38,640 --> 00:25:41,639 Speaker 1: Tony would be if they don't move him, then you 564 00:25:41,760 --> 00:25:43,840 Speaker 1: wait to see once you sign him if you can 565 00:25:43,840 --> 00:25:46,600 Speaker 1: get a sign in trade, et cetera, and go back 566 00:25:46,640 --> 00:25:49,240 Speaker 1: to the drawing board at the end of the season. 567 00:25:49,440 --> 00:25:52,520 Speaker 1: Does not seem to me to be Ben mathering the 568 00:25:52,600 --> 00:25:56,120 Speaker 1: kind of guy that you know, Miles Turner. I think 569 00:25:56,119 --> 00:25:59,120 Speaker 1: we know that the constant trade stuff eventually took its 570 00:25:59,119 --> 00:26:01,800 Speaker 1: toll on Miles turn This is the first go round 571 00:26:01,800 --> 00:26:03,879 Speaker 1: of this really forbid Matherin, and if it does not 572 00:26:04,080 --> 00:26:06,680 Speaker 1: come to where he has moved, we'll see where that 573 00:26:06,760 --> 00:26:09,480 Speaker 1: impacts him. But I don't think he's going to be 574 00:26:10,880 --> 00:26:13,240 Speaker 1: a disruptor kind of guy. But you know, I could 575 00:26:13,240 --> 00:26:15,440 Speaker 1: be wrong. That remains to be seen. 576 00:26:16,480 --> 00:26:18,040 Speaker 6: The tricky part of all of this is all these 577 00:26:18,040 --> 00:26:20,439 Speaker 6: discussions about contract and fit and all this stuff is 578 00:26:20,480 --> 00:26:23,280 Speaker 6: just like Ben Matherick's good. Like if you don't find 579 00:26:23,320 --> 00:26:25,240 Speaker 6: the right trade and you have to resign him and 580 00:26:25,320 --> 00:26:28,480 Speaker 6: keep him in the summer, like that's the worst case scenario, 581 00:26:28,520 --> 00:26:30,879 Speaker 6: Like that's not even bad, right, So there's no reason 582 00:26:30,920 --> 00:26:32,960 Speaker 6: for them to rush or do something stupid unless they 583 00:26:33,280 --> 00:26:34,080 Speaker 6: feel like they need to. 584 00:26:34,240 --> 00:26:36,760 Speaker 7: So that's why it's close to fifty to fifty to me. 585 00:26:36,880 --> 00:26:39,159 Speaker 6: But they always have been ahead of some of this 586 00:26:39,240 --> 00:26:42,240 Speaker 6: inspiring stuff and their financial situation certainly requires it, so we. 587 00:26:42,240 --> 00:26:42,600 Speaker 7: Will see it. 588 00:26:42,600 --> 00:26:44,000 Speaker 6: But I agree with you that I don't think he'd 589 00:26:44,040 --> 00:26:45,480 Speaker 6: be a big shake up thing either way. 590 00:26:45,920 --> 00:26:47,680 Speaker 1: By the way, I didn't mean to say that you're 591 00:26:47,720 --> 00:26:50,760 Speaker 1: going nowhere. Your career is on a meteoric rise. 592 00:26:50,960 --> 00:26:53,600 Speaker 7: I am now in park, Jake, So I am going. 593 00:26:53,800 --> 00:26:56,159 Speaker 1: You got what I was trying to say. There it 594 00:26:56,720 --> 00:26:58,800 Speaker 1: It just came out the wrong way, all right, Tony 595 00:26:58,840 --> 00:27:01,720 Speaker 1: appreciate it as always. Yeah, thanks for having guys, ahright, 596 00:27:01,760 --> 00:27:05,720 Speaker 1: Tony East joining us on the program. Super Bowl sixty 597 00:27:05,880 --> 00:27:09,480 Speaker 1: is set. And by the way, Eddie, I don't know 598 00:27:09,480 --> 00:27:11,600 Speaker 1: if you know this or not, but Levi's Is it 599 00:27:11,600 --> 00:27:16,119 Speaker 1: still Levis Stadium? Yes? Is every section five oh one? 600 00:27:16,560 --> 00:27:21,680 Speaker 1: Why would that be? That stadium is like an hour 601 00:27:21,760 --> 00:27:23,560 Speaker 1: south of San Francisco. Like I see people that are like, 602 00:27:23,560 --> 00:27:25,640 Speaker 1: I'm going to San Francisco for the Super Bowl. I'm like, well, 603 00:27:25,960 --> 00:27:28,640 Speaker 1: you're gonna pay a lot for an uber or rent 604 00:27:28,680 --> 00:27:31,400 Speaker 1: a car because it's actually down closer like Santa Clara, 605 00:27:31,440 --> 00:27:33,960 Speaker 1: San Jose area. All of It's an awesome area, no 606 00:27:34,080 --> 00:27:38,640 Speaker 1: question about it. Seahawks and the New England Patriots joining 607 00:27:38,680 --> 00:27:40,480 Speaker 1: us now in the Java House Pielaport guest line. He 608 00:27:40,560 --> 00:27:44,000 Speaker 1: is the radio voice of the Indianapolis Colts, Matt Taylor, 609 00:27:44,040 --> 00:27:46,600 Speaker 1: who will be doing a little trivia at Aleb Porium. 610 00:27:46,600 --> 00:27:49,720 Speaker 1: More on that coming up, but Matt, I'll begin with 611 00:27:49,760 --> 00:27:53,000 Speaker 1: this your thoughts on the Super Bowl matchup and also 612 00:27:53,200 --> 00:27:54,520 Speaker 1: basically how you break it down. 613 00:27:55,760 --> 00:27:57,879 Speaker 5: Yeah, I think it's really fun. I think it's interesting. 614 00:27:57,960 --> 00:27:58,119 Speaker 1: You know. 615 00:27:58,160 --> 00:28:00,239 Speaker 9: I don't think it's getting, you know, a time the 616 00:28:00,359 --> 00:28:04,960 Speaker 9: national hype just because it's you know, two non sexy teams, 617 00:28:04,960 --> 00:28:08,760 Speaker 9: if you will, on complete opposite sides of the of 618 00:28:08,800 --> 00:28:12,159 Speaker 9: the country in different coasts. But I think it's like 619 00:28:12,200 --> 00:28:16,680 Speaker 9: the first Super Bowl since nineteen seventy where both teams 620 00:28:16,880 --> 00:28:20,040 Speaker 9: have offensive and defenses that are ranked in the top 621 00:28:20,240 --> 00:28:24,280 Speaker 9: four in scoring both on offense and defense, which is 622 00:28:24,320 --> 00:28:28,639 Speaker 9: pretty incredible. And I also read where New England played. 623 00:28:29,080 --> 00:28:30,800 Speaker 9: I mean, credit to them, right, they're in the Super 624 00:28:30,840 --> 00:28:33,400 Speaker 9: Bowl and a huge turnaround. They were four and thirteen 625 00:28:33,480 --> 00:28:36,200 Speaker 9: last year and this year they were fourteen and three 626 00:28:36,240 --> 00:28:40,680 Speaker 9: I think in the regular season, but biggest turnaround in 627 00:28:40,840 --> 00:28:43,719 Speaker 9: win total from one year to the next in the 628 00:28:43,760 --> 00:28:47,320 Speaker 9: Super Bowl era. And also they played the easiest schedule 629 00:28:47,960 --> 00:28:52,840 Speaker 9: based on opponents winning percentage in the last fifty years, right, 630 00:28:52,840 --> 00:28:55,080 Speaker 9: I mean, the AFC East is kind of down this year, 631 00:28:55,080 --> 00:28:57,800 Speaker 9: and then everybody else they played was you know, certainly 632 00:28:57,880 --> 00:29:00,760 Speaker 9: not world beaters, and Drake made tovantage of that and 633 00:29:00,840 --> 00:29:04,240 Speaker 9: new culture with Mike Vrabel. Then on the other you know, 634 00:29:04,320 --> 00:29:08,720 Speaker 9: end of the spectrum with Seattle, great defense and great 635 00:29:08,800 --> 00:29:12,200 Speaker 9: quarterback resurgence, and you know, continue to stack year after 636 00:29:12,320 --> 00:29:17,200 Speaker 9: year with you know, with with with obviously what you 637 00:29:17,240 --> 00:29:20,000 Speaker 9: know Seattle is doing at the quarterback position. You know, 638 00:29:20,040 --> 00:29:23,440 Speaker 9: Sam Darnold's had two back to back good seasons with 639 00:29:23,560 --> 00:29:26,480 Speaker 9: different teams, and you know, now he's on his fifth 640 00:29:26,560 --> 00:29:29,240 Speaker 9: year and trying to direct them to the Super Bowl title. 641 00:29:29,320 --> 00:29:31,880 Speaker 9: So I think there's plenty of storylines, you know, within 642 00:29:32,000 --> 00:29:34,640 Speaker 9: the minutia of things, even though nationally it's probably not 643 00:29:34,760 --> 00:29:36,720 Speaker 9: moving the needle like some of the other matchups in 644 00:29:36,760 --> 00:29:39,240 Speaker 9: the playoffs in terms of what it could offered. 645 00:29:39,800 --> 00:29:42,440 Speaker 1: It is interesting, mat because and I wondered if it 646 00:29:42,480 --> 00:29:46,120 Speaker 1: was just me, you know, in years past, and I 647 00:29:46,200 --> 00:29:48,800 Speaker 1: know the NFL is I mean, you know, you work 648 00:29:48,840 --> 00:29:52,080 Speaker 1: in it. The NFL in terms of the American sports 649 00:29:52,080 --> 00:29:54,560 Speaker 1: culture is the top dog. I mean, there's no denying that. 650 00:29:55,320 --> 00:29:59,680 Speaker 1: But in years past, you know, all the anticipation of 651 00:29:59,720 --> 00:30:02,680 Speaker 1: this media day and the wacky hi jinks and the 652 00:30:02,760 --> 00:30:05,560 Speaker 1: videos of teams coming off the plane and they've arrived 653 00:30:05,600 --> 00:30:08,640 Speaker 1: and they're here and and just you know, all the 654 00:30:08,680 --> 00:30:11,160 Speaker 1: build up. It just seems like I haven't heard as 655 00:30:11,200 --> 00:30:13,960 Speaker 1: much of it this year, am I Just like, is 656 00:30:14,000 --> 00:30:16,560 Speaker 1: my head in the sand? Or does there seem to 657 00:30:16,560 --> 00:30:18,760 Speaker 1: be to your point? And I think a big part 658 00:30:18,760 --> 00:30:20,960 Speaker 1: of it maybe is that. If that's the reason, but 659 00:30:21,040 --> 00:30:24,640 Speaker 1: at my off basin saying that the buzz feels less. 660 00:30:25,360 --> 00:30:27,360 Speaker 5: Yeah, I don't know. Maybe it's just us. I mean, 661 00:30:27,840 --> 00:30:28,760 Speaker 5: we've got to foot. 662 00:30:28,600 --> 00:30:31,680 Speaker 9: Of snow on the ground, and it's you know, we're 663 00:30:31,800 --> 00:30:34,480 Speaker 9: the gold rooms of winter.

But politically 667 00:30:40,480 --> 00:30:43,120 Speaker 9: there's a lot going on right now. Maybe that's diverting 668 00:30:43,560 --> 00:30:46,920 Speaker 9: people's attention. Maybe the fact that the game's on the 669 00:30:46,960 --> 00:30:48,000 Speaker 9: West coast and some. 670 00:30:47,920 --> 00:30:50,000 Speaker 1: Of the Yeah, that's got to be part of it too, right. 671 00:30:50,080 --> 00:30:52,680 Speaker 9: Yeah, you're like three hours behind radio Row and some 672 00:30:52,720 --> 00:30:55,400 Speaker 9: of the stuff coming out of you know, the ground 673 00:30:55,560 --> 00:31:01,120 Speaker 9: zero epicenter of the NFL news circuit and things like that.

You can look them 821 00:37:40,360 --> 00:37:43,279 Speaker 1: up by college, by team of service, et cetera. Yep, 822 00:37:44,040 --> 00:37:46,399 Speaker 1: in the Pro Football Hall of Fame. Who is the 823 00:37:46,440 --> 00:37:51,560 Speaker 1: only inductee to have Indianapolis, Indiana listed as their birthplace? 824 00:37:53,640 --> 00:37:56,759 Speaker 1: There is no I had no idea of this. This 825 00:37:56,800 --> 00:38:00,279 Speaker 1: would be like the Whopper, Whopper, Whopper final question. I 826 00:38:00,360 --> 00:38:02,520 Speaker 1: had no idea of this. I only know it because 827 00:38:02,560 --> 00:38:04,319 Speaker 1: I looked it up. And when I looked it up, 828 00:38:04,360 --> 00:38:08,799 Speaker 1: I thought, this is the ultimate question, because literally, this 829 00:38:08,840 --> 00:38:11,560 Speaker 1: guy's family and the doctor that delivered him are probably 830 00:38:11,640 --> 00:38:14,440 Speaker 1: the only people that know he was born in Indianapolis, India. 831 00:38:14,480 --> 00:38:16,560 Speaker 1: He has no connection to the state whatsoever. 832 00:38:17,160 --> 00:38:18,400 Speaker 5: So he didn't play for the Colds. 833 00:38:18,640 --> 00:38:23,719 Speaker 1: No, literally no, And he's kind of a I hate 834 00:38:23,719 --> 00:38:26,960 Speaker 1: to say, an obscure hall of Famer. That sounds ridiculous, 835 00:38:26,960 --> 00:38:28,839 Speaker 1: but in terms of Hall of famers, he's a little 836 00:38:28,840 --> 00:38:29,400 Speaker 1: bit obscure. 837 00:38:30,560 --> 00:38:31,520 Speaker 5: Okay, Well, then I don't know. 838 00:38:31,560 --> 00:38:33,120 Speaker 9: I was going to say, like Bob Greasy, but I 839 00:38:33,160 --> 00:38:34,840 Speaker 9: don't know where Bob Greasey's from. 840 00:38:35,360 --> 00:38:37,520 Speaker 1: He was from Evansville. I don't know where he was born, right, 841 00:38:37,800 --> 00:38:40,360 Speaker 1: Chris Dolman of the Minnesota Vikings. 842 00:38:40,800 --> 00:38:44,920 Speaker 9: Wow, yeah, that is that is Wopper City. So I 843 00:38:44,960 --> 00:38:47,239 Speaker 9: mean that would be a good question. So another thing 844 00:38:47,239 --> 00:38:49,240 Speaker 9: that I have, So as I said, I have seven 845 00:38:49,800 --> 00:38:52,440 Speaker 9: seven rounds, six questions per round, and then I have 846 00:38:53,000 --> 00:38:55,720 Speaker 9: at the end of the game like a final jeopardy question. 847 00:38:56,160 --> 00:38:57,960 Speaker 9: And those are kind of fun where I have like 848 00:38:58,080 --> 00:39:00,920 Speaker 9: put these things in order, or like put them from 849 00:39:00,920 --> 00:39:03,319 Speaker 9: the high the lowest, you know, like where people get 850 00:39:03,320 --> 00:39:06,239 Speaker 9: to wager the amount of points that they've accrued to 851 00:39:06,280 --> 00:39:09,320 Speaker 9: the first seven rounds and then they get the bonus points. 852 00:39:09,320 --> 00:39:12,160 Speaker 9: The final jeopardy style like where you if you win 853 00:39:12,200 --> 00:39:13,799 Speaker 9: it or if you get a right, you get that 854 00:39:13,880 --> 00:39:16,360 Speaker 9: many extra points and then you get deduction if you 855 00:39:16,840 --> 00:39:19,080 Speaker 9: if you lose it. That's that's a really good one. 856 00:39:19,120 --> 00:39:20,480 Speaker 9: As far as like a final. 857 00:39:20,239 --> 00:39:23,799 Speaker 1: Jeopardy question, Matt, here's a question for you. You know, 858 00:39:24,080 --> 00:39:26,879 Speaker 1: you being an outgoing guy, which would you say has 859 00:39:26,960 --> 00:39:30,160 Speaker 1: been the most fun aspect of putting this together? Matt Taylor, 860 00:39:30,160 --> 00:39:32,040 Speaker 1: the voice of the Colts. My guest Java House Peeling 861 00:39:32,080 --> 00:39:34,560 Speaker 1: Port guest line. Would it be a coming up with 862 00:39:34,600 --> 00:39:41,280 Speaker 1: the questions?
