1 00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:02,840 Speaker 1: TV and chef, so Visa Zubach is going to the 2 00:00:02,840 --> 00:00:06,360 Speaker 1: Indiana Pacers. I'm told a Visa Zubach and Kobe Brown, 3 00:00:06,720 --> 00:00:11,399 Speaker 1: Ben Matheren and Isaiah Jackson two first round draft picks 4 00:00:11,400 --> 00:00:14,000 Speaker 1: from the Pacers and one second round pick. 5 00:00:14,520 --> 00:00:16,239 Speaker 2: One of the first is in twenty twenty nine. 6 00:00:16,280 --> 00:00:19,960 Speaker 1: It's unprotected from the Pacers, and then there's another one 7 00:00:20,280 --> 00:00:23,759 Speaker 1: from this year that does have protections. The Pacers wanted 8 00:00:23,800 --> 00:00:26,760 Speaker 1: a center after losing Miles Turner in pre agency last 9 00:00:26,760 --> 00:00:29,200 Speaker 1: I'll season, that's what this has been about. They scoured 10 00:00:29,200 --> 00:00:32,800 Speaker 1: the market searching for centers, whether it was Daniel Gafford, 11 00:00:33,040 --> 00:00:36,080 Speaker 1: a Visa Zubach, Jeeves Missy. There was a laundry list 12 00:00:36,280 --> 00:00:38,840 Speaker 1: of big men that they were looking into and trying 13 00:00:38,880 --> 00:00:41,560 Speaker 1: to find someone that Tyres Haliburton was going to be 14 00:00:41,600 --> 00:00:44,239 Speaker 1: excited about, someone that they could pair with for the 15 00:00:44,280 --> 00:00:47,040 Speaker 1: next few years. Once Tyres Haliburton is back next season 16 00:00:47,360 --> 00:00:50,680 Speaker 1: from his torn achilles But this Tyres Haliburton a Visa 17 00:00:50,760 --> 00:00:54,040 Speaker 1: Zubach pairing is something the Pacers are very excited about. 18 00:00:54,240 --> 00:00:57,520 Speaker 3: It is now time to meet the twenty twenty six 19 00:00:57,640 --> 00:01:00,440 Speaker 3: class of the Pro Football Hall of Fame. 20 00:01:02,040 --> 00:01:05,720 Speaker 4: No one has scored more points or kicked more field goals. 21 00:01:06,000 --> 00:01:09,840 Speaker 4: Twenty four seasons, four rings, one at my expense and 22 00:01:09,959 --> 00:01:13,320 Speaker 4: now run bust in the halls of Kim Adam Vinitari. 23 00:01:19,400 --> 00:01:21,280 Speaker 5: I don't know if anything happened over the week, over 24 00:01:21,319 --> 00:01:24,160 Speaker 5: the last twenty four hours. Good morning, James Boyd, Good 25 00:01:24,160 --> 00:01:27,240 Speaker 5: morning Kevin Bowen. Mark dyked a nice job as always. 26 00:01:27,880 --> 00:01:30,240 Speaker 5: When last we left you, we had a lingering question, 27 00:01:30,400 --> 00:01:32,640 Speaker 5: would the Pacers still be intact as we saw them 28 00:01:32,760 --> 00:01:36,360 Speaker 5: yesterday as opposed to when we see them tonight against 29 00:01:36,360 --> 00:01:40,360 Speaker 5: some Milwaukee Bucks and Kevin Bowen we have our answer emphatically. 30 00:01:40,840 --> 00:01:46,120 Speaker 5: Benedict Matherin is gone and Evan Zubik is here, and 31 00:01:46,160 --> 00:01:47,320 Speaker 5: that's where we're at. 32 00:01:47,400 --> 00:01:48,480 Speaker 2: So you got Zubacs. 33 00:01:48,560 --> 00:01:51,840 Speaker 5: Now you've got a center, and now you've got something 34 00:01:51,840 --> 00:01:55,600 Speaker 5: to continue building on when Tyrese Haliburton gets back. All 35 00:01:55,640 --> 00:01:58,680 Speaker 5: in all, now that you've waited almost I don't know, 36 00:01:58,760 --> 00:02:01,600 Speaker 5: sixteen hours to talk about it, what are your thoughts? Uh? 37 00:02:02,000 --> 00:02:04,200 Speaker 6: Boy? Quite the Friday show, to say the least, they're 38 00:02:04,200 --> 00:02:07,840 Speaker 6: probably the busiest show we've had in quite some time. Yeah, 39 00:02:07,880 --> 00:02:12,120 Speaker 6: A Viza zubats, I think the pronunciation is right on 40 00:02:12,200 --> 00:02:16,359 Speaker 6: that you are correct sir, Lord knows I've butchered that before. 41 00:02:17,200 --> 00:02:20,240 Speaker 6: My thoughts are I get it, don't love losing, Ben 42 00:02:20,280 --> 00:02:22,280 Speaker 6: mc matheren. I get it. I get it, I get it. 43 00:02:22,280 --> 00:02:28,400 Speaker 6: I get it. And oh boy, Mother's Day. We warned 44 00:02:28,400 --> 00:02:30,840 Speaker 6: you a few weeks ago when the lottery date was announced. 45 00:02:31,120 --> 00:02:34,320 Speaker 6: Hug your mom before the sun goes down on Mother's Day, folks, 46 00:02:34,360 --> 00:02:38,720 Speaker 6: because you need to have what is it the rabbit's foot. 47 00:02:39,000 --> 00:02:42,119 Speaker 6: You need to have whatever you believe in from superstition, 48 00:02:42,200 --> 00:02:45,000 Speaker 6: because you need ping pong balls bouncing your way. The 49 00:02:45,080 --> 00:02:47,920 Speaker 6: trade looks a lot different if insert a name here, 50 00:02:48,160 --> 00:02:53,200 Speaker 6: if Darren Peterson is involved in coming an Indiana pacer, 51 00:02:53,280 --> 00:02:55,000 Speaker 6: or if he's not. And again, if that pick falls 52 00:02:55,040 --> 00:02:58,239 Speaker 6: five through nine, then it will be here with the pacers, 53 00:02:59,120 --> 00:03:01,120 Speaker 6: or he's able to go with the clippers. If it's 54 00:03:01,120 --> 00:03:03,720 Speaker 6: one through four or ten through thirteen in the lottery, 55 00:03:04,160 --> 00:03:08,919 Speaker 6: then it will go to the pacers. So very very 56 00:03:09,240 --> 00:03:11,480 Speaker 6: up in the air from that risk element to it, 57 00:03:11,919 --> 00:03:14,600 Speaker 6: and I can hear the debate. I've heard people say, hey, 58 00:03:14,800 --> 00:03:19,160 Speaker 6: pacers now should go for wins, which I pause a 59 00:03:19,200 --> 00:03:21,360 Speaker 6: little bit at it. And then of course the other 60 00:03:21,400 --> 00:03:23,520 Speaker 6: side of it is full on Tank and get used 61 00:03:23,560 --> 00:03:24,920 Speaker 6: to Michael Potter and Ethan Thompson. 62 00:03:26,400 --> 00:03:30,720 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think honestly, like you, I'm okay with it. 63 00:03:31,040 --> 00:03:34,520 Speaker 5: I'm not super excited to lose Benedict Matherin to your point, 64 00:03:34,560 --> 00:03:35,800 Speaker 5: I get it, I'll quote you. 65 00:03:35,920 --> 00:03:36,480 Speaker 2: I get it. 66 00:03:36,840 --> 00:03:40,200 Speaker 5: Not mad at the trade, I understand that. But James, 67 00:03:40,640 --> 00:03:43,800 Speaker 5: if they screw up getting one of the top four selections, 68 00:03:44,400 --> 00:03:46,280 Speaker 5: it might not be anything that they do, could be 69 00:03:46,360 --> 00:03:48,120 Speaker 5: that Fate doesn't want them. 70 00:03:48,000 --> 00:03:48,440 Speaker 2: To have that. 71 00:03:49,400 --> 00:03:51,680 Speaker 5: But to me, that's what would make this deal worth 72 00:03:51,720 --> 00:03:54,200 Speaker 5: it in the end. Otherwise you're just moving pieces around. 73 00:03:54,640 --> 00:03:55,800 Speaker 5: That's how I feel about this. 74 00:03:56,720 --> 00:03:58,840 Speaker 7: We can go back to Mark's question from yesterday, right, 75 00:03:58,880 --> 00:04:00,200 Speaker 7: what was one of the questions you had? And I 76 00:04:00,200 --> 00:04:03,119 Speaker 7: gotta know, Mark, do we want to see the ping 77 00:04:03,200 --> 00:04:04,880 Speaker 7: pong balls or what was the other option? 78 00:04:04,920 --> 00:04:06,840 Speaker 8: I want to win a punk draft lottery or the 79 00:04:06,880 --> 00:04:08,840 Speaker 8: Hall of Fame debate got to see the draft lottery. 80 00:04:08,880 --> 00:04:11,360 Speaker 7: Now we got to make sure that everything's in order, 81 00:04:11,520 --> 00:04:15,640 Speaker 7: everything is above board. It'll be very exciting. Honestly, a 82 00:04:15,680 --> 00:04:19,280 Speaker 7: lot more stakes involved than before, and I get it. 83 00:04:19,360 --> 00:04:21,520 Speaker 7: I think what it comes down to for me, guys, 84 00:04:22,760 --> 00:04:28,120 Speaker 7: and the way I interpret this trade is that the 85 00:04:28,160 --> 00:04:31,320 Speaker 7: Pacers thought, Okay, if we don't get one of the 86 00:04:31,320 --> 00:04:34,640 Speaker 7: top four players in this draft, the top four being 87 00:04:35,000 --> 00:04:40,040 Speaker 7: Darren Peterson from Kansas, AJ, Debanza from BYU, Caleb Wilson 88 00:04:40,080 --> 00:04:44,760 Speaker 7: from North Carolina, and Cameron Boozer from Duke, if it 89 00:04:44,760 --> 00:04:48,479 Speaker 7: isn't one of those four players, then we rather have 90 00:04:48,920 --> 00:04:55,279 Speaker 7: Iviza Zubots over the five through nine pick, Like, is 91 00:04:55,279 --> 00:04:57,880 Speaker 7: that a better player than who would land there? That's 92 00:04:57,920 --> 00:04:59,600 Speaker 7: That's kind of how I look at the gamble here, 93 00:05:00,279 --> 00:05:03,360 Speaker 7: and to me, when you look at it from that perspective, 94 00:05:04,560 --> 00:05:08,640 Speaker 7: I'm probably in the Pacers camp from what you were 95 00:05:08,640 --> 00:05:12,200 Speaker 7: able to do. And the debate the BA yesterday was 96 00:05:13,120 --> 00:05:15,159 Speaker 7: whether or not you make this move for a center, 97 00:05:15,760 --> 00:05:17,360 Speaker 7: and I think this is probably the only center I 98 00:05:17,360 --> 00:05:20,440 Speaker 7: would have done it for with how the NBA's kind 99 00:05:20,480 --> 00:05:22,960 Speaker 7: of structure right now. He's on a very team friendly deal, 100 00:05:23,279 --> 00:05:26,080 Speaker 7: He's only twenty eight years old, he's durable, he never 101 00:05:26,120 --> 00:05:28,440 Speaker 7: missed his games unless he has recently had a child. 102 00:05:29,000 --> 00:05:31,919 Speaker 7: And he also was on the All Defensive team. Not 103 00:05:31,960 --> 00:05:34,919 Speaker 7: a great rim protector, but still a great defender nonetheless, 104 00:05:34,960 --> 00:05:38,239 Speaker 7: So yeah, quite the gamble. But I give the Paters 105 00:05:38,240 --> 00:05:41,680 Speaker 7: some credit here. You all for being creative and how 106 00:05:41,760 --> 00:05:43,400 Speaker 7: they acquired zubots. 107 00:05:44,520 --> 00:05:47,200 Speaker 5: If you want to know how excited the Pacers were 108 00:05:47,240 --> 00:05:50,760 Speaker 5: for this, how about Rick Carlisle calling up JMV just 109 00:05:50,760 --> 00:05:51,880 Speaker 5: to talk about it yesterday. 110 00:05:52,200 --> 00:05:55,120 Speaker 6: Yeah. I was actually over at the Pacers practice yesterday 111 00:05:55,120 --> 00:05:57,440 Speaker 6: getting ready to go in practice. Will started about two o'clock, 112 00:05:57,920 --> 00:06:01,719 Speaker 6: and all of a sudden, you know, ward breaks, and 113 00:06:01,839 --> 00:06:05,000 Speaker 6: I was curious. You know, officially the trade deadline was 114 00:06:05,040 --> 00:06:07,520 Speaker 6: three o'clock, and I believe the Pacers didn't officially announce 115 00:06:07,520 --> 00:06:09,680 Speaker 6: the trade till like nine or ten last night, So 116 00:06:09,760 --> 00:06:13,279 Speaker 6: I was curious how much Rick would talk about the trade, 117 00:06:13,880 --> 00:06:17,640 Speaker 6: and he definitely did not hold back and chatting about 118 00:06:17,680 --> 00:06:20,440 Speaker 6: the trade. It doesn't appear act Tony East, you know, 119 00:06:20,480 --> 00:06:22,159 Speaker 6: the guys that cover the team on a daily basis, 120 00:06:22,160 --> 00:06:23,480 Speaker 6: they were over there. I just kind of mingled to 121 00:06:23,560 --> 00:06:25,000 Speaker 6: the background. And then, Yeah, all of a sudden in 122 00:06:25,000 --> 00:06:27,320 Speaker 6: my car driving home and I hear Rick Carlisle dial 123 00:06:27,400 --> 00:06:30,800 Speaker 6: up John like he's you know whatever, Jlaw after an 124 00:06:30,800 --> 00:06:33,200 Speaker 6: EU game or something like that. So great to hear 125 00:06:33,279 --> 00:06:35,760 Speaker 6: Rick's voice in the afternoon show, I did, what was 126 00:06:35,800 --> 00:06:37,680 Speaker 6: he cheating on us? Mark Dyton? Is that what you 127 00:06:37,880 --> 00:06:40,560 Speaker 6: texted us it felt like a scorn lover. Yeah. I 128 00:06:40,560 --> 00:06:42,600 Speaker 6: don't know if I'm in a position to comment on that, 129 00:06:42,800 --> 00:06:48,560 Speaker 6: but uh, you know so much of it, James. You 130 00:06:48,600 --> 00:06:51,040 Speaker 6: come back to Zubots as a player, and there are 131 00:06:51,080 --> 00:06:53,680 Speaker 6: a lot of very quality elements to him. Yes, I 132 00:06:53,760 --> 00:06:56,720 Speaker 6: finally interesting. He is arguably the polar opposite center for 133 00:06:56,839 --> 00:07:03,000 Speaker 6: Miles Turner. Yes, and he absolutely owned Miles Turner in 134 00:07:03,080 --> 00:07:07,240 Speaker 6: matchups like we do see this across professional sports a lot. 135 00:07:07,680 --> 00:07:12,200 Speaker 6: If said player eats my team alive, we probably are 136 00:07:12,200 --> 00:07:14,520 Speaker 6: gonna be more inclined to pursue said player. And you 137 00:07:14,560 --> 00:07:17,040 Speaker 6: could make a case Zubots owns no team in the 138 00:07:17,160 --> 00:07:20,200 Speaker 6: NBA more than the Indiana Pacers, and Miles Turner being 139 00:07:20,280 --> 00:07:22,160 Speaker 6: the main culprit of that. A few years going in 140 00:07:22,200 --> 00:07:24,960 Speaker 6: a game of thirty one and twenty nine against the 141 00:07:24,960 --> 00:07:27,000 Speaker 6: Indiana Pacers, and you go back to Monday night we 142 00:07:27,040 --> 00:07:30,720 Speaker 6: discussed this against Houston, when Shengoon is just bullying you 143 00:07:31,160 --> 00:07:34,080 Speaker 6: at presence of Zubots, you would hope and pray that 144 00:07:34,240 --> 00:07:36,120 Speaker 6: is not going to happen. In all likelihood it would 145 00:07:36,160 --> 00:07:39,000 Speaker 6: not have happened to the magnitude of that. I am 146 00:07:39,040 --> 00:07:41,960 Speaker 6: struck by like a guy with career averages of ten 147 00:07:41,960 --> 00:07:44,960 Speaker 6: and eight nets this in return. It is kind of 148 00:07:45,000 --> 00:07:50,280 Speaker 6: wild that, like he gets all of this for him, 149 00:07:50,320 --> 00:07:53,000 Speaker 6: and James points out the attractive contract. I think that 150 00:07:53,120 --> 00:07:57,000 Speaker 6: is a big contributing factor to it, and probably one 151 00:07:57,000 --> 00:07:58,480 Speaker 6: more thing I'll add, and I know we'll get more 152 00:07:58,480 --> 00:08:04,360 Speaker 6: into this, certainly in the seven thirty segment. Did Benedict 153 00:08:04,600 --> 00:08:09,800 Speaker 6: Matherin want to be here? You know, that's probably a 154 00:08:09,800 --> 00:08:13,880 Speaker 6: point we didn't bring up enough this past week. Now, again, 155 00:08:13,920 --> 00:08:16,720 Speaker 6: he's a restricted free agent, so he doesn't have full 156 00:08:16,840 --> 00:08:20,240 Speaker 6: rain from an unrestricted free agency element of it. But 157 00:08:20,960 --> 00:08:23,080 Speaker 6: if the Pacers were going to continue to play him 158 00:08:23,120 --> 00:08:26,520 Speaker 6: in the six man role, then I do think that's 159 00:08:26,520 --> 00:08:29,000 Speaker 6: a question. And again if Matherin were to walk in 160 00:08:29,080 --> 00:08:31,600 Speaker 6: free agency, if you want to play out James's kind 161 00:08:31,600 --> 00:08:35,720 Speaker 6: of hypothetical trading throughout there, Let's say you do lose 162 00:08:35,720 --> 00:08:38,440 Speaker 6: your pick. Let's say the Pacers right now the best 163 00:08:38,600 --> 00:08:40,920 Speaker 6: lottery odds or I should say the most likely pick 164 00:08:40,960 --> 00:08:42,920 Speaker 6: for the Pacers I believe is sixth. So right now 165 00:08:42,920 --> 00:08:44,599 Speaker 6: the Pacers would lose their pick. If you want to 166 00:08:44,640 --> 00:08:48,880 Speaker 6: play the odd game, so you're trading away the sixth pick, 167 00:08:49,559 --> 00:08:55,560 Speaker 6: your twenty twenty nine pick and Isaiah Jackson. Let's just 168 00:08:55,600 --> 00:08:59,559 Speaker 6: call it Jackson and Kobe Brown a wash. You're trading 169 00:08:59,600 --> 00:09:03,680 Speaker 6: away sixth pick twenty twenty nine first round pick and 170 00:09:03,760 --> 00:09:07,560 Speaker 6: that second round pick for zoobots. If Matherin were to 171 00:09:07,640 --> 00:09:09,719 Speaker 6: walk in free agency, you know, you could look at 172 00:09:09,760 --> 00:09:13,840 Speaker 6: it from that aspect to it. But you know, again, 173 00:09:13,880 --> 00:09:15,320 Speaker 6: I will continue to beat the drum that I think 174 00:09:15,320 --> 00:09:18,160 Speaker 6: Benedict Mathern is a guy that's really taken for granted, 175 00:09:18,559 --> 00:09:21,320 Speaker 6: and I think at tied. Like we had a text 176 00:09:21,360 --> 00:09:24,960 Speaker 6: here yesterday, compare Benedict Matherin to Anthony Richardson. I'm like, 177 00:09:25,000 --> 00:09:28,240 Speaker 6: in what way, shape or form has Anthony Richardson accomplished 178 00:09:28,240 --> 00:09:30,400 Speaker 6: in the NFL with Benedict Matherins accomplished so far in 179 00:09:30,400 --> 00:09:35,040 Speaker 6: the NBA. I like, because the guy kind of hogs 180 00:09:35,080 --> 00:09:36,760 Speaker 6: the ball a little bit, maybe doesn't pass as much 181 00:09:36,800 --> 00:09:38,880 Speaker 6: as he should. I feel like we have this weird 182 00:09:39,080 --> 00:09:43,360 Speaker 6: like disdain on him when the dude, what Game three 183 00:09:43,360 --> 00:09:45,120 Speaker 6: the NBA Finals scored the most points a player of 184 00:09:45,160 --> 00:09:47,520 Speaker 6: his age has ever scored coming off the bench in 185 00:09:47,559 --> 00:09:51,439 Speaker 6: the finals in his first playoffs. So I'll continue to 186 00:09:51,440 --> 00:09:52,319 Speaker 6: beat that drum. 187 00:09:52,400 --> 00:09:54,760 Speaker 5: All right, and of course, the Hall of Fame announced 188 00:09:54,840 --> 00:09:58,760 Speaker 5: last night the inductees for twenty twenty six. It was 189 00:09:58,800 --> 00:10:01,080 Speaker 5: a no on Reggie Wayne, it was no on Frank Gore. 190 00:10:01,480 --> 00:10:03,200 Speaker 5: We already knew it was a no on Bill Belichick 191 00:10:03,200 --> 00:10:06,680 Speaker 5: and Robert Craft. But yes, Drew Brees and Adam Minitari. 192 00:10:06,840 --> 00:10:11,040 Speaker 5: So a Purdue quarterback goes in and after an unbelievable, 193 00:10:11,240 --> 00:10:14,360 Speaker 5: obviously deserving Hall of Fame. My wife's first question this 194 00:10:14,400 --> 00:10:16,080 Speaker 5: morning when I told her that was has he been 195 00:10:16,120 --> 00:10:19,800 Speaker 5: retired for five years already? That was her first question. 196 00:10:20,200 --> 00:10:23,640 Speaker 5: And then of course Adam Military, who started his career 197 00:10:24,040 --> 00:10:25,800 Speaker 5: won some Super Bowls with big kicks with the New 198 00:10:25,840 --> 00:10:28,360 Speaker 5: England Patriots, then came over to Indianapolis and became the 199 00:10:28,400 --> 00:10:31,439 Speaker 5: goat once and for all. So those guys getting into 200 00:10:31,440 --> 00:10:31,960 Speaker 5: the Hall of Fame. 201 00:10:32,040 --> 00:10:34,200 Speaker 2: Last night. There was also NFL Honors. 202 00:10:34,240 --> 00:10:37,160 Speaker 5: Will tell you all about MVP's Offensive Defensive Players of 203 00:10:37,200 --> 00:10:39,240 Speaker 5: the Year coming up in the checkdown. But a big 204 00:10:39,320 --> 00:10:42,600 Speaker 5: day the Pacers pick up a center for the future. 205 00:10:42,800 --> 00:10:44,920 Speaker 5: They let go of Benedict Matherin. We'll tell you all 206 00:10:44,960 --> 00:10:46,600 Speaker 5: about that and get you back into one more thing. 207 00:10:46,679 --> 00:10:48,439 Speaker 6: Yep, Mike Chappel is going to join us at nine 208 00:10:48,440 --> 00:10:50,920 Speaker 6: o'clock to discuss Hall of Fame voting again. He is 209 00:10:51,160 --> 00:10:54,720 Speaker 6: one of the selectors there. He did report last night 210 00:10:55,080 --> 00:10:58,960 Speaker 6: that Reggie Wayne didn't even make the top ten. So 211 00:10:59,040 --> 00:11:01,240 Speaker 6: if you are looking for Reggie Wayne to be inducted 212 00:11:01,280 --> 00:11:03,560 Speaker 6: into the Pro Football Hall of Fame, if you were 213 00:11:03,600 --> 00:11:05,680 Speaker 6: looking last night, it didn't happen. If you're looking for 214 00:11:05,760 --> 00:11:08,319 Speaker 6: him to go in, I would say eminently. 215 00:11:09,040 --> 00:11:10,600 Speaker 7: He's not gaining them with enough traction. 216 00:11:10,880 --> 00:11:12,800 Speaker 6: Don't get your hopes up. He is not viewed in 217 00:11:12,800 --> 00:11:16,120 Speaker 6: that room, very very highly in terms of an actual 218 00:11:16,480 --> 00:11:19,960 Speaker 6: Pro Football Hall of Famer and next year's class. Rob Gronkowski, 219 00:11:20,480 --> 00:11:25,600 Speaker 6: Adrian Peterson, Ben Roethlisberger, Richard Sherman, and Tory Holt will 220 00:11:25,600 --> 00:11:28,120 Speaker 6: be not saying all those are first ballot by any means, but. 221 00:11:29,440 --> 00:11:31,240 Speaker 7: I would venture to say at least two of the 222 00:11:31,280 --> 00:11:33,360 Speaker 7: guys you named are probably first ballot Hall of Famers 223 00:11:33,360 --> 00:11:37,480 Speaker 7: and Adrian Peter, yes, hell, Ben Roethlisberger, and boy, I. 224 00:11:37,440 --> 00:11:40,640 Speaker 6: Would say Peterson for sure. Gronk as well. I have 225 00:11:40,679 --> 00:11:44,720 Speaker 6: a feeling Reggie Wayne.

They acquired Viza Zubacs and Kobe Brown 243 00:12:37,000 --> 00:12:40,120 Speaker 5: from the Los Angeles Clippers for Benedict Mather and Isaiah 244 00:12:40,200 --> 00:12:43,440 Speaker 5: Jackson at twenty twenty six first that's protected for the 245 00:12:43,440 --> 00:12:46,640 Speaker 5: Pacers if it's the first four picks is not protected, 246 00:12:46,679 --> 00:12:47,319 Speaker 5: and picks. 247 00:12:47,080 --> 00:12:49,440 Speaker 2: Five through nine and a little bit later on in 248 00:12:49,440 --> 00:12:52,040 Speaker 2: the first round.

It is very aggressive and as 252 00:13:01,360 --> 00:13:05,000 Speaker 7: Kevin pointed out in the opening of the show Mother's Day, 253 00:13:05,559 --> 00:13:08,040 Speaker 7: we got to be praying and next to Mom telling 254 00:13:08,040 --> 00:13:09,840 Speaker 7: her to hey, you you do the thing where you 255 00:13:09,840 --> 00:13:11,480 Speaker 7: talk to God too. Because we need this pick. 256 00:13:11,640 --> 00:13:13,920 Speaker 5: We need to take all the moms that can get there, 257 00:13:14,520 --> 00:13:16,200 Speaker 5: go down to the field house and just do like 258 00:13:16,240 --> 00:13:18,320 Speaker 5: a prayer circle that that afternoon evening. 259 00:13:18,400 --> 00:13:20,199 Speaker 2: What do you think of Vin, I'm all in. 260 00:13:21,080 --> 00:13:23,400 Speaker 5: By the way, if you want to know more about 261 00:13:23,440 --> 00:13:26,320 Speaker 5: zubats fifth in rebounding in the NBA right now at 262 00:13:26,360 --> 00:13:30,120 Speaker 5: eleven rebounds per game, sixty one percent shooter from the field, 263 00:13:30,480 --> 00:13:33,760 Speaker 5: averaging fourteen to four point to four points. We know 264 00:13:33,800 --> 00:13:36,040 Speaker 5: he's physical, We know he can rebound. What about the 265 00:13:36,080 --> 00:13:37,400 Speaker 5: rest of his game? One thing we do know he 266 00:13:37,440 --> 00:13:39,080 Speaker 5: does not really shoot three point shots. 267 00:13:39,160 --> 00:13:41,480 Speaker 6: Yeah, I mean, honestly think polar opposite is center for 268 00:13:41,600 --> 00:13:44,720 Speaker 6: Miles Turner. That's probably the simplest way I can describe it. 269 00:13:44,800 --> 00:13:46,720 Speaker 6: He is much more of a you know, it was 270 00:13:46,800 --> 00:13:50,080 Speaker 6: picking pop with Turner. This is pick and roll with 271 00:13:50,200 --> 00:13:53,800 Speaker 6: Zuba's now again very effective offensive player, but he's not 272 00:13:54,080 --> 00:13:57,600 Speaker 6: stretching the floor per se as a shooter. I would 273 00:13:57,600 --> 00:14:01,760 Speaker 6: say defensively, much more resids distance from a on ball 274 00:14:01,880 --> 00:14:05,240 Speaker 6: defender than Turner had. That's arguably, I think probably the 275 00:14:05,240 --> 00:14:08,920 Speaker 6: best attribute that he will bring to the team so 276 00:14:08,920 --> 00:14:10,800 Speaker 6: so much. I think how people will view this trade 277 00:14:10,840 --> 00:14:12,800 Speaker 6: will come down to that draft pick. And right now, 278 00:14:12,920 --> 00:14:15,600 Speaker 6: if the odds, you know, if you look at the odds, 279 00:14:15,640 --> 00:14:18,760 Speaker 6: as the Pacers get back to action tonight, they would 280 00:14:18,760 --> 00:14:21,000 Speaker 6: have the six pick in the draft, just based off 281 00:14:21,080 --> 00:14:22,000 Speaker 6: lottery odds. 282 00:14:22,040 --> 00:14:22,160 Speaker 5: Now. 283 00:14:22,200 --> 00:14:25,040 Speaker 6: Again, a lot of that is very coin flippy. We 284 00:14:25,080 --> 00:14:29,760 Speaker 6: should note Zubots will not play tonight. His wife just 285 00:14:29,840 --> 00:14:32,760 Speaker 6: welcome their first daughter and their first child they should say, 286 00:14:33,000 --> 00:14:36,320 Speaker 6: into the world earlier this week. I'll be curious how 287 00:14:36,400 --> 00:14:39,880 Speaker 6: much Viza Zubots puts on a PACER's uniform the rest 288 00:14:39,920 --> 00:14:40,520 Speaker 6: of this season. 289 00:14:40,560 --> 00:14:43,320 Speaker 2: All right, let's check out what Ricarlo because of a kid. 290 00:14:43,360 --> 00:14:45,960 Speaker 6: To be clear, I don't know the paternity leave rules 291 00:14:45,960 --> 00:14:47,560 Speaker 6: in the NBA. 292 00:14:47,680 --> 00:14:49,320 Speaker 2: By the end of the show, we need to know that. 293 00:14:49,360 --> 00:14:51,800 Speaker 6: Okay, a little different than our paternity rules. 294 00:14:51,600 --> 00:14:55,760 Speaker 5: Here, right, I hope, So for their sec Let's go 295 00:14:55,880 --> 00:14:57,640 Speaker 5: check out what Rick Carlisle had to say at a 296 00:14:57,640 --> 00:15:00,520 Speaker 5: press conference yesterday talking about. 297 00:15:00,320 --> 00:15:04,080 Speaker 10: This, his level of physicality around the rim is really 298 00:15:05,440 --> 00:15:09,280 Speaker 10: he's really one of one of one of the most 299 00:15:09,480 --> 00:15:15,360 Speaker 10: prominent physical centers in the league. It's physicality and skill 300 00:15:15,720 --> 00:15:20,800 Speaker 10: in rebounding and offensive rebounding, and so this this will 301 00:15:20,800 --> 00:15:24,920 Speaker 10: our rebounding. You know, we obviously feel the fit is 302 00:15:24,960 --> 00:15:30,800 Speaker 10: good with Tyrese Pascal and and our other veteran guys, 303 00:15:31,120 --> 00:15:35,680 Speaker 10: and uh that he will be very warmly embraced by 304 00:15:35,680 --> 00:15:38,800 Speaker 10: our fan base.

You know, if you look at it 341 00:17:20,920 --> 00:17:22,840 Speaker 6: from a cold standpoint, REGGI, Wayne didn't even make the 342 00:17:22,880 --> 00:17:26,439 Speaker 6: top ten, So I think that really stands out to 343 00:17:26,480 --> 00:17:30,639 Speaker 6: me and just the continued, I guess lack of appreciation 344 00:17:30,760 --> 00:17:32,800 Speaker 6: inside that room for Wayne as a true Hall of 345 00:17:32,800 --> 00:17:35,680 Speaker 6: Famer first just a finalist there, but frankly I thought 346 00:17:35,720 --> 00:17:37,440 Speaker 6: Venatari should have been a first ballot Hall of Famer. 347 00:17:38,119 --> 00:17:41,800 Speaker 6: You know, it's not just the longevity, most points scored, 348 00:17:41,920 --> 00:17:44,919 Speaker 6: most field goals made. It's the clutch kicks, and really 349 00:17:45,520 --> 00:17:48,080 Speaker 6: it's the kicks in whether like we had last week. 350 00:17:48,760 --> 00:17:52,160 Speaker 6: You know, everyone points to the Tuck Rule game that kick. Obviously. 351 00:17:52,560 --> 00:17:55,399 Speaker 6: I think Vanataria said this before. He feels like the 352 00:17:55,400 --> 00:17:57,200 Speaker 6: greatest kick he's ever made was the kick in the 353 00:17:57,240 --> 00:18:01,760 Speaker 6: Snowstorm in Buffalo in twenty seventeen, an extra point again 354 00:18:01,840 --> 00:18:03,639 Speaker 6: new extra points, a thirty three yard extra point to 355 00:18:03,680 --> 00:18:05,800 Speaker 6: send the Colts in overtime of that game. That was, 356 00:18:05,840 --> 00:18:07,959 Speaker 6: like I think everybody kind of remembers that game of 357 00:18:08,000 --> 00:18:12,000 Speaker 6: like inches of snow falling within that game, so yes, 358 00:18:12,160 --> 00:18:14,480 Speaker 6: true goat and again should have gone in as the 359 00:18:14,520 --> 00:18:15,200 Speaker 6: first balloder. 360 00:18:15,359 --> 00:18:17,600 Speaker 5: All right, here's the rest of the awards list from 361 00:18:17,680 --> 00:18:20,800 Speaker 5: last night.

Again, it's a training run. The fact 413 00:20:33,240 --> 00:20:35,720 Speaker 6: that she just completed it quite something, I would say, 414 00:20:35,800 --> 00:20:38,560 Speaker 6: so opening ceremonies later today, I want to say live 415 00:20:38,600 --> 00:20:41,840 Speaker 6: at two o'clock for those all right. 416 00:20:41,920 --> 00:20:46,960 Speaker 5: The women's official training in Milano, Cartina also for ski 417 00:20:47,080 --> 00:20:50,520 Speaker 5: jumping has been completed too, so we're easing into it 418 00:20:50,560 --> 00:20:54,040 Speaker 5: a lot of practices.

Good day for the 420 00:20:57,400 --> 00:21:00,800 Speaker 5: United States, and we'll go full into all of it 421 00:21:00,840 --> 00:21:02,840 Speaker 5: coming up this weekend. I know My wife was busy 422 00:21:02,880 --> 00:21:06,040 Speaker 5: already this morning at five o'clock watching some figure skating 423 00:21:06,080 --> 00:21:08,320 Speaker 5: of some sort. Looked like it was Pears or something 424 00:21:08,400 --> 00:21:10,800 Speaker 5: like that, So I was busy drinking coffee and getting 425 00:21:10,800 --> 00:21:13,080 Speaker 5: ready for the show. James, I have a question for 426 00:21:13,119 --> 00:21:15,280 Speaker 5: you all after the break, all right, we'll find out 427 00:21:15,280 --> 00:21:17,320 Speaker 5: what that is in a moment. It's ninety three five 428 00:21:17,320 --> 00:21:21,720 Speaker 5: and one oh seven five of the fan Happy Friday, 429 00:21:22,200 --> 00:21:24,840 Speaker 5: as we move into a new. 430 00:21:24,680 --> 00:21:26,280 Speaker 2: Reality for the Indiana Pacers. 431 00:21:26,320 --> 00:21:29,480 Speaker 5: As Tyrese Haliburton continues to sit out with the recovery 432 00:21:29,560 --> 00:21:32,720 Speaker 5: time on that torn Achilles, a trade has been made, 433 00:21:32,840 --> 00:21:35,359 Speaker 5: and the center that they've been missing since Myles Turner 434 00:21:35,440 --> 00:21:38,320 Speaker 5: left last summer appears to be on his way, and 435 00:21:38,400 --> 00:21:42,440 Speaker 5: we're looking forward to seeing Aviza Zubats when he plays 436 00:21:42,480 --> 00:21:45,640 Speaker 5: probably next week at some point in time, James, he's 437 00:21:45,680 --> 00:21:47,800 Speaker 5: on paternity leave right now, so won't be with them 438 00:21:47,800 --> 00:21:51,400 Speaker 5: in Milwaukee tonight, but it'll be interesting to see how 439 00:21:51,560 --> 00:21:54,879 Speaker 5: Rick Carlisle plays all this down the stretch. Knowing that 440 00:21:54,920 --> 00:21:59,960 Speaker 5: you've got protected picks one through four this year, the 441 00:22:00,280 --> 00:22:03,800 Speaker 5: best go about playing well but maybe not winning so 442 00:22:03,880 --> 00:22:04,520 Speaker 5: many games. 443 00:22:05,880 --> 00:22:09,840 Speaker 7: So this leads me to my question I'm looking at 444 00:22:09,880 --> 00:22:13,720 Speaker 7: the NBA's low management rules that were implemented a couple 445 00:22:13,760 --> 00:22:18,840 Speaker 7: of seasons ago. How are you tanking? And is that 446 00:22:18,880 --> 00:22:20,480 Speaker 7: the best? The best approach to that? We talked about 447 00:22:20,480 --> 00:22:23,040 Speaker 7: it briefly, Kevin, like do you want to win and 448 00:22:23,119 --> 00:22:27,080 Speaker 7: kind of get yourself out of the like the top 449 00:22:27,160 --> 00:22:29,400 Speaker 7: ten spot. If you get to the you know, number ten, 450 00:22:30,280 --> 00:22:32,040 Speaker 7: you get to keep your pick, you know if you 451 00:22:32,119 --> 00:22:35,160 Speaker 7: land at the number ten spot in the lottery, or 452 00:22:36,080 --> 00:22:38,320 Speaker 7: do you just go all in on tanking? And again, 453 00:22:38,400 --> 00:22:40,240 Speaker 7: how you do that? Because look at the rules right here. 454 00:22:41,200 --> 00:22:43,480 Speaker 7: This is for a star players, like it has it 455 00:22:43,640 --> 00:22:46,880 Speaker 7: specifically written you have to refrain from any long term 456 00:22:46,960 --> 00:22:49,600 Speaker 7: shut down when a star stops participating in games or 457 00:22:49,640 --> 00:22:52,679 Speaker 7: appears only in a materially reduced role that could affect 458 00:22:52,720 --> 00:22:57,920 Speaker 7: integrity of the game. That sounds like Pascal Siakam, How 459 00:22:57,920 --> 00:23:02,280 Speaker 7: are you going to manage him? Does he go from 460 00:23:02,320 --> 00:23:07,280 Speaker 7: playing thirty something minutes to twenty to eighteen? Does he 461 00:23:07,359 --> 00:23:09,440 Speaker 7: have an injury like I saw with Malcolm Brogden a 462 00:23:09,480 --> 00:23:11,920 Speaker 7: few years ago, where I think he had like achillesonon 463 00:23:11,960 --> 00:23:16,679 Speaker 7: night is for forever? But I say injured in air 464 00:23:16,760 --> 00:23:18,800 Speaker 7: quotes because everyone knew he was not going to play 465 00:23:18,840 --> 00:23:21,399 Speaker 7: again for the team, So how do you do this 466 00:23:21,480 --> 00:23:24,280 Speaker 7: without having a league mandate come down and you Now, 467 00:23:24,280 --> 00:23:26,320 Speaker 7: I will say they benefit from a lot of these 468 00:23:26,400 --> 00:23:28,199 Speaker 7: restrictions because a lot of it has to do with 469 00:23:28,920 --> 00:23:33,040 Speaker 7: nationally televised games. N season tournament games. N season tournament 470 00:23:33,040 --> 00:23:34,800 Speaker 7: is over, the Pacers are not going to be on 471 00:23:34,880 --> 00:23:36,480 Speaker 7: very many national TV games the rest of the year, 472 00:23:36,480 --> 00:23:39,200 Speaker 7: I would imagine. But that's my question. 473 00:23:39,359 --> 00:23:42,080 Speaker 6: Okay, let's try and explain this in the most elementary 474 00:23:42,119 --> 00:23:44,760 Speaker 6: way possible, yes, which I think is very difficult to do, 475 00:23:44,840 --> 00:23:48,280 Speaker 6: So feel free to tell me I'm being too confusing 476 00:23:48,480 --> 00:23:51,320 Speaker 6: to Okay, try to make it sound simpler, because I 477 00:23:51,320 --> 00:23:55,400 Speaker 6: think it's really hard to explain. The Pacers are thirteen 478 00:23:55,440 --> 00:23:58,400 Speaker 6: and thirty eight. They have thirty one games left this season. Yes, 479 00:23:58,480 --> 00:24:01,040 Speaker 6: they have the third worst record currently in the NBA. 480 00:24:01,680 --> 00:24:04,480 Speaker 6: That means if the lottery was today, they would have 481 00:24:04,560 --> 00:24:07,680 Speaker 6: a fifty two percent chance at a top four pick. 482 00:24:08,320 --> 00:24:10,920 Speaker 6: So you have a fifty two percent chance to keep 483 00:24:11,000 --> 00:24:13,120 Speaker 6: your pick right. If you are one, two, three four, 484 00:24:13,440 --> 00:24:16,159 Speaker 6: that pick is the Indiana Pacers pick come June. 485 00:24:16,240 --> 00:24:16,440 Speaker 5: Right. 486 00:24:16,520 --> 00:24:19,080 Speaker 6: If it's five, six, seven, eight nine, it goes to 487 00:24:19,119 --> 00:24:22,600 Speaker 6: the La Clippers. If it's ten the rest of the way, 488 00:24:23,160 --> 00:24:26,880 Speaker 6: it is also a Pacer pick. So again the odds 489 00:24:27,160 --> 00:24:31,200 Speaker 6: start to shrink if the Pacers start to win a 490 00:24:31,200 --> 00:24:33,359 Speaker 6: little bit. For example, right now, if you look at 491 00:24:33,400 --> 00:24:37,560 Speaker 6: the odds, it's very the top six teams of the 492 00:24:37,560 --> 00:24:40,280 Speaker 6: worst record are separated by four games, so it's very 493 00:24:40,280 --> 00:24:43,520 Speaker 6: close one through six. If the Pacers were to be 494 00:24:43,640 --> 00:24:47,640 Speaker 6: that team in the sixth spot, aka three more wins, 495 00:24:48,920 --> 00:24:51,280 Speaker 6: the fifty two percent number that I just shared for 496 00:24:51,320 --> 00:24:54,600 Speaker 6: a top four pick it goes to about thirty seven percent. 497 00:24:55,880 --> 00:24:59,440 Speaker 6: So if they start to win, your coin flip now 498 00:24:59,480 --> 00:25:03,840 Speaker 6: become one in every three, right, and so this is 499 00:25:03,920 --> 00:25:06,240 Speaker 6: the risk that you get into. Now. I have heard 500 00:25:06,240 --> 00:25:11,400 Speaker 6: some people say, well, they should actually try to win 501 00:25:12,119 --> 00:25:15,000 Speaker 6: and get all the way to the bottom of the lottery, 502 00:25:15,040 --> 00:25:19,280 Speaker 6: because again, if they get to number ten, they keep 503 00:25:19,280 --> 00:25:22,560 Speaker 6: their pick no matter what. They could strike lightning in 504 00:25:22,600 --> 00:25:25,840 Speaker 6: a bottle and hit on the whatever four percent chance 505 00:25:25,840 --> 00:25:28,200 Speaker 6: of getting the number one pick a lah Dallas last 506 00:25:28,280 --> 00:25:31,639 Speaker 6: year with Cooper Flag, or the more likely scenario is 507 00:25:32,400 --> 00:25:35,280 Speaker 6: they just keep their tenth pick because again, based off 508 00:25:35,320 --> 00:25:37,640 Speaker 6: how the odds work, they couldn't get to five, six, seven, 509 00:25:37,640 --> 00:25:40,280 Speaker 6: eight or nine if they sat there with the tenth 510 00:25:40,760 --> 00:25:44,560 Speaker 6: best odds entering the lottery. Now, right now, the tenth 511 00:25:44,640 --> 00:25:47,119 Speaker 6: best team in the league has twenty three wins. That 512 00:25:47,119 --> 00:25:50,080 Speaker 6: would be Portland tenth worst team. I should say the 513 00:25:50,080 --> 00:25:53,320 Speaker 6: Pacers have thirteen. Well, thirteen to twenty three is a lot. 514 00:25:53,440 --> 00:25:54,600 Speaker 6: I don't care who you're playing. 515 00:25:54,440 --> 00:25:57,160 Speaker 5: Especially when what we've only got three months left in. 516 00:25:57,080 --> 00:26:00,040 Speaker 6: The thirty one games left in the season. So I 517 00:26:00,640 --> 00:26:04,720 Speaker 6: feel like that kind of covers everything you know. Right now, 518 00:26:04,720 --> 00:26:06,399 Speaker 6: if you look at the odds again, it's a fifty 519 00:26:06,440 --> 00:26:09,520 Speaker 6: two percent chance at a top four pick you would retain, 520 00:26:10,040 --> 00:26:14,679 Speaker 6: just based off all the simulations. Right now, the best pick, 521 00:26:15,160 --> 00:26:17,680 Speaker 6: the most likely pick the Pacers would have, is actually six, 522 00:26:18,480 --> 00:26:23,160 Speaker 6: which would go to La. So again, I and. 523 00:26:23,119 --> 00:26:26,480 Speaker 5: That changes a lot like week to week two right now, it. 524 00:26:26,800 --> 00:26:29,520 Speaker 6: Does, but not as much as like the NFL. The 525 00:26:29,600 --> 00:26:33,240 Speaker 6: NFL is purely off of record, purely off of record, 526 00:26:33,320 --> 00:26:38,120 Speaker 6: just reverse order. The NBA in trying to lessen tanking, 527 00:26:38,800 --> 00:26:40,680 Speaker 6: which we all can laugh at as James reads off 528 00:26:40,720 --> 00:26:42,400 Speaker 6: the tanking rules. I know idea that are a load 529 00:26:42,400 --> 00:26:46,560 Speaker 6: management rules till James's right them off. The odds they 530 00:26:46,600 --> 00:26:50,680 Speaker 6: do shift Jeff, But they don't shift like drastically unless 531 00:26:50,720 --> 00:26:53,399 Speaker 6: you know. But I think that really really win or 532 00:26:53,520 --> 00:26:59,120 Speaker 6: really really lose again, right now, teams one, two, and three, Sacramento, 533 00:26:59,280 --> 00:27:02,360 Speaker 6: New Orleans, and Indiana, they all have the same odds 534 00:27:02,920 --> 00:27:05,159 Speaker 6: of getting in the top four. They all have the 535 00:27:05,160 --> 00:27:08,240 Speaker 6: same odds of getting the first overall pick. It's fourteen percent. 536 00:27:08,280 --> 00:27:10,680 Speaker 6: Currently right now, the Pacers have a fourteen percent chance, 537 00:27:10,720 --> 00:27:13,640 Speaker 6: which is the best odds. So if this were the NFL, 538 00:27:14,560 --> 00:27:17,800 Speaker 6: the Pacers would sit there with the third overall pick. 539 00:27:18,440 --> 00:27:22,439 Speaker 6: No debate with the NBA, they technically have the same 540 00:27:22,640 --> 00:27:25,439 Speaker 6: odds as the second worst team in the league and 541 00:27:25,520 --> 00:27:27,600 Speaker 6: the first worst team in the league. 542 00:27:30,800 --> 00:27:33,600 Speaker 7: So again, comple fight or not? That I think was 543 00:27:33,640 --> 00:27:34,960 Speaker 7: a good explainer. 544 00:27:35,080 --> 00:27:35,840 Speaker 6: What will we miss? 545 00:27:36,560 --> 00:27:39,760 Speaker 7: I don't think you missed anything. But then my addition 546 00:27:39,880 --> 00:27:43,720 Speaker 7: to that is, how do you keep losing? So can 547 00:27:43,720 --> 00:27:45,720 Speaker 7: you tell players? You can't tell players, you can't do 548 00:27:45,720 --> 00:27:49,280 Speaker 7: a Chaanci bills and say, hey, you know, let's get 549 00:27:49,320 --> 00:27:50,960 Speaker 7: a little funny with how we perform. 550 00:27:51,200 --> 00:27:54,639 Speaker 6: So let's start there is the best case scenario to 551 00:27:54,720 --> 00:27:56,679 Speaker 6: keep losing? Do you believe in the try to go 552 00:27:56,720 --> 00:27:57,720 Speaker 6: for the tenth pick at all? 553 00:27:58,280 --> 00:27:59,880 Speaker 7: I don't because I don't think it's realistic. 554 00:28:00,280 --> 00:28:01,240 Speaker 6: I don't think you're ten wins. 555 00:28:01,320 --> 00:28:03,679 Speaker 7: Yeah, I don't think you can climb that far. I 556 00:28:03,680 --> 00:28:07,879 Speaker 7: think the most realistic way to maximize the trade you 557 00:28:08,000 --> 00:28:11,240 Speaker 7: just made is to lose. And I think they know 558 00:28:11,320 --> 00:28:14,280 Speaker 7: that as well. But I'm asking how do you do that? 559 00:28:14,440 --> 00:28:16,439 Speaker 5: I think you see a lot of quad strains, a 560 00:28:16,440 --> 00:28:19,679 Speaker 5: lot of sowred groins. I hurt my back sneezing this morning. 561 00:28:20,320 --> 00:28:21,920 Speaker 5: I think you see a lot of things like that. 562 00:28:22,440 --> 00:28:24,360 Speaker 5: I don't know how you get a player onto the court. 563 00:28:24,400 --> 00:28:25,960 Speaker 5: Once a player gets on the court, he's gonna try 564 00:28:26,000 --> 00:28:26,240 Speaker 5: to win. 565 00:28:27,359 --> 00:28:28,920 Speaker 6: You said zubots might play next week. 566 00:28:29,960 --> 00:28:32,280 Speaker 5: Do you believe that whenever he gets back from paternity 567 00:28:32,400 --> 00:28:33,720 Speaker 5: they're gonna have put him in the line up at 568 00:28:33,720 --> 00:28:34,240 Speaker 5: some point? 569 00:28:34,600 --> 00:28:35,720 Speaker 6: Well, are you taking or not? 570 00:28:36,640 --> 00:28:41,040 Speaker 7: But that's my question, like not necessarily, Like how like 571 00:28:41,120 --> 00:28:43,480 Speaker 7: investigate this? I'm serious, Like how does the NBA look 572 00:28:43,560 --> 00:28:45,840 Speaker 7: they because they know, sure they're gonna look at the 573 00:28:45,840 --> 00:28:48,719 Speaker 7: situation and say, this is an obvious move to lose, 574 00:28:49,360 --> 00:28:52,200 Speaker 7: But how organically do you make it look? And how 575 00:28:52,360 --> 00:28:55,160 Speaker 7: invested will the league be? And looking into that, because 576 00:28:56,000 --> 00:28:58,640 Speaker 7: you can't just do like you did ten years ago 577 00:28:59,240 --> 00:29:01,840 Speaker 7: and just sit a bunch of dudes like you can't 578 00:29:01,880 --> 00:29:05,400 Speaker 7: look at Pascalciakam without a medical injury and say, and. 579 00:29:05,360 --> 00:29:08,200 Speaker 6: What are the penalty we're gonna shut you finds probably fine, 580 00:29:08,280 --> 00:29:10,520 Speaker 6: and if it gets not worse, I would think that 581 00:29:10,560 --> 00:29:11,280 Speaker 6: they they could. 582 00:29:11,440 --> 00:29:13,440 Speaker 7: I would imagine that is a penalty that they could 583 00:29:13,600 --> 00:29:17,320 Speaker 7: implement if it gets to that point. But I'm just 584 00:29:17,440 --> 00:29:19,880 Speaker 7: very curious to see how you do it and how 585 00:29:19,920 --> 00:29:21,840 Speaker 7: good do you make it look, because we all know 586 00:29:22,400 --> 00:29:25,440 Speaker 7: you're trying to lose, and I get it. You can 587 00:29:25,480 --> 00:29:28,760 Speaker 7: rest certain guys, and they certainly will. But my whole 588 00:29:28,760 --> 00:29:32,720 Speaker 7: thing is I just don't necessarily see a scenario where Passcalciakum, 589 00:29:32,720 --> 00:29:35,520 Speaker 7: for example, doesn't play the last fifteen games of the year. 590 00:29:35,840 --> 00:29:38,680 Speaker 6: And just to remind everybody, if the Pacers were to 591 00:29:38,800 --> 00:29:41,440 Speaker 6: lose their pick five, six, seven, eight, or nine and 592 00:29:41,480 --> 00:29:45,080 Speaker 6: it goes to the Clippers, then the Clippers would later on 593 00:29:45,280 --> 00:29:49,240 Speaker 6: get the twenty thirty one first round pick for the Pacers. 594 00:29:49,280 --> 00:29:51,800 Speaker 6: So twenty twenty nine, no matter what is going to 595 00:29:51,840 --> 00:29:54,360 Speaker 6: the Clippers, that's unprotected, So no matter where it is 596 00:29:54,880 --> 00:29:57,120 Speaker 6: in the twenty nine draft. Obviously, in twenty twenty nine, 597 00:29:57,160 --> 00:30:01,360 Speaker 6: you're thinking the Pacers are a high level basket ball team. 598 00:30:01,840 --> 00:30:04,320 Speaker 6: So that's just a reminder. So basically you're looking at 599 00:30:04,320 --> 00:30:06,560 Speaker 6: if you want to mock draft it out, Let's say 600 00:30:06,600 --> 00:30:13,560 Speaker 6: the Big four Darren Peterson, AJ Debantsa, Caleb Wilson, Cameron Boozer. 601 00:30:13,680 --> 00:30:16,480 Speaker 6: Let's say those are your first four picks. That means 602 00:30:16,680 --> 00:30:19,520 Speaker 6: if it happened five through nine, the Pacers would be 603 00:30:19,520 --> 00:30:23,920 Speaker 6: missing out of the opportunity to draft Woggler, James's boy 604 00:30:24,160 --> 00:30:30,120 Speaker 6: from Illinois, Kingston Flemings point guard from Houston. There's an 605 00:30:30,160 --> 00:30:34,080 Speaker 6: Arizona guard Barrios that I see. His name, Actually pretty 606 00:30:34,120 --> 00:30:36,840 Speaker 6: pretty impressed when I watch him play. Elijah Renas James, 607 00:30:36,880 --> 00:30:39,440 Speaker 6: who we saw the other night. Yeah, with USC. You know, 608 00:30:39,440 --> 00:30:41,959 Speaker 6: I think he's potentially a guy kind of in that 609 00:30:42,080 --> 00:30:44,920 Speaker 6: in that top ten. Not a lot of bigs, but 610 00:30:45,600 --> 00:30:48,680 Speaker 6: those are some of the names. Mark, you had eyes 611 00:30:48,760 --> 00:30:49,880 Speaker 6: on us, like you had something. 612 00:30:50,320 --> 00:30:52,520 Speaker 8: Well, No, I was just saying, like my thought was, 613 00:30:53,080 --> 00:30:54,760 Speaker 8: I don't think they really have to try that hard 614 00:30:54,800 --> 00:30:57,480 Speaker 8: to like tank, Like we've watched this team all season, right, Like, 615 00:30:57,520 --> 00:31:00,160 Speaker 8: I know you're adding some pieces, but like I still 616 00:31:00,160 --> 00:31:01,520 Speaker 8: think the losses are gonna. 617 00:31:01,240 --> 00:31:03,120 Speaker 6: Come market They'll just had their best month of the 618 00:31:03,160 --> 00:31:04,600 Speaker 6: season with that too. 619 00:31:05,280 --> 00:31:06,720 Speaker 8: They just think that this is going to be some 620 00:31:06,920 --> 00:31:09,360 Speaker 8: like the NBA's first of all, the NBA, if they're 621 00:31:09,360 --> 00:31:11,440 Speaker 8: worried about tanking, then they need to figure out their 622 00:31:11,440 --> 00:31:14,800 Speaker 8: whole draft compensation thing, because oh, this is protected. If 623 00:31:14,800 --> 00:31:17,640 Speaker 8: it's this and this, it's either treated like a regular 624 00:31:17,720 --> 00:31:19,600 Speaker 8: draft pick, where once you trade a first round pick, 625 00:31:19,600 --> 00:31:21,920 Speaker 8: it doesn't matter where it is it's traded, instead of 626 00:31:21,920 --> 00:31:23,320 Speaker 8: having all these protections on it. 627 00:31:23,400 --> 00:31:25,360 Speaker 6: So that's how you get out of the hole. Are 628 00:31:25,400 --> 00:31:27,560 Speaker 6: these teams tanking or not on purpose? That's how you 629 00:31:27,600 --> 00:31:28,840 Speaker 6: would fix that right out of the game. 630 00:31:28,840 --> 00:31:30,920 Speaker 8: If the Pacers just outright traded their twenty twenty six 631 00:31:31,120 --> 00:31:33,200 Speaker 8: first round pick, it wouldn't matter what they did the 632 00:31:33,200 --> 00:31:35,600 Speaker 8: rest of the season. But because there's all these protections 633 00:31:35,640 --> 00:31:37,400 Speaker 8: now they have to try to game the system a 634 00:31:37,440 --> 00:31:37,840 Speaker 8: little bit. 635 00:31:37,920 --> 00:31:42,920 Speaker 6: You're three wins away from your odds decreasing by about 636 00:31:42,960 --> 00:31:46,000 Speaker 6: twenty percent to get a top four pick. And again 637 00:31:46,120 --> 00:31:48,640 Speaker 6: they just would they go in January five hundred. 638 00:31:50,360 --> 00:31:51,960 Speaker 7: Yeah, they had their best month of the year. 639 00:31:52,080 --> 00:31:56,480 Speaker 6: So yeah, this is I mean, it gets if you 640 00:31:56,520 --> 00:31:58,240 Speaker 6: look at their back half of the schedule. They play 641 00:31:58,240 --> 00:32:02,520 Speaker 6: a lot of these teams around them in the tank standing. 642 00:32:02,560 --> 00:32:04,440 Speaker 6: So again, there are other elements of this trade. I 643 00:32:04,480 --> 00:32:06,240 Speaker 6: do want to get into Zubats, Mather and et cetera, 644 00:32:06,280 --> 00:32:08,760 Speaker 6: et cetera. But I did feel the need that we 645 00:32:09,080 --> 00:32:11,800 Speaker 6: will want to try to pen and paper actual tanking 646 00:32:12,080 --> 00:32:16,920 Speaker 6: odds and explain a little bit of what this trade 647 00:32:17,120 --> 00:32:18,959 Speaker 6: does look like right now and what it could look 648 00:32:19,040 --> 00:32:20,520 Speaker 6: like here in a few months. And again, the draft 649 00:32:20,600 --> 00:32:22,640 Speaker 6: lottery is Mother's Day night. 650 00:32:23,040 --> 00:32:23,920 Speaker 2: Here's the other part of that. 651 00:32:24,120 --> 00:32:27,080 Speaker 5: Here, here's the when you to your point, Kevin, the 652 00:32:27,160 --> 00:32:29,440 Speaker 5: starting five is not bad for this team right now, 653 00:32:30,480 --> 00:32:34,880 Speaker 5: Like right now, if you start Zubots at center, and 654 00:32:34,920 --> 00:32:37,720 Speaker 5: then you've got Pascal Siakam, you've got Andrew Nemhart, You've 655 00:32:37,760 --> 00:32:38,840 Speaker 5: got aaron Ne Smith. 656 00:32:39,400 --> 00:32:39,680 Speaker 11: I don't know. 657 00:32:39,800 --> 00:32:41,920 Speaker 5: Do you start Jeris Walker the rest of the way. 658 00:32:43,000 --> 00:32:45,840 Speaker 5: That's not a terrible starting five, James. It's gonna beat 659 00:32:45,840 --> 00:32:47,360 Speaker 5: a lot of bad basketball teams. 660 00:32:49,680 --> 00:32:51,760 Speaker 7: I'm very curious to see what happens ENTI games in 661 00:32:51,800 --> 00:32:54,240 Speaker 7: the fourth quarter. Everybody, come on and sit next to me. 662 00:32:56,040 --> 00:32:59,680 Speaker 5: You got Ben Shephard and Micah Potter and power pack 663 00:32:59,760 --> 00:33:01,200 Speaker 5: in jam Jones out there. 664 00:33:01,320 --> 00:33:04,600 Speaker 7: You exit, Yeah, I mean I'm very curious. I had 665 00:33:04,600 --> 00:33:07,480 Speaker 7: a few people who were tagging me and JAMV saying, hey, 666 00:33:07,520 --> 00:33:09,360 Speaker 7: you guys are ready to play, and I was sinking 667 00:33:09,360 --> 00:33:11,080 Speaker 7: I could definitely lose you some games in the NBA. 668 00:33:11,960 --> 00:33:14,200 Speaker 5: Let's check the fan text line and see what's up there. 669 00:33:14,480 --> 00:33:15,719 Speaker 5: Two three, nine, ten, seventy. 670 00:33:16,200 --> 00:33:16,840 Speaker 2: Ryan here. 671 00:33:17,680 --> 00:33:20,400 Speaker 5: This avoided the worst possible outcome for the Pacers in 672 00:33:20,440 --> 00:33:24,080 Speaker 5: the offseason. The worst would have been Matherin leaves, forces 673 00:33:24,120 --> 00:33:26,240 Speaker 5: the Pacers to match and go deeper into the tax. 674 00:33:26,840 --> 00:33:28,560 Speaker 5: You fall out of the top four in the draft, 675 00:33:28,640 --> 00:33:30,920 Speaker 5: you don't have an answer at center. The trade got 676 00:33:31,080 --> 00:33:33,920 Speaker 5: value out of Ben Benedict and solve the center problem. 677 00:33:33,960 --> 00:33:36,640 Speaker 5: The trade does not impact the pick. It either is 678 00:33:36,720 --> 00:33:37,720 Speaker 5: top four or not. 679 00:33:40,440 --> 00:33:42,160 Speaker 6: I think the first part of it, I can nod 680 00:33:42,280 --> 00:33:44,760 Speaker 6: my head at again, did Benedict Matherin want to be 681 00:33:44,880 --> 00:33:47,760 Speaker 6: here now? Again? He's a restricted free agent, so there's 682 00:33:47,800 --> 00:33:51,080 Speaker 6: only so much there. But I do think that is 683 00:33:51,120 --> 00:33:53,640 Speaker 6: a question. You know, when this week started, I said 684 00:33:53,640 --> 00:33:55,440 Speaker 6: to you guys, as much as I love Matherin, this 685 00:33:55,600 --> 00:33:58,440 Speaker 6: team cannot afford to let a second guy walk without 686 00:33:58,480 --> 00:34:00,800 Speaker 6: getting anything in return. And by sayo, me and Miles 687 00:34:00,880 --> 00:34:04,920 Speaker 6: Turner being the first, and that's what you did here. Now, 688 00:34:05,400 --> 00:34:08,680 Speaker 6: I think the trade bait and the pick debate Ryan's 689 00:34:08,719 --> 00:34:11,520 Speaker 6: not given enough credence too, because as much as we 690 00:34:11,600 --> 00:34:13,319 Speaker 6: sit here and say, oh, this draft's only a four 691 00:34:13,360 --> 00:34:16,000 Speaker 6: person draft, let's go through the history of NBA drafts. 692 00:34:17,200 --> 00:34:19,920 Speaker 6: There are a lot of random picks or picks on 693 00:34:20,080 --> 00:34:22,680 Speaker 6: draft night that you didn't really think was something. Look 694 00:34:22,680 --> 00:34:25,640 Speaker 6: at the Halliburton draft. He's a perfect example of it. 695 00:34:25,760 --> 00:34:30,000 Speaker 6: Where was he eleventh, twelfth? And now look at that redraft. 696 00:34:30,640 --> 00:34:33,680 Speaker 6: The NBA draft is such a crapshoot. 697 00:34:34,080 --> 00:34:36,480 Speaker 7: I will say this though. I mean we went through 698 00:34:36,520 --> 00:34:39,680 Speaker 7: this actually a few years ago with the Pacers when 699 00:34:39,680 --> 00:34:42,719 Speaker 7: they got the number six pick for Bendict Mather ironically, 700 00:34:44,200 --> 00:34:45,840 Speaker 7: and I did it for Indy Star with Matt Newell. 701 00:34:47,200 --> 00:34:50,080 Speaker 7: If you look at the amount of all NBA All 702 00:34:50,160 --> 00:34:52,440 Speaker 7: Star players that are outside of that top five, once 703 00:34:52,480 --> 00:34:56,400 Speaker 7: you get past five in the in NBA history, it 704 00:34:56,520 --> 00:35:00,400 Speaker 7: drops off considerably. So I mean, while you can say, oh, well, 705 00:35:00,400 --> 00:35:02,680 Speaker 7: you know, Giannis was I think a number fifteen, and 706 00:35:03,360 --> 00:35:05,759 Speaker 7: Steph might have been like number seven or something like that, 707 00:35:06,600 --> 00:35:10,440 Speaker 7: it is very very rare that you get a franchise 708 00:35:10,520 --> 00:35:12,879 Speaker 7: altering player outside of the top five. 709 00:35:13,120 --> 00:35:15,520 Speaker 6: Sure, but let's look at the Pacers starting lineup. We 710 00:35:15,600 --> 00:35:17,719 Speaker 6: think the Pacers have a championship level team, not a 711 00:35:17,760 --> 00:35:19,920 Speaker 6: single one of their starters a top ten pick. I 712 00:35:20,040 --> 00:35:22,719 Speaker 6: agree with that. It just it's and that's why I 713 00:35:22,800 --> 00:35:24,520 Speaker 6: do the Jordan shrug a little bit here, and I 714 00:35:24,560 --> 00:35:28,960 Speaker 6: should say the security guard shrug of like it's hard 715 00:35:29,000 --> 00:35:31,200 Speaker 6: to truly predict. I mean, Woggler is a great example 716 00:35:31,239 --> 00:35:33,719 Speaker 6: of it in college basketball. Yeah, you know, four months 717 00:35:33,719 --> 00:35:35,920 Speaker 6: ago he was a whatever, a top two hundred recruit, 718 00:35:36,360 --> 00:35:39,800 Speaker 6: and now he's you know, stealing the Big ten, and 719 00:35:40,800 --> 00:35:42,759 Speaker 6: you know he theoretically has risen to be a top 720 00:35:42,800 --> 00:35:44,680 Speaker 6: ten guy Halliburton. I mean, you look at his Iowa 721 00:35:44,760 --> 00:35:48,440 Speaker 6: State career. No one would have pegged him to be this. 722 00:35:48,800 --> 00:35:52,600 Speaker 6: So that's where I think this trade is so much 723 00:35:52,680 --> 00:35:55,319 Speaker 6: unnote and I'm fascinated by. I mean, you know, again, 724 00:35:55,360 --> 00:35:59,360 Speaker 6: I've not that I'm watching every Clipper game, but Zubots 725 00:35:59,640 --> 00:36:03,840 Speaker 6: has just own the Pacers in his career, and I 726 00:36:03,960 --> 00:36:08,239 Speaker 6: find that so fascinating. Of like, if he didn't, I mean, 727 00:36:08,280 --> 00:36:12,000 Speaker 6: he dominated Miles Turner and it's kind of funny how 728 00:36:12,080 --> 00:36:16,640 Speaker 6: like now he's here doing really the exact opposite. Now, 729 00:36:17,480 --> 00:36:19,720 Speaker 6: we've talked about rebounding for the Pacers for a decade. 730 00:36:19,960 --> 00:36:21,680 Speaker 6: I mean I can remember being at the Pacers golf 731 00:36:21,719 --> 00:36:24,640 Speaker 6: outing over the brickyard one year. Nate McMillan's talking to 732 00:36:25,000 --> 00:36:27,840 Speaker 6: season ticket members and corporate people and he's like rebounding, 733 00:36:27,920 --> 00:36:30,880 Speaker 6: rebound and rebounding, and that's what three coaches ago, and 734 00:36:31,000 --> 00:36:32,960 Speaker 6: that has been the constant, and that's what Zobots is 735 00:36:33,000 --> 00:36:34,600 Speaker 6: going to bring. He is going to be an elite 736 00:36:34,680 --> 00:36:37,040 Speaker 6: level rebounder. He's going to be a guy that can 737 00:36:37,080 --> 00:36:39,400 Speaker 6: finish around the basket, I would say, much more efficiently 738 00:36:39,680 --> 00:36:42,560 Speaker 6: than Miles Turner. Now, the flip side is he's not 739 00:36:42,719 --> 00:36:46,640 Speaker 6: going to stretch the floor. And you know, if you 740 00:36:46,880 --> 00:36:50,680 Speaker 6: do recall when they traded for Pascal Siakam, what was 741 00:36:50,719 --> 00:36:52,840 Speaker 6: one of the first things Siaka mentioned about playing here 742 00:36:52,880 --> 00:36:56,479 Speaker 6: in Indiana. I'm really looking forward to having Miles Turner 743 00:36:56,560 --> 00:37:00,279 Speaker 6: next to me because that's a five man that stretches floor. 744 00:37:00,400 --> 00:37:01,320 Speaker 6: That's not Zubots. 745 00:37:01,360 --> 00:37:01,440 Speaker 5: Now. 746 00:37:01,480 --> 00:37:04,840 Speaker 6: He does other things very well offensively. But you know, 747 00:37:04,920 --> 00:37:07,680 Speaker 6: those are some of the questions that I do think 748 00:37:08,040 --> 00:37:09,160 Speaker 6: you are curious about. 749 00:37:09,480 --> 00:37:12,200 Speaker 5: John m texting in can we get Haliburton's mom to 750 00:37:12,320 --> 00:37:14,600 Speaker 5: represent the pacers at the lottery show. 751 00:37:14,640 --> 00:37:15,880 Speaker 2: That might not be a bad way to go. 752 00:37:16,640 --> 00:37:17,439 Speaker 6: How about his dad. 753 00:37:19,080 --> 00:37:22,680 Speaker 5: Put them both out there. I like that, James Duncan 754 00:37:23,360 --> 00:37:25,359 Speaker 5: texting in with the pacers. Lucky you already know we're 755 00:37:25,360 --> 00:37:27,200 Speaker 5: going to be the fifth pick. I bet it right 756 00:37:27,320 --> 00:37:29,759 Speaker 5: now if I could. People are not optimistic. 757 00:37:30,400 --> 00:37:33,239 Speaker 7: Well, yeah, I got this text from a source. In 758 00:37:33,960 --> 00:37:38,799 Speaker 7: the response that I got asking about just the protections 759 00:37:38,840 --> 00:37:41,920 Speaker 7: on the pick, is it will be an anxious lottery 760 00:37:42,040 --> 00:37:43,359 Speaker 7: night excamation point? 761 00:37:44,040 --> 00:37:47,800 Speaker 6: Should they I'm asking the question, not answering it. I'm asking. 762 00:37:47,800 --> 00:37:50,400 Speaker 6: I'm asking it, and then I'm running. Should they have 763 00:37:50,560 --> 00:37:56,040 Speaker 6: just resigned Turner? You would have cost more money than 764 00:37:56,120 --> 00:37:59,880 Speaker 6: zuobots about eight ishmillion, So yeah, I want to acknowledge that, 765 00:38:00,120 --> 00:38:02,439 Speaker 6: but you would Now, let's say math probably the tacks 766 00:38:02,480 --> 00:38:06,399 Speaker 6: too right, right, Let's say Matthern walks, but you're keeping 767 00:38:06,440 --> 00:38:08,520 Speaker 6: your future first plural lee. 768 00:38:09,080 --> 00:38:11,680 Speaker 7: So you're saying, basically, if they swapped it, like if 769 00:38:11,760 --> 00:38:15,120 Speaker 7: Mathern had walked and you kept okay and you kept 770 00:38:15,160 --> 00:38:18,840 Speaker 7: Miles turning, you kept your picks. If you're asking me 771 00:38:19,200 --> 00:38:21,840 Speaker 7: right now today, that sounds like the better option. But 772 00:38:22,320 --> 00:38:25,120 Speaker 7: can't go back in time, right last night. 773 00:38:25,200 --> 00:38:28,719 Speaker 2: I guess in the afternoon yesterday, Rick Carlyle, I don't know. 774 00:38:28,840 --> 00:38:31,840 Speaker 5: Was he cheating on us guys by calling JMV yesterday. 775 00:38:32,480 --> 00:38:32,759 Speaker 10: I don't know. 776 00:38:32,840 --> 00:38:34,440 Speaker 7: Rick's been good to me. I can't say he was 777 00:38:34,480 --> 00:38:36,200 Speaker 7: cheating on him. He was giving the people what they need. 778 00:38:36,400 --> 00:38:38,759 Speaker 6: Yeah, in the marketing, I know, if we've earned the 779 00:38:38,800 --> 00:38:42,399 Speaker 6: right for our partner to be faithful to us, well. 780 00:38:42,320 --> 00:38:45,600 Speaker 2: He's almost that guy, don't have He's not ruled out 781 00:38:45,640 --> 00:38:46,719 Speaker 2: a road trip with you, Kevin. 782 00:38:46,880 --> 00:38:49,040 Speaker 6: Let's be honest. Have you seen how Jambs look lately? 783 00:38:49,400 --> 00:38:51,160 Speaker 6: I mean he's right behind you or here on the screen. 784 00:38:51,280 --> 00:38:52,839 Speaker 6: There's some worse side pieces out there. 785 00:38:54,520 --> 00:38:57,760 Speaker 5: I'll let you ponder that while we let you listening 786 00:38:57,840 --> 00:39:01,520 Speaker 5: to Rick Carlyle calling into JMV the first sixty seconds 787 00:39:01,640 --> 00:39:03,440 Speaker 5: or so of the things he had to say about 788 00:39:03,480 --> 00:39:03,880 Speaker 5: the trade. 789 00:39:04,200 --> 00:39:09,520 Speaker 10: With the departure of Miles Turner, we desperately need a quality, 790 00:39:09,960 --> 00:39:13,160 Speaker 10: high level starting center. We believe Zoobots is the top 791 00:39:13,239 --> 00:39:17,400 Speaker 10: ten center in the NBA. Conversations on this deal went 792 00:39:17,440 --> 00:39:21,239 Speaker 10: on for many days, and I would assume longer. This 793 00:39:21,400 --> 00:39:24,560 Speaker 10: is a great opportunity for all players involved. Ben has 794 00:39:24,600 --> 00:39:28,160 Speaker 10: grown so much as a player, Isaiah the same. I mean, 795 00:39:28,239 --> 00:39:32,120 Speaker 10: these guys are homegrown Indiana Pacer products. One guy's been 796 00:39:32,200 --> 00:39:34,319 Speaker 10: in his fifth year, one guy's in his fourth year. 797 00:39:34,719 --> 00:39:36,640 Speaker 2: And I'm proud to say that right now. 798 00:39:37,000 --> 00:39:39,960 Speaker 10: You know, as we speak, these two guys are in 799 00:39:40,080 --> 00:39:42,680 Speaker 10: the best possible position that they could be in to 800 00:39:42,840 --> 00:39:45,560 Speaker 10: move on to the next opportunity and really flourish. And 801 00:39:45,719 --> 00:39:48,759 Speaker 10: that's what we hope for them, And certainly we hope 802 00:39:48,800 --> 00:39:52,439 Speaker 10: the trade goes through and everything works out, but we're 803 00:39:52,480 --> 00:39:55,640 Speaker 10: excited to get Zubots and Kobe Brown's a young player 804 00:39:55,719 --> 00:39:57,520 Speaker 10: that people don't know a whole lot about, but this 805 00:39:57,560 --> 00:39:58,920 Speaker 10: would be a great opportunity for him. 806 00:40:00,200 --> 00:40:03,160 Speaker 6: One thing to note, there were some reports nationally, James, 807 00:40:03,200 --> 00:40:05,520 Speaker 6: I know if you saw this, that the Pacers tried 808 00:40:05,560 --> 00:40:08,440 Speaker 6: to trade for Walker Kessler of the Utah Jazz. I 809 00:40:08,560 --> 00:40:12,520 Speaker 6: believe the report from Chris Haynes was two unprotected first 810 00:40:12,640 --> 00:40:15,280 Speaker 6: round picks. I don't know if Matheren would have factored 811 00:40:15,320 --> 00:40:19,000 Speaker 6: into that deal. Kessler probably known as one of the 812 00:40:19,280 --> 00:40:23,440 Speaker 6: better young elite RIM protectors, currently out for the year 813 00:40:23,600 --> 00:40:25,600 Speaker 6: with a I think it was a shoulder injury maybe 814 00:40:26,280 --> 00:40:30,399 Speaker 6: with Utah there, but clearly they had center on their mind, 815 00:40:30,640 --> 00:40:34,840 Speaker 6: and we're ready to give up a lot, not just 816 00:40:34,920 --> 00:40:35,520 Speaker 6: for zobots. 817 00:40:35,680 --> 00:40:38,280 Speaker 7: I think this also says a message to Tyre's Halliburn, 818 00:40:38,400 --> 00:40:40,120 Speaker 7: letting them know, look, we believe in you, sure and 819 00:40:40,280 --> 00:40:43,200 Speaker 7: sure when you are back ready to hoop. Weren't be 820 00:40:43,239 --> 00:40:45,520 Speaker 7: ready to hoop for something meaningful when you are back 821 00:40:45,560 --> 00:40:47,480 Speaker 7: on the court. So I have to respect that and 822 00:40:47,680 --> 00:40:49,719 Speaker 7: shout Halliburton as well. I forgot to mention that in 823 00:40:49,800 --> 00:40:52,200 Speaker 7: the checkdown. What he had is I believe high school 824 00:40:52,280 --> 00:40:57,439 Speaker 7: jersey retired yesterday at Oshkosh North in Wisconsin.

How are you doing. 850 00:42:13,320 --> 00:42:16,440 Speaker 3: Good morning, gentlemen, and I look forward to hearing you 851 00:42:16,520 --> 00:42:18,799 Speaker 3: describe the military action of the Pacers in the next 852 00:42:18,840 --> 00:42:19,239 Speaker 3: two months. 853 00:42:19,840 --> 00:42:22,640 Speaker 5: Let's talk about the military action of the Indiana Pacers. 854 00:42:22,680 --> 00:42:24,560 Speaker 5: How would you describe it? Looking ahead? 855 00:42:25,560 --> 00:42:28,760 Speaker 3: I would describe it as one of my favorite James 856 00:42:28,840 --> 00:42:33,279 Speaker 3: Gardner movies from the early eighties. I would describe it 857 00:42:34,160 --> 00:42:39,400 Speaker 3: as the nickname for former Indiana Pacers forward Lasal Thompson. 858 00:42:40,280 --> 00:42:43,920 Speaker 3: I would describe it as how summiable of an Irish 859 00:42:44,160 --> 00:42:48,640 Speaker 3: you know accent, maybe pronounce the word thanks. I think 860 00:42:48,680 --> 00:42:51,879 Speaker 3: you get what I'm getting at here. It is tank time, 861 00:42:53,320 --> 00:42:55,040 Speaker 3: you know. I heard that It's gonna be a little 862 00:42:55,080 --> 00:42:58,880 Speaker 3: while before that beats the Zubots makes his PACER's debut 863 00:42:59,000 --> 00:43:01,480 Speaker 3: because he is on Paterna leave. I think they should 864 00:43:01,480 --> 00:43:04,000 Speaker 3: schedule that through April to fifteenth, just through tax season, 865 00:43:04,560 --> 00:43:06,600 Speaker 3: just to be ready, you know, and and make sure 866 00:43:06,600 --> 00:43:10,840 Speaker 3: everybody is properly you know, taxed and and things of 867 00:43:10,920 --> 00:43:14,240 Speaker 3: that nature. Now it is truly a race to the bottom, 868 00:43:14,800 --> 00:43:16,800 Speaker 3: because it should be a rocket right back to the 869 00:43:16,880 --> 00:43:18,480 Speaker 3: top of his basketball team next year. 870 00:43:18,680 --> 00:43:20,680 Speaker 7: So rig don't get me sorry on tax season, brother, 871 00:43:21,080 --> 00:43:23,920 Speaker 7: easily and one of my least favorite times of the year. 872 00:43:24,480 --> 00:43:28,640 Speaker 3: But imagine getting a paycheck from nine different people. There's 873 00:43:28,680 --> 00:43:30,480 Speaker 3: there's a blood letting in the Raketra household there. 874 00:43:30,640 --> 00:43:32,040 Speaker 7: I'll tell you what I got. I got a couple 875 00:43:32,080 --> 00:43:35,120 Speaker 7: of W two's that are waiting on me. But as 876 00:43:35,160 --> 00:43:38,120 Speaker 7: far as the Pacers go, when you look at the 877 00:43:38,680 --> 00:43:41,560 Speaker 7: I guess sappiness of the move because in theory, you 878 00:43:41,760 --> 00:43:45,200 Speaker 7: gave up your first round pick, but you also put 879 00:43:45,239 --> 00:43:47,640 Speaker 7: a lot of protections on it. How much do you 880 00:43:47,800 --> 00:43:52,000 Speaker 7: think Chad bu Cannon, Team GM and Kevin Pritchards, the 881 00:43:52,000 --> 00:43:55,480 Speaker 7: team president, have earned maybe some trust and some grace 882 00:43:55,560 --> 00:43:58,200 Speaker 7: here given what they've done in the past with other trades. 883 00:43:59,160 --> 00:44:01,279 Speaker 3: I was gonna say, I think they've done that by 884 00:44:01,880 --> 00:44:04,520 Speaker 3: I've virtue of the Pacers were a game away from 885 00:44:04,520 --> 00:44:08,440 Speaker 3: winning the World Championship in June before things went awry 886 00:44:08,600 --> 00:44:11,440 Speaker 3: from an injury standpoint, repeatedly over the course of the 887 00:44:11,560 --> 00:44:15,560 Speaker 3: last nine months. No, listen, this was sending and you know, 888 00:44:15,880 --> 00:44:17,600 Speaker 3: an asset that you're going to get nothing back for 889 00:44:17,719 --> 00:44:21,800 Speaker 3: in the off season, you know, getting something in return, 890 00:44:22,440 --> 00:44:25,480 Speaker 3: knowing that the way the Miles Turner situation played out 891 00:44:25,520 --> 00:44:28,959 Speaker 3: in the summer completely blew up on you and you had. 892 00:44:28,920 --> 00:44:29,560 Speaker 5: To remedy that. 893 00:44:29,800 --> 00:44:31,840 Speaker 3: And so you went out and got a piece that 894 00:44:32,000 --> 00:44:35,000 Speaker 3: both from a skill standpoint and from a financial standpoint, 895 00:44:35,520 --> 00:44:39,120 Speaker 3: it's exactly what you are needing now. I think we 896 00:44:39,280 --> 00:44:41,680 Speaker 3: all kind of when we first saw the details the 897 00:44:41,719 --> 00:44:44,919 Speaker 3: trade and you hear that this year's first round pick 898 00:44:45,719 --> 00:44:48,399 Speaker 3: could be going to the Clippers if it doesn't meet 899 00:44:48,480 --> 00:44:51,200 Speaker 3: certain parameters, you kind of had to brace for impact 900 00:44:51,239 --> 00:44:52,640 Speaker 3: when you read that for the first time, and you 901 00:44:52,680 --> 00:44:55,080 Speaker 3: went back and said, all right, one through four stays 902 00:44:55,120 --> 00:44:58,840 Speaker 3: here ten past years, stays here, got it so clearly 903 00:44:59,040 --> 00:45:01,600 Speaker 3: the PACER's breast. I think the top four players the 904 00:45:01,680 --> 00:45:04,200 Speaker 3: draft are pretty special, and there is a cliff or 905 00:45:04,239 --> 00:45:06,560 Speaker 3: there is a tier that once you go, you know 906 00:45:06,680 --> 00:45:09,960 Speaker 3: from four to five. And so this is this is 907 00:45:10,000 --> 00:45:12,360 Speaker 3: potentially having your cake and eat it too, where you 908 00:45:12,440 --> 00:45:15,200 Speaker 3: get your center position fixed, you love the top seven 909 00:45:15,239 --> 00:45:19,520 Speaker 3: or eight players your rotation, and maybe, just maybe you 910 00:45:19,680 --> 00:45:23,640 Speaker 3: end up getting a remarkably dynamic young talent and a 911 00:45:23,760 --> 00:45:25,920 Speaker 3: draft that those that follow it closer than I do 912 00:45:26,400 --> 00:45:28,080 Speaker 3: think might be the best of the generation. 913 00:45:28,480 --> 00:45:31,080 Speaker 6: Greg Raigstraw, of course he's with us here. A busy 914 00:45:31,160 --> 00:45:32,759 Speaker 6: night for boys hoops. We'll get to it in just 915 00:45:32,840 --> 00:45:35,879 Speaker 6: a second. Last night girls got sectional. Hopefully the mother 916 00:45:36,000 --> 00:45:38,960 Speaker 6: nature issues well, I guess stays north of us, but 917 00:45:39,440 --> 00:45:42,040 Speaker 6: obviously unpeck some of the state here with some snow 918 00:45:42,160 --> 00:45:44,800 Speaker 6: this morning, I do want to shift gears over to 919 00:45:44,840 --> 00:45:47,000 Speaker 6: the Colts. Late last night rake out of an and 920 00:45:47,120 --> 00:45:49,520 Speaker 6: Terry does get into the Hall of Fame. Frankly, I 921 00:45:49,560 --> 00:45:51,480 Speaker 6: thought he should have been a first balloder, but nonetheless 922 00:45:51,520 --> 00:45:54,319 Speaker 6: he's in on the second ballot for a seventh straight year. 923 00:45:54,400 --> 00:45:56,600 Speaker 6: Reggie Wayne doesn't get the call, and it doesn't sound 924 00:45:56,640 --> 00:46:00,000 Speaker 6: like he's close. Mike Chappell reported he did not even 925 00:46:00,200 --> 00:46:04,040 Speaker 6: make the top ten after that initial cut down to fifteen. 926 00:46:04,800 --> 00:46:07,680 Speaker 6: Why do you think Wayne is viewed in such Again, 927 00:46:08,040 --> 00:46:11,160 Speaker 6: I say negative light. I mean that when we're trying 928 00:46:11,200 --> 00:46:13,360 Speaker 6: to cut down to an actual Hall of Fame class. 929 00:46:15,280 --> 00:46:16,560 Speaker 11: I don't have a good answer for that. 930 00:46:17,000 --> 00:46:19,879 Speaker 3: But obviously we're also biased about it because we saw 931 00:46:19,960 --> 00:46:23,839 Speaker 3: the entirety of Reggie's career here in Indianapolis. I think 932 00:46:23,880 --> 00:46:27,480 Speaker 3: in this case he's almost penalized, you know, play with 933 00:46:27,560 --> 00:46:30,000 Speaker 3: a great quarterback for the first you know, ten years 934 00:46:30,040 --> 00:46:32,359 Speaker 3: of his career, and you know, and then he got 935 00:46:32,400 --> 00:46:35,480 Speaker 3: Andrew Luck obviously for the last three. So I don't 936 00:46:35,520 --> 00:46:38,759 Speaker 3: have a good answer to it other than ignorance. And 937 00:46:38,920 --> 00:46:44,800 Speaker 3: oftentimes we blame, you know, conspiracy, when it's incompetence that 938 00:46:44,880 --> 00:46:47,759 Speaker 3: we should be blaming Reggie. Wayne is absolutely a Hall 939 00:46:47,800 --> 00:46:50,279 Speaker 3: of Famer. He may have to go now through kind 940 00:46:50,280 --> 00:46:53,400 Speaker 3: of the Senior Committee or whatever it is being called, 941 00:46:53,760 --> 00:46:56,400 Speaker 3: because again, as more new names get out of the ballot, 942 00:46:56,840 --> 00:46:58,320 Speaker 3: I'm not sure that his name is going to be 943 00:46:58,360 --> 00:47:01,560 Speaker 3: called anytime soon. He seemingly had a run on wide 944 00:47:01,640 --> 00:47:04,360 Speaker 3: receivers for a while, and now there has been some 945 00:47:04,520 --> 00:47:08,320 Speaker 3: pushback on that. But again I'm biased because because not 946 00:47:08,400 --> 00:47:11,000 Speaker 3: only did I cover Reggie, but much like UKB, I 947 00:47:11,120 --> 00:47:14,560 Speaker 3: know him personally, and I'm a big fan of Reggieaying 948 00:47:14,560 --> 00:47:17,240 Speaker 3: the person as much as Reggie Waying the wide receivers. 949 00:47:17,280 --> 00:47:18,920 Speaker 3: So I'm all for him being a Hall of Famer. 950 00:47:19,200 --> 00:47:21,279 Speaker 3: I think it's gonna take a little while for it happens. 951 00:47:20,960 --> 00:47:23,520 Speaker 6: Though, Okay mentioned busy night of boys hoop saw Matt 952 00:47:23,560 --> 00:47:26,279 Speaker 6: Painter was in the building there to watch Asaiah Hill 953 00:47:26,400 --> 00:47:29,640 Speaker 6: over Price some others over at Pike and Ben Davis. 954 00:47:29,760 --> 00:47:32,879 Speaker 6: I believe you had Carmel and Llen. Did I see 955 00:47:32,920 --> 00:47:35,560 Speaker 6: Fishers got a scare last night? Again they did. 956 00:47:35,600 --> 00:47:38,000 Speaker 3: They have to go to overtime, And it's the related 957 00:47:38,040 --> 00:47:39,960 Speaker 3: it's a long ago third kind of game that somebody 958 00:47:40,000 --> 00:47:43,759 Speaker 3: has played them close, you know, since mid December. And 959 00:47:44,480 --> 00:47:46,799 Speaker 3: the reason I give that line of demarcation is that's 960 00:47:46,840 --> 00:47:49,960 Speaker 3: when Jason Gardner Junior got hurt. Was the game against 961 00:47:49,960 --> 00:47:53,600 Speaker 3: Hambleton's South Eastern. So yes, Westfield played them very close 962 00:47:53,680 --> 00:47:56,560 Speaker 3: and took them to overtime with Fishers ended up winning 963 00:47:56,560 --> 00:47:59,680 Speaker 3: that game by two. So that game was of note, 964 00:48:00,160 --> 00:48:01,960 Speaker 3: But yeah, I had Carmel and l N and you know, 965 00:48:02,120 --> 00:48:05,839 Speaker 3: Carmel had lost your three consecutive games at home, all 966 00:48:05,920 --> 00:48:08,960 Speaker 3: two teams ranked above them in the state of Indiana, 967 00:48:09,360 --> 00:48:12,120 Speaker 3: and finally Bucks that trend with their sixty to forty 968 00:48:12,160 --> 00:48:14,440 Speaker 3: three victory over Laurence orthanid. 969 00:48:14,080 --> 00:48:17,880 Speaker 5: Ago Greg Greg Shraw joining us on the Payloff Slickers 970 00:48:17,920 --> 00:48:21,279 Speaker 5: hotline right now. Thoughts on Gordon Ayward being honored last night. 971 00:48:21,320 --> 00:48:24,359 Speaker 5: It is high school alma mater, Brownsburg where he led 972 00:48:24,440 --> 00:48:26,040 Speaker 5: them to I think it was a two thousand and 973 00:48:26,040 --> 00:48:27,560 Speaker 5: eight state championship. 974 00:48:27,600 --> 00:48:29,799 Speaker 3: Correct, and I feel all that was eighteen years ago. 975 00:48:30,719 --> 00:48:34,200 Speaker 3: So goodan Brownsburg for recognizing Gordon. Obviously, he kind of 976 00:48:34,200 --> 00:48:36,440 Speaker 3: had to wait till his you know playing days for 977 00:48:36,600 --> 00:48:38,120 Speaker 3: over with to kind of get him back unless we 978 00:48:38,160 --> 00:48:40,200 Speaker 3: gonna do that, you know over kind of an NBA 979 00:48:40,239 --> 00:48:44,080 Speaker 3: All Star weekend. But one of the great moments of 980 00:48:44,120 --> 00:48:47,560 Speaker 3: Indiana high school basketball history the shot that he hit 981 00:48:47,719 --> 00:48:51,160 Speaker 3: on the on the long distance pass to get past 982 00:48:51,200 --> 00:48:52,919 Speaker 3: married in the four A Championship game. 983 00:48:54,000 --> 00:48:57,480 Speaker 7: I'll tell you this, Rake, when you look at some 984 00:48:57,719 --> 00:49:00,839 Speaker 7: of the talent around here and boys basketball this year 985 00:49:01,920 --> 00:49:04,359 Speaker 7: and the way Fishers just continues to roll, at least 986 00:49:04,400 --> 00:49:07,440 Speaker 7: with their regular season winning streak. I mean, I know 987 00:49:07,520 --> 00:49:09,640 Speaker 7: people accept them to bloo every team out, but to 988 00:49:10,120 --> 00:49:12,880 Speaker 7: win some of these games close fashion, What does that 989 00:49:12,960 --> 00:49:15,080 Speaker 7: say about what they have built as far as just 990 00:49:15,120 --> 00:49:17,680 Speaker 7: like kind of their mental fortitude, because you look at 991 00:49:18,160 --> 00:49:20,400 Speaker 7: who they have and yeah, they have a lot of talent, 992 00:49:20,560 --> 00:49:24,320 Speaker 7: but they're not like Greg Odin and Mike Conley, you 993 00:49:24,400 --> 00:49:26,160 Speaker 7: know what I mean, Like they have you know, a 994 00:49:26,280 --> 00:49:28,200 Speaker 7: different level of talent. It kind of reminds me in 995 00:49:28,239 --> 00:49:31,200 Speaker 7: a way, perhaps the Ben Davis team from a couple 996 00:49:31,200 --> 00:49:31,680 Speaker 7: of years ago. 997 00:49:32,560 --> 00:49:35,600 Speaker 3: Right, well, I had Fishers on Saturday night when they 998 00:49:35,680 --> 00:49:38,000 Speaker 3: won at Carmel by three, and it was the first 999 00:49:38,040 --> 00:49:40,840 Speaker 3: time I had had that is early December. And so 1000 00:49:41,040 --> 00:49:43,760 Speaker 3: in that time you added a player in Ethan Hillsman 1001 00:49:44,080 --> 00:49:46,239 Speaker 3: young man that transferred in from the Chicago area and 1002 00:49:46,320 --> 00:49:49,880 Speaker 3: started playing right around Christmas time. But what struck me, 1003 00:49:50,080 --> 00:49:52,560 Speaker 3: and it makes sense when you think about it, we're 1004 00:49:52,640 --> 00:49:54,480 Speaker 3: kind of what the guys say, four or five, six, 1005 00:49:54,600 --> 00:49:56,279 Speaker 3: seven at eight on the roster were able to do 1006 00:49:57,000 --> 00:50:00,600 Speaker 3: because when the season began, they had you know, Zachary 1007 00:50:00,640 --> 00:50:03,200 Speaker 3: and Gardner, the duo that seems like I've been there forever, 1008 00:50:03,640 --> 00:50:05,080 Speaker 3: but have now been a part of this three year 1009 00:50:05,200 --> 00:50:07,719 Speaker 3: run that are combined seventy eight and two. Then you 1010 00:50:07,800 --> 00:50:09,920 Speaker 3: bring in Ky McGrew from Lawrence Northy, like, hey, those 1011 00:50:09,920 --> 00:50:12,640 Speaker 3: are three phenomenal players and three kids that will be 1012 00:50:12,719 --> 00:50:15,719 Speaker 3: Indiana All Stars this year or next. Everybody else was 1013 00:50:15,880 --> 00:50:20,359 Speaker 3: very inexperienced, but guys like John John Lum and Levi 1014 00:50:20,560 --> 00:50:24,000 Speaker 3: Walker and the Breelan brothers all have stepped up and 1015 00:50:24,680 --> 00:50:27,840 Speaker 3: kind of up their game and just understandably so have 1016 00:50:28,000 --> 00:50:30,840 Speaker 3: kind of grown into roles where they were fringe rotation 1017 00:50:31,000 --> 00:50:33,200 Speaker 3: players last year. Our kids that were playing on the 1018 00:50:33,320 --> 00:50:36,680 Speaker 3: JV so in watching Fishers play twice early and then 1019 00:50:36,680 --> 00:50:39,480 Speaker 3: seeing them again in late January. It was what those 1020 00:50:39,560 --> 00:50:42,520 Speaker 3: other guys were doing that they weren't doing at the 1021 00:50:42,520 --> 00:50:44,960 Speaker 3: start of the season that really kind of caught my attention. 1022 00:50:45,520 --> 00:50:48,080 Speaker 5: Greg Hall of Fame announced last night for the twenty 1023 00:50:48,160 --> 00:50:51,120 Speaker 5: twenty sixth class Adam d and Tiri and Drew Brees 1024 00:50:51,280 --> 00:50:55,400 Speaker 5: in with some local ties. Nothing there happening yet for 1025 00:50:55,520 --> 00:50:58,560 Speaker 5: Reggie Wayne and Frank Gore. What are your thoughts on 1026 00:50:58,600 --> 00:50:59,440 Speaker 5: what you saw last night? 1027 00:51:00,160 --> 00:51:02,520 Speaker 3: You know, again we're we're getting to this this kind 1028 00:51:02,560 --> 00:51:07,080 Speaker 3: of uh, you know, back hall of players, because you know, 1029 00:51:07,200 --> 00:51:10,160 Speaker 3: this class had some pretty notables in terms of first 1030 00:51:10,200 --> 00:51:13,759 Speaker 3: time eliltiple guys, and next year you probably play say 1031 00:51:13,760 --> 00:51:16,440 Speaker 3: a similar thing. You know, it's it's interesting we have 1032 00:51:16,560 --> 00:51:20,239 Speaker 3: we have claimed Vin Terry having played more of his 1033 00:51:20,360 --> 00:51:23,719 Speaker 3: career here than he did in New England. But at 1034 00:51:23,719 --> 00:51:26,320 Speaker 3: the same time, you know, Frank Gore will get in 1035 00:51:26,480 --> 00:51:29,320 Speaker 3: at some point in time just because number, his numbers 1036 00:51:29,400 --> 00:51:33,560 Speaker 3: and his longevity are so staggeringly good. How much will 1037 00:51:33,600 --> 00:51:36,040 Speaker 3: Colts fans embrace Frank knowing that the time that he 1038 00:51:36,120 --> 00:51:40,520 Speaker 3: played here frankly Colts weren't very good, and so when 1039 00:51:40,600 --> 00:51:43,160 Speaker 3: he makes it in, it'll be very curious to see 1040 00:51:43,920 --> 00:51:47,120 Speaker 3: exactly the uh, the the level of hug that Central 1041 00:51:47,160 --> 00:51:49,640 Speaker 3: Indiana gives him to claim him as one of their own, 1042 00:51:49,719 --> 00:51:52,400 Speaker 3: knowing that you know, primarily his days in the National 1043 00:51:52,440 --> 00:51:54,759 Speaker 3: Football League or still be identified as more of a 1044 00:51:54,800 --> 00:51:57,239 Speaker 3: San Francisco forty nine er than anything else. 1045 00:51:58,360 --> 00:52:00,760 Speaker 2: Always good to talk to you, buddy, Have a great weekend. 1046 00:52:00,840 --> 00:52:02,120 Speaker 2: And what's your schedule look like? 1047 00:52:02,160 --> 00:52:02,399 Speaker 11: Again? 1048 00:52:03,400 --> 00:52:07,200 Speaker 3: Remarkably a night off tonight because of the schedule changing 1049 00:52:07,960 --> 00:52:10,240 Speaker 3: because the girls the boys games are kind of featured 1050 00:52:10,280 --> 00:52:13,399 Speaker 3: on Thursday night and Saturday afternoon on Girls Sectional week. 1051 00:52:13,960 --> 00:52:17,600 Speaker 3: I will have the Sectional final from Carmel, likely HC 1052 00:52:17,760 --> 00:52:20,200 Speaker 3: against one of Carmel or Zion's will tomorrow night at 1053 00:52:20,200 --> 00:52:20,800 Speaker 3: seven o'clock. 1054 00:52:21,560 --> 00:52:24,040 Speaker 5: Sounds good, buddy, have a good one, enjoyant, stay safe 1055 00:52:24,080 --> 00:52:24,839 Speaker 5: and we'll talk to you soon. 1056 00:52:24,960 --> 00:52:26,560 Speaker 11: Thanks Ray, Thanks Bett, you got it, guys. 1057 00:52:26,680 --> 00:52:28,880 Speaker 2: Greg greg stra joining us on the pay Less Liquors 1058 00:52:28,920 --> 00:52:29,919 Speaker 2: Hotline right now. 1059 00:52:31,320 --> 00:52:33,600 Speaker 5: Yeah, when you start, you start feeling older when you 1060 00:52:33,640 --> 00:52:36,759 Speaker 5: see like Gordon Hayward is out of the NBA now 1061 00:52:37,000 --> 00:52:39,600 Speaker 5: and it was two thousand and eight when he hit 1062 00:52:39,760 --> 00:52:41,200 Speaker 5: that shot for Brownsburg. 1063 00:52:41,520 --> 00:52:42,920 Speaker 6: Never good sign when you need to remind me of 1064 00:52:42,920 --> 00:52:45,960 Speaker 6: the year I graduated high school. James Boyd, I know 1065 00:52:46,000 --> 00:52:49,680 Speaker 6: you got to run here in a few the aspect 1066 00:52:49,880 --> 00:52:54,200 Speaker 6: to this trade you liked the most, and then your 1067 00:52:54,239 --> 00:52:55,560 Speaker 6: biggest question about the trade. 1068 00:52:57,120 --> 00:52:57,799 Speaker 4: I like that. 1069 00:52:59,840 --> 00:53:04,520 Speaker 7: The the player is only twenty eight, very durable, and 1070 00:53:04,640 --> 00:53:08,040 Speaker 7: the contract is very team friendly. I know NBA money 1071 00:53:08,120 --> 00:53:09,799 Speaker 7: is crazy now, so people look at the raw number, 1072 00:53:09,840 --> 00:53:11,399 Speaker 7: it's like, oh my gosh, he makes twenty million dollars 1073 00:53:11,440 --> 00:53:13,840 Speaker 7: too much for an NBA salary for a center of 1074 00:53:13,920 --> 00:53:16,719 Speaker 7: his caliber. That is a very fine contract. Over the 1075 00:53:16,760 --> 00:53:19,760 Speaker 7: next few years. And then the part that I probably 1076 00:53:19,800 --> 00:53:22,240 Speaker 7: don't like or gives me the most pause is obviously 1077 00:53:23,000 --> 00:53:27,040 Speaker 7: the possibility of not getting that twenty twenty six first 1078 00:53:27,120 --> 00:53:30,799 Speaker 7: round pick, because you basically made it a coin flip 1079 00:53:30,960 --> 00:53:34,319 Speaker 7: at least right now, to land the number, the top 1080 00:53:34,400 --> 00:53:36,640 Speaker 7: four pick, or to not have that pick. I think 1081 00:53:36,680 --> 00:53:38,759 Speaker 7: that's a big, big difference in how you, you know, 1082 00:53:38,880 --> 00:53:42,120 Speaker 7: go about your future. I mean, it's all great if 1083 00:53:42,160 --> 00:53:44,239 Speaker 7: you get that top four pick. If you do not, 1084 00:53:45,239 --> 00:53:47,759 Speaker 7: then obviously that's that's a blow to you for sure. 1085 00:53:49,080 --> 00:53:50,520 Speaker 2: Where are you ahead of this morning? You're doing something 1086 00:53:50,560 --> 00:53:52,080 Speaker 2: kind of fun and cool today, right, Yeah. 1087 00:53:52,120 --> 00:53:55,760 Speaker 7: Shout out to my guy, Bryson Hill over at Ben Davis. 1088 00:53:55,880 --> 00:53:59,279 Speaker 7: He is a young broadcaster.

Just tuning in 1124 00:55:26,280 --> 00:55:28,560 Speaker 5: your thoughts on the big guy coming over to be 1125 00:55:28,640 --> 00:55:30,719 Speaker 5: with the Indiana Pacers and how do they play this 1126 00:55:30,920 --> 00:55:31,640 Speaker 5: the rest of the year. 1127 00:55:31,920 --> 00:55:37,040 Speaker 7: James, Well, like I said, I like the trade. I 1128 00:55:37,160 --> 00:55:43,080 Speaker 7: think that it's aggressive, and I think beyond the implications 1129 00:55:43,120 --> 00:55:46,719 Speaker 7: of where the ping pong balls fall come Mother's Day, 1130 00:55:46,920 --> 00:55:49,080 Speaker 7: and lord knows, a lot of Pacers fans wanted to 1131 00:55:49,120 --> 00:55:51,560 Speaker 7: be in that top four. Beyond that, I think you 1132 00:55:51,600 --> 00:55:53,600 Speaker 7: sent a message to Tyres Halliburn and the rest of 1133 00:55:53,640 --> 00:55:57,520 Speaker 7: your team, tyree'se Pascal and others. Look, man, this was 1134 00:55:57,640 --> 00:56:01,000 Speaker 7: a one off year, going to go for it again 1135 00:56:01,120 --> 00:56:03,640 Speaker 7: as soon as Halliburton is healthy. So I know he 1136 00:56:03,760 --> 00:56:06,000 Speaker 7: asked you very excited about that opportunity. And I get 1137 00:56:06,080 --> 00:56:09,880 Speaker 7: that Zubots doesn't shoot the ball like Miles Turner a 1138 00:56:09,960 --> 00:56:13,360 Speaker 7: few centers actually do, but I still think the offense 1139 00:56:13,400 --> 00:56:16,040 Speaker 7: will be very, very good with Zubots considering how good 1140 00:56:16,040 --> 00:56:17,560 Speaker 7: of a screener he is, how good of a roller 1141 00:56:17,600 --> 00:56:20,239 Speaker 7: he is he's finishing around the basket. I just think 1142 00:56:20,280 --> 00:56:21,320 Speaker 7: it'll look different. 1143 00:56:21,480 --> 00:56:21,640 Speaker 6: You know. 1144 00:56:21,880 --> 00:56:24,520 Speaker 7: Maybe the process isn't the same, Jeff, but when we 1145 00:56:24,600 --> 00:56:26,600 Speaker 7: get done cooking up in the kitchen, you'll like the meal. 1146 00:56:26,840 --> 00:56:29,320 Speaker 5: You think that Tyre's Halliburton is looking forward to the 1147 00:56:29,320 --> 00:56:31,960 Speaker 5: pick and roll possibilities with zbots right now. 1148 00:56:32,000 --> 00:56:35,640 Speaker 6: He yeah, wall, well you're not moving that, dude. Yeah, 1149 00:56:35,680 --> 00:56:38,600 Speaker 6: I mean from a picking yeah, it's pick and roll, 1150 00:56:38,640 --> 00:56:40,880 Speaker 6: you know. Again, it was picking pop with Turner and 1151 00:56:41,000 --> 00:56:45,719 Speaker 6: now it's the role with Zubots. So yeah, I do 1152 00:56:45,840 --> 00:56:49,440 Speaker 6: think there is some intrigue there, certainly, And you know, 1153 00:56:49,480 --> 00:56:52,080 Speaker 6: from a starting lineup standpoint, I mean again, the biggest 1154 00:56:52,120 --> 00:56:56,360 Speaker 6: thing he's going to bring is an actual paint presence 1155 00:56:56,400 --> 00:56:59,560 Speaker 6: with physicality, and I would argue it's been quite some 1156 00:56:59,719 --> 00:57:01,840 Speaker 6: time since the Pacers had that. Miles Turner is a 1157 00:57:01,920 --> 00:57:05,080 Speaker 6: very skilled individual, but he ain't that I mean, honestly, 1158 00:57:05,120 --> 00:57:06,440 Speaker 6: think a little old school. He was a little bit 1159 00:57:06,440 --> 00:57:10,040 Speaker 6: of a throwback center is what Zubats is. And again, 1160 00:57:10,080 --> 00:57:12,880 Speaker 6: from a rebounding standpoint, you know, creating extra possessions from 1161 00:57:12,920 --> 00:57:15,880 Speaker 6: an offensive rebounder. You know that is going to be 1162 00:57:15,920 --> 00:57:18,480 Speaker 6: an element to his game defensively. Is a guy that's 1163 00:57:18,520 --> 00:57:21,160 Speaker 6: been on some all defensive teams and you know he's 1164 00:57:21,200 --> 00:57:24,720 Speaker 6: not some you know whatever weak side shot blocker, crazy 1165 00:57:25,400 --> 00:57:28,360 Speaker 6: that type of presence, but just resistance and you know 1166 00:57:28,440 --> 00:57:31,320 Speaker 6: we Monday night to me was just so fitting. And James, 1167 00:57:31,400 --> 00:57:33,200 Speaker 6: you you hit the nail on the head very early 1168 00:57:33,280 --> 00:57:36,320 Speaker 6: Tuesday morning, Like you watch that game against the Rockets. 1169 00:57:36,560 --> 00:57:38,920 Speaker 6: Benedick Matheren has arguably the best game he's had in 1170 00:57:38,960 --> 00:57:45,280 Speaker 6: the Pacers uniform. And the Pacers also look like you know, 1171 00:57:45,560 --> 00:57:47,600 Speaker 6: Mark Dyton could have been playing center for them and 1172 00:57:47,680 --> 00:57:50,800 Speaker 6: offered the same amount of resistance against miss Mark. 1173 00:57:50,840 --> 00:57:54,840 Speaker 7: You got six fouls in your brother absolutely, how long 1174 00:57:54,840 --> 00:57:56,760 Speaker 7: do you think of how long do you think it'd 1175 00:57:56,800 --> 00:57:57,240 Speaker 7: take care. 1176 00:57:57,080 --> 00:58:00,760 Speaker 8: Of Mark's wrestling background? Hell yeah, have a bark in there. 1177 00:58:01,040 --> 00:58:03,640 Speaker 8: How many how many minute in the Boston Crab? How 1178 00:58:03,680 --> 00:58:05,680 Speaker 8: many minutes does he play before he fouls out? 1179 00:58:05,720 --> 00:58:05,919 Speaker 11: Though? 1180 00:58:06,240 --> 00:58:06,439 Speaker 2: Three? 1181 00:58:06,720 --> 00:58:06,919 Speaker 3: Four? 1182 00:58:08,160 --> 00:58:11,720 Speaker 6: With how some of the Pacers right on you there, 1183 00:58:12,280 --> 00:58:13,959 Speaker 6: So basically. 1184 00:58:13,720 --> 00:58:15,000 Speaker 5: One media time out to the next. 1185 00:58:15,200 --> 00:58:18,280 Speaker 6: You're not gonna get bullied like you got bullied on Monday. 1186 00:58:18,320 --> 00:58:20,240 Speaker 6: I mean you flat out got bullied. I mean, sending 1187 00:58:20,240 --> 00:58:22,080 Speaker 6: Good out a career game against you like that stuff 1188 00:58:22,200 --> 00:58:23,760 Speaker 6: is not going to happen. 1189 00:58:23,880 --> 00:58:25,640 Speaker 2: So he got thrown out of a game last night, 1190 00:58:26,160 --> 00:58:27,600 Speaker 2: didsh and Good? Yeah, he was well. 1191 00:58:27,880 --> 00:58:29,479 Speaker 6: Him and Maddison got into it Monday night. 1192 00:58:29,480 --> 00:58:31,960 Speaker 5: Saying nasty stuff to one of the female referees and 1193 00:58:32,040 --> 00:58:32,800 Speaker 5: they threw him out. 1194 00:58:33,040 --> 00:58:34,880 Speaker 6: By the way, I will say, just an observation that 1195 00:58:34,960 --> 00:58:37,080 Speaker 6: had yesterday being at PACER's practice again, I'm not on 1196 00:58:37,160 --> 00:58:39,200 Speaker 6: the daily beat, Dustin to Pierre Ac Tony East aar 1197 00:58:39,320 --> 00:58:43,520 Speaker 6: and they did happen to see Isaiah Jackson walking out 1198 00:58:43,880 --> 00:58:46,440 Speaker 6: of the facility and just shout out to Isaiah Jackson, 1199 00:58:46,440 --> 00:58:48,600 Speaker 6: who went out of his way to go and talk 1200 00:58:48,680 --> 00:58:52,240 Speaker 6: to Dustin and Tony, and you could clear there's a 1201 00:58:52,360 --> 00:58:56,440 Speaker 6: very mutual respect with that and Isaiah Jackson. You know, 1202 00:58:56,480 --> 00:58:58,280 Speaker 6: we don't really talk about him. I mean that was 1203 00:58:58,360 --> 00:59:00,560 Speaker 6: a top twenty five draft pick. Yeah, it was a 1204 00:59:00,600 --> 00:59:03,200 Speaker 6: guy that was part of that Kentucky group that you're 1205 00:59:03,200 --> 00:59:05,520 Speaker 6: always kind of like, well, look at some of these 1206 00:59:05,600 --> 00:59:07,280 Speaker 6: Kentucky players and what they do in college or was 1207 00:59:07,320 --> 00:59:09,280 Speaker 6: what they do the NBA, and it's pulling opposite and 1208 00:59:09,360 --> 00:59:12,840 Speaker 6: obviously he dealt with the torn Achilles and Rick Carlisle 1209 00:59:12,960 --> 00:59:16,600 Speaker 6: was always very high on Isaiah Jackson there. So Ben 1210 00:59:16,720 --> 00:59:20,040 Speaker 6: mcmatheren is going to get plenty of opportunities to dominate 1211 00:59:20,080 --> 00:59:22,520 Speaker 6: the ball out there in LA. But Isaiah Jackson I 1212 00:59:22,640 --> 00:59:25,880 Speaker 6: don't pretend to know him well at all, but always 1213 00:59:25,880 --> 00:59:26,800 Speaker 6: seemed like a really good dude. 1214 00:59:27,360 --> 00:59:29,880 Speaker 7: I can speak to that for sure. Very solid dude, 1215 00:59:29,960 --> 00:59:32,720 Speaker 7: win lose whatever, always available to the meet, at least 1216 00:59:32,720 --> 00:59:36,520 Speaker 7: in my experiences covering the team, and someone who never 1217 00:59:36,640 --> 00:59:38,760 Speaker 7: really made it more than what it is. By that, 1218 00:59:38,880 --> 00:59:41,280 Speaker 7: I mean sometimes they can get a little you know, 1219 00:59:41,680 --> 00:59:43,800 Speaker 7: head buddy when it comes to the media and player 1220 00:59:43,840 --> 00:59:46,040 Speaker 7: that the frustrating losses or whatever the case, maybe even 1221 00:59:46,120 --> 00:59:49,080 Speaker 7: him an injury, but very good dude, I mean even 1222 00:59:49,120 --> 00:59:52,160 Speaker 7: throughout the whole finals run last year. Just assault the 1223 00:59:52,240 --> 00:59:52,640 Speaker 7: Earth guy. 1224 00:59:53,440 --> 00:59:57,360 Speaker 5: Here's one oddity that kind of demonstrates just how volatile 1225 00:59:57,400 --> 01:00:00,320 Speaker 5: the NBA can be sometimes with player movement and everything else. 1226 01:00:00,680 --> 01:00:04,360 Speaker 5: Kawhi Leonard is now the most tenured player on the 1227 01:00:04,400 --> 01:00:08,000 Speaker 5: Los Angeles Clippers, been with that team longer than anybody 1228 01:00:08,040 --> 01:00:08,680 Speaker 5: else on that team. 1229 01:00:08,720 --> 01:00:11,600 Speaker 7: It is crazy to say, I guess has been a 1230 01:00:11,640 --> 01:00:12,120 Speaker 7: few years. 1231 01:00:12,320 --> 01:00:15,080 Speaker 5: May how long ago was it when Toronto and he 1232 01:00:15,160 --> 01:00:17,240 Speaker 5: and Pascal won that NBA championship. 1233 01:00:17,360 --> 01:00:20,440 Speaker 7: Yeah, I also wonder like, will he ever get punished 1234 01:00:20,560 --> 01:00:23,480 Speaker 7: for will the team ever get punished for circummitting the cap? 1235 01:00:23,520 --> 01:00:26,000 Speaker 7: I mean, well, that's a big story, but that never happened. 1236 01:00:26,120 --> 01:00:28,120 Speaker 6: I think, James, there are some people think this trade 1237 01:00:28,280 --> 01:00:31,040 Speaker 6: is an indicator that they believe they will get punished. Yeah, 1238 01:00:31,120 --> 01:00:33,560 Speaker 6: they will have to give up draft picks yeah, down 1239 01:00:33,600 --> 01:00:36,320 Speaker 6: the road, and so they're trying to stockpile them. Yeah. 1240 01:00:36,560 --> 01:00:39,320 Speaker 7: Interesting, But boy, I mean, how long does the investigation take? 1241 01:00:39,800 --> 01:00:41,920 Speaker 7: The man made the All Star team before he got punished? 1242 01:00:41,960 --> 01:00:42,400 Speaker 3: Well, what do we do? 1243 01:00:42,440 --> 01:00:43,240 Speaker 7: Where are these trees? 1244 01:00:43,360 --> 01:00:43,640 Speaker 12: Kawhi? 1245 01:00:44,120 --> 01:00:45,000 Speaker 7: Where are these trees? 1246 01:00:45,720 --> 01:00:45,919 Speaker 2: Mark? 1247 01:00:46,000 --> 01:00:48,040 Speaker 5: Let's check it down and let everybody know exactly what's 1248 01:00:48,080 --> 01:00:49,600 Speaker 5: going on if you're just tuning in the team. 1249 01:00:50,360 --> 01:00:53,400 Speaker 9: The Voiding shut Down brought to you by the Barbasol 1250 01:00:53,520 --> 01:00:59,000 Speaker 9: Horizon League Basketball Championships, Mars Stars Year, the Barbersol Horizon 1251 01:00:59,080 --> 01:01:03,360 Speaker 9: League Basketball Ship bnhgfs L turning its online March eight 1252 01:01:03,440 --> 01:01:05,920 Speaker 9: through tens, tickets and more at how Rising League dot 1253 01:01:05,960 --> 01:01:07,800 Speaker 9: com slashing Indeed, Oh. 1254 01:01:07,840 --> 01:01:09,760 Speaker 2: You've heard us talking about it all morning long. 1255 01:01:09,840 --> 01:01:12,919 Speaker 5: Here are the particulars Pacers make a trade yesterday prior 1256 01:01:13,000 --> 01:01:16,200 Speaker 5: to the trade deadline.

So very good defensively, not really 1270 01:01:58,040 --> 01:02:00,800 Speaker 7: much of a shot blocker, but ya moving that dude either. 1271 01:02:00,920 --> 01:02:03,080 Speaker 5: You're not shooting from three point range unless the clock 1272 01:02:03,160 --> 01:02:05,680 Speaker 5: is winding down. He's a last attempted a three pointer 1273 01:02:05,880 --> 01:02:09,600 Speaker 5: Kevin in the twenty twenty one season.

I don't think 1283 01:02:29,760 --> 01:02:31,920 Speaker 6: that's a surprise. Honestly, if I don't think he was 1284 01:02:32,440 --> 01:02:34,800 Speaker 6: the recent father, I don't think he'd be playing anyways. 1285 01:02:35,440 --> 01:02:36,160 Speaker 6: But yeah, we'll see. 1286 01:02:36,200 --> 01:02:36,520 Speaker 3: What is it? 1287 01:02:36,600 --> 01:02:37,040 Speaker 2: Back to back? 1288 01:02:37,240 --> 01:02:39,040 Speaker 6: I want to say Sunday, maybe in Toronto. Then they 1289 01:02:39,080 --> 01:02:41,720 Speaker 6: got a back to back Monday Tuesday, four games before 1290 01:02:41,760 --> 01:02:44,240 Speaker 6: the All Star break here for the Pacers, all on 1291 01:02:44,360 --> 01:02:46,760 Speaker 6: the road, and we will wait what the approach is 1292 01:02:46,920 --> 01:02:50,320 Speaker 6: for the Pacers. Given the restrictions on that draft pick, 1293 01:02:50,360 --> 01:02:52,920 Speaker 6: and if you missed it earlier seven thirty segment, we 1294 01:02:53,040 --> 01:02:56,480 Speaker 6: try to educate as simple as we could the pick 1295 01:02:56,600 --> 01:03:00,200 Speaker 6: protections and what this trade currently looks like and what 1296 01:03:00,280 --> 01:03:02,040 Speaker 6: it could look like based off that. 1297 01:03:02,520 --> 01:03:05,440 Speaker 5: Matheren, by the way, drafted sixth overall by Indiana back 1298 01:03:05,480 --> 01:03:08,080 Speaker 5: in twenty twenty two. He'd been a mainstay for the Pacers, 1299 01:03:08,120 --> 01:03:10,040 Speaker 5: obviously just twenty three years old. 1300 01:03:10,080 --> 01:03:11,200 Speaker 2: These averaging career highs. 1301 01:03:11,280 --> 01:03:13,840 Speaker 5: Right now, it's seventeen and a half points and three 1302 01:03:13,880 --> 01:03:17,200 Speaker 5: point shooting at thirty seven points seven percent. Rick Carlisle 1303 01:03:17,480 --> 01:03:20,400 Speaker 5: wanted to say really nice things about Benedict Matherin as 1304 01:03:20,440 --> 01:03:21,560 Speaker 5: they ship him out to LA. 1305 01:03:22,000 --> 01:03:25,360 Speaker 10: His last four games this past week and some of 1306 01:03:25,400 --> 01:03:30,400 Speaker 10: the best basketball he's played. He's grown as a guy 1307 01:03:30,560 --> 01:03:36,960 Speaker 10: that has adapted to a style that really is becoming 1308 01:03:37,080 --> 01:03:42,680 Speaker 10: v style in the NBA. You know, there have been 1309 01:03:42,800 --> 01:03:45,240 Speaker 10: ups and downs. There are ups and downs with all 1310 01:03:45,320 --> 01:03:49,240 Speaker 10: young players, but at this moment, I'm proud to say 1311 01:03:49,400 --> 01:03:54,600 Speaker 10: I just believe that he's the best equipped he's ever 1312 01:03:54,720 --> 01:03:59,840 Speaker 10: been for the next chapter. And it was very possible 1313 01:04:00,080 --> 01:04:04,120 Speaker 10: that chapter could have been here, but you know, this 1314 01:04:04,240 --> 01:04:07,640 Speaker 10: is an opportunity that neither franchise could pass on. And 1315 01:04:07,840 --> 01:04:13,040 Speaker 10: so you know, assuming everything goes well with the physicals 1316 01:04:13,120 --> 01:04:18,960 Speaker 10: and logistics, this will be a win win, do you 1317 01:04:19,120 --> 01:04:19,360 Speaker 10: knows it? 1318 01:04:19,680 --> 01:04:20,000 Speaker 6: All? Right? 1319 01:04:20,080 --> 01:04:21,840 Speaker 5: So that was Rick Carlisle meeting with the media right 1320 01:04:21,840 --> 01:04:24,680 Speaker 5: after that trade announced yesterday. Indiana's got the worst record 1321 01:04:24,680 --> 01:04:27,360 Speaker 5: in the East, number twenty two right now, and rebounds 1322 01:04:27,400 --> 01:04:32,000 Speaker 5: per game there're tied with Milwaukee tonight's opponent for number 1323 01:04:32,080 --> 01:04:34,960 Speaker 5: twenty eight in rebound percentage this season. 1324 01:04:35,040 --> 01:04:36,400 Speaker 2: That will obviously help them. 1325 01:04:36,480 --> 01:04:40,640 Speaker 5: There also Janni Santana Kupo from Milwaukee Bucks not going anywhere, 1326 01:04:40,920 --> 01:04:43,080 Speaker 5: staying put for now. You'll not see him tonight. He's 1327 01:04:43,120 --> 01:04:46,640 Speaker 5: still dealing with an injured calf in the National Football League. 1328 01:04:46,680 --> 01:04:49,480 Speaker 5: The Pro Football Hall of Fame announced that's inductees for 1329 01:04:49,560 --> 01:04:52,480 Speaker 5: twenty twenty six. Out of military, the former Colt Drew Brees, 1330 01:04:52,720 --> 01:04:56,160 Speaker 5: the former Purdue boiler Maker Larry Fitzgerald, the wide receiver 1331 01:04:56,280 --> 01:04:59,560 Speaker 5: running back Roger Craig, linebacker Luke Keikley have all gotten 1332 01:04:59,600 --> 01:05:03,000 Speaker 5: in the way continues for Reggie Wayne. Frank Gore feels 1333 01:05:03,040 --> 01:05:04,760 Speaker 5: like it's gonna be a while for Reggie Wayne. 1334 01:05:04,880 --> 01:05:07,080 Speaker 6: Yeah. Mike Chapell joined us at nine to discuss more 1335 01:05:07,120 --> 01:05:09,760 Speaker 6: of this. But chap mentioned that Reggie Wayne wasn't even 1336 01:05:09,800 --> 01:05:12,960 Speaker 6: in the top ten. So basically there's fifteen finalists, they 1337 01:05:13,040 --> 01:05:15,880 Speaker 6: cut to ten, then they cut to seven vote on 1338 01:05:16,000 --> 01:05:18,440 Speaker 6: the seven. Off of that, So the four modern era 1339 01:05:18,600 --> 01:05:23,200 Speaker 6: names you just mentioned, Jeff Breeze, Fitzgerald, Veneri Keikley those 1340 01:05:23,240 --> 01:05:26,920 Speaker 6: year four. So Wayne didn't even get to the seven. Well, 1341 01:05:27,080 --> 01:05:29,640 Speaker 6: definitely the seven, and he didn't get to the ten either, 1342 01:05:30,120 --> 01:05:33,640 Speaker 6: so Frank Gore did for example. So Yeah, Unfortunately, I 1343 01:05:33,680 --> 01:05:37,880 Speaker 6: think it's gonna be a lot more time for Reggi Wayning. 1344 01:05:37,840 --> 01:05:41,600 Speaker 5: All Right honors last night Most Valuable Player Matthew Stafford 1345 01:05:41,720 --> 01:05:44,640 Speaker 5: just a few votes more than Drake May, Offensive. 1346 01:05:44,240 --> 01:05:46,680 Speaker 6: Players one vote more. I think I saw the closest 1347 01:05:46,720 --> 01:05:50,200 Speaker 6: since Steve McNair and Peyton Manning co MVPs. 1348 01:05:49,720 --> 01:05:51,800 Speaker 2: Breeze sixty six to three sixty one. 1349 01:05:51,880 --> 01:05:52,080 Speaker 9: Shu. 1350 01:05:52,160 --> 01:05:53,920 Speaker 7: You asked Mike Chapel about that. He's still kind of 1351 01:05:54,000 --> 01:05:57,560 Speaker 7: mad because I believe Indianapolis did not have a vote 1352 01:05:58,000 --> 01:06:00,440 Speaker 7: that year for MVP when it came down to the 1353 01:06:00,480 --> 01:06:03,320 Speaker 7: top betweeny, Steve mcannaer, and Payon Manning. So if they 1354 01:06:03,360 --> 01:06:05,280 Speaker 7: had had one, that one person, being my chap well, 1355 01:06:05,280 --> 01:06:06,600 Speaker 7: I'd imagine that would have been paid Manny. 1356 01:06:06,760 --> 01:06:08,400 Speaker 6: Maybe he would have sold the villain then voted for 1357 01:06:08,440 --> 01:06:09,040 Speaker 6: Steve McNair. 1358 01:06:09,200 --> 01:06:11,320 Speaker 7: No, you never know with the with these Hall of 1359 01:06:11,400 --> 01:06:12,600 Speaker 7: Fame voters we have like. 1360 01:06:14,800 --> 01:06:16,840 Speaker 2: Rust and p Steve McNair Jackson. 1361 01:06:16,880 --> 01:06:19,360 Speaker 6: Had twenty four first police votes, Drake May twenty three, 1362 01:06:19,520 --> 01:06:23,120 Speaker 6: Josh Allen two, and then someone randomly gave Justin Herbert One. 1363 01:06:23,480 --> 01:06:23,840 Speaker 2: There you go. 1364 01:06:24,920 --> 01:06:27,160 Speaker 5: Always want in the crowd Jackson Smith and Jigba is. 1365 01:06:27,160 --> 01:06:30,440 Speaker 5: The offensive player of the Year Miles Garrett, the Defensive 1366 01:06:30,480 --> 01:06:32,600 Speaker 5: Player of the Year, Comeback Player of the Year is 1367 01:06:32,680 --> 01:06:35,880 Speaker 5: Christian McCaffrey, and the Walter Payton NFL Man of the 1368 01:06:35,920 --> 01:06:38,960 Speaker 5: Year Bobby Wagner. So that's what's happening in the world 1369 01:06:39,000 --> 01:06:40,919 Speaker 5: of sports. We got a lot of college basketball coming 1370 01:06:41,000 --> 01:06:44,120 Speaker 5: up tomorrow.

I don't know 1412 01:08:38,439 --> 01:08:40,200 Speaker 5: what they're they're gonna be like, but it kind of 1413 01:08:40,240 --> 01:08:42,920 Speaker 5: feels like Butler is kind of who they are right now, right. 1414 01:08:44,400 --> 01:08:45,880 Speaker 6: Yeah, and the injuries starting a pilot you on one 1415 01:08:46,000 --> 01:08:47,800 Speaker 6: question I wanted to ask that was any update on 1416 01:08:47,880 --> 01:08:50,800 Speaker 6: Stink Robinson and that left wrist injury. We saw him 1417 01:08:50,840 --> 01:08:55,120 Speaker 6: miss the game against Providence over the weekend. By the way, 1418 01:08:55,160 --> 01:08:56,840 Speaker 6: Big East wives one of my favorite games of the 1419 01:08:56,920 --> 01:09:01,679 Speaker 6: year tonight Yukon against Saint John's. These two teams are hot, 1420 01:09:02,240 --> 01:09:04,200 Speaker 6: very hot right now. How much of that is just 1421 01:09:04,280 --> 01:09:05,680 Speaker 6: the rest of the Big East. How much of that 1422 01:09:05,880 --> 01:09:08,200 Speaker 6: is we know? Yukon I think could be playing right 1423 01:09:08,240 --> 01:09:10,760 Speaker 6: here in Indianapolis first week April. I think a lot 1424 01:09:10,760 --> 01:09:13,120 Speaker 6: of people thought preseason Saint John's could and now they're 1425 01:09:13,120 --> 01:09:15,760 Speaker 6: starting to play like that. So that's a great, great 1426 01:09:15,840 --> 01:09:19,080 Speaker 6: game coming up tonight, and in general, here we are 1427 01:09:19,120 --> 01:09:24,479 Speaker 6: February sixth. We have two undefeated teams left. Arizona May 1428 01:09:24,520 --> 01:09:26,160 Speaker 6: have a high I believe I saw the stat earlier 1429 01:09:26,160 --> 01:09:28,400 Speaker 6: this week. It's just a fifth time in the last 1430 01:09:28,600 --> 01:09:30,960 Speaker 6: thirty years we've reached at this point of the season 1431 01:09:31,560 --> 01:09:35,439 Speaker 6: and we've had two undefeated teams. Oh, did you see 1432 01:09:35,439 --> 01:09:38,360 Speaker 6: what Michigan did to Penn State last night? Did you 1433 01:09:38,400 --> 01:09:39,080 Speaker 6: see the final score? 1434 01:09:39,080 --> 01:09:40,720 Speaker 5: I did see the final score. I saw at like 1435 01:09:40,800 --> 01:09:43,280 Speaker 5: the halftime score, and it didn't pay much attention after that. 1436 01:09:43,600 --> 01:09:49,200 Speaker 6: One hundred and ten to sixty nine. Michigan is beating 1437 01:09:49,479 --> 01:09:55,439 Speaker 6: the breaks off of like teams that have pulses, like 1438 01:09:56,280 --> 01:09:58,799 Speaker 6: budget teams. Now the Penn State's got a big budget. 1439 01:09:58,840 --> 01:10:02,160 Speaker 6: But I mean they smoke Gonzaga earlier this year, they 1440 01:10:02,240 --> 01:10:07,599 Speaker 6: smoked Auburn earlier this year. Villanova they ran off the floor. 1441 01:10:07,760 --> 01:10:11,439 Speaker 6: I mean, Dusty May has got quite the squad up there. 1442 01:10:11,520 --> 01:10:14,240 Speaker 6: Last week Friday night game was awesome. Michigan Michigan State. 1443 01:10:14,320 --> 01:10:17,280 Speaker 6: Tonight we'll get Yukon and Saint John's the eight o'clock tip. 1444 01:10:17,520 --> 01:10:19,040 Speaker 5: Yeah, and you know, you look at the Big East too, 1445 01:10:19,040 --> 01:10:20,080 Speaker 5: And this is one of the things I'm going to 1446 01:10:20,120 --> 01:10:23,080 Speaker 5: talk to Fat about the top two teams are in 1447 01:10:23,120 --> 01:10:25,920 Speaker 5: a different world right now. Yukon they've they're twenty two 1448 01:10:25,960 --> 01:10:29,599 Speaker 5: to one. They're looking really good right now. Saint John's 1449 01:10:29,600 --> 01:10:32,559 Speaker 5: has turned the corner. As you said, they're really starting 1450 01:10:32,600 --> 01:10:34,760 Speaker 5: to play well and they've only got one loss in 1451 01:10:34,800 --> 01:10:37,120 Speaker 5: Big East play. They're ten and one now and they're 1452 01:10:37,240 --> 01:10:40,920 Speaker 5: suffocating on defense. It's not out of the realm of 1453 01:10:41,040 --> 01:10:43,880 Speaker 5: possibility that Yukon and Saint John's could both get to 1454 01:10:44,000 --> 01:10:45,240 Speaker 5: at least the Elite eight. 1455 01:10:45,680 --> 01:10:48,400 Speaker 6: Oh for sure. Yeah, easily on that end. 1456 01:10:48,520 --> 01:10:48,840 Speaker 2: Easily. 1457 01:10:49,160 --> 01:10:50,960 Speaker 5: So it's not like, you know, the Big East does 1458 01:10:51,040 --> 01:10:54,320 Speaker 5: have some really good teams in Villanova's kind of they're good. 1459 01:10:54,360 --> 01:10:55,400 Speaker 2: I don't know how good they are. 1460 01:10:55,520 --> 01:10:58,880 Speaker 5: But here's the crazy part at four and eight because 1461 01:10:59,080 --> 01:11:01,120 Speaker 5: largely because you can on, Saint Johns and Villanov have 1462 01:11:01,200 --> 01:11:03,760 Speaker 5: dominated the rest of the league. Butler at four and eight, 1463 01:11:03,800 --> 01:11:05,679 Speaker 5: they are only two games out of the fourth spot 1464 01:11:05,760 --> 01:11:06,800 Speaker 5: in the Big East right now. 1465 01:11:07,560 --> 01:11:10,040 Speaker 2: Seaton, Hall and Creighton are tied at six and six 1466 01:11:10,160 --> 01:11:10,920 Speaker 2: for the fourth spot. 1467 01:11:11,000 --> 01:11:14,920 Speaker 5: Right now, Butler is four and eight. It's not inconceivable 1468 01:11:15,000 --> 01:11:16,680 Speaker 5: that they could make a run to be in the 1469 01:11:16,720 --> 01:11:18,680 Speaker 5: top five in the Big East, which would be good 1470 01:11:18,720 --> 01:11:21,200 Speaker 5: for seating later on in that tournament, but you know 1471 01:11:21,520 --> 01:11:24,200 Speaker 5: it's clearly a two team race. Yukon Saint John's all. 1472 01:11:24,080 --> 01:11:26,280 Speaker 6: Throw the same question through to James. You like what 1473 01:11:26,600 --> 01:11:29,120 Speaker 6: the most about the Aviza Zubats. 1474 01:11:28,680 --> 01:11:32,840 Speaker 2: Trade rebounding and some toughness. That's the one thing. 1475 01:11:33,680 --> 01:11:36,599 Speaker 5: As mentally tough as the Indiana Pacers were last year, 1476 01:11:36,920 --> 01:11:39,320 Speaker 5: I thought they were missing some physical toughness. Not that 1477 01:11:39,360 --> 01:11:42,240 Speaker 5: they don't have guys that are tough but itself, but 1478 01:11:42,400 --> 01:11:45,160 Speaker 5: you need that. I think sometimes you need that big, 1479 01:11:45,880 --> 01:11:49,160 Speaker 5: immovable guy. I know he's not the shot blocker that 1480 01:11:49,520 --> 01:11:50,840 Speaker 5: Miles is going to be. I know he's not going 1481 01:11:50,920 --> 01:11:53,000 Speaker 5: to pull guys away from the basket on offense that 1482 01:11:53,160 --> 01:11:56,280 Speaker 5: Miles did. I like having somebody that can hold his 1483 01:11:56,439 --> 01:11:59,519 Speaker 5: own against a really good big man down low, and 1484 01:11:59,560 --> 01:12:00,400 Speaker 5: I think he's a guy that. 1485 01:12:00,400 --> 01:12:01,599 Speaker 2: Can, for the most part, hold his own. 1486 01:12:01,720 --> 01:12:03,920 Speaker 5: Take a look at how he played against Nikola Jokicz 1487 01:12:04,000 --> 01:12:07,799 Speaker 5: last year in the playoffs. Yes, Jokis is still Jokis. 1488 01:12:07,800 --> 01:12:09,320 Speaker 5: He's going to do his thing, but he was held 1489 01:12:09,400 --> 01:12:12,880 Speaker 5: below all of his averages in that series. Your biggest question, then, 1490 01:12:14,600 --> 01:12:16,360 Speaker 5: how much offense are you going to Actually, I know 1491 01:12:16,400 --> 01:12:18,120 Speaker 5: he's averaging fourteen point four points per game. 1492 01:12:18,160 --> 01:12:19,479 Speaker 2: He gets a lot of that around the rim. 1493 01:12:20,120 --> 01:12:23,559 Speaker 5: I'm excited that he'll have Tyrese Haliburton deciding when he's 1494 01:12:23,600 --> 01:12:24,920 Speaker 5: going to get the ball and how he does that. 1495 01:12:25,760 --> 01:12:28,400 Speaker 5: But you're not going to have those nights where Miles 1496 01:12:28,479 --> 01:12:31,200 Speaker 5: Turner had three or four three point shots and scored 1497 01:12:31,240 --> 01:12:34,719 Speaker 5: twenty twenty three points a game, and that can. 1498 01:12:34,640 --> 01:12:35,280 Speaker 2: Help as well. 1499 01:12:35,360 --> 01:12:38,640 Speaker 5: But I think overall, as much as I'm going to 1500 01:12:38,680 --> 01:12:40,280 Speaker 5: miss mather and and we've talked about that, you and 1501 01:12:40,360 --> 01:12:42,760 Speaker 5: I both like him, I don't think the Pacers hurt 1502 01:12:42,800 --> 01:12:45,040 Speaker 5: themselves at all and may have helped themselves when Tyrese 1503 01:12:45,040 --> 01:12:45,920 Speaker 5: Haliburton gets back. 1504 01:12:47,120 --> 01:12:49,479 Speaker 6: Yeah, I'd probably point more to the draft pick element 1505 01:12:49,560 --> 01:12:51,479 Speaker 6: to the trade. That would be my biggest question mark 1506 01:12:51,600 --> 01:12:54,320 Speaker 6: is you know, are you giving up again a pick 1507 01:12:54,400 --> 01:12:57,240 Speaker 6: that is in the top ten? You know one question? 1508 01:12:58,080 --> 01:13:00,560 Speaker 6: You know, when Haliburton does get back, where is he 1509 01:13:00,800 --> 01:13:03,720 Speaker 6: at Achilles wise? You know, I did the dumb video 1510 01:13:03,760 --> 01:13:05,960 Speaker 6: game analogy the other day of if you want to 1511 01:13:06,000 --> 01:13:10,200 Speaker 6: call Tyre's Haliburton a ninety four overall currently in his 1512 01:13:10,320 --> 01:13:14,800 Speaker 6: current state, what if post Achilles it drops to eighty 1513 01:13:14,840 --> 01:13:18,360 Speaker 6: eight and you know some way you're splitting hairs. But 1514 01:13:18,520 --> 01:13:19,920 Speaker 6: then what if you do the same thing with Pascal 1515 01:13:19,960 --> 01:13:22,320 Speaker 6: Siakam as he starts to get, you know, deeper into 1516 01:13:22,360 --> 01:13:24,880 Speaker 6: his thirties. Okay, do you need then more of the 1517 01:13:24,920 --> 01:13:27,120 Speaker 6: offensive load to go to some other guys and are 1518 01:13:27,160 --> 01:13:31,240 Speaker 6: you equipped to handle that? But certainly with Zubats I 1519 01:13:31,320 --> 01:13:34,080 Speaker 6: think you're spot on and his ability to again just 1520 01:13:34,200 --> 01:13:39,519 Speaker 6: be an actual physical presence. Like you said, lack of 1521 01:13:39,600 --> 01:13:41,960 Speaker 6: physical toughness or you didn't want to go down that path. No, 1522 01:13:42,040 --> 01:13:45,719 Speaker 6: you're right, they did. They did lack physical toughness. 1523 01:13:45,760 --> 01:13:47,280 Speaker 5: I just want a difference because that was a very 1524 01:13:47,360 --> 01:13:49,200 Speaker 5: mentally tough basketball team. 1525 01:13:49,000 --> 01:13:51,080 Speaker 6: From the center position they lack. I mean they got 1526 01:13:51,160 --> 01:13:53,639 Speaker 6: bullied by a lot of guys, not just Joel Embiid. 1527 01:13:53,680 --> 01:13:58,280 Speaker 6: They got bullied when centers of that ilk played against them. 1528 01:13:59,840 --> 01:14:02,160 Speaker 6: And again I'll come back to this with matherin of 1529 01:14:02,400 --> 01:14:04,120 Speaker 6: did he want to be here? 1530 01:14:04,920 --> 01:14:07,240 Speaker 5: I think at some point as he developed, you get 1531 01:14:07,280 --> 01:14:11,040 Speaker 5: into a logjam of guys that essentially play the same position, 1532 01:14:11,080 --> 01:14:13,400 Speaker 5: whether it's two or three with the Indiana Pacers, and 1533 01:14:13,479 --> 01:14:15,320 Speaker 5: he is a guy that I think Rick We heard 1534 01:14:15,360 --> 01:14:17,840 Speaker 5: Rick talking about him in the last update the fact 1535 01:14:17,880 --> 01:14:22,400 Speaker 5: that he's coming into his own and probably could be 1536 01:14:22,960 --> 01:14:25,880 Speaker 5: maybe the second scorer on the Clippers as they moved 1537 01:14:25,920 --> 01:14:26,479 Speaker 5: down the line. 1538 01:14:27,080 --> 01:14:29,880 Speaker 6: Yeah, and again, I've obviously carried the Matherin flag for 1539 01:14:29,960 --> 01:14:33,760 Speaker 6: quite some time, so I apologize for repeating myself. But 1540 01:14:33,920 --> 01:14:38,040 Speaker 6: I feel like there's this weird kind of like the 1541 01:14:38,520 --> 01:14:40,719 Speaker 6: part of the fan base like takes him for granted 1542 01:14:40,840 --> 01:14:43,479 Speaker 6: or doesn't maybe fully acknowledge what he's done. He's done 1543 01:14:43,640 --> 01:14:48,000 Speaker 6: things this franchise has never seen of a player twenty one, 1544 01:14:48,240 --> 01:14:51,400 Speaker 6: twenty two, twenty three years old. Again, he is as 1545 01:14:51,479 --> 01:14:54,960 Speaker 6: young as Andrew Nemhard was what they drafted Nemhard Like, 1546 01:14:55,520 --> 01:14:58,920 Speaker 6: he's a very young basketball player. Basketball players typically you're 1547 01:14:58,960 --> 01:15:01,760 Speaker 6: not hitting your prime un till mid late twenties even, 1548 01:15:02,400 --> 01:15:06,080 Speaker 6: you know, early thirties. And we talk about him like 1549 01:15:06,120 --> 01:15:10,040 Speaker 6: he's some finished product. And you know, again in the 1550 01:15:10,120 --> 01:15:12,360 Speaker 6: NBA Finals and the biggest stage in the NBA Finals, 1551 01:15:12,400 --> 01:15:14,920 Speaker 6: he was a massive reason why you won Game three, 1552 01:15:15,360 --> 01:15:17,479 Speaker 6: coming off the bench, scoring the most points any player 1553 01:15:17,560 --> 01:15:20,720 Speaker 6: of that age has ever scored in finals history. I 1554 01:15:20,800 --> 01:15:25,920 Speaker 6: mean that finals history. Like again, you know, people are like, well, 1555 01:15:26,479 --> 01:15:29,479 Speaker 6: he doesn't fit well. You know, if you want to 1556 01:15:29,479 --> 01:15:32,720 Speaker 6: get technical I don't know if Zubats fits exactly what 1557 01:15:32,840 --> 01:15:36,320 Speaker 6: you want offensively, but sometimes it's necessary to have guys 1558 01:15:36,360 --> 01:15:40,280 Speaker 6: that do other things well for your basketball team. And 1559 01:15:40,400 --> 01:15:43,080 Speaker 6: Matheren as a bucket getter and getting to the foul 1560 01:15:43,120 --> 01:15:47,400 Speaker 6: line on a routine basis, does that. And I think 1561 01:15:47,479 --> 01:15:49,599 Speaker 6: at times that is really taken for granted. I don't 1562 01:15:49,600 --> 01:15:51,880 Speaker 6: see Jarris Walker doing that. I don't see Johnny Furfrey 1563 01:15:51,960 --> 01:15:54,360 Speaker 6: doing that. I don't see Ben Sheppard whoever else is 1564 01:15:54,400 --> 01:15:56,080 Speaker 6: going to step into that role. So again I get 1565 01:15:56,160 --> 01:15:58,920 Speaker 6: the trade, but I think we are very quick to 1566 01:15:59,080 --> 01:16:03,920 Speaker 6: just kind of shoe Matherin in his skill set away, 1567 01:16:04,000 --> 01:16:05,640 Speaker 6: particularly if you are going to lose this draft pick 1568 01:16:05,680 --> 01:16:06,040 Speaker 6: coming up. 1569 01:16:06,280 --> 01:16:08,839 Speaker 5: Yeah, and again you and I have always liked Benedict 1570 01:16:08,880 --> 01:16:10,840 Speaker 5: Matherin and where he is, and he's only twenty three 1571 01:16:10,960 --> 01:16:12,840 Speaker 5: years old. But the other part of it is you're 1572 01:16:12,840 --> 01:16:14,320 Speaker 5: going to have if you want to get something, you 1573 01:16:14,439 --> 01:16:17,840 Speaker 5: have to get something. And it is clear that there 1574 01:16:17,960 --> 01:16:20,040 Speaker 5: was a huge hole at that five spot for the 1575 01:16:20,080 --> 01:16:22,920 Speaker 5: Indeta Pacers, and if they want to truly reload and 1576 01:16:23,000 --> 01:16:25,599 Speaker 5: make a run when Tyrese Haliburton gets back, you were 1577 01:16:25,680 --> 01:16:27,000 Speaker 5: going to have to address that. 1578 01:16:27,520 --> 01:16:30,280 Speaker 2: I also agree with you, this trade is made or. 1579 01:16:30,320 --> 01:16:32,720 Speaker 5: Broken on whether or not they get one of those 1580 01:16:32,800 --> 01:16:34,960 Speaker 5: big players at the at the top of the draft. 1581 01:16:35,080 --> 01:16:36,639 Speaker 5: Is what it feels like at this point in time. 1582 01:16:36,720 --> 01:16:37,600 Speaker 5: History may look at it. 1583 01:16:37,840 --> 01:16:38,559 Speaker 2: A little bit different. 1584 01:16:38,600 --> 01:16:42,679 Speaker 5: Maybe they do pick seventh and somehow win a windfall 1585 01:16:42,760 --> 01:16:45,519 Speaker 5: with a guy that nobody saw coming. But you can't 1586 01:16:45,560 --> 01:16:46,400 Speaker 5: count on those things. 1587 01:16:46,520 --> 01:16:48,439 Speaker 2: Seventh well, LA gets it. 1588 01:16:48,520 --> 01:16:50,040 Speaker 5: But yeah, my point being if you go all the 1589 01:16:50,040 --> 01:16:51,960 Speaker 5: way back to tenth, then we. 1590 01:16:51,920 --> 01:16:53,640 Speaker 6: Should probably on the other side, which probably explain it 1591 01:16:53,680 --> 01:16:56,720 Speaker 6: again because I think people are very confused. I my 1592 01:16:56,800 --> 01:16:59,599 Speaker 6: hand is raised one thing, exactly what are the pick 1593 01:16:59,680 --> 01:17:02,640 Speaker 6: per teenctions? We'll try to do that again and can 1594 01:17:02,680 --> 01:17:03,760 Speaker 6: we can we get zoo bots. 1595 01:17:03,760 --> 01:17:06,040 Speaker 8: In his introductory press conference to give a shout out 1596 01:17:06,040 --> 01:17:09,160 Speaker 8: to a local radio host, maybe like a Benedict Mathern did. 1597 01:17:10,800 --> 01:17:12,680 Speaker 7: Thank you for your support, herr. You a big fan 1598 01:17:12,760 --> 01:17:16,120 Speaker 7: in the faces I'm here, you know, supporting you, you 1599 01:17:16,200 --> 01:17:18,320 Speaker 7: support me, and I'm really excited and you know, I'm 1600 01:17:18,360 --> 01:17:20,560 Speaker 7: really excited for the season and looking forward to do 1601 01:17:20,640 --> 01:17:21,840 Speaker 7: some damage to get some wins. 1602 01:17:21,920 --> 01:17:22,240 Speaker 2: Let's go. 1603 01:17:23,320 --> 01:17:24,880 Speaker 8: Should I send it over to LA so they can 1604 01:17:25,000 --> 01:17:26,720 Speaker 8: use that now mutual support right there? 1605 01:17:26,760 --> 01:17:28,800 Speaker 6: Yeah, you don't hear that every day? No, Now, have 1606 01:17:28,960 --> 01:17:33,240 Speaker 6: you seen mister zoboss pregnancy pictures? 1607 01:17:33,280 --> 01:17:33,360 Speaker 10: Oh? 1608 01:17:33,439 --> 01:17:38,320 Speaker 6: Yeah, the missus. Boy, don't think the Bowen family was 1609 01:17:39,000 --> 01:17:41,200 Speaker 6: dialing up those sorts of pictures, you know. 1610 01:17:41,360 --> 01:17:43,080 Speaker 2: And now I got to go look for him. 1611 01:17:43,240 --> 01:17:44,240 Speaker 6: Well, I don't know if you want to do it 1612 01:17:44,320 --> 01:17:45,719 Speaker 6: on that not on a work computer. 1613 01:17:45,800 --> 01:17:47,400 Speaker 5: I would one more quick thing before we get too 1614 01:17:47,439 --> 01:17:49,320 Speaker 5: far away from it. You were talking about Tyree's. 1615 01:17:49,280 --> 01:17:51,479 Speaker 6: Locked in a bathroom stall for the next ten minutes. 1616 01:17:51,520 --> 01:17:55,439 Speaker 5: Okay, now I have to go check it out. 1617 01:17:56,479 --> 01:17:58,160 Speaker 2: But we were talking about Tyree's Haliburton. 1618 01:17:58,200 --> 01:18:02,680 Speaker 5: What I love about this sixteen months he'll be off 1619 01:18:02,760 --> 01:18:06,120 Speaker 5: of that achilles injury when he plays a regular. 1620 01:18:05,800 --> 01:18:09,040 Speaker 2: Season NBA game. Again, I love that. 1621 01:18:09,640 --> 01:18:11,680 Speaker 5: And then when you talk about when you really have 1622 01:18:11,800 --> 01:18:14,840 Speaker 5: to make in the NBA from after the All Star 1623 01:18:14,960 --> 01:18:18,960 Speaker 5: Game on, he should be getting pretty close to whatever 1624 01:18:19,040 --> 01:18:21,880 Speaker 5: one hundred percent is going to be at that point 1625 01:18:21,920 --> 01:18:25,160 Speaker 5: in time. So I like I like the timing of 1626 01:18:25,240 --> 01:18:27,439 Speaker 5: all this kind of coming together. We'll see how the 1627 01:18:27,520 --> 01:18:29,800 Speaker 5: traffick works out, all right. 1628 01:18:29,680 --> 01:18:32,679 Speaker 2: Coming up in a moment, we will get an explainer. Again. 1629 01:18:33,280 --> 01:18:36,280 Speaker 5: Kevin Bowen did a great job in the opening minutes 1630 01:18:36,320 --> 01:18:38,880 Speaker 5: of running down how this trade works. We'll hear it 1631 01:18:38,920 --> 01:18:40,800 Speaker 5: again for those of you who missed it next. It's 1632 01:18:40,840 --> 01:18:42,400 Speaker 5: ninety three five and one oh seven five F. 1633 01:18:53,560 --> 01:18:57,000 Speaker 6: You're listening to a fan morning show on Sports Radio. 1634 01:18:56,840 --> 01:19:04,600 Speaker 5: Ninety seven, Kevin As I look out the windows of 1635 01:19:04,720 --> 01:19:05,960 Speaker 5: the Radio one. 1636 01:19:07,439 --> 01:19:08,240 Speaker 2: Studio here on. 1637 01:19:08,280 --> 01:19:12,240 Speaker 5: The second floor in downtown Indianapolis, the snow has started 1638 01:19:12,280 --> 01:19:13,439 Speaker 5: to drop again. 1639 01:19:14,640 --> 01:19:17,000 Speaker 6: I think it's snowing a lot in the northern part 1640 01:19:17,000 --> 01:19:20,080 Speaker 6: of the state right now. So hopefully girls basketball sectionals 1641 01:19:20,120 --> 01:19:23,400 Speaker 6: in particular, I would think we got wrestling regionals tomorrow 1642 01:19:24,280 --> 01:19:26,040 Speaker 6: around the state. Hopefully we're good on that. You know, 1643 01:19:26,040 --> 01:19:27,720 Speaker 6: we got a game inside of Mackie Arena. I don't 1644 01:19:27,760 --> 01:19:31,080 Speaker 6: think we're gonna have any issue issues there. But safe 1645 01:19:31,120 --> 01:19:33,080 Speaker 6: travels to everybody out there this weekend. 1646 01:19:33,400 --> 01:19:36,240 Speaker 5: All right, check real quickly before we get some explaining 1647 01:19:36,280 --> 01:19:39,880 Speaker 5: out of you, DJ and Indy talking about is there 1648 01:19:39,920 --> 01:19:42,320 Speaker 5: an open roster spot for the Pacers still and if so, 1649 01:19:42,680 --> 01:19:45,160 Speaker 5: thoughts on James Johnson's signing after this move. 1650 01:19:45,200 --> 01:19:46,920 Speaker 2: A lot of people are wondering what the bottom of the. 1651 01:19:47,000 --> 01:19:48,080 Speaker 5: Roster starts to look like. 1652 01:19:48,720 --> 01:19:52,240 Speaker 6: Two out and two in, right, Yeah, so, Isaiah Jackson, 1653 01:19:52,280 --> 01:19:56,680 Speaker 6: Ben Nicmatherin out, Vitza Zubats and Kobe Brown in. So yes, 1654 01:19:56,760 --> 01:19:58,080 Speaker 6: I don't, Yes, I don't foresee that. 1655 01:19:58,280 --> 01:19:59,760 Speaker 5: Hey, one of the things real quickly too. Before we 1656 01:19:59,760 --> 01:20:02,800 Speaker 5: get your explanation, I had reached out to the winner 1657 01:20:02,960 --> 01:20:07,160 Speaker 5: of our fantasy football morning show league, Katie from the 1658 01:20:07,240 --> 01:20:07,880 Speaker 5: KROCKA Gators. 1659 01:20:07,920 --> 01:20:09,320 Speaker 2: We were going to have her on this morning. 1660 01:20:09,840 --> 01:20:12,519 Speaker 5: With all the things that happened with the trade and 1661 01:20:12,560 --> 01:20:14,280 Speaker 5: everything like that, we kind of ran out of extra 1662 01:20:14,400 --> 01:20:16,920 Speaker 5: time to do stuff like that. But I promise you, Katie, 1663 01:20:17,200 --> 01:20:20,560 Speaker 5: sometime next week we will honor you in the appropriate 1664 01:20:20,640 --> 01:20:24,439 Speaker 5: way and shower you with prizes and all that good stuff. 1665 01:20:25,000 --> 01:20:27,720 Speaker 5: But I had reached out to her earlier in the 1666 01:20:27,800 --> 01:20:30,960 Speaker 5: week via email, saying, Hey, we'd love to have you on, Katie. 1667 01:20:31,000 --> 01:20:33,160 Speaker 5: We haven't forgotten about you. It just got really really 1668 01:20:33,240 --> 01:20:37,280 Speaker 5: busy today, so we will get there. Just give us 1669 01:20:37,320 --> 01:20:38,960 Speaker 5: a day or two and then the super Bowl will 1670 01:20:38,960 --> 01:20:42,160 Speaker 5: happen on Sunday and we'll honor you along with the 1671 01:20:42,320 --> 01:20:45,000 Speaker 5: eventual Super Bowl champions. That sounded like a plan, Mark Dayton, 1672 01:20:45,479 --> 01:20:47,759 Speaker 5: Katie from the KROCKA Gator. So, by the way, dominated 1673 01:20:47,800 --> 01:20:50,760 Speaker 5: that dominated that league pretty much beginning to end didn't. 1674 01:20:50,520 --> 01:20:54,080 Speaker 6: She I don't know. I was worried about my team 1675 01:20:54,120 --> 01:20:55,040 Speaker 6: that didn't fare so well. 1676 01:20:55,360 --> 01:20:58,360 Speaker 5: All right, Kevin, you promised a little bit of an 1677 01:20:58,400 --> 01:21:02,360 Speaker 5: explainer on how the draft situation in this trade for 1678 01:21:02,479 --> 01:21:04,400 Speaker 5: zubots might work for the Indiana Pacers. 1679 01:21:04,520 --> 01:21:06,439 Speaker 6: Yes, and again, like I said in the seven o'clock hour, 1680 01:21:06,560 --> 01:21:10,200 Speaker 6: you guys nitpick, I'm going to try and simplify it 1681 01:21:10,280 --> 01:21:13,120 Speaker 6: as best I can. Even myself had to go over 1682 01:21:13,160 --> 01:21:17,400 Speaker 6: it five, six, seven, eight times last night, so I 1683 01:21:17,560 --> 01:21:20,400 Speaker 6: hope this is as easy to explain. But again, the 1684 01:21:20,520 --> 01:21:23,919 Speaker 6: twenty twenty sixth draft pick will go to the LA Clippers. 1685 01:21:24,360 --> 01:21:30,320 Speaker 6: If that pick falls at five, six, seven, eight or nine. 1686 01:21:30,640 --> 01:21:32,960 Speaker 6: If it's one through four, the Pacers keep it. If 1687 01:21:33,000 --> 01:21:37,400 Speaker 6: it's ten through thirty, the Pacers keep it. Now, let's 1688 01:21:37,400 --> 01:21:40,000 Speaker 6: go over all those scenarios. So the draft lottery is 1689 01:21:40,040 --> 01:21:43,360 Speaker 6: Mother's Day night, whatever it is, May tenth, a Sunday. 1690 01:21:43,640 --> 01:21:46,799 Speaker 6: We'll find out what the ping pong balls indicate here. Currently, 1691 01:21:47,439 --> 01:21:50,880 Speaker 6: the Pacers have the third worst record in the league. 1692 01:21:51,600 --> 01:21:55,200 Speaker 6: That means right now they would have a fifty two 1693 01:21:55,360 --> 01:21:59,280 Speaker 6: percent chance at a top four pick. If they had 1694 01:21:59,320 --> 01:22:01,320 Speaker 6: the second worst current league, it would be the same odds. 1695 01:22:01,360 --> 01:22:03,120 Speaker 6: If they had the first horse record in the league, 1696 01:22:03,120 --> 01:22:04,320 Speaker 6: it would be the same ods. So right now, it's 1697 01:22:04,320 --> 01:22:06,519 Speaker 6: about a coin flip to keep that top four pick 1698 01:22:07,479 --> 01:22:09,640 Speaker 6: based off the permutations in all event, and this is 1699 01:22:09,680 --> 01:22:14,160 Speaker 6: more of a math question than anything right now, according 1700 01:22:14,200 --> 01:22:16,800 Speaker 6: to the tankathon dot com, the most likely pick they 1701 01:22:16,800 --> 01:22:19,880 Speaker 6: would have would be sixth or fifth, So that pick 1702 01:22:19,960 --> 01:22:22,160 Speaker 6: again would go to the Clippers if they are drifting, 1703 01:22:22,240 --> 01:22:25,080 Speaker 6: obviously that would be a team jumping them in the lottery, 1704 01:22:25,200 --> 01:22:27,559 Speaker 6: which we do see that on an annual basis here. 1705 01:22:27,720 --> 01:22:30,800 Speaker 6: So that is what they're looking at right now. 1706 01:22:31,160 --> 01:22:31,280 Speaker 10: Now. 1707 01:22:31,320 --> 01:22:34,400 Speaker 6: How much could these odds shift again, Currently they have 1708 01:22:34,479 --> 01:22:37,040 Speaker 6: the third worst record. If they were to be three 1709 01:22:37,160 --> 01:22:38,920 Speaker 6: games better right now, Jeff, if they were to have 1710 01:22:38,960 --> 01:22:41,880 Speaker 6: three wins better, that fifty two percent number for a 1711 01:22:41,960 --> 01:22:44,759 Speaker 6: top four pick that would shrink to the mid thirties. 1712 01:22:45,960 --> 01:22:47,920 Speaker 6: So if you would have just had a little bit 1713 01:22:47,960 --> 01:22:52,080 Speaker 6: of a better October or November or December right now, 1714 01:22:52,240 --> 01:22:55,320 Speaker 6: the coin flip would be like one in three chants 1715 01:22:55,840 --> 01:22:58,560 Speaker 6: at getting a top four pick. So that's what you 1716 01:22:58,720 --> 01:23:02,640 Speaker 6: could be fighting now the rest of the season. The 1717 01:23:02,800 --> 01:23:07,160 Speaker 6: more you win, the less that coin flip happens. Now 1718 01:23:07,800 --> 01:23:11,360 Speaker 6: hear me out here. I have heard of some people say, well, 1719 01:23:12,120 --> 01:23:15,479 Speaker 6: what if they really start to win, and what if 1720 01:23:15,520 --> 01:23:17,519 Speaker 6: they get all the way to like the tenth worst 1721 01:23:17,560 --> 01:23:20,240 Speaker 6: record or the eleventh worst record, Because if you enter 1722 01:23:20,320 --> 01:23:22,439 Speaker 6: the lottery with the tenth or the eleventh worst record, 1723 01:23:22,720 --> 01:23:25,640 Speaker 6: you're going to keep your pick because based off how 1724 01:23:25,880 --> 01:23:28,320 Speaker 6: all the ping pong balls work, the only chance you 1725 01:23:28,360 --> 01:23:31,200 Speaker 6: would have there is either striking lightning in a bottle, 1726 01:23:31,280 --> 01:23:34,160 Speaker 6: which is likely like Dallas did last year, getting the 1727 01:23:34,200 --> 01:23:38,080 Speaker 6: first or second overall pick, or the lottery will play 1728 01:23:38,120 --> 01:23:40,840 Speaker 6: out and your small lottery odds will keep you ten 1729 01:23:41,080 --> 01:23:44,240 Speaker 6: or eleven or twelve somewhere right around there, and again 1730 01:23:44,280 --> 01:23:46,320 Speaker 6: you would keep that pick. You're only losing it if 1731 01:23:46,320 --> 01:23:52,120 Speaker 6: it's five, six, seven, eight, or nine. So I think 1732 01:23:52,360 --> 01:23:57,000 Speaker 6: that explains everything. My thought is, you want to try 1733 01:23:57,120 --> 01:23:59,680 Speaker 6: to keep the coin flip oods. The coin flipbods are 1734 01:23:59,720 --> 01:24:02,719 Speaker 6: the best odds you can have. Again it's for the first, second, 1735 01:24:02,880 --> 01:24:05,479 Speaker 6: or third worst record in the league. Then those odds 1736 01:24:05,640 --> 01:24:10,120 Speaker 6: start to decrease, so based off that, I think you 1737 01:24:10,200 --> 01:24:12,760 Speaker 6: have to tank. I don't think there's any way around it. 1738 01:24:12,840 --> 01:24:14,360 Speaker 6: If you want the best chance to get one of 1739 01:24:14,400 --> 01:24:15,160 Speaker 6: the top four picks. 1740 01:24:15,880 --> 01:24:18,280 Speaker 2: Let's see a lot of I can't wait to see. 1741 01:24:18,680 --> 01:24:21,080 Speaker 5: I'm excited to see what the future looks like. 1742 01:24:21,560 --> 01:24:24,160 Speaker 2: Noble's bill voom. We're going to see a lot of 1743 01:24:24,240 --> 01:24:26,400 Speaker 2: boom players in the second half of the season. 1744 01:24:26,520 --> 01:24:28,599 Speaker 6: And one other thing I'll add, if the Pacers were 1745 01:24:28,680 --> 01:24:31,960 Speaker 6: to lose their pick again five through nine, then they 1746 01:24:32,000 --> 01:24:38,160 Speaker 6: would send a twenty thirty one unprotected pick to the Clippers. 1747 01:24:38,240 --> 01:24:41,519 Speaker 6: They know they're sending twenty twenty nine unprotected, And I 1748 01:24:41,560 --> 01:24:43,680 Speaker 6: can hear people out there say, hey, twenty thirty one, 1749 01:24:43,880 --> 01:24:47,360 Speaker 6: I probably won't even be around. Okay, that's fine, I 1750 01:24:47,479 --> 01:24:50,080 Speaker 6: get that that's really far out. But how do these 1751 01:24:50,160 --> 01:24:53,479 Speaker 6: trades happen? How did you get Pascal Siakam? How do 1752 01:24:53,520 --> 01:24:56,160 Speaker 6: you get a Vita Zubats? You get them with future 1753 01:24:56,200 --> 01:25:00,040 Speaker 6: first round picks. So it limits you in the the 1754 01:25:00,160 --> 01:25:03,720 Speaker 6: amount of these sorts of deals. And maybe they are done. 1755 01:25:03,840 --> 01:25:05,680 Speaker 6: Maybe this is it, and maybe we're looking at their core. 1756 01:25:06,320 --> 01:25:08,360 Speaker 6: And if they don't get that lottery pick next year, 1757 01:25:08,800 --> 01:25:11,519 Speaker 6: that's probably a true statement. We're looking at their core now. 1758 01:25:12,320 --> 01:25:14,240 Speaker 6: I think it's difficult to try and wheel and deal 1759 01:25:14,320 --> 01:25:16,840 Speaker 6: your way into other roster tweaking. 1760 01:25:17,280 --> 01:25:20,200 Speaker 2: All right, coming up at a moment, will take anything. No, 1761 01:25:20,360 --> 01:25:21,000 Speaker 2: I think you're good. 1762 01:25:21,200 --> 01:25:22,880 Speaker 6: I think you did a great job explaining that. 1763 01:25:23,360 --> 01:25:23,680 Speaker 5: There you go. 1764 01:25:24,640 --> 01:25:26,519 Speaker 6: I mean that ALTI I think you guys are lying. 1765 01:25:26,560 --> 01:25:27,000 Speaker 2: You feel better. 1766 01:25:27,120 --> 01:25:28,360 Speaker 5: No, that was what you did well. 1767 01:25:28,880 --> 01:25:32,200 Speaker 2: I didn't interrupt you, no corrections.

Very deserving. 1837 01:29:10,680 --> 01:29:12,840 Speaker 6: I felt like first ballot, to be honest with you, 1838 01:29:13,120 --> 01:29:16,120 Speaker 6: but I understand where we're at from a voting process. 1839 01:29:16,520 --> 01:29:18,760 Speaker 6: Let's move to Reggie Wayne. You mentioned it in your 1840 01:29:18,800 --> 01:29:21,760 Speaker 6: piece on CBS four Fox fifty nine that Reggie did 1841 01:29:21,800 --> 01:29:25,160 Speaker 6: not even crack the top ten. So you have fifteen finalists, 1842 01:29:25,400 --> 01:29:27,200 Speaker 6: you cut it to ten, then he cut it to seven. 1843 01:29:27,240 --> 01:29:29,639 Speaker 6: You vote from there. He did not get the cut 1844 01:29:29,720 --> 01:29:34,160 Speaker 6: to ten. Safe to say, Chap that, unfortunately we're going 1845 01:29:34,240 --> 01:29:36,599 Speaker 6: to be waiting quite a while for Reggie Wayne's name 1846 01:29:36,640 --> 01:29:37,840 Speaker 6: to be announced into the Hall of Fame. 1847 01:29:38,680 --> 01:29:41,880 Speaker 11: Well, we already had. This is seven years in waiting, 1848 01:29:43,160 --> 01:29:47,479 Speaker 11: and it, Yeah, it frustrates me. I'm the one. I'm 1849 01:29:47,680 --> 01:29:50,320 Speaker 11: the guy that you know, the local market guy, kind 1850 01:29:50,360 --> 01:29:54,439 Speaker 11: of presents each guy who's eligibol and I've done it 1851 01:29:54,560 --> 01:29:58,600 Speaker 11: with Boring and Peyton was pretty easy, but Edren and 1852 01:29:58,760 --> 01:30:03,800 Speaker 11: Freeny it's and we're not allowed to talk about what 1853 01:30:04,200 --> 01:30:06,479 Speaker 11: the debate in the room, so there's some things I 1854 01:30:06,560 --> 01:30:11,120 Speaker 11: can't say. But all I will say is nationally, Reggie's 1855 01:30:11,160 --> 01:30:14,519 Speaker 11: looked at as a really good player, but not a 1856 01:30:14,640 --> 01:30:17,920 Speaker 11: cut above. And I don't know where that comes from, 1857 01:30:18,120 --> 01:30:23,840 Speaker 11: whether whether other selectors hold it against Reggie that that 1858 01:30:24,960 --> 01:30:30,280 Speaker 11: he most of his career was with Peyton and Andrew Luck, 1859 01:30:32,240 --> 01:30:34,759 Speaker 11: or or that they've already got a slew of guys 1860 01:30:34,840 --> 01:30:36,400 Speaker 11: in and you know by the way, you guys only 1861 01:30:36,439 --> 01:30:40,840 Speaker 11: won one Super Bowl for crying out loud, I don't know, uh, 1862 01:30:41,960 --> 01:30:45,080 Speaker 11: But the way that we've we won't go too deep 1863 01:30:45,160 --> 01:30:46,760 Speaker 11: in the weeds, but the way that we've cut it 1864 01:30:46,880 --> 01:30:52,479 Speaker 11: back from generally five guys getting in, uh to where 1865 01:30:52,880 --> 01:30:54,960 Speaker 11: last year was three, this year was four, which I 1866 01:30:55,080 --> 01:30:59,080 Speaker 11: was pleasantly surprised by the way we've We've we've changed 1867 01:30:59,120 --> 01:31:03,080 Speaker 11: the voting to we go from fifteen to ten to seven, 1868 01:31:03,120 --> 01:31:04,640 Speaker 11: and we used to go from fifteen to ten to 1869 01:31:04,720 --> 01:31:06,559 Speaker 11: five and then you voted just or knowing the guys, 1870 01:31:07,160 --> 01:31:09,080 Speaker 11: and they got in unless you had a real well, 1871 01:31:09,600 --> 01:31:11,479 Speaker 11: they got in because it would take eleven guys to 1872 01:31:11,840 --> 01:31:15,559 Speaker 11: say no. But now you cut to seven and then 1873 01:31:15,600 --> 01:31:19,240 Speaker 11: we vote, we only vote for five, so it's hard. 1874 01:31:19,320 --> 01:31:21,240 Speaker 11: It's really gonna be hard to get five in. I 1875 01:31:21,320 --> 01:31:23,880 Speaker 11: don't think we will because of the math doesn't work 1876 01:31:25,000 --> 01:31:27,760 Speaker 11: getting forward with good. But the problem we right into 1877 01:31:27,880 --> 01:31:30,640 Speaker 11: is when you get a couple of guys who are 1878 01:31:30,720 --> 01:31:33,240 Speaker 11: gonna gobble up a lot of the vote. I kind 1879 01:31:33,280 --> 01:31:36,479 Speaker 11: of think Breeze and Fitzgerald did that this year. It 1880 01:31:36,680 --> 01:31:40,639 Speaker 11: makes it hard to spread to other guys. Although again, 1881 01:31:40,760 --> 01:31:44,680 Speaker 11: two guys did get eighty percent for this group, so 1882 01:31:45,160 --> 01:31:48,120 Speaker 11: you're gonna get the I hate to use the word headliners, 1883 01:31:48,200 --> 01:31:50,800 Speaker 11: but those guys, you know coming up, we've got Tom Brady, 1884 01:31:50,840 --> 01:31:55,320 Speaker 11: we've got ground Cask, Adrian Peterson in people like that, 1885 01:31:56,240 --> 01:31:58,479 Speaker 11: they're gonna be like, oh, well, we're gonna vote for 1886 01:31:58,560 --> 01:32:03,960 Speaker 11: him because because well, that pushes those guys who who 1887 01:32:04,320 --> 01:32:08,639 Speaker 11: might be a rung below, you know, guys who certainly 1888 01:32:08,680 --> 01:32:11,000 Speaker 11: deserve to be in the Hall of Fame. But with 1889 01:32:11,520 --> 01:32:14,240 Speaker 11: I think it's Reggie, it's Tory Holt, it's people Willie 1890 01:32:14,280 --> 01:32:17,679 Speaker 11: Anderson from the Bengals Jeff Hobbson like me, he's going 1891 01:32:17,800 --> 01:32:21,439 Speaker 11: crazy trying to figure out new wayssent his guy. Uh, 1892 01:32:22,200 --> 01:32:22,880 Speaker 11: it's gonna be hard. 1893 01:32:22,960 --> 01:32:23,680 Speaker 5: It just is. 1894 01:32:23,800 --> 01:32:25,920 Speaker 11: I've I've had long talks with Reggie about it, and 1895 01:32:26,479 --> 01:32:29,840 Speaker 11: he's frustrated, almost to the point of that he's just 1896 01:32:30,360 --> 01:32:32,960 Speaker 11: he doesn't want to talk about it. You've been out 1897 01:32:32,960 --> 01:32:34,479 Speaker 11: there when we've talked to Reggie about the Hall of 1898 01:32:34,560 --> 01:32:38,080 Speaker 11: Fame and right, it's been less and less enthusiastic. 1899 01:32:38,520 --> 01:32:41,439 Speaker 6: And you you used didn't you use Belichick one year? Like? 1900 01:32:41,600 --> 01:32:44,840 Speaker 6: What wasn't Belichick really high in his Reggie Price? Oh? 1901 01:32:44,840 --> 01:32:47,600 Speaker 11: Remember, Yeah, that's where Reggie sort of ended. Remember he 1902 01:32:47,680 --> 01:32:51,360 Speaker 11: went to New England for English training camp in fifteen 1903 01:32:51,439 --> 01:32:52,920 Speaker 11: I think it was or whatever year it was. 1904 01:32:53,680 --> 01:32:53,800 Speaker 6: Uh. 1905 01:32:54,000 --> 01:32:59,000 Speaker 11: Yeah, That's why I say there's this notion that that 1906 01:32:59,200 --> 01:33:03,120 Speaker 11: he really good, but he is. It's his numbers. If 1907 01:33:03,160 --> 01:33:07,000 Speaker 11: he saw Peter King's video the other day, I don't 1908 01:33:07,000 --> 01:33:09,360 Speaker 11: know whose podcast he was on. I don't callow him 1909 01:33:09,360 --> 01:33:10,960 Speaker 11: that close to but he just sort of said, you know, 1910 01:33:11,680 --> 01:33:14,360 Speaker 11: Tory Holton, Reggie Wayne, you know, very very good players, 1911 01:33:14,439 --> 01:33:17,760 Speaker 11: but they didn't have those signature moments and all that, 1912 01:33:17,960 --> 01:33:23,160 Speaker 11: and and I call bs on that. I'm still I 1913 01:33:23,280 --> 01:33:26,599 Speaker 11: still brestle over the fact that Andrey Johnson. We allowed 1914 01:33:26,640 --> 01:33:29,639 Speaker 11: Andre Johnson to jump the line, you know, a couple 1915 01:33:29,640 --> 01:33:32,680 Speaker 11: of years ago, several years ago, Calvin Johnson again, you're 1916 01:33:32,840 --> 01:33:35,720 Speaker 11: you're in the room, and you know, Marvin Harrison had 1917 01:33:35,720 --> 01:33:38,960 Speaker 11: to wait three years, which is ridiculous because you know, 1918 01:33:39,040 --> 01:33:41,439 Speaker 11: we had to get We got Andre Reid in his 1919 01:33:41,600 --> 01:33:46,120 Speaker 11: first year. The second year we voted in uh, Tim Brown, 1920 01:33:46,439 --> 01:33:50,920 Speaker 11: and then Marvin. That's ridiculous. But now we've got We've 1921 01:33:50,960 --> 01:33:55,519 Speaker 11: had Isaac Bruce, Tory Holton, Reggie Wayne, and we got 1922 01:33:56,320 --> 01:34:00,360 Speaker 11: Isaac Bruce in and then it was going to be well, next, next, 1923 01:34:00,439 --> 01:34:02,240 Speaker 11: and that's the way it works. And then well, Calvin 1924 01:34:02,280 --> 01:34:05,719 Speaker 11: Johnson was eligible. Well, Calvin Johnson was He was special. 1925 01:34:06,320 --> 01:34:09,559 Speaker 11: You know, you don't be called megatron just you're a guy. 1926 01:34:09,840 --> 01:34:13,400 Speaker 11: You're that good. So I understood that. But then Andre 1927 01:34:13,560 --> 01:34:15,840 Speaker 11: Johnson came up a couple of years ago. And I'm 1928 01:34:15,880 --> 01:34:19,800 Speaker 11: not dismissing Andre Johnson at all. His numbers are so 1929 01:34:20,000 --> 01:34:25,280 Speaker 11: similar to Reggie and and Tory Holt, but Reggie are better, 1930 01:34:25,360 --> 01:34:28,760 Speaker 11: and Reggie has the playoffs that are undeniable. And we 1931 01:34:28,960 --> 01:34:31,559 Speaker 11: voted Andrey Johnson in ahead of Reggie and Tory Holt, 1932 01:34:31,840 --> 01:34:36,200 Speaker 11: which I just didn't agree with. And I knew then. 1933 01:34:36,479 --> 01:34:38,840 Speaker 11: I knew then that it was going to be a 1934 01:34:38,960 --> 01:34:42,080 Speaker 11: tough haul for Reggie to get in, just because I 1935 01:34:42,200 --> 01:34:45,519 Speaker 11: know the process and I know the guys. The fifteen 1936 01:34:45,600 --> 01:34:49,920 Speaker 11: guys we put up every year are our upper tier players. 1937 01:34:49,960 --> 01:34:53,040 Speaker 11: I don't care what Deon Sanders says about we're letting 1938 01:34:53,080 --> 01:34:55,120 Speaker 11: too many guys, and it's easy to say that when 1939 01:34:55,120 --> 01:34:59,639 Speaker 11: you're already in. But I just I'm worried about Reggie 1940 01:34:59,640 --> 01:35:04,439 Speaker 11: getting in, and I am what he needs to do 1941 01:35:04,680 --> 01:35:07,240 Speaker 11: is and I know he's frustrated with it is because 1942 01:35:07,600 --> 01:35:09,479 Speaker 11: at some point he may say, just get me off 1943 01:35:09,520 --> 01:35:11,760 Speaker 11: the ballot, give me out. And if you guys have 1944 01:35:11,880 --> 01:35:13,880 Speaker 11: done that, which doesn't mean you're off the ballot, but 1945 01:35:14,840 --> 01:35:18,360 Speaker 11: but it's better to be one of the fifteen every 1946 01:35:18,439 --> 01:35:22,160 Speaker 11: year than to be than not to be, because then 1947 01:35:22,240 --> 01:35:25,760 Speaker 11: you're sort of forgotten and then everything moves on. John 1948 01:35:25,880 --> 01:35:29,200 Speaker 11: Lynch is Hall of Famer and he got in on 1949 01:35:29,360 --> 01:35:33,280 Speaker 11: his nineties in his ninth year, after ninth straight, in 1950 01:35:33,360 --> 01:35:37,599 Speaker 11: his ninth straight finals appearance. So but it's just hard 1951 01:35:37,640 --> 01:35:40,160 Speaker 11: to and and it's it's gonna be hard for those 1952 01:35:40,320 --> 01:35:46,360 Speaker 11: guys who aren't aren't the upper upper guys. And just 1953 01:35:46,400 --> 01:35:48,280 Speaker 11: because you're not one of the upper upper guys. And 1954 01:35:48,360 --> 01:35:50,960 Speaker 11: reggiees dog out of reggiees darned close to those guys. 1955 01:35:51,040 --> 01:35:51,280 Speaker 6: He is. 1956 01:35:52,000 --> 01:35:52,439 Speaker 5: He just is. 1957 01:35:52,560 --> 01:35:55,640 Speaker 11: Look at look at the numbers.

What is the second in yards? I 1978 01:36:53,240 --> 01:36:54,680 Speaker 11: think he's second in touchdowns. 1979 01:36:54,720 --> 01:36:56,840 Speaker 2: I play behind Brady is All and. 1980 01:36:58,320 --> 01:37:00,240 Speaker 11: I don't have all of his numbers because I do 1981 01:37:00,280 --> 01:37:03,080 Speaker 11: anything with him. But there's only a handful of guys 1982 01:37:03,120 --> 01:37:05,360 Speaker 11: that have thrown for five thousand yards of the season, 1983 01:37:06,680 --> 01:37:08,439 Speaker 11: and he's done it like a couple of times or 1984 01:37:08,479 --> 01:37:12,840 Speaker 11: three times whatever it is, seventy percent his completion percentage 1985 01:37:14,240 --> 01:37:18,080 Speaker 11: rolling out of bed. That wasn't a surprise, and it 1986 01:37:18,240 --> 01:37:21,479 Speaker 11: was funny. You think about time and place. Remember when 1987 01:37:21,520 --> 01:37:25,800 Speaker 11: he was with the Chargers and his last year there. 1988 01:37:25,800 --> 01:37:28,160 Speaker 11: As it turned out, he one of the last games 1989 01:37:28,240 --> 01:37:31,559 Speaker 11: he had that shoulder injury. He was tackled in the whatever. 1990 01:37:31,600 --> 01:37:33,960 Speaker 11: It was near the end of the season, and he 1991 01:37:34,040 --> 01:37:36,600 Speaker 11: had to rehab all off season. And that's before he 1992 01:37:36,640 --> 01:37:39,000 Speaker 11: went to the Saints. He had to try out a 1993 01:37:39,080 --> 01:37:46,519 Speaker 11: workout with Amami Dolphins and they wouldn't or didn't clary medically. 1994 01:37:46,640 --> 01:37:49,519 Speaker 11: So then he goes to New Orleans. Can you imagine, 1995 01:37:49,680 --> 01:37:55,519 Speaker 11: I mean, how things might have would have changed for Breeze. 1996 01:37:55,560 --> 01:37:59,560 Speaker 11: Certainly but two franchises and if instead he instead of 1997 01:37:59,600 --> 01:38:02,640 Speaker 11: going to the Sainty, goes to the Dolphins, so what 1998 01:38:02,800 --> 01:38:07,000 Speaker 11: a great career. I remember I met him. It was 1999 01:38:07,240 --> 01:38:10,200 Speaker 11: whatever the year he came out from Purdue with and 2000 01:38:10,320 --> 01:38:13,680 Speaker 11: going into the combine. I drove up to Westlafaiette and 2001 01:38:13,800 --> 01:38:15,960 Speaker 11: sat in the office and talked to him for a while. 2002 01:38:16,600 --> 01:38:19,800 Speaker 11: Such a I don't think he's changed much. Such a 2003 01:38:20,080 --> 01:38:23,519 Speaker 11: personal guy, and it gives he gives time. He knows 2004 01:38:23,640 --> 01:38:28,800 Speaker 11: there's a responsibility when you're that guy, whether it's the 2005 01:38:28,920 --> 01:38:32,320 Speaker 11: quarterback a Perdue or a quarterback with the Saints or 2006 01:38:32,320 --> 01:38:35,120 Speaker 11: a Hall of Fame guy. Jeff Duncan, the guy from 2007 01:38:35,200 --> 01:38:38,080 Speaker 11: New Orleans, the media guy that presented him and covered 2008 01:38:38,120 --> 01:38:41,800 Speaker 11: him in the Saints posted that you know how you 2009 01:38:41,880 --> 01:38:44,400 Speaker 11: know Breeze was in form last night. He did all 2010 01:38:44,479 --> 01:38:47,880 Speaker 11: the interviews on TV and you did all the local 2011 01:38:47,960 --> 01:38:50,120 Speaker 11: TVs from New Orleans that went there, and then he 2012 01:38:50,200 --> 01:38:54,160 Speaker 11: had time for each of the the individual media guys 2013 01:38:54,240 --> 01:38:57,400 Speaker 11: from the Saints that cover that cover him, that cover 2014 01:38:57,520 --> 01:39:00,519 Speaker 11: the Saints.

You know, 2020 01:39:17,040 --> 01:39:20,120 Speaker 11: you matter Peyton the same way. So, uh, those are 2021 01:39:20,200 --> 01:39:22,240 Speaker 11: special guys. The Hall of Fame is a special place. 2022 01:39:22,320 --> 01:39:25,040 Speaker 11: I know it got out of whack two weeks ago. 2023 01:39:26,240 --> 01:39:29,559 Speaker 11: But until until we come up with a better process, 2024 01:39:29,680 --> 01:39:32,240 Speaker 11: this is what we have and we'll work with it. 2025 01:39:32,760 --> 01:39:36,639 Speaker 6: Chap last one and again we we definitely appreciate the time.

You mentioned a couple of 2028 01:39:42,520 --> 01:39:44,680 Speaker 6: weeks ago, we didn't see Robert Kraft get in. We 2029 01:39:44,760 --> 01:39:47,760 Speaker 6: didn't see Bill Belichick get in. One it sounded like 2030 01:39:47,800 --> 01:39:51,080 Speaker 6: you got a call from one of those individuals this week, 2031 01:39:51,120 --> 01:39:53,599 Speaker 6: if you don't mind sharing that story. And then two, 2032 01:39:54,479 --> 01:39:56,519 Speaker 6: how do owners get on the Hall of Fame ballot? 2033 01:39:57,920 --> 01:40:00,920 Speaker 11: They just have they just had. We we have subcommittees 2034 01:40:00,960 --> 01:40:05,400 Speaker 11: and you know contributors which are owners and it's uh uh. 2035 01:40:06,720 --> 01:40:08,920 Speaker 11: John Madden might have gone in as sort of a 2036 01:40:09,640 --> 01:40:15,280 Speaker 11: hybrid because of his the Madden stuff and TV or broadcasting, 2037 01:40:15,560 --> 01:40:17,800 Speaker 11: and he was a hell of a coach and then 2038 01:40:17,920 --> 01:40:20,920 Speaker 11: senior players and then and in modern era, so they 2039 01:40:21,200 --> 01:40:24,360 Speaker 11: whittled it down. Uh, And this was people were wrong. 2040 01:40:24,479 --> 01:40:26,680 Speaker 11: This was not Kraft's first time as a finalist. He 2041 01:40:26,800 --> 01:40:29,640 Speaker 11: was a finalist like ten years ago, I think it was, 2042 01:40:29,680 --> 01:40:32,240 Speaker 11: and didn't get in obviously, But then you know, we 2043 01:40:32,320 --> 01:40:34,840 Speaker 11: got Jerry Jones in, we got a lot of owners, 2044 01:40:34,920 --> 01:40:37,479 Speaker 11: are in, a lot of GMS, are in Bill Pollon. 2045 01:40:38,360 --> 01:40:38,479 Speaker 5: Uh. 2046 01:40:38,760 --> 01:40:41,040 Speaker 11: But no, I got it. Yeah. It's funny all the 2047 01:40:41,600 --> 01:40:44,120 Speaker 11: stuff happened with where I didn't vote for Belichick, and 2048 01:40:44,160 --> 01:40:47,360 Speaker 11: it was primarily Spygate. I mean, I think if your 2049 01:40:47,439 --> 01:40:51,080 Speaker 11: first ballot guy, a first ballot guy, it needs to 2050 01:40:51,120 --> 01:40:53,919 Speaker 11: be your bio needs to be clean, as clean as possible. 2051 01:40:54,400 --> 01:40:57,000 Speaker 11: Peyton and Vinnie Vinni should have gone in last year 2052 01:40:57,000 --> 01:41:00,679 Speaker 11: in my mind, Brett Farr and those those type of things. 2053 01:41:01,479 --> 01:41:01,599 Speaker 6: Uh. 2054 01:41:02,400 --> 01:41:05,640 Speaker 11: And and Belchick at Spygate. And it's not like it 2055 01:41:05,760 --> 01:41:10,200 Speaker 11: was alleged. He was disciplined by the league for five 2056 01:41:10,280 --> 01:41:14,320 Speaker 11: hundred thousand dollars and and they were doctor first round 2057 01:41:14,360 --> 01:41:14,800 Speaker 11: draft pick. 2058 01:41:14,920 --> 01:41:15,960 Speaker 2: So that's why. 2059 01:41:16,360 --> 01:41:19,400 Speaker 11: And then I did vote for Craft. So last week 2060 01:41:19,479 --> 01:41:20,160 Speaker 11: I'm sitting there. 2061 01:41:20,760 --> 01:41:21,320 Speaker 5: No, it was this week. 2062 01:41:21,439 --> 01:41:23,640 Speaker 11: It was on Monday and I got it. I got 2063 01:41:23,720 --> 01:41:27,120 Speaker 11: a call with the New England area area code and 2064 01:41:27,280 --> 01:41:30,719 Speaker 11: I was probably not up yet because it's like eight thirty. 2065 01:41:31,560 --> 01:41:33,920 Speaker 11: I called it back and it was it was the 2066 01:41:34,640 --> 01:41:37,640 Speaker 11: guy didn't answer, but it was the PR guy for 2067 01:41:37,720 --> 01:41:40,000 Speaker 11: the for the Patriot that thought, oh crap, somebody's got 2068 01:41:40,120 --> 01:41:43,040 Speaker 11: to call and read me their Riot Act. Well, they 2069 01:41:43,120 --> 01:41:46,600 Speaker 11: called me back two days ago and it was it 2070 01:41:46,720 --> 01:41:48,519 Speaker 11: was Stacy James PR guy. I said, yeah, I've got 2071 01:41:48,520 --> 01:41:50,080 Speaker 11: somebody want to talk to you. I get I'm thinking, 2072 01:41:50,160 --> 01:41:50,599 Speaker 11: oh crap. 2073 01:41:51,200 --> 01:41:51,600 Speaker 2: Well it was. 2074 01:41:51,680 --> 01:41:54,599 Speaker 11: It was a Robber Craft and we talked for ten 2075 01:41:54,680 --> 01:41:56,680 Speaker 11: minutes and he just wanted to thank me for his 2076 01:41:57,280 --> 01:41:59,920 Speaker 11: for the support, and he was what he was. Probably 2077 01:42:00,080 --> 01:42:02,360 Speaker 11: it was lobbying for the next time he's on the 2078 01:42:02,439 --> 01:42:04,559 Speaker 11: on the ballot, which is fine, which is fine. 2079 01:42:04,360 --> 01:42:05,320 Speaker 6: But he didn't have to do that. 2080 01:42:05,520 --> 01:42:07,479 Speaker 11: And I did tell him that, you know, yeah, I 2081 01:42:07,600 --> 01:42:10,320 Speaker 11: voted for you because you deserved it, and even though 2082 01:42:10,400 --> 01:42:14,400 Speaker 11: you are the overseer of the Evil Empire, I said, so, 2083 01:42:14,680 --> 01:42:18,200 Speaker 11: you know, I did. Let I didn't let that hold 2084 01:42:18,240 --> 01:42:21,439 Speaker 11: me back on voting for you, but you know it's 2085 01:42:21,760 --> 01:42:24,200 Speaker 11: it's that's where it gets hard is when you're when 2086 01:42:24,680 --> 01:42:28,960 Speaker 11: with this process, You're you're debating an owner of all 2087 01:42:29,000 --> 01:42:31,160 Speaker 11: these Super Bowls and a coach with all these wins 2088 01:42:31,200 --> 01:42:34,479 Speaker 11: and all these Super Bowls against against players. It's just 2089 01:42:34,920 --> 01:42:39,240 Speaker 11: I tend to lead towards players anyway. Just because it 2090 01:42:39,320 --> 01:42:41,760 Speaker 11: was a little different with Craft, I thought, and it 2091 01:42:42,000 --> 01:42:44,080 Speaker 11: will be next you with Belichick because he gets in 2092 01:42:44,240 --> 01:42:48,000 Speaker 11: next year. He does. I'm positive of that as positive 2093 01:42:48,040 --> 01:42:50,880 Speaker 11: I can be. But it was it was always cool 2094 01:42:50,920 --> 01:42:56,080 Speaker 11: to at least they they paid attention and I all 2095 01:42:56,160 --> 01:42:58,439 Speaker 11: of our votes are supposed to be secret. We can 2096 01:42:59,200 --> 01:43:02,280 Speaker 11: tell who we've for who you want. I'm really going 2097 01:43:02,360 --> 01:43:05,240 Speaker 11: to be curious if if I ever find out who 2098 01:43:06,160 --> 01:43:08,280 Speaker 11: the people who did not vote for Belichick are. And 2099 01:43:09,080 --> 01:43:10,560 Speaker 11: we're going to have our meeting coming up in a 2100 01:43:10,600 --> 01:43:12,840 Speaker 11: couple of weeks to kind of rehash things, and I 2101 01:43:13,000 --> 01:43:14,680 Speaker 11: don't think they're going to tell us. I don't think 2102 01:43:14,720 --> 01:43:17,920 Speaker 11: people are going to admit who it was. I did 2103 01:43:18,040 --> 01:43:20,920 Speaker 11: mine just because I got tired of the backlash and 2104 01:43:21,200 --> 01:43:23,320 Speaker 11: some of the supporters, some of them selectors, well, I 2105 01:43:23,439 --> 01:43:26,000 Speaker 11: voted for Belichick and him not getting in with is 2106 01:43:26,040 --> 01:43:29,400 Speaker 11: an embarrassment, whether they're they're calling my my non voter 2107 01:43:29,479 --> 01:43:33,960 Speaker 11: and embarrassment and I didn't appreciate that, but we'll see. 2108 01:43:34,600 --> 01:43:38,280 Speaker 11: Uh it's again, like I say, it's a flawed system. 2109 01:43:38,400 --> 01:43:42,759 Speaker 11: Every system is flawed. Uh, baseball and all that basketball, 2110 01:43:42,800 --> 01:43:45,640 Speaker 11: they're flawed. And until you've got a better idea, this 2111 01:43:45,840 --> 01:43:47,800 Speaker 11: is what we'll go with. But yeah, it's pretty cool 2112 01:43:47,840 --> 01:43:51,880 Speaker 11: talking to Robert Craft and you know, fortunately, and it's funny. 2113 01:43:51,920 --> 01:43:54,960 Speaker 11: I'm doing a follow up story on Vinnie today about 2114 01:43:54,960 --> 01:43:57,559 Speaker 11: how it began in New England and his first coach 2115 01:43:57,720 --> 01:44:01,800 Speaker 11: was Bill Parcells. There's a whole coach and I got 2116 01:44:01,800 --> 01:44:03,519 Speaker 11: a hold of him and talking to him about Vinnie, 2117 01:44:03,560 --> 01:44:06,680 Speaker 11: and Vinnie talked about how he was he was a 2118 01:44:06,800 --> 01:44:09,439 Speaker 11: scared rookie every time he went out there in ninety 2119 01:44:09,479 --> 01:44:12,280 Speaker 11: six because he thought he's gonna get cut.

We desperately need a quality, 2172 01:46:44,640 --> 01:46:47,880 Speaker 10: high level starting center. We believe Zubats is the top 2173 01:46:47,960 --> 01:46:52,080 Speaker 10: ten center in the NBA. Conversations on this deal went 2174 01:46:52,160 --> 01:46:55,920 Speaker 10: on for many days, and I would assume longer. This 2175 01:46:56,080 --> 01:46:59,240 Speaker 10: is a great opportunity for all players involved. Ben has 2176 01:46:59,280 --> 01:47:02,840 Speaker 10: grown so much as a player, Isaiah the same. I mean, 2177 01:47:02,920 --> 01:47:06,840 Speaker 10: these guys are homegrown Indiana pacer products.

You know, 2180 01:47:12,040 --> 01:47:15,120 Speaker 10: as we speak, these two guys are in the best 2181 01:47:15,200 --> 01:47:17,800 Speaker 10: possible position that they could be in to move on 2182 01:47:17,960 --> 01:47:20,640 Speaker 10: to the next opportunity and really flourish. And that's what 2183 01:47:20,800 --> 01:47:23,519 Speaker 10: we hope for them. And uh, certainly we hope the 2184 01:47:23,600 --> 01:47:27,519 Speaker 10: trade goes through and everything works out, but we're excited 2185 01:47:27,600 --> 01:47:30,479 Speaker 10: to get Zubos And Kobe Brown's a young player that 2186 01:47:30,720 --> 01:47:32,479 Speaker 10: people don't know a whole lot about, but this would 2187 01:47:32,479 --> 01:47:33,599 Speaker 10: be a great opportunity for him. 2188 01:47:34,760 --> 01:47:37,839 Speaker 5: So that's Rick Carlisle calling into the ride with JAMV 2189 01:47:38,080 --> 01:47:41,040 Speaker 5: yesterday to talk about this, and for a moment, Kevin, 2190 01:47:41,080 --> 01:47:44,920 Speaker 5: you're a little upset that Rick called JMV automatically is 2191 01:47:44,960 --> 01:47:45,639 Speaker 5: usually our guy. 2192 01:47:45,880 --> 01:47:48,439 Speaker 6: Right, Well, no, I think I was Mark that texted 2193 01:47:48,560 --> 01:47:51,280 Speaker 6: us is Rick cheating on us? So Mark, you know, 2194 01:47:51,520 --> 01:47:54,080 Speaker 6: Mark's been all about integrity this week, from Jeff's cheating 2195 01:47:54,160 --> 01:47:57,679 Speaker 6: to essentially Rick Carlisle. Yeah, I've been bruised and battered 2196 01:47:57,760 --> 01:48:00,519 Speaker 6: this week. Former jes fire away. 2197 01:48:01,000 --> 01:48:05,160 Speaker 8: Rick's cheating on us. Boy, you're talking about bottles of bourbon. 2198 01:48:05,200 --> 01:48:06,880 Speaker 8: It might be hitting the sauce later today. 2199 01:48:07,000 --> 01:48:09,720 Speaker 5: Just to cope with my feelings, I had to file 2200 01:48:09,760 --> 01:48:12,599 Speaker 5: a protest with the NCAA because you know they'll ignored 2201 01:48:12,640 --> 01:48:17,320 Speaker 5: as much as anybody else, I suppose. So Also yesterday 2202 01:48:18,240 --> 01:48:20,720 Speaker 5: there was as we just got done talking about Adam Vini, 2203 01:48:20,840 --> 01:48:23,360 Speaker 5: Terry voted into the Hall of Fame, the former cult 2204 01:48:23,439 --> 01:48:26,719 Speaker 5: getting in along with Drew Brees, Larry Fitzgerald, Roger Craig, 2205 01:48:26,880 --> 01:48:27,599 Speaker 5: Luke Keikley. 2206 01:48:28,080 --> 01:48:30,720 Speaker 2: Wait continues for Reggie Wayne and Frank Gore. 2207 01:48:31,080 --> 01:48:34,080 Speaker 5: And we'll see maybe a better shot down the road 2208 01:48:34,120 --> 01:48:35,519 Speaker 5: for Frank Gore than Reggie Wayne. 2209 01:48:35,320 --> 01:48:37,120 Speaker 6: You think, yeah, I mean, based off what Chap said, 2210 01:48:37,160 --> 01:48:39,000 Speaker 6: you know, Reggie didn't even make the top ten Frank 2211 01:48:39,080 --> 01:48:41,559 Speaker 6: Gore did. I think you're going to see more albeit 2212 01:48:41,760 --> 01:48:43,639 Speaker 6: Adrian Peterson next year. I think you're going to see 2213 01:48:43,680 --> 01:48:47,679 Speaker 6: more wide receivers having strong resumes. Tory Holt, I would 2214 01:48:47,720 --> 01:48:50,840 Speaker 6: say is still probably above Reggie based off everything Chap 2215 01:48:50,880 --> 01:48:53,640 Speaker 6: has shared. So yeah, I think it's gonna If you 2216 01:48:53,680 --> 01:48:58,599 Speaker 6: want your next Colt, I would say, Gore and then Wayne. 2217 01:49:00,000 --> 01:49:00,679 Speaker 5: All right, well waiting. 2218 01:49:00,800 --> 01:49:02,600 Speaker 8: I was looking at like Hall of Fame classes in 2219 01:49:02,640 --> 01:49:05,320 Speaker 8: the future, like like star studied in these next couple 2220 01:49:05,360 --> 01:49:08,000 Speaker 8: of years, our star study got Brady, got all these 2221 01:49:08,040 --> 01:49:10,519 Speaker 8: other guys there. I was look and I hate to 2222 01:49:10,520 --> 01:49:12,280 Speaker 8: say this, for Reggie, I was looking like twenty twenty nine, 2223 01:49:12,400 --> 01:49:16,200 Speaker 8: twenty thirty seems at the time like it's clearing up 2224 01:49:16,200 --> 01:49:18,639 Speaker 8: a little bit. So maybe then, but the boy, that's 2225 01:49:18,640 --> 01:49:19,200 Speaker 8: a long way out. 2226 01:49:19,240 --> 01:49:21,639 Speaker 6: I guess. Just remind everybody Chap said, you know, seventh 2227 01:49:21,760 --> 01:49:24,439 Speaker 6: year for Reggie, you can be on the modern ballot 2228 01:49:24,520 --> 01:49:26,880 Speaker 6: for twenty years. I want to say. John Lynch got 2229 01:49:26,920 --> 01:49:31,200 Speaker 6: in at like year nine or ten, so there is precedent. 2230 01:49:31,320 --> 01:49:33,120 Speaker 6: Not great, but just thought I mentioned him. 2231 01:49:33,400 --> 01:49:35,760 Speaker 5: NFL honors also announced last night for the twenty twenty 2232 01:49:35,800 --> 01:49:40,200 Speaker 5: five season.

I understand that if that had 2237 01:49:50,880 --> 01:49:52,840 Speaker 2: gone the other way, then Drake may would have won 2238 01:49:52,880 --> 01:49:53,400 Speaker 2: on points. 2239 01:49:53,520 --> 01:49:53,880 Speaker 11: Correct. 2240 01:49:55,000 --> 01:49:57,040 Speaker 2: I think that's how that worked last night either way. 2241 01:49:57,360 --> 01:49:59,920 Speaker 5: NFLAP Offensive Player of the Year Jackson Smith and JIGBA 2242 01:50:00,120 --> 01:50:02,280 Speaker 5: Defensive Player of the Year Miles Garrett set the sack 2243 01:50:02,360 --> 01:50:04,000 Speaker 5: record for the Browns. 2244 01:50:04,160 --> 01:50:07,200 Speaker 2: Also Pro Football Hall of Fame class. 2245 01:50:07,280 --> 01:50:09,400 Speaker 5: We just talked about that and the Walter Payton NFL 2246 01:50:09,520 --> 01:50:10,879 Speaker 5: Man of the Year Bobby Wagner. 2247 01:50:11,400 --> 01:50:12,120 Speaker 2: That's always one of my. 2248 01:50:12,160 --> 01:50:14,400 Speaker 5: Favorite awards that they passed out, just people who continue 2249 01:50:14,400 --> 01:50:16,040 Speaker 5: to do great things in their community. 2250 01:50:16,120 --> 01:50:18,840 Speaker 2: And we had a worthy guy nominated by the Colts 2251 01:50:18,880 --> 01:50:19,360 Speaker 2: this year too. 2252 01:50:19,520 --> 01:50:21,200 Speaker 6: Yeah, shout out to Kenny more than second James.

Although I do enjoy Katy Perry, 2309 01:52:55,520 --> 01:52:56,519 Speaker 6: she did not like The Coke. 2310 01:52:56,720 --> 01:52:58,400 Speaker 5: Shark was an awesome halftime show. 2311 01:52:58,560 --> 01:53:02,040 Speaker 6: You have Gaga earlier, did I do? That was a 2312 01:53:02,120 --> 01:53:02,519 Speaker 6: great one. 2313 01:53:02,880 --> 01:53:06,200 Speaker 8: There was Doctor Dre and Snoop Dogg, which I personally 2314 01:53:06,280 --> 01:53:09,000 Speaker 8: think was the best halftime show. War My Heart, Tom 2315 01:53:09,040 --> 01:53:11,560 Speaker 8: Petty in the Heart, When Minem came out, Rihanna, what 2316 01:53:11,680 --> 01:53:11,800 Speaker 8: was that? 2317 01:53:12,040 --> 01:53:13,200 Speaker 6: Was that?

Yeah 2321 01:53:21,240 --> 01:53:23,320 Speaker 2: that was that was awesome. That probably was my favorite. 2322 01:53:23,360 --> 01:53:26,240 Speaker 5: I really didn't know anything about Katy Perry until that 2323 01:53:26,320 --> 01:53:28,160 Speaker 5: halftime show. I knew that she was a pop star, 2324 01:53:28,760 --> 01:53:30,880 Speaker 5: but anybody I was all in the second I saw 2325 01:53:30,960 --> 01:53:34,200 Speaker 5: somebody riding in on a thirty foot golden lion, I'm like, 2326 01:53:34,600 --> 01:53:36,840 Speaker 5: this is what a super Bowl halftime show should start 2327 01:53:36,880 --> 01:53:37,200 Speaker 5: out as. 2328 01:53:37,320 --> 01:53:40,280 Speaker 2: Right here, and then you had the left Shark, the 2329 01:53:40,360 --> 01:53:40,840 Speaker 2: right Shark. 2330 01:53:40,880 --> 01:53:41,320 Speaker 5: It was great. 2331 01:53:41,600 --> 01:53:42,320 Speaker 6: We had the. 2332 01:53:42,479 --> 01:53:45,040 Speaker 8: Weekend that was during COVID when he got lost in 2333 01:53:45,080 --> 01:53:47,960 Speaker 8: the Hall of Mirrors. That was a fascinating one. Yeah, 2334 01:53:48,400 --> 01:53:49,760 Speaker 8: but yeah, there's some good ones lately. 2335 01:53:50,320 --> 01:53:51,000 Speaker 2: I like it all right. 2336 01:53:51,040 --> 01:53:54,479 Speaker 5: So we got super Bowl coming up. Marcus curated a 2337 01:53:54,520 --> 01:53:56,560 Speaker 5: bunch of questions for us and based on what we 2338 01:53:56,680 --> 01:53:59,400 Speaker 5: think is our predictive abilities for the super Bowl coming 2339 01:53:59,479 --> 01:54:02,800 Speaker 5: up this weekend. James, of course is gone, so Mark 2340 01:54:02,880 --> 01:54:06,040 Speaker 5: had him write his answers down and put him in 2341 01:54:06,080 --> 01:54:09,080 Speaker 5: an envelope for us so we couldn't so I couldn't 2342 01:54:09,200 --> 01:54:12,400 Speaker 5: see it. Apparently, whoa, that's where we're at at the time. 2343 01:54:12,600 --> 01:54:14,720 Speaker 6: That's something to put it in an envelope. And then 2344 01:54:14,800 --> 01:54:15,960 Speaker 6: there was going to be some big reveal. 2345 01:54:16,120 --> 01:54:18,360 Speaker 2: I'm scarred now that's all that sounds secretive? 2346 01:54:19,760 --> 01:54:22,320 Speaker 6: Write anything down? Well, because you're here here, you're present, 2347 01:54:22,760 --> 01:54:25,200 Speaker 6: you know this is just because he's not here right now. Okay, 2348 01:54:25,760 --> 01:54:28,040 Speaker 6: So we get a big James Boyd reveal coming up here. 2349 01:54:28,040 --> 01:54:30,400 Speaker 5: We got we got an envelope that open up for 2350 01:54:30,800 --> 01:54:33,120 Speaker 5: the first question here, So, Mark, what are the questions 2351 01:54:33,160 --> 01:54:34,680 Speaker 5: coming up for the super Bowl this weekend that you 2352 01:54:34,720 --> 01:54:36,640 Speaker 5: would like to be illuminated on. 2353 01:54:38,400 --> 01:54:40,080 Speaker 6: Let's get some super Bowl music going here. 2354 01:54:40,280 --> 01:54:40,680 Speaker 2: All right? 2355 01:54:41,600 --> 01:54:42,160 Speaker 6: How about this? 2356 01:54:42,640 --> 01:54:45,440 Speaker 8: This is always a favorite one on the betting scales. 2357 01:54:46,280 --> 01:54:49,080 Speaker 8: You guys are heads or tails? Guy on the coin flip. 2358 01:54:50,280 --> 01:54:56,280 Speaker 6: Heads Tail's never failed, never fails. 2359 01:54:56,560 --> 01:54:57,720 Speaker 2: All right, Let's see what James. 2360 01:54:58,160 --> 01:54:59,160 Speaker 6: I don't think he wrote that one. 2361 01:54:59,160 --> 01:55:00,840 Speaker 2: I only asked him for some Okay, they can wait 2362 01:55:00,960 --> 01:55:01,840 Speaker 2: to open up the whole thing. 2363 01:55:01,960 --> 01:55:04,240 Speaker 6: Yeah, you can't write that on his love letter to you, Mark, 2364 01:55:04,400 --> 01:55:04,920 Speaker 6: No no. 2365 01:55:07,320 --> 01:55:07,600 Speaker 12: Blue. 2366 01:55:07,840 --> 01:55:10,800 Speaker 6: I even like he handed away you pooh. 2367 01:55:11,040 --> 01:55:14,680 Speaker 2: He handed it to Scotti Johnson. Scottie gave it to him. Said, hey, 2368 01:55:15,200 --> 01:55:17,040 Speaker 2: when you see Mark, let him know I wrote this 2369 01:55:17,120 --> 01:55:17,680 Speaker 2: down for him. 2370 01:55:17,760 --> 01:55:18,080 Speaker 11: All right. 2371 01:55:18,120 --> 01:55:19,840 Speaker 8: A lot of people are saying the super Bowl might 2372 01:55:19,880 --> 01:55:22,320 Speaker 8: be a blowout. They think the Seahawks defense is just 2373 01:55:22,360 --> 01:55:25,000 Speaker 8: too good, and maybe the Patriots kind of lucked themselves 2374 01:55:25,160 --> 01:55:28,360 Speaker 8: into a Super Bowl appearance. The Patriots will keep this 2375 01:55:28,480 --> 01:55:34,440 Speaker 8: game close. How on Sunday start with Jeff got the blowout? 2376 01:55:34,600 --> 01:55:35,880 Speaker 8: Gotta win the turnover battle. 2377 01:55:36,520 --> 01:55:39,680 Speaker 5: If Sam Darnold turns the ball over, Kennath Walker drops 2378 01:55:39,720 --> 01:55:41,720 Speaker 5: it once or twice, then I think New. 2379 01:55:41,680 --> 01:55:43,200 Speaker 2: England's good enough to take advantage of that. 2380 01:55:43,400 --> 01:55:45,840 Speaker 5: I don't know that they can sustain a lot of 2381 01:55:45,880 --> 01:55:48,000 Speaker 5: offense up and down the field all day long. So 2382 01:55:48,080 --> 01:55:50,520 Speaker 5: I think it's their best chance is to win the turnover, 2383 01:55:50,560 --> 01:55:53,000 Speaker 5: get some breaks, maybe make some stops on fourth down. 2384 01:55:53,280 --> 01:55:56,000 Speaker 8: Okay, I'm going to ask to you you super Bowl 2385 01:55:56,120 --> 01:55:57,920 Speaker 8: MVP momentarily. 2386 01:55:57,680 --> 01:55:59,400 Speaker 2: Hey, we got to go to get his answer the 2387 01:55:59,600 --> 01:55:59,880 Speaker 2: go ahead. 2388 01:56:00,120 --> 01:56:02,360 Speaker 6: Well, I just think New England can be old school. 2389 01:56:02,600 --> 01:56:05,120 Speaker 6: They can run it and they can play a little 2390 01:56:05,120 --> 01:56:09,840 Speaker 6: ball control. And yeah, I find this weird position I'm in, 2391 01:56:10,000 --> 01:56:11,520 Speaker 6: like all of a sudden, trying to prop up New 2392 01:56:11,560 --> 01:56:14,000 Speaker 6: England because I just all I hear is Seattle's gonna roll. 2393 01:56:14,040 --> 01:56:15,720 Speaker 6: Seattle's going to roll, and I just don't see that. 2394 01:56:15,840 --> 01:56:18,160 Speaker 6: Maybe I'm trying to talk myself into an entertaining game, 2395 01:56:18,960 --> 01:56:20,800 Speaker 6: but I do not see that. I think Drake May 2396 01:56:20,920 --> 01:56:23,080 Speaker 6: is a far better quarterback than what we've seen here 2397 01:56:23,560 --> 01:56:26,480 Speaker 6: in some very inclement weather playoff games. 2398 01:56:26,520 --> 01:56:28,240 Speaker 8: Okay, I'm going to ask you guys your super Bowl 2399 01:56:28,320 --> 01:56:30,800 Speaker 8: MVP in a minute, But who is a dark horse 2400 01:56:31,000 --> 01:56:33,760 Speaker 8: MVP candidate? Then maybe you want to sprinkle some money 2401 01:56:33,840 --> 01:56:36,600 Speaker 8: on ahead of Sunday, maybe get some good value there, 2402 01:56:37,040 --> 01:56:39,160 Speaker 8: because this isn't just an MVP of like the league. 2403 01:56:39,200 --> 01:56:40,840 Speaker 8: You can get a defensive player, you can get a 2404 01:56:40,880 --> 01:56:42,120 Speaker 8: running back, can get a wide receiver. 2405 01:56:42,320 --> 01:56:45,000 Speaker 6: Whoever is a big game. Who is your dark horse MVP? Well, 2406 01:56:45,120 --> 01:56:47,960 Speaker 6: last time Seattle's in this game, Percy Harvin had a huge, 2407 01:56:48,120 --> 01:56:51,120 Speaker 6: huge game as a return man. So Rashid Shaheed is 2408 01:56:51,200 --> 01:56:53,480 Speaker 6: probably where I could sprinkle a little bit. Again, can 2409 01:56:53,520 --> 01:56:56,320 Speaker 6: you get outside of the box a quarterback? If Shaheed 2410 01:56:56,440 --> 01:56:59,600 Speaker 6: had a big return via special teams, which certainly we've 2411 01:56:59,640 --> 01:57:02,640 Speaker 6: seen it this market, then that could be an area 2412 01:57:02,720 --> 01:57:04,360 Speaker 6: that I think you get some pretty good juice on. 2413 01:57:05,320 --> 01:57:07,960 Speaker 2: I would probably go Kenneth Walker. 2414 01:57:08,000 --> 01:57:09,840 Speaker 5: I don't know how much of what dark horse that is, 2415 01:57:09,960 --> 01:57:11,720 Speaker 5: but I think they are going to lean on him 2416 01:57:11,800 --> 01:57:13,120 Speaker 5: quite a bit in this football game. 2417 01:57:13,400 --> 01:57:17,160 Speaker 8: I've put money on DeMarcus Lawrence at plus nine thousand. 2418 01:57:17,240 --> 01:57:18,920 Speaker 2: Thought about that, Yeah, this could be like. 2419 01:57:18,960 --> 01:57:22,960 Speaker 8: One of those guys, DeMarcus Lawrence, somebody on the Seattle defense. 2420 01:57:23,200 --> 01:57:24,960 Speaker 6: I feel like that could be a guy that maybe 2421 01:57:24,960 --> 01:57:27,120 Speaker 6: if they make Archis Jones had some big places then 2422 01:57:27,160 --> 01:57:30,880 Speaker 6: defensively this season, you know Julian Love in the second area. Yeah, 2423 01:57:31,040 --> 01:57:32,960 Speaker 6: so I could listen to that. 2424 01:57:33,120 --> 01:57:37,440 Speaker 8: Okay, your Super Bowl predictions? James did answer this question, Okay, 2425 01:57:37,640 --> 01:57:40,000 Speaker 8: who are you picking to win the game and your 2426 01:57:40,040 --> 01:57:40,640 Speaker 8: final score? 2427 01:57:40,840 --> 01:57:43,120 Speaker 5: Let's get James open this up here. 2428 01:57:43,320 --> 01:57:46,880 Speaker 2: Look at that, Oh, Patriots twenty four twenty three. 2429 01:57:47,440 --> 01:57:50,560 Speaker 6: He says, there you go, twenty three to twenty one Patriots. 2430 01:57:51,600 --> 01:57:53,400 Speaker 5: I think I made the prediction earlier this week. I'm 2431 01:57:53,400 --> 01:57:56,520 Speaker 5: stilling with it twenty three to thirteen Seahawks, and. 2432 01:57:56,600 --> 01:58:01,520 Speaker 8: I will take Seahawks thirty Patriots twenty four. That means 2433 01:58:01,560 --> 01:58:04,240 Speaker 8: your super Bowl MVP, not your dark horse. Your super 2434 01:58:04,280 --> 01:58:05,320 Speaker 8: Bowl MVP is. 2435 01:58:05,760 --> 01:58:08,000 Speaker 6: Just so easy to pick the quarterback, which I hate 2436 01:58:08,040 --> 01:58:10,760 Speaker 6: to do. You know, chrischigan Zalez is kind of intriguing 2437 01:58:10,840 --> 01:58:13,160 Speaker 6: one for me. Obviously made the huge interception there to 2438 01:58:13,200 --> 01:58:15,880 Speaker 6: ice the AFC title game. You know, could he make 2439 01:58:15,920 --> 01:58:18,560 Speaker 6: a play that changed his game? Marcus Shones is a 2440 01:58:18,600 --> 01:58:21,880 Speaker 6: return man for New England. I mean, I'll go May 2441 01:58:22,000 --> 01:58:25,160 Speaker 6: because I'm picking them, but I wish we would just 2442 01:58:25,440 --> 01:58:27,840 Speaker 6: get off only going to the quarterback and I go 2443 01:58:27,920 --> 01:58:29,680 Speaker 6: back to the cold Super Bowl Dominic Road should have 2444 01:58:29,720 --> 01:58:31,440 Speaker 6: been the MVP, not Peyton Manning. 2445 01:58:31,920 --> 01:58:35,000 Speaker 5: I'm gonna go with Jackson Smith and Jigba. He has 2446 01:58:35,080 --> 01:58:37,840 Speaker 5: had an unbelievable year. Right now, he is playing better 2447 01:58:37,920 --> 01:58:40,720 Speaker 5: than any wide receiver in the NFL. They're going to 2448 01:58:40,800 --> 01:58:43,400 Speaker 5: lean on him and Kenneth Walker. I could see him 2449 01:58:43,440 --> 01:58:47,600 Speaker 5: with a big game and just because here's the thing, though, 2450 01:58:48,760 --> 01:58:51,080 Speaker 5: are a bunch of NFL riters that have been covering 2451 01:58:51,120 --> 01:58:54,320 Speaker 5: this sport forever and ever. If Sam Darnold, even if 2452 01:58:54,520 --> 01:58:57,080 Speaker 5: Smith and Jigba has two touchdowns on one hundred and 2453 01:58:57,120 --> 01:59:01,280 Speaker 5: fifteen yards receiving, if all that comes from Sam Darnald 2454 01:59:01,320 --> 01:59:03,200 Speaker 5: and he throws for three touchdowns in two hundred and 2455 01:59:03,240 --> 01:59:04,320 Speaker 5: sixty plus yards, are. 2456 01:59:04,280 --> 01:59:06,640 Speaker 2: They not going to give him the MVP after his career. 2457 01:59:06,840 --> 01:59:08,160 Speaker 6: That's the only thing is I would love to give 2458 01:59:08,200 --> 01:59:09,720 Speaker 6: it to Jason. I feel like if he puts up 2459 01:59:09,720 --> 01:59:11,440 Speaker 6: big numbers, they're like, well, actually the guy who threw 2460 01:59:11,440 --> 01:59:13,160 Speaker 6: it to him probably should go. How does a wide 2461 01:59:13,200 --> 01:59:15,400 Speaker 6: out win it over a quarterback? They need the quarterback 2462 01:59:15,440 --> 01:59:16,920 Speaker 6: to have thrown an interception or. 2463 01:59:16,960 --> 01:59:19,360 Speaker 2: Two, or does almost all the yards go to the 2464 01:59:19,440 --> 01:59:19,840 Speaker 2: one guy? 2465 01:59:19,920 --> 01:59:21,880 Speaker 5: Maybe he has like nine catches for one hundred and 2466 01:59:22,080 --> 01:59:24,200 Speaker 5: thirty yards and ranking tackles and as a couple of 2467 01:59:24,240 --> 01:59:25,640 Speaker 5: scores or highlight reel things. 2468 01:59:25,720 --> 01:59:27,800 Speaker 6: Yeah, something like that. Maybe he's James White out of 2469 01:59:27,800 --> 01:59:28,040 Speaker 6: the back. 2470 01:59:28,240 --> 01:59:31,320 Speaker 5: I think Seattle wins, though the narrative is Sam Darnald here, 2471 01:59:31,400 --> 01:59:33,680 Speaker 5: he's come from his career to be a Super Bowl I. 2472 01:59:33,680 --> 01:59:36,280 Speaker 6: Guess trust Donald, I don't. I mean you guys picked, Yeah, 2473 01:59:36,440 --> 01:59:37,600 Speaker 6: I don't trust Donald. 2474 01:59:38,240 --> 01:59:39,640 Speaker 5: What is he giving you to not trust? 2475 01:59:39,680 --> 01:59:40,640 Speaker 2: In the last two years? 2476 01:59:41,560 --> 01:59:42,680 Speaker 6: This is a little different stage. 2477 01:59:43,800 --> 01:59:45,800 Speaker 2: He didn't play his best in the playoff game from 2478 01:59:45,800 --> 01:59:46,680 Speaker 2: Minnesota last year. 2479 01:59:46,680 --> 01:59:49,800 Speaker 5: I'll give you that, but he's been great the last 2480 01:59:49,840 --> 01:59:50,320 Speaker 5: two years. 2481 01:59:52,680 --> 01:59:54,720 Speaker 6: Still makes me a little shaky. 2482 01:59:54,760 --> 01:59:57,600 Speaker 8: On the Super Bowl, Stay James selected gen Drake may 2483 01:59:57,680 --> 01:59:59,600 Speaker 8: as his Super Bowl MVP.

Florida State, come on now. Good 2548 02:03:06,280 --> 02:03:09,880 Speaker 6: opportunity back at home. Season turns around, compet well at 2549 02:03:09,880 --> 02:03:11,960 Speaker 6: Louisville for quite a while. Seventeen and a half point 2550 02:03:12,040 --> 02:03:16,680 Speaker 6: underdog was humbling to see, but competed nicely there in 2551 02:03:16,720 --> 02:03:17,280 Speaker 6: the Yum Center. 2552 02:03:17,480 --> 02:03:20,160 Speaker 5: Be interesting to see Indiana coming off the loss to USC. 2553 02:03:20,960 --> 02:03:24,440 Speaker 5: But they'll be playing Wisconsin. Wisconsin has been playing better. 2554 02:03:24,560 --> 02:03:28,080 Speaker 5: It's at assembly haul. Indiana has been playing really well lately. 2555 02:03:28,400 --> 02:03:30,760 Speaker 5: Do they get back on the winning train against Wisconsin. 2556 02:03:30,840 --> 02:03:31,720 Speaker 5: I think they probably do. 2557 02:03:31,920 --> 02:03:35,320 Speaker 6: Yeah, you got to control home floor. You got Wisconsin tomorrow, 2558 02:03:35,400 --> 02:03:38,680 Speaker 6: you got Oregon Monday. Again, Oregon's not good. That will 2559 02:03:38,720 --> 02:03:41,200 Speaker 6: be the fiftieth anniversary honor into the seventy six team 2560 02:03:41,240 --> 02:03:43,800 Speaker 6: in the building on Monday. And then you get kind 2561 02:03:43,840 --> 02:03:48,400 Speaker 6: of back into your more of your gauntlet here in February, 2562 02:03:49,240 --> 02:03:51,840 Speaker 6: and Purdue is kind of approaching the same level again. 2563 02:03:51,880 --> 02:03:54,080 Speaker 6: Purdue's got a really bad Oregon team. If you look 2564 02:03:54,120 --> 02:03:56,440 Speaker 6: at the point totals some of these Oregon losses, it 2565 02:03:56,560 --> 02:04:01,760 Speaker 6: is absurd. And then after this starts quite the stretch. 2566 02:04:01,800 --> 02:04:03,480 Speaker 6: I think they're at Nebraska, I want to say, coming 2567 02:04:03,560 --> 02:04:07,680 Speaker 6: up on Tuesday there. I believe it's in Michigan pretty 2568 02:04:07,720 --> 02:04:11,600 Speaker 6: soon after that. So yeah, it gets very difficult here 2569 02:04:11,600 --> 02:04:13,360 Speaker 6: as we get into February for these teams. 2570 02:04:13,240 --> 02:04:15,960 Speaker 2: And chance for Purdue to start kind of getting back 2571 02:04:16,040 --> 02:04:18,920 Speaker 2: in their groove too. They should have. 2572 02:04:18,960 --> 02:04:21,560 Speaker 5: An easy time against Oregon. We'll see what happens over 2573 02:04:21,600 --> 02:04:24,520 Speaker 5: the weekend there anything else you in particular looking forward 2574 02:04:24,560 --> 02:04:27,160 Speaker 5: to this weekend in the Super Bowl and you're gonna 2575 02:04:27,160 --> 02:04:29,720 Speaker 5: be watching waste management open down in Phoenix. 2576 02:04:29,800 --> 02:04:32,080 Speaker 6: Yeah, I mean will be.
