They 45 00:02:01,400 --> 00:02:02,880 Speaker 2: tied it up with a minute and a half to 46 00:02:02,880 --> 00:02:05,120 Speaker 2: go and The one thing I did like, and I 47 00:02:05,160 --> 00:02:06,520 Speaker 2: don't know if you had a chance to watch any 48 00:02:06,520 --> 00:02:09,520 Speaker 2: of it yesterday, Mark, if you were watching the overtime 49 00:02:09,600 --> 00:02:10,120 Speaker 2: or anything like that. 50 00:02:10,160 --> 00:02:11,120 Speaker 4: I was laying on the couches. 51 00:02:11,400 --> 00:02:11,600 Speaker 1: Yeah. 52 00:02:11,800 --> 00:02:12,640 Speaker 3: Yeah. 53 00:02:12,680 --> 00:02:14,800 Speaker 2: What I did like about the overtime is man, that 54 00:02:14,840 --> 00:02:18,440 Speaker 2: ice was almost all in Sweden's end. The Americans really 55 00:02:18,480 --> 00:02:21,880 Speaker 2: tipped that. They were on the attack almost the entire overtime. 56 00:02:21,960 --> 00:02:24,240 Speaker 4: So it's a great day for hockey altogether because Canada 57 00:02:24,400 --> 00:02:26,000 Speaker 4: was really good. That game was insane. 58 00:02:26,360 --> 00:02:27,560 Speaker 1: Three overtime games. 59 00:02:27,880 --> 00:02:32,040 Speaker 6: The Quartersberg take that Sideen Brothers' know, it's about. 60 00:02:31,840 --> 00:02:35,359 Speaker 3: Peter Forsberg retired. This is a different for That's all I. 61 00:02:35,320 --> 00:02:37,359 Speaker 1: Know from Swedish NHL players here. 62 00:02:37,560 --> 00:02:40,000 Speaker 2: But now that they go onto the semi finals, now 63 00:02:40,040 --> 00:02:41,440 Speaker 2: we'll talk a little bit more about that as the 64 00:02:41,480 --> 00:02:45,359 Speaker 2: day goes along. Fad Mada James gets his five hundredth 65 00:02:45,400 --> 00:02:49,120 Speaker 2: career win as a head coach finally after seven tries. 66 00:02:49,280 --> 00:02:52,239 Speaker 2: Butler gets it done last night.

It 72 00:03:01,840 --> 00:03:04,040 Speaker 5: gives you a chance to look back at a career 73 00:03:04,200 --> 00:03:06,760 Speaker 5: like that model that obviously has taken a lot of 74 00:03:06,840 --> 00:03:09,639 Speaker 5: different shapes and forms just because of the changing landscape 75 00:03:09,919 --> 00:03:13,200 Speaker 5: of the business. But he is one of the more 76 00:03:13,320 --> 00:03:15,079 Speaker 5: esteemed coaches in college basketball. 77 00:03:15,360 --> 00:03:16,240 Speaker 3: It was a lot of fun.

Yeah, Like he's done this before. 131 00:05:25,640 --> 00:05:29,200 Speaker 6: Peterson that has exited early him self, has played the 132 00:05:29,360 --> 00:05:33,080 Speaker 6: very public good card, if you will, with Darren Peterson 133 00:05:33,120 --> 00:05:36,599 Speaker 6: and his team, and last night for the first time, 134 00:05:36,920 --> 00:05:39,880 Speaker 6: not in an egregious way, I thought, but he definitely 135 00:05:39,920 --> 00:05:43,400 Speaker 6: was like I didn't anticipate that at all. And when 136 00:05:43,400 --> 00:05:46,720 Speaker 6: the coach says that whatever two weeks four conference tournament time, 137 00:05:46,760 --> 00:05:49,240 Speaker 6: three weeks before the nca tournament, you can tell enough 138 00:05:49,320 --> 00:05:50,080 Speaker 6: is probably enough. 139 00:05:50,120 --> 00:05:54,280 Speaker 1: So, Man, the Darren Peterson draft. 140 00:05:53,960 --> 00:05:56,760 Speaker 6: Evaluation, good luck, because if you just look at the 141 00:05:56,800 --> 00:05:59,159 Speaker 6: box score last night, you see twenty three points at 142 00:05:59,240 --> 00:06:01,880 Speaker 6: nineteen minutes on six to ten from behind the arc 143 00:06:01,880 --> 00:06:04,080 Speaker 6: coman incredibly efficient like that. 144 00:06:04,200 --> 00:06:05,440 Speaker 1: There's a lot to like, but. 145 00:06:06,480 --> 00:06:09,360 Speaker 5: Gosh, man, is the evaluation all just medical records? Like 146 00:06:09,400 --> 00:06:11,400 Speaker 5: if you're if you're the Pacers, you get the number one. 147 00:06:11,800 --> 00:06:14,120 Speaker 1: I think it's more than medical. It's like, what I mean. 148 00:06:14,240 --> 00:06:16,080 Speaker 3: What do you how much do you want to play basketball? 149 00:06:16,080 --> 00:06:18,800 Speaker 1: Because where where is the competitive spirit? Where's the drive? 150 00:06:18,839 --> 00:06:21,359 Speaker 6: I mean, if you listen to John Calipari described Darius 151 00:06:21,360 --> 00:06:23,240 Speaker 6: a Cluff after his what. 152 00:06:23,200 --> 00:06:24,520 Speaker 1: Forty nine point game last night? 153 00:06:24,560 --> 00:06:26,640 Speaker 6: Yeah, I was incredible, saying he's in a walking boot 154 00:06:27,080 --> 00:06:28,920 Speaker 6: all week long and we didn't know if he'd be 155 00:06:28,920 --> 00:06:31,480 Speaker 6: able to go. And here's Arkansas Alabama and he literally 156 00:06:31,480 --> 00:06:33,080 Speaker 6: puts the team on his back trying to get them 157 00:06:33,400 --> 00:06:34,760 Speaker 6: a huge win and it's a what. 158 00:06:34,839 --> 00:06:35,880 Speaker 1: Double overtime game? 159 00:06:37,880 --> 00:06:40,440 Speaker 6: Very two very different responses from their head coaches about 160 00:06:40,480 --> 00:06:42,760 Speaker 6: their star freshmen and two guys expected to go in 161 00:06:42,800 --> 00:06:44,880 Speaker 6: the top ten. A Cuff probably more in that kind 162 00:06:44,920 --> 00:06:46,839 Speaker 6: of five to nine range where the Pacers you know 163 00:06:47,000 --> 00:06:50,520 Speaker 6: obviously won't be We know that. So yeah, just a 164 00:06:50,600 --> 00:06:52,400 Speaker 6: very interesting night in college basketball. 165 00:06:52,440 --> 00:06:54,480 Speaker 1: And reminder, we got AYU Purdue coming up tomorrow night. 166 00:06:54,520 --> 00:06:57,200 Speaker 6: Bruce Weber gonna join us here in about an hour 167 00:06:57,360 --> 00:06:58,640 Speaker 6: to talk about that. 168 00:06:58,760 --> 00:07:01,000 Speaker 1: Of course, he's got long history and that rivalry. 169 00:07:01,120 --> 00:07:02,080 Speaker 3: One of my favorite people. 170 00:07:02,120 --> 00:07:04,360 Speaker 2: And to get back though, to Peterson, it's starting to 171 00:07:04,400 --> 00:07:07,679 Speaker 2: feel like he's just kind of killing time in college 172 00:07:07,720 --> 00:07:10,200 Speaker 2: until he can get to the NBA and whatever happens happens. 173 00:07:10,240 --> 00:07:12,080 Speaker 2: I'll go in and put in my effort and then 174 00:07:12,080 --> 00:07:13,840 Speaker 2: I'm done. I don't want to get hurt. I don't 175 00:07:13,880 --> 00:07:15,480 Speaker 2: know how else to read it at this point in time, 176 00:07:15,520 --> 00:07:18,200 Speaker 2: because they're saying he's physically fine, what do you do? 177 00:07:19,040 --> 00:07:22,120 Speaker 1: Yeah, I trust me.

Getting getting fired up for that. 188 00:07:47,560 --> 00:07:48,080 Speaker 3: James Boyd. 189 00:07:48,080 --> 00:07:51,040 Speaker 2: Any big high school basketball games you're looking for coming up? 190 00:07:51,200 --> 00:07:52,640 Speaker 1: Is we head down the stretch there? 191 00:07:52,680 --> 00:07:55,360 Speaker 2: I know boys pairing is coming up this weekend, which 192 00:07:55,400 --> 00:07:56,640 Speaker 2: will be interesting to see. 193 00:07:56,960 --> 00:07:58,680 Speaker 1: Any thoughts on what we're going to see. 194 00:07:58,520 --> 00:08:01,560 Speaker 5: This weekend, Honcessary, I think my focus did more on 195 00:08:01,600 --> 00:08:05,120 Speaker 5: the girls tournament. I know the girls have semi state 196 00:08:05,160 --> 00:08:08,239 Speaker 5: this upcoming weekend, and I believe, if I'm not mistaken, 197 00:08:08,320 --> 00:08:11,320 Speaker 5: Center Grove is still undefeated. Lawrence North, I'm sorry, not 198 00:08:11,400 --> 00:08:13,800 Speaker 5: Lawrences with Lawrence Central, it's still in the tournament. They 199 00:08:13,800 --> 00:08:16,800 Speaker 5: have Lowell Lampley, who is the McDonald's All American going 200 00:08:16,840 --> 00:08:19,800 Speaker 5: to LSU. So a lot of talents still left on 201 00:08:19,840 --> 00:08:22,480 Speaker 5: the girl's side. And I'm debating. I have to go 202 00:08:22,600 --> 00:08:25,120 Speaker 5: home and see my family and do some things back 203 00:08:25,160 --> 00:08:27,400 Speaker 5: at the old high school albam Mater tomorrow, so I'm 204 00:08:27,440 --> 00:08:29,120 Speaker 5: debating whether I want to go to one of the 205 00:08:29,160 --> 00:08:31,920 Speaker 5: North semi state games, at least the morning session, to 206 00:08:31,960 --> 00:08:34,120 Speaker 5: see some of the old teams used to cover go 207 00:08:34,200 --> 00:08:34,520 Speaker 5: at it. 208 00:08:34,559 --> 00:08:36,400 Speaker 1: So we'll see what happens Jasper. 209 00:08:36,559 --> 00:08:38,839 Speaker 6: For Sena Grove and LC, they'll play in the morning 210 00:08:38,960 --> 00:08:41,000 Speaker 6: opposite in the morning games, than if they both win, 211 00:08:41,480 --> 00:08:44,080 Speaker 6: they'd play at night and wrestling state finals this weekend. 212 00:08:44,160 --> 00:08:45,920 Speaker 6: So it's always a busy weekend when you get to 213 00:08:45,960 --> 00:08:48,400 Speaker 6: kind of this mid late February here, and of course 214 00:08:48,440 --> 00:08:50,880 Speaker 6: the Pacers. Darren Peterson would fit in quite well on 215 00:08:50,880 --> 00:08:53,600 Speaker 6: the Pacers' injury report right now if you look at 216 00:08:53,600 --> 00:08:56,600 Speaker 6: it for tonight, we have a questionable status for Aaron E. Smith, 217 00:08:56,640 --> 00:08:59,880 Speaker 6: a questionable status for Tji McConnell, and Pascal Siakam out 218 00:09:00,280 --> 00:09:04,760 Speaker 6: due to personal reasons. It is typical James that when 219 00:09:04,800 --> 00:09:08,040 Speaker 6: guys return from actually playing in the All Star Game, 220 00:09:08,400 --> 00:09:11,439 Speaker 6: typically the Pacers have not had them practice, right, haven't 221 00:09:11,440 --> 00:09:14,280 Speaker 6: they sat them like, hey, you meet us maybe even 222 00:09:14,360 --> 00:09:17,400 Speaker 6: at the game, like you deserve an All Star break, 223 00:09:17,440 --> 00:09:19,440 Speaker 6: I guess is what I'm saying exactly.

One thing to note Vitza Zubots for 396 00:16:04,040 --> 00:16:07,040 Speaker 6: what it's worth, last week he was initially listed as questionable. 397 00:16:07,280 --> 00:16:09,600 Speaker 6: He's already out on the injury report, which again I 398 00:16:09,640 --> 00:16:12,560 Speaker 6: don't think it's the most shocking thing, but just officially 399 00:16:12,920 --> 00:16:17,520 Speaker 6: that language there. So do not expect zubots here anytime soon. 400 00:16:17,720 --> 00:16:20,640 Speaker 6: So yeah, the Pacers are a favorite. We could play 401 00:16:20,680 --> 00:16:22,720 Speaker 6: the game of name of Washington Wizard that will put 402 00:16:22,720 --> 00:16:24,560 Speaker 6: on a uniform tonight and I think we could be 403 00:16:24,600 --> 00:16:27,280 Speaker 6: doing that as long as Jeff was thinking about. 404 00:16:27,120 --> 00:16:29,680 Speaker 3: Tiger Wes trivia will be, I will be over, I 405 00:16:29,720 --> 00:16:30,600 Speaker 3: will be I would be. 406 00:16:30,600 --> 00:16:33,000 Speaker 1: Over as well.

A long time ago, when I was working 512 00:20:41,200 --> 00:20:44,399 Speaker 2: for the Utah Jazz, Karl Malone and John Stockton were playing. 513 00:20:44,560 --> 00:20:48,440 Speaker 2: And Carl Malone's a very famous hunter, and in his 514 00:20:48,600 --> 00:20:51,760 Speaker 2: house there are a lot of the heads of animals 515 00:20:51,840 --> 00:20:54,000 Speaker 2: that he had captured in hunts and things like that. 516 00:20:54,520 --> 00:20:56,800 Speaker 2: He had a five year old Carl Junior at the time. 517 00:20:57,320 --> 00:20:59,560 Speaker 2: And after a game, Carl Junior and the family are 518 00:20:59,640 --> 00:21:02,800 Speaker 2: going behind, you know, where the court is and back 519 00:21:02,840 --> 00:21:05,360 Speaker 2: into the battles of the arena or whatever, and Bear, 520 00:21:05,520 --> 00:21:09,320 Speaker 2: the mascot mark had taken his head off and putting it, 521 00:21:09,640 --> 00:21:11,720 Speaker 2: put it on a table kind of by where his 522 00:21:11,880 --> 00:21:15,120 Speaker 2: dressing area was. Little Carl Junior walks by five years old, 523 00:21:15,240 --> 00:21:18,440 Speaker 2: bursts into tears. His mom Cha asked him, what's what's 524 00:21:18,520 --> 00:21:21,080 Speaker 2: the problem? And he goes Daddy shot Bear. 525 00:21:22,320 --> 00:21:23,919 Speaker 1: One of my favorite mascot stories. 526 00:21:25,040 --> 00:21:27,520 Speaker 5: All I know is marketing about the Clifdad, and that'll 527 00:21:27,520 --> 00:21:29,200 Speaker 5: be used against you for the end of time. 528 00:21:29,480 --> 00:21:32,120 Speaker 3: See you're getting too cautious now about all the things 529 00:21:32,160 --> 00:21:33,040 Speaker 3: you say, James. 530 00:21:33,280 --> 00:21:34,960 Speaker 2: You're afraid that it's going to be used against you, 531 00:21:35,200 --> 00:21:37,359 Speaker 2: when you just got to roll with the fact that 532 00:21:37,480 --> 00:21:38,359 Speaker 2: everything is going to be. 533 00:21:38,440 --> 00:21:41,520 Speaker 1: Used against you. This is true, all right? Anything else 534 00:21:41,520 --> 00:21:43,679 Speaker 1: you guys want to throw him? Before we had to break, I. 535 00:21:43,720 --> 00:21:46,960 Speaker 6: Saw the Seattle Seahawks for sale. They announced that yesterday. 536 00:21:47,000 --> 00:21:48,720 Speaker 6: I think it was a part of the Paul Allen 537 00:21:49,720 --> 00:21:52,600 Speaker 6: will that you know, came out a couple of years ago. 538 00:21:52,720 --> 00:21:55,320 Speaker 6: So I believe the Trailblazers have either already sold or 539 00:21:55,520 --> 00:21:58,440 Speaker 6: are in the process of that. So not maybe the 540 00:21:58,480 --> 00:22:00,400 Speaker 6: most shocking news in the world, but still don't see 541 00:22:00,400 --> 00:22:02,200 Speaker 6: that every day NFL team for sale. And I assume 542 00:22:02,240 --> 00:22:05,040 Speaker 6: the valuation of the Seattle Seahawks is a pretty rich 543 00:22:05,119 --> 00:22:05,800 Speaker 6: number these days. 544 00:22:06,119 --> 00:22:10,240 Speaker 9: No daddy, No daddy, that's a different one, Mark, I 545 00:22:10,359 --> 00:22:11,440 Speaker 9: have lots to choose from. 546 00:22:11,520 --> 00:22:11,639 Speaker 1: Now. 547 00:22:12,840 --> 00:22:15,040 Speaker 3: We do what we can for you. We know you're 548 00:22:15,080 --> 00:22:16,280 Speaker 3: back at one hundred percent now. 549 00:22:16,200 --> 00:22:17,920 Speaker 1: That's the good thing. So we're looking forward to that 550 00:22:18,040 --> 00:22:18,840 Speaker 1: for the rest of the day. 551 00:22:19,040 --> 00:22:20,960 Speaker 2: All right, coming up in a moment, how do the 552 00:22:21,040 --> 00:22:24,320 Speaker 2: Pacers play it moving forward? Very cryptic answers earlier this 553 00:22:24,440 --> 00:22:28,080 Speaker 2: week from Rick Carlisle. We've already seen a lengthy injury report. 554 00:22:28,760 --> 00:22:30,600 Speaker 2: Coming up later on tonight as they take on the 555 00:22:30,720 --> 00:22:32,680 Speaker 2: Washington Wizards. We'll talk about it all and get to 556 00:22:32,760 --> 00:22:35,000 Speaker 2: some of your comments at two, three, nine seventy In 557 00:22:35,040 --> 00:22:36,800 Speaker 2: a moment ninety three to five and one. 558 00:22:36,720 --> 00:22:37,200 Speaker 9: Of the four. 559 00:22:44,600 --> 00:22:46,840 Speaker 12: If you were listening to about Fan morning show on 560 00:22:47,040 --> 00:22:49,520 Speaker 12: Sports Radio ninety three five and one oh. 561 00:22:49,520 --> 00:22:55,080 Speaker 2: Seven, up and Adam It's gonna be an interesting day today. 562 00:22:55,080 --> 00:22:56,600 Speaker 2: I don't know if you've heard about this, but there 563 00:22:56,640 --> 00:23:00,119 Speaker 2: could be some some pretty big storms rolling through the 564 00:23:00,200 --> 00:23:03,359 Speaker 2: area later on today, So check your local weather report 565 00:23:03,400 --> 00:23:05,440 Speaker 2: and see what's going on in your world. We started 566 00:23:05,440 --> 00:23:08,119 Speaker 2: off this morning with a lot of dense fog, so 567 00:23:08,560 --> 00:23:09,919 Speaker 2: keep an eye on that. You might want to take 568 00:23:09,920 --> 00:23:12,040 Speaker 2: an extra five or ten minutes. Some of that's starting 569 00:23:12,080 --> 00:23:13,720 Speaker 2: to burn off, I think as the sun comes up. 570 00:23:14,080 --> 00:23:16,080 Speaker 1: But that's all on the day. 571 00:23:16,200 --> 00:23:20,320 Speaker 2: Later on we will have Indiana Pacers basketball tonight six 572 00:23:20,480 --> 00:23:23,440 Speaker 2: thirty Airtimes seven o'clock tip as they take on the 573 00:23:23,720 --> 00:23:27,320 Speaker 2: Washington Wizards. A lot of people are wondering, do we 574 00:23:27,359 --> 00:23:29,720 Speaker 2: need a doctor's no now? How do we verify? Andy 575 00:23:29,800 --> 00:23:32,920 Speaker 2: wants to know on the text line, whoa WHOA whoa? 576 00:23:33,000 --> 00:23:35,760 Speaker 2: Who's the independent third party that determines the validity or 577 00:23:35,840 --> 00:23:38,280 Speaker 2: severity of Pascal's personal reasons? 578 00:23:38,359 --> 00:23:40,920 Speaker 1: Kevin, Yeah, I do hope. 579 00:23:40,760 --> 00:23:43,200 Speaker 6: Everything is okay with Pascal siakam my sat in all seriousness, 580 00:23:43,320 --> 00:23:45,320 Speaker 6: you know, too many times I think I've seen personal 581 00:23:45,400 --> 00:23:48,680 Speaker 6: on the injury board and it's not something good. 582 00:23:48,920 --> 00:23:51,560 Speaker 1: So I don't know. Every time I see personal. 583 00:23:51,320 --> 00:23:53,879 Speaker 6: I'm a little hesitant to even go anywhere with that. 584 00:23:54,080 --> 00:23:56,600 Speaker 6: So yeah, I hope everything's okay with him. Hopefully he 585 00:23:56,600 --> 00:23:59,040 Speaker 6: can rejoin the team soon and family wise is good. 586 00:23:59,200 --> 00:24:01,840 Speaker 6: You have seen the post All Star break that you know, 587 00:24:02,320 --> 00:24:05,520 Speaker 6: oftentimes the Pacers are like I would say many teams 588 00:24:05,600 --> 00:24:08,000 Speaker 6: let guys that play in the All Star Game themselves. 589 00:24:08,400 --> 00:24:09,439 Speaker 1: They set out those. 590 00:24:09,400 --> 00:24:11,639 Speaker 6: First couple of practices, so it was over there yesterday. 591 00:24:11,680 --> 00:24:14,919 Speaker 6: Didn't see Pascal Siakam, for what it's worth, in practice. 592 00:24:14,920 --> 00:24:16,639 Speaker 6: I don't even know if I saw aaron Ne Smith, 593 00:24:16,680 --> 00:24:19,960 Speaker 6: which I think he's questionable with an actual lower back injury. 594 00:24:20,520 --> 00:24:22,800 Speaker 2: All right, So we've got that coming up later on tonight, 595 00:24:22,840 --> 00:24:24,639 Speaker 2: and again it'll be interesting to see when the Washington 596 00:24:24,640 --> 00:24:27,760 Speaker 2: Wizards take the floor. How many legit NBA players you 597 00:24:27,880 --> 00:24:28,680 Speaker 2: see playing there? 598 00:24:29,000 --> 00:24:32,280 Speaker 5: James, Yeah, we've seen a number of players get shut 599 00:24:32,359 --> 00:24:36,000 Speaker 5: down this season. I know Anthony Davis got shut down 600 00:24:36,600 --> 00:24:39,320 Speaker 5: a while back. I want to say yesterday, the Dallas 601 00:24:39,440 --> 00:24:42,920 Speaker 5: Mavericks said that Kyrie Irving would not come back from 602 00:24:42,960 --> 00:24:45,880 Speaker 5: his ACL injury at the key injury last March. He's 603 00:24:45,920 --> 00:24:48,960 Speaker 5: gonna miss the full season. And I believe for the Kings, 604 00:24:49,080 --> 00:24:51,920 Speaker 5: both Zach Levine and De Monte Sabone has both got 605 00:24:52,359 --> 00:24:54,760 Speaker 5: season ending surgeries. I believe it was a hand for 606 00:24:54,960 --> 00:24:59,560 Speaker 5: Levine and a knee for Sabonas So basically, anybody get 607 00:24:59,600 --> 00:25:02,160 Speaker 5: anything cleaned up, they're not playing the rest of the way. 608 00:25:02,480 --> 00:25:05,480 Speaker 5: So we'll see how that impacts the rest of the 609 00:25:05,560 --> 00:25:07,959 Speaker 5: standings as we get down to the wire here. When 610 00:25:08,000 --> 00:25:10,920 Speaker 5: it comes to the chances of getting the number one pick, 611 00:25:10,960 --> 00:25:13,440 Speaker 5: and for the Pacers' purposes trying to get a top 612 00:25:13,520 --> 00:25:14,520 Speaker 5: four pick, you guess to. 613 00:25:14,520 --> 00:25:17,920 Speaker 6: Get you to be a priority to play Vita Zubots. 614 00:25:20,560 --> 00:25:23,800 Speaker 6: I think so Jeff's shaking his head and no, not immediately, 615 00:25:23,960 --> 00:25:27,040 Speaker 6: not right away, like, okay, twenty seven games ago. Yeah, 616 00:25:27,160 --> 00:25:28,480 Speaker 6: how many games you want to see him out there? 617 00:25:28,600 --> 00:25:30,000 Speaker 3: I think, what did you say last week? Ten and 618 00:25:30,040 --> 00:25:31,160 Speaker 3: a half was the over under? 619 00:25:32,359 --> 00:25:35,200 Speaker 1: Do you feel like that would be beneficial to either 620 00:25:35,320 --> 00:25:38,600 Speaker 1: Zubots or the team to have him play in any 621 00:25:38,680 --> 00:25:40,800 Speaker 1: capacity here over the final two months? 622 00:25:40,840 --> 00:25:42,800 Speaker 2: I think if he gets if he is fully healthy 623 00:25:42,800 --> 00:25:44,040 Speaker 2: and there's not a problem with an ankle. 624 00:25:44,160 --> 00:25:45,960 Speaker 3: First of all, players do want to play, It's what 625 00:25:46,000 --> 00:25:46,879 Speaker 3: they do for a living. 626 00:25:47,480 --> 00:25:50,160 Speaker 2: I don't know how much he plays, maybe you monitor 627 00:25:50,240 --> 00:25:52,800 Speaker 2: his minutes, but I think you want to keep him 628 00:25:52,800 --> 00:25:55,560 Speaker 2: in the rhythm of not missing a significant chunk of 629 00:25:55,600 --> 00:25:56,920 Speaker 2: an entire season, don't you. 630 00:25:57,840 --> 00:25:59,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, I think you play. 631 00:25:59,760 --> 00:26:03,560 Speaker 5: And I go back to when the Pacers traded for 632 00:26:04,080 --> 00:26:08,719 Speaker 5: Tyrese actually and they were tanking that season towards the end, 633 00:26:08,920 --> 00:26:11,200 Speaker 5: and he kept playing. And so I think that you 634 00:26:11,240 --> 00:26:13,760 Speaker 5: get out there, get in the uniform, and you try 635 00:26:13,800 --> 00:26:18,119 Speaker 5: to at least give I think some tangible proof to 636 00:26:18,200 --> 00:26:20,240 Speaker 5: what you can bring to the team. Not saying that 637 00:26:20,359 --> 00:26:22,480 Speaker 5: your resume isn't what it already is. We know what 638 00:26:22,640 --> 00:26:24,159 Speaker 5: he'll bring, but I think getting out there and at 639 00:26:24,240 --> 00:26:27,200 Speaker 5: least trying to show, Okay, here's a week in theorize, 640 00:26:27,280 --> 00:26:29,639 Speaker 5: here's what he's already doing, and things that we can 641 00:26:29,680 --> 00:26:32,960 Speaker 5: build around moving forward. Now it'll look different with Tyres Halliburton, 642 00:26:33,000 --> 00:26:35,399 Speaker 5: but I would play him. But to Jeff's point, a 643 00:26:35,480 --> 00:26:37,199 Speaker 5: lot of it are probably limited around like, Okay, how 644 00:26:37,240 --> 00:26:39,639 Speaker 5: many minutes are we playing you? And we're not going 645 00:26:39,680 --> 00:26:43,160 Speaker 5: to obviously play you too much to the point where 646 00:26:43,240 --> 00:26:46,680 Speaker 5: a you reinjured the ankle or reaggravate something and be 647 00:26:47,840 --> 00:26:49,600 Speaker 5: the elephant in the room is that we're trying to lose, 648 00:26:49,840 --> 00:26:52,040 Speaker 5: so you will not be playing, you know, forty minutes 649 00:26:52,080 --> 00:26:52,320 Speaker 5: to night. 650 00:26:52,640 --> 00:26:54,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, I found it interesting. 651 00:26:54,080 --> 00:26:58,359 Speaker 6: Yesterday Rick carlive practice was really descriptive and describing what 652 00:26:58,600 --> 00:27:01,200 Speaker 6: Zubots he feels like it's going to bring to the team. 653 00:27:01,359 --> 00:27:03,119 Speaker 6: And you know, kind of goes back to when Zubots 654 00:27:03,160 --> 00:27:05,080 Speaker 6: met the media last week he mentioned like, you know, 655 00:27:05,160 --> 00:27:08,560 Speaker 6: I need to punish the smalls. That was the phrase 656 00:27:08,600 --> 00:27:12,040 Speaker 6: that he used. Rick Carlisle echoed something very similar yesterday. 657 00:27:12,720 --> 00:27:15,320 Speaker 6: And it is a different type of center. That's probably 658 00:27:15,400 --> 00:27:18,800 Speaker 6: why I say it is because you know, when you're 659 00:27:18,800 --> 00:27:21,680 Speaker 6: playing with Miles Turner, his strengths offensively are very different 660 00:27:21,680 --> 00:27:25,440 Speaker 6: than Zubot's strengths, and it almost is a thing where 661 00:27:25,560 --> 00:27:28,640 Speaker 6: you look at it of like and to James's point, 662 00:27:28,680 --> 00:27:31,480 Speaker 6: he spot on life with Tyre's Halliburton operating offense is 663 00:27:31,600 --> 00:27:34,520 Speaker 6: very very different than whatever your current iteration is a 664 00:27:34,600 --> 00:27:37,000 Speaker 6: the Pacers, but for a guy like Andrew Nemhart, for 665 00:27:37,080 --> 00:27:39,840 Speaker 6: a guy like Aaron E. Smith, for even Siakam. For example, 666 00:27:40,760 --> 00:27:44,239 Speaker 6: with Turner, you got used to, oh my gosh, they 667 00:27:44,280 --> 00:27:48,159 Speaker 6: have switched a small guy on Miles Turner. Wow, that 668 00:27:48,320 --> 00:27:51,440 Speaker 6: looks like a mismatch. Oh wait, it's Miles Turner. He 669 00:27:51,560 --> 00:27:54,080 Speaker 6: doesn't really take advantage of that stuff. I'm probably not 670 00:27:54,160 --> 00:27:56,200 Speaker 6: going to throw the ball into the post. That was 671 00:27:56,280 --> 00:27:58,600 Speaker 6: kind of the thinking with Turner when he got those 672 00:27:58,640 --> 00:28:02,080 Speaker 6: matchups with zubots. That's a green light when if a 673 00:28:02,200 --> 00:28:04,800 Speaker 6: small switched on to him, you chuck that ball in 674 00:28:04,880 --> 00:28:07,159 Speaker 6: there and you let him go to work. So is 675 00:28:07,200 --> 00:28:09,320 Speaker 6: there any sort of again, just kind of training of 676 00:28:09,440 --> 00:28:12,240 Speaker 6: like no, no, no, a we know that haliburtons still 677 00:28:12,240 --> 00:28:14,240 Speaker 6: in the street close, but we need our other guys 678 00:28:14,560 --> 00:28:16,600 Speaker 6: to get used to that of like no, no, no, 679 00:28:16,800 --> 00:28:21,080 Speaker 6: this needs to be part of our whatever offensive repertoire, 680 00:28:21,560 --> 00:28:23,600 Speaker 6: if you will. He might not stretch the floor out 681 00:28:23,680 --> 00:28:26,639 Speaker 6: to the corner like Turner is going to do, but 682 00:28:27,359 --> 00:28:30,280 Speaker 6: you know that aspect to it. I am curious how 683 00:28:30,359 --> 00:28:32,800 Speaker 6: much the Pacers look at the final twenty seven games. Yes, 684 00:28:32,880 --> 00:28:35,680 Speaker 6: they want to lose, that is very clear, But still 685 00:28:36,320 --> 00:28:37,960 Speaker 6: do they try to sprinkle in a little bit of 686 00:28:38,040 --> 00:28:39,560 Speaker 6: zoobots for that aspect of it? 687 00:28:39,920 --> 00:28:41,959 Speaker 2: Yeah, it'll it'll be fascinating to watch and see how 688 00:28:42,000 --> 00:28:43,520 Speaker 2: they play it to just a little bit of a 689 00:28:43,600 --> 00:28:45,880 Speaker 2: refresher coming out of the All Star break. In the 690 00:28:46,000 --> 00:28:49,520 Speaker 2: Eastern Conference alone, there are three teams vying for the 691 00:28:49,640 --> 00:28:52,400 Speaker 2: bottom as you might want to say, James, h you 692 00:28:52,480 --> 00:28:55,320 Speaker 2: got Brooklyn at fifteen and thirty eight, who the Pacers 693 00:28:55,440 --> 00:28:57,959 Speaker 2: just beat. You've got to Indy out of then at 694 00:28:58,000 --> 00:29:00,880 Speaker 2: fifteen and forty and then Washington is at fourteen and 695 00:29:01,040 --> 00:29:03,600 Speaker 2: thirty nine. And you look at the poor teams in 696 00:29:03,680 --> 00:29:06,800 Speaker 2: the West right now. Utah's eighteen and thirty eight. 697 00:29:06,840 --> 00:29:07,240 Speaker 3: They've got a. 698 00:29:07,240 --> 00:29:09,640 Speaker 2: Little bit of a cushion there, James, outside of the 699 00:29:09,720 --> 00:29:12,719 Speaker 2: top or the bottom five. Then New Orleans is fifteen 700 00:29:12,720 --> 00:29:15,400 Speaker 2: and forty one. Sacramento seems to be on a collision 701 00:29:15,480 --> 00:29:16,960 Speaker 2: course with the worst record in the league. 702 00:29:16,960 --> 00:29:19,360 Speaker 3: They are just twelve and forty four. They have lost 703 00:29:19,800 --> 00:29:23,160 Speaker 3: ten in a row. So that sets the scene for you. Kevin. 704 00:29:23,200 --> 00:29:26,520 Speaker 2: You were asking about Washington Wizards just a moment ago, 705 00:29:27,320 --> 00:29:29,680 Speaker 2: and who's playing and who's doing what. I look at 706 00:29:29,920 --> 00:29:31,960 Speaker 2: their depth chart right now and there's not much going 707 00:29:32,040 --> 00:29:32,360 Speaker 2: on there. 708 00:29:32,400 --> 00:29:32,560 Speaker 9: Man. 709 00:29:33,360 --> 00:29:35,560 Speaker 1: These are the names of the Wizards players that played 710 00:29:35,600 --> 00:29:37,480 Speaker 1: the most minutes in their last game. 711 00:29:38,480 --> 00:29:47,560 Speaker 6: Will Riley, Jamoi, Jamir Watkins, Sharif Cooper, Kaishawn George, and 712 00:29:47,920 --> 00:29:48,880 Speaker 6: Justin Champagne. 713 00:29:51,920 --> 00:29:53,400 Speaker 5: Doesn't ring a bell for most of them. Only no 714 00:29:53,440 --> 00:29:55,920 Speaker 5: Will Riley, because he went to Illinois and. 715 00:29:55,920 --> 00:29:58,000 Speaker 6: If Will Riley went to Iowa State, you probably wouldn't 716 00:29:58,000 --> 00:30:01,960 Speaker 6: know him, no chance. I think it's the group that 717 00:30:02,040 --> 00:30:04,680 Speaker 6: we're looking at tonight. Mark, do you have as audio James, 718 00:30:04,680 --> 00:30:08,240 Speaker 6: I think you maybe discovered this Lebron and Steve Nash right. 719 00:30:08,480 --> 00:30:11,520 Speaker 5: Yes, talking about and Steve Nash talked about the addition 720 00:30:12,000 --> 00:30:14,720 Speaker 5: of zoo Bots on their Mind the Game podcast and 721 00:30:14,800 --> 00:30:17,120 Speaker 5: what it could mean for the Pacers and Tyres Halliburton. 722 00:30:18,320 --> 00:30:20,440 Speaker 13: I don't know if it's like Zubag like still hates 723 00:30:20,480 --> 00:30:22,360 Speaker 13: the Lakers because of the trade or whatever, but when 724 00:30:22,360 --> 00:30:24,000 Speaker 13: he plays against us man, he's. 725 00:30:24,040 --> 00:30:26,080 Speaker 1: Really I mean, I mean he kicks our ass man. 726 00:30:26,320 --> 00:30:28,600 Speaker 13: He's gigantic, and I don't think people a lot of 727 00:30:28,600 --> 00:30:30,240 Speaker 13: people understand how big he is. 728 00:30:30,360 --> 00:30:32,760 Speaker 1: Great hands around the rim, great touch. 729 00:30:34,080 --> 00:30:35,600 Speaker 3: You know, obviously he worked well with James. 730 00:30:35,640 --> 00:30:38,600 Speaker 13: That could have been something too, because James play making ability. 731 00:30:38,960 --> 00:30:40,760 Speaker 13: You know, they felt like once they got off James, 732 00:30:40,800 --> 00:30:42,360 Speaker 13: they felt like, you know, maybe they could go get 733 00:30:42,440 --> 00:30:44,480 Speaker 13: something for zoo Bag because they losing the play making 734 00:30:44,520 --> 00:30:47,000 Speaker 13: them James. I think it's a great pickup for for 735 00:30:47,240 --> 00:30:51,080 Speaker 13: for Indy, especially going into the future. Obviously after losing 736 00:30:51,120 --> 00:30:54,640 Speaker 13: Miles Turner obviously Tim Milwaukee, two different players. But I 737 00:30:54,720 --> 00:30:57,800 Speaker 13: think with Tyree's coming back at some point with Zoo, 738 00:30:57,840 --> 00:30:59,320 Speaker 13: I think it's gonna work well me and you. 739 00:31:00,160 --> 00:31:00,960 Speaker 3: Zoo works well with. 740 00:31:01,040 --> 00:31:04,080 Speaker 13: Play making point goals or play making players, and ty 741 00:31:04,160 --> 00:31:06,920 Speaker 13: Reese is one of our best playmakers in our game. Obviously, 742 00:31:06,960 --> 00:31:08,280 Speaker 13: you've seen what Zoo was able to do the last 743 00:31:08,320 --> 00:31:10,960 Speaker 13: couple of years with James, So kudos to to Indiana 744 00:31:11,080 --> 00:31:13,160 Speaker 13: bring him in there. They saw his talent. He's still young, 745 00:31:13,600 --> 00:31:16,160 Speaker 13: you know, relatively, and things will be good, I think. 746 00:31:16,400 --> 00:31:17,760 Speaker 13: I mean, I think Tyree's going to love him. 747 00:31:17,960 --> 00:31:21,480 Speaker 5: Not the facer the Miles Turner was, but like he's 748 00:31:21,520 --> 00:31:23,200 Speaker 5: so good around the room, right, so good. He can 749 00:31:23,280 --> 00:31:25,160 Speaker 5: play in the role I'm just playing in the short pocket, 750 00:31:26,160 --> 00:31:28,680 Speaker 5: great hands around the rim, but also rebound. 751 00:31:28,600 --> 00:31:30,800 Speaker 13: Can rebound extra possessions. 752 00:31:30,640 --> 00:31:34,680 Speaker 1: Fends, defends in the rim. So yeah, I'm excited for Indy. 753 00:31:35,520 --> 00:31:37,040 Speaker 6: You know, it's kind of funny when you hear them 754 00:31:37,120 --> 00:31:41,080 Speaker 6: describe Zubots and Turner, you know from a sheer like 755 00:31:41,280 --> 00:31:44,880 Speaker 6: back of the basketball card. Turner six eleven two fifty 756 00:31:44,960 --> 00:31:47,320 Speaker 6: that's what he's listed at and Zubots is seven foot 757 00:31:47,360 --> 00:31:47,840 Speaker 6: two forty. 758 00:31:48,600 --> 00:31:49,840 Speaker 1: That's not that different. 759 00:31:50,120 --> 00:31:53,440 Speaker 6: But as we know, Miles Turner really never played to 760 00:31:53,560 --> 00:31:57,200 Speaker 6: that size and Zubots fully placed that size. So that 761 00:31:57,400 --> 00:31:58,920 Speaker 6: that is a question I have for the final twenty 762 00:31:58,960 --> 00:31:59,440 Speaker 6: seven games. 763 00:32:00,000 --> 00:32:00,680 Speaker 3: Do you feel it? 764 00:32:00,680 --> 00:32:02,080 Speaker 1: Because I hear it both ways. 765 00:32:02,120 --> 00:32:03,640 Speaker 6: You've got people on the text line saying you don't 766 00:32:03,640 --> 00:32:05,960 Speaker 6: play zubots and you got people saying you playing fifteen 767 00:32:06,000 --> 00:32:06,800 Speaker 6: to twenty minutes a game. 768 00:32:07,320 --> 00:32:08,600 Speaker 1: Is there any thought here? 769 00:32:08,800 --> 00:32:11,560 Speaker 6: And Chad Buchanan did say to Tony East that he 770 00:32:11,640 --> 00:32:14,640 Speaker 6: feels like Zubots will play here at some point. 771 00:32:15,440 --> 00:32:19,440 Speaker 1: How much do you view that being a necessary part. 772 00:32:19,560 --> 00:32:22,760 Speaker 6: Is there any sort of a hey, can you knock 773 00:32:22,800 --> 00:32:26,120 Speaker 6: off any October November RUSS next season? If you play 774 00:32:26,200 --> 00:32:29,360 Speaker 6: Zubots a little bit here this season? That might be 775 00:32:29,440 --> 00:32:32,320 Speaker 6: overthinking it, but that's I think a discussion point they 776 00:32:32,400 --> 00:32:32,640 Speaker 6: have to have. 777 00:32:33,600 --> 00:32:36,160 Speaker 2: Well, I just can't wait at some point, and I 778 00:32:36,360 --> 00:32:38,280 Speaker 2: know we won't have it till next year.

Like 899 00:36:57,280 --> 00:36:58,919 Speaker 4: I said, once I see a shovel in the ground, 900 00:36:58,960 --> 00:37:01,400 Speaker 4: I'll start to believe it. But yeah, this is supposed 901 00:37:01,400 --> 00:37:04,440 Speaker 4: to be the big week for the Illinois legislature to 902 00:37:04,560 --> 00:37:06,440 Speaker 4: get some stuff done, so we'll see what happens. 903 00:37:06,800 --> 00:37:09,439 Speaker 1: I think he was speaking more towards the Indiana Yeah, 904 00:37:09,440 --> 00:37:10,160 Speaker 1: that legislature. 905 00:37:10,160 --> 00:37:11,920 Speaker 3: Have we heard any more about Iowa wanting to come 906 00:37:11,960 --> 00:37:12,520 Speaker 3: after the Bears? 907 00:37:12,719 --> 00:37:16,839 Speaker 4: No, I think that was a BS But the Hammond situation, yeah, 908 00:37:16,840 --> 00:37:19,600 Speaker 4: it seems like maybe the Bears are trying to really 909 00:37:19,760 --> 00:37:22,360 Speaker 4: like stick it toll Andoire like, hey, we're not kidding, like, 910 00:37:22,440 --> 00:37:24,160 Speaker 4: we will make a decision go to Hammond. 911 00:37:23,920 --> 00:37:25,640 Speaker 1: If we need to. So we'll see. 912 00:37:27,360 --> 00:37:29,200 Speaker 3: Hammond is just a place you drive through though for 913 00:37:29,239 --> 00:37:31,200 Speaker 3: the most part, isn't it. No, not if you're going 914 00:37:31,239 --> 00:37:36,040 Speaker 3: to bear a dog. I say, James, Oh yeah, Hamon 915 00:37:36,120 --> 00:37:39,560 Speaker 3: Casino the Horseshoe.

I just hear 929 00:38:04,120 --> 00:38:05,720 Speaker 1: a lot seven five found. 930 00:38:06,280 --> 00:38:08,160 Speaker 2: I found that to be a little bit run down 931 00:38:08,239 --> 00:38:10,520 Speaker 2: when we went there, and maybe they refurbished it. 932 00:38:10,600 --> 00:38:11,239 Speaker 3: Lately, I don't know. 933 00:38:11,640 --> 00:38:13,919 Speaker 2: We were talking about the Tiger Woods thing yesterday though, Kevin, 934 00:38:13,960 --> 00:38:15,880 Speaker 2: because he had given all of us hope that he 935 00:38:16,160 --> 00:38:17,840 Speaker 2: might make an appearance at the Masters. 936 00:38:18,320 --> 00:38:21,759 Speaker 6: Indeed he said that it is not a no yet 937 00:38:21,880 --> 00:38:24,120 Speaker 6: on the schedule here. So we're less than two months 938 00:38:24,160 --> 00:38:25,520 Speaker 6: away from the Masters. 939 00:38:25,600 --> 00:38:28,160 Speaker 1: I can't wait, and that got me tingly inside. 940 00:38:28,440 --> 00:38:30,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, Hey, we're going to talk about the cult a 941 00:38:30,080 --> 00:38:32,520 Speaker 2: little bit later on today. Joe Wright's going to stop by, right. 942 00:38:32,640 --> 00:38:35,200 Speaker 1: Yeah, Joe Wright's coming up at eight thirty. 943 00:38:35,360 --> 00:38:38,320 Speaker 6: Bruce Weber, you said eight fifteen mark for that, so 944 00:38:38,400 --> 00:38:41,000 Speaker 6: we'll probably we'll probably bump the old check down up 945 00:38:41,000 --> 00:38:43,000 Speaker 6: a little bit earlier in the eight o'clock hour. Get 946 00:38:43,040 --> 00:38:45,080 Speaker 6: to Bruce Webber. You know, weird thinking about tomorrow night 947 00:38:45,120 --> 00:38:48,440 Speaker 6: with Indiana perdue, like in a vacuum. Indiana needs the 948 00:38:48,480 --> 00:38:50,880 Speaker 6: game more like Indiana I think needs one more to 949 00:38:51,000 --> 00:38:55,320 Speaker 6: just kind of really cement themselves in the field. But weirdly, 950 00:38:56,520 --> 00:39:00,760 Speaker 6: if you look at it, you would call the Purdue 951 00:39:00,960 --> 00:39:04,920 Speaker 6: era in the Braden Smith Fletcher Lawyer realm. They've been 952 00:39:04,920 --> 00:39:08,120 Speaker 6: one of the best teams in college basketball, right, yes, 953 00:39:08,200 --> 00:39:09,640 Speaker 6: over the last three years. I mean, you make a 954 00:39:09,800 --> 00:39:12,160 Speaker 6: national championship game, You've won multiple Big Tens. I think 955 00:39:12,160 --> 00:39:14,120 Speaker 6: they won a Big Ten Tournament title, probably will be. 956 00:39:14,120 --> 00:39:14,920 Speaker 1: A preset this year. 957 00:39:15,000 --> 00:39:16,640 Speaker 5: And exactly their sea is over. 958 00:39:16,760 --> 00:39:18,640 Speaker 6: They went to Sweet sixteen last year. Like I mean, 959 00:39:18,680 --> 00:39:20,759 Speaker 6: they have been one of the better whatever top five, 960 00:39:20,840 --> 00:39:23,400 Speaker 6: top ten college basketball teams over the last three years. 961 00:39:23,480 --> 00:39:26,279 Speaker 6: You wouldn't say that about Indiana at all over the 962 00:39:26,360 --> 00:39:30,759 Speaker 6: last three years. But yet, if Indiana somehow pulls this 963 00:39:30,920 --> 00:39:34,280 Speaker 6: off tomorrow night, they will have had the better record 964 00:39:34,440 --> 00:39:37,320 Speaker 6: than Purdue in that stretch, which is just kind of 965 00:39:37,520 --> 00:39:39,560 Speaker 6: odd when you think about it. 966 00:39:39,680 --> 00:39:41,799 Speaker 1: Obviously, the win up in Mackie was the. 967 00:39:41,840 --> 00:39:45,000 Speaker 6: Jalen Hood Schafino game, where he went absolutely off, really 968 00:39:45,040 --> 00:39:47,840 Speaker 6: one of the finer individual performances we've seen in this rivalry, 969 00:39:47,880 --> 00:39:52,000 Speaker 6: particularly from a road player in this rivalry. So I'm 970 00:39:52,040 --> 00:39:54,319 Speaker 6: just curious maybe more for Braiden Smith and Fletcher Lawyer, 971 00:39:54,360 --> 00:39:57,400 Speaker 6: if any of that. I mean again, it's it's arguably 972 00:39:57,480 --> 00:40:01,359 Speaker 6: the most accomplished class in Purdue history. Uh and yet 973 00:40:01,719 --> 00:40:05,839 Speaker 6: the Indiana is maybe just a little stain on the resume. Sure, 974 00:40:06,160 --> 00:40:09,400 Speaker 6: and you know, how do they respond tomorrow night in 975 00:40:09,440 --> 00:40:12,080 Speaker 6: their final game at least without a big ten tournament 976 00:40:12,360 --> 00:40:14,560 Speaker 6: meeting possible between these two teams. 977 00:40:14,680 --> 00:40:15,680 Speaker 1: Yeah, and very quickly. 978 00:40:16,000 --> 00:40:18,719 Speaker 3: It seems to me with Purdue lately too, like they're 979 00:40:18,840 --> 00:40:22,040 Speaker 3: really struggling to defend the three and sometimes teams get hot. 980 00:40:22,160 --> 00:40:24,200 Speaker 3: I get that, but I don't know how great they've 981 00:40:24,200 --> 00:40:25,440 Speaker 3: been at defending the three. 982 00:40:25,320 --> 00:40:26,440 Speaker 1: And the losses that they've had. 983 00:40:26,719 --> 00:40:29,440 Speaker 5: No, they haven't defended the three great all year and 984 00:40:29,520 --> 00:40:31,000 Speaker 5: in my opinion, so I know we. 985 00:40:31,040 --> 00:40:31,680 Speaker 4: Got to get to break. 986 00:40:31,800 --> 00:40:33,439 Speaker 5: So one more Tiger Woods question. 987 00:40:33,520 --> 00:40:34,960 Speaker 3: I think this is a good Oh, here we go. 988 00:40:35,400 --> 00:40:37,360 Speaker 5: You know whoever it gets the right answer here is 989 00:40:37,480 --> 00:40:39,200 Speaker 5: here's the winner. I feel like that's fair enough. Here's 990 00:40:39,200 --> 00:40:42,839 Speaker 5: a little of pressure for you. So Tiger has won 991 00:40:43,040 --> 00:40:46,759 Speaker 5: five Masters. I want to know what's the biggest time 992 00:40:46,880 --> 00:40:48,279 Speaker 5: gap between Masters. 993 00:40:48,040 --> 00:40:51,440 Speaker 2: Victories two thousand and six, two thousand and six or 994 00:40:51,520 --> 00:40:52,640 Speaker 2: seven to twenty nineteen. 995 00:40:52,640 --> 00:40:54,040 Speaker 3: I'm going to say twelve year. 996 00:40:53,960 --> 00:40:56,880 Speaker 6: Or six two seven? Was Zach Johnson year six to 997 00:40:57,000 --> 00:40:59,359 Speaker 6: twenty nineteen?

They're actually pretty good. 1113 00:45:43,840 --> 00:45:47,359 Speaker 5: I just always realized the amount of skill and takes, 1114 00:45:47,360 --> 00:45:49,480 Speaker 5: whether there's men's or women's to just skate in general, 1115 00:45:50,000 --> 00:45:51,520 Speaker 5: And then I think about you throwing on all the 1116 00:45:51,560 --> 00:45:54,640 Speaker 5: extra pounds with the pads and the mask and you know, 1117 00:45:55,280 --> 00:45:57,759 Speaker 5: carrying a stick like you have to be elite as 1118 00:45:57,800 --> 00:46:01,400 Speaker 5: a skater. First before you and elite as a player 1119 00:46:01,760 --> 00:46:03,959 Speaker 5: for hockey. So yeah, I'm always impressed by that because 1120 00:46:03,960 --> 00:46:06,440 Speaker 5: I think that it's so many different skills you have 1121 00:46:06,560 --> 00:46:08,960 Speaker 5: to have together. Like, for example, no one has to 1122 00:46:09,000 --> 00:46:11,520 Speaker 5: teach you how to run when you play football, running 1123 00:46:11,560 --> 00:46:13,880 Speaker 5: your whole life. But like with skating, you mean, you 1124 00:46:13,920 --> 00:46:15,440 Speaker 5: got to be very good at all those things. So 1125 00:46:15,480 --> 00:46:16,200 Speaker 5: I'm excited about it. 1126 00:46:16,360 --> 00:46:18,560 Speaker 1: What what's always been? Can you walk me through this? 1127 00:46:18,680 --> 00:46:22,120 Speaker 1: Quinn Hughes telling the bench no, Like, is that something 1128 00:46:22,200 --> 00:46:24,879 Speaker 1: you see in hockey? Again? I guess let's set the scene. 1129 00:46:25,239 --> 00:46:27,319 Speaker 6: So in overtime you go three on three, right, which 1130 00:46:27,400 --> 00:46:30,480 Speaker 6: involves more open ice theoretically. 1131 00:46:30,040 --> 00:46:31,960 Speaker 1: More skating, endurance and stuff. 1132 00:46:32,080 --> 00:46:34,680 Speaker 6: Yeah, and so he told we were trying to make 1133 00:46:34,719 --> 00:46:37,360 Speaker 6: a sub for him, right, and he tells the bench no. 1134 00:46:37,640 --> 00:46:39,279 Speaker 3: And I'm gonna put this in context for you. 1135 00:46:40,160 --> 00:46:45,200 Speaker 2: It is an intensely anaerobic effort to play hockey. When 1136 00:46:45,239 --> 00:46:48,399 Speaker 2: you talk about shift changes, those shift changes generally come 1137 00:46:48,760 --> 00:46:52,400 Speaker 2: different for different teams and guys, but thirty seconds, forty 1138 00:46:52,480 --> 00:46:57,040 Speaker 2: seconds max. Sometimes because you're going all out for that time, right, 1139 00:46:57,920 --> 00:47:01,520 Speaker 2: Quinn Hughes played three and a half minute in overtime yesterday, 1140 00:47:01,960 --> 00:47:04,160 Speaker 2: So to your point, that was amazing, but there's not 1141 00:47:04,280 --> 00:47:07,480 Speaker 2: everybody can wave wave the bench off. Quinn Hughes might 1142 00:47:07,520 --> 00:47:09,160 Speaker 2: be one of two guys on that team that can 1143 00:47:09,200 --> 00:47:12,000 Speaker 2: say you ain't taking me out right now, kind of 1144 00:47:12,040 --> 00:47:12,640 Speaker 2: like a think. 1145 00:47:12,600 --> 00:47:13,520 Speaker 3: Of a starting pitcher. 1146 00:47:14,160 --> 00:47:16,480 Speaker 2: How many starting pitchers in Major League Baseball can play 1147 00:47:16,560 --> 00:47:18,760 Speaker 2: at the manager and say, yeah, that's not happening. 1148 00:47:19,360 --> 00:47:21,200 Speaker 5: Yeah, And I didn't get that privilege in high school. 1149 00:47:21,200 --> 00:47:22,919 Speaker 5: It was like, boy, you better hitch about on this bench. 1150 00:47:23,480 --> 00:47:25,080 Speaker 5: So that's why that's why I ended up. 1151 00:47:25,360 --> 00:47:26,760 Speaker 1: I think I've told the story before. 1152 00:47:26,880 --> 00:47:29,640 Speaker 6: Ryan Klin's dad might Cline coach to some basketball growing up, 1153 00:47:29,680 --> 00:47:31,279 Speaker 6: and Ryan Klin is our ball boy.

So I think 1219 00:50:09,640 --> 00:50:11,640 Speaker 6: that'll be a big, big storyline. Bruce Weber going to 1220 00:50:11,719 --> 00:50:14,480 Speaker 6: join us here in about five ish minutes to talk 1221 00:50:14,560 --> 00:50:16,080 Speaker 6: more about Purdue Indiana tomorrow night. 1222 00:50:16,160 --> 00:50:18,440 Speaker 1: That's eight o'clock up there in MACKI. 1223 00:50:18,400 --> 00:50:21,960 Speaker 2: All right, And last night college basketball terrific double overtime 1224 00:50:22,040 --> 00:50:23,840 Speaker 2: game between Alabama and Arkansas. 1225 00:50:24,239 --> 00:50:27,120 Speaker 3: Creighton upset yukon ninety one eighty four.

Darren Peterson, Electric, 1228 00:50:33,400 --> 00:50:35,359 Speaker 2: the man who could be the number one overall picking 1229 00:50:35,400 --> 00:50:37,880 Speaker 2: this coming NBA draft, scored twenty three points in just 1230 00:50:37,960 --> 00:50:40,439 Speaker 2: eighteen minutes, but twenty of them were in the first half, 1231 00:50:40,480 --> 00:50:42,880 Speaker 2: and once again he gave the bench that signal that 1232 00:50:42,960 --> 00:50:44,880 Speaker 2: he gives him like Okay, yeah, I'm done, take me 1233 00:50:44,960 --> 00:50:47,759 Speaker 2: out and for the first time we saw the coach 1234 00:50:48,480 --> 00:50:51,040 Speaker 2: getting a little upset. Bill self after the game, not 1235 00:50:51,320 --> 00:50:53,120 Speaker 2: quite sure what's going on at this point. 1236 00:50:53,239 --> 00:50:53,759 Speaker 1: Yeah, he was. 1237 00:50:54,320 --> 00:50:55,920 Speaker 5: The question that he was asked was, hey, this has 1238 00:50:55,960 --> 00:50:58,160 Speaker 5: happened a couple of times, and he kind of answered 1239 00:50:58,200 --> 00:50:59,719 Speaker 5: and said, well, he's been more than a couple times, 1240 00:50:59,760 --> 00:51:02,600 Speaker 5: and more or less, yeah, he had a great first 1241 00:51:02,680 --> 00:51:04,560 Speaker 5: hab but we know how to win. These guys want 1242 00:51:04,600 --> 00:51:06,040 Speaker 5: to play without him, And I was like, oh wow, 1243 00:51:06,160 --> 00:51:08,160 Speaker 5: that's quite the statement for a guy who could be 1244 00:51:08,160 --> 00:51:09,800 Speaker 5: the number one pick. Your coach is saying, well, we 1245 00:51:09,880 --> 00:51:12,640 Speaker 5: can figure out a way to survive without. 1246 00:51:12,480 --> 00:51:14,160 Speaker 1: The best player in college basketball. 1247 00:51:14,320 --> 00:51:17,680 Speaker 6: And he has not gone that way in private post games. 1248 00:51:17,840 --> 00:51:21,480 Speaker 6: This is a different tone from Bill's self. So boy, 1249 00:51:21,560 --> 00:51:23,799 Speaker 6: good luck to NBA team's vetting that prospect, because if 1250 00:51:23,800 --> 00:51:28,040 Speaker 6: you watched Daron Peterson play basketball last night, he looked unbelievable. 1251 00:51:28,120 --> 00:51:28,359 Speaker 1: Again. 1252 00:51:28,520 --> 00:51:30,520 Speaker 2: Well, and I think if you're Bill soph your frustration 1253 00:51:30,760 --> 00:51:33,640 Speaker 2: is with Darren Peterson playing. I don't know if he 1254 00:51:33,640 --> 00:51:35,719 Speaker 2: could play thirty minutes a night, even twenty eight minutes 1255 00:51:35,719 --> 00:51:35,960 Speaker 2: a night. 1256 00:51:36,280 --> 00:51:40,160 Speaker 1: They got a chance to run this thing right without 1257 00:51:40,239 --> 00:51:42,960 Speaker 1: him in April. Without him is gonna be really tough. 1258 00:51:43,200 --> 00:51:47,120 Speaker 1: I imagine picking Kansas in your bracket. Boy, Yeah, you're 1259 00:51:47,120 --> 00:51:47,879 Speaker 1: all in or all out. 1260 00:51:48,080 --> 00:51:50,680 Speaker 5: I think though, whoever bets on that team and maybe 1261 00:51:50,719 --> 00:51:52,520 Speaker 5: his overrun or whatever the case may be, if you 1262 00:51:52,560 --> 00:51:55,440 Speaker 5: can bet on that in college basketball, they'll be on 1263 00:51:55,560 --> 00:51:57,160 Speaker 5: pins and needles coming tournament time. 1264 00:51:57,200 --> 00:51:57,480 Speaker 1: All right. 1265 00:51:57,640 --> 00:51:59,960 Speaker 2: NBA Pacers back at it tonight as we finish up 1266 00:52:00,040 --> 00:52:01,800 Speaker 2: the All Star break. They'll be in Washington for the 1267 00:52:01,840 --> 00:52:05,200 Speaker 2: first of two games tonight and tomorrow night, seven pm, Tips, 1268 00:52:05,200 --> 00:52:07,440 Speaker 2: six thirty airtime right here in ninety three five and 1269 00:52:07,480 --> 00:52:09,239 Speaker 2: one oh seven to five The Fame with Pat Boyl 1270 00:52:09,320 --> 00:52:11,080 Speaker 2: and then of course Mark we'll have the play by 1271 00:52:11,160 --> 00:52:12,200 Speaker 2: play at the top of the hour. 1272 00:52:12,560 --> 00:52:15,400 Speaker 3: Question, is Kevin who will play for the Pacers. 1273 00:52:15,040 --> 00:52:17,360 Speaker 1: In this game? Yeah? So, Pascal Siakam out due to 1274 00:52:17,520 --> 00:52:18,560 Speaker 1: personal reasons. 1275 00:52:19,320 --> 00:52:19,640 Speaker 8: Aaron E. 1276 00:52:19,800 --> 00:52:24,120 Speaker 6: Smith TJ. McConnell both questionable with some injuries. For what 1277 00:52:24,200 --> 00:52:26,680 Speaker 6: it's worth, it beats A. Zubots is now listed officially 1278 00:52:26,719 --> 00:52:30,560 Speaker 6: as out. He was questionable at times last week right 1279 00:52:30,600 --> 00:52:34,440 Speaker 6: after the trade, so do not expect Zubots playing anytime soon. 1280 00:52:34,520 --> 00:52:36,640 Speaker 6: The Pacers are favored. They're favored by three and a 1281 00:52:36,680 --> 00:52:40,000 Speaker 6: half in this one, so again back to back with Washington. 1282 00:52:40,360 --> 00:52:42,560 Speaker 6: If you look at the standings right now, Washington just 1283 00:52:42,800 --> 00:52:47,160 Speaker 6: above them with the worst record in the NBA, I think, 1284 00:52:47,200 --> 00:52:49,680 Speaker 6: the second worst record in the league. So these two 1285 00:52:49,760 --> 00:52:52,640 Speaker 6: games matter a whole lot. And the Pacers play several 1286 00:52:52,719 --> 00:52:55,360 Speaker 6: of these teams kind of the top ten of the 1287 00:52:55,480 --> 00:52:56,640 Speaker 6: lottery standings here. 1288 00:52:56,640 --> 00:52:59,040 Speaker 1: Early in their return from the All Star break. 1289 00:52:59,000 --> 00:53:02,360 Speaker 2: All right at the picks in Italy, team USA outlasting 1290 00:53:02,440 --> 00:53:07,000 Speaker 2: Sweden and an Olympic thriller yesterday in overtime, Mark, can 1291 00:53:07,040 --> 00:53:08,439 Speaker 2: I hear it one more time? 1292 00:53:13,920 --> 00:53:14,040 Speaker 9: Now? 1293 00:53:14,080 --> 00:53:14,880 Speaker 5: I'm playing Hughes. 1294 00:53:14,920 --> 00:53:18,560 Speaker 11: We've played three and a half minutes and overtime with us. 1295 00:53:19,040 --> 00:53:24,239 Speaker 1: His dolls re use it over time. 1296 00:53:24,360 --> 00:53:25,520 Speaker 12: What's in now in. 1297 00:53:25,560 --> 00:53:26,480 Speaker 1: The United States? 1298 00:53:27,719 --> 00:53:29,080 Speaker 11: On that face? 1299 00:53:29,080 --> 00:53:31,720 Speaker 1: Still talk to him in the semmis. 1300 00:53:33,280 --> 00:53:36,440 Speaker 2: Wow that had come after Mika Zebonajade had tied it 1301 00:53:36,560 --> 00:53:38,719 Speaker 2: up with a minute and a half remaining in regulation 1302 00:53:39,320 --> 00:53:39,920 Speaker 2: for Sweden. 1303 00:53:40,040 --> 00:53:40,759 Speaker 3: So a thrilling guy. 1304 00:53:40,800 --> 00:53:42,759 Speaker 2: I may or may not have said a really bad 1305 00:53:42,840 --> 00:53:46,239 Speaker 2: word when that regulation score was tied at one. 1306 00:53:46,320 --> 00:53:48,440 Speaker 6: Key, I'm not gonna lie when you said, Mark, we 1307 00:53:48,560 --> 00:53:50,120 Speaker 6: hear one more time?

So the thing about hockey is 1326 00:54:30,960 --> 00:54:32,759 Speaker 2: you get one or two lucky goals here or there, 1327 00:54:33,160 --> 00:54:35,160 Speaker 2: you just keep throwing things at the puck or the 1328 00:54:35,239 --> 00:54:37,120 Speaker 2: pucket the net and hope that something goes in and 1329 00:54:37,200 --> 00:54:40,919 Speaker 2: we'll see if Team USA can advance past that. Three 1330 00:54:40,960 --> 00:54:44,960 Speaker 2: of the four semi or quarterfinal games were in overtime yesterday. 1331 00:54:44,640 --> 00:54:46,000 Speaker 3: James so a terrific day. 1332 00:54:46,440 --> 00:54:48,880 Speaker 2: To watch hockey yesterday a lot of stress, and today 1333 00:54:49,480 --> 00:54:52,480 Speaker 2: the women will play Canada for the gold medal at 1334 00:54:52,640 --> 00:54:56,200 Speaker 2: one ten in the afternoon. Canada has won four of 1335 00:54:56,280 --> 00:54:59,839 Speaker 2: the six gold medal meetings against Team USA for the women, 1336 00:55:00,400 --> 00:55:02,520 Speaker 2: but tim USA is a pretty heavy favorite. 1337 00:55:02,600 --> 00:55:05,000 Speaker 3: They won a preliminary game against Canada ten days ago. 1338 00:55:05,640 --> 00:55:08,040 Speaker 2: Five to nothing was the score in that one. So 1339 00:55:08,120 --> 00:55:10,000 Speaker 2: we'll keep an eye on all those things. Anything else 1340 00:55:10,040 --> 00:55:12,160 Speaker 2: you want to throw in, guys before we head off 1341 00:55:12,239 --> 00:55:13,840 Speaker 2: to start talking some college basketball? 1342 00:55:13,920 --> 00:55:16,640 Speaker 6: Yeah, I think you mentioned in the opening segment that again, Bruce, 1343 00:55:16,680 --> 00:55:18,319 Speaker 6: we we're gonna join us here in just a minute. 1344 00:55:18,360 --> 00:55:21,680 Speaker 6: That Yukon loss last night at home to Creighton. Braylan 1345 00:55:21,719 --> 00:55:24,759 Speaker 6: Mullens did have twenty five in that game, so he 1346 00:55:24,880 --> 00:55:28,000 Speaker 6: continues to really score. 1347 00:55:27,840 --> 00:55:28,640 Speaker 1: At a very high level. 1348 00:55:29,440 --> 00:55:33,080 Speaker 6: Here for lottery Plosky's Yeah, we had Kevin Sweeney, NBA 1349 00:55:33,160 --> 00:55:35,560 Speaker 6: draft analysts on earlier this week.

The Olympics, she said she. 1358 00:55:54,640 --> 00:55:57,120 Speaker 2: Hopes that this will be the last procedure in Italy 1359 00:55:57,239 --> 00:55:58,960 Speaker 2: that will allow her to return home to the United 1360 00:55:59,000 --> 00:56:01,880 Speaker 2: States to continue her with recovery for a fifth surgery 1361 00:56:01,960 --> 00:56:02,759 Speaker 2: once she gets home. 1362 00:56:02,880 --> 00:56:04,680 Speaker 1: So she broke that bone pretty badly. 1363 00:56:05,160 --> 00:56:07,640 Speaker 3: The ACL is only one of the five surgeries. 1364 00:56:08,200 --> 00:56:10,160 Speaker 1: Jeez, the things you do for sports to get well soon, 1365 00:56:10,280 --> 00:56:10,719 Speaker 1: linds you long. 1366 00:56:10,840 --> 00:56:12,359 Speaker 2: She put out a video the other day too, saying 1367 00:56:12,440 --> 00:56:16,200 Speaker 2: she has no regrets and they had decided that she 1368 00:56:16,280 --> 00:56:17,879 Speaker 2: could make one or two runs down the hill. 1369 00:56:18,000 --> 00:56:20,800 Speaker 3: She just missed the gate.

This is uh. I was just 1386 00:57:03,520 --> 00:57:07,120 Speaker 7: texting with a friend and this is the fun time 1387 00:57:07,160 --> 00:57:09,920 Speaker 7: of year. You're you're trying to fight for those seeds 1388 00:57:10,080 --> 00:57:15,360 Speaker 7: and in the NCAA tournament, trying to battle for conference championships, 1389 00:57:15,480 --> 00:57:18,360 Speaker 7: and you got some really, really good teams in the 1390 00:57:18,440 --> 00:57:18,880 Speaker 7: Big Ten. 1391 00:57:19,400 --> 00:57:21,360 Speaker 1: Coaches always, we appreciate the time. 1392 00:57:21,480 --> 00:57:23,400 Speaker 6: And let's start right there with the best team in 1393 00:57:23,480 --> 00:57:26,760 Speaker 6: the Big Ten we saw in wes Lafayette on Tuesday night. 1394 00:57:26,920 --> 00:57:29,479 Speaker 6: I can't recall last time I've seen a team maybe 1395 00:57:29,560 --> 00:57:31,840 Speaker 6: this dominant, in particular because the Big Ten is also 1396 00:57:31,920 --> 00:57:34,080 Speaker 6: so loaded, which I think is adding to. 1397 00:57:34,120 --> 00:57:35,640 Speaker 1: The impressive nature of Michigan. 1398 00:57:36,720 --> 00:57:39,240 Speaker 6: Can you, I guess, recall a time we've seen a 1399 00:57:39,280 --> 00:57:41,920 Speaker 6: team look like this and just their domination in some 1400 00:57:42,000 --> 00:57:43,680 Speaker 6: of these point totals Michigan has put up. 1401 00:57:44,400 --> 00:57:47,720 Speaker 7: Yeah, maybe maybe my zero five team were pretty good, 1402 00:57:48,760 --> 00:57:51,120 Speaker 7: but we didn't have the size they had. Obviously we 1403 00:57:51,280 --> 00:57:54,680 Speaker 7: played small ball at that time, and if you go back, 1404 00:57:54,840 --> 00:57:57,680 Speaker 7: we won by I don't know what our difference was 1405 00:57:57,920 --> 00:58:01,120 Speaker 7: plus over fifteen a game. You know, we didn't have 1406 00:58:01,520 --> 00:58:04,120 Speaker 7: They said we only trailed one time by nine points 1407 00:58:04,200 --> 00:58:07,040 Speaker 7: or something. I heard that stad the other day. But 1408 00:58:07,600 --> 00:58:11,920 Speaker 7: they're really really good, There's no doubt about it. You know, 1409 00:58:12,080 --> 00:58:15,560 Speaker 7: they got the size, they have the depth. They just 1410 00:58:15,760 --> 00:58:19,720 Speaker 7: have toughness and that that kind of to me set 1411 00:58:19,800 --> 00:58:22,800 Speaker 7: them a part. You go on the road and do 1412 00:58:22,920 --> 00:58:27,640 Speaker 7: what they've done at Michigan State, a Purdue, just jumping 1413 00:58:27,760 --> 00:58:31,520 Speaker 7: on people. It's it's really really impressive. 1414 00:58:32,320 --> 00:58:32,640 Speaker 1: Bruce. 1415 00:58:32,840 --> 00:58:34,760 Speaker 5: Thank you so much for mentioning that this is James 1416 00:58:34,840 --> 00:58:37,600 Speaker 5: Boyd Illinois alum. So when you bring up five, that 1417 00:58:37,800 --> 00:58:40,280 Speaker 5: was my childhood right there. So I get the flex 1418 00:58:40,320 --> 00:58:42,640 Speaker 5: on muscle's. You know, when Illinois football lost bot million, 1419 00:58:42,720 --> 00:58:44,280 Speaker 5: I I was feeling it for a few months and 1420 00:58:44,280 --> 00:58:46,200 Speaker 5: now I'm from get a little swagger back here in 1421 00:58:46,280 --> 00:58:49,760 Speaker 5: basketball season. But looking at the overall bigtown I know 1422 00:58:49,760 --> 00:58:52,959 Speaker 5: you touched on it a little bit, but how would 1423 00:58:52,960 --> 00:58:56,640 Speaker 5: you evaluate the season that Purdue has had, considering that 1424 00:58:57,160 --> 00:59:00,400 Speaker 5: they still are in line to be you know three 1425 00:59:00,560 --> 00:59:03,440 Speaker 5: or possibly even a two seed in the NCAA Tournament. 1426 00:59:03,640 --> 00:59:06,040 Speaker 5: But they were the preseason number one, and they've kind 1427 00:59:06,080 --> 00:59:08,240 Speaker 5: of hit some uh you know, snacks in the road. 1428 00:59:09,200 --> 00:59:11,560 Speaker 7: Yeah, and you know, I I talked to Matt off 1429 00:59:11,680 --> 00:59:15,320 Speaker 7: and on, and you know, they they've lost the big games. 1430 00:59:15,760 --> 00:59:20,360 Speaker 7: You know, you're talking Iowa State, Illinois, the you know, 1431 00:59:20,600 --> 00:59:23,960 Speaker 7: the Key Keaton Woggler game, which is you know, just 1432 00:59:24,080 --> 00:59:27,240 Speaker 7: one of those special special games and it happens, and 1433 00:59:28,400 --> 00:59:31,200 Speaker 7: and and then obviously the Michigan game. They haven't been 1434 00:59:31,240 --> 00:59:34,960 Speaker 7: able to compete with those, you know, those big dogs 1435 00:59:35,320 --> 00:59:35,520 Speaker 7: U C. 1436 00:59:35,720 --> 00:59:35,880 Speaker 12: L A. 1437 00:59:36,000 --> 00:59:38,760 Speaker 7: I thought they at a game they probably should have won, 1438 00:59:38,840 --> 00:59:43,000 Speaker 7: and I and they probably feel that. But it's they're 1439 00:59:43,080 --> 00:59:45,600 Speaker 7: still good. They're a very good team. As you mentioned, 1440 00:59:45,600 --> 00:59:47,680 Speaker 7: they're going to be a high seed. They're they're going 1441 00:59:47,720 --> 00:59:48,400 Speaker 7: to have a chance. 1442 00:59:49,680 --> 00:59:50,080 Speaker 1: Teams. 1443 00:59:50,240 --> 00:59:53,360 Speaker 7: I don't think people always realize teams get better or 1444 00:59:53,400 --> 00:59:56,120 Speaker 7: they get worse during the season, and you know, you 1445 00:59:56,280 --> 01:00:00,160 Speaker 7: still have time to get better. Obviously, Michigan's continue need 1446 01:00:00,200 --> 01:00:04,280 Speaker 7: to get better. You know, you see Illinois last night, 1447 01:00:04,440 --> 01:00:07,600 Speaker 7: they had those guys pieces back to the to the 1448 01:00:07,720 --> 01:00:12,440 Speaker 7: equation with Sakovich and Boswell back, they seem to get better. So, 1449 01:00:13,720 --> 01:00:16,760 Speaker 7: you know, I think Purdue still has time to make improvement, 1450 01:00:16,840 --> 01:00:20,280 Speaker 7: figure some things out. You know. They they're very, very 1451 01:00:20,440 --> 01:00:25,920 Speaker 7: efficient on offense. They're very good rebounding team, but their 1452 01:00:26,040 --> 01:00:28,680 Speaker 7: defense has to get a little bit better. I think 1453 01:00:28,720 --> 01:00:30,240 Speaker 7: if they're going to make any type of run. 1454 01:00:31,360 --> 01:00:33,560 Speaker 2: Bruce Weber joining us here on the Payloss Liickkers Hotline 1455 01:00:33,600 --> 01:00:37,880 Speaker 2: this morning. Let's talk about Darren Devre's first year at Indiana. 1456 01:00:38,240 --> 01:00:41,800 Speaker 2: He came in literally has a brand new lineup. They're 1457 01:00:41,880 --> 01:00:43,960 Speaker 2: hanging with teams. They got that win over Purdue a 1458 01:00:44,000 --> 01:00:46,120 Speaker 2: couple of weeks ago. They've had some nice wins, they've 1459 01:00:46,120 --> 01:00:49,000 Speaker 2: had some tough spots. How would you rate his first 1460 01:00:49,120 --> 01:00:51,200 Speaker 2: year beginning to end so far? 1461 01:00:51,880 --> 01:00:54,200 Speaker 7: I think he's done a really good job. I had 1462 01:00:54,360 --> 01:00:58,120 Speaker 7: I had them early against the Nebraska, and Nebraska they 1463 01:00:58,200 --> 01:01:00,760 Speaker 7: had him. I think it was fifteen eighteen points. They 1464 01:01:00,840 --> 01:01:03,120 Speaker 7: were beating them at home, and Nebraska came back. They 1465 01:01:03,280 --> 01:01:06,479 Speaker 7: unbelievable come back and beat them. And and Nebraska's really 1466 01:01:06,520 --> 01:01:10,040 Speaker 7: good too. You know, they might not be in that 1467 01:01:10,240 --> 01:01:13,600 Speaker 7: elite elite up at the top of those Michigan Illinois. 1468 01:01:13,640 --> 01:01:16,680 Speaker 7: But hey, you know you they've competed with Michigan and 1469 01:01:16,880 --> 01:01:21,120 Speaker 7: Illinois beat them once, so they're good. So it. But Indiana, 1470 01:01:22,360 --> 01:01:25,560 Speaker 7: I like what he's done, you know, a total new roster. 1471 01:01:25,760 --> 01:01:28,800 Speaker 7: He's been able to find some nice pieces the one 1472 01:01:28,880 --> 01:01:31,840 Speaker 7: thing they don't have, and the rest of the Big 1473 01:01:31,880 --> 01:01:35,320 Speaker 7: ten has us you know, really good size and and 1474 01:01:35,720 --> 01:01:40,080 Speaker 7: some inside force and and that's been probably the difference maker. 1475 01:01:41,000 --> 01:01:45,400 Speaker 7: But you know, I love Wokerson. They've seen them gotten 1476 01:01:45,520 --> 01:01:48,520 Speaker 7: tougher and that's allowed them to win some of these 1477 01:01:49,200 --> 01:01:52,240 Speaker 7: these tough games down the stretch, beating U c.

It's both 1481 01:02:06,080 --> 01:02:08,840 Speaker 7: the physical toughness and the mental toughness that makes a 1482 01:02:08,920 --> 01:02:13,600 Speaker 7: difference between you know, advancing to that Sweet sixteen, getting 1483 01:02:13,640 --> 01:02:16,040 Speaker 7: to that eight, and then finally to the final four. 1484 01:02:16,600 --> 01:02:18,480 Speaker 1: And that's the voice of Verus Weavery's with us here 1485 01:02:18,600 --> 01:02:21,240 Speaker 1: on the Payloss Slickers hotline.

Obviously. I go 1502 01:03:04,400 --> 01:03:07,760 Speaker 7: way back to Isaiah that my first year, you know, 1503 01:03:07,840 --> 01:03:10,160 Speaker 7: we had to faith him, you know, and that that 1504 01:03:10,360 --> 01:03:12,320 Speaker 7: team was really really special. 1505 01:03:12,880 --> 01:03:13,000 Speaker 3: Uh. 1506 01:03:13,160 --> 01:03:16,200 Speaker 7: You you mentioned Calbert Cheney. Eric you know a guy 1507 01:03:16,320 --> 01:03:20,120 Speaker 7: that brought to my mind is Eric Anderson just consistent 1508 01:03:20,400 --> 01:03:23,000 Speaker 7: and and he was there forever and got better and 1509 01:03:23,120 --> 01:03:27,520 Speaker 7: better and uh but you know Calvert was so hard 1510 01:03:27,600 --> 01:03:31,320 Speaker 7: to guard. That whole team, you know, they they they 1511 01:03:31,400 --> 01:03:33,520 Speaker 7: went small ball coach, and I when you know he 1512 01:03:33,600 --> 01:03:35,840 Speaker 7: doesn't get credit for that, I bet that you know 1513 01:03:36,000 --> 01:03:38,760 Speaker 7: they played small that year. They switched everything, forced you 1514 01:03:38,880 --> 01:03:39,640 Speaker 7: to the sideline. 1515 01:03:40,000 --> 01:03:41,160 Speaker 1: It was so hard to scoot. 1516 01:03:41,200 --> 01:03:43,680 Speaker 7: They were good offensively, but they were really really good 1517 01:03:43,840 --> 01:03:47,520 Speaker 7: defensively also, So uh, there there's. 1518 01:03:47,440 --> 01:03:48,560 Speaker 1: A lot of oh J. 1519 01:03:48,880 --> 01:03:52,640 Speaker 7: Edwards making a big shot against us and beating us.

When I look at us, I mean, 1627 01:08:55,320 --> 01:08:57,599 Speaker 14: I think with Daniel Jones, how much we were humming. 1628 01:08:57,960 --> 01:09:00,760 Speaker 14: I think clearly you see Alec Pierre submerge as a 1629 01:09:00,840 --> 01:09:03,599 Speaker 14: number one receiver and not just a deep ball threat, 1630 01:09:03,640 --> 01:09:05,519 Speaker 14: but how good he is possession wise, and he had 1631 01:09:05,560 --> 01:09:07,960 Speaker 14: a tremendous season. To me, when you talk about your 1632 01:09:07,960 --> 01:09:09,600 Speaker 14: own in house free agents, you hope that you can 1633 01:09:09,640 --> 01:09:12,519 Speaker 14: get deals with those guys done, maybe sooner than later, 1634 01:09:12,720 --> 01:09:14,280 Speaker 14: you know. And I know there's part of tests in 1635 01:09:14,320 --> 01:09:17,040 Speaker 14: the free agency and not but when I look on 1636 01:09:17,120 --> 01:09:19,479 Speaker 14: the defensive side, and I know Chris Baller talked about 1637 01:09:19,520 --> 01:09:21,200 Speaker 14: we got to get younger, we got to get faster. 1638 01:09:21,360 --> 01:09:24,000 Speaker 14: To me, it's pass rush coming off the edge, and 1639 01:09:24,479 --> 01:09:26,840 Speaker 14: so many games in the NFL, fellas, as you know, 1640 01:09:27,320 --> 01:09:29,000 Speaker 14: come down to a two minute drill at the end 1641 01:09:29,000 --> 01:09:30,880 Speaker 14: of the half, come down to a two minute drill 1642 01:09:30,880 --> 01:09:32,800 Speaker 14: at the end of the game, or one possession in 1643 01:09:32,840 --> 01:09:34,679 Speaker 14: the fourth quarter where the other team's got the ball, 1644 01:09:35,120 --> 01:09:36,880 Speaker 14: and we got to be able to stop them, and 1645 01:09:37,040 --> 01:09:39,639 Speaker 14: to do that you have to have closers on the edge. 1646 01:09:40,320 --> 01:09:42,200 Speaker 14: And you know, there were just way too many times 1647 01:09:42,280 --> 01:09:45,280 Speaker 14: this year when we were rushing four guys versus five 1648 01:09:45,360 --> 01:09:49,439 Speaker 14: man offensive line and we weren't able to consistently generate pressure. 1649 01:09:49,520 --> 01:09:52,679 Speaker 14: So to me, when you look outside external free agents, 1650 01:09:52,720 --> 01:09:56,120 Speaker 14: you know, I know there's Hendrickson and Cincinnati, and you know, 1651 01:09:56,160 --> 01:09:58,000 Speaker 14: I know you got Phillips and Philly, and you know 1652 01:09:58,120 --> 01:10:01,400 Speaker 14: Chubb got released, and I know those guys aren't cheap, right, 1653 01:10:01,600 --> 01:10:04,320 Speaker 14: But I just think, whether it's free agency, whether it's 1654 01:10:04,360 --> 01:10:07,240 Speaker 14: the draft, we got to continue to generate more pressure 1655 01:10:07,400 --> 01:10:10,080 Speaker 14: off the edge for this team really to take the 1656 01:10:10,240 --> 01:10:12,840 Speaker 14: next step defensively on where we want to go. 1657 01:10:13,800 --> 01:10:16,800 Speaker 5: Joe, to your point about that, I want to follow 1658 01:10:16,920 --> 01:10:19,800 Speaker 5: up because I kind of view it through a similar lens. 1659 01:10:19,840 --> 01:10:21,840 Speaker 5: But at the same time, I can hear some Colts 1660 01:10:21,880 --> 01:10:24,000 Speaker 5: fans saying, well, the guys you just named aren't all 1661 01:10:24,040 --> 01:10:26,800 Speaker 5: that young, James and Joe, They're not, you know, the 1662 01:10:27,080 --> 01:10:31,080 Speaker 5: younger variety. However, how do you view it perhaps as 1663 01:10:31,120 --> 01:10:33,040 Speaker 5: a balance, like, do you think there's a balance that 1664 01:10:33,160 --> 01:10:37,040 Speaker 5: can be striked here between getting younger and faster but 1665 01:10:37,160 --> 01:10:40,120 Speaker 5: also getting productive players, if that makes sense. 1666 01:10:40,800 --> 01:10:42,720 Speaker 14: Yeah, And I think younger and faster is a thing 1667 01:10:42,880 --> 01:10:45,280 Speaker 14: overall that the defense does need to address, and I 1668 01:10:45,320 --> 01:10:48,800 Speaker 14: would agree with Chris's comments there. I think though, when specifically, 1669 01:10:48,800 --> 01:10:51,040 Speaker 14: if you're talking about edge pressure to defensive end, I mean, 1670 01:10:51,400 --> 01:10:53,639 Speaker 14: you know, I played with Robert Mathis and Dwight Freeney 1671 01:10:53,640 --> 01:10:55,720 Speaker 14: when they were thirty four to thirty five and you 1672 01:10:55,800 --> 01:10:57,880 Speaker 14: still couldn't block them, right, And so I think there 1673 01:10:58,200 --> 01:11:00,360 Speaker 14: are certain guys even though Hendrickson, I think third one. 1674 01:11:00,439 --> 01:11:02,519 Speaker 14: You know, if you think, okay, he's healthy and we 1675 01:11:02,600 --> 01:11:05,120 Speaker 14: can get you know, three four years out of him, 1676 01:11:05,240 --> 01:11:06,679 Speaker 14: you know, kind of in the peak of his career, 1677 01:11:06,760 --> 01:11:09,040 Speaker 14: because there is that balance as an edge rusher, right 1678 01:11:09,120 --> 01:11:11,720 Speaker 14: as an offensive lineman where you've got more experience and 1679 01:11:11,760 --> 01:11:13,760 Speaker 14: you know which move you have and which counter move, 1680 01:11:14,040 --> 01:11:16,439 Speaker 14: you know how to set up offensive linemen and then 1681 01:11:16,520 --> 01:11:18,720 Speaker 14: go attack him. And you know, to me, that's just 1682 01:11:18,840 --> 01:11:22,920 Speaker 14: still the I think our secondary while wasn't totally healthy. 1683 01:11:22,680 --> 01:11:23,880 Speaker 8: And didn't get to see the full thing. 1684 01:11:23,920 --> 01:11:26,920 Speaker 14: When you got Sauce and you got Wally that nobody's 1685 01:11:26,960 --> 01:11:28,560 Speaker 14: talking about, who, by the way, was going to be 1686 01:11:28,640 --> 01:11:31,439 Speaker 14: a starter going into training camp, and you got buying 1687 01:11:31,520 --> 01:11:33,840 Speaker 14: him in the secondary. Cross is another one, right. I 1688 01:11:33,880 --> 01:11:35,920 Speaker 14: mean I love Cross. I think Cross at a great year, 1689 01:11:36,320 --> 01:11:38,080 Speaker 14: But at the end of the day, there's there's a 1690 01:11:38,160 --> 01:11:40,600 Speaker 14: limited amount of cap dollars, right, and guys are going 1691 01:11:40,680 --> 01:11:43,120 Speaker 14: to test the open market, and how many of those 1692 01:11:43,360 --> 01:11:45,519 Speaker 14: in house free agents can we sign, you know, Cross 1693 01:11:45,600 --> 01:11:47,680 Speaker 14: and Braden Smith or two guys that, yeah, you'd love 1694 01:11:47,760 --> 01:11:51,280 Speaker 14: to resign but doesn't make sense money wise. But when 1695 01:11:51,320 --> 01:11:53,639 Speaker 14: I go back to the edge specifically, to me, it's 1696 01:11:53,720 --> 01:11:56,240 Speaker 14: just about getting a really good production kind of out 1697 01:11:56,280 --> 01:11:58,320 Speaker 14: of that spots and we got to find a way 1698 01:11:58,360 --> 01:11:59,519 Speaker 14: to make that better next year. 1699 01:12:00,000 --> 01:12:01,760 Speaker 2: I drilled down a little bit deeper on offense. How 1700 01:12:01,760 --> 01:12:04,760 Speaker 2: are you feeling about Daniel Jones coming back from that 1701 01:12:05,000 --> 01:12:07,840 Speaker 2: injury and who he actually is and can be? 1702 01:12:09,800 --> 01:12:10,400 Speaker 3: I think great. 1703 01:12:10,520 --> 01:12:13,000 Speaker 8: I'm a big Daniel Jones fan. I've been a Daniel 1704 01:12:13,080 --> 01:12:14,600 Speaker 8: Jones fan since the. 1705 01:12:14,600 --> 01:12:17,479 Speaker 14: First day I saw him just in Graham Park, just 1706 01:12:17,560 --> 01:12:20,040 Speaker 14: in terms of his command of the offense, what he does. 1707 01:12:20,200 --> 01:12:22,960 Speaker 14: You hear everything about how hard he works, and you 1708 01:12:23,080 --> 01:12:26,160 Speaker 14: saw what the offense was doing and how productive and 1709 01:12:26,200 --> 01:12:27,240 Speaker 14: how efficient. 1710 01:12:26,880 --> 01:12:29,680 Speaker 7: They were through ten games, and then you know he 1711 01:12:30,280 --> 01:12:31,200 Speaker 7: had a severe. 1712 01:12:30,960 --> 01:12:33,400 Speaker 14: Injury, right, that happened, and he played on it and 1713 01:12:33,520 --> 01:12:35,320 Speaker 14: he was tough and he didn't complain about it, and 1714 01:12:35,360 --> 01:12:37,519 Speaker 14: then he had another severe injury. So you think the 1715 01:12:37,560 --> 01:12:39,800 Speaker 14: biggest question mark obviously his health and how is his 1716 01:12:39,920 --> 01:12:43,040 Speaker 14: achilles and how you know, will he be ready to 1717 01:12:43,080 --> 01:12:44,920 Speaker 14: start the season, will he be one hundred percent, will 1718 01:12:45,000 --> 01:12:46,920 Speaker 14: be close to one hundred percent. But I just think 1719 01:12:47,000 --> 01:12:49,080 Speaker 14: you saw kind of a perfect marriage with him in 1720 01:12:49,240 --> 01:12:52,759 Speaker 14: Shane Stike, and I think Daniel Jones's ability to process 1721 01:12:52,840 --> 01:12:55,080 Speaker 14: information to get the ball where it needs to go 1722 01:12:55,680 --> 01:12:58,639 Speaker 14: it really kind of unlocked Shane Stiken as a play caller, 1723 01:12:58,680 --> 01:13:01,040 Speaker 14: and you see kind of the perfect marriage in terms 1724 01:13:01,080 --> 01:13:03,240 Speaker 14: of they were using every inch of the field, as 1725 01:13:03,280 --> 01:13:05,439 Speaker 14: my friend Rick Venturi would say, right, and they were 1726 01:13:05,479 --> 01:13:09,080 Speaker 14: attacking defenses and it was beautiful to watch. And so 1727 01:13:09,360 --> 01:13:11,639 Speaker 14: I really I like Jones. I mean, to me, he's 1728 01:13:11,680 --> 01:13:14,719 Speaker 14: your biggest priority to re sign. I know he's indicated 1729 01:13:14,760 --> 01:13:16,439 Speaker 14: he wants to come back here, which is great, but 1730 01:13:16,640 --> 01:13:17,720 Speaker 14: you know, at the end of the day, you got 1731 01:13:17,840 --> 01:13:20,880 Speaker 14: to get involved in contract negotiations and make that fit. 1732 01:13:21,040 --> 01:13:23,479 Speaker 14: And then to me, it's Jones and Pierce, and you know, 1733 01:13:23,520 --> 01:13:25,400 Speaker 14: if you get to get those two guys back with 1734 01:13:25,560 --> 01:13:27,960 Speaker 14: our offense with Tyler Warren, how much better he's going 1735 01:13:28,040 --> 01:13:29,960 Speaker 14: to be in the second year, and other weapons we 1736 01:13:30,080 --> 01:13:32,920 Speaker 14: have and o Jonathan Taylor, who had a great season 1737 01:13:33,080 --> 01:13:35,000 Speaker 14: until you know, kind of the end, and I think 1738 01:13:35,080 --> 01:13:37,559 Speaker 14: there's a there's multiple reasons why kind of the running 1739 01:13:37,640 --> 01:13:39,960 Speaker 14: game fell off, but you got to feel really good 1740 01:13:39,960 --> 01:13:42,160 Speaker 14: about your offense moving forward to twenty twenty six. 1741 01:13:42,760 --> 01:13:45,599 Speaker 6: That is the voice of Joe Wright's voys Sectional drawl 1742 01:13:45,800 --> 01:13:48,080 Speaker 6: here in high school hoops coming up on Sundays got 1743 01:13:48,160 --> 01:13:51,200 Speaker 6: me thinking back to it, Joe writes Tony Passley matchup 1744 01:13:51,280 --> 01:13:53,840 Speaker 6: back in the day inside the Eric Clark Activity Center 1745 01:13:54,280 --> 01:13:55,080 Speaker 6: at Kevin Bowen. 1746 01:13:55,280 --> 01:14:00,720 Speaker 1: Very very excited there at Carmel. The combine is no week, Joe, 1747 01:14:00,800 --> 01:14:03,080 Speaker 1: And I think for the most part, our audience knows 1748 01:14:03,240 --> 01:14:07,120 Speaker 1: your story. Excellent, excellent high school and college basketball. Played 1749 01:14:07,160 --> 01:14:09,000 Speaker 1: high school fotball player as well, but. 1750 01:14:09,080 --> 01:14:11,920 Speaker 6: A college basketball player and then made the change over 1751 01:14:12,000 --> 01:14:15,000 Speaker 6: to football. Did you have a combine did you tag 1752 01:14:15,040 --> 01:14:18,599 Speaker 6: along with some other college football combine? What was your 1753 01:14:19,200 --> 01:14:23,640 Speaker 6: I guess Pro day experience like before the Ravens nabbed you. 1754 01:14:24,560 --> 01:14:25,880 Speaker 8: Yeah, great question. 1755 01:14:26,120 --> 01:14:29,639 Speaker 14: So you know, think our MAC tournament ended in mid March, 1756 01:14:29,760 --> 01:14:31,479 Speaker 14: so you know, the combine was already done. So I 1757 01:14:31,560 --> 01:14:34,000 Speaker 14: had a pro day at Saint Vincent's Sports Performance. I 1758 01:14:34,040 --> 01:14:36,840 Speaker 14: went and trained there with Ralph Reef and Greg Moore 1759 01:14:37,040 --> 01:14:39,920 Speaker 14: and I had about eight teams there. I did the 1760 01:14:39,960 --> 01:14:42,519 Speaker 14: broad jump, I did the three cone shuttle, I worked out, 1761 01:14:42,640 --> 01:14:45,599 Speaker 14: but you know, my agent, after a good recommendation from 1762 01:14:45,680 --> 01:14:48,240 Speaker 14: Buddy Baker, I didn't run the forty and I didn't bench. 1763 01:14:48,320 --> 01:14:50,760 Speaker 14: Why because I wouldn't ran super fast because I had 1764 01:14:50,800 --> 01:14:53,080 Speaker 14: no time to train, and I was coming off five 1765 01:14:53,160 --> 01:14:55,800 Speaker 14: months of college basketball where I didn't lift a whole lot. 1766 01:14:56,040 --> 01:14:57,960 Speaker 14: So I kind of had the allure that I was 1767 01:14:58,000 --> 01:15:01,280 Speaker 14: a really athletic basketball player, right, So I purposely did 1768 01:15:01,360 --> 01:15:04,120 Speaker 14: not run the forty and put any doubt in teams 1769 01:15:04,240 --> 01:15:07,360 Speaker 14: minds that I was the athletic basketball player. But you know, 1770 01:15:07,400 --> 01:15:09,240 Speaker 14: I got to Baltimore and I played tight end for 1771 01:15:09,320 --> 01:15:11,360 Speaker 14: three days and then John Harbaugh called me in his 1772 01:15:11,439 --> 01:15:13,400 Speaker 14: office and I thought I was going to get cut, 1773 01:15:13,560 --> 01:15:15,479 Speaker 14: like after three days, and I that bad in the 1774 01:15:15,479 --> 01:15:17,920 Speaker 14: first mini camp. He said, hey, Joe, you are what 1775 01:15:18,200 --> 01:15:20,560 Speaker 14: you thought you are. You're you're too slow to be 1776 01:15:20,600 --> 01:15:23,200 Speaker 14: a tight end basically, but you can be an athletic 1777 01:15:23,280 --> 01:15:26,400 Speaker 14: lineman start eating, and I started my track of gaining 1778 01:15:26,439 --> 01:15:29,519 Speaker 14: a lot of weight in a short time. And thankfully, 1779 01:15:29,560 --> 01:15:30,960 Speaker 14: at the end of the day, you know, the good 1780 01:15:31,000 --> 01:15:33,080 Speaker 14: Lord brought me back here to Indy and was able 1781 01:15:33,120 --> 01:15:34,400 Speaker 14: to have a lot of fun with the Colts for 1782 01:15:34,640 --> 01:15:35,760 Speaker 14: several years and the. 1783 01:15:35,800 --> 01:15:36,519 Speaker 1: Rest is history. 1784 01:15:36,560 --> 01:15:39,280 Speaker 6: As they say, you mentioned right there in the previous 1785 01:15:39,360 --> 01:15:41,960 Speaker 6: answer about the run game, it's wild to look back 1786 01:15:41,960 --> 01:15:44,720 Speaker 6: at the correlation of Jonathan Taylor in the yards per 1787 01:15:44,800 --> 01:15:46,400 Speaker 6: carry in the final two months of the season, something 1788 01:15:46,479 --> 01:15:49,200 Speaker 6: Chris Ballard mentioned at the end of the season press conference. 1789 01:15:49,280 --> 01:15:51,920 Speaker 6: You mentioned a few reasons why you thought the run 1790 01:15:52,040 --> 01:15:54,360 Speaker 6: game dipped as much as it did, and really, I 1791 01:15:54,360 --> 01:15:55,960 Speaker 6: guess fell off a cliff is probably the better way 1792 01:15:56,000 --> 01:15:57,360 Speaker 6: to put it, based off where it was at the 1793 01:15:57,360 --> 01:15:58,040 Speaker 6: first two months. 1794 01:15:58,320 --> 01:15:59,479 Speaker 1: What are some of those reasons. 1795 01:16:00,280 --> 01:16:02,920 Speaker 14: Yeah, the biggest reason in my mind was, you know, 1796 01:16:03,200 --> 01:16:06,160 Speaker 14: when Jones especially and when he was hurting and then 1797 01:16:06,280 --> 01:16:08,840 Speaker 14: got hurt and we didn't have kind of the threat 1798 01:16:08,880 --> 01:16:11,559 Speaker 14: of the downfield passing game. What did teams do? They 1799 01:16:11,680 --> 01:16:13,839 Speaker 14: just started playing us closer to the line of scrimmage, 1800 01:16:13,880 --> 01:16:16,479 Speaker 14: and whether it's bringing another safety down in the box. 1801 01:16:16,600 --> 01:16:19,439 Speaker 14: Sometimes you can block a play perfectly, but if they 1802 01:16:19,520 --> 01:16:21,800 Speaker 14: got more numbers than you, it's going to be hard 1803 01:16:21,840 --> 01:16:24,320 Speaker 14: to break a big run. And then what happened was 1804 01:16:24,439 --> 01:16:26,519 Speaker 14: we weren't getting levels of the defense. I mean, you 1805 01:16:26,600 --> 01:16:29,720 Speaker 14: got your first level defensive line, then your linebackers, then 1806 01:16:29,760 --> 01:16:31,719 Speaker 14: your safeties. Well, if there's a threat of an RPO 1807 01:16:31,880 --> 01:16:34,040 Speaker 14: game or us throwing the ball like we did so 1808 01:16:34,240 --> 01:16:36,800 Speaker 14: well early in the games, you know, we were throwing 1809 01:16:36,840 --> 01:16:39,200 Speaker 14: the score and running to win. As they say, there's 1810 01:16:39,360 --> 01:16:41,880 Speaker 14: levels in their separation. So Taylor can break through the 1811 01:16:41,960 --> 01:16:44,559 Speaker 14: line and now he's got a couple yard bubble where 1812 01:16:44,560 --> 01:16:46,880 Speaker 14: he can make a move on a linebacker safety and 1813 01:16:47,000 --> 01:16:48,600 Speaker 14: make a miss. And that's what you saw like in 1814 01:16:48,720 --> 01:16:51,080 Speaker 14: Tennessee when he made three guys miss on one run 1815 01:16:51,160 --> 01:16:53,479 Speaker 14: and took a fifty yards to the house. Now, when 1816 01:16:53,520 --> 01:16:55,400 Speaker 14: those guys get close to the line of scrimmage thing, 1817 01:16:55,680 --> 01:16:57,800 Speaker 14: there's not those levels. Everybody's kind of at like a 1818 01:16:57,920 --> 01:17:00,120 Speaker 14: flat wall. So then if there's three guys stand in 1819 01:17:00,160 --> 01:17:03,280 Speaker 14: there two yards you know, away from the line of scrimmage, 1820 01:17:03,520 --> 01:17:06,040 Speaker 14: it's just really hard to make like two guys miss 1821 01:17:06,080 --> 01:17:08,639 Speaker 14: at the same time, or break a tackle with two guys, 1822 01:17:08,680 --> 01:17:09,400 Speaker 14: if that makes sense. 1823 01:17:09,479 --> 01:17:11,000 Speaker 8: I think that's the biggest reason. 1824 01:17:11,520 --> 01:17:14,759 Speaker 14: And then I think two, we got behind in more games, 1825 01:17:15,040 --> 01:17:18,400 Speaker 14: you know, overall big picture, and so when you're ahead 1826 01:17:18,439 --> 01:17:20,559 Speaker 14: by ten points in the fourth quarter, you can pound 1827 01:17:20,600 --> 01:17:22,280 Speaker 14: the rock and pound the rock and pound the rock. 1828 01:17:22,320 --> 01:17:24,439 Speaker 14: When it's a tight game or you're behind and you 1829 01:17:24,560 --> 01:17:26,280 Speaker 14: kind of got to get forced to throw to bring 1830 01:17:26,360 --> 01:17:29,200 Speaker 14: it back, it's just harder to dial up those runs 1831 01:17:29,640 --> 01:17:31,719 Speaker 14: because you got to kind of pass to keep yourself 1832 01:17:31,800 --> 01:17:34,160 Speaker 14: in the game. I mean, so to me, Jones, getting 1833 01:17:34,200 --> 01:17:37,360 Speaker 14: back and being healthy and having just all the different 1834 01:17:37,439 --> 01:17:40,879 Speaker 14: options in the dynamic passing game in terms of spreading 1835 01:17:40,960 --> 01:17:43,600 Speaker 14: the ball all the way from sideline to sideline and 1836 01:17:43,800 --> 01:17:46,559 Speaker 14: forcing the ball down the field, you do that, that's 1837 01:17:46,680 --> 01:17:48,920 Speaker 14: naturally going to open up the running game, and that's 1838 01:17:48,960 --> 01:17:50,800 Speaker 14: going to let Taylor do what he does, which is 1839 01:17:50,920 --> 01:17:52,960 Speaker 14: get through the initial line if it's blocked well by 1840 01:17:53,000 --> 01:17:55,160 Speaker 14: the O line, and then go take a three or 1841 01:17:55,200 --> 01:17:58,000 Speaker 14: four yard run and rip it for fifty. He just 1842 01:17:58,120 --> 01:18:01,120 Speaker 14: didn't have that because there were more bodies in tight spaces, 1843 01:18:01,600 --> 01:18:02,400 Speaker 14: if that makes sense. 1844 01:18:03,360 --> 01:18:05,160 Speaker 2: Joe Wrights, before we let you go, if there was 1845 01:18:05,320 --> 01:18:10,000 Speaker 2: one Olympic Winter sport that you would excel in, what 1846 01:18:10,120 --> 01:18:10,600 Speaker 2: would it be. 1847 01:18:11,400 --> 01:18:14,839 Speaker 8: Oh, it wouldn't be many. Probably curling is where. 1848 01:18:14,680 --> 01:18:18,120 Speaker 14: I would maybe thrive just because it's a low running, 1849 01:18:18,200 --> 01:18:21,880 Speaker 14: low pressure sport. I like the strategy and curling. I 1850 01:18:22,000 --> 01:18:26,200 Speaker 14: confess I probably watched more curling than I should, but 1851 01:18:26,280 --> 01:18:27,839 Speaker 14: it's fine. I love the Winter Olympics. 1852 01:18:28,040 --> 01:18:28,800 Speaker 1: You know, when I was. 1853 01:18:29,200 --> 01:18:32,320 Speaker 14: Playing at Western Michigan in two thousand and six, right 1854 01:18:32,400 --> 01:18:34,800 Speaker 14: where the Winter Olympics were going on, had the we'd 1855 01:18:34,800 --> 01:18:37,320 Speaker 14: always do starting lineups and we would always do silly stuff. 1856 01:18:37,600 --> 01:18:40,120 Speaker 14: We went on a Winter Olympics binge for about a month, 1857 01:18:40,560 --> 01:18:42,360 Speaker 14: so every home game when we would ge announced, we 1858 01:18:42,360 --> 01:18:45,240 Speaker 14: would do a different event. We would simulate figure skating 1859 01:18:45,720 --> 01:18:46,280 Speaker 14: or hockey. 1860 01:18:46,520 --> 01:18:47,599 Speaker 1: Love this or curling. 1861 01:18:47,720 --> 01:18:48,320 Speaker 7: It was awesome. 1862 01:18:48,920 --> 01:18:51,439 Speaker 14: Part of me really wants to see those videos because 1863 01:18:51,479 --> 01:18:53,519 Speaker 14: it would be hilarious. Part of me would be like, wow, 1864 01:18:53,600 --> 01:18:56,000 Speaker 14: you guys were idiots. I just think like, we're playing 1865 01:18:56,040 --> 01:18:57,519 Speaker 14: these teams to get pumped up for the game and 1866 01:18:57,560 --> 01:19:01,080 Speaker 14: they're watching us simulate figure skating over there. But that 1867 01:19:01,240 --> 01:19:02,960 Speaker 14: was our way of saying, Hey, we're gonna let these 1868 01:19:03,000 --> 01:19:05,240 Speaker 14: teams think we're a bunch of jokers before we go 1869 01:19:05,360 --> 01:19:07,000 Speaker 14: out and hopefully put it to them. 1870 01:19:07,040 --> 01:19:10,719 Speaker 6: At Western Michigan, Joe, a massive curling match underway, United 1871 01:19:10,800 --> 01:19:11,800 Speaker 6: States Switzerland. 1872 01:19:11,920 --> 01:19:13,920 Speaker 1: Win and get in right now for the women.

I guess some sort of bill 1943 01:22:37,720 --> 01:22:40,719 Speaker 6: that needs to be passed here within the state, whereas Illinois, 1944 01:22:40,720 --> 01:22:44,200 Speaker 6: according to that report, not the smoke they want I 1945 01:22:44,280 --> 01:22:46,120 Speaker 6: guess for Arlington Heights here. 1946 01:22:46,240 --> 01:22:50,400 Speaker 4: So wow, Illinois is shuffling their feet and might cost 1947 01:22:50,520 --> 01:22:53,559 Speaker 4: them the Bears, which I don't think George McCaskey wants 1948 01:22:53,600 --> 01:22:55,040 Speaker 4: to do. He want to be known as the guy 1949 01:22:55,120 --> 01:22:57,679 Speaker 4: that got the Bears out of Chicago or the state 1950 01:22:57,720 --> 01:23:00,360 Speaker 4: of Illinois. But if Illinois is not, you know, going 1951 01:23:00,439 --> 01:23:02,920 Speaker 4: to play ball, they might be heading and Hammond. 1952 01:23:03,160 --> 01:23:05,479 Speaker 3: So do they continue to have their head quarters? 1953 01:23:05,960 --> 01:23:08,080 Speaker 2: Do they have the continue to have their headquarters up 1954 01:23:08,160 --> 01:23:10,320 Speaker 2: in the northern suburbs and then just play the games. 1955 01:23:10,120 --> 01:23:12,200 Speaker 4: On something still in Lake Forest And they just spend 1956 01:23:12,200 --> 01:23:15,160 Speaker 4: one hundred million dollars of it on renovating it just 1957 01:23:15,200 --> 01:23:17,560 Speaker 4: a few years ago. So I know the NFL is 1958 01:23:17,600 --> 01:23:19,679 Speaker 4: making money hand over fist, but one hundred million dollars 1959 01:23:19,760 --> 01:23:22,599 Speaker 4: for your facilities is a no chump change. 1960 01:23:22,760 --> 01:23:24,880 Speaker 2: See, we're worried about what the cult roster is going 1961 01:23:24,960 --> 01:23:26,479 Speaker 2: to look like next year. The Bears are just worried 1962 01:23:26,479 --> 01:23:27,519 Speaker 2: about where they're going to play. 1963 01:23:28,680 --> 01:23:32,000 Speaker 5: That is one of the funnier questions that I believe 1964 01:23:32,080 --> 01:23:35,720 Speaker 5: happens every time we meet with Roger Goodell throughout the offseason, 1965 01:23:36,320 --> 01:23:39,240 Speaker 5: there is someone there of the Bears contingent or the 1966 01:23:39,280 --> 01:23:41,960 Speaker 5: Bears beat asking about the Bear Stadium update, and they 1967 01:23:42,000 --> 01:23:42,920 Speaker 5: usually have nothing to say. 1968 01:23:43,520 --> 01:23:47,000 Speaker 1: They are at Soldier Field through what I believe. 1969 01:23:47,040 --> 01:23:49,240 Speaker 4: The lease goes through twenty thirty two. Now, they can 1970 01:23:49,280 --> 01:23:51,120 Speaker 4: obviously get out of that lease if they want to 1971 01:23:51,240 --> 01:23:54,280 Speaker 4: and if they pay it out, but yeah, I believe 1972 01:23:54,280 --> 01:23:55,679 Speaker 4: it's till the end the twenty thirties. 1973 01:23:55,760 --> 01:23:57,920 Speaker 1: So lord, I won't even be here to see the 1974 01:23:58,000 --> 01:23:58,519 Speaker 1: Harry Bears. 1975 01:23:58,640 --> 01:23:58,840 Speaker 9: I know. 1976 01:23:59,320 --> 01:23:59,479 Speaker 1: I know. 1977 01:24:00,000 --> 01:24:01,479 Speaker 4: Well again, they can buy themselves out of it, and 1978 01:24:01,520 --> 01:24:04,800 Speaker 4: it's not gonna be too costly, but still they they 1979 01:24:04,840 --> 01:24:06,320 Speaker 4: are in there for a little bit longer. 1980 01:24:06,560 --> 01:24:06,880 Speaker 1: All right. 1981 01:24:06,920 --> 01:24:08,760 Speaker 2: Coming up in a moment, we uh talk about the 1982 01:24:08,800 --> 01:24:11,040 Speaker 2: Indiana Pacers back on the court tonight after an All 1983 01:24:11,080 --> 01:24:13,200 Speaker 2: Star break. Who will play? What does the rest of 1984 01:24:13,240 --> 01:24:15,559 Speaker 2: the season look like? We'll discuss it all next At 1985 01:24:15,600 --> 01:24:16,280 Speaker 2: ninety three five And. 1986 01:24:25,520 --> 01:24:26,320 Speaker 3: You were listening to the. 1987 01:24:26,439 --> 01:24:33,439 Speaker 8: Fan Morning show on sports Radio, and. 1988 01:24:36,720 --> 01:24:38,880 Speaker 2: Here you go, James, Boy, got your head moving back 1989 01:24:38,920 --> 01:24:39,760 Speaker 2: and forth right there. 1990 01:24:41,520 --> 01:24:43,120 Speaker 1: Gotta like that ash is what they play in the 1991 01:24:43,120 --> 01:24:48,240 Speaker 1: Olympic Village. I like it back to a little fifty 1992 01:24:48,280 --> 01:24:50,680 Speaker 1: cent candy shot music video there that might have not 1993 01:24:50,880 --> 01:24:53,200 Speaker 1: been safe for the old high school computer. So I 1994 01:24:53,280 --> 01:24:54,320 Speaker 1: was searching that on back. 1995 01:24:57,120 --> 01:24:59,880 Speaker 5: Yeah, why do you have all these viruses on this think, Kevin? 1996 01:25:00,560 --> 01:25:02,519 Speaker 1: I was not on my log in. You find the 1997 01:25:02,520 --> 01:25:04,639 Speaker 1: computer where it's logged in on somebody else, right there 1998 01:25:04,640 --> 01:25:05,840 Speaker 1: you go, and then you look all that up. 1999 01:25:06,800 --> 01:25:10,760 Speaker 2: Let's talk basketball at Pacers in their All Star break hiatus. Tonight, 2000 01:25:10,840 --> 01:25:13,400 Speaker 2: they'll be in Washington take on the Wizards. They'll play 2001 01:25:13,400 --> 01:25:16,160 Speaker 2: the Wizards again tomorrow night. Both teams sitting at the 2002 01:25:16,240 --> 01:25:19,120 Speaker 2: bottom of the Eastern Conference standings right now. Both teams 2003 01:25:19,520 --> 01:25:21,280 Speaker 2: want to make sure they position themselves to have the 2004 01:25:21,360 --> 01:25:24,600 Speaker 2: best possible draft pick this coming year. Well, already we 2005 01:25:24,720 --> 01:25:27,040 Speaker 2: know the PACER's been fined one hundred thousand dollars for 2006 01:25:28,000 --> 01:25:31,280 Speaker 2: potential tanking activities and things like that. And let's take 2007 01:25:31,320 --> 01:25:33,519 Speaker 2: a look ahead at what is termed the second half 2008 01:25:33,560 --> 01:25:35,719 Speaker 2: of the season in the NBA for Indiana. 2009 01:25:35,800 --> 01:25:37,640 Speaker 3: We'll check in with our man the. 2010 01:25:37,640 --> 01:25:40,240 Speaker 2: Fieldhouse Files, Scott Agnes joins us now in the Payless 2011 01:25:40,280 --> 01:25:41,080 Speaker 2: Liquors Hotline. 2012 01:25:41,720 --> 01:25:43,800 Speaker 3: This is going to get creative and interesting. What do 2013 01:25:43,880 --> 01:25:45,599 Speaker 3: you expect to see tonight my man. 2014 01:25:46,920 --> 01:25:48,960 Speaker 9: Yeah, good morning guys. First of all, you never know 2015 01:25:49,080 --> 01:25:51,280 Speaker 9: what happens between these two teams, right, It was just 2016 01:25:51,439 --> 01:25:54,080 Speaker 9: several years ago when I think both you know, they 2017 01:25:54,160 --> 01:25:58,439 Speaker 9: combined for like two hundred and sixty points in Washington, 2018 01:25:58,640 --> 01:26:03,679 Speaker 9: But nonetheless very different circumstances here, with both teams looking 2019 01:26:03,800 --> 01:26:08,160 Speaker 9: closer to the draft lottery than any postseason competition. Of course, 2020 01:26:08,200 --> 01:26:11,160 Speaker 9: the Pacers one of their last two games going into 2021 01:26:11,680 --> 01:26:15,200 Speaker 9: All Star Break, but I think you're gonna see a 2022 01:26:15,280 --> 01:26:18,360 Speaker 9: mixed match of lineups, could probably Jeff for the rest 2023 01:26:18,400 --> 01:26:20,920 Speaker 9: of the season and in them. Yeah, creative is probably 2024 01:26:21,240 --> 01:26:25,320 Speaker 9: a thoughtful way here. I'd still like to see Zoubox 2025 01:26:25,400 --> 01:26:28,680 Speaker 9: make his PACER's debut. I think that would be important 2026 01:26:28,720 --> 01:26:32,320 Speaker 9: for a little bit. But outside of that, between Furfy 2027 01:26:32,400 --> 01:26:36,439 Speaker 9: obviously out and then Haliburton topping and and now how 2028 01:26:36,600 --> 01:26:40,560 Speaker 9: are siakam for this game in particular. Yeah, it's what 2029 01:26:40,800 --> 01:26:43,080 Speaker 9: you'll also see hear and we should probably highlight is 2030 01:26:43,120 --> 01:26:46,439 Speaker 9: it's an ample opportunity now for some of the young guys. 2031 01:26:46,479 --> 01:26:49,799 Speaker 9: And then one I'm thinking about most is Jeris Walker Scott. 2032 01:26:50,120 --> 01:26:53,519 Speaker 6: We obviously have seen thee hundred thousand dollars fine if 2033 01:26:53,600 --> 01:26:57,880 Speaker 6: you had to guess, and I fully acknowledge guessing is 2034 01:26:57,960 --> 01:27:00,599 Speaker 6: probably the only thing we're doing here with how much 2035 01:27:00,680 --> 01:27:03,480 Speaker 6: gray area the NBA has had in these punishments. 2036 01:27:04,080 --> 01:27:06,840 Speaker 1: What do you think like punishment two in three would 2037 01:27:06,880 --> 01:27:07,200 Speaker 1: look like? 2038 01:27:07,439 --> 01:27:10,160 Speaker 6: Like if the NBA deems the Pacers is whatever, this 2039 01:27:10,240 --> 01:27:12,320 Speaker 6: is their first offense one hundred thousand dollars fine. 2040 01:27:12,720 --> 01:27:13,960 Speaker 4: Do you think it goes? 2041 01:27:14,240 --> 01:27:17,360 Speaker 1: Second offense is another fine? Third offense is a draft 2042 01:27:17,400 --> 01:27:20,240 Speaker 1: pick removal? Or do you think something else? 2043 01:27:21,760 --> 01:27:25,080 Speaker 9: Yeah, so I believe it's it's it's like two hundred 2044 01:27:25,080 --> 01:27:28,360 Speaker 9: and fifty thousand or five hundred thousands. The next one 2045 01:27:28,400 --> 01:27:31,760 Speaker 9: after three, if I remember correctly, is where I'm it's 2046 01:27:31,840 --> 01:27:35,160 Speaker 9: kind of gray area, and we don't exactly know. Consult Lake, 2047 01:27:36,040 --> 01:27:38,400 Speaker 9: the Utah Jazz had been fined before four. It that's 2048 01:27:38,479 --> 01:27:42,320 Speaker 9: why they're fine, was more substantial than the Pacers, whereas 2049 01:27:42,360 --> 01:27:44,360 Speaker 9: this is the first time the Pacers have been fined 2050 01:27:44,400 --> 01:27:45,760 Speaker 9: for this capacity. 2051 01:27:46,479 --> 01:27:49,320 Speaker 5: Scott, I know you mentioned there briefly that you would 2052 01:27:49,520 --> 01:27:53,360 Speaker 5: like Zubas to make his debut with the Pacers this season. 2053 01:27:54,439 --> 01:27:56,080 Speaker 5: Why is that because we were kind of debating that 2054 01:27:56,120 --> 01:27:57,720 Speaker 5: earlier here on the show, Like would you want to 2055 01:27:57,760 --> 01:27:59,920 Speaker 5: see him this year? Do you just embrace the tank 2056 01:28:00,000 --> 01:28:03,160 Speaker 5: think he's not playing with Halliburton anyway? So maybe what 2057 01:28:03,240 --> 01:28:04,200 Speaker 5: are some of the pros and cons? 2058 01:28:05,240 --> 01:28:07,439 Speaker 9: Yeah, and you can see it both ways, certainly, But 2059 01:28:07,520 --> 01:28:09,519 Speaker 9: I'll stick with the pros on this front for a 2060 01:28:09,600 --> 01:28:12,960 Speaker 9: little bit. I think one gets certain things out of 2061 01:28:13,040 --> 01:28:14,960 Speaker 9: the way, like playing in front of your home fans 2062 01:28:15,000 --> 01:28:16,920 Speaker 9: for the first time, playing on the road for the 2063 01:28:17,000 --> 01:28:19,840 Speaker 9: first time, learning what it's like with Carlisle as the 2064 01:28:19,920 --> 01:28:22,559 Speaker 9: coach when he's shouting out plays and running a huddle 2065 01:28:22,800 --> 01:28:26,040 Speaker 9: when you're engaged within that. But more than anything, James, 2066 01:28:26,120 --> 01:28:28,640 Speaker 9: I'd like to see him get ample time with Siakam, 2067 01:28:28,880 --> 01:28:32,880 Speaker 9: with Nemhard learn their tendencies so that it's not one 2068 01:28:32,880 --> 01:28:35,080 Speaker 9: of those situations where you're having to wait until the 2069 01:28:35,200 --> 01:28:38,240 Speaker 9: fall to do so. And one of the similar but 2070 01:28:38,360 --> 01:28:42,320 Speaker 9: not exactly situations I point to is TJ McConnell suffered 2071 01:28:42,360 --> 01:28:43,960 Speaker 9: a some injury several years ago. 2072 01:28:44,120 --> 01:28:44,479 Speaker 1: Could have. 2073 01:28:46,080 --> 01:28:49,040 Speaker 9: Or I at the time figured Nay, he probably is 2074 01:28:49,080 --> 01:28:51,599 Speaker 9: not going to return. What's the point here, and as 2075 01:28:51,720 --> 01:28:54,840 Speaker 9: such a competitor that he was wanted to return, wanted 2076 01:28:54,920 --> 01:28:57,200 Speaker 9: to be there for his team, and wanted to help 2077 01:28:57,280 --> 01:29:00,320 Speaker 9: out a little bit a little different situation, but he 2078 01:29:00,439 --> 01:29:03,120 Speaker 9: was like, I'm so glad I did because then, and 2079 01:29:03,400 --> 01:29:06,080 Speaker 9: learning this from Paul George, you could make by coming 2080 01:29:06,200 --> 01:29:08,320 Speaker 9: back for like four or five games at minimum like 2081 01:29:08,400 --> 01:29:11,519 Speaker 9: PG did. His summer was not about Rehabit was not 2082 01:29:11,600 --> 01:29:14,320 Speaker 9: about the newness or that. It's about Hey, let's just 2083 01:29:14,400 --> 01:29:16,800 Speaker 9: turn the page to next season. And so that's where 2084 01:29:16,840 --> 01:29:18,240 Speaker 9: I could see value in doing so. 2085 01:29:19,040 --> 01:29:21,240 Speaker 2: Scott Agnes joining us in the fieldhouse files talk a 2086 01:29:21,240 --> 01:29:25,600 Speaker 2: little Pacers right now as they we talked about this 2087 01:29:25,720 --> 01:29:28,080 Speaker 2: moment ago as they get creative here down the stretch. 2088 01:29:28,080 --> 01:29:30,080 Speaker 2: I thought it was very interesting that Carlisle said that 2089 01:29:30,120 --> 01:29:33,679 Speaker 2: they'll manage the team as we see fit moving forward. 2090 01:29:34,280 --> 01:29:36,719 Speaker 1: How does creativity look in this situation. 2091 01:29:38,360 --> 01:29:40,880 Speaker 9: I think that's something they're probably trying to figure out 2092 01:29:41,000 --> 01:29:46,280 Speaker 9: this week certainly, and that goes on all different fronts. 2093 01:29:46,479 --> 01:29:50,760 Speaker 9: I enjoyed Kevin Pritchard engaging with fans on Twitter to say, Hey, 2094 01:29:51,120 --> 01:29:53,120 Speaker 9: what are your feelings? What do you think about this? 2095 01:29:53,280 --> 01:29:56,439 Speaker 9: I thought Mark Cubans raised some good points other things 2096 01:29:56,479 --> 01:30:01,400 Speaker 9: that maybe don't necessarily I see fit with some of this, 2097 01:30:01,640 --> 01:30:05,200 Speaker 9: But I think it's a scenario, Jeff where you're just 2098 01:30:05,280 --> 01:30:09,880 Speaker 9: gonna have to play guys certain certain games and then 2099 01:30:10,120 --> 01:30:12,920 Speaker 9: play them not in other games. And I think Rick 2100 01:30:13,080 --> 01:30:15,200 Speaker 9: is right in that front is hey, look, I know 2101 01:30:15,320 --> 01:30:18,320 Speaker 9: we're part of the collective, we're NBA, and we got 2102 01:30:18,400 --> 01:30:20,920 Speaker 9: to look out for each other. But at certain times 2103 01:30:20,960 --> 01:30:23,280 Speaker 9: you've got to be selfish and look out for your team. 2104 01:30:23,760 --> 01:30:26,200 Speaker 9: And for this team. I forget what the number is, 2105 01:30:26,320 --> 01:30:29,320 Speaker 9: but it's been significant what this team has done in 2106 01:30:29,400 --> 01:30:32,360 Speaker 9: getting to the playoffs, probably something like thirty one of 2107 01:30:32,400 --> 01:30:36,479 Speaker 9: the last four years, something significant enough, only behind I 2108 01:30:36,560 --> 01:30:39,320 Speaker 9: think the San Antonio Spurs, and so they have been 2109 01:30:39,360 --> 01:30:42,640 Speaker 9: the model of getting to the postseason and having that. 2110 01:30:42,800 --> 01:30:46,040 Speaker 9: But where they want to avoid is that treadmill mediocrity. 2111 01:30:46,080 --> 01:30:48,720 Speaker 9: And part of what that you do is make some 2112 01:30:48,800 --> 01:30:52,720 Speaker 9: strategic decisions, especially in a small market where hey, look, 2113 01:30:52,880 --> 01:30:55,599 Speaker 9: we all know their circumstances. This year, it's not even 2114 01:30:55,800 --> 01:30:58,479 Speaker 9: just a top draft picks. It needs to fall within 2115 01:30:58,640 --> 01:31:01,519 Speaker 9: one to four or ten the thirty for them to 2116 01:31:02,080 --> 01:31:05,360 Speaker 9: keep it because of the draft considerations here, and so 2117 01:31:05,479 --> 01:31:09,320 Speaker 9: it is an imperative that they can reach that threshold. 2118 01:31:09,400 --> 01:31:11,960 Speaker 9: But then it's gonna all come down to these lottery 2119 01:31:12,080 --> 01:31:14,720 Speaker 9: numbers and the draft lottery coming up. I think May 2120 01:31:14,800 --> 01:31:15,759 Speaker 9: tenth in Chicago. 2121 01:31:16,240 --> 01:31:18,880 Speaker 6: I think we just got a big rock throw in 2122 01:31:19,040 --> 01:31:22,920 Speaker 6: curling Stone. Is it stone or rock? Mark Dighton look 2123 01:31:22,920 --> 01:31:24,840 Speaker 6: at Stone? Oh man, I think we. 2124 01:31:24,920 --> 01:31:25,760 Speaker 1: Did a good job there. 2125 01:31:25,800 --> 01:31:26,160 Speaker 8: I don't know. 2126 01:31:26,320 --> 01:31:28,800 Speaker 1: The Swiss have got one more throw. I'll keep you 2127 01:31:28,840 --> 01:31:29,360 Speaker 1: posted here. 2128 01:31:29,840 --> 01:31:33,040 Speaker 6: Scott, you mentioned the Cuban aspect to it, you know, 2129 01:31:33,160 --> 01:31:35,720 Speaker 6: Cuban for those that are not addicted to Twitter like 2130 01:31:35,760 --> 01:31:36,160 Speaker 6: Scott and I. 2131 01:31:36,400 --> 01:31:39,120 Speaker 1: I mean, he was tweeting a ton, very long tweets. 2132 01:31:39,120 --> 01:31:42,120 Speaker 6: I'm always confused why they're so long, but a lot 2133 01:31:42,200 --> 01:31:44,720 Speaker 6: of detail in just regards to his tanking experience. 2134 01:31:44,840 --> 01:31:46,160 Speaker 1: You know, what do you thinks the NBA should do? 2135 01:31:46,200 --> 01:31:46,920 Speaker 1: Et cetera, et cetera. 2136 01:31:47,120 --> 01:31:49,120 Speaker 6: You mentioned some things you like, some things you didn't like, 2137 01:31:49,240 --> 01:31:52,559 Speaker 6: and Kevin Pritchard engaged him a little bit there on Twitter. 2138 01:31:52,720 --> 01:31:54,840 Speaker 1: What did you like from Cuban? What didn't you like 2139 01:31:54,920 --> 01:31:55,400 Speaker 1: from Cuban? 2140 01:31:56,400 --> 01:31:58,920 Speaker 9: Well, well, number one I liked, even though I'm surprised 2141 01:31:59,000 --> 01:32:01,400 Speaker 9: he did. It was the transy. He was sitting there 2142 01:32:01,439 --> 01:32:04,679 Speaker 9: saying saying, you know, hey, we tanked at this moment, 2143 01:32:04,880 --> 01:32:07,799 Speaker 9: and we'd tanked here and you know we don't. 2144 01:32:07,720 --> 01:32:08,200 Speaker 4: Like doing it. 2145 01:32:08,320 --> 01:32:11,080 Speaker 9: But we realize this is something that we had to do, 2146 01:32:11,240 --> 01:32:14,240 Speaker 9: and so sometimes it's just seeing it behind the curtain. 2147 01:32:14,320 --> 01:32:16,640 Speaker 9: You know it's talked about, but to actually kind of 2148 01:32:16,680 --> 01:32:19,639 Speaker 9: see it and be discussed and publicly like that, I'm 2149 01:32:19,680 --> 01:32:23,280 Speaker 9: guessing that's something the front office did not enjoy. Kevin 2150 01:32:23,360 --> 01:32:26,439 Speaker 9: trying to have one of your most outspoken owners, even 2151 01:32:26,479 --> 01:32:30,160 Speaker 9: if he is of a minority share Right now, I 2152 01:32:30,200 --> 01:32:33,320 Speaker 9: think he's like twenty nine percent with the Dallas Mavericks. 2153 01:32:33,320 --> 01:32:37,960 Speaker 9: There the challenge, the challenge in all that I find 2154 01:32:38,120 --> 01:32:43,760 Speaker 9: here is it's the positive from it is the hope aspect, 2155 01:32:44,320 --> 01:32:47,920 Speaker 9: but are there other ways you can you can do 2156 01:32:48,160 --> 01:32:52,320 Speaker 9: so without minimizing your product, because that's the number one 2157 01:32:52,400 --> 01:32:54,280 Speaker 9: thing that all these teams have to look out on 2158 01:32:54,680 --> 01:32:57,080 Speaker 9: is you do not want to do devalue or water 2159 01:32:57,240 --> 01:33:01,160 Speaker 9: down the product for these other strategy things we like seeing, 2160 01:33:01,200 --> 01:33:04,639 Speaker 9: strategic into game situations, out of time out plays, how 2161 01:33:04,680 --> 01:33:08,800 Speaker 9: you handle things. It's when this new factor comes in, 2162 01:33:09,400 --> 01:33:12,120 Speaker 9: I'm not sure anybody knows exactly how to handle this 2163 01:33:12,360 --> 01:33:15,080 Speaker 9: and is it healthy for the league. And so that's 2164 01:33:15,120 --> 01:33:18,120 Speaker 9: where they've got to figure something out. But here's what 2165 01:33:18,200 --> 01:33:19,240 Speaker 9: it's also telling. 2166 01:33:19,040 --> 01:33:22,200 Speaker 1: Us kV is all these executives love this draft. 2167 01:33:22,320 --> 01:33:25,960 Speaker 9: If it's not just one two, but many teams thinking 2168 01:33:26,040 --> 01:33:28,439 Speaker 9: this way, it says a lot about this draft class. 2169 01:33:29,520 --> 01:33:31,000 Speaker 1: Scott. Always good to talk to you. 2170 01:33:31,400 --> 01:33:33,800 Speaker 2: One quick thing I'm curious is we head down the 2171 01:33:34,200 --> 01:33:36,400 Speaker 2: second half of the season now, or at least post. 2172 01:33:36,200 --> 01:33:36,920 Speaker 1: All Star Break. 2173 01:33:37,640 --> 01:33:39,040 Speaker 2: At the beginning of the year, we would all just 2174 01:33:39,080 --> 01:33:41,760 Speaker 2: said the way that Oklahoma City started that it's a 2175 01:33:42,000 --> 01:33:43,439 Speaker 2: given they're going to repeat. 2176 01:33:43,560 --> 01:33:43,680 Speaker 9: Right. 2177 01:33:44,000 --> 01:33:45,840 Speaker 3: Who's the best team any NBA right now? 2178 01:33:47,960 --> 01:33:51,760 Speaker 9: I still think it's Oklahoma City Detroit. I think they're 2179 01:33:51,800 --> 01:33:55,280 Speaker 9: going to have some growing pains. They have been incredible 2180 01:33:55,400 --> 01:33:58,400 Speaker 9: this season in the Eastern Conference, certainly Boston with the 2181 01:33:58,520 --> 01:34:01,960 Speaker 9: threat of maybe they're not threat the enticement maybe of 2182 01:34:02,600 --> 01:34:05,439 Speaker 9: Tatum coming back is interesting. But I think all eyes 2183 01:34:05,520 --> 01:34:09,000 Speaker 9: have to be out west with OKAC number one, and 2184 01:34:09,120 --> 01:34:11,920 Speaker 9: it's and it's thirst to beat because they've just been 2185 01:34:12,040 --> 01:34:14,800 Speaker 9: so good when it matters most and they and as 2186 01:34:14,840 --> 01:34:16,760 Speaker 9: long as they get their health right shake gilg just 2187 01:34:16,840 --> 01:34:19,600 Speaker 9: Alexander has been injured for a handful of games and 2188 01:34:19,680 --> 01:34:21,240 Speaker 9: that's really set them back a little bit. 2189 01:34:21,760 --> 01:34:23,120 Speaker 1: All right, But I always good to talk to you. 2190 01:34:23,200 --> 01:34:26,280 Speaker 3: Thanks so much.

It 2201 01:34:48,439 --> 01:34:51,160 Speaker 6: just seems like the strategy is all set up for 2202 01:34:51,280 --> 01:34:54,920 Speaker 6: the final. The final one is the hammered.

First off, 2224 01:35:49,120 --> 01:35:51,320 Speaker 6: it was kind of a cool anecdote. He said he 2225 01:35:51,479 --> 01:35:53,720 Speaker 6: was chatting with some of the Purdue coaches after the 2226 01:35:53,800 --> 01:35:57,160 Speaker 6: game and PJ Thompson, you know, had a comment there 2227 01:35:57,280 --> 01:35:59,439 Speaker 6: of like, did we just play an all star team 2228 01:36:00,120 --> 01:36:02,720 Speaker 6: in regards to Michigan, And you know, just kind of 2229 01:36:02,760 --> 01:36:05,640 Speaker 6: the high praise that you would have for them. And 2230 01:36:05,680 --> 01:36:07,519 Speaker 6: you know, Bruce Weber we had on earlier in the show, 2231 01:36:07,600 --> 01:36:10,280 Speaker 6: he brings up his own five team.

Remember they lose on the Ohio State Crazy 2234 01:36:15,840 --> 01:36:18,400 Speaker 6: Game there very late in the season, and then the 2235 01:36:18,479 --> 01:36:20,360 Speaker 6: wild Game with Arizona and the Elite Eight, and then 2236 01:36:20,360 --> 01:36:23,479 Speaker 6: they lose in the national title of North Carolina. One 2237 01:36:23,479 --> 01:36:25,439 Speaker 6: thing I was struck by on Tuesday night with Michigan though, 2238 01:36:26,080 --> 01:36:30,000 Speaker 6: was they made that run with so many bench guys 2239 01:36:30,040 --> 01:36:33,000 Speaker 6: in the game like that sixteen oh run was with 2240 01:36:33,200 --> 01:36:35,040 Speaker 6: their depth. I mean you look at it all for 2241 01:36:35,200 --> 01:36:37,160 Speaker 6: their bench players that play the other night, they all 2242 01:36:37,200 --> 01:36:39,519 Speaker 6: four hit a three pointer. I think they combined for 2243 01:36:39,640 --> 01:36:42,040 Speaker 6: like thirty or thirty five bench points. I mean that's 2244 01:36:42,120 --> 01:36:44,400 Speaker 6: on the road, in the most hostile environment you're going 2245 01:36:44,439 --> 01:36:46,760 Speaker 6: to probably going to play in all year long, and 2246 01:36:46,920 --> 01:36:50,559 Speaker 6: it's your bench guys that were just cool, calm, collected, 2247 01:36:50,680 --> 01:36:53,920 Speaker 6: variety of guys, variety of different freshman you know, junior, senior, 2248 01:36:53,960 --> 01:36:54,400 Speaker 6: et cetera. 2249 01:36:54,840 --> 01:36:57,800 Speaker 1: And they come in and boom, they don't miss a beat. 2250 01:36:57,880 --> 01:37:00,240 Speaker 6: And I see I feel like so many times on 2251 01:37:00,280 --> 01:37:02,360 Speaker 6: the road you see teams that just kind of drop 2252 01:37:02,520 --> 01:37:05,000 Speaker 6: off and and you know, when you think back the 2253 01:37:05,040 --> 01:37:07,680 Speaker 6: last year's Michigan team too, I mean Danny Wolf and 2254 01:37:07,720 --> 01:37:10,160 Speaker 6: Vlad Golden remember that, like that was their team last year. 2255 01:37:10,360 --> 01:37:13,000 Speaker 6: They were a sweet sixteen team with a lot of 2256 01:37:13,160 --> 01:37:18,320 Speaker 6: different literally top guys than what they have this year. 2257 01:37:18,520 --> 01:37:22,200 Speaker 6: So I just think that adds to the impressive nature. 2258 01:37:22,560 --> 01:37:23,720 Speaker 6: Dusty mace bunch. 2259 01:37:24,720 --> 01:37:28,280 Speaker 2: Uh looking forward to it again.

But and he points out, 2434 01:45:17,720 --> 01:45:19,840 Speaker 6: and again I haven't done a ton of research into 2435 01:45:19,880 --> 01:45:21,960 Speaker 6: this by any means. But he goes, we don't really 2436 01:45:22,000 --> 01:45:24,960 Speaker 6: see how the planned mixed use development would thrive and 2437 01:45:25,040 --> 01:45:30,120 Speaker 6: Hammond like it would in Arlington Heights given population demographics, etc. 2438 01:45:30,680 --> 01:45:35,280 Speaker 4: So it does seem like there's another update. 2439 01:45:35,360 --> 01:45:37,640 Speaker 1: Now there's a lot wow happening here. 2440 01:45:37,960 --> 01:45:40,240 Speaker 4: Adam hoag against a statement from the Chicago Bears on 2441 01:45:40,880 --> 01:45:44,800 Speaker 4: potossible stadium development in Hammond.

But 2584 01:51:47,360 --> 01:51:49,280 Speaker 2: one of the things I think that jim Irsay did 2585 01:51:49,720 --> 01:51:52,640 Speaker 2: and he was committed to, was really bonding with the 2586 01:51:52,720 --> 01:51:55,160 Speaker 2: city of Indianapolis and even the state of Indiana. 2587 01:51:55,520 --> 01:51:57,720 Speaker 3: I think his daughters want to keep that thing going. 2588 01:51:58,120 --> 01:52:02,120 Speaker 2: I think there's a terrific business and fan and every 2589 01:52:02,160 --> 01:52:04,760 Speaker 2: other kind of relationship going on between that team and 2590 01:52:04,880 --> 01:52:08,559 Speaker 2: this area. I can't even fathom, even in the wake 2591 01:52:08,640 --> 01:52:11,080 Speaker 2: of the passing of Jim Orsay, I can't even fathom that. 2592 01:52:11,040 --> 01:52:12,400 Speaker 1: They wouldn't be in Indianapolis. 2593 01:52:12,560 --> 01:52:15,000 Speaker 6: Yeah, Mark, I'm gonna understand your premise of, like with 2594 01:52:15,160 --> 01:52:17,120 Speaker 6: the NFL, you know, view whatever. 2595 01:52:16,960 --> 01:52:19,280 Speaker 1: Two teams in India. I still am not going to 2596 01:52:19,400 --> 01:52:23,760 Speaker 1: view Chicago as an Indiana team. I mean, there's a. 2597 01:52:23,800 --> 01:52:26,719 Speaker 5: Lot to be in Indiana playing games on Indiana soil. 2598 01:52:27,040 --> 01:52:28,960 Speaker 3: What are you talking, says the Chicago native. 2599 01:52:29,120 --> 01:52:30,840 Speaker 1: Hey, I'm just saying, you know, again, where do the 2600 01:52:30,920 --> 01:52:31,920 Speaker 1: Jets and the Giants play? 2601 01:52:32,080 --> 01:52:35,040 Speaker 5: Like I've established this plenty. 2602 01:52:34,800 --> 01:52:37,599 Speaker 6: Of times, So I don't necessarily view like the NFL 2603 01:52:37,640 --> 01:52:38,960 Speaker 6: all of a sudden being like, w oh my gosh, 2604 01:52:39,000 --> 01:52:40,320 Speaker 6: we can't have two teams in Indiana. 2605 01:52:40,400 --> 01:52:42,680 Speaker 1: We've got to take the Colts out of there now. 2606 01:52:43,000 --> 01:52:45,720 Speaker 6: I mean, you know, from a nurse family standpoint, there 2607 01:52:45,720 --> 01:52:48,480 Speaker 6: are many people have asked about, Hey, well, the finances 2608 01:52:48,479 --> 01:52:50,400 Speaker 6: with the team right now and inheritance tax. 2609 01:52:50,160 --> 01:52:50,479 Speaker 4: And all that. 2610 01:52:50,800 --> 01:52:54,879 Speaker 6: So again, I don't expect anything by any means eminently. 2611 01:52:55,640 --> 01:52:57,120 Speaker 1: And you look at the Seahawks yesterday. 2612 01:52:57,160 --> 01:52:59,519 Speaker 6: It's a very different situation, you know, Paul Allen had 2613 01:52:59,560 --> 01:53:02,640 Speaker 6: it in his will that he wanted the Seahawks and 2614 01:53:03,040 --> 01:53:06,200 Speaker 6: the Trailblazers to eventually sell and then take that money 2615 01:53:06,240 --> 01:53:09,760 Speaker 6: and film toopically distribute it. So that's very different than 2616 01:53:10,200 --> 01:53:13,000 Speaker 6: not to pretend that I know Jim Ursy's will, of course, 2617 01:53:13,080 --> 01:53:14,920 Speaker 6: but I can't imagine Jim Rsey had that. 2618 01:53:15,960 --> 01:53:18,599 Speaker 4: Okay, let's go to some Colts talk. Here some interesting 2619 01:53:18,720 --> 01:53:22,360 Speaker 4: articles coming off as the free agency period and new 2620 01:53:22,479 --> 01:53:25,479 Speaker 4: league window is about to open. Bill Barnwell had a 2621 01:53:25,760 --> 01:53:27,880 Speaker 4: just a gigantic article. I feel like you need to 2622 01:53:28,000 --> 01:53:30,240 Speaker 4: like probably take a nap and then read it again. 2623 01:53:30,280 --> 01:53:32,320 Speaker 4: There's so many words, and he must get paid by 2624 01:53:32,400 --> 01:53:34,240 Speaker 4: the word. But he had one of the trades he 2625 01:53:34,320 --> 01:53:38,120 Speaker 4: wants to see in the offseason, and it featured the Colts, 2626 01:53:38,160 --> 01:53:41,760 Speaker 4: and specifically it's ficatured Michael Pittman junior going to the 2627 01:53:41,840 --> 01:53:45,040 Speaker 4: Carolina Panthers, So Michael Pittman and a twenty twenty six 2628 01:53:45,040 --> 01:53:48,040 Speaker 4: to seventh round pick. In response, the Colts would get 2629 01:53:48,320 --> 01:53:51,599 Speaker 4: wide receiver Xavier Lagette and a twenty twenty six fifth 2630 01:53:51,720 --> 01:53:54,280 Speaker 4: round pick. And he said, obviously there's still potential for 2631 01:53:54,320 --> 01:53:57,120 Speaker 4: Michael Pittman junior, but the Colts seem to be focusing 2632 01:53:57,200 --> 01:54:00,479 Speaker 4: on signing Alex Pears toy wh an extension. Could that 2633 01:54:00,560 --> 01:54:02,920 Speaker 4: mean that the Colts could get something from Michael Pittman 2634 01:54:03,040 --> 01:54:05,559 Speaker 4: Junior instead outright releasing him or anything like that. They 2635 01:54:05,640 --> 01:54:08,559 Speaker 4: get a probably lesser wide receiver and savior to get 2636 01:54:09,120 --> 01:54:11,240 Speaker 4: and they also recoup a fifth round pick. Would would 2637 01:54:11,240 --> 01:54:13,679 Speaker 4: be open to the Colts listening to offers for Michael 2638 01:54:13,680 --> 01:54:14,360 Speaker 4: Pittman Jr. 2639 01:54:15,080 --> 01:54:15,680 Speaker 1: Absolutely. 2640 01:54:15,960 --> 01:54:18,800 Speaker 5: I think that anytime you have a player that you're 2641 01:54:18,960 --> 01:54:21,720 Speaker 5: contemplating just outright cutting and you have a chance to 2642 01:54:21,800 --> 01:54:25,360 Speaker 5: recoup some draft capital more importantly than perhaps even a player. 2643 01:54:25,439 --> 01:54:27,720 Speaker 5: I'm not a big get guy. I don't think he 2644 01:54:27,760 --> 01:54:31,760 Speaker 5: had a very good season in Carolina. I don't really 2645 01:54:31,840 --> 01:54:33,800 Speaker 5: think that he's all that good of a player right now. 2646 01:54:34,240 --> 01:54:35,840 Speaker 5: But yeah, if you could take a flyer on him 2647 01:54:35,920 --> 01:54:38,880 Speaker 5: get some draft capital, why not. But I do wonder 2648 01:54:39,080 --> 01:54:41,400 Speaker 5: if that's even a real scenario for the Colts. 2649 01:54:41,600 --> 01:54:43,760 Speaker 6: Yeah, to me, it's a little unrealistic to expect the 2650 01:54:43,800 --> 01:54:46,480 Speaker 6: team to absorb Michael Pittman Junior's. 2651 01:54:46,160 --> 01:54:49,120 Speaker 1: Cap situation and give you a draft pick. Yeah like that. 2652 01:54:49,560 --> 01:54:52,360 Speaker 6: It just seems it seems great, but it doesn't seem 2653 01:54:52,400 --> 01:54:55,560 Speaker 6: like real life. To James's point, I do think, and 2654 01:54:55,600 --> 01:54:57,920 Speaker 6: I've said this all along about Pittman as much as 2655 01:54:58,000 --> 01:55:00,040 Speaker 6: I would give the money to Pierce over pitt And 2656 01:55:00,040 --> 01:55:01,920 Speaker 6: then if you're a debating those two, if you let 2657 01:55:02,000 --> 01:55:05,320 Speaker 6: Michael Pittman Jr. Walk for whatever reason, wide receiver becomes 2658 01:55:05,360 --> 01:55:08,360 Speaker 6: a notable need, and you have to do that in 2659 01:55:08,520 --> 01:55:10,680 Speaker 6: some way, shape or form, Like if ad Mitchell is 2660 01:55:10,680 --> 01:55:14,720 Speaker 6: stilling the roster, you could maybe say, hey, look, we feel. 2661 01:55:14,520 --> 01:55:15,720 Speaker 1: Like it's now Mitchell's time. 2662 01:55:15,840 --> 01:55:18,880 Speaker 6: There's you know, Ashton Dolan to me, love the guy, 2663 01:55:18,960 --> 01:55:21,160 Speaker 6: but yeah, you can't expect him play fifty sixty snaps 2664 01:55:21,200 --> 01:55:22,720 Speaker 6: for seventeen weeks offensively. 2665 01:55:22,880 --> 01:55:24,960 Speaker 1: So wide receiver would become a definite need. 2666 01:55:25,560 --> 01:55:27,560 Speaker 2: I agree on that, but I'll also tell you to 2667 01:55:27,680 --> 01:55:29,720 Speaker 2: back your I've seen him play in person a bunch 2668 01:55:29,720 --> 01:55:33,600 Speaker 2: of times. Xavier Lagette is not a legitimate big time 2669 01:55:33,760 --> 01:55:36,480 Speaker 2: NFL wide receiver. He can't catch the ball, he makes 2670 01:55:36,560 --> 01:55:40,840 Speaker 2: mental mistakes. He's really struggled with Carolina in his first 2671 01:55:40,880 --> 01:55:41,600 Speaker 2: two seasons. 2672 01:55:41,680 --> 01:55:41,880 Speaker 4: There. 2673 01:55:43,080 --> 01:55:44,960 Speaker 2: If you want to get something back for Michael Pittman, 2674 01:55:44,960 --> 01:55:46,680 Speaker 2: I'm all for that, but please don't. 2675 01:55:46,480 --> 01:55:47,600 Speaker 3: Give me Xavier Lagette. 2676 01:55:47,680 --> 01:55:51,320 Speaker 2: Good by the way terrific kid, but it just sucks. 2677 01:55:51,560 --> 01:55:53,840 Speaker 2: Just can't play, just can't just can't catch. 2678 01:55:54,440 --> 01:55:56,480 Speaker 3: It's tough when you play wide receiver in the NFL. 2679 01:55:56,520 --> 01:55:57,640 Speaker 1: It's tough when you can't catch. 2680 01:55:58,520 --> 01:55:59,040 Speaker 5: That is true. 2681 01:55:59,160 --> 01:56:02,280 Speaker 4: Okay to Kevin Bowen, I don't think. But Matt Bowen 2682 01:56:02,400 --> 01:56:06,600 Speaker 4: of ESPN had his fifty top players and the best 2683 01:56:06,640 --> 01:56:07,480 Speaker 4: fits for each of them. 2684 01:56:07,800 --> 01:56:08,880 Speaker 1: At the top of the board. 2685 01:56:09,800 --> 01:56:12,840 Speaker 4: He had Trey Hendrickson and the best team fit, the 2686 01:56:13,000 --> 01:56:17,120 Speaker 4: Indianapolis Colts. He says. Colts general manager Chris Baler can 2687 01:56:17,160 --> 01:56:19,400 Speaker 4: make a big splash laying the top free agent on 2688 01:56:19,480 --> 01:56:23,200 Speaker 4: our board and hendricks re reunit with defensive coordinator lou Anarumo. 2689 01:56:24,200 --> 01:56:27,360 Speaker 4: Curious your thoughts. Would you like to see Trey Hendrickson 2690 01:56:27,920 --> 01:56:30,160 Speaker 4: signed with the Colts or would that go against Chris 2691 01:56:30,200 --> 01:56:32,960 Speaker 4: Ballard saying they need to get younger and faster defensively. 2692 01:56:33,200 --> 01:56:35,920 Speaker 6: Yeah, the name I've mentioned is Adapa away from the Chargers, 2693 01:56:36,000 --> 01:56:39,360 Speaker 6: a little bit younger, not the recent injury history that 2694 01:56:39,440 --> 01:56:44,520 Speaker 6: Trey Hendrickson has, so yeah, I'd be a little hesitant. Obviously, 2695 01:56:44,520 --> 01:56:48,680 Speaker 6: Hendrickson went healthy, has been an extremely great pass rusher, 2696 01:56:48,720 --> 01:56:50,680 Speaker 6: But I just worry about the age and the health, 2697 01:56:51,200 --> 01:56:52,880 Speaker 6: which I feel like I say that about a lot 2698 01:56:52,920 --> 01:56:53,600 Speaker 6: of Colts players. 2699 01:56:55,080 --> 01:56:57,040 Speaker 1: I'm good with taking a flyer on him. 2700 01:56:57,360 --> 01:57:00,480 Speaker 5: I don't want a long term deal, but hey, one 2701 01:57:00,560 --> 01:57:04,040 Speaker 5: year deal, one year flyer on Trey Hendrickson, were you 2702 01:57:04,160 --> 01:57:07,520 Speaker 5: not able Leuennarumo perhaps feeling healthier than he was last year. 2703 01:57:07,840 --> 01:57:09,920 Speaker 5: I'm good with it because I think realistically, you can't 2704 01:57:09,960 --> 01:57:12,560 Speaker 5: say you want to get younger and faster, and that'd 2705 01:57:12,600 --> 01:57:14,440 Speaker 5: be like a hard and fast rule for how you 2706 01:57:14,520 --> 01:57:17,320 Speaker 5: build your entire defense. You're gonna have to make some 2707 01:57:17,480 --> 01:57:21,200 Speaker 5: concessions in different parts of your roster. So again that's 2708 01:57:21,240 --> 01:57:24,000 Speaker 5: where I get into the whole younger and faster versus 2709 01:57:24,040 --> 01:57:26,840 Speaker 5: they've been productive, versus their relationship with Leuannroumo. I think 2710 01:57:26,880 --> 01:57:29,400 Speaker 5: that's Ray Andreson is worth. Is somebody worth adding to 2711 01:57:29,440 --> 01:57:31,600 Speaker 5: your roster if you can and if it doesn't work out, hey, 2712 01:57:32,000 --> 01:57:33,360 Speaker 5: just one year deal and is what it is. 2713 01:57:33,560 --> 01:57:35,680 Speaker 2: James, I'm all in on that if they could get him. 2714 01:57:36,080 --> 01:57:38,040 Speaker 2: I don't know quite how they could make that work. 2715 01:57:38,080 --> 01:57:40,040 Speaker 2: While they have to address some of the other needs 2716 01:57:40,080 --> 01:57:42,400 Speaker 2: that they have. They have to get creative, and I'm. 2717 01:57:42,240 --> 01:57:42,680 Speaker 3: All for it. 2718 01:57:43,120 --> 01:57:45,120 Speaker 2: But it was very interesting when we were listening to 2719 01:57:45,440 --> 01:57:48,080 Speaker 2: Joe Wright's about an hour ago when he was saying, 2720 01:57:48,480 --> 01:57:50,720 Speaker 2: you know, he was used to blocking guys that were 2721 01:57:50,760 --> 01:57:51,640 Speaker 2: in their mid thirties. 2722 01:57:51,720 --> 01:57:53,600 Speaker 3: Now they were tremendous guys. And he was talking about 2723 01:57:53,640 --> 01:57:55,440 Speaker 3: Robert Mathis and some of those guys. 2724 01:57:55,520 --> 01:57:57,960 Speaker 2: He said, they know how to rush the passer and 2725 01:57:58,000 --> 01:58:00,400 Speaker 2: they still had plenty of physical ability to do so 2726 01:58:01,000 --> 01:58:01,640 Speaker 2: keep him healthy. 2727 01:58:01,720 --> 01:58:04,360 Speaker 1: I think Hendrickson he can still be a game wrecker 2728 01:58:04,400 --> 01:58:05,120 Speaker 1: at times. 2729 01:58:05,080 --> 01:58:07,200 Speaker 5: And again, his salary wouldn't be as big as it's 2730 01:58:07,200 --> 01:58:09,440 Speaker 5: been a year's past. So that's why I'll probably lane 2731 01:58:09,440 --> 01:58:11,480 Speaker 5: towards at least trying to take see if he and him, 2732 01:58:11,600 --> 01:58:15,000 Speaker 5: Bradley Chubb, somebody of that older variety perhaps joining the 2733 01:58:15,040 --> 01:58:15,640 Speaker 5: Colts next year. 2734 01:58:15,680 --> 01:58:18,360 Speaker 4: All right, last, but not least, what are we watching, folks? 2735 01:58:18,440 --> 01:58:20,160 Speaker 4: What do you got on your streaming services? What are 2736 01:58:20,160 --> 01:58:21,200 Speaker 4: you firing up this weekend? 2737 01:58:21,280 --> 01:58:22,080 Speaker 1: Or what have you watched? 2738 01:58:22,280 --> 01:58:25,000 Speaker 4: Well, Curling Kevin showing his phone, Curling. 2739 01:58:26,000 --> 01:58:28,640 Speaker 1: Swift Swiss about to throw the hammer. 2740 01:58:29,360 --> 01:58:33,839 Speaker 5: Oh boy, I'm gonna say a Night of the Seven Kingdoms. 2741 01:58:34,120 --> 01:58:34,320 Speaker 1: Ooh. 2742 01:58:34,560 --> 01:58:38,960 Speaker 5: It's a Game of Thrones world type of show and 2743 01:58:39,240 --> 01:58:42,200 Speaker 5: it is fantastic. The episodes are about thirty minutes long, 2744 01:58:42,640 --> 01:58:44,800 Speaker 5: so it's not like a very heavy lift to watch it, 2745 01:58:45,280 --> 01:58:46,600 Speaker 5: and I enjoy it. I think it's one of the 2746 01:58:46,640 --> 01:58:48,400 Speaker 5: best shows on TV. I'm not the best show on 2747 01:58:48,480 --> 01:58:52,200 Speaker 5: TV currently, so I am all in on that show 2748 01:58:52,280 --> 01:58:54,640 Speaker 5: and also bring back thirty minute shows. 2749 01:58:55,040 --> 01:58:55,440 Speaker 7: Mm hmm. 2750 01:58:55,560 --> 01:58:56,800 Speaker 5: Every show does not have to be an hour. I 2751 01:58:56,920 --> 01:58:59,000 Speaker 5: love thirty minute shows. Get a little fixed and then 2752 01:58:59,120 --> 01:58:59,520 Speaker 5: off to bed. 2753 01:58:59,600 --> 01:59:01,440 Speaker 4: I'm not going lie. That's more intriguing to watch it 2754 01:59:01,440 --> 01:59:03,360 Speaker 4: because I kind of got sick of House of the 2755 01:59:03,440 --> 01:59:05,440 Speaker 4: Dragon because I'm like, good lord, every episode is an 2756 01:59:05,480 --> 01:59:07,240 Speaker 4: hour long and it's just a lot. It's a hard 2757 01:59:07,320 --> 01:59:09,440 Speaker 4: watch and everything. But I've heard good things about that. 2758 01:59:09,520 --> 01:59:10,920 Speaker 4: In the fact it's thirty minutes. I'm gonna have to 2759 01:59:11,000 --> 01:59:11,240 Speaker 4: tune in. 2760 01:59:11,280 --> 01:59:11,600 Speaker 7: There you go. 2761 01:59:12,320 --> 01:59:13,880 Speaker 2: I'm all in on the last few days of the 2762 01:59:13,920 --> 01:59:15,480 Speaker 2: Olympics to start with, but I don't know if you 2763 01:59:15,560 --> 01:59:17,200 Speaker 2: guys have watched it or see much about it. 2764 01:59:17,760 --> 01:59:21,040 Speaker 3: I keep my my head keeps getting tugged to Industry. 2765 01:59:21,280 --> 01:59:22,760 Speaker 1: Do I want to go watch Industry? 2766 01:59:23,000 --> 01:59:24,520 Speaker 4: I think James said he did not like that. 2767 01:59:24,600 --> 01:59:27,440 Speaker 5: I finished the first season. I have not pressed start 2768 01:59:27,560 --> 01:59:28,240 Speaker 5: on season two. 2769 01:59:28,600 --> 01:59:31,280 Speaker 3: Somemi, okay, doing something else I mean. 2770 01:59:31,440 --> 01:59:32,840 Speaker 5: I'm never going to tell anybody not to watch it. 2771 01:59:33,000 --> 01:59:34,440 Speaker 5: Check it out, see if you like it for yourself. 2772 01:59:34,480 --> 01:59:37,480 Speaker 5: But it's a wild show. And I would say, Jeff, 2773 01:59:37,480 --> 01:59:40,280 Speaker 5: if you do watch it, I mean, I get your 2774 01:59:40,360 --> 01:59:42,840 Speaker 5: kids are like grown now, but it's still it's a 2775 01:59:42,920 --> 01:59:44,800 Speaker 5: crazy show. I probably would never watch it with anybody 2776 01:59:44,840 --> 01:59:46,040 Speaker 5: else because, yeah, I. 2777 01:59:46,080 --> 01:59:47,560 Speaker 3: Got to talk my kids into watching TV. 2778 01:59:47,600 --> 01:59:49,560 Speaker 1: They don't watch These kids don't watch TV anymore. They 2779 01:59:49,560 --> 01:59:51,520 Speaker 1: watch their phones and whatever they want to do there. Yeah, 2780 01:59:51,520 --> 01:59:53,680 Speaker 1: everyone's on the leg the laptop, bipad or phone. 2781 01:59:54,200 --> 01:59:57,000 Speaker 4: Ashley and I watched roof Man over the weekend. It's 2782 01:59:57,040 --> 02:00:00,960 Speaker 4: on Paramount Plus. It's a movie with Channing Tatum Kirsten 2783 02:00:01,040 --> 02:00:04,920 Speaker 4: dunst Oh. It was actually pretty good. It's a true 2784 02:00:05,000 --> 02:00:09,680 Speaker 4: story about a robber who hides out in a toys 2785 02:00:09,760 --> 02:00:12,120 Speaker 4: r us for a long length of time as he 2786 02:00:12,200 --> 02:00:15,640 Speaker 4: evades police after breaking out of prison. It was really enjoyable. 2787 02:00:15,680 --> 02:00:18,760 Speaker 4: It's like just under two hours, a solid easy watch 2788 02:00:19,040 --> 02:00:19,520 Speaker 4: roof Man. 2789 02:00:20,480 --> 02:00:22,560 Speaker 2: You know what, I found myself just kind of binge watching, 2790 02:00:22,640 --> 02:00:24,000 Speaker 2: and while I was in the background, I was doing 2791 02:00:24,040 --> 02:00:26,440 Speaker 2: some other stuff this past weekend. Maybe it was because 2792 02:00:26,520 --> 02:00:29,440 Speaker 2: Catherine O'Hara had passed away, But Shit's Creek still. 2793 02:00:29,280 --> 02:00:30,240 Speaker 1: A funny, funny show. 2794 02:00:30,280 --> 02:00:31,040 Speaker 4: Say you that on air? 2795 02:00:31,440 --> 02:00:33,480 Speaker 3: I just did. It's the name of the show, it's 2796 02:00:33,480 --> 02:00:34,680 Speaker 3: the name of a person. 2797 02:00:35,080 --> 02:00:35,720 Speaker 7: S C H. 2798 02:00:35,920 --> 02:00:36,400 Speaker 11: I T. T. 2799 02:00:37,280 --> 02:00:39,560 Speaker 4: Okay, I'm not dumping it. 2800 02:00:42,880 --> 02:00:43,280 Speaker 3: All right. 2801 02:00:43,920 --> 02:00:46,880 Speaker 2: Final updates, closing comments, closing arguments coming your way next 2802 02:00:46,960 --> 02:00:48,280 Speaker 2: ninety three five one seven. 2803 02:00:48,360 --> 02:00:48,760 Speaker 1: The Fan. 2804 02:00:54,600 --> 02:00:57,800 Speaker 12: Wing Show on Sports Radio ninety three five and one 2805 02:00:58,120 --> 02:00:59,400 Speaker 12: seven The Fan. 2806 02:01:01,000 --> 02:01:04,000 Speaker 2: Mark You ever created any Spotify playlists from songs you 2807 02:01:04,120 --> 02:01:06,040 Speaker 2: played during the shows for people I. 2808 02:01:06,080 --> 02:01:09,120 Speaker 3: Know you post this and I probably should would be 2809 02:01:09,240 --> 02:01:10,960 Speaker 3: kind of fun. I'm not subscribed to those. 2810 02:01:11,280 --> 02:01:14,480 Speaker 4: So we do have an update again, this time from 2811 02:01:14,520 --> 02:01:16,600 Speaker 4: the Illinois side of things when it comes to the 2812 02:01:16,640 --> 02:01:20,720 Speaker 4: Bears situation. Brendan Moore, who is a Capitol Hill I 2813 02:01:20,760 --> 02:01:25,280 Speaker 4: guess an Illinois reporter and everything like that, says was 2814 02:01:25,320 --> 02:01:27,760 Speaker 4: told this morning by someone close that quote, all is 2815 02:01:27,920 --> 02:01:32,040 Speaker 4: well in negotiations. Committees get canceled all the time. In Springfield, 2816 02:01:32,320 --> 02:01:35,360 Speaker 4: the final bill language likely would not have been ready regardless, 2817 02:01:35,640 --> 02:01:38,840 Speaker 4: So the Bears fans following quote, don't read this as 2818 02:01:38,880 --> 02:01:42,920 Speaker 4: Illinois efforts derailing. Okay, So lots of different smoke and 2819 02:01:42,960 --> 02:01:47,160 Speaker 4: a lot of different directions. I'm getting whiplash getting bounced 2820 02:01:47,200 --> 02:01:48,080 Speaker 4: around here this morning. 2821 02:01:48,280 --> 02:01:52,120 Speaker 1: What if the Bears brass they're just tired of Illinois. 2822 02:01:52,160 --> 02:01:53,840 Speaker 3: They're like, you know, we're just gonna go do this anyway. 2823 02:01:53,920 --> 02:01:56,400 Speaker 4: They might be because they've been trying at this for years. 2824 02:01:56,400 --> 02:01:58,920 Speaker 4: They're seeing other stadiums get approved and built and the 2825 02:01:59,000 --> 02:02:01,040 Speaker 4: time that they've been screwing around with Illinois. So I 2826 02:02:01,040 --> 02:02:03,200 Speaker 4: think they're kind of like blank or get off the pot. 2827 02:02:03,440 --> 02:02:04,720 Speaker 4: So I think that's where we're at here. 2828 02:02:05,560 --> 02:02:07,560 Speaker 3: We will follow that with great interest. 2829 02:02:07,600 --> 02:02:07,800 Speaker 1: Mark. 2830 02:02:07,800 --> 02:02:10,400 Speaker 2: I know you'll update everybody consistently on that as we go, 2831 02:02:10,480 --> 02:02:14,040 Speaker 2: along with some thoughts checking the fan text line this 2832 02:02:14,120 --> 02:02:15,880 Speaker 2: morning in two through nine, ten and seventy is a 2833 02:02:15,920 --> 02:02:18,880 Speaker 2: great question from George. With all the Pacers talk and 2834 02:02:18,920 --> 02:02:20,920 Speaker 2: excitement for next season, isn't there still a bit of 2835 02:02:21,040 --> 02:02:24,080 Speaker 2: hesitancy with Halliburton being a year out. That type of 2836 02:02:24,160 --> 02:02:26,920 Speaker 2: injury is generally first year back very slow, and then 2837 02:02:27,000 --> 02:02:29,960 Speaker 2: second year is when you see the athlete in true form. 2838 02:02:30,360 --> 02:02:32,560 Speaker 2: I think it's a fantastic question. I know Kevin you 2839 02:02:32,680 --> 02:02:35,000 Speaker 2: had texted him back as well, but do we have 2840 02:02:35,040 --> 02:02:36,960 Speaker 2: a little bit of an advantage that there's a lot 2841 02:02:37,000 --> 02:02:39,960 Speaker 2: of extra time built in him to come back, that 2842 02:02:40,040 --> 02:02:43,240 Speaker 2: he's not racing because it happened at the end of 2843 02:02:43,320 --> 02:02:46,000 Speaker 2: last year and he's missing all of this year, that 2844 02:02:46,120 --> 02:02:48,360 Speaker 2: there's not this hurry hurry, hurry to get him back, 2845 02:02:48,400 --> 02:02:50,240 Speaker 2: that it's really happening on his own true time. 2846 02:02:50,400 --> 02:02:51,840 Speaker 6: Yeah, I mean, I think got some of the hope 2847 02:02:52,080 --> 02:02:54,160 Speaker 6: is that, you know, what's it going to be fifteen months, 2848 02:02:54,200 --> 02:03:00,440 Speaker 6: sixteen months post surgery. So but still, you know, anytime 2849 02:03:00,520 --> 02:03:03,839 Speaker 6: you're dealing with a high level athlete, you know typically 2850 02:03:03,920 --> 02:03:07,080 Speaker 6: that second year is where you're more optimistic. Now, one 2851 02:03:07,080 --> 02:03:10,000 Speaker 6: thing about Halliburton, you know, it's not like you know, again, 2852 02:03:10,040 --> 02:03:13,760 Speaker 6: he's not Victor Oladipo as a basketball player where he 2853 02:03:13,880 --> 02:03:17,160 Speaker 6: needs to have this just peak elite athleticism in attacking 2854 02:03:17,200 --> 02:03:20,920 Speaker 6: the rim as a fearless, you know, Russell Westbrooks style, 2855 02:03:21,360 --> 02:03:25,920 Speaker 6: explosive athlete. That's not necessarily Halliburton's game. But I think 2856 02:03:25,960 --> 02:03:28,880 Speaker 6: it's worth pointing out too. Everybody in the starting lineup 2857 02:03:28,960 --> 02:03:32,040 Speaker 6: they're under contract through next season and by next season, 2858 02:03:32,080 --> 02:03:36,560 Speaker 6: I mean twenty seven, so like everybody's under contract for 2859 02:03:36,600 --> 02:03:39,280 Speaker 6: at least two more years. So you know, even if 2860 02:03:39,320 --> 02:03:42,800 Speaker 6: whatever Halliburton doesn't look as normal self, you still have 2861 02:03:42,880 --> 02:03:47,240 Speaker 6: everybody on a contract for the following season as well. Yeah, 2862 02:03:47,520 --> 02:03:49,760 Speaker 6: I guess, but I also think it just to add 2863 02:03:49,800 --> 02:03:51,760 Speaker 6: one more. I also think that's why it matters so 2864 02:03:51,880 --> 02:03:56,240 Speaker 6: much to get the top four pick. You know, at 2865 02:03:56,320 --> 02:03:58,920 Speaker 6: some point even if, like you know, I think I've 2866 02:03:58,920 --> 02:04:00,840 Speaker 6: made this analogy before. If you want to play the 2867 02:04:00,920 --> 02:04:04,200 Speaker 6: video game, Let's say Halliburton is a ninety five overall 2868 02:04:05,280 --> 02:04:07,640 Speaker 6: in a video game. What if coming back from the 2869 02:04:07,680 --> 02:04:11,240 Speaker 6: Achilles that becomes eighty eight overall. He's still a really 2870 02:04:11,280 --> 02:04:15,200 Speaker 6: good player, but maybe he's not whatever top ten, top 2871 02:04:15,320 --> 02:04:18,000 Speaker 6: twelve player in the league. Well, that's why you need 2872 02:04:18,080 --> 02:04:23,080 Speaker 6: this sidekick to help the new era, the new window 2873 02:04:23,520 --> 02:04:24,120 Speaker 6: of the Pacers. 2874 02:04:24,160 --> 02:04:26,160 Speaker 1: Pascal Siakam is getting up there in age. 2875 02:04:26,320 --> 02:04:29,280 Speaker 6: You know, that is another element to it as well, 2876 02:04:29,400 --> 02:04:32,480 Speaker 6: that I think it's really important for a young piece 2877 02:04:32,600 --> 02:04:33,800 Speaker 6: to be added. 2878 02:04:34,080 --> 02:04:36,800 Speaker 1: To this era. I'm very curious to know. 2879 02:04:37,320 --> 02:04:39,880 Speaker 5: And we can talk about this later on this week 2880 02:04:39,960 --> 02:04:42,000 Speaker 5: tomorrow and obviously in the weeks to come as we 2881 02:04:42,120 --> 02:04:45,520 Speaker 5: closer to the draft lottery NBA Draft. But you know, 2882 02:04:45,600 --> 02:04:47,520 Speaker 5: it comes to the mental makeup of the player you 2883 02:04:47,720 --> 02:04:50,600 Speaker 5: hope to land in that top four pick. Boy, you 2884 02:04:50,680 --> 02:04:52,800 Speaker 5: gotta be ready to play some meaningful basketball, and I 2885 02:04:52,880 --> 02:04:54,680 Speaker 5: think a lot of rookies don't really step into those 2886 02:04:54,680 --> 02:04:57,320 Speaker 5: situations quite frankly. I mean, you usually if you're a 2887 02:04:57,400 --> 02:05:00,880 Speaker 5: top four pick, you're joining the team the man, and 2888 02:05:01,040 --> 02:05:03,360 Speaker 5: you're allowed to make mistakes and develop and kind of 2889 02:05:03,400 --> 02:05:05,600 Speaker 5: be bad for a while. But if you join the 2890 02:05:05,640 --> 02:05:09,440 Speaker 5: Pacers as a top four pick, the expectation is for 2891 02:05:09,520 --> 02:05:11,120 Speaker 5: you to be part of a team that goes on 2892 02:05:11,200 --> 02:05:13,720 Speaker 5: a deep playoff run. So that is something that you know, 2893 02:05:13,760 --> 02:05:15,800 Speaker 5: I think will be interesting to see if it comes 2894 02:05:15,840 --> 02:05:17,440 Speaker 5: to that. With the top four pick. 2895 02:05:17,520 --> 02:05:19,720 Speaker 6: Now, we'll say all four of these guys are playing 2896 02:05:19,760 --> 02:05:23,280 Speaker 6: college basketball at a pretty darn high level in major conferences, 2897 02:05:23,360 --> 02:05:25,600 Speaker 6: which is not always the case with our top four picks. 2898 02:05:25,720 --> 02:05:28,160 Speaker 6: Like you know, a some of them are international, so 2899 02:05:28,240 --> 02:05:30,800 Speaker 6: it's kind of okay, how do you project the competition? 2900 02:05:31,240 --> 02:05:33,360 Speaker 6: And then b you know, even in college game, we 2901 02:05:33,440 --> 02:05:35,920 Speaker 6: see guys drafted high you know that maybe are not 2902 02:05:36,040 --> 02:05:39,040 Speaker 6: averaging a whatever huge amount of points, are not playing 2903 02:05:39,040 --> 02:05:39,880 Speaker 6: at the highest level. 2904 02:05:40,160 --> 02:05:42,000 Speaker 2: I think the thing that encourages me for next year 2905 02:05:42,040 --> 02:05:44,520 Speaker 2: is really the second half of the season because you 2906 02:05:44,680 --> 02:05:48,080 Speaker 2: get your your rookie that's played forty to fifty games 2907 02:05:48,120 --> 02:05:50,640 Speaker 2: at that point in time, Tygreese, Haliburton has now had 2908 02:05:50,760 --> 02:05:53,120 Speaker 2: time to work himself back in there. That's when I 2909 02:05:53,160 --> 02:05:55,960 Speaker 2: would get really excited as we start to look at 2910 02:05:56,000 --> 02:05:57,640 Speaker 2: it the next year. All right, that's going to wrap 2911 02:05:57,680 --> 02:05:59,000 Speaker 2: it up for us today. Great job. I had a 2912 02:05:59,000 --> 02:06:01,800 Speaker 2: lot of fun this morning. Uh listen for Jake Query 2913 02:06:01,880 --> 02:06:04,480 Speaker 2: coming away from noon to three JMV as always at 2914 02:06:04,640 --> 02:06:06,640 Speaker 2: three Pacers tonight at six thirty
