1
00:00:00,320 --> 00:00:03,720
Speaker 1: Know your ears do not deceive you. Though it is

2
00:00:03,800 --> 00:00:06,640
Speaker 1: Sunday morning, I am very very pleased to let you

3
00:00:06,720 --> 00:00:16,439
Speaker 1: know that you are indeed in the zone. What's it

4
00:00:16,480 --> 00:00:19,759
Speaker 1: called it? Maybe a Sunday Sermons edition of in the

5
00:00:19,840 --> 00:00:23,239
Speaker 1: Zone on a Sunday, Double Tea. Missed yesterday, Double t

6
00:00:23,440 --> 00:00:25,840
Speaker 1: able to join the head cheese today. Happy to have

7
00:00:25,880 --> 00:00:27,960
Speaker 1: you with you, Happy to have you with us on

8
00:00:28,000 --> 00:00:36,760
Speaker 1: a Sunday. I am Dave Sinnecon and for Bump today,

9
00:00:36,880 --> 00:00:40,000
Speaker 1: joined by my partner Lo these many years. In fact,

10
00:00:40,080 --> 00:00:42,479
Speaker 1: we started in the Zone on Sundays way back in

11
00:00:42,520 --> 00:00:46,080
Speaker 1: the mid nineties. Double Tea, Trent Tucker in the house.

12
00:00:46,120 --> 00:00:49,240
Speaker 1: Good morning partner, Good morning Davy. At nineteen ninety five,

13
00:00:49,360 --> 00:00:51,880
Speaker 1: that's uh. We were Sundays. I think it was nine

14
00:00:51,920 --> 00:00:54,040
Speaker 1: to noon back then. I think we did three hours.

15
00:00:54,920 --> 00:00:57,720
Speaker 1: It was we started the day that Kevin Garnet came

16
00:00:58,080 --> 00:01:01,000
Speaker 1: became that we it was Memorial weekends, so it was

17
00:01:01,040 --> 00:01:02,880
Speaker 1: a couple of weeks before the draft. That was our

18
00:01:02,920 --> 00:01:06,160
Speaker 1: first real talker was the Wolves NBA Draft in nineteen

19
00:01:06,240 --> 00:01:11,039
Speaker 1: ninety five. Sundays were our beginning and now here we

20
00:01:11,080 --> 00:01:13,720
Speaker 1: are on a Sunday morning. You were out yesterday because

21
00:01:13,720 --> 00:01:16,760
Speaker 1: you had hockey dad duties and you were sort of

22
00:01:16,800 --> 00:01:18,840
Speaker 1: hit or missed whether the tournament or the schedule would

23
00:01:18,840 --> 00:01:21,399
Speaker 1: allow you to come in this morning. True, but sounds

24
00:01:21,440 --> 00:01:27,320
Speaker 1: like a stirring pulse beating victory by Shadow last night

25
00:01:27,480 --> 00:01:29,880
Speaker 1: allowed you to uh to join us this morning, which

26
00:01:29,880 --> 00:01:32,280
Speaker 1: is nice. Yeah, it was. It was.

27
00:01:32,360 --> 00:01:36,319
Speaker 2: It was a lot of heart heart palty last night

28
00:01:36,520 --> 00:01:38,240
Speaker 2: as the game went down to the end.

29
00:01:38,280 --> 00:01:40,399
Speaker 1: Six on three. Is that what you said it was?

30
00:01:40,480 --> 00:01:40,640
Speaker 3: Yeah?

31
00:01:40,959 --> 00:01:44,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, a couple of kids got some ill evised penalties

32
00:01:44,720 --> 00:01:47,760
Speaker 2: at the wrong time to allow your skippers, you know,

33
00:01:47,880 --> 00:01:50,120
Speaker 2: at the Banamwa level, to have a chance to almost

34
00:01:50,120 --> 00:01:52,240
Speaker 2: come back and steal the game. But you guys hung on.

35
00:01:52,560 --> 00:01:55,040
Speaker 2: I'm going six to five. So now they'll play little

36
00:01:55,120 --> 00:01:58,320
Speaker 2: Seasons out of Detroit. Today Little Caesars the championship and

37
00:01:58,360 --> 00:01:58,960
Speaker 2: that's a new game.

38
00:01:59,040 --> 00:02:00,240
Speaker 1: So here with us for at least an hour and

39
00:02:00,280 --> 00:02:02,200
Speaker 1: a half today, correct, got you till about ten thirty,

40
00:02:02,240 --> 00:02:05,240
Speaker 1: and then I'll have Lavelle Neil joined to Chalk Olympics

41
00:02:05,280 --> 00:02:08,760
Speaker 1: in our final segment, so it'll be a in the zone,

42
00:02:08,760 --> 00:02:11,600
Speaker 1: which we we missed yesterday. You don't realize that you

43
00:02:11,639 --> 00:02:14,480
Speaker 1: see Blake Moore across the glass. He had to tap

44
00:02:14,520 --> 00:02:18,680
Speaker 1: out after the first segment yesterday dealing with some maladies.

45
00:02:18,960 --> 00:02:21,760
Speaker 1: Glad to hear you got medicated and worked out and

46
00:02:21,760 --> 00:02:23,480
Speaker 1: you're able to join us, though you're clearly not.

47
00:02:24,080 --> 00:02:27,400
Speaker 4: At that sucks. Yeah, it's not fun. I don't want to,

48
00:02:28,440 --> 00:02:30,600
Speaker 4: you know, go into gory details because I wants to

49
00:02:30,600 --> 00:02:35,880
Speaker 4: hear that. But yesterday clear liquids only until I feel better,

50
00:02:35,919 --> 00:02:36,640
Speaker 4: I'm told.

51
00:02:36,560 --> 00:02:39,839
Speaker 1: Which sucks. And you're not a guy that I eat

52
00:02:39,840 --> 00:02:43,240
Speaker 1: like Corey Cove. That's tough. Twelve years old. Yeah, so

53
00:02:44,080 --> 00:02:46,320
Speaker 1: the chicken broth not going to cut it. That's not

54
00:02:46,360 --> 00:02:48,720
Speaker 1: going to work. And no noodles allowed in the chicken broth,

55
00:02:48,760 --> 00:02:52,400
Speaker 1: I'm guessing correct, just basic broth. Well, I'm glad at

56
00:02:52,520 --> 00:02:55,440
Speaker 1: least you're on your feet, you're here. I had Chad

57
00:02:55,480 --> 00:02:58,839
Speaker 1: Abbott helping out yesterday, going back to his early Pa

58
00:02:58,880 --> 00:03:01,040
Speaker 1: and Debay days a board op and that was kind

59
00:03:01,040 --> 00:03:03,480
Speaker 1: of fun, old school style. But it's very nice to

60
00:03:03,520 --> 00:03:06,440
Speaker 1: have the boys back here on a Sunday morning to

61
00:03:06,919 --> 00:03:09,639
Speaker 1: hang out. So glad to have you with us as

62
00:03:09,639 --> 00:03:11,760
Speaker 1: we will dive into a lot of NBA stuff, a

63
00:03:11,760 --> 00:03:16,519
Speaker 1: little football, some Olympics stuff. You know. I was missing

64
00:03:16,520 --> 00:03:18,800
Speaker 1: you yesterday because it was the you know, last night

65
00:03:18,880 --> 00:03:20,520
Speaker 1: was the All Star Saturday Night, and it was the

66
00:03:20,520 --> 00:03:24,400
Speaker 1: fortieth anniversary of the very first three point Contest, and

67
00:03:24,800 --> 00:03:28,280
Speaker 1: I happened to jump on YouTube on Friday and saw

68
00:03:28,320 --> 00:03:31,079
Speaker 1: like an eight minute compilation of the highlights of the

69
00:03:31,160 --> 00:03:33,840
Speaker 1: very first one. Didn't remember that it was Rick Barry

70
00:03:33,880 --> 00:03:39,120
Speaker 1: and Bill Russell on the call, which was yes, but

71
00:03:39,200 --> 00:03:43,040
Speaker 1: it was difficult to listen to. Were sort of spoiled,

72
00:03:43,040 --> 00:03:45,560
Speaker 1: even though like last night, listening to Reggie Miller kind

73
00:03:45,560 --> 00:03:47,120
Speaker 1: of going over the top kind of gets to you.

74
00:03:47,200 --> 00:03:50,720
Speaker 1: But we've come a long way from how the three

75
00:03:50,720 --> 00:03:54,080
Speaker 1: point Contest was announced way back in the day. I

76
00:03:54,080 --> 00:03:56,520
Speaker 1: didn't recall you were in second place after the first round.

77
00:03:57,160 --> 00:03:59,880
Speaker 1: You got to the semifinals, I think seventeen points. I

78
00:04:00,120 --> 00:04:03,600
Speaker 1: was a little surprised to see that you the timing

79
00:04:03,680 --> 00:04:05,360
Speaker 1: was an ideal. You did not get to your last

80
00:04:05,400 --> 00:04:06,840
Speaker 1: Do you remember this. You didn't get to the last

81
00:04:06,840 --> 00:04:09,000
Speaker 1: two balls on the corner rack. Time ran out on you,

82
00:04:09,400 --> 00:04:11,960
Speaker 1: so you could have actually gone into the twenties. Yeah,

83
00:04:12,000 --> 00:04:14,120
Speaker 1: you left a couple in the rack, but you did

84
00:04:14,160 --> 00:04:17,040
Speaker 1: advance to the final four. Did not advance to the

85
00:04:17,080 --> 00:04:19,920
Speaker 1: final I think it was Burdon Hodges in the final. Yes,

86
00:04:20,520 --> 00:04:25,160
Speaker 1: those two went on to win three three point contest

87
00:04:25,200 --> 00:04:27,680
Speaker 1: in their careers, and they were joined last night by

88
00:04:27,720 --> 00:04:31,480
Speaker 1: the third player to do it. Look, I'm one of

89
00:04:31,560 --> 00:04:33,800
Speaker 1: the very few people that pays any attention to All

90
00:04:33,839 --> 00:04:36,600
Speaker 1: Star Weekend. Still I do enjoy it. It's really the

91
00:04:36,600 --> 00:04:38,920
Speaker 1: only event on Saturday I care about. The Slam Dunk

92
00:04:38,960 --> 00:04:41,560
Speaker 1: Contest is just it's probably the purest event that you have.

93
00:04:41,760 --> 00:04:44,520
Speaker 1: It is, and it's still to me really entertaining. And

94
00:04:44,960 --> 00:04:48,600
Speaker 1: you know, yesterday you had obviously no Steph who's out

95
00:04:48,720 --> 00:04:50,359
Speaker 1: with the injury. I'm not sure he would have played

96
00:04:50,440 --> 00:04:54,080
Speaker 1: had he been healthy. But you've got you know, Devin Booker,

97
00:04:54,160 --> 00:04:57,960
Speaker 1: Donovan Mitchell, Jamal Murray, Tyrese Maxie. We're talking All Stars.

98
00:04:57,960 --> 00:05:00,240
Speaker 1: This is not like the Slam Dunk Contest, where I

99
00:05:00,279 --> 00:05:03,920
Speaker 1: hadn't heard of three of the four guys, basically Bobby Portis,

100
00:05:03,960 --> 00:05:09,320
Speaker 1: Norman Powell, the rookie Khanka Nipple, and late ad Damian Lillard,

101
00:05:10,080 --> 00:05:13,400
Speaker 1: who goes on to win the championship for the third time.

102
00:05:13,880 --> 00:05:15,880
Speaker 1: And that's just a great story because he wasn't even

103
00:05:15,920 --> 00:05:18,560
Speaker 1: initially invited. I don't know who dropped out, but they

104
00:05:18,600 --> 00:05:20,520
Speaker 1: had sort of joked about it, like, yeah, if somebody

105
00:05:20,560 --> 00:05:24,279
Speaker 1: falls through, I'll play obviously, dealing with the Achilles out

106
00:05:24,320 --> 00:05:28,479
Speaker 1: all season. And Dame comes in and wins it. It

107
00:05:28,600 --> 00:05:30,880
Speaker 1: was very dramatic. Did you happen? You probably didn't happen

108
00:05:30,880 --> 00:05:33,679
Speaker 1: to see it in the afternoon. Now, the timing's different

109
00:05:33,680 --> 00:05:35,400
Speaker 1: this year because the Olympics are at night, so like

110
00:05:35,440 --> 00:05:37,520
Speaker 1: even the All Star Game today is at four o'clock

111
00:05:38,400 --> 00:05:41,039
Speaker 1: and that's when the three point contest was and I

112
00:05:41,080 --> 00:05:42,960
Speaker 1: had dv art it, so I watched it last night.

113
00:05:44,520 --> 00:05:47,440
Speaker 1: So Dame puts up twenty nine points and it's up

114
00:05:47,480 --> 00:05:50,160
Speaker 1: to Devin Booker to try to beat him. And that's

115
00:05:50,160 --> 00:05:52,880
Speaker 1: a pretty good number. It's a really good number. Yeah,

116
00:05:53,080 --> 00:05:56,359
Speaker 1: And I think Booker had put up thirty in the

117
00:05:56,400 --> 00:06:00,279
Speaker 1: previous round. His shot is so sweet, it's so effort.

118
00:06:00,720 --> 00:06:03,320
Speaker 2: Yeah, he's a great jump shooting and he's a really

119
00:06:03,360 --> 00:06:04,280
Speaker 2: good one on one basketball.

120
00:06:04,520 --> 00:06:04,800
Speaker 5: He is.

121
00:06:05,040 --> 00:06:07,200
Speaker 1: And then he starts out in the final. He made

122
00:06:07,200 --> 00:06:10,640
Speaker 1: his first nine shots, all the first five on the corner,

123
00:06:10,640 --> 00:06:12,000
Speaker 1: and then he goes to the next hits the next

124
00:06:12,040 --> 00:06:14,760
Speaker 1: four and it looks like he's just gonna blow pass game.

125
00:06:14,800 --> 00:06:16,880
Speaker 1: But then things start to slow down a bit. He

126
00:06:16,920 --> 00:06:19,320
Speaker 1: gets to the final rack, and now they do a

127
00:06:19,320 --> 00:06:20,960
Speaker 1: thing where you can pick one of the five one

128
00:06:20,960 --> 00:06:22,720
Speaker 1: of the racks to be a double rack, so all

129
00:06:22,760 --> 00:06:25,000
Speaker 1: your points are two points if you make them, okay,

130
00:06:25,080 --> 00:06:28,880
Speaker 1: and his final rack was his double rack, and so

131
00:06:28,960 --> 00:06:31,159
Speaker 1: he's down. We didn't have no no, this is a

132
00:06:31,200 --> 00:06:33,280
Speaker 1: new You didn't have the triple either, where they give

133
00:06:33,279 --> 00:06:35,320
Speaker 1: you like a logo couple logo shots for a three

134
00:06:35,360 --> 00:06:38,479
Speaker 1: point shot, like from thirty five feet. That's new as well, okay,

135
00:06:38,760 --> 00:06:42,279
Speaker 1: But in this one, he just needed to make I

136
00:06:42,279 --> 00:06:45,240
Speaker 1: think two of his last five to win. He makes one,

137
00:06:45,839 --> 00:06:47,719
Speaker 1: but now he's got three balls left and he's down

138
00:06:47,720 --> 00:06:49,320
Speaker 1: two points, so he needs one of the three to

139
00:06:49,360 --> 00:06:52,520
Speaker 1: go into ty Lillard and two of them to win,

140
00:06:52,839 --> 00:06:55,320
Speaker 1: and he missed all three of his last three shots.

141
00:06:56,200 --> 00:06:58,320
Speaker 1: So it was actually pretty dramatic and fun, and the

142
00:06:58,800 --> 00:06:59,920
Speaker 1: place went nuts for day.

143
00:07:01,560 --> 00:07:06,359
Speaker 2: I can say it's probably the pewest event of Austar weekend.

144
00:07:07,080 --> 00:07:09,520
Speaker 1: The three point shooting context. I don't think you can't

145
00:07:09,600 --> 00:07:11,480
Speaker 1: argue with it, right, I mean, you got the shooting

146
00:07:11,720 --> 00:07:14,679
Speaker 1: Stars thing, which is just goofy, and obviously the slam

147
00:07:14,760 --> 00:07:17,760
Speaker 1: dug is not. It's such a This is the twenty

148
00:07:17,800 --> 00:07:20,240
Speaker 1: year anniversary of maybe the greatest one ever. Remember the

149
00:07:20,320 --> 00:07:23,080
Speaker 1: Zach lavine Aaron Gordon. I mean you can't top that

150
00:07:23,280 --> 00:07:26,560
Speaker 1: for the kids, or Dominique Wooks and Michael Jordan if

151
00:07:26,560 --> 00:07:28,480
Speaker 1: you want to go way back, yes, but I think

152
00:07:28,560 --> 00:07:32,360
Speaker 1: even from an athletic standpoint, what what Zach and Aaron

153
00:07:32,400 --> 00:07:35,600
Speaker 1: Gordon did? I don't think he's ever been touched. Remember,

154
00:07:35,960 --> 00:07:38,480
Speaker 1: I think Gordon had this jumped over the car he did,

155
00:07:38,600 --> 00:07:42,800
Speaker 1: and which is pretty good. Gordon did the one where

156
00:07:42,800 --> 00:07:45,680
Speaker 1: the mascot was spinning, remember on that little things kind

157
00:07:45,680 --> 00:07:47,360
Speaker 1: of spinning, so he had to time it to catch

158
00:07:47,400 --> 00:07:49,680
Speaker 1: the ball and then go over him. I just that

159
00:07:49,720 --> 00:07:52,360
Speaker 1: one just resonates in my head. But for the kids

160
00:07:52,400 --> 00:07:54,680
Speaker 1: that maybe are still into this sort of thing, and

161
00:07:54,720 --> 00:07:57,600
Speaker 1: you watch last night going all right, who is Carter

162
00:07:57,760 --> 00:08:00,000
Speaker 1: Bryant and who is Kisha Johnson and why are they

163
00:08:00,080 --> 00:08:02,680
Speaker 1: the finals of the Slam Dunk Contest. Back in the day,

164
00:08:03,840 --> 00:08:05,920
Speaker 1: the star shined and it was really a fun event

165
00:08:06,000 --> 00:08:08,240
Speaker 1: and now it's just become kind of a shell of

166
00:08:08,240 --> 00:08:11,080
Speaker 1: what it was. I think one of all time great dunkers.

167
00:08:12,360 --> 00:08:16,880
Speaker 2: To me, he may have especially in game type situations.

168
00:08:17,640 --> 00:08:20,240
Speaker 1: Was Vince Carter no, no question. Yeah, if you're gonna

169
00:08:20,280 --> 00:08:24,280
Speaker 1: go top five slam Dunk contest participants, ever, he's out

170
00:08:24,320 --> 00:08:26,240
Speaker 1: the list, he might be top two.

171
00:08:26,360 --> 00:08:29,840
Speaker 2: And when you talk about in game type situations, I'm

172
00:08:29,840 --> 00:08:34,560
Speaker 2: talking about in live action NBA games. You know, Vince

173
00:08:34,600 --> 00:08:37,200
Speaker 2: Carter was as good as anybody. I mean, you know,

174
00:08:37,240 --> 00:08:40,000
Speaker 2: and sometimes you go back and you watch some you know,

175
00:08:40,080 --> 00:08:42,880
Speaker 2: some of the old film of Vince Carter when I

176
00:08:42,920 --> 00:08:44,720
Speaker 2: mean he dunked on the lawns from one and once,

177
00:08:44,800 --> 00:08:46,920
Speaker 2: I was like, my goodness.

178
00:08:47,559 --> 00:08:50,000
Speaker 1: There's a reason they called him Vince Sanity because we

179
00:08:50,080 --> 00:08:53,120
Speaker 1: hadn't seen anybody with those kind of hops. Yeah, yeah,

180
00:08:53,160 --> 00:08:55,679
Speaker 1: there's no doubt. I mean he was. I mean he was.

181
00:08:55,720 --> 00:08:58,679
Speaker 1: He was different. And you know, Tracey mcgrave is pretty

182
00:08:58,679 --> 00:08:59,240
Speaker 1: good too, now.

183
00:09:00,120 --> 00:09:03,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I mean there was some you know, this

184
00:09:03,240 --> 00:09:07,840
Speaker 2: this league has produced a lot of a lot of

185
00:09:08,040 --> 00:09:13,280
Speaker 2: talented players. You know that many people don't talk about today.

186
00:09:13,920 --> 00:09:17,520
Speaker 2: Tracy McGrady has six eighty six y nine. I mean,

187
00:09:17,559 --> 00:09:20,840
Speaker 2: he had handles, he could shoot, he could drive, he

188
00:09:20,880 --> 00:09:25,079
Speaker 2: could finish, he could defend. I mean, Tracy McGrady was

189
00:09:25,080 --> 00:09:27,959
Speaker 2: was as good as a lot of players who have

190
00:09:28,040 --> 00:09:31,520
Speaker 2: come through this league and today, you know, we don't

191
00:09:31,520 --> 00:09:33,480
Speaker 2: really talk about Tracy mcgree, right.

192
00:09:33,400 --> 00:09:35,079
Speaker 1: And it was such a phenom when he came in,

193
00:09:35,240 --> 00:09:37,280
Speaker 1: like he was talked up like this is the next

194
00:09:37,320 --> 00:09:39,360
Speaker 1: big thing. And he still was fantastic. Yeah, I mean

195
00:09:39,400 --> 00:09:42,480
Speaker 1: a great career, but he had injuries and they never

196
00:09:42,600 --> 00:09:46,240
Speaker 1: quite you know, got to that level of like all time,

197
00:09:46,240 --> 00:09:47,400
Speaker 1: but yeah, he was And I.

198
00:09:47,360 --> 00:09:50,240
Speaker 2: Think the one guy that where the one guy that

199
00:09:50,360 --> 00:09:53,200
Speaker 2: we would be talking about in that I think in

200
00:09:53,240 --> 00:09:57,080
Speaker 2: that atmosphere if he hadn't got hurt, would be Grant Hill.

201
00:09:57,240 --> 00:09:59,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, he had the hops too, Grant Hill.

202
00:09:59,559 --> 00:10:03,400
Speaker 2: I mean I saw Grant Hill break down Scottie Pippen

203
00:10:03,440 --> 00:10:07,640
Speaker 2: one day and I was like, now that that that Now,

204
00:10:07,679 --> 00:10:09,439
Speaker 2: I said, now I don't you don't see that often.

205
00:10:10,080 --> 00:10:14,800
Speaker 2: And Grant Hill had not gotten hurt and he made

206
00:10:14,840 --> 00:10:16,120
Speaker 2: the Hall of Fame because he had the Hall of

207
00:10:16,160 --> 00:10:18,959
Speaker 2: Fame type talent. He would be in that conversation as

208
00:10:19,000 --> 00:10:22,200
Speaker 2: one of the all time greats. Grant Hill was. Gret

209
00:10:22,240 --> 00:10:24,520
Speaker 2: Hill was that good? He was that good.

210
00:10:24,679 --> 00:10:26,800
Speaker 1: Serious slam dunk question for you in your ten or

211
00:10:26,840 --> 00:10:29,320
Speaker 1: eleven years in the NBA, did you dunk if I

212
00:10:29,440 --> 00:10:31,960
Speaker 1: counted Trent Tucker's career dunks. Would I go beyond my

213
00:10:32,000 --> 00:10:34,920
Speaker 1: two hands? Do you think counting? Probably so, I don't know,

214
00:10:35,600 --> 00:10:38,160
Speaker 1: it'd be close, right, it'd be close. That wasn't your game.

215
00:10:38,360 --> 00:10:41,119
Speaker 1: But I mean there's transition, there's you know, fast breaks.

216
00:10:41,400 --> 00:10:42,920
Speaker 1: But I will you strike me as a guy that

217
00:10:42,960 --> 00:10:44,640
Speaker 1: if you've got an open court, you have just laid

218
00:10:44,640 --> 00:10:45,840
Speaker 1: it in, you're not going to show boat.

219
00:10:45,960 --> 00:10:48,680
Speaker 2: Well, we didn't. We didn't, you know at that time

220
00:10:48,720 --> 00:10:51,839
Speaker 2: in the game. You know, we we didn't fast break

221
00:10:51,880 --> 00:10:53,960
Speaker 2: as much. You know, we're more of a half a

222
00:10:54,000 --> 00:10:57,240
Speaker 2: half court team. But it wasn't you know, my game

223
00:10:58,360 --> 00:11:01,319
Speaker 2: was built for the day game today.

224
00:11:02,600 --> 00:11:03,720
Speaker 1: You know, That's what I know.

225
00:11:03,800 --> 00:11:06,840
Speaker 2: I some guys tell me that you were twenty five

226
00:11:06,920 --> 00:11:09,680
Speaker 2: or thirty or forty years ahead of your time, because

227
00:11:09,720 --> 00:11:14,000
Speaker 2: then back when I was in high school, back in

228
00:11:13,280 --> 00:11:16,880
Speaker 2: the early seventies, not early so, but the mid late seventies,

229
00:11:17,360 --> 00:11:20,080
Speaker 2: the shots that kids are taking to day, with the

230
00:11:20,120 --> 00:11:23,040
Speaker 2: shots I was taken back then, Yeah, I was already

231
00:11:23,040 --> 00:11:26,240
Speaker 2: shooting you know, twenty five and thirty footerish.

232
00:11:26,360 --> 00:11:28,000
Speaker 1: They just weren't worth three points.

233
00:11:27,720 --> 00:11:33,040
Speaker 2: Back then, right, And so my game adjusted to whatever

234
00:11:33,240 --> 00:11:34,160
Speaker 2: the system was.

235
00:11:34,280 --> 00:11:35,560
Speaker 1: It's because I could shoot.

236
00:11:36,800 --> 00:11:39,679
Speaker 2: And when I got to college, you know, I can

237
00:11:39,720 --> 00:11:42,480
Speaker 2: remember some of the fans used to used to yell

238
00:11:42,600 --> 00:11:45,440
Speaker 2: and scream when I was a freshman. You can't be

239
00:11:45,480 --> 00:11:48,200
Speaker 2: taking that shot from out there, you know, because I

240
00:11:48,240 --> 00:11:50,800
Speaker 2: used to see it there because at that stage, nobody

241
00:11:50,800 --> 00:11:55,679
Speaker 2: took twenty five for jump shots. And but in today's game,

242
00:11:56,480 --> 00:11:59,520
Speaker 2: my game would would have translated very easily to how

243
00:11:59,559 --> 00:12:00,640
Speaker 2: they play back all today.

244
00:12:00,720 --> 00:12:02,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, no doubt. Yeah.

245
00:12:02,120 --> 00:12:04,360
Speaker 2: And I can play in the old school basketball too,

246
00:12:04,440 --> 00:12:08,080
Speaker 2: because when you can, when you're used to playing with

247
00:12:08,200 --> 00:12:11,079
Speaker 2: post up guys, you know how to feed the posts.

248
00:12:11,320 --> 00:12:13,080
Speaker 2: So I knew how to play with Kevin McHale and

249
00:12:13,160 --> 00:12:16,440
Speaker 2: Randy Brewer and Bill cott Wright, and you got to

250
00:12:16,480 --> 00:12:18,640
Speaker 2: post up for like Trug Robertson. You know how to

251
00:12:18,679 --> 00:12:20,000
Speaker 2: play two man basketball.

252
00:12:20,160 --> 00:12:22,760
Speaker 1: Patrick might have figured out. Patrick Ewme was also in there.

253
00:12:23,600 --> 00:12:27,360
Speaker 2: And and then when Rick Patino came along, you know,

254
00:12:27,520 --> 00:12:30,520
Speaker 2: his idea was to play a modern day game that

255
00:12:30,559 --> 00:12:33,959
Speaker 2: they're playing now. And when he decided he was going

256
00:12:34,000 --> 00:12:37,480
Speaker 2: to reshape his roster, of all the guys who was

257
00:12:37,520 --> 00:12:40,720
Speaker 2: there before he came, the only guy he kept was me.

258
00:12:42,080 --> 00:12:46,640
Speaker 2: Is because my game translated to a fast breaking wide

259
00:12:46,760 --> 00:12:48,640
Speaker 2: open pressing and trapping.

260
00:12:48,320 --> 00:12:50,160
Speaker 1: In three point shooting team.

261
00:12:50,400 --> 00:12:54,160
Speaker 2: So you know, when you look at I talked to

262
00:12:54,240 --> 00:12:56,880
Speaker 2: kids today about the games that you know, how do

263
00:12:56,920 --> 00:12:58,800
Speaker 2: you diversify yourself.

264
00:12:58,400 --> 00:13:01,880
Speaker 1: As a player so that you can fit into any style?

265
00:13:02,480 --> 00:13:04,640
Speaker 1: But you never know what coach is going to be

266
00:13:04,640 --> 00:13:07,720
Speaker 1: plopped in front of you. You don't get to choose

267
00:13:08,000 --> 00:13:08,800
Speaker 1: your head coach.

268
00:13:09,960 --> 00:13:14,120
Speaker 2: And when you don't have that choice, you have to

269
00:13:14,160 --> 00:13:17,200
Speaker 2: be able to diversify enough as a player to fit

270
00:13:17,280 --> 00:13:19,400
Speaker 2: into what they're doing to stay on the team.

271
00:13:19,600 --> 00:13:21,640
Speaker 1: You know, you say your game from the eighties would

272
00:13:21,640 --> 00:13:24,200
Speaker 1: fit into today's game. It's probably never occurred to you,

273
00:13:24,240 --> 00:13:26,040
Speaker 1: but you probably would have earned a few more dollars

274
00:13:26,080 --> 00:13:28,199
Speaker 1: if you were playing today rather than the eighties. That's

275
00:13:28,240 --> 00:13:30,559
Speaker 1: probably never crossed your mind before, but it's probably.

276
00:13:30,360 --> 00:13:34,280
Speaker 2: I mean yeah, I mean, you know, because shooters today

277
00:13:34,480 --> 00:13:39,200
Speaker 2: are a major part of the game. They are premium

278
00:13:39,280 --> 00:13:42,160
Speaker 2: and everybody's looking for a guy that can shoot the basketball.

279
00:13:42,280 --> 00:13:46,560
Speaker 2: So you know it would have been because you could

280
00:13:46,559 --> 00:13:50,800
Speaker 2: take I mean, Steph Curry had take fifteen, sixteen, seventeen

281
00:13:50,880 --> 00:13:52,160
Speaker 2: three point shots in the game.

282
00:13:52,520 --> 00:13:54,000
Speaker 1: It may have taken me four months.

283
00:13:53,760 --> 00:13:57,840
Speaker 2: To do that, right right back then, probably four years. Yeah,

284
00:13:57,880 --> 00:14:00,719
Speaker 2: you know, because Hube Brown would tell you, hey, you

285
00:14:00,720 --> 00:14:03,600
Speaker 2: know what, Hey, you got one more time, take that shot.

286
00:14:05,800 --> 00:14:07,959
Speaker 2: And if you take that shot there again he said,

287
00:14:08,240 --> 00:14:10,720
Speaker 2: not only that, you're not going to play in this game,

288
00:14:11,120 --> 00:14:12,760
Speaker 2: you're not going to play for the next week.

289
00:14:13,480 --> 00:14:13,840
Speaker 1: Yeah.

290
00:14:13,880 --> 00:14:16,120
Speaker 2: So in the mindset and how we played in the

291
00:14:16,120 --> 00:14:19,200
Speaker 2: structure of the game is totally different. But a guy

292
00:14:19,240 --> 00:14:21,680
Speaker 2: like myself and Darryl Mitchell when we were in college,

293
00:14:21,800 --> 00:14:24,880
Speaker 2: you know this this game would fitted out style perfect.

294
00:14:24,920 --> 00:14:27,480
Speaker 1: Yeah, no doubt. Gopher fans were spoiled to watch that club.

295
00:14:28,480 --> 00:14:30,600
Speaker 1: The other back to the three point contest. The other

296
00:14:30,600 --> 00:14:33,080
Speaker 1: guy who made the finals last night was rookie Kank Nipple,

297
00:14:33,120 --> 00:14:35,960
Speaker 1: who had the highest score in the first round. That

298
00:14:36,080 --> 00:14:38,400
Speaker 1: kid's going to be a special player and then fun

299
00:14:38,440 --> 00:14:40,520
Speaker 1: to watch. He and his teammate Cooper Flag from Duke

300
00:14:40,560 --> 00:14:43,440
Speaker 1: are going to be the top two rookies. I think

301
00:14:43,440 --> 00:14:46,400
Speaker 1: in the voting this year. Nipple really stood tall last

302
00:14:46,480 --> 00:14:49,240
Speaker 1: night in a crowded field of really talented shooters, he

303
00:14:49,280 --> 00:14:50,680
Speaker 1: stood out. Which he's a good shooter.

304
00:14:50,720 --> 00:14:53,120
Speaker 2: I mean, like I said that the style of play

305
00:14:53,280 --> 00:14:55,840
Speaker 2: is perfect for guys who can shoot the ball. Today,

306
00:14:56,920 --> 00:14:59,840
Speaker 2: you know they understand where this shots are coming from,

307
00:15:00,320 --> 00:15:03,040
Speaker 2: to get themselves in a good position to shoot the ball,

308
00:15:03,080 --> 00:15:06,440
Speaker 2: but also the team. The team structure is designed for

309
00:15:06,520 --> 00:15:10,760
Speaker 2: them to do what they do best. And the perfect

310
00:15:10,760 --> 00:15:13,200
Speaker 2: guy who saved his career and became an All Star

311
00:15:13,360 --> 00:15:18,200
Speaker 2: because he switched he switched coaches was Dale Ellis. He

312
00:15:18,200 --> 00:15:22,680
Speaker 2: played for dig mad in Dallas. Dale Ellis was buried

313
00:15:22,680 --> 00:15:26,000
Speaker 2: on the bench because Dick Marda only wanted to play

314
00:15:26,040 --> 00:15:28,960
Speaker 2: a half court game. He didn't want guys taking long

315
00:15:29,040 --> 00:15:32,080
Speaker 2: range jump shots, coming off screens and down screens and

316
00:15:32,200 --> 00:15:35,960
Speaker 2: taking three point shots and being an outside shooter. Dale

317
00:15:35,960 --> 00:15:39,080
Speaker 2: Ellis would have probably been out of the league in

318
00:15:39,120 --> 00:15:41,840
Speaker 2: two or three months. If he doesn't get traded. He

319
00:15:41,880 --> 00:15:44,440
Speaker 2: goes to Bernie Bickerstaff and Seattle. He plays a long

320
00:15:44,480 --> 00:15:48,360
Speaker 2: time Chambers. Bernie Bickerstaff system is totally different. It fits

321
00:15:48,440 --> 00:15:50,720
Speaker 2: with Dale Ellis Dot's best. He became an All Star

322
00:15:50,760 --> 00:15:51,360
Speaker 2: player after that.

323
00:15:51,880 --> 00:15:53,960
Speaker 1: But how many guys could have had the same story, right,

324
00:15:54,000 --> 00:15:55,840
Speaker 1: Greg Hodges buried on the wrong kind of team.

325
00:15:55,960 --> 00:15:58,680
Speaker 2: Craig Hodges would have been cut in Detroit along with

326
00:15:58,720 --> 00:15:59,880
Speaker 2: a guy named Ricky Pierce.

327
00:16:00,200 --> 00:16:01,560
Speaker 1: They got traded to Milwaukee.

328
00:16:01,600 --> 00:16:04,680
Speaker 2: They played for Don Nelson and how and you know

329
00:16:04,680 --> 00:16:09,160
Speaker 2: how Nelly played wide open game, free flowing. Do what

330
00:16:09,200 --> 00:16:12,200
Speaker 2: you do best, and that says both of those guys careers,

331
00:16:12,280 --> 00:16:15,480
Speaker 2: because you know, if you get the wrong coach, in

332
00:16:15,520 --> 00:16:17,800
Speaker 2: the wrong system and the wrong team, it can affect

333
00:16:17,840 --> 00:16:18,440
Speaker 2: your tremendously.

334
00:16:18,560 --> 00:16:21,000
Speaker 1: Yeah for sure. All right, let's pause here. Lots to

335
00:16:21,000 --> 00:16:23,080
Speaker 1: get to today, including the Gophers who were in action

336
00:16:23,240 --> 00:16:26,160
Speaker 1: last night, Wolves at the All Star breaks, and NBA

337
00:16:26,280 --> 00:16:29,520
Speaker 1: stuff including Chris Paul's retirement. Want to get Trend's thoughts

338
00:16:29,600 --> 00:16:32,840
Speaker 1: on that talks some Olympics stuff too. It's a Sunday

339
00:16:32,880 --> 00:16:35,320
Speaker 1: Sermons edition of In the Zone. I'm a fan and

340
00:16:35,360 --> 00:17:07,960
Speaker 1: we're back after these hom' about nine to twenty three

341
00:17:08,080 --> 00:17:10,640
Speaker 1: on a Sunday morning. It's in the Zone Trent Tucker,

342
00:17:10,760 --> 00:17:14,160
Speaker 1: Dave Sinnecon and Brett blakemore. We are here till eleven

343
00:17:14,200 --> 00:17:17,240
Speaker 1: as usual. Oh oh, what was that? Are we good?

344
00:17:17,880 --> 00:17:21,720
Speaker 1: It might have been we're here till eleven. Oops. Maybe

345
00:17:21,720 --> 00:17:24,880
Speaker 1: turn your your volume down just a little bit. Yeah,

346
00:17:25,440 --> 00:17:27,159
Speaker 1: we're here till eleven. And then I believe we have

347
00:17:27,200 --> 00:17:29,679
Speaker 1: a sixty minute edition of worst case scenario most that

348
00:17:29,840 --> 00:17:33,280
Speaker 1: is correct. That's exciting you and a mad Max will

349
00:17:33,280 --> 00:17:35,800
Speaker 1: be in for an hour before we will hand off

350
00:17:35,800 --> 00:17:39,280
Speaker 1: to college basketball Big ten style on the fan. Indiana

351
00:17:39,320 --> 00:17:43,520
Speaker 1: at Illinois today. I'm the fan. As you can probably guess,

352
00:17:43,840 --> 00:17:46,879
Speaker 1: I have very low hopes and expectations for my Hoosiers today,

353
00:17:47,640 --> 00:17:51,040
Speaker 1: facing an angry, frustrated, a line it team that has

354
00:17:51,040 --> 00:17:53,320
Speaker 1: somehow dropped to in a row. They have looked so

355
00:17:53,480 --> 00:17:57,000
Speaker 1: good all season, almost like Freddie Horberg's team right a

356
00:17:57,040 --> 00:17:59,560
Speaker 1: little bit that that team has really slowed down. Wisconsin

357
00:17:59,560 --> 00:18:02,320
Speaker 1: went in and knocked off Illinois the other night. Your

358
00:18:02,400 --> 00:18:04,359
Speaker 1: your Badgers, by the way, Bread have now beaten three

359
00:18:04,400 --> 00:18:06,920
Speaker 1: top ten teams this season. It's not bad. It's pretty

360
00:18:07,359 --> 00:18:10,320
Speaker 1: pretty impressive. Knocked off Michigan State the other night. So

361
00:18:10,440 --> 00:18:14,439
Speaker 1: Illinois comes in angry and we'll see what what Indiana

362
00:18:14,520 --> 00:18:16,040
Speaker 1: can do. We'll have that on the fan for you.

363
00:18:16,680 --> 00:18:21,240
Speaker 1: I'll be heading to Hilton Coliseum tomorrow for my first

364
00:18:21,280 --> 00:18:24,240
Speaker 1: Iowa State game with son Dylan. We're going to check

365
00:18:24,280 --> 00:18:27,440
Speaker 1: out two top five teams in Iowa and Houston. Iowa

366
00:18:27,440 --> 00:18:29,840
Speaker 1: State and Houston going at it at Hilton. I'm very

367
00:18:29,840 --> 00:18:36,520
Speaker 1: excited to step into that historic fieldhouse Hilton Coliseum tomorrow night.

368
00:18:36,560 --> 00:18:40,280
Speaker 1: So I'll be doing that. Meanwhile, your Gophers have struggled

369
00:18:40,320 --> 00:18:43,199
Speaker 1: a bit since the big win over Michigan State, the

370
00:18:43,760 --> 00:18:47,679
Speaker 1: inexplicable lost to Maryland at home. We could go today.

371
00:18:47,920 --> 00:18:49,920
Speaker 1: I saw that at the end. I I watched the

372
00:18:49,960 --> 00:18:52,280
Speaker 1: close up that game. That's not good. That that's just

373
00:18:52,400 --> 00:18:54,960
Speaker 1: that was not good. Last night they headed out to

374
00:18:55,000 --> 00:18:58,560
Speaker 1: Seattle to play Washington without maybe their best player, Jalen

375
00:18:58,600 --> 00:19:01,440
Speaker 1: Crocker Johnson, dealing with a foot injury. They're a very

376
00:19:01,520 --> 00:19:03,880
Speaker 1: thin team as it is. They go maybe seven deep,

377
00:19:04,000 --> 00:19:06,760
Speaker 1: so any injury is going to make things very difficult,

378
00:19:06,840 --> 00:19:08,840
Speaker 1: and it was last night. They fell to the Huskies

379
00:19:09,480 --> 00:19:13,040
Speaker 1: sixty nine to fifty seven. Defense the issue. They allowed

380
00:19:13,160 --> 00:19:16,280
Speaker 1: Washington to shoot sixty three percent and we're outscoring the

381
00:19:16,280 --> 00:19:19,440
Speaker 1: paid forty four to twenty six. So your Gophers dropped

382
00:19:19,440 --> 00:19:22,080
Speaker 1: to four and ten in the Big Ten. They'll head

383
00:19:22,119 --> 00:19:25,439
Speaker 1: to Eugene, Oregon on Tuesday, as they stay out west

384
00:19:25,840 --> 00:19:28,160
Speaker 1: and and play the two game road trip every team

385
00:19:28,160 --> 00:19:31,359
Speaker 1: gets now in the Big Ten. So rough times. We

386
00:19:31,440 --> 00:19:36,040
Speaker 1: had some nice little moments this season, but again first

387
00:19:36,080 --> 00:19:39,119
Speaker 1: year of the program. Gonna need bodies, Gonna need to

388
00:19:39,200 --> 00:19:40,919
Speaker 1: rely on more than six or seven guys in a

389
00:19:40,920 --> 00:19:42,800
Speaker 1: long Big Ten season, that's gonna catch up to you.

390
00:19:42,960 --> 00:19:45,919
Speaker 2: Yeah, and I think, you know, going forward, the coaching stephs,

391
00:19:45,920 --> 00:19:48,840
Speaker 2: it's got to maybe find a guy to here there

392
00:19:48,920 --> 00:19:51,880
Speaker 2: that can close our games with him. I mean, they've

393
00:19:51,920 --> 00:19:54,600
Speaker 2: lost a lot of close games coming down to stretch

394
00:19:54,720 --> 00:19:59,200
Speaker 2: because they just haven't been able to identify, you know.

395
00:19:59,400 --> 00:20:01,280
Speaker 1: Who can be closer for us.

396
00:20:02,800 --> 00:20:05,720
Speaker 2: And that's very important if you're going to have success,

397
00:20:05,800 --> 00:20:09,119
Speaker 2: especially in the Big Ten and hopefully one day you know,

398
00:20:09,320 --> 00:20:12,000
Speaker 2: you know, make make make marsh Madness, You're going to

399
00:20:12,080 --> 00:20:14,199
Speaker 2: have to have some guys that you can trust and

400
00:20:14,320 --> 00:20:18,080
Speaker 2: believe in that can get you timey baskets when the

401
00:20:18,160 --> 00:20:18,920
Speaker 2: game is on the line.

402
00:20:19,000 --> 00:20:20,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, and they need a few more of those. And

403
00:20:20,880 --> 00:20:23,840
Speaker 1: obviously you lose Crocker Johnson and you're heading on the

404
00:20:23,880 --> 00:20:25,639
Speaker 1: road in the Big Ten. It's going to be an

405
00:20:25,720 --> 00:20:29,439
Speaker 1: uphill putt for sure. So Gophers back in action on

406
00:20:29,560 --> 00:20:32,600
Speaker 1: Tuesday quickly. On the Olympics. I don't know if you're

407
00:20:32,680 --> 00:20:35,160
Speaker 1: invested if you've had a chance to watch a whole

408
00:20:35,160 --> 00:20:36,119
Speaker 1: lot of the Olympics.

409
00:20:36,200 --> 00:20:38,440
Speaker 2: I haven't watched a whole lot, but with some of

410
00:20:38,520 --> 00:20:41,639
Speaker 2: the prices I have caught, it's fun to watch.

411
00:20:42,040 --> 00:20:45,000
Speaker 1: I got into this the women's skeleton yesterday, you know

412
00:20:45,040 --> 00:20:48,119
Speaker 1: where they're just basically flying through that tunnel that the

413
00:20:48,440 --> 00:20:52,320
Speaker 1: course just going like seventy miles an hour. It just

414
00:20:52,400 --> 00:20:56,440
Speaker 1: boggles the mind that these human beings will put themselves

415
00:20:56,480 --> 00:20:57,480
Speaker 1: just one little.

416
00:20:57,440 --> 00:21:00,760
Speaker 2: Downhill skan I mean alp sk I mean that's something

417
00:21:00,840 --> 00:21:05,320
Speaker 2: is sick. Between sixty and eighty miles an hour yep. Now,

418
00:21:05,760 --> 00:21:09,359
Speaker 2: and the talent and the balance, you know, to be

419
00:21:09,440 --> 00:21:11,960
Speaker 2: able to do that on those skis, but also to

420
00:21:12,040 --> 00:21:14,560
Speaker 2: have the courage to be in the mountains to do that,

421
00:21:15,600 --> 00:21:16,359
Speaker 2: it's incredible.

422
00:21:16,440 --> 00:21:19,399
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's it's so picturesque. Some of these sports are

423
00:21:19,440 --> 00:21:21,520
Speaker 1: so fun to watch, and obviously hockey is going to

424
00:21:21,640 --> 00:21:24,879
Speaker 1: garner most of sports fans' attention just because of the

425
00:21:24,880 --> 00:21:28,360
Speaker 1: familiar names and obviously what hockey is and how popular

426
00:21:28,400 --> 00:21:31,000
Speaker 1: it is. The men beat Denmark six', three but it

427
00:21:31,040 --> 00:21:34,200
Speaker 1: was not. Easy they were down two to one after one.

428
00:21:34,240 --> 00:21:36,480
Speaker 1: Period they get they scored three times in the second

429
00:21:36,760 --> 00:21:39,600
Speaker 1: rusco the long shot from eighty feet or, something and

430
00:21:39,600 --> 00:21:41,840
Speaker 1: they got one at the very end of the period.

431
00:21:41,840 --> 00:21:44,320
Speaker 1: Too Mister Blake moriy will weave you in as we

432
00:21:45,000 --> 00:21:49,199
Speaker 1: mentioned your favorite. Sport we talked yesterday as we were

433
00:21:49,240 --> 00:21:51,320
Speaker 1: heading into this game Against. Denmark, now the first, game

434
00:21:51,359 --> 00:21:54,080
Speaker 1: the kind of feeling the, roads they didn't look all that,

435
00:21:54,200 --> 00:21:56,720
Speaker 1: sharp maybe at least to, start had a couple of

436
00:21:56,760 --> 00:21:58,960
Speaker 1: goals called, back which kept things kind of meaty for a.

437
00:21:59,000 --> 00:22:02,280
Speaker 1: While but even yesterday it wasn't as maybe as easy

438
00:22:02,280 --> 00:22:05,520
Speaker 1: as you thought it might. Be the goalie really, struggled

439
00:22:05,520 --> 00:22:06,600
Speaker 1: gave up three goals in twelve.

440
00:22:06,680 --> 00:22:09,680
Speaker 4: Sets, YEAH i don't know if If, OTTINGER i haven't

441
00:22:09,680 --> 00:22:12,000
Speaker 4: seen anything about. It maybe there's something out there Why

442
00:22:12,080 --> 00:22:15,320
Speaker 4: ottinger didn't play instead Of. Swagmen but, yeah you give

443
00:22:15,359 --> 00:22:17,679
Speaker 4: up THAT i get the puck at that, distance you

444
00:22:17,800 --> 00:22:20,520
Speaker 4: might not be either expecting it or might blend in

445
00:22:20,560 --> 00:22:22,880
Speaker 4: with the crowd or something along those. Lines is still

446
00:22:22,880 --> 00:22:26,639
Speaker 4: a bad goal to give. Up, nonetheless it's none of

447
00:22:26,640 --> 00:22:29,919
Speaker 4: these games Really, besides you, Know canada has been, easy

448
00:22:30,680 --> 00:22:33,560
Speaker 4: and we saw THAT i Think latvia Upset, germany WHO

449
00:22:33,560 --> 00:22:35,119
Speaker 4: i said was going to be the toughest team in our,

450
00:22:35,119 --> 00:22:38,320
Speaker 4: pool and the team that we smoked a couple of

451
00:22:38,359 --> 00:22:41,080
Speaker 4: days ago Beat. Germany so none of the games are.

452
00:22:41,119 --> 00:22:43,120
Speaker 4: Easy but they did find a way and then they

453
00:22:43,440 --> 00:22:45,760
Speaker 4: once they kind of got their footing then they really

454
00:22:45,800 --> 00:22:47,280
Speaker 4: stepped on the gas and made it six to.

455
00:22:47,320 --> 00:22:49,120
Speaker 1: Three a couple of good goals from.

456
00:22:49,359 --> 00:22:53,480
Speaker 4: You, Know, boldie and you, KNOW i didn't catch all of, it,

457
00:22:53,560 --> 00:22:55,880
Speaker 4: unfortunately still doing with my, stuff But i've watched it back,

458
00:22:55,920 --> 00:22:59,320
Speaker 4: since SO i was Still, yeah it took a little

459
00:22:59,359 --> 00:23:01,960
Speaker 4: longer than we. Thought but as long as they're winning

460
00:23:01,960 --> 00:23:03,080
Speaker 4: and getting a good spot.

461
00:23:02,840 --> 00:23:04,920
Speaker 1: In the middle, round that's ALL i care. About don't

462
00:23:04,960 --> 00:23:07,159
Speaker 1: you figure they went with swimming at goal because they

463
00:23:07,160 --> 00:23:08,840
Speaker 1: have back to back games and they didn't want to have.

464
00:23:08,960 --> 00:23:10,920
Speaker 4: Well, yeah well hella bucks the number.

465
00:23:10,960 --> 00:23:13,560
Speaker 1: ONE i thought That. Ottinger oh they have three. Goalies

505
00:25:30,400 --> 00:25:32,760
Speaker 2: Player they were like a down screen to be they

506
00:25:32,760 --> 00:25:35,879
Speaker 2: called like fifty two or, whatever where he would go

507
00:25:36,000 --> 00:25:39,640
Speaker 2: underneath the basket and he would just camp out there

508
00:25:39,640 --> 00:25:41,760
Speaker 2: and then the five guy would come down and screen

509
00:25:41,840 --> 00:25:45,040
Speaker 2: for him the center and he would catch the ball

510
00:25:45,080 --> 00:25:47,760
Speaker 2: between fifteen and seventeen Feet and that's what and that's

511
00:25:47,760 --> 00:25:52,240

514
00:26:00,119 --> 00:26:01,280
Speaker 2: just a nightmare for me to deal.

515
00:26:01,440 --> 00:26:03,080
Speaker 1: Interesting, yeah AND i could have come up with a

516
00:26:03,160 --> 00:26:05,119

517
00:26:05,119 --> 00:26:05,879
Speaker 1: to answer that.

518
00:26:05,960 --> 00:26:09,760
Speaker 2: Question me and And Ricky pierce would have been better

519
00:26:09,840 --> 00:26:12,199
Speaker 2: than he was if he hadn't gotten the knee injury in,

520
00:26:12,240 --> 00:26:16,399

Speaker 2: two off the drib of bounce for a pull up jump.

526
00:26:29,840 --> 00:26:32,600

527
00:26:32,640 --> 00:26:35,600
Speaker 2: a nightmare for me to. Guard and but there was

528
00:26:35,640 --> 00:26:37,320

538
00:27:03,359 --> 00:27:05,880

546
00:27:25,000 --> 00:27:26,959
Speaker 2: to his, feet and his feet went, bad you, know

547
00:27:27,040 --> 00:27:29,880
Speaker 2: throughout his career and the cutters in his cutter his career.

548

Speaker 1: you got twenty.

552
00:27:39,440 --> 00:27:42,080
Speaker 2: Seconds WHEN i was in college and we were planning

553
00:27:42,520 --> 00:27:44,960
Speaker 2: uh in a tournament At Wims arena and there was

554
00:27:44,960 --> 00:27:47,520
Speaker 2: a team from South West louisiana was coming into. Play

555
00:27:48,760 --> 00:27:51,240
Speaker 2: so midway through, Practice Jim dutchess, said, hey, no go

556
00:27:51,320 --> 00:27:53,359
Speaker 2: to the film room with one of the one of

557
00:27:53,359 --> 00:27:58,199
Speaker 2: the trainers and they gonna show you some tape of

558
00:27:58,280 --> 00:27:59,320
Speaker 2: this guy who.

559
00:27:59,720 --> 00:28:00,480
Speaker 1: You have never heard.

560
00:28:00,520 --> 00:28:01,560
Speaker 3: Of it's.

561
00:28:01,600 --> 00:28:03,840
Speaker 2: Okay SO i go in and watch the tape AND

562
00:28:03,880 --> 00:28:06,320
Speaker 2: i come back and he, said what did you. SEE i,

563
00:28:06,320 --> 00:28:08,119
Speaker 2: SAID i saw a guy get forty points on the,

564
00:28:08,119 --> 00:28:09,200
Speaker 2: tape and he, said that's your guy IN.

565
00:28:09,280 --> 00:28:13,639
Speaker 1: Ma that Was Andrew tony at least told me SO

566
00:28:13,680 --> 00:28:15,879
Speaker 1: i can sleep, tonight wait till tomorrow to tell. Me

567
00:28:16,400 --> 00:28:17,840
Speaker 1: probably didn't get a whole lot of sleep that.

568
00:28:17,920 --> 00:28:20,479
Speaker 2: Night AND i, said the only thing that you, know

569
00:28:20,520 --> 00:28:23,640
Speaker 2: they kept me from guarding him in so many one

570
00:28:23,640 --> 00:28:26,760
Speaker 2: on one type. Situations our game plan was that if we,

571
00:28:26,880 --> 00:28:30,760
Speaker 2: scored we play a zone. Defense if we didn't, score

572
00:28:30,760 --> 00:28:32,480
Speaker 2: we had to play a man and Man and on that,

573
00:28:32,640 --> 00:28:35,040
Speaker 2: NIGHT i think as a, team we must have shot

574
00:28:35,080 --> 00:28:37,679
Speaker 2: seventy five. Percent SO i didn't get to see the

575
00:28:37,720 --> 00:28:40,600
Speaker 2: real lethal side offensively For Andrew, tone you were a.

576
00:28:40,640 --> 00:28:42,880
Speaker 1: Zone a lot UNTIL i got to THE. Nba, yeah,

577
00:28:42,960 --> 00:28:45,040
Speaker 1: yeah then you realized what he. Was yeah he. Was

578
00:28:45,120 --> 00:28:47,480
Speaker 1: he was a great. One all. Right so Your timberwolves

579
00:28:47,560 --> 00:28:49,360
Speaker 1: at The All Star break double t are sitting at

580
00:28:49,360 --> 00:28:53,440
Speaker 1: thirty four and twenty. Two uh, Huh, WELL i said it.

581
00:28:53,480 --> 00:28:55,920
Speaker 1: Yesterday it's actually three games better than last, year and

582
00:28:55,960 --> 00:28:58,080
Speaker 1: it feels like it feels like it's. Worse but we

583
00:28:58,160 --> 00:29:00,520
Speaker 1: forget that last year was a rocky. Start now they

584
00:29:00,600 --> 00:29:03,640
Speaker 1: took off last season at this, point remember that that

585
00:29:03,720 --> 00:29:06,320
Speaker 1: what's seventeen to four run whatever it. Was i'm not

586
00:29:06,360 --> 00:29:09,840
Speaker 1: sure we're going to have that in. Us but sitting

587
00:29:09,840 --> 00:29:12,960
Speaker 1: in sixth virtual tie for fifth with The, lakers same

588
00:29:12,960 --> 00:29:15,960
Speaker 1: place where in. Ago, yeah season to six pot and

589
00:29:16,200 --> 00:29:18,640
Speaker 1: just a game and a half out of Third, denver you,

590
00:29:18,680 --> 00:29:21,880
Speaker 1: know And denver thoughways going to only improve as they get.

591
00:29:21,880 --> 00:29:24,040
Speaker 1: Healthier so it's going to be a difficult putt to

592
00:29:24,040 --> 00:29:24,240
Speaker 1: get to.

593
00:29:24,320 --> 00:29:28,800
Speaker 2: Three many games we away from, ten it's a, ways,

594
00:29:29,000 --> 00:29:29,520
Speaker 2: yeah it's a.

595
00:29:29,520 --> 00:29:32,760
Speaker 1: Ways slippers might be, ten and, NO i don't think

596
00:29:32,760 --> 00:29:36,080
Speaker 1: we have to worry about. THAT i, think, YEAH i

597
00:29:36,120 --> 00:29:39,680
Speaker 1: think certainly if they were, eight, yeah they're to fall into.

598
00:29:39,680 --> 00:29:42,800
Speaker 1: Seven seven is there's a break between seven and, Eight

599
00:29:42,840 --> 00:29:45,239
Speaker 1: phoenix at seven and then there's a bit of a.

600
00:29:45,280 --> 00:29:49,160
Speaker 1: Gap phoenix is playing, well and so you, know there

601
00:29:49,200 --> 00:29:51,120
Speaker 1: is that concern that you're not that far from, seven

602
00:29:51,200 --> 00:29:53,400
Speaker 1: and you don't want to obviously follow the top beyond

603
00:29:53,400 --> 00:29:55,720
Speaker 1: the top, six but you know where this team, is

604
00:29:55,800 --> 00:29:57,680
Speaker 1: how this team is. Playing we a we could Go

605
00:29:57,720 --> 00:29:59,400
Speaker 1: TODAY i think was The clippers, game and that was

606
00:29:59,440 --> 00:30:03,000
Speaker 1: another lowe, point just a terrible game against The, clippers

607
00:30:03,000 --> 00:30:05,880
Speaker 1: a game that really they had just made some. Trades you,

608
00:30:05,880 --> 00:30:08,600
Speaker 1: Know harden And zubats are. Gone this is not a

609
00:30:08,640 --> 00:30:11,520
Speaker 1: team that you should lose to at, home and they,

610
00:30:11,520 --> 00:30:14,320
Speaker 1: did and they've they rallied following that game and they

611
00:30:14,360 --> 00:30:18,240
Speaker 1: blew Out. Atlanta With na's, return they blew Out. Portland

612
00:30:18,880 --> 00:30:22,000
Speaker 1: randall had forty, one including twenty three in the fourth

613
00:30:22,120 --> 00:30:25,040
Speaker 1: quarter of that. Game that was, actually you, know it

614
00:30:25,040 --> 00:30:27,000
Speaker 1: was a fun game to. Watch jayden was really. Good

615
00:30:28,400 --> 00:30:30,160
Speaker 1: BUT i mentioned this yesterday AND i want to get

616
00:30:30,160 --> 00:30:32,640
Speaker 1: your thoughts on, it because you, Know randall's been kind

617
00:30:32,640 --> 00:30:35,080
Speaker 1: of up and, down and a lot of people have

618
00:30:35,200 --> 00:30:38,760
Speaker 1: connected the dots that his game has kind of looked

619
00:30:38,800 --> 00:30:40,960
Speaker 1: bad ever since his name was thrown out there in

620
00:30:41,000 --> 00:30:44,400
Speaker 1: trade talks as The wolves were exploring A giannis. Trade you,

621
00:30:44,400 --> 00:30:47,120
Speaker 1: Know randall was a prominent name that might have to,

622
00:30:47,160 --> 00:30:51,760
Speaker 1: go and a number of guys that cover this team

623
00:30:52,000 --> 00:30:54,200
Speaker 1: speculate that that does affect, him that he's one of

624
00:30:54,200 --> 00:30:56,880
Speaker 1: those guys that is affected by that and his play.

625
00:30:56,880 --> 00:31:01,640
Speaker 1: Suffers we've seen some defensive indifference from, him not just

626
00:31:01,840 --> 00:31:03,720
Speaker 1: since the trade stuff came, up we see it from

627
00:31:03,720 --> 00:31:08,360
Speaker 1: time to, time but it was really. Obvious so how

628
00:31:08,440 --> 00:31:10,960
Speaker 1: much do you buy into, that that that some guys

629
00:31:11,000 --> 00:31:14,000
Speaker 1: can be really affected knowing that you know they're. Comfortable

630
00:31:14,120 --> 00:31:16,440
Speaker 1: we know from all we've Read JULIUS randalld loves this,

635
00:31:26,800 --> 00:31:31,040

641
00:31:46,960 --> 00:31:48,720
Speaker 1: Job it's a nature.

642
00:31:48,960 --> 00:31:51,760
Speaker 2: GAME i, mean nobody wants to be, traded especially if

643
00:31:51,800 --> 00:31:54,400
Speaker 2: you if you like where you, are you have a,

644
00:31:54,480 --> 00:31:55,480

00:31:57,440 --> 00:31:57,640
Speaker 1: all of.

647
00:31:57,680 --> 00:32:00,880
Speaker 2: That, yeah and it can't affect you because now you

648
00:32:00,960 --> 00:32:06,320
Speaker 2: have to rearrange somebody else's life as. Well but once

649
00:32:06,320 --> 00:32:09,560
Speaker 2: the trade deadline is, over now it's time to get

650
00:32:09,600 --> 00:32:11,560
Speaker 2: back to doing what we're supposed to do as a basketball.

651
00:32:11,560 --> 00:32:13,360
Speaker 2: Team you gotta get over. It you gotta move. On

652
00:32:13,640 --> 00:32:16,000
Speaker 2: it's the nature of the. Game it's not gonna last

653
00:32:16,000 --> 00:32:19,680
Speaker 2: for a very long. Time And i've always, said when

654
00:32:19,720 --> 00:32:21,920
Speaker 2: you are not the main guy in. Charge you're at

655
00:32:21,920 --> 00:32:24,400
Speaker 2: the mercy of the people that you work, for and

656
00:32:24,600 --> 00:32:27,520
Speaker 2: some days when they wake, up you have no idea

657
00:32:27,560 --> 00:32:31,920
Speaker 2: what they're. Thinking and that's just how it. Is So,

658
00:32:33,200 --> 00:32:35,720
Speaker 2: yeah ANY i, know all players hate to hear their

659
00:32:35,800 --> 00:32:40,080
Speaker 2: names in trade rumors unless they don't like the situation

660
00:32:40,200 --> 00:32:43,000
Speaker 2: there in, right if they believe they can they can

661
00:32:43,080 --> 00:32:46,560
Speaker 2: go to a better situation with the. Trade, yeah they're

662
00:32:46,600 --> 00:32:49,600
Speaker 2: sitting by the phone and hoping that the call comes.

663
00:32:49,640 --> 00:32:52,600
Speaker 2: In but for a guy Like Julius, randall who is

664
00:32:52,720 --> 00:32:56,880
Speaker 2: established now you know in this, area his family likes.

665
00:32:56,920 --> 00:32:59,120
Speaker 2: It these kids are probably in, school they've made some,

666
00:32:59,240 --> 00:33:01,600
Speaker 2: friends they don't want to continue to move.

667
00:33:01,440 --> 00:33:03,760
Speaker 1: All over the. Place, yeah it's.

668
00:33:03,840 --> 00:33:06,560
Speaker 2: Hard it's a hard situation for for any guy to be,

669
00:33:06,640 --> 00:33:08,320
Speaker 2: in but it's the nature of the game that we have.

670
00:33:08,400 --> 00:33:12,560
Speaker 1: Chose he definitely was motivated Against PORTLAND a he knew

671
00:33:12,560 --> 00:33:14,680
Speaker 1: he was, here so he was happy about. That but

672
00:33:14,760 --> 00:33:16,680
Speaker 1: he also looked across the court and saw a guy

673
00:33:16,680 --> 00:33:19,520
Speaker 1: who was named The All star team And Denny, avdya

674
00:33:20,760 --> 00:33:22,760
Speaker 1: a guy that maybe took his. Spot in his mind

675
00:33:22,760 --> 00:33:25,840
Speaker 1: that maybe he was in contention for that, spot and

676
00:33:25,920 --> 00:33:28,480
Speaker 1: so maybe he wanted to show that you know, what

677
00:33:29,040 --> 00:33:31,600
Speaker 1: you're An All, star but you know you got nothing on,

678
00:33:31,640 --> 00:33:34,720
Speaker 1: me and goes up and throws up forty one. Points, Meanwhile,

679
00:33:34,800 --> 00:33:38,640
Speaker 1: ovidia dealing With jaden McDaniel's, defense went three for fourteen

680
00:33:38,680 --> 00:33:40,600
Speaker 1: and had eleven. POINTS i JUST i kind of feel

681
00:33:40,640 --> 00:33:43,360
Speaker 1: like the team looked at it and, Said, julius we got.

682
00:33:43,360 --> 00:33:45,840
Speaker 1: You you do your, thing will show you know which

683
00:33:45,840 --> 00:33:47,480
Speaker 1: guy deserves to be in The All Star, game at

684
00:33:47,560 --> 00:33:50,640
Speaker 1: least for one. NIGHT i thought that was interesting that

685
00:33:50,920 --> 00:33:52,960
Speaker 1: he had that night knowing that a guy that maybe

686
00:33:52,960 --> 00:33:56,680
Speaker 1: took his, Spot, yeah probably. Motivatding but, meanwhile he had

687
00:33:56,720 --> 00:33:58,400
Speaker 1: a couple more chances to get named to the team

688
00:33:58,400 --> 00:34:01,000
Speaker 1: because there's been some, injuries you, know And Souddenly Brandon

689
00:34:01,120 --> 00:34:03,520
Speaker 1: ingram gets named and De Aaron fox gets, named and

690
00:34:03,560 --> 00:34:06,120
Speaker 1: you look at the stats between the three of, them

691
00:34:06,840 --> 00:34:09,240
Speaker 1: And randall beats both of. Them you, Know randall's averaging

692
00:34:09,239 --> 00:34:12,600
Speaker 1: twenty two to, Three ingram twenty one to, Eight fox nineteen.

693
00:34:12,680 --> 00:34:16,600
Speaker 1: Four he's averaging more rebounds than both of, Them he's averaging,

694
00:34:16,880 --> 00:34:18,920
Speaker 1: yeah and he's averaging more assists Than ingram in just

695
00:34:18,960 --> 00:34:20,920
Speaker 1: a hap maybe what assists less a game than the

696
00:34:20,920 --> 00:34:24,360
Speaker 1: De Aaron, fox who's a point. Guard So i'm not

697
00:34:24,360 --> 00:34:26,040
Speaker 1: going to get up my soapbox and say he was,

698
00:34:26,160 --> 00:34:31,400
Speaker 1: robbed BUT i can understand the. Snubification yeah that you,

699
00:34:31,440 --> 00:34:33,600
Speaker 1: know he certainly has a case to have been named

700
00:34:33,600 --> 00:34:36,000
Speaker 1: to this. Team. Now from What i've, read they're on

701
00:34:36,040 --> 00:34:38,200
Speaker 1: a beach, somewhere he and his family somewhere nice and.

702
00:34:38,239 --> 00:34:41,360
Speaker 1: WARM i doubt he's feeling too terrible that he's not

703
00:34:42,000 --> 00:34:44,279
Speaker 1: IN la for this, game but right here as, well

704
00:34:44,480 --> 00:34:47,920
Speaker 1: it isn't. Best he could almost play outdoors. Today, actually

705
00:34:49,200 --> 00:34:51,920
Speaker 1: the game, today The All Star, game will be played

706
00:34:52,040 --> 00:34:54,239
Speaker 1: in the, afternoon AS i, mentioned because The olympics are

707
00:34:54,280 --> 00:34:57,600
Speaker 1: also ON. Nbc we know that the game has become

708
00:34:57,680 --> 00:35:01,040
Speaker 1: kind of a. Mockery most guys have no interest in being.

709
00:35:01,080 --> 00:35:04,760
Speaker 1: There it's hard to, watch you. Know i'm a product

710
00:35:04,760 --> 00:35:08,040
Speaker 1: of the seventies where THE Nba All Star game WHEN

711
00:35:08,080 --> 00:35:10,520
Speaker 1: i was admit. Something, yeah and THEN i THINK i

712
00:35:10,560 --> 00:35:12,520
Speaker 1: was fifteen when it was In milwaukee AND i got to,

713
00:35:12,520 --> 00:35:14,800
Speaker 1: go and it was one of those memories of seeing

714
00:35:14,800 --> 00:35:17,359
Speaker 1: all those guys on one court from the. Seventies it

715
00:35:17,400 --> 00:35:20,160
Speaker 1: was just this is if you're a hoops. Fan to,

716
00:35:20,160 --> 00:35:22,560
Speaker 1: me that was as good as it gets. Now we

717
00:35:22,640 --> 00:35:24,319
Speaker 1: know it's a far cry from what it was like

718
00:35:24,360 --> 00:35:27,560
Speaker 1: almost fifty years, ago BUT i do at least give

719
00:35:27,560 --> 00:35:31,200
Speaker 1: the league credit for trying something different this, year trying

720
00:35:31,239 --> 00:35:34,240
Speaker 1: to see if this might get the guys. Interested because

721
00:35:34,280 --> 00:35:37,680
Speaker 1: each game is a, quarter each game is twelve. Minutes

722
00:35:37,960 --> 00:35:40,640
Speaker 1: there's three, teams there's A world, team there's Two american,

723
00:35:40,680 --> 00:35:42,440
Speaker 1: teams one with the old, guys one with the young.

724
00:35:42,480 --> 00:35:44,399
Speaker 1: Guys so they kind of split it up that, way

725
00:35:44,800 --> 00:35:49,520
Speaker 1: and so you, know in the first game it's DID

726
00:35:49,520 --> 00:35:52,040
Speaker 1: i write down with THE i guess It's stars Against.

727
00:35:52,040 --> 00:35:54,720
Speaker 1: World so the first game are The World All stars

728
00:35:54,719 --> 00:35:57,359
Speaker 1: against The, stars which is ants, team and they'll play

729
00:35:57,400 --> 00:35:59,839
Speaker 1: a twelve minute, game and then they'll round. Robin each

730
00:36:00,080 --> 00:36:01,600
Speaker 1: will play age. Team so each of the first three

731
00:36:01,680 --> 00:36:05,000
Speaker 1: quarters it'll be you, Know world Against, stars and Then

732
00:36:05,000 --> 00:36:06,839
Speaker 1: stripes plays the winner of the first, game and Then

733
00:36:06,840 --> 00:36:09,440
Speaker 1: stripes plays the loser of the first. Game then the

734
00:36:09,440 --> 00:36:11,120
Speaker 1: two teams with the best record will meet in the

735
00:36:11,200 --> 00:36:14,640
Speaker 1: quote unquote fourth quarter for a twelve minute championship. Game

736
00:36:15,239 --> 00:36:17,240
Speaker 1: you'd like, that, WELL i just feel like at least

737
00:36:17,480 --> 00:36:19,719
Speaker 1: each game is its own little twelve minute entity that

738
00:36:19,840 --> 00:36:23,120
Speaker 1: maybe they'll actually care about trying to get to that final.

739
00:36:23,160 --> 00:36:25,200
Speaker 1: GAME i, mean there is you, know some money involved.

740
00:36:25,239 --> 00:36:29,320
Speaker 1: HERE i don't. Know I'm i'm all first trying something.

741
00:36:29,320 --> 00:36:30,799
Speaker 1: DIFFERENT i don't think we're going to see the wide

742
00:36:30,800 --> 00:36:33,640
Speaker 1: open just, fast break up and. Down nobody's going back

743
00:36:33,640 --> 00:36:36,239
Speaker 1: to play any. DEFENSE i have a feeling we'll see

744
00:36:36,280 --> 00:36:38,719
Speaker 1: more of what looks like a basketball. Teach you have a.

745
00:36:40,520 --> 00:36:44,120
Speaker 2: You have all THE usa. Team, yeah so the old

746
00:36:44,120 --> 00:36:45,400
Speaker 2: team and a YOUNGER usa.

747
00:36:45,480 --> 00:36:47,960
Speaker 1: Team, yes the old team is being coached by The

748
00:36:47,960 --> 00:36:51,480
Speaker 1: spurs Coach Mitch. Johnson that team is consistent Of curry

00:36:51,480 --> 00:36:53,560
Speaker 1: would have been on this, team but he's obviously. Injured

750
00:36:53,960 --> 00:37:00,480
Speaker 1: but Kad Lebron, Kawhi Jalen, Brown Donovan, mitchell Jal, bronson

805
00:39:40,000 --> 00:39:44,120
Speaker 1: try to strategically see If max's ready between periods of,

806
00:39:44,640 --> 00:39:46,840
Speaker 1: hockey because that would be the perfect like fifteen minute

807
00:39:47,200 --> 00:39:51,120
Speaker 1: twenty minute exercise time for you for your. Boy but,

808
00:39:51,160 --> 00:39:54,359

811
00:39:58,880 --> 00:40:01,759
Speaker 1: all the sports will be over and we'll do, that all.

812
00:40:01,840 --> 00:40:05,719
Speaker 1: Right so back to The wolves for a. Minute the

813
00:40:06,160 --> 00:40:08,759
Speaker 1: last few, games we get our first glimpse Of ayu De,

814
00:40:08,880 --> 00:40:13,480
Speaker 1: sunmu who HAS i think worked in quite. Seamlessly he

815
00:40:13,560 --> 00:40:18,040
Speaker 1: immediately shows you what he's got and what The wolves

816
00:40:18,040 --> 00:40:21,560
Speaker 1: have not. Had the, speed the quickness is off the,

817
00:40:21,640 --> 00:40:24,400
Speaker 1: charts and then he gets down court so, fast and

818
00:40:24,440 --> 00:40:26,520
Speaker 1: he knows what to do with the. BUY i think

819
00:40:26,560 --> 00:40:29,640
Speaker 1: he is going to be a fantastic addition to this.

820
00:40:29,760 --> 00:40:34,000
Speaker 1: Rotation he's already proven to be just. That whether he's

821
00:40:34,400 --> 00:40:36,719
Speaker 1: scoring in transition where he's finding the open guy he

822
00:40:36,760 --> 00:40:40,080
Speaker 1: can knock down the, three he's showing the defense the

823
00:40:40,080 --> 00:40:43,279
Speaker 1: defensive chops that he. HAS i think it was said

824
00:40:43,280 --> 00:40:45,480
Speaker 1: when the trade was made that he's kind of like

825
00:40:45,560 --> 00:40:48,120
Speaker 1: the perfect talent for what this team's. Missing he's sort

826
00:40:48,160 --> 00:40:50,880
Speaker 1: of Like gnaw in a, way but he's got a

827
00:40:50,880 --> 00:40:54,160
Speaker 1: lot more. Speed defense may not be quite as as

828
00:40:54,200 --> 00:40:58,000
Speaker 1: great as nas, is but, YEAH i think the early

829
00:40:58,040 --> 00:41:00,000
Speaker 1: returns are exciting for what he might bring this team

830
00:41:00,480 --> 00:41:02,680
Speaker 1: the rest of the. Way now we'll see If conley

831
00:41:02,680 --> 00:41:06,160
Speaker 1: gets added in the next week or. So, again, financially

832
00:41:06,200 --> 00:41:09,360
Speaker 1: they have to wait a little bit to stay under certain.

833
00:41:09,440 --> 00:41:11,200
Speaker 1: Levels you, know you got to pay him a pro

834
00:41:11,280 --> 00:41:14,160
Speaker 1: rated amount of what his salary'd be as a. Veteran

835
00:41:14,400 --> 00:41:16,520
Speaker 1: he's not, gonna you, know to worry about the ten

836
00:41:16,560 --> 00:41:18,759
Speaker 1: million that was on the. Cap that's. Off and then

837
00:41:18,760 --> 00:41:21,160
Speaker 1: there's one more spot available for this team to add

838
00:41:21,239 --> 00:41:23,640
Speaker 1: a fourteenth, guy if if they choose to do, it

839
00:41:23,680 --> 00:41:26,560
Speaker 1: if they want to. Wait we've seen the buy out

840
00:41:26,600 --> 00:41:29,240
Speaker 1: market a little. Bit the biggest name Was Cam, johnson

841
00:41:29,280 --> 00:41:32,279
Speaker 1: who was waived by The. Nets he Joined milwaukee and

842
00:41:32,360 --> 00:41:35,279
Speaker 1: put up thirty four the other, night the last game

843
00:41:35,560 --> 00:41:39,680
Speaker 1: before the. Break And milwaukee's interesting because we're winning games

844
00:41:39,719 --> 00:41:42,319
Speaker 1: now exactly and it doesn't do them any. Good in,

845
00:41:42,400 --> 00:41:44,879
Speaker 1: reality we're going to talk about tanking in the next.

846
00:41:44,880 --> 00:41:50,400
Speaker 1: Segment milwaukee should be incentivized to tank because their best

847
00:41:50,440 --> 00:41:53,400
Speaker 1: hope is to find luck in the draft to pair

848
00:41:53,440 --> 00:41:55,920
Speaker 1: With gannus or as you move on from You honess

849
00:41:56,600 --> 00:41:59,560
Speaker 1: to give you a signature. Player but they're still holding

850
00:41:59,600 --> 00:42:02,719
Speaker 1: out hope that if If Cam Johnson paybe can give

851
00:42:02,760 --> 00:42:05,279
Speaker 1: them a little spark and This bucks team can lift

852
00:42:05,320 --> 00:42:07,520
Speaker 1: themselves into that nine to ten spot And gianna's is,

853
00:42:07,560 --> 00:42:10,080
Speaker 1: back that maybe they can surprise and do something some

854
00:42:10,200 --> 00:42:13,000
Speaker 1: damage in the. Postseason they are not given up because

855
00:42:13,040 --> 00:42:16,200
Speaker 1: they believe there is a glimmer that they can hang

856
00:42:16,239 --> 00:42:18,640
Speaker 1: on To, gianna's WHICH i, think as much As i'd

857
00:42:18,680 --> 00:42:20,360
Speaker 1: love to see, IT i think it's kind of a misguided.

858
00:42:20,400 --> 00:42:25,080
Speaker 1: Strategy but in this current era of, tanking it's somewhat

859
00:42:25,120 --> 00:42:27,720
Speaker 1: refreshing to see a bottom feeding team like The bucks

860
00:42:27,760 --> 00:42:30,000
Speaker 1: right now doing all they can to try to. Win

861
00:42:30,320 --> 00:42:32,560
Speaker 1: that's not what we're seeing from, that but that's What

862
00:42:32,760 --> 00:42:35,080
Speaker 1: but that's what the game is. About it should, be,

863
00:42:35,480 --> 00:42:39,239
Speaker 1: yeah it should. Be unfortunately that's not the, case and

864
00:42:39,280 --> 00:42:42,520
Speaker 1: it's become a big. Problem Adam silver addressed it yesterday

865
00:42:42,760 --> 00:42:46,040
Speaker 1: along with expansion. Talk what to do with tanking? Teams

866
00:42:46,080 --> 00:42:49,719
Speaker 1: how do we change the? System? Easy how badly can

867
00:42:49,760 --> 00:42:51,799
Speaker 1: you find? THEM i know, you you might be all,

868
00:42:51,880 --> 00:42:53,440

880
00:43:54,480 --> 00:43:57,400
Speaker 1: THAT i didn't realize The globetrotters are in town today

881
00:43:57,840 --> 00:44:02,479
Speaker 1: making their annual. Visit and he had a little, history

882
00:44:02,520 --> 00:44:06,319
Speaker 1: Little globetrotter's. History they're celebrating their one hundredth anniversary this.

883
00:44:06,480 --> 00:44:10,280
Speaker 1: Year he had a couple of historical. Tidbits their first

884
00:44:10,520 --> 00:44:14,560
Speaker 1: documented game in this state Was january twenty, sixth nineteen,

885
00:44:14,760 --> 00:44:18,239
Speaker 1: thirty when they were upset by The Gates recreation team

886
00:44:18,280 --> 00:44:21,160
Speaker 1: Of Saint paul thirty four to thirty, three clearly before

887
00:44:21,200 --> 00:44:25,680
Speaker 1: The Washington generals became their their common. Foe that broke

888
00:44:25,680 --> 00:44:28,400
Speaker 1: a string of thirty nine straight wins by The. Globetrotters

889
00:44:28,920 --> 00:44:31,319
Speaker 1: and then in nineteen forty, eight they beat The Minneapolis

890
00:44:31,400 --> 00:44:35,480
Speaker 1: lakers sixty one to fifty nine in an exhibition At Chicago,

891
00:44:35,560 --> 00:44:41,200
Speaker 1: Stadium Winnesota. Rights according to At newspapers an x, account

892
00:44:42,080 --> 00:44:44,160
Speaker 1: it quote was a significant event as it helped to

893
00:44:44,239 --> 00:44:48,880
Speaker 1: challenge racial barriers in basketball and accelerated the desegregation of THE.

894
00:44:48,960 --> 00:44:53,520
Speaker 1: Nba now that back in nineteen forty, eight and that's

895
00:44:53,560 --> 00:44:56,880
Speaker 1: interesting and not at all, surprising and you, know you

896
00:44:56,960 --> 00:45:00,839
Speaker 1: wonder where The globetrotters fit in the history of, Basketball

897
00:45:01,280 --> 00:45:04,200
Speaker 1: and that might be one of the most important elements

898
00:45:04,320 --> 00:45:07,160
Speaker 1: is that they opened people's eyes and, said you know,

899
00:45:07,200 --> 00:45:11,000
Speaker 1: what let's allow these players to play in THE. Nba

900
00:45:11,080 --> 00:45:13,520
Speaker 1: if you want the best basketball players to, play why

901
00:45:13,560 --> 00:45:15,480
Speaker 1: don't we be human beings here and let them. Play

902
00:45:16,280 --> 00:45:18,840

Speaker 2: three teams either the seventy six, ers The, celtics or The.

914
00:45:48,960 --> 00:45:51,520
Speaker 2: Lakers and we could watch The pistons just because we

915
00:45:51,560 --> 00:45:57,840
Speaker 2: were in the. Environment but to be close up against

916
00:45:57,840 --> 00:46:00,400
Speaker 2: The Globe trotters and watch how they, perform that was

917
00:46:00,800 --> 00:46:02,840
Speaker 2: a big time for kids in the city of Friend

918
00:46:02,880 --> 00:46:03,480
Speaker 2: in this, state.

919
00:46:03,440 --> 00:46:06,680
Speaker 1: It's hard to explain how popular they were back. Then you,

962
00:48:15,880 --> 00:48:18,600

963
00:48:18,600 --> 00:48:20,480
Speaker 1: of changes over the years to try to make it.

964
00:48:21,040 --> 00:48:24,959
Speaker 1: Less you, know of a thing to want to. Tank

965
00:48:25,040 --> 00:48:26,319
Speaker 1: you know you're not going to just have the worst

966
00:48:26,400 --> 00:48:28,400
Speaker 1: record and get the first. Pick the best chance you

967
00:48:28,440 --> 00:48:30,880
Speaker 1: have is twenty five, percent but it still is not

968
00:48:30,960 --> 00:48:33,760
Speaker 1: stopping teams who have looked at the analytics and said

969
00:48:34,520 --> 00:48:37,399
Speaker 1: we'll take our. Chances in particular DOUBLE. TEA a team

970
00:48:37,520 --> 00:48:40,759
Speaker 1: Like utah knows that if they end up with the

971
00:48:40,840 --> 00:48:42,960
Speaker 1: top bottom four, record if they have one of the

972
00:48:43,040 --> 00:48:46,239
Speaker 1: first worst four, records when the season's, over they're going

973
00:48:46,320 --> 00:48:48,880
Speaker 1: to be guaranteed no worse than the eighth, pick and

974
00:48:48,960 --> 00:48:51,640
Speaker 1: their pick is top eight. Protected this, year it doesn't

975
00:48:51,680 --> 00:48:53,960
Speaker 1: fall in the top, eight it goes TO. Okc so

976
00:48:54,040 --> 00:48:56,160
Speaker 1: they know that they need to finish in the bottom.

977
00:48:56,160 --> 00:48:58,279
Speaker 1: Four so maybe you've got to work out a thing

978
00:48:58,320 --> 00:49:01,360
Speaker 1: where you don't allow trades like that where they're. Protected

979
00:49:01,719 --> 00:49:03,440
Speaker 1: you know that's going to allow teams to look at

980
00:49:03,480 --> 00:49:05,799
Speaker 1: because that the same thing With utah And. Washington they've

981
00:49:05,840 --> 00:49:08,000
Speaker 1: all got these picks that might come their way and might.

982
00:49:08,040 --> 00:49:11,759
Speaker 1: Not so you said before the, break it's. Easy you've

983
00:49:11,760 --> 00:49:15,359
Speaker 1: got an easy. Fix do you Have Adam silver's, number

984
00:49:15,360 --> 00:49:17,319
Speaker 1: because clearly it's it's not easy as far as he's.

985
00:49:17,360 --> 00:49:21,200
Speaker 2: Concerned just take just take the team that, okay you

986
00:49:22,160 --> 00:49:23,439
Speaker 2: have fourteen, slots.

987
00:49:23,520 --> 00:49:25,000
Speaker 1: Yes those fourteen lottery.

988
00:49:25,040 --> 00:49:28,720
Speaker 2: Teams, okay take the team that has the best record

989
00:49:28,719 --> 00:49:30,759
Speaker 2: that didn't make the playoffs and give them their first.

990
00:49:30,840 --> 00:49:34,839
Speaker 1: Pick, really and then what and then you go from?

991
00:49:34,880 --> 00:49:36,960
Speaker 1: There so the second best team gets the second. Pick

992
00:49:37,040 --> 00:49:39,799
Speaker 1: so if you have the worst, record you have, fifteenth then,

993
00:49:39,880 --> 00:49:45,160
Speaker 1: yep so that changed that right. There and then you find.

994
00:49:45,160 --> 00:49:46,600
Speaker 1: It and if you're not going to do then you

995
00:49:46,640 --> 00:49:50,120
Speaker 1: find them more than five hundred thousand dollars because that's. Nothing,

996
00:49:50,280 --> 00:49:52,080
Speaker 1: obviously you find.

997
00:49:52,120 --> 00:49:54,400
Speaker 2: Them and then they also they, lose they lose a

998
00:49:54,480 --> 00:49:58,640
Speaker 2: nine or two of a fan revenue coming. In no

999
00:49:58,760 --> 00:50:02,280
Speaker 2: fans allowed to come into the g because if because

1000
00:50:02,320 --> 00:50:04,520
Speaker 2: if you run to damage the game this, WAY i

1001
00:50:04,600 --> 00:50:07,520
Speaker 2: have to make you pay for, that because you're cheating the.

1002
00:50:07,520 --> 00:50:14,000
Speaker 1: Fans you're cheating the. People that's not. Right you're not

1005
00:50:17,840 --> 00:50:20,440
Speaker 2: You, know but you still asking me to pay major

1006
00:50:20,520 --> 00:50:23,399
Speaker 2: league prices for a minor league, product.

1007
00:50:23,040 --> 00:50:24,880
Speaker 1: A team that we know has no interest in playing

1008
00:50:24,880 --> 00:50:25,600
Speaker 1: basketball right?

1009
00:50:25,600 --> 00:50:28,560

1011
00:50:31,640 --> 00:50:34,520
Speaker 2: You that's what they're telling the people who are coming

1012
00:50:34,560 --> 00:50:35,200
Speaker 2: to support their.

1013
00:50:35,200 --> 00:50:38,080
Speaker 1: Product, yes and they're they're. Couching and, now Like Jared

1016
00:50:43,120 --> 00:50:45,000
Speaker 1: hasn't played yet for The. Pacers they, say, yeah he

1017
00:50:45,040 --> 00:50:47,440
Speaker 1: was playing FOR. La you, know they're they're fighting to

1018
00:50:47,440 --> 00:50:47,840
Speaker 1: get into the.

1019
00:50:47,840 --> 00:50:49,880
Speaker 2: Players they actually had a huge game against The wolves

1020
00:50:49,880 --> 00:50:51,520
Speaker 2: before they, trade because he did the night before you.

1021
00:50:51,640 --> 00:50:53,640
Speaker 1: Start he didn't need he didn't need any surgery that.

1022
00:50:53,760 --> 00:50:56,759
Speaker 1: Night he seemed pretty. Good he was moving. Okay but

1023
00:50:56,840 --> 00:50:59,399
Speaker 1: how do you tell a, team you, know prove it

1024
00:51:00,080 --> 00:51:01,439
Speaker 1: because you know what it.

1025
00:51:01,520 --> 00:51:05,000
Speaker 2: Is so now if the guy who's in, Charge Adam,

1026
00:51:05,040 --> 00:51:08,279
Speaker 2: silver who works for the, owners, right, yeah it's got

1027
00:51:08,280 --> 00:51:08,880
Speaker 2: a tough jobbing.

1028
00:51:08,880 --> 00:51:12,239
Speaker 1: Headed one texture writes in this is how you fix.

1029
00:51:12,280 --> 00:51:14,560
Speaker 1: It put every team in the draft lottery with an

1030
00:51:14,600 --> 00:51:19,960
Speaker 1: equal chance to. Win that feels a little more realistic then.

1031
00:51:20,000 --> 00:51:23,840
Speaker 1: YOU i don't hate your, way but it feels like really.

1032
00:51:23,880 --> 00:51:26,920
Speaker 1: Penals some teams might be trying hard and just aren't very,

1033
00:51:26,920 --> 00:51:29,360
Speaker 1: good aren't very. Talented you're going to give them the eleventh.

1034
00:51:29,400 --> 00:51:30,360
Speaker 1: PICK i noticed.

1035
00:51:30,400 --> 00:51:33,560
Speaker 2: That But i'm telling, you but if you are the

1036
00:51:33,640 --> 00:51:36,239
Speaker 2: best teams that don't make the, playoffs you get the

1037
00:51:36,320 --> 00:51:41,960
Speaker 2: number one. Pick it's, sick so and so if you're

1038
00:51:41,960 --> 00:51:44,160
Speaker 2: going to, tank then so if you're going to, tank

1039
00:51:44,280 --> 00:51:46,040
Speaker 2: this is where you're going to, be and we're going

1040
00:51:46,080 --> 00:51:50,080
Speaker 2: to find you on top of. It i'm not, No

1041
00:51:50,120 --> 00:51:52,200
Speaker 2: i'm not going to give you a chance to go

1042
00:51:52,239 --> 00:51:55,000
Speaker 2: into a percentage of a. Lottery but now you may

1043
00:51:55,040 --> 00:51:56,319
Speaker 2: have a chance to get a top four.

1044
00:51:56,360 --> 00:52:00,600
Speaker 1: Pick. NO i think the fatal flaw in that strategy

1045
00:52:00,760 --> 00:52:04,120
Speaker 1: is those teams will be in the play in, Situation

1046
00:52:04,320 --> 00:52:06,920
Speaker 1: so like if they're gonna want to absolutely lose the

1047
00:52:06,960 --> 00:52:08,600
Speaker 1: play in because they're gonna get the first, pick it's

1048
00:52:08,600 --> 00:52:10,000
Speaker 1: like either you win the game and get to play

1049
00:52:10,000 --> 00:52:11,840
Speaker 1: the one, seed or you lose the game and you

1050
00:52:11,840 --> 00:52:15,560
Speaker 1: have the number. One being regular, season what's what's your?

1051
00:52:15,640 --> 00:52:18,920
Speaker 1: Record if you got to if you got the worst. Record,

1052
00:52:19,000 --> 00:52:21,320
Speaker 1: mean if you so before even the play, in you're, saying,

1053
00:52:21,480 --> 00:52:25,760
Speaker 1: okay because you're you're not officially in the playoffs at that. Point,

1054
00:52:25,800 --> 00:52:28,880
Speaker 1: okay that all, right if you're not going to factor

1055
00:52:28,880 --> 00:52:30,600
Speaker 1: in the play, in, right, yeah because that would make

1056
00:52:30,600 --> 00:52:31,520
Speaker 1: the play in, ridiculous.

1057
00:52:31,680 --> 00:52:33,400
Speaker 2: Right so, YEAH i, mean So i'm going to the

1058
00:52:33,440 --> 00:52:37,000
Speaker 2: play in IF i got the number one. Pick it's

1059
00:52:37,080 --> 00:52:40,520
Speaker 2: because it's BECAUSE i can't allow you to cheat the.

1060
00:52:40,560 --> 00:52:44,560
Speaker 1: Game, SEE i. CAN'T i can't reward you for bad.

1061
00:52:44,600 --> 00:52:45,880
Speaker 1: Behavior so what.

00:53:29,239 --> 00:53:33,600
Speaker 2: Change, yeah because you you're still going to get a

1077
00:53:33,640 --> 00:53:36,400
Speaker 2: minor league price for a major league for, me a

1078
00:53:36,440 --> 00:53:37,879
Speaker 2: major league price for a minor league.

1079
00:53:37,880 --> 00:53:41,840
Speaker 1: Product that's not that's not. Right, no it's. Not you'd

1080
00:53:41,880 --> 00:53:44,040
Speaker 1: like to think, that you see what happens more often than,

1081
00:53:44,080 --> 00:53:46,680
Speaker 1: not it seems, like and just even last, Year dallas

1082
00:53:46,680 --> 00:53:48,799
Speaker 1: had a less than two percent chance to land the first.

1083
00:53:48,840 --> 00:53:51,799
Speaker 1: Pick they were not. Tanking they you could say they

1084
00:53:51,840 --> 00:53:53,880
Speaker 1: tanked by making the worst trade IN nba, history but

1085
00:53:54,680 --> 00:53:58,280
Speaker 1: they weren't actively tanking down the stretch and they lucked

1086
00:53:58,320 --> 00:54:00,759
Speaker 1: into that first. Pick now you might, say you conspiracy,

1087
00:54:00,800 --> 00:54:03,600
Speaker 1: theory THE nba figured out a way For dallas to

1088
00:54:03,680 --> 00:54:06,200
Speaker 1: Draft Cooper flag to allow that franchise to stay. Relevant

1089
00:54:06,200 --> 00:54:09,440
Speaker 1: we can go. That that's a whole different. Conversation but point,

1090
00:54:09,520 --> 00:54:12,400
Speaker 1: is there's no guarantee by being one of the worst

1091
00:54:12,520 --> 00:54:14,080
Speaker 1: four teams that you're going to get one of the

1092
00:54:14,080 --> 00:54:15,959
Speaker 1: top four. Picks and this year that's gonna.

1093
00:54:16,000 --> 00:54:17,920
Speaker 2: Matter you may get the top four, pick but doesn't

1094
00:54:17,960 --> 00:54:20,160
Speaker 2: it doesn't mean that he's going to pan out to

1095
00:54:20,239 --> 00:54:22,480
Speaker 2: lead your franchise to that's true.

1096
00:54:22,280 --> 00:54:25,960
Speaker 1: Too, right this is a year where it's really, strong

1097
00:54:26,040 --> 00:54:28,040
Speaker 1: it's perceived to be really. Strong at the top of the,

1098
00:54:28,080 --> 00:54:30,040
Speaker 1: draft the top three or four guys look to be

1099
00:54:30,520 --> 00:54:35,480
Speaker 1: potentially franchise altering type, players which makes the tanking situation

1100
00:54:35,600 --> 00:54:36,319
Speaker 1: bubble up even.

1101
00:54:36,320 --> 00:54:38,239
Speaker 2: More AND i think this should take the play in

1102
00:54:38,360 --> 00:54:41,960
Speaker 2: situation out of the. Equation the top eight teams should

1103
00:54:42,000 --> 00:54:43,960
Speaker 2: make the playoffs and leave it at.

1104
00:54:43,960 --> 00:54:47,040
Speaker 1: That, wow but there's a money situation. There if you're

1105
00:54:47,040 --> 00:54:49,160
Speaker 1: cutting the playoffs down to just half the teams that

1106
00:54:49,200 --> 00:54:51,239
Speaker 1: are now, playing the league's going to lose out on

1107
00:54:51,280 --> 00:54:54,239
Speaker 1: billions of. Dollars but at what are you losing out on? Now,

1108
00:54:54,360 --> 00:54:57,839
Speaker 1: well not that if you take. It, Yeah, no from

1109
00:54:57,920 --> 00:55:03,000
Speaker 1: a competitive entertaining, standpoint, yes you make the money.

1110
00:55:03,000 --> 00:55:06,480
Speaker 2: REGARDLESS i, mean THE nba is not. Hurting, no they're

1111
00:55:06,480 --> 00:55:10,560
Speaker 2: not closing their doors, tomorrow just making eight. Teams top

1112
00:55:10,560 --> 00:55:13,399
Speaker 2: of eight teams make the playoffs six five to. One guy,

1113
00:55:13,840 --> 00:55:15,879
Speaker 2: says here's how you hit the owners where it. Hurts

1114
00:55:15,960 --> 00:55:18,520
Speaker 2: you finished with the you finished with the four worst

1115
00:55:18,560 --> 00:55:21,120
Speaker 2: records in the, league and you're required to cut ticket

1116
00:55:21,120 --> 00:55:22,280
Speaker 2: prices in half the following.

1117
00:55:22,280 --> 00:55:25,759
Speaker 1: Season they'll feel. That, Yeah and they'll put pressure on.

1118
00:55:25,840 --> 00:55:28,719
Speaker 1: GMS i, mean you know how realistic that. Is BUT

1119
00:55:28,760 --> 00:55:30,840
Speaker 1: i like the way he's thinking or she's. THINKING i mean.

1120
00:55:30,680 --> 00:55:33,600

01:01:35,320 --> 01:01:39,200
Speaker 2: i don't See Steph curR as a point, guard not

1227
01:01:39,280 --> 01:01:44,240
Speaker 2: in the traditional sense of a point, Guard Magic, Johnson Isaiah,

1228
01:01:44,320 --> 01:01:49,760
Speaker 2: Thomas John, stockton those are traditional point. Guards Steph kurrs

1229
01:01:49,800 --> 01:01:53,000
Speaker 2: not point. Guard what about the Big I'M i Mean

1230
01:01:53,040 --> 01:01:53,920
Speaker 2: Oscar robinson.

1231
01:01:54,080 --> 01:01:55,520
Speaker 1: Was it was a real.

1232
01:01:55,600 --> 01:01:58,480
Speaker 2: Combo he was when he was with The cincinnati role

1233
01:01:59,640 --> 01:02:02,320
Speaker 2: he was the thirty point. SCORE i think one guy

1234
01:02:02,360 --> 01:02:04,439
Speaker 2: that you left off your list that should be there

1235
01:02:05,200 --> 01:02:05,800
Speaker 2: Is nate Tiny.

1236
01:02:05,880 --> 01:02:08,960
Speaker 1: Archibald you, know it's funny BECAUSE i looked at these

1237
01:02:08,960 --> 01:02:11,120
Speaker 1: lists and he was sort of in that eleven, twelve

1238
01:02:11,160 --> 01:02:12,840
Speaker 1: and a number of the LISTS i looked at he.

1239
01:02:12,920 --> 01:02:16,000
Speaker 1: Wasn't AND i thought to, myself DOUBLE t would rank him,

1240
01:02:16,040 --> 01:02:19,880
Speaker 1: higher Because i've heard you you just Love tinese. Game

1241
01:02:20,400 --> 01:02:22,840
Speaker 1: in respect to hit the. League the only point Gouse

1242
01:02:22,840 --> 01:02:24,520
Speaker 1: i've been known to lead the league in scoring and?

1243
01:02:24,600 --> 01:02:28,440
Speaker 1: Assists is, that? Right? Yeah thirty points and Eleven so

1244
01:02:28,600 --> 01:02:31,160
Speaker 1: that's probably hard to. Do if you're, scoring you're probably

1245
01:02:31,200 --> 01:02:33,760
Speaker 1: not passing as. Much, yeah you get eleven assists a

1246
01:02:33,840 --> 01:02:37,200
Speaker 1: night when it was hard to get assists back. Then

1247
01:02:38,120 --> 01:02:40,800
Speaker 1: you're gonna assist now just by sneezing on the. Floor

1248
01:02:42,440 --> 01:02:44,640
Speaker 1: so top. Five he's a top five all time point

1249
01:02:44,640 --> 01:02:47,760
Speaker 1: guard that list in terms of traditional. Points so that's your.

1250
01:02:47,800 --> 01:02:49,840
Speaker 1: Thing so you're you're Throwing steph. Out you're you don't

1251
01:02:49,840 --> 01:02:52,600
Speaker 1: Consider oscar because they they are most scoring, Guards so

1252
01:02:52,680 --> 01:02:55,360
Speaker 1: you're not considering them the prototypical point guard.

1253
01:02:55,920 --> 01:02:58,680
Speaker 2: Because Wald frazier used to WHEN i first got to The,

1254
01:02:58,760 --> 01:03:01,280
Speaker 2: knicks he used to tell me stories about Tiny.

1255
01:03:01,360 --> 01:03:03,160
Speaker 1: Archiball he.

1256
01:03:03,240 --> 01:03:06,280
Speaker 2: Said he, says he Says nate would talk to them

1257
01:03:06,320 --> 01:03:10,040
Speaker 2: on the. Floor he, Says i'm a go left and

1258
01:03:10,080 --> 01:03:12,760
Speaker 2: cross over and go right and do it and then

1259
01:03:12,840 --> 01:03:14,640
Speaker 2: do a finger row Over willis, reed and he, said

1260
01:03:14,640 --> 01:03:15,480
Speaker 2: you guys can't stop.

1261
01:03:15,520 --> 01:03:18,400
Speaker 1: Me he's right at like five eleven or six. Feet,

1262
01:03:18,520 --> 01:03:19,800

Speaker 2: uh but you're talking about, tough, gritty consistent on a nightly.

1281
01:04:15,920 --> 01:04:20,480
Speaker 2: Basis no one Gave josh Stocked in a. Chance will

1282
01:04:20,520 --> 01:04:22,920

Speaker 2: That was like he's not going to make, it and

1289
01:04:37,920 --> 01:04:40,840
Speaker 2: what he was able to do with his, CAREER i

1290
01:04:40,840 --> 01:04:42,600

1293
01:04:49,440 --> 01:04:54,120
Speaker 1: LIST i. Saw the one THAT i thought was most

1294
01:04:54,160 --> 01:04:57,320
Speaker 1: closely aligned with WHAT i agree with Was, Magic steph

1295
01:04:57,440 --> 01:05:04,080
Speaker 1: big O', West Isaiah Paul, Stockton, well he kind of

1296
01:05:04,280 --> 01:05:07,240
Speaker 1: was though he was a Score he, scored but he

1297
01:05:07,280 --> 01:05:09,720
Speaker 1: also ran the he brought the ball down the. Court.

1298
01:05:09,760 --> 01:05:13,520
Speaker 1: MAN i don't know Good rich was a scorer, too he.

1299
01:05:13,600 --> 01:05:16,200
Speaker 1: Wasn't but BUT i just say point.

1300
01:05:16,200 --> 01:05:19,000
Speaker 2: Guards i'm looking at traditional point guards in the sense

1301
01:05:19,040 --> 01:05:20,920
Speaker 2: of what a point, guard what a point guard.

1302
01:05:20,720 --> 01:05:25,920
Speaker 1: Plast, first run the, floor, General, Josh Josh, Stockton Isaiah.

1303
01:05:25,960 --> 01:05:28,160
Speaker 1: Thomas those are MORE i would agree they are more

1304
01:05:28,160 --> 01:05:30,840
Speaker 1: prototypical point. Guards And Steph. Curry But Steph curry is

1305
01:05:30,880 --> 01:05:32,680
Speaker 1: going to be considered a point guard when he's all,

1306
01:05:32,720 --> 01:05:34,720
Speaker 1: said and that's What Chris paul. Was Chris paul was

1307
01:05:34,720 --> 01:05:35,959
Speaker 1: a point. Guard who's the point?

1308
01:05:36,000 --> 01:05:39,280
Speaker 2: God, Yeah and SO i don't SEE i See steph

1309
01:05:39,360 --> 01:05:43,880
Speaker 2: as A i SEE i See steph is as a

1310
01:05:43,960 --> 01:05:46,360
Speaker 2: shooter that can handle the basketball very.

1311
01:05:46,360 --> 01:05:48,320
Speaker 1: Well and.

1312
01:05:49,800 --> 01:05:53,360
Speaker 2: Today's game Fits Steph curry. PERFECTLY i don't know If

1313
01:05:53,360 --> 01:05:55,560
Speaker 2: Steph curry back in the day may have been this.

1314
01:05:55,720 --> 01:05:59,680
Speaker 2: Way it is BECAUSE i don't know how many coaches

1315
01:05:59,720 --> 01:06:03,080
Speaker 2: with a allow him to play this. One, See Steph

1316
01:06:03,200 --> 01:06:09,400
Speaker 2: curry went to the right, Guy Mark. Jackson Mark jackson

1317
01:06:09,480 --> 01:06:11,200
Speaker 2: had the right guy for him when he came.

1318
01:06:11,160 --> 01:06:15,200
Speaker 1: Into the, League Rick. Patino so when you.

1319
01:06:15,120 --> 01:06:19,760
Speaker 2: Get that right guy as your head coach who was

1320
01:06:19,800 --> 01:06:22,920
Speaker 2: going to allow you and build a program around what

1321
01:06:23,040 --> 01:06:25,760
Speaker 2: you do, best that's when you.

1322
01:06:25,840 --> 01:06:29,120
Speaker 1: Excel thank. Goodness could you imagine being deprived Of steph's?

1323
01:06:29,120 --> 01:06:30,080
Speaker 1: Greatness thank?

1324
01:06:30,080 --> 01:06:32,960
Speaker 2: You but for the first seven, Years Steph curry couldn't stay. Healthy,

1325
01:06:32,920 --> 01:06:37,760
Speaker 2: yeah it's. True But Mark jackson at that time created

1326
01:06:37,800 --> 01:06:43,520
Speaker 2: a system that Allows Steph curry And Klay thompson to

1327
01:06:43,600 --> 01:06:47,560
Speaker 2: do what they did. Best and so When Rick patino

1328
01:06:47,680 --> 01:06:50,640
Speaker 2: took over with The, knicks he changed the whole system

1329
01:06:50,680 --> 01:06:55,600
Speaker 2: on how we. Played And Mark jackson was a perfect

1330
01:06:55,800 --> 01:07:00,320
Speaker 2: was the perfect point guard For Rick. Patino and and

1331
01:07:00,360 --> 01:07:03,760
Speaker 2: it was great because you, Know Action, jackson you, know was.

1332
01:07:04,640 --> 01:07:06,520
Speaker 2: Flamborne he had to you, know he had to, style

1333
01:07:06,720 --> 01:07:09,320
Speaker 2: he had to flare In New York, city but also

1334
01:07:09,400 --> 01:07:09,760
Speaker 2: he had.

1335
01:07:09,680 --> 01:07:10,720
Speaker 1: The game to go along with.

1336
01:07:10,760 --> 01:07:12,880
Speaker 2: It so if you put him in a traditional sense

1337
01:07:12,880 --> 01:07:15,120
Speaker 2: where he had to walk the ball to floor and

1338
01:07:15,200 --> 01:07:17,080
Speaker 2: pass that when they were For Mark.

1339
01:07:17,120 --> 01:07:19,800
Speaker 1: JACKSON i don't Remember Mark jackson being Called Action Jackson.

1340
01:07:20,280 --> 01:07:22,440
Speaker 1: Jackson was that just your little pet name for him

1341
01:07:22,640 --> 01:07:24,880
Speaker 1: we called? Him, yeah, Okay i've never heard you call

1342
01:07:24,920 --> 01:07:28,400
Speaker 1: him that. Before, yeah last bit for, you because you,

1343
01:07:28,480 --> 01:07:32,200
Speaker 1: know you gotta. Fly Adam silver talked about. Expansion it's

1344
01:07:32,200 --> 01:07:35,320
Speaker 1: going to get more conversations this. Summer made it clear

1345
01:07:35,320 --> 01:07:37,800
Speaker 1: That seattle In Las vegas looked like the two teams

1346
01:07:37,840 --> 01:07:41,320
Speaker 1: that would be, added that they're not looking to relocate Like,

1347
01:07:41,440 --> 01:07:44,480
Speaker 1: memphis for, Example they've got a building situation coming and

1348
01:07:44,520 --> 01:07:46,960
Speaker 1: that might Be Both memphis And New orleans are considered

1349
01:07:47,000 --> 01:07:49,720
Speaker 1: teams that might be looking to. Relocate but he made

1350
01:07:49,720 --> 01:07:51,320
Speaker 1: it clear they want to add two teams to get

1351
01:07:51,320 --> 01:07:54,280
Speaker 1: to thirty two a little more, symmetrical sixteen in each,

1352
01:07:54,320 --> 01:07:57,400
Speaker 1: conference eight and, eight you, know whatever in the. Divisions,

1353
01:07:57,400 --> 01:07:59,040
Speaker 1: however they're going to work that, out change that all.

1354
01:07:59,120 --> 01:08:01,920
Speaker 1: Up that, happens one team from The west is going

1355
01:08:02,000 --> 01:08:04,760
Speaker 1: to have to move to the, east and the three

1356
01:08:04,960 --> 01:08:09,720
Speaker 1: cities most prominently mentioned Are, Minnesota New, orleans And. Memphis

1357
01:08:09,720 --> 01:08:11,000
Speaker 1: the other two teams that are in a bit of.

1358
01:08:11,000 --> 01:08:13,640
Speaker 1: TROUBLE i THINK i speak for All wolves fans that

1359
01:08:13,640 --> 01:08:16,640
Speaker 1: we would happily volunteer to move to The east and

1360
01:08:16,680 --> 01:08:20,479
Speaker 1: have some more natural rivalries with teams Like, Detroit, Chicago

1361
01:08:20,560 --> 01:08:24,439
Speaker 1: milwaukee that are more central to this. Region you can

1362
01:08:24,520 --> 01:08:27,680
Speaker 1: make a case For memphis And New, Orleans Abbott and

1363
01:08:27,680 --> 01:08:30,559
Speaker 1: now yesterday we're doing some geography like who's actually the Furthest,

1364
01:08:30,560 --> 01:08:32,720
Speaker 1: west and he Mentioned, Okay c's kind of in the

1365
01:08:32,720 --> 01:08:38,439
Speaker 1: middle there. Too we know that The west traditionally is

1366
01:08:38,479 --> 01:08:40,400
Speaker 1: a stronger conference in The. East it's not just this,

1367
01:08:40,520 --> 01:08:44,080
Speaker 1: Year it's been that way for. Decades, yeah it might

1368
01:08:44,160 --> 01:08:46,800
Speaker 1: change someday where The east becomes a, dominant BUT i

1369
01:08:46,840 --> 01:08:48,760
Speaker 1: think as we look at the next, five, six, seven

1370
01:08:48,760 --> 01:08:50,639
Speaker 1: eight years in, PARTICULAR i don't think The west is going,

1371
01:08:50,680 --> 01:08:54,000
Speaker 1: Anywhere especially WITH okac And San antonio looking to have,

1372
01:08:54,200 --> 01:08:55,880
Speaker 1: rosters they are going to stick around for a. While

1373
01:08:57,240 --> 01:08:59,360
Speaker 1: would you be on board with A wolves move to

1374
01:08:59,400 --> 01:09:01,280
Speaker 1: The Eastern conference in a Few, again this will be

1375
01:09:01,320 --> 01:09:03,519
Speaker 1: a few years. Away you, know if they announced the

1376
01:09:03,840 --> 01:09:06,320
Speaker 1: expansion teams even this year or next, year you're a

1377
01:09:06,360 --> 01:09:08,360
Speaker 1: couple of years away from it actually. Happening so this

1378
01:09:08,439 --> 01:09:11,439
Speaker 1: is not something suddenly going to. Happen BUT i love

1379
01:09:11,479 --> 01:09:14,200
Speaker 1: the idea of The wolves moving to The Eastern. Conference let's,

1380
01:09:14,240 --> 01:09:17,080
Speaker 1: Go so they go to The Central. Division, yeah they

1381
01:09:17,120 --> 01:09:19,639
Speaker 1: may change the divisions a little, bit, yeah but likely

1382
01:09:22,080 --> 01:09:23,760
Speaker 1: just like you know how we see in football those

1383
01:09:23,800 --> 01:09:27,439
Speaker 1: same cities that are all kind of, together even baseball time,

1384
01:09:27,520 --> 01:09:31,320
Speaker 1: ZONE i think They're. Central, OKAY i think for some,

1385
01:09:31,400 --> 01:09:33,280
Speaker 1: REASON i Think. MEMPHIS i don't. Know maybe it's one

1386
01:09:33,280 --> 01:09:34,840
Speaker 1: of those where they switched during the. YEAR i don't,

1387
01:09:34,880 --> 01:09:38,080
Speaker 1: know but they're all virtually. IDENTICAL i think you could

1388
01:09:38,080 --> 01:09:40,800
Speaker 1: make a case for all of. Them BUT i do

1389
01:09:40,920 --> 01:09:43,400
Speaker 1: like that. IDEA i was also thinking about And jackson

1390
01:09:43,439 --> 01:09:45,880
Speaker 1: AND i were talking about it. Yesterday you, know if

1391
01:09:45,880 --> 01:09:47,760
Speaker 1: there was an expansion draft this, year like if the

1392
01:09:47,760 --> 01:09:50,800
Speaker 1: teams are coming in and so every team could protect eight,

1393
01:09:50,800 --> 01:09:53,760
Speaker 1: PLAYERS i think The wolves will be in pretty good.

1394
01:09:53,760 --> 01:09:56,400
Speaker 1: Shape you, know they've got a solid eight. Guys they

1395
01:09:56,439 --> 01:09:59,720
Speaker 1: could protect the five, starters, right and then the new

1396
01:09:59,800 --> 01:10:02,800
Speaker 1: kid you get From, Chicago, yeah you're to sign, him

1397
01:10:04,120 --> 01:10:07,160
Speaker 1: so Be nasdsumu and Probably. Baronja. Right you don't want

1398
01:10:07,200 --> 01:10:09,920
Speaker 1: to lose your your young center of the. Future so

1399
01:10:10,240 --> 01:10:12,360
Speaker 1: that to me feels like a solid. Eight so who

1400
01:10:12,400 --> 01:10:17,120
Speaker 1: would you be putting up for potential EXPANSION Tj. Shannon you,

1401
01:10:17,160 --> 01:10:20,440
Speaker 1: know Maybe Jalen. CLARK i mean there's not a. Yeah

1402
01:10:20,479 --> 01:10:23,240
Speaker 1: maybe they Covet Rocco. Zakarski you want to take him

1403
01:10:23,240 --> 01:10:25,280
Speaker 1: off The wolves. ENDS i just think The wolves would

1404
01:10:25,280 --> 01:10:27,920
Speaker 1: be set up right now as the team is put.

1405
01:10:27,960 --> 01:10:29,800
Speaker 1: Together it wouldn't hurt them too. Much you don't want

1406
01:10:29,800 --> 01:10:32,799
Speaker 1: to Lose shannon or somebody like. That somebody mentioned, yesterday

1407
01:10:32,800 --> 01:10:36,599
Speaker 1: maybe they would Put rudy, available like Keep shannon and

1408
01:10:36,600 --> 01:10:38,800
Speaker 1: Make rudy, available thinking are they going to want a

1409
01:10:38,840 --> 01:10:42,680
Speaker 1: thirty three thirty four year, old highly compensated center to

1410
01:10:42,800 --> 01:10:44,960
Speaker 1: join their expansion. Team maybe they would pass On Rudy

1411
01:10:44,960 --> 01:10:47,000
Speaker 1: and now you Protect spas, team they probably. Would you

1412
01:10:47,520 --> 01:10:50,439
Speaker 1: think they would pass or take. Him, Yeah so that

1413
01:10:50,520 --> 01:10:52,760
Speaker 1: might be the strategies that teams are going to have to.

1414
01:10:52,800 --> 01:10:55,800
Speaker 1: Employ right do you put one of your, veteran high

1415
01:10:55,880 --> 01:10:58,720
Speaker 1: paid players thinking they're not going to want, him but you,

1416
01:10:58,760 --> 01:11:00,200
Speaker 1: know all of a sudden they take. Him, yeah because

1417
01:11:00,280 --> 01:11:01,960
Speaker 1: you're gonna have to have a couple of name players

1418
01:11:02,000 --> 01:11:05,120
Speaker 1: to get your. Fancas what do we do? Now? Right exactly?

1419
01:11:06,080 --> 01:11:09,639
Speaker 1: Right If rudy's gone, Suddenly now it's The, Baron jay

1420
01:11:09,680 --> 01:11:12,439
Speaker 1: And Rocco. Show let's see if those guys are. Ready all,

Speaker 1: fuller from eleven to noon, today and then it's college.

1439
01:12:31,280 --> 01:12:34,680
Speaker 1: BASKETBALL I You illinois you know what that means At

1440
01:12:34,720 --> 01:12:37,639
Speaker 1: sinnecon against Lavell, our two schools going head to head

1441
01:12:37,640 --> 01:12:41,160
Speaker 1: In Champagne lavelle. O'Neil i don't love the idea of

1442
01:12:41,160 --> 01:12:45,040
Speaker 1: My hoosiers heading down to your assembly hall to face an,

1443
01:12:45,160 --> 01:12:49,120
Speaker 1: ornery frustrated align it team somehow riding a two game losing.

1444
01:12:49,160 --> 01:12:53,240
Speaker 1: Streak carnage might ensue. Today from my, Standpoint.

1445
01:12:53,560 --> 01:12:56,720
Speaker 5: I'm called this a guarantee win, actually because they went

1446
01:12:56,760 --> 01:13:00,200
Speaker 5: To Michigan state and lost in a thrilling overtime which

1447
01:13:00,240 --> 01:13:01,800
Speaker 5: they led and had a chance to close that.

1448
01:13:01,840 --> 01:13:03,000
Speaker 3: Game, out was unable to do.

1449
01:13:03,040 --> 01:13:08,519
Speaker 5: It and then they came home to play that other

1450
01:13:08,600 --> 01:13:12,599
Speaker 5: team across the border and lost know the overtime game

1451
01:13:12,640 --> 01:13:15,000
Speaker 5: that so they should be, pissed they should be, upset

1452
01:13:15,160 --> 01:13:17,479
Speaker 5: they should be. Angry they had risen up to five

1453
01:13:17,560 --> 01:13:20,559
Speaker 5: in the national. Polls they're training. RIGHT i think they

1454
01:13:20,600 --> 01:13:24,040
Speaker 5: have won like twelve or thirty consecutive, games AND i

1455
01:13:24,040 --> 01:13:25,880
Speaker 5: think they're going to take out their frustrations on The

1456
01:13:25,920 --> 01:13:29,320
Speaker 5: Indiana hoosia's team, that IF i, believe is unranked and

1457
01:13:29,439 --> 01:13:32,680
Speaker 5: not as formidable as the previous two.

1458
01:13:32,720 --> 01:13:33,840
Speaker 3: Opponents, no they're.

1459
01:13:33,920 --> 01:13:36,240
Speaker 1: Not they've won a few games of. Late they got

1460
01:13:36,280 --> 01:13:38,280
Speaker 1: to go To purdue, next so this is the meaty

1461
01:13:38,360 --> 01:13:40,400
Speaker 1: part of their, schedule this road. TRIP i think both

1462
01:13:40,400 --> 01:13:43,760
Speaker 1: of our teams they'll have have players that WHEN i

1463
01:13:43,800 --> 01:13:46,320
Speaker 1: guess If indiana gets Into March, madness and it's no,

1464
01:13:46,400 --> 01:13:48,760
Speaker 1: guarantee but if they, DO i think both of our

1465
01:13:48,760 --> 01:13:51,640
Speaker 1: teams have players that can just light it up and

1466
01:13:52,040 --> 01:13:55,840
Speaker 1: be a problem In For Indiana's Lamar. Wilkerson for your,

1467
01:13:55,880 --> 01:13:59,360
Speaker 1: team It's, woggler who we've seen him throw up forty

1468
01:13:59,360 --> 01:14:02,080
Speaker 1: points just Like wilkerson. Has it's fun to have a

1469
01:14:02,080 --> 01:14:04,360
Speaker 1: team like that that's got a player that can just go,

1470
01:14:04,520 --> 01:14:08,240
Speaker 1: crazy because Come March, madness anything can, happen and that

1471
01:14:08,320 --> 01:14:11,280
Speaker 1: kid could carry THE aligni very. DEEP i Think illinois

1472
01:14:11,280 --> 01:14:14,320
Speaker 1: does Have final four. POTENTIAL i, think.

1473
01:14:14,200 --> 01:14:17,360
Speaker 5: WELL i like the chanser they get to the regional, finals

1474
01:14:18,240 --> 01:14:20,920
Speaker 5: we'll See Keaton woggler that it's been.

1475
01:14:20,960 --> 01:14:22,160
Speaker 3: CRAZY i didn't know anything about.

1476
01:14:22,240 --> 01:14:24,559
Speaker 5: Him he's a kid from like Suburban Kansas city WHERE

1477
01:14:24,600 --> 01:14:26,240
Speaker 5: i used to work at worked for A kansay start

1478
01:14:26,320 --> 01:14:30,320
Speaker 5: for like a nine, years and he came, in you,

1479
01:14:30,320 --> 01:14:33,320
Speaker 5: know trying to find his way and think about any

1480
01:14:33,400 --> 01:14:35,960
Speaker 5: one thing about the little offis is that as much

1481
01:14:35,960 --> 01:14:42,440
Speaker 5: AS i like the versatility and How underwood loves positions,

1482
01:14:42,479 --> 01:14:44,720
Speaker 5: basketball he likes having a bunch of sixty five to

1483
01:14:44,800 --> 01:14:48,000
Speaker 5: six eight guys who can play inside and outside.

1484
01:14:47,640 --> 01:14:48,880
Speaker 3: And play defense and shoot.

1485
01:14:48,880 --> 01:14:51,760
Speaker 5: Threes he don't really have a true point, guard So

1486
01:14:51,800 --> 01:14:54,439
Speaker 5: wogglers ended up being like the facto guy to bring

1487
01:14:54,439 --> 01:14:55,400
Speaker 5: the ball up initiate the.

1488
01:14:55,439 --> 01:14:57,040
Speaker 3: Offense but the kid is a.

1489
01:14:57,080 --> 01:15:00,840
Speaker 5: Shooter he is a shooter with beyonlind three point line,

1490
01:15:00,920 --> 01:15:05,040
Speaker 5: range you can from thirty feet, out and that's been

1491
01:15:05,200 --> 01:15:08,839
Speaker 5: very impressive to watch him. Develop but so you mentioned

1492
01:15:08,840 --> 01:15:11,680
Speaker 5: final four. Material my worry is that this has been

1493
01:15:11,680 --> 01:15:13,840
Speaker 5: going on for the last two three. Years brad On't

1494
01:15:13,840 --> 01:15:15,840
Speaker 5: newood does not have a two point guard on that

1495
01:15:15,960 --> 01:15:18,439
Speaker 5: roster right now that he can he can trust minutes.

1496
01:15:18,439 --> 01:15:21,280
Speaker 5: TOO i think that's gonna come and Bite illinois in

1497
01:15:21,320 --> 01:15:23,880
Speaker 5: their rear end when it gets to crunch time in

1498
01:15:23,960 --> 01:15:24,639
Speaker 5: some of these big time.

1499
01:15:24,680 --> 01:15:27,960
Speaker 3: Games but they have they have, going they.

1500
01:15:27,800 --> 01:15:30,800
Speaker 5: Have, defense they have two seven footers and it's his,

1501
01:15:30,920 --> 01:15:34,880
Speaker 5: brothers so their shop, blocking room, protecting and both those

1502
01:15:34,880 --> 01:15:38,320
Speaker 5: got to shoot. Threes so it's a it's a it's

1503
01:15:38,320 --> 01:15:40,400
Speaker 5: a very interesting. LINEUP i just think at the. End

1504
01:15:40,800 --> 01:15:43,840
Speaker 5: they need, that they need the orchestrator on the. Court

1505
01:15:44,120 --> 01:15:46,599
Speaker 5: they kind of make it all, click AND i think

1506
01:15:46,640 --> 01:15:48,360
Speaker 5: that's what gets them in trouble laying.

1507
01:15:48,400 --> 01:15:50,880
Speaker 1: Games, yeah it's an interesting. Point and Come March madness,

1508
01:15:51,000 --> 01:15:52,760
Speaker 1: time when you get, deep you do need that floor

1509
01:15:52,880 --> 01:15:55,720
Speaker 1: general to setle you down when things get. Tight all,

1518
01:16:20,560 --> 01:16:22,680

1520
01:16:25,120 --> 01:16:26,720

01:16:46,800 --> 01:16:49,599
Speaker 5: tournament so far that's shooting better than them from a percentage,

1529
01:16:49,840 --> 01:16:52,120
Speaker 5: standpoint and it looked, like you, Know china was going

1530
01:16:52,200 --> 01:16:55,439
Speaker 5: to have the upper, hand but THE uk women MADE

1531
01:16:56,320 --> 01:16:58,920
Speaker 5: i don't want to say unbelievable come, back but it

1532
01:16:58,960 --> 01:17:00,920
Speaker 5: was a very impressive come back because they were down

1533
01:17:01,360 --> 01:17:03,400
Speaker 5: And china had to hammer in both the nineth and

1534
01:17:03,479 --> 01:17:06,320
Speaker 5: tenth ends and The United states stole points in each

1535
01:17:07,120 --> 01:17:09,559
Speaker 5: and one in the night to tie and one an

1536
01:17:09,560 --> 01:17:12,400
Speaker 5: attempt to win to improve the four to one pool.

1537
01:17:12,400 --> 01:17:16,400
Speaker 5: Play and usually in these ten team round pool play,

1538
01:17:16,560 --> 01:17:18,960
Speaker 5: situations if you can get the six, wins you're going

1539
01:17:19,000 --> 01:17:20,640
Speaker 5: to the semi, final so you're in the go Met a.

1540
01:17:20,680 --> 01:17:23,280
Speaker 5: Round and now The United states women are just two

1541
01:17:23,320 --> 01:17:26,720
Speaker 5: wins away from getting the six, wins which will make

1542
01:17:26,760 --> 01:17:30,400
Speaker 5: them a lock to play for.

1543
01:17:30,400 --> 01:17:33,360
