I didn't. 24 00:01:01,600 --> 00:01:03,280 Speaker 1: I didn't forget about Ruis. But come on, man, I 25 00:01:03,280 --> 00:01:05,600 Speaker 1: mean Ted, You're doing more than tied. Max Miller's gonna 26 00:01:05,640 --> 00:01:08,720 Speaker 1: join us. He's he's got a he's a contributor to 27 00:01:08,840 --> 00:01:11,080 Speaker 1: to NHL dot com and he does a lot of audio. 28 00:01:11,080 --> 00:01:12,360 Speaker 1: You've had him on as a gas he dies some 29 00:01:12,440 --> 00:01:14,959 Speaker 1: riding and he's done stuff with that with serious except 30 00:01:14,959 --> 00:01:17,880 Speaker 1: their NHL channel as well. So he's a San Jose guy, 31 00:01:18,000 --> 00:01:20,520 Speaker 1: San Jose State native, or a lum. I should say 32 00:01:20,680 --> 00:01:23,080 Speaker 1: he'll come buy three fifteen talks about some Sharks with us. 33 00:01:23,200 --> 00:01:26,000 Speaker 1: Ryan Warsovski, head coach of the Sharks, probably our last 34 00:01:26,160 --> 00:01:28,920 Speaker 1: conversation with him of the regular season. Seven games to go? 35 00:01:29,400 --> 00:01:31,000 Speaker 1: Is that where I'm at right now? Seven games to 36 00:01:31,000 --> 00:01:32,880 Speaker 1: play for the Sharks? A couple of points back at 37 00:01:32,880 --> 00:01:35,720 Speaker 1: that last playoff spot and then Susan Slusser at five 38 00:01:35,760 --> 00:01:38,680 Speaker 1: point fifteen. Ted, When you think about this weekend in 39 00:01:38,720 --> 00:01:41,640 Speaker 1: Bay Area sports, what stands out the most is it? 40 00:01:41,680 --> 00:01:43,680 Speaker 1: Is it the Giants dropping three or four and all 41 00:01:43,680 --> 00:01:46,880 Speaker 1: three over the weekend to the Mets and really just 42 00:01:46,920 --> 00:01:49,480 Speaker 1: getting shellacked when it comes to putting up runs in 43 00:01:49,560 --> 00:01:52,080 Speaker 1: terms of their run differential. Is it the return of 44 00:01:52,080 --> 00:01:55,000 Speaker 1: Steph Curry? Is it the devastating I would say, sort 45 00:01:55,000 --> 00:01:57,520 Speaker 1: of a gut punch loss for the Sharks on Saturday 46 00:01:57,520 --> 00:01:59,520 Speaker 1: that was a hell of a game and really a 47 00:01:59,560 --> 00:02:03,120 Speaker 1: big meeting against Nashville that they ultimately lose six to three. 48 00:02:03,160 --> 00:02:05,960 Speaker 2: The score not indicative, no, not indicative, but you start 49 00:02:05,960 --> 00:02:08,080 Speaker 2: off three nothing in that game. But to me, the 50 00:02:08,120 --> 00:02:10,880 Speaker 2: one that kind of is the most of an affirmation 51 00:02:11,000 --> 00:02:14,680 Speaker 2: about where a franchise is is the Warriors with Steph Curry, 52 00:02:14,680 --> 00:02:17,080 Speaker 2: because he showed that he can come back like that's 53 00:02:17,080 --> 00:02:19,720 Speaker 2: his floor, imagine what his ceiling is. He hasn't played 54 00:02:19,720 --> 00:02:22,520 Speaker 2: in forever, comes back and looks exactly like Steph Curry 55 00:02:22,520 --> 00:02:25,079 Speaker 2: that is capable of being an MVP. But that's more 56 00:02:25,120 --> 00:02:27,919 Speaker 2: of a exactly what we expected it to be. The 57 00:02:27,960 --> 00:02:30,399 Speaker 2: most concerning thing to me, though, is the Giants. After 58 00:02:30,440 --> 00:02:32,359 Speaker 2: you think things are gonna get rolling in a nice way, 59 00:02:32,400 --> 00:02:35,200 Speaker 2: after the way they play Friday night, is the rest 60 00:02:35,240 --> 00:02:38,920 Speaker 2: of the way that series goes and you just doesn't 61 00:02:38,960 --> 00:02:40,920 Speaker 2: make you feel very good right now about that franchise. 62 00:02:40,960 --> 00:02:42,880 Speaker 2: And I know we're early, I know there's a lot 63 00:02:42,919 --> 00:02:45,399 Speaker 2: of baseball left to play, but there is a lot 64 00:02:45,400 --> 00:02:47,760 Speaker 2: of rhyme that I'm feeling about their game right now 65 00:02:47,760 --> 00:02:50,560 Speaker 2: compared to what I've seen in recent Giants baseball memory. 66 00:02:50,639 --> 00:02:52,840 Speaker 1: Yeah, Giants for sure the most frustrating to me, because 67 00:02:52,880 --> 00:02:55,520 Speaker 1: the show it's like they're still excitement here. There's still 68 00:02:55,560 --> 00:02:58,359 Speaker 1: seven to play. There three left at home tonight Wednesday, 69 00:02:59,320 --> 00:03:01,079 Speaker 1: and then they go on the road for one, back 70 00:03:01,120 --> 00:03:02,880 Speaker 1: home for one, and then they finished the season three 71 00:03:02,919 --> 00:03:04,520 Speaker 1: in a row on there three and four days. So 72 00:03:04,720 --> 00:03:08,160 Speaker 1: we've got a real playoff like scoreboard watching, playoff hunt 73 00:03:08,160 --> 00:03:10,200 Speaker 1: type fing going with the Sharks. So while that was 74 00:03:10,200 --> 00:03:12,320 Speaker 1: a big loss because it would have helped solidify where 75 00:03:12,320 --> 00:03:15,720 Speaker 1: they're going, it also would have ended a fourteen game 76 00:03:15,800 --> 00:03:18,480 Speaker 1: and now up to fifteen game losing streak against Nashville. 77 00:03:18,560 --> 00:03:21,000 Speaker 2: Nashville has an incredible run. Yeah, they really have the 78 00:03:21,000 --> 00:03:22,960 Speaker 2: Shark's number. You know, another team that always plays the 79 00:03:22,960 --> 00:03:24,880 Speaker 2: Sharks really really well, even when they were really bad 80 00:03:24,880 --> 00:03:27,240 Speaker 2: as Buffalo, They'll come in here and beat the Sharks. 81 00:03:27,240 --> 00:03:28,680 Speaker 2: Even when the Sharks were with their top there's just 82 00:03:28,720 --> 00:03:31,600 Speaker 2: some teams where they just play well against the opposition, 83 00:03:31,680 --> 00:03:34,440 Speaker 2: never makes any sense. So that's something the Sharks. But 84 00:03:34,520 --> 00:03:36,240 Speaker 2: if you look at it, you remember when the Warriors 85 00:03:36,280 --> 00:03:37,840 Speaker 2: had to get past the Clippers, or the Warriors had 86 00:03:37,840 --> 00:03:38,720 Speaker 2: to get back to the Sippers. 87 00:03:39,120 --> 00:03:41,600 Speaker 1: It's like, sometimes you got to make that climb. 88 00:03:41,320 --> 00:03:42,720 Speaker 2: To where you get past them, and that's part of 89 00:03:42,760 --> 00:03:45,520 Speaker 2: the narrative of them making that ascension. So yeah, Nashville 90 00:03:45,560 --> 00:03:48,520 Speaker 2: has had the Sharks number right now, so it's it's frustrating, 91 00:03:48,520 --> 00:03:50,920 Speaker 2: but still there's games stuff to play. This is a 92 00:03:50,920 --> 00:03:54,360 Speaker 2: game seventy six tonight for San Jose. They have four 93 00:03:54,440 --> 00:03:57,360 Speaker 2: this week and then three next week. They start start off, 94 00:03:58,160 --> 00:04:00,880 Speaker 2: you know here home for this final stre and they've 95 00:04:00,880 --> 00:04:04,400 Speaker 2: got a home and away Wednesday Thursday against Edmonton and 96 00:04:04,440 --> 00:04:08,040 Speaker 2: then against at Anaheim. Then they host Vancouver on Saturday night. 97 00:04:08,280 --> 00:04:10,440 Speaker 2: Then it's three on the road to finish off the year. 98 00:04:10,560 --> 00:04:12,920 Speaker 2: So it's it's gonna be very, very busy from here 99 00:04:12,960 --> 00:04:16,320 Speaker 2: on out, but it is it's very entertaining to see 100 00:04:16,320 --> 00:04:18,159 Speaker 2: them in this opportunity because we go back to October. 101 00:04:18,240 --> 00:04:19,320 Speaker 2: Nobody thinks the Sharks are here. 102 00:04:19,400 --> 00:04:21,760 Speaker 1: I was like, dude, fifteenth straight against Nashville, which, by 103 00:04:21,760 --> 00:04:24,200 Speaker 1: the way, is a franchise record for them, most consecutive 104 00:04:24,240 --> 00:04:26,320 Speaker 1: wins against any team ever. And I was like, at 105 00:04:26,400 --> 00:04:27,960 Speaker 1: least we're done with them, No, get to see them. 106 00:04:28,320 --> 00:04:30,159 Speaker 1: Get to see him next week, next Monday. Week from today, 107 00:04:30,200 --> 00:04:32,839 Speaker 1: they'll be at Nashville and to start the three the 108 00:04:32,880 --> 00:04:35,400 Speaker 1: first of three road games to wrap up the twenty 109 00:04:35,440 --> 00:04:37,480 Speaker 1: twenty five twenty six seasons. So I got this Shark's 110 00:04:37,520 --> 00:04:39,400 Speaker 1: hat on right now. It looks good. Yeah. Tim gave 111 00:04:39,400 --> 00:04:41,720 Speaker 1: it today for Christmas. First time I ever took it 112 00:04:41,720 --> 00:04:45,279 Speaker 1: out of the packaging this morning. Nice. Yeah, safe. Yeah. Well, 113 00:04:45,560 --> 00:04:46,840 Speaker 1: I sort of felt like it was one of those 114 00:04:46,839 --> 00:04:50,000 Speaker 1: situations where like Grandma's coming to town, so you had like, 115 00:04:50,000 --> 00:04:51,839 Speaker 1: if Tim weren't here, would I be wearing the hat. 116 00:04:52,000 --> 00:04:53,920 Speaker 1: It's like a sweatshirt that's gotta lion knitted on. And 117 00:04:54,440 --> 00:04:56,479 Speaker 1: it's like, if Grandma's coming to town, your your mom's like, 118 00:04:56,520 --> 00:04:58,640 Speaker 1: you gotta wear the sweater that grandma gave you, so 119 00:04:58,680 --> 00:05:00,480 Speaker 1: then she knows you where it's warm. 120 00:05:00,520 --> 00:05:03,280 Speaker 2: Though, even if it's stylistically lacking, the sweater would be warm. Yeah, 121 00:05:03,279 --> 00:05:06,560 Speaker 2: this sweater would be or itchy, itchy too, but warm. 122 00:05:06,600 --> 00:05:08,680 Speaker 1: Nonetheless, did your parents make you do that? Like grandma 123 00:05:08,760 --> 00:05:10,240 Speaker 1: gave you this? I don't think. 124 00:05:10,279 --> 00:05:12,600 Speaker 2: I can't remember anything specifically like that off the top 125 00:05:12,600 --> 00:05:14,359 Speaker 2: of my head, but I sure they would have. 126 00:05:14,560 --> 00:05:16,760 Speaker 1: My grandma would like my grandma would knit us quilt. 127 00:05:16,760 --> 00:05:19,000 Speaker 1: So that's I mean those are now they're like family airly. Yeah, 128 00:05:19,120 --> 00:05:21,160 Speaker 1: that's pretty sweet. That's sweet because it's like you always want. 129 00:05:21,240 --> 00:05:22,919 Speaker 1: And my grandma used to do it out of like 130 00:05:23,000 --> 00:05:24,680 Speaker 1: old T shirts, you know what I mean. She she 131 00:05:24,839 --> 00:05:26,800 Speaker 1: designed it so you get like there's like a flash 132 00:05:26,839 --> 00:05:28,840 Speaker 1: T shirt on water. There's like a beer festival one. 133 00:05:28,880 --> 00:05:30,680 Speaker 1: It's like the Dolly part and code of many color. 134 00:05:30,880 --> 00:05:33,200 Speaker 1: It's pretty cool. So my grandma and she did, and dude, 135 00:05:33,240 --> 00:05:34,560 Speaker 1: all of us have one. Some of us have our 136 00:05:34,600 --> 00:05:36,599 Speaker 1: name stitching it that my grandma did for us before 137 00:05:36,640 --> 00:05:39,080 Speaker 1: she passed years ago. And then my other grandma this 138 00:05:39,200 --> 00:05:41,840 Speaker 1: was this was a crock. I hated this. This is 139 00:05:41,880 --> 00:05:44,040 Speaker 1: the worst gift. There's one thing like when you're a kid, 140 00:05:44,080 --> 00:05:46,360 Speaker 1: you know, like getting clothes, but I remember getting older 141 00:05:46,400 --> 00:05:49,120 Speaker 1: and being like closes closer. I love. That's awesome you 142 00:05:49,160 --> 00:05:51,320 Speaker 1: get stuff, especially like you get to college age.

All that stuff was great because it's stuff 146 00:05:57,040 --> 00:05:59,360 Speaker 1: you wouldn't buy for yourself.

But also I want 336 00:13:19,480 --> 00:13:21,240 Speaker 1: to point out here, like Ted's not some like three 337 00:13:21,320 --> 00:13:23,600 Speaker 1: hundred pound dude sitting here on the radio. Ted is probably, 338 00:13:23,600 --> 00:13:26,360 Speaker 1: pound for pound, the best physical in the best physical 339 00:13:26,400 --> 00:13:29,280 Speaker 1: shape of anybody on Canby are currently at any point 340 00:13:29,280 --> 00:13:31,600 Speaker 1: of the day, I'll put you up against anybody pound 341 00:13:31,640 --> 00:13:35,120 Speaker 1: for pound without question me Marty. But you know I'm 342 00:13:35,160 --> 00:13:37,120 Speaker 1: taking down Raymie. I don't like them. I don't like 343 00:13:37,200 --> 00:13:39,360 Speaker 1: them disparaging my name. I don't like the mustage. I 344 00:13:39,400 --> 00:13:42,400 Speaker 1: don't like Yeah, ustash is my Thingy had a great mustache. 345 00:13:42,440 --> 00:13:45,600 Speaker 1: He shaved it. The mustache is my thing. Job now 346 00:13:45,640 --> 00:13:50,640 Speaker 1: it's bond like your head. Uh. Anyway, we're live here 347 00:13:50,640 --> 00:13:52,920 Speaker 1: at the tank. So you heard the call on Steph 348 00:13:52,920 --> 00:13:54,920 Speaker 1: coming in there, and the question I asked going to 349 00:13:54,920 --> 00:13:57,600 Speaker 1: break first and foremost was what is his return mean 350 00:13:57,679 --> 00:13:59,760 Speaker 1: for the rest of this season? My first reaction is 351 00:14:00,160 --> 00:14:01,720 Speaker 1: not much. I mean, it's funny to say like he 352 00:14:01,840 --> 00:14:04,680 Speaker 1: was never gone. Yeah, his performance looked like he was 353 00:14:04,720 --> 00:14:07,800 Speaker 1: never gone. We didn't get a lot from Porzingis last night. 354 00:14:07,840 --> 00:14:09,880 Speaker 1: He had five foulsand the third and then fouled out 355 00:14:10,080 --> 00:14:12,320 Speaker 1: early in the fourth. And I really, for me, that's 356 00:14:12,400 --> 00:14:14,640 Speaker 1: kind of more of what the end of this season 357 00:14:14,679 --> 00:14:17,559 Speaker 1: is about, Like can you take enough inventory to see 358 00:14:17,600 --> 00:14:20,200 Speaker 1: is that a piece worth keeping? What? What can you 359 00:14:20,240 --> 00:14:22,080 Speaker 1: look like with the pieces that are here like they 360 00:14:22,080 --> 00:14:23,360 Speaker 1: would with that small line up at the end of 361 00:14:23,400 --> 00:14:25,200 Speaker 1: the game, which is a lineup I think you would 362 00:14:25,200 --> 00:14:27,680 Speaker 1: see in a playoff series or something. You'd see Steve 363 00:14:27,720 --> 00:14:29,880 Speaker 1: Kurr run out there in closer games against good teams 364 00:14:30,000 --> 00:14:32,920 Speaker 1: like Houston, where you got Steph Draymond's at the five, 365 00:14:32,960 --> 00:14:36,320 Speaker 1: I think it was Melton GP two and who else? 366 00:14:36,360 --> 00:14:38,240 Speaker 1: My forgetting there was Pods. The Pods was the fifth 367 00:14:38,240 --> 00:14:39,640 Speaker 1: one out there, Right's so you run them with a 368 00:14:39,640 --> 00:14:42,000 Speaker 1: small lineup. Because he didn't do anything on the last play, 369 00:14:42,040 --> 00:14:43,760 Speaker 1: there was exactly There was a lot of cutting, there's 370 00:14:43,760 --> 00:14:45,280 Speaker 1: a lot of diving, and there's a lot of good plays. 371 00:14:45,280 --> 00:14:46,760 Speaker 1: I felt like when Steph came in, I think they 372 00:14:46,760 --> 00:14:48,760 Speaker 1: were down ten and they cut it to the one 373 00:14:48,800 --> 00:14:52,800 Speaker 1: point deficit. But like this season has felt for the 374 00:14:52,920 --> 00:14:55,040 Speaker 1: entirety of it, and even a bit when Jimmy Butler 375 00:14:55,080 --> 00:14:56,480 Speaker 1: was healthy, I'm not sure they had enough. 376 00:14:56,520 --> 00:14:58,960 Speaker 2: Here's the deal though, why I think it's intriguing Steph 377 00:14:59,000 --> 00:15:01,680 Speaker 2: comes back and looks like Steph. There's no doubt about it. 378 00:15:02,080 --> 00:15:04,160 Speaker 2: If they are able to get in and get through 379 00:15:04,200 --> 00:15:07,200 Speaker 2: the play. And does anybody want to play Steph Curry 380 00:15:07,200 --> 00:15:09,240 Speaker 2: and the Warriors in the first round knowing that he 381 00:15:09,280 --> 00:15:11,200 Speaker 2: can go off the way that he is capable of, 382 00:15:11,320 --> 00:15:14,680 Speaker 2: just because he is such a dynamic force that suddenly 383 00:15:15,000 --> 00:15:17,280 Speaker 2: a switch can be flipped, and even without Jimmy Butler 384 00:15:17,440 --> 00:15:20,400 Speaker 2: to where if porzingis is looking like he's capable of looking, 385 00:15:20,440 --> 00:15:23,600 Speaker 2: and Gary Payton also the second excuse me, suddenly looked 386 00:15:23,600 --> 00:15:25,480 Speaker 2: like he was the guy that he was a couple 387 00:15:25,520 --> 00:15:27,840 Speaker 2: of years ago. If things fall into place, I don't 388 00:15:27,880 --> 00:15:30,360 Speaker 2: think this is a championship team, but it's a team 389 00:15:30,400 --> 00:15:34,120 Speaker 2: that can give you problems and potentially cause an upset. 390 00:15:34,160 --> 00:15:36,040 Speaker 2: And you have a throwback to where Steph is bombing 391 00:15:36,080 --> 00:15:38,440 Speaker 2: away from distance and the Warriors doing special things. Because 392 00:15:38,440 --> 00:15:40,880 Speaker 2: if Steph's going, everybody else is going, like you said, 393 00:15:41,000 --> 00:15:42,560 Speaker 2: you get more of an idea of where it's going 394 00:15:42,600 --> 00:15:44,240 Speaker 2: for the future, which is I want to get to 395 00:15:44,280 --> 00:15:46,640 Speaker 2: that in a second. But I don't think it really 396 00:15:46,720 --> 00:15:49,440 Speaker 2: means that much right now. But it is fun to 397 00:15:49,440 --> 00:15:51,440 Speaker 2: think about because Steph Curry, as soon as he's back 398 00:15:51,440 --> 00:15:53,840 Speaker 2: out there, it's like, oh yeah, this guy is the best, 399 00:15:53,880 --> 00:15:57,000 Speaker 2: most dangerous shooter in the game. He changes everything instantly. 400 00:15:57,160 --> 00:15:59,360 Speaker 1: Here's what Steph said. I think this is before the game. 401 00:15:59,400 --> 00:16:02,440 Speaker 1: Steph was out what this team is capable of for 402 00:16:02,560 --> 00:16:04,320 Speaker 1: the remainder of the season. Here's what he had to say. 403 00:16:05,040 --> 00:16:09,640 Speaker 4: I'd say, you've got to be smart and do the 404 00:16:09,760 --> 00:16:13,000 Speaker 4: right things for the right reasons, and I'm sure the 405 00:16:13,080 --> 00:16:16,080 Speaker 4: next game will look very similar to this one, and 406 00:16:16,080 --> 00:16:18,000 Speaker 4: then you kind of continue to assess how you feel 407 00:16:18,120 --> 00:16:20,560 Speaker 4: moving forward and make you know, again the right decision. 408 00:16:20,680 --> 00:16:24,440 Speaker 4: So I'm looking forward to is Tuesday probably be the 409 00:16:24,520 --> 00:16:27,720 Speaker 4: same kind of kind of flowing rhythm. Hopefully it's you know, 410 00:16:27,800 --> 00:16:29,440 Speaker 4: more of the same, and then we kind of take 411 00:16:29,440 --> 00:16:29,920 Speaker 4: it from there. 412 00:16:31,160 --> 00:16:33,040 Speaker 1: So I you know, they can't go up, they can't 413 00:16:33,040 --> 00:16:35,280 Speaker 1: go down from ten, right, that's where they are. They're 414 00:16:35,320 --> 00:16:37,720 Speaker 1: destined for the play in again and coming into the season, 415 00:16:37,920 --> 00:16:40,560 Speaker 1: Derek and I talked a lot about this. Marcus Thompson disagreed, 416 00:16:40,920 --> 00:16:43,160 Speaker 1: but I said, what does success look like? And I said, 417 00:16:43,160 --> 00:16:45,560 Speaker 1: in this era and this iteration, you're kind of doing 418 00:16:45,640 --> 00:16:47,960 Speaker 1: what the Dodgers are. Unless you win it all, it 419 00:16:48,000 --> 00:16:50,440 Speaker 1: doesn't really mean much of anything, Danny Fan, because that's 420 00:16:50,800 --> 00:16:53,680 Speaker 1: what this organization has predicated itself on now, and it's 421 00:16:53,680 --> 00:16:56,400 Speaker 1: how you've got about constructing the roster. Now, when you 422 00:16:56,440 --> 00:16:59,120 Speaker 1: construct it, where your top three players are going to 423 00:16:59,160 --> 00:17:01,560 Speaker 1: be age thirty nine, season for stephf going to be 424 00:17:01,600 --> 00:17:03,480 Speaker 1: aged like thirty seven or thirty eight for Jimmy, And 425 00:17:03,520 --> 00:17:06,040 Speaker 1: the same can be said for Draymond plus coming off 426 00:17:06,040 --> 00:17:08,520 Speaker 1: of now a major knee injury for Jimmy. And we're 427 00:17:08,560 --> 00:17:11,240 Speaker 1: also talking about Steph like when he's out there, we 428 00:17:11,320 --> 00:17:13,000 Speaker 1: know that this is still his prime. Can he do 429 00:17:13,080 --> 00:17:15,520 Speaker 1: this every night? I don't know. Can you save him 430 00:17:15,560 --> 00:17:17,160 Speaker 1: enough so he can do it in the postseason? Maybe? 431 00:17:17,200 --> 00:17:19,439 Speaker 1: So when I ask now what the value of this 432 00:17:19,480 --> 00:17:23,240 Speaker 1: season may be, I'm kind of wondering, is there anything 433 00:17:23,320 --> 00:17:25,399 Speaker 1: Steph can do to your point about not wanting to 434 00:17:25,400 --> 00:17:27,760 Speaker 1: play him even if you're a good team because you 435 00:17:27,840 --> 00:17:30,080 Speaker 1: got to chase him around for however many games it is? 436 00:17:30,080 --> 00:17:32,080 Speaker 1: Is there anything Steph can do that is a legacy 437 00:17:32,600 --> 00:17:36,320 Speaker 1: type of thing for himself this season? And the best 438 00:17:36,320 --> 00:17:38,359 Speaker 1: thing I can come up with is you win to 439 00:17:38,520 --> 00:17:41,199 Speaker 1: play in games? Yeah, and you take okay see to 440 00:17:41,240 --> 00:17:43,960 Speaker 1: the break if you got to like Game seven with 441 00:17:44,040 --> 00:17:46,480 Speaker 1: Oka see, And to be honest with you, I don't 442 00:17:46,480 --> 00:17:49,119 Speaker 1: think that's a possibility. Oh I think it is. See. 443 00:17:49,160 --> 00:17:52,200 Speaker 1: I think Steph Curry I'm changing anything at anymore. I'm 444 00:17:52,240 --> 00:17:53,960 Speaker 1: with you. I hear that. I don't think they have 445 00:17:54,080 --> 00:17:56,720 Speaker 1: the tools around him for him to do it four 446 00:17:56,760 --> 00:17:58,440 Speaker 1: times or three times. I mean, that's the things I 447 00:17:58,440 --> 00:18:00,520 Speaker 1: wouldn't I wouldn't better than either. But I'd be a 448 00:18:00,520 --> 00:18:02,720 Speaker 1: fool to bet against Steph Curry in any acsition. My 449 00:18:02,800 --> 00:18:04,639 Speaker 1: thing is if they can get out of two playing games, 450 00:18:04,760 --> 00:18:07,480 Speaker 1: eliminate somebody, make it hard on somebody else. If you 451 00:18:07,480 --> 00:18:09,640 Speaker 1: can take okay, see to the brink, I would take 452 00:18:09,760 --> 00:18:12,280 Speaker 1: like I would take that type of opening round series 453 00:18:12,560 --> 00:18:14,639 Speaker 1: in the way that I looked at We Believe and said, dude, 454 00:18:14,720 --> 00:18:18,160 Speaker 1: that's just another look what this guy can do by himself. 455 00:18:18,400 --> 00:18:20,720 Speaker 1: If he's got two other pieces or one other piece, 456 00:18:21,000 --> 00:18:23,760 Speaker 1: they're a championship caliber team as like a four or five. 457 00:18:24,080 --> 00:18:26,919 Speaker 2: Anything that comes in with the Warriors advancing out of 458 00:18:26,920 --> 00:18:28,679 Speaker 2: the play ins and getting and to be able to 459 00:18:28,680 --> 00:18:31,320 Speaker 2: make some noise at the very least centered around Steph 460 00:18:31,400 --> 00:18:34,240 Speaker 2: Curry playing like Steph Curry. That's legacy adding because it 461 00:18:34,280 --> 00:18:36,960 Speaker 2: shows all the detractors, all the doubters about Steph Curry 462 00:18:37,000 --> 00:18:39,159 Speaker 2: just what he is singularly capable of. And that's not 463 00:18:39,200 --> 00:18:41,760 Speaker 2: to detract from anybody else on the Warriors, but when 464 00:18:42,040 --> 00:18:44,560 Speaker 2: Steph got into the game, you saw what a difference 465 00:18:44,600 --> 00:18:47,240 Speaker 2: he is compared to everybody else out there on the Warriors. 466 00:18:47,280 --> 00:18:48,919 Speaker 2: And I don't mean that as any sign of disrespect. 467 00:18:48,920 --> 00:18:51,199 Speaker 2: That's just a show of how good Steph is. But 468 00:18:51,280 --> 00:18:54,520 Speaker 2: I think it would also remind the Warriors top brass. 469 00:18:54,560 --> 00:18:56,320 Speaker 2: I don't know how much of a reminder their need, 470 00:18:56,480 --> 00:18:58,600 Speaker 2: but they'd be able to see very clearly. Okay, if 471 00:18:58,640 --> 00:19:01,440 Speaker 2: we are aggressive, if we can change things in terms 472 00:19:01,440 --> 00:19:03,600 Speaker 2: of the tools that are around him, or how aggressive 473 00:19:03,640 --> 00:19:05,199 Speaker 2: we want to being going out and getting somebody in 474 00:19:05,240 --> 00:19:09,320 Speaker 2: the offseason, that you still have a relative window, if 475 00:19:09,320 --> 00:19:10,639 Speaker 2: we want to call it that, because I think the 476 00:19:10,680 --> 00:19:12,840 Speaker 2: window is as long as Steph Curry wants it to be. 477 00:19:12,840 --> 00:19:16,200 Speaker 2: Because while we talk about Lebron being a vampire, Steph 478 00:19:16,320 --> 00:19:17,720 Speaker 2: is not going to be able to do a lot 479 00:19:17,720 --> 00:19:20,040 Speaker 2: defensively as he gets later into his career and you 480 00:19:20,040 --> 00:19:21,679 Speaker 2: have to manage his minutes a little bit more. But 481 00:19:21,720 --> 00:19:25,880 Speaker 2: I think that his weapon offensively, purely, he is going 482 00:19:25,880 --> 00:19:27,280 Speaker 2: to be able to do this. I think for as 483 00:19:27,320 --> 00:19:29,720 Speaker 2: long as he wants. I think he still. Did you 484 00:19:29,760 --> 00:19:31,640 Speaker 2: see anything last night that made you think, oh, yeah, 485 00:19:31,680 --> 00:19:33,679 Speaker 2: he's not. He can't create space anymore, he can't get 486 00:19:33,720 --> 00:19:35,640 Speaker 2: the shot off quickly. Now he's a guy that can 487 00:19:35,680 --> 00:19:37,240 Speaker 2: go for as long as he wants. And if I 488 00:19:37,240 --> 00:19:39,399 Speaker 2: said that he was playing in twenty thirty, would that 489 00:19:39,440 --> 00:19:42,320 Speaker 2: shock you in thirty Yeah? 490 00:19:42,359 --> 00:19:44,360 Speaker 1: No, No, I kind of feel like that's about where 491 00:19:44,400 --> 00:19:47,000 Speaker 1: we're at because because he's a shooter and because he 492 00:19:47,000 --> 00:19:48,680 Speaker 1: can be a weapon like this, and he can catch 493 00:19:48,720 --> 00:19:50,480 Speaker 1: fire in the way that you saw last night, like 494 00:19:50,480 --> 00:19:52,760 Speaker 1: he wouldn't even start the game red hot, finish eleven 495 00:19:52,760 --> 00:19:55,160 Speaker 1: to twenty, made five threes, and carry them back into 496 00:19:55,200 --> 00:19:57,000 Speaker 1: the game at the end. When you know he's capable 497 00:19:57,000 --> 00:19:58,720 Speaker 1: of that, and you manage his minutes. I used to 498 00:19:58,760 --> 00:20:00,280 Speaker 1: like they always say the shots to the last, then 499 00:20:00,280 --> 00:20:02,240 Speaker 1: to go. I don't think he's gonna lose tons on 500 00:20:02,240 --> 00:20:04,920 Speaker 1: his speed or his his agility because of how he prepares. 501 00:20:05,000 --> 00:20:07,760 Speaker 1: It's about how do you manage those minutes and how 502 00:20:07,800 --> 00:20:10,200 Speaker 1: good can he be If he's not the best player 503 00:20:10,240 --> 00:20:12,760 Speaker 1: on his team or not capable of carrying the load 504 00:20:12,760 --> 00:20:15,399 Speaker 1: throughout a season like that, he needs more. And I 505 00:20:15,640 --> 00:20:19,560 Speaker 1: you know, I appreciate as a fan that last year 506 00:20:19,600 --> 00:20:21,479 Speaker 1: before they made the trade for Jimmy because of initially 507 00:20:21,560 --> 00:20:23,320 Speaker 1: it was like, now we're not in on Jimmy. Yeah, 508 00:20:23,359 --> 00:20:26,320 Speaker 1: and then Durant became available. Then Durant wasn't coming here, 509 00:20:26,800 --> 00:20:28,600 Speaker 1: so then they're back in on Jimmy, and Jimmy couldn't 510 00:20:28,600 --> 00:20:30,680 Speaker 1: go to Phoenix because of the the Bradley Beal movement 511 00:20:30,720 --> 00:20:32,440 Speaker 1: and all that, So then Jimmy's all right, well, I'm 512 00:20:32,440 --> 00:20:34,120 Speaker 1: back in on the Dubs, and that became the best piece. 513 00:20:34,160 --> 00:20:36,720 Speaker 1: But I appreciated Steph saying I don't just want to 514 00:20:36,720 --> 00:20:39,000 Speaker 1: gut the organization for the future, like I have a 515 00:20:39,040 --> 00:20:41,879 Speaker 1: responsibility to the team and the organization. That's not the 516 00:20:41,880 --> 00:20:43,720 Speaker 1: way a lot of guys think about it. No, Stebron's 517 00:20:43,720 --> 00:20:46,320 Speaker 1: gonna make you use up every resource you can, except 518 00:20:46,359 --> 00:20:48,359 Speaker 1: now he's not the guy. Yeah, well now he is 519 00:20:48,400 --> 00:20:50,639 Speaker 1: again because Luca out for the rest of the regular season. 520 00:20:50,640 --> 00:20:53,879 Speaker 2: But the point being less, unless his trip to Europe 521 00:20:53,920 --> 00:20:55,200 Speaker 2: works out, they're trying to bring him back. 522 00:20:55,200 --> 00:20:58,439 Speaker 1: To the point being that, unless you get a player 523 00:20:58,440 --> 00:21:01,520 Speaker 1: that can be a younger, really a number two to 524 00:21:01,560 --> 00:21:05,280 Speaker 1: staff going into next year, and it's not Jimmy Draymont 525 00:21:05,320 --> 00:21:07,560 Speaker 1: on the roster, I don't know how this becomes another 526 00:21:07,640 --> 00:21:09,720 Speaker 1: championship caliber running team. 527 00:21:09,560 --> 00:21:13,280 Speaker 2: Because, like I said, you have that ability of multiple years. 528 00:21:13,280 --> 00:21:15,359 Speaker 2: Like I said, twenty thirty. If that's the end, you 529 00:21:15,400 --> 00:21:17,320 Speaker 2: have a little bit of planning time and you have 530 00:21:17,359 --> 00:21:19,480 Speaker 2: the ability to bring things in now. Because it didn't 531 00:21:19,480 --> 00:21:21,640 Speaker 2: work out with Kaminga, because it didn't work out with Wiseman, 532 00:21:21,880 --> 00:21:25,080 Speaker 2: I think that has damaged the situation overall, and damage 533 00:21:25,119 --> 00:21:27,200 Speaker 2: is probably too harsh of a term, but it's made 534 00:21:27,240 --> 00:21:29,120 Speaker 2: it more difficult than it otherwise would have been because 535 00:21:29,119 --> 00:21:32,040 Speaker 2: if either of those are pure hits. Because I'm one 536 00:21:32,080 --> 00:21:33,919 Speaker 2: of those rare guys, I do not take umbrage with 537 00:21:33,920 --> 00:21:35,600 Speaker 2: the way that Kamena thing worked out. I think that 538 00:21:35,800 --> 00:21:37,800 Speaker 2: they were very clear about what he was and what 539 00:21:37,840 --> 00:21:40,639 Speaker 2: he could be, with the centerpiece being Steph and if 540 00:21:40,640 --> 00:21:42,840 Speaker 2: you're got him for as long as it looks like 541 00:21:42,880 --> 00:21:44,760 Speaker 2: he can go, then that's what you have to play around. 542 00:21:45,040 --> 00:21:47,480 Speaker 2: So I think you just have to figure out how 543 00:21:47,520 --> 00:21:49,720 Speaker 2: you can bring in pieces. And I think if you 544 00:21:49,760 --> 00:21:52,159 Speaker 2: tell Joe lacub like this is gonna cost you, but 545 00:21:52,280 --> 00:21:55,600 Speaker 2: it could bring in another run to a title or 546 00:21:55,600 --> 00:21:57,800 Speaker 2: at least into an NBA finals. You got to go 547 00:21:57,880 --> 00:21:59,520 Speaker 2: all in because you have one of the all time 548 00:21:59,560 --> 00:22:02,080 Speaker 2: great player. And I know that people debate me about 549 00:22:02,080 --> 00:22:03,960 Speaker 2: this for all the time, but in terms of the 550 00:22:04,040 --> 00:22:07,680 Speaker 2: gravitational pull on the floor. There's Wilton Russell, their Shack, 551 00:22:07,720 --> 00:22:08,560 Speaker 2: and there's Steph Curry. 552 00:22:08,760 --> 00:22:13,800 Speaker 1: Nobody else besides those has changed Mail. Yeah, focus, Yes, 553 00:22:13,840 --> 00:22:16,440 Speaker 1: Shack was an I mean the inside out nature of 554 00:22:16,480 --> 00:22:19,240 Speaker 1: Shock was otherworldly. People forget the dominance of Shack. 555 00:22:19,320 --> 00:22:22,280 Speaker 2: People don't people remember the older Shack. They don't remember 556 00:22:22,600 --> 00:22:25,199 Speaker 2: how quick he was, how fast he was when he 557 00:22:25,280 --> 00:22:26,920 Speaker 2: first got into the league out of l s U 558 00:22:27,119 --> 00:22:31,399 Speaker 2: and when he was first him and even when he 559 00:22:31,440 --> 00:22:33,240 Speaker 2: was healthy because he already started having the issues with 560 00:22:33,280 --> 00:22:36,520 Speaker 2: the Lakers. But his spin move, his passing, the way 561 00:22:36,560 --> 00:22:39,440 Speaker 2: he would set up Kobe. Sometimes people forget and then 562 00:22:39,600 --> 00:22:41,840 Speaker 2: you know, they see the replay of Kobe setting up 563 00:22:41,880 --> 00:22:43,920 Speaker 2: Shack for the al up, and I believe that was one. 564 00:22:44,640 --> 00:22:46,520 Speaker 2: Like he would fly out there when he was healthy, 565 00:22:46,520 --> 00:22:53,640 Speaker 2: when he was feeling it. He was such an incredible act. Yeah, 566 00:22:53,720 --> 00:22:55,600 Speaker 2: you sound like when he's like, people remember the older. 567 00:22:55,400 --> 00:22:57,320 Speaker 1: Shack And I was like, yeah, yeah, calv Shack. That's 568 00:22:57,320 --> 00:22:59,960 Speaker 1: always why I think Celtic Celtic Shock. Dude. He would 569 00:23:00,119 --> 00:23:01,720 Speaker 1: still solid on the suns, by the way, Yeah he was. 570 00:23:02,200 --> 00:23:03,959 Speaker 1: He was like nashing him and Amari like they by 571 00:23:04,000 --> 00:23:06,440 Speaker 1: the way, Steve Kerr was a GM I think that's true. Yeah, 572 00:23:06,440 --> 00:23:08,280 Speaker 1: but he was still going for like sixteen eighteen. Yeah, 573 00:23:08,320 --> 00:23:10,840 Speaker 1: he was a good player. Alvin Gentry out there, there 574 00:23:10,880 --> 00:23:14,000 Speaker 1: was a couple of good series with with that Sun's 575 00:23:14,040 --> 00:23:16,160 Speaker 1: team going up against Kobe. Remember Nash broke his nose 576 00:23:16,560 --> 00:23:18,480 Speaker 1: in that second round series. I remember at one point 577 00:23:18,640 --> 00:23:20,879 Speaker 1: in the second year they played each other, Kobe hit 578 00:23:20,920 --> 00:23:24,080 Speaker 1: a fadeaway baseline jumper as he did, and as he's 579 00:23:24,160 --> 00:23:26,480 Speaker 1: running back on court, Gentry calls a tight on. He's 580 00:23:26,480 --> 00:23:29,119 Speaker 1: like smiling, like Kobe got us, and Kobe tapped him 581 00:23:29,160 --> 00:23:32,680 Speaker 1: on the ass. I was like, damn, dude, that's pretty funny. Man. 582 00:23:32,960 --> 00:23:34,560 Speaker 1: His pretential. He's like, what am I gonna do? Like, 583 00:23:34,560 --> 00:23:36,600 Speaker 1: it's Kobe Bryant. That's the move we all know is 584 00:23:36,640 --> 00:23:39,159 Speaker 1: coming and can't stop it. Adam Copeland ten Ramy with 585 00:23:39,160 --> 00:23:40,879 Speaker 1: you Live from the Shark Tank with the Sharks by 586 00:23:40,880 --> 00:23:44,200 Speaker 1: the way tonight drop bucket seven o'clock Sharks and the Blackhawks. 587 00:23:44,520 --> 00:23:47,200 Speaker 2: I'd say it's a half to half. Oh most definitely, 588 00:23:47,280 --> 00:23:48,719 Speaker 2: this is a team that's a must win. But it's 589 00:23:48,720 --> 00:23:50,159 Speaker 2: a half to half. No, it is a must win. 590 00:23:50,200 --> 00:23:52,520 Speaker 2: They're all essentially must wins because you're not gonna win 591 00:23:52,560 --> 00:23:54,640 Speaker 2: every single one, because the Sharks haven't won more than 592 00:23:54,720 --> 00:23:56,640 Speaker 2: four in a row dating back to the twenty eighteen 593 00:23:56,680 --> 00:23:59,159 Speaker 2: twenty nineteen season, So you gotta view them all as 594 00:23:59,240 --> 00:24:00,959 Speaker 2: must win games if you want to get in. And 595 00:24:01,000 --> 00:24:03,359 Speaker 2: it's even if even if they win six out of 596 00:24:03,400 --> 00:24:05,879 Speaker 2: their remaining seven, it's still gonna be tough. But they 597 00:24:06,200 --> 00:24:08,000 Speaker 2: they got to beat a team like Chicago that's already 598 00:24:08,000 --> 00:24:10,480 Speaker 2: been eliminated. The Sharks still have everything to play for. 599 00:24:10,680 --> 00:24:12,440 Speaker 2: And by the way, like nobody wants to play Steph 600 00:24:12,520 --> 00:24:14,480 Speaker 2: Curry in the first round, nobody wants to play the Sharks. 601 00:24:14,520 --> 00:24:17,160 Speaker 1: I'd be annoying, dude, I'd be annoying. You know. We'll 602 00:24:17,160 --> 00:24:18,520 Speaker 1: get more into this in just a minute. I should 603 00:24:18,520 --> 00:24:20,520 Speaker 1: tell you, by the way, that today's show and the 604 00:24:20,560 --> 00:24:22,800 Speaker 1: segment is sponsored by Redwood Credit Union for you for 605 00:24:22,920 --> 00:24:26,640 Speaker 1: community for seventy five years.

I don't know his kids here, 648 00:26:24,480 --> 00:26:29,119 Speaker 1: so I have to assume it worked twice. That's all 649 00:26:29,160 --> 00:26:30,760 Speaker 1: you need, win five two times. 650 00:26:30,800 --> 00:26:32,960 Speaker 2: Yeah, dude, it was the same percentage on that goalie 651 00:26:33,040 --> 00:26:33,840 Speaker 2: is phenomenal. 652 00:26:36,160 --> 00:26:38,800 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, dude, he's hit, he's got a higher percentage 653 00:26:38,800 --> 00:26:40,680 Speaker 1: of the Giants right now. Actually they've got three, three 654 00:26:40,680 --> 00:26:42,960 Speaker 1: and ten, So all right, we got the Sharks that 655 00:26:43,000 --> 00:26:45,520 Speaker 1: I had seven o'clock against the Blackhawks. This has been, 656 00:26:45,560 --> 00:26:47,560 Speaker 1: I mean incredible the season. I mean, I don't want 657 00:26:47,560 --> 00:26:49,960 Speaker 1: to even get into the big picture of the season 658 00:26:49,960 --> 00:26:51,840 Speaker 1: because we've done that with you all season long. And 659 00:26:51,880 --> 00:26:53,520 Speaker 1: I said to Derek at one point a couple of months, 660 00:26:53,520 --> 00:26:55,960 Speaker 1: maybe a month ago, right funny, like right out of 661 00:26:56,000 --> 00:26:58,520 Speaker 1: the Olympic break, right before the start of the six 662 00:26:58,560 --> 00:27:01,399 Speaker 1: game losing streak, I was like, you know what, I'm 663 00:27:01,440 --> 00:27:03,080 Speaker 1: at the point where I'd be disappointed if they missed 664 00:27:03,080 --> 00:27:05,199 Speaker 1: the playoffs because of how well they've played. Then the 665 00:27:05,240 --> 00:27:08,200 Speaker 1: six games come and I went, you know what, it's 666 00:27:08,280 --> 00:27:11,600 Speaker 1: really tough to project out, especially for the youth of 667 00:27:11,640 --> 00:27:14,080 Speaker 1: this team for the first time being in these moments 668 00:27:14,359 --> 00:27:16,080 Speaker 1: and for the first time any of these guys or 669 00:27:16,119 --> 00:27:18,800 Speaker 1: a lot of them have participated in an Olympic break 670 00:27:18,840 --> 00:27:21,320 Speaker 1: in the middle of the season, and for Macklin playing 671 00:27:21,320 --> 00:27:23,119 Speaker 1: at the highest level, a lot of it's like Starry, 672 00:27:23,480 --> 00:27:24,920 Speaker 1: there's a case to be made. They're not in the 673 00:27:24,960 --> 00:27:26,720 Speaker 1: gold medal game without Maclin. 674 00:27:27,080 --> 00:27:29,760 Speaker 2: Yeah, hearing your mental gymnastics. I want to let all 675 00:27:29,840 --> 00:27:32,440 Speaker 2: my Sharks coworkers know that our messaging has worked because 676 00:27:32,440 --> 00:27:34,320 Speaker 2: you were ready to justify why they should be in 677 00:27:34,640 --> 00:27:35,680 Speaker 2: and why they should be out. 678 00:27:35,720 --> 00:27:38,240 Speaker 1: So then we're getting it across well. But no, but 679 00:27:38,280 --> 00:27:40,159 Speaker 1: you're right though, I mean, I mean, there's reason to 680 00:27:40,200 --> 00:27:42,200 Speaker 1: believe they shouldn't be but also when you see a 681 00:27:42,240 --> 00:27:44,680 Speaker 1: young team play this late and getting that. The moment 682 00:27:44,720 --> 00:27:46,439 Speaker 1: that did it for me was when Macklin's like in 683 00:27:46,560 --> 00:27:47,879 Speaker 1: I think it might have been the sixth game, the 684 00:27:47,880 --> 00:27:50,840 Speaker 1: sixth loss, fifth or sixth, and he said, you know, man, 685 00:27:50,840 --> 00:27:52,560 Speaker 1: I just feel like I'm not doing enough to help 686 00:27:52,600 --> 00:27:54,640 Speaker 1: the team or do my job. When I was like, ah, shucks, kid. 687 00:27:54,760 --> 00:27:57,359 Speaker 2: That was the overtimer, Yes, the overtime, a loss against 688 00:27:57,359 --> 00:27:59,399 Speaker 2: the Blues with two point four seconds five or six. 689 00:28:02,600 --> 00:28:04,639 Speaker 2: That was That was the sixth I think, because the 690 00:28:04,640 --> 00:28:06,840 Speaker 2: next one was at Columbus when they won, if I 691 00:28:06,840 --> 00:28:09,560 Speaker 2: remember it correctly. But he didn't back check hard enough 692 00:28:09,560 --> 00:28:10,800 Speaker 2: to come and try and block the shot because he 693 00:28:10,840 --> 00:28:12,159 Speaker 2: thought the clock was gonna run out and they were 694 00:28:12,160 --> 00:28:14,919 Speaker 2: going to go to overtime, and everybody was like Maclin's tired. 695 00:28:15,400 --> 00:28:17,159 Speaker 2: Everyone you know everyone's coming to hard to down on 696 00:28:17,200 --> 00:28:19,560 Speaker 2: Macklin and then he after that shows up with two 697 00:28:19,680 --> 00:28:22,200 Speaker 2: three and four point games. The play you heard coming 698 00:28:22,200 --> 00:28:24,320 Speaker 2: back was the TNT call of the game winner against 699 00:28:24,320 --> 00:28:27,800 Speaker 2: the Ducks where the Sharks rallied from two goals down late. 700 00:28:28,040 --> 00:28:31,159 Speaker 2: Macklin celebraty had four points in that game. Was absolutely phenomenal. 701 00:28:31,440 --> 00:28:32,800 Speaker 2: It was three straight games and they hit the game 702 00:28:32,800 --> 00:28:35,960 Speaker 2: winning goal in the final final ninety seconds. Yeah that 703 00:28:36,040 --> 00:28:39,880 Speaker 2: which was regulation. Yeah, incredible, absolutely incredible comebacks for the 704 00:28:39,880 --> 00:28:43,360 Speaker 2: Sharks and game winning goals. However, the drama has been there. 705 00:28:43,640 --> 00:28:46,040 Speaker 2: You flash back to twenty ten, the torture of the Giants. 706 00:28:46,040 --> 00:28:47,600 Speaker 2: That's what the Sharks do because they've had so many 707 00:28:47,680 --> 00:28:50,360 Speaker 2: late wins this year. They're the anti La King. Yeah, 708 00:28:50,400 --> 00:28:52,360 Speaker 2: they come up big at the big moments. Well, that 709 00:28:52,480 --> 00:28:54,800 Speaker 2: clutch factor of this team is phenomenal. 710 00:28:54,440 --> 00:28:56,960 Speaker 1: And that's something that that intrigued me this time of 711 00:28:57,040 --> 00:29:00,800 Speaker 1: year because it doesn't ever appear. It's almost the mentality 712 00:29:00,800 --> 00:29:03,760 Speaker 1: of we don't know, we shouldn't be winning these games. 713 00:29:04,040 --> 00:29:07,080 Speaker 1: We're faster than a lot of these teams, We're quicker 714 00:29:07,080 --> 00:29:08,760 Speaker 1: and more athletic and younger than a lot of these 715 00:29:08,760 --> 00:29:11,680 Speaker 1: teams and while not as polished, if we're around late, 716 00:29:11,720 --> 00:29:14,120 Speaker 1: we've got an opportunity to do some damage. And they've 717 00:29:14,120 --> 00:29:16,680 Speaker 1: shown that from the start of the year basically once 718 00:29:16,720 --> 00:29:18,320 Speaker 1: they start, when they go oh and six to start 719 00:29:18,480 --> 00:29:20,760 Speaker 1: four to two to start the season, and then started 720 00:29:20,760 --> 00:29:23,000 Speaker 1: winning all these games late and close. And they've done 721 00:29:23,040 --> 00:29:25,760 Speaker 1: it in the with the ability to come back in games. 722 00:29:25,920 --> 00:29:28,520 Speaker 1: Remember the Pittsburgh game of course, Incredible five or whatever 723 00:29:28,560 --> 00:29:31,560 Speaker 1: it is WI and they come back and win that game. 724 00:29:31,640 --> 00:29:33,760 Speaker 1: They've done it where it's a game where they've relinquished 725 00:29:33,760 --> 00:29:35,600 Speaker 1: the lead and then put it away late and if 726 00:29:35,640 --> 00:29:37,960 Speaker 1: they score late to send it to OT. They've put 727 00:29:37,960 --> 00:29:40,600 Speaker 1: games away early in OT several times this year. So 728 00:29:40,720 --> 00:29:43,040 Speaker 1: when you're playing these high pressure games, it feels like 729 00:29:43,280 --> 00:29:45,840 Speaker 1: a in a microcosm type of way, they've already sort 730 00:29:45,880 --> 00:29:48,280 Speaker 1: of experienced this type of pressure in the scratch. 731 00:29:48,320 --> 00:29:50,160 Speaker 2: And I feel like the sharkshirret a point now where 732 00:29:50,200 --> 00:29:52,320 Speaker 2: they either get beat early on, like they went down 733 00:29:52,320 --> 00:29:54,080 Speaker 2: three to nothing against Nashville the other day and they 734 00:29:54,160 --> 00:29:55,640 Speaker 2: rallied to make a three to three, but then they 735 00:29:55,680 --> 00:29:57,520 Speaker 2: had some self inflicted wounds throughout the rest of the 736 00:29:57,520 --> 00:29:59,440 Speaker 2: game that caused them to lose it. But they either 737 00:29:59,440 --> 00:30:01,960 Speaker 2: get beat or early on, or they hang around long 738 00:30:02,080 --> 00:30:04,440 Speaker 2: enough to win, and that means either winning an overtime, 739 00:30:04,440 --> 00:30:07,720 Speaker 2: that means winning. With Layton regulation, they know how to 740 00:30:07,760 --> 00:30:09,920 Speaker 2: win games. I think that's the most impressive part about 741 00:30:09,920 --> 00:30:12,240 Speaker 2: this is that I think there's a relative expectation that 742 00:30:12,280 --> 00:30:15,160 Speaker 2: the Sharks are. They're young, they're learning because a lot 743 00:30:15,200 --> 00:30:17,240 Speaker 2: of the names that we associate it's gonna be Maclin 744 00:30:17,280 --> 00:30:21,800 Speaker 2: celebrating young Will Smith, Young Colin Graft, Igor Chernishoff, Michael Misa, 745 00:30:22,080 --> 00:30:24,560 Speaker 2: Sam Dickinson. These are the faces of the future. But 746 00:30:24,640 --> 00:30:27,239 Speaker 2: you also contrast this with Alex Wenberg. He's a pro, 747 00:30:27,320 --> 00:30:30,640 Speaker 2: he's been there, Barclay Goodrow pro multi Stanley Cup winner, 748 00:30:31,280 --> 00:30:33,480 Speaker 2: the fole, he's been around, Stanley Cup winner, You talk 749 00:30:33,560 --> 00:30:36,320 Speaker 2: about Ryan Waves, Yeah, Keeper Sherwood, now he's one of 750 00:30:36,320 --> 00:30:39,480 Speaker 2: these guys. Keiper Sherwood's really interesting case because he is 751 00:30:40,520 --> 00:30:40,800 Speaker 2: not an. 752 00:30:40,760 --> 00:30:41,440 Speaker 1: Extension year. 753 00:30:43,080 --> 00:30:45,000 Speaker 2: I was when I filled in with Derek when you 754 00:30:45,040 --> 00:30:48,400 Speaker 2: were out. So when that goes down, Keith for Shwoo's 755 00:30:48,440 --> 00:30:50,600 Speaker 2: taking up an interesting role with the Sharks because he 756 00:30:50,720 --> 00:30:53,720 Speaker 2: was like a depth player otherwise in his career, but 757 00:30:53,800 --> 00:30:55,320 Speaker 2: like in sales Hey, he's. 758 00:30:55,200 --> 00:30:57,680 Speaker 1: Kind of like a star now due and he's playing 759 00:30:57,720 --> 00:30:59,680 Speaker 1: is he Is he on the second line? Yes, so 760 00:30:59,760 --> 00:31:02,240 Speaker 1: he's I mean, I thought in the entire third period. 761 00:31:02,560 --> 00:31:04,040 Speaker 1: And I want to ask you about this too, because 762 00:31:04,040 --> 00:31:05,720 Speaker 1: this is something that I questioned it Again, I haven't 763 00:31:05,760 --> 00:31:08,520 Speaker 1: watched the I'm starting to try to understand the strategy 764 00:31:08,560 --> 00:31:13,520 Speaker 1: of how someone's been and so they've got sure one 765 00:31:13,520 --> 00:31:15,520 Speaker 1: out there and dude like he's obviously not an enforcer, 766 00:31:15,600 --> 00:31:19,600 Speaker 1: but he's sort of like a chapped ass, like pissed off? 767 00:31:20,400 --> 00:31:22,800 Speaker 1: How many? How many stoppages do we have in the 768 00:31:22,800 --> 00:31:25,160 Speaker 1: third period where he was in the middle of all 769 00:31:25,200 --> 00:31:27,480 Speaker 1: of it going down where he's like, look, if the 770 00:31:27,480 --> 00:31:29,120 Speaker 1: the young studs are going to be off the ice, 771 00:31:29,200 --> 00:31:31,160 Speaker 1: I'm going to bring some sort of edge when I 772 00:31:31,200 --> 00:31:33,000 Speaker 1: am on the ice. And it seems like since he's 773 00:31:33,040 --> 00:31:35,440 Speaker 1: been here, especially in these last few games, that's been 774 00:31:35,440 --> 00:31:37,840 Speaker 1: a huge factor for them. The question I would ask is, 775 00:31:37,880 --> 00:31:40,000 Speaker 1: and this is something that would happen with Steve caurra 776 00:31:40,080 --> 00:31:42,479 Speaker 1: lot where people would go, I mean, it happens all 777 00:31:42,520 --> 00:31:44,720 Speaker 1: the time where people don't like how he's managing the 778 00:31:44,760 --> 00:31:46,560 Speaker 1: minutes or get stuff back on the floor. You gotta 779 00:31:46,600 --> 00:31:48,520 Speaker 1: get stuff back on the floor. It's always different off 780 00:31:48,560 --> 00:31:50,840 Speaker 1: of injury. At what point and I know they're changing 781 00:31:50,920 --> 00:31:53,080 Speaker 1: lines so quickly. Felt to me like maclum was off 782 00:31:53,120 --> 00:31:55,240 Speaker 1: the ice for a long time into the third period, 783 00:31:55,240 --> 00:31:57,080 Speaker 1: like maybe the first like eight or nine minutes of 784 00:31:57,120 --> 00:31:59,360 Speaker 1: the third period that long. I don't on that. 785 00:31:59,400 --> 00:32:01,080 Speaker 2: I can't remember off the top of my head, but 786 00:32:01,080 --> 00:32:02,800 Speaker 2: I would have. I think I would have noticed that 787 00:32:02,800 --> 00:32:04,680 Speaker 2: if that was the case. But they got back into 788 00:32:04,680 --> 00:32:07,080 Speaker 2: that game. They're playing well in the third period. He 789 00:32:07,160 --> 00:32:09,320 Speaker 2: might have changed up his lines a little bit. But 790 00:32:09,560 --> 00:32:11,560 Speaker 2: I think that what you're seeing, though, is that other 791 00:32:11,640 --> 00:32:14,320 Speaker 2: guys are making contributions. You're so used to being locked 792 00:32:14,360 --> 00:32:17,440 Speaker 2: in on Macklan celebriny, You've seen more with Wenberg. He's 793 00:32:17,480 --> 00:32:19,600 Speaker 2: got what five goals in his last six games, and 794 00:32:19,720 --> 00:32:22,280 Speaker 2: he's got a point streaky six games going. Like you said, Keith, 795 00:32:22,320 --> 00:32:24,360 Speaker 2: for sure, woods all over the place, banging around out there. 796 00:32:25,280 --> 00:32:25,840 Speaker 1: Done dude. 797 00:32:25,840 --> 00:32:28,760 Speaker 2: Eckland's been coming in with it. He's had the craziest 798 00:32:29,080 --> 00:32:31,760 Speaker 2: two plays this year. He might have the best assist 799 00:32:31,840 --> 00:32:32,160 Speaker 2: of the year. 800 00:32:32,200 --> 00:32:32,440 Speaker 1: I don't know. 801 00:32:32,480 --> 00:32:34,200 Speaker 2: If you saw his no look between his legs the 802 00:32:34,280 --> 00:32:37,560 Speaker 2: other day. I think that was the assist to Letty's goal. 803 00:32:37,800 --> 00:32:39,080 Speaker 2: I'm trying to remember off the top of my head. 804 00:32:39,120 --> 00:32:41,520 Speaker 2: But then he also had that incredible flying through the 805 00:32:41,560 --> 00:32:43,680 Speaker 2: air that was It's crazy that he has two of 806 00:32:43,680 --> 00:32:46,720 Speaker 2: the wildest plays this year, just both to him and 807 00:32:46,760 --> 00:32:48,880 Speaker 2: a team that has Macklin Celebrini on it. He's got 808 00:32:48,920 --> 00:32:50,640 Speaker 2: the unbelievable play of all plays. 809 00:32:50,720 --> 00:32:52,520 Speaker 1: How about the Sherwood assist when he pops it out 810 00:32:52,640 --> 00:32:54,320 Speaker 1: on Saturday too, that was the game time goal. I 811 00:32:54,320 --> 00:32:56,560 Speaker 1: want to say at the start of me that was too. 812 00:32:57,240 --> 00:32:58,840 Speaker 2: I'm trying to think we had the third goal there. 813 00:33:00,720 --> 00:33:02,320 Speaker 2: I think it was Wemburg's goal because it went Letty 814 00:33:02,400 --> 00:33:05,080 Speaker 2: and then when celebrity and then Wemburg because Wemburg then 815 00:33:05,120 --> 00:33:06,440 Speaker 2: took it up the link of the ice. 816 00:33:06,240 --> 00:33:08,080 Speaker 1: And then went that's right. He was you, yeah, that's right, 817 00:33:08,360 --> 00:33:09,040 Speaker 1: which n y. 818 00:33:09,040 --> 00:33:11,160 Speaker 2: Play himself, But you want to see more of those 819 00:33:11,200 --> 00:33:13,760 Speaker 2: other guys contributing. You want to see everybody getting on it. 820 00:33:13,760 --> 00:33:15,640 Speaker 2: This funning we've talked about a lot about on the 821 00:33:15,760 --> 00:33:18,760 Speaker 2: NBC pre and post game is that who's got to 822 00:33:18,840 --> 00:33:20,960 Speaker 2: be the next leading scorer after Macklin And I think 823 00:33:20,960 --> 00:33:23,120 Speaker 2: the immediate reactions, oh, Will Smith, But it's like, no, 824 00:33:23,240 --> 00:33:25,880 Speaker 2: that means it's still that top line together getting it done. 825 00:33:26,840 --> 00:33:28,400 Speaker 1: You need Wemburger Ecklin. 826 00:33:28,120 --> 00:33:29,560 Speaker 2: To come up and really be the leading guy, and 827 00:33:29,600 --> 00:33:31,760 Speaker 2: I I'm wenburg is the one who's really stepped up 828 00:33:31,760 --> 00:33:33,959 Speaker 2: as of late. But it's it's so funny because we 829 00:33:34,000 --> 00:33:36,640 Speaker 2: talk so much about the stars in every sport, whether 830 00:33:36,680 --> 00:33:38,680 Speaker 2: it's going to be Steph Curry, whether it is going 831 00:33:38,680 --> 00:33:41,960 Speaker 2: to be Macklin Celebriny, but it ends up being your Barbosa's, 832 00:33:42,080 --> 00:33:44,880 Speaker 2: your living Stins, You're Eklunds, these other guys who come 833 00:33:44,920 --> 00:33:47,320 Speaker 2: up with these key moments. GP two, who was talking 834 00:33:47,320 --> 00:33:49,040 Speaker 2: about him back in the day before, he's the Warriors 835 00:33:49,120 --> 00:33:51,400 Speaker 2: and then suddenly he's a defensive stud who's now playing 836 00:33:51,400 --> 00:33:53,560 Speaker 2: the pick and roll and making everything happen like caf. 837 00:33:53,320 --> 00:33:57,040 Speaker 1: You were jt a along Siscano Anderson bro I mean, seriously, 838 00:33:57,080 --> 00:33:59,280 Speaker 1: it takes a village, it does it does It takes 839 00:33:59,280 --> 00:34:02,280 Speaker 1: a whole like Terio slid across Home played for the Giants. Yeah, 840 00:34:03,560 --> 00:34:06,320 Speaker 1: reference all sorts of guys who lead to the success 841 00:34:06,600 --> 00:34:08,319 Speaker 1: of teams like this, and I think back it's a 842 00:34:08,320 --> 00:34:10,480 Speaker 1: good comp if you're thinking Brodie Brazil at the start 843 00:34:10,520 --> 00:34:12,480 Speaker 1: of the year said to us, because I was like, 844 00:34:12,560 --> 00:34:14,239 Speaker 1: is this the year they make the jump? Because they 845 00:34:14,239 --> 00:34:17,120 Speaker 1: were still so young and so far down last year. 846 00:34:17,280 --> 00:34:19,120 Speaker 1: I don't think anybody would have been surprised if they 847 00:34:19,120 --> 00:34:21,319 Speaker 1: were out of the playoff picture right now, but like 848 00:34:21,480 --> 00:34:26,040 Speaker 1: incrementally better and instead Macklin took the jump that Steph 849 00:34:26,080 --> 00:34:28,640 Speaker 1: Curry made from the last year of Mark Jackson to 850 00:34:28,800 --> 00:34:31,000 Speaker 1: his MVP season in the first year of Steve Kirk. 851 00:34:31,239 --> 00:34:33,720 Speaker 1: But it happened way earlier. It happened in a totally 852 00:34:33,800 --> 00:34:35,840 Speaker 1: unpredictable way. And I still think by the way that 853 00:34:35,920 --> 00:34:39,279 Speaker 1: Steph's MVP year was pretty unpredictable. As good as they 854 00:34:39,280 --> 00:34:43,399 Speaker 1: were the year before, he was astronomically different. Once Steve 855 00:34:43,480 --> 00:34:45,040 Speaker 1: Kerr showed up. It was Steve Kerrs brilliant. 856 00:34:45,080 --> 00:34:46,239 Speaker 2: He said, you know what, I hate a deal with 857 00:34:46,280 --> 00:34:48,160 Speaker 2: back picks, and that's how it set up so much 858 00:34:48,200 --> 00:34:50,040 Speaker 2: space for Stef Curry and Klay Thompson. 859 00:34:50,120 --> 00:34:52,000 Speaker 1: And they just bombed away, that's all they did. He's like, 860 00:34:52,000 --> 00:34:54,359 Speaker 1: they're better than I ever was. And I was damn 861 00:34:54,400 --> 00:34:56,800 Speaker 1: good at shooting. He was great. So I look at 862 00:34:57,120 --> 00:34:58,640 Speaker 1: if you're going with the brody thought, and I think 863 00:34:58,680 --> 00:34:59,960 Speaker 1: he's off this a little bit, but he said the 864 00:35:00,320 --> 00:35:01,520 Speaker 1: and I think he also brought up with he go 865 00:35:01,560 --> 00:35:03,200 Speaker 1: the twenty twelve A's. Was there another team in there? 866 00:35:03,200 --> 00:35:05,120 Speaker 2: Twenty twelve A's were actually riffing on that the other 867 00:35:05,200 --> 00:35:07,000 Speaker 2: day because that was the year that Cespitus was in 868 00:35:07,080 --> 00:35:09,200 Speaker 2: Year one with Oakland. They started off poorly and then 869 00:35:09,200 --> 00:35:11,200 Speaker 2: towards the end of June they started getting a bunch 870 00:35:11,239 --> 00:35:13,320 Speaker 2: of walkoff wins. That was when the Bernie Leans started 871 00:35:13,760 --> 00:35:14,680 Speaker 2: and they were doing all. 872 00:35:14,600 --> 00:35:18,719 Speaker 1: The cone's that's coming on the on the final league 873 00:35:18,719 --> 00:35:21,880 Speaker 1: it's the Rangers that Angels. I'm well, they beat the 874 00:35:21,920 --> 00:35:23,920 Speaker 1: Angels in the final week again, but they beat the 875 00:35:24,000 --> 00:35:25,840 Speaker 1: Rangers for the division Maybe it was at it I 876 00:35:25,880 --> 00:35:28,400 Speaker 1: can't wait, wait where was Where was Hamilton at that point? 877 00:35:28,640 --> 00:35:30,279 Speaker 1: I think he was I think he was in he 878 00:35:30,320 --> 00:35:34,000 Speaker 1: was Okay, I think he was still in twelve. 879 00:35:34,080 --> 00:35:36,080 Speaker 2: Okay, Yeah, that's who they beat in the finals. That's 880 00:35:36,080 --> 00:35:37,440 Speaker 2: when he dropped the ball that's. 881 00:35:37,320 --> 00:35:39,600 Speaker 1: Right in the Yeah, that's right. So yeah, that was 882 00:35:39,640 --> 00:35:41,280 Speaker 1: out berning phenomenal. 883 00:35:41,360 --> 00:35:42,920 Speaker 2: That was I was talking to Brodi about this the 884 00:35:42,960 --> 00:35:44,719 Speaker 2: other day. That was one of the rare games. Game five, 885 00:35:44,719 --> 00:35:49,040 Speaker 2: when they lost to Verlander in the Divisional series. It 886 00:35:49,120 --> 00:35:51,600 Speaker 2: was the first time. What it was the first time, 887 00:35:51,840 --> 00:35:53,400 Speaker 2: and that was at the end of the game, you 888 00:35:53,440 --> 00:35:56,160 Speaker 2: had the organic let's go Oakland chance. And that's one 889 00:35:56,200 --> 00:35:58,239 Speaker 2: of the coolest things I've ever been at in terms 890 00:35:58,280 --> 00:36:01,480 Speaker 2: of sports, because you everything is so ordained and predictable 891 00:36:01,480 --> 00:36:03,040 Speaker 2: at this point. Then when you get that an organic 892 00:36:03,040 --> 00:36:05,279 Speaker 2: moment from a fan base like that, easily one of 893 00:36:05,280 --> 00:36:07,600 Speaker 2: the coolest things I've been at in my sports lifetime, 894 00:36:07,680 --> 00:36:10,759 Speaker 2: just because they lost, but the fans because it was 895 00:36:10,760 --> 00:36:13,399 Speaker 2: such a magical year, which is what the Sharks have. Yeah, 896 00:36:13,400 --> 00:36:16,000 Speaker 2: the magic about them this year, it's the Macklin magic. 897 00:36:16,040 --> 00:36:19,240 Speaker 2: It's the call on Graft magic. It has that same feel. 898 00:36:19,320 --> 00:36:21,200 Speaker 2: And now you want to go ultimate magic, you can 899 00:36:21,200 --> 00:36:23,839 Speaker 2: start talking about twenty ten. That was when saw mack 900 00:36:23,880 --> 00:36:25,080 Speaker 2: brought up particles. 901 00:36:24,680 --> 00:36:26,880 Speaker 1: To the right. So I'm thinking O. Nine Giants was 902 00:36:26,880 --> 00:36:29,239 Speaker 1: the first thought I would be my hope for this year, 903 00:36:29,480 --> 00:36:30,920 Speaker 1: and part way through the X one I found they 904 00:36:30,920 --> 00:36:33,359 Speaker 1: got to eighty eight wins. Linskem wins his first sign 905 00:36:33,440 --> 00:36:36,120 Speaker 1: his first full season. He debuted in May the year before, 906 00:36:36,320 --> 00:36:38,480 Speaker 1: actually sorry, his second season, because he debuted O seven 907 00:36:38,960 --> 00:36:41,080 Speaker 1: only wins the SI again and nine that's the eighty 908 00:36:41,080 --> 00:36:43,080 Speaker 1: eight win Giants. And by the way, broke Bochi was 909 00:36:43,120 --> 00:36:45,120 Speaker 1: in a lame duck year, third year of a three 910 00:36:45,160 --> 00:36:47,120 Speaker 1: year contract. He was brought in the last year of Bonds. 911 00:36:47,280 --> 00:36:50,040 Speaker 1: Lenskim comes up in O seven. So funny to think 912 00:36:50,040 --> 00:36:52,200 Speaker 1: Timmy cross paths with Barry I know, as did like 913 00:36:52,239 --> 00:36:54,000 Speaker 1: Brian Wilson, you know what I mean, Like it's weird. 914 00:36:54,120 --> 00:36:57,319 Speaker 1: Bottom line is that season sort of shook out what 915 00:36:57,360 --> 00:36:59,000 Speaker 1: the identity of the team was going to be. Buster 916 00:36:59,120 --> 00:37:02,640 Speaker 1: came up at the end in September. Bumgarner debuted in August. 917 00:37:03,000 --> 00:37:05,200 Speaker 2: I was covering the team for K and br back 918 00:37:05,200 --> 00:37:06,640 Speaker 2: in the day for the postgame show. 919 00:37:06,719 --> 00:37:08,600 Speaker 1: So, like the point I'm making here is like then 920 00:37:08,600 --> 00:37:10,920 Speaker 1: in ten, yeah, it's the magical run, but they brought 921 00:37:10,920 --> 00:37:13,520 Speaker 1: in the veterans to try to sprinkle around those young 922 00:37:13,520 --> 00:37:15,959 Speaker 1: guys until Buster was ready to go and in May. 923 00:37:16,040 --> 00:37:19,040 Speaker 1: So I'm thinking more about the shobbery Huff burned Marlborough 924 00:37:19,120 --> 00:37:22,279 Speaker 1: Ultra lights and drink. You signed Pat Burrell part way 925 00:37:22,280 --> 00:37:24,319 Speaker 1: through the season, Right, there's your bet. You're bringing in 926 00:37:24,440 --> 00:37:26,719 Speaker 1: the veterans in that way you get to I mean, 927 00:37:26,719 --> 00:37:28,960 Speaker 1: Benjaminina was here and then out you make the trades 928 00:37:29,000 --> 00:37:31,160 Speaker 1: at the deadline to bring in Hovey Lopez to help 929 00:37:31,160 --> 00:37:33,600 Speaker 1: bolster the bullpen, and the rest is history, of course, 930 00:37:33,640 --> 00:37:37,400 Speaker 1: but more to the point, until these young guys become 931 00:37:37,920 --> 00:37:40,480 Speaker 1: the focal point of the team, where Buster and Crawford 932 00:37:40,520 --> 00:37:43,319 Speaker 1: and Belt and Panic and Pablo were the faces of 933 00:37:43,360 --> 00:37:46,240 Speaker 1: the team and could carry the load themselves, you gotta 934 00:37:46,280 --> 00:37:48,719 Speaker 1: have the rest of this, this roster full of vets, 935 00:37:48,719 --> 00:37:51,080 Speaker 1: full of Ryan Reeves, so that he can protect until 936 00:37:51,320 --> 00:37:53,640 Speaker 1: the younger guys are old enough and veteran enough to 937 00:37:53,680 --> 00:37:54,880 Speaker 1: protect Ryan Reeves. 938 00:37:54,880 --> 00:37:57,319 Speaker 2: Copes has been the most incredible addition because he was 939 00:37:57,320 --> 00:37:59,719 Speaker 2: always in a villain role against San Jose and he 940 00:37:59,760 --> 00:38:01,480 Speaker 2: gets and I remember the first interview he did with 941 00:38:01,520 --> 00:38:04,719 Speaker 2: Dan Rusanowski. He's wearing the sweater and he goes, you know, 942 00:38:05,239 --> 00:38:07,720 Speaker 2: I look good in teel and just like the immediate 943 00:38:07,760 --> 00:38:10,200 Speaker 2: embodiment about that, because it was such the he didn't 944 00:38:10,200 --> 00:38:12,080 Speaker 2: even acknowledge the fact that he had been kind of 945 00:38:12,120 --> 00:38:15,680 Speaker 2: a heel for other teams playing against San Jose, specifically Vegas, 946 00:38:15,840 --> 00:38:17,680 Speaker 2: but he embraced it so quickly and he was like, 947 00:38:17,840 --> 00:38:20,320 Speaker 2: people don't realize how good maclin celebrity is. He's like 948 00:38:20,360 --> 00:38:23,840 Speaker 2: they're disrespecting him already. He played that card immediately, and 949 00:38:23,840 --> 00:38:26,759 Speaker 2: to watch everybody step up and have that ability to 950 00:38:26,840 --> 00:38:28,880 Speaker 2: have just the type of player who was going to 951 00:38:28,920 --> 00:38:31,120 Speaker 2: put the team on his back like only a veteran could. 952 00:38:31,480 --> 00:38:33,520 Speaker 2: That's that's the most amazing part about it. No one 953 00:38:33,560 --> 00:38:35,959 Speaker 2: saw that coming and the impact he had on the team. Again, 954 00:38:36,000 --> 00:38:39,359 Speaker 2: the veteran, the unsung hero, is now a sung hero 955 00:38:39,520 --> 00:38:41,719 Speaker 2: in Shark's lore about the big step the team has 956 00:38:41,760 --> 00:38:43,719 Speaker 2: taken this year, regardless of whether or not they make 957 00:38:43,760 --> 00:38:44,200 Speaker 2: the playoffs. 958 00:38:44,239 --> 00:38:50,319 Speaker 1: Plus, dude, ice bro shout out Joe Warrick. You know 959 00:38:50,400 --> 00:38:54,479 Speaker 1: the story about his family. His grandfather was the first 960 00:38:54,600 --> 00:38:57,040 Speaker 1: black US Marshall. I did not know. 961 00:38:57,160 --> 00:39:00,000 Speaker 2: There's there's an HBO mini series about him. 962 00:39:00,080 --> 00:39:02,200 Speaker 1: Believe does Tommy Lee Jones play him too? Probably not. 963 00:39:02,320 --> 00:39:04,239 Speaker 1: I didn't think so. That probably another way. 964 00:39:04,560 --> 00:39:06,960 Speaker 2: Look look up Boss Reeves.

He worked specifically for a. 970 00:39:19,000 --> 00:39:22,000 Speaker 1: Judge who had a nickname like the hanging judge or 971 00:39:22,000 --> 00:39:24,680 Speaker 1: something like that. There's only one way you get that. Yeah, yeah, 972 00:39:24,719 --> 00:39:29,440 Speaker 1: the hangman dude. Is it bass or boss Boss? I'm 973 00:39:29,440 --> 00:39:31,719 Speaker 1: not sure.

Gotta be great 975 00:39:33,400 --> 00:39:35,960 Speaker 1: grandfather then, because there's no way. Born in eighteen threeventy 976 00:39:36,040 --> 00:39:40,160 Speaker 1: Us Marshall gunfighter, farmer, scout, tracker, railroad agent, he escaped, 977 00:39:40,160 --> 00:39:43,799 Speaker 1: slav stud, ultimate stud. Yeah, and that's the lineage that's 978 00:39:43,840 --> 00:39:47,200 Speaker 1: going into Ryan Reeves, dude from Oklahoma. This is pretty bad. 979 00:39:47,440 --> 00:39:50,240 Speaker 1: It's quite How about being around in like eighteen ninety 980 00:39:50,280 --> 00:39:51,680 Speaker 1: and you're like six two. 981 00:39:51,840 --> 00:39:54,879 Speaker 2: Yeah, giants, it's a giant, it's a five back then 982 00:39:54,960 --> 00:39:56,839 Speaker 2: the peach basket. Just get him ready to put him 983 00:39:56,840 --> 00:39:58,360 Speaker 2: down low post up. He's going at it. 984 00:39:58,400 --> 00:40:01,880 Speaker 1: Hell yeah, Hell yeah, Bret Deputy Marshall shot on Ryan Reeves, Revo, 985 00:40:01,960 --> 00:40:04,040 Speaker 1: Adam Copeland, Ted Ramy with you from the tank. We 986 00:40:04,120 --> 00:40:06,480 Speaker 1: got plenty more to come on the Sharks. We'll talk 987 00:40:06,520 --> 00:40:08,440 Speaker 1: more about whether or not we think they're gonna end 988 00:40:08,520 --> 00:40:10,319 Speaker 1: up in the postseason. We'll take a quick break when 989 00:40:10,360 --> 00:40:13,360 Speaker 1: we come on back. Unfortunately, we gotta get into some giants. Baseball. 990 00:40:13,640 --> 00:40:15,960 Speaker 1: I'm ready to talk Giants baseball. I don't think people 991 00:40:16,040 --> 00:40:17,680 Speaker 1: like being this myf ten games in like you know, 992 00:40:17,719 --> 00:40:20,080 Speaker 1: I mean, I'm good at like it's it's ten games, 993 00:40:20,080 --> 00:40:22,160 Speaker 1: not a big deal. But I doesn't really feel like 994 00:40:22,200 --> 00:40:24,479 Speaker 1: it's ten games because it's the same dudes from last 995 00:40:24,520 --> 00:40:27,560 Speaker 1: year doing the same s or not doing the same 996 00:40:27,600 --> 00:40:28,640 Speaker 1: as from last year. 997 00:40:29,000 --> 00:40:30,879 Speaker 2: I view it as one sixteenth of the season. There's 998 00:40:30,920 --> 00:40:32,960 Speaker 2: still fifteen to sixteenths left. 999 00:40:33,000 --> 00:40:35,319 Speaker 1: That's good math, that's great, man. We'll talk about how 1000 00:40:35,360 --> 00:40:37,759 Speaker 1: poorly those could go next as a dirty work rolls 1001 00:40:37,800 --> 00:40:40,840 Speaker 1: on from the tank five forty five first pitch, Giants 1002 00:40:40,840 --> 00:40:43,239 Speaker 1: back excuse me, pregame. Giants back at it tonight for 1003 00:40:43,280 --> 00:40:45,759 Speaker 1: a six forty five first pitch, and we'll get into 1004 00:40:45,840 --> 00:40:49,440 Speaker 1: the matchup for tonight. I think it's Painter against Howser. Howser. 1005 00:40:49,680 --> 00:41:03,960 Speaker 1: Just matter, dirty work rolls on on the Sports Leader. Okay, okay, okay, 1006 00:41:04,080 --> 00:41:06,880 Speaker 1: raf Raff, just real quick, heads up. You don't have 1007 00:41:06,920 --> 00:41:09,080 Speaker 1: to hit them all every time. We could just we 1008 00:41:09,120 --> 00:41:10,960 Speaker 1: could just go like one from the tank or like 1009 00:41:11,000 --> 00:41:13,600 Speaker 1: hit the filling in for for Ramy. We good raft, 1010 00:41:13,600 --> 00:41:16,560 Speaker 1: It's all good, all right, bro, We're good we don't 1011 00:41:16,600 --> 00:41:19,919 Speaker 1: even like, you know, seven lead ins. Anyway, I think 1012 00:41:19,920 --> 00:41:22,719 Speaker 1: we got it all covered. Ramy's with me and the 1013 00:41:23,000 --> 00:41:25,799 Speaker 1: Giants were a mess. Uh. That's that's how it's going. 1014 00:41:25,800 --> 00:41:27,640 Speaker 1: As we're live from the tank. So you heard some 1015 00:41:27,680 --> 00:41:31,240 Speaker 1: of the plays there, the the error on Matt Chapman 1016 00:41:31,280 --> 00:41:32,960 Speaker 1: to throw the first base to Devs. You got Tony 1017 00:41:33,000 --> 00:41:37,480 Speaker 1: Viitello ejected, yesterday, you got Matt Chapman with uh, the 1018 00:41:37,560 --> 00:41:40,480 Speaker 1: Giants down three, nobody out in the ninth and makes 1019 00:41:40,480 --> 00:41:43,399 Speaker 1: the first out stealing second base. Where do you want 1020 00:41:43,400 --> 00:41:45,160 Speaker 1: to go? Dealer's choice? Ted, where do you want to start? 1021 00:41:45,239 --> 00:41:48,040 Speaker 2: I guess we'll go with the failed steel attempt because 1022 00:41:48,080 --> 00:41:51,759 Speaker 2: the suddenly momentum is there, you're on base. Why do 1023 00:41:51,840 --> 00:41:54,000 Speaker 2: you make that play in that moment unless you feel 1024 00:41:54,080 --> 00:41:56,160 Speaker 2: like is there some sort of thought there that there's 1025 00:41:56,200 --> 00:41:58,839 Speaker 2: not gonna be a throw? I just it doesn't. It's 1026 00:41:58,840 --> 00:42:01,640 Speaker 2: not like that specifically his game either. It was so 1027 00:42:01,800 --> 00:42:05,080 Speaker 2: overly aggressive it caught me off guard. I thought I 1028 00:42:05,200 --> 00:42:08,279 Speaker 2: misheard because I was making dinner last night, going back 1029 00:42:08,280 --> 00:42:11,759 Speaker 2: and forth between radio and TV, I thought I misheard 1030 00:42:11,800 --> 00:42:13,960 Speaker 2: who was on base. That's how confused that. 1031 00:42:14,160 --> 00:42:17,200 Speaker 1: Yeah, I I the only thing I could come up 1032 00:42:17,200 --> 00:42:19,520 Speaker 1: with in watching the game in that moment, And I 1033 00:42:19,520 --> 00:42:21,480 Speaker 1: don't know what Giants fans reactions were, who were like 1034 00:42:21,600 --> 00:42:23,759 Speaker 1: watching on TV after the way things went down, and 1035 00:42:23,760 --> 00:42:24,800 Speaker 1: they were, you know, by the way, when if I 1036 00:42:24,840 --> 00:42:27,799 Speaker 1: Teller get tossed, it's two to one at that point. Yeah, still, 1037 00:42:27,920 --> 00:42:29,719 Speaker 1: I mean, Webb left the game with the lead and 1038 00:42:29,800 --> 00:42:32,960 Speaker 1: a ton of runs. What was I didn't hear what 1039 00:42:33,000 --> 00:42:33,640 Speaker 1: he said afterwards? 1040 00:42:33,760 --> 00:42:35,400 Speaker 2: No, why I said why he got tossed because it 1041 00:42:35,440 --> 00:42:36,640 Speaker 2: had been a problem at Oh. 1042 00:42:37,040 --> 00:42:38,719 Speaker 1: We'll get to that a little bit later on and 1043 00:42:38,800 --> 00:42:42,680 Speaker 1: on what happened, But like when he was tossed, they 1044 00:42:42,680 --> 00:42:45,440 Speaker 1: were still up at that point. When Chapman got thrown out, 1045 00:42:45,520 --> 00:42:48,239 Speaker 1: my only thought was what first I was he did 1046 00:42:48,280 --> 00:42:50,760 Speaker 1: that on his own? Yeah, nobody called for him to steal, 1047 00:42:50,880 --> 00:42:52,239 Speaker 1: Because I want to go back and look at it. 1048 00:42:52,239 --> 00:42:53,640 Speaker 1: I'm pretty sure it was like it was either a 1049 00:42:53,640 --> 00:42:57,160 Speaker 1: one one count or a or a two ozer count. Like, 1050 00:42:57,200 --> 00:42:58,960 Speaker 1: I don't think it was a good steal count. No, 1051 00:42:59,040 --> 00:43:00,640 Speaker 1: I mean, if it's one one, maybe you think he's 1052 00:43:00,640 --> 00:43:02,440 Speaker 1: gonna go off speed or something. But even then your 1053 00:43:02,480 --> 00:43:04,520 Speaker 1: run doesn't matter. So the only thing I could think 1054 00:43:04,560 --> 00:43:06,040 Speaker 1: of was does he think he's gonna get like a 1055 00:43:06,080 --> 00:43:08,640 Speaker 1: defensive indifference here, like they're not gonna attempt to throw 1056 00:43:08,640 --> 00:43:10,480 Speaker 1: it down, But why would would that be the case 1057 00:43:10,520 --> 00:43:12,080 Speaker 1: they need you on. Maybe he's trying to stand out 1058 00:43:12,080 --> 00:43:16,160 Speaker 1: of a double play. Either way, it's unfathomable. Not that 1059 00:43:16,280 --> 00:43:18,520 Speaker 1: five to two games, I don't understand. 1060 00:43:18,800 --> 00:43:20,719 Speaker 2: Maybe if it had been tied, maybe they just say 1061 00:43:21,000 --> 00:43:23,200 Speaker 2: let's play it safe and maybe don't make the throw 1062 00:43:23,280 --> 00:43:26,080 Speaker 2: something like that. But in that situation, nothing about it 1063 00:43:26,120 --> 00:43:28,279 Speaker 2: made any sense to me, and he never talked about 1064 00:43:28,280 --> 00:43:31,080 Speaker 2: it after the game, so I am sure at least 1065 00:43:31,080 --> 00:43:33,719 Speaker 2: if he did, I missed it. So but yeah, that 1066 00:43:33,880 --> 00:43:36,680 Speaker 2: was such a baffling play, And it goes back to 1067 00:43:36,680 --> 00:43:38,960 Speaker 2: the points like that's why you need to have your 1068 00:43:38,960 --> 00:43:41,120 Speaker 2: manager in the game at that point like that, I 1069 00:43:41,160 --> 00:43:44,000 Speaker 2: love that Tony got fired up. I love that he 1070 00:43:44,040 --> 00:43:46,120 Speaker 2: was fighting for his guy, But that's one of those 1071 00:43:46,160 --> 00:43:49,040 Speaker 2: learning moments, like you gotta pick your spots, especially if 1072 00:43:49,040 --> 00:43:50,840 Speaker 2: the season is off to a rough start. 1073 00:43:51,000 --> 00:43:54,279 Speaker 1: This isn't the moment to a get tossed. And it's 1074 00:43:54,280 --> 00:43:55,640 Speaker 1: also in a tight. 1075 00:43:55,480 --> 00:43:56,840 Speaker 2: Game, you need to make sure that you're there to 1076 00:43:56,880 --> 00:43:59,440 Speaker 2: manage the bullpen, manage everything that's going on, and then 1077 00:43:59,480 --> 00:44:02,279 Speaker 2: you leads to the Chaman play, which again still makes 1078 00:44:02,320 --> 00:44:02,840 Speaker 2: no sense to me. 1079 00:44:02,880 --> 00:44:04,239 Speaker 1: By the way, it was a it was a one 1080 00:44:04,280 --> 00:44:06,520 Speaker 1: to one count when Chapman stole, but it was almost 1081 00:44:06,520 --> 00:44:08,359 Speaker 1: a pitch out ninety four mile an hours, like high 1082 00:44:08,360 --> 00:44:11,120 Speaker 1: and outside, and he just threw down. It was against Devers, 1083 00:44:11,120 --> 00:44:13,320 Speaker 1: by the way. Devers is at the plate at that point. 1084 00:44:13,400 --> 00:44:16,200 Speaker 1: So the Vitello ejection, we'll get into that in just 1085 00:44:16,200 --> 00:44:19,600 Speaker 1: a minute. But I don't know what he was seeing, 1086 00:44:19,600 --> 00:44:22,359 Speaker 1: because when I saw the replay, I thought it's absolutely 1087 00:44:22,400 --> 00:44:26,239 Speaker 1: the right call. I mean, and Cardassio never establishes the 1088 00:44:26,280 --> 00:44:29,759 Speaker 1: running lane. Now, if you get ejected for that on 1089 00:44:29,800 --> 00:44:31,600 Speaker 1: a play between first and second or a play between 1090 00:44:31,600 --> 00:44:34,920 Speaker 1: second and third, it's much harder and more difficult from 1091 00:44:34,920 --> 00:44:36,840 Speaker 1: where Vitell is standing in the dugout to see the 1092 00:44:36,840 --> 00:44:39,399 Speaker 1: depth in the angle at which the player is running at. Also, 1093 00:44:40,200 --> 00:44:43,040 Speaker 1: running lanes are established differently in between the base paths. 1094 00:44:43,320 --> 00:44:45,440 Speaker 1: Out of the box. You're running lane is just that 1095 00:44:45,600 --> 00:44:47,680 Speaker 1: on a ground ball, you've got to be in that lane. 1096 00:44:47,719 --> 00:44:50,360 Speaker 1: That's why that's painted there in the chalk on the ground, 1097 00:44:50,440 --> 00:44:52,439 Speaker 1: so that you stay in the lane. You can't step 1098 00:44:52,440 --> 00:44:54,200 Speaker 1: on the inside. If there's a little bunt, you can 1099 00:44:54,200 --> 00:44:56,160 Speaker 1: be way outside if you want. If you're taking a 1100 00:44:56,239 --> 00:44:58,719 Speaker 1: run because the throw is gonna come in, then come in. 1101 00:44:58,760 --> 00:45:00,400 Speaker 1: You can't do that, so I I thought it was 1102 00:45:00,400 --> 00:45:03,480 Speaker 1: absolutely the right call. He gave a reason. I think 1103 00:45:03,520 --> 00:45:04,920 Speaker 1: we might have it here. I can't remember if this 1104 00:45:04,920 --> 00:45:06,520 Speaker 1: is one of the ones I lined up. I do 1105 00:45:06,560 --> 00:45:09,120 Speaker 1: want to hear from Vitello. Here it is Rafe's got 1106 00:45:09,120 --> 00:45:11,239 Speaker 1: it back at the studio. Here's Tony Vitello on the 1107 00:45:11,239 --> 00:45:12,880 Speaker 1: play that got him ejected. I didn't think he was 1108 00:45:12,920 --> 00:45:15,080 Speaker 1: just trying to fire up his guys. I thought he 1109 00:45:15,160 --> 00:45:16,680 Speaker 1: really thought he was right. And then when I saw 1110 00:45:16,719 --> 00:45:19,080 Speaker 1: the replay, I was like, he's wrong. It was the 1111 00:45:19,160 --> 00:45:21,280 Speaker 1: right call. Here's what vi Tellis said. 1112 00:45:21,480 --> 00:45:24,839 Speaker 3: Dead in line with where I was standing. And the 1113 00:45:24,840 --> 00:45:27,440 Speaker 3: throw was missed arm side, which often happens. Well, you 1114 00:45:27,480 --> 00:45:29,440 Speaker 3: guys just got done, and the fans got done talking 1115 00:45:29,440 --> 00:45:32,719 Speaker 3: about for three days a throw that missed armside and 1116 00:45:32,800 --> 00:45:36,359 Speaker 3: our first baseman, you know, the ball, a big dude 1117 00:45:36,560 --> 00:45:38,840 Speaker 3: in the first basement, all or meeting at the same time. 1118 00:45:39,360 --> 00:45:41,360 Speaker 3: It's part of the game. I wish there was a 1119 00:45:41,360 --> 00:45:43,960 Speaker 3: solution that would remove it, but I just went through 1120 00:45:43,960 --> 00:45:46,680 Speaker 3: a deal where they have two bases at first base, 1121 00:45:46,719 --> 00:45:48,880 Speaker 3: which not my place to say. None of the players 1122 00:45:49,000 --> 00:45:52,719 Speaker 3: like that, but that doesn't solve the issue. Maybe eliminate 1123 00:45:52,800 --> 00:45:55,200 Speaker 3: some collisions a little bit. Don't ever want to see 1124 00:45:55,200 --> 00:45:57,880 Speaker 3: anybody get hurt. But when the ball and the first 1125 00:45:57,880 --> 00:46:01,240 Speaker 3: basement and you know, the get there at the same time, 1126 00:46:01,560 --> 00:46:03,840 Speaker 3: that's the closest we'll ever get to football now that 1127 00:46:03,880 --> 00:46:05,960 Speaker 3: you can't take out the catcher, which is fortunate that 1128 00:46:05,960 --> 00:46:08,640 Speaker 3: that's removed as well. So I didn't watch the replay, 1129 00:46:08,719 --> 00:46:11,200 Speaker 3: like I said, I saw it from a great angle. 1130 00:46:11,840 --> 00:46:14,319 Speaker 3: Umpire couldn't have been better with balls and strikes. I'm 1131 00:46:14,320 --> 00:46:17,840 Speaker 3: sure he got it exactly technically right. It's just a play. 1132 00:46:18,040 --> 00:46:20,480 Speaker 3: I've got a lot of history for a little frustrated 1133 00:46:20,520 --> 00:46:22,920 Speaker 3: about something else that occurred in the game, and then 1134 00:46:23,120 --> 00:46:25,080 Speaker 3: we're dying to get Jo in the game. I think 1135 00:46:25,120 --> 00:46:27,840 Speaker 3: you guys are too. In my mind, we lost a 1136 00:46:27,880 --> 00:46:29,800 Speaker 3: double there, so there's a little bit of frustration. 1137 00:46:31,200 --> 00:46:35,680 Speaker 1: I was just trying to get Jo. I don't know 1138 00:46:35,719 --> 00:46:39,160 Speaker 1: what his explanation was. I had some sounds to me 1139 00:46:39,200 --> 00:46:42,200 Speaker 1: like the end of his statement was based on something 1140 00:46:42,239 --> 00:46:43,600 Speaker 1: else that happened earlier in the game kind of had 1141 00:46:43,600 --> 00:46:46,600 Speaker 1: my own things going on. Well, yeah, but I don't understand. 1142 00:46:46,600 --> 00:46:48,480 Speaker 1: Like he said, he probably made the right call. I 1143 00:46:48,520 --> 00:46:50,400 Speaker 1: don't know what he was seeing or what his reasoning was, 1144 00:46:50,440 --> 00:46:52,040 Speaker 1: and I don't know. 1145 00:46:52,239 --> 00:46:53,960 Speaker 2: That's why I think he's trying to fire up his 1146 00:46:54,040 --> 00:46:56,000 Speaker 2: guys and that it's not just about fighting for his guys. 1147 00:46:56,000 --> 00:46:58,400 Speaker 2: It's about trying to inject some life to try and 1148 00:46:58,400 --> 00:47:00,000 Speaker 2: make sure that a little bit of a spark is there. 1149 00:47:00,080 --> 00:47:03,399 Speaker 2: But it led to the outcome you wanted least of all. 1150 00:47:03,440 --> 00:47:06,799 Speaker 2: And now everyone's talking about how the team has only 1151 00:47:06,920 --> 00:47:10,200 Speaker 2: won three games. Their run differential is very very poor. 1152 00:47:09,960 --> 00:47:12,600 Speaker 1: Twenty so they're they're the worst run differential. I'll give 1153 00:47:12,600 --> 00:47:14,239 Speaker 1: you the notes right here on the hitting three and 1154 00:47:14,320 --> 00:47:16,719 Speaker 1: seven record. It's tied for their second worst through ten 1155 00:47:16,760 --> 00:47:19,480 Speaker 1: games since moving to San Francisco. Twenty six runs total, 1156 00:47:19,560 --> 00:47:22,560 Speaker 1: or tied for third fewest ever in franchise history through 1157 00:47:22,600 --> 00:47:24,960 Speaker 1: ten games. They had twenty five and twenty nineteen and 1158 00:47:25,000 --> 00:47:28,600 Speaker 1: twenty two in nineteen twenty, you know what I mean, 1159 00:47:28,719 --> 00:47:32,840 Speaker 1: or like thirty years before Jackie Robinson broke the color barrier. Anyway, 1160 00:47:33,160 --> 00:47:36,279 Speaker 1: like the other numbers, here are twenty six total runs 1161 00:47:36,320 --> 00:47:39,640 Speaker 1: on the season. Through ten games, they scored nine in 1162 00:47:39,680 --> 00:47:41,440 Speaker 1: a game in seven in a game, so they had 1163 00:47:41,480 --> 00:47:43,719 Speaker 1: sixteen over two games. Yeah, which means in the other 1164 00:47:43,760 --> 00:47:47,640 Speaker 1: eight they have a total of ten runs score. They've 1165 00:47:47,680 --> 00:47:50,120 Speaker 1: been terrible. They're the worst in the league in run differential. 1166 00:47:50,200 --> 00:47:52,920 Speaker 1: They have the worst record in the National League. And furthermore, 1167 00:47:53,880 --> 00:47:56,000 Speaker 1: I mean that's the can't hit. They're not playing defense well, 1168 00:47:56,239 --> 00:47:58,560 Speaker 1: they don't really have a first baseman. The bullpen is 1169 00:47:58,640 --> 00:48:00,799 Speaker 1: unproven and not nearly as good in this series as 1170 00:48:00,800 --> 00:48:03,160 Speaker 1: it was in the previous two series. They don't have 1171 00:48:03,160 --> 00:48:06,920 Speaker 1: a closer. I mean, what's to believe? And I know 1172 00:48:06,960 --> 00:48:09,600 Speaker 1: we're ten in, but it's a lot of the same player. 1173 00:48:09,680 --> 00:48:11,239 Speaker 1: The only two guys in the lineup that are different 1174 00:48:11,280 --> 00:48:14,000 Speaker 1: from last year are better in a rise. Those aren't 1175 00:48:14,040 --> 00:48:15,919 Speaker 1: two like you didn't bring over Kyle Tucker and Kyle 1176 00:48:15,920 --> 00:48:18,200 Speaker 1: Schwarber and say, oh man, they're doing the same stuff 1177 00:48:18,200 --> 00:48:21,480 Speaker 1: with these big bats. So what's to believe this team 1178 00:48:21,960 --> 00:48:23,800 Speaker 1: will be better than they were last year. 1179 00:48:24,160 --> 00:48:26,600 Speaker 2: That's the whole reason they brought in Vytello, though, is 1180 00:48:26,640 --> 00:48:28,600 Speaker 2: to try and get them out of the doldrums that 1181 00:48:28,600 --> 00:48:30,520 Speaker 2: they felt Bob Melvin was not able to do so, 1182 00:48:30,560 --> 00:48:32,560 Speaker 2: but that just might come back to the same point 1183 00:48:32,600 --> 00:48:35,000 Speaker 2: because it is so much of the same lineup, why 1184 00:48:35,000 --> 00:48:36,680 Speaker 2: should we believe it is going to be any different? 1185 00:48:37,360 --> 00:48:40,040 Speaker 2: And I have to give it more time. Ten games 1186 00:48:40,120 --> 00:48:43,320 Speaker 2: is way too small a sample size. I understand everybody 1187 00:48:43,360 --> 00:48:46,959 Speaker 2: who's upset right now, though, because it rhymes with last 1188 00:48:47,040 --> 00:48:47,759 Speaker 2: year so much. 1189 00:48:47,880 --> 00:48:50,440 Speaker 1: This is the same thing. It feels like a continuing. 1190 00:48:50,239 --> 00:48:52,120 Speaker 2: Right after Devers came over and they went into that 1191 00:48:52,160 --> 00:48:54,839 Speaker 2: cold slump during the summer. This was that yesterday's game 1192 00:48:54,840 --> 00:48:57,440 Speaker 2: was a game we saw over and over and over again, and. 1193 00:48:57,360 --> 00:48:59,960 Speaker 1: I think that's why people are having such a strong reaction. 1194 00:49:00,080 --> 00:49:00,920 Speaker 1: It's like, what this is? 1195 00:49:01,000 --> 00:49:03,520 Speaker 2: There is no difference here, And then when you add 1196 00:49:03,520 --> 00:49:06,239 Speaker 2: in maybe an error there by by Tello in terms 1197 00:49:06,280 --> 00:49:08,520 Speaker 2: of aalues reacting to a situation, it just ticks off 1198 00:49:08,520 --> 00:49:09,200 Speaker 2: people even more. 1199 00:49:09,680 --> 00:49:11,880 Speaker 1: Yeah, so I'm with you. So where I'm at is like, 1200 00:49:11,960 --> 00:49:13,880 Speaker 1: I don't know how much you can expect from Vitello 1201 00:49:13,920 --> 00:49:16,120 Speaker 1: because this was something I struggled He was not the issue. 1202 00:49:16,120 --> 00:49:18,759 Speaker 1: It's something I struggled with last year with Melvin. To 1203 00:49:18,840 --> 00:49:21,360 Speaker 1: your point is that people go, well, so because I didn't, 1204 00:49:21,400 --> 00:49:24,680 Speaker 1: I thought it wasn't working with Melvin and people were going, well, 1205 00:49:24,800 --> 00:49:27,920 Speaker 1: what's the difference, Like you fire him? Then what managers 1206 00:49:27,960 --> 00:49:31,040 Speaker 1: don't you know? Take the swings. Managers don't have that 1207 00:49:31,200 --> 00:49:33,319 Speaker 1: huge of an impact outside of building it and what 1208 00:49:33,360 --> 00:49:36,920 Speaker 1: you do in game manager like base stealing, being aggressive, whatever, 1209 00:49:37,640 --> 00:49:40,120 Speaker 1: it's not Kyle Shanahan saying, I can scheme up differently 1210 00:49:40,160 --> 00:49:42,959 Speaker 1: against this team. I have an actual fingerprint on the game, 1211 00:49:43,200 --> 00:49:45,960 Speaker 1: which then comes back to the players making plays. Boachi 1212 00:49:46,040 --> 00:49:48,239 Speaker 1: looks great with all of his decisions when the when 1213 00:49:48,239 --> 00:49:51,000 Speaker 1: the bullpen finds their roles and he knows which guys 1214 00:49:51,040 --> 00:49:52,200 Speaker 1: to go to and when they get out, you go, 1215 00:49:52,239 --> 00:49:55,040 Speaker 1: man Bach is a whiz, and then that bullpen does that, 1216 00:49:55,120 --> 00:49:56,920 Speaker 1: I do it. You're only as good as your players perform. 1217 00:49:57,160 --> 00:49:59,160 Speaker 1: So then I look back and I go, it's only 1218 00:49:59,200 --> 00:50:02,759 Speaker 1: ten games, But what are the redeeming qualities of this team? 1219 00:50:03,080 --> 00:50:05,400 Speaker 1: What are they good at if they're at their best? 1220 00:50:05,760 --> 00:50:09,440 Speaker 1: What is their identity? And that's something I question, like, 1221 00:50:09,480 --> 00:50:11,799 Speaker 1: if we didn't have it last year, what makes you 1222 00:50:11,840 --> 00:50:14,160 Speaker 1: believe it's gonna happen in a second year? It does? 1223 00:50:14,200 --> 00:50:15,880 Speaker 1: Buster look at last year and go, well, it was 1224 00:50:15,920 --> 00:50:18,040 Speaker 1: just kind of an anomaly. Well, if we played better 1225 00:50:18,080 --> 00:50:21,120 Speaker 1: defense in the outfield, we'll be a playoff team incrementally 1226 00:50:21,160 --> 00:50:24,920 Speaker 1: by three more wins. Cops, other than the hitting, pitching, bullpen, fielding, 1227 00:50:25,080 --> 00:50:28,080 Speaker 1: they're great. Do you remember we used to have this 1228 00:50:28,120 --> 00:50:30,160 Speaker 1: sound but it's probably in the system somewhere of Todd 1229 00:50:30,200 --> 00:50:31,880 Speaker 1: Munkin when he got hired by the Ravens to be 1230 00:50:31,920 --> 00:50:34,080 Speaker 1: their O coordinator, and we played this sound by because 1231 00:50:34,080 --> 00:50:36,279 Speaker 1: somebody asked them, like, how do you expect the offense? Like, 1232 00:50:36,360 --> 00:50:38,520 Speaker 1: what's the key to a good offense? He's like, well, 1233 00:50:38,560 --> 00:50:40,520 Speaker 1: we plan to pick up a first downs, we plan 1234 00:50:40,600 --> 00:50:41,960 Speaker 1: to be better on third down. We plan to have 1235 00:50:41,960 --> 00:50:43,480 Speaker 1: a high fitch see in the red zone that we're 1236 00:50:43,480 --> 00:50:45,080 Speaker 1: gonna run the ball well, but balance that a little 1237 00:50:45,080 --> 00:50:46,600 Speaker 1: bit with the passing game. We can do all that 1238 00:50:46,680 --> 00:50:47,840 Speaker 1: scoring in the red zone. We think we'll be a 1239 00:50:47,840 --> 00:50:50,600 Speaker 1: top five offense. Like, yeah, if you do things top 1240 00:50:50,640 --> 00:50:52,680 Speaker 1: five offenses do, you'll be a top five offense. Me 1241 00:50:52,760 --> 00:50:55,239 Speaker 1: playing Madden, you brought it in a centerfielder who was 1242 00:50:55,239 --> 00:50:58,200 Speaker 1: a defensive centerfielder off of his best offensive season where 1243 00:50:58,239 --> 00:51:00,239 Speaker 1: he struck out one hundred and thirty eight times. If 1244 00:51:00,239 --> 00:51:02,239 Speaker 1: the guy you signed to be a difference maker is 1245 00:51:02,280 --> 00:51:04,680 Speaker 1: Batten seven. How big of a difference maker is he? 1246 00:51:04,800 --> 00:51:07,359 Speaker 1: So Like, you know, we can talk all we want 1247 00:51:07,400 --> 00:51:09,799 Speaker 1: about Daniel Susach's not getting at bats, he's not using 1248 00:51:09,800 --> 00:51:13,800 Speaker 1: the bench AEF. None of that matters when Chapman's not hitting, 1249 00:51:13,920 --> 00:51:17,400 Speaker 1: when Devers is certainly not hitting, when jung Uli is 1250 00:51:17,680 --> 00:51:21,480 Speaker 1: the most underachieving, expensive player, maybe offensively the Giants have 1251 00:51:21,520 --> 00:51:23,040 Speaker 1: ever had to this part of his time. 1252 00:51:23,080 --> 00:51:25,080 Speaker 2: I know we got to get out, but I do 1253 00:51:25,160 --> 00:51:28,160 Speaker 2: want to point out this is why I'm not overreacting 1254 00:51:28,160 --> 00:51:30,239 Speaker 2: to Vtello and the decision making so far, because he 1255 00:51:30,280 --> 00:51:31,920 Speaker 2: has to figure out who his guys are. Yeah, and 1256 00:51:32,000 --> 00:51:33,719 Speaker 2: he has to understand what they are and how much 1257 00:51:33,760 --> 00:51:37,960 Speaker 2: of last year or even seasons prior are indicative of 1258 00:51:38,080 --> 00:51:41,520 Speaker 2: it not being applied correctly, or if there are changes 1259 00:51:41,520 --> 00:51:43,480 Speaker 2: and there are sus sacks that need to get more 1260 00:51:43,520 --> 00:51:45,680 Speaker 2: at bats per se. Yes, I think you got to 1261 00:51:45,719 --> 00:51:47,880 Speaker 2: give him time to figure out what they are. And 1262 00:51:47,960 --> 00:51:50,520 Speaker 2: right now those answers are being made abundantly clear to 1263 00:51:50,600 --> 00:51:52,680 Speaker 2: him that he's probably got to make some changes. But 1264 00:51:52,719 --> 00:51:54,239 Speaker 2: you've got to give him a little bit of time 1265 00:51:54,239 --> 00:51:55,399 Speaker 2: to figure out who these guys are. 1266 00:51:55,400 --> 00:51:56,680 Speaker 1: I want to be clear, it's ten games, and we 1267 00:51:56,760 --> 00:51:59,440 Speaker 1: keep saying that. I don't think I'm overreacting because I'm 1268 00:51:59,480 --> 00:52:02,200 Speaker 1: talking about what's happened in the ten They don't look 1269 00:52:02,239 --> 00:52:04,520 Speaker 1: good and they don't look much different than they were 1270 00:52:04,600 --> 00:52:07,360 Speaker 1: last year. Somebody accused me of overreacting on Twitter. I 1271 00:52:07,400 --> 00:52:09,520 Speaker 1: was like, dude, they radio host. I said, they don't 1272 00:52:09,560 --> 00:52:12,319 Speaker 1: look good. Like, if you serve me a steak, can 1273 00:52:12,360 --> 00:52:14,520 Speaker 1: I take a bite? I'm like, this isn't very good. 1274 00:52:15,560 --> 00:52:17,520 Speaker 1: They're like, you better finish that steak before you tell 1275 00:52:17,560 --> 00:52:19,400 Speaker 1: me that's an overreact. 1276 00:52:19,000 --> 00:52:21,399 Speaker 2: Send it back. I fear the send back. I'm taking 1277 00:52:21,400 --> 00:52:22,359 Speaker 2: the l and getting out of there. 1278 00:52:22,400 --> 00:52:23,960 Speaker 1: No, I'm just saying, do yeah, I need a Demi 1279 00:52:23,960 --> 00:52:26,160 Speaker 1: glaze or some horse radish or something on this on 1280 00:52:26,239 --> 00:52:29,239 Speaker 1: this giant's tough steak to get this thing palatable. So 1281 00:52:29,400 --> 00:52:30,879 Speaker 1: we'll come back to this. We'll get to your thoughts 1282 00:52:30,920 --> 00:52:32,840 Speaker 1: at eight away, K and br But why don't we 1283 00:52:32,840 --> 00:52:34,360 Speaker 1: get back into something a little bit more positive and 1284 00:52:34,400 --> 00:52:37,320 Speaker 1: exciting here down the stretch. Some Sharks hockey Max Miller 1285 00:52:37,520 --> 00:52:39,440 Speaker 1: is going to join us.
