Speaker 1: Holy content, Batman, So much good stuff happening in sports.

8
00:00:30,960 --> 00:00:34,199
Speaker 1: I mean, Friday was absolutely bonkers in the NFL. I'll

9
00:00:34,240 --> 00:00:35,960
Speaker 1: tell you why the hell all those trades went down.

10
00:00:36,720 --> 00:00:39,360
Speaker 1: NBA had a wild night of action. I missed it though,

11
00:00:39,400 --> 00:00:42,960
Speaker 1: because I was at a comedy show. Big huge news, folks.

12
00:00:43,200 --> 00:00:46,600
Speaker 1: Los Angeles is kind of open. Yeah. Remember how you

13
00:00:46,600 --> 00:00:49,320
Speaker 1: guys were going to restaurants like seven months ago indoors

14
00:00:50,000 --> 00:00:52,720
Speaker 1: and then they closed everything down around the nation and

15
00:00:52,720 --> 00:00:55,400
Speaker 1: you were like, we can't eat indoors or anything. And

16
00:00:55,680 --> 00:00:57,680
Speaker 1: I was like, yeah, that's been Los Angeles for the

17
00:00:57,720 --> 00:01:01,840
Speaker 1: better part of a year. So finally things are opening up.

18
00:01:01,920 --> 00:01:06,240
Speaker 1: Your boy got the vaccine this week. Oh yeah, so

19
00:01:06,360 --> 00:01:09,759
Speaker 1: fired up? I know. It's this is like an inside

20
00:01:09,760 --> 00:01:12,440
Speaker 1: baseball that nobody cares about. And I probably shouldn't share it,

21
00:01:13,160 --> 00:01:16,520
Speaker 1: but you know, um, we kind of you. I like

22
00:01:16,600 --> 00:01:18,960
Speaker 1: Instagram now more than I do Twitter. It's probably been

23
00:01:19,000 --> 00:01:21,120
Speaker 1: like for the last six months to a year. And

24
00:01:21,200 --> 00:01:23,840
Speaker 1: so I post the vaccine photo on Instagram because you're

25
00:01:23,880 --> 00:01:26,600
Speaker 1: like contractually obligated to do that, like they put the

26
00:01:26,600 --> 00:01:28,360
Speaker 1: shot in your arm and they're like, hey, you're gonna

27
00:01:28,400 --> 00:01:31,720
Speaker 1: post this on the Graham right. I was like, sure, okay,

28
00:01:31,760 --> 00:01:34,760
Speaker 1: if I have to, and I posted, and then I

29
00:01:34,760 --> 00:01:37,200
Speaker 1: started losing followers, and I think there's a bunch of

30
00:01:37,240 --> 00:01:40,319
Speaker 1: people out there who are like, oh, don't get the vaccine, folks.

31
00:01:40,400 --> 00:01:42,080
Speaker 1: I got the vaccine and I had a great week.

32
00:01:42,560 --> 00:01:47,080
Speaker 1: I'm like doing things. Kevin got the vaccine, everybody's getting it,

33
00:01:47,120 --> 00:01:48,800
Speaker 1: and we're like doing stuff. I went to a comedy

34
00:01:48,840 --> 00:01:51,280
Speaker 1: show last night because guess what, had to get the

35
00:01:51,320 --> 00:01:54,480
Speaker 1: vaccine because I got family in town. I'm like seeing

36
00:01:54,560 --> 00:01:58,400
Speaker 1: people like humans are in our house. It's like an

37
00:01:58,440 --> 00:02:01,120
Speaker 1: awesome feeling. I'm just geek. Oh yeah, and there's a

38
00:02:01,120 --> 00:02:04,640
Speaker 1: sweet sixteen today. Anyways, so we go to this comedy

39
00:02:04,640 --> 00:02:08,600
Speaker 1: show last night and I'm my brother's way into comedy.

40
00:02:08,639 --> 00:02:10,519
Speaker 1: He knows like all these guys is like all this

41
00:02:10,560 --> 00:02:13,680
Speaker 1: show is gonna be sick. This guy's incredible, and I

42
00:02:13,680 --> 00:02:15,280
Speaker 1: I go, I've go into a couple so I know

43
00:02:15,400 --> 00:02:17,880
Speaker 1: some of these guys. Gavin is a monster comedy fan,

44
00:02:18,120 --> 00:02:21,520
Speaker 1: so as soon as uh he heard Bill Burr was headlining,

45
00:02:21,520 --> 00:02:23,800
Speaker 1: He's like, oh my gosh, Bill Burr's a legend. I

46
00:02:23,840 --> 00:02:25,760
Speaker 1: don't know too much about Bill Burr. I know he's

47
00:02:25,760 --> 00:02:27,520
Speaker 1: been on the Herd a couple of times. Bill Burke

48
00:02:27,600 --> 00:02:30,680
Speaker 1: crushed last night, like he had all the best lines.

49
00:02:31,120 --> 00:02:33,520
Speaker 1: He was super angry, and I just have to say

50
00:02:33,560 --> 00:02:36,840
Speaker 1: it felt good being outside. Yes, it was socially distanced.

51
00:02:36,840 --> 00:02:40,680
Speaker 1: It was an outdoor uh event, and I mean, I'm

52
00:02:40,720 --> 00:02:43,480
Speaker 1: laughing at Boto. Bill Burr was great. This woman Eliza

53
00:02:43,560 --> 00:02:47,000
Speaker 1: Slessinger was hilarious, and uh, there was a couple other

54
00:02:47,000 --> 00:02:49,680
Speaker 1: big name people that David Spade um. But it was

55
00:02:49,720 --> 00:02:51,760
Speaker 1: just a great night of comedy. This is like an

56
00:02:51,760 --> 00:02:55,880
Speaker 1: awesome weekend. You get Friday, NFL trades, you had the

57
00:02:56,040 --> 00:03:00,160
Speaker 1: NBA trade deadline went down on Thursday. We'll talk about

58
00:03:00,160 --> 00:03:03,640
Speaker 1: that and Sweet sixteen this weekend. My picks in the

59
00:03:03,639 --> 00:03:06,080
Speaker 1: first two rounds I do. I'm betting every game for

60
00:03:06,120 --> 00:03:09,560
Speaker 1: Fox Sports, and of course I'm hitting like through the

61
00:03:09,600 --> 00:03:11,359
Speaker 1: first two rounds, so I'm geeked to give out more

62
00:03:11,400 --> 00:03:13,400
Speaker 1: picks today. We'll do that, but we gotta start the

63
00:03:13,440 --> 00:03:17,360
Speaker 1: show with what the hell happened on Friday in the NFL.

64
00:03:17,800 --> 00:03:21,119
Speaker 1: It was, this is just a great week for sports

65
00:03:21,280 --> 00:03:23,400
Speaker 1: and we're not even close to the NFL Draft when

66
00:03:24,320 --> 00:03:27,840
Speaker 1: the biggest name could be moved to Shaun Watson. More

67
00:03:27,919 --> 00:03:31,280
Speaker 1: maybe on that later, who knows what's happening on that front.

68
00:03:31,280 --> 00:03:34,960
Speaker 1: But I actually think the reason the Miami Dolphins swung

69
00:03:35,040 --> 00:03:39,560
Speaker 1: that big trade moving out of three is because there

70
00:03:39,640 --> 00:03:42,200
Speaker 1: is so much uncertainty around Deshaun Watson. They were like,

71
00:03:42,200 --> 00:03:44,960
Speaker 1: you know what, I don't know that that's gonna be

72
00:03:45,000 --> 00:03:48,320
Speaker 1: ironed out here anytime soon. I think we've just got

73
00:03:48,320 --> 00:03:51,240
Speaker 1: to decide we're gonna roll with Tua. And the San

74
00:03:51,280 --> 00:03:55,680
Speaker 1: Francisco forty Niners are now picking third in the NFL Draft,

75
00:03:55,680 --> 00:03:57,040
Speaker 1: and you're like, well, wait to say, why would the

76
00:03:57,040 --> 00:04:01,240
Speaker 1: forty Niners want to pick third? And you know this

77
00:04:01,320 --> 00:04:03,600
Speaker 1: is a forty Niners franchise two years ago that was

78
00:04:03,640 --> 00:04:07,240
Speaker 1: in the Super Bowl. They went thirteen and three, and

79
00:04:07,280 --> 00:04:08,920
Speaker 1: then they kind of had to take what I'm joking

80
00:04:08,960 --> 00:04:11,520
Speaker 1: as a gap year last year because everybody on the

81
00:04:11,560 --> 00:04:15,400
Speaker 1: defense was injured. Bosa went down, Solomon Thomas went down.

82
00:04:16,040 --> 00:04:18,479
Speaker 1: Anyone of value on that defense was injured last year

83
00:04:18,720 --> 00:04:20,680
Speaker 1: and they still were able to win six games because

84
00:04:20,760 --> 00:04:25,920
Speaker 1: Kyle Shanahan is that dude. But the question becomes, will

85
00:04:25,960 --> 00:04:31,720
Speaker 1: wait a sick? The entire off season San Francisco was like,

86
00:04:32,320 --> 00:04:36,120
Speaker 1: anybody interested in Jimmy g quietly because we may make

87
00:04:36,160 --> 00:04:38,920
Speaker 1: a run at Remember Matthew Stafford was rumored to be

88
00:04:38,960 --> 00:04:43,640
Speaker 1: in the mix for the forty nine and Deshaun Watson

89
00:04:44,200 --> 00:04:47,440
Speaker 1: rumored to be in the mix. Well, Matt Stafford ends

90
00:04:47,520 --> 00:04:51,400
Speaker 1: up going to the Rams. Jimmy g Oh, we gotta

91
00:04:51,400 --> 00:04:53,720
Speaker 1: hold on to he's our guy. And then all of

92
00:04:53,800 --> 00:04:55,320
Speaker 1: a sudden they traded up to three. So if you're

93
00:04:55,360 --> 00:04:59,080
Speaker 1: Jimmy Garoppolo, you've had like multiple votes of confidence in

94
00:04:59,120 --> 00:05:02,240
Speaker 1: the press from John Lynch Kyle Shanahan, and now they

95
00:05:02,320 --> 00:05:05,120
Speaker 1: trade up to three. Folks. You don't give up future

96
00:05:05,160 --> 00:05:08,520
Speaker 1: first round picks to move up and select an offensive lineman.

97
00:05:09,839 --> 00:05:11,800
Speaker 1: You don't do that. You don't move up to select

98
00:05:11,800 --> 00:05:15,280
Speaker 1: a wide receiver, you definitely don't do that. There's no

99
00:05:15,440 --> 00:05:19,880
Speaker 1: elite pass rusher the is there? At three, and you

100
00:05:19,880 --> 00:05:22,800
Speaker 1: don't trade up for a pass rusher anyway. So this

101
00:05:22,839 --> 00:05:25,560
Speaker 1: is what's happening. The forty Niners pretty clearly decided, you

102
00:05:25,600 --> 00:05:29,719
Speaker 1: know what, we just looked at what the Kansas City

103
00:05:29,800 --> 00:05:34,440
Speaker 1: Chiefs did with Patrick Mahomes. They moved up to ten

104
00:05:34,560 --> 00:05:39,080
Speaker 1: to draft him. They take him. They were a playoff

105
00:05:39,080 --> 00:05:42,560
Speaker 1: team with Alex Smith. They sit Mahomes for the entire year.

106
00:05:42,600 --> 00:05:44,720
Speaker 1: They start him in the final week, a meaningless game.

107
00:05:44,760 --> 00:05:48,320
Speaker 1: Hey let's get him some live fire. We trot out

108
00:05:48,320 --> 00:05:51,080
Speaker 1: our veteran quarterback, Alex Smith. We get to the playoffs.

109
00:05:51,800 --> 00:05:54,279
Speaker 1: Thank you for your service, Alex Smith. The next year

110
00:05:54,279 --> 00:05:58,279
Speaker 1: they start Mahomes, who's not pressured right because he sat

111
00:05:58,320 --> 00:06:01,520
Speaker 1: for a year. He knows offense, knows the players knows.

112
00:06:01,560 --> 00:06:05,320
Speaker 1: Everything goes in, hits the ground, running absolute home run.

113
00:06:05,960 --> 00:06:08,800
Speaker 1: So the Niners, my guess is they are going to

114
00:06:08,920 --> 00:06:11,400
Speaker 1: start Jimmy g this year. Yeah there. I don't believe

115
00:06:11,440 --> 00:06:15,760
Speaker 1: they're gonna trade him. They're gonna let either Justin Fields

116
00:06:15,880 --> 00:06:18,200
Speaker 1: or trade Lance. My guess is Fields right now, I

117
00:06:18,240 --> 00:06:20,839
Speaker 1: don't buy any of them. Mac Jones nonsense that people

118
00:06:20,839 --> 00:06:23,839
Speaker 1: are pushing out there. My first question was, Okay, who

119
00:06:23,920 --> 00:06:26,560
Speaker 1: is Mac Jones agent got to be a powerful guy

120
00:06:26,600 --> 00:06:30,080
Speaker 1: because Mac Jones has gone from Oh, he's a second round,

121
00:06:30,279 --> 00:06:33,880
Speaker 1: nice little player at Alabama, surrounded by the greatest collection

122
00:06:33,920 --> 00:06:36,599
Speaker 1: of talent in college football, and he's got two top

123
00:06:36,640 --> 00:06:40,520
Speaker 1: twenty five wide receivers. He's got at least I think,

124
00:06:40,560 --> 00:06:45,080
Speaker 1: to all American offensive lineman, all American running back. Like, guys,

125
00:06:45,200 --> 00:06:48,760
Speaker 1: I'm not overstating my level of importance, but I probably

126
00:06:48,800 --> 00:06:51,919
Speaker 1: could have put up decent numbers at the as the

127
00:06:51,920 --> 00:06:55,600
Speaker 1: Alabama quarterback this year. I mean, seriously, Mac Jones good quarterback.

128
00:06:55,960 --> 00:06:58,120
Speaker 1: You're not taking him top three. That makes no sense

129
00:06:58,160 --> 00:07:02,559
Speaker 1: at all. So if they get Justin Fields, the knock

130
00:07:02,600 --> 00:07:06,240
Speaker 1: on fields is, hey, he has started two seasons. He

131
00:07:06,440 --> 00:07:10,120
Speaker 1: was a backup at Georgia, got some action in the SEC,

132
00:07:10,520 --> 00:07:13,080
Speaker 1: so he's been out there three years. There has been

133
00:07:13,120 --> 00:07:17,200
Speaker 1: some knocks on whether or not Justin Fields can quickly

134
00:07:17,320 --> 00:07:22,240
Speaker 1: enough dissected defense, recognize what they're doing, and then make

135
00:07:22,280 --> 00:07:25,680
Speaker 1: the right decision. Well, Jay, he threw six touchdowns against Clemson. Yeah,

136
00:07:25,720 --> 00:07:28,960
Speaker 1: we know that, We're aware, everybody knows it. There is questions,

137
00:07:28,960 --> 00:07:32,000
Speaker 1: So what did he drop an egg for against Northwestern?

138
00:07:32,640 --> 00:07:36,000
Speaker 1: You know why? He was quite bad against Alabama, and

139
00:07:36,000 --> 00:07:41,000
Speaker 1: Alabama's defense was nothing amazing, justin fields, really good quarterback,

140
00:07:41,000 --> 00:07:43,240
Speaker 1: a lot of upside. But there are questions, and folks

141
00:07:43,560 --> 00:07:47,520
Speaker 1: think about this. There were questions about Pat Mahomes when

142
00:07:47,520 --> 00:07:50,920
Speaker 1: he came out of Texas Tech. A lot of these

143
00:07:51,280 --> 00:07:54,679
Speaker 1: big twelve quarterbacks, Hey man, can they read a defense?

144
00:07:54,760 --> 00:07:57,840
Speaker 1: They're running Arena League football defenses out there. He's in

145
00:07:57,960 --> 00:08:01,240
Speaker 1: shotgun every every step Pat Mahomes, I think it was

146
00:08:01,240 --> 00:08:03,360
Speaker 1: was it God from a Homes? Neither of those guys

147
00:08:03,400 --> 00:08:06,520
Speaker 1: took like more than ten snaps under center in their

148
00:08:06,560 --> 00:08:10,720
Speaker 1: college career or something outlandish like that. So all of

149
00:08:10,760 --> 00:08:13,280
Speaker 1: a sudden, it's like, oh, we can try out Jimmy

150
00:08:13,320 --> 00:08:15,040
Speaker 1: g we can make get back to the playoffs because

151
00:08:15,040 --> 00:08:18,480
Speaker 1: they've got a playoff roster. Although the defense has stepped

152
00:08:18,480 --> 00:08:21,400
Speaker 1: back a little bit, right. They lose their energizer, Bunny

153
00:08:21,680 --> 00:08:26,000
Speaker 1: Robert Salah. They lose I think I've seen four starters

154
00:08:26,040 --> 00:08:28,520
Speaker 1: going down by the way side. Note just file it

155
00:08:28,560 --> 00:08:32,920
Speaker 1: away for off season gambling and predictions. I saw the

156
00:08:32,920 --> 00:08:36,520
Speaker 1: Pittsburgh Steelers lost five starters from that defense. Just something

157
00:08:36,520 --> 00:08:38,760
Speaker 1: and file away forty. I believe you are losing four

158
00:08:38,760 --> 00:08:43,640
Speaker 1: starters and of course the defensive coordinator. That's a playoff

159
00:08:43,679 --> 00:08:47,400
Speaker 1: team in the NFC, which is considerably weaker than the

160
00:08:47,440 --> 00:08:50,120
Speaker 1: a f C. So you you keep Jimmy G. He

161
00:08:50,120 --> 00:08:51,880
Speaker 1: can get you to the playoffs. We've seen him get

162
00:08:51,880 --> 00:08:55,240
Speaker 1: you to the super Bowl with the defense. Another note

163
00:08:55,240 --> 00:08:57,520
Speaker 1: to file away. He threw eight passes in the NFC

164
00:08:57,640 --> 00:09:00,280
Speaker 1: Championship game. I think he was six of eight for

165
00:09:00,360 --> 00:09:03,360
Speaker 1: something like seventy five yards in that blood bath over

166
00:09:03,400 --> 00:09:06,559
Speaker 1: the Packers. And then you don't have you get the

167
00:09:06,600 --> 00:09:10,680
Speaker 1: quarterback on the rookie scale and you reset everything and

168
00:09:10,720 --> 00:09:14,320
Speaker 1: you can spend everywhere else Like this is the plan, folks.

169
00:09:15,120 --> 00:09:17,640
Speaker 1: The forty Niners did it. We've now seen the Rams

170
00:09:17,640 --> 00:09:21,480
Speaker 1: done it. You need to press that reset button. And

171
00:09:22,559 --> 00:09:26,080
Speaker 1: I don't want to pay quarterbacks top dollar. Jimmy G

172
00:09:26,320 --> 00:09:28,840
Speaker 1: is not making exorbit of money when you look around,

173
00:09:28,840 --> 00:09:32,319
Speaker 1: and oh Tech Prescott's getting forty mill, right, and Josh

174
00:09:32,320 --> 00:09:34,600
Speaker 1: Allen's asking for forty mill and Baker Mayfield is gonna

175
00:09:34,600 --> 00:09:37,000
Speaker 1: want the big bucks, and the Ravens are about the

176
00:09:37,000 --> 00:09:39,880
Speaker 1: pay Lamar Jackson. That's gonna be the thing I beat

177
00:09:39,920 --> 00:09:44,720
Speaker 1: down this entire summer. The next wave in the NFL

178
00:09:44,880 --> 00:09:47,640
Speaker 1: is have your quarterback on the rookie deal, make a

179
00:09:47,679 --> 00:09:50,000
Speaker 1: deep playoff run, maybe win a super Bowl, and then

180
00:09:50,000 --> 00:09:52,320
Speaker 1: you start all over and do it again, because if

181
00:09:52,360 --> 00:09:56,040
Speaker 1: your coach is that good as Shanahan is, as McVeigh is,

182
00:09:57,320 --> 00:10:00,920
Speaker 1: you can take any quarterback and get your team with

183
00:10:01,280 --> 00:10:04,800
Speaker 1: great surrounding talent at the edge, dresher at left tackle,

184
00:10:05,760 --> 00:10:07,400
Speaker 1: and you can make a run. So I really like

185
00:10:07,480 --> 00:10:10,280
Speaker 1: what the fort did. I actually don't hate what the

186
00:10:10,320 --> 00:10:12,840
Speaker 1: Dolphins did. And we didn't even get to the Eagles.

187
00:10:12,880 --> 00:10:15,319
Speaker 1: And yes, this is a Friday in March. Should be

188
00:10:15,360 --> 00:10:18,000
Speaker 1: all n c A tournament, should be NBA tread deadline.

189
00:10:18,200 --> 00:10:20,599
Speaker 1: But the NFL shakes things up, and you know we

190
00:10:20,640 --> 00:10:24,720
Speaker 1: gotta go NFL hard. I'll just be quick on the Eagles.

191
00:10:25,120 --> 00:10:30,160
Speaker 1: It is very clear that the Eagles brass which went

192
00:10:30,200 --> 00:10:35,480
Speaker 1: through the full range of emotions in about three months, right,

193
00:10:35,480 --> 00:10:38,240
Speaker 1: it was like, oh, we got a bench, Carson Wentz,

194
00:10:38,480 --> 00:10:40,959
Speaker 1: let's put in Jalen Hurts. Jalen Hurts, pizzas saint. Jalen

195
00:10:41,080 --> 00:10:45,520
Speaker 1: Hurts is our guy. Let's go Jalen Hurts loses three

196
00:10:45,520 --> 00:10:50,120
Speaker 1: in a row. Oh okay, um, all right, we can

197
00:10:50,160 --> 00:10:51,559
Speaker 1: go back to Carson. We can go back to Carson

198
00:10:51,559 --> 00:10:53,640
Speaker 1: Wentz and the off season, it sounds like Carson's gonna

199
00:10:53,640 --> 00:10:59,200
Speaker 1: get the job. Something goes down in Philly. Oh um,

200
00:10:59,280 --> 00:11:04,920
Speaker 1: we gotta fire the coach. Okay, Doug Peterson, Sionara, Hey,

201
00:11:04,960 --> 00:11:06,960
Speaker 1: Carson's our guy. No, no, Carson's not a guy. Were

202
00:11:07,000 --> 00:11:09,880
Speaker 1: trading him to Indie? Can we can we trade it

203
00:11:10,000 --> 00:11:14,200
Speaker 1: to two or three? Can we? No? Okay, we're gonna

204
00:11:14,240 --> 00:11:17,760
Speaker 1: trade down. The Eagles have moved out of six, they're

205
00:11:17,760 --> 00:11:21,000
Speaker 1: down to twelve. Don't think you're gonna get a quarterback there.

206
00:11:21,080 --> 00:11:27,000
Speaker 1: But Eagles pick up another first in two. So all

207
00:11:27,000 --> 00:11:29,320
Speaker 1: of a sudden, now the Eagles have decided. And again

208
00:11:29,679 --> 00:11:31,840
Speaker 1: this all went down for them in about three months.

209
00:11:33,120 --> 00:11:38,280
Speaker 1: Uncertainty is not good, folks. Okay, Jalen Hurts is our

210
00:11:38,280 --> 00:11:40,160
Speaker 1: guy for this year. We'll see what he can do.

211
00:11:42,160 --> 00:11:44,160
Speaker 1: If Jalen Hurts can't cut it, we got a couple

212
00:11:44,160 --> 00:11:48,640
Speaker 1: of bites at the Apple, we'll draft another quarterback. I

213
00:11:48,720 --> 00:11:52,880
Speaker 1: love this NFL madness, Kevin. I will say this more

214
00:11:52,920 --> 00:11:58,800
Speaker 1: exciting NBA trade deadline or the NFL trades on Friday.

215
00:11:59,200 --> 00:12:02,439
Speaker 1: I I think it would surprise a lot of people

216
00:12:02,440 --> 00:12:06,360
Speaker 1: how little the public cares about the NBA trade. Well yeah,

217
00:12:06,360 --> 00:12:08,400
Speaker 1: I mean it's just it just doesn't have the buzz.

218
00:12:09,240 --> 00:12:13,800
Speaker 1: But the NFL that, I mean, that move yesterday has

219
00:12:14,200 --> 00:12:17,400
Speaker 1: major ramifications and uh, I'm excited. It was one of

220
00:12:17,440 --> 00:12:19,600
Speaker 1: those moves. Were you at home when it happened? I

221
00:12:19,679 --> 00:12:22,000
Speaker 1: was here happening for the Doug Gotlieb Show. And what

222
00:12:22,080 --> 00:12:25,000
Speaker 1: was so funny was that was, you know, we're working

223
00:12:25,040 --> 00:12:27,960
Speaker 1: on topics to talk about. Hey, Mike McCarthy said this

224
00:12:28,080 --> 00:12:32,120
Speaker 1: the other that trade happened and we scrapped all that. Everything,

225
00:12:32,240 --> 00:12:34,560
Speaker 1: all the work goes out the window. And it was

226
00:12:34,600 --> 00:12:37,480
Speaker 1: one of those I'm sitting at the computer my kids.

227
00:12:38,360 --> 00:12:39,880
Speaker 1: I haven't gone to school yet, they're only doing the

228
00:12:39,880 --> 00:12:42,200
Speaker 1: two and a half hours a day garbage in l

229
00:12:42,240 --> 00:12:48,400
Speaker 1: A and I audibly go whoa. And you know, my

230
00:12:48,440 --> 00:12:50,959
Speaker 1: kids like, what's going on? What happened? Dad? What's going on?

231
00:12:51,160 --> 00:12:54,040
Speaker 1: I was like, there was an NFL trade. They're like, okay,

232
00:12:54,040 --> 00:12:56,680
Speaker 1: I'm going back to my device, you know, and I'm like, wait,

233
00:12:56,760 --> 00:13:00,280
Speaker 1: is it? This is huge? Forty Niners move up and

234
00:13:00,280 --> 00:13:03,160
Speaker 1: if somebody I think it was Warren Sharp tweeted out

235
00:13:03,200 --> 00:13:05,480
Speaker 1: the list of quarterbacks that Kyle Shanahan's worked with It's

236
00:13:05,520 --> 00:13:09,800
Speaker 1: like r G three, Kirk Cousins, Johnny Rosel, Matt Ryan.

237
00:13:10,120 --> 00:13:13,439
Speaker 1: He got Matt Ryan m VP. I think this is

238
00:13:13,480 --> 00:13:16,400
Speaker 1: the first time Kyle Shanahan will be able to actually

239
00:13:16,520 --> 00:13:20,679
Speaker 1: pick the quarterback he wants. Now, you could say he

240
00:13:20,760 --> 00:13:24,240
Speaker 1: was the one who picked Jimmy g Okay, I mean

241
00:13:24,480 --> 00:13:29,000
Speaker 1: he was who was available, right, It wasn't that he said, Okay,

242
00:13:29,040 --> 00:13:32,440
Speaker 1: I want that guy. Kyle Shanahan now gets to identify

243
00:13:32,960 --> 00:13:35,720
Speaker 1: fields Lance and yees Year. You can put Mac Jones

244
00:13:35,760 --> 00:13:38,240
Speaker 1: in there, Kyle Trask if you feel he really feel

245
00:13:38,320 --> 00:13:40,480
Speaker 1: like you want to. But Kyle Shanahan's gonna get his

246
00:13:40,480 --> 00:13:44,160
Speaker 1: guy now. Trevor Lawrence going one. Jets clearly are getting

247
00:13:44,160 --> 00:13:48,160
Speaker 1: the Mormon Mahomes. Zach Wilson. Yeah, that's what we're calling him. Yeah,

248
00:13:48,240 --> 00:13:51,240
Speaker 1: the Mormon Mahomes. What an epic nickname. No pressure Zack.

249
00:13:51,520 --> 00:13:54,040
Speaker 1: By the way, Zack Wilson looks so young and boyish,

250
00:13:54,360 --> 00:13:57,160
Speaker 1: he almost looks like Zach. What's that guy? Zac Efron?

251
00:13:58,480 --> 00:14:02,600
Speaker 1: You think that Kyle's guy really was Deshaun Watson and

252
00:14:02,640 --> 00:14:05,559
Speaker 1: this is the backup because now he's untradeable. Oh yeah,

253
00:14:05,600 --> 00:14:08,920
Speaker 1: I don't. I mean Deshaun Watson would certainly be my

254
00:14:08,960 --> 00:14:12,679
Speaker 1: guy if it was an option. Um, I can't do

255
00:14:12,760 --> 00:14:15,600
Speaker 1: the character assassination on Deshaun Watson that a lot of

256
00:14:15,600 --> 00:14:19,200
Speaker 1: other people are doing. Um, the woke crowdy, you know,

257
00:14:19,560 --> 00:14:23,720
Speaker 1: the far left, annoying folks on social media. Like I'm

258
00:14:23,760 --> 00:14:25,720
Speaker 1: not doing I'm not doing that, sorry, Like I'm not

259
00:14:27,600 --> 00:14:29,960
Speaker 1: tossing Deshaun Watson in the trash because of a bunch

260
00:14:30,000 --> 00:14:33,040
Speaker 1: of civil lawsuits. Okay, give means, I need to see evidence.

00:17:07,480 --> 00:17:11,800
Speaker 1: Bob Roberts, uh or oral Bob. I'm sorry, butchered that badly.

307
00:17:12,840 --> 00:17:16,679
Speaker 1: It's like that's the problem, like the games, and again,

308
00:17:16,840 --> 00:17:20,480
Speaker 1: I love college basketball. I personally will be watching, but

309
00:17:21,280 --> 00:17:23,959
Speaker 1: the general public, which is what you want, right This

310
00:17:24,040 --> 00:17:28,200
Speaker 1: is the crown and jewel of the sport Arkansas. Earl Roberts.

311
00:17:29,160 --> 00:17:31,520
Speaker 1: Really that that like, that's an attractive game to spread?

312
00:17:31,600 --> 00:17:32,960
Speaker 1: Is the eleven and a half? By the way, they

313
00:17:32,960 --> 00:17:37,240
Speaker 1: did play earlier this season Oral Bob hung around really well,

314
00:17:37,720 --> 00:17:40,399
Speaker 1: ended up losing. They did cover the spread For what

315
00:17:40,480 --> 00:17:44,160
Speaker 1: it's worth for those people who care about such matters. Um,

316
00:17:44,200 --> 00:17:47,680
Speaker 1: I would say Gavin the best game, and it says

317
00:17:47,720 --> 00:17:53,240
Speaker 1: West Coast bias. But USC Oregon, Yeah it's that. Or um,

318
00:17:53,359 --> 00:17:57,840
Speaker 1: Michigan versus Florida State, Yeah, that'll be good too. I

319
00:17:57,840 --> 00:18:01,240
Speaker 1: think Michigan walks away with that one. Um, I think

320
00:18:01,960 --> 00:18:07,600
Speaker 1: I like FSU on that a little bit o. But like, yeah,

321
00:18:07,720 --> 00:18:12,440
Speaker 1: it's like Alabama U c l A. U c l

322
00:18:12,480 --> 00:18:13,960
Speaker 1: A is a bit of a blue blood, and I

323
00:18:13,960 --> 00:18:17,960
Speaker 1: don't know, maybe we need to define the blue bludds, right, Kentucky, Duke,

324
00:18:18,080 --> 00:18:20,400
Speaker 1: and North Carolina are the three biggest, but I think

325
00:18:20,520 --> 00:18:23,159
Speaker 1: they're like the requisite for a blue blood is like

326
00:18:23,480 --> 00:18:27,399
Speaker 1: multiple championships, meaning like three, and then you have to

327
00:18:27,400 --> 00:18:31,280
Speaker 1: have been relevant for more than twenty years. So Gonzaga, sorry,

328
00:18:31,320 --> 00:18:32,879
Speaker 1: you're not in the mix. And you don't even have

329
00:18:33,000 --> 00:18:34,880
Speaker 1: the titles to back it up. People want to toss

330
00:18:34,960 --> 00:18:37,480
Speaker 1: Villanova in there, they're not. I don't think they have

331
00:18:37,480 --> 00:18:39,560
Speaker 1: two titles in the last five years, but they did

332
00:18:39,560 --> 00:18:41,679
Speaker 1: get one in five so they're close. But they're not

333
00:18:41,760 --> 00:18:46,160
Speaker 1: a blue blood. You see l A, which your grandfather

334
00:18:46,200 --> 00:18:49,399
Speaker 1: knows about their basketball. Your dad knows about their basketball. Like,

335
00:18:49,560 --> 00:18:52,760
Speaker 1: come on, it's u C l A. They're in there. Indiana,

336
00:18:52,800 --> 00:18:55,040
Speaker 1: which is looking for a coach, is in there. I

337
00:18:55,080 --> 00:18:57,800
Speaker 1: had friend for Silla, come on my podcast. Frand Fra Chilla,

338
00:18:57,920 --> 00:19:00,800
Speaker 1: the great college basketball announcer, knows the NBA Draft as

339
00:19:00,800 --> 00:19:03,439
Speaker 1: well as anybody. He thinks they're gonna give it to

340
00:19:03,760 --> 00:19:07,560
Speaker 1: Scott Drew of Baylor. Scott Drew would then have to

341
00:19:07,640 --> 00:19:09,919
Speaker 1: leave Baylor, where he's done some damn good things. They

342
00:19:09,920 --> 00:19:13,479
Speaker 1: were undefeated, uh eighteen and no until the COVID hit

343
00:19:13,520 --> 00:19:15,520
Speaker 1: and kind of wrecked their season. But there I think

344
00:19:15,560 --> 00:19:17,159
Speaker 1: I have them stole in the championship in some of

345
00:19:17,200 --> 00:19:21,480
Speaker 1: my brackets. Um, you know, does does Scott Drew go

346
00:19:21,560 --> 00:19:23,920
Speaker 1: to Indiana? Indiana as a blue blood but it's down

347
00:19:24,359 --> 00:19:26,520
Speaker 1: I don't know. I like the games today, but I

348
00:19:26,560 --> 00:19:31,480
Speaker 1: mean Loyola Oregon State. Think about this. Oregon State was

349
00:19:31,560 --> 00:19:33,960
Speaker 1: not going to make the tournament until they made a

350
00:19:34,000 --> 00:19:37,480
Speaker 1: run in the Pact Wolf. They've been incredibly fortunate with

351
00:19:37,640 --> 00:19:39,919
Speaker 1: their draw. They played some young teams. They have a

352
00:19:39,920 --> 00:19:44,560
Speaker 1: lot of veteran kids, and a good coach. Um, Like

353
00:19:45,600 --> 00:19:48,920
Speaker 1: watching them against Loyola is not like a game where

354
00:19:48,920 --> 00:19:51,280
Speaker 1: it's like, Okay, circle it on the calendar, put my

355
00:19:51,320 --> 00:19:53,920
Speaker 1: phone phone on silent, gotta watch this. Like that's that's

356
00:19:53,960 --> 00:19:57,720
Speaker 1: not even close to happening. I you know, I feel

357
00:19:57,720 --> 00:20:00,119
Speaker 1: bad for the n c A tournament, but that it's

358
00:20:00,200 --> 00:20:01,920
Speaker 1: kind of where we are, Like the games are not

359
00:20:02,000 --> 00:20:05,160
Speaker 1: that attractive. This weekend, I'm kind of into the rock

360
00:20:05,240 --> 00:20:09,040
Speaker 1: fight that will be Syracuse, Houston and uh Creighton Gonzaga.

361
00:20:09,080 --> 00:20:11,000
Speaker 1: I think it's gonna be closer than the experts think.

362
00:20:11,080 --> 00:20:13,480
Speaker 1: I took the points with Creighton for what it's worth.

363
00:20:13,520 --> 00:20:17,480
Speaker 1: We'll do more on the tournament later. Fox Sports Radio

368
00:20:31,560 --> 00:20:34,760
Speaker 1: Amber Wilson seven nineties the ticket in Miami, Amber, how

369
00:20:34,800 --> 00:20:38,600
Speaker 1: are you this morning? I'm great for having Yeah, thanks

370
00:20:38,600 --> 00:20:40,520
Speaker 1: for joining us. And uh, you know, the Miami Heat

371
00:20:40,520 --> 00:20:43,760
Speaker 1: were big, big winners at the NBA trade deadline and

372
00:20:43,800 --> 00:20:45,800
Speaker 1: a lot of people are saying, oh, Victual the deepo

373
00:20:46,000 --> 00:20:47,600
Speaker 1: he's been hurt for like the I don't know the

374
00:20:47,640 --> 00:20:51,000
Speaker 1: last three years. Basically, why are the Heat winners? What

375
00:20:51,040 --> 00:20:53,800
Speaker 1: are they? What does Victor have left in the tank? Amber?

376
00:20:53,840 --> 00:20:55,960
Speaker 1: Can you help explain why why the Heat did such

377
00:20:55,960 --> 00:20:58,440
Speaker 1: a good job at the trade deadline. Well, they did

378
00:20:58,440 --> 00:21:00,960
Speaker 1: such a great job because I think that they were,

379
00:21:01,000 --> 00:21:03,439
Speaker 1: of course pursuing Pyle Lowry, That's what it looks like

380
00:21:03,480 --> 00:21:06,080
Speaker 1: with the reports, but they pivoted at the last second

381
00:21:06,359 --> 00:21:08,760
Speaker 1: and they turned their attention back to Oladipo. We know

382
00:21:09,040 --> 00:21:11,239
Speaker 1: that Oladipo has wanted to be in Miami for a

383
00:21:11,280 --> 00:21:13,959
Speaker 1: long time. He was learning with us in the bubble

384
00:21:14,080 --> 00:21:18,080
Speaker 1: blatantly last Eagle, Well what rumor has been out there forever?

385
00:21:18,160 --> 00:21:20,560
Speaker 1: And if the worst kept secret in the n b A.

386
00:21:21,000 --> 00:21:22,679
Speaker 1: And I think you'll like that if you're the Miami Heat,

387
00:21:22,680 --> 00:21:24,600
Speaker 1: because you know he wants to be here, and this

388
00:21:24,640 --> 00:21:26,680
Speaker 1: gives you an opportunity because you didn't really have to

389
00:21:26,720 --> 00:21:28,440
Speaker 1: trade much away for him at all. I mean, you

390
00:21:28,480 --> 00:21:31,159
Speaker 1: gave away what Avery Bradley, you hardly ever played for

391
00:21:31,200 --> 00:21:35,480
Speaker 1: the Heat anyways. And Kelly olynnik get Victor Oladipo. I

392
00:21:35,600 --> 00:21:37,280
Speaker 1: don't know what he has left in the take you

393
00:21:37,320 --> 00:21:39,359
Speaker 1: knowly twenty eight years old, though don't for the season

394
00:21:39,440 --> 00:21:41,800
Speaker 1: we act like he's old. You know, he's always twenty eight.

395
00:21:41,880 --> 00:21:45,000
Speaker 1: Obviously he's had some issues coming off of that quad injury.

396
00:21:45,320 --> 00:21:47,560
Speaker 1: But what this does sort of heat, you don't give

397
00:21:47,640 --> 00:21:49,880
Speaker 1: much in return, and you get him for a three

398
00:21:49,920 --> 00:21:52,760
Speaker 1: month evaluation period. I think that's what's so great about

399
00:21:52,800 --> 00:21:54,960
Speaker 1: what the Heat did, because we knew he wanted to

400
00:21:55,000 --> 00:21:56,960
Speaker 1: be here, so his sides were going to be spread

401
00:21:56,960 --> 00:21:59,640
Speaker 1: on the Heat and free agency. But because you don't

402
00:21:59,640 --> 00:22:01,480
Speaker 1: know what to have left with Victorial and people, but

403
00:22:01,560 --> 00:22:04,680
Speaker 1: maybe you can return him to greatness. You get three

404
00:22:04,720 --> 00:22:07,120
Speaker 1: months here to evaluate them without much of a praise,

405
00:22:07,359 --> 00:22:09,640
Speaker 1: and then decide in the off season is you want

406
00:22:09,640 --> 00:22:12,359
Speaker 1: to pay him? Yeah. I also love the fact that

407
00:22:12,400 --> 00:22:15,240
Speaker 1: they did not part with any of the young core

408
00:22:15,760 --> 00:22:20,920
Speaker 1: Amber Duncan, Robinson still in Miami, Tyler Hero still in Miami,

409
00:22:21,080 --> 00:22:24,120
Speaker 1: Kendrick Nunn. Like, when you can keep your young guys,

410
00:22:24,400 --> 00:22:26,840
Speaker 1: you don't have to give up any good first round picks.

411
00:22:27,640 --> 00:22:29,960
Speaker 1: They can still make a move Amber. That's why I

412
00:22:30,000 --> 00:22:32,040
Speaker 1: think a lot of people don't get like if in

413
00:22:32,080 --> 00:22:34,840
Speaker 1: the off season pat Riley wants to go for say

414
00:22:34,920 --> 00:22:38,200
Speaker 1: Karl Anthony Towns because he's unhappy, or Bradley Beale says,

415
00:22:38,240 --> 00:22:40,960
Speaker 1: get me the hell out of Washington. Miami is right

416
00:22:40,960 --> 00:22:44,439
Speaker 1: there with the young guys and the picks right absolutely,

417
00:22:44,480 --> 00:22:46,280
Speaker 1: they're in that position. I mean, I don't know if

418
00:22:46,320 --> 00:22:48,479
Speaker 1: they're going to bother to pay Duncan in the off season.

419
00:22:48,600 --> 00:22:51,200
Speaker 1: He's a restricted free agent this summer, and I think

420
00:22:51,200 --> 00:22:53,159
Speaker 1: he's gonna command like sixteen million a year, Sam m

421
00:22:53,200 --> 00:22:54,760
Speaker 1: Kendrick Nunn. I mean, I think you're gonna get ten

422
00:22:54,760 --> 00:22:56,680
Speaker 1: million a year for Kendrick Nunn. I don't know if

423
00:22:56,680 --> 00:22:59,080
Speaker 1: Miami is gonna keep those guys around in the off season.

424
00:22:59,119 --> 00:23:02,280
Speaker 1: But I also understand why Toronto and a Lowry trade

425
00:23:02,720 --> 00:23:05,960
Speaker 1: wasn't making interested in those guys, because what's the points

426
00:23:06,000 --> 00:23:07,359
Speaker 1: that they're gonna have to pay them, and that it

427
00:23:07,440 --> 00:23:09,520
Speaker 1: just seem to fit their mmo leading up to the

428
00:23:09,560 --> 00:23:12,320
Speaker 1: training steadline. But the real key piece here is they

429
00:23:12,320 --> 00:23:14,680
Speaker 1: weren't willing to give up Tyler Hero, and they weren't

430
00:23:14,680 --> 00:23:16,320
Speaker 1: going to give up Tyler Hero for a thirty five

431
00:23:16,359 --> 00:23:20,280
Speaker 1: year old Kyle Lowry. But you were absolutely different Tyler

432
00:23:20,280 --> 00:23:22,240
Speaker 1: Hero for Bradley Beale. I think that they do that

433
00:23:22,400 --> 00:23:24,840
Speaker 1: and obviously it would more than that to get that done,

434
00:23:25,119 --> 00:23:27,160
Speaker 1: so they still have that skip if they ever want

435
00:23:27,160 --> 00:23:29,080
Speaker 1: to use it. That's not a knock on Tyler Hero.

436
00:23:29,200 --> 00:23:32,440
Speaker 1: But he are really high on Tyler Hero. He's only

437
00:23:32,480 --> 00:23:36,000
Speaker 1: twenty one years old. But with pat Riley, everyone's on

438
00:23:36,000 --> 00:23:39,000
Speaker 1: the table sort of, you know, Jimmy and Bam and

439
00:23:39,800 --> 00:23:42,040
Speaker 1: everyone's on the table. Let me ask you, Amber, what

440
00:23:42,240 --> 00:23:44,600
Speaker 1: is what? What are your thoughts on Kyle Lowry? I

441
00:23:44,600 --> 00:23:46,440
Speaker 1: don't know. I don't want to say he's overrated. Yeah,

442
00:23:46,520 --> 00:23:49,240
Speaker 1: he's one of the greatest players in Raptors history, but

443
00:23:49,280 --> 00:23:53,160
Speaker 1: like you said, he's thirty five. Um, I don't see

444
00:23:53,359 --> 00:23:56,399
Speaker 1: the fascination with him. Is I know, where are you

445
00:23:56,480 --> 00:23:57,960
Speaker 1: on Kyle Lowry? Is he like one of the ten

446
00:23:58,000 --> 00:24:00,600
Speaker 1: best point guards in the NBA? I you know, I've

447
00:24:00,600 --> 00:24:03,399
Speaker 1: always actually liked Kyle Lowry more than most people. But

448
00:24:03,600 --> 00:24:06,560
Speaker 1: the reception down here when all those rumors were circulating

449
00:24:06,560 --> 00:24:08,879
Speaker 1: the last of the week was not such a kind one.

450
00:24:08,920 --> 00:24:11,439
Speaker 1: I was a little surprised. He hands really didn't seem

451
00:24:11,480 --> 00:24:13,480
Speaker 1: to want him have a lot of its age, which

452
00:24:13,520 --> 00:24:15,040
Speaker 1: is fair. He's had a heck of a career up

453
00:24:15,040 --> 00:24:17,840
Speaker 1: there in Toronto. Like you said, but he's thirty five

454
00:24:17,920 --> 00:24:20,679
Speaker 1: years old and he's gonna make command crazy money this summer.

455
00:24:20,720 --> 00:24:23,359
Speaker 1: So we weren't super pumped about the idea of Kyle Lowry.

456
00:24:23,440 --> 00:24:25,280
Speaker 1: I know he would have helped the team in the

457
00:24:25,320 --> 00:24:27,159
Speaker 1: interim right now, but you would have want to pay him.

458
00:24:27,160 --> 00:24:28,760
Speaker 1: I'm sure he would have wanted that assurance if he

459
00:24:28,840 --> 00:24:32,080
Speaker 1: was coming down to Miami. So you know, I'm kind

460
00:24:32,080 --> 00:24:34,800
Speaker 1: of lukewarm on him, but more because he's in his

461
00:24:34,920 --> 00:24:36,639
Speaker 1: career and I think he's still playing at a really

462
00:24:36,720 --> 00:24:39,200
Speaker 1: high level for thirty five. But and I mean, it's

463
00:24:39,280 --> 00:24:42,280
Speaker 1: unless it's Lebron James and somehow he's defeating Father Time

464
00:24:42,400 --> 00:24:45,280
Speaker 1: or Tom Breedy. Thirty five never sounds like a good thing.

465
00:24:45,320 --> 00:24:47,200
Speaker 1: Tom All right, Before we get to the Dolphins, one

466
00:24:47,280 --> 00:24:49,840
Speaker 1: quick last question. So the Heat advanced the finals in

467
00:24:49,880 --> 00:24:52,760
Speaker 1: the Bubble. Really good run. And yeah they come out

468
00:24:52,760 --> 00:24:54,760
Speaker 1: a little slow, as did some of the final four

469
00:24:54,760 --> 00:24:58,359
Speaker 1: Bubble teams. I am just curious what's their ceiling this season?

470
00:24:58,359 --> 00:25:02,360
Speaker 1: Everybody has the nets penciled into the finals. The Sixers

471
00:25:02,359 --> 00:25:05,679
Speaker 1: are good, the Celtics are always lurking. The Milwaukee Bucks

472
00:25:05,760 --> 00:25:08,040
Speaker 1: maybe breakthrough one year. Where Where are you on the Heats?

473
00:25:08,119 --> 00:25:10,000
Speaker 1: Chances in the East. Yeah, I don't know if the

474
00:25:10,000 --> 00:25:13,440
Speaker 1: Celtics are always working, but you might be right. Yeah,

475
00:25:13,680 --> 00:25:15,600
Speaker 1: you know, I think I'm concerned as a Heat fan,

476
00:25:15,680 --> 00:25:18,440
Speaker 1: of course, because I think the Severn Sixerns got better,

477
00:25:18,480 --> 00:25:20,480
Speaker 1: and the Nets got better, and the Bucks got better,

478
00:25:20,520 --> 00:25:23,600
Speaker 1: and the East kind of improved. And before the trade denline,

479
00:25:23,800 --> 00:25:25,800
Speaker 1: it felt like Miami was just rolling back out the

480
00:25:25,800 --> 00:25:28,399
Speaker 1: same squad, and there was all the concerns about whether

481
00:25:28,440 --> 00:25:30,879
Speaker 1: they overperformed a bit in the bubble. They were a

482
00:25:30,880 --> 00:25:33,760
Speaker 1: team that was uniquely built for a bubble environment. I

483
00:25:33,800 --> 00:25:36,480
Speaker 1: think there's a large young team, you know. I think

484
00:25:36,480 --> 00:25:38,520
Speaker 1: it's a little bit easier when some of the guys

485
00:25:38,520 --> 00:25:41,000
Speaker 1: are on the younger side. You're away from your family's forever.

486
00:25:41,040 --> 00:25:43,600
Speaker 1: Not ever Bami Heat has kids, and not Everybami he

487
00:25:43,960 --> 00:25:46,600
Speaker 1: has wives, and so maybe mentally that was a little easier.

488
00:25:46,640 --> 00:25:48,760
Speaker 1: All these guys get along really well, they're all really

489
00:25:48,800 --> 00:25:51,600
Speaker 1: good friends. That also helps in a bubble type of environment.

490
00:25:51,640 --> 00:25:55,880
Speaker 1: So there was that concern and now more losses still

491
00:25:56,000 --> 00:25:58,879
Speaker 1: been that concerned down here. But also I think what

492
00:25:58,920 --> 00:26:01,760
Speaker 1: we saw last season is that they're a playoffs kind

493
00:26:01,800 --> 00:26:04,920
Speaker 1: of team, and they really stepped up when it matters most.

494
00:26:05,040 --> 00:26:06,760
Speaker 1: We know what Jimmy can do, we know what ma'am

495
00:26:06,760 --> 00:26:09,560
Speaker 1: can do. Even Tyler looks like a totally different player

496
00:26:09,840 --> 00:26:11,920
Speaker 1: in the playoffs. And so if you get that kind

497
00:26:11,960 --> 00:26:15,120
Speaker 1: of production again, I think that they could still meet

498
00:26:15,200 --> 00:26:18,160
Speaker 1: their way through and really surprised people like they did

499
00:26:18,240 --> 00:26:21,400
Speaker 1: last season. And of course, as Victor Oladipo can look

500
00:26:21,520 --> 00:26:24,520
Speaker 1: like Victor Oladipo of yesteryear and by yester year, you

501
00:26:24,560 --> 00:26:27,040
Speaker 1: know what, two three years ago, then a lot of

502
00:26:27,080 --> 00:26:28,960
Speaker 1: you think that would tremendously help as well. Allright, we

503
00:26:29,000 --> 00:26:31,720
Speaker 1: talking with Amber Wilson seven nineties the ticket in Miami, Amber,

504
00:26:31,840 --> 00:26:35,640
Speaker 1: Miami Dolphins swing a big trade. I would say the

505
00:26:35,720 --> 00:26:39,040
Speaker 1: largest takeaway is to is the quarterback of the immediate

506
00:26:39,080 --> 00:26:42,320
Speaker 1: future of this Deshaun Watson stuff appears to have evaporated

507
00:26:42,359 --> 00:26:46,280
Speaker 1: in Miami given his potential legal entanglements. Where are you

508
00:26:46,320 --> 00:26:48,560
Speaker 1: on on the status of ta as the guy? This

509
00:26:48,600 --> 00:26:51,720
Speaker 1: seems like a vote of confidence for him, right Well,

510
00:26:51,760 --> 00:26:53,800
Speaker 1: I think, like you mentioned, I think that it has

511
00:26:53,800 --> 00:26:55,760
Speaker 1: a lot to do with what's happened also with Deshaun,

512
00:26:55,840 --> 00:26:58,400
Speaker 1: because I do think that this said the Dolphins were

513
00:26:58,440 --> 00:27:01,399
Speaker 1: in on trying to make the trade score DeShawn Watson,

514
00:27:01,400 --> 00:27:03,320
Speaker 1: and that's why they were hanging onto that third pick.

515
00:27:03,760 --> 00:27:06,159
Speaker 1: They pivoted in the last couple of weeks because, like

516
00:27:06,280 --> 00:27:09,080
Speaker 1: you mentioned, all the stuff circulating DeShawn Watson right now,

517
00:27:09,119 --> 00:27:10,679
Speaker 1: So why do they need to start picks. They'm not

518
00:27:10,720 --> 00:27:13,000
Speaker 1: going to take a quarterback, you know. To there's still

519
00:27:13,000 --> 00:27:15,280
Speaker 1: a lot of question marks around to left and some

520
00:27:15,400 --> 00:27:17,840
Speaker 1: of us fair, some of it's a bit unfair. He

521
00:27:17,960 --> 00:27:20,040
Speaker 1: had some games that in process, he had some games

522
00:27:20,040 --> 00:27:23,119
Speaker 1: that we were really really underwhelmed. The unfair portion is

523
00:27:23,119 --> 00:27:26,040
Speaker 1: that he's constantly compared to Justin Herbert because the other guy,

524
00:27:26,080 --> 00:27:28,360
Speaker 1: the golf the Solvents could have taken with that fifth take,

525
00:27:28,400 --> 00:27:31,359
Speaker 1: and that's always gonna happen. And that's tyly fair because

526
00:27:31,359 --> 00:27:33,800
Speaker 1: they're two totally different quarterbacks and they can both be great.

527
00:27:34,080 --> 00:27:36,640
Speaker 1: They're not mutually exclusive. But that's what we do when

528
00:27:36,640 --> 00:27:39,800
Speaker 1: we evaluate drafts. So we to uh, his y season

529
00:27:39,840 --> 00:27:42,600
Speaker 1: was nearly as impersonal as Herbert's or even Burrow before

530
00:27:42,640 --> 00:27:45,800
Speaker 1: Burrow's injury, and so there's a lot of question mark

531
00:27:46,119 --> 00:27:48,840
Speaker 1: and sure, yeah, maybe trade a question mark even if

532
00:27:48,840 --> 00:27:50,520
Speaker 1: you took him at the top of the draft for

533
00:27:50,760 --> 00:27:53,800
Speaker 1: de Shaun wants it for top five player in the league.

534
00:27:54,000 --> 00:27:56,600
Speaker 1: But you don't trade, or you don't get rid of

535
00:27:56,600 --> 00:27:59,040
Speaker 1: a question mark, could go down draft another question mark

536
00:27:59,040 --> 00:28:01,200
Speaker 1: in this year's draft. You don't need that third pick,

537
00:28:01,560 --> 00:28:04,040
Speaker 1: and they did when when they were out on the

538
00:28:04,160 --> 00:28:07,159
Speaker 1: Shaun Watson race that we see seemingly so in the

539
00:28:07,200 --> 00:28:10,080
Speaker 1: immediately they did exactly what they should have done by

540
00:28:10,119 --> 00:28:13,480
Speaker 1: trading back, by getting more draft stuff. And you mentioned

541
00:28:13,560 --> 00:28:15,840
Speaker 1: Jason when you were setting up this question that at

542
00:28:15,880 --> 00:28:18,480
Speaker 1: least right now they're into And that's what's so great

543
00:28:18,480 --> 00:28:21,080
Speaker 1: about this plan, because yes, this question works around too.

544
00:28:21,320 --> 00:28:23,440
Speaker 1: He could end up being awesome, but they got to

545
00:28:23,520 --> 00:28:25,720
Speaker 1: evaluate him, they get to give him his time here,

546
00:28:25,920 --> 00:28:27,760
Speaker 1: and then they still have the draft capital on the

547
00:28:27,800 --> 00:28:30,520
Speaker 1: back end. They can still trade for a little quarterback.

548
00:28:30,560 --> 00:28:33,560
Speaker 1: And apparently it's a email in the NFL is that

549
00:28:33,640 --> 00:28:36,080
Speaker 1: these generational quarterbacks are going to become available on the

550
00:28:36,119 --> 00:28:38,480
Speaker 1: trade market. I guess that's the direction we're headed. So

551
00:28:38,560 --> 00:28:42,080
Speaker 1: that's still possible, or you could and going to draft

552
00:28:42,120 --> 00:28:44,600
Speaker 1: a quarterback at the top of the draft. You need

553
00:28:44,640 --> 00:28:46,719
Speaker 1: to as well, so you can correct that situation if

554
00:28:46,880 --> 00:28:48,720
Speaker 1: it doesn't work out. And that's what's so great about

555
00:28:48,720 --> 00:28:51,360
Speaker 1: this as assulting. I am curious though. This is a

556
00:28:51,400 --> 00:28:55,280
Speaker 1: guy in um to A who was benched twice in

557
00:28:55,400 --> 00:28:58,000
Speaker 1: games that Ryan Fitzpatrick came in. Now he doesn't have

558
00:28:58,040 --> 00:29:01,080
Speaker 1: to look over his shoulder. I think Jacoby Rissette is

559
00:29:01,120 --> 00:29:03,640
Speaker 1: the backup. I mean, he's not really a threat um

560
00:29:03,680 --> 00:29:05,360
Speaker 1: But what do you think they'll do at six in

561
00:29:05,400 --> 00:29:07,440
Speaker 1: the draft? Do they get him a receiver? But so

562
00:29:07,480 --> 00:29:09,880
Speaker 1: they traded back to twelve, then I think back to

563
00:29:09,920 --> 00:29:12,360
Speaker 1: what six in the eagle spot? Okay, where do you

564
00:29:12,400 --> 00:29:15,200
Speaker 1: think they go there? Is it the best defender available?

565
00:29:15,240 --> 00:29:18,240
Speaker 1: Do they go with another wide receiver? Yeah? It was

566
00:29:18,240 --> 00:29:20,280
Speaker 1: a really confusing day yesterday, trying to keep up without

567
00:29:20,280 --> 00:29:22,200
Speaker 1: all to hop it all during my radio sheet too,

568
00:29:22,280 --> 00:29:23,840
Speaker 1: when I was on air. It was really confusing to

569
00:29:23,880 --> 00:29:26,680
Speaker 1: guess right now they are at the six spot? Uh,

570
00:29:26,720 --> 00:29:29,920
Speaker 1: six and eighteen in this draft. I do think that

571
00:29:30,040 --> 00:29:32,120
Speaker 1: they take a pass catch shirt now. I don't know

572
00:29:32,320 --> 00:29:33,840
Speaker 1: they have Will Fuller. I don't know if it ends

573
00:29:33,880 --> 00:29:36,600
Speaker 1: up being a traditional receiver. I'm really high on Kyle

574
00:29:36,720 --> 00:29:39,960
Speaker 1: pick I'm also to be fair here or a huge

575
00:29:39,960 --> 00:29:42,440
Speaker 1: team same but that's not the only reason I'm high

576
00:29:42,480 --> 00:29:44,560
Speaker 1: on Kyle Pits. I think that that he would be

577
00:29:44,600 --> 00:29:47,280
Speaker 1: as a health cards be available at six, But any

578
00:29:47,320 --> 00:29:49,160
Speaker 1: of these guys might be available at six. I mean,

579
00:29:49,160 --> 00:29:50,600
Speaker 1: I think we might be looking at a draft for

580
00:29:50,680 --> 00:29:53,360
Speaker 1: the first four picks for a quarterback, so they might

581
00:29:53,440 --> 00:29:55,480
Speaker 1: have their picks. And I mean they might even be

582
00:29:55,480 --> 00:29:57,600
Speaker 1: able to draft a Banting Smoltic they want to in

583
00:29:57,720 --> 00:29:59,720
Speaker 1: terms of a past catcher, so I would expect that

584
00:29:59,840 --> 00:30:02,320
Speaker 1: they still go for that position to get to with

585
00:30:02,440 --> 00:30:06,200
Speaker 1: some weaponry around him at six. Okay, I think that

586
00:30:06,240 --> 00:30:09,280
Speaker 1: makes sense. But where where are they in the division?

587
00:30:09,280 --> 00:30:12,840
Speaker 1: Wrapping up here? Amber, do you think they are definitely

588
00:30:12,960 --> 00:30:17,200
Speaker 1: clear number two? Or I don't know, is it they

589
00:30:17,280 --> 00:30:19,680
Speaker 1: had the Patriots made so many moves that they are

590
00:30:19,720 --> 00:30:21,400
Speaker 1: now number two in the dividence? We all we would

591
00:30:21,440 --> 00:30:24,040
Speaker 1: agree the Bills are tops, right, Yeah, the balls are topped,

592
00:30:24,120 --> 00:30:26,040
Speaker 1: and I don't know after that. I think it's a

593
00:30:26,040 --> 00:30:28,080
Speaker 1: total poss up. I have no idea how those speeches

594
00:30:28,120 --> 00:30:29,760
Speaker 1: movies are gonna work out for them. I mean, it's

595
00:30:29,800 --> 00:30:32,240
Speaker 1: a total diversion from what they typically do in the

596
00:30:32,280 --> 00:30:34,600
Speaker 1: off season. You don't really know what to make of

597
00:30:34,640 --> 00:30:37,080
Speaker 1: any other team. Frankly, in the division. I think that

598
00:30:37,120 --> 00:30:39,720
Speaker 1: the Dolphins certainly have an opportunity here to be the

599
00:30:39,720 --> 00:30:42,120
Speaker 1: second best team in that division and compete with the Bills.

600
00:30:42,240 --> 00:30:45,360
Speaker 1: Hopefully they'll improve even off the last season. It's we're

601
00:30:45,360 --> 00:30:48,280
Speaker 1: supposed to be a total rebolls. They overre performed in

602
00:30:48,320 --> 00:30:51,640
Speaker 1: all books. Frankly, this season, we're like they're ahead of

603
00:30:51,720 --> 00:30:53,920
Speaker 1: schedule here, Jason a little bit. So we were all

604
00:30:54,000 --> 00:30:56,000
Speaker 1: kind of a little surprise at how well they just

605
00:30:56,080 --> 00:30:59,240
Speaker 1: last season, frankly. And we'll see because a lot of

606
00:30:59,240 --> 00:31:01,000
Speaker 1: it's gonna come down the TA and I do think

607
00:31:01,000 --> 00:31:03,560
Speaker 1: you're gonna see him be a start all season, and

608
00:31:03,600 --> 00:31:06,479
Speaker 1: I don't think you're gonna see him get that. M Okay,

609
00:31:06,520 --> 00:31:10,160
Speaker 1: all right, let's get a prediction on the record, uh

610
00:31:10,200 --> 00:31:12,200
Speaker 1: Amber for the Miami Dolphins. Now, well, we'll go under

611
00:31:12,240 --> 00:31:15,120
Speaker 1: sixteen games, although we hear a seventeen is likely coming.

612
00:31:15,160 --> 00:31:17,400
Speaker 1: Let's just go to sixteen game prediction for the Dolphins.

613
00:31:18,680 --> 00:31:21,840
Speaker 1: Oh man, Oh, you're putting me on the spot. Um,

614
00:31:21,960 --> 00:31:24,360
Speaker 1: you know, I I would be I would be still

615
00:31:24,760 --> 00:31:29,320
Speaker 1: very satisfied with if we were talking ten eleven wins season.

616
00:31:29,440 --> 00:31:31,680
Speaker 1: I think you'd still be okay as long as you

617
00:31:31,840 --> 00:31:35,080
Speaker 1: something like TWA showed you some stuff. So I don't know. Again,

618
00:31:35,400 --> 00:31:36,880
Speaker 1: I'm not expecting them to go out and win a

619
00:31:36,920 --> 00:31:39,640
Speaker 1: Super Bowl this season. I mean, heck can they do?

620
00:31:39,920 --> 00:31:43,080
Speaker 1: I look be thrilled, but that's not really the goal

621
00:31:43,160 --> 00:31:45,720
Speaker 1: here because you know, they're still really building for the

622
00:31:45,800 --> 00:31:48,800
Speaker 1: youngest team in the NFL. And you can see that

623
00:31:48,800 --> 00:31:50,800
Speaker 1: that's their m O that they're going to continue to

624
00:31:50,960 --> 00:31:52,880
Speaker 1: be a young team with all these draft picks that

625
00:31:52,880 --> 00:31:56,720
Speaker 1: they were requiring in three. This is a process, this

626
00:31:56,840 --> 00:31:59,280
Speaker 1: building process. So even if they go out they you know,

627
00:31:59,320 --> 00:32:03,080
Speaker 1: win tenam max season. I think if you saw what

628
00:32:03,120 --> 00:32:05,680
Speaker 1: you wanted to see from to us, you'd still be

629
00:32:05,800 --> 00:32:09,000
Speaker 1: absolutely thrilled. I would prefer a ten win season to

630
00:32:09,040 --> 00:32:14,400
Speaker 1: make the playoffs. Yeah, I mean, remember the Jets. My

631
00:32:14,520 --> 00:32:18,280
Speaker 1: Jets are gonna be a lot better. Uh maybe five wins? Alright.

632
00:32:18,840 --> 00:32:21,400
Speaker 1: Amber Wilson seven nineties the Ticket. You can follow her

633

Speaker 1: NFL trades, Saturday Sweet sixteen, Sunday Sweet six team. Um,

644
00:33:02,480 --> 00:33:06,160
Speaker 1: there is a pretty good women's college basketball game today.

645
00:33:06,440 --> 00:33:08,840
Speaker 1: I know we don't really talk w n B A

646
00:33:09,080 --> 00:33:11,160
Speaker 1: or women's college basketball tournam, but there's two of the

647
00:33:11,200 --> 00:33:13,480
Speaker 1: best players in the country going out of Connecticut and Iowa.

648
00:33:13,640 --> 00:33:17,160
Speaker 1: Sure Iowa Sam will be glued to that one. I

649
00:33:17,600 --> 00:33:21,680
Speaker 1: would say the most underplayed story that I saw over

650
00:33:21,720 --> 00:33:24,720
Speaker 1: these last couple of days was what the heck is

651
00:33:24,760 --> 00:33:27,240
Speaker 1: going on with the Lakers? And I know we are

652
00:33:27,280 --> 00:33:30,640
Speaker 1: on in Los Angeles, UM, and a lot of Lakers

653
00:33:30,680 --> 00:33:33,360
Speaker 1: fans listen to this in there. Okay, we gotta win

654
00:33:33,480 --> 00:33:35,960
Speaker 1: last night. I don't think you guys realize how bad

655
00:33:36,000 --> 00:33:39,400
Speaker 1: this is when we get where Anthony Davis are supposed

656
00:33:39,400 --> 00:33:40,680
Speaker 1: to get word on what the heck is going on

657
00:33:40,720 --> 00:33:44,080
Speaker 1: with him this weekend. I guess the second m R

658
00:33:44,160 --> 00:33:47,880
Speaker 1: I are reevaluated, but it's looking like at least two

659
00:33:47,880 --> 00:33:50,960
Speaker 1: more weeks without Lebron and a D. At least, the

660
00:33:51,080 --> 00:33:54,200
Speaker 1: schedule is brutal. And I said this on Cowherd Show yesterday.

661
00:33:54,240 --> 00:33:58,160
Speaker 1: So the NBA loves to back end the schedule with

662
00:33:58,240 --> 00:34:03,280
Speaker 1: great games. You can't frontloaded because truth be told, November December,

663
00:34:03,600 --> 00:34:10,120
Speaker 1: everybody's watching football, college football, NFL, and they backload the

664
00:34:10,120 --> 00:34:15,080
Speaker 1: schedule usually in starting like late February, and then they

665
00:34:15,120 --> 00:34:17,279
Speaker 1: skip March badness, and then like the end of March,

666
00:34:17,400 --> 00:34:19,840
Speaker 1: April has a lot of great games for made for

667
00:34:19,880 --> 00:34:23,160
Speaker 1: TV games because they're up against nothing, and the Laker

668
00:34:23,239 --> 00:34:26,839
Speaker 1: schedule is so difficult here the next three or four

669
00:34:26,920 --> 00:34:31,480
Speaker 1: weeks that it is feasible that they won last night.

670
00:34:31,560 --> 00:34:34,640
Speaker 1: If you look at their next eleven games, they could

671
00:34:34,800 --> 00:34:38,359
Speaker 1: very well go to A nine that would drop them

672
00:34:38,400 --> 00:34:40,279
Speaker 1: down in the West because to and nine without Lebron

673
00:34:40,360 --> 00:34:43,120
Speaker 1: and a D is realistic. Folks, without Lerono a D,

674
00:34:43,239 --> 00:34:45,680
Speaker 1: they lose to four really good teams by a mile.

675
00:34:45,719 --> 00:34:50,759
Speaker 1: They were never close. And even if a D s back,

676
00:34:50,840 --> 00:34:54,279
Speaker 1: I just want to remind people a D in New

677
00:34:54,400 --> 00:34:57,040
Speaker 1: Orleans was not a lock to get to the playoffs.

678
00:34:58,520 --> 00:35:00,560
Speaker 1: You still need that point guard to set it up

679
00:35:00,840 --> 00:35:05,080
Speaker 1: get everybody to the right spots, and like, I mean,

680
00:35:05,080 --> 00:35:10,920
Speaker 1: the Dennis shrewder a d Combo is not scaring anybody

681
00:35:10,960 --> 00:35:12,879
Speaker 1: in the West. And if you saw what the Denver

682
00:35:12,920 --> 00:35:17,800
Speaker 1: Nuggets did at the deadline, holy cal Aaron Gordon, I

683
00:35:17,840 --> 00:35:22,080
Speaker 1: would argue, and I think pretty convincingly that the Denver

684
00:35:22,200 --> 00:35:26,640
Speaker 1: Nuggets have the best roster or rotation whatever word you

685
00:35:26,640 --> 00:35:32,040
Speaker 1: want to use in the West. Murray Yokich and Gordon,

686
00:35:33,160 --> 00:35:35,360
Speaker 1: what what big three is better in the West? I

687
00:35:35,400 --> 00:35:38,920
Speaker 1: said West, I'm not talking East. With the Nets and

688
00:35:38,960 --> 00:35:41,759
Speaker 1: their fourth best players, Michael Porter Jr. Who was reportedly

689
00:35:41,840 --> 00:35:46,480
Speaker 1: untouchable anytime anybody would ask Key by one day lead

690
00:35:46,480 --> 00:35:49,000
Speaker 1: the league in scoring. You know, we had windhorsed on here.

691
00:35:49,800 --> 00:35:53,160
Speaker 1: I think right around when NBA free agency was happening

692
00:35:53,200 --> 00:35:56,200
Speaker 1: in like November, and he was like they they're not

693
00:35:56,239 --> 00:35:58,600
Speaker 1: trading Porter for anything. I was like, well, what's his ceiling?

694
00:35:58,600 --> 00:36:01,120
Speaker 1: What is he gonna be Tracy McGrady and win Horse

695
00:36:01,239 --> 00:36:04,200
Speaker 1: was like, you know, Tracy McGrady led the league in scoring.

696
00:36:04,320 --> 00:36:07,160
Speaker 1: He's I think in the Hall of Fame, Like, they're

697
00:36:07,200 --> 00:36:11,600
Speaker 1: not trading him. So the Nuggets fourth best players, Michael

698
00:36:11,600 --> 00:36:17,880
Speaker 1: Porter Jr. Like they've got depth, they have playoff battle depth,

699
00:36:17,920 --> 00:36:21,000
Speaker 1: tap the battle tested depth in Paul Millstop, I know

700
00:36:21,040 --> 00:36:23,880
Speaker 1: he's ever won anything, but he's a body. I like

701
00:36:24,040 --> 00:36:26,719
Speaker 1: Monty Morris, the backup point guard. Like they are a

702
00:36:26,760 --> 00:36:30,600
Speaker 1: formidable team. And right now you're talking about the Lakers

703
00:36:30,600 --> 00:36:35,319
Speaker 1: thirty five year old Lebron I'm sorry, thirty six, And

704
00:36:35,400 --> 00:36:39,120
Speaker 1: like Anthony Davis and Lebron not a. Nuggets are legit folks.

705
00:36:39,160 --> 00:36:42,239
Speaker 1: Phoenix Suns are really good too. But that big three

706
00:36:42,320 --> 00:36:44,359
Speaker 1: Aaron Gordon, I know he's never been an All Star.

707
00:36:45,000 --> 00:36:47,200
Speaker 1: And Jason you're living off where he was drafted and

708
00:36:47,880 --> 00:36:50,880
Speaker 1: is high school rivals ranking and all the damage he

709
00:36:50,920 --> 00:36:52,960
Speaker 1: did at Arizona although he never got to a Final four.

710
00:36:54,719 --> 00:36:57,920
Speaker 1: The guy's exactly what you need to defend Kauai and

711
00:36:57,960 --> 00:36:59,920
Speaker 1: Paul George and Lebron. You're not gonna stop him or

712
00:37:00,000 --> 00:37:01,640
Speaker 1: shot him down, but you at least slow them down

713
00:37:01,680 --> 00:37:04,239
Speaker 1: or contain them so they don't go for forty every night.

714
00:37:05,239 --> 00:37:08,840
Speaker 1: And I'm just telling you this Nuggets team is no pushover.

715
00:37:09,280 --> 00:37:11,600
Speaker 1: We saw how they manhandle the Clippers after being down

716
00:37:11,640 --> 00:37:14,800
Speaker 1: three one, and Jamal Murray can drop forty or fifty

717
00:37:14,840 --> 00:37:17,240
Speaker 1: at a moment's notice. And yes, I know they should

718
00:37:17,239 --> 00:37:19,919
Speaker 1: have probably lost to the Jazz. They were down three

719
00:37:19,920 --> 00:37:22,359
Speaker 1: one in that series, and they were down three one

720
00:37:22,360 --> 00:37:26,719
Speaker 1: of the Clippers. But you've got to walk before you

721
00:37:26,760 --> 00:37:30,000
Speaker 1: can run in the NBA playoffs, and I would say

722
00:37:30,040 --> 00:37:32,400
Speaker 1: right now that Denver Nuggets are clearly jogging at a

723
00:37:32,440 --> 00:37:35,680
Speaker 1: brisk pace, and we know the Lakers are running Phoenix Suns.

724
00:37:36,040 --> 00:37:37,520
Speaker 1: We got a lot of guys who've never been to

725
00:37:37,560 --> 00:37:41,120
Speaker 1: the postseason. Clippers. I think we both agree there frauds

726
00:37:41,719 --> 00:37:45,520
Speaker 1: Paper Tigers. They trade Lou Williams. Did you guys see

727
00:37:45,560 --> 00:37:47,759
Speaker 1: Lou Williams nearly retired when he was traded. He was like,

728
00:37:47,760 --> 00:37:49,960
Speaker 1: I don't need this crap. Oh wait, I'm going to

729
00:37:50,000 --> 00:37:53,160
Speaker 1: Atlanta where I'm like a king in the strip clubs

730
00:37:54,120 --> 00:37:57,440
Speaker 1: and everybody loves me. Okay, I'll do Atlantic. Yeah, how

731
00:37:57,480 --> 00:38:00,920
Speaker 1: about that defensive backcourt Gavin tray Young and Lou Williams

732
00:38:02,320 --> 00:38:06,520
Speaker 1: first round exit? Oh my gosh, Clip Clippers are frauds, folks.

00:39:43,480 --> 00:39:45,560
Speaker 1: the little kids on the weekends, but we we did.

763
00:39:45,600 --> 00:39:47,839
Speaker 1: We need to do some gambling. Where are you big

764
00:39:47,880 --> 00:39:49,680
Speaker 1: on the Sweet six team? I know you have your

765
00:39:49,800 --> 00:39:52,840
Speaker 1: I'm not gambling because of weight loss or whatever, but

766
00:39:52,960 --> 00:39:54,759
Speaker 1: I know you love to look at lines all the

767
00:39:54,800 --> 00:39:58,960
Speaker 1: time because you know, truth be told. I had Maryland

768
00:39:59,080 --> 00:40:03,160
Speaker 1: against al Obama and he told me, oh, Alabama just

769
00:40:03,200 --> 00:40:04,799
Speaker 1: got hit and you look at the line, it goes

770
00:40:04,840 --> 00:40:07,400
Speaker 1: what from like four and a half to six, and

771
00:40:07,440 --> 00:40:10,440
Speaker 1: I just knew at that point, Okay, Maryland's dead. It's over. Um,

772
00:40:10,560 --> 00:40:12,960
Speaker 1: let's just start with this. Has any anything been hit

773
00:40:13,080 --> 00:40:17,759
Speaker 1: hard in the Sweet sixteen? A few totals have moved

774
00:40:17,840 --> 00:40:20,360
Speaker 1: quite a bit, like like Villanova Baylor. The early early

775
00:40:20,400 --> 00:40:22,320
Speaker 1: opener in the market was like one thirty three and

776
00:40:22,320 --> 00:40:26,080
Speaker 1: a half. You know that's up to hold on, hold on,

777
00:40:26,120 --> 00:40:28,480
Speaker 1: hold on, press a nine point move on the total.

778
00:40:29,160 --> 00:40:31,920
Speaker 1: Yeah from the like from the opener opener, but it's

779
00:40:31,920 --> 00:40:33,960
Speaker 1: still moved. I think, you know, once it kind of

780
00:40:33,960 --> 00:40:36,200
Speaker 1: settled in right away early it was one thirty six,

781
00:40:36,239 --> 00:40:38,799
Speaker 1: one thirty seven, so even from there it's moved you know,

782
00:40:38,840 --> 00:40:41,680
Speaker 1: five six points. So yeah, very big move. I'm not

783
00:40:41,719 --> 00:40:43,959
Speaker 1: sure I agree with it now at this point, if anything,

784
00:40:43,960 --> 00:40:46,040
Speaker 1: I would look under. I think it's kind of too

785
00:40:46,040 --> 00:40:47,960
Speaker 1: big of a reaction. I think Villanova jar I have

786
00:40:48,000 --> 00:40:50,239
Speaker 1: a decent game plan and they're gonna try to slow

787
00:40:50,280 --> 00:40:53,760
Speaker 1: the game down, make Baylor's uncomfortable as possible, and ultimately,

788
00:40:53,800 --> 00:40:55,520
Speaker 1: if there's you know, a team they're going up against

789
00:40:55,520 --> 00:40:57,920
Speaker 1: so far this year that is gonna make the loss

790
00:40:57,960 --> 00:41:00,439
Speaker 1: of Connor Glass to be hurt. Colin Glass, he's gonna

791
00:41:00,520 --> 00:41:02,160
Speaker 1: it's gonna be this one against Baylor. So I'm not

792
00:41:02,160 --> 00:41:03,920
Speaker 1: sure we'll know they get a ton of points themselves.

793
00:41:04,120 --> 00:41:05,440
Speaker 1: So I lead it under now. But ye, that's that's

794
00:41:05,440 --> 00:41:07,719
Speaker 1: probably the biggest move of the week. So can I

795
00:41:07,800 --> 00:41:13,080
Speaker 1: express my surprise at Oral Roberts being eleven and a half.

796
00:41:13,200 --> 00:41:14,799
Speaker 1: I don't know why that's not bigger and I know

797
00:41:14,840 --> 00:41:17,400
Speaker 1: they played earlier this year. I know the history of

798
00:41:17,440 --> 00:41:20,200
Speaker 1: double digit seeds in the sweet sixteen. I've seen all

799
00:41:20,239 --> 00:41:24,200
Speaker 1: that trend stuff. I just with five days off to

800
00:41:24,280 --> 00:41:27,880
Speaker 1: think about where you are Oral Roberts, and you know,

801
00:41:27,920 --> 00:41:30,960
Speaker 1: I get the coaching edge in Arkansas. The best player

802
00:41:31,000 --> 00:41:33,840
Speaker 1: on the floor is Moody. I you know, I realized

803
00:41:33,880 --> 00:41:36,040
Speaker 1: that the point guard is a scoring machine for Oral

804
00:41:36,160 --> 00:41:38,880
Speaker 1: Roberts or eleven and a half feels like, doesn't it.

805
00:41:38,920 --> 00:41:42,160
Speaker 1: And I've seen public is hammering Oral Roberts is like

806
00:41:42,480 --> 00:41:45,120
Speaker 1: the second best play of the weekend, right wow? And

807
00:41:45,320 --> 00:41:48,680
Speaker 1: I hadn't actually seen like the public splits on percentages.

808
00:41:49,440 --> 00:41:52,439
Speaker 1: I'll say this, if there's there's one kind of theme

809
00:41:52,480 --> 00:41:54,239
Speaker 1: in the Sweet six team a lot of the time,

810
00:41:54,239 --> 00:41:56,000
Speaker 1: and I think especially this year because we saw something

811
00:41:56,120 --> 00:41:58,920
Speaker 1: upsets early on, it that the market is shaded towards

812
00:41:58,960 --> 00:42:01,960
Speaker 1: those teams that are pulling off the upsets and kind

813
00:42:01,960 --> 00:42:04,879
Speaker 1: of accounting for the recency because that's what most people

814
00:42:04,920 --> 00:42:06,600
Speaker 1: like to bet, and they're like the underdog story in

815
00:42:06,719 --> 00:42:10,719
Speaker 1: Oral Roberts. My personal projection the biggest discrepancy in a

816
00:42:10,840 --> 00:42:14,439
Speaker 1: side right now is this Arkansas or Roberts game, Meaning

817
00:42:14,560 --> 00:42:16,320
Speaker 1: I think Arkansas should be more like a thirteen and

818
00:42:16,320 --> 00:42:19,160
Speaker 1: a half point favorite, and I think it's basically eleven

819
00:42:19,160 --> 00:42:21,160
Speaker 1: and a half now across the board, so that's a

820
00:42:21,239 --> 00:42:24,279
Speaker 1: bettable discrepancy. I think Arkansas is the right side, and

821
00:42:24,320 --> 00:42:26,480
Speaker 1: people have brought up when they played earlier this year.

822
00:42:27,040 --> 00:42:28,880
Speaker 1: If you look at that game, I think it's really interesting.

823
00:42:28,960 --> 00:42:33,120
Speaker 1: Arkansas actually fell behind by ten points early and then

824
00:42:33,160 --> 00:42:35,240
Speaker 1: they ended up coming back and winning by exactly eleven,

825
00:42:35,280 --> 00:42:36,719
Speaker 1: which is kind of where the spread and been most

826
00:42:36,719 --> 00:42:38,200
Speaker 1: of the day, and it's eleven and a half now

827
00:42:38,320 --> 00:42:40,960
Speaker 1: most spots, but most of the week. I should say, Um,

828
00:42:41,080 --> 00:42:42,799
Speaker 1: if you look at that game with Arkansas shot four

829
00:42:42,920 --> 00:42:45,840
Speaker 1: twenty four from three, they went down ten early and

830
00:42:45,880 --> 00:42:48,439
Speaker 1: they still won that game by eleven. So I think

831
00:42:48,600 --> 00:42:50,480
Speaker 1: they got better down the stretch of the season, obviously

832
00:42:50,480 --> 00:42:53,120
Speaker 1: through the SEC play, and I think there's just another

833
00:42:53,200 --> 00:42:55,719
Speaker 1: level of upside and the ceiling to Arkansas now this

834
00:42:55,840 --> 00:42:58,880
Speaker 1: time around then when they played last time. And so

835
00:42:58,920 --> 00:43:01,040
Speaker 1: I don't know, people are gonna point to or Robert's

836
00:43:01,040 --> 00:43:02,879
Speaker 1: hanging in and you know, even leading at some point,

837
00:43:02,960 --> 00:43:05,479
Speaker 1: Arkansas always starts slow. It could be the case again,

838
00:43:05,520 --> 00:43:07,520
Speaker 1: but you know, I think this is a few points. Yeah,

839
00:43:07,560 --> 00:43:10,120
Speaker 1: great live betting opportunity. Right, If Oral Roberts goes up

840
00:43:10,120 --> 00:43:13,120
Speaker 1: a letter to four, you just Hammer Arkansas. So according

841
00:43:13,160 --> 00:43:17,440
Speaker 1: to bet mgm Oral Roberts of the public is on

842
00:43:17,600 --> 00:43:23,839
Speaker 1: Oral on Baylor and then on Syracuse. I gotta say,

843
00:43:23,840 --> 00:43:26,920
Speaker 1: I'm surprised at this. You know, the public sees the upsets, right,

844
00:43:27,719 --> 00:43:31,120
Speaker 1: and everybody's like, oh, upsets, upsets. Let me back the underdogs.

845
00:43:31,200 --> 00:43:34,200
Speaker 1: Underdogs are hitting or whatever the number is, and they

846
00:43:34,239 --> 00:43:36,520
Speaker 1: just jump on chasing a trend. And isn't that the

847
00:43:36,560 --> 00:43:41,160
Speaker 1: dumbest thing you can do? Usually it is. Yeah, I'll

848
00:43:41,200 --> 00:43:44,480
Speaker 1: say that Syracuse makes sense because right everyone sees them

849
00:43:44,560 --> 00:43:46,480
Speaker 1: like every other year, making a run as a low

850
00:43:46,560 --> 00:43:48,839
Speaker 1: seed with the two three zone. And then they saw

851
00:43:48,880 --> 00:43:51,279
Speaker 1: Houston that probably should have lost directors last game they

852
00:43:51,280 --> 00:43:53,200
Speaker 1: were up nine or ten Layton. Then they go on

853
00:43:53,239 --> 00:43:55,479
Speaker 1: the huge run. Houston barely escaped, so no one wants

854
00:43:55,480 --> 00:43:58,359
Speaker 1: to bet Houston against the Syracuse gone to two three zone.

855
00:43:58,520 --> 00:44:01,040
Speaker 1: I'll say I passed completely on my game. I thought

856
00:44:01,040 --> 00:44:03,200
Speaker 1: it was lined pretty fairly, but the sea most of

857
00:44:03,200 --> 00:44:05,440
Speaker 1: the action on theirpy is not surprising at all. Uh.

858
00:44:05,600 --> 00:44:08,279
Speaker 1: Just the last one, Creighton Gonzaga. I'm sure you were

859
00:44:08,360 --> 00:44:12,040
Speaker 1: on Oklahoma against Gonzaga. Everybody seemed to like Oklahoma, you

860
00:44:12,080 --> 00:44:14,480
Speaker 1: guys got job there. In the final two minutes. I

861
00:44:14,880 --> 00:44:17,279
Speaker 1: think I haven't heard one person say Creton can hang

862
00:44:17,280 --> 00:44:22,719
Speaker 1: with him. I took the thirteen and a half. Wow. Interesting. Okay,

863
00:44:22,719 --> 00:44:25,120
Speaker 1: So I I watched that U C s B Creighton game.

864
00:44:25,120 --> 00:44:27,560
Speaker 1: Obviously I was invested in your CSB. They should have

865
00:44:27,560 --> 00:44:31,880
Speaker 1: won that. However, I was impressed with Creighton's players. They've

866
00:44:31,880 --> 00:44:33,839
Speaker 1: got guys who can go one on one. The point

867
00:44:33,840 --> 00:44:36,480
Speaker 1: guard zagar Rowski is really good, the big kid Bishop.

868
00:44:36,680 --> 00:44:39,080
Speaker 1: They've got a couple of wings that are active, and

869
00:44:39,440 --> 00:44:42,640
Speaker 1: if they can get tempo, man, these guys can make

870
00:44:42,680 --> 00:44:44,759
Speaker 1: a lot of threes. We saw them destroy Ohio. It

871
00:44:44,800 --> 00:44:47,960
Speaker 1: was never close. There's a confidence level with this team.

872
00:44:48,000 --> 00:44:51,320
Speaker 1: And I looked at that Oklahoma team. Gonzaga's defense is

873
00:44:51,560 --> 00:44:53,960
Speaker 1: as highly rate. I think they're seventh in ken Pom,

874
00:44:54,000 --> 00:44:57,160
Speaker 1: but that that conference was a joke Preston. That conference

875
00:44:57,239 --> 00:45:00,040
Speaker 1: was so bad this year, and the way Oklahoma it

876
00:45:00,120 --> 00:45:02,919
Speaker 1: was able to move it on good Zaga. I kind

877
00:45:02,920 --> 00:45:06,840
Speaker 1: of like, great here getting not to win. Honestly, Okay,

878
00:45:06,840 --> 00:45:09,960
Speaker 1: A couple of things. For one, kempom adjust his defensive

879
00:45:09,960 --> 00:45:13,400
Speaker 1: efficiencies for competition. So theoretically that you throw that up

880
00:45:13,440 --> 00:45:15,840
Speaker 1: the window, maybe he's over adjusting though, because it is

881
00:45:15,880 --> 00:45:18,399
Speaker 1: West Coast Conference and his numbers on the Big Ten

882
00:45:18,440 --> 00:45:20,440
Speaker 1: were probably too high and entering the tournament. I mean,

883
00:45:20,440 --> 00:45:22,759
Speaker 1: there's some arguments you could be made, but ultimately he

884
00:45:22,840 --> 00:45:24,960
Speaker 1: is trying to adjust for that. In fact, I'll say this,

885
00:45:25,000 --> 00:45:27,840
Speaker 1: who was it is? Reads the name of the Oklahoma kids.

886
00:45:28,400 --> 00:45:30,160
Speaker 1: He just didn't he didn't miss in that game, and

887
00:45:30,560 --> 00:45:32,680
Speaker 1: good Zaga went down I think eight right away in

888
00:45:32,680 --> 00:45:35,040
Speaker 1: the game, and you know they're still won by sixteen.

889
00:45:35,200 --> 00:45:38,319
Speaker 1: So I mean, I feel like Creton has to have

890
00:45:38,360 --> 00:45:40,640
Speaker 1: a performance similar to that just to kind of hang

891
00:45:40,640 --> 00:45:43,400
Speaker 1: around because no one stopping Gonzaga in the end. Uh.

892
00:45:43,440 --> 00:45:45,920
Speaker 1: And I heard someone kind of put it this way,

893
00:45:45,960 --> 00:45:47,600
Speaker 1: and I thought it was a pretty good comparison. I

894
00:45:47,680 --> 00:45:49,640
Speaker 1: can't credit them. I don't remember who it was this week,

895
00:45:49,719 --> 00:45:52,600
Speaker 1: but he called Creighton kind of just Gonzaga light. And

896
00:45:52,640 --> 00:45:54,880
Speaker 1: a lot of times when you have mismatches or you

897
00:45:54,920 --> 00:45:58,040
Speaker 1: have an advantage in one fast of the game because

898
00:45:58,040 --> 00:46:00,440
Speaker 1: you play differently than a team like Gonzaga go who's

899
00:46:00,440 --> 00:46:03,080
Speaker 1: a big favorite, you can try to maximize that advantage

900
00:46:03,080 --> 00:46:05,680
Speaker 1: of that edge, and ultimately, when it's a similar type

901
00:46:05,680 --> 00:46:07,680
Speaker 1: of team playing a similar type of game, but there's

902
00:46:07,680 --> 00:46:10,680
Speaker 1: just a lot worse at it, and every it's hard

903
00:46:10,719 --> 00:46:12,920
Speaker 1: to it's hard to really pull an upset offense. That's

904
00:46:12,960 --> 00:46:15,040
Speaker 1: kind of where cratons that, where they play similar style

905
00:46:15,120 --> 00:46:18,160
Speaker 1: the Gonzaga, they're just not nearly as talented or as

906
00:46:18,200 --> 00:46:20,719
Speaker 1: good at doing it, And so that's kind of thing

907
00:46:20,760 --> 00:46:22,680
Speaker 1: gets the worry ultimately. I mean, there's still a team

908
00:46:22,719 --> 00:46:24,600
Speaker 1: that you talked about the last two games, three games ago,

909
00:46:24,680 --> 00:46:27,719
Speaker 1: then they lose to uh Georgetown by a hundred. Yes,

910
00:46:27,800 --> 00:46:31,880
Speaker 1: so I mean it's it's it's dangerous. I would stay away, though,

911
00:46:31,920 --> 00:46:34,120
Speaker 1: I think thirteen is right. When my line is, if

912
00:46:34,120 --> 00:46:35,480
Speaker 1: you got thirteen and a half, I guess I would

913
00:46:35,800 --> 00:46:38,400
Speaker 1: semi lean your direction barely, but not enough for a

914
00:46:38,440 --> 00:46:40,640
Speaker 1: real bed. All right. I know you're a big NBA guy,

915
00:46:40,920 --> 00:46:44,319
Speaker 1: not just gambling. You like devour the NBA. I am

916
00:46:44,480 --> 00:46:47,000
Speaker 1: really curious just to where you are on Kyle Lowry.

917
00:46:47,320 --> 00:46:50,759
Speaker 1: This this hype over Kyle Lowry, like he was going

918
00:46:50,800 --> 00:46:53,560
Speaker 1: to completely change so many teams if a thirty five

919
00:46:53,640 --> 00:46:55,880
Speaker 1: year old point guard got there. I know he's a

920
00:46:55,880 --> 00:46:58,520
Speaker 1: good defender. I know he's a veteran leader in a

921
00:46:58,600 --> 00:47:02,280
Speaker 1: voice in the locker room, but Preston. On some level,

922
00:47:02,840 --> 00:47:05,960
Speaker 1: Kyle Lowry has basically thought of before Kawhi Leonard got there,

923
00:47:06,000 --> 00:47:08,320
Speaker 1: is oh good regular season player, and in the playoffs

924
00:47:08,320 --> 00:47:10,840
Speaker 1: he just soils himself. He vomits all over himself in

925
00:47:10,880 --> 00:47:13,719
Speaker 1: the postseason. At one point in one series where they

926
00:47:13,760 --> 00:47:16,400
Speaker 1: got swept. I think he was benched halfway through it

927
00:47:16,400 --> 00:47:18,280
Speaker 1: because he was playing so badly him and to Rosen,

928
00:47:18,600 --> 00:47:20,680
Speaker 1: all they would do is choke. Then he gets Kawhi

929
00:47:20,800 --> 00:47:23,759
Speaker 1: Leonard and they win a title. The entire Warrior's team

930
00:47:23,800 --> 00:47:26,120
Speaker 1: is injured, and it's like Kyle Lowry, Oh my gosh,

931
00:47:26,120 --> 00:47:29,520
Speaker 1: he's amazing. Like it's pretty clear the Heat we're not

932
00:47:29,520 --> 00:47:32,640
Speaker 1: willing to give up anything for him. The Sixers Darryl Moury, No,

933
00:47:32,719 --> 00:47:34,960
Speaker 1: we're not doing it. Like I don't know where are

934
00:47:34,960 --> 00:47:38,120
Speaker 1: you and Kyle Lowry? Would he have changed so much

935
00:47:38,239 --> 00:47:41,359
Speaker 1: if he got traded somewhere? So I'm not sure if

936
00:47:41,360 --> 00:47:45,120
Speaker 1: this has been like confirmed publicly, I have on good authority.

937
00:47:45,400 --> 00:47:49,000
Speaker 1: It came down to, ultimately, if the Heat wanted to

938
00:47:49,040 --> 00:47:50,840
Speaker 1: give up Hero it was a done deal that the

939
00:47:50,920 --> 00:47:53,319
Speaker 1: Lakers wanted to give up Taylor, Horton Tucker. It was

940
00:47:53,320 --> 00:47:55,239
Speaker 1: a done deal and neither wanted to give up that.

941
00:47:55,360 --> 00:47:57,960
Speaker 1: So I think in some respects what you're getting at

942
00:47:58,040 --> 00:48:00,000
Speaker 1: is probably true. No one really thought it was worth

943
00:48:00,000 --> 00:48:02,600
Speaker 1: giving a PhD or Hero or a couple of picks

944
00:48:02,600 --> 00:48:05,359
Speaker 1: in Maxie and Table in the Sixers case for half

945
00:48:05,360 --> 00:48:07,560
Speaker 1: the season of Lowry and he's an unrestricted free agency

946
00:48:07,560 --> 00:48:09,840
Speaker 1: door or he wants after that. I will say this,

947
00:48:09,880 --> 00:48:12,960
Speaker 1: you know, you know me, I'm generally analytically driven, Like

948
00:48:13,000 --> 00:48:15,279
Speaker 1: I don't really care about a lot of stuff, but

949
00:48:15,800 --> 00:48:19,000
Speaker 1: like all the extra stuff off the corridor or or

950
00:48:19,040 --> 00:48:21,799
Speaker 1: you know, I test stuff. One thing that's always intrigued me.

951
00:48:21,880 --> 00:48:24,279
Speaker 1: Do you remember the first time in the NBA All

952
00:48:24,320 --> 00:48:28,200
Speaker 1: Star Game they did the elm ending We've been last year, okay,

953
00:48:28,840 --> 00:48:31,160
Speaker 1: and down the stretch it was. It was awesome because

954
00:48:31,160 --> 00:48:34,160
Speaker 1: it was a close game and each and this is

955
00:48:34,200 --> 00:48:36,640
Speaker 1: in an era now for All Star Games where Lebron

956
00:48:36,680 --> 00:48:38,879
Speaker 1: and Katie or whoever it is are drafting their own

957
00:48:38,920 --> 00:48:41,560
Speaker 1: teams and down this, down the stretch of that game,

958
00:48:42,360 --> 00:48:44,759
Speaker 1: Kyle Lowry was one of the ten guys on the

959
00:48:44,760 --> 00:48:47,759
Speaker 1: floor with with the guys that are most respected in

960
00:48:47,800 --> 00:48:50,000
Speaker 1: the league playing with each other, these are the best

961
00:48:50,000 --> 00:48:52,080
Speaker 1: ten in the world. Like we need to win this

962
00:48:52,200 --> 00:48:53,840
Speaker 1: end of this because there was a charity component. I

963
00:48:53,840 --> 00:48:55,799
Speaker 1: think conters housand for each player to go so charity

964
00:48:55,840 --> 00:48:58,399
Speaker 1: like they were really really trying, and Lowry was playing

965
00:48:58,440 --> 00:49:00,520
Speaker 1: actually really really well. But aside for the fact he

966
00:49:00,560 --> 00:49:03,040
Speaker 1: was playing well, the fact that Lebron and Company and

967
00:49:03,080 --> 00:49:05,959
Speaker 1: everyone on those teams considered Lowry a top ten player

968
00:49:05,960 --> 00:49:07,880
Speaker 1: in the league, I've always I gained a lot of

969
00:49:07,920 --> 00:49:09,759
Speaker 1: respect for him kind of through the eyes of these

970
00:49:09,800 --> 00:49:12,000
Speaker 1: top tier players that he was on the floor, like

971
00:49:12,040 --> 00:49:14,080
Speaker 1: Chris Paul was also on the floor during that time,

972
00:49:14,600 --> 00:49:17,279
Speaker 1: and and I thought that it was just an interesting note.

973
00:49:17,280 --> 00:49:18,960
Speaker 1: But now if you look at his numbers this year,

974
00:49:19,120 --> 00:49:24,000
Speaker 1: they've completely dropped off, like impact offensive defensive side. Part

975
00:49:24,000 --> 00:49:25,360
Speaker 1: of that has the two what they lost both of

976
00:49:25,400 --> 00:49:27,560
Speaker 1: their centers and the boxing costole right, Like the team

977
00:49:27,600 --> 00:49:29,120
Speaker 1: is just not as good, So that's part of it.

978
00:49:29,280 --> 00:49:31,520
Speaker 1: But if he went to a team like a semi contender,

979
00:49:31,719 --> 00:49:34,120
Speaker 1: I think he would still make a difference. I don't

980
00:49:34,120 --> 00:49:35,640
Speaker 1: know if he would move a needle enough for say

981
00:49:35,640 --> 00:49:38,240
Speaker 1: the Sixers to beat the Nets in the series ultimately,

982
00:49:38,440 --> 00:49:39,839
Speaker 1: but it would be I think I think it would

983
00:49:39,840 --> 00:49:42,160
Speaker 1: have been closer for sure, So I'm probably somewhere in

984
00:49:42,200 --> 00:49:43,799
Speaker 1: the middle between where you're at and then kind of

985
00:49:43,840 --> 00:49:46,040
Speaker 1: where people thought he could make a difference. Okay, true

986
00:49:46,120 --> 00:49:50,520
Speaker 1: or false? Denver Nuggets have the best depth chart in

987
00:49:50,560 --> 00:49:58,160
Speaker 1: the Western Conference? Uh? Extremely false? Wow? Okay? Where why not?

988
00:49:58,280 --> 00:50:01,440
Speaker 1: You don't like the ar Gordon? I mean it's it's fine.

989
00:50:01,640 --> 00:50:04,200
Speaker 1: I mean there might be some untapped Aaron Gordon potential

990
00:50:04,200 --> 00:50:06,840
Speaker 1: always he's been stuck in Orlando for seven years. His

991
00:50:07,000 --> 00:50:09,440
Speaker 1: offensive impact going and playing with someone like your kid,

992
00:50:09,480 --> 00:50:12,240
Speaker 1: choose one of the best you know, distributors and pastors

993
00:50:12,239 --> 00:50:13,960
Speaker 1: in the history of the game, let alone for a

994
00:50:13,960 --> 00:50:16,480
Speaker 1: big guy just in general, even Jamal Murray is probably

995
00:50:16,480 --> 00:50:19,279
Speaker 1: the second best playmaker. So I'll give you that. Like,

996
00:50:19,280 --> 00:50:21,880
Speaker 1: there's some upside there on that side of things. But

997
00:50:22,160 --> 00:50:24,080
Speaker 1: when you look at like, like, do you know who

998
00:50:24,120 --> 00:50:26,520
Speaker 1: played off the bench yesterday against the Pelicans for the

999
00:50:26,640 --> 00:50:28,640
Speaker 1: for the Nuggets? Well, I think they're a little short,

1000
00:50:28,680 --> 00:50:31,680
Speaker 1: aren't they. But to tell me who will they will?

1001
00:50:31,680 --> 00:50:33,560
Speaker 1: They just traded a couple of their guys who would

1002
00:50:33,600 --> 00:50:36,080
Speaker 1: potentially be bench pushed. And it's like p J doeser,

1003
00:50:36,320 --> 00:50:40,440
Speaker 1: he's not. He's the sixth man right now and and

1004
00:50:40,480 --> 00:50:42,440
Speaker 1: now and Paul millsapp will probably be coming off the

1005
00:50:42,440 --> 00:50:45,160
Speaker 1: bench when Aaron Gordon eventually it's playing. But then they

1006
00:50:45,200 --> 00:50:49,000
Speaker 1: have Compazzo the kid, that guy. They have some guy

1007
00:50:49,040 --> 00:50:51,319
Speaker 1: named nan He I think and and and j I

1008
00:50:52,000 --> 00:50:54,239
Speaker 1: And they traded R J Ampton a way who had

1009
00:50:54,280 --> 00:50:56,840
Speaker 1: been playing minutes who maybe it will be good in them.

1010
00:50:57,239 --> 00:51:00,200
Speaker 1: They're they're far from depths in my opinion, to have

1011
00:51:00,320 --> 00:51:02,560
Speaker 1: one of the best starting fives one through five, maybe

1012
00:51:02,560 --> 00:51:05,359
Speaker 1: you could make that argument. It's closer, but a six

1013
00:51:05,440 --> 00:51:07,200
Speaker 1: through X right where you need to have a few

1014
00:51:07,239 --> 00:51:09,200
Speaker 1: guys in the playoffs that can't just get destroyed. We

1015
00:51:10,200 --> 00:51:12,520
Speaker 1: know you're I know you're a Monty Morris guy. Everybody

1016
00:51:12,560 --> 00:51:15,759
Speaker 1: loves Monty Morris. And and Dozer was pretty good in

1017
00:51:15,760 --> 00:51:19,000
Speaker 1: that Laker series and small doses. Maybe he's ready to

1018
00:51:19,000 --> 00:51:21,000
Speaker 1: make the leap. I mean, I don't think they're gonna

1019
00:51:21,000 --> 00:51:24,640
Speaker 1: start Michael Porter Jr. Are they Yeah? I think they will.

1020
00:51:25,000 --> 00:51:31,480
Speaker 1: He's the third best score he's been averaging game Preston, Murray, Yokich,

1021
00:51:31,560 --> 00:51:37,200
Speaker 1: Gordon and Porter. That's incredible maybe, but also but it's

1022
00:51:37,239 --> 00:51:39,160
Speaker 1: if you have to rely on Morris and those are

1023
00:51:39,160 --> 00:51:41,399
Speaker 1: still for forty minutes of the game. You're just gonna

1024
00:51:41,400 --> 00:51:42,799
Speaker 1: get beat in the playoffs. I don't know. I don't

1025
00:51:42,800 --> 00:51:45,200
Speaker 1: think they have enough yet, but I do respect that

1026
00:51:45,239 --> 00:51:47,239
Speaker 1: they made a move in our trying right, and they

1027
00:51:47,280 --> 00:51:49,520
Speaker 1: see they sense the opening because Lebron and a d

1028
00:51:49,600 --> 00:51:52,160
Speaker 1: are both hurt, maybe there's a chance there's an opportunity.

1029
00:51:52,200 --> 00:51:54,799
Speaker 1: But yeah, it's not. It's not that kind. I think

1030
00:51:55,040 --> 00:51:58,480
Speaker 1: eventually moved true or false, the Clippers are complete frauds

1031
00:51:58,560 --> 00:52:03,000
Speaker 1: and they could lose in the first round. I mean, okay,

1032
00:52:03,400 --> 00:52:05,759
Speaker 1: it's possible. Yeah, so I guess I have to say true, Yeah,

1033
00:52:05,760 --> 00:52:07,840
Speaker 1: it's definitely possible. You know, I don't really deal in

1034
00:52:07,960 --> 00:52:12,120
Speaker 1: uncertainties or certainties, but they're better than they were last season,

1035
00:52:12,640 --> 00:52:16,280
Speaker 1: and offensively especially, and you know, reports through the bubble

1036
00:52:16,320 --> 00:52:18,200
Speaker 1: really kind of messed them up. And I think I'm

1037
00:52:18,200 --> 00:52:20,440
Speaker 1: not gonna just say that because they got beat by

1038
00:52:20,480 --> 00:52:22,280
Speaker 1: Denver when they were up three one in the series

1039
00:52:22,320 --> 00:52:24,160
Speaker 1: and up you know, seventeen or whatever it was at

1040
00:52:24,160 --> 00:52:26,560
Speaker 1: half time before joking away like they easily could have

1041
00:52:26,600 --> 00:52:27,920
Speaker 1: won that series and gone on and you know, just

1042
00:52:27,920 --> 00:52:29,799
Speaker 1: played the Lakers, and no one's even talking about it

1043
00:52:29,800 --> 00:52:31,719
Speaker 1: because well, they lost to the eventual champion in the

1044
00:52:31,719 --> 00:52:34,560
Speaker 1: Western Conference, but it's probably the way they lost right

1045
00:52:34,680 --> 00:52:37,960
Speaker 1: up three one, leading every game and halftime and then

1046
00:52:38,200 --> 00:52:42,360
Speaker 1: I know you're analytically driven, but at what point, Preston,

1047
00:52:42,480 --> 00:52:45,960
Speaker 1: do you say, man, this team has a leadership issue.

1048
00:52:46,120 --> 00:52:48,560
Speaker 1: You know, who is the guy in the huddle, like

1049
00:52:48,600 --> 00:52:50,719
Speaker 1: you said, Kyle lowryach on the court at the end

1050
00:52:50,760 --> 00:52:54,240
Speaker 1: for the elm ending, who's the guy on the Clippers

1051
00:52:54,280 --> 00:52:56,480
Speaker 1: to speak up and say, come on, you know you

1052
00:52:56,560 --> 00:52:58,439
Speaker 1: messed up. We gotta get this right. We know it's

1053
00:52:58,480 --> 00:53:01,560
Speaker 1: like a Lebron We know it's like the big dogs

1054
00:53:01,640 --> 00:53:04,680
Speaker 1: do that. Okay, I don't know who does that on

1055
00:53:04,719 --> 00:53:09,880
Speaker 1: the Clippers. Hopefully it's Kawhi Leonard because he doesn't speak

1056
00:53:09,880 --> 00:53:13,480
Speaker 1: really at all ever, and once he does then it's like, okay,

1057
00:53:13,719 --> 00:53:17,840
Speaker 1: well but he's never done that in his career. Yeah,

1058
00:53:17,880 --> 00:53:22,080
Speaker 1: it's fair. It was Lowry, wasn't it in Toronto? Yeah? No,

1059
00:53:22,360 --> 00:53:24,480
Speaker 1: I think Lowry was had It was kind of like

1060
00:53:24,560 --> 00:53:26,960
Speaker 1: a combo force there where Kawai was the guy who

1061
00:53:27,000 --> 00:53:29,160
Speaker 1: just got the job done, but Lowry was vocal about it.

1062
00:53:29,480 --> 00:53:31,200
Speaker 1: I agree, it kind of needs to be. I guess,

1063
00:53:31,280 --> 00:53:33,879
Speaker 1: like what Patrick Beverley, but he's not nearly as good

1064
00:53:34,040 --> 00:53:35,920
Speaker 1: he can be the voice I guess, so is it Rondo?

1065
00:53:36,239 --> 00:53:38,200
Speaker 1: Is that why they got Rondo to get some veteran

1066
00:53:38,800 --> 00:53:41,359
Speaker 1: leadership in the huddle? Playoff Rondo, it's a real thing.

1067
00:53:42,360 --> 00:53:44,520
Speaker 1: It kind of is, which I never would have admitted

1068
00:53:44,560 --> 00:53:46,840
Speaker 1: a couple of years ago, but does every playoffs Rondo

1069
00:53:46,880 --> 00:53:48,759
Speaker 1: is so much better than the regular season. I think

1070
00:53:48,760 --> 00:53:51,040
Speaker 1: he definitely adds the i Q element of just how

1071
00:53:51,040 --> 00:53:52,840
Speaker 1: they're going to prepare from the game to game basis,

1072
00:53:52,840 --> 00:53:55,680
Speaker 1: strategically in a series, almost on a coaching level. I

1073
00:53:55,960 --> 00:53:58,319
Speaker 1: heard a podcast recously where they were really dissecting what

1074
00:53:58,440 --> 00:54:00,960
Speaker 1: Rondo does with every player and and the value he

1075
00:54:01,000 --> 00:54:03,759
Speaker 1: can add there. And so Luilliams the kind of he

1076
00:54:04,239 --> 00:54:06,720
Speaker 1: didn't necessarily drop off a ton, but he wasn't getting

1077
00:54:07,320 --> 00:54:09,400
Speaker 1: as much run. And you know, they were trusting what

1078
00:54:09,480 --> 00:54:11,560
Speaker 1: they paid Luke Nard, and they were playing Reggie Jackson

1079
00:54:11,560 --> 00:54:13,480
Speaker 1: more frequently than Williams anyway, And so I know a

1080
00:54:13,520 --> 00:54:15,080
Speaker 1: lot of people think why did they do that trade?

1081
00:54:15,080 --> 00:54:17,080
Speaker 1: But lou Williams wasn't really a part of their future

1082
00:54:17,120 --> 00:54:19,399
Speaker 1: and even this season his minutes had gone down quite

1083
00:54:19,400 --> 00:54:22,080
Speaker 1: a bit. Alright, real real quick. I I touted the

1084
00:54:22,120 --> 00:54:24,360
Speaker 1: Celtics to you about a month ago as a Bilow

1085
00:54:24,680 --> 00:54:27,040
Speaker 1: and you were like, oh interesting. And now they have

1086
00:54:27,080 --> 00:54:31,160
Speaker 1: everybody healthy and it's still like sputtering. Do you did

1087
00:54:31,160 --> 00:54:33,360
Speaker 1: you like the move for and this can the Celtics

1088
00:54:33,400 --> 00:54:36,799
Speaker 1: still make noise in the East? I think so. I

1089
00:54:36,840 --> 00:54:39,640
Speaker 1: love the move with Fournier. I think it's possible that

1090
00:54:40,680 --> 00:54:44,080
Speaker 1: the Celtics in the East kid can do something. My

1091
00:54:44,239 --> 00:54:48,799
Speaker 1: my worry is, so they traded Daniel Tye. Why did

1092
00:54:48,800 --> 00:54:51,200
Speaker 1: they do that to get under the cat luxury text?

1093
00:54:51,840 --> 00:54:54,160
Speaker 1: So the big man they're rlling on now is Robert Williams,

1094
00:54:54,160 --> 00:54:57,040
Speaker 1: who was young and like he's just gonna get pack.

1095
00:54:57,080 --> 00:54:58,759
Speaker 1: He doesn't know where to rotate in the playoffs series,

1096
00:54:58,880 --> 00:55:01,120
Speaker 1: He's just gonna get picked on. Grant Williams is playing

1097
00:55:01,160 --> 00:55:03,840
Speaker 1: backup remote Wagner they got in the deal is I

1098
00:55:03,840 --> 00:55:06,120
Speaker 1: mean he might end up being okay, you can space.

1099
00:55:06,719 --> 00:55:09,359
Speaker 1: My worry is that I think if they had kept

1100
00:55:09,400 --> 00:55:11,960
Speaker 1: Tice but then also got Fournier and there then they

1101
00:55:12,000 --> 00:55:13,839
Speaker 1: have you know, they're a little deeper than they were

1102
00:55:14,200 --> 00:55:16,800
Speaker 1: in Fornio. Saw some of the issues offensively, when you

1103
00:55:16,840 --> 00:55:18,520
Speaker 1: know they need some card play, they can distribute kind

1104
00:55:18,800 --> 00:55:20,440
Speaker 1: some of the stuff that they lost with Cordon Heyward.

1105
00:55:20,560 --> 00:55:23,919
Speaker 1: So I'm a little perplexed by the Daniel Tyson moves,

1106
00:55:23,960 --> 00:55:27,120
Speaker 1: but I appreciated the Forner edition to help. They're shooting

1107
00:55:27,160 --> 00:55:30,040
Speaker 1: in an offense in general. All Right, He's Preston Johnson,

1108
00:55:30,080 --> 00:55:32,200
Speaker 1: a k the sports get to keep up the good work. Preston.

1109

1115
00:55:51,920 --> 00:55:57,359
Speaker 1: like the Denver Nuggets. It's me Jason McEntire live from

1116
00:55:57,400 --> 00:55:59,920
Speaker 1: the Farmer's Insurance Fox Sports Radio Studio. It's called one

1117

Speaker 1: date Farmers to switch and you could save a bundle

1118
00:56:02,680 --> 00:56:11,680
Speaker 1: on your auto insurance. So this is something, um, I

1119
00:56:11,680 --> 00:56:14,960
Speaker 1: don't know. I was. I was stunned at this. I'm surprised.

1120
00:56:15,360 --> 00:56:18,120
Speaker 1: This is gonna sound very weird when I tell you this.

1121
00:56:19,320 --> 00:56:26,000
Speaker 1: So I my first newspaper job was in Bergen County,

1122
00:56:26,920 --> 00:56:31,920
Speaker 1: New Jersey, and the biggest name in that county or town. Right,

1123
00:56:32,120 --> 00:56:34,839
Speaker 1: it's like a bedroom community right outside New York City

1124
00:56:35,080 --> 00:56:37,759
Speaker 1: and a lot of like you know, wealthy folks who

1125
00:56:37,760 --> 00:56:40,240
Speaker 1: work in the city live in Bergen County right outside

1126
00:56:40,400 --> 00:56:45,320
Speaker 1: the city. Um, the biggest, one of the biggest names

1127
00:56:45,400 --> 00:56:49,200
Speaker 1: when I was there was obviously Phil Simms, the announcer

1128
00:56:49,200 --> 00:56:53,600
Speaker 1: for CBS. His kid, Chris Sims, is from that area.

1129
00:56:53,800 --> 00:56:56,280
Speaker 1: And Chris Sims, as you know, he was a qualite

1130
00:56:56,320 --> 00:56:59,640
Speaker 1: quarterback at I think it was Texas, and I don't

1131
00:56:59,640 --> 00:57:01,520
Speaker 1: think he got a I don't know if he was

1132
00:57:01,520 --> 00:57:02,839
Speaker 1: in the NFL, he might have been. But now he's

1133
00:57:02,880 --> 00:57:06,200
Speaker 1: like a media guy. Oh he was in the NFL

1134
00:57:06,200 --> 00:57:09,239
Speaker 1: with the Bucks. He play, Yeah, he was quarterback for

1135
00:57:09,320 --> 00:57:15,560
Speaker 1: the Buccaneers. So now he's a media guy, and he

1136
00:57:15,760 --> 00:57:18,400
Speaker 1: is pushing this silly narrative since the Jimmy g trade

1137
00:57:18,400 --> 00:57:24,320
Speaker 1: that Oh, Kyle Shanahan, he wants Mac Jones, that's his guy. Like,

1138
00:57:24,440 --> 00:57:29,640
Speaker 1: what the hell, Mac Jones, what are you talking about? Comedy?

1139
00:57:29,840 --> 00:57:33,520
Speaker 1: Get out of here. So Gavin during the last break

1140
00:57:33,640 --> 00:57:37,080
Speaker 1: is like, yo, Chris Simms is tight with Kyle Shanahan.

1141
00:57:37,400 --> 00:57:40,000
Speaker 1: And of course I look up from texting someone else,

1142
00:57:40,080 --> 00:57:44,520
Speaker 1: what this is a story. This is a true, a

1143
00:57:44,640 --> 00:57:46,960
Speaker 1: real story. I can't believe Gavin found this. This is

1144
00:57:46,960 --> 00:57:48,760
Speaker 1: why he's such a so good at his damn job,

1145
00:57:49,480 --> 00:57:53,320
Speaker 1: and I keep closing the stupid window. So, Kyle Shanahan

1146
00:57:53,680 --> 00:57:57,280
Speaker 1: was a wide receiver at Texas when Chris Simms was

1147
00:57:57,320 --> 00:58:03,840
Speaker 1: a quarterback, and they were so close that they got

1148
00:58:03,880 --> 00:58:08,840
Speaker 1: each other's initials tattooed on their body. Now, I'm not gonna,

1149
00:58:09,160 --> 00:58:14,520
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna. I'm not gonna speculate as to why

1150
00:58:14,680 --> 00:58:17,000
Speaker 1: two dudes would do that. But they were good buddies.

1151
00:58:18,040 --> 00:58:21,040
Speaker 1: And I guess, um who who was the one that

1152
00:58:21,080 --> 00:58:23,320
Speaker 1: was mortified when this came out? According to this is

1153
00:58:23,360 --> 00:58:29,440
Speaker 1: in the San Jose Mercury News. Um, Kyle Shanahan was

1154
00:58:29,520 --> 00:58:33,160
Speaker 1: more than willing to tell that story. And I guess

1155
00:58:33,240 --> 00:58:37,000
Speaker 1: Phil Simms was embarrassed for his son, Chris Sims, getting

1156
00:58:37,000 --> 00:58:41,840
Speaker 1: the tattoo initials of of his buddy tattooed. So this week,

1157
00:58:41,880 --> 00:58:46,840
Speaker 1: when Chris Simms is pushing this Mac Jones idea, one

1158
00:58:46,880 --> 00:58:49,960
Speaker 1: of two things could be at play. One is he

1159
00:58:50,000 --> 00:58:52,600
Speaker 1: knows this is who his buddy wants, who's gonna fit

1160
00:58:52,640 --> 00:58:56,000
Speaker 1: his system, He's gonna draft him, Okay, But if he's

1161
00:58:56,000 --> 00:59:00,720
Speaker 1: his buddy, why on earth would he be selling out

1162
00:59:00,720 --> 00:59:03,800
Speaker 1: the idea of whose buddy wants to draft or is

1163
00:59:03,840 --> 00:59:07,000
Speaker 1: he doing misdirection for his good foul good pal Kyle

1164
00:59:07,000 --> 00:59:09,360
Speaker 1: shan and say, oh, Mac Joes who he wants? Mac

1165
00:59:09,440 --> 00:59:12,080
Speaker 1: Jones is who he wants to keep the attention from

1166
00:59:12,120 --> 00:59:15,760
Speaker 1: who he really wants, which is obviously justin fields and

1167
00:59:15,800 --> 00:59:19,720
Speaker 1: trade lands idle. Where do you fall, Gavin, it's early

1168
00:59:19,760 --> 00:59:21,840
Speaker 1: in the process. I tend to agree with you there.

1169
00:59:21,840 --> 00:59:24,640
Speaker 1: I feel like if Mac Jones was your guy, he

1170
00:59:24,680 --> 00:59:28,200
Speaker 1: would have been there at twelve. You don't give up

1171
00:59:28,600 --> 00:59:32,600
Speaker 1: three first round picks for Mac Jones, especially with Kyle Shanahan.

1172
00:59:32,640 --> 00:59:35,560
Speaker 1: He needs the guy that can move, you know. No, yeah,

1173
00:59:35,640 --> 00:59:38,280
Speaker 1: Kyle Shanahan did turn Matt Ryan into an m v P.

1174
00:59:39,080 --> 00:59:42,760
Speaker 1: Jones is definitely comparable to Matt Ryan. But um, yeah,

1175
00:59:42,840 --> 00:59:46,680
Speaker 1: the trade would make no sense if Mac was their guy. Now,

1176
00:59:47,360 --> 00:59:53,560
Speaker 1: I guess Pro Football Talk Mike Florio saw the tweet

1177
00:59:53,600 --> 00:59:56,400
Speaker 1: we put out about why Jimmy g is gonna actually

1178
00:59:56,520 --> 01:00:01,200
Speaker 1: stay in San Francisco for a year, and Florio, you know,

1179
01:00:01,600 --> 01:00:07,240
Speaker 1: without mentioning this show, says, oh, they gave up two

1180
01:00:07,280 --> 01:00:10,160
Speaker 1: ones and a third round pick and they swapped positions

1181
01:00:10,160 --> 01:00:12,880
Speaker 1: for one. So technically, somebody might call three ones. They

1182
01:00:12,920 --> 01:00:16,720
Speaker 1: will not be sitting behind Jimmy g for a year. Well,

1183
01:00:17,240 --> 01:00:20,360
Speaker 1: the Kansas City Chiefs moved up. Now I don't have

1184
01:00:20,400 --> 01:00:22,360
Speaker 1: what they traded in front of me to get my

1185
01:00:22,440 --> 01:00:30,960
Speaker 1: homes and they sat Patrick mahomes for a year. I

1186
01:00:31,040 --> 01:00:34,920
Speaker 1: don't know. Like I like Justin Fields a lot. I

1187
01:00:35,000 --> 01:00:37,640
Speaker 1: like Trey Lance. Trey Lance is twenty years old. He's

1188
01:00:37,680 --> 01:00:40,200
Speaker 1: only gonna be twenty when the draft happens. The Bills

1189
01:00:40,360 --> 01:00:43,320
Speaker 1: had the tenth pick in that draft. They made a

1190
01:00:43,360 --> 01:00:48,760
Speaker 1: trade with the Chiefs including Kansas City pick, third round pick,

1191
01:00:49,760 --> 01:00:53,320
Speaker 1: first round picks, so they gave up less than to

1192
01:00:53,400 --> 01:00:56,720
Speaker 1: get to ten. Well then to get up to three. Yeah, huh.

1193
01:00:57,160 --> 01:01:00,000
Speaker 1: The thing is is to me, it always did seem

1194
01:01:00,040 --> 01:01:02,680
Speaker 1: you know, yesterday I say always, But it seems like

1195
01:01:02,720 --> 01:01:06,400
Speaker 1: a lot to give up for the third choice in

1196
01:01:06,440 --> 01:01:09,560
Speaker 1: a draft. You know, essentially you're most likely getting the

1197
01:01:09,640 --> 01:01:13,960
Speaker 1: third picket quarterback. Now, last year, the third quarterback taken

1198
01:01:14,160 --> 01:01:17,720
Speaker 1: Justin Herbert. It was probably the best quarterback of that draft.

1199
01:01:17,760 --> 01:01:21,440
Speaker 1: So that could happen. But Trevor Lawrence is gone. We

1200
01:01:21,440 --> 01:01:24,280
Speaker 1: we all but think that Zack Wilson is also going

1201
01:01:24,360 --> 01:01:27,880
Speaker 1: to be gone, So the draft essentially starts at three.

1202
01:01:28,600 --> 01:01:32,280
Speaker 1: Is mac Jones really worth that price? Tech? No way.

1203
01:01:32,320 --> 01:01:34,960
Speaker 1: I mean, listen, two months ago we were talking about

1204
01:01:35,000 --> 01:01:40,160
Speaker 1: mac Jones is maybe landing at the Patriots n okay,

1205
01:01:40,360 --> 01:01:44,120
Speaker 1: And now it's like he's not gonna be there at twelve.

1206
01:01:44,240 --> 01:01:45,760
Speaker 1: He's not gonna be there at six. We've got to

1207
01:01:45,760 --> 01:01:49,000
Speaker 1: get him at three? Are you kidding me? Now here's

1208
01:01:49,040 --> 01:01:52,040
Speaker 1: the only argument for mac Jones. Let me just quickly

1209
01:01:52,040 --> 01:01:57,880
Speaker 1: look at his age. Mac Jones has sat in Alabama

1210
01:01:58,160 --> 01:02:02,400
Speaker 1: for many years because remember he's sat behind who is

1211
01:02:02,400 --> 01:02:05,720
Speaker 1: it at, Jalen Hurts, right, and then Jalen Hurts, and

1212
01:02:05,720 --> 01:02:10,000
Speaker 1: then Tua and then now mac Jones finally gets to start.

1213
01:02:10,040 --> 01:02:14,680
Speaker 1: Mac Jones he'll be twenty three years old on Week one,

1214
01:02:14,800 --> 01:02:17,400
Speaker 1: So he turns twenty three February fifths, So he's got

1215
01:02:17,480 --> 01:02:20,680
Speaker 1: over I don't know about over a year, but he's

1216
01:02:20,680 --> 01:02:23,640
Speaker 1: got at least two years on Trey Lance, and I

1217
01:02:23,680 --> 01:02:28,480
Speaker 1: think he has one year on Justin Fields. But Fields

1218
01:02:28,480 --> 01:02:32,160
Speaker 1: has twenty two college starts under his bill, and he

1219
01:02:32,280 --> 01:02:35,640
Speaker 1: played almost every game in his first year at Georgia,

1220
01:02:35,920 --> 01:02:39,080
Speaker 1: so Fields has way more experience than mac Jones. But

1221
01:02:39,120 --> 01:02:43,280
Speaker 1: you could say, Mac Jones was in the quarterback room

1222
01:02:43,320 --> 01:02:48,120
Speaker 1: with um, all these all these superstars, well the comparison.

1223
01:02:48,160 --> 01:02:50,600
Speaker 1: I guess Damn, I'm starting to talk to myself in

1224
01:02:50,640 --> 01:02:52,360
Speaker 1: a Mac Jones. Listen what I'm about to say, Gavin.

1225
01:02:52,400 --> 01:02:57,880
Speaker 1: It just hit me. Joe Burrow sat in the quarterback

1226
01:02:57,960 --> 01:03:01,480
Speaker 1: room at Ohio State. Remember the read behind Dwayne Haskins

1227
01:03:01,480 --> 01:03:07,920
Speaker 1: and whoever else transfers starts for a year at l

1228
01:03:08,000 --> 01:03:12,120
Speaker 1: s U and then playing with superstars, jump to light

1229
01:03:12,200 --> 01:03:18,440
Speaker 1: Speed Joe Burrow number one pick Mac Jones, sits, sits

1230
01:03:19,200 --> 01:03:23,880
Speaker 1: starts with Davonte Smith, Jalen Waddle, Naja, Harris Boom jumped

1231
01:03:23,880 --> 01:03:29,080
Speaker 1: to Lightspeed Superstar. Damn, I can't, I can't, I can't,

1232
01:03:29,120 --> 01:03:31,840
Speaker 1: I can't. Come on. No, Davonte Smith came out and

1233
01:03:31,880 --> 01:03:34,880
Speaker 1: said he would take mac Jones over to that came out.

1234
01:03:35,360 --> 01:03:38,960
Speaker 1: That's right, Um, there there are a lot of people

1235
01:03:39,120 --> 01:03:42,320
Speaker 1: out there selling the mac Jones hype. I just I

1236
01:03:42,440 --> 01:03:45,480
Speaker 1: worry when a guy has that much talent around him

1237
01:03:45,520 --> 01:03:48,240
Speaker 1: and he's never really had to face adversity. I mean,

1238
01:03:48,280 --> 01:03:50,760
Speaker 1: he was always in a clean pocket. So the problem

1239
01:03:50,800 --> 01:03:54,040
Speaker 1: is we said this about Joe Burrow, and I'm with you.

1240
01:03:54,120 --> 01:03:59,360
Speaker 1: I I never thought anything of Mac Jones and then

1241
01:03:59,360 --> 01:04:01,560
Speaker 1: he was killing all right. I'm gonna have to let

1242
01:04:01,560 --> 01:04:04,360
Speaker 1: this marinate. Damn it. This is this is concerning. You're

1243
01:04:04,400 --> 01:04:11,400
Speaker 1: hearing real time authenticity as I has Jones eye test

1244
01:04:11,480 --> 01:04:13,760
Speaker 1: when you watch him. Have you ever looked at him?

1245
01:04:13,800 --> 01:04:16,040
Speaker 1: But that's the thing. He had a good playoff game.

1246
01:04:16,160 --> 01:04:18,120
Speaker 1: The one against was it Notre Dame. For the second

1247
01:04:18,120 --> 01:04:20,439
Speaker 1: game it was I think it was the Notre Dame game.

1248
01:04:20,480 --> 01:04:24,160
Speaker 1: Notre game, Notre Dame. They crushed right, but for whatever reason,

1249
01:04:24,640 --> 01:04:27,640
Speaker 1: he was really efficient and Notre Dame att I think

1250
01:04:28,320 --> 01:04:31,760
Speaker 1: at least one first round draft pick at outside linebacker.

1251
01:04:32,400 --> 01:04:33,840
Speaker 1: I'm gonna need to go back and watch some more

1252
01:04:33,880 --> 01:04:36,080
Speaker 1: mac Ji. Damn it. This is troubling, all right, coming

1253
01:04:36,160 --> 01:04:39,320
Speaker 1: up next probably more NFL. Yeah, I think we're gonna

1254
01:04:39,360 --> 01:04:42,000
Speaker 1: stick with this. In Iowa, Sam, who watches a lot

01:05:15,920 --> 01:05:19,040
Speaker 1: something on auto insurance. So I'm looking to Patrick Mahomes

1265
01:05:19,040 --> 01:05:28,720
Speaker 1: is now elementary math tells me he was twenty one now,

1266
01:05:29,840 --> 01:05:34,560
Speaker 1: damn he was drafted in April, so he was not

1267
01:05:34,720 --> 01:05:36,800
Speaker 1: yet twenty two. He was twenty one when the Chiefs

1268
01:05:36,840 --> 01:05:40,200
Speaker 1: drafted him, and they sat him for a year. I'm

1269
01:05:40,200 --> 01:05:43,800
Speaker 1: looking at Trey Lance right now. Twenty Fields just turned

1270
01:05:43,800 --> 01:05:48,520
Speaker 1: twenty two this month. I think they could sit to me,

1271
01:05:48,760 --> 01:05:51,960
Speaker 1: I think they could draft of quarterbacks and have him

1272
01:05:52,000 --> 01:05:55,080
Speaker 1: sit while Jimmy g Because the Shanahan system is difficult,

1273
01:05:55,160 --> 01:05:57,800
Speaker 1: is it not? Yeah, it's very complex. That's actually been

1274
01:05:57,840 --> 01:06:00,200
Speaker 1: one of the knocks on Fields, is can he hick

1275
01:06:00,320 --> 01:06:03,520
Speaker 1: up this difficult system? Well, I mean, I don't know

1276
01:06:03,560 --> 01:06:07,160
Speaker 1: how the Shanahan system compares to the Red system, but

1277
01:06:09,200 --> 01:06:11,360
Speaker 1: I think Mahomes makes a lot of calls with the

1278
01:06:11,400 --> 01:06:15,920
Speaker 1: line of scrimmage, has to read the defensivenables. I wouldn't

1279
01:06:15,960 --> 01:06:18,919
Speaker 1: compare guys to Patrick Mahomes. He's probably gonna go down

1280
01:06:18,920 --> 01:06:23,200
Speaker 1: as the greatest quarterback we've ever seen, right, But yeah,

1281
01:06:23,400 --> 01:06:25,080
Speaker 1: I think that the question would be if you look

1282
01:06:25,120 --> 01:06:28,919
Speaker 1: back at him in the Big twelve, it was just like, hey,

1283
01:06:29,200 --> 01:06:30,920
Speaker 1: get up the line of scrimmage and let's chuck it

1284
01:06:30,960 --> 01:06:33,560
Speaker 1: and duck it. And that's why there was a steep

1285
01:06:33,600 --> 01:06:36,200
Speaker 1: learning curve. If you remember r G three came out

1286
01:06:36,200 --> 01:06:38,560
Speaker 1: as a rookie, there was a knock on him about that.

1287
01:06:39,200 --> 01:06:41,280
Speaker 1: His difference was he would just tuck and run, and

1288
01:06:41,320 --> 01:06:43,760
Speaker 1: he had some tremendous runs as a rookie. I remember

1289
01:06:43,800 --> 01:06:47,400
Speaker 1: famously there's one that I was like, not really on

1290
01:06:47,480 --> 01:06:50,680
Speaker 1: board the RG three hype train, and he threw a

1291
01:06:50,680 --> 01:06:53,000
Speaker 1: couple of beautiful bombs. They had some good receivers, but

1292
01:06:53,160 --> 01:06:55,880
Speaker 1: he had a scramble against Minnesota I think it was,

1293
01:06:56,280 --> 01:06:58,080
Speaker 1: and he was like seventy five yards for the game

1294
01:06:58,080 --> 01:07:01,080
Speaker 1: winning touchdown, and I was like, my gosh, this guy's

1295
01:07:01,120 --> 01:07:05,040
Speaker 1: like not quite Mike Vick, but he's pretty awesome. And

1296
01:07:05,720 --> 01:07:09,200
Speaker 1: what happens. R G three never could read defenses and

1297
01:07:09,640 --> 01:07:12,160
Speaker 1: got injured, and that was a rap. I mean, he

1298
01:07:12,200 --> 01:07:16,760
Speaker 1: was athletic and he had a big arm like Mahomes has,

1299
01:07:16,800 --> 01:07:20,880
Speaker 1: like the total package, I mean, justin fields looks the part.

1300
01:07:20,960 --> 01:07:24,080
Speaker 1: Does he not? Yeah, yeah, you can't watch. He had

1301
01:07:24,120 --> 01:07:28,320
Speaker 1: a four week unreal And that's the thing is I

1302
01:07:28,360 --> 01:07:31,200
Speaker 1: think Kyle see I think he looked at McVeigh a

1303
01:07:31,200 --> 01:07:34,720
Speaker 1: lot when when McVeigh pulled the plug on GoF because

1304
01:07:35,640 --> 01:07:37,880
Speaker 1: he realized there was a ceiling there. They weren't probably

1305
01:07:37,880 --> 01:07:39,680
Speaker 1: going to get back to another super Bowl with GoF,

1306
01:07:40,040 --> 01:07:41,520
Speaker 1: and if they were, they weren't going to win it.

1307
01:07:42,000 --> 01:07:44,520
Speaker 1: Um and Kyle went, well, I want to get my guy.

1308
01:07:44,680 --> 01:07:47,240
Speaker 1: Everyone else is doing it that his own look at

1309
01:07:47,240 --> 01:07:50,640
Speaker 1: his own division, the NFC West. The Arizona Cardinals did

1310
01:07:50,640 --> 01:07:53,760
Speaker 1: the same thing getting rid of Josh Rosen. So Kyle

1311
01:07:54,440 --> 01:07:57,840
Speaker 1: wants aing, athletic quarterback. He hasn't had that yet, especially

1312
01:07:57,840 --> 01:08:01,400
Speaker 1: as a head coach. He hasn't had that with with Jimmy. Jimmy,

1313
01:08:01,520 --> 01:08:03,480
Speaker 1: you know, we we talked about it earlier. Was he

1314
01:08:03,560 --> 01:08:05,920
Speaker 1: really Kyle's guy? I don't think so. I mean, I

1315
01:08:05,920 --> 01:08:09,040
Speaker 1: think he was the best available, best available. So now

1316
01:08:09,080 --> 01:08:11,880
Speaker 1: he gets his pick of the litter. They they're going

1317
01:08:12,000 --> 01:08:16,040
Speaker 1: all in. This is a massive trade, three first round picks.

1318
01:08:16,880 --> 01:08:19,280
Speaker 1: I just don't see that being mac Jones and I

1319
01:08:19,479 --> 01:08:23,040
Speaker 1: personally don't see there being any scenario where Jimmy g

1320
01:08:23,240 --> 01:08:26,800
Speaker 1: is there starting quarterback next year. No, alright, so Iowa, Sam,

1321
01:08:26,840 --> 01:08:31,120
Speaker 1: you watched a lot of fields. I'm assuming Matt Jones,

1322
01:08:31,160 --> 01:08:33,040
Speaker 1: you know, was on TV every weekend because there was

1323
01:08:33,080 --> 01:08:37,320
Speaker 1: nobody good but Alabama? Is Matt Jones worth a top

1324
01:08:37,360 --> 01:08:41,360
Speaker 1: ten pick? I agree with Gavin in the sense that

1325
01:08:41,600 --> 01:08:43,400
Speaker 1: he had a lot of help around him on the field,

1326
01:08:43,479 --> 01:08:47,240
Speaker 1: and he was coached by what a handful of former

1327
01:08:47,320 --> 01:08:51,640
Speaker 1: college football coaches. I mean, he's really probably maximized his

1328
01:08:51,680 --> 01:08:54,960
Speaker 1: potential to college level. So I I really don't know.

1329
01:08:55,080 --> 01:08:58,439
Speaker 1: I would say I would probably lean towards no, because

1330
01:08:58,880 --> 01:09:02,719
Speaker 1: he has had an amazing he's had an amazing personnel

1331
01:09:02,760 --> 01:09:04,960
Speaker 1: around him, and that you just don't know. In the NFL,

1332
01:09:05,000 --> 01:09:06,800
Speaker 1: there's just a lot more there's just a lot more

1333
01:09:06,840 --> 01:09:10,720
Speaker 1: parody and and people are just everyone's good at their job.

1334
01:09:10,840 --> 01:09:12,840
Speaker 1: So then it's like it maybe it just cancels out

1335
01:09:12,840 --> 01:09:17,360
Speaker 1: those advantages. Okay, could you sit Mac Jones for a

1336
01:09:17,479 --> 01:09:22,840
Speaker 1: year the way I mean Jimmy Gisa for how many years?

1337
01:09:22,920 --> 01:09:26,720
Speaker 1: Gavin like two three? But but it wasn't as immediate

1338
01:09:26,920 --> 01:09:28,800
Speaker 1: then it was the second round pick two. Yeah, it's

1339
01:09:28,800 --> 01:09:32,000
Speaker 1: a little different. Yeah, I think that the formula nowadays.

1340
01:09:32,080 --> 01:09:36,320
Speaker 1: I mean, teams do not want to wait on their

1341
01:09:36,400 --> 01:09:39,679
Speaker 1: quarterback unless you're Anthony Lynn and you can't see how

1342
01:09:39,760 --> 01:09:42,600
Speaker 1: talented Herbert is. All right, hold on, hold on, I

1343
01:09:42,680 --> 01:09:44,800
Speaker 1: just thought of this. First of all, I don't think

1344
01:09:44,880 --> 01:09:47,639
Speaker 1: McVeigh got golf right. I think it was Fisher who

1345
01:09:47,640 --> 01:09:53,720
Speaker 1: got golf right. Remember Jared Goff's first year, another guy

1346
01:09:54,000 --> 01:09:56,559
Speaker 1: didn't take any snaps under center. I think he started

1347
01:09:56,600 --> 01:09:59,680
Speaker 1: oh and seven like historically bad, and people were like

1348
01:09:59,720 --> 01:10:03,040
Speaker 1: this guy train wreck. Eli Manning came into the league

1349
01:10:03,040 --> 01:10:04,920
Speaker 1: and I think they tried to start him and they

1350
01:10:04,920 --> 01:10:06,720
Speaker 1: were like, no, no, no, no, he's not good enough.

1351
01:10:07,120 --> 01:10:09,120
Speaker 1: Let's do it. Was like Kurt Warner in New York,

1352
01:10:09,160 --> 01:10:12,400
Speaker 1: like near the end of Kurt Warner. So the the

1353
01:10:12,560 --> 01:10:16,120
Speaker 1: idea of getting this quarterback high and sitting him for

1354
01:10:16,120 --> 01:10:19,240
Speaker 1: a little is not that crazy, which didn't used to be.

1355
01:10:19,360 --> 01:10:22,880
Speaker 1: I'm saying it's a very recent trend that guys really

1356
01:10:22,920 --> 01:10:25,280
Speaker 1: don't get held back for a year because of the

1357
01:10:25,439 --> 01:10:30,120
Speaker 1: advantage you have on that. The greatest trade that any

1358
01:10:30,120 --> 01:10:33,080
Speaker 1: of these rookie quarterbacks, including Trevor Lawrence, will have next

1359
01:10:33,160 --> 01:10:36,120
Speaker 1: year is their rookie contract. It is the greatest part

1360
01:10:36,160 --> 01:10:39,400
Speaker 1: of them. It's what's so great about Justin Herbert and

1361
01:10:39,680 --> 01:10:43,200
Speaker 1: I don't see the Niners and twenty seven million that

1362
01:10:43,320 --> 01:10:45,920
Speaker 1: Jimmy is oh six this year. That's not a ton

1363
01:10:45,960 --> 01:10:48,160
Speaker 1: of money compared to these other quarterbacks, but it's still

1364
01:10:48,200 --> 01:10:50,519
Speaker 1: a lot more than so if they can find a

1365
01:10:50,560 --> 01:10:55,960
Speaker 1: way to trade him. Okay, here's another. So the Bears

1366
01:10:56,080 --> 01:11:02,040
Speaker 1: of the Bears, they traded up for Trabiski. Everybody mocked him.

1367
01:11:02,080 --> 01:11:04,960
Speaker 1: I'm looking at the Strobinsky stats. He didn't start every game.

1368
01:11:05,360 --> 01:11:08,400
Speaker 1: I think Mike Glennon started the season as their quarterback.

1369
01:11:09,320 --> 01:11:12,240
Speaker 1: And then remember they got Glennon in free agency, they

1370
01:11:12,280 --> 01:11:15,560
Speaker 1: started him, he was terrible, and then Trabinsky started the

1371
01:11:15,560 --> 01:11:18,479
Speaker 1: rest of the way. The second season, Trabinsky made the

1372
01:11:18,479 --> 01:11:20,160
Speaker 1: playoffs with the Bears. Now, a lot of that was

1373
01:11:20,200 --> 01:11:26,519
Speaker 1: the defense Khalil Mack, but there is some precedent. Are

1374
01:11:26,520 --> 01:11:29,600
Speaker 1: we sure that Glennon started I'm not. I need I

1375
01:11:29,600 --> 01:11:32,840
Speaker 1: need to check, but I'll just check the box score

1376
01:11:32,880 --> 01:11:38,400
Speaker 1: from their first game against the Falcons and says yes,

1377
01:11:38,479 --> 01:11:41,040
Speaker 1: Mike Glennon started the opener and then they went one

1378
01:11:41,040 --> 01:11:44,639
Speaker 1: and three and then Trabisky comes in. So Goff did

1379
01:11:44,680 --> 01:11:47,680
Speaker 1: not start as a rookie. Traubinsky didn't start. This is

1380
01:11:47,720 --> 01:11:52,519
Speaker 1: as recently Mahomes didn't start. But in the last couple

1381
01:11:52,520 --> 01:11:55,200
Speaker 1: of years, every rookie started, Like Trevor Lawrence, he's gonna start,

1382
01:11:55,320 --> 01:11:57,880
Speaker 1: I mean, was he three year starter at Clemson? Come on,

1383
01:11:58,560 --> 01:12:00,840
Speaker 1: but you're saying that, Jimmy, you will lead them to

1384
01:12:00,840 --> 01:12:03,880
Speaker 1: the playoffs. So he's gonna sit the whole season. Fields

1385
01:12:03,920 --> 01:12:07,080
Speaker 1: are lands, right, that's what your assumption is. I mean,

1386
01:12:07,080 --> 01:12:09,280
Speaker 1: that's the thing that's a heavy price tag to pay.

1387
01:12:09,680 --> 01:12:12,080
Speaker 1: You're putting yourself in a worst draft position for the

1388
01:12:12,120 --> 01:12:16,200
Speaker 1: next year to build around a rookie quarterback. Fox Sports

1395
01:12:40,600 --> 01:12:43,000
Speaker 1: this is good. This is good. Somebody listening to the show.

1396
01:12:43,520 --> 01:12:45,280
Speaker 1: I gotta go back on Twitter and get his name.

1397
01:12:45,640 --> 01:12:49,040
Speaker 1: Just remind me of another quarterback who sat who was

1398
01:12:49,040 --> 01:12:52,320
Speaker 1: a drafted in the top six and who sat down

1399
01:12:52,320 --> 01:12:56,320
Speaker 1: at the very beginning. Who's this guy? Where's his name?

1400
01:12:56,720 --> 01:12:59,880
Speaker 1: A Sumuka? Whatever? Sorry, dude, put your real name on

1401
01:12:59,920 --> 01:13:07,600
Speaker 1: the damnit um Justin Herbert of Gavin's Chargers drafted? Was

1402
01:13:07,640 --> 01:13:10,559
Speaker 1: he fifth or sixth? He was the sixth pick after

1403
01:13:10,640 --> 01:13:13,120
Speaker 1: ta And this is a guy who started the last

1404
01:13:13,160 --> 01:13:15,000
Speaker 1: two years. And according to the stats, and again you

1405
01:13:15,080 --> 01:13:16,639
Speaker 1: gotta go through all the box scores to find out,

1406
01:13:17,520 --> 01:13:20,840
Speaker 1: Herbert looks like he started maybe eight games his first

1407
01:13:20,880 --> 01:13:22,599
Speaker 1: two years. So we're talking about a guy who started

1408
01:13:22,640 --> 01:13:26,160
Speaker 1: at least over thirty games as a college guy. And

1409
01:13:26,280 --> 01:13:29,280
Speaker 1: he was put at the backup to Tyrod Taylor. Okay,

1410
01:13:29,360 --> 01:13:31,680
Speaker 1: and then Tyrod Taylor has that issue with the uh

1411
01:13:32,040 --> 01:13:35,400
Speaker 1: what the trainer punctured as long or some something, and

1412
01:13:35,479 --> 01:13:38,000
Speaker 1: Justin Herbert starts and looks great. So now we're building

1413
01:13:38,000 --> 01:13:41,280
Speaker 1: a case, folks, because so many people are like, Jimmy

1414
01:13:41,360 --> 01:13:45,639
Speaker 1: ged come on, you're crazy, he's getting traded. Trabisky drafted

1415
01:13:45,760 --> 01:13:49,599
Speaker 1: did not start. Mahomes drafted, did not start. Golf drafted

1416
01:13:49,600 --> 01:13:52,439
Speaker 1: did not start, Herbert drafted did not start. Who else

1417
01:13:52,479 --> 01:13:54,479
Speaker 1: we got? Who are we missing? In the last four years?

1418
01:13:54,920 --> 01:13:58,200
Speaker 1: Top ten pick quarterback drafted did not start and they

1419
01:13:58,280 --> 01:14:02,240
Speaker 1: sat him I do think too well. Was the injury

1420
01:14:02,320 --> 01:14:04,479
Speaker 1: kind of right? Yeah, But my thought is that I

1421
01:14:04,600 --> 01:14:08,000
Speaker 1: just don't think Jimmy will start. I think someone else

1422
01:14:08,080 --> 01:14:11,439
Speaker 1: will start. I think most teams don't throw a rookie

1423
01:14:11,479 --> 01:14:13,880
Speaker 1: out there in the first game of this Joe Burrow,

1424
01:14:14,160 --> 01:14:16,479
Speaker 1: when you're the number one pick, there's a little something

1425
01:14:16,600 --> 01:14:20,320
Speaker 1: different because it's so much equity. But um, with Herbert,

1426
01:14:20,360 --> 01:14:22,160
Speaker 1: we all thought the middle of the season, he okay,

1427
01:14:22,200 --> 01:14:25,800
Speaker 1: go ahead, Baker Mayfield. He was a backup to Tyrod Taylor.

1428
01:14:25,880 --> 01:14:29,720
Speaker 1: Remember fortunate. No, I just I would see it more

1429
01:14:29,760 --> 01:14:34,280
Speaker 1: likely that the Niners tried to trade and get somebody

1430
01:14:34,520 --> 01:14:38,280
Speaker 1: in return that could start or do something there. I

1431
01:14:38,320 --> 01:14:41,320
Speaker 1: just don't see them rolling out of twenty six million

1432
01:14:41,320 --> 01:14:43,800
Speaker 1: dollar quarterback and keeping him, because then you have a

1433
01:14:43,880 --> 01:14:47,320
Speaker 1: backup that costs that much. Okay, So now that that's

1434
01:14:47,360 --> 01:14:49,160
Speaker 1: the part of this that makes it difficult a lot.

1435
01:14:49,240 --> 01:14:52,240
Speaker 1: I haven't gone through who the starter was, Tyrod Taylor cheap,

1436
01:14:53,120 --> 01:14:56,800
Speaker 1: Ryan Fitzpatrick cheap. I don't even remember who was starting

1437
01:14:56,800 --> 01:14:58,160
Speaker 1: in front of golf with the Rams, but he was

1438
01:14:58,200 --> 01:15:00,800
Speaker 1: obviously cheap and terrible. Now Alex Smith was getting paid.

1439
01:15:01,080 --> 01:15:03,759
Speaker 1: Trabisky was the starter. Mike Glennon was like a fifteen

1440
01:15:03,760 --> 01:15:06,080
Speaker 1: million a year guy. Everybody laughed at that deal. So

1441
01:15:07,360 --> 01:15:11,519
Speaker 1: bridge quarterback, then you go to the guy you drafted

1442
01:15:13,240 --> 01:15:15,519
Speaker 1: the other quarterback. I don't know if he was starting.

1443
01:15:15,640 --> 01:15:20,320
Speaker 1: Oh okay, okay. Uh so it's like bridge quarterback, who's okay,

1444
01:15:20,360 --> 01:15:23,200
Speaker 1: but a placeholder. Then when your rookie's ready, you put

1445
01:15:23,280 --> 01:15:28,559
Speaker 1: him in or injury happens. Garoppolo doesn't fit that because

1446
01:15:28,640 --> 01:15:32,479
Speaker 1: if you pitched him to Denver or Carolina, who don't

1447
01:15:32,520 --> 01:15:37,320
Speaker 1: have quarterbacks, they would probably jump at Jimmy g I

1448
01:15:37,360 --> 01:15:39,479
Speaker 1: don't know if could you get a first for him? No?

1449
01:15:39,680 --> 01:15:42,680
Speaker 1: I don't think so. Okay, who would you rather have?

1450
01:15:42,720 --> 01:15:45,200
Speaker 1: Because this is these are the two guys left. If

1451
01:15:45,200 --> 01:15:47,479
Speaker 1: it's down to Carolina and Denver, I don't have another team.

1452
01:15:48,000 --> 01:15:51,200
Speaker 1: Off the top of my head. Sam Donald, who Cowherd

1453
01:15:51,280 --> 01:15:53,360
Speaker 1: is now going on social media pushing Sam Donald to

1454
01:15:53,400 --> 01:15:56,280
Speaker 1: the Panthers. Cow heard looking for the best landing spout

1455
01:15:56,320 --> 01:16:01,000
Speaker 1: for his guy Donald. I think he's Sam's agent. Uh Um,

1456
01:16:01,040 --> 01:16:05,400
Speaker 1: it's Sam Donald or Jimmy Garoppolo. And if I'm the

1457
01:16:05,520 --> 01:16:08,559
Speaker 1: Jets drafting Zack Wilson second. He has been a multi

1458
01:16:08,640 --> 01:16:11,639
Speaker 1: year starter at b Y U, I'm starting Zack Wilson

1459
01:16:11,640 --> 01:16:16,280
Speaker 1: from day one if those two were your other So

1460
01:16:16,360 --> 01:16:18,720
Speaker 1: you're saying if the Jets try to trade, well, the

1461
01:16:18,720 --> 01:16:22,800
Speaker 1: other problem is if the Jets keep Donald and start him,

1462
01:16:22,840 --> 01:16:25,320
Speaker 1: this would be a disaster. They have improved the team

1463
01:16:25,360 --> 01:16:28,720
Speaker 1: significantly at wide receiver. They got a good backup tight end,

1464
01:16:28,880 --> 01:16:31,240
Speaker 1: The offensive line has some continuity. The defense is going

1465
01:16:31,280 --> 01:16:33,160
Speaker 1: to be really good. They got two guys on the line,

1466
01:16:33,600 --> 01:16:36,479
Speaker 1: Lawson and Rankins to join Quinnon Williams. Jets are not

1467
01:16:36,479 --> 01:16:39,639
Speaker 1: going to be a pushover like last year. What happens

1468
01:16:39,680 --> 01:16:42,439
Speaker 1: if they start three and oh with Sam Donald and

1469
01:16:42,479 --> 01:16:44,880
Speaker 1: then Zack Wilson's your backup, that's a disaster. So you

1470
01:16:44,920 --> 01:16:49,240
Speaker 1: can't if you're the Jets start Donald. Does it get

1471
01:16:49,280 --> 01:16:51,960
Speaker 1: tricky if Jimmy Garoppolo starts and you start three and

1472
01:16:52,000 --> 01:16:55,760
Speaker 1: oh and you drafted what's his face? I mean, I

1473
01:16:55,760 --> 01:16:58,000
Speaker 1: don't know. There's a lot of pressure on these quarterbacks,

1474
01:16:58,000 --> 01:17:01,360
Speaker 1: so that whoever the Niners select, there's gonna be because

1475
01:17:01,360 --> 01:17:03,559
Speaker 1: they're already made team. Right, you go to the Super

1476
01:17:03,560 --> 01:17:05,840
Speaker 1: Bowl two years ago, they just traded their future to

1477
01:17:05,880 --> 01:17:08,120
Speaker 1: go get him. All right, coming up our number three,

1478
01:17:08,120 --> 01:17:09,760
Speaker 1: we're gonna do some more gambling at the top of

1479
01:17:09,800 --> 01:17:13,800

1493
01:18:01,800 --> 01:18:04,720
Speaker 1: deadline infringed on some college hoops, and of course the

1494
01:18:04,800 --> 01:18:09,240
Speaker 1: NFL trade. The trades, sorry in the top ten have

1495
01:18:09,320 --> 01:18:11,000
Speaker 1: been massive. But I do want to go back to

1496
01:18:11,320 --> 01:18:14,519
Speaker 1: college hoops. I love the tournament. Um the Sweet six

1497
01:18:14,600 --> 01:18:17,240
Speaker 1: team changes this year make it a little bit strange.

1498
01:18:17,640 --> 01:18:20,559
Speaker 1: I want to bring in Patrick Everson from Covers dot Com.

1499
01:18:20,600 --> 01:18:23,160
Speaker 1: He is in Vegas on the ground. Good to talk

1500
01:18:23,200 --> 01:18:26,719
Speaker 1: about the tournament. Patrick, good morning, how are you? Good morning, Jason,

1501
01:18:26,760 --> 01:18:28,479
Speaker 1: how are you. I appreciate you having me on. Yeah,

1502
01:18:28,520 --> 01:18:30,519
Speaker 1: I'm doing all right. Thanks. You know. The first thing

1503
01:18:30,560 --> 01:18:34,320
Speaker 1: I noticed about this schedule. Usually Sweet sixteen is Thursday

1504
01:18:34,400 --> 01:18:36,960
Speaker 1: night Friday night, and you get two games at once.

1505
01:18:37,840 --> 01:18:41,880
Speaker 1: The schedule now was just like island game, Island game.

1506
01:18:41,960 --> 01:18:44,320
Speaker 1: It's like, what the stinks? But I mean, or is

1507
01:18:44,360 --> 01:18:47,760
Speaker 1: it just me like thinking it stinks? Well, I think

1508
01:18:47,800 --> 01:18:50,280
Speaker 1: it kind of depends. I mean, we're all definitely used

1509
01:18:50,280 --> 01:18:53,639
Speaker 1: to that, you know, basically two games simultaneously, two games

1510
01:18:53,640 --> 01:18:57,120
Speaker 1: more simultaneously. It's when I looked at it was definitely

1511
01:18:57,120 --> 01:18:58,360
Speaker 1: a little weird for me as I was trying to

1512
01:18:58,400 --> 01:19:01,040
Speaker 1: map out my day, I'm like, good is these games

1513
01:19:01,040 --> 01:19:04,760
Speaker 1: can all finish before the next one starts. So it's

1514
01:19:04,800 --> 01:19:07,000
Speaker 1: it's definitely a lot different. I don't know that I

1515
01:19:07,120 --> 01:19:10,960
Speaker 1: necessarily like it, but I will say this, if the games,

1516
01:19:11,040 --> 01:19:12,479
Speaker 1: you know, as long as none of these games go

1517
01:19:12,520 --> 01:19:16,360
Speaker 1: to overtime, there's going to be opportunities between games for

1518
01:19:16,479 --> 01:19:19,040
Speaker 1: people to get best down where they normally could not get. Yeah,

1519
01:19:19,880 --> 01:19:24,080
Speaker 1: I hadn't thought of that gambling angle. Uh, the Island game. Yeah,

1520
01:19:24,200 --> 01:19:28,320
Speaker 1: now the opposite is also true. If Oregon State falls

1521
01:19:28,320 --> 01:19:30,960
Speaker 1: behind fifteen in the first half. I don't think a

1522
01:19:30,960 --> 01:19:33,320
Speaker 1: lot of people around the nation are gonna sit inside

1523
01:19:33,400 --> 01:19:36,519
Speaker 1: on a Saturday afternoon and try to watch the Beavers

1524
01:19:36,560 --> 01:19:39,080
Speaker 1: come back against the Ramblers, you know, like that's a

1525
01:19:39,080 --> 01:19:43,240
Speaker 1: tough sell. Baylor Villanova is a better game. Arkansas Oral

1526
01:19:43,360 --> 01:19:47,200
Speaker 1: Roberts Saturday night is I mean, that's a graveyard. Nobody's

1527
01:19:47,200 --> 01:19:51,280
Speaker 1: watching that game. No, it's it's it's it's definitely. I

1528
01:19:51,720 --> 01:19:53,840
Speaker 1: don't think overall from a like you said, from a

1529
01:19:53,920 --> 01:19:57,559
Speaker 1: viewer perspective, writing perspective, it's it. I don't think it'll

1530
01:19:57,560 --> 01:19:59,960
Speaker 1: have quite the same energy as when it's all basically

1531
01:20:00,479 --> 01:20:02,920
Speaker 1: kind of in prime time on the East Coast leading

1532
01:20:02,960 --> 01:20:05,080
Speaker 1: in the prime time on the West Coast on a

1533
01:20:05,120 --> 01:20:08,920
Speaker 1: Thursday night and a Friday night. But that's why you're here.

1534
01:20:09,000 --> 01:20:12,720
Speaker 1: And the gambling angle, everybody's everybody who is interested in

1535
01:20:12,720 --> 01:20:15,040
Speaker 1: this game will gamble on it. I think brackets are

1536
01:20:15,080 --> 01:20:18,519
Speaker 1: mostly blown to smith reens. You know. I guess Patrick

1537
01:20:18,600 --> 01:20:21,240
Speaker 1: will start here. I know the public can have their

1538
01:20:21,360 --> 01:20:25,759
Speaker 1: say and move some lines in the tournament. That being said,

1539
01:20:26,560 --> 01:20:29,719
Speaker 1: when I have looked around today, some of the public

1540
01:20:29,800 --> 01:20:33,639
Speaker 1: teams here are surprising. It looks to me like all

1541
01:20:33,720 --> 01:20:36,840
Speaker 1: three double digit seeds are getting public money, Oregon State

1542
01:20:36,960 --> 01:20:40,320
Speaker 1: or robertson Syracuse. Public dogs scare me in the NFL,

1543
01:20:40,680 --> 01:20:43,320
Speaker 1: they definitely scare me here. What are you seeing? Patrick?

1544
01:20:43,640 --> 01:20:46,599
Speaker 1: That's that you're What you're seeing is exactly correct. I've

1545
01:20:46,720 --> 01:20:50,240
Speaker 1: I've gone back and forth with three different sports books today,

1546
01:20:50,479 --> 01:20:53,799
Speaker 1: and at all three of them, it's Oregon State getting

1547
01:20:53,800 --> 01:20:57,240
Speaker 1: the bulk of tickets and money. It is Syracuse getting

1548
01:20:57,240 --> 01:20:59,400
Speaker 1: the bulk of tickets and money, and it is definitely

1549
01:21:00,000 --> 01:21:02,600
Speaker 1: Old Roberts getting the bulk of tickets and money. I

1550
01:21:02,600 --> 01:21:05,920
Speaker 1: think Earl Roberts is probably uh, slightly more than the

1551
01:21:05,920 --> 01:21:09,439
Speaker 1: other two. But yeah, it's definitely interesting. I was talking

1552
01:21:09,439 --> 01:21:12,240
Speaker 1: about this with Scott Shelton late last night at bet

1553
01:21:12,360 --> 01:21:16,640
Speaker 1: MGM and uh and he said, or you know, Oral

1554
01:21:16,760 --> 01:21:20,600
Speaker 1: Roberts is definitely a public dog, big time against Arkansas,

1555
01:21:20,640 --> 01:21:22,680
Speaker 1: but that line has gone the other way. It's gone

1556
01:21:22,680 --> 01:21:24,640
Speaker 1: from Arkansas ten and a half out to eleven and

1557
01:21:24,680 --> 01:21:27,600
Speaker 1: a half, which is always interesting when the when the

1558
01:21:27,680 --> 01:21:30,320
Speaker 1: when the numbers move in opposite the money and tickets

1559
01:21:31,240 --> 01:21:35,160
Speaker 1: and he'd be indicated definitely. The Syracuse was a public

1560
01:21:35,280 --> 01:21:37,840
Speaker 1: was a was a public dogs and another math. He

1561
01:21:37,880 --> 01:21:40,600
Speaker 1: described it as another math of public dog. Today on

1562
01:21:41,240 --> 01:21:45,479
Speaker 1: on Syracuse against Houston with tickets three to one and

1563
01:21:45,479 --> 01:21:50,240
Speaker 1: and uh uh Syracuse money running. Uh but but they

1564
01:21:50,400 --> 01:21:52,880
Speaker 1: they've got a bit of a skewing at bet MGM.

1565
01:21:52,880 --> 01:21:55,320
Speaker 1: But this isn't the case that most books bet MGM,

1566
01:21:55,560 --> 01:21:58,799
Speaker 1: bet MGM Nevada. I should preface that bet MGM Nevada's

1567
01:21:58,840 --> 01:22:02,759
Speaker 1: got a large vet Houston, like at thousand on Houston

1568
01:22:02,800 --> 01:22:05,640
Speaker 1: minor six and that's totally skewing the money. But the

1569
01:22:05,640 --> 01:22:07,880
Speaker 1: tickets are three to one Syracuse and then and then

1570
01:22:07,920 --> 01:22:11,120
Speaker 1: on that on that first game organ Oregan State, illinoiss

1571
01:22:11,800 --> 01:22:15,679
Speaker 1: uh uh definitely the ticket account is running in favor

1572
01:22:15,720 --> 01:22:18,040
Speaker 1: of organ State. It's crazy. So now to the casual

1573
01:22:18,040 --> 01:22:19,960
Speaker 1: gamble are out there, you know, we're on and I

1574
01:22:20,000 --> 01:22:23,559
Speaker 1: think all fifty states on Saturday mornings. You know, they

1575
01:22:23,600 --> 01:22:25,880
Speaker 1: might not know what this means a public dog. Can

1576
01:22:25,920 --> 01:22:29,280
Speaker 1: you kind of break that down real quick for them? Sure? Absolutely,

1577
01:22:29,680 --> 01:22:35,479
Speaker 1: So the overwhelming majority of betters are like me, and

1578
01:22:36,360 --> 01:22:38,479
Speaker 1: I'll venture to say probably a little bit like you.

1579
01:22:38,560 --> 01:22:40,960
Speaker 1: I mean, sure, we we we follow, we get a

1580
01:22:41,000 --> 01:22:43,439
Speaker 1: lot of information. We follow a lot. I mean, I

1581
01:22:43,520 --> 01:22:46,360
Speaker 1: bet more to half fun. Most people are betting as

1582
01:22:46,400 --> 01:22:49,360
Speaker 1: a form of entertainment. They're not doing these huge, deep

1583
01:22:49,400 --> 01:22:54,080
Speaker 1: analytical dives. They're the average person who enjoys from the

1584
01:22:54,120 --> 01:22:57,200
Speaker 1: palm in their hands, having their mobile app, or getting

1585
01:22:57,240 --> 01:23:00,559
Speaker 1: out to Vegas during March madness and just making their

1586
01:23:00,560 --> 01:23:02,479
Speaker 1: bets and having fun with their buddies and so forth.

1587
01:23:03,120 --> 01:23:07,639
Speaker 1: That's maybe more of all betters or just in the game,

1588
01:23:08,120 --> 01:23:10,320
Speaker 1: skin in the game, having some fun with it. And

1589
01:23:10,360 --> 01:23:13,120
Speaker 1: that's not to say that they're uninformed or anything. I mean,

1590
01:23:13,160 --> 01:23:15,520
Speaker 1: in this day and age, it's so easy to get information.

1591
01:23:15,960 --> 01:23:20,280
Speaker 1: But generally speaking, that is that is the overwhelming majority

1592
01:23:20,280 --> 01:23:22,599
Speaker 1: of people who bet me and you, the average guys

1593
01:23:22,680 --> 01:23:25,280
Speaker 1: just having fun and having skin in the game. So

1594
01:23:25,400 --> 01:23:28,040
Speaker 1: a public dog is when there's over you know, the

1595
01:23:28,080 --> 01:23:32,439
Speaker 1: overwhelming number of people like me and many you know,

1596
01:23:33,000 --> 01:23:35,959
Speaker 1: the huge percentage of others who are taking the underdog

1597
01:23:35,960 --> 01:23:38,720
Speaker 1: in a game, and whether it's against the spread or

1598
01:23:39,160 --> 01:23:42,000
Speaker 1: even on the money line. And so in this case,

1599
01:23:42,080 --> 01:23:45,760
Speaker 1: that's what's happening. And and since the overwhelming number of

1600
01:23:46,120 --> 01:23:50,920
Speaker 1: betters are ostensibly public betters, you know, when they're all

1601
01:23:50,960 --> 01:23:52,880
Speaker 1: on one side. You're gonna be able to tell when

1602
01:23:52,880 --> 01:23:54,800
Speaker 1: they're all on one side, or when the majority is

1603
01:23:54,840 --> 01:23:57,040
Speaker 1: on one side. You know, if there's other if there's

1604
01:23:57,080 --> 01:23:58,800
Speaker 1: a lot of tickets and a lot of money run

1605
01:23:58,800 --> 01:24:02,000
Speaker 1: into one team, which you know, you know, which in

1606
01:24:02,000 --> 01:24:04,280
Speaker 1: a lot of cases insensible a tournament, there have been.

1607
01:24:04,720 --> 01:24:07,120
Speaker 1: That's that's how you can basically identify the public side.

1608
01:24:07,120 --> 01:24:10,920
Speaker 1: And in this case, the public side is underdogs on

1609
01:24:11,000 --> 01:24:14,080
Speaker 1: three of the four games today. And I'm assuming, you know,

1610
01:24:14,160 --> 01:24:16,400
Speaker 1: it's not like the public is going to Vegas midweek

1611
01:24:16,439 --> 01:24:18,439
Speaker 1: to bet this, but there was a lot of people

1612
01:24:18,479 --> 01:24:21,040
Speaker 1: that descended on Vegas last weekend for the opening round.

1613
01:24:21,400 --> 01:24:23,800
Speaker 1: I am just curious. How was the vibe this year

1614
01:24:23,840 --> 01:24:27,599
Speaker 1: compared to years past. Um I did. I heard some

1615
01:24:27,680 --> 01:24:30,160
Speaker 1: friends going out, but it doesn't seem like it was

1616
01:24:30,240 --> 01:24:35,639
Speaker 1: quite the um baccanal that it's uh usually that's such

1617
01:24:35,680 --> 01:24:38,400
Speaker 1: a great way to describe it. Oh my gosh, having

1618
01:24:38,439 --> 01:24:42,240
Speaker 1: been through this so many years out here, and that's correct,

1619
01:24:42,439 --> 01:24:45,200
Speaker 1: that's correct. Look, first off, we had only just just

1620
01:24:45,240 --> 01:24:48,520
Speaker 1: a few days before the tournament. We've only gotten uh

1621
01:24:48,600 --> 01:24:51,760
Speaker 1: the release to go to fifty. You know, the state

1622
01:24:51,800 --> 01:24:54,760
Speaker 1: had only gotten given out the mandate, if you will,

1623
01:24:54,880 --> 01:25:00,400
Speaker 1: or the or the relaxing, if you will, to athletes.

1624
01:25:00,479 --> 01:25:04,920
Speaker 1: So normally, not only would you have of capacity in

1625
01:25:05,040 --> 01:25:09,280
Speaker 1: sports books, but Vegas sports books first week in March Madness,

1626
01:25:09,280 --> 01:25:12,280
Speaker 1: every seat is taken and there's like you can't even

1627
01:25:12,280 --> 01:25:14,719
Speaker 1: move for like within like a two or three square

1628
01:25:14,760 --> 01:25:17,240
Speaker 1: foot radius on the sports book floor. There was just

1629
01:25:17,320 --> 01:25:20,160
Speaker 1: bodies and everybody's standing around where they can't get seats.

1630
01:25:20,200 --> 01:25:23,680
Speaker 1: It's wall to wall standing room only. So it was

1631
01:25:23,760 --> 01:25:27,360
Speaker 1: not like that all the seats were taken at most

1632
01:25:27,360 --> 01:25:30,200
Speaker 1: of these major sports books, but set up in a

1633
01:25:30,200 --> 01:25:32,280
Speaker 1: way where you're only a picket percent capacity. So it

1634
01:25:32,320 --> 01:25:35,120
Speaker 1: certainly does lose a little bit of the vibe that

1635
01:25:35,200 --> 01:25:36,960
Speaker 1: you would, well as a fair amount of the vibe

1636
01:25:36,960 --> 01:25:39,719
Speaker 1: that you would normally have or say a Super Bowl

1637
01:25:40,000 --> 01:25:42,360
Speaker 1: or the first week in of March Madness, etcetera. But

1638
01:25:42,439 --> 01:25:44,400
Speaker 1: I'll tell you what it was. It was better than

1639
01:25:44,439 --> 01:25:47,080
Speaker 1: the alternative twelve months ago. So it was. It was fun.

1640
01:25:47,120 --> 01:25:50,519
Speaker 1: I mean it was It wasn't awesome, but it was

1641
01:25:50,560 --> 01:25:53,320
Speaker 1: pretty good considering what we've all been through, and I

1642
01:25:53,320 --> 01:25:55,920
Speaker 1: think it's a hopefully a precursor of what's to come.

1643
01:25:56,000 --> 01:25:58,599
Speaker 1: All Right, let's take a quick look at Sunday's lineup.

1644
01:25:59,080 --> 01:26:03,200
Speaker 1: I consider it much better. Michigan, Florida State obviously a

1645
01:26:03,200 --> 01:26:06,679
Speaker 1: good game, USC Oregon a great game. I am curious

1646
01:26:06,680 --> 01:26:09,760
Speaker 1: on Creighton Gonzaga. The public. Obviously he's gonna load up

1647
01:26:09,760 --> 01:26:12,040
Speaker 1: on Gonzaga again. They got lucky, and I was on

1648
01:26:12,080 --> 01:26:14,559
Speaker 1: that side against Oklahoma. We're are you on this Creighton

1649
01:26:14,560 --> 01:26:18,559
Speaker 1: Gonzaga game. We had Preston Johnson Sports Cheetah on earlier.

1650
01:26:19,000 --> 01:26:21,760
Speaker 1: He kind of likes Gonzaga here. I don't know. I

1651
01:26:21,800 --> 01:26:25,639
Speaker 1: took the points. Are you seeing anything on this one? Yeah?

1652
01:26:26,000 --> 01:26:28,840
Speaker 1: It's this. I was working over all four of these

1653
01:26:28,880 --> 01:26:33,920
Speaker 1: games yesterday, going through um, going back and forth with

1654
01:26:34,000 --> 01:26:36,439
Speaker 1: Nick fo Da william hill Us all four of the

1655
01:26:36,479 --> 01:26:38,519
Speaker 1: Sunday games, and I'm gonna update them again throughout the

1656
01:26:38,560 --> 01:26:41,960
Speaker 1: day today. At some point here it's it's kind of interesting.

1657
01:26:42,000 --> 01:26:46,160
Speaker 1: This numbers really not moved much at William hill Us.

1658
01:26:46,200 --> 01:26:48,960
Speaker 1: It's a big number for a for for a Sweet

1659
01:26:49,000 --> 01:26:51,520
Speaker 1: sixteen game, But you kind of get it with Gonzaga.

1660
01:26:51,800 --> 01:26:53,840
Speaker 1: I mean, they've been the odds on favorite all season,

1661
01:26:54,800 --> 01:26:58,120
Speaker 1: but uh, what what Nick? What Nick said was he

1662
01:26:58,200 --> 01:27:00,840
Speaker 1: pointed out Gonzaga covered both times last week and he said,

1663
01:27:00,880 --> 01:27:04,479
Speaker 1: we're going to be buried on Gonzaga tom Sunday. That's

1664
01:27:04,479 --> 01:27:06,920
Speaker 1: only what he's expecting, and it's already leaning that way.

1665
01:27:07,439 --> 01:27:09,000
Speaker 1: As you know that the public generally it doesn't come

1666
01:27:09,000 --> 01:27:11,720
Speaker 1: in until late certainly doesn't come in until weekends on

1667
01:27:11,840 --> 01:27:16,559
Speaker 1: weekend games. But that said, Gonzaga was already getting seventy

1668
01:27:16,600 --> 01:27:20,280
Speaker 1: eight percent of money and that this was yesterday afternoon. Um,

1669
01:27:20,320 --> 01:27:22,120
Speaker 1: he said, we're gonna need Craton big. He said, it's

1670
01:27:22,120 --> 01:27:25,720
Speaker 1: possible that could be our biggest decision this weekend. It's

1671
01:27:25,760 --> 01:27:28,760
Speaker 1: definitely not often that a double dig your favorite, that

1672
01:27:28,840 --> 01:27:30,479
Speaker 1: a team is a double dige your favorite in the

1673
01:27:30,520 --> 01:27:32,640
Speaker 1: first three tournament games. But he just know that gonzaga

1674
01:27:32,680 --> 01:27:35,080
Speaker 1: is power is so high this year and their offense

1675
01:27:35,160 --> 01:27:39,599
Speaker 1: looks unstoppable. Yeah, they they have won. I believe straight

1676
01:27:39,640 --> 01:27:42,679
Speaker 1: by double figures now, Patrick, I look at ken Palm

1677
01:27:42,720 --> 01:27:44,880
Speaker 1: a lot. I also look at Bart Torvik just to

1678
01:27:44,920 --> 01:27:47,400
Speaker 1: get a sense of what the straight up numbers say,

1679
01:27:47,479 --> 01:27:50,360
Speaker 1: and Ken Palm only has this as Gonzaga by twelve

1680
01:27:51,360 --> 01:27:54,000
Speaker 1: is a smarter bet. Perhaps the Gonzaga team total, because

1681
01:27:54,000 --> 01:27:55,880
Speaker 1: we know they're gonna get buckets. Creighton not a great

1682
01:27:55,920 --> 01:27:59,840
Speaker 1: defensive team. I think that's an interesting point to make

1683
01:28:00,479 --> 01:28:02,960
Speaker 1: that you know Zaga is gonna get buggets. Maybe look

1684
01:28:02,960 --> 01:28:06,240
Speaker 1: at that Gonzaga UH team total. That's uh and that's

1685
01:28:06,320 --> 01:28:08,479
Speaker 1: and that's the thing that's as a people get more

1686
01:28:08,479 --> 01:28:11,599
Speaker 1: and more informed on betting, you understand that there are, uh,

1687
01:28:11,600 --> 01:28:14,880
Speaker 1: you know, there are you know, derivatives and other options

1688
01:28:14,880 --> 01:28:17,920
Speaker 1: out there that go beyond the spread. And even like

1689
01:28:17,960 --> 01:28:20,120
Speaker 1: you said, with the with what you're seeing on what

1690
01:28:20,240 --> 01:28:22,600
Speaker 1: this number maybe perhaps should be twelve. Well, if you

1691
01:28:22,640 --> 01:28:24,920
Speaker 1: really feel that way and you and you like your source,

1692
01:28:25,400 --> 01:28:28,080
Speaker 1: then maybe that means it's it's worth a play on

1693
01:28:28,280 --> 01:28:30,559
Speaker 1: on the underdog great in here. But but again that's

1694
01:28:30,720 --> 01:28:32,720
Speaker 1: I think that's an interesting tack to take, is to

1695
01:28:33,080 --> 01:28:35,400
Speaker 1: look at Gonzaga team total. They're gonna they're gonna get

1696
01:28:35,400 --> 01:28:38,240
Speaker 1: buckets that this team scores, no question. How about this one.

1697
01:28:38,280 --> 01:28:41,240
Speaker 1: This is one of my more exotic bets of the weekend.

1698
01:28:41,560 --> 01:28:46,559
Speaker 1: I have Syracuse Houston first half under under sixty six. Now,

1699
01:28:46,560 --> 01:28:49,120
Speaker 1: the big surprise to me was I felt like this

1700
01:28:49,200 --> 01:28:51,960
Speaker 1: number was high because a Syracuse plays the two three

1701
01:28:52,040 --> 01:28:53,840
Speaker 1: zone can slow things down. I know they scored a

1702
01:28:53,840 --> 01:28:57,080
Speaker 1: lot opening weekend, but this is not even the lowest

1703
01:28:57,720 --> 01:29:01,280
Speaker 1: first half total of the day. Oregon State Loyola is

1704
01:29:01,320 --> 01:29:04,320
Speaker 1: fifty seven and a half, Villanova Baylor sixty five and

1705
01:29:04,320 --> 01:29:07,240
Speaker 1: a half. So I think there's massive value on Syracuse

1706
01:29:07,280 --> 01:29:10,800
Speaker 1: Houston because we know Houston h Ken get slowed down

1707
01:29:10,880 --> 01:29:13,559
Speaker 1: and they're shooting is not always great against the two

1708
01:29:13,560 --> 01:29:16,599
Speaker 1: three zones. I don't think that's a bad play at all.

1709
01:29:16,880 --> 01:29:19,200
Speaker 1: And in fact, I was just looking over I don't

1710
01:29:19,240 --> 01:29:20,680
Speaker 1: have the first half numbers in front of me, but

1711
01:29:20,720 --> 01:29:24,000
Speaker 1: I was looking at the just the full game, how

1712
01:29:24,000 --> 01:29:27,720
Speaker 1: the betting is going, uh, from from from points that

1713
01:29:27,960 --> 01:29:29,800
Speaker 1: USA went back and forth with them this morning on

1714
01:29:29,840 --> 01:29:31,519
Speaker 1: a few of these games as well. I'm just talking

1715
01:29:31,560 --> 01:29:35,000
Speaker 1: to as many people as I can and and on

1716
01:29:35,040 --> 01:29:39,000
Speaker 1: the full game, you've got at at points be bets,

1717
01:29:39,240 --> 01:29:43,160
Speaker 1: sixty percent of money is on under one forty and

1718
01:29:43,200 --> 01:29:46,519
Speaker 1: a half. And if the full game is gonna go under, well,

1719
01:29:46,600 --> 01:29:48,080
Speaker 1: the tone is going to be set in the first

1720
01:29:48,080 --> 01:29:51,720
Speaker 1: half for that to happen. And so I I think

1721
01:29:51,760 --> 01:29:53,960
Speaker 1: that's uh, I think that's an intriguing play, and it's

1722
01:29:53,960 --> 01:29:56,679
Speaker 1: a good point. You know that this isn't even the lowest,

1723
01:29:57,080 --> 01:29:59,760
Speaker 1: you know, the lowest under on the board. At this point.

1724
01:30:00,600 --> 01:30:03,720
Speaker 1: And let's be realistic. You watch Syracuse. They're not shooting like,

1725
01:30:03,840 --> 01:30:07,000
Speaker 1: they're not shooting fifty from three again, They're not splashing

1726
01:30:07,040 --> 01:30:09,599
Speaker 1: everything like they did against West Virginia and San Diego.

1727
01:30:10,000 --> 01:30:13,920
Speaker 1: Let me wrap up on this one, Patrick, Um USC

1728
01:30:14,160 --> 01:30:17,320
Speaker 1: Oregon is just tantalizing. I'm kind of obsessed with this game.

1729
01:30:17,840 --> 01:30:19,880
Speaker 1: Um Actually, I want to ask you about Alabama and

1730
01:30:19,960 --> 01:30:23,479
Speaker 1: uc Ali in a second. But USC has a great

1731
01:30:23,520 --> 01:30:27,519
Speaker 1: interior defense. They already met this season. USC trucked him

1732
01:30:27,520 --> 01:30:29,800
Speaker 1: by fourteen. They led the game seventeen to one, and

1733
01:30:29,800 --> 01:30:32,800
Speaker 1: they didn't have the second mobile twin the older brother.

1734
01:30:33,880 --> 01:30:36,120
Speaker 1: How did this only open? I thought I saw it

1735
01:30:36,160 --> 01:30:38,479
Speaker 1: at pick, and I know I thought I saw it.

1736
01:30:38,520 --> 01:30:41,479
Speaker 1: I betted at pick thinking, oh, I like Oregon here,

1737
01:30:41,560 --> 01:30:43,040
Speaker 1: and now it's up to two and a half and

1738
01:30:43,080 --> 01:30:46,000
Speaker 1: I feel kind of like a dope betting on the

1739
01:30:46,000 --> 01:30:49,760
Speaker 1: wrong side of a bad number. What am I missing here? Like?

1740
01:30:50,800 --> 01:30:52,840
Speaker 1: USC shot lights out. They're not going to be able

1741
01:30:52,840 --> 01:30:55,920
Speaker 1: to duplicate that performance against Kansas against Oregon. They just won't.

1742
01:30:56,200 --> 01:30:59,240
Speaker 1: Kansas was a bad team. That was USC's best performance

1743
01:30:59,240 --> 01:31:02,880
Speaker 1: of the season. Shooting the three D can't write and

1744
01:31:03,000 --> 01:31:07,599
Speaker 1: Kansas just awful, but but that you have to credit

1745
01:31:07,680 --> 01:31:10,040
Speaker 1: the opponent for for part of that awfulness as well.

1746
01:31:10,080 --> 01:31:12,880
Speaker 1: And Kansas definitely did not have a good season this year.

1747
01:31:13,280 --> 01:31:15,120
Speaker 1: So this is another one where I went back and

1748
01:31:15,160 --> 01:31:17,640
Speaker 1: forth with Nick Bogdanaman to William Hill us and I

1749
01:31:17,720 --> 01:31:19,760
Speaker 1: don't think you you did not get the best of

1750
01:31:19,800 --> 01:31:21,560
Speaker 1: the number. But I don't necessarily think you need to

1751
01:31:21,600 --> 01:31:23,240
Speaker 1: feel dumb about it. I think it's just the way,

1752
01:31:23,920 --> 01:31:26,679
Speaker 1: just kind of the way the line move Probably there

1753
01:31:26,760 --> 01:31:28,880
Speaker 1: was there may have been some sharp play that helped

1754
01:31:28,920 --> 01:31:30,960
Speaker 1: move it that way, but William Hill, this is a

1755
01:31:30,960 --> 01:31:35,639
Speaker 1: two way action game. Tickets on organ of money on USC,

1756
01:31:36,040 --> 01:31:37,920
Speaker 1: and Nick said, I think this is gonna be a

1757
01:31:38,000 --> 01:31:41,720
Speaker 1: dead even bet game. And you know he pointed out

1758
01:31:41,720 --> 01:31:43,639
Speaker 1: when organest ruts the three, well they're tough to stop.

1759
01:31:43,680 --> 01:31:46,280
Speaker 1: They look phenomenal against Iowa. USC is more of a

1760
01:31:46,320 --> 01:31:48,240
Speaker 1: half court team with all their high point of Evan

1761
01:31:48,280 --> 01:31:51,679
Speaker 1: Mowgley is a beast down low. Here's what I thought

1762
01:31:51,680 --> 01:31:53,800
Speaker 1: was interesting about this. But again to your point, I

1763
01:31:53,800 --> 01:31:55,880
Speaker 1: don't think you necessarily got you did not get the

1764
01:31:55,880 --> 01:31:57,960
Speaker 1: best of the number, obviously, but this is a two

1765
01:31:57,960 --> 01:32:02,360
Speaker 1: way bet game, so it is running pretty even but

1766
01:32:02,439 --> 01:32:04,360
Speaker 1: I thought one of the more interesting things, if we

1767
01:32:04,400 --> 01:32:07,479
Speaker 1: can look ahead just a moment, Nick thinks both of

1768
01:32:07,479 --> 01:32:10,519
Speaker 1: these teams could beat Gonzaga if they played in the

1769
01:32:10,560 --> 01:32:14,719
Speaker 1: next round. Wow, that's what he said, could beat Gonzaga.

1770
01:32:14,760 --> 01:32:16,760
Speaker 1: I don't know if USC has the firepower. They have

1771
01:32:16,840 --> 01:32:19,920
Speaker 1: the defense, but I don't know. You know, the last

1772
01:32:20,240 --> 01:32:22,799
Speaker 1: n A tournament game, Patrick, from Gonzaga, All I remember,

1773
01:32:22,840 --> 01:32:27,280
Speaker 1: I was at randomly a Detroit Pistons game. Um, long story,

1774
01:32:27,320 --> 01:32:29,519
Speaker 1: I won't even tell it. I'm in a Detroit Pistons

1775
01:32:29,520 --> 01:32:32,680
Speaker 1: game and we're in a suite and I had Gonzaga

1776
01:32:32,760 --> 01:32:37,479
Speaker 1: I think it was against Texas Tech um in the tournament,

1777
01:32:37,520 --> 01:32:39,240
Speaker 1: and I was like, oh, Gonzaga has got this and

1778
01:32:39,240 --> 01:32:42,679
Speaker 1: they just couldn't do anything offensively, and I was just stunned.

1779
01:32:43,120 --> 01:32:46,080
Speaker 1: And now I'm wondering, Man, that USC defense and even Oregon,

1780
01:32:46,080 --> 01:32:50,360
Speaker 1: which can switch everything on the perimeter, huh. File that

1781
01:32:50,400 --> 01:32:55,000
Speaker 1: one away, boys and girls, the underdog USC or Oregon

1782
01:32:55,040 --> 01:32:57,120
Speaker 1: will be able to hang with Gonzaga. And remember PAC

1783
01:32:57,200 --> 01:33:01,160
Speaker 1: twelve on fire in the tournament. West Coast Conference. Kind

1784
01:33:01,160 --> 01:33:03,240
Speaker 1: of a joke. All right, Patrick Everson covers you can

1785
01:33:03,280 --> 01:33:06,000
Speaker 1: follow him. You should follow him on Twitter at covers

1786
01:33:06,120 --> 01:33:09,800
Speaker 1: Underscore Vegas real quick, Patrick, anything on Alabama? U c

1787
01:33:09,960 --> 01:33:13,040
Speaker 1: l A. Does Bama blow him out? Oh that's a

1788
01:33:13,240 --> 01:33:16,040
Speaker 1: that's a really good question. I'm and I'm going to

1789
01:33:16,120 --> 01:33:18,479
Speaker 1: go back to you know what I got from from

1790
01:33:18,520 --> 01:33:21,240
Speaker 1: William hill Us on this yesterday. I'm kind of scrolling

1791
01:33:21,280 --> 01:33:24,479
Speaker 1: through this real quick, but Nick said, both the sharps

1792
01:33:24,520 --> 01:33:27,320
Speaker 1: and the masses are on Alabama. So you've got the sharp,

1793
01:33:27,600 --> 01:33:31,639
Speaker 1: sharp play and public getting the Crimson tide in this game,

1794
01:33:32,240 --> 01:33:34,960
Speaker 1: and again going into the weekend before the public is

1795
01:33:34,960 --> 01:33:36,920
Speaker 1: even bet and it's a Sunday game, so there's still

1796
01:33:36,920 --> 01:33:39,960
Speaker 1: another day to go. Take account pretty much two to

1797
01:33:40,040 --> 01:33:43,720
Speaker 1: one and money a little beyond two to one on Alabama.

1798
01:33:43,840 --> 01:33:47,040
Speaker 1: So it's you know, Nick says, Alabama is just a monster.

1799
01:33:47,200 --> 01:33:50,000
Speaker 1: They are and everyone saw what they did in Maryland. Yeah, okay,

1800
01:33:50,000 --> 01:33:52,599
Speaker 1: al right, Patrick Everson, thankes a lot of good stuff

1801
01:33:52,600 --> 01:33:55,320
Speaker 1: as usual. Good luck this weekend with the gambling right on.

01:34:28,080 --> 01:34:31,320
Speaker 1: Or is he in a category called pop rap which

1811
01:34:31,320 --> 01:34:35,720
Speaker 1: I didn't even know existed. I mean I would say

1812
01:34:35,720 --> 01:34:39,080
Speaker 1: that his his his music is pop music, so you

1813
01:34:39,120 --> 01:34:42,840
Speaker 1: could classify him his pop rap if you want. It?

1814
01:34:43,000 --> 01:34:46,519
Speaker 1: Is dua lipa She's got a good vibe tour? Sure,

1815
01:34:46,640 --> 01:34:49,439
Speaker 1: I could dig that back here on Fox Sports Radio

1816
01:34:49,520 --> 01:34:53,519
Speaker 1: Live from the Farmer's Insurance, Fox Sports Radio Studios called

1817
01:34:53,520 --> 01:34:55,240
Speaker 1: when eight Farmers to switch and you could save a

1818
01:34:55,240 --> 01:34:59,240
Speaker 1: bundle on your auto insurance. It's you know the NBA schedule,

1819
01:34:59,280 --> 01:35:01,840
Speaker 1: And I know, Gavin, I don't think you're as into

1820
01:35:01,880 --> 01:35:05,280
Speaker 1: the NBA until the playoffs happened. But the NBA season

1821
01:35:05,360 --> 01:35:09,439
Speaker 1: basically goes. You start out on Christmas Day or whatever.

1822
01:35:09,439 --> 01:35:12,000
Speaker 1: The opening day is big. Then there's a huge dip

1823
01:35:12,080 --> 01:35:15,240
Speaker 1: for the NFL. Then it's back up around like the

1824
01:35:15,280 --> 01:35:18,639
Speaker 1: All Star break, which is right after traditionally the NFL

1825
01:35:18,640 --> 01:35:23,040
Speaker 1: season ends, and then it dips again from March Madness,

1826
01:35:24,880 --> 01:35:28,120
Speaker 1: and then it pops back up after March Madness right

1827
01:35:28,400 --> 01:35:31,559
Speaker 1: as we get to the playoffs. So there's a chance

1828
01:35:31,600 --> 01:35:33,479
Speaker 1: that people have missed out on the m v P

1829
01:35:33,640 --> 01:35:35,920
Speaker 1: race and again missed out. I say, you know, some

1830
01:35:35,960 --> 01:35:38,519
Speaker 1: people probably like, who gives a who cares about the end?

1831
01:35:39,000 --> 01:35:40,799
Speaker 1: You know what I was about to say, who cares

1832
01:35:40,840 --> 01:35:43,560
Speaker 1: about the NBA MVP? Give me a break? It's a

1833
01:35:43,640 --> 01:35:45,639
Speaker 1: joke of an award. Janice has won the last two

1834
01:35:45,800 --> 01:35:49,639
Speaker 1: and he hasn't even got to the finals, and yeah,

1835
01:35:50,360 --> 01:35:54,760
Speaker 1: you know, I get it, But in the moment, it's

1836
01:35:54,800 --> 01:35:57,400
Speaker 1: a fun discussion. How about this one, Gavin who won

1837
01:35:57,439 --> 01:36:01,400
Speaker 1: the NFL MVP last year? Aaron Rodger. I had to

1838
01:36:01,400 --> 01:36:03,439
Speaker 1: think for a secon because I was like, okay, Brady

1839
01:36:03,439 --> 01:36:06,040
Speaker 1: won the Super Bowl, Mahomes probably could have won it,

1840
01:36:06,120 --> 01:36:08,519
Speaker 1: but who the heck over? Because the NBA has no

1841
01:36:09,000 --> 01:36:11,720
Speaker 1: there's no interest in the NBA regular season outside of

1842
01:36:11,800 --> 01:36:16,599
Speaker 1: die hards like you. Well, I'm okay, well, I just

1843
01:36:16,880 --> 01:36:22,519
Speaker 1: the NFL has about twenty layers of interest in the sport,

1844
01:36:22,600 --> 01:36:25,519
Speaker 1: in the games and all these different things. The NBA

1845
01:36:25,600 --> 01:36:27,880
Speaker 1: has nothing in the regular season. There's nothing. The only

1846
01:36:27,880 --> 01:36:30,519
Speaker 1: thing interesting is when Lebron gets gets hurt. Okay, well,

1847
01:36:30,560 --> 01:36:32,840
Speaker 1: that's that's kind of interesting. Maybe the late you know

1848
01:36:32,880 --> 01:36:36,040
Speaker 1: what I mean, But there's no actual interest in the

1849
01:36:36,040 --> 01:36:39,000
Speaker 1: war didn't the Warriors lose yesterday? Steph Curry can't seem

1850
01:36:39,080 --> 01:36:42,120
Speaker 1: to win without He's not even playing. He's okay, okay, see,

1851
01:36:42,160 --> 01:36:43,720
Speaker 1: I didn't even know that. But that's the thing that

1852
01:36:43,800 --> 01:36:46,720
Speaker 1: somebody sent me this graphic injured stars currently out of

1853
01:36:46,760 --> 01:36:51,479
Speaker 1: the NBA Kevin Durant, Lebron James, Anthony Davis, Steph Curry,

1854
01:36:51,640 --> 01:36:54,960
Speaker 1: Joel Embiide, LaMelo Ball. Okay, LaMelo Ball. I know you

1855
01:36:54,960 --> 01:36:56,960
Speaker 1: can scoff, he's a rookie the year by a mile.

1856
01:36:57,280 --> 01:36:59,519
Speaker 1: But the other five guys are five of the top

1857
01:36:59,520 --> 01:37:02,280
Speaker 1: ten players. You could probably say five at the top

1858
01:37:02,320 --> 01:37:04,080
Speaker 1: eight in the league. You want to know my number

1859
01:37:04,080 --> 01:37:07,200
Speaker 1: one takeaway from the NBA trade deadline? Um, so the

1860
01:37:07,320 --> 01:37:13,360
Speaker 1: Orlando Magic sell off. You know they're gonna rebuild. Nobody cares,

1861
01:37:14,000 --> 01:37:15,800
Speaker 1: But no, no, this is my thought. Why am I

1862
01:37:15,880 --> 01:37:19,360
Speaker 1: interested in the Jets rebuilding and the Panthers rebuilding and

1863
01:37:19,400 --> 01:37:22,679
Speaker 1: these teams rebuilding in the Browns? But I could not

1864
01:37:23,160 --> 01:37:27,400
Speaker 1: ever care what the Orlando Magic do. And that's that

1865
01:37:27,520 --> 01:37:30,400
Speaker 1: was my takeaway on the NBA trade deadline. Like I

1866
01:37:30,479 --> 01:37:33,840
Speaker 1: forget who wrote this story. Somebody wrote a story about

1867
01:37:33,840 --> 01:37:38,519
Speaker 1: how the NBA basically has, you know, two classes. It's

1868
01:37:38,600 --> 01:37:41,799
Speaker 1: the cities that people want to go to the good teams,

1869
01:37:42,439 --> 01:37:45,439
Speaker 1: and then everybody else who has no chance and like

1870
01:37:45,520 --> 01:37:47,439
Speaker 1: nobody wants to go there, Like I don't care what

1871
01:37:47,560 --> 01:37:49,960
Speaker 1: cap room the Orlando Magic have. They're not getting anybody good.

1872
01:37:50,720 --> 01:37:53,080
Speaker 1: So what you have to do, right, Gavin is draft? Well,

1873
01:37:53,479 --> 01:37:56,639
Speaker 1: we got Penny second, he's a free agent, he's out.

1874
01:37:57,000 --> 01:37:59,839
Speaker 1: We got shocked. Look at Detroit with Blake White Howard

1875
01:38:00,479 --> 01:38:03,639
Speaker 1: with you know, Chris Perfett, who was just here. He said,

1876
01:38:03,680 --> 01:38:06,240
Speaker 1: I can't watch the NBA because I'm being told as

1877
01:38:06,280 --> 01:38:11,280
Speaker 1: a fan that unless the star likes my city that

1878
01:38:11,439 --> 01:38:14,120
Speaker 1: they're just gonna bail on us in the leaf. So

1879
01:38:14,200 --> 01:38:17,680
Speaker 1: here is the counter. You draft a star, and then

1880
01:38:17,720 --> 01:38:20,080
Speaker 1: you've got to do all hell. You've got to move

1881
01:38:20,120 --> 01:38:23,120
Speaker 1: heaven and earth to make that star stage so you

1882
01:38:23,160 --> 01:38:27,120
Speaker 1: can win a championship. Really, Melicans did everything they could

1883
01:38:27,200 --> 01:38:30,160
Speaker 1: to keep Anthony Davis. He said, no, I want to

1884
01:38:30,160 --> 01:38:33,360
Speaker 1: go join Lebron. He only won one playoff series and

1885
01:38:33,400 --> 01:38:36,200
Speaker 1: maybe that's partially on him. But if I'm THEA and

1886
01:38:36,240 --> 01:38:38,719
Speaker 1: that's why I've said us about Zion like clocks ticking?

1887
01:38:39,479 --> 01:38:43,080
Speaker 1: Are they building a championship contender? There? Are they even close?

1888
01:38:43,200 --> 01:38:47,840
Speaker 1: I don't they're They're nineteen and four. Zion's leaving people.

1889
01:38:48,160 --> 01:38:52,040
Speaker 1: I just know our our industry and people really tune

1890
01:38:52,040 --> 01:38:55,479
Speaker 1: out when we talk regular season basketball. We can't. You

1891
01:38:55,560 --> 01:38:59,400
Speaker 1: can't talk Zion. It's not interesting, Like it just isn't

1892
01:38:59,479 --> 01:39:02,240
Speaker 1: Like people don't care what what Zion is putty like

1893
01:39:02,280 --> 01:39:04,880
Speaker 1: it just doesn't. It doesn't. You know that it will

1894
01:39:04,880 --> 01:39:08,440
Speaker 1: come back in the playoffs, but otherwise, this this Dolphins

1895
01:39:08,560 --> 01:39:12,000
Speaker 1: Niners trade massive, It's massive for us. It's it's it's

1896
01:39:12,080 --> 01:39:14,720
Speaker 1: it's content for an entire month leading up to the

Speaker 1: oh boy, this is gonna be fun because he covers

1906
01:39:44,280 --> 01:39:47,519
Speaker 1: the NFL. He knows a lot about the forty Niners,

1907
01:39:47,560 --> 01:39:50,120
Speaker 1: and we have debated the Jimmy Garoppolo stuff for like

1908
01:39:50,160 --> 01:39:51,960
Speaker 1: the better part of two hours. So let's bring in

1909
01:39:52,080 --> 01:39:55,559
Speaker 1: Chris Bierderman from the Sacramento be A Hoope, I said

1910
01:39:55,560 --> 01:39:58,960
Speaker 1: your last name correctly, Chris. Yeah, it's it's Biterman. Peter

1911
01:39:59,280 --> 01:40:01,439
Speaker 1: doesn't look at it doesn't sound at all like, yeah,

1912
01:40:01,439 --> 01:40:04,960
Speaker 1: where's the problem. Yeah, it's It's a long story. Chris

1913
01:40:05,040 --> 01:40:07,960
Speaker 1: is going to be in high demand basically until the

1914
01:40:08,040 --> 01:40:11,240
Speaker 1: draft or until Jimmy Garoppolo goods dealt All right, Chris,

1915
01:40:11,640 --> 01:40:14,679
Speaker 1: I will let you I'm not going to posit my theory.

1916
01:40:14,760 --> 01:40:18,120
Speaker 1: I'm curious as to what you're hearing today, twenty four

1917
01:40:18,200 --> 01:40:21,400
Speaker 1: hours after the forty Niners traded up for the third

1918
01:40:21,439 --> 01:40:24,519
Speaker 1: pick in the draft. Yeah. Well, the forty Niners have

1919
01:40:24,520 --> 01:40:26,640
Speaker 1: have kept things pretty close to the vest. Maybe it's

1920
01:40:26,680 --> 01:40:30,320
Speaker 1: the exception that you know, they've been been sort of

1921
01:40:30,360 --> 01:40:32,360
Speaker 1: spreading it around. I guess a little bit that this

1922
01:40:32,439 --> 01:40:34,799
Speaker 1: is more than likely going to be a quarterback, right,

1923
01:40:34,640 --> 01:40:37,240
Speaker 1: but that they take at number three. And it's really

1924
01:40:37,280 --> 01:40:39,600
Speaker 1: interesting because they're in a spot where they're trying to

1925
01:40:39,640 --> 01:40:42,479
Speaker 1: thread the needle of being a contending team they want

1926
01:40:42,520 --> 01:40:44,280
Speaker 1: to get back to the super Bowl because they're bringing

1927
01:40:44,320 --> 01:40:46,040
Speaker 1: back a lot of players who were on that twenty

1928
01:40:46,160 --> 01:40:48,559
Speaker 1: nineteen team that went to the Super Bowl while also

1929
01:40:48,600 --> 01:40:51,200
Speaker 1: trying to build their quarterback situation for the future. And

1930
01:40:51,240 --> 01:40:54,639
Speaker 1: I know it's it's pretty easy to dismiss the idea

1931
01:40:54,680 --> 01:40:56,639
Speaker 1: of the teams saying that they're going to keep Jimmy

1932
01:40:56,680 --> 01:41:00,840
Speaker 1: Garoppolo around for for another year, um, despite making this

1933
01:41:00,960 --> 01:41:04,320
Speaker 1: trade and adding another quarterback. But I think it would

1934
01:41:04,360 --> 01:41:05,880
Speaker 1: make a lot of sense. And I think what some

1935
01:41:05,920 --> 01:41:08,479
Speaker 1: people are missing is just the context of, you know,

1936
01:41:08,520 --> 01:41:11,200
Speaker 1: there's probably not going to be another offseason program, so

1937
01:41:11,280 --> 01:41:13,400
Speaker 1: if you do bring in a rookie, he's gonna have

1938
01:41:13,439 --> 01:41:16,519
Speaker 1: to learn Kyle Shanahan's offense in a matter of weeks

1939
01:41:16,600 --> 01:41:19,240
Speaker 1: before the start of the regular season, because you know,

1940
01:41:19,280 --> 01:41:22,200
Speaker 1: if it's like last year, training camp didn't start, uh

1941
01:41:22,240 --> 01:41:25,479
Speaker 1: in terms of practice and actually playing football until mid August.

1942
01:41:25,600 --> 01:41:28,800
Speaker 1: So is there really gonna be a rookie quarterback coming

1943
01:41:28,840 --> 01:41:31,360
Speaker 1: in to take your team to a super Bowl with

1944
01:41:31,479 --> 01:41:33,600
Speaker 1: just three weeks of training camp? And and I just

1945
01:41:33,680 --> 01:41:37,120
Speaker 1: find that, um hard hard to fathom. And so I

1946
01:41:37,160 --> 01:41:39,920
Speaker 1: think it would make sense to to you know, keep

1947
01:41:40,000 --> 01:41:42,679
Speaker 1: Jimmy Garoppolo around. See if you can keep him healthy.

1948
01:41:43,160 --> 01:41:45,480
Speaker 1: You know, he does have the upside of a quarterback

1949
01:41:45,520 --> 01:41:48,080
Speaker 1: that could get you to the super Bowl. Kyle Shanahan

1950
01:41:48,120 --> 01:41:50,000
Speaker 1: has said over and over again that he thinks Jimmy

1951
01:41:50,000 --> 01:41:52,559
Speaker 1: Garoppolo can continue to get better. He just needs more

1952
01:41:52,600 --> 01:41:55,320
Speaker 1: playing time. But the issue is the injury stuff. So

1953
01:41:55,400 --> 01:41:59,599
Speaker 1: now the forty nine are insulating themselves from Garoppolo's injury

1954
01:41:59,680 --> 01:42:02,760
Speaker 1: history a little bit by getting somebody who could be

1955
01:42:02,800 --> 01:42:04,880
Speaker 1: a backup. And and they you know, they worked to

1956
01:42:04,960 --> 01:42:07,720
Speaker 1: find a capable backup throughout the off season, whether it

1957
01:42:07,800 --> 01:42:11,479
Speaker 1: be um Andy Dalton or someone like that. And and uh,

1958
01:42:11,520 --> 01:42:13,840
Speaker 1: you know, Jacoby Brissett and somebody who made sense. But

1959
01:42:13,880 --> 01:42:16,240
Speaker 1: those were guys that that went to other teams on

1960
01:42:16,720 --> 01:42:19,439
Speaker 1: bigger deals in the forty Niners could afford because they

1961
01:42:19,479 --> 01:42:22,120
Speaker 1: were fortifying the rest of the roster and giving Trent

1962
01:42:22,200 --> 01:42:25,680
Speaker 1: Williams a record breaking contract. Um, so now they have

1963
01:42:25,800 --> 01:42:28,080
Speaker 1: the potential to roll with Jimmy Garoppolo. Gives them the

1964
01:42:28,120 --> 01:42:31,240
Speaker 1: luxury of developing a quarterback that that they don't have

1965
01:42:31,320 --> 01:42:33,479
Speaker 1: to throw in the mix right away, or if they

1966
01:42:33,520 --> 01:42:36,000
Speaker 1: get a guy like you know, say the Jets decide

1967
01:42:36,000 --> 01:42:38,600
Speaker 1: the pass on Zach Wilson, say they take Justin Fields.

1968
01:42:38,760 --> 01:42:40,760
Speaker 1: I think Zach Wilson has probably good enough to start

1969
01:42:40,840 --> 01:42:43,720
Speaker 1: right away despite these circumstances that I'm talking about. And

1970
01:42:43,720 --> 01:42:46,320
Speaker 1: then you could deal Garoppolo, so they have flexibility. They

1971
01:42:46,320 --> 01:42:48,280
Speaker 1: don't have to get rid of Garoppolo just because they

1972
01:42:48,320 --> 01:42:50,679
Speaker 1: made this trade, and they don't necessarily have to keep

1973
01:42:50,720 --> 01:42:53,679
Speaker 1: them either. So um, I see the logic from both

1974
01:42:53,680 --> 01:42:55,559
Speaker 1: sides of it. What I'm curious to see is whether

1975
01:42:55,640 --> 01:42:58,280
Speaker 1: or not Kyle Shanahan is gonna be um sort of

1976
01:42:58,280 --> 01:43:00,600
Speaker 1: stubborn in the way he looks at quarterbacks and is

1977
01:43:00,640 --> 01:43:04,360
Speaker 1: all this smoke around Mac Jones and you know, people's

1978
01:43:04,560 --> 01:43:07,679
Speaker 1: people who who are uh, you know who who've covered

1979
01:43:07,720 --> 01:43:10,880
Speaker 1: the team and who are well connected within the organization saying, hey,

1980
01:43:10,880 --> 01:43:13,400
Speaker 1: don't rule out Mac Jones here, you know, is that

1981
01:43:13,479 --> 01:43:16,839
Speaker 1: Kyle Shanahan looking for his his version of Kirk Cousins

1982
01:43:16,840 --> 01:43:19,240
Speaker 1: on a rookie contract or is that sort of a

1983
01:43:19,280 --> 01:43:22,040
Speaker 1: smoke screen situation where the forty Niners are playing a

1984
01:43:22,080 --> 01:43:26,280
Speaker 1: little bit of Mr Direction here? Alright? There's a lot there,

1985
01:43:26,560 --> 01:43:29,360
Speaker 1: all right, So I guess my first counter would be,

1986
01:43:29,800 --> 01:43:32,799
Speaker 1: let's go with I like the idea of keeping Jimmy

1987
01:43:32,840 --> 01:43:35,080
Speaker 1: G as your bridge quarterback. I don't think it's an

1988
01:43:35,080 --> 01:43:39,240
Speaker 1: expensive bridge. But let's say they just go, Jimmy G's

1989
01:43:39,240 --> 01:43:42,040
Speaker 1: are starting, We're gonna draft a quarterback at three? What

1990
01:43:42,200 --> 01:43:44,680
Speaker 1: happens if Jimmy G? By the way, I don't have

1991
01:43:44,680 --> 01:43:45,760
Speaker 1: his record off the top of my head, but I

1992
01:43:45,800 --> 01:43:47,640
Speaker 1: believe when he starts with the Niners, they're like, what

1993
01:43:47,760 --> 01:43:50,599
Speaker 1: twenty and six? And then when he doesn't start, they're awful.

1994
01:43:51,400 --> 01:43:53,479
Speaker 1: What happens if you start Jimmy G and you go

1995
01:43:53,560 --> 01:43:55,240
Speaker 1: back to the Super Bowl, and let's just say you

1996
01:43:55,280 --> 01:43:57,920
Speaker 1: win the Super Bowl. I think it's a problem with

1997
01:43:57,960 --> 01:44:00,280
Speaker 1: forty would love to have. Yes, Okay, that was answer

1998
01:44:00,360 --> 01:44:03,200
Speaker 1: I was hoping for. Okay, very unlikely since, as you said,

1999
01:44:03,240 --> 01:44:06,000
Speaker 1: Garoppolo has hurt all the time. So now the question

2000
01:44:06,080 --> 01:44:08,759
Speaker 1: is do you keep Jimmy now or can you trade

2001
01:44:08,880 --> 01:44:11,400
Speaker 1: him now? And the way I look at it, Chris,

2002
01:44:11,720 --> 01:44:15,200
Speaker 1: I'm only seeing realistically Denver and Carolina out there is

2003
01:44:15,400 --> 01:44:18,640
Speaker 1: landing spots or am I missing someone? Yeah? I mean

2004
01:44:18,680 --> 01:44:21,960
Speaker 1: New England would seemingly make sense that they have him Newton,

2005
01:44:22,120 --> 01:44:24,760
Speaker 1: but New England will makes sense. I think Chicago would

2006
01:44:24,760 --> 01:44:28,559
Speaker 1: probably make sense. Um, so I do think he has value.

2007
01:44:28,760 --> 01:44:30,880
Speaker 1: I think the idea that Fortys just need to get

2008
01:44:30,960 --> 01:44:33,320
Speaker 1: rid of him because of the contract is a little

2009
01:44:33,320 --> 01:44:35,439
Speaker 1: bit misguided because you know, I don't know what they

2010
01:44:35,479 --> 01:44:38,160
Speaker 1: necessarily need the cap space for right now. Right Like,

2011
01:44:38,200 --> 01:44:40,200
Speaker 1: there's who are they going to get that they need

2012
01:44:40,360 --> 01:44:42,080
Speaker 1: that that they need to clear that cap room for.

2013
01:44:42,240 --> 01:44:44,680
Speaker 1: They already have twenty million in space right now, so

2014
01:44:44,760 --> 01:44:47,799
Speaker 1: there isn't anybody that they're going to get more than likely, um,

2015
01:44:47,840 --> 01:44:50,160
Speaker 1: you know, before the season starts. So if they want

2016
01:44:50,160 --> 01:44:51,840
Speaker 1: to move off from Garoppolo, it makes more sense to

2017
01:44:51,880 --> 01:44:55,559
Speaker 1: do in order to keep that quarterback flexibility. So I

2018
01:44:55,560 --> 01:44:58,599
Speaker 1: think they're leveraging their situation right now, and it makes sense.

2019
01:44:58,600 --> 01:45:01,840
Speaker 1: So Chris, wouldn't you argue keeping him and then trying

2020
01:45:01,880 --> 01:45:05,760
Speaker 1: to unload him next year when we don't know where

2021
01:45:05,760 --> 01:45:07,400
Speaker 1: the Patriots? I mean, the Patriots could use him now,

2022
01:45:07,439 --> 01:45:10,280
Speaker 1: but they could be desperate next year, right then? What

2023
01:45:10,400 --> 01:45:12,320
Speaker 1: about you know, you go up and down the league

2024
01:45:12,320 --> 01:45:16,880
Speaker 1: big Ben final year, Steelers could certainly use big Ben, right. Uh,

2025
01:45:17,040 --> 01:45:19,280
Speaker 1: we don't know what's going on with teams like the

2026
01:45:19,439 --> 01:45:21,240
Speaker 1: Indian Appolis Colts. What if they don't want to keep

2027
01:45:21,280 --> 01:45:24,240
Speaker 1: wins like maybe they do because of the contract Houston Texans,

2028
01:45:24,240 --> 01:45:26,880
Speaker 1: like it feels like there could be more buyers for

2029
01:45:26,920 --> 01:45:30,760
Speaker 1: Garoppolo next year then right now since musical chairs has

2030
01:45:30,800 --> 01:45:33,880
Speaker 1: mostly stopped. Yeah, and this could be a situation where

2031
01:45:33,920 --> 01:45:35,680
Speaker 1: this lights a fire under him. And if you do

2032
01:45:35,800 --> 01:45:39,120
Speaker 1: get a healthy Jimmy Garoppolo for a full sixteen game season,

2033
01:45:39,200 --> 01:45:41,880
Speaker 1: and he does take steps to to improve his game,

2034
01:45:42,280 --> 01:45:44,960
Speaker 1: then maybe he ends up becoming, you know, a top twelve,

2035
01:45:45,080 --> 01:45:48,200
Speaker 1: top ten type quarterback, which you know, statistically you can

2036
01:45:48,240 --> 01:45:51,120
Speaker 1: make an argument that he was in that realm. He

2037
01:45:51,160 --> 01:45:53,559
Speaker 1: was the only quarterback in the league to finish top

2038
01:45:53,640 --> 01:45:57,680
Speaker 1: five in touchdowns, completion percentage, in yards per attempt, and

2039
01:45:57,680 --> 01:45:59,959
Speaker 1: a lot of that is a credit to Kyle Shanahan.

2040
01:46:00,040 --> 01:46:03,120
Speaker 1: And know he wasn't throwing the ball particularly deep down field,

2041
01:46:03,160 --> 01:46:04,800
Speaker 1: and there are a lot of short throws that were

2042
01:46:04,800 --> 01:46:07,600
Speaker 1: schemed open um. But you know, I think he's a

2043
01:46:07,600 --> 01:46:10,080
Speaker 1: capable quarterback and I think in the right scenario he

2044
01:46:10,080 --> 01:46:11,840
Speaker 1: could be effective for you. And if you have a

2045
01:46:11,840 --> 01:46:14,200
Speaker 1: good team and a good defense. We've already seen that

2046
01:46:14,240 --> 01:46:16,640
Speaker 1: Jimmy Garoppolo can get to a super Bowl, albeit with

2047
01:46:16,800 --> 01:46:18,880
Speaker 1: you know a really good running game too, evidence like

2048
01:46:19,320 --> 01:46:22,400
Speaker 1: what happened with h with Rhee Mostard in the NFC title.

2049
01:46:22,680 --> 01:46:25,639
Speaker 1: But no, I think, you know, there's the forty Niners

2050
01:46:25,680 --> 01:46:28,120
Speaker 1: would be wise to just wait out and see their options.

2051
01:46:28,160 --> 01:46:30,040
Speaker 1: They don't have to make a decision right now. They

2052
01:46:30,040 --> 01:46:32,080
Speaker 1: could um, you know, they could end up with Tree

2053
01:46:32,160 --> 01:46:34,040
Speaker 1: Lance at three, and maybe that's the guy they want.

2054
01:46:34,080 --> 01:46:36,439
Speaker 1: And and you know, Lances somebody who hasn't played since

2055
01:46:36,479 --> 01:46:39,720
Speaker 1: twenty nineteen. He's got a very limited snample size in college,

2056
01:46:39,800 --> 01:46:41,519
Speaker 1: and he might be somebody that you want to develop

2057
01:46:41,560 --> 01:46:43,040
Speaker 1: for the long run. So I don't I don't see

2058
01:46:43,040 --> 01:46:45,120
Speaker 1: why the forty Niners would need to be in a

2059
01:46:45,200 --> 01:46:47,719
Speaker 1: hurry to get rid of Jimmy Garoppolo, because he still

2060
01:46:47,760 --> 01:46:51,280
Speaker 1: is an asset um even with his contract. It's it's

2061
01:46:51,280 --> 01:46:53,120
Speaker 1: more towards the middle of the pack now than it

2062
01:46:53,200 --> 01:46:55,840
Speaker 1: was when he first signed it, obviously, because you have

2063
01:46:55,880 --> 01:46:58,120
Speaker 1: a bunch of guys now making thirty and even forty

2064
01:46:58,120 --> 01:47:01,559
Speaker 1: million dollars a year, So it's it's not entirely crazy

2065
01:47:01,640 --> 01:47:03,840
Speaker 1: for the fortys to decide to keep him even on

2066
01:47:03,880 --> 01:47:06,280
Speaker 1: that cap number, because they don't have anything else to

2067
01:47:06,320 --> 01:47:08,599
Speaker 1: spend that money. On anyway, and if they got rid

2068
01:47:08,640 --> 01:47:11,479
Speaker 1: of Garoppolo, then you're looking at only a rookie quarterback.

2069
01:47:11,560 --> 01:47:13,920
Speaker 1: And no rookie quarterback has ever started in the Super Bowl.

2070
01:47:13,920 --> 01:47:16,120
Speaker 1: And so this is a team, based on all the

2071
01:47:16,120 --> 01:47:18,040
Speaker 1: moves that they've made, wants to get back to the

2072
01:47:18,040 --> 01:47:20,080
Speaker 1: Super Bowl. And it would just be hard to justify

2073
01:47:20,240 --> 01:47:23,200
Speaker 1: in my mind, just just leaving that up to a

2074
01:47:23,280 --> 01:47:26,000
Speaker 1: rookie when you could keep Jimmy Garoppolo without really hurting

2075
01:47:26,000 --> 01:47:29,479
Speaker 1: the hurting you in the big picture. All right, Chris Peterman, Sacramento,

2076
01:47:29,560 --> 01:47:31,800
Speaker 1: b Let me let's go to the quarterback question now.

2077
01:47:32,200 --> 01:47:35,200
Speaker 1: So Chris, a lot of speculation about Justin Fields, who

2078
01:47:35,280 --> 01:47:38,559
Speaker 1: is probably number three, assuming Lawrence and Trevor Wilson go one,

2079
01:47:38,840 --> 01:47:42,559
Speaker 1: Trevor Lawrence and Zach Wilson go one and two, Fields

2080
01:47:42,680 --> 01:47:45,080
Speaker 1: versus Lance. Lance is still are going to be twenty

2081
01:47:45,080 --> 01:47:48,599
Speaker 1: when the draft happens. Field just twenty two. Matt Jones

2082
01:47:48,680 --> 01:47:51,760
Speaker 1: is twenty two. He'll turn twenty three Mac Jones by

2083
01:47:51,800 --> 01:47:55,679
Speaker 1: week one. What what's your read on what Shanahan wants

2084
01:47:55,720 --> 01:47:59,320
Speaker 1: to do. Yeah, I mean, that's that's the toughest part

2085
01:47:59,320 --> 01:48:01,760
Speaker 1: of this whole thing, I think, right, because what we

2086
01:48:01,840 --> 01:48:05,400
Speaker 1: know about Kyle Shanahan. Has he passed on Patrick Mahomes

2087
01:48:05,400 --> 01:48:08,200
Speaker 1: and Deshaun Watson because he planned on signing Kirk Cousins

2088
01:48:08,200 --> 01:48:10,559
Speaker 1: in free agency before the Jimmy Garoppolo things fell in

2089
01:48:10,600 --> 01:48:13,640
Speaker 1: his lap um And you see all of the quarterback

2090
01:48:13,720 --> 01:48:15,960
Speaker 1: experts and the people in the media and the people

2091
01:48:15,960 --> 01:48:18,439
Speaker 1: connected to the team saying, oh, don't roll out Mac Jones,

2092
01:48:18,520 --> 01:48:21,479
Speaker 1: which makes me think maybe Mac Jones is is souped

2093
01:48:21,520 --> 01:48:24,719
Speaker 1: up Kirk Cousins on a rookie contract, or is Kyle

2094
01:48:24,760 --> 01:48:27,719
Speaker 1: Shanahan deciding to adapt and saying, well, I could probably

2095
01:48:27,800 --> 01:48:30,719
Speaker 1: use a quarterback that can make more plays off schedule

2096
01:48:30,800 --> 01:48:32,719
Speaker 1: with his legs, And maybe that's just in the fields

2097
01:48:32,800 --> 01:48:35,559
Speaker 1: or Trey Lance. I think Trey Lance is particularly interesting

2098
01:48:35,560 --> 01:48:38,200
Speaker 1: because he might have a higher upside than Fields, but

2099
01:48:38,240 --> 01:48:40,360
Speaker 1: you're probably gonna have to wait a year at least

2100
01:48:40,439 --> 01:48:42,200
Speaker 1: before you can throw him in the starting lineup right

2101
01:48:42,200 --> 01:48:45,559
Speaker 1: where Fields might be might be more uh might be

2102
01:48:45,960 --> 01:48:49,280
Speaker 1: closer to being able to start right now. And you know,

2103
01:48:49,560 --> 01:48:51,800
Speaker 1: both of those guys give you an element with their

2104
01:48:51,880 --> 01:48:54,479
Speaker 1: legs that that Jimmy Garoppolo just doesn't have. He doesn't

2105
01:48:54,520 --> 01:48:56,840
Speaker 1: really have the ability to escape the pocket make throws

2106
01:48:57,120 --> 01:48:59,799
Speaker 1: outside the structure of the offense. So does Kyle Shanahan

2107
01:49:00,040 --> 01:49:02,320
Speaker 1: to adapt and find a guy that can do that?

2108
01:49:02,400 --> 01:49:04,240
Speaker 1: I think that's what That's what the answer that only

2109
01:49:04,240 --> 01:49:06,559
Speaker 1: he has, right like none of us can really speculate.

2110
01:49:06,920 --> 01:49:09,240
Speaker 1: Hold on, let me back up real quick. Did you

2111
01:49:09,240 --> 01:49:16,760
Speaker 1: you said they passed on mahomes Um? Was that? What? Yeahen?

2112
01:49:16,760 --> 01:49:20,040
Speaker 1: They drafted Salm and Thomas third overall. Okay, So who

2113
01:49:20,080 --> 01:49:22,840
Speaker 1: was the GM at the time? Was that Lynch? Yeah?

2114
01:49:22,960 --> 01:49:25,200
Speaker 1: John Lynch and Kyle And who was the quarterback that

2115
01:49:25,240 --> 01:49:29,599
Speaker 1: they had at the time, Brian Hoyer, Oh my gosh. Yeah,

2116
01:49:29,600 --> 01:49:34,400
Speaker 1: they're planning there. Their plan was to they were rebuilding,

2117
01:49:34,400 --> 01:49:36,800
Speaker 1: and their plan was UM to build out the rest

2118
01:49:36,800 --> 01:49:39,920
Speaker 1: of the roster and eventually pay Kirk Cousins what what

2119
01:49:40,000 --> 01:49:42,680
Speaker 1: the pack or what the Vikings ended up paying for him.

2120
01:49:42,720 --> 01:49:45,560
Speaker 1: But what happened was they had talked to the Patriots

2121
01:49:45,600 --> 01:49:48,400
Speaker 1: at the combine soon after they were hired about being

2122
01:49:48,439 --> 01:49:52,120
Speaker 1: interested in Jimmy Garoppolo, and the Patriots weren't shopping Garoppolo

2123
01:49:52,160 --> 01:49:54,439
Speaker 1: at that point, and then they decided they had to

2124
01:49:54,720 --> 01:49:57,240
Speaker 1: um and offered Garoppolo to the Niners for a second

2125
01:49:57,280 --> 01:49:59,760
Speaker 1: round pick and the forty Niners weren't expecting it, so

2126
01:49:59,800 --> 01:50:02,599
Speaker 1: it change their plans. So um, that's sort of how

2127
01:50:02,680 --> 01:50:04,599
Speaker 1: that whole thing shook out, which is why the mac

2128
01:50:04,680 --> 01:50:07,040
Speaker 1: Jones think is interesting when you hear people compare him

2129
01:50:07,080 --> 01:50:10,040
Speaker 1: that Jimmy Garoppolo and Kirk Cousins, because that's the guy

2130
01:50:10,120 --> 01:50:12,400
Speaker 1: that Kyle Shanahan has liked so much in the past.

2131
01:50:12,760 --> 01:50:15,280
Speaker 1: So you wonder if that's if if he's gonna stick

2132
01:50:15,320 --> 01:50:18,120
Speaker 1: with that mindset when it comes to his next move

2133
01:50:18,160 --> 01:50:20,800
Speaker 1: at quarterback, or if he's gonna adapt and try try

2134
01:50:20,840 --> 01:50:24,000
Speaker 1: to get somebody who has, you know, more playmaking skills

2135
01:50:24,080 --> 01:50:27,160
Speaker 1: outside of structure. And and you know, Kyle Shanahan goes

2136
01:50:27,160 --> 01:50:29,559
Speaker 1: against these guys, he goes against Russell Wilson and Kyler

2137
01:50:29,600 --> 01:50:31,800
Speaker 1: Murray you know, eight times a year or four times

2138
01:50:31,840 --> 01:50:35,200
Speaker 1: a year. So um, you know, like he's he's he's seen,

2139
01:50:35,560 --> 01:50:38,120
Speaker 1: he sees what mobile quarterbacks can do and what that

2140
01:50:38,200 --> 01:50:41,839
Speaker 1: element does, um and and could potentially make his life easier.

2141
01:50:41,840 --> 01:50:43,720
Speaker 1: The question is does he want to add that guy

2142
01:50:43,760 --> 01:50:46,280
Speaker 1: to his offense or does he still want a traditional

2143
01:50:46,320 --> 01:50:48,880
Speaker 1: pocket pass or someone more like Kirk Cousins, who in

2144
01:50:48,920 --> 01:50:50,960
Speaker 1: this case would be Mac Jones, got it all right,

2145
01:50:51,040 --> 01:50:53,559
Speaker 1: Chris Peterman, Sacrament will be Oh boy, this is You're

2146
01:50:53,560 --> 01:50:56,200
Speaker 1: gonna be having so much fun over the next few months.

2147
01:50:56,520 --> 01:50:59,920
Speaker 1: It's gonna becoming debate about mac Jones or just a

2148
01:51:00,080 --> 01:51:02,479
Speaker 1: Field or Trey Lance, and somebody's going to be right

2149
01:51:02,640 --> 01:51:05,559
Speaker 1: and two people will be wrong. What if, you know,

2150
01:51:05,600 --> 01:51:07,720
Speaker 1: what if what if the Jets decide that they like

2151
01:51:08,200 --> 01:51:11,600
Speaker 1: because Robert because Robert Salo wants his his version of

2152
01:51:11,680 --> 01:51:14,120
Speaker 1: Russell Wilson. After you know, Salo is a defensive coach,

2153
01:51:14,160 --> 01:51:15,840
Speaker 1: and maybe he wants the running game and a fall

2154
01:51:15,880 --> 01:51:18,439
Speaker 1: control quarterback and a mobile quarterback rather than you know,

2155
01:51:18,600 --> 01:51:20,760
Speaker 1: having to win thirty eight to thirty six every week.

2156
01:51:20,840 --> 01:51:22,920
Speaker 1: You know, maybe maybe Wilson falls and number three. You

2157
01:51:22,920 --> 01:51:27,040
Speaker 1: never know. Alright, oh boy, this is fine, all right, Chris,

Speaker 1: from the Farmer's Insurance Fox Sports Radio Studios called Farmers

2165
01:51:52,680 --> 01:51:56,000
Speaker 1: today for a quote. Alright, just to recap some of

2166
01:51:56,000 --> 01:51:58,400
Speaker 1: the Sweet six team bets. Now, some of these I

2167
01:51:58,479 --> 01:52:00,599
Speaker 1: made earlier this week. The lines of been out since

2168
01:52:00,640 --> 01:52:04,479
Speaker 1: like Monday and Tuesday, guys, So you snooze, you lose.

2169
01:52:04,600 --> 01:52:07,479
Speaker 1: I got Villanova Baylor over one thirty eight, over one

2170
01:52:07,560 --> 01:52:11,320
Speaker 1: thirty nine. It's now over like one forty. And sports

2171
01:52:11,400 --> 01:52:14,120
Speaker 1: Cheetah earlier came on the show and said, look at

2172
01:52:14,120 --> 01:52:17,080
Speaker 1: the under Arkansas minus eleven, minus eleven and a half.

2173
01:52:17,439 --> 01:52:19,320
Speaker 1: I just like them to crush or Roberts in the

2174
01:52:19,360 --> 01:52:22,320
Speaker 1: second half. Live Bedding could be your friend. If Oral

2175
01:52:22,360 --> 01:52:25,920
Speaker 1: Bob goes up early, Oregon pick bad line, it's at two.

2176
01:52:26,400 --> 01:52:29,960
Speaker 1: Take the points, Florida State plus three. I hate Syracuse

2177
01:52:30,000 --> 01:52:33,040
Speaker 1: plus six, but I took it Creaton plus fourteen. And

2178
01:52:33,240 --> 01:52:36,760
Speaker 1: for fun a teaser. I like the favorites to really

2179
01:52:36,840 --> 01:52:41,719
Speaker 1: roll today, Baylor, Arkansas, Loyola Alabama. Teasing Basketball is dumb,

2180
01:52:41,760 --> 01:52:45,400
Speaker 1: but it's fun. I've always heard that because there's so

2181
01:52:45,479 --> 01:52:47,920
Speaker 1: much variance in basketball, like with the threes and the

2182
01:52:47,920 --> 01:52:50,639
Speaker 1: free throws at the end um teasing. In the NFL,

2183
01:52:50,680 --> 01:52:52,439
Speaker 1: you go through a key number, you're fine because there's

2184
01:52:52,479 --> 01:52:56,640
Speaker 1: not as much scoring um, all right quick, non sports.

2185
01:52:56,920 --> 01:52:59,040
Speaker 1: I just texted this to Gavin. This is something I

2186
01:52:59,080 --> 01:53:03,599
Speaker 1: read like two days ago. Really really good. You guys know, Um,

2187
01:53:03,640 --> 01:53:06,240
Speaker 1: I had started the website, The Big Lead, and we

2188
01:53:06,240 --> 01:53:08,280
Speaker 1: did a lot of sports. What we focused on the media.

2189
01:53:08,439 --> 01:53:11,439
Speaker 1: You write about the media, they then read you and

2190
01:53:11,479 --> 01:53:13,640
Speaker 1: they want to be mentioned in blah blah blah. It was.

2191
01:53:13,680 --> 01:53:16,080
Speaker 1: It's a tried and true method. A lot of other

2192
01:53:16,120 --> 01:53:18,120
Speaker 1: blogs do it now. We were doing it fifteen years ago.

2193
01:53:19,040 --> 01:53:22,559
Speaker 1: This story by a guy named Matt Taibi. He's written

2194
01:53:22,560 --> 01:53:25,640
Speaker 1: for I think like g Q and Rolling Stone. He

2195
01:53:25,680 --> 01:53:28,559
Speaker 1: wrote something, did I say it right? Okay? Yeah, the

2196
01:53:28,760 --> 01:53:32,280
Speaker 1: sovietization of the American press. I'm not gonna say anymore.

2197
01:53:32,479 --> 01:53:35,040
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna skew it. It's a really good piece.

2198
01:53:37,200 --> 01:53:40,280
Speaker 1: And listen, it's gonna make you think, you know. And

2199
01:53:40,320 --> 01:53:42,040
Speaker 1: I'm just gonna repeat something I've said on the show.

2200
01:53:42,040 --> 01:53:44,960
Speaker 1: I heard it from some philosopher. If all of your

2201
01:53:44,960 --> 01:53:47,960
Speaker 1: political beliefs line up in one party, you're not a

2202
01:53:48,000 --> 01:53:50,920
Speaker 1: clear thinker. And I'm not going on a political rant.

2203
01:53:52,280 --> 01:53:56,120
Speaker 1: This piece will make you think, like you know? Anyways?

2204
01:53:56,160 --> 01:54:00,240
Speaker 1: All right, So I alway, Sam, real quick, iowaha again,

2205
01:54:00,320 --> 01:54:02,040
Speaker 1: how did you handle the loss? It was I mean,

2206
01:54:02,080 --> 01:54:03,960
Speaker 1: it was tough. It was tough. They were they actually

2207
01:54:04,000 --> 01:54:05,880
Speaker 1: were playing a pretty even game up until about two

2208
01:54:05,880 --> 01:54:08,040
Speaker 1: minutes left and a half the first half, and then

2209
01:54:08,080 --> 01:54:12,000
Speaker 1: Oregon just soared away. Uh. And you asked if Oregon

2210
01:54:12,040 --> 01:54:14,960
Speaker 1: can beat Gonzaga. I think they absolutely can. They could

2211
01:54:14,960 --> 01:54:16,400
Speaker 1: have put up they could have put up a hundred

2212
01:54:16,400 --> 01:54:18,560
Speaker 1: and five points on Iowa. I mean, they kind of

2213
01:54:18,680 --> 01:54:21,040
Speaker 1: let up the gas at the end there. But um,

2214
01:54:21,200 --> 01:54:24,320
Speaker 1: I just think that Gonzaga is just has a slight edge.

2215
01:54:24,360 --> 01:54:26,000
Speaker 1: I just think that. I mean, but in terms of

2216
01:54:26,080 --> 01:54:30,400
Speaker 1: running and scoring and hitting threes, they're they're pretty even.

2217
01:54:30,479 --> 01:54:33,440
Speaker 1: I just think that, you know, Corey Kissberg and Timmy

2218
01:54:33,560 --> 01:54:37,040
Speaker 1: and Jalen sucks like they just got I mean, man,

2219
01:54:37,160 --> 01:54:39,600
Speaker 1: Gonzaga is so good and they're getting they're getting really

2220
01:54:39,600 --> 01:54:43,200
Speaker 1: good recruits too, and they have been from the next Yeah,

2221
01:54:43,240 --> 01:54:46,200
Speaker 1: and so I mean that the machine doesn't stop with Okay,

2222
01:54:46,240 --> 01:54:49,240
Speaker 1: this is an incendiary take, and Scott Van Pelt was

2223
01:54:49,280 --> 01:54:52,840
Speaker 1: not happy that I put this out there. Iowa. Even

2224
01:54:52,880 --> 01:54:55,320
Speaker 1: though they're losing Bohannon one of the best players ever

2225
01:54:55,480 --> 01:55:00,360
Speaker 1: and Garza superstar, best player in the program's history. Maybe Yeah,

2226
01:55:00,400 --> 01:55:04,920
Speaker 1: I mean, he's the most will be better equipped to

2227
01:55:04,960 --> 01:55:06,800
Speaker 1: make a deep run in the tournament next year. They

2228
01:55:06,800 --> 01:55:08,800
Speaker 1: have a great young group of players, and they have

2229
01:55:08,840 --> 01:55:11,200
Speaker 1: a lot of wings, which I like, I don't like.

2230
01:55:11,400 --> 01:55:15,360
Speaker 1: One big guy Oregon was attacking Garza and defensively Garza

2231
01:55:15,360 --> 01:55:18,480
Speaker 1: got his points. But yeah, they were just tool. They're

2232
01:55:18,480 --> 01:55:20,080
Speaker 1: gonna be much better on the way with this guy,

2233
01:55:20,200 --> 01:55:22,120
Speaker 1: Kegan Murray. I'm very excited of it. But anyway, let's

2234
01:55:22,120 --> 01:55:24,120
Speaker 1: focus on the teams. They're still in the tournament. It's

2235
01:55:24,120 --> 01:55:25,440
Speaker 1: gonna be great. Yeah, you don't like when I talk

2236
01:55:25,480 --> 01:55:26,800
Speaker 1: about Oh no, no no, it's not that. It's just that

2237
01:55:26,840 --> 01:55:28,760
Speaker 1: I love the fact that, I mean, the teams are

2238
01:55:28,760 --> 01:55:30,600
Speaker 1: still in it. Deserved be there, they deserve spot. Will

2239
01:55:30,600 --> 01:55:33,320
Speaker 1: you watch the Iowa women today as they're on in

2240
01:55:33,360 --> 01:55:36,240
Speaker 1: six minutes I'm putting okay, yeah, yeah, it's it's a

2241
01:55:36,240 --> 01:55:41,480
Speaker 1: good matchup page buckets. Uh. Anyways, Yeah, thanks a lot,
