1 00:00:01,080 --> 00:00:03,760 Speaker 1: You're listening to Fox Sports Radio Radio. 2 00:00:04,120 --> 00:00:06,040 Speaker 2: I mean, I guess it'll happen to all of us 3 00:00:06,160 --> 00:00:09,400 Speaker 2: at some point or another. Whatever it is you do 4 00:00:09,480 --> 00:00:12,840 Speaker 2: in life, at some point someone's gonna say, Man, it's 5 00:00:12,880 --> 00:00:16,599 Speaker 2: passed you by, your time is up, you need to quit. 6 00:00:17,000 --> 00:00:18,520 Speaker 3: Whatever it may be. 7 00:00:18,560 --> 00:00:21,400 Speaker 2: We're broadcasting a lot from the Fox Sports Radio studios. 8 00:00:21,800 --> 00:00:23,120 Speaker 3: I mean, we can disprove it. 9 00:00:23,200 --> 00:00:26,000 Speaker 2: There have been plenty of old people out there doing 10 00:00:26,000 --> 00:00:29,360 Speaker 2: their jobs doing it well, especially in coaching. So I'm 11 00:00:29,360 --> 00:00:31,040 Speaker 2: not a big fany from I don't know if you 12 00:00:31,120 --> 00:00:33,800 Speaker 2: are necessarily the game has passed you by. To me, 13 00:00:33,880 --> 00:00:37,680 Speaker 2: it depends to what level do you evolve. And here 14 00:00:37,920 --> 00:00:43,520 Speaker 2: is what I'm talking about. Have we passed the time 15 00:00:43,640 --> 00:00:45,919 Speaker 2: in our lives? And you can like this or not, 16 00:00:46,040 --> 00:00:48,240 Speaker 2: but it's just a yes or no question. I would say, 17 00:00:48,720 --> 00:00:51,360 Speaker 2: have we passed the time in our lives? For example, 18 00:00:51,840 --> 00:00:55,600 Speaker 2: when a sporting event gets started, do we need to 19 00:00:56,160 --> 00:01:01,680 Speaker 2: all get together and prop early, show our respects to 20 00:01:01,720 --> 00:01:05,520 Speaker 2: one another, shake the right hands, wave in the right spots. 21 00:01:05,880 --> 00:01:10,000 Speaker 2: And therefore if you don't do that, is it disrespectful? 22 00:01:10,400 --> 00:01:12,119 Speaker 2: This is what I want to get into with Geno 23 00:01:12,319 --> 00:01:16,480 Speaker 2: ri Ema. But first, hey, good evening, good evening. What's 24 00:01:16,520 --> 00:01:16,840 Speaker 2: going on? 25 00:01:16,920 --> 00:01:17,080 Speaker 3: Man? 26 00:01:17,160 --> 00:01:20,160 Speaker 2: I'm killing man? How you doing cool? I'm great, I'm great. 27 00:01:21,440 --> 00:01:26,920 Speaker 2: I'm glad Geno apologized. I'll start with that. Yeah, I'm 28 00:01:26,959 --> 00:01:30,720 Speaker 2: glad he apologized, but then down Staley made a mockery 29 00:01:30,800 --> 00:01:33,640 Speaker 2: of him by like making it a big show in 30 00:01:33,720 --> 00:01:38,120 Speaker 2: the national title game today. You mean to tell me 31 00:01:38,560 --> 00:01:41,120 Speaker 2: that all of that and we'll play the sound for 32 00:01:41,160 --> 00:01:44,080 Speaker 2: you in a second. That was all about you didn't 33 00:01:44,080 --> 00:01:46,759 Speaker 2: come and say hi to me before the game? 34 00:01:48,720 --> 00:01:50,800 Speaker 3: Come on, what are we actually talking about here? 35 00:01:51,600 --> 00:01:52,320 Speaker 4: The wrong thing? 36 00:01:52,680 --> 00:01:54,320 Speaker 3: Okay, what's the right thing? 37 00:01:56,560 --> 00:01:59,400 Speaker 4: The game is always the right thing. It can't ever 38 00:01:59,440 --> 00:02:01,440 Speaker 4: be bigger than the game, and they can't ever distract 39 00:02:01,520 --> 00:02:05,720 Speaker 4: from the actual game. And I say that to say, 40 00:02:05,800 --> 00:02:09,639 Speaker 4: you know, shout out to UCLA women YEP for putting 41 00:02:09,639 --> 00:02:15,720 Speaker 4: the hammer down on South Carolina. You know who's made 42 00:02:15,720 --> 00:02:19,360 Speaker 4: it a perennial, yearly thing to be in the championship game. 43 00:02:20,240 --> 00:02:23,600 Speaker 4: Don Staley is a tremendous coach. But do u c 44 00:02:23,720 --> 00:02:28,000 Speaker 4: l A Bruins. They came in today with bad intentions. 45 00:02:28,360 --> 00:02:31,600 Speaker 4: There was no distraction. There was no no, you know, 46 00:02:32,040 --> 00:02:34,600 Speaker 4: no distraction coming off the last game or who thought 47 00:02:34,639 --> 00:02:36,840 Speaker 4: what and who felt what and why they did or 48 00:02:37,160 --> 00:02:43,600 Speaker 4: ripped jersey. It was just hammer down and it started 49 00:02:43,639 --> 00:02:46,359 Speaker 4: from the jump and it just they I mean, they 50 00:02:46,400 --> 00:02:51,320 Speaker 4: dominated a dominant team, dominated a dominant team. 51 00:02:51,400 --> 00:02:54,160 Speaker 2: Pretty good performance and it wasn't for a title. But 52 00:02:54,200 --> 00:02:56,240 Speaker 2: I would say the same thing about what Michigan did 53 00:02:56,320 --> 00:02:59,960 Speaker 2: last night. Oh goodness, right, I didn't see that one coming. 54 00:03:00,160 --> 00:03:01,880 Speaker 2: You're thirty on Arizona. 55 00:03:02,480 --> 00:03:07,320 Speaker 4: That was it was like what happening right now? Right? 56 00:03:08,760 --> 00:03:11,000 Speaker 4: It wasn't even I mean, it was hard to watch. 57 00:03:11,040 --> 00:03:13,040 Speaker 4: After a while, I was like, Okay, I. 58 00:03:12,960 --> 00:03:14,800 Speaker 3: Was expecting a great game and we didn't get it. 59 00:03:14,960 --> 00:03:20,519 Speaker 4: No, no, no, no, no. I thought for sure that game. 60 00:03:20,560 --> 00:03:23,919 Speaker 4: Both spent time at number one, the overall number one 61 00:03:24,000 --> 00:03:28,760 Speaker 4: team in the country this year, and they both had size, athleticism, 62 00:03:28,800 --> 00:03:34,160 Speaker 4: shot makers. But that's sport. That's sport, that's basketball, that's 63 00:03:34,200 --> 00:03:39,680 Speaker 4: football as baseball. Sometimes you know, the other team shows 64 00:03:39,760 --> 00:03:44,760 Speaker 4: up in a way that you don't, and it's heartbreaking, 65 00:03:44,840 --> 00:03:48,520 Speaker 4: especially when it's big moments like that. It's South Carolina 66 00:03:48,560 --> 00:03:49,160 Speaker 4: a better team. 67 00:03:49,280 --> 00:03:53,000 Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, probably, I mean we're to the wise, probably 68 00:03:53,040 --> 00:03:56,440 Speaker 2: for Michigan, right, And like there have been times in 69 00:03:56,520 --> 00:03:59,720 Speaker 2: sports throughout the years, where I think we feel like this, 70 00:03:59,840 --> 00:04:01,640 Speaker 2: We feel like the Cowboys. 71 00:04:01,240 --> 00:04:02,480 Speaker 3: And Niners in the nineties. 72 00:04:02,520 --> 00:04:04,920 Speaker 2: This used to be the thing, like the semi final 73 00:04:05,520 --> 00:04:06,760 Speaker 2: was actually the final. 74 00:04:08,200 --> 00:04:10,160 Speaker 3: But you gotta be careful sometimes. 75 00:04:11,400 --> 00:04:15,920 Speaker 2: Never forget when South Carolina first a handful of years 76 00:04:15,960 --> 00:04:20,120 Speaker 2: ago beat Yukon and and you know, ended that that 77 00:04:20,279 --> 00:04:24,440 Speaker 2: tremendous streak and all of that, and then went and 78 00:04:24,640 --> 00:04:26,880 Speaker 2: you know, they did not win the game in the 79 00:04:26,920 --> 00:04:30,440 Speaker 2: actual final. So same thing for Michigan and maybe the 80 00:04:30,440 --> 00:04:32,640 Speaker 2: same thing for South Carolina. When you put all of 81 00:04:32,680 --> 00:04:35,880 Speaker 2: that emotion into the semi final because you think that's 82 00:04:35,880 --> 00:04:38,680 Speaker 2: the one you gotta win, you gotta remember to. 83 00:04:38,600 --> 00:04:39,200 Speaker 3: Bring your game. 84 00:04:39,440 --> 00:04:41,839 Speaker 2: Yeah, you gotta remember game game two nights later, because 85 00:04:41,839 --> 00:04:43,880 Speaker 2: there's another really good team, maybe not as good, but 86 00:04:43,920 --> 00:04:45,479 Speaker 2: another really good team is sitting there waiting. 87 00:04:46,240 --> 00:04:48,839 Speaker 4: Yeah, and it's gonna be interesting to see how Michigan 88 00:04:48,880 --> 00:04:49,560 Speaker 4: shows up. 89 00:04:53,120 --> 00:04:54,480 Speaker 3: Tomorrow, yep, you. 90 00:04:54,480 --> 00:04:57,880 Speaker 4: Know, to a Yukon team that's that's hungry. They know 91 00:04:57,920 --> 00:05:03,159 Speaker 4: what this feels like, third time in four years, So 92 00:05:04,440 --> 00:05:07,760 Speaker 4: it'll be really interesting to see if they if they 93 00:05:07,800 --> 00:05:08,440 Speaker 4: come ready to go. 94 00:05:09,480 --> 00:05:11,359 Speaker 2: Let me ask you this though, because kind of getting 95 00:05:11,400 --> 00:05:14,320 Speaker 2: back to the whole coaching thing like, here's my quick 96 00:05:14,360 --> 00:05:17,119 Speaker 2: read on at Gino. You weren't actually mad at Dawn. 97 00:05:17,920 --> 00:05:21,000 Speaker 2: You were mad at the refs. And right, you were 98 00:05:21,040 --> 00:05:24,680 Speaker 2: actually mad at the refs, and that's fine, and we've 99 00:05:24,720 --> 00:05:26,839 Speaker 2: all done that. There's not a human being listening to 100 00:05:26,880 --> 00:05:29,240 Speaker 2: us right now that hasn't done the whole like you 101 00:05:29,800 --> 00:05:33,200 Speaker 2: take it out on someone else when you were actually 102 00:05:33,240 --> 00:05:36,160 Speaker 2: mad about this thing over here. It happens a very 103 00:05:36,240 --> 00:05:41,120 Speaker 2: human thing, and I firmly believe that that's what happened 104 00:05:41,440 --> 00:05:44,880 Speaker 2: the other night with Gino. But there's just a couple 105 00:05:44,920 --> 00:05:48,200 Speaker 2: of things for me, in other words, like to address 106 00:05:48,240 --> 00:05:52,320 Speaker 2: on this, I would say, like, at first, one thing 107 00:05:52,400 --> 00:05:54,640 Speaker 2: I and I don't know if you agree. 108 00:05:54,680 --> 00:05:56,559 Speaker 3: I don't know if we've had this conversation before. 109 00:05:56,680 --> 00:06:01,160 Speaker 2: One thing I'd say in general about spool worts is 110 00:06:02,080 --> 00:06:07,279 Speaker 2: to a point, I would rather start letting people say 111 00:06:07,320 --> 00:06:13,760 Speaker 2: what they need to say about officiating, umpiring, whatever the whole, 112 00:06:13,920 --> 00:06:17,680 Speaker 2: like it's taboo thing, like I can't say this in 113 00:06:17,720 --> 00:06:20,800 Speaker 2: a press conference or else I'm gonna get fined. I've 114 00:06:20,839 --> 00:06:23,880 Speaker 2: never understood that you go to the press conference and 115 00:06:23,960 --> 00:06:27,400 Speaker 2: say so many things about so much different stuff, but 116 00:06:28,040 --> 00:06:30,880 Speaker 2: if you suddenly get to this this one thing. 117 00:06:31,480 --> 00:06:33,120 Speaker 3: Now you're gonna be fined for it. 118 00:06:33,240 --> 00:06:36,440 Speaker 2: I'm not calling it open season, Like, let's just go 119 00:06:36,480 --> 00:06:39,360 Speaker 2: to press conferences and start calling officials out by name 120 00:06:39,440 --> 00:06:42,640 Speaker 2: and let's get profane about it or anything like that. 121 00:06:43,160 --> 00:06:44,960 Speaker 3: Why is that so taboo? Though? 122 00:06:45,880 --> 00:06:49,000 Speaker 2: Like because maybe if Gino was in a spot and 123 00:06:49,040 --> 00:06:51,400 Speaker 2: he did let loose a little bit, but it was 124 00:06:51,440 --> 00:06:56,040 Speaker 2: in a general sense about fouls in a sideline sort 125 00:06:56,040 --> 00:07:00,760 Speaker 2: of a quick interview, But maybe the whole like taking 126 00:07:00,800 --> 00:07:03,520 Speaker 2: it out on someone else's thing, wouldn't happen as much 127 00:07:04,200 --> 00:07:07,559 Speaker 2: if coaches or anyone for that matter, was a little 128 00:07:07,560 --> 00:07:10,480 Speaker 2: bit more able to speak freely when it comes to 129 00:07:10,480 --> 00:07:11,920 Speaker 2: what they're actually ticked off about. 130 00:07:12,880 --> 00:07:16,560 Speaker 4: I think most coaches, especially good coaches, don't want it 131 00:07:16,600 --> 00:07:24,000 Speaker 4: to feel like they're blaming someone, so they hesitate because 132 00:07:24,000 --> 00:07:26,040 Speaker 4: you don't want to be the guy always pointing the finger. 133 00:07:26,040 --> 00:07:29,480 Speaker 4: You don't want to be the Luca of coaches, right, 134 00:07:29,800 --> 00:07:31,760 Speaker 4: I mean that gets annoying, no matter how great you are, 135 00:07:31,880 --> 00:07:35,120 Speaker 4: Sure that gets a bit annoying. Coaches are aware of that, 136 00:07:35,160 --> 00:07:38,560 Speaker 4: they're cognizant of that, and so sometimes they swallow a 137 00:07:38,640 --> 00:07:41,240 Speaker 4: lot and then you know, sometimes they by a pop 138 00:07:42,240 --> 00:07:44,920 Speaker 4: you know, the bigger the game, the more likely the 139 00:07:44,960 --> 00:07:48,920 Speaker 4: pop if you've been suppressing and pushing things down. 140 00:07:50,320 --> 00:07:54,520 Speaker 2: That's fair. I always find it funny though. In fact, 141 00:07:54,680 --> 00:07:57,200 Speaker 2: even Geno's comments, well again, we'll play the play by 142 00:07:57,240 --> 00:07:59,680 Speaker 2: play here in just a second, but in the middle 143 00:07:59,720 --> 00:08:04,760 Speaker 2: of this interview is like, I'm not making excuses, but well, 144 00:08:04,800 --> 00:08:08,760 Speaker 2: but then what is it? And by the way, why 145 00:08:08,760 --> 00:08:12,840 Speaker 2: do we have to suddenly refer to those things as excuses, 146 00:08:14,040 --> 00:08:16,280 Speaker 2: Like those things can be real. 147 00:08:17,120 --> 00:08:19,840 Speaker 4: Yeah, but it's like the officials, but the. 148 00:08:19,720 --> 00:08:22,200 Speaker 3: Officials can mess up and it affects games. 149 00:08:22,360 --> 00:08:26,280 Speaker 4: Yeah, but the first this is a perfect example. Okay, 150 00:08:26,520 --> 00:08:29,480 Speaker 4: remember the whole situation I went to through two weeks 151 00:08:29,520 --> 00:08:33,280 Speaker 4: ago with with the AA, I mean not AA, with 152 00:08:33,360 --> 00:08:36,320 Speaker 4: the red ball and teams and doing what they're doing. 153 00:08:37,200 --> 00:08:42,680 Speaker 4: We lost that game, so it came across I'm sure, 154 00:08:42,800 --> 00:08:45,720 Speaker 4: to the board. In addition, no matter how much proof 155 00:08:45,760 --> 00:08:50,440 Speaker 4: we had, which we had solid proof, that it was 156 00:08:50,480 --> 00:08:53,520 Speaker 4: because we lost the game. And that's why I even 157 00:08:53,600 --> 00:08:56,679 Speaker 4: hesitated to do it. But the more information I found out, 158 00:08:56,679 --> 00:08:58,200 Speaker 4: I was like, well, at least I'm going to give 159 00:08:58,240 --> 00:09:00,440 Speaker 4: a voice to people who don't have a voice from 160 00:09:00,440 --> 00:09:04,680 Speaker 4: that park. So that's really why I didn't expect anything 161 00:09:04,679 --> 00:09:07,040 Speaker 4: to happen in terms of them to turn, overturn it 162 00:09:07,400 --> 00:09:12,880 Speaker 4: or do anything like that. But that's what it literally 163 00:09:13,080 --> 00:09:18,360 Speaker 4: was for, is because you know, it'll all you. They'll 164 00:09:18,400 --> 00:09:21,559 Speaker 4: always point to you as, oh, they're mad because they lost, 165 00:09:22,800 --> 00:09:26,320 Speaker 4: and that wasn't the case. We lost, and I was 166 00:09:26,679 --> 00:09:29,679 Speaker 4: gracious in the loss at the end, at the end 167 00:09:29,720 --> 00:09:32,200 Speaker 4: of the night, I was I was gracious, and and 168 00:09:32,240 --> 00:09:35,360 Speaker 4: I got it and and everything. But when I started 169 00:09:35,480 --> 00:09:38,080 Speaker 4: really looking and finding out the information, that's when I 170 00:09:38,120 --> 00:09:41,040 Speaker 4: was like, wait, something's not right here. And so you know, 171 00:09:41,120 --> 00:09:43,680 Speaker 4: I rose, raised my hand up and then. 172 00:09:44,000 --> 00:09:47,040 Speaker 3: Told right as you should. 173 00:09:47,520 --> 00:09:50,880 Speaker 4: But for a vast majority of people, even our listeners, 174 00:09:51,200 --> 00:09:53,040 Speaker 4: it probably came off as oh, he's only doing that 175 00:09:53,040 --> 00:09:53,760 Speaker 4: because he lost. 176 00:09:53,960 --> 00:09:57,760 Speaker 2: Well, I mean, the bottom line is is what happened 177 00:09:57,760 --> 00:10:00,040 Speaker 2: in that particular scenario would have been a real thing 178 00:10:00,160 --> 00:10:00,720 Speaker 2: even if. 179 00:10:00,559 --> 00:10:01,120 Speaker 3: You had won. 180 00:10:01,360 --> 00:10:05,480 Speaker 2: That's true, but it probably comes to light a little 181 00:10:05,520 --> 00:10:09,840 Speaker 2: bit less actually, because in fact, I don't even know 182 00:10:09,880 --> 00:10:11,839 Speaker 2: if that other team would have still been in the 183 00:10:11,920 --> 00:10:14,600 Speaker 2: room to accept any trophies or whatever in the way 184 00:10:14,600 --> 00:10:15,960 Speaker 2: that you sort of noticed all of that. 185 00:10:16,520 --> 00:10:18,000 Speaker 3: So that's all I'm saying. 186 00:10:18,280 --> 00:10:20,840 Speaker 2: I just think when people don't want to hear something, 187 00:10:21,160 --> 00:10:23,920 Speaker 2: they call it an excuse. That doesn't mean it didn't happen. 188 00:10:23,960 --> 00:10:26,800 Speaker 2: That doesn't mean it's not real. Maybe we should all 189 00:10:26,800 --> 00:10:29,679 Speaker 2: be golfers a little bit more. If you've ever golfed before, 190 00:10:29,760 --> 00:10:32,000 Speaker 2: you know, damn well, there's an excuse for every shot. 191 00:10:33,120 --> 00:10:35,920 Speaker 2: There's never ever, ever like I just took a bad swing. 192 00:10:36,320 --> 00:10:39,400 Speaker 2: I've never heard of golfer say that it's the wind 193 00:10:39,480 --> 00:10:42,120 Speaker 2: and this and then that and my back and my whatever. 194 00:10:42,200 --> 00:10:45,160 Speaker 2: But anyway, let's back up a second and let everybody 195 00:10:45,200 --> 00:10:48,800 Speaker 2: hear kind of what took place. This is in the 196 00:10:48,840 --> 00:10:52,960 Speaker 2: semi final game on Thursday. Late in the game, South 197 00:10:52,960 --> 00:10:56,400 Speaker 2: Carolina beats up Yukon pretty good. This is right before 198 00:10:56,440 --> 00:11:01,200 Speaker 2: the fourth quarter, and Yukon head coach Gino Rim has 199 00:11:01,720 --> 00:11:05,719 Speaker 2: a sideline interview and this is what it sounded like, Well, coach. 200 00:11:05,480 --> 00:11:08,280 Speaker 1: A kind of wild turn of events. Very Strong's jersey 201 00:11:08,360 --> 00:11:09,280 Speaker 1: is split right. 202 00:11:09,160 --> 00:11:09,720 Speaker 5: Down the middle. 203 00:11:09,760 --> 00:11:11,440 Speaker 3: I saw you speaking to the reps about it. What 204 00:11:11,520 --> 00:11:12,960 Speaker 3: the message did you try to convey? 205 00:11:13,559 --> 00:11:13,719 Speaker 4: Right? 206 00:11:14,320 --> 00:11:16,720 Speaker 6: There were six pounds called that quarter, all of them 207 00:11:16,760 --> 00:11:19,720 Speaker 6: against us, and they've been beating it out of our 208 00:11:19,760 --> 00:11:20,360 Speaker 6: guys down there. 209 00:11:20,400 --> 00:11:21,120 Speaker 3: The entire game. 210 00:11:21,480 --> 00:11:23,880 Speaker 6: I'm not making excuses because we haven't been able to 211 00:11:23,880 --> 00:11:25,079 Speaker 6: make a shot, but. 212 00:11:25,120 --> 00:11:26,160 Speaker 3: This is ridiculous. 213 00:11:26,320 --> 00:11:29,079 Speaker 6: Their coach Ransom raves on the sideline and called for 214 00:11:29,440 --> 00:11:31,960 Speaker 6: the referee some names you don't want to hear. And 215 00:11:32,000 --> 00:11:33,880 Speaker 6: now we get six to zero and I got a 216 00:11:33,960 --> 00:11:36,240 Speaker 6: kid with a rip jersey and they go, I didn't 217 00:11:36,240 --> 00:11:36,520 Speaker 6: see it. 218 00:11:37,080 --> 00:11:39,640 Speaker 7: Come on, man, this is for the National Championship. 219 00:11:40,520 --> 00:11:43,040 Speaker 2: Okay, you know what else I just noticed and listening 220 00:11:43,080 --> 00:11:46,200 Speaker 2: to that, Gino was led to water, so he drank. 221 00:11:47,280 --> 00:11:52,440 Speaker 2: The question was about the reps, So I have actually 222 00:11:52,559 --> 00:11:56,079 Speaker 2: zero issue with that, except for the part where he 223 00:11:56,160 --> 00:11:59,640 Speaker 2: starts talking about what Dawn Stanley says to the reps. Yeah, 224 00:12:00,040 --> 00:12:03,240 Speaker 2: that's up to Don Staley, right, that's up to her, 225 00:12:04,160 --> 00:12:06,440 Speaker 2: and and and miss me with old words that you 226 00:12:06,480 --> 00:12:11,640 Speaker 2: don't even want to hear. You're all using all those words. 227 00:12:11,960 --> 00:12:15,319 Speaker 3: Exactly. So that's actually the only issue I have with it. 228 00:12:17,440 --> 00:12:21,640 Speaker 2: But then of course there's also as the game ends, 229 00:12:22,200 --> 00:12:26,640 Speaker 2: there's what Gino says to Don Staley as everyone is departing, 230 00:12:26,640 --> 00:12:28,559 Speaker 2: and we have the play by play of that as well. 231 00:12:28,840 --> 00:12:33,720 Speaker 8: Every one final inbound here the officials will hold the players. 232 00:12:33,760 --> 00:12:36,120 Speaker 8: Now Don and Gino getting into it a little bit 233 00:12:36,160 --> 00:12:39,600 Speaker 8: on the sideline as Gino has to be held back 234 00:12:40,679 --> 00:12:44,160 Speaker 8: and Don and Gino that's part of what makes this rivally. 235 00:12:46,240 --> 00:12:53,120 Speaker 1: Such a compelling one as they exchanged words of center cord. 236 00:12:55,040 --> 00:12:58,240 Speaker 3: So this is where this all ends up. 237 00:12:58,360 --> 00:13:01,040 Speaker 2: Coming up next, we'll let you what Don Staley had 238 00:13:01,080 --> 00:13:04,840 Speaker 2: to say about it, because for me, even Dan Hurley 239 00:13:04,880 --> 00:13:08,000 Speaker 2: coaching in the National Championship Game again tomorrow. 240 00:13:07,760 --> 00:13:12,000 Speaker 3: Night on the men's side is sort of a factor in. 241 00:13:12,040 --> 00:13:14,400 Speaker 2: All of this because I think what was at the 242 00:13:14,440 --> 00:13:17,560 Speaker 2: center of this issue to me is kind of an 243 00:13:17,600 --> 00:13:21,760 Speaker 2: expired opinion on the part of Geno Arima. Let's get 244 00:13:21,760 --> 00:13:24,680 Speaker 2: to that though in just a second. We're live in 245 00:13:24,720 --> 00:13:27,400 Speaker 2: the Fox Sports Radio studios.

In other words, if don Staley doesn't have 290 00:15:35,560 --> 00:15:41,040 Speaker 2: some sort of like connect and let's talk between her 291 00:15:41,480 --> 00:15:45,680 Speaker 2: and Gino Ariema before the game starts, is that disrespectful? 292 00:15:47,560 --> 00:15:49,240 Speaker 3: I don't find that to be disrespectful. 293 00:15:49,680 --> 00:15:56,000 Speaker 4: No, I don't fought people before and after games because 294 00:15:58,440 --> 00:16:02,120 Speaker 4: I can't tell you what they do or what they 295 00:16:02,200 --> 00:16:06,480 Speaker 4: need to do to get ready for a game, and 296 00:16:06,520 --> 00:16:09,600 Speaker 4: how they feel after a game. What's the process? When 297 00:16:09,600 --> 00:16:13,880 Speaker 4: I was dating my wife, and this is many moons ago, okay, 298 00:16:13,960 --> 00:16:19,440 Speaker 4: and I was still playing and after games, she had 299 00:16:19,480 --> 00:16:23,960 Speaker 4: to learn that even if we won, Like I remember 300 00:16:24,000 --> 00:16:26,520 Speaker 4: the first game she came, we won, and she was 301 00:16:26,600 --> 00:16:28,480 Speaker 4: just like, oh my god, this is amazing or this 302 00:16:28,600 --> 00:16:32,160 Speaker 4: and that, and I was just like huh huh, right, 303 00:16:32,240 --> 00:16:33,840 Speaker 4: Like we were walking out, she was trying to grab 304 00:16:33,880 --> 00:16:37,640 Speaker 4: my hand. I just what it took me to get 305 00:16:37,760 --> 00:16:42,800 Speaker 4: myself mentally prepared to play at that level for three 306 00:16:42,840 --> 00:16:46,760 Speaker 4: hours at a brutal sport. It took more than twenty 307 00:16:46,800 --> 00:16:47,920 Speaker 4: minutes to come down from. 308 00:16:49,600 --> 00:16:53,040 Speaker 2: But you're talking about something I have always been curious about, 309 00:16:54,000 --> 00:16:54,680 Speaker 2: which is. 310 00:16:56,120 --> 00:16:57,840 Speaker 3: And I know most fans don't know this. I'm not 311 00:16:57,880 --> 00:16:58,720 Speaker 3: even saying that I do. 312 00:16:58,840 --> 00:17:03,800 Speaker 2: But my perception of what it takes, especially in the NFL, 313 00:17:04,760 --> 00:17:10,399 Speaker 2: for a player to be that maniacal to be able 314 00:17:10,480 --> 00:17:14,600 Speaker 2: to handle what happens out there, and then we just 315 00:17:14,920 --> 00:17:17,560 Speaker 2: turn you right around and send. 316 00:17:17,320 --> 00:17:21,200 Speaker 4: You home or ask you some all right questions right 317 00:17:21,240 --> 00:17:21,920 Speaker 4: to poke at. 318 00:17:21,840 --> 00:17:24,119 Speaker 2: It, or send you to a podium, or send you 319 00:17:24,160 --> 00:17:27,480 Speaker 2: to a car, to send you to a restaurant or whatever. 320 00:17:28,400 --> 00:17:31,440 Speaker 4: Like yes, it's. 321 00:17:31,320 --> 00:17:33,000 Speaker 3: Like I'm not here. 322 00:17:33,040 --> 00:17:35,639 Speaker 2: I am again, like Geno, I'm not making excuses, but 323 00:17:35,800 --> 00:17:39,359 Speaker 2: I get it. Like that's that is difficult to ask 324 00:17:39,880 --> 00:17:42,920 Speaker 2: a human being to oscillate that far. 325 00:17:43,160 --> 00:17:44,880 Speaker 4: It's one of the toughest things to do, and it's 326 00:17:44,880 --> 00:17:47,520 Speaker 4: one of the hardest lessons as an athlete to learn. 327 00:17:48,560 --> 00:17:50,639 Speaker 4: Number One, we all have different backgrounds, we all come 328 00:17:50,680 --> 00:17:53,199 Speaker 4: from a different place, we all handle things and prepare 329 00:17:53,280 --> 00:17:55,399 Speaker 4: and do all those things different. So to have a 330 00:17:55,440 --> 00:17:58,639 Speaker 4: blanket this is how it's supposed to go. Yeah, it's not. 331 00:17:58,680 --> 00:18:02,120 Speaker 4: It's that there's no uniformity to that, dude. No one 332 00:18:02,160 --> 00:18:05,040 Speaker 4: can tell you how to lose or how to win 333 00:18:05,280 --> 00:18:08,879 Speaker 4: like it's it's an individual thing. As you get older 334 00:18:08,880 --> 00:18:10,960 Speaker 4: and as you learn and you play longer, you learn 335 00:18:11,040 --> 00:18:14,240 Speaker 4: certain things. Right, You learn how to take a breath 336 00:18:14,280 --> 00:18:16,840 Speaker 4: before you go to the podum. You learn how to 337 00:18:16,960 --> 00:18:19,320 Speaker 4: give yourself extra time in the locker room before you 338 00:18:19,359 --> 00:18:21,960 Speaker 4: come out and address your family. So instead of coming 339 00:18:21,960 --> 00:18:25,440 Speaker 4: out in thirty minutes, now I'm coming out in an 340 00:18:25,480 --> 00:18:30,000 Speaker 4: hour hour, twenty minutes.

And those are 343 00:18:39,240 --> 00:18:42,879 Speaker 4: the things you learn as you do this more and more. 344 00:18:43,359 --> 00:18:46,639 Speaker 4: There's no handbook. There's no one telling you how to 345 00:18:46,720 --> 00:18:50,520 Speaker 4: do these things. So when you hear players at podiums 346 00:18:50,840 --> 00:18:55,080 Speaker 4: that we love the sound bite and blast everywhere, and 347 00:18:55,119 --> 00:18:59,600 Speaker 4: there's a reporter who they specialize in this.

Well, I'm 351 00:19:10,760 --> 00:19:13,080 Speaker 4: just a journalist. I'm just trying to ask the tough questions. 352 00:19:13,280 --> 00:19:16,640 Speaker 4: That's why they will ask you the same question four 353 00:19:16,720 --> 00:19:17,840 Speaker 4: or five different times. 354 00:19:18,280 --> 00:19:21,080 Speaker 2: Although sometimes and I'm like, I'll pick up here and 355 00:19:21,119 --> 00:19:24,760 Speaker 2: I know you get this, Like sometimes it can both 356 00:19:24,880 --> 00:19:27,960 Speaker 2: be the right question to ask and sup and super 357 00:19:27,960 --> 00:19:29,320 Speaker 2: frustrating and annoying. 358 00:19:29,000 --> 00:19:29,640 Speaker 4: At the same time. 359 00:19:29,720 --> 00:19:29,880 Speaker 3: Yeah. 360 00:19:29,880 --> 00:19:34,840 Speaker 4: Absolutely, I mean more times than not, that's the case. Yeah, correct, correct, 361 00:19:34,840 --> 00:19:37,720 Speaker 4: that's why. And now it becomes a problem when you 362 00:19:37,760 --> 00:19:39,199 Speaker 4: get that you get an answer, but it's not an 363 00:19:39,240 --> 00:19:41,520 Speaker 4: answer you want as a reporter, right, and then you 364 00:19:41,560 --> 00:19:45,240 Speaker 4: ask it again, and then you ask it again. Now 365 00:19:45,280 --> 00:19:51,480 Speaker 4: it becomes oh, okay, non this disrespectful. Right, So now 366 00:19:51,560 --> 00:19:53,680 Speaker 4: now it becomes something else. 367 00:19:53,920 --> 00:19:57,520 Speaker 2: And everybody's trying to either try everybody in the room 368 00:19:57,800 --> 00:20:01,840 Speaker 2: is trying to effectively do their job. 369 00:20:02,920 --> 00:20:07,840 Speaker 3: Yes, and some jobs fight with other jobs, like do 370 00:20:07,840 --> 00:20:08,560 Speaker 3: you know what I mean. 371 00:20:08,520 --> 00:20:12,480 Speaker 2: Yeah, delivery driver is trying to go somewhere on time 372 00:20:12,560 --> 00:20:17,080 Speaker 2: and the construction crew is causing a delay.

That weight 421 00:23:16,640 --> 00:23:20,359 Speaker 7: is called actually the cooling off period, right, And there's 422 00:23:20,400 --> 00:23:22,879 Speaker 7: a reason for that. Sometimes it's so ballplayers can go 423 00:23:22,920 --> 00:23:24,639 Speaker 7: hide in the showers and not speak to you.

He finished third in Cy 509 00:27:52,240 --> 00:27:55,480 Speaker 7: Young voting last year. The Angels in eleven innings beat 510 00:27:55,520 --> 00:27:58,200 Speaker 7: Seattle eight to seven. And guys, if you didn't hear this, 511 00:27:58,320 --> 00:28:00,000 Speaker 7: we played the cut of it on the show line 512 00:28:00,040 --> 00:28:03,560 Speaker 7: last night after it happened. There is an a Rosarina 513 00:28:03,640 --> 00:28:06,520 Speaker 7: tight player that the Angels had been waiting to be good. 514 00:28:06,920 --> 00:28:10,320 Speaker 7: One of their top prospects actually became a starter last season. 515 00:28:10,400 --> 00:28:13,560 Speaker 7: Joe Adell, their right fielder. Early in the game, robbed 516 00:28:13,560 --> 00:28:15,800 Speaker 7: a home run leaping above the yellow line at the 517 00:28:15,880 --> 00:28:18,840 Speaker 7: right field wall. And then the eighth inning a ball 518 00:28:18,920 --> 00:28:21,439 Speaker 7: to deep right and he did the same thing, leaping 519 00:28:21,520 --> 00:28:24,359 Speaker 7: up above the yellow line to rob another homer, and 520 00:28:24,400 --> 00:28:27,360 Speaker 7: then in the ninth, with his team still up one 521 00:28:27,480 --> 00:28:31,080 Speaker 7: nothing on a leadoff homer in the first, it remained 522 00:28:31,119 --> 00:28:33,560 Speaker 7: one nothing to the top of the ninth, Seattle hits 523 00:28:33,560 --> 00:28:36,439 Speaker 7: it deep to right. He leaps at the low wall 524 00:28:36,520 --> 00:28:39,680 Speaker 7: by the foul pole, makes the catch and goes into 525 00:28:39,720 --> 00:28:43,680 Speaker 7: the crowd, robbing a third home run in one game. 526 00:28:43,840 --> 00:28:48,760 Speaker 7: The stat came out that last year league wide, Fernando 527 00:28:48,800 --> 00:28:51,520 Speaker 7: Tatist Junior or the Padres, robbed four home runs for 528 00:28:51,600 --> 00:28:55,080 Speaker 7: the whole season, that tied for the most such things 529 00:28:55,160 --> 00:28:57,680 Speaker 7: in the league, in all of the majors, this guy 530 00:28:57,760 --> 00:29:01,640 Speaker 7: did it three times against It's one team, one game, 531 00:29:02,160 --> 00:29:02,680 Speaker 7: one night. 532 00:29:02,880 --> 00:29:09,080 Speaker 2: Back to you silly question about those plays, Steve and apram, 533 00:29:09,120 --> 00:29:11,000 Speaker 2: I would love to hear from you on both of these. 534 00:29:11,320 --> 00:29:13,000 Speaker 2: First of all, if you haven't been online, if you 535 00:29:13,080 --> 00:29:16,720 Speaker 2: haven't seen the picture that somebody in the right field 536 00:29:16,760 --> 00:29:20,640 Speaker 2: seats right behind Jodel, the picture that somebody got of 537 00:29:20,760 --> 00:29:24,600 Speaker 2: him standing in the stands holding up the ball and 538 00:29:24,720 --> 00:29:27,000 Speaker 2: next to all of the fans holding their hands up. 539 00:29:27,000 --> 00:29:28,920 Speaker 3: It's one of the greatest sports pictures I've ever seen. 540 00:29:29,000 --> 00:29:34,080 Speaker 2: But how do you all feel about I catch the 541 00:29:34,080 --> 00:29:37,120 Speaker 2: ball when I'm in the air, then I go over 542 00:29:37,160 --> 00:29:37,720 Speaker 2: the fence. 543 00:29:38,560 --> 00:29:42,120 Speaker 3: The ball is over the fence, and it's not a homer. 544 00:29:42,440 --> 00:29:45,240 Speaker 7: This is the video review that they had, and I thought, 545 00:29:45,320 --> 00:29:47,440 Speaker 7: after review, Oh, they're not going to count this because 546 00:29:47,440 --> 00:29:50,160 Speaker 7: he landed in row one. He didn't bring it back 547 00:29:50,200 --> 00:29:54,160 Speaker 7: in play. And I think the reasoning is at the 548 00:29:54,160 --> 00:29:58,400 Speaker 7: New York replay office that he had control of the 549 00:29:58,440 --> 00:30:01,719 Speaker 7: ball in the field of play and hadn't crossed over it. 550 00:30:01,760 --> 00:30:02,840 Speaker 7: That's my only guess. 551 00:30:03,000 --> 00:30:04,880 Speaker 2: So I don't know the rule that well. But his 552 00:30:05,080 --> 00:30:07,560 Speaker 2: arm is way over the fence when he catches that ball. 553 00:30:07,600 --> 00:30:10,640 Speaker 2: But I sort of liking it more too. Let's say, 554 00:30:10,880 --> 00:30:13,920 Speaker 2: like we're watching basketball right now, we're watching Lakers and MAVs. 555 00:30:14,200 --> 00:30:16,160 Speaker 2: If the ball is going out of bounds and you 556 00:30:16,480 --> 00:30:21,720 Speaker 2: jump from him bounds and possess the ball, but then 557 00:30:21,800 --> 00:30:23,040 Speaker 2: you don't throw it back. 558 00:30:22,920 --> 00:30:23,600 Speaker 4: In and it's right. 559 00:30:23,600 --> 00:30:26,000 Speaker 7: It's like the old timeouts that Rodman used to take, 560 00:30:26,160 --> 00:30:28,440 Speaker 7: and then they eventually out lied that before. 561 00:30:29,840 --> 00:30:31,760 Speaker 3: You out of bounds. If you're holding the ball out 562 00:30:31,800 --> 00:30:33,040 Speaker 3: of bounds, then you're out of bound. 563 00:30:33,160 --> 00:30:35,720 Speaker 7: I'll but remember the fame Derek Jeter catch where he 564 00:30:35,800 --> 00:30:38,880 Speaker 7: ran all the way from short step to the you know, 565 00:30:39,240 --> 00:30:41,880 Speaker 7: way down the third base line seats and made the 566 00:30:41,960 --> 00:30:45,040 Speaker 7: catch and then essentially broke his nose into one of 567 00:30:45,040 --> 00:30:47,720 Speaker 7: the seats, flying into the stands. That was a catch. 568 00:30:47,720 --> 00:30:49,360 Speaker 7: He didn't land in the field to play. 569 00:30:49,280 --> 00:30:52,520 Speaker 2: Correct, But also like, at no point are those balls 570 00:30:52,520 --> 00:30:55,120 Speaker 2: even in the field of play, Like, it wouldn't have 571 00:30:55,160 --> 00:30:57,320 Speaker 2: been a hit if you didn't catch it, I guess 572 00:30:57,480 --> 00:31:00,920 Speaker 2: would be there. Again, I don't even necessarily I don't 573 00:31:00,920 --> 00:31:02,800 Speaker 2: have a problem with it. I just think it's interesting 574 00:31:02,920 --> 00:31:06,440 Speaker 2: in any other sport, Like again, football player back in 575 00:31:06,520 --> 00:31:09,120 Speaker 2: the end zone, leaps, catches, comes down out of bounds. 576 00:31:09,160 --> 00:31:09,920 Speaker 3: You're at the bounds. 577 00:31:10,560 --> 00:31:12,000 Speaker 7: Yeah, they used to have the force out. 578 00:31:12,560 --> 00:31:16,120 Speaker 3: Yeah, like you you are where you land with the ball. 579 00:31:16,200 --> 00:31:16,760 Speaker 3: But not in. 580 00:31:16,720 --> 00:31:22,880 Speaker 7: Baseball, assuming it's a catch like last night. Right, he 581 00:31:22,960 --> 00:31:25,200 Speaker 7: wasn't actually in the first row when he made. 582 00:31:25,000 --> 00:31:27,440 Speaker 3: The catch, But he wasn't on the ground either. 583 00:31:27,600 --> 00:31:28,400 Speaker 7: No, he was nuts. 584 00:31:28,840 --> 00:31:30,320 Speaker 4: He und the ball is out. 585 00:31:30,640 --> 00:31:32,800 Speaker 7: He was actually on top of that little you know 586 00:31:32,800 --> 00:31:35,200 Speaker 7: how there's a low wall down the line that the 587 00:31:35,240 --> 00:31:36,760 Speaker 7: Dodgers and Angels. 588 00:31:36,280 --> 00:31:40,000 Speaker 4: Have climb the gate, climb up the wall, sit in 589 00:31:40,000 --> 00:31:41,320 Speaker 4: the stands. I like it. 590 00:31:41,960 --> 00:31:44,400 Speaker 7: You're not that far off. I have seen a clip 591 00:31:44,440 --> 00:31:48,000 Speaker 7: of a Japanese ball game where the outfielder literally climbed 592 00:31:48,120 --> 00:31:50,560 Speaker 7: up the wall and stood on top of the wall 593 00:31:50,640 --> 00:31:51,440 Speaker 7: to make the catch. 594 00:31:51,680 --> 00:31:55,360 Speaker 4: Man, if you could athletically, if you can accomplish that, 595 00:31:55,600 --> 00:31:56,720 Speaker 4: you should be rewarded. 596 00:31:56,840 --> 00:31:58,640 Speaker 2: I mean there are a number of stadiums where you 597 00:31:58,680 --> 00:32:00,880 Speaker 2: could do that. You could climb him into the stands 598 00:32:01,080 --> 00:32:01,920 Speaker 2: to the second row. 599 00:32:02,120 --> 00:32:05,880 Speaker 4: I'm sitting right next to the hot dog and pretzel, 600 00:32:06,040 --> 00:32:06,520 Speaker 4: and I'm. 601 00:32:07,680 --> 00:32:11,000 Speaker 2: Right who was it? That was it Mark Sanchez? Who 602 00:32:11,200 --> 00:32:13,960 Speaker 2: ate the hot dog on the sidelines? Mark Sanchez? 603 00:32:13,960 --> 00:32:15,120 Speaker 4: We all did he just get caught? 604 00:32:15,360 --> 00:32:16,400 Speaker 3: See? Well, there you go. 605 00:32:16,880 --> 00:32:19,360 Speaker 2: Can you get to the second row and start eating 606 00:32:19,400 --> 00:32:21,600 Speaker 2: a hot dog prior to catching the ball? 607 00:32:21,680 --> 00:32:24,160 Speaker 7: Don Mattingly, when he was first baseman went over for 608 00:32:24,200 --> 00:32:27,000 Speaker 7: a foul ball and stole a handful of a kid's 609 00:32:27,000 --> 00:32:29,080 Speaker 7: popcorn and then then went back to first place. 610 00:32:29,400 --> 00:32:31,320 Speaker 2: Can you imagine if you did that today? They won't 611 00:32:31,360 --> 00:32:33,920 Speaker 2: even let you keep your own foul balls anymore. You 612 00:32:34,000 --> 00:32:36,120 Speaker 2: have to give everything, do it? No, it is true. 613 00:32:36,320 --> 00:32:39,760 Speaker 2: You if you catch a foul ball as a grown 614 00:32:39,960 --> 00:32:43,280 Speaker 2: ass man in twenty twenty six, and there are any 615 00:32:43,440 --> 00:32:45,960 Speaker 2: children near you, look, and you don't give it to them. 616 00:32:47,000 --> 00:32:48,520 Speaker 4: No, no, no, no, you do have to give it. 617 00:32:48,840 --> 00:32:53,600 Speaker 10: They will boo you now, yes, exactly, yes, you cannot 618 00:32:53,760 --> 00:32:55,000 Speaker 10: keep that ball anymore. 619 00:32:55,120 --> 00:32:56,880 Speaker 4: That my fault. The kid doesn't have the dicks there 620 00:32:56,920 --> 00:32:57,320 Speaker 4: at each. 621 00:32:59,480 --> 00:33:01,880 Speaker 7: By the way, updating the Lakers that you referenced to, 622 00:33:02,040 --> 00:33:05,520 Speaker 7: Cooper Flag now twenty six points in the first half. 623 00:33:05,720 --> 00:33:10,080 Speaker 2: Okay, he had nineteen in the first but yeah, he's 624 00:33:10,160 --> 00:33:11,640 Speaker 2: on fifty point watches. 625 00:33:11,720 --> 00:33:14,120 Speaker 7: This is the Laker team that we saw all season 626 00:33:14,200 --> 00:33:16,240 Speaker 7: until about a month ago. Right, It's gonna be almost 627 00:33:16,240 --> 00:33:18,360 Speaker 7: seventy points in the first half for Dallas, So the 628 00:33:18,400 --> 00:33:20,400 Speaker 7: Lakers are going to feel like, hey, we're in this game. 629 00:33:20,440 --> 00:33:23,040 Speaker 7: It's only abound sixty seven to sixty one. You can't 630 00:33:23,040 --> 00:33:24,720 Speaker 7: stop them. The game is over. 631 00:33:25,600 --> 00:33:27,400 Speaker 4: No, you can't stop them. But I mean when you 632 00:33:27,480 --> 00:33:33,480 Speaker 4: lose what essentially eighty points out of your starting lineup, 633 00:33:33,520 --> 00:33:34,760 Speaker 4: thirty points, I mean. 634 00:33:34,680 --> 00:33:37,200 Speaker 7: Sixty from Luca another twenty from Austin. 635 00:33:36,920 --> 00:33:38,560 Speaker 4: Reeeds, and I mean, what are you going to do 636 00:33:38,840 --> 00:33:40,920 Speaker 4: so that did? You have to just keep it close? 637 00:33:41,960 --> 00:33:44,240 Speaker 4: Then hope Lebron can do something specially. 638 00:33:43,840 --> 00:33:46,080 Speaker 7: By the way, with scoring. I think it was Miami 639 00:33:46,160 --> 00:33:48,880 Speaker 7: last night they scored over one hundred and fifty and 640 00:33:48,960 --> 00:33:51,440 Speaker 7: Haimi Hawkes had a great game over thirty off the 641 00:33:51,440 --> 00:33:54,040 Speaker 7: bench and immediately got on a plane and made it 642 00:33:54,080 --> 00:33:57,280 Speaker 7: to Phoenix in time to see his sister have the 643 00:33:57,320 --> 00:33:59,680 Speaker 7: game of her life. Love it winning the championship. 644 00:33:59,720 --> 00:34:04,120 Speaker 2: That's incredible and I'm surprised he didn't ask for load management. 645 00:34:05,520 --> 00:34:08,759 Speaker 7: But there was a picture today the Marlins used their 646 00:34:08,800 --> 00:34:11,200 Speaker 7: closer in the first inning because he was going on 647 00:34:11,280 --> 00:34:12,560 Speaker 7: paternity leave this week. 648 00:34:12,680 --> 00:34:15,200 Speaker 3: Love that. Yeah, we get live it in where you 649 00:34:15,239 --> 00:34:16,600 Speaker 3: can fit it in. Man, you know. 650 00:34:16,840 --> 00:34:18,880 Speaker 7: And there was a rain delay, they said can you 651 00:34:19,040 --> 00:34:21,560 Speaker 7: hang out? And still tested the first inning. 652 00:34:21,800 --> 00:34:23,720 Speaker 4: That brain delays all over the league. 653 00:34:23,760 --> 00:34:25,680 Speaker 7: Man, I was Dodgers yank. 654 00:34:25,840 --> 00:34:29,120 Speaker 4: I missed the end of the Dodgers game because you know, 655 00:34:29,160 --> 00:34:30,160 Speaker 4: I tape all the games. 656 00:34:30,440 --> 00:34:32,719 Speaker 7: It didn't keep taping, no, I mean I. 657 00:34:32,680 --> 00:34:36,200 Speaker 4: Even taped the after show and it still ran out. 658 00:34:36,280 --> 00:34:37,680 Speaker 7: So it was under two hours. 659 00:34:37,800 --> 00:34:41,920 Speaker 4: Yes. When I when I well, my DVR ended, it 660 00:34:42,320 --> 00:34:47,560 Speaker 4: was still six to three, and then I looked at 661 00:34:47,600 --> 00:34:48,640 Speaker 4: the score. I said, well all. 662 00:34:48,600 --> 00:34:51,760 Speaker 7: Right, then okay, Dodgers eight six Final and the Yankees 663 00:34:51,800 --> 00:34:53,680 Speaker 7: had three and a half hour rain delay at the 664 00:34:53,680 --> 00:34:56,759 Speaker 7: start and just finished Miami beat him seven to six. 665 00:34:57,040 --> 00:35:00,319 Speaker 2: I took my wife out to the Giants Mets game today. 666 00:35:00,360 --> 00:35:03,960 Speaker 2: It was seventy eight degree, so they didn't win, but 667 00:35:04,000 --> 00:35:06,359 Speaker 2: still it was seventy eight degrees this year. 668 00:35:06,800 --> 00:35:07,040 Speaker 3: Yeah. 669 00:35:07,120 --> 00:35:10,799 Speaker 2: So we're coming you Alive and the Fox Sports Radio studios, 670 00:35:11,200 --> 00:35:13,280 Speaker 2: and coming up next we should talk about the Lakers. 671 00:35:13,280 --> 00:35:14,239 Speaker 3: That's what we should talk about it. 672 00:35:14,280 --> 00:35:16,359 Speaker 4: Okay, her, let's go do that, all right. 673 00:35:16,360 --> 00:35:17,319 Speaker 3: I Fox Sports Radio. 674 00:35:20,280 --> 00:35:22,480 Speaker 1: You don't listening to Fox Sports Radio. 675 00:35:22,760 --> 00:35:27,239 Speaker 2: Radio sitting here in these Fox Sports Radio studios.

We 689 00:36:22,080 --> 00:36:24,520 Speaker 4: understand Luca is gonna carry the brunner of the load 690 00:36:24,520 --> 00:36:29,080 Speaker 4: in the first half, uh Lebron James being a facilitator 691 00:36:30,239 --> 00:36:33,720 Speaker 4: running the floor, fitting right into that. Austin Reeves comes 692 00:36:33,760 --> 00:36:39,480 Speaker 4: in when Luca sits uh and and is now the facility. 693 00:36:39,480 --> 00:36:42,240 Speaker 4: It was working everything. Jackson Hayes was playing well, even 694 00:36:42,560 --> 00:36:45,840 Speaker 4: DeAndre Ayden was playing well. And I can't you know, 695 00:36:46,160 --> 00:36:53,240 Speaker 4: I'm just like with little hands and then that, okay, 696 00:36:53,239 --> 00:36:56,320 Speaker 4: see game happened, and from the jump, like the national 697 00:36:56,360 --> 00:36:59,640 Speaker 4: championship game for the for women today UH and the 698 00:37:00,760 --> 00:37:05,200 Speaker 4: final four for Arizona Michigan yesterday, from the jump, the 699 00:37:05,320 --> 00:37:10,080 Speaker 4: open hand slapped to the lips was was was loud 700 00:37:10,360 --> 00:37:14,400 Speaker 4: and violent and they couldn't. They couldn't. They turned the 701 00:37:14,440 --> 00:37:19,000 Speaker 4: ball over five of the first seven possessions. Not gonna 702 00:37:19,000 --> 00:37:22,719 Speaker 4: do it against the second highest rated defensive team in 703 00:37:22,760 --> 00:37:27,879 Speaker 4: the league. Not not not gonna do it, and proceeded 704 00:37:27,920 --> 00:37:32,960 Speaker 4: to get just pummeled all the way to where Luca 705 00:37:33,280 --> 00:37:39,359 Speaker 4: uh strains his hamstring and then Austin Reeves Uh hurts 706 00:37:39,400 --> 00:37:43,920 Speaker 4: his oblique for him and Mookie Betts just hanging out. 707 00:37:44,239 --> 00:37:46,399 Speaker 3: Four to six probably for both of them. 708 00:37:46,760 --> 00:37:48,560 Speaker 4: Yeah, that sounds about right, and. 709 00:37:48,440 --> 00:37:53,520 Speaker 2: That puts them in a situation where they're probably gonna 710 00:37:53,520 --> 00:37:57,880 Speaker 2: have to at least UH win a series and a 711 00:37:57,960 --> 00:38:01,319 Speaker 2: half without him, maybe maybe even series without him, which 712 00:38:01,360 --> 00:38:02,280 Speaker 2: feels far fetched. 713 00:38:02,840 --> 00:38:10,799 Speaker 4: Yeah, yes, as they're currently Yes, yes, and so, my man, 714 00:38:11,320 --> 00:38:15,160 Speaker 4: look what we've learned in these playoffs. In any playoffs, 715 00:38:15,200 --> 00:38:20,680 Speaker 4: any league, any professional sports, the war of attrition is 716 00:38:20,719 --> 00:38:23,360 Speaker 4: the one you must win. The war of attrition is 717 00:38:23,360 --> 00:38:25,919 Speaker 4: the one you must win. You must be healthy going 718 00:38:25,960 --> 00:38:29,920 Speaker 4: into the playoffs, going uh into the tournament. All of 719 00:38:29,960 --> 00:38:33,000 Speaker 4: these things are a must. How many times have we 720 00:38:33,040 --> 00:38:38,839 Speaker 4: seen as Golden State? Right, you lose KD, you lose 721 00:38:38,880 --> 00:38:41,920 Speaker 4: the series. That's just one starter. 722 00:38:42,280 --> 00:38:44,399 Speaker 3: Let me do you remember off the top of your head, 723 00:38:45,560 --> 00:38:48,120 Speaker 3: what was the quarter? What was the score? 724 00:38:49,960 --> 00:38:53,760 Speaker 4: It was third quarter. They were down by thirty. Shouldn't 725 00:38:53,760 --> 00:38:56,120 Speaker 4: have been in the game. I talk that, I get it, 726 00:38:56,160 --> 00:38:58,000 Speaker 4: but you should have chalked that one up. I gotta 727 00:38:58,040 --> 00:39:01,400 Speaker 4: remember he strained it in, had issues in the first half. 728 00:39:01,440 --> 00:39:04,080 Speaker 4: I hear you with that knowledge. Hey man, come over 729 00:39:04,080 --> 00:39:07,520 Speaker 4: here and hang back. Well, let me going to come 730 00:39:07,560 --> 00:39:08,239 Speaker 4: back in this one. 731 00:39:08,360 --> 00:39:10,760 Speaker 3: I don't disagree with you at all. 732 00:39:11,560 --> 00:39:16,000 Speaker 2: However, I want to point out the position in which 733 00:39:16,080 --> 00:39:20,120 Speaker 2: we put teams when because what you're basically saying is 734 00:39:21,560 --> 00:39:24,680 Speaker 2: you need to have a better eye on being healthy 735 00:39:24,719 --> 00:39:27,880 Speaker 2: for the playoffs. And an NBA team might respond to 736 00:39:27,880 --> 00:39:31,040 Speaker 2: you and say, that's precisely why we do load management 737 00:39:31,080 --> 00:39:33,799 Speaker 2: throughout the year, and fans hate that. 738 00:39:34,360 --> 00:39:36,439 Speaker 4: Yeah, I get that. You load manage when the game 739 00:39:36,480 --> 00:39:39,120 Speaker 4: is out of hand either way. Okay, that's when you 740 00:39:39,120 --> 00:39:41,480 Speaker 4: load manage. Yeah, let him play twenty six minutes a game. 741 00:39:41,719 --> 00:39:44,640 Speaker 4: If you're getting blown beaten by forty is at one 742 00:39:44,680 --> 00:39:48,640 Speaker 4: point are you up by forty let him play twenty 743 00:39:48,640 --> 00:39:51,520 Speaker 4: six minutes a game? Yeah, And I think that's what Okay, 744 00:39:51,719 --> 00:39:55,320 Speaker 4: see did the best early on No one knownhing the 745 00:39:55,360 --> 00:39:59,040 Speaker 4: start is played in the fourth quarter. That's how bad 746 00:39:59,040 --> 00:39:59,759 Speaker 4: they were beating team. 747 00:39:59,800 --> 00:40:02,560 Speaker 2: Yeah, well, OKC, he's got an ability to still play 748 00:40:02,560 --> 00:40:03,600 Speaker 2: at a really high lighted. 749 00:40:03,440 --> 00:40:04,879 Speaker 4: Do and they've got a lot of young, hungry guys 750 00:40:05,080 --> 00:40:06,160 Speaker 4: who are waiting their turn. 751 00:40:06,080 --> 00:40:07,040 Speaker 3: When they're missing people. 752 00:40:07,560 --> 00:40:07,759 Speaker 4: You know. 753 00:40:07,920 --> 00:40:09,319 Speaker 3: Not a lot of teams have that. 754 00:40:09,560 --> 00:40:11,040 Speaker 4: Yeah, And it's not a lot of teams that can 755 00:40:11,080 --> 00:40:14,800 Speaker 4: survive two all star caliber players out of the lineup 756 00:40:14,880 --> 00:40:15,600 Speaker 4: in the poves. 757 00:40:15,680 --> 00:40:18,120 Speaker 3: No, no, no, no, no, no, they're in trouble. 758 00:40:18,640 --> 00:40:22,400 Speaker 4: They are in trouble as much as I hate you know. 759 00:40:22,440 --> 00:40:25,680 Speaker 4: First of all, congratulations on winning fifty games yep again, 760 00:40:25,760 --> 00:40:28,720 Speaker 4: back to back, yep. Right. Tough to do in this league. 761 00:40:29,280 --> 00:40:31,680 Speaker 4: Tough to do. That's why it's only about four teams 762 00:40:31,680 --> 00:40:33,479 Speaker 4: that have fifty wins or more. 763 00:40:34,080 --> 00:40:37,080 Speaker 2: We can we can get going on this a little 764 00:40:37,080 --> 00:40:39,640 Speaker 2: bit more coming up next in three things on Fox 765 00:40:39,640 --> 00:40:40,320 Speaker 2: Sports Radio. 766 00:40:41,480 --> 00:40:43,640 Speaker 1: Don't listening to Fox Sports Radio. 767 00:40:43,880 --> 00:40:47,040 Speaker 2: Radio well into the night. We go right here live 768 00:40:47,040 --> 00:40:49,520 Speaker 2: in these Fox Sports Radio studios. You've been hearing us 769 00:40:49,560 --> 00:40:52,800 Speaker 2: talk about it, the guys talking about it, Steve talking 770 00:40:52,840 --> 00:40:54,400 Speaker 2: about the Lakers and the Mavericks. 771 00:40:54,480 --> 00:40:57,520 Speaker 3: Right now. The Warriors will play a little. 772 00:40:57,280 --> 00:40:59,840 Speaker 2: Bit later on the night against the Houston Rockets. Is 773 00:40:59,840 --> 00:41:01,440 Speaker 2: that a big game? No, it's not a big game. 774 00:41:01,480 --> 00:41:04,960 Speaker 2: It's just a big player. Steph Curry is going to return, 775 00:41:05,440 --> 00:41:09,080 Speaker 2: and now Lebron has to get back used to the 776 00:41:09,239 --> 00:41:13,839 Speaker 2: a chair on his own basketball team, even though that's 777 00:41:13,960 --> 00:41:17,879 Speaker 2: probably not where he wants to be right now. And 778 00:41:17,920 --> 00:41:20,239 Speaker 2: so we'll see if the Lakers can even handle the 779 00:41:20,360 --> 00:41:23,640 Speaker 2: likes of the Dallas Mavericks. Supposed to be a game, 780 00:41:24,040 --> 00:41:26,759 Speaker 2: I'm sure when they put this on the schedule, it's 781 00:41:26,920 --> 00:41:32,160 Speaker 2: Luca back to Dallas and instead, this is what we're 782 00:41:32,200 --> 00:41:34,439 Speaker 2: looking at. We're looking at a forty one year old 783 00:41:34,480 --> 00:41:37,719 Speaker 2: basketball player trying to take over the a chair and 784 00:41:38,080 --> 00:41:41,759 Speaker 2: in a game that for the home team means very 785 00:41:41,880 --> 00:41:47,879 Speaker 2: very little. Yeah, but Cooper Flag is good. 786 00:41:48,040 --> 00:41:53,320 Speaker 4: No, he's bald. Yeah, it's fun to solidify his Rookie 787 00:41:53,360 --> 00:41:56,479 Speaker 4: of the Year award against US right now. 788 00:41:56,600 --> 00:41:58,319 Speaker 3: Yeah, and I think he might do it. 789 00:41:58,920 --> 00:42:02,080 Speaker 2: So anyway, six o clock Pacific, nine o'clock in the East. 790 00:42:02,120 --> 00:42:05,000 Speaker 2: We do it just about every Sunday. Our top three 791 00:42:05,000 --> 00:42:08,320 Speaker 2: observations of the week. That was, let's do it three things. 792 00:42:08,640 --> 00:42:12,200 Speaker 2: Here we go, and the rule is I go first 793 00:42:12,200 --> 00:42:16,680 Speaker 2: so that Ephraim can go last. Here's my observation number one. Now, 794 00:42:16,719 --> 00:42:19,760 Speaker 2: I understand why the Rams wanted aj Brown. 795 00:42:20,400 --> 00:42:22,600 Speaker 3: Now I get it. I didn't. I didn't. 796 00:42:22,640 --> 00:42:24,680 Speaker 2: I didn't get it when that first came out. I'm like, 797 00:42:24,760 --> 00:42:28,879 Speaker 2: hold on a second. So Demante Adams was really good 798 00:42:28,960 --> 00:42:30,839 Speaker 2: last year, and I get that he's getting older, but 799 00:42:30,880 --> 00:42:36,000 Speaker 2: he is still really good and very professional football player. 800 00:42:36,920 --> 00:42:40,560 Speaker 2: And then meantime, Pooka Nakula might be he's right there, 801 00:42:40,640 --> 00:42:43,760 Speaker 2: top two or three in the sport and is about 802 00:42:43,760 --> 00:42:48,680 Speaker 2: to get this hefty, massive extension and be the number one. 803 00:42:48,800 --> 00:42:51,560 Speaker 3: Why would the Rams want A J. Brown? 804 00:42:52,719 --> 00:42:56,880 Speaker 2: Now I get it, because Pokin Nakua is accused of 805 00:42:57,120 --> 00:43:02,319 Speaker 2: biting someone, Pooka Nakua has made anti Semitic remarks, and 806 00:43:02,360 --> 00:43:07,600 Speaker 2: now Pooka Nicoa is in rehab and that confirmed by 807 00:43:07,640 --> 00:43:11,440 Speaker 2: his agent this week. I'm not like, I'm rooting for 808 00:43:11,560 --> 00:43:13,600 Speaker 2: the guy. I hope it comes out on the other 809 00:43:13,640 --> 00:43:16,440 Speaker 2: side of this. I don't know exactly what this means 810 00:43:17,040 --> 00:43:21,160 Speaker 2: going forward and certainly for the near term future, uh 811 00:43:21,560 --> 00:43:23,920 Speaker 2: for his time with the Los Angeles Rams, but this 812 00:43:24,040 --> 00:43:29,440 Speaker 2: is clearly a concern because that, in my opinion, must 813 00:43:29,480 --> 00:43:32,000 Speaker 2: be why they were poking around with AJ Brown. 814 00:43:32,880 --> 00:43:37,120 Speaker 4: Yeah. It's funny, how you know. You hear things and 815 00:43:37,160 --> 00:43:40,360 Speaker 4: then you scratch your head, and then you get a 816 00:43:40,400 --> 00:43:42,880 Speaker 4: little bit more information a little bit later, and then 817 00:43:42,920 --> 00:43:48,520 Speaker 4: you realize, hell, okay, all right, Well you hear your 818 00:43:48,520 --> 00:43:50,399 Speaker 4: friends are getting a divorce, and you're like, oh my god, 819 00:43:50,440 --> 00:43:53,560 Speaker 4: that's crazy. And then you find one of them on 820 00:43:53,600 --> 00:43:55,960 Speaker 4: the street and then they start unloading all kinds of 821 00:43:56,200 --> 00:43:58,400 Speaker 4: what he did what for a year? Oh yeah he 822 00:43:58,440 --> 00:43:58,839 Speaker 4: said who? 823 00:43:58,880 --> 00:43:59,120 Speaker 3: And what? 824 00:44:01,719 --> 00:44:02,839 Speaker 4: Oh okay, I get it. 825 00:44:03,000 --> 00:44:07,440 Speaker 2: We we live here in the sports media and fandom world, 826 00:44:07,960 --> 00:44:10,760 Speaker 2: and everybody gets to have opinions because that's how it works. 827 00:44:11,600 --> 00:44:14,000 Speaker 3: But what I find normally, again. 828 00:44:13,760 --> 00:44:17,560 Speaker 2: I'm not saying that every decision organizations make is the 829 00:44:17,640 --> 00:44:20,880 Speaker 2: right one by any stretch, but people on the inside 830 00:44:21,560 --> 00:44:25,680 Speaker 2: no more than people on the outside. And they are 831 00:44:25,719 --> 00:44:30,440 Speaker 2: not in professional sports because they're stupid. They're usually pretty 832 00:44:30,440 --> 00:44:35,600 Speaker 2: successful people, they're not dumb, and so yeah, there's usually 833 00:44:35,640 --> 00:44:36,520 Speaker 2: a reason for everything. 834 00:44:37,280 --> 00:44:42,399 Speaker 4: Yeah, I think I think we're getting in. Look, he's 835 00:44:42,440 --> 00:44:48,560 Speaker 4: at a treatment center right now, yep, and getting the 836 00:44:48,640 --> 00:44:53,480 Speaker 4: help that you know he needs. So I wish him 837 00:44:53,520 --> 00:44:57,160 Speaker 4: the best. I don't know what a holistic treatment center 838 00:44:57,440 --> 00:45:04,160 Speaker 4: is or what it does, and you know, I don't. 839 00:45:04,200 --> 00:45:09,680 Speaker 4: I don't know.

I say the Dodgers because that's my team. 913 00:50:08,360 --> 00:50:11,920 Speaker 4: They're seven and two. I had a miraculous comeback today 914 00:50:12,560 --> 00:50:15,240 Speaker 4: against the Washington team is trying to figure things out. Literally, 915 00:50:17,120 --> 00:50:21,799 Speaker 4: but shout out to baseball for the changes they've they've made. 916 00:50:21,840 --> 00:50:26,440 Speaker 4: What is it? The ABS system has been a flat 917 00:50:26,440 --> 00:50:28,120 Speaker 4: out hit. It's unbelievable. 918 00:50:28,160 --> 00:50:28,560 Speaker 3: I'll tell you. 919 00:50:28,840 --> 00:50:31,440 Speaker 2: I saw it live in person for the first time today. 920 00:50:31,719 --> 00:50:34,960 Speaker 2: It's really something. Oh my god, It's like the crowd 921 00:50:35,120 --> 00:50:37,240 Speaker 2: really just leans forward in their seats. 922 00:50:38,400 --> 00:50:42,239 Speaker 4: It's it's literally.

We're right, like, it's 924 00:50:47,200 --> 00:50:50,399 Speaker 4: it's it's infectious. I think it brings energy to the game. 925 00:50:50,880 --> 00:50:56,160 Speaker 4: I think it holds umpires accountable, and it gives us 926 00:50:56,200 --> 00:51:00,359 Speaker 4: a little bit of insight on what players see and 927 00:51:00,440 --> 00:51:03,400 Speaker 4: why they flip out sometimes at the plate. 928 00:51:03,760 --> 00:51:04,000 Speaker 3: Yep. 929 00:51:05,360 --> 00:51:09,480 Speaker 4: And it's great for baseball all in all. The pitch 930 00:51:09,560 --> 00:51:13,399 Speaker 4: clock and this has been a hit, a huge hit 931 00:51:14,600 --> 00:51:17,920 Speaker 4: this early in the baseball season. Has everybody talking about it, 932 00:51:18,160 --> 00:51:18,799 Speaker 4: and I love that. 933 00:51:19,000 --> 00:51:22,160 Speaker 2: I'm totally with you and what I here's another thing 934 00:51:22,200 --> 00:51:24,480 Speaker 2: that I hadn't been thinking about with ABS that I 935 00:51:24,560 --> 00:51:28,600 Speaker 2: now see. It is really interesting in terms of strategy, 936 00:51:29,160 --> 00:51:31,960 Speaker 2: Like you really sit there as a fan and think 937 00:51:31,960 --> 00:51:34,239 Speaker 2: about because these guys do not have a lot of 938 00:51:34,280 --> 00:51:36,880 Speaker 2: time to think about whether they want to challenge. 939 00:51:36,920 --> 00:51:38,560 Speaker 3: It needs to be immediate. 940 00:51:39,000 --> 00:51:42,279 Speaker 2: And the thing is is if you use those in 941 00:51:42,440 --> 00:51:47,200 Speaker 2: non high leverage situations for you better be right. You 942 00:51:47,440 --> 00:51:54,719 Speaker 2: better be right because it almost it's borderline selfish. If 943 00:51:54,760 --> 00:51:58,680 Speaker 2: somebody's up there, like they get a strike called on 944 00:51:58,760 --> 00:52:01,960 Speaker 2: them and and it's now it's zero to one leading 945 00:52:02,000 --> 00:52:04,800 Speaker 2: off the third inning and you top your helmet and 946 00:52:04,840 --> 00:52:08,200 Speaker 2: you're wrong, and everyone's like, now we have one challenge 947 00:52:08,280 --> 00:52:10,879 Speaker 2: left because you wanted the count to be one and oh. 948 00:52:11,040 --> 00:52:13,640 Speaker 3: Right, as opposed to what are you doing right? 949 00:52:13,680 --> 00:52:16,920 Speaker 2: I saw it today the Giants catcher tapped his helmet. 950 00:52:17,320 --> 00:52:20,480 Speaker 2: I want to say, bro, they're up like two to 951 00:52:20,480 --> 00:52:23,920 Speaker 2: one and maybe the seventh inning, two outs, nobody on 952 00:52:24,480 --> 00:52:27,080 Speaker 2: first pitch of the at bat, first pitch of the 953 00:52:27,080 --> 00:52:30,000 Speaker 2: atbat was a ball, and he tapped his helmet and 954 00:52:30,040 --> 00:52:32,040 Speaker 2: then we get to look at the scoreboard and he 955 00:52:32,160 --> 00:52:32,600 Speaker 2: was wrong. 956 00:52:33,120 --> 00:52:36,680 Speaker 3: It was a ball, And I'm like, dude, it's the 957 00:52:36,680 --> 00:52:37,680 Speaker 3: first pitch of the at bat. 958 00:52:37,800 --> 00:52:41,560 Speaker 2: There's no one on base, like, chill, It's okay, right, 959 00:52:41,880 --> 00:52:44,760 Speaker 2: Logan Webs on the hill. He can he can rally 960 00:52:44,800 --> 00:52:48,040 Speaker 2: from down one to oh like it, don't don't use 961 00:52:48,120 --> 00:52:52,000 Speaker 2: it unless you really need to. So I'm with you, man, 962 00:52:52,080 --> 00:52:53,120 Speaker 2: it's super exciting. 963 00:52:54,719 --> 00:52:59,319 Speaker 4: Yeah, it's It's something that I think the fans didn't 964 00:52:59,360 --> 00:52:59,960 Speaker 4: know they needed. 965 00:53:01,960 --> 00:53:04,439 Speaker 2: I'm with you. I'm with you. Okay, here's my number three. 966 00:53:05,120 --> 00:53:07,239 Speaker 2: And I don't know if this makes things better or 967 00:53:07,239 --> 00:53:11,600 Speaker 2: worse for what has you in pain today, which is 968 00:53:11,920 --> 00:53:17,200 Speaker 2: injuries to Luca and Austin Reeves. But to me, those 969 00:53:17,200 --> 00:53:21,840 Speaker 2: two injuries firmly solidify something that has nothing to do 970 00:53:21,880 --> 00:53:22,680 Speaker 2: with either one of them. 971 00:53:23,840 --> 00:53:26,400 Speaker 3: Ain't no way in hell Lebron James is retiring. 972 00:53:27,960 --> 00:53:34,319 Speaker 2: Ain't no way in hell that this is how his 973 00:53:34,440 --> 00:53:38,000 Speaker 2: career ends. I just don't buy it. By the way, 974 00:53:38,080 --> 00:53:40,840 Speaker 2: as he lays on the ground in the key right now, 975 00:53:41,239 --> 00:53:43,000 Speaker 2: we'll see if it's one of those Lebron. 976 00:53:44,600 --> 00:53:44,920 Speaker 3: I know. 977 00:53:45,160 --> 00:53:51,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, Purts been there. Anyway, point is is now 978 00:53:51,960 --> 00:53:55,520 Speaker 2: you have to think the likelihood becomes high that the 979 00:53:55,600 --> 00:53:59,000 Speaker 2: Lakers could very well be a first round out because 980 00:53:59,000 --> 00:54:01,800 Speaker 2: they are just not a whipped to go after whoever 981 00:54:02,080 --> 00:54:07,120 Speaker 2: they're going to go after Denver or Minnesota or whatever 982 00:54:07,239 --> 00:54:11,560 Speaker 2: is happening in the West Houston They're going to have 983 00:54:11,600 --> 00:54:14,760 Speaker 2: a really, really hard deal to start this off without 984 00:54:14,800 --> 00:54:18,400 Speaker 2: two of their best players, and I just don't think 985 00:54:18,480 --> 00:54:23,040 Speaker 2: that that man will let his career kind of go 986 00:54:23,120 --> 00:54:27,040 Speaker 2: out with a whimper like this. So I don't buy it. 987 00:54:27,560 --> 00:54:29,640 Speaker 2: And I think you're gonna see Lebron James play for 988 00:54:29,680 --> 00:54:31,239 Speaker 2: the Cavs of the Warriors next year. 989 00:54:32,000 --> 00:54:33,839 Speaker 4: Okay? Is that what you want? You want them up there? 990 00:54:34,440 --> 00:54:34,920 Speaker 4: I don't know. 991 00:54:35,320 --> 00:54:37,839 Speaker 2: That depends on other circumstances, so I won't say yes 992 00:54:37,920 --> 00:54:39,399 Speaker 2: or no yet, but I'm open to it, all. 993 00:54:39,400 --> 00:54:43,640 Speaker 4: Right, Okay open the team may just signed back or yeah, 994 00:54:43,800 --> 00:54:46,480 Speaker 4: I know you don't want that. I like to First 995 00:54:46,520 --> 00:54:48,839 Speaker 4: of all, let me just say this, the Lebron James 996 00:54:48,880 --> 00:54:51,120 Speaker 4: that we've been seeing for the last two months, I 997 00:54:51,239 --> 00:54:52,080 Speaker 4: take him all day. 998 00:54:52,239 --> 00:54:53,560 Speaker 3: Now, You're in okay. 999 00:54:53,560 --> 00:54:57,239 Speaker 4: If he can do that all year. If any team 1000 00:54:57,280 --> 00:54:59,400 Speaker 4: with Lebron James is your third option, you got a 1001 00:54:59,400 --> 00:55:03,480 Speaker 4: pretty good team. And they've shown that and they've shown 1002 00:55:03,520 --> 00:55:06,960 Speaker 4: that down the stretch here.

Yeah, that's what I believe. 1052 00:58:11,880 --> 00:58:21,720 Speaker 4: That's a good belief, and that's accurate. I think I 1053 00:58:21,760 --> 00:58:26,160 Speaker 4: actually think the San Antonio Spurs are better than Okay, see. 1054 00:58:25,960 --> 00:58:30,160 Speaker 2: They if they're not, they're about to be. That's how 1055 00:58:30,200 --> 00:58:30,840 Speaker 2: I would say it. 1056 00:58:31,400 --> 00:58:36,280 Speaker 4: Yeah, my my favorite to win it All this year 1057 00:58:36,360 --> 00:58:39,880 Speaker 4: is San Antonio. Look at that. It's just and I 1058 00:58:39,920 --> 00:58:41,960 Speaker 4: said this, you know at the beginning of the season, 1059 00:58:43,280 --> 00:58:47,520 Speaker 4: if Victor Woman Yamasa stays healthy, he's going to be 1060 00:58:49,200 --> 00:58:54,840 Speaker 4: the greatest basketball player that ever play. That's a big if. Normally, 1061 00:58:55,520 --> 00:59:01,520 Speaker 4: you know, bigs at that size, no matter how athletic 1062 00:59:01,560 --> 00:59:06,000 Speaker 4: they are, they wear down faster than a guard. So 1063 00:59:06,080 --> 00:59:13,040 Speaker 4: at seven five, you know, at twenty years old, the 1064 00:59:13,080 --> 00:59:15,760 Speaker 4: way he's playing, he's not even Just imagine him at 1065 00:59:15,800 --> 00:59:20,240 Speaker 4: twenty four. Remember what Giannis looked like his first couple 1066 00:59:20,240 --> 00:59:23,240 Speaker 4: of years in the league. Yep, yep, yep. Then he 1067 00:59:23,320 --> 00:59:26,320 Speaker 4: came back with some pterodactyl shoulders and everybody was like, 1068 00:59:26,400 --> 00:59:31,840 Speaker 4: what in the hill? Yeah, So just imagine Victor Woman 1069 00:59:31,920 --> 00:59:38,600 Speaker 4: yama with a man's body and that level of of 1070 00:59:38,880 --> 00:59:43,439 Speaker 4: skill and his you know, it's it's gonna be bad 1071 00:59:43,480 --> 00:59:44,040 Speaker 4: for everyone. 1072 00:59:44,280 --> 00:59:48,920 Speaker 2: I completely agree with you. And we're talking about on 1073 00:59:49,000 --> 00:59:51,480 Speaker 2: both ends of the floor. The best player in the 1074 00:59:51,520 --> 00:59:55,760 Speaker 2: world we're talking about. I mean, this dude dunks by 1075 00:59:55,840 --> 00:59:57,600 Speaker 2: reaching his arms straight out. 1076 00:59:57,800 --> 01:00:01,280 Speaker 4: Yeah, it's bad. And it's not even the offense. The 1077 01:00:01,400 --> 01:00:08,959 Speaker 4: offense is just crazy, right, the defensive prowess, he makes 1078 01:00:08,960 --> 01:00:13,440 Speaker 4: it impossible for you to score the ball anywhere in 1079 01:00:13,520 --> 01:00:17,880 Speaker 4: the paint. Most of us just give up, like it's impossible, right, 1080 01:00:18,560 --> 01:00:21,640 Speaker 4: you can't even you you in there shooting double pump 1081 01:00:23,200 --> 01:00:26,520 Speaker 4: floaters like it's it's so bad. He has such a 1082 01:00:27,880 --> 01:00:32,560 Speaker 4: huge impact on both ends of the floor. I don't 1083 01:00:32,560 --> 01:00:34,680 Speaker 4: see how they're not gonna get this man the MVP. 1084 01:00:35,440 --> 01:00:38,800 Speaker 2: You know that famous meme where the little kid comes 1085 01:00:38,880 --> 01:00:41,760 Speaker 2: running into the room and then just turns around and 1086 01:00:41,920 --> 01:00:44,680 Speaker 2: runs right back out of the room. Yes, And everybody 1087 01:00:44,760 --> 01:00:46,840 Speaker 2: uses it to kind of do They're like, oh, no, 1088 01:00:46,920 --> 01:00:50,200 Speaker 2: I didn't like what I saw. That's other people driving 1089 01:00:50,240 --> 01:00:54,680 Speaker 2: into the key when Victor's there, they running and they're like, yeah, 1090 01:00:54,760 --> 01:00:56,840 Speaker 2: never mind, I'm not putting up my shot. 1091 01:00:56,920 --> 01:00:58,960 Speaker 3: Let you do lock it with your elbow. 1092 01:00:59,120 --> 01:01:03,600 Speaker 4: He's blocking three pointers, he's doing step backs, he's and 1093 01:01:03,640 --> 01:01:05,080 Speaker 4: he's gonna get all the rebounds. Yep. 1094 01:01:05,120 --> 01:01:07,000 Speaker 2: And if you defend him, and I know you you 1095 01:01:07,040 --> 01:01:09,920 Speaker 2: didn't like this or like super early in his career 1096 01:01:10,440 --> 01:01:12,760 Speaker 2: and and I still don't do a degree, but the 1097 01:01:12,760 --> 01:01:16,080 Speaker 2: fact that he has this in a repertoire is a killer. 1098 01:01:16,560 --> 01:01:20,480 Speaker 2: If defensively you just want to sit back and be like, dude, 1099 01:01:20,560 --> 01:01:24,920 Speaker 2: you're gonna have to shoot jumpers. He can, Okay, he 1100 01:01:24,960 --> 01:01:28,560 Speaker 2: can and he will, so I don't see any weakness. 1101 01:01:28,800 --> 01:01:32,000 Speaker 2: And then the most underdiscussed thing in the NBA Ephraim 1102 01:01:32,720 --> 01:01:39,800 Speaker 2: is his supporting cast. Oh my goodness, sooie years no joke, 1103 01:01:40,000 --> 01:01:43,480 Speaker 2: and the and Dylan Harper can't even start. 1104 01:01:43,800 --> 01:01:47,080 Speaker 3: Man, holy hell. They are so deep. 1105 01:01:47,480 --> 01:01:50,760 Speaker 2: They surround that court so well, and he's only going 1106 01:01:50,840 --> 01:01:51,400 Speaker 2: to get better. 1107 01:01:51,480 --> 01:01:54,760 Speaker 3: So my take is I'm either with you, like it's 1108 01:01:54,840 --> 01:01:59,440 Speaker 3: either going to be this year or next year. Period. 1109 01:02:00,160 --> 01:02:03,080 Speaker 3: Once it hoppens, it's probably. 1110 01:02:02,640 --> 01:02:05,520 Speaker 2: Gonna be a handful. Yeah, he gonna it's probably gonna 1111 01:02:05,560 --> 01:02:08,560 Speaker 2: be a handful of them. He's really gonna run away 1112 01:02:08,560 --> 01:02:08,840 Speaker 2: with this. 1113 01:02:08,840 --> 01:02:10,160 Speaker 4: Thing, dude. 1114 01:02:10,200 --> 01:02:12,240 Speaker 3: They are They are so special. 1115 01:02:13,000 --> 01:02:16,320 Speaker 2: And and Oklahoma City just out here being like the 1116 01:02:16,400 --> 01:02:20,080 Speaker 2: presumed one seed for months and months. They're right there 1117 01:02:20,600 --> 01:02:23,760 Speaker 2: like they're gonna get it. But the Spurs are right there. 1118 01:02:24,400 --> 01:02:26,000 Speaker 2: They're two and a half games back. 1119 01:02:26,440 --> 01:02:31,560 Speaker 4: Yeah, and and like the only team that is really 1120 01:02:32,000 --> 01:02:38,480 Speaker 4: took a you know, built to butt to okay, see Spurs, Spurs. 1121 01:02:40,360 --> 01:02:42,200 Speaker 4: That's the only team. They don't want to see any 1122 01:02:42,240 --> 01:02:47,440 Speaker 4: parts of the Spurs period. 1123 01:02:47,480 --> 01:02:51,160 Speaker 2: Just imagine if they also had to Sager, could you 1124 01:02:51,200 --> 01:02:54,160 Speaker 2: imagine undefeated? 1125 01:02:54,360 --> 01:02:58,480 Speaker 7: You mentioned, ok they just beat you to one forty 1126 01:02:58,600 --> 01:02:59,240 Speaker 7: six to. 1127 01:02:59,240 --> 01:03:02,480 Speaker 3: One eleven due the NBA.

No, 1242 01:09:16,040 --> 01:09:21,559 Speaker 2: but yeah, especially no brothers, especially especially Cooper. 1243 01:09:21,560 --> 01:09:22,680 Speaker 3: Flag has thirty. 1244 01:09:22,479 --> 01:09:25,680 Speaker 2: Nine killing with ten minutes to go, ten minutes to 1245 01:09:25,680 --> 01:09:30,720 Speaker 2: go in the game, he's got thirty nine throwing, seven rebounds, 1246 01:09:30,720 --> 01:09:32,520 Speaker 2: and eight assists as well. 1247 01:09:34,000 --> 01:09:35,120 Speaker 3: Two steals on a block. 1248 01:09:38,920 --> 01:09:40,240 Speaker 4: Yeah he something else, man? 1249 01:09:40,600 --> 01:09:43,560 Speaker 7: That was a Can I just say out loud that 1250 01:09:43,640 --> 01:09:46,160 Speaker 7: Duke had the National Player of the Year back to back. Heres, 1251 01:09:46,160 --> 01:09:48,559 Speaker 7: it's just the first guy didn't stay and they were 1252 01:09:48,600 --> 01:09:50,280 Speaker 7: ranked number one this year without him. 1253 01:09:50,880 --> 01:09:54,200 Speaker 4: How about yeah, how about Remember we had this conversation, 1254 01:09:54,280 --> 01:09:58,439 Speaker 4: We talked about it, Yes, we did. The reason Duke 1255 01:09:59,240 --> 01:10:04,400 Speaker 4: is going to struggle year after year. They can recruit, 1256 01:10:06,520 --> 01:10:10,240 Speaker 4: but these guys are out so they fall short, which 1257 01:10:10,400 --> 01:10:13,719 Speaker 4: most of them do because they're eighteen years old. 1258 01:10:14,439 --> 01:10:17,599 Speaker 7: Conversely, the UCLA team that won the women's title today, 1259 01:10:18,000 --> 01:10:21,360 Speaker 7: every single point scored today was by a senior. 1260 01:10:21,640 --> 01:10:22,519 Speaker 4: And there you have it. 1261 01:10:22,840 --> 01:10:25,719 Speaker 7: That's why it looks like it looks and they should 1262 01:10:25,760 --> 01:10:28,760 Speaker 7: have been eliminated. Friday A lesser team with twenty three 1263 01:10:28,800 --> 01:10:31,400 Speaker 7: turnovers in the ugliest ball game of the year would 1264 01:10:31,400 --> 01:10:33,040 Speaker 7: have lost Friday and never made it. 1265 01:10:33,080 --> 01:10:38,120 Speaker 4: That's true. That's true, And so Duke is going to 1266 01:10:38,160 --> 01:10:42,639 Speaker 4: continue to get the Player of the Year and they're 1267 01:10:42,680 --> 01:10:45,240 Speaker 4: going to struggle when they get deeper in the tournament 1268 01:10:45,360 --> 01:10:48,599 Speaker 4: because it's hard to ask an eighteen year old kid 1269 01:10:48,640 --> 01:10:51,280 Speaker 4: to get We saw it was Zion right, was Zion RJ. 1270 01:10:51,400 --> 01:10:57,200 Speaker 4: Barrett Cam Reddish. They were all freshmen, all highly touted, 1271 01:10:59,400 --> 01:11:04,080 Speaker 4: didn't pay all off. And until you can get these guys, Now, 1272 01:11:04,360 --> 01:11:07,240 Speaker 4: imagine if Cooper Flags stay they do, they're beating They 1273 01:11:07,240 --> 01:11:11,920 Speaker 4: would be beating teams like Michigan beating teams. That's a 1274 01:11:11,960 --> 01:11:12,439 Speaker 4: real thing. 1275 01:11:12,640 --> 01:11:12,880 Speaker 3: Yep. 1276 01:11:13,000 --> 01:11:13,720 Speaker 4: It literally. 1277 01:11:14,120 --> 01:11:17,440 Speaker 7: They already had a string of ten twelve super impressive 1278 01:11:17,479 --> 01:11:19,360 Speaker 7: results as it was this year. 1279 01:11:19,439 --> 01:11:23,880 Speaker 4: So I say that to say, if Cam Boozer decided 1280 01:11:25,080 --> 01:11:27,040 Speaker 4: I'm going I'm going to stay in school with my 1281 01:11:27,160 --> 01:11:33,719 Speaker 4: brother and whoever the five star blue chip guy coming 1282 01:11:33,760 --> 01:11:37,960 Speaker 4: in this year, we're going to play together and we're 1283 01:11:37,960 --> 01:11:43,080 Speaker 4: gonna win a national championship. That would make sense to me. 1284 01:11:43,120 --> 01:11:45,519 Speaker 4: They're already making seven eight nine million dollars. 1285 01:11:45,680 --> 01:11:47,680 Speaker 7: That's the part of the equation that exists now that 1286 01:11:47,760 --> 01:11:48,439 Speaker 7: didn't before. 1287 01:11:48,520 --> 01:11:51,639 Speaker 4: Yeah, So I'm like, what's your rush? 1288 01:11:52,000 --> 01:11:55,439 Speaker 3: I read it? Well, we tell them seeing somebody do this. 1289 01:11:55,960 --> 01:11:58,080 Speaker 4: I get you, right, but this is what I this 1290 01:11:58,120 --> 01:11:58,880 Speaker 4: is what I'll tell you. 1291 01:11:58,920 --> 01:11:59,599 Speaker 3: But I hear you. 1292 01:12:01,360 --> 01:12:03,439 Speaker 4: Do you know why? The reason we're talking about Cooper 1293 01:12:03,439 --> 01:12:07,840 Speaker 4: Flag because he's playing the Lakers. Yeah and fifty a 1294 01:12:07,880 --> 01:12:08,360 Speaker 4: game ago. 1295 01:12:08,840 --> 01:12:09,160 Speaker 3: Right. 1296 01:12:09,320 --> 01:12:13,800 Speaker 4: Other than that, outside of the first two weeks, how 1297 01:12:13,880 --> 01:12:16,479 Speaker 4: much of the NBA season have we used on Cooper Flag? 1298 01:12:16,600 --> 01:12:18,879 Speaker 3: No, like his team stinks. 1299 01:12:19,240 --> 01:12:21,720 Speaker 4: So what happens is you can be that type of 1300 01:12:21,760 --> 01:12:28,080 Speaker 4: player and then disappear for your whole rookie season. Well, okay, 1301 01:12:28,120 --> 01:12:30,479 Speaker 4: I'm depending on where you go. 1302 01:12:30,720 --> 01:12:32,920 Speaker 2: Here's where I'm going to push back, my friend. The 1303 01:12:33,000 --> 01:12:35,600 Speaker 2: college basketball, the entire season disappears. 1304 01:12:35,800 --> 01:12:36,880 Speaker 4: Yeah. But what I'm saying we're. 1305 01:12:36,800 --> 01:12:40,559 Speaker 2: Talking about this now and cam Boozer because it's March April. 1306 01:12:40,640 --> 01:12:42,880 Speaker 4: Yeah, but what I'm saying is when you're in that 1307 01:12:43,000 --> 01:12:45,920 Speaker 4: college environment, it's different than the NBA. Yes, it's fun. 1308 01:12:46,000 --> 01:12:48,320 Speaker 4: First of all, you're there with the guys you chose 1309 01:12:48,360 --> 01:12:49,120 Speaker 4: to be there. 1310 01:12:49,000 --> 01:12:49,679 Speaker 3: No question. 1311 01:12:49,880 --> 01:12:53,080 Speaker 4: So when you go to an NBA team, you're walking 1312 01:12:53,160 --> 01:12:59,000 Speaker 4: into grown men, professionals, they have lives and all that. 1313 01:12:59,040 --> 01:13:03,400 Speaker 4: When you're in a college atmosphere and you you guys 1314 01:13:03,439 --> 01:13:06,120 Speaker 4: are bonding and most of the guys you played aau 1315 01:13:06,160 --> 01:13:08,679 Speaker 4: with are played against in high school. Now you're getting 1316 01:13:08,720 --> 01:13:10,679 Speaker 4: a chance to play together and build that and bond. 1317 01:13:10,880 --> 01:13:14,000 Speaker 4: There's nothing like that. The NBA is not like that. 1318 01:13:14,280 --> 01:13:15,200 Speaker 3: I totally. 1319 01:13:15,360 --> 01:13:18,960 Speaker 4: And so once you sacrifice that right and yeah, you 1320 01:13:18,960 --> 01:13:22,280 Speaker 4: you live in the world of obscurity unless you're there, 1321 01:13:22,479 --> 01:13:25,479 Speaker 4: Unless on campus and all, it's a whole nother environment. 1322 01:13:26,280 --> 01:13:32,400 Speaker 4: And so because you're making the money you're making, if 1323 01:13:32,439 --> 01:13:35,559 Speaker 4: you really want to win a national championship, you should 1324 01:13:36,040 --> 01:13:39,280 Speaker 4: go win a national championship. But you're not going to 1325 01:13:39,360 --> 01:13:45,759 Speaker 4: be able to do it as freshmen all leaving, coming 1326 01:13:45,800 --> 01:13:47,840 Speaker 4: and leaving. It's not gonna work. 1327 01:13:47,960 --> 01:13:50,760 Speaker 2: And that Duke and other teams like them need to 1328 01:13:50,800 --> 01:13:53,040 Speaker 2: start factoring this into their analytics. 1329 01:13:53,040 --> 01:13:57,439 Speaker 4: Then it's who imagine if Cooper Flag was there, are 1330 01:13:57,560 --> 01:14:00,680 Speaker 4: cockingip on Cooper Flag decided toy. 1331 01:14:01,520 --> 01:14:04,439 Speaker 2: Then it'd be beating to people by fifty. They would 1332 01:14:04,439 --> 01:14:05,439 Speaker 2: have a game tomorrow night. 1333 01:14:05,560 --> 01:14:10,719 Speaker 4: But that's the point, and I said it last week. 1334 01:14:11,600 --> 01:14:14,320 Speaker 4: Cam Boozer has more of a chance to win a 1335 01:14:14,439 --> 01:14:18,200 Speaker 4: national championship in college than he does an NBA championship. 1336 01:14:18,320 --> 01:14:18,840 Speaker 3: For sure. 1337 01:14:19,600 --> 01:14:24,240 Speaker 4: For sure, Well, flag, I would have had a better 1338 01:14:24,360 --> 01:14:26,760 Speaker 4: chance to win a national championship this year if he 1339 01:14:26,760 --> 01:14:27,479 Speaker 4: would have stayed. 1340 01:14:28,160 --> 01:14:31,320 Speaker 3: Then he will his whole career in the NBA. 1341 01:14:31,040 --> 01:14:35,280 Speaker 2: Unless the NBA gets their hands on them lottery balls again, right, 1342 01:14:37,479 --> 01:14:40,240 Speaker 2: number one pick might be Steph Curry's teammate next year. 1343 01:14:40,360 --> 01:14:42,080 Speaker 4: Right, Yeah, that's true. 1344 01:14:42,360 --> 01:14:44,759 Speaker 2: Not that that's going to beat Victor women Yama, but anyway, 1345 01:14:45,320 --> 01:14:47,920 Speaker 2: that's see from my mark. We're live here in the 1346 01:14:47,960 --> 01:14:51,640 Speaker 2: Fox Sports Radio studios, and in fact, I would love 1347 01:14:51,880 --> 01:14:53,760 Speaker 2: I'm not quite done with all of that yet, but 1348 01:14:54,040 --> 01:14:55,639 Speaker 2: I would love to talk to you about it through 1349 01:14:55,680 --> 01:14:59,600 Speaker 2: the eyes of the NBA and what the entire calendar 1350 01:15:00,280 --> 01:15:05,040 Speaker 2: year plus two months has been like for the Dallas 1351 01:15:05,080 --> 01:15:09,040 Speaker 2: Mavericks and everything that took place that arrives to this moment. 1352 01:15:09,080 --> 01:15:13,200 Speaker 2: We'll do that next on Fox Sports Radio. All right, 1353 01:15:13,200 --> 01:15:16,800 Speaker 2: we live in the Fox Sports Radio studios. While we're 1354 01:15:16,800 --> 01:15:22,840 Speaker 2: on the NBA front. MAVs lead the Lakers by nine 1355 01:15:23,040 --> 01:15:27,559 Speaker 2: just under seven minutes to go. Steph Curry's return to 1356 01:15:27,600 --> 01:15:32,000 Speaker 2: the court after a twenty seven game absence is probably 1357 01:15:32,040 --> 01:15:38,800 Speaker 2: about Eh twenty twenty five minutes away. 1358 01:15:39,479 --> 01:15:41,720 Speaker 4: Can I ask you a question fire away? Do you 1359 01:15:41,760 --> 01:15:46,240 Speaker 4: got you? Do you think you guys can make the playoffs? 1360 01:15:46,720 --> 01:15:50,599 Speaker 3: Can they make the play I mean probably not? Could they? 1361 01:15:50,680 --> 01:15:53,480 Speaker 3: Sure they could? They could? 1362 01:15:53,920 --> 01:15:57,360 Speaker 2: I mean the team that they stand to potentially put 1363 01:15:57,400 --> 01:15:59,439 Speaker 2: out on the court in a week and a half 1364 01:16:01,160 --> 01:16:04,320 Speaker 2: is a much better team than what they've been playing with. 1365 01:16:05,640 --> 01:16:09,559 Speaker 2: They can go out there with Steph Curry and Chris 1366 01:16:09,600 --> 01:16:13,000 Speaker 2: tops Porzingis who have never played together, and he's starting 1367 01:16:13,000 --> 01:16:16,280 Speaker 2: to stack games, and Al Horford will return and it's 1368 01:16:16,760 --> 01:16:19,280 Speaker 2: it's not a devastating crew. It's an old crew, but 1369 01:16:19,320 --> 01:16:21,479 Speaker 2: it's a it's also a veteran crew that knows what 1370 01:16:21,520 --> 01:16:22,000 Speaker 2: they're doing. 1371 01:16:23,040 --> 01:16:25,800 Speaker 4: So you guys, if you guys did do that, you 1372 01:16:25,880 --> 01:16:27,639 Speaker 4: guys draw the Spurs card? 1373 01:16:28,960 --> 01:16:31,799 Speaker 2: Well, no, they would probably we'll probably draw, okay, see, 1374 01:16:31,880 --> 01:16:32,960 Speaker 2: because they're going to either be the. 1375 01:16:33,000 --> 01:16:36,200 Speaker 4: Nine, yeah there. 1376 01:16:35,800 --> 01:16:39,200 Speaker 2: Yeah, they're gonna have to win is very highly highly 1377 01:16:39,280 --> 01:16:41,679 Speaker 2: likely that the ten. So you got to win two 1378 01:16:41,840 --> 01:16:45,600 Speaker 2: road games in an elimination scenario that in and of 1379 01:16:45,640 --> 01:16:49,280 Speaker 2: itself I find to be very op Yes, but yes, 1380 01:16:49,360 --> 01:16:50,960 Speaker 2: if they were to win two games, they would be 1381 01:16:50,960 --> 01:16:54,800 Speaker 2: the eight seed and they would go get drubbed by OKC. Yep, 1382 01:16:56,200 --> 01:17:00,960 Speaker 2: that's how I see it. But playing games will be 1383 01:17:00,960 --> 01:17:04,160 Speaker 2: a lot more fun with Steph Curry than without him. Absolutely, 1384 01:17:04,200 --> 01:17:07,200 Speaker 2: I mean they'd get they'd get absolutely run off the 1385 01:17:07,240 --> 01:17:08,760 Speaker 2: court with what they're throwing out there. 1386 01:17:08,800 --> 01:17:09,040 Speaker 3: Now. 1387 01:17:10,240 --> 01:17:18,800 Speaker 4: Yeah, but you guys have the lacrosse guy boy and 1388 01:17:18,880 --> 01:17:26,160 Speaker 4: the that I tell you and car Yeah you ever get. 1389 01:17:26,080 --> 01:17:29,680 Speaker 2: You ever watch people get all excited about something that 1390 01:17:29,840 --> 01:17:35,760 Speaker 2: then just fizzles, Like I'm gonna date us a little bit. 1391 01:17:36,479 --> 01:17:38,679 Speaker 2: But you know what Pat Spencer is.

They're just not. 1454 01:21:04,080 --> 01:21:07,479 Speaker 2: Even though I find it a little bit far fetched 1455 01:21:07,520 --> 01:21:11,400 Speaker 2: in today's day and age that somebody, a multi billion 1456 01:21:11,439 --> 01:21:14,560 Speaker 2: dollar sports league could pull something like that off. 1457 01:21:15,800 --> 01:21:17,960 Speaker 3: Without any oversight whatsoever. 1458 01:21:18,840 --> 01:21:21,160 Speaker 2: But there's too many times, like you just detailed, where 1459 01:21:21,160 --> 01:21:25,439 Speaker 2: it sort of feels like, hey, where did that come from? 1460 01:21:25,760 --> 01:21:26,400 Speaker 3: That's just a. 1461 01:21:26,320 --> 01:21:31,040 Speaker 2: Little too convenient.

Yes, Steph's contract, Draymond's contract, Jimmy Butler's contract, 1482 01:23:23,479 --> 01:23:25,520 Speaker 2: The word is they're going to try to get Kristaps 1483 01:23:25,560 --> 01:23:29,960 Speaker 2: to come back on a one year deal. Everything tracks 1484 01:23:30,040 --> 01:23:39,320 Speaker 2: toward total flexibility after that. But also absolutely no young 1485 01:23:39,400 --> 01:23:41,839 Speaker 2: star that has everybody excited. 1486 01:23:44,920 --> 01:23:48,200 Speaker 4: Yeah, you partner him with aj Debonzu. 1487 01:23:50,280 --> 01:23:55,959 Speaker 2: And half of a year of Jimmy Butler and Chris STAPs. 1488 01:23:56,439 --> 01:24:05,599 Speaker 4: Ye got yelling at him. That'd be fun, but now 1489 01:24:05,800 --> 01:24:09,360 Speaker 4: you know, now you breathe life back in the stuff. 1490 01:24:10,800 --> 01:24:16,559 Speaker 3: Okay, who else? I think the Bulls won the Bulls. 1491 01:24:16,680 --> 01:24:18,480 Speaker 4: Yeah. 1492 01:24:18,600 --> 01:24:20,960 Speaker 2: Here's the other thing about this draft, and I'm no 1493 01:24:21,080 --> 01:24:22,240 Speaker 2: draft nick, but. 1494 01:24:23,680 --> 01:24:25,880 Speaker 4: It's about six kids who can go. 1495 01:24:26,120 --> 01:24:29,080 Speaker 3: I think it might be more. I think it honestly 1496 01:24:29,200 --> 01:24:29,559 Speaker 3: might be. 1497 01:24:30,160 --> 01:24:33,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, this is I'll tell you what Mark Speers, hall 1498 01:24:33,840 --> 01:24:38,160 Speaker 2: of Fame writer for ESPN, longtime NBA boys, he told me. 1499 01:24:38,120 --> 01:24:40,519 Speaker 3: A couple of weeks ago. He goes, I think this 1500 01:24:40,600 --> 01:24:41,680 Speaker 3: is fifteen. 1501 01:24:41,320 --> 01:24:46,880 Speaker 2: Deep, and whether that's true or not, and some people 1502 01:24:46,920 --> 01:24:48,280 Speaker 2: are going to mess the picks up and all of 1503 01:24:48,280 --> 01:24:48,799 Speaker 2: that stuff. 1504 01:24:49,080 --> 01:24:50,880 Speaker 3: What this year isn't is like. 1505 01:24:51,360 --> 01:24:53,960 Speaker 2: A shock or a Lebron or a Cooper flag year, 1506 01:24:54,040 --> 01:24:58,360 Speaker 2: even where you're like, that's the dude, there's I mean, 1507 01:24:58,400 --> 01:25:03,720 Speaker 2: there's a debate. There's a debate at the top or 1508 01:25:03,720 --> 01:25:05,400 Speaker 2: do you think it's definitely Debonsa. 1509 01:25:09,400 --> 01:25:14,320 Speaker 4: It depends on who gets the first pick. I think 1510 01:25:14,320 --> 01:25:24,600 Speaker 4: that's important because they're like Peterson from Kansas. If you 1511 01:25:24,680 --> 01:25:29,519 Speaker 4: don't have you know, generational guard play or great guard play, 1512 01:25:29,600 --> 01:25:34,080 Speaker 4: you take him. But if you do, if you do, 1513 01:25:34,479 --> 01:25:38,400 Speaker 4: then Carlos Boozer, I mean Cam Boozer looks good or 1514 01:25:38,479 --> 01:25:42,639 Speaker 4: Aj Debonta looks good right watching what Cooper Flag is doing. 1515 01:25:43,680 --> 01:25:47,160 Speaker 4: The person that most resembles him in college right now 1516 01:25:47,360 --> 01:25:54,320 Speaker 4: is Aj Debonta. So you would want even though Cooper 1517 01:25:54,400 --> 01:25:56,880 Speaker 4: is playing out of position this year at point guard, 1518 01:25:58,600 --> 01:26:00,800 Speaker 4: you want that lengthen at a ability to get a 1519 01:26:00,840 --> 01:26:04,559 Speaker 4: bucket on the wing who can play you know, one 1520 01:26:04,600 --> 01:26:08,040 Speaker 4: through four. So I think that's attractive to a lot 1521 01:26:08,080 --> 01:26:10,960 Speaker 4: of teams for sure. I think if if Golden State 1522 01:26:11,040 --> 01:26:13,920 Speaker 4: gets that pick, then absolutely they're taking him. 1523 01:26:14,120 --> 01:26:14,400 Speaker 3: Well. 1524 01:26:14,800 --> 01:26:17,320 Speaker 2: But even by virtue of the way you answered that, 1525 01:26:17,479 --> 01:26:19,720 Speaker 2: I think firms up what I'm saying, Like, if it 1526 01:26:19,760 --> 01:26:22,680 Speaker 2: depends on the team, then that means there is not 1527 01:26:23,040 --> 01:26:26,240 Speaker 2: a clear cut I can't pass on that guy guy. 1528 01:26:26,280 --> 01:26:28,680 Speaker 4: Right, because there might be five of those guys in 1529 01:26:28,760 --> 01:26:31,160 Speaker 4: this draft based on your needs. 1530 01:26:31,600 --> 01:26:34,160 Speaker 2: So maybe that's a year for the NBA to not 1531 01:26:34,320 --> 01:26:38,120 Speaker 2: pull shenanigans and tuck some of these teams that they 1532 01:26:38,200 --> 01:26:40,160 Speaker 2: want in it, like you know, three or four. 1533 01:26:42,040 --> 01:26:46,080 Speaker 3: And by the way, you know, well the Chicago Bulls have. 1534 01:26:47,479 --> 01:26:50,040 Speaker 2: Boy, they ended up winning twenty nine games, didn't they 1535 01:26:50,240 --> 01:26:53,920 Speaker 2: They got one, two, three, four or five six? They 1536 01:26:53,920 --> 01:26:55,559 Speaker 2: got a lot of teams ahead of them. Yeah, they 1537 01:26:56,080 --> 01:27:01,000 Speaker 2: So they're gonna need a bounce Washington doesn't. They've got 1538 01:27:01,000 --> 01:27:04,840 Speaker 2: the absolute Washington Kings Pacers. 1539 01:27:04,479 --> 01:27:09,120 Speaker 3: Right, yeah, do they want to I mean market size. 1540 01:27:09,880 --> 01:27:14,400 Speaker 4: I don't think they want in the Pacers, just given 1541 01:27:14,920 --> 01:27:19,679 Speaker 4: how no one cared last year that was that was ugly. 1542 01:27:19,920 --> 01:27:24,160 Speaker 4: So I think they're I don't believe they will. I 1543 01:27:24,160 --> 01:27:27,200 Speaker 4: don't think we'll know if we're going to something if 1544 01:27:27,200 --> 01:27:28,120 Speaker 4: they don't get the first. 1545 01:27:28,320 --> 01:27:29,840 Speaker 3: How about if Dallas gets it again? 1546 01:27:30,479 --> 01:27:31,800 Speaker 4: That makes sense. I can see that. 1547 01:27:31,880 --> 01:27:33,640 Speaker 3: Let's give Cooper Flag a running. 1548 01:27:33,400 --> 01:27:37,120 Speaker 4: Mate, all right, I can see that. 1549 01:27:41,200 --> 01:27:44,080 Speaker 3: Well, that's sure gonna be interesting. 1550 01:27:44,120 --> 01:27:49,439 Speaker 2: It is and interesting. You know, hey, we didn't even 1551 01:27:49,479 --> 01:27:52,479 Speaker 2: talk about this Buck situation. What in the hell? 1552 01:27:52,960 --> 01:27:55,679 Speaker 3: Man? What's your take? 1553 01:27:56,960 --> 01:27:57,840 Speaker 4: When it goes bad? 1554 01:27:57,880 --> 01:28:02,760 Speaker 10: It goes bad, but not this, like, come, what are 1555 01:28:02,800 --> 01:28:08,639 Speaker 10: we doing? I like, in a way. 1556 01:28:09,640 --> 01:28:11,920 Speaker 2: This is one of those weird situations where I kind 1557 01:28:11,920 --> 01:28:16,360 Speaker 2: of come out annoyed at everybody, which is weird because 1558 01:28:17,000 --> 01:28:18,720 Speaker 2: we're talking Milwaukee, Wisconsin. 1559 01:28:18,840 --> 01:28:20,560 Speaker 3: I'm sure you've been to Milwaukee. 1560 01:28:21,080 --> 01:28:23,680 Speaker 2: I find that area of the country to have some 1561 01:28:23,760 --> 01:28:27,360 Speaker 2: of the most fun, welcoming human beings. 1562 01:28:27,360 --> 01:28:28,559 Speaker 4: I've ever met in my life. 1563 01:28:29,120 --> 01:28:32,599 Speaker 2: That city, that area, whether it's go to a Green 1564 01:28:32,640 --> 01:28:37,719 Speaker 2: Bay Packer game, go to Madison University of Wisconsin, everything 1565 01:28:37,760 --> 01:28:41,280 Speaker 2: about that area of the country, it just like, I 1566 01:28:41,280 --> 01:28:43,920 Speaker 2: don't know, I've had really really good experience. So I 1567 01:28:44,000 --> 01:28:48,639 Speaker 2: don't root against the city of Milwaukee, and Yannis through 1568 01:28:48,680 --> 01:28:54,560 Speaker 2: the years has been a very root for him. A 1569 01:28:54,680 --> 01:28:57,960 Speaker 2: bull star, Yes, can I get away with that? That 1570 01:28:58,800 --> 01:29:03,040 Speaker 2: butchering of the English language wonderful. So that's kind of 1571 01:29:03,080 --> 01:29:07,599 Speaker 2: how it's been, and now suddenly not anymore. Now I'm 1572 01:29:07,640 --> 01:29:11,080 Speaker 2: looking at both of these sides, and I'm thinking to myself, Okay, Bucks, 1573 01:29:12,000 --> 01:29:13,960 Speaker 2: of all the things in today's day and age of 1574 01:29:14,000 --> 01:29:16,240 Speaker 2: the NBA to not get into a fight with your 1575 01:29:16,240 --> 01:29:19,719 Speaker 2: star about it's whether or not just he'll go play. 1576 01:29:21,280 --> 01:29:22,639 Speaker 3: So that's a terrible look. 1577 01:29:23,400 --> 01:29:28,040 Speaker 2: Meantime, though, Yannis to me, has become the most. 1578 01:29:28,240 --> 01:29:31,120 Speaker 3: Passive, aggressive star in all of sports. 1579 01:29:32,240 --> 01:29:35,839 Speaker 2: Stop asking for a trade, followed by not getting traded 1580 01:29:35,880 --> 01:29:39,120 Speaker 2: and going public and saying I've never I've never asked 1581 01:29:39,120 --> 01:29:39,960 Speaker 2: for a trade. 1582 01:29:40,200 --> 01:29:42,280 Speaker 3: I don't want a trade. 1583 01:29:42,600 --> 01:29:45,360 Speaker 2: What was a tweety sent out after the trade deadline 1584 01:29:45,880 --> 01:29:50,000 Speaker 2: legends don't chase, they attract or something like that. It's like, 1585 01:29:50,520 --> 01:29:55,080 Speaker 2: none of this stuff has ever gotten off of home plate. 1586 01:29:55,880 --> 01:29:58,000 Speaker 2: If you didn't go tell the Bucks that you wanted 1587 01:29:58,000 --> 01:30:01,080 Speaker 2: to play somewhere else, I'll never buy that. 1588 01:30:01,520 --> 01:30:03,920 Speaker 3: And then every time he doesn't go somewhere, he's like, yeah, 1589 01:30:04,320 --> 01:30:04,960 Speaker 3: I don't want. 1590 01:30:04,800 --> 01:30:05,600 Speaker 4: To go anywhere. 1591 01:30:06,720 --> 01:30:10,200 Speaker 2: He just does not ever want to be looked at 1592 01:30:10,280 --> 01:30:14,160 Speaker 2: as the bad guy. And when you do that once 1593 01:30:14,200 --> 01:30:17,479 Speaker 2: too many times, you manifest exactly that. 1594 01:30:17,880 --> 01:30:19,800 Speaker 4: This is what happens when you hold on to a 1595 01:30:19,800 --> 01:30:24,920 Speaker 4: player too long, like no one's coming to play with 1596 01:30:25,000 --> 01:30:32,559 Speaker 4: him in Milwaukee. So Janni's should have known this, and 1597 01:30:33,600 --> 01:30:39,600 Speaker 4: the Bucks should have known this, And now we're in 1598 01:30:39,640 --> 01:30:41,120 Speaker 4: a situation where. 1599 01:30:42,560 --> 01:30:43,760 Speaker 3: They may be it. 1600 01:30:44,080 --> 01:30:47,280 Speaker 4: I'm sure they will make a move, and preferably before 1601 01:30:47,320 --> 01:30:51,640 Speaker 4: the draft. The eve of the draft should be a 1602 01:30:51,760 --> 01:30:56,160 Speaker 4: huge blockbuster deal should be Yeah, Jannis is going to 1603 01:30:58,280 --> 01:31:07,559 Speaker 4: play in Washington, ad And and you know Trey Young 1604 01:31:08,840 --> 01:31:10,840 Speaker 4: and you know, because then they're giving up the first 1605 01:31:10,880 --> 01:31:12,080 Speaker 4: pick in the draft something like that. 1606 01:31:12,280 --> 01:31:14,759 Speaker 2: You may you may be right, but I will argue, 1607 01:31:15,439 --> 01:31:18,000 Speaker 2: whatever they get, it's less than what they could have 1608 01:31:18,040 --> 01:31:19,040 Speaker 2: gotten in February. 1609 01:31:19,400 --> 01:31:21,679 Speaker 3: They already missed their their ape. 1610 01:31:21,920 --> 01:31:24,639 Speaker 4: Yeah, I think I think you're right there. I think 1611 01:31:26,160 --> 01:31:30,479 Speaker 4: that was a premium. And I believe the reason that 1612 01:31:30,520 --> 01:31:34,200 Speaker 4: thing starred like it did was because Giannis was coming 1613 01:31:34,240 --> 01:31:37,320 Speaker 4: off the capture and he was not playing. Maybe if 1614 01:31:37,320 --> 01:31:39,559 Speaker 4: he was out there's going thirty six points a game, 1615 01:31:39,680 --> 01:31:42,760 Speaker 4: thirty two points a game, that's a different conversation because 1616 01:31:42,760 --> 01:31:45,200 Speaker 4: the team is going to mortgage everything for him to 1617 01:31:45,200 --> 01:31:45,439 Speaker 4: come in. 1618 01:31:45,560 --> 01:31:49,479 Speaker 2: Now, I hear you, but I think there were teams 1619 01:31:49,479 --> 01:31:51,679 Speaker 2: willing to do that anyway. I certainly got the impression 1620 01:31:51,720 --> 01:31:53,920 Speaker 2: that he didn't get traded because Milwaukee just said no, 1621 01:31:54,360 --> 01:31:55,960 Speaker 2: like they just never got serious. 1622 01:31:56,439 --> 01:31:59,320 Speaker 3: I know, the Warriors offered him four first rounders. 1623 01:31:59,600 --> 01:32:01,679 Speaker 4: I know this, Yeah, that's crazy, and. 1624 01:32:01,600 --> 01:32:04,519 Speaker 2: They said they like they never even got going with 1625 01:32:04,560 --> 01:32:05,440 Speaker 2: that conversation. 1626 01:32:06,240 --> 01:32:10,400 Speaker 4: Interesting, if the Warriors got Andrea, Well, but if you're 1627 01:32:10,439 --> 01:32:13,639 Speaker 4: the Warriors, now, I'm like, well, hold on. 1628 01:32:13,560 --> 01:32:17,240 Speaker 2: A second, price goes down now? Now, first of all, 1629 01:32:17,800 --> 01:32:20,840 Speaker 2: you didn't get them for this year. Second of all, 1630 01:32:21,520 --> 01:32:25,439 Speaker 2: now you're fighting with each other publicly, which always brings 1631 01:32:25,479 --> 01:32:29,400 Speaker 2: someone's value down. And third, that first rounder that was 1632 01:32:29,400 --> 01:32:33,160 Speaker 2: offered in February was just like a random first rounder, 1633 01:32:33,280 --> 01:32:36,320 Speaker 2: and now it could be something that's actually like we 1634 01:32:36,439 --> 01:32:40,360 Speaker 2: got business. So I'm not saying the Warriors wouldn't do that. 1635 01:32:41,320 --> 01:32:44,280 Speaker 2: I'm just saying you might only get two first rounders. 1636 01:32:44,320 --> 01:32:48,160 Speaker 4: Now I'm making that happen to put Giannis with with Steph. 1637 01:32:48,720 --> 01:32:50,599 Speaker 3: They've been they've been trying for a year. 1638 01:32:50,720 --> 01:32:54,080 Speaker 4: Oh many do they do it in a heartbeat? I'm 1639 01:32:54,080 --> 01:32:56,280 Speaker 4: doing that right right. 1640 01:32:56,560 --> 01:32:58,880 Speaker 3: I just think, look to me, when you're about to 1641 01:32:58,880 --> 01:32:59,599 Speaker 3: trade a star. 1642 01:33:00,120 --> 01:33:03,400 Speaker 4: The third pick in the draft, I mean sure, sure, 1643 01:33:04,360 --> 01:33:07,360 Speaker 4: that's the only way Milwaukee is going to Yeah, well 1644 01:33:07,400 --> 01:33:09,599 Speaker 4: we'll see where there was. So it could be a 1645 01:33:09,600 --> 01:33:12,200 Speaker 4: situation where they have the second and fourth pick in 1646 01:33:12,240 --> 01:33:16,320 Speaker 4: the draft. Sure could, right if they if Jaet the 1647 01:33:16,360 --> 01:33:19,360 Speaker 4: fourth pick and a Trey Giannis for the first or 1648 01:33:19,400 --> 01:33:22,559 Speaker 4: the second like that. Now, that's how you chan, That's 1649 01:33:22,560 --> 01:33:24,799 Speaker 4: how you flip. That's how you flip your franchise. 1650 01:33:24,840 --> 01:33:25,840 Speaker 3: That's how you start over. 1651 01:33:26,120 --> 01:33:30,280 Speaker 4: That's how you flip your franchise now that that that's 1652 01:33:30,360 --> 01:33:32,920 Speaker 4: something that we should you know, I can't wait for 1653 01:33:33,000 --> 01:33:37,360 Speaker 4: the draft the lottery to see who has what because 1654 01:33:37,439 --> 01:33:39,240 Speaker 4: that now we're talking. 1655 01:33:39,520 --> 01:33:40,320 Speaker 3: Now we're talking. 1656 01:33:41,479 --> 01:33:43,320 Speaker 2: I'm just a firm believer of when you're going to 1657 01:33:43,400 --> 01:33:45,719 Speaker 2: trade a star, you have to do it before everybody 1658 01:33:45,720 --> 01:33:49,360 Speaker 2: starts getting publicly mad at each other. That's when everything 1659 01:33:49,400 --> 01:33:54,280 Speaker 2: starts going downhill, and your all first go downhill. So 1660 01:33:54,960 --> 01:33:57,479 Speaker 2: I do think Milwaukee messed up there, But there are 1661 01:33:57,560 --> 01:34:02,360 Speaker 2: mathematical scenarios to what you talking about for sure that 1662 01:34:02,439 --> 01:34:05,360 Speaker 2: could come into play.

Cam Ward Geno, Smith, Tua Tongue, Bailloa, 1699 01:36:09,880 --> 01:36:16,439 Speaker 2: Joe Flacco, Jacoby Brissett, Aaron Rodgers, Bryce Young, and Tyler Shuck. 1700 01:36:17,720 --> 01:36:19,599 Speaker 3: That's the list. 1701 01:36:21,080 --> 01:36:23,400 Speaker 4: Oof, that's all over the place. 1702 01:36:26,920 --> 01:36:29,479 Speaker 3: Good lord, feel like a very good group to you. 1703 01:36:30,760 --> 01:36:31,320 Speaker 4: I mean. 1704 01:36:33,160 --> 01:36:39,000 Speaker 2: Again, Kim Ward, Geno, Smith, Tua, Flacco, Brissett, Aaron Rodgers, 1705 01:36:39,200 --> 01:36:40,240 Speaker 2: Bryce Young. 1706 01:36:40,160 --> 01:36:40,840 Speaker 3: Tyler Shuck. 1707 01:36:41,520 --> 01:36:45,280 Speaker 4: No, that's a that's a I don't know. 1708 01:36:46,680 --> 01:36:50,759 Speaker 2: That is the group of quarterbacks in the entire NFL. 1709 01:36:52,120 --> 01:36:57,480 Speaker 3: They had a worse QBR this year than Jalen Hurts. 1710 01:36:58,360 --> 01:37:03,920 Speaker 3: That's it. Wow, that's the list. Everybody else in the 1711 01:37:04,000 --> 01:37:05,000 Speaker 3: league was above him. 1712 01:37:05,920 --> 01:37:08,040 Speaker 2: You don't have to believe QBR is just one thing, 1713 01:37:09,520 --> 01:37:11,120 Speaker 2: and that's different than QB rating. 1714 01:37:11,200 --> 01:37:11,639 Speaker 3: By the way. 1715 01:37:11,760 --> 01:37:17,439 Speaker 2: QBR is the ESPN production that is analytically driven that 1716 01:37:17,600 --> 01:37:20,559 Speaker 2: basically tries to cover all aspects of quarterbacking and tell 1717 01:37:20,600 --> 01:37:23,320 Speaker 2: you who's playing well. It's kind of a little bit 1718 01:37:23,439 --> 01:37:27,880 Speaker 2: like OPS is now in baseball. 1719 01:37:28,000 --> 01:37:28,840 Speaker 3: So that's the list. 1720 01:37:29,680 --> 01:37:35,599 Speaker 2: And I say that to highlight a recent ESPN article 1721 01:37:35,920 --> 01:37:42,120 Speaker 2: that details the reported internal frustrations the organization has with 1722 01:37:42,320 --> 01:37:45,640 Speaker 2: Jalen Hurts, sources in the building saying that he's had 1723 01:37:45,680 --> 01:37:48,760 Speaker 2: a big hand in the offense becoming calcified. 1724 01:37:49,240 --> 01:37:50,479 Speaker 3: Frustrations have grown. 1725 01:37:50,920 --> 01:37:56,920 Speaker 2: Apparently he's pushed back on changes that would diversify the scheme. 1726 01:37:57,120 --> 01:38:00,519 Speaker 2: Apparently he is accused of diverting the game plan and 1727 01:38:00,640 --> 01:38:05,000 Speaker 2: changes play calls to what some feel is an excessive degree. 1728 01:38:05,360 --> 01:38:12,559 Speaker 4: Oh snap, what do you think of Jalen Hurts. I 1729 01:38:12,560 --> 01:38:15,040 Speaker 4: think he's a Super Bowl MVP. 1730 01:38:15,400 --> 01:38:16,960 Speaker 3: Okay, that's a fair answer. 1731 01:38:18,280 --> 01:38:20,360 Speaker 2: I saw someone else kind of you know how banged 1732 01:38:20,439 --> 01:38:25,400 Speaker 2: up the forty nine ers, especially on defense, just a 1733 01:38:25,760 --> 01:38:26,879 Speaker 2: skeleton crew. 1734 01:38:29,200 --> 01:38:30,120 Speaker 3: By the end of the year. 1735 01:38:31,280 --> 01:38:36,000 Speaker 2: And we watched, for example, even though they lost that 1736 01:38:36,080 --> 01:38:41,840 Speaker 2: football game, we watched Caleb Williams towards that defense. We 1737 01:38:41,920 --> 01:38:45,960 Speaker 2: watched Sam Darnold towards that defense. We watched Philip Rivers 1738 01:38:47,360 --> 01:38:51,000 Speaker 2: score some points on that defense. But boy, they bottled 1739 01:38:51,080 --> 01:38:54,960 Speaker 2: up Jalen Hurts in Philadelphia in a playoff game. 1740 01:38:59,640 --> 01:39:05,320 Speaker 4: Yeah. Look, I'm I've never been all in on Philly 1741 01:39:05,439 --> 01:39:10,360 Speaker 4: except for Sakon Barkley, and this year they went away 1742 01:39:10,360 --> 01:39:15,080 Speaker 4: from that. Yep, Jalen Hurts has never been a prolific 1743 01:39:15,200 --> 01:39:18,880 Speaker 4: passer of the football by any stretch of the imagination. 1744 01:39:19,680 --> 01:39:23,680 Speaker 4: Can he makes some throws? Yeah, But also in the 1745 01:39:23,720 --> 01:39:30,920 Speaker 4: same breath, he's also had four offensive coordinators, So true, 1746 01:39:31,479 --> 01:39:37,160 Speaker 4: that's difficult to do. To always have to come up 1747 01:39:37,200 --> 01:39:42,280 Speaker 4: with a new system and the new terminology. You're always 1748 01:39:42,360 --> 01:39:50,280 Speaker 4: starting back at the ground floor. How many offensive coordinators 1749 01:39:50,320 --> 01:39:55,760 Speaker 4: did Tom Brady have in his nineteen years? And tamp 1750 01:39:56,000 --> 01:39:56,439 Speaker 4: I mean in. 1751 01:39:58,280 --> 01:40:00,960 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, pretty much right. 1752 01:40:01,200 --> 01:40:06,639 Speaker 4: How many offensive coordinators are play callers as Patrick Mahomes 1753 01:40:06,680 --> 01:40:17,920 Speaker 4: had mm hmm, rock party, right. So it's hard to 1754 01:40:18,600 --> 01:40:22,360 Speaker 4: always reset and then someone comes in with an idea 1755 01:40:22,400 --> 01:40:25,479 Speaker 4: of who you are and what you can do. So 1756 01:40:25,560 --> 01:40:27,320 Speaker 4: I think after he won the Super Bowl and the 1757 01:40:27,320 --> 01:40:30,559 Speaker 4: Super Bowl MVP, he was like, I'm pushing back. I 1758 01:40:30,560 --> 01:40:34,439 Speaker 4: don't want to do that. I don't want to do that. 1759 01:40:35,600 --> 01:40:39,920 Speaker 4: I don't like that. And so if the trust and 1760 01:40:39,960 --> 01:40:42,360 Speaker 4: the and the respect isn't there, then you'll have this 1761 01:40:42,520 --> 01:40:47,920 Speaker 4: these uh you know, these stories coming out. I can 1762 01:40:48,000 --> 01:40:53,280 Speaker 4: see that. I could see a player who's gone to 1763 01:40:53,360 --> 01:40:57,240 Speaker 4: the Super Bowl twice outplayed the quarterback both times in 1764 01:40:57,320 --> 01:41:04,200 Speaker 4: the Super Bowl one super Bowl MVP pushing back on 1765 01:41:04,439 --> 01:41:08,519 Speaker 4: excessive changing. I could see that. I can't be mad 1766 01:41:08,560 --> 01:41:11,880 Speaker 4: at him about that. That's the whole thing. Like, I'm 1767 01:41:11,920 --> 01:41:14,800 Speaker 4: not like, oh this is no I get it now. 1768 01:41:15,800 --> 01:41:19,200 Speaker 4: I say all of that to say, Jalen Hurts is 1769 01:41:19,200 --> 01:41:23,080 Speaker 4: not a prolific thrower of the football, right, so unless 1770 01:41:23,080 --> 01:41:28,920 Speaker 4: the offensive coordinators coming in to make his life easier, Yeah, 1771 01:41:28,920 --> 01:41:29,800 Speaker 4: I'll push back too. 1772 01:41:31,080 --> 01:41:34,320 Speaker 2: Okay, that's fair. This could be a hell of a year. Man, 1773 01:41:34,920 --> 01:41:36,960 Speaker 2: It's gonna be a hell of a year because and 1774 01:41:37,040 --> 01:41:40,600 Speaker 2: first of all, if anybody's wondering about the Jalen Hurts contract, 1775 01:41:41,880 --> 01:41:44,479 Speaker 2: the potential out does not come for two more seasons. 1776 01:41:46,360 --> 01:41:48,519 Speaker 3: Obviously you're still allowed out of it. 1777 01:41:48,600 --> 01:41:52,640 Speaker 2: But that would be Cousins or Russell Wilson esque in 1778 01:41:52,800 --> 01:41:57,040 Speaker 2: terms of the financial sort of negative windfall that the 1779 01:41:57,080 --> 01:42:00,560 Speaker 2: Eagles would experience. And I'm not say adjustment that the 1780 01:42:00,560 --> 01:42:02,880 Speaker 2: Eagles are even thinking about moving off of them, nor 1781 01:42:02,920 --> 01:42:04,320 Speaker 2: do they have another option anyway. 1782 01:42:05,439 --> 01:42:08,599 Speaker 3: But there is a route, there's a path. 1783 01:42:09,040 --> 01:42:11,439 Speaker 2: I'm not saying that this is the case right now, 1784 01:42:12,160 --> 01:42:15,960 Speaker 2: but there's a path to him being the fourth rated 1785 01:42:16,040 --> 01:42:17,800 Speaker 2: quarterback in the division at the end of this year. 1786 01:42:20,080 --> 01:42:22,760 Speaker 4: Yeah, there's a path. Yes, it's a path. 1787 01:42:23,600 --> 01:42:29,719 Speaker 3: Right, so you know there's that it's very similar. 1788 01:42:29,760 --> 01:42:32,880 Speaker 2: And by the way, Steph Curry entering the game for 1789 01:42:32,960 --> 01:42:36,760 Speaker 2: the Warriors mid first quarter, they're up by three, so 1790 01:42:36,800 --> 01:42:38,080 Speaker 2: we'll keep you up to date on. 1791 01:42:38,080 --> 01:42:39,800 Speaker 4: How he looks. 1792 01:42:40,560 --> 01:42:43,960 Speaker 2: And there is a path that we create each hour 1793 01:42:44,400 --> 01:42:46,559 Speaker 2: from us to Steve de Sager. 1794 01:42:47,360 --> 01:42:50,000 Speaker 7: Good evening once again, is all right? Thanks and Steph 1795 01:42:50,080 --> 01:42:52,599 Speaker 7: Curry after that assist as the Warriors of twenty two 1796 01:42:52,600 --> 01:42:55,439 Speaker 7: to seventeen on Houston in a late NBA game tonight. 1797 01:42:55,479 --> 01:42:57,360 Speaker 7: That is a Houston team that has won five in 1798 01:42:57,400 --> 01:42:59,519 Speaker 7: a row. Notable that Curry's on the court, even if 1799 01:42:59,520 --> 01:43:02,120 Speaker 7: it's off the bench because he'd missed the previous twenty 1800 01:43:02,160 --> 01:43:05,080 Speaker 7: seven games with the bad knee. Clippers up eighty eight 1801 01:43:05,160 --> 01:43:08,639 Speaker 7: sixty six at Sacramento mid third quarter and the Lakers 1802 01:43:08,640 --> 01:43:11,920 Speaker 7: wound up coming back to make it interesting but losing 1803 01:43:12,000 --> 01:43:15,280 Speaker 7: at Dallas one thirty four one twenty eight Lebron James 1804 01:43:15,280 --> 01:43:19,320 Speaker 7: thirty points, fifteen assists. Laker reporter Mike Trudell pointing out 1805 01:43:19,360 --> 01:43:22,280 Speaker 7: that LA holds the three seed in the West via 1806 01:43:22,400 --> 01:43:25,840 Speaker 7: tiebreaker over Denver. At LA's edge over Houston a game 1807 01:43:25,880 --> 01:43:29,320 Speaker 7: and a half right now plus tiebreaker and also La 1808 01:43:29,439 --> 01:43:32,800 Speaker 7: secured a better record than Minnesota with the Minnesota loss 1809 01:43:32,840 --> 01:43:35,080 Speaker 7: at home to Charlotte tonight one twenty two to one 1810 01:43:35,080 --> 01:43:37,640 Speaker 7: to oh eight. Mansota's Anthony Edwards was out with a 1811 01:43:37,720 --> 01:43:40,599 Speaker 7: knee injuries, missed eight to last ten games. LaMelo Ball 1812 01:43:40,720 --> 01:43:43,840 Speaker 7: thirty five points for the Hornets. And then there's Oklahoma 1813 01:43:43,840 --> 01:43:48,080 Speaker 7: City sixty two and sixteen for the defending champs.

Didn't that's also an. 2016 01:55:40,200 --> 01:55:42,920 Speaker 4: If, yeah but it's just a little bit different than 2017 01:55:43,160 --> 01:55:44,320 Speaker 4: what you was just throwing out. 2018 01:55:44,360 --> 01:55:47,640 Speaker 3: There, well, NO i really don't think it.

Close 2022 01:55:59,400 --> 01:56:02,080 Speaker 2: but you, know once upon a Time butler threw up 2023 01:56:02,080 --> 01:56:05,560 Speaker 2: a shot from just inside half court for the national 2024 01:56:05,640 --> 01:56:08,360 Speaker 2: championship and it went in and then went, out and we're, not, like, 2025 01:56:08,440 --> 01:56:12,600 Speaker 2: well tantalizingly.

Sharp like they 2043 01:57:10,680 --> 01:57:14,680 Speaker 2: bring a review into, baseball a handful of years. Ago 2044 01:57:14,800 --> 01:57:19,680 Speaker 2: and let's say someone's trying to steal second base and 2045 01:57:20,760 --> 01:57:24,520 Speaker 2: they beat the throw. There but because the human body 2046 01:57:24,800 --> 01:57:27,320 Speaker 2: is the way it is and it's running full, speed 2047 01:57:28,360 --> 01:57:35,760 Speaker 2: as the body hits second, base it invariably bounces just 2048 01:57:35,800 --> 01:57:39,600 Speaker 2: a little, bit like just an. Inch and if you 2049 01:57:39,680 --> 01:57:43,720 Speaker 2: slow this down to super super slow mo, replay if 2050 01:57:43,760 --> 01:57:48,160 Speaker 2: a shortstop catches the ball from the catcher and keeps 2051 01:57:48,200 --> 01:57:52,280 Speaker 2: the glove on the hitter the whole time as they 2052 01:57:52,320 --> 01:57:56,640 Speaker 2: cross the base and his body bounces just a fraction 2053 01:57:56,800 --> 01:58:02,600 Speaker 2: of an inch in, theory that was not the spirit 2054 01:58:02,640 --> 01:58:05,040 Speaker 2: of the. Rule that was not the spirit of the. 2055 01:58:05,120 --> 01:58:07,360 Speaker 2: Rule the spirit of the rule is we want to 2056 01:58:07,400 --> 01:58:10,680 Speaker 2: start getting things right with regard to, whether like did 2057 01:58:10,680 --> 01:58:12,760 Speaker 2: the ball beat you, there and did we tag you out? 2058 01:58:13,640 --> 01:58:18,200 Speaker 2: Not we have the technology now that shows things so 2059 01:58:18,520 --> 01:58:21,840 Speaker 2: intricate that we can now start calling people out who 2060 01:58:21,880 --> 01:58:25,240 Speaker 2: completely beat the throat of the base and slid. Normally 2061 01:58:25,840 --> 01:58:29,480 Speaker 2: and except for, now there's a human body, inevitability and 2062 01:58:29,480 --> 01:58:31,320 Speaker 2: we're going to start calling guys out because of. That 2063 01:58:32,400 --> 01:58:36,160 Speaker 2: that's not the spirit of the. Rule but even you 2064 01:58:36,320 --> 01:58:43,080 Speaker 2: just said, it he's. OUT i, Mean i'm Playing devil's 2065 01:58:43,120 --> 01:58:48,760 Speaker 2: advocate here.
