0:00:43.280 --> 0:00:46.200
<v Speaker 2>In episode one fifty six, What's Right with Nick Right?

0:00:46.280 --> 0:00:50.080
<v Speaker 2>Game one of the NBA Finals is upon us and

0:00:51.040 --> 0:00:55.760
<v Speaker 2>one of my weaknesses as a talk show host, and

0:00:55.840 --> 0:00:58.160
<v Speaker 2>let's be honest, they're not many, but one of them

0:00:59.040 --> 0:01:06.280
<v Speaker 2>is I don't love the game preview. I love the recap,

0:01:06.480 --> 0:01:09.720
<v Speaker 2>I love the big picture stuff. But when we are

0:01:10.240 --> 0:01:13.880
<v Speaker 2>on the day of a game, the what we especially

0:01:14.000 --> 0:01:17.240
<v Speaker 2>before a series even starts, and we don't have any

0:01:17.280 --> 0:01:20.240
<v Speaker 2>real data to go off of aside from what they've

0:01:20.280 --> 0:01:23.760
<v Speaker 2>done against other teams, I don't It's not my favorite.

0:01:23.800 --> 0:01:26.240
<v Speaker 2>I don't think it's what I'm actually the best at

0:01:27.200 --> 0:01:29.959
<v Speaker 2>and I just really want to get to the game.

0:01:30.319 --> 0:01:33.479
<v Speaker 2>So with that in mind, I am going to try

0:01:33.560 --> 0:01:36.880
<v Speaker 2>something today that I don't know that I've tried in

0:01:36.920 --> 0:01:41.479
<v Speaker 2>a year, Diora. I'm gonna hit the clock today. We're

0:01:41.520 --> 0:01:46.120
<v Speaker 2>gonna have a nice, sharp, Okay, we're gonna have a nice, crisp,

0:01:46.640 --> 0:01:48.400
<v Speaker 2>thirty five minute episode.

0:01:48.840 --> 0:01:49.760
<v Speaker 3>Absolutely, no way.

0:01:50.280 --> 0:01:51.360
<v Speaker 2>You don't think I can do it.

0:01:51.520 --> 0:01:52.120
<v Speaker 3>No, I don't.

0:01:52.440 --> 0:01:57.840
<v Speaker 2>You're doubting my ability. It's going to be concise to

0:01:57.920 --> 0:02:01.960
<v Speaker 2>the point. We're gonna get right to it. We're gonna move, move, move.

0:02:02.040 --> 0:02:05.360
<v Speaker 2>So with that in mind, yes, you can't ask questions

0:02:05.360 --> 0:02:07.880
<v Speaker 2>in the chat. We will get to those in about

0:02:07.920 --> 0:02:10.440
<v Speaker 2>twenty five minutes, which will be the time we get

0:02:10.440 --> 0:02:13.760
<v Speaker 2>to the CEA block. Here is what missed the cut

0:02:13.960 --> 0:02:19.200
<v Speaker 2>for today's show. Jimmy Butler has trademarked Jimmy Buckets. A

0:02:19.440 --> 0:02:23.560
<v Speaker 2>nineteen year old wins that Silly Cheese race in Great

0:02:23.600 --> 0:02:30.120
<v Speaker 2>Britain while unconscious, and Josh Hart tweeted about tasting breast milk.

0:02:30.720 --> 0:02:35.760
<v Speaker 2>Steven A was very bothered by this. I don't really

0:02:35.800 --> 0:02:38.760
<v Speaker 2>have a take on it. His tweet was, have y'all

0:02:38.760 --> 0:02:42.320
<v Speaker 2>ever tasted y'all significant other breast milk asking for a friend.

0:02:42.800 --> 0:02:45.320
<v Speaker 2>I think he didn't followed up. Somebody said it tastes

0:02:45.360 --> 0:02:48.800
<v Speaker 2>like almond milk, and he said it tastes better at

0:02:48.919 --> 0:02:51.760
<v Speaker 2>least to see. C. J. McCollums says, sick conversation heard

0:02:51.800 --> 0:02:53.919
<v Speaker 2>it goes down like almond milk, and I do believe

0:02:53.919 --> 0:02:56.679
<v Speaker 2>he said it actually tastes better. However, we're trying to

0:02:56.760 --> 0:03:00.639
<v Speaker 2>hit the clock. We're trying to be concise today, Deora,

0:03:01.680 --> 0:03:02.760
<v Speaker 2>what are we leading off with?

0:03:03.280 --> 0:03:06.480
<v Speaker 3>So the Heat a coming off a grueling seven game series.

0:03:06.560 --> 0:03:09.880
<v Speaker 3>Now they are traveling to the Mile High City on

0:03:09.880 --> 0:03:13.600
<v Speaker 3>on little rest. Even Lebron says the altitude is no joke.

0:03:14.000 --> 0:03:16.560
<v Speaker 3>In the finals, if the home team wins Game one,

0:03:16.960 --> 0:03:19.320
<v Speaker 3>they win the series seventy five percent of the time.

0:03:19.840 --> 0:03:22.320
<v Speaker 3>So are the Heat drawing dead in game one and

0:03:22.400 --> 0:03:23.600
<v Speaker 3>therefore the series.

0:03:24.120 --> 0:03:26.880
<v Speaker 2>I do not believe the Heater drawing dead in game one.

0:03:26.960 --> 0:03:29.760
<v Speaker 2>I certainly don't believe they're drawing dead in this series.

0:03:30.040 --> 0:03:38.040
<v Speaker 2>And I think there are some factors that work in

0:03:38.120 --> 0:03:42.920
<v Speaker 2>the very short term in the Heat favor here. So

0:03:44.360 --> 0:03:47.920
<v Speaker 2>I think the fact that the Heat have played so

0:03:48.120 --> 0:03:51.480
<v Speaker 2>many more playoff games than Denver has well. I shouldn't

0:03:51.520 --> 0:03:54.400
<v Speaker 2>say so many more, but they have played more three

0:03:54.440 --> 0:03:59.000
<v Speaker 2>more games than Denver has, and the fact that they

0:03:59.320 --> 0:04:04.240
<v Speaker 2>just played US seven game series could hurt Miami later

0:04:04.600 --> 0:04:07.680
<v Speaker 2>in the finals. I don't think they are going to

0:04:07.760 --> 0:04:12.200
<v Speaker 2>be fatigued in game one of the finals. I listen.

0:04:12.360 --> 0:04:15.360
<v Speaker 2>I've talked a lot about the altitude and the altitude

0:04:15.400 --> 0:04:20.520
<v Speaker 2>being a problem for Denver's opponents, but that's most notable

0:04:20.880 --> 0:04:23.760
<v Speaker 2>when you're playing a team with Chris Paul till he

0:04:23.839 --> 0:04:28.360
<v Speaker 2>got hurt, and Kevin Durant and then Lebron James, older guys,

0:04:28.920 --> 0:04:31.839
<v Speaker 2>then playing a team that has Jimmy Butler and a

0:04:31.880 --> 0:04:34.040
<v Speaker 2>bunch of young guys, and I guess Kevin loves an

0:04:34.040 --> 0:04:36.400
<v Speaker 2>older guys well, but he doesn't play much. So I

0:04:36.400 --> 0:04:39.200
<v Speaker 2>don't think the altitude is gonna be as much of

0:04:39.240 --> 0:04:45.320
<v Speaker 2>a factor for Miami in Game one. What a legitimate,

0:04:45.800 --> 0:04:53.120
<v Speaker 2>tangible advantage that I believe Miami has is they have

0:04:53.360 --> 0:04:59.039
<v Speaker 2>been there before. Jimmy Bam Heroes obviously not playing, He'll

0:04:59.080 --> 0:05:02.800
<v Speaker 2>be there eventually. Hell, even Gabe Vincent, Kevin Love who

0:05:02.800 --> 0:05:07.280
<v Speaker 2>we mentioned Spoe. They have all played except for Love

0:05:07.640 --> 0:05:11.000
<v Speaker 2>with the heat in the finals. Love played in four

0:05:11.160 --> 0:05:16.640
<v Speaker 2>finals with the Calves, this is not the biggest game

0:05:16.720 --> 0:05:22.160
<v Speaker 2>of their lives. For everyone that matters on Denver except

0:05:22.160 --> 0:05:26.000
<v Speaker 2>for KCP, this is the biggest game of their life.

0:05:26.520 --> 0:05:31.880
<v Speaker 2>I think that experience edge and whether or not the

0:05:31.920 --> 0:05:39.400
<v Speaker 2>opening moments of the game are a little overwhelming mitigates

0:05:39.440 --> 0:05:44.039
<v Speaker 2>somewhat the edge Denver has from what will be an

0:05:44.040 --> 0:05:47.599
<v Speaker 2>insane home crowd in the opening minutes of the game.

0:05:47.760 --> 0:05:50.839
<v Speaker 2>If you remember Game one of the Conference Finals, they

0:05:50.920 --> 0:05:53.120
<v Speaker 2>won that game based on the first quarter and the

0:05:53.120 --> 0:05:56.919
<v Speaker 2>crowd was absolutely electric. I expect the crowd to be

0:05:57.120 --> 0:06:02.839
<v Speaker 2>absolutely electric again. But I do wonder if for really

0:06:03.000 --> 0:06:05.560
<v Speaker 2>everyone butt Jokic. I don't think it'll be too much

0:06:05.560 --> 0:06:09.640
<v Speaker 2>for Jokic at all, but for Jamal Murray, Michael Porter Junior,

0:06:10.080 --> 0:06:13.960
<v Speaker 2>Aaron Gordon, if there's gonna be a bit of holy

0:06:14.400 --> 0:06:19.960
<v Speaker 2>we're in the finals, and how much that will impact them.

0:06:20.760 --> 0:06:25.479
<v Speaker 2>I also think to get back to the rest edge. Now,

0:06:25.520 --> 0:06:28.000
<v Speaker 2>I get it, teams with this type of rest edge

0:06:28.000 --> 0:06:31.200
<v Speaker 2>are I think eight and one in the last nine

0:06:31.279 --> 0:06:35.000
<v Speaker 2>NBA Finals in the series, eight and one in game one,

0:06:35.320 --> 0:06:39.919
<v Speaker 2>so this is butt would be bucking that trend. I

0:06:40.160 --> 0:06:46.720
<v Speaker 2>also think that Miami rolling the way they've been rolling.

0:06:49.880 --> 0:06:53.680
<v Speaker 2>Denver was playing better than any team in the league

0:06:53.680 --> 0:06:59.520
<v Speaker 2>this postseason, but because of the sweep, now is it

0:06:59.560 --> 0:07:04.160
<v Speaker 2>a week and a half of not playing, And I

0:07:04.240 --> 0:07:08.440
<v Speaker 2>know this is the old rest versus rust. I think

0:07:09.240 --> 0:07:14.040
<v Speaker 2>the rest edge will help Denver more as the series

0:07:14.200 --> 0:07:17.960
<v Speaker 2>drags on than it will help them in Game one.

0:07:18.920 --> 0:07:22.360
<v Speaker 2>I think Miami being in a rhythm and feeling a

0:07:22.360 --> 0:07:25.800
<v Speaker 2>little rested in that going from playing every other day

0:07:26.200 --> 0:07:28.760
<v Speaker 2>as they were in the Eastern Conference Finals to having

0:07:28.800 --> 0:07:31.760
<v Speaker 2>a few days off, So I don't think Denver's rest

0:07:31.840 --> 0:07:36.400
<v Speaker 2>edge will be massive here. I also, as I talked

0:07:36.400 --> 0:07:44.400
<v Speaker 2>about last week, recognize that Denver is on paper, the

0:07:44.480 --> 0:07:51.800
<v Speaker 2>better team, and Yokich is in route to being recognized,

0:07:51.880 --> 0:07:55.800
<v Speaker 2>if he's not already by most as the best player

0:07:55.840 --> 0:07:59.840
<v Speaker 2>in the league. From a pure x's and oh's standpoint,

0:08:00.800 --> 0:08:07.080
<v Speaker 2>Denver should win the series. But it sure as hell

0:08:07.160 --> 0:08:09.840
<v Speaker 2>to me feels like there is something special about this

0:08:09.960 --> 0:08:14.520
<v Speaker 2>Miami team. They have been banging on the door for

0:08:14.680 --> 0:08:19.600
<v Speaker 2>four years. I don't think this is their last shot,

0:08:19.640 --> 0:08:24.200
<v Speaker 2>but it is definitely their best shot. And while I

0:08:24.240 --> 0:08:29.360
<v Speaker 2>think Michael Malone is a good coach, I think Eric

0:08:29.400 --> 0:08:33.559
<v Speaker 2>Spolstra is the best coach in basketball, and I think

0:08:33.640 --> 0:08:38.040
<v Speaker 2>Jimmy Butler is going to rise to the occasion. And lastly,

0:08:40.040 --> 0:08:47.959
<v Speaker 2>the Nuggets this year are unbeatable when Yokich has ninth

0:08:48.040 --> 0:08:53.120
<v Speaker 2>biggest basically double digit assists and a losing record. When

0:08:53.200 --> 0:08:59.559
<v Speaker 2>he doesn't, jokicch is basically making all the same passes

0:08:59.600 --> 0:09:03.520
<v Speaker 2>every year. The question what that really is an indication

0:09:03.679 --> 0:09:11.440
<v Speaker 2>of If the others are hitting shots, Denver is almost

0:09:11.440 --> 0:09:19.640
<v Speaker 2>impossible to beat. Are the others going to be overwhelmed

0:09:19.720 --> 0:09:25.120
<v Speaker 2>by the finals? And is Jamal Murray going to build

0:09:25.200 --> 0:09:31.760
<v Speaker 2>on the best playoff series of his career the Western

0:09:31.760 --> 0:09:35.360
<v Speaker 2>Conference Finals sweep against the Lakers, or is Jamal Murray

0:09:35.600 --> 0:09:38.480
<v Speaker 2>going to regress to the mean a bit in the

0:09:38.600 --> 0:09:42.360
<v Speaker 2>NBA Finals Because I don't this is a this is

0:09:42.480 --> 0:09:45.880
<v Speaker 2>not a I don't think Jokic is gonna show up.

0:09:45.920 --> 0:09:47.920
<v Speaker 2>I think he's gonna run out of gas. That's why

0:09:47.960 --> 0:09:54.040
<v Speaker 2>I'm picking Miami. It's a I like Miami's coach more,

0:09:55.480 --> 0:09:59.880
<v Speaker 2>even though they're undrafted guys, because of the rhythm that

0:10:00.120 --> 0:10:03.800
<v Speaker 2>they're in. I like what I think Miami's others can

0:10:03.840 --> 0:10:08.360
<v Speaker 2>do more in this series. I like Miami's defense more.

0:10:08.800 --> 0:10:11.800
<v Speaker 2>I like the fact that Miami is going to be

0:10:11.840 --> 0:10:16.240
<v Speaker 2>able to add midway through the series, one of the

0:10:16.280 --> 0:10:19.800
<v Speaker 2>most dynamic scorers on their team, and a little bit

0:10:19.840 --> 0:10:24.640
<v Speaker 2>of the as Bruce said on the TV show Pixie Dust,

0:10:24.679 --> 0:10:31.400
<v Speaker 2>of the sports gods and Miami's time being now and

0:10:31.520 --> 0:10:35.520
<v Speaker 2>Denver's time maybe being next year, the year after coming

0:10:35.600 --> 0:10:40.160
<v Speaker 2>so close, losing a finals, coming back better, and then

0:10:40.240 --> 0:10:42.880
<v Speaker 2>breaking the door down, similar to what Miami would have

0:10:42.920 --> 0:10:46.040
<v Speaker 2>gone through making the finals a few years ago, making

0:10:46.080 --> 0:10:48.960
<v Speaker 2>Game seven the Conference finals last year. I'm going with

0:10:49.000 --> 0:10:52.160
<v Speaker 2>Miami tonight, and I'm going with Miami in the series next.

0:10:52.520 --> 0:10:55.200
<v Speaker 3>Okay, playoff. Jimmy has been a different beast this year.

0:10:55.640 --> 0:10:58.960
<v Speaker 3>He even predicted the future, offering finals tickets to Cook

0:10:58.960 --> 0:11:02.280
<v Speaker 3>Cook Golf during the season. If the Heat win, they'd

0:11:02.320 --> 0:11:05.920
<v Speaker 3>cap off perhaps the best four year stretch in the league. Yeah,

0:11:05.960 --> 0:11:09.600
<v Speaker 3>is it possible the time after KD and the Warriors

0:11:09.760 --> 0:11:11.680
<v Speaker 3>will be the Jimmy Butler era.

0:11:12.640 --> 0:11:14.720
<v Speaker 2>No, I don't think it's gonna Listen, I don't think

0:11:14.760 --> 0:11:19.800
<v Speaker 2>we're about to have a Jimmy Butler era. I also

0:11:19.920 --> 0:11:20.800
<v Speaker 2>don't think the.

0:11:20.800 --> 0:11:21.760
<v Speaker 4>League is.

0:11:23.600 --> 0:11:30.440
<v Speaker 2>Leaning towards eras right now. I think that we're about

0:11:30.480 --> 0:11:35.080
<v Speaker 2>to have for the first time in more than forty years,

0:11:36.120 --> 0:11:41.760
<v Speaker 2>five different champions in five years, it's going to have

0:11:41.880 --> 0:11:46.560
<v Speaker 2>been the Warriors, the Raptors, the Lakers. I'm sorry for

0:11:47.200 --> 0:11:51.440
<v Speaker 2>starting with the Raptors, the Raptors, the Lakers, the Bucks,

0:11:51.840 --> 0:11:55.760
<v Speaker 2>the Warriors, and now either the Heat or the Nuggets.

0:11:57.040 --> 0:11:59.719
<v Speaker 2>So I don't think Miami is about to pop off

0:11:59.760 --> 0:12:05.880
<v Speaker 2>some dynasty, but I do think we have to acknowledge

0:12:06.080 --> 0:12:11.680
<v Speaker 2>that since Jimmy Butler has been there, if they win

0:12:11.800 --> 0:12:17.760
<v Speaker 2>this title, no one has been more successful. And in fact,

0:12:17.840 --> 0:12:21.280
<v Speaker 2>if we just go to I mean in the last

0:12:21.480 --> 0:12:26.600
<v Speaker 2>five years, the year before Jimmy Butler got there, if

0:12:26.600 --> 0:12:29.800
<v Speaker 2>they win this title, no one has been more successful.

0:12:30.840 --> 0:12:33.440
<v Speaker 2>If they win the title, they will have one championship,

0:12:33.520 --> 0:12:38.680
<v Speaker 2>two finals appearances, and three Conference finals appearances in the

0:12:38.760 --> 0:12:44.480
<v Speaker 2>last five years. The Warriors in that stretch have won title,

0:12:44.600 --> 0:12:50.320
<v Speaker 2>two finals appearances, two Conference finals appearances. The Lakers have

0:12:50.400 --> 0:12:55.720
<v Speaker 2>one title, one finals appearance, two conference finals appearances, the

0:12:55.760 --> 0:13:00.360
<v Speaker 2>Bucks one title, one finals appearance, two Conference finals appearances.

0:13:01.360 --> 0:13:07.960
<v Speaker 2>The Celtics would have zero titles, one finals appearance, and

0:13:08.040 --> 0:13:12.280
<v Speaker 2>I think four conference finals appearances. The Heat will have

0:13:12.400 --> 0:13:16.640
<v Speaker 2>been the most successful team in the league over the

0:13:16.679 --> 0:13:23.160
<v Speaker 2>last half decade. They already and this is remarkable since

0:13:24.040 --> 0:13:29.679
<v Speaker 2>Jimmy got there. The Miami Heat lead the NBA in

0:13:29.800 --> 0:13:33.760
<v Speaker 2>playoff victories. They're at thirty seven. The Celtics are at

0:13:33.800 --> 0:13:37.240
<v Speaker 2>thirty six, The Lakers and Nuggets are at twenty six.

0:13:37.760 --> 0:13:42.000
<v Speaker 2>I think the Warriors are at like thirty two, and

0:13:42.400 --> 0:13:50.600
<v Speaker 2>that is based on the culture of the organization, their

0:13:50.640 --> 0:13:58.160
<v Speaker 2>ability to find talent where others can't, exceptional coaching, and

0:13:58.440 --> 0:14:00.840
<v Speaker 2>one of the very best playoffs for from in the world.

0:14:00.880 --> 0:14:02.800
<v Speaker 2>And Jimmy Butler next.

0:14:03.080 --> 0:14:07.000
<v Speaker 3>Okay, and you said on TV that Jimmy has more

0:14:07.040 --> 0:14:09.440
<v Speaker 3>to gain than Jokic if he wins a ring. But

0:14:09.640 --> 0:14:12.280
<v Speaker 3>throughout the year you've said Jokic has the pressure, the

0:14:12.320 --> 0:14:15.880
<v Speaker 3>most pressure to win a ring. How can Jimmy have

0:14:15.960 --> 0:14:19.200
<v Speaker 3>more to game gain if Yokic has more to lose.

0:14:19.440 --> 0:14:22.160
<v Speaker 2>Well, here's the thing. I actually don't think Jokic has

0:14:22.520 --> 0:14:26.760
<v Speaker 2>more to lose. Uh. I think that Jokic has won

0:14:26.840 --> 0:14:31.400
<v Speaker 2>everyone over. I think that it is to me not

0:14:31.560 --> 0:14:35.600
<v Speaker 2>realistic that Jokic is going to just be awful in

0:14:35.640 --> 0:14:40.800
<v Speaker 2>these finals. He's going to be somewhere from good to extraordinary,

0:14:41.320 --> 0:14:43.840
<v Speaker 2>and if the Nuggets don't win, it's going to be

0:14:43.880 --> 0:14:47.080
<v Speaker 2>more about what the heat did or what Jokic's teammates

0:14:47.080 --> 0:14:52.160
<v Speaker 2>didn't do, than about Jokic failing. So there was to me,

0:14:52.320 --> 0:14:56.680
<v Speaker 2>there was massive, massive pressure on Jokic this year to

0:14:56.960 --> 0:14:59.920
<v Speaker 2>make the finals, and he did it, and he went

0:15:00.080 --> 0:15:04.240
<v Speaker 2>for Durant and Booker and then Katie and then uh

0:15:04.560 --> 0:15:08.680
<v Speaker 2>Lebron and Ad and he did it in spectacular fashion.

0:15:09.840 --> 0:15:14.120
<v Speaker 2>So yes, there will be a if they lose. All right,

0:15:14.200 --> 0:15:16.760
<v Speaker 2>Jokic at some point needs to win a ring, but

0:15:16.840 --> 0:15:20.040
<v Speaker 2>I think everyone will believe that he will at some point.

0:15:21.600 --> 0:15:24.440
<v Speaker 2>The reason so, the reason that Jimmy has more to

0:15:24.560 --> 0:15:28.760
<v Speaker 2>gain is because there are still people I said on

0:15:28.840 --> 0:15:31.960
<v Speaker 2>TV yesterday, Jimmy Butler is a top five playoff performer,

0:15:32.320 --> 0:15:37.560
<v Speaker 2>and people argued with me about it. Nobody thinks he's

0:15:37.600 --> 0:15:41.320
<v Speaker 2>a top five overall player in the league. But the

0:15:41.400 --> 0:15:48.680
<v Speaker 2>results in the postseason are undeniable. And if they win

0:15:48.800 --> 0:15:57.000
<v Speaker 2>the championship, it's an all time championship. Because he doesn't

0:15:57.040 --> 0:16:01.200
<v Speaker 2>have any other great players, they worthy a seed. And

0:16:02.120 --> 0:16:05.640
<v Speaker 2>while I won't call him the best player in the world,

0:16:08.320 --> 0:16:13.080
<v Speaker 2>there are two guys at this point that everyone thinks

0:16:14.080 --> 0:16:17.400
<v Speaker 2>are the best players in the world, Jannis and Jokic.

0:16:18.080 --> 0:16:21.920
<v Speaker 2>If they win the title, Jimmy would have beaten both

0:16:21.960 --> 0:16:28.280
<v Speaker 2>of them with inferior teammates. And so I just think

0:16:28.360 --> 0:16:34.880
<v Speaker 2>that what he has to gain is a legendary status

0:16:35.640 --> 0:16:43.120
<v Speaker 2>and there is no comp for this career. The guy's

0:16:43.320 --> 0:16:45.760
<v Speaker 2>second round picker, the last pick of the first round.

0:16:46.440 --> 0:16:48.320
<v Speaker 2>The team that drafts him is like, Oh, he's better

0:16:48.360 --> 0:16:51.520
<v Speaker 2>than we thought, but he's not worth the max. They

0:16:51.600 --> 0:16:55.600
<v Speaker 2>trade him away. He goes to Minnesota. Minnesota has their

0:16:55.640 --> 0:16:59.680
<v Speaker 2>only postseason success of this entire town Zra with him.

0:17:00.680 --> 0:17:03.000
<v Speaker 2>They then get sick of him. He goes to Philly.

0:17:03.400 --> 0:17:07.920
<v Speaker 2>Philly has the best playoffs they have had in any

0:17:08.000 --> 0:17:11.320
<v Speaker 2>year with him Beid. With him, they come within a

0:17:11.359 --> 0:17:14.119
<v Speaker 2>buzzer beater in Game seven of Round two of maybe

0:17:14.160 --> 0:17:17.240
<v Speaker 2>going to the NBA Finals, certainly going to the conference finals.

0:17:18.440 --> 0:17:22.160
<v Speaker 2>He then goes to Miami. They instantly make a finals.

0:17:22.160 --> 0:17:24.639
<v Speaker 2>People call it a fluke. Two years later they're the

0:17:24.680 --> 0:17:28.920
<v Speaker 2>one seed and come within a shot of making another finals.

0:17:29.040 --> 0:17:32.000
<v Speaker 2>And then this year they're in there for a guy

0:17:32.040 --> 0:17:35.600
<v Speaker 2>who in the regular season is a good but not

0:17:35.720 --> 0:17:39.600
<v Speaker 2>a great player. There is no comp for it. That's

0:17:39.720 --> 0:17:43.440
<v Speaker 2>why he has the most to gain. I actually think

0:17:43.520 --> 0:17:46.400
<v Speaker 2>neither one of these teams has much to lose here

0:17:46.880 --> 0:17:49.840
<v Speaker 2>because you might say there's pressure on Denver because they're

0:17:49.920 --> 0:17:55.160
<v Speaker 2>such heavy favorites. But if Miami beats them, no one

0:17:55.240 --> 0:17:57.800
<v Speaker 2>is going to be able to deny anymore that Miami

0:17:57.960 --> 0:18:01.320
<v Speaker 2>is a special group and a special team.

0:18:01.760 --> 0:18:04.640
<v Speaker 3>Next, if you look at these teams in the finals,

0:18:04.640 --> 0:18:07.840
<v Speaker 3>they don't look like the other recent finals teams. The

0:18:07.920 --> 0:18:11.280
<v Speaker 3>Nuggets have a homegrown roster and the Heat are full

0:18:11.400 --> 0:18:15.000
<v Speaker 3>of undrafted players. Is this the finals evidence that super

0:18:15.040 --> 0:18:15.760
<v Speaker 3>teams are dead?

0:18:16.040 --> 0:18:19.760
<v Speaker 2>Well? I talked super teams a few weeks ago on

0:18:19.840 --> 0:18:20.560
<v Speaker 2>the show.

0:18:21.040 --> 0:18:21.680
<v Speaker 3>And.

0:18:22.960 --> 0:18:26.280
<v Speaker 2>The fact of the matter is the just create a

0:18:26.359 --> 0:18:31.280
<v Speaker 2>super team out of thin air. It works for Lebron

0:18:31.280 --> 0:18:36.800
<v Speaker 2>and Lebron only. The other champions are homegrown teams that

0:18:36.920 --> 0:18:41.280
<v Speaker 2>added a piece. The Warriors were already a champion. Well,

0:18:42.400 --> 0:18:45.840
<v Speaker 2>the Warriors were a homegrown team that then added Andrea

0:18:45.880 --> 0:18:48.800
<v Speaker 2>I Guidala as the final piece, and then they added

0:18:48.880 --> 0:18:52.719
<v Speaker 2>Kevin Durant as an embarrassment of riches. The Bucks were

0:18:52.760 --> 0:18:56.840
<v Speaker 2>a homegrown team that added Drew Holliday. The Raptors were

0:18:56.880 --> 0:19:01.280
<v Speaker 2>a homegrown core of everything that then added the superstarring

0:19:01.359 --> 0:19:06.000
<v Speaker 2>Kawhi Leonard. The Nuggets a homegrown team that added a

0:19:06.160 --> 0:19:09.760
<v Speaker 2>minor piece in Aaron Gordon. The Heat are a homegrown

0:19:09.880 --> 0:19:14.720
<v Speaker 2>team that added the important piece in Jimmy Butler. The

0:19:15.080 --> 0:19:20.639
<v Speaker 2>just created team. Thing that works for Lebron that hasn't

0:19:20.640 --> 0:19:25.280
<v Speaker 2>worked for anybody else, and that Diora is our first segment.

0:20:10.200 --> 0:20:11.680
<v Speaker 3>with financial gambling.

0:20:12.080 --> 0:20:18.840
<v Speaker 2>There are a million financial gambling finals, finals gambling. Fine. See,

0:20:18.880 --> 0:20:21.760
<v Speaker 2>I just don't know if you're quite ready to bring

0:20:21.840 --> 0:20:24.639
<v Speaker 2>us back into this. I messed up once. Well, you

0:20:24.640 --> 0:20:26.400
<v Speaker 2>know got you.

0:20:26.359 --> 0:20:28.359
<v Speaker 3>Mess up every day you come to work, you know,

0:20:28.560 --> 0:20:30.080
<v Speaker 3>by not letting me be the.

0:20:30.040 --> 0:20:31.719
<v Speaker 2>Main Oh okay, sorry, go ahead.

0:20:31.800 --> 0:20:33.919
<v Speaker 3>There are a million ways to bet on the finals.

0:20:34.280 --> 0:20:36.840
<v Speaker 3>It feels like a good time to bring back the offer.

0:20:36.920 --> 0:20:39.440
<v Speaker 3>But Demante's in LA and I'm too young to gamble,

0:20:39.880 --> 0:20:41.520
<v Speaker 3>so we're gonna make our own.

0:20:41.920 --> 0:20:44.120
<v Speaker 2>Okay, all right, So you guys are gonna put up

0:20:44.880 --> 0:20:49.600
<v Speaker 2>and I'll read through them for the audio audience. The

0:20:49.640 --> 0:20:55.480
<v Speaker 2>potential picks that I can have to make this parlay.

0:20:56.200 --> 0:20:59.920
<v Speaker 2>So the heat specials are Caleb Martin to score third

0:21:00.240 --> 0:21:03.880
<v Speaker 2>plus in any game is plus five point fifty. Jimmy

0:21:03.880 --> 0:21:06.920
<v Speaker 2>Butler ten or more assists in any game is plus

0:21:07.000 --> 0:21:10.760
<v Speaker 2>one fifty. And Bam out of bio to average ten

0:21:10.800 --> 0:21:17.600
<v Speaker 2>plus rebounds that's plus two hundred. So of those three options,

0:21:18.520 --> 0:21:22.040
<v Speaker 2>the only one that's attractive to me at all is

0:21:22.080 --> 0:21:24.720
<v Speaker 2>the Jimmy Butler one. And I'm gonna break out my

0:21:24.840 --> 0:21:28.880
<v Speaker 2>parlay calculator here. So Jimmy Butler to have a ten

0:21:29.000 --> 0:21:35.400
<v Speaker 2>plus assist game I think is likely. I think it's

0:21:35.440 --> 0:21:39.080
<v Speaker 2>better than fifty percent. I'm getting plus one fifty. I

0:21:39.119 --> 0:21:42.119
<v Speaker 2>don't think Caleb Martin even at five point fifty to

0:21:42.160 --> 0:21:44.600
<v Speaker 2>one or fifty five and a half to one. Pardon me,

0:21:47.560 --> 0:21:53.960
<v Speaker 2>thirty points is rich and averaging ten rebounds is very difficult.

0:21:53.960 --> 0:21:57.240
<v Speaker 2>It takes one bad rebounding game to ruin that, and

0:21:57.359 --> 0:22:00.280
<v Speaker 2>Jokers such a great rebounder. I don't like that, all right.

0:22:00.359 --> 0:22:03.920
<v Speaker 2>Let me see the Nuggets specials and see Jokics to

0:22:04.119 --> 0:22:08.760
<v Speaker 2>average a triple double is minus one twenty five. Jamal

0:22:09.000 --> 0:22:13.119
<v Speaker 2>Murray to have the highest scoring game for the Nuggets

0:22:13.240 --> 0:22:19.800
<v Speaker 2>is plus two hundred. Michael Porter Junior to average fifteen

0:22:19.840 --> 0:22:25.040
<v Speaker 2>and a half points is minus one fifteen. So I

0:22:25.160 --> 0:22:31.080
<v Speaker 2>will take Michael Porter Junior average because that's just an

0:22:31.119 --> 0:22:34.080
<v Speaker 2>over under. Because it's minus one fifteen on both. I

0:22:34.119 --> 0:22:39.800
<v Speaker 2>will take Michael Porter Junior to average under one fifteen

0:22:39.920 --> 0:22:45.240
<v Speaker 2>or fifteen and a half points per game in the series. Yo,

0:22:45.359 --> 0:22:49.800
<v Speaker 2>the yogis triple double. I'm just not gonna lay minus

0:22:49.920 --> 0:22:52.560
<v Speaker 2>money on something that only has been done once in

0:22:52.640 --> 0:22:56.399
<v Speaker 2>finals history, was done by Lebron. Jamal Murray having the

0:22:56.440 --> 0:23:00.919
<v Speaker 2>highest scoring game on its face looks good, particularly at

0:23:00.920 --> 0:23:04.359
<v Speaker 2>plus two hundred, But I think the Heat's game plan

0:23:04.520 --> 0:23:08.200
<v Speaker 2>is gonna be let Yokic score forty if he wants

0:23:08.680 --> 0:23:11.399
<v Speaker 2>and try to take away everything else. So I'll go

0:23:11.560 --> 0:23:15.800
<v Speaker 2>Michael Porter Junior averaging under fifteen and a half points

0:23:15.800 --> 0:23:19.239
<v Speaker 2>per game at minus one fifteen. And then there are

0:23:19.280 --> 0:23:24.840
<v Speaker 2>some championship specials yo Kics Finals MVP minus three sixty,

0:23:25.359 --> 0:23:29.040
<v Speaker 2>Butler Finals MVP plus three thirty, and the finals to

0:23:29.200 --> 0:23:34.800
<v Speaker 2>end in six at plus two forty. So I'm gonna

0:23:34.840 --> 0:23:40.600
<v Speaker 2>go Butler Finals MVP at plus three thirty. Let me

0:23:40.720 --> 0:23:47.119
<v Speaker 2>just see if we I my pick is heat in six.

0:23:48.480 --> 0:23:50.800
<v Speaker 2>So let me just see if I added in the

0:23:50.840 --> 0:23:54.000
<v Speaker 2>finals to end in six. So we would have plus

0:23:54.080 --> 0:23:56.680
<v Speaker 2>one fifty on Jimmy to have a ten plus assist game,

0:23:57.400 --> 0:24:00.600
<v Speaker 2>minus one fifteen on Michael Porter Junior fifty and a

0:24:00.600 --> 0:24:03.639
<v Speaker 2>half points per game. Butler Finals MVP in the finals

0:24:03.760 --> 0:24:07.840
<v Speaker 2>end in six. Put all that together, that's sixty seven

0:24:07.880 --> 0:24:11.840
<v Speaker 2>to one. So one thousand bucks you would win sixty

0:24:11.880 --> 0:24:15.520
<v Speaker 2>seven thousand. If we take out the finals to end

0:24:15.560 --> 0:24:22.679
<v Speaker 2>in six, it's nineteen to one. And that's actually the

0:24:22.720 --> 0:24:31.080
<v Speaker 2>one I'm gonna roll with. So Butler Finals MVP, Porter

0:24:31.200 --> 0:24:35.040
<v Speaker 2>Junior under fifteen and a half points per game, Jimmy

0:24:35.080 --> 0:24:38.600
<v Speaker 2>ten plus assists, roll it in one game or more,

0:24:38.960 --> 0:24:42.280
<v Speaker 2>roll it all together, it's nineteen to one. We're gonna

0:24:42.280 --> 0:24:45.040
<v Speaker 2>make that bet. I accept that offer that I just

0:24:45.080 --> 0:24:48.800
<v Speaker 2>gave myself. Matt's putting it into the rundown. Greatly appreciated

0:24:48.840 --> 0:24:50.400
<v Speaker 2>DIORA time now for our game.

0:24:50.680 --> 0:24:53.600
<v Speaker 3>Okay, So we're gonna start a new game today called

0:24:55.200 --> 0:24:59.399
<v Speaker 3>nick GPT. So there's a lot of confusing sports news

0:24:59.400 --> 0:25:01.600
<v Speaker 3>out there, and I can't wrap my head around all

0:25:01.640 --> 0:25:03.520
<v Speaker 3>of it. So I decided to enlist the help of

0:25:03.560 --> 0:25:07.840
<v Speaker 3>a new and maybe dangerous AI program called nick GPT.

0:25:08.040 --> 0:25:09.800
<v Speaker 2>Oh, it's a cool graphic they put up there. Okay,

0:25:09.840 --> 0:25:10.240
<v Speaker 2>go ahead.

0:25:10.280 --> 0:25:12.600
<v Speaker 3>We don't know how powerful it is yet, but let's

0:25:12.640 --> 0:25:15.399
<v Speaker 3>see if it can help us translate what some of

0:25:15.400 --> 0:25:19.280
<v Speaker 3>the people in sports in the sports world are saying. Okay,

0:25:19.359 --> 0:25:23.440
<v Speaker 3>general manager one general manager Bob Myers has left the Warriors,

0:25:23.480 --> 0:25:27.479
<v Speaker 3>saying this job requires complete engagement, complete effort, and if

0:25:27.520 --> 0:25:29.719
<v Speaker 3>I can't do it, and if you can't do it,

0:25:29.760 --> 0:25:33.159
<v Speaker 3>you shouldn't do it at all. Basically, And that's what

0:25:33.240 --> 0:25:36.040
<v Speaker 3>he said. But what did he mean, Nick GPT translate

0:25:36.080 --> 0:25:36.680
<v Speaker 3>this statement?

0:25:37.160 --> 0:25:42.560
<v Speaker 2>Man, have you seen the new collective bargaining agreement? My

0:25:42.640 --> 0:25:44.920
<v Speaker 2>owner said he doesn't want to pay four hundred million

0:25:44.960 --> 0:25:48.000
<v Speaker 2>in luxury tax. That's what we're gonna have to do.

0:25:48.560 --> 0:25:51.399
<v Speaker 2>The only way not to is to trade away Jordan Bull,

0:25:51.720 --> 0:25:54.480
<v Speaker 2>who I foolishly signed to one hundred and twenty eight

0:25:54.520 --> 0:25:57.320
<v Speaker 2>million bucks. But my hand was kind of forced because

0:25:57.440 --> 0:26:00.000
<v Speaker 2>he had just gotten his jaw cracked by Draymond Green.

0:26:00.520 --> 0:26:02.520
<v Speaker 2>Draymond's about to come to me and ask me for

0:26:02.600 --> 0:26:06.760
<v Speaker 2>more money. Clay won't you know, doesn't seem to want

0:26:06.800 --> 0:26:09.480
<v Speaker 2>to acknowledge you. The shell of his former self. He's

0:26:09.520 --> 0:26:12.520
<v Speaker 2>gonna want an extension. I ain't got time for all this.

0:26:12.920 --> 0:26:14.800
<v Speaker 2>I don't want to deal with it. I got my

0:26:14.920 --> 0:26:18.520
<v Speaker 2>four championships, my six finals appearances. I'm a legend in

0:26:18.560 --> 0:26:21.960
<v Speaker 2>the Bay. I love Steph, but I'm out of here.

0:26:22.760 --> 0:26:26.000
<v Speaker 2>That's what he That's what he actually meant. Next.

0:26:26.320 --> 0:26:29.080
<v Speaker 3>Okay, Bengals receiver Tyler Boyce.

0:26:28.840 --> 0:26:31.359
<v Speaker 2>You're skipping the Bills one. I think it was my bad.

0:26:31.480 --> 0:26:35.359
<v Speaker 3>That's right after offseason practice. After off season practices began,

0:26:35.840 --> 0:26:41.439
<v Speaker 3>Bill's coach Sean McDermott said, I've seen a different Josh

0:26:41.480 --> 0:26:45.159
<v Speaker 3>Allen this offseason. Not that it was bad before, but

0:26:45.280 --> 0:26:48.080
<v Speaker 3>he's got a new sense of focus and determination, which

0:26:48.119 --> 0:26:50.920
<v Speaker 3>is good. Nick Gpt translate this statement.

0:26:51.600 --> 0:26:55.119
<v Speaker 2>Man. So far this offseason, Josh isn't fumbling the ball

0:26:55.119 --> 0:27:00.880
<v Speaker 2>in the red zone, throwing head scratching picks, recognizing he's

0:27:00.920 --> 0:27:03.960
<v Speaker 2>a quarterback not a fullback, not trying to run people over,

0:27:04.920 --> 0:27:12.280
<v Speaker 2>and hopefully we get for the first time in the

0:27:12.359 --> 0:27:18.560
<v Speaker 2>last three years, a full season of Josh Allen playing

0:27:18.880 --> 0:27:24.359
<v Speaker 2>smart quarterback instead of trying to play superman quarterback. He's

0:27:24.400 --> 0:27:27.080
<v Speaker 2>got as much talent as everyone as anyone in the

0:27:27.119 --> 0:27:31.199
<v Speaker 2>league aside from Patrick Mahomes, and he has none of

0:27:31.240 --> 0:27:34.640
<v Speaker 2>the awards, none of the consistency, none of the success

0:27:35.320 --> 0:27:39.520
<v Speaker 2>because at times he thinks he's back at Wyoming trying

0:27:39.520 --> 0:27:42.040
<v Speaker 2>to throw the ball out of the stadium or trying

0:27:42.080 --> 0:27:45.560
<v Speaker 2>to just run everyone over. And that's not what we need.

0:27:46.200 --> 0:27:49.200
<v Speaker 2>We love Josh, but we need him to settle down

0:27:49.760 --> 0:27:52.120
<v Speaker 2>and be a little less of a roller coaster if

0:27:52.160 --> 0:27:56.000
<v Speaker 2>we're ever gonna get over the hump. That's what he

0:27:56.040 --> 0:28:01.000
<v Speaker 2>means next. Okay, so now to the band. Okay.

0:28:01.600 --> 0:28:04.480
<v Speaker 3>Mangles receiver Tyler Boyd said that he believes that he

0:28:04.600 --> 0:28:08.320
<v Speaker 3>wasn't If he wasn't hurt and played the whole game,

0:28:08.359 --> 0:28:10.920
<v Speaker 3>they would have beat your Chiefs in the AFC Championship.

0:28:11.520 --> 0:28:15.400
<v Speaker 3>He said he was the key factor. Nick gpt trump

0:28:15.560 --> 0:28:16.600
<v Speaker 3>translate this statement.

0:28:17.880 --> 0:28:24.560
<v Speaker 2>My AI technology is not sophisticated enough to translate either

0:28:24.800 --> 0:28:29.520
<v Speaker 2>just a bold faced lie or this level of delusion.

0:28:30.560 --> 0:28:34.919
<v Speaker 2>The idea that Tyler Boyd was the key to the

0:28:34.960 --> 0:28:41.240
<v Speaker 2>Bengals who have Jamar, Chase t Higgins, Joe Mixon, it's

0:28:41.520 --> 0:28:47.720
<v Speaker 2>just delusion, and I you know, I respect the confidence,

0:28:48.280 --> 0:28:52.720
<v Speaker 2>but there's nothing to translate here. It's just nonsense. And

0:28:52.760 --> 0:28:56.640
<v Speaker 2>the idea that if they had Tyler Boyd they would

0:28:56.640 --> 0:28:59.360
<v Speaker 2>have been able to stop Patrick Mahomes on the final

0:28:59.440 --> 0:29:04.600
<v Speaker 2>drive of the game is vexing considering the fact that

0:29:03.720 --> 0:29:07.000
<v Speaker 2>it's that he plays offense, not defense.

0:29:07.160 --> 0:29:10.640
<v Speaker 3>Next, we talked Tuesday about Aaron Rodgers at the Taylor

0:29:10.680 --> 0:29:13.479
<v Speaker 3>Shift concert. Now we have a video of him dancing

0:29:13.520 --> 0:29:16.160
<v Speaker 3>and the confetti screaming the Jets win the Super Bowl.

0:29:16.920 --> 0:29:19.320
<v Speaker 3>Nick's GPT translate this statement.

0:29:19.440 --> 0:29:23.200
<v Speaker 2>Ayahuasca is a hell of a drug. To misquote Rick James,

0:29:23.920 --> 0:29:29.280
<v Speaker 2>I mean, I get it. You're at MetLife, it's where

0:29:29.320 --> 0:29:32.360
<v Speaker 2>the Jets play. They're dropping confetti, you're having a good time.

0:29:32.920 --> 0:29:35.520
<v Speaker 2>You may or may not be on hallucinogens, but give

0:29:35.560 --> 0:29:41.040
<v Speaker 2>me a break and The more interesting Aaron Rodgers' story

0:29:41.160 --> 0:29:44.280
<v Speaker 2>is the interview or in the article in The Athletic

0:29:44.920 --> 0:29:49.800
<v Speaker 2>where he just doubles down on the I wasn't ducking

0:29:49.840 --> 0:29:52.920
<v Speaker 2>anyone's phone calls. I just have bad service in my house.

0:29:52.960 --> 0:29:58.160
<v Speaker 2>You have to FaceTime me nonsense, and it says he's listen, sorry,

0:29:58.240 --> 0:30:01.040
<v Speaker 2>not sorry about not talking to Brian go quote. I

0:30:01.120 --> 0:30:03.880
<v Speaker 2>talk to people I like into quote. That's to me

0:30:04.000 --> 0:30:06.720
<v Speaker 2>the more interesting Rogers story. But I'm kind of sick

0:30:06.760 --> 0:30:09.240
<v Speaker 2>of the Rogers stories at this point. And by the way,

0:30:09.440 --> 0:30:12.440
<v Speaker 2>he just missed his fourth rate practice with an injured calf,

0:30:12.680 --> 0:30:15.920
<v Speaker 2>which is at least at this point moderately concerning next.

0:30:16.320 --> 0:30:18.560
<v Speaker 3>Tom Brady was asked if he was coming back. He said,

0:30:18.640 --> 0:30:23.080
<v Speaker 3>I'm certain I'm not playing again. Nick Chpt translates this statement.

0:30:23.320 --> 0:30:28.680
<v Speaker 2>I believe that Tom Brady believes that right now. That's

0:30:28.680 --> 0:30:32.680
<v Speaker 2>what I believe. I believe that right now, Tom Brady believes.

0:30:32.600 --> 0:30:33.720
<v Speaker 3>You believe that he's wrong.

0:30:34.360 --> 0:30:37.800
<v Speaker 2>I'm not saying that, I'm saying that right now. I

0:30:37.880 --> 0:30:39.600
<v Speaker 2>believe that Tom Brady believes that.

0:30:40.120 --> 0:30:46.320
<v Speaker 3>All right, last one, okay, Speaking of washed Patriots quarterbacks,

0:30:46.360 --> 0:30:50.120
<v Speaker 3>Mac Jones, Mac Jones had this to say, about practice

0:30:50.120 --> 0:30:52.960
<v Speaker 3>with Bill O'Brien. It's been really good. It's been normal.

0:30:53.360 --> 0:30:57.880
<v Speaker 3>Nick cheap wow, GPT translate this statement.

0:30:58.200 --> 0:31:01.640
<v Speaker 2>I've got an offensive coordinator is offensive coordinator as opposed

0:31:01.680 --> 0:31:06.640
<v Speaker 2>to that wanna be rocket scientist, defensive coordinator and special

0:31:06.680 --> 0:31:11.360
<v Speaker 2>teams Coach Belichick saddled me with last year. It's nice

0:31:11.400 --> 0:31:14.920
<v Speaker 2>to actually have an offensive coordinator as my offensive coordinator.

0:31:15.200 --> 0:31:18.040
<v Speaker 2>That's what I mean by that. That's ten minutes on

0:31:18.080 --> 0:31:19.880
<v Speaker 2>the dot. I gotta tell you, do you or I

0:31:19.960 --> 0:31:22.560
<v Speaker 2>think the audience is probably wanting more today? That's what

0:31:22.600 --> 0:31:26.240
<v Speaker 2>they say, wanting more. We answer your questions next, What's right?

0:31:33.160 --> 0:31:36.000
<v Speaker 3>Welcome back, episode one fifty six. Now we're gonna answer

0:31:36.040 --> 0:31:41.400
<v Speaker 3>your listener questions. No, Rodrigue Rodriguez says, question for me,

0:31:42.480 --> 0:31:44.959
<v Speaker 3>since you've started doing the podcast, have you become a

0:31:44.960 --> 0:31:47.760
<v Speaker 3>fan of a player or a team that you weren't

0:31:47.880 --> 0:31:51.880
<v Speaker 3>very familiar with before? Honestly, not really.

0:31:52.000 --> 0:31:52.600
<v Speaker 2>I mean I was.

0:31:52.520 --> 0:31:57.280
<v Speaker 3>Always pretty familiar with basketball, and I always knew.

0:31:57.440 --> 0:32:00.840
<v Speaker 2>And Door hasn't been doing the show during football and

0:32:00.920 --> 0:32:01.960
<v Speaker 2>doesn't like football.

0:32:02.000 --> 0:32:05.320
<v Speaker 3>But maybe I don't mind watching football, but we don't

0:32:05.320 --> 0:32:07.280
<v Speaker 3>really go to football games as a family.

0:32:07.760 --> 0:32:10.320
<v Speaker 2>That's right. I don't like going to football games. I

0:32:10.360 --> 0:32:14.800
<v Speaker 2>love going to basketball game. Yes, but you did during

0:32:14.880 --> 0:32:18.920
<v Speaker 2>your you know probably you know I've mentioned this a

0:32:18.920 --> 0:32:20.600
<v Speaker 2>few times on the show, but you goes to a

0:32:20.680 --> 0:32:25.520
<v Speaker 2>very fancy boogie school with fancy boogie people, and prom weekend.

0:32:25.680 --> 0:32:28.000
<v Speaker 2>You know, there's the dance, but then of course the

0:32:28.040 --> 0:32:33.520
<v Speaker 2>post dance multi day event in the Hampton's. And you

0:32:33.720 --> 0:32:37.479
<v Speaker 2>told me that even while you were at your post

0:32:37.640 --> 0:32:41.360
<v Speaker 2>dance partying in the Hamptons, you checked in on the

0:32:41.480 --> 0:32:42.280
<v Speaker 2>NBA score.

0:32:42.400 --> 0:32:44.800
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, I did, But that has nothing to do with players,

0:32:44.840 --> 0:32:45.520
<v Speaker 3>that's just no.

0:32:45.640 --> 0:32:49.560
<v Speaker 2>But you are, You've I think you've started to like

0:32:49.720 --> 0:32:51.600
<v Speaker 2>the sport a little more. Is that fair?

0:32:52.040 --> 0:32:53.360
<v Speaker 3>I guess sure.

0:32:53.480 --> 0:32:55.840
<v Speaker 2>You're gonna watch the finals Game one with me tonight,

0:32:55.840 --> 0:32:58.280
<v Speaker 2>at least the first half. You go to bed quite

0:32:58.280 --> 0:32:59.800
<v Speaker 2>early when you're at home, but.

0:33:01.320 --> 0:33:02.640
<v Speaker 3>I go to my room, Acquiere.

0:33:02.920 --> 0:33:04.800
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, she yeah, that's right. She goes to her room.

0:33:04.840 --> 0:33:08.200
<v Speaker 2>It's probably on the phone or whatever for hours on end,

0:33:08.240 --> 0:33:10.280
<v Speaker 2>but she says, I'm going to bet. I'm like, it's

0:33:10.360 --> 0:33:11.280
<v Speaker 2>eight thirty.

0:33:11.160 --> 0:33:16.320
<v Speaker 3>But she's maybe all right, what's next? Okay, next question

0:33:16.480 --> 0:33:20.520
<v Speaker 3>joe Ess asked who got in the French? Who you

0:33:20.560 --> 0:33:24.040
<v Speaker 3>got in the French Open. Now that you're a boy Natal.

0:33:24.720 --> 0:33:30.560
<v Speaker 2>Doll allow, it's not in the draw. Oh my gosh.

0:33:30.200 --> 0:33:31.920
<v Speaker 3>I don't need this right now.

0:33:32.120 --> 0:33:36.200
<v Speaker 2>Did you call him Natal? I did, can't can't come on,

0:33:36.440 --> 0:33:41.160
<v Speaker 2>diora uh, I don't need this. Listen. I love uh,

0:33:42.040 --> 0:33:47.200
<v Speaker 2>I do love Nadal. But I'm the and I'll be

0:33:47.240 --> 0:33:51.520
<v Speaker 2>honest with you. I have not been locked into the

0:33:51.520 --> 0:33:56.880
<v Speaker 2>French Open yet. But the next guy that I'm gonna

0:33:56.920 --> 0:34:01.560
<v Speaker 2>love is the guy everyone's gonna love, Alcarez. And so

0:34:02.440 --> 0:34:05.880
<v Speaker 2>I'll go with Carlos the Spaniard, a different Spaniard after

0:34:05.920 --> 0:34:09.239
<v Speaker 2>being a Doll guy. I'll go with Carlos Acrez in

0:34:09.280 --> 0:34:13.880
<v Speaker 2>the French Hopefully he wins. There was an unbelievable shot

0:34:13.960 --> 0:34:17.600
<v Speaker 2>he made that a couple matches ago that his opponent

0:34:17.640 --> 0:34:21.760
<v Speaker 2>almost seemed demoralized by and then just clappedform all right, next, okay.

0:34:21.920 --> 0:34:25.080
<v Speaker 3>Supernova twenty two asked does Monty have a chance to

0:34:25.160 --> 0:34:29.560
<v Speaker 3>build and develop something in Detroit? He secured a huge payout,

0:34:29.719 --> 0:34:32.920
<v Speaker 3>but the Pistons haven't been a winning franchise in a

0:34:32.960 --> 0:34:33.640
<v Speaker 3>long time.

0:34:33.760 --> 0:34:36.680
<v Speaker 2>So I think MANI with the Pistons works really well.

0:34:36.719 --> 0:34:39.680
<v Speaker 2>I think it's smart. I think asking him to build

0:34:39.719 --> 0:34:43.080
<v Speaker 2>a culture and help teach a team learn how to

0:34:43.160 --> 0:34:48.399
<v Speaker 2>win like he did in Phoenix is the exact right

0:34:48.520 --> 0:34:50.919
<v Speaker 2>role for him, even if you have issues with him

0:34:51.360 --> 0:34:54.120
<v Speaker 2>getting a team over the hump to a championship and

0:34:54.200 --> 0:35:00.319
<v Speaker 2>in Detroit they're just trying to learn how to win. Listen,

0:35:00.320 --> 0:35:02.839
<v Speaker 2>they paid them a ton of money. I was I mean,

0:35:02.920 --> 0:35:06.000
<v Speaker 2>six years, seventy eight million dollars for that. I mean, god,

0:35:06.080 --> 0:35:11.439
<v Speaker 2>dog man, that's Pat McAfee money. But that is that's

0:35:12.080 --> 0:35:16.879
<v Speaker 2>a huge, huge contract. But I get it. They want

0:35:16.880 --> 0:35:19.480
<v Speaker 2>to add credibility to the organization. They have the fourth

0:35:19.520 --> 0:35:23.120
<v Speaker 2>pick in this year's draft or the fifth pick in

0:35:23.160 --> 0:35:25.920
<v Speaker 2>this year's draft, and then you add to it that

0:35:25.960 --> 0:35:28.640
<v Speaker 2>they have Kid Cunningham coming back. I get what they're

0:35:28.680 --> 0:35:30.200
<v Speaker 2>trying to do. I think that was a smart hire,

0:35:30.239 --> 0:35:30.560
<v Speaker 2>all right.

0:35:30.640 --> 0:35:35.560
<v Speaker 3>Last one, Aurora asks Nick, would the Sixers be chasing

0:35:36.520 --> 0:35:39.320
<v Speaker 3>their second ring by now if they kept Butler?

0:35:41.080 --> 0:35:50.560
<v Speaker 2>I mean, I don't know. So the year after the

0:35:50.680 --> 0:35:58.319
<v Speaker 2>Raptors won, the Lakers won, then the Bucks, then the Warriors,

0:35:58.520 --> 0:36:02.279
<v Speaker 2>and I don't know that the Sixers would have won

0:36:03.560 --> 0:36:09.280
<v Speaker 2>any of those titles. Maybe last year, but they certainly

0:36:09.320 --> 0:36:12.600
<v Speaker 2>would have made a conference Finals, and I believe would

0:36:12.640 --> 0:36:15.919
<v Speaker 2>have made at least a finals. Listen, it's an all

0:36:15.960 --> 0:36:22.000
<v Speaker 2>time front office gaff that sticking with now, everybody says

0:36:22.120 --> 0:36:25.480
<v Speaker 2>they picked Tobias Harris over Jimmy Butler, But Jimmy the

0:36:25.520 --> 0:36:28.200
<v Speaker 2>real problem was Jimmy didn't want to be there because

0:36:28.239 --> 0:36:33.399
<v Speaker 2>he sniffed out Ben Simmons earlier than everybody else, and

0:36:34.160 --> 0:36:36.680
<v Speaker 2>the Sixers didn't want to believe him on it. He

0:36:36.840 --> 0:36:39.759
<v Speaker 2>obviously was proven correct and vindicated, so they went with

0:36:39.840 --> 0:36:43.879
<v Speaker 2>Tobias Harris because they would have had to essentially move

0:36:43.960 --> 0:36:48.120
<v Speaker 2>on from Ben Simmons to keep Jimmy. Credit to Jimmy

0:36:48.680 --> 0:36:51.560
<v Speaker 2>for seeing that before anybody else saw it, way before

0:36:51.960 --> 0:36:54.840
<v Speaker 2>anybody else said it. And credit to us Diora. This

0:36:55.040 --> 0:36:59.319
<v Speaker 2>was a nice, tight, forty minute show. You didn't think

0:36:59.360 --> 0:37:02.080
<v Speaker 2>I could do it? How about that? There? It is?

0:37:02.440 --> 0:37:06.160
<v Speaker 2>What's Right? We will talk to you guys on Tuesday morning,

0:37:07.239 --> 0:37:11.239
<v Speaker 2>Game one of the finals tonight, game two on Sunday.

0:37:11.680 --> 0:37:14.319
<v Speaker 2>So on Tuesday we'll have a very good idea of

0:37:14.320 --> 0:37:16.480
<v Speaker 2>what direction these finals are headed in. I will see

0:37:16.520 --> 0:37:20.160
<v Speaker 2>you guys at three o'clock today on FS one. What's Right. Bye,
