Seventy six ers raptors, 19 00:01:07,840 --> 00:01:12,040 Speaker 1: Doc Rivers already a little sensitive and they haven't been 20 00:01:12,080 --> 00:01:14,840 Speaker 1: eliminated yet and blown a three O lead. We'll hear 21 00:01:14,880 --> 00:01:18,240 Speaker 1: from Doc Rivers coming up, Sons in New Orleans, trying 22 00:01:18,240 --> 00:01:22,160 Speaker 1: to close out the Pelicans. Mavericks and the Jazz Bucks 23 00:01:22,160 --> 00:01:25,600 Speaker 1: close out the Bulls, Warriors close out the Nuggets. The 24 00:01:25,800 --> 00:01:29,319 Speaker 1: draft tonight, the Jaguars are on the clock, and the 25 00:01:29,440 --> 00:01:32,920 Speaker 1: Cardinals quietly picked up the fifth year option on Kyler Murray. 26 00:01:33,400 --> 00:01:35,240 Speaker 1: That doesn't mean much to me. They were going to 27 00:01:35,319 --> 00:01:37,319 Speaker 1: do this. Felt like they're just kicking the can down 28 00:01:37,400 --> 00:01:39,800 Speaker 1: the road a little bit. I guess if he wanted 29 00:01:39,840 --> 00:01:42,400 Speaker 1: to hold out, he could, but it felt like, Hey, 30 00:01:42,480 --> 00:01:45,880 Speaker 1: let's buy ourselves some time here and we'll pick up 31 00:01:45,880 --> 00:01:48,800 Speaker 1: the fifth year option on Kyler Murray. What's the poll question? 32 00:01:48,800 --> 00:01:51,520 Speaker 1: We're looking at today's Seaton. We got a couple options 33 00:01:51,560 --> 00:01:54,080 Speaker 1: here for you. Dan, all right, this is actually a 34 00:01:54,120 --> 00:01:56,680 Speaker 1: holdover from yesterday that we never got to. I'd rather 35 00:01:56,720 --> 00:01:59,400 Speaker 1: attend the NFL Draft in Las Vegas, the greatest city. 36 00:01:59,560 --> 00:02:03,320 Speaker 1: The greatest are in Hunarth or this super Bowl in 37 00:02:03,360 --> 00:02:07,200 Speaker 1: a cold weather city. The NFL Draft in Las Vegas 38 00:02:07,360 --> 00:02:09,679 Speaker 1: or a super Bowl in a cold weather city. I 39 00:02:09,760 --> 00:02:12,160 Speaker 1: think I think I'd rather go to the Draft in 40 00:02:12,240 --> 00:02:16,600 Speaker 1: Las Vegas. But you know what I thought. Okay, let's 41 00:02:16,600 --> 00:02:21,040 Speaker 1: say Detroit for the Super Bowl, Indianapolis for the Super Bowl, 42 00:02:21,680 --> 00:02:25,839 Speaker 1: Minnesota super Bowl. Although those cities did a really good job. 43 00:02:25,960 --> 00:02:29,320 Speaker 1: They were great. Yes, you get to go to the game, 44 00:02:29,800 --> 00:02:32,880 Speaker 1: but Vegas is a whole weekend. So I get I 45 00:02:32,960 --> 00:02:36,760 Speaker 1: get Thursday, Friday, Saturday, if I'm still alive, and then 46 00:02:36,800 --> 00:02:39,280 Speaker 1: I get to leave. Can you survive a draft weekend? 47 00:02:39,360 --> 00:02:45,360 Speaker 1: And I don't know if that's possible, but um well, 48 00:02:45,400 --> 00:02:47,200 Speaker 1: I guess you know. I mean, there's nothing like going 49 00:02:47,240 --> 00:02:49,760 Speaker 1: to see the Super Bowl, I get that, But if 50 00:02:49,760 --> 00:02:53,359 Speaker 1: you're going for a different type of experience then going 51 00:02:53,400 --> 00:02:56,000 Speaker 1: to the draft, I think, Fritzie, what the hell do 52 00:02:56,040 --> 00:02:58,959 Speaker 1: you have on today? I'm wearing my John Elway jersey 53 00:02:58,960 --> 00:03:05,480 Speaker 1: and my Bronco country hat and Broncos sweatpants and those JEMs, 54 00:03:05,560 --> 00:03:08,079 Speaker 1: and you have sweatbands on and I have, yeah, I 55 00:03:08,120 --> 00:03:12,200 Speaker 1: have like navy blue sweatbands on, waters bands. Just getting 56 00:03:12,200 --> 00:03:14,200 Speaker 1: in the mood for NFL Direct even though Denver has 57 00:03:14,400 --> 00:03:16,800 Speaker 1: no pick. Denver doesn't have a first round pick, I know, 58 00:03:16,840 --> 00:03:18,400 Speaker 1: but I just I get excited. I see everybody gets 59 00:03:18,400 --> 00:03:21,000 Speaker 1: old dressed up in their favorite team colors and everything 60 00:03:21,040 --> 00:03:23,399 Speaker 1: and screaming yell, do me a favorite? Do not get 61 00:03:23,440 --> 00:03:26,720 Speaker 1: excited with those pants on. Okay, that would be a problem. Yes, 62 00:03:27,400 --> 00:03:33,160 Speaker 1: they're very thin, mature. Yes, what else do we have? Seaton? 63 00:03:33,240 --> 00:03:37,040 Speaker 1: I don't have anything anymore. That's got nothing left, I believe, Yeah, 64 00:03:37,040 --> 00:03:39,520 Speaker 1: okay we have here's some of paul who should be 65 00:03:39,520 --> 00:03:45,119 Speaker 1: traded tonight? Oh Baker, Debo, Jordan Love. Yeah, Paulie has 66 00:03:45,240 --> 00:03:47,960 Speaker 1: a He had a thought on this that if you're 67 00:03:48,240 --> 00:03:52,400 Speaker 1: let's say second round, third round, and you didn't get 68 00:03:52,440 --> 00:03:55,200 Speaker 1: the quarterback he wanted up higher, that maybe you reach 69 00:03:55,240 --> 00:03:58,200 Speaker 1: out to the Packers and saying, I don't know, third 70 00:03:58,280 --> 00:04:01,360 Speaker 1: round pick for Jordan Love, second round pick for Jordan Love, 71 00:04:02,280 --> 00:04:05,520 Speaker 1: would he be a better player to get than drafting 72 00:04:05,560 --> 00:04:10,480 Speaker 1: somebody like Matt Correll? Yeah? Yeah. So like the Seattle Seahawks, 73 00:04:10,480 --> 00:04:14,000 Speaker 1: because of that trade with Russ they have the fortieth 74 00:04:14,000 --> 00:04:16,400 Speaker 1: and forty first pick in the draft. That's pretty high 75 00:04:16,440 --> 00:04:18,320 Speaker 1: second round picks. Why do you take one of those? 76 00:04:18,880 --> 00:04:21,280 Speaker 1: Give a call to Green Bay. Get Jordan Love, who 77 00:04:21,360 --> 00:04:23,719 Speaker 1: was a first round pick at a value you don't 78 00:04:23,720 --> 00:04:25,240 Speaker 1: want to pay any of a signing bonus. You get 79 00:04:25,279 --> 00:04:27,599 Speaker 1: him basically for two years for not very much money. 80 00:04:27,880 --> 00:04:29,560 Speaker 1: And if you're Green Bay, are you just gonna hold 81 00:04:29,600 --> 00:04:32,000 Speaker 1: this guy? And let him walk away someday when Aaron 82 00:04:32,080 --> 00:04:35,479 Speaker 1: Rodgers plays two more years. Yeah, I understand the philosophy. 83 00:04:35,520 --> 00:04:38,640 Speaker 1: I'd be curious what kind of grades these teams still 84 00:04:38,680 --> 00:04:44,000 Speaker 1: have on Jordan Love. But if you're going to draft 85 00:04:44,000 --> 00:04:48,000 Speaker 1: a quarterback to sit behind a quarterback, you could trade 86 00:04:48,000 --> 00:04:51,200 Speaker 1: for Jordan Love, who's already sat two years behind Aaron Rodgers. 87 00:04:51,720 --> 00:04:53,640 Speaker 1: I get it. I don't know what he would cost you, 88 00:04:54,600 --> 00:04:56,200 Speaker 1: and I don't know if Green Bay goes no. We 89 00:04:56,279 --> 00:04:59,520 Speaker 1: got too much time invested in him that we want 90 00:04:59,520 --> 00:05:02,440 Speaker 1: to keep it. And he's cheap as a backup quarterback, 91 00:05:02,600 --> 00:05:05,599 Speaker 1: although you know it's first round money that you're giving him, 92 00:05:06,000 --> 00:05:10,880 Speaker 1: but you know it's going to be strange. His contract's 93 00:05:10,920 --> 00:05:13,279 Speaker 1: going to be up probably by the time Aaron Rodgers 94 00:05:13,400 --> 00:05:16,560 Speaker 1: decides to retire, and then what are you gonna do. 95 00:05:16,800 --> 00:05:19,599 Speaker 1: You're gonna sign him up to that next contract and 96 00:05:19,680 --> 00:05:22,680 Speaker 1: he hasn't even played for you, Baker. I don't think 97 00:05:22,880 --> 00:05:27,640 Speaker 1: is traded tonight. I'm guessing after and it might be 98 00:05:27,839 --> 00:05:31,760 Speaker 1: after Saturday that all of a sudden these teams go, okay, 99 00:05:31,800 --> 00:05:34,680 Speaker 1: where do we stand on that position? And then maybe 100 00:05:34,880 --> 00:05:38,120 Speaker 1: you know he's traded Debo. I don't I just can't 101 00:05:38,120 --> 00:05:40,640 Speaker 1: imagine they're going to trade him. I know he might 102 00:05:40,680 --> 00:05:44,080 Speaker 1: be unhappy, but I would I would try to figure 103 00:05:44,120 --> 00:05:46,640 Speaker 1: out how to make him happy. He probably is talking 104 00:05:46,680 --> 00:05:49,800 Speaker 1: about relocating, wants to be closer to home in South Carolina. 105 00:05:49,839 --> 00:05:52,440 Speaker 1: I understand that if that's the case, then i'd reach 106 00:05:52,480 --> 00:05:56,119 Speaker 1: out to the Falcons uh and say, hey, uh Deebo, 107 00:05:56,200 --> 00:05:59,240 Speaker 1: Samuel's going to be available, and what would you give us? 108 00:05:59,800 --> 00:06:03,520 Speaker 1: They have what the fourth overall pick? What are the Falcons? 109 00:06:03,640 --> 00:06:05,880 Speaker 1: They have a pretty high pick there, and I think 110 00:06:05,920 --> 00:06:08,240 Speaker 1: they're looking at a wide receiver as well. I was 111 00:06:08,320 --> 00:06:13,000 Speaker 1: also told this last night, if anybody jumps up that 112 00:06:13,120 --> 00:06:17,240 Speaker 1: they're going after wide receivers, that you'll probably not have anybody. 113 00:06:17,560 --> 00:06:20,039 Speaker 1: Very few teams would be trading up unless they're going 114 00:06:20,120 --> 00:06:21,960 Speaker 1: to trade up to get a wide receiver. There's going 115 00:06:22,000 --> 00:06:24,480 Speaker 1: to be a run on wide receivers, and it might 116 00:06:24,520 --> 00:06:29,320 Speaker 1: be one right after another, seven, eight, nine, ten, eleven. 117 00:06:29,760 --> 00:06:32,359 Speaker 1: That might be your sweet spot for these wide receivers. 118 00:06:32,480 --> 00:06:35,080 Speaker 1: Just something to keep an eye on. But you know, 119 00:06:35,120 --> 00:06:39,200 Speaker 1: there's no general consensus this year of the top prospects. 120 00:06:40,720 --> 00:06:44,360 Speaker 1: There's no Miles Garrett, there's no Trevor Lawrence. There there's 121 00:06:44,400 --> 00:06:47,200 Speaker 1: a lot of uncertainty, and plus you know the most 122 00:06:47,200 --> 00:06:50,120 Speaker 1: coveted positions. You see, the quarterback, we know who's the 123 00:06:50,160 --> 00:06:52,920 Speaker 1: best quarterback. The wide receiver, we know who the best 124 00:06:52,920 --> 00:06:59,440 Speaker 1: wide receiver. Corner edge rusher. Sauce Gardner is great, and 125 00:06:59,480 --> 00:07:01,040 Speaker 1: I thought he was going to be a top ten, 126 00:07:01,120 --> 00:07:04,760 Speaker 1: maybe a top five pick. Now Derek Stingley coming out 127 00:07:04,760 --> 00:07:11,920 Speaker 1: of nowhere. There are whispers right now Detroit not going 128 00:07:11,960 --> 00:07:14,480 Speaker 1: to take him. Houston could take him at number three. 129 00:07:15,360 --> 00:07:19,200 Speaker 1: So that this is what happens. You know, now you 130 00:07:19,240 --> 00:07:21,360 Speaker 1: start to get the smoke clears a little bit. Now 131 00:07:21,400 --> 00:07:26,720 Speaker 1: you start to hear what teams Cavon Thibodeaux. Detroit may 132 00:07:26,760 --> 00:07:30,200 Speaker 1: take him at number two. Overall, they haven't even talked 133 00:07:30,240 --> 00:07:34,480 Speaker 1: about him, and now they may take him. The defensive 134 00:07:34,480 --> 00:07:36,600 Speaker 1: lineman out of Oregon. By the way, I saw an 135 00:07:36,600 --> 00:07:39,960 Speaker 1: interview with him yesterday on the Mothership. He's got personality 136 00:07:40,160 --> 00:07:44,320 Speaker 1: and then some he was entertaining. And that doesn't mean 137 00:07:44,320 --> 00:07:47,560 Speaker 1: he gonna be a great player. Johnny Manziel had a 138 00:07:47,600 --> 00:07:53,160 Speaker 1: decent personality too. But Cavon Thibodeaux looks like sounds like 139 00:07:53,720 --> 00:07:56,120 Speaker 1: he's ready for this. But is he going to go 140 00:07:56,320 --> 00:07:59,600 Speaker 1: to Detroit second overall. And also you'll get a coach 141 00:07:59,640 --> 00:08:01,960 Speaker 1: you one something at GM who wons something. And then 142 00:08:02,000 --> 00:08:05,560 Speaker 1: in some cases like the Browns or the Cowboys, the 143 00:08:05,640 --> 00:08:08,520 Speaker 1: owner wants something and that's when they screw things up. 144 00:08:09,120 --> 00:08:12,800 Speaker 1: But trying to accurately predict a mock draft good luck, 145 00:08:13,080 --> 00:08:17,120 Speaker 1: because there is uncertainty. There's there's not marquee names, but 146 00:08:17,240 --> 00:08:20,400 Speaker 1: there is that sort of wonderment. I mean, this is 147 00:08:20,480 --> 00:08:24,200 Speaker 1: spring training for football fans, like, we got a chance. 148 00:08:24,640 --> 00:08:27,760 Speaker 1: You know, the sun is out, we got a chance. 149 00:08:27,840 --> 00:08:31,760 Speaker 1: The bad teams are relevant. You know, Detroit's on the clock, 150 00:08:31,880 --> 00:08:34,560 Speaker 1: Jacksonville is on the clock, Texans on the clock. Hey 151 00:08:35,000 --> 00:08:38,920 Speaker 1: all right, you know, not realizing that there's a reason 152 00:08:39,000 --> 00:08:41,319 Speaker 1: why you're up there at the top every year, you're 153 00:08:41,320 --> 00:08:44,240 Speaker 1: not very good, Yes, Mart. My favorite part about the 154 00:08:44,280 --> 00:08:47,640 Speaker 1: draft is when the team announces who they drafted and 155 00:08:47,679 --> 00:08:49,719 Speaker 1: they don't know who it is, but they've heard good 156 00:08:49,720 --> 00:08:52,760 Speaker 1: things and they're like, oh, oh, okay, all right, all right, 157 00:08:52,760 --> 00:08:56,440 Speaker 1: they're high five meats, all right, okay, yeah, yes, I 158 00:08:56,480 --> 00:08:59,200 Speaker 1: was watching back to that draft thirty for thirty, the 159 00:08:59,240 --> 00:09:03,800 Speaker 1: eighty through draft from Alway to Marino. Yeah, and Pete 160 00:09:03,880 --> 00:09:06,600 Speaker 1: Roselle was the commissioner at the time. He had an 161 00:09:06,679 --> 00:09:09,960 Speaker 1: unbelievable ability to deliver the draft pick in a way 162 00:09:10,000 --> 00:09:12,360 Speaker 1: that built tension. Was like Ryan Seacrest, he goes with 163 00:09:12,480 --> 00:09:18,199 Speaker 1: a thirteenth pick, the new Engham Pagers take quarterback out 164 00:09:18,240 --> 00:09:21,160 Speaker 1: of Illinois. He did a purposeful pause, and I really 165 00:09:21,200 --> 00:09:23,160 Speaker 1: think he was like a showman. And I don't know 166 00:09:23,200 --> 00:09:25,680 Speaker 1: if our commissioner does that now, but like it's really 167 00:09:25,720 --> 00:09:27,600 Speaker 1: interesting when it's that just that hair of the pause 168 00:09:27,640 --> 00:09:30,240 Speaker 1: where you're like, what's gonna happen next. That was the 169 00:09:30,320 --> 00:09:33,200 Speaker 1: first draft I covered as in New York, right, yes, 170 00:09:33,760 --> 00:09:36,160 Speaker 1: but it didn't have anywhere near the That was the 171 00:09:36,240 --> 00:09:41,640 Speaker 1: Marriott Marquee. There was no fanfare. I just remember that 172 00:09:42,000 --> 00:09:43,840 Speaker 1: you go to it and then they announced the name. 173 00:09:44,240 --> 00:09:46,319 Speaker 1: I don't even know how many players were there at 174 00:09:46,320 --> 00:09:49,679 Speaker 1: the time. It was just completely different. And that's, you know, 175 00:09:49,880 --> 00:09:53,800 Speaker 1: the greatest quarterback draft of all time. Stat of the 176 00:09:53,840 --> 00:09:56,720 Speaker 1: Day brought to you by Panini America, the official Trading cards, 177 00:09:56,720 --> 00:09:59,679 Speaker 1: So the Dan Patrick Show and this program brought to 178 00:09:59,720 --> 00:10:03,360 Speaker 1: you I Discover used Discover to earn five percent cash 179 00:10:03,400 --> 00:10:07,240 Speaker 1: back at gas stations and target now through June and 180 00:10:07,559 --> 00:10:10,560 Speaker 1: up to fifteen hundred dollars in purchases when you activate, 181 00:10:10,679 --> 00:10:14,680 Speaker 1: learn more, discover dot com, slash rewards, limitations supply.

I'm 184 00:10:18,760 --> 00:10:22,319 Speaker 1: gonna give you a draft profile and you can have 185 00:10:22,360 --> 00:10:24,720 Speaker 1: to name the player. It's not a player like in 186 00:10:24,920 --> 00:10:27,280 Speaker 1: round eight or whatever. I mean, you know I'm joking, 187 00:10:27,320 --> 00:10:31,920 Speaker 1: but like, it's not obscure. Player blank is a notch 188 00:10:32,000 --> 00:10:34,800 Speaker 1: below elite in terms of physical traits, but his preparation, 189 00:10:34,880 --> 00:10:38,959 Speaker 1: attention to detail, relentless motor make him special. Aiden Hutchinson, 190 00:10:39,000 --> 00:10:42,360 Speaker 1: Aiden hudgens in Michigan. As you're a relentless motor guy 191 00:10:42,440 --> 00:10:45,760 Speaker 1: right there, relentless motors, you gotta be a white guy. Well, 192 00:10:45,800 --> 00:10:49,040 Speaker 1: his motor is not high. It's relentless, so we don't 193 00:10:49,040 --> 00:10:50,480 Speaker 1: know where if it's high or low, but it is 194 00:10:50,520 --> 00:10:52,320 Speaker 1: it never stopped, which is also known as the JJ 195 00:10:52,440 --> 00:10:55,440 Speaker 1: watt motor. Relentless. Okay, here's a bonus question. You know, 196 00:10:55,559 --> 00:10:58,760 Speaker 1: some car companies should come out with a motor like 197 00:10:58,880 --> 00:11:02,120 Speaker 1: let's say Aiden Hutchinson goes to Detroit. You should have Hart. 198 00:11:02,320 --> 00:11:03,840 Speaker 1: You should be able to get you should be able 199 00:11:03,840 --> 00:11:05,800 Speaker 1: to get. Could I get the Hutchinson in there, like 200 00:11:05,920 --> 00:11:07,800 Speaker 1: the him motor in there? Yeah, we can do that. 201 00:11:08,240 --> 00:11:13,600 Speaker 1: Shay Trail with the high motor. Yeah, Zach got the hemming. Yeah, 202 00:11:13,880 --> 00:11:16,760 Speaker 1: I'd like to have that in there. Yes, more. Is 203 00:11:16,800 --> 00:11:21,040 Speaker 1: he a good ass dude? All of course, some good 204 00:11:21,040 --> 00:11:24,600 Speaker 1: ass dudes, yes, but here Yeah, Cavon Thibadeau looks like 205 00:11:24,640 --> 00:11:28,000 Speaker 1: he's got a pretty high motor. Just saying, but usually 206 00:11:28,000 --> 00:11:32,319 Speaker 1: you don't get that compliment. Yes, yes, bonus question. Okay. 207 00:11:31,880 --> 00:11:37,319 Speaker 1: The player comp for Aiden Hutchinson out of Michigan, it's 208 00:11:37,360 --> 00:11:40,320 Speaker 1: not too far down in the depth chart. He retired 209 00:11:40,360 --> 00:11:43,920 Speaker 1: maybe four or five years ago, but is a you know, 210 00:11:44,400 --> 00:11:47,439 Speaker 1: it was some defensive end. The player comp for Aiden 211 00:11:47,480 --> 00:11:53,960 Speaker 1: Hutchinson Marvin Jared Allen. Jared Allen's extremely white guy. I 212 00:11:53,960 --> 00:11:56,599 Speaker 1: like that Marvel who had a high motor. It was 213 00:11:56,679 --> 00:12:02,120 Speaker 1: gonna be Davion Clowney, No, would be no anybody, Mary 214 00:12:02,120 --> 00:12:04,920 Speaker 1: Williams or any other black. I do still love when 215 00:12:05,080 --> 00:12:07,120 Speaker 1: they make the announcements. You get these guys who go 216 00:12:07,160 --> 00:12:10,240 Speaker 1: to the draft and they're so excited, you know, they're 217 00:12:10,240 --> 00:12:13,439 Speaker 1: just excited to be on TV. And I remember always 218 00:12:13,480 --> 00:12:16,240 Speaker 1: seeing the Eagles and the Jets fans and they'd be there, 219 00:12:16,600 --> 00:12:19,199 Speaker 1: you know, when Donovan McNabb was taken and they were 220 00:12:19,240 --> 00:12:23,199 Speaker 1: like what, no, you know, we we wanted Ricky Williams 221 00:12:23,720 --> 00:12:25,960 Speaker 1: and it turned out they got the right pick. But 222 00:12:26,040 --> 00:12:30,120 Speaker 1: when you draft an offensive lineman from Iowa and then 223 00:12:30,200 --> 00:12:34,040 Speaker 1: you you make it sound like yes, that's the final piece, yes, 224 00:12:34,760 --> 00:12:37,000 Speaker 1: and you're going you have no idea? Who the center 225 00:12:37,080 --> 00:12:43,920 Speaker 1: Alex Mack of California, Yes, snap man, Yeah, here we go, 226 00:12:45,000 --> 00:12:49,680 Speaker 1: Here we go. The center quarterback has change. Is gonna 227 00:12:49,679 --> 00:12:57,320 Speaker 1: be awesome? This yeah, I love it. No, no, no, no, yeah, 228 00:12:57,360 --> 00:13:00,040 Speaker 1: but watch those guys tonight. They're gonna be there. I 229 00:13:00,080 --> 00:13:02,280 Speaker 1: mean like, yeah, you know, the camera will be on them. 230 00:13:02,440 --> 00:13:11,760 Speaker 1: Number one guy's dressed like Fritzie there. Yeah, there's a 231 00:13:11,840 --> 00:13:13,800 Speaker 1: draft maybe two or three years ago. We're in the 232 00:13:13,920 --> 00:13:18,520 Speaker 1: third round. Now, next draft pick punter, and the whole 233 00:13:18,559 --> 00:13:20,600 Speaker 1: place goes Berserk. I think his name is like Brian 234 00:13:20,679 --> 00:13:25,480 Speaker 1: Anger or something Anger or or something. But when you 235 00:13:25,520 --> 00:13:28,720 Speaker 1: heard punch of the whole place from Berserk, yeah, oh god, 236 00:13:29,720 --> 00:13:31,920 Speaker 1: it is fun. Yeah, Like if you can you can 237 00:13:31,960 --> 00:13:35,000 Speaker 1: attend one draft, like you should just do it. If 238 00:13:35,040 --> 00:13:37,960 Speaker 1: you get the opportunity do it. Just see you know, 239 00:13:38,000 --> 00:13:40,199 Speaker 1: you see a lot of old you know, it's throwback, 240 00:13:40,520 --> 00:13:43,760 Speaker 1: a lot of old jerseys in there, some seasoned vets 241 00:13:43,800 --> 00:13:49,840 Speaker 1: in there. Fans, Oh, it's good stuff. How many Tray 242 00:13:49,920 --> 00:13:53,040 Speaker 1: Pinston jerseys can you find in the Philadelphia Draft? Let's 243 00:13:53,040 --> 00:13:58,760 Speaker 1: go Tray Pinston. He's a wide receiver for the Eagles, right? Nickname? 244 00:13:58,840 --> 00:14:01,160 Speaker 1: Was that his nickname? No? No, he had that one 245 00:14:01,320 --> 00:14:04,160 Speaker 1: is Pinkston though, Yeah, the skinny guy. Yes, it was 246 00:14:04,160 --> 00:14:08,960 Speaker 1: like number eighteen, number sixteen, something like that. What's Pingston's 247 00:14:09,000 --> 00:14:13,520 Speaker 1: first name? That's what I meant. It was Todd Paston 248 00:14:13,600 --> 00:14:20,160 Speaker 1: the third maybe Trey. Yeah, we got let's go, Yeah, okay, 249 00:14:21,800 --> 00:14:24,680 Speaker 1: let's go.

With the scariest crowd though, is when we 252 00:14:29,920 --> 00:14:31,720 Speaker 1: were working at ESPN, we had to do every day 253 00:14:31,720 --> 00:14:34,760 Speaker 1: of the draft with radio, the people who were in 254 00:14:34,800 --> 00:14:37,240 Speaker 1: the stands for the sixth and seventh round. It's like 255 00:14:37,280 --> 00:14:41,240 Speaker 1: this sparse mishmash of guys and and and it's really weird, 256 00:14:41,680 --> 00:14:44,120 Speaker 1: really weird, and and some of those people look like 257 00:14:44,160 --> 00:14:46,400 Speaker 1: they just slept there like they right. You know, it's 258 00:14:46,440 --> 00:14:51,120 Speaker 1: like hey, hey drafts, round round two is over.

You're 264 00:15:06,160 --> 00:15:09,280 Speaker 1: still in it. You're all right, getting the free drink. Still, 265 00:15:09,840 --> 00:15:12,800 Speaker 1: let's take a break here.

Here's something that's not going 297 00:17:09,400 --> 00:17:12,320 Speaker 1: to be talked about today, might be talked about a 298 00:17:12,400 --> 00:17:15,520 Speaker 1: little bit later on, maybe next week. Chris Middleton will 299 00:17:15,560 --> 00:17:20,119 Speaker 1: likely miss Milwaukee's second round series against Boston. He's probably 300 00:17:20,160 --> 00:17:25,160 Speaker 1: the least known second option of a good playoff team 301 00:17:27,240 --> 00:17:29,640 Speaker 1: they won the championship. He's still not that well known. 302 00:17:29,680 --> 00:17:32,840 Speaker 1: But that's something that people probably won't talk about, but 303 00:17:33,160 --> 00:17:37,160 Speaker 1: they will eventually because it could impact that series greatly 304 00:17:37,200 --> 00:17:39,800 Speaker 1: with the Boston Celtics. By the way, Paully came up 305 00:17:39,800 --> 00:17:42,879 Speaker 1: with an idea, actually came up with it yesterday and 306 00:17:43,119 --> 00:17:45,240 Speaker 1: I said, you got to bet this out a little bit, 307 00:17:45,680 --> 00:17:47,960 Speaker 1: and he said, all right, we're working on the Slam 308 00:17:48,040 --> 00:17:50,560 Speaker 1: Dunk Contest, which I said, I don't care about slam 309 00:17:50,640 --> 00:17:53,880 Speaker 1: dunk content. Well, this is based off John Moran, and 310 00:17:54,080 --> 00:17:58,199 Speaker 1: Paully goes, Now, imagine this if John Morant had a 311 00:17:58,320 --> 00:18:01,560 Speaker 1: dunk and we got to judge the best vote on 312 00:18:01,640 --> 00:18:05,600 Speaker 1: the best dunk the entire year, and that's how you 313 00:18:05,880 --> 00:18:08,960 Speaker 1: that's how you crown the Slam Dunk Contest winner. So 314 00:18:09,119 --> 00:18:11,639 Speaker 1: John Morant is going to get a million dollars for 315 00:18:11,800 --> 00:18:14,720 Speaker 1: that dunk unless somebody has a better dunk. You let 316 00:18:14,760 --> 00:18:18,679 Speaker 1: everybody vote on it, fan involvement a million dollars, and 317 00:18:18,720 --> 00:18:22,800 Speaker 1: then we get Dunkin Donuts to sponsor it, and you 318 00:18:22,840 --> 00:18:25,920 Speaker 1: could even have the d U n K and then 319 00:18:26,240 --> 00:18:29,119 Speaker 1: the eye could be somebody jumping it, writes itself, Dan, 320 00:18:29,200 --> 00:18:31,359 Speaker 1: I've already got it, yeah, Paul, And it could be 321 00:18:31,400 --> 00:18:34,440 Speaker 1: called the Vince Cook Carter Memorial Dunk in Game Dunk 322 00:18:34,440 --> 00:18:36,919 Speaker 1: Award or something maybe not so wordy, and a picture 323 00:18:36,920 --> 00:18:40,959 Speaker 1: of Vince Carter dunking or Frederick Weiss as the trophy. Okay, 324 00:18:41,040 --> 00:18:44,720 Speaker 1: let's bring in Adam Leftco. It covers the NBA TNT 325 00:18:44,920 --> 00:18:48,560 Speaker 1: Inside the NBA guest host, also covering the draft as 326 00:18:48,600 --> 00:18:51,280 Speaker 1: well for Bleacher Report. Left go, let me start with that. 327 00:18:51,960 --> 00:18:57,320 Speaker 1: Let me start with the season long Dunk of the 328 00:18:57,440 --> 00:19:00,919 Speaker 1: Year Award, and then I don't like it? All right, 329 00:19:01,160 --> 00:19:03,840 Speaker 1: we'll talk to you later. Thanks for joining. Wait, wait, 330 00:19:03,960 --> 00:19:07,160 Speaker 1: why don't you like the dunk contest is actually a 331 00:19:07,320 --> 00:19:13,480 Speaker 1: dunk in a contest called a game? Because why are 332 00:19:13,560 --> 00:19:15,919 Speaker 1: we trying to kill this thing so fast? Like we 333 00:19:16,040 --> 00:19:19,080 Speaker 1: had one bad year where Cale Anthony took like twenty 334 00:19:19,080 --> 00:19:22,320 Speaker 1: minutes to tie his shoes and suddenly it needs to 335 00:19:22,320 --> 00:19:25,600 Speaker 1: be completely imploded and fixed, yes, I will say. I 336 00:19:25,640 --> 00:19:28,600 Speaker 1: asked the commissioner, why don't we just give them like 337 00:19:28,640 --> 00:19:30,959 Speaker 1: a million dollars and he was like, that's not going 338 00:19:31,000 --> 00:19:32,800 Speaker 1: to get it done. And I was like, he's like, 339 00:19:33,080 --> 00:19:37,399 Speaker 1: people are worried now about embarrassment, and it does stink 340 00:19:37,440 --> 00:19:39,639 Speaker 1: that we got guys like Anthony Edwards that are like, 341 00:19:39,720 --> 00:19:43,320 Speaker 1: I'm never going to do the dunk contest, but there 342 00:19:43,400 --> 00:19:46,480 Speaker 1: has to be a way to incentivize, either through fear 343 00:19:46,840 --> 00:19:50,320 Speaker 1: or intimidation. Yeah, but John Rand's not going to do this. Left. God, 344 00:19:50,440 --> 00:19:53,280 Speaker 1: now I get jam Or Ran in the dunk contest 345 00:19:53,840 --> 00:19:55,920 Speaker 1: even though he's not going to be in a contest. 346 00:19:56,000 --> 00:19:59,680 Speaker 1: He just dunked in the game. Man, this is an 347 00:19:59,800 --> 00:20:02,639 Speaker 1: entire higher year. Oh my god, did you see that? 348 00:20:02,720 --> 00:20:05,359 Speaker 1: It's that the dunk of the year. Yeah, but we 349 00:20:05,400 --> 00:20:08,320 Speaker 1: still we already asked that question. Damn, Like that happened 350 00:20:08,400 --> 00:20:10,640 Speaker 1: last night. They were like dunk of the year, Like 351 00:20:11,160 --> 00:20:14,280 Speaker 1: PAULI said that, and I started thinking about Anthony Edwards 352 00:20:14,359 --> 00:20:16,960 Speaker 1: dunk over that dude on the Raptors and I was like, Oh, 353 00:20:17,040 --> 00:20:20,680 Speaker 1: it's pretty competitive. House of Highlights, does this It's the 354 00:20:20,760 --> 00:20:23,159 Speaker 1: moment of the year, dunk of the year. All that stuff. 355 00:20:23,240 --> 00:20:25,240 Speaker 1: I'm sorry that I came in rating on your parade. 356 00:20:25,280 --> 00:20:28,160 Speaker 1: I bet you guys were having a great morning. We were, Yeah, 357 00:20:28,280 --> 00:20:30,359 Speaker 1: I kind of messed out of it. Yeah, but I 358 00:20:30,400 --> 00:20:33,480 Speaker 1: still don't like the idea. Okay, I love the idea. 359 00:20:33,600 --> 00:20:35,560 Speaker 1: I do you like bad ideas. That's why you were 360 00:20:35,560 --> 00:20:37,919 Speaker 1: gonna have me on as. I guess that it's true. 361 00:20:38,720 --> 00:20:42,119 Speaker 1: Chris Middleton not playing a big deal left go. I 362 00:20:42,160 --> 00:20:44,680 Speaker 1: think the Celtics are going to the to the finals. Okay. 363 00:20:46,080 --> 00:20:51,479 Speaker 1: I got to sit right behind where the media sits 364 00:20:51,680 --> 00:20:54,920 Speaker 1: for Game four, and I'm watching Celtics nets, and I'm 365 00:20:54,960 --> 00:20:57,840 Speaker 1: looking at the size of the Celtics and I'm watching 366 00:20:57,880 --> 00:21:02,240 Speaker 1: Ema Udoka and I'm watching this dude have nonverbal communication 367 00:21:02,320 --> 00:21:05,920 Speaker 1: with Marcus Smart from across the court. They're doing this, 368 00:21:06,200 --> 00:21:08,400 Speaker 1: and Smart it's like, oh yeah. And then I'm looking 369 00:21:08,440 --> 00:21:11,159 Speaker 1: at Steve Nash and he's looking at his assistance and 370 00:21:11,240 --> 00:21:14,360 Speaker 1: it was a complete divide. So he's doing hand signals 371 00:21:14,400 --> 00:21:18,520 Speaker 1: to Marcus Smart, where Steve Nash was not really communicating Dan. 372 00:21:18,600 --> 00:21:21,240 Speaker 1: There was one part in the fourth quarter where Goran 373 00:21:21,320 --> 00:21:23,760 Speaker 1: Draggits looked back at the bench and yelled something at 374 00:21:23,760 --> 00:21:25,720 Speaker 1: Steve like I need to know what we're doing here, 375 00:21:26,160 --> 00:21:28,560 Speaker 1: And Steve Nash looked at him blankly, and I love 376 00:21:28,640 --> 00:21:31,280 Speaker 1: Steve Nash and then looked at his assistance and then 377 00:21:31,320 --> 00:21:33,359 Speaker 1: turned around and kind of put his hands up, and 378 00:21:33,440 --> 00:21:36,040 Speaker 1: Goran Drags kind of threw his hands like I'll figure 379 00:21:36,040 --> 00:21:39,159 Speaker 1: it out myself. And then I'm watching the Celtics bench 380 00:21:39,720 --> 00:21:43,080 Speaker 1: Dan every free throw, Emy Yujoka has Derek White and 381 00:21:43,119 --> 00:21:46,919 Speaker 1: Marcus Smarty. He it looked like he had the chess 382 00:21:47,000 --> 00:21:50,080 Speaker 1: move for every single play. But I'm looking at the 383 00:21:50,080 --> 00:21:52,480 Speaker 1: Bucks team and I'm going, so, you don't have Chris Middleton, 384 00:21:52,760 --> 00:21:55,200 Speaker 1: and you don't have PJ. Tucker like you did last year. 385 00:21:55,560 --> 00:22:00,000 Speaker 1: Who's guarding Tatum? Like, yeah, Drew Holliday? Okay, then who's 386 00:22:00,080 --> 00:22:03,960 Speaker 1: guarding Smart? They're missing two of those huge middle pieces. 387 00:22:04,000 --> 00:22:07,399 Speaker 1: Now that that's all the Celtics are are six seven 388 00:22:07,480 --> 00:22:10,040 Speaker 1: versatile guys and the Bucks now don't have enough of them. 389 00:22:10,400 --> 00:22:13,239 Speaker 1: But I thought Kyrie and Katie are the coaches, So 390 00:22:13,320 --> 00:22:16,560 Speaker 1: why wasn't Gorn Drogge looking to Kyrie and saying, Kay, 391 00:22:16,840 --> 00:22:20,080 Speaker 1: what are we doing down this stretch here? It felt 392 00:22:20,119 --> 00:22:22,760 Speaker 1: like Kyrie and Kad were like, We're going to figure 393 00:22:22,760 --> 00:22:24,520 Speaker 1: this out on our own. That's why it was so 394 00:22:24,560 --> 00:22:27,960 Speaker 1: impressive to watch Katie in person on Monday night, because 395 00:22:28,119 --> 00:22:30,199 Speaker 1: it was just him going, I'm going to find a 396 00:22:30,240 --> 00:22:34,560 Speaker 1: way to get to the basket. But yeah, no it Look, 397 00:22:34,600 --> 00:22:37,360 Speaker 1: Ema Judoka was the lead assistant for the Nets last year. 398 00:22:37,520 --> 00:22:39,719 Speaker 1: Maybe he knew all the things that they were planning 399 00:22:39,760 --> 00:22:44,400 Speaker 1: to do. Anyway, but the Celtics beat the heck out 400 00:22:44,400 --> 00:22:47,080 Speaker 1: of the Nets every time they played this year, and 401 00:22:47,280 --> 00:22:50,199 Speaker 1: Ema Judoka, I really think Dan is going to be 402 00:22:50,280 --> 00:22:52,000 Speaker 1: up for Coach of the Year for the next decade. 403 00:22:52,480 --> 00:22:55,560 Speaker 1: And it's a few reasons. One the way that I 404 00:22:55,560 --> 00:22:58,640 Speaker 1: see him patrol the sideline too. His connection with players 405 00:22:58,960 --> 00:23:02,200 Speaker 1: is unlike any coach that I've seen. And three, he's 406 00:23:02,240 --> 00:23:04,600 Speaker 1: from the state of a Quabum in Nigeria, which is 407 00:23:04,600 --> 00:23:07,680 Speaker 1: where my wife is from. And they don't lose. I mean, 408 00:23:07,920 --> 00:23:10,400 Speaker 1: he gets to coach the Celtics. She ends up with me. 409 00:23:10,880 --> 00:23:14,960 Speaker 1: Both big winners. You feel like a play in game 410 00:23:15,000 --> 00:23:19,000 Speaker 1: though for your wife. There are times where I look 411 00:23:19,040 --> 00:23:21,800 Speaker 1: over and I go, I am the Charlotte Hornets and 412 00:23:21,880 --> 00:23:25,960 Speaker 1: this is gonna end. Yeah, early exit, But boy are 413 00:23:25,960 --> 00:23:31,520 Speaker 1: they exciting potential. You got a lot of potential. Yea, yeah, yeah, 414 00:23:31,560 --> 00:23:33,200 Speaker 1: I just I just need to act on it. We'll 415 00:23:33,200 --> 00:23:37,520 Speaker 1: be fine. Help me understand what Doc Rivers said yesterday. 416 00:23:37,520 --> 00:23:39,359 Speaker 1: I mean, I'm gonna play a portion of this, but 417 00:23:39,440 --> 00:23:45,600 Speaker 1: he's defending his past playoff exits. Here's Doc Rivers. He's 418 00:23:45,640 --> 00:23:48,280 Speaker 1: gonna use me as an example. But I wish I 419 00:23:48,320 --> 00:23:51,280 Speaker 1: would tell the whole story with me. All Right, um 420 00:23:51,840 --> 00:23:54,800 Speaker 1: My Orlando teams the eighth seed. No one gives me 421 00:23:54,840 --> 00:23:57,720 Speaker 1: credit for getting out against the Pistons who won the title. 422 00:23:58,640 --> 00:24:00,560 Speaker 1: That was in the ah Sea going get I want 423 00:24:00,560 --> 00:24:03,320 Speaker 1: you to go back and look at that roster. I 424 00:24:03,440 --> 00:24:05,520 Speaker 1: dare you go back and look at that roster and 425 00:24:05,600 --> 00:24:09,199 Speaker 1: you would say, what the hell of a coaching dog? Really? 426 00:24:09,680 --> 00:24:13,240 Speaker 1: I mean the Clipper team that we lost three one, 427 00:24:14,040 --> 00:24:17,160 Speaker 1: Chris Paul didn't play in the first two games, it 428 00:24:17,240 --> 00:24:20,760 Speaker 1: was playing on one leg, and we didn't have home court. 429 00:24:20,800 --> 00:24:22,560 Speaker 1: And then the last one, to me is the one 430 00:24:22,600 --> 00:24:24,960 Speaker 1: we blew. That's the one I said, we blew that. 431 00:24:25,359 --> 00:24:27,840 Speaker 1: And now I was in the bubble, and anything could 432 00:24:27,840 --> 00:24:29,960 Speaker 1: happen in the bubble. There's no home four. Game seven 433 00:24:30,000 --> 00:24:34,960 Speaker 1: would have been in La you know, but it just happened. 434 00:24:35,040 --> 00:24:37,359 Speaker 1: So I would say with me, some of them, is 435 00:24:37,400 --> 00:24:39,919 Speaker 1: we got I gotta do better, always always take my 436 00:24:40,040 --> 00:24:44,280 Speaker 1: own responsibility. And then some of it is circumstances happened. 437 00:24:45,680 --> 00:24:49,679 Speaker 1: This sounds like an exit interview. The sounds sounds like 438 00:24:49,720 --> 00:24:53,120 Speaker 1: to me, Dan meme fatigue. This is a man who 439 00:24:53,200 --> 00:24:56,480 Speaker 1: has seen the memes. Oh, this is what doctor Rivers does. 440 00:24:56,600 --> 00:25:01,000 Speaker 1: He loses three one, he loses three h This is 441 00:25:01,040 --> 00:25:04,080 Speaker 1: again the same time of the year where all year 442 00:25:04,160 --> 00:25:07,200 Speaker 1: last year he was defending Ben Simmons and he was saying, 443 00:25:07,320 --> 00:25:09,879 Speaker 1: he's fine, he's our guy, and then right around this 444 00:25:09,960 --> 00:25:11,639 Speaker 1: time of the year he went, I don't know if 445 00:25:11,680 --> 00:25:14,240 Speaker 1: you could win a championship, and all of that good 446 00:25:14,240 --> 00:25:17,040 Speaker 1: stuff got forgotten. It's something about this time of the 447 00:25:17,080 --> 00:25:19,399 Speaker 1: year where Doc just kind of lets it go. But 448 00:25:19,480 --> 00:25:22,879 Speaker 1: it sounded like he had had enough. I am a 449 00:25:22,960 --> 00:25:26,200 Speaker 1: top fifteen coach of all time according to that thing 450 00:25:26,280 --> 00:25:28,840 Speaker 1: that came out earlier this year for top fifteen coaches, 451 00:25:28,880 --> 00:25:32,400 Speaker 1: top seventy five players. Look at my resume. I'm tired 452 00:25:32,480 --> 00:25:37,959 Speaker 1: of the memes. Yeah, but Doc is beloved by the media, 453 00:25:39,480 --> 00:25:42,199 Speaker 1: is he? He got Coach of the Year for an 454 00:25:42,280 --> 00:25:44,879 Speaker 1: Orlando team that went forty one and forty one. They 455 00:25:44,880 --> 00:25:48,560 Speaker 1: didn't even make the playoffs. I think he should be 456 00:25:49,680 --> 00:25:53,840 Speaker 1: criticized even more than he's been criticized. Nobody has lost 457 00:25:54,040 --> 00:25:58,160 Speaker 1: more three one leads. He could lose a three o lead. 458 00:25:59,000 --> 00:26:01,840 Speaker 1: You know, there's a common denominator with all of this. 459 00:26:02,320 --> 00:26:06,200 Speaker 1: We love Doc, but the results don't back up him 460 00:26:06,760 --> 00:26:10,600 Speaker 1: if he loses in this round. Are the Lakers on 461 00:26:10,640 --> 00:26:14,800 Speaker 1: the phone when the buzzer sounds that they lose to Toronto? 462 00:26:15,240 --> 00:26:19,640 Speaker 1: And then they're gonna bring Doc in to coach the Lakers? Right? 463 00:26:20,359 --> 00:26:23,359 Speaker 1: What you just did, right, there was a masterclass of 464 00:26:23,520 --> 00:26:26,280 Speaker 1: radio hosting that you took one story and then you 465 00:26:26,320 --> 00:26:30,439 Speaker 1: put the Lakers on it, whilst I'm gonna put the 466 00:26:30,480 --> 00:26:34,240 Speaker 1: Cowboys in there too somehow, you know what. And if 467 00:26:34,240 --> 00:26:37,080 Speaker 1: they could use some Yankees, yes, that would be awesome. 468 00:26:37,240 --> 00:26:40,600 Speaker 1: And Tom Brady, what's Tom Brady think of Doc Rivers 469 00:26:40,640 --> 00:26:44,119 Speaker 1: blowing three one leads? Don't I don't know if like 470 00:26:44,200 --> 00:26:47,760 Speaker 1: how beloved Doc is. I also thought it was pretty 471 00:26:47,760 --> 00:26:52,760 Speaker 1: disrespectful to haydu Churcolou Rochard Lewis and Dwight Howard and 472 00:26:52,920 --> 00:26:55,480 Speaker 1: that whole crew. Yeah, the Armando team. I mean when 473 00:26:55,520 --> 00:26:59,280 Speaker 1: he says, look at that roster, look at that roster, Okay, 474 00:26:59,320 --> 00:27:01,600 Speaker 1: that was one of the most fun teams that I remember. 475 00:27:02,040 --> 00:27:03,879 Speaker 1: But also like the coach of the year, like you 476 00:27:03,920 --> 00:27:05,920 Speaker 1: were saying, like we love them, they're only forty one. 477 00:27:06,080 --> 00:27:08,280 Speaker 1: We had this weird fascination with coach of the Year 478 00:27:08,320 --> 00:27:10,720 Speaker 1: where we love to reward the coach that took a 479 00:27:10,760 --> 00:27:13,320 Speaker 1: team from bad to average instead of a team from 480 00:27:13,359 --> 00:27:16,240 Speaker 1: good to great. Yet we give a most improved player 481 00:27:16,320 --> 00:27:18,520 Speaker 1: to John Morant, Like that made no sense to me 482 00:27:18,600 --> 00:27:20,680 Speaker 1: at all. No offense job, You're a great, great dunk 483 00:27:20,760 --> 00:27:22,560 Speaker 1: dunk of the year, you should win a million dollars 484 00:27:22,600 --> 00:27:28,000 Speaker 1: according to Paul. But I with Doc. I don't think 485 00:27:28,119 --> 00:27:31,920 Speaker 1: Doc gets any credit for the Celtics championship really, Like 486 00:27:31,960 --> 00:27:33,840 Speaker 1: I feel like it's, oh, that was a big three. 487 00:27:34,200 --> 00:27:36,400 Speaker 1: You're you know, you're right, and so I don't feel 488 00:27:36,400 --> 00:27:38,879 Speaker 1: like he gets the high end of praise. But I 489 00:27:38,920 --> 00:27:43,960 Speaker 1: actually think that he I think he's only remembered for this, 490 00:27:44,359 --> 00:27:46,600 Speaker 1: He's only remembered from blowing these leads. And I also 491 00:27:46,640 --> 00:27:49,159 Speaker 1: want to say, I mean, Joel Embiid did tear a 492 00:27:49,200 --> 00:27:51,280 Speaker 1: ligament in his thumb. It's not like it's just a 493 00:27:51,680 --> 00:27:55,320 Speaker 1: collapse because of bad coaching, like and beads out there 494 00:27:55,320 --> 00:27:58,520 Speaker 1: playing with one hand. Yeah, I know, but guys have Yeah, 495 00:27:58,520 --> 00:28:01,120 Speaker 1: you said Chris Paul was on one Chris Paul average 496 00:28:01,160 --> 00:28:03,720 Speaker 1: like twenty one point and ten assists in that series, 497 00:28:03,960 --> 00:28:07,240 Speaker 1: so he still played. Well, hey we lost in the bubble, 498 00:28:07,320 --> 00:28:12,040 Speaker 1: but hey in the bubble. Okay, everybody was in the bubble. See, 499 00:28:12,119 --> 00:28:14,760 Speaker 1: Doc's not a clutch clients. And that's why I'm thinking 500 00:28:14,800 --> 00:28:17,960 Speaker 1: Mark Jackson could be the coach of the Lakers because 501 00:28:17,960 --> 00:28:21,160 Speaker 1: he's a clutch client. We're talking to Adam leftco by 502 00:28:21,160 --> 00:28:26,280 Speaker 1: the way, don't be bitter, be better? All right, all right? Nice? Yeah, 503 00:28:26,720 --> 00:28:29,359 Speaker 1: I just made that up. That sounds like that's a 504 00:28:29,359 --> 00:28:33,280 Speaker 1: T shirt. Yeah, don't be bitter, be better, Adam Left. 505 00:28:33,359 --> 00:28:35,440 Speaker 1: That's like Shack said to be one time. I was like, Shack, 506 00:28:35,520 --> 00:28:37,640 Speaker 1: you know you're a hater, and he goes, I'm too 507 00:28:37,640 --> 00:28:40,880 Speaker 1: great to hate, and I was like what he was like, 508 00:28:41,040 --> 00:28:43,880 Speaker 1: I'm too great to Hey, I'm just great. That so 509 00:28:43,920 --> 00:28:46,200 Speaker 1: what I say. And I was like, man, I put 510 00:28:46,280 --> 00:28:48,680 Speaker 1: that on a T shirt. That's pretty good. Adam Left 511 00:28:48,680 --> 00:28:52,920 Speaker 1: go TNT inside the NBA guest host and also covering 512 00:28:52,960 --> 00:28:58,720 Speaker 1: the draft for Bleacher Report, give me the draft prospect 513 00:28:59,200 --> 00:29:01,240 Speaker 1: not being mentioned and is a top ten pick that 514 00:29:01,360 --> 00:29:05,720 Speaker 1: will haunt GMS for years to come. Okay, Dan, let 515 00:29:05,760 --> 00:29:07,920 Speaker 1: me ask you a question. These last few drafts, all 516 00:29:07,920 --> 00:29:12,360 Speaker 1: I ever hear about is position importance. Gotta get your quarterbacks, 517 00:29:12,680 --> 00:29:16,960 Speaker 1: gotta get your tackles. But there's always a guy taken 518 00:29:17,000 --> 00:29:19,800 Speaker 1: in the teens that when we do a redraft, we go, 519 00:29:20,080 --> 00:29:23,840 Speaker 1: how did this guy fall? And it's always the same position. Oh, 520 00:29:23,880 --> 00:29:28,880 Speaker 1: Aaron Donald goes eleven, Fletcher Cox goes fourteen, Hellodi Nada 521 00:29:28,960 --> 00:29:33,000 Speaker 1: goes like twelve or thirteen. It's always the defensive tackle 522 00:29:33,080 --> 00:29:36,360 Speaker 1: that nobody cares about. And then we look five years 523 00:29:36,360 --> 00:29:40,000 Speaker 1: and they're dominant the league. How is Jordan Davis not 524 00:29:40,160 --> 00:29:42,720 Speaker 1: being talked about more? How do we talk about a 525 00:29:42,720 --> 00:29:46,320 Speaker 1: guy all year and say he is the biggest dude 526 00:29:46,320 --> 00:29:49,560 Speaker 1: we've ever seen. He's got the fastest forty, he jumps 527 00:29:49,560 --> 00:29:53,800 Speaker 1: the furthest he's on the national championship, he's dominating offensive lines. 528 00:29:54,320 --> 00:29:57,400 Speaker 1: But he can only play two downs. First of all, 529 00:29:57,480 --> 00:30:00,400 Speaker 1: how many downs are there? There's three, right, so playing 530 00:30:00,440 --> 00:30:03,200 Speaker 1: sixty six percent of downs, which sounds pretty good to me. 531 00:30:03,400 --> 00:30:05,880 Speaker 1: But two, you're telling me I just watched Vita Bella, 532 00:30:06,600 --> 00:30:10,720 Speaker 1: also taken fourteenth in his draft, dominate a d line 533 00:30:10,720 --> 00:30:14,280 Speaker 1: and completely arrest defenses all year for the Bucks. I 534 00:30:14,400 --> 00:30:17,680 Speaker 1: just it just doesn't make sense to me sometimes what 535 00:30:17,880 --> 00:30:21,520 Speaker 1: a dude jumps off as an athlete. He's dominant on 536 00:30:21,560 --> 00:30:24,400 Speaker 1: the field. Everyone says he's a leader in the locker room, 537 00:30:24,720 --> 00:30:30,240 Speaker 1: But the NFL is all about passing. Really, like Kyle 538 00:30:30,280 --> 00:30:33,120 Speaker 1: Shanahan's entire offense is built around the running game, and 539 00:30:33,120 --> 00:30:36,400 Speaker 1: that's why we call him the crown Prince of offensive coordinators. 540 00:30:36,680 --> 00:30:39,240 Speaker 1: I think that when we look back five years from now, 541 00:30:39,560 --> 00:30:42,160 Speaker 1: all the teams that passed on Jordan Davis will regret 542 00:30:42,200 --> 00:30:44,480 Speaker 1: it and it will be obvious. Right, there's a hot take. 543 00:30:44,520 --> 00:30:49,160 Speaker 1: All right, well we'll record that play that back in 544 00:30:49,240 --> 00:30:53,960 Speaker 1: five years. Nobody loves defensive tackles, knows tackles like I do. 545 00:30:54,480 --> 00:30:58,880 Speaker 1: No one, really, no one. Danny she favorite Danny Shelton 546 00:30:59,000 --> 00:31:03,080 Speaker 1: out of Against State. Oh, I loved him. I'd come in, 547 00:31:03,200 --> 00:31:05,720 Speaker 1: you know, you'd see these guys and I would say 548 00:31:05,720 --> 00:31:08,120 Speaker 1: to the dance, I go, God, this guy's unbelievable. And 549 00:31:08,120 --> 00:31:10,600 Speaker 1: it'd be a Pac twelve game. I'd be watching late 550 00:31:10,640 --> 00:31:13,880 Speaker 1: at night. You know you'd go, oh, Danny Shelton, what 551 00:31:13,920 --> 00:31:16,680 Speaker 1: do you wear number eight something like that, and I went, 552 00:31:16,800 --> 00:31:20,160 Speaker 1: Danny Shelton's awesome, Brown's draft him. And then you're like, 553 00:31:20,520 --> 00:31:23,200 Speaker 1: whatever happened to Danny Shelton? I don't know, you know, 554 00:31:23,240 --> 00:31:25,600 Speaker 1: but that's not on him. That's on the Dan. It 555 00:31:25,720 --> 00:31:29,480 Speaker 1: took him. So I'm with you with these defensive you know, 556 00:31:29,520 --> 00:31:32,880 Speaker 1: we should be looking for the next Aaron Donald. You 557 00:31:32,920 --> 00:31:35,360 Speaker 1: don't tell me the games are won in the trenches, yes, 558 00:31:35,840 --> 00:31:38,800 Speaker 1: and then completely don't talk to it. Like Dan, You've 559 00:31:38,800 --> 00:31:41,560 Speaker 1: talked to NFL players and they're like, just watch the trenches. 560 00:31:42,000 --> 00:31:44,320 Speaker 1: But then like we're over here being like you need 561 00:31:44,360 --> 00:31:46,920 Speaker 1: a shut down corner and I'm like, or you could drop, 562 00:31:47,000 --> 00:31:49,720 Speaker 1: you could draft jeff a Kuda like we just saw it. 563 00:31:49,800 --> 00:31:53,520 Speaker 1: Like like, I don't know, man, Sometimes it just seems crazy. 564 00:31:53,640 --> 00:31:56,080 Speaker 1: Give me the name that you're struggling with that you 565 00:31:56,160 --> 00:31:59,280 Speaker 1: might have to pronounce. Covering the NFL was just I'm 566 00:31:59,320 --> 00:32:02,320 Speaker 1: so nervous because so we're doing the NFL draft. Bleacher 567 00:32:02,320 --> 00:32:05,560 Speaker 1: Report's going to be the br app tonight, Anatoon YouTube Me, 568 00:32:05,760 --> 00:32:08,760 Speaker 1: Connor Rogers, Mike Felton. They're gonna be joined by Jason Kelsey, 569 00:32:08,880 --> 00:32:12,960 Speaker 1: Richard Sherman to give analysis. Tory Holt. I'm on Saint Brown. 570 00:32:13,360 --> 00:32:16,640 Speaker 1: I went online. It was like twenty twenty two draft pronunciation. Guy, 571 00:32:16,800 --> 00:32:18,920 Speaker 1: let me just crank this all out in one spot, 572 00:32:18,960 --> 00:32:22,520 Speaker 1: and it doesn't exist. And so it's not that there's 573 00:32:22,520 --> 00:32:27,160 Speaker 1: a guy. All I'm hearing from draft people is there 574 00:32:27,200 --> 00:32:29,400 Speaker 1: could be guys taken the first round that we don't 575 00:32:29,400 --> 00:32:32,600 Speaker 1: even have until day three and I haven't even looked 576 00:32:32,640 --> 00:32:35,040 Speaker 1: at them yet, Dann. So there's guys that are going 577 00:32:35,080 --> 00:32:36,960 Speaker 1: to come out of nowhere that I'm just gonna go. 578 00:32:37,640 --> 00:32:43,000 Speaker 1: Look at the linebacker taken by the Raid you know. No, 579 00:32:43,280 --> 00:32:46,240 Speaker 1: that's where you go to the analyst, That's where you go, Wow, 580 00:32:46,440 --> 00:32:49,240 Speaker 1: that's what did you think of that pick by Carolina? 581 00:32:49,440 --> 00:32:52,920 Speaker 1: Let them pronounce the name. It's a beautiful thing when 582 00:32:52,960 --> 00:32:56,479 Speaker 1: you realize the limitations of your own job, and that 583 00:32:56,560 --> 00:32:58,360 Speaker 1: in the end, all I have to do is ask 584 00:32:58,400 --> 00:33:02,560 Speaker 1: a question. Well, when I covered the NBA draft, I 585 00:33:02,640 --> 00:33:07,320 Speaker 1: kept thinking, Nicholas Skittish Beely is going to be coming up, 586 00:33:07,920 --> 00:33:11,120 Speaker 1: and I'm thinking, and I think he went five overall, 587 00:33:11,360 --> 00:33:15,200 Speaker 1: So I'm thinking already, you know, the commissioner comes to 588 00:33:15,240 --> 00:33:17,800 Speaker 1: the podium and you know, with the fourth pick, the 589 00:33:17,840 --> 00:33:21,640 Speaker 1: Portland Trailblazers take Brandon Roy and I'm thinking Brandon Roy 590 00:33:21,640 --> 00:33:23,760 Speaker 1: blah blah blah. All I talk about it, Billis and 591 00:33:23,800 --> 00:33:26,520 Speaker 1: everybody else, and I'm going, when is Nicholas Skittish Beely 592 00:33:26,600 --> 00:33:30,240 Speaker 1: gonna be taken? And the Denver Nuggets select Nicholas Skittish 593 00:33:30,320 --> 00:33:33,040 Speaker 1: Beely And then I thought, I don't want you have 594 00:33:33,080 --> 00:33:36,120 Speaker 1: to say his name, so I went to Billis, I go, 595 00:33:36,200 --> 00:33:37,440 Speaker 1: what do you think? What do you think of the 596 00:33:37,440 --> 00:33:39,640 Speaker 1: pick can? Then he go, Skittish Beely is a really 597 00:33:39,680 --> 00:33:43,520 Speaker 1: talented you know, he's a seven footer run. So you 598 00:33:43,520 --> 00:33:47,320 Speaker 1: don't have to say the names exactly the commissioner does, 599 00:33:47,800 --> 00:33:51,280 Speaker 1: and then your analysts do. Man like I come on 600 00:33:51,360 --> 00:33:54,040 Speaker 1: here and I get these just beautiful pieces of stage 601 00:33:54,040 --> 00:33:59,160 Speaker 1: advice every single time. But like, just remember you, John Stockton. 602 00:34:00,080 --> 00:34:03,400 Speaker 1: I know you're John Stockton. That's your role. You don't 603 00:34:03,480 --> 00:34:07,720 Speaker 1: have to be Karl Malone. You're John Stockton. You'll like 604 00:34:07,800 --> 00:34:10,839 Speaker 1: this story.

Daniel Jeremiah, Great analyst for the NFL 673 00:37:45,640 --> 00:37:48,640 Speaker 1: Network former NFL scout, will join us next hour and 674 00:37:48,840 --> 00:37:51,919 Speaker 1: Alan Iverson final hour of the program. Been a while, 675 00:37:52,080 --> 00:37:55,120 Speaker 1: might be ten years since we've had Ai On. All 676 00:37:55,160 --> 00:37:57,359 Speaker 1: of the younger guys in the back, the back room guys, 677 00:37:57,360 --> 00:37:59,719 Speaker 1: they were all geeked out yesterday. They're like, man, we 678 00:37:59,800 --> 00:38:03,719 Speaker 1: can wait for Iverson's the best I know. It's just 679 00:38:03,760 --> 00:38:08,560 Speaker 1: a whole different generation that AI looked up to Michael Jordan, 680 00:38:09,239 --> 00:38:12,440 Speaker 1: and you know, all these younger players, a lot of 681 00:38:12,480 --> 00:38:15,000 Speaker 1: them looked up to Alan Iverson and he was so 682 00:38:15,040 --> 00:38:17,319 Speaker 1: far ahead of his time when you think about it, 683 00:38:17,760 --> 00:38:22,759 Speaker 1: how he played the style, the tattoos, corn rows, you 684 00:38:22,800 --> 00:38:25,239 Speaker 1: know what he was wearing to a press conference like 685 00:38:25,360 --> 00:38:27,439 Speaker 1: he was the one that was getting criticized for all 686 00:38:27,480 --> 00:38:30,880 Speaker 1: of this before anybody else. But Ai did not change. 687 00:38:31,440 --> 00:38:35,200 Speaker 1: AI came in went out the same way, although I 688 00:38:35,239 --> 00:38:37,239 Speaker 1: hated that he had to go to Turkey to play 689 00:38:37,280 --> 00:38:40,720 Speaker 1: some basketball for like ten games to end his career. 690 00:38:40,800 --> 00:38:43,799 Speaker 1: But Alan Iverson will join us coming up in the 691 00:38:44,040 --> 00:38:47,319 Speaker 1: final hour. Of the program. We see this every year 692 00:38:47,440 --> 00:38:51,200 Speaker 1: where somebody reached in the draft. The draft is littered 693 00:38:51,200 --> 00:38:54,200 Speaker 1: with teams that reached. They go up. New York Times 694 00:38:54,200 --> 00:38:58,320 Speaker 1: had an article and it was really well thought out 695 00:38:58,360 --> 00:39:02,279 Speaker 1: of looking at what these teams do. Where ESPN has 696 00:39:02,400 --> 00:39:05,840 Speaker 1: rankings of all of the players and it's not a 697 00:39:05,920 --> 00:39:11,720 Speaker 1: mock draft. This is just talent and where they ranked 698 00:39:11,760 --> 00:39:15,200 Speaker 1: these players and they're pretty true to where they should 699 00:39:15,280 --> 00:39:19,319 Speaker 1: be ranked. You can go back in time where I've 700 00:39:19,320 --> 00:39:25,280 Speaker 1: got Chris Lidstrom guard with the Falcons. He was ranked 701 00:39:25,320 --> 00:39:29,640 Speaker 1: forty first by ESPN. He went fourteenth. It didn't work out. 702 00:39:30,239 --> 00:39:34,680 Speaker 1: Cleveland Farrell was ranked twenty first. He went fourth to 703 00:39:34,760 --> 00:39:39,120 Speaker 1: the Raiders. Wasn't worth the reach there? John Ross was 704 00:39:39,200 --> 00:39:43,000 Speaker 1: ranked twentieth wide receiver out of Washington. He went ninth 705 00:39:43,080 --> 00:39:47,400 Speaker 1: to the Bengals. Wasn't worth it? Eli Apple ranked twenty fifth. 706 00:39:48,200 --> 00:39:50,640 Speaker 1: Giants went up to ten to take him. That didn't 707 00:39:50,640 --> 00:39:53,720 Speaker 1: work out. There's so many of these players here. Justin 708 00:39:53,880 --> 00:39:58,080 Speaker 1: Gilbert he was ranked twentieth by ESPN. He went eighth. 709 00:39:58,120 --> 00:40:02,840 Speaker 1: Defensive back. I think he was Oklahomas date. Let's see 710 00:40:03,040 --> 00:40:07,200 Speaker 1: Darius Hayward Bay ranked twenty fifth by ESPN. Back in 711 00:40:07,280 --> 00:40:10,400 Speaker 1: two thousand and nine, he went seventh to the Raiders. 712 00:40:10,800 --> 00:40:16,720 Speaker 1: That didn't work out. Daniel Jones. Where was Daniel Jones ranked, Pauline, 713 00:40:16,800 --> 00:40:20,000 Speaker 1: They had him the quarterback from Duke. ESPN had him 714 00:40:20,040 --> 00:40:22,360 Speaker 1: fortieth on their talent rankings. They had him as a 715 00:40:22,440 --> 00:40:24,560 Speaker 1: high second round draft pick. They give us taken six 716 00:40:24,719 --> 00:40:29,279 Speaker 1: Actually they had him fifty fifty ninth and he was 717 00:40:29,320 --> 00:40:34,879 Speaker 1: selected sixth overall. That hasn't worked out, but you're going 718 00:40:34,920 --> 00:40:37,720 Speaker 1: to have teams who are going to reach. There's always 719 00:40:37,719 --> 00:40:43,040 Speaker 1: This is where you should use caution. If ESPN says, hey, 720 00:40:43,120 --> 00:40:46,080 Speaker 1: we don't have any you know, we're not bias towards anybody. 721 00:40:46,160 --> 00:40:49,120 Speaker 1: These are the rankings, and this is where we see 722 00:40:49,160 --> 00:40:51,560 Speaker 1: these players and where they should be sort of in 723 00:40:51,600 --> 00:40:55,719 Speaker 1: that area of where they should be drafted. What happens 724 00:40:55,880 --> 00:40:59,600 Speaker 1: is teams fall in love. Teams think they're smarter than 725 00:40:59,640 --> 00:41:02,319 Speaker 1: every buddy else, and hey, we're gonna go up and 726 00:41:02,320 --> 00:41:05,000 Speaker 1: get this guy. And that's when you get the analysts 727 00:41:05,000 --> 00:41:07,720 Speaker 1: who will say, oh boy, this is a reach because 728 00:41:07,800 --> 00:41:10,840 Speaker 1: they know what the rankings are. Paulie, does ESPN have 729 00:41:10,960 --> 00:41:15,160 Speaker 1: the rankings this year? So the audience could then follow 730 00:41:15,200 --> 00:41:18,759 Speaker 1: along like tomorrow, we could talk about what happens tonight. Yeah, 731 00:41:18,760 --> 00:41:20,360 Speaker 1: based off this New York Times article. If you go 732 00:41:20,400 --> 00:41:24,640 Speaker 1: to ESPN dot com slash draft best Available, Yeah, basically, 733 00:41:24,680 --> 00:41:26,839 Speaker 1: and they put the grade next to the person, like 734 00:41:27,120 --> 00:41:30,200 Speaker 1: Aiden Hutchinson is ranked, is A ninety four is his grade, 735 00:41:30,400 --> 00:41:33,240 Speaker 1: and it goes down Trayvon Walker, Evan the etcetera, etcetera. 736 00:41:33,520 --> 00:41:35,799 Speaker 1: So you could see if um but they have him 737 00:41:35,880 --> 00:41:40,240 Speaker 1: number one though Aiden Hutchinson, right, But if Kenny Pickett 738 00:41:40,280 --> 00:41:43,359 Speaker 1: somehow went tenth, he's a twenty two ranked, twenty second 739 00:41:43,400 --> 00:41:46,080 Speaker 1: ranked player in the draft. And then Malik Willis, if 740 00:41:46,080 --> 00:41:49,600 Speaker 1: he goes twenty to Pittsburgh, he's the twenty first ranked player. 741 00:41:49,960 --> 00:41:53,640 Speaker 1: So those aren't reaches. And I'm trying to think, is 742 00:41:53,680 --> 00:41:59,280 Speaker 1: somebody gonna reach on a wide receiver or like Kyle 743 00:41:59,360 --> 00:42:03,960 Speaker 1: Hamilton the defensive back for Notre Dame, Drake London the 744 00:42:04,000 --> 00:42:07,760 Speaker 1: wide receiver at USC does somebody Jordan Davis? Does somebody reach? 745 00:42:08,440 --> 00:42:11,160 Speaker 1: But that is something that we're going to be using 746 00:42:11,200 --> 00:42:15,600 Speaker 1: to follow along with, Oh wow, they took him fifteen 747 00:42:15,680 --> 00:42:18,240 Speaker 1: picks higher than he should have been where he was ranked. 748 00:42:18,840 --> 00:42:21,120 Speaker 1: Teams are going to do this and try to outsmart 749 00:42:21,520 --> 00:42:24,719 Speaker 1: you know what this list is, the rankings are you know, 750 00:42:25,000 --> 00:42:28,919 Speaker 1: history shows us it's littered with these picks. But that's 751 00:42:28,920 --> 00:42:31,600 Speaker 1: why everybody reacted the way they did when Daniel Jones 752 00:42:31,680 --> 00:42:34,440 Speaker 1: was selected. He's a second round pick. I look at 753 00:42:34,480 --> 00:42:36,880 Speaker 1: all of these quarterbacks. I think they're second round picks 754 00:42:36,920 --> 00:42:39,719 Speaker 1: at best. But you're gonna have a couple of them 755 00:42:39,760 --> 00:42:42,440 Speaker 1: taken in the first round. Will any be taken in 756 00:42:42,480 --> 00:42:46,719 Speaker 1: the top thirteen picks. We'll ask Daniel Jeremiah about that 757 00:42:47,120 --> 00:42:50,200 Speaker 1: coming up. And in an hour from now, Alan iverson 758 00:42:50,520 --> 00:42:53,160 Speaker 1: one more item. We close that hour. One tunnel to 759 00:42:53,280 --> 00:42:56,560 Speaker 1: Towers Foundation broke ground and it's Due Good Village.
