Welcome to the program final hour on this Wednesday. 3 00:00:07,040 --> 00:00:10,039 Speaker 1: We've been all over the map here. Today started the 4 00:00:10,080 --> 00:00:15,360 Speaker 1: show by talking about ESPN seventy four Greatest Players NBA History. 5 00:00:15,920 --> 00:00:18,520 Speaker 1: I'm not sure the criteria what they came up with. 6 00:00:19,120 --> 00:00:21,960 Speaker 1: These are the guidelines. Who you're going to vote, where 7 00:00:22,000 --> 00:00:25,799 Speaker 1: you're going to vote him. Michael Jordan has one Lebronze two, 8 00:00:26,000 --> 00:00:31,000 Speaker 1: Kareem three, Bill Russell four, Magic Johnson five, Wilt Chamberlain six, 9 00:00:31,160 --> 00:00:34,680 Speaker 1: Larry Bird seven, Tim Duncan eight, Kobe Bryant nine, and 10 00:00:34,800 --> 00:00:38,520 Speaker 1: Shaquille O'Neal is ten. I had problems with a couple 11 00:00:38,520 --> 00:00:43,720 Speaker 1: of rankings here, but it still goes back to I 12 00:00:43,760 --> 00:00:46,440 Speaker 1: don't know what it's based upon. If it is the 13 00:00:46,520 --> 00:00:50,520 Speaker 1: trump card winning, because it feels like when you win, 14 00:00:50,960 --> 00:00:52,960 Speaker 1: you're going to be higher on the list. Bill Russell 15 00:00:53,120 --> 00:00:55,680 Speaker 1: is high on the list. He won greatest winner in 16 00:00:55,760 --> 00:01:00,120 Speaker 1: NBA history, greatest winner in team sports history. He's in 17 00:01:00,160 --> 00:01:03,160 Speaker 1: the top five. Is it based on ability? Is it 18 00:01:03,200 --> 00:01:06,560 Speaker 1: based on what you did individually? If I took away 19 00:01:06,560 --> 00:01:10,520 Speaker 1: the postseason, how would these rankings look? So it's it's fun. 20 00:01:11,360 --> 00:01:13,880 Speaker 1: It uh you know, burns a little bit of time here. 21 00:01:14,680 --> 00:01:17,600 Speaker 1: But if you if you do take it seriously, which 22 00:01:17,640 --> 00:01:19,959 Speaker 1: I do, and maybe I'm in the minority. I was 23 00:01:20,000 --> 00:01:24,000 Speaker 1: really bothered by ESPN's college basketball rankings greatest Player of 24 00:01:24,040 --> 00:01:28,039 Speaker 1: all Time because Michael Jordan is not the greatest college 25 00:01:28,040 --> 00:01:31,360 Speaker 1: basketball player of all time. He's in the conversation, but 26 00:01:31,440 --> 00:01:34,440 Speaker 1: he's there's there's others that were better. That was it. 27 00:01:34,920 --> 00:01:37,720 Speaker 1: If we're going to have a list, and then, you know, 28 00:01:37,800 --> 00:01:41,280 Speaker 1: I always feel like my job is in part my wisdom, 29 00:01:42,160 --> 00:01:45,400 Speaker 1: you the history of what I've done and been around 30 00:01:45,480 --> 00:01:48,800 Speaker 1: these players, so you do get a better sense of 31 00:01:49,200 --> 00:01:53,639 Speaker 1: somebody saw somebody play, somebody covered somebody, and I would listen. 32 00:01:53,680 --> 00:01:55,520 Speaker 1: I would defer to Bob Ryan if he was going 33 00:01:55,600 --> 00:01:59,200 Speaker 1: to tell me about the greatness of Casey Jones or 34 00:01:59,560 --> 00:02:02,600 Speaker 1: Bill Ull or Sam Jones with the Boston Celtics. I mean, 35 00:02:02,680 --> 00:02:05,840 Speaker 1: I would listen, and I would I would be stupid 36 00:02:05,880 --> 00:02:09,640 Speaker 1: to not listen to them. And you're looking at guys 37 00:02:09,639 --> 00:02:12,960 Speaker 1: who didn't play well in the postseason or didn't have championships, 38 00:02:13,000 --> 00:02:15,280 Speaker 1: but they were great during the regular season. It's a 39 00:02:15,440 --> 00:02:19,200 Speaker 1: it's a fun debate, but it goes back to what 40 00:02:19,240 --> 00:02:21,520 Speaker 1: I said when I started the show, I always feel 41 00:02:21,520 --> 00:02:25,920 Speaker 1: like I'm tearing down somebody by promoting somebody. Because if 42 00:02:25,960 --> 00:02:29,480 Speaker 1: I say, Bill Russell is not the third best basketball 43 00:02:29,480 --> 00:02:33,799 Speaker 1: player of all time now for just saying how well 44 00:02:33,880 --> 00:02:37,880 Speaker 1: you played basketball, He's not the third or fourth best player. 45 00:02:37,919 --> 00:02:43,120 Speaker 1: He's not greatest team player, yes, best best resume, absolutely, 46 00:02:43,480 --> 00:02:45,919 Speaker 1: And I think ruts. What is the eighty six? Now? 47 00:02:46,120 --> 00:02:49,680 Speaker 1: I think Bill Russell's eighty six. But it's number four 48 00:02:49,720 --> 00:02:52,799 Speaker 1: on the list. Okay, you want to put Magic in there, 49 00:02:53,560 --> 00:02:56,240 Speaker 1: put him at five. You know Willed is in there 50 00:02:56,280 --> 00:02:58,760 Speaker 1: at six, Tim Duncan. But if I just said this 51 00:02:58,800 --> 00:03:00,920 Speaker 1: is regular season, if this is just based off your 52 00:03:00,960 --> 00:03:06,799 Speaker 1: basketball ability, Bill Russell's not in there. Is Tim Duncan 53 00:03:06,919 --> 00:03:10,440 Speaker 1: eighth on the all time list? If it's just basketball ability, 54 00:03:12,560 --> 00:03:16,840 Speaker 1: Shack is ten. Just based on basketball ability. If I 55 00:03:16,919 --> 00:03:21,080 Speaker 1: just took that, let's take away championships now just basketball ability. 56 00:03:21,400 --> 00:03:27,040 Speaker 1: This list is very different. And if you had to 57 00:03:27,040 --> 00:03:28,960 Speaker 1: start your team, Let's say I took Michael Jordan out 58 00:03:28,960 --> 00:03:31,600 Speaker 1: of this. You get three players start your team all time, 59 00:03:33,800 --> 00:03:37,640 Speaker 1: and let's do that. Let's do that. What's the rationale? 60 00:03:37,680 --> 00:03:40,280 Speaker 1: You just you get three players? Now, can we take 61 00:03:40,320 --> 00:03:45,400 Speaker 1: the same three players because I don't I don't want 62 00:03:45,400 --> 00:03:47,040 Speaker 1: to do a snake draft where all of a sudden, 63 00:03:47,520 --> 00:03:53,200 Speaker 1: you know, I'm taking Kawhi Leonard, even though Kawi would 64 00:03:53,200 --> 00:03:57,240 Speaker 1: be a nice player. But let's take Jordan out of it. 65 00:03:58,160 --> 00:04:01,160 Speaker 1: You got three players, PAULI, I'll start with you. You 66 00:04:01,240 --> 00:04:05,320 Speaker 1: got three players, start your team. All my rationale is 67 00:04:05,600 --> 00:04:10,320 Speaker 1: trying to win. Okay, Larry Bird, Akima Lai Juan and 68 00:04:10,440 --> 00:04:18,760 Speaker 1: Kobe Bryant. Okay, Seaton O'Connor. Uh man, it's tough to 69 00:04:18,800 --> 00:04:23,960 Speaker 1: meet for me to not start my team with Lebron. Okay, Um, 70 00:04:24,640 --> 00:04:31,680 Speaker 1: I'm gonna take Shaquille O'Neill, Dan Patrick, and then I 71 00:04:31,720 --> 00:04:34,560 Speaker 1: want to throw in Steph Curry, but uh yeah, I 72 00:04:34,560 --> 00:04:40,160 Speaker 1: think I will. You can, yeah, mclovin. Oh man, I'm 73 00:04:40,200 --> 00:04:43,240 Speaker 1: ceiling for both you guys, because I'm picturing today's game 74 00:04:43,320 --> 00:04:47,440 Speaker 1: outside oriented Lebron with Steph Curry and Larry Bird. Because 75 00:04:47,520 --> 00:04:49,360 Speaker 1: Lebron would drive in and kick out to those guys. 76 00:04:49,360 --> 00:05:00,400 Speaker 1: Oh my god, unstoppable. Um. I love Kareem. I just 77 00:05:00,640 --> 00:05:08,800 Speaker 1: I Kareem would play and dominate in today's game as well. Um, Lebron. Yeah, 78 00:05:08,800 --> 00:05:12,279 Speaker 1: I'm trying. We're playing today's game, today's rules. I think 79 00:05:12,400 --> 00:05:16,279 Speaker 1: is that what we've stumbled upon here? Because if that's 80 00:05:16,279 --> 00:05:19,880 Speaker 1: the case, Steph Curry just went up the list. Um, 81 00:05:22,080 --> 00:05:28,479 Speaker 1: I'm gonna have Lebron in there. Um, so you you 82 00:05:28,520 --> 00:05:30,360 Speaker 1: have Kareem and Lebron, and you have one more spot 83 00:05:30,360 --> 00:05:33,720 Speaker 1: on your roster. I would I would do, Steph Curry. 84 00:05:35,080 --> 00:05:38,240 Speaker 1: I want I want the best center. Now, we couldn't 85 00:05:38,240 --> 00:05:41,080 Speaker 1: have an argument here, but I got the best center, 86 00:05:41,960 --> 00:05:46,000 Speaker 1: i got the best shooter of all time, and I've 87 00:05:46,040 --> 00:05:50,640 Speaker 1: got maybe the best all around player of all time, 88 00:05:50,760 --> 00:05:53,080 Speaker 1: or at least Lebron's in the conversation. Don't want to 89 00:05:53,120 --> 00:05:57,320 Speaker 1: upset anybody in Chicago here. Lebron is in a great facilitator, 90 00:05:57,680 --> 00:05:59,840 Speaker 1: so he can he can do what I need him 91 00:05:59,839 --> 00:06:04,080 Speaker 1: to do. And he's more athletic than Bird, you know. 92 00:06:04,080 --> 00:06:06,400 Speaker 1: Would I'd love to see Bird in today's NBA That 93 00:06:06,440 --> 00:06:10,919 Speaker 1: would be great. But I'll go Lebron, and I'll go Kareem, 94 00:06:11,000 --> 00:06:17,080 Speaker 1: and I'll go Steph Fritzie. I had the names of Magic, Kareem, 95 00:06:17,080 --> 00:06:21,080 Speaker 1: and checkdown all three crusted out. I'm going with Kobe, Bird, Lebron. 96 00:06:21,720 --> 00:06:25,039 Speaker 1: M Okay almost went Kareem, thinking that I need to 97 00:06:25,040 --> 00:06:27,520 Speaker 1: have that big man. But because of what's going on 98 00:06:27,560 --> 00:06:30,159 Speaker 1: in recent years in the NBA, it's a little less important. 99 00:06:30,160 --> 00:06:32,960 Speaker 1: So Kobe Bird and King Ja. Yeah, but this is 100 00:06:33,000 --> 00:06:35,640 Speaker 1: another thing. I know that we love the three and 101 00:06:35,800 --> 00:06:39,520 Speaker 1: the volume of threes. If I have the guy down 102 00:06:39,600 --> 00:06:45,400 Speaker 1: low who I'm guaranteed to score, he'll get forty points 103 00:06:45,400 --> 00:06:49,080 Speaker 1: if I want him to because nobody will stop Kareem. 104 00:06:49,160 --> 00:06:53,960 Speaker 1: There's nobody today. There's no rim protectors today, and so 105 00:06:54,040 --> 00:06:58,960 Speaker 1: I know that I'm getting points there. I got Staff 106 00:06:59,000 --> 00:07:01,799 Speaker 1: who was going to shoot three, and then I got Lebron, 107 00:07:01,839 --> 00:07:03,599 Speaker 1: who's going to do everything else? Ye ask mc glove. 108 00:07:04,400 --> 00:07:06,840 Speaker 1: So I know late career Kareem who is slower. Could 109 00:07:06,880 --> 00:07:08,720 Speaker 1: he run the floor early on? Because if he can 110 00:07:08,839 --> 00:07:11,200 Speaker 1: run the floor, that's was he a good like getting 111 00:07:11,280 --> 00:07:13,840 Speaker 1: up and down guy. Yeah. I mean you're getting them 112 00:07:13,840 --> 00:07:17,480 Speaker 1: in their prime. It's not like you're getting the magic 113 00:07:17,680 --> 00:07:21,160 Speaker 1: is going to resuscitate Kareem years. This is if I 114 00:07:21,200 --> 00:07:24,720 Speaker 1: said I had lull Sendor when he was with Milwaukee. 115 00:07:26,200 --> 00:07:31,320 Speaker 1: I mean, Shack's a beast, but I would be taking 116 00:07:32,120 --> 00:07:35,320 Speaker 1: I just think when if people saw Luell Sendor, because 117 00:07:35,960 --> 00:07:40,200 Speaker 1: this is when Wilt nineteen seventy. So Kareem comes in 118 00:07:40,760 --> 00:07:43,440 Speaker 1: and at the big deal is Wilt. Oh, He's gonna 119 00:07:43,440 --> 00:07:48,360 Speaker 1: show the rookie. Oh man, this was this was the 120 00:07:48,480 --> 00:07:52,520 Speaker 1: changing of the guards where you went Wilt not anymore. 121 00:07:53,880 --> 00:07:57,120 Speaker 1: Luell Sindoor was something the NBA had never seen. Wilt 122 00:07:57,240 --> 00:08:01,000 Speaker 1: was a powerful guy. Kareem was a grace guy. But 123 00:08:01,160 --> 00:08:03,880 Speaker 1: he was also rebounding block shots. I mean he would 124 00:08:03,880 --> 00:08:07,760 Speaker 1: put up thirty and sixteen was there were his averages. 125 00:08:08,520 --> 00:08:11,679 Speaker 1: Now I know Wilt, but Wilt would not have gotten 126 00:08:11,680 --> 00:08:16,240 Speaker 1: away with that against lu All Sendor. Wilt would have 127 00:08:16,240 --> 00:08:18,800 Speaker 1: got or Kareem would have gotten away with that against 128 00:08:18,840 --> 00:08:22,040 Speaker 1: everybody that will played against and we'll played against some 129 00:08:22,040 --> 00:08:27,000 Speaker 1: pretty good bigment But yeah, I just I don't think 130 00:08:27,040 --> 00:08:30,720 Speaker 1: people understand what Kareem did when he was at UCLA, 131 00:08:30,880 --> 00:08:32,920 Speaker 1: when he first got to the Bucks, like he won 132 00:08:32,960 --> 00:08:36,680 Speaker 1: the title, and what an Oscar Oscar was on the 133 00:08:36,720 --> 00:08:42,000 Speaker 1: team that was lu all Sendoor and what a dominating force. 134 00:08:42,640 --> 00:08:44,839 Speaker 1: But I don't know if there's a wrong answer here 135 00:08:44,880 --> 00:08:47,600 Speaker 1: with this. So I think it's it's it's it's interesting 136 00:08:47,880 --> 00:08:50,360 Speaker 1: and it makes you. I love when people talk about 137 00:08:50,400 --> 00:08:53,920 Speaker 1: the players who used to play. That's my favorite part 138 00:08:53,920 --> 00:08:56,800 Speaker 1: of this is that we don't forget. I got into 139 00:08:56,840 --> 00:09:00,400 Speaker 1: this discussion argument with Chris Mannox, who covers the NBA 140 00:09:00,480 --> 00:09:03,959 Speaker 1: for Sports Illustrated, and I said, look, Russell Westbrook is 141 00:09:04,000 --> 00:09:07,800 Speaker 1: a far greater athlete than Rick Berry, far greater, I mean, 142 00:09:07,840 --> 00:09:11,200 Speaker 1: not a better basketball player, that's all. And we get 143 00:09:11,240 --> 00:09:13,480 Speaker 1: caught up in all this guy he couldn't survive today. 144 00:09:13,559 --> 00:09:16,440 Speaker 1: This guy if he played back then. I'm just telling 145 00:09:16,440 --> 00:09:19,360 Speaker 1: you what these people did when they played. And Rick 146 00:09:19,400 --> 00:09:21,760 Speaker 1: Barry was one of the great scores in the history 147 00:09:21,760 --> 00:09:24,280 Speaker 1: of the game. And he won an NBA championship for 148 00:09:24,320 --> 00:09:28,079 Speaker 1: a Golden State team that wasn't packful of stars. They 149 00:09:28,120 --> 00:09:33,120 Speaker 1: had Jamal Wilkes. That was their big name on that team. 150 00:09:38,440 --> 00:09:42,040 Speaker 1: It's a fun it's a fun discussion only for the 151 00:09:42,040 --> 00:09:44,839 Speaker 1: sole reason that we talk about guys that you never 152 00:09:44,880 --> 00:09:50,920 Speaker 1: got to see, you know. Just I never want people 153 00:09:50,920 --> 00:09:56,400 Speaker 1: to forget about Jerry west I just he was he 154 00:09:56,480 --> 00:09:59,120 Speaker 1: was great. He just didn't he didn't win championships. If 155 00:09:59,160 --> 00:10:02,520 Speaker 1: he did, then it would be different. Pete Merovitch was 156 00:10:02,559 --> 00:10:05,560 Speaker 1: a wonderful player. Now was he a great player? Not 157 00:10:05,600 --> 00:10:09,800 Speaker 1: in the NBA, but he was fascinating to watch. Bill Walton, 158 00:10:10,360 --> 00:10:12,480 Speaker 1: if he was healthy, could have turned out to be 159 00:10:12,679 --> 00:10:14,719 Speaker 1: as good a big man, maybe the best big man 160 00:10:14,760 --> 00:10:18,040 Speaker 1: of all time. He understood the game he played selfishly. 161 00:10:18,640 --> 00:10:21,640 Speaker 1: That Portland team is my favorite team of all time. 162 00:10:21,640 --> 00:10:23,640 Speaker 1: When they won the title, they lost the first two 163 00:10:23,640 --> 00:10:25,960 Speaker 1: to Philadelphia and Doctor j. They came back and swept 164 00:10:26,040 --> 00:10:29,720 Speaker 1: him in fourth. It is the purest basketball I ever saw. 165 00:10:30,840 --> 00:10:35,400 Speaker 1: The Blazers with Jack Ramsey. They didn't have stars Mo Lucas, 166 00:10:36,160 --> 00:10:42,880 Speaker 1: Johnny Davis, Dave Towards Zick. They just had Bobby Gross. 167 00:10:43,280 --> 00:10:47,880 Speaker 1: They had a great team and Larry Steele. That's what 168 00:10:48,040 --> 00:10:50,840 Speaker 1: made it so much fun to watch a team that 169 00:10:50,960 --> 00:10:54,760 Speaker 1: beat a team of Hall of famers in the seventy 170 00:10:54,800 --> 00:10:58,680 Speaker 1: six ers. Yeah, the two players that it bothers me 171 00:10:58,720 --> 00:11:00,800 Speaker 1: because of my age, and that's that the NBA wasn't 172 00:11:00,840 --> 00:11:04,000 Speaker 1: really televised in the late seventies or mid seventies, not 173 00:11:04,040 --> 00:11:06,440 Speaker 1: getting to see doctor j. Julie serving in his prime 174 00:11:06,520 --> 00:11:09,520 Speaker 1: and karemadul Jabar. I saw Julius serving when he was 175 00:11:09,520 --> 00:11:11,959 Speaker 1: on the last third of his career, still a very 176 00:11:11,960 --> 00:11:14,120 Speaker 1: good player. But the Sixers. But I remember thinking to 177 00:11:14,120 --> 00:11:17,200 Speaker 1: myself a little too much fuss because what I saw 178 00:11:17,240 --> 00:11:20,000 Speaker 1: with You know, I was more into Barkley and karemadul Jabbar. 179 00:11:20,160 --> 00:11:22,360 Speaker 1: You saw him with the Lakers. He was still very good, 180 00:11:22,800 --> 00:11:24,600 Speaker 1: but he wasn't the best player in the league. So 181 00:11:24,679 --> 00:11:27,400 Speaker 1: unfortunately those that was a cutoff when I started watching 182 00:11:27,400 --> 00:11:30,320 Speaker 1: those two guys. Yeah, I just go back to when 183 00:11:30,640 --> 00:11:34,400 Speaker 1: elsendor came into the Bucks and it was just different. 184 00:11:34,720 --> 00:11:39,480 Speaker 1: That was a true two way player in modern basketball, 185 00:11:39,760 --> 00:11:43,800 Speaker 1: and he was dominating Lucas in Virginia. Hi, Luke, what 186 00:11:43,840 --> 00:11:47,079 Speaker 1: do you have for me today? Hey Dave, I'm like 187 00:11:47,320 --> 00:11:51,600 Speaker 1: yourself the goat tall. It goes all too much. But 188 00:11:51,800 --> 00:11:53,439 Speaker 1: she rang up a point to me where you and 189 00:11:53,559 --> 00:11:56,160 Speaker 1: I agree, Michael Georgians is not the greatest college bassi 190 00:11:56,240 --> 00:11:59,360 Speaker 1: player of all time. Watching the highlights, I'm only twenty six, 191 00:11:59,520 --> 00:12:02,120 Speaker 1: I get to see some of these great players. But 192 00:12:02,280 --> 00:12:05,800 Speaker 1: I got to agree how Sindoor farn was the best, 193 00:12:05,840 --> 00:12:09,600 Speaker 1: the most dominant player. So we're talking when we said 194 00:12:09,640 --> 00:12:12,360 Speaker 1: the best basketball player of all time? Are weak them 195 00:12:12,440 --> 00:12:16,199 Speaker 1: buying college man pro? Are we just saying just a 196 00:12:16,360 --> 00:12:19,880 Speaker 1: pro career? Because if that's the case, how Sindoor is 197 00:12:19,880 --> 00:12:22,520 Speaker 1: the greatest ever. The way he backed it up from 198 00:12:22,640 --> 00:12:25,720 Speaker 1: RCLA to the Bucks and so forth, or Michael didn't 199 00:12:26,040 --> 00:12:29,880 Speaker 1: be yourize in a UNC. Yeah, I mean Michael won 200 00:12:29,920 --> 00:12:32,320 Speaker 1: the title there at North Carolina. If just you know 201 00:12:32,400 --> 00:12:35,280 Speaker 1: my argument, if you're the best college basketball player of 202 00:12:35,320 --> 00:12:37,280 Speaker 1: all time, how can you have a year when you 203 00:12:37,320 --> 00:12:39,560 Speaker 1: weren't even the best player on your own team and 204 00:12:39,720 --> 00:12:42,240 Speaker 1: James Worthy was the college basketball player of the year. 205 00:12:42,760 --> 00:12:46,440 Speaker 1: It's not a knock against Michael. It's just applying some 206 00:12:46,520 --> 00:12:50,120 Speaker 1: logic to the situation here. And you know Michael's had 207 00:12:50,160 --> 00:12:53,280 Speaker 1: this research. And you know who benefited from the last dance, 208 00:12:53,840 --> 00:12:58,440 Speaker 1: Scottie Pippen. Scottie Pippens up on the list. Is Scottie 209 00:12:58,520 --> 00:13:04,000 Speaker 1: top thirty? Maybe? Yeah, McLevin I thought the same thing. 210 00:13:04,040 --> 00:13:06,800 Speaker 1: I didn't remember his vicious dunk sound like Patrick Ewing, 211 00:13:06,800 --> 00:13:09,320 Speaker 1: and that he was so physically imposing at that time. 212 00:13:09,800 --> 00:13:13,120 Speaker 1: I'm trying to think, here, where's Scottie Pippen. Pippin is 213 00:13:13,160 --> 00:13:18,319 Speaker 1: twenty first, twenty first, So let me give you the 214 00:13:18,360 --> 00:13:21,440 Speaker 1: people behind Scottie Pippen. Elgin Baylor. Once again, I saw 215 00:13:21,520 --> 00:13:23,640 Speaker 1: Elgin at the end of his career. He had had 216 00:13:23,840 --> 00:13:26,800 Speaker 1: knee surgery and he was nowhere near what he once was. 217 00:13:27,200 --> 00:13:32,720 Speaker 1: Great college player and a great basketball player for the Lakers. Barkley, 218 00:13:34,040 --> 00:13:37,319 Speaker 1: David Robinson is behind Scottie Pippen, Kawhi Leonard, Dwayne Wade, 219 00:13:37,320 --> 00:13:40,800 Speaker 1: the Greek Freak, John Stockton, Allen Iverson, Steve nashal Izaiah Thomas, 220 00:13:40,960 --> 00:13:47,600 Speaker 1: James Harden, John Howell, check Scotty benefited. You know, if 221 00:13:47,640 --> 00:13:52,360 Speaker 1: I think from the last dance, is he better than Barkley? 222 00:13:52,720 --> 00:13:55,360 Speaker 1: I can't roll with that one. I think Barkley's drastically 223 00:13:55,400 --> 00:13:58,480 Speaker 1: underrated as a player because he's so entertaining off the 224 00:13:58,520 --> 00:14:03,120 Speaker 1: court that under his career he was a phenomenon. Scottie one, 225 00:14:03,720 --> 00:14:06,400 Speaker 1: Scottie one. But if we're if we're taking away resume, 226 00:14:06,440 --> 00:14:08,520 Speaker 1: like you said, if we're taking away basketball playing ability 227 00:14:08,559 --> 00:14:11,480 Speaker 1: and carrying a team, Charles Barkley was able to do 228 00:14:11,520 --> 00:14:14,559 Speaker 1: that well. Scotty took a team that should have gone 229 00:14:14,600 --> 00:14:18,400 Speaker 1: to the NBA Finals a bad call by Hugh Hollins 230 00:14:18,400 --> 00:14:21,320 Speaker 1: against the Knicks and Scotti with the fifties. They won 231 00:14:21,400 --> 00:14:25,440 Speaker 1: fifty seven games that year without Michael. They won fifty 232 00:14:25,480 --> 00:14:28,760 Speaker 1: seven without Michael. How's that possible? Yes, mclovin, is he 233 00:14:28,800 --> 00:14:36,200 Speaker 1: better than David Robinson? See then I get into these 234 00:14:36,280 --> 00:14:41,280 Speaker 1: damn arguments where I'm I love the Admiral Scotty was 235 00:14:41,320 --> 00:14:46,840 Speaker 1: a spectacular all around player, spectacular, But do I think 236 00:14:46,880 --> 00:14:50,320 Speaker 1: he's the twenty first best basketball player of all time? 237 00:14:50,360 --> 00:14:57,800 Speaker 1: I don't. If I'm building my team, how many of 238 00:14:57,840 --> 00:15:00,680 Speaker 1: these guys do you individually? Would you pick out if 239 00:15:00,720 --> 00:15:02,400 Speaker 1: you said you were going to build your team and 240 00:15:02,400 --> 00:15:08,000 Speaker 1: you got one guy. Now, obviously Michael and lebron kareem. 241 00:15:08,720 --> 00:15:12,240 Speaker 1: You can make a case for Magic and Bird, Kobe, Shack, 242 00:15:13,720 --> 00:15:18,120 Speaker 1: Elijah One, even Steph Curry in today's game. What I 243 00:15:18,120 --> 00:15:21,800 Speaker 1: built around Durknavitsky, what I built around Kevin Garnett, Charles Buck. 244 00:15:21,840 --> 00:15:25,280 Speaker 1: You know, does that change the argument here? The discussion? 245 00:15:25,320 --> 00:15:27,720 Speaker 1: Am I building around Scottie Pippen? And the answer is no, 246 00:15:27,880 --> 00:15:32,800 Speaker 1: you're not. But Scottie was. He was great, He was 247 00:15:32,880 --> 00:15:38,119 Speaker 1: great in understanding his role with Michael, I mean, Iverson 248 00:15:38,280 --> 00:15:41,320 Speaker 1: was See, there are just so many great players. I mean, 249 00:15:41,360 --> 00:15:45,520 Speaker 1: it's just but I will accept this list, be grudgingly 250 00:15:45,760 --> 00:15:50,040 Speaker 1: accepted if it means we talk about these players that 251 00:15:50,080 --> 00:15:54,640 Speaker 1: people didn't get to see or we remember. If it 252 00:15:54,680 --> 00:15:56,720 Speaker 1: forces you to go back and say, let me see 253 00:15:56,760 --> 00:15:59,680 Speaker 1: what he's talking about with Rick Barry and you go 254 00:15:59,720 --> 00:16:02,840 Speaker 1: back and watch some of the highlights there. Okay, great, 255 00:16:03,440 --> 00:16:09,880 Speaker 1: then mission accomplished. Moses Malone eighteenth on the list. He 256 00:16:10,000 --> 00:16:14,960 Speaker 1: was a beast, absolute beast. Couldn't jump, didn't run, wasn't 257 00:16:14,960 --> 00:16:18,080 Speaker 1: a great shooter. But you had an offensive rebound to 258 00:16:18,120 --> 00:16:21,280 Speaker 1: get a put back. He was doing it. And I 259 00:16:21,320 --> 00:16:24,120 Speaker 1: remember when he came out of high school and he 260 00:16:24,200 --> 00:16:26,880 Speaker 1: was going to the ABA, like we wanted to see 261 00:16:26,880 --> 00:16:33,000 Speaker 1: Moses Malone because he was a big deal. Doctor j 262 00:16:33,280 --> 00:16:35,880 Speaker 1: was a bad dude. Man. Golly, there's just so many, 263 00:16:36,120 --> 00:16:39,120 Speaker 1: so many on there, so many yeah, point, you know. 264 00:16:39,200 --> 00:16:41,400 Speaker 1: The one thing I've always felt a little bad for 265 00:16:41,480 --> 00:16:44,080 Speaker 1: David Robinson's place in history because a couple of things 266 00:16:44,120 --> 00:16:46,560 Speaker 1: hurt him. He missed his first two years he was 267 00:16:46,560 --> 00:16:48,800 Speaker 1: in the service, so he didn't start till he's twenty four. 268 00:16:49,440 --> 00:16:51,520 Speaker 1: But and then he heard his back and so some 269 00:16:51,600 --> 00:16:54,160 Speaker 1: of his best years in the public eye, he was 270 00:16:54,200 --> 00:16:55,800 Speaker 1: not the same David Robinson. He was still on a 271 00:16:55,880 --> 00:16:58,000 Speaker 1: very good team, but Tim Duncan became the focal point. 272 00:16:58,240 --> 00:17:01,400 Speaker 1: He became the second best player. But if in his prime, 273 00:17:01,600 --> 00:17:03,920 Speaker 1: there's a six year stretch where he had a season 274 00:17:04,000 --> 00:17:08,640 Speaker 1: David Robinson where average thirty points, eleven rebounds, five assists, 275 00:17:08,760 --> 00:17:11,520 Speaker 1: and three blocks and two steals. He was the most 276 00:17:11,520 --> 00:17:15,320 Speaker 1: complete player in the entire NBA, but he was out 277 00:17:15,320 --> 00:17:19,000 Speaker 1: there was San Antonio and it was not getting enough coverage. Well, 278 00:17:19,080 --> 00:17:22,720 Speaker 1: because Duncan won titles is how he's up on this list. 279 00:17:22,760 --> 00:17:25,840 Speaker 1: Because playing in a smaller market, a guy who didn't 280 00:17:25,880 --> 00:17:28,960 Speaker 1: do commercials, who was not there to do interviews, he 281 00:17:29,040 --> 00:17:34,560 Speaker 1: was sort of the the He won more than John 282 00:17:34,600 --> 00:17:37,120 Speaker 1: Stockton did, but their approach to the game and being 283 00:17:37,160 --> 00:17:41,040 Speaker 1: a star was the same. Stockton didn't care. He couldn't 284 00:17:41,080 --> 00:17:44,800 Speaker 1: care less about being interviewed, He didn't care about, you know, 285 00:17:44,880 --> 00:17:47,679 Speaker 1: getting any kind of star treatment. He just wanted to 286 00:17:47,720 --> 00:17:50,760 Speaker 1: play and win. And the Admiral was the same way. 287 00:17:51,080 --> 00:17:53,320 Speaker 1: The first time I met him at the Naval Academy, 288 00:17:53,560 --> 00:17:58,040 Speaker 1: like he just had this humility to him. Mike and 289 00:17:58,040 --> 00:17:59,879 Speaker 1: Florida Joints is, Hey, Mike, what do you have for me? 290 00:18:01,920 --> 00:18:06,400 Speaker 1: Dan have the going buddy. It's well, I know how 291 00:18:06,440 --> 00:18:10,800 Speaker 1: you love these lists, right, I mean I was thinking 292 00:18:10,840 --> 00:18:13,760 Speaker 1: that we could somehow mold together the hot guy draft 293 00:18:13,920 --> 00:18:16,240 Speaker 1: with this list and have like the best looking NBA 294 00:18:16,359 --> 00:18:19,200 Speaker 1: player guy in said, you know, I think Rip Fox 295 00:18:19,280 --> 00:18:23,240 Speaker 1: is a one team for sure. I can't. I can't 296 00:18:23,240 --> 00:18:25,840 Speaker 1: do another list here my ansome NBA player draft. No, 297 00:18:25,960 --> 00:18:29,840 Speaker 1: I can't do that. No, I'm I'm actually knee deep 298 00:18:29,880 --> 00:18:31,800 Speaker 1: in the nuts and bolts of the history of the game.

Earlier today, 318 00:19:34,880 --> 00:19:38,640 Speaker 1: he sent me this trivia question from a fan, Steve Nash, 319 00:19:38,720 --> 00:19:41,440 Speaker 1: one of two players NBA history to have been named 320 00:19:41,440 --> 00:19:45,800 Speaker 1: regular season MVP and not play in an NBA Championship 321 00:19:45,840 --> 00:19:48,879 Speaker 1: game the other one. And then mclovin didn't give me 322 00:19:48,920 --> 00:19:51,360 Speaker 1: the other one. I go, well, wait a minute, it's 323 00:19:51,359 --> 00:19:53,720 Speaker 1: a nice trivia question, but you gotta have the answer 324 00:19:53,800 --> 00:19:56,879 Speaker 1: for me. We'll blame the fans. I think I have it. 325 00:19:57,400 --> 00:19:59,040 Speaker 1: Do you want to give me a hint, I'll give 326 00:19:59,040 --> 00:20:01,480 Speaker 1: you a hint.

Oh boy, But that's been the injuries, right. 334 00:20:34,080 --> 00:20:36,320 Speaker 1: We don't know how his career would have unfolded. Man, 335 00:20:36,520 --> 00:20:40,399 Speaker 1: he had he had a great start. He that was 336 00:20:40,440 --> 00:20:42,679 Speaker 1: a whole different like when you watched him play, like 337 00:20:42,760 --> 00:20:48,280 Speaker 1: you were going, wow, okay, that's a little different here. Um, 338 00:20:48,480 --> 00:20:52,560 Speaker 1: Now Janis hasn't played in the finals, right, that's true. 339 00:20:53,080 --> 00:20:56,360 Speaker 1: Oh that's true. So that yeah, gosh, okay, all right, 340 00:20:56,800 --> 00:21:01,159 Speaker 1: Well it started out as a decent tribute question. Paully 341 00:21:01,320 --> 00:21:07,240 Speaker 1: just sent me. Okay, openings open during segment, not before 342 00:21:08,080 --> 00:21:16,159 Speaker 1: scrolled down these instructions. Did you guys get this from Paulli? Okay? 343 00:21:16,200 --> 00:21:22,120 Speaker 1: All right, I can't hear your headshake on radio. All right? 344 00:21:22,160 --> 00:21:33,760 Speaker 1: All the Rams, the Rams uniforms, okay, um, okay, I'm 345 00:21:33,160 --> 00:21:39,240 Speaker 1: I'm They're very bright. The helmet is the new school. 346 00:21:40,000 --> 00:21:42,720 Speaker 1: It's it's kind of an old school new school combo 347 00:21:42,920 --> 00:21:46,479 Speaker 1: like this, late seventies uniforms, glammed up. I'm gonna go 348 00:21:46,640 --> 00:21:49,399 Speaker 1: thumbs up on this. I'm gonna give them a thumbs up. 349 00:21:49,440 --> 00:21:51,240 Speaker 1: I know we've been banging on the Rams a little 350 00:21:51,240 --> 00:21:55,680 Speaker 1: bit here, um seton. What do you think? Well, I'm 351 00:21:55,720 --> 00:21:59,480 Speaker 1: going to just to give you the alternate um opinion. Okay. 352 00:21:59,560 --> 00:22:04,720 Speaker 1: Someone on Twitter described these as these are the uniforms 353 00:22:04,720 --> 00:22:07,200 Speaker 1: you'd see in a commercial where a Best Buy employee 354 00:22:07,200 --> 00:22:13,160 Speaker 1: has a dream sequence about it being a football player. Risis, wow, Wow, 355 00:22:14,400 --> 00:22:17,280 Speaker 1: I'm I'm gonna go okay on these, I'm gonna go 356 00:22:17,400 --> 00:22:20,480 Speaker 1: thumbs up. Yes, Tom, I like the blue ones in 357 00:22:20,480 --> 00:22:22,680 Speaker 1: particular with the yellow pants. I think those are pretty 358 00:22:22,680 --> 00:22:26,960 Speaker 1: cool looking. Yeah, I like it. I like school about that. Yeah, 359 00:22:26,960 --> 00:22:30,200 Speaker 1: you got that new horn on him. Though. On the helmet, 360 00:22:32,600 --> 00:22:34,119 Speaker 1: it's not as bad as I thought it was going 361 00:22:34,160 --> 00:22:38,600 Speaker 1: to look. And did you see the numeros, the numerals 362 00:22:38,640 --> 00:22:42,280 Speaker 1: and the numbers. You get numeros there. Uh, it goes 363 00:22:42,400 --> 00:22:45,800 Speaker 1: from the gold and then it's sort of tapers off 364 00:22:45,960 --> 00:22:49,640 Speaker 1: to a lighter, almost wider part of the bottom part 365 00:22:49,680 --> 00:22:53,080 Speaker 1: of the jersey number. Yeah, Seaton, So how does that? 366 00:22:53,200 --> 00:22:56,040 Speaker 1: How does the tapered part work on this situation? But 367 00:22:56,119 --> 00:22:58,280 Speaker 1: not for the Jaguars helmet where it sort of tapers 368 00:22:58,320 --> 00:23:02,080 Speaker 1: into a different color. Well, I don't like the actual 369 00:23:02,119 --> 00:23:05,040 Speaker 1: colors that they have. Yeah, that's true. And plus the 370 00:23:05,119 --> 00:23:08,719 Speaker 1: Jags aren't any good, so that that hurts. As of factors. 371 00:23:09,400 --> 00:23:12,120 Speaker 1: It is amazing though, if you're good, that will somehow. 372 00:23:12,160 --> 00:23:16,040 Speaker 1: Like those cream sickle uniforms with Tampa Bay, when they 373 00:23:16,080 --> 00:23:19,119 Speaker 1: first brought those and started playing, they were horrible. The 374 00:23:19,160 --> 00:23:21,600 Speaker 1: team was. Therefore, we made fun of the cream sickle, 375 00:23:21,840 --> 00:23:24,200 Speaker 1: and I think Tampa Bay took it personally and went, Okay, 376 00:23:24,280 --> 00:23:27,480 Speaker 1: we're gonna we're gonna retire the cream sickle. Well, you 377 00:23:27,480 --> 00:23:30,280 Speaker 1: can bring back the sickle because now you got Tommy 378 00:23:30,320 --> 00:23:32,560 Speaker 1: in town, and those uniforms are gonna gonna look a 379 00:23:32,560 --> 00:23:35,600 Speaker 1: whole lot better. All right, So the RAM uniforms, I'm 380 00:23:35,640 --> 00:23:38,200 Speaker 1: okay with it. Somebody's got to say something nice about 381 00:23:38,200 --> 00:23:41,919 Speaker 1: the Rams. What bothers you, Paul? Well, there's something I'm 382 00:23:41,960 --> 00:23:44,920 Speaker 1: confused by on the RAMS uniforms on the shoulder because 383 00:23:44,920 --> 00:23:47,760 Speaker 1: this thing that says a patches says Los Angeles Rams 384 00:23:47,760 --> 00:23:50,000 Speaker 1: in case you're confused on what team they were, says 385 00:23:50,040 --> 00:23:51,600 Speaker 1: Los Angeles Rams. I don't know if this is going 386 00:23:51,680 --> 00:23:54,400 Speaker 1: to be a permanent little logo on the shoulder front 387 00:23:54,440 --> 00:23:56,679 Speaker 1: shoulder of the uniform that says Los Angeles Rams, or 388 00:23:56,760 --> 00:24:01,560 Speaker 1: is that a holding stitch for the new spot. Sir, well, 389 00:24:01,600 --> 00:24:03,840 Speaker 1: we are headed in that direction. Yeah, that is that 390 00:24:04,000 --> 00:24:07,000 Speaker 1: is for sure. Me Like Sofi is going to be 391 00:24:07,040 --> 00:24:12,119 Speaker 1: sponsoring the Sofi Rams likely? Uh, let me see Ruben 392 00:24:12,200 --> 00:24:14,639 Speaker 1: in California. Ruben, what do you have for me today? 393 00:24:15,960 --> 00:24:21,480 Speaker 1: I don't know I just just said there, thank you. 394 00:24:21,560 --> 00:24:25,840 Speaker 1: Ruben got a bad connection there, Anthony and Florida joints 395 00:24:25,880 --> 00:24:30,040 Speaker 1: us Hey, Anthony, Hey, Dan Dannett's first time A long 396 00:24:30,080 --> 00:24:36,240 Speaker 1: time sixty one, two sixty one. Dan. I'm a little 397 00:24:36,400 --> 00:24:38,640 Speaker 1: a little younger than you by about nine years. So 398 00:24:38,920 --> 00:24:42,000 Speaker 1: I started watching pro ball seventy five, seventy six thick 399 00:24:42,119 --> 00:24:44,959 Speaker 1: doctor James had So if we're going to exclude Michael 400 00:24:45,320 --> 00:24:49,440 Speaker 1: from the list, I would take Doctor j Larry, Bird, Kareem, 401 00:24:49,520 --> 00:24:53,679 Speaker 1: and Stefan Curry solely for the outside shooting. And the 402 00:24:53,720 --> 00:24:56,879 Speaker 1: other three were I mean they were bad guys. I 403 00:24:56,920 --> 00:24:59,880 Speaker 1: mean they were bad. You know what, they could fight. 404 00:25:00,119 --> 00:25:03,280 Speaker 1: There was physical guys today a little sock. So I 405 00:25:03,280 --> 00:25:07,640 Speaker 1: think in their prime Bird, Magic, Doctor Jay, and Kareem 406 00:25:07,640 --> 00:25:13,359 Speaker 1: are I'm sorry, Bird, Doctor Jay, Kareem in their prime. Okay, 407 00:25:13,440 --> 00:25:16,320 Speaker 1: I don't see any people from today really touching that 408 00:25:16,400 --> 00:25:19,680 Speaker 1: prime for prime. Yeah, I mean we were cheated by Bird, 409 00:25:19,880 --> 00:25:22,800 Speaker 1: you know, the bad back. You know, Larry had less 410 00:25:22,800 --> 00:25:25,439 Speaker 1: than a ten year career. I mean he inflicted a 411 00:25:25,440 --> 00:25:28,679 Speaker 1: lot of damage on people during that time frame. And 412 00:25:28,840 --> 00:25:32,120 Speaker 1: there for a while, there was three consecutive years where 413 00:25:32,119 --> 00:25:34,800 Speaker 1: he was the best player in the NBA, but then 414 00:25:35,320 --> 00:25:37,880 Speaker 1: bad back took over. You know, you look at Larry's 415 00:25:37,920 --> 00:25:41,520 Speaker 1: best year, look at Lebron's best year, look at Larry's 416 00:25:41,560 --> 00:25:44,800 Speaker 1: best year, and I think you'd be surprised if I 417 00:25:44,840 --> 00:25:49,640 Speaker 1: said Larry was better up until that point. I think, 418 00:25:49,720 --> 00:25:52,240 Speaker 1: up until they were thirty, Larry was a better player 419 00:25:52,280 --> 00:25:56,240 Speaker 1: in their career. But Lebron is blown past Larry. Yeah, 420 00:25:56,280 --> 00:25:59,000 Speaker 1: poem Larry Bird's final healthy season, he was thirty one 421 00:25:59,040 --> 00:26:03,960 Speaker 1: years old. It's thirty points, ten rebounds, six assists, two 422 00:26:03,960 --> 00:26:07,080 Speaker 1: steals in a block, and he shot forty two percent 423 00:26:07,160 --> 00:26:14,680 Speaker 1: from three? What did he shoot from the field? Yeah, 424 00:26:14,920 --> 00:26:18,200 Speaker 1: is Lebron still shooting at a higher percentage than Michael Jordan? 425 00:26:20,240 --> 00:26:23,000 Speaker 1: Just shooting percentage, Not from three, No, just shooting percentage, 426 00:26:23,040 --> 00:26:28,520 Speaker 1: total shooting percentage, because you would think Michael mostly mid 427 00:26:28,600 --> 00:26:33,439 Speaker 1: range jumpers and dunks. Just to compare Lebron James at 428 00:26:33,480 --> 00:26:35,679 Speaker 1: thirty one years old, same as Bird. Here, it's twenty 429 00:26:35,680 --> 00:26:39,639 Speaker 1: five points, seven and afree bounds, seven assists, steal on 430 00:26:39,680 --> 00:26:43,120 Speaker 1: a block. Yeah, I mean Larry was better at that age. 431 00:26:43,520 --> 00:26:47,720 Speaker 1: Lebron is a better basketball player, you know, once he 432 00:26:47,720 --> 00:26:50,800 Speaker 1: got into his thirties, you know, Lebron separated himself from 433 00:26:50,840 --> 00:26:56,480 Speaker 1: quite a few people here. Let me see Monty in Kansas. Hey, Monty, 434 00:26:56,560 --> 00:27:00,480 Speaker 1: we got a scoreboard winner for Fritzie's scoreboard content. Mattin 435 00:27:00,560 --> 00:27:03,359 Speaker 1: Virginia will have the numbers here coming up, Hey Monty, 436 00:27:03,400 --> 00:27:06,919 Speaker 1: how are you good? First time long time? Five eleven 437 00:27:07,000 --> 00:27:11,879 Speaker 1: one ninety wanted to weigh in on the probably mentioned 438 00:27:11,960 --> 00:27:14,080 Speaker 1: not being able to see Doctor J when he was 439 00:27:14,119 --> 00:27:17,000 Speaker 1: in his prime. And I grew up in Denver, Colorado, 440 00:27:17,359 --> 00:27:20,920 Speaker 1: a huge ABA fan, and the ABA had some great players, 441 00:27:21,600 --> 00:27:26,560 Speaker 1: David Thompson, George McGinnis, George Gervin, artist Gilmore, and I 442 00:27:26,600 --> 00:27:29,560 Speaker 1: saw Doctor J a lot in his prime, and he 443 00:27:29,840 --> 00:27:33,000 Speaker 1: was far and away the best basketball player I've ever seen. 444 00:27:33,840 --> 00:27:36,480 Speaker 1: His hands were huge, he could jump out of the gym, 445 00:27:37,119 --> 00:27:39,879 Speaker 1: and he just knew what was going on. Well, thank you, Monty, 446 00:27:40,000 --> 00:27:43,600 Speaker 1: I appreciate that. See, this is what's good about the list, 447 00:27:43,640 --> 00:27:46,240 Speaker 1: that we have people who saw some of these guys 448 00:27:46,320 --> 00:27:49,200 Speaker 1: play in their prime. I don't want to be to 449 00:27:49,240 --> 00:27:52,280 Speaker 1: get off my lawn radio guy, but certainly sound like that. 450 00:27:53,520 --> 00:27:55,840 Speaker 1: I want you to get on my lawn. I don't 451 00:27:55,840 --> 00:27:58,000 Speaker 1: want you to get off my line. Get on my lawn. 452 00:27:58,520 --> 00:28:01,919 Speaker 1: Have a beer folding chair and I'll fire up the trigger, 453 00:28:02,440 --> 00:28:06,040 Speaker 1: get on my lawn. But yeah, doctor j was that 454 00:28:06,119 --> 00:28:11,400 Speaker 1: was something new to the NBA. Well Aba then the NBA. 455 00:28:11,920 --> 00:28:15,600 Speaker 1: Kenny in Ohio, Hi, Kenny, what do you have for me? Hey? 456 00:28:15,680 --> 00:28:18,720 Speaker 1: They're dan first time, long time on a five nine 457 00:28:18,800 --> 00:28:22,680 Speaker 1: question mark on the way Okay. I wanted to bring 458 00:28:22,760 --> 00:28:25,200 Speaker 1: up Carmelo Anthony. You know, he was one of the 459 00:28:25,240 --> 00:28:28,080 Speaker 1: top you know, he was a top five scorer for 460 00:28:28,200 --> 00:28:32,560 Speaker 1: ten years. I don't know how artists Filmore's on that listbok, 461 00:28:32,640 --> 00:28:37,720 Speaker 1: Carmelo's not. In addition to him, you have Hakim, who 462 00:28:38,040 --> 00:28:42,400 Speaker 1: really dominated Shack in the nineties, and Shack really had 463 00:28:42,520 --> 00:28:49,760 Speaker 1: no other dominant centers after youing Robinson and Hackem retired. 464 00:28:50,360 --> 00:29:00,000 Speaker 1: I really don't know how Hakim is or than Shaquille. Yeah, 465 00:29:00,160 --> 00:29:04,400 Speaker 1: team's my favorite center. You know, I'd think Abdul Jabbar 466 00:29:04,560 --> 00:29:07,360 Speaker 1: is the most dominating. But if you said watching a 467 00:29:07,440 --> 00:29:10,880 Speaker 1: center play the position at a high level, Hakim was 468 00:29:10,960 --> 00:29:14,800 Speaker 1: always that and he's a wonderful He was a wonderful person. Uh. 469 00:29:14,920 --> 00:29:19,040 Speaker 1: You know, Walton played it as purely as possible, and 470 00:29:19,200 --> 00:29:22,320 Speaker 1: Kareem to me, was unstoppable. Shack was just a force. 471 00:29:22,400 --> 00:29:24,760 Speaker 1: That was you thought Wilt was a force, and then 472 00:29:24,840 --> 00:29:28,200 Speaker 1: Jack came in and you know, Shack could run the 473 00:29:28,240 --> 00:29:31,600 Speaker 1: floor too. Now it's it's there's just so many names 474 00:29:31,640 --> 00:29:36,040 Speaker 1: in here, and it's great because I was fortunate to watch, 475 00:29:36,440 --> 00:29:39,720 Speaker 1: you know, the Cincinnati Royals. You know, they were in 476 00:29:39,800 --> 00:29:42,680 Speaker 1: Cincinnati obviously, but not for a long time. And it's 477 00:29:42,720 --> 00:29:46,120 Speaker 1: a more of a college basketball town than an NBA town. 478 00:29:46,680 --> 00:29:48,680 Speaker 1: But I got to go, and I had friends who 479 00:29:48,720 --> 00:29:53,520 Speaker 1: had cars and to drive me to see the Cincinnati Royals, 480 00:29:53,680 --> 00:29:56,360 Speaker 1: even on a school night. And to be able to 481 00:29:56,360 --> 00:29:59,320 Speaker 1: watch these teams. So the Lakers, the Lake, you know, 482 00:29:59,520 --> 00:30:02,440 Speaker 1: the Lake or Greats with Jerry West, come into town 483 00:30:02,720 --> 00:30:07,000 Speaker 1: with the Knicks with that magical those magical teams, the Bullets, 484 00:30:07,480 --> 00:30:13,560 Speaker 1: Earl the Pearl, Monroe Marovich came to town Chicago Bowls 485 00:30:13,600 --> 00:30:16,640 Speaker 1: with Bob Love and Chet Walker and to be able 486 00:30:16,640 --> 00:30:19,840 Speaker 1: to see them and see them in person, and it 487 00:30:20,120 --> 00:30:22,760 Speaker 1: just and I always had great seats because there was 488 00:30:22,760 --> 00:30:25,880 Speaker 1: nobody there. We'd sneak in three hours before the game 489 00:30:26,040 --> 00:30:30,880 Speaker 1: started and I shot hoops with some of the Bullets, 490 00:30:30,920 --> 00:30:36,960 Speaker 1: Baltimore Bullets back then, Mike Reardon when the Atlanta Hawks 491 00:30:37,000 --> 00:30:39,080 Speaker 1: came to town. Like it was just it was magical. 492 00:30:39,280 --> 00:30:42,320 Speaker 1: You were able to watch these great players. Not many 493 00:30:42,320 --> 00:30:44,880 Speaker 1: people there watching them in Cincinnati, and then the Royals 494 00:30:44,880 --> 00:30:49,640 Speaker 1: eventually went to Kansas City, but I had I got 495 00:30:49,640 --> 00:30:52,240 Speaker 1: to see Nate Archibald. And if you want to talk 496 00:30:52,240 --> 00:30:55,640 Speaker 1: about somebody having a great season, like Nate had one 497 00:30:55,680 --> 00:30:58,680 Speaker 1: of the great seasons of all time. Last place team, 498 00:30:58,800 --> 00:31:02,840 Speaker 1: he led the league in we're an assist. It's hard 499 00:31:02,840 --> 00:31:05,640 Speaker 1: to do, you know, because you think if you're a 500 00:31:05,680 --> 00:31:07,840 Speaker 1: last place team, you don't have anybody to throw the 501 00:31:07,840 --> 00:31:11,680 Speaker 1: ball to. And Nate Archibald, he was five ten, probably 502 00:31:11,720 --> 00:31:14,760 Speaker 1: one fifty five, and he went left every single time. 503 00:31:14,920 --> 00:31:19,360 Speaker 1: Every single time. He couldn't be stopped. So you have 504 00:31:19,440 --> 00:31:21,960 Speaker 1: those memories, and that's what's great. If if we're talking 505 00:31:22,000 --> 00:31:25,840 Speaker 1: about these players and remembering how great they were, that's 506 00:31:25,880 --> 00:31:28,800 Speaker 1: that's what's so much fun. Sonny in Alabama, Hey Sonny, 507 00:31:28,840 --> 00:31:32,320 Speaker 1: what do you have for me? Hey Man? Got up? 508 00:31:32,400 --> 00:31:35,160 Speaker 1: My brother in law he played at Alabama and played 509 00:31:35,200 --> 00:31:39,760 Speaker 1: against pistol. Pete said he would come down court he 510 00:31:39,920 --> 00:31:42,160 Speaker 1: was guarded and he was a point guard at Alabama, 511 00:31:42,880 --> 00:31:47,080 Speaker 1: Jimmy Holland, and he said Pete would come down cross 512 00:31:47,160 --> 00:31:50,160 Speaker 1: half court and just put it. H put sixty nine 513 00:31:50,240 --> 00:31:53,840 Speaker 1: on him with no three point line. Yeah, you know 514 00:31:53,880 --> 00:31:56,920 Speaker 1: at the time, and we would get the SEC game 515 00:31:56,960 --> 00:31:59,320 Speaker 1: of the week and it was usually Kentucky playing somebody, 516 00:31:59,560 --> 00:32:05,280 Speaker 1: and Kentucky had great players, and then Marivitch would get 517 00:32:05,320 --> 00:32:09,800 Speaker 1: his forty forty five and the LSU would lose, and 518 00:32:11,120 --> 00:32:13,760 Speaker 1: Kentucky knew this. Kentucky was like, Marivitch's gonna get his, 519 00:32:14,040 --> 00:32:16,200 Speaker 1: it doesn't matter, We're gonna win the game. And that's 520 00:32:16,280 --> 00:32:20,280 Speaker 1: usually what happened there. Mike in Minnesota, Hey, Mike, would 521 00:32:20,320 --> 00:32:27,400 Speaker 1: he have for me today? He again? Five ten money? 522 00:32:28,440 --> 00:32:31,080 Speaker 1: Sitting at my house for the last few months, but 523 00:32:31,200 --> 00:32:34,120 Speaker 1: I've been concerned and wondering about what's going to happen 524 00:32:34,400 --> 00:32:39,560 Speaker 1: if there is no college football and no NFL football. 525 00:32:39,680 --> 00:32:41,400 Speaker 1: Who's going to determine or how are they going to 526 00:32:41,440 --> 00:32:44,240 Speaker 1: determine who gets the first overall pick and who will 527 00:32:44,320 --> 00:32:48,120 Speaker 1: be the first overall pick. Well, I think we're gonna 528 00:32:48,160 --> 00:32:51,320 Speaker 1: have football. I mean that is a really big hypothetical. 529 00:32:53,880 --> 00:32:57,800 Speaker 1: I'm gonna guess we're having pro football. I think it's 530 00:32:57,840 --> 00:33:01,720 Speaker 1: going to start later. I still believe that first month 531 00:33:01,880 --> 00:33:04,440 Speaker 1: is in doubt, and then we'll take those four games 532 00:33:04,440 --> 00:33:06,120 Speaker 1: and put them at the back end of the schedule. 533 00:33:06,440 --> 00:33:10,120 Speaker 1: But I I don't know how they would do. Who 534 00:33:10,200 --> 00:33:13,800 Speaker 1: gets the what would be the draft order? Yeah, McLoone. 535 00:33:14,400 --> 00:33:17,040 Speaker 1: I mean, and that hypothetical. The Bengals would have to 536 00:33:17,080 --> 00:33:19,040 Speaker 1: look at Trevor Lawren. I mean, I know they would, 537 00:33:19,240 --> 00:33:23,320 Speaker 1: but it is it's an amazing hypothetical. Oh good, we 538 00:33:23,400 --> 00:33:25,800 Speaker 1: got a little bit of time for we get there. Uh. 539 00:33:26,320 --> 00:33:30,360 Speaker 1: George in Arizona, Hi, George, what do you have for me? Hey? Dan, Hi, 540 00:33:30,440 --> 00:33:35,520 Speaker 1: you're doing good. Sir Herm Edwards here at Arizona State 541 00:33:35,680 --> 00:33:40,800 Speaker 1: my school. He said, they're one hundred players on his side, 542 00:33:40,880 --> 00:33:44,280 Speaker 1: a hundred players on the other side, fifty Anslary people 543 00:33:44,480 --> 00:33:49,200 Speaker 1: fifty that's almost four hundred people per game. How do 544 00:33:49,240 --> 00:33:52,920 Speaker 1: you transport them carefully? What do you do test them? 545 00:33:54,360 --> 00:33:57,440 Speaker 1: I don't. I don't know, George, I really don't. And 546 00:33:57,520 --> 00:34:02,240 Speaker 1: people think that I'm weaponizing this coronavirus. You know, people 547 00:34:02,680 --> 00:34:06,440 Speaker 1: chat row saying, you know, I'm getting political. I'm just 548 00:34:06,520 --> 00:34:09,279 Speaker 1: like you. I have questions, I have doubts, I have 549 00:34:09,360 --> 00:34:13,000 Speaker 1: concerned I want everybody to go back to normal. I 550 00:34:13,040 --> 00:34:16,200 Speaker 1: want sports to come back. I hope it comes back. 551 00:34:16,560 --> 00:34:20,080 Speaker 1: I'd love to be wrong that I'm overly cautious here, 552 00:34:20,400 --> 00:34:24,320 Speaker 1: love to be wrong. If it goes away tomorrow, I 553 00:34:24,680 --> 00:34:29,400 Speaker 1: will shout from the mountaintops. I apologize. But all I 554 00:34:29,480 --> 00:34:32,680 Speaker 1: know is when we first got word of this, and 555 00:34:32,760 --> 00:34:36,400 Speaker 1: I came on the air and said, if this is 556 00:34:36,440 --> 00:34:40,799 Speaker 1: going to mirror what is happening in Italy, we are 557 00:34:40,920 --> 00:34:47,319 Speaker 1: in trouble. That's it. I just it's been a long 558 00:34:47,360 --> 00:34:51,000 Speaker 1: two months for everybody here. I do not talk politics. 559 00:34:51,520 --> 00:34:56,600 Speaker 1: I don't I try not to, but that doesn't stop 560 00:34:56,640 --> 00:35:00,279 Speaker 1: me from talking what I believe or common sense or 561 00:35:00,320 --> 00:35:02,640 Speaker 1: if I talk to somebody and I have information here, 562 00:35:02,920 --> 00:35:07,800 Speaker 1: I have no agenda. I'm not here to change you 563 00:35:07,800 --> 00:35:13,120 Speaker 1: your political beliefs. I just want to talk about it 564 00:35:13,160 --> 00:35:17,040 Speaker 1: in a way that we can talk about it instead 565 00:35:17,080 --> 00:35:19,560 Speaker 1: of as soon as I say say, oh, well we 566 00:35:19,640 --> 00:35:23,799 Speaker 1: know how he vote, you don't know. And that's not 567 00:35:23,920 --> 00:35:25,879 Speaker 1: what this is about. I'm not trying to win any 568 00:35:26,000 --> 00:35:30,799 Speaker 1: argument here. Well you're a president or I don't care 569 00:35:30,840 --> 00:35:34,440 Speaker 1: about that. As God is my witness, I could not 570 00:35:34,640 --> 00:35:39,000 Speaker 1: care less about that. Then, even if I was talking politics, 571 00:35:39,040 --> 00:35:42,960 Speaker 1: I can't change your politics. Nobody's ever changed their politics 572 00:35:43,160 --> 00:35:46,000 Speaker 1: when somebody is telling them their side and then you 573 00:35:46,040 --> 00:35:49,920 Speaker 1: eventually go, oh, you know what, On second thought, you 574 00:35:50,080 --> 00:35:57,279 Speaker 1: like people you agree with and vice versa. That's all 575 00:35:57,320 --> 00:36:02,120 Speaker 1: this is. So if you want you're weaponizing this, I'm not. 576 00:36:02,600 --> 00:36:05,400 Speaker 1: If you want to make this about politics, that's on you, 577 00:36:05,520 --> 00:36:09,160 Speaker 1: not on me. I just want to understand the entire 578 00:36:09,239 --> 00:36:13,160 Speaker 1: picture here. This has nothing to do with the president 579 00:36:13,280 --> 00:36:17,279 Speaker 1: in my opinion, no matter who the president is. And 580 00:36:17,400 --> 00:36:20,200 Speaker 1: I want you to know this so we can stop 581 00:36:20,239 --> 00:36:24,920 Speaker 1: with the rhetoric where it's politics. You're weaponizing this. Just stop. 582 00:36:26,120 --> 00:36:31,360 Speaker 1: I won't allow it. I'll allow discussion, and if I'm wrong, 583 00:36:31,520 --> 00:36:33,600 Speaker 1: I'll be the first to admit it. I'd love to 584 00:36:33,640 --> 00:36:36,960 Speaker 1: be wrong where we can come back, where we can 585 00:36:37,040 --> 00:36:39,960 Speaker 1: go to restaurants where people who have been out of work. 586 00:36:40,040 --> 00:36:43,080 Speaker 1: I would love for that to happen and go back 587 00:36:43,080 --> 00:36:46,279 Speaker 1: to being the best country in the world, all of 588 00:36:46,320 --> 00:36:49,759 Speaker 1: those things. If not, ESPN's got to keep coming up 589 00:36:49,760 --> 00:36:51,560 Speaker 1: with these damn lists so I have something to talk 590 00:36:51,600 --> 00:36:54,880 Speaker 1: about every single day.

I guess I think those home 619 00:38:25,560 --> 00:38:28,680 Speaker 1: runs by Mickey Mantel were like over four hundred feet. 620 00:38:29,160 --> 00:38:32,000 Speaker 1: I think all three of those were tape measure jobs. 621 00:38:32,040 --> 00:38:35,960 Speaker 1: There a couple of phone calls in here, Nick and Idaho, Hi, Nick, 622 00:38:36,000 --> 00:38:41,840 Speaker 1: what do you have for me today? Adp Six three 623 00:38:40,640 --> 00:38:45,239 Speaker 1: one ninety Just really quick. Wanted to go back to 624 00:38:45,360 --> 00:38:49,319 Speaker 1: Pauli's comments about Charles Barkley being such a dominant force 625 00:38:49,360 --> 00:38:51,960 Speaker 1: from the NBA and how the Last Dance was kind 626 00:38:51,960 --> 00:38:55,720 Speaker 1: of brought that back to light. But has his personality 627 00:38:56,000 --> 00:38:58,960 Speaker 1: on TV kind of overshadowed that and to compare it 628 00:38:59,000 --> 00:39:02,800 Speaker 1: to other sports Nick Faldo and golf and Johnny Miller 629 00:39:03,000 --> 00:39:05,960 Speaker 1: or Chris Collinsworth in the NFL. Just curious to hear 630 00:39:06,000 --> 00:39:09,200 Speaker 1: your thoughts. What do you think their personalities on TV 631 00:39:09,560 --> 00:39:13,640 Speaker 1: have overshadowed their playing careers. Yeah, in a sense, you 632 00:39:13,719 --> 00:39:17,200 Speaker 1: kind of forget how dominant they were in their respective sports. Yeah, 633 00:39:17,200 --> 00:39:19,439 Speaker 1: I think with Charles that and thanks for the phone 634 00:39:19,440 --> 00:39:23,799 Speaker 1: called Nick, I could see that where you know Barkley, 635 00:39:23,920 --> 00:39:26,839 Speaker 1: we know him as a personality, and you forget how 636 00:39:26,880 --> 00:39:30,640 Speaker 1: great he was as a player. John Madden, how many 637 00:39:30,640 --> 00:39:33,799 Speaker 1: people remember him as a TV personality and a guy 638 00:39:33,800 --> 00:39:37,919 Speaker 1: who created the Madden Football Game. You forget about the coach. 639 00:39:37,960 --> 00:39:41,279 Speaker 1: I think he's the fastest to one hundred wins in 640 00:39:41,320 --> 00:39:47,040 Speaker 1: football history, in NFL history Hall of Fame coach Johnny Miller, 641 00:39:47,880 --> 00:39:51,720 Speaker 1: before he got the yips, was a spectacular player, wonderful player. 642 00:39:51,800 --> 00:39:54,000 Speaker 1: Faldo was one of the great players of all time. 643 00:39:55,200 --> 00:39:59,680 Speaker 1: But yeah, and Collinsworth, people forget that Chris. For a 644 00:39:59,719 --> 00:40:02,640 Speaker 1: few years there was you know, Pro Bowl worthy. I 645 00:40:02,640 --> 00:40:04,400 Speaker 1: don't know if he was a Pro Bowl wide receiver, 646 00:40:04,560 --> 00:40:07,719 Speaker 1: but Chris was a dangerous deep threat for the Cincinnati 647 00:40:07,760 --> 00:40:13,160 Speaker 1: Bengals back then.

I did go 657 00:40:39,760 --> 00:40:42,640 Speaker 1: to Eisen, but I couldn't get to Damn Patrick m DP. 658 00:40:42,920 --> 00:40:45,359 Speaker 1: I agree with something you said earlier about Bill Wussle. Listen, 659 00:40:45,719 --> 00:40:48,160 Speaker 1: there's no way that Bill Wilson was a greater player 660 00:40:48,200 --> 00:40:50,719 Speaker 1: than World chamberlains. I think world champions should be hiring 661 00:40:50,760 --> 00:40:54,120 Speaker 1: the list. And my problem with lists, dance and is 662 00:40:54,200 --> 00:40:56,840 Speaker 1: when the media brings championships to fit their side of 663 00:40:56,840 --> 00:40:59,160 Speaker 1: the argument. And I'll give you an example. If Bill 664 00:40:59,239 --> 00:41:01,319 Speaker 1: Russell was a great a team champion of all times, 665 00:41:01,600 --> 00:41:03,880 Speaker 1: you know who number two was, well, his birth had 666 00:41:03,920 --> 00:41:05,960 Speaker 1: just passed a couple of days ago. That would be 667 00:41:06,040 --> 00:41:08,440 Speaker 1: Yogi Berra. So when people talk about who's the greatest 668 00:41:08,480 --> 00:41:12,640 Speaker 1: catcher and MLB history, they don't say, oh, Jogi d 669 00:41:12,719 --> 00:41:16,000 Speaker 1: eleven championships and three mbps. No, we all know it's 670 00:41:16,080 --> 00:41:18,840 Speaker 1: Johnny Benn. So when it's convenient for the media to 671 00:41:18,960 --> 00:41:21,279 Speaker 1: bring up championships for this side of the argument. They 672 00:41:21,360 --> 00:41:23,520 Speaker 1: bring up to the argument and the fame thing goes 673 00:41:23,880 --> 00:41:27,320 Speaker 1: with Dan Marino and football. All right, thank you, Rick, No, 674 00:41:28,360 --> 00:41:32,799 Speaker 1: I mean it goes back to what is the criteria 675 00:41:32,880 --> 00:41:34,799 Speaker 1: here when you come up with these lists? And as 676 00:41:34,840 --> 00:41:37,880 Speaker 1: long as I know what is being voted upon or 677 00:41:37,920 --> 00:41:41,040 Speaker 1: factored in, I'm fine with that, and they're they're just list. 678 00:41:41,880 --> 00:41:45,440 Speaker 1: Can't take him so seriously, Tod, what did you learn today, Todd? 679 00:41:45,800 --> 00:41:49,440 Speaker 1: Tom Brady didn't appreciate Mike Rabel waving his arms, fling open, 680 00:41:49,560 --> 00:41:53,320 Speaker 1: Tom throwing the ball to him. Mclovin Mannic said that 681 00:41:53,400 --> 00:41:55,680 Speaker 1: Russell Westbrook would beat Rick Berry one on one, no 682 00:41:55,800 --> 00:42:00,439 Speaker 1: way seton like Rabel lives in the frat house. Head 683 00:42:00,440 --> 00:42:02,720 Speaker 1: coach of the Raptors, Nick Nurse on the program tomorrow, 684 00:42:02,760 --> 00:42:03,279 Speaker 1: talk to you then,
