<v Speaker 2>maybe get Demonse gets to another plaquet two hundred thousand.

0:01:28.040 --> 0:01:29.400
<v Speaker 3>I don't know. I think there's.

0:01:29.240 --> 0:01:32.640
<v Speaker 2>Probably not another plaque coming until a million. Demanse look great,

0:01:32.720 --> 0:01:33.560
<v Speaker 2>love the sweatshirt.

0:01:33.560 --> 0:01:34.000
<v Speaker 3>How are you?

0:01:34.800 --> 0:01:37.240
<v Speaker 4>Thank you, Sarah. I'm good, pretty good. Can't complain. How

0:01:37.319 --> 0:01:37.680
<v Speaker 4>you doing.

0:01:38.600 --> 0:01:41.319
<v Speaker 2>I'm doing well. So I have funny thing that Demonse

0:01:41.440 --> 0:01:49.080
<v Speaker 2>doesn't know. Last night, during halftime of the Knicks game,

0:01:49.760 --> 0:01:52.920
<v Speaker 2>It's like it's halftime. I've been on a bit of

0:01:52.920 --> 0:01:56.040
<v Speaker 2>a fortnight kick lately. I'm like, I think I have

0:01:56.320 --> 0:01:59.840
<v Speaker 2>just enough time during halftime to get a quick four

0:02:00.120 --> 0:02:02.960
<v Speaker 2>night game in in my office and I'll know when

0:02:02.960 --> 0:02:05.200
<v Speaker 2>the game's angs. I'll put it on the upper TVs

0:02:05.800 --> 0:02:09.000
<v Speaker 2>and like one minute after logging on, I get a

0:02:09.040 --> 0:02:12.280
<v Speaker 2>little alert, says DeMont. Your friend demands a bird is

0:02:12.840 --> 0:02:15.160
<v Speaker 2>I'm like, I wonder if he did the same thing.

0:02:15.360 --> 0:02:18.120
<v Speaker 2>I'm like, I wonder if he was like, all right, halftime,

0:02:18.480 --> 0:02:20.080
<v Speaker 2>let me get a little call of duty. I mean,

0:02:20.120 --> 0:02:21.880
<v Speaker 2>you're not a Fortnite guy. You're more of a call

0:02:21.919 --> 0:02:25.079
<v Speaker 2>of duty guy. But I even thought.

0:02:24.840 --> 0:02:25.880
<v Speaker 3>Of texting you.

0:02:27.600 --> 0:02:29.680
<v Speaker 4>Past halftime the.

0:02:30.680 --> 0:02:33.320
<v Speaker 2>Yeah and well right, Well, the thing is Fortnite can

0:02:33.320 --> 0:02:35.639
<v Speaker 2>be real fast, you can get the you can get

0:02:35.720 --> 0:02:36.320
<v Speaker 2>killed quickly.

0:02:36.480 --> 0:02:38.920
<v Speaker 3>Whatever. Good to see you. We have a ton to do.

0:02:39.080 --> 0:02:42.760
<v Speaker 2>We have a new three time MVP h Jalen Brunson.

0:02:42.880 --> 0:02:46.680
<v Speaker 2>The legend just grows. We'll get into all of that. Uh,

0:02:47.360 --> 0:02:51.120
<v Speaker 2>but first, here's what missed the cut. What missed the

0:02:51.160 --> 0:02:55.560
<v Speaker 2>cut for today's show is Charles Barkley says New York

0:02:55.639 --> 0:03:00.160
<v Speaker 2>City is overrated. However, he does love the as he

0:03:00.200 --> 0:03:03.760
<v Speaker 2>calls it, street meat. I'll tell you when I first

0:03:04.160 --> 0:03:07.760
<v Speaker 2>before I moved to New York. When I first I

0:03:07.760 --> 0:03:10.720
<v Speaker 2>did an internship for ESPN Radio in New York City

0:03:11.200 --> 0:03:16.200
<v Speaker 2>one summer of college, and coming from the Midwest, the

0:03:16.280 --> 0:03:18.920
<v Speaker 2>fact that I could just walk down the street and

0:03:19.040 --> 0:03:22.000
<v Speaker 2>get a hot dog or a kebab or a kinish

0:03:22.440 --> 0:03:25.480
<v Speaker 2>was one of my absolute favorite things about the city.

0:03:25.800 --> 0:03:29.360
<v Speaker 2>So I get white people who don't live here love

0:03:29.480 --> 0:03:32.600
<v Speaker 2>the food carts and just the hot you know, fresh

0:03:32.720 --> 0:03:35.200
<v Speaker 2>is maybe not the right word, but any food that

0:03:35.240 --> 0:03:40.200
<v Speaker 2>you are eating seconds after it was prepared is delicious.

0:03:40.760 --> 0:03:45.040
<v Speaker 2>That's like the entire key to Benni, Hannah and Habachi. Like,

0:03:45.120 --> 0:03:47.680
<v Speaker 2>I don't know that that is as great as it

0:03:47.840 --> 0:03:52.320
<v Speaker 2>tastes in any setting other than moments after it's on

0:03:52.360 --> 0:03:56.040
<v Speaker 2>the grill you're eating it. Travis Kelsey's gonna appear in

0:03:56.080 --> 0:03:59.280
<v Speaker 2>a new horror series, and there's officially an Office spin

0:03:59.360 --> 0:04:01.600
<v Speaker 2>off in the work. I think I'd love the Office,

0:04:01.640 --> 0:04:05.320
<v Speaker 2>but I've never seen a single episode of the English

0:04:05.440 --> 0:04:09.680
<v Speaker 2>version or the American version. All right, demanse, let's get

0:04:09.720 --> 0:04:12.480
<v Speaker 2>to the MVP news. Then we'll get to the playoff

0:04:12.600 --> 0:04:13.960
<v Speaker 2>MVP Jalen Brunson.

0:04:14.920 --> 0:04:18.159
<v Speaker 4>So, yeah, Jokers won his third MVP in four years.

0:04:18.440 --> 0:04:22.680
<v Speaker 4>So you started off off Jokich's bandwagon, then you jumped on,

0:04:22.880 --> 0:04:24.839
<v Speaker 4>and then it seems like you've jumped off after his

0:04:24.880 --> 0:04:27.840
<v Speaker 4>two bad games to Minnesota. And you said that you

0:04:27.880 --> 0:04:30.480
<v Speaker 4>would have voted Luca this year. So does that mean

0:04:30.520 --> 0:04:33.800
<v Speaker 4>in your eyes that Joker should be a zero time MVP.

0:04:35.000 --> 0:04:35.160
<v Speaker 2>No.

0:04:35.480 --> 0:04:37.080
<v Speaker 3>So here's the So.

0:04:38.640 --> 0:04:42.440
<v Speaker 2>If you look at how I say I would have

0:04:42.560 --> 0:04:46.240
<v Speaker 2>voted each of the last four years, it would appear

0:04:47.480 --> 0:04:52.040
<v Speaker 2>that I would have never voted for Joker, because what

0:04:52.120 --> 0:04:57.039
<v Speaker 2>I have said on TV is that CP three was

0:04:57.080 --> 0:05:02.400
<v Speaker 2>my MVP three years ago, Luca was my MVP two

0:05:02.480 --> 0:05:07.600
<v Speaker 2>years ago, Embiid was my MVP last year, and Luca

0:05:07.640 --> 0:05:13.880
<v Speaker 2>was my MVP this year. But had any of those

0:05:14.000 --> 0:05:17.479
<v Speaker 2>previous MVPs gone the way I thought they should have,

0:05:18.480 --> 0:05:23.200
<v Speaker 2>then my future MVP feelings would have changed. And I

0:05:23.320 --> 0:05:28.240
<v Speaker 2>know to some people that seems against the rules, like no,

0:05:28.440 --> 0:05:31.960
<v Speaker 2>it's this season in a vacuum only, but that is

0:05:32.080 --> 0:05:38.039
<v Speaker 2>simply not how it's ever been done. So if I,

0:05:38.040 --> 0:05:41.640
<v Speaker 2>if I were able to change history, so to speak,

0:05:42.440 --> 0:05:49.640
<v Speaker 2>the last four MVPs would have been Chris Paul, Luca, Joker, Joker.

0:05:50.720 --> 0:05:54.400
<v Speaker 2>So I one of the reasons that I did not think,

0:05:54.600 --> 0:05:57.240
<v Speaker 2>and Embiid would be the one, you know, without a

0:05:57.360 --> 0:06:02.080
<v Speaker 2>chair unfortunately. But the the reason that I did not

0:06:02.240 --> 0:06:04.520
<v Speaker 2>think Joker should have been the MVP last year was

0:06:04.560 --> 0:06:07.119
<v Speaker 2>because of the president about guy winning three in a row,

0:06:07.480 --> 0:06:11.840
<v Speaker 2>particularly who had at that point in time had done nothing. However,

0:06:12.560 --> 0:06:15.920
<v Speaker 2>if coming off last year where he was the dominant

0:06:16.000 --> 0:06:19.240
<v Speaker 2>postseason force he was, and he had only had one

0:06:19.400 --> 0:06:22.240
<v Speaker 2>MVP to his name up to that point and Luca

0:06:22.279 --> 0:06:24.840
<v Speaker 2>already had one, then this year, I probably would have

0:06:24.920 --> 0:06:31.120
<v Speaker 2>vote voting voting voted for Joker. But here is what

0:06:31.160 --> 0:06:35.359
<v Speaker 2>I'm going to say about Joker and winning his third MVP. Okay,

0:06:37.800 --> 0:06:45.400
<v Speaker 2>the guys with two Giannis, Steph Duncan, Nash, Malone, Pettitt,

0:06:45.960 --> 0:06:49.239
<v Speaker 2>He's now ascended past them. He is in this group.

0:06:49.279 --> 0:06:54.160
<v Speaker 2>Here are the guys with three, Him, Magic, Larry, and Moses.

0:06:55.200 --> 0:06:57.599
<v Speaker 2>The guys with four Wilton Lebron, the guys with five

0:06:57.720 --> 0:07:02.480
<v Speaker 2>Russell and Michael, and the only guy with six. So

0:07:03.400 --> 0:07:06.880
<v Speaker 2>I'm okay with that. He right now is a very

0:07:06.880 --> 0:07:11.200
<v Speaker 2>similar career of Moses, by the way, three MVPs Moses

0:07:11.240 --> 0:07:16.840
<v Speaker 2>went to two finals, one to one championship. But we

0:07:16.960 --> 0:07:27.320
<v Speaker 2>must also then reevaluate as we get new information. We

0:07:27.640 --> 0:07:31.559
<v Speaker 2>are going to talk about Jalen Brunson in a moment.

0:07:32.360 --> 0:07:35.920
<v Speaker 2>If your feelings on Jalen Brunson are the same today

0:07:36.560 --> 0:07:42.160
<v Speaker 2>as they were a month ago, well then why even

0:07:42.200 --> 0:07:46.080
<v Speaker 2>have the games? If what he has done in this

0:07:46.280 --> 0:07:52.520
<v Speaker 2>postseason does not allow you to reevaluate and upgrade how

0:07:52.600 --> 0:07:55.920
<v Speaker 2>great of a player you think he is, then what

0:07:56.040 --> 0:08:01.360
<v Speaker 2>are the point of the games that works in both directions?

0:08:02.960 --> 0:08:07.440
<v Speaker 2>And if all of a sudden, when Joker for the

0:08:07.480 --> 0:08:14.960
<v Speaker 2>first time in a few years, is playing a fifty

0:08:15.040 --> 0:08:22.920
<v Speaker 2>plus win, well built, healthy team in the playoffs, is

0:08:22.960 --> 0:08:29.880
<v Speaker 2>struggling mightily. If that doesn't then allow you to reevaluate

0:08:30.640 --> 0:08:36.280
<v Speaker 2>certain assumptions we had about where he's ending in the pantheon,

0:08:36.760 --> 0:08:43.040
<v Speaker 2>then why have the games? Because going into this postseason,

0:08:44.240 --> 0:08:50.080
<v Speaker 2>the question with Joker was fairly and I was having it.

0:08:50.160 --> 0:08:53.800
<v Speaker 2>Is he going to run down Shack? Is he going

0:08:53.880 --> 0:08:59.319
<v Speaker 2>to end this postseason already ahead of a team? Could

0:08:59.360 --> 0:09:03.960
<v Speaker 2>he catch Bird though in the all time historical pantheon?

0:09:04.400 --> 0:09:08.520
<v Speaker 2>That's what and by the way, still is available to

0:09:08.720 --> 0:09:13.360
<v Speaker 2>him if they turn this around and win the championship.

0:09:15.400 --> 0:09:19.640
<v Speaker 2>But the flip side to that coin is if they

0:09:19.679 --> 0:09:22.760
<v Speaker 2>get rolled in round two by a twenty two year

0:09:22.760 --> 0:09:27.680
<v Speaker 2>old and by a guy who, previous to this moment

0:09:27.760 --> 0:09:34.559
<v Speaker 2>has always been considered a bad postseason performer, then we

0:09:34.679 --> 0:09:39.440
<v Speaker 2>must ask the question, did we anoint him ahead of

0:09:39.600 --> 0:09:41.720
<v Speaker 2>Yannis prematurely.

0:09:42.200 --> 0:09:44.079
<v Speaker 4>Put the resume side?

0:09:45.600 --> 0:09:45.840
<v Speaker 3>Well?

0:09:46.080 --> 0:09:50.640
<v Speaker 2>Right, Well, then then we recalibrate again, right, exactly right.

0:09:51.080 --> 0:09:55.719
<v Speaker 2>But we had the conversation around Jokic was head and

0:09:55.840 --> 0:10:01.080
<v Speaker 2>shoulders clear best player in the league. That is coming

0:10:01.120 --> 0:10:06.320
<v Speaker 2>into some question. I think because of what Ant and

0:10:06.440 --> 0:10:11.880
<v Speaker 2>Shay are doing to at least in question and the

0:10:12.360 --> 0:10:19.360
<v Speaker 2>guy of his era hands down. If you're Yannis, you're like, well,

0:10:21.520 --> 0:10:24.280
<v Speaker 2>if they get rolled this round, can we have the discussion?

0:10:25.559 --> 0:10:28.040
<v Speaker 2>He has three MVPs, now I have two. I have

0:10:28.080 --> 0:10:29.120
<v Speaker 2>a defensive.

0:10:28.679 --> 0:10:29.720
<v Speaker 3>Player of the Year award.

0:10:29.800 --> 0:10:34.560
<v Speaker 2>Though he has one legendary postseason run, I have one

0:10:34.679 --> 0:10:39.199
<v Speaker 2>legendary postseason run that arguably was not only as good,

0:10:39.440 --> 0:10:44.120
<v Speaker 2>but maybe better. Why are we sure he is the

0:10:44.240 --> 0:10:46.000
<v Speaker 2>alpha of this mini era?

0:10:46.440 --> 0:10:47.319
<v Speaker 3>That thing?

0:10:47.520 --> 0:10:53.440
<v Speaker 2>Those questions come into play, just like for Yannis when

0:10:53.440 --> 0:10:56.480
<v Speaker 2>he won his title with a fifty piece in Game

0:10:56.600 --> 0:11:00.240
<v Speaker 2>six and at that point had two MVPs, a into

0:11:00.320 --> 0:11:04.840
<v Speaker 2>Player of the Year and look totally unstoppable. The conversations

0:11:04.880 --> 0:11:08.520
<v Speaker 2>we were having were could this guy end up being

0:11:08.559 --> 0:11:10.760
<v Speaker 2>one of the five greatest players of all time?

0:11:12.720 --> 0:11:14.600
<v Speaker 3>But since then.

0:11:14.679 --> 0:11:17.200
<v Speaker 2>He hasn't been out of Round two and he has

0:11:17.280 --> 0:11:23.080
<v Speaker 2>back to back Round one exits, so you recalibrate, that

0:11:23.480 --> 0:11:27.640
<v Speaker 2>is why. And this is the Jokic folks that have

0:11:27.679 --> 0:11:31.800
<v Speaker 2>gotten mad at me in the past when they're like,

0:11:32.040 --> 0:11:34.880
<v Speaker 2>you know, killed me for saying I needed to see

0:11:34.920 --> 0:11:37.840
<v Speaker 2>him do it on a postseason run and acted like

0:11:37.960 --> 0:11:42.800
<v Speaker 2>that was an unfair standard. It's the standard. It's always

0:11:42.880 --> 0:11:48.240
<v Speaker 2>been the standard. And now again, if we are just

0:11:48.320 --> 0:11:56.280
<v Speaker 2>being historically fair, we then also let's just assume, not

0:11:56.360 --> 0:11:58.640
<v Speaker 2>even assume, let's just say for the sake of argument,

0:11:59.360 --> 0:12:05.240
<v Speaker 2>that minnesot Of sweeps them. Okay, we now have some

0:12:05.360 --> 0:12:12.959
<v Speaker 2>really uncomfortable lists. You would have fewest wins in a

0:12:13.080 --> 0:12:18.240
<v Speaker 2>playoffs in a season you won MVP. Here would be

0:12:18.320 --> 0:12:21.920
<v Speaker 2>the full list of guys who have four or less.

0:12:23.280 --> 0:12:30.320
<v Speaker 2>Michael Jordan once, Magic Johnson once, Tim Duncan wants, Dirk once,

0:12:31.440 --> 0:12:40.200
<v Speaker 2>Russell Westbrook once, Nikola Jokic three times. He already is

0:12:41.960 --> 0:12:45.560
<v Speaker 2>tied with Westbrook for fewest playoff wins in the season

0:12:45.600 --> 0:12:48.720
<v Speaker 2>you won an MVP with one.

0:12:48.880 --> 0:12:50.160
<v Speaker 3>Okay, I have another question.

0:12:50.920 --> 0:12:55.360
<v Speaker 2>The list of last forty years guy who got swept

0:12:55.400 --> 0:12:59.160
<v Speaker 2>out of the playoffs in the season he won league MVP.

0:12:59.760 --> 0:13:03.640
<v Speaker 2>That list right now is two names long, Magic Johnson,

0:13:04.280 --> 0:13:07.160
<v Speaker 2>and there's a semi asterisk on that little by his

0:13:07.280 --> 0:13:11.520
<v Speaker 2>name there. Because he got swept in the finals when

0:13:11.640 --> 0:13:16.520
<v Speaker 2>he got hurt five minutes into Game three and did

0:13:16.559 --> 0:13:19.040
<v Speaker 2>not play the rest of that game or the next game,

0:13:19.280 --> 0:13:22.280
<v Speaker 2>it still counts as him getting swept they were going

0:13:22.320 --> 0:13:25.080
<v Speaker 2>for a third straight title and the Pistons beat him,

0:13:25.120 --> 0:13:27.800
<v Speaker 2>swept him in the finals, but he got hurt. The

0:13:27.840 --> 0:13:32.280
<v Speaker 2>only other name on that list already is Joker's a

0:13:32.360 --> 0:13:36.040
<v Speaker 2>couple games away from that happening again, Does that mean

0:13:36.720 --> 0:13:43.640
<v Speaker 2>he's not neck and neck with Moses Malone for let

0:13:43.720 --> 0:13:47.120
<v Speaker 2>me do the greatest centers of all time? What's that list?

0:13:47.160 --> 0:13:52.760
<v Speaker 3>So for the am I leaving anyone out? Yeah? Uh?

0:13:53.080 --> 0:13:55.600
<v Speaker 2>Neck and neck with Moses Malone for the sixth greatest

0:13:55.600 --> 0:14:01.440
<v Speaker 2>center ever. No, he's already established that. But does that

0:14:01.600 --> 0:14:06.120
<v Speaker 2>set him back on cracking that top five greatest sinners ever?

0:14:07.280 --> 0:14:11.559
<v Speaker 2>Kareem Russell Wilt a team shack. Yeah, of course it does.

0:14:12.800 --> 0:14:12.839
<v Speaker 4>That.

0:14:13.720 --> 0:14:18.760
<v Speaker 2>These games matter in every direction. They turn Anthony Edwards

0:14:18.800 --> 0:14:21.320
<v Speaker 2>into maybe the face of the league. They make Jalen

0:14:21.360 --> 0:14:25.720
<v Speaker 2>Brunson a folk hero in a legend right. They make

0:14:25.840 --> 0:14:30.160
<v Speaker 2>you recalibrate what the hell you're going to do if

0:14:30.200 --> 0:14:35.320
<v Speaker 2>you're the Phoenix Suns. That's what this postseason is and

0:14:35.440 --> 0:14:40.120
<v Speaker 2>for Joker and I'm listen, i am not the.

0:14:42.600 --> 0:14:44.440
<v Speaker 3>A big thing that has.

0:14:44.360 --> 0:14:49.440
<v Speaker 2>Gone around this week on the internet is Wow, the

0:14:49.560 --> 0:14:52.480
<v Speaker 2>Nuggets with Joker have never beaten a.

0:14:52.400 --> 0:14:54.760
<v Speaker 3>Fifty win team in the playoffs.

0:14:56.080 --> 0:15:01.560
<v Speaker 2>I have not proliferated that because I actually don't am

0:15:01.600 --> 0:15:05.400
<v Speaker 2>not that interested in that because I watched them last

0:15:05.440 --> 0:15:08.560
<v Speaker 2>year and I think they were going to Like, he

0:15:08.680 --> 0:15:13.239
<v Speaker 2>shouldn't be penalized for the fact that Miami clipped Boston

0:15:13.680 --> 0:15:16.880
<v Speaker 2>in the conference finals and he didn't get an opportunity

0:15:16.960 --> 0:15:20.880
<v Speaker 2>to beat Boston because they would have rolled Boston. That

0:15:21.000 --> 0:15:25.720
<v Speaker 2>Nuggets team last year was a well oiled, healthy juggernaut,

0:15:26.560 --> 0:15:28.800
<v Speaker 2>and I give him full credit for that. So I'm

0:15:28.800 --> 0:15:32.800
<v Speaker 2>not I am not at all being like, oh, last

0:15:32.880 --> 0:15:34.320
<v Speaker 2>year's championship, what is it?

0:15:34.360 --> 0:15:36.920
<v Speaker 3>That's not how I feel.

0:15:37.480 --> 0:15:44.480
<v Speaker 2>I am saying it is not unfair to hold the

0:15:44.560 --> 0:15:49.640
<v Speaker 2>guy who just became one, two, three four, the ninth

0:15:49.800 --> 0:15:54.080
<v Speaker 2>player in league history to be named the MVP of

0:15:54.120 --> 0:15:59.560
<v Speaker 2>the league three or more times, to a high standard.

0:16:01.280 --> 0:16:04.360
<v Speaker 2>And that's what I'm going to hold him to. The

0:16:05.040 --> 0:16:08.480
<v Speaker 2>standard is the standard. It was not set by me.

0:16:08.920 --> 0:16:13.440
<v Speaker 2>It was set by history. And I just spent a

0:16:13.480 --> 0:16:18.040
<v Speaker 2>week hearing about how Lebron James missed box outs or

0:16:18.040 --> 0:16:22.760
<v Speaker 2>why Darvin Ham doesn't have a job. Because the standards

0:16:22.840 --> 0:16:26.400
<v Speaker 2>the standard for Lebron even in year twenty one, age

0:16:26.480 --> 0:16:31.720
<v Speaker 2>thirty nine, be better, find a way. Okay, peak of

0:16:31.760 --> 0:16:35.360
<v Speaker 2>your powers. Third MVP in four years. These kids in

0:16:35.400 --> 0:16:39.840
<v Speaker 2>Minnesota are making you look slow, are making you look

0:16:40.320 --> 0:16:40.640
<v Speaker 2>like you.

0:16:40.560 --> 0:16:41.440
<v Speaker 3>Don't have answers.

0:16:42.680 --> 0:16:48.440
<v Speaker 2>And so does that change how I feel about him historically?

0:16:50.440 --> 0:16:50.520
<v Speaker 3>No?

0:16:51.360 --> 0:16:54.400
<v Speaker 2>Does it pump the brakes on where he was being

0:16:54.440 --> 0:17:00.720
<v Speaker 2>elevated to historically? Of course it has to. And so

0:17:01.120 --> 0:17:04.000
<v Speaker 2>That's where I'm at on this. I don't think Demonse.

0:17:04.760 --> 0:17:06.359
<v Speaker 2>I know you think I'm a bit of a hater

0:17:06.480 --> 0:17:09.960
<v Speaker 2>on this. That's okay, tell like you just heard me

0:17:10.040 --> 0:17:14.240
<v Speaker 2>go for fifteen minutes, your thoughts on anything or everything

0:17:14.280 --> 0:17:14.760
<v Speaker 2>I just said.

0:17:14.840 --> 0:17:16.640
<v Speaker 4>I wonder how Daniel feels about this.

0:17:16.840 --> 0:17:21.040
<v Speaker 2>But Daniel, can I tell you real quick before you go,

0:17:21.280 --> 0:17:24.080
<v Speaker 2>Here's how I think Daniel feels. I don't think Daniel

0:17:24.280 --> 0:17:28.919
<v Speaker 2>actually right now, maybe I'm wrong, has the luxury of

0:17:29.040 --> 0:17:33.119
<v Speaker 2>caring about the Jokis historic debate. He's right now in

0:17:33.160 --> 0:17:35.679
<v Speaker 2>the midst of a war for what he thought was

0:17:35.720 --> 0:17:39.560
<v Speaker 2>going to be a dynastic run he through hell or

0:17:39.720 --> 0:17:44.359
<v Speaker 2>high water. Daniel just needs the Nuggets to find a

0:17:44.400 --> 0:17:48.520
<v Speaker 2>way to win tomorrow night, and they win tomorrow night,

0:17:48.720 --> 0:17:51.440
<v Speaker 2>and he is all the way back. Like but right

0:17:51.520 --> 0:17:56.120
<v Speaker 2>now he has massive unease about where we're at because

0:17:56.200 --> 0:17:58.160
<v Speaker 2>here and sorry, I asked your thoughts, and now I'm

0:17:58.160 --> 0:17:58.800
<v Speaker 2>gonna talk again.

0:17:58.840 --> 0:17:59.880
<v Speaker 3>But then I'll get your talk.

0:18:00.240 --> 0:18:06.000
<v Speaker 2>Because here's the other uncomfortable thing about if not if

0:18:06.000 --> 0:18:10.640
<v Speaker 2>they lose this series, but if Denver gets swept. If

0:18:10.720 --> 0:18:17.280
<v Speaker 2>Denver gets swept, do they make a knee jerk change.

0:18:17.560 --> 0:18:21.359
<v Speaker 2>Do they try to retool something or do they just

0:18:21.440 --> 0:18:23.879
<v Speaker 2>say next year will be different. I don't know what

0:18:23.920 --> 0:18:26.919
<v Speaker 2>the right answer would be, But there's a world that exists.

0:18:27.280 --> 0:18:30.679
<v Speaker 2>This is what is so again interesting about the playoffs.

0:18:31.200 --> 0:18:34.720
<v Speaker 2>The Lakers, I think for a few days were like, well,

0:18:34.760 --> 0:18:38.360
<v Speaker 2>I know we lost in five, but those games were close.

0:18:38.680 --> 0:18:41.199
<v Speaker 2>Two came down to buzzer beaters, and the Nuggets are

0:18:41.200 --> 0:18:44.160
<v Speaker 2>gonna win the whole thing, so you know, we might

0:18:44.240 --> 0:18:46.280
<v Speaker 2>end up beating Maybe we were the third best team

0:18:46.320 --> 0:18:49.240
<v Speaker 2>in the league, right, But then now the Nuggets are

0:18:49.400 --> 0:18:50.440
<v Speaker 2>getting annihilated.

0:18:51.080 --> 0:18:51.880
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, there's a.

0:18:51.800 --> 0:18:58.360
<v Speaker 3>World that exists where the Timberwolves sweep the Nuggets. The

0:18:58.400 --> 0:19:03.240
<v Speaker 3>Timberwolves then lose to the winner of OKC Dallas, and

0:19:03.280 --> 0:19:07.080
<v Speaker 3>that team then loses to Boston. And if you're Denver,

0:19:07.520 --> 0:19:10.560
<v Speaker 3>you're like, wait a minute, the team that beat US

0:19:10.640 --> 0:19:13.359
<v Speaker 3>got beat by a team that then got beat How

0:19:13.400 --> 0:19:15.800
<v Speaker 3>close were we that? Right?

0:19:15.920 --> 0:19:18.679
<v Speaker 2>Like, it's now if the Timberwolves beat the Nuggets in

0:19:18.840 --> 0:19:22.159
<v Speaker 2>six and then go on to win the championship, you

0:19:22.200 --> 0:19:25.800
<v Speaker 2>feel differently. That's where all of this stuff matters.

0:19:25.920 --> 0:19:28.080
<v Speaker 4>But god, that's how that's how I feel about it.

0:19:28.160 --> 0:19:31.000
<v Speaker 4>I think that I think the Timberwolves are gonna take

0:19:31.040 --> 0:19:33.320
<v Speaker 4>it pretty far. And I hate saying that because they're

0:19:33.320 --> 0:19:35.119
<v Speaker 4>gonna end up dealing with the Celtics. But I think

0:19:35.160 --> 0:19:37.280
<v Speaker 4>when you look back at it, it'll just be a

0:19:37.320 --> 0:19:40.000
<v Speaker 4>story of like this, this dominant Timberwolves team and not

0:19:40.119 --> 0:19:43.199
<v Speaker 4>the Denver choke job. I think that the Timberwolves are

0:19:43.200 --> 0:19:46.000
<v Speaker 4>just legit, and I think that if they keep that

0:19:46.080 --> 0:19:49.720
<v Speaker 4>team together even next year, I think you'll still see

0:19:49.760 --> 0:19:52.000
<v Speaker 4>that it's a very real team. I mean, they've been

0:19:52.000 --> 0:19:54.720
<v Speaker 4>doing everything basically without Rigo Bert. I get it was

0:19:54.760 --> 0:19:57.080
<v Speaker 4>only it's only been two games, but but yeah, dude,

0:19:57.080 --> 0:19:58.720
<v Speaker 4>I think that I think the team's just scary. It's

0:19:58.720 --> 0:19:59.439
<v Speaker 4>a different beast.

0:20:00.520 --> 0:20:03.880
<v Speaker 2>Well, so here is So here's another thing I love

0:20:03.880 --> 0:20:06.920
<v Speaker 2>about the NBA playoffs. No, I'm not saying anything you're

0:20:06.960 --> 0:20:10.520
<v Speaker 2>saying is wrong, but the NBA playoffs the way it

0:20:10.640 --> 0:20:14.719
<v Speaker 2>works is when your team, or when a team wins

0:20:14.760 --> 0:20:18.159
<v Speaker 2>a single game, let alone what Minnesota's done where they

0:20:18.160 --> 0:20:22.840
<v Speaker 2>haven't lost yet, you feel after the game like, I

0:20:22.840 --> 0:20:26.639
<v Speaker 2>don't think they're ever gonna lose again. I not just

0:20:26.680 --> 0:20:29.600
<v Speaker 2>this year but next year either, like why could.

0:20:29.400 --> 0:20:30.200
<v Speaker 3>Anyone beat them?

0:20:30.480 --> 0:20:34.639
<v Speaker 2>And then right and then whenever your team loses a game,

0:20:35.240 --> 0:20:38.800
<v Speaker 2>you're like, I mean this team is just broken, like

0:20:38.880 --> 0:20:41.080
<v Speaker 2>I don't know what and so it's a it, but

0:20:41.640 --> 0:20:41.840
<v Speaker 2>just the.

0:20:42.160 --> 0:20:44.800
<v Speaker 4>Fashion in which they've done this, I mean it's it's

0:20:44.840 --> 0:20:47.879
<v Speaker 4>two games and the second game was worse than the

0:20:47.920 --> 0:20:51.320
<v Speaker 4>first one. They're in Denver, they haven't lost yet.

0:20:51.440 --> 0:20:56.400
<v Speaker 3>Out go bear no correct all that's all.

0:20:56.480 --> 0:20:58.520
<v Speaker 2>That's very fair, all right? Do you want to well,

0:20:58.720 --> 0:21:00.520
<v Speaker 2>just real quick, do you think anything said about the

0:21:00.560 --> 0:21:02.719
<v Speaker 2>Jokic is there anything else you want to talk about it?

0:21:02.720 --> 0:21:04.680
<v Speaker 2>That was unfair for you to move on to Jalen Brunson.

0:21:07.000 --> 0:21:07.720
<v Speaker 3>I do.

0:21:07.960 --> 0:21:11.440
<v Speaker 4>I do think you're slightly unfair to Jokic. I mean,

0:21:12.000 --> 0:21:14.800
<v Speaker 4>especially if you was given the fact that the guys

0:21:14.800 --> 0:21:17.000
<v Speaker 4>that you said should have gotten MVP over him the

0:21:17.080 --> 0:21:19.960
<v Speaker 4>years that they did, Jokic went further than them. If

0:21:20.000 --> 0:21:25.679
<v Speaker 4>I'm not mistaken, no, you are mistaken. No, you are mistaken, Okay,

0:21:26.000 --> 0:21:27.320
<v Speaker 4>which he wanted.

0:21:27.840 --> 0:21:30.640
<v Speaker 2>The first year he won MVP, I was the only

0:21:30.680 --> 0:21:32.840
<v Speaker 2>person in America who said it should have been Chris Paul.

0:21:33.560 --> 0:21:36.879
<v Speaker 2>They then played Chris Paul in round two and Chris

0:21:36.920 --> 0:21:40.199
<v Speaker 2>Paul swept them in the playoffs. Okay, that was the

0:21:40.240 --> 0:21:44.600
<v Speaker 2>first year. The second year that he won MVP, and

0:21:44.680 --> 0:21:47.600
<v Speaker 2>I said Luca should have won it. Luca went to

0:21:47.640 --> 0:21:52.560
<v Speaker 2>the conference finals and Joker lost five in round one. Now,

0:21:52.600 --> 0:21:54.920
<v Speaker 2>in fairness, the team that beat Joker was Golden State,

0:21:54.960 --> 0:21:57.919
<v Speaker 2>the same team that beat Luca last year. So no,

0:21:58.080 --> 0:22:00.960
<v Speaker 2>so that is not accurate about those years. Like I

0:22:01.200 --> 0:22:05.760
<v Speaker 2>just the it was now you vote before the playoffs.

0:22:05.800 --> 0:22:08.160
<v Speaker 2>I understand all of that, but go ahead.

0:22:09.720 --> 0:22:12.160
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, all right, I guess that's fair. Well, I think

0:22:12.200 --> 0:22:14.159
<v Speaker 4>we'll see. We'll see how it pans out with the

0:22:14.200 --> 0:22:16.960
<v Speaker 4>Timberwolves and and and Lay in the playoffs.

0:22:18.200 --> 0:22:22.960
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I mean, I mean, I I think that right

0:22:23.040 --> 0:22:28.040
<v Speaker 2>now they look unbelievable. And right now you also ask

0:22:28.119 --> 0:22:34.200
<v Speaker 2>yourself how different would last season's postseason have been had

0:22:34.320 --> 0:22:37.800
<v Speaker 2>Minnesota not been without Jaden McDaniels Because he punched a

0:22:37.840 --> 0:22:41.159
<v Speaker 2>wall and broke his hand right before the playoffs and

0:22:41.240 --> 0:22:44.720
<v Speaker 2>without nas reed because he was hurt. Like Jade McDaniels

0:22:44.720 --> 0:22:46.800
<v Speaker 2>and nos reed right now, critical.

0:22:46.359 --> 0:22:50.440
<v Speaker 4>Piece, huge players, huge pieces for them now.

0:22:50.480 --> 0:22:53.520
<v Speaker 2>Also, Anthony Edwards is better than he was. There's a

0:22:53.520 --> 0:22:56.240
<v Speaker 2>lot of other factors, but yeah, okay, all right, let's

0:22:56.240 --> 0:22:57.400
<v Speaker 2>move on to Jalen Brunson.

0:22:58.320 --> 0:23:00.920
<v Speaker 4>Uh. Yes, So the Knicks came back, came back from

0:23:00.960 --> 0:23:05.119
<v Speaker 4>a down ten despite Brunson and Ogianinovi getting hurt. Jen

0:23:05.560 --> 0:23:07.960
<v Speaker 4>Jalen hurt, not Jalen hurts. Jalen brunts was able to

0:23:08.000 --> 0:23:10.119
<v Speaker 4>come back later, but he still doesn't look one hundred percent.

0:23:10.600 --> 0:23:13.240
<v Speaker 4>But that foot injury, it seems like the workload would

0:23:13.240 --> 0:23:15.040
<v Speaker 4>be getting to them at this point. Have you ever

0:23:15.119 --> 0:23:17.359
<v Speaker 4>seen have you ever seen a team with as much heart?

0:23:17.560 --> 0:23:19.840
<v Speaker 3>Sorry, no, you're fine.

0:23:20.040 --> 0:23:23.199
<v Speaker 2>Uh, I mean it's almost impossible not to root for

0:23:23.200 --> 0:23:25.080
<v Speaker 2>the Knicks in my opinion if you're neutral.

0:23:25.680 --> 0:23:27.160
<v Speaker 3>Just the way they play.

0:23:27.160 --> 0:23:31.560
<v Speaker 2>The Villanova piece is amazing. Brunson at his size, doing

0:23:31.600 --> 0:23:34.639
<v Speaker 2>what he's doing, which is why now allow me to

0:23:34.680 --> 0:23:40.320
<v Speaker 2>complain for a moment. I've never been more infuriated watching

0:23:40.400 --> 0:23:42.600
<v Speaker 2>a broadcast than I was watching last night.

0:23:43.119 --> 0:23:45.760
<v Speaker 3>Okay, I get that.

0:23:45.840 --> 0:23:49.200
<v Speaker 2>Reggie Miller came back to New York and we have

0:23:49.280 --> 0:23:54.160
<v Speaker 2>to still just make a big deal about I'm sorry,

0:23:54.560 --> 0:24:00.359
<v Speaker 2>but one of the most historically overrated players of any era,

0:24:00.960 --> 0:24:05.040
<v Speaker 2>like Reggie, was a very good player who had some

0:24:05.200 --> 0:24:09.919
<v Speaker 2>great moments. He also Latrell Spreewell was there. He and

0:24:10.000 --> 0:24:13.639
<v Speaker 2>Spree played the same position in the same era. Spree

0:24:13.680 --> 0:24:17.840
<v Speaker 2>actually made a first or second team All NBA. Reggie

0:24:17.920 --> 0:24:20.960
<v Speaker 2>his whole career never did. And we're treating Reggie Miller

0:24:21.000 --> 0:24:24.320
<v Speaker 2>like this golden God. Fine, so be it. You look

0:24:24.359 --> 0:24:26.440
<v Speaker 2>up the numbers. It's like he was really good and

0:24:26.600 --> 0:24:28.640
<v Speaker 2>it was a clutch shooter and had some nice moments.

0:24:28.800 --> 0:24:32.359
<v Speaker 3>He was also eighteen three and three for his career,

0:24:32.600 --> 0:24:34.240
<v Speaker 3>so he can pump the brakes on a little of

0:24:34.280 --> 0:24:37.560
<v Speaker 3>the hey giography on him. But set that aside. And

0:24:37.600 --> 0:24:41.160
<v Speaker 3>I never pronounced that word properly. Uh, But.

0:24:42.680 --> 0:24:48.800
<v Speaker 2>Whatever said, whatever your plan on making this broadcast about

0:24:49.000 --> 0:24:52.760
<v Speaker 2>Reggie and Spike and the Knicks in the Garden has

0:24:52.840 --> 0:24:57.760
<v Speaker 2>to go out the window. When Jalen Brunson goes out

0:24:58.040 --> 0:25:01.520
<v Speaker 2>with a mysterious injury for a quarter and a half

0:25:01.840 --> 0:25:07.600
<v Speaker 2>and no one knows anything. I there was no updates.

0:25:07.880 --> 0:25:11.840
<v Speaker 2>They couldn't they weren't. They made no effort, it seemed,

0:25:12.200 --> 0:25:15.440
<v Speaker 2>to find the video of when the injury happened. They

0:25:15.560 --> 0:25:18.080
<v Speaker 2>just kept showing us the video of when they thought

0:25:18.160 --> 0:25:19.200
<v Speaker 2>the injury happened.

0:25:19.400 --> 0:25:20.320
<v Speaker 3>But it didn't.

0:25:20.680 --> 0:25:24.320
<v Speaker 2>He got hit in the groin on a play and

0:25:24.359 --> 0:25:28.480
<v Speaker 2>then played another four or five plays, then asked out

0:25:28.520 --> 0:25:31.920
<v Speaker 2>and then was gone and we got nothing on it.

0:25:32.119 --> 0:25:35.480
<v Speaker 2>Then later in the game, Og and Nanobi is on

0:25:35.520 --> 0:25:39.440
<v Speaker 2>a fast break, comes up, lame throws, the ball up

0:25:39.760 --> 0:25:43.240
<v Speaker 2>falls out of bounds. They don't acknowledge that that has

0:25:43.320 --> 0:25:47.200
<v Speaker 2>happened for two possessions. The Knicks are playing five on four.

0:25:47.520 --> 0:25:53.200
<v Speaker 2>They haven't said anything, and then they immediately diagnose Og. Oh,

0:25:53.240 --> 0:25:57.480
<v Speaker 2>it's just cramps. He'll be fine, Na Bro, he heard

0:25:57.520 --> 0:26:00.320
<v Speaker 2>his hamstring. Og might be done for the playoff. I

0:26:00.359 --> 0:26:02.879
<v Speaker 2>have no idea, but hamstrings are tricky. I have no

0:26:02.960 --> 0:26:04.120
<v Speaker 2>inside information there.

0:26:04.160 --> 0:26:07.479
<v Speaker 3>But it wasn't cramps, Like, what are we doing?

0:26:09.000 --> 0:26:12.560
<v Speaker 2>Jalen brunts in Then after a foot injury that to

0:26:12.720 --> 0:26:15.520
<v Speaker 2>this moment, we got no.

0:26:17.520 --> 0:26:19.520
<v Speaker 3>Like, Oh, here's where it could have happened.

0:26:19.880 --> 0:26:24.840
<v Speaker 2>All you have is time scour every every piece of

0:26:24.880 --> 0:26:28.720
<v Speaker 2>footage you have of jailing from the beginning of the

0:26:28.760 --> 0:26:32.200
<v Speaker 2>game to the three minute mark of the first quarter

0:26:32.480 --> 0:26:36.000
<v Speaker 2>when he went out and see when he reacted to

0:26:36.040 --> 0:26:40.199
<v Speaker 2>something with his foot, like, what are we doing? So

0:26:40.320 --> 0:26:45.639
<v Speaker 2>that was maddening, maddening from a viewer perspective. Now to

0:26:45.880 --> 0:26:52.840
<v Speaker 2>Jalen I, he would have had another forty What did

0:26:52.840 --> 0:26:55.199
<v Speaker 2>he end with? How many points did he end with?

0:26:55.240 --> 0:27:00.480
<v Speaker 2>Thirty two? The it might be, it might have been

0:27:00.560 --> 0:27:02.760
<v Speaker 2>twenty eight, might be thirty two. I'm gonna I'll pull

0:27:02.760 --> 0:27:07.720
<v Speaker 2>it up right now. Okay, neither twenty nine twenty nine,

0:27:07.720 --> 0:27:10.520
<v Speaker 2>but in thirty two minutes, because he so he usually

0:27:10.600 --> 0:27:14.680
<v Speaker 2>plays forty five, he had twenty nine to eighteen shots

0:27:16.480 --> 0:27:22.399
<v Speaker 2>made every key three and those three Villanova guys. Man

0:27:23.080 --> 0:27:31.439
<v Speaker 2>Heart is just an unbelievable winning player, just a total winner.

0:27:31.640 --> 0:27:32.320
<v Speaker 3>Can I demand?

0:27:32.400 --> 0:27:36.439
<v Speaker 2>I'm gonna make Demonte laugh here because obviously the skill,

0:27:36.560 --> 0:27:39.600
<v Speaker 2>the size, all this stuff is.

0:27:39.000 --> 0:27:41.560
<v Speaker 3>Not on the part. But you know, Josh Hart reminds

0:27:41.600 --> 0:27:41.920
<v Speaker 3>me of.

0:27:43.560 --> 0:27:48.760
<v Speaker 2>Angs, Yes, exactly right, Like I don't know how you

0:27:48.800 --> 0:27:52.960
<v Speaker 2>do it, but you're just Angus was a guy, a

0:27:53.000 --> 0:27:55.959
<v Speaker 2>wonderful young man that Demonse played high school basketball with.

0:27:56.520 --> 0:28:01.040
<v Speaker 2>But Angus was not that tall, was not that like skilled,

0:28:01.720 --> 0:28:08.720
<v Speaker 2>but just outworked everybody on every possession and what's just

0:28:08.760 --> 0:28:13.560
<v Speaker 2>a winner, you know, strong and tough, never complained in

0:28:13.600 --> 0:28:14.520
<v Speaker 2>a winner.

0:28:15.000 --> 0:28:19.440
<v Speaker 4>And he he hasn't are he hasn't seen the bench

0:28:19.480 --> 0:28:22.399
<v Speaker 4>since his Villanova days. Do you think that he's killing

0:28:22.440 --> 0:28:24.080
<v Speaker 4>the whole load management debate?

0:28:25.200 --> 0:28:28.520
<v Speaker 2>Well, so here's the thing I know that there is.

0:28:28.680 --> 0:28:32.160
<v Speaker 2>Folks are like, wow, you know Tibbs really putting load

0:28:32.200 --> 0:28:35.960
<v Speaker 2>management to shame? Yes and no, because he also now

0:28:36.000 --> 0:28:41.840
<v Speaker 2>has had five guys get hurt. So Randall is out

0:28:41.920 --> 0:28:47.040
<v Speaker 2>and has been out, Bogdanovich got injured during the playoffs,

0:28:47.560 --> 0:28:53.280
<v Speaker 2>Mitchell Robinson has a stress fracture. He's out og as

0:28:53.320 --> 0:28:57.120
<v Speaker 2>a hamstring we'll see on him. And Jalen Brunson's got

0:28:57.160 --> 0:29:00.640
<v Speaker 2>a mysterious foot thing. So I don't know actually that

0:29:00.680 --> 0:29:04.280
<v Speaker 2>he's killing the load management thing because his players do

0:29:04.480 --> 0:29:11.720
<v Speaker 2>are unfortunately dropping. But I the and the Pacers complaining

0:29:11.760 --> 0:29:15.400
<v Speaker 2>after the game they sent to the league go ahead.

0:29:16.360 --> 0:29:18.560
<v Speaker 4>No, I just think if you're the Pacers in your

0:29:18.960 --> 0:29:22.120
<v Speaker 4>at this point in the postseason, I don't. I mean,

0:29:22.160 --> 0:29:24.520
<v Speaker 4>they're not here often. I just think that you'd want

0:29:24.520 --> 0:29:26.160
<v Speaker 4>to be able to say at the end of everything

0:29:26.240 --> 0:29:29.760
<v Speaker 4>that you did everything in your power to advance and

0:29:29.920 --> 0:29:32.400
<v Speaker 4>like complaining to the refs when you're at this stage,

0:29:32.720 --> 0:29:35.480
<v Speaker 4>when you're not here often, I just think is a waste.

0:29:35.760 --> 0:29:40.120
<v Speaker 2>And also sending seventy nine plays that you think they

0:29:40.160 --> 0:29:42.320
<v Speaker 2>got wrong in the first two games. Shut up, that's

0:29:42.320 --> 0:29:46.800
<v Speaker 2>too many the and it's just too seventy nine.

0:29:47.320 --> 0:29:51.760
<v Speaker 3>I mean, what are you doing? I mean, what are

0:29:51.760 --> 0:29:52.560
<v Speaker 3>we talking about?

0:29:53.360 --> 0:29:59.000
<v Speaker 2>Also Carlisle doing the small market blues when Okacs undefeated.

0:29:59.320 --> 0:30:05.120
<v Speaker 2>Minneapolis isn't exactly you know, Los Angeles they're undefeated. Denver

0:30:05.320 --> 0:30:09.360
<v Speaker 2>is medium sized market. They won the championship, like miss me.

0:30:09.480 --> 0:30:13.560
<v Speaker 2>With that, I think it's impossible to analyze this series

0:30:13.640 --> 0:30:17.800
<v Speaker 2>moving forward until we know more about OG and Jalen's injuries.

0:30:18.240 --> 0:30:20.360
<v Speaker 2>But I do not think it is impossible to say this.

0:30:20.680 --> 0:30:23.400
<v Speaker 2>Jalen Brunson has been the best player in this postseason.

0:30:23.760 --> 0:30:27.400
<v Speaker 2>With respect to Anthony Edwards, he has been the best

0:30:27.440 --> 0:30:32.560
<v Speaker 2>player in this postseason with the heaviest load, and he is,

0:30:32.800 --> 0:30:36.200
<v Speaker 2>to me now a minted superstar.

0:30:37.600 --> 0:30:38.680
<v Speaker 3>What I I'll give you.

0:30:38.680 --> 0:30:41.480
<v Speaker 2>We can go back and forth on names, but I

0:30:41.480 --> 0:30:44.320
<v Speaker 2>would rather have Jalen Brunson than Devin Booker. I would

0:30:44.400 --> 0:30:47.280
<v Speaker 2>rather have Jalen Brunson than Donovan Mitchell. I would rather

0:30:47.360 --> 0:30:51.880
<v Speaker 2>have Jalen Brunson right now than Jimmy Butler. I would

0:30:52.000 --> 0:30:56.280
<v Speaker 2>rather have Jalen Brunson than Damian Lillard. I would I

0:30:56.440 --> 0:31:02.000
<v Speaker 2>just that is what this regular season and then postseason

0:31:02.040 --> 0:31:06.520
<v Speaker 2>has done, in my opinion for his standing. All right, Demonse,

0:31:06.680 --> 0:31:07.200
<v Speaker 2>let's move on.

0:31:08.640 --> 0:31:11.480
<v Speaker 4>All right, So demonte Bird lookalike Byron Scott went on

0:31:11.600 --> 0:31:15.000
<v Speaker 4>Undisputed and took a shot at Lebron yesterday. So we're

0:31:15.000 --> 0:31:16.400
<v Speaker 4>gonna take a look at what he said. For those

0:31:16.440 --> 0:31:18.520
<v Speaker 4>watching on YouTube, he.

0:31:18.520 --> 0:31:21.320
<v Speaker 3>Said, Yeah, I got it. Make Lebron the coach.

0:31:21.360 --> 0:31:23.160
<v Speaker 2>It's obvious to me, at least the He's making a

0:31:23.160 --> 0:31:25.400
<v Speaker 2>lot of decisions that are going on in this organization,

0:31:25.800 --> 0:31:29.000
<v Speaker 2>from a coaching standpoint to a player standpoint. So if

0:31:29.000 --> 0:31:31.120
<v Speaker 2>you're gonna allow him make those decisions, sit on the

0:31:31.120 --> 0:31:34.200
<v Speaker 2>bench and make those decisions as well, beat the head coach.

0:31:34.800 --> 0:31:38.880
<v Speaker 4>Go ahead. Yeah. So, in his saltiness, do you think

0:31:38.880 --> 0:31:41.080
<v Speaker 4>he actually provided the Lakers with their answer?

0:31:42.520 --> 0:31:45.960
<v Speaker 2>Okay, So here's the only thing I'm gonna ask. If

0:31:46.040 --> 0:31:49.640
<v Speaker 2>Lebron's always been the coach and the GM for the Lakers,

0:31:50.120 --> 0:31:52.400
<v Speaker 2>then I guess he does have six rings, just like

0:31:52.480 --> 0:31:56.600
<v Speaker 2>Michael because he gets one for playing and winning the championship,

0:31:56.680 --> 0:31:58.720
<v Speaker 2>one for building the team, and one for being the

0:31:58.800 --> 0:32:03.320
<v Speaker 2>head coach. This if Lebron's making all the decisions, then

0:32:03.400 --> 0:32:06.040
<v Speaker 2>Kyrie Irving would be a Laker and Tyler would be.

0:32:06.000 --> 0:32:06.600
<v Speaker 3>The head coach.

0:32:06.960 --> 0:32:10.520
<v Speaker 2>So again, I know folks love to do this math

0:32:10.600 --> 0:32:15.040
<v Speaker 2>of the things that work out for the Lakers. The

0:32:15.160 --> 0:32:18.600
<v Speaker 2>Lakers did and the things that don't, like the Westbrook

0:32:18.640 --> 0:32:23.720
<v Speaker 2>trade Lebron did, and when they that Lebron somehow has

0:32:23.880 --> 0:32:28.680
<v Speaker 2>firing power of coaches but not hiring power. All of

0:32:28.720 --> 0:32:38.160
<v Speaker 2>this self serving nonsense is fine. Uh do I think Lebron.

0:32:39.760 --> 0:32:42.600
<v Speaker 3>Here? Do I think he's going to be player coach? No?

0:32:43.000 --> 0:32:45.080
<v Speaker 3>Do I think that would have worked over the course

0:32:45.120 --> 0:32:45.719
<v Speaker 3>of a season.

0:32:46.160 --> 0:32:46.360
<v Speaker 4>No?

0:32:46.840 --> 0:32:53.560
<v Speaker 2>Do I think unequivocally that if Lebron were a player

0:32:53.680 --> 0:32:57.760
<v Speaker 2>coach for that Nugget series that the Lakers would have

0:32:57.800 --> 0:32:58.480
<v Speaker 2>fared better.

0:32:58.720 --> 0:33:00.040
<v Speaker 3>I do.

0:32:59.880 --> 0:33:03.920
<v Speaker 2>Do I think Lebron is better, would be a better

0:33:04.000 --> 0:33:07.560
<v Speaker 2>player coach, was an actual coach?

0:33:08.440 --> 0:33:12.200
<v Speaker 4>Yes? Go ahead? Could you walking back? You said if

0:33:12.320 --> 0:33:16.000
<v Speaker 4>Lebron were the player coach and the Denver series it

0:33:16.000 --> 0:33:16.840
<v Speaker 4>would have went better?

0:33:17.200 --> 0:33:21.000
<v Speaker 2>As what you said, Yeah, I mean, if Lebron were

0:33:21.040 --> 0:33:23.960
<v Speaker 2>the player coach in the Denver series. I think that

0:33:24.720 --> 0:33:29.360
<v Speaker 2>when the multiple times in the third quarters when Denver

0:33:29.560 --> 0:33:33.720
<v Speaker 2>is going on their game changing runs, Lebron would have

0:33:33.720 --> 0:33:36.880
<v Speaker 2>called a timeout. I do think that. I don't think

0:33:36.920 --> 0:33:40.200
<v Speaker 2>against Denver Lebron would have trotted out the three guard

0:33:40.280 --> 0:33:44.760
<v Speaker 2>lineup that Darvin was obsessed with all year that never worked.

0:33:44.800 --> 0:33:45.360
<v Speaker 3>I do think that.

0:33:45.440 --> 0:33:47.480
<v Speaker 2>Now, do I think it? What are in between them

0:33:47.480 --> 0:33:50.560
<v Speaker 2>winning and losing the series? I? Probably not? But do

0:33:50.640 --> 0:33:52.760
<v Speaker 2>I think they would have been better coached in that

0:33:53.040 --> 0:33:55.680
<v Speaker 2>series with Lebron as the player coach?

0:33:55.800 --> 0:33:58.280
<v Speaker 3>Yes? Do I think he could do it? Anyone could

0:33:58.320 --> 0:34:00.479
<v Speaker 3>do it over the course of a year. No, I

0:34:00.640 --> 0:34:01.040
<v Speaker 3>think the.

0:34:01.040 --> 0:34:04.520
<v Speaker 2>Leagues two different Bill Russell did it. I understand different league,

0:34:04.560 --> 0:34:09.480
<v Speaker 2>different film study, different responsibilities, all of that. All right, Uh,

0:34:09.840 --> 0:34:11.480
<v Speaker 2>let's go on to the MAVs thunder.

0:34:13.560 --> 0:34:15.680
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, your lard Slovenian son looks like he needs to

0:34:15.680 --> 0:34:18.600
<v Speaker 4>stay off the SIGs and hookah. Two questions for you,

0:34:19.680 --> 0:34:22.320
<v Speaker 4>is Luca abound to have a bounce back game? I

0:34:22.400 --> 0:34:24.080
<v Speaker 4>kind of feeling to know what your great answer is

0:34:24.120 --> 0:34:26.880
<v Speaker 4>to that one? And of the MAVs screwed if he doesn't.

0:34:27.960 --> 0:34:31.880
<v Speaker 2>Yes, and yes, I do think he'll bounce back. And

0:34:31.960 --> 0:34:35.360
<v Speaker 2>I also think they their only path is He's gotta

0:34:35.440 --> 0:34:38.760
<v Speaker 2>be vintage playoff Luca go ahead to Monsey.

0:34:38.960 --> 0:34:41.760
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, I think I don't think that for the Mavericks

0:34:41.760 --> 0:34:43.920
<v Speaker 4>to be successful. I think what is a Kyrie and

0:34:44.000 --> 0:34:46.759
<v Speaker 4>Luca had to combine like thirty nine. I don't think

0:34:46.800 --> 0:34:48.240
<v Speaker 4>that type. I don't think that can happen.

0:34:48.840 --> 0:34:52.919
<v Speaker 2>No, it has to be closer to seven seventy honestly, Yeah,

0:34:53.080 --> 0:34:53.680
<v Speaker 2>for real.

0:34:53.640 --> 0:34:55.520
<v Speaker 3>Like this is that.

0:34:57.480 --> 0:35:00.560
<v Speaker 2>Luca's Kyrie's gotta get is gonna give you twenty five

0:35:00.600 --> 0:35:03.800
<v Speaker 2>to thirty and Luca's got to give you thirty plus

0:35:04.440 --> 0:35:09.120
<v Speaker 2>with double digit assists and good Rebound's the only way

0:35:09.160 --> 0:35:11.960
<v Speaker 2>they don't have a good enough and Luca, by the way,

0:35:12.000 --> 0:35:15.120
<v Speaker 2>Game one was maybe the worst playoff game of his career.

0:35:15.480 --> 0:35:19.480
<v Speaker 2>It was the second fewest points the I think third,

0:35:19.600 --> 0:35:24.399
<v Speaker 2>it was one of his third worst shooting percentage, fewest threes.

0:35:24.040 --> 0:35:24.680
<v Speaker 3>He's ever made.

0:35:24.680 --> 0:35:27.319
<v Speaker 2>It was terrible, Like it wasn't just like bad by

0:35:27.360 --> 0:35:28.959
<v Speaker 2>Lucas standards, he was actually bad.

0:35:29.880 --> 0:35:31.440
<v Speaker 3>Uh, And so.

0:35:33.000 --> 0:35:39.719
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, they the the through line for this MAVs team

0:35:40.239 --> 0:35:45.880
<v Speaker 2>is Luca's gotta be lebron with the Caps. Kyrie's there,

0:35:46.000 --> 0:35:50.640
<v Speaker 2>Kyrie's gotta be Kyrie, and Luca's gotta be controlling everything

0:35:50.760 --> 0:35:52.880
<v Speaker 2>and then hitting open three point shooters, and they got

0:35:53.000 --> 0:35:55.360
<v Speaker 2>to hit the shots. Now, I believe in Luca, and

0:35:55.440 --> 0:35:58.000
<v Speaker 2>I'm not gonna do what people want to do for

0:35:58.120 --> 0:36:02.680
<v Speaker 2>Jamal Murray, which is Jamal Murray. When he's brilliant in

0:36:02.800 --> 0:36:05.759
<v Speaker 2>Game five against the Lakers, he's brilliant. And when he's

0:36:05.840 --> 0:36:08.160
<v Speaker 2>bad in Game one and two against the Thunder or

0:36:08.160 --> 0:36:10.839
<v Speaker 2>against the Tea Wolves, he's hurt. I've been down that

0:36:11.000 --> 0:36:13.800
<v Speaker 2>road in twenty sixteen with Steph Curry, and it was

0:36:15.080 --> 0:36:18.799
<v Speaker 2>one of the most annoying storylines I'd ever seen. In

0:36:18.880 --> 0:36:24.759
<v Speaker 2>twenty sixteen, Steph did get dinged and missed time, and

0:36:24.800 --> 0:36:29.320
<v Speaker 2>then he came back and in his first game back

0:36:29.440 --> 0:36:35.080
<v Speaker 2>in the playoffs, he had forty points, including a record

0:36:35.120 --> 0:36:40.440
<v Speaker 2>that stands to this day, seventeen points in overtime and

0:36:40.640 --> 0:36:46.320
<v Speaker 2>literally screamed, I'm back. And then the very next game

0:36:46.960 --> 0:36:51.320
<v Speaker 2>was awesome. And then the beginning of the series against OKC,

0:36:52.360 --> 0:36:57.400
<v Speaker 2>he really struggled and everyone's like, oh, Steph's hurt. You can't, guys, guys,

0:36:57.400 --> 0:36:59.520
<v Speaker 2>we all know he's hurt. And then in Game seven

0:36:59.560 --> 0:37:02.600
<v Speaker 2>against Okay, see was brilliant. They're like, oh, Steph's back,

0:37:02.960 --> 0:37:05.440
<v Speaker 2>he's great. And then in the beginning of the finals

0:37:05.480 --> 0:37:08.600
<v Speaker 2>against the Calves, Steph was or the game four, the

0:37:08.640 --> 0:37:10.680
<v Speaker 2>big game to go up three one against the Calves,

0:37:10.840 --> 0:37:14.360
<v Speaker 2>he was great. We were like, man, Steph Curry's back.

0:37:14.600 --> 0:37:17.320
<v Speaker 2>And then the final three games against the Calves, he's struggling,

0:37:17.320 --> 0:37:17.520
<v Speaker 2>and I.

0:37:17.560 --> 0:37:18.520
<v Speaker 3>Was like, oh, he's hurt.

0:37:19.080 --> 0:37:21.680
<v Speaker 2>You can't do that. We can't do though. When he's great,

0:37:21.719 --> 0:37:24.399
<v Speaker 2>he's great, and when he's not he's hurt. Is Luca

0:37:24.400 --> 0:37:27.920
<v Speaker 2>one hundred percent? Probably not, But Luca was kicked ass

0:37:27.920 --> 0:37:30.879
<v Speaker 2>in Game six against the Clippers. So I'm not gonna

0:37:30.880 --> 0:37:32.640
<v Speaker 2>sit here and be like, oh, but now he's not

0:37:32.680 --> 0:37:34.040
<v Speaker 2>playing well, it's because he's hurt.

0:37:34.800 --> 0:37:36.120
<v Speaker 3>And people are trying to do the same thing with

0:37:36.200 --> 0:37:37.520
<v Speaker 3>Jamal Murray. I don't like it.

0:37:38.239 --> 0:37:43.600
<v Speaker 2>Uh, Luca's gotta be better. If he's not awesome, they

0:37:43.719 --> 0:37:47.680
<v Speaker 2>can't win. If he is awesome, they can. I think

0:37:47.719 --> 0:37:50.879
<v Speaker 2>he'll be awesome. Quick break right back, what's right?

0:37:56.560 --> 0:37:59.120
<v Speaker 3>All right? Welcome back in what's right? With Nick? Right

0:37:59.239 --> 0:38:03.920
<v Speaker 3>real quick? I'm just seeing on my timeline Jadon Daniels

0:38:04.640 --> 0:38:09.000
<v Speaker 3>and Malik neighbors the LSU quarterback and wide receiver who

0:38:09.000 --> 0:38:14.600
<v Speaker 3>are now Washington's quarterback and the Giants wide receiver. We're

0:38:14.600 --> 0:38:19.960
<v Speaker 3>on Keyshawn's pod and all facts. No breaks is what

0:38:20.000 --> 0:38:20.439
<v Speaker 3>it's called.

0:38:21.680 --> 0:38:24.600
<v Speaker 2>And we just put out the clip of them saying

0:38:25.440 --> 0:38:28.279
<v Speaker 2>they have a ten thousand dollars bet between them on

0:38:28.360 --> 0:38:30.120
<v Speaker 2>who wins Offensive Rookie of the Year.

0:38:32.160 --> 0:38:36.480
<v Speaker 3>I don't, guys, I don't think that's allowed. I think

0:38:36.520 --> 0:38:41.920
<v Speaker 3>that's considered gambling on the NFL. I think it's totally

0:38:41.960 --> 0:38:46.360
<v Speaker 3>fine and not a problem. But I also, like I

0:38:46.400 --> 0:38:48.680
<v Speaker 3>wouldn't say that publicly, and I wouldn't.

0:38:49.080 --> 0:38:49.479
<v Speaker 4>I don't.

0:38:49.880 --> 0:38:52.720
<v Speaker 3>I don't think that's allowed, guys.

0:38:52.920 --> 0:38:59.240
<v Speaker 2>I'm not sure. I mean, it's been up for eighteen hours,

0:39:00.160 --> 0:39:00.920
<v Speaker 2>so like.

0:39:02.360 --> 0:39:08.839
<v Speaker 3>I I don't for the camera, Yeah, that's I think

0:39:08.880 --> 0:39:12.000
<v Speaker 3>what you gotta say. I just don't think that's allowed.

0:39:13.000 --> 0:39:15.440
<v Speaker 3>I'd yeah, I don't know.

0:39:15.680 --> 0:39:18.280
<v Speaker 2>I'm not trying to get anyone, and I can't imagine

0:39:18.280 --> 0:39:20.560
<v Speaker 2>they would actually get in trouble. But I don't think

0:39:20.560 --> 0:39:23.319
<v Speaker 2>you're I don't think anything involving.

0:39:22.960 --> 0:39:27.399
<v Speaker 3>For professional football. They want your betting on if you're

0:39:27.440 --> 0:39:31.560
<v Speaker 3>playing professional football. I'm just I just I just think

0:39:31.600 --> 0:39:32.880
<v Speaker 3>that all right to Mona.

0:39:35.440 --> 0:39:38.759
<v Speaker 4>Yeah yeah, so Uh. Historically for a team to win

0:39:38.800 --> 0:39:41.520
<v Speaker 4>a finals, they have to take their playoff slumps. Uh.

0:39:41.640 --> 0:39:44.600
<v Speaker 4>But Minnesota and Okasee are both undefeated and look like

0:39:44.640 --> 0:39:48.880
<v Speaker 4>the real deal despite being inexperience and young. Uh. Do

0:39:49.239 --> 0:39:51.439
<v Speaker 4>you think this is the year that that historical mold

0:39:51.520 --> 0:39:52.000
<v Speaker 4>is broken?

0:39:54.480 --> 0:39:59.280
<v Speaker 2>So it would be more broken from a team standpoint

0:39:59.280 --> 0:40:03.120
<v Speaker 2>of OKC does it? OKC is the youngest team to

0:40:03.239 --> 0:40:06.960
<v Speaker 2>ever win a single game in Round two. They're the

0:40:07.120 --> 0:40:11.080
<v Speaker 2>second youngest team to ever win a single series. That

0:40:11.239 --> 0:40:16.680
<v Speaker 2>team winning a title seems impossible, but we talked about

0:40:16.680 --> 0:40:19.759
<v Speaker 2>this on the TV show yesterday. The only thing, the

0:40:19.800 --> 0:40:24.040
<v Speaker 2>only argument against them is the experience argument. Top five offense,

0:40:24.120 --> 0:40:26.560
<v Speaker 2>top five defense. They don't turn the ball over, they

0:40:26.560 --> 0:40:28.440
<v Speaker 2>have the best three point shooting in basketball.

0:40:29.120 --> 0:40:30.040
<v Speaker 3>The only thing they do.

0:40:29.960 --> 0:40:35.200
<v Speaker 2>Poorly is rebound. I don't think they're gonna win the title.

0:40:35.360 --> 0:40:40.400
<v Speaker 2>Like the way this should work, Demons is Boston should

0:40:40.400 --> 0:40:45.600
<v Speaker 2>win the title if Denver gets popped. This is all

0:40:45.640 --> 0:40:48.880
<v Speaker 2>on a silver platter for Boston. You're either playing a

0:40:48.920 --> 0:40:49.680
<v Speaker 2>MAVs team.

0:40:50.200 --> 0:40:54.319
<v Speaker 4>That is that end of how easy it was for

0:40:54.360 --> 0:40:57.560
<v Speaker 4>the Celtics though, Oh nobody cares about that.

0:40:57.719 --> 0:41:01.280
<v Speaker 3>Nobody cares about that the title. You win the title.

0:41:02.960 --> 0:41:06.719
<v Speaker 2>The only time people I think care about that is

0:41:06.800 --> 0:41:13.000
<v Speaker 2>if in the finals the other team's best players suffered

0:41:13.000 --> 0:41:17.440
<v Speaker 2>debilitating injury. Yeah, like the I do look at that

0:41:17.640 --> 0:41:22.360
<v Speaker 2>Raptors Championship as good for them for getting there and surviving.

0:41:23.239 --> 0:41:27.319
<v Speaker 2>But when Klay Thompson blows out his knee and Kevin

0:41:27.360 --> 0:41:30.600
<v Speaker 2>Durant plays eleven minutes in the series and Pops's achilles.

0:41:30.560 --> 0:41:32.840
<v Speaker 3>Do I think they were the best team?

0:41:33.600 --> 0:41:33.680
<v Speaker 2>No?

0:41:34.000 --> 0:41:34.680
<v Speaker 3>You know what I mean?

0:41:34.760 --> 0:41:38.960
<v Speaker 2>Like the I don't, But nobody cares about path like

0:41:39.000 --> 0:41:41.239
<v Speaker 2>the and the Celtics earned the path might be in

0:41:41.280 --> 0:41:47.040
<v Speaker 2>the one seede being so the the the That's the

0:41:47.080 --> 0:41:49.560
<v Speaker 2>way it should work this year because if you play

0:41:49.600 --> 0:41:52.920
<v Speaker 2>the MAVs, you have six of the eight best.

0:41:52.680 --> 0:41:53.760
<v Speaker 3>Players in the series.

0:41:54.680 --> 0:41:59.279
<v Speaker 2>If you play the Timberwolves you have the ability to

0:42:00.239 --> 0:42:02.719
<v Speaker 2>kind of play five out in a way that could

0:42:02.760 --> 0:42:05.560
<v Speaker 2>really give them trouble and maybe play Rudy off the floor.

0:42:05.880 --> 0:42:09.560
<v Speaker 2>And if you play the Thunder you have all the experience.

0:42:10.640 --> 0:42:13.200
<v Speaker 2>Uh yeah, I wouldn't look.

0:42:13.000 --> 0:42:14.200
<v Speaker 3>At it as that is.

0:42:14.760 --> 0:42:17.440
<v Speaker 4>The Celtics don't win, it just opens up a whole

0:42:17.560 --> 0:42:20.759
<v Speaker 4>new like can for the NBA I just feel like

0:42:20.760 --> 0:42:23.480
<v Speaker 4>everything will just be recalibrated.

0:42:23.840 --> 0:42:29.239
<v Speaker 2>One right, and the only the only world where the

0:42:29.239 --> 0:42:33.880
<v Speaker 2>Celtics could have not won the title given the playoff

0:42:33.920 --> 0:42:39.200
<v Speaker 2>bracket and felt good about their season was if Denver

0:42:39.280 --> 0:42:43.040
<v Speaker 2>beat them, If you're playing the defending champs, if Jokic

0:42:43.200 --> 0:42:46.239
<v Speaker 2>is there, if he just elevates to another level, it's like,

0:42:46.280 --> 0:42:48.480
<v Speaker 2>all right, like you know what I mean, we're playing

0:42:48.560 --> 0:42:52.120
<v Speaker 2>an all time great player and at the peak of

0:42:52.120 --> 0:42:55.920
<v Speaker 2>his powers. But if twenty two year old Anthony Edwards dust,

0:42:56.000 --> 0:42:58.120
<v Speaker 2>you gotta.

0:42:58.800 --> 0:43:01.799
<v Speaker 4>The argument with this Cltics the entire time. Like when

0:43:01.840 --> 0:43:03.759
<v Speaker 4>they I mean when they got to the finals, it's like, oh,

0:43:03.760 --> 0:43:06.920
<v Speaker 4>they're not experienced. They've been here yep and.

0:43:06.760 --> 0:43:10.320
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, and now they have exactly And it's a weird

0:43:10.400 --> 0:43:14.520
<v Speaker 2>spot because, like, I like, the Celtics are your team.

0:43:15.480 --> 0:43:17.280
<v Speaker 3>They play a playoff game tonight.

0:43:17.840 --> 0:43:21.040
<v Speaker 2>My guess is you're not even that excited for it

0:43:21.080 --> 0:43:22.120
<v Speaker 2>because it feels.

0:43:21.840 --> 0:43:24.880
<v Speaker 4>Like I'm way more doubt into other series than I

0:43:24.920 --> 0:43:27.399
<v Speaker 4>am the Celtics. I mean this, this whole if I'm

0:43:27.400 --> 0:43:29.600
<v Speaker 4>being honest, this whole playoff runt. I've been watching more

0:43:29.600 --> 0:43:31.240
<v Speaker 4>of other teams watched the Celtics.

0:43:31.320 --> 0:43:34.400
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, because right, because it's like, all right, they're obviously

0:43:34.440 --> 0:43:39.560
<v Speaker 2>gonna beat Miami without Jimmy, They're obviously gonna beat Cleveland.

0:43:39.960 --> 0:43:42.720
<v Speaker 2>And then you know what I mean, next round they

0:43:42.760 --> 0:43:45.600
<v Speaker 2>could be playing a Knicks team that has nobody left

0:43:46.080 --> 0:43:48.040
<v Speaker 2>or a Pacers Like I.

0:43:48.000 --> 0:43:51.640
<v Speaker 4>Mean, like if it is exactly rather it or not be.

0:43:51.800 --> 0:43:55.760
<v Speaker 2>But yeah, and so I the so it's a weird

0:43:55.800 --> 0:43:58.520
<v Speaker 2>spot the Okay, all right, let's move on to a game.

0:43:58.560 --> 0:44:01.040
<v Speaker 2>It's a new game we're playing called Moving the Needle

0:44:01.520 --> 0:44:03.160
<v Speaker 2>Dog Edition dog Ometer.

0:44:03.560 --> 0:44:06.080
<v Speaker 3>Okay, try, this is a real test.

0:44:06.800 --> 0:44:09.720
<v Speaker 4>Oh so Yeah. Everybody likes to say their favorite players

0:44:09.719 --> 0:44:12.160
<v Speaker 4>have that dog in them, but if we're being honest,

0:44:12.200 --> 0:44:15.719
<v Speaker 4>some players are more toy poodle than pitbull. So, in

0:44:15.760 --> 0:44:18.480
<v Speaker 4>honor of the Westminster Dog Show coming to Fox early

0:44:18.560 --> 0:44:20.839
<v Speaker 4>next week, let's take a look at how much dog

0:44:20.920 --> 0:44:24.560
<v Speaker 4>these playoffs starts have inside of them. First off, we

0:44:24.719 --> 0:44:28.319
<v Speaker 4>got we got my guy, Jason Tatum. Jason Tatum has

0:44:28.360 --> 0:44:30.520
<v Speaker 4>led the Celtics to the conference finals in four of

0:44:30.560 --> 0:44:33.920
<v Speaker 4>the last six years, but Tatum has has bad, bad

0:44:34.000 --> 0:44:36.359
<v Speaker 4>shooting Knights and has only scored twenty four points once

0:44:36.360 --> 0:44:39.360
<v Speaker 4>in these playoffs. On a scale of pup to hound,

0:44:39.560 --> 0:44:42.040
<v Speaker 4>how much does Tatum? How much dog does Jason Tatum

0:44:42.080 --> 0:44:42.839
<v Speaker 4>have inside of him?

0:44:43.840 --> 0:44:44.080
<v Speaker 3>Oh?

0:44:44.160 --> 0:44:49.919
<v Speaker 2>Look, demon say the the the hound is Dexter. Yeah,

0:44:50.000 --> 0:44:55.160
<v Speaker 2>our dog on the far right. But so here's the thing.

0:44:56.239 --> 0:44:58.880
<v Speaker 2>I'm gonna put him like a squirrel over the left,

0:44:59.560 --> 0:45:03.759
<v Speaker 2>put him right in the middle, because we have seen.

0:45:03.880 --> 0:45:08.600
<v Speaker 2>Listen Tatum's Game six against Giannis, Yeah is all time?

0:45:09.520 --> 0:45:13.080
<v Speaker 2>His Game seven against Philly last year?

0:45:13.760 --> 0:45:14.440
<v Speaker 3>Was it Philly?

0:45:14.640 --> 0:45:18.240
<v Speaker 2>I think it was, Yeah is all time. But here's

0:45:18.320 --> 0:45:24.080
<v Speaker 2>the other thing. The And this is where Celtic Celtics

0:45:24.080 --> 0:45:27.640
<v Speaker 2>fans get so mad at Colin Cowherd because he's like

0:45:27.840 --> 0:45:32.239
<v Speaker 2>he basically calls Tatum a B plus a minus and

0:45:32.280 --> 0:45:35.120
<v Speaker 2>that he'll never be in A plus. He'll never be

0:45:35.400 --> 0:45:40.920
<v Speaker 2>like that guy. But I think he's right. And the

0:45:41.000 --> 0:45:44.080
<v Speaker 2>evidence I would bring you is this, even the best

0:45:44.080 --> 0:45:48.600
<v Speaker 2>player in the world, joker can be bad, downright bad

0:45:48.640 --> 0:45:51.719
<v Speaker 2>in a playoff game like he was Game two. Everybody

0:45:51.760 --> 0:45:57.640
<v Speaker 2>has bad games, but the best guys when they're in

0:45:57.719 --> 0:46:01.400
<v Speaker 2>their prime, never have a string of them in a

0:46:01.520 --> 0:46:06.919
<v Speaker 2>row in the postseason. And Tatum, you could argue, he's

0:46:06.920 --> 0:46:10.200
<v Speaker 2>played six playoff games this year, he's played up to

0:46:10.280 --> 0:46:13.719
<v Speaker 2>his standard in one of them the last four he's

0:46:13.719 --> 0:46:17.240
<v Speaker 2>six of sixteen, five of fourteen, four of nine, seven

0:46:17.280 --> 0:46:20.399
<v Speaker 2>of nineteen, and he's averaging less than twenty points. That's

0:46:20.440 --> 0:46:21.840
<v Speaker 2>a four game stretch.

0:46:22.160 --> 0:46:25.439
<v Speaker 4>You say he's the guy with the best supporting cast ever,

0:46:25.520 --> 0:46:27.680
<v Speaker 4>though like it's more.

0:46:29.400 --> 0:46:32.720
<v Speaker 2>I mean, yes, but he's got the best supporting cast

0:46:32.719 --> 0:46:37.160
<v Speaker 2>of everybody. But so here's the thing that doesn't explain

0:46:37.360 --> 0:46:41.960
<v Speaker 2>the inefficiency, that would explain low point totals. But when

0:46:42.000 --> 0:46:44.960
<v Speaker 2>he's taking shots, he's trying to make them. And so

0:46:45.680 --> 0:46:49.720
<v Speaker 2>I just the worry I would have if I were you, Demonse,

0:46:50.000 --> 0:46:55.480
<v Speaker 2>is this, no matter who comes out of the West,

0:46:55.920 --> 0:46:58.000
<v Speaker 2>they're gonna have the best player in the series.

0:46:59.600 --> 0:47:01.400
<v Speaker 3>And say, Luca Joker.

0:47:01.680 --> 0:47:04.840
<v Speaker 2>There's only like five six guys in the league that

0:47:04.920 --> 0:47:08.760
<v Speaker 2>are hands down better than Tatum, but they're all left

0:47:08.760 --> 0:47:12.560
<v Speaker 2>in the Western Conference, And so you're not you can

0:47:12.600 --> 0:47:13.400
<v Speaker 2>win without.

0:47:13.120 --> 0:47:15.719
<v Speaker 4>Having all those players are better? Right you said all

0:47:15.760 --> 0:47:17.439
<v Speaker 4>those players are Okay.

0:47:17.239 --> 0:47:20.400
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, that's what I'm saying. One of those four guys

0:47:20.520 --> 0:47:24.880
<v Speaker 2>is going to be in the finals. Aunt, Shae, Luca Joker.

0:47:25.400 --> 0:47:27.760
<v Speaker 2>They're all better than Tatum.

0:47:28.080 --> 0:47:28.719
<v Speaker 3>They just are.

0:47:29.000 --> 0:47:32.560
<v Speaker 4>So I think that's a little recency bias right there.

0:47:32.560 --> 0:47:40.279
<v Speaker 4>But Uh, you on you saying that all of them

0:47:40.280 --> 0:47:42.759
<v Speaker 4>are okay except for except for a joker, but an

0:47:42.960 --> 0:47:46.880
<v Speaker 4>in Shae and who's the other one you mentioned? Luca

0:47:47.000 --> 0:47:48.880
<v Speaker 4>okay fair.

0:47:49.320 --> 0:47:52.600
<v Speaker 2>Better than Tatum his whole career. The I know you don't,

0:47:52.600 --> 0:47:55.400
<v Speaker 2>but that's fine. I mean, An just finished second in

0:47:55.480 --> 0:47:59.000
<v Speaker 2>MVP voting. I'm sorry, Shae just finished second MVP voting.

0:47:59.239 --> 0:48:00.000
<v Speaker 3>And Ant is.

0:48:00.480 --> 0:48:02.759
<v Speaker 2>Been light in the world on fire that you're right

0:48:02.880 --> 0:48:07.120
<v Speaker 2>that this year people thought Tatum was better than Ant,

0:48:07.280 --> 0:48:08.760
<v Speaker 2>not than Shay, but then Ant.

0:48:09.920 --> 0:48:10.799
<v Speaker 3>But I don't think that.

0:48:11.520 --> 0:48:14.920
<v Speaker 2>I don't. I think Ants a killer in away. Tatum's

0:48:14.960 --> 0:48:15.920
<v Speaker 2>not sorry, I just do.

0:48:17.480 --> 0:48:21.759
<v Speaker 4>All right? Next? All right, Secondly, we'll go with Jamal Murray,

0:48:21.800 --> 0:48:24.480
<v Speaker 4>whose pockets are one hundred thousand lighter. After throwing that

0:48:24.600 --> 0:48:27.399
<v Speaker 4>hot pack on the on the court, you called him

0:48:27.400 --> 0:48:29.880
<v Speaker 4>a baby, but let's not forget he's also arguably the

0:48:29.920 --> 0:48:33.520
<v Speaker 4>greatest playoff riser ever on a scale of pupp to hound.

0:48:33.880 --> 0:48:36.080
<v Speaker 4>How much dog does Jamal Murray having him.

0:48:36.440 --> 0:48:39.560
<v Speaker 2>Well, were about to find out right now. I'll put

0:48:39.640 --> 0:48:42.840
<v Speaker 2>him in the yellow so, you know, closer to hound

0:48:42.920 --> 0:48:46.799
<v Speaker 2>than pup for people that are listening. Uh, but let's

0:48:46.840 --> 0:48:49.680
<v Speaker 2>go see how he looks. In Game three, the guy

0:48:49.760 --> 0:48:56.920
<v Speaker 2>won't I have been really uh disenchanted, I don't know

0:48:56.960 --> 0:49:01.360
<v Speaker 2>if that's the right word, but disappointed with his antics

0:49:01.360 --> 0:49:06.840
<v Speaker 2>and his comments and lack of accountability, uh for that

0:49:07.040 --> 0:49:08.279
<v Speaker 2>nonsense in game too.

0:49:08.320 --> 0:49:10.920
<v Speaker 3>And he hasn't been very good flatly.

0:49:11.800 --> 0:49:11.920
<v Speaker 4>Uh.

0:49:12.320 --> 0:49:14.880
<v Speaker 2>The Lakers series bizarre because he was only great in

0:49:14.960 --> 0:49:17.239
<v Speaker 2>one game. He didn't play a good series, but he

0:49:17.280 --> 0:49:20.400
<v Speaker 2>had two game wins, and so right, I mean the

0:49:20.440 --> 0:49:23.400
<v Speaker 2>two game winners, like you just wipe everything away. But

0:49:23.440 --> 0:49:26.799
<v Speaker 2>then in these two games he's been whiny, he's been complaining,

0:49:27.000 --> 0:49:30.480
<v Speaker 2>and so yeah, we'll see, let's see. I reserve the

0:49:30.560 --> 0:49:32.040
<v Speaker 2>right to change that opinion.

0:49:33.000 --> 0:49:35.480
<v Speaker 3>All right, is this the most?

0:49:35.600 --> 0:49:39.680
<v Speaker 4>Like? How often is this not the most that players

0:49:39.680 --> 0:49:42.680
<v Speaker 4>and coaches have have whined about reffing in the postseason?

0:49:42.840 --> 0:49:44.799
<v Speaker 4>Is it? Is it at a high or is it

0:49:44.840 --> 0:49:46.320
<v Speaker 4>just about the standard?

0:49:46.520 --> 0:49:50.320
<v Speaker 2>I would say it's most, but it's more than usual.

0:49:51.280 --> 0:49:54.919
<v Speaker 2>Doc Rivers is an all time you know, ref complainer guy.

0:49:55.360 --> 0:49:59.000
<v Speaker 2>There are certain coaches that try to work the refs.

0:49:58.640 --> 0:50:03.000
<v Speaker 3>In the media. I do. I do think that there

0:50:03.440 --> 0:50:08.719
<v Speaker 3>is higher more than usual, but not the most.

0:50:08.760 --> 0:50:10.759
<v Speaker 4>You think it has anything to do with the new

0:50:10.880 --> 0:50:11.560
<v Speaker 4>rule changes?

0:50:12.080 --> 0:50:16.319
<v Speaker 2>That im, well, that aren't official rule changes. Yes, I

0:50:16.360 --> 0:50:18.960
<v Speaker 2>do think that, like that they change the rules mid

0:50:19.040 --> 0:50:21.600
<v Speaker 2>season without actually changing the rules and started letting people

0:50:21.640 --> 0:50:25.080
<v Speaker 2>play more physical. I also think what is frustrating guys

0:50:25.840 --> 0:50:32.440
<v Speaker 2>is if you watch Dallas OKC, it was officiated like

0:50:32.800 --> 0:50:35.760
<v Speaker 2>how games were officiated the first week of the regular season,

0:50:36.280 --> 0:50:38.920
<v Speaker 2>and if you had just watched Minnesota Denver, it was

0:50:38.960 --> 0:50:42.080
<v Speaker 2>officiated like it was happening in a prison, And so

0:50:42.120 --> 0:50:45.879
<v Speaker 2>it's like, well, do we know like what rules we're

0:50:45.920 --> 0:50:49.680
<v Speaker 2>going to be playing by now? The reason I actually

0:50:49.719 --> 0:50:54.960
<v Speaker 2>thought both games were fine was because they were officiated

0:50:55.120 --> 0:50:58.880
<v Speaker 2>consistently within the game, you know what I mean. Like

0:50:59.000 --> 0:51:03.040
<v Speaker 2>Dallas OKAC had a very tight whistle from the very

0:51:03.080 --> 0:51:06.880
<v Speaker 2>beginning to the very end, and Minnesota Denver had no whistle.

0:51:06.680 --> 0:51:08.160
<v Speaker 3>From the very beginning to the very end.

0:51:08.800 --> 0:51:11.880
<v Speaker 2>The all right, that is also the other concern for

0:51:12.120 --> 0:51:15.719
<v Speaker 2>OKAC is what if they don't get the whistle. So

0:51:16.200 --> 0:51:20.279
<v Speaker 2>Shae Shay this year, this is an unbelievable stat. Shay

0:51:20.400 --> 0:51:23.680
<v Speaker 2>this year shot the exact same number of free throws

0:51:24.719 --> 0:51:30.759
<v Speaker 2>as Lebron and Paul George combined. Those two guys played

0:51:30.760 --> 0:51:33.000
<v Speaker 2>one hundred and forty five games. Between the two of them,

0:51:33.239 --> 0:51:36.280
<v Speaker 2>Shay played seventy five. I think he shot the exactly

0:51:36.320 --> 0:51:37.200
<v Speaker 2>so he.

0:51:37.960 --> 0:51:42.840
<v Speaker 4>Hands down better than Tatum. By the way, I.

0:51:42.719 --> 0:51:45.280
<v Speaker 2>Think he is better than Tatum, but I'm just saying

0:51:46.080 --> 0:51:48.200
<v Speaker 2>a lot of that is relying on his ability to

0:51:48.239 --> 0:51:50.800
<v Speaker 2>get to the line, and if he's not getting the whistle,

0:51:50.840 --> 0:51:52.720
<v Speaker 2>I wonder how that's gonna impact him all right.

0:51:52.640 --> 0:51:57.080
<v Speaker 4>Next, most people may associate Donovan Mitchell with more with

0:51:57.160 --> 0:52:01.440
<v Speaker 4>an Iraq name than a dog. Stopped him from becoming

0:52:01.440 --> 0:52:04.160
<v Speaker 4>a top ten point points per game score over the

0:52:04.160 --> 0:52:07.040
<v Speaker 4>playoffs on a scale of Scooby Doo to air Bud?

0:52:07.200 --> 0:52:09.240
<v Speaker 4>How much dog is a ton of Mitchell have inside

0:52:09.239 --> 0:52:10.040
<v Speaker 4>of him?

0:52:10.440 --> 0:52:12.759
<v Speaker 3>Why is hold on? Why so air Bud's the best?

0:52:12.920 --> 0:52:16.160
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, I'm confused on Scooby Doo w being not dog?

0:52:17.120 --> 0:52:17.319
<v Speaker 3>Yeah?

0:52:17.560 --> 0:52:24.000
<v Speaker 2>I terrible ranking system guys, he's cowardly. Shut up, Daniel,

0:52:25.560 --> 0:52:27.640
<v Speaker 2>what do you know about Scooby Doo? You're too young?

0:52:28.200 --> 0:52:31.520
<v Speaker 2>They called Scooby do How many crimes have you solved?

0:52:32.239 --> 0:52:32.399
<v Speaker 1>Uh?

0:52:33.440 --> 0:52:36.719
<v Speaker 3>I'm I'm I'm gonna say.

0:52:36.760 --> 0:52:41.520
<v Speaker 2>On offense, he's ultimate dog and on defense even in

0:52:41.560 --> 0:52:44.440
<v Speaker 2>the playoffs, he's a total pop. And it's why I

0:52:44.480 --> 0:52:48.640
<v Speaker 2>can't totally get on board with Donovan Mitchell the superstar.

0:52:49.480 --> 0:52:53.440
<v Speaker 2>But on offense, he's unbelievable, absolutely unbelievable and has been

0:52:53.440 --> 0:52:57.000
<v Speaker 2>his whole career. All right, let's go to Anthony Edwards.

0:52:57.400 --> 0:53:01.600
<v Speaker 4>Uh, former Georgia Bulldog. Anthony Edwards taking the league by storm.

0:53:01.800 --> 0:53:03.880
<v Speaker 4>He's talking to that talk and he's also backing it

0:53:04.000 --> 0:53:07.080
<v Speaker 4>up on a scale of cats. A Georgia bulldog. How

0:53:07.120 --> 0:53:09.399
<v Speaker 4>much dog does Anthony Edwards having side of him?

0:53:10.680 --> 0:53:11.640
<v Speaker 3>Is this even a question?

0:53:12.400 --> 0:53:12.920
<v Speaker 4>Yeah?

0:53:13.600 --> 0:53:19.680
<v Speaker 3>Full blown bulldog. This guy is so much fun.

0:53:19.760 --> 0:53:21.000
<v Speaker 4>Malonaise or something?

0:53:22.560 --> 0:53:23.560
<v Speaker 3>What what did you say?

0:53:23.800 --> 0:53:25.279
<v Speaker 4>A malonnaise melaniese?

0:53:26.239 --> 0:53:28.080
<v Speaker 3>Oh? Is that like a big, strong dog?

0:53:28.200 --> 0:53:31.160
<v Speaker 4>You know? More do? It's like a German shepherd, but

0:53:31.239 --> 0:53:33.720
<v Speaker 4>like their faces are more blacked out. I think cops

0:53:33.800 --> 0:53:34.200
<v Speaker 4>use him?

0:53:34.719 --> 0:53:41.280
<v Speaker 2>Oh a Belgian shepherd? Yeah, Belgian MALANOI malanois melani.

0:53:42.040 --> 0:53:44.880
<v Speaker 3>I don't know. Oh yeah, well let's not let's not

0:53:44.960 --> 0:53:46.840
<v Speaker 3>do that to him. Let's not call him a cop dog.

0:53:48.000 --> 0:53:56.160
<v Speaker 2>But yeah, but but yeah, tough, like a angry Doberman

0:53:56.320 --> 0:53:57.239
<v Speaker 2>Junkyard dog.

0:53:57.320 --> 0:54:01.480
<v Speaker 3>I love god, I love watching him. All right, let's go.

0:54:02.840 --> 0:54:05.000
<v Speaker 4>Last year, you said Dexter has no place that the

0:54:05.040 --> 0:54:05.760
<v Speaker 4>Dog Show.

0:54:05.680 --> 0:54:07.320
<v Speaker 3>Oh wait, no, you're skipping the Thunder.

0:54:07.360 --> 0:54:11.160
<v Speaker 4>Hold on, hold on, crap, no, no disrespect. After every

0:54:11.239 --> 0:54:13.799
<v Speaker 4>win the Thunder do their own core interviewed together and

0:54:13.960 --> 0:54:18.120
<v Speaker 4>ended by barking such dorks on a scale of cat

0:54:18.400 --> 0:54:21.600
<v Speaker 4>to Michael J. Fox and teen Wolves, how much dog

0:54:21.640 --> 0:54:23.080
<v Speaker 4>does the Thunder have inside of them?

0:54:24.080 --> 0:54:26.160
<v Speaker 2>Okay, first of all, this is a little unfair to

0:54:26.239 --> 0:54:29.600
<v Speaker 2>Cat now Karl Anthony Towns because he is showing some

0:54:29.640 --> 0:54:33.799
<v Speaker 2>real fight here. But yeah, the Thunders grouping or I

0:54:33.840 --> 0:54:35.279
<v Speaker 2>got it on. I'm going to sound like a bit

0:54:35.280 --> 0:54:39.000
<v Speaker 2>of a hater and I kind of want someone.

0:54:38.760 --> 0:54:39.279
<v Speaker 3>To beat them.

0:54:40.000 --> 0:54:42.840
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, and I hope it's Luca. It's just a little

0:54:43.000 --> 0:54:45.960
<v Speaker 2>too high schooling. And I know they're young, and I

0:54:46.000 --> 0:54:49.719
<v Speaker 2>know lot of fun. Man, they are having a lot

0:54:49.760 --> 0:54:51.959
<v Speaker 2>of fun with it. And I know that's why he said.

0:54:52.000 --> 0:54:54.520
<v Speaker 2>I know, I'm being a bit of a hater here.

0:54:54.880 --> 0:54:58.480
<v Speaker 4>I mean I saw him or like a quote from

0:54:58.480 --> 0:55:00.640
<v Speaker 4>one of the guys, but it's like they are the only,

0:55:01.360 --> 0:55:04.759
<v Speaker 4>like the only group of guys that are aware of

0:55:04.800 --> 0:55:08.560
<v Speaker 4>what they're doing. Like, dude, you're making millions of dollars

0:55:08.600 --> 0:55:09.600
<v Speaker 4>to play basketball?

0:55:10.280 --> 0:55:15.239
<v Speaker 2>Uh? J Williams is quote No, so Jalen Williams Is

0:55:15.320 --> 0:55:18.480
<v Speaker 2>quote is a great one where he's like he was

0:55:18.560 --> 0:55:21.759
<v Speaker 2>asked about something and he was like, man, I get

0:55:21.760 --> 0:55:25.080
<v Speaker 2>paid millions of dollars to play basketball. And also you

0:55:25.080 --> 0:55:30.000
<v Speaker 2>got to keep in mind Jalen Williams' career, Demanse, Jalen Williams,

0:55:30.920 --> 0:55:37.799
<v Speaker 2>three star kid. His only offers were Nevada, Hofstra and

0:55:38.040 --> 0:55:43.400
<v Speaker 2>Santa Clara. He went to Santa Clara and you know,

0:55:43.680 --> 0:55:47.200
<v Speaker 2>was not on a lot of people's radar until the

0:55:47.360 --> 0:55:52.640
<v Speaker 2>very end of his collegiate career. And now he's, uh,

0:55:54.080 --> 0:55:58.319
<v Speaker 2>the second best player on the number one seed, you know,

0:55:58.600 --> 0:56:03.600
<v Speaker 2>the Oklahoma City Thunder. And so he is, I think,

0:56:03.680 --> 0:56:06.680
<v Speaker 2>really over the moon at what's happened. And that is

0:56:06.719 --> 0:56:10.320
<v Speaker 2>great scouting by them, by the way, Sam Thrusting and company.

0:56:10.360 --> 0:56:11.800
<v Speaker 3>All right, last one, Demanse.

0:56:12.600 --> 0:56:14.960
<v Speaker 4>All right, so last year you said Dexter has no

0:56:15.000 --> 0:56:18.160
<v Speaker 4>place at the dog show. Well, let's let's take a look.

0:56:18.920 --> 0:56:22.120
<v Speaker 3>Here's why my client was not invited to Westminster. He's

0:56:22.160 --> 0:56:23.920
<v Speaker 3>one of the dumbest animals ever to live.

0:56:24.040 --> 0:56:26.280
<v Speaker 4>He's really he's not great.

0:56:27.200 --> 0:56:32.160
<v Speaker 3>I mean, I understand no dogs are brilliant, but our

0:56:32.400 --> 0:56:37.720
<v Speaker 3>dog is cartoonishly stupid. Oh yeah, go ahead, demanse.

0:56:38.080 --> 0:56:40.759
<v Speaker 4>So, do you think he's improved his draft stock since

0:56:40.800 --> 0:56:41.279
<v Speaker 4>last year?

0:56:42.400 --> 0:56:46.320
<v Speaker 2>No, I mean he's he's he's sweeter now than he

0:56:46.480 --> 0:56:51.840
<v Speaker 2>used to be. He's a little less like insane, but

0:56:51.920 --> 0:56:56.759
<v Speaker 2>he's still pretty nuts and he is just real. I

0:56:57.200 --> 0:56:58.759
<v Speaker 2>don't know if I've told this story on the air

0:56:58.840 --> 0:57:01.400
<v Speaker 2>or not, but I'll tell it real quick and then

0:57:01.400 --> 0:57:07.160
<v Speaker 2>we'll move on when I say he's dumb. Every morning,

0:57:08.200 --> 0:57:11.200
<v Speaker 2>every morning, I get up and.

0:57:11.200 --> 0:57:13.640
<v Speaker 3>I take him out, and I give.

0:57:13.560 --> 0:57:18.200
<v Speaker 2>Him fresh water and fresh food, and he hangs out

0:57:18.320 --> 0:57:22.280
<v Speaker 2>until I go to work, and then every day when

0:57:22.320 --> 0:57:26.960
<v Speaker 2>I get home from work, that water and food are

0:57:27.040 --> 0:57:31.240
<v Speaker 2>sitting there untouched, no matter if I get home at

0:57:31.320 --> 0:57:34.360
<v Speaker 2>four forty five or seven thirty at night.

0:57:36.320 --> 0:57:38.040
<v Speaker 3>And then the moment I walk in the.

0:57:38.000 --> 0:57:43.000
<v Speaker 2>Door, I take him out, and then he ravenously eats

0:57:43.040 --> 0:57:46.440
<v Speaker 2>and drinks everything he had, and I give him more

0:57:46.440 --> 0:57:48.920
<v Speaker 2>water and he drinks it up because he is starving

0:57:49.560 --> 0:57:56.600
<v Speaker 2>and so thirsty. And I think it is because if

0:57:56.720 --> 0:58:00.240
<v Speaker 2>I'm not there, he hasn't yet figured out that I

0:58:00.320 --> 0:58:03.960
<v Speaker 2>always come back. And I think he's like, this might

0:58:04.000 --> 0:58:06.040
<v Speaker 2>have to last me the rest of my life, so

0:58:06.160 --> 0:58:08.800
<v Speaker 2>I can't no matter how hungry or thirsty, I am,

0:58:08.920 --> 0:58:14.720
<v Speaker 2>I can't eat it or well, so that does involve

0:58:14.760 --> 0:58:18.920
<v Speaker 2>a level of thinking. But also after three years, you

0:58:19.000 --> 0:58:23.520
<v Speaker 2>haven't realized, buddy, I'm always coming back. I mean, this

0:58:23.640 --> 0:58:27.960
<v Speaker 2>poor guy is just sitting there so thirsty and hungry

0:58:28.040 --> 0:58:29.640
<v Speaker 2>and won't touch the food.

0:58:30.200 --> 0:58:33.440
<v Speaker 3>And that's just I mean, he's just, I mean he's

0:58:33.800 --> 0:58:39.200
<v Speaker 3>I love him. I love him, But I know it's

0:58:39.240 --> 0:58:41.360
<v Speaker 3>been a while. You haven't seen him since Thanksgiving?

0:58:41.800 --> 0:58:44.280
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, it's been a while. All right, quick break, right back,

0:58:44.320 --> 0:58:46.400
<v Speaker 2>we answer listener questions. Next, What's right?

0:58:52.720 --> 0:58:55.280
<v Speaker 3>All right, welcome back in What's right with Nick? Right, demonse,

0:58:55.400 --> 0:58:57.320
<v Speaker 3>Let's get some of these listener questions.

0:58:58.160 --> 0:59:00.880
<v Speaker 4>Bradley Hammond asked, are this year's playoff showing that the

0:59:00.880 --> 0:59:04.400
<v Speaker 4>regular season matters more than the narrative would say Denver

0:59:04.480 --> 0:59:08.400
<v Speaker 4>versus Okacs pat to the finals as prime example, Knicks

0:59:08.400 --> 0:59:11.920
<v Speaker 4>culture proving wise because of the Nuggets won that Spurs game,

0:59:12.480 --> 0:59:14.080
<v Speaker 4>they wouldn't even been in the position.

0:59:15.240 --> 0:59:17.320
<v Speaker 3>Correct? Correct?

0:59:18.040 --> 0:59:21.960
<v Speaker 2>And also if the Nuggets the the Nuggets played okay

0:59:21.960 --> 0:59:23.840
<v Speaker 2>see late in the year and SGA hit a game

0:59:23.880 --> 0:59:26.160
<v Speaker 2>winner with a second left, Yeah, like, there are a

0:59:26.200 --> 0:59:28.040
<v Speaker 2>lot of ways for the Nuggets to be the one

0:59:28.120 --> 0:59:30.160
<v Speaker 2>seed and not be dealing with this. And by the way,

0:59:30.240 --> 0:59:34.280
<v Speaker 2>shout out to Bradley Hammond, who was on our stream

0:59:34.360 --> 0:59:37.280
<v Speaker 2>before we went live, so we wanted to let his

0:59:37.440 --> 0:59:40.000
<v Speaker 2>question be up first. I Yeah, I mean, I do

0:59:40.040 --> 0:59:44.880
<v Speaker 2>think there is some redemption here. Demons for the regular

0:59:44.960 --> 0:59:50.280
<v Speaker 2>season and the Lakers screwing around the first fifty games

0:59:50.880 --> 0:59:54.280
<v Speaker 2>and starts well, yeah, I mean they didn't start their

0:59:54.280 --> 0:59:55.960
<v Speaker 2>best lineup until game fifty.

0:59:56.400 --> 0:59:57.200
<v Speaker 3>Just seems dumb.

0:59:57.560 --> 1:00:01.840
<v Speaker 2>But you guys, people can ask darbnham about it and

1:00:02.120 --> 1:00:04.440
<v Speaker 2>end up having to fight for their lives just to

1:00:04.560 --> 1:00:07.000
<v Speaker 2>you know, get out of the ten spot all year.

1:00:07.080 --> 1:00:10.760
<v Speaker 2>The Yeah, there's a lot of a lot of the

1:00:11.640 --> 1:00:14.720
<v Speaker 2>regular season and the Knicks fighting for that two seed

1:00:14.800 --> 1:00:18.800
<v Speaker 2>getting it dealing with Philly. Yes, I agree with that entirely.

1:00:18.880 --> 1:00:19.200
<v Speaker 3>All right.

1:00:19.280 --> 1:00:24.560
<v Speaker 4>Next, Caleb w asked which player currently which player currently

1:00:24.600 --> 1:00:27.760
<v Speaker 4>remaining will have the biggest legacy legacy boost if they

1:00:27.760 --> 1:00:37.000
<v Speaker 4>were to win the championship. Brunson. Huh, it's like just

1:00:37.040 --> 1:00:38.440
<v Speaker 4>considering with what I mean.

1:00:39.120 --> 1:00:41.440
<v Speaker 3>No, I mean it is Brunson.

1:00:41.520 --> 1:00:43.840
<v Speaker 2>I guess I don't think they can win the title,

1:00:44.520 --> 1:00:47.040
<v Speaker 2>but yeah, I mean it would be Brunson that I

1:00:47.080 --> 1:00:52.200
<v Speaker 2>think second place would be Luca. If Luca wins the title,

1:00:53.320 --> 1:00:59.040
<v Speaker 2>then he's twenty five. You're you start looking at him

1:00:59.040 --> 1:01:00.560
<v Speaker 2>as does he have a claim that he's the best

1:01:00.560 --> 1:01:01.960
<v Speaker 2>player in the league.

1:01:02.160 --> 1:01:04.400
<v Speaker 3>It's the only you know what I mean, Well, he's

1:01:04.440 --> 1:01:05.000
<v Speaker 3>twenty two?

1:01:05.680 --> 1:01:06.960
<v Speaker 4>Are you saying because he?

1:01:07.080 --> 1:01:12.520
<v Speaker 3>I mean, I I guess so, Ant. I feel like

1:01:14.960 --> 1:01:16.640
<v Speaker 3>Ant and say are younger than Luca.

1:01:17.360 --> 1:01:22.280
<v Speaker 2>I feel like, right now, Luca is almost old enough

1:01:22.360 --> 1:01:25.520
<v Speaker 2>to a point to where he starts to catch some

1:01:25.760 --> 1:01:29.240
<v Speaker 2>shrapnel for not having been to a finals, you know

1:01:29.280 --> 1:01:33.160
<v Speaker 2>what I mean? So it is Luca winning the title.

1:01:33.400 --> 1:01:36.280
<v Speaker 2>Dead's all that, and he has acclaimed best player in

1:01:36.280 --> 1:01:40.760
<v Speaker 2>the league. Ant already is like he's found money. But yeah,

1:01:40.800 --> 1:01:43.760
<v Speaker 2>I mean, Ant, we've never seen a guy aunt's age

1:01:43.800 --> 1:01:46.360
<v Speaker 2>be the best player on a champion. The best twenty

1:01:46.400 --> 1:01:49.040
<v Speaker 2>two year old season we ever saw was Lebron and No.

1:01:49.200 --> 1:01:52.480
<v Speaker 2>Seven getting that team to the finals. Kobe was awesome

1:01:52.520 --> 1:01:55.400
<v Speaker 2>at twenty two and won a title, but he obviously.

1:01:55.120 --> 1:02:00.000
<v Speaker 4>Was the beloe An age. He's like barely a year older.

1:02:01.440 --> 1:02:04.720
<v Speaker 2>Oh yeah, because Luca, Luca came in so young. That's

1:02:04.760 --> 1:02:08.320
<v Speaker 2>a good point as well. Uh so they're oh so gosh,

1:02:08.360 --> 1:02:09.040
<v Speaker 2>I thought.

1:02:09.000 --> 1:02:13.160
<v Speaker 4>I think for Luca, it's just his legacy, but I

1:02:13.200 --> 1:02:15.280
<v Speaker 4>think would have the bigger legacy boost.

1:02:16.520 --> 1:02:18.040
<v Speaker 2>You know what, I think you're right, you know what,

1:02:18.120 --> 1:02:20.520
<v Speaker 2>You're you're right about that about what it would do.

1:02:20.920 --> 1:02:25.040
<v Speaker 2>The other guy sneaky, what it is Tatum? Yeah, if

1:02:25.080 --> 1:02:28.480
<v Speaker 2>Tatum gets a finals MVP, like what you know what?

1:02:28.760 --> 1:02:30.960
<v Speaker 2>Now they win the title and Derek White gets the

1:02:31.000 --> 1:02:35.000
<v Speaker 2>finals MVP, it's it doesn't hurt Tatum obviously still.

1:02:34.880 --> 1:02:36.440
<v Speaker 4>Channel, but it's a different story.

1:02:38.040 --> 1:02:39.560
<v Speaker 3>All right, Let's go to the next one.

1:02:40.280 --> 1:02:43.640
<v Speaker 4>Kyle, Kyle, nuts and ass Nick, what do you think

1:02:43.680 --> 1:02:46.439
<v Speaker 4>the biggest immediate impacts of the new TV deal will

1:02:46.480 --> 1:02:50.000
<v Speaker 4>be impact on the players, networks, organizations, et cetera.

1:02:52.000 --> 1:02:52.120
<v Speaker 3>Uh.

1:02:52.400 --> 1:02:54.440
<v Speaker 2>I think the biggest impact is going to be people

1:02:54.480 --> 1:02:59.120
<v Speaker 2>getting really mad on TV when the guy first guy

1:02:59.280 --> 1:03:02.760
<v Speaker 2>signs an that's more than eighty two million dollars a year.

1:03:02.960 --> 1:03:04.400
<v Speaker 4>It is gonna be so obnoxious.

1:03:04.720 --> 1:03:07.080
<v Speaker 3>Get more than a million dollars a game.

1:03:07.200 --> 1:03:09.880
<v Speaker 2>That's there's gonna be no real impact other than the

1:03:10.000 --> 1:03:12.200
<v Speaker 2>superstar salaries are gonna be bananas.

1:03:12.640 --> 1:03:15.200
<v Speaker 3>But they earned it. Guys. People are like, why do

1:03:15.240 --> 1:03:17.400
<v Speaker 3>they make so much more than football players? Because there's

1:03:17.480 --> 1:03:20.600
<v Speaker 3>less of them guys, these twelve man teams a fifteen

1:03:20.600 --> 1:03:24.080
<v Speaker 3>man team. It's not complicated. It's just they play a

1:03:24.080 --> 1:03:25.880
<v Speaker 3>bunch of games and there's not a lot of players.

1:03:26.800 --> 1:03:32.080
<v Speaker 3>All right, next change d these two together. Chain P said,

1:03:32.200 --> 1:03:35.520
<v Speaker 3>let's play Fortnite. Where are we dropping in? Craig Barnett

1:03:36.000 --> 1:03:38.520
<v Speaker 3>question for Nick? What skin do you use on Fortnite?

1:03:38.760 --> 1:03:41.440
<v Speaker 3>Whicheveryone Dee put on before correct?

1:03:41.480 --> 1:03:43.680
<v Speaker 2>So I think right now, like I'm kind of like

1:03:43.720 --> 1:03:48.320
<v Speaker 2>a young hipster black girl on Fortnite because it's what

1:03:48.440 --> 1:03:51.760
<v Speaker 2>Deanna built out for me. And as far as where

1:03:51.800 --> 1:03:56.960
<v Speaker 2>I drop, I almost always drop, so demons, I've totally

1:03:57.040 --> 1:03:59.880
<v Speaker 2>changed in how I play for the record ever sent

1:04:00.440 --> 1:04:02.200
<v Speaker 2>and this is why I play a lot now these

1:04:02.280 --> 1:04:08.360
<v Speaker 2>days because for a long time you couldn't do ranked solo.

1:04:08.520 --> 1:04:11.360
<v Speaker 3>You had to be on duos or whatever. But now

1:04:11.480 --> 1:04:12.720
<v Speaker 3>ranked solo is a thing.

1:04:13.840 --> 1:04:16.120
<v Speaker 2>And I'm I mean, I'm trying to pat myself on

1:04:16.120 --> 1:04:19.720
<v Speaker 2>the back, but I'm platinum too. It's only like six rankings.

1:04:19.760 --> 1:04:22.200
<v Speaker 4>Oh so you like doing the rank thing? You just

1:04:22.320 --> 1:04:22.960
<v Speaker 4>like that system.

1:04:23.040 --> 1:04:25.280
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, because you play the back you play better people

1:04:25.880 --> 1:04:28.800
<v Speaker 2>Like yeah, it's way harder because you play people within

1:04:28.840 --> 1:04:29.280
<v Speaker 2>your rank.

1:04:30.440 --> 1:04:32.760
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, right, it's skill based mattery. I'm like, why do

1:04:32.800 --> 1:04:33.920
<v Speaker 4>you want to play better? People?

1:04:34.040 --> 1:04:36.960
<v Speaker 2>You're bad because I've gotten awesome at the game, Demons,

1:04:38.360 --> 1:04:42.320
<v Speaker 2>because I'm actually great at it now. Demise laughs because

1:04:42.320 --> 1:04:44.800
<v Speaker 2>when he lived with me, the way I played Fortnite

1:04:44.840 --> 1:04:46.400
<v Speaker 2>is I would drop at the very edge of the

1:04:46.440 --> 1:04:47.920
<v Speaker 2>map and then hide.

1:04:48.680 --> 1:04:50.840
<v Speaker 3>I would just like get in a car and get

1:04:50.880 --> 1:04:53.320
<v Speaker 3>the passenger seat and.

1:04:53.360 --> 1:04:56.320
<v Speaker 2>Just tried it and just try to just get to

1:04:56.360 --> 1:04:58.560
<v Speaker 2>where there are like two or three people left and

1:04:58.640 --> 1:05:01.160
<v Speaker 2>hope one killed the other one the storm killed that one.

1:05:01.200 --> 1:05:03.800
<v Speaker 2>But now I'm in the streets, man, I'm in there

1:05:04.200 --> 1:05:07.480
<v Speaker 2>the So I'll tell you where I tend. I'll tell

1:05:07.520 --> 1:05:12.760
<v Speaker 2>you where I tend to drop. There is on I

1:05:12.760 --> 1:05:17.400
<v Speaker 2>guess the bottom of the map. There's a little island

1:05:18.120 --> 1:05:20.360
<v Speaker 2>with a house on it, and that island has a

1:05:20.400 --> 1:05:22.800
<v Speaker 2>bunch of bots in it, and one of them has

1:05:22.840 --> 1:05:25.640
<v Speaker 2>a key card into a safe that has like really

1:05:25.640 --> 1:05:28.560
<v Speaker 2>good weapons. So I try to drop there to kill

1:05:28.560 --> 1:05:31.160
<v Speaker 2>that guy immediately so I can be weaponed up. Or

1:05:31.840 --> 1:05:34.600
<v Speaker 2>at the very top of the map, there's an island,

1:05:34.600 --> 1:05:36.960
<v Speaker 2>but a lot of people drop there because the Star

1:05:37.040 --> 1:05:39.920
<v Speaker 2>Wars guys are there, and if you can kill those

1:05:40.000 --> 1:05:43.200
<v Speaker 2>guys you get these sick weapons. So I go one

1:05:43.200 --> 1:05:46.360
<v Speaker 2>of those two places usually to get the weapons situation,

1:05:46.760 --> 1:05:49.240
<v Speaker 2>and then I crush fools. This is the first I'm

1:05:49.280 --> 1:05:54.360
<v Speaker 2>almost forty years old. I've never played any video game

1:05:54.640 --> 1:05:59.400
<v Speaker 2>other than sports games until this. I never played Halo,

1:05:59.600 --> 1:06:02.600
<v Speaker 2>I never played any of the I guess. I played

1:06:02.640 --> 1:06:06.800
<v Speaker 2>GoldenEye against friends in college, but I never was like

1:06:06.880 --> 1:06:10.880
<v Speaker 2>the first person shooter game ever. But I've gotten into Fortnite.

1:06:10.960 --> 1:06:13.480
<v Speaker 4>Oh, I'm glad you love it, Pops, and I'm happy

1:06:13.560 --> 1:06:16.560
<v Speaker 4>you found that he's landed in a game with one hundred,

1:06:17.040 --> 1:06:19.200
<v Speaker 4>one hundred live players and he's like, let me go

1:06:19.240 --> 1:06:20.720
<v Speaker 4>to the bot and kill it real quick.

1:06:21.320 --> 1:06:24.960
<v Speaker 2>But well, yeah, hit the weapons so I can then

1:06:25.120 --> 1:06:26.360
<v Speaker 2>fight with everyone else.

1:06:27.720 --> 1:06:29.600
<v Speaker 3>Smart. It's just good Stratgy.

1:06:29.600 --> 1:06:33.120
<v Speaker 4>Your Slovenian son has ranked five hundredth in an Overwatch

1:06:33.280 --> 1:06:34.400
<v Speaker 4>five hundreds in the world.

1:06:34.520 --> 1:06:35.160
<v Speaker 3>Okay, by the.

1:06:35.160 --> 1:06:39.600
<v Speaker 2>Way, okay, so I saw that. I need like a

1:06:39.600 --> 1:06:42.600
<v Speaker 2>better fact check on that. But if he's top five

1:06:42.680 --> 1:06:43.160
<v Speaker 2>hundred in.

1:06:43.080 --> 1:06:45.919
<v Speaker 4>The world, that would be crazy, right, Also in the.

1:06:45.840 --> 1:06:47.880
<v Speaker 3>Playoffs, a little bit of a red flag.

1:06:48.680 --> 1:06:51.400
<v Speaker 2>I love him, but that's a bit of a I

1:06:51.400 --> 1:06:54.400
<v Speaker 2>think Overwatch is too popular to be top five hundred

1:06:54.400 --> 1:06:55.200
<v Speaker 2>in the world at.

1:06:55.080 --> 1:07:00.160
<v Speaker 3>It as a side gig. All right, The go to

1:07:00.200 --> 1:07:01.240
<v Speaker 3>Anthony Adams.

1:07:01.680 --> 1:07:04.440
<v Speaker 4>Anthony Adams said, I know you're a great person to

1:07:04.520 --> 1:07:06.920
<v Speaker 4>invite to a wedding, but does the same apply to

1:07:06.960 --> 1:07:10.840
<v Speaker 4>a couple's first baby shower? All right, So we've been

1:07:11.440 --> 1:07:14.680
<v Speaker 4>invite me of these things in substitution, if you know.

1:07:15.240 --> 1:07:18.320
<v Speaker 3>Okay, all right, so this is a great take, all right.

1:07:18.400 --> 1:07:19.840
<v Speaker 3>So two things. One is.

1:07:21.360 --> 1:07:24.560
<v Speaker 2>We've been too busy with the NBA playoffs for me

1:07:24.680 --> 1:07:29.400
<v Speaker 2>to update everyone on this. The whole invite me to

1:07:29.480 --> 1:07:31.439
<v Speaker 2>a wedding because I won't show up and I'll send

1:07:31.440 --> 1:07:36.880
<v Speaker 2>a gift thing. In the last two weeks to Monsey,

1:07:37.720 --> 1:07:39.400
<v Speaker 2>nine invitations have shown up.

1:07:40.440 --> 1:07:41.760
<v Speaker 3>It's now becoming like.

1:07:41.800 --> 1:07:47.200
<v Speaker 2>A potential problem because I don't want to go to

1:07:47.280 --> 1:07:50.880
<v Speaker 2>the registry and some people's stuff on the registry sucks.

1:07:51.400 --> 1:07:54.400
<v Speaker 2>It's like, we need this spatula, and I'm like, what

1:07:54.520 --> 1:07:56.000
<v Speaker 2>type of jerk is getting.

1:07:55.680 --> 1:07:57.400
<v Speaker 4>You a three dollars spatula?

1:07:57.800 --> 1:08:00.640
<v Speaker 2>Like I'm not saying it sucks, like I under standard's like, oh,

1:08:00.720 --> 1:08:03.040
<v Speaker 2>we need this wheel whatever. But I don't want to

1:08:03.080 --> 1:08:05.360
<v Speaker 2>be I don't want to buy a bad gift but

1:08:05.480 --> 1:08:08.720
<v Speaker 2>I also I didn't budget out for so many people

1:08:08.720 --> 1:08:10.880
<v Speaker 2>to be inviting me to their weddings, so we might

1:08:10.920 --> 1:08:13.440
<v Speaker 2>have to do like an NBA lottery style, like I

1:08:13.600 --> 1:08:16.160
<v Speaker 2>draw from all the invitations. I don't know what I'm

1:08:16.160 --> 1:08:19.320
<v Speaker 2>gonna do, but I've got invitations, I bet right now.

1:08:19.360 --> 1:08:21.400
<v Speaker 3>Hold on, let me look, I bet.

1:08:21.280 --> 1:08:24.679
<v Speaker 2>I have an unopened invitation just in my bag right here.

1:08:24.960 --> 1:08:28.479
<v Speaker 4>Let me draft draft lotteries on Sunday. We could do

1:08:28.520 --> 1:08:31.280
<v Speaker 4>it on Tuesday, right, Let's see fifteen.

1:08:31.400 --> 1:08:35.800
<v Speaker 3>This might not this is This is from Leannexa, Kansas.

1:08:36.400 --> 1:08:40.800
<v Speaker 2>Oh well, I mean that's not yeah, oh oh wait,

1:08:40.920 --> 1:08:45.760
<v Speaker 2>hold on, uh oh. This is a thank you for

1:08:45.880 --> 1:08:48.760
<v Speaker 2>a wedding I didn't go to. I'm gonna read this

1:08:48.840 --> 1:08:51.280
<v Speaker 2>on the air. I thought I hadn't even opened this

1:08:51.320 --> 1:08:53.400
<v Speaker 2>because I didn't want to have guilt about not sending

1:08:53.400 --> 1:08:53.800
<v Speaker 2>a gift.

1:08:54.479 --> 1:08:54.679
<v Speaker 3>Nick.

1:08:54.800 --> 1:08:56.960
<v Speaker 2>Unfortunately, I got married before. You claim to be the

1:08:57.040 --> 1:08:59.479
<v Speaker 2>best person invite to a wedding, so this will have

1:08:59.560 --> 1:09:02.439
<v Speaker 2>to do. I'm your biggest fan since your days on

1:09:02.640 --> 1:09:05.880
<v Speaker 2>six ten in Kansas City, shout out. I may be

1:09:06.040 --> 1:09:08.240
<v Speaker 2>the only person who loves the draft more than you,

1:09:08.600 --> 1:09:12.599
<v Speaker 2>as I've done multiple mock drafts. My entire life every year.

1:09:12.920 --> 1:09:15.120
<v Speaker 2>This even helped me plan out my career path where

1:09:15.160 --> 1:09:21.840
<v Speaker 2>I became the Oh wow. I don't know if he

1:09:21.880 --> 1:09:24.160
<v Speaker 2>wants me to say what he does, but he was

1:09:24.240 --> 1:09:28.320
<v Speaker 2>the director of recruiting for a big time university and

1:09:28.320 --> 1:09:31.400
<v Speaker 2>now he's the director of player personnel for another big

1:09:31.439 --> 1:09:35.320
<v Speaker 2>time university. Regardless, I'm a big fan of everything you do.

1:09:35.400 --> 1:09:39.760
<v Speaker 2>Take care, Eric. Shout out to Eric and Mariah. Good

1:09:39.800 --> 1:09:42.679
<v Speaker 2>for them. That's awesome. That wasn't even a wedding invite.

1:09:42.720 --> 1:09:45.559
<v Speaker 2>I thought it was a wedding invite. Let me see

1:09:45.560 --> 1:09:48.160
<v Speaker 2>if I have more in here, Danielle. Are there any

1:09:48.240 --> 1:09:52.920
<v Speaker 2>on the desk over there? I don't know, but they're

1:09:52.960 --> 1:09:54.600
<v Speaker 2>at my job. They're all over the place. So I

1:09:54.600 --> 1:09:57.559
<v Speaker 2>gotta figure that out of what I'm gonna do with that.

1:09:57.640 --> 1:10:03.840
<v Speaker 2>But but Demonse said something accurate. If you're getting married

1:10:03.840 --> 1:10:09.600
<v Speaker 2>in the Los Angeles area, send an invite here for

1:10:09.880 --> 1:10:11.360
<v Speaker 2>Demanse and he'll go.

1:10:12.560 --> 1:10:12.920
<v Speaker 4>I'll go.

1:10:13.200 --> 1:10:15.000
<v Speaker 3>The weddings are fun.

1:10:15.080 --> 1:10:18.000
<v Speaker 2>Demanse was a star at me and his mom's wedding

1:10:18.040 --> 1:10:20.759
<v Speaker 2>a few weeks ago. Some of those pictures are trickling

1:10:20.800 --> 1:10:21.280
<v Speaker 2>in now.

1:10:21.439 --> 1:10:22.000
<v Speaker 3>They're great.

1:10:22.320 --> 1:10:25.880
<v Speaker 2>Demonse will actually attend and be a life of the party.

1:10:27.120 --> 1:10:29.720
<v Speaker 3>So yeah, I don't know that he'll travel far.

1:10:29.800 --> 1:10:32.000
<v Speaker 2>But if you're getting married in the southern California area,

1:10:32.360 --> 1:10:35.280
<v Speaker 2>all right, let's do Gabe's question and then we'll move on.

1:10:36.120 --> 1:10:39.000
<v Speaker 4>Gabe says Nick. Do you really think school played a

1:10:39.040 --> 1:10:42.920
<v Speaker 4>meaningful role, meaningful rolling in the investigation in solving crimes?

1:10:43.400 --> 1:10:46.960
<v Speaker 4>That was all Fred, Velma and Daphne, Scooby and Shaggy.

1:10:47.040 --> 1:10:50.919
<v Speaker 4>Weren't that dialed in. We're not exactly a dialed in amen.

1:10:51.479 --> 1:10:54.040
<v Speaker 3>I you know what I'm gonna disagree. I think it's

1:10:54.080 --> 1:10:54.759
<v Speaker 3>a team effort.

1:10:55.080 --> 1:10:58.720
<v Speaker 2>I think that the I think the fact that they

1:10:58.800 --> 1:11:02.280
<v Speaker 2>had a high on in Shaggy and and a seemingly

1:11:02.479 --> 1:11:06.240
<v Speaker 2>dumb dog in Scooby made the criminals put their let

1:11:06.320 --> 1:11:09.320
<v Speaker 2>their guard down. They're like, these guys aren't gonna get

1:11:09.800 --> 1:11:12.799
<v Speaker 2>or else. You just have a bunch of industrious nerds

1:11:12.960 --> 1:11:15.240
<v Speaker 2>chasing you because they just thought they were a bunch

1:11:15.280 --> 1:11:18.120
<v Speaker 2>of stoners and so they that's how they got caught

1:11:18.200 --> 1:11:22.240
<v Speaker 2>all the time. Obviously, Scooby was a huge part of

1:11:22.320 --> 1:11:26.800
<v Speaker 2>their success. And you guys, you know, defaming the name

1:11:27.479 --> 1:11:35.840
<v Speaker 2>of an all time dog exactly right, And uh, I

1:11:35.880 --> 1:11:38.280
<v Speaker 2>mean it's just ridiculous, Like I don't know how the

1:11:38.800 --> 1:11:41.760
<v Speaker 2>how much was Batman important to the What are we

1:11:41.800 --> 1:11:47.439
<v Speaker 2>talking about? The That would be a fun thing during

1:11:47.640 --> 1:11:54.479
<v Speaker 2>August and all time dog ranking all dogs from all

1:11:54.640 --> 1:11:55.639
<v Speaker 2>forms of media.

1:11:58.840 --> 1:12:01.760
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, I mean we really could. I mean, I'm just

1:12:03.760 --> 1:12:09.080
<v Speaker 3>I'm right now, just like on top five and bottom five.

1:12:09.680 --> 1:12:11.880
<v Speaker 4>Who's the first pick in the draft. Let's do a

1:12:11.960 --> 1:12:13.240
<v Speaker 4>quick one first first pick in the.

1:12:13.320 --> 1:12:18.600
<v Speaker 2>Draft, first pick of the draft. I mean, there's so

1:12:18.760 --> 1:12:20.680
<v Speaker 2>many I'm gonna I don't want to snubb any one.

1:12:20.720 --> 1:12:23.799
