Speaker 2: ready to go. Hour one Dan and the Dan Ege

5
00:00:10,720 --> 00:00:13,920
Speaker 2: Dan Patrick Show. The Minister of Humor, Fritzie, he got Seaton,

6
00:00:14,000 --> 00:00:17,360
Speaker 2: Marv Paulie, yours truly and of course the back room guys.

7
00:00:17,720 --> 00:00:22,079
Speaker 2: Congratulations to the Oklahoma City Thunder. The best regular season team,

8
00:00:22,239 --> 00:00:25,880
Speaker 2: the best postseason team. But the Pacers held on for

9
00:00:25,960 --> 00:00:29,280
Speaker 2: dear life. They pushed it to seven games. But the

10
00:00:29,360 --> 00:00:33,520
Speaker 2: Tyree's Halliburton injury was tough to overcome. We talked about

11
00:00:33,560 --> 00:00:36,479
Speaker 2: it when he injured his calf, and you'll see this

12
00:00:36,760 --> 00:00:41,280
Speaker 2: that the calf injury and the possibility of an achilles injury.

13
00:00:41,560 --> 00:00:44,640
Speaker 2: We talked about that last week. Unfortunately it came to

14
00:00:44,720 --> 00:00:48,080
Speaker 2: fruition and you couldn't help but think of Kevin Durant

15
00:00:48,080 --> 00:00:50,040
Speaker 2: when he got off to a hot start and then

16
00:00:50,120 --> 00:00:53,040
Speaker 2: he blew out his achilles a few years ago. But

17
00:00:53,360 --> 00:00:57,960
Speaker 2: Tyrese Haliburton will remember an incredible postseason run. Also, Shay

18
00:00:58,040 --> 00:01:02,760
Speaker 2: gilgis Alexander not many. This is rarefied air. When you

19
00:01:02,960 --> 00:01:05,640
Speaker 2: put him in there with Michael and Shack. When you're

20
00:01:05,640 --> 00:01:08,880
Speaker 2: going to be the regular season MVP scoring champ. You're

21
00:01:08,880 --> 00:01:11,959
Speaker 2: going to win an NBA title Finals MVP. And he

22
00:01:12,040 --> 00:01:15,160
Speaker 2: did it in an effortless way. He did it in

23
00:01:15,160 --> 00:01:17,840
Speaker 2: an old school way. Now I say old school because

24
00:01:17,880 --> 00:01:20,440
Speaker 2: he doesn't rely on the three point shot. He'll beach

25
00:01:20,520 --> 00:01:24,480
Speaker 2: off the dribble. He's capable of scoring on three different levels.

26
00:01:24,959 --> 00:01:29,520
Speaker 2: But he was efficiently brilliant in the NBA Finals. We'll

27
00:01:29,560 --> 00:01:32,080
Speaker 2: get to your phone calls, best and worst of the weekend.

00:02:22,280 --> 00:02:25,920
Speaker 3: To be what, well, I've got something that could be

46
00:02:25,960 --> 00:02:28,440
Speaker 3: considered a sign of the apocalypse or just very bad

47
00:02:28,520 --> 00:02:29,120
Speaker 3: news for.

48
00:02:29,120 --> 00:02:29,920
Speaker 1: Two people here?

49
00:02:30,040 --> 00:02:34,040
Speaker 3: Okay, Paul and Todd have both submitted the same pole question.

50
00:02:34,600 --> 00:02:39,079
Speaker 1: O man, what happened to Paul? That's right?

51
00:02:39,160 --> 00:02:41,640
Speaker 3: Is Todd coming up or is Paul going down? I

52
00:02:41,960 --> 00:02:43,320
Speaker 3: can't really tell Paul.

53
00:02:44,960 --> 00:02:48,240
Speaker 2: What's the possibility of both questions being good?

54
00:02:50,800 --> 00:02:53,560
Speaker 3: That's for you to decide that. All Righty, the NBA

55
00:02:53,639 --> 00:03:00,000
Speaker 3: Finals was memorable for dot dot dot. Uh, Well, let's see, Paul.

56
00:03:00,200 --> 00:03:05,080
Speaker 3: Options were the first title of this young OKC team,

57
00:03:05,480 --> 00:03:13,240
Speaker 3: SGA cementing himself as a superstar, Pacers fight, Halliburton's injury

58
00:03:14,360 --> 00:03:21,040
Speaker 3: or nothing or nothing? Yes Todd's suggestions where the sitter

59
00:03:21,320 --> 00:03:25,919
Speaker 3: the Oklahoma City winning their first ever title, SGA being

60
00:03:26,000 --> 00:03:30,000
Speaker 3: named the MVP, Halliburton's injury, or Kevin Durant getting traded

61
00:03:30,040 --> 00:03:32,440
Speaker 3: to this from the Suns to the Rockets.

62
00:03:32,760 --> 00:03:41,920
Speaker 2: Hmm with no local ties. I would say Tyree's Halliburton's injury.

63
00:03:43,400 --> 00:03:46,600
Speaker 2: I think his playoff performance leading into the NBA Finals

64
00:03:47,240 --> 00:03:52,960
Speaker 2: and he gave them hope. SGA was you know, brilliant,

65
00:03:54,000 --> 00:03:56,160
Speaker 2: and he also had a you know, a Game seven

66
00:03:56,200 --> 00:03:58,440
Speaker 2: that we haven't had in a long time. You know,

67
00:03:58,560 --> 00:04:01,800
Speaker 2: twenty nine and twelve assists. First player to reach those

68
00:04:01,920 --> 00:04:04,760
Speaker 2: numbers in game seven of an NBA Finals you have

69
00:04:04,800 --> 00:04:07,560
Speaker 2: to go back to nineteen seventy when Wald Fraser went

70
00:04:07,600 --> 00:04:12,520
Speaker 2: for thirty six and nineteen. I just think the injury

71
00:04:12,560 --> 00:04:16,000
Speaker 2: with Halliburton because of all the big shots that he

72
00:04:16,080 --> 00:04:20,000
Speaker 2: had leading into the finals, that he gave them hope,

73
00:04:20,160 --> 00:04:23,360
Speaker 2: and hope went down and didn't get back up last night.

74
00:04:23,400 --> 00:04:26,440
Speaker 2: So I would say, in ten years from now, let's

75
00:04:26,480 --> 00:04:29,039
Speaker 2: put it that way. How about we put a window

76
00:04:29,080 --> 00:04:31,760
Speaker 2: on this. Ten years from now, when we look back

77
00:04:32,160 --> 00:04:37,600
Speaker 2: on this year's NBA Finals, it's probably going to be

78
00:04:37,720 --> 00:04:42,720
Speaker 2: Tyrese Haliburton will remember because of the injury, how they

79
00:04:42,760 --> 00:04:45,760
Speaker 2: had played, they forced at game seven. Okay, see was

80
00:04:45,800 --> 00:04:51,880
Speaker 2: the best team, but I think what the Pacers did

81
00:04:52,480 --> 00:04:57,120
Speaker 2: created more headline conversation than what Oklahoma City did.

82
00:04:57,200 --> 00:05:01,680
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think how we remember this Finals is dependent

83
00:05:01,760 --> 00:05:04,440
Speaker 3: on how both of these teams do the next three years.

84
00:05:06,240 --> 00:05:08,840
Speaker 1: If we go right back to after this.

85
00:05:08,800 --> 00:05:11,760
Speaker 3: Year, if next year we go back to some sort

86
00:05:11,760 --> 00:05:17,200
Speaker 3: of like return cycle of you know, Warriors, Lakers, Celtics,

87
00:05:18,000 --> 00:05:20,640
Speaker 3: you know, whoever win, then don't I don't know what

88
00:05:20,720 --> 00:05:22,600
Speaker 3: we're going to really remember from this one, but if

89
00:05:22,839 --> 00:05:24,880
Speaker 3: the Pacers go on to be greater or the Thunder

90
00:05:24,920 --> 00:05:26,560
Speaker 3: going to keep being greater, it's going to shape how

91
00:05:26,600 --> 00:05:27,560
Speaker 3: this one is remembered.

92
00:05:27,720 --> 00:05:31,120
Speaker 2: But also keep in mind Tyrese Haliburton will probably be

93
00:05:31,200 --> 00:05:36,479
Speaker 2: out all next year, so you know his impact is

94
00:05:36,480 --> 00:05:38,240
Speaker 2: going to be felt next year because he won't be

95
00:05:38,240 --> 00:05:41,560
Speaker 2: able to play. Jason Tatum not able to play for

96
00:05:41,600 --> 00:05:45,880
Speaker 2: the Celtics next year, probably not, so factor those in

97
00:05:46,520 --> 00:05:50,000
Speaker 2: and how that shapes the East because the East is

98
00:05:50,200 --> 00:05:53,160
Speaker 2: really really wide open now, and we don't even know

99
00:05:53,160 --> 00:05:57,800
Speaker 2: if Jannis is going to stay in Milwaukee like all

100
00:05:57,839 --> 00:06:03,200
Speaker 2: of a sudden, Orlando, the Cavaliers, obviously Garland's having toe surgery,

101
00:06:03,279 --> 00:06:06,760
Speaker 2: but they would be the favorites. The Knicks, you know,

102
00:06:06,839 --> 00:06:09,560
Speaker 2: once again, would be in the in the in the

103
00:06:09,600 --> 00:06:12,400
Speaker 2: conversation there. But if you don't have Tatum and you

104
00:06:12,400 --> 00:06:15,360
Speaker 2: don't have Halliburton, and those are the best players on

105
00:06:15,400 --> 00:06:19,960
Speaker 2: the on the best teams right now. East is wide open.

106
00:06:20,160 --> 00:06:24,400
Speaker 2: That's where Yannis might go. H maybe can you help

107
00:06:24,440 --> 00:06:27,280
Speaker 2: me out a little bit here? Can you give me

108
00:06:27,360 --> 00:06:30,360
Speaker 2: something here in Milwaukee. But we'll talk to Chris Mannix

109
00:06:30,400 --> 00:06:34,680
Speaker 2: about this, because I think Mannix gets the feeling that Jannis,

110
00:06:34,760 --> 00:06:38,039
Speaker 2: if he's going anywhere, would end up in San Antonio.

111
00:06:38,320 --> 00:06:41,400
Speaker 2: But Kevin Durant ending up with Houston. You know that

112
00:06:41,560 --> 00:06:44,279
Speaker 2: Cleveland was in this. I'm told at the last minute,

113
00:06:44,279 --> 00:06:46,760
Speaker 2: like there were teams going, hey, we know you got

114
00:06:46,800 --> 00:06:50,240
Speaker 2: to trade him. What's it going to take? And I

115
00:06:50,279 --> 00:06:52,880
Speaker 2: think the Knicks made another run out. Everybody was kind

116
00:06:52,880 --> 00:06:56,560
Speaker 2: of like circling it was. It was a open secret

117
00:06:56,600 --> 00:06:59,159
Speaker 2: that Durant was going to be traded, and the question

118
00:06:59,440 --> 00:07:02,080
Speaker 2: was where's he going to be traded? And it was

119
00:07:02,120 --> 00:07:04,400
Speaker 2: going to be this week because the draft is coming

120
00:07:04,480 --> 00:07:05,520
Speaker 2: up on Wednesday night.

121
00:07:05,800 --> 00:07:06,880
Speaker 1: But we'll talk about that.

122
00:07:07,040 --> 00:07:11,040
Speaker 2: With Durant being traded and Houston, I thought did pretty

123
00:07:11,040 --> 00:07:11,480
Speaker 2: well here.

124
00:07:11,760 --> 00:07:13,160
Speaker 1: You can look at the draft picks.

125
00:07:13,200 --> 00:07:14,880
Speaker 2: I don't look at the draft picks the way I

126
00:07:14,960 --> 00:07:17,480
Speaker 2: used to because it just feels like, eh, and we'll

127
00:07:17,480 --> 00:07:19,160
Speaker 2: give you a I don't know how many second round

128
00:07:19,200 --> 00:07:19,760
Speaker 2: picks you want?

129
00:07:19,800 --> 00:07:20,240
Speaker 1: You want four?

130
00:07:20,360 --> 00:07:23,480
Speaker 2: You won five, go ahead, take whatever you want. And

131
00:07:23,600 --> 00:07:26,160
Speaker 2: Jalen Green, it's weird to be what is he twenty

132
00:07:26,240 --> 00:07:28,920
Speaker 2: three and he averaged you know, over I think he

133
00:07:29,000 --> 00:07:31,239
Speaker 2: might have averaged twenty three points a game. He didn't

134
00:07:31,240 --> 00:07:33,360
Speaker 2: do well in the postseason, and I think there was

135
00:07:33,440 --> 00:07:36,440
Speaker 2: concern with Houston that maybe he is not that number

136
00:07:36,480 --> 00:07:41,240
Speaker 2: one guy. Phoenix Suns are a mess. They really are,

137
00:07:42,480 --> 00:07:45,280
Speaker 2: and they you know, it's not just one year. I

138
00:07:45,320 --> 00:07:48,480
Speaker 2: mean they've been consistent in being a mess because you

139
00:07:48,520 --> 00:07:53,640
Speaker 2: get Bradley Beal. I can only warn these owners in

140
00:07:53,720 --> 00:07:56,320
Speaker 2: GMS so often. If they're not going to listen to me,

141
00:07:56,400 --> 00:07:59,680
Speaker 2: then it's on them. Get a new owner. Matt Eshmia,

142
00:08:00,440 --> 00:08:03,640
Speaker 2: former walk on at Michigan State. All of a sudden,

143
00:08:03,680 --> 00:08:06,640
Speaker 2: you start making decisions. You bring in Durant. You gave

144
00:08:06,720 --> 00:08:11,120
Speaker 2: up a lot to get Durant. Devin Booker. I don't

145
00:08:11,160 --> 00:08:14,200
Speaker 2: are you building around Devin Booker? Like it feels like

146
00:08:14,440 --> 00:08:17,720
Speaker 2: who is anybody going to pass the ball on that team?

147
00:08:18,120 --> 00:08:22,920
Speaker 2: Bradley Beal, Devin Booker and Jalen Green. I don't like that.

148
00:08:23,560 --> 00:08:26,680
Speaker 2: I don't like that at all. But when I saw it.

149
00:08:26,760 --> 00:08:29,920
Speaker 2: I go all right, Durant goes to Houston. I like

150
00:08:30,000 --> 00:08:33,200
Speaker 2: the roster. M a Udoka, the head coach, just got

151
00:08:33,200 --> 00:08:36,640
Speaker 2: a contract extension. It's a young team, but now you

152
00:08:36,840 --> 00:08:39,480
Speaker 2: have a closer. Now you got a guy can go

153
00:08:39,520 --> 00:08:43,560
Speaker 2: get you a bucket, and that's going to make them

154
00:08:43,600 --> 00:08:48,800
Speaker 2: extremely dangerous. It's a young team, aggressive team, good defensive team,

155
00:08:48,920 --> 00:08:51,079
Speaker 2: and now you got a guy crunch time who can

156
00:08:51,160 --> 00:08:54,400
Speaker 2: get you a bucket. Now, granted he's thirty seven, but

157
00:08:54,960 --> 00:08:58,440
Speaker 2: his game is not really predicated on jumping high or

158
00:08:58,520 --> 00:09:02,240
Speaker 2: moving fast. Just feels like he gets to spots and

159
00:09:02,320 --> 00:09:06,600
Speaker 2: he will kill you. But from the perspective of the Rockets,

160
00:09:06,679 --> 00:09:11,600
Speaker 2: I like what they did because it's now now they're

161
00:09:11,600 --> 00:09:15,440
Speaker 2: trying to win a championship where Phoenix, Phoenix is going

162
00:09:15,480 --> 00:09:17,920
Speaker 2: to have to take the wrecking ball, and.

163
00:09:17,840 --> 00:09:20,360
Speaker 1: I can you can't trade Bradley Beal.

164
00:09:20,480 --> 00:09:22,880
Speaker 2: Imagine Lebron and Bradley be are the two guys who

165
00:09:22,880 --> 00:09:25,079
Speaker 2: don't have no trade classes.

166
00:09:33,840 --> 00:09:35,600
Speaker 1: So yeah, you have Bradley Beal and.

167
00:09:35,640 --> 00:09:38,480
Speaker 2: Devin Booker and Jalen Green and I don't know the

168
00:09:39,400 --> 00:09:42,040
Speaker 2: ghost of Steve Nash there, yes, Marvin.

169
00:09:42,200 --> 00:09:43,960
Speaker 4: The crazy part is the Suns were in the finals

170
00:09:43,960 --> 00:09:46,760
Speaker 4: in twenty twenty nine. No, I know how things change

171
00:09:46,800 --> 00:09:49,920
Speaker 4: so fast with a young Devin Booker. If you're thinking

172
00:09:50,040 --> 00:09:52,280
Speaker 4: when they got to the finals, oh, we'll be back.

173
00:09:52,520 --> 00:09:54,400
Speaker 4: That's the scariest part about getting to the finals. You

174
00:09:54,400 --> 00:09:55,880
Speaker 4: don't know which way it's going to go.

175
00:09:56,200 --> 00:09:57,720
Speaker 1: Yeah, you know.

176
00:09:58,600 --> 00:10:01,439
Speaker 2: I brought up this calf issue thing because Dame Lillard

177
00:10:01,440 --> 00:10:06,200
Speaker 2: and Jason Tatum both told Gilbert Arenas that they had

178
00:10:06,280 --> 00:10:10,040
Speaker 2: calf injuries before they told their tore their achilles, and

179
00:10:10,080 --> 00:10:11,880
Speaker 2: that's what happened with Tyree's Haliburton.

180
00:10:13,040 --> 00:10:15,520
Speaker 1: And that's why I wondered, can you put him out there?

181
00:10:15,559 --> 00:10:18,440
Speaker 2: I know he wants to be out there, but you

182
00:10:18,760 --> 00:10:21,040
Speaker 2: have he has to know that there is a risk

183
00:10:21,080 --> 00:10:24,400
Speaker 2: that you're going to you're gonna tear your achilles. Tatum

184
00:10:24,440 --> 00:10:28,040
Speaker 2: and Dame Lillard both had calf injuries and then they

185
00:10:28,040 --> 00:10:33,920
Speaker 2: tore their achilles, and that's what happened with Tyre's Haliburton. Also,

186
00:10:34,040 --> 00:10:41,720
Speaker 2: don't wear the number zero, Dame Lillard zero, Jason Tatum zero,

187
00:10:42,559 --> 00:10:49,120
Speaker 2: Tyre's Halliburton zero. Yikes, who else is wearing zero? We

188
00:10:49,160 --> 00:10:56,040
Speaker 2: got to give them a heads up. Christian Brown, be careful. Well, Okay,

189
00:10:56,280 --> 00:11:00,000
Speaker 2: if he wears zero. Sure. All righty, so the poll question,

190
00:11:00,320 --> 00:11:02,440
Speaker 2: what are we going to remember seeing any other poll

191
00:11:02,520 --> 00:11:04,520
Speaker 2: question for the first hour of the program.

192
00:11:04,960 --> 00:11:06,920
Speaker 3: Yeah, we got one more here for you. Okay, bigger

193
00:11:06,960 --> 00:11:09,400
Speaker 3: mistake trading SGA, Trading the Sonics.

194
00:11:11,040 --> 00:11:16,920
Speaker 1: Well, that owner wanted to move them to Okay C. Yeah,

195
00:11:17,000 --> 00:11:17,720
Speaker 1: so I get that.

196
00:11:18,400 --> 00:11:21,800
Speaker 2: But you go back to when Shay Gilgis was traded.

197
00:11:22,200 --> 00:11:26,240
Speaker 2: Now Sam Presty Oklahoma City GM insisted that SGA was

198
00:11:26,240 --> 00:11:27,920
Speaker 2: going to be in the deal, and I think the

199
00:11:27,960 --> 00:11:30,160
Speaker 2: Clippers were trying to hold on to him. He finished

200
00:11:30,559 --> 00:11:32,720
Speaker 2: sixth in the Rookie of the Year ballot, and he

201
00:11:32,800 --> 00:11:36,040
Speaker 2: averaged only twelve points a game. Anybody who said, well

202
00:11:36,080 --> 00:11:40,160
Speaker 2: I saw this, I think he might be lying, because

203
00:11:40,559 --> 00:11:43,280
Speaker 2: that felt like, all right, you take Paul George, take

204
00:11:43,320 --> 00:11:44,120
Speaker 2: his contract.

205
00:11:44,880 --> 00:11:46,160
Speaker 1: What are you going to give us in return?

206
00:11:46,280 --> 00:11:48,800
Speaker 2: And they had accumulated so many draft picks there in

207
00:11:48,800 --> 00:11:51,960
Speaker 2: Oklahoma City, and all of a sudden, you know, I

208
00:11:52,040 --> 00:11:53,720
Speaker 2: watched Shay Gilgis at Kentucky.

209
00:11:54,040 --> 00:11:54,880
Speaker 1: I can't tell you.

210
00:11:54,920 --> 00:11:58,600
Speaker 2: I remember one play that he had kind of like

211
00:11:58,640 --> 00:12:01,200
Speaker 2: the way he plays nowhere you go, I think I

212
00:12:01,240 --> 00:12:05,040
Speaker 2: can score. I mean, he was just another Kentucky player, Hey,

213
00:12:05,720 --> 00:12:09,560
Speaker 2: you can score, Okay, can get to the hoop. I

214
00:12:09,600 --> 00:12:11,760
Speaker 2: didn't think, oh my god, that guy's gonna be He's

215
00:12:11,760 --> 00:12:15,079
Speaker 2: going to do something that is in rarefied air with

216
00:12:15,160 --> 00:12:18,319
Speaker 2: Kareem and Shaq and Michael Jordan. Imagine that you're on

217
00:12:18,320 --> 00:12:22,480
Speaker 2: that list and he did it. I don't think anybody

218
00:12:22,520 --> 00:12:25,560
Speaker 2: saw that coming, that he would be this great. But this,

219
00:12:25,760 --> 00:12:29,320
Speaker 2: you know, this has been a process, like five six

220
00:12:29,400 --> 00:12:33,240
Speaker 2: years to get to this point. Remember chat Holmgren. As

221
00:12:33,280 --> 00:12:35,319
Speaker 2: soon as they got him, he got hurt in that

222
00:12:35,880 --> 00:12:39,040
Speaker 2: summer All Star game that he was playing in. He's

223
00:12:39,080 --> 00:12:43,160
Speaker 2: had a hip injury. He's obviously injury prone here. But

224
00:12:43,200 --> 00:12:46,280
Speaker 2: you're getting guys and you're going, Okay, nobody wants Alex Caruso.

225
00:12:46,440 --> 00:12:54,960
Speaker 2: We'll take him. Lou Dort, who Jalen Williams who? I mean,

226
00:12:55,360 --> 00:12:58,480
Speaker 2: come on, guy went to Santa Clara. That's where you

227
00:12:58,520 --> 00:13:01,760
Speaker 2: look at scouting, That's where you look at what you

228
00:13:01,920 --> 00:13:05,400
Speaker 2: do and you know down in the lab, and that's

229
00:13:05,440 --> 00:13:08,840
Speaker 2: what Okac has done a wonderful job. And it starts

230
00:13:08,840 --> 00:13:11,280
Speaker 2: with Sam Presty. I think he took over. He was

231
00:13:11,400 --> 00:13:14,520
Speaker 2: twenty eight years of age when he was a GM

232
00:13:14,800 --> 00:13:17,440
Speaker 2: And now what is he forty seven? Still young for

233
00:13:17,559 --> 00:13:20,360
Speaker 2: that job? But you know this is why when we

234
00:13:20,440 --> 00:13:23,719
Speaker 2: talk about the Lakers that you get new ownership. Now

235
00:13:23,720 --> 00:13:25,760
Speaker 2: you can't go out and just buy whoever you want,

236
00:13:26,240 --> 00:13:30,280
Speaker 2: but they're going to help the infrastructure of the Lakers scouting.

237
00:13:30,679 --> 00:13:33,120
Speaker 2: I mean that that's where you beef up. And you

238
00:13:33,120 --> 00:13:35,680
Speaker 2: know that's what OKAC has done. It did a wonderful

239
00:13:35,760 --> 00:13:39,760
Speaker 2: job and should be commended for finding those players who

240
00:13:39,880 --> 00:13:40,440
Speaker 2: do fit in.

241
00:13:40,640 --> 00:13:40,880
Speaker 1: Now.

242
00:13:41,840 --> 00:13:44,960
Speaker 2: The key for OKC as we move forward is shay

243
00:13:45,000 --> 00:13:47,800
Speaker 2: Gilgess is probably going to get a contract that's going

244
00:13:47,880 --> 00:13:52,040
Speaker 2: to pay him eighty million dollars a year. Just start

245
00:13:52,080 --> 00:13:55,960
Speaker 2: there now. Is Chad Hombern going to take less? Is

246
00:13:56,040 --> 00:13:59,680
Speaker 2: Jalen Williams going to Is anybody taking less? To stay

247
00:13:59,720 --> 00:14:04,360
Speaker 2: again to win a championship? As a former NBA champion

248
00:14:04,400 --> 00:14:08,320
Speaker 2: once told me, once I got my ring, I wanted

249
00:14:08,360 --> 00:14:13,880
Speaker 2: my money. That's what happens. I got my ring, now

250
00:14:13,920 --> 00:14:16,720
Speaker 2: I want my money. Look at what happened with the Nuggets,

251
00:14:17,440 --> 00:14:20,000
Speaker 2: those guys, bench players, they got their ring, then they

252
00:14:20,040 --> 00:14:23,640
Speaker 2: wanted their money. It's a natural evolution when you're trying

253
00:14:23,680 --> 00:14:26,760
Speaker 2: to keep these teams together, that's what you have to

254
00:14:26,800 --> 00:14:31,240
Speaker 2: have in place. Is there a commonality that, hey, let's

255
00:14:31,400 --> 00:14:33,880
Speaker 2: do that, Let's continue to do this. We're having fun,

256
00:14:34,200 --> 00:14:37,320
Speaker 2: we're the best team, we're young, we have plenty of

257
00:14:37,360 --> 00:14:42,480
Speaker 2: time to make plenty of money. It sounds altruistic, but

258
00:14:42,520 --> 00:14:46,560
Speaker 2: it doesn't happen that way. Guys are gonna leave, Guys

259
00:14:46,560 --> 00:14:50,880
Speaker 2: are gonna want their money. I understand it. Natural evolution here,

260
00:14:51,320 --> 00:14:53,920
Speaker 2: All right, phone calls, we'll get to those eight seven

261

277
00:15:38,720 --> 00:15:41,360

Speaker 5: have the dumbest takes on sports imaginable. Don't listen to

279

285
00:16:00,040 --> 00:16:04,400
Speaker 2: Shay Gilgis, Alexander joins Kareem, Michael, and Shack the only

286
00:16:04,400 --> 00:16:07,880
Speaker 2: players to lead their team best regular season record in

287
00:16:07,920 --> 00:16:11,880
Speaker 2: the NBA lead the NBA in scoring regular season MVP

288
00:16:12,040 --> 00:16:15,520
Speaker 2: Finals MVP in the same year. Jordan did it three times,

289
00:16:15,920 --> 00:16:19,040
Speaker 2: Kareem and Shaq did it once. That's the category. That's

290
00:16:19,080 --> 00:16:23,280
Speaker 2: the grouping that Shay Gilgis Alexander has joined, also with

291
00:16:23,400 --> 00:16:25,520
Speaker 2: Jalen Williams, and I know they're trying to make this

292
00:16:25,640 --> 00:16:31,240
Speaker 2: a Jordan Pippin combo. Slow Down, Slow Down, But Shay

293
00:16:31,280 --> 00:16:34,120
Speaker 2: Gilgis and Jalen Williams combined to score three hundred and

294
00:16:34,160 --> 00:16:39,600
Speaker 2: seventy seven points, sixth most by any duo in NBA history,

295
00:16:40,200 --> 00:16:43,480
Speaker 2: The most sense Kyrie and Lebron combined for three ninety

296
00:16:43,520 --> 00:16:48,280
Speaker 2: eight back in twenty sixteen. Stat of the day, stat

297
00:16:48,280 --> 00:16:51,400

Speaker 1: Day here comes that what stat of the.

300
00:16:55,960 --> 00:17:03,080
Speaker 2: Day here is Shay Guilder just Alexander on his historical season.

301
00:17:04,560 --> 00:17:08,080
Speaker 8: It's hard to believe that I'm part of that group.

302
00:17:08,200 --> 00:17:11,879
Speaker 8: It's hard to even fathom that I'm that type of

303
00:17:11,880 --> 00:17:17,480
Speaker 8: basketball player. Sometimes as a kid, you dream, and every

304
00:17:17,520 --> 00:17:20,240
Speaker 8: kid dreams, but you don't never really know if it's

305
00:17:20,240 --> 00:17:23,199
Speaker 8: going to come true. And I'm just glad and happy

306
00:17:23,200 --> 00:17:25,840
Speaker 8: that my dreams have been able to come true. And

307
00:17:26,359 --> 00:17:28,119
Speaker 8: that's a thank you to everyone that's been in my corner.

308
00:17:28,119 --> 00:17:29,600
Speaker 8: That's how me get here. I wouldn't be able to

309
00:17:29,640 --> 00:17:33,280
Speaker 8: done without them. They know exactly who they are, so yeah,

310

00:17:38,640 --> 00:17:43,439
Speaker 2: And he's what twenty five, twenty six and you know

313
00:17:43,480 --> 00:17:45,679

00:17:46,160 --> 00:17:47,160
Speaker 1: He's very mature.

315
00:17:47,560 --> 00:17:49,920
Speaker 2: I mean you get that sense when when you listen

00:17:50,040 --> 00:17:54,399
Speaker 2: to him, you see him how he reacts with his teammates.

317
00:17:55,480 --> 00:17:58,760
Speaker 2: He has a great wherewithal presence. He reads the room

318
00:17:58,800 --> 00:18:01,720
Speaker 2: really well, all right, best and worst of the weekend.

319

Speaker 9: fan base and all the deserved people in the organization.

328
00:18:31,560 --> 00:18:33,600
Speaker 1: But but but.

329
00:18:36,119 --> 00:18:39,359
Speaker 9: You know, we always hear whenever the Lakers or like

330
00:18:39,560 --> 00:18:42,120
Speaker 9: you know, like the Miami Heat, a big market team

331
00:18:42,240 --> 00:18:44,920
Speaker 9: is in it. Everyone's always like, when's the little guy

332
00:18:44,960 --> 00:18:47,119
Speaker 9: going to get the shot? Get a small market in

333
00:18:47,200 --> 00:18:50,960
Speaker 9: their small market teams matter. This was a small market

334
00:18:51,000 --> 00:18:55,760
Speaker 9: Finals viewership was down about twenty percent with the ratings,

335
00:18:56,000 --> 00:18:58,400
Speaker 9: and it kind of seems you mentioned it last week

336
00:18:58,440 --> 00:19:01,760
Speaker 9: when the Lakers sale was announce You never want to

337
00:19:01,800 --> 00:19:04,960
Speaker 9: announce big news during the NBA Finals. You don't allow

338
00:19:05,080 --> 00:19:07,920
Speaker 9: that to overshadow the finals. And we had not one,

339
00:19:08,000 --> 00:19:12,000
Speaker 9: but two stories with Kevin Durant being traded before Game seven. Now,

340
00:19:12,000 --> 00:19:14,120
Speaker 9: I get Kevin Durant was into the career, but still

341
00:19:14,160 --> 00:19:14,840
Speaker 9: big story.

342
00:19:15,400 --> 00:19:19,560
Speaker 10: Did the NBA itself kind of be like, eh, you know, it's.

343
00:19:19,800 --> 00:19:23,639
Speaker 9: Small market finals. Anyway, you boys have a great week.

344
00:19:23,680 --> 00:19:25,480
Speaker 1: You gots take care of Thank you, Gus.

345
00:19:25,920 --> 00:19:28,520
Speaker 2: In fact, as soon as it happened with Durant being

346
00:19:28,560 --> 00:19:31,320
Speaker 2: traded and then Marvin sent me a TEXI goes, how

347
00:19:31,359 --> 00:19:33,800
Speaker 2: do you think David Stern would have reacted to this

348
00:19:33,920 --> 00:19:37,760
Speaker 2: in previous years? He wouldn't have been happy. But somebody

349
00:19:37,800 --> 00:19:41,480
Speaker 2: broke the story on the Lakers, and you know Sham's

350
00:19:41,920 --> 00:19:44,960
Speaker 2: you know, broke the story. Maybe that wasn't supposed to

351
00:19:45,000 --> 00:19:49,680
Speaker 2: come out until this week, but you know, the Durant trade,

352
00:19:49,840 --> 00:19:52,800
Speaker 2: we knew it was going to happen. Maybe somebody broke

353
00:19:52,840 --> 00:19:55,280
Speaker 2: that ahead of schedule, but it had to happen, you know,

354
00:19:55,520 --> 00:19:58,680
Speaker 2: today or tomorrow with the draft coming up, it would

355
00:19:58,720 --> 00:20:00,680
Speaker 2: feel like you would want to know where you stand

356
00:20:01,200 --> 00:20:02,320
Speaker 2: with your draft picks.

357
00:20:02,800 --> 00:20:05,080
Speaker 1: But yeah, I was surprised.

358
00:20:05,840 --> 00:20:08,520
Speaker 2: And if we have the Commissioner on again anytime soon,

359
00:20:08,560 --> 00:20:11,320
Speaker 2: I'll ask him about that because he was there with

360
00:20:11,440 --> 00:20:15,600
Speaker 2: David Stern. He worked with David Stern, And I know

361
00:20:15,760 --> 00:20:18,440
Speaker 2: for a fact that David Stern did not want any

362
00:20:18,560 --> 00:20:22,840
Speaker 2: news during the NBA Finals other than the NBA Finals.

363
00:20:23,080 --> 00:20:27,760
Speaker 2: He told me that point blank one time, Patrick, no

364
00:20:27,920 --> 00:20:32,040
Speaker 2: other news. I said, well, what if somebody break? Patrick,

365
00:20:32,480 --> 00:20:37,160
Speaker 2: no other news? I said, all right, so lo and behold.

366
00:20:38,359 --> 00:20:43,320
Speaker 2: Bowles end up winning. And I was on SportsCenter after

367
00:20:43,359 --> 00:20:46,640
Speaker 2: the game and we had breaking news that the Orlando

368
00:20:46,760 --> 00:20:50,360
Speaker 2: Magic had a new head coach. And I heard from

369
00:20:50,480 --> 00:20:56,080
Speaker 2: David Stern after that. Patrick, I go, it wasn't my story.

370
00:20:56,840 --> 00:21:02,320
Speaker 2: I thought, I told you, I go, Alderdge broke the news. Yes,

371
00:21:02,400 --> 00:21:04,119
Speaker 2: point I do want to go counter on this a

372
00:21:04,119 --> 00:21:04,560
Speaker 2: little bit.

373
00:21:04,640 --> 00:21:06,920
Speaker 11: Everyone on social media saying it's oh the NBA, it's

374
00:21:06,960 --> 00:21:09,440
Speaker 11: bad for the NBA to lose focus on the finals.

375
00:21:09,680 --> 00:21:12,119
Speaker 11: They didn't lose one ratings point because of the Lakers

376
00:21:12,200 --> 00:21:15,800
Speaker 11: story or the Kevin Durant story. It's actually possible they

377
00:21:15,800 --> 00:21:18,160
Speaker 11: gained ratings points because you may tune into the NBA

378
00:21:18,200 --> 00:21:20,800
Speaker 11: coverage to hear about the Lakers sale or hear about

379
00:21:20,800 --> 00:21:23,760
Speaker 11: the Durant trade. So maybe a casual, casual fan or

380
00:21:23,800 --> 00:21:25,240
Speaker 11: a fan of the Suns may say, I'm going to

381
00:21:25,240 --> 00:21:27,119
Speaker 11: see what they say on the pregame show or whatever

382
00:21:27,200 --> 00:21:29,359
Speaker 11: may be. They didn't lose one ratings point because of

383
00:21:29,400 --> 00:21:30,000
Speaker 11: these side stories.

384
00:21:30,080 --> 00:21:32,440
Speaker 2: Oh I'm sure the Mothership loved this because they had

385
00:21:32,440 --> 00:21:35,560
Speaker 2: something other than you know, the thunder and the pacers

386
00:21:35,600 --> 00:21:39,520
Speaker 2: to talk about that you had other stories that more

387
00:21:39,560 --> 00:21:42,560
Speaker 2: people would be interested in. I mean the Kevin Durant

388
00:21:42,760 --> 00:21:46,760
Speaker 2: story that felt like that was front burner for the

389
00:21:46,840 --> 00:21:54,040
Speaker 2: last ten days on ESPN, like they were almost praying, begging,

390
00:21:54,480 --> 00:21:57,359
Speaker 2: wishful reporting to get him to the Knicks and then

391
00:21:57,359 --> 00:21:59,400
Speaker 2: all of a sudden, well it might be san Antonio

392
00:21:59,480 --> 00:22:03,400
Speaker 2: might be huge. Jon Uh, Well the Knick should still

393
00:22:03,400 --> 00:22:06,800
Speaker 2: be in you know, involved in them. But here is

394
00:22:06,880 --> 00:22:10,280
Speaker 2: Kevin Durant yesterday about being traded.

395
00:22:11,200 --> 00:22:13,280
Speaker 12: No people could just hang your career in the balance

396
00:22:13,400 --> 00:22:15,520
Speaker 12: like that and just choose what they want to do

397
00:22:15,560 --> 00:22:18,160
Speaker 12: with your careers and nerve record feeling, but being able

398
00:22:18,200 --> 00:22:20,440
Speaker 12: to kind of dictate what you want to do and

399
00:22:20,480 --> 00:22:23,360
Speaker 12: then being with a team that values you and I'm.

400
00:22:23,280 --> 00:22:25,240
Speaker 7: Looking forward to it having people are going to hold

401
00:22:25,280 --> 00:22:26,760
Speaker 7: on to that dictate what you want to do.

402
00:22:26,880 --> 00:22:28,840
Speaker 1: Did you have a handle this most definitely?

403
00:22:29,920 --> 00:22:32,320
Speaker 12: I mean they actually get where I wanted to go,

404
00:22:32,440 --> 00:22:34,160
Speaker 12: some of my destinations I gave it to him.

405
00:22:34,200 --> 00:22:35,080
Speaker 1: Man, here we are.

406
00:22:35,720 --> 00:22:39,679
Speaker 2: That's Kay Adams asking Kevin Durant at the Fanatics Fest

407
00:22:39,760 --> 00:22:41,560
Speaker 2: yesterday in New York yes morning.

408
00:22:41,760 --> 00:22:44,240
Speaker 4: I was there with Maria yesterday and as soon as

Speaker 4: the news dropped, everyone wait, wait, wait, wait.

Speaker 4: And he talks about Kevin Durant and stops his interview

414
00:22:55,640 --> 00:22:57,679
Speaker 4: with some other celebrity. I don't know who it was,

415
00:22:58,000 --> 00:23:02,119
Speaker 4: but it shut everything down yesterday. Yeah, with all these celebrities,

416
00:23:03,320 --> 00:23:05,280
Speaker 4: and he was there, and Kevin dury was in the

417
00:23:05,320 --> 00:23:08,719
Speaker 4: building and everyone runs over to where he's at just

418
00:23:08,720 --> 00:23:10,960
Speaker 4: to kind of get the news and get first of all,

419
00:23:11,200 --> 00:23:13,560
Speaker 4: he found out with Taylor Rooks and then Caves does

420
00:23:13,600 --> 00:23:16,159

423
00:23:20,720 --> 00:23:21,359
Speaker 4: going to get traded.

424
00:23:22,359 --> 00:23:22,479
Speaker 11: Uh.

425
00:23:22,640 --> 00:23:25,400
Speaker 1: Jeff in Massachusetts, Hi Jeff, what's on your mind today?

426
00:23:27,680 --> 00:23:27,880
Speaker 9: Hey?

427
00:23:27,920 --> 00:23:28,080
Speaker 1: Dan?

428
00:23:28,800 --> 00:23:34,080
Speaker 10: First time, long time six three, feisty one seventy. I

429
00:23:34,200 --> 00:23:37,359
Speaker 10: got a fast and worst of the weekend and a

430
00:23:37,480 --> 00:23:40,720
Speaker 10: quick father advice for you if I may, so, I

431
00:23:40,800 --> 00:23:43,240
Speaker 10: have a newborn son. I work as a teacher, first

432
00:23:43,240 --> 00:23:45,840
Speaker 10: full week off of school, so I got to enjoy that.

433
00:23:45,840 --> 00:23:48,320
Speaker 10: That was the best part. With the newborn. We went

434
00:23:48,359 --> 00:23:50,359
Speaker 10: out to get your book. We were going to stop

435
00:23:50,400 --> 00:23:53,000
Speaker 10: at two different libraries, get his card, get my card,

436
00:23:53,080 --> 00:23:56,040
Speaker 10: everything signed up. They didn't have your book at one

437
00:23:56,080 --> 00:23:58,320
Speaker 10: where they said, so we decided to go to a

438
00:23:58,320 --> 00:24:00,760
Speaker 10: third one. And on the lay to the third one

439
00:24:00,800 --> 00:24:03,119
Speaker 10: to get your book, the car broke down, so I

440
00:24:03,240 --> 00:24:06,359
Speaker 10: was stuck in ninety degree weather on my effort to

441
00:24:06,400 --> 00:24:09,560
Speaker 10: get the Dan Patrick's book. So that was definitely the

442
00:24:09,600 --> 00:24:11,800
Speaker 10: worst of the weekend. We did successfully get it, so

443
00:24:11,880 --> 00:24:14,560
Speaker 10: hopefully this is worth the read. My expectations are very

444
00:24:14,680 --> 00:24:18,439
Speaker 10: high now. And the question I have is just, you know,

445
00:24:18,520 --> 00:24:20,560
Speaker 10: in general, what would be a good piece of advice

446
00:24:20,600 --> 00:24:23,320
Speaker 10: you think I could give for my son just moving forward,

447
00:24:24,160 --> 00:24:26,879
Speaker 10: you know, for when he gets older, starts sports, about

448
00:24:27,000 --> 00:24:29,760
Speaker 10: just focusing on, you know, the big picture of everything.

449
00:24:29,760 --> 00:24:31,439
Speaker 10: I know that's a kind of a grand one, but

450
00:24:31,480 --> 00:24:34,280
Speaker 10: I figure you can you know, you know everything well.

451
00:24:35,200 --> 00:24:39,680
Speaker 2: By the way, Jeff, send send the book here self, address,

452
00:24:39,720 --> 00:24:41,000
Speaker 2: stamped envelope.

453
00:24:40,560 --> 00:24:46,240
Speaker 1: And all autograph that for you as far. I mean,

454
00:24:46,280 --> 00:24:47,159
Speaker 1: that's a big question.

455
00:24:47,800 --> 00:24:51,800
Speaker 2: I would say, just focus on being a good person,

456
00:24:52,560 --> 00:24:56,159
Speaker 2: doing good things. I always tell my kids it doesn't

457
00:24:56,160 --> 00:25:00,720
Speaker 2: cost anything to be nice. Wherever you go, Oh, you

458
00:25:00,840 --> 00:25:05,920
Speaker 2: say something to somebody, you help somebody, you ask somebody,

459
00:25:05,960 --> 00:25:08,960
Speaker 2: whatever it is, doesn't cost anything to be nice. And

460
00:25:09,359 --> 00:25:12,359
Speaker 2: I would focus on that. If something's so simple, but

461
00:25:12,880 --> 00:25:17,040
Speaker 2: it'll take you a long way. Craig and fort Wayne. Hi, Craig,

462
00:25:17,080 --> 00:25:18,119

00:25:27,320 --> 00:25:30,280
Speaker 13: of the East as they beat New York, Cleveland, Boston.

466
00:25:30,840 --> 00:25:32,600
Speaker 13: They all had a front five, but not.

467
00:25:32,600 --> 00:25:33,160
Speaker 9: A back five.

468
00:25:34,040 --> 00:25:37,359
Speaker 13: And in the West Oklahoma instead of beating Minnesota, Dallas

469
00:25:37,400 --> 00:25:39,639
Speaker 13: and the Lakers, they all had star power.

470
00:25:40,080 --> 00:25:41,240
Speaker 9: Do you invest in.

471
00:25:41,160 --> 00:25:45,439
Speaker 13: Your front five or your second five if you truly

472
00:25:45,440 --> 00:25:48,159
Speaker 13: want to win a championship in the NBA today?

473
00:25:48,359 --> 00:25:51,159
Speaker 2: Thanks, Well, you still have to have your marquee guys.

474
00:25:51,400 --> 00:25:53,480
Speaker 2: I mean, Denver could have a great bench, but if

475
00:25:53,480 --> 00:25:57,359
Speaker 2: you don't have Joker there or Jamal Murray, you're not

476
00:25:57,400 --> 00:26:00,480
Speaker 2: going to win a title. You still have to have

477
00:26:01,040 --> 00:26:04,719
Speaker 2: Chad holmgrun An SGA now you might lose lou Dort,

478
00:26:04,880 --> 00:26:09,359
Speaker 2: you might lose a couple of these peripheral players, but

479
00:26:09,480 --> 00:26:12,600
Speaker 2: are you able to keep those guys on the bench.

480
00:26:12,680 --> 00:26:15,240
Speaker 2: The guys on the bench are the ones who want money.

481
00:26:15,440 --> 00:26:17,439
Speaker 2: They're the ones that's like, hey, we're not starting, but

482
00:26:17,480 --> 00:26:19,840
Speaker 2: we want to go someplace where we can start. You know,

483
00:26:19,960 --> 00:26:23,960
Speaker 2: Gabe Vincent wants money. Hey, I wont my title, now

484
00:26:23,960 --> 00:26:26,600
Speaker 2: I want my money. Yeah, and you have a finite

485
00:26:26,640 --> 00:26:29,920
Speaker 2: amount of time to earn this money. Okay, I win

486
00:26:29,960 --> 00:26:32,360
Speaker 2: another championship, what does that mean?

487
00:26:33,000 --> 00:26:34,040
Speaker 1: Or I win a third?

488
00:26:34,520 --> 00:26:37,800
Speaker 2: Okay, but I'm not the star. I want to go

489
00:26:37,840 --> 00:26:39,720
Speaker 2: where I can play. I want to go where I

490
00:26:39,720 --> 00:26:43,760
Speaker 2: can make money and if we happen to win, great.

491
00:26:44,480 --> 00:26:46,680
Speaker 2: I mean that's where players wanted to go to New England.

492
00:26:47,280 --> 00:26:50,320
Speaker 2: They wanted to go win a championship and then leave.

493
00:26:51,480 --> 00:26:53,560
Speaker 2: But a lot of those guys that already made their money,

494
00:26:53,920 --> 00:26:57,040
Speaker 2: but they wanted to have that ship. Okay, see is

495
00:26:57,080 --> 00:26:59,679
Speaker 2: a young team. I'm looking at their draft picks that

496
00:26:59,680 --> 00:27:02,959
Speaker 2: they have. So they have two first round picks this

497
00:27:03,040 --> 00:27:07,359
Speaker 2: year courtesy of the Heat and the Clippers twenty six.

498
00:27:07,480 --> 00:27:12,880
Speaker 2: They have a top four protected pick from Philadelphia. Wow,

499
00:27:14,480 --> 00:27:18,280
Speaker 2: they have a top eight protected pick from Utah in

500
00:27:18,320 --> 00:27:20,520
Speaker 2: twenty twenty six. They have their own pick in twenty

501
00:27:20,600 --> 00:27:24,880
Speaker 2: twenty six. Twenty twenty seven, they have a top four

502
00:27:24,960 --> 00:27:30,479
Speaker 2: protected pick from Denver. They have another pick swap with

503
00:27:30,560 --> 00:27:35,159
Speaker 2: the Clippers. They twenty twenty eight, they have a swap

504
00:27:35,200 --> 00:27:40,040
Speaker 2: with Dallas. They own their twenty twenty nine pick, their

505
00:27:40,200 --> 00:27:45,560
Speaker 2: twenty thirty pick, they're twenty I mean wow, So just

506
00:27:45,640 --> 00:27:51,240
Speaker 2: imagine they end up with that Philadelphia pick, because Philadelphia

507
00:27:51,280 --> 00:27:54,280
Speaker 2: is probably not going to be very good, and then

508
00:27:54,440 --> 00:27:58,000
Speaker 2: you might be kind of reinvesting in your roster with

509
00:27:58,040 --> 00:28:01,040
Speaker 2: somebody from the outside coming in, and maybe you don't

510
00:28:01,080 --> 00:28:04,159
Speaker 2: keep some of these players, but you got to. You

511
00:28:04,240 --> 00:28:06,239
Speaker 2: got to keep the core the best you can do.

512
00:28:06,520 --> 00:28:09,520
Speaker 2: Keep the core. It's just how do you fill in

513
00:28:09,800 --> 00:28:11,280
Speaker 2: the rest of that gray area?

514
00:28:11,400 --> 00:28:14,440
Speaker 11: Yeah, Paul, Yeah, this summer, okay, see, won't lose anybody

515
00:28:14,440 --> 00:28:17,760
Speaker 11: from that core. The twenty twenty six offseason, lou Dort

516
00:28:17,760 --> 00:28:20,560
Speaker 11: they have a team option, Hartenstein a team option. The

517
00:28:20,640 --> 00:28:23,440
Speaker 11: tough ones are Chet Holgrin and Jaylen Williams are restricted

518
00:28:23,440 --> 00:28:26,800
Speaker 11: free agents next summer. Going back to grabbing players for

519
00:28:26,840 --> 00:28:29,879
Speaker 11: your bench, they grabbed Isaiah Hertenstein from the Knicks. I

520
00:28:29,920 --> 00:28:32,560
Speaker 11: remember he's that breakout all purpose player from the next

521
00:28:32,800 --> 00:28:35,760
Speaker 11: They overpaid for him. They gave him three years eighty

522
00:28:35,840 --> 00:28:38,800
Speaker 11: seven million Hartenstein last summer, and I was like, that's

523
00:28:38,800 --> 00:28:41,040
Speaker 11: a lot of money for a rotation guy.

524
00:28:41,120 --> 00:28:43,280
Speaker 1: But look how it worked out. But he's a tough

525
00:28:43,320 --> 00:28:46,880
Speaker 1: guy and he's what you want. He doesn't care.

526
00:28:47,200 --> 00:28:52,239
Speaker 2: He just sets picks, plays hard defense, rebounds. Those are

527
00:28:52,280 --> 00:28:55,520
Speaker 2: the guys that are so invaluable, Like they go, don't

528
00:28:55,560 --> 00:28:59,400
Speaker 2: worry about me. I'm fine with doing this Like Dennis Rodman,

529
00:28:59,480 --> 00:29:04,200
Speaker 2: never need the ball, didn't care. It's like, I'll play

530
00:29:04,240 --> 00:29:07,240
Speaker 2: defense in all rebound You guys take care of the

531
00:29:07,280 --> 00:29:07,800
Speaker 2: other stuff.

532
00:29:07,880 --> 00:29:11,080
Speaker 4: Yes, Marvin, and I think Hartenstein his contract is a

533
00:29:11,160 --> 00:29:12,880
Speaker 4: lesson to a lot of guys that are looking for

534
00:29:12,920 --> 00:29:15,239
Speaker 4: a big contract. You could just say, hey, look at

535
00:29:15,240 --> 00:29:17,520
Speaker 4: what Hartenstein's done. He's making thirty million dollars a year

536
00:29:17,840 --> 00:29:20,960
Speaker 4: just by doing this really, really well. So you don't

537
00:29:20,960 --> 00:29:23,000
Speaker 4: worry about stats, because we have people to do that.

538
00:29:23,080 --> 00:29:25,200
Speaker 4: If you do your role really well, you'll get paid.

539
00:29:25,880 --> 00:29:30,760
Speaker 1: Andy and Rhode Island, Hi, Andy went Sonny Ryne, Good.

Speaker 14: thousand dollars, came home a happy man, and it took

557
00:30:16,320 --> 00:30:20,200
Speaker 14: me back to Ocean's eleven when Brad Pitt Perfaly put

558
00:30:20,240 --> 00:30:23,320
Speaker 14: coins inside the flop machine walked away. The lady went up,

559
00:30:23,480 --> 00:30:25,760
Speaker 14: put her coin in and hit the jackpot. It was

560
00:30:25,800 --> 00:30:28,040
Speaker 14: so great because the entire time I was like, oh,

Speaker 14: hope you guys continue to have a great week.

565
00:30:36,040 --> 00:30:40,440
Speaker 2: To stay cool, all right, Andy, sounds like Turtle from Entourage,

566
00:30:40,880 --> 00:30:42,000
Speaker 2: sounds like Jerry Ferrara.

567
00:30:43,320 --> 00:30:46,600
Speaker 1: We had a good weekend, man christ and Syracuse.

568
00:30:46,720 --> 00:30:51,760
Speaker 15: Hi, Chris, Hey, Thanks Dan as always. Hey, I wanted

569
00:30:51,760 --> 00:30:53,520
Speaker 15: to weigh in on the first pole you guys were

570
00:30:53,560 --> 00:30:55,880
Speaker 15: chopping up a little bit talking about was what I'm

571
00:30:55,880 --> 00:30:57,760
Speaker 15: going to remember about yesterday? And I think for me

572
00:30:57,800 --> 00:31:00,800
Speaker 15: it's going to be the Durrant trade. You know, Houston's

573
00:31:00,800 --> 00:31:02,680
Speaker 15: gone down this path like a lot of teams with

574
00:31:02,720 --> 00:31:05,280
Speaker 15: whether it was with McGrady or Berkley.

575
00:31:05,360 --> 00:31:06,160
Speaker 10: And I don't know.

576
00:31:06,200 --> 00:31:10,360
Speaker 15: You mortgage your future for a one to two year window,

577
00:31:10,440 --> 00:31:12,560
Speaker 15: and you know you look at like this year, all

578
00:31:12,600 --> 00:31:16,240
Speaker 15: the top teams in the West, Oklahoma City, Denver, Minnesota, Houston,

579
00:31:16,560 --> 00:31:20,040
Speaker 15: and then the East, the Knicks, Pacers, Boston, Cleveland, none

580
00:31:20,080 --> 00:31:22,000
Speaker 15: of them have an eightying star on them. And I

581
00:31:22,720 --> 00:31:25,000
Speaker 15: just think that formula does not work.

582
00:31:25,960 --> 00:31:31,320
Speaker 2: Okay, I mean you're running a risk with Durant. This

583
00:31:31,400 --> 00:31:35,400
Speaker 2: is his fifteen be thirty seven. He did average twenty six,

584
00:31:37,680 --> 00:31:41,600
Speaker 2: but having I want him to kind of have a

585
00:31:41,600 --> 00:31:45,160
Speaker 2: strategic twenty point score. Like, he doesn't have to give

586
00:31:45,160 --> 00:31:48,640
Speaker 2: me twenty six, twenty seven. I want him to be strategic.

587
00:31:49,080 --> 00:31:52,120
Speaker 2: When we need you, we can go to you and

588
00:31:52,280 --> 00:31:55,000
Speaker 2: let those young guys. Sometimes when you bring in somebody

589
00:31:55,200 --> 00:31:58,680
Speaker 2: late in their career, you know, you stump the growth

590
00:31:58,680 --> 00:32:01,880
Speaker 2: of the younger players. I hope that that nucleus is

591
00:32:01,920 --> 00:32:05,240
Speaker 2: able to continue to evolve and then Houston's going to

592
00:32:05,240 --> 00:32:08,880
Speaker 2: be formidable. But we talked about this during the postseason.

593
00:32:09,840 --> 00:32:13,960
Speaker 2: Sometimes you're on a field trip when you're a young team,

594
00:32:14,040 --> 00:32:16,000
Speaker 2: You're like, oh, let's go, We're going to go to

595
00:32:16,040 --> 00:32:19,800
Speaker 2: the Museum of Modern Art. Okay, We're just going to

596
00:32:19,880 --> 00:32:22,200
Speaker 2: walk around and look at things and then go back home.

597
00:32:23,080 --> 00:32:26,719
Speaker 2: And then other times you become the art. You become

598
00:32:26,760 --> 00:32:29,560
Speaker 2: what other people want to come and watch instead of

599
00:32:29,720 --> 00:32:30,920
Speaker 2: we're just doing a field trip.

600
00:32:30,960 --> 00:32:31,200
Speaker 9: Here.

601
00:32:31,440 --> 00:32:33,440
Speaker 2: You get into the playoffs, you get knocked out, and

602
00:32:33,440 --> 00:32:35,520
Speaker 2: you go, Okay, we're going to learn from this. Okay,

603
00:32:35,600 --> 00:32:39,520
Speaker 2: see learn from this. Now Houston has to learn from this.

604
00:32:39,840 --> 00:32:43,360
Speaker 2: Houston has to go, Okay, we were really good during

605
00:32:43,360 --> 00:32:47,280
Speaker 2: the regular season and we can go toe to toe,

606
00:32:47,680 --> 00:32:51,880
Speaker 2: but in a seven game series, who are we? That's

607
00:32:51,880 --> 00:32:55,120
Speaker 2: what you need to find out. And then you can

608
00:32:55,240 --> 00:33:00,280
Speaker 2: count on people, Okay, see New certain times, certain situations,

609
00:33:00,320 --> 00:33:01,320
Speaker 2: you can count on him.

610
00:33:01,560 --> 00:33:01,720
Speaker 9: You know.

611
00:33:01,880 --> 00:33:06,480
Speaker 2: Caruso was wonderful in his role, lou Dort wonderful in

612
00:33:06,560 --> 00:33:09,800
Speaker 2: his role. Chad Holm, like all of them understood their role,

613
00:33:10,240 --> 00:33:14,760
Speaker 2: but they had been in these situations. Even Caruso, he

614
00:33:14,800 --> 00:33:17,560
Speaker 2: won a title in the bubble, had this to say

615
00:33:17,720 --> 00:33:19,000
Speaker 2: after winning last night.

616
00:33:20,440 --> 00:33:24,280
Speaker 7: The championship is a championship, but there were seventy people

617
00:33:24,320 --> 00:33:25,680
Speaker 7: in the gym when you won your first one.

618
00:33:26,080 --> 00:33:27,440
Speaker 6: How much better does this one feel?

Speaker 9: Yeah?

620
00:33:27,720 --> 00:33:28,960
Speaker 1: Now I got a real one. I don't know if

621
00:33:29,000 --> 00:33:29,800
Speaker 1: you can say anything.

622
00:33:31,720 --> 00:33:34,080
Speaker 16: Yeah, I think just because of the way the team

623
00:33:34,200 --> 00:33:37,240
Speaker 16: is constructed now versus the team I had in twenty twenty,

624
00:33:37,880 --> 00:33:40,440
Speaker 16: Like it was much harder with this team just because

625
00:33:40,480 --> 00:33:41,719
Speaker 16: of the experience.

626
00:33:42,280 --> 00:33:45,960
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's the key. But Caruso winning a title in

627
00:33:46,000 --> 00:33:48,760
Speaker 2: the bubble now, as he said, I got a legitimate

628

00:35:22,120 --> 00:35:25,319
Speaker 2: getting the support you should with a great poll like that.

653
00:35:25,960 --> 00:35:28,359
Speaker 11: I it was my first thought, but I was like

654
00:35:28,480 --> 00:35:30,360
Speaker 11: that it has to be trot so the way you

655
00:35:30,400 --> 00:35:32,440

Speaker 1: Had an NBA quiz.

664
00:36:02,560 --> 00:36:05,640
Speaker 2: I don't know what said quiz is because Paul is

665
00:36:05,680 --> 00:36:07,960
Speaker 2: the host of the NBA Quiz game.

666
00:36:08,040 --> 00:36:12,239

667
00:36:12,280 --> 00:36:14,719
Speaker 11: the Houston Rockets, which will be his fifth team. We

668
00:36:14,800 --> 00:36:17,640
Speaker 11: do not count Seattle and okay, see has two different teams,

669
00:36:17,960 --> 00:36:20,600
Speaker 11: so he'll be on his fifth team. He's going to

670
00:36:20,640 --> 00:36:24,480
Speaker 11: be a Hall of Famer. Clearly the most teams an

671
00:36:24,600 --> 00:36:27,040
Speaker 11: NBA Hall of Famer has played for in his career.

672
00:36:27,239 --> 00:36:29,280
Speaker 11: I need the name of the person and the amount

673
00:36:29,320 --> 00:36:33,200
Speaker 11: of teams. I'm gonna make Marvin go last, because Marvin

674
00:36:33,280 --> 00:36:34,680
Speaker 11: is usually good at these NBA games.

675
00:36:35,239 --> 00:36:42,160
Speaker 3: Who would I go first? Seton, I'm gonna say Vince Carter.

676
00:36:42,960 --> 00:36:43,560
Speaker 1: He played for.

677
00:36:44,680 --> 00:36:47,440
Speaker 3: My official number is a gajillion teams.

678
00:36:47,920 --> 00:36:51,799
Speaker 11: You're off on the number, but Vince Carter is correct.

679
00:36:51,960 --> 00:36:52,959
Speaker 1: Good poll.

680
00:36:53,080 --> 00:36:54,520
Speaker 11: Seedon's a big Vince Carter guy.

681
00:36:55,320 --> 00:36:57,279
Speaker 3: He should be the answer to every good polk question.

682
00:36:57,440 --> 00:37:00,720
Speaker 3: Is Vince Carter or when it's not him, it's Allan Iverson.

683
00:37:00,960 --> 00:37:03,560
Speaker 11: He had a season where he played four games for Sacramento,

684
00:37:03,600 --> 00:37:06,000
Speaker 11: which put him over the top among the Hall of

685
00:37:06,040 --> 00:37:09,759
Speaker 11: Famers who played for seven teams, Adrian Dantley, Bob McAdoo,

687
00:37:15,640 --> 00:37:21,279
Speaker 2: All right, that's your NBA quiz. Buy seat lunch too,

688
00:37:22,080 --> 00:37:23,719
Speaker 2: all right, I'll buy seat and lunch.

689
00:37:24,239 --> 00:37:24,600
Speaker 1: Yes.

690
00:37:25,480 --> 00:37:28,840
Speaker 2: Marshall in South Carolina, Good morning, Marshall. What's on your

Speaker 18: to y'all or watch y'all every single morning, and y'all

697
00:37:51,440 --> 00:37:53,560
Speaker 18: are the best part of my day and I really

00:37:53,600 --> 00:37:54,279

699
00:37:54,600 --> 00:37:57,640

Speaker 2: a smile on your face.

701
00:37:59,280 --> 00:38:02,200
Speaker 1: And is there a.

702
00:38:02,120 --> 00:38:04,600
Speaker 2: Part of the show that you really like, or a

703
00:38:04,760 --> 00:38:06,799
Speaker 2: favorite Dan end that you really like.

704
00:38:06,880 --> 00:38:12,800
Speaker 18: Marshall in Fritzy, the Minister of Humor always has interesting

705
00:38:12,840 --> 00:38:15,680
Speaker 18: things to say. But I'm a long time listener and

706
00:38:15,960 --> 00:38:19,400
Speaker 18: I just all SAT of the Day. I mean, that's classic.

707
00:38:19,480 --> 00:38:21,800
Speaker 18: I've been trying to write my own SAT of the

708
00:38:21,880 --> 00:38:24,319
Speaker 18: Day jingle, but I'm a little slow with my head

709
00:38:24,320 --> 00:38:24,760
Speaker 18: in jury.

710
00:38:24,800 --> 00:38:27,080
Speaker 1: So take your time. Take your time.

711
00:38:27,120 --> 00:38:29,560
Speaker 2: You got two and a half years, Okay, and thank

712
00:38:29,600 --> 00:38:30,800
Speaker 2: you for the phone call Marshall.

713
00:38:30,880 --> 00:38:33,240
Speaker 1: Yes, John, No, that's a sweet sentiment.

714
00:38:33,320 --> 00:38:35,920
Speaker 7: I'm glad he looks forward to the shows. It's always

715
00:38:35,920 --> 00:38:38,080
Speaker 7: great when you hear those kind of uplifting things. That's

716
00:38:38,080 --> 00:38:40,799
Speaker 7: something we're saying or doing Mix of your day bet

717
00:38:40,840 --> 00:38:42,840
Speaker 7: when they're going through some tough times.

718
00:38:42,960 --> 00:38:43,320
Speaker 1: Okay.

719
00:38:43,520 --> 00:38:44,400
Speaker 6: That always makes me figure.

720
00:38:44,440 --> 00:38:46,399
Speaker 7: Not a lot of jobs offer that in careers where

721
00:38:46,400 --> 00:38:48,520
Speaker 7: you can affect people like that on a daily basis.

722
00:38:48,520 --> 00:38:49,320
Speaker 6: So that's pretty awesome.

723
00:38:49,440 --> 00:38:55,040
Speaker 1: Well, thank you, Ton Seaton. Would you update the poll results?

724
00:38:55,560 --> 00:38:58,759
Speaker 11: Sometimes Fritzy is like a chat GPT response to it.

725
00:38:58,920 --> 00:39:02,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think, yeah, Like I didn't necessarily need that,

726
00:39:03,000 --> 00:39:03,560
Speaker 2: but I didn't.

727
00:39:03,600 --> 00:39:05,000
Speaker 1: I just I know, I just.

728
00:39:04,880 --> 00:39:06,640
Speaker 6: Wanted to share. I had a little emotional moment there

729
00:39:06,640 --> 00:39:07,800
Speaker 6: when I hear those things.

730
00:39:07,880 --> 00:39:11,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, it just feels like that's what a computer would

731
00:39:11,520 --> 00:39:14,240
Speaker 2: spit out, like minimum kindness.

732
00:39:15,960 --> 00:39:18,120
Speaker 6: It does take the sensitivity away from what I was

733
00:39:18,160 --> 00:39:18,880
Speaker 6: trying to share.

734
00:39:18,920 --> 00:39:20,759
Speaker 1: But it's okay, it's all right.

735
00:39:21,640 --> 00:39:23,799
Speaker 2: You just were ready to say something and I didn't

736
00:39:23,880 --> 00:39:24,919
Speaker 2: know what you were going to say.

737
00:39:24,920 --> 00:39:25,840
Speaker 1: To add to that, for.

738
00:39:25,880 --> 00:39:28,200
Speaker 6: The record, I was that was that was heartfelt from

739
00:39:28,560 --> 00:39:30,799
Speaker 6: my head. I wasn't. I didn't google that and read

740
00:39:30,960 --> 00:39:31,719
Speaker 6: like words from a.

741
00:39:31,960 --> 00:39:34,000
Speaker 1: Oh no, I could tell such thing. Yeah, I could

742
00:39:34,000 --> 00:39:36,799
Speaker 1: tell Seaton, would you update the poll results in me?

743
00:39:38,000 --> 00:39:39,000
Speaker 1: I would be happy too, Dan.

744
00:39:39,840 --> 00:39:43,640
Speaker 3: This NBA Finals was memorable for Oklahoma City's first title,

745
00:39:44,000 --> 00:39:47,880
Speaker 3: SGA becoming a star, the Haliburton injury, or the Durant trade.

746
00:39:48,400 --> 00:39:51,520
Speaker 3: Right now, Terry's Haliburton's injury has fifty four percent of

747
00:39:51,560 --> 00:39:54,280
Speaker 3: that vote, followed by the Thunder's first title.

748
00:39:54,600 --> 00:39:58,360
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think it's it's Tyree's Halliburton. With everything that

749
00:39:58,440 --> 00:40:01,520
Speaker 2: happened in the playoffs and certain with the injury, he

750
00:40:01,760 --> 00:40:04,080
Speaker 2: had an incredible you know, when you start to look

751
00:40:04,120 --> 00:40:07,879
Speaker 2: at this, both teams come away you know, we don't

752
00:40:07,920 --> 00:40:12,360
Speaker 2: look you know, down upon the Pacers like they played hard,

753
00:40:12,440 --> 00:40:16,600
Speaker 2: they were good vibes. You had a great storyline, that

754
00:40:17,520 --> 00:40:21,960
Speaker 2: communal atmosphere that you had in Indianapolis, and it was great,

755
00:40:22,200 --> 00:40:24,040
Speaker 2: and they went toe to toe. You went to a

756
00:40:24,160 --> 00:40:27,600
Speaker 2: seventh game. You were the biggest underdog in the last

757
00:40:27,680 --> 00:40:32,239
Speaker 2: twenty five years. A lot of positives there. You can

758
00:40:32,280 --> 00:40:35,399
Speaker 2: only hope though, that Tyree's Haliburton is able to come

759
00:40:35,440 --> 00:40:39,360
Speaker 2: back and be the player and add to the player

760
00:40:39,560 --> 00:40:42,399
Speaker 2: that we saw, but probably going to miss half the year.

761
00:40:43,840 --> 00:40:47,480
Speaker 2: That's the bummer with this because you're looking at it.

762
00:40:47,719 --> 00:40:50,680
Speaker 2: You would have looked at Indiana a lot differently starting

763
00:40:50,760 --> 00:40:55,880
Speaker 2: next season because then they're involved in the favorites. Now,

764
00:40:56,000 --> 00:41:00,360
Speaker 2: I do have favorites for DraftKings. Just sent this to me,

765
00:41:01,120 --> 00:41:03,719
Speaker 2: and I think you'll be surprised where the Pacers are

766
00:41:03,840 --> 00:41:07,399
Speaker 2: on this list. That's called a tease. I'll tell you

767
00:41:07,480 --> 00:41:09,160
Speaker 2: that coming up in about.

768
00:41:10,520 --> 00:41:15,320
Speaker 11: Buy you lunch for that tea teasers say.

769
00:41:16,760 --> 00:41:20,240
Speaker 1: Say it you kids out.

770
00:41:20,080 --> 00:41:25,280
Speaker 2: There, Yes, kids, that that's called a tease. One hour

771
00:41:25,360 --> 00:41:28,200
Speaker 2: in the books, two more to go. Gilbert Arenas, one

772
00:41:28,200 --> 00:41:30,759
Speaker 2: of our favorites, will join us coming up. More of

773
