I mean, 88 00:04:14,360 --> 00:04:16,719 Speaker 4: team is kind of the wrong word there. But do 89 00:04:16,760 --> 00:04:19,359 Speaker 4: you like watching country versus country or do you like 90 00:04:19,400 --> 00:04:21,480 Speaker 4: watching just sort of your team that you root for. 91 00:04:22,920 --> 00:04:26,680 Speaker 3: I think you spice it up occasionally with international id 92 00:04:26,800 --> 00:04:29,600 Speaker 3: like the Olympics. I like that kind of competition, And 93 00:04:29,640 --> 00:04:32,600 Speaker 3: I am curious about the All Star Weekend with US 94 00:04:32,680 --> 00:04:33,599 Speaker 3: versus the world. 95 00:04:34,560 --> 00:04:38,000 Speaker 4: Yeah, I love the international part of it, like for 96 00:04:38,040 --> 00:04:40,839 Speaker 4: some reason, and I'm not sure why, but I was watching. 97 00:04:41,400 --> 00:04:44,800 Speaker 4: I was surprised to see the Italian hockey team. I 98 00:04:44,839 --> 00:04:46,720 Speaker 4: was like, oh, dang, Italy's got an hockey team. This 99 00:04:46,760 --> 00:04:49,280 Speaker 4: is great, this is awesome. You know, I think they 100 00:04:49,320 --> 00:04:51,599 Speaker 4: got crushed the game that I watched, but it was 101 00:04:51,600 --> 00:04:54,159 Speaker 4: still a ton of fun. Like, all right, let's go tell. 102 00:04:54,080 --> 00:04:56,200 Speaker 2: Yeah, team USA over Latvia. 103 00:04:56,400 --> 00:04:59,479 Speaker 3: Yesterday, as Dylan was pointing out on the Gambling podcast, 104 00:04:59,520 --> 00:05:03,480 Speaker 3: team say giving three and a half to Latvia, and 105 00:05:03,600 --> 00:05:06,320 Speaker 3: Dylan of course took the three and a half and 106 00:05:06,400 --> 00:05:09,520 Speaker 3: Latvia ended up losing since the US won five to one. 107 00:05:09,920 --> 00:05:11,920 Speaker 7: It was a juicy line, Dan and I bit hard. 108 00:05:12,000 --> 00:05:13,560 Speaker 7: It was one one going into the second. 109 00:05:14,360 --> 00:05:16,479 Speaker 2: I'll say, yeah, it's a lot of hockey left to 110 00:05:16,480 --> 00:05:18,960 Speaker 2: be played, a lot of hockey, yes, Marvin. 111 00:05:18,680 --> 00:05:21,800 Speaker 8: Yeah, I'm an international guy watching Nicola Jokic have that 112 00:05:21,920 --> 00:05:25,280 Speaker 8: much passion because he's playing for Serbia. Yeah, he doesn't 113 00:05:25,279 --> 00:05:28,120 Speaker 8: have that much passion, play no disrespect playing for Denver. 114 00:05:28,720 --> 00:05:30,599 Speaker 8: So it didn't mean as much to him as winning 115 00:05:30,760 --> 00:05:32,560 Speaker 8: the championship in Denver. Didn't mean as much of him 116 00:05:32,560 --> 00:05:35,120 Speaker 8: as winning a bronze for his home country. 117 00:05:34,880 --> 00:05:38,200 Speaker 3: Right, Yeah, And people pointed that out and they're like 118 00:05:38,520 --> 00:05:42,200 Speaker 3: what and I go, Okay. Understand he didn't grow up 119 00:05:42,279 --> 00:05:46,120 Speaker 3: thinking the NBA winning a championship. He probably thought about 120 00:05:46,160 --> 00:05:48,719 Speaker 3: winning a gold medal for his country or winning something 121 00:05:48,720 --> 00:05:51,400 Speaker 3: internationally for his country. And to be able to do 122 00:05:51,440 --> 00:05:55,000 Speaker 3: that in the Olympics with players you probably grew up with, 123 00:05:56,000 --> 00:05:59,320 Speaker 3: you know, throughout your junior high, high school days. You 124 00:05:59,400 --> 00:06:01,800 Speaker 3: end up winning a bronze medal, that's a that's a 125 00:06:01,880 --> 00:06:05,839 Speaker 3: huge deal. These are his friend's teammates growing up, the 126 00:06:05,839 --> 00:06:08,719 Speaker 3: people he plays with in Denver. You know, they come 127 00:06:08,760 --> 00:06:12,880 Speaker 3: and go. They're kind of co workers. All right, So 128 00:06:13,480 --> 00:06:15,719 Speaker 3: what other poll questions do we have for the first hour? 129 00:06:15,800 --> 00:06:15,960 Speaker 2: Yeah? 130 00:06:16,000 --> 00:06:17,720 Speaker 4: I think sticking with the Olympics for a minute too, 131 00:06:17,720 --> 00:06:19,800 Speaker 4: that the USA game had a couple of hockey game 132 00:06:19,839 --> 00:06:21,360 Speaker 4: had a couple of goals called back. I think that 133 00:06:21,480 --> 00:06:23,560 Speaker 4: was pretty controversial. I don't think that hockey fans are 134 00:06:23,600 --> 00:06:25,680 Speaker 4: too happy about that. This has been sort of a 135 00:06:25,720 --> 00:06:27,400 Speaker 4: controversial Olympics so far. 136 00:06:27,880 --> 00:06:29,000 Speaker 2: I didn't realize this. 137 00:06:29,080 --> 00:06:32,720 Speaker 4: There's been a bunch of little stories that's kind of like, individually, 138 00:06:32,760 --> 00:06:36,400 Speaker 4: they're not all necessarily great or super controversial, but when 139 00:06:36,400 --> 00:06:38,480 Speaker 4: you start adding them all up, it's like dang, there's 140 00:06:38,480 --> 00:06:40,240 Speaker 4: been kind of a story or two a day. 141 00:06:41,000 --> 00:06:44,800 Speaker 2: Well, you had I guess it's called crotchgate. Accurate. 142 00:06:45,600 --> 00:06:49,080 Speaker 3: You had the biathlete who confessed to cheating on his 143 00:06:49,279 --> 00:06:50,240 Speaker 3: ex girlfriend. 144 00:06:51,760 --> 00:06:55,520 Speaker 2: Was that one, like, dude, what are you doing? Wild? 145 00:06:56,000 --> 00:07:00,400 Speaker 4: That just feel terrible because it cheated up my girlfriend months. 146 00:07:00,240 --> 00:07:01,000 Speaker 2: Ago or something. 147 00:07:01,839 --> 00:07:04,080 Speaker 3: Well, he found the love of his life his gold 148 00:07:04,120 --> 00:07:06,720 Speaker 3: medals six months ago, but then cheated on her three 149 00:07:06,720 --> 00:07:11,160 Speaker 3: months ago and then ended up telling everybody, telling the 150 00:07:11,160 --> 00:07:13,960 Speaker 3: world that he cheated on her, but he would love 151 00:07:14,000 --> 00:07:14,560 Speaker 3: to have her pa. 152 00:07:14,600 --> 00:07:17,080 Speaker 4: And then her reply is great, thanks for making that 153 00:07:17,160 --> 00:07:21,440 Speaker 4: all public information. Really appreciate that apology not accepted. 154 00:07:21,800 --> 00:07:27,880 Speaker 3: You also have the scoring scandal or controversy with figure skating. 155 00:07:28,280 --> 00:07:31,640 Speaker 3: Whenever there's judges involved, that's when it gets a little 156 00:07:31,680 --> 00:07:35,160 Speaker 3: dicey for me open to interpretation. And then you have 157 00:07:36,160 --> 00:07:38,920 Speaker 3: this judge from this country, and then all of a sudden, 158 00:07:38,920 --> 00:07:43,600 Speaker 3: you got a controversy. Ukrainian athlete was kicked out of 159 00:07:43,680 --> 00:07:46,960 Speaker 3: the Olympics for wanting to wear a helmet honoring fellow 160 00:07:47,080 --> 00:07:52,560 Speaker 3: athletes killed in the invasion of their country. The IOC 161 00:07:52,960 --> 00:07:56,920 Speaker 3: said that this was not about the messaging. It's literally 162 00:07:57,000 --> 00:08:01,280 Speaker 3: about the rules and the regulations. I see decals on 163 00:08:01,440 --> 00:08:05,440 Speaker 3: helmets all the time, it feels like, but maybe this 164 00:08:05,680 --> 00:08:09,640 Speaker 3: was a political statement there in the IFC. Of course, 165 00:08:09,840 --> 00:08:12,720 Speaker 3: nothing political to see here. But Mike Tarico will join 166 00:08:12,800 --> 00:08:15,200 Speaker 3: us in the final hour of the program. He's had 167 00:08:15,240 --> 00:08:17,880 Speaker 3: a busy week doing the Super Bowl and now hosting 168 00:08:18,240 --> 00:08:23,120 Speaker 3: the Winter Olympics. The latest attempt to curb tanking, the 169 00:08:23,240 --> 00:08:26,760 Speaker 3: NBA handed down fines to the pacers in Jazz yesterday. 170 00:08:27,120 --> 00:08:30,720 Speaker 3: And I don't know if this is related to us 171 00:08:30,760 --> 00:08:33,439 Speaker 3: in the media talking about this the last couple of days, 172 00:08:34,280 --> 00:08:38,080 Speaker 3: because this tanking has been around this season. I don't 173 00:08:38,120 --> 00:08:39,880 Speaker 3: know if it was like, all right, we got to 174 00:08:39,920 --> 00:08:42,400 Speaker 3: do something before we go into the All Star weekend. 175 00:08:42,440 --> 00:08:45,120 Speaker 3: That was my read on this, whether it's true or not. 176 00:08:45,640 --> 00:08:49,640 Speaker 3: But you had Utah, that's a half million dollar fine 177 00:08:50,440 --> 00:08:54,120 Speaker 3: Indiana one hundred thousand dollars. Go back to twenty eighteen 178 00:08:54,440 --> 00:08:58,040 Speaker 3: when we had then owner mas mAbs owner Mark cuban 179 00:08:58,120 --> 00:09:01,440 Speaker 3: On and it costing five hundred thousand dollars when he 180 00:09:01,559 --> 00:09:05,199 Speaker 3: admitted to me that they kind of had front office 181 00:09:05,280 --> 00:09:10,200 Speaker 3: tanking and the NBA did not think too keenly on 182 00:09:10,280 --> 00:09:13,400 Speaker 3: that cost him a half million dollars. The Jazz were 183 00:09:13,400 --> 00:09:17,080 Speaker 3: fined one hundred thousand dollars for sitting Lorie Marketing in 184 00:09:17,200 --> 00:09:21,400 Speaker 3: multiple games. So the discipline is public, the headline's loud, 185 00:09:21,440 --> 00:09:26,040 Speaker 3: but the behavior didn't change and probably won't change. If 186 00:09:26,040 --> 00:09:29,480 Speaker 3: you have that great talent that's possibly there for the lottery, 187 00:09:29,880 --> 00:09:33,560 Speaker 3: it's going to continue. Really, that's the core issue that 188 00:09:34,320 --> 00:09:37,880 Speaker 3: the league may mean business, but intent and impact are 189 00:09:37,920 --> 00:09:42,600 Speaker 3: not the same. And until losing no longer effects the payoff, 190 00:09:43,000 --> 00:09:47,600 Speaker 3: the fines will probably continue here. But here's a team 191 00:09:47,640 --> 00:09:50,080 Speaker 3: worth three and a half billion dollars, So what's a 192 00:09:50,120 --> 00:09:54,120 Speaker 3: five hundred thousand dollars fine? And as we move forward, 193 00:09:54,160 --> 00:09:57,840 Speaker 3: you probably have four players in this draft who will 194 00:09:57,880 --> 00:10:01,400 Speaker 3: probably come in and contribute, if not start right away. 195 00:10:01,600 --> 00:10:04,199 Speaker 8: Yes, Marvin and optics don't look much better for the 196 00:10:04,320 --> 00:10:06,640 Speaker 8: Jazz because Jaron Jackson Junior is now out for the 197 00:10:06,679 --> 00:10:09,520 Speaker 8: rest of the season. Whether it's true or not, whether 198 00:10:09,520 --> 00:10:11,560 Speaker 8: he's really injured or not, it just doesn't look good 199 00:10:11,559 --> 00:10:12,240 Speaker 8: for the Jazz. 200 00:10:12,679 --> 00:10:15,240 Speaker 3: Well, they got fined in a game where they sat 201 00:10:15,440 --> 00:10:19,400 Speaker 3: Jaron Jackson Junior and Laurie Markinen and they won the game. 202 00:10:20,040 --> 00:10:23,000 Speaker 3: They sat them for the fourth quarter and that's what 203 00:10:23,120 --> 00:10:25,640 Speaker 3: the owner of the Jazz that any we got fined 204 00:10:25,880 --> 00:10:30,360 Speaker 3: in a game we won. But I think if we were, 205 00:10:30,640 --> 00:10:33,440 Speaker 3: you know, giving some truth serum here, everybody would be 206 00:10:33,440 --> 00:10:39,480 Speaker 3: admitting that Washington is tanking, Sacramento is probably tanking. Indiana's tanking, 207 00:10:40,240 --> 00:10:45,760 Speaker 3: the Jazz are tanking. So the Pacers tanking, Yes, Marvin. 208 00:10:45,440 --> 00:10:48,040 Speaker 8: Well, Sacramento doesn't need much help in tanking. They're already 209 00:10:48,080 --> 00:10:49,680 Speaker 8: bad enough. But I get what you mean, though. 210 00:10:49,760 --> 00:10:53,240 Speaker 2: I thought that they were back a couple of years ago. 211 00:10:53,320 --> 00:10:56,240 Speaker 2: I go Sacramento, I think, is my team this year? Oh, 212 00:10:56,440 --> 00:11:00,280 Speaker 2: you were on the Tyrese Haliburn. You loved him Sacerman. 213 00:11:00,400 --> 00:11:02,480 Speaker 2: You were like, man, that guy's a star. And what 214 00:11:02,600 --> 00:11:04,840 Speaker 2: happens two years later he gets traded and he takes 215 00:11:04,840 --> 00:11:05,880 Speaker 2: the Paces to the finals. 216 00:11:05,920 --> 00:11:07,720 Speaker 5: I know, it just. 217 00:11:08,040 --> 00:11:10,600 Speaker 3: Feels like and then I have a friend who lives 218 00:11:10,640 --> 00:11:13,760 Speaker 3: in the Bay Area and he'll go to Sacramento to 219 00:11:13,840 --> 00:11:17,120 Speaker 3: watch a game, depending on the team, the visiting team 220 00:11:17,200 --> 00:11:21,240 Speaker 3: coming into town, like they act nice to the owner 221 00:11:21,559 --> 00:11:23,640 Speaker 3: so they can get good seats, so they can get 222 00:11:23,679 --> 00:11:26,079 Speaker 3: good seats to watch the other team play. 223 00:11:26,360 --> 00:11:26,640 Speaker 9: All right? 224 00:11:26,720 --> 00:11:29,280 Speaker 3: Eight seven to seven to three DP show email address 225 00:11:29,360 --> 00:11:32,319 Speaker 3: DP at Danpatrick dot com Twitter handle at dp show. 226 00:11:32,600 --> 00:11:36,560 Speaker 3: By the way, I have the MVP odds according to 227 00:11:36,640 --> 00:11:39,920 Speaker 3: DraftKings for the All Star Game, Victor wimben Yama. He 228 00:11:40,160 --> 00:11:44,280 Speaker 3: is the big favorite to be the MVP. I saw 229 00:11:44,280 --> 00:11:49,360 Speaker 3: where Robert or now I'm paraphrasing here, the former Laker 230 00:11:49,400 --> 00:11:53,360 Speaker 3: great and Rockets great didn't put Victor in his top 231 00:11:53,440 --> 00:11:56,439 Speaker 3: five players in the NBA. Am I reading that right? 232 00:11:56,480 --> 00:11:57,280 Speaker 3: Fritzy didn't. 233 00:11:57,280 --> 00:11:59,240 Speaker 6: That's I've read the same thing that he's not listed 234 00:11:59,280 --> 00:12:01,400 Speaker 6: among his top five. He doesn't consider him a top 235 00:12:01,400 --> 00:12:02,400 Speaker 6: five NBA player in't it? 236 00:12:02,480 --> 00:12:05,800 Speaker 2: Yeah? All right, well, all right, if you do top five, 237 00:12:06,440 --> 00:12:13,360 Speaker 2: you're going to do Joker, Sga, Jannis. 238 00:12:14,320 --> 00:12:15,920 Speaker 5: Out of side, out of mind. I'm gonna go Wemby. 239 00:12:17,400 --> 00:12:19,760 Speaker 3: Well, no, I'm just saying, let me find are there 240 00:12:19,800 --> 00:12:23,000 Speaker 3: five guys I'd put in front of him? And I 241 00:12:23,040 --> 00:12:26,720 Speaker 3: would say no, But Robert Dorri said that Victor is 242 00:12:27,040 --> 00:12:32,080 Speaker 3: too inconsistent, and I'm like, okay, twenty two. Yeah, but 243 00:12:32,440 --> 00:12:34,920 Speaker 3: I would say he's one of the top five players 244 00:12:34,960 --> 00:12:38,280 Speaker 3: in the sport and he'll be your MVP favorite. Coming 245 00:12:38,360 --> 00:12:42,199 Speaker 3: up this weekend, Chris and Syracuse leads us off. Good morning, Chris, 246 00:12:42,200 --> 00:12:43,000 Speaker 3: what's on your mind? 247 00:12:43,320 --> 00:12:44,760 Speaker 10: Hey, Thanks day, I've got a couple of things to 248 00:12:44,760 --> 00:12:47,560 Speaker 10: throw at you. Hey, A lot of talk yesterday yesterday 249 00:12:47,559 --> 00:12:49,600 Speaker 10: about how to spice up the All Star weekend. Now, 250 00:12:49,640 --> 00:12:51,959 Speaker 10: I know you can't do this during the All Star weekend, 251 00:12:52,280 --> 00:12:55,400 Speaker 10: but I remember during the seventies, at halftime on Sunday 252 00:12:55,400 --> 00:12:57,800 Speaker 10: afternoon game of the week, which was the only game 253 00:12:57,840 --> 00:13:00,200 Speaker 10: of the week they used to have. It was eight 254 00:13:00,440 --> 00:13:03,200 Speaker 10: one on one games, and it was an elimination tournament 255 00:13:03,240 --> 00:13:06,400 Speaker 10: like the NCAA between NBA stars, and it wasn't by 256 00:13:06,480 --> 00:13:09,080 Speaker 10: position like I think. I remember once Calvin Murphy was 257 00:13:09,120 --> 00:13:12,040 Speaker 10: going against Connie Hawkins. It was first to tend by 258 00:13:12,080 --> 00:13:15,079 Speaker 10: one's hack court outside. I used to love it. And also, 259 00:13:15,280 --> 00:13:18,520 Speaker 10: some people are complaining that the Wizards let Anthony Davis 260 00:13:18,520 --> 00:13:21,040 Speaker 10: have Michael Jordan's number twenty three. I'm like, come on, 261 00:13:21,160 --> 00:13:23,080 Speaker 10: it's not like the Bulls let him have it, and 262 00:13:23,120 --> 00:13:27,400 Speaker 10: I would guess mj couldn't care less. And lastly, logistically 263 00:13:27,559 --> 00:13:31,440 Speaker 10: it's certainly possible. I wonder if John and Illinois and 264 00:13:31,559 --> 00:13:35,720 Speaker 10: rich in Chicago go to the same anger management class 265 00:13:35,760 --> 00:13:39,640 Speaker 10: and at this week's meeting, the therapist is probably saying, 266 00:13:39,960 --> 00:13:42,560 Speaker 10: who the heck is Dan Patrick. 267 00:13:42,640 --> 00:13:46,560 Speaker 2: Thank you, Chris. Yeah, I'm getting roffed up in Illinois, 268 00:13:46,800 --> 00:13:48,800 Speaker 2: staying in my lane. I don't like you. I know, 269 00:13:48,960 --> 00:13:49,880 Speaker 2: Illinois didn't like it. 270 00:13:49,880 --> 00:13:53,439 Speaker 4: Apparently not Chicago Land Greater Chicago Land area doesn't like that. 271 00:13:53,559 --> 00:13:57,439 Speaker 2: Yeah, Chicago liked me, you know during the Jordan years 272 00:13:57,480 --> 00:13:58,480 Speaker 2: when I was there or there. 273 00:13:58,559 --> 00:14:05,120 Speaker 3: Yeah, when I was there, I covered Michael. Let me 274 00:14:05,240 --> 00:14:08,360 Speaker 3: see Eric in Washington. Then we'll take a break.

I mean, 494 00:25:17,840 --> 00:25:22,480 Speaker 3: imagine if you're Utah and you're going to get aj Debanza. 495 00:25:23,359 --> 00:25:25,440 Speaker 3: He might be the best player you know in the 496 00:25:25,520 --> 00:25:28,560 Speaker 3: sport or college wise, and you're going to get him, 497 00:25:29,040 --> 00:25:30,640 Speaker 3: plug him into the lineup right away. 498 00:25:31,600 --> 00:25:34,240 Speaker 7: We've seen teams get jobbed by the lottery. Oh yeah, 499 00:25:34,280 --> 00:25:36,000 Speaker 7: so it's like it's not a proven science. 500 00:25:36,160 --> 00:25:37,240 Speaker 2: No, No, it's not. 501 00:25:37,480 --> 00:25:41,639 Speaker 3: Look at Dallas getting Cooper flag Curtis in Illinois, Hi, Curtis, 502 00:25:41,720 --> 00:25:42,400 Speaker 3: what's on your mind? 503 00:25:45,119 --> 00:25:45,680 Speaker 2: Morn to DP? 504 00:25:46,320 --> 00:25:49,480 Speaker 18: No hate from Illinois today for me or hopefully anybody else. 505 00:25:49,640 --> 00:25:52,239 Speaker 18: But I don't have a fix of the NBA All 506 00:25:52,320 --> 00:25:54,199 Speaker 18: Star Game because I. 507 00:25:54,200 --> 00:25:55,240 Speaker 5: Don't know what you do. 508 00:25:55,440 --> 00:25:57,960 Speaker 18: But for the Pro Bowl weekend, I have an idea 509 00:25:58,000 --> 00:26:00,520 Speaker 18: that I think would work great, and that's that you 510 00:26:00,720 --> 00:26:03,600 Speaker 18: just had a third place game the week before the 511 00:26:03,640 --> 00:26:06,240 Speaker 18: Super Bowl, and you just take the losers from. 512 00:26:06,119 --> 00:26:08,160 Speaker 9: The AFC and the NFC Championship game. 513 00:26:08,280 --> 00:26:10,400 Speaker 18: And this year it might not have been that great 514 00:26:10,560 --> 00:26:13,720 Speaker 18: with bow Knicks getting injured, but like if Buffalo had won, 515 00:26:14,320 --> 00:26:16,280 Speaker 18: I think Buffalo and the Rams would have been a 516 00:26:16,320 --> 00:26:18,480 Speaker 18: better game to watch the week before the super Bowl 517 00:26:18,520 --> 00:26:20,919 Speaker 18: than the Super Bowl actually was. And maybe you give 518 00:26:21,000 --> 00:26:24,560 Speaker 18: them the incentive of moving up five spots in the draft, 519 00:26:24,680 --> 00:26:26,720 Speaker 18: ten spots in the draft to actually win the game. 520 00:26:27,920 --> 00:26:30,919 Speaker 3: Yeah, we brought up the two last place teams. They 521 00:26:30,960 --> 00:26:35,120 Speaker 3: are two worst teams. They should play, you know, maybe 522 00:26:35,200 --> 00:26:38,359 Speaker 3: that Saturday before the Super Bowl and the winning team 523 00:26:38,480 --> 00:26:41,640 Speaker 3: gets the number one pick in the draft. But then 524 00:26:41,720 --> 00:26:44,840 Speaker 3: somebody might say, well, they're a better team than the 525 00:26:44,920 --> 00:26:47,120 Speaker 3: other team and the other team needs help. They prove 526 00:26:47,200 --> 00:26:49,159 Speaker 3: that they were the worst team in the NFL by 527 00:26:49,240 --> 00:26:52,640 Speaker 3: losing that game. But I don't know if we could 528 00:26:52,680 --> 00:26:54,240 Speaker 3: come to a consensus on this. 529 00:26:57,680 --> 00:26:58,240 Speaker 13: You know, I do. 530 00:26:58,400 --> 00:27:01,240 Speaker 3: I think the Raiders tanked you sit down, Max Crosby. 531 00:27:01,320 --> 00:27:04,560 Speaker 3: You wanted to play even though he was technically injured. 532 00:27:05,440 --> 00:27:08,440 Speaker 3: And you know, that's something that Tom Brady's got to 533 00:27:08,480 --> 00:27:11,360 Speaker 3: deal with now because this has gone up the food 534 00:27:11,440 --> 00:27:13,920 Speaker 3: chain with the Raiders, with Max Crosby's future there. 535 00:27:14,400 --> 00:27:17,399 Speaker 2: He wanted to play that badly. They didn't want to 536 00:27:17,440 --> 00:27:18,240 Speaker 2: win those games. 537 00:27:18,720 --> 00:27:22,399 Speaker 4: Yeah, it's weird to say, but the only way to 538 00:27:22,520 --> 00:27:28,440 Speaker 4: really fix the tanking problem is to remove rewarding teams 539 00:27:28,560 --> 00:27:30,320 Speaker 4: who are at the bottom of their leagues. 540 00:27:30,480 --> 00:27:34,240 Speaker 3: Yeah, but how do you get better then if we 541 00:27:34,320 --> 00:27:37,560 Speaker 3: don't give you an opportunity to get better through the draft? 542 00:27:41,000 --> 00:27:43,680 Speaker 4: Well, I it always comes back to this for me, 543 00:27:43,960 --> 00:27:49,760 Speaker 4: So I'm sorry. But if you had more teams and 544 00:27:49,960 --> 00:27:54,119 Speaker 4: promotion and relegation in an academy system, if the Knicks 545 00:27:54,200 --> 00:27:58,040 Speaker 4: were able to start taking New York City or Tri 546 00:27:58,160 --> 00:28:01,000 Speaker 4: State area players the Knicks and the Nets, and they 547 00:28:01,080 --> 00:28:03,880 Speaker 4: started training them from when they were like seven years 548 00:28:03,920 --> 00:28:08,320 Speaker 4: old and invested in them that way, then there is 549 00:28:08,400 --> 00:28:10,920 Speaker 4: no more draft. There is no more tanking, There is 550 00:28:11,000 --> 00:28:14,400 Speaker 4: no more losing on purpose for anything. Yeah, but it's 551 00:28:14,640 --> 00:28:17,080 Speaker 4: then just competition based. Yeah, but then you could move 552 00:28:17,160 --> 00:28:20,280 Speaker 4: your family to that area correct to be able to 553 00:28:20,960 --> 00:28:23,320 Speaker 4: you know, grow up and play for the Knicks correct 554 00:28:23,359 --> 00:28:26,240 Speaker 4: rct Yes, okay, yeah, you could move your family anywhay 555 00:28:26,240 --> 00:28:27,520 Speaker 4: if you had a better chance to go play in 556 00:28:27,560 --> 00:28:30,000 Speaker 4: Denver than move to Denver if you want. But if 557 00:28:30,040 --> 00:28:32,120 Speaker 4: you were able to do that kind of thing, there 558 00:28:32,160 --> 00:28:34,639 Speaker 4: would be way more teams everywhere, you know. 559 00:28:35,240 --> 00:28:37,840 Speaker 2: Rich In Athens Hi, rich Wood's on your mind today? 560 00:28:38,920 --> 00:28:42,000 Speaker 15: Hey, guys, so are doing well?

International or club International? 656 00:33:44,120 --> 00:33:46,760 Speaker 3: Have sixty five percent of that vote, and we have 657 00:33:46,920 --> 00:33:49,280 Speaker 3: one here from Paul as a matter of fact, which 658 00:33:49,360 --> 00:33:52,240 Speaker 3: bothers you more about the Utah jazz they're recent tanking 659 00:33:52,440 --> 00:33:55,880 Speaker 3: or the lack of jazz in Salt Lake City right now? 660 00:33:55,920 --> 00:33:58,320 Speaker 3: The lack of jazz in the city has about sixty 661 00:33:58,360 --> 00:33:59,360 Speaker 3: seven percent of that vote. 662 00:33:59,360 --> 00:34:02,960 Speaker 2: I agree with that vote. Okay, that is a huge problem. 663 00:34:03,280 --> 00:34:07,600 Speaker 3: Yeah, I would gladly pay five hundred thousand dollars if 664 00:34:07,680 --> 00:34:10,600 Speaker 3: my team is worth four billion, if it meant that 665 00:34:10,719 --> 00:34:12,600 Speaker 3: we would end up with the number one pick in 666 00:34:12,640 --> 00:34:15,480 Speaker 3: the draft. When you think about it, five hundred thousand, 667 00:34:16,280 --> 00:34:19,759 Speaker 3: the jazz are worth four billion. Okay, you know you 668 00:34:19,880 --> 00:34:22,760 Speaker 3: get the public shaming by the commissioner. But it feels 669 00:34:22,880 --> 00:34:25,360 Speaker 3: like all of the tanking talk the last two or 670 00:34:25,400 --> 00:34:29,440 Speaker 3: three days that the commissioner maybe had to do something 671 00:34:29,520 --> 00:34:32,399 Speaker 3: going into the All Star weekend just to say, hey, 672 00:34:32,800 --> 00:34:35,120 Speaker 3: I'm still the commissioner of this league. There will be 673 00:34:35,280 --> 00:34:41,200 Speaker 3: no tanking while there is tanking. Scott in San Diego, Hi, Scott, 674 00:34:41,280 --> 00:34:42,200 Speaker 3: what's on your mind today? 675 00:34:43,760 --> 00:34:46,279 Speaker 16: More Dad, more deadheads? I was just calling about, you know, 676 00:34:46,360 --> 00:34:49,480 Speaker 16: we talk about this all the time, right, tanking in 677 00:34:49,560 --> 00:34:52,880 Speaker 16: all kinds of sports, but specifically NBA. But what if 678 00:34:52,960 --> 00:34:55,160 Speaker 16: we had some kind of limits. What I was trying 679 00:34:55,160 --> 00:34:56,520 Speaker 16: to say, You know, you put a limit on these 680 00:34:56,560 --> 00:34:58,680 Speaker 16: players on how many games they can play to be 681 00:34:58,760 --> 00:35:02,000 Speaker 16: in the All Star Game or MVP votes. But what 682 00:35:02,120 --> 00:35:04,799 Speaker 16: about if you did it for the team? I say, Okay, 683 00:35:04,800 --> 00:35:06,920 Speaker 16: you're the worst team, but you have to win so 684 00:35:07,160 --> 00:35:12,040 Speaker 16: many games to be the worst, you know, to be incentives. 685 00:35:15,360 --> 00:35:18,839 Speaker 3: I don't have an answer to it, Scott, because it's 686 00:35:18,920 --> 00:35:21,160 Speaker 3: been going on for quite some time, and the fact 687 00:35:21,200 --> 00:35:24,399 Speaker 3: that these teams are so overt in saying yep, that's 688 00:35:24,440 --> 00:35:28,360 Speaker 3: what we're doing. We're gonna sit these guys, you know, 689 00:35:28,520 --> 00:35:32,160 Speaker 3: managerial tanking. Because people get caught up in these guys 690 00:35:32,239 --> 00:35:35,399 Speaker 3: are playing hard. Yes, you're not necessarily putting your best 691 00:35:35,440 --> 00:35:38,280 Speaker 3: players on the floor. And that's what cost Mark Cuban 692 00:35:38,320 --> 00:35:40,759 Speaker 3: a half a million dollars when he admitted they had 693 00:35:41,200 --> 00:35:45,200 Speaker 3: front office tanking. You didn't put your best team. 694 00:35:45,040 --> 00:35:45,480 Speaker 2: On the floor. 695 00:35:45,719 --> 00:35:48,719 Speaker 3: Those on the floor play hard. That's not your best 696 00:35:48,800 --> 00:35:51,520 Speaker 3: team and that's why he was fined a half million dollars. 697 00:35:52,200 --> 00:35:55,879 Speaker 2: Uh. Josh and Vermont, Hi, Josh, what's on your mind today? 698 00:35:57,120 --> 00:35:57,239 Speaker 14: Hey? 699 00:35:57,320 --> 00:35:58,840 Speaker 13: Good morning, Josh and Vermont. 700 00:35:59,040 --> 00:35:59,760 Speaker 9: First time. 701 00:36:02,160 --> 00:36:06,680 Speaker 13: Calling calling about the tanking idea? What if instead of 702 00:36:07,200 --> 00:36:11,520 Speaker 13: going based on just the win loss record, he set 703 00:36:11,600 --> 00:36:13,800 Speaker 13: up a committee to vote on the draft order and 704 00:36:13,920 --> 00:36:15,400 Speaker 13: that way they can look at a team and say, well, 705 00:36:15,400 --> 00:36:18,440 Speaker 13: they're clearly tanking, they're better than their record. Therefore they 706 00:36:18,560 --> 00:36:21,320 Speaker 13: get a higher draft pick than the record shows. 707 00:36:22,200 --> 00:36:24,800 Speaker 3: I think the last week thing we need is another committee. 708 00:36:25,800 --> 00:36:29,439 Speaker 3: It feels like we got a lot of committees. But yeah, 709 00:36:29,680 --> 00:36:31,920 Speaker 3: you know what, we'll take it under advisement there of 710 00:36:32,600 --> 00:36:36,520 Speaker 3: how do you curb this? And do you want to 711 00:36:36,600 --> 00:36:40,520 Speaker 3: reward the worst teams in the NBA? But how do 712 00:36:40,600 --> 00:36:44,000 Speaker 3: you reward them? And reward is probably not the best 713 00:36:44,080 --> 00:36:47,239 Speaker 3: way to phrase that, but they are a bad team, 714 00:36:47,760 --> 00:36:50,320 Speaker 3: they need help. We've seen this down through the history 715 00:36:50,360 --> 00:36:54,040 Speaker 3: of the NBA, where one player can change the entire 716 00:36:54,520 --> 00:36:57,560 Speaker 3: I mean, look at what Lebron did for the city 717 00:36:57,640 --> 00:37:03,800 Speaker 3: of Cleveland, not just the team, the downtown. He probably 718 00:37:03,920 --> 00:37:07,920 Speaker 3: added a couple one hundred million dollars to downtown Cleveland. 719 00:37:08,840 --> 00:37:12,800 Speaker 3: He revitalized downtown Cleveland. I mean that that's one player 720 00:37:13,520 --> 00:37:17,040 Speaker 3: for your team. Jannis with what he did with Milwaukee 721 00:37:17,200 --> 00:37:21,120 Speaker 3: with downtown, these are hundreds of millions of dollars that 722 00:37:21,440 --> 00:37:25,080 Speaker 3: one player. Now, how often do we have those players 723 00:37:25,160 --> 00:37:28,000 Speaker 3: come along? Well, Jannis wasn't a number one pick overall. 724 00:37:28,400 --> 00:37:31,920 Speaker 3: Joker not a number one pick overall. Sometimes you can 725 00:37:31,960 --> 00:37:34,840 Speaker 3: get that number one pick and all of a sudden 726 00:37:35,080 --> 00:37:39,279 Speaker 3: that guy is not, you know, transformational. That maybe it's 727 00:37:39,320 --> 00:37:43,319 Speaker 3: the fifth pick, the tenth pick, twelfth, and that that's 728 00:37:43,360 --> 00:37:46,439 Speaker 3: where we get geared up. Anthony Bennett was a number 729 00:37:46,480 --> 00:37:50,320 Speaker 3: one pick overall, Markel Foltz was a number one pick overall, 730 00:37:50,760 --> 00:37:54,320 Speaker 3: Michael Olova, Candy a number one pick overall, LaRue Martin 731 00:37:54,400 --> 00:37:57,319 Speaker 3: a number one pick overall. You can have the pick, 732 00:37:57,760 --> 00:37:59,239 Speaker 3: it doesn't mean it's the right pick. 733 00:38:00,320 --> 00:38:01,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, dyl what. 734 00:38:02,000 --> 00:38:04,719 Speaker 7: If they kind of applied like a college football eye 735 00:38:04,800 --> 00:38:08,000 Speaker 7: test thing and be like, all right, this team legitimately stinks. 736 00:38:08,080 --> 00:38:10,400 Speaker 2: They're not tanking, and then kind of go off that 737 00:38:10,520 --> 00:38:11,040 Speaker 2: a little. 738 00:38:10,840 --> 00:38:15,239 Speaker 3: More okay, but are you trying to legitimately stink? Like 739 00:38:15,560 --> 00:38:19,000 Speaker 3: you can say, man, Washington's not Washington's not any good. 740 00:38:19,120 --> 00:38:22,520 Speaker 3: Every year, even when they're not trying to tank, they're 741 00:38:22,560 --> 00:38:24,640 Speaker 3: not any good. But I feel like you can tell 742 00:38:24,760 --> 00:38:28,160 Speaker 3: be like, they're just legitimately bad. There's no funny business 743 00:38:28,239 --> 00:38:31,239 Speaker 3: going on. Give them the first pick every year. Give 744 00:38:31,280 --> 00:38:33,640 Speaker 3: the Wizards the first pick until things change. 745 00:38:33,640 --> 00:38:35,760 Speaker 2: They would still screw it up. And they're like the Jets. 746 00:38:36,120 --> 00:38:36,480 Speaker 2: They would. 747 00:38:36,719 --> 00:38:40,680 Speaker 3: Yes, they are the basketball equivalent of the Jets. Lamont 748 00:38:40,800 --> 00:38:41,520 Speaker 3: in Arizona. 749 00:38:41,960 --> 00:38:47,279 Speaker 9: Hey, Lamont, all right, this is Lamont six feet one 750 00:38:47,760 --> 00:38:51,840 Speaker 9: ninety five. Three quick things. I was just I wanted 751 00:38:51,880 --> 00:38:53,759 Speaker 9: to know play the day. 752 00:38:53,800 --> 00:38:55,279 Speaker 2: What does that say? Twitter? Left? 753 00:38:55,360 --> 00:38:56,680 Speaker 5: I got it either, I don't know. 754 00:38:57,760 --> 00:39:01,040 Speaker 9: The second thing was when it comes to the All 755 00:39:01,120 --> 00:39:06,120 Speaker 9: Star Game, I think I think the NFL gets it right. 756 00:39:06,360 --> 00:39:07,879 Speaker 9: You should do it at the end of the year, 757 00:39:08,280 --> 00:39:11,400 Speaker 9: and then you have all of these people playing for 758 00:39:12,360 --> 00:39:16,239 Speaker 9: pretty much generational wealth. I'm not gonna play hard and 759 00:39:16,360 --> 00:39:20,000 Speaker 9: then risk my lifetime contract in a meaningless game in 760 00:39:20,080 --> 00:39:22,480 Speaker 9: the middle of the season, and then the third thing. 761 00:39:22,600 --> 00:39:23,279 Speaker 5: I think it was you. 762 00:39:23,400 --> 00:39:27,000 Speaker 9: I'm not sure, but someone used to say, like, how 763 00:39:27,040 --> 00:39:30,200 Speaker 9: come they just don't, you know, come out for low 764 00:39:30,360 --> 00:39:33,120 Speaker 9: management purposes? Play like a half at least people get 765 00:39:33,160 --> 00:39:35,400 Speaker 9: to come out and see them, and then you have. 766 00:39:37,760 --> 00:39:38,239 Speaker 19: Who was it? 767 00:39:38,880 --> 00:39:42,000 Speaker 9: Utah did that exact same thing? Set them down in 768 00:39:42,080 --> 00:39:44,040 Speaker 9: the fourth quarter and they still get fine. 769 00:39:44,200 --> 00:39:45,080 Speaker 2: Like it doesn't. 770 00:39:45,640 --> 00:39:47,440 Speaker 9: I don't know how you get around it, but I 771 00:39:47,520 --> 00:39:49,400 Speaker 9: think Utah kind of did it right. You get to 772 00:39:49,440 --> 00:39:51,200 Speaker 9: see them for at least three quarters and then you 773 00:39:51,239 --> 00:39:53,879 Speaker 9: wrest them in the fourth and that's not too much 774 00:39:53,920 --> 00:39:54,520 Speaker 9: wear and care. 775 00:39:54,680 --> 00:39:57,359 Speaker 3: But well, I don't know how many people came out 776 00:39:57,440 --> 00:40:00,480 Speaker 3: to see Laurie market and or Jared Jackson junior Miami. 777 00:40:00,719 --> 00:40:04,680 Speaker 3: But I understand what you're saying there.
