1 00:00:01,080 --> 00:00:03,800 Speaker 1: Don't listening to Fox Sports Radio Radio. 2 00:00:04,200 --> 00:00:09,280 Speaker 2: Oh, good morning, Happy Sunday to you, and take down 3 00:00:09,480 --> 00:00:13,280 Speaker 2: the Knicks. Pacers win one, twenty five one eight in 4 00:00:13,440 --> 00:00:18,400 Speaker 2: game six. Pacers moving on to the NBA Finals, and 5 00:00:18,800 --> 00:00:21,479 Speaker 2: that's the whole season for the Knicks. It is over. 6 00:00:21,640 --> 00:00:25,120 Speaker 2: The dream is dead. It's the first NBA Finals appearance 7 00:00:25,160 --> 00:00:29,320 Speaker 2: for the Pacers in twenty five years. And we'll get 8 00:00:29,320 --> 00:00:31,200 Speaker 2: into the nuts and bolts of the game and look 9 00:00:31,240 --> 00:00:33,320 Speaker 2: forward and all that good stuff. But how you guys 10 00:00:33,360 --> 00:00:36,720 Speaker 2: doing today? Crack Jeff, Everything good in you guys world 11 00:00:36,760 --> 00:00:37,120 Speaker 2: over there. 12 00:00:38,000 --> 00:00:42,040 Speaker 3: Yeah, you know, yesterday was a good day for watching 13 00:00:42,080 --> 00:00:44,160 Speaker 3: some ball. I mean, I wish my Organ Ducks would 14 00:00:44,200 --> 00:00:45,879 Speaker 3: have shown a little bit of a fight there in 15 00:00:45,920 --> 00:00:50,640 Speaker 3: the college baseball scene, which is I guess taking the 16 00:00:50,880 --> 00:00:54,520 Speaker 3: forefront now because no NBA till Thursday. I think, no 17 00:00:54,640 --> 00:00:58,480 Speaker 3: NHL till Wednesday. You know, as I woke up this 18 00:00:58,520 --> 00:01:01,000 Speaker 3: morning and started looking through social media, the uh you 19 00:01:01,120 --> 00:01:03,400 Speaker 3: start seeing the tributes to NBA on tn T, which 20 00:01:03,400 --> 00:01:05,800 Speaker 3: is now over. Last night was the final game, Yeah, 21 00:01:05,840 --> 00:01:08,600 Speaker 3: and they're going to ESPN and it's not gonna be 22 00:01:08,640 --> 00:01:11,240 Speaker 3: the same show. And I was thinking to myself, would 23 00:01:11,240 --> 00:01:14,240 Speaker 3: the NFL let that happen. I know it's a business 24 00:01:14,840 --> 00:01:18,000 Speaker 3: and you have to to take the money that you 25 00:01:18,120 --> 00:01:20,840 Speaker 3: get right, the highest offer, the best offer, but I 26 00:01:20,880 --> 00:01:26,640 Speaker 3: feel like the NFL would would not let this show die. 27 00:01:27,440 --> 00:01:28,080 Speaker 4: Is it is. 28 00:01:28,200 --> 00:01:30,360 Speaker 3: It is not what makes the NBA what it is, 29 00:01:30,920 --> 00:01:33,160 Speaker 3: but it's a huge part of the discussion about the NBA. 30 00:01:33,319 --> 00:01:37,520 Speaker 3: Those guys do such a good job of making it 31 00:01:37,640 --> 00:01:41,320 Speaker 3: fun and entertaining and bringing fans to the game. 32 00:01:41,560 --> 00:01:43,480 Speaker 4: The Indiana Pacer fans last night. 33 00:01:43,480 --> 00:01:47,640 Speaker 3: We're chanting TNT while they were doing the outro last night, 34 00:01:48,440 --> 00:01:51,800 Speaker 3: and for it to leave, I feel like it's an 35 00:01:51,880 --> 00:01:56,360 Speaker 3: unforced error by the NBA to not make sure this stayed, 36 00:01:57,280 --> 00:02:00,720 Speaker 3: carve out something right, but just some somehow keep it 37 00:02:00,760 --> 00:02:03,960 Speaker 3: where it's at and disappointed see it. It's not gonna 38 00:02:03,960 --> 00:02:05,720 Speaker 3: be the same thing at different network. 39 00:02:05,720 --> 00:02:06,000 Speaker 4: Guys. 40 00:02:06,680 --> 00:02:09,720 Speaker 1: Fantastic points and good morning guys, and good morning and 41 00:02:09,840 --> 00:02:13,080 Speaker 1: all our listeners, and you know it really is true, 42 00:02:13,120 --> 00:02:15,880 Speaker 1: and you know you said something there. It's nice to 43 00:02:16,440 --> 00:02:19,919 Speaker 1: watch and know you're gonna be entertained. You laugh, You 44 00:02:20,040 --> 00:02:22,880 Speaker 1: got all the boys there at the halftime and before 45 00:02:22,960 --> 00:02:25,840 Speaker 1: the pregame and post game. You're right. I never really 46 00:02:25,840 --> 00:02:28,880 Speaker 1: gave it much thought. It's actually fun, it's entertaining, and 47 00:02:28,919 --> 00:02:31,680 Speaker 1: that makes it relevant to you know, the public out 48 00:02:31,720 --> 00:02:35,640 Speaker 1: there and to see it go over to ESPN, who 49 00:02:36,080 --> 00:02:38,760 Speaker 1: you know, I know, you guys probably know my feeling 50 00:02:38,760 --> 00:02:40,680 Speaker 1: about ESPN. I kind of go after them a little 51 00:02:40,680 --> 00:02:43,200 Speaker 1: bit for letting go of my buddy Howie Schwab and 52 00:02:43,280 --> 00:02:48,440 Speaker 1: letting go of my buddy Teddy Atlas. It's just in general, 53 00:02:48,960 --> 00:02:53,160 Speaker 1: two totally different kind of networks. And I really enjoy 54 00:02:53,960 --> 00:02:57,400 Speaker 1: the boys there. I mean, who doesn't like Shack and 55 00:02:57,560 --> 00:03:00,920 Speaker 1: Barkley and you know you're gonna be entertained. It's just 56 00:03:01,360 --> 00:03:03,519 Speaker 1: it's just such a great feeling. So it's it's hard 57 00:03:03,520 --> 00:03:06,840 Speaker 1: to believe. Jeff, you're right, the NFL would never allow that. 58 00:03:06,880 --> 00:03:08,760 Speaker 3: I don't think. I don't think the NFL would ever 59 00:03:08,800 --> 00:03:11,519 Speaker 3: let that happen. And the thing about that that show, too, Brian, 60 00:03:11,639 --> 00:03:13,799 Speaker 3: is like their fear, like they don't don't care, Like 61 00:03:13,840 --> 00:03:16,040 Speaker 3: they'll call out players like they called that cat after 62 00:03:16,280 --> 00:03:20,040 Speaker 3: after game, right, like they call out guys right to 63 00:03:20,080 --> 00:03:22,720 Speaker 3: their face. Because you have you have two Hall of 64 00:03:22,720 --> 00:03:25,400 Speaker 3: famers case with the Hall of Famer, you know, like 65 00:03:25,840 --> 00:03:29,320 Speaker 3: I know, Barkley and Okay, I don't think he was, 66 00:03:29,360 --> 00:03:33,080 Speaker 3: but two time champion right with the Rockets, so like obviously, 67 00:03:33,320 --> 00:03:35,200 Speaker 3: and then they bring on Draymond Green and then you 68 00:03:35,200 --> 00:03:37,680 Speaker 3: know Dwayne Wade every now and then is on the show. 69 00:03:37,720 --> 00:03:39,120 Speaker 3: Like you know, they they're bringing some of these new 70 00:03:39,240 --> 00:03:42,480 Speaker 3: voices and just it's a lot. It's very fun to 71 00:03:42,480 --> 00:03:45,040 Speaker 3: watch that show man. And again you're not you're not watching. 72 00:03:45,120 --> 00:03:49,120 Speaker 3: I think for in depth basketball analysis, there's other shows 73 00:03:49,120 --> 00:03:51,760 Speaker 3: for that. It's not one of those. It's for entertainment 74 00:03:51,840 --> 00:03:55,720 Speaker 3: and for enjoying the product and hearing guys say whatever 75 00:03:55,800 --> 00:03:58,320 Speaker 3: they want to say about the game. And I think 76 00:03:58,440 --> 00:04:01,840 Speaker 3: last night you'd say that. I think for the first 77 00:04:03,160 --> 00:04:05,520 Speaker 3: what twenty minutes that game was that the Knicks pace 78 00:04:05,600 --> 00:04:08,360 Speaker 3: Brian and then about four minutes of in the second quarter, 79 00:04:08,520 --> 00:04:10,440 Speaker 3: it turned to the PACER's pace and the Knicks just 80 00:04:10,520 --> 00:04:13,400 Speaker 3: can't play at a pace with Pacer scoring in the 81 00:04:13,400 --> 00:04:14,000 Speaker 3: one twenties. 82 00:04:14,880 --> 00:04:17,240 Speaker 2: Yeah, well, that's the thing I'll say real fast about 83 00:04:17,520 --> 00:04:21,280 Speaker 2: inside the NBA on TNT, I could see the exact 84 00:04:21,360 --> 00:04:25,280 Speaker 2: same thing happening in the NFL. Because the show remains right, 85 00:04:25,320 --> 00:04:27,159 Speaker 2: the show is just going to be on a different network, 86 00:04:27,160 --> 00:04:30,960 Speaker 2: but it's going to remain a very similar product. So 87 00:04:31,440 --> 00:04:33,880 Speaker 2: could I see if there. That's the funny thing is 88 00:04:33,880 --> 00:04:37,320 Speaker 2: the NFL has nothing remotely close to as good as 89 00:04:37,400 --> 00:04:40,080 Speaker 2: inside the NBA. But let's just say they did, right, 90 00:04:40,160 --> 00:04:42,880 Speaker 2: Let's say they had the exact same thing, and they 91 00:04:42,960 --> 00:04:45,960 Speaker 2: wanted to like kick TNT to the curb, and they 92 00:04:46,000 --> 00:04:49,200 Speaker 2: wanted to get involved in streaming. They wanted an Amazon 93 00:04:49,320 --> 00:04:51,719 Speaker 2: Prime and you know, they wanted all that. I could 94 00:04:51,800 --> 00:04:54,320 Speaker 2: absolutely see them saying, you know, it's been real, been 95 00:04:54,400 --> 00:04:57,440 Speaker 2: fun TNT, but we're gonna get into this streaming thing. 96 00:04:57,640 --> 00:05:00,440 Speaker 2: We need to open up this revenue stream. We're gonna 97 00:05:00,480 --> 00:05:03,279 Speaker 2: keep inside the NFL. We're gonna keep that going. It's 98 00:05:03,320 --> 00:05:05,800 Speaker 2: just we're gonna be on another network. I could see 99 00:05:05,839 --> 00:05:08,719 Speaker 2: them doing the exact same thing. But that's the good 100 00:05:08,760 --> 00:05:11,520 Speaker 2: part of it is, uh, you know inside is going 101 00:05:11,560 --> 00:05:15,320 Speaker 2: to remain. And that's what Shack one of his rants 102 00:05:15,320 --> 00:05:17,680 Speaker 2: of like weed them boys, the whole rant where he 103 00:05:17,800 --> 00:05:21,200 Speaker 2: was like, spare the tears, We're not going anywhere we're around. 104 00:05:21,279 --> 00:05:23,719 Speaker 2: You know, we're still the Kings on the block. And 105 00:05:23,760 --> 00:05:27,360 Speaker 2: they were just dropping f bombs like Shack and can 106 00:05:27,440 --> 00:05:29,400 Speaker 2: they just don't care. They're gonna do whatever they want 107 00:05:29,400 --> 00:05:31,920 Speaker 2: to do. They've been fantastic. Yeah. 108 00:05:31,720 --> 00:05:31,800 Speaker 1: Uh. 109 00:05:31,960 --> 00:05:35,400 Speaker 2: But that's the thing, man, is it's so entertaining. But 110 00:05:35,440 --> 00:05:38,320 Speaker 2: they do provide a lot of insight. That's the thing 111 00:05:38,360 --> 00:05:41,400 Speaker 2: that's overlooked is it's the all the funny stuff that 112 00:05:41,600 --> 00:05:45,280 Speaker 2: catches your attention the most where whether it's you know, 113 00:05:45,440 --> 00:05:48,000 Speaker 2: Barkley talking about the big old women in San Antonio 114 00:05:48,160 --> 00:05:50,440 Speaker 2: or an and they're gonna. 115 00:05:50,240 --> 00:05:52,440 Speaker 3: Be good again soon and we're gonna have to hear 116 00:05:52,760 --> 00:05:55,320 Speaker 3: you know, Barkley Moore talk about the San Antonio women. 117 00:05:56,440 --> 00:05:57,920 Speaker 3: It's just a great he has going. 118 00:05:58,880 --> 00:06:01,680 Speaker 2: That's so good man. It's but all that stuff catches 119 00:06:01,720 --> 00:06:04,680 Speaker 2: your attention more than anything, you know, But they do. 120 00:06:04,720 --> 00:06:07,080 Speaker 2: They provide a lot of insight, and I think they 121 00:06:07,120 --> 00:06:10,280 Speaker 2: get that's overlooked quite a bit. But as far as 122 00:06:10,279 --> 00:06:14,000 Speaker 2: the game goes, yeah, Jeff, you mentioned the pace, and 123 00:06:14,040 --> 00:06:16,680 Speaker 2: it certainly favored the Pacers in the second half, and 124 00:06:16,720 --> 00:06:19,160 Speaker 2: they just kind of ran the Knicks out of the building. 125 00:06:19,640 --> 00:06:22,000 Speaker 2: Some of the things that really mattered last night. You 126 00:06:22,080 --> 00:06:25,480 Speaker 2: got to give the Pacers, especially Andrew Nemhart, a lot 127 00:06:25,520 --> 00:06:28,800 Speaker 2: of credit. They did an excellent job defensively, especially against 128 00:06:28,839 --> 00:06:34,039 Speaker 2: Jalen Brunson. Brunton was so annoyed being defended the way 129 00:06:34,040 --> 00:06:36,560 Speaker 2: that he was and seeing bodies all night long, you know, 130 00:06:36,680 --> 00:06:39,440 Speaker 2: ninety four feet from the basket and all that. Brunton 131 00:06:39,560 --> 00:06:43,320 Speaker 2: was so frustrated. At one point he headbutted Nemhart. There's 132 00:06:43,360 --> 00:06:45,960 Speaker 2: no calls the minor headbutt, but still he was that 133 00:06:46,080 --> 00:06:50,080 Speaker 2: frustrated to do that. Halliburton played way better. Jeff was 134 00:06:50,120 --> 00:06:52,560 Speaker 2: way better in game six than game five, so he 135 00:06:52,720 --> 00:06:55,919 Speaker 2: was the ultimate zigzag guy the last three games. And 136 00:06:56,000 --> 00:06:59,920 Speaker 2: too many turnovers man, the Knicks, way too many costly turnovers, 137 00:07:00,240 --> 00:07:05,320 Speaker 2: fueling the Pacers in transition. The Pacers in transition points 138 00:07:05,360 --> 00:07:08,400 Speaker 2: outscored the Knicks forty one to ten. Now those aren't 139 00:07:08,440 --> 00:07:10,920 Speaker 2: just fast break points. Sometimes the Knicks scored and the 140 00:07:10,960 --> 00:07:14,480 Speaker 2: Pacers still got a transition bucket. That's just terrible defense. 141 00:07:14,480 --> 00:07:15,360 Speaker 2: Should never happen. 142 00:07:15,920 --> 00:07:20,840 Speaker 3: The Pacers also scored thirty four points off eighteen Knicks turnovers, 143 00:07:21,240 --> 00:07:23,320 Speaker 3: so that part of those are going to be in 144 00:07:23,360 --> 00:07:24,679 Speaker 3: transition of course as well. 145 00:07:26,080 --> 00:07:26,280 Speaker 1: Yeah. 146 00:07:26,320 --> 00:07:29,920 Speaker 3: Look, the physical part of that game was quite interesting 147 00:07:29,960 --> 00:07:32,040 Speaker 3: because they let them get away with a lot early. 148 00:07:32,640 --> 00:07:33,960 Speaker 3: It kind of cut up a little bit in the 149 00:07:33,960 --> 00:07:37,480 Speaker 3: second quarter, and then the game was officiating a little tighter, 150 00:07:37,840 --> 00:07:40,160 Speaker 3: But early in that game was very noticeable how physical 151 00:07:40,160 --> 00:07:44,640 Speaker 3: Indiana was with Brunson. They had just hands on him 152 00:07:45,160 --> 00:07:48,080 Speaker 3: all over the court until he got the ball off screens, 153 00:07:48,440 --> 00:07:51,200 Speaker 3: running around. And what I found interesting, I did not 154 00:07:51,240 --> 00:07:53,080 Speaker 3: fade Brunson. I think I had text you, Brian, I 155 00:07:53,080 --> 00:07:55,360 Speaker 3: had thought of fading him live, right, because we've seen 156 00:07:56,000 --> 00:07:58,240 Speaker 3: score fourteen points in the first quarter and then end up, 157 00:07:58,480 --> 00:08:02,000 Speaker 3: you know, with two points in the entire game, four 158 00:08:02,000 --> 00:08:05,680 Speaker 3: to fourth quarter, three points in Game five. But they 159 00:08:05,720 --> 00:08:07,800 Speaker 3: gave him an extended rest at the start of the 160 00:08:07,840 --> 00:08:10,960 Speaker 3: game that I thought was very curious. So most superstars 161 00:08:11,000 --> 00:08:13,160 Speaker 3: play the first twelve minutes of the first of the game, right, 162 00:08:13,160 --> 00:08:15,600 Speaker 3: the first quarter, maybe it's eleven minutes, you know, you 163 00:08:16,120 --> 00:08:19,080 Speaker 3: get that, you know there's a foul with forty five 164 00:08:19,080 --> 00:08:21,040 Speaker 3: seconds left in the first quarter, and you sit out right, 165 00:08:21,440 --> 00:08:23,120 Speaker 3: and then they come back at the sixth minute mark 166 00:08:23,160 --> 00:08:26,200 Speaker 3: of the second quarter. That's most superstars, right, That's sort 167 00:08:26,200 --> 00:08:28,800 Speaker 3: of the rotation they have in the playoffs. It might 168 00:08:28,800 --> 00:08:30,880 Speaker 3: be twelve minutes and you come back at eight minutes, right, 169 00:08:30,920 --> 00:08:34,199 Speaker 3: That's sort of what it's at Game five, Brunton took 170 00:08:34,280 --> 00:08:36,320 Speaker 3: off seven minutes he took off and in the first 171 00:08:36,400 --> 00:08:38,880 Speaker 3: quarter till five minutes left in the second quarter, So 172 00:08:38,880 --> 00:08:40,959 Speaker 3: you're like, oh, that's a little bit longer. Last night 173 00:08:41,000 --> 00:08:42,640 Speaker 3: he went out with three minutes in the first quarter. 174 00:08:42,679 --> 00:08:46,400 Speaker 3: I've noticed that, and it sat till seven minutes in 175 00:08:46,440 --> 00:08:50,360 Speaker 3: the In the he sat a full eight minutes, which 176 00:08:50,400 --> 00:08:51,600 Speaker 3: is a lot for Superstar. 177 00:08:51,640 --> 00:08:51,720 Speaker 1: Now. 178 00:08:51,760 --> 00:08:53,560 Speaker 3: They could do that because they were keeping pace with 179 00:08:53,640 --> 00:08:56,920 Speaker 3: the Pacers. But I thought Brunton looked tired, which is 180 00:08:56,960 --> 00:08:59,360 Speaker 3: totally the way the minutes he plays, the amount of 181 00:08:59,360 --> 00:09:02,199 Speaker 3: stress on his body and the amount of of activity 182 00:09:02,240 --> 00:09:04,360 Speaker 3: he has to do for them to keep the game close. 183 00:09:05,000 --> 00:09:07,640 Speaker 3: I just thought the Pacers in this game showed their depth, 184 00:09:08,440 --> 00:09:12,199 Speaker 3: their youth, a little bit, their legs. You know, Cat 185 00:09:12,240 --> 00:09:14,040 Speaker 3: was a disaster for most of the game. I don't 186 00:09:14,400 --> 00:09:17,360 Speaker 3: he plays basketball. He's never played basketball before I watched him. 187 00:09:17,400 --> 00:09:20,160 Speaker 3: I'm like, have you played? Have you played before? I mean, 188 00:09:20,480 --> 00:09:22,240 Speaker 3: he had a foul where he just pushed yack him 189 00:09:22,240 --> 00:09:23,679 Speaker 3: in the back for no reason. You're like, that's a 190 00:09:23,720 --> 00:09:26,640 Speaker 3: dumb foul. Then when he hooked, he can't he was 191 00:09:26,720 --> 00:09:29,440 Speaker 3: driving to the lane and like and like writ move 192 00:09:29,520 --> 00:09:31,600 Speaker 3: like like he's a d ND. He came like through 193 00:09:31,679 --> 00:09:35,760 Speaker 3: writ move and then grabbed the arm of the defender 194 00:09:36,120 --> 00:09:39,720 Speaker 3: and like like I'm yet holding, Like that's not bad, 195 00:09:39,840 --> 00:09:42,040 Speaker 3: that's not basketball. So he was just all over the place, 196 00:09:42,080 --> 00:09:44,679 Speaker 3: and the players were better, you know, they just were 197 00:09:44,720 --> 00:09:48,320 Speaker 3: better cracks. So I all I had was Pacers first quarter, 198 00:09:48,320 --> 00:09:50,240 Speaker 3: which Brian got hooked, I got a I got a 199 00:09:50,280 --> 00:09:53,480 Speaker 3: better number, so I was able to to get a 200 00:09:53,480 --> 00:09:56,400 Speaker 3: push there on the one, and I just kind of 201 00:09:56,400 --> 00:09:58,600 Speaker 3: sat back and watched. I didn't know what was gonna happen. 202 00:09:58,840 --> 00:10:01,160 Speaker 3: I thought about taking the Knicks plus some points at 203 00:10:01,160 --> 00:10:04,079 Speaker 3: one at some point, but then the third quarter kind 204 00:10:04,080 --> 00:10:06,160 Speaker 3: of got scirreling and I stid away there. 205 00:10:06,520 --> 00:10:09,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, at least the Nicks made the series, though, after 206 00:10:09,120 --> 00:10:13,600 Speaker 1: losing those first two games and falling behind two in 207 00:10:13,640 --> 00:10:16,240 Speaker 1: the end. The Pacers are just a better all around team. 208 00:10:16,480 --> 00:10:18,280 Speaker 1: And look look at the coach, Coach Carli and one 209 00:10:18,320 --> 00:10:21,160 Speaker 1: of the most underrated coaches in the NBA. He's done 210 00:10:21,200 --> 00:10:24,400 Speaker 1: a really great job with this team. Uh, they're they're deep, 211 00:10:24,520 --> 00:10:26,280 Speaker 1: they have so many ways they can beat you. Just 212 00:10:26,280 --> 00:10:30,480 Speaker 1: look at last night's they had seven guys score double figures. 213 00:10:30,520 --> 00:10:33,600 Speaker 1: That's amazing. They also play really good defense, which you know, 214 00:10:33,679 --> 00:10:36,680 Speaker 1: to be real blunt. Nobody really talks about that. They 215 00:10:36,720 --> 00:10:39,560 Speaker 1: actually play good defense too, so uh, you know, I 216 00:10:39,640 --> 00:10:43,400 Speaker 1: look forward to I'm hoping that the finals is not 217 00:10:43,480 --> 00:10:46,280 Speaker 1: gonna be what everybody says. I mean, I was around 218 00:10:46,400 --> 00:10:48,679 Speaker 1: yesterday casinos all day long. I had a lot of 219 00:10:48,720 --> 00:10:50,760 Speaker 1: guys from out of town come in for the World Series, 220 00:10:51,040 --> 00:10:54,800 Speaker 1: some big tournaments starting out, and they're talking about, oh, 221 00:10:55,000 --> 00:10:58,240 Speaker 1: this doesn't matter who when you know, Oklahoma City, this 222 00:10:58,280 --> 00:11:01,440 Speaker 1: is a joke. It doesn't. I'm hoping it's not a joke. 223 00:11:01,480 --> 00:11:04,040 Speaker 1: I'm hoping that we do get a series out of it, 224 00:11:04,120 --> 00:11:07,920 Speaker 1: and you know, the Pacers don't lose that momentum or 225 00:11:08,280 --> 00:11:10,720 Speaker 1: you know, steal a couple of games and maybe make it. 226 00:11:12,400 --> 00:11:14,360 Speaker 3: I don't know about that, correct. I think I think 227 00:11:14,360 --> 00:11:17,040 Speaker 3: it will be competitive. The games will be mostly competitive. 228 00:11:17,679 --> 00:11:18,920 Speaker 4: But I I just. 229 00:11:20,559 --> 00:11:23,800 Speaker 3: How what's the path for India? They have to shoot 230 00:11:23,800 --> 00:11:25,800 Speaker 3: fifty three percent from three like they did last night. 231 00:11:25,960 --> 00:11:28,679 Speaker 3: I just don't I don't see. The matchups just feel 232 00:11:29,240 --> 00:11:32,280 Speaker 3: very difficult. You're gonna throw dort On halle Burn the 233 00:11:32,440 --> 00:11:36,400 Speaker 3: entire game, and then they're gonna put Williams on Siakam 234 00:11:36,840 --> 00:11:41,280 Speaker 3: and Indiana has no inside presence, turner and top and 235 00:11:41,280 --> 00:11:43,040 Speaker 3: play at the key, right, I mean play as you 236 00:11:43,120 --> 00:11:45,839 Speaker 3: meet the three point line. How are they gonna defend Chet? 237 00:11:45,960 --> 00:11:48,599 Speaker 3: I think Chet's gonna have a big series, Hardenstein, I 238 00:11:48,840 --> 00:11:50,520 Speaker 3: just don't know how they're gonna defend these guys. S 239 00:11:50,600 --> 00:11:53,040 Speaker 3: Jason get his thirty points and then you know, Halle 240 00:11:53,080 --> 00:11:54,800 Speaker 3: Burn has like two games of series where you're like, 241 00:11:54,760 --> 00:11:55,560 Speaker 3: what are we doing? 242 00:11:55,600 --> 00:11:55,920 Speaker 4: Buddy? 243 00:11:56,320 --> 00:11:58,240 Speaker 3: If you have those in this series, that's it. And 244 00:11:58,320 --> 00:12:03,160 Speaker 3: so I just think Okay is deeper. There's always a 245 00:12:03,200 --> 00:12:05,600 Speaker 3: moment in OKC games where if you know it's a 246 00:12:05,600 --> 00:12:07,199 Speaker 3: four point game, a three point game, all of a 247 00:12:07,200 --> 00:12:09,640 Speaker 3: sudden it's twelve and the game's over. If you can 248 00:12:09,679 --> 00:12:13,839 Speaker 3: wager on that situation happening at some point, always good. So, uh, Brian, 249 00:12:14,040 --> 00:12:16,600 Speaker 3: I think it's gonna be a struggle for the Pacers, 250 00:12:16,679 --> 00:12:18,680 Speaker 3: but I think we're gonna get competitive games cracked. 251 00:12:18,679 --> 00:12:19,760 Speaker 4: I don't think we're gonna. 252 00:12:19,520 --> 00:12:24,120 Speaker 3: Have a lot of blowouts, but it's not gonna be 253 00:12:24,160 --> 00:12:25,920 Speaker 3: a series I think when we can talk about serious. 254 00:12:25,960 --> 00:12:28,480 Speaker 3: I already made a future bet on this series, so 255 00:12:29,000 --> 00:12:30,719 Speaker 3: and I use by the way, bet MGM, thank you. 256 00:12:30,760 --> 00:12:33,520 Speaker 3: I used I had bonus bets. I used one on 257 00:12:33,640 --> 00:12:36,720 Speaker 3: the Pacers to win the NBA Championship like two weeks ago, 258 00:12:36,760 --> 00:12:39,000 Speaker 3: and one on the Thunder, so I got plus. I'm 259 00:12:39,000 --> 00:12:41,160 Speaker 3: gonna make some money thanks for my bonus. 260 00:12:41,600 --> 00:12:44,000 Speaker 2: It's like your your goal bets, you know, like your 261 00:12:44,040 --> 00:12:46,040 Speaker 2: goal line betsy, both teams. 262 00:12:46,360 --> 00:12:50,040 Speaker 3: Oh that dude. That has been the NHL playoffs. I 263 00:12:50,080 --> 00:12:53,400 Speaker 3: had a struggle in NHL for parts of of the season. 264 00:12:53,840 --> 00:12:56,040 Speaker 3: The playoffs though, what was it, Brian nineteen? The last 265 00:12:56,080 --> 00:13:00,360 Speaker 3: twenty one games have been decided by two Yeah, and 266 00:13:00,400 --> 00:13:02,400 Speaker 3: I've just been betting the puck line on both sides. 267 00:13:02,440 --> 00:13:05,400 Speaker 3: They're both plus money. And an empty net goal is 268 00:13:05,559 --> 00:13:08,080 Speaker 3: like I got Edmonton that night at plus three ninety 269 00:13:08,800 --> 00:13:09,439 Speaker 3: empty night, Gus. 270 00:13:09,520 --> 00:13:12,679 Speaker 2: I can just picture you, like first fifty five minutes, 271 00:13:12,720 --> 00:13:15,000 Speaker 2: you're like all right, like casually paying attention, and now 272 00:13:15,000 --> 00:13:16,360 Speaker 2: it's all right, it's go tough. 273 00:13:16,200 --> 00:13:19,320 Speaker 3: Pammy empty net goal. Yeah, Panthers, empty net goal. And 274 00:13:19,320 --> 00:13:21,079 Speaker 3: then they scored empty net going a weird way too. 275 00:13:21,120 --> 00:13:23,640 Speaker 3: They've got some weird They banked it off like they 276 00:13:23,679 --> 00:13:25,640 Speaker 3: had banked it off and it went fifty feet like 277 00:13:25,800 --> 00:13:28,480 Speaker 3: into the goal. It was awesome. So but yeah, I 278 00:13:28,480 --> 00:13:30,320 Speaker 3: mean there's many ways to wager on these games. I 279 00:13:30,360 --> 00:13:33,040 Speaker 3: have some serious thoughts on some of these numbers. 280 00:13:33,400 --> 00:13:36,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, we'll dive into the finals match up here in 281 00:13:36,200 --> 00:13:39,800 Speaker 2: a second, But just Cliff's notes version is you see 282 00:13:39,840 --> 00:13:42,679 Speaker 2: the difference in weight class right if you look at 283 00:13:42,720 --> 00:13:46,520 Speaker 2: the Pacers, I agree, Jeff. Their depth just wore down 284 00:13:46,720 --> 00:13:49,960 Speaker 2: the Nicks. It's obvious. Like you had TIBs, he was 285 00:13:50,120 --> 00:13:53,800 Speaker 2: forced to play some of these rotation guys that weren't 286 00:13:53,840 --> 00:13:57,439 Speaker 2: in the rotation, like the line right Lantry Shammitt. Shamitt 287 00:13:57,480 --> 00:14:01,160 Speaker 2: hit four four threes yesterday, you know, so normally those 288 00:14:01,160 --> 00:14:03,600 Speaker 2: guys weren't playing at all at the beginning of the series. 289 00:14:03,600 --> 00:14:06,640 Speaker 2: But the Pacers depth forced Tibbs to play some of 290 00:14:06,679 --> 00:14:09,640 Speaker 2: those guys at the end of the bench. And that's 291 00:14:09,640 --> 00:14:12,000 Speaker 2: the thing with the Thunder. We know how deep their 292 00:14:12,040 --> 00:14:15,160 Speaker 2: team is, so the Pacers have their work cutout for them. 293 00:14:15,160 --> 00:14:16,280 Speaker 2: There's no doubt about that. 294 00:14:16,520 --> 00:14:16,800 Speaker 1: All Right. 295 00:14:16,800 --> 00:14:20,640 Speaker 2: We've got Bill Krachenberger, professional sports handicapper.

Okay, 317 00:15:32,680 --> 00:15:36,160 Speaker 2: so we understand why the Thunder would be favored to 318 00:15:36,240 --> 00:15:39,520 Speaker 2: win the finals, but this big of a favorite. They 319 00:15:39,560 --> 00:15:42,040 Speaker 2: are massive favorite, very big. 320 00:15:42,680 --> 00:15:42,840 Speaker 1: Right. 321 00:15:42,880 --> 00:15:47,160 Speaker 2: We're talking minus seven fifty. You'd have to risk seven 322 00:15:47,240 --> 00:15:50,120 Speaker 2: hundred and fifty dollars just to win one hundred dollars. 323 00:15:50,160 --> 00:15:52,920 Speaker 2: That's how huge of a favorite they are. Pacers are 324 00:15:53,160 --> 00:15:57,120 Speaker 2: plus five twenty five in that neighborhood, you know, five 325 00:15:57,200 --> 00:16:00,600 Speaker 2: to one. So this is the we've talked about before, 326 00:16:00,720 --> 00:16:06,400 Speaker 2: right where I think that's a little heavy. But you 327 00:16:06,400 --> 00:16:09,000 Speaker 2: could make the argument, Jeff, right, we've talked about this. 328 00:16:09,520 --> 00:16:12,000 Speaker 2: You could you get a little extra value on the Pacers. 329 00:16:12,000 --> 00:16:15,040 Speaker 2: It's that's fine, but you gotta see a legitimate path 330 00:16:15,160 --> 00:16:18,360 Speaker 2: toward them winning it all because you gotta be able 331 00:16:18,360 --> 00:16:20,160 Speaker 2: to cast your bet. I know you could play it 332 00:16:20,200 --> 00:16:23,080 Speaker 2: and get off it a little bit, but I just 333 00:16:23,200 --> 00:16:26,160 Speaker 2: even though I think that's a little too steep, I understand, 334 00:16:26,240 --> 00:16:30,120 Speaker 2: Okaye should be favored, but minus seven fifty is steep. 335 00:16:30,520 --> 00:16:34,080 Speaker 2: This is the biggest favorite to win the finals since 336 00:16:34,200 --> 00:16:37,360 Speaker 2: Golden State in twenty eighteen, and that year they swept 337 00:16:37,680 --> 00:16:40,880 Speaker 2: the Warriors to win it all. So I mean that's 338 00:16:40,920 --> 00:16:43,040 Speaker 2: a massive favorite. But I still don't see a legitimate 339 00:16:43,080 --> 00:16:46,040 Speaker 2: path toward the Pacers winning this. So I can't make 340 00:16:46,080 --> 00:16:48,480 Speaker 2: a Pacers to win it bet just. 341 00:16:49,320 --> 00:16:52,120 Speaker 3: If you're desperately needing to get down on Thunder minus 342 00:16:52,120 --> 00:16:54,080 Speaker 3: seven hundred. If you put it with Scheffler to win 343 00:16:54,120 --> 00:16:57,600 Speaker 3: the US Open at plus three hundred, it's plus three 344 00:16:58,080 --> 00:16:59,040 Speaker 3: fifty seven. 345 00:16:58,960 --> 00:17:01,320 Speaker 4: So you know there's waste. If you want to put like. 346 00:17:01,280 --> 00:17:04,199 Speaker 3: The Mets in today at minus four hundred and the 347 00:17:04,240 --> 00:17:06,360 Speaker 3: Thunder together, you get about a minus two hundred. There, 348 00:17:06,440 --> 00:17:08,520 Speaker 3: crack cracks, like just ignoring me as I talk about 349 00:17:08,760 --> 00:17:13,480 Speaker 3: making future wagers, future parla wagers together. But if you're 350 00:17:13,520 --> 00:17:15,359 Speaker 3: so in need of that to happen, I got I 351 00:17:15,400 --> 00:17:17,480 Speaker 3: told you got that that bonus bet at like plus 352 00:17:17,560 --> 00:17:20,639 Speaker 3: one fifty. So I'm sticking with my Thunder there on 353 00:17:20,680 --> 00:17:23,119 Speaker 3: that wager. Look, I think the way to play this 354 00:17:23,400 --> 00:17:27,760 Speaker 3: is taking the series result, right. I have Thunder at 355 00:17:27,800 --> 00:17:29,520 Speaker 3: four to one at plus two hundred. It's a wager 356 00:17:29,560 --> 00:17:34,480 Speaker 3: I have made, and I like the Thunder and five 357 00:17:34,520 --> 00:17:36,159 Speaker 3: in this series. Or you take the Thunder four to 358 00:17:36,160 --> 00:17:37,960 Speaker 3: two plus money there too. I mean, you know you 359 00:17:38,240 --> 00:17:41,000 Speaker 3: bet both of them, you'll walk away with some money there. 360 00:17:42,200 --> 00:17:47,679 Speaker 3: I think the series goes like most NBA series go, 361 00:17:47,800 --> 00:17:50,000 Speaker 3: when a team is better. The Thunder win Game one, 362 00:17:50,080 --> 00:17:53,560 Speaker 3: I think convincingly. Game two is probably closer. Game three 363 00:17:53,640 --> 00:17:55,960 Speaker 3: the Pacers win, and then game fourth close at home. 364 00:17:56,000 --> 00:17:57,960 Speaker 3: In Game five, the Thunder come back to Okay see 365 00:17:58,000 --> 00:17:59,960 Speaker 3: and win like we saw last night, kind of pulling 366 00:18:00,080 --> 00:18:04,240 Speaker 3: way at the end. The Thunder have shown in in 367 00:18:04,400 --> 00:18:07,800 Speaker 3: a game of every series that they haven't shown up 368 00:18:07,840 --> 00:18:10,440 Speaker 3: now against the Grizzlies. They came back of that game, right, Brian, 369 00:18:10,480 --> 00:18:12,440 Speaker 3: had won that game. They got blown out against the 370 00:18:12,520 --> 00:18:14,600 Speaker 3: Nuggets in the game, and got blown out against the Wolves. 371 00:18:14,600 --> 00:18:16,600 Speaker 3: So they're gonna have a game where they're not They're 372 00:18:16,640 --> 00:18:20,360 Speaker 3: just not there. But I just don't see the advantages 373 00:18:20,400 --> 00:18:25,240 Speaker 3: for Indiana in this matchup unless Oklahoma City just doesn't 374 00:18:25,240 --> 00:18:29,679 Speaker 3: play well for three games, four games, Brian. They have 375 00:18:29,720 --> 00:18:32,480 Speaker 3: so many ways to get offense. Sja is putting up 376 00:18:32,480 --> 00:18:35,000 Speaker 3: a casual thirty every game. You look up and you're like, oh, 377 00:18:36,080 --> 00:18:39,320 Speaker 3: thirty points again. You add in Chat, who I think 378 00:18:39,400 --> 00:18:42,000 Speaker 3: is playing far better than I expected right now in 379 00:18:42,000 --> 00:18:44,080 Speaker 3: the postseason. He's getting giving you a fifteen to night. 380 00:18:44,119 --> 00:18:47,439 Speaker 3: He's you know, routine, Brian, uh Williams played better at 381 00:18:47,440 --> 00:18:48,800 Speaker 3: the end of that last series. If he can play 382 00:18:48,800 --> 00:18:50,080 Speaker 3: as well as he has, you know, you throw a 383 00:18:50,119 --> 00:18:52,679 Speaker 3: couple of threes from Dord and Cruso hit some some 384 00:18:52,680 --> 00:18:55,440 Speaker 3: some threes at home, and I think they're they're cooking, 385 00:18:55,520 --> 00:18:59,680 Speaker 3: and I just the Do you notice last night when 386 00:18:59,680 --> 00:19:02,479 Speaker 3: the were playing with the tempo, they wanted what they 387 00:19:02,520 --> 00:19:05,160 Speaker 3: were doing with Halliburn early in the game. They were 388 00:19:05,160 --> 00:19:07,600 Speaker 3: doubling him as soon as he crossed mid court, and 389 00:19:07,640 --> 00:19:10,359 Speaker 3: the Pacers had no answers like Howiburn starts slow again 390 00:19:10,920 --> 00:19:12,520 Speaker 3: that they couldn't score. And then as soon as Nick 391 00:19:12,560 --> 00:19:15,800 Speaker 3: started missing more shots and have some turnovers, the Pacers 392 00:19:15,840 --> 00:19:18,080 Speaker 3: got to play more up tempo push the ball, which 393 00:19:18,119 --> 00:19:21,000 Speaker 3: not allowed the Nicks accept their defense and say they're 394 00:19:21,000 --> 00:19:22,919 Speaker 3: gonna run a Hallieburn and say okay, okay, fine, like 395 00:19:23,240 --> 00:19:25,640 Speaker 3: someone else beat us please, And I think they're fine 396 00:19:25,680 --> 00:19:28,080 Speaker 3: with that with that strategy. So that's how I see 397 00:19:28,080 --> 00:19:31,040 Speaker 3: the series going. I took the plus two hundred there 398 00:19:31,119 --> 00:19:35,240 Speaker 3: thunder to win the series four to one, and that's 399 00:19:35,240 --> 00:19:36,840 Speaker 3: the way I'm playing it. Crack, and there's other things 400 00:19:36,840 --> 00:19:40,199 Speaker 3: you can do where you could take highest points scorer 401 00:19:40,280 --> 00:19:42,800 Speaker 3: and most rebounds, and there's some markets like that, but 402 00:19:43,080 --> 00:19:44,280 Speaker 3: I haven't tell you those yet. 403 00:19:44,480 --> 00:19:46,960 Speaker 1: I mean, look at the different I'm just looking at MGM. 404 00:19:47,680 --> 00:19:50,560 Speaker 1: If you click on NBA, then you click on series, 405 00:19:50,600 --> 00:19:53,399 Speaker 1: but the different types of waste to bet, Like you said, 406 00:19:53,840 --> 00:19:57,560 Speaker 1: not just player props, not game props, the series betting. 407 00:19:58,600 --> 00:20:01,200 Speaker 1: I've clicked done that thing and I get a series price. No, 408 00:20:01,680 --> 00:20:05,440 Speaker 1: you got some really really amazing different ways to bet 409 00:20:05,480 --> 00:20:09,000 Speaker 1: this guy. I didn't even know series total games, total 410 00:20:09,080 --> 00:20:12,440 Speaker 1: games over four and a half minus three seventy five. Boy, 411 00:20:12,480 --> 00:20:16,600 Speaker 1: that's sound. You know it can't be for nothing, Canada. 412 00:20:16,600 --> 00:20:18,400 Speaker 1: I mean, that's that's why you're laying three seventy five. 413 00:20:18,520 --> 00:20:20,520 Speaker 4: It can if the Thunder don't have that bad game, 414 00:20:20,760 --> 00:20:21,320 Speaker 4: I think, but. 415 00:20:23,440 --> 00:20:24,000 Speaker 1: Thirty five. 416 00:20:24,520 --> 00:20:28,440 Speaker 3: I also took exact I took the four to one series, 417 00:20:28,680 --> 00:20:31,920 Speaker 3: also took the exact outcome of the games Thunder Thunder Pacers. 418 00:20:31,920 --> 00:20:37,160 Speaker 3: Thunder Thunder was plus six twenty five. So I thought 419 00:20:37,200 --> 00:20:40,160 Speaker 3: that's a pretty good wager, right, I mean, I guess 420 00:20:40,160 --> 00:20:42,520 Speaker 3: it could go Thunder Thunder, Thunder, Pacers, Thunder. I might 421 00:20:42,560 --> 00:20:46,440 Speaker 3: bet on that one too. I just I don't see 422 00:20:46,440 --> 00:20:50,479 Speaker 3: this being more than a five game series. And if 423 00:20:50,520 --> 00:20:52,800 Speaker 3: I'm wrong, I'm wrong. I guess I could always play 424 00:20:52,880 --> 00:20:55,440 Speaker 3: Game five a certain way just to make sure I 425 00:20:55,640 --> 00:20:57,520 Speaker 3: don't amount out some money in this one. 426 00:20:58,800 --> 00:21:01,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, like I could see I could see the Pacers 427 00:21:01,640 --> 00:21:05,280 Speaker 2: winning two games. I could see it, of course. Yeah, 428 00:21:05,320 --> 00:21:09,720 Speaker 2: but man, that Thunder defense is a lot to deal with. 429 00:21:10,320 --> 00:21:13,640 Speaker 2: They turn you over. They've had the best defense all 430 00:21:13,680 --> 00:21:17,399 Speaker 2: season long, and the individual defenders that they can just 431 00:21:18,080 --> 00:21:21,359 Speaker 2: throw at Halliburton and make life miserable for him, Like 432 00:21:21,400 --> 00:21:24,119 Speaker 2: what we saw what the Pacers did to Brunson last night. 433 00:21:24,359 --> 00:21:27,119 Speaker 2: Okay See, can absolutely do that to Halliburton. He's the 434 00:21:27,160 --> 00:21:30,200 Speaker 2: table setter for the other guys that could really mess 435 00:21:30,280 --> 00:21:33,640 Speaker 2: up Indiana's offense. So it's hard for me. Some people 436 00:21:33,680 --> 00:21:36,520 Speaker 2: don't even see the Pacers winning two games. I could 437 00:21:36,520 --> 00:21:39,560 Speaker 2: see a path toward them winning two games. You mentioned it. 438 00:21:39,640 --> 00:21:43,280 Speaker 2: You think of Game three the Western Conference Finals in 439 00:21:43,320 --> 00:21:47,640 Speaker 2: a series where eventually, in a closeout game, you had 440 00:21:47,680 --> 00:21:51,359 Speaker 2: okay See hold Minnesota to nine points in the first quarter, 441 00:21:51,480 --> 00:21:55,040 Speaker 2: like they had more turnovers than shots in the first 442 00:21:55,080 --> 00:21:58,439 Speaker 2: half Minnesota did in a series that was decided like 443 00:21:58,480 --> 00:22:02,640 Speaker 2: that Game three, somehow OKAC loses by forty two. They 444 00:22:02,680 --> 00:22:05,520 Speaker 2: just didn't show up. As SGA said, with the right 445 00:22:05,640 --> 00:22:11,080 Speaker 2: energy or focus, and it's like they are immature, incredibly talented, 446 00:22:11,080 --> 00:22:13,719 Speaker 2: but they are immature at times in a series, so 447 00:22:13,760 --> 00:22:16,600 Speaker 2: they might have that dud game. And also that the 448 00:22:16,640 --> 00:22:18,879 Speaker 2: Pacers are good enough I think to just win a 449 00:22:18,920 --> 00:22:22,040 Speaker 2: game that maybe Okay See doesn't fall asleep at the wheel. 450 00:22:22,400 --> 00:22:24,439 Speaker 2: I do think that the Pacers are capable of just 451 00:22:24,520 --> 00:22:27,000 Speaker 2: winning a game, so I could see it going six. 452 00:22:29,280 --> 00:22:31,359 Speaker 1: Do you have anything? Do you have anything yet? Anything? 453 00:22:31,600 --> 00:22:31,679 Speaker 5: Like? 454 00:22:31,720 --> 00:22:36,000 Speaker 1: After you have today's game? What is the human nature? Human? 455 00:22:36,440 --> 00:22:38,800 Speaker 1: You know, our condition made up of? Well, now I 456 00:22:38,800 --> 00:22:41,879 Speaker 1: gotta bet something in the finals. What was your first instinct? 457 00:22:41,880 --> 00:22:43,640 Speaker 1: Did you? But did you bet even well, it sounds 458 00:22:43,680 --> 00:22:46,679 Speaker 1: like Jeff you already had some pending thing, so he 459 00:22:46,760 --> 00:22:49,440 Speaker 1: probably didn't bet anything after Brian, you have been anything 460 00:22:49,480 --> 00:22:50,560 Speaker 1: with the finals yet. 461 00:22:51,200 --> 00:22:54,080 Speaker 2: I haven't because what I really like the most for 462 00:22:54,160 --> 00:22:58,359 Speaker 2: you is the rebounding props. I think that Holme, Grin 463 00:22:58,600 --> 00:23:03,280 Speaker 2: and Hartenstein are to the Pacers alive on the glass, 464 00:23:03,480 --> 00:23:05,919 Speaker 2: you know, So that's the first thing I thought of. 465 00:23:06,240 --> 00:23:09,960 Speaker 2: I like Okac in the series. I love okayc to 466 00:23:10,000 --> 00:23:10,720 Speaker 2: win the series. 467 00:23:10,880 --> 00:23:14,679 Speaker 1: I got didn't fire you can't because of the big juice. 468 00:23:15,040 --> 00:23:18,400 Speaker 1: How about Jeff that you do do anything after the series. 469 00:23:18,480 --> 00:23:20,040 Speaker 3: No, I mean I took, yeah, I took. I took 470 00:23:20,080 --> 00:23:21,840 Speaker 3: the thunder to win the series four to one. 471 00:23:22,280 --> 00:23:26,199 Speaker 1: So okay, you did, right, I did? Yeah, over like 472 00:23:26,240 --> 00:23:27,879 Speaker 1: two to one something, Yeah. 473 00:23:28,040 --> 00:23:28,840 Speaker 4: Yeah, two to one. 474 00:23:28,840 --> 00:23:31,600 Speaker 3: So it's interesting. There are other that was bet mgm. 475 00:23:31,640 --> 00:23:36,040 Speaker 3: There's other places that it's interesting. They offer exact amount 476 00:23:36,080 --> 00:23:39,879 Speaker 3: of games, five games at plus two thirty, okay, but 477 00:23:39,920 --> 00:23:43,760 Speaker 3: then the exact outcome to me, the Crust score four 478 00:23:43,760 --> 00:23:46,560 Speaker 3: to one is plus two fifty. Okay, so the twenty 479 00:23:46,600 --> 00:23:49,480 Speaker 3: set difference in the same result. Maybe it's not winning five. 480 00:23:50,000 --> 00:23:52,439 Speaker 3: So you know, you could you can find some you know, 481 00:23:52,520 --> 00:23:57,440 Speaker 3: some of those things. So so, Brian, you can rebound, 482 00:23:57,480 --> 00:24:01,359 Speaker 3: so you can wager own series player prop on in 483 00:24:01,480 --> 00:24:06,119 Speaker 3: some places, some shops, rebounder leader, the rebounding leader for 484 00:24:06,160 --> 00:24:09,080 Speaker 3: the series. Can I chet Holmgrit's minus two hundred hardensteins 485 00:24:09,119 --> 00:24:10,480 Speaker 3: plus one ninety. 486 00:24:10,480 --> 00:24:13,160 Speaker 2: Minus two hundred Wow? Holy cow? Okay? 487 00:24:13,200 --> 00:24:16,080 Speaker 3: Yeah, well, I mean, okay, how about this. Guess what 488 00:24:16,560 --> 00:24:19,119 Speaker 3: SJ is for points leader for the series. 489 00:24:19,560 --> 00:24:26,280 Speaker 2: You will never guess. Uh, it sounds like it's something astronomical. Well, 490 00:24:26,359 --> 00:24:31,800 Speaker 2: like I'll say points leader in the series minus. I 491 00:24:31,840 --> 00:24:36,400 Speaker 2: don't even know seven fifty something out like outlandish. 492 00:24:36,040 --> 00:24:37,520 Speaker 4: Thirty five hundred. 493 00:24:38,080 --> 00:24:41,360 Speaker 1: Wow, I'm ucking to take twenty five. 494 00:24:43,320 --> 00:24:45,720 Speaker 3: Minus five hundred. 495 00:24:46,400 --> 00:24:49,000 Speaker 2: I thought I was saying something outlandish. I needed to 496 00:24:49,320 --> 00:24:52,280 Speaker 2: like multiply my outlandish five. 497 00:24:53,920 --> 00:24:55,120 Speaker 4: So okay, So would you play? 498 00:24:55,160 --> 00:24:58,360 Speaker 3: So then would you play like Halliburn or si Okam 499 00:24:59,200 --> 00:25:02,760 Speaker 3: just af if s J gets hurt, I meant Siakham 500 00:25:02,760 --> 00:25:04,640 Speaker 3: at plus twenty eight hundred to twenty eight to one, 501 00:25:05,000 --> 00:25:08,840 Speaker 3: holly Burn is sixty to one, Jesus plus six thousand, 502 00:25:09,480 --> 00:25:12,119 Speaker 3: Jalen Williams is actually second twenty five. I would not 503 00:25:12,119 --> 00:25:15,240 Speaker 3: bet on Jalen Williams. So I feel like that's worth 504 00:25:15,400 --> 00:25:18,399 Speaker 3: like holle Burn, I mean, I can't do it. I 505 00:25:18,400 --> 00:25:20,280 Speaker 3: can't bet on how I burned to score. That's gonna 506 00:25:20,400 --> 00:25:23,880 Speaker 3: it's gonna maybe crazy maybe Siakham maybe again. 507 00:25:24,520 --> 00:25:26,120 Speaker 1: I guess bet. 508 00:25:26,080 --> 00:25:28,680 Speaker 3: So Siakam is somehow I see that again, Like look 509 00:25:28,720 --> 00:25:31,200 Speaker 3: about who played great last night and played thirty eight 510 00:25:31,280 --> 00:25:34,600 Speaker 3: or thirty nine in game two? He's gonna have Jalen Williams. 511 00:25:34,640 --> 00:25:37,280 Speaker 3: I think on them right, probably makes sense. He's not 512 00:25:37,440 --> 00:25:40,800 Speaker 3: scoring thirty points and against Jalen Williams it's just that 513 00:25:40,800 --> 00:25:43,119 Speaker 3: that the matchups just don't make sense in this series. 514 00:25:43,160 --> 00:25:46,080 Speaker 3: For for for the Pacers have to shoot. They were 515 00:25:46,160 --> 00:25:48,080 Speaker 3: fifty three percent last night for most of the game 516 00:25:48,119 --> 00:25:52,040 Speaker 3: from three. That's how they have to shoot in this series. 517 00:25:52,160 --> 00:25:54,560 Speaker 3: I think, unless okay, he just doesn't play well, which 518 00:25:54,560 --> 00:25:57,640 Speaker 3: is certainly. I mean it's possible. They're a young team, 519 00:25:57,960 --> 00:26:00,000 Speaker 3: but that Denver, that game seven to win, I think 520 00:26:00,480 --> 00:26:02,520 Speaker 3: felt like a championship for them like that. That was 521 00:26:02,520 --> 00:26:05,160 Speaker 3: such an important win for them, for their young their 522 00:26:05,200 --> 00:26:09,600 Speaker 3: young psyche. So I can certainly happen, right, the Pacers 523 00:26:09,640 --> 00:26:10,560 Speaker 3: can make it happen. 524 00:26:10,560 --> 00:26:11,400 Speaker 4: I doubt it. 525 00:26:13,359 --> 00:26:15,640 Speaker 1: I want to see that. You're telling me you could 526 00:26:15,640 --> 00:26:18,840 Speaker 1: take I mean, God forbid something happens. 527 00:26:19,200 --> 00:26:21,640 Speaker 3: Yeah, well there's no it's it's it's not on. It's 528 00:26:21,640 --> 00:26:21,879 Speaker 3: not on. 529 00:26:22,720 --> 00:26:23,399 Speaker 1: I'm looking at MG. 530 00:26:23,520 --> 00:26:27,600 Speaker 3: I'm like you not everyone offers those sort of serious 531 00:26:27,600 --> 00:26:31,160 Speaker 3: player props. Yeah, but they're they're. 532 00:26:31,240 --> 00:26:32,879 Speaker 1: Mad that some more added. 533 00:26:33,000 --> 00:26:36,320 Speaker 3: Yeah yeah, I know, like added throughout you know, so 534 00:26:36,320 --> 00:26:36,960 Speaker 3: so tip. 535 00:26:36,800 --> 00:26:40,560 Speaker 2: Off even within the same sports book. You gotta you 536 00:26:40,600 --> 00:26:42,920 Speaker 2: gotta pay attention. Because I was looking at that last 537 00:26:42,960 --> 00:26:46,080 Speaker 2: night where I forget exactly what it was, but it 538 00:26:46,119 --> 00:26:49,720 Speaker 2: was say, like Pacers plus two and a half. Right, 539 00:26:49,800 --> 00:26:52,520 Speaker 2: so you're expecting if you're betting that, you're expecting the 540 00:26:52,560 --> 00:26:56,000 Speaker 2: series to at least go six games, unless you're saying 541 00:26:56,000 --> 00:26:58,320 Speaker 2: the Pacers are gonna win four to win. But you're 542 00:26:58,320 --> 00:27:02,520 Speaker 2: basically saying it's gonna six games. And it was one price, yeah, 543 00:27:02,560 --> 00:27:04,399 Speaker 2: and then there was another price a little bit too 544 00:27:04,440 --> 00:27:06,920 Speaker 2: far off, where it was the series to go over 545 00:27:07,080 --> 00:27:08,480 Speaker 2: five and a half games. 546 00:27:08,720 --> 00:27:08,960 Speaker 3: Yeah. 547 00:27:09,080 --> 00:27:11,679 Speaker 2: Right, So it's it's two different ways to get to 548 00:27:11,800 --> 00:27:16,000 Speaker 2: Pacers or OKAC wins the series in six what? But 549 00:27:16,600 --> 00:27:19,200 Speaker 2: depending on the price, it might be off a little 550 00:27:19,240 --> 00:27:22,240 Speaker 2: bit more than it should be. Right it is, you 551 00:27:22,240 --> 00:27:23,160 Speaker 2: got to pay attention to. 552 00:27:23,160 --> 00:27:23,480 Speaker 4: I found it. 553 00:27:23,600 --> 00:27:26,440 Speaker 3: Yeah, series end in six games. It's bet MGM plus 554 00:27:26,520 --> 00:27:29,560 Speaker 3: two seventy five thunder to win the series four to 555 00:27:29,560 --> 00:27:31,600 Speaker 3: two plus four to twenty five. 556 00:27:32,440 --> 00:27:34,800 Speaker 2: See there you go, right, unless you think the Pacers 557 00:27:34,800 --> 00:27:35,720 Speaker 2: are winning four to two. 558 00:27:36,200 --> 00:27:38,679 Speaker 3: But the Pacers winning four to two is plus twelve hundred, 559 00:27:39,480 --> 00:27:42,760 Speaker 3: So you would be better off just betting correct series results, 560 00:27:43,800 --> 00:27:46,840 Speaker 3: right plus four to twenty five and or plus twelve 561 00:27:46,920 --> 00:27:48,520 Speaker 3: hundred or both of them if you think it's going 562 00:27:48,560 --> 00:27:51,000 Speaker 3: six games. So make sure to probably some of this out. 563 00:27:51,160 --> 00:27:53,000 Speaker 3: I cracks like deep it to trying to find that 564 00:27:53,000 --> 00:27:54,959 Speaker 3: that point. Second tell you're trying to find that points 565 00:27:55,400 --> 00:27:58,200 Speaker 3: that points that debt on on Hollyburden sixty to one 566 00:27:58,800 --> 00:28:02,879 Speaker 3: series in points. But finals MVP SGA is a heavy favorite. 567 00:28:03,400 --> 00:28:06,320 Speaker 3: I can't bet anyone else, right, I mean, I guess 568 00:28:06,320 --> 00:28:08,160 Speaker 3: if you think the Pacers are gonna win, maybe Siakham 569 00:28:08,160 --> 00:28:11,159 Speaker 3: wins again. He won Eastern Conference MVP. I think that 570 00:28:11,200 --> 00:28:12,720 Speaker 3: Hallyburn thought he was gonna win that award. Do you 571 00:28:12,760 --> 00:28:15,720 Speaker 3: see that his face when they gave it to Sam No, 572 00:28:15,760 --> 00:28:17,800 Speaker 3: I didn't. I think I think Hollyburn thought he was 573 00:28:17,840 --> 00:28:20,879 Speaker 3: gonna get it. But wow, he did so. 574 00:28:21,240 --> 00:28:24,560 Speaker 2: I went to very close vote Reggie Miller. For what 575 00:28:24,600 --> 00:28:28,679 Speaker 2: it's worth, he voted on Halliburton. But yeah, the vote 576 00:28:28,840 --> 00:28:30,679 Speaker 2: I took a screenshot of it was kind of interesting 577 00:28:30,680 --> 00:28:33,240 Speaker 2: because it was very very close between those two guys. 578 00:28:33,680 --> 00:28:34,760 Speaker 2: I'll get it for you real quick. 579 00:28:35,480 --> 00:28:36,840 Speaker 4: Is Is it? 580 00:28:36,880 --> 00:28:42,640 Speaker 3: Is? It? Should it be accepted that Reggie Miller showed 581 00:28:42,720 --> 00:28:46,600 Speaker 3: up to the game wearing all black saying that Tonight's 582 00:28:46,640 --> 00:28:48,920 Speaker 3: the end of the Knicks while he's calling the game 583 00:28:49,040 --> 00:28:53,360 Speaker 3: as a supposed and partial commentator of the game. I 584 00:28:53,400 --> 00:28:56,480 Speaker 3: like it look I like rivalries, I like hatred and sports. 585 00:28:56,880 --> 00:29:00,240 Speaker 3: I certainly hate teams myself. But that's a little bit 586 00:29:00,280 --> 00:29:02,560 Speaker 3: like uncool, right, Like you're supposed to you're supposed to 587 00:29:02,600 --> 00:29:06,560 Speaker 3: be partial during the game, and to show up uh 588 00:29:06,680 --> 00:29:08,720 Speaker 3: in a in a black suit and basically say like 589 00:29:08,760 --> 00:29:10,040 Speaker 3: this is the end of it for the Knicks. I 590 00:29:10,040 --> 00:29:12,440 Speaker 3: thought that was a little bit off putting if if 591 00:29:12,440 --> 00:29:13,960 Speaker 3: you're a Knicks fan trying to watch this game. 592 00:29:14,960 --> 00:29:18,959 Speaker 2: For me, I think as long as the broadcast doesn't 593 00:29:19,000 --> 00:29:21,640 Speaker 2: sound like that, and I don't think Reggie has sounded 594 00:29:21,680 --> 00:29:26,840 Speaker 2: like Yeah, I think Reggie has been very fair. 595 00:29:27,280 --> 00:29:27,480 Speaker 1: You know. 596 00:29:27,560 --> 00:29:30,080 Speaker 2: You know how it goes with fans because Reggie is 597 00:29:30,120 --> 00:29:33,360 Speaker 2: a former pacer. Any a lot of Knicks fans will be, oh, like, 598 00:29:33,560 --> 00:29:35,920 Speaker 2: he hates our team and he's always he probably doesn't 599 00:29:35,960 --> 00:29:39,200 Speaker 2: know he he does, but he doesn't sound like it 600 00:29:39,280 --> 00:29:41,840 Speaker 2: on the broadcast, you know. So it's a dangerous thing 601 00:29:42,000 --> 00:29:45,280 Speaker 2: that you're gonna make people think that you're completely biased 602 00:29:46,040 --> 00:29:50,560 Speaker 2: when he's not. With his commentating, I would argue, if anything, 603 00:29:50,600 --> 00:29:53,239 Speaker 2: he's gone above and beyond to give the Knicks their 604 00:29:53,280 --> 00:29:56,400 Speaker 2: flowers during a series that he's been one sided. 605 00:29:56,960 --> 00:29:58,760 Speaker 3: I was doing radio last night during the show. So 606 00:29:58,800 --> 00:30:01,800 Speaker 3: I had to. I had to. I was I had to. 607 00:30:01,800 --> 00:30:04,240 Speaker 3: I had a game on mute and I was game 608 00:30:04,600 --> 00:30:08,800 Speaker 3: casting sky Wings because that's not on television while I 609 00:30:08,920 --> 00:30:12,360 Speaker 3: was live betting, I did. I hit a live a 610 00:30:12,440 --> 00:30:16,040 Speaker 3: live bet player prop during the old sky Wings game. 611 00:30:16,560 --> 00:30:19,560 Speaker 3: You can wage on Angelies to miss her first shot 612 00:30:19,960 --> 00:30:22,400 Speaker 3: not and there are are exchanges, though they're not on 613 00:30:22,400 --> 00:30:25,880 Speaker 3: on sportsbooks. It's six and six for six, six six 614 00:30:25,920 --> 00:30:27,600 Speaker 3: for six so far miss her first shot? 615 00:30:27,720 --> 00:30:28,640 Speaker 1: Wow? 616 00:30:28,680 --> 00:30:29,040 Speaker 2: Interesting? 617 00:30:29,120 --> 00:30:31,640 Speaker 3: Yeah, six for six again. You have to parlay it, 618 00:30:31,680 --> 00:30:33,480 Speaker 3: I think on some of those exchanges to make money 619 00:30:33,480 --> 00:30:36,000 Speaker 3: on it. But worth noting six for she airball the 620 00:30:36,160 --> 00:30:38,400 Speaker 3: eighteen footer last night to start her night. 621 00:30:39,160 --> 00:30:42,000 Speaker 2: That's a sweet way to win a bet, right there. 622 00:30:42,040 --> 00:30:45,880 Speaker 2: You know someone who never misses the first shot, that 623 00:30:45,920 --> 00:30:49,200 Speaker 2: would be Isaac Low and Cron cash money every single time. 624 00:30:49,240 --> 00:30:52,240 Speaker 2: Normally a finger roll loves the finger roll the first 625 00:30:52,240 --> 00:30:54,040 Speaker 2: shot in there.

But what's even 633 00:31:20,760 --> 00:31:23,680 Speaker 6: bigger the exploits of Game six of the Eastern Conference 634 00:31:23,720 --> 00:31:26,400 Speaker 6: Finals on Saturday night is the Indiana Pacers defeated the 635 00:31:26,400 --> 00:31:29,120 Speaker 6: New York Knicks one twenty five to one eight to 636 00:31:29,160 --> 00:31:31,360 Speaker 6: take the series four games to two in advance to 637 00:31:31,360 --> 00:31:33,480 Speaker 6: the Finals for the first time in twenty five years. 638 00:31:33,840 --> 00:31:37,600 Speaker 6: Pascal Siakam thirty one points, name series MVP, Tyrese Haliburton 639 00:31:37,640 --> 00:31:40,600 Speaker 6: twenty one points and thirteen assists.

All right. 720 00:35:52,640 --> 00:35:56,200 Speaker 3: I'm gonna go with baseball as well. I will take 721 00:35:56,480 --> 00:35:59,360 Speaker 3: the Mets team total over four and a half against 722 00:35:59,360 --> 00:36:02,719 Speaker 3: the Rockies today. The Rockies are throwing a pitcher with 723 00:36:02,800 --> 00:36:07,279 Speaker 3: an ERA near ten. They give up a ton of runs. 724 00:36:07,320 --> 00:36:10,040 Speaker 3: Actually want to streak of till yesterday four straight games 725 00:36:10,040 --> 00:36:12,680 Speaker 3: where the team total of the opponent was under But 726 00:36:12,760 --> 00:36:17,080 Speaker 3: yesterday the Mets got back on track one eight to two. 727 00:36:17,960 --> 00:36:20,480 Speaker 3: So I'll go with the Mets here minus one seventy 728 00:36:20,480 --> 00:36:24,480 Speaker 3: five at NMGM here over four and a half runs. 729 00:36:24,680 --> 00:36:29,279 Speaker 3: Also yesterday, I took the Rockies to win under nine 730 00:36:29,280 --> 00:36:31,560 Speaker 3: and a half games in the month of June. They 731 00:36:31,600 --> 00:36:36,040 Speaker 3: only have nine wins this baseball season. They're winning ten 732 00:36:36,120 --> 00:36:42,719 Speaker 3: games in June. Okay, take my money, all right. Did 733 00:36:42,719 --> 00:36:44,239 Speaker 3: you play the Marlins though for a couple of games, 734 00:36:44,280 --> 00:36:46,440 Speaker 3: so maybe that's why. But I like the Mets here 735 00:36:46,440 --> 00:36:48,760 Speaker 3: to score over four and a half runs against palm 736 00:36:48,840 --> 00:36:52,359 Speaker 3: Quist oh to three the era of eight point seven 737 00:36:52,400 --> 00:36:55,560 Speaker 3: eight with a whip of over two during the Mets Day, 738 00:36:55,560 --> 00:36:57,120 Speaker 3: score over four and a half runs. 739 00:36:57,560 --> 00:37:00,279 Speaker 2: Okay, I'll keep with the baseball theme here. It's thought 740 00:37:00,280 --> 00:37:05,120 Speaker 2: about going WNBA, but I've loved this play numerous times 741 00:37:05,160 --> 00:37:09,319 Speaker 2: this year. When the Gram pitches, you just you take 742 00:37:09,360 --> 00:37:12,080 Speaker 2: the under in the game. It's a seven and a 743 00:37:12,120 --> 00:37:15,320 Speaker 2: half today against my Cardinals. Don't love taking a game 744 00:37:15,360 --> 00:37:17,960 Speaker 2: with my Cardinals involved where I have to root for 745 00:37:18,000 --> 00:37:21,040 Speaker 2: no runs. But it's just a good play. It's a 746 00:37:21,080 --> 00:37:24,680 Speaker 2: solid play. Krack always says his allegiance is his bankroll, 747 00:37:24,840 --> 00:37:28,360 Speaker 2: you know. So for the parlay platter, I'll take Cards 748 00:37:28,560 --> 00:37:31,719 Speaker 2: Rangers under seven and a half. The Gram has been 749 00:37:31,800 --> 00:37:34,960 Speaker 2: an absolute beast, and the Rangers are if you not 750 00:37:35,640 --> 00:37:38,880 Speaker 2: thrive in giving him run support. So I'll take the 751 00:37:38,960 --> 00:37:41,359 Speaker 2: under here. Eric Fetti, for what it's worth, is going 752 00:37:41,400 --> 00:37:45,120 Speaker 2: for the Redbirds, And yeah, you might need to do 753 00:37:45,120 --> 00:37:48,000 Speaker 2: a little bit of homework on him. It's extensive stuff. 754 00:37:48,040 --> 00:37:52,320 Speaker 2: So bear with me. He's pitching against the Rangers today. Okay, 755 00:37:52,520 --> 00:37:55,239 Speaker 2: So I like the under seven and a half in 756 00:37:55,280 --> 00:37:57,080 Speaker 2: that matchup. I'll go with that. And then you could 757 00:37:57,120 --> 00:37:59,120 Speaker 2: dice it up a few different ways. If you want 758 00:37:59,160 --> 00:38:01,960 Speaker 2: to go with the nurfy, you could go with no 759 00:38:02,080 --> 00:38:05,319 Speaker 2: run first inning. I think it's a minus minus dollar 760 00:38:05,640 --> 00:38:08,120 Speaker 2: thirty five right in that neighborhood. You could go under 761 00:38:08,120 --> 00:38:10,200 Speaker 2: two and a half runs in the first three innings. 762 00:38:10,200 --> 00:38:13,160 Speaker 2: Crack sometimes you like those plays. I think those are 763 00:38:13,200 --> 00:38:15,560 Speaker 2: all on the table here. But I'll take the game 764 00:38:15,640 --> 00:38:16,640 Speaker 2: under seven and a half. 765 00:38:17,320 --> 00:38:22,600 Speaker 3: I hit an under three yesterday with the Royals under 766 00:38:22,719 --> 00:38:25,880 Speaker 3: half a run against Schooball and the Roles scored one 767 00:38:25,960 --> 00:38:30,360 Speaker 3: run the whole game. Yeah, so yeah, so uh that 768 00:38:30,480 --> 00:38:32,600 Speaker 3: was our to that was two it was uh it 769 00:38:32,640 --> 00:38:35,480 Speaker 3: was yesterday, Yeah, one nothing. It was on the wrong day. 770 00:38:35,719 --> 00:38:38,160 Speaker 3: They won one nothing, but then they scored that run 771 00:38:38,200 --> 00:38:39,880 Speaker 3: like in the eighth inning or something. So I was 772 00:38:39,960 --> 00:38:42,319 Speaker 3: right thinking, Yeah, school ball is incredible, man, I mean 773 00:38:42,400 --> 00:38:46,040 Speaker 3: taking his Yeah, he only had seven strikeouts only I 774 00:38:46,040 --> 00:38:48,400 Speaker 3: think that was probably six and a half. Seven a 775 00:38:48,400 --> 00:38:50,640 Speaker 3: half is typically where strikeout prop is at. But he 776 00:38:50,719 --> 00:38:53,399 Speaker 3: allowed two hits over seven innings and loss. So that's 777 00:38:54,080 --> 00:38:55,759 Speaker 3: so he did not actually end up losing, but they 778 00:38:55,760 --> 00:38:56,680 Speaker 3: did not did not win the game. 779 00:38:56,680 --> 00:39:01,360 Speaker 2: Put it like that, how you must sounds so spoiled. 780 00:39:01,560 --> 00:39:03,800 Speaker 2: I get there's gotta be betters out there where you 781 00:39:03,880 --> 00:39:06,719 Speaker 2: might take the over strikeout prop for schoolbl and he's 782 00:39:06,800 --> 00:39:09,040 Speaker 2: just amazing that day. And you're like, I got hooked 783 00:39:09,040 --> 00:39:11,279 Speaker 2: on the strikeout prop. You know, I'm sure. 784 00:39:11,280 --> 00:39:13,040 Speaker 3: I don't know if you get hooked on a strikeout prop. 785 00:39:13,080 --> 00:39:14,520 Speaker 3: I feel like that's a little different than like a 786 00:39:14,640 --> 00:39:18,520 Speaker 3: WNBA total or something like that. I the other night, man, 787 00:39:18,880 --> 00:39:22,440 Speaker 3: this is why gambling just crack. Do you have a 788 00:39:22,440 --> 00:39:25,040 Speaker 3: player prop over eighteen and a half? You get fifteen 789 00:39:25,080 --> 00:39:28,799 Speaker 3: points at halftime, eighteen points with six minutes left in 790 00:39:28,800 --> 00:39:29,719 Speaker 3: the third quarter. 791 00:39:29,960 --> 00:39:32,360 Speaker 1: Blowing him out or some or no, did he just stop? 792 00:39:32,640 --> 00:39:33,239 Speaker 1: He just didn't go. 793 00:39:33,400 --> 00:39:37,840 Speaker 3: There was a she Tina Charles and over eighteen minutes 794 00:39:38,160 --> 00:39:40,560 Speaker 3: to end the game, sixteen minutes say zero points? 795 00:39:40,920 --> 00:39:43,440 Speaker 2: Wow, some of the grossest stuff too. It's not just 796 00:39:43,520 --> 00:39:46,560 Speaker 2: that she didn't get that final point. It's what else 797 00:39:46,640 --> 00:39:48,840 Speaker 2: happened though, Jeff, Like she scored. 798 00:39:48,480 --> 00:39:51,200 Speaker 3: But yeah, I've had a travel and there was like, yeah, 799 00:39:51,239 --> 00:39:54,520 Speaker 3: there's a score in an offensive foul, but me she 800 00:39:54,560 --> 00:39:57,480 Speaker 3: played thirty four minutes Suggage was in the lineup. But 801 00:39:57,640 --> 00:40:01,520 Speaker 3: also such as life, that's gambling for you, brutal. 802 00:40:02,400 --> 00:40:05,640 Speaker 2: What's your bet crack for the parlay platter? What is 803 00:40:05,680 --> 00:40:14,360 Speaker 2: it like the juice? I say again, okay, no problem, 804 00:40:14,400 --> 00:40:17,560 Speaker 2: we'll get that for you. All right, we move forward. 805 00:40:18,760 --> 00:40:21,319 Speaker 2: Oh what's going on? Happy Sunday to you. Hope your 806 00:40:21,360 --> 00:40:24,799 Speaker 2: day is off to a fantastic start. I'll tell you what. 807 00:40:24,840 --> 00:40:27,640 Speaker 2: We always talk about the NFL being a copycat league. 808 00:40:28,600 --> 00:40:32,480 Speaker 2: They might have company here relatively soon. Miles Turner of 809 00:40:32,520 --> 00:40:35,560 Speaker 2: the Pacers, he talked about this after the series win 810 00:40:35,680 --> 00:40:38,359 Speaker 2: last night. He said, Hey, the Pacers are a team 811 00:40:38,400 --> 00:40:41,320 Speaker 2: that the league is going to be modeling themselves after 812 00:40:41,480 --> 00:40:44,880 Speaker 2: going forward. And you could say something similar with OKC 813 00:40:45,040 --> 00:40:50,360 Speaker 2: as well. Right, they're young teams, athletic, deep, they're built 814 00:40:50,400 --> 00:40:53,560 Speaker 2: on depth, not the superstar model. They're not, you know, 815 00:40:54,120 --> 00:40:58,080 Speaker 2: getting two or three superstars together and pairing them that way. 816 00:40:58,200 --> 00:41:01,279 Speaker 2: So this is the present right now. These are the 817 00:41:01,280 --> 00:41:03,160 Speaker 2: two finals teams, and I think it's the future of 818 00:41:03,160 --> 00:41:05,920 Speaker 2: the NBA where you look at how the CBA has 819 00:41:06,000 --> 00:41:10,319 Speaker 2: been reworked and you really get hammered as a franchise 820 00:41:10,560 --> 00:41:12,879 Speaker 2: if you exceed the luxury tax and you get into 821 00:41:12,920 --> 00:41:16,440 Speaker 2: that second apron apron that they really hammer you. Man, 822 00:41:16,760 --> 00:41:21,400 Speaker 2: you gotta like sacrifice your first born and like you 823 00:41:21,480 --> 00:41:24,000 Speaker 2: have draft picks that are frozen, all kinds of stuff. 824 00:41:24,040 --> 00:41:27,920 Speaker 2: So teams just they can't build that way. It's not 825 00:41:27,960 --> 00:41:31,200 Speaker 2: a viable path. So the way the Pacers have done it, 826 00:41:31,320 --> 00:41:34,880 Speaker 2: the way OKC has done it, it's not the easiest 827 00:41:35,080 --> 00:41:37,680 Speaker 2: thing to build depth like that. But there's a ripple 828 00:41:37,680 --> 00:41:40,600 Speaker 2: effect here, and I could see, guys, I could see 829 00:41:40,880 --> 00:41:44,760 Speaker 2: NBA draft picks being valued a lot more going forward 830 00:41:44,760 --> 00:41:47,720 Speaker 2: than they used to be. Think about the NFL. NFL 831 00:41:47,760 --> 00:41:51,279 Speaker 2: teams highly value draft picks. You'll see some years where 832 00:41:51,280 --> 00:41:54,480 Speaker 2: it's like, oh, Randy Moss got dealt for a fourth rounder, 833 00:41:54,520 --> 00:41:58,120 Speaker 2: and you're like, what that's it. It's like, yeah, that's 834 00:41:58,120 --> 00:42:01,840 Speaker 2: how they value draft picks in these trades oftentimes. So 835 00:42:01,960 --> 00:42:05,479 Speaker 2: these days of like Rudy Gobert getting traded for five 836 00:42:05,600 --> 00:42:08,359 Speaker 2: first round picks, I just don't think we're gonna see 837 00:42:08,360 --> 00:42:11,640 Speaker 2: that nearly as commonly going forward. You can't build depth 838 00:42:11,840 --> 00:42:14,239 Speaker 2: like that. You need draft picks. And the way the 839 00:42:14,360 --> 00:42:17,680 Speaker 2: NFL does it with their teams. They use their draft picks, 840 00:42:17,840 --> 00:42:22,440 Speaker 2: they highly value them because you need those guys to 841 00:42:22,480 --> 00:42:27,120 Speaker 2: be young, cheap, those are your core guys. And I 842 00:42:27,160 --> 00:42:30,280 Speaker 2: think something similar will be happening here in the NBA. 843 00:42:30,360 --> 00:42:33,879 Speaker 2: Do I expect teams to never make trades for stars, No, 844 00:42:33,920 --> 00:42:37,560 Speaker 2: that's still gonna happen. But building through the draft, building 845 00:42:37,600 --> 00:42:40,000 Speaker 2: your depth up. You see it with these two teams 846 00:42:40,000 --> 00:42:42,200 Speaker 2: in the finals. Man teams are gonna mimic that, There's 847 00:42:42,239 --> 00:42:43,040 Speaker 2: no doubt about it. 848 00:42:44,040 --> 00:42:47,960 Speaker 3: Yeah. The thing that I that, I mean, you have 849 00:42:48,040 --> 00:42:53,880 Speaker 3: to now because of the convoluted, confusing salary cap Apron stuff. 850 00:42:53,920 --> 00:42:57,040 Speaker 3: I find this such an unforced error by the NBA 851 00:42:58,239 --> 00:43:02,239 Speaker 3: because A No one understands it, and B you do 852 00:43:02,280 --> 00:43:05,000 Speaker 3: you punish teams that draft and develop players so that 853 00:43:05,080 --> 00:43:07,560 Speaker 3: you want to pay like the guys that these teams 854 00:43:07,560 --> 00:43:11,759 Speaker 3: can't afford because it's weird Apron rules and I don't 855 00:43:11,800 --> 00:43:14,600 Speaker 3: find it great for the game. But yeah, I mean, 856 00:43:14,600 --> 00:43:16,680 Speaker 3: team's gonna have to draft and develop guys now because 857 00:43:16,680 --> 00:43:19,360 Speaker 3: they can't afford to keep everyone like okay, see should 858 00:43:19,400 --> 00:43:22,120 Speaker 3: have been able to afford to keep Hardenstein, Harnstein, like 859 00:43:22,120 --> 00:43:23,520 Speaker 3: they should have been able to do to afford that. 860 00:43:23,560 --> 00:43:25,359 Speaker 3: I mean, they do. The Nick should have been able 861 00:43:25,400 --> 00:43:27,520 Speaker 3: to afford that, and they weren't because of this this 862 00:43:27,600 --> 00:43:30,040 Speaker 3: second April, third Aprin thing. So yeah, you're right, Brian, 863 00:43:30,360 --> 00:43:34,360 Speaker 3: You're gonna have to build your team young now because 864 00:43:34,400 --> 00:43:36,680 Speaker 3: of that. And that changes the dynamics because we know 865 00:43:37,239 --> 00:43:41,680 Speaker 3: for so many years older teams tend to win championships. Okay, 866 00:43:41,680 --> 00:43:44,279 Speaker 3: see would break that model, and that's I think the 867 00:43:44,280 --> 00:43:45,080 Speaker 3: model of the future. 868 00:43:45,120 --> 00:43:47,279 Speaker 4: You have to do that to win consistently. 869 00:43:48,320 --> 00:43:51,400 Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, listen, of course teams want to copycat 870 00:43:51,440 --> 00:43:55,000 Speaker 1: with the thunder did, but you know they get I 871 00:43:55,040 --> 00:43:57,319 Speaker 1: mean really did they get once on lifetime trade that 872 00:43:57,640 --> 00:43:59,799 Speaker 1: pretty much made up their entire team. It's really not 873 00:43:59,840 --> 00:44:01,800 Speaker 1: so talked about as much as it should be. People 874 00:44:01,840 --> 00:44:06,200 Speaker 1: forgot they traded Paul George for Alexander and five, like 875 00:44:06,280 --> 00:44:09,040 Speaker 1: you guys just said, five first round draft picks. This 876 00:44:09,120 --> 00:44:12,000 Speaker 1: could really go down in history as maybe the most 877 00:44:12,080 --> 00:44:16,080 Speaker 1: lopsided trade in NBA history. I still think most teams, 878 00:44:16,160 --> 00:44:18,760 Speaker 1: especially big market teams, will go after the big stars 879 00:44:18,800 --> 00:44:22,800 Speaker 1: and free agency market and not value their future draft 880 00:44:22,840 --> 00:44:26,760 Speaker 1: picks as much. But the smaller market teams have seen 881 00:44:26,840 --> 00:44:31,280 Speaker 1: that stockpiling draft picks and building their team does work 882 00:44:31,320 --> 00:44:33,719 Speaker 1: like it has worked for the Thunder, So it is 883 00:44:33,760 --> 00:44:35,799 Speaker 1: an interesting topic to go over though. 884 00:44:36,880 --> 00:44:39,239 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think it's one of those deals where the 885 00:44:39,360 --> 00:44:42,320 Speaker 2: NFL it's just easy to understand. You might not understand. 886 00:44:42,320 --> 00:44:45,120 Speaker 2: I don't understand the NBA stuff like the second Apron 887 00:44:45,200 --> 00:44:49,160 Speaker 2: and the luxury tax thresholds. It's much more difficult. The 888 00:44:49,280 --> 00:44:51,799 Speaker 2: NFL is just like, here's the salary cap. It's two 889 00:44:51,880 --> 00:44:55,160 Speaker 2: hundred and sixty two hundred and sixty million dollars per 890 00:44:55,160 --> 00:44:57,840 Speaker 2: team or whatever it happens to be. Can't exceed that. 891 00:44:57,840 --> 00:45:01,040 Speaker 2: That's as easy as it gets. The NBA is different, 892 00:45:01,040 --> 00:45:03,440 Speaker 2: so like we don't have a hard salary cap, so 893 00:45:03,640 --> 00:45:06,960 Speaker 2: we had to you know, massage the CBA. And now 894 00:45:06,960 --> 00:45:10,960 Speaker 2: there's this second Apron penalization and I don't understand any 895 00:45:11,000 --> 00:45:13,799 Speaker 2: of that, but I do understand what it leads to, 896 00:45:14,320 --> 00:45:18,360 Speaker 2: and it leads to the league not allowing teams to 897 00:45:18,480 --> 00:45:22,279 Speaker 2: just stockpile superstars. You can't just grab three superstars, pay 898 00:45:22,320 --> 00:45:25,880 Speaker 2: them all, and you know, have a viable path to 899 00:45:25,920 --> 00:45:28,160 Speaker 2: a championship. You're gonna have no depth, You're gonna have 900 00:45:28,239 --> 00:45:31,640 Speaker 2: penalties galore, and so it discourages teams to do it. 901 00:45:32,680 --> 00:45:34,799 Speaker 2: So I get what it leads to. I just don't 902 00:45:34,880 --> 00:45:38,239 Speaker 2: understand how we got there to Jeff's point, but I 903 00:45:38,280 --> 00:45:40,440 Speaker 2: guess that that's what it leads to. Is what do 904 00:45:40,520 --> 00:45:43,360 Speaker 2: you guys prefer. Do you prefer parody or do you 905 00:45:43,520 --> 00:45:48,120 Speaker 2: prefer dynasties? Do you prefer a team consistently dominating? Because 906 00:45:48,520 --> 00:45:52,440 Speaker 2: the NBA, they prefer parody, otherwise they wouldn't have a 907 00:45:52,480 --> 00:45:54,880 Speaker 2: second Apron, they wouldn't have redone. The CBA. 908 00:45:55,560 --> 00:45:58,720 Speaker 3: Yeah, but that's that's not what's been successful in sports. 909 00:45:58,719 --> 00:46:00,880 Speaker 3: Not we watch. I'm not saying that ratings matter for 910 00:46:01,200 --> 00:46:05,440 Speaker 3: the discussion for all the time, but because the dynasties 911 00:46:05,480 --> 00:46:09,920 Speaker 3: turned to villains, and we watch or hate watch villains. 912 00:46:10,480 --> 00:46:12,040 Speaker 3: And I'm not saying this is the wrong way to 913 00:46:12,080 --> 00:46:14,719 Speaker 3: do things, but there's no villain in this in this 914 00:46:14,760 --> 00:46:17,279 Speaker 3: postseason right now, there's no villain. They're all nice guys, 915 00:46:17,280 --> 00:46:18,880 Speaker 3: which is fine, which I'm not saying you have to 916 00:46:18,880 --> 00:46:22,880 Speaker 3: be a but we watch. Whether you like or dislike 917 00:46:22,960 --> 00:46:26,120 Speaker 3: Lebron James, you're gonna watch or just like Steph Curry 918 00:46:26,120 --> 00:46:29,080 Speaker 3: and the Warriors, you're gonna watch the Chiefs. Right Like, 919 00:46:29,400 --> 00:46:32,399 Speaker 3: look when the NFL is most popular. It's when these 920 00:46:32,480 --> 00:46:36,880 Speaker 3: dynasties are going. We watch every Tom Brady game, like 921 00:46:36,920 --> 00:46:38,920 Speaker 3: them or hate him. Like you're watching the Patriots, You're 922 00:46:38,960 --> 00:46:42,400 Speaker 3: watching the Chiefs, and you're watching, you know, when the Yankees, 923 00:46:42,440 --> 00:46:45,000 Speaker 3: and like the Dodgers right now, they're they're the evil Empire, right, 924 00:46:45,040 --> 00:46:48,280 Speaker 3: They're not the Yankees anymore. To the Dodgers like these superpowers. 925 00:46:49,160 --> 00:46:53,160 Speaker 3: We watch them play more often than we do. When 926 00:46:53,239 --> 00:46:56,800 Speaker 3: you give this parody and the NBA has not really 927 00:46:56,800 --> 00:46:59,040 Speaker 3: had this though, Brian, Right, you look at the champions 928 00:46:59,040 --> 00:47:01,640 Speaker 3: it's like from the same teams in NBA history. That's 929 00:47:01,680 --> 00:47:04,440 Speaker 3: been a little different the last couple of years. Toronto 930 00:47:04,480 --> 00:47:08,840 Speaker 3: snuck went in, the Buckscot went in, and no Quinci. 931 00:47:08,800 --> 00:47:11,960 Speaker 3: I think ratings have been going down. We tend to 932 00:47:12,000 --> 00:47:14,600 Speaker 3: watch those villains. So I'm not saying that they have 933 00:47:14,640 --> 00:47:17,640 Speaker 3: to create a salary cap to create super teams. It's 934 00:47:17,640 --> 00:47:19,839 Speaker 3: great that all these different fan bases get to have 935 00:47:20,239 --> 00:47:23,080 Speaker 3: the feeling of winning championships, But as far as what's 936 00:47:23,239 --> 00:47:27,239 Speaker 3: good for the league, I think super teams are good 937 00:47:27,239 --> 00:47:30,160 Speaker 3: because they're villains and that you need that as part 938 00:47:30,680 --> 00:47:32,960 Speaker 3: of your fan watching experience. 939 00:47:33,880 --> 00:47:37,000 Speaker 1: I like parody I just do. I like seeing different 940 00:47:37,040 --> 00:47:42,080 Speaker 1: teams and any kind of finals, NBA anything each year. 941 00:47:42,080 --> 00:47:45,720 Speaker 1: But you know, with the NBA and the free agency, 942 00:47:45,760 --> 00:47:48,080 Speaker 1: that usually probably isn't going to be the case. But 943 00:47:48,480 --> 00:47:52,600 Speaker 1: and I'm thinking NFL like I was, I'm ready to 944 00:47:53,239 --> 00:47:56,000 Speaker 1: change around now, all right. I guess the Eagles for them, 945 00:47:56,360 --> 00:48:00,560 Speaker 1: I'm ready to get rid of, like the Kansas City dynasty. 946 00:48:00,680 --> 00:48:03,280 Speaker 1: And I like to see some of the other teams, 947 00:48:03,840 --> 00:48:06,040 Speaker 1: uh get in. I would like them to be good 948 00:48:06,120 --> 00:48:09,760 Speaker 1: enough to be there. But I enjoy watching some different teams. 949 00:48:09,760 --> 00:48:11,960 Speaker 1: And you know, just growing up the way I did, 950 00:48:12,080 --> 00:48:15,000 Speaker 1: I root for those underdogs anyway to get there. I 951 00:48:15,080 --> 00:48:18,000 Speaker 1: root for those teams. I'm not rooting for the Dodgers 952 00:48:18,080 --> 00:48:20,839 Speaker 1: or the Yankees or I was always rooting for the Mets, 953 00:48:20,840 --> 00:48:23,600 Speaker 1: and they were, you know, literally the red at a 954 00:48:23,640 --> 00:48:25,960 Speaker 1: step child and the family up until eighty six. And 955 00:48:27,280 --> 00:48:29,879 Speaker 1: when I was actually there, I was a big fan 956 00:48:29,920 --> 00:48:31,640 Speaker 1: of the Mets back then because everyone in my house 957 00:48:31,760 --> 00:48:35,799 Speaker 1: was all Yankee fans. So I like to see other 958 00:48:35,840 --> 00:48:38,799 Speaker 1: teams get involved. And but it's a shame sometimes when 959 00:48:38,800 --> 00:48:41,640 Speaker 1: they have you know, only so much they could pay out. 960 00:48:42,239 --> 00:48:45,200 Speaker 1: You know, their their stars and compared to other teams 961 00:48:45,200 --> 00:48:47,759 Speaker 1: that you know, they always said these teams like the 962 00:48:47,840 --> 00:48:50,839 Speaker 1: Yankees and Steinbrenn are buying the World Series, and these 963 00:48:50,880 --> 00:48:53,640 Speaker 1: teams with big salaries, like I'll say now that the 964 00:48:53,680 --> 00:48:56,400 Speaker 1: Dodgers giant. I don't know who the biggest in baseball is, 965 00:48:56,640 --> 00:48:59,200 Speaker 1: but I wouldn't be surprised if it isn't. Isn't the Dodgers. 966 00:48:59,239 --> 00:49:03,160 Speaker 1: So I root for some of the lower paying teams 967 00:49:03,200 --> 00:49:06,360 Speaker 1: and the underdog, the Cinderella story types. 968 00:49:07,160 --> 00:49:11,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, no, I'm with you, Crack. I prefer parody. I 969 00:49:11,120 --> 00:49:13,319 Speaker 2: think it's much more interesting when you go into a 970 00:49:13,400 --> 00:49:16,960 Speaker 2: season not knowing who's gonna win the championship or at 971 00:49:17,040 --> 00:49:20,640 Speaker 2: least be in the championship. How many years did we 972 00:49:20,719 --> 00:49:22,359 Speaker 2: have it where it was like, hey, just wake me up. 973 00:49:22,360 --> 00:49:24,720 Speaker 2: When it's the Cavs and Warriors for a fourth straight 974 00:49:24,840 --> 00:49:27,560 Speaker 2: year in the finals, that's just not interesting to me. 975 00:49:28,080 --> 00:49:30,360 Speaker 2: And this is the first time ever in NBA history 976 00:49:30,440 --> 00:49:34,160 Speaker 2: we're gonna have seven different champions in a seven year span. 977 00:49:34,680 --> 00:49:37,560 Speaker 2: We got a new champion this year. I like that better. 978 00:49:37,600 --> 00:49:40,200 Speaker 2: But hey, listen, there's something to what Jeff's saying. There's 979 00:49:40,200 --> 00:49:43,360 Speaker 2: no way it can be perfect because what Jeff's saying 980 00:49:43,440 --> 00:49:47,040 Speaker 2: is correct. Dynasties equal hate watching, you know. 981 00:49:47,080 --> 00:49:47,120 Speaker 6: You. 982 00:49:47,280 --> 00:49:50,720 Speaker 2: Eventually the nineties Bowls were as popular as it got, 983 00:49:50,880 --> 00:49:54,000 Speaker 2: and they won so much there were plenty of fans 984 00:49:54,160 --> 00:49:57,719 Speaker 2: actively rooting against them, hoping that the dynasty would finally end. 985 00:49:58,200 --> 00:50:01,920 Speaker 2: That's what happens. And yeah, it is is interesting, U, 986 00:50:02,160 --> 00:50:04,360 Speaker 2: but there's a downside to it as well. And you 987 00:50:04,400 --> 00:50:08,280 Speaker 2: think about an NBA season that's so long, eighty two games, 988 00:50:08,800 --> 00:50:11,960 Speaker 2: you know, and you've got a dynasty. It's like, why 989 00:50:12,000 --> 00:50:14,359 Speaker 2: am I going out of my way to watch a 990 00:50:14,400 --> 00:50:18,680 Speaker 2: February game thinking that this lower tier team has a 991 00:50:18,760 --> 00:50:21,879 Speaker 2: shot at all to compete for a championship? 992 00:50:21,920 --> 00:50:22,080 Speaker 1: You know? 993 00:50:22,160 --> 00:50:27,359 Speaker 2: So I prefer parody more than dynasties, although there can 994 00:50:27,400 --> 00:50:30,040 Speaker 2: be a ratings impact when you do have a dynasty. 995 00:50:30,040 --> 00:50:33,120 Speaker 2: And I'll tell you this, Okay, See, they've got a 996 00:50:33,200 --> 00:50:36,719 Speaker 2: legitimate shot to build a dynasty right there. You've got 997 00:50:36,719 --> 00:50:41,520 Speaker 2: a superstar, an MVP and SGA. You've got young, good 998 00:50:41,760 --> 00:50:44,719 Speaker 2: talent that's gonna be there for a long time. You've 999 00:50:44,760 --> 00:50:47,600 Speaker 2: got draft picks galore. They've got twenty draft picks over 1000 00:50:47,600 --> 00:50:50,560 Speaker 2: the next five years. So Sam Presty, he could get 1001 00:50:50,560 --> 00:50:53,799 Speaker 2: aggressive and go all in and try to get another superstar. 1002 00:50:54,600 --> 00:50:57,919 Speaker 2: But just even as is, they've got enough where they're 1003 00:50:57,960 --> 00:51:00,960 Speaker 2: gonna threaten to be a dynasty over these next handful 1004 00:51:01,000 --> 00:51:03,600 Speaker 2: of years. I don't think that's outlandish at all. They're 1005 00:51:03,640 --> 00:51:07,200 Speaker 2: eighty and eighteen this season. They're twenty nine to one 1006 00:51:07,239 --> 00:51:10,080 Speaker 2: against the East. That's their record in the regular season. 1007 00:51:10,200 --> 00:51:13,359 Speaker 2: So you know, good luck Pacers with that. Those are 1008 00:51:13,719 --> 00:51:15,839 Speaker 2: major credentials that ok has there. 1009 00:51:16,160 --> 00:51:17,239 Speaker 1: Yeah. 1010 00:51:17,600 --> 00:51:22,880 Speaker 3: Yeah, look, I think OKAC is going to be able 1011 00:51:22,920 --> 00:51:25,160 Speaker 3: to keep this going for a long time. 1012 00:51:26,320 --> 00:51:26,680 Speaker 1: Yeah. 1013 00:51:26,800 --> 00:51:28,560 Speaker 2: I think they're gonna be a problem for a long 1014 00:51:28,640 --> 00:51:32,640 Speaker 2: long time because their nucleus isn't going anywhere. Yeah, And 1015 00:51:32,680 --> 00:51:34,600 Speaker 2: the scary thing is they could add to it in 1016 00:51:34,640 --> 00:51:38,200 Speaker 2: a major way if Presty gets really aggressive. He's got 1017 00:51:38,320 --> 00:51:41,759 Speaker 2: more than enough firepower to do it. So we'll see 1018 00:51:41,760 --> 00:51:43,760 Speaker 2: where they go from here. I guess that's the question. 1019 00:51:43,800 --> 00:51:47,319 Speaker 2: If they steam roll the Pacers in the finals, why 1020 00:51:47,360 --> 00:51:50,200 Speaker 2: would you go all in for like Gyiannis or something 1021 00:51:50,280 --> 00:51:55,000 Speaker 2: like that. You might just roll with what you got, I. 1022 00:51:54,960 --> 00:51:58,400 Speaker 3: Agree, Can okay, see if I guess to afford to 1023 00:51:58,440 --> 00:52:00,279 Speaker 3: pay all these players, I mean that's the thing, right, 1024 00:52:00,280 --> 00:52:02,960 Speaker 3: Like with this apron stuff. Can you can you you're 1025 00:52:03,000 --> 00:52:05,000 Speaker 3: still a small market team. When these guys are all due, 1026 00:52:05,040 --> 00:52:06,600 Speaker 3: can you pay all of them like that? I think 1027 00:52:06,840 --> 00:52:10,919 Speaker 3: the NBA penalizes your ability to do that now, which 1028 00:52:10,960 --> 00:52:13,480 Speaker 3: I think that's not what you want from a CBA. 1029 00:52:14,440 --> 00:52:17,200 Speaker 2: Yeah, I know there is a downside to it where 1030 00:52:17,840 --> 00:52:20,719 Speaker 2: you want to keep your like your homegrown guys or 1031 00:52:21,760 --> 00:52:23,719 Speaker 2: the closest thing to it. They have some of them, 1032 00:52:23,800 --> 00:52:26,960 Speaker 2: right with Jalen Williams and chet I know SGA was 1033 00:52:27,000 --> 00:52:29,200 Speaker 2: traded there and you could go on down the list, 1034 00:52:29,239 --> 00:52:32,680 Speaker 2: but some of their own guys, like yeah, it sucks 1035 00:52:32,680 --> 00:52:34,960 Speaker 2: when the teams have to get rid of them. So 1036 00:52:35,000 --> 00:52:38,319 Speaker 2: that's the downside of it. But we'll see what they 1037 00:52:38,360 --> 00:52:40,320 Speaker 2: do in the years to come. A lot of tough decisions, 1038 00:52:40,360 --> 00:52:42,000 Speaker 2: but that's a good problem to have, like, hey, how 1039 00:52:42,040 --> 00:52:45,640 Speaker 2: do we pay all of these fantastic players instead of hey, 1040 00:52:45,680 --> 00:52:47,920 Speaker 2: how are we going to get fantastic players? 1041 00:52:47,960 --> 00:52:48,160 Speaker 1: You know? 1042 00:52:48,280 --> 00:52:51,560 Speaker 2: So, okay, see has problems that other teams would love 1043 00:52:51,560 --> 00:52:51,879 Speaker 2: to happen. 1044 00:52:52,040 --> 00:52:53,760 Speaker 1: In sixty eight million, that's their payroll. 1045 00:52:54,280 --> 00:52:56,359 Speaker 2: Okay, wow, yeah, one. 1046 00:52:56,320 --> 00:52:58,279 Speaker 1: Hundred and sixty eight million, and you just look at 1047 00:52:58,320 --> 00:53:02,120 Speaker 1: their My god, all the guys in five figure you know, 1048 00:53:02,160 --> 00:53:08,000 Speaker 1: I say five figures, I'm sorry, eight figures, you know, 1049 00:53:08,320 --> 00:53:12,359 Speaker 1: starting with SGA forty forty one million, Hartin's in twenty eight, 1050 00:53:12,920 --> 00:53:19,440 Speaker 1: Dort eighteen, whole Room seven eighteen, it's called eighteen Caruso twenty. 1051 00:53:19,520 --> 00:53:22,920 Speaker 1: I mean it's amazing all these You almost say, how 1052 00:53:22,960 --> 00:53:24,759 Speaker 1: can is there that much money? But then again I 1053 00:53:24,800 --> 00:53:26,920 Speaker 1: always had it with football, How can you afford to 1054 00:53:26,920 --> 00:53:29,719 Speaker 1: pay quarterbacks fifty million dollars? I did there must be 1055 00:53:29,760 --> 00:53:35,040 Speaker 1: a lot of advertising dollars and a lot of sportsbook money, 1056 00:53:35,160 --> 00:53:39,360 Speaker 1: a lot of sportsbook advertising money on these in these stadiums. 1057 00:53:39,400 --> 00:53:42,160 Speaker 1: Just to look at these salaries, I would think my grandfather, 1058 00:53:42,200 --> 00:53:45,040 Speaker 1: I think I said it before. He was flipping out 1059 00:53:45,239 --> 00:53:48,120 Speaker 1: back in like the eighties, He's like, how can Steinbrunner 1060 00:53:48,160 --> 00:53:52,360 Speaker 1: give Dave Winfield twenty million for ten years? I mean, Grandpa, 1061 00:53:52,480 --> 00:53:53,719 Speaker 1: what would you be saying? Now? O? 1062 00:53:54,200 --> 00:53:59,000 Speaker 2: Wow, it's crazy too where I think, okay, see they 1063 00:53:59,080 --> 00:54:02,760 Speaker 2: show you, yeah, what can be done in the draft 1064 00:54:02,840 --> 00:54:06,520 Speaker 2: where I know SGA wasn't drafted by OKAC, but he 1065 00:54:06,600 --> 00:54:10,440 Speaker 2: got there. He's a former eleventh overall pick. You know, 1066 00:54:10,560 --> 00:54:14,120 Speaker 2: like you look at Cason Wallace is a higher pick 1067 00:54:14,400 --> 00:54:18,320 Speaker 2: than SGA is. Think about that Kayson Wallas tenth overall, 1068 00:54:18,400 --> 00:54:23,239 Speaker 2: SGA eleventh overall, both out of Kentucky, Lou Dort Alex Caruso. 1069 00:54:23,320 --> 00:54:27,840 Speaker 2: Those guys are undrafted. Guys' undrafted in the NBA. To 1070 00:54:27,920 --> 00:54:32,879 Speaker 2: be that successful is not common. Hartenstein's the second round guy, 1071 00:54:33,080 --> 00:54:36,160 Speaker 2: forty third overall. Like their highest draft pick is Chet 1072 00:54:36,280 --> 00:54:39,200 Speaker 2: who is second overall. Jyalen Williams out of Santa Clara. 1073 00:54:39,239 --> 00:54:42,000 Speaker 2: He was twelfth overall. Think about that. We just had 1074 00:54:42,040 --> 00:54:45,200 Speaker 2: the NBA Draft lottery, you know, Cooper Flagg, the number 1075 00:54:45,200 --> 00:54:48,560 Speaker 2: one overall pick, sweepstakes and all of that. If you're like, gosh, 1076 00:54:48,600 --> 00:54:51,480 Speaker 2: we got the twelfth pick, this sucks, It's like, well, 1077 00:54:51,840 --> 00:54:54,759 Speaker 2: Jalen Williams was a twelfth overall pick. I know they 1078 00:54:54,760 --> 00:54:58,600 Speaker 2: don't grow on trees, but SGA, Klay Thompson, eleventh overall picks, 1079 00:54:59,520 --> 00:55:04,000 Speaker 2: Yannis Kawhi, We're talking like fifteenth overall picks in that neighborhood. 1080 00:55:04,080 --> 00:55:09,759 Speaker 3: Yeah, so that does feel more like luck than anything else. 1081 00:55:09,880 --> 00:55:13,520 Speaker 3: I mean, you know, you if you hit on those, 1082 00:55:14,120 --> 00:55:16,080 Speaker 3: it's good for your scouting department. But I don't know 1083 00:55:16,120 --> 00:55:18,680 Speaker 3: if it's that skill to hit on the twelve. We 1084 00:55:18,719 --> 00:55:20,919 Speaker 3: see obviously most of the superstars come in the top 1085 00:55:20,960 --> 00:55:24,719 Speaker 3: six or seven. I don't know if if that's you 1086 00:55:25,080 --> 00:55:27,960 Speaker 3: surely can't you can do it. I'm not saying that 1087 00:55:28,000 --> 00:55:30,760 Speaker 3: it's like something that is easily attainable. 1088 00:55:30,280 --> 00:55:33,960 Speaker 2: Obviously, absolutely no, exactly, that's exactly what I'm saying, where 1089 00:55:34,360 --> 00:55:36,719 Speaker 2: it can be done for anyone who's like, oh we 1090 00:55:36,760 --> 00:55:38,560 Speaker 2: got a twelfth pick. This is gonna be a guy 1091 00:55:38,600 --> 00:55:42,160 Speaker 2: who maybe is a rotational player, and that's it. It's like, 1092 00:55:42,920 --> 00:55:45,839 Speaker 2: not necessarily, it can be way better than that. There 1093 00:55:45,880 --> 00:55:50,600 Speaker 2: are examples, all right, We've got Bill Krackenberger, professional sports handicapper. 1094 00:55:50,680 --> 00:55:54,080 Speaker 2: Jeff Schwartz, eight year NFL veteran, I'm Brian No. Use 1095 00:55:54,120 --> 00:55:56,920 Speaker 2: Code Countdown at bet MGM and receive up to fifteen 1096 00:55:57,040 --> 00:55:59,239 Speaker 2: hundred dollars back in bonus bets if you don't win 1097 00:55:59,280 --> 00:56:02,319 Speaker 2: your first bet.

Christian Cipolini, bet MGM Trading 1114 00:56:58,960 --> 00:57:03,240 Speaker 2: Manager joins us here year, good morning, Christian, so thunder 1115 00:57:03,320 --> 00:57:07,120 Speaker 2: Pacers in the NBA Finals. Let's pust out a scale here, 1116 00:57:07,200 --> 00:57:10,640 Speaker 2: scale from one to ten, ten being the best. What 1117 00:57:10,680 --> 00:57:14,479 Speaker 2: would you say? How desirable is this finals matchup from 1118 00:57:14,520 --> 00:57:16,440 Speaker 2: a bet MGM standpoint? 1119 00:57:18,280 --> 00:57:20,640 Speaker 8: Well, yeah, that's a good question because there's a couple 1120 00:57:20,680 --> 00:57:23,640 Speaker 8: of different factors. Is for one, you know, each game, 1121 00:57:23,720 --> 00:57:26,040 Speaker 8: game by game, which one is going to be? You know, 1122 00:57:26,160 --> 00:57:27,640 Speaker 8: is this final is going to be entertaining? Is it 1123 00:57:27,720 --> 00:57:30,840 Speaker 8: going to draw in money? I think that's probably a 1124 00:57:30,880 --> 00:57:33,120 Speaker 8: little bit less so if it was Thunder knicks or 1125 00:57:33,160 --> 00:57:38,480 Speaker 8: even Timberwolf snicks. But from a Betagms features perspective, the 1126 00:57:38,560 --> 00:57:40,960 Speaker 8: Thunder are an incredible outcome for us. They have been 1127 00:57:41,400 --> 00:57:43,920 Speaker 8: one of our best outcomes from the beginning of the season. 1128 00:57:44,560 --> 00:57:46,760 Speaker 8: What's helped that a lot is the fact that they 1129 00:57:46,760 --> 00:57:49,960 Speaker 8: have been a short favorite the entire year throughout and 1130 00:57:50,000 --> 00:57:53,240 Speaker 8: then at this point now minus six hundred still so 1131 00:57:54,320 --> 00:57:56,760 Speaker 8: they're by far our best outcome. The Pacers would be 1132 00:57:56,760 --> 00:58:00,479 Speaker 8: a losing outcome, but nothing crazy, you know, still below 1133 00:58:00,560 --> 00:58:04,400 Speaker 8: seven figures, but we would definitely prefer the Thunder. 1134 00:58:04,120 --> 00:58:04,840 Speaker 1: To win this. 1135 00:58:06,880 --> 00:58:08,600 Speaker 3: Yeah, are you gonna you're gonna take many tickets you 1136 00:58:08,640 --> 00:58:10,720 Speaker 3: think on Pacers to win the series? Or is that 1137 00:58:10,840 --> 00:58:12,680 Speaker 3: just people just gonna stay away and bet sort of 1138 00:58:13,320 --> 00:58:16,600 Speaker 3: series series outcome series price we're talking earlier, you know, 1139 00:58:16,680 --> 00:58:20,360 Speaker 3: to for this series to go six games is one price, 1140 00:58:21,000 --> 00:58:23,240 Speaker 3: but then it's a different price for the Thunder to 1141 00:58:23,240 --> 00:58:25,320 Speaker 3: win the series four to two or the Pacers win 1142 00:58:25,360 --> 00:58:26,120 Speaker 3: the series four to two. 1143 00:58:26,120 --> 00:58:28,320 Speaker 4: So do you think people are gonna play It's sort. 1144 00:58:28,120 --> 00:58:33,680 Speaker 8: Of like that, Yeah, most likely, especially because when you 1145 00:58:33,680 --> 00:58:37,320 Speaker 8: start seeing that price and betters will look and be like, okay, well, 1146 00:58:37,320 --> 00:58:39,800 Speaker 8: maybe there's not a very good chance so that the 1147 00:58:39,840 --> 00:58:41,840 Speaker 8: Pacers could win it. So they'll try and find different 1148 00:58:41,840 --> 00:58:44,200 Speaker 8: ways to the bett. I've already seen a ton of 1149 00:58:44,240 --> 00:58:47,320 Speaker 8: action on a sweep from the thunder side of things, 1150 00:58:48,000 --> 00:58:52,040 Speaker 8: so a little bit less Pacers action than definitely some 1151 00:58:52,120 --> 00:58:54,720 Speaker 8: more people being exotic on how they're gonna bet the thunder. 1152 00:58:56,120 --> 00:58:58,840 Speaker 1: Good morning, Christian. So we got the NFL season, believe it, 1153 00:58:58,880 --> 00:59:01,120 Speaker 1: and hard to belive that we're going to say this 1154 00:59:01,560 --> 00:59:05,200 Speaker 1: only ninety days away here for the regular season, literally 1155 00:59:05,240 --> 00:59:08,240 Speaker 1: two months eight weeks from the preseason, which of course 1156 00:59:08,240 --> 00:59:13,080 Speaker 1: we're happy with us three guys are total degenerates preseason football. 1157 00:59:13,520 --> 00:59:17,280 Speaker 1: Let me ask you, though, are you getting any action 1158 00:59:17,480 --> 00:59:19,960 Speaker 1: yet or is it a little too early for people 1159 00:59:20,000 --> 00:59:23,520 Speaker 1: to break out their wallets for NFL futures or is 1160 00:59:23,520 --> 00:59:26,080 Speaker 1: that even talk yet or not really if people just 1161 00:59:26,120 --> 00:59:27,320 Speaker 1: wait till last minute. 1162 00:59:28,600 --> 00:59:32,200 Speaker 8: Oh, from a futures perspective, super Bowl outright, those are 1163 00:59:32,240 --> 00:59:35,479 Speaker 8: certainly being that we already have a ton of action, 1164 00:59:35,680 --> 00:59:38,400 Speaker 8: and that happens throughout the summer. If we talk like 1165 00:59:38,560 --> 00:59:40,640 Speaker 8: game by game basis, you know we have all week 1166 00:59:40,680 --> 00:59:43,520 Speaker 8: one up. Those games are taking very little action. There's 1167 00:59:43,560 --> 00:59:45,920 Speaker 8: some there's some sharps that see a number that they know, 1168 00:59:46,000 --> 00:59:47,920 Speaker 8: they like, they know it'll go around the key number, 1169 00:59:48,160 --> 00:59:50,040 Speaker 8: and they're not worried about having their money tied up, 1170 00:59:50,080 --> 00:59:53,000 Speaker 8: but at least from a more of the public perspective, 1171 00:59:53,000 --> 00:59:55,160 Speaker 8: they don't like having it tied up on a singular game. 1172 00:59:55,240 --> 00:59:58,160 Speaker 1: But no, I was meaning yeah, yeah, yeah. 1173 00:59:57,960 --> 01:00:02,040 Speaker 8: But from that futures perspective, people are definitely betting on 1174 01:00:02,080 --> 01:00:03,880 Speaker 8: their teams to win it, and teams they like they 1175 01:00:04,120 --> 01:00:06,040 Speaker 8: definitely jump on this early, even though the price really 1176 01:00:06,120 --> 01:00:09,200 Speaker 8: isn't really going to change much. But as we talk 1177 01:00:09,240 --> 01:00:10,800 Speaker 8: about a lot of the balls king. So that's why 1178 01:00:10,800 --> 01:00:12,680 Speaker 8: I think stets yep got you. 1179 01:00:13,360 --> 01:00:17,480 Speaker 2: How about Christian, you look at both, you know, playoff series. 1180 01:00:17,520 --> 01:00:20,080 Speaker 2: Now that we have the Stanley Cup Final, NBA Finals 1181 01:00:20,080 --> 01:00:23,320 Speaker 2: matchups are all set. What's ideal for you guys at 1182 01:00:23,320 --> 01:00:25,640 Speaker 2: bet MGM. What do you need maybe like from a 1183 01:00:25,680 --> 01:00:28,760 Speaker 2: broad standpoint, but also if you get a little bit 1184 01:00:28,800 --> 01:00:32,160 Speaker 2: more in depth of like threading the needle, how long 1185 01:00:32,320 --> 01:00:35,280 Speaker 2: the series go, anything specific that you guys would like 1186 01:00:35,360 --> 01:00:35,760 Speaker 2: as well. 1187 01:00:37,560 --> 01:00:40,160 Speaker 8: Yeah, So, as I touched on the basketball one, right now, 1188 01:00:40,160 --> 01:00:41,800 Speaker 8: we're going to want the Thunder to win it in 1189 01:00:41,840 --> 01:00:44,200 Speaker 8: probably like six or seven. With the idea of for 1190 01:00:44,360 --> 01:00:47,360 Speaker 8: multiple reasons. For one, that'll get us more games. The 1191 01:00:47,400 --> 01:00:49,400 Speaker 8: more games we can get in any one of these series, 1192 01:00:49,440 --> 01:00:51,360 Speaker 8: the better because it's just more action on a game 1193 01:00:51,400 --> 01:00:53,680 Speaker 8: by game basis. So if a thunder could win it 1194 01:00:53,680 --> 01:00:55,720 Speaker 8: in seven, that would be you know, if I could 1195 01:00:56,680 --> 01:00:58,240 Speaker 8: make a wish, that would be what I would want 1196 01:00:58,280 --> 01:00:59,960 Speaker 8: because I get to the most games, and then that's 1197 01:01:00,080 --> 01:01:03,320 Speaker 8: under outcome, which is by far our best. And then 1198 01:01:03,360 --> 01:01:05,360 Speaker 8: on the hockey side of things, we have the rematch 1199 01:01:05,400 --> 01:01:09,240 Speaker 8: them last year Oiler's Panthers, and you know, I'm not 1200 01:01:09,240 --> 01:01:12,240 Speaker 8: sure if it's because of the fact that the Florida 1201 01:01:12,280 --> 01:01:15,120 Speaker 8: Panthers we're not live in that betting state. Three straight 1202 01:01:16,080 --> 01:01:19,560 Speaker 8: appearances here, we barely take any action on them. All 1203 01:01:19,600 --> 01:01:23,080 Speaker 8: three years, we've taken very little action. They've been one 1204 01:01:23,120 --> 01:01:25,880 Speaker 8: of our best outcomes from the beginning. So the book 1205 01:01:25,880 --> 01:01:28,680 Speaker 8: will certainly be rooting for the Panthers. Oilers on the 1206 01:01:28,680 --> 01:01:31,400 Speaker 8: flip side of things, not a good outcome for us, 1207 01:01:31,920 --> 01:01:34,080 Speaker 8: definitely rooting against them, even though they are the favorite now. 1208 01:01:34,640 --> 01:01:38,840 Speaker 8: But similar similar thing in that that boot, we want 1209 01:01:38,840 --> 01:01:40,760 Speaker 8: this to go seven games to the more games, the better, 1210 01:01:40,800 --> 01:01:44,000 Speaker 8: and especially hockey we can get. But we definitely will 1211 01:01:44,000 --> 01:01:45,000 Speaker 8: want the Panthers. 1212 01:01:45,480 --> 01:01:48,760 Speaker 3: Yeah, some of these serious prices are interesting here, Like 1213 01:01:48,960 --> 01:01:52,120 Speaker 3: points leader is McDavid obviously plus one twenty. I'm sure 1214 01:01:52,120 --> 01:01:53,480 Speaker 3: you're righting a bunch of tickets on night. He's got 1215 01:01:53,520 --> 01:01:56,080 Speaker 3: twenty six points so far in the post. Do you 1216 01:01:56,120 --> 01:01:59,360 Speaker 3: see a lot of people playing these sort of player 1217 01:01:59,560 --> 01:02:01,520 Speaker 3: series numbers? You know, you have him up an NBA 1218 01:02:01,560 --> 01:02:04,760 Speaker 3: would imagine pretty soon, but you do. Are they playing 1219 01:02:04,760 --> 01:02:07,320 Speaker 3: top goal scorer, top series point leader, things like that? 1220 01:02:09,440 --> 01:02:11,960 Speaker 8: Yeah, so it's funny you mentioned McDavid because his name 1221 01:02:12,040 --> 01:02:14,680 Speaker 8: is the one that just really stands out and takes bets. 1222 01:02:14,760 --> 01:02:17,400 Speaker 8: So points leader, you know, makes sense. He's he's the 1223 01:02:17,440 --> 01:02:18,360 Speaker 8: favorite on that. 1224 01:02:18,640 --> 01:02:19,160 Speaker 5: Side of things. 1225 01:02:19,160 --> 01:02:22,440 Speaker 8: But even series goal leader more drost suttles than the 1226 01:02:22,480 --> 01:02:25,120 Speaker 8: one over at least this full season, in a little 1227 01:02:25,120 --> 01:02:26,760 Speaker 8: bit to last year, he's been scoring a lot more 1228 01:02:26,760 --> 01:02:29,040 Speaker 8: goals and it's when David's been feeding him. But they 1229 01:02:29,080 --> 01:02:30,960 Speaker 8: see that named McDavid, he's still getting bet for a 1230 01:02:31,000 --> 01:02:34,320 Speaker 8: top goal scorer. And then there's funny of Florida players. 1231 01:02:34,320 --> 01:02:36,520 Speaker 8: But Florida's so mixed up and there's a lot of 1232 01:02:36,520 --> 01:02:38,280 Speaker 8: different one second hit it, which at least for me, 1233 01:02:38,320 --> 01:02:40,080 Speaker 8: makes us a little bit of an interesting market. But 1234 01:02:40,880 --> 01:02:44,080 Speaker 8: all those players to Chuck Bennett or hay Gee Barkoff 1235 01:02:44,080 --> 01:02:46,960 Speaker 8: all have at least some action on them. So it's 1236 01:02:46,960 --> 01:02:49,040 Speaker 8: a little bit more mixed if you're betting the Panthers, 1237 01:02:49,040 --> 01:02:50,600 Speaker 8: if you're betting the o others is people just see 1238 01:02:50,680 --> 01:02:51,480 Speaker 8: McDavid and that's the. 1239 01:02:52,840 --> 01:02:55,160 Speaker 1: Christian you know. I spoke to an old school book 1240 01:02:55,200 --> 01:02:59,600 Speaker 1: maker that's been in this fifty years and he can't 1241 01:02:59,720 --> 01:03:03,160 Speaker 1: actually said to me, if he had a choice, he 1242 01:03:03,200 --> 01:03:07,000 Speaker 1: wishes he can have the Colorado Rockies off the board. 1243 01:03:07,320 --> 01:03:09,680 Speaker 1: He doesn't even want to book. He doesn't even want 1244 01:03:09,720 --> 01:03:11,640 Speaker 1: to book the game. And now he's dead serious. He's like, 1245 01:03:11,680 --> 01:03:15,800 Speaker 1: I'm doing this fifty one years, Bill, I wish I couldn't. 1246 01:03:16,040 --> 01:03:18,480 Speaker 1: I wish I didn't have to even have the Rockies 1247 01:03:18,480 --> 01:03:20,640 Speaker 1: on the board. And this is before they just went 1248 01:03:20,720 --> 01:03:23,880 Speaker 1: one to nine again, still at nine wins. Here. Let 1249 01:03:23,880 --> 01:03:26,720 Speaker 1: me ask you, though I live by an old rule. 1250 01:03:26,760 --> 01:03:30,840 Speaker 1: I've been doing this thirty years myself, betting professionally. I 1251 01:03:31,000 --> 01:03:33,320 Speaker 1: tell him at Rock's name, of course, his name is 1252 01:03:33,400 --> 01:03:37,320 Speaker 1: Rocky Rock. I said, you know, this is why people 1253 01:03:37,360 --> 01:03:40,160 Speaker 1: are laying four to one on the Mets and the 1254 01:03:40,280 --> 01:03:43,440 Speaker 1: other side of its plus three ten. In the end, 1255 01:03:43,480 --> 01:03:46,360 Speaker 1: you have to win, and he's just saying, no, I 1256 01:03:46,480 --> 01:03:50,040 Speaker 1: don't have to win. I'm buried. I am buried. Do 1257 01:03:50,120 --> 01:03:52,000 Speaker 1: you guys feel the same way? A BETTAMGM. Are you 1258 01:03:52,040 --> 01:03:55,720 Speaker 1: guys getting buried on anti you know Rocky bets this 1259 01:03:55,840 --> 01:03:57,920 Speaker 1: season and what you're feeling going forward? 1260 01:03:59,000 --> 01:03:59,200 Speaker 2: Yeah? 1261 01:03:59,320 --> 01:04:01,800 Speaker 8: Let me look, I'll try to show you what I'm 1262 01:04:01,840 --> 01:04:04,400 Speaker 8: looking at right now, looking at this Mets Rockies game 1263 01:04:04,400 --> 01:04:07,520 Speaker 8: for today. From one, the Rockies are plus three hundred, 1264 01:04:07,560 --> 01:04:10,200 Speaker 8: Mets arous four hundred, which is just so absurd in 1265 01:04:10,200 --> 01:04:13,360 Speaker 8: a baseball game, especially in June. And then just quickly 1266 01:04:13,440 --> 01:04:15,720 Speaker 8: what you mentioned on two, they don't have ten wins 1267 01:04:15,720 --> 01:04:17,960 Speaker 8: and we're into June, which is another crazy thing. But 1268 01:04:18,280 --> 01:04:20,960 Speaker 8: when I'm looking at this from a moneyline perspective and 1269 01:04:21,000 --> 01:04:24,960 Speaker 8: a run line perspective, ninety nine point five percent of 1270 01:04:24,960 --> 01:04:26,760 Speaker 8: the bets that we have taken or on the Mets, 1271 01:04:26,960 --> 01:04:29,240 Speaker 8: so no one is touching them on the money line 1272 01:04:29,280 --> 01:04:32,720 Speaker 8: and nobody is touching them on the run line, looks 1273 01:04:32,720 --> 01:04:37,040 Speaker 8: like one singular bet on Rodney one point five. Like 1274 01:04:37,520 --> 01:04:39,720 Speaker 8: I'm not exaggerate, it looks to be one or two 1275 01:04:39,840 --> 01:04:43,600 Speaker 8: bets here. So Yeah, from that same perspective, there's not 1276 01:04:43,720 --> 01:04:46,240 Speaker 8: much we can do. We're trying, and nobody wants to 1277 01:04:46,280 --> 01:04:47,240 Speaker 8: bet this team. 1278 01:04:47,720 --> 01:04:48,160 Speaker 1: Amazing. 1279 01:04:48,160 --> 01:04:52,000 Speaker 2: Wow, that's amazing. Well, hey, Christian, I always appreciate your time. Man, 1280 01:04:52,040 --> 01:04:54,120 Speaker 2: hope you have a fantastic day. We'll catch you soon, 1281 01:04:54,960 --> 01:04:55,400 Speaker 2: of course. 1282 01:04:55,680 --> 01:04:57,320 Speaker 1: You guys, actually you guys. 1283 01:04:57,200 --> 01:04:59,800 Speaker 2: All right, see you Christian there he is, Christian Cipolini. 1284 01:05:00,040 --> 01:05:04,120 Speaker 2: Bet MGM trading manager does an outstanding job. Wow, one bet, 1285 01:05:04,240 --> 01:05:07,120 Speaker 2: like I see one maybe two rocket. 1286 01:05:06,960 --> 01:05:11,320 Speaker 1: Across the entire bet MGM network. Think about that. That's impossible. 1287 01:05:11,640 --> 01:05:15,720 Speaker 1: Cannot happen, it can one bet? Yeah? Do you know 1288 01:05:15,760 --> 01:05:19,560 Speaker 1: how many states bet MGM is legal? Oh my god? 1289 01:05:19,960 --> 01:05:24,840 Speaker 3: They they they're they're that bad. I don't know they 1290 01:05:24,880 --> 01:05:29,400 Speaker 3: they just they you Okay, they get a lot of runs. 1291 01:05:29,920 --> 01:05:32,440 Speaker 3: Sure it happens, but they don't score runs either. Crack 1292 01:05:33,680 --> 01:05:37,360 Speaker 3: like that's they don't do anything good. Their bullpen actually 1293 01:05:37,440 --> 01:05:40,560 Speaker 3: is fine, but they have one hundred and eighty one 1294 01:05:40,840 --> 01:05:43,720 Speaker 3: run scored this year. That would be last in baseball. 1295 01:05:44,200 --> 01:05:46,320 Speaker 3: They've about three hundred and sixty four runs with guess 1296 01:05:46,320 --> 01:05:50,120 Speaker 3: what will be last in baseball. So they don't do anything. Well, 1297 01:05:50,200 --> 01:05:52,920 Speaker 3: now I'm not laying four hundred on anything but that 1298 01:05:53,040 --> 01:05:57,240 Speaker 3: ye team total over, I keep I keep hitting every day. Yeah, 1299 01:05:57,280 --> 01:06:01,200 Speaker 3: so I took under, I took under, not an under 1300 01:06:01,320 --> 01:06:04,440 Speaker 3: nine and a half wins for the month of June. Okay, here, 1301 01:06:04,560 --> 01:06:06,920 Speaker 3: here's what their schedule is. You tell me if they're 1302 01:06:06,920 --> 01:06:09,320 Speaker 3: getting They've won nine games so far this season. Okay, 1303 01:06:09,840 --> 01:06:11,800 Speaker 3: so they're not being the Mets. Say, in my opinion, 1304 01:06:12,200 --> 01:06:14,600 Speaker 3: they got three with the Marlins, but they're they're They're 1305 01:06:14,600 --> 01:06:18,640 Speaker 3: in Florida for three, they host the Mets, host the Giants, 1306 01:06:19,080 --> 01:06:23,040 Speaker 3: they're at Atlanta. That's nine games. If they win two 1307 01:06:23,120 --> 01:06:26,080 Speaker 3: of those, I don't know, probably maybe two, let's say, yeah, 1308 01:06:26,360 --> 01:06:28,200 Speaker 3: all right, then they go in there and then they 1309 01:06:28,240 --> 01:06:31,080 Speaker 3: go to Atlanta, go to go to go to Washington 1310 01:06:31,520 --> 01:06:33,400 Speaker 3: play Diamonbacks, Dodgers, and Brewers. 1311 01:06:36,120 --> 01:06:37,880 Speaker 1: I'm actually I actually pulled the schedule up on one 1312 01:06:37,920 --> 01:06:38,600 Speaker 1: to see they. 1313 01:06:38,480 --> 01:06:40,880 Speaker 4: Had they winned ten of ten of those games. 1314 01:06:42,320 --> 01:06:44,640 Speaker 2: It's tough to see. It'd be funny if you, if you, 1315 01:06:44,760 --> 01:06:48,960 Speaker 2: just if you, if their schedule was nothing but bottom feeders, 1316 01:06:49,120 --> 01:06:50,040 Speaker 2: I'd still be like. 1317 01:06:50,680 --> 01:06:52,920 Speaker 1: I have the schedule, there is some bottom feeders. But 1318 01:06:53,080 --> 01:06:56,240 Speaker 1: I want to tell you something. I still see chef's 1319 01:06:56,320 --> 01:06:59,280 Speaker 1: point here. Yes, it's so bad. 1320 01:07:00,120 --> 01:07:03,120 Speaker 2: Oh if you're like, here you go. They've got the Orioles, 1321 01:07:03,240 --> 01:07:05,960 Speaker 2: they've got the white sox that I'd still be like. 1322 01:07:06,040 --> 01:07:10,080 Speaker 3: So they have twenty games this month. It looks like 1323 01:07:10,960 --> 01:07:13,800 Speaker 3: maphis right right, we have we had six that we got, 1324 01:07:13,840 --> 01:07:17,080 Speaker 3: we got we got twelve, we got nineteen. I'm sorry, 1325 01:07:17,120 --> 01:07:19,960 Speaker 3: they have yeah, twenty five games this month. Okay, so 1326 01:07:20,080 --> 01:07:22,240 Speaker 3: I get beat at what ten and fifteen? 1327 01:07:22,640 --> 01:07:23,920 Speaker 1: Yeah? 1328 01:07:24,480 --> 01:07:26,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, okay, yeah. 1329 01:07:25,920 --> 01:07:28,720 Speaker 3: I mean sure, if I get beat, I get beat, 1330 01:07:28,840 --> 01:07:32,120 Speaker 3: hand up. I'll pick the hell and also too. It's funny, 1331 01:07:32,160 --> 01:07:34,280 Speaker 3: is like, if they get to nine wins, let's say 1332 01:07:34,640 --> 01:07:36,920 Speaker 3: I can just bet the Rockies plus three hundred the 1333 01:07:36,960 --> 01:07:39,920 Speaker 3: rest of the month to make the money back. 1334 01:07:39,960 --> 01:07:40,880 Speaker 4: I guess what is. 1335 01:07:40,840 --> 01:07:44,560 Speaker 1: The word of the actual bet nine wins? Like, what 1336 01:07:44,680 --> 01:07:45,080 Speaker 1: is it they have? 1337 01:07:45,160 --> 01:07:46,800 Speaker 3: I'll tell you right now. I haven't open right now. 1338 01:07:48,120 --> 01:07:50,840 Speaker 4: So it is just sounds. 1339 01:07:51,080 --> 01:07:52,280 Speaker 1: I say, it sounds to. 1340 01:07:52,520 --> 01:07:54,080 Speaker 4: Under nine and a half win. 1341 01:07:54,200 --> 01:07:57,760 Speaker 3: It's it's June specials and it's not offered by, you know, 1342 01:07:58,440 --> 01:08:02,360 Speaker 3: by someone else. June Special under nine and a half 1343 01:08:02,440 --> 01:08:06,640 Speaker 3: wins minus one twenty Colorado Rockies regularly wins in June 1344 01:08:06,680 --> 01:08:09,640 Speaker 3: of twenty twenty five market settle based on any games 1345 01:08:09,640 --> 01:08:11,360 Speaker 3: made official in the listed calendar months. 1346 01:08:11,640 --> 01:08:16,320 Speaker 1: Okay, it just there's got to be some catch. 1347 01:08:17,280 --> 01:08:18,640 Speaker 3: Well, I think I think I think the catch is 1348 01:08:18,680 --> 01:08:20,760 Speaker 3: that like it returns to meat. Like for example, again, 1349 01:08:20,800 --> 01:08:22,679 Speaker 3: I told you guys, I bet against the Rockies. Team 1350 01:08:22,760 --> 01:08:25,080 Speaker 3: told every day the opponent, and it lost four games 1351 01:08:25,120 --> 01:08:27,439 Speaker 3: in a row before yesterday. I mean like eventually and 1352 01:08:27,479 --> 01:08:29,519 Speaker 3: they're playing they're in They're playing the Cups, who have 1353 01:08:29,640 --> 01:08:32,360 Speaker 3: the number one run scoring team in baseball, and the 1354 01:08:32,400 --> 01:08:35,040 Speaker 3: Cups scored nine runs over three games, and the Rockies did 1355 01:08:35,040 --> 01:08:37,439 Speaker 3: not win one of those games, which is again like 1356 01:08:37,600 --> 01:08:41,559 Speaker 3: just incredibly just it's it's crazy, man. They just they're 1357 01:08:41,560 --> 01:08:43,599 Speaker 3: not winning any of these games. So they're not scoring either. Again, 1358 01:08:43,760 --> 01:08:46,160 Speaker 3: they're just doing all the things that it takes to 1359 01:08:46,200 --> 01:08:49,960 Speaker 3: lose a lot of these games. So I yeah, I mean, look, 1360 01:08:50,120 --> 01:08:52,920 Speaker 3: you can't lay four hundred obviously on these wagers, but 1361 01:08:53,400 --> 01:08:55,639 Speaker 3: I mean you're getting plus two and a half at 1362 01:08:55,680 --> 01:08:56,559 Speaker 3: minus won ten. 1363 01:08:57,960 --> 01:08:58,679 Speaker 2: That's crazy. 1364 01:08:58,760 --> 01:08:58,920 Speaker 1: Yeah. 1365 01:08:58,960 --> 01:09:01,160 Speaker 2: I will tell you one thing that you can feel 1366 01:09:01,200 --> 01:09:04,559 Speaker 2: comfortable laying four hundred on.

By the way, a 1408 01:11:27,080 --> 01:11:30,679 Speaker 2: couple of things here, I loo is mentioning Pascal Siakam 1409 01:11:30,720 --> 01:11:36,240 Speaker 2: won Eastern Conference Finals MVP. Five votes for Siakam, four 1410 01:11:36,360 --> 01:11:40,439 Speaker 2: votes for Halliburton. Very close, but it went Siakam's way. 1411 01:11:40,840 --> 01:11:42,880 Speaker 2: And by the way, the payout for the parlay platter, 1412 01:11:43,040 --> 01:11:46,679 Speaker 2: so the three legs crack. You've got under five runs 1413 01:11:47,320 --> 01:11:52,400 Speaker 2: in the first five innings of this White Sox Orioles game. Jeff, 1414 01:11:52,439 --> 01:11:55,439 Speaker 2: You've got the Mets scoring their team total over four 1415 01:11:55,479 --> 01:11:59,240 Speaker 2: and a half runs today. I've got under in the 1416 01:11:59,280 --> 01:12:02,280 Speaker 2: Cardinals Rangers game. The gramo on the mound. He's been 1417 01:12:02,320 --> 01:12:07,599 Speaker 2: a beast, so that will pay out plus four forty two. Well, yeah, 1418 01:12:07,960 --> 01:12:09,920 Speaker 2: not bad, a little more than four to one, not 1419 01:12:10,000 --> 01:12:12,920 Speaker 2: bad at all. By the way, how about the Dodgers 1420 01:12:13,000 --> 01:12:15,840 Speaker 2: just smacking around the Yankees? 1421 01:12:15,880 --> 01:12:19,880 Speaker 3: Holy cow, they both had position players pitching last night. 1422 01:12:20,840 --> 01:12:23,320 Speaker 2: It was I love that. I always love that. 1423 01:12:23,479 --> 01:12:24,160 Speaker 1: Yeah, and I was. 1424 01:12:24,200 --> 01:12:26,799 Speaker 3: I was on the radio last night and the total 1425 01:12:26,880 --> 01:12:30,080 Speaker 3: was nine and a half and you saw it. 1426 01:12:30,160 --> 01:12:30,320 Speaker 1: You know. 1427 01:12:30,360 --> 01:12:32,320 Speaker 3: The Dodgers scored four in the first and six in 1428 01:12:32,360 --> 01:12:34,560 Speaker 3: the second, so it was over quickly. But then we 1429 01:12:34,800 --> 01:12:37,880 Speaker 3: were looking at the number as it kept going. It 1430 01:12:37,960 --> 01:12:40,240 Speaker 3: was fourteen to one, and it was eighteen and a 1431 01:12:40,320 --> 01:12:43,280 Speaker 3: half at one point, and then obviously got over as 1432 01:12:43,280 --> 01:12:45,080 Speaker 3: they hit a three run home run. I think Monthy 1433 01:12:45,160 --> 01:12:48,400 Speaker 3: did off a position player. It got me thinking, do 1434 01:12:48,439 --> 01:12:53,520 Speaker 3: you remember the White Sox had. His last name was Mercedes. 1435 01:12:53,560 --> 01:12:58,080 Speaker 3: He was a catcher, and it just a couple years 1436 01:12:58,080 --> 01:13:00,160 Speaker 3: ago when LaRussa was coaching and he hit a re 1437 01:13:00,400 --> 01:13:03,679 Speaker 3: oh pitch against a position player for a home run. 1438 01:13:04,280 --> 01:13:05,920 Speaker 3: And at that point in his career he was young. 1439 01:13:05,960 --> 01:13:07,559 Speaker 3: He was bagging like three hundred eight. He was hit 1440 01:13:07,720 --> 01:13:10,920 Speaker 3: for power, and Larusa like benched him to them down 1441 01:13:10,920 --> 01:13:15,599 Speaker 3: to the minors, and he never came back from it ever, Johann, 1442 01:13:15,760 --> 01:13:17,479 Speaker 3: it would have been like he cans. I remember watching 1443 01:13:17,520 --> 01:13:19,880 Speaker 3: him play here. The minor league team in Charlotte is 1444 01:13:19,880 --> 01:13:22,240 Speaker 3: a White Sox affiliate, Triple A phil He came down 1445 01:13:22,280 --> 01:13:23,360 Speaker 3: here to play. 1446 01:13:23,600 --> 01:13:25,120 Speaker 4: His career never was the same. 1447 01:13:24,880 --> 01:13:28,680 Speaker 3: Because Larusa benched him after hitting a three to zero 1448 01:13:28,760 --> 01:13:33,040 Speaker 3: home run against a position player.

But yeah, how about real quick crack? 1466 01:14:17,920 --> 01:14:21,719 Speaker 2: What do you think about Otani bullpen sessions, rehabbing the elbow? 1467 01:14:22,120 --> 01:14:24,599 Speaker 2: You like the Dodgers' decision to pitch him this year? 1468 01:14:24,600 --> 01:14:25,920 Speaker 1: What do you think I go back and forth with 1469 01:14:25,960 --> 01:14:28,000 Speaker 1: a tainy pitching again? Is it worth the risk? Can 1470 01:14:28,000 --> 01:14:30,240 Speaker 1: he be dominant on the mound like he was for 1471 01:14:30,280 --> 01:14:31,800 Speaker 1: the Angels? And is it worth the risk that he 1472 01:14:31,840 --> 01:14:33,960 Speaker 1: can heard himself again and not be able to play 1473 01:14:34,000 --> 01:14:37,240 Speaker 1: at all? So you know, I go I guess said, 1474 01:14:37,280 --> 01:14:39,559 Speaker 1: I go back and forth. Maybe the answers to have 1475 01:14:39,640 --> 01:14:42,519 Speaker 1: him as a starter that throws eighty ninety pitchers a 1476 01:14:42,520 --> 01:14:44,280 Speaker 1: game and maybe bring him out of the bullpen to 1477 01:14:44,320 --> 01:14:46,519 Speaker 1: pitching inning here and there when they need to. Middle 1478 01:14:46,560 --> 01:14:49,200 Speaker 1: be interesting to see what the Dodgers do with him 1479 01:14:49,200 --> 01:14:52,080 Speaker 1: once he gets gets the okay to pitching games again. 1480 01:14:52,640 --> 01:14:56,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, it hasn't pitched since August of twenty three. Yep, 1481 01:14:56,080 --> 01:14:59,200 Speaker 2: But trying to rehab. I think how awesome is show? Hey, right, 1482 01:14:59,240 --> 01:15:03,760 Speaker 2: he's still hitting while he's rehabbing his pitching elbow. I 1483 01:15:03,800 --> 01:15:06,360 Speaker 2: think about that. He's among the league leaders in home 1484 01:15:06,439 --> 01:15:10,280 Speaker 2: runs while he's rehabbing. That's insanity right there.

I went to 1510 01:16:21,960 --> 01:16:27,240 Speaker 1: the MGM and went to the series total games. Let's 1511 01:16:27,280 --> 01:16:30,160 Speaker 1: take a little flyer and nothing crazy over five and 1512 01:16:30,200 --> 01:16:34,479 Speaker 1: a half games plus so five series total games over 1513 01:16:34,520 --> 01:16:37,040 Speaker 1: five and a half. Thinking there's gonna be uh, I 1514 01:16:37,080 --> 01:16:39,519 Speaker 1: think we're gonna have a little back and forth here 1515 01:16:40,000 --> 01:16:43,040 Speaker 1: face pages are gonna get a game or two, hopefully 1516 01:16:43,080 --> 01:16:45,519 Speaker 1: two here over five and a half plus so five 1517 01:16:46,200 --> 01:16:48,040 Speaker 1: all right plus money on that? 1518 01:16:48,560 --> 01:16:56,439 Speaker 3: Ye like it? I will go WNBA I got two 1519 01:16:56,479 --> 01:17:00,840 Speaker 3: for you here, Mariana Stewart over seventeen and a half 1520 01:17:00,840 --> 01:17:04,040 Speaker 3: points against the Sun. She did not play well last game. 1521 01:17:04,080 --> 01:17:07,559 Speaker 3: She shot three for ten. The question is the minutes 1522 01:17:07,600 --> 01:17:11,519 Speaker 3: today we'll see it is they're doing the Commissioner's Cup thing. 1523 01:17:11,640 --> 01:17:15,360 Speaker 3: It sounds it looks like so like these these games matter. 1524 01:17:15,439 --> 01:17:17,639 Speaker 3: They're eighteen and a half point favorites against the Sun today. 1525 01:17:18,240 --> 01:17:19,800 Speaker 3: I just like her to play better. Like she didn't 1526 01:17:19,800 --> 01:17:21,679 Speaker 3: play well last game. It was a back to back 1527 01:17:22,080 --> 01:17:24,400 Speaker 3: for the Liberty. It just didn't have the legs a 1528 01:17:24,400 --> 01:17:26,839 Speaker 3: little older. And then I took the feast of Collier 1529 01:17:26,880 --> 01:17:28,800 Speaker 3: over twenty two and a half points. Same thing, like 1530 01:17:29,000 --> 01:17:31,080 Speaker 3: I think she had sixteen last game she did she 1531 01:17:31,160 --> 01:17:33,880 Speaker 3: had she had thirty four, twenty three, twenty eight, thirty 1532 01:17:33,880 --> 01:17:36,280 Speaker 3: three and sixteen. So I'm gonna bet on Hire bounce 1533 01:17:36,400 --> 01:17:39,120 Speaker 3: back against the Valkyrie tonight, who are not very good. 1534 01:17:40,040 --> 01:17:41,839 Speaker 3: I'll have her over twenty two and a half points. 1535 01:17:42,400 --> 01:17:45,280 Speaker 2: By the way, I want to go back to last 1536 01:17:45,400 --> 01:17:47,719 Speaker 2: year because it's something to keep in mind for props 1537 01:17:48,560 --> 01:17:51,360 Speaker 2: totals and all that. Is this a little bit like 1538 01:17:51,520 --> 01:17:55,000 Speaker 2: Olympic basketball pool play? Well, I believe it is where 1539 01:17:55,000 --> 01:17:57,800 Speaker 2: the Commissioner's Cup, kind of like the NBA Cup. Your 1540 01:17:57,840 --> 01:18:00,840 Speaker 2: point totals matter in these games, I believe, right, So 1541 01:18:01,200 --> 01:18:03,960 Speaker 2: I think so saw it last year. They're just bombing away. 1542 01:18:04,000 --> 01:18:07,000 Speaker 2: They might be up by seventeen points. They're just bombing 1543 01:18:07,000 --> 01:18:09,599 Speaker 2: away down the stretch trying to rack up those points. 1544 01:18:09,600 --> 01:18:12,360 Speaker 2: So that's something to keep in mind for sure in 1545 01:18:12,400 --> 01:18:15,920 Speaker 2: these games. Yeah, this might be a little bit risky 1546 01:18:15,920 --> 01:18:19,080 Speaker 2: with that in mind. But Jeff, I'm looking at the 1547 01:18:19,120 --> 01:18:23,160 Speaker 2: New York Liberty Here. Our girl Sabrina Yanescu was fantastic 1548 01:18:23,240 --> 01:18:27,519 Speaker 2: the last time out, twenty eight points against the Mystics. 1549 01:18:27,560 --> 01:18:29,880 Speaker 2: Today we're looking at eighteen and a half. Seems to 1550 01:18:29,960 --> 01:18:32,400 Speaker 2: be eighteen. You's got to nineteen points. You didn't even 1551 01:18:32,439 --> 01:18:36,200 Speaker 2: have to break twenty for the over. I'm going under here, Zigzac, 1552 01:18:36,360 --> 01:18:40,400 Speaker 2: But Breanna Stewart plays better. My girl, John Quell Jones 1553 01:18:40,439 --> 01:18:45,240 Speaker 2: does her thing. Sabrina probably not like the same workload. 1554 01:18:45,280 --> 01:18:47,519 Speaker 2: The amount of minutes, I would imagine they're gonna be 1555 01:18:47,640 --> 01:18:51,680 Speaker 2: crushing the sun. So give me Sabrina under eighteen and 1556 01:18:51,720 --> 01:18:52,680 Speaker 2: a half points, I'll go. 1557 01:18:52,800 --> 01:18:54,640 Speaker 3: My guess was you were going Jones under eleven and 1558 01:18:54,640 --> 01:18:55,640 Speaker 3: a half rebounds. 1559 01:18:56,040 --> 01:18:57,200 Speaker 2: I love John Quinn. 1560 01:18:57,040 --> 01:18:59,960 Speaker 3: Because she's been under that three times in five game 1561 01:19:00,120 --> 01:19:04,360 Speaker 3: this season. She just had I just made and I 1562 01:19:04,400 --> 01:19:06,360 Speaker 3: don't think she's gonna have a lot of minutes tonight 1563 01:19:06,439 --> 01:19:08,920 Speaker 3: because I think they're gonna beat the sun pretty easily. 1564 01:19:09,800 --> 01:19:11,839 Speaker 3: She guards. You know, Charles will be who will be outside. 1565 01:19:11,880 --> 01:19:13,880 Speaker 3: She teammate kind of plays all over. She won't be 1566 01:19:14,000 --> 01:19:15,680 Speaker 3: directly in the paint. I think this. 1567 01:19:15,880 --> 01:19:17,040 Speaker 4: I thought you were gonna Jones. 1568 01:19:17,160 --> 01:19:20,160 Speaker 3: That was my guest under Jones rebounds interesting. 1569 01:19:20,280 --> 01:19:23,639 Speaker 2: Yeah, I like your uh, your thought on that. Anything 1570 01:19:23,640 --> 01:19:25,080 Speaker 2: else you want to throw out there, I got another 1571 01:19:25,560 --> 01:19:28,200 Speaker 2: w NBA anything for you, cracker. 1572 01:19:28,080 --> 01:19:29,800 Speaker 1: And I was saving something for the end of the show, 1573 01:19:29,840 --> 01:19:32,640 Speaker 1: but you're right, they they actually made move here.

So she only made it one night 1642 01:22:41,720 --> 01:22:43,879 Speaker 3: on Friday night. But you had a great time. But Saturday, 1643 01:22:44,000 --> 01:22:46,040 Speaker 3: just the helicopters there was too windy to go out, 1644 01:22:46,080 --> 01:22:47,920 Speaker 3: so no one could go out if you were if 1645 01:22:47,960 --> 01:22:49,880 Speaker 3: you went out there in a helicopter. 1646 01:22:49,439 --> 01:22:52,160 Speaker 1: Because get us all the candles on the cake, too 1647 01:22:52,160 --> 01:22:53,040 Speaker 1: many candles on the cake. 1648 01:22:53,680 --> 01:22:56,400 Speaker 4: I mean, either you take like a two hour drive 1649 01:22:57,160 --> 01:23:00,240 Speaker 4: to you know, to you know too to. 1650 01:23:01,080 --> 01:23:05,519 Speaker 1: The two hours traffic crazy. 1651 01:23:05,040 --> 01:23:07,559 Speaker 3: From from the strip to to the to the race 1652 01:23:07,640 --> 01:23:10,200 Speaker 3: track crazy, or you take the helicopter.

I think it's cheaper 1658 01:23:26,120 --> 01:23:27,600 Speaker 2: to go to the Masters than it is E. 1659 01:23:27,720 --> 01:23:27,960 Speaker 1: D C. 1660 01:23:28,200 --> 01:23:32,479 Speaker 2: You know, it's crazy.

You she got the night away 1671 01:23:59,400 --> 01:24:02,400 Speaker 1: you can play your upple craps by yourself or just 1672 01:24:02,439 --> 01:24:03,040 Speaker 1: go to sleep. 1673 01:24:03,080 --> 01:24:06,360 Speaker 2: That's what I woul just they just hung out. You know, 1674 01:24:06,400 --> 01:24:10,599 Speaker 2: I've watched sports hung out. There was nothing major going 1675 01:24:10,640 --> 01:24:11,360 Speaker 2: on at that time. 1676 01:24:13,120 --> 01:24:13,519 Speaker 1: That's right. 1677 01:24:14,080 --> 01:24:16,680 Speaker 2: That's probably just firing away on those By the way, 1678 01:24:16,680 --> 01:24:18,799 Speaker 2: we got a tweet here, I like this from Daniel. 1679 01:24:19,520 --> 01:24:22,920 Speaker 2: He tweets it and says about countdown, y'all should have 1680 01:24:22,960 --> 01:24:26,519 Speaker 2: a segment where you all start with like one hundred dollars, 1681 01:24:26,600 --> 01:24:29,799 Speaker 2: and we follow how much you guys are up and down. 1682 01:24:30,280 --> 01:24:32,320 Speaker 2: You guys throw out so many picks that it's nearly 1683 01:24:32,320 --> 01:24:35,160 Speaker 2: impossible to keep up with who's hot and cold, et cetera. 1684 01:24:35,600 --> 01:24:41,160 Speaker 2: Could be fun. Just go like, yeah, saw double saw 1685 01:24:41,400 --> 01:24:44,840 Speaker 2: certain picks. Be like crack, he started with one hundred, 1686 01:24:44,840 --> 01:24:46,599 Speaker 2: He's up three thousand dollars. 1687 01:24:46,800 --> 01:24:46,960 Speaker 1: You know. 1688 01:24:47,080 --> 01:24:49,879 Speaker 2: Meanwhile, I went all in and lost my first wager. 1689 01:24:50,160 --> 01:24:51,519 Speaker 2: I don't know, it would be something ridiculous. 1690 01:24:51,680 --> 01:24:54,080 Speaker 3: I'll put one hundred on the Mets minus four hundred today. 1691 01:24:54,240 --> 01:25:09,160 Speaker 3: Just make forty bucks quickly, Crack. No heart attack from crack. Yeah, 1692 01:25:09,400 --> 01:25:09,720 Speaker 3: all right. 1693 01:25:09,800 --> 01:25:13,439 Speaker 2: So there's a there's an NFL stat that is wild 1694 01:25:13,520 --> 01:25:16,559 Speaker 2: blows my mind. And you guys will love this because 1695 01:25:16,640 --> 01:25:18,680 Speaker 2: you can attach it to so many things in the 1696 01:25:18,720 --> 01:25:20,840 Speaker 2: betting market. So I'll give you the stat and we'll 1697 01:25:20,840 --> 01:25:23,920 Speaker 2: attach it to stuff. So each of the past ten 1698 01:25:24,040 --> 01:25:28,280 Speaker 2: seasons has included at least one team that drafts in 1699 01:25:28,320 --> 01:25:31,120 Speaker 2: the top eight and then goes on to make the 1700 01:25:31,120 --> 01:25:34,479 Speaker 2: playoffs the same year. So think about that. So if 1701 01:25:34,479 --> 01:25:36,920 Speaker 2: you look at the teams that drafted in the top 1702 01:25:37,000 --> 01:25:39,839 Speaker 2: eight over the last ten years, one of those teams 1703 01:25:39,880 --> 01:25:42,160 Speaker 2: has made it to the playoffs, so you can start 1704 01:25:42,200 --> 01:25:46,200 Speaker 2: thinking season win total odds, do they make the playoffs, 1705 01:25:46,400 --> 01:25:48,599 Speaker 2: those type of odds. All of those type of things 1706 01:25:48,640 --> 01:25:51,200 Speaker 2: are live here. So a lout of these eight teams, 1707 01:25:51,200 --> 01:25:54,280 Speaker 2: who do you like the most? Right, You've got just 1708 01:25:54,320 --> 01:26:03,040 Speaker 2: an order of when they drafted Titans, Jags, Giants, Patriots, Brown's, Raiders, Jets, Panthers. 1709 01:26:03,720 --> 01:26:04,760 Speaker 2: Out of all those who do you like? 1710 01:26:04,840 --> 01:26:07,439 Speaker 3: Well, I have one that I like. Those that I 1711 01:26:07,640 --> 01:26:12,880 Speaker 3: have the Panthers, you do, yeah, yeah, I think when 1712 01:26:12,920 --> 01:26:17,120 Speaker 3: you look at the way they finished last season, you 1713 01:26:17,280 --> 01:26:21,400 Speaker 3: have to like they won three last eight games or 1714 01:26:21,439 --> 01:26:23,120 Speaker 3: four and the last nine games it was four the last 1715 01:26:23,280 --> 01:26:25,800 Speaker 3: nine games. You know, they were very close with the 1716 01:26:25,840 --> 01:26:28,679 Speaker 3: Chiefs and the Eagles, and sometimes you have to lose 1717 01:26:28,720 --> 01:26:30,920 Speaker 3: those games small before you win them small. 1718 01:26:31,000 --> 01:26:31,160 Speaker 1: You know. 1719 01:26:32,200 --> 01:26:34,519 Speaker 3: Yeah, Bryce Young made a big improvement the end of 1720 01:26:34,560 --> 01:26:37,280 Speaker 3: the season, and I just think their roster has got 1721 01:26:37,360 --> 01:26:39,320 Speaker 3: a lot better. They've done a really good job of Hey, 1722 01:26:39,360 --> 01:26:41,400 Speaker 3: we got attack the defense, right. The defense is a 1723 01:26:41,400 --> 01:26:45,519 Speaker 3: problem last season, fregency. Let's attack the defense. Let's get 1724 01:26:45,760 --> 01:26:50,080 Speaker 3: Bryce Young another weapon in McMillan. Let's go defensive pass rush, 1725 01:26:50,120 --> 01:26:52,680 Speaker 3: for the next two draft picks. I like what the 1726 01:26:52,680 --> 01:26:54,760 Speaker 3: Panthers have done, and they're also in division that isn't great, 1727 01:26:54,840 --> 01:26:57,240 Speaker 3: right Atlanta. Everyone's high on them, but they're the Falcons. 1728 01:26:57,240 --> 01:27:00,439 Speaker 3: We don't know much about pen X right now. It 1729 01:27:00,479 --> 01:27:03,160 Speaker 3: didn't like the Falcons draft. The Saints are terrible and 1730 01:27:02,880 --> 01:27:04,439 Speaker 3: the Bucks are good not great. 1731 01:27:04,560 --> 01:27:04,680 Speaker 1: Right. 1732 01:27:04,680 --> 01:27:07,120 Speaker 3: The Panthers lost to them member in overtime on a 1733 01:27:07,120 --> 01:27:09,360 Speaker 3: fumble I think Brooks fumbled the ball or where the 1734 01:27:09,400 --> 01:27:11,920 Speaker 3: runnacks fumbled the ball there at the end. Oh, they 1735 01:27:12,000 --> 01:27:15,400 Speaker 3: had had that game, so I remember they had the 1736 01:27:15,439 --> 01:27:18,120 Speaker 3: Eagles game until they dropped the pass logat dropped that 1737 01:27:18,200 --> 01:27:21,320 Speaker 3: pass Chiefs game. The Chiefs game was twenty seven to 1738 01:27:21,360 --> 01:27:23,759 Speaker 3: twenty seven to the fourth quarter. Chiefs were up fourteen 1739 01:27:23,800 --> 01:27:25,840 Speaker 3: a half time. So it wasn't like it. You know, 1740 01:27:25,880 --> 01:27:27,800 Speaker 3: the Chiefs kind of fell asleep there a little bit. 1741 01:27:27,840 --> 01:27:31,400 Speaker 3: So nonetheless, to me, it's the Panthers those top seven, 1742 01:27:31,400 --> 01:27:33,759 Speaker 3: because you look, the Titans aren't there yet. The Giants 1743 01:27:34,000 --> 01:27:37,439 Speaker 3: not know Patriots in my mind, tough division, No Jets, No, 1744 01:27:37,640 --> 01:27:39,960 Speaker 3: I mean the Panthers stick out to me as the 1745 01:27:39,960 --> 01:27:41,600 Speaker 3: team that has the realistic chance to do that. 1746 01:27:42,640 --> 01:27:45,439 Speaker 1: Yeah, this is a wild stat to see a good 1747 01:27:45,479 --> 01:27:48,280 Speaker 1: pull on this one, Brian. I think out of these 1748 01:27:48,280 --> 01:27:52,960 Speaker 1: teams listed, I would say New England, the Jets, and 1749 01:27:53,479 --> 01:27:56,760 Speaker 1: Vegas that lest had the best chances. People are really 1750 01:27:56,800 --> 01:27:59,559 Speaker 1: high on the Patriots, I mean a season wins eight 1751 01:27:59,560 --> 01:28:02,200 Speaker 1: and a half for second year quarterback Drake May getting 1752 01:28:02,400 --> 01:28:05,360 Speaker 1: a lot of praise. Huh. I don't know the Raiders 1753 01:28:05,360 --> 01:28:09,519 Speaker 1: and Jets. You have two new quarterbacks taken over. Raiders 1754 01:28:09,560 --> 01:28:13,479 Speaker 1: will look totally different this year with Pete Garrell, Carol 1755 01:28:13,560 --> 01:28:18,160 Speaker 1: Gino Smith and the rookie there astroon genty boys. It's 1756 01:28:18,200 --> 01:28:21,400 Speaker 1: an interesting subject, it really is. And like I said, 1757 01:28:21,439 --> 01:28:25,640 Speaker 1: good pull, guys, I tell you it's off subject. Well 1758 01:28:25,640 --> 01:28:27,760 Speaker 1: it's not a subject left. But the last segment we 1759 01:28:27,800 --> 01:28:31,920 Speaker 1: had on someone said I had a comment here. It says, crack. 1760 01:28:32,160 --> 01:28:35,080 Speaker 1: You don't know how to pronounce the players' names, but 1761 01:28:35,200 --> 01:28:36,960 Speaker 1: yet you're betting on them. Well, let me just tell 1762 01:28:36,960 --> 01:28:40,360 Speaker 1: you something. I don't want to tell you how much 1763 01:28:40,640 --> 01:28:44,519 Speaker 1: money I have made, life changing money in my life 1764 01:28:44,560 --> 01:28:49,519 Speaker 1: I have made, not even knowing anything about the players. 1765 01:28:49,600 --> 01:28:52,160 Speaker 1: Or I don't want, I don't care. I don't you 1766 01:28:52,200 --> 01:28:54,400 Speaker 1: know that this has nothing to do with making sure 1767 01:28:54,400 --> 01:28:56,960 Speaker 1: the I remember I did a show on Showtime Action 1768 01:28:57,080 --> 01:29:01,200 Speaker 1: on Showtime docuseriies four parts and I made a comment 1769 01:29:01,240 --> 01:29:03,880 Speaker 1: and people went crazy on me. I said, listen, I 1770 01:29:04,439 --> 01:29:06,800 Speaker 1: can't name fifteen I think I said fifteen players, but 1771 01:29:07,080 --> 01:29:11,439 Speaker 1: fifteen starting quarterbacks in the NFL. But I know one thing. 1772 01:29:11,479 --> 01:29:12,960 Speaker 1: I want to bet a lot of money betting for 1773 01:29:13,160 --> 01:29:15,639 Speaker 1: or against them, and I'll stick to that. I don't 1774 01:29:15,720 --> 01:29:19,679 Speaker 1: have to know the names perfectly.

Really? No? 1828 01:31:52,240 --> 01:31:57,840 Speaker 3: So my so my my my grandfather on my mom's side. 1829 01:31:57,880 --> 01:31:59,960 Speaker 3: So my mom's dad passed away before I was born, 1830 01:32:00,760 --> 01:32:03,240 Speaker 3: and he bet on ponies every day. 1831 01:32:03,600 --> 01:32:05,720 Speaker 4: She told me, every day he bet on ponies. 1832 01:32:05,840 --> 01:32:09,240 Speaker 3: And so that that was sort of like my mom 1833 01:32:09,320 --> 01:32:11,720 Speaker 3: has always said that my grandfather would have been very 1834 01:32:11,800 --> 01:32:14,680 Speaker 3: happy with my career choice post playing career, because he 1835 01:32:14,680 --> 01:32:17,120 Speaker 3: would have loved and listening to me talk about gambling, 1836 01:32:17,160 --> 01:32:19,840 Speaker 3: but she saw sort of soft firsthand kind of the 1837 01:32:19,880 --> 01:32:24,080 Speaker 3: issues that come with gambling on ponies every day. So 1838 01:32:24,240 --> 01:32:27,000 Speaker 3: she's actually again she's funny. My mom, of course very 1839 01:32:27,040 --> 01:32:30,360 Speaker 3: much supports what I do for a living and my career, 1840 01:32:30,360 --> 01:32:32,639 Speaker 3: but I think she's against the gambling just from her 1841 01:32:32,640 --> 01:32:35,720 Speaker 3: experience with seeing her dad. Her dad do that. 1842 01:32:35,760 --> 01:32:39,960 Speaker 4: But ponies, men like are are hard like that. 1843 01:32:41,560 --> 01:32:44,439 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's like ten times more of a hole than sports. 1844 01:32:44,520 --> 01:32:46,200 Speaker 3: Yeah. And look I say this all the time, right, 1845 01:32:46,280 --> 01:32:49,559 Speaker 3: like you only gamble the amount your ford. 1846 01:32:50,000 --> 01:32:51,479 Speaker 4: Brian. I have talked about this the last couple of weeks. 1847 01:32:51,520 --> 01:32:53,960 Speaker 3: I had a rough stretch for like ten days in 1848 01:32:54,040 --> 01:32:56,280 Speaker 3: early May, and I'm doing I do my spreadsheet. It's 1849 01:32:56,400 --> 01:33:00,400 Speaker 3: it's a bloodbath at end of April early May. I'm 1850 01:33:00,400 --> 01:33:02,760 Speaker 3: doing better now. But I just manage. You manage your 1851 01:33:02,760 --> 01:33:05,280 Speaker 3: bank roll to where it doesn't affect your life at all. 1852 01:33:05,280 --> 01:33:07,920 Speaker 3: Like that, That's what it is. Yeah, if you if 1853 01:33:07,920 --> 01:33:09,680 Speaker 3: you're like cracking, you make a living out of this 1854 01:33:09,880 --> 01:33:11,640 Speaker 3: good good luck. I mean, obviously there are people that 1855 01:33:11,920 --> 01:33:14,559 Speaker 3: do that. But I try to win every wager I make. 1856 01:33:14,600 --> 01:33:16,960 Speaker 3: I don't make wagers to lose, but I also do 1857 01:33:17,040 --> 01:33:20,240 Speaker 3: it to where you know, it's not gonna change my 1858 01:33:20,360 --> 01:33:24,000 Speaker 3: life because I don't the fear of losing money, like 1859 01:33:24,040 --> 01:33:26,240 Speaker 3: the fear like working three hours today and then losing 1860 01:33:26,240 --> 01:33:28,160 Speaker 3: all this money gambling on sports today. It just like 1861 01:33:28,240 --> 01:33:31,160 Speaker 3: drives me crazy, like you know. So, I mean, like 1862 01:33:31,439 --> 01:33:33,280 Speaker 3: so that that there's a there's a you have to 1863 01:33:33,280 --> 01:33:36,439 Speaker 3: figure out what works for you, and part of it. 1864 01:33:36,479 --> 01:33:38,200 Speaker 3: I just don't talk about it with my family because 1865 01:33:38,240 --> 01:33:40,560 Speaker 3: my wife doesn't know. It's not like it's I'm withdrawing 1866 01:33:41,080 --> 01:33:43,040 Speaker 3: ten thousand dollars out of my account. My wife sees it, 1867 01:33:43,040 --> 01:33:44,240 Speaker 3: you know what I mean, Like, it's just that's not 1868 01:33:44,320 --> 01:33:45,040 Speaker 3: the way I gamble. 1869 01:33:45,160 --> 01:33:50,479 Speaker 1: So Jeff didn't though, did you no way? May? No May? 1870 01:33:50,520 --> 01:33:53,720 Speaker 3: I didn't, but I start April was bad. It's April was. 1871 01:33:54,800 --> 01:33:57,519 Speaker 3: April was a rough one. May was a lot better. 1872 01:33:57,880 --> 01:34:02,920 Speaker 1: Well, April was a rough monthly right, Early May pretty 1873 01:34:02,960 --> 01:34:03,559 Speaker 1: good on something. 1874 01:34:03,800 --> 01:34:06,400 Speaker 3: Early May was bad. Hockey's been good the last like 1875 01:34:06,400 --> 01:34:08,840 Speaker 3: three weeks. I got I'd be honest, I got it. 1876 01:34:09,040 --> 01:34:10,760 Speaker 3: I started betting hockey this year because I was doing 1877 01:34:10,840 --> 01:34:12,679 Speaker 3: a show on v SIN and we had a hockey 1878 01:34:12,680 --> 01:34:14,400 Speaker 3: guy on. I got really interested in it. I got 1879 01:34:14,479 --> 01:34:16,040 Speaker 3: kind of into it. I got I got a. 1880 01:34:16,000 --> 01:34:17,679 Speaker 4: Little too much. It was a little too much hockey. 1881 01:34:17,720 --> 01:34:19,360 Speaker 3: No, that was a lot of my losses in in 1882 01:34:19,439 --> 01:34:21,920 Speaker 3: April was hockey, and I probably should not do that 1883 01:34:21,920 --> 01:34:24,160 Speaker 3: again next year. It's why keeping a track of your wage. 1884 01:34:24,200 --> 01:34:26,240 Speaker 3: I know Brian does as well, Crack does I do. 1885 01:34:26,920 --> 01:34:29,400 Speaker 3: It's good to keep track of what you're doing so 1886 01:34:29,479 --> 01:34:31,479 Speaker 3: you realize, like, yeah, I probably not gonna do that 1887 01:34:31,520 --> 01:34:31,920 Speaker 3: next year. 1888 01:34:32,520 --> 01:34:34,520 Speaker 1: Brian, What about you? 1889 01:34:34,560 --> 01:34:34,880 Speaker 2: What's that? 1890 01:34:35,640 --> 01:34:36,599 Speaker 1: Your your family? 1891 01:34:36,600 --> 01:34:39,479 Speaker 2: Oh fan, No, no, your brothers. 1892 01:34:39,520 --> 01:34:41,160 Speaker 1: You grew up in an area that could have been 1893 01:34:41,200 --> 01:34:42,360 Speaker 1: gambling there, you know, so. 1894 01:34:42,600 --> 01:34:44,040 Speaker 2: Oh absolutely, I know. 1895 01:34:44,240 --> 01:34:44,320 Speaker 1: Uh. 1896 01:34:44,680 --> 01:34:50,240 Speaker 2: My dad's brother, Russ, was a gambler, but he passed 1897 01:34:50,280 --> 01:34:53,120 Speaker 2: away when I was very very young, so I didn't 1898 01:34:53,200 --> 01:34:55,559 Speaker 2: know him. But my dad would tell me stories here 1899 01:34:55,600 --> 01:34:59,240 Speaker 2: and there. But no, nothing like it wasn't a daily part. 1900 01:34:59,280 --> 01:35:00,760 Speaker 2: I don't know that my day had ever did it. 1901 01:35:01,200 --> 01:35:04,280 Speaker 2: You know, maybe like with friends at work, but nothing, 1902 01:35:04,760 --> 01:35:09,640 Speaker 2: you know, nothing professionally or anything like that. So yeah, no, 1903 01:35:09,720 --> 01:35:12,320 Speaker 2: it was, Uh, this really just something that I got 1904 01:35:12,320 --> 01:35:16,760 Speaker 2: into a while back. But I'm curious though, going back 1905 01:35:16,800 --> 01:35:20,120 Speaker 2: to the crazy NFL stat Ye, yeah, a team that 1906 01:35:20,240 --> 01:35:23,439 Speaker 2: drafts in the top eight. Uh, one of those teams 1907 01:35:23,439 --> 01:35:26,320 Speaker 2: goes on to make the playoffs the same year. It's 1908 01:35:26,320 --> 01:35:28,879 Speaker 2: happened in the last each of the last ten years. 1909 01:35:29,320 --> 01:35:31,720 Speaker 2: I'm surprised on your Patriots take, Jeff, You're not high 1910 01:35:31,720 --> 01:35:33,280 Speaker 2: on the Patriots at all, right, Like. 1911 01:35:34,360 --> 01:35:37,720 Speaker 3: I think, I think eight and a half feels like 1912 01:35:38,000 --> 01:35:43,080 Speaker 3: a lot when you still have question marks about some 1913 01:35:43,160 --> 01:35:46,320 Speaker 3: of their team. I think Drake May is going to 1914 01:35:46,400 --> 01:35:49,000 Speaker 3: be really good. I think he showed that, but I'm 1915 01:35:49,040 --> 01:35:51,120 Speaker 3: still questioning their wide receivers. I mean, so you know, 1916 01:35:51,160 --> 01:35:54,439 Speaker 3: their number one wide receivers supposedly was seen, you know, 1917 01:35:54,479 --> 01:35:57,720 Speaker 3: on video with a substance that's probably not legal the 1918 01:35:57,800 --> 01:35:58,760 Speaker 3: National Football League. 1919 01:35:58,880 --> 01:36:01,240 Speaker 2: He wasn't taking the NFL, no no comment. 1920 01:36:01,280 --> 01:36:04,120 Speaker 3: They're like, yeah, well he I mean, look, he wasn't 1921 01:36:04,160 --> 01:36:07,840 Speaker 3: taking the substance at the time. You know, if you can't, 1922 01:36:08,040 --> 01:36:10,400 Speaker 3: I don't do anything about that. But they're not great 1923 01:36:10,400 --> 01:36:13,519 Speaker 3: decision making. I mean it looks they're wide receivers Stefon Diggs, 1924 01:36:13,640 --> 01:36:18,960 Speaker 3: Mac Collins, the Mario Douglas. They drafted obviously Polk last year, 1925 01:36:18,960 --> 01:36:20,920 Speaker 3: who can't catch the ball, but he's a good like 1926 01:36:21,040 --> 01:36:23,479 Speaker 3: you know, Kendrick Born. It's just not a great offensive 1927 01:36:23,520 --> 01:36:25,840 Speaker 3: line is better with Will Campbell, but you know, it's 1928 01:36:25,840 --> 01:36:28,160 Speaker 3: still some question marks there, Like I like the Trevon 1929 01:36:28,240 --> 01:36:30,760 Speaker 3: Hntererson draft pick, and the defense is gonna be good. 1930 01:36:30,760 --> 01:36:32,400 Speaker 3: But you know, you play in a division where you 1931 01:36:32,479 --> 01:36:34,800 Speaker 3: know you have Buffalo of course, and you have a 1932 01:36:35,000 --> 01:36:37,040 Speaker 3: Miami team that depends on Timmy Hear you play them 1933 01:36:37,080 --> 01:36:38,439 Speaker 3: that you know what they're gonna get from them. 1934 01:36:38,880 --> 01:36:40,599 Speaker 4: I just I think it's a. 1935 01:36:40,479 --> 01:36:45,080 Speaker 3: Lot for a team we just don't know yet to 1936 01:36:45,160 --> 01:36:46,120 Speaker 3: win nine games. 1937 01:36:46,520 --> 01:36:50,720 Speaker 2: You know, there's it's I'm not saying the Patriots are 1938 01:36:50,760 --> 01:36:53,599 Speaker 2: gonna be in the AFC title game. Just make sure 1939 01:36:53,680 --> 01:36:57,559 Speaker 2: you don't lose that point, Okay, but it's funny to 1940 01:36:57,680 --> 01:37:02,040 Speaker 2: compare the Patriots to the Wall Washington Commanders. Now we know, 1941 01:37:02,160 --> 01:37:04,880 Speaker 2: let's start off as be obvious. Drake May is not 1942 01:37:04,920 --> 01:37:07,320 Speaker 2: going to be as productive as Jaden Daniels this season. 1943 01:37:07,360 --> 01:37:10,920 Speaker 2: Jayden Daniels is a rock star. Drake May showed promise 1944 01:37:11,000 --> 01:37:13,080 Speaker 2: last year. I think he's gonna be a good NFL quarterback, 1945 01:37:13,120 --> 01:37:17,360 Speaker 2: but I'm not expecting a Daniels like production line from him, 1946 01:37:17,600 --> 01:37:19,360 Speaker 2: So keep that in mind. But I'm not saying they're 1947 01:37:19,400 --> 01:37:21,479 Speaker 2: gonna get to the AFC title game. But just keep 1948 01:37:21,560 --> 01:37:24,360 Speaker 2: in mind these comparisons when we're thinking about the Patriots 1949 01:37:24,400 --> 01:37:26,720 Speaker 2: in the playoffs. Okay, that's the whole point of this. 1950 01:37:27,320 --> 01:37:29,599 Speaker 2: If you look at Washington, they were a four win 1951 01:37:29,760 --> 01:37:33,120 Speaker 2: team two years ago. They made a lot of noise 1952 01:37:33,160 --> 01:37:35,920 Speaker 2: in free agency, picked up a lot of dudes, and 1953 01:37:35,960 --> 01:37:38,519 Speaker 2: then they ended up having a rock star quarterback and 1954 01:37:38,560 --> 01:37:41,800 Speaker 2: they won twelve games, made it to the NFC title game. 1955 01:37:42,520 --> 01:37:44,559 Speaker 2: So you look at the Patriots coming off a four 1956 01:37:44,640 --> 01:37:48,200 Speaker 2: win season last year, right, same amount, a lot of 1957 01:37:48,200 --> 01:37:50,360 Speaker 2: noise in free agency, picked up a lot of players 1958 01:37:50,400 --> 01:37:53,599 Speaker 2: that I think will help them out. And then also, 1959 01:37:53,720 --> 01:37:58,719 Speaker 2: what's even crazier, you look at the the Washington schedule 1960 01:37:58,800 --> 01:38:01,840 Speaker 2: last season. They played the AFC North. Yeah, and the 1961 01:38:01,920 --> 01:38:05,439 Speaker 2: NFC South. NFC South is favorable AFC North top to bottom, 1962 01:38:05,439 --> 01:38:08,880 Speaker 2: pretty tough. It's exactly who the Patriots played this season. 1963 01:38:09,479 --> 01:38:12,840 Speaker 2: It's kind of weird how there are some similarities between 1964 01:38:12,840 --> 01:38:16,480 Speaker 2: the two teams, and as far as making the playoffs, 1965 01:38:16,640 --> 01:38:18,240 Speaker 2: a couple of things that I think you could tie 1966 01:38:18,320 --> 01:38:22,479 Speaker 2: together with Washington as an interesting parallel right there. But 1967 01:38:23,240 --> 01:38:24,360 Speaker 2: I think they could have a good year. 1968 01:38:24,479 --> 01:38:26,760 Speaker 3: I think you just make sure we heard that right, 1969 01:38:26,840 --> 01:38:30,639 Speaker 3: Crack says, and that crack. Brian says that the Patriots 1970 01:38:30,680 --> 01:38:34,000 Speaker 3: called answer championship game. So that's that's what I heard. 1971 01:38:34,080 --> 01:38:35,640 Speaker 2: No, no, no, no, you misheard me, right. 1972 01:38:35,840 --> 01:38:39,720 Speaker 3: Yeah, the Commanders, guys, I think we even undersell they 1973 01:38:39,760 --> 01:38:42,320 Speaker 3: won fourteen games last season, including the playoffs. Of course, 1974 01:38:42,840 --> 01:38:46,400 Speaker 3: it was legitimately a really good football team. I don't 1975 01:38:46,439 --> 01:38:49,000 Speaker 3: think we give them the credit for being that good. 1976 01:38:50,520 --> 01:38:52,760 Speaker 3: You know they were. They were good and obviously you 1977 01:38:52,760 --> 01:38:55,400 Speaker 3: know they ran into the Eagles and in their division 1978 01:38:55,439 --> 01:38:58,200 Speaker 3: and that happens. I mean, Eagles were just like a juggernaut. 1979 01:38:59,040 --> 01:39:01,360 Speaker 3: I think what's fun about this season for me so 1980 01:39:01,479 --> 01:39:04,200 Speaker 3: far as like, is just looking at the NFC, right, 1981 01:39:05,160 --> 01:39:07,679 Speaker 3: who is who's taking down the Eagles? 1982 01:39:07,960 --> 01:39:08,080 Speaker 1: Uh? 1983 01:39:08,600 --> 01:39:10,200 Speaker 3: I think there's a lot of for me, just a 1984 01:39:10,200 --> 01:39:12,000 Speaker 3: lot of questions on who that would be. I haven't 1985 01:39:12,040 --> 01:39:15,640 Speaker 3: made a wager on that yet. I don't know what 1986 01:39:15,680 --> 01:39:18,519 Speaker 3: team I would feel comfortable with saying, hey man, this 1987 01:39:18,600 --> 01:39:21,960 Speaker 3: team I'm ben to win the NFC. It feels like 1988 01:39:22,080 --> 01:39:23,360 Speaker 3: a lot of great options. 1989 01:39:23,080 --> 01:39:26,000 Speaker 2: Right now, I hear you. I just think to wear 1990 01:39:26,040 --> 01:39:29,559 Speaker 2: and tear just the season itself, just the game of 1991 01:39:29,600 --> 01:39:32,639 Speaker 2: football itself. You know, it might get in the Eagles way. 1992 01:39:33,280 --> 01:39:35,360 Speaker 3: Eagles yet either, But I just don't know which team 1993 01:39:35,920 --> 01:39:36,880 Speaker 3: I feel comfortable. 1994 01:39:37,439 --> 01:39:39,040 Speaker 4: Probably the Rams right now. 1995 01:39:39,240 --> 01:39:42,960 Speaker 2: Lions, Yeah, they're gonna be blessed with better health. 1996 01:39:43,360 --> 01:39:45,200 Speaker 3: That's a huge part of the NFL. Right the next 1997 01:39:45,280 --> 01:39:47,479 Speaker 3: year you get, you get healthy, but they lose both coordinators. 1998 01:39:47,560 --> 01:39:48,840 Speaker 3: Is that a concern for you at all? 1999 01:39:49,040 --> 01:39:49,360 Speaker 2: Yeah? 2000 01:39:49,360 --> 01:39:52,160 Speaker 3: Absolutely, I'm curious about the Lions, and the Lions feel 2001 01:39:52,160 --> 01:39:53,559 Speaker 3: like a good option there of course. 2002 01:39:54,160 --> 01:39:54,479 Speaker 1: Yeah. 2003 01:39:54,680 --> 01:39:56,160 Speaker 2: Now they're gonna be tough. I think you're gonna be 2004 01:39:56,160 --> 01:39:57,120 Speaker 2: a really tough out. 2005 01:39:57,280 --> 01:39:57,559 Speaker 1: All right. 2006 01:39:57,560 --> 01:40:01,200 Speaker 2: We've got Bill Krachenberger, professional sports handicapper.

So here's 2034 01:41:21,040 --> 01:41:27,679 Speaker 2: my mini rant. First. Okay, the SGA free throw merchant 2035 01:41:28,160 --> 01:41:32,080 Speaker 2: stuff is so stupid. There are a lot of people 2036 01:41:32,080 --> 01:41:35,360 Speaker 2: are complaining because SGA does a great job of drawing 2037 01:41:35,479 --> 01:41:38,200 Speaker 2: fouls and getting to the free throw line. And listen, 2038 01:41:38,240 --> 01:41:39,880 Speaker 2: I can understand if that's not your cup of tea, 2039 01:41:39,960 --> 01:41:44,439 Speaker 2: that's fine, But to just crush the guy, why would 2040 01:41:44,479 --> 01:41:47,080 Speaker 2: he not draw files and go to the free throw line. 2041 01:41:47,280 --> 01:41:49,639 Speaker 2: He would not be doing his job if he can 2042 01:41:49,720 --> 01:41:52,080 Speaker 2: do that on the regular and just chose not to 2043 01:41:52,200 --> 01:41:55,559 Speaker 2: because it's an unpopular brand of basketball. It's just such 2044 01:41:55,560 --> 01:41:58,240 Speaker 2: a silly criticism. It reminds me you're a fight fan, crack. 2045 01:41:58,680 --> 01:42:01,680 Speaker 2: It reminds me of people criticising Floyd Mayweather Junior for 2046 01:42:01,760 --> 01:42:04,400 Speaker 2: not being a knockout artist. It's like, the goal is 2047 01:42:04,439 --> 01:42:08,559 Speaker 2: to win, right, It's not to score knockouts. So oh 2048 01:42:08,840 --> 01:42:12,200 Speaker 2: money may never knock so he what it's like. He's winning. 2049 01:42:12,680 --> 01:42:15,360 Speaker 2: All he does is win. He's never lost, like, and 2050 01:42:15,439 --> 01:42:17,559 Speaker 2: you're hammering him. It's just so stupid. 2051 01:42:17,600 --> 01:42:17,760 Speaker 1: Man. 2052 01:42:17,800 --> 01:42:19,840 Speaker 2: If SGA can get on get to the free throw 2053 01:42:19,880 --> 01:42:22,280 Speaker 2: line time and time and time again, he'd be out 2054 01:42:22,320 --> 01:42:24,640 Speaker 2: of his mind not to do that, and to just 2055 01:42:25,160 --> 01:42:27,400 Speaker 2: rage against that is such a waste of time. It 2056 01:42:27,520 --> 01:42:30,680 Speaker 2: drives me crazy. I hate it. I hate the complaining 2057 01:42:30,720 --> 01:42:32,880 Speaker 2: more than the style of basketball. Put it that way. 2058 01:42:33,880 --> 01:42:37,439 Speaker 3: I think it's a lot to do with just the flopping. 2059 01:42:37,960 --> 01:42:41,799 Speaker 3: I actually think Jalen Brunson's style of play foul Merchant 2060 01:42:41,840 --> 01:42:44,880 Speaker 3: is worse, where he will be dribbling and be in 2061 01:42:44,920 --> 01:42:46,960 Speaker 3: front of a defender and then back up into the 2062 01:42:47,000 --> 01:42:50,160 Speaker 3: defender to get the call. I find that aesthetically less 2063 01:42:50,200 --> 01:42:53,160 Speaker 3: pleasing to watch an SGA who does flop a little. 2064 01:42:53,160 --> 01:42:55,519 Speaker 3: It's a flopping right right. It's like the oh, like 2065 01:42:55,800 --> 01:42:57,519 Speaker 3: you're like, you know, we didn't even get touched. The 2066 01:42:57,640 --> 01:43:00,559 Speaker 3: times doesn't even get touched and he's flopping. But yeah, 2067 01:43:00,600 --> 01:43:02,479 Speaker 3: of course they're gonna call it, go for it, the 2068 01:43:02,520 --> 01:43:05,439 Speaker 3: brunts and thing frustrating because you've been the defender. Just 2069 01:43:05,479 --> 01:43:08,080 Speaker 3: go shoot the ball, like, go, go make your layup, 2070 01:43:08,760 --> 01:43:10,880 Speaker 3: go get But he backs into the guy and it's 2071 01:43:10,960 --> 01:43:12,040 Speaker 3: that that to me is worse. 2072 01:43:13,080 --> 01:43:16,440 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, no, no question. I agree these criticisms are stupid. 2073 01:43:16,840 --> 01:43:18,920 Speaker 1: SGA is the m v P and one of the 2074 01:43:18,920 --> 01:43:21,479 Speaker 1: most elite scores that we've ever seen. So part of 2075 01:43:21,520 --> 01:43:24,400 Speaker 1: scoring is finding ways to get to the free throw line. 2076 01:43:24,400 --> 01:43:28,320 Speaker 1: It's really an art of the game. Top scorer in 2077 01:43:28,439 --> 01:43:31,400 Speaker 1: NBA history has always been able to get teams to 2078 01:43:31,479 --> 01:43:35,880 Speaker 1: foul them, look at Michael Jordan, Kobe Bryant. Overall, I'd 2079 01:43:35,880 --> 01:43:39,040 Speaker 1: like NBA games to be more physical and less foul called. 2080 01:43:39,080 --> 01:43:42,760 Speaker 1: But it is what it is. There we go. Well. 2081 01:43:42,800 --> 01:43:47,280 Speaker 2: I always throw out the the homer slash hater test, 2082 01:43:47,560 --> 01:43:52,400 Speaker 2: right if you're you know your your emotions are involved here. 2083 01:43:52,479 --> 01:43:54,200 Speaker 2: It's a good test to find out if you're being 2084 01:43:54,200 --> 01:43:58,160 Speaker 2: a homer or a hater. So for anyone who's criticizing SGA, 2085 01:43:58,600 --> 01:44:02,519 Speaker 2: you gotta bust out the hater test. Would you be 2086 01:44:02,640 --> 01:44:06,360 Speaker 2: reacting the same way if your favorite player on your 2087 01:44:06,360 --> 01:44:08,840 Speaker 2: favorite team was getting to the free throw line the 2088 01:44:08,880 --> 01:44:11,920 Speaker 2: exact same way, there is zero chance you would have 2089 01:44:12,040 --> 01:44:13,920 Speaker 2: that much of a problem with it, which shows you 2090 01:44:14,240 --> 01:44:16,559 Speaker 2: just being an hater. When it comes to SGA getting 2091 01:44:16,600 --> 01:44:18,400 Speaker 2: to the free throw line all the time, that's really all. 2092 01:44:18,840 --> 01:44:21,439 Speaker 3: Which again is like the being hater AD's part of sports. 2093 01:44:21,439 --> 01:44:24,200 Speaker 3: I get it, but there also is are to to 2094 01:44:24,360 --> 01:44:25,600 Speaker 3: it's just a flop pick. I think if he was 2095 01:44:25,640 --> 01:44:27,439 Speaker 3: getting the line just to say, but you know, getting 2096 01:44:27,479 --> 01:44:29,559 Speaker 3: foul what he is, but just didn't flop so much, 2097 01:44:29,920 --> 01:44:31,880 Speaker 3: there wouldn't be such a discussion about it. 2098 01:44:32,960 --> 01:44:36,280 Speaker 2: I think if he wasn't an MVP and Okay, see, 2099 01:44:36,320 --> 01:44:39,080 Speaker 2: didn't win sixty eight games, it'd be a non story. 2100 01:44:39,120 --> 01:44:42,240 Speaker 4: You know, yeah, that's right, you know, yeah, of course. 2101 01:44:42,080 --> 01:44:45,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, they're so good.

Okay, so 2167 01:47:38,160 --> 01:47:40,280 Speaker 3: here's here's my repay review rant, brought to you by 2168 01:47:40,360 --> 01:47:45,240 Speaker 3: Jeff Schwartz. Repay review to me, the intent of it, right, 2169 01:47:45,280 --> 01:47:49,240 Speaker 3: and the purpose is to a overcall or overturn orgregious 2170 01:47:49,280 --> 01:47:51,240 Speaker 3: eras that are made. We far too often use it 2171 01:47:51,280 --> 01:47:54,840 Speaker 3: for minuscule eras that are made. And b you have 2172 01:47:54,960 --> 01:47:58,160 Speaker 3: to have you know, indisputable video is to overturn the 2173 01:47:58,160 --> 01:47:59,960 Speaker 3: call in the field. Right, That's part of what review 2174 01:48:00,680 --> 01:48:03,720 Speaker 3: and reviewers turned in now to just whatever you want 2175 01:48:03,760 --> 01:48:05,680 Speaker 3: it to be at any single time. So for those 2176 01:48:05,720 --> 01:48:08,200 Speaker 3: who missed the Organ game, they're down six to four, 2177 01:48:08,200 --> 01:48:11,920 Speaker 3: they weren't playing very well to Utah Valley this first 2178 01:48:11,960 --> 01:48:15,920 Speaker 3: and third, no outs, they're down six to four. There 2179 01:48:16,000 --> 01:48:19,000 Speaker 3: is a ball hit to left field is caught. There's 2180 01:48:19,000 --> 01:48:22,200 Speaker 3: a plate at to plate. I think the obstruction rule 2181 01:48:22,240 --> 01:48:24,840 Speaker 3: in college sports is a little bs So the destruction 2182 01:48:24,960 --> 01:48:27,479 Speaker 3: rule basically is you cannot block the path of a 2183 01:48:27,560 --> 01:48:29,760 Speaker 3: runner at any base. It's basically buster or posy rule. 2184 01:48:29,920 --> 01:48:32,439 Speaker 3: When he got trucked in twenty eleven, got run over, 2185 01:48:32,720 --> 01:48:35,439 Speaker 3: broke his leg. They have now said catchers, it's a 2186 01:48:35,439 --> 01:48:39,879 Speaker 3: little harsher in college sports and professional sports cannot catchers. 2187 01:48:40,080 --> 01:48:42,960 Speaker 3: It's most about catchers cannot be blocking a path to 2188 01:48:43,000 --> 01:48:46,000 Speaker 3: home plate till they have the ball in their possession. 2189 01:48:46,920 --> 01:48:49,320 Speaker 3: I think the rule often gets used way too much. 2190 01:48:49,600 --> 01:48:51,960 Speaker 3: When guys are out by a mile, they hit the 2191 01:48:52,000 --> 01:48:54,880 Speaker 3: catcher and it's like obstruction and you're like, you're seven 2192 01:48:54,920 --> 01:49:00,360 Speaker 3: steps away, you are out, okay. In this case, catcher 2193 01:49:00,400 --> 01:49:04,040 Speaker 3: for Utah Valley was over the plate the entire time. 2194 01:49:04,600 --> 01:49:05,639 Speaker 2: Yes, the entire time. 2195 01:49:05,680 --> 01:49:07,679 Speaker 3: There's no there's no debate. He was over the plate 2196 01:49:07,680 --> 01:49:09,960 Speaker 3: the entire time. He never had possession of the ball, 2197 01:49:10,240 --> 01:49:13,320 Speaker 3: not one time. The ball hit the turf, bounced up 2198 01:49:13,360 --> 01:49:16,439 Speaker 3: off his glove. And then as because he's in front 2199 01:49:16,439 --> 01:49:17,960 Speaker 3: of the plate like he was in front of the 2200 01:49:18,000 --> 01:49:19,960 Speaker 3: plate like in the other batter's box in the left 2201 01:49:19,960 --> 01:49:23,479 Speaker 3: hand batter's box, the runner attempted to slide ran into 2202 01:49:23,600 --> 01:49:26,960 Speaker 3: him without he didn't have the ball, mind you, and 2203 01:49:27,000 --> 01:49:28,120 Speaker 3: he was saying ruled safe. 2204 01:49:28,479 --> 01:49:30,439 Speaker 4: They reviewed it and said he was. 2205 01:49:30,400 --> 01:49:35,320 Speaker 3: Ejected for malicious contact and there was no obstruction. So 2206 01:49:37,200 --> 01:49:41,320 Speaker 3: every baseball person saw that play and was like, that's wrong. 2207 01:49:41,520 --> 01:49:46,200 Speaker 3: I couldn't find one baseball person. Of course, you Washington 2208 01:49:46,240 --> 01:49:49,320 Speaker 3: fans and USC right in my mention, one baseball person 2209 01:49:49,360 --> 01:49:51,960 Speaker 3: and heon covers the sport who thought that was the 2210 01:49:52,040 --> 01:49:56,240 Speaker 3: right call. A it was obstruction and b you know 2211 01:49:56,320 --> 01:49:58,360 Speaker 3: he ran into him as in his slide because the 2212 01:49:58,360 --> 01:50:01,160 Speaker 3: catcher was four feet in front of home plate. And 2213 01:50:01,720 --> 01:50:03,479 Speaker 3: you know I see this in this idea of like, 2214 01:50:03,479 --> 01:50:05,080 Speaker 3: well he didn't, he didn't he slid too late. No 2215 01:50:05,160 --> 01:50:07,519 Speaker 3: he didn't. If you look at the video and the pictures, 2216 01:50:07,720 --> 01:50:11,000 Speaker 3: he's outside the left handed batter's box attempting to slide, Brian, 2217 01:50:11,280 --> 01:50:14,519 Speaker 3: and yes, he collided with the catcher who didn't have 2218 01:50:14,600 --> 01:50:18,160 Speaker 3: the baseball, didn't have the ball, the ball was behind 2219 01:50:18,240 --> 01:50:21,000 Speaker 3: him because he missed it. So I just like that 2220 01:50:21,080 --> 01:50:24,120 Speaker 3: to me is not review. Is for review, is not 2221 01:50:24,640 --> 01:50:27,439 Speaker 3: to look at that play and throw out the organ 2222 01:50:27,520 --> 01:50:29,280 Speaker 3: player for malicious contact. 2223 01:50:29,400 --> 01:50:31,000 Speaker 4: And Organ played poorly anyways. 2224 01:50:31,280 --> 01:50:33,240 Speaker 3: They lost by one run, though I guess what that 2225 01:50:33,320 --> 01:50:35,360 Speaker 3: run run would have been that run right there, So 2226 01:50:35,760 --> 01:50:37,320 Speaker 3: I just thought it was bad. 2227 01:50:37,360 --> 01:50:38,799 Speaker 4: I thought it was a bad. 2228 01:50:38,640 --> 01:50:42,120 Speaker 3: Process to get to a point where A they put 2229 01:50:42,120 --> 01:50:45,360 Speaker 3: the obstruction rules on the and I guess in the 2230 01:50:45,479 --> 01:50:48,040 Speaker 3: end they're saying that malicious contact over rules the obstruction, 2231 01:50:48,439 --> 01:50:51,480 Speaker 3: but the obstruction the contact only happened because of the obstruction. 2232 01:50:51,400 --> 01:50:53,680 Speaker 2: So that which is it? 2233 01:50:53,760 --> 01:50:56,240 Speaker 3: So I can't say if you're. 2234 01:50:56,120 --> 01:50:58,840 Speaker 2: In front of my path to the plate, then all 2235 01:50:58,880 --> 01:51:02,040 Speaker 2: bets are off. I don't want to hear about there 2236 01:51:02,120 --> 01:51:05,080 Speaker 2: was a malicious contact. It's like you shouldn't have been there. 2237 01:51:05,200 --> 01:51:07,200 Speaker 2: If you weren't there, there's nothing, there's no one to 2238 01:51:07,280 --> 01:51:09,800 Speaker 2: run into. I don't know how they could say that 2239 01:51:09,960 --> 01:51:10,960 Speaker 2: wasn't an obstruction. 2240 01:51:11,280 --> 01:51:11,519 Speaker 1: Crack. 2241 01:51:11,600 --> 01:51:13,320 Speaker 2: Okay, you want to hit on that or anything else 2242 01:51:13,320 --> 01:51:15,160 Speaker 2: on the alta, but let's uh. 2243 01:51:16,760 --> 01:51:18,800 Speaker 1: I'll start with the college baseball, like I've had a 2244 01:51:18,840 --> 01:51:21,840 Speaker 1: good start betting these games so far.

Put up numbers almost 2270 01:52:50,280 --> 01:52:53,799 Speaker 2: ninety catches, nearly nine hundred yards. Those are huge numbers 2271 01:52:53,840 --> 01:52:56,519 Speaker 2: for a tight end. He had eight touchdown catches. 2272 01:52:56,720 --> 01:52:59,040 Speaker 3: Yeah, and we and he may looked dumb. 2273 01:52:59,840 --> 01:53:02,920 Speaker 2: He had a really good season and he's due to 2274 01:53:02,960 --> 01:53:06,120 Speaker 2: make four point eight million dollars. He wants a reworked 2275 01:53:06,160 --> 01:53:08,519 Speaker 2: contract right coming off a Pro Bowl year, and the 2276 01:53:08,560 --> 01:53:11,080 Speaker 2: Dolphins are like, whoa whoa you want more than five 2277 01:53:11,120 --> 01:53:14,519 Speaker 2: million dollars. Yikes, we got to trade this guy. And 2278 01:53:14,560 --> 01:53:17,920 Speaker 2: that's listen. I like Tua, I don't love him because 2279 01:53:17,960 --> 01:53:20,519 Speaker 2: he's banged up all the time and he doesn't produce 2280 01:53:20,760 --> 01:53:24,360 Speaker 2: on a level that's comparable to his pay. And this 2281 01:53:24,439 --> 01:53:28,439 Speaker 2: is the downside of overpaying a good quarterback, even a 2282 01:53:28,439 --> 01:53:31,880 Speaker 2: good quarterback where you're only pro bowler. You're like, yeah, 2283 01:53:31,880 --> 01:53:34,200 Speaker 2: we gotta think about trading this freaking guy. You know, 2284 01:53:34,520 --> 01:53:38,559 Speaker 2: he's making four point eight million dollars. It's insanity, but 2285 01:53:39,000 --> 01:53:40,880 Speaker 2: that's the way it is. You got a skimp at 2286 01:53:40,920 --> 01:53:43,479 Speaker 2: a lot of spots. And that is the pain and 2287 01:53:43,520 --> 01:53:47,840 Speaker 2: misery that Niners fans will soon feel with overpaying brock Perdy, 2288 01:53:47,840 --> 01:53:51,080 Speaker 2: who's good but not a difference maker. He's not special 2289 01:53:51,160 --> 01:53:52,799 Speaker 2: and you're paying him special money. 2290 01:53:53,800 --> 01:53:56,960 Speaker 3: So I wonder, from the Steelers perspective, like the point 2291 01:53:56,960 --> 01:53:58,800 Speaker 3: of this too, what you need another tight ends? Does 2292 01:53:58,800 --> 01:54:02,400 Speaker 3: he play? Yeah, it's he. So I'm one of the 2293 01:54:02,479 --> 01:54:04,120 Speaker 3: topic you didn't bring up quickly. I don't think I 2294 01:54:04,120 --> 01:54:07,400 Speaker 3: got like two minutes here. Okay, well maybe I don't. 2295 01:54:07,439 --> 01:54:12,479 Speaker 3: But Aaron Rodgers is going to be a Steeler, but 2296 01:54:12,640 --> 01:54:15,640 Speaker 3: there's something he has to deal with beforehand that he 2297 01:54:15,680 --> 01:54:19,080 Speaker 3: can't be a Steeler. Every other starting quarterback is in 2298 01:54:19,120 --> 01:54:21,200 Speaker 3: the in the National FOOTBA League, is in their building 2299 01:54:21,280 --> 01:54:23,680 Speaker 3: right now, with also has things to deal with in 2300 01:54:23,680 --> 01:54:26,120 Speaker 3: their personal life. So I'm kind of tired of this 2301 01:54:26,160 --> 01:54:30,360 Speaker 3: bs of Rogers doing things differently and it being excused. 2302 01:54:30,920 --> 01:54:32,120 Speaker 3: If you want to be a Steeler, he be in 2303 01:54:32,120 --> 01:54:34,360 Speaker 3: the building. It's that simple. Every other quarterback is in 2304 01:54:34,400 --> 01:54:37,000 Speaker 3: the building who also has personal things to deal with 2305 01:54:37,040 --> 01:54:37,440 Speaker 3: as well. 2306 01:54:38,120 --> 01:54:41,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, well, Rogers has to deal with the disease of me. 2307 01:54:41,760 --> 01:54:45,480 Speaker 2: That's what he's really dealing with. It's my time, it's 2308 01:54:45,560 --> 01:54:48,240 Speaker 2: what's convenient for me. It's like, bro, come on, man, 2309 01:54:48,400 --> 01:54:51,520 Speaker 2: Like you said, Jeff, every quarterback is dealing with something, 2310 01:54:52,120 --> 01:54:54,720 Speaker 2: and there's no way that you can convince me that 2311 01:54:54,760 --> 01:54:57,680 Speaker 2: Aaron Rodgers couldn't be with his team right now. He's 2312 01:54:57,720 --> 01:54:59,640 Speaker 2: just choosing not to be great. That's all it is. 2313 01:55:00,080 --> 01:55:01,480 Speaker 1: Are you sick? 2314 01:55:02,280 --> 01:55:04,800 Speaker 2: Yeah?
