The NBA hoping praying that Steph Curry 23 00:01:20,760 --> 00:01:23,399 Speaker 1: will make it into the first round of the playoffs. 24 00:01:23,840 --> 00:01:26,520 Speaker 1: But I got to get by the Memphis Grizzlies. That'll 25 00:01:26,560 --> 00:01:29,399 Speaker 1: be coming up tonight. The NBA Play In Tournament seems 26 00:01:29,400 --> 00:01:32,640 Speaker 1: to be a success. The Lakers Warriors game was a classic. 27 00:01:33,040 --> 00:01:36,000 Speaker 1: Rest of the games not so much. Congrats to the Wizards. 28 00:01:36,319 --> 00:01:39,000 Speaker 1: The Wizards have moved on as they blew by the 29 00:01:39,080 --> 00:01:48,800 Speaker 1: pesky Pacers last night. Everybody feels good for Russell Westbrook. Yeay, yeah, 30 00:01:48,840 --> 00:01:52,440 Speaker 1: you know. The games were on TV, and I guess 31 00:01:52,480 --> 00:01:55,000 Speaker 1: the league has to be happy here. Not every year 32 00:01:55,040 --> 00:01:57,840 Speaker 1: you're gonna have Steph versus Lebron for a play in game. 33 00:01:57,840 --> 00:02:00,440 Speaker 1: And I think we're taking the results where we go. Man. 34 00:02:00,560 --> 00:02:04,600 Speaker 1: Play in tournament is awesome. Okay. Did you watch the 35 00:02:04,640 --> 00:02:08,400 Speaker 1: Wizards last night against the Pacers? Didn't think so? Did 36 00:02:08,400 --> 00:02:13,600 Speaker 1: you watch Spurs Grizzlies? Didn't think so? Well? Are you 37 00:02:13,600 --> 00:02:17,040 Speaker 1: going to watch the Steph Curry Warriors against the Grizzlies tonight? 38 00:02:17,080 --> 00:02:20,080 Speaker 1: And nothing against Memphis. I mean, that's a nice, little, 39 00:02:20,080 --> 00:02:23,320 Speaker 1: plucky team. Steph Curry is up there is the most 40 00:02:23,360 --> 00:02:26,880 Speaker 1: watchable player right now. But if you can get him 41 00:02:26,919 --> 00:02:29,440 Speaker 1: into the playoffs, then great. You got to be careful though, 42 00:02:29,720 --> 00:02:32,160 Speaker 1: because you can't be saying those things because it can 43 00:02:32,240 --> 00:02:35,080 Speaker 1: cost you twenty five thousand dollars. You want to hear her, 44 00:02:35,160 --> 00:02:40,240 Speaker 1: twenty five thousand dollars sounds like. Nate McMillan is the 45 00:02:40,240 --> 00:02:42,880 Speaker 1: Atlanta Hawks head coach, and he had this to say 46 00:02:42,919 --> 00:02:45,720 Speaker 1: about his first round opponent, the New York Knicks. The 47 00:02:45,800 --> 00:02:49,640 Speaker 1: league wants this, they need this. It's a big market 48 00:02:50,080 --> 00:02:53,000 Speaker 1: for the league, and New York has been out of 49 00:02:53,040 --> 00:02:56,120 Speaker 1: the playoffs for a number of years, and you know, 50 00:02:56,200 --> 00:02:59,120 Speaker 1: this is a team that our league, you know, they 51 00:02:59,160 --> 00:03:02,240 Speaker 1: want to see. You know, there's a huge fan base. 52 00:03:02,320 --> 00:03:05,440 Speaker 1: They want to see New York in the playoffs. You know, 53 00:03:05,480 --> 00:03:09,040 Speaker 1: they want to see the Lakers in the playoffs. You know, 54 00:03:09,160 --> 00:03:13,160 Speaker 1: teams like that, Boston Celtics. They want to see these 55 00:03:13,160 --> 00:03:16,919 Speaker 1: teams in the playoffs. And I and I put New 56 00:03:17,000 --> 00:03:21,320 Speaker 1: York in that category that the league wants to see it. 57 00:03:21,400 --> 00:03:25,080 Speaker 1: Everybody wants to see this, you know, even to the 58 00:03:25,120 --> 00:03:28,840 Speaker 1: fact that you know our game was moved to Sunday. 59 00:03:29,320 --> 00:03:33,760 Speaker 1: That cost Nate McMillian twenty five thousand dollars. What he 60 00:03:33,800 --> 00:03:39,600 Speaker 1: said was true, that's one hundred percent true. But I 61 00:03:40,600 --> 00:03:43,200 Speaker 1: did it sound like he was accusatory to say that 62 00:03:43,240 --> 00:03:45,000 Speaker 1: they're going to do whatever they can do to get 63 00:03:45,000 --> 00:03:48,320 Speaker 1: the Knicks in the postseason or the Celtics in the postseason. Now, 64 00:03:49,240 --> 00:03:51,480 Speaker 1: do I think the league try to do everything they 65 00:03:51,480 --> 00:03:54,640 Speaker 1: could to get Zion Williamson in the postseason last year? Yes? 66 00:03:55,400 --> 00:04:00,440 Speaker 1: I do. That's twenty five thousand dollars right there. But 67 00:04:00,560 --> 00:04:04,400 Speaker 1: it's true what he said. Yes, don he didn't say, 68 00:04:04,400 --> 00:04:06,840 Speaker 1: look at some of the calls in recent games, the tape, 69 00:04:07,000 --> 00:04:09,480 Speaker 1: how something was manipulated to make sure the Knicks got 70 00:04:09,480 --> 00:04:10,920 Speaker 1: one of the seeds. I don't. I don't get it. 71 00:04:11,000 --> 00:04:13,119 Speaker 1: What would that have cost him if you had said, yeah, 72 00:04:13,160 --> 00:04:16,320 Speaker 1: they're gonna get all the calls here? But that costs 73 00:04:16,400 --> 00:04:21,280 Speaker 1: Nate McMillan twenty five thousand dollars, Age seven seven three 74 00:04:21,360 --> 00:04:23,800 Speaker 1: d P show email address dpit dan Patrick dot com, 75 00:04:23,800 --> 00:04:27,039 Speaker 1: Twitter handle a DP show. I cannot be fined twenty 76 00:04:27,080 --> 00:04:30,960 Speaker 1: five thousand dollars.

Pass haird jab's commissioner, Yes, Seaton by 80 00:04:44,920 --> 00:04:47,679 Speaker 1: finding Nate McMillan for saying that. Are they also saying 81 00:04:47,720 --> 00:04:51,560 Speaker 1: then that they don't want the Knicks in the Celtics 82 00:04:51,600 --> 00:04:55,720 Speaker 1: in the playoffs. They do want them in, You're just 83 00:04:55,760 --> 00:04:57,800 Speaker 1: not allowed to say that they want them and they 84 00:04:57,880 --> 00:05:00,920 Speaker 1: only want small market teams in the playoffs. I think 85 00:05:00,960 --> 00:05:03,240 Speaker 1: that's where your wife goes, Hey, how do I look 86 00:05:03,240 --> 00:05:08,360 Speaker 1: in this dress? Mmm? Oh, you look great? Because if 87 00:05:08,440 --> 00:05:11,200 Speaker 1: you give your honest opinion, then that's going to cost 88 00:05:11,240 --> 00:05:14,840 Speaker 1: you the equivalent of twenty five thousand dollars.

If she's If your wife asked 97 00:05:35,800 --> 00:05:37,920 Speaker 1: how do I look, you should have already told her 98 00:05:38,360 --> 00:05:41,240 Speaker 1: that she great, Yeah, that's true. Why I should have asked? Yeah, 99 00:05:41,279 --> 00:05:43,000 Speaker 1: why did I even have to ask? I'd have been 100 00:05:43,040 --> 00:05:45,720 Speaker 1: down that road before, should have already said. And then 101 00:05:45,760 --> 00:05:49,039 Speaker 1: I said to her, well, how do I look like? 102 00:05:49,200 --> 00:05:53,120 Speaker 1: That's a two way street? I look, I'm very insecure 103 00:05:53,240 --> 00:05:59,280 Speaker 1: talking hairdo Come on? How do I look? Yeah? Okay, 104 00:06:00,160 --> 00:06:04,440 Speaker 1: how does it feel? Yea? The NBA fines for coaching. 105 00:06:04,839 --> 00:06:06,640 Speaker 1: It's a dumbest thing in sports that I know. We 106 00:06:06,680 --> 00:06:08,640 Speaker 1: talked about all the time. But Steve Kerr getting fined 107 00:06:08,680 --> 00:06:11,120 Speaker 1: for saying he would sign Lebron for a million dollars 108 00:06:11,120 --> 00:06:13,600 Speaker 1: a year on our show is the dumbest thing. Like 109 00:06:13,800 --> 00:06:16,160 Speaker 1: is the NBA like they have no functioning brain when 110 00:06:16,200 --> 00:06:17,760 Speaker 1: it comes to these things. I think they just have 111 00:06:17,920 --> 00:06:21,760 Speaker 1: to do it to protect themselves because if somebody says, well, 112 00:06:21,839 --> 00:06:23,919 Speaker 1: you didn't find Steve Kerr when he said he would 113 00:06:23,920 --> 00:06:29,680 Speaker 1: give Lebron the mid level exception or something exemption, you 114 00:06:29,760 --> 00:06:32,880 Speaker 1: just want to make sure you just you treat everybody 115 00:06:32,920 --> 00:06:36,440 Speaker 1: the same way. But you and Steve were laughing. I 116 00:06:36,560 --> 00:06:39,479 Speaker 1: laughed longer than Steve did because it cost him. He 117 00:06:39,520 --> 00:06:42,279 Speaker 1: got fined by the league, and it was funny. Because 118 00:06:42,279 --> 00:06:45,600 Speaker 1: I said, hey, you got any money to sign Lebron? Yeah, 119 00:06:45,640 --> 00:06:49,880 Speaker 1: you know, the mid level exception or whatever it was, yes, point, 120 00:06:50,480 --> 00:06:52,840 Speaker 1: but the NBA put more of a focus on their 121 00:06:52,880 --> 00:06:55,000 Speaker 1: desire for the Lakers than the Knicks to be in 122 00:06:55,040 --> 00:06:57,320 Speaker 1: the playoffs. By finding Nate Mabella, they would have just 123 00:06:57,360 --> 00:06:58,920 Speaker 1: ignored it. We wouldn't be talking about it to day. 124 00:07:00,040 --> 00:07:02,560 Speaker 1: This program brought to you by M drive, the everyday 125 00:07:02,640 --> 00:07:07,760 Speaker 1: supplement that I take help keep me long, long whoa whoa, 126 00:07:08,320 --> 00:07:14,200 Speaker 1: keeps me strong, lean, energized.

We're so proud of our pole 134 00:07:35,680 --> 00:07:37,720 Speaker 1: options on this cyberk glass, there's no way they're going 135 00:07:37,800 --> 00:07:41,840 Speaker 1: to actually, shouldn't have gone from that too? Pole Yeah yeah, yeah, okay, 136 00:07:42,120 --> 00:07:45,520 Speaker 1: uh verse a serious one that is a less serious 137 00:07:45,520 --> 00:07:48,840 Speaker 1: one which NBA player has the most pressure on him 138 00:07:48,880 --> 00:07:51,360 Speaker 1: to do well in this playoffs. We came up with 139 00:07:51,400 --> 00:07:58,640 Speaker 1: some choices, Uh, Luca don Chick, technical book, Joel embiid Nicola, 140 00:07:58,880 --> 00:08:03,520 Speaker 1: Oh god, I can't even say joke. Is there James Harden? 141 00:08:04,360 --> 00:08:07,600 Speaker 1: And that is Lebron belong on there? Does Kyrie Irving 142 00:08:07,640 --> 00:08:10,240 Speaker 1: belong on there? And does Dame Lillard belong there? Who's 143 00:08:10,280 --> 00:08:12,960 Speaker 1: got the most pressure? I think Jannis has a ton 144 00:08:12,960 --> 00:08:16,120 Speaker 1: of pressure. I think Paul George should be on there. 145 00:08:20,080 --> 00:08:22,680 Speaker 1: He's not gonna win the poll, but he he should 146 00:08:22,680 --> 00:08:25,640 Speaker 1: be on there because we're still waiting. I guess if 147 00:08:25,640 --> 00:08:30,720 Speaker 1: you're gonna pick out a Nets player, Harden wanted out 148 00:08:30,760 --> 00:08:37,960 Speaker 1: out of Houston, Kyrie has been in and out, Durant 149 00:08:37,960 --> 00:08:43,360 Speaker 1: coming back from the injury. Durant's got rings, Kyrie's got one. 150 00:08:44,080 --> 00:08:51,680 Speaker 1: I guess Harden. I guess since he wanted out. Yannis 151 00:08:51,840 --> 00:08:55,920 Speaker 1: is facing some pressure there, but he you know, he 152 00:08:55,960 --> 00:08:58,480 Speaker 1: can only do so much because he's probably gonna average 153 00:08:58,520 --> 00:09:01,800 Speaker 1: forty points a game against the Nets when they when 154 00:09:01,840 --> 00:09:03,600 Speaker 1: they face the Nets, if they face the Nets, they 155 00:09:03,640 --> 00:09:06,360 Speaker 1: should say, but you know, is that going to be enough? 156 00:09:09,080 --> 00:09:10,880 Speaker 1: And then you wonder, you know, what did he learn 157 00:09:11,000 --> 00:09:13,679 Speaker 1: what did that team learn from last year in the postseason, 158 00:09:13,840 --> 00:09:15,800 Speaker 1: and then how do you apply that. A lot of 159 00:09:15,800 --> 00:09:19,360 Speaker 1: what happens is you take it. It's kind of an 160 00:09:19,440 --> 00:09:24,320 Speaker 1: accumulation here of two years ago or last year, and 161 00:09:24,360 --> 00:09:28,480 Speaker 1: then you build on your playoff failures. You you you 162 00:09:28,640 --> 00:09:31,520 Speaker 1: know it's open for everybody to see. Now, how do 163 00:09:31,559 --> 00:09:34,760 Speaker 1: you prevent that from happening. It's happened to all these 164 00:09:34,800 --> 00:09:37,520 Speaker 1: great teams that they take these steps where you all 165 00:09:37,559 --> 00:09:41,120 Speaker 1: of a sudden go, hey, we're facing the Celtics. We 166 00:09:41,200 --> 00:09:44,240 Speaker 1: lost this year facing the Celtics. We lost. That year 167 00:09:44,320 --> 00:09:47,720 Speaker 1: facing the Celtics, we got by the Celtics. The Bulls 168 00:09:48,080 --> 00:09:51,439 Speaker 1: facing the Pistons we lost facing the Pistons, we lost. 169 00:09:51,760 --> 00:09:53,840 Speaker 1: We got by the Pistons. And then once you get 170 00:09:53,880 --> 00:09:56,480 Speaker 1: past that, then you never look back. Most of these 171 00:09:56,480 --> 00:10:00,000 Speaker 1: teams that figure it out never look back. And maybe 172 00:10:00,080 --> 00:10:02,400 Speaker 1: you have that, maybe you have a situation where Milwaukee 173 00:10:02,440 --> 00:10:06,280 Speaker 1: figures this out. But I do think there's a lot 174 00:10:06,280 --> 00:10:08,200 Speaker 1: of pressure on the Greek Free Yeah. Mcleven I got 175 00:10:08,200 --> 00:10:10,120 Speaker 1: another one in the Paul George Vane. How about Ben 176 00:10:10,120 --> 00:10:16,000 Speaker 1: Simmons with the Sixers? No, because I feel like if 177 00:10:16,040 --> 00:10:18,840 Speaker 1: they lose, people are gonna blame Simmons, who's a max player, 178 00:10:18,880 --> 00:10:21,439 Speaker 1: and it, you know, gets a lot of love my 179 00:10:21,679 --> 00:10:25,120 Speaker 1: song where Kenny Smith said on TNT that Ben Simmons 180 00:10:25,600 --> 00:10:27,400 Speaker 1: is a you know, great defender. He's one of the 181 00:10:27,400 --> 00:10:30,920 Speaker 1: top three defensive players of the year according to the 182 00:10:31,200 --> 00:10:36,160 Speaker 1: final candidates. But he can't guard these quick guards. He's 183 00:10:36,200 --> 00:10:39,520 Speaker 1: a six eleven guard who can't guard. Kind of hard 184 00:10:39,559 --> 00:10:42,640 Speaker 1: to say. Wow, he's one of the top defenders in 185 00:10:42,640 --> 00:10:47,080 Speaker 1: the game. He's great, he's a help defender and he 186 00:10:47,200 --> 00:10:50,280 Speaker 1: can guard a lot of players, but he can't guard 187 00:10:50,360 --> 00:10:53,880 Speaker 1: Russell Westbrook or Bradley Beale. And that's what Kenny Smith 188 00:10:53,960 --> 00:10:57,120 Speaker 1: is saying. Yeah, point, does it feel like Ben Simmons 189 00:10:57,160 --> 00:10:59,880 Speaker 1: has settled into what he is? He is a second 190 00:11:00,160 --> 00:11:03,240 Speaker 1: tier not a lower tier, but a second tier basketball player. 191 00:11:03,280 --> 00:11:05,360 Speaker 1: Where like when you talk about the best players in 192 00:11:05,400 --> 00:11:08,000 Speaker 1: the game, he's not in that discussion. He's in the 193 00:11:08,160 --> 00:11:11,240 Speaker 1: next tier. Like I don't even know who I want 194 00:11:11,240 --> 00:11:13,920 Speaker 1: to put in there, but like Damarta Rosen doesn't get 195 00:11:13,960 --> 00:11:16,000 Speaker 1: talked about as a top ten NBA player, but he's 196 00:11:16,080 --> 00:11:18,760 Speaker 1: very good. Yeah, and but he doesn't seem like the 197 00:11:18,800 --> 00:11:21,679 Speaker 1: guy when who are the best guys? I think Ben 198 00:11:21,720 --> 00:11:24,240 Speaker 1: Simmons is what he's going to be. What did Simmons 199 00:11:24,320 --> 00:11:28,280 Speaker 1: had average this year? Fourteen points per game, seven rebounds, 200 00:11:28,440 --> 00:11:30,920 Speaker 1: seven assists, pretty much the same as every other year. 201 00:11:30,960 --> 00:11:33,920 Speaker 1: He's actually down in something like those are just nice 202 00:11:33,960 --> 00:11:39,400 Speaker 1: statistics and you could say, well, he's well rounded, um 203 00:11:40,400 --> 00:11:43,719 Speaker 1: and he's a good defender, but but he's not an 204 00:11:43,720 --> 00:11:47,080 Speaker 1: A player. He's in the B category. Yeah, the club 205 00:11:47,160 --> 00:11:50,160 Speaker 1: and EMBIID is sort of taken off, and embi statistically 206 00:11:50,200 --> 00:11:54,040 Speaker 1: he's really been amazing. Yeah, the Wizards rolled over the 207 00:11:54,080 --> 00:11:57,320 Speaker 1: Pacers last night. Your Kitch, Curry and EMBIID are the 208 00:11:57,400 --> 00:12:00,680 Speaker 1: top three candidates for MVP. It's gonna be the Joker 209 00:12:00,679 --> 00:12:03,680 Speaker 1: and probably will be a landslide victory for him. I 210 00:12:03,720 --> 00:12:08,200 Speaker 1: think Steph has made a a late surge here and 211 00:12:08,280 --> 00:12:12,160 Speaker 1: a lot of voters will probably probably say, you know what, 212 00:12:12,640 --> 00:12:15,480 Speaker 1: Joker's gonna win, I'm going to vote for Steph Curry. 213 00:12:15,600 --> 00:12:18,720 Speaker 1: You might have some of that, you know, late at 214 00:12:18,720 --> 00:12:21,760 Speaker 1: the ballot box eleventh hour where you start to look 215 00:12:21,800 --> 00:12:24,720 Speaker 1: at what's Steph Curry was able to do. EMBIID was 216 00:12:24,800 --> 00:12:27,960 Speaker 1: great early, but if you're gonna miss twenty games, then 217 00:12:28,240 --> 00:12:31,319 Speaker 1: you're gonna get You're gonna get banged for that, and 218 00:12:31,440 --> 00:12:34,720 Speaker 1: Mbiad will probably win an MVP one of these years, 219 00:12:34,800 --> 00:12:38,000 Speaker 1: as talented as he is, but it's it's the Jokers. 220 00:12:38,000 --> 00:12:41,080 Speaker 1: It's the Joker's year. Yeah, what happens if Joker wins 221 00:12:41,160 --> 00:12:43,680 Speaker 1: and they lose their first round series? Is it kind of? 222 00:12:44,040 --> 00:12:45,960 Speaker 1: Is it almost unfair? How much heat will come down 223 00:12:46,000 --> 00:12:49,920 Speaker 1: on him for that? Well, it'll it'll you'll see the 224 00:12:49,960 --> 00:12:53,920 Speaker 1: results next year if if the Joker and Denver losing 225 00:12:54,000 --> 00:12:58,680 Speaker 1: the opening round, then the next year then they'll go, well, MVP, 226 00:12:58,920 --> 00:13:01,760 Speaker 1: but his team they in the opening round. I think 227 00:13:01,760 --> 00:13:04,120 Speaker 1: the voters did that to the Greek Freak this year 228 00:13:04,200 --> 00:13:06,880 Speaker 1: because of the two previous years, Hey, back to back, 229 00:13:06,920 --> 00:13:09,360 Speaker 1: he was great, but they didn't even get to the 230 00:13:09,360 --> 00:13:12,640 Speaker 1: Eastern Conference finals. And I think that they'll you'll be 231 00:13:12,679 --> 00:13:16,200 Speaker 1: held accountable for that. Whether that's fair or not, but 232 00:13:16,240 --> 00:13:19,880 Speaker 1: I think that that's going to happen. Let's see anything 233 00:13:19,880 --> 00:13:22,800 Speaker 1: else I need to mention here up front? Yeah, but 234 00:13:23,080 --> 00:13:25,640 Speaker 1: the pole we really love here? Would you rather win? 235 00:13:26,000 --> 00:13:27,880 Speaker 1: Should I save this pol or should I give it down? 236 00:13:27,960 --> 00:13:32,200 Speaker 1: It's save worthy, it's save worthy, save worthy. It's a 237 00:13:32,240 --> 00:13:36,880 Speaker 1: golf poll, a golf Okay, I know what we're gonna 238 00:13:36,880 --> 00:13:40,520 Speaker 1: do here? Yeah, you probably we've done it. I know 239 00:13:40,559 --> 00:13:43,680 Speaker 1: what's going to happen here, the annual Would you rather win? 240 00:13:44,280 --> 00:13:48,400 Speaker 1: Would you rather win two PGA Championships or one Masters? 241 00:13:48,440 --> 00:13:52,840 Speaker 1: That's exactly, That's exactly, okay, verbatim. I think it started 242 00:13:52,880 --> 00:13:56,240 Speaker 1: at four pay Yeah, I'm thinking I thought it was 243 00:13:56,240 --> 00:13:58,959 Speaker 1: gonna be three, Like, would you rather win three PGA 244 00:13:59,080 --> 00:14:02,840 Speaker 1: Championships or one Masters? And I love to do that? 245 00:14:03,120 --> 00:14:07,400 Speaker 1: Andrews like, guys, how many people have even won four majors? 246 00:14:07,520 --> 00:14:10,280 Speaker 1: Like what is wrong with you? Yeah? I was like 247 00:14:10,360 --> 00:14:14,520 Speaker 1: four four PGAs, but then then they kind of convinced 248 00:14:14,559 --> 00:14:16,720 Speaker 1: me the green jacket's so cool that I'm actually a 249 00:14:16,840 --> 00:14:24,880 Speaker 1: leading master though. Two PGA Championships or one Masters, I 250 00:14:25,000 --> 00:14:31,680 Speaker 1: take one Masters. Now, if you said two PGA championships 251 00:14:31,760 --> 00:14:37,320 Speaker 1: or one British Open, the Open Championship is what they 252 00:14:37,360 --> 00:14:41,560 Speaker 1: call it. What if it was two PGAs, a US 253 00:14:41,640 --> 00:14:46,680 Speaker 1: Open or a Master's, I would take the US Open 254 00:14:47,640 --> 00:14:50,640 Speaker 1: and the two the masters, not over the masters. Now 255 00:14:50,680 --> 00:14:53,640 Speaker 1: you had you get two PGAs and a US Open, 256 00:14:54,360 --> 00:14:58,760 Speaker 1: four a masters, I would take the I'd take three majors, yeah, 257 00:14:58,760 --> 00:15:01,000 Speaker 1: I would, I would take three.

He was on the popular show Get 283 00:16:40,880 --> 00:16:43,400 Speaker 1: Up the Get Ups with Mike Greenberg, and I think 284 00:16:43,400 --> 00:16:47,000 Speaker 1: he was leaning towards if Lebron wins another title this year, 285 00:16:47,560 --> 00:16:50,360 Speaker 1: it might put him over the top. With Michael Jordan, Yes, 286 00:16:50,440 --> 00:16:54,520 Speaker 1: we do give credit to everybody. There's no sources close 287 00:16:54,600 --> 00:16:57,520 Speaker 1: or I heard that's Greeney had him on good get 288 00:16:57,560 --> 00:17:00,120 Speaker 1: by him, good question.

I got the day all well, 336 00:19:32,000 --> 00:19:35,400 Speaker 1: now that you have a golf swing here, you're looking good. 337 00:19:36,320 --> 00:19:39,760 Speaker 1: I'm getting better, brother, getting better. Shout out to my 338 00:19:39,840 --> 00:19:42,440 Speaker 1: coach stan La. I worked hard and I want some more. 339 00:19:42,560 --> 00:19:46,399 Speaker 1: You can, you know I won't you. I look, I 340 00:19:46,560 --> 00:19:49,560 Speaker 1: remind people, I'm one of the last people who saw 341 00:19:49,640 --> 00:19:53,120 Speaker 1: you play well, and that was in Dayton, Ohio when 342 00:19:53,160 --> 00:19:57,400 Speaker 1: you shot a seventy nine and you played well, and 343 00:19:57,440 --> 00:20:02,600 Speaker 1: you should have retired there or stopped taking lessons, you 344 00:20:02,720 --> 00:20:05,080 Speaker 1: know what. I'm just glad to be out playing, having 345 00:20:05,160 --> 00:20:08,879 Speaker 1: fun again, smoking me a couple of guards, drinking a 346 00:20:08,880 --> 00:20:11,600 Speaker 1: little bit. Hey, that's not There's only two things old 347 00:20:11,640 --> 00:20:14,800 Speaker 1: people can do, golf and fish, and I love both 348 00:20:14,880 --> 00:20:17,040 Speaker 1: of them. All right. I got a question for you. 349 00:20:17,600 --> 00:20:22,560 Speaker 1: I'll give you two PGA championships or one Masters. What 350 00:20:22,640 --> 00:20:26,719 Speaker 1: would you rather have? Well, I think it'd probably be 351 00:20:26,760 --> 00:20:31,720 Speaker 1: the Masters, because you know, it's just that's you know, 352 00:20:31,800 --> 00:20:34,800 Speaker 1: unless you're promoverseas what they think the Open Championship is 353 00:20:34,840 --> 00:20:39,080 Speaker 1: the greatest thing ever. I think winning the Masters, with 354 00:20:39,160 --> 00:20:42,480 Speaker 1: the tradition in history, I think that I think that 355 00:20:42,520 --> 00:20:47,480 Speaker 1: would be it. How about three PGA championships or one Masters? 356 00:20:48,560 --> 00:20:50,639 Speaker 1: Who I think three three kind of takes it to 357 00:20:50,640 --> 00:20:52,960 Speaker 1: a whole other level. So I'd go with three of those. 358 00:20:53,800 --> 00:20:58,480 Speaker 1: But listen, winning one Masters that's historical, Two is different, 359 00:20:58,520 --> 00:21:01,400 Speaker 1: but three I think I go with three. PTA's How 360 00:21:01,440 --> 00:21:10,000 Speaker 1: about an NBA Championship or the Masters? Well, I think 361 00:21:10,080 --> 00:21:13,560 Speaker 1: the Masters personally, I mean, because hey, they give out 362 00:21:13,600 --> 00:21:17,280 Speaker 1: the NBA Championship every year, and I know they do 363 00:21:17,320 --> 00:21:20,760 Speaker 1: the Masters every year, but like nobody knows who won 364 00:21:20,840 --> 00:21:24,560 Speaker 1: the championship five years ago in the NBA. But you know, 365 00:21:25,000 --> 00:21:27,439 Speaker 1: to be able to host, I mean, think about that. 366 00:21:27,520 --> 00:21:30,080 Speaker 1: I think that's such a great tradition. You know, you 367 00:21:30,359 --> 00:21:33,639 Speaker 1: talk about places you want to be. Can you imagine 368 00:21:33,760 --> 00:21:37,080 Speaker 1: being at the Master's dinner on Tuesday night with only 369 00:21:37,119 --> 00:21:39,080 Speaker 1: guys who won the Master and you get to pick 370 00:21:39,080 --> 00:21:42,280 Speaker 1: out the menu. That would be one of the coolest 371 00:21:42,440 --> 00:21:45,840 Speaker 1: things ever, Dan, I mean, I mean think about that. 372 00:21:46,280 --> 00:21:49,480 Speaker 1: You get to pick out the menu, and there's probably 373 00:21:49,800 --> 00:21:53,680 Speaker 1: I don't even know how many living Master's champions there are, 374 00:21:54,240 --> 00:22:02,119 Speaker 1: it can't be more than thirty. What would your menu be? Uh, 375 00:22:03,240 --> 00:22:13,040 Speaker 1: probably fried chicken, hamhocks, neck bones, chitlanbs, some type of 376 00:22:13,119 --> 00:22:19,280 Speaker 1: pecan pecan pie, some collar greens. I'd go all. I mean, 377 00:22:19,320 --> 00:22:21,200 Speaker 1: you know they ain't had no chillers or hamhocks and 378 00:22:21,280 --> 00:22:25,320 Speaker 1: neckballs there. I might even throw some figures figure beats 379 00:22:25,320 --> 00:22:28,720 Speaker 1: in there. They're give them a little sold when you 380 00:22:28,760 --> 00:22:31,840 Speaker 1: go back to Alabama, you got a restaurant or go 381 00:22:31,920 --> 00:22:37,080 Speaker 1: to restaurants. I'll go to Flemings every night when I'm 382 00:22:37,080 --> 00:22:38,960 Speaker 1: in Alabama because I'm in a small town and we 383 00:22:39,000 --> 00:22:42,399 Speaker 1: don't have any restaurants, so I have to drive to Birmingham. 384 00:22:42,520 --> 00:22:46,280 Speaker 1: My hometown Leads. We don't have any restaurants, so we 385 00:22:46,440 --> 00:22:48,800 Speaker 1: I drive. I spent every night when I'm in Alabama, 386 00:22:48,800 --> 00:22:51,359 Speaker 1: I go to Flemings. Uh, they just take good care 387 00:22:51,359 --> 00:22:53,199 Speaker 1: of me. Then I take a couple of my homeboys 388 00:22:53,480 --> 00:22:55,679 Speaker 1: and we have a great night. I saw that you 389 00:22:56,000 --> 00:22:59,320 Speaker 1: gave back to your school. You were giving out a 390 00:22:59,400 --> 00:23:05,000 Speaker 1: thousand dollars to employees at your high school. Well, you know, Dan, 391 00:23:05,040 --> 00:23:08,240 Speaker 1: it's been a tough year. It's been a tough year 392 00:23:08,280 --> 00:23:12,960 Speaker 1: in the world. So shout out to anybody who lost 393 00:23:12,960 --> 00:23:16,280 Speaker 1: somebody to COVID or lost their job, you know. And 394 00:23:16,359 --> 00:23:19,080 Speaker 1: you know, I love teachers. I admire them, I respect them, 395 00:23:19,359 --> 00:23:21,080 Speaker 1: and I want to do something nice for the teachers 396 00:23:21,080 --> 00:23:23,800 Speaker 1: in my hometown. And I thought it'd be nice again 397 00:23:23,800 --> 00:23:25,840 Speaker 1: them a little year in bonus. I mean because I 398 00:23:25,840 --> 00:23:30,040 Speaker 1: know it's been crazy. I couldn't imagine. Hey, it's so funny. 399 00:23:30,240 --> 00:23:33,040 Speaker 1: I talked to all my friends who've got kids. They 400 00:23:33,119 --> 00:23:36,040 Speaker 1: found out doing this COVID situation when their kids at home, 401 00:23:36,119 --> 00:23:42,400 Speaker 1: their kids are painting the airs. Hey, they're like, They're like, yo, man, 402 00:23:43,000 --> 00:23:45,960 Speaker 1: my kids are crazy having them at the house all day. 403 00:23:46,000 --> 00:23:48,760 Speaker 1: I'm never gonna say anything bad about teachers in my life. 404 00:23:48,760 --> 00:23:50,919 Speaker 1: So I want to give a shout out to all 405 00:23:50,960 --> 00:23:53,600 Speaker 1: the teachers out the because everybody realized during the pandemic, 406 00:23:54,240 --> 00:23:58,480 Speaker 1: my kids crazy as hell. What were you like if 407 00:23:58,520 --> 00:24:00,880 Speaker 1: I talk to one of your great teachers, what would 408 00:24:00,920 --> 00:24:07,560 Speaker 1: they have said about you? Oh? I didn't start going 409 00:24:07,640 --> 00:24:12,200 Speaker 1: crazy until probably my second or third year in the NBA, 410 00:24:12,320 --> 00:24:15,280 Speaker 1: when I first got into this whole craziness. I was 411 00:24:15,320 --> 00:24:18,280 Speaker 1: a really quiet shot kid back in high school. But 412 00:24:18,480 --> 00:24:21,000 Speaker 1: you know, once you get into line light, man, it's 413 00:24:21,000 --> 00:24:23,600 Speaker 1: a different animal. And then, first of all, I got 414 00:24:23,680 --> 00:24:27,760 Speaker 1: an a line light in Philadelphia. I tell people, there's 415 00:24:27,840 --> 00:24:31,000 Speaker 1: nothing can there's there's nothing that can prepare you for 416 00:24:31,119 --> 00:24:34,240 Speaker 1: being famous. There's nothing in the world. And then to 417 00:24:34,320 --> 00:24:38,560 Speaker 1: do it in Philadelphia, it's a whole other animal. So, uh, 418 00:24:39,200 --> 00:24:41,159 Speaker 1: I was a good kid. I had great friends and 419 00:24:41,240 --> 00:24:44,520 Speaker 1: great teachers, Miss Church, Miss Hill, Miss Robinson, love y'all. 420 00:24:44,520 --> 00:24:47,199 Speaker 1: Miss Robinson passed away from missus Churk and Miss Hill 421 00:24:47,280 --> 00:24:52,000 Speaker 1: were amazing. Uh. My coaches Wallace Hunnicutt and Billy Copeland 422 00:24:52,040 --> 00:24:55,840 Speaker 1: were amazing. You know, Dan, I always tell people, you know, 423 00:24:55,880 --> 00:24:58,199 Speaker 1: I watched the news all the time. You see how 424 00:24:58,280 --> 00:25:01,920 Speaker 1: crazy it is and some of these big cities going 425 00:25:02,160 --> 00:25:05,240 Speaker 1: to going up in a small town with a couple 426 00:25:05,280 --> 00:25:07,760 Speaker 1: of people. Man, I think, what's a really great thing 427 00:25:07,880 --> 00:25:09,879 Speaker 1: for me because I didn't know what I was missing, 428 00:25:10,160 --> 00:25:11,920 Speaker 1: but I didn't have to worry about all that crime 429 00:25:11,960 --> 00:25:14,080 Speaker 1: and all this craziness is going around in the country 430 00:25:14,160 --> 00:25:17,200 Speaker 1: that you see every day on television. But you said 431 00:25:17,280 --> 00:25:20,439 Speaker 1: your second year you had the spotlight on you. Like, 432 00:25:21,320 --> 00:25:25,480 Speaker 1: how goofy did it get for you? It's something you 433 00:25:25,480 --> 00:25:29,840 Speaker 1: can't even explain. You know, microphones in your face every day, 434 00:25:30,680 --> 00:25:33,439 Speaker 1: guys asking you questions that you know I'm trying. Are 435 00:25:33,440 --> 00:25:35,840 Speaker 1: you trying to learn? But are you talking about your 436 00:25:35,880 --> 00:25:39,320 Speaker 1: social life? Like when you went out and you know 437 00:25:39,400 --> 00:25:43,560 Speaker 1: that you were you were exposed to a big city. Yeah, 438 00:25:43,560 --> 00:25:46,040 Speaker 1: and it was crazy. I tell you the story. Then, 439 00:25:46,720 --> 00:25:50,040 Speaker 1: I think at the beginning of my third year, I 440 00:25:50,119 --> 00:25:53,800 Speaker 1: became a star and it was overwhelming. And this is 441 00:25:53,840 --> 00:25:56,320 Speaker 1: how stupid I was. Had I got a guy, a 442 00:25:56,359 --> 00:25:58,400 Speaker 1: bunch of million my guys together. I see you, man, 443 00:25:58,880 --> 00:26:00,800 Speaker 1: it's hard for people walking up to you all the 444 00:26:00,840 --> 00:26:04,520 Speaker 1: time or autographs, take pitches. Let's go somewhere so I 445 00:26:04,560 --> 00:26:07,159 Speaker 1: can get away and we can just be boys. And 446 00:26:07,880 --> 00:26:09,879 Speaker 1: I've never been out of the country at that point, 447 00:26:10,320 --> 00:26:12,760 Speaker 1: so I said, hey, let's go to Hawaii for a week. 448 00:26:13,160 --> 00:26:16,840 Speaker 1: Nobody'll know me in Hawaii, I'll get I'll get like 449 00:26:17,640 --> 00:26:21,320 Speaker 1: nobody gonna know me. Man. That's how crazy it was, 450 00:26:21,320 --> 00:26:23,600 Speaker 1: because like when people coming up people on autographs and 451 00:26:23,640 --> 00:26:26,359 Speaker 1: pitches all the time. When it first happened, just a 452 00:26:26,359 --> 00:26:28,800 Speaker 1: little over women. But I took like four of my 453 00:26:28,840 --> 00:26:31,080 Speaker 1: friends we went to Hawaii. It's like, yeah, nobody's gonna 454 00:26:31,119 --> 00:26:34,760 Speaker 1: know me and hawire and that was my first like, 455 00:26:34,880 --> 00:26:37,760 Speaker 1: oh yeah, I've been in the limelight. It's totally different. 456 00:26:38,119 --> 00:26:41,479 Speaker 1: It's totally different than anything I'm ever gonna experience. But 457 00:26:41,520 --> 00:26:44,439 Speaker 1: I like, oh man, this is gonna be weird. They 458 00:26:44,480 --> 00:26:46,880 Speaker 1: know me in Hawaii. It's crazy. Yeah, But imagine if 459 00:26:46,880 --> 00:26:50,280 Speaker 1: you're Michael Jordan or Tiger Woods, and you know, or 460 00:26:50,520 --> 00:26:53,520 Speaker 1: a big time actor or a musician and you're traveling 461 00:26:53,880 --> 00:26:57,440 Speaker 1: like you can't go anywhere. Well, you know what's interesting, 462 00:26:57,720 --> 00:27:01,440 Speaker 1: I've been close with Michael and Tiger. Point Out of 463 00:27:01,480 --> 00:27:03,960 Speaker 1: all the celebrities I've ever met in my life and 464 00:27:04,040 --> 00:27:08,919 Speaker 1: been around, Michael and Tiger are the only two that 465 00:27:09,040 --> 00:27:13,160 Speaker 1: people absolutely lose their mind when they're around. Like, and 466 00:27:13,000 --> 00:27:16,439 Speaker 1: I listen, I've been around everybody, damn to a certain degree, 467 00:27:16,880 --> 00:27:20,240 Speaker 1: but I will say this, Michael Jordan and Tiger Woods 468 00:27:20,280 --> 00:27:23,560 Speaker 1: are the only two athletes I've ever been around where 469 00:27:23,640 --> 00:27:27,840 Speaker 1: people absolutely lose their mind when Michael was in his 470 00:27:27,920 --> 00:27:31,760 Speaker 1: heyday and Tiger and Tigers always been Tiger, those are 471 00:27:31,760 --> 00:27:34,600 Speaker 1: the like, those are the only two guys I've ever 472 00:27:34,640 --> 00:27:37,400 Speaker 1: been around. Like, people get excited when you're around other guys, 473 00:27:38,000 --> 00:27:42,000 Speaker 1: but people absolutely when Michael was in his heyday, people 474 00:27:42,280 --> 00:27:45,200 Speaker 1: and the same thing with Tiger, people just stop and 475 00:27:45,280 --> 00:27:47,920 Speaker 1: stare and they think it's like it was crazy back 476 00:27:48,080 --> 00:27:52,000 Speaker 1: it was amazing and crazy. So thank god I've never 477 00:27:52,040 --> 00:27:54,800 Speaker 1: been as big as either one of those guys, he said. 478 00:27:54,880 --> 00:27:58,080 Speaker 1: Charles Barkley, the Hall of Famer mclovin give Charles the 479 00:27:58,160 --> 00:28:01,800 Speaker 1: poll question today Okay, the NBA one. Yeah, okay, which 480 00:28:01,840 --> 00:28:04,600 Speaker 1: player has the most pressure on him in this year's postseason? 481 00:28:05,160 --> 00:28:14,480 Speaker 1: Luka Donchez, Joel Embiid, Nicolo Joki, Jannis Coopo or James Harden. Well, 482 00:28:14,520 --> 00:28:18,159 Speaker 1: it's an easy question. It's either it's either it's James Harden. 483 00:28:18,840 --> 00:28:23,000 Speaker 1: Uh the Nets. And the Nets got the most pressure 484 00:28:24,200 --> 00:28:26,360 Speaker 1: of any team in the NBA. They have to win 485 00:28:26,400 --> 00:28:28,840 Speaker 1: the championship, but their season is not a success. And 486 00:28:28,960 --> 00:28:32,640 Speaker 1: I said, you gotta put in Paul George as well. Uh, 487 00:28:32,640 --> 00:28:36,760 Speaker 1: that's a fair that's a fair thing. But Jannis, Jannis 488 00:28:36,840 --> 00:28:42,480 Speaker 1: has to Yannis and and I'm telling you something, Jannis, Uh, 489 00:28:42,640 --> 00:28:46,080 Speaker 1: Jannis and James Harden and Paul George. Those three guys 490 00:28:46,160 --> 00:28:49,600 Speaker 1: got the most pressure. I think that two of those 491 00:28:49,640 --> 00:28:55,040 Speaker 1: guys got to get to the finals. I mean, listen. Uh. 492 00:28:55,160 --> 00:28:57,680 Speaker 1: Paul George is an interesting case because I don't think 493 00:28:57,720 --> 00:29:01,680 Speaker 1: people look at him like they look at Jannis or 494 00:29:02,000 --> 00:29:05,160 Speaker 1: or that team they put together in Brooklyn. Paul does 495 00:29:05,240 --> 00:29:09,160 Speaker 1: have some pressure. But like man, the West is as 496 00:29:09,200 --> 00:29:12,480 Speaker 1: crazy as I've ever seen it. I have zero ideas 497 00:29:12,480 --> 00:29:15,240 Speaker 1: who's going to win the West. But in the East, 498 00:29:16,040 --> 00:29:19,480 Speaker 1: it's easily. Brooklyn and Milwaukee who got to play in 499 00:29:19,480 --> 00:29:23,320 Speaker 1: the second round of the playoffs. But yeah, it's it's 500 00:29:23,360 --> 00:29:26,920 Speaker 1: Brooklyn and Milwaukee. Both of those teams got to at 501 00:29:27,000 --> 00:29:31,600 Speaker 1: least get to the finals or it's been a disappointing season. 502 00:29:32,600 --> 00:29:35,240 Speaker 1: You were on ESPN yesterday with Mike Greenberg and it 503 00:29:35,440 --> 00:29:40,160 Speaker 1: sounded like if Lebron wins another title, you might elevate 504 00:29:40,240 --> 00:29:44,760 Speaker 1: Lebron above Michael Jordan. You're open to then, I'm open 505 00:29:44,840 --> 00:29:48,000 Speaker 1: to the discussion. Okay. You know, first of all, I 506 00:29:48,040 --> 00:29:50,160 Speaker 1: think they got a lucky break having to play the 507 00:29:50,160 --> 00:29:55,239 Speaker 1: Phoenix Signs. But if they can win three series, if 508 00:29:55,600 --> 00:30:00,640 Speaker 1: he beats the Phoenix, they beat Denver and then they 509 00:30:00,760 --> 00:30:05,160 Speaker 1: beat the Clippers, the caveat to be honestly, Dan is 510 00:30:05,160 --> 00:30:08,480 Speaker 1: gonna be if if they can beat the Big three 511 00:30:08,600 --> 00:30:12,000 Speaker 1: in Brooklyn. Now, I'm I'm telling you, I'm picking Milwaukee 512 00:30:12,040 --> 00:30:14,840 Speaker 1: to win the East. I love what they've done with 513 00:30:14,920 --> 00:30:18,640 Speaker 1: Drew Holliday and PJ. Tucker. But if Lebron can get 514 00:30:18,880 --> 00:30:22,880 Speaker 1: win three series on the roads and beat the Big 515 00:30:22,960 --> 00:30:26,640 Speaker 1: three in Brooklyn. Now, if he beats Philadelphia a Milwaukee, 516 00:30:27,640 --> 00:30:30,960 Speaker 1: but if he beats those three guys in Brooklyn, I 517 00:30:31,000 --> 00:30:34,400 Speaker 1: would be open to the discussion that he is, I 518 00:30:34,400 --> 00:30:38,440 Speaker 1: would elevate him past Kobe, and then I would listen 519 00:30:38,520 --> 00:30:41,800 Speaker 1: to the argument that he's in the conversation with Michael Jordan. 520 00:30:42,040 --> 00:30:45,520 Speaker 1: I think that's only fair because just to me, it's 521 00:30:45,520 --> 00:30:49,200 Speaker 1: gonna you know, he's been out basically all season after 522 00:30:49,280 --> 00:30:52,080 Speaker 1: the Days, has been out basically all season. If they 523 00:30:52,120 --> 00:30:54,720 Speaker 1: can win three series on the road and beat the 524 00:30:54,840 --> 00:30:59,200 Speaker 1: Brooklyn Nets, I'm open to the conversation that he's on 525 00:30:59,400 --> 00:31:02,400 Speaker 1: Michael joy the level, but you don't even have him 526 00:31:02,400 --> 00:31:05,560 Speaker 1: on Kobe's level. I don't. I got Kobe a little 527 00:31:05,600 --> 00:31:10,120 Speaker 1: bit ahead of Lebron, just a little bit, I do. 528 00:31:10,800 --> 00:31:15,520 Speaker 1: But you know, it's so funny when you have these arguments. Hey, listen, 529 00:31:15,560 --> 00:31:17,840 Speaker 1: I'm not putting in my head like when people be arger, 530 00:31:18,120 --> 00:31:21,640 Speaker 1: you know, crazy, Charles Barkley, you're crazy. You got Kovid 531 00:31:21,680 --> 00:31:24,960 Speaker 1: Brown ahead of Lebron, I said, I don't have Papa 532 00:31:25,200 --> 00:31:27,719 Speaker 1: Jones ahead of Lebron. I said, Kobe Bryant is one 533 00:31:27,720 --> 00:31:31,040 Speaker 1: of the best to ever do it. And I love Popeye. 534 00:31:31,480 --> 00:31:34,240 Speaker 1: But I'm telling you, like you know, he's in that conversation. 535 00:31:34,280 --> 00:31:37,080 Speaker 1: But man, I don't think the Lakers are gonna win 536 00:31:37,120 --> 00:31:40,680 Speaker 1: the championship, but they're able to win a championshipship this year. 537 00:31:41,120 --> 00:31:43,160 Speaker 1: I think you got to at least be open to 538 00:31:43,240 --> 00:31:48,240 Speaker 1: the conversation. We had Robert Orion yesterday and after he 539 00:31:48,320 --> 00:31:50,640 Speaker 1: got a shout out from Rudy tom Janovic at the 540 00:31:50,680 --> 00:31:52,040 Speaker 1: Hall of Fame that he should be in the Hall 541 00:31:52,040 --> 00:31:54,320 Speaker 1: of Fame, I asked Robert if he is a Hall 542 00:31:54,360 --> 00:31:58,200 Speaker 1: of Famer, what do you think? You know, Dan, I 543 00:31:58,720 --> 00:32:01,640 Speaker 1: don't answer those questions because I don't want to poo 544 00:32:01,720 --> 00:32:06,120 Speaker 1: pool on anybody. Robert is somebody I respect. He had 545 00:32:06,160 --> 00:32:09,640 Speaker 1: a hell of a career, but you know I don't. 546 00:32:10,360 --> 00:32:12,600 Speaker 1: I'm just glad number one to see Weeb finally got in. 547 00:32:12,640 --> 00:32:15,120 Speaker 1: He should have been in five years ago. But I 548 00:32:15,160 --> 00:32:19,120 Speaker 1: think it's such a tough call the vote. I don't 549 00:32:19,160 --> 00:32:23,680 Speaker 1: have a vote, but man, that's a very interesting debate 550 00:32:23,720 --> 00:32:26,360 Speaker 1: about Robert or He's had a hell of a career. 551 00:32:26,480 --> 00:32:29,640 Speaker 1: I know you want a lot of championships, But like 552 00:32:29,720 --> 00:32:31,960 Speaker 1: I said, I'm glad I don't have to make that vote. 553 00:32:32,520 --> 00:32:36,080 Speaker 1: Would you rather have Robert Ry's career? Karl Malones Karl 554 00:32:36,120 --> 00:32:39,480 Speaker 1: Malone's Karl Malone's easy Hall of Fame and he's on 555 00:32:39,560 --> 00:32:42,280 Speaker 1: the dream team. Listen, Hey, everybody wants to win. I 556 00:32:42,360 --> 00:32:45,120 Speaker 1: want I wanted to win the championship. But you know, 557 00:32:45,240 --> 00:32:49,800 Speaker 1: it's interesting how guys who get paid to talk about 558 00:32:49,880 --> 00:32:55,120 Speaker 1: sports always wanted bad mouth guys like myself, Karl Malone, 559 00:32:55,320 --> 00:32:59,240 Speaker 1: John Stockton, Patrick Ewing. You know, it's a I don't 560 00:32:59,240 --> 00:33:02,680 Speaker 1: know how I became a singular thing. You know, it's like, 561 00:33:03,440 --> 00:33:06,760 Speaker 1: you know, and nobody wins, Like, wait, why y'all picking 562 00:33:06,840 --> 00:33:08,360 Speaker 1: on and I mean picking it's not the right way. 563 00:33:08,400 --> 00:33:10,240 Speaker 1: Why y'all picking on that? Like we just didn't have 564 00:33:10,360 --> 00:33:13,400 Speaker 1: teams that were good enough to win. So I don't 565 00:33:13,480 --> 00:33:16,080 Speaker 1: understand how it switched from like it's a team game 566 00:33:16,760 --> 00:33:20,000 Speaker 1: and then when you don't win, like what was your faults? 567 00:33:20,840 --> 00:33:23,120 Speaker 1: As my fault? We were immanted, we were we were 568 00:33:23,160 --> 00:33:27,000 Speaker 1: on TV. You know, hey, we didn't listen. I'm not, 569 00:33:27,160 --> 00:33:28,840 Speaker 1: I don't and I don't. I don't want to throw 570 00:33:28,880 --> 00:33:31,400 Speaker 1: shade and anybody what I'm saying. Hey, we only showed 571 00:33:31,480 --> 00:33:34,360 Speaker 1: the Utah Jazz because the John Stocking and called them alone. 572 00:33:34,480 --> 00:33:36,880 Speaker 1: Let's get that out the way. We didn't show the 573 00:33:37,000 --> 00:33:42,640 Speaker 1: Jazz be called the thorough Bailey and bron Russell. I mean, hey, 574 00:33:42,760 --> 00:33:45,240 Speaker 1: I love says the Ballos. The reason we were on 575 00:33:45,360 --> 00:33:48,880 Speaker 1: TV a week was the cause of me. It wasn't 576 00:33:48,880 --> 00:33:51,080 Speaker 1: it called the says the Bolos and the gill Night. 577 00:33:51,760 --> 00:33:56,400 Speaker 1: You know that if you could change anything about that 578 00:33:56,560 --> 00:34:01,240 Speaker 1: series against the Bulls in the finals, what would you change. 579 00:34:01,360 --> 00:34:06,160 Speaker 1: Strategy was? But we had you know, we had a 580 00:34:06,440 --> 00:34:10,920 Speaker 1: six point league and we ran three plays for me 581 00:34:12,160 --> 00:34:14,560 Speaker 1: and I had to pass the ball three straight times. 582 00:34:16,120 --> 00:34:20,240 Speaker 1: I lay around sometime and think like, man, I should 583 00:34:20,280 --> 00:34:23,000 Speaker 1: have went through that double team. It's not a good 584 00:34:23,080 --> 00:34:26,960 Speaker 1: basketball play. It's not a smart basketball play. But they 585 00:34:27,080 --> 00:34:29,359 Speaker 1: made me pass the ball three times in a row 586 00:34:29,640 --> 00:34:32,840 Speaker 1: and we didn't score, and they scored seven straight points 587 00:34:33,040 --> 00:34:36,400 Speaker 1: to beat us about one. Sometimes when I'm in my 588 00:34:36,480 --> 00:34:40,759 Speaker 1: private moments, I'm like, I, actually, it's so funny you 589 00:34:40,800 --> 00:34:43,880 Speaker 1: asked me that question. I was like, okay. Because Harres 590 00:34:43,920 --> 00:34:47,040 Speaker 1: Grant and Scotti Pippen are the two best defenders when 591 00:34:47,040 --> 00:34:50,200 Speaker 1: they w there's no space because they're both lean and athletic. 592 00:34:50,680 --> 00:34:52,800 Speaker 1: It's hard to find an astute a passing an angle 593 00:34:52,840 --> 00:34:55,640 Speaker 1: out of that double team. But sometimes when I'm in 594 00:34:55,719 --> 00:34:58,600 Speaker 1: a room by myself, I think like, well, maybe if 595 00:34:58,640 --> 00:35:01,319 Speaker 1: I had to did this, But it's like I say, 596 00:35:01,360 --> 00:35:03,279 Speaker 1: it's not a smart basketball player to try to go 597 00:35:03,360 --> 00:35:06,919 Speaker 1: against a double team, especially those two guys. But that's 598 00:35:06,920 --> 00:35:10,160 Speaker 1: the only thing I think about the time. Then great question, 599 00:35:11,320 --> 00:35:16,960 Speaker 1: and then don't leave John John Packson open. Well, okay, 600 00:35:17,160 --> 00:35:20,120 Speaker 1: so you know it's interesting on the play because I 601 00:35:20,239 --> 00:35:22,040 Speaker 1: had been studied because I knew we were gonna play 602 00:35:22,080 --> 00:35:23,839 Speaker 1: the Bulls in the finals a year I got three 603 00:35:23,920 --> 00:35:26,640 Speaker 1: at the Phoenix. I told Cotton fitz Simmons that say, hey, 604 00:35:26,680 --> 00:35:29,399 Speaker 1: we're gonna play the Bulls in the finals, and I've 605 00:35:29,440 --> 00:35:32,279 Speaker 1: been studying tape on them all year. So the play, 606 00:35:32,960 --> 00:35:35,080 Speaker 1: because people to Charles went for that steal, I went 607 00:35:35,160 --> 00:35:37,000 Speaker 1: for the steel because I know nobody else on the team. 608 00:35:37,000 --> 00:35:38,760 Speaker 1: It's only two guys on the team had the courage 609 00:35:38,760 --> 00:35:41,480 Speaker 1: to shoot the ball. That was Mja and Packson. Because 610 00:35:41,520 --> 00:35:43,640 Speaker 1: you go back and look at the play, Scotty asked 611 00:35:43,680 --> 00:35:47,000 Speaker 1: to had a lay up and Harres Brett had a layup, 612 00:35:47,040 --> 00:35:49,160 Speaker 1: but they didn't want to shoot the ball. So the 613 00:35:49,239 --> 00:35:51,560 Speaker 1: play was gonna be In my mind, I saw him running. 614 00:35:52,000 --> 00:35:54,200 Speaker 1: They were gonna throw it to Scotty and they were 615 00:35:54,200 --> 00:35:57,200 Speaker 1: gonna have Michael coming at us full speed. So I 616 00:35:57,440 --> 00:36:01,440 Speaker 1: jumped the play. I jumped the way because I said, 617 00:36:01,480 --> 00:36:04,000 Speaker 1: Scott is not gonna shoot it. Nobody's gonna shoot it. 618 00:36:04,000 --> 00:36:05,799 Speaker 1: So I feel like I had time to get back 619 00:36:05,840 --> 00:36:09,080 Speaker 1: into play. But Scott gave it to heart. He didn't 620 00:36:09,120 --> 00:36:11,479 Speaker 1: he passed it. He could have took it to the basket. 621 00:36:11,560 --> 00:36:13,120 Speaker 1: We would have tied. It would have tied it up. 622 00:36:13,520 --> 00:36:15,680 Speaker 1: Horace had a layup, it would have tied it up. 623 00:36:16,000 --> 00:36:18,439 Speaker 1: And I said, okay, But I went to jump Michael 624 00:36:18,440 --> 00:36:20,560 Speaker 1: because Michael was gonna get it was gonna be a handoff. 625 00:36:20,840 --> 00:36:26,360 Speaker 1: So I jumped to play and listen, Uh, Danny shouldn't 626 00:36:26,360 --> 00:36:28,440 Speaker 1: have left Paxson because he dared to score to two. 627 00:36:28,480 --> 00:36:30,719 Speaker 1: It would have still been a tip game. But hey, 628 00:36:31,080 --> 00:36:33,400 Speaker 1: it is what it is. Brother. But I had Scott 629 00:36:33,440 --> 00:36:38,759 Speaker 1: at that play for six months. That's you know, just 630 00:36:38,960 --> 00:36:42,600 Speaker 1: the detail, it's just pretty amazing. Well, you know, I 631 00:36:42,719 --> 00:36:44,800 Speaker 1: used to always look at the tape. So when I 632 00:36:44,880 --> 00:36:46,640 Speaker 1: got traded, I said, we're gonna play the Bulls in 633 00:36:46,719 --> 00:36:48,400 Speaker 1: the finals. And I said, I cannot I got this. 634 00:36:50,239 --> 00:36:53,319 Speaker 1: We're gonna play them, and I was very confident against them, 635 00:36:53,719 --> 00:36:56,279 Speaker 1: very confident because I know they couldn't match up with me. 636 00:36:57,200 --> 00:37:01,040 Speaker 1: We couldn't match up with Michael and it I actually 637 00:37:01,040 --> 00:37:03,239 Speaker 1: I think the guy who played great that series will 638 00:37:03,239 --> 00:37:07,400 Speaker 1: never get me to with Scott Williams. He's the guy who, really, 639 00:37:07,680 --> 00:37:11,160 Speaker 1: in my opinion, had a huge effect in that series. 640 00:37:11,680 --> 00:37:16,080 Speaker 1: But it still came down to Michael against me, and 641 00:37:16,360 --> 00:37:20,200 Speaker 1: I didn't The only game I didn't play I played 642 00:37:20,239 --> 00:37:21,920 Speaker 1: I didn't play good in one, but the rest of 643 00:37:21,960 --> 00:37:25,200 Speaker 1: the series I played good, but it was I just 644 00:37:25,280 --> 00:37:28,759 Speaker 1: couldn't make enough place for us to win. Go back 645 00:37:28,800 --> 00:37:31,759 Speaker 1: to bed. Thanks for joining us, I did, Dan. I 646 00:37:31,960 --> 00:37:34,680 Speaker 1: told you I once you're up, you can't go back 647 00:37:34,719 --> 00:37:37,040 Speaker 1: to bed.

But what 711 00:41:06,640 --> 00:41:09,920 Speaker 1: song from Coldplay? Anyone? And it's just like, oh, somebody, 712 00:41:10,080 --> 00:41:13,279 Speaker 1: something bad happened. They all just have that perfect like 713 00:41:13,600 --> 00:41:16,600 Speaker 1: downer sort of note to it, waiting manute. Maybe not 714 00:41:16,760 --> 00:41:19,279 Speaker 1: Vita Levita, but a lot of them are like, and 715 00:41:19,440 --> 00:41:25,120 Speaker 1: I'll fix you it really is. You gotta let Fritzie 716 00:41:25,200 --> 00:41:28,240 Speaker 1: know who Coldplay is. He has no idea. I'm assuming 717 00:41:28,280 --> 00:41:30,279 Speaker 1: there's some kind of musical group. Yes it is, okay, Yes, 718 00:41:30,400 --> 00:41:34,080 Speaker 1: Chris Martin and Coldplay used to be married to Gwyneth Paltrow. 719 00:41:34,960 --> 00:41:39,280 Speaker 1: They've been around around twenty years time. Who's gone? Yeah, exactly, 720 00:41:39,760 --> 00:41:43,800 Speaker 1: Who's high pitch? Charles Barkley was great. It was some 721 00:41:44,080 --> 00:41:49,279 Speaker 1: really interesting stuff. I found it interesting that he still 722 00:41:49,320 --> 00:41:52,480 Speaker 1: has Kobe over Lebron James on his whole time list. 723 00:41:53,560 --> 00:41:57,480 Speaker 1: And also he took the gentlemanly way out, or the 724 00:41:57,560 --> 00:42:00,640 Speaker 1: approach when I asked him about Robert or because he 725 00:42:00,760 --> 00:42:03,120 Speaker 1: doesn't want to be the guy who says, hey, you know, 726 00:42:03,640 --> 00:42:06,560 Speaker 1: I'm at I'm at the gates of Heaven. I decide 727 00:42:06,600 --> 00:42:08,480 Speaker 1: who gets in, and I'm going to tell you who's 728 00:42:08,800 --> 00:42:11,320 Speaker 1: on my level and who's not. I don't think he 729 00:42:11,400 --> 00:42:13,400 Speaker 1: thinks that Robert Ory's a Hall of Famer, but I 730 00:42:13,480 --> 00:42:16,880 Speaker 1: think he was trying to be respectful, and you know, 731 00:42:17,000 --> 00:42:19,520 Speaker 1: probably not a fair question to ask a Hall of 732 00:42:19,600 --> 00:42:23,680 Speaker 1: famer about a potential Hall of Famer, but I thought 733 00:42:23,719 --> 00:42:26,600 Speaker 1: with Charles usually pretty forthcoming, but I think that he 734 00:42:26,680 --> 00:42:30,560 Speaker 1: took the appropriate way up. Update the poll results. Sarah 735 00:42:30,600 --> 00:42:32,440 Speaker 1: mcclubb who has the most pressure on him in the 736 00:42:32,520 --> 00:42:37,040 Speaker 1: NBA playoffs? Jannis is the early leader. Paul George second. Okay, yeah, 737 00:42:37,040 --> 00:42:39,600 Speaker 1: I can see that. Oh, by the way, I got 738 00:42:39,640 --> 00:42:42,160 Speaker 1: another piece of sound from Nate McMillan. He got fined 739 00:42:42,200 --> 00:42:46,440 Speaker 1: twenty five thousand dollars. This might have been the reason 740 00:42:46,520 --> 00:42:49,960 Speaker 1: why he was fining twenty five thousand dollars. I'll have 741 00:42:50,120 --> 00:42:52,840 Speaker 1: that for you coming up. He talks about the challenges 742 00:42:52,840 --> 00:42:55,319 Speaker 1: of facing the Knicks, knowing the league once the Knicks 743 00:42:55,400 --> 00:42:59,040 Speaker 1: to succeed. Now, he did have an answer at a 744 00:42:59,080 --> 00:43:02,560 Speaker 1: press conference. The league wants the Knicks in the playoffs. 745 00:43:03,000 --> 00:43:06,479 Speaker 1: This is a little different than Hey, the league wants 746 00:43:06,480 --> 00:43:10,120 Speaker 1: the Knicks in the playoffs. That's true. Does the league 747 00:43:10,280 --> 00:43:14,799 Speaker 1: want the Knicks to succeed in the playoffs? That might 748 00:43:14,840 --> 00:43:17,560 Speaker 1: have cost him the twenty five thousand dollars. Also, John 749 00:43:17,680 --> 00:43:20,000 Speaker 1: Smoltz will join us. Does he agree with Clayton Kershall 750 00:43:20,040 --> 00:43:23,360 Speaker 1: these no hitters bad for baseball? Rich Eisen from the 751 00:43:23,480 --> 00:43:27,400 Speaker 1: NFL Network will join us as well.
