1
00:00:01,320 --> 00:00:04,000
Speaker 1: Listen sports.

2
00:00:04,040 --> 00:00:07,040
Speaker 2: Hello, everybody happy Sunday, Well not so much if you're

3
00:00:07,040 --> 00:00:09,200
Speaker 2: a Clippers fan, but thanks for tuning in.

4
00:00:09,520 --> 00:00:13,960
Speaker 3: I'm want Ci Belagas alongside former All Pro safety Carrie Rhoads.

5
00:00:14,240 --> 00:00:16,640
Speaker 2: I gonna hang out with you for the next three

6
00:00:16,760 --> 00:00:22,640
Speaker 2: hours as we dive into the NBA playoffs, a little NFL,

7
00:00:22,720 --> 00:00:25,239
Speaker 2: a little bit of everything today, Carrie, like, always too

8
00:00:25,280 --> 00:00:26,560
Speaker 2: much on our docket.

9
00:00:26,280 --> 00:00:27,280
Speaker 3: But we're gonna do.

10
00:00:27,240 --> 00:00:28,360
Speaker 4: It, Yes we are.

11
00:00:28,640 --> 00:00:29,920
Speaker 3: And so this is what I'm gonna start with.

12
00:00:30,000 --> 00:00:32,280
Speaker 4: I have all right what you got.

13
00:00:32,760 --> 00:00:34,240
Speaker 3: Curses are real. Listen.

14
00:00:34,320 --> 00:00:36,960
Speaker 2: I'm not superstitious, but I'm a little stitious. And the

15
00:00:37,000 --> 00:00:39,200
Speaker 2: thing is, curses are real.

16
00:00:39,800 --> 00:00:42,160
Speaker 4: There is no way what curse would you be speaking

17
00:00:42,159 --> 00:00:43,599
Speaker 4: about the Clipper Purselip.

18
00:00:43,840 --> 00:00:48,920
Speaker 2: There is no way that after watching yesterday's performance or

19
00:00:49,080 --> 00:00:52,360
Speaker 2: lack thereof of the Clippers.

20
00:00:52,080 --> 00:00:55,240
Speaker 3: That I walk out of there not believing in curses.

21
00:00:55,600 --> 00:00:58,800
Speaker 2: I mean, it was a game seven, Carrie, and I'm

22
00:00:58,880 --> 00:01:01,120
Speaker 2: just like, did you guys think you had a game

23
00:01:01,480 --> 00:01:04,120
Speaker 2: into it Dome in two days? I'm super confused on

24
00:01:04,160 --> 00:01:08,040
Speaker 2: your lack of effort, your lack of hustle, your lack

25
00:01:08,160 --> 00:01:11,520
Speaker 2: of heart, your lack of ball protection, your.

26
00:01:11,480 --> 00:01:14,800
Speaker 3: Lack of energy. I can't keep going, Carrie.

27
00:01:14,560 --> 00:01:16,959
Speaker 4: Keep going, all of it, keep going.

28
00:01:17,040 --> 00:01:21,839
Speaker 3: None of that, no good, none of not nothing was exciting.

29
00:01:21,880 --> 00:01:24,560
Speaker 3: And the thing is, like, I'm a true firm believer.

30
00:01:25,440 --> 00:01:28,520
Speaker 2: How you lose matters, And I would have rather been

31
00:01:28,560 --> 00:01:33,240
Speaker 2: sitting here like Pistons fans complaining on a heart break

32
00:01:33,520 --> 00:01:35,760
Speaker 2: moment where they didn't get a final shot off or

33
00:01:35,800 --> 00:01:38,959
Speaker 2: a missed call by the ref. I would much rather

34
00:01:39,040 --> 00:01:43,560
Speaker 2: be here telling you, complaining about that, about a heartbreaking loss.

35
00:01:43,720 --> 00:01:48,080
Speaker 2: But instead I'm here complaining about an embarrassing loss that

36
00:01:48,120 --> 00:01:52,360
Speaker 2: the Clippers put on on a Game seven in Denver.

37
00:01:52,640 --> 00:01:56,440
Speaker 2: I like, I was in disbelief as I was watching

38
00:01:56,480 --> 00:01:59,040
Speaker 2: this game, even after the first quarter up by five

39
00:01:59,080 --> 00:02:01,720
Speaker 2: points Niccoleo, which I think was zero of six at

40
00:02:01,760 --> 00:02:04,960
Speaker 2: that point, and I still did not like what I

41
00:02:05,080 --> 00:02:08,360
Speaker 2: was watching. The lack of all the things I mentioned,

42
00:02:08,400 --> 00:02:10,240
Speaker 2: along with intensity and the ball.

43
00:02:10,080 --> 00:02:13,120
Speaker 3: Protection, Carre, the ball protection. Why are we just throwing

44
00:02:13,160 --> 00:02:16,800
Speaker 3: these easy lob passes. It's game seven? Well, I was

45
00:02:16,880 --> 00:02:22,080
Speaker 3: so annoyed, annoyed because I'm pretty sure everyone heard me

46
00:02:22,560 --> 00:02:25,079
Speaker 3: a week ago yelling I'm going to the finals. I'm

47
00:02:25,120 --> 00:02:25,880
Speaker 3: going to the finals.

48
00:02:25,880 --> 00:02:27,400
Speaker 5: You can still go to I can still go to

49
00:02:27,400 --> 00:02:29,080
Speaker 5: the I'm going to the finals, but you know who's

50
00:02:29,080 --> 00:02:31,440
Speaker 5: not going to be there, the freaking Clippers. And today

51
00:02:31,480 --> 00:02:33,040
Speaker 5: I'm not wearing a Clipper shirt. I'm not wearing the

52
00:02:33,080 --> 00:02:34,919
Speaker 5: James Harden shirt that they gave me an into a

53
00:02:35,040 --> 00:02:36,120
Speaker 5: dome at Game four.

54
00:02:36,280 --> 00:02:39,680
Speaker 2: I'm not wearing that because James Harden took eight shots?

55
00:02:40,480 --> 00:02:42,920
Speaker 3: Eight shots? And what did you text me when you

56
00:02:42,960 --> 00:02:43,320
Speaker 3: saw that?

57
00:02:44,639 --> 00:02:45,880
Speaker 4: What did you said?

58
00:02:46,200 --> 00:02:49,000
Speaker 2: Is he doing this because of like the criticism, like

59
00:02:49,360 --> 00:02:51,200
Speaker 2: if he doesn't take the shots and they get criticized,

60
00:02:51,280 --> 00:02:53,120
Speaker 2: That's right, right, that's what you text me. And you

61
00:02:53,160 --> 00:02:56,240
Speaker 2: know what, James Harden, I appreciate everything that you have

62
00:02:56,240 --> 00:02:57,359
Speaker 2: done for the Clippers this season.

63
00:02:57,560 --> 00:02:59,120
Speaker 3: We were in this position.

64
00:02:58,800 --> 00:03:01,640
Speaker 2: Because of what you did throughout the regular season, a

65
00:03:01,720 --> 00:03:03,960
Speaker 2: year where nobody expected the Clippers to even make the

66
00:03:03,960 --> 00:03:07,200
Speaker 2: playoffs because of the Kawhi Leonard injury, losing Paul George,

67
00:03:07,240 --> 00:03:10,800
Speaker 2: all of these question marks. But you, Norman pale Avitza Zubats,

68
00:03:11,000 --> 00:03:12,880
Speaker 2: carried us, carried us a fifty.

69
00:03:12,639 --> 00:03:15,680
Speaker 3: Win season the regular season, absolute success. And you know

70
00:03:15,720 --> 00:03:16,360
Speaker 3: what I would have.

71
00:03:16,440 --> 00:03:19,200
Speaker 2: Rather been talking about right now, Carrie, telling you man,

72
00:03:19,360 --> 00:03:22,000
Speaker 2: James Harden, took thirty seven shots and made seven.

73
00:03:22,280 --> 00:03:25,760
Speaker 3: Instead, I'm telling you he took eight shots.

74
00:03:25,840 --> 00:03:29,520
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's the part that just doesn't make any sense

75
00:03:29,520 --> 00:03:31,560
Speaker 4: at all. Right, Like, coming into this game, we've been

76
00:03:32,120 --> 00:03:35,040
Speaker 4: harpening on how much of a positive this has been

77
00:03:35,240 --> 00:03:37,680
Speaker 4: as far as a season for James Harden made it

78
00:03:37,680 --> 00:03:40,000
Speaker 4: back to the All Star team, carried a team that

79
00:03:40,280 --> 00:03:43,800
Speaker 4: was not favored, not a team that had high expectations,

80
00:03:43,840 --> 00:03:46,960
Speaker 4: and got them to where they are, played excellent basketball

81
00:03:46,960 --> 00:03:49,320
Speaker 4: all year. But the one thing that's always been a

82
00:03:49,360 --> 00:03:53,320
Speaker 4: constant around him and his performance in general, is in

83
00:03:53,360 --> 00:03:57,440
Speaker 4: the big moments he shrinks. And we've talked about this before.

84
00:03:57,560 --> 00:03:59,560
Speaker 4: There's a lot of factors that go into that, but

85
00:03:59,640 --> 00:04:03,040
Speaker 4: for him in particular, it is one of those things

86
00:04:03,040 --> 00:04:06,120
Speaker 4: where it is it's a head case situation. He's heard

87
00:04:06,160 --> 00:04:09,320
Speaker 4: it so much now, he's heard about his inefficiency in

88
00:04:09,320 --> 00:04:13,480
Speaker 4: big games. And obviously he was looked upon more in

89
00:04:13,520 --> 00:04:17,880
Speaker 4: this past to be a volume scorer. This year hasn't.

90
00:04:18,160 --> 00:04:19,920
Speaker 4: It was the case during the regular season a little bit.

91
00:04:19,920 --> 00:04:23,080
Speaker 4: He had Norman Powell to help, you know, Evanna I

92
00:04:23,200 --> 00:04:24,960
Speaker 4: Zubat as well steps up as well and scored a

93
00:04:24,960 --> 00:04:28,120
Speaker 4: lot of points. But this year wasn't that year he

94
00:04:28,720 --> 00:04:32,200
Speaker 4: needed to be in this playoff somebody that was aggressive,

95
00:04:32,240 --> 00:04:34,960
Speaker 4: and especially in game six, Game seven, when you have

96
00:04:35,000 --> 00:04:37,840
Speaker 4: a chance to beat the different Nuggets and move on

97
00:04:37,880 --> 00:04:41,599
Speaker 4: to the next round and actually have a little reprieve

98
00:04:41,680 --> 00:04:44,839
Speaker 4: around your name as a star, you know, as a

99
00:04:44,839 --> 00:04:46,320
Speaker 4: star player in this league and has been a star

100
00:04:46,360 --> 00:04:47,720
Speaker 4: player for a long time, to actually get over the

101
00:04:47,760 --> 00:04:50,000
Speaker 4: hump and actually win a big game that matters, and

102
00:04:50,040 --> 00:04:52,520
Speaker 4: he just didn't show up, And that that part is

103
00:04:52,520 --> 00:04:56,240
Speaker 4: dissatisfying because it shouldn't be the case. You should never

104
00:04:56,960 --> 00:05:01,400
Speaker 4: leave a game on the field, on the diamond, on

105
00:05:01,440 --> 00:05:04,680
Speaker 4: the court without emptying your clip and he's, you know,

106
00:05:05,120 --> 00:05:07,120
Speaker 4: empty your clip with the Clippers, and he did and

107
00:05:07,160 --> 00:05:08,839
Speaker 4: he didn't do that, and that was disheartening.

108
00:05:09,240 --> 00:05:12,920
Speaker 2: Carry you should see me on my Tuesday night volleyball games.

109
00:05:13,480 --> 00:05:15,880
Speaker 2: I care more about that than the way it seemed

110
00:05:15,960 --> 00:05:18,880
Speaker 2: like the Clippers cared about Game seven, because it wasn't

111
00:05:18,960 --> 00:05:21,640
Speaker 2: just James Harden. Obviously, he gets a lot of the

112
00:05:21,680 --> 00:05:23,880
Speaker 2: criticism because of what you just said. He tends to

113
00:05:23,960 --> 00:05:27,400
Speaker 2: disappear in games five, six and seven.

114
00:05:27,600 --> 00:05:30,000
Speaker 3: Game six, he was great for us at into it

115
00:05:30,080 --> 00:05:33,400
Speaker 3: doome him. Norman Powell Kawhi Leonard all delivered in Game six,

116
00:05:33,600 --> 00:05:35,719
Speaker 3: so I was like, Okay, you just had a good game.

117
00:05:36,080 --> 00:05:38,840
Speaker 3: I get it. You hopped on a flight immediately went

118
00:05:38,880 --> 00:05:41,000
Speaker 3: to Denver. I get that. But that's why you're a

119
00:05:41,040 --> 00:05:41,880
Speaker 3: professional athlete.

120
00:05:41,880 --> 00:05:43,720
Speaker 2: That's why I play on Tuesday nights in an adult

121
00:05:43,760 --> 00:05:46,200
Speaker 2: legue because I'm not and you were making millions of

122
00:05:46,240 --> 00:05:48,960
Speaker 2: dollars and that's the difference. And yet I care more

123
00:05:49,080 --> 00:05:52,320
Speaker 2: about my one hour game then you care about a

124
00:05:52,360 --> 00:05:56,520
Speaker 2: game at seven. And I don't understand, Like where TYLERU, Like,

125
00:05:56,800 --> 00:05:57,320
Speaker 2: at what point?

126
00:05:57,320 --> 00:05:57,480
Speaker 6: Why?

127
00:05:57,560 --> 00:06:00,280
Speaker 7: Why did you just yell at I don't understand how

128
00:06:00,320 --> 00:06:02,200
Speaker 7: we just sit there and kind of just went through

129
00:06:02,240 --> 00:06:05,400
Speaker 7: the motions through the second and third quarter, because that's

130
00:06:05,400 --> 00:06:07,360
Speaker 7: what it felt like like we were just going through

131
00:06:07,400 --> 00:06:08,360
Speaker 7: the motions at that point.

132
00:06:08,440 --> 00:06:09,960
Speaker 4: I agree with that, but I think the one thing

133
00:06:10,000 --> 00:06:13,520
Speaker 4: with a veteran related team, which they do have screaming

134
00:06:13,520 --> 00:06:14,640
Speaker 4: at them, isn't going to be the answer.

135
00:06:14,720 --> 00:06:14,840
Speaker 1: Right.

136
00:06:14,880 --> 00:06:18,359
Speaker 4: So I think when athletes going to a game, in

137
00:06:18,400 --> 00:06:20,960
Speaker 4: a high intensity game, a big game, that really matters

138
00:06:21,720 --> 00:06:25,960
Speaker 4: if you're either prepared or you're not prepared. And when

139
00:06:26,000 --> 00:06:28,720
Speaker 4: I say prepared, I mean mentally and physically because they

140
00:06:28,760 --> 00:06:31,599
Speaker 4: go hand in hand. If you're mentally prepared and you

141
00:06:31,600 --> 00:06:33,719
Speaker 4: know what the game plan is, that gives you confidence,

142
00:06:34,279 --> 00:06:37,159
Speaker 4: confidence to go into the game and feel like you're

143
00:06:37,160 --> 00:06:39,000
Speaker 4: going to get it done. So your energy will be up.

144
00:06:39,040 --> 00:06:42,080
Speaker 4: So that's one. If you're not physically ready, that's another

145
00:06:42,080 --> 00:06:43,920
Speaker 4: thing as well. And so when you watch them play,

146
00:06:44,200 --> 00:06:45,960
Speaker 4: I heard Grant Hill on the on the call, he

147
00:06:46,040 --> 00:06:48,599
Speaker 4: kept saying, the Peppers look tired. They looked tired.

148
00:06:48,600 --> 00:06:51,200
Speaker 3: Their legs, yes, all the all the shots are short.

149
00:06:51,279 --> 00:06:54,000
Speaker 4: Yeah, but that's not an excuse though, because Denver's in

150
00:06:54,000 --> 00:06:55,320
Speaker 4: the same position. It's a game seventh.

151
00:06:56,320 --> 00:06:58,080
Speaker 3: Yeah. They also hopped on a flame exactly.

152
00:06:57,839 --> 00:07:00,359
Speaker 4: And they have no bench, yeah, and so they should

153
00:07:00,360 --> 00:07:02,080
Speaker 4: have been a more tire team. And so that's not

154
00:07:02,800 --> 00:07:04,800
Speaker 4: I hate him when Grant kept saying that, because that's

155
00:07:04,880 --> 00:07:07,560
Speaker 4: made that gave give an excuse. They gave the Nuggets

156
00:07:07,560 --> 00:07:10,280
Speaker 4: a disservice, right, like no both teams during the game seven.

157
00:07:10,640 --> 00:07:13,600
Speaker 4: The Nuggets bench is actually shorter than the Clippers' bench.

158
00:07:13,600 --> 00:07:16,360
Speaker 4: And so you come out and you have tennis. It's great,

159
00:07:16,640 --> 00:07:18,640
Speaker 4: but don't even be aggressive. I mean, the only person

160
00:07:18,640 --> 00:07:20,400
Speaker 4: that showed up in that game was Kawhi Leonard. I mean,

161
00:07:20,400 --> 00:07:22,600
Speaker 4: he came out and scored and was being aggressive, but

162
00:07:22,800 --> 00:07:24,240
Speaker 4: they weren't going to let him win that game.

163
00:07:24,400 --> 00:07:27,680
Speaker 2: They weren't, And Kawhi's shot was not falling in and out?

164
00:07:27,720 --> 00:07:29,240
Speaker 2: How many in and outs did he have?

165
00:07:29,640 --> 00:07:32,560
Speaker 7: I was just like, I get that his shot isn't going,

166
00:07:32,600 --> 00:07:33,480
Speaker 7: but at least he's trying.

167
00:07:33,680 --> 00:07:35,760
Speaker 3: He's trying to make a shot. He's not just taking threes.

168
00:07:35,760 --> 00:07:38,360
Speaker 3: He's driving as he always does. But it really felt

169
00:07:38,440 --> 00:07:40,440
Speaker 3: like where is everyone else's intensity?

170
00:07:40,640 --> 00:07:43,240
Speaker 2: And the thing with Kawhi, it's like, even though he

171
00:07:43,600 --> 00:07:45,920
Speaker 2: is let's say he is the leader.

172
00:07:45,720 --> 00:07:47,960
Speaker 4: Quote unquote, I was going there next.

173
00:07:47,800 --> 00:07:52,000
Speaker 7: Quote unquote, because he's not a leader in in house,

174
00:07:52,080 --> 00:07:53,280
Speaker 7: a boisterous leader.

175
00:07:53,520 --> 00:07:55,840
Speaker 3: He's not that we see his personality. It's just not

176
00:07:55,960 --> 00:07:56,400
Speaker 3: in him.

177
00:07:56,560 --> 00:07:59,760
Speaker 2: So it's like, who is responsible in this moment? And

178
00:07:59,800 --> 00:08:02,040
Speaker 2: that's I say, Tyler like yelling at them. I hear

179
00:08:02,040 --> 00:08:03,840
Speaker 2: what you're saying, of like, well, you can't yell at them,

180
00:08:03,880 --> 00:08:06,720
Speaker 2: but it's like, but do something different. It seemed like

181
00:08:06,720 --> 00:08:09,840
Speaker 2: we were just going through the motions and having such

182
00:08:11,120 --> 00:08:14,720
Speaker 2: high expectation. Not that the expectation I had starting the

183
00:08:14,720 --> 00:08:17,560
Speaker 2: season was this, but the way the Clippers ended the

184
00:08:17,600 --> 00:08:21,200
Speaker 2: season for the first time having Kawhi Leonard healthy, Like

185
00:08:21,240 --> 00:08:23,640
Speaker 2: all Clipper fans are saying, give me one playoff run

186
00:08:23,840 --> 00:08:25,320
Speaker 2: with the healthy Kawhi Leonard.

187
00:08:25,360 --> 00:08:27,360
Speaker 4: You got it, we got it, and this was it.

188
00:08:27,720 --> 00:08:31,400
Speaker 2: This is especially like the entire series carry from Game

189
00:08:31,440 --> 00:08:32,520
Speaker 2: one to Game seven.

190
00:08:32,960 --> 00:08:35,200
Speaker 4: Game one heartbreak.

191
00:08:34,640 --> 00:08:38,959
Speaker 2: Loss on probably a call that you know, shouldn't I

192
00:08:39,000 --> 00:08:42,160
Speaker 2: don't know, the double overtime whatever, Probably a game that

193
00:08:42,160 --> 00:08:44,760
Speaker 2: the Clippers should have stepped on their throats, went up

194
00:08:44,800 --> 00:08:48,200
Speaker 2: by fifteen, heartbreaking loss, double overtime when you should have

195
00:08:48,200 --> 00:08:50,480
Speaker 2: won it. Then to go on, there was one blowout

196
00:08:50,520 --> 00:08:53,480
Speaker 2: by both teams, and then the Aaron Gordon dunk that

197
00:08:53,559 --> 00:08:54,280
Speaker 2: I was a part of.

198
00:08:54,320 --> 00:08:56,280
Speaker 3: That really upset me because it was like, how did

199
00:08:56,280 --> 00:08:58,760
Speaker 3: you call that a basket? A lifetime you don't know

200
00:08:58,800 --> 00:09:01,800
Speaker 3: if that was good lying, you're lying, you didn't know that.

201
00:09:02,000 --> 00:09:02,480
Speaker 1: None of you.

202
00:09:02,440 --> 00:09:05,760
Speaker 3: Guys saw that in lifetime. The proper call was no basket.

203
00:09:05,880 --> 00:09:07,640
Speaker 3: Let me go look at it, and then if there's

204
00:09:07,760 --> 00:09:10,600
Speaker 3: enough evidence to overturn it, then you give Gordon the basket.

205
00:09:10,840 --> 00:09:12,719
Speaker 3: That was the call. So then I sit there and

206
00:09:12,760 --> 00:09:15,400
Speaker 3: I'm like, you know what, it's hard making excuses.

207
00:09:15,520 --> 00:09:19,520
Speaker 2: Is the NBA trying to push for Okac and Denver

208
00:09:19,600 --> 00:09:21,839
Speaker 2: to face each other because those are the two MVPs.

209
00:09:22,280 --> 00:09:25,560
Speaker 2: Like that call was very in favor of Denver for

210
00:09:25,600 --> 00:09:28,079
Speaker 2: no reason aside from you want Denver to win again

211
00:09:28,240 --> 00:09:29,119
Speaker 2: making excuses.

212
00:09:29,360 --> 00:09:31,800
Speaker 3: The reality is.

213
00:09:31,320 --> 00:09:36,880
Speaker 2: The Clippers embarrassed, Clipper Nation embarrassed, the one hundred and

214
00:09:36,960 --> 00:09:40,160
Speaker 2: twenty fans that Steve Balmer flew out privately on.

215
00:09:40,120 --> 00:09:44,920
Speaker 3: A jet because he's a baller, that's right, just embarrassed.

216
00:09:45,240 --> 00:09:46,480
Speaker 3: How do you go out like that?

217
00:09:46,640 --> 00:09:46,720
Speaker 8: You?

218
00:09:46,960 --> 00:09:49,640
Speaker 2: I'm asking you because you've been there, Yeah, Carrie, how

219
00:09:49,679 --> 00:09:50,640
Speaker 2: do you go out like that?

220
00:09:50,640 --> 00:09:52,440
Speaker 4: That's the thing you toused on a little bit in

221
00:09:52,480 --> 00:09:54,440
Speaker 4: the beginning of what you just said right now. And

222
00:09:54,640 --> 00:09:59,640
Speaker 4: the leadership aspect of it, there is no When I

223
00:09:59,679 --> 00:10:02,280
Speaker 4: watched them play, and I've seen them play obviously all

224
00:10:02,520 --> 00:10:06,160
Speaker 4: these playoff games, they don't have any emotional leader. They

225
00:10:06,200 --> 00:10:10,719
Speaker 4: don't know And so if your two star players are

226
00:10:10,880 --> 00:10:13,480
Speaker 4: reserved and cool, the rest of the team is going

227
00:10:13,520 --> 00:10:15,920
Speaker 4: to follow that. And so when the energy doesn't get

228
00:10:15,960 --> 00:10:19,040
Speaker 4: picked up by one of those two, and usually it

229
00:10:19,080 --> 00:10:21,720
Speaker 4: doesn't have to be the star player that's the emotional leader.

230
00:10:21,840 --> 00:10:23,800
Speaker 4: It doesn't have to be that way. But when I

231
00:10:23,840 --> 00:10:26,840
Speaker 4: look at that bench, also, who off the bench is

232
00:10:26,840 --> 00:10:29,839
Speaker 4: the emotional leader. I don't see anybody on that team

233
00:10:29,960 --> 00:10:30,360
Speaker 4: being that.

234
00:10:30,640 --> 00:10:31,040
Speaker 1: I mean, I.

235
00:10:33,559 --> 00:10:35,480
Speaker 4: Know, and he's on the other team right now. So

236
00:10:36,240 --> 00:10:38,040
Speaker 4: that's the point where you look at this game and

237
00:10:38,160 --> 00:10:41,559
Speaker 4: the intensity that it takes to win an important game

238
00:10:41,640 --> 00:10:45,000
Speaker 4: of a playoff game, a game seven, the intensity, the

239
00:10:45,040 --> 00:10:47,640
Speaker 4: focus has to be at an all time high, and

240
00:10:47,720 --> 00:10:50,560
Speaker 4: with those two ben your leaders, there's none of that,

241
00:10:50,800 --> 00:10:53,319
Speaker 4: Like it's always kind of reserved and kind of cool.

242
00:10:53,400 --> 00:10:56,240
Speaker 4: So I think that's what we got. A flat team,

243
00:10:56,280 --> 00:10:59,240
Speaker 4: a team that wasn't fully prepared. And I'm not gonna

244
00:10:59,240 --> 00:11:00,599
Speaker 4: say this's on ty Lou, going to say that's on

245
00:11:00,640 --> 00:11:01,239
Speaker 4: the players.

246
00:11:01,520 --> 00:11:03,360
Speaker 3: How can we not put it on ty Lou even

247
00:11:03,360 --> 00:11:03,760
Speaker 3: a little bit?

248
00:11:03,800 --> 00:11:06,160
Speaker 2: I feel like there's so much blame to go around, right,

249
00:11:06,200 --> 00:11:09,400
Speaker 2: like there really isn't one. But because there isn't a

250
00:11:09,880 --> 00:11:13,320
Speaker 2: voistous leader on the Clippers, Tyleru, I need you to

251
00:11:13,400 --> 00:11:16,520
Speaker 2: be a little bit more, you know, Joe Mizzoula a

252
00:11:16,559 --> 00:11:20,640
Speaker 2: little more, Greg Popovich a little bit psychotic and not

253
00:11:20,920 --> 00:11:24,320
Speaker 2: a player's coach because you don't have that leader. And

254
00:11:24,360 --> 00:11:26,240
Speaker 2: if you did, then I feel like you can't take

255
00:11:26,240 --> 00:11:29,000
Speaker 2: a seat back. But it's like I I also saw

256
00:11:29,040 --> 00:11:31,320
Speaker 2: no emotion from Tyler on I.

257
00:11:31,320 --> 00:11:32,080
Speaker 3: Think it was his birthday.

258
00:11:32,080 --> 00:11:35,000
Speaker 4: They said like you happy birthday, Happy birthday.

259
00:11:36,040 --> 00:11:40,360
Speaker 2: No, like, nobody had any emotion, any reaction, any They

260
00:11:40,360 --> 00:11:43,280
Speaker 2: were just it was like, are you there, knock knock?

261
00:11:43,480 --> 00:11:45,240
Speaker 3: Are you guys there? It's Game seven?

262
00:11:45,440 --> 00:11:47,320
Speaker 4: I was watching. Is this really frustrated? Like you are?

263
00:11:49,160 --> 00:11:51,120
Speaker 4: Was no? I literally I was like, should I text

264
00:11:51,160 --> 00:11:52,440
Speaker 4: my mos? I was like, now, I'm not gonna text her.

265
00:11:52,520 --> 00:11:54,600
Speaker 3: Run And you made the right choice, I mean the

266
00:11:54,640 --> 00:11:56,199
Speaker 3: right Not many people did text me because I think

267
00:11:56,520 --> 00:11:59,280
Speaker 3: they knew. They knew, And even in the first quarter,

268
00:11:59,400 --> 00:12:02,760
Speaker 3: I did not like what I saw. I just was like,

269
00:12:02,840 --> 00:12:04,160
Speaker 3: you guys, they.

270
00:12:04,000 --> 00:12:07,440
Speaker 2: Are suffocating you and you are up. But you're up

271
00:12:07,440 --> 00:12:09,160
Speaker 2: because Niccola Jokic and Jamal Maury.

272
00:12:09,000 --> 00:12:09,520
Speaker 3: Are not scoring.

273
00:12:09,559 --> 00:12:12,240
Speaker 2: Right now, let them get hot and then wait yeah,

274
00:12:12,280 --> 00:12:14,160
Speaker 2: and you knew it was coming. You knew one of

275
00:12:14,200 --> 00:12:16,800
Speaker 2: them was gonna get hot. So even after the first quarter,

276
00:12:16,880 --> 00:12:18,800
Speaker 2: I was I sat there and I was like, I

277
00:12:18,880 --> 00:12:20,080
Speaker 2: don't like what I'm seeing.

278
00:12:20,200 --> 00:12:22,480
Speaker 3: And again it wasn't. Of course, I thought the Clippers

279
00:12:22,480 --> 00:12:24,280
Speaker 3: were gonna win because I'm a Clippers fan. Right, But

280
00:12:24,640 --> 00:12:26,080
Speaker 3: I didn't think it was gonna be easy.

281
00:12:26,320 --> 00:12:30,040
Speaker 2: And I also didn't expect this type of ass banking

282
00:12:30,400 --> 00:12:31,680
Speaker 2: to happen in a game seven.

283
00:12:32,080 --> 00:12:32,920
Speaker 3: What are we doing?

284
00:12:33,200 --> 00:12:35,320
Speaker 4: I mean to go from the second quarter scoring nineteen points,

285
00:12:35,360 --> 00:12:36,959
Speaker 4: didn't come out in the third quarter score eighteen. It's

286
00:12:36,960 --> 00:12:37,400
Speaker 4: just crazy.

287
00:12:37,440 --> 00:12:41,559
Speaker 3: It's just what did you guys say at halftime? Keep it,

288
00:12:41,600 --> 00:12:44,320
Speaker 3: you're doing great, You're doing great. Let's hop out a

289
00:12:44,320 --> 00:12:48,360
Speaker 3: flight as soon as it was so disappointing, so embarrassing.

290
00:12:48,520 --> 00:12:52,360
Speaker 3: Embarrassing is honestly the word here, because again, I would

291
00:12:52,360 --> 00:12:54,960
Speaker 3: have rather been sitting here with you, Carrie discussing that

292
00:12:55,080 --> 00:12:58,480
Speaker 3: Nicola Jokic had a game winning hook shot over a Beatchazubuts, yeah,

293
00:12:58,600 --> 00:13:01,120
Speaker 3: or Jamal Murray hit nice jumper at the top of

294
00:13:01,160 --> 00:13:05,719
Speaker 3: the key over Harden whatever. That would have been heartbreaking.

295
00:13:06,040 --> 00:13:08,120
Speaker 7: But you know what, at least I would have seen fight,

296
00:13:08,520 --> 00:13:10,360
Speaker 7: and I would have seen grit, and I.

297
00:13:10,320 --> 00:13:12,920
Speaker 3: Would have seen all of the things that I expect

298
00:13:12,920 --> 00:13:16,319
Speaker 3: to see in a game seven. All of the things

299
00:13:16,480 --> 00:13:19,000
Speaker 3: I expect to see, I saw none of that.

300
00:13:19,520 --> 00:13:23,200
Speaker 7: Even a Visa Zubats, who I have been raving about, yeah,

301
00:13:23,240 --> 00:13:26,680
Speaker 7: also felt like just a skeleton of himself.

302
00:13:27,040 --> 00:13:29,880
Speaker 3: Everybody out there really was. I wanted to smack them

303
00:13:29,880 --> 00:13:32,400
Speaker 3: all across the head and wake them up because I

304
00:13:32,480 --> 00:13:33,960
Speaker 3: felt like they were sleepwalking.

305
00:13:34,160 --> 00:13:35,200
Speaker 4: Y'all, this isn't a dream.

306
00:13:35,200 --> 00:13:36,800
Speaker 3: And I get that you're tired, I really really do.

307
00:13:37,000 --> 00:13:38,880
Speaker 3: And I know, okay, see has been off for a

308
00:13:38,920 --> 00:13:39,480
Speaker 3: week and a half.

309
00:13:39,559 --> 00:13:41,280
Speaker 2: But it's like, if you were already thinking of that,

310
00:13:41,520 --> 00:13:42,880
Speaker 2: then why do we go to game seven?

311
00:13:42,920 --> 00:13:45,120
Speaker 3: Then you should have just lost in five games. Why

312
00:13:45,160 --> 00:13:46,920
Speaker 3: bring me to this? Why bring me to a game

313
00:13:46,960 --> 00:13:48,280
Speaker 3: seven like this? Carrie?

314
00:13:49,160 --> 00:13:51,199
Speaker 4: I don't know, don't I don't know if they sho

315
00:13:51,320 --> 00:13:54,320
Speaker 4: to give me the answer, I don't know. I just

316
00:13:54,440 --> 00:13:56,800
Speaker 4: know that I agree with what you're saying, and I

317
00:13:56,880 --> 00:13:59,559
Speaker 4: know the take that you're having right now, and it's

318
00:13:59,600 --> 00:14:03,920
Speaker 4: coming for It's coming from a real fan of a team, right.

319
00:14:03,960 --> 00:14:06,800
Speaker 4: And so when you see your team lose, if they

320
00:14:06,840 --> 00:14:09,439
Speaker 4: lose in the way like you just said, that's acceptable,

321
00:14:09,480 --> 00:14:11,600
Speaker 4: even though lose is not acceptible, no, of course not.

322
00:14:11,720 --> 00:14:15,760
Speaker 4: But with fight, you get beat by a great player.

323
00:14:15,840 --> 00:14:18,320
Speaker 4: He does something, he scores fifty points and he hits

324
00:14:18,320 --> 00:14:19,960
Speaker 4: the game whin. They're like, you can't say anything about it,

325
00:14:20,040 --> 00:14:23,040
Speaker 4: but the fact that he did none of that and

326
00:14:23,040 --> 00:14:25,000
Speaker 4: they still were about thirty in the fourth quarter. Is

327
00:14:25,080 --> 00:14:25,960
Speaker 4: just it's crazy.

328
00:14:26,040 --> 00:14:28,200
Speaker 2: And then you put in our bench and they and

329
00:14:28,400 --> 00:14:32,200
Speaker 2: they come out balling better than the starting five because

330
00:14:32,200 --> 00:14:33,720
Speaker 2: they're like, we don't have anything to lose, and it's like,

331
00:14:33,720 --> 00:14:35,480
Speaker 2: that's the mentality I wanted you to go in with.

332
00:14:35,520 --> 00:14:36,320
Speaker 4: It should have been that way.

333
00:14:36,320 --> 00:14:38,320
Speaker 3: We have nothing to lose at this point. It's game seven.

334
00:14:38,320 --> 00:14:39,400
Speaker 3: It's endeavor the altitude.

335
00:14:39,440 --> 00:14:39,720
Speaker 4: Whatever.

336
00:14:40,240 --> 00:14:42,320
Speaker 2: Take more than eight shots, James Harden, There's no way

337
00:14:42,320 --> 00:14:43,200
Speaker 2: I'm not taking more.

338
00:14:44,000 --> 00:14:45,800
Speaker 3: I would have taken more than nature. Oh yeah, I

339
00:14:45,800 --> 00:14:48,080
Speaker 3: don't care if I would have been blocked seven of them.

340
00:14:48,120 --> 00:14:52,320
Speaker 3: Like how it was just like again going through the

341
00:14:52,400 --> 00:14:55,600
Speaker 3: motions is what it felt like. And for a game seven,

342
00:14:56,000 --> 00:15:00,000
Speaker 3: the only true word is not it's not disappointing, it's embarrassed.

343
00:15:00,080 --> 00:15:03,800
Speaker 3: Scene I agree, and so so it's it's not a curse.

344
00:15:03,880 --> 00:15:05,200
Speaker 3: It's just the Clippers of being the Clippers.

345
00:15:06,800 --> 00:15:08,080
Speaker 4: Ask me next hour.

346
00:15:09,280 --> 00:15:12,160
Speaker 2: You know what, I think we can ask Mark Medina

347
00:15:12,480 --> 00:15:15,160
Speaker 2: next If the Clipper curse is a real thank you

348
00:15:15,200 --> 00:15:17,640
Speaker 2: for letting me vet I I I didn't say this

349
00:15:17,680 --> 00:15:18,080
Speaker 2: to anybody.

350
00:15:18,080 --> 00:15:18,800
Speaker 3: I've been holding it out.

351
00:15:19,120 --> 00:15:20,680
Speaker 4: I know I walked in the building. You said, I'm

352
00:15:20,720 --> 00:15:23,160
Speaker 4: not talking about anything Clipper until we can get on there.

353
00:15:23,280 --> 00:15:25,200
Speaker 4: I respected that, and here we go, and.

354
00:15:25,200 --> 00:15:27,360
Speaker 3: I'm sweating now because that's how annoyed I am. That's

355
00:15:27,360 --> 00:15:27,880
Speaker 3: how I know it.

356
00:15:28,480 --> 00:15:30,560
Speaker 4: Her eyes, her eyes are glazed over. Guys, You guys

357
00:15:30,560 --> 00:15:31,120
Speaker 4: don't know. It's like.

358
00:15:32,680 --> 00:15:34,760
Speaker 3: Real steam coming out. And don't worry. This team's gonna

359
00:15:34,840 --> 00:15:35,120
Speaker 3: keep going.

360
00:15:35,120 --> 00:15:36,600
Speaker 2: On the other side, as we talked to Mark Medina,

361
00:15:36,680 --> 00:15:38,880
Speaker 2: not just about the Clippers, but giving the Nuggets credit,

362
00:15:39,080 --> 00:15:41,400
Speaker 2: talking Lakers and the rest of the series, don't go anywhere.

363
00:15:41,560 --> 00:15:42,800
Speaker 3: Fox Sports Sunday.

364
00:15:44,320 --> 00:15:49,040
Speaker 9: Listening to Fox Sports Fox Sports Sunday, I am Manci

365
00:15:49,080 --> 00:15:53,240
Speaker 9: Belanyas alongside former All Pro safety carry roads our technical

366
00:15:53,280 --> 00:15:55,200
Speaker 9: producer Chrispherfet, trying to make me feel better.

367
00:15:55,240 --> 00:15:57,080
Speaker 3: That's why he's playing this song. He knows what I like.

368
00:15:57,480 --> 00:15:59,240
Speaker 2: He knows that this is gonna make me dance a

369
00:15:59,280 --> 00:16:01,640
Speaker 2: little bit and for get about the embarrassing performance of

370
00:16:01,800 --> 00:16:02,800
Speaker 2: the Clippers in Game seven.

371
00:16:03,520 --> 00:16:06,160
Speaker 10: Were kindred spirits in that, considering how I watched my

372
00:16:06,200 --> 00:16:07,320
Speaker 10: Pistons bow out.

373
00:16:07,120 --> 00:16:11,480
Speaker 2: Too, but again, much better performance from the Pistons than

374
00:16:11,480 --> 00:16:12,440
Speaker 2: the Clippers.

375
00:16:12,040 --> 00:16:14,200
Speaker 4: Maybe, but they went out.

376
00:16:13,840 --> 00:16:15,920
Speaker 10: There was a lot of late game runs where I'm

377
00:16:15,960 --> 00:16:18,520
Speaker 10: just like, oh damn, this is falling apart again, isn't it.

378
00:16:18,600 --> 00:16:21,080
Speaker 3: Sure, But you fought, you fought it.

379
00:16:21,240 --> 00:16:21,440
Speaker 1: Yes.

380
00:16:21,560 --> 00:16:21,720
Speaker 11: Yeah.

381
00:16:22,040 --> 00:16:23,840
Speaker 10: However, you will never tell a Detroit team that they're

382
00:16:23,840 --> 00:16:25,320
Speaker 10: not fighting unless they're the Red Wings.

383
00:16:25,360 --> 00:16:29,240
Speaker 3: And I and I just wish that's what I could Yes,

384
00:16:29,360 --> 00:16:32,240
Speaker 3: I wish that's what I could be saying about the Clippers.

385
00:16:32,360 --> 00:16:35,320
Speaker 3: But no, that is not what I'm saying. Do we

386
00:16:35,360 --> 00:16:39,800
Speaker 3: have Mark on Mark? Are you there? No, we're not.

387
00:16:39,840 --> 00:16:42,360
Speaker 2: We don't Mark yet. Okay, we're getting Mark. We're getting

388
00:16:42,400 --> 00:16:42,960
Speaker 2: Mark Medina.

389
00:16:43,560 --> 00:16:43,960
Speaker 3: All right.

390
00:16:44,800 --> 00:16:49,200
Speaker 2: I know the Clippers sucked, but the Nuggets. Listen, they

391
00:16:49,200 --> 00:16:52,560
Speaker 2: fired their coach expecting to get something out of it,

392
00:16:53,040 --> 00:16:53,760
Speaker 2: and here they are.

393
00:16:53,960 --> 00:16:55,880
Speaker 4: They got something out of it. They got something out

394
00:16:55,880 --> 00:16:58,400
Speaker 4: of it. They fired the coach. From the rumblings around

395
00:16:58,600 --> 00:17:02,040
Speaker 4: you know, the league and the internet that he got

396
00:17:02,080 --> 00:17:04,840
Speaker 4: fired because he wanted to play Russell Westbrook, right, and

397
00:17:04,880 --> 00:17:06,960
Speaker 4: this coach is still playing Russell Westbrook. So it's like

398
00:17:07,000 --> 00:17:11,159
Speaker 4: it's I mean, I think it runs deeper. But in

399
00:17:11,200 --> 00:17:13,640
Speaker 4: the meantime, yes, he had a great, great win coaches,

400
00:17:13,640 --> 00:17:16,399
Speaker 4: but off changed some things up, stuck to his guns,

401
00:17:16,440 --> 00:17:18,080
Speaker 4: and yeah, I mean he's been around for it, I

402
00:17:18,080 --> 00:17:19,760
Speaker 4: think the last five years with that team, so he

403
00:17:19,840 --> 00:17:21,000
Speaker 4: knows those guys absolutely.

404
00:17:21,040 --> 00:17:24,400
Speaker 2: And even though like the Nuggets, you know, there's experience.

405
00:17:24,440 --> 00:17:26,119
Speaker 2: To me goes a long way, like if you've been

406
00:17:26,119 --> 00:17:29,600
Speaker 2: there before, it goes a long way, right, And it's

407
00:17:29,600 --> 00:17:32,879
Speaker 2: gonna be a tough battle for them against Okac, no

408
00:17:33,040 --> 00:17:36,280
Speaker 2: questions asked. But the big reason is, Okay, c has

409
00:17:36,280 --> 00:17:38,080
Speaker 2: been on vacation for how long I.

410
00:17:38,080 --> 00:17:40,479
Speaker 4: Thought they were going fishing. They they've been hanging out.

411
00:17:40,520 --> 00:17:42,600
Speaker 3: They went, they probably went to cantcun and back. They

412
00:17:42,640 --> 00:17:44,240
Speaker 3: went to visit the teams that are fishing.

413
00:17:44,240 --> 00:17:46,480
Speaker 4: They went the Galvelston and came they came back.

414
00:17:46,560 --> 00:17:50,840
Speaker 2: And that's that's gonna be the the tough part for the.

415
00:17:50,920 --> 00:17:54,600
Speaker 3: Nuggets is there. I think they play when tomorrow.

416
00:17:54,200 --> 00:17:57,400
Speaker 2: Two days tomorrow like that's so that's such a quick

417
00:17:57,440 --> 00:18:02,280
Speaker 2: turnaround to go face such a high offensive, high moving

418
00:18:02,320 --> 00:18:03,320
Speaker 2: defensive team.

419
00:18:03,440 --> 00:18:04,280
Speaker 3: So we'll see what happened.

420
00:18:04,320 --> 00:18:06,280
Speaker 4: And I'm gonna say something. Game one, watch out for

421
00:18:06,320 --> 00:18:09,439
Speaker 4: Denver to win, to steal that game. Okay, yeah you.

422
00:18:09,480 --> 00:18:15,360
Speaker 3: Heard Carrie r d Mark Medina. Did you hear that?

423
00:18:16,200 --> 00:18:20,680
Speaker 8: Carrie? I almost throw out my phone.

424
00:18:22,000 --> 00:18:24,280
Speaker 4: That's right, Mark. Hey, Mark, I'm a I'm a firm

425
00:18:24,359 --> 00:18:28,520
Speaker 4: believer in rest versus RUST. I think that's I think

426
00:18:28,560 --> 00:18:31,000
Speaker 4: that's a real thing. And I think okay See hasn't

427
00:18:31,000 --> 00:18:33,640
Speaker 4: been challenged at all either, And for Denver, coming off

428
00:18:33,720 --> 00:18:36,760
Speaker 4: such a competitive series, they'll be even though they could

429
00:18:36,840 --> 00:18:38,840
Speaker 4: be possibly tired, they could have a chance to steal

430
00:18:38,920 --> 00:18:39,280
Speaker 4: game one.

431
00:18:40,520 --> 00:18:43,320
Speaker 3: My my jaw drop too, that's just the bull statement.

432
00:18:44,440 --> 00:18:49,960
Speaker 8: Well carry let me interject her. Yeah, come on, Mark,

433
00:18:50,920 --> 00:18:53,879
Speaker 8: there's always a fair debate about rest versus RUSS. But

434
00:18:54,000 --> 00:18:58,000
Speaker 8: the thunder they've just showed their above and beyond light

435
00:18:58,040 --> 00:19:01,600
Speaker 8: years better than the rest the Western Conference field, So

436
00:19:02,080 --> 00:19:04,760
Speaker 8: shake you'll just out vander Nikole Jokish. There might be

437
00:19:04,840 --> 00:19:09,119
Speaker 8: the back and forth MVP performance and that's entertaining, but

438
00:19:09,840 --> 00:19:13,680
Speaker 8: the thunder steps is just enormous compared to the Nuggets.

439
00:19:13,720 --> 00:19:17,000
Speaker 8: So I think it's gonna be a blowout under then

440
00:19:17,359 --> 00:19:17,879
Speaker 8: all right.

441
00:19:18,440 --> 00:19:22,560
Speaker 3: The contract, Yeah, so a big contrast. I definitely see

442
00:19:22,600 --> 00:19:26,040
Speaker 3: okay See winning it fairly easy. I don't have a blowout.

443
00:19:26,119 --> 00:19:28,720
Speaker 2: I think the Nuggets will will hold in there as

444
00:19:28,800 --> 00:19:30,320
Speaker 2: much as they can, but I do think they're gonna

445
00:19:30,320 --> 00:19:32,399
Speaker 2: be a little bit tied to start the series and

446
00:19:32,440 --> 00:19:33,560
Speaker 2: then they'll get into it, right.

447
00:19:33,960 --> 00:19:36,679
Speaker 3: Uh yeah, Mark, we're gonna one.

448
00:19:36,920 --> 00:19:38,560
Speaker 2: We got to talk about the Clippers real quick, because

449
00:19:38,600 --> 00:19:40,080
Speaker 2: the last time I'm asking you about the Clippers this

450
00:19:40,160 --> 00:19:45,840
Speaker 2: season because they're embarrassing. I really was at a loss

451
00:19:45,880 --> 00:19:49,520
Speaker 2: for words for the lack of basically everything that I

452
00:19:49,560 --> 00:19:52,960
Speaker 2: saw on the court, from effort, energy, heart, ball protection,

453
00:19:53,200 --> 00:19:55,360
Speaker 2: the entire thing really disappointing.

454
00:19:55,760 --> 00:19:58,720
Speaker 3: The question, I guess is like, can the.

455
00:19:58,720 --> 00:20:02,720
Speaker 2: Clippers really make a move for next season to make

456
00:20:02,840 --> 00:20:04,119
Speaker 2: them better?

457
00:20:05,720 --> 00:20:08,240
Speaker 8: Well, monse Won tell me how you really show about

458
00:20:08,240 --> 00:20:11,240
Speaker 8: the Clippers, and you rattled off like every single negative

459
00:20:11,240 --> 00:20:16,159
Speaker 8: thing imaginable and it's all there. Yeah, I think the

460
00:20:16,200 --> 00:20:21,199
Speaker 8: answer question, can they make moves? Yes, but will they

461
00:20:21,240 --> 00:20:24,760
Speaker 8: make enough moves? I don't think so. They've always during

462
00:20:24,800 --> 00:20:28,080
Speaker 8: the Kawhi Leonard era, they've done a good job mostly

463
00:20:28,240 --> 00:20:32,560
Speaker 8: of finding good rotational players that fulfill positional needs to

464
00:20:32,560 --> 00:20:35,800
Speaker 8: give them some roster depth. But if they're gonna make moves,

465
00:20:35,840 --> 00:20:39,200
Speaker 8: they got to part ways with James Harden. I don't

466
00:20:39,200 --> 00:20:42,080
Speaker 8: think it's extreme enough to part ways with Kawhi because

467
00:20:42,160 --> 00:20:45,560
Speaker 8: finally he's been healthy, but Mantz to add on all

468
00:20:45,640 --> 00:20:48,080
Speaker 8: the things that he talked about the Clippers. I think

469
00:20:48,119 --> 00:20:50,520
Speaker 8: in the quiet Leonard era, this is actually the most

470
00:20:50,560 --> 00:20:54,639
Speaker 8: disappointing playoff season, YEP, out of all the disappointing playoff seasons,

471
00:20:54,640 --> 00:20:57,439
Speaker 8: because a lot of all the other ones had to

472
00:20:57,480 --> 00:21:01,159
Speaker 8: do with different injuries come up at the wrong time,

473
00:21:01,680 --> 00:21:05,320
Speaker 8: the bubble was, you know, additional challenges of playing there

474
00:21:05,440 --> 00:21:10,000
Speaker 8: and the chemistry here. They'll excuse they've been better without

475
00:21:10,000 --> 00:21:14,199
Speaker 8: Paul George Kawhi, Leonard's fully healthy, James Harden's fully healthy,

476
00:21:14,240 --> 00:21:17,800
Speaker 8: Aviata Zoobots, Norman Pale raising their game to another level

477
00:21:17,840 --> 00:21:21,320
Speaker 8: in the regular season and this whole first round series

478
00:21:21,320 --> 00:21:24,080
Speaker 8: against the Nuggets, they were showing that this is a

479
00:21:24,119 --> 00:21:27,280
Speaker 8: team that even had a fighter's chance to make a

480
00:21:27,320 --> 00:21:29,680
Speaker 8: deep playoff push. So for them to wet the bed

481
00:21:30,440 --> 00:21:34,520
Speaker 8: in Game seven, getting blown out, it's inexcusable. It's terrible.

482
00:21:34,960 --> 00:21:36,840
Speaker 4: Yeah, I think there's a lot of a lot of

483
00:21:36,880 --> 00:21:40,440
Speaker 4: blame to go around with that performance, But obviously the

484
00:21:41,000 --> 00:21:42,800
Speaker 4: thing that sticks out like a sore thomb is just

485
00:21:42,880 --> 00:21:45,480
Speaker 4: James Harden, right, I mean, for him to carry that

486
00:21:45,560 --> 00:21:47,320
Speaker 4: team the way he did and to bounce back and

487
00:21:47,400 --> 00:21:49,200
Speaker 4: you know, to get this team to where they are

488
00:21:49,240 --> 00:21:51,639
Speaker 4: because he was a big motivating factor in all of that,

489
00:21:51,720 --> 00:21:54,080
Speaker 4: big driving factor in that, and then to come out

490
00:21:54,119 --> 00:21:57,200
Speaker 4: and the narrative be in big games he doesn't show up,

491
00:21:57,480 --> 00:21:59,639
Speaker 4: and then to come out with the performance and only

492
00:21:59,680 --> 00:22:03,200
Speaker 4: should the ball eight times? Just speak times mark eight.

493
00:22:03,560 --> 00:22:08,320
Speaker 8: Yeah, Yeah, it's it's terrible. Collectively, the Clippers deserve a

494
00:22:08,480 --> 00:22:12,160
Speaker 8: large share of blame for their effort overall that. I'm

495
00:22:12,160 --> 00:22:14,720
Speaker 8: with you that James Harden deserves the most of the

496
00:22:14,760 --> 00:22:17,600
Speaker 8: scrutiny because he's one of the star players. Yeah, and

497
00:22:17,960 --> 00:22:20,800
Speaker 8: he already had a bad performance in the Game five

498
00:22:20,880 --> 00:22:23,880
Speaker 8: loss in Denver and ty Lou. You know, there might

499
00:22:23,920 --> 00:22:26,320
Speaker 8: be some element of truth of it saying, hey, blame

500
00:22:26,359 --> 00:22:28,320
Speaker 8: it on me. You know, I need to find the

501
00:22:28,359 --> 00:22:32,040
Speaker 8: right roster combination, got the better spacing. He did that

502
00:22:32,080 --> 00:22:35,840
Speaker 8: in Game six with having Chris daun open, with having

503
00:22:35,840 --> 00:22:38,280
Speaker 8: the defensive O end lineup and then Nicholas betob sorry

504
00:22:38,320 --> 00:22:40,560
Speaker 8: in the second half to get more spacing. He saw

505
00:22:40,640 --> 00:22:43,520
Speaker 8: James Harden be a lot more aggressive, and he was

506
00:22:43,560 --> 00:22:45,920
Speaker 8: talking after the game, Hey, it's all me. I got

507
00:22:45,920 --> 00:22:49,199
Speaker 8: to bring a winner go home, and I'm playing a

508
00:22:49,200 --> 00:22:51,840
Speaker 8: lot of mens in the regular season to his credit,

509
00:22:51,800 --> 00:22:54,159
Speaker 8: and I wondered, Okay, does this prepare you for the

510
00:22:54,240 --> 00:22:56,960
Speaker 8: larger workload ahead? And he said yeah, without a doubt,

511
00:22:57,000 --> 00:23:00,879
Speaker 8: and then two days later he doesn't show up. Very disappointing,

512
00:23:00,960 --> 00:23:05,720
Speaker 8: but not surprising because as you mentioned, dominant regular seasons

513
00:23:05,720 --> 00:23:09,040
Speaker 8: and then a lot of game sevens and wile performances. Overall,

514
00:23:09,640 --> 00:23:12,439
Speaker 8: he either shows signs of fatigue or has an injury.

515
00:23:12,600 --> 00:23:15,920
Speaker 8: So yeah, yeah, it's wild to just wrap your head

516
00:23:15,920 --> 00:23:16,360
Speaker 8: around it.

517
00:23:16,480 --> 00:23:18,639
Speaker 4: Mark a lot to follow up on that team in general?

518
00:23:19,000 --> 00:23:22,159
Speaker 4: Is this safe to say that they don't really have

519
00:23:22,200 --> 00:23:26,360
Speaker 4: an outspoken like leader, a guy that kind of raw

520
00:23:26,480 --> 00:23:28,760
Speaker 4: Rosden or gets them to play more energy, because when

521
00:23:28,760 --> 00:23:30,400
Speaker 4: you watch the game, they look flat the whole time.

522
00:23:30,440 --> 00:23:34,240
Speaker 4: And when I see the two stars seeming like they're

523
00:23:34,480 --> 00:23:36,920
Speaker 4: always a little bit too level headed or too cool,

524
00:23:37,440 --> 00:23:40,560
Speaker 4: like who along with the coach, who's that person on

525
00:23:40,560 --> 00:23:42,600
Speaker 4: that team that usually gets them going?

526
00:23:42,640 --> 00:23:46,119
Speaker 8: If you know, Yeah, that's the thing is that throughout

527
00:23:46,119 --> 00:23:49,320
Speaker 8: this regular season they had a lot of good leadership presence.

528
00:23:49,359 --> 00:23:53,040
Speaker 8: I mean, Kawhi Leonard is never and you know and

529
00:23:53,200 --> 00:23:56,359
Speaker 8: never will be because of who he is, this demonstrative person.

530
00:23:56,400 --> 00:23:58,880
Speaker 8: But a lot of people behind the scenes would talk

531
00:23:58,920 --> 00:24:01,240
Speaker 8: about you know, he's a by example leader because of

532
00:24:01,560 --> 00:24:05,159
Speaker 8: great work ethic and very disciplined, but they also be

533
00:24:05,320 --> 00:24:09,560
Speaker 8: behind the scenes, like he's very funny and he's very genuine.

534
00:24:10,119 --> 00:24:12,240
Speaker 8: You would see during the regular season him and James

535
00:24:12,320 --> 00:24:15,840
Speaker 8: Harden actually even argue on the court, but for the better,

536
00:24:16,000 --> 00:24:19,160
Speaker 8: like it's about calling each other out then they would

537
00:24:19,160 --> 00:24:22,600
Speaker 8: make corrections. You look at some other veterans like Nicholas

538
00:24:22,600 --> 00:24:28,920
Speaker 8: batoumb Norman Pale, they're very positive veteran type players. Tylu

539
00:24:29,160 --> 00:24:32,119
Speaker 8: is one of the most respected coaches in the NBA,

540
00:24:32,320 --> 00:24:36,159
Speaker 8: and so I think this illustrates the disappointment that every

541
00:24:36,160 --> 00:24:38,720
Speaker 8: Clipper fan, including MOSSI, should feel that they have all

542
00:24:38,720 --> 00:24:40,879
Speaker 8: the right ingredients. They just didn't get there you know

543
00:24:40,960 --> 00:24:43,680
Speaker 8: what together at the time that you need to get

544
00:24:43,720 --> 00:24:46,440
Speaker 8: your you know what together. I mean, it's just mind

545
00:24:46,480 --> 00:24:50,199
Speaker 8: bogloint that they lost in this fashion. Especially you know,

546
00:24:50,240 --> 00:24:53,199
Speaker 8: people will say, oh, well, the Denver Nuggets, Nicola Joker's

547
00:24:53,320 --> 00:24:57,000
Speaker 8: MVP candidate and they've been playing really well after the

548
00:24:57,040 --> 00:25:00,359
Speaker 8: coach is firing and all that hogwash. I mean, I

549
00:25:00,359 --> 00:25:02,119
Speaker 8: think that this series had more to do with the

550
00:25:02,119 --> 00:25:07,160
Speaker 8: Clippers sabotaging themselves anything positive with the Nuggets. To say

551
00:25:07,160 --> 00:25:10,399
Speaker 8: that there weren't positive developments but about the Nuggets, but

552
00:25:10,840 --> 00:25:13,640
Speaker 8: anything that they showed still shouldn't have been enough for

553
00:25:13,680 --> 00:25:14,800
Speaker 8: them to win this series.

554
00:25:15,200 --> 00:25:19,040
Speaker 3: All right, Well, the Clippers don't have anybody to come

555
00:25:19,080 --> 00:25:21,919
Speaker 3: and give them energy. But a game seven tonight with

556
00:25:21,960 --> 00:25:24,679
Speaker 3: the Warriors and the Rockets, where each team has a

557
00:25:24,720 --> 00:25:27,640
Speaker 3: guy that will bring the energy out.

558
00:25:27,960 --> 00:25:30,399
Speaker 2: You've got Dylan Brooks on the Houston side, You've got

559
00:25:30,480 --> 00:25:32,320
Speaker 2: Draymond Green on the Warriors side.

560
00:25:32,400 --> 00:25:36,040
Speaker 3: A game seven, what do you predict is the outcome?

561
00:25:37,240 --> 00:25:39,240
Speaker 8: Well, flip the coin. I think at least a game

562
00:25:39,280 --> 00:25:41,960
Speaker 8: seven is going to be competitive on my Clippers, so

563
00:25:42,720 --> 00:25:46,199
Speaker 8: it's gonna be must watch. It could go either way.

564
00:25:46,280 --> 00:25:48,280
Speaker 8: But if I had to give a pick, I would

565
00:25:48,280 --> 00:25:51,520
Speaker 8: give the edge to Houston only because they're at home

566
00:25:51,720 --> 00:25:55,160
Speaker 8: and they've won the last two games. The Warriors, they've

567
00:25:55,200 --> 00:25:57,679
Speaker 8: shown some troubling signs these past two games of not

568
00:25:57,840 --> 00:26:02,879
Speaker 8: dealing well with the Rockets to the cality and defensive intensity.

569
00:26:02,920 --> 00:26:05,840
Speaker 8: But look, you can never rule Steph Curry out. They

570
00:26:05,880 --> 00:26:08,800
Speaker 8: got Jimmy Power as well, Jimmy fur reason. They have

571
00:26:08,920 --> 00:26:13,240
Speaker 8: all that championship experience with Steph, Jerraymond Green and Kavan

572
00:26:13,400 --> 00:26:16,720
Speaker 8: Loui and Steve Kurrs, the head coach that you know

573
00:26:16,760 --> 00:26:19,720
Speaker 8: they win a toss surprising, But if I had to

574
00:26:19,760 --> 00:26:22,160
Speaker 8: take a pick, it's hard, but it would be Houston.

575
00:26:22,680 --> 00:26:24,240
Speaker 4: Mark, I got it. I gotta get at you for

576
00:26:24,320 --> 00:26:26,879
Speaker 4: one second here. We had a We had a conversation

577
00:26:27,200 --> 00:26:29,359
Speaker 4: a few weeks ago and I was talking about my

578
00:26:29,520 --> 00:26:31,880
Speaker 4: main man who was on that team, and we talked

579
00:26:31,920 --> 00:26:34,399
Speaker 4: about Houston not having like a go to score in

580
00:26:34,400 --> 00:26:36,679
Speaker 4: this series and having a chance to really win this series, right,

581
00:26:36,720 --> 00:26:39,920
Speaker 4: And I think that's that played played played out throughout

582
00:26:40,000 --> 00:26:43,280
Speaker 4: most of most of the series until my guy showed up,

583
00:26:43,320 --> 00:26:46,840
Speaker 4: Fred van Fleet. We talked about this, Mark I said,

584
00:26:46,880 --> 00:26:48,720
Speaker 4: they got a guy that who knows who knows how

585
00:26:48,720 --> 00:26:52,560
Speaker 4: to win. He's been awesome in the last three games.

586
00:26:52,600 --> 00:26:55,320
Speaker 4: Do you think that trend will continue or will they

587
00:26:55,359 --> 00:26:57,919
Speaker 4: make somebody else step up and try to beat them

588
00:26:57,920 --> 00:26:58,600
Speaker 4: in this game seven?

589
00:26:59,600 --> 00:27:02,760
Speaker 8: Well, they'll certainly try to force someone else because Fred

590
00:27:02,800 --> 00:27:06,679
Speaker 8: Vanvie is really good in a very positive presence with

591
00:27:06,880 --> 00:27:11,520
Speaker 8: everything you want, scoring, defense, experience, getting guys to play

592
00:27:11,560 --> 00:27:14,560
Speaker 8: the right way. And this is really why the Rockets

593
00:27:14,560 --> 00:27:16,760
Speaker 8: would downplay the fact that the majority of their roster

594
00:27:17,000 --> 00:27:20,000
Speaker 8: had never sniffed the playoffs until then, because Bred van

595
00:27:20,080 --> 00:27:23,160
Speaker 8: Vliet has sniffed the playoffs and he won a championship

596
00:27:23,240 --> 00:27:28,159
Speaker 8: with Toronto and incidentally against the Warriors, and so you know,

597
00:27:28,200 --> 00:27:30,920
Speaker 8: even a Dook is also a very respected head coach.

598
00:27:31,080 --> 00:27:34,040
Speaker 8: He got the Celtics to the finals in twenty twenty two,

599
00:27:34,200 --> 00:27:36,480
Speaker 8: not enough to be the Warriors, but they did test

600
00:27:36,520 --> 00:27:39,920
Speaker 8: them enough to make the Warriors wake up a little bit.

601
00:27:40,119 --> 00:27:43,560
Speaker 8: So yeah, the Warriors can very well win this, but

602
00:27:44,320 --> 00:27:48,639
Speaker 8: they're going to be tested, honestly, in different fashion, but

603
00:27:48,680 --> 00:27:51,679
Speaker 8: the same way that the Rockets almost won Game seven

604
00:27:52,400 --> 00:27:55,080
Speaker 8: in twenty eighteen in the West Finals. Now they self

605
00:27:55,080 --> 00:27:58,879
Speaker 8: imploded with missing twenty seven consecutive threes, but they have

606
00:27:59,000 --> 00:28:01,760
Speaker 8: James Harden, they had Fall, they had a good veteran

607
00:28:01,800 --> 00:28:05,120
Speaker 8: team that was, you know, in serious contention to win

608
00:28:05,160 --> 00:28:08,320
Speaker 8: a title. So different circumstances again, but I think it's

609
00:28:08,320 --> 00:28:11,040
Speaker 8: gonna be one of those games a anything can happen

610
00:28:11,080 --> 00:28:13,000
Speaker 8: and be it is going to go down to the

611
00:28:13,040 --> 00:28:13,600
Speaker 8: final play.

612
00:28:14,280 --> 00:28:18,040
Speaker 2: Mark last one from me watching the Timberwolves have their

613
00:28:18,080 --> 00:28:21,600
Speaker 2: way with the Lakers dismantle.

614
00:28:21,680 --> 00:28:23,480
Speaker 3: I was actually going to say something that can't be

615
00:28:23,520 --> 00:28:27,360
Speaker 3: on the radio, which is why sided watching what they

616
00:28:27,400 --> 00:28:30,800
Speaker 3: did to the Lakers, does your opinion change as to

617
00:28:30,880 --> 00:28:32,199
Speaker 3: who might come out of the West.

618
00:28:34,200 --> 00:28:38,200
Speaker 8: No, I think Minnesota They're they They're a legitimately good team.

619
00:28:38,280 --> 00:28:41,680
Speaker 8: Anthony Edward's growing u you know, with the scoring, three

620
00:28:41,720 --> 00:28:45,680
Speaker 8: point shooting, leadership, passing. You know, we saw Rudy Goberts

621
00:28:45,760 --> 00:28:49,800
Speaker 8: not just a punchline. He's actually good player, that chemistry,

622
00:28:49,920 --> 00:28:54,400
Speaker 8: Julius Randall. But I don't think that they're going to

623
00:28:54,560 --> 00:28:58,400
Speaker 8: all of a sudden challenge or get past Oklahoma City

624
00:28:58,400 --> 00:29:01,640
Speaker 8: and in the presumed West Final, maybe they could beat

625
00:29:01,720 --> 00:29:05,240
Speaker 8: the winner of Houston Golden State, but it didn't dramatically

626
00:29:05,360 --> 00:29:09,400
Speaker 8: change anything. I think while the Wolves certainly earned their

627
00:29:09,440 --> 00:29:12,239
Speaker 8: win against the Lakers, a lot of it also had

628
00:29:12,280 --> 00:29:16,440
Speaker 8: to do with the Lakers' own shortcomings, where they're surprisingly

629
00:29:16,520 --> 00:29:20,360
Speaker 8: strong defense with post Anthony Davis trade did not sustain

630
00:29:20,400 --> 00:29:23,320
Speaker 8: itself with the playoffs, with not having roster death to

631
00:29:23,320 --> 00:29:27,360
Speaker 8: the center spot, just not having consistent wing defenders, and

632
00:29:27,360 --> 00:29:31,840
Speaker 8: then Lebron showing some ages of father time and Luka Doncic,

633
00:29:32,360 --> 00:29:35,560
Speaker 8: you know, having flashes of brilliance and then old bad

634
00:29:35,600 --> 00:29:38,080
Speaker 8: habits of when he was with the Mavericks, when they

635
00:29:38,120 --> 00:29:41,080
Speaker 8: weren't competitive and just having you know, the ball in

636
00:29:41,080 --> 00:29:44,680
Speaker 8: his hands too long into the shot talks. So no,

637
00:29:44,840 --> 00:29:47,600
Speaker 8: didn't change anything. And I think with the Lakers, the

638
00:29:47,680 --> 00:29:50,120
Speaker 8: interesting part about this is when they made the trade

639
00:29:50,120 --> 00:29:53,800
Speaker 8: with Luka Doncic, not only was it monumental and lopsided,

640
00:29:53,880 --> 00:29:56,719
Speaker 8: but in the short term there was a sense that

641
00:29:57,000 --> 00:29:59,080
Speaker 8: they could take a step back. But this is more

642
00:29:59,120 --> 00:30:01,480
Speaker 8: of the longer term play. But I think there was

643
00:30:01,520 --> 00:30:05,200
Speaker 8: at least an internal expectation that their playoff run would

644
00:30:05,320 --> 00:30:07,760
Speaker 8: end a lot later than it did last season. And

645
00:30:07,840 --> 00:30:10,960
Speaker 8: it was the exact same thing last season, different circumstances,

646
00:30:11,280 --> 00:30:14,720
Speaker 8: but they lost the first round in five games to Denver,

647
00:30:14,960 --> 00:30:18,200
Speaker 8: and so I think under that under that viewpoint, this

648
00:30:18,360 --> 00:30:20,640
Speaker 8: is a disappointing way to finish the postseason. If it

649
00:30:20,720 --> 00:30:23,840
Speaker 8: was second round or longer, much different conversations.

650
00:30:24,320 --> 00:30:26,600
Speaker 4: Mark last one from me before we let you get

651
00:30:26,600 --> 00:30:30,400
Speaker 4: out of here. I think the Lakers situation is definitely

652
00:30:30,480 --> 00:30:33,000
Speaker 4: one that was made for the future. I felt when

653
00:30:33,040 --> 00:30:37,360
Speaker 4: it happened. But there was a story about Luca meeting

654
00:30:37,360 --> 00:30:40,840
Speaker 4: with Rob Polinka and JJ Redick for dinner at Craigs

655
00:30:40,840 --> 00:30:44,640
Speaker 4: and obviously discussing probably contract stuff, but roster stuff. What

656
00:30:44,680 --> 00:30:47,560
Speaker 4: do you see helping get this team to the point

657
00:30:47,600 --> 00:30:50,360
Speaker 4: where they are really a real contender to come out

658
00:30:50,400 --> 00:30:52,320
Speaker 4: the West and possibly win a championship.

659
00:30:53,360 --> 00:30:56,240
Speaker 8: Yeah. Well, the things that are clear from Rob Polinka's

660
00:30:56,280 --> 00:30:59,040
Speaker 8: press conference with JJ Reddick Royer the sweet time attended

661
00:30:59,160 --> 00:31:02,040
Speaker 8: is that you know, even though technically Lebron, James and

662
00:31:02,080 --> 00:31:05,560
Speaker 8: Lukadagis didn't talk about what their future entails with the Lakers,

663
00:31:05,600 --> 00:31:09,240
Speaker 8: they're coming back, so that's not changing. Rob Polinka was

664
00:31:09,400 --> 00:31:12,640
Speaker 8: very strong in saying they're committed to Austin Reeves and

665
00:31:12,800 --> 00:31:17,400
Speaker 8: outside even with his postseason struggle. So outside a superstar

666
00:31:17,560 --> 00:31:22,200
Speaker 8: trade with Giannis or someone else unexpectedly being available, I

667
00:31:22,200 --> 00:31:24,240
Speaker 8: don't think that they're going to trade Austin. So I

668
00:31:24,280 --> 00:31:26,360
Speaker 8: think what they're going to do is try to find

669
00:31:26,360 --> 00:31:29,640
Speaker 8: the right ross around those three players darts with gain

670
00:31:29,680 --> 00:31:32,920
Speaker 8: of center and either free agency or in a trade.

671
00:31:33,360 --> 00:31:35,800
Speaker 8: It's not going to be blockbuster trades, So I think

672
00:31:35,800 --> 00:31:41,200
Speaker 8: of guys like Brook Lopez or Miles Hearn. Those I've

673
00:31:41,320 --> 00:31:44,920
Speaker 8: seen if there's any other better wing defenders in what

674
00:31:44,960 --> 00:31:47,440
Speaker 8: they already have. They do have some good wing defenders,

675
00:31:47,560 --> 00:31:51,160
Speaker 8: just not quite good enough. So those are the main things,

676
00:31:51,160 --> 00:31:53,840
Speaker 8: and then the other thing is I don't think this

677
00:31:54,000 --> 00:31:58,200
Speaker 8: excuses the Lakers shortcomings, but you know, another year of

678
00:31:58,440 --> 00:32:02,240
Speaker 8: chemistry with Lebron, Luca and Austin like that'll move in

679
00:32:02,240 --> 00:32:05,440
Speaker 8: a better direction. But I would argue they should have

680
00:32:05,480 --> 00:32:09,240
Speaker 8: had enough talent to overcome that lack of chemistry to

681
00:32:09,240 --> 00:32:10,840
Speaker 8: at least get past the first round.

682
00:32:11,120 --> 00:32:12,640
Speaker 3: Absolutely, I agree with you.

683
00:32:12,800 --> 00:32:16,200
Speaker 2: Mark Medina or NBA Insider, you can find him on

684
00:32:16,360 --> 00:32:19,960
Speaker 2: AX at Mark g Underscore Madina. Thank you, Mark, even

685
00:32:20,000 --> 00:32:22,920

700
00:33:01,040 --> 00:33:04,000
Speaker 4: so much, not so much. You know, Denver don't have

701
00:33:04,040 --> 00:33:05,160
Speaker 4: a bench manna need a bit.

702
00:33:05,640 --> 00:33:07,000
Speaker 3: That's exactly right.

703
00:33:07,440 --> 00:33:08,440
Speaker 4: Major League Baseball.

704
00:33:08,480 --> 00:33:10,960
Speaker 12: We got some bad weather yesterday really was bad, so

705
00:33:11,000 --> 00:33:13,800
Speaker 12: we had a game delayed. We're waiting for a first

706
00:33:13,800 --> 00:33:16,880
Speaker 12: pitch of the second game of the Mets Cardinals doubleheader,

707
00:33:17,080 --> 00:33:17,880
Speaker 12: which was reached.

708
00:33:17,680 --> 00:33:19,760
Speaker 4: The other from yesterday. That's in about half an hour

709
00:33:20,160 --> 00:33:21,400
Speaker 4: rain delay in Chicago.

710
00:33:21,440 --> 00:33:24,120
Speaker 12: As the White Sox have a five to four lead

711
00:33:24,160 --> 00:33:26,840
Speaker 12: over the Astros, Giants even five to one lead over

712
00:33:26,840 --> 00:33:27,880
Speaker 12: the Rockies in the top.

713
00:33:27,760 --> 00:33:29,920
Speaker 4: Of the seventh, top of the sixth, then ain't carry.

714
00:33:29,960 --> 00:33:32,680
Speaker 12: Carpenter just hit a home run to give the Tigers

715
00:33:32,720 --> 00:33:34,600
Speaker 12: a It was a three run home run to give

716
00:33:34,640 --> 00:33:37,520
Speaker 12: the Tigers an eight to nothing lead over the Angels

717
00:33:37,680 --> 00:33:40,360
Speaker 12: bottom of the fifty in eighty, Nationals and Reds tied

718
00:33:40,520 --> 00:33:44,000
Speaker 12: one apiece. The Royals Haven't beat the Orioles eleven to

719
00:33:44,080 --> 00:33:46,960
Speaker 12: six earlier today. Orioles hit seven home runs in that game.

720
00:33:47,160 --> 00:33:49,600
Speaker 12: Twins beat the Red Sox five to four. Padres over

721
00:33:49,680 --> 00:33:53,480
Speaker 12: Pirates for nothing. The Rays beat the Yankees seven to five.

722
00:33:53,560 --> 00:33:55,600
Speaker 12: Guardians came from behind and beat the Blue Jays five

723
00:33:55,640 --> 00:33:58,520
Speaker 12: to four. A's beat the Marlins three to two and

724
00:33:58,640 --> 00:34:01,560
Speaker 12: extra ending. The Diamondbacks beat the Phillies eleven and nine.

725
00:34:01,560 --> 00:34:04,840
Speaker 12: Phillies a home team there, Brewers four nothing over the Cobbs,

726
00:34:04,880 --> 00:34:07,560
Speaker 12: and the Rangers eight and off eight to one over

727
00:34:07,720 --> 00:34:11,439
Speaker 12: the Mariners. He just waited a couple minutes away from

728
00:34:11,480 --> 00:34:14,920
Speaker 12: game one of these conference semi finals between the Pacers

729
00:34:14,960 --> 00:34:17,920
Speaker 12: and the Cavaliers that tips at about fifteen, and then

730
00:34:18,000 --> 00:34:20,440
Speaker 12: later we'll see at eight thirty Eastern the Rockets and

731
00:34:20,480 --> 00:34:21,080
Speaker 12: the Warriors.

732
00:34:22,320 --> 00:34:24,480
Speaker 4: You know, Moncie, is this still the two greatest words

733
00:34:24,480 --> 00:34:25,279

Speaker 2: He's carry talking about who really the Clippers needed off

739
00:34:41,200 --> 00:34:44,759
Speaker 2: the bench to put to light a fire up their butts.

740
00:34:45,040 --> 00:34:46,319
Speaker 3: He was not on our team, though he was on

741
00:34:46,360 --> 00:34:47,440

Speaker 3: All Right, as we put.

757
00:35:27,719 --> 00:35:33,320
Speaker 2: A bow on this Clippers embarrassing performance against the Denver Nuggets,

758
00:35:33,560 --> 00:35:37,240
Speaker 2: there is one guy that we have to definitely shout

759
00:35:37,239 --> 00:35:38,440
Speaker 2: out give credit to that.

760
00:35:38,320 --> 00:35:40,400
Speaker 3: You and I have always been fans of.

761
00:35:40,520 --> 00:35:45,239
Speaker 2: Yep, we are mega supporters of a polarizing player. You

762
00:35:45,280 --> 00:35:47,400
Speaker 2: may have heard of him, Russell Westbrook.

763
00:35:48,360 --> 00:35:50,200
Speaker 3: You may have heard of him. You may have, you

764
00:35:50,280 --> 00:35:52,880
Speaker 3: may have, and so thank you.

765
00:35:53,440 --> 00:35:58,920
Speaker 2: Russell Westbrook gets criticized for doing too much and sometimes

766
00:36:00,160 --> 00:36:04,080
Speaker 2: getting out of control in certain situations when it matters

767
00:36:04,080 --> 00:36:04,840
Speaker 2: in the fourth quarter.

768
00:36:04,880 --> 00:36:07,040
Speaker 3: But at the same time, he was a hero for the.

769
00:36:07,000 --> 00:36:10,640
Speaker 2: Clippers and we welcomed him with open arms after his

770
00:36:10,719 --> 00:36:16,799
Speaker 2: debacle with the Lakers, and he really hustles every play like.

771
00:36:16,960 --> 00:36:19,000
Speaker 4: And played amazingly in the playoffs last year.

772
00:36:20,000 --> 00:36:22,759
Speaker 3: Yes, there was one game that we want because of him.

773
00:36:22,840 --> 00:36:25,399
Speaker 3: Single handedly, he had a block of steal, a dunk,

774
00:36:25,400 --> 00:36:27,280
Speaker 3: I don't even know all of it in like ninety seconds.

775
00:36:27,360 --> 00:36:31,239
Speaker 2: Right absolutely after the game, he kind of had this

776
00:36:31,320 --> 00:36:34,480
Speaker 2: to say about his style of play.

777
00:36:35,120 --> 00:36:37,120
Speaker 13: You know, as as much as people may not think,

778
00:36:37,200 --> 00:36:39,800
Speaker 13: I'm very smart and I understand the game, I understand

779
00:36:39,800 --> 00:36:44,360
Speaker 13: what's going on. So I am thinking and I also

780
00:36:44,719 --> 00:36:48,520
Speaker 13: not I just just a force, man. I think it's

781
00:36:48,800 --> 00:36:53,000
Speaker 13: you know, my ability to be able to be a

782
00:36:53,040 --> 00:36:55,560
Speaker 13: force of nature on the floor is what I pride

783
00:36:55,560 --> 00:36:57,920
Speaker 13: myself phone. So whatever that looks like, it may be

784
00:36:58,000 --> 00:37:00,600
Speaker 13: a turnover, it may be a midshot, but it may

785
00:37:00,600 --> 00:37:03,839
Speaker 13: be a steal, maybe a dunk, maybe a mystery, maybe

786
00:37:03,920 --> 00:37:04,560
Speaker 13: a may three.

787
00:37:05,000 --> 00:37:06,920
Speaker 4: It's gonna be all of that. It's gonna be everything.

788
00:37:07,160 --> 00:37:09,080
Speaker 13: So you just take it, take it what O outcomes,

789
00:37:09,120 --> 00:37:11,080
Speaker 13: and whatever happens, you go with it.

790
00:37:11,160 --> 00:37:14,640
Speaker 4: And I always been like that. I love that absolutely.

791
00:37:14,920 --> 00:37:16,759
Speaker 4: I mean, you gotta take your own power back, right

792
00:37:17,400 --> 00:37:20,960
Speaker 4: And at this point, obviously the narrative is out on

793
00:37:21,040 --> 00:37:24,799
Speaker 4: him that he's gonna make some mistakes, yep, and that's

794
00:37:24,800 --> 00:37:27,520
Speaker 4: gonna be glorified because it's the Internet. But nobody talked

795
00:37:27,520 --> 00:37:28,919
Speaker 4: about the good stuff that he does, and I think

796
00:37:28,960 --> 00:37:33,279
Speaker 4: this encapsulates him to the tute like he's gonna he's

797
00:37:33,280 --> 00:37:35,759
Speaker 4: gonna hustle, he's gonna score some points, he's gonna dunk,

798
00:37:35,800 --> 00:37:38,239
Speaker 4: he's gonna hit one three. But he's also going to

799
00:37:38,320 --> 00:37:42,319
Speaker 4: shoot a shot that he shouldn't shoot under ten minutes left,

800
00:37:42,320 --> 00:37:43,600
Speaker 4: I mean ten seconds left in the game. The other

801
00:37:43,600 --> 00:37:46,239
Speaker 4: team's gonna score and win the game. Like all those

802
00:37:46,280 --> 00:37:48,960
Speaker 4: things are the Russell Westbrook experiment. But the one thing

803
00:37:49,000 --> 00:37:52,319
Speaker 4: you can never take away from him is what you

804
00:37:52,360 --> 00:37:55,160
Speaker 4: talked about with the Clippers earlier, coming out flat. That's

805
00:37:55,160 --> 00:37:56,200
Speaker 4: never happening never.

806
00:37:56,239 --> 00:37:58,600
Speaker 2: It doesn't matter is it game seven of the season

807
00:37:58,680 --> 00:38:01,160
Speaker 2: or is it game seven in the playoffs, It doesn't matter.

808
00:38:01,480 --> 00:38:04,760
Speaker 2: He is going to play like it's his last chance

809
00:38:04,800 --> 00:38:06,520
Speaker 2: to play on a basketball court.

810
00:38:06,680 --> 00:38:08,239
Speaker 3: And I've always appreciated that.

811
00:38:08,320 --> 00:38:10,919
Speaker 2: I've always said I will take if I'm picking a team,

812
00:38:11,000 --> 00:38:15,120
Speaker 2: I will take Russell Westbrook on my team any day, absolutely.

813
00:38:15,480 --> 00:38:17,640
Speaker 2: And I think it's great what he said because he's

814
00:38:17,760 --> 00:38:19,600
Speaker 2: he's like, I hear what you guys are all saying,

815
00:38:19,880 --> 00:38:23,560
Speaker 2: and it is true, it is true, but it's worth it.

816
00:38:23,560 --> 00:38:24,279
Speaker 4: It is worth it.

817
00:38:24,320 --> 00:38:27,080
Speaker 2: To have him on your team, not even just from

818
00:38:27,080 --> 00:38:29,600
Speaker 2: the physical performance, but he's.

819
00:38:29,480 --> 00:38:32,520
Speaker 3: Going he's going to get you excited. He's going to

820
00:38:32,600 --> 00:38:33,240
Speaker 3: get you excited.

821
00:38:33,280 --> 00:38:35,760
Speaker 2: Even if he hangs from that dunk and gets a technical,

822
00:38:36,040 --> 00:38:37,520
Speaker 2: He's going to get you excited.

823
00:38:38,000 --> 00:38:41,960
Speaker 3: He does not care, and I'm happy for him. I

824
00:38:42,640 --> 00:38:45,200
Speaker 3: thought he kind of like said like he kind of

825
00:38:45,239 --> 00:38:46,719
Speaker 3: said something at the end of the game of like

826
00:38:47,000 --> 00:38:48,799
Speaker 3: implying that the Clippers didn't want him, and it's like,

827
00:38:49,200 --> 00:38:51,040
Speaker 3: I hope he realizes.

828
00:38:50,600 --> 00:38:53,080
Speaker 2: How much the Clippers really loved him. We welcomed him

829
00:38:53,080 --> 00:38:55,080
Speaker 2: with open arms and there's no hard feelings.

830
00:38:55,400 --> 00:38:56,160
Speaker 4: I'm all for you.

831
00:38:56,239 --> 00:38:58,920
Speaker 3: It's crazy that you played so well against the Clippers,

832
00:38:58,920 --> 00:39:01,319
Speaker 3: because against the again, the Clipper curse has to be real.

833
00:39:01,520 --> 00:39:04,800
Speaker 3: In order for Russell Westbrook to shoot over forty percent

834
00:39:04,800 --> 00:39:08,919
Speaker 3: from the three point line. I knows the Clippers tell

835
00:39:08,920 --> 00:39:12,040
Speaker 3: me the Clipper curses is real. There's no I can't

836
00:39:12,280 --> 00:39:14,120
Speaker 3: like literally losing in.

837
00:39:14,080 --> 00:39:18,000
Speaker 2: A way to Russell Westbrook is poetic and sad.

838
00:39:18,080 --> 00:39:20,279
Speaker 4: He walked off the court and say, you chose Chris Dunn.

839
00:39:20,840 --> 00:39:22,560
Speaker 3: He said, that's what.

840
00:39:22,280 --> 00:39:23,480
Speaker 4: That's what he implies, and it's like.

841
00:39:23,520 --> 00:39:26,719
Speaker 2: Yeah, we for for other reasons, but it's like, we

842
00:39:26,800 --> 00:39:28,960
Speaker 2: could have used you on the bench man, We could

843
00:39:29,000 --> 00:39:32,480
Speaker 2: have used you in that fourth quarter. And they're lucky

844
00:39:32,480 --> 00:39:33,440
Speaker 2: to have Russell Westbrook.

845
00:39:33,520 --> 00:39:36,040
Speaker 4: One team had Russell Westbrook didn't and didn't come out

846
00:39:36,080 --> 00:39:38,400
Speaker 4: flat in the game seven. You you, I think we

847
00:39:38,440 --> 00:39:39,920
Speaker 4: all know who that team was. It was Denver.

848
00:39:40,000 --> 00:39:41,880
Speaker 2: It was Denver, and last year we never came out

849
00:39:41,880 --> 00:39:43,719
Speaker 2: flat when he was playing for US in the playoffs.

850
00:39:43,920 --> 00:39:45,279
Speaker 3: So Russell Westbrook, get out there.

851
00:39:45,320 --> 00:39:48,080
Speaker 2: You were worth the squeeze were you were awesome And

852
00:39:48,560 --> 00:39:50,120
Speaker 2: I'm hoping for the best.

853
00:39:50,239 --> 00:39:52,360
Speaker 3: You know what I'm saying. If Denver wins, I'm happy

854
00:39:52,400 --> 00:39:53,840
Speaker 3: Westbrook gets a ring.

855
00:39:53,760 --> 00:39:55,520
Speaker 4: And he gets to beat his old team. Okay, see,

856
00:39:55,520 --> 00:39:56,120
Speaker 4: which would be.

857
00:39:56,280 --> 00:39:59,280
Speaker 3: Even another story poetic. I mean, it's Fox Sports Sunday.

858
00:39:59,360 --> 00:40:03,800
Speaker 3: Don't go anyw That is right, Happy Sunday. Everybody welcome.

00:40:08,320 --> 00:40:12,200
Speaker 3: Day in the NBA. I mean, I already just ripped

862
00:40:12,200 --> 00:40:13,000
Speaker 3: my clippers apar.

863
00:40:13,239 --> 00:40:14,799
Speaker 2: If you want to listen to that, you're gonna have

864
00:40:14,800 --> 00:40:16,640
Speaker 2: to tune into the podcast so you can listen to

865
00:40:16,719 --> 00:40:21,160
Speaker 2: our one, because we are gonna talk a little NBA

866
00:40:21,239 --> 00:40:22,160
Speaker 2: in this hour, but we're.

867
00:40:22,000 --> 00:40:24,879
Speaker 3: Actually gonna hit the NFL. In fact, the NBA though,

868
00:40:24,960 --> 00:40:26,680
Speaker 3: is starting right now. Carrie.

869
00:40:26,760 --> 00:40:30,960
Speaker 2: Game one Pacers Cavaliers. Know Darius Garland for Cleveland in

870
00:40:31,000 --> 00:40:33,080
Speaker 2: this one. Still day yeah, still day to day on

871
00:40:33,120 --> 00:40:34,719
Speaker 2: that toe injury that he's got going on.

872
00:40:35,280 --> 00:40:37,239
Speaker 3: How much of a factor do you think that's gonna be?

873
00:40:37,480 --> 00:40:39,560
Speaker 4: It will? I mean, this this round is different than

874
00:40:39,600 --> 00:40:41,880
Speaker 4: the first roun second round is a little bit more competitive.

875
00:40:41,920 --> 00:40:45,719
Speaker 4: I actually had the Pacers keeping this game really close

876
00:40:45,719 --> 00:40:46,480
Speaker 4: today anyway, So.

877
00:40:46,600 --> 00:40:49,440
Speaker 2: Okay, so even more so now without Darius Garlett exactly,

878
00:40:49,600 --> 00:40:51,680
Speaker 2: do you think calvs win the series?

879
00:40:53,760 --> 00:40:58,240
Speaker 4: Yeah, but there there's a little bit of pause. Yeah,

880
00:40:58,280 --> 00:41:00,719
Speaker 4: and it's because Rick Carlisle, so the head coach with

881
00:41:00,760 --> 00:41:03,520
Speaker 4: the Pacers, is really good at individual matchups for you know,

882
00:41:03,640 --> 00:41:05,600
Speaker 4: series by series. I saw a lot of them in Dallas.

883
00:41:05,640 --> 00:41:08,040
Speaker 4: Obviously it's the right coast there, but just like game

884
00:41:08,080 --> 00:41:11,160
Speaker 4: plan specific stuff, he'll have those guys ready to play

885
00:41:11,160 --> 00:41:13,080
Speaker 4: in any end. The Pacers have talent and they can

886
00:41:13,080 --> 00:41:15,640
Speaker 4: score with Cleveland, so you know, it's gonna be a

887
00:41:15,640 --> 00:41:16,160
Speaker 4: fun series.

888
00:41:16,200 --> 00:41:17,919
Speaker 2: I think I think it's gonna be a fun series too.

889
00:41:18,000 --> 00:41:20,600
Speaker 2: I think they're all gonna be close games. I say

890
00:41:20,680 --> 00:41:24,000
Speaker 2: Cleveland wins it though in maybe six, but they're all

891
00:41:24,040 --> 00:41:25,080
Speaker 2: gonna be close games.

892
00:41:25,400 --> 00:41:27,520
Speaker 3: And it's just gonna be because I do think.

893
00:41:27,360 --> 00:41:32,000
Speaker 2: The Cavaliers are better as a team than the Pacers,

894
00:41:32,040 --> 00:41:33,640
Speaker 2: just even on paper and just like when you look

895
00:41:33,680 --> 00:41:35,480
Speaker 2: at them, right, but the Pacers are not.

896
00:41:35,400 --> 00:41:37,080
Speaker 3: Gonna make it easy. They're not gonna make it easy.

897
00:41:37,120 --> 00:41:39,759
Speaker 2: And I agree, I think Carlisle is good at adjusting,

898
00:41:40,040 --> 00:41:43,279
Speaker 2: and the playoffs is about adjustments. Tell JJ Redick that

899
00:41:44,000 --> 00:41:45,960
Speaker 2: it's just about adjustments and like.

900
00:41:45,960 --> 00:41:48,759
Speaker 3: Figuring it out from one it's almost even like from

901
00:41:49,719 --> 00:41:52,400
Speaker 3: one quarter to the next, Like it doesn't have to

902
00:41:52,400 --> 00:41:53,880
Speaker 3: stay the same the whole game. You just have to

903
00:41:53,880 --> 00:41:55,439
Speaker 3: be able to adjust on the fly.

904
00:41:56,600 --> 00:41:58,799
Speaker 2: Spurts happen, you know, scoring spurts up and down, but

905
00:41:58,880 --> 00:42:00,000
Speaker 2: like you have to be able to adjus.

906
00:42:00,160 --> 00:42:02,120
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, like just think about this in Rick

907
00:42:02,160 --> 00:42:05,719
Speaker 4: Carlos when he's with Dallas in those Dallas Clippers series

908
00:42:05,760 --> 00:42:07,120
Speaker 4: that they had back to back years where you know

909
00:42:07,120 --> 00:42:09,719
Speaker 4: Clippers would a better team, but Luca was great and

910
00:42:09,760 --> 00:42:12,120
Speaker 4: you know KP was playing okay at that time. But

911
00:42:12,480 --> 00:42:15,520
Speaker 4: there was one game in series. It was Game three,

912
00:42:16,120 --> 00:42:18,960
Speaker 4: and the Clippers were beating up Dallas really, I mean

913
00:42:19,280 --> 00:42:22,200
Speaker 4: a lot inside, and so Carlaut went with a double

914
00:42:22,200 --> 00:42:28,439
Speaker 4: big lineup with Bobon Mariyanovich and like Boban barely played

915
00:42:28,480 --> 00:42:31,240
Speaker 4: during the regular season, but that game the Clippers fits.

916
00:42:31,280 --> 00:42:33,839
Speaker 4: But just stuff like that has to be.

917
00:42:33,760 --> 00:42:35,759
Speaker 3: Done again, adjustments. You got to think on the fly

918
00:42:35,840 --> 00:42:40,600
Speaker 3: of Bobon. It's that guy. Everyone loved him. If he scored,

919
00:42:40,680 --> 00:42:43,080
Speaker 3: everyone cheered. It didn't matter if he wasn't on your team.

920
00:42:43,200 --> 00:42:45,200
Speaker 4: No, like he was some kid that can't play like

921
00:42:46,360 --> 00:42:48,359
Speaker 4: he can play. That's the part about it.

922
00:42:48,400 --> 00:42:48,719
Speaker 3: He doesn't.

923
00:42:49,000 --> 00:42:51,239
Speaker 2: He just touches the rim. He just touches the room

924
00:42:51,280 --> 00:42:53,400
Speaker 2: with his hand. I can't even imagine that, you know

925
00:42:53,440 --> 00:42:56,800
Speaker 2: what I'm saying. I wonder do I reach his belly button?

926
00:42:57,480 --> 00:42:57,760
Speaker 4: No?

927
00:42:58,000 --> 00:43:01,400
Speaker 3: No, I don't even reach his bell. If you think, oh, no,

928
00:43:01,560 --> 00:43:03,279
Speaker 3: I gotta find I gotta go find him. Was I

929
00:43:03,320 --> 00:43:05,120
Speaker 3: gonna get a picture with him? All right?

930
00:43:05,160 --> 00:43:07,040
Speaker 2: We'll keep you guys updated on this game one of

931
00:43:07,080 --> 00:43:09,080
Speaker 2: the Eastern Conference on my finals between the Pacers and

932
00:43:09,080 --> 00:43:11,120
Speaker 2: the Cavs, which is gonna tip off. And again no

933
00:43:11,280 --> 00:43:13,759
Speaker 2: Darius Garland for Cleveland. He continues to be day to

934
00:43:13,840 --> 00:43:18,200
Speaker 2: day on that toe injury. The NFL Draft over. Now

935
00:43:18,200 --> 00:43:23,000
Speaker 2: we're looking forward to the new season, carry and Matthew

936
00:43:23,080 --> 00:43:25,880
Speaker 2: Stafford and the Rams, you know, getting ready to do something.

937
00:43:25,960 --> 00:43:28,120
Speaker 2: Remember last year there were so many questions with the Rams,

938
00:43:28,840 --> 00:43:30,719
Speaker 2: whether they were gonna kind of start over, Are they

939
00:43:30,719 --> 00:43:33,719
Speaker 2: gonna trade I was gonna say, Cooper flyg that's not.

940
00:43:33,800 --> 00:43:37,279
Speaker 3: Right, whether they were gonna trade super Cup because I

941
00:43:37,320 --> 00:43:37,680
Speaker 3: was also I.

942
00:43:37,680 --> 00:43:41,200
Speaker 2: Guess the other Cooper I had in my head, Cooper Rush.

943
00:43:41,400 --> 00:43:43,239
Speaker 2: That was the other one I was about to sounds like,

944
00:43:43,280 --> 00:43:46,320
Speaker 2: that's not it. A lot of Coopers, Thank you, Cooper Cup.

945
00:43:46,719 --> 00:43:49,600
Speaker 2: And then discussions with Matthew Stafford maybe being traded. They

946
00:43:49,680 --> 00:43:52,279
Speaker 2: let him go talk to other teams, They end up

947
00:43:52,280 --> 00:43:54,600
Speaker 2: getting an extension, they end up playing the.

948
00:43:54,560 --> 00:43:57,000
Speaker 3: Last half of the season really well.

949
00:43:57,040 --> 00:43:59,200
Speaker 2: The Rams, like you were just like, where did this

950
00:43:59,400 --> 00:44:03,040
Speaker 2: come from? But head coach Sean McVay had some things

951
00:44:03,080 --> 00:44:06,480
Speaker 2: to say about his quarterback that I'm a little surprised about.

952
00:44:07,239 --> 00:44:09,359
Speaker 11: I think he came out of this season feeling really

953
00:44:09,400 --> 00:44:11,759
Speaker 11: good physically, and one of the things that I think

954
00:44:11,840 --> 00:44:13,799
Speaker 11: is a tremendous credit to him, Adam. You look at

955
00:44:13,800 --> 00:44:16,000
Speaker 11: the playoff games that he's played in with us, the

956
00:44:16,040 --> 00:44:17,960
Speaker 11: four his first year where he goes four to zero,

957
00:44:18,040 --> 00:44:20,000
Speaker 11: leads us to a super Bowl. You go to the

958
00:44:20,040 --> 00:44:22,279
Speaker 11: twenty three season, he did everything in his power to

959
00:44:22,280 --> 00:44:24,280
Speaker 11: try to will us to a victory against an excellent

960
00:44:24,320 --> 00:44:27,640
Speaker 11: Detroit football team in twenty three, and then this past

961
00:44:27,719 --> 00:44:30,480
Speaker 11: year he balls against Minnesota and he does this thing

962
00:44:30,520 --> 00:44:33,799
Speaker 11: against Philadelphia, and so we have a chance with him

963
00:44:33,800 --> 00:44:37,120
Speaker 11: every time he's at the switch, and love working with him,

964
00:44:37,239 --> 00:44:39,239
Speaker 11: and I think he's got he can play as long

965
00:44:39,280 --> 00:44:42,360
Speaker 11: as he wants. But fortunately, I'm hoping it's a couple

966
00:44:42,400 --> 00:44:43,239
Speaker 11: more years.

967
00:44:43,640 --> 00:44:47,320
Speaker 7: A couple of more years from Matthew Stafford thirty seven

968
00:44:47,400 --> 00:44:47,879
Speaker 7: years old.

969
00:44:50,000 --> 00:44:52,040
Speaker 3: I just want.

970
00:44:53,640 --> 00:44:58,040
Speaker 7: Calling Cap here, cap cap on Sean McVay. It's like,

971
00:44:58,080 --> 00:44:58,759
Speaker 7: I get what you're saying.

972
00:44:58,760 --> 00:45:01,359
Speaker 2: You're not gonna throw your your quarterback under the bus,

973
00:45:01,360 --> 00:45:02,719
Speaker 2: and that's not even what I'm saying. But you're not

974
00:45:02,719 --> 00:45:05,439
Speaker 2: gonna say like, oh, Matthew Stafford only has a year left.

975
00:45:05,480 --> 00:45:07,080
Speaker 3: I get you're not going to say all that, but

976
00:45:07,160 --> 00:45:07,960
Speaker 3: he can't be real.

977
00:45:08,080 --> 00:45:11,320
Speaker 2: Matthew Stafford, not just age, has gone through some injuries

978
00:45:11,760 --> 00:45:14,680
Speaker 2: and as not the most mobile quarterback.

979
00:45:14,800 --> 00:45:17,879
Speaker 4: Right, one hit might do it.

980
00:45:18,040 --> 00:45:19,840
Speaker 3: One hard hit might do it right.

981
00:45:19,920 --> 00:45:24,520
Speaker 2: And so what do you think is a realistic expectation

982
00:45:24,719 --> 00:45:27,880
Speaker 2: of Matthew Stafford and the Rams who did not draft

983
00:45:27,880 --> 00:45:29,640
Speaker 2: a quarterback in this NFL draft.

984
00:45:29,719 --> 00:45:31,279
Speaker 4: Yeah, I think he has two more good years left

985
00:45:32,160 --> 00:45:34,680
Speaker 4: seeing him in the playoffs this year. Obviously, during the

986
00:45:34,680 --> 00:45:36,960
Speaker 4: season was up and down, some injuries, but those injuries

987
00:45:37,040 --> 00:45:39,200
Speaker 4: to the core around them as well. So you know,

988
00:45:39,239 --> 00:45:41,120
Speaker 4: I could see why they started slow, but as the

989
00:45:41,160 --> 00:45:43,279
Speaker 4: season progress he played well. He had a you know,

990
00:45:44,360 --> 00:45:46,480
Speaker 4: a really good, a good season, and then in the

991
00:45:46,480 --> 00:45:48,279
Speaker 4: playoffs it was really good. We got to see the

992
00:45:48,280 --> 00:45:50,840
Speaker 4: best of them. And so what have you done for

993
00:45:50,920 --> 00:45:54,200
Speaker 4: me lately lately? As it's really really darn good. So

994
00:45:54,360 --> 00:45:57,000
Speaker 4: I can see him planning two more years that team.

995
00:45:57,440 --> 00:45:59,680
Speaker 4: It is a little transition, but they got another they

996
00:45:59,680 --> 00:46:02,839
Speaker 4: brought it another receiver to take up the slack of

997
00:46:03,000 --> 00:46:05,440
Speaker 4: Cooper being gone, mp Cut being gone.

998
00:46:06,360 --> 00:46:09,200
Speaker 3: Not fall, Yeah, don't do don't go through all the Coopers.

999
00:46:09,280 --> 00:46:09,480
Speaker 1: Yeah.

1000
00:46:09,560 --> 00:46:12,479
Speaker 4: Yeah, So I think this team has a realistic shot

1001
00:46:12,520 --> 00:46:14,359
Speaker 4: of being a really good team this year as well.

1002
00:46:15,000 --> 00:46:17,279
Speaker 4: Now outside of that, I don't know, but I could

1003
00:46:17,280 --> 00:46:18,520
Speaker 4: see him planning two more years.

1004
00:46:18,400 --> 00:46:23,840
Speaker 3: Here, two more years that seems that's hard for me

1005
00:46:23,960 --> 00:46:26,719
Speaker 3: to just believe because of what I've I've told you.

1006
00:46:26,840 --> 00:46:30,520
Speaker 3: I feel like he's gonna get older. Another year of getting.

1007
00:46:30,320 --> 00:46:32,880
Speaker 2: Hit, right, So then we're having this conversation again in

1008
00:46:32,920 --> 00:46:34,400
Speaker 2: one year and it's going to be even more of

1009
00:46:34,520 --> 00:46:38,040
Speaker 2: like how much can his body really take? And I

1010
00:46:38,080 --> 00:46:44,239
Speaker 2: don't know how obviously, Like it's a constantly changing team

1011
00:46:44,280 --> 00:46:46,200
Speaker 2: right now, Like you mentioned for the Rams there, they're

1012
00:46:46,280 --> 00:46:48,000
Speaker 2: kind of getting new players.

1013
00:46:48,000 --> 00:46:49,520
Speaker 3: They don't want to do a full rebuild.

1014
00:46:49,560 --> 00:46:52,200
Speaker 2: They're not doing that, right, They've decided to not do that,

1015
00:46:52,239 --> 00:46:54,040
Speaker 2: even though they kind of hinted maybe they were going

1016
00:46:54,120 --> 00:46:56,040
Speaker 2: to try to do that. No, they're they're doing this

1017
00:46:56,160 --> 00:46:57,840
Speaker 2: and they're trying to stick with Matthew Stafford.

1018
00:46:57,880 --> 00:46:59,760
Speaker 3: But I don't see two years.

1019
00:46:59,800 --> 00:47:03,680
Speaker 2: See seems like, man, you better cross your t's, dot

1020
00:47:03,719 --> 00:47:06,560
Speaker 2: your eyes, cross your fingers and hope that you get

1021
00:47:06,560 --> 00:47:07,480
Speaker 2: two years out of him.

1022
00:47:07,680 --> 00:47:11,680
Speaker 4: True. But the way but the way that the Rams

1023
00:47:11,719 --> 00:47:14,240
Speaker 4: have transition and the way that they like to play.

1024
00:47:15,040 --> 00:47:17,600
Speaker 4: They have that Baill calendar at running back with kyn

1025
00:47:17,640 --> 00:47:21,000
Speaker 4: Williams and so it's a lot of stretch zones, a

1026
00:47:21,040 --> 00:47:22,799
Speaker 4: lot of runs, a lot of play action off of that.

1027
00:47:22,880 --> 00:47:27,920
Speaker 4: So the pressure or I guess the urgency of protecting

1028
00:47:28,200 --> 00:47:32,839
Speaker 4: Matthew Stafford is obviously, you know, it should be level ten,

1029
00:47:32,880 --> 00:47:34,600
Speaker 4: It should be the first thing of their on their

1030
00:47:34,600 --> 00:47:36,880
Speaker 4: priority list. But they do a good job of that,

1031
00:47:36,920 --> 00:47:38,680
Speaker 4: and I think they will take the load off him

1032
00:47:38,719 --> 00:47:41,040
Speaker 4: as much as possible. And let's not forget it's not

1033
00:47:41,120 --> 00:47:42,560
Speaker 4: just about that offense like it used to be. That

1034
00:47:42,640 --> 00:47:45,840
Speaker 4: defense is really good. And so yes, all the factors combined,

1035
00:47:45,880 --> 00:47:47,640
Speaker 4: I think you could played two more really good years.

1036
00:47:47,520 --> 00:47:50,760
Speaker 3: Now, two more really good years. All right, NFC West,

1037
00:47:51,160 --> 00:47:53,920
Speaker 3: You've got these are the four quarterbacks right now. You've

1038
00:47:53,920 --> 00:47:57,440
Speaker 3: got Matthew Stafford, You've got Sam Darnold over in Seattle,

1039
00:47:57,719 --> 00:47:59,960
Speaker 3: You've got Kyler Murray, and you've got brock Per.

1040
00:48:00,120 --> 00:48:01,799
Speaker 4: Yeah, Matthew Stafford's the best one out of the bunch.

1041
00:48:01,840 --> 00:48:04,640
Speaker 2: So Matthew Stafford is the best one out of the bunch,

1042
00:48:04,840 --> 00:48:07,680
Speaker 2: no question today at age thirty seven.

1043
00:48:07,719 --> 00:48:10,239
Speaker 3: I'm not saying like overall career, right because I do

1044
00:48:10,480 --> 00:48:12,000
Speaker 3: think what he's done has been great.

1045
00:48:12,000 --> 00:48:13,719
Speaker 4: At thirty seven years old, he's the best quarterback in

1046
00:48:13,719 --> 00:48:14,560
Speaker 4: that division right now.

1047
00:48:14,800 --> 00:48:17,719
Speaker 3: Wow, you hear me, I heard you. No hesitation, not

1048
00:48:17,760 --> 00:48:19,000
Speaker 3: at all, not even a little bit.

1049
00:48:19,040 --> 00:48:21,920
Speaker 2: First, you're telling me that the Denver Nuggets are going

1050
00:48:21,960 --> 00:48:24,080
Speaker 2: to be okay, seeing yeah, one write that down. And

1051
00:48:24,120 --> 00:48:26,480
Speaker 2: now you're telling me Matthew Stafford is the best quarterback

1052
00:48:26,760 --> 00:48:29,399
Speaker 2: in that division right now at thirty seven years old.

1053
00:48:29,520 --> 00:48:31,320
Speaker 2: I mean, if you're saying that, I've got to believe

1054
00:48:31,360 --> 00:48:34,000
Speaker 2: it because you're you were a former All Pro.

1055
00:48:33,960 --> 00:48:36,000
Speaker 3: Safety, So I guess I gotta believe that.

1056
00:48:36,040 --> 00:48:39,239
Speaker 4: But do you think it is in that division? Just

1057
00:48:39,280 --> 00:48:41,080
Speaker 4: look at just the names you just named.

1058
00:48:42,560 --> 00:48:43,320
Speaker 3: It's not pretty.

1059
00:48:44,600 --> 00:48:47,080
Speaker 7: It's not pretty because I don't think one stands out.

1060
00:48:47,680 --> 00:48:49,200
Speaker 7: But you said it so confidently.

1061
00:48:49,320 --> 00:48:50,439
Speaker 3: Yeah, and that's what I don't.

1062
00:48:50,480 --> 00:48:54,080
Speaker 2: I maybe he's but I'm not saying that confidently, And

1063
00:48:54,280 --> 00:48:56,399
Speaker 2: it's because of age. I feel like the other guys,

1064
00:48:56,440 --> 00:48:58,319
Speaker 2: you know what I'm saying, they're young, and I'm just

1065
00:48:59,160 --> 00:49:02,319
Speaker 2: one year of his body taking more hits.

1066
00:49:02,360 --> 00:49:03,319
Speaker 3: They got to protect him.

1067
00:49:03,360 --> 00:49:05,719
Speaker 2: They have to protect him this season in order to

1068
00:49:05,760 --> 00:49:09,480
Speaker 2: have two successful years. But I guess I just I'm

1069
00:49:09,760 --> 00:49:12,800
Speaker 2: a little bit worried that his banged up body already

1070
00:49:12,920 --> 00:49:15,600
Speaker 2: is going to be able to sustain another year going

1071
00:49:15,600 --> 00:49:17,560
Speaker 2: into the postseason, when you know it gets even harder

1072
00:49:17,560 --> 00:49:19,960
Speaker 2: because the goal is obviously to make the postseason. It's

1073
00:49:20,000 --> 00:49:23,120
Speaker 2: not just to play like they want. The Rams have

1074
00:49:23,160 --> 00:49:25,120
Speaker 2: a goal and it's to win the division and move on.

1075
00:49:25,480 --> 00:49:29,000
Speaker 2: And so I just I say this year realistically might

1076
00:49:29,040 --> 00:49:33,279
Speaker 2: be the last good year for Matthew Stafford and that

1077
00:49:33,360 --> 00:49:36,760
Speaker 2: the Rams maybe have to start thinking who's gonna Who's

1078
00:49:36,800 --> 00:49:38,560
Speaker 2: gonna be predecessor?

1079
00:49:38,680 --> 00:49:42,720
Speaker 4: Yeah on that roster Jimmy Garoppolo and Stan Bennett.

1080
00:49:42,800 --> 00:49:48,160
Speaker 3: Yeah, Stetson Bennett. Who is he still around? I just

1081
00:49:48,239 --> 00:49:51,480
Speaker 3: haven't seen heard is he honestly is he still around?

1082
00:49:51,719 --> 00:49:54,120
Speaker 4: I don't know, but I just the right he is.

1083
00:49:54,120 --> 00:49:55,320
Speaker 3: Listed on their roster.

1084
00:49:55,600 --> 00:49:58,600
Speaker 2: Absolutely, I double checked that, but I was like, no, Stetson,

1085
00:49:58,800 --> 00:49:59,359
Speaker 2: is he still?

1086
00:49:59,400 --> 00:50:00,840
Speaker 3: Does he exist in the world?

1087
00:50:01,440 --> 00:50:04,080
Speaker 4: Man, there's the Stetson Bennet out there somewhere. Let's let's

1088
00:50:04,120 --> 00:50:07,719
Speaker 4: let's check out what's the thing called Truthfinder dot?

1089
00:50:08,680 --> 00:50:10,640
Speaker 2: And the truth of the matter is, we actually have

1090
00:50:10,680 --> 00:50:13,880
Speaker 2: no idea what Stetsan Stetson Bennett can do. And Jimmy

1091
00:50:13,880 --> 00:50:15,920
Speaker 2: Garoppolo we actually know exactly what he's gonna do. Yea,

1092
00:50:16,360 --> 00:50:18,359
Speaker 2: So he we know he is not going to take over,

1093
00:50:18,440 --> 00:50:21,320
Speaker 2: but he's a good a good guy to learn from.

1094
00:50:21,320 --> 00:50:23,439
Speaker 2: Both of them are I just think the Rams are

1095
00:50:23,480 --> 00:50:27,239
Speaker 2: definitely squeezing out if they can on Matthew Stafford, and

1096
00:50:27,280 --> 00:50:30,920
Speaker 2: they maybe you should already start looking at the future

1097
00:50:31,160 --> 00:50:31,719
Speaker 2: beyond him.

1098
00:50:31,760 --> 00:50:35,440
Speaker 4: Well, I think I think they would have. But this class,

1099
00:50:35,480 --> 00:50:38,680
Speaker 4: this this quarterback free agency, this market wasn't a strong one.

1100
00:50:38,760 --> 00:50:40,520
Speaker 4: So they're definitely going to ride him out for a

1101
00:50:40,640 --> 00:50:43,000
Speaker 4: year and I'm sure they'll draft that quarterback next year.

1102
00:50:43,000 --> 00:50:45,040
Speaker 4: So I don't think it's as pressing as we were

1103
00:50:45,080 --> 00:50:47,480
Speaker 4: making it saying like right now, because if you look

1104
00:50:47,520 --> 00:50:49,839
Speaker 4: at their roster exactly what you're saying is true, there's

1105
00:50:49,880 --> 00:50:52,959
Speaker 4: nobody there too. If he does go down, like really

1106
00:50:53,040 --> 00:50:56,040
Speaker 4: run that ship, I guess. But you get through this year.

1107
00:50:56,120 --> 00:50:58,320
Speaker 4: Next year, the quarterback draft class is a lot different,

1108
00:50:58,320 --> 00:51:01,200
Speaker 4: and the actual free market it would be a lot

1109
00:51:01,239 --> 00:51:03,720
Speaker 4: different as well. So this conversation is very.

1110
00:51:03,560 --> 00:51:05,080
Speaker 3: Early, very very early.

1111
00:51:05,200 --> 00:51:08,120
Speaker 2: Absolutely and literally only because of what Sean McVay said,

1112
00:51:08,440 --> 00:51:10,480
Speaker 2: we decided to but it's a very early discussion.

1113
00:51:10,520 --> 00:51:12,279
Speaker 3: And I'm looking at this NFC West and I.

1114
00:51:12,239 --> 00:51:15,800
Speaker 2: Am really curious in you know, halfway through the season,

1115
00:51:15,840 --> 00:51:18,799
Speaker 2: what we're going to be saying between this division because

1116
00:51:18,840 --> 00:51:23,040
Speaker 2: of the quarterbacks, like Brock Purdy has something to do,

1117
00:51:23,160 --> 00:51:25,360
Speaker 2: has something to prove after what just happened, right, He

1118
00:51:25,400 --> 00:51:27,400
Speaker 2: wants to prove that he is a good quarterback and

1119
00:51:27,440 --> 00:51:29,360
Speaker 2: it's not just his weapons as to why he was

1120
00:51:29,360 --> 00:51:32,400
Speaker 2: successful when he was thrown into the mix as mister Irrelevant,

1121
00:51:32,520 --> 00:51:35,200
Speaker 2: who he no longer is, but when he was thrown

1122
00:51:35,239 --> 00:51:36,000
Speaker 2: in there, he was.

1123
00:51:36,040 --> 00:51:38,399
Speaker 3: He has that to prove. Kyler Murray has a lot

1124
00:51:38,440 --> 00:51:38,960
Speaker 3: to prove too.

1125
00:51:39,080 --> 00:51:41,800
Speaker 4: Yeah, that team's going to be a tricky team to

1126
00:51:41,960 --> 00:51:45,280
Speaker 4: kind of assess because I think obviously with Jonathan Gannon

1127
00:51:45,320 --> 00:51:47,040
Speaker 4: at the head coach position, they're going to play hard

1128
00:51:47,040 --> 00:51:49,200
Speaker 4: and we're going to be prepared and they're gonna win

1129
00:51:49,239 --> 00:51:51,239
Speaker 4: some game they shouldn't and so, which is what we saw.

1130
00:51:51,360 --> 00:51:53,359
Speaker 3: But then we saw them lose games where you were like,

1131
00:51:53,640 --> 00:51:55,000
Speaker 3: how did you lose this game?

1132
00:51:55,200 --> 00:51:58,520
Speaker 4: But when that one, yeah, it's yeah. So Kyler Murray

1133
00:51:58,600 --> 00:51:59,600
Speaker 4: also has a lot to prove.

1134
00:51:59,800 --> 00:52:04,400
Speaker 2: And Saam Darnold coming off this season with Minnesota, he's

1135
00:52:04,440 --> 00:52:07,080
Speaker 2: got a lot to prove that that wasn't a fluke,

1136
00:52:07,400 --> 00:52:10,040
Speaker 2: that it wasn't just Justin Jefferson out there that he

1137
00:52:10,080 --> 00:52:13,160
Speaker 2: was throwing the ball to. And Kevin O'Connell the whisper,

1138
00:52:13,400 --> 00:52:16,160
Speaker 2: he's got that to prove. And then there's Matthew Stafford

1139
00:52:16,200 --> 00:52:17,000
Speaker 2: who's already done it.

1140
00:52:17,080 --> 00:52:20,319
Speaker 7: He's already gone through all, he's won it, been it,

1141
00:52:20,520 --> 00:52:22,080
Speaker 7: got Sean McVay, all of that.

1142
00:52:22,440 --> 00:52:24,320
Speaker 4: Yeah, and that's why they're going to be a favorite

1143
00:52:24,320 --> 00:52:25,000
Speaker 4: to win that division.

1144
00:52:26,440 --> 00:52:28,040
Speaker 3: They're going to be favorite to win that division.

1145
00:52:28,120 --> 00:52:33,360
Speaker 14: Yeah, yeah, I like, yes, just over the over the

1146
00:52:33,360 --> 00:52:36,080
Speaker 14: forty nine ers, because the forty nine ers, their window

1147
00:52:36,160 --> 00:52:39,160
Speaker 14: you think is closed, it's it's closing.

1148
00:52:39,239 --> 00:52:40,760
Speaker 3: It's closing. It's like it's starting.

1149
00:52:41,000 --> 00:52:42,520
Speaker 4: I mean they won't have a good year. I don't

1150
00:52:42,520 --> 00:52:45,040
Speaker 4: know that. But right now, the favorite to win that

1151
00:52:45,080 --> 00:52:47,240
Speaker 4: division with Matthew Stafford coming back is DRAMs.

1152
00:52:47,280 --> 00:52:49,640
Speaker 2: All right, well, listen, I actually have a lot of

1153
00:52:49,719 --> 00:52:53,080
Speaker 2: questions for our NBA insider, Adam Kaplan.

1154
00:52:53,840 --> 00:52:56,960
Speaker 3: Uh huh, And what did I say NBA?

1155
00:52:57,080 --> 00:52:58,439
Speaker 4: I know, I know we're in NBA.

1156
00:52:58,480 --> 00:52:59,879
Speaker 3: I know we're on an NBA time, but you got

1157
00:53:00,200 --> 00:53:01,360
Speaker 3: you guys, I swear I'm in the NFL.

1158
00:53:01,400 --> 00:53:04,399
Speaker 2: I have so many questions about the NFL, including about

1159
00:53:04,400 --> 00:53:06,960
Speaker 2: the Chargers. My Chargers to see what they're gonna do

1160
00:53:07,440 --> 00:53:09,600
Speaker 2: for this upcoming season. So don't go anywhere. We are

1161
00:53:09,600 --> 00:53:13,040
Speaker 2: gonna talk to Adam Kaplan. Next, this is Fox Sports Sunday.

Speaker 3: Game one of the NBA Eastern.

1174
00:53:41,880 --> 00:53:45,640
Speaker 2: Conference semi Finals is underway between the Pacers and the

1175
00:53:45,840 --> 00:53:51,000
Speaker 2: Cleveland Guardians. Nope, the Cleveland Cavaliers. I keep doing that, Indiana.

1176
00:53:51,040 --> 00:53:52,799
Speaker 2: The Pacers are up twenty three to twenty one with

1177
00:53:52,840 --> 00:53:54,200
Speaker 2: about three and a half minutes to go in the

1178
00:53:54,239 --> 00:53:56,399
Speaker 2: first quarter, so plenty of game to go. But we're

1179
00:53:56,440 --> 00:53:59,880
Speaker 2: gonna shift over to the NFL with our NFL inside.

1180
00:54:00,239 --> 00:54:02,319
Speaker 2: Adam Kaplan, Adam are you there?

1181
00:54:02,880 --> 00:54:03,879
Speaker 1: I am goad guy.

1182
00:54:04,360 --> 00:54:07,359
Speaker 3: You are well happy to chat with you. I've got

1183
00:54:07,360 --> 00:54:09,040
Speaker 3: a loaded question, so I'm gonna start first.

1184
00:54:09,080 --> 00:54:11,400
Speaker 4: So I've got a loaded quest.

1185
00:54:11,800 --> 00:54:13,919
Speaker 1: Let me unloaded, lad, and.

1186
00:54:13,920 --> 00:54:15,480
Speaker 3: You'll see what I mean by it's loaded. So I'm

1187
00:54:15,520 --> 00:54:17,480
Speaker 3: gonna give it. It's gonna be a little much.

1188
00:54:17,520 --> 00:54:20,239
Speaker 2: But AFC West, So two teams in the AFC West

1189
00:54:20,239 --> 00:54:22,840
Speaker 2: that I have questions for, and I just want you

1190
00:54:22,880 --> 00:54:24,919
Speaker 2: to kind of tell me how the AFC West will

1191
00:54:25,000 --> 00:54:27,920
Speaker 2: end up. But the Raiders, new coach, new quarterback, new

1192
00:54:28,000 --> 00:54:31,840
Speaker 2: running back. Are they gonna move up in the rankings

1193
00:54:31,880 --> 00:54:35,680
Speaker 2: of the AFC West? With my Chargers adding running back

1194
00:54:35,680 --> 00:54:38,680
Speaker 2: Omari and Hampton the SEC defensive player of the year

1195
00:54:38,920 --> 00:54:40,040
Speaker 2: in defensive end Kyle.

1196
00:54:39,920 --> 00:54:43,799
Speaker 3: Krenard, Who's gonna move up? Who is anyone going to

1197
00:54:43,920 --> 00:54:47,080
Speaker 3: challenge the Chiefs this year? Are the Broncos gonna settle down?

1198
00:54:47,600 --> 00:54:51,840
Speaker 3: Is Drew Lock gonna have maybe a sophomore slump? Quote unquote?

1199
00:54:51,880 --> 00:54:54,000
Speaker 3: What do you see happening in the AFC West?

1200
00:54:54,080 --> 00:54:56,399
Speaker 1: All right, Manti, let's start with the Raiders. They were

1201
00:54:56,600 --> 00:55:00,120
Speaker 1: one of my bottom three teams pre draft of just

1202
00:55:00,200 --> 00:55:02,320
Speaker 1: when I did an over here, I did some power rankings.

1203
00:55:02,800 --> 00:55:04,680
Speaker 1: It's just they STI don't have very much talent. Now

1204
00:55:05,480 --> 00:55:08,520
Speaker 1: they add Gent It's funny like how they didn't even

1205
00:55:08,520 --> 00:55:11,440
Speaker 1: deny how much they were interested in him before the draft,

1206
00:55:11,440 --> 00:55:13,480
Speaker 1: and it was almost like a smoke scream. Are they

1207
00:55:13,520 --> 00:55:15,520
Speaker 1: really serious putting this information out? You know they were

1208
00:55:15,520 --> 00:55:18,200
Speaker 1: telling the truth. It starts with the run game. Chip

1209
00:55:18,280 --> 00:55:21,200
Speaker 1: Kelly is going to call the run. This is what

1210
00:55:21,400 --> 00:55:23,640
Speaker 1: Pete Karra wants. Is why they're paying Chip Kelly six

1211
00:55:23,680 --> 00:55:25,600
Speaker 1: million here to be at offense coordinator.

1212
00:55:25,640 --> 00:55:27,800
Speaker 4: Wow, Yeah, it's crazy.

1213
00:55:28,080 --> 00:55:31,080
Speaker 1: Highest paid OC that I know and I believe carry

1214
00:55:31,080 --> 00:55:35,359
Speaker 1: a NFL history. So you look at the defense, which

1215
00:55:35,400 --> 00:55:38,120
Speaker 1: needed a lot of work. They're going to redo it

1216
00:55:38,120 --> 00:55:40,840
Speaker 1: a little bit. Certainly they're going to go with the

1217
00:55:40,840 --> 00:55:43,560
Speaker 1: same defense coordinator. Patrick Grahame was really good, but they

1218
00:55:43,600 --> 00:55:46,520
Speaker 1: added some talent on the back end. There are ways away.

1219
00:55:46,800 --> 00:55:50,240
Speaker 1: There are ways away. When you look at the AFC West,

1220
00:55:50,280 --> 00:55:53,120
Speaker 1: they're still they're still at the bottom. You know, you

1221
00:55:53,160 --> 00:55:55,919
Speaker 1: expect them not to be much better, but where they

1222
00:55:56,360 --> 00:55:57,560
Speaker 1: have to feel good as they got you and know

1223
00:55:57,600 --> 00:56:01,279
Speaker 1: Samantha guys won games in his career around by the way,

1224
00:56:01,320 --> 00:56:03,200
Speaker 1: carry what was your last year with the Jets?

1225
00:56:03,360 --> 00:56:05,040
Speaker 4: Oh you made me go back?

1226
00:56:05,560 --> 00:56:06,520
Speaker 1: You weren't with him, were you?

1227
00:56:06,600 --> 00:56:06,839
Speaker 4: No?

1228
00:56:06,840 --> 00:56:12,759
Speaker 1: No? No? No? Asked okay, okay, got you? But yeah,

1229
00:56:12,800 --> 00:56:16,000
Speaker 1: so some manti answer your question. The Raiders. Look there,

1230
00:56:16,040 --> 00:56:19,319
Speaker 1: it's going to be a ball control offense. If Chip

1231
00:56:19,360 --> 00:56:21,319
Speaker 1: Kelly were bringing his offense here, the league knows what

1232
00:56:21,360 --> 00:56:23,319
Speaker 1: it looks like. It's not gonna be any secret what

1233
00:56:23,360 --> 00:56:27,360
Speaker 1: it is. But yeah, they've done some things. But the Chargers,

1234
00:56:27,960 --> 00:56:30,040
Speaker 1: they've had a good offseason. They were surprising me last

1235
00:56:30,080 --> 00:56:33,439
Speaker 1: year in Jim Harborough's first year. Uh they bring back

1236
00:56:33,440 --> 00:56:36,400
Speaker 1: Mike Williams for the tail anima's career here, Trey Harrison

1237
00:56:36,400 --> 00:56:39,920
Speaker 1: the second round. It's the receiver. I like Hampton, by

1238
00:56:39,920 --> 00:56:42,200
Speaker 1: the way, I know multiple teams who actually had Hampton

1239
00:56:42,239 --> 00:56:45,279
Speaker 1: graded over genty, which seems hard to believe. But he's

1240
00:56:45,360 --> 00:56:48,560
Speaker 1: more explosive he's but he's not a bell cow. He's

1241
00:56:48,760 --> 00:56:51,439
Speaker 1: there are questions about how much work he could handle.

1242
00:56:51,440 --> 00:56:53,279
Speaker 1: That's where Naji Harris comes in. There will have a

1243
00:56:53,320 --> 00:56:56,520
Speaker 1: one two punch. Now. They needed help on the front

1244
00:56:56,560 --> 00:56:59,360
Speaker 1: seven they got. They're not very talented quite frankly on

1245
00:56:59,440 --> 00:57:02,360
Speaker 1: defense when you look at it, remember they cut Joey Bosa,

1246
00:57:03,400 --> 00:57:06,000
Speaker 1: so they had to move on from him. They're kind

1247
00:57:06,000 --> 00:57:09,640
Speaker 1: of weak at cornerback. Klomach is up there, you know,

1248
00:57:09,680 --> 00:57:12,120
Speaker 1: he in his mid thirties. That's where they kind of

1249
00:57:12,120 --> 00:57:14,680
Speaker 1: overachieved that. That to me is why it'll be hard

1250
00:57:14,680 --> 00:57:16,840
Speaker 1: for him to win that division, but they are closing

1251
00:57:16,880 --> 00:57:17,920
Speaker 1: some ground here on the Chiefs.

1252
00:57:18,080 --> 00:57:21,680
Speaker 4: Yeah. The thing about the Chargers, and I think which

1253
00:57:21,760 --> 00:57:23,520
Speaker 4: was the family for them last year and why their

1254
00:57:23,520 --> 00:57:26,919
Speaker 4: defense was pretty above average is because of the way

1255
00:57:26,920 --> 00:57:29,880
Speaker 4: they play the game, right, so they limit other teams

1256
00:57:29,920 --> 00:57:32,960
Speaker 4: possessions and so the defensive numbers are kind of a

1257
00:57:33,000 --> 00:57:35,400
Speaker 4: little bit falsified when you look at the talent they have.

1258
00:57:35,520 --> 00:57:37,919
Speaker 1: But I'm pretty disciplined though, I'll say this much under

1259
00:57:38,000 --> 00:57:42,240
Speaker 1: Jesse Mentor it's a really cool stirt. His dad Rick Yep. Ironically,

1260
00:57:42,280 --> 00:57:44,920
Speaker 1: we'd talked about Chip Kelly. He was actually a linebackers

1261
00:57:44,920 --> 00:57:47,960
Speaker 1: coach or under Chip here in Philly, and then you

1262
00:57:48,080 --> 00:57:49,360
Speaker 1: Rick was out of the game. He was a former

1263
00:57:49,400 --> 00:57:51,160
Speaker 1: head coach at the University of Cincinnati. By the way,

1264
00:57:51,280 --> 00:57:53,080
Speaker 1: He's known the Harvall family for a long time. And

1265
00:57:53,160 --> 00:57:55,760
Speaker 1: Jesse is probably going to have a chance of the

1266
00:57:55,840 --> 00:57:57,880
Speaker 1: NFL head coach. What a great job that they did

1267
00:57:57,920 --> 00:58:01,080
Speaker 1: and carry Yeah, look, not the most talented defense, but

1268
00:58:01,360 --> 00:58:01,959
Speaker 1: very well coached.

1269
00:58:02,000 --> 00:58:04,120
Speaker 4: Yeah, Adam, me and Mossi before you came home, we

1270
00:58:04,120 --> 00:58:07,440
Speaker 4: were having a conversation about the NFC West and obviously

1271
00:58:07,600 --> 00:58:11,360
Speaker 4: the Matthew Stafford sound bite that came from McVey recently saying,

1272
00:58:11,440 --> 00:58:13,240
Speaker 4: you know you wanted him to play a couple more

1273
00:58:13,280 --> 00:58:15,880
Speaker 4: years and expected him to play a couple more years,

1274
00:58:15,880 --> 00:58:17,520
Speaker 4: And I said, I told h Moncie, I could see

1275
00:58:17,560 --> 00:58:19,840
Speaker 4: him playing two more years at a really at a really,

1276
00:58:19,920 --> 00:58:22,600
Speaker 4: really good level, and I expect that team to be

1277
00:58:22,680 --> 00:58:24,880
Speaker 4: the favorite in the NFC West. Do you agree with that?

1278
00:58:26,320 --> 00:58:28,920
Speaker 1: Here's the thing, though, they did not address the cornerback position.

1279
00:58:28,960 --> 00:58:31,320
Speaker 1: Now they believe or not, they still have interested in

1280
00:58:31,400 --> 00:58:33,520
Speaker 1: Jayalen Ramsey to bring him back for a second round,

1281
00:58:33,520 --> 00:58:36,680
Speaker 1: but they didn't draft on which stunned me because there

1282
00:58:37,000 --> 00:58:40,600
Speaker 1: they go to Journeymen, A Killer Weatherspoon and Darius Williams.

1283
00:58:41,040 --> 00:58:43,480
Speaker 1: Williams started his career with the Rams and he's kind

1284
00:58:43,480 --> 00:58:45,400
Speaker 1: of in the twilight at Killer Witherspoon's on the number

1285
00:58:45,400 --> 00:58:48,000
Speaker 1: of teams still has ut him. A couple of years ago,

1286
00:58:48,080 --> 00:58:50,160
Speaker 1: he revived his career a little bit, but they didn't

1287
00:58:50,160 --> 00:58:53,840
Speaker 1: really address it. That does worry me for sure. DeVante

1288
00:58:53,840 --> 00:58:56,840
Speaker 1: Adams also in the twilight of his career with Pukaku's

1289
00:58:57,040 --> 00:58:59,920
Speaker 1: great player, but a big injury history. They've shaped their

1290
00:59:00,000 --> 00:59:03,160
Speaker 1: offensive line over the last year, they're going to be good.

1291
00:59:03,520 --> 00:59:06,920
Speaker 1: But the team that's nobody's talking about, the Seattle Seahawks, right,

1292
00:59:07,600 --> 00:59:09,720
Speaker 1: they make they make the tray and they make the

1293
00:59:09,760 --> 00:59:13,240
Speaker 1: signing of They bring over Sam Darnold as a free agent.

1294
00:59:13,960 --> 00:59:16,080
Speaker 1: They bring over Cooper Cup. I know he's older, but

1295
00:59:16,440 --> 00:59:18,160
Speaker 1: they'll they'll figure out a way to make sure it works.

1296
00:59:18,200 --> 00:59:20,000
Speaker 1: They dress their offensive line with Gray Zabel in the

1297
00:59:20,040 --> 00:59:23,920
Speaker 1: first round. They brought into Marcus Lawrence to address their

1298
00:59:23,960 --> 00:59:26,840
Speaker 1: issue on the defensive line. They've they've sort of fortified

1299
00:59:26,880 --> 00:59:29,040
Speaker 1: their their their secondary a little bit over last year.

1300
00:59:29,760 --> 00:59:32,480
Speaker 1: And Nick Amanwari, who's my favorite safety for the draft,

1301
00:59:32,760 --> 00:59:36,000
Speaker 1: who is a tremendous athlete and he's got great size.

1302
00:59:36,600 --> 00:59:39,680
Speaker 1: This is a sleeper team for me in a wide

1303
00:59:39,680 --> 00:59:41,800
Speaker 1: open Your guys are right, this is a I know

1304
00:59:41,880 --> 00:59:44,760
Speaker 1: the Niners by the batting numbers, the books, the oddmakers

1305
00:59:45,000 --> 00:59:49,040
Speaker 1: have the Niners as the slight favorite. Nobody's talking with

1306
00:59:49,160 --> 00:59:51,000
Speaker 1: the Seahawks that that would be a sleeper team for me.

1307
00:59:52,000 --> 00:59:53,680
Speaker 2: I just want to know what you're going to say

1308
00:59:53,920 --> 00:59:56,840
Speaker 2: compared to Carry's answer, who's the best quarterback in the NFC?

1309
00:59:56,960 --> 00:59:59,720
Speaker 3: West? Oh boy?

1310
01:00:00,280 --> 01:00:02,600
Speaker 1: Still? Now I would take Stafford.

1311
01:00:02,520 --> 01:00:05,400
Speaker 4: You would take he's still good. Listen.

1312
01:00:05,480 --> 01:00:11,919
Speaker 1: Yes, he's super tough. He suffers injuries, plays through them. Now,

1313
01:00:12,040 --> 01:00:14,040
Speaker 1: the Cardinals we didn't talk about. I don't want to

1314
01:00:14,040 --> 01:00:15,800
Speaker 1: say the overtrea with the record, but they play hard

1315
01:00:15,840 --> 01:00:18,320
Speaker 1: for Jonathan Gannon, their head coach. They're not very talented,

1316
01:00:18,760 --> 01:00:20,560
Speaker 1: but they play really hard. They get they get a

1317
01:00:20,640 --> 01:00:23,120
Speaker 1: lot out of what they have. It's just ki Kyler

1318
01:00:23,200 --> 01:00:26,840
Speaker 1: Murray ever play a really good season. He flashes, but

1319
01:00:27,800 --> 01:00:30,880
Speaker 1: he's just very inconsistent. They're a team that nobody really

1320
01:00:30,880 --> 01:00:32,480
Speaker 1: talks about it. You know, it's been it's been a

1321
01:00:32,560 --> 01:00:35,560
Speaker 1: number of years since they've been competitive. But yeah, if

1322
01:00:35,840 --> 01:00:38,480
Speaker 1: every year there's a team that comes out of nowhere

1323
01:00:39,000 --> 01:00:41,480
Speaker 1: and shocks us, like last year would be well Denver.

1324
01:00:41,960 --> 01:00:43,720
Speaker 1: The oddsmakers, by the way, give the Broncos four and

1325
01:00:43,800 --> 01:00:46,680
Speaker 1: f wins last season. Yeah, they were wrong, and the

1326
01:00:46,800 --> 01:00:48,720
Speaker 1: Chargers in the Broncos will be those two teams. My

1327
01:00:48,760 --> 01:00:50,040
Speaker 1: team this year would be the Seahawks.

1328
01:00:50,160 --> 01:00:51,200
Speaker 3: Interesting. Interesting.

1329
01:00:51,440 --> 01:00:53,480
Speaker 2: Okay, let's move on to the Cleveland Browns, who have

1330
01:00:53,520 --> 01:00:58,000
Speaker 2: five quarterbacks. Do you think there's a realistic, realistic chance

1331
01:00:58,040 --> 01:00:59,880
Speaker 2: that Deshaun Watson is cut?

1332
01:01:00,640 --> 01:01:03,880
Speaker 1: No, because no, they made this decision. You know, they

1333
01:01:03,880 --> 01:01:08,480
Speaker 1: were structure his contract. I don't see it based on

1334
01:01:08,720 --> 01:01:10,720
Speaker 1: what they did to his contract. I never say never

1335
01:01:10,760 --> 01:01:13,120
Speaker 1: with these things, but they don't expect him to play

1336
01:01:13,160 --> 01:01:17,080
Speaker 1: this season. It obviously wind up being arguably the West

1337
01:01:17,080 --> 01:01:19,800
Speaker 1: transaction NFL history. It's just a terrible trade. But so

1338
01:01:19,880 --> 01:01:21,880
Speaker 1: you got four guys, right, Flacco is the odds on

1339
01:01:22,040 --> 01:01:24,800
Speaker 1: favorite to start. He got picked, it was in the final.

1340
01:01:24,600 --> 01:01:25,080
Speaker 15: Year of his deal.

1341
01:01:25,160 --> 01:01:27,000
Speaker 1: Then you got Shooder Centaers. So we talked about last

1342
01:01:27,040 --> 01:01:30,240
Speaker 1: Sunday and Dylan Gabriel. Once his team's out of the

1343
01:01:30,240 --> 01:01:33,280
Speaker 1: playoff race, assuming that it's going to be Flacco, which

1344
01:01:33,360 --> 01:01:34,960
Speaker 1: it would surprise me if Joe doesn't win it. And

1345
01:01:35,000 --> 01:01:37,840
Speaker 1: he was incredible, you know, for that final quarter of

1346
01:01:37,840 --> 01:01:40,280
Speaker 1: the season and put them in the playoffs. He really

1347
01:01:40,360 --> 01:01:43,480
Speaker 1: did carry the team. But realistically, you know they'll be

1348
01:01:43,520 --> 01:01:46,200
Speaker 1: out of the playoffs in early December. If Shorer's doing

1349
01:01:46,240 --> 01:01:50,439
Speaker 1: everything that he's supposed to do and he's ready to roll,

1350
01:01:50,520 --> 01:01:52,360
Speaker 1: I mean that's to me, you just play him. Now.

1351
01:01:52,400 --> 01:01:54,600
Speaker 1: We have to see what happens in training camp, and

1352
01:01:54,640 --> 01:01:56,280
Speaker 1: I look for I'll be at their training camp, so

1353
01:01:56,360 --> 01:01:58,560
Speaker 1: I'm I look forward to seeing him up close and

1354
01:01:58,560 --> 01:02:01,400
Speaker 1: see how he's doing. But I'm just telling you guys,

1355
01:02:01,400 --> 01:02:03,400
Speaker 1: they don't know who the starters passed the season. In fact,

1356
01:02:03,400 --> 01:02:05,640
Speaker 1: they don't know who it's going to be yet this season,

1357
01:02:06,400 --> 01:02:08,680
Speaker 1: and they feel look with Judkins, the second round running

1358
01:02:08,680 --> 01:02:11,440
Speaker 1: back at Ohio State, who should take over the starting

1359
01:02:11,520 --> 01:02:14,640
Speaker 1: value pretty quickly with that defense on our Jim Schwartz,

1360
01:02:14,680 --> 01:02:16,640
Speaker 1: I mean, they're going to be competitive, but how competitive

1361
01:02:16,640 --> 01:02:18,200
Speaker 1: it depends on the quarterback position. Man.

1362
01:02:18,280 --> 01:02:20,480
Speaker 4: So yeah, the landscape in the NFL is it's actually

1363
01:02:20,520 --> 01:02:22,440
Speaker 4: really really interesting right now. Wide open, yeah, it is,

1364
01:02:22,480 --> 01:02:24,920
Speaker 4: and it's a lot one of the things where obviously

1365
01:02:25,200 --> 01:02:28,520
Speaker 4: the last four years possibly I mean the Chiefs were

1366
01:02:28,560 --> 01:02:31,080
Speaker 4: the favorites coming out of the AFC, and now I

1367
01:02:31,080 --> 01:02:32,920
Speaker 4: think it's really wide open. You have Baltimore, you have

1368
01:02:32,960 --> 01:02:35,560
Speaker 4: the Chiefs, you have Buffalo, Like who would you I

1369
01:02:35,560 --> 01:02:38,840
Speaker 4: guess Cincinnati possibly if they're healthy enough and improve just

1370
01:02:38,920 --> 01:02:41,160
Speaker 4: a little bit on defense. But who do you see

1371
01:02:41,160 --> 01:02:43,800
Speaker 4: being the favorite right now in AFC? I know it's early,

1372
01:02:43,840 --> 01:02:45,520
Speaker 4: but just right now I.

1373
01:02:45,520 --> 01:02:49,000
Speaker 1: Would say Baltimore because of the you mentioned the Chiefs.

1374
01:02:49,800 --> 01:02:52,360
Speaker 1: Travis Kelce, I know he wanted to come back one

1375
01:02:52,400 --> 01:02:56,640
Speaker 1: more year and this has to be it he's fading fast. Yes, yes,

1376
01:02:57,080 --> 01:03:01,080
Speaker 1: I would go if I had to rank them, Baltimore, Buffalo,

1377
01:03:02,200 --> 01:03:06,040
Speaker 1: Kansas City, Houston. I just don't look. I know that

1378
01:03:06,080 --> 01:03:08,720
Speaker 1: they fired the Bengals, fire the defense coordinator, lou Ana

1379
01:03:08,800 --> 01:03:12,600
Speaker 1: Romo's now running the Colts defense Al Golden, who's been

1380
01:03:12,640 --> 01:03:16,120
Speaker 1: a college head coach and NFL assistant. We got to

1381
01:03:16,120 --> 01:03:18,080
Speaker 1: see what that defense looks like. So I would go

1382
01:03:18,520 --> 01:03:21,720
Speaker 1: Pittsburgh or Cincinnati. Now, no, again, are they getting Aaron

1383
01:03:21,760 --> 01:03:25,000
Speaker 1: Rodgers Pittsburgh? You know we expect him to, but he

1384
01:03:25,040 --> 01:03:27,000
Speaker 1: hasn't committed yet. If not, forget if they're not a

1385
01:03:27,000 --> 01:03:30,320
Speaker 1: playoff team without him. Kirk Cousins and I know they haven't.

1386
01:03:30,480 --> 01:03:32,880
Speaker 1: I'm told they have some interest in him. I don't

1387
01:03:32,880 --> 01:03:34,960
Speaker 1: know what he has left to thirty seven years old. Now, yeah,

1388
01:03:35,080 --> 01:03:38,400
Speaker 1: the NFC where people talk about Philly all the time.

1389
01:03:38,400 --> 01:03:40,960
Speaker 1: I get that to the Super Bowl winner, but they

1390
01:03:41,000 --> 01:03:43,720
Speaker 1: lost five defensive starters in creagency, so that that would

1391
01:03:43,760 --> 01:03:44,520
Speaker 1: worry me a little bit.

1392
01:03:44,800 --> 01:03:48,320
Speaker 4: No, Adam is crazy. I was saying, it's the NFL

1393
01:03:48,480 --> 01:03:52,760
Speaker 4: is the only only I think profession where I mean,

1394
01:03:52,800 --> 01:03:54,760
Speaker 4: obviously I think there's others, but I'm just saying because

1395
01:03:54,760 --> 01:03:57,520
Speaker 4: we were talking about right now is you can get

1396
01:03:57,560 --> 01:03:59,840
Speaker 4: fired for being on the worst defense in Cincinnati and

1397
01:03:59,880 --> 01:04:01,800
Speaker 4: go and get the same get the same jobs.

1398
01:04:01,920 --> 01:04:05,400
Speaker 1: It's incredible crazy, I know it is Kurry. What's interesting

1399
01:04:05,400 --> 01:04:08,240
Speaker 1: about him is this is the guy who got He

1400
01:04:08,240 --> 01:04:11,800
Speaker 1: helped him get to the Super Bowl against the Rams four

1401
01:04:11,880 --> 01:04:14,760
Speaker 1: years ago. And then yeah, they were they were. I

1402
01:04:14,800 --> 01:04:16,720
Speaker 1: know some teams told me they thought that their defense

1403
01:04:16,760 --> 01:04:18,960
Speaker 1: at times is not competitive, which you don't really hear

1404
01:04:19,000 --> 01:04:21,520
Speaker 1: a lot of. It's kind of damning and I totally

1405
01:04:21,520 --> 01:04:24,919
Speaker 1: get why they fired him now, lou Off, it takes

1406
01:04:25,400 --> 01:04:28,480
Speaker 1: you by the way the cultures are absolutely expecting him

1407
01:04:28,760 --> 01:04:34,080
Speaker 1: to be very aggressive where his predecessor was not so

1408
01:04:35,200 --> 01:04:37,680
Speaker 1: Gus Ramsey, so that we'll see what happens there. But

1409
01:04:38,000 --> 01:04:39,840
Speaker 1: what we love about the NFL is right when we

1410
01:04:39,840 --> 01:04:42,680
Speaker 1: think we know something, something changes. So it's gonna be

1411
01:04:42,680 --> 01:04:44,840
Speaker 1: a fun year. Guys. We have the draft now, we're

1412
01:04:44,880 --> 01:04:48,600
Speaker 1: in May. You know, OTAs will the veterans will be

1413
01:04:48,600 --> 01:04:50,880
Speaker 1: in you by the end of the month and we'll

1414
01:04:50,920 --> 01:04:53,280
Speaker 1: get a better idea. But the draft definitely gave us some.

1415
01:04:53,240 --> 01:04:56,280
Speaker 3: Clothes last one for me, Like you said, it's super early.

1416
01:04:56,480 --> 01:04:59,880
Speaker 3: But online their speculation that Lions defensive end. Eight to

1417
01:05:00,120 --> 01:05:01,920
Speaker 3: Hutchinson is.

1418
01:05:01,400 --> 01:05:05,240
Speaker 2: Not recovering the way maybe he should be. Any truth that,

1419
01:05:05,400 --> 01:05:08,640
Speaker 2: any truth to that should be. If you're a Lions fan,

1420
01:05:08,720 --> 01:05:09,960
Speaker 2: be a little bit worried about eight.

1421
01:05:10,160 --> 01:05:12,320
Speaker 1: I know, I mean he's been running. I mean he's

1422
01:05:12,360 --> 01:05:15,680
Speaker 1: been running a lot that. Yeah, it doesn't seem to

1423
01:05:15,720 --> 01:05:18,480
Speaker 1: be a problem. They know they're going to get this done. Uh,

1424
01:05:18,520 --> 01:05:19,760
Speaker 1: this is a goal for them to get it done

1425
01:05:19,760 --> 01:05:22,160
Speaker 1: by training camp. I don't when I look at the lines,

1426
01:05:22,200 --> 01:05:24,880
Speaker 1: I don't really worry about too much. They're they're pretty

1427
01:05:24,920 --> 01:05:26,760
Speaker 1: aggressive to take care of their players. And we didn't

1428
01:05:26,760 --> 01:05:29,320
Speaker 1: talk about the Lions. They're right there. Their problem was

1429
01:05:29,360 --> 01:05:33,040
Speaker 1: their past rush without Hutchinson, they just were abominable. Yeah,

1430
01:05:33,400 --> 01:05:35,360
Speaker 1: the fact that if you saw it, Washington do to them,

1431
01:05:35,360 --> 01:05:37,760
Speaker 1: they couldn't even compete. They need to take a look

1432
01:05:37,760 --> 01:05:40,600
Speaker 1: at themselves here that I don't say they've peaked, but

1433
01:05:40,960 --> 01:05:44,360
Speaker 1: their past rush is a problem, and I'm not so

1434
01:05:44,440 --> 01:05:46,360
Speaker 1: sure it's going to happen. They didn't really address it

1435
01:05:46,560 --> 01:05:49,160
Speaker 1: in the draft. For free agency, they they addressed air

1436
01:05:49,240 --> 01:05:52,960
Speaker 1: detackle situation, but they did not address their edge rusher problem,

1437
01:05:53,000 --> 01:05:56,120
Speaker 1: which was a major issue that to me folks. You

1438
01:05:56,200 --> 01:05:58,040
Speaker 1: know you bring that up. Man. See, that's something we're

1439
01:05:58,040 --> 01:05:59,560
Speaker 1: gonna have to talk about as we get closer to

1440
01:05:59,560 --> 01:06:01,760
Speaker 1: training camp. That's a major question to me for the

1441
01:06:01,800 --> 01:06:02,840
Speaker 1: lines going forward.

1442
01:06:02,560 --> 01:06:06,240
Speaker 4: Here, Adam. You know, you remind me of a really

1443
01:06:06,240 --> 01:06:10,120
Speaker 4: famous cartoon character that explored all over the world. Her

1444
01:06:10,200 --> 01:06:14,040
Speaker 4: name was Dora the Explorer. And you give me that

1445
01:06:14,160 --> 01:06:16,600
Speaker 4: mindset during the NFL preseason and you go to all

1446
01:06:16,640 --> 01:06:21,040
Speaker 4: these camps, Yeah, which one are you most I guess

1447
01:06:21,080 --> 01:06:23,720
Speaker 4: anxious or excited to get to to see to, you know,

1448
01:06:24,160 --> 01:06:27,360
Speaker 4: kind of carry on the legacy of HM.

1449
01:06:27,560 --> 01:06:29,880
Speaker 1: I would say the Chargers at the Bolt in their

1450
01:06:29,880 --> 01:06:33,240
Speaker 1: second year in El Segundo, which is kut Boy. That

1451
01:06:33,360 --> 01:06:35,800
Speaker 1: was an odd camp. That's like in the Boy in

1452
01:06:35,840 --> 01:06:38,840
Speaker 1: the back of an industrial park. You know, that was

1453
01:06:38,840 --> 01:06:42,080
Speaker 1: their first year, last summer there. Just because there should

1454
01:06:42,120 --> 01:06:44,560
Speaker 1: be some hype with this team with Harball second year, yep,

1455
01:06:45,160 --> 01:06:47,160
Speaker 1: you know, people didn't know what to expect and they

1456
01:06:47,200 --> 01:06:49,920
Speaker 1: were much better than I expected. That would be a

1457
01:06:49,960 --> 01:06:53,480
Speaker 1: good one. I'm just taking a look at some of

1458
01:06:53,520 --> 01:06:55,200
Speaker 1: the teams I look forward to traveling to. You know,

1459
01:06:55,880 --> 01:06:57,880
Speaker 1: I'm absolutely going there. I've been there. I'm not to

1460
01:06:58,000 --> 01:07:01,400
Speaker 1: visit this team since Stuff Peterson's first year in Jacksonville.

1461
01:07:01,400 --> 01:07:04,720
Speaker 1: But that's with Travis Hunter. Yeah, I am so looking

1462
01:07:04,760 --> 01:07:07,560
Speaker 1: forward to see how they use him. Uh, there's no

1463
01:07:07,640 --> 01:07:10,200
Speaker 1: question about it. I cannot wait to see the Jaguars.

1464
01:07:10,200 --> 01:07:11,640
Speaker 1: I know, it's kind of funny, like Jaguars, you care

1465
01:07:11,680 --> 01:07:14,480
Speaker 1: about the Jaguars. It's just carry the way carry set

1466
01:07:14,480 --> 01:07:16,920
Speaker 1: that up is absolutely right. It's where am I intrigued?

1467
01:07:17,000 --> 01:07:17,480
Speaker 4: Right?

1468
01:07:18,680 --> 01:07:21,120
Speaker 1: And then and then here's another one. I was with

1469
01:07:21,240 --> 01:07:23,840
Speaker 1: the Commanders their first week in training camp last year.

1470
01:07:24,360 --> 01:07:27,240
Speaker 1: Now we have massive expectations. Can they close the gap

1471
01:07:27,760 --> 01:07:29,720
Speaker 1: in a division where no one has won back to

1472
01:07:29,760 --> 01:07:30,960
Speaker 1: back since two thousand and four?

1473
01:07:31,760 --> 01:07:33,400
Speaker 4: There it is, man.

1474
01:07:33,600 --> 01:07:35,080
Speaker 3: Adam one more, one more for you?

1475
01:07:35,320 --> 01:07:35,600
Speaker 1: Sure?

1476
01:07:35,920 --> 01:07:37,960
Speaker 3: What do you what do you make of Bill Belichick

1477
01:07:38,040 --> 01:07:39,000
Speaker 3: and his new girlfriends?

1478
01:07:39,880 --> 01:07:40,560
Speaker 4: So this is this?

1479
01:07:41,600 --> 01:07:48,680
Speaker 1: You throw that in? You throw that in? Yeah, I look,

1480
01:07:48,720 --> 01:07:52,600
Speaker 1: it's definitely odd. Bill's got to hire a real PR person. Yeah,

1481
01:07:52,640 --> 01:07:55,400
Speaker 1: I would say, since you brought this up, that's got

1482
01:07:55,400 --> 01:07:59,840
Speaker 1: to happen. And and then and you know CBS deny,

1483
01:08:00,160 --> 01:08:01,680
Speaker 1: you know, because they did the Actually I saw it

1484
01:08:01,760 --> 01:08:03,760
Speaker 1: last Sunday that the interview with him on the book

1485
01:08:04,200 --> 01:08:06,560
Speaker 1: Get Everything Straighten Up? Before you you do an interview.

1486
01:08:06,600 --> 01:08:10,040
Speaker 1: That's just ridiculous. That should not happen. I know someone's

1487
01:08:10,040 --> 01:08:12,040
Speaker 1: pretty close to Belichick who's known him almost his whole life.

1488
01:08:12,040 --> 01:08:14,600
Speaker 1: So he's pretty happy with his new girlfriend, who was

1489
01:08:14,600 --> 01:08:18,200
Speaker 1: obviously much younger. Yeah, good for Bill. They just need

1490
01:08:18,240 --> 01:08:19,720
Speaker 1: to keep this out of the headlines. This whole sits

1491
01:08:19,760 --> 01:08:23,840
Speaker 1: just ridiculous. Yeah yeah. Let him in his his coaching

1492
01:08:23,880 --> 01:08:27,479
Speaker 1: career well into his seventies now at seventy two, and

1493
01:08:27,520 --> 01:08:29,920
Speaker 1: you know, hopefully he's happy. And you know, it's a

1494
01:08:29,920 --> 01:08:32,120
Speaker 1: shame that this all got blown up and no one's

1495
01:08:32,120 --> 01:08:34,120
Speaker 1: really talking about this book. They're talking about his girlfriend.

1496
01:08:34,120 --> 01:08:34,920
Speaker 4: That's not what I want.

1497
01:08:35,080 --> 01:08:38,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, no, not not ideal, but she's like his CEO,

1498
01:08:38,280 --> 01:08:39,280
Speaker 2: his personal.

1499
01:08:39,280 --> 01:08:43,160
Speaker 1: It is definitely bizarre. I this will be a discussion

1500
01:08:43,160 --> 01:08:44,679
Speaker 1: if we were all having some beer somewhere.

1501
01:08:44,840 --> 01:08:46,880
Speaker 3: Absolutely, I never.

1502
01:08:46,760 --> 01:08:49,920
Speaker 1: Met, Yeah, has never met. So maybe some day, Well

1503
01:08:50,040 --> 01:08:51,280
Speaker 1: when I go to go out.

1504
01:08:51,200 --> 01:08:53,760
Speaker 2: To LA the next time, hopefully, Yeah, let us know

1505
01:08:53,880 --> 01:08:57,280
Speaker 2: for sure, Yes, at Caplin or NFL inside or you

1506
01:08:57,320 --> 01:08:59,759
Speaker 2: can find him on eggs at Kaplan NFL.

1507
01:09:00,000 --> 01:09:03,000
Speaker 3: Thank you so much. Talk to you next week. Alright bye,

1508
01:09:03,920 --> 01:09:07,040
Speaker 3: all right. The score in the NBA Martin Weiss has it.

1509
01:09:07,160 --> 01:09:08,479
Speaker 3: What's going on over there?

1510
01:09:09,080 --> 01:09:09,439
Speaker 4: All right?

1511
01:09:09,439 --> 01:09:09,599
Speaker 1: Now?

1512
01:09:09,640 --> 01:09:12,840
Speaker 12: The Indiana Pacers with a seven point lead, forty to

1513
01:09:12,920 --> 01:09:16,880
Speaker 12: thirty three over the Cleveland Cavaliers, nine thirty left in

1514
01:09:16,960 --> 01:09:17,800
Speaker 12: the first half.

1515
01:09:18,120 --> 01:09:19,200
Speaker 4: Is this what you expected?

1516
01:09:20,640 --> 01:09:20,920
Speaker 3: Sure?

1517
01:09:21,000 --> 01:09:22,840
Speaker 2: I thought it was gonna be competitive, but I still

1518
01:09:22,840 --> 01:09:24,080
Speaker 2: think Cleveland wins this game.

1519
01:09:25,160 --> 01:09:26,160
Speaker 4: Are you already you hurt?

1520
01:09:26,200 --> 01:09:26,280
Speaker 1: My?

1521
01:09:26,439 --> 01:09:27,720
Speaker 4: I think. I don't know if you heard me or not,

1522
01:09:27,760 --> 01:09:29,120
Speaker 4: but I said it's going to be a close game,

1523
01:09:29,160 --> 01:09:32,000
Speaker 4: and yeah, yeah, these this team is the Pacers are

1524
01:09:32,000 --> 01:09:33,759
Speaker 4: gonna win some games in this series. Okay?

1525
01:09:33,920 --> 01:09:34,640
Speaker 3: Yeah?

1526
01:09:34,800 --> 01:09:37,400
Speaker 4: Are they gonna win four games in this yearies? Okay? Alright,

1527
01:09:38,720 --> 01:09:41,720
Speaker 4: I just want to check that's okay, three, okay, four.

1528
01:09:41,760 --> 01:09:42,719
Speaker 4: It's a big difference.

1529
01:09:43,800 --> 01:09:46,679
Speaker 12: Let's see who's leading to turn Let's see Tyree Teleburnion

1530
01:09:46,720 --> 01:09:49,599
Speaker 12: has seven right now, he's three for three from the floor.

1531
01:09:50,240 --> 01:09:54,040
Speaker 12: Pascal Siakam with twelve that leads the Pacers. The Cavaliers

1532
01:09:54,080 --> 01:09:57,479
Speaker 12: being led with by Donovan Mitchell, He's got eleven. Darius

1533
01:09:57,560 --> 01:10:01,080
Speaker 12: Garland is out for this game. He's got a toe injury,

1534
01:10:01,120 --> 01:10:03,439
Speaker 12: the same toe that's been bothering him for a while.

1535
01:10:03,840 --> 01:10:07,400
Speaker 12: It looks like basically just count on Darius Garland to

1536
01:10:07,479 --> 01:10:09,760
Speaker 12: be out until he's not, Like you know what I mean,

1537
01:10:09,800 --> 01:10:12,040
Speaker 12: It's kind of like we're kind of like every game waiting,

1538
01:10:12,080 --> 01:10:14,560
Speaker 12: every game waiting is just the news is when he

1539
01:10:14,640 --> 01:10:18,439
Speaker 12: comes back, not that he's out. We're about three hours

1540
01:10:18,479 --> 01:10:20,960
Speaker 12: away from tip of Game seven for the Warriors and

1541
01:10:21,000 --> 01:10:24,640
Speaker 12: the Rockets. Golden State will not have Gary Payton the

1588
01:12:16,000 --> 01:12:17,439
Speaker 3: that next. Don't go anywhere.

1589
01:12:17,520 --> 01:12:21,599
Speaker 2: Fox Sports Sunday, Welcome back, everybody, Fox Sports Sunday. I

1590
01:12:21,600 --> 01:12:25,719
Speaker 2: am Monci Bolangos alongside former All Pro safety carry Roads,

1591
01:12:25,720 --> 01:12:28,960
Speaker 2: hanging out with you. Game one of the Eastern Conference

1592
01:12:28,960 --> 01:12:32,639
Speaker 2: semi Finals in the NBA continues between the Pacers and

1593
01:12:33,040 --> 01:12:34,760
Speaker 2: the Cleveland Cavaliers.

1594
01:12:34,920 --> 01:12:36,840
Speaker 3: Pacers are up fifty to.

1595
01:12:36,760 --> 01:12:40,759
Speaker 2: Forty two halfway through the second quarter. Know, Darius Garland

1596
01:12:40,760 --> 01:12:43,200
Speaker 2: once again for Cleveland, and we said this was going

1597
01:12:43,240 --> 01:12:44,360
Speaker 2: to be a competitive series.

1598
01:12:44,520 --> 01:12:47,360
Speaker 3: We said that. You even said, oh, without Darius Garland,

1599
01:12:47,560 --> 01:12:52,040
Speaker 3: the Pacers haven't even more chance to maybe squeak out

1600
01:12:52,040 --> 01:12:53,720
Speaker 3: a win. But I don't think either of us are

1601
01:12:53,720 --> 01:12:56,720
Speaker 3: thinking they would take this game right, not in Cleveland,

1602
01:12:56,840 --> 01:12:57,519
Speaker 3: not Game one.

1603
01:12:57,960 --> 01:13:00,519
Speaker 4: I mean, yes, that's why I said be tight. I

1604
01:13:00,520 --> 01:13:01,680
Speaker 4: thought it could be a tulso.

1605
01:13:01,520 --> 01:13:04,920
Speaker 2: Absolutely it's gonna get I think all the entire series

1606
01:13:05,000 --> 01:13:05,599
Speaker 2: is gonna be tight.

1607
01:13:05,680 --> 01:13:06,000
Speaker 3: I do.

1608
01:13:06,080 --> 01:13:09,840
Speaker 2: I just think Cleveland will win it. Uh, and they're

1609
01:13:09,880 --> 01:13:12,719
Speaker 2: cutting their deficit by they've cut it by five. Indiana

1610
01:13:12,760 --> 01:13:14,160
Speaker 2: was up by ten out one White and now it's

1611
01:13:14,200 --> 01:13:16,920
Speaker 2: just five. They're on an eleven three run in the

1612
01:13:16,960 --> 01:13:17,920
Speaker 2: last like minute and.

1613
01:13:17,880 --> 01:13:18,839
Speaker 3: Forty two seconds.

1614
01:13:19,479 --> 01:13:22,040
Speaker 2: Yeah, but down to five minutes in the first half

1615
01:13:22,640 --> 01:13:25,400
Speaker 2: and they're down by five to the Pacers. So we'll

1616
01:13:25,439 --> 01:13:27,840
Speaker 2: see how this one goes. Game one of the Eastern

1617
01:13:27,880 --> 01:13:28,960
Speaker 2: Conference on my finals, and.

1618
01:13:28,880 --> 01:13:31,400
Speaker 3: Of course there's Game seven. Yes, the two greatest words

1619
01:13:31,400 --> 01:13:35,800
Speaker 3: in sports. Game seven. Yeah, unless you're Clippers. Unless you're

1620
01:13:35,840 --> 01:13:37,400
Speaker 3: the Clippers, and that means nothing to you.

1621
01:13:37,479 --> 01:13:40,040
Speaker 4: Yeah. No, that means that means you on the early vacation,

1622
01:13:40,160 --> 01:13:42,280
Speaker 4: you're on an early you're not playing that game anyway.

1623
01:13:42,439 --> 01:13:45,439
Speaker 3: Yeah, exactly, exactly. But we haven't done this in a

1624
01:13:45,479 --> 01:13:47,200
Speaker 3: few weeks. So let's have a little fun with a

1625
01:13:47,240 --> 01:13:49,040
Speaker 3: little carry on or off.

1626
01:13:49,920 --> 01:13:53,160
Speaker 4: Yeah, down, down, down, down, down down.

1627
01:13:53,280 --> 01:13:56,720
Speaker 3: So good, all right, Carrie, I'm gonna give you some

1628
01:13:56,840 --> 01:13:59,800
Speaker 3: stuff and you're gonna tell me whether you carry on

1629
01:14:00,200 --> 01:14:03,800
Speaker 3: you carry off with it? All right, let's start here.

1630
01:14:04,080 --> 01:14:05,439
Speaker 3: I got so many things I want.

1631
01:14:05,280 --> 01:14:05,960
Speaker 4: To throw at you.

1632
01:14:06,080 --> 01:14:08,160
Speaker 3: I am I just like where do I starve? So

1633
01:14:08,160 --> 01:14:10,000
Speaker 3: many things I want to throw at you, all right,

1634
01:14:10,760 --> 01:14:14,680
Speaker 3: going to a sporting event and repping a team that

1635
01:14:14,840 --> 01:14:15,639
Speaker 3: isn't playing.

1636
01:14:17,160 --> 01:14:21,200
Speaker 4: Uh, I'm so off that. Yeah, you ask that, I

1637
01:14:21,240 --> 01:14:23,160
Speaker 4: am off that. Yeah. I mean if you go onto

1638
01:14:23,200 --> 01:14:27,040
Speaker 4: a game and there's two teams that are participating, and

1639
01:14:27,120 --> 01:14:29,200
Speaker 4: you want to be the odd ball that wears the

1640
01:14:30,120 --> 01:14:32,719
Speaker 4: team that's not even correlated to any of those games. Exactly,

1641
01:14:32,840 --> 01:14:36,280
Speaker 4: stay at home, stay or go to the bar something,

1642
01:14:36,400 --> 01:14:38,280
Speaker 4: but don't go to the game and be that person

1643
01:14:38,320 --> 01:14:39,400
Speaker 4: that causes ruckus.

1644
01:14:39,720 --> 01:14:42,400
Speaker 3: Stay away, Carrie, thanks so much for saying that.

1645
01:14:42,520 --> 01:14:45,240
Speaker 2: So Clippers had a watch party. The first one got

1646
01:14:45,280 --> 01:14:48,120
Speaker 2: into it Dome. So this was game three, and.

1647
01:14:48,040 --> 01:14:50,120
Speaker 3: A guy shows up wearing a Lakers jersey.

1648
01:14:50,840 --> 01:14:55,360
Speaker 7: I'm just like, you're asking, you're asking for problems here,

1649
01:14:55,840 --> 01:14:59,960
Speaker 7: Clippers watch party into a dome against the Denver nugg

1650
01:15:00,320 --> 01:15:04,200
Speaker 7: and you're wearing a Lakers jersey. I went to game four,

1651
01:15:04,400 --> 01:15:06,920
Speaker 7: the second one at into it Dome, and I get

1652
01:15:06,920 --> 01:15:08,840
Speaker 7: out of the car, start walking towards into a dome

1653
01:15:09,040 --> 01:15:10,800
Speaker 7: and I see a gentleman in front of me wearing

1654
01:15:11,000 --> 01:15:12,280
Speaker 7: a Lakers jacket.

1655
01:15:12,560 --> 01:15:15,320
Speaker 4: I am just like, what are we doing this?

1656
01:15:15,479 --> 01:15:17,240
Speaker 2: I don't get it, and this isn't like you showing

1657
01:15:17,280 --> 01:15:19,760
Speaker 2: up wearing a Yankees hat to a basketball game, right, Like,

1658
01:15:19,840 --> 01:15:22,920
Speaker 2: that's not what this is. This is a decision that

1659
01:15:23,040 --> 01:15:27,400
Speaker 2: you made specifically against the Clippers.

1660
01:15:27,479 --> 01:15:30,519
Speaker 4: Let's insight a riot. Let's let's let's.

1661
01:15:30,280 --> 01:15:33,240
Speaker 2: Start problems here. And I want I have to hold

1662
01:15:33,280 --> 01:15:35,439
Speaker 2: my tongue. I'm just like, why why are you here?

1663
01:15:36,479 --> 01:15:36,599
Speaker 1: Oh?

1664
01:15:36,680 --> 01:15:38,719
Speaker 2: I wanted to. I wanted to, but you know, Sean

1665
01:15:38,800 --> 01:15:40,240
Speaker 2: was like, I don't do anything. I don't want to

1666
01:15:40,240 --> 01:15:40,960
Speaker 2: have to fight someone you.

1667
01:15:40,960 --> 01:15:47,280
Speaker 3: Can exactly not me. I don't say anything. Okay, Carrie,

1668
01:15:47,320 --> 01:15:48,560
Speaker 3: are you on or off.

1669
01:15:50,000 --> 01:15:56,240
Speaker 2: College athletes or just like young people mimicking their idols?

1670
01:15:56,960 --> 01:16:02,200
Speaker 4: Mmm, I'm off that as well, off that as well

1671
01:16:02,600 --> 01:16:05,880
Speaker 4: as well. Yeah, I mean yes, that's gonna be always

1672
01:16:05,880 --> 01:16:09,040
Speaker 4: comparisons absolutely to you. Whatever your game is and how

1673
01:16:09,080 --> 01:16:12,120
Speaker 4: you play your style, Like that's part of it. You

1674
01:16:12,160 --> 01:16:14,400
Speaker 4: have to especially as a college game, you have to

1675
01:16:14,400 --> 01:16:18,280
Speaker 4: crack your own style, your own type of name for yourself.

1676
01:16:18,400 --> 01:16:21,720
Speaker 4: So don't start associating yourself to somebody else because that

1677
01:16:21,840 --> 01:16:26,120
Speaker 4: gives them a ceiling or a bottom of who you

1678
01:16:26,120 --> 01:16:28,000
Speaker 4: could be. And you don't want to be that person,

1679
01:16:28,600 --> 01:16:32,400
Speaker 4: not that young. So I'm off that, off that Nebraska quarterback.

1680
01:16:32,560 --> 01:16:35,840
Speaker 4: I know you're going kill in right, Ola, That's right.

1681
01:16:35,920 --> 01:16:39,280
Speaker 3: Okay has signed an nil deal with Adidas. You know

1682
01:16:39,320 --> 01:16:40,760
Speaker 3: who Adidas is also signed with.

1683
01:16:40,880 --> 01:16:43,840
Speaker 4: I will guess his cousin, Patrick Mahomes his cousin. He

1684
01:16:43,880 --> 01:16:46,280
Speaker 4: would he looks exactly.

1685
01:16:46,160 --> 01:16:48,599
Speaker 3: Like Patrick Mahomes because he's trying to look like that.

1686
01:16:48,680 --> 01:16:53,040
Speaker 3: His hair, he wears, the bandana, the glasses and Patrick Mahomes.

1687
01:16:53,040 --> 01:16:54,400
Speaker 3: We have sound of that, but I don't know how

1688
01:16:54,439 --> 01:16:56,719
Speaker 3: long it is, but he basically like it's it's old,

1689
01:16:56,920 --> 01:16:58,640
Speaker 3: but he talks about it and he's just kind of like,

1690
01:16:58,680 --> 01:17:00,679
Speaker 3: oh yeah, no, that's cool. And it's like, what else

1691
01:17:00,720 --> 01:17:03,360
Speaker 3: is Patrick Mahomes gonna say what? He can't say what

1692
01:17:03,400 --> 01:17:05,880
Speaker 3: he actually wants to say, which is like, this is creepy, bro.

1693
01:17:06,240 --> 01:17:07,320
Speaker 4: Stop looking like me.

1694
01:17:07,600 --> 01:17:10,080
Speaker 2: You are not a seven year old little boy who's

1695
01:17:10,120 --> 01:17:10,960
Speaker 2: idolizing me.

1696
01:17:11,280 --> 01:17:14,080
Speaker 3: You're a grown ass man and you look like me.

1697
01:17:15,400 --> 01:17:18,000
Speaker 4: What I mean, even do his warm ups like he's

1698
01:17:18,240 --> 01:17:19,479
Speaker 4: even his side of play.

1699
01:17:20,000 --> 01:17:23,080
Speaker 3: No, I don't like that at all. Like if I'm

1700
01:17:23,080 --> 01:17:27,160
Speaker 3: Patrick Mahomes, I'm literally like, guys, somebody, get somebody tell

1701
01:17:27,200 --> 01:17:27,840
Speaker 3: him I don't like this.

1702
01:17:27,960 --> 01:17:29,880
Speaker 2: But I can't say that out loud because it would

1703
01:17:29,880 --> 01:17:31,000
Speaker 2: make him look soft.

1704
01:17:31,040 --> 01:17:33,920
Speaker 4: So is this another sing? Is this like single black

1705
01:17:33,960 --> 01:17:35,759
Speaker 4: male instead of single white female?

1706
01:17:36,080 --> 01:17:42,400
Speaker 3: Yes? Yes, yes, absolutely absolutely. All right, last morning here,

1707
01:17:42,400 --> 01:17:44,120
Speaker 3: because I think we're coming close on time.

1708
01:17:44,439 --> 01:17:47,800
Speaker 2: How do you feel carey about movies being re released

1709
01:17:47,960 --> 01:17:48,840
Speaker 2: out into the theater?

1710
01:17:49,040 --> 01:17:54,200
Speaker 4: Man, Oh, I'm carrying on them care Yeah. Yeah, there

1711
01:17:54,240 --> 01:17:57,120
Speaker 4: are some you know, block busters or films that you

1712
01:17:57,160 --> 01:17:59,559
Speaker 4: know it deserves the theatrical.

1713
01:17:59,160 --> 01:18:01,800
Speaker 3: Absolutely repri You don't get it at home like that.

1714
01:18:01,920 --> 01:18:04,639
Speaker 4: Oh, like it's it's a real thing. I'm a theater guy.

1715
01:18:04,760 --> 01:18:07,160
Speaker 4: You are as like if there's a big movie that

1716
01:18:07,240 --> 01:18:10,000
Speaker 4: if there's a Jaws or Star Wars or a big,

1717
01:18:10,040 --> 01:18:11,680
Speaker 4: a big movie that you want to go out and

1718
01:18:11,680 --> 01:18:14,400
Speaker 4: see at the theaters again, re release it and give

1719
01:18:14,439 --> 01:18:15,599
Speaker 4: it to the give it to the public.

1720
01:18:15,680 --> 01:18:17,479
Speaker 3: Well you just hit it right on the nose. It's

1721
01:18:17,479 --> 01:18:19,400
Speaker 3: May the fourth with you.

1722
01:18:19,800 --> 01:18:22,880
Speaker 2: Star Wars did bring out Revenge of the Sith for

1723
01:18:22,960 --> 01:18:26,120
Speaker 2: the anniversary, and it's like, I'm so for that because,

1724
01:18:26,400 --> 01:18:28,840
Speaker 2: like you said, there are certain movies that you need

1725
01:18:29,120 --> 01:18:32,720
Speaker 2: not just the bigger screen, but the surround sound of it,

1726
01:18:33,160 --> 01:18:36,280
Speaker 2: Like when there's an explosion or a car chase and

1727
01:18:36,320 --> 01:18:39,040
Speaker 2: you kind of can hear the car screeching through? And

1728
01:18:39,080 --> 01:18:42,160
Speaker 2: this you need that in a movie theater. And same

1729
01:18:42,160 --> 01:18:45,280
Speaker 2: thing with like a scary movie. Like I hearing nothing

1730
01:18:45,320 --> 01:18:48,479
Speaker 2: in a giant empty room with people, Yes, but like

1731
01:18:48,479 --> 01:18:50,759
Speaker 2: nothing else, and you hear nothing is a lot scarier

1732
01:18:50,800 --> 01:18:52,519
Speaker 2: than me sitting on my couch.

1733
01:18:52,960 --> 01:18:54,519
Speaker 4: Well you know, I'm a couch guy. You know that.

1734
01:18:54,560 --> 01:18:56,360
Speaker 4: But when I'm at the theater, I go at the

1735
01:18:56,479 --> 01:18:58,880
Speaker 4: I go at the old people time. Yes, because I'm

1736
01:18:58,880 --> 01:19:01,320
Speaker 4: an old guy. I'm there by myself, so I have

1737
01:19:01,360 --> 01:19:04,840
Speaker 4: the whole theater. So a nice little, nice little time

1738
01:19:04,880 --> 01:19:05,880
Speaker 4: to the theater, it gets you.

1739
01:19:05,920 --> 01:19:08,799
Speaker 3: I'm with you. I'm all about re releasing big movies

1740
01:19:09,080 --> 01:19:11,640
Speaker 3: in movie theaters every so often. Don't do it all

1741
01:19:11,640 --> 01:19:14,000
Speaker 3: the time, but every so often because it keeps us

1742
01:19:14,040 --> 01:19:16,439
Speaker 3: wanting more, and we hope you want more. Because we

1743
01:19:16,520 --> 01:19:19,759
Speaker 3: got one more hour here on Fox Sports Radio. I'm Manzy,

1744

Speaker 3: he's carried, don't go anywhere. That's right. What's up? Everybody?

Speaker 3: met Tres. That's right, that's good. Yeah, Fox Sports Sunday.

1747
01:19:32,439 --> 01:19:36,160
Speaker 2: I'm Monzi Blayas he's carry hanging out with you, talking

1748
01:19:36,200 --> 01:19:39,880
Speaker 2: all things NBA, talking a little NFL, but we're gonna

1749
01:19:39,880 --> 01:19:43,400
Speaker 2: head back to the hardwood floor for the start of

1750
01:19:43,439 --> 01:19:47,400
Speaker 2: this hour. We do have the Pacers and the Cavaliers

1751
01:19:47,439 --> 01:19:50,559
Speaker 2: playing right now, and the Pacers, as you heard Martin

1752
01:19:50,600 --> 01:19:53,320
Speaker 2: Weiss say, are up on the Caps sixty two to

1753
01:19:53,360 --> 01:19:56,800
Speaker 2: fifty six right now. It's thirty seconds into before going

1754
01:19:56,840 --> 01:19:58,800
Speaker 2: into halftime, so plenty of game left.

1755
01:19:59,040 --> 01:20:01,320
Speaker 3: But Pacers up right now giving the Cavs a little

1756
01:20:01,400 --> 01:20:02,240
Speaker 3: run for their money.

1757
01:20:02,400 --> 01:20:04,679
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, yeah, this is gonna be a good fun series.

1758
01:20:04,720 --> 01:20:08,040
Speaker 4: Both teams can score a lot of points. Cleveland's defense

1759
01:20:08,120 --> 01:20:10,400
Speaker 4: is a little bit better than any than the Pacers,

1760
01:20:10,400 --> 01:20:11,799
Speaker 4: so it's gonna be exciting.

1761
01:20:12,040 --> 01:20:14,080
Speaker 2: But it's all about matchups, all about matchups, and it's

1762
01:20:14,080 --> 01:20:15,400
Speaker 2: all about adjustments.

1763
01:20:16,040 --> 01:20:21,040
Speaker 4: Yes, yes, in the playoffs, Yes, because I know where

1764
01:20:21,040 --> 01:20:22,880
Speaker 4: you're going with this, but let's let's go go ahead

1765
01:20:22,880 --> 01:20:24,559
Speaker 4: and get it going, Masie. What's going on?

1766
01:20:24,920 --> 01:20:28,880
Speaker 2: So it's all about adjustments in the playoffs, And we

1767
01:20:28,920 --> 01:20:34,240
Speaker 2: witnessed this past week the Lakers literally not adjust anything,

1768
01:20:34,760 --> 01:20:38,040
Speaker 2: and they let Rudy Gobert have the game of his life.

1769
01:20:38,120 --> 01:20:41,520
Speaker 4: Cook, cook, cook.

1770
01:20:40,680 --> 01:20:45,040
Speaker 2: And they have an easy win. The Minnesota Timberwolves, like

1771
01:20:45,400 --> 01:20:49,280
Speaker 2: good job, way to go. I did not anticipate that

1772
01:20:49,360 --> 01:20:52,160
Speaker 2: series going that way. I thought the series was going

1773
01:20:52,240 --> 01:20:54,640
Speaker 2: to go six, seven games. I thought all games were

1774
01:20:54,640 --> 01:20:56,920
Speaker 2: going to be really tight, and I thought the Lakers

1775
01:20:56,920 --> 01:20:59,080
Speaker 2: would win because of Luka Doncic.

1776
01:20:59,240 --> 01:21:01,200
Speaker 4: It's like tak so you got all the excess in

1777
01:21:01,240 --> 01:21:04,000
Speaker 4: the row and they're all wrong. You got you lost

1778
01:21:04,040 --> 01:21:04,800
Speaker 4: really quickly, too.

1779
01:21:04,920 --> 01:21:05,320
Speaker 3: Very quickly.

1780
01:21:05,360 --> 01:21:06,719
Speaker 4: A lot of people did, a lot of people picked

1781
01:21:06,720 --> 01:21:08,400
Speaker 4: the Lakers don't even win that series.

1782
01:21:09,280 --> 01:21:11,920
Speaker 3: I really did not, and and the Lakers just did

1783
01:21:12,000 --> 01:21:15,200
Speaker 3: not look good. Uh. And it was like a little bit.

1784
01:21:16,360 --> 01:21:18,439
Speaker 2: Mark Medina told us in the in the first hour

1785
01:21:18,479 --> 01:21:20,640
Speaker 2: when we spoke to him our NBA Insider, how the

1786
01:21:20,720 --> 01:21:22,600
Speaker 2: Lakers defense when they first.

1787
01:21:22,360 --> 01:21:24,000
Speaker 4: Got Luca looked so good.

1788
01:21:24,040 --> 01:21:26,960
Speaker 2: That's right, and you just saw that it could not

1789
01:21:27,040 --> 01:21:30,559
Speaker 2: carry to a seven game series. One game, two games

1790
01:21:30,640 --> 01:21:33,200
Speaker 2: off of different opponents is different, right, And then you

1791
01:21:33,400 --> 01:21:36,719
Speaker 2: face the same team over and over and everything changes.

1792
01:21:36,840 --> 01:21:40,040
Speaker 2: Maybe your plan goes out the window. But you have

1793
01:21:40,120 --> 01:21:42,000
Speaker 2: to let the plan go out the window. Yeah, you

1794
01:21:42,040 --> 01:21:43,760
Speaker 2: can just hold on to it just because you have

1795
01:21:43,800 --> 01:21:44,120
Speaker 2: a plan.

1796
01:21:44,240 --> 01:21:45,320
Speaker 4: Yep, JJ Reddick.

1797
01:21:45,479 --> 01:21:48,599
Speaker 3: You have to adjust, You have to adjust, and.

1798
01:21:48,520 --> 01:21:54,720
Speaker 4: You have to be an individual that is flexible and

1799
01:21:54,800 --> 01:21:59,479
Speaker 4: your ego cannot stand in the way. JJ Reddick, I've

1800
01:21:59,479 --> 01:22:02,599
Speaker 4: known him for a long time, not personally, but I've

1801
01:22:02,640 --> 01:22:04,840
Speaker 4: been along the ride with him for a while. I

1802
01:22:04,880 --> 01:22:06,400
Speaker 4: was a Duke fan, so I've known him at Duke.

1803
01:22:07,080 --> 01:22:10,240
Speaker 4: Didn't really come up huge in the big moments there.

1804
01:22:10,400 --> 01:22:13,640
Speaker 4: Always obviously one of the greatest players at Duke as

1805
01:22:13,640 --> 01:22:15,479
Speaker 4: far as scoring goes, but never could get them over

1806
01:22:15,479 --> 01:22:20,160
Speaker 4: the hump. His NBA career role player got to the Clippers.

1807
01:22:20,320 --> 01:22:23,000
Speaker 4: Your team played, played well, but in the big moments,

1808
01:22:23,080 --> 01:22:26,360
Speaker 4: wasn't there. And so when you have guys that are

1809
01:22:26,400 --> 01:22:31,600
Speaker 4: really analytical and usually operates from the brain and not

1810
01:22:31,760 --> 01:22:34,800
Speaker 4: from feel, those are the stubborn ones. Those are the

1811
01:22:34,800 --> 01:22:39,280
Speaker 4: ones that sometimes have a hard time being head coaches

1812
01:22:39,320 --> 01:22:41,639
Speaker 4: because you have to be flexible and not let your

1813
01:22:41,640 --> 01:22:44,760
Speaker 4: ego and what you think is the best way that

1814
01:22:44,840 --> 01:22:47,960
Speaker 4: you have a chance to win be the only way

1815
01:22:48,000 --> 01:22:49,639
Speaker 4: that you attack it. And I think that's what happened

1816
01:22:49,680 --> 01:22:52,599
Speaker 4: for the Lakers and JJ in his first playoff experience

1817
01:22:52,600 --> 01:22:53,080
Speaker 4: as a coach.

1818
01:22:53,200 --> 01:22:56,040
Speaker 2: Absolutely his first playoff experience as a coach, but has

1819
01:22:56,080 --> 01:22:58,320
Speaker 2: been there as a player and yeah, as a Clipper.

1820
01:22:58,479 --> 01:23:02,280
Speaker 2: Many moments in the playoffs where he missed open shots

1821
01:23:02,360 --> 01:23:06,240
Speaker 2: and just after being a great shooter, great shooter during

1822
01:23:06,280 --> 01:23:08,680
Speaker 2: the regular season. You know, he was so fun to

1823
01:23:09,080 --> 01:23:12,000
Speaker 2: have on the Clippers for so many years. But ego

1824
01:23:12,040 --> 01:23:14,559
Speaker 2: has always been described when it comes to talking about

1825
01:23:14,640 --> 01:23:17,519
Speaker 2: JJ Reddick. Some people even want to say he's arrogant

1826
01:23:17,760 --> 01:23:20,479
Speaker 2: by the way he comes off, because he is really smart. Yeah,

1827
01:23:20,560 --> 01:23:23,240
Speaker 2: and when he is analyzing a game, like when he

1828
01:23:23,360 --> 01:23:27,200
Speaker 2: was on ESPN and on TV, he was great. You

1829
01:23:27,320 --> 01:23:30,679
Speaker 2: felt like you he kind of put painted the picture

1830
01:23:30,720 --> 01:23:32,840
Speaker 2: in a different way and didn't say it the way

1831
01:23:32,880 --> 01:23:33,640
Speaker 2: everyone else says it.

1832
01:23:33,680 --> 01:23:36,840
Speaker 3: And I always appreciated that because his IQ on basketball's

1833
01:23:36,880 --> 01:23:38,160
Speaker 3: so high. You can see that.

1834
01:23:38,600 --> 01:23:42,840
Speaker 2: But in Game five against the Timberwolves, with Rudy Gobert

1835
01:23:43,000 --> 01:23:47,360
Speaker 2: just doing whatever he wanted, how JJ Reddick did not

1836
01:23:47,560 --> 01:23:51,960
Speaker 2: play Jackson Hayes for one second was beyond me.

1837
01:23:53,240 --> 01:23:55,479
Speaker 4: Beyond Yeah. He went to that game with the game

1838
01:23:55,520 --> 01:23:58,720
Speaker 4: plan set that he was not going to play Jackson Hayes, yep,

1839
01:23:59,160 --> 01:24:00,960
Speaker 4: and he stuck it at I mean, he literally put

1840
01:24:00,960 --> 01:24:02,920
Speaker 4: Maxi Kleeber in the game, who hasn't played a game

1841
01:24:02,960 --> 01:24:06,800
Speaker 4: in months, and so obviously he had no plans of

1842
01:24:06,840 --> 01:24:07,800
Speaker 4: playing Jackson Hayes.

1843
01:24:07,920 --> 01:24:10,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, and he said that to the media. Jackson Hayes

1844
01:24:10,400 --> 01:24:12,080
Speaker 2: was told ahead of game that he wasn't gonna play.

1845
01:24:12,120 --> 01:24:14,880
Speaker 2: He knew all that, Yeah, and to not why not

1846
01:24:15,040 --> 01:24:16,599
Speaker 2: try it? Why not change again?

1847
01:24:16,680 --> 01:24:18,760
Speaker 7: Goes with the ego and goes I like what you

1848
01:24:18,800 --> 01:24:20,800
Speaker 7: said that, Like when the head and.

1849
01:24:20,840 --> 01:24:23,080
Speaker 4: The heart don't when they're.

1850
01:24:22,920 --> 01:24:25,599
Speaker 7: Both not there and you need them both because sometimes

1851
01:24:25,640 --> 01:24:26,360
Speaker 7: you got to feel it out.

1852
01:24:26,400 --> 01:24:28,800
Speaker 3: It's like, this isn't working, Let's try what else are

1853
01:24:28,840 --> 01:24:31,080
Speaker 3: we losing? This is the end of your series. How

1854
01:24:31,120 --> 01:24:32,920
Speaker 3: you didn't try something else is beyond me.

1855
01:24:33,000 --> 01:24:35,559
Speaker 4: Obviously, go ahead, but think about it in life, right,

1856
01:24:35,600 --> 01:24:39,320
Speaker 4: Like when you're around people that are more heady than

1857
01:24:39,360 --> 01:24:41,720
Speaker 4: in their in their body and their heart, they make

1858
01:24:41,760 --> 01:24:44,559
Speaker 4: a lot of bad decisions. Yeah, because you're trying. You

1859
01:24:44,600 --> 01:24:47,000
Speaker 4: have this outlook of what you think is going to be,

1860
01:24:47,080 --> 01:24:51,120
Speaker 4: and then the calculations and possibilities of that. It becomes

1861
01:24:51,560 --> 01:24:54,920
Speaker 4: a mathematical problem equation instead of heart. And that's who

1862
01:24:54,960 --> 01:24:55,920
Speaker 4: he is. Absolutely.

1863
01:24:56,040 --> 01:24:57,400
Speaker 2: I was just gonna say, because in his head he

1864
01:24:57,479 --> 01:24:59,599
Speaker 2: was like, No, one plus one is two and this

1865
01:24:59,680 --> 01:25:00,320
Speaker 2: has to work.

1866
01:25:00,360 --> 01:25:02,080
Speaker 3: Yeah, there's no way this doesn't work.

1867
01:25:02,320 --> 01:25:04,880
Speaker 7: This is a math problem when in reality it's like, yeah,

1868
01:25:04,920 --> 01:25:06,720
Speaker 7: but try something else.

1869
01:25:06,479 --> 01:25:07,080
Speaker 3: In the moment.

1870
01:25:07,240 --> 01:25:11,559
Speaker 2: And to do it in an elimination game, to not

1871
01:25:11,640 --> 01:25:13,879
Speaker 2: want to change it up, it's a little bit alarming,

1872
01:25:13,920 --> 01:25:15,479
Speaker 2: if I'm being honest, if you're a Lakers fan, a

1873
01:25:15,479 --> 01:25:18,320
Speaker 2: little bit alarming that that's the approach he had. But

1874
01:25:18,400 --> 01:25:21,680
Speaker 2: it's like, does he just do you think his personality

1875
01:25:21,800 --> 01:25:24,560
Speaker 2: not just like he doesn't want to change because of

1876
01:25:24,600 --> 01:25:27,519
Speaker 2: his ego, but that he just tenses up in those

1877
01:25:27,560 --> 01:25:29,400
Speaker 2: moments instead of being zen.

1878
01:25:29,520 --> 01:25:33,160
Speaker 4: We've talked about Zen about there's certain people, certain players

1879
01:25:33,160 --> 01:25:36,200
Speaker 4: that have that issue. And that's that's why I brought

1880
01:25:36,240 --> 01:25:38,599
Speaker 4: up the playing career in his early career before these

1881
01:25:38,640 --> 01:25:42,920
Speaker 4: moments because the same things happened. Then you're not the

1882
01:25:42,920 --> 01:25:45,800
Speaker 4: best shooting in college basketball all year, and then you

1883
01:25:46,439 --> 01:25:49,960
Speaker 4: don't know how to shoot at us in high intensity moments, right,

1884
01:25:50,160 --> 01:25:52,840
Speaker 4: and then that carries over to the NBA and then

1885
01:25:53,120 --> 01:25:56,320
Speaker 4: in your first chance as a coach, Really good year

1886
01:25:56,360 --> 01:25:59,240
Speaker 4: from him, by the way coaching, but in that high

1887
01:25:59,280 --> 01:26:03,040
Speaker 4: intensity moment up the playoffs where the great ones are flexible.

1888
01:26:03,040 --> 01:26:05,600
Speaker 4: We talked about Rick carl earlier, right like he is

1889
01:26:05,680 --> 01:26:08,759
Speaker 4: going to make any change necessary to help his team

1890
01:26:08,840 --> 01:26:12,320
Speaker 4: have the advantage, and so it could be an experience

1891
01:26:12,400 --> 01:26:14,000
Speaker 4: thing here in this moment.

1892
01:26:14,360 --> 01:26:18,000
Speaker 3: But with his history, yes, it's hard to it's hard

1893
01:26:18,040 --> 01:26:21,479
Speaker 3: to separate the twos, right, It's like, no, we're seeing

1894
01:26:21,479 --> 01:26:23,479
Speaker 3: the same thing we've seen from JJ Reddick.

1895
01:26:23,640 --> 01:26:26,360
Speaker 7: It's just now he's on the sideline. Now can he

1896
01:26:26,720 --> 01:26:31,240
Speaker 7: break that mold? Can he change his own ways moving forward?

1897
01:26:31,439 --> 01:26:32,479
Speaker 7: That's the big question.

1898
01:26:32,640 --> 01:26:35,160
Speaker 2: Obviously, the Lakers are not going to fire him, that's

1899
01:26:35,280 --> 01:26:36,240
Speaker 2: not what's happening here.

1900
01:26:36,280 --> 01:26:37,599
Speaker 3: They're not going to get another coach.

1901
01:26:37,960 --> 01:26:41,280
Speaker 2: It was his first year and successful overall, just did

1902
01:26:41,320 --> 01:26:45,439
Speaker 2: not deliver in the playoffs, and it's like you just

1903
01:26:46,680 --> 01:26:48,800
Speaker 2: you want to see something different and the fact that

1904
01:26:48,840 --> 01:26:51,080
Speaker 2: he didn't again his first one, Yeah, there are ways

1905
01:26:51,080 --> 01:26:53,000
Speaker 2: to lose, and that was not a good way to lose.

1906
01:26:53,280 --> 01:26:55,479
Speaker 3: Where you just are like, how did you not play?

1907
01:26:55,760 --> 01:26:56,479
Speaker 4: Jackson Hayes.

1908
01:26:56,560 --> 01:26:58,240
Speaker 3: I can't get over that, Carrie. I could not watch

1909
01:26:58,280 --> 01:27:00,280
Speaker 3: in that game live. I can't get over how he's

1910
01:27:00,320 --> 01:27:01,160
Speaker 3: not changing this up?

1911
01:27:01,280 --> 01:27:04,479
Speaker 4: Well, I mean he actually made Shaq go on TV

1912
01:27:04,600 --> 01:27:08,559
Speaker 4: and say that Gobert was dominating, so he choked on

1913
01:27:08,600 --> 01:27:10,519
Speaker 4: his own words. He did. Yeah, so there you go.

1914
01:27:10,880 --> 01:27:11,840
Speaker 4: It was all of us did.

1915
01:27:11,960 --> 01:27:14,240
Speaker 3: All of us did because Rudy Gobert, that's not his style.

1916
01:27:14,920 --> 01:27:16,160
Speaker 3: Rudy Gobert is there to.

1917
01:27:16,600 --> 01:27:18,920
Speaker 2: Block the rim and stop you from getting an easy

1918
01:27:18,960 --> 01:27:22,479
Speaker 2: bucket at the rim, but he's not gonna shoot and

1919
01:27:22,720 --> 01:27:25,639
Speaker 2: out rebound you the way he was. He was having

1920
01:27:25,720 --> 01:27:28,559
Speaker 2: his way with the Lakers by himself, which was even

1921
01:27:28,560 --> 01:27:31,679
Speaker 2: funnier that it was Rudy Gobert. And our update ancher,

1922
01:27:31,760 --> 01:27:33,759
Speaker 2: Martin Whiss has a little sum sum to add.

1923
01:27:34,640 --> 01:27:36,120
Speaker 3: Can we turn on his Mike Mary?

1924
01:27:36,160 --> 01:27:36,439
Speaker 8: Please?

1925
01:27:37,880 --> 01:27:40,719
Speaker 4: I have a question for Carrie. Yeah, because I've never

1926
01:27:41,560 --> 01:27:42,000
Speaker 4: whether or.

1927
01:27:42,000 --> 01:27:45,080
Speaker 12: Not I was lost in the locker room, It never mattered,

1928
01:27:45,240 --> 01:27:45,840
Speaker 12: do you know what I'm saying?

1929
01:27:45,840 --> 01:27:47,920
Speaker 4: Whether or not I was bought it or not, nobody cared.

1930
01:27:48,760 --> 01:27:51,200
Speaker 12: But I know that if I was a player like

1931
01:27:51,320 --> 01:27:56,640
Speaker 12: Jackson Hayes or Gabe Vincent or you name it, anybody

1932
01:27:56,720 --> 01:27:59,880
Speaker 12: who was six to thirteen on the Lakers roster. Yeah,

1933
01:28:00,479 --> 01:28:03,479
Speaker 12: not playing me in the entirety of Game four is

1934
01:28:03,560 --> 01:28:06,439
Speaker 12: one thing, yep. But then coming in and subbing in

1935
01:28:06,439 --> 01:28:09,800
Speaker 12: Maxie cleeberd game like him playing with five minutes left

1936
01:28:09,800 --> 01:28:13,640
Speaker 12: in our season, yea, that to me feels like a

1937
01:28:13,680 --> 01:28:16,920
Speaker 12: slap in the face that is, it could be a

1938
01:28:17,000 --> 01:28:17,519
Speaker 12: move that.

1939
01:28:17,600 --> 01:28:18,479
Speaker 4: Loses a locker room.

1940
01:28:18,520 --> 01:28:21,599
Speaker 12: Now maybe it doesn't matter because they're like, well, Jackson

1941
01:28:21,680 --> 01:28:23,439
Speaker 12: Agg's is going anyway, so it doesn't matter if you

1942
01:28:23,479 --> 01:28:25,720
Speaker 12: lose them or not. But just as an athlete, could

1943
01:28:25,760 --> 01:28:29,040
Speaker 12: you speak to the idea of you've been there since

1944
01:28:29,080 --> 01:28:31,160
Speaker 12: training camp, yeah, and now all of a sudden, this

1945
01:28:31,240 --> 01:28:33,040
Speaker 12: guy is playing on It.

1946
01:28:33,000 --> 01:28:35,720
Speaker 4: Doesn't feel good. It's one of those things where you know,

1947
01:28:35,800 --> 01:28:37,479
Speaker 4: like you get this new toy and you think it's

1948
01:28:37,640 --> 01:28:40,559
Speaker 4: it's it's the answer to all the problems that has

1949
01:28:40,600 --> 01:28:43,040
Speaker 4: happened all the way through the season and obviously through

1950
01:28:43,080 --> 01:28:47,040
Speaker 4: those five games in the playoffs where yeah, you're telling

1951
01:28:47,200 --> 01:28:49,479
Speaker 4: the people six through thirteen that you're not good enough

1952
01:28:49,520 --> 01:28:50,840
Speaker 4: and I don't trust you to go out there and

1953
01:28:50,840 --> 01:28:54,800
Speaker 4: get the job done. So that's obvious. But the fact

1954
01:28:54,840 --> 01:28:57,080
Speaker 4: that you know he played Maxi. A lot of people

1955
01:28:57,120 --> 01:28:59,360
Speaker 4: don't know this, but I mean some people may, but

1956
01:28:59,840 --> 01:29:01,960
Speaker 4: he has a relationship with Maxie as well. He played

1957
01:29:01,960 --> 01:29:04,760
Speaker 4: in Dallas one year with Maxi, so he knows what

1958
01:29:04,840 --> 01:29:07,040
Speaker 4: he can do in certain situations.

1959
01:29:07,160 --> 01:29:10,439
Speaker 12: So you think of that counterpoint, yep, does he not

1960
01:29:10,520 --> 01:29:12,479
Speaker 12: have a relationship with the thirteen players.

1961
01:29:12,520 --> 01:29:15,439
Speaker 4: He yeah, yeah, yeah, but he saw him in those

1962
01:29:15,439 --> 01:29:17,000
Speaker 4: first four games. They didn't get the job done in

1963
01:29:17,040 --> 01:29:19,960
Speaker 4: his opinion, right, So I'm going to exhaust the option.

1964
01:29:20,200 --> 01:29:22,519
Speaker 4: I know Maxi can do this thing, so I'm going

1965
01:29:22,600 --> 01:29:24,840
Speaker 4: to put him in this moment. It's not fair to Maxie.

1966
01:29:24,880 --> 01:29:26,639
Speaker 4: Maxi hasn't had played.

1967
01:29:26,960 --> 01:29:30,120
Speaker 3: He didn't what I'm saying, Yeah.

1968
01:29:29,800 --> 01:29:33,800
Speaker 4: Four games of seeing that those guys and get it done.

1969
01:29:34,120 --> 01:29:37,160
Speaker 4: Maxi had a one game. So we're throwing out dann

1970
01:29:37,160 --> 01:29:40,200
Speaker 4: Ce if he can. So I understand the logic of

1971
01:29:40,200 --> 01:29:42,160
Speaker 4: it because he has a relationship with them, but it

1972
01:29:42,200 --> 01:29:43,040
Speaker 4: doesn't make sense.

1973
01:29:43,080 --> 01:29:48,519
Speaker 2: But yes, why and it's a screaming favoritism screaming but

1974
01:29:48,600 --> 01:29:53,559
Speaker 2: it's like, again, you're losing, why not just try something? Yea,

1975
01:29:54,120 --> 01:29:58,200
Speaker 2: and to have zero minutes zero. I'm with Martin, like,

1976
01:29:58,320 --> 01:30:01,400
Speaker 2: I don't know how I swa follow that pill and

1977
01:30:01,600 --> 01:30:03,679
Speaker 2: move on and not hold it against my coach.

1978
01:30:03,760 --> 01:30:06,479
Speaker 4: Well you make it. The pill is easier swallow now

1979
01:30:06,520 --> 01:30:07,240
Speaker 4: because the season's over.

1980
01:30:07,360 --> 01:30:09,320
Speaker 3: It is over, absolutely, so a lot.

1981
01:30:09,240 --> 01:30:10,360
Speaker 4: Of those guys won't be back.

1982
01:30:10,560 --> 01:30:13,160
Speaker 3: That's true, that's true, which is the point. Yeah, he's

1983
01:30:13,600 --> 01:30:16,000
Speaker 3: not going anywhere. J. J. Reddick is not going anywhere.

1984
01:30:16,040 --> 01:30:19,320
Speaker 2: And then there's obviously all these questions surrounding Lebron James

1985
01:30:19,320 --> 01:30:22,960
Speaker 2: from he should retire, he should do this, y'all. He

1986
01:30:23,080 --> 01:30:26,599
Speaker 2: is not going anywhere, Like, I don't the idea that

1987
01:30:26,600 --> 01:30:28,360
Speaker 2: he should retire is silly.

1988
01:30:28,560 --> 01:30:30,800
Speaker 3: This man's gonna retire, this man who like.

1989
01:30:31,000 --> 01:30:34,080
Speaker 2: Is still playing at a high level right, Like, it's

1990
01:30:34,120 --> 01:30:34,920
Speaker 2: pretty incredible.

1991
01:30:35,479 --> 01:30:38,360
Speaker 3: But I do think that Lebron he's not going to

1992
01:30:38,439 --> 01:30:38,640
Speaker 3: do this.

1993
01:30:38,880 --> 01:30:41,599
Speaker 4: Let me say that ahead. He's not gonna do this.

1994
01:30:42,200 --> 01:30:48,000
Speaker 2: But if Lebron reassessed how he plays next season, he

1995
01:30:48,120 --> 01:30:51,320
Speaker 2: should play a lot less minutes. I'm not telling you

1996
01:30:51,360 --> 01:30:52,880
Speaker 2: to come off the bench. You could be a starter

1997
01:30:52,920 --> 01:30:55,679
Speaker 2: because you're Lebron James, but you should not be playing

1998
01:30:55,720 --> 01:30:58,040
Speaker 2: the minutes of a starter. You should be playing the

1999
01:30:58,080 --> 01:31:01,639
Speaker 2: minutes of a guy off the bench. And I don't

2000
01:31:01,680 --> 01:31:05,240
Speaker 2: know if that works, like if him sitting for long

2001
01:31:05,320 --> 01:31:09,599
Speaker 2: periods of time in the game would actually go against him,

2002
01:31:10,120 --> 01:31:12,439
Speaker 2: or does he need to have those high minutes so

2003
01:31:12,479 --> 01:31:15,400
Speaker 2: that he keeps Yeah, you know, I don't know, but

2004
01:31:15,439 --> 01:31:19,160
Speaker 2: it seems like you can't play those forty minutes forty

2005
01:31:19,360 --> 01:31:21,400
Speaker 2: two minutes you were playing because at the end you

2006
01:31:21,439 --> 01:31:24,599
Speaker 2: were gassed. Yes, and like, yeah, you gave one minute

2007
01:31:24,640 --> 01:31:26,680
Speaker 2: of great defense in the final maybe five minutes of

2008
01:31:26,680 --> 01:31:29,120
Speaker 2: a fourth quarter, but you were gassed and it's because

2009
01:31:29,160 --> 01:31:32,400
Speaker 2: you played so much. Again, JJ Reddick was a Game

2010
01:31:32,439 --> 01:31:35,719
Speaker 2: four that the entire second half nobody took a break.

2011
01:31:35,880 --> 01:31:35,960
Speaker 4: Ye.

2012
01:31:36,240 --> 01:31:37,960
Speaker 3: You can't do that, and you can't do that with

2013
01:31:38,080 --> 01:31:38,839
Speaker 3: Lebron James.

2014
01:31:39,120 --> 01:31:41,160
Speaker 2: And so I feel like he can have success with

2015
01:31:41,240 --> 01:31:44,200
Speaker 2: the Lakers, but he cannot play like a starter.

2016
01:31:44,400 --> 01:31:47,000
Speaker 3: Be a starter, but you can't play like a starter.

2017
01:31:47,160 --> 01:31:49,880
Speaker 4: Yeah, his minutes have to be reduced throughout the season

2018
01:31:49,920 --> 01:31:52,639
Speaker 4: for sure, and for that team to be successful next

2019
01:31:52,720 --> 01:31:55,320
Speaker 4: year with keeping those same three, he needs to be

2020
01:31:55,400 --> 01:31:55,960
Speaker 4: the third option.

2021
01:31:56,120 --> 01:31:56,800
Speaker 3: Absolutely.

2022
01:31:56,880 --> 01:31:58,839
Speaker 4: So it's just like there has to be some tweaks

2023
01:31:58,840 --> 01:32:02,160
Speaker 4: in the game. And I think also for that to happen,

2024
01:32:02,240 --> 01:32:04,439
Speaker 4: Luca has to come back in better shape and so

2025
01:32:04,520 --> 01:32:06,280
Speaker 4: he if he's going to carry the load him in

2026
01:32:06,280 --> 01:32:09,559
Speaker 4: Austin reeves, they have to get together this offseason, really

2027
01:32:09,600 --> 01:32:13,200
Speaker 4: get some real rapport understand what they're doing, which obviously

2028
01:32:13,240 --> 01:32:15,679
Speaker 4: the dinner we saw m M with you, Rope, Lincoln

2029
01:32:15,800 --> 01:32:18,400
Speaker 4: Luke and those guys, I'm sure that's the head of

2030
01:32:18,439 --> 01:32:20,720
Speaker 4: the conversation. Absolutely, Luca has to be the guys. It

2031
01:32:20,800 --> 01:32:22,400
Speaker 4: has to be his team and Lebron has to be

2032
01:32:22,439 --> 01:32:25,160
Speaker 4: the third option during the regular season for this team

2033
01:32:25,200 --> 01:32:26,120
Speaker 4: to actually win.

2034
01:32:26,360 --> 01:32:26,519
Speaker 11: Right.

2035
01:32:26,600 --> 01:32:29,240
Speaker 7: But it's is that a pill that Lebron James can

2036
01:32:29,280 --> 01:32:31,120
Speaker 7: swallow because we're talking about egos here.

2037
01:32:31,120 --> 01:32:33,120
Speaker 2: There's a lot of egos with the Lakers, not just

2038
01:32:33,240 --> 01:32:35,000
Speaker 2: JJ and Lebron and JJ are friends.

2039
01:32:35,040 --> 01:32:36,000
Speaker 4: That's why this happened.

2040
01:32:36,040 --> 01:32:39,080
Speaker 2: Let's be real, So it's not the egos are not

2041
01:32:39,120 --> 01:32:41,240
Speaker 2: necessarily I think a problem for them going against each

2042
01:32:41,240 --> 01:32:45,040
Speaker 2: other before the game itself. Can Lebron's ego really be

2043
01:32:45,080 --> 01:32:46,840
Speaker 2: put to the side where it's like, you're right, I

2044
01:32:47,240 --> 01:32:48,160
Speaker 2: am gonna.

2045
01:32:48,200 --> 01:32:49,280
Speaker 4: Maybe play.

2046
01:32:50,840 --> 01:32:54,200
Speaker 2: Thirty minutes in this game at max at max right

2047
01:32:54,400 --> 01:32:57,519
Speaker 2: during the regular season, that's what you should be playing max.

2048
01:32:57,560 --> 01:33:01,160
Speaker 2: And I feel like he can be effective absolutely, Like

2049
01:33:01,640 --> 01:33:03,720
Speaker 2: retiring is stupid. He's not gonna retire. He's gonna play

2050
01:33:03,720 --> 01:33:05,040
Speaker 2: with his other son, you guys, like, come on, he

2051
01:33:05,040 --> 01:33:06,840
Speaker 2: played with Bronnie. He's gonna play with Brice, Like, let's

2052
01:33:06,880 --> 01:33:09,680
Speaker 2: be real, let's be real. He also there's reports that

2053
01:33:09,760 --> 01:33:11,519
Speaker 2: like he's not gonna take a pay cut, and that's

2054
01:33:11,560 --> 01:33:11,880
Speaker 2: another thing.

2055
01:33:11,920 --> 01:33:14,200
Speaker 3: It's like, you know, take a pay cut, you ain

2056
01:33:14,439 --> 01:33:15,439
Speaker 3: don't need more money.

2057
01:33:15,520 --> 01:33:20,000
Speaker 2: You truly, truly, truly, like you've been playing for twenty years,

2058
01:33:20,280 --> 01:33:22,240
Speaker 2: you do not need more money. And also your kids

2059
01:33:22,240 --> 01:33:24,400
Speaker 2: are making their own money now at this point, so

2060
01:33:24,439 --> 01:33:27,640
Speaker 2: you really don't need and the Lakers need to have

2061
01:33:27,720 --> 01:33:30,000
Speaker 2: more flexibility. But the reports are out there that he's

2062
01:33:30,040 --> 01:33:31,280
Speaker 2: not expected to take a pay cut.

2063
01:33:31,760 --> 01:33:34,400
Speaker 4: Wow, yeah, I know. I mean at this point, I

2064
01:33:35,640 --> 01:33:38,120
Speaker 4: don't know if him taking a pay cut, what that

2065
01:33:38,160 --> 01:33:40,439
Speaker 4: brings in. But again, all these are conversations that we

2066
01:33:40,520 --> 01:33:42,320
Speaker 4: don't know yet. We don't know what they're, what they're,

2067
01:33:42,320 --> 01:33:44,920
Speaker 4: who they're targeting, and what they're trying to achieve. And

2068
01:33:45,040 --> 01:33:47,000
Speaker 4: I mean, he came out last year and said he

2069
01:33:47,000 --> 01:33:48,800
Speaker 4: would have taken a pay cut, right you know, so

2070
01:33:49,040 --> 01:33:51,599
Speaker 4: she said no, no, so he said that, he said that,

2071
01:33:51,640 --> 01:33:53,479
Speaker 4: so it was in the ether. But as far as

2072
01:33:53,560 --> 01:33:55,599
Speaker 4: right now, I wouldn't take a pay cut either until

2073
01:33:55,640 --> 01:33:58,080
Speaker 4: I find out what what the game plan.

2074
01:33:58,000 --> 01:33:59,760
Speaker 3: Is moved for obviously, And that's what I mean, because

2075
01:33:59,760 --> 01:34:02,120
Speaker 3: it's like if you do take a picut, it's because

2076
01:34:02,280 --> 01:34:03,240
Speaker 3: you're making moves.

2077
01:34:03,320 --> 01:34:05,040
Speaker 2: I'm not saying just to take a pickup just to

2078
01:34:05,040 --> 01:34:07,479
Speaker 2: do it, but because you can make moves to make

2079
01:34:07,479 --> 01:34:10,560
Speaker 2: your team better because you do need a center, and

2080
01:34:10,600 --> 01:34:11,519
Speaker 2: you knew that already.

2081
01:34:11,560 --> 01:34:14,280
Speaker 3: So this isn't breaking news or a hot take.

2082
01:34:14,360 --> 01:34:16,000
Speaker 4: They all take it was a hot day.

2083
01:34:16,080 --> 01:34:18,160
Speaker 3: They already knew that. So it's like, you gotta make moves.

2084
01:34:18,160 --> 01:34:21,760
Speaker 3: I don't know who you're gonna go for. Before we

2085
01:34:21,800 --> 01:34:23,680
Speaker 3: wrap this up, I moved on.

2086
01:34:23,640 --> 01:34:24,479
Speaker 4: From JJ Reddick.

2087
01:34:24,560 --> 01:34:30,120
Speaker 2: But what did you make of JJ's comments about.

2088
01:34:30,080 --> 01:34:33,559
Speaker 3: The the What did he say?

2089
01:34:33,600 --> 01:34:36,280
Speaker 2: And it was directly at Luca about being in shape?

2090
01:34:36,600 --> 01:34:40,040
Speaker 2: Like I thought it was the roster. He did say

2091
01:34:40,080 --> 01:34:42,240
Speaker 2: the roster, but you knew what he was saying when

2092
01:34:42,240 --> 01:34:45,160
Speaker 2: he was talking about stamina or whatever about that was

2093
01:34:45,160 --> 01:34:45,639
Speaker 2: at Luca.

2094
01:34:46,479 --> 01:34:48,160
Speaker 3: I was like, man, this.

2095
01:34:48,120 --> 01:34:49,479
Speaker 4: Guy, Yeah, that's good.

2096
01:34:49,800 --> 01:34:51,200
Speaker 3: You thought it was like that. You like that?

2097
01:34:51,280 --> 01:34:54,080
Speaker 4: I like that one, Like okay again, you want to

2098
01:34:54,160 --> 01:34:57,639
Speaker 4: challenge your superstars, and I think the beautiful thing about

2099
01:34:57,720 --> 01:35:00,880
Speaker 4: sports and this is what it's and ance on your spurs.

2100
01:35:00,880 --> 01:35:05,080
Speaker 4: One Greg Popovich, which we'll talk about later, Well, he

2101
01:35:05,760 --> 01:35:09,280
Speaker 4: challenged everybody, eody from Tim Duncan to David Robinson, like

2102
01:35:09,320 --> 01:35:11,880
Speaker 4: he would call them Manu ginobily, he would call them

2103
01:35:11,920 --> 01:35:15,280
Speaker 4: all out. If your stars can't be called out and

2104
01:35:15,360 --> 01:35:17,880
Speaker 4: say what they need to get fixed. The team will

2105
01:35:17,880 --> 01:35:21,000
Speaker 4: not win. And I actually liked the approach of saying it,

2106
01:35:21,040 --> 01:35:22,400
Speaker 4: even though he didn't put the name to.

2107
01:35:22,520 --> 01:35:24,040
Speaker 3: He did not, but everybody knew what he was.

2108
01:35:24,320 --> 01:35:27,080
Speaker 4: Yeah, but put that out there, like let it be known,

2109
01:35:27,280 --> 01:35:32,479
Speaker 4: Dallas and Luca was secretive and lead things about that afterwards. No,

2110
01:35:32,640 --> 01:35:35,160
Speaker 4: like tell him while he's there that he needs to

2111
01:35:35,200 --> 01:35:37,240
Speaker 4: do that, and if he doesn't, then the onus is

2112
01:35:37,240 --> 01:35:38,400
Speaker 4: on him and not the organization.

2113
01:35:38,640 --> 01:35:40,600
Speaker 3: I guess I'm just like y'all. Luco w into the

2114
01:35:40,600 --> 01:35:42,719
Speaker 3: finals and got dusted.

2115
01:35:42,800 --> 01:35:45,000
Speaker 4: Though he did get dust, and that's the part about it,

2116
01:35:45,040 --> 01:35:46,720
Speaker 4: Like what do you want to do, MASI you want

2117
01:35:46,720 --> 01:35:49,120
Speaker 4: to just yea some game?

2118
01:35:49,560 --> 01:35:51,600
Speaker 3: Like is this okay with you? Like is this the

2119
01:35:51,600 --> 01:35:53,280
Speaker 3: ceiling you want to hit? Or like do you want

2120
01:35:53,280 --> 01:35:54,000
Speaker 3: to actually win?

2121
01:35:54,720 --> 01:35:57,360
Speaker 7: I guess I was just surprised that JJ Reddick said

2122
01:35:57,360 --> 01:36:00,639
Speaker 7: that because of the conversation surrounding Lucas and a trade. Yeah,

2123
01:36:00,680 --> 01:36:02,439
Speaker 7: you know, I was just surprised that that came out,

2124
01:36:02,479 --> 01:36:03,879
Speaker 7: even though I like what you said.

2125
01:36:03,800 --> 01:36:04,760
Speaker 4: Hold him accountable.

2126
01:36:05,080 --> 01:36:08,200
Speaker 7: Apparently Luca's not taking the summer off. He's gonna play

2127
01:36:08,360 --> 01:36:09,080
Speaker 7: in Slovenia.

2128
01:36:09,120 --> 01:36:10,880
Speaker 4: No, he needs to take a summer off.

2129
01:36:10,880 --> 01:36:11,280
Speaker 3: I don't think.

2130
01:36:11,439 --> 01:36:13,240
Speaker 4: I think that's part of the problem too. He plays

2131
01:36:13,280 --> 01:36:16,080
Speaker 4: too much basketball. He plays over in the world, not

2132
01:36:16,120 --> 01:36:20,200
Speaker 4: the World Cup, Theague, the EuroLeague stuff, and he comes

2133
01:36:20,200 --> 01:36:22,040
Speaker 4: back and he's tired, and so he's not like in

2134
01:36:22,160 --> 01:36:25,720
Speaker 4: great shape. He's played all and he's playing basketball, but

2135
01:36:25,880 --> 01:36:29,240
Speaker 4: he's not conditioning for a full in an NBA.

2136
01:36:29,080 --> 01:36:32,120
Speaker 2: Season and or conditioning for the playoffs, which is different.

2137
01:36:32,400 --> 01:36:33,760
Speaker 2: But apparently he's not taking this.

2138
01:36:34,920 --> 01:36:38,000
Speaker 7: It's yeah, like take a moment, like for real, Yeah,

2139
01:36:38,000 --> 01:36:40,519
Speaker 7: because you aren't in shape, like you can play a

2140
01:36:40,520 --> 01:36:42,400
Speaker 7: basketball game, but you need to get in the next

2141
01:36:42,479 --> 01:36:43,479
Speaker 7: level of shape.

2142
01:36:43,640 --> 01:36:44,360
Speaker 4: Look at Lebron.

2143
01:36:44,640 --> 01:36:46,639
Speaker 2: You need to get in the next level of shape.

2144
01:36:47,000 --> 01:36:49,840
Speaker 2: And uh, I still don't know if he stays in LA.

2145
01:36:49,880 --> 01:36:51,280
Speaker 2: I think you and I feel the same way, like

2146
01:36:51,320 --> 01:36:53,720
Speaker 2: we're I don't know. I don't know what he's gonna do.

2147
01:36:54,200 --> 01:36:54,840
Speaker 2: It is in LA.

2148
01:36:54,920 --> 01:36:57,120
Speaker 3: I get that, but he never wanted to be here.

2149
01:36:57,120 --> 01:37:00,799
Speaker 2: It wasn't his thing. So I am curious to see

2150
01:37:01,080 --> 01:37:03,599
Speaker 2: what happens in the future when it comes to Luca

2151
01:37:03,760 --> 01:37:06,800
Speaker 2: and the Lakers. But Lebron one hundred needs to be

2152
01:37:07,960 --> 01:37:10,400
Speaker 2: again a starter, but don't play.

2153
01:37:10,240 --> 01:37:10,799
Speaker 4: Like a starter.

2154
01:37:11,880 --> 01:37:14,320
Speaker 2: I agree right, that's that is how you can have

2155
01:37:14,360 --> 01:37:16,400
Speaker 2: success with Lebron at age.

2156
01:37:16,520 --> 01:37:22,639
Speaker 3: What forty one, I don't know is forty one?

2157
01:37:23,320 --> 01:37:25,680
Speaker 4: Yeah, and he should not be in twenty points a game,

2158
01:37:25,680 --> 01:37:26,800
Speaker 4: but he.

2159
01:37:26,360 --> 01:37:28,519
Speaker 3: Shouldn't be expected of him.

2160
01:37:28,680 --> 01:37:31,240
Speaker 2: Yes, that he can because he can't, but it shouldn't

2161
01:37:31,240 --> 01:37:31,679
Speaker 2: be expected.

2162
01:37:31,720 --> 01:37:35,160
Speaker 3: And when it happens, it's like great, excellent, right, it

2163
01:37:35,200 --> 01:37:37,519
Speaker 3: works better for us, but it should not be expected

2164
01:37:37,520 --> 01:37:40,000
Speaker 3: of him. He should be the third option moving forward

2165
01:37:40,000 --> 01:37:43,719
Speaker 3: for the Lakers. But we'll see on the other side. Yeah,

2166
01:37:44,160 --> 01:37:48,000
Speaker 3: or a couple of dynasties might be coming to an end, Carrie,

2167
01:37:48,120 --> 01:37:48,639
Speaker 3: not just.

2168
01:37:48,560 --> 01:37:51,360
Speaker 4: One, a couple, not one, not two, not three.

2169
01:37:51,360 --> 01:37:54,360
Speaker 3: Three four, definitely, So don't go anywhere we're going to

2170
01:37:54,439 --> 01:37:57,280
Speaker 3: talk about those dynasties. I'm Moncey, He's Gary, and this

2172
01:38:03,360 --> 01:38:04,120
Speaker 4: But I didn't forget that.

2173
01:38:04,600 --> 01:38:06,519
Speaker 3: There you go, there you go sink on that. My

2174
01:38:06,600 --> 01:38:09,800
Speaker 3: own is tomorrow. It is May the fourth today, and

01:38:13,640 --> 01:38:18,040
Speaker 4: What's your favorite Mansei, your favorite Star Wars movie?

2177
01:38:18,720 --> 01:38:24,880
Speaker 3: You're not gonna like these answers, so it's gotten. I

2178
01:38:24,880 --> 01:38:27,160
Speaker 3: also don't even like remember the names. It would have

2179
01:38:27,320 --> 01:38:31,479
Speaker 3: to be one of the newer ones.

2180
01:38:31,600 --> 01:38:32,720
Speaker 4: Oh, you're a newer.

2181
01:38:32,439 --> 01:38:35,800
Speaker 7: One, because I saw the old ones, but I don't

2182
01:38:35,840 --> 01:38:38,200
Speaker 7: remember them, and then I haven't gone back to them

2183
01:38:38,200 --> 01:38:38,879
Speaker 7: as an adult.

2184
01:38:39,400 --> 01:38:41,679
Speaker 3: I tried to, and I was like, I can't sit

2185
01:38:41,720 --> 01:38:43,400
Speaker 3: through this. It looks so dated.

2186
01:38:43,880 --> 01:38:45,839
Speaker 15: So the newer, newer ones, Yeah.

2187
01:38:45,640 --> 01:38:47,360
Speaker 2: Like the ones that have come out now, Yeah, like

2188
01:38:47,400 --> 01:38:50,439
Speaker 2: the episode whatever, seven, eight nine, whatever they are now. Yeah,

2189
01:38:50,520 --> 01:38:53,160
Speaker 2: those because those the ones I remember, you know, because

2190
01:38:53,200 --> 01:38:54,640
Speaker 2: those are the ones I saw as adults.

2191
01:38:54,800 --> 01:38:57,200
Speaker 3: The ones the other ones, I saw them younger, and

2192
01:38:57,240 --> 01:39:00,000
Speaker 3: I don't remember them as much. To be honest.

2193
01:39:00,160 --> 01:39:03,000
Speaker 4: Mmm, I'm an old school Star Wars guy, and mine

2194
01:39:03,040 --> 01:39:05,400
Speaker 4: isn't everybody's favorite. A cup of tea, but I'm a

2195
01:39:05,439 --> 01:39:07,920
Speaker 4: return of the Jedi, Return of the Jedi of the

2196
01:39:08,000 --> 01:39:11,320
Speaker 4: Jedi Star Wars guy. Yeah, yeah, yeah, the little the

2197
01:39:11,360 --> 01:39:14,160
Speaker 4: little wookies running around. Yeah.

2198
01:39:15,040 --> 01:39:17,719
Speaker 3: I feel like Revenge of the Sith is most.

2199
01:39:17,479 --> 01:39:19,000
Speaker 4: People's favorite, like that.

2200
01:39:19,040 --> 01:39:20,360
Speaker 3: A lot of people like that one.

2201
01:39:21,280 --> 01:39:28,080
Speaker 2: But yeah, I definitely don't remember watching the old school one.

2202
01:39:28,479 --> 01:39:30,600
Speaker 4: All right, all right, we can move on.

2203
01:39:30,680 --> 01:39:35,759
Speaker 2: We can move on, all right, Carrie Greg Popovich stepping

2204
01:39:35,800 --> 01:39:39,479
Speaker 2: away from his coaching duties with the San Antonio Spurs

2205
01:39:39,520 --> 01:39:43,840
Speaker 2: going into the front office. So he's not completely, you know, retiring,

2206
01:39:44,320 --> 01:39:47,519
Speaker 2: but he is stepping away from that sideline. And I

2207
01:39:48,040 --> 01:39:51,519
Speaker 2: hate it because it's I love Greg Popovich. I love

2208
01:39:51,600 --> 01:39:54,200
Speaker 2: his intense style of calling you out.

2209
01:39:54,240 --> 01:39:57,240
Speaker 16: Even though I remember, I remember I was at a

2210
01:39:57,240 --> 01:40:00,320
Speaker 16: Clippers game at Staple Center back then when we were

2211
01:40:00,320 --> 01:40:02,479
Speaker 16: playing the Spurs, and I was so excited to see

2212
01:40:02,920 --> 01:40:05,000
Speaker 16: you know, Pop, not just.

2213
01:40:04,960 --> 01:40:10,400
Speaker 2: Pop but Duncan Manu uh, Tony Parker. And then it

2214
01:40:10,560 --> 01:40:13,439
Speaker 2: was right before the playoffs and his team was going

2215
01:40:13,439 --> 01:40:16,760
Speaker 2: to the playoffs and he sat them and he was like,

2216
01:40:16,920 --> 01:40:17,559
Speaker 2: my guys.

2217
01:40:17,360 --> 01:40:19,120
Speaker 3: Are old, Like I don't what do you want me

2218
01:40:19,160 --> 01:40:19,400
Speaker 3: to do?

2219
01:40:19,600 --> 01:40:22,559
Speaker 2: So even though he is a big reason as to

2220
01:40:22,840 --> 01:40:24,360
Speaker 2: why maybe there is.

2221
01:40:25,200 --> 01:40:27,400
Speaker 4: This, I know what you're talking about. I can't think

2222
01:40:27,439 --> 01:40:29,320
Speaker 4: of the name the resting play.

2223
01:40:29,280 --> 01:40:32,040
Speaker 2: The resting players. He did that right, like load management,

2224
01:40:32,120 --> 01:40:35,519
Speaker 2: load management. It definite, thank you. It started with him.

2225
01:40:35,680 --> 01:40:38,360
Speaker 2: But I'm a big Pop fan. Pop for president, you know, yeah.

2226
01:40:38,439 --> 01:40:40,599
Speaker 2: And what I hate about this is that Pop is

2227
01:40:40,640 --> 01:40:45,479
Speaker 2: one of the few coaches across sports that I think

2228
01:40:45,720 --> 01:40:48,240
Speaker 2: could have a farewell tour and he's not going to

2229
01:40:48,280 --> 01:40:48,599
Speaker 2: get one.

2230
01:40:48,960 --> 01:40:53,280
Speaker 4: I agree with that. I think the thing with Papa

2231
01:40:53,840 --> 01:40:58,200
Speaker 4: is the consistency. Like obviously san Antonio has been lucky

2232
01:40:58,400 --> 01:41:02,559
Speaker 4: in the lottery and got gotten players the other teams

2233
01:41:02,600 --> 01:41:05,200
Speaker 4: would have success with as well. But as far as

2234
01:41:05,520 --> 01:41:08,439
Speaker 4: a program and a way to run things, he's He's

2235
01:41:08,520 --> 01:41:11,200
Speaker 4: ex military, so he has that background, so all those

2236
01:41:11,240 --> 01:41:14,639
Speaker 4: things matter with holding people accountable, and I think that's

2237
01:41:14,680 --> 01:41:17,400
Speaker 4: where it starts for him in that organization. And they've

2238
01:41:17,400 --> 01:41:19,840
Speaker 4: had so much success and obviously, you know the way

2239
01:41:19,840 --> 01:41:21,599
Speaker 4: he went out, he didn't want to go out on

2240
01:41:21,640 --> 01:41:23,760
Speaker 4: these terms as far as not being able to do

2241
01:41:23,800 --> 01:41:27,240
Speaker 4: it physically, but you know, like he's had a great career.

2242
01:41:27,520 --> 01:41:29,400
Speaker 4: Hats off. And I have one story about Pop which

2243
01:41:29,720 --> 01:41:32,120
Speaker 4: made me really admire him more because I hate the

2244
01:41:32,120 --> 01:41:35,960
Speaker 4: Spurs as a Maverick fan, of course, But and Dirk's

2245
01:41:35,960 --> 01:41:39,559
Speaker 4: farewell tour, there was a moment where Dirk came in

2246
01:41:39,600 --> 01:41:41,280
Speaker 4: the game and then Dirk can barely move and he

2247
01:41:41,360 --> 01:41:42,800
Speaker 4: was catching the ball to the free throw line to

2248
01:41:42,840 --> 01:41:45,840
Speaker 4: get a shot, and Papavich was telling his players to

2249
01:41:45,880 --> 01:41:48,080
Speaker 4: back up because he wanted Dirk's last shot to go in.

2250
01:41:48,640 --> 01:41:51,720
Speaker 4: And so just that attention to the history of the

2251
01:41:51,720 --> 01:41:55,880
Speaker 4: game and detailed. The moment was very much appreciated, and

2252
01:41:55,880 --> 01:41:58,640
Speaker 4: I saw another side of him. So I enjoyed that

2253
01:41:58,680 --> 01:41:59,040
Speaker 4: so much.

2254
01:41:59,080 --> 01:42:02,200
Speaker 3: Absolutely. Remember when Kawhi came back and they were between

2255
01:42:02,280 --> 01:42:05,640
Speaker 3: him and he's like stop booing Kawai, Like, yeah, you

2256
01:42:05,720 --> 01:42:08,760
Speaker 3: can be mad at what happened, but he also is

2257
01:42:08,800 --> 01:42:12,760
Speaker 3: a finals MVP here, He's a All NBA Defensive Player

2258
01:42:12,800 --> 01:42:16,360
Speaker 3: of the Year here. Like he has just so many moments,

2259
01:42:16,360 --> 01:42:18,080
Speaker 3: Like that's what it's like. He lives in the moment.

2260
01:42:18,360 --> 01:42:22,360
Speaker 3: And even though he's intense, he's soft yea. And everyone

2261
01:42:22,439 --> 01:42:27,080
Speaker 3: says that about him. He's a big softy. But you're

2262
01:42:27,160 --> 01:42:29,799
Speaker 3: scared and you respect him, yes, but he's a softie.

2263
01:42:29,840 --> 01:42:32,720
Speaker 4: It's respect yep. Well, I mean I guess young guys

2264
01:42:32,720 --> 01:42:33,240
Speaker 4: with fear.

2265
01:42:33,160 --> 01:42:35,800
Speaker 3: Him, absolutely No, you know there's fear, absolutely.

2266
01:42:35,320 --> 01:42:37,160
Speaker 4: Sure, but it's a respect thing. Like if you're doing

2267
01:42:37,200 --> 01:42:39,000
Speaker 4: it the right way and you have the results to

2268
01:42:39,040 --> 01:42:41,559
Speaker 4: back it up and prove it, I'm going to follow you.

2269
01:42:41,479 --> 01:42:45,719
Speaker 3: To absolutely absolutely. And then maybe the end of another dynasty.

2270
01:42:46,400 --> 01:42:49,200
Speaker 2: The Warriors can't pull off Game seven and a little

2271
01:42:49,200 --> 01:42:53,599
Speaker 2: bit Carrie against Houston. I had Warriors winning this series,

2272
01:42:53,840 --> 01:42:57,160
Speaker 2: but I'm not as feeling good about it with how

2273
01:42:57,200 --> 01:43:00,519
Speaker 2: the last couple of games have gone. Yeah, and in

2274
01:43:00,560 --> 01:43:02,880
Speaker 2: game five, you know, like they threw in the towels

2275
01:43:02,960 --> 01:43:05,320
Speaker 2: so early in that one, and you were just.

2276
01:43:05,240 --> 01:43:06,720
Speaker 3: Like, why did you do that?

2277
01:43:06,840 --> 01:43:09,439
Speaker 2: I get it, you've got older players and you're trying

2278
01:43:09,439 --> 01:43:11,519
Speaker 2: to wrest them, but like it didn't work for you

2279
01:43:11,560 --> 01:43:15,400
Speaker 2: in game six and Steven Adams is a real.

2280
01:43:15,960 --> 01:43:19,479
Speaker 3: Another big softie. Yeah, did you see that play where

2281
01:43:19,840 --> 01:43:22,320
Speaker 3: it was Jimmy Butler and he went and like hugged

2282
01:43:22,360 --> 01:43:24,080
Speaker 3: him as they were like holding the ball. It was

2283
01:43:24,160 --> 01:43:27,320
Speaker 3: so funny. Another big softie that also you respect and

2284
01:43:27,320 --> 01:43:28,080
Speaker 3: you're kind of scared of it.

2285
01:43:28,280 --> 01:43:30,400
Speaker 4: Yes, yeah, yeah.

2286
01:43:30,120 --> 01:43:34,080
Speaker 3: All the another the end of another dynasty possibly possibly.

2287
01:43:34,880 --> 01:43:39,320
Speaker 4: I mean I've gone on a limb twice today, so

2288
01:43:40,680 --> 01:43:44,920
Speaker 4: you know what, like I want to again, I don't know.

2289
01:43:45,600 --> 01:43:49,280
Speaker 4: It's one of those ones where I it should be easy.

2290
01:43:49,320 --> 01:43:51,760
Speaker 4: I think Houston shouldn't win this game. Yes, they've been

2291
01:43:51,760 --> 01:43:53,879
Speaker 4: the better team all year, yes.

2292
01:43:53,720 --> 01:43:56,320
Speaker 2: I mean by four games, Yes, the better Did you

2293
01:43:56,360 --> 01:43:57,800
Speaker 2: know it was only four games?

2294
01:43:57,479 --> 01:43:58,880
Speaker 3: Four? Only four games?

2295
01:43:59,000 --> 01:44:01,439
Speaker 4: Yeah? Okay, well that's.

2296
01:44:01,280 --> 01:44:03,080
Speaker 3: How tight the West was. It's just that's how tight.

2297
01:44:03,400 --> 01:44:06,160
Speaker 4: That's you're right, Yeah, but to me, they still have

2298
01:44:06,160 --> 01:44:08,600
Speaker 4: been the better team and they've been together throughout this

2299
01:44:08,680 --> 01:44:13,200
Speaker 4: journey longer, and so I expect them to win. I'm

2300
01:44:13,240 --> 01:44:14,920
Speaker 4: just not ready to write off Golden State yet. And

2301
01:44:15,000 --> 01:44:16,960
Speaker 4: I think that's the fact that and that's what you're

2302
01:44:16,960 --> 01:44:19,640
Speaker 4: bringing up right now, the dynasty part of it. We

2303
01:44:19,800 --> 01:44:21,679
Speaker 4: know they can do it. They can and they've shown

2304
01:44:21,680 --> 01:44:24,800
Speaker 4: they can do it for years. Absolutely, So what's what's

2305
01:44:24,800 --> 01:44:26,639
Speaker 4: different today because they're older.

2306
01:44:26,640 --> 01:44:29,840
Speaker 2: But yeah, it's like I am curious to see how

2307
01:44:29,920 --> 01:44:32,880
Speaker 2: they adjust because it's about adjustment, about adjustment, how they

2308
01:44:32,880 --> 01:44:34,880
Speaker 2: adjust to Steven Adams for this game.

2309
01:44:34,960 --> 01:44:37,559
Speaker 4: Well, the one thing that I have heard right away, good,

2310
01:44:37,680 --> 01:44:41,160
Speaker 4: good point is Kamingo will be available. So right we

2311
01:44:41,240 --> 01:44:44,920
Speaker 4: talked about this right not playing, not playing, Yes, he

2312
01:44:44,960 --> 01:44:45,639
Speaker 4: hasn't been playing.

2313
01:44:45,680 --> 01:44:47,800
Speaker 3: He hasn't several minutes in the last game when when

2314
01:44:47,840 --> 01:44:48,680
Speaker 3: everybody else went in.

2315
01:44:48,880 --> 01:44:51,920
Speaker 4: But Steve Kerr said it after game six that he

2316
01:44:52,000 --> 01:44:54,920
Speaker 4: will be somebody that they can throw in to kind

2317
01:44:54,960 --> 01:44:57,759
Speaker 4: of counter counter a little bit for a patent.

2318
01:44:58,040 --> 01:45:02,479
Speaker 3: Absolutely try it out because if I even if if

2319
01:45:02,479 --> 01:45:05,040
Speaker 3: Steven Adams, if they don't have an answer for him, right,

2320
01:45:05,520 --> 01:45:09,160
Speaker 3: but let's say Curry goes off three points are worth

2321
01:45:09,160 --> 01:45:11,960
Speaker 3: more than two, yes, and then adds up and it

2322
01:45:12,000 --> 01:45:13,320
Speaker 3: adds up. Yeah.

2323
01:45:13,360 --> 01:45:15,840
Speaker 2: I think, like I said, I'm not as comfortable now,

2324
01:45:15,880 --> 01:45:18,640
Speaker 2: even though I took them to win early. Right at

2325
01:45:18,640 --> 01:45:20,559
Speaker 2: the start, I was like, they're gonna win. I don't

2326
01:45:20,600 --> 01:45:23,000
Speaker 2: see the Rockets who they have as a score. Fred

2327
01:45:23,080 --> 01:45:25,879
Speaker 2: van Vlie has come to life in the last three games.

2328
01:45:26,200 --> 01:45:29,040
Speaker 2: Oh like listen, but he wasn't doing that right, Like,

2329
01:45:29,160 --> 01:45:30,080
Speaker 2: he wasn't doing that.

2330
01:45:30,479 --> 01:45:34,160
Speaker 3: And Jalen Green has been disappointing.

2331
01:45:34,280 --> 01:45:37,160
Speaker 4: It's a learning curve for him, a learning cur multiple bodies.

2332
01:45:37,360 --> 01:45:39,880
Speaker 3: Absolutely, and he'll he's he's got it in him. You know.

2333
01:45:39,920 --> 01:45:42,800
Speaker 3: I think he's not afraid, which is good. It's good

2334
01:45:42,840 --> 01:45:45,400
Speaker 3: for the future of the Rockets with Jayleen Green because

2335
01:45:45,400 --> 01:45:47,960
Speaker 3: he doesn't seem afraid. He's just learning. I like that.

2336
01:45:48,280 --> 01:45:51,360
Speaker 2: And then Thompson, you know, like, yes, there they have

2337
01:45:51,439 --> 01:45:53,759
Speaker 2: a good team. But it's like what we've talked about,

2338
01:45:53,840 --> 01:45:57,679
Speaker 2: experience goes a long way, coaching goes a long way,

2339
01:45:57,760 --> 01:45:59,400
Speaker 2: and Steve Kurr has been doing this.

2340
01:45:59,479 --> 01:46:02,200
Speaker 4: And I the deciding factor in this game to me

2341
01:46:02,479 --> 01:46:06,880
Speaker 4: is gonna be the last two games. Houston came out

2342
01:46:06,920 --> 01:46:09,599
Speaker 4: and handled business. Absolutely if they can do that again.

2343
01:46:10,800 --> 01:46:12,280
Speaker 4: That's the winning formula for them.

2344
01:46:12,360 --> 01:46:12,519
Speaker 1: Yep.

2345
01:46:12,600 --> 01:46:14,280
Speaker 4: If it's a tight game, Golden State is gonna win.

2346
01:46:14,400 --> 01:46:14,599
Speaker 1: Yeah.

2347
01:46:14,880 --> 01:46:18,400
Speaker 4: Yes, And that's the thing, like enough to not be

2348
01:46:18,680 --> 01:46:19,880
Speaker 4: in doubt down the stretch.

2349
01:46:19,960 --> 01:46:23,439
Speaker 2: If it's three minutes left and the Warriors are down seven,

2350
01:46:24,040 --> 01:46:25,439
Speaker 2: Houston can't be comfortable.

2351
01:46:25,520 --> 01:46:29,759
Speaker 7: No, Like, that's exactly a couple threes. And like, let's say, Jimmy,

2352
01:46:29,800 --> 01:46:31,599
Speaker 7: it's a three. We know he doesn't like those threes.

2353
01:46:31,640 --> 01:46:34,240
Speaker 7: He doesn't take them, he doesn't take them. But any

2354
01:46:34,600 --> 01:46:36,720
Speaker 7: it's gonna I mean, I'm excited. I'm looking forward to it.

2355
01:46:36,800 --> 01:46:37,559
Speaker 4: Oh, I can't wait.

2356
01:46:37,680 --> 01:46:38,080
Speaker 3: I can't wait.

2357
01:46:38,120 --> 01:46:39,639
Speaker 2: I make some burgers like I told you, and watch

2358
01:46:39,680 --> 01:46:42,000
Speaker 2: this game, you know, so it'll be good.

2359
01:46:42,479 --> 01:46:45,960
Speaker 3: All right, Martin, who do you think wins game seven?

2360
01:46:46,000 --> 01:46:47,439
Speaker 3: And why don't you give us a little update?

2361
01:46:47,960 --> 01:46:50,840
Speaker 12: I think there's Houston Rockets win game seven? You said,

2362
01:46:50,840 --> 01:46:52,440
Speaker 12: what's change? Cherry Age?

2363
01:46:52,760 --> 01:46:53,120
Speaker 4: Yeah?

2364
01:46:53,520 --> 01:46:54,400
Speaker 15: Age age?

2365
01:46:55,560 --> 01:46:57,439
Speaker 4: Do I need more? I need more?

2366
01:46:58,400 --> 01:47:01,320
Speaker 12: Draymond Green could be the next US for Men spokesperson.

2367
01:47:01,360 --> 01:47:03,320
Speaker 12: With all the grays and the beer. He let that,

2368
01:47:03,439 --> 01:47:05,280
Speaker 12: he letting that thing out, ain't he listen?

2369
01:47:05,400 --> 01:47:05,479
Speaker 6: Ye?

2370
01:47:05,840 --> 01:47:06,040
Speaker 1: Yes?

2371
01:47:06,240 --> 01:47:07,920
Speaker 4: That just shows you what stress looks like.

2372
01:47:07,960 --> 01:47:10,040
Speaker 12: In a man's life because Traymard Greens got more money

2373
01:47:10,040 --> 01:47:11,280
Speaker 12: than I'll ever imagine that.

2374
01:47:11,400 --> 01:47:12,960
Speaker 4: But we were in college at the same time.

2375
01:47:13,320 --> 01:47:16,760
Speaker 12: Your boy right here undefeated, no Grays, look at that

2376
01:47:16,920 --> 01:47:19,559
Speaker 12: also been in much less fights past thirty than Draymond.

2377
01:47:21,439 --> 01:47:21,880
Speaker 3: That's good.

2378
01:47:21,920 --> 01:47:22,559
Speaker 4: That's a good point.

2379
01:47:22,600 --> 01:47:23,000
Speaker 3: That's good.

2380
01:47:23,120 --> 01:47:23,360
Speaker 4: Yeah.

2381
01:47:23,439 --> 01:47:25,479
Speaker 12: With six minutes left in the third quarter of the

2382
01:47:25,520 --> 01:47:28,400
Speaker 12: Pacers have a eighty two to seventy three league. Cleveland

2383
01:47:28,479 --> 01:47:31,640
Speaker 12: has not led yet in today's game, despite leading the

2384
01:47:31,800 --> 01:47:34,559
Speaker 12: entire the Eastern Conference the whole time being the one

2385
01:47:34,600 --> 01:47:39,439
Speaker 12: seed Pacers. Being led and scoring by aaron Ne Smith

2386
01:47:39,520 --> 01:47:45,520
Speaker 12: is really a even efforts. He's got thirteen, Nieman's got fourteens,

2387
01:47:45,680 --> 01:47:49,320
Speaker 12: Turners got eight, Nemhard with eleven, I'm sorry, Nebrard with fifteen,

2388
01:47:49,360 --> 01:47:52,439
Speaker 12: and Halliburton with eleven. So just about everybody has scored

2389
01:47:52,880 --> 01:47:54,599
Speaker 12: besides Ben Shepherd stepping up.

2390
01:47:54,640 --> 01:47:56,680
Speaker 4: Ben Shepard, he's willing to play three minutes. HEAs oh

2391
01:47:56,800 --> 01:47:57,120
Speaker 4: for one.

2392
01:47:57,360 --> 01:47:59,439
Speaker 12: But almost every if you've been in the game for

2393
01:47:59,720 --> 01:48:01,400
Speaker 12: the Indiana Pacers.

2394
01:48:01,080 --> 01:48:01,679
Speaker 4: You have scored.

2395
01:48:01,680 --> 01:48:04,280
Speaker 12: They're running an eight man rotation right now, and it's

2396
01:48:04,640 --> 01:48:06,240
Speaker 12: again it's been a for them.

2397
01:48:06,600 --> 01:48:10,759
Speaker 4: It's been a ten point game. Basically since jump.

2398
01:48:11,040 --> 01:48:12,679
Speaker 12: At the end of the first quarter, it was thirty

2399
01:48:12,720 --> 01:48:16,160
Speaker 12: six to twenty five Cleveland, I mean Indiana, Cleveland being

2400
01:48:16,240 --> 01:48:19,080
Speaker 12: led and scoring by Donovan Mitchell sixteen points.

2401
01:48:18,800 --> 01:48:24,000
Speaker 4: But eighteen shots, one for eight from three. You know, Anthony,

2402
01:48:24,040 --> 01:48:26,000
Speaker 4: that was one free for three and everybody's you know,

2403
01:48:26,360 --> 01:48:30,240
Speaker 4: at least he's not James Harden and not shooting, not shooting.

2404
01:48:30,360 --> 01:48:32,240
Speaker 4: James Harden would have been one for two from three,

2405
01:48:32,479 --> 01:48:34,720
Speaker 4: exactly fifty. What do you want?

2406
01:48:34,760 --> 01:48:38,120
Speaker 12: Evan Wibley with thirteen points, Darius Garland out for this game.

2407
01:48:38,680 --> 01:48:41,759
Speaker 12: It looks like it wasn't just rest in that Miami series.

2408
01:48:41,800 --> 01:48:44,200
Speaker 12: Why Darius Garland wasn't playing that toe a little bit

2409
01:48:44,200 --> 01:48:47,240
Speaker 12: more serious than it seemed to be. So just I

2410
01:48:47,280 --> 01:48:49,320
Speaker 12: think at this point the news for Darius Garland's when

2411
01:48:49,320 --> 01:48:52,040
Speaker 12: he comes back is the news. We're an hour away

2412
01:48:52,439 --> 01:48:55,879
Speaker 12: from Game seven tip for the Warriors and the Rockets.

2413
01:48:55,920 --> 01:48:59,360
Speaker 12: Gary Payton, the second not playing today. He's got an injury.

2414
01:48:59,439 --> 01:49:02,320
Speaker 12: Sunday Night Baseball, the Braves with a two to nothing

2415
01:49:02,400 --> 01:49:04,519
Speaker 12: lead over the Dodgers.

2416
01:49:04,280 --> 01:49:06,439
Speaker 4: Right now in Atlanta, and we have.

2417
01:49:06,520 --> 01:49:10,800
Speaker 12: A doubleheader game two live right now, Cardinals and the

2418
01:49:10,840 --> 01:49:14,120
Speaker 12: Mets for a piece top of the fourth inning, game

2419
01:49:14,160 --> 01:49:17,000
Speaker 12: one of that double hudder. The Cardinals won it six

2420
01:49:17,160 --> 01:49:17,599
Speaker 12: to five.

2421
01:49:18,080 --> 01:49:20,080
Speaker 4: Back to you, guys, Thanks Martin.

01:50:13,400 --> 01:50:15,960
Speaker 3: give me a piece of the answer, not the entire thing.

2440

Speaker 3: So let's start.

2441
01:50:17,400 --> 01:50:21,840

2446
01:50:30,080 --> 01:50:33,760
Speaker 2: All right, show me the Jets. That is correct. They

2447
01:50:33,760 --> 01:50:35,080
Speaker 2: won the President's Trophy.

2448
01:50:35,120 --> 01:50:37,760

2593
01:57:47,480 --> 01:57:49,160

2594
01:57:49,160 --> 01:57:51,800
Speaker 12: out in the early two thousands. It's not any of

2595
01:57:51,840 --> 01:57:53,840
