I don't remember the subject matter Djore. 9 00:00:26,800 --> 00:00:29,800 Speaker 2: I know what the subject matter Dajore is.

James Vanderbeek. Great 14 00:00:44,640 --> 00:00:46,400 Speaker 2: to be back. I think it's probably been five or 15 00:00:46,440 --> 00:00:48,920 Speaker 2: six months since I've been in the big chair here, 16 00:00:49,560 --> 00:00:52,680 Speaker 2: one of my favorite things to do because the audience 17 00:00:52,800 --> 00:00:54,960 Speaker 2: is just incredible. I think most of you know by 18 00:00:54,960 --> 00:00:57,360 Speaker 2: now because I come on almost every week during the 19 00:00:57,400 --> 00:01:00,920 Speaker 2: football season. But former NFL offensive line I'm in five 20 00:01:01,000 --> 00:01:04,440 Speaker 2: team seven years. Not one of you remembers one memorable 21 00:01:04,480 --> 00:01:07,560 Speaker 2: thing from my playing career, but you know what, it 22 00:01:07,640 --> 00:01:09,959 Speaker 2: was enough to get me in this chair, so I 23 00:01:10,080 --> 00:01:12,920 Speaker 2: will take it. Forty five years old, haven't had to 24 00:01:12,920 --> 00:01:15,920 Speaker 2: get a real job yet, not really planning on getting one. 25 00:01:16,560 --> 00:01:20,200 Speaker 2: And yes, filling in for Dan. Being with the dan Nets, 26 00:01:20,400 --> 00:01:24,360 Speaker 2: especially on a meet Friday, is in fact as fun 27 00:01:24,400 --> 00:01:28,400 Speaker 2: as it looks. Paullie just surprised me in the morning meeting. 28 00:01:28,520 --> 00:01:33,120 Speaker 2: I'm already planning for what they're gonna have at lunch. 29 00:01:33,800 --> 00:01:36,480 Speaker 2: And the menu on a meet Friday. During the morning 30 00:01:36,520 --> 00:01:38,640 Speaker 2: meeting where we go over some of the topics, Pollie 31 00:01:38,800 --> 00:01:44,080 Speaker 2: brought out sausage and crispy bacon. It was like it 32 00:01:44,120 --> 00:01:47,319 Speaker 2: was like a sneak attack. Meet Friday breakfast, dessert. It's 33 00:01:47,360 --> 00:01:49,400 Speaker 2: a plate of morale to get the day gone. I 34 00:01:49,520 --> 00:01:52,440 Speaker 2: love it. What's on the menu for this afternoon. 35 00:01:52,040 --> 00:01:53,960 Speaker 3: I'm glad you asked. We really catered it to what 36 00:01:54,000 --> 00:01:58,720 Speaker 3: you love. Handheld meats. We have both brats and Italian sausage. 37 00:01:58,760 --> 00:02:01,640 Speaker 3: I like Italian sausages, chili cheese dogs, a lot of 38 00:02:01,640 --> 00:02:05,480 Speaker 3: people love those. And a huge crock of barbecue bake 39 00:02:05,560 --> 00:02:07,680 Speaker 3: beans chock full of bacon as well. 40 00:02:07,920 --> 00:02:11,240 Speaker 2: Ooh, I love baked beans. And yes, I appreciate the 41 00:02:11,280 --> 00:02:15,080 Speaker 2: handheld because actually I'm not driving back to Pennsylvania for 42 00:02:15,120 --> 00:02:17,800 Speaker 2: the show. Today, I'll be driving back down to the 43 00:02:17,880 --> 00:02:21,120 Speaker 2: Jersey Shore where my family is, so probably even a 44 00:02:21,200 --> 00:02:25,280 Speaker 2: longer drive, but that will be awesome. I'll have several 45 00:02:25,320 --> 00:02:27,760 Speaker 2: of the handheld meets. You know what's not awesome, by 46 00:02:27,840 --> 00:02:31,600 Speaker 2: the way, what's going on with the hockey and NBA. 47 00:02:32,400 --> 00:02:35,640 Speaker 2: I mean the Stanley Cup Final. The Panthers beat the 48 00:02:35,639 --> 00:02:38,919 Speaker 2: Oilers last night. They're up three to zero. We've got 49 00:02:38,919 --> 00:02:43,040 Speaker 2: the Celtics taken on the Mavericks tonight. They're up three 50 00:02:43,080 --> 00:02:46,880 Speaker 2: to oho. This stinks. I mean, like, I don't really 51 00:02:46,919 --> 00:02:51,600 Speaker 2: care who wins these series. I grew up outside of Philadelphia. 52 00:02:51,639 --> 00:02:53,880 Speaker 2: I'm a Philly four for four fan, right so I 53 00:02:54,000 --> 00:02:58,360 Speaker 2: like the Sixers, the Flyers, the Phillies, the Eagles. I 54 00:02:58,520 --> 00:03:01,120 Speaker 2: just want these games to be competitive. I want these 55 00:03:01,160 --> 00:03:05,240 Speaker 2: series to be competitive. I love Game seven, like that 56 00:03:05,320 --> 00:03:09,200 Speaker 2: game seven Pacers Knicks, that was awesome. I want as 57 00:03:09,200 --> 00:03:12,200 Speaker 2: many close games as possible. I want as many close 58 00:03:12,280 --> 00:03:17,239 Speaker 2: series as possible for these finals, finals and final. I 59 00:03:17,320 --> 00:03:19,640 Speaker 2: love how the hockey calls the Stanley Cup Final not 60 00:03:19,639 --> 00:03:22,640 Speaker 2: the Stanley Cup Finals. To both have a really good 61 00:03:22,720 --> 00:03:27,560 Speaker 2: chance of being sweeps. Stinks. It's brutal is there anybody 62 00:03:27,639 --> 00:03:30,079 Speaker 2: out there that likes that is going to be a 63 00:03:30,080 --> 00:03:33,000 Speaker 2: sweet man? I'm assuming Florida Panthers fans and Celtics fans 64 00:03:33,200 --> 00:03:36,200 Speaker 2: they have to be the only people that are genuinely 65 00:03:36,240 --> 00:03:38,120 Speaker 2: happy this might be a sweep. PAULI. 66 00:03:38,280 --> 00:03:40,160 Speaker 3: Yeah, if you're a fan of the team that where 67 00:03:40,160 --> 00:03:42,280 Speaker 3: it's a grind to watch them in the title game 68 00:03:42,360 --> 00:03:44,800 Speaker 3: or the series, it's to get it over with. You're like, great, 69 00:03:44,880 --> 00:03:47,280 Speaker 3: get to the parade. It's like a stomach ache. But 70 00:03:47,320 --> 00:03:49,600 Speaker 3: if you're a national sports fan, it also makes these 71 00:03:50,240 --> 00:03:53,960 Speaker 3: these two finals, final and finals not that memorable. You know, 72 00:03:54,040 --> 00:03:55,320 Speaker 3: they won't be a one of the Oh look at 73 00:03:55,320 --> 00:03:58,320 Speaker 3: that all time great matchup between the Celtics and whomever 74 00:03:58,720 --> 00:04:02,480 Speaker 3: was in it. Games is memorable. Four games almost never memorable. 75 00:04:02,520 --> 00:04:05,440 Speaker 2: But Marv, what if I told you right now, I 76 00:04:05,520 --> 00:04:09,320 Speaker 2: guarantee your team is gonna win the series? Would you 77 00:04:09,400 --> 00:04:11,880 Speaker 2: rather the sweep in four or win it in seven. 78 00:04:12,920 --> 00:04:14,720 Speaker 4: I'm a glut for punishment, so I'm gonna say win 79 00:04:14,760 --> 00:04:15,280 Speaker 4: it in seven. 80 00:04:15,680 --> 00:04:17,600 Speaker 2: No, wouldn't everybody wanted to win it in seven? If 81 00:04:17,640 --> 00:04:21,039 Speaker 2: you know your team's gonna still win, you would like 82 00:04:21,120 --> 00:04:25,080 Speaker 2: the drama. You would like a zillion people watching Game 83 00:04:25,160 --> 00:04:27,680 Speaker 2: seven and not knowing what's gonna happen. I feel like 84 00:04:27,760 --> 00:04:31,800 Speaker 2: even Celtics fans and Panthers fans, if they still knew 85 00:04:31,839 --> 00:04:35,000 Speaker 2: their team was gonna win, would rather there be more games. 86 00:04:35,000 --> 00:04:36,440 Speaker 2: Seat and you are a Celtics fan. 87 00:04:36,320 --> 00:04:38,279 Speaker 5: But if there is no if you know your team's 88 00:04:38,320 --> 00:04:41,800 Speaker 5: gonna win, there is no drama, right yeah, So what 89 00:04:41,800 --> 00:04:43,159 Speaker 5: do we wait in the seven games where we know 90 00:04:43,160 --> 00:04:43,680 Speaker 5: we're gonna win? 91 00:04:43,720 --> 00:04:45,480 Speaker 2: Just do it in for right, PAULI. 92 00:04:45,760 --> 00:04:47,680 Speaker 3: It's kind of like a super Bowl that's a blowout. 93 00:04:48,080 --> 00:04:50,560 Speaker 3: While you could relax earlier, you could grab a beer 94 00:04:50,600 --> 00:04:53,000 Speaker 3: earlier if your team blows someone out in a super Bowl. 95 00:04:53,200 --> 00:04:55,000 Speaker 3: Remember back in the day when the Bills were getting 96 00:04:55,000 --> 00:04:56,080 Speaker 3: blown out in Super Bowls. 97 00:04:56,360 --> 00:04:59,120 Speaker 2: Every Super Bowl when I was growing up, from eighty 98 00:04:59,240 --> 00:05:03,159 Speaker 2: five to the Packers beat the until the Broncos beat 99 00:05:03,160 --> 00:05:05,040 Speaker 2: the Packers. Yeah, every Super bowls a bow. 100 00:05:05,120 --> 00:05:05,400 Speaker 1: You know what? 101 00:05:05,440 --> 00:05:08,520 Speaker 2: The Bengals Niners is pretty good that Joe Montana to 102 00:05:08,560 --> 00:05:09,159 Speaker 2: John Taylor. 103 00:05:09,279 --> 00:05:11,400 Speaker 3: We were showing a couple old Super Bowls on NFL 104 00:05:11,440 --> 00:05:13,839 Speaker 3: Network and they were over at halftime, like that one 105 00:05:13,880 --> 00:05:16,000 Speaker 3: with Doug Williams where they scored thirty five points. In 106 00:05:16,000 --> 00:05:16,840 Speaker 3: a quarter or something when. 107 00:05:16,760 --> 00:05:19,160 Speaker 2: The Bronco's up ten to nothing, yes, first of you, 108 00:05:19,200 --> 00:05:20,479 Speaker 2: wo and know first of you we're gonna chime in. 109 00:05:20,560 --> 00:05:21,080 Speaker 2: Yes they were. 110 00:05:21,200 --> 00:05:22,520 Speaker 6: They were up ten to nine on the Giants, and 111 00:05:22,520 --> 00:05:24,279 Speaker 6: they were up ten to nothing on Washington and lost 112 00:05:24,320 --> 00:05:25,480 Speaker 6: badly in both of those games. 113 00:05:25,800 --> 00:05:27,640 Speaker 3: PAULI had an interesting pole question yesterday. 114 00:05:27,760 --> 00:05:29,760 Speaker 6: If you're say you're a Celtic THEND or a Panthers fan, 115 00:05:29,920 --> 00:05:32,200 Speaker 6: and you have tickets to Game five at home, do 116 00:05:32,240 --> 00:05:32,719 Speaker 6: you want. 117 00:05:32,520 --> 00:05:33,400 Speaker 4: The guaranteed sweep? 118 00:05:33,400 --> 00:05:35,360 Speaker 6: What do you roll the dice on not knowing how 119 00:05:35,400 --> 00:05:37,520 Speaker 6: the series is gonna play out because you want to 120 00:05:37,560 --> 00:05:38,679 Speaker 6: go to Game five? 121 00:05:38,839 --> 00:05:42,520 Speaker 2: If I have tickets for Game five, I roll the 122 00:05:42,560 --> 00:05:45,560 Speaker 2: dice because I probably also have tickets for Game seven. 123 00:05:46,320 --> 00:05:48,960 Speaker 2: What are the odds? I mean, look, we know there's 124 00:05:48,960 --> 00:05:51,800 Speaker 2: a sports books everywhere. They said odds on everything. What 125 00:05:51,920 --> 00:05:56,159 Speaker 2: are the odds? I mean, it's highly unlikely that either 126 00:05:56,200 --> 00:05:58,919 Speaker 2: one of these teams will blow it. I actually think 127 00:05:59,680 --> 00:06:04,000 Speaker 2: they opposite question is interesting, which is, let's pretend we're 128 00:06:04,040 --> 00:06:08,520 Speaker 2: MAVs fans or let's pretend we're Oilers fans. How important 129 00:06:08,680 --> 00:06:12,680 Speaker 2: is it to you guys that you don't get swept 130 00:06:13,320 --> 00:06:15,520 Speaker 2: or do you not really care? Do you almost just 131 00:06:15,600 --> 00:06:17,880 Speaker 2: want to get it over with at this point, because 132 00:06:17,920 --> 00:06:20,480 Speaker 2: you know, even if you win a token game four 133 00:06:21,000 --> 00:06:23,920 Speaker 2: like the Mavericks tonight or the Oilers tomorrow night, you're 134 00:06:23,920 --> 00:06:26,240 Speaker 2: still not gonna actually win this Yeries, You're just delaying. 135 00:06:25,920 --> 00:06:28,440 Speaker 3: The inevitable, right, I think that's a good point. It's like, 136 00:06:28,560 --> 00:06:31,599 Speaker 3: if you're a Mavericks fan you get that win, is 137 00:06:31,640 --> 00:06:33,920 Speaker 3: it false hope or real hope? If you go back 138 00:06:33,960 --> 00:06:38,120 Speaker 3: to the four Alcs Yankees versus Red Sox, the Yankees 139 00:06:38,120 --> 00:06:40,040 Speaker 3: were killing them in the first three games they were 140 00:06:40,080 --> 00:06:42,799 Speaker 3: I think game three, the Red Sox lost like fifteen 141 00:06:42,800 --> 00:06:45,000 Speaker 3: to two to the Yankees or something, and the Red 142 00:06:45,000 --> 00:06:48,760 Speaker 3: Sox won Game four, and I remember the Boston media going, oh, 143 00:06:48,839 --> 00:06:51,040 Speaker 3: we're delaying the inevitable. Can we get this over with? 144 00:06:51,279 --> 00:06:52,960 Speaker 3: They end up winning it one of the greatest comebacks 145 00:06:52,960 --> 00:06:55,920 Speaker 3: in sports history. But it's got to feel weird, Seaton. 146 00:06:56,640 --> 00:06:59,799 Speaker 5: I don't think it's about hope or delaying the inevitable 147 00:07:00,080 --> 00:07:00,840 Speaker 5: about pride. 148 00:07:01,480 --> 00:07:04,520 Speaker 7: We didn't get swept. WHOA, I'll take the one win 149 00:07:04,880 --> 00:07:06,560 Speaker 7: all day because we didn't get swept. At least we 150 00:07:06,560 --> 00:07:07,240 Speaker 7: didn't get swept. 151 00:07:07,720 --> 00:07:12,200 Speaker 2: Certainly Seaton as a player. Definitely, that would be the mindset. 152 00:07:12,280 --> 00:07:15,600 Speaker 2: Hell yeah, I would be. I mean, watch tomorrow night, 153 00:07:16,320 --> 00:07:20,360 Speaker 2: watch those oilers come flying out of their skates. I 154 00:07:20,400 --> 00:07:24,800 Speaker 2: mean those guys. Those guys have so much pride. I 155 00:07:25,160 --> 00:07:30,280 Speaker 2: love hockey guys like they they will go down with 156 00:07:31,320 --> 00:07:33,800 Speaker 2: fist swinging. I mean they will go They will do 157 00:07:34,000 --> 00:07:36,840 Speaker 2: everything they can that They almost gave it a pretty 158 00:07:36,840 --> 00:07:39,320 Speaker 2: good run last night. They had those two, didn't McDavid 159 00:07:39,440 --> 00:07:41,520 Speaker 2: have two assists in the last period they made it. 160 00:07:41,600 --> 00:07:44,320 Speaker 3: They went from four to one to four to three. PAULI, 161 00:07:44,480 --> 00:07:47,120 Speaker 3: you played football. You played seven years eight years of football. 162 00:07:47,560 --> 00:07:50,960 Speaker 3: Were you ever shut out? And were you ever almost 163 00:07:50,960 --> 00:07:52,520 Speaker 3: shut out? And the difference between the. 164 00:07:52,480 --> 00:07:56,360 Speaker 2: Two, Yes, you know what so funny you say that. 165 00:07:57,480 --> 00:08:00,560 Speaker 2: I remember this and it still bothers me to this day. 166 00:08:01,360 --> 00:08:05,720 Speaker 2: I sometimes talk about it with my college teammate and roommate, 167 00:08:05,920 --> 00:08:09,560 Speaker 2: Kyle Brandt. Obviously, people know Angry runs Good Morning Football. 168 00:08:10,160 --> 00:08:14,040 Speaker 2: He was our running back. We lost to Colgate senior 169 00:08:14,120 --> 00:08:18,200 Speaker 2: year twenty eight. Nothing. The last drive of the game. 170 00:08:18,920 --> 00:08:22,320 Speaker 2: We got down to like the three yard line and 171 00:08:22,560 --> 00:08:24,440 Speaker 2: I don't know if we ran it three times and 172 00:08:24,520 --> 00:08:29,680 Speaker 2: threw it once or whatever. We didn't score, and it 173 00:08:29,760 --> 00:08:36,240 Speaker 2: was devastating. It was like so insulting, embarrassing. I will 174 00:08:36,240 --> 00:08:38,040 Speaker 2: say this though I tell the story sometimes when I 175 00:08:38,080 --> 00:08:41,679 Speaker 2: give like speaking engagements, there's like three minutes left in 176 00:08:41,720 --> 00:08:44,240 Speaker 2: the game, we're down twenty eight nothing.

It's 205 00:10:11,160 --> 00:10:13,880 Speaker 2: a way you can engage with the show. Love those 206 00:10:13,960 --> 00:10:16,480 Speaker 2: of you that check us out a little bit later 207 00:10:16,559 --> 00:10:21,160 Speaker 2: on in the day via the podcast. I've got one 208 00:10:21,160 --> 00:10:24,120 Speaker 2: of those, the Ross Tucker Football Podcast. That's probably the 209 00:10:24,200 --> 00:10:27,760 Speaker 2: question I want to hear to start at eight seven, 210 00:10:27,920 --> 00:10:31,240 Speaker 2: seven to three DP Show. I want to know if 211 00:10:31,280 --> 00:10:33,839 Speaker 2: you're if you were the team that's down three to zero, 212 00:10:34,679 --> 00:10:38,200 Speaker 2: how important is it to you that you don't get 213 00:10:38,200 --> 00:10:41,080 Speaker 2: swept or is there part of you that just wanted 214 00:10:41,160 --> 00:10:45,120 Speaker 2: to be over with because the series is so disappointing 215 00:10:45,480 --> 00:10:47,360 Speaker 2: the fact that you're not going to be able to 216 00:10:47,440 --> 00:10:52,200 Speaker 2: get the championship is so disappointed. Does anybody feel that way. 217 00:10:52,760 --> 00:10:54,240 Speaker 2: The last thing I would say that I think is 218 00:10:54,280 --> 00:10:57,560 Speaker 2: really interesting. These leagues have to be losing a lot 219 00:10:57,600 --> 00:11:01,160 Speaker 2: of money. I mean, think about the extra for the networks, 220 00:11:01,200 --> 00:11:04,160 Speaker 2: the extra ad revenue. If it just goes to game 221 00:11:04,240 --> 00:11:08,000 Speaker 2: five or Game six or Game seven, there's a can 222 00:11:08,000 --> 00:11:11,040 Speaker 2: you imagine if like the Super Bowl ended at halftime, 223 00:11:12,240 --> 00:11:14,000 Speaker 2: you know, and they didn't have all the second half 224 00:11:14,000 --> 00:11:17,320 Speaker 2: of TV ads. It's gotta be so tempting for these 225 00:11:17,400 --> 00:11:20,480 Speaker 2: leagues to try to help it, help it in just 226 00:11:20,520 --> 00:11:23,640 Speaker 2: a little subtle way to get to Game five, six 227 00:11:23,760 --> 00:11:25,439 Speaker 2: or seven. Fritzy on the sweet thing. 228 00:11:25,440 --> 00:11:27,720 Speaker 4: And it's not just about pride not wanting to get swept. 229 00:11:27,720 --> 00:11:29,040 Speaker 6: You want to win at least one game, but you 230 00:11:29,080 --> 00:11:31,280 Speaker 6: don't want them celebrating on your court. Whether you're a 231 00:11:31,280 --> 00:11:33,680 Speaker 6: fan or especially a player, with that bother you even more. 232 00:11:33,760 --> 00:11:36,360 Speaker 6: You got swept, and the Celtics are celebrating on the 233 00:11:36,440 --> 00:11:39,160 Speaker 6: Dallas floor, and the oh and the Panthers are celebrating 234 00:11:39,160 --> 00:11:41,120 Speaker 6: on the Oilers ice, it's got to make it even worse. 235 00:11:41,360 --> 00:11:45,240 Speaker 2: I think there's part of that. But then on some level, 236 00:11:45,280 --> 00:11:48,480 Speaker 2: the flip side is it's like, Okay, yeah, they're celebrating 237 00:11:48,480 --> 00:11:50,360 Speaker 2: but they don't have any fans here. No one's like, 238 00:11:50,480 --> 00:11:53,440 Speaker 2: you know, it's not as cool of an experience for 239 00:11:54,400 --> 00:11:56,760 Speaker 2: the winning team if they do it on the road. 240 00:11:57,040 --> 00:11:59,079 Speaker 2: But you're right, there's a pride thing. It's like when 241 00:11:59,120 --> 00:12:02,679 Speaker 2: someone I'm on your logo at midfield, it's just kind 242 00:12:02,720 --> 00:12:05,839 Speaker 2: of a respecting I'm gonna say this. I don't think 243 00:12:05,840 --> 00:12:08,240 Speaker 2: they're both gonna get swept. I don't know if it's 244 00:12:08,280 --> 00:12:11,520 Speaker 2: the Mavericks tonight or I don't know if it's the 245 00:12:11,520 --> 00:12:15,720 Speaker 2: Oilers tomorrow night. I think one of those teams is 246 00:12:15,800 --> 00:12:19,320 Speaker 2: gonna step up and find a way to get a win. 247 00:12:19,400 --> 00:12:22,480 Speaker 2: By the way, Fritzy stepped up. In terms of our guests, 248 00:12:22,480 --> 00:12:25,560 Speaker 2: we'll have Chris Mannix to talk about all of this 249 00:12:25,800 --> 00:12:30,680 Speaker 2: NBA stuff at ten twenty am Eastern Time from Sports Illustrated. 250 00:12:30,720 --> 00:12:33,560 Speaker 2: After him, Darren Ravel, who a lot of you know, 251 00:12:33,640 --> 00:12:36,640 Speaker 2: sports business guy.

The top one scrambled 499 00:24:24,960 --> 00:24:28,800 Speaker 2: cheese eggs, and I think I'm top ten in the world. 500 00:24:29,240 --> 00:24:33,199 Speaker 2: I eat like I will make myself a dozen to 501 00:24:33,280 --> 00:24:36,520 Speaker 2: fifteen scrambled cheese eggs and eat them like on a 502 00:24:36,560 --> 00:24:37,480 Speaker 2: Sunday morning. 503 00:24:37,520 --> 00:24:38,840 Speaker 7: Like currently at this fighting weight. 504 00:24:39,160 --> 00:24:42,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, so I could have I could eat two dozen 505 00:24:43,160 --> 00:24:46,359 Speaker 2: scrambled cheese eggs without any question. 506 00:24:47,000 --> 00:24:48,640 Speaker 3: Like if you went to one of those hotels where 507 00:24:48,680 --> 00:24:51,560 Speaker 3: they have a continental breakfast. 508 00:24:51,520 --> 00:24:53,720 Speaker 2: The whole tray is scrambled cheese eggs. Be good TV ye, 509 00:24:54,040 --> 00:24:55,520 Speaker 2: all right, and then what do you think? The other 510 00:24:55,560 --> 00:24:58,479 Speaker 2: one is very different? The other one. I'm like somewhat 511 00:24:58,480 --> 00:25:04,840 Speaker 2: addicted to chocolate covered pretzels. Whoa chocolate cover? If you 512 00:25:04,920 --> 00:25:07,440 Speaker 2: brought over like a couple of bags of chocolate cover pretzels, 513 00:25:07,680 --> 00:25:10,439 Speaker 2: I could just keep going forever. I would actually like 514 00:25:10,520 --> 00:25:12,520 Speaker 2: to know how long I could go before I would 515 00:25:12,560 --> 00:25:15,080 Speaker 2: actually say no more. It would be more of an 516 00:25:15,200 --> 00:25:19,280 Speaker 2: arm issue than a mouth or stomach issue, everything would 517 00:25:19,320 --> 00:25:25,080 Speaker 2: be all right. All right, let's get to uh, let's 518 00:25:25,080 --> 00:25:27,879 Speaker 2: get to this Trevor Lawrence story, because some of you 519 00:25:27,960 --> 00:25:32,480 Speaker 2: might have missed it. You know, it's June thirteenth, Paul. 520 00:25:32,480 --> 00:25:34,840 Speaker 2: You got the exact numbers, yea, Trevor. 521 00:25:34,640 --> 00:25:38,480 Speaker 3: Lawrence five years, two hundred and seventy five million, thirty 522 00:25:38,480 --> 00:25:41,720 Speaker 3: seven million dollars signing bonus. The guaranteed money, which is 523 00:25:41,760 --> 00:25:44,800 Speaker 3: the most important thing, is two hundred million dollars, and 524 00:25:44,840 --> 00:25:46,879 Speaker 3: he gets one hundred and forty two million of it 525 00:25:48,359 --> 00:25:49,639 Speaker 3: in the first half of the contents. 526 00:25:49,760 --> 00:25:51,760 Speaker 2: So here's how it works. He's getting one hundred and 527 00:25:51,800 --> 00:25:55,320 Speaker 2: forty two million dollars no matter what. He gets two 528 00:25:55,359 --> 00:25:58,680 Speaker 2: hundred million dollars if he basically suffers a curR ending injury. 529 00:25:58,880 --> 00:26:02,440 Speaker 2: So two hundred million is guaranteed for injury. One hundred 530 00:26:02,440 --> 00:26:05,399 Speaker 2: and forty two million is guaranteed no matter what. 531 00:26:05,600 --> 00:26:07,840 Speaker 3: Yeah, he gets fifty five million, which ties with Joe 532 00:26:07,920 --> 00:26:10,200 Speaker 3: Burrow for the average annual salary of the highest in 533 00:26:10,240 --> 00:26:14,440 Speaker 3: the league. That passes Goff, Herbert Lamar, Jackson, Jalen Hurts 534 00:26:14,560 --> 00:26:17,159 Speaker 3: in Mahomes. He's ahead of all those guys. 535 00:26:17,320 --> 00:26:23,200 Speaker 2: It's so weird because it feels like there's no in between, 536 00:26:23,840 --> 00:26:27,520 Speaker 2: there's no middle ground. The team either moves on from 537 00:26:27,520 --> 00:26:30,359 Speaker 2: you or they say, Yep, this is the guy we 538 00:26:30,400 --> 00:26:33,360 Speaker 2: want starting a quarterback for a long time, and they 539 00:26:33,400 --> 00:26:37,400 Speaker 2: pay them this type of money. I mean, I don't 540 00:26:37,440 --> 00:26:39,960 Speaker 2: know if he is a top ten quarterback in the NFL. 541 00:26:40,000 --> 00:26:42,919 Speaker 2: He certainly did not play like one last year. And 542 00:26:42,960 --> 00:26:45,879 Speaker 2: what's so interesting to me about that is he's under 543 00:26:45,880 --> 00:26:48,440 Speaker 2: contract for two more years. I mean, he's got he 544 00:26:48,960 --> 00:26:50,960 Speaker 2: was he had the last year of his rookie contract 545 00:26:51,000 --> 00:26:53,080 Speaker 2: coming up, and then they had the fifth year option. 546 00:26:54,119 --> 00:26:58,080 Speaker 2: But these teams, I think, once they decide that this 547 00:26:58,119 --> 00:27:00,200 Speaker 2: is what we're gonna do, this is who we're going 548 00:27:00,000 --> 00:27:02,240 Speaker 2: going with, they want to get It's almost like they 549 00:27:02,240 --> 00:27:03,800 Speaker 2: want to pay him as soon as possible before it 550 00:27:03,800 --> 00:27:06,719 Speaker 2: goes up even more. Because now the price just one 551 00:27:06,800 --> 00:27:11,200 Speaker 2: up for Tua, the price just one up for Jordan Love. Heck, 552 00:27:11,240 --> 00:27:14,440 Speaker 2: even guys like Dak and Matthew Stafford who are looking 553 00:27:14,520 --> 00:27:16,719 Speaker 2: for new deals are probably thrilled. Paulie. 554 00:27:17,160 --> 00:27:19,119 Speaker 3: Like you said, it seems like there's two directions for 555 00:27:19,160 --> 00:27:21,840 Speaker 3: a quarterback, especially a first round quarterback. You get to 556 00:27:21,920 --> 00:27:24,120 Speaker 3: year three, you either pick up the fifth year option, 557 00:27:24,200 --> 00:27:26,880 Speaker 3: and that's your franchise direction and you have to pay 558 00:27:26,880 --> 00:27:29,440 Speaker 3: the going rate, which is the next highest of all time. 559 00:27:30,160 --> 00:27:32,439 Speaker 3: Or you like Mitch Trubisky with the Bears or Jamis 560 00:27:32,440 --> 00:27:34,680 Speaker 3: Winston with the Bucks. They say we're moving on, and 561 00:27:34,760 --> 00:27:36,240 Speaker 3: we did three years. We gave it a try, and 562 00:27:36,280 --> 00:27:38,119 Speaker 3: we're moving on and going into the production. There's no 563 00:27:38,200 --> 00:27:40,680 Speaker 3: middle ground for that second contract. 564 00:27:41,040 --> 00:27:43,320 Speaker 2: The only middle ground guy I can think of right 565 00:27:43,359 --> 00:27:46,280 Speaker 2: now is like Baker Mayfield. He signed three years, one 566 00:27:46,359 --> 00:27:50,119 Speaker 2: hundred mil. He's getting thirty three million year. Everybody else 567 00:27:50,840 --> 00:27:54,240 Speaker 2: it's like your fifty million plus or you're less than 568 00:27:54,280 --> 00:27:57,200 Speaker 2: ten million. I would love to know how many quarterbacks? 569 00:27:57,280 --> 00:27:59,280 Speaker 2: Can we look that up? Do we have a stat person? 570 00:28:00,000 --> 00:28:03,040 Speaker 2: How many quarterbacks are making between ten and forty million 571 00:28:03,080 --> 00:28:06,280 Speaker 2: dollars a year? It cannot be very many. I want 572 00:28:06,320 --> 00:28:08,840 Speaker 2: to get some of the callers involved as well. Eight 573 00:28:08,920 --> 00:28:12,440 Speaker 2: seven seven three DP show and I'll check out your 574 00:28:12,440 --> 00:28:15,240 Speaker 2: social post to me as well. At Ross Tucker, NFL, Yeah. 575 00:28:15,080 --> 00:28:18,000 Speaker 3: PAULI Ross hear the football Analyst, Trevor Lawrence. His first year, 576 00:28:18,119 --> 00:28:20,560 Speaker 3: everyone gives a hall pass because an urban Meyer his 577 00:28:20,640 --> 00:28:24,520 Speaker 3: second year, four thousand yards, twenty five touchdowns, eight picks. 578 00:28:24,560 --> 00:28:27,440 Speaker 3: He's hit his stride. Last year he drops to twenty 579 00:28:27,480 --> 00:28:30,359 Speaker 3: one touchdowns and goes up to fourteen picks. Does he 580 00:28:30,520 --> 00:28:32,560 Speaker 3: feel like a guy worth two hundred fifty million dollars? 581 00:28:33,000 --> 00:28:33,040 Speaker 9: No. 582 00:28:34,240 --> 00:28:38,880 Speaker 2: However, I think you could argue that a true franchise 583 00:28:39,040 --> 00:28:44,440 Speaker 2: quarterback in the NFL is still undervalued because you either 584 00:28:44,600 --> 00:28:48,480 Speaker 2: have one or you don't, and if you don't have one, 585 00:28:49,120 --> 00:28:54,719 Speaker 2: you have absolutely no chance. Trevor Lawrence proved last year. 586 00:28:54,760 --> 00:28:57,000 Speaker 2: I guess two years ago now he could come from 587 00:28:57,040 --> 00:29:00,280 Speaker 2: behind and win a playoff game against a fellow young 588 00:29:00,840 --> 00:29:04,960 Speaker 2: star quarterback like Justin Herbert. And if people forget, he 589 00:29:05,080 --> 00:29:07,600 Speaker 2: and the Jags actually played pretty well in the divisional 590 00:29:07,720 --> 00:29:13,000 Speaker 2: round out in Kansas City. So Trevor Lawrence proved to 591 00:29:13,120 --> 00:29:17,880 Speaker 2: the Jags that year that he's capable of winning playoff 592 00:29:17,960 --> 00:29:21,400 Speaker 2: games and being in the mix with guys like Mahomes, 593 00:29:21,520 --> 00:29:23,960 Speaker 2: even if he's not as good. Let's go to Andrew 594 00:29:24,400 --> 00:29:27,360 Speaker 2: who's in Washington? Take our first call to day eight, 595 00:29:27,440 --> 00:29:30,280 Speaker 2: seven to seven to three DP show Andrew what's up man? 596 00:29:31,320 --> 00:29:34,640 Speaker 11: Hey Ross Tucker, Welcome to the Dan Paffick Show. Always 597 00:29:34,640 --> 00:29:36,720 Speaker 11: great to see in the big chair. Good morning, Dan 598 00:29:36,840 --> 00:29:40,480 Speaker 11: Ed's Happy Meet Friday to you all. You hit it 599 00:29:40,560 --> 00:29:42,840 Speaker 11: on the head. I'm not sure if Trevor Lawrence he 600 00:29:42,960 --> 00:29:45,440 Speaker 11: is not a top ten quarterback. A few weeks back, 601 00:29:45,520 --> 00:29:49,360 Speaker 11: maybe ten to fourteen days, Dan had Mike Tannenbaum on, 602 00:29:49,760 --> 00:29:52,640 Speaker 11: and Mike Tannonbaum said it was an easy choice Jordan 603 00:29:52,720 --> 00:29:54,760 Speaker 11: Love all day. Now, he might have put Jordan Love 604 00:29:54,800 --> 00:29:57,360 Speaker 11: a little too high on his list, but again, you know, 605 00:29:57,520 --> 00:30:01,560 Speaker 11: he just set the bar even higher. Trevor Lawrence ranks 606 00:30:01,600 --> 00:30:05,520 Speaker 11: top ten in besides yearly salary now and guaranteed money 607 00:30:05,640 --> 00:30:10,480 Speaker 11: is his like sixty one giveaways in three seasons. That 608 00:30:10,640 --> 00:30:13,600 Speaker 11: runs him like twelfth all time. So yeah, he's up there. 609 00:30:13,760 --> 00:30:16,000 Speaker 2: And you know, and Andrew, you know what's funny, by 610 00:30:16,000 --> 00:30:18,320 Speaker 2: the way, and I appreciate the call. You know what's funny. 611 00:30:19,320 --> 00:30:22,840 Speaker 2: I had Greg Cosel the NFL Films legend. I have 612 00:30:22,960 --> 00:30:25,160 Speaker 2: him on the Ross Soccer Football podcast every week, and 613 00:30:25,200 --> 00:30:27,360 Speaker 2: I think it was last week or maybe the week before. 614 00:30:28,360 --> 00:30:32,120 Speaker 2: His exact quote, guys was we need to start to 615 00:30:32,400 --> 00:30:37,000 Speaker 2: lower the expectations for Trevor Lawrence. And his point was 616 00:30:37,640 --> 00:30:39,680 Speaker 2: because he was the number one recruit in high school 617 00:30:39,680 --> 00:30:42,880 Speaker 2: for multiple years, because he won the National Championship at 618 00:30:42,920 --> 00:30:46,720 Speaker 2: Clemson as a true freshman, and because he was number 619 00:30:46,760 --> 00:30:50,760 Speaker 2: one overall pick, people talked about him like he's a 620 00:30:51,000 --> 00:30:55,040 Speaker 2: generational quarterback, like a once every twenty years guy. He's 621 00:30:55,120 --> 00:30:59,280 Speaker 2: not Josh Allen, He's not Mahomes. I mean, he's a 622 00:30:59,400 --> 00:31:03,680 Speaker 2: good player. But I think Greg's point was that he 623 00:31:03,840 --> 00:31:06,320 Speaker 2: maybe got a little overhyped. I don't know that we are. 624 00:31:07,120 --> 00:31:10,720 Speaker 2: I mean, the Jaguars certainly aren't lowering the expectations at 625 00:31:10,760 --> 00:31:13,880 Speaker 2: this point with the contract that they just gave him. 626 00:31:14,280 --> 00:31:16,440 Speaker 2: We're not lowering the standards of the show. We're gonna 627 00:31:16,480 --> 00:31:19,160 Speaker 2: have Chris Mannix because we got to talk about the 628 00:31:19,320 --> 00:31:24,320 Speaker 2: NBA Finals, what to expect from the Mavericks tonight.

What's the latest with Luca? 630 00:31:30,120 --> 00:31:34,160 Speaker 2: I mean, people were just eviscerating Luca after Game three 631 00:31:34,320 --> 00:31:36,760 Speaker 2: a couple nights ago. We'll talk about it with Chris 632 00:31:36,840 --> 00:31:39,640 Speaker 2: Mannix from Sports Illustrated thirty eight minutes past the hour 633 00:31:39,680 --> 00:31:40,840 Speaker 2: here on The Dan Patrick Show. 634 00:31:41,640 --> 00:31:43,760 Speaker 1: Be sure to catch the live edition of The Dan 635 00:31:43,880 --> 00:31:47,440 Speaker 1: Patrick Show weekdays at nine am Eastern six am Pacific 636 00:31:47,760 --> 00:31:51,200 Speaker 1: on Fox Sports Radio and the iHeartRadio. 637 00:31:50,400 --> 00:31:55,640 Speaker 2: WAP man, I love when friends or colleagues are listening. 638 00:31:56,960 --> 00:32:02,160 Speaker 2: General So's chicken is named for are So sung tongue 639 00:32:03,440 --> 00:32:07,280 Speaker 2: now usually transliterated as well.

Chris, compared 657 00:33:09,160 --> 00:33:11,720 Speaker 2: to other normal people. 658 00:33:12,240 --> 00:33:16,960 Speaker 9: I mean, the short answer is pizza, because I could 659 00:33:17,000 --> 00:33:20,040 Speaker 9: go through a large pie faster I think anybody I know. 660 00:33:20,240 --> 00:33:26,000 Speaker 9: The more granular answer is the buffalo chicken sandwich from 661 00:33:26,040 --> 00:33:28,760 Speaker 9: the Fours in Boston. The fors is a kind of 662 00:33:28,800 --> 00:33:34,240 Speaker 9: famous sports bar in the Boston area, and at one 663 00:33:34,280 --> 00:33:36,720 Speaker 9: point when I was living around there, I would eat 664 00:33:36,840 --> 00:33:40,040 Speaker 9: probably three or four of those a week. It's actually 665 00:33:40,080 --> 00:33:44,080 Speaker 9: called the Doug Flutie in Boston. It's named for, of course, 666 00:33:44,160 --> 00:33:48,040 Speaker 9: the great XBC quarterback, and I could probably hoover that 667 00:33:48,200 --> 00:33:49,479 Speaker 9: in about fifteen seconds. 668 00:33:49,720 --> 00:33:52,600 Speaker 2: I actually just thought of something about these eating contests. 669 00:33:53,160 --> 00:33:56,680 Speaker 2: Would you have a couple beers ahead of time? Because 670 00:33:57,200 --> 00:33:59,920 Speaker 2: after I've had a couple of beers and I'm hungry, 671 00:34:00,520 --> 00:34:04,240 Speaker 2: I can eat like an absolute ravishing mad ma. So 672 00:34:04,360 --> 00:34:06,920 Speaker 2: it fills up your stomach a little bit. But man, 673 00:34:07,040 --> 00:34:09,080 Speaker 2: when you're hungry, you've had you've been drinking for a 674 00:34:09,120 --> 00:34:10,919 Speaker 2: couple hours, you can really eat. 675 00:34:11,080 --> 00:34:13,840 Speaker 9: Thoughts, Yeah, but I don't think that helps you in 676 00:34:13,960 --> 00:34:17,719 Speaker 9: the moment, right, Like, you get hungry after you know, 677 00:34:18,080 --> 00:34:20,360 Speaker 9: eight to ten beers and you get home, and the 678 00:34:20,480 --> 00:34:24,040 Speaker 9: idea of ordering like a whopper sounds like a good 679 00:34:24,120 --> 00:34:26,840 Speaker 9: one in the moment, though, you're just adding stuff to 680 00:34:26,880 --> 00:34:29,080 Speaker 9: your stomach, So the only thing I'd want is a 681 00:34:29,120 --> 00:34:30,960 Speaker 9: little bit of water to help wash that down. 682 00:34:31,560 --> 00:34:33,640 Speaker 2: All right, let's get into the NBA stuff. Chris, thank 683 00:34:33,680 --> 00:34:34,800 Speaker 2: you by the way for humoring me. 684 00:34:34,920 --> 00:34:35,080 Speaker 6: There. 685 00:34:35,200 --> 00:34:39,280 Speaker 2: I like it. Let's start with I guess the question 686 00:34:39,440 --> 00:34:42,880 Speaker 2: in my mind, which is are the Celtics just this 687 00:34:43,280 --> 00:34:47,200 Speaker 2: good or are the Mavericks kind of choking a little 688 00:34:47,200 --> 00:34:48,080 Speaker 2: bit here in the finals. 689 00:34:49,719 --> 00:34:51,839 Speaker 9: I think it's more about the Celtics being this good. 690 00:34:52,120 --> 00:34:55,600 Speaker 9: I mean, going on a twelve and two run during 691 00:34:55,640 --> 00:34:58,680 Speaker 9: the conference playoffs, up three to nothing in this round. 692 00:34:59,200 --> 00:35:02,279 Speaker 9: You have to start with just how good they are. 693 00:35:02,440 --> 00:35:06,080 Speaker 9: They were, you know, historically good in some ways during 694 00:35:06,120 --> 00:35:09,920 Speaker 9: the regular season. Their point differential was fantastic. Their offense 695 00:35:10,640 --> 00:35:13,080 Speaker 9: was you know, clicking at you know, in some areas 696 00:35:13,160 --> 00:35:15,839 Speaker 9: all time great rate. They were the most prolific three 697 00:35:15,880 --> 00:35:18,880 Speaker 9: point shooting team in the NBA. They were just I 698 00:35:18,920 --> 00:35:21,120 Speaker 9: think it was a fraction of a percentage from being 699 00:35:21,160 --> 00:35:24,560 Speaker 9: the number one team in efficiency in that area as well. 700 00:35:24,680 --> 00:35:28,359 Speaker 9: They they are great. They've got great offensive players, they've 701 00:35:28,400 --> 00:35:32,080 Speaker 9: got elite wing defenders. You really have to to go 702 00:35:32,280 --> 00:35:36,520 Speaker 9: deep into the Celtics bench to find any real areas 703 00:35:36,880 --> 00:35:39,279 Speaker 9: of weakness and on top of all that, like they've 704 00:35:39,320 --> 00:35:41,759 Speaker 9: got the experience that comes with kind of you know, 705 00:35:41,880 --> 00:35:44,160 Speaker 9: going through the highs and lows of. 706 00:35:44,480 --> 00:35:46,640 Speaker 3: Being a contender in recent years. 707 00:35:46,680 --> 00:35:49,080 Speaker 9: They lost in the finals two years ago, they lost 708 00:35:49,080 --> 00:35:51,640 Speaker 9: in the conference finals last year. They're kind of the 709 00:35:51,960 --> 00:35:58,360 Speaker 9: the the perfect combination of when talent and opportunity and 710 00:35:58,600 --> 00:36:01,480 Speaker 9: preparation kind of meat each other at one point. 711 00:36:01,800 --> 00:36:03,920 Speaker 2: How sustainable is this chrift? Like I don't know all 712 00:36:03,960 --> 00:36:06,680 Speaker 2: their contracts and what they've got for next year. I mean, 713 00:36:07,480 --> 00:36:08,960 Speaker 2: is this a group that's going to be able to 714 00:36:09,000 --> 00:36:10,239 Speaker 2: stay together the next few years? 715 00:36:10,719 --> 00:36:14,800 Speaker 9: So the NBA has done a fantastic job of trying 716 00:36:14,920 --> 00:36:19,560 Speaker 9: to legislate dynasties out of the sport. Like, you know, 717 00:36:20,280 --> 00:36:24,040 Speaker 9: dynasties over the last twenty years have been fun to 718 00:36:24,120 --> 00:36:27,080 Speaker 9: talk about. Whether it's the Lakers dynasty in the early 719 00:36:27,160 --> 00:36:30,560 Speaker 9: two thousands, San Antonio had one that's spread out over 720 00:36:30,800 --> 00:36:34,839 Speaker 9: twelve to fourteen years. Miami was a mini dynasty, most 721 00:36:34,920 --> 00:36:39,120 Speaker 9: recently Golden State. They make for great TV ratings, but 722 00:36:39,239 --> 00:36:42,279 Speaker 9: the NBA doesn't love them because the NBA, you know, 723 00:36:42,440 --> 00:36:45,359 Speaker 9: really going back to the days of David stern as 724 00:36:45,440 --> 00:36:50,160 Speaker 9: commissioner has sought NFL style parody, and look, this year 725 00:36:50,840 --> 00:36:52,680 Speaker 9: is going to be the sixth year in a row 726 00:36:53,200 --> 00:36:56,560 Speaker 9: there has been a new NBA champion crowned, and that's 727 00:36:56,600 --> 00:37:00,560 Speaker 9: what the NBA loves like. They want new faces teams 728 00:37:01,000 --> 00:37:03,919 Speaker 9: in the finals every single year. All that being said, 729 00:37:04,640 --> 00:37:07,240 Speaker 9: the Celtics are as equipped as any team in recent 730 00:37:07,360 --> 00:37:10,839 Speaker 9: memory to run off two, maybe three championships. 731 00:37:11,280 --> 00:37:12,080 Speaker 3: They're stars. 732 00:37:12,400 --> 00:37:15,600 Speaker 9: Jason Tatum and Jalen Brown are under contract for the 733 00:37:15,680 --> 00:37:19,080 Speaker 9: long term. Jalen Brown just signed what was the richest 734 00:37:19,160 --> 00:37:22,640 Speaker 9: contract in NBA history last summer, and Jason Tatum is 735 00:37:22,719 --> 00:37:25,760 Speaker 9: about to sign what's going to be the richest contract 736 00:37:26,120 --> 00:37:29,800 Speaker 9: in NBA history this summer. Drew Holliday has an extension. 737 00:37:30,200 --> 00:37:33,640 Speaker 9: Christaps porzingis got an extension. Derek White's the one guy 738 00:37:33,840 --> 00:37:36,320 Speaker 9: who's only got one year left on his contract. But 739 00:37:36,400 --> 00:37:38,840 Speaker 9: if the Celtics win a championship, there's no doubt in 740 00:37:38,920 --> 00:37:42,000 Speaker 9: my mind that Wick grouse Beck and ownership in Boston 741 00:37:42,239 --> 00:37:45,319 Speaker 9: is going to extend him as well. So you've got 742 00:37:45,320 --> 00:37:48,680 Speaker 9: a bunch of guys in their twenties and early thirties. Yeah, 743 00:37:48,719 --> 00:37:50,879 Speaker 9: you gotta worry about Al Horford, who's thirty eight years 744 00:37:50,920 --> 00:37:53,239 Speaker 9: old and how long he can go. But this is 745 00:37:53,320 --> 00:37:55,880 Speaker 9: a window Russ that I think is open for two 746 00:37:56,000 --> 00:37:56,719 Speaker 9: or three more years. 747 00:37:57,360 --> 00:37:59,239 Speaker 2: Let's look at the other side of it, which is 748 00:37:59,480 --> 00:38:04,560 Speaker 2: Luka and the MAVs and Kyrie. What's going on here? 749 00:38:04,760 --> 00:38:07,359 Speaker 2: And do you think that the critique of Luca has 750 00:38:07,400 --> 00:38:08,560 Speaker 2: gone a little bit too far? 751 00:38:09,360 --> 00:38:09,400 Speaker 9: No? 752 00:38:09,640 --> 00:38:10,080 Speaker 3: I don't. 753 00:38:10,239 --> 00:38:13,479 Speaker 9: And look during Game three, I was on social media 754 00:38:13,520 --> 00:38:16,920 Speaker 9: tweeting that, you know, as great as Luca is on 755 00:38:17,040 --> 00:38:21,000 Speaker 9: the other end of the floor, defensively, it's oftentimes like 756 00:38:21,120 --> 00:38:25,360 Speaker 9: playing five on four, like he's just not engaged on 757 00:38:25,560 --> 00:38:29,399 Speaker 9: that end. And what the Celtics are doing, which very 758 00:38:29,480 --> 00:38:32,799 Speaker 9: few of the Western Conference contenders did, is they're attacking him. 759 00:38:33,040 --> 00:38:35,800 Speaker 9: Like you watch these games and they're putting Luca in 760 00:38:35,880 --> 00:38:38,880 Speaker 9: a whole lot of actions, making him defend on that 761 00:38:39,040 --> 00:38:40,320 Speaker 9: end of the floor. They're doing the same thing to 762 00:38:40,440 --> 00:38:43,120 Speaker 9: Kyrie Irving, but I think Irving's having a little more 763 00:38:43,360 --> 00:38:47,680 Speaker 9: success defensively Lucas. It's just there's just not a lot 764 00:38:47,719 --> 00:38:49,520 Speaker 9: of effort on that end of the floor. And you 765 00:38:49,560 --> 00:38:52,120 Speaker 9: can say, look, he's been banged up. He assumes a 766 00:38:52,239 --> 00:38:55,760 Speaker 9: lot of the offensive burden. But in order for Dallas 767 00:38:56,440 --> 00:38:59,440 Speaker 9: to be a consistent championship contender in order for them 768 00:38:59,440 --> 00:39:01,880 Speaker 9: to even win a championship over the next four or 769 00:39:01,920 --> 00:39:04,279 Speaker 9: five years, Luca has got to become more of a 770 00:39:04,360 --> 00:39:07,320 Speaker 9: two way player. He doesn't have to become a defensive stopper, 771 00:39:07,760 --> 00:39:10,920 Speaker 9: but he can't be a defensive liability, which he is 772 00:39:11,040 --> 00:39:14,800 Speaker 9: right now. Now Beyond Luca, there are other problems the 773 00:39:14,920 --> 00:39:19,440 Speaker 9: Mavericks have. Their supporting cast has been non existent. You 774 00:39:19,520 --> 00:39:22,560 Speaker 9: look at some of the numbers for PJ. Washington, for 775 00:39:22,760 --> 00:39:27,480 Speaker 9: Derek Jones Junior, for Daniel Gafford, for Maxi Kleeber, for 776 00:39:27,719 --> 00:39:31,480 Speaker 9: Josh Green. None of these guys have been impact players. 777 00:39:31,520 --> 00:39:34,399 Speaker 9: Derek Lively was impactful last game for the first time 778 00:39:34,640 --> 00:39:37,520 Speaker 9: really all series. So you know, there's been an argument 779 00:39:37,600 --> 00:39:41,560 Speaker 9: that Luca and Kyrie are the greatest offensive backcourt in 780 00:39:41,719 --> 00:39:45,520 Speaker 9: nb history. Even if you think they are, you can't 781 00:39:45,640 --> 00:39:49,960 Speaker 9: win at the highest level without your role players stepping up. 782 00:39:50,000 --> 00:39:51,200 Speaker 2: Look at Boston's role players. 783 00:39:51,280 --> 00:39:54,960 Speaker 9: Drew Holiday has been fantastic. Derek White at sixteen points 784 00:39:55,360 --> 00:39:57,719 Speaker 9: in the last game. Sam Houser has shot lights out 785 00:39:58,080 --> 00:40:01,200 Speaker 9: in two of the three games of this series. The Celtics, 786 00:40:01,680 --> 00:40:05,319 Speaker 9: in addition to their stars showing up, are getting outstanding 787 00:40:05,440 --> 00:40:09,440 Speaker 9: performances from their role players, whereas Dallases have barely shown up. 788 00:40:10,080 --> 00:40:13,279 Speaker 2: You gotta check him out on social media. He is fantastic, 789 00:40:13,360 --> 00:40:15,440 Speaker 2: as you can tell. He is all over the NBA, 790 00:40:15,640 --> 00:40:19,280 Speaker 2: has been for a long time at SI. Chris Mannis 791 00:40:19,480 --> 00:40:21,600 Speaker 2: Chris really appreciate the time, man, Thank you so much. 792 00:40:22,160 --> 00:40:25,759 Speaker 2: You got it. Russ. Two interesting notes, by the way, 793 00:40:25,920 --> 00:40:29,440 Speaker 2: about the Celtics and Chris mannis number one. He was 794 00:40:29,520 --> 00:40:33,160 Speaker 2: a ball boy for them growing up for a long time, 795 00:40:33,800 --> 00:40:35,840 Speaker 2: which is always going to be a little interesting because 796 00:40:36,160 --> 00:40:39,239 Speaker 2: he's worked in the business so long now that you 797 00:40:39,480 --> 00:40:43,480 Speaker 2: disassociate with that for the most part. But it's interesting. 798 00:40:43,600 --> 00:40:47,360 Speaker 2: I grew up a huge Eagles fan. They never wanted me. 799 00:40:47,480 --> 00:40:49,759 Speaker 2: I never played for them, but now that I do 800 00:40:49,840 --> 00:40:52,440 Speaker 2: their preseason games and do other work for them, it 801 00:40:52,600 --> 00:40:54,960 Speaker 2: kind of comes back a little bit each year. Plus 802 00:40:55,040 --> 00:40:57,879 Speaker 2: it's hard, like all my family and friends are diehards, 803 00:40:58,239 --> 00:41:00,480 Speaker 2: and so it becomes a social thing, you know, it 804 00:41:00,520 --> 00:41:04,239 Speaker 2: becomes I want to have something to engage with with 805 00:41:04,400 --> 00:41:05,320 Speaker 2: my friends and family. 806 00:41:05,440 --> 00:41:08,120 Speaker 3: Pauli and Mannix was there in the early nineties working 807 00:41:08,160 --> 00:41:10,960 Speaker 3: equipment and he would go out and he would set 808 00:41:11,040 --> 00:41:13,239 Speaker 3: up the other team, the other team's locker room, the 809 00:41:13,280 --> 00:41:15,480 Speaker 3: other thing, the other team that was his designation. So 810 00:41:15,600 --> 00:41:17,719 Speaker 3: there's pictures of him. He's got where he's on the 811 00:41:17,840 --> 00:41:20,960 Speaker 3: court during warmups with his arm against Michael Jordan's back, 812 00:41:21,040 --> 00:41:23,680 Speaker 3: helping him work on shots, or because he called him 813 00:41:23,680 --> 00:41:25,200 Speaker 3: over and you're supposed to help out how they want. 814 00:41:25,239 --> 00:41:28,319 Speaker 3: It's weird. He's got pictures of him with like Ray 815 00:41:28,360 --> 00:41:30,960 Speaker 3: Allen where he's pushing against his back, or he's got 816 00:41:31,000 --> 00:41:32,880 Speaker 3: stories about doing stuff with Alan Iverson. I mean, his 817 00:41:32,960 --> 00:41:33,840 Speaker 3: stories are fantastic. 818 00:41:34,280 --> 00:41:36,439 Speaker 2: By the way, I at one point in my life 819 00:41:37,120 --> 00:41:40,880 Speaker 2: I was a part owner of the Boston Celtics. My 820 00:41:41,000 --> 00:41:43,440 Speaker 2: dad gave me like a piece of stock, remember that 821 00:41:43,560 --> 00:41:46,560 Speaker 2: used to be publicly traded. For Christmas. One year, I 822 00:41:46,640 --> 00:41:50,319 Speaker 2: got a share of Boston Celtics stocks. So I gotta 823 00:41:50,400 --> 00:41:53,560 Speaker 2: tell you, I'm feeling really good about winning this championship tonight. 824 00:41:53,640 --> 00:41:57,320 Speaker 2: Hopefully one hour down, two to go. Stay at Patrick 825 00:41:57,360 --> 00:41:58,360 Speaker 2: Show on a meet Friday,
