Speaker 4: Welcome in episode twenty three of What's Right with Nick Wright,
Speaker 4: the podcast and YouTube show. Like rate subscriber you, We're
Speaker 4: so close to fifty thousand subscribers on YouTube. I don't
Speaker 4: know how many subscribers we have on iTunes and Spotify,
Speaker 4: but I appreciate if you subscribe on all the platforms
Speaker 4: that you either that you consume the show. However, today's
Speaker 4: show is going to be a little different today's show,
Speaker 4: and it's a tragic day for this to be the case. Demanse,
Speaker 4: who is the only Celtics fan I like, is not
Speaker 4: here today. I mean he is here. I don't know
Speaker 4: if we can take the wide shot briefly and show
Speaker 4: he can lean into the shop for a moment, Demonse,
Speaker 4: go ahead and lean in. Wave hello. Demonse. Unfortunately is sick.
Speaker 4: He has lost his voice. Now how did he lose
Speaker 4: his voice? We're not sure. I would imagine, you know,
Speaker 4: a five hour session at a hookah bar On Friday
Speaker 4: didn't help. Now he would claim that didn't actually happen,
Speaker 4: but I would assume. All I know is I left
Speaker 4: town Friday, he had a voice. I came back town Saturday.
Speaker 4: He didn't have a voice anymore. But he will be back,
Speaker 4: hopefully soon. In his place is none other than my
Speaker 4: wonderful wife, who you will hear from in just a moment. Danielle,
Speaker 4: thank you for taking the time with us today. Try
Speaker 4: not to screw this up. But as we always do
Speaker 4: on the show, we first talk about what we're not
Speaker 4: talking about. So here is what is not on today's show.
Speaker 4: What is not on today's show is Zion getting cleared
Speaker 4: for contact, Bill Belichick has same intensity as any year,
Speaker 4: and Aaron Donald signing with Kanye West's agency Donda Sports.
Speaker 4: None of that is on the show today because we
Speaker 4: have too many basketball related things and one, believe it
Speaker 4: or not, baseball related thing to discuss. So now I
Speaker 4: turned to you, Danielle, what are we starting with today?
Speaker 3: The Celtics beat Miami.
Speaker 4: Yeah, so you're sad. I am a little sad about it.
Speaker 5: Yeah?
Speaker 3: Why did Boston win Game seven? All right?
Speaker 4: So Boston should have been able to take care of this.
Speaker 4: In six, Miami looked like they were broken and beaten
Speaker 4: since we've last talked. But Jimmy Butler had an all
Speaker 4: time Game six in Boston to carry Miami, right, you
Speaker 4: all know that. And then Game seven comes around and
Speaker 4: Kyle Lowry's not very good. Tyler hero tries to but
Speaker 4: is awful. Gave Benson doesn't do much aside from one shot,
Speaker 4: Max Streuce doesn't do much, which is why Boston led
Speaker 4: wire to wire. However, there are two parts of this
Speaker 4: game I want to discuss, and none of it's to
Speaker 4: take away from Boston. One is the NBA all of
Speaker 4: a sudden, allowing for I know that they can retroactively
Speaker 4: go back and change a three to a two or
Speaker 4: a two to a three, the raft can win the
Speaker 4: shots taken wave his finger like we're gonna review that.
Speaker 4: That's one thing. But what they did with Miami with
Speaker 4: Max Struce his three five possessions later being waved off
Speaker 4: because they said he stepped out of bounds, and then
Speaker 4: on replay it wasn't even clear he stepped out of bounds.
Speaker 4: Look like he Sean Elliott did it to me, which
Speaker 4: if you're watching the Western Conference finals, damn near thirty
Speaker 4: years ago, Seawan Elliott in the corner. I think they
Speaker 4: were playing the suns. I'm not certain got a three.
Speaker 4: His heels were over the line, but he kept his
Speaker 4: heels up in the air and he nailed it. That
Speaker 4: to me, not only am I not sure it was
Speaker 4: the right call, but I don't think you can minutes
Speaker 4: later take three points off the board. However, that's not
Speaker 4: why Miami lost, even though it did come down to
Speaker 4: a possession. Miami lost because they weren't good enough. But
Speaker 4: despite not being good enough, Boston's up thirteen with three
Speaker 4: and a half minutes left and then does every single
Speaker 4: thing they can do to lose that game. And if
Speaker 4: they had lost that game, Jimmy takes the three after
Speaker 4: they get another miss to take the lead with eighteen
Speaker 4: seconds left, it would have been, without a doubt, the
Speaker 4: biggest choke job in NBA history. Thirteen point lead in
Speaker 4: a game seven against a team that is dying, a
Speaker 4: team that has one guy you're afraid of to go
Speaker 4: to the finals, that would have been an unspeak loss. However,
Speaker 4: they were able to get through it. Now that did
Speaker 4: make me a little concerned with them for the finals,
Speaker 4: because they have played so well for the last five
Speaker 4: months now, but close games they have seemed to fall
Speaker 4: apart a bit at the end, so that concerns me.
Speaker 4: The Warriors experience concerns. We will talk more about that
Speaker 4: in a minute. But overall, why did Boston win. Boston
Speaker 4: won because they had five guys who on any given
Speaker 4: night could make winning plays for you in Tatum Brown,
Speaker 4: Smart Horford and Grant Williams, even though he wasn't very
Speaker 4: good in this series, So call it four guys. The
Speaker 4: Heat had one and a half, They had Jimmy Butler
Speaker 4: and then Bam out of Bayo a couple games. So
Speaker 4: I picked the Heat in seven. I ended up being
Speaker 4: wrong that anyone, and I'm not going to get into
Speaker 4: it right here. We did it on the television show.
Speaker 4: By the time you guys are hearing this on Tuesday,
Speaker 4: it will have been discussed. I want to make this
Speaker 4: very clearly, so anyone arguing that Jimmy Butler should have
Speaker 4: gone for two instead of three Flatley doesn't understand the
Speaker 4: math you It is. It is not a discussion. It
Speaker 4: is not a reasonable people can disagree. It is simply
Speaker 4: basic level math on why the three is so much.
Speaker 4: You know, what I will get into it here, just
Speaker 4: real quick, just real quick. Sorry. Let's just say you
Speaker 4: believe Jimmy Butler had an eighty percent chance of making
Speaker 4: a short jump shot or a layup on Horford, and
Speaker 4: eighty percent is way higher than he actually had. Even
Speaker 4: if he had an eighty percent chance of tying the game, there,
Speaker 4: the three is still the better shot. Here's why. So
Speaker 4: he has an eighty percent chance to tie it then,
Speaker 4: and again it's not eighty, but call it eighty. Then
Speaker 4: you then have to stop Boston, and because it's tied,
Speaker 4: they're holding for the last shot. So you say you
Speaker 4: have a fifty to fifty shot. So now you're eighty
Speaker 4: percent chance of winning is down to forty percent, And
Speaker 4: just by stopping them, you then have to win in overtime,
Speaker 4: which again would not have been a fifty to fifty
Speaker 4: shot because Butler had played all forty eight minutes. The
Speaker 4: Heat were not the better team, they had led the
Speaker 4: whole time. But give that a fifty to fifty shot.
Speaker 4: So eighty percent, fifty percent, fifty percent going for two,
Speaker 4: your best case scenario is a twenty percent chance to
Speaker 4: win the game. That's your best case scenario. You go
Speaker 4: for three and you make it. Even if Boston goes
Speaker 4: down and scores, you still have a chance because Boston
Speaker 4: has to go quick. So it's not it's it's not
Speaker 4: even a discussion. Jimmy made the right play. I didn't
Speaker 4: understand the Shrews call, and Boston almost had an epic
Speaker 4: choke job. I hope that answers your question. All right, Danielle,
Speaker 4: what's next?
Speaker 3: Your two fades are in the finals, the Warriors and
Speaker 3: the Celtics.
Speaker 4: Can't believe this my life. You got your Celtics Finals.
Speaker 4: Who do I have in the finals?
Speaker 3: Yeah?
Speaker 4: I don't know who's going to win. I can tell
Speaker 4: you who's going to lose, Danielle, who me? Yeah, no
Speaker 4: matter what, no matter who wins. I am so pardon
Speaker 4: me here.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's it. You know why because your mouth? What
Speaker 3: do you mean you just talk too much, too fast?
Speaker 4: Oh it's literally my job.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, well you know, Okay.
Speaker 4: Well here's the problem. If the Celtics win, I have
Speaker 4: takes from the past that are not gonna have aged well,
Speaker 4: ladies and gentlemen. I called Jalen Brown a homeless man's
Speaker 4: Kawhi Leonard. I called Jason Tatum the fourth best guy
Speaker 4: in his own draft class. I mocked Danny Ainge forever.
Speaker 4: I so, if the Celtics win, I look like an idiot.
Speaker 4: If the Warriors win, I guaranteed Steph would never make
Speaker 4: another finals. After they traded for Wiggins, I called Wiggins
Speaker 4: a bad player.
Speaker 3: I have no mouth. I'm boxed in talk too much.
Speaker 4: I am boxed in here. I don't know what I'm
Speaker 4: I think the Warriors are gonna win.
Speaker 3: My pick is the war I want the Warriors to win.
Speaker 3: Why I like the Warriors. Why I've always liked the Warriors.
Speaker 4: Why because it's a Cali teen. Okay, I'm saying I like.
Speaker 3: Staff, I like Draymond, I like Clay. Like come on now,
Speaker 3: that's a great team.
Speaker 4: Okay, well listen. I feel badly that Demand's not here
Speaker 4: today because the Celtics are his squad. He wanted to
Speaker 4: take a victory lap today. He's not well. Hopefully on
Speaker 4: Wednesday he can take his victory lap before the finals.
Speaker 4: Because I do think the Warriors are gonna win the finals.
Speaker 4: I do think they're gonna win Game one. What I
Speaker 4: also know is this Boston Celtics fans are blue collar,
Speaker 4: hard scrabble New Englanders. Warriors fans are not the old
Speaker 4: school Oakland fans, but the new Warriors fans are through
Speaker 4: through tech West Coast millionaire billionaire types.
Speaker 5: You know.
Speaker 4: The only common ground they have what hating me? That's
Speaker 4: the only Warriors and Celtic fans have in common. Like, Hey,
Speaker 4: the dude don't have as one in the mornings. He's
Speaker 4: a jackass, isn't he?
Speaker 3: Like?
Speaker 4: Yeah, we agree on that sucks? What I got him?
Speaker 4: What'd you say?
Speaker 3: I understand?
Speaker 4: Okay, but I've got the Warriors. I think the I
Speaker 4: don't think these games will be blowouts, and I think
Speaker 4: the late game execution favors the Warriors greatly. And it
Speaker 4: should be noted that the Warriors with a healthy Steph
Speaker 4: Clay and Draymond are twenty one and one under Steve
Speaker 4: Curran playoff series. Do you know the only time they lost?
Speaker 4: Who beat him? Come on, you know the only.
Speaker 3: Thing I don't know?
Speaker 4: You do know?
Speaker 5: No?
Speaker 4: No, no, no, The only one to ever beat him
Speaker 4: with Lebron the gre James. Okay, all right, what's next?
Speaker 3: Your MAVs lost? You still put Luca in twentieth in
Speaker 3: your top fifty.
Speaker 4: Yeah, people didn't like that.
Speaker 3: Defend yourself, explain how Dallas gets to the next level.
Speaker 4: All right, let me defend the Luca defense. If people
Speaker 4: want to know I had him in the top twenty,
Speaker 4: watch the Luca video. I went on YouTube, by the way,
Speaker 4: and check the views on the individual player videos, not
Speaker 4: the full episodes on because our great social team cuts
Speaker 4: each individual player video. People aren't watching them. Guys, go
Speaker 4: watch the Luca video. It'll be posted by the time
Speaker 4: this is up, and you'll see my defense for it.
Speaker 4: There's the precedent with Shack being on the top fifty.
Speaker 4: I had Lucas slotted in at twenty before this playoff run.
Speaker 4: This playoff run only even validated it further. Now, what
Speaker 4: do the MAVs need to do this summer? Because Jason
Speaker 4: Kidd talked about wanting to get them a secondary option,
Speaker 4: what they need to do with it. I love this
Speaker 4: flirtation with zach Levine. I love the idea of that
Speaker 4: a Zach Levine Jalen Brunson sign and trade. Maybe I
Speaker 4: like the idea of it. I would not be willing
Speaker 4: to pay Jalen Brunson thirty million a year now. Demand's
Speaker 4: aid to his credit brought up the rudy Gobert idea.
Speaker 4: I don't like the idea of Rudy Gobert. However, he
Speaker 4: does solve a lot of the MAVs problems, and I
Speaker 4: think Luca would get the most out of him offensively,
Speaker 4: if you can get anything out of him. But the
Speaker 4: idea of making Jalen Brunson Luca's co star for the
Speaker 4: time moving forward, it's just that I don't think he's
Speaker 4: good enough, and I do think the MAVs need to
Speaker 4: learn from the mistakes of other teams that have these
Speaker 4: transcendent players and try to microwave it. The Hornet screwed
Speaker 4: it up, or the Pelicans screwed it up with Anthony Davis,
Speaker 4: the Cavs screwed it up with Lebron. The Bucks did
Speaker 4: not screw it up with Giannis. Is the type of
Speaker 4: player you haven't don't be over zealous me like, we've
Speaker 4: got to resign Jalen if that's going to lock you
Speaker 4: into this team. Also, producers putting on the screen Luca
Speaker 4: the next Jokic, Give me a break, Give me a break,
Speaker 4: as idersand Jokic has also been to a conference finals.
Speaker 4: I get it, but nobody in their right mind. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 4: great job I see the other producers fled the building
Speaker 4: because they saw what a bad take that was. Luke
Speaker 4: is the next Yokich? All right, what's the last topic.
Speaker 3: The Lakers hired dam Almost?
Speaker 4: Well? You fourth times of charm? Darvinham, Darvinham?
Speaker 3: I bet that's right. Do you like that higher?
Speaker 4: I do like the higher. I do like Darvin Ham,
Speaker 4: not only because he was on the cover of Sports
Speaker 4: Illustrated when I was a kid shattering a backboard, but
Speaker 4: Imo Odoka, Manti Williams, Willie green Ty, Lou Steve Kerr.
Speaker 4: What do they all have in common? They're all incredibly
Speaker 4: successful head coaches, some very young, very limited experience, but
Speaker 4: were former players and instantly had success. So I like that.
Speaker 4: I also like the fact Mark Stein is reporting that
Speaker 4: the Lakers are gonna let Ham pick his own staff,
Speaker 4: something they were hesitant to do with other coaches in
Speaker 4: the past, and that Kurt Rambis is not gonna be
Speaker 4: sitting and coaching meetings giving his two cents. However, all
Speaker 4: of that is nice, None of it really matters for
Speaker 4: the Lakers if they don't find a trade partner for Westbrook.
Speaker 4: I know you were excited about Russ going to the Lakers.
Speaker 4: It was a total disaster. It couldn't have gone any worse,
Speaker 4: and so I like the ham Hire. However, that is
Speaker 4: twenty five percent of the job this summer. Fifty five
Speaker 4: percent of the job this summer is finding a trade
Speaker 4: partner for Westbrook. The other thirty percent is finding some
Speaker 4: athletic wings. It's a hell of a job. Rob Bolink
Speaker 4: has got in front of him. Luckily, he's about the
Speaker 4: worst guy for it. I can't believe they kept Polenka.
Speaker 4: All right, we'll be right back.
Speaker 6: If your football team had one option in their playbook,
Speaker 6: the results probably wouldn't be great. The same could be
Speaker 6: said for your investments. Sebo index options like SPX and
Speaker 6: XSP can help expand your investing strategies with cash settlement
Speaker 6: and potential tax advantages. If you're ready for a more

Speaker 3: How come I couldn't get that name right?
Speaker 4: I don't know. You crushed it?
Speaker 3: Thank you did?
Speaker 4: A good job. Oh thanks, dense better watches back? Oh what.
Speaker 3: Where they get their face from?
Speaker 4: My arms look good in that picture?
Speaker 3: Well they don't.
Speaker 4: Now I'm sorry that my regular workout time has turned
Speaker 4: into drive Danielle to work open the store.
Speaker 3: No, you were doing that before and still working out. No,
Speaker 3: you have excuses. You've gotten lazy. You rather play freaking
Speaker 3: fortnite and.
Speaker 4: Is new Fortnite's just I don't care.
Speaker 3: You always figure out something else to do. Didn't work out?
Speaker 4: When are you working out? I'll see you working out.
Speaker 3: I work out while I'm at work.
Speaker 4: Man.
Speaker 3: Do I need to stand up? I am hot salt?
Speaker 4: All right? You ready to go?
Speaker 3: Yeah?
Speaker 5: All right?
Speaker 4: You silence your phone because that's important.
Speaker 3: I wanted to make sure that it silence. Go ahead.
Speaker 4: Do you need me to do it silent?
Speaker 5: Well?
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, you leave me alone?
Speaker 4: You see how quick? Put your fisted up? All right?
Speaker 4: Welcome back in? What's right? Nick? Right? Danielle? Right in
Speaker 4: for Demonse today. Demanse unfortunately has laryngitis, otherwise known as
Speaker 4: spent all night at the hookah bar h. He's mad
Speaker 4: at me for saying that he's walking around right now angry.
Speaker 4: Can't take a Celtics victory. Laugh. He was so excited
Speaker 4: for today's show. But hey, listen, we all have to
Speaker 4: learn things. In Demonse's defense, I don't actually know he
Speaker 4: was at the hookah bar because whatever happened I'm happening
Speaker 4: to on Friday and Friday, I was out with this
Speaker 4: one in Philadelphia gambling all night. So I can't really
Speaker 4: talk trash myself. You ready to go? All right, We've
Speaker 4: got a serious topic to start this segment, Danielle, What
Speaker 4: are we discussing?
Speaker 3: Giants manager Gabe Kapler said he won't come out for
Speaker 3: the anthem due to the US gun violence. What are
Speaker 3: your thoughts?
Speaker 4: Okay? So I obviously respect and support Gabe Kapler's protest. Here,
Speaker 4: we spent a lot of time on the show last
Speaker 4: week talking about my thoughts on you know, guns in
Speaker 4: this country and what the unspeakable tragedy that happened in
Speaker 4: Ubaldi after the unspeakable tragedy that happened in Buffalo. So
Speaker 4: I don't want to actually discuss that part of it.
Speaker 4: If you want to see it or hear what I
Speaker 4: said about that, go to win the Thursday's episode from
Speaker 4: last week episode twenty two. Uh, what I do want
Speaker 4: to talk about is how unbelievable it is to me
Speaker 4: at how just fine so much of the media, sports
Speaker 4: and otherwise, how fine they are with being total abject hypocrites,
Speaker 4: and how they're reacting to this versus how they reacted
Speaker 4: to a different prominent San Francisco sports figure that took
Speaker 4: a stand during the national anthem because of an issue
Speaker 4: with the United States. It is. You could not have
Speaker 4: scripted a more one to one example. So you have
Speaker 4: Colin Kaepernick six years ago saying, because of police violence
Speaker 4: in this country, I am going to kneel during the anthem,
Speaker 4: and the entire sports world and newsworld and political world
Speaker 4: lost itch. And for years it was a topic. You
Speaker 4: had presidential candidates mentioning it. It was on It crossed
Speaker 4: over from sports to news. It was legitimately a lead
Speaker 4: story for months and months and months, multiple years. It
Speaker 4: was a discussion. Okay, in the twenty twenty election, it
Speaker 4: got brought up by politicians and on political news. Gabe
Speaker 4: Kapler does an almost identical thing. Instead of taking a knee,
Speaker 4: he's simply saying he's not even gonna come out of
Speaker 4: the clubhouse. His reasoning is not because of police violence,
Speaker 4: but because of general gun violence, and in his statement,
Speaker 4: by the way, he took some I think fair put
Speaker 4: some shots at the police, and it's met with a oh,
Speaker 4: that's interesting. Maybe it'll fit into the end of some
Speaker 4: of these shows. Maybe we'll squeeze in ninety seconds for
Speaker 4: it at the end of it, thirty seconds for it
Speaker 4: at the end of a newscast. If you ever needed
Speaker 4: more evidence that the reaction to Colin Kaepernick was not
Speaker 4: about respecting the flag, not about respecting the troops, not
Speaker 4: about patriotism, it was purely and always only about America's
Speaker 4: allergy to black folks protesting in any way, shape or form,
Speaker 4: then I don't know what more evidence you could you
Speaker 4: could need. There's a perfect example. It's the same city,
Speaker 4: it's the it's the same exact method of protest. I'm
Speaker 4: gonna use the national anthem to show my disgust for
Speaker 4: a certain element of what's happening in this country. Are
Speaker 4: folks telling Gabe Kapler to move? Is this the lead
Speaker 4: story on all the shows? Is this gonna be Are
Speaker 4: we gonna discuss whether or not Kapler is gonna be
Speaker 4: able to stay as a manager in baseball, maybe lose
Speaker 4: his job. Tony Larus has said a few things. It
Speaker 4: was mentioned a few times on the shows, and people
Speaker 4: moved on because it was never about the troops. It
Speaker 4: was never about the anthem. It was never about the
Speaker 4: military or patriotism or any of it. It was always
Speaker 4: about telling a rich black guy, shut up, you have
Speaker 4: it good enough. And the fact that Gabe Kapler is
Speaker 4: going to get to mostly skate on this, and by
Speaker 4: the way, I'm glad he does. There's nothing more American
Speaker 4: then nonviolent protests. And I totally under just like I
Speaker 4: understood why kapp was using the anthem, because the anthem
Speaker 4: has been politicized, and that whole pregame ritual has been politicized.
Speaker 4: To use it to make a statement, I get why
Speaker 4: Kapler's doing. But the way Kapler and Steve Kerr and
Speaker 4: Greg Popovich and all these guys can say and do
Speaker 4: almost whatever they want with whatever criticism there is, it
Speaker 4: is brief and it is cursory. And cap was you know,
Speaker 4: the reason NF, the reason NFL ratings were in the tank, allegedly,
Speaker 4: all of it. It was always as sham. It was
Speaker 4: always outrageous, and I'm glad that gave Kapler a as
Speaker 4: the courage to do what he's doing, but b that
Speaker 4: it's being revealed as the sham that it was Okay,
Speaker 4: that was a little one.
Speaker 3: That was great.
Speaker 4: Oh it was great, preachy preach.
Speaker 3: I love that.
Speaker 4: I appreciate that. Yeah, time timed out for a game.
Speaker 4: Two wrongs won, right, Danielle, what's first?
Speaker 3: Who's telling the truth? McDaniels, Mahomes or Shanahan.
Speaker 4: All right, So Josh McDaniels, he said Derek Carr didn't
Speaker 4: need a heads up about Colin Kaepernick getting a workout.
Speaker 4: Patrick Mahomes said, the Kansady wide receiver corps is exactly
Speaker 4: what you want. And Kyle Shanahan said, I expect Jimmy
Speaker 4: G to be traded. I actually think there all telling
Speaker 4: the truth. However, the one who was telling the most
Speaker 4: truth is Kyle Shanahan. Of course, Jimmy G is getting traded.
Speaker 4: There's no question about who that he's getting traded. They
Speaker 4: wanted to move off. They traded three first round picks
Speaker 4: for a quarterback. The idea that that was that it
Speaker 4: was up in the air if they were ever going
Speaker 4: to play the quarterback is just nonsense. So I absolutely
Speaker 4: believe Shanahan. I also believe Mahomes likes the wide receiver corps.
Speaker 4: Clearly there's an adjustment has to be made. No Tyreek kill,
Speaker 4: but I think the Chiefs are in a good position
Speaker 4: to do that, and I believe Josh McDaniels. Nobody thought
Speaker 4: they were bringing Colin Kaepernick, who hasn't played in five years,
Speaker 4: to be the starter. The question wasn't is better than
Speaker 4: Derek Carr? The question was can he be better than
Speaker 4: Jared stittall and so? And by the way, they had
Speaker 4: a quarterback last year as a backup, Marcus Mariota, who
Speaker 4: was mobile. They had goal line and short yardage packages
Speaker 4: for him. That's what they would be using for So
Speaker 4: I actually think all three of these guys are telling
Speaker 4: the truth. But the one who I know is on
Speaker 4: the truth Shanahan. He wants Tray Jimmy g just hasn't
Speaker 4: because he had that surgery that, by the way, underrated story.
Speaker 4: Seems like the Niners were caught off guard by that surgery.
Speaker 4: It's a little odd what happened there. All right, what's next?
Speaker 3: Daniel Who's right? Cuban haslim or worthy?
Speaker 4: All right? So Mark Cuban said the play in games
Speaker 4: are the cause of the playoff injuries. Of the condensed playoffs,
Speaker 4: Udonis Haslam says Draymond broke the code picking the Celtics,
Speaker 4: and James Worthy said all today's players do is lift
Speaker 4: practice threes, get tats in tweet. All right. I actually
Speaker 4: think they're all wrong. So the first one they were
Speaker 4: all right. This one, I think they're all wrong. Mark Cuban,
Speaker 4: I the idea. I understand that people didn't like the
Speaker 4: every other day conference finals, but we've been doing a
Speaker 4: schedule similar to that for some time. The answer is
Speaker 4: condensed the first round a bit from where it was
Speaker 4: and have a little more time come to the conference finals.
Speaker 4: But the playoff injuries, honestly, weren't that brutal this year.
Speaker 4: You had guys who get injured a lot at the
Speaker 4: end of the year, like Kyle Lowry showing up injured,
Speaker 4: Jimmy Butler. He's a guy that has shown the ability
Speaker 4: to be a triple plus but also wear down and
Speaker 4: then bounce back. So I don't agree with Cuban, Danis Haslam.
Speaker 4: Draymond listen. Draymond is media member and NBA player right now,
Speaker 4: so maybe he partially broke the NBA player code, but
Speaker 4: he stayed with podcast host TNT employee media member Code
Speaker 4: and James Worthy just sounds like I love big game James,
Speaker 4: but he sounds like such an old man yelling at
Speaker 4: a cloud. These kids with their hippity hop and their
Speaker 4: their tattoos, Like stop it, James, like just stop it.
Speaker 4: And by the way, lift and practice seems like a
Speaker 4: good thing to do for basketball players, says practice threes.
Speaker 4: I wish they were more fundamentally sound like back in
Speaker 4: my day. These teams don't have a where's the plastic
Speaker 4: man when you need him? All right? What's next?
Speaker 3: Best bet for Finals MVP? Tatum Curry for the field, Listen.
Speaker 4: I think the Warriors are going to win, and I
Speaker 4: would be shocked if Steph doesn't win it. The fact
Speaker 4: of the matter is this Durant deserved both the finals
Speaker 4: MVPs that he won with Golden State, but that first
Speaker 4: finals Lebron should have been Finals MVP. It was thirty six,
Speaker 4: thirteen and nine. We all know that. But they won't
Speaker 4: get finals MVP to a guy on the losing team
Speaker 4: if they weren't going to give it to Lebron. The
Speaker 4: fact that eleven people voted and seven voted Iguidala. Four
Speaker 4: voted Lebron and no one voted Curry. I didn't believe
Speaker 4: it at the time. I still don't believe it. The
Speaker 4: NBA slapped my hand for saying on TV what I
Speaker 4: had heard happened, which was Iguidala and Curry. Voters were
Speaker 4: split and they all ended up coalescing around Iguadala. But
Speaker 4: Steph Curry won league MVP that year, average more points
Speaker 4: per game in the finals than he in the regular season.
Speaker 4: Nobody believes that. Go look it up. His numbers in
Speaker 4: the finals were better as far as points, rebounds, assists
Speaker 4: then they were in the regular season, where he won
Speaker 4: regular season MVP. He didn't win league, he didn't win
Speaker 4: finals MVP. Instead, they gave a dig with all of
Speaker 4: for his defense. Again, Lebron averaged thirty six, thirteen and nine.
Speaker 4: So I say I all that to say this. The voters, oh,
Speaker 4: Steph one. So if I step is even close to
Speaker 4: MVP for this finals, if the Warriors win, he'll win it.
Speaker 4: All right, we're out of time, but we're gonna do
Speaker 4: this last one anyway.
Speaker 3: Go ahead, Danielle, watch one F one the match or
Speaker 3: top gun two.
Speaker 4: All right, So F one is European race car driving.
Speaker 4: I'm just curious how many because people have gotten super
Speaker 4: into it because a Netflix show. How mad would you
Speaker 4: be if I told you? Once the NBA Playoffs were over,
Speaker 4: then I have a new thing that I'm super into
Speaker 4: and I have to start watching four hour race car races.
Speaker 3: I say, okay, all right, I'm sorry to watch the
Speaker 3: f bombs. I'm sorry.
Speaker 4: That's okay. So you wouldn't I wouldn't be you wouldn't
Speaker 4: be a fan of that. The match is Tom Brady
Speaker 4: and Aaron Rodgers in golf versus Patrick Mahomes and Josh Allen.
Speaker 4: That's just Wednesday night that that'll probably watch it. But
Speaker 4: what I really want to discuss with you is Top
Speaker 4: Gun and Top Gun two because I found out when
Speaker 4: we talked about this last week that the producers, most
Speaker 4: notably Gabe, but also Matt. Because Matt looks like he
Speaker 4: went to the premiere with roughly thirty people because he
Speaker 4: posted it on social media, they are giant. Am I
Speaker 4: wrong about that? Or didn't you post that on social media?
Speaker 4: I think he did. I'm gonna double check that. Give
Speaker 4: me a thumbs up if it's true. Matt, So he
Speaker 4: did Okay, that's what I thought. They love Top Gun?
Speaker 4: They love it. Do you like the original Top Gun, Danielle?
Speaker 3: I think I think I watched little pieces of it,
Speaker 3: Like I think I watched it all when I was younger,
Speaker 3: and then as I got older, I watched like little
Speaker 3: parts of it. It sucks.
Speaker 4: Okay. So here's the thing. You know, I love Tom Cruise.
Speaker 3: I love Tom Cruise too.
Speaker 4: And I never understood the Top Gun thing. But here's
Speaker 4: what I said about now. Top Gun two is like
Speaker 4: ninety nine percent on Rotten Tomatoes, like ninety seven percent
Speaker 4: on audience Score. The reason I said I didn't like
Speaker 4: Top Gun is Gabe and Matt notwithstanding, is the people
Speaker 4: who seem to love Top Gun seem to be people
Speaker 4: I don't like. Does that is that? Does that?
Speaker 3: Yeah? I mean I think that's what people do.
Speaker 5: Like.
Speaker 3: If somebody that you don't like like something like, I'm
Speaker 3: probably no.
Speaker 4: But that's my experience and Gabe's Matt. So here's the
Speaker 4: here's the thing. Will you watch Top Gun one with
Speaker 4: me since we both haven't seen it in twenty five years,
Speaker 4: and then we'll go see Top Gun two and we'll
Speaker 4: report back because I feel like we have to watch
Speaker 4: the first one in order to understand the second one.
Speaker 3: I know some see you're telling me you want me
Speaker 3: back on the show, but just.
Speaker 4: For well, just for just for a Top Gun to review.
Speaker 4: Demonse's over there, choking. Uh, just for a Top Gun
Speaker 4: two review. Okay, okay, So we'll watch Top Gun together.
Speaker 4: Will you try not to fall asleep?
Speaker 3: I'll try not to fall asleep.
Speaker 4: We don't watch any shows together anymore because she just
Speaker 4: falls asleep eight.
Speaker 3: Minutes because you start watching a TV show at ten
Speaker 3: eleven o'clock at night after I've been up with you
Speaker 3: since five point thirty.
Speaker 4: Okay, you say all that, but if we start the
Speaker 4: show at eight o'clock, you still fall asleep.
Speaker 3: No, I wouldn't.
Speaker 4: Okay, I wouldn't.
Speaker 5: You don't.
Speaker 3: You don't know around me.
Speaker 4: Okay, all right, we don't need to all right now,
Speaker 4: we're getting a little personal business in here. We don't
Speaker 4: need to do all that. The NBA playoffs are almost over. Okay,
Speaker 4: So we're gonna watch Top Gun together. Then we're gonna
