I was accused of being meme. Yesterday, 4 00:00:13,400 --> 00:00:15,880 Speaker 1: Nate and Oklahoma called up and wanted to wish his 5 00:00:16,000 --> 00:00:19,880 Speaker 1: brother a happy birthday, and he used the show to 6 00:00:19,960 --> 00:00:21,480 Speaker 1: do it. And I said, why don't you just call 7 00:00:21,560 --> 00:00:26,680 Speaker 1: your brother? Why do you have to call me? Posted 8 00:00:26,680 --> 00:00:32,040 Speaker 1: on Facebook Nate, my brother turned seventy at the end 9 00:00:32,080 --> 00:00:34,640 Speaker 1: of the month. I'm not gonna call Nate and Oklahoma 10 00:00:34,800 --> 00:00:37,520 Speaker 1: to say just want to call you and say happy 11 00:00:37,560 --> 00:00:41,120 Speaker 1: birthday to my brother Mike. It was funny. Welcome to 12 00:00:41,120 --> 00:00:44,519 Speaker 1: the program already in progress. It's our two on this Thursday. 13 00:00:44,560 --> 00:00:47,400 Speaker 1: By the way, Golf this week the Honda Classic. You 14 00:00:47,440 --> 00:00:51,400 Speaker 1: can watch on Golf Channel and NBC full coverage on 15 00:00:51,720 --> 00:00:56,000 Speaker 1: all four days. Arizona Cardinals are becoming the destination for 16 00:00:56,160 --> 00:01:00,440 Speaker 1: the NFL Snowbirds. They're collecting thirty something stars to compliment 17 00:01:00,480 --> 00:01:04,240 Speaker 1: their twenty something quarterback Kyler Murray. Yesterday they signed thirty 18 00:01:04,240 --> 00:01:06,559 Speaker 1: two year old AJ Green, thirty six year old kicker 19 00:01:06,600 --> 00:01:09,560 Speaker 1: Matt Prater, and they've already signed the thirty one year 20 00:01:09,600 --> 00:01:13,520 Speaker 1: old defensive lineman J. J. Watt. Now there's an emphasis 21 00:01:13,560 --> 00:01:17,320 Speaker 1: on youth in the league. The old guy formula can work, 22 00:01:17,360 --> 00:01:20,120 Speaker 1: though we saw that with Tampa with Tom Brady and 23 00:01:20,240 --> 00:01:24,760 Speaker 1: Gronk they won a Super Bowl. Arizona is not quite there, 24 00:01:24,920 --> 00:01:28,360 Speaker 1: but Green joins twenty eight year old DeAndre Hopkins to 25 00:01:28,440 --> 00:01:32,280 Speaker 1: form a potentially explosive wide receiving corps. Then you have 26 00:01:32,319 --> 00:01:35,800 Speaker 1: the thirty seven year old free agent Larry Fitzgerald. There's 27 00:01:35,840 --> 00:01:38,560 Speaker 1: a good chance that Green will take his spot, but 28 00:01:38,640 --> 00:01:41,240 Speaker 1: it's an interesting roster and once again it shows you 29 00:01:41,280 --> 00:01:44,039 Speaker 1: what you can do when you have a quarterback on 30 00:01:44,120 --> 00:01:47,199 Speaker 1: his rookie deal. Murray is going to enter his third 31 00:01:47,240 --> 00:01:51,440 Speaker 1: season after everything the Cardinals have done, he'll be expected 32 00:01:51,480 --> 00:01:54,040 Speaker 1: to take that next big leap and then he's going 33 00:01:54,080 --> 00:01:57,440 Speaker 1: to get paid after that. So it's an exciting offseason. 34 00:01:58,080 --> 00:02:00,560 Speaker 1: But that just ramps up the prey. Sure to win 35 00:02:00,880 --> 00:02:04,720 Speaker 1: right now in the desert, and you know, Vegas is 36 00:02:04,720 --> 00:02:07,120 Speaker 1: starting to fall in love with Arizona a little bit too. 37 00:02:07,320 --> 00:02:09,600 Speaker 1: As far as odds to win the Super Bowl, now 38 00:02:09,919 --> 00:02:12,359 Speaker 1: you might go, okay, they went from fifty to one 39 00:02:12,400 --> 00:02:15,880 Speaker 1: to thirty to one, okay, But that doesn't mean they're 40 00:02:15,880 --> 00:02:18,919 Speaker 1: not going to improve once the regular season starts, once 41 00:02:18,960 --> 00:02:23,160 Speaker 1: they get everybody together. It's a solid start. Tough division, 42 00:02:23,639 --> 00:02:26,760 Speaker 1: but Arizona has done quite well. You start to look 43 00:02:26,760 --> 00:02:29,239 Speaker 1: at winners in free agency. We love to hand out 44 00:02:29,320 --> 00:02:34,040 Speaker 1: grades or who won and who lost. Cardinals, they lost Reddick, 45 00:02:34,360 --> 00:02:37,400 Speaker 1: who was a was their best passionate rusher last year. 46 00:02:37,440 --> 00:02:42,040 Speaker 1: He signed a one year deal. The Niners resigning Trent Williams. 47 00:02:42,320 --> 00:02:47,640 Speaker 1: That's great. That not really free agency. Patriots, they brought 48 00:02:47,680 --> 00:02:51,959 Speaker 1: in a lot of players. Chiefs got a couple of 49 00:02:51,960 --> 00:02:57,120 Speaker 1: alignment Kyle Long coming out of retirement, Joe Tuney. So 50 00:02:57,160 --> 00:03:02,520 Speaker 1: they did okay, right now, they're desperate for lineman. Kyle 51 00:03:02,560 --> 00:03:05,120 Speaker 1: Long comes out of retirement and he's a former Pro 52 00:03:05,160 --> 00:03:08,280 Speaker 1: Bowl lineman. But they need They needed to do something 53 00:03:08,320 --> 00:03:11,480 Speaker 1: on the offensive line. But free agency, when it comes 54 00:03:11,480 --> 00:03:14,840 Speaker 1: to giving grades, I'll give New England credit. You know, 55 00:03:14,960 --> 00:03:17,840 Speaker 1: they went after it this year. They normally don't. The 56 00:03:17,960 --> 00:03:22,200 Speaker 1: Niners resigning Trent Williams. Okay, they didn't do anything free 57 00:03:22,200 --> 00:03:24,760 Speaker 1: agency wise. I'm still trying to figure out what the 58 00:03:25,760 --> 00:03:29,079 Speaker 1: Raiders are doing. It feels like they're giving They used 59 00:03:29,120 --> 00:03:31,040 Speaker 1: to have a really good offensive line. You can make 60 00:03:31,040 --> 00:03:34,480 Speaker 1: a case the best offensive line in football. That's not 61 00:03:34,560 --> 00:03:38,240 Speaker 1: the case now unless they know something that these other 62 00:03:38,280 --> 00:03:41,720 Speaker 1: teams don't know. But they were giving up starters on 63 00:03:41,760 --> 00:03:46,360 Speaker 1: their offensive line, and that's the coveted position to me 64 00:03:46,800 --> 00:03:50,640 Speaker 1: wide receivers in free agency and also lineman in free agency, 65 00:03:51,840 --> 00:03:54,480 Speaker 1: and it feels like there's still a lot of receivers 66 00:03:54,480 --> 00:03:58,839 Speaker 1: out there. You know, Kenny Golladay is a prized acquisition 67 00:03:58,880 --> 00:04:01,800 Speaker 1: for somebody here. He's going to be expensive, but you know, 68 00:04:01,960 --> 00:04:05,680 Speaker 1: that's that'll be interesting to see because that's the kind 69 00:04:05,680 --> 00:04:09,400 Speaker 1: of addition that really takes your wide receiving cord to 70 00:04:09,440 --> 00:04:13,560 Speaker 1: another level. If you already have a decent receiving corps, 71 00:04:13,560 --> 00:04:16,640 Speaker 1: but to get him that would be a big addition. 72 00:04:17,000 --> 00:04:19,600 Speaker 1: Eight seven seven three d P show email address DP 73 00:04:19,680 --> 00:04:22,520 Speaker 1: at dan Patrick dot com, Twitter handle it dp show 74 00:04:23,279 --> 00:04:27,200 Speaker 1: Kyle van Noy The Patriot Way.

Plus TP Show store has a 92 00:05:23,040 --> 00:05:26,520 Speaker 1: bunch of new shirts available. We made news yesterday. At 93 00:05:26,520 --> 00:05:29,560 Speaker 1: this time, the source told me that this is what 94 00:05:29,600 --> 00:05:33,360 Speaker 1: the Chicago Bears offered to the Seattle Seahawks for Russell Wilson. 95 00:05:33,400 --> 00:05:37,320 Speaker 1: It was three ones, three and two players. And I 96 00:05:37,360 --> 00:05:40,360 Speaker 1: said at the time, and we were trying to speculate, 97 00:05:40,360 --> 00:05:42,640 Speaker 1: and it was a little dangerous because I said to Paulie, 98 00:05:42,680 --> 00:05:46,080 Speaker 1: let's not speculate here because I don't know if these 99 00:05:46,080 --> 00:05:49,360 Speaker 1: players were involved in the trade. You know a Kam 100 00:05:49,520 --> 00:05:54,400 Speaker 1: Hicks and Khalil Mack. I've since been told that they 101 00:05:54,440 --> 00:05:57,600 Speaker 1: were up for grabs if Seattle was interested in them. 102 00:05:57,640 --> 00:06:00,240 Speaker 1: That basically there was nobody on the roster who was 103 00:06:01,560 --> 00:06:05,599 Speaker 1: unprotected or protected I should say. And then I started 104 00:06:05,600 --> 00:06:08,839 Speaker 1: to wonder about this, if the Seahawks knew that the 105 00:06:08,920 --> 00:06:13,040 Speaker 1: Bears didn't have enough to offer them, and why are 106 00:06:13,080 --> 00:06:17,400 Speaker 1: you engaging with the Bears? Because I was told teams 107 00:06:17,440 --> 00:06:20,160 Speaker 1: were trying to make offers with the Seahawks, the Seahawks 108 00:06:20,200 --> 00:06:23,479 Speaker 1: weren't returning phone calls. And now you have the two 109 00:06:23,560 --> 00:06:27,560 Speaker 1: gms who meet in North Dakota. There there for a 110 00:06:27,600 --> 00:06:31,560 Speaker 1: pro day for Trey Lamps, the quarterback. They have a conversation, 111 00:06:31,600 --> 00:06:38,039 Speaker 1: according to Ian Rappaport, and the Bears present their offer. Well, Seattle, then, 112 00:06:38,480 --> 00:06:40,920 Speaker 1: from what I was told, Pete Carroll knicks the deal 113 00:06:41,400 --> 00:06:45,960 Speaker 1: that John Schneider the GM was open to it. And discussing, 114 00:06:46,360 --> 00:06:50,719 Speaker 1: Pete Carroll said, no, well, don't you know that going 115 00:06:50,880 --> 00:06:54,720 Speaker 1: in Chicago doesn't have a high draft pick. They don't 116 00:06:54,720 --> 00:06:58,320 Speaker 1: have a quarterback to exchange with you, So what is 117 00:06:58,360 --> 00:07:03,840 Speaker 1: it that you want? And you already know that I 118 00:07:03,920 --> 00:07:06,880 Speaker 1: know the market's been set here. I guess that teams 119 00:07:06,960 --> 00:07:09,200 Speaker 1: know that you got to give at least three ones, 120 00:07:09,680 --> 00:07:15,080 Speaker 1: two starters, and maybe another draft pick. Okay, but if 121 00:07:15,120 --> 00:07:17,920 Speaker 1: I go, if I go to a I want to 122 00:07:17,920 --> 00:07:22,160 Speaker 1: buy a house, I have my offer and then the 123 00:07:22,200 --> 00:07:26,920 Speaker 1: person who's selling it says no, and there's no counter. 124 00:07:27,800 --> 00:07:30,440 Speaker 1: I go, wait, wait, you're supposed to counter. That's how 125 00:07:30,440 --> 00:07:33,840 Speaker 1: it works here. What does it take to get your house? 126 00:07:34,920 --> 00:07:39,040 Speaker 1: But you didn't get that with Seattle. Apparently Seattle didn't 127 00:07:39,040 --> 00:07:43,200 Speaker 1: want to sell, certainly not to the Bears. That doesn't 128 00:07:43,200 --> 00:07:46,480 Speaker 1: mean it still can't happen from what I'm told, But 129 00:07:48,080 --> 00:07:50,480 Speaker 1: I don't know. Maybe it's a message to Russell Wilson. 130 00:07:50,520 --> 00:07:52,760 Speaker 1: You're not going anywhere. You may not like it here, 131 00:07:52,800 --> 00:07:55,920 Speaker 1: but hey, you signed the deal, you're under contract. This 132 00:07:56,160 --> 00:07:58,240 Speaker 1: is the way it goes, unless you want to expand 133 00:07:58,320 --> 00:08:02,880 Speaker 1: your trade request, roster the list of teams you would 134 00:08:02,880 --> 00:08:06,960 Speaker 1: go to. But the Bears are getting criticized because they 135 00:08:07,040 --> 00:08:10,080 Speaker 1: swung for the fences and they didn't get their guy. Okay, 136 00:08:10,120 --> 00:08:12,800 Speaker 1: they at least tried. Now, if you want to say, 137 00:08:12,960 --> 00:08:16,040 Speaker 1: should Ryan Pace still be the general manager the Bears, 138 00:08:16,120 --> 00:08:18,960 Speaker 1: then we could have a discussion because he has failed 139 00:08:19,080 --> 00:08:22,200 Speaker 1: miserably in trying to get a quarterback. Now, you go 140 00:08:22,280 --> 00:08:25,920 Speaker 1: all in in your last year there in Chicago unless 141 00:08:25,920 --> 00:08:28,600 Speaker 1: you get your quarterback and you try to get Russell 142 00:08:28,640 --> 00:08:32,520 Speaker 1: Wilson three first round picks. They're not high first round picks. 143 00:08:32,640 --> 00:08:38,240 Speaker 1: Khalil Mack, Kiem Hicks, really good defensive players. But okay, 144 00:08:38,400 --> 00:08:42,440 Speaker 1: I don't have a quarterback and Pete Carroll. The only 145 00:08:42,440 --> 00:08:45,680 Speaker 1: way this happens is am I getting a quarterback in return? 146 00:08:46,280 --> 00:08:48,160 Speaker 1: But why meet with the Bears if you're not going 147 00:08:48,240 --> 00:08:52,400 Speaker 1: to counter? Are you doing them a favor by saying, 148 00:08:52,720 --> 00:08:56,559 Speaker 1: all right, give me your best shot here? Your first 149 00:08:56,600 --> 00:09:00,920 Speaker 1: offer is not your best offer? But what else could 150 00:09:00,920 --> 00:09:05,040 Speaker 1: they have offered here? Where Seattle's going to go? We 151 00:09:05,120 --> 00:09:10,800 Speaker 1: cannot turn that down. But this feels like the GM 152 00:09:10,880 --> 00:09:13,080 Speaker 1: might be open to this, but the coach is not 153 00:09:13,200 --> 00:09:19,000 Speaker 1: open to this. In Seattle still Pete Carroll's team and 154 00:09:19,120 --> 00:09:22,640 Speaker 1: Pete Carroll. This is about Pete's legacy as well. But 155 00:09:23,240 --> 00:09:27,920 Speaker 1: Pete with Russ, Pete without Russ that's a completely different legacy. 156 00:09:28,200 --> 00:09:30,720 Speaker 1: And if you're going to make that move, what do 157 00:09:30,840 --> 00:09:36,760 Speaker 1: I have? How am I reloading here? But I I 158 00:09:36,880 --> 00:09:39,880 Speaker 1: felt bad that all of the criticism the Bears received 159 00:09:40,480 --> 00:09:43,440 Speaker 1: because of this, they did try. Now I can criticize them. 160 00:09:43,800 --> 00:09:46,840 Speaker 1: They traded up for Trubisky, they brought in Mike Glennon. 161 00:09:46,920 --> 00:09:48,839 Speaker 1: I mean, they've had them. It's been a mess. They 162 00:09:48,920 --> 00:09:53,440 Speaker 1: passed on Mahomes, they passed on Watson. Like I can 163 00:09:53,559 --> 00:09:59,640 Speaker 1: be critical of them. They're desperate, and I always go 164 00:09:59,679 --> 00:10:02,760 Speaker 1: back to Jimmy Johnson saying, give me a desperate team. 165 00:10:04,000 --> 00:10:06,120 Speaker 1: Let me talk to a desperate team. Well, if they 166 00:10:06,120 --> 00:10:08,520 Speaker 1: don't have what you want, it doesn't matter how desperate 167 00:10:08,520 --> 00:10:10,480 Speaker 1: they are, Like, who do you want on the Bears? 168 00:10:13,679 --> 00:10:17,560 Speaker 1: Nobody not if you're trading Russell Wilson to the Bears, 169 00:10:18,000 --> 00:10:19,839 Speaker 1: and it still comes down to if you're a russ 170 00:10:20,320 --> 00:10:23,480 Speaker 1: and let me imagine Russe would get there. Your two 171 00:10:23,520 --> 00:10:27,000 Speaker 1: best defensive players are in Seattle and you don't have 172 00:10:27,080 --> 00:10:31,559 Speaker 1: draft picks for the next three years. There's nothing attractive 173 00:10:31,600 --> 00:10:35,800 Speaker 1: about that. Your coach is gonna be fired, GM will 174 00:10:35,840 --> 00:10:42,160 Speaker 1: be fired, and you're gonna be there going hello anybody. Yeah. 175 00:10:42,960 --> 00:10:44,960 Speaker 1: It's also interesting that people are treating the Bears as 176 00:10:44,960 --> 00:10:48,160 Speaker 1: if they're the seventy six Buccaneers. They were eight and 177 00:10:48,200 --> 00:10:50,319 Speaker 1: eight last year and qualified for the playoffs. I know, 178 00:10:50,360 --> 00:10:52,880 Speaker 1: they barely qualified. In the past three years, they were 179 00:10:52,920 --> 00:10:54,600 Speaker 1: twelve and four eight and Ate and Ate and Nate 180 00:10:54,600 --> 00:10:57,440 Speaker 1: made the playoffs twice. If Andy Dalton is more of 181 00:10:57,440 --> 00:11:00,880 Speaker 1: a stable light upgrade at the quarterback position, this could 182 00:11:00,880 --> 00:11:03,480 Speaker 1: work out. Okay, it's not exciting, but it could work out. 183 00:11:03,600 --> 00:11:06,960 Speaker 1: And no one's even considering that as a possibility. Well, 184 00:11:07,000 --> 00:11:08,760 Speaker 1: I think they're doing what they need to do. They 185 00:11:08,760 --> 00:11:11,000 Speaker 1: didn't get who they wanted and you're not getting to 186 00:11:11,080 --> 00:11:15,400 Speaker 1: Shaun Watson. So you have Andy Dalton. All right, you 187 00:11:15,520 --> 00:11:19,000 Speaker 1: do what your best with what you have there and 188 00:11:19,120 --> 00:11:23,160 Speaker 1: try next year. But you don't have you don't have 189 00:11:23,320 --> 00:11:27,559 Speaker 1: enough to attract the sadle Seahawks attention right now. And 190 00:11:27,640 --> 00:11:30,280 Speaker 1: I still think that this comes down to if Russell 191 00:11:30,400 --> 00:11:35,000 Speaker 1: Wilson says, all right, I'll consider going to the Dolphins 192 00:11:35,800 --> 00:11:39,200 Speaker 1: or the Jets. You'll have a deal done this weekend, 193 00:11:39,760 --> 00:11:43,319 Speaker 1: because the Jets and Dolphins have already put an offer 194 00:11:43,360 --> 00:11:46,200 Speaker 1: on the table for us. I don't know what the 195 00:11:46,240 --> 00:11:49,120 Speaker 1: offer is, but if you give me time, maybe I 196 00:11:49,160 --> 00:11:53,640 Speaker 1: can find out. But I mean that happens right now, 197 00:11:54,920 --> 00:11:58,240 Speaker 1: because then I get the second pick overall, or I 198 00:11:58,280 --> 00:12:02,280 Speaker 1: get Sam Darnold, I get the third pick overall, or 199 00:12:02,320 --> 00:12:04,760 Speaker 1: I can get to a thrown in there as well, 200 00:12:05,600 --> 00:12:08,840 Speaker 1: or I can get both, and I got a young 201 00:12:08,960 --> 00:12:14,600 Speaker 1: quarterback under contract. That's what you want. If you said 202 00:12:14,600 --> 00:12:19,120 Speaker 1: to Seattle right now, you can have Zach Wilson and 203 00:12:19,720 --> 00:12:21,800 Speaker 1: you can have a couple of draft picks in there, 204 00:12:21,840 --> 00:12:26,600 Speaker 1: and maybe a defensive Quinnon Williams, a defensive starter. We'll 205 00:12:26,640 --> 00:12:32,920 Speaker 1: give you three first all told, including this year's second 206 00:12:32,920 --> 00:12:35,120 Speaker 1: pick overall, and we'll give you a starter on the 207 00:12:35,160 --> 00:12:40,600 Speaker 1: defensive line. Okay, Like, I got my quarterback on a 208 00:12:40,679 --> 00:12:44,600 Speaker 1: rookie contract, a defensive starter, and I got a couple 209 00:12:44,640 --> 00:12:46,640 Speaker 1: of draft picks with a team that probably is not 210 00:12:46,720 --> 00:12:49,720 Speaker 1: going to be great the next good the next two years, 211 00:12:50,080 --> 00:12:53,960 Speaker 1: the Dolphins. I get the third pick overall, and I 212 00:12:54,000 --> 00:12:56,679 Speaker 1: can take two a tongue of Ioloa, and I can 213 00:12:56,720 --> 00:13:00,960 Speaker 1: get maybe two other first round draft picks there. Okay, 214 00:13:02,000 --> 00:13:05,920 Speaker 1: if Ross doesn't want to be there now, you have 215 00:13:06,040 --> 00:13:08,200 Speaker 1: to do what's best for you. He's doing what's best 216 00:13:08,240 --> 00:13:10,560 Speaker 1: for him. You have to do what's best for you 217 00:13:10,600 --> 00:13:15,240 Speaker 1: as an organization, and that is, Hey, got a great 218 00:13:15,280 --> 00:13:18,160 Speaker 1: scrap book here, but we're moving on. Got got my 219 00:13:18,240 --> 00:13:22,920 Speaker 1: rookie contract. You know, rookie quarterback and got Davante Smith 220 00:13:24,480 --> 00:13:27,120 Speaker 1: or throw out whatever you think you're going to get. 221 00:13:27,200 --> 00:13:29,120 Speaker 1: The Jets have a couple of first round draft picks 222 00:13:29,160 --> 00:13:32,280 Speaker 1: like that to me makes the most sense. But Russa 223 00:13:32,280 --> 00:13:35,280 Speaker 1: doesn't want to go to Miami or the Jets. Yeahmi 224 00:13:35,360 --> 00:13:39,480 Speaker 1: club lifestyle wise, Miami seems like such a natural fit. 225 00:13:39,559 --> 00:13:42,080 Speaker 1: You know, there's a lot of celebrities down there. It's 226 00:13:42,120 --> 00:13:45,000 Speaker 1: warm where Chicago didn't the original list. We can say, 227 00:13:45,000 --> 00:13:46,600 Speaker 1: why are you want? I know his brother lives here. 228 00:13:46,640 --> 00:13:48,600 Speaker 1: It's a big deal, but it's a you know, it's 229 00:13:48,640 --> 00:13:51,640 Speaker 1: not a glamorous as Miami. I'll fly my brother down 230 00:13:51,679 --> 00:13:54,000 Speaker 1: to Miami. I don't need to go. Hey, I'm gonna 231 00:13:54,000 --> 00:13:55,760 Speaker 1: go where you're applying. I love my brothers. I don't 232 00:13:55,760 --> 00:13:57,559 Speaker 1: want to live in the same city with right and 233 00:13:57,600 --> 00:13:59,920 Speaker 1: a lot of pro athletes pick Miami. It's a very 234 00:14:00,080 --> 00:14:05,000 Speaker 1: it's a destination. Yeah, no income tax down there. Also, 235 00:14:05,000 --> 00:14:07,320 Speaker 1: it's a good young team, right or how good a 236 00:14:07,320 --> 00:14:09,800 Speaker 1: young team is it? They were ten and six last year. 237 00:14:09,840 --> 00:14:13,559 Speaker 1: It seems like upsot. I think the Dolphins, I would 238 00:14:13,600 --> 00:14:17,240 Speaker 1: think that infrastructure would be appealing to russ And it 239 00:14:17,280 --> 00:14:19,760 Speaker 1: feels like they know what they're doing. He gives them 240 00:14:19,800 --> 00:14:26,160 Speaker 1: star power, and even the Jets, well, but you have 241 00:14:26,200 --> 00:14:28,440 Speaker 1: to give up a lot to get him. If I'm 242 00:14:28,480 --> 00:14:31,880 Speaker 1: the Jets, I don't. I don't want Russell Wilson. If 243 00:14:31,920 --> 00:14:34,120 Speaker 1: I'm the Dolphins, am I sold on two a tongue 244 00:14:34,120 --> 00:14:36,960 Speaker 1: of ilah? And if I am, then I don't want 245 00:14:37,040 --> 00:14:39,400 Speaker 1: russ I don't. I don't want to give up all 246 00:14:39,440 --> 00:14:42,360 Speaker 1: of that. Not picks that are in the top five 247 00:14:42,840 --> 00:14:44,680 Speaker 1: don't want to do that. You want to give up 248 00:14:44,680 --> 00:14:48,400 Speaker 1: the twenty first pick for the next three drafts, absolutely, 249 00:14:49,120 --> 00:14:55,080 Speaker 1: But the third pick, second pick, that's where you find gold. 250 00:14:55,960 --> 00:14:59,880 Speaker 1: That's where you find your quarterback. And in this case Miami, 251 00:15:00,320 --> 00:15:02,560 Speaker 1: they're gonna get the Heisman Trophy winner if they want him, 252 00:15:03,040 --> 00:15:05,720 Speaker 1: and the Jets could get Zach Wilson and then you 253 00:15:05,720 --> 00:15:08,760 Speaker 1: could trade Sam Darnold, maybe get a high second round pick. 254 00:15:09,520 --> 00:15:12,320 Speaker 1: But the bear swung for the fences. I just don't 255 00:15:12,360 --> 00:15:17,680 Speaker 1: know if Seattle was really playing ball with them. And 256 00:15:17,760 --> 00:15:19,960 Speaker 1: that's what I don't understand, Like why do you take 257 00:15:20,040 --> 00:15:23,080 Speaker 1: the offer or why do you even ask for an 258 00:15:23,080 --> 00:15:25,520 Speaker 1: offer or be willing to listen to it. I don't 259 00:15:25,600 --> 00:15:30,000 Speaker 1: understand that unless it's just to set the market. Jim Jackson, 260 00:15:30,040 --> 00:15:33,800 Speaker 1: the former Great, he'll join us. He's taking part in 261 00:15:33,840 --> 00:15:37,200 Speaker 1: March Madness here with Turners Sports CBS, Peter Schreeger for 262 00:15:37,280 --> 00:15:41,520 Speaker 1: the NFL Network. There, NFL Insider will stop by as well. 263 00:15:41,560 --> 00:15:43,840 Speaker 1: Pull question Nick Club and what do you have for me? Okay, 264 00:15:44,000 --> 00:15:46,600 Speaker 1: this has completely stolen from Scott van Pelt, so you 265 00:15:46,600 --> 00:15:49,360 Speaker 1: have to decide if you're okay with that. Chances are 266 00:15:49,400 --> 00:15:51,280 Speaker 1: you stolen something from me, So don't worry that, okay. 267 00:15:51,280 --> 00:15:53,760 Speaker 1: He was talking on his show about this prop bet 268 00:15:53,840 --> 00:15:56,760 Speaker 1: you could get Gonzaga and Baylor to win it all 269 00:15:57,000 --> 00:15:59,840 Speaker 1: or the field, and it's pretty much fifty fifty odds 270 00:16:00,440 --> 00:16:02,520 Speaker 1: if we put that up as a pole, which which 271 00:16:02,520 --> 00:16:04,600 Speaker 1: would people vote for it? So you get GoGet Baylor 272 00:16:04,640 --> 00:16:09,640 Speaker 1: of the field. I'm good against Baylor and Gonzaga would 273 00:16:09,640 --> 00:16:14,000 Speaker 1: win probably. Actually, you know, I put it up our one. 274 00:16:14,040 --> 00:16:19,680 Speaker 1: It's fifty four percents of the field. It's really close. Okay, Well, 275 00:16:19,720 --> 00:16:23,280 Speaker 1: the number one seed overall doesn't win this tournament normally 276 00:16:23,760 --> 00:16:25,960 Speaker 1: Louisville and twenty thirteen the last team to do so. 277 00:16:27,160 --> 00:16:31,080 Speaker 1: I wonder though less travel it's all in the bubble, 278 00:16:31,560 --> 00:16:34,560 Speaker 1: Like who does that? Benefit. And I'll ask Jim Jackson that, 279 00:16:34,760 --> 00:16:37,720 Speaker 1: but they're all there. I mean you'll go to venues 280 00:16:37,800 --> 00:16:42,080 Speaker 1: that are, you know, within an hour's drive. But you 281 00:16:42,120 --> 00:16:45,400 Speaker 1: know this, it would have benefited Butler in Indiana if 282 00:16:45,400 --> 00:16:49,160 Speaker 1: they were in the bubble. I mean, it might really 283 00:16:49,200 --> 00:16:53,200 Speaker 1: benefit per Due. But that's that's about it. You know, 284 00:16:53,240 --> 00:16:57,440 Speaker 1: you don't have to travel. There's no regional bias anything 285 00:16:57,520 --> 00:17:00,520 Speaker 1: like that. It's just everybody's here and we're all playing here, 286 00:17:00,800 --> 00:17:03,800 Speaker 1: even though you're playing at different places. But Baylor and 287 00:17:03,840 --> 00:17:08,520 Speaker 1: Gonzaga or the field, I would take the field, But 288 00:17:09,280 --> 00:17:13,680 Speaker 1: you know, it's just the unpredictability with this Yeah club. 289 00:17:13,960 --> 00:17:15,119 Speaker 1: You know what he said. It has hit a lot 290 00:17:15,160 --> 00:17:17,040 Speaker 1: of people are jumping out of Illinois as a team 291 00:17:17,040 --> 00:17:19,840 Speaker 1: that belongs in that. So maybe they're the real disruptor 292 00:17:19,880 --> 00:17:24,080 Speaker 1: of that, but no, who knows. Paulie wants to tell 293 00:17:24,080 --> 00:17:30,439 Speaker 1: me about the Alni, but he's not allowed to me. 294 00:17:30,520 --> 00:17:35,480 Speaker 1: And Dron Williams. Yeah, remember when you had your Lou 295 00:17:35,520 --> 00:17:38,040 Speaker 1: Henson hair. Do you try to have the Lou do 296 00:17:38,240 --> 00:17:42,000 Speaker 1: the comb over?

Very 446 00:26:07,000 --> 00:26:08,760 Speaker 1: I'm what a loser I was? I was. I went 447 00:26:08,840 --> 00:26:11,719 Speaker 1: back to this house.

I said, okay, I got my 450 00:26:19,880 --> 00:26:22,560 Speaker 1: suit and tie on and I go back to this 451 00:26:22,720 --> 00:26:25,280 Speaker 1: off campus house. Was that before? Was that when you 452 00:26:25,280 --> 00:26:26,720 Speaker 1: first got the ESPN and you were doing a little 453 00:26:26,720 --> 00:26:29,959 Speaker 1: play by play? Yeah, well I had to do it 454 00:26:29,960 --> 00:26:32,679 Speaker 1: on my days off because I wasn't good enough that 455 00:26:32,720 --> 00:26:35,679 Speaker 1: they would actually build it into the schedule. They'd always 456 00:26:35,720 --> 00:26:38,360 Speaker 1: give me, you know, these games that maybe nobody really 457 00:26:38,400 --> 00:26:41,600 Speaker 1: wanted to go to. That's why I went to Southern Illinois. 458 00:26:42,119 --> 00:26:45,560 Speaker 1: I did do Butler and Wisconsin Green Bay. And not 459 00:26:45,680 --> 00:26:50,119 Speaker 1: Wisconsin Wisconsin Green Bay. You're the king of Directional school. 460 00:26:50,160 --> 00:26:52,440 Speaker 1: But yeah, but it was at Butler and I got 461 00:26:52,440 --> 00:26:56,960 Speaker 1: to do the game with George McGinnis, the former ABA Star, 462 00:26:57,160 --> 00:27:01,920 Speaker 1: Indiana Star, and I loved it. The game was great. 463 00:27:02,080 --> 00:27:04,359 Speaker 1: It was first time I met Tony Bennett and Tony 464 00:27:04,400 --> 00:27:07,480 Speaker 1: Bennett's father, and it was a lot of fun. And 465 00:27:07,960 --> 00:27:10,879 Speaker 1: to be able to go to hinkle Field House, it was. 466 00:27:11,480 --> 00:27:14,119 Speaker 1: That was one of my favorite favorite stops that I 467 00:27:14,160 --> 00:27:16,760 Speaker 1: had along the way. I didn't get Marquee games, and 468 00:27:16,880 --> 00:27:20,800 Speaker 1: rightfully so, but I did. I made the best of 469 00:27:20,840 --> 00:27:23,360 Speaker 1: what I had there Wisconsin Green Bay, and I think 470 00:27:23,400 --> 00:27:25,960 Speaker 1: Tony Bennett won it with a jumper at the buzzer. 471 00:27:26,040 --> 00:27:28,080 Speaker 1: Yeah point, I guess see you getting your assignment sheet. 472 00:27:28,280 --> 00:27:32,679 Speaker 1: University of Texas El Paso, not even that. The University 473 00:27:32,680 --> 00:27:37,040 Speaker 1: of North Carolina, Greensboro. No offense, but it's not that tark. Yeah, 474 00:27:37,200 --> 00:27:41,360 Speaker 1: that's okay. Yeah, yeah, you know you got to start somewhere. Yeah. McLevin, 475 00:27:41,800 --> 00:27:44,119 Speaker 1: by the way, been doing some Jim Jackson All Star research. 476 00:27:44,359 --> 00:27:47,080 Speaker 1: He got hurt after fifty one games. He dislocated his 477 00:27:47,119 --> 00:27:51,080 Speaker 1: ankle that year, so that's probably maybe what actually, you 478 00:27:51,119 --> 00:27:54,000 Speaker 1: know what the All Star Games mid season. But anyway, 479 00:27:54,080 --> 00:27:57,000 Speaker 1: they had an amazing team with Jamal Mashburn, Jim Jackson, 480 00:27:57,359 --> 00:28:01,200 Speaker 1: Jason Kidd, Roy Tarpley was but they never I don't 481 00:28:01,200 --> 00:28:03,760 Speaker 1: remember that team being a real contender. No, but they 482 00:28:03,800 --> 00:28:08,960 Speaker 1: had the Roy Tarpley drama because of substance abuse. Roy 483 00:28:09,000 --> 00:28:12,159 Speaker 1: Tarpley out of Michigan. He was really a talented player, 484 00:28:12,200 --> 00:28:15,439 Speaker 1: but they just they couldn't keep him in the uniform.

Yes, before we as much as I would 501 00:29:09,680 --> 00:29:12,760 Speaker 1: love to see this on either side before we consummate 502 00:29:12,840 --> 00:29:15,840 Speaker 1: this bet, I have the feelings missus O'Connor is gonna 503 00:29:15,840 --> 00:29:19,160 Speaker 1: have a big issue with this one. No, she understands content. Yeah, 504 00:29:19,200 --> 00:29:21,440 Speaker 1: I know, she's a radio person. She's an expert on content. 505 00:29:22,000 --> 00:29:23,680 Speaker 1: Does she know what her husband's gonna look like for 506 00:29:23,760 --> 00:29:27,160 Speaker 1: a couple of months? Well, okay, so I have to 507 00:29:27,200 --> 00:29:29,560 Speaker 1: grow my hair out and then comb it over. Right, 508 00:29:30,000 --> 00:29:33,040 Speaker 1: I would have to shave the top and then how 509 00:29:33,080 --> 00:29:38,160 Speaker 1: long do I wear the comb over for the rest 510 00:29:38,160 --> 00:29:42,200 Speaker 1: of the year? Here? What do you got to take 511 00:29:42,200 --> 00:29:44,120 Speaker 1: a good thing and make it? Oh? I don't, I 512 00:29:44,160 --> 00:29:46,680 Speaker 1: don't know. Get it a day or is it a 513 00:29:46,720 --> 00:29:49,640 Speaker 1: full week? I think a week? A week Okay, okay, 514 00:29:49,680 --> 00:29:51,640 Speaker 1: But how long would it take you to grow your 515 00:29:51,680 --> 00:29:54,760 Speaker 1: hair that you could do a comb over? And how 516 00:29:54,760 --> 00:29:58,480 Speaker 1: long would it take for Fritzie. Yeah again, I don't know. 517 00:29:58,520 --> 00:30:00,280 Speaker 1: Fritzie has a choice in this matter. I don't know 518 00:30:00,320 --> 00:30:02,600 Speaker 1: if he can grow his hair long. Yeah, you can. 519 00:30:03,000 --> 00:30:05,120 Speaker 1: You can grow it out, and then we have to 520 00:30:05,160 --> 00:30:07,680 Speaker 1: tame it. And one of us can, based on our 521 00:30:07,720 --> 00:30:11,200 Speaker 1: ages and our genetics. Can you can bounce back very 522 00:30:11,240 --> 00:30:15,239 Speaker 1: quickly from that hair situation. Unlike myself whenever I drew 523 00:30:15,280 --> 00:30:17,640 Speaker 1: to myself, I'm not gonna what do you mean bounce back? 524 00:30:17,680 --> 00:30:19,920 Speaker 1: You're like, it's not You're not You're just growing your 525 00:30:19,920 --> 00:30:21,520 Speaker 1: hair long for a little while and then you cut 526 00:30:21,520 --> 00:30:24,080 Speaker 1: it short again exactly the way it is. Can't get balder. 527 00:30:25,040 --> 00:30:26,520 Speaker 1: But I'm not gonna have the option if I really 528 00:30:26,520 --> 00:30:27,760 Speaker 1: hate the way it looks to put a hat on. 529 00:30:27,840 --> 00:30:31,240 Speaker 1: That's that's the it's a bet. As soon as you 530 00:30:31,360 --> 00:30:33,680 Speaker 1: leave the studio, you can put a hat on. Yeah, 531 00:30:34,040 --> 00:30:35,880 Speaker 1: which I'm gonna guess happens all the time. You can 532 00:30:35,920 --> 00:30:38,280 Speaker 1: wear a hat when you come in, and then you 533 00:30:38,480 --> 00:30:40,560 Speaker 1: for three hours, you take the hat off, and then 534 00:30:40,600 --> 00:30:44,480 Speaker 1: when you leave, you can put your hat on. I 535 00:30:44,520 --> 00:30:48,840 Speaker 1: don't have to. I know I'm being ah, I'm being 536 00:30:48,840 --> 00:30:52,040 Speaker 1: a spoil sports with that. That's a. That's a that's 537 00:30:52,040 --> 00:30:56,640 Speaker 1: a tough thing for me to agree to. Why because 538 00:30:56,640 --> 00:30:59,280 Speaker 1: I know how my hair grows on the sides when 539 00:30:59,400 --> 00:31:02,560 Speaker 1: I don't touch it, and it'll just be I don't know, 540 00:31:04,120 --> 00:31:06,640 Speaker 1: I'm going I'm being a total bad guy. I'm up 541 00:31:06,640 --> 00:31:08,760 Speaker 1: being a team player and being put on the spot 542 00:31:09,120 --> 00:31:11,640 Speaker 1: naching Weighty on TV and being to me, yeah, that's true. 543 00:31:12,960 --> 00:31:16,480 Speaker 1: Does anybody else want that bet with Seaton? Paulie? Are 544 00:31:16,480 --> 00:31:17,840 Speaker 1: you up for it? I'll take the bet with our 545 00:31:17,880 --> 00:31:20,040 Speaker 1: brackets if Fritzie still has to grow his hair out 546 00:31:20,080 --> 00:31:21,800 Speaker 1: for the loss, Like, I'll just put my bracket in there. 547 00:31:21,840 --> 00:31:27,120 Speaker 1: But I'll I'm just kidding. I just wantz what if 548 00:31:27,120 --> 00:31:30,640 Speaker 1: Fritzie can't cut his hair for as long as it 549 00:31:30,680 --> 00:31:33,800 Speaker 1: takes Seaton to grow out his lutu? Like? Is there 550 00:31:34,400 --> 00:31:39,040 Speaker 1: is there some way that we can salvage this bet? Like, 551 00:31:39,400 --> 00:31:41,240 Speaker 1: I don't think we have to decide anything right now. 552 00:31:41,280 --> 00:31:43,000 Speaker 1: I'm just saying I'm putting it out there that I 553 00:31:43,000 --> 00:31:45,440 Speaker 1: would be willing to have a bet with Todd and 554 00:31:45,480 --> 00:31:50,440 Speaker 1: that I'll give myself a bald comb over. I'll shave 555 00:31:50,480 --> 00:31:54,720 Speaker 1: the top of my head in that ring, yeah, that horseshoe, yes, 556 00:31:55,080 --> 00:32:01,720 Speaker 1: and then I'll have hair longer and comb it over. Todd, 557 00:32:02,160 --> 00:32:04,479 Speaker 1: you always do well in the Brackett challenge. What are 558 00:32:04,480 --> 00:32:06,520 Speaker 1: you worried about? I do? But this could be one 559 00:32:06,520 --> 00:32:08,160 Speaker 1: of those strangers of all the years. This will be 560 00:32:08,160 --> 00:32:10,360 Speaker 1: the stranger year that going chalk is like the worst 561 00:32:10,360 --> 00:32:12,400 Speaker 1: thing you could have done. I'll give it some thought. 562 00:32:12,400 --> 00:32:15,160 Speaker 1: I'm not gonna say, where's Jimmy Jackson? Okay, if you 563 00:32:15,200 --> 00:32:17,360 Speaker 1: don't want to do the hairdo thing, that's a great 564 00:32:17,440 --> 00:32:20,800 Speaker 1: question I'm getting. If jim Jackson doesn't call in the 565 00:32:20,840 --> 00:32:23,640 Speaker 1: next thirty minutes, then you have to do the contest 566 00:32:23,680 --> 00:32:26,320 Speaker 1: with Seaton. I don't have a choice in the man. No, 567 00:32:26,440 --> 00:32:30,480 Speaker 1: you don't, not with that because you're just goofing around here. 568 00:32:31,440 --> 00:32:35,200 Speaker 1: I'm goofing around because the guest isn't being responsible.

I saw where 600 00:34:22,760 --> 00:34:25,960 Speaker 1: Steph Curry landed on his tailbone last night, and if 601 00:34:25,960 --> 00:34:29,759 Speaker 1: you've ever done that on a basketball court, it kind 602 00:34:29,760 --> 00:34:32,120 Speaker 1: of hits you. And then it hits you really hard. 603 00:34:32,480 --> 00:34:33,960 Speaker 1: You know, when you get ready to get up and 604 00:34:34,000 --> 00:34:37,359 Speaker 1: you go, oh, letter and then you try again. All 605 00:34:37,520 --> 00:34:42,239 Speaker 1: that really hurts. And Steph had to limp off last night. 606 00:34:43,160 --> 00:34:45,520 Speaker 1: I know that we do this well. I try to 607 00:34:45,560 --> 00:34:48,520 Speaker 1: avoid this, but I know in our business, my business 608 00:34:48,560 --> 00:34:51,479 Speaker 1: that you know, we love to get out in front 609 00:34:51,520 --> 00:34:55,359 Speaker 1: of MVP talk, love to do that NFL week to week, 610 00:34:55,400 --> 00:34:58,160 Speaker 1: who's the MVP, Who's the MVP? And we start earlier 611 00:34:58,239 --> 00:35:03,000 Speaker 1: and earlier. It feels like every year and we did 612 00:35:03,040 --> 00:35:05,480 Speaker 1: that in the NFL, who's your MVP? You know, I 613 00:35:05,520 --> 00:35:09,080 Speaker 1: had Russell Wilson MVP last year. Look pretty good. For 614 00:35:09,200 --> 00:35:11,440 Speaker 1: eight or nine weeks, and then all of a sudden 615 00:35:11,680 --> 00:35:15,000 Speaker 1: they didn't let Russ cook anymore. Now you have the 616 00:35:15,120 --> 00:35:19,840 Speaker 1: NBA of who's the MVP Joe l Embiid. Joel Embiid 617 00:35:20,120 --> 00:35:23,279 Speaker 1: is out for a couple of weeks, so now he's 618 00:35:23,320 --> 00:35:26,960 Speaker 1: down the list the joker. Hey, those are great numbers, 619 00:35:27,040 --> 00:35:30,920 Speaker 1: but does anybody really care? Luca was never winning the 620 00:35:31,000 --> 00:35:33,640 Speaker 1: MVP because the MAVs aren't good enough, but people had 621 00:35:33,719 --> 00:35:36,960 Speaker 1: him as the favorite. Kawhi Leonard's not in the conversation. 622 00:35:37,680 --> 00:35:41,560 Speaker 1: You have Lebron who was in the conversation and then 623 00:35:41,640 --> 00:35:44,120 Speaker 1: a d went out and then he apparently dropped out 624 00:35:44,120 --> 00:35:48,239 Speaker 1: of the conversation, and now apparently he's back in. Kevin 625 00:35:48,320 --> 00:35:52,160 Speaker 1: Durant was in. Now he's not playing, so he's not 626 00:35:52,360 --> 00:35:54,319 Speaker 1: up there. Steph Curry I thought was going to be 627 00:35:54,360 --> 00:35:56,680 Speaker 1: the MVP at the start of the season, and he 628 00:35:57,600 --> 00:36:00,439 Speaker 1: might still be, but I don't think he will being. 629 00:36:01,280 --> 00:36:04,640 Speaker 1: And then you have James Harden my leading leaving out 630 00:36:04,640 --> 00:36:07,359 Speaker 1: anybody else. Mccleman, I don't think he said, Yannis, Oh yeah, 631 00:36:07,360 --> 00:36:12,000 Speaker 1: it's right, Yannis. He's not gonna three peat, right because yeah, 632 00:36:12,000 --> 00:36:14,719 Speaker 1: because he's already got a twice back to back. I mean, 633 00:36:14,760 --> 00:36:17,280 Speaker 1: but you know, would he be in the conversation otherwise, 634 00:36:17,400 --> 00:36:22,280 Speaker 1: sure he should be, absolutely, but it's now it feels 635 00:36:22,280 --> 00:36:25,640 Speaker 1: like James Harden is the conversation. And my point is, 636 00:36:25,719 --> 00:36:29,439 Speaker 1: I don't vote on this anymore, but if I did vote, 637 00:36:29,440 --> 00:36:32,560 Speaker 1: I would not vote James Harden from VP because as 638 00:36:32,640 --> 00:36:34,520 Speaker 1: much credit as I want to give him for what 639 00:36:34,520 --> 00:36:36,480 Speaker 1: he's done with the Nets, I also have to give 640 00:36:36,560 --> 00:36:38,880 Speaker 1: him criticism for what he did with the Houston Rockets 641 00:36:38,920 --> 00:36:42,160 Speaker 1: in the same season. I don't think you can be 642 00:36:42,640 --> 00:36:44,879 Speaker 1: one of the least valuable players with what you did 643 00:36:44,920 --> 00:36:47,520 Speaker 1: to a franchise and then the most valuable player in 644 00:36:47,560 --> 00:36:50,480 Speaker 1: the league in the same year. And as great as 645 00:36:50,560 --> 00:36:53,120 Speaker 1: James is, you know where I stand on it. I 646 00:36:53,200 --> 00:36:57,120 Speaker 1: find him fascinating. One of the few players that I 647 00:36:57,239 --> 00:36:59,200 Speaker 1: seek out. If I know he's playing in a game, 648 00:36:59,239 --> 00:37:02,439 Speaker 1: I would watch that game. And I find him as 649 00:37:02,480 --> 00:37:06,560 Speaker 1: fascinating an offensive weapon as we've seen in the last 650 00:37:06,600 --> 00:37:10,400 Speaker 1: thirty years in my opinion, But I can't give him MVP. 651 00:37:10,520 --> 00:37:14,560 Speaker 1: Plus when Durant comes back now all of a sudden, 652 00:37:15,000 --> 00:37:17,080 Speaker 1: like Harden will be the second best player on his 653 00:37:17,120 --> 00:37:21,799 Speaker 1: own team. And you know, Durant is going to get 654 00:37:21,880 --> 00:37:25,800 Speaker 1: his touches Kyrie. And then you have James Harden. And 655 00:37:26,239 --> 00:37:30,400 Speaker 1: Harden has given credit for kind of reinventing himself. And 656 00:37:30,480 --> 00:37:33,279 Speaker 1: to that, I say, well, if you know it's not 657 00:37:33,320 --> 00:37:35,800 Speaker 1: going to continue to work for all those years in Houston, 658 00:37:36,120 --> 00:37:39,120 Speaker 1: don't you have to try something different. If he didn't 659 00:37:39,480 --> 00:37:43,000 Speaker 1: try to reinvent his game, then I'd have real concerns 660 00:37:43,320 --> 00:37:47,759 Speaker 1: with James Harden. But he has reinvented himself. But he 661 00:37:47,840 --> 00:37:52,160 Speaker 1: needed to because what he did in Houston, they were 662 00:37:52,480 --> 00:37:56,399 Speaker 1: a curiosity but never a real factor. Close to being 663 00:37:56,440 --> 00:38:01,000 Speaker 1: a factor, but he never came up big in the postseason. Yeah, poet, 664 00:38:01,200 --> 00:38:04,480 Speaker 1: how about we throw Damian Lillard an MVP thirty points, 665 00:38:04,520 --> 00:38:08,960 Speaker 1: eight rebounds, are eight assists, four rebounds. Absolutely, you know, 666 00:38:09,400 --> 00:38:11,320 Speaker 1: give it. It's almost like coming of a career achievement. 667 00:38:11,400 --> 00:38:14,400 Speaker 1: That franchise. They're twenty three and sixteen, They're definitely going 668 00:38:14,400 --> 00:38:15,839 Speaker 1: to the playoffs like they always do. I know he's 669 00:38:15,880 --> 00:38:20,399 Speaker 1: not a one seed, but think about that franchise without him. Hey, 670 00:38:20,400 --> 00:38:22,040 Speaker 1: I'm right there with you. Yeah, I mean, you're the 671 00:38:22,040 --> 00:38:24,040 Speaker 1: biggest fan. Put him, put him in there and love him. 672 00:38:24,920 --> 00:38:27,080 Speaker 1: I said, if they're games on the line. I want 673 00:38:27,160 --> 00:38:33,239 Speaker 1: him shooting. I do, but but it's he's one of 674 00:38:33,239 --> 00:38:36,239 Speaker 1: those candidates where you go, oh, yeah, that's right. He's 675 00:38:36,320 --> 00:38:38,520 Speaker 1: never one of those guys where you mentioned I didn't 676 00:38:39,480 --> 00:38:42,080 Speaker 1: I didn't even do it. I felt victim to what 677 00:38:42,120 --> 00:38:48,520 Speaker 1: I'm criticizing here. We take Dame Lillard for granted. If 678 00:38:48,600 --> 00:38:54,880 Speaker 1: he played elsewhere, it would be different because you know 679 00:38:55,360 --> 00:39:00,600 Speaker 1: the media deals with you know, hey, what's convenient for him? 680 00:39:00,760 --> 00:39:03,879 Speaker 1: Not everybody, but it's hey, I get to watch that game, 681 00:39:04,000 --> 00:39:06,280 Speaker 1: watch that player. Oh I gotta stay up to watch 682 00:39:06,360 --> 00:39:11,240 Speaker 1: that player. And it's easy to watch Joe l Embiid 683 00:39:11,400 --> 00:39:17,000 Speaker 1: or the Greek Freak, or Luca or Lebron. Damian Lillard 684 00:39:17,360 --> 00:39:19,000 Speaker 1: got to go out of your way a little bit there. 685 00:39:19,520 --> 00:39:23,839 Speaker 1: But he's he'll be one of those players that when 686 00:39:23,840 --> 00:39:25,960 Speaker 1: he's done, we'll look back and say he was one 687 00:39:25,960 --> 00:39:29,279 Speaker 1: of the most underrated players in the history of the NBA. 688 00:39:29,560 --> 00:39:34,320 Speaker 1: I truly believe it. Yeah, mcclub just like it around. 689 00:39:34,320 --> 00:39:36,880 Speaker 1: Another dark horse guy people are bringing up now is 690 00:39:36,960 --> 00:39:39,440 Speaker 1: Jimmy Butler with the heat just because the heat on fire. 691 00:39:40,080 --> 00:39:41,680 Speaker 1: But I don't think I've looked at his number. He's 692 00:39:41,719 --> 00:39:45,959 Speaker 1: only averaging about twenty two points a game. Yeah, where 693 00:39:46,080 --> 00:39:48,160 Speaker 1: was it at the beginning of the year, because they 694 00:39:48,160 --> 00:39:50,040 Speaker 1: were terrible at the beginning of the year. But yeah, 695 00:39:50,040 --> 00:39:53,279 Speaker 1: they're storming up the standings. Though again, we like to 696 00:39:53,320 --> 00:39:56,440 Speaker 1: include more so we have more to talk about, Like 697 00:39:56,520 --> 00:39:59,440 Speaker 1: you don't want a foregone conclusion where you go, yeah, 698 00:39:59,520 --> 00:40:03,200 Speaker 1: it's that guy, that's it. Where's like the Greek Freak 699 00:40:04,000 --> 00:40:07,040 Speaker 1: he had the numbers last year. I fought Lebron who 700 00:40:07,080 --> 00:40:14,120 Speaker 1: reinvented himself. Lebron was the most valuable player and this 701 00:40:14,200 --> 00:40:16,840 Speaker 1: doesn't have anything to do with the postseason. Greek Freak 702 00:40:17,000 --> 00:40:20,960 Speaker 1: was great during the regular season. But that's where it's 703 00:40:21,040 --> 00:40:24,400 Speaker 1: kind of a tricky award because I didn't think the 704 00:40:24,400 --> 00:40:26,960 Speaker 1: Bucks were going to win the championship at any point 705 00:40:27,040 --> 00:40:30,920 Speaker 1: last year, whereas the Lakers, I thought that they were 706 00:40:30,920 --> 00:40:35,160 Speaker 1: going to win the championship. That's value plus we've always 707 00:40:35,400 --> 00:40:38,279 Speaker 1: you know, it feels like we changed the rules with 708 00:40:38,400 --> 00:40:42,680 Speaker 1: Lebron that membery didn't play any defense. Remember a few 709 00:40:42,760 --> 00:40:46,200 Speaker 1: years where he did and he didn't play defense. But 710 00:40:46,239 --> 00:40:47,520 Speaker 1: then all of a sudden we were like, yeah, but 711 00:40:47,600 --> 00:40:53,399 Speaker 1: Lebron doesn't play defense. Okay, but look at the Lakers. There, 712 00:40:53,480 --> 00:40:55,640 Speaker 1: Lakers a number one defensive team in the NBA, I 713 00:40:55,680 --> 00:41:00,800 Speaker 1: think right now by far. But in A's not playing, 714 00:41:01,040 --> 00:41:04,560 Speaker 1: does Lebron get any credit for that? And he answers no. 715 00:41:05,560 --> 00:41:07,719 Speaker 1: So it's all we're trying to do is come up 716 00:41:07,760 --> 00:41:11,080 Speaker 1: with different reasons as to why somebody should get it 717 00:41:11,200 --> 00:41:14,480 Speaker 1: or somebody shouldn't get it. I think the Joker's fascinating 718 00:41:14,719 --> 00:41:20,560 Speaker 1: watching him every single night. Those numbers are incredible. Luca 719 00:41:20,640 --> 00:41:24,960 Speaker 1: had a big night last night. Joe l Embiid before 720 00:41:24,960 --> 00:41:28,279 Speaker 1: he got injured, was the MVP in my opinion, But 721 00:41:28,440 --> 00:41:31,600 Speaker 1: now the door's open for James Harden. Maybe Lebron comes 722 00:41:31,640 --> 00:41:35,040 Speaker 1: back in if you even care about this, because a 723 00:41:35,080 --> 00:41:37,640 Speaker 1: lot of this is just, hey, we need to fill 724 00:41:37,800 --> 00:41:41,800 Speaker 1: ten minutes, fifteen minutes a segment. I have a guest 725 00:41:41,880 --> 00:41:45,200 Speaker 1: on now that that's what it comes down to, because 726 00:41:45,239 --> 00:41:48,200 Speaker 1: I don't you know, we're trying to handicap this in March. 727 00:41:49,280 --> 00:41:52,319 Speaker 1: Figure out who's the MVP, all right, you want it 728 00:41:52,320 --> 00:41:54,919 Speaker 1: to be James Harden. Great, James Harden. Like I don't 729 00:41:55,520 --> 00:41:58,880 Speaker 1: let mean, I don't get into a you know, a 730 00:41:58,920 --> 00:42:02,680 Speaker 1: real knockdown for take drag out here with Max and 731 00:42:02,719 --> 00:42:06,160 Speaker 1: Stephen a like I It's just not something that's that 732 00:42:06,280 --> 00:42:09,319 Speaker 1: important to me. But I will say for anybody who 733 00:42:09,320 --> 00:42:12,040 Speaker 1: thinks that James Harden's the MVP, you also have to 734 00:42:12,080 --> 00:42:14,800 Speaker 1: factor in what he did in Houston in the same season, 735 00:42:15,480 --> 00:42:20,839 Speaker 1: because he helped dismantle a franchise and that franchise has 736 00:42:20,880 --> 00:42:25,279 Speaker 1: lost what eighteen games in a row? They lost, They've 737 00:42:25,280 --> 00:42:29,000 Speaker 1: lost eighteen and they just gave up PJ. Tucker. He's 738 00:42:29,040 --> 00:42:31,960 Speaker 1: now with the Bucks. They're going for the record. They're 739 00:42:32,000 --> 00:42:35,000 Speaker 1: not even as bad as Minnesota. I imagine if you go, 740 00:42:35,560 --> 00:42:41,640 Speaker 1: we lost eighteen in row, but we're not Minnesota, what 741 00:42:41,680 --> 00:42:44,120 Speaker 1: are you smiling about? Todd? Do you find Jim Jackson 742 00:42:44,160 --> 00:42:48,960 Speaker 1: for me? Okay, but we have to move on. No, 743 00:42:49,160 --> 00:42:52,360 Speaker 1: we don't.
