Let's get 15 00:00:51,720 --> 00:00:55,160 Speaker 1: into it. The New York Knicks completed one of the 16 00:00:55,200 --> 00:00:58,840 Speaker 1: most dominant playoff runs in NBA history, with the title, 17 00:00:58,920 --> 00:01:02,960 Speaker 1: clinching to ninety win over the Spurs in Game five 18 00:01:03,000 --> 00:01:06,920 Speaker 1: of the Finals on Saturday night, and Jalen Brunson carried 19 00:01:06,959 --> 00:01:10,640 Speaker 1: the Knicks with a historic performance. He becomes one of 20 00:01:10,680 --> 00:01:16,759 Speaker 1: four players, joining Michael Jordan Jannis and Bob Pettitt. Bob 21 00:01:16,800 --> 00:01:19,440 Speaker 1: Pettitt back in Our Lives to score at least forty 22 00:01:19,440 --> 00:01:23,280 Speaker 1: five points in a closeout game in the NBA Finals. 23 00:01:23,319 --> 00:01:26,959 Speaker 1: He was the unanimous choice among the eleven voters for 24 00:01:27,080 --> 00:01:30,800 Speaker 1: Finals MVP, and that graphic right there, if you're on 25 00:01:30,840 --> 00:01:34,440 Speaker 1: YouTube with us from ABC, sort of sums up Game 26 00:01:34,480 --> 00:01:38,200 Speaker 1: five perfectly. Jalen Brunson forty five points, rest of the 27 00:01:38,280 --> 00:01:42,320 Speaker 1: team forty nine because this guy was special. On a 28 00:01:42,400 --> 00:01:45,320 Speaker 1: night when everyone was sort of struggling to score, Brunson 29 00:01:45,600 --> 00:01:48,320 Speaker 1: carried the offense tass. I mean, what a performance. 30 00:01:48,960 --> 00:01:49,440 Speaker 2: What to show? 31 00:01:49,480 --> 00:01:53,200 Speaker 3: Glad it finished this way for Brunson because through the 32 00:01:53,240 --> 00:01:56,360 Speaker 3: first four games of this series, the most memorable moment 33 00:01:56,400 --> 00:01:59,520 Speaker 3: was going to be OG's tip. Brunson to finish it 34 00:01:59,560 --> 00:02:01,320 Speaker 3: off this way, it was spectacular. 35 00:02:01,600 --> 00:02:02,320 Speaker 1: Obviously. 36 00:02:02,480 --> 00:02:04,720 Speaker 3: I love that one where he went by wemy in 37 00:02:04,800 --> 00:02:07,960 Speaker 3: the fourth quarter and he just gave him that little 38 00:02:08,080 --> 00:02:10,960 Speaker 3: that little shake enough to get space at the rim 39 00:02:11,080 --> 00:02:13,679 Speaker 3: was spectacular. To finish it with forty five. We will 40 00:02:13,680 --> 00:02:17,120 Speaker 3: remember the Og tip. We will remember this play or 41 00:02:17,160 --> 00:02:20,760 Speaker 3: this game as well. I kind of blame Luke Cornett 42 00:02:20,840 --> 00:02:23,200 Speaker 3: if I'm the San Antonio Spurs. I know it sounds weird, 43 00:02:23,280 --> 00:02:27,320 Speaker 3: but but Brunson was not cooking in the second quarter 44 00:02:27,400 --> 00:02:30,840 Speaker 3: quite yet. He had only eight points at that point. 45 00:02:30,840 --> 00:02:31,200 Speaker 2: Midway. 46 00:02:31,320 --> 00:02:32,720 Speaker 1: It was a lot of though. 47 00:02:33,040 --> 00:02:33,720 Speaker 2: Yeah, eight. 48 00:02:35,680 --> 00:02:36,480 Speaker 1: In the first quarter. 49 00:02:37,600 --> 00:02:39,840 Speaker 3: Yeah, the Knicks were just struggling big time. And then 50 00:02:39,919 --> 00:02:44,520 Speaker 3: midway through the second quarter, when Brenson was doing fine, 51 00:02:44,600 --> 00:02:47,560 Speaker 3: Luke Cornett literally just dropped the ball out of bounds 52 00:02:47,560 --> 00:02:49,920 Speaker 3: and then they had to yank his ass. He had 53 00:02:49,960 --> 00:02:52,720 Speaker 3: a bad game. He just couldn't handled it, couldn't handle 54 00:02:52,880 --> 00:02:56,360 Speaker 3: the ball at all. Brunson, after another offensive rebound by 55 00:02:56,360 --> 00:02:59,960 Speaker 3: the Knicks, had his easiest set shot of the game 56 00:03:00,080 --> 00:03:02,440 Speaker 3: from three point land and that's when he got hot, 57 00:03:02,520 --> 00:03:05,919 Speaker 3: hitting that three, and then he took it to Dearon 58 00:03:05,960 --> 00:03:08,359 Speaker 3: Fox the next play. Then he got double teamed when 59 00:03:08,440 --> 00:03:11,119 Speaker 3: Kelvin Johnson didn't really get his hand up, hit another one. 60 00:03:11,160 --> 00:03:13,959 Speaker 3: Then he took Daron Fox on another one on one, 61 00:03:14,720 --> 00:03:16,760 Speaker 3: and that's when they had to say, all right, Stefan 62 00:03:16,800 --> 00:03:19,320 Speaker 3: cast will get on back in. So he got cooking 63 00:03:19,400 --> 00:03:22,920 Speaker 3: there in the second quarter. Either way, it wasn't about brunt, 64 00:03:22,960 --> 00:03:25,880 Speaker 3: it wasn't about Luke Cornett. It was about this dude, 65 00:03:25,919 --> 00:03:28,880 Speaker 3: who is this team. I'm just glad that the storyline 66 00:03:29,000 --> 00:03:32,080 Speaker 3: isn't just about Og. When we remember the series, it'll 67 00:03:32,120 --> 00:03:36,640 Speaker 3: be both that and Jalen Bronson obviously carrying this team. 68 00:03:36,680 --> 00:03:38,240 Speaker 1: That's where it was, similar to Game four. I know 69 00:03:38,320 --> 00:03:41,160 Speaker 1: will Game four will be remembered because of the Og tippin' 70 00:03:41,280 --> 00:03:43,600 Speaker 1: and that incredible play in the comeback. But they only 71 00:03:43,640 --> 00:03:46,200 Speaker 1: came back because Brunson carried them. We talked about it. 72 00:03:46,200 --> 00:03:47,880 Speaker 1: In the first half, he just would never let go 73 00:03:47,880 --> 00:03:50,360 Speaker 1: of the rope. Similar here, similar in Game five. And 74 00:03:50,400 --> 00:03:52,240 Speaker 1: then he just got better in the second half with 75 00:03:52,280 --> 00:03:54,120 Speaker 1: twenty nine points, fifteen in the fourth quarter, and he 76 00:03:54,160 --> 00:03:56,200 Speaker 1: had that one stretch where he just like he scored 77 00:03:56,200 --> 00:03:57,440 Speaker 1: fifteen or sixteen straight points. 78 00:03:57,480 --> 00:04:00,200 Speaker 4: He outscored the Spurs fifteen to seven down the stretch. 79 00:04:00,320 --> 00:04:02,160 Speaker 4: He had twenty nine in the second half. That's the 80 00:04:02,160 --> 00:04:05,200 Speaker 4: most of anybody in the entire game. Nobody else even 81 00:04:05,200 --> 00:04:09,280 Speaker 4: got over twenty. He dominated this game. Just a legendary performance. 82 00:04:09,520 --> 00:04:13,000 Speaker 4: Pretty awesome response to any Finals MVP chatter, because through 83 00:04:13,040 --> 00:04:15,200 Speaker 4: the first two games, it was is it Brunson or Towns, 84 00:04:15,640 --> 00:04:18,840 Speaker 4: Then it was is it Brunson or Og, and turns out. 85 00:04:18,920 --> 00:04:21,800 Speaker 4: It was Brunson the entire time, and that's why he 86 00:04:21,839 --> 00:04:24,800 Speaker 4: was the unanimous MVP and just to be able to 87 00:04:24,839 --> 00:04:27,000 Speaker 4: do it he did. Only Michael Jordan has scored forty 88 00:04:27,000 --> 00:04:28,960 Speaker 4: five or more in a closeout game on the road. Now, look, 89 00:04:29,000 --> 00:04:31,320 Speaker 4: that's a lot of qualifiers, but still there's been a 90 00:04:31,320 --> 00:04:33,719 Speaker 4: lot of NBA Finals games, And it's kind of weird 91 00:04:33,720 --> 00:04:36,599 Speaker 4: because like when we go think back on this Finals, 92 00:04:36,640 --> 00:04:39,840 Speaker 4: the things we'll think of our Game four comeback absolutely 93 00:04:40,120 --> 00:04:42,640 Speaker 4: the og tip for sure. I think you'll think of 94 00:04:42,640 --> 00:04:46,960 Speaker 4: the Wemby turnover, the Fox layup decision before you think 95 00:04:47,000 --> 00:04:50,520 Speaker 4: of anything specific for Jalen Brunson, Like, yeah, you can 96 00:04:50,839 --> 00:04:52,719 Speaker 4: show me a fade away over a guy. It could 97 00:04:52,720 --> 00:04:54,520 Speaker 4: be from any game. Yeah, I'm sure he's shooting it 98 00:04:54,560 --> 00:04:55,800 Speaker 4: from the right side of the court. He did it 99 00:04:55,839 --> 00:04:59,640 Speaker 4: so many times. There weren't any like specific Brunson did 100 00:04:59,640 --> 00:05:02,040 Speaker 4: this play, but you will think of forty five and 101 00:05:02,120 --> 00:05:04,000 Speaker 4: it closed that game to win him the championship for 102 00:05:04,040 --> 00:05:05,320 Speaker 4: the first time in over fifty years. 103 00:05:05,440 --> 00:05:08,080 Speaker 1: Yeah, specific, like that play on Wemby was awesome. I 104 00:05:08,160 --> 00:05:11,279 Speaker 1: will think of him like driving NonStop, like as this 105 00:05:11,400 --> 00:05:14,560 Speaker 1: game got close again, as it has been all series. 106 00:05:15,080 --> 00:05:17,120 Speaker 1: You know, he hit threes, yes, and obviously got a 107 00:05:17,160 --> 00:05:19,040 Speaker 1: lot of free throws, but there are so many buckets 108 00:05:19,080 --> 00:05:22,039 Speaker 1: from Brunson in the second half where he just drove 109 00:05:22,120 --> 00:05:24,359 Speaker 1: to the rim on anybody that was on him, be 110 00:05:24,440 --> 00:05:27,279 Speaker 1: it Wemby, be at Castle, and he was always getting 111 00:05:27,360 --> 00:05:30,679 Speaker 1: like especially a Spurs big that was like caught between 112 00:05:30,720 --> 00:05:32,240 Speaker 1: him I staying with the guy in the corner or not, 113 00:05:32,320 --> 00:05:35,080 Speaker 1: and he would get him with the pass fake every time. 114 00:05:35,120 --> 00:05:37,839 Speaker 1: He just has incredible footwork and timing. So yeah, he 115 00:05:37,920 --> 00:05:40,520 Speaker 1: just kept attacking. And the play like the big one 116 00:05:40,560 --> 00:05:43,119 Speaker 1: here in Game five was that probably that little twelve 117 00:05:43,200 --> 00:05:45,680 Speaker 1: foot floater right that Brunson hit to put them up 118 00:05:46,040 --> 00:05:48,000 Speaker 1: ninety to eighty eight. And then we got into obviously 119 00:05:48,000 --> 00:05:50,080 Speaker 1: the free throw game of it all, where the Knicks 120 00:05:50,160 --> 00:05:52,400 Speaker 1: kept leaving the door open as they kept splitting a pair, 121 00:05:52,480 --> 00:05:56,599 Speaker 1: but then Spurs unfortunately not capitalizing. I guess Harper at 122 00:05:56,640 --> 00:05:59,440 Speaker 1: the end missing too. But I mean, with all due 123 00:05:59,480 --> 00:06:02,520 Speaker 1: respect to and I even think Willis Reid, I think 124 00:06:02,520 --> 00:06:04,600 Speaker 1: it's pretty obvious with jillm Runson, is that least the 125 00:06:04,640 --> 00:06:06,480 Speaker 1: second best nick of all time? Now I think it's 126 00:06:06,480 --> 00:06:09,440 Speaker 1: Clyde Frazier. Then I think it's him and if you 127 00:06:09,440 --> 00:06:11,760 Speaker 1: want to debate, that fair, but he's also there's no 128 00:06:11,800 --> 00:06:13,839 Speaker 1: debating he's one of the best free agents signings in 129 00:06:13,920 --> 00:06:17,400 Speaker 1: NBA history with what he's meant to this franchise. They 130 00:06:17,440 --> 00:06:20,400 Speaker 1: were garbage for twenty plus years. He comes, they start 131 00:06:20,400 --> 00:06:23,839 Speaker 1: winning because he's a winner. That's all he does, high school, college, 132 00:06:23,839 --> 00:06:24,599 Speaker 1: and now the pros. 133 00:06:25,640 --> 00:06:28,280 Speaker 3: Yeah, in this series, he was the most important player 134 00:06:28,360 --> 00:06:31,480 Speaker 3: every time they won, I know, or every game they won, 135 00:06:31,560 --> 00:06:35,000 Speaker 3: I should say, I know Oji gets the tip, but 136 00:06:35,120 --> 00:06:39,200 Speaker 3: Jalen's got very much what Kobe was that he will 137 00:06:39,240 --> 00:06:41,080 Speaker 3: continue to shoot, and that's what he did. 138 00:06:41,120 --> 00:06:41,760 Speaker 2: In Game one. 139 00:06:42,120 --> 00:06:45,640 Speaker 3: Yeah, thirty shots, sure, thirty one to get him to 140 00:06:45,680 --> 00:06:48,120 Speaker 3: that thirty points, but Oji only got it going in 141 00:06:48,160 --> 00:06:50,960 Speaker 3: the fourth quarter. In that game, they needed every single 142 00:06:50,960 --> 00:06:52,440 Speaker 3: one of those shots. And then in Game two where 143 00:06:52,480 --> 00:06:54,680 Speaker 3: the Spurs decide, okay, we're going to double this guy. 144 00:06:54,800 --> 00:06:56,720 Speaker 3: You know, the other guy's benefited, so it was all 145 00:06:56,760 --> 00:06:58,760 Speaker 3: on him really, and then Game four, as you said, 146 00:06:59,440 --> 00:07:02,279 Speaker 3: just kept pushing making those shots, and then Game five, 147 00:07:03,240 --> 00:07:05,440 Speaker 3: the true exclamation point of the guy who is the 148 00:07:05,480 --> 00:07:08,680 Speaker 3: most important A forty five or you know those are. 149 00:07:08,560 --> 00:07:09,920 Speaker 2: Those are just huge numbers. 150 00:07:09,960 --> 00:07:12,160 Speaker 3: As you threw out the Jordan in there, you know, 151 00:07:12,240 --> 00:07:14,480 Speaker 3: the the Yiannis did it with the fifty, like those 152 00:07:14,480 --> 00:07:16,880 Speaker 3: are the ones that you remember to finish off series. 153 00:07:16,920 --> 00:07:18,360 Speaker 2: So this was great that he did this way. 154 00:07:18,520 --> 00:07:19,040 Speaker 1: Oh my god. 155 00:07:19,120 --> 00:07:21,240 Speaker 4: He had his best game in Game five and like 156 00:07:21,320 --> 00:07:23,840 Speaker 4: every other game was kind of like middling efficiency. He 157 00:07:23,880 --> 00:07:26,520 Speaker 4: went to another level and was actually scoring every time 158 00:07:27,120 --> 00:07:29,320 Speaker 4: the Knicks needed him to outside of the first quarter, 159 00:07:29,360 --> 00:07:31,040 Speaker 4: and he still loved the team in scoring in the 160 00:07:31,040 --> 00:07:33,160 Speaker 4: first quarter in a brutal one. It's just crazy that 161 00:07:33,240 --> 00:07:37,040 Speaker 4: every single game in this series followed the exact same script. 162 00:07:37,160 --> 00:07:40,360 Speaker 4: Like the Spurs were up big again, the game doesn't 163 00:07:40,400 --> 00:07:42,200 Speaker 4: start until the Knicks get down by ten. They got 164 00:07:42,280 --> 00:07:45,080 Speaker 4: up to sixteen point lead for San Antonio in the 165 00:07:45,080 --> 00:07:47,640 Speaker 4: first half, and as they started walking it down, did 166 00:07:47,680 --> 00:07:49,480 Speaker 4: anybody have any doubt that it was going to be 167 00:07:49,480 --> 00:07:51,120 Speaker 4: Brunton and the Knicks that takes the win here? 168 00:07:51,200 --> 00:07:52,520 Speaker 1: So I don't know. I can't. 169 00:07:52,720 --> 00:07:55,560 Speaker 4: I can't judge Walt Clyde Fraser and Willis Reid, Like 170 00:07:55,560 --> 00:07:58,200 Speaker 4: Willis reads a two time finals MVP. They played long 171 00:07:58,240 --> 00:08:00,840 Speaker 4: before I was born. It is the best Nick of 172 00:08:00,880 --> 00:08:03,400 Speaker 4: our lifetime, of course, for sure. I mean Ewing has 173 00:08:03,440 --> 00:08:07,560 Speaker 4: the longevity, absolutely, but he went over. I think he 174 00:08:07,640 --> 00:08:11,239 Speaker 4: passed Youing last night, leaned the Knicks to this championship. 175 00:08:10,880 --> 00:08:13,760 Speaker 3: And you ain't got to cry post game in that celebration. 176 00:08:13,880 --> 00:08:14,440 Speaker 3: He was grind. 177 00:08:14,800 --> 00:08:16,840 Speaker 2: He was feeling all those Knicks legends. 178 00:08:16,840 --> 00:08:18,960 Speaker 1: It's like, I don't know, it's oddly like a weird 179 00:08:19,000 --> 00:08:21,120 Speaker 1: weight off their shoulder for some reason. Like they're on 180 00:08:21,160 --> 00:08:23,440 Speaker 1: the team, of course, and they came up short, but 181 00:08:23,480 --> 00:08:26,200 Speaker 1: it means something to them, and they do as an organization, 182 00:08:26,880 --> 00:08:30,680 Speaker 1: you know, outside of Charles Oakley, he was there best 183 00:08:30,720 --> 00:08:33,680 Speaker 1: for him. The on the road. Yeah, but they do. 184 00:08:33,840 --> 00:08:36,920 Speaker 1: They do celebrate their their nixt legends, probably more than 185 00:08:36,920 --> 00:08:40,840 Speaker 1: most franchises do. So yeah, it's on their jerseys except 186 00:08:40,840 --> 00:08:43,160 Speaker 1: for Charles Oakley. Yeah right right, but must you're on 187 00:08:43,200 --> 00:08:43,520 Speaker 1: the roads? 188 00:08:43,600 --> 00:08:46,120 Speaker 4: Yeah, did he did he get to be a part 189 00:08:46,160 --> 00:08:46,880 Speaker 4: of the celebrations. 190 00:08:47,120 --> 00:08:48,559 Speaker 1: My guess is no. I'm not sure. 191 00:08:48,840 --> 00:08:50,760 Speaker 4: I haven't seen videos or anything. It was just like 192 00:08:50,800 --> 00:08:51,800 Speaker 4: he was on the broadcast. 193 00:08:52,000 --> 00:08:55,559 Speaker 3: Yeah, because Dolan was there, you know, part of the celebration, 194 00:08:55,679 --> 00:08:57,240 Speaker 3: So I guess Charles was not allowed. 195 00:08:57,480 --> 00:08:59,959 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean the joke flying around the uh you know, 196 00:09:00,200 --> 00:09:02,720 Speaker 1: the basketball group chats last night was when the Knicks 197 00:09:02,720 --> 00:09:04,240 Speaker 1: were down at the end of the first quarter and 198 00:09:04,240 --> 00:09:06,560 Speaker 1: then down sixteen. As that lead grew, it was like, well, 199 00:09:06,600 --> 00:09:08,760 Speaker 1: the Knicks got him right where they want him, because 200 00:09:08,800 --> 00:09:12,000 Speaker 1: we've seen this story before and the scriptwriters just keep 201 00:09:12,080 --> 00:09:14,880 Speaker 1: running it back. They're like, hey, people enjoy this story, 202 00:09:15,160 --> 00:09:18,520 Speaker 1: just keep doing it. James Bond exactly exactly, And as 203 00:09:18,559 --> 00:09:21,400 Speaker 1: they walked it back and it was it really was 204 00:09:21,679 --> 00:09:24,400 Speaker 1: just sprunts in. I mean, Bridges played, okay. 205 00:09:24,600 --> 00:09:26,120 Speaker 2: He had the second most points shot. 206 00:09:26,280 --> 00:09:29,760 Speaker 1: Josh Hart played Okay, I'm talking offensively. Defensively, the Knicks 207 00:09:29,800 --> 00:09:32,400 Speaker 1: were amazing and we can get into that, specially down 208 00:09:32,400 --> 00:09:36,040 Speaker 1: the stretch. Their interior defense was elite. But it was 209 00:09:36,080 --> 00:09:39,400 Speaker 1: just those two guys. Of course, it's the Villanova guys, like, man, 210 00:09:39,720 --> 00:09:44,760 Speaker 1: what did we learn here? Family and friends that's what matters. Family. 211 00:09:45,040 --> 00:09:47,400 Speaker 1: He went to the Knicks only because of his goddamn dad. 212 00:09:47,960 --> 00:09:50,880 Speaker 1: With Rick Brunson there, awesome and then the friends part. Yeah, 213 00:09:51,160 --> 00:09:54,480 Speaker 1: the Villanova boys get them all together. Poor Dante not 214 00:09:54,559 --> 00:09:57,200 Speaker 1: there any longer, but yeah it worked. Friendship in the end. 215 00:09:57,360 --> 00:10:00,560 Speaker 4: Yeah, well, and I mean even sorry to Dante Vincenzo, 216 00:10:00,640 --> 00:10:03,120 Speaker 4: but Karl Anthony Towns and Leon Rose are very close 217 00:10:03,480 --> 00:10:07,280 Speaker 4: as well, so he brought him in there and just amazing. 218 00:10:07,520 --> 00:10:10,040 Speaker 4: They literally built on the power of friendship and family 219 00:10:10,480 --> 00:10:11,960 Speaker 4: to win the NBA Championship. 220 00:10:12,160 --> 00:10:15,040 Speaker 1: Because I think none of us would think that. 221 00:10:14,960 --> 00:10:17,000 Speaker 4: The Knicks were the best team in the NBA this year, 222 00:10:17,559 --> 00:10:20,320 Speaker 4: but they peaked at the absolute perfect time ever twice 223 00:10:20,360 --> 00:10:21,840 Speaker 4: if you want to throw in the NBA Cup as well, 224 00:10:21,880 --> 00:10:24,240 Speaker 4: because they played great basketball during all of those games. 225 00:10:24,280 --> 00:10:25,679 Speaker 4: But we all picked New York to get to the 226 00:10:25,720 --> 00:10:28,920 Speaker 4: finals during the preseason. But we all also, I think, 227 00:10:29,040 --> 00:10:31,120 Speaker 4: agreed that the Celtics were the favorites heading into the 228 00:10:31,160 --> 00:10:34,640 Speaker 4: Eastern Conference playoffs. They obviously botched it. But then the 229 00:10:34,720 --> 00:10:37,199 Speaker 4: Knicks get down two to one to Atlanta, they completely 230 00:10:37,240 --> 00:10:40,160 Speaker 4: reformulate the way they play offense, destroyed the rest of 231 00:10:40,160 --> 00:10:43,280 Speaker 4: the Eastern Conference playoffs, get to the finals, and their 232 00:10:43,280 --> 00:10:45,560 Speaker 4: offense went back to stinking. This was a bad offensive 233 00:10:45,600 --> 00:10:48,400 Speaker 4: series for the Knicks, all things considered. The thing that 234 00:10:48,400 --> 00:10:51,160 Speaker 4: that happened, though, is that they started to believe they 235 00:10:51,160 --> 00:10:53,640 Speaker 4: went on this crazy winning streak, and in reality, what 236 00:10:53,679 --> 00:10:56,080 Speaker 4: the winning streak was was playing defense, because their defense 237 00:10:56,120 --> 00:10:59,559 Speaker 4: in the series was awesome. They they're like a bottom 238 00:10:59,720 --> 00:11:02,720 Speaker 4: five offensive team during the NBA Finals here with their 239 00:11:02,760 --> 00:11:04,240 Speaker 4: offensive ring, it was like one o eight to one 240 00:11:04,320 --> 00:11:06,120 Speaker 4: ten depending on what site you look at. But they 241 00:11:06,120 --> 00:11:08,120 Speaker 4: held the Spurs to even worse, and that was really 242 00:11:08,160 --> 00:11:10,760 Speaker 4: the difference maker. It was awesome when Towns was out 243 00:11:10,800 --> 00:11:14,160 Speaker 4: on the wing orchestrating things. They were destroying everybody in 244 00:11:14,160 --> 00:11:16,720 Speaker 4: the Eastern Conference. It didn't work in the finals against 245 00:11:16,720 --> 00:11:18,599 Speaker 4: the Spurs, but they had Brunson. He was willing to 246 00:11:18,640 --> 00:11:21,720 Speaker 4: go I'll take thirty shots. Yeah, I'll shoot thirty percent 247 00:11:21,800 --> 00:11:23,480 Speaker 4: from the field. Somebody's got to do it. And that 248 00:11:23,559 --> 00:11:24,600 Speaker 4: was the difference for New York. 249 00:11:26,320 --> 00:11:27,480 Speaker 2: That's why the NBA is great. 250 00:11:27,760 --> 00:11:33,000 Speaker 3: It doesn't matter if we believe or if anybody believes. 251 00:11:33,120 --> 00:11:36,480 Speaker 3: It's always a new team, right. It's obviously the last 252 00:11:36,520 --> 00:11:39,840 Speaker 3: eight years it's been a new team. But in that 253 00:11:39,920 --> 00:11:42,240 Speaker 3: locker room, they believed in the NBA Cup, they believed 254 00:11:42,240 --> 00:11:44,440 Speaker 3: that they would get there, and they got there. Well, 255 00:11:44,480 --> 00:11:48,600 Speaker 3: we all doubted it. Now we gave the Spurs. A 256 00:11:48,600 --> 00:11:51,000 Speaker 3: lot of people did give their Spurs their flowers after 257 00:11:51,000 --> 00:11:53,720 Speaker 3: they were able to knock off Oka See and anoint them. Okay, 258 00:11:53,720 --> 00:11:56,480 Speaker 3: here they are, they're the champs now. But that's what 259 00:11:56,559 --> 00:12:00,480 Speaker 3: makes basketball great. Some predicted it obviously that the Dicks 260 00:12:00,480 --> 00:12:00,920 Speaker 3: would do it. 261 00:12:01,920 --> 00:12:04,080 Speaker 1: They did just started to They did become a team 262 00:12:04,120 --> 00:12:06,640 Speaker 1: of destiny. There's no way around it. Like the victories 263 00:12:06,800 --> 00:12:09,400 Speaker 1: and and like when you say team of destiny, it 264 00:12:09,440 --> 00:12:11,680 Speaker 1: feels like, oh, they got lucky. Now there are some 265 00:12:11,760 --> 00:12:14,839 Speaker 1: crazy plays, no doubt, but also kudos to them. They 266 00:12:14,880 --> 00:12:17,480 Speaker 1: just would always go and close the series down. Toughest 267 00:12:17,520 --> 00:12:19,439 Speaker 1: thing to do, put a team to bed. What did 268 00:12:19,440 --> 00:12:21,600 Speaker 1: they do every one of those like close out games, 269 00:12:21,800 --> 00:12:25,439 Speaker 1: they went always into the other team's barn and generally 270 00:12:25,480 --> 00:12:27,800 Speaker 1: crushed them. This one obviously a much closer game, but 271 00:12:27,840 --> 00:12:30,839 Speaker 1: that's impressive. Like they no team, it felt like was 272 00:12:30,880 --> 00:12:35,679 Speaker 1: built more for the intensity, the physicality of the playoffs. 273 00:12:35,880 --> 00:12:38,200 Speaker 1: And this game, man was off the charts in terms 274 00:12:38,280 --> 00:12:43,040 Speaker 1: of like letting the boys play besides you, Carl Anthony Towns, 275 00:12:43,480 --> 00:12:46,320 Speaker 1: but everybody else, Like, holy crap was I mean it 276 00:12:46,360 --> 00:12:49,199 Speaker 1: was a goddamn rock fight. Like obviously a low scoring 277 00:12:49,240 --> 00:12:53,120 Speaker 1: affair throughout all four quarters. But they're just they're built 278 00:12:53,160 --> 00:12:55,240 Speaker 1: for it. And you know, I think a huge part 279 00:12:55,240 --> 00:12:57,680 Speaker 1: of it is obviously following their leader in Jalen Brunston. 280 00:12:57,720 --> 00:12:59,760 Speaker 1: He's like, I'll play this way, no problem, let's go 281 00:13:00,160 --> 00:13:03,920 Speaker 1: is the rock? What else from game five or this final? 282 00:13:04,120 --> 00:13:07,000 Speaker 4: Well, I think this finals really it shows me you 283 00:13:07,000 --> 00:13:08,400 Speaker 4: can't skip steps. 284 00:13:08,760 --> 00:13:09,400 Speaker 1: Yeah. 285 00:13:09,679 --> 00:13:12,200 Speaker 4: I thought Wemby would be the first player to get 286 00:13:12,240 --> 00:13:15,240 Speaker 4: to his first playoffs, get into the finals, and actually 287 00:13:15,240 --> 00:13:18,160 Speaker 4: be able to overcome the lack of experience. That's the 288 00:13:18,160 --> 00:13:21,120 Speaker 4: way he played through the Western Conference Finals, and clearly 289 00:13:21,160 --> 00:13:23,880 Speaker 4: that wasn't the case in the NBA Finals. He still 290 00:13:23,880 --> 00:13:25,720 Speaker 4: got to take your lumps. You still got to see 291 00:13:25,720 --> 00:13:27,839 Speaker 4: what works and what doesn't and what's gonna have to 292 00:13:27,880 --> 00:13:30,200 Speaker 4: happen for Wemby is like he needs a go to move. 293 00:13:30,280 --> 00:13:33,400 Speaker 4: He needs an in between game rather than shooting threes, 294 00:13:33,400 --> 00:13:35,079 Speaker 4: which he can get a three off any time he wants, 295 00:13:35,280 --> 00:13:37,560 Speaker 4: just because of his height and his skill set where 296 00:13:37,559 --> 00:13:39,199 Speaker 4: his release is, he could take a three any time 297 00:13:39,200 --> 00:13:40,920 Speaker 4: he wants. It's not always the best shot. He can't 298 00:13:40,960 --> 00:13:43,360 Speaker 4: always get inside. He's got to figure out something in 299 00:13:43,440 --> 00:13:46,599 Speaker 4: between alley oop dunks and shooting threes because putting the 300 00:13:46,640 --> 00:13:48,880 Speaker 4: ball on the floor, trying to get around defenders that 301 00:13:48,920 --> 00:13:51,760 Speaker 4: are allowed to play more physically. In a finals that 302 00:13:51,880 --> 00:13:54,640 Speaker 4: was as physical as this one is, he looked out 303 00:13:54,640 --> 00:13:56,880 Speaker 4: of sorts. At times like he still put up incredible numbers, 304 00:13:56,920 --> 00:13:59,160 Speaker 4: Like we're gonna look back at Wemby's first finals and 305 00:13:59,200 --> 00:14:01,040 Speaker 4: be like, whoa twenty seven per game? He was going 306 00:14:01,040 --> 00:14:02,840 Speaker 4: crazy out there. He didn't even know how to play offense. 307 00:14:02,880 --> 00:14:04,840 Speaker 4: But he's gonna have to figure out how to play offense. 308 00:14:04,880 --> 00:14:07,319 Speaker 4: And they're gonna have to figure out the Spurs what 309 00:14:07,360 --> 00:14:11,160 Speaker 4: they want to do going forward, because Dylan Harper outplayed 310 00:14:11,200 --> 00:14:15,600 Speaker 4: Darren Fox ridiculously in this game and throughout the entirety 311 00:14:15,600 --> 00:14:19,200 Speaker 4: of the NBA Finals. This was yet another poor Fox game, 312 00:14:19,280 --> 00:14:22,000 Speaker 4: and he was like every shot he was taken in 313 00:14:22,040 --> 00:14:24,840 Speaker 4: the fourth quarter felt like a turnover, and it felt 314 00:14:24,840 --> 00:14:27,520 Speaker 4: like they were killing the knicks. Like Harper missed in 315 00:14:27,560 --> 00:14:30,720 Speaker 4: the fourth quarter as well. He somehow missed his easiest layup. 316 00:14:30,760 --> 00:14:33,280 Speaker 4: He had that one on Oje to tie the game. 317 00:14:33,600 --> 00:14:35,640 Speaker 4: That was probably the easiest finish he could have had 318 00:14:35,920 --> 00:14:39,840 Speaker 4: all things considered. But you know, he still outplayed Fox 319 00:14:40,280 --> 00:14:42,480 Speaker 4: last night and definitely throughout the finals. So they're gonna 320 00:14:42,480 --> 00:14:43,880 Speaker 4: have to figure out what to do with those guys 321 00:14:43,920 --> 00:14:46,400 Speaker 4: going forward, because you look at Harper and you're like, 322 00:14:46,920 --> 00:14:49,040 Speaker 4: that guy could be Jalen Brunson going forward. 323 00:14:49,040 --> 00:14:49,680 Speaker 2: The way he plays. 324 00:14:50,520 --> 00:14:53,640 Speaker 3: Yeah, another guy that needs to find a go to 325 00:14:53,640 --> 00:14:55,160 Speaker 3: I think it is Stefan Castle. He needs to find 326 00:14:55,200 --> 00:14:57,960 Speaker 3: a go to move, a go to bucket, a go 327 00:14:58,000 --> 00:15:00,520 Speaker 3: to shot, whether it's a stop and pop or it's 328 00:15:00,520 --> 00:15:03,200 Speaker 3: a step back of some sort, there's something that needs 329 00:15:03,240 --> 00:15:06,840 Speaker 3: to be found there, because, yeah, they relied on Darren 330 00:15:06,840 --> 00:15:09,720 Speaker 3: Fox the last five twenty. He had four shots. They 331 00:15:09,760 --> 00:15:14,480 Speaker 3: all missed, one extremely short, one three that was wide open, 332 00:15:14,520 --> 00:15:16,120 Speaker 3: the other two kind of contested. But there are just 333 00:15:16,160 --> 00:15:18,520 Speaker 3: four jumpers that all the attention goes to. 334 00:15:18,520 --> 00:15:18,840 Speaker 2: Wenby. 335 00:15:18,840 --> 00:15:20,520 Speaker 3: I got a shot to take and he missed every 336 00:15:20,520 --> 00:15:24,080 Speaker 3: single one of those. So Mitch Johnson can also be 337 00:15:24,200 --> 00:15:27,680 Speaker 3: ridiculed for not going to Dylan Harper earlier in the 338 00:15:27,680 --> 00:15:31,240 Speaker 3: fourth quarter. I mean he got him on in eight 339 00:15:31,320 --> 00:15:33,240 Speaker 3: fifty one and then he scored right away, and then 340 00:15:33,240 --> 00:15:35,640 Speaker 3: he didn't shoot for another four minutes. His next shot 341 00:15:35,680 --> 00:15:39,720 Speaker 3: was four thirty. He had his own possession there and 342 00:15:39,800 --> 00:15:42,800 Speaker 3: he missed, and then the fast break that was blocked, 343 00:15:42,800 --> 00:15:46,000 Speaker 3: and then you know, one twenty left, he hits that bucket. 344 00:15:46,000 --> 00:15:48,520 Speaker 3: But yeah, the free throws he missed, and that other 345 00:15:48,600 --> 00:15:51,480 Speaker 3: shot that you mentioned Trey. I mean, there's things to 346 00:15:51,520 --> 00:15:54,680 Speaker 3: slice about Mitch Johnson. Another weird thing I thought was 347 00:15:54,760 --> 00:15:57,480 Speaker 3: Victor Wembinyama going to the bench with two thirty four 348 00:15:57,560 --> 00:15:58,560 Speaker 3: left in the second quarter. 349 00:15:58,720 --> 00:16:00,160 Speaker 2: I mean, that was weird, But. 350 00:16:00,200 --> 00:16:02,800 Speaker 1: Weren't they trying to like project to the fourth quarter 351 00:16:02,920 --> 00:16:05,000 Speaker 1: like they Yeah, it was pretty apparent they were like, 352 00:16:06,040 --> 00:16:08,240 Speaker 1: try and get as much rest as possible here in 353 00:16:08,240 --> 00:16:10,680 Speaker 1: the first half to obviously close this out, you try 354 00:16:10,680 --> 00:16:12,120 Speaker 1: and get it back to message. Yes, And I think 355 00:16:12,160 --> 00:16:12,720 Speaker 1: that's the thinking. 356 00:16:12,720 --> 00:16:15,320 Speaker 3: At least, he only played seventeen minutes in that first half, 357 00:16:15,680 --> 00:16:18,040 Speaker 3: so if you want to add numbers, he would have 358 00:16:18,040 --> 00:16:20,160 Speaker 3: gotten up to nineteen minutes if he played that last 359 00:16:20,200 --> 00:16:23,320 Speaker 3: two thirty. Instead, Luke Cornett comes out. They lose that 360 00:16:23,320 --> 00:16:26,760 Speaker 3: two thirty by three points, and the three points essentially 361 00:16:26,840 --> 00:16:29,280 Speaker 3: being when Luke Cornett couldn't catch a pass from Stefan 362 00:16:29,360 --> 00:16:32,160 Speaker 3: Castle and Josh Hart turns it around and scores at 363 00:16:32,160 --> 00:16:34,440 Speaker 3: the other end and the Spurs are hit with a 364 00:16:34,440 --> 00:16:37,480 Speaker 3: flagrant foul. I think that's a fair question, ask why 365 00:16:37,560 --> 00:16:40,040 Speaker 3: isn't he playing out there the last two thirty. Now 366 00:16:41,000 --> 00:16:43,160 Speaker 3: he got subbed in from five forty six to two 367 00:16:43,200 --> 00:16:45,600 Speaker 3: thirty four, and he kind of was going head to 368 00:16:45,680 --> 00:16:48,080 Speaker 3: head with Jalen Brunson a little bit like Jalen Brunson 369 00:16:48,600 --> 00:16:52,480 Speaker 3: started to respond to that wide open shot I mentioned 370 00:16:52,520 --> 00:16:54,320 Speaker 3: earlier when Luke Cornett gained that wide open shot and 371 00:16:54,400 --> 00:16:57,520 Speaker 3: you could see Wemby's mid range shot that he missed 372 00:16:57,520 --> 00:16:59,160 Speaker 3: and the three point shot that he missed, you know, 373 00:16:59,200 --> 00:17:01,200 Speaker 3: maybe didn't have the flow. And that's why Miss Johnson 374 00:17:01,240 --> 00:17:04,440 Speaker 3: said get off the floor. But I think even if 375 00:17:04,480 --> 00:17:07,679 Speaker 3: it's a guy who's not rested out there instead of 376 00:17:07,720 --> 00:17:10,560 Speaker 3: Luke Cornett literally just being a big body. And I 377 00:17:10,640 --> 00:17:13,399 Speaker 3: mentioned that one where Luke Cornette couldn't catch the ball 378 00:17:13,680 --> 00:17:16,040 Speaker 3: and that turned into Josh Hart going the other way, 379 00:17:16,520 --> 00:17:19,960 Speaker 3: Wemby catches it. Those hands are not tired. He would 380 00:17:19,960 --> 00:17:22,800 Speaker 3: have caught the ball even if he's just running out there. Again, 381 00:17:23,040 --> 00:17:26,440 Speaker 3: he got up to thirty seven minutes and fifty two 382 00:17:26,440 --> 00:17:29,720 Speaker 3: seconds played in this game. He didn't play a ton. Obviously, Yeah, 383 00:17:29,760 --> 00:17:32,560 Speaker 3: he's tired, and he's never played this much before and 384 00:17:32,600 --> 00:17:34,640 Speaker 3: all that. But still those are the things I think 385 00:17:34,640 --> 00:17:36,439 Speaker 3: you could say to miss Johnson, what up with that? 386 00:17:36,480 --> 00:17:39,080 Speaker 3: And that's obviously something Wemby will go into the summer 387 00:17:39,080 --> 00:17:42,360 Speaker 3: and deal with. Is trying to get as fresh as 388 00:17:42,400 --> 00:17:46,560 Speaker 3: possible for the NBA Finals for that that war of attrition. 389 00:17:46,800 --> 00:17:49,080 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's funny, and we talked about it sort of 390 00:17:49,080 --> 00:17:51,320 Speaker 1: all season long, and we looked at it as a positive, 391 00:17:51,400 --> 00:17:54,120 Speaker 1: this idea, and I think it is in general, like, well, 392 00:17:54,119 --> 00:17:55,479 Speaker 1: it don't have to play him a lot of minutes 393 00:17:55,560 --> 00:17:57,920 Speaker 1: like that, that's huge. Like I mean, by the time 394 00:17:57,920 --> 00:17:59,560 Speaker 1: you get to the championship, like you're getting that what 395 00:17:59,760 --> 00:18:02,000 Speaker 1: on games like ninety to one hundred games, so it's 396 00:18:02,000 --> 00:18:03,600 Speaker 1: starting to add up. But if you don't have to 397 00:18:03,640 --> 00:18:06,680 Speaker 1: play them all these heavy minutes, that should be good, right, yes, 398 00:18:07,440 --> 00:18:09,320 Speaker 1: But the counter to that is if you don't have 399 00:18:09,359 --> 00:18:11,240 Speaker 1: to play those heavy minutes, you don't play those games 400 00:18:11,280 --> 00:18:13,000 Speaker 1: where it's like a forty minute game that you're playing 401 00:18:13,040 --> 00:18:15,399 Speaker 1: or forty three minute that you don't get the reps 402 00:18:15,720 --> 00:18:17,760 Speaker 1: and your body and your lungs and all that for 403 00:18:17,840 --> 00:18:19,879 Speaker 1: when the time calls that you need it, like I do. 404 00:18:19,920 --> 00:18:22,360 Speaker 1: You know, there's a reason why marathon runners in their 405 00:18:22,400 --> 00:18:26,320 Speaker 1: training go out and run twenty twenty one miles twenty 406 00:18:26,359 --> 00:18:28,439 Speaker 1: two miles. It's literally just to be like, what's my 407 00:18:28,520 --> 00:18:30,280 Speaker 1: body gonna do when I get to that point of 408 00:18:30,320 --> 00:18:33,280 Speaker 1: the race, Like it's it's you know, it's you don't 409 00:18:33,280 --> 00:18:35,280 Speaker 1: do it all. You don't do it every day. You 410 00:18:35,280 --> 00:18:37,359 Speaker 1: don't go run twenty miles every day when you're training 411 00:18:37,359 --> 00:18:40,200 Speaker 1: for a marathon, but you do do it. So I'm 412 00:18:40,280 --> 00:18:42,280 Speaker 1: not I'm not saying like the part of the strategy 413 00:18:42,320 --> 00:18:44,440 Speaker 1: next season will be like, all right, Wemby, you're playing 414 00:18:44,480 --> 00:18:46,960 Speaker 1: forty five tonight just to maybe get you ready. But 415 00:18:47,000 --> 00:18:48,879 Speaker 1: I just I wonder if it had some sort of 416 00:18:48,880 --> 00:18:51,439 Speaker 1: impact because you know, he hasn't had to do it 417 00:18:51,440 --> 00:18:53,159 Speaker 1: and didn't have to do it, and then you get 418 00:18:53,200 --> 00:18:55,520 Speaker 1: in a playoffs where it's one hundred times more physical. 419 00:18:56,400 --> 00:18:59,160 Speaker 1: So that alone, Yeah, I don't know something to watch 420 00:18:59,200 --> 00:18:59,960 Speaker 1: next year for sure. 421 00:19:01,920 --> 00:19:02,920 Speaker 2: That's a good way to put it. 422 00:19:03,000 --> 00:19:05,000 Speaker 3: And thanks for the personal reminder because I'm running the 423 00:19:05,040 --> 00:19:07,880 Speaker 3: Peachtree Road Race and for you in a few weeks. 424 00:19:08,119 --> 00:19:11,040 Speaker 2: And it's too hot to be running out there. I 425 00:19:11,040 --> 00:19:11,840 Speaker 2: gotta get I got to. 426 00:19:12,119 --> 00:19:14,040 Speaker 3: The plan was to get up over you know the 427 00:19:14,080 --> 00:19:16,040 Speaker 3: six point two to one miles that it is six 428 00:19:16,080 --> 00:19:16,560 Speaker 3: point two. 429 00:19:16,520 --> 00:19:19,720 Speaker 2: Two and I'm having done it. It's a ten kay 430 00:19:19,760 --> 00:19:21,760 Speaker 2: yeah yeah, yeah. So it's a good heart break. 431 00:19:21,680 --> 00:19:24,200 Speaker 1: Heartbreak, kill though, power through test. 432 00:19:24,440 --> 00:19:27,080 Speaker 3: I'll be a Josh heart break through that I'll just 433 00:19:27,280 --> 00:19:32,640 Speaker 3: power through. But yeah, I think that is true. And honestly, yeah, 434 00:19:32,720 --> 00:19:36,439 Speaker 3: the Louke Cornet minutes were tough, but. 435 00:19:37,119 --> 00:19:39,040 Speaker 2: That just has to be there. 436 00:19:39,200 --> 00:19:42,040 Speaker 1: That's if I told you you at home in a 437 00:19:42,320 --> 00:19:45,360 Speaker 1: do or die game, you're okay. Cat has two points 438 00:19:45,960 --> 00:19:49,280 Speaker 1: and the Knicks bench did basically nothing for like, I 439 00:19:49,280 --> 00:19:52,000 Speaker 1: don't know, thirty six minutes, right, no, right at the 440 00:19:52,080 --> 00:19:54,320 Speaker 1: end of the third quarter, Clarkson and Mitchell Robinson I 441 00:19:54,359 --> 00:19:56,119 Speaker 1: think scored, but you're basically right. And then and then 442 00:19:56,119 --> 00:19:58,840 Speaker 1: Shaman hit a couple of buckets and you lost, like 443 00:19:58,960 --> 00:20:01,360 Speaker 1: holy crap, Like you would be like, I think we're 444 00:20:01,359 --> 00:20:04,000 Speaker 1: feeling pretty good. We'll probably go back to Madison Square Garden. Yeah, 445 00:20:04,640 --> 00:20:09,760 Speaker 1: but no, no brunts and Bruntson crushed you. Literally, He's like, God, 446 00:20:09,800 --> 00:20:11,680 Speaker 1: we're gonna add this right now. Just give me the ball, 447 00:20:11,760 --> 00:20:12,560 Speaker 1: get the hell out of the way. 448 00:20:14,119 --> 00:20:15,680 Speaker 4: They didn't have a guy who could go score every 449 00:20:15,680 --> 00:20:17,760 Speaker 4: single time, no, or at least get a shot every 450 00:20:17,760 --> 00:20:20,240 Speaker 4: single time. And that was what was the difference in 451 00:20:20,280 --> 00:20:24,679 Speaker 4: this entire series, Like Cornett like whatever, Yeah, he stunk. 452 00:20:24,720 --> 00:20:27,880 Speaker 4: He was terrible this entire series. There is the slowest 453 00:20:27,880 --> 00:20:30,000 Speaker 4: guy out there. Yeah, he did far the slowest guy 454 00:20:30,000 --> 00:20:32,520 Speaker 4: out there, but like who else, literally, who else with 455 00:20:32,600 --> 00:20:34,440 Speaker 4: the Spur is going to play. They had seven guys 456 00:20:34,480 --> 00:20:36,560 Speaker 4: on their bench that you wouldn't even consider no putting it. 457 00:20:36,880 --> 00:20:37,080 Speaker 2: Yeah. 458 00:20:37,200 --> 00:20:40,480 Speaker 3: Yeah for me, now that you say that Luke Cornette 459 00:20:40,560 --> 00:20:43,160 Speaker 3: was sick, I mean looking at his face, he did 460 00:20:43,440 --> 00:20:45,960 Speaker 3: trail that being said. 461 00:20:46,160 --> 00:20:48,280 Speaker 2: I don't care about the Spurs bench play Wemby more. 462 00:20:48,320 --> 00:20:50,520 Speaker 3: I know it's simple for me to say here, but literally, 463 00:20:51,040 --> 00:20:53,920 Speaker 3: even if he doesn't shoot, that body out there would 464 00:20:53,960 --> 00:20:57,000 Speaker 3: have not dropped the ball. Luke Cornett dropped multiple balls 465 00:20:57,000 --> 00:20:59,280 Speaker 3: in this game. He even had one that won't be 466 00:20:59,280 --> 00:21:01,480 Speaker 3: in the box scores turnover, but he dropped another defensive 467 00:21:01,480 --> 00:21:04,040 Speaker 3: rebound that happened to go to another teammate. I guess 468 00:21:04,040 --> 00:21:07,400 Speaker 3: he was sick, but Mitchell Robinson absolutely destroyed him out there. 469 00:21:07,440 --> 00:21:09,840 Speaker 1: And Mitch Robinson, you know again you're a look at 470 00:21:09,840 --> 00:21:11,400 Speaker 1: the box scorer and not be wow. But he played 471 00:21:11,400 --> 00:21:13,280 Speaker 1: twenty minutes because of the foul trouble to cat and 472 00:21:13,280 --> 00:21:17,280 Speaker 1: he had two massive offensive rebounds in the fourth quarter. 473 00:21:18,160 --> 00:21:20,440 Speaker 1: Did that one for sure, but I thought he had 474 00:21:20,440 --> 00:21:22,760 Speaker 1: that other one too where he got it and then 475 00:21:22,760 --> 00:21:25,160 Speaker 1: he got rid of it before and then Mike Brown 476 00:21:25,200 --> 00:21:26,800 Speaker 1: called the time out before they could even do the 477 00:21:26,840 --> 00:21:29,760 Speaker 1: hack of mich that was obviously on the spot. Great 478 00:21:29,800 --> 00:21:32,560 Speaker 1: coaching call from Mike Brown there to like not even 479 00:21:32,600 --> 00:21:34,320 Speaker 1: like have a worry of him going to the line. 480 00:21:34,720 --> 00:21:36,600 Speaker 1: But yeah, a couple of huge rebounds and the one 481 00:21:36,600 --> 00:21:39,159 Speaker 1: off the Josh Hart miss free throw was it was 482 00:21:39,200 --> 00:21:41,680 Speaker 1: like a sort of a ice or what's the word 483 00:21:41,680 --> 00:21:43,600 Speaker 1: I'm looking for, dagger, Yeah, a. 484 00:21:43,640 --> 00:21:48,000 Speaker 4: Dagger rebound clock for him. Man, it was right over 485 00:21:48,040 --> 00:21:50,280 Speaker 4: Wemby as well. Like, I didn't think Mitchell Robinson played 486 00:21:50,280 --> 00:21:53,040 Speaker 4: a great series, but he was probably had his best 487 00:21:53,040 --> 00:21:55,080 Speaker 4: game in Game five, and they needed quite a bit 488 00:21:55,080 --> 00:21:58,359 Speaker 4: from him with Towns getting into foul trouble uh once again. 489 00:21:58,520 --> 00:22:00,760 Speaker 4: So yeah, I mean santon Tonio was going to look 490 00:22:00,800 --> 00:22:03,280 Speaker 4: back on this and be like, we kind. 491 00:22:03,119 --> 00:22:03,440 Speaker 1: Of blew it. 492 00:22:03,640 --> 00:22:07,439 Speaker 4: Oh yes, oh yeah, I mean they threw away the 493 00:22:07,440 --> 00:22:10,640 Speaker 4: game twice in Game two, in Game four, but even 494 00:22:10,640 --> 00:22:13,119 Speaker 4: this it's like Town's barely scored. Nobody else on the 495 00:22:13,160 --> 00:22:16,080 Speaker 4: Knicks had anything going. New York scored ninety four points. 496 00:22:16,680 --> 00:22:19,080 Speaker 4: But Spurs did a great job defensively in this series, 497 00:22:19,119 --> 00:22:21,399 Speaker 4: but they just didn't have the offense to keep up 498 00:22:21,440 --> 00:22:24,439 Speaker 4: with a Knicks team that was struggling as well, but 499 00:22:24,640 --> 00:22:25,720 Speaker 4: just had one guy who. 500 00:22:25,560 --> 00:22:26,160 Speaker 1: Could do enough. 501 00:22:26,359 --> 00:22:29,959 Speaker 3: Yeah, and one moment that will be forgotten, but I 502 00:22:30,000 --> 00:22:33,960 Speaker 3: do think was important was after the og tip Cat 503 00:22:34,200 --> 00:22:38,480 Speaker 3: tipping the inbound to Stefan Castle, that the design play 504 00:22:38,520 --> 00:22:41,720 Speaker 3: for Stefan Castle that looked to be perfect, that looked 505 00:22:41,720 --> 00:22:44,160 Speaker 3: to be an allup that was going down because Defon 506 00:22:44,240 --> 00:22:47,480 Speaker 3: Castle beat everybody to the hoop, but the Dylan Harper 507 00:22:47,520 --> 00:22:49,760 Speaker 3: inbound was tip by Cat. So that's something that will 508 00:22:49,760 --> 00:22:51,360 Speaker 3: always forget. 509 00:22:51,520 --> 00:22:53,840 Speaker 2: And the next that wasn't doing their part. 510 00:22:54,800 --> 00:22:57,400 Speaker 1: Noticed Scott Foster last night. I noticed he was telling 511 00:22:57,440 --> 00:23:00,520 Speaker 1: a lot more people in the front road. I'm back. 512 00:23:00,840 --> 00:23:03,000 Speaker 1: You did it a couple times on a couple in bounds. 513 00:23:03,840 --> 00:23:06,280 Speaker 1: It was really, uh, you know, operating over there. 514 00:23:07,280 --> 00:23:08,880 Speaker 2: I'm glad that it's all over. 515 00:23:08,920 --> 00:23:12,320 Speaker 3: And I'm not talking about officiating because Scottie and that 516 00:23:12,400 --> 00:23:13,800 Speaker 3: whole efficient crew. 517 00:23:14,880 --> 00:23:16,600 Speaker 4: There were some bad ones in this one, oh baby. 518 00:23:16,760 --> 00:23:17,560 Speaker 2: Yeah. 519 00:23:17,600 --> 00:23:19,440 Speaker 1: Well the one, oh my god, the one where Brunson 520 00:23:19,520 --> 00:23:21,840 Speaker 1: got hacked like eight times at the end of the 521 00:23:21,880 --> 00:23:24,639 Speaker 1: game that nearly resulted in an over and back or 522 00:23:24,640 --> 00:23:26,760 Speaker 1: a turnover. It went to bridges in the end, but 523 00:23:26,840 --> 00:23:29,919 Speaker 1: like he got he was getting mulled and like you 524 00:23:30,040 --> 00:23:32,439 Speaker 1: know he's going to get fouled. So it's like, come on, 525 00:23:32,600 --> 00:23:34,440 Speaker 1: what I mean, you're trying just I guess to see 526 00:23:34,480 --> 00:23:36,360 Speaker 1: what happens here. But yeah, that was rough. And then 527 00:23:37,160 --> 00:23:39,000 Speaker 1: I want to get your opinion on the the Wemby 528 00:23:39,800 --> 00:23:42,600 Speaker 1: sliding under Brunson of it all. You imagine what we 529 00:23:42,640 --> 00:23:44,639 Speaker 1: would be talking about here this morning. If the Spurs 530 00:23:44,680 --> 00:23:47,119 Speaker 1: win this game, we would be sitting here going is 531 00:23:47,160 --> 00:23:48,880 Speaker 1: when you going to be allowed to play? In Game 532 00:23:48,960 --> 00:23:51,639 Speaker 1: six of the NBA Finals? Because about halfway through the 533 00:23:51,640 --> 00:23:55,960 Speaker 1: third quarter, Brunton shoots the three, Wemby gets up under him. 534 00:23:56,000 --> 00:23:59,320 Speaker 1: Now we can debate whether Brunson kicked his foot out 535 00:23:59,320 --> 00:24:01,560 Speaker 1: and wasn't really a natural landing position all that, but 536 00:24:01,600 --> 00:24:04,240 Speaker 1: he's underneath them. Nothing's called. The league was going to 537 00:24:04,280 --> 00:24:07,000 Speaker 1: look at it, Trey. I mean, it doesn't matter now, 538 00:24:07,000 --> 00:24:08,439 Speaker 1: But what do you think your gut says? Do you 539 00:24:08,440 --> 00:24:11,840 Speaker 1: think the league would have said, No, Brunson was, you know, 540 00:24:11,960 --> 00:24:13,680 Speaker 1: kicking his leg out, We're gonna let him play. 541 00:24:13,760 --> 00:24:16,080 Speaker 4: Okay, great way to frame the question, because clearly that 542 00:24:16,119 --> 00:24:18,600 Speaker 4: was a flagrant file that was that was an easy one. 543 00:24:18,640 --> 00:24:20,320 Speaker 4: What would the league do they would not give it 544 00:24:20,359 --> 00:24:22,000 Speaker 4: to Wemby. There's no way they're going to suspend this 545 00:24:22,040 --> 00:24:23,040 Speaker 4: guy for a close out game. 546 00:24:23,119 --> 00:24:25,359 Speaker 1: So Jesus, thank god they protected him. 547 00:24:25,240 --> 00:24:28,440 Speaker 4: The entire time. But that was clearly a flagrant foul. 548 00:24:28,440 --> 00:24:30,520 Speaker 4: But you can also see Tyler Ford is the guy 549 00:24:30,520 --> 00:24:33,480 Speaker 4: who let it go. He's doing like weird kick motions. 550 00:24:33,680 --> 00:24:36,000 Speaker 4: He was saying that Brunson extended his leg, and I 551 00:24:36,359 --> 00:24:39,560 Speaker 4: disagree with that one. But if Scott Foster is the extender, 552 00:24:39,600 --> 00:24:42,240 Speaker 4: when you put Scott Foster and Tyler Ford together, that's 553 00:24:42,280 --> 00:24:44,440 Speaker 4: the extender. Two point h They were doing their best 554 00:24:44,760 --> 00:24:47,440 Speaker 4: to try and help the Spurs out in this one. 555 00:24:47,480 --> 00:24:50,679 Speaker 3: I thought, I think the NBA needs to change the 556 00:24:50,720 --> 00:24:53,760 Speaker 3: flagrant foul points ruled this summer because you. 557 00:24:53,760 --> 00:24:54,320 Speaker 1: Want to up it. 558 00:24:55,280 --> 00:24:57,879 Speaker 3: Would change it, no, No, I would change how long 559 00:24:59,240 --> 00:25:02,520 Speaker 3: those points are counted four because if you look at 560 00:25:02,520 --> 00:25:06,199 Speaker 3: the playoffs, Wemby got two points on May tenth for 561 00:25:06,320 --> 00:25:08,840 Speaker 3: hitting Nasried in the throat. He would have got a 562 00:25:08,840 --> 00:25:12,280 Speaker 3: suspension for something that happened on May tenth, and then 563 00:25:12,359 --> 00:25:15,840 Speaker 3: hitting Cat on June tenth, hit him in the chin, 564 00:25:16,000 --> 00:25:18,840 Speaker 3: and then this one on June thirteenth, with which absolutely 565 00:25:19,000 --> 00:25:20,000 Speaker 3: should have been one. 566 00:25:20,440 --> 00:25:22,240 Speaker 1: So do you think the league would have had the 567 00:25:22,359 --> 00:25:25,160 Speaker 1: guts though, like try to say, no way to suspend 568 00:25:25,200 --> 00:25:26,919 Speaker 1: Wenby for Game six of the NBA Finals. 569 00:25:26,960 --> 00:25:29,399 Speaker 3: I think it's highly unlikely, but he definitely should have 570 00:25:29,440 --> 00:25:29,960 Speaker 3: been called. 571 00:25:30,280 --> 00:25:32,360 Speaker 2: Now, I wonder in the moment. 572 00:25:32,720 --> 00:25:35,240 Speaker 3: I don't know, I'm trying to give the refs some 573 00:25:35,240 --> 00:25:38,080 Speaker 3: some slack here because it's Dylan Harper who falls to 574 00:25:38,200 --> 00:25:42,240 Speaker 3: the floor as Wemby steps under him. Maybe they're also 575 00:25:42,280 --> 00:25:44,520 Speaker 3: looking at that and didn't see it in the moment, 576 00:25:44,680 --> 00:25:47,760 Speaker 3: but either way, it should have been called, and they 577 00:25:47,760 --> 00:25:50,000 Speaker 3: missed that. They also missed the push to Bronson as 578 00:25:50,000 --> 00:25:54,480 Speaker 3: a foul, and so yeah, maybe they're just protecting Wenby. 579 00:25:54,520 --> 00:25:57,000 Speaker 2: But I do think four points. 580 00:25:56,600 --> 00:25:59,880 Speaker 3: Over the course of because of this game, this playoffs 581 00:25:59,920 --> 00:26:02,879 Speaker 3: is so long over the course of literally it was 582 00:26:02,920 --> 00:26:03,800 Speaker 3: over a month. 583 00:26:04,119 --> 00:26:06,359 Speaker 2: Maybe it's three points per series. 584 00:26:06,440 --> 00:26:07,840 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's interesting, Yeah. 585 00:26:07,720 --> 00:26:11,440 Speaker 3: Because literally he could have three points like a month ago, 586 00:26:12,040 --> 00:26:14,719 Speaker 3: and then so you have one flagrant foul in this 587 00:26:14,800 --> 00:26:16,280 Speaker 3: series and you get suspended for that. 588 00:26:16,680 --> 00:26:19,040 Speaker 2: There's a better way. I think there's a better way. 589 00:26:19,240 --> 00:26:23,920 Speaker 4: If I think that the twenty sixteen Warriors would feel 590 00:26:23,960 --> 00:26:25,720 Speaker 4: a type of way about that. Yeah, part of the 591 00:26:25,720 --> 00:26:28,000 Speaker 4: reason Draymond was suspended was points as well. To have 592 00:26:28,080 --> 00:26:29,440 Speaker 4: to smunt to humanis. 593 00:26:29,280 --> 00:26:33,040 Speaker 3: Right from round one that he got exactly that. It 594 00:26:33,080 --> 00:26:35,480 Speaker 3: was two months worth of points for him. It was 595 00:26:35,520 --> 00:26:37,960 Speaker 3: long and thenended to the play into the fourth So I. 596 00:26:37,840 --> 00:26:39,359 Speaker 4: Think, yeah, I don't know what get a member is though, 597 00:26:39,400 --> 00:26:41,240 Speaker 4: because then you're telling me you can just elbow a 598 00:26:41,240 --> 00:26:43,800 Speaker 4: guy in the head once getting suspended. 599 00:26:45,119 --> 00:26:47,400 Speaker 2: Well flagrant too. 600 00:26:47,400 --> 00:26:49,360 Speaker 1: Oh, I guess you could still say you could be suspended. 601 00:26:49,440 --> 00:26:51,480 Speaker 3: Yeah, susp it is different, and that you can be 602 00:26:51,480 --> 00:26:54,800 Speaker 3: suspended for elbowing a guy if if you go, you know, 603 00:26:54,840 --> 00:26:55,520 Speaker 3: throw some fists. 604 00:26:57,520 --> 00:26:58,880 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean three points. 605 00:26:58,880 --> 00:27:00,720 Speaker 4: There's a lot of flagrant foul points to be allowed 606 00:27:00,760 --> 00:27:01,920 Speaker 4: for an entire playoff run. 607 00:27:02,240 --> 00:27:03,200 Speaker 1: That's a lot. 608 00:27:03,920 --> 00:27:06,600 Speaker 2: So some people are, oh, so you see you thinking 609 00:27:06,640 --> 00:27:08,000 Speaker 2: lower it from four. 610 00:27:08,160 --> 00:27:11,560 Speaker 4: No, I'm that's I'm saying. Wenby hit a lot of 611 00:27:11,560 --> 00:27:15,280 Speaker 4: guys in the head during the playoffs. Yeah, he would 612 00:27:15,320 --> 00:27:17,680 Speaker 4: have been due for a suspension, and a well earned one. 613 00:27:17,720 --> 00:27:19,440 Speaker 1: He had a lot of guys in the face. This one, 614 00:27:19,520 --> 00:27:21,760 Speaker 1: this one, this one amazingly had nothing to do with 615 00:27:21,800 --> 00:27:22,560 Speaker 1: the face. 616 00:27:22,680 --> 00:27:25,159 Speaker 4: Yeah, just more than I don't know, I don't know 617 00:27:25,200 --> 00:27:26,879 Speaker 4: if the number needs to be changed, I guess, is 618 00:27:26,920 --> 00:27:27,440 Speaker 4: what I'm saying. 619 00:27:27,520 --> 00:27:28,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, I hear, I am. 620 00:27:28,840 --> 00:27:32,840 Speaker 1: I was so happy the nixt one, So we don't 621 00:27:32,920 --> 00:27:34,960 Speaker 1: have to I mean, we're already talking about it. But 622 00:27:35,040 --> 00:27:38,040 Speaker 1: that would have been the discourse for forty eight hours 623 00:27:38,119 --> 00:27:40,199 Speaker 1: or whatever. One. Game six would have been Tuesday night. 624 00:27:40,280 --> 00:27:42,840 Speaker 1: Oh my god, That's all it would have been. And 625 00:27:42,880 --> 00:27:45,280 Speaker 1: then no matter what the league decided, it would have 626 00:27:45,320 --> 00:27:48,320 Speaker 1: been an uproar. Yeah, whether they let him play uproar 627 00:27:48,320 --> 00:27:50,600 Speaker 1: from Knicks fans, and probably rightfully so, whether they don't 628 00:27:50,680 --> 00:27:52,080 Speaker 1: let them play. Oh my god, what are they doing? 629 00:27:52,160 --> 00:27:53,760 Speaker 1: Is the league stupid? They're taking out, you know, the 630 00:27:53,800 --> 00:27:56,399 Speaker 1: generational talent like so they would have been in a 631 00:27:56,520 --> 00:28:01,040 Speaker 1: no win situation. Uh, but the next one. So yeah, 632 00:28:01,240 --> 00:28:03,080 Speaker 1: Knicks are sixteen and three in the playoffs and they 633 00:28:03,119 --> 00:28:06,000 Speaker 1: won fifteen to their final sixteen postseason. Anything happened in 634 00:28:06,040 --> 00:28:11,399 Speaker 1: that one game? Uh yeah, not much, not much, not much. 635 00:28:12,240 --> 00:28:15,159 Speaker 1: Anything else from Game five or x's and o's all 636 00:28:15,160 --> 00:28:17,840 Speaker 1: that stuff. We got funny silly random notes. But yeah, 637 00:28:17,840 --> 00:28:20,160 Speaker 1: this was a little bit the push in the back game. 638 00:28:20,640 --> 00:28:21,600 Speaker 1: It was two. 639 00:28:21,359 --> 00:28:25,359 Speaker 4: Flagrants for a guy pushing somebody as they go up 640 00:28:25,400 --> 00:28:27,440 Speaker 4: for a layup. It was Deer and Fox on Josh 641 00:28:27,480 --> 00:28:30,520 Speaker 4: Hart and then Mitchell Robinson on Wemby, which brings about 642 00:28:30,560 --> 00:28:32,880 Speaker 4: the craziest rule that exists in the NBA because both 643 00:28:32,920 --> 00:28:35,600 Speaker 4: guys made their shot that they got followed on the 644 00:28:35,640 --> 00:28:38,760 Speaker 4: two for one made free throw on a flagrant on 645 00:28:38,800 --> 00:28:42,600 Speaker 4: an and one. It always catches me by surprise, same 646 00:28:42,800 --> 00:28:46,400 Speaker 4: because we missing, he gets another chance. 647 00:28:46,440 --> 00:28:50,480 Speaker 1: That's such a weird one to me, of course, yeah, yep, 648 00:28:51,080 --> 00:28:53,960 Speaker 1: it twice. Yeah, but we talk about this all time. 649 00:28:53,960 --> 00:28:56,520 Speaker 1: It's a super dangerous play when a guy is in 650 00:28:56,560 --> 00:28:58,440 Speaker 1: the air or is about to take off in the 651 00:28:58,440 --> 00:29:00,320 Speaker 1: air and the tiniest of push it does and take 652 00:29:00,320 --> 00:29:03,480 Speaker 1: a lot. It's dangerous as well, so that should be 653 00:29:03,560 --> 00:29:06,400 Speaker 1: penalized as such. And they got those and they've usually 654 00:29:06,480 --> 00:29:08,840 Speaker 1: been all over the sliding under guys too, So that's 655 00:29:08,880 --> 00:29:12,320 Speaker 1: why that brunswone was weird. He went down, he rolled 656 00:29:12,360 --> 00:29:15,120 Speaker 1: his ankle or hurt his ankle on Wenby's giant ass foot. 657 00:29:16,000 --> 00:29:17,640 Speaker 1: I don't know. Maybe part of it I was thinking too, 658 00:29:17,680 --> 00:29:19,920 Speaker 1: is he hit the three and they were like, well 659 00:29:19,920 --> 00:29:21,959 Speaker 1: he hit it, you know, let's go. I wonder if 660 00:29:21,960 --> 00:29:24,840 Speaker 1: he misses and this guy battles through why is he 661 00:29:24,880 --> 00:29:27,360 Speaker 1: even in a finals game? He's like, was like, I'm sorry. 662 00:29:27,400 --> 00:29:28,760 Speaker 1: He was like, on the list is one of the 663 00:29:28,800 --> 00:29:31,520 Speaker 1: refs that needs improvement, So why is he in the fire? 664 00:29:31,640 --> 00:29:35,320 Speaker 1: That tier three? I think? So I believe you he's bad. 665 00:29:35,640 --> 00:29:37,600 Speaker 1: I agree he's a tier three or for me. 666 00:29:37,600 --> 00:29:41,000 Speaker 3: Yeah, that list was the player's perspective, right they were. 667 00:29:41,320 --> 00:29:45,400 Speaker 3: That was from the PA, right, so the referees, the 668 00:29:45,440 --> 00:29:47,320 Speaker 3: Referee Association probably looks at it differently. 669 00:29:47,400 --> 00:29:50,800 Speaker 2: Okay, but anyway, anyway, they missed that. They messed that up. 670 00:29:50,920 --> 00:29:53,240 Speaker 3: There's no doubt they probably said that guy is going 671 00:29:53,320 --> 00:29:56,479 Speaker 3: to keep playing, Just let him go because he battles 672 00:29:56,480 --> 00:29:59,040 Speaker 3: through every injury, like he actually was stronger when he 673 00:29:59,120 --> 00:29:59,880 Speaker 3: rolls his ankle. 674 00:30:00,280 --> 00:30:02,520 Speaker 1: Kind of true. Yeah, I remember the thing. 675 00:30:02,600 --> 00:30:05,240 Speaker 4: I was like, remember he hurt his knee, Harrison Barnes 676 00:30:05,240 --> 00:30:06,200 Speaker 4: fell into his knee. 677 00:30:06,000 --> 00:30:08,360 Speaker 2: And the first quarter of game. 678 00:30:08,160 --> 00:30:10,520 Speaker 4: One, I was like, the Knicks finally make it back 679 00:30:10,560 --> 00:30:12,520 Speaker 4: to the finals and they're gonna lose Jalen bruns In 680 00:30:12,560 --> 00:30:14,800 Speaker 4: for the entirety of the series, and instead he ends 681 00:30:14,880 --> 00:30:18,400 Speaker 4: up Finals MVP, So pretty sweet for him. There was 682 00:30:18,440 --> 00:30:21,000 Speaker 4: some championships I'm like trying to think of what is 683 00:30:21,080 --> 00:30:23,400 Speaker 4: this finals run remind me of first thing, of course, 684 00:30:23,440 --> 00:30:26,719 Speaker 4: twenty eleven MAVs, where a team just like Clicks at 685 00:30:26,760 --> 00:30:30,680 Speaker 4: the absolute perfect time, plays their best basketball in the playoffs, 686 00:30:31,160 --> 00:30:33,640 Speaker 4: and I guess you can consider I guess you could 687 00:30:33,680 --> 00:30:35,480 Speaker 4: consider Dirk a little bit of brunts in and that 688 00:30:35,560 --> 00:30:37,760 Speaker 4: he was making all these clutch shots, but also a 689 00:30:37,760 --> 00:30:39,600 Speaker 4: little bit of Karl Anthony Towns where it's like, we've 690 00:30:39,600 --> 00:30:42,360 Speaker 4: had questions about can you get to the absolute highest 691 00:30:42,440 --> 00:30:45,320 Speaker 4: level and they finally come through late in their career. 692 00:30:45,400 --> 00:30:47,840 Speaker 1: But the peaking at the right time for sure, and 693 00:30:47,920 --> 00:30:50,280 Speaker 1: the idea to me of like an older team too. 694 00:30:50,560 --> 00:30:53,400 Speaker 1: Absolutely that's and like I know, when you compare them 695 00:30:53,400 --> 00:30:55,920 Speaker 1: to the Spurs, for sure, like their their immaturity, their 696 00:30:55,960 --> 00:30:59,080 Speaker 1: inexperience definitely reared as ugly head but the Knicks not that. 697 00:30:59,240 --> 00:31:00,880 Speaker 4: Yeah, of course, So yeah, I think that is a 698 00:31:00,880 --> 00:31:02,920 Speaker 4: fair comparison. That was the first one I think. I 699 00:31:02,960 --> 00:31:06,320 Speaker 4: also think Celtics twenty twenty four is kind of a 700 00:31:06,360 --> 00:31:10,200 Speaker 4: similar championship to the Knicks, and that they dominated the 701 00:31:10,240 --> 00:31:13,840 Speaker 4: Eastern Conference playoffs. The Celtics didn't have Porzingis for that 702 00:31:14,000 --> 00:31:16,640 Speaker 4: entire championship. They got him back in the finals, and 703 00:31:16,720 --> 00:31:18,280 Speaker 4: they didn't have him in the Eastern Conference at all. 704 00:31:18,320 --> 00:31:21,520 Speaker 4: They're also a great team that beat a young phenom. 705 00:31:21,680 --> 00:31:25,040 Speaker 4: It was Luka Doncic, yeah on the MAVs back then Wemby. 706 00:31:24,800 --> 00:31:25,440 Speaker 1: On the Spurs. 707 00:31:25,440 --> 00:31:27,800 Speaker 4: I guess it got a Texas connection as well, and 708 00:31:27,800 --> 00:31:30,239 Speaker 4: then finally the Calves in twenty sixteen, and that this 709 00:31:30,320 --> 00:31:35,480 Speaker 4: is such a massive title from a historical importance scenario, 710 00:31:35,680 --> 00:31:39,160 Speaker 4: like the Calves hadn't ever won a championship obviously, the 711 00:31:39,240 --> 00:31:42,320 Speaker 4: Knicks have been fifty plus years since theirs ending that drought, 712 00:31:42,400 --> 00:31:45,520 Speaker 4: and you know, like Lebron is the entirety of the 713 00:31:45,600 --> 00:31:48,240 Speaker 4: Knicks in this scenario where it's like it matters so 714 00:31:48,360 --> 00:31:50,560 Speaker 4: much to the legacy of one guy, it matters so 715 00:31:50,640 --> 00:31:52,200 Speaker 4: much to the legacy. So those are the teams I 716 00:31:52,240 --> 00:31:55,400 Speaker 4: thought of, Dallas twenty eleven, Celtics twenty four and then 717 00:31:55,400 --> 00:31:56,640 Speaker 4: the Cavs in twenty sixteen. 718 00:31:57,520 --> 00:31:58,920 Speaker 2: Yeah, those are good ones for sure. 719 00:32:00,120 --> 00:32:02,440 Speaker 3: Anything else, well, I did think that we were going 720 00:32:02,520 --> 00:32:05,720 Speaker 3: to catch a Wemby double digit block game. 721 00:32:05,880 --> 00:32:07,800 Speaker 2: I mean, on the there was a. 722 00:32:07,720 --> 00:32:10,920 Speaker 1: Point it was sixteen minutes into the game, Wemby had 723 00:32:10,960 --> 00:32:14,080 Speaker 1: as many blocks as the Knicks had field goals made 724 00:32:14,680 --> 00:32:18,040 Speaker 1: it was five. Yeah, he had five blocks sixteen minutes 725 00:32:18,080 --> 00:32:19,959 Speaker 1: in and he hadn't played all sixteen minutes. Let's make 726 00:32:20,000 --> 00:32:22,120 Speaker 1: that very clear. He played like whatever it was percentage 727 00:32:22,160 --> 00:32:26,240 Speaker 1: of that, probably three quarters of that, but well that's wild. 728 00:32:26,240 --> 00:32:28,560 Speaker 3: Block number five was ten thirty four left in the 729 00:32:28,560 --> 00:32:32,320 Speaker 3: second quarter, so like thirteen and a half minutes. Oh okay, yeah, 730 00:32:32,360 --> 00:32:35,160 Speaker 3: so I thought we were getting you know, ten. 731 00:32:36,080 --> 00:32:38,040 Speaker 1: Well, they brought it up on the broadcast, Dwight Howard 732 00:32:38,080 --> 00:32:40,160 Speaker 1: right with the finals record of nine. 733 00:32:40,280 --> 00:32:40,520 Speaker 2: Yeah. 734 00:32:40,800 --> 00:32:43,880 Speaker 4: Yeah, and the licks just kept going at him, yeah. 735 00:32:45,360 --> 00:32:49,360 Speaker 2: Going at him. Uh, and it looked like you could 736 00:32:49,400 --> 00:32:49,920 Speaker 2: have had a six. 737 00:32:50,000 --> 00:32:51,800 Speaker 3: He could kind of call the one he hit on 738 00:32:51,920 --> 00:32:53,760 Speaker 3: Og It was kind of like a it was like 739 00:32:53,800 --> 00:32:56,680 Speaker 3: a steal block. He would have shot it, though, but 740 00:32:56,720 --> 00:32:58,960 Speaker 3: went sort of stole it before he got up there. 741 00:33:00,480 --> 00:33:03,640 Speaker 3: It was cool to see Wemby block Og on another 742 00:33:03,800 --> 00:33:07,160 Speaker 3: attempt of a quick dunk that he had twice in 743 00:33:07,160 --> 00:33:09,480 Speaker 3: this series where he was able to go buy Wemby 744 00:33:09,600 --> 00:33:13,080 Speaker 3: and dunk on him, and then Wemby in this case 745 00:33:13,160 --> 00:33:16,160 Speaker 3: jumped right at the right point which was really late 746 00:33:16,200 --> 00:33:18,040 Speaker 3: and just able to get it. So that was that 747 00:33:18,200 --> 00:33:23,160 Speaker 3: was cool. The other thing Wemby Og related where Og 748 00:33:23,320 --> 00:33:26,080 Speaker 3: went by him like he was like he was Steph 749 00:33:26,160 --> 00:33:28,960 Speaker 3: Curry doing the Steph. It looked like the Steph move 750 00:33:29,160 --> 00:33:30,800 Speaker 3: where he got to the three point line. He kind 751 00:33:30,840 --> 00:33:32,520 Speaker 3: of looked like he picked it up for a second. 752 00:33:32,520 --> 00:33:34,560 Speaker 3: You know, Steph looks like he picks it up, but 753 00:33:34,600 --> 00:33:35,880 Speaker 3: he doesn't put both hands on it. 754 00:33:35,920 --> 00:33:38,000 Speaker 2: And then he continues to dribble. Oh he put both hands. 755 00:33:38,320 --> 00:33:39,080 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, they missed. 756 00:33:39,080 --> 00:33:42,720 Speaker 2: They missed that one by far. And then he was like, 757 00:33:42,760 --> 00:33:46,520 Speaker 2: what the hell they miss They missed some stuff. 758 00:33:46,600 --> 00:33:49,920 Speaker 1: They missed some stuff, missed some stuff. No doubt, they're 759 00:33:49,960 --> 00:33:52,440 Speaker 1: not perfect. The extender was trying to extend. But I 760 00:33:52,480 --> 00:33:55,280 Speaker 1: also saw a stat like the Knicks may have not 761 00:33:55,400 --> 00:33:59,560 Speaker 1: lost a game with Scott Foster was one of the officials. 762 00:33:59,560 --> 00:34:02,000 Speaker 1: I think all that going around, so I'm sort of crazy, 763 00:34:02,120 --> 00:34:05,880 Speaker 1: that's true. All right, let's get into some random notes 764 00:34:05,920 --> 00:34:07,520 Speaker 1: from Game five of the NBA Finals. 765 00:34:07,880 --> 00:34:15,600 Speaker 3: Random My first random note, did a Spurs player fart 766 00:34:15,800 --> 00:34:17,080 Speaker 3: during the national anthem? 767 00:34:17,640 --> 00:34:18,880 Speaker 2: WHOA yes? 768 00:34:19,040 --> 00:34:22,360 Speaker 3: Because you can watch the camera go across all the 769 00:34:22,400 --> 00:34:26,080 Speaker 3: Spurs players. You see Stefan Castle, he's getting into the 770 00:34:26,200 --> 00:34:29,080 Speaker 3: zone type of thing, and then it's panning and then 771 00:34:29,320 --> 00:34:32,040 Speaker 3: he gets to Victor Webbin Yama, who's got his eyes closed, 772 00:34:32,040 --> 00:34:33,080 Speaker 3: he's locked in, and then. 773 00:34:33,320 --> 00:34:34,680 Speaker 2: He opens up, what is that? 774 00:34:34,920 --> 00:34:35,360 Speaker 1: What is it? 775 00:34:36,120 --> 00:34:40,440 Speaker 3: He's is it something he heard that was odd in 776 00:34:40,480 --> 00:34:41,400 Speaker 3: the national anthem? 777 00:34:41,440 --> 00:34:42,799 Speaker 1: That's what I thought he was reacting to. 778 00:34:43,520 --> 00:34:46,200 Speaker 2: Well, I thought she did a great question of Mickey. Oh. 779 00:34:46,239 --> 00:34:48,160 Speaker 1: I thought there was like a weird I don't know, 780 00:34:48,200 --> 00:34:50,279 Speaker 1: it was a little it was a little out of 781 00:34:50,280 --> 00:34:51,920 Speaker 1: pitch on that part. I thought that's what he was 782 00:34:51,920 --> 00:34:52,520 Speaker 1: reacting to. 783 00:34:52,800 --> 00:34:57,120 Speaker 3: Yeah, I thought more so that. I don't know, that's 784 00:34:57,120 --> 00:34:58,480 Speaker 3: a question for someone to ask. 785 00:34:58,760 --> 00:34:58,920 Speaker 2: Now. 786 00:34:58,920 --> 00:35:03,879 Speaker 3: Mickey Guyton also was questioning things. She took out her 787 00:35:03,920 --> 00:35:06,320 Speaker 3: ear piece, you know when it happens to a singer 788 00:35:06,640 --> 00:35:09,760 Speaker 3: really early, really early, because things were going. 789 00:35:10,280 --> 00:35:11,160 Speaker 2: But that was the way I ever. 790 00:35:11,640 --> 00:35:12,759 Speaker 1: She crushed it. 791 00:35:13,000 --> 00:35:13,719 Speaker 2: She crush it. 792 00:35:13,800 --> 00:35:16,280 Speaker 3: Yeah, So that's why I think it's more fart than sound, 793 00:35:17,520 --> 00:35:19,360 Speaker 3: because he was puzzled, he was. 794 00:35:19,360 --> 00:35:22,680 Speaker 1: Lost, think of it. Are a few things more disrespectful 795 00:35:22,760 --> 00:35:28,160 Speaker 1: during the national anthem? That's literally dropping. I'm sorry. I 796 00:35:28,400 --> 00:35:32,040 Speaker 1: know I'm the most patreonic guy, but even I have 797 00:35:32,160 --> 00:35:35,080 Speaker 1: a line that you cross and I love the fart, 798 00:35:35,200 --> 00:35:38,759 Speaker 1: but I wouldn't hold it. I mean, that's ellis Man, 799 00:35:39,400 --> 00:35:45,040 Speaker 1: that guy. He hated the anthem first, you would do it? 800 00:35:45,640 --> 00:35:46,080 Speaker 1: You would? 801 00:35:46,960 --> 00:35:47,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, So I don't know. 802 00:35:47,680 --> 00:35:50,040 Speaker 1: If it's I thought he was reacting to her, But I. 803 00:35:50,000 --> 00:35:52,560 Speaker 3: Don't know if it's Carter Bryan who's standing next to Wemby. 804 00:35:52,800 --> 00:35:56,960 Speaker 3: Carter Brian is the closest potential farter. 805 00:35:57,320 --> 00:35:57,440 Speaker 2: Uh. 806 00:35:58,840 --> 00:36:01,880 Speaker 1: Hold on, if it was Carter Bryant, wouldn't you immediately 807 00:36:02,000 --> 00:36:04,520 Speaker 1: eyes open? Yes, but wouldn't you look in his direction? 808 00:36:05,040 --> 00:36:05,239 Speaker 2: Yeah? 809 00:36:05,280 --> 00:36:08,600 Speaker 3: You're probably straightforward, probably right, But we have had a 810 00:36:08,960 --> 00:36:12,919 Speaker 3: Spurs fart history. That was a pre game last year 811 00:36:13,040 --> 00:36:14,960 Speaker 3: with Chris Paul was on the team, so it must 812 00:36:14,960 --> 00:36:16,920 Speaker 3: have been last year. That was a pregame scenario. Was 813 00:36:17,120 --> 00:36:23,080 Speaker 3: CD Sosco? Oh yeah, j Victor Webma where they're going 814 00:36:23,160 --> 00:36:24,760 Speaker 3: through the line. 815 00:36:25,239 --> 00:36:29,680 Speaker 2: I think it was so handed who was probably the farter. 816 00:36:29,800 --> 00:36:31,839 Speaker 1: Yeah, he was partying last night. I'm sure he's had 817 00:36:31,880 --> 00:36:34,480 Speaker 1: some crazy parts in the last I don't know, twelve 818 00:36:34,560 --> 00:36:38,000 Speaker 1: hours or something.

Like obviously they try and contribute 833 00:37:11,600 --> 00:37:13,840 Speaker 1: when they can, but they're there for good vibes to it. 834 00:37:14,000 --> 00:37:16,800 Speaker 1: Like so the Clarkson's and the Hawk parties party in 835 00:37:16,840 --> 00:37:21,439 Speaker 1: a big I don't know play and then so hand 836 00:37:21,520 --> 00:37:23,160 Speaker 1: like all these guys I don't know, they're just like 837 00:37:23,280 --> 00:37:27,200 Speaker 1: they're having the most fun crap. This is amazing, all right. 838 00:37:27,280 --> 00:37:29,799 Speaker 1: Other random notes thought at U Trey Kirby. Early in 839 00:37:29,800 --> 00:37:32,719 Speaker 1: the game, we had what appeared to be like a 840 00:37:32,760 --> 00:37:36,760 Speaker 1: great row of cowboy hats, decent amount of them there, 841 00:37:37,719 --> 00:37:40,200 Speaker 1: but as you noted, one's like a tricorn hat. 842 00:37:40,640 --> 00:37:43,600 Speaker 4: Yeah, so we got a from right to last black 843 00:37:43,640 --> 00:37:49,400 Speaker 4: cowboy hat, pink cowboy hat, white cowboy hat. And then 844 00:37:50,440 --> 00:37:53,640 Speaker 4: they're like, uh, Todd, can you got a cowboy hat. 845 00:37:54,360 --> 00:37:57,560 Speaker 4: I think I got something I wear it showed up 846 00:37:57,600 --> 00:38:02,080 Speaker 4: in a tricorn cap like he was a pirate ship captain. 847 00:38:02,080 --> 00:38:03,759 Speaker 4: But yeah, I was noticing this too. It was like 848 00:38:04,719 --> 00:38:07,319 Speaker 4: you're seeing them every time. Every time you're like, okay, 849 00:38:07,360 --> 00:38:10,879 Speaker 4: baseline cowboy hat, sideline cowboy hat, other baseline cowboy hat, 850 00:38:10,880 --> 00:38:13,800 Speaker 4: cowboy hat behind the next bench, cowboy hat in the tunnel. 851 00:38:13,840 --> 00:38:19,240 Speaker 1: They're everywhere. But but why it was the weekend Saturday Nurday. 852 00:38:19,480 --> 00:38:21,880 Speaker 4: We talked about the cowboy hats on Friday night, saybe 853 00:38:21,920 --> 00:38:22,719 Speaker 4: even twice as many. 854 00:38:22,760 --> 00:38:25,160 Speaker 1: I felt like people were going crazy. If you are 855 00:38:25,200 --> 00:38:27,920 Speaker 1: a cowboy out there or you live in Texas, is 856 00:38:27,960 --> 00:38:30,920 Speaker 1: this true? Do you wear your cowboy hats on the 857 00:38:30,960 --> 00:38:33,840 Speaker 1: weekends more than you do during the week I gotta know. 858 00:38:33,960 --> 00:38:36,000 Speaker 2: Is it feels like it? 859 00:38:35,239 --> 00:38:41,360 Speaker 1: It sort of does. Yeah. Yeah. We had some Spurs 860 00:38:41,400 --> 00:38:44,799 Speaker 1: fans trying to distract Mitchell Robinson. Of all people, you 861 00:38:44,840 --> 00:38:47,279 Speaker 1: don't need to distract Mitchell Robinson, but they gave it 862 00:38:47,320 --> 00:38:48,920 Speaker 1: a go. We just have a we don't have the 863 00:38:48,960 --> 00:38:51,600 Speaker 1: clip here, but we have a screen grab. I think 864 00:38:51,600 --> 00:38:55,160 Speaker 1: we have a screen grab here right now. Okay, so 865 00:38:55,160 --> 00:38:59,120 Speaker 1: I don't worry. Yeah, they're there there it is. These 866 00:38:59,160 --> 00:39:01,600 Speaker 1: two are just making me laugh. He knew like they 867 00:39:01,600 --> 00:39:04,000 Speaker 1: were making obviously the director laugh enough in the truck, 868 00:39:04,080 --> 00:39:07,040 Speaker 1: like go to the shop behind Mitchel Robinson. That's my work. 869 00:39:07,200 --> 00:39:10,320 Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, and you won't believe it. He missed. 870 00:39:11,000 --> 00:39:13,640 Speaker 4: What did Mitchel Robinson shoot from the free throw line 871 00:39:13,680 --> 00:39:14,320 Speaker 4: in this series? 872 00:39:14,760 --> 00:39:17,400 Speaker 2: Oh? Good, right he hit three eight of nine or something. 873 00:39:17,680 --> 00:39:20,480 Speaker 4: No, not, that's way to Mitchell Robinson I'm talking about. 874 00:39:20,600 --> 00:39:23,240 Speaker 2: Okay, I remember hitting him three. 875 00:39:23,320 --> 00:39:26,000 Speaker 1: I thought he hit I thought maybe four more, four 876 00:39:26,040 --> 00:39:28,520 Speaker 1: for fifteen yeah okay, yeah, yeah. 877 00:39:27,920 --> 00:39:30,440 Speaker 2: Wow, literally seven. 878 00:39:30,520 --> 00:39:32,440 Speaker 1: He brought his percentage in the play. 879 00:39:32,719 --> 00:39:36,239 Speaker 3: Said eight of nine, Like what, I don't know. That's 880 00:39:36,280 --> 00:39:37,920 Speaker 3: why it was overwhelmingly good. 881 00:39:41,760 --> 00:39:42,279 Speaker 1: Loud though. 882 00:39:42,360 --> 00:39:45,200 Speaker 2: Yeah, he makes it the ones that have been planted 883 00:39:45,200 --> 00:39:45,640 Speaker 2: in my brain. 884 00:39:45,680 --> 00:39:47,480 Speaker 1: I thought he had one game where he went fifty percent. 885 00:39:48,200 --> 00:39:51,279 Speaker 1: Probably think he went I thought so, and then we 886 00:39:51,280 --> 00:39:53,280 Speaker 1: were like, wow, good shot. 887 00:39:54,080 --> 00:39:56,160 Speaker 4: It was one for one for the rest of it. Yeah, 888 00:39:56,200 --> 00:39:58,040 Speaker 4: maybe that's what you're thinking. He missed eight of nine. 889 00:39:58,120 --> 00:40:01,480 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah, that's right. Well, hot night. 890 00:40:01,800 --> 00:40:05,560 Speaker 1: Uh June thirteenth, that's a big date for og an 891 00:40:05,600 --> 00:40:08,439 Speaker 1: Andobi because that is the day he won two NBA 892 00:40:08,520 --> 00:40:11,680 Speaker 1: championships once with the Raptors in twenty nineteen. He unfortunately 893 00:40:11,680 --> 00:40:16,680 Speaker 1: didn't play in the finals because of surgery. But June thirteenth, yesterday, 894 00:40:16,719 --> 00:40:18,319 Speaker 1: he wins it with the Knicks, and man, this guy 895 00:40:18,360 --> 00:40:21,200 Speaker 1: was happy. It was great to see a smile and 896 00:40:21,280 --> 00:40:25,520 Speaker 1: Og man he was cheez when he was up on stage. 897 00:40:25,680 --> 00:40:28,359 Speaker 1: This photo Berndie Johnson looking right at the camera too. 898 00:40:29,480 --> 00:40:32,719 Speaker 1: But yeah, I'm just curious, like you, happy for og 899 00:40:33,360 --> 00:40:35,640 Speaker 1: of course to get another title. As as a former Raptor, 900 00:40:35,680 --> 00:40:38,360 Speaker 1: I was. I was extended. He played obviously incredible finals 901 00:40:38,440 --> 00:40:40,160 Speaker 1: MVP running for a while and. 902 00:40:40,080 --> 00:40:43,359 Speaker 3: He played he didn't play in twenty nineteen, So that's 903 00:40:43,400 --> 00:40:46,680 Speaker 3: that's a big difference, you know, the fact that he 904 00:40:46,760 --> 00:40:49,319 Speaker 3: got to be a monstrous part of it. Obviously the 905 00:40:49,360 --> 00:40:53,400 Speaker 3: tip was it was huge. But yeah, and I thought 906 00:40:53,600 --> 00:40:58,520 Speaker 3: post game, everybody rocking it pretty pretty well. I don't 907 00:40:58,520 --> 00:41:00,480 Speaker 3: want to give James Dodlen credit for him anything, but 908 00:41:01,120 --> 00:41:03,040 Speaker 3: a lot of the times when you see an owner 909 00:41:03,840 --> 00:41:08,440 Speaker 3: grab the mic, it is boring. At least James Dolan said. 910 00:41:08,960 --> 00:41:11,600 Speaker 3: The only thing he said was Hey New York, I'm 911 00:41:11,640 --> 00:41:14,359 Speaker 3: sorry it took so long. Hopefully this time won't take 912 00:41:14,360 --> 00:41:14,759 Speaker 3: you as long. 913 00:41:14,840 --> 00:41:16,839 Speaker 2: That's it. Just quick, it's all about New York. 914 00:41:17,239 --> 00:41:21,520 Speaker 3: Get off the mic Jalen brings in rick quick, good 915 00:41:21,960 --> 00:41:25,840 Speaker 3: solid the Josh Hart basically saying along with mickel Bridge 916 00:41:25,840 --> 00:41:28,640 Speaker 3: is saying, you know, f the picks, who. 917 00:41:28,520 --> 00:41:30,680 Speaker 1: Cares forget the picks instead of that. 918 00:41:31,280 --> 00:41:34,320 Speaker 3: Ernie killed it, Jones, just one question for everybody incomes kat. 919 00:41:34,400 --> 00:41:36,799 Speaker 3: It was all solid o g I don't even know 920 00:41:37,000 --> 00:41:39,960 Speaker 3: was that pre interview or post interview where he was 921 00:41:39,960 --> 00:41:42,480 Speaker 3: smiling because you could hear the Knicks players behind me, 922 00:41:42,840 --> 00:41:46,880 Speaker 3: They're like, smile, smile, They're just telling him to smile, 923 00:41:46,920 --> 00:41:47,440 Speaker 3: and he got one. 924 00:41:47,520 --> 00:41:49,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, this is this was all about him. 925 00:41:49,719 --> 00:41:53,000 Speaker 1: The Jalen Brunson interview with Lisa Salters right after the 926 00:41:53,040 --> 00:41:57,040 Speaker 1: game was pretty cool. That was like extremely offense. I 927 00:41:57,040 --> 00:41:59,839 Speaker 1: mean he was obviously cheering up. He was lost for words, 928 00:42:00,120 --> 00:42:02,360 Speaker 1: was like trying to compose himself. I thought that was 929 00:42:02,400 --> 00:42:05,000 Speaker 1: a cool moment. Yeah, it did nothing rehearsed about it, 930 00:42:05,040 --> 00:42:08,359 Speaker 1: of course, or canned lines or nothing like. He's like 931 00:42:08,480 --> 00:42:11,200 Speaker 1: just like, holy crap, it's weird and it's not weird. 932 00:42:11,239 --> 00:42:13,520 Speaker 1: But like Joe Brunson is like he's a rock. He 933 00:42:13,560 --> 00:42:15,600 Speaker 1: does not show his emotions all that much, whether riding 934 00:42:15,640 --> 00:42:17,120 Speaker 1: high or low, it would throw out a game or 935 00:42:17,120 --> 00:42:19,200 Speaker 1: a playoff series or whatever. So for him to finally 936 00:42:19,280 --> 00:42:22,120 Speaker 1: let that out and that that cool moment where he's 937 00:42:22,160 --> 00:42:25,960 Speaker 1: hugging Rick Brunson on the sideline too, and Breen nailed 938 00:42:25,960 --> 00:42:27,840 Speaker 1: it on the call. He said life is not perfect, 939 00:42:27,960 --> 00:42:30,359 Speaker 1: but there are perfect moments, and there's one right there. Now, 940 00:42:30,640 --> 00:42:32,200 Speaker 1: what a line from Brien. I don't know if that's 941 00:42:32,200 --> 00:42:34,720 Speaker 1: can or not, but holy hell, legendary call. 942 00:42:34,600 --> 00:42:35,080 Speaker 2: For that moment. 943 00:42:35,120 --> 00:42:37,319 Speaker 4: I thought, Yeah, I mean, who knows who knows Mike 944 00:42:37,360 --> 00:42:39,600 Speaker 4: Brown has had or Mike Breen has had fifty years 945 00:42:39,680 --> 00:42:41,520 Speaker 4: to come up with ideas for what he would ever 946 00:42:41,600 --> 00:42:44,040 Speaker 4: say if the Knicks won a championship. So he probably 947 00:42:44,120 --> 00:42:47,600 Speaker 4: was just running through a million things. So I actually 948 00:42:47,680 --> 00:42:49,880 Speaker 4: get to do this. That must have felt so cool 949 00:42:49,920 --> 00:42:51,840 Speaker 4: for him. Like I'm a Nicks hater and even I 950 00:42:51,840 --> 00:42:54,360 Speaker 4: can't hate this championship team. These are awesome dudes, Like 951 00:42:54,440 --> 00:42:56,880 Speaker 4: everybody is cool. I do love the way that Brunson 952 00:42:57,120 --> 00:42:59,440 Speaker 4: reacted immediately, he was like, towel over his head, let 953 00:42:59,520 --> 00:43:01,839 Speaker 4: me get my eyes in here. He gave the emotional 954 00:43:02,280 --> 00:43:04,640 Speaker 4: interview to Lisa Salters and then he still got to 955 00:43:04,800 --> 00:43:08,160 Speaker 4: talk trash about his dad always on the stadium or 956 00:43:08,160 --> 00:43:09,000 Speaker 4: on the podium. 957 00:43:09,080 --> 00:43:10,400 Speaker 1: I thought that was so funny. 958 00:43:10,440 --> 00:43:13,040 Speaker 4: She asked him who how many Knicks have scored forty 959 00:43:13,120 --> 00:43:14,040 Speaker 4: in a finals game? 960 00:43:14,200 --> 00:43:15,640 Speaker 1: She's like one. He's like, oh, he's got a guess, 961 00:43:15,719 --> 00:43:18,440 Speaker 1: Rick Broks. That was pretty funny. 962 00:43:18,680 --> 00:43:22,560 Speaker 4: And then like we got a full minute of Mike 963 00:43:22,600 --> 00:43:24,480 Speaker 4: Brown and the rest of the team singing who let 964 00:43:24,480 --> 00:43:24,960 Speaker 4: the Dogs? 965 00:43:25,960 --> 00:43:26,200 Speaker 2: Yeah? 966 00:43:27,000 --> 00:43:31,799 Speaker 1: He took them. Mike was doing Bob then who let 967 00:43:31,880 --> 00:43:36,040 Speaker 1: the Dogs out? And everybody was going nuts. 968 00:43:38,320 --> 00:43:42,120 Speaker 2: That was the most awkward moment. Good. 969 00:43:44,640 --> 00:43:46,359 Speaker 1: We saw some of the merch there when we showed 970 00:43:46,360 --> 00:43:48,759 Speaker 1: you the og photo. But you know, here's the the 971 00:43:48,920 --> 00:43:50,919 Speaker 1: email at the NBA sends out you can go buy 972 00:43:50,960 --> 00:43:54,560 Speaker 1: the NIXT championship shirts. Trey Kirby, your thoughts on their 973 00:43:54,640 --> 00:43:56,759 Speaker 1: championship merch that they were rocking last night? 974 00:43:57,080 --> 00:44:00,239 Speaker 4: Hats Okay, I thought the hats were just fine, like 975 00:44:00,520 --> 00:44:01,560 Speaker 4: nothing special about them. 976 00:44:01,560 --> 00:44:05,920 Speaker 1: But I do like the shirts. Very different but very cool, 977 00:44:06,080 --> 00:44:09,480 Speaker 1: no doubt. Yeah, the champions part right, I think has 978 00:44:09,640 --> 00:44:15,000 Speaker 1: had all the little bit. It was surprising very I 979 00:44:15,000 --> 00:44:15,600 Speaker 1: thought too. 980 00:44:15,840 --> 00:44:19,799 Speaker 2: With a different font the yeah, just the pure black too. 981 00:44:20,000 --> 00:44:22,160 Speaker 1: I mean it almost looks like maybe they thought the 982 00:44:22,160 --> 00:44:26,160 Speaker 1: Spurs were gonna win with the rhinestone cowboys and the 983 00:44:26,200 --> 00:44:29,200 Speaker 1: black and sort of white I guess gray. But what 984 00:44:29,200 --> 00:44:31,359 Speaker 1: do you think a fan of these? Yeah, if you're 985 00:44:31,360 --> 00:44:32,400 Speaker 1: a Nick fan, you'd be buying that. 986 00:44:32,480 --> 00:44:34,920 Speaker 3: I mean, I do like like you said, they're black 987 00:44:34,960 --> 00:44:38,839 Speaker 3: and simple, everything beyond the Larry O'Brian trophy, So that 988 00:44:38,880 --> 00:44:40,439 Speaker 3: stands out because of everything else. 989 00:44:40,640 --> 00:44:43,279 Speaker 2: So I like that part. Yeah, the font, I don't 990 00:44:43,280 --> 00:44:45,439 Speaker 2: know if I can ever go that way. I don't 991 00:44:45,520 --> 00:44:46,280 Speaker 2: love that fun. 992 00:44:46,719 --> 00:44:49,400 Speaker 4: It's surprising that that's like the official shirt. I agree, 993 00:44:49,480 --> 00:44:53,920 Speaker 4: that looks like a secondary shirt, like the locker room one, 994 00:44:53,920 --> 00:44:55,480 Speaker 4: and I'm gonna get a crazy one. I'm gonna get 995 00:44:55,480 --> 00:44:56,520 Speaker 4: the one with the rhinestones on it. 996 00:44:56,680 --> 00:45:03,480 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's a whatever, Josh Hardy. 997 00:45:04,880 --> 00:45:07,160 Speaker 1: And then this was obviously a graphic they showed on 998 00:45:07,200 --> 00:45:09,920 Speaker 1: the broadcast, and you alluded to it pretty early here 999 00:45:09,960 --> 00:45:14,279 Speaker 1: on the on the podcast. Eight different champions over the 1000 00:45:14,360 --> 00:45:16,919 Speaker 1: last eight different seasons, and it you know, it looks 1001 00:45:16,960 --> 00:45:18,960 Speaker 1: pretty crazy when you see the graphic like this with 1002 00:45:19,280 --> 00:45:21,920 Speaker 1: the Raps and Lakers, Bucks, Warriors, you know, gets Celtics, 1003 00:45:21,960 --> 00:45:27,759 Speaker 1: Thunder and now Nicks. Yeah, like I think I think 1004 00:45:27,840 --> 00:45:31,360 Speaker 1: hardcore basketball fans probably enjoy this and like this, I 1005 00:45:31,360 --> 00:45:33,440 Speaker 1: don't want to answer for everybody where maybe I don't know. 1006 00:45:33,560 --> 00:45:36,000 Speaker 1: Do casuals prefer the dynasties of it all and then 1007 00:45:36,000 --> 00:45:39,839 Speaker 1: we can root or hate for dynasties maybe, but unbelievable 1008 00:45:40,120 --> 00:45:42,680 Speaker 1: parody here. Silver loves this TK at the very least. 1009 00:45:42,880 --> 00:45:44,719 Speaker 4: Oh yeah, And I mean I'm like trying to think 1010 00:45:44,760 --> 00:45:47,239 Speaker 4: of teams that even made repeat trips. I guess the 1011 00:45:47,280 --> 00:45:49,839 Speaker 4: Warriors would have been there twice during that span because 1012 00:45:49,880 --> 00:45:51,040 Speaker 4: they were nineteen. 1013 00:45:52,400 --> 00:45:54,000 Speaker 1: And twenty two, the. 1014 00:45:53,920 --> 00:45:57,400 Speaker 4: Celtic twice they lost to the Warriors and then won it, 1015 00:45:57,520 --> 00:46:00,319 Speaker 4: and the Heat went twice and didn't win it time. 1016 00:46:00,400 --> 00:46:00,600 Speaker 2: Yeah. 1017 00:46:01,239 --> 00:46:05,560 Speaker 4: But I mean this specific finals has to be the 1018 00:46:05,600 --> 00:46:08,600 Speaker 4: perfect finals for Silver, right in it being the Knicks 1019 00:46:08,760 --> 00:46:12,439 Speaker 4: and Wemby, Like there's when you're looking at all those ones. 1020 00:46:12,440 --> 00:46:17,000 Speaker 4: I guess the other one would probably be Celtics versus Warriors, 1021 00:46:17,000 --> 00:46:19,600 Speaker 4: for like a perfect ideal finals that you would want 1022 00:46:19,640 --> 00:46:22,319 Speaker 4: with Curry being the draw and the Celtics being the 1023 00:46:22,480 --> 00:46:23,760 Speaker 4: historic team as well. 1024 00:46:24,360 --> 00:46:25,840 Speaker 1: But yeah, it's been a crazy run. 1025 00:46:26,840 --> 00:46:29,680 Speaker 3: And just in terms of the actual lineup, the New 1026 00:46:29,719 --> 00:46:33,840 Speaker 3: York Knicks ran out there Elias said that the Knicks 1027 00:46:33,840 --> 00:46:36,360 Speaker 3: and Raptors are also the league's only two teams to 1028 00:46:36,400 --> 00:46:39,640 Speaker 3: open a finals clinching game with five players it didn't draft. 1029 00:46:40,239 --> 00:46:44,120 Speaker 3: They're right about the Knicks. The Raptors started Siakam when 1030 00:46:44,160 --> 00:46:47,360 Speaker 3: they won the championship, so that's weird that they mentioned that. 1031 00:46:47,400 --> 00:46:51,160 Speaker 3: But the Knicks, just to correct Elias, the only team 1032 00:46:51,239 --> 00:46:54,040 Speaker 3: now to open a finals clinching game with five players 1033 00:46:54,440 --> 00:46:55,320 Speaker 3: it didn't draft. 1034 00:46:56,800 --> 00:46:58,080 Speaker 2: That's just kind of interesting. 1035 00:46:58,200 --> 00:47:00,719 Speaker 3: You know, hard and in Obi Towns, Michael Bridges and 1036 00:47:00,760 --> 00:47:02,600 Speaker 3: Jallen Browns, and they didn't draft. I don't know why 1037 00:47:02,640 --> 00:47:06,279 Speaker 3: they included the Raptors who ran out. Kyle Lowry, didn't draft, 1038 00:47:06,360 --> 00:47:08,879 Speaker 3: Kawi Leonard, didn't draft, Marcus sol Danny Green didn't draft. 1039 00:47:08,880 --> 00:47:12,480 Speaker 3: But Pascal Siakam also out there, dropping twenty six in 1040 00:47:12,520 --> 00:47:13,399 Speaker 3: the clinching game. 1041 00:47:13,840 --> 00:47:14,560 Speaker 1: I don't want to lie. 1042 00:47:16,239 --> 00:47:18,120 Speaker 2: That was his. That was their draft pick. 1043 00:47:18,120 --> 00:47:21,919 Speaker 3: And it wasn't a Oh another team drafted that guy 1044 00:47:21,960 --> 00:47:23,720 Speaker 3: and traded him immediately to the Raptors. 1045 00:47:23,960 --> 00:47:25,080 Speaker 2: That wasn't one of those either. 1046 00:47:26,280 --> 00:47:28,319 Speaker 1: The Knicks first team to win both the NBA Cup 1047 00:47:28,360 --> 00:47:32,320 Speaker 1: and NBA Championship, either in the same season or overall. 1048 00:47:32,360 --> 00:47:34,840 Speaker 1: Now we haven't had long, but they are the first. 1049 00:47:35,239 --> 00:47:38,480 Speaker 1: Uh and my favorite part of them getting the double 1050 00:47:38,560 --> 00:47:40,759 Speaker 1: or whatever we're calling this. We came up with some 1051 00:47:40,840 --> 00:47:42,520 Speaker 1: of those silly names. I can't even remember them. But 1052 00:47:43,000 --> 00:47:45,160 Speaker 1: New York trailed the Spurs by double digits in the 1053 00:47:45,239 --> 00:47:47,280 Speaker 1: NBA Cup and came back to it. What a surprise, 1054 00:47:47,440 --> 00:47:51,480 Speaker 1: Jesus man. They were telling us, remember this, we remember 1055 00:47:51,520 --> 00:47:53,200 Speaker 1: this here in Vegas because we're going to do this 1056 00:47:53,280 --> 00:47:56,200 Speaker 1: when we play in the finals. And they did it 1057 00:47:56,280 --> 00:47:58,560 Speaker 1: well four out of five times. Yeah, they did it 1058 00:47:58,600 --> 00:47:59,960 Speaker 1: every time, but four and a five times. 1059 00:48:00,120 --> 00:48:02,799 Speaker 4: Yeah, they could have maybe won three as well if 1060 00:48:02,840 --> 00:48:05,120 Speaker 4: there was another minute attacked on there. But I guess, 1061 00:48:05,200 --> 00:48:08,239 Speaker 4: I guess Jimmy was cooking. He said, we're gonna make 1062 00:48:08,239 --> 00:48:10,000 Speaker 4: it to the finals and we should win. He said, 1063 00:48:10,000 --> 00:48:12,719 Speaker 4: I'm not hanging up the NBA Cup banner because it's 1064 00:48:12,719 --> 00:48:14,000 Speaker 4: not the banner that we want. 1065 00:48:14,120 --> 00:48:16,680 Speaker 3: Yeah, And he was asked about that by Ernie Johnson 1066 00:48:16,719 --> 00:48:19,920 Speaker 3: post game, and he didn't refer to that answer like that. 1067 00:48:19,920 --> 00:48:20,399 Speaker 2: That was good. 1068 00:48:20,480 --> 00:48:21,040 Speaker 1: Yeah, you're right. 1069 00:48:21,120 --> 00:48:22,640 Speaker 2: Good. He didn't start saying. 1070 00:48:22,560 --> 00:48:24,399 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, this as well, who we were the last 1071 00:48:24,440 --> 00:48:25,399 Speaker 1: ten years in black blah. 1072 00:48:26,400 --> 00:48:27,879 Speaker 3: Yeah, he just gave it to New York and got 1073 00:48:27,920 --> 00:48:30,719 Speaker 3: the heck off. That's yeah, started Yellen and that was good. 1074 00:48:30,800 --> 00:48:34,120 Speaker 4: Any other notes, Sidney Sweeney is a Knicks fan now 1075 00:48:34,320 --> 00:48:40,360 Speaker 4: apparently I can't believe her dad, Sean would allow that. Wow, 1076 00:48:42,960 --> 00:48:45,000 Speaker 4: if we're being honest, if you look at Sean Sweeney, 1077 00:48:45,160 --> 00:48:50,160 Speaker 4: he could be Sidney Sweeney's dad. Yeah, I'd love to 1078 00:48:50,160 --> 00:48:53,880 Speaker 4: see her try a chipmunk face like he has done. 1079 00:48:54,239 --> 00:48:56,480 Speaker 4: And then I saw Tim Shallamy was celebrating in the 1080 00:48:56,520 --> 00:48:59,120 Speaker 4: locker room with the Knicks, and he was getting champagne 1081 00:48:59,120 --> 00:49:01,719 Speaker 4: in his eyes and he said, usually I have. 1082 00:49:01,680 --> 00:49:03,680 Speaker 1: A stunt double do this for me. It's like I'm 1083 00:49:03,800 --> 00:49:08,880 Speaker 1: an athlete. I don't have an athlete's eyes. Well, did 1084 00:49:08,880 --> 00:49:11,600 Speaker 1: you see what Ben Stiller was walking around with? I 1085 00:49:11,640 --> 00:49:15,080 Speaker 1: guess he must have asked, yeah, for Mike Brown's whiteboard? 1086 00:49:15,160 --> 00:49:17,600 Speaker 1: Did I have that? He was just walking around with 1087 00:49:17,600 --> 00:49:20,560 Speaker 1: the whiteboard the entire time. But pretty funny to see, 1088 00:49:20,560 --> 00:49:21,920 Speaker 1: like at least I don't know if I don't know if 1089 00:49:21,960 --> 00:49:24,200 Speaker 1: Charlamy did. I assume so, But I saw Ben Stiller. 1090 00:49:24,680 --> 00:49:26,600 Speaker 1: You know how they always do like the room where 1091 00:49:26,600 --> 00:49:28,480 Speaker 1: like come on in take photos with the Larry O'Brian. 1092 00:49:28,560 --> 00:49:30,120 Speaker 1: They get everybody in there, all the players, all the 1093 00:49:30,160 --> 00:49:32,400 Speaker 1: family members and all that. But I saw Ben Stiller 1094 00:49:33,280 --> 00:49:36,280 Speaker 1: taking a photo. I'm sure there's gotta be one Spike, 1095 00:49:36,719 --> 00:49:41,080 Speaker 1: I assume, and Shalloway and all these diehard Knicks fans, 1096 00:49:41,160 --> 00:49:42,200 Speaker 1: John to Turo and all that. 1097 00:49:42,280 --> 00:49:45,880 Speaker 4: So yeah, yeah, I saw a photo of Toturo and Spike, 1098 00:49:46,000 --> 00:49:49,400 Speaker 4: Lee and John Carlo Esposito all together doing a Do 1099 00:49:49,520 --> 00:49:52,920 Speaker 4: the Right Thing reunion Like that was cool.

We got shows to do and 1132 00:51:16,120 --> 00:51:20,359 Speaker 1: the basketball is done. Yes, it's true, unfortunately zero games left. 1133 00:51:20,400 --> 00:51:22,920 Speaker 1: That part, that part is sad.

Yeah, yeah, Adam, that 1135 00:51:26,840 --> 00:51:27,480 Speaker 1: was awesome. 1136 00:51:28,080 --> 00:51:30,920 Speaker 3: Adam is sad about that that we don't have a 1137 00:51:30,960 --> 00:51:35,640 Speaker 3: game on Friday Night, was it Friday night, Tuesday and Friday. Yeah, 1138 00:51:35,960 --> 00:51:38,640 Speaker 3: that which would lead right into the draft on Tuesday. 1139 00:51:38,760 --> 00:51:42,160 Speaker 3: That would be ideal for the NBA front office. But yeah, 1140 00:51:42,320 --> 00:51:44,360 Speaker 3: we'll make it happen here on no dounks. 1141 00:51:44,640 --> 00:51:48,560 Speaker 1: Some shows talking about a lot coming, oh boy, whole 1142 00:51:48,600 --> 00:51:49,640 Speaker 1: lot draft stuff. 1143 00:51:49,760 --> 00:51:53,480 Speaker 3: Yeah stuff, No doubt that three team deal potentially. 1144 00:51:53,520 --> 00:51:56,480 Speaker 1: Save it, save it.

And we've 1150 00:52:14,360 --> 00:52:20,160 Speaker 1: had some beauties already. That USA midfielder uh Gio Rena, 1151 00:52:20,520 --> 00:52:24,520 Speaker 1: the Travella beautiful. It was a nice goal. Spectacular goal 1152 00:52:24,680 --> 00:52:28,520 Speaker 1: to cap off the dominant American win. That's the outside 1153 00:52:28,520 --> 00:52:29,600 Speaker 1: of the boot type of shot. 1154 00:52:29,680 --> 00:52:30,760 Speaker 2: It was always looked badass. 1155 00:52:31,360 --> 00:52:34,880 Speaker 1: That was nice.
