Speaker 2: exclusively on Peacock Play of the Day, stat of the Day,
Speaker 2: poll question All of that forthcoming. Mike Floria will join
Speaker 2: us here in a moment. The possibility that Tom Brady
Speaker 2: is in the on deck circle ready to come in
Speaker 2: and rescue the Las Vegas Raiders from themselves and Jimmy Garoppolo. Also,
Speaker 2: DeAndre Hopkins has been released. Cardinals are tanking and doing
Speaker 2: a good job of it, and ere is DeAndre Hopkins
Speaker 2: going to end up eight seven to seven to three
Speaker 2: DP show email adw Sdpatdanpatrick dot Com, Twitter handle it
Speaker 2: D show me say good morning. If you're chatting on
Speaker 2: chat Row, those watching on Peacock, our streaming partner, download
Speaker 2: the appen our radio affiliates around the country. It wasn't pretty,
Speaker 2: but it was over quickly. There was no Game six
Speaker 2: drama in Game seven last night, as the Miami Heat
Speaker 2: pushed aside the Boston Celtics and they head to Denver
Speaker 2: for the finals. Golden Knights they rolled the Stars. They're
Speaker 2: going to the Stanley Cup final versus the Panthers. No NBA,
Speaker 2: no NHL tonight. Reggie Miller will join us tomorrow. He's
Speaker 2: traveling today. Seventy six Ers hired Nick Nurse, and that
Speaker 2: seems like a pretty good hire. Felt like Nick Nurse
Speaker 2: had his choice. I don't know this officially, and I've
Speaker 2: tried to see if woj Or Shams is reported on anything.
Speaker 3: Did Nick Nurse have his choice?
Speaker 2: So the Suns, the Bucks and the seventy six ers,
Speaker 2: And if he did, it would be interesting that he
Speaker 2: chose the seventy six ers. And did he choose it
Speaker 2: because of Joe el Embiid and Tyrese MAXI what's James
Speaker 2: Harden going to do? Also, Phoenix still open, Milwaukee's still open,
Speaker 2: and these are great jobs because you get to work
Speaker 2: with talented players. Now, Phoenix, you're gonna be limited because
Speaker 2: they traded resources and how much can you stockpile that
Speaker 2: roster there? Chris Paul's situation Kevin Durant is what thirty four,
Speaker 2: Devin Booker has never been better. And then you have
Speaker 2: Milwaukee that's still a great lineup there, and you got
Speaker 2: the Greek Freak. These jobs don't normally come open, and
Speaker 2: if you have a job like this, it's one of
Speaker 2: those jobs that may come open. And this was surprising
Speaker 2: here in the offseason, but Nick Nurse leaving Toronto and
Speaker 2: going to the Philadelphia seventy six ers. All right, Seaton
Speaker 2: Poll question results from the first hour, and we're.
Speaker 1: Going to go with an hour two. Dan hour one,
Speaker 1: we put up the thought of breaking up Jason Tatum
Speaker 1: and Jaylen Brown is legitimate, ludicrous. Right now, seventy two
Speaker 1: percent of the audience are saying legitimate. Yeah, I don't
Speaker 1: know if you can. I'm still young.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I was Jalen Brown twenty five, twenty six now
Speaker 2: because he was second team All NBA. Now he gets
Speaker 2: the Supermax and that has nothing to do with Max Kellerman.
Speaker 2: He is getting five years, two hundred and ninety five million,
Speaker 2: I think is what it is.
Speaker 3: So he's eligible for the Supermax ouch.
Speaker 1: Are they being that pair being criticized too heavily for
Speaker 1: the series?
Speaker 2: Well, I just don't think they work together. I mean,
Speaker 2: they're good together, but they don't compliment each other. I
Speaker 2: think that's the key is I'm looking at my two stars,
Speaker 2: and it feels like Jason Tatum's the star. Jylen Brown
Speaker 2: needs to compliment Jason Tatum, and I doesn't feel like
Speaker 2: he does. You look at Jamal Murray and Joker, they
Speaker 2: compliment each other. I think when you have you know,
Speaker 2: Shaq and Kobe complimented each other. Sort of they were different,
Speaker 2: but you know they worked there for a while dominating performance.
Speaker 2: It felt like Pippin and Jordan. You know, they sort
Speaker 2: of compliment each other. Although Scotty's not complimenting Mike. Now
Speaker 2: we'll talk about that coming up a little bit, that Scotty.
Speaker 1: Scotty just won't let it go. You won't let it go.
Speaker 2: Called Michael horrible basketball player when he first started, and
Speaker 2: then he needed Scotty to win championships, which technically is true.
Speaker 2: But to call Michael horrible when he played for the Bulls.
Speaker 1: A little strong it is. It's a little strong, yeah.
Speaker 2: But in fairness to Scotty, fairness to Scotty, it's always
Speaker 2: Jordan's Bulls. It's Shaq and Kobe's Lakers, even the Big
Speaker 2: Three in Boston or the other Big three with Bird,
Speaker 2: you know, McHale and Parrish, the bad boy Pistons.
Speaker 1: Scotty gets left out.
Speaker 2: And when you think about Jenobilei and Parker got included
Speaker 2: more with Duncan and Robinson than what you have here
Speaker 2: with Scotty.
Speaker 1: We'll talk a little bit more about that.
Speaker 2: I wanted to chat with Mike Florio, Pro Football Talk
Speaker 2: Live co host NBC Football Night in America. Anytime Tom
Speaker 2: Brady's name comes up, it's the reason to have Florio on.
Speaker 2: I thought, Okay, maybe Tom he's going to be a
Speaker 2: minority owner of the Las Vegas Raiders, and then Jimmy
Speaker 2: Garoppolo had off season surgery and now feels like maybe
Speaker 2: Tom's in the on deck circle playing for the Raiders. Mike,
Speaker 2: who is owed a pie to the face because he
Speaker 2: did say that Tom Brady was going to go to
Speaker 2: the forty nine ers. We're never going to let it
Speaker 2: go Mike, until you do it.
Speaker 4: I need to do it.
Speaker 5: I need to do it.
Speaker 4: I need to figure out how best to do it,
Speaker 4: where to get the pie.
Speaker 3: Oh, your wife can do it, Mike.
Speaker 4: I think we agreed to lemon merangue because it's particularly acidic. Yeah,
Speaker 4: and it will irritate it.
Speaker 2: It'll burn your face, Yes, it'll burn your face. All right,
Speaker 2: help us understand exactly what's going on with the Raiders.
Speaker 4: Well, last week it was reported, originally by The Athletic
Speaker 4: that Jimmy Garoppolo had surgery on his foot. And you know,
Speaker 4: things move pretty fast. Days become of week's become months.
Speaker 4: I'm thinking, wait a minute, he had that foot injury
Speaker 4: in December. Did he not have surgery? Then you go
Speaker 4: back and look, well, we didn't have surgery. Then well,
Speaker 4: wait a minute, what why did he have surgery? Then
Speaker 4: that he's having surgery in March and he had the
Speaker 4: surgery after he signed with the Raiders. And then I remembered, well,
Speaker 4: there was a weird delay in his press conference, had
Speaker 4: everybody in the building, they send everybody home, and the
Speaker 4: next day he acts like, no big deal, nothing to
Speaker 4: see here. That should be the NFL's new slogan, by
Speaker 4: the way, nothing to see here, because we hear that
Speaker 4: all the time. I got the contract on Saturday night
Speaker 4: and I read the contract and I was stunned. Lengthy
Speaker 4: addendum G for garoppolo injury waiver that deals with the foot.
Speaker 4: They took away his signing bonus over he was due
Speaker 4: to make eleven point twenty five million the moment he
Speaker 4: signed unto the contract they negotiated before they did the physical.
Speaker 4: Did the physical, he failed the physical, had to go
Speaker 4: get surgery, And the way the contracts are written, if
Speaker 4: this surgery doesn't work, they never pay him a penny
Speaker 4: and their fallback is Brian Hoyer and rookie Aidan O'Connell.
Speaker 4: It's just a weird situation, Dan, and I wonder how
Speaker 4: it was all kept secret and why it was all
Speaker 4: kept secret. It makes no one look good at all.
Speaker 4: It makes Garoppolo look like maybe he was hiding something.
Speaker 4: It makes the Raiders look negligent to not have an
Speaker 4: alternative plan. And that's what brings Brady right to the
Speaker 4: front burner because he's becoming a partial owner of the
Speaker 4: very team that could be without a proven quarterback when Week.
Speaker 1: One rolls around.
Speaker 2: Okay, can he play? How would Brady be eligible to play?
Speaker 4: And I've seen this from multiple different reports, most recently
Speaker 4: documented by the Las Vegas Reviewed Journal. For him to
Speaker 4: become a player, if he's an owner, there has to
Speaker 4: be a unanimous vote of all owners and that seems
Speaker 4: a little harsh to me, and I find it out.
Speaker 4: Isn't it in these guys interest to have Brady on
Speaker 4: the field. The guy makes money for everyone. But I
Speaker 4: had someone explain it to me over the weekend. Here's
Speaker 4: the problem. You have a guy who's in the building.
Speaker 4: You have a guy who gots access to practice, to meetings,
Speaker 4: to the playbooks, to the game plans. It's like having
Speaker 4: an extra guy on the roster. There's something that isn't
Speaker 4: fair about it. From a competitive standpoint, you have this
Speaker 4: guy's your emergency option, and he's already up to speed
Speaker 4: on everything. It's just a matter of putting him in
Speaker 4: a helmet and a uniform and putting him on the field.
Speaker 4: So if it's going to take a thirty two tozhering vote, Dan,
Speaker 4: my guess is there's gonna be teams that say no, no, no,
Speaker 4: especially in the AFC West. Because the Broncos tried to
Speaker 4: do this, who compete Obviously with the Raiders. They tried
Speaker 4: to do it when they had that game during the
Speaker 4: pandemic where they had none of their quarterbacks available and
Speaker 4: they'd go with the receiver Kendall Hinton. They had a
Speaker 4: couple of assistant coach is they wanted to put on
Speaker 4: the roster in the league said no, can't do it.
Speaker 4: Same idea. It's like having extra guys on your team
Speaker 4: because they know what's going on. So if he goes
Speaker 4: through with this, the deal's done with Mark Davis just
Speaker 4: needs to be approved. Unless he walks it back, he's
Speaker 4: not going to be able, I believe, to play for
Speaker 4: the Raiders and be a minority owner of the Raiders.
Speaker 2: Okay, so he could not become the minority owner a
Speaker 2: minority owner, but he could just postpone that.
Speaker 4: I mean, why not? And that's the thing. This is
Speaker 4: the ultimate Cooper get off the pot moment for Brady.
Speaker 4: I mean, if you're thinking about playing, pull the plug
Speaker 4: on this ownership or delay it by a year. It's
Speaker 4: an easy fix. And Dan, my understanding is simple. And
Speaker 4: this is a question I asked somebody who's in a
Speaker 4: position to know what Brady's up to after he had
Speaker 4: that appearance in Miami several weeks back, and he was asked,
Speaker 4: is there any chance you're going to be the quarterback
Speaker 4: of our local team? And instead of saying, well, your
Speaker 4: local team has a quarterback or no, I'm retired, he
Speaker 4: said just enough, just enough to stoke interest. Dner standing
Speaker 4: is he's done. But he loves being the center of attention.
Speaker 4: He loves being talked about. He loves it when his
Speaker 4: name comes up, and I find that refreshing. It's good
Speaker 4: to know that there's like an actual human in there
Speaker 4: somewhere that is driven by the same petty crap the
Speaker 4: rest of us are. So that's good. But so, you know, so,
Speaker 4: I think he loves it. But at the end of
Speaker 4: the day, he's not gonna.
Speaker 2: Fly Arizona Cardinals. Are they on the clock for a
Speaker 2: next year's draft?
Speaker 4: Well, they haven't, actually, and this is potentially intriguing. Today
Speaker 4: he hasn't DeAndre Hopkins hasn't officially been released yet. There's
Speaker 4: still a chance very slim, very slim. But we've seen
Speaker 4: it before where a team says, hey, we're releasing so
Speaker 4: and so, and then at the very last minute, there's
Speaker 4: a trade that's done. I don't think that's going to happen.
Speaker 4: But the key piece of evidence for me is that
Speaker 4: the Cardinals could if they wanted to wait until Friday
Speaker 4: to cut DeAndre Hopkins. If they wait until Friday, they
Speaker 4: split the twenty two point six million dollar cap charge
Speaker 4: over two years, they basically create eleven point three million
Speaker 4: in cap space this year. They're not doing that. They
Speaker 4: don't want to do that. They don't want to have
Speaker 4: that money on the books. They don't even want to
Speaker 4: be in position where if somebody drops out of the
Speaker 4: sky and we see veterans get cut all the time,
Speaker 4: somebody we didn't expect, we could get that guy and
Speaker 4: make our team better. Well now they can say, sorry,
Speaker 4: we don't have the cap space to do it, because
Speaker 4: they've deliberately pushed it to next year. They're pushing it
Speaker 4: to next year. They don't care about this year. It's
Speaker 4: not a surprise, but it's a tangible piece of evidence
Speaker 4: as to what we already think. The Cardinals are a
Speaker 4: team that isn't going to try to compete, a team
Speaker 4: that maybe will position itself to have the number one
Speaker 4: overall pick in the draft, and the Houston Texans' first
Speaker 4: round pick wherever they land, and it feels like they're in.
Speaker 4: Whether you call it rebuilding, remodeling, or flat out tanking.
Speaker 4: The Cardinals don't care about.
Speaker 1: This season, all right.
Speaker 2: One of the Dane's has a double or nothing. I
Speaker 2: bet for you, Mike, Okay, yes, Pony, Yeah.
Speaker 6: I had the initial bet with Florio that got him
Speaker 6: the pie with the forty nine Ers. So Florio, Mike,
Speaker 6: I'm going to try to get you out of this
Speaker 6: because I know you're protecting the hair, which I respect.
Speaker 1: Double or nothing.
Speaker 6: You have to tell me who the starting quarterback Week one,
Speaker 6: first snap is for both the Raiders and the forty
Speaker 6: nine Ers.
Speaker 3: If you get both right, you're out.
Speaker 4: Wow Wow. But if I'm wrong, I get two pies.
Speaker 1: Two pies.
Speaker 3: Did you want to roll the dice on that, Mike, Well.
Speaker 4: What the hell? Since I've avoided one pie, I can
Speaker 4: avoid two.
Speaker 5: So let's go.
Speaker 4: Let's go. Even though I'm intrigued and fascinated by the story,
Speaker 4: I do think it will be Jimmy Garoppolo for the
Speaker 4: Raiders week one. I think they'll get him ready to
Speaker 4: go week one, and I believe the week one quarterback
Speaker 4: for the San Francisco forty Niners. I'm not going to
Speaker 4: go Chalker. I'm gonna make it interesting. I'm gonna go
Speaker 4: ahead and accept the pie. I will say, just for
Speaker 4: the interest of entertainment, that the Week one starting quarterback
Speaker 4: for the forty nine Ers will be Sam darn.
Speaker 2: Boo Mike Florio Pro Football surpie is coming or not?
Speaker 2: Pro Football Talk Live co host, Thank you, Mike.
Speaker 4: See you guys have a good day.
Speaker 6: Yea.
Speaker 2: I saw there was a story where somebody in San
Speaker 2: Francisco said that Rich Eisen had inside information or a
Speaker 2: source with the Niners, because Rich had the audacity to
Speaker 2: say you could see brock Purty as the starter and
Speaker 2: the Niners would then trade away Trey Lance. And I went, Okay,
Speaker 2: where's the insider information there that can't if brock Purty
Speaker 2: is healthy ready to play, Sam Darnald is going to
Speaker 2: be my backup quarterback. I would think maybe you could
Speaker 2: recoup what you gave up to get Trey Lance. Uh.
Speaker 2: Seems logical to me. If you have an insider with
Speaker 2: the Niners, then the insider is going to give you
Speaker 2: the time frame for brock perty or the insider is
Speaker 2: going to say Sam Darnald is going to be our
Speaker 2: backup quarterback, but might don't roll out him being the
Speaker 2: starting quarterback. That to me would be hey, you got
Speaker 2: a source there. I think Rich just said what was
Speaker 2: obvious here. If I've got Rock Perdy, I got a
Speaker 2: young quarterback, I got Sam Darnold, I don't need Trey Lance.
Speaker 2: Didn't seem like it was a big stretch there.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 6: Point, But for the Niners to get rid of Trey Lance,
Speaker 6: they need him to get in the game and play well.
Speaker 6: A La Garoppolo when Brady was suspended. Did he have
Speaker 6: two really nice.
Speaker 3: Games and two or three then he got hurt.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's what they need.
Speaker 6: They need Trey Lance two for whatever reason, get in
Speaker 6: the game and play well, and then they'll be a
Speaker 6: market for him.
Speaker 1: They have to keep them. Oh you do, I have
Speaker 1: no insight less than left.
Speaker 2: Yeah, but you might be accused of having insight if
Speaker 2: you say there's no way you get rid of Trey Lance.
Speaker 6: The Niners have all their quarterbacks are under contract, and
Speaker 6: they're not paying any of them any big money. They're
Speaker 6: in a weird position.
Speaker 1: Let's take a break. We'll check in with the Celtics.
Speaker 1: The White Mamba Brian Scalabrini.
Speaker 3: That's coming up next year.
Speaker 2: On The Dan Patrick Show, we had extra extra buns

Speaker 2: hold on for dear life, this is crazy.
Speaker 1: Wait, he's going seventy four miles an hour.
Speaker 6: Yeah, poems and they had like protective goggles and gloves on,
Speaker 6: had a scarf to protect them.
Speaker 2: The most points scored in game seven of a conference
Speaker 2: or NBA Finals by an undrafted player. The most scored
Speaker 2: in NBA history for a player who was not drafted.
Speaker 2: If you said calob Martin twenty eight points, you would
Speaker 2: be correct. Twenty six points last night. I don't know
Speaker 2: whose record he broke. Maybe we could find that out.
Speaker 2: Most points scored in a game seven by an under
Speaker 2: after player. Brian Scalabrini the White Mamba Celtics analyst NBC
Speaker 2: Sports Boston and was on that championship team in two
Speaker 2: thousand and eight.
Speaker 3: If I would have told.
Speaker 2: You after Game three you were getting to Game seven,
Speaker 2: you would have said what?
Speaker 9: And I believe you because this team is so up
Speaker 9: and down, the Celtic basketball team. Now, it's something happened
Speaker 9: this season where I got to the point where I
Speaker 9: just stopped guessing and I just say, well, they're going
Speaker 9: to have to show me what they're going to do today,
Speaker 9: because I just ran out of the patients of trying
Speaker 9: to say, like, all right, well they figured it out.
Speaker 9: Now they can build upon that. I really believe like this,
Speaker 9: the highs and lows of this team is unlike anything
Speaker 9: I've ever seen before.
Speaker 3: All right, when did you know you were in trouble?
Speaker 1: Last night?
Speaker 9: Probably after Derek White made that run in the third
Speaker 9: and I think Miami, speaking of Caleb Martin, he made
Speaker 9: two really timely shots and I'm saying, not going to
Speaker 9: win this game. I maybe got a glimmer of hope
Speaker 9: at the start of the fourth quarter when they ran
Speaker 9: a great play out of the out of the quarter
Speaker 9: and Tatum got a wide open layup and missed, and
Speaker 9: then they came down and hit a three. At that point,
Speaker 9: I knew we were in trouble.
Speaker 3: What's the biggest question heading into the off season.
Speaker 9: Probably Jalen Brown and you know, will will they offer
Speaker 9: him a super max contract?
Speaker 5: Will he will?
Speaker 9: I'm sure he'll sign it if they offer it to him.
Speaker 9: You know, last night, Tim von Temps asked a great
Speaker 9: question about Jalen Brown's future, and Jalen, you know, that's
Speaker 9: where you give like standard answer. I'm not really thinking
Speaker 9: about it right now. I don't I don't know what
Speaker 9: the future holds or I love this team. We've been
Speaker 9: so accomplished. He didn't give an answer that you would think,
Speaker 9: and he didn't say no. He said, I'm it's like,
Speaker 9: I'm trying to process all this, but I just I
Speaker 9: wonder what's gonna go on. There's been all these talks
Speaker 9: about in the past about those two guys. Then they're
Speaker 9: good then and things are going bad, they're not good.
Speaker 9: When things are going good, they're good. So I wonder
Speaker 9: where all that lies. You know this, uh, and I
Speaker 9: think it'll come right around July.
Speaker 2: But they don't compliment each other Normally when you have
Speaker 2: two All Stars there, you know, James Harden can compliment
Speaker 2: Joe l Embiid or Clay compliments Steph it feels.
Speaker 1: Like a joker.
Speaker 2: And Jamal Murray, these two players are very similar. Would
Speaker 2: you keep Jalen Brown?
Speaker 9: Well, Dan, there's a lot of truth to what you're saying.
Speaker 9: But also, I mean they've been to four conference finals
Speaker 9: in seven years.
Speaker 3: Would you keep Jalen Brown?
Speaker 9: Yeah, I mean I would. I'm not the one paying
Speaker 9: the bill, you know there they went way.
Speaker 3: Over to take money out of it. Right now, I know, yeah, Oh.
Speaker 5: Yeah, that's easy. Then that's easy.
Speaker 9: If it's not a if it's not a money things,
Speaker 9: it's a no brainer. But you know, like Celtics are
Speaker 9: into tax, they were into tax last year. If they
Speaker 9: signed in, they're going to be deep into the tax
Speaker 9: that theers are paying like eight dollars for every dollar
Speaker 9: they spend because they've been in the tax for eight
Speaker 9: straight years. Like that's a problem in the NBA.
Speaker 2: Yeah, But do you agree that they don't compliment each other.
Speaker 2: They basically are similar types of players.
Speaker 9: But the league now dan is a defensive versatility league
Speaker 9: and offensive versatil. It's a wing driven league. Now, you
Speaker 9: might be right, like Lebron and a d there's a
Speaker 9: there's a big and a wing. You know, jo kicch
Speaker 9: and and and Murray Butler and had a Bayou. You're
Speaker 9: right about that, But I think anybody in the NBA
Speaker 9: would take two versatile wings that could defend and rebound
Speaker 9: and they can handle and run pick and rolls. So
Speaker 9: in this day and age, I wish they played better together.
Speaker 9: But I'm not saying like it's a it's They've had
Speaker 9: a lot of success and they can continue to have success.
Speaker 1: But they don't they.
Speaker 3: Don't handle the ball well.
Speaker 9: Brian, only when they're spacing as a team is bad.
Speaker 9: And I think Dan instead of looking at it like
Speaker 9: they don't handle the ball well, I think they try
Speaker 9: to do too much at times. Tatum had the bad ankle.
Speaker 9: Jaylen Brown thought, I have to do more, and sometimes
Speaker 9: against Miami, you don't want to try to do more.
Speaker 9: You want to try to do less. You want to
Speaker 9: you want to take one trouble and move it and
Speaker 9: eventually wear them out. And they did it for three
Speaker 9: games to get back in this series. But this particular
Speaker 9: style of play always comes back to bite them when
Speaker 9: they're not making shots.
Speaker 2: Talking to Brian Scalabrini, the Boston Celtics analyst, Joe Mazzola's
Speaker 2: job safe.
Speaker 9: I would say he's I'll give you a sixty five
Speaker 9: seventy percent safe. I think there's a lot of things
Speaker 9: with the fact that he got thrust it into this.
Speaker 9: Like I heard, there might be a lot of guys
Speaker 9: leaving to go with ima Udoka, who hasn't hired really
Speaker 9: that many assistant coaches down in Houston, so they might
Speaker 9: get a new staff. They might have some guys at
Speaker 9: some former players and some former head coaches. I think,
Speaker 9: to be honest with you, Dan, to give him a
Speaker 9: fair shot, you've got to build a staff that that
Speaker 9: And I think these guys were great, but they lost
Speaker 9: David sttomar Are halfway through the season. Will Hardy they
Speaker 9: lost them last year. He made Doka, they lost them
Speaker 9: last year. David Stottamyer they lost this year. I just
Speaker 9: think you've got to put a great veteran staff around
Speaker 9: a first year coach.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I agree, you got to have that guy who
Speaker 2: has the experience. And you know, I thought what Spolster did,
Speaker 2: I don't you know, when we get into out coach,
Speaker 2: I think that there were times where he was far
Speaker 2: more tactical. Spolster is very underrated still, which is kind
Speaker 2: of amazing. I think he's a Hall of Fame head coach.
Speaker 2: But it felt like he was making the right moves
Speaker 2: for a team that shouldn't have won this Eastern Conference finals.
Speaker 5: No.
Speaker 9: No, I mean, you can make an argument, Dan that
Speaker 9: they shouldn't even have been here. But you know, I
Speaker 9: think he coaches the guys hard. Now, this is the
Speaker 9: thing that's really interesting about Sposter. All we hear nowadays
Speaker 9: players league players, league players, League players dictate this.
Speaker 5: Players dictate that he can't.
Speaker 9: Coach him too hard, like that's not what you want
Speaker 9: to do with the superstar player, except for Eric Spostra
Speaker 9: because he has backing from pat Riley. So I give
Speaker 9: him all the credit in the world. I think he's
Speaker 9: a brilliant coach. And I also give him all the
Speaker 9: credit in the world because I grew up where coaches
Speaker 9: yelled at us all the time, Like that's just the
Speaker 9: generation that I played in. So I think that he
Speaker 9: has a huge advantage knowing that he could get into
Speaker 9: guys and they might bark back, but he barks back
Speaker 9: and it's never.
Speaker 5: Oh my god, he lost the locker room.
Speaker 9: No one ever says Eric Boster lost the locker room
Speaker 9: or he pushes them too hard. But Eric Bosher will
Speaker 9: also say, well, we do ain't for everybody, and it
Speaker 9: just works for this particular group.
Speaker 3: If I said you could have Jimmy Butler Jason Tatum.
Speaker 5: I'm taking Tatum Man.
Speaker 9: I love Jimmy Butler, though I do love Jimmy, but
Speaker 9: I love his couch. He the gamer, but you go
Speaker 9: to the guy that has the talent.
Speaker 3: What was it like right before tip off?
Speaker 5: Oh my gosh, I've been in that building a lot.
Speaker 9: I think the fact that they came back from down
Speaker 9: three made the biggest difference.
Speaker 5: That crowd was loaded, they were ready. Paul Pierce was
Speaker 5: getting them hyped up.
Speaker 9: They respond to the old guy, the old Celtics more
Speaker 9: than any play type been in other places. You know,
Speaker 9: you go to the other places, they show the guy,
Speaker 9: he waves and everyone you know gives it a little
Speaker 9: bit of a cheer man. The crowd was amazing, and
Speaker 9: but you know what, it was amazing. In Game five
Speaker 9: against Philly they had a dud. It was amazing. In
Speaker 9: Game five against Atlanta, it.
Speaker 5: Was a dud. It was amazing.
Speaker 9: Last year against the Golden State Warriors in game six
Speaker 9: it was a dud. A lot of times this group
Speaker 9: for whatever reason, and I don't I'm not going to
Speaker 9: get into the generational thing or the personality thing, but
Speaker 9: when the crowd is unbelievable, a lot of times this
Speaker 9: group has swung and missed.
Speaker 2: I don't understand this logic. You're of the new age.
Speaker 2: You're shooting threes and you're getting down by double digits,
Speaker 2: so you continue to shoot threes and you have no
Speaker 2: chance of coming back. Is there any logic to getting
Speaker 2: a two or going to the hoop, maybe getting a
Speaker 2: foul on. Somebody, help me understand a team that goes
Speaker 2: nine for forty two and that's your that's your offensive
Speaker 2: game plan.
Speaker 5: Yeah, you know what, I don't.
Speaker 9: I've had conversations with Joe Missoula about it, and by
Speaker 9: the way, he's not He's not that the way that
Speaker 9: he's abrasive with the media.
Speaker 5: He's not that way, and just outside of that.
Speaker 9: But I've had conversations about it and I and I
Speaker 9: really believe like when the Celtics drive into the teeth
Speaker 9: of the defense and get threes, they're different threes, but
Speaker 9: you know a lot of times they settle for that
Speaker 9: one past shot.
Speaker 5: They want to They want to take the first shot.
Speaker 9: That's what they say. If it shots open, we want
Speaker 9: to take it, so you can't. I think I think
Speaker 9: basketball is more art and science. I think it's more
Speaker 9: like there's a you know, if if me and you
Speaker 9: were playing together Dan and I threw it to you
Speaker 9: and he threw it back to me, and I drove
Speaker 9: and I kicked it to you, I feel like you
Speaker 9: have a better chance of making that shot because you've
Speaker 9: got involved into the game. But you know, that's not
Speaker 9: their philosophy. That's the way they want to play. They
Speaker 9: think that the threes will eventually all balance out. But
Speaker 9: in the playoffs, you can get down oh three, you
Speaker 9: can come back, and then you can lose a game seven,
Speaker 9: you know, by you know, double digits, and never come
Speaker 9: back from it.
Speaker 5: Because relying on that three.
Speaker 2: Well, that's why the Nuggets stand out. The Nuggets will
Speaker 2: make an extra pass. If you watch them play, They're
Speaker 2: going to always make one more pass, and not many
Speaker 2: teams do that. So you're saying to that, yes, and
Speaker 2: I think, well, here they are in the NBA Finals.
Speaker 2: You need to do that because you might have a
Speaker 2: good shot when I can get a great shot by somebody,
Speaker 2: and if you're trusting your team and everybody gets involved,
Speaker 2: that's why Butler usually gets everybody involved and then he
Speaker 2: takes over later in the game. Joker gets everybody involved
Speaker 2: and then he takes over, usually later in the game.
Speaker 2: And I think that's that's the tribute to great a
Speaker 2: great team player, understanding you get gone, I'll get gone,
Speaker 2: and then we'll win this thing.
Speaker 9: Dan, no question about it. Even last year the Golden
Speaker 9: State Warriors passed the ball so much more last year
Speaker 9: than they did this year. Like this year we saw
Speaker 9: Jordan Poole, Steph Curry, Clay Thompson dribbling around looking for
Speaker 9: their own shot.
Speaker 5: Like I don't understand.
Speaker 9: It's why the NBA doesn't adapt more towards bald movement.
Speaker 5: Bald movement is the key.
Speaker 9: The defenses are so sophisticated, guys are so good, they
Speaker 9: no tendencies. One thing you can't guard against is that
Speaker 9: is that bald movement and not just passing the ball
Speaker 9: around the perimeter, getting to the tee to the defense,
Speaker 9: drawing of people kicking it out and then what you said,
Speaker 9: extra past who doesn't love playing basketball like that?
Speaker 5: So I think the teams.
Speaker 9: That passed the best in the playoffs are the teams
Speaker 9: that are in the finals. And I thought last year
Speaker 9: the teams that played the best ball movement. I would
Speaker 9: think Miami Miami last year was better at moving the
Speaker 9: ball than the Celtics were last year, but Celtic's defense
Speaker 9: was better. But typically the ball, the team that moves
Speaker 9: the basketball to most is a team that's going to
Speaker 9: end up going to the finals and have a tremendous
Speaker 9: amount of success.
Speaker 3: Did you ever go as Larry Bird for Halloween.
Speaker 5: Nah. I went as a Kurt Rambis one time. That
Speaker 5: was good.
Speaker 2: Okay, all you need is the glasses in the Lakers jersey.
Speaker 5: Yeah, and he taped them. He had that tape. I
Speaker 5: had a tape.
Speaker 9: I don't know if that if he broke him, why
Speaker 9: he had tape there, But I taped him.
Speaker 5: So I did that. I had a wig and every
Speaker 5: day with a great look.
Speaker 2: Good to talk to you, enjoy the off season, Thanks
Speaker 2: for joining us.
Speaker 5: Got a dance here.
Speaker 2: That's Brian Scalabrini, the White Mama Celtics analyst, NBC Sports sponsor.
Speaker 2: Actually I used to own a pair of those Kurt
Speaker 2: Rambis glasses and it looked like tape, but it was
Speaker 2: actually rubber. So it gave you a cushion on the
Speaker 2: bridge of your nose.
Speaker 6: It stuck better when you're sweating.
Speaker 2: Yeah, but it was a cushion in case, you know,
Speaker 2: you got hit. And I had a pair of those
Speaker 2: Kurt Rambas glasses. Better shooter than Rambas. Not as tough
Speaker 2: as Rambas, of course.
Speaker 4: Uh.
Speaker 1: Jeff in Detroit, Hi, Jeff, what's on your mind today?
Speaker 10: Hey?
Speaker 9: What up?
Speaker 5: Door?
Speaker 10: One time for chat row, Yeah, you just come across
Speaker 10: those guys with those Kurt Rambas glasses. You were in
Speaker 10: for a defensive battle, dude, for real on the court, man, Hey,
Speaker 10: that's the worst of the weekend, my worst. I'm gonna
Speaker 10: start off with Jason Tatum rolling his ankle, kind of
Speaker 10: feel like we got cheated. I wish it wouldn't have happened, man,
Speaker 10: but hey, it happens, it happens. And also Brown's eight turnovers,
Speaker 10: the guy just kept giving the ball up. My best
Speaker 10: is gonna be Miami playing as a squad. They really
Speaker 10: came out and they did what they were supposed to do.
Speaker 10: I mean, coming from number eight doing showing a resiliency
Speaker 10: that they had was something else. And I have two
Speaker 10: questions for you, well, he kind of asked one of
Speaker 10: them with a Scalabrini interview. Did Joe Mizzoula keep his job?
Speaker 10: And now I'm trying to wonder because he didn't make
Speaker 10: the adjustments that he should have made at the end
Speaker 10: of the game. And like you said, they shot themselves
Speaker 10: out the game or so into it, and out of
Speaker 10: this entire season, out of the playoff season. This has
Speaker 10: been kind of odd, man. It's been really weird. What
Speaker 10: would you what would be your take away from it?
Speaker 10: Because you know, Giannis wasn't in there. You know, the
Speaker 10: teams that we thought were going to be in aren't there.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think you had injuries, but there was no consistency.
Speaker 2: I think Denver was consistent from start to finish. All
Speaker 2: the other teams you weren't quite sure. I mean, go
Speaker 2: back to Golden State. Just start before the season started.
Speaker 2: What happened, you know with the punch from Draymond Green
Speaker 2: and Jordan Poole, they were never the same. Steve Kerr
Speaker 2: finally admitted that the Lakers you weren't quite sure were
Speaker 2: they going to even get into the playing game? MENO, okay,
Speaker 2: but what happens when they get in the big spotlight there?
Speaker 3: So just start with those things.
Speaker 2: Memphis with John Morant, these are teams that were supposed
Speaker 2: to compete.
Speaker 3: Phoenix makes the.
Speaker 2: Trade for Kevin Durant didn't work out, they fire their
Speaker 2: head coach. In the East Miami, they underachieved, so they
Speaker 2: became an eighth seed and they probably you know, shouldn't
Speaker 2: even have been in after the play in games, but
Speaker 2: they got in. And that's as a coach or a
Speaker 2: player just get in and you know they were able
Speaker 2: to take advantage. Milwaukee didn't have Giannis for a couple
Speaker 2: of games there. But you know, you're beating teams that
Speaker 2: should you have been beating.
Speaker 1: And it's weird.
Speaker 2: We always think, well, you got more talent, but talent
Speaker 2: doesn't always win. It's do you understand how to use
Speaker 2: that talent when you're using that talent? What happens when
Speaker 2: their talent is better than yours? Making adjustments there. But
Speaker 2: I think the NBA was very up and down this
Speaker 2: year trying to figure out who was I said all
Speaker 2: year long with Boston, I don't know how good they
Speaker 2: are and I don't know how bad they are, but
Speaker 2: they can be both in the same game.
Speaker 1: Yeah. See, they just seem to do everything with a shrug.
Speaker 1: The Celtics meaning they're like like, hey, what happened tonight?
Speaker 1: You guys lost Game seven at home? Like, yeah, they
Speaker 1: just don't played better than us. Yeah, It's like there's
Speaker 1: got to be a little more to it than just
Speaker 1: like oh yeah, I mean they just they won, we didn't.
Speaker 2: Well, you need to have somebody on Boston adopt Jimmy
Speaker 2: Butler's attitude of we'll win, not Hey, if the shots
Speaker 2: fall or they didn't fall.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean they we just didn't make shots and
Speaker 1: they did.
Speaker 3: Yeah, poling, right.
Speaker 6: You could have a casual attitude when you've already won
Speaker 6: the Golden State Wars. And Steve Kerr when they lose,
Speaker 6: he like, yeah, that's fine, We're gonna win the next one.
Speaker 1: It'll be fine.
Speaker 6: But they've they've got a bunch of titles. You can't
Speaker 6: be casual when you've done nothing yet.
Speaker 1: Yeah, Mark.
Speaker 7: But if they have, if they adapted Jimmy Butler attitude
Speaker 7: in that sense, they got to every single they need
Speaker 7: somebody very Jimmy s where things aren't going well, what
Speaker 7: the bleep are you guys doing? You could see there's
Speaker 7: a Twitter video of Jimmy Butler kind of cursing Max
Speaker 7: Strow's Dunkian Robinson. He's cussing those guys out and they're
Speaker 7: not taking it personal, like I need to step my
Speaker 7: game up. And I think other teams that Jimmy Butler
Speaker 7: has been on, they're like, whoa, why.
Speaker 2: Are you not very nice? Hey, you're being mean to me.
Speaker 2: That's not nice, But Bunny, Jimmy Butler got his team.
Speaker 2: He didn't have his team in Minnesota. He didn't have
Speaker 2: it in Philadelphia. I'm not sure what happened in Chicago,
Speaker 2: but now he has his team and I think they're
Speaker 2: smart enough to understand. Spolstra and pat Riley. How do
Speaker 2: we get players who Jimmy Butler is going to make better?
Speaker 2: And when you think of a basketball organization, is there
Speaker 2: any other organization that makes their players better? And you
Speaker 2: have so you have consistency with pat Riley and Eric
Speaker 2: Spolstra that these players know that coach is going to
Speaker 2: be there because you know the president of the organization
Speaker 2: is going to keep him there. You have to find
Speaker 2: your way to become a Miami Heat player. I know
Speaker 2: we get caught up in culture and you know it's
Speaker 2: the Patriot way, but something to be said about those organizations.
Speaker 3: Something's working right.
Speaker 2: Players interchangeable, but the philosophy of what you do and
Speaker 2: how you do it and who's doing it haven't changed.
Speaker 2: Will take a break. More phone calls will give you
Speaker 2: our best and worst.

Speaker 8: And you may know me for the world of football
Speaker 8: or fighting or even shows like hbos Ballers. Well you
Speaker 8: don't know is for my entire life. I have lived

Speaker 2: Didn't Jim Morrison play a show where he had us
Speaker 2: back to the audience the entire time.
Speaker 1: I think when he first started he didn't turn around.
Speaker 2: Because he's shy, right, Oh, Jim Morrison was shy.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and then he became Jim Jim Morrison the Lizard King.
Speaker 6: And then there's a singer named Sia.
Speaker 1: Yeah is that her name? I don't know her music,
Speaker 1: The Bowl, haircut, a hair over. Yeah.
Speaker 6: I think she was a writer and then became a singer.
Speaker 6: I think she sometimes does concerts with her back to
Speaker 6: the CROWND.
Speaker 1: She's written a lot of hiss Chandeliers song.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, I think she's the prolific song.
Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah, I gotta I gotta tell you. I'm I'm
Speaker 6: kind of bummed that I did not go see Taylor
Speaker 6: Swift with my kids.
Speaker 1: I've been thinking about it.
Speaker 6: You know, from the experience of it.
Speaker 4: I'm not Aaron.
Speaker 3: Rodgers just went to see Taylor Swift.
Speaker 6: Another reason to go. Yeah, but I think it would
Speaker 6: have been a great experience. You know, she schedules all
Speaker 6: her concerts Taylor Swifts on Friday, almost all of them
Speaker 6: on Friday and Saturday nights, to make sure she could
Speaker 6: get the youngest kids there.
Speaker 1: Yeah, they don't have school the next day. Yeah, I
Speaker 1: think genius.
Speaker 3: I'd love to go see takes.
Speaker 1: She just had a social media post thanking like the
Speaker 1: New York New Jersey area for whatever run of shows
Speaker 1: she just hat there. So I guess there's three shows.
Speaker 1: Maybe she had over two hundred thousand people go just
Speaker 1: in that one weekend that it feels like just seeing
Speaker 1: all of the posts and stuff like that like this,
Speaker 1: I get what Paul's saying. Kind of missing out of
Speaker 1: this was probably a hell of an experience and a
Speaker 1: tour that people probably should go see. And they were
Speaker 1: all stadium Yeah, they're all massive stadiums, and.
Speaker 11: There's large amounts of people that get all dressed up
Speaker 11: just to wait outside this thing. They don't have tickets
Speaker 11: that they're like blocks away, just enjoying in whatever they
Speaker 11: can hear. That's Taylor eliminating from the stadium.
Speaker 1: Taylor gating. Yeah.
Speaker 2: Best worst of the weekend, Marvin, I'm gonna start with you.
Speaker 2: Best and worst.
Speaker 7: Best of the weekend. The atmosphere last night in Boston,
Speaker 7: plus me and Reggie Miller. I was like, hey, Reggie,
Speaker 7: I'm Marvin. I'm I replaced mclovin. Hey. He greeted me
Speaker 7: like James and Virginia. So that was cool, okay, And
Speaker 7: then worst of the weekend. No Red Sox last night.
Speaker 7: Nobody from the two.
Speaker 1: Thousand, No, No Malar was there.
Speaker 5: I see him.
Speaker 2: I think I think Kevin Malar was there. Did you
Speaker 2: get a celebrity list because you were working for TM two?
Speaker 1: I did, but I didn't see him in okay, person.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think Kevin Mallar was there representing Leo for But.
Speaker 7: It was weird because they usually have people up on
Speaker 7: the jumbo tron and you know, to get a big ovation,
Speaker 7: and I didn't see it.
Speaker 1: I didn't at least.
Speaker 3: Paulie Best and worst.
Speaker 6: I'm gonna go double best. Joseph Neugarden won the one
Speaker 6: hundred and seventh running of the Indianapolis five hundred. A
Speaker 6: couple of red flags during the race.
Speaker 1: I think tire Rack is one of the sponsors for.
Speaker 3: Him, Is that right?
Speaker 1: Yeah? I think so.
Speaker 6: This guy's entering, Joseph Nikolai Newgarden. He's from America. I
Speaker 6: just assume this guy was a Dutch. He screams Dutch,
Speaker 6: Yosef new Garden. He's from Nashville, Tennessee.
Speaker 3: Of course he is.
Speaker 6: We got He's our I'm telling you, Marv, he'd be
Speaker 6: the seventh pick of the NBA draft with the name
Speaker 6: like Joseph Newgarten.
Speaker 1: We got him.
Speaker 4: He's our guy.
Speaker 3: He's like Nicholas Skittish Villy.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's that's Intendic.
Speaker 4: And then I'm gonna go.
Speaker 6: I watch a lot of lacrosse this weekend. Notre Dame
Speaker 6: versus Duke and Notre Dame got their first ever National
Speaker 6: eNCA Lacrosse title.
Speaker 3: Good Match todd Best and Worst.
Speaker 11: Best of the weekend.
Speaker 1: I went baseball.
Speaker 11: If you like a lot of run production Major League
Speaker 11: Baseball three scores of eleven and four of ten Sunday
Speaker 11: raise eleven ten over the Dodgers, Rockies, eleven, ten over
Speaker 11: the Mets, Braves, eleven, four of the Phillies, Yankees ten,
Speaker 11: seven of the Padres. Astros beat Theday's.
Speaker 4: Ten to one.
Speaker 11: That all happened on Sunday, worst of the weekend, even
Speaker 11: though they won Game seven in Boston Saturday night in
Speaker 11: Miami heat, not boxing out in the final moments after
Speaker 11: Marcus Smart's miss, Derek White comes flying in, which worth
Speaker 11: the Game seven. That should never have happened.
Speaker 1: Nobody boxes out anymore.
Speaker 2: I remember that you had to box out when you
Speaker 2: were in high school. Coach would always say find him.
Speaker 2: As soon as shot goes, nobody boxes out. And it's
Speaker 2: so simple. It's you know, guys are just lazy, like
Speaker 2: I'm not going to box out. But if you would
Speaker 2: have put a body on him, then he doesn't get there.
Speaker 2: I mean it in hindsight.
Speaker 1: I mean that that's what you have.
Speaker 2: To guard against, is if they put the shot up,
Speaker 2: beware of the putback. And you know, give him credit
Speaker 2: though came out of nowhere and put it back in.
Speaker 3: They did.
Speaker 2: They were friendly by giving them probably an extra second
Speaker 2: on that, but they took advantage of it.
Speaker 3: It was a great play by him. Yeah, best and worst.
Speaker 1: My best of the weekend, And we've said it, but
Speaker 1: it's worth saying again because it's just so damn funny.
Speaker 1: The Heat getting a Bob Coosey and Jimmy Butler went
Speaker 1: in the Larry Bird Conference MVP on the Celtics home
Speaker 1: court after all of the hype about the Game seven
Speaker 1: comeback is just so damn funny and unfortunate for Celtics fans. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: sorry about that. I'm not going to do a worst
Speaker 1: of the weekend. I'm going to do a dumbest of
Speaker 1: the weekend. Oh the reaction to the Heat booking their
Speaker 1: travel after Game seven but before, you know, for their
Speaker 1: post Game seven travel, but doing it before they actually
Speaker 1: played the game. I think it's just called logistics. I'm
Speaker 1: pretty sure that, like people have to plan their travel
Speaker 1: and they I would guess maybe the Celtics had already
Speaker 1: also put some things to imagine that. People were just
Speaker 1: going bonkers over that, and it's like, what what do
Speaker 1: you expect them to do? Like, oh, we won this morning,
Speaker 1: we better book travel.
Speaker 2: Well, remember Jimmy Butler said, you know what's the mindset,
Speaker 2: It's that we can and we will win. Remember that
Speaker 2: was a big headline. Does anybody give them credit for
Speaker 2: guaranteeing the win?
Speaker 1: No?
Speaker 2: But in the moment, you're like, I can't believe what
Speaker 2: Jimmy Butler's saying. Right, they booked their they had plans
Speaker 2: to go to Denver. I don't know if that meant
Speaker 2: they're over confident. You can't just go. Uh, anybody make
Speaker 2: hotel reservations? No, I thought you did. No, No, you
Speaker 2: were supposed to. We got a plane.
Speaker 1: I don't know.
Speaker 3: We can get one final hour.
Speaker 2: Coming up, we'll hear Scottie Pippen's comments about Michael Jordan
