Satan, what's the 18 00:01:07,280 --> 00:01:10,080 Speaker 2: first hour poll question today? I got one here from 19 00:01:10,120 --> 00:01:12,240 Speaker 2: Paul after last night's games, which is worse. Too many 20 00:01:12,280 --> 00:01:14,200 Speaker 2: players on the court, are not enough players. 21 00:01:13,880 --> 00:01:14,640 Speaker 3: On the court. 22 00:01:16,600 --> 00:01:18,520 Speaker 2: Uh wow, that's a tough one. 23 00:01:18,600 --> 00:01:18,919 Speaker 3: Yeah. 24 00:01:19,000 --> 00:01:22,759 Speaker 4: Yeah, Paulie so Iowa, Nebraska. I was making the comeback. 25 00:01:22,880 --> 00:01:25,680 Speaker 4: I think there's like fifty eight seconds left. I was 26 00:01:25,720 --> 00:01:28,720 Speaker 4: get ready to inbounds and there's some shuffling of players 27 00:01:29,440 --> 00:01:32,080 Speaker 4: and then you see a baseball pass and then the 28 00:01:32,080 --> 00:01:33,240 Speaker 4: announcers say, what happened. 29 00:01:34,640 --> 00:01:37,440 Speaker 2: Here's Fred Hoiberg, the Nebraska head coach. 30 00:01:37,640 --> 00:01:40,000 Speaker 5: Yes, Marvin, I have the sound too of the play 31 00:01:40,000 --> 00:01:40,920 Speaker 5: by play, Katie. 32 00:01:40,959 --> 00:01:43,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, let's let's let's do that. And then we'll have 33 00:01:43,240 --> 00:01:45,240 Speaker 2: the coach Marcus Lawrence. 34 00:01:45,280 --> 00:01:47,760 Speaker 3: You put all that. Look at this pass. Oh my goodness. 35 00:01:48,640 --> 00:01:57,280 Speaker 6: Guess well now I'm going to say major defensive blown. 36 00:01:58,320 --> 00:02:02,200 Speaker 3: Yeah, well, they just don't guard Bull Garris and he's 37 00:02:02,240 --> 00:02:03,120 Speaker 3: waving for it. 38 00:02:03,200 --> 00:02:05,520 Speaker 2: How about the vision there? But you ked in jail 39 00:02:05,600 --> 00:02:07,040 Speaker 2: trying to get back in the play. 40 00:02:07,160 --> 00:02:10,400 Speaker 4: Wait a minute, I think Nebraska only had four defenders 41 00:02:10,400 --> 00:02:10,959 Speaker 4: on the floor. 42 00:02:11,880 --> 00:02:16,119 Speaker 2: Stan Van Gundy with the catch there. But here's Fred Hoiberg, 43 00:02:16,200 --> 00:02:20,800 Speaker 2: Nebraska head coach, on having only four players for rink. 44 00:02:20,960 --> 00:02:23,200 Speaker 7: About fifty eight seconds left, they had that deep ball 45 00:02:23,280 --> 00:02:25,440 Speaker 7: to Alvarro for the bucket. 46 00:02:25,480 --> 00:02:27,640 Speaker 8: I think there were four players on the court, like 47 00:02:27,720 --> 00:02:29,320 Speaker 8: you say, what happened the. 48 00:02:29,360 --> 00:02:31,280 Speaker 9: First that one myrone, you know, put that one on me. 49 00:02:31,800 --> 00:02:34,280 Speaker 9: It was a miscommunication, and you know I'm the head coach. 50 00:02:34,320 --> 00:02:34,960 Speaker 9: Put that one on me. 51 00:02:35,520 --> 00:02:38,960 Speaker 8: There's some confusion online about if that's the rules you're 52 00:02:39,360 --> 00:02:41,120 Speaker 8: supposed to have five guys on the court where deeper 53 00:02:41,240 --> 00:02:43,440 Speaker 8: the officials supposed to hold the ball before the ball 54 00:02:43,520 --> 00:02:44,160 Speaker 8: was pen A. 55 00:02:44,080 --> 00:02:46,720 Speaker 9: Good question, Robin. I've never been in a situation like that. 56 00:02:46,880 --> 00:02:49,320 Speaker 9: I know they always count to make sure there's not six. 57 00:02:49,639 --> 00:02:51,480 Speaker 9: I don't know the rule on that with with four, 58 00:02:51,680 --> 00:02:55,280 Speaker 9: but yeah, I mean again, it was a miscommunication and 59 00:02:55,520 --> 00:02:59,440 Speaker 9: you know, unfortunately it happened. But you know, as far 60 00:02:59,480 --> 00:03:01,160 Speaker 9: as the rule, I've never been a part of anything 61 00:03:01,200 --> 00:03:01,400 Speaker 9: like that. 62 00:03:01,600 --> 00:03:05,720 Speaker 2: So yeah, and you know, I give coach credit whether 63 00:03:05,760 --> 00:03:07,880 Speaker 2: it was his fault or not, he was going to 64 00:03:08,200 --> 00:03:09,360 Speaker 2: fall on the sword there. 65 00:03:10,240 --> 00:03:11,760 Speaker 3: You don't want to blame one of your kids. 66 00:03:12,160 --> 00:03:16,239 Speaker 2: And you know, it was a great year for Nebraska, 67 00:03:16,560 --> 00:03:18,919 Speaker 2: you know when you consider that that is a football 68 00:03:18,960 --> 00:03:21,160 Speaker 2: school and what they did with basketball, and they were 69 00:03:21,160 --> 00:03:23,720 Speaker 2: a good team from start to finish, and we thought 70 00:03:23,720 --> 00:03:25,160 Speaker 2: it was going to be a great game. It turned 71 00:03:25,160 --> 00:03:28,280 Speaker 2: out to be a great game going against Iowa and 72 00:03:28,919 --> 00:03:31,360 Speaker 2: It's just tough to end that way because if I 73 00:03:31,440 --> 00:03:34,400 Speaker 2: said to Nebraska fans at the beginning of the year, hey, 74 00:03:34,840 --> 00:03:36,640 Speaker 2: you're going to go to the Sweet sixteen, but you're 75 00:03:36,640 --> 00:03:39,520 Speaker 2: going to lose in dramatic fashion, and you're going to 76 00:03:39,600 --> 00:03:43,360 Speaker 2: lose to Iowa, you're still signing up for that. But 77 00:03:44,120 --> 00:03:47,520 Speaker 2: this is your hated rival. And give credit to Iowa. 78 00:03:47,560 --> 00:03:50,760 Speaker 2: They hung in there. They just lingered. They just lingered 79 00:03:50,920 --> 00:03:53,600 Speaker 2: long enough, and they end up picking up the win, 80 00:03:54,160 --> 00:03:57,080 Speaker 2: all right. Eight seven seven three DP show email address 81 00:03:57,160 --> 00:04:00,520 Speaker 2: DP Atdanpatrick dot com, Twitter handle the DP show. Well, 82 00:04:00,520 --> 00:04:02,960 Speaker 2: the Big Ten is making a statement when you consider 83 00:04:03,000 --> 00:04:06,480 Speaker 2: football and basketball. You've got a couple of teams that 84 00:04:06,480 --> 00:04:11,080 Speaker 2: can advance. Couple more Big Ten teams that can advance 85 00:04:11,720 --> 00:04:15,760 Speaker 2: tonight Michigan State, Michigan. If I'm Greg Sanke in the 86 00:04:15,800 --> 00:04:19,279 Speaker 2: SEC and I'm watching this and I go, okay, all right, 87 00:04:19,400 --> 00:04:22,080 Speaker 2: you're kind of piling on here a little bit. You know, 88 00:04:22,600 --> 00:04:25,080 Speaker 2: we can take Michigan or Ohio State winning a national 89 00:04:25,160 --> 00:04:29,400 Speaker 2: title in football, now Indiana, and then we got basketball 90 00:04:30,080 --> 00:04:36,440 Speaker 2: basketball dominating, and a couple SEC teams bounced. Certainly with Arkansas, 91 00:04:36,480 --> 00:04:38,640 Speaker 2: it was a great run for John Kelli Perry. But 92 00:04:38,680 --> 00:04:41,480 Speaker 2: here's the hard part. You know, you're not going to 93 00:04:41,560 --> 00:04:44,480 Speaker 2: have Acuff back next year. He's going into the NBA. 94 00:04:45,160 --> 00:04:47,719 Speaker 2: That's the hard part. Because John has never had a 95 00:04:47,760 --> 00:04:51,479 Speaker 2: problem recruiting, and we've talked about this. I've talked about 96 00:04:51,640 --> 00:04:55,400 Speaker 2: this with him. Can you get players who are going 97 00:04:55,440 --> 00:04:58,359 Speaker 2: to stay for two years or three years? Because I 98 00:04:58,400 --> 00:05:01,080 Speaker 2: think the wave of the future is these kids are 99 00:05:01,080 --> 00:05:04,359 Speaker 2: going to make enough money to stay in college that 100 00:05:04,440 --> 00:05:06,560 Speaker 2: they're not going to leave early and maybe be a 101 00:05:06,600 --> 00:05:09,960 Speaker 2: second round pick or not get drafted. They might stay 102 00:05:10,080 --> 00:05:13,480 Speaker 2: if they can make five hundred thousand dollars or somebody 103 00:05:13,480 --> 00:05:16,560 Speaker 2: makes seven hundred and fifty thousand dollars and they'll stay 104 00:05:16,600 --> 00:05:20,080 Speaker 2: an extra year, or maybe they'll stay for two extra years. 105 00:05:21,160 --> 00:05:24,159 Speaker 2: Your mid majors are going to lose their players, you know, 106 00:05:24,200 --> 00:05:27,280 Speaker 2: their star player that might appear on the radar. Then 107 00:05:27,320 --> 00:05:29,240 Speaker 2: all of a sudden, you know, these big schools will 108 00:05:29,240 --> 00:05:32,320 Speaker 2: swoop in and pick them up. You know, John still 109 00:05:32,360 --> 00:05:35,840 Speaker 2: needs to be able to get that core that can 110 00:05:35,880 --> 00:05:39,120 Speaker 2: be there the next year. You want to have a Cuff. 111 00:05:39,680 --> 00:05:42,880 Speaker 2: He's a tremendous player and he was wonderful throughout the tournament. 112 00:05:43,160 --> 00:05:46,200 Speaker 2: The last tournament run. I can remember for somebody like this, 113 00:05:47,440 --> 00:05:50,960 Speaker 2: Steph Curry at Davidson. I think Steph scored one hundred 114 00:05:51,000 --> 00:05:54,840 Speaker 2: points in the tournament. Acuff had around ninety. I think 115 00:05:54,880 --> 00:05:58,799 Speaker 2: he surpassed his eye on Williamson's debut with the NCAA tournament. 116 00:05:59,320 --> 00:06:02,919 Speaker 2: But he's a great coach when you think about it, 117 00:06:02,960 --> 00:06:05,840 Speaker 2: and look what's happening so far with March Madness, I mean, 118 00:06:05,880 --> 00:06:09,200 Speaker 2: Tom Izzo one of the greatest coaches of all time. Patino, 119 00:06:10,120 --> 00:06:13,160 Speaker 2: you can make an argument there's no greater coach strategy 120 00:06:13,200 --> 00:06:18,000 Speaker 2: wise and x'es and o's than Rick Patino. And that's 121 00:06:18,040 --> 00:06:22,480 Speaker 2: incorporating NBA and college. His ability to do what he 122 00:06:22,560 --> 00:06:27,240 Speaker 2: does every place that he goes is really remarkable, unmatched. 123 00:06:28,720 --> 00:06:31,240 Speaker 2: But you have you know, Danny Hurley's got a couple 124 00:06:31,240 --> 00:06:34,640 Speaker 2: of titles there. There are a lot of high end 125 00:06:34,680 --> 00:06:39,040 Speaker 2: coaches who have gotten this far. And the tricky part 126 00:06:39,120 --> 00:06:43,400 Speaker 2: is North Carolina is sitting there open and you wonder 127 00:06:44,480 --> 00:06:47,560 Speaker 2: what coach in the NCAA Tournament might end up at 128 00:06:47,600 --> 00:06:52,080 Speaker 2: North Carolina because it feels like, and I was told 129 00:06:52,080 --> 00:06:56,240 Speaker 2: this yesterday, North Carolina wants to get out ahead of 130 00:06:56,279 --> 00:07:02,200 Speaker 2: the Kansas situation because if Bill self steps down. Who 131 00:07:02,279 --> 00:07:05,360 Speaker 2: could then fill that void? And North Carolina knows you're 132 00:07:05,400 --> 00:07:07,000 Speaker 2: kind of on the clock. You want to make sure 133 00:07:07,040 --> 00:07:09,680 Speaker 2: you get your guy. You want to get your guy 134 00:07:09,760 --> 00:07:13,520 Speaker 2: before that opening happens at Kansas. By the way, Bill 135 00:07:13,600 --> 00:07:17,480 Speaker 2: Murray's son, Luke Murray, he's the offensive coordinator basically for 136 00:07:17,600 --> 00:07:21,239 Speaker 2: Yukon basketball. He's going to take the BC job. Now 137 00:07:21,480 --> 00:07:24,360 Speaker 2: that's e me because yesterday I had Dan Hurley on 138 00:07:24,920 --> 00:07:29,240 Speaker 2: and I should have asked him, now, are you prepared 139 00:07:29,280 --> 00:07:33,320 Speaker 2: to lose Luke? And you know it was rumored there. 140 00:07:33,760 --> 00:07:36,720 Speaker 2: I got caught up and ran out of time and 141 00:07:37,040 --> 00:07:39,400 Speaker 2: when we got done, I made it. I should have 142 00:07:39,440 --> 00:07:42,280 Speaker 2: asked him about that, because you know, you have this 143 00:07:42,440 --> 00:07:45,520 Speaker 2: odd you know, this tournament run, and you're going to 144 00:07:45,560 --> 00:07:49,560 Speaker 2: lose a really, really, really valuable person on that coaching staff. 145 00:07:51,000 --> 00:07:53,640 Speaker 2: It's inevitable. But then you know, I got the heads 146 00:07:53,720 --> 00:07:56,680 Speaker 2: up that he was probably taking the BC job and 147 00:07:56,760 --> 00:07:58,920 Speaker 2: I didn't ask, So that that's on me. 148 00:07:59,120 --> 00:08:02,000 Speaker 6: Yeah, had you asked him, probably would have started rubbing 149 00:08:02,040 --> 00:08:05,480 Speaker 6: his eyes and sayd I just you know, players come 150 00:08:05,520 --> 00:08:07,920 Speaker 6: and go and they just I you know, I got 151 00:08:07,920 --> 00:08:08,840 Speaker 6: to deal with what I could deal with. 152 00:08:08,880 --> 00:08:10,120 Speaker 3: I can only control so much. 153 00:08:10,520 --> 00:08:12,920 Speaker 2: You're right, Father wouldn't have allowed that. I know, but 154 00:08:13,000 --> 00:08:16,320 Speaker 2: I should have still asked the question, even though I 155 00:08:16,440 --> 00:08:19,240 Speaker 2: probably know what his answer would be. I still should. 156 00:08:19,480 --> 00:08:21,960 Speaker 2: But he's gonna stay on with Yukon. Ah, look at 157 00:08:21,960 --> 00:08:24,920 Speaker 2: Marvin all decked out in his husky gear. 158 00:08:25,000 --> 00:08:26,960 Speaker 5: Come on, you gotta stay ready to have to get ready. 159 00:08:27,040 --> 00:08:31,680 Speaker 2: Okay, come on, Oh you're ready, You're always ready, come 160 00:08:31,720 --> 00:08:33,160 Speaker 2: on always okay. 161 00:08:32,880 --> 00:08:35,800 Speaker 5: And I'm a die in this, okay, bury me writing this? 162 00:08:36,200 --> 00:08:36,520 Speaker 3: Really? 163 00:08:37,040 --> 00:08:42,520 Speaker 7: Yes, okay, like that's a verbal commitment.

You 215 00:11:16,960 --> 00:11:20,080 Speaker 2: can have the freshman, I gotta have, you know, some 216 00:11:20,240 --> 00:11:24,120 Speaker 2: juniors and seniors in there because of these moments right now, 217 00:11:24,559 --> 00:11:29,000 Speaker 2: March madness, because we've seen, you know, these freshmen and 218 00:11:29,000 --> 00:11:32,000 Speaker 2: they're only there for six months, and they may be 219 00:11:32,320 --> 00:11:34,440 Speaker 2: approaching it that way that it's not the end of 220 00:11:34,440 --> 00:11:36,320 Speaker 2: the world if they don't win a title, because they're 221 00:11:36,320 --> 00:11:38,920 Speaker 2: going to the NBA. It's the end of the world 222 00:11:38,960 --> 00:11:41,240 Speaker 2: to these Purdue kids who were going to I've been 223 00:11:41,280 --> 00:11:45,000 Speaker 2: there three or four years, or the Nebraska players who 224 00:11:45,040 --> 00:11:47,760 Speaker 2: have been there three or four years. 225 00:11:48,120 --> 00:11:50,160 Speaker 5: Yes, Marv, it's a fine line. 226 00:11:50,559 --> 00:11:52,680 Speaker 7: You want a really good college player, but you don't 227 00:11:52,679 --> 00:11:55,040 Speaker 7: want an NBA prospect. You don't want somebody that man, 228 00:11:55,120 --> 00:11:57,120 Speaker 7: he can go into lottery. You want somebody you know what, 229 00:11:57,160 --> 00:11:59,720 Speaker 7: if he got out, he'd be a late first at best, 230 00:11:59,720 --> 00:12:00,800 Speaker 7: meeting second rounder. 231 00:12:00,960 --> 00:12:03,800 Speaker 2: But you know what happens, though, Morvin is these kids 232 00:12:03,880 --> 00:12:06,520 Speaker 2: have so many people talking to them. It's like, man, 233 00:12:07,679 --> 00:12:09,760 Speaker 2: gonna you're gonna be a first round draft pick. You know, 234 00:12:09,880 --> 00:12:12,200 Speaker 2: at worst you'll be a second round draft pick. So 235 00:12:12,320 --> 00:12:14,600 Speaker 2: they believe that, and then you'll find a lot of 236 00:12:14,600 --> 00:12:17,160 Speaker 2: these guys and it's only two rounds. I mean the 237 00:12:17,280 --> 00:12:20,440 Speaker 2: draft used to be like eight or nine rounds. But 238 00:12:20,559 --> 00:12:24,440 Speaker 2: now you know, you got to decide, am I really 239 00:12:24,480 --> 00:12:26,800 Speaker 2: ready to go or do I need another year? Hey 240 00:12:26,840 --> 00:12:28,840 Speaker 2: I can stay another year because they're gonna pay me 241 00:12:29,160 --> 00:12:30,520 Speaker 2: X amount of money, yes, Martin. 242 00:12:30,760 --> 00:12:30,920 Speaker 3: Yeah. 243 00:12:30,960 --> 00:12:33,080 Speaker 7: The worst part is watching a kid that was projected 244 00:12:33,120 --> 00:12:36,280 Speaker 7: to go lottery and look, there's thirty kids that were 245 00:12:36,320 --> 00:12:37,240 Speaker 7: being told. 246 00:12:37,120 --> 00:12:38,040 Speaker 5: Hey, you're a lottery pick. 247 00:12:38,040 --> 00:12:41,920 Speaker 7: There's only fourteen lottery picks, so after pick fourteen, it's like, 248 00:12:41,960 --> 00:12:44,320 Speaker 7: oh my gosh, what am I doing here?

Robbie part of the 272 00:13:45,760 --> 00:13:50,560 Speaker 2: broadcast team last night for Iowa and Nebraska, Houston and Illinois. 273 00:13:51,080 --> 00:13:53,120 Speaker 2: Thanks for joining us. I know you had a late night. 274 00:13:53,480 --> 00:13:56,840 Speaker 2: At what point do you realize Nebraska has four players 275 00:13:57,160 --> 00:13:57,880 Speaker 2: on the floor. 276 00:13:58,840 --> 00:14:02,040 Speaker 3: Well, first off, you know, you did arrest Adam Sandler 277 00:14:02,080 --> 00:14:04,200 Speaker 3: in the longest yard, so he may have something to 278 00:14:04,240 --> 00:14:08,240 Speaker 3: say about that for the eulogy. But I realized that 279 00:14:08,360 --> 00:14:12,000 Speaker 3: when coach Van Gundy pointed out. Honestly, I was in 280 00:14:12,000 --> 00:14:14,000 Speaker 3: the middle of a thought and then I just was like, 281 00:14:14,080 --> 00:14:16,800 Speaker 3: oh my god, he's wide open, and that's you know, 282 00:14:16,960 --> 00:14:19,560 Speaker 3: coach with the eyes right there. He saw that, and 283 00:14:19,600 --> 00:14:21,800 Speaker 3: that was a great catch by him. I don't think 284 00:14:22,000 --> 00:14:25,800 Speaker 3: Dan and I've ever seen in a high major college 285 00:14:25,960 --> 00:14:29,400 Speaker 3: or you know, NBA at this level, I've never seen 286 00:14:29,480 --> 00:14:31,360 Speaker 3: four guys on the floor all of the time out that. 287 00:14:31,360 --> 00:14:32,080 Speaker 3: That was shocking. 288 00:14:32,240 --> 00:14:36,160 Speaker 2: Okay, but give me accountability for something like that. How 289 00:14:36,640 --> 00:14:40,840 Speaker 2: does that happen with coaches, assistant coaches, and the players themselves. 290 00:14:41,160 --> 00:14:44,480 Speaker 3: Well, you see now in these broadcasts where there will 291 00:14:44,560 --> 00:14:47,200 Speaker 3: be an assistant coach with a board and there will 292 00:14:47,200 --> 00:14:49,600 Speaker 3: be five names on it with five numbers, and that's 293 00:14:49,640 --> 00:14:52,920 Speaker 3: who you're guarding. I can only imagine that it's just 294 00:14:53,000 --> 00:14:56,920 Speaker 3: a total miscommunication where coach puts somebody in and that 295 00:14:56,960 --> 00:14:59,240 Speaker 3: guy's not paying attention, and then you get to the 296 00:14:59,280 --> 00:15:02,600 Speaker 3: floor and Rank mast was sort of standing up and 297 00:15:02,640 --> 00:15:04,920 Speaker 3: trying to get in the game. But I just think 298 00:15:05,000 --> 00:15:07,280 Speaker 3: it's on both. You know, it's on the players to listen, 299 00:15:07,320 --> 00:15:09,960 Speaker 3: it's on the coaches to double check, and it's just 300 00:15:10,000 --> 00:15:12,600 Speaker 3: a it's a total failure all the way around in 301 00:15:12,600 --> 00:15:13,240 Speaker 3: that situation. 302 00:15:13,720 --> 00:15:17,240 Speaker 2: Does the official can he play a role in this 303 00:15:17,400 --> 00:15:20,960 Speaker 2: to say to coach, hey, you only got four on 304 00:15:21,000 --> 00:15:21,360 Speaker 2: the floor? 305 00:15:21,400 --> 00:15:23,720 Speaker 3: Can that That is a good point right there? And 306 00:15:23,760 --> 00:15:26,320 Speaker 3: a lot of those you'll see the officials in all 307 00:15:26,360 --> 00:15:28,560 Speaker 3: of these games where they're counting guys to make sure 308 00:15:28,560 --> 00:15:31,640 Speaker 3: there's not six. And I'm sure that a lot of 309 00:15:31,640 --> 00:15:34,360 Speaker 3: officials would say to that bench, hey you've got four 310 00:15:34,400 --> 00:15:36,440 Speaker 3: guys out here. Yeah, that's that's a great point. But 311 00:15:36,480 --> 00:15:39,360 Speaker 3: that's definitely a better question for a guy that has 312 00:15:39,400 --> 00:15:43,160 Speaker 3: refereed in the NCAA tournament games than for me. But yeah, 313 00:15:43,160 --> 00:15:44,320 Speaker 3: that's that's a really good point. 314 00:15:44,440 --> 00:15:47,000 Speaker 2: But you get penalized for six, you don't get penalized 315 00:15:47,000 --> 00:15:50,680 Speaker 2: for four correct, correct, you just get scored on. How 316 00:15:50,720 --> 00:15:53,840 Speaker 2: good is Yeah, that's true. How good is Iowa? 317 00:15:54,880 --> 00:15:56,680 Speaker 3: I think they're good, and I think they're playing their 318 00:15:56,680 --> 00:15:58,880 Speaker 3: best basketball at the right time. You know, for so 319 00:15:59,000 --> 00:16:01,120 Speaker 3: much of this season it's it's been well, it's it's 320 00:16:01,120 --> 00:16:03,440 Speaker 3: Ben at Sturt's and it's just kind of everybody else 321 00:16:03,520 --> 00:16:06,360 Speaker 3: and can he get enough help? And his usage is 322 00:16:06,400 --> 00:16:08,240 Speaker 3: so high and his minutes are so high, and he's 323 00:16:08,280 --> 00:16:10,680 Speaker 3: just having to do so much. But whether it's full 324 00:16:10,720 --> 00:16:13,160 Speaker 3: Garis and in the Florida game with the shot, or 325 00:16:13,200 --> 00:16:15,680 Speaker 3: even last night, he was tremendous and in a number 326 00:16:15,760 --> 00:16:18,680 Speaker 3: of ways, Tate Sage, you know, Tavian Banks in the 327 00:16:18,840 --> 00:16:22,440 Speaker 3: in the Florida game had twenty that They've gotten contributions 328 00:16:22,480 --> 00:16:25,520 Speaker 3: from some other guys and they they're just so well coached, 329 00:16:25,520 --> 00:16:29,480 Speaker 3: like Ben McCollum is an incredible story of winning everywhere 330 00:16:30,000 --> 00:16:33,680 Speaker 3: and scheming and the attention to detail. You go to 331 00:16:33,720 --> 00:16:37,000 Speaker 3: a practice, they're they're working on stuff that is so 332 00:16:37,520 --> 00:16:40,520 Speaker 3: you know, like minute and just hey, I don't want 333 00:16:40,560 --> 00:16:42,120 Speaker 3: you here, I want you to be a step to 334 00:16:42,160 --> 00:16:44,800 Speaker 3: the left, or the footwork needs to be this, like 335 00:16:44,960 --> 00:16:47,320 Speaker 3: just things that. You know, a lot of people are 336 00:16:47,360 --> 00:16:49,840 Speaker 3: even a lot of players and coaches would probably let slide. 337 00:16:50,200 --> 00:16:52,560 Speaker 3: He's not letting slide. That dude is on it with 338 00:16:52,640 --> 00:16:53,360 Speaker 3: the details. 339 00:16:53,600 --> 00:16:57,120 Speaker 2: Illinois surprised me. I know they're a really good team. 340 00:16:57,320 --> 00:17:01,680 Speaker 2: I know they got the players from the Bulkans, but 341 00:17:01,960 --> 00:17:04,280 Speaker 2: you know that defense. I mean, Houston's not a high 342 00:17:04,280 --> 00:17:07,160 Speaker 2: scoring team, but still you held them to fifty five 343 00:17:07,200 --> 00:17:10,360 Speaker 2: in a home game. Yeah, that one surprised me a lot. 344 00:17:10,480 --> 00:17:11,000 Speaker 2: How about you? 345 00:17:11,119 --> 00:17:15,040 Speaker 3: Well, and yes, because I saw Illinois in February and 346 00:17:15,040 --> 00:17:17,600 Speaker 3: they were giving up ninety points to seemingly it felt 347 00:17:17,600 --> 00:17:20,840 Speaker 3: like everybody. The problem has never been offense for Illinois. 348 00:17:20,960 --> 00:17:22,720 Speaker 3: It has been the defensive side of the floor. I 349 00:17:22,720 --> 00:17:25,760 Speaker 3: thought VCU could give them some problems because I saw 350 00:17:25,840 --> 00:17:28,359 Speaker 3: them in the A ten Championship game and they had 351 00:17:28,440 --> 00:17:31,080 Speaker 3: dynamic guards, they had some shooting on the perimeter. It's like, 352 00:17:31,119 --> 00:17:33,080 Speaker 3: all right, that's going to be a tough cover. And 353 00:17:33,119 --> 00:17:36,120 Speaker 3: they overwhelmed them. And they kind of did the same 354 00:17:36,160 --> 00:17:38,359 Speaker 3: thing with Houston, and not just the home game, but 355 00:17:38,800 --> 00:17:42,160 Speaker 3: like Milos Huzan and Emmanuel Sharp and Jojo Tuckler played 356 00:17:42,160 --> 00:17:44,960 Speaker 3: in the National Championship Game last year, So you have 357 00:17:45,040 --> 00:17:48,000 Speaker 3: the home environment, you've got experienced players, You've got probably 358 00:17:48,000 --> 00:17:51,840 Speaker 3: two lottery pick freshmen, and they just kept them stuck 359 00:17:51,880 --> 00:17:54,600 Speaker 3: in the mud all night long. And Illinoi's got the 360 00:17:54,600 --> 00:17:57,960 Speaker 3: positional size and right now they're guarding at a high level, 361 00:17:58,000 --> 00:18:00,560 Speaker 3: and we know they could score like they're scary team 362 00:18:00,600 --> 00:18:01,399 Speaker 3: that they're going to guard. 363 00:18:01,480 --> 00:18:04,760 Speaker 2: Like this is the Big Ten of basketball conference or 364 00:18:04,800 --> 00:18:05,760 Speaker 2: a football conference. 365 00:18:07,880 --> 00:18:10,919 Speaker 3: I guess. We've won the last three national championships with 366 00:18:10,960 --> 00:18:14,480 Speaker 3: the Big Ten, so I guess football. But this is 367 00:18:14,560 --> 00:18:17,000 Speaker 3: quite the season for the Big Ten in basketball and 368 00:18:17,240 --> 00:18:21,560 Speaker 3: certainly the just the overarching story of no national championships 369 00:18:21,560 --> 00:18:24,280 Speaker 3: from two thousand and on, with tom Izzo being the 370 00:18:24,359 --> 00:18:26,760 Speaker 3: last to do it. Maybe this is the year to 371 00:18:26,800 --> 00:18:29,240 Speaker 3: break out of that. But you know, we'll see there's 372 00:18:29,280 --> 00:18:31,679 Speaker 3: some really good teams left from other conferences. But the 373 00:18:31,720 --> 00:18:34,199 Speaker 3: Big Ten has had a great season. And you know, 374 00:18:34,400 --> 00:18:37,000 Speaker 3: we were laughing yesterday that Nebraska and Indiana have like 375 00:18:37,040 --> 00:18:41,040 Speaker 3: flip places. The Nebraska basketball team is all of a 376 00:18:41,080 --> 00:18:43,399 Speaker 3: sudden in the second weekend. In Indiana football is a 377 00:18:43,480 --> 00:18:46,639 Speaker 3: national champion. That is hard to believe for childhood me. 378 00:18:47,520 --> 00:18:52,280 Speaker 2: Robbie Hommel in caa NBA analyst, for NBC. You were 379 00:18:52,400 --> 00:18:57,600 Speaker 2: second round pick in the draft in twenty twelve. Yeah, 380 00:18:57,640 --> 00:19:01,399 Speaker 2: I was, yes, Yes, Did you have an NBA moment? 381 00:19:02,400 --> 00:19:03,480 Speaker 2: I think you have to share. 382 00:19:04,440 --> 00:19:07,879 Speaker 3: Yeah, I have a good one. So my like the 383 00:19:07,960 --> 00:19:11,880 Speaker 3: second or third game, you know, we're playing the Thunder 384 00:19:12,320 --> 00:19:15,760 Speaker 3: in the target center and Kevin Durant is off to 385 00:19:15,880 --> 00:19:19,840 Speaker 3: a tough start. Corey Brewer is guarding him and he's 386 00:19:19,840 --> 00:19:22,439 Speaker 3: doing a good job. Like Durant missed some shots that 387 00:19:22,480 --> 00:19:26,399 Speaker 3: he normally makes early on and he misses one and 388 00:19:26,480 --> 00:19:28,440 Speaker 3: the ball gets knocked out of bounce. I'm sitting next 389 00:19:28,480 --> 00:19:30,720 Speaker 3: to Gorgy Dane, who ended up having a really good 390 00:19:30,800 --> 00:19:33,240 Speaker 3: NBA career played at Louisville. We're both rookies at the 391 00:19:33,240 --> 00:19:38,280 Speaker 3: same time. Gorgy makes the mistake of clapping and yelling 392 00:19:38,359 --> 00:19:41,760 Speaker 3: good d brew and Durant hears him and this is 393 00:19:41,800 --> 00:19:44,080 Speaker 3: the clean version, but he goes it wasn't good, d 394 00:19:44,280 --> 00:19:48,360 Speaker 3: brew it was bad fricking shot. Kevin. I was like, man, 395 00:19:48,400 --> 00:19:52,160 Speaker 3: that's pretty good. Comeback there. Durant gets the ball. We're 396 00:19:52,240 --> 00:19:55,960 Speaker 3: up eight points, and he drills a three and stares 397 00:19:56,000 --> 00:19:59,120 Speaker 3: down the bench the whole way and we missed. They 398 00:19:59,119 --> 00:20:02,280 Speaker 3: come back down thing. Durant gets the ball, drills another one, 399 00:20:02,320 --> 00:20:04,119 Speaker 3: so our a point lead is now too and the 400 00:20:04,160 --> 00:20:07,240 Speaker 3: whole way down he is tractor beam on Gorgy Dang 401 00:20:07,640 --> 00:20:11,320 Speaker 3: like literally just staring him down. We miss again. They 402 00:20:11,359 --> 00:20:13,800 Speaker 3: come down, there's like a foul or a ball out 403 00:20:13,800 --> 00:20:17,800 Speaker 3: of bounds. He comes over and Kevin Durant verbally of 404 00:20:18,040 --> 00:20:21,040 Speaker 3: viscrates Gorgy. I don't know who you are. I don't 405 00:20:21,040 --> 00:20:23,680 Speaker 3: know where he played in college. I've never heard of you. 406 00:20:23,680 --> 00:20:26,040 Speaker 3: You'll I don't know how you'll ever play in this league. 407 00:20:26,359 --> 00:20:28,800 Speaker 3: And in my mind, and Gorgey's like, you don't want 408 00:20:28,800 --> 00:20:30,359 Speaker 3: to know me, you don't want like he doesn't know 409 00:20:30,400 --> 00:20:33,800 Speaker 3: what to say. Jack Sikma is one of our assistant coaches, 410 00:20:33,840 --> 00:20:38,840 Speaker 3: the legendary Jack Sikma. He's screaming at Gorgy stop talking 411 00:20:38,880 --> 00:20:43,280 Speaker 3: to Kevin Durant, and I'm like, thank god, I didn't 412 00:20:43,320 --> 00:20:48,160 Speaker 3: say anything. Durant gets the ball literally step back, fade away, 413 00:20:48,240 --> 00:20:51,199 Speaker 3: three drills. It beats his chest of man, I'm a 414 00:20:51,359 --> 00:20:54,159 Speaker 3: bad man. You will ever forget it, And I'm like, 415 00:20:55,000 --> 00:20:58,280 Speaker 3: oh my god, like this is a whole other level. 416 00:20:58,280 --> 00:21:00,280 Speaker 3: But then you fast forward like a month and I'm 417 00:21:00,280 --> 00:21:04,679 Speaker 3: playing and I will never forget this we're I've like 418 00:21:04,760 --> 00:21:06,800 Speaker 3: moved into the rotation a little bit, and we got 419 00:21:06,840 --> 00:21:10,000 Speaker 3: some injuries and we've got some real foul trouble. Corey 420 00:21:10,040 --> 00:21:12,840 Speaker 3: Burwer gets his second file and I remember thinking, like, man, 421 00:21:12,880 --> 00:21:15,080 Speaker 3: if he gets his third, I think it's I think 422 00:21:15,119 --> 00:21:17,879 Speaker 3: it's going to be me and he's guarding Durant. And 423 00:21:18,280 --> 00:21:22,480 Speaker 3: as soon as I thought that literally filed Corey's coming out. 424 00:21:22,560 --> 00:21:24,640 Speaker 3: I will never forget looking at the floor and Rick 425 00:21:24,680 --> 00:21:28,520 Speaker 3: Adam and goes, Rob, you got him, and literally I 426 00:21:28,600 --> 00:21:30,399 Speaker 3: sub in. There's like two and a half minutes to 427 00:21:30,400 --> 00:21:33,000 Speaker 3: go in the first quarter, and me and Kevin Durant 428 00:21:33,000 --> 00:21:35,359 Speaker 3: played one on one in front of seventeen thousand of 429 00:21:35,400 --> 00:21:38,359 Speaker 3: the TI. He started bringing the ball up literally every 430 00:21:38,400 --> 00:21:41,840 Speaker 3: time clear out ISO. It was like it was horrifying 431 00:21:41,840 --> 00:21:45,080 Speaker 3: because you're like, dude, it's got seven foot tall, two guard, 432 00:21:46,040 --> 00:21:49,160 Speaker 3: unbelievable player, Hall of Fame player, top you know, ten, 433 00:21:49,280 --> 00:21:53,000 Speaker 3: fifteen whatever, and you're just at his mercy. It was terrifying. 434 00:21:53,840 --> 00:21:57,080 Speaker 3: Is he unguardable? Yeah, because he can get to his 435 00:21:57,119 --> 00:21:59,840 Speaker 3: pull up whenever he wants, you know, like he's just 436 00:22:00,400 --> 00:22:03,560 Speaker 3: for whether it's playing pick and roll, getting to the elbows. 437 00:22:03,720 --> 00:22:07,000 Speaker 3: She would just pull up. He's an incredible player. I 438 00:22:07,040 --> 00:22:09,800 Speaker 3: love watching Kevin Durant play. I'm such a fan. All right, 439 00:22:09,840 --> 00:22:12,280 Speaker 3: So what do you force him to do? Well? I 440 00:22:12,320 --> 00:22:14,400 Speaker 3: followed him on a three. That was a good start, 441 00:22:16,040 --> 00:22:19,520 Speaker 3: and then I actually got some stops. But Dan, I 442 00:22:19,520 --> 00:22:22,520 Speaker 3: promise you it was not because it was good decense. 443 00:22:22,840 --> 00:22:27,000 Speaker 3: He just missed a couple. But the NBA, like everybody 444 00:22:27,080 --> 00:22:29,600 Speaker 3: is so good, you know, Like, and I've played all 445 00:22:29,600 --> 00:22:31,639 Speaker 3: over the world. I played in Russia, I played in Italy, 446 00:22:31,680 --> 00:22:33,560 Speaker 3: I played in Spain. I played two years in the NBA. 447 00:22:33,800 --> 00:22:37,040 Speaker 3: But like, just the talent level in the NBA for 448 00:22:37,240 --> 00:22:40,920 Speaker 3: all four hundred and fifty guys is truly remarkable. When 449 00:22:40,920 --> 00:22:41,320 Speaker 3: you're there. 450 00:22:42,400 --> 00:22:46,000 Speaker 2: Well, you were first team All Big ten what three times? 451 00:22:46,760 --> 00:22:49,320 Speaker 3: Yeah? Yeah. But I blow my knee out twice my 452 00:22:49,400 --> 00:22:51,960 Speaker 3: junior year and came back as a senior, and I 453 00:22:52,080 --> 00:22:55,520 Speaker 3: certainly was trying to kind of figure my way back physically. 454 00:22:55,720 --> 00:22:57,880 Speaker 3: And I played my rookie year in Spain and then 455 00:22:58,119 --> 00:23:00,680 Speaker 3: two years of Minnesota. I played for Georgia Moni's team 456 00:23:00,680 --> 00:23:03,760 Speaker 3: in Italy, so we had good uniforms, did a lot 457 00:23:03,760 --> 00:23:05,520 Speaker 3: of milel winning, and then I was I was cut 458 00:23:05,560 --> 00:23:07,359 Speaker 3: by the Nuggets. I was last cut and I went 459 00:23:07,400 --> 00:23:09,960 Speaker 3: to Moscow and played the year, which was an adventure 460 00:23:10,040 --> 00:23:10,640 Speaker 3: in itself. 461 00:23:11,520 --> 00:23:13,600 Speaker 2: What does adventure mean in Moscow? 462 00:23:14,400 --> 00:23:18,640 Speaker 3: Well, there's just corruption. There's just a rampant corruption throughout 463 00:23:18,640 --> 00:23:24,760 Speaker 3: the games. There's probably some of that, like the officiating. 464 00:23:24,880 --> 00:23:28,000 Speaker 3: I think teams are trying to avoid. Chesca was like 465 00:23:28,119 --> 00:23:30,639 Speaker 3: the best team, they have the biggest budget. You know, 466 00:23:30,720 --> 00:23:35,240 Speaker 3: everybody's trying to avoid Chesca. Really my best overseas European story. 467 00:23:36,680 --> 00:23:40,240 Speaker 3: Our team had signed Alexi sed who I the reason 468 00:23:40,320 --> 00:23:43,320 Speaker 3: I went I'm cut by the Nuggets. Alexi was my 469 00:23:43,400 --> 00:23:45,800 Speaker 3: teammate and I sat with him really on all the 470 00:23:45,840 --> 00:23:49,320 Speaker 3: planes in Minnesota. We'd sit together the flights and so 471 00:23:49,359 --> 00:23:51,800 Speaker 3: when I got cut, this team makes me an offer. 472 00:23:51,920 --> 00:23:54,280 Speaker 3: And Alexi had left and I think it was Philly. 473 00:23:54,560 --> 00:23:56,320 Speaker 3: He was out of the NBA. He goes back. He's 474 00:23:56,320 --> 00:23:59,119 Speaker 3: the highest paid player in Europe this year. So I 475 00:23:59,160 --> 00:24:01,560 Speaker 3: talked to him, how is it. He's like, yeah, it's great. 476 00:24:01,640 --> 00:24:03,480 Speaker 3: You know, he's living at home, he's the highest big 477 00:24:03,520 --> 00:24:04,959 Speaker 3: guy and you're up to he's shooting like, you know, 478 00:24:05,000 --> 00:24:07,080 Speaker 3: twenty times a game, and so for him it's great. 479 00:24:07,680 --> 00:24:10,199 Speaker 3: And they signed Jacob Polham who if you remember at 480 00:24:10,240 --> 00:24:12,520 Speaker 3: Kansas State, they got Marco Brown who was in the 481 00:24:12,600 --> 00:24:14,840 Speaker 3: NBA for the Nets and he was out, and then 482 00:24:14,880 --> 00:24:18,360 Speaker 3: they brought him in, a guy named EJ. Rowland who 483 00:24:18,359 --> 00:24:20,640 Speaker 3: played at Saint Mary's, and then Jeremy Evans from the NBA. 484 00:24:20,680 --> 00:24:22,960 Speaker 3: So they signed all these NBA guys because they're the 485 00:24:23,000 --> 00:24:26,000 Speaker 3: team had been relegated from euro League to euro Cup. 486 00:24:26,040 --> 00:24:27,879 Speaker 3: It's kind of like soccer where you're playing in the 487 00:24:27,960 --> 00:24:31,480 Speaker 3: Russian League, but you're also playing a second game during 488 00:24:31,480 --> 00:24:33,399 Speaker 3: the week and you're playing in a euro Cup or 489 00:24:33,400 --> 00:24:36,119 Speaker 3: Earleague game. So the way to get back to euro 490 00:24:36,280 --> 00:24:39,080 Speaker 3: League is that you have to either win euro Cup, 491 00:24:39,160 --> 00:24:41,600 Speaker 3: which we don't. We lose in the quarterfinals in Valencia, 492 00:24:42,240 --> 00:24:45,560 Speaker 3: or you make the finals. So some of the corruption 493 00:24:45,600 --> 00:24:47,960 Speaker 3: I'm talking about like teams. If you're the four of 494 00:24:48,040 --> 00:24:50,400 Speaker 3: the five and you've got CHESSCA in the Semis, there's 495 00:24:50,480 --> 00:24:52,520 Speaker 3: no way you're going to beat them because they've got 496 00:24:52,520 --> 00:24:55,160 Speaker 3: the biggest budget. They're kind of like the national team 497 00:24:55,160 --> 00:24:58,920 Speaker 3: of Russia. So we end up playing our first round 498 00:24:58,920 --> 00:25:02,399 Speaker 3: series inside Iberia. We're the two seat, we're in Siberia. 499 00:25:03,119 --> 00:25:06,679 Speaker 3: We've sweep them, and then we play in the semifinals, 500 00:25:06,720 --> 00:25:10,080 Speaker 3: the team from Saint Petersburg five game series. They've got 501 00:25:10,119 --> 00:25:13,400 Speaker 3: Trevor and Bachway who played at Minnesota, Aaron White who 502 00:25:13,440 --> 00:25:16,720 Speaker 3: played at Iowa, and some of these guys swear that 503 00:25:16,840 --> 00:25:19,159 Speaker 3: Game five was fixed. I need to go back and 504 00:25:19,240 --> 00:25:21,880 Speaker 3: watch and see. But we lose the first two, win 505 00:25:21,920 --> 00:25:25,200 Speaker 3: the next two. Decisive Game five in Saint Petersburg. Our 506 00:25:25,359 --> 00:25:28,800 Speaker 3: owner who's like an oligard, comes in the locker room 507 00:25:29,200 --> 00:25:31,800 Speaker 3: fifty minutes before the game, and at this point I'm like, dude, 508 00:25:31,840 --> 00:25:34,600 Speaker 3: I'm going to retire if we lose. I don't care 509 00:25:34,640 --> 00:25:37,400 Speaker 3: because I want to leave so bad. I just I'm 510 00:25:37,440 --> 00:25:40,400 Speaker 3: over this. I hate being here. I'm ready to go home. 511 00:25:41,119 --> 00:25:43,840 Speaker 3: Owner comes in the locker room and goes, guys, this 512 00:25:43,920 --> 00:25:46,919 Speaker 3: is the biggest game in franchise history. You win tonight, 513 00:25:47,040 --> 00:25:49,680 Speaker 3: I'll pay each of you one hundred thousand US dollars 514 00:25:49,680 --> 00:25:52,080 Speaker 3: from my safe. And if you win the final two 515 00:25:52,200 --> 00:25:55,840 Speaker 3: fifty more so. I went from I hope we lose them. 516 00:25:55,960 --> 00:25:58,480 Speaker 3: We gotta win, like we have to win this game. 517 00:25:59,080 --> 00:26:02,720 Speaker 3: We end up winning. It's controversial finish. Some of our 518 00:26:02,800 --> 00:26:05,760 Speaker 3: Russian players who aren't being paid but all that much 519 00:26:05,880 --> 00:26:08,119 Speaker 3: or like hugging on the court. We won the semis 520 00:26:08,760 --> 00:26:12,080 Speaker 3: like hugging like we won the NBA Finals. The crazy 521 00:26:12,160 --> 00:26:14,480 Speaker 3: thing though about this story is that a couple of 522 00:26:14,560 --> 00:26:17,600 Speaker 3: days later, we have a lunch at the owners. He's 523 00:26:17,640 --> 00:26:20,119 Speaker 3: got like a twenty story office building in Moscow and 524 00:26:20,119 --> 00:26:22,120 Speaker 3: he's got a really nice restaurant in the first floor, 525 00:26:22,800 --> 00:26:26,240 Speaker 3: and the spreads incredible, you're Filet, Mignon, lost or whatever 526 00:26:26,280 --> 00:26:28,919 Speaker 3: you want, They've they've got it there. And the owner 527 00:26:29,080 --> 00:26:32,679 Speaker 3: literally says, like Joe, He's kind of like says it laughing, 528 00:26:32,680 --> 00:26:34,760 Speaker 3: but it's not a Joe. He goes, man. The funny 529 00:26:34,800 --> 00:26:37,840 Speaker 3: thing is I paid the rest to get a fair whistle. 530 00:26:38,160 --> 00:26:40,440 Speaker 3: So he admits to bribing the rest, which I'm sure 531 00:26:40,440 --> 00:26:43,080 Speaker 3: the other team was doing too, And then he points 532 00:26:43,119 --> 00:26:45,360 Speaker 3: to the corner of the room and he literally says, 533 00:26:45,359 --> 00:26:47,000 Speaker 3: all right, I got what you guys came from. Let's 534 00:26:47,000 --> 00:26:48,800 Speaker 3: win the final. We'll do this again. And he lined 535 00:26:48,880 --> 00:26:51,879 Speaker 3: us up like we were third graders and literally doled 536 00:26:51,880 --> 00:26:55,240 Speaker 3: out one hundred thousand cash in bags and just handed 537 00:26:55,280 --> 00:26:58,199 Speaker 3: them and doled them out fifteen times. And literally we 538 00:26:58,240 --> 00:27:01,600 Speaker 3: all had drivers. My driver was Roman, spoke no English. 539 00:27:01,600 --> 00:27:04,240 Speaker 3: We could only talk on Google translate. I get in 540 00:27:04,280 --> 00:27:06,480 Speaker 3: the car and he's like, what's in the back. I'm like, 541 00:27:06,680 --> 00:27:08,920 Speaker 3: we're gonna get car jacks, all of us. We're gonna 542 00:27:08,920 --> 00:27:13,040 Speaker 3: get carjacked there. And the craziest thing Dan is that 543 00:27:13,119 --> 00:27:15,439 Speaker 3: we had to go to practice. So there was one 544 00:27:15,520 --> 00:27:19,240 Speaker 3: point five million dollars in cash in the locker room. Well, 545 00:27:19,280 --> 00:27:22,439 Speaker 3: we practiced, and the next year some guy during a 546 00:27:22,480 --> 00:27:29,600 Speaker 3: game walked in that same locker room and stole everything, wallets, money, watches, everything. 547 00:27:30,000 --> 00:27:32,320 Speaker 3: So like, luckily he didn't take that day because he 548 00:27:32,359 --> 00:27:34,600 Speaker 3: would have he would have left with a good haul. 549 00:27:34,680 --> 00:27:37,399 Speaker 3: But yeah, Russia's there's a lot going on there, a 550 00:27:37,400 --> 00:27:38,160 Speaker 3: lot going on there. 551 00:27:38,240 --> 00:27:42,480 Speaker 2: Talking to Robbie Hummel TNT, CBS basketball, Aly, Sorry, what 552 00:27:42,560 --> 00:27:43,320 Speaker 2: happens tonight? 553 00:27:44,880 --> 00:27:49,760 Speaker 3: Well, who's playing? Sa thing is when you do the tournament? 554 00:27:50,040 --> 00:27:52,480 Speaker 3: They douke in Saint John's. Who else do we got? 555 00:27:53,119 --> 00:27:56,119 Speaker 2: Michigan State Connecticut? Michigan State Connecticut. 556 00:27:56,240 --> 00:27:59,960 Speaker 3: Yeah, that'll be interesting because Connecticut has certainly had moment, 557 00:28:00,320 --> 00:28:02,760 Speaker 3: but they've been so up and down, and you know, 558 00:28:02,920 --> 00:28:04,920 Speaker 3: for a lot of the other defense was really good, 559 00:28:04,920 --> 00:28:06,920 Speaker 3: but then they went through a loll and their offense 560 00:28:07,040 --> 00:28:10,199 Speaker 3: is better. That's about toughness. You know who can be 561 00:28:10,200 --> 00:28:13,560 Speaker 3: the tougher team when you play tom as those basketball teams, 562 00:28:13,560 --> 00:28:15,320 Speaker 3: whether it's when I was playing or when the team 563 00:28:15,400 --> 00:28:18,520 Speaker 3: Clays is playing, or in today's era. It's all about rebounding, 564 00:28:18,520 --> 00:28:20,440 Speaker 3: in fringes and defense. And the funny thing is I 565 00:28:20,480 --> 00:28:23,080 Speaker 3: can give you the scout and report in seven and 566 00:28:23,119 --> 00:28:25,600 Speaker 3: it would be relevant, you know, today in twenty twenty 567 00:28:25,640 --> 00:28:29,479 Speaker 3: six and for you. Kin tarras Reid is definitely the 568 00:28:29,640 --> 00:28:31,639 Speaker 3: X factor. For me, I just think he's one of 569 00:28:31,640 --> 00:28:34,720 Speaker 3: those guys when he's playing well, they're hard to handle 570 00:28:34,760 --> 00:28:37,280 Speaker 3: because their guard play is good. Caravans the ultimate winner. 571 00:28:38,000 --> 00:28:39,880 Speaker 3: So if Terras Reid can hang in there against those 572 00:28:39,880 --> 00:28:42,600 Speaker 3: Michigan State bigs and the wave of bigs they're going 573 00:28:42,680 --> 00:28:45,520 Speaker 3: to throw him, that would go a long way. Thanks 574 00:28:45,520 --> 00:28:46,040 Speaker 3: for sharing. 575 00:28:46,280 --> 00:28:49,800 Speaker 2: You're doing a great job and people are noticing how 576 00:28:49,840 --> 00:28:52,960 Speaker 2: good you've been as an analyst, certainly during March madness. 577 00:28:52,960 --> 00:28:55,000 Speaker 3: But thank you.

DP. 705 00:35:20,040 --> 00:35:22,800 Speaker 11: I always pictured Marvin, you know, with the Jake Moskel 706 00:35:22,880 --> 00:35:24,880 Speaker 11: Jersey on when he's up there at the early gates. 707 00:35:24,960 --> 00:35:28,960 Speaker 11: But I just wanted to ask you about that NBA expansion. 708 00:35:29,680 --> 00:35:33,200 Speaker 11: We already have quite a few teams that go into 709 00:35:33,239 --> 00:35:36,799 Speaker 11: the season and remain irrelevant. Do you think that it's 710 00:35:36,800 --> 00:35:39,359 Speaker 11: a good move to move into expansion right now? 711 00:35:40,080 --> 00:35:42,920 Speaker 2: Well, we've talked about that and we had Tracy McGrady on. 712 00:35:43,000 --> 00:35:44,880 Speaker 2: He goes, I don't know if we have enough players 713 00:35:44,960 --> 00:35:48,359 Speaker 2: to expand, and he does make a really good case there. 714 00:35:48,560 --> 00:35:50,760 Speaker 2: I mean, if you look at some of these rosters, 715 00:35:51,320 --> 00:35:55,400 Speaker 2: then I could give you names and you'd go, what sport? 716 00:35:56,800 --> 00:36:00,360 Speaker 2: You know, they just wouldn't ring, if they'd ring hollow, 717 00:36:00,360 --> 00:36:02,399 Speaker 2: and you'd be like, I have no idea who that is? 718 00:36:02,880 --> 00:36:05,000 Speaker 2: I follow it? And there are times when I go. 719 00:36:05,080 --> 00:36:07,400 Speaker 2: I have no idea who that guy is or who 720 00:36:07,480 --> 00:36:11,879 Speaker 2: he plays for. I do not, But man, you look 721 00:36:11,920 --> 00:36:16,840 Speaker 2: at the money. It's between seven and ten billion dollars. 722 00:36:17,680 --> 00:36:21,120 Speaker 2: This is the entrance fee, and that money will then 723 00:36:21,160 --> 00:36:24,400 Speaker 2: go to the other owners. The other owners are going 724 00:36:24,480 --> 00:36:30,400 Speaker 2: to make probably somewhere around I don't know, four hundred 725 00:36:30,640 --> 00:36:35,920 Speaker 2: five hundred million dollars for not doing anything. You imagine 726 00:36:35,960 --> 00:36:37,440 Speaker 2: you show up one day and you look in your 727 00:36:37,480 --> 00:36:41,160 Speaker 2: bank account and it's got four hundred and fifty million 728 00:36:41,280 --> 00:36:46,719 Speaker 2: dollars and you didn't do anything. Man, great to be 729 00:36:46,760 --> 00:36:51,839 Speaker 2: an owner. Chris and Syracuse. Hi Chris, what's on your mind? 730 00:36:52,400 --> 00:36:52,680 Speaker 3: Hey? 731 00:36:52,680 --> 00:36:53,440 Speaker 14: Thanks for getting me in. 732 00:36:53,520 --> 00:36:53,680 Speaker 7: Dan. 733 00:36:53,840 --> 00:36:55,719 Speaker 14: Hey, I got a few things to throw at you, 734 00:36:55,760 --> 00:36:58,880 Speaker 14: and also a possible mock headline to be written on 735 00:36:58,960 --> 00:37:01,839 Speaker 14: your casket. Yeah, I guess Vegas can't go with because 736 00:37:01,880 --> 00:37:03,680 Speaker 14: of the Chicago Bulls. They can't go with the pit 737 00:37:03,760 --> 00:37:08,040 Speaker 14: Bulls either. You were talking about the Pirates center fielders. 738 00:37:08,320 --> 00:37:11,600 Speaker 14: Non error Now MLB says it has to be a 739 00:37:11,600 --> 00:37:15,680 Speaker 14: physical error, not a judgment error. When your judgment tells 740 00:37:15,680 --> 00:37:17,719 Speaker 14: you to put your glove in a certain spot and 741 00:37:17,760 --> 00:37:20,600 Speaker 14: the ball bounces off the heel of your glove, that's 742 00:37:20,640 --> 00:37:23,160 Speaker 14: an error, just like when your judgment tells you to 743 00:37:23,239 --> 00:37:26,640 Speaker 14: run forward after a ball instead of backwards. Running is 744 00:37:26,640 --> 00:37:30,319 Speaker 14: a physical activity, it's an error. And I have to 745 00:37:30,360 --> 00:37:33,280 Speaker 14: disagree with Robbi Hummel saying he's never seen a coach 746 00:37:33,400 --> 00:37:36,400 Speaker 14: only having four players on the floor. Let's not forget 747 00:37:36,440 --> 00:37:40,560 Speaker 14: about that other Husker coach, the legendary Normandale and Dan. 748 00:37:40,680 --> 00:37:43,680 Speaker 14: You guys were talking about having your funeral in the 749 00:37:43,760 --> 00:37:48,040 Speaker 14: man cave on your beloved basketball court. The casket may 750 00:37:48,160 --> 00:37:52,320 Speaker 14: read former Western Kentucky Hilltopper finally. 751 00:37:52,080 --> 00:37:55,759 Speaker 3: Passes nice. 752 00:37:57,560 --> 00:38:02,480 Speaker 2: It's Eastern Kentucky. We weren't even Western Kentucky. They were good. 753 00:38:02,719 --> 00:38:06,360 Speaker 2: They were Eastern Kentucky. It's very good, Thank. 754 00:38:06,200 --> 00:38:06,640 Speaker 3: You, Chris. 755 00:38:07,360 --> 00:38:13,799 Speaker 2: Caleb Williams has submitted four trademark applications related to the 756 00:38:14,040 --> 00:38:20,960 Speaker 2: name Iceman, a logo name, and silhouettes that mimic Caleb 757 00:38:20,960 --> 00:38:26,799 Speaker 2: Williams poses he rolls left, jumps and completes a pass, 758 00:38:29,320 --> 00:38:35,360 Speaker 2: so George Gervin the Iceman. He has a problem with 759 00:38:35,400 --> 00:38:40,920 Speaker 2: this because he has filed for a trademark. He had 760 00:38:41,080 --> 00:38:45,680 Speaker 2: Iceman and Iceman forty four. That was his jersey number. 761 00:38:45,719 --> 00:38:51,200 Speaker 2: So four days after William's application was filed George Gervin. 762 00:38:52,280 --> 00:38:58,640 Speaker 2: His trademark application was also I guess submitted. But he's 763 00:38:58,680 --> 00:39:01,719 Speaker 2: been called the Iceman and that was first used in 764 00:39:01,960 --> 00:39:05,960 Speaker 2: uh nineteen seventy nine. I actually have the Iceman poster 765 00:39:08,080 --> 00:39:10,640 Speaker 2: and ice is he's sitting on a block of ice 766 00:39:11,239 --> 00:39:14,360 Speaker 2: and he's these basketballs you know, look like their ice 767 00:39:14,440 --> 00:39:18,080 Speaker 2: as well. It's great, great poster. But I sent me 768 00:39:18,160 --> 00:39:21,400 Speaker 2: that autographed it a couple of years ago. But I 769 00:39:21,440 --> 00:39:27,600 Speaker 2: guess there is a soccer player in Chelsea Raad Satan, Yeah, 770 00:39:27,600 --> 00:39:30,879 Speaker 2: Col Palmer, and he's called Iceman. H well, no, they'll 771 00:39:30,880 --> 00:39:32,320 Speaker 2: call him Cold Palmer. 772 00:39:32,480 --> 00:39:32,800 Speaker 3: Oh. 773 00:39:32,840 --> 00:39:35,840 Speaker 6: But his celebration was that sort of like I'm freezing 774 00:39:36,000 --> 00:39:38,480 Speaker 6: kind of thing because like every time he scores a goal, 775 00:39:38,520 --> 00:39:39,600 Speaker 6: he's like that was too cold. 776 00:39:39,840 --> 00:39:43,920 Speaker 2: Okay, So Caleb is imitating this soccer player called Palmer. 777 00:39:44,000 --> 00:39:44,480 Speaker 3: Yeah okay. 778 00:39:44,520 --> 00:39:47,320 Speaker 6: So when Palmer scores, he gives you the old shivers, 779 00:39:47,360 --> 00:39:49,400 Speaker 6: like who and so they call him Cold Palmer. 780 00:39:49,520 --> 00:39:49,920 Speaker 3: Okay. 781 00:39:52,280 --> 00:39:56,279 Speaker 2: I think Chuck Ledell, former MMA fighter, wasn't he known 782 00:39:56,320 --> 00:39:56,960 Speaker 2: as Iceman. 783 00:39:57,800 --> 00:40:00,239 Speaker 3: There's a lot of guys who were laying claim this 784 00:40:00,360 --> 00:40:02,280 Speaker 3: little naval pilot, Val Kilmer. 785 00:40:02,400 --> 00:40:05,800 Speaker 2: Val Kilmer, the original Iceman. Oh, j Yeah, I believe 786 00:40:06,920 --> 00:40:08,239 Speaker 2: what else, Paul, Actually. 787 00:40:08,000 --> 00:40:12,520 Speaker 4: The timeline would be George Gervin. First, the George Gervin's company, 788 00:40:12,719 --> 00:40:16,960 Speaker 4: Gervin Global Management, thought they had the nickname trademarked already. 789 00:40:17,080 --> 00:40:21,600 Speaker 4: They found out they never did. The confusion was a 790 00:40:21,680 --> 00:40:23,880 Speaker 4: death of a business associate who was tasked to do 791 00:40:23,920 --> 00:40:26,600 Speaker 4: this years ago and he didn't get it done. So 792 00:40:26,680 --> 00:40:29,640 Speaker 4: when Caleb Williams went in to do this, he had 793 00:40:29,640 --> 00:40:32,239 Speaker 4: the green light to do it, it was not already trademarked. 794 00:40:32,560 --> 00:40:35,520 Speaker 4: And when they realized that, they scrambled the Gervin people 795 00:40:35,640 --> 00:40:39,760 Speaker 4: to get Iceman and Ice forty four trademark. The nickname 796 00:40:39,800 --> 00:40:41,799 Speaker 4: was not self given by Caleb. Kind of the press 797 00:40:41,840 --> 00:40:44,680 Speaker 4: did it after he did the Cole Palmer thing. Yeah, 798 00:40:45,160 --> 00:40:47,719 Speaker 4: but he already took the logo and it's kind of 799 00:40:47,719 --> 00:40:50,360 Speaker 4: making maybe a clothing line out of this or other things. 800 00:40:50,480 --> 00:40:53,240 Speaker 2: Yeah, they're talking about jerseys and hats and sports equipment. 801 00:40:53,320 --> 00:41:00,440 Speaker 2: I wear posters, trading cards, sweatshirts. M. George Gervin is Iceman. 802 00:41:00,560 --> 00:41:00,759 Speaker 3: Yeah. 803 00:41:00,800 --> 00:41:03,640 Speaker 6: See, I'm looking a little deeper into the George Gervin situation. 804 00:41:03,719 --> 00:41:05,279 Speaker 6: You know, who had the rights to it that was 805 00:41:05,320 --> 00:41:07,359 Speaker 6: supposed to do it on his beat and didn't. 806 00:41:08,880 --> 00:41:09,960 Speaker 3: Alec Baum's parents. 807 00:41:10,239 --> 00:41:10,680 Speaker 5: Damn it. 808 00:41:11,239 --> 00:41:12,080 Speaker 2: No, that's. 809 00:41:13,360 --> 00:41:18,399 Speaker 6: I'm confusing my stories. Wow wow, yes, yes, okay, this is. 810 00:41:18,360 --> 00:41:19,319 Speaker 5: The question from the room. 811 00:41:19,760 --> 00:41:22,279 Speaker 4: If you were the judge in this case and had 812 00:41:22,320 --> 00:41:24,760 Speaker 4: to decide, how would you make your decision? 813 00:41:25,320 --> 00:41:30,200 Speaker 2: I would say, Iceman, You're the original Iceman. You get it. 814 00:41:32,800 --> 00:41:33,360 Speaker 3: Uh. 815 00:41:33,600 --> 00:41:37,600 Speaker 2: Cord jerned, But he did make he thought he had 816 00:41:37,640 --> 00:41:40,160 Speaker 2: trademarked it. It's not like he all of a sudden 817 00:41:40,200 --> 00:41:42,719 Speaker 2: go oh my gosh, I got a trademark that he 818 00:41:43,320 --> 00:41:46,480 Speaker 2: did think that he was filing the trademark papers. There 819 00:41:46,560 --> 00:41:49,360 Speaker 2: was a death and they weren't able to He did 820 00:41:49,440 --> 00:41:55,960 Speaker 2: not realize that. I would I would give it to Iceman. Yes, Pauline. 821 00:41:56,160 --> 00:41:59,360 Speaker 4: Some people use nicknames of people from the past. But 822 00:41:59,440 --> 00:42:02,080 Speaker 4: if I refer to you by your nickname and it's 823 00:42:02,120 --> 00:42:05,560 Speaker 4: more well known than your actual name, I think it's yours. 824 00:42:05,600 --> 00:42:08,759 Speaker 4: Tiger Woods. No one calls him Eldrick. No one says, hey, 825 00:42:08,760 --> 00:42:11,359 Speaker 4: George Gervin was on TV today. You say, I saw 826 00:42:11,400 --> 00:42:13,719 Speaker 4: Ice Gervin on the TV show. Yeah, I think that 827 00:42:13,760 --> 00:42:17,520 Speaker 4: would be the default judgment. No one goes Iceman. Williams 828 00:42:17,560 --> 00:42:20,279 Speaker 4: of the Bears. Yeah, no one says that yet. 829 00:42:20,360 --> 00:42:25,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, but Gervin has you know, he's got some kind 830 00:42:25,680 --> 00:42:28,839 Speaker 2: of documentation. He's got a poster that says Iceman on it. 831 00:42:29,520 --> 00:42:31,480 Speaker 2: I would just bring the poster to court. 832 00:42:31,280 --> 00:42:34,919 Speaker 3: Find him. I'm saying here it is that there's me. Yes, 833 00:42:35,560 --> 00:42:35,799 Speaker 3: I do. 834 00:42:35,960 --> 00:42:37,880 Speaker 6: I think there's something too. If you bring all of 835 00:42:37,880 --> 00:42:39,800 Speaker 6: them into court and line them up and ask the 836 00:42:39,880 --> 00:42:42,000 Speaker 6: jury which one of them is Iceman and they point 837 00:42:42,040 --> 00:42:44,799 Speaker 6: to George Gervin, They're like, okay, that's clearly you win. 838 00:42:45,239 --> 00:42:48,680 Speaker 2: You get the patent. You do a focus group, and 839 00:42:48,719 --> 00:42:51,720 Speaker 2: you bring the focus group in and say, all right, uh, 840 00:42:51,840 --> 00:42:55,000 Speaker 2: you line up Chuck Liddel, you line up Ice Gervan, 841 00:42:55,080 --> 00:42:58,320 Speaker 2: You line up Caleb Williams. You go, okay, who is Iceman? 842 00:42:59,239 --> 00:42:59,799 Speaker 3: And you point. 843 00:43:00,080 --> 00:43:05,360 Speaker 2: Now, if I'm Gervin, I'm wearing my uniform. I'd be 844 00:43:05,400 --> 00:43:09,040 Speaker 2: wearing my San Antonio Spurs jersey. Yes, Marvin, that said 845 00:43:09,080 --> 00:43:09,839 Speaker 2: Ice on the back. 846 00:43:09,960 --> 00:43:13,800 Speaker 7: Yes, Yes, it doesn't say Ice on the Chicago Bears uniform. 847 00:43:13,880 --> 00:43:14,440 Speaker 3: Now it doesn't. 848 00:43:14,640 --> 00:43:16,680 Speaker 5: One is Iceman. The other one is the guy that 849 00:43:16,719 --> 00:43:17,520 Speaker 5: pretends to be cold. 850 00:43:18,000 --> 00:43:19,720 Speaker 2: I would I would come in and do a finger 851 00:43:19,800 --> 00:43:23,279 Speaker 2: roll like I would do the little GERVI and finger 852 00:43:23,360 --> 00:43:30,520 Speaker 2: roll there. Maybe grows hair back, get a fro back, Yes, Pauli. 853 00:43:30,520 --> 00:43:33,360 Speaker 4: It's like if I said, oh, I saw I was 854 00:43:33,400 --> 00:43:36,680 Speaker 4: watching NFL Network and LT was being interviewed. I'm referring 855 00:43:36,680 --> 00:43:37,000 Speaker 4: to who. 856 00:43:37,760 --> 00:43:40,960 Speaker 2: Well, that's different because that could be Lawrence Taylor led 857 00:43:41,040 --> 00:43:44,360 Speaker 2: Danian Tomlinson, right, But those are just initials. 858 00:43:44,480 --> 00:43:47,640 Speaker 4: I wonder if either trademarked that for clothes or merchandise. 859 00:43:49,600 --> 00:43:52,120 Speaker 2: I don't know, but Abdul Carter also wanted to be 860 00:43:52,200 --> 00:43:55,120 Speaker 2: called LT as well. It's weird. He wanted his number 861 00:43:55,160 --> 00:43:58,239 Speaker 2: and he'd liked to be called LT as well. I 862 00:43:58,239 --> 00:44:02,400 Speaker 2: think he's changing his number again. Is Abdual Carter changing 863 00:44:02,440 --> 00:44:04,920 Speaker 2: his number? Or did I make that up. 864 00:44:06,880 --> 00:44:06,920 Speaker 3: To? 865 00:44:07,880 --> 00:44:08,040 Speaker 14: No? 866 00:44:08,040 --> 00:44:09,800 Speaker 2: No, no, no, he can't do fifty six. 867 00:44:10,640 --> 00:44:11,839 Speaker 3: But I don't know. 868 00:44:12,200 --> 00:44:15,239 Speaker 2: For some reason, I thought maybe he was changing he 869 00:44:15,320 --> 00:44:17,920 Speaker 2: was changing something. All right, let me take a break. 870 00:44:18,680 --> 00:44:22,359 Speaker 2: It's time for sausage and peppers. We also have our 871 00:44:22,400 --> 00:44:26,160 Speaker 2: little batting helmets with ice cream in it, the nacho 872 00:44:26,719 --> 00:44:30,960 Speaker 2: cheese dip. We have crab dogs. Is that what it is? 873 00:44:31,640 --> 00:44:32,840 Speaker 3: Oh boy? 874 00:44:33,000 --> 00:44:36,000 Speaker 2: You guys don't come in sick on Monday or with 875 00:44:36,080 --> 00:44:36,919 Speaker 2: a stomach ache. 876 00:44:36,920 --> 00:44:39,160 Speaker 8: All right, Todd, we'll try to avoid that. 877 00:44:39,239 --> 00:44:43,080 Speaker 2: All right, everything in moderation. That's the problem. 878 00:44:43,280 --> 00:44:44,799 Speaker 8: It's very easy to say those words.
