You can 12 00:00:38,880 --> 00:00:41,959 Speaker 2: go get that for your off season listening pleasure. We'll 13 00:00:42,000 --> 00:00:45,440 Speaker 2: probably have a very special episode like they used to 14 00:00:45,479 --> 00:00:48,559 Speaker 2: do on television. It's a very special episode of an 15 00:00:48,600 --> 00:00:51,440 Speaker 2: iwatcher Flex post Draft because the draft is this week, 16 00:00:51,560 --> 00:00:52,000 Speaker 2: Dan Barr. 17 00:00:52,159 --> 00:00:54,400 Speaker 3: Not those sort of episodes that you would get where 18 00:00:54,400 --> 00:00:56,280 Speaker 3: you're like I like it when this is a sitcom 19 00:00:56,320 --> 00:00:59,480 Speaker 3: and not like a weird creepy story. These are actually good, 20 00:00:59,640 --> 00:01:02,960 Speaker 3: very episodes. But it is a great week in sports. 21 00:01:03,000 --> 00:01:07,400 Speaker 3: The argument I think actually it strengthens the spring window 22 00:01:07,760 --> 00:01:10,600 Speaker 3: with the NFL Draft, and you're talking about greatest times 23 00:01:10,640 --> 00:01:12,959 Speaker 3: of the year if you want to bridge the Masters 24 00:01:13,000 --> 00:01:15,360 Speaker 3: to the NFL Draft, and then you can a bunch 25 00:01:15,400 --> 00:01:18,440 Speaker 3: in opening day on the NCAA tournament. I think that 26 00:01:18,560 --> 00:01:22,119 Speaker 3: even adds to the stronger punch than what you would 27 00:01:22,120 --> 00:01:24,240 Speaker 3: get in early September with the start of football season 28 00:01:24,240 --> 00:01:24,920 Speaker 3: in the Pennant race. 29 00:01:24,920 --> 00:01:27,760 Speaker 2: Now it's a huge run. Obviously, the NBA Playoffs in 30 00:01:27,800 --> 00:01:30,679 Speaker 2: full effect, plenty of that. Today will pick out some 31 00:01:30,880 --> 00:01:35,120 Speaker 2: isolated circumstance in the NFL Draft where there are some 32 00:01:35,920 --> 00:01:40,240 Speaker 2: interesting selection points involving the players that are on the 33 00:01:40,280 --> 00:01:43,240 Speaker 2: board in the entry system and a couple of guys 34 00:01:43,360 --> 00:01:45,840 Speaker 2: veterans that are still swirling out there. No, I'm not 35 00:01:45,880 --> 00:01:49,360 Speaker 2: talking about Lamar Jackson and Aaron Rodgers, although we may 36 00:01:49,400 --> 00:01:52,080 Speaker 2: have to mention that do a little bit along the process, 37 00:01:52,120 --> 00:01:55,040 Speaker 2: but some trade rumors that are still out there that 38 00:01:55,080 --> 00:01:59,240 Speaker 2: may impact some of the prognostication right bleeds back in 39 00:02:00,600 --> 00:02:04,480 Speaker 2: be Remiss. We talked about it, and that was the date. 40 00:02:04,960 --> 00:02:08,760 Speaker 2: The timeline that I threw up three six hundred and 41 00:02:08,840 --> 00:02:13,600 Speaker 2: forty six days going into last night when at the 42 00:02:13,680 --> 00:02:17,840 Speaker 2: cryptis part of a day night doubleheader separate admission, separate floors, 43 00:02:17,880 --> 00:02:20,919 Speaker 2: separate teams, and really I want to watch the time 44 00:02:21,000 --> 00:02:25,000 Speaker 2: Labs video of the Crypto dot Com workers from Friday 45 00:02:25,080 --> 00:02:28,440 Speaker 2: night with the overtime win by the Kings over the 46 00:02:28,480 --> 00:02:33,200 Speaker 2: Oilers into early morning, right very early game for the 47 00:02:33,200 --> 00:02:37,960 Speaker 2: Clippers as they fell into the Suns once again, and 48 00:02:38,000 --> 00:02:40,480 Speaker 2: then turning it back over so the Lakers get to 49 00:02:40,520 --> 00:02:43,280 Speaker 2: have their glorious return in front of the home crowd 50 00:02:43,360 --> 00:02:45,560 Speaker 2: for the first time since twenty thirteen. 51 00:02:46,040 --> 00:02:49,079 Speaker 3: The changeover is similar to when you have those Thursday 52 00:02:49,120 --> 00:02:52,080 Speaker 3: Friday games the NCAA tournament. We have to you have 53 00:02:52,120 --> 00:02:53,920 Speaker 3: the first two games and you got to kick everybody 54 00:02:53,919 --> 00:02:56,320 Speaker 3: out of the arena because then everybody has tickets for 55 00:02:56,400 --> 00:02:58,720 Speaker 3: the night session. And that's what I felt like was 56 00:02:58,760 --> 00:03:02,400 Speaker 3: going on at Staples this past weekend, especially on Saturday, 57 00:03:02,600 --> 00:03:07,320 Speaker 3: with the two games there. But Mike, we can't cherish 58 00:03:07,360 --> 00:03:10,040 Speaker 3: these days long because once the Clippers new arena opens 59 00:03:10,120 --> 00:03:12,359 Speaker 3: up in a couple of years, there's gonna be one 60 00:03:12,440 --> 00:03:15,480 Speaker 3: less event at Crypto dot Com, so there will be 61 00:03:15,919 --> 00:03:19,480 Speaker 3: no opportunity for the tripleheader like we have, so cherish 62 00:03:19,520 --> 00:03:21,840 Speaker 3: this moment. If you are in LA sports fan. 63 00:03:21,840 --> 00:03:23,560 Speaker 2: Well, the other part you need to cherish is that 64 00:03:23,560 --> 00:03:24,640 Speaker 2: they're actually in the playoffs. 65 00:03:24,639 --> 00:03:25,239 Speaker 3: No, that's good point. 66 00:03:25,360 --> 00:03:29,320 Speaker 2: See, this team is probably gonna be changing just a 67 00:03:29,320 --> 00:03:32,639 Speaker 2: wee bit, and we'll get into the injuries and all 68 00:03:32,680 --> 00:03:35,000 Speaker 2: the secondary stories, because take it away from some really 69 00:03:35,040 --> 00:03:37,360 Speaker 2: good stuff. Something you and I been going back and 70 00:03:37,400 --> 00:03:39,520 Speaker 2: forth over the course of the week and early this 71 00:03:39,600 --> 00:03:43,840 Speaker 2: morning about because the NBA playoffs may their storylines galore, 72 00:03:44,520 --> 00:03:46,360 Speaker 2: and in this case, you got the Lakers with a 73 00:03:46,400 --> 00:03:49,480 Speaker 2: one to eleven, one oh one win over Memphis. John 74 00:03:49,520 --> 00:03:53,160 Speaker 2: Moran has the massive return in the fourth quarter. Who 75 00:03:53,160 --> 00:03:54,120 Speaker 2: cares too little? 76 00:03:54,360 --> 00:03:55,160 Speaker 3: Yeah, too late? 77 00:03:55,520 --> 00:03:58,920 Speaker 2: Right, They get blown out of the gate to start 78 00:03:59,000 --> 00:04:02,560 Speaker 2: the game. Really one of the most painful, one of those. 79 00:04:03,400 --> 00:04:05,160 Speaker 2: If you were Duke, you would be saying, throw the 80 00:04:05,240 --> 00:04:07,880 Speaker 2: damn towel and we'll come back and fight another day. 81 00:04:07,960 --> 00:04:12,520 Speaker 2: Thirty five nine was the score after the first better 82 00:04:12,560 --> 00:04:16,000 Speaker 2: showing in the second, so you had a fifty three 83 00:04:16,560 --> 00:04:19,599 Speaker 2: thirty seven halftime lead for the Lakers. But all it 84 00:04:19,760 --> 00:04:22,120 Speaker 2: was was the build up to see how it would 85 00:04:22,120 --> 00:04:25,240 Speaker 2: all work. Because very early in the third quarter we 86 00:04:25,360 --> 00:04:29,240 Speaker 2: get the shot to the nether regions scene and heard 87 00:04:29,320 --> 00:04:32,560 Speaker 2: around the world, and now it becomes the well intent 88 00:04:32,640 --> 00:04:34,719 Speaker 2: and is there a suspension, because that's where we're at 89 00:04:34,960 --> 00:04:38,000 Speaker 2: everything is Is there gonna be a suspension? Dylan Brooks 90 00:04:38,279 --> 00:04:41,640 Speaker 2: did not back the talk out of game two seven 91 00:04:41,760 --> 00:04:44,920 Speaker 2: points to rebounds three of thirteen for the field before 92 00:04:44,960 --> 00:04:49,080 Speaker 2: getting ejected, going and swiping, And this is where you 93 00:04:49,200 --> 00:04:51,719 Speaker 2: decide is he a dirty player? And did he try 94 00:04:51,760 --> 00:04:54,360 Speaker 2: to hit him or was he reaching for a ball 95 00:04:54,400 --> 00:04:57,680 Speaker 2: on a crossover? I tend to lean with the ladder. 96 00:04:57,760 --> 00:05:00,200 Speaker 2: The problem is when you start talking as you did, 97 00:05:00,440 --> 00:05:02,800 Speaker 2: and you're having a rough night and you're getting blown out, yea, 98 00:05:02,920 --> 00:05:04,760 Speaker 2: the benefit of the doubt goes out the window. 99 00:05:04,800 --> 00:05:06,520 Speaker 3: Yeah. And as much as I wanted to say that 100 00:05:06,640 --> 00:05:10,920 Speaker 3: Lebron was acting, I think any of us who have 101 00:05:10,960 --> 00:05:13,799 Speaker 3: been in that situation, I do know the possible pain 102 00:05:13,839 --> 00:05:14,800 Speaker 3: that could come from it. 103 00:05:15,320 --> 00:05:19,479 Speaker 2: You have a two year old now, so I mean, look, occasionally. 104 00:05:19,040 --> 00:05:23,320 Speaker 3: You have to wear a cup at home, Staddy, and 105 00:05:23,400 --> 00:05:26,880 Speaker 3: you're sitting in a chair. It's like, oh no, yeah, yeah, yeah, 106 00:05:26,880 --> 00:05:30,600 Speaker 3: there's there's dangers for sure. But I actually agree with 107 00:05:30,640 --> 00:05:32,320 Speaker 3: you as well. I don't think that it was malicias. 108 00:05:32,560 --> 00:05:35,360 Speaker 3: I do not think that Dylan Brooks was looking for 109 00:05:35,400 --> 00:05:39,320 Speaker 3: an opportunity to hit Lebron James in that area. 110 00:05:39,440 --> 00:05:41,200 Speaker 2: I thought it was a half assed wipe at the ball. 111 00:05:41,800 --> 00:05:43,280 Speaker 3: Yeah, it could have been bad Defaul. 112 00:05:43,360 --> 00:05:46,479 Speaker 2: Yeah, just kind of like, all right, I'm gonna agitate 113 00:05:46,520 --> 00:05:48,640 Speaker 2: you just to try to upset your rhythm. 114 00:05:48,880 --> 00:05:51,159 Speaker 3: Yeah that could have that That very well could have been. 115 00:05:51,160 --> 00:05:53,800 Speaker 3: The upsetting of the rhythm is really what I think 116 00:05:53,839 --> 00:05:56,320 Speaker 3: what Dylan Brooks's comments did after game too. It's it's 117 00:05:56,320 --> 00:06:01,520 Speaker 3: funny because this conversation of bulletin board materials up. Even 118 00:06:01,560 --> 00:06:04,720 Speaker 3: Cavino and Rich were talking about it during the week 119 00:06:04,760 --> 00:06:07,560 Speaker 3: here at Fox Sports Radio, and I thought at the time, like, 120 00:06:08,920 --> 00:06:11,960 Speaker 3: I don't think that bulletin board material really works except 121 00:06:12,000 --> 00:06:13,680 Speaker 3: for me the first five minutes of the game, maybe 122 00:06:13,720 --> 00:06:15,760 Speaker 3: the first quarter of a game for a team. I 123 00:06:15,800 --> 00:06:19,400 Speaker 3: just don't think of the third quarter things. You remember 124 00:06:19,440 --> 00:06:22,640 Speaker 3: what somebody said two games ago, or a game ago, 125 00:06:22,800 --> 00:06:24,920 Speaker 3: or after the post game. I think that the game 126 00:06:25,000 --> 00:06:26,960 Speaker 3: is kind of settled in at that point. But what 127 00:06:27,000 --> 00:06:30,719 Speaker 3: I do think bulletin board material does is it focuses 128 00:06:30,720 --> 00:06:32,960 Speaker 3: a team. It allows the Lakers to not have a 129 00:06:33,000 --> 00:06:35,520 Speaker 3: wandering eye and trying to look ahead to a possible 130 00:06:35,520 --> 00:06:39,240 Speaker 3: Warriors Kings matchup when they haven't taken care of the Grizzlies. 131 00:06:39,520 --> 00:06:43,760 Speaker 3: So now Memphis makes sure that the Lakers target is 132 00:06:43,880 --> 00:06:47,240 Speaker 3: solely on them and not maybe getting caught up in 133 00:06:47,279 --> 00:06:50,880 Speaker 3: this other stuff or maybe letting Lebron's mind wander and 134 00:06:51,040 --> 00:06:53,680 Speaker 3: trying to win an NBA championship, and that's how you 135 00:06:53,720 --> 00:06:56,680 Speaker 3: knock them out. The Lakers seemed focused last night. That's 136 00:06:56,720 --> 00:06:58,600 Speaker 3: what happens when you start out thirty eight to nine, 137 00:06:58,640 --> 00:07:01,080 Speaker 3: and the Grizzlies were anything but not to poo pooh 138 00:07:01,160 --> 00:07:03,680 Speaker 3: Jahn Morant's twenty two straight points in the fourth quarter, 139 00:07:03,680 --> 00:07:06,200 Speaker 3: because not every team could do that. I just I 140 00:07:06,200 --> 00:07:11,520 Speaker 3: don't have I am not impressed by certain events when 141 00:07:11,520 --> 00:07:13,800 Speaker 3: your team is down double digits like we were. The 142 00:07:13,840 --> 00:07:17,560 Speaker 3: Grizzlies got within, you know, like twelve points, and we're like, 143 00:07:17,840 --> 00:07:21,040 Speaker 3: my goodness, and yeah, on the on the landscape of it, 144 00:07:21,280 --> 00:07:23,800 Speaker 3: huge deal because the Lakers were up thirty points and 145 00:07:23,920 --> 00:07:26,440 Speaker 3: you know, in the game. But when you're looking at 146 00:07:26,600 --> 00:07:28,680 Speaker 3: where you are in a playoff contest, where you are 147 00:07:28,720 --> 00:07:32,280 Speaker 3: as a team, to me, it's just it's so hollow 148 00:07:32,320 --> 00:07:35,280 Speaker 3: because of you lose a game three in a playoff 149 00:07:35,320 --> 00:07:37,480 Speaker 3: series where you need now you need to win a 150 00:07:37,480 --> 00:07:39,880 Speaker 3: game in LA and where as great as jam Morant 151 00:07:39,880 --> 00:07:41,960 Speaker 3: may be, and that may be the other story, Mike 152 00:07:42,040 --> 00:07:44,680 Speaker 3: of this is why John Morant can't get caught into 153 00:07:44,680 --> 00:07:46,400 Speaker 3: that other stuff because he's one of the few players 154 00:07:46,400 --> 00:07:49,800 Speaker 3: that can score twenty two points straight. The Lakers are just, 155 00:07:49,800 --> 00:07:53,320 Speaker 3: to me, extremely focused and set, and they win by ten, 156 00:07:53,440 --> 00:07:54,920 Speaker 3: but it was never really that close. 157 00:07:55,080 --> 00:07:57,120 Speaker 2: Well, and I think that's the thing, right, you and 158 00:07:57,200 --> 00:07:59,440 Speaker 2: I doing the I Watch Flex podcast, and in a 159 00:07:59,440 --> 00:08:03,000 Speaker 2: lot of the l discussions that we have, you don't 160 00:08:03,040 --> 00:08:07,000 Speaker 2: have the you know, the final score is not indicative 161 00:08:07,040 --> 00:08:08,680 Speaker 2: of how a game was played, right, You got some 162 00:08:08,760 --> 00:08:13,040 Speaker 2: empty stats, some big runs, playing zone defense, whatever. Here's 163 00:08:13,080 --> 00:08:15,760 Speaker 2: a forty yard completion, Well was a five yard swing pass, 164 00:08:15,800 --> 00:08:18,000 Speaker 2: and that it was just don't give up the end zone, 165 00:08:18,320 --> 00:08:21,440 Speaker 2: keep him in bounds, let clock run and move here. 166 00:08:21,880 --> 00:08:25,520 Speaker 2: Ten point game. People that didn't watch it didn't experience 167 00:08:25,640 --> 00:08:30,400 Speaker 2: that onslaught in the first quarter. Plus I have no 168 00:08:30,520 --> 00:08:33,760 Speaker 2: idea exactly how this played out because they're gonna look 169 00:08:33,760 --> 00:08:36,760 Speaker 2: at the final score. They're gonna see Jahn Morant had 170 00:08:36,800 --> 00:08:40,199 Speaker 2: that scoring run. Listen to a little lebron in postgame. 171 00:08:40,280 --> 00:08:42,440 Speaker 2: You had two different things he had to deal with 172 00:08:42,480 --> 00:08:46,280 Speaker 2: most questions related to the Dylan Brooks incident, and a 173 00:08:46,280 --> 00:08:49,400 Speaker 2: couple of times he alluded to, you know, all through 174 00:08:49,480 --> 00:08:52,480 Speaker 2: my career certain individuals, and then he paused, like I 175 00:08:52,520 --> 00:08:55,000 Speaker 2: can't do it, and then he would go a little frost. 176 00:08:55,080 --> 00:08:57,360 Speaker 2: It's like I can't. Like it was a good acting job, right, 177 00:08:57,400 --> 00:08:59,720 Speaker 2: he has he has appeared he knows how to milk 178 00:08:59,760 --> 00:09:02,160 Speaker 2: him moment as well as anyone and he and he 179 00:09:02,240 --> 00:09:05,800 Speaker 2: certainly did for effect. Right He didn't, you know, do 180 00:09:05,880 --> 00:09:09,040 Speaker 2: the hahaha you lose kind of thing. He did that 181 00:09:09,080 --> 00:09:12,080 Speaker 2: on the court. But the other the other question they 182 00:09:12,080 --> 00:09:14,719 Speaker 2: had was about John Moran and playing defense, like, well, 183 00:09:14,720 --> 00:09:16,520 Speaker 2: how is it going to be different whatever. He's like, well, 184 00:09:17,280 --> 00:09:19,439 Speaker 2: it's late and if a guy gets hot like that, 185 00:09:19,840 --> 00:09:23,320 Speaker 2: guy's gonna get hot like that. He made they specifically 186 00:09:23,320 --> 00:09:25,679 Speaker 2: becaues he made six three point shots. The guy that 187 00:09:25,720 --> 00:09:28,920 Speaker 2: normally is slashing to the rim is gonna make six 188 00:09:29,040 --> 00:09:31,800 Speaker 2: three point shots. It's just gonna be his now, which 189 00:09:31,880 --> 00:09:34,079 Speaker 2: means you've got to take care of everything else, which 190 00:09:34,120 --> 00:09:40,080 Speaker 2: is how teams have approached and sometimes wrongheadedly tried to 191 00:09:40,120 --> 00:09:42,640 Speaker 2: approach Lebron James during his career. Right because he can 192 00:09:42,720 --> 00:09:45,560 Speaker 2: make the pass. He can make that that going and 193 00:09:45,840 --> 00:09:48,560 Speaker 2: Jah will get there hopefully. Yeah, you know, because he's 194 00:09:48,600 --> 00:09:51,000 Speaker 2: one of those guys we love to watch play. So 195 00:09:51,400 --> 00:09:53,440 Speaker 2: this is a reminder. Played this on a loop in 196 00:09:53,480 --> 00:09:56,319 Speaker 2: your house and don't be a knucklehead, don't get caught 197 00:09:56,400 --> 00:09:57,160 Speaker 2: up in the rest of it. 198 00:09:57,440 --> 00:10:00,200 Speaker 3: And we've seen joh do this and they're playing win 199 00:10:00,280 --> 00:10:03,480 Speaker 3: a few years ago against Golden State. Like when you 200 00:10:03,600 --> 00:10:06,439 Speaker 3: see what he can do on an individual, you know basis, 201 00:10:06,960 --> 00:10:10,240 Speaker 3: it's pretty impressive, and again, few NBA players can do it. 202 00:10:10,559 --> 00:10:14,360 Speaker 3: But there's also something of having these performances and as 203 00:10:14,400 --> 00:10:17,960 Speaker 3: a as a Bucks fan, watching the Bucks in game 204 00:10:18,040 --> 00:10:21,560 Speaker 3: two where it was just a party of threes and 205 00:10:21,760 --> 00:10:24,520 Speaker 3: you know, Joe Ingles is on fire and Pat Connington's 206 00:10:24,640 --> 00:10:27,640 Speaker 3: nailing threes and then you're watching bricks being thrown up 207 00:10:27,679 --> 00:10:30,960 Speaker 3: in game three. It's one thing to do that when 208 00:10:31,000 --> 00:10:34,079 Speaker 3: you're up twenty five points, because it's almost the same 209 00:10:34,120 --> 00:10:35,760 Speaker 3: as when you're down twenty. What do you have to lose? 210 00:10:35,840 --> 00:10:37,480 Speaker 2: No, it's it, you know, just putting the ball up, 211 00:10:37,480 --> 00:10:38,800 Speaker 2: you got an open look, take the shot. 212 00:10:38,880 --> 00:10:42,120 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, there's not there's not there's not a lot 213 00:10:42,160 --> 00:10:44,160 Speaker 3: of pressure to it. There's nothing to lose in that 214 00:10:44,240 --> 00:10:47,040 Speaker 3: sort of scenario. Not trying to downplay again what John did, 215 00:10:47,040 --> 00:10:49,600 Speaker 3: but let's take into context of what's really at stake here, 216 00:10:49,640 --> 00:10:51,760 Speaker 3: Like this story is the Lakers got out to a 217 00:10:51,760 --> 00:10:55,559 Speaker 3: thirty eight to nine lead, you know, and Dylan Brooks 218 00:10:55,559 --> 00:10:58,840 Speaker 3: gets ejected in a game, and Dylan Brooks again continues 219 00:10:58,880 --> 00:11:01,480 Speaker 3: to really be the story because I think he kept 220 00:11:01,480 --> 00:11:05,079 Speaker 3: the Lakers focused. I think those comments focused. It allowed 221 00:11:05,160 --> 00:11:07,080 Speaker 3: Lebron on the team to be focused and not to 222 00:11:07,200 --> 00:11:10,880 Speaker 3: wander off. And and and obviously the Grizzlies as a 223 00:11:10,920 --> 00:11:13,800 Speaker 3: team and getting Job back for the game weren't ready 224 00:11:13,840 --> 00:11:16,079 Speaker 3: for that moment or ready to back up their teammate. Well, 225 00:11:16,080 --> 00:11:18,640 Speaker 3: all the Lakers were ready to have Lebron's back and 226 00:11:18,760 --> 00:11:20,840 Speaker 3: ready to play that game. And that was the difference 227 00:11:20,920 --> 00:11:21,280 Speaker 3: last night. 228 00:11:21,320 --> 00:11:24,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think as you talk about focus and all 229 00:11:24,840 --> 00:11:29,360 Speaker 2: of that, you're looking at a media sensation that Dylan 230 00:11:29,360 --> 00:11:32,880 Speaker 2: Brooks caused, right, just it was a great sound bite 231 00:11:33,000 --> 00:11:35,760 Speaker 2: and it was a great look. Right, anytime you're wearing 232 00:11:35,760 --> 00:11:38,360 Speaker 2: a chain that has your initials on it, yep, that 233 00:11:38,520 --> 00:11:41,720 Speaker 2: hangs like it would be a lower third graphic on 234 00:11:41,800 --> 00:11:45,959 Speaker 2: a television show, and you had the glass was an. 235 00:11:46,040 --> 00:11:49,320 Speaker 3: XFL logo on a nicely day. Yes, that's what I 236 00:11:49,320 --> 00:11:50,600 Speaker 3: thought the XFL. 237 00:11:50,760 --> 00:11:52,960 Speaker 2: There, there you have it, But just the idea that 238 00:11:53,600 --> 00:11:56,120 Speaker 2: you have those comments that get played at not because 239 00:11:56,120 --> 00:11:59,480 Speaker 2: they're funny, right, they're talking about poking the whatever. I 240 00:11:59,520 --> 00:12:02,679 Speaker 2: agree paid for great comedy, and I think that's the 241 00:12:02,760 --> 00:12:05,360 Speaker 2: kind of thing. You know, Lebron in the initial response 242 00:12:05,440 --> 00:12:07,760 Speaker 2: to it after the game, it was like, all right, 243 00:12:07,880 --> 00:12:11,840 Speaker 2: nothing I haven't seen before, which was really his analysis 244 00:12:11,880 --> 00:12:14,640 Speaker 2: post game three. And it's again because of all this 245 00:12:14,679 --> 00:12:16,760 Speaker 2: stuff going on as Staple Center, the fact that we're 246 00:12:16,760 --> 00:12:19,040 Speaker 2: now a week in and we're just three games in, 247 00:12:19,400 --> 00:12:22,400 Speaker 2: and this the way the scheduling has to work is ridiculous. 248 00:12:22,480 --> 00:12:24,880 Speaker 2: But you look at Davis, you look at James, between 249 00:12:24,960 --> 00:12:28,920 Speaker 2: them fifty six points. Russell, even though he's struggling from 250 00:12:28,960 --> 00:12:32,520 Speaker 2: the field, still had seventeen and seven for you. So 251 00:12:32,800 --> 00:12:36,760 Speaker 2: and Austin Reeves is everybody's new favorite hero. And Ruey 252 00:12:36,800 --> 00:12:40,160 Speaker 2: Hotcha Murray has stepped up in big Spots film and 253 00:12:40,320 --> 00:12:43,319 Speaker 2: he's found a role guy that was on a squad 254 00:12:43,400 --> 00:12:47,920 Speaker 2: that was really going nowhere and underutilize. And this goes 255 00:12:47,960 --> 00:12:51,120 Speaker 2: back to you know, you're getting someone's doghouse or an 256 00:12:51,200 --> 00:12:54,440 Speaker 2: organization's doghouse, and you never really get a chance even 257 00:12:54,440 --> 00:12:57,640 Speaker 2: though you were a high first round pick. The blossom. 258 00:12:57,679 --> 00:13:01,079 Speaker 2: Now he comes here, no expectations, but elaborate on the 259 00:13:02,120 --> 00:13:04,480 Speaker 2: what Brooks did for them. They it took all the 260 00:13:04,520 --> 00:13:09,600 Speaker 2: media attention from the Lakers are old, the Lakers can't play. Yeah, 261 00:13:09,640 --> 00:13:12,240 Speaker 2: that win or that game was great, But how much 262 00:13:12,320 --> 00:13:15,040 Speaker 2: like all of the narratives that were surrounding the Lakers 263 00:13:15,080 --> 00:13:18,440 Speaker 2: as a unit went away because it all became how 264 00:13:18,520 --> 00:13:22,760 Speaker 2: they gonna respond to those tough comments? How is Lebron 265 00:13:22,840 --> 00:13:26,360 Speaker 2: gonna take up for forty? Is Lebron gonna go for fifty? 266 00:13:26,920 --> 00:13:29,000 Speaker 2: All of those say like it was no longer about 267 00:13:29,440 --> 00:13:32,120 Speaker 2: any of the negatives that have surrounded this team and 268 00:13:32,200 --> 00:13:35,320 Speaker 2: the questions that we've had game to game pretty much 269 00:13:35,360 --> 00:13:36,960 Speaker 2: since the season started in October. 270 00:13:37,080 --> 00:13:39,400 Speaker 3: There have also been times, are guys, you see this 271 00:13:39,440 --> 00:13:42,559 Speaker 3: in the NFL, And the first one that pops to 272 00:13:42,640 --> 00:13:45,600 Speaker 3: mind is when Joey Porter and Jeremy Stevens got into 273 00:13:45,640 --> 00:13:48,400 Speaker 3: it at Super Bowl forty Seahawks Steelers and it was 274 00:13:48,440 --> 00:13:50,760 Speaker 3: such a back and forth that nobody was talking about 275 00:13:51,040 --> 00:13:54,599 Speaker 3: second year quarterback Ben Roethlisberger making this start in the 276 00:13:54,640 --> 00:13:57,120 Speaker 3: Super Bowl, Like, no, it was, it was zero pressure 277 00:13:57,160 --> 00:13:59,640 Speaker 3: on him. There are times when guys will stir stuff 278 00:13:59,679 --> 00:14:03,320 Speaker 3: up because you maybe want to protect someone else from 279 00:14:03,360 --> 00:14:06,240 Speaker 3: maybe being the focus. To your point, I don't think 280 00:14:06,280 --> 00:14:08,320 Speaker 3: that that was the case though with John Morant, And 281 00:14:08,320 --> 00:14:10,760 Speaker 3: I think John Moran's a big enough boy to do 282 00:14:10,880 --> 00:14:14,080 Speaker 3: so to you know, be like, hey, I can handle it. 283 00:14:14,480 --> 00:14:16,480 Speaker 3: You know, I've done a lot of things in this 284 00:14:16,559 --> 00:14:18,800 Speaker 3: league that other people, you know, can only dream of. 285 00:14:19,800 --> 00:14:24,600 Speaker 3: So so he's he's fine where he is. I think 286 00:14:24,680 --> 00:14:26,880 Speaker 3: in you know, three years, we're gonna sit back and 287 00:14:27,000 --> 00:14:30,600 Speaker 3: laugh at the Dylan Brooks thing. But you just those 288 00:14:30,680 --> 00:14:34,880 Speaker 3: comments only served Dylan Brooks, Like now that we're at 289 00:14:34,880 --> 00:14:37,200 Speaker 3: this point, we see what happened in Game three, they 290 00:14:37,240 --> 00:14:40,480 Speaker 3: only served him for his purpose there. It didn't provide 291 00:14:40,520 --> 00:14:43,200 Speaker 3: the team with any added motivation. I think it focused 292 00:14:43,200 --> 00:14:46,240 Speaker 3: the Lakers more. I don't think that it helped take 293 00:14:46,280 --> 00:14:48,280 Speaker 3: some of the spotlight off of John Morant because John 294 00:14:48,320 --> 00:14:51,480 Speaker 3: Morant didn't even play in Game two, and so we 295 00:14:51,480 --> 00:14:53,200 Speaker 3: didn't even who's going to play in Game three until 296 00:14:53,360 --> 00:14:56,480 Speaker 3: game time before. It now looks as a very self 297 00:14:56,680 --> 00:15:00,240 Speaker 3: serving sort of motive and completely backfire to the Grizzly. 298 00:15:00,240 --> 00:15:04,240 Speaker 2: Everybody knows who Dylan Brooks is now good. Sure, absolutely, 299 00:15:05,160 --> 00:15:08,240 Speaker 2: he upped his his Q rating and maybe that'll get 300 00:15:08,280 --> 00:15:11,160 Speaker 2: him an endorsement or two, or at least another free 301 00:15:11,320 --> 00:15:12,280 Speaker 2: gold chain or something. 302 00:15:12,280 --> 00:15:14,240 Speaker 3: I like the character of it, you know. I like 303 00:15:14,360 --> 00:15:17,600 Speaker 3: when you have certain different guys and I don't have 304 00:15:17,640 --> 00:15:19,080 Speaker 3: a dog in the fight, so I can sit there 305 00:15:19,080 --> 00:15:21,400 Speaker 3: and watch this. But Laker fans hate him. I'm sure 306 00:15:21,480 --> 00:15:24,400 Speaker 3: Grizzly fans love what he's doing. Maybe they're getting a 307 00:15:24,480 --> 00:15:29,640 Speaker 3: little relationship. Yeah, is this really serving us at this point? 308 00:15:30,600 --> 00:15:33,160 Speaker 3: But yeah, that's the question. But I do you think 309 00:15:33,200 --> 00:15:37,640 Speaker 3: he's actually on a hole? It's actually good for what 310 00:15:37,920 --> 00:15:39,560 Speaker 3: is going on, even though it may not be good 311 00:15:39,600 --> 00:15:40,960 Speaker 3: for the Memphis Grizzlies. 312 00:15:41,320 --> 00:15:42,920 Speaker 2: I think it's good for the league too, to have 313 00:15:43,040 --> 00:15:45,720 Speaker 2: more characters. Yeah, he needs to come and back it 314 00:15:45,840 --> 00:15:48,200 Speaker 2: up and have a better game than he did. But 315 00:15:48,560 --> 00:15:53,440 Speaker 2: his teammates clearly didn't come to play again over thirty 316 00:15:53,520 --> 00:15:57,640 Speaker 2: six hundred days since that last Laker playoff home game, 317 00:15:57,720 --> 00:16:02,440 Speaker 2: and boyt it really got loud fans's escalated quickly. 318 00:16:02,640 --> 00:16:04,560 Speaker 3: That's the other factor is you allowed the home crowd 319 00:16:05,240 --> 00:16:07,120 Speaker 3: to have some of the its here for a crowd 320 00:16:07,160 --> 00:16:09,360 Speaker 3: that we know has left a lot to be desired 321 00:16:09,400 --> 00:16:09,840 Speaker 3: at times. 322 00:16:10,160 --> 00:16:13,280 Speaker 2: I would have liked a little, you know, mic on 323 00:16:13,880 --> 00:16:16,720 Speaker 2: Lebron whatever he had to say to Brooks before the game, 324 00:16:17,000 --> 00:16:19,440 Speaker 2: because he did approach him. Yes, there were some words. 325 00:16:20,320 --> 00:16:22,360 Speaker 2: I'm not a good enough lip reader. Anybody that wants 326 00:16:22,400 --> 00:16:24,040 Speaker 2: to blow it up have it. By the way at 327 00:16:24,160 --> 00:16:27,560 Speaker 2: Harmon Rants, I posted my first TikTok this morning. It 328 00:16:27,680 --> 00:16:30,440 Speaker 2: is short.

Hey, Newcastle and Tottenham 351 00:17:43,240 --> 00:17:46,879 Speaker 2: getting after it. We'll get into Wrexham briefly later. You know, 352 00:17:47,080 --> 00:17:50,480 Speaker 2: that's one that's breaking through lower level but rising up. 353 00:17:51,080 --> 00:17:54,400 Speaker 2: Ryan Reynolds and Rob mclaney and what's going on there. 354 00:17:54,720 --> 00:17:57,760 Speaker 2: Great show, great story, all of that. But we're watching 355 00:17:57,840 --> 00:18:00,320 Speaker 2: this Newcastle Tottenham game. It's like, all right, this goal. 356 00:18:01,119 --> 00:18:04,800 Speaker 2: Very excited. You got a sixteen five and ten Tottenham team, 357 00:18:05,280 --> 00:18:09,520 Speaker 2: Newcastle fifteen eleven and four and battling and trying to 358 00:18:09,640 --> 00:18:14,080 Speaker 2: earn those those points late in the season, and we 359 00:18:14,200 --> 00:18:17,200 Speaker 2: are twenty five minutes into this game. Now this is 360 00:18:17,240 --> 00:18:21,680 Speaker 2: the longest scoring drought for Newcastle that they've had. It 361 00:18:21,840 --> 00:18:25,760 Speaker 2: is five toil twenty five minutes in to the point 362 00:18:25,760 --> 00:18:27,159 Speaker 2: where you and I look at each other. Is that 363 00:18:27,200 --> 00:18:27,639 Speaker 2: a replay? 364 00:18:27,920 --> 00:18:30,359 Speaker 3: I honestly, the fifth goal I thought was a replay 365 00:18:30,440 --> 00:18:33,280 Speaker 3: from earlier. I was in the same spot in the net. 366 00:18:33,840 --> 00:18:36,359 Speaker 3: I just wasn't sure if they were recapping all of 367 00:18:36,480 --> 00:18:39,399 Speaker 3: what Newcastle was doing. And this is a This is 368 00:18:39,480 --> 00:18:42,800 Speaker 3: a big match for the simple fact of if Tottenham 369 00:18:43,119 --> 00:18:45,720 Speaker 3: were to win, they could pull even with points, even 370 00:18:45,760 --> 00:18:48,679 Speaker 3: though Newcastle does have a game in hand. Now, if 371 00:18:48,760 --> 00:18:53,439 Speaker 3: Newcastle holds onto this, there's there's still matches to be played. 372 00:18:53,880 --> 00:18:56,560 Speaker 3: There's a really good chance that they've locked their spot 373 00:18:56,640 --> 00:18:58,159 Speaker 3: in the top four. They're probably not going to be 374 00:18:58,200 --> 00:19:01,480 Speaker 3: able to take the overtake Our Snuller or man City 375 00:19:01,560 --> 00:19:03,280 Speaker 3: for the top two spots, but you get in the 376 00:19:03,359 --> 00:19:06,600 Speaker 3: top four and then you're in the Champions League next year. 377 00:19:07,600 --> 00:19:09,600 Speaker 3: If they don't win this, if they wouldn't have won 378 00:19:09,640 --> 00:19:13,840 Speaker 3: this match, now Tottenham's in the mix and you're wondering 379 00:19:13,920 --> 00:19:18,160 Speaker 3: where you are in the standing. So this gives Newcastle. 380 00:19:18,160 --> 00:19:20,560 Speaker 3: I'm gonna assume they're gonna win this match. Mike up 381 00:19:20,720 --> 00:19:21,359 Speaker 3: five minutes. 382 00:19:21,600 --> 00:19:25,919 Speaker 2: We're going to watch the greatest sixty five minutes pluss 383 00:19:26,000 --> 00:19:27,640 Speaker 2: of soccer that we've ever seen. 384 00:19:27,960 --> 00:19:31,280 Speaker 3: This is you know, the Newcastle under new ownership. It's 385 00:19:31,359 --> 00:19:35,479 Speaker 3: the uh the Saudi Yeah, you know backs live golf 386 00:19:35,560 --> 00:19:38,040 Speaker 3: and they have they have now put the investments in 387 00:19:38,119 --> 00:19:40,639 Speaker 3: the Newcastle. And this is this is not just a 388 00:19:40,720 --> 00:19:44,200 Speaker 3: flash in the pan, especially if you're seeing results like this, 389 00:19:44,640 --> 00:19:47,000 Speaker 3: like if you're then you know, then you continue to 390 00:19:47,040 --> 00:19:48,960 Speaker 3: put money in and for a for a club that 391 00:19:49,080 --> 00:19:52,320 Speaker 3: is relegated, you know, five six, seven years ago, then 392 00:19:52,359 --> 00:19:54,000 Speaker 3: I'll be back up and to be doing you know 393 00:19:54,080 --> 00:19:56,600 Speaker 3: this sort of thing. This isn't a just we're here 394 00:19:56,680 --> 00:19:58,000 Speaker 3: once and then they're gonna fade off. 395 00:19:58,560 --> 00:19:58,679 Speaker 4: Uh. 396 00:19:59,040 --> 00:20:00,840 Speaker 3: This is a yeah, they're going to be here to 397 00:20:00,880 --> 00:20:04,400 Speaker 3: stay and uh five five nil, as he said, an 398 00:20:04,560 --> 00:20:09,680 Speaker 3: absolute crazy start Tottenham's fifth you know, like they had something. 399 00:20:09,480 --> 00:20:12,920 Speaker 2: Good, good team. Harry Kane a name that you know 400 00:20:13,080 --> 00:20:16,399 Speaker 2: as a soccer player and as a punchline and watching 401 00:20:16,520 --> 00:20:18,960 Speaker 2: him look around, he looks like he's been punched in 402 00:20:19,000 --> 00:20:21,080 Speaker 2: the face. This is much like to tie it to 403 00:20:21,200 --> 00:20:24,760 Speaker 2: our earlier conversation of the Lakers and the Grizzlies. By 404 00:20:24,800 --> 00:20:27,960 Speaker 2: the time John did all his magic and and I 405 00:20:28,040 --> 00:20:30,840 Speaker 2: can tie it to the NBA as well as we 406 00:20:31,040 --> 00:20:34,920 Speaker 2: just saw a kick to the nether Regions and a 407 00:20:35,000 --> 00:20:38,200 Speaker 2: player went down. Yeah he's he's in pain. 408 00:20:39,080 --> 00:20:41,200 Speaker 3: Not as much as Lebron appeared to be last. 409 00:20:41,320 --> 00:20:45,760 Speaker 2: No, no, master thespian Lebron, come on, Uh, you gotta 410 00:20:45,800 --> 00:20:47,479 Speaker 2: milk that for all it's worth. But yeah, and now 411 00:20:47,520 --> 00:20:50,080 Speaker 2: they've got a free kick. I think the man is 412 00:20:50,119 --> 00:20:53,480 Speaker 2: in tears. But you watched Harry Kane after the fifth goal. 413 00:20:53,880 --> 00:20:57,200 Speaker 2: Then they did a solo shot of the goalie who 414 00:20:57,280 --> 00:21:01,679 Speaker 2: looked absolutely stunned. But it's been long after long pass connection, 415 00:21:01,800 --> 00:21:04,399 Speaker 2: getting out and running and right now you're looking at 416 00:21:04,440 --> 00:21:06,879 Speaker 2: the Tottenham players. They're not able to keep up. You 417 00:21:06,960 --> 00:21:08,000 Speaker 2: can do this all day long. 418 00:21:08,160 --> 00:21:11,320 Speaker 3: What a difference.

Of course, Jay Glazer, 515 00:25:45,160 --> 00:25:47,240 Speaker 2: I call him mister Perfecto. He gets mad at me, 516 00:25:47,800 --> 00:25:50,240 Speaker 2: calls me some names I can't say on Sunday Morning Radio. 517 00:25:50,320 --> 00:25:54,480 Speaker 2: That's fine. Steve Kahm, former Arizona GM, We've talked about 518 00:25:54,520 --> 00:25:57,240 Speaker 2: him and some of his comments. I'll be curious to 519 00:25:57,320 --> 00:26:00,560 Speaker 2: watch the evaluation of what he comes up with for 520 00:26:00,680 --> 00:26:03,800 Speaker 2: this twenty three class. LeVar Arrington our teammate college football 521 00:26:03,840 --> 00:26:06,560 Speaker 2: Hall of Famer, and then Rob Stone's got to try 522 00:26:06,640 --> 00:26:09,040 Speaker 2: to keep that all together and weave that together. That's 523 00:26:09,080 --> 00:26:12,800 Speaker 2: part of our coverage starting five pm on Thursday, and 524 00:26:13,080 --> 00:26:16,840 Speaker 2: Carolina atop the board after making the trade with the Bears, 525 00:26:17,520 --> 00:26:20,439 Speaker 2: the assumption, betting markets and everything. At this point, it's 526 00:26:20,520 --> 00:26:24,360 Speaker 2: Bryce Young and yes, it seems like it unless you've 527 00:26:24,400 --> 00:26:29,200 Speaker 2: been thrown a giant ship full of red herrings. That's 528 00:26:29,240 --> 00:26:32,439 Speaker 2: what we get. But pick number two for Houston truly 529 00:26:32,640 --> 00:26:35,440 Speaker 2: interesting to me. A lot of mocks still have a 530 00:26:35,640 --> 00:26:40,000 Speaker 2: quarterback I e. Whoever Carolina doesn't take. But with Demiko 531 00:26:40,080 --> 00:26:42,359 Speaker 2: Ryan's there, I'm not so sure. 532 00:26:43,400 --> 00:26:46,080 Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't think that they need to. I when 533 00:26:46,119 --> 00:26:48,280 Speaker 3: you look at the building of that team, and then 534 00:26:48,320 --> 00:26:51,000 Speaker 3: you have to look at where is who is this 535 00:26:51,200 --> 00:26:55,320 Speaker 3: franchise competing against. And right now, the Jaguars are the 536 00:26:55,720 --> 00:26:58,840 Speaker 3: class of the division, and you're gonna have to figure 537 00:26:58,880 --> 00:27:01,840 Speaker 3: out a way to slow Trevor Lawrence down over the 538 00:27:01,920 --> 00:27:07,280 Speaker 3: next ten years. And maybe maybe that's not today's NFL, 539 00:27:08,040 --> 00:27:11,600 Speaker 3: but the NFL that you are going to be competing 540 00:27:11,680 --> 00:27:14,399 Speaker 3: with Trevor Lawrence in over the next ten years. With 541 00:27:14,560 --> 00:27:19,800 Speaker 3: these quarterbacks, there's been mixed ranges on them. Mike, and 542 00:27:19,920 --> 00:27:23,560 Speaker 3: if you're Demika Ryans with that defensive background, to get 543 00:27:23,800 --> 00:27:27,280 Speaker 3: two pieces that you could have as cornerstones for your 544 00:27:27,320 --> 00:27:28,560 Speaker 3: defense for the next. 545 00:27:29,200 --> 00:27:32,960 Speaker 2: Decade, pick two, Pick twelve, yes, and put. 546 00:27:32,880 --> 00:27:35,480 Speaker 3: That on your defense, not have a great twenty twenty three, 547 00:27:35,560 --> 00:27:39,040 Speaker 3: and likely pick very high again next year, where then 548 00:27:39,119 --> 00:27:40,879 Speaker 3: maybe you can get your signal caller and you have 549 00:27:40,920 --> 00:27:43,600 Speaker 3: your de Like to me, that works more in concert 550 00:27:44,680 --> 00:27:50,520 Speaker 3: with the Texan success than maybe going with CJ. Stroud 551 00:27:50,640 --> 00:27:53,000 Speaker 3: or trying to load up on offense. I understand that 552 00:27:53,080 --> 00:27:55,920 Speaker 3: you need offense to win in the National Football League, 553 00:27:56,200 --> 00:27:58,439 Speaker 3: but you also have to be able to stop somebody 554 00:27:58,560 --> 00:28:01,280 Speaker 3: at some point. And I think it's the long game 555 00:28:01,359 --> 00:28:05,200 Speaker 3: for the Texans. And so I know the betting numbers 556 00:28:05,240 --> 00:28:08,040 Speaker 3: in Vegas say different, but it's just to me, it's 557 00:28:08,119 --> 00:28:10,840 Speaker 3: just the Will Anderson stuff that we've had over the 558 00:28:10,920 --> 00:28:15,360 Speaker 3: last week or two weeks that just seems really legitimate. 559 00:28:15,440 --> 00:28:18,280 Speaker 3: I don't believe a lot what I hear. You know, 560 00:28:18,359 --> 00:28:21,000 Speaker 3: within the last couple of days leading up to the draft, 561 00:28:21,640 --> 00:28:25,600 Speaker 3: if they went defense defense with two and twelve, I 562 00:28:25,720 --> 00:28:27,000 Speaker 3: think they'd be absolutely fine. 563 00:28:27,160 --> 00:28:29,440 Speaker 2: I wouldn't be surprised at all. And Andrews said, I 564 00:28:29,600 --> 00:28:31,600 Speaker 2: think is the pick if they keep it, yep, because 565 00:28:31,600 --> 00:28:33,960 Speaker 2: that's the other thing. There might be someone desperate to 566 00:28:34,000 --> 00:28:36,840 Speaker 2: come in because the evaluations for these quarterbacks are like 567 00:28:37,440 --> 00:28:40,160 Speaker 2: our picks of a mock draft. It's a dark board 568 00:28:40,320 --> 00:28:42,800 Speaker 2: and you're just hoping to see if you can't land 569 00:28:42,840 --> 00:28:45,160 Speaker 2: it on the board and not hit someone who's having 570 00:28:45,200 --> 00:28:47,360 Speaker 2: a drink behind it. Right. Sure, that's kind of where 571 00:28:47,400 --> 00:28:50,240 Speaker 2: we're at in this process and the Texans. You have 572 00:28:50,320 --> 00:28:52,680 Speaker 2: to realize who you are on the grand scheme. You're 573 00:28:52,760 --> 00:28:55,720 Speaker 2: not one player away. So if you're drafting the quarterback, 574 00:28:55,720 --> 00:28:58,760 Speaker 2: you're Davis Mills you saw it all week, at least 575 00:28:58,840 --> 00:29:02,480 Speaker 2: in my timeline being Chicago kid, because of where the 576 00:29:02,560 --> 00:29:06,480 Speaker 2: Bears at number one, Justin Fields the questions of whether 577 00:29:06,560 --> 00:29:07,840 Speaker 2: he was going to get chipped out or not, and 578 00:29:07,880 --> 00:29:11,000 Speaker 2: obviously that was answered when they made the trade with Carolina, 579 00:29:11,560 --> 00:29:15,040 Speaker 2: But the idea being that the numbers for Davis Mills 580 00:29:15,960 --> 00:29:20,920 Speaker 2: returned fairly favorably to those of Justin Fields now, same 581 00:29:21,000 --> 00:29:23,600 Speaker 2: impact whatever, Like this is where lies, damn lies and 582 00:29:23,640 --> 00:29:27,920 Speaker 2: statistics come into play. But it's the idea of is 583 00:29:28,080 --> 00:29:31,640 Speaker 2: Davis Mills a guy who's finished? Can you still push forward? 584 00:29:32,080 --> 00:29:34,560 Speaker 2: But even if you brought in one of these quarterbacks 585 00:29:34,600 --> 00:29:38,360 Speaker 2: who are all questions, does that elevate you? No, you 586 00:29:38,480 --> 00:29:42,080 Speaker 2: still have to build a team around him. Yes, right, 587 00:29:42,320 --> 00:29:45,520 Speaker 2: So getting your quarterback now and getting that rookie clock 588 00:29:45,640 --> 00:29:48,920 Speaker 2: running doesn't help you in the short term. You got 589 00:29:49,000 --> 00:29:52,560 Speaker 2: Damian Pierce. We like Damian Pierce. He got hurt, so 590 00:29:52,920 --> 00:29:54,920 Speaker 2: is he a guy that's going to go seventeen games 591 00:29:55,000 --> 00:29:57,479 Speaker 2: for you? Fifteen games? Whatever? Your wide receiving core. Your 592 00:29:57,520 --> 00:30:03,320 Speaker 2: big acquisition was Robert Woods, yes, right, And Nico Collins 593 00:30:03,440 --> 00:30:05,560 Speaker 2: looks like he could be a guy who could be 594 00:30:05,640 --> 00:30:09,320 Speaker 2: an interesting two or three maybe elevates, but beyond that, 595 00:30:09,400 --> 00:30:12,120 Speaker 2: you don't have a lot of discernible talent on the offense. 596 00:30:12,200 --> 00:30:15,840 Speaker 2: So bringing in the quarterback right now, to your point, 597 00:30:15,880 --> 00:30:18,760 Speaker 2: I think seems like you've got to have a long term, 598 00:30:18,880 --> 00:30:21,719 Speaker 2: slow approach with Demiko Ryans as to what we're building 599 00:30:22,120 --> 00:30:24,720 Speaker 2: in a program, as opposed to all right, plug and 600 00:30:24,800 --> 00:30:28,520 Speaker 2: play now. Tennessee's a mess. Indianapolis, they may get the 601 00:30:28,600 --> 00:30:34,000 Speaker 2: rest of the roster right in theory, Shaquille formerly Darius 602 00:30:34,080 --> 00:30:38,040 Speaker 2: Leonard can play and stabilize that defense again in theory, 603 00:30:38,840 --> 00:30:41,680 Speaker 2: but they haven't picked their quarterback right in forever. I've 604 00:30:41,920 --> 00:30:44,600 Speaker 2: talked and joked about taking that away. You bring in 605 00:30:44,640 --> 00:30:47,840 Speaker 2: a QB consultant, you let Ballord do everything else, but 606 00:30:47,920 --> 00:30:50,480 Speaker 2: he doesn't get to touch the quarterback position. But that 607 00:30:51,040 --> 00:30:53,800 Speaker 2: jokes aside. Look, it's hot take week. I mean, we 608 00:30:53,880 --> 00:30:56,040 Speaker 2: saw some of the worst takes ever, So I'm just 609 00:30:56,160 --> 00:30:59,520 Speaker 2: throwing stuff up against the wall anymore. I'm just gonna 610 00:30:59,520 --> 00:31:01,520 Speaker 2: be hot take nonsense like everybody else. See if I 611 00:31:01,560 --> 00:31:05,200 Speaker 2: can get the too Comic Kid club going with my paycheck. 612 00:31:05,440 --> 00:31:07,600 Speaker 2: I'm sorry. I didn't want to dismiss Dalton Schultz. You 613 00:31:07,640 --> 00:31:10,320 Speaker 2: know I love Dalton Schultz. He was a big acquisition 614 00:31:10,360 --> 00:31:13,320 Speaker 2: as well. But again it's a couple of pieces that 615 00:31:13,600 --> 00:31:18,480 Speaker 2: may have you vying for back end wildcard. But if 616 00:31:18,520 --> 00:31:21,520 Speaker 2: you can solidify one side of the ball in those 617 00:31:21,600 --> 00:31:22,600 Speaker 2: first two picks. 618 00:31:23,680 --> 00:31:26,560 Speaker 3: I also think that with someone like Davis Mills. And 619 00:31:26,600 --> 00:31:28,000 Speaker 3: I'm not trying to give him the benefit of the 620 00:31:28,040 --> 00:31:30,880 Speaker 3: doubt because I think we kind of know who Davis 621 00:31:31,000 --> 00:31:34,120 Speaker 3: Mills is. But you've also had now two years of 622 00:31:34,640 --> 00:31:39,000 Speaker 3: quarterback of coaching staffs that just you know, weren't set 623 00:31:39,080 --> 00:31:39,280 Speaker 3: up for. 624 00:31:39,320 --> 00:31:42,720 Speaker 2: The long term, right They both got cycled through. Yeah, 625 00:31:43,120 --> 00:31:45,840 Speaker 2: with we could say unfairly, and this goes to a 626 00:31:45,960 --> 00:31:48,400 Speaker 2: larger indictment of the Houston organization. 627 00:31:48,760 --> 00:31:51,320 Speaker 3: Yeah, this has nothing to do with Davis Mills being 628 00:31:51,360 --> 00:31:54,080 Speaker 3: the long term quarterback in Houston. I think that ship 629 00:31:54,160 --> 00:31:56,560 Speaker 3: has sailed. I don't think that that is the solution. 630 00:31:57,200 --> 00:31:59,320 Speaker 3: And I think it's also a reason why Case Keenum 631 00:31:59,400 --> 00:32:02,720 Speaker 3: is back in Houston. Not that Case Keenum is going 632 00:32:02,760 --> 00:32:04,360 Speaker 3: to go on a round like you did with the Vikings, 633 00:32:04,520 --> 00:32:08,720 Speaker 3: you know, five six years ago. But I just they aren't, 634 00:32:09,280 --> 00:32:11,200 Speaker 3: as you said, they aren't a player away. They aren't 635 00:32:11,200 --> 00:32:14,480 Speaker 3: one player away. So if you have other pieces that 636 00:32:15,120 --> 00:32:18,560 Speaker 3: to me is the first domino. It's been Will Anderson 637 00:32:18,640 --> 00:32:20,880 Speaker 3: for how long. I know there may be some different 638 00:32:20,960 --> 00:32:23,200 Speaker 3: numbers in Vegas on saying where they go, But I 639 00:32:23,360 --> 00:32:26,120 Speaker 3: just I don't know why you would go in that 640 00:32:27,400 --> 00:32:30,760 Speaker 3: in that direction, especially with Will Anderson being the guy, 641 00:32:31,400 --> 00:32:34,760 Speaker 3: because honestly, like you talk about someone who's been targeted 642 00:32:34,800 --> 00:32:36,560 Speaker 3: for the top of the draft for the last couple 643 00:32:36,640 --> 00:32:38,840 Speaker 3: of seasons, and I know there was some concerns maybe 644 00:32:38,840 --> 00:32:42,080 Speaker 3: as production was down, you know a little bit last year, 645 00:32:42,120 --> 00:32:46,320 Speaker 3: But you're talking about uh oozing talent and worth that work, 646 00:32:46,360 --> 00:32:49,600 Speaker 3: ethic and good person like that's all. That's all that 647 00:32:49,680 --> 00:32:52,719 Speaker 3: you want in a draft pick at number two overall, 648 00:32:52,760 --> 00:32:54,680 Speaker 3: and they have Demigo Ryan to be able to have 649 00:32:54,840 --> 00:32:57,120 Speaker 3: that as your first pick, yeah, wouldn't surprised me. Then 650 00:32:57,120 --> 00:32:59,000 Speaker 3: you had someone you know, there's there's gonna be guys 651 00:32:59,040 --> 00:33:02,760 Speaker 3: in the secondary, you know that you can add at 652 00:33:02,840 --> 00:33:05,720 Speaker 3: number twelve or who knows if that pick is going 653 00:33:05,760 --> 00:33:07,040 Speaker 3: to be in play or if you want to move 654 00:33:07,160 --> 00:33:10,640 Speaker 3: up and grab someone else. It just to me, it 655 00:33:11,080 --> 00:33:15,240 Speaker 3: would almost seem like a reach. Now because of what 656 00:33:15,400 --> 00:33:19,200 Speaker 3: we've heard in the weeks leading up to this past 657 00:33:19,240 --> 00:33:22,320 Speaker 3: week and now this week for them to take a 658 00:33:22,400 --> 00:33:24,800 Speaker 3: quarterback in this spot just doesn't make a lot of sense. 659 00:33:24,960 --> 00:33:26,920 Speaker 2: He's Dan Byer on Mike Armen. Coming up next, we'll 660 00:33:26,960 --> 00:33:30,600 Speaker 2: talk about the third pick, but also something that got 661 00:33:30,720 --> 00:33:33,760 Speaker 2: unveiled that I know Dan has some strong feelings about 662 00:33:34,480 --> 00:33:37,080 Speaker 2: that we need to to wrap in as we get 663 00:33:37,160 --> 00:33:39,880 Speaker 2: ready to put on our Sunday best. He's Dan Byer 664 00:33:39,960 --> 00:33:42,560 Speaker 2: on Mike Karmen. This is Fox Sports Sunday here on 665 00:33:42,640 --> 00:33:46,880 Speaker 2: Fox Sports Radio. Welcome back in.

My parents really getting deep into the Apa 669 00:34:00,320 --> 00:34:04,360 Speaker 2: Bay Lightning. And notice that a few weeks ago when 670 00:34:04,360 --> 00:34:07,160 Speaker 2: they're reading scouting reports on the internet, like I hear, 671 00:34:07,240 --> 00:34:10,560 Speaker 2: I'm thinking they're playing card games or you know, going 672 00:34:10,600 --> 00:34:14,919 Speaker 2: down YouTube rabbit holes, no reading previews of Lightning games. 673 00:34:14,920 --> 00:34:17,719 Speaker 2: So we'll see how it all flows later on to 674 00:34:20,440 --> 00:34:23,839 Speaker 2: ing it kind of it seems like chippiness is there 675 00:34:23,880 --> 00:34:26,120 Speaker 2: all around.

Lots of stuff swirling around with 684 00:34:49,560 --> 00:34:52,680 Speaker 2: the number three pick, the rumor, conjecture, speculation i e. 685 00:34:53,000 --> 00:34:55,560 Speaker 2: The Cardinals saying come and get it is really what 686 00:34:55,640 --> 00:34:58,040 Speaker 2: it's We've got a lot of people calling us. In 687 00:34:58,120 --> 00:35:01,440 Speaker 2: other words, please call us, please please call us. We 688 00:35:01,560 --> 00:35:04,640 Speaker 2: need so much. We have so many things, so many issues, 689 00:35:05,040 --> 00:35:08,200 Speaker 2: so many Buddha Baker and DeAndre Hopkins and all these 690 00:35:08,239 --> 00:35:10,759 Speaker 2: other things that have to be shaken out over the 691 00:35:10,840 --> 00:35:12,200 Speaker 2: course of the next couple of weeks. 692 00:35:12,400 --> 00:35:14,840 Speaker 3: They have, like the Texans I think, have hit rock bottom. 693 00:35:15,480 --> 00:35:18,320 Speaker 3: And rock bottom was when they beat the Colts to 694 00:35:18,400 --> 00:35:20,920 Speaker 3: not get the first overall pick. Like that was that 695 00:35:21,120 --> 00:35:24,000 Speaker 3: was rock bottom at that point. But now you're got 696 00:35:24,080 --> 00:35:27,040 Speaker 3: I think now you're starting to trend up. Doesn't mean 697 00:35:27,120 --> 00:35:29,879 Speaker 3: that you again can't take defensive players. I don't think 698 00:35:29,880 --> 00:35:32,880 Speaker 3: the Cardinals have hit their rock bottom yet because DeAndre 699 00:35:33,000 --> 00:35:36,640 Speaker 3: Hopkins is still a member of the Cardinals and Kyler 700 00:35:36,719 --> 00:35:39,720 Speaker 3: Murray is still yet to miss any of the upcoming 701 00:35:39,800 --> 00:35:42,440 Speaker 3: season's games. So I still think the Cardinals actually have 702 00:35:42,480 --> 00:35:45,400 Speaker 3: a way to go lower than hit rock bottom and 703 00:35:45,480 --> 00:35:46,239 Speaker 3: then bounce up. 704 00:35:46,280 --> 00:35:48,240 Speaker 2: So one of those where you're trying to hold it together. 705 00:35:48,640 --> 00:35:51,359 Speaker 2: Yeah you're watching television or anything. It ain't gonna be hell, 706 00:35:52,080 --> 00:35:56,240 Speaker 2: come on, hold it together, shaking. We're at the tyrack 707 00:35:56,320 --> 00:35:59,760 Speaker 2: dot com Fox Sports Radio studios. Now the other story 708 00:35:59,800 --> 00:36:01,960 Speaker 2: that goes through, and we'll get to Kyler and his 709 00:36:02,120 --> 00:36:09,520 Speaker 2: trophy and the ceremonial arrival of all his cohort right 710 00:36:09,600 --> 00:36:12,040 Speaker 2: and all his people from Arizona there to support him. 711 00:36:12,120 --> 00:36:16,520 Speaker 2: So at least they're trying. But they announced new uniforms 712 00:36:16,560 --> 00:36:20,040 Speaker 2: and then had a fashion show. Obviously Baker and Hopkins 713 00:36:20,080 --> 00:36:22,319 Speaker 2: are not part of it because well, yeah it may 714 00:36:22,400 --> 00:36:24,280 Speaker 2: not be part of things correct, But there was Kyler 715 00:36:24,360 --> 00:36:27,480 Speaker 2: Murray front and center, and we saw these new unis. 716 00:36:27,560 --> 00:36:31,640 Speaker 2: And you are the man who loves the color schemes, 717 00:36:31,640 --> 00:36:33,880 Speaker 2: You've got your helmet collection, all of those. What do 718 00:36:33,920 --> 00:36:36,160 Speaker 2: you think of the Cardinals quote upgrades? 719 00:36:36,360 --> 00:36:40,480 Speaker 3: I just I can't get past. This love that Nike 720 00:36:40,719 --> 00:36:44,400 Speaker 3: has with putting the name of the city on the 721 00:36:44,520 --> 00:36:47,520 Speaker 3: front of certain jerseys. We saw it with the Browns, 722 00:36:47,920 --> 00:36:51,480 Speaker 3: we saw we see it with the Jets. Browns, thank goodness, 723 00:36:51,600 --> 00:36:55,840 Speaker 3: change theirs, and now you've got Arizona Kyler Murray wearing it. 724 00:36:56,080 --> 00:36:59,120 Speaker 3: I don't know why you need to have Arizona on 725 00:36:59,160 --> 00:37:01,240 Speaker 3: the front of a jersey, I said out a tweet. 726 00:37:01,280 --> 00:37:02,880 Speaker 3: The only time names should be on the front of 727 00:37:02,960 --> 00:37:05,640 Speaker 3: jerseys if you're a kid in the seventies or eighties 728 00:37:06,040 --> 00:37:12,719 Speaker 3: and we're wearing Cowboys Calloys thirty three, Tony dor set yep, absolutely, Steelers, 729 00:37:13,200 --> 00:37:16,759 Speaker 3: you know, thirty two, frank O Harris, totally fine, that's 730 00:37:16,880 --> 00:37:21,200 Speaker 3: the sort of jersey that you want. Dolphins thirteen. That's 731 00:37:21,440 --> 00:37:24,080 Speaker 3: when I name on the front of the uniform works, 732 00:37:24,400 --> 00:37:27,360 Speaker 3: not in the National Football League in actual games. So 733 00:37:27,520 --> 00:37:31,080 Speaker 3: while the change better than what they had before, Mike, 734 00:37:31,520 --> 00:37:34,960 Speaker 3: I just get so locked into these dumb decisions that 735 00:37:35,080 --> 00:37:37,880 Speaker 3: they make. They kind of look. I mean, there is 736 00:37:38,000 --> 00:37:41,000 Speaker 3: a I think Darren Ravel may have tweeted that they're 737 00:37:41,040 --> 00:37:43,960 Speaker 3: the you know, the Ohio State Cardinals. I don't think 738 00:37:44,000 --> 00:37:46,359 Speaker 3: it's to that effect. But I also don't know why 739 00:37:46,360 --> 00:37:48,320 Speaker 3: all of a sudden, now silver and gray is a 740 00:37:48,400 --> 00:37:51,319 Speaker 3: part of their look. I thought they could do something 741 00:37:51,360 --> 00:37:55,520 Speaker 3: with the bird beak, which is like a gold That's 742 00:37:55,560 --> 00:37:57,399 Speaker 3: where you could have put in been unique. But maybe 743 00:37:57,440 --> 00:38:00,120 Speaker 3: they wanted to be not like the Chiefs and have 744 00:38:00,200 --> 00:38:01,960 Speaker 3: red and gold be the color. I just I was 745 00:38:02,000 --> 00:38:04,080 Speaker 3: a bit underwhelm. They're better than what they had before, 746 00:38:04,480 --> 00:38:06,680 Speaker 3: but I just I can't stand the Arizona in front. 747 00:38:06,680 --> 00:38:08,560 Speaker 3: And I can't get past that, can't get past the 748 00:38:08,640 --> 00:38:10,279 Speaker 3: market research. Dan can't do it. 749 00:38:10,440 --> 00:38:14,640 Speaker 2: Evidently those the color. Remember when everybody started to infuse 750 00:38:14,760 --> 00:38:17,560 Speaker 2: black into their uniforms, there was no need to in 751 00:38:17,680 --> 00:38:20,960 Speaker 2: this and putting out the jersey that has the city 752 00:38:21,080 --> 00:38:25,200 Speaker 2: on the front or I I or state as it were. 753 00:38:25,800 --> 00:38:29,759 Speaker 2: I gotta think that you went through and you had 754 00:38:29,880 --> 00:38:35,279 Speaker 2: enough people looking for merch that had that identified what 755 00:38:35,400 --> 00:38:40,400 Speaker 2: they were supporting. Because if you don't know the Cardinals player, 756 00:38:40,880 --> 00:38:44,239 Speaker 2: yes right, if it's a one and says Murray, and 757 00:38:44,560 --> 00:38:46,719 Speaker 2: maybe you got to explain like if you're I don't 758 00:38:46,840 --> 00:38:48,920 Speaker 2: like I'm trying to go through the logic here. I'm 759 00:38:48,960 --> 00:38:50,839 Speaker 2: trying to give them the benefit of the doubt that's 760 00:38:50,960 --> 00:38:55,200 Speaker 2: somewhere in the data piles. There was a need from 761 00:38:55,239 --> 00:38:58,440 Speaker 2: a merchandising standpoint for this instead of just making it 762 00:38:58,560 --> 00:39:01,239 Speaker 2: a suresy that you made, did part of you? That's 763 00:39:01,280 --> 00:39:02,640 Speaker 2: exactly midfield repertory. 764 00:39:02,719 --> 00:39:05,080 Speaker 3: I think they think that that home fans look at 765 00:39:05,120 --> 00:39:07,720 Speaker 3: this and they're like, yeah, this is where we're from, 766 00:39:08,239 --> 00:39:10,920 Speaker 3: Like this is us And I don't think that fans 767 00:39:10,960 --> 00:39:12,759 Speaker 3: look at that at all. I think fans look at 768 00:39:12,800 --> 00:39:14,279 Speaker 3: it and say, like, why is that so big? 769 00:39:15,080 --> 00:39:17,840 Speaker 2: It is very sizable. Yes, well, they're proud of what 770 00:39:17,920 --> 00:39:23,799 Speaker 2: they are. Uh distracted, Wait a. 771 00:39:23,800 --> 00:39:25,560 Speaker 3: Couple of years before you put that on the front. 772 00:39:25,560 --> 00:39:27,920 Speaker 3: Please just wait, just trying. 773 00:39:27,680 --> 00:39:31,680 Speaker 2: To obfuscate from everything going around with Bidwell, so you 774 00:39:31,760 --> 00:39:33,960 Speaker 2: got that going, He's dayan a bike back into the 775 00:39:34,080 --> 00:39:37,719 Speaker 2: NBA Playoffs.

My mom had just come into 813 00:41:31,400 --> 00:41:35,920 Speaker 3: town from Wisconsin, the home state, and you know, we're 814 00:41:35,920 --> 00:41:38,920 Speaker 3: gonna celebrate some birthdays this week.

And then 818 00:41:50,280 --> 00:41:54,400 Speaker 3: the Heat just basically keep the Bucks at arms length 819 00:41:54,920 --> 00:41:59,640 Speaker 3: for the final three quarters of Game three, and there 820 00:41:59,760 --> 00:42:02,279 Speaker 3: was really nothing to get excited about it all. So 821 00:42:03,040 --> 00:42:05,680 Speaker 3: what I do, Mike, is because I've now spent the 822 00:42:05,760 --> 00:42:08,480 Speaker 3: last hour and a half watching bad basketball or having 823 00:42:08,520 --> 00:42:11,279 Speaker 3: it on moms in town, take a little break. We 824 00:42:11,360 --> 00:42:13,680 Speaker 3: grabbed something to eat. All right, let's turn on the 825 00:42:13,800 --> 00:42:16,960 Speaker 3: Lakers game. And you know when you switch it a channel, 826 00:42:17,680 --> 00:42:21,040 Speaker 3: because let's be honest, we switched it to Nick Junior. 827 00:42:21,160 --> 00:42:23,560 Speaker 3: Of course you switch it back and the graphic is 828 00:42:23,640 --> 00:42:26,600 Speaker 3: still on the screen. You know of what you're changing too, 829 00:42:27,160 --> 00:42:28,880 Speaker 3: And there was something covering up the score, and I'm like, 830 00:42:28,920 --> 00:42:32,680 Speaker 3: wait a second, does that say thirty eight to nine? 831 00:42:33,080 --> 00:42:33,200 Speaker 2: Right? 832 00:42:34,480 --> 00:42:38,880 Speaker 3: And then the graphic disappeared and sure enough thirty eight 833 00:42:38,920 --> 00:42:42,120 Speaker 3: to nine. So I didn't even I didn't even see 834 00:42:42,200 --> 00:42:47,000 Speaker 3: this first quarter of the Lakers dismantling other Memphis Grizzlies. 835 00:42:47,360 --> 00:42:51,279 Speaker 3: But my goodness, talk about just not being at least 836 00:42:51,640 --> 00:42:55,240 Speaker 3: at least the Bucks were competitive in the first Quarter's. 837 00:42:54,600 --> 00:42:57,839 Speaker 2: It like no effort all around in the night cap. 838 00:42:58,080 --> 00:42:59,800 Speaker 2: But for your game, I mean, you had the perfect 839 00:43:00,400 --> 00:43:03,600 Speaker 2: Mom comes into town, You've got a two year old, 840 00:43:04,160 --> 00:43:06,600 Speaker 2: and so it's say, hey, mom and two year old 841 00:43:06,640 --> 00:43:09,080 Speaker 2: are now occupied. They get to see each other, Yes, 842 00:43:10,400 --> 00:43:14,080 Speaker 2: grab whatever's in the fridge and go sit. And then 843 00:43:14,560 --> 00:43:16,680 Speaker 2: you felt guilty doing it because beam a bad game 844 00:43:16,800 --> 00:43:17,000 Speaker 2: it was. 845 00:43:17,120 --> 00:43:20,400 Speaker 3: It was awful. I would rather have been extremely winded 846 00:43:20,560 --> 00:43:23,160 Speaker 3: running after the soon to be two year old then 847 00:43:23,719 --> 00:43:26,040 Speaker 3: have to watch that. And that's the like, there's there's 848 00:43:26,080 --> 00:43:28,680 Speaker 3: a lot of storylines, Mike that go throughout this and 849 00:43:28,800 --> 00:43:31,880 Speaker 3: with the Bucks Heat series, it's the Yannis injury that 850 00:43:32,040 --> 00:43:35,200 Speaker 3: is number one, the Tyler hero injury that's number two. 851 00:43:35,360 --> 00:43:38,840 Speaker 3: Those things end up standing out. But what's just amazing 852 00:43:38,920 --> 00:43:42,040 Speaker 3: to me, if you'll just allow me here, is this 853 00:43:42,280 --> 00:43:44,920 Speaker 3: isn't about Yannis. And I know that there was some 854 00:43:45,120 --> 00:43:48,680 Speaker 3: back and forth of of really of the comment. Really 855 00:43:48,800 --> 00:43:52,399 Speaker 3: Tyler Heroes absence is, you know, hurts the Heat more 856 00:43:52,440 --> 00:43:56,160 Speaker 3: than it does Milwaukee. On the surface, it's a crazy statement. 857 00:43:56,239 --> 00:43:58,080 Speaker 3: When you dive into a little bit more, maybe it's 858 00:43:58,120 --> 00:44:00,360 Speaker 3: not as crazy, but still, I'm sorry. The Yannis absence 859 00:44:00,520 --> 00:44:03,000 Speaker 3: is huge. It's one of the reasons why the Bucks 860 00:44:03,040 --> 00:44:05,520 Speaker 3: are down to one, and I say one of the reasons, Mike, 861 00:44:06,000 --> 00:44:09,719 Speaker 3: is because in the two games of this three game 862 00:44:09,800 --> 00:44:12,720 Speaker 3: series so far, the Miami Heat have had one hundred 863 00:44:12,760 --> 00:44:15,520 Speaker 3: points at the end of three quarters, and I believe 864 00:44:15,520 --> 00:44:17,719 Speaker 3: they had ninety four last night at the end of 865 00:44:17,800 --> 00:44:21,240 Speaker 3: three quarters. This is the lowest scoring team in the NBA. 866 00:44:21,760 --> 00:44:25,279 Speaker 3: Bucks are top five in defensive categories, top two in 867 00:44:25,360 --> 00:44:28,879 Speaker 3: field goal percentage allowed, top four defensive rating. When you're 868 00:44:28,880 --> 00:44:30,919 Speaker 3: allowing the Miami Heat to score one hundred and thirty 869 00:44:30,960 --> 00:44:34,160 Speaker 3: points and one hundred and twenty one points without one 870 00:44:34,239 --> 00:44:39,360 Speaker 3: of their top scorers. There are issues and big time issues, 871 00:44:39,360 --> 00:44:42,720 Speaker 3: and you construct a team that obviously is built around Giannis. 872 00:44:42,760 --> 00:44:44,600 Speaker 3: But Mike, you thought that there would be this great 873 00:44:44,800 --> 00:44:48,640 Speaker 3: wall of defense with Brook Lopez at the bucket. Gianis 874 00:44:48,680 --> 00:44:51,960 Speaker 3: obviously there. You brought in Jay Crowder, you have Drew Holliday. 875 00:44:52,000 --> 00:44:54,360 Speaker 3: We know how good he is defensively, Like you were like, 876 00:44:54,480 --> 00:44:57,279 Speaker 3: this team is built to lock other teams down, and 877 00:44:57,360 --> 00:44:59,400 Speaker 3: the Miami Heat have put a buck twenty one and 878 00:44:59,520 --> 00:45:03,200 Speaker 3: a buck thirty on them and that's embarrassing. And that's 879 00:45:03,440 --> 00:45:05,120 Speaker 3: so when you're saying, like the people are saying, oh, 880 00:45:05,160 --> 00:45:07,120 Speaker 3: the Bucks are in trouble or or you know, like 881 00:45:07,200 --> 00:45:11,440 Speaker 3: this is something, Yeah, it's yeah, Yannis's injury obviously has 882 00:45:11,520 --> 00:45:13,600 Speaker 3: something to do with it. In his absence not being 883 00:45:13,640 --> 00:45:16,440 Speaker 3: there does hurt them defensively, But you can't let Miami 884 00:45:16,680 --> 00:45:18,919 Speaker 3: score that many points. When they ever want to score 885 00:45:18,960 --> 00:45:21,400 Speaker 3: that many points, they don't do it during the regular season, 886 00:45:21,440 --> 00:45:23,520 Speaker 3: and now you're just oh laying them to the hoop 887 00:45:23,800 --> 00:45:26,680 Speaker 3: subsurd generally a grind you down, thank you for my 888 00:45:26,800 --> 00:45:27,239 Speaker 3: ted talk. 889 00:45:27,360 --> 00:45:29,520 Speaker 2: Yeah that was good, that was good. I would have 890 00:45:29,600 --> 00:45:32,680 Speaker 2: paid it's fifty dollars for that. Master class well. 891 00:45:32,719 --> 00:45:35,000 Speaker 3: I appreciate because it's a series that, let's be honest, 892 00:45:35,080 --> 00:45:36,040 Speaker 3: nobody really cares about it. 893 00:45:36,040 --> 00:45:36,160 Speaker 4: Well. 894 00:45:36,200 --> 00:45:38,560 Speaker 2: But but that's the larger point, right, to get to 895 00:45:39,239 --> 00:45:43,400 Speaker 2: the larger issue facing the NBA is outside of Giannis 896 00:45:43,680 --> 00:45:46,480 Speaker 2: and Hero because their names, and certainly Yani is a guy. 897 00:45:47,160 --> 00:45:50,279 Speaker 2: If I'm a voter, he would have gotten my MVP vote, right. 898 00:45:50,400 --> 00:45:55,360 Speaker 2: Regular season. Love Jokic, Love Embiid. I love that Embiid 899 00:45:55,440 --> 00:45:58,440 Speaker 2: cries because he wants the MVP. I don't know how 900 00:45:58,480 --> 00:46:00,560 Speaker 2: he didn't get kicked out of the game the other day, 901 00:46:00,640 --> 00:46:04,200 Speaker 2: but that's okay. Different rules for different guys based on 902 00:46:05,120 --> 00:46:08,520 Speaker 2: how likable or how much importance, or whether it's three 903 00:46:08,600 --> 00:46:13,520 Speaker 2: minutes into a game as it were. But when we 904 00:46:13,600 --> 00:46:16,160 Speaker 2: look at Yannis being off the table, he's a guy 905 00:46:16,239 --> 00:46:18,480 Speaker 2: that's broken through, right. He is now one of the 906 00:46:18,560 --> 00:46:22,240 Speaker 2: faces of your league. He's got dad jokes for days, 907 00:46:22,320 --> 00:46:26,560 Speaker 2: all of those the corniness and the humble brags about 908 00:46:26,640 --> 00:46:29,799 Speaker 2: his performance, right, he's not. I don't think he's as 909 00:46:30,520 --> 00:46:33,640 Speaker 2: as aw shut. Yeah, everybody tries to portray it. It's 910 00:46:33,760 --> 00:46:37,000 Speaker 2: very calculated. It's like lebron get after he got hit 911 00:46:37,040 --> 00:46:40,360 Speaker 2: by Brooks yesterday and rolling around like he is. I 912 00:46:40,400 --> 00:46:43,359 Speaker 2: don't know, pick your favorite war movie. Yes, right, it's 913 00:46:43,360 --> 00:46:47,000 Speaker 2: like he's gonna die a noble death here, so we're 914 00:46:47,040 --> 00:46:49,960 Speaker 2: gonna keep the camera on him in ISO. So it's 915 00:46:50,040 --> 00:46:52,400 Speaker 2: that kind of thing. But they go sixteen to thirty 916 00:46:52,480 --> 00:46:57,400 Speaker 2: three from three point range, blistering pace. Duncan Robinson emerges 917 00:46:57,440 --> 00:47:00,640 Speaker 2: once again. But talk about Yannis, talk about hero, talk 918 00:47:00,719 --> 00:47:04,840 Speaker 2: about go on down the line. All our injuries, Kawhi Leonard, 919 00:47:04,880 --> 00:47:07,279 Speaker 2: that's the big talk here in LA. We'll do a 920 00:47:07,480 --> 00:47:11,560 Speaker 2: larger talk on Kawhi coming forward here on the show. 921 00:47:11,680 --> 00:47:15,400 Speaker 2: But all of these not to mention Dylan Brooks, not 922 00:47:15,560 --> 00:47:19,680 Speaker 2: to mention the embiid kick and the James Harden was 923 00:47:19,719 --> 00:47:22,759 Speaker 2: that just kind of looking to forearm and push away 924 00:47:23,160 --> 00:47:27,680 Speaker 2: where he accidentally, you know, gets the little shot and 925 00:47:27,800 --> 00:47:30,800 Speaker 2: again below the belt, just time and time again is 926 00:47:30,840 --> 00:47:32,239 Speaker 2: what we're seeing here. And we saw it in the 927 00:47:32,320 --> 00:47:34,759 Speaker 2: soccer game a little bit earlier. By the way, Harry 928 00:47:34,840 --> 00:47:37,320 Speaker 2: Kane just scored. So it's five to one, no longer 929 00:47:37,360 --> 00:47:41,160 Speaker 2: a shutout on the pitch in England. But all of 930 00:47:41,200 --> 00:47:45,000 Speaker 2: these injuries and the theatrics on the side, Dylan Brooks 931 00:47:45,040 --> 00:47:47,960 Speaker 2: and his comments to Lebron the other day Lebron is 932 00:47:48,000 --> 00:47:50,560 Speaker 2: he gonna take the take the bait, and then he 933 00:47:50,680 --> 00:47:52,960 Speaker 2: circled around in his post game and all of that. 934 00:47:53,200 --> 00:47:55,640 Speaker 2: It's taken all the energy away from well, what we're 935 00:47:55,680 --> 00:47:58,840 Speaker 2: gonna see later on today. Right, you've got Cleveland and 936 00:47:58,880 --> 00:48:01,640 Speaker 2: New York another series kind of like the Bucks. Like 937 00:48:02,320 --> 00:48:04,200 Speaker 2: if you're an NBA fan or you're a fan of 938 00:48:04,239 --> 00:48:08,600 Speaker 2: that team, you really gravitated. But otherwise it's say, hey, right, 939 00:48:08,719 --> 00:48:13,080 Speaker 2: because the Knicks, like both teams are, they're good teams 940 00:48:13,160 --> 00:48:15,320 Speaker 2: and you could make the could have made the arguments 941 00:48:15,360 --> 00:48:18,800 Speaker 2: before the playoffs tipped off of why not us? And 942 00:48:19,000 --> 00:48:22,200 Speaker 2: I'm not trying to invoke my radio partner during the week, 943 00:48:22,320 --> 00:48:25,759 Speaker 2: Jason Smith, the attitude because it's Nick Nicks, Nicks and 944 00:48:26,040 --> 00:48:29,360 Speaker 2: Aaron Rodgers will be a jet. It has to happen 945 00:48:30,440 --> 00:48:35,120 Speaker 2: or bad things. But the idea that you've got teams 946 00:48:35,200 --> 00:48:38,239 Speaker 2: and identities that, given the way the NBA is set 947 00:48:38,320 --> 00:48:40,080 Speaker 2: up right now, you've got an opportunity to make a 948 00:48:40,160 --> 00:48:43,840 Speaker 2: run and these injuries may help that. So paying attention 949 00:48:44,080 --> 00:48:48,360 Speaker 2: to those stories and those series beyond the glitch glamour 950 00:48:48,400 --> 00:48:50,080 Speaker 2: of Draymond Green and everybody else. 951 00:48:50,360 --> 00:48:53,960 Speaker 3: If this was. I don't want to say the NFL, 952 00:48:54,040 --> 00:48:55,680 Speaker 3: but I think that there are some parallels. If this 953 00:48:55,840 --> 00:48:59,120 Speaker 3: was the NFL, these would be the storylines that I 954 00:48:59,200 --> 00:49:01,640 Speaker 3: think that we're talking about right now. I think we're 955 00:49:01,680 --> 00:49:08,040 Speaker 3: talking about the Lakers making a run and the bracket 956 00:49:08,120 --> 00:49:10,200 Speaker 3: and maybe setting up for them to make it to 957 00:49:10,320 --> 00:49:16,160 Speaker 3: a conference final, maybe maybe, or maybe them facing Golden 958 00:49:16,239 --> 00:49:18,920 Speaker 3: State in the Western semis and I'll get to Golden 959 00:49:18,920 --> 00:49:20,920 Speaker 3: State in the SEC. That would be a conversation. But 960 00:49:21,000 --> 00:49:23,080 Speaker 3: the Lakers being up to one and Lebron James and 961 00:49:23,120 --> 00:49:26,120 Speaker 3: Anthony Davis figuring out a way to really make this 962 00:49:26,320 --> 00:49:29,520 Speaker 3: thing work. I think this is the storyline. Sacramento is 963 00:49:29,520 --> 00:49:32,360 Speaker 3: the story in itself. Them being up to one on 964 00:49:32,560 --> 00:49:36,160 Speaker 3: the defending champions and them ending their playoffs route and 965 00:49:36,320 --> 00:49:39,200 Speaker 3: having those wins and the Warriors continuing to not win 966 00:49:39,280 --> 00:49:42,720 Speaker 3: at home Kevin Durant and the Suns about to dispatch 967 00:49:42,840 --> 00:49:46,279 Speaker 3: these short handed Clippers. That's a storyline. And I think 968 00:49:46,719 --> 00:49:49,000 Speaker 3: you know, when you look in the East, the Miami Heat, 969 00:49:49,040 --> 00:49:51,200 Speaker 3: the eight seed, my goodness, they're on the verge of 970 00:49:51,280 --> 00:49:57,200 Speaker 3: upsetting the Bucks. But instead, instead, Mike, what we're talking 971 00:49:57,239 --> 00:50:00,880 Speaker 3: about is Dylan Brooks. What we're talking about Draymond Green, 972 00:50:01,880 --> 00:50:05,480 Speaker 3: We're talking about Kawhi's injury, We're talking about Giannison and 973 00:50:05,880 --> 00:50:10,520 Speaker 3: Tyler Herroes injury, and we're talking about you know, money 974 00:50:10,560 --> 00:50:14,040 Speaker 3: shots by the Sixers. That's what That's what the conversation is. 975 00:50:14,520 --> 00:50:17,560 Speaker 3: In the NFL playoffs this past year, in the Visional playoffs, 976 00:50:17,560 --> 00:50:20,120 Speaker 3: you know what we're saying, Man, maybe Josh Allen can't 977 00:50:20,160 --> 00:50:23,640 Speaker 3: do it himself, or Joe burrows him because Cincinnati just 978 00:50:23,719 --> 00:50:25,880 Speaker 3: went to Buffalo and knocked off the Bills in the 979 00:50:25,920 --> 00:50:29,120 Speaker 3: Divisional playoff. You know what we're saying, Dak Prescott may 980 00:50:29,200 --> 00:50:32,200 Speaker 3: not be him why because he's throwing two bad interceptions 981 00:50:32,239 --> 00:50:34,200 Speaker 3: in a loss to the San Francisco forty nine ers. 982 00:50:34,560 --> 00:50:37,080 Speaker 3: We're talking about the actual games, you know, we're talking 983 00:50:37,120 --> 00:50:39,719 Speaker 3: about you know things. The only drama that I can 984 00:50:39,800 --> 00:50:44,360 Speaker 3: even really you know, like bring to the forefront was 985 00:50:44,440 --> 00:50:47,080 Speaker 3: a J Brown sulking after the win against the Giants. 986 00:50:47,680 --> 00:50:50,480 Speaker 3: You know, like like like that's and that's that's what 987 00:50:50,600 --> 00:50:53,320 Speaker 3: would we talk about the NFL being heavy If you 988 00:50:53,400 --> 00:50:56,239 Speaker 3: talk about the NFL being the NBA being exhausting, So 989 00:50:56,400 --> 00:50:59,200 Speaker 3: the NBA being heavy and the NBA being exhausting, this 990 00:50:59,480 --> 00:51:02,440 Speaker 3: is what we're talking about, talking about Dylan Brooks and 991 00:51:02,560 --> 00:51:06,600 Speaker 3: Draymond Green and the antics that go on. And at 992 00:51:06,680 --> 00:51:11,120 Speaker 3: some part, Mike, it's good for the league because it's entertaining, 993 00:51:11,680 --> 00:51:15,440 Speaker 3: but it is also I think, overshadowing what it's supposed 994 00:51:15,440 --> 00:51:17,759 Speaker 3: to be a high point in the season. You don't 995 00:51:17,760 --> 00:51:19,960 Speaker 3: get this stuff in the NFL. We're talking about actual 996 00:51:20,080 --> 00:51:23,520 Speaker 3: players in their legacies and is Dak good enough or not? 997 00:51:24,280 --> 00:51:27,400 Speaker 3: There isn't. We can't even have that conversation, you know, 998 00:51:27,560 --> 00:51:30,279 Speaker 3: with some of the guys because of their injuries or 999 00:51:30,640 --> 00:51:33,200 Speaker 3: the conversation has been overshadowed by other stuff that's going on. 1000 00:51:33,320 --> 00:51:35,920 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think it plays to for the NBA. The 1001 00:51:36,000 --> 00:51:40,680 Speaker 2: problem becomes the playoffs, which were always the second season. 1002 00:51:40,760 --> 00:51:43,600 Speaker 2: You set it apart, everything's different. It's more of the 1003 00:51:43,680 --> 00:51:47,520 Speaker 2: same because during the regular season, who's playing, who's not, Yes, 1004 00:51:47,719 --> 00:51:51,960 Speaker 2: who's chirping into a microphone, who's not? And before the 1005 00:51:52,040 --> 00:51:55,200 Speaker 2: season even tips off, we're already talking about free agent classes, 1006 00:51:55,760 --> 00:51:58,520 Speaker 2: guys not getting along, right, that was a story in Boston. 1007 00:51:59,080 --> 00:52:01,520 Speaker 2: Coach has to go way because of what's going on 1008 00:52:01,840 --> 00:52:05,840 Speaker 2: up the court, and do Tatum and Brown get along? 1009 00:52:06,320 --> 00:52:10,399 Speaker 2: And that's a thread for a storyline all season long, 1010 00:52:11,440 --> 00:52:13,920 Speaker 2: and so now with the playoffs, we're doing the same thing. 1011 00:52:14,360 --> 00:52:17,040 Speaker 2: It's what else is going on? Oh, by the way, 1012 00:52:17,080 --> 00:52:18,720 Speaker 2: the playings of basketball, Yes. 1013 00:52:18,880 --> 00:52:22,560 Speaker 3: And then there could be some amazing stories. Maybe amazing 1014 00:52:22,600 --> 00:52:24,560 Speaker 3: it's too strong of a word, but I think the 1015 00:52:24,640 --> 00:52:27,560 Speaker 3: Kings being up to one against Golden State is just very, 1016 00:52:27,760 --> 00:52:32,680 Speaker 3: very intriguing, and I it just that's the nature of 1017 00:52:32,719 --> 00:52:35,399 Speaker 3: the NBA, maybe because it's also spread over two weeks, Mike, 1018 00:52:35,480 --> 00:52:38,160 Speaker 3: it's not just a one game, you know, the way 1019 00:52:38,200 --> 00:52:43,320 Speaker 3: you move on. But I just felt that entering Cowboys 1020 00:52:43,440 --> 00:52:45,640 Speaker 3: forty nine ers, it was such an epic game and 1021 00:52:45,760 --> 00:52:50,160 Speaker 3: such an opportunity to see what Brock Purdy could do 1022 00:52:50,560 --> 00:52:53,000 Speaker 3: or what Dak Prescott could do. And then we leave 1023 00:52:53,080 --> 00:52:56,399 Speaker 3: that game and we say, man, what can that Dak 1024 00:52:56,440 --> 00:52:59,759 Speaker 3: Prescott do? What should the Cowboys do? They are all 1025 00:52:59,800 --> 00:53:05,080 Speaker 3: these things that are spawned from the game. Where I 1026 00:53:05,239 --> 00:53:09,200 Speaker 3: think last night one of the reasons, maybe the main 1027 00:53:09,320 --> 00:53:12,160 Speaker 3: reason why you watch Lakers Grizzlies is not to see 1028 00:53:12,160 --> 00:53:13,759 Speaker 3: if the Lakers can go up to one and the 1029 00:53:13,840 --> 00:53:16,840 Speaker 3: Bron's playing in the game. It's what happens between Lebron 1030 00:53:16,880 --> 00:53:17,680 Speaker 3: and Dylan brok. 1031 00:53:18,280 --> 00:53:21,320 Speaker 2: Right, why do we keep seeing like in our studio 1032 00:53:21,960 --> 00:53:24,120 Speaker 2: we'll be moving into new studios this week, just a 1033 00:53:24,200 --> 00:53:27,080 Speaker 2: big deal. But we've got four big monitors that we 1034 00:53:27,160 --> 00:53:29,880 Speaker 2: got a TV that's on the Weather Channel and watching 1035 00:53:29,960 --> 00:53:32,719 Speaker 2: good good luck out there. It just goes from one 1036 00:53:32,760 --> 00:53:35,279 Speaker 2: thing to the next. For me, I got the sunshine 1037 00:53:35,320 --> 00:53:38,759 Speaker 2: finally broke through in southern California, and I took all 1038 00:53:38,840 --> 00:53:42,080 Speaker 2: of it dan Byer my pace to self wore it. 1039 00:53:42,480 --> 00:53:45,960 Speaker 2: But good luck and be safe out there on the 1040 00:53:46,080 --> 00:53:47,960 Speaker 2: roads if you're affected by some of them. But we're 1041 00:53:47,960 --> 00:53:51,959 Speaker 2: still seeing snow right, Cubs Dodgers game where they're talking 1042 00:53:51,960 --> 00:53:55,640 Speaker 2: about frigid temperatures and flurries and all of those things. 1043 00:53:55,719 --> 00:54:00,319 Speaker 2: But we're looking at at these games. It just UPU 1044 00:54:00,360 --> 00:54:03,000 Speaker 2: skates right, was the Dylan Brooks. The point I was 1045 00:54:03,040 --> 00:54:05,879 Speaker 2: trying to make was, you know, we've got Sports Center 1046 00:54:06,239 --> 00:54:09,160 Speaker 2: rolling through right replays and what do they keep going 1047 00:54:09,200 --> 00:54:13,120 Speaker 2: back to the confrontation Brooks and James before the game, 1048 00:54:13,480 --> 00:54:15,880 Speaker 2: And here they were before and here they are. We 1049 00:54:16,160 --> 00:54:18,320 Speaker 2: don't know what they're saying, but they had a moment 1050 00:54:18,640 --> 00:54:21,759 Speaker 2: before the game tipped off. All right, here's Lebron in 1051 00:54:21,840 --> 00:54:23,799 Speaker 2: the post of how he's not going to take the bait, 1052 00:54:23,920 --> 00:54:26,520 Speaker 2: even though he's now going to elaborate on how he's 1053 00:54:26,560 --> 00:54:28,640 Speaker 2: been in it so long, he's not going to take 1054 00:54:28,680 --> 00:54:31,480 Speaker 2: the bait. All of those things. But it's it's like 1055 00:54:31,640 --> 00:54:34,520 Speaker 2: building up. Like I joked about it, we went to 1056 00:54:35,000 --> 00:54:38,000 Speaker 2: WrestleMania a few weeks ago and we chronicled that that 1057 00:54:38,200 --> 00:54:40,719 Speaker 2: on the air. Dan feels like it's the same thing 1058 00:54:40,760 --> 00:54:42,800 Speaker 2: because they call it the Road to WrestleMania. There's a 1059 00:54:42,840 --> 00:54:46,320 Speaker 2: couple of months of storylines that they really try to 1060 00:54:46,480 --> 00:54:49,640 Speaker 2: bring to a and that feels like where the NBA 1061 00:54:49,840 --> 00:54:51,600 Speaker 2: is with a lot of these like you've got you 1062 00:54:51,680 --> 00:54:54,440 Speaker 2: got to have the heroes and villains as opposed to hey, 1063 00:54:54,800 --> 00:54:56,960 Speaker 2: did he just beat him and take him off the dribble. 1064 00:54:57,239 --> 00:55:01,400 Speaker 2: It's saying what's going off in the in the locker 1065 00:55:01,480 --> 00:55:05,000 Speaker 2: rooms and in front of microphones to try to sell sell, 1066 00:55:05,120 --> 00:55:07,920 Speaker 2: sell hell heavyweight fights, right, we had one last night 1067 00:55:08,280 --> 00:55:10,520 Speaker 2: that had a lot of eyeballs and and ends with 1068 00:55:10,600 --> 00:55:13,680 Speaker 2: a body shot and all that, but most of it 1069 00:55:13,840 --> 00:55:15,279 Speaker 2: is about all right. I think it all fight at 1070 00:55:15,320 --> 00:55:16,280 Speaker 2: the wage. 1071 00:55:16,520 --> 00:55:20,840 Speaker 3: The I tread carefully of these situations, Mike, because I 1072 00:55:20,920 --> 00:55:26,000 Speaker 3: feel that I'm hyper critical about the NBA because I 1073 00:55:26,080 --> 00:55:30,360 Speaker 3: do think it's exhausting, and in pointing out these faults, 1074 00:55:30,840 --> 00:55:33,800 Speaker 3: I do realize that there is I do. I do 1075 00:55:34,040 --> 00:55:37,680 Speaker 3: find some value into what Dylan Brooks is doing. I 1076 00:55:37,920 --> 00:55:42,120 Speaker 3: do find actually some value into what Raymond Green is doing. 1077 00:55:42,880 --> 00:55:48,440 Speaker 3: And the problem is, though, is it just becomes all encompassing, 1078 00:55:49,120 --> 00:55:50,840 Speaker 3: like it takes over it. 1079 00:55:51,000 --> 00:55:52,839 Speaker 2: Just as it takes all the oxygen out of the room. 1080 00:55:53,040 --> 00:55:56,040 Speaker 3: Yes, it's it does. It's it's the you know, the 1081 00:55:56,120 --> 00:55:59,160 Speaker 3: weeds that just grow out of control and take over 1082 00:55:59,239 --> 00:56:02,439 Speaker 3: the beautiful law. Like that's that's what it ends up doing. 1083 00:56:02,480 --> 00:56:06,080 Speaker 3: Like there's a place for it, there's, but there's just 1084 00:56:07,280 --> 00:56:11,560 Speaker 3: where where it's being over overshadowing the actual games that 1085 00:56:11,640 --> 00:56:13,840 Speaker 3: are going on in the outcomes, and I think, what 1086 00:56:14,080 --> 00:56:17,040 Speaker 3: what they need to work in concert with each other, 1087 00:56:17,600 --> 00:56:21,000 Speaker 3: because I don't think people were concerned or the conversation 1088 00:56:21,280 --> 00:56:24,879 Speaker 3: was Lakers up to one now on the GRIZ, it's 1089 00:56:26,000 --> 00:56:29,600 Speaker 3: Dylan Brooks ejected, and what's Lebron going to do about it? 1090 00:56:29,719 --> 00:56:32,600 Speaker 3: Like there was I mean, I think the Lakers win 1091 00:56:32,760 --> 00:56:35,960 Speaker 3: was third last night and Jahn Morant's you know, fourth 1092 00:56:36,040 --> 00:56:38,560 Speaker 3: quarter and like that seemed even more of a story 1093 00:56:38,600 --> 00:56:41,279 Speaker 3: than the Lakers actually going up to one and having 1094 00:56:41,320 --> 00:56:45,279 Speaker 3: a legitimate chance at winning the series. In maybe Mike 1095 00:56:45,360 --> 00:56:46,200 Speaker 3: winning it quickly. 1096 00:56:46,560 --> 00:56:50,800 Speaker 2: Sensationalism, Dan Byer, Yeah, as a news man, do you 1097 00:56:50,960 --> 00:56:54,919 Speaker 2: know that? Yeah, leads it leads or if you rolled 1098 00:56:54,920 --> 00:56:57,239 Speaker 2: around on the ground after a questionable hit. 1099 00:56:57,800 --> 00:56:59,560 Speaker 3: I get it, I get it. It's just too it's 1100 00:56:59,600 --> 00:57:00,759 Speaker 3: just a little too a lot. 1101 00:57:01,520 --> 00:57:03,960 Speaker 2: It's a lot to take in. He's Dan Bayer.

We talked 1111 00:57:28,080 --> 00:57:30,880 Speaker 2: about the Cardinals uniforms. Who's in them and how do 1112 00:57:30,960 --> 00:57:33,480 Speaker 2: they fill it at number three? If they're there at all. 1113 00:57:33,560 --> 00:57:36,080 Speaker 2: We'll talk about it next on Fox when they're on 1114 00:57:36,240 --> 00:57:39,120 Speaker 2: the board. Now, Reports this week, Dan in addition to 1115 00:57:39,200 --> 00:57:42,280 Speaker 2: DeAndre Hopkins and Buddha Baker both saying, hey, we kind 1116 00:57:42,280 --> 00:57:46,160 Speaker 2: of went out Hopkins a little more behind the scenes, 1117 00:57:46,240 --> 00:57:49,800 Speaker 2: but out there, uh and then Buddha Baker, Uh, well 1118 00:57:50,000 --> 00:57:52,040 Speaker 2: pretty much out there just saying this is what I want. 1119 00:57:52,680 --> 00:57:54,680 Speaker 2: So we're getting all the rumors of what they might 1120 00:57:54,920 --> 00:57:58,200 Speaker 2: bring in return for the Cardinals, but the Cardinals making 1121 00:57:58,240 --> 00:58:00,400 Speaker 2: it known, Hey, the number three pick can be yes, 1122 00:58:00,800 --> 00:58:04,200 Speaker 2: especially if you are a quarterback desperate squad, and when 1123 00:58:04,240 --> 00:58:07,720 Speaker 2: we look at the Cardinals as currently constituted, yeah, there's 1124 00:58:07,760 --> 00:58:11,120 Speaker 2: a lot of areas of need. So again, like we 1125 00:58:11,200 --> 00:58:14,160 Speaker 2: talked about with the Texans last hour, you're not one 1126 00:58:14,360 --> 00:58:18,880 Speaker 2: player away and you've already signed your quarterback ergo if 1127 00:58:18,920 --> 00:58:21,040 Speaker 2: someone else wants to come up, even if it's two 1128 00:58:21,200 --> 00:58:25,000 Speaker 2: spots or whatever the case may be, to grab their guy, 1129 00:58:25,680 --> 00:58:27,959 Speaker 2: please come and take it and see if you can't 1130 00:58:28,040 --> 00:58:29,640 Speaker 2: add another Day two pick. 1131 00:58:29,840 --> 00:58:33,919 Speaker 3: There's there's no there's no doubt about it. Twenty twenty 1132 00:58:34,000 --> 00:58:36,120 Speaker 3: three is a wasted year for the Arizona Cardinals. 1133 00:58:36,840 --> 00:58:37,080 Speaker 1: It is. 1134 00:58:37,640 --> 00:58:40,760 Speaker 3: There's there's not going to be a Seahawks revival after 1135 00:58:40,800 --> 00:58:42,320 Speaker 3: the Russell Wilson trade. 1136 00:58:42,560 --> 00:58:44,280 Speaker 2: Can you just start chanting GINO for me. 1137 00:58:44,400 --> 00:58:47,640 Speaker 3: No know, j No, that's for later in the show. 1138 00:58:47,880 --> 00:58:52,439 Speaker 3: The Cardinals scenario like it's I am not rushing Kyler 1139 00:58:52,520 --> 00:58:56,680 Speaker 3: Murray back, not at all, Like that is that is 1140 00:58:56,840 --> 00:59:02,440 Speaker 3: not happening. So you just take twenty twenty three, you 1141 00:59:02,520 --> 00:59:05,760 Speaker 3: swallow your pride, where the new uniforms get as much 1142 00:59:05,840 --> 00:59:08,440 Speaker 3: mileage out of that as you can. Perfect timing for 1143 00:59:08,520 --> 00:59:11,320 Speaker 3: that because the process had been in place for a 1144 00:59:11,440 --> 00:59:11,880 Speaker 3: year or two. 1145 00:59:12,120 --> 00:59:13,880 Speaker 2: Hey hey, you got to give me the old razzle 1146 00:59:13,960 --> 00:59:17,880 Speaker 2: dazzle there, Dan here, look over here, we got your uniforms. 1147 00:59:18,000 --> 00:59:19,960 Speaker 3: Buy all the new gear because you need it new. 1148 00:59:20,120 --> 00:59:21,600 Speaker 3: But we're just we're not going to win a lot 1149 00:59:21,600 --> 00:59:24,640 Speaker 3: of football games. And that's okay. That's that's There are 1150 00:59:24,720 --> 00:59:28,840 Speaker 3: circumstances that led to that, some of their own doing, 1151 00:59:29,160 --> 00:59:31,960 Speaker 3: some not of their own doing. But what I find 1152 00:59:32,040 --> 00:59:35,360 Speaker 3: interesting about three, Mike, is three is the spot for 1153 00:59:35,480 --> 00:59:37,720 Speaker 3: a team to trade up. And I don't think that 1154 00:59:37,800 --> 00:59:39,960 Speaker 3: they're going to have to give up the world to 1155 00:59:40,200 --> 00:59:44,480 Speaker 3: do it. Where if you were Tennessee at eleven, and 1156 00:59:44,600 --> 00:59:49,720 Speaker 3: I've seen some mock drafts project this, I think that 1157 00:59:49,880 --> 00:59:53,680 Speaker 3: you have the opportunity to try to trade up and 1158 00:59:54,520 --> 00:59:57,320 Speaker 3: you know, in my mind draft Anthony Richardson at that spot, 1159 00:59:57,360 --> 00:59:59,760 Speaker 3: if that's if Richardson is still on the board at 1160 01:00:01,480 --> 01:00:03,120 Speaker 3: and I just look at Tennessee because I think it 1161 01:00:03,120 --> 01:00:06,360 Speaker 3: would be a really good fit because you're now transitioning 1162 01:00:06,880 --> 01:00:10,800 Speaker 3: from the Ryan Tannehill era, the Derrick Henry era into 1163 01:00:10,880 --> 01:00:11,480 Speaker 3: something new. 1164 01:00:11,640 --> 01:00:14,160 Speaker 2: Well, because that's the question you just mentioned the Derrick 1165 01:00:14,240 --> 01:00:21,200 Speaker 2: Henry era right rumored Philadelphia or elsewhere income draft week 1166 01:00:21,400 --> 01:00:25,520 Speaker 2: or perhaps after the draft, but either way, another veteran 1167 01:00:25,600 --> 01:00:27,320 Speaker 2: that may be on the move. So we're talking about 1168 01:00:27,360 --> 01:00:31,560 Speaker 2: hard resets in a lot of these spaces to the 1169 01:00:31,680 --> 01:00:32,760 Speaker 2: new era as it were. 1170 01:00:33,080 --> 01:00:37,080 Speaker 3: And you've got a new front office there, so now 1171 01:00:37,120 --> 01:00:39,000 Speaker 3: you have an opportunity to bring in a star who, 1172 01:00:39,240 --> 01:00:42,120 Speaker 3: by the way, maybe is an NFL ready to play 1173 01:00:42,200 --> 01:00:44,720 Speaker 3: right now. So if you want to keep Tannehill, you know, 1174 01:00:44,800 --> 01:00:47,560 Speaker 3: in twenty twenty three and not hand the you know, 1175 01:00:48,200 --> 01:00:53,000 Speaker 3: football over to a rookie quarterback, that allows that opportunity. 1176 01:00:53,240 --> 01:00:56,800 Speaker 3: I think Tennessee is so ripe to jump up from 1177 01:00:56,880 --> 01:01:01,240 Speaker 3: eleven two three, And if I'm the Cardinals, I do that. 1178 01:01:01,840 --> 01:01:03,640 Speaker 3: I do that for a couple of reasons. I do 1179 01:01:03,720 --> 01:01:06,600 Speaker 3: that deal because a number one next year is probably 1180 01:01:06,800 --> 01:01:09,760 Speaker 3: would have to be included. I shouldn't say probably would 1181 01:01:09,840 --> 01:01:12,400 Speaker 3: have to be included. And how good are they going 1182 01:01:12,480 --> 01:01:12,600 Speaker 3: to be? 1183 01:01:13,000 --> 01:01:13,040 Speaker 6: Like? 1184 01:01:13,160 --> 01:01:15,920 Speaker 3: Really, how good is Tennessee going to be? Especially too 1185 01:01:16,040 --> 01:01:19,360 Speaker 3: if you're moving on from Derrick Henry or you're you know, 1186 01:01:19,480 --> 01:01:21,080 Speaker 3: doing what you would need to do. But I think 1187 01:01:21,120 --> 01:01:24,040 Speaker 3: it would it would. It would help Tennessee. They get 1188 01:01:24,080 --> 01:01:27,760 Speaker 3: their future star in Anthony Richardson at quarterback and then 1189 01:01:27,800 --> 01:01:29,800 Speaker 3: allow the Cardinals to be like, all right, so we 1190 01:01:29,920 --> 01:01:33,400 Speaker 3: drop back eight spots. Maybe number eleven doesn't help us overall, 1191 01:01:33,760 --> 01:01:35,520 Speaker 3: but next year's the year that we make the hay 1192 01:01:35,640 --> 01:01:37,760 Speaker 3: because we have two high picks in the first round. 1193 01:01:38,120 --> 01:01:40,800 Speaker 3: Kyler Murray's fully healthy, and you go from there, like, 1194 01:01:40,920 --> 01:01:43,440 Speaker 3: that's that's how I see three playing out as a 1195 01:01:43,480 --> 01:01:46,240 Speaker 3: team like Tennessee jumping up and taking the pick from 1196 01:01:46,240 --> 01:01:47,760 Speaker 3: the Cardinals because I don't think there's any way that 1197 01:01:47,800 --> 01:01:49,080 Speaker 3: the Cardinals should keep that pick. 1198 01:01:49,320 --> 01:01:53,120 Speaker 2: No, there's too much going on, too many stars wanting out, 1199 01:01:53,880 --> 01:01:56,080 Speaker 2: and so you get to have a bevy of picks, 1200 01:01:56,680 --> 01:02:00,400 Speaker 2: so you reset things. Right, this is where you try 1201 01:02:00,440 --> 01:02:03,320 Speaker 2: to find that balance with the money that you spent 1202 01:02:03,440 --> 01:02:07,880 Speaker 2: on Kyler Murray, right because right now that's overweighted. Plus 1203 01:02:07,960 --> 01:02:11,080 Speaker 2: he's not available to you. So it's the Colt McCoy show, yes, 1204 01:02:11,160 --> 01:02:14,320 Speaker 2: at least to start things. And so as it goes south. 1205 01:02:14,400 --> 01:02:17,360 Speaker 2: You know with Tennessee, what's interesting is in that division. 1206 01:02:18,480 --> 01:02:22,560 Speaker 2: You know, Jacksonville, we all assume it's the next step, 1207 01:02:22,800 --> 01:02:26,680 Speaker 2: right for Peterson, for Trevor Lawrence. You bring in Calvin 1208 01:02:26,760 --> 01:02:30,120 Speaker 2: Ridley off his suspension at ten as hell like all 1209 01:02:30,200 --> 01:02:33,240 Speaker 2: of these things. You know, Christian Kirk had a massive 1210 01:02:33,400 --> 01:02:36,480 Speaker 2: year after being mocked for his contract. Good on him, 1211 01:02:37,080 --> 01:02:40,080 Speaker 2: good on him, and on all of those things come together. 1212 01:02:40,520 --> 01:02:42,520 Speaker 2: But you're looking at a division that otherwise it's going 1213 01:02:42,560 --> 01:02:45,680 Speaker 2: to cannibalize itself because you got three teams that are 1214 01:02:45,840 --> 01:02:48,880 Speaker 2: gonna be just just good enough to steal a game 1215 01:02:49,000 --> 01:02:51,560 Speaker 2: with their defense here and there, but not good enough 1216 01:02:51,640 --> 01:02:52,360 Speaker 2: to run and hide. 1217 01:02:52,480 --> 01:02:54,880 Speaker 3: I don't think Arizona and Tennessee are that different from 1218 01:02:54,920 --> 01:02:58,840 Speaker 3: each other except with what they have at the quarterback position. 1219 01:02:59,240 --> 01:03:01,959 Speaker 3: But that's what this is all about. Like this sort 1220 01:03:02,000 --> 01:03:05,120 Speaker 3: of move and why you know why the Cardinals probably 1221 01:03:05,160 --> 01:03:07,440 Speaker 3: should trade out of three because as you said, they 1222 01:03:07,480 --> 01:03:09,840 Speaker 3: have their quarterback and he's under contract. Probably is he's 1223 01:03:09,920 --> 01:03:13,640 Speaker 3: just not healthy and Tennessee needs a quarterback. I also don't. 1224 01:03:13,920 --> 01:03:15,960 Speaker 3: I don't think that there's going to be as much 1225 01:03:16,080 --> 01:03:20,760 Speaker 3: of a rat race of teams trying to trade up, 1226 01:03:21,880 --> 01:03:25,040 Speaker 3: you know, to get that quarterback spot. So if, as 1227 01:03:25,120 --> 01:03:27,120 Speaker 3: you said, the report comes out that the Cardinals have 1228 01:03:27,200 --> 01:03:29,760 Speaker 3: been fielding calls, what six teams? Is that what Schefter said, 1229 01:03:29,800 --> 01:03:31,919 Speaker 3: I think it was that's what the Cardinals told him. Yeah, 1230 01:03:32,360 --> 01:03:35,680 Speaker 3: it's yeah, you're right. I don't I don't know how 1231 01:03:35,760 --> 01:03:38,080 Speaker 3: accurate that is. There's a reason that that one got 1232 01:03:38,120 --> 01:03:40,560 Speaker 3: out there, and I have a feeling that the offers 1233 01:03:40,600 --> 01:03:43,800 Speaker 3: that they have gotten for that pick are probably not 1234 01:03:44,240 --> 01:03:46,640 Speaker 3: enough where you would move into the past. But they 1235 01:03:46,720 --> 01:03:49,320 Speaker 3: really may have no option to do so, and they 1236 01:03:49,360 --> 01:03:51,120 Speaker 3: may just have to take the best offer because it's 1237 01:03:51,160 --> 01:03:52,840 Speaker 3: what's best for them. And if you would look at 1238 01:03:53,240 --> 01:03:55,760 Speaker 3: Tennessee comes up and says, we've got this now, we're 1239 01:03:55,760 --> 01:03:57,280 Speaker 3: only going to give you this much, but again, we'll 1240 01:03:57,280 --> 01:03:59,480 Speaker 3: give you our first rounder next year, which is likely 1241 01:03:59,560 --> 01:04:01,560 Speaker 3: to be top ten because we're gonna stink as well. 1242 01:04:02,000 --> 01:04:04,360 Speaker 3: I think that's enough for Arizona to want to, you know, 1243 01:04:04,640 --> 01:04:06,400 Speaker 3: do that move and drop the eight spots. 1244 01:04:06,520 --> 01:04:09,160 Speaker 2: It's the fun curiosity that we brought up a little 1245 01:04:09,160 --> 01:04:12,000 Speaker 2: bit talking about the draft last week. Dan is from 1246 01:04:12,040 --> 01:04:15,600 Speaker 2: an excitement level, it's just the curiosity of who decides 1247 01:04:15,680 --> 01:04:18,760 Speaker 2: to make that move, why they make that move, because 1248 01:04:18,880 --> 01:04:21,040 Speaker 2: because you don't have the players that you're rushing up 1249 01:04:21,520 --> 01:04:24,120 Speaker 2: to get right, because if they were to stay at 1250 01:04:24,240 --> 01:04:28,280 Speaker 2: this spot, well, this could be the Anderson pick. JJ 1251 01:04:28,400 --> 01:04:30,880 Speaker 2: Watt goes into retirement, can't get out of a sandtrap. 1252 01:04:31,240 --> 01:04:33,040 Speaker 2: We need to talk about the Yes, I saw that 1253 01:04:33,600 --> 01:04:35,800 Speaker 2: Jared Smith helped him. Yeah, that's that's a whole other 1254 01:04:35,880 --> 01:04:38,760 Speaker 2: thing going on. But just the idea that you don't 1255 01:04:38,800 --> 01:04:41,200 Speaker 2: have that I need to go get that player you've 1256 01:04:41,240 --> 01:04:44,240 Speaker 2: got Richardson, who's that curiosity like this would be that 1257 01:04:44,480 --> 01:04:48,080 Speaker 2: move for Tennessee if they issued the other guys who 1258 01:04:48,160 --> 01:04:52,880 Speaker 2: made draft as more NFL ready now to say, all right, 1259 01:04:53,320 --> 01:04:56,560 Speaker 2: we can bring him in, refine him that whole thing, 1260 01:04:57,200 --> 01:05:00,360 Speaker 2: and bring him to that next level to execute. Because 1261 01:05:00,400 --> 01:05:03,920 Speaker 2: everybody that watches the tape, if you take the selections 1262 01:05:04,080 --> 01:05:07,560 Speaker 2: of the best of it, it blows everything else sure 1263 01:05:07,680 --> 01:05:11,360 Speaker 2: way in a lot of respects. But there's so much 1264 01:05:11,440 --> 01:05:13,520 Speaker 2: on the accuracy and other stuff that need to be 1265 01:05:14,960 --> 01:05:18,600 Speaker 2: bolstered before he's ready to go, But do you take 1266 01:05:18,680 --> 01:05:22,160 Speaker 2: that shot? And if you're Tennessee, hell, if you're Indianapolis 1267 01:05:22,240 --> 01:05:25,720 Speaker 2: at that point, like rolling the dice on the long term, 1268 01:05:26,160 --> 01:05:29,120 Speaker 2: whether Ballard's got that leash anymore in Indianapolis is a 1269 01:05:29,120 --> 01:05:31,440 Speaker 2: whole other thing. But for Tennessee, you're kind of in 1270 01:05:31,560 --> 01:05:34,760 Speaker 2: that transitional space. Your defense is always going to be 1271 01:05:34,760 --> 01:05:38,000 Speaker 2: good enough to get you keep you around games, but 1272 01:05:38,200 --> 01:05:39,640 Speaker 2: is it good enough to get you over And if 1273 01:05:39,680 --> 01:05:41,480 Speaker 2: Derek Henry leaves all bets. 1274 01:05:41,360 --> 01:05:44,280 Speaker 3: Right, yeah, that's where then it becomes a top ten pick. 1275 01:05:45,000 --> 01:05:47,040 Speaker 3: And that's why you use it to trade up to 1276 01:05:47,120 --> 01:05:49,720 Speaker 3: get Anthony Richardson, which, by the way, I don't think 1277 01:05:49,720 --> 01:05:52,200 Speaker 3: you make that move for Will Evis or c J. Stroud. 1278 01:05:52,400 --> 01:05:55,440 Speaker 3: I think you only trade up to get Anthony Richardson. 1279 01:05:55,480 --> 01:05:56,320 Speaker 3: From what you just said. 1280 01:05:56,640 --> 01:05:59,960 Speaker 2: He's Dan Byron Mike carmon Fox Sports Sunday.

They led after the first quarter thirty 1290 01:06:30,280 --> 01:06:34,200 Speaker 5: five to nine. Anthony Davis thirty one points, seventeen rebounds, 1291 01:06:34,320 --> 01:06:38,800 Speaker 5: Lebron James twenty five points, nine rebounds, five assists. Memphisis 1292 01:06:38,920 --> 01:06:42,080 Speaker 5: John Moran scored forty five points, but Dylan Brooks of 1293 01:06:42,120 --> 01:06:45,560 Speaker 5: the Grizzlies was ejected for committing a flagrant foul penalty 1294 01:06:45,680 --> 01:06:49,040 Speaker 5: two on Lebron James in the third quarter. With that 1295 01:06:49,240 --> 01:06:52,160 Speaker 5: in mind, let's revisit what Brooks had to say about 1296 01:06:52,240 --> 01:06:53,800 Speaker 5: Lebron after Game two. 1297 01:06:54,200 --> 01:07:00,400 Speaker 4: I don't care, he's old. I pulled bears. Don't respect 1298 01:07:00,440 --> 01:07:03,000 Speaker 4: no one until they come and give me forty. 1299 01:07:03,800 --> 01:07:08,000 Speaker 5: Now, let's listen in on the Grizzlies postgame news conference 1300 01:07:08,040 --> 01:07:10,800 Speaker 5: from last night to hear what Brooks had to say. 1301 01:07:11,080 --> 01:07:14,520 Speaker 2: Adler here, Henderson here. 1302 01:07:15,160 --> 01:07:22,600 Speaker 5: Brooks Brooks, Brooks, Brooks, He's sick. 1303 01:07:23,200 --> 01:07:26,320 Speaker 2: My best friend's sister's boyfriend's brother's girlfriend heard from this 1304 01:07:26,440 --> 01:07:28,240 Speaker 2: guy who knows this kid is going with the. 1305 01:07:28,240 --> 01:07:31,160 Speaker 3: Girl's Brooks pats out at thirty one Flavors last night. 1306 01:07:31,400 --> 01:07:32,600 Speaker 3: I guess it's pretty serious. 1307 01:07:33,040 --> 01:07:38,560 Speaker 2: Thank you, Simon, no problem whatsoever.

Another 1479 01:17:19,320 --> 01:17:22,720 Speaker 2: dagger to hit me full slight of action. 1480 01:17:22,960 --> 01:17:25,639 Speaker 3: Who are the parents cheering for? You know, because now 1481 01:17:26,040 --> 01:17:29,040 Speaker 3: you know, since they're all Lightning fans, that they jumped 1482 01:17:29,240 --> 01:17:31,720 Speaker 3: ship to the rais what's funny? I go southside. 1483 01:17:31,880 --> 01:17:33,920 Speaker 2: But what's funny is my dad was always kind of 1484 01:17:36,160 --> 01:17:39,439 Speaker 2: appreciate sports, watch sports with us. Didn't really have a team. 1485 01:17:40,439 --> 01:17:42,679 Speaker 2: My brothers and I White Sox fans. My mom always 1486 01:17:42,680 --> 01:17:45,320 Speaker 2: a Cub fan. My mom has jumped from the Cubs 1487 01:17:46,040 --> 01:17:50,360 Speaker 2: and adopted these Rays over the midnight. Still pays attention 1488 01:17:50,439 --> 01:17:53,960 Speaker 2: to the Cubs, doesn't abandon them completely, But the Rays 1489 01:17:54,000 --> 01:17:56,200 Speaker 2: are the focal point. I don't know if that's you know, 1490 01:17:56,320 --> 01:17:59,120 Speaker 2: around the social social hours or whatever they need to 1491 01:17:59,120 --> 01:18:01,439 Speaker 2: be able to talk a little bit of raised baseball, 1492 01:18:01,600 --> 01:18:02,240 Speaker 2: But and. 1493 01:18:02,560 --> 01:18:04,960 Speaker 3: And I would you know, I'm sure it's because of 1494 01:18:05,080 --> 01:18:07,800 Speaker 3: the race, stadium and park much better than what the 1495 01:18:07,880 --> 01:18:09,240 Speaker 3: Cubs have, you know, with one. 1496 01:18:11,200 --> 01:18:13,519 Speaker 2: I mean you do get to do a two finger 1497 01:18:13,760 --> 01:18:17,280 Speaker 2: touch on a ray and swimming around in a circle. 1498 01:18:17,720 --> 01:18:21,559 Speaker 2: So you got that. You got tributes to uh raised legend. 1499 01:18:22,640 --> 01:18:26,360 Speaker 2: When you go visit the fans times. What's what's it like? 1500 01:18:26,760 --> 01:18:31,120 Speaker 2: It's awful, Yeah, it's awful. It's it's not quite hefty 1501 01:18:31,240 --> 01:18:38,080 Speaker 2: bag old Minnesota ballpark or that monstrosity that may finally 1502 01:18:38,200 --> 01:18:42,280 Speaker 2: be raised in Oakland. Not quite there, but it's it's 1503 01:18:42,360 --> 01:18:45,680 Speaker 2: nearing the metal stand. It's not a good uh not 1504 01:18:45,760 --> 01:18:49,080 Speaker 2: a good ballpark and fairly useless where it sits. 1505 01:18:49,240 --> 01:18:52,160 Speaker 3: One of my one of my biggest regrets in sports 1506 01:18:52,479 --> 01:18:56,800 Speaker 3: of places that I haven't hadn't gone and they're now gone. 1507 01:18:57,600 --> 01:19:00,400 Speaker 3: Candlestick was one of them. I should have gone, and 1508 01:19:00,479 --> 01:19:03,240 Speaker 3: I knew that you you know, lived up there. I'd 1509 01:19:03,479 --> 01:19:06,839 Speaker 3: been to the Metronome many times, but for college football, 1510 01:19:06,960 --> 01:19:10,360 Speaker 3: for pro football. Was there for college basketball. So I 1511 01:19:10,439 --> 01:19:14,240 Speaker 3: n CAA tournament games there and I missed and never 1512 01:19:14,320 --> 01:19:15,240 Speaker 3: went to a Twins game. 1513 01:19:15,320 --> 01:19:15,720 Speaker 2: How about that? 1514 01:19:15,800 --> 01:19:17,519 Speaker 3: And that's the one that's the one thing that I 1515 01:19:17,600 --> 01:19:20,519 Speaker 3: thought like with that place, like I should have should 1516 01:19:20,520 --> 01:19:20,960 Speaker 3: have done that. 1517 01:19:21,720 --> 01:19:26,160 Speaker 2: But oh well, I saw a Twins Seattle game many 1518 01:19:26,240 --> 01:19:29,439 Speaker 2: many years ago. Perhaps it was the game that also 1519 01:19:30,520 --> 01:19:33,919 Speaker 2: soured my experience because bad baseball. 1520 01:19:34,120 --> 01:19:36,920 Speaker 3: Well, hey, hey, I was gonna say if it had 1521 01:19:37,080 --> 01:19:38,880 Speaker 3: junior or a ron at some point. 1522 01:19:39,240 --> 01:19:43,240 Speaker 2: No, unfortunately did not not part of the festival. So 1523 01:19:44,080 --> 01:19:46,559 Speaker 2: but there you have, and all the highways and byways 1524 01:19:46,560 --> 01:19:49,720 Speaker 2: of life.

What 1536 01:20:23,720 --> 01:20:27,360 Speaker 2: are we expecting on Thursday night? As the festivities get rolling, 1537 01:20:27,400 --> 01:20:29,559 Speaker 2: We'll have all the coverage for you here on Fox 1538 01:20:29,600 --> 01:20:33,639 Speaker 2: Sports Radio, but the NBA playoffs talking about what it's 1539 01:20:34,000 --> 01:20:39,160 Speaker 2: it's drifted into between the regular season and the playoffs 1540 01:20:39,720 --> 01:20:44,599 Speaker 2: with regard to the noise and the noise rolling over 1541 01:20:44,920 --> 01:20:49,960 Speaker 2: anything happening in game except to feedback into said noise, 1542 01:20:50,000 --> 01:20:54,120 Speaker 2: the Dylan Bruce for instance. But we're also now having 1543 01:20:54,200 --> 01:20:58,280 Speaker 2: the issue where and it's something I don't bemoan in 1544 01:20:58,439 --> 01:21:02,479 Speaker 2: its existence. I gain I realize it Johnny and Susie 1545 01:21:02,520 --> 01:21:04,280 Speaker 2: up in the three hundred level that one time they 1546 01:21:04,320 --> 01:21:06,439 Speaker 2: want to go to a game, I get it, load 1547 01:21:06,560 --> 01:21:11,800 Speaker 2: management and maybe missing a player on the court that's 1548 01:21:11,880 --> 01:21:14,360 Speaker 2: not there. Remember you're cheering for laundry, and if you're 1549 01:21:14,360 --> 01:21:17,200 Speaker 2: going to a Cardinals game, it'll say Arizona, so you 1550 01:21:17,400 --> 01:21:20,320 Speaker 2: know that it's them and your squad. You got to 1551 01:21:20,360 --> 01:21:22,840 Speaker 2: listen to the whole show if the podcast will be 1552 01:21:22,920 --> 01:21:25,800 Speaker 2: up wherever you get your audio here in about two 1553 01:21:25,880 --> 01:21:28,800 Speaker 2: hours as we roll out of here on Fox Sports Radio. 1554 01:21:29,120 --> 01:21:32,400 Speaker 2: But the idea being now, how much does that bleed 1555 01:21:32,520 --> 01:21:36,559 Speaker 2: into where we are into the postseason and in Los 1556 01:21:36,600 --> 01:21:38,960 Speaker 2: Angeles in particular, it's the question being asked a lot 1557 01:21:39,040 --> 01:21:44,160 Speaker 2: with Kawhi Leonard of you had load management, you try 1558 01:21:44,240 --> 01:21:46,880 Speaker 2: to ratchet him back up, and he plays well, and 1559 01:21:47,040 --> 01:21:49,479 Speaker 2: coming into the playoffs, we had the conversation coming out 1560 01:21:49,520 --> 01:21:52,439 Speaker 2: of game two of this series with the Suns that 1561 01:21:52,520 --> 01:21:56,920 Speaker 2: they're now on the brink of elimination, that he was 1562 01:21:57,000 --> 01:21:59,960 Speaker 2: playing as well or better than anybody else in the NBA. 1563 01:22:00,160 --> 01:22:02,120 Speaker 2: It's like, all right, this could be a fun run. 1564 01:22:02,439 --> 01:22:05,400 Speaker 2: Clippers a team that we watched all seasons saying, well, 1565 01:22:05,439 --> 01:22:08,280 Speaker 2: they're built with some depth if they can stay healthy. 1566 01:22:08,280 --> 01:22:10,559 Speaker 2: And that's always the question mark. And we've talked about 1567 01:22:10,600 --> 01:22:13,000 Speaker 2: it a little bit this morning, and you've certainly heard 1568 01:22:13,000 --> 01:22:16,080 Speaker 2: it here on Fox Sports Radio as we all maybe 1569 01:22:16,160 --> 01:22:18,479 Speaker 2: shaking our fists at the cloud, going can we get 1570 01:22:18,520 --> 01:22:21,920 Speaker 2: everybody to play these games? But with Kawhi Leonard, now 1571 01:22:22,000 --> 01:22:25,719 Speaker 2: it's the was your body battle tested enough and ready 1572 01:22:25,760 --> 01:22:28,720 Speaker 2: for the riggers of playoff basketball? Tylu after Game one 1573 01:22:29,120 --> 01:22:32,160 Speaker 2: when he logged nearly forty two minutes, like, well, this 1574 01:22:32,360 --> 01:22:35,120 Speaker 2: is why we saved him. It's for stuff like this, 1575 01:22:35,439 --> 01:22:39,439 Speaker 2: for these kind of experience, these kind of moments and performances. Well, 1576 01:22:39,479 --> 01:22:41,320 Speaker 2: now he's unavailable in definitely. 1577 01:22:41,080 --> 01:22:43,439 Speaker 3: Yeah, I think that there's I think that there is 1578 01:22:43,560 --> 01:22:47,880 Speaker 3: a fine line in the conversation that we have and 1579 01:22:47,960 --> 01:22:49,760 Speaker 3: you have to get really down to it. But there 1580 01:22:50,160 --> 01:22:54,920 Speaker 3: there are two sides of it the Kawhi injury. Either 1581 01:22:55,680 --> 01:23:02,000 Speaker 3: you say that load management doesn't work because Kawhi got hurt, 1582 01:23:02,880 --> 01:23:05,400 Speaker 3: or there's just no point for load management because he's 1583 01:23:05,479 --> 01:23:06,240 Speaker 3: going to get hurt. 1584 01:23:06,920 --> 01:23:09,640 Speaker 2: So like if you're sitting at like ty lewis. 1585 01:23:09,320 --> 01:23:13,040 Speaker 3: Saying, we rested him because this was the guy that 1586 01:23:13,200 --> 01:23:17,120 Speaker 3: you got in game one, that's why we did that. 1587 01:23:17,280 --> 01:23:20,439 Speaker 3: Because the twenty games that he missed or how many 1588 01:23:20,479 --> 01:23:24,680 Speaker 3: games he missed, he's able to use that energy to 1589 01:23:24,880 --> 01:23:27,040 Speaker 3: now in the postseason to play a game like this. 1590 01:23:28,000 --> 01:23:32,880 Speaker 3: And I like, I don't think that if Kawhi would 1591 01:23:32,880 --> 01:23:36,639 Speaker 3: have played an eighty two game schedule, he still gets 1592 01:23:36,760 --> 01:23:39,960 Speaker 3: hurt in Game one. So I don't think that load 1593 01:23:40,120 --> 01:23:44,400 Speaker 3: management played an issue into this injury. And I think 1594 01:23:44,439 --> 01:23:47,479 Speaker 3: that we look at like there's two different arguments. As 1595 01:23:47,520 --> 01:23:52,479 Speaker 3: I said, with load management, Kawhi is an injury prone player. 1596 01:23:53,160 --> 01:23:56,680 Speaker 3: He is that is throughout his career. Now that we 1597 01:23:56,840 --> 01:24:01,000 Speaker 3: have seen it is it is now a problem. Mike. 1598 01:24:01,320 --> 01:24:04,719 Speaker 3: So whether he plays seventy games in the regular season 1599 01:24:05,320 --> 01:24:08,439 Speaker 3: or sixty games in the regular season or fifty games 1600 01:24:08,560 --> 01:24:11,840 Speaker 3: or forty or thirty because of the level of play 1601 01:24:11,920 --> 01:24:14,640 Speaker 3: that you that you can get in the playoffs. And 1602 01:24:15,000 --> 01:24:17,840 Speaker 3: let's be honest, just because of who Kawhi is, there's 1603 01:24:17,920 --> 01:24:20,080 Speaker 3: always going to be a risk of injury. And I 1604 01:24:20,120 --> 01:24:22,200 Speaker 3: don't think if Kawhi played thirty games where we played 1605 01:24:22,280 --> 01:24:25,080 Speaker 3: eighty games, he still gets hurt in Game one he 1606 01:24:25,200 --> 01:24:28,120 Speaker 3: sprains his knee. So it's not to me, it's not 1607 01:24:28,200 --> 01:24:31,439 Speaker 3: as much of a load management sort of conversation. And 1608 01:24:31,560 --> 01:24:35,640 Speaker 3: it reminds me of last year when Clayton Kershaw was 1609 01:24:35,680 --> 01:24:38,439 Speaker 3: pulled from his start was against the Tigers, right where 1610 01:24:38,479 --> 01:24:42,680 Speaker 3: he had a perfect game, and Dave Roberts explanation was, 1611 01:24:43,520 --> 01:24:45,519 Speaker 3: you know, we want we wanted to save him, like 1612 01:24:45,640 --> 01:24:48,280 Speaker 3: this was the deal. Well, if Kershaw is going to 1613 01:24:48,320 --> 01:24:51,479 Speaker 3: get hurt anyway later on in the season, that is 1614 01:24:51,600 --> 01:24:54,960 Speaker 3: not tied to load management because he's an older guy 1615 01:24:55,000 --> 01:24:59,559 Speaker 3: and he's injury prone now. And I'm using the air quotes, 1616 01:25:00,040 --> 01:25:01,599 Speaker 3: there was going to be a point where Clinton Kershaw 1617 01:25:01,720 --> 01:25:04,599 Speaker 3: was not going to be available to the Dodgers. Then 1618 01:25:04,680 --> 01:25:06,720 Speaker 3: what's the point of trying to save him for the 1619 01:25:06,800 --> 01:25:10,160 Speaker 3: two you know, those two innings, Like if he's going 1620 01:25:10,240 --> 01:25:12,080 Speaker 3: to get hurt. Then it doesn't really have anything to 1621 01:25:12,160 --> 01:25:15,200 Speaker 3: do with with load management, does it. You're like you're 1622 01:25:15,320 --> 01:25:18,280 Speaker 3: trying to dodge things that are just impossible to dodge. 1623 01:25:18,400 --> 01:25:20,960 Speaker 3: And that's how I feel with Kawhi Leonard, where now 1624 01:25:21,000 --> 01:25:23,200 Speaker 3: we're to the point where the guy is just injury 1625 01:25:23,360 --> 01:25:26,439 Speaker 3: prone and load management or not. This isn't because he 1626 01:25:26,760 --> 01:25:29,679 Speaker 3: missed thirty games to sit out. This is just because 1627 01:25:29,720 --> 01:25:31,760 Speaker 3: the guy can play in any game and get hurt. 1628 01:25:32,160 --> 01:25:34,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, And I think that's the hard part in trying 1629 01:25:34,439 --> 01:25:37,400 Speaker 2: to reconcile this we acquire any of the other players 1630 01:25:37,439 --> 01:25:41,240 Speaker 2: where this falls into because look, you sign your contract 1631 01:25:41,360 --> 01:25:45,320 Speaker 2: and in your conversations with your squad, Look, no matter 1632 01:25:45,400 --> 01:25:47,280 Speaker 2: what you do, right, this is all you out there, 1633 01:25:47,680 --> 01:25:51,599 Speaker 2: whatever jobs you have, you try to flex whatever power 1634 01:25:51,800 --> 01:25:55,760 Speaker 2: you think you have. Right and if that means, hey, 1635 01:25:55,800 --> 01:25:58,200 Speaker 2: I'm not playing back the second night of back to backs, 1636 01:25:58,439 --> 01:26:01,200 Speaker 2: all right, there's flex number one. If the I don't 1637 01:26:01,200 --> 01:26:04,879 Speaker 2: want to go on this road trip because of XYZ, 1638 01:26:05,720 --> 01:26:07,600 Speaker 2: maybe you got enough power to say that. Because an 1639 01:26:07,600 --> 01:26:11,560 Speaker 2: eighty two game season, as we've seen, man be mediocre 1640 01:26:11,640 --> 01:26:14,760 Speaker 2: and you're in the playoffs. Yeah, so all you need 1641 01:26:14,880 --> 01:26:17,280 Speaker 2: to be is punched into the dance and then in 1642 01:26:17,640 --> 01:26:19,840 Speaker 2: theory you're guys ready with curse you. I never I 1643 01:26:19,880 --> 01:26:22,120 Speaker 2: didn't understand it at the day, and now you bring 1644 01:26:22,200 --> 01:26:24,000 Speaker 2: it back up. It gets me and sensed again. It's 1645 01:26:24,040 --> 01:26:26,960 Speaker 2: like those twenty pitches or twenty five pitches, those were 1646 01:26:26,960 --> 01:26:29,479 Speaker 2: gonna really be the end his ten twenty two to 1647 01:26:29,520 --> 01:26:33,479 Speaker 2: twenty two, those are his starts in those years. So 1648 01:26:34,200 --> 01:26:37,000 Speaker 2: you're already kind of building in the idea that he's 1649 01:26:37,040 --> 01:26:39,240 Speaker 2: probably gonna miss some time. Yes, where those twenty pitches 1650 01:26:39,240 --> 01:26:41,960 Speaker 2: is gonna take him over with Kawhi, I can understand 1651 01:26:42,320 --> 01:26:45,840 Speaker 2: at least the logic to a degree of you haven't 1652 01:26:45,920 --> 01:26:50,479 Speaker 2: played that many stressful minutes with this kind of because 1653 01:26:50,479 --> 01:26:53,840 Speaker 2: you've been able to pace yourself through it. So load 1654 01:26:53,920 --> 01:26:57,200 Speaker 2: management to a degree with nights off in the regular 1655 01:26:57,280 --> 01:27:00,640 Speaker 2: season and everything else, and not play those back to 1656 01:27:00,720 --> 01:27:04,120 Speaker 2: backs that maybe from a stress and the game is different, right, 1657 01:27:04,160 --> 01:27:07,519 Speaker 2: it is played differently in the playoffs that you might 1658 01:27:07,560 --> 01:27:10,479 Speaker 2: be an argument that you weren't ready for that load 1659 01:27:10,680 --> 01:27:13,680 Speaker 2: on your body. Either way, it's still two games, and 1660 01:27:13,920 --> 01:27:17,880 Speaker 2: history says that the potential is much higher. Right. Once 1661 01:27:17,960 --> 01:27:22,120 Speaker 2: it's you've had that injury, the reaggravation likelihood or or 1662 01:27:22,320 --> 01:27:24,080 Speaker 2: side effects of it are are going to be that 1663 01:27:24,160 --> 01:27:24,760 Speaker 2: much higher my. 1664 01:27:24,880 --> 01:27:27,120 Speaker 3: Understanding, and it could be wrong, but from the reports 1665 01:27:27,120 --> 01:27:29,439 Speaker 3: that I read that this injury does not have anything 1666 01:27:29,520 --> 01:27:32,840 Speaker 3: to do with his ACL injury, and so this isn't 1667 01:27:33,000 --> 01:27:35,280 Speaker 3: like to me, This isn't a guy coming back from 1668 01:27:35,320 --> 01:27:39,600 Speaker 3: an ACL and pulls a hamstring or injures his achilles 1669 01:27:39,640 --> 01:27:42,599 Speaker 3: because he's trying to come back too soon. They're separate. 1670 01:27:42,840 --> 01:27:45,240 Speaker 3: He sprained his knee, which is different than a pulled 1671 01:27:45,360 --> 01:27:47,760 Speaker 3: muscle or you know, or you pull your hamstring, you 1672 01:27:47,840 --> 01:27:51,320 Speaker 3: pull your groin, you have a calf strain like those 1673 01:27:51,439 --> 01:27:53,600 Speaker 3: things can happen, Mike, when you're not used to that 1674 01:27:53,760 --> 01:27:56,040 Speaker 3: sort of thing. You can sprain your knee playing in 1675 01:27:56,080 --> 01:27:58,040 Speaker 3: a pickup game. You can sprain your knee playing and 1676 01:27:58,439 --> 01:28:00,960 Speaker 3: you know in practice at any point, well, we saw. 1677 01:28:00,920 --> 01:28:03,519 Speaker 2: Kevin Durant fall down in the layup line. 1678 01:28:03,760 --> 01:28:07,720 Speaker 3: Yes, yes, exactly. And that's the point where it's where 1679 01:28:07,760 --> 01:28:10,160 Speaker 3: it's just the fine line of it. If you can 1680 01:28:10,280 --> 01:28:15,560 Speaker 3: look at like there's there's really no plan that the 1681 01:28:15,640 --> 01:28:19,200 Speaker 3: Clippers really have any idea of what works, and this 1682 01:28:19,400 --> 01:28:22,200 Speaker 3: is not meant to knock them at all. It's just 1683 01:28:22,320 --> 01:28:24,360 Speaker 3: the point of how do you know what's best for 1684 01:28:24,560 --> 01:28:28,320 Speaker 3: Kawhai's body when he is likely going to get hurt 1685 01:28:28,360 --> 01:28:31,120 Speaker 3: at some point. Look, Victor Oladipo had to be helped 1686 01:28:31,160 --> 01:28:33,439 Speaker 3: off the court last night in their win against the 1687 01:28:33,479 --> 01:28:36,639 Speaker 3: Miami Heat. Another of what appeared to be a serious 1688 01:28:36,720 --> 01:28:41,040 Speaker 3: injury for Victor Oladipo. Absolutely stinks. But this is the 1689 01:28:41,200 --> 01:28:44,920 Speaker 3: third time in his career where there's been apparently a 1690 01:28:45,000 --> 01:28:48,720 Speaker 3: significant injury, and you really feel for the guy. But 1691 01:28:48,840 --> 01:28:51,599 Speaker 3: there's also a reason why some guys have three major 1692 01:28:51,680 --> 01:28:54,600 Speaker 3: injuries and some guys never have one at all. And 1693 01:28:55,040 --> 01:28:57,519 Speaker 3: that's like, that's the point of it of like Kawhi 1694 01:28:57,680 --> 01:29:00,439 Speaker 3: is now an injury prone player, and you and I 1695 01:29:00,520 --> 01:29:02,840 Speaker 3: could get into you know, where Kawhi is in terms 1696 01:29:02,880 --> 01:29:06,559 Speaker 3: of a player. I just I think that's it's way 1697 01:29:06,680 --> 01:29:09,040 Speaker 3: too difficult of a scenario or a situation for the 1698 01:29:09,080 --> 01:29:12,439 Speaker 3: Clippers to figure out a plan for him to It's 1699 01:29:12,560 --> 01:29:15,559 Speaker 3: probably best that he plays zero regular season games because 1700 01:29:15,640 --> 01:29:17,799 Speaker 3: by the looks of it, any game that he plays, 1701 01:29:17,840 --> 01:29:19,880 Speaker 3: he could come down with an injury. Yeah, you know, 1702 01:29:20,040 --> 01:29:23,280 Speaker 3: because of and I don't want to use the word fragile, 1703 01:29:23,280 --> 01:29:25,160 Speaker 3: because I think it's a lot heavier in the scenario, 1704 01:29:25,320 --> 01:29:28,719 Speaker 3: but I'll use it anyway of right now, how fragile 1705 01:29:29,160 --> 01:29:30,760 Speaker 3: Kawhi is in these situations? 1706 01:29:30,840 --> 01:29:34,080 Speaker 2: Yeah, and it's it's not. It sounds like a pejorative term, 1707 01:29:34,120 --> 01:29:36,040 Speaker 2: but it's not. It's just trying to be real with 1708 01:29:36,200 --> 01:29:39,760 Speaker 2: where he's at physically and expectation. That's got to be 1709 01:29:39,800 --> 01:29:41,960 Speaker 2: the worst of all scenarios because you look at this 1710 01:29:42,040 --> 01:29:44,080 Speaker 2: squad and as we talked about going back a couple 1711 01:29:44,120 --> 01:29:46,920 Speaker 2: of years, right when he got hurt in the ACL injury, 1712 01:29:47,280 --> 01:29:50,160 Speaker 2: you had a team that looked destined to make a 1713 01:29:50,280 --> 01:29:54,599 Speaker 2: run and we're ready to go. Well orchestrated, well built squad. 1714 01:29:55,120 --> 01:29:58,200 Speaker 2: He goes down this year, you've got to get to 1715 01:29:58,280 --> 01:30:01,400 Speaker 2: the playoffs. You've got a Western Conference that you get 1716 01:30:01,960 --> 01:30:04,360 Speaker 2: a lot of teams that nobody believes in. Now, how 1717 01:30:04,439 --> 01:30:07,680 Speaker 2: good Denver is We're still trying to assess that, right, 1718 01:30:08,000 --> 01:30:10,679 Speaker 2: But Jamal Murray is a guy that has already eclipsed 1719 01:30:10,720 --> 01:30:13,800 Speaker 2: a lot of big names in terms of big playoff performances. 1720 01:30:13,880 --> 01:30:17,200 Speaker 2: Jokic night in, night out, Michael Porter Junior. And then 1721 01:30:17,240 --> 01:30:21,120 Speaker 2: you've got a nice compliment of players there. But Memphis 1722 01:30:21,800 --> 01:30:23,960 Speaker 2: may not get past the Lakers. But how good are 1723 01:30:24,000 --> 01:30:26,559 Speaker 2: the Lakers right where we start getting in all these 1724 01:30:26,600 --> 01:30:30,479 Speaker 2: secondary things. So a healthy and I use the air 1725 01:30:30,560 --> 01:30:32,320 Speaker 2: quotes as I'm sitting here in the studio. I know 1726 01:30:32,439 --> 01:30:35,920 Speaker 2: video comes next week, air quotes on it because Paul 1727 01:30:35,960 --> 01:30:39,760 Speaker 2: George isn't available, but thinking if Kawhi can fight through. 1728 01:30:40,680 --> 01:30:41,599 Speaker 2: But then it took two. 1729 01:30:41,520 --> 01:30:43,880 Speaker 3: Games, which he did. Yeah, which by the way, he 1730 01:30:44,080 --> 01:30:47,080 Speaker 3: did in game two because he suffered the injury in 1731 01:30:47,120 --> 01:30:47,519 Speaker 3: game one. 1732 01:30:47,880 --> 01:30:52,360 Speaker 2: Played brilliantly his two games and now done indefinitely. 1733 01:30:52,520 --> 01:30:55,800 Speaker 3: That that is it's even that fact, Mike, that just 1734 01:30:55,920 --> 01:30:59,160 Speaker 3: tells you that no matter what the Clippers do, they're 1735 01:30:59,240 --> 01:31:01,880 Speaker 3: kind of if you do, damned if you don't, because 1736 01:31:02,160 --> 01:31:04,000 Speaker 3: I don't think you can get a real sense of 1737 01:31:04,240 --> 01:31:07,400 Speaker 3: how you can handle him. You do this smart thing 1738 01:31:07,520 --> 01:31:08,880 Speaker 3: and say like we're not going to play him on 1739 01:31:09,000 --> 01:31:12,080 Speaker 3: back to backs, but really for now, you know, like 1740 01:31:12,320 --> 01:31:14,479 Speaker 3: in a regular season, for now, of where he is 1741 01:31:14,800 --> 01:31:17,519 Speaker 3: as a player, there's no guarantee that he wouldn't get 1742 01:31:17,560 --> 01:31:19,680 Speaker 3: hurt in the you know, first game of a back 1743 01:31:19,720 --> 01:31:22,000 Speaker 3: to back, or or that you're going to be able 1744 01:31:22,080 --> 01:31:24,720 Speaker 3: to save him in this playoff runs. That's just the 1745 01:31:24,840 --> 01:31:26,920 Speaker 3: reality of who he is and where his body is. 1746 01:31:26,960 --> 01:31:30,400 Speaker 2: At this point, right, it's the stipulating to all of it. Right, 1747 01:31:30,560 --> 01:31:33,280 Speaker 2: the guys can get hurt at any point. But to 1748 01:31:33,400 --> 01:31:36,320 Speaker 2: your point that you made before, like there's some guys 1749 01:31:36,400 --> 01:31:40,719 Speaker 2: between Oladipo, Kawhi, Leonard Paul, George, there's just an expectation 1750 01:31:40,840 --> 01:31:44,000 Speaker 2: you're missing time. Yeah, and now it's just can it 1751 01:31:44,120 --> 01:31:49,719 Speaker 2: be managed and can you dodge that proverbial bullet during 1752 01:31:49,800 --> 01:31:53,720 Speaker 2: the playoff run which is three months long? Right, it's 1753 01:31:53,800 --> 01:31:58,600 Speaker 2: half the length of the regular season to try to navigate. 1754 01:31:58,240 --> 01:32:03,080 Speaker 3: Through April to mid June, you know, two yeah, two plus. 1755 01:32:02,920 --> 01:32:05,160 Speaker 2: One two plus But by the time we do these 1756 01:32:05,200 --> 01:32:05,679 Speaker 2: things now. 1757 01:32:05,720 --> 01:32:07,800 Speaker 3: Well, you know, Chris Paul is a great example as well. 1758 01:32:07,960 --> 01:32:10,280 Speaker 3: Is how many of us read of the room here 1759 01:32:10,320 --> 01:32:13,439 Speaker 3: and I can't see Isaac. I well, next week read 1760 01:32:13,479 --> 01:32:15,439 Speaker 3: it the room. Raise your hand if you think Chris 1761 01:32:15,479 --> 01:32:17,879 Speaker 3: Paul will get hurt at some point in these NBA playoffs, 1762 01:32:18,760 --> 01:32:21,839 Speaker 3: all right, I see four hands, and I assume Isaac's 1763 01:32:21,920 --> 01:32:22,439 Speaker 3: is up as well. 1764 01:32:22,520 --> 01:32:23,760 Speaker 2: Yeah, he might have both of them up. 1765 01:32:23,960 --> 01:32:27,360 Speaker 3: Yeah, And that's just because of who Chris Paul is 1766 01:32:27,400 --> 01:32:29,840 Speaker 3: and people have said it, and it's you know, if 1767 01:32:29,880 --> 01:32:32,080 Speaker 3: you're the Phoenix Suns and aren't you going to try 1768 01:32:32,080 --> 01:32:33,559 Speaker 3: to figure out a plan to make sure that Chris 1769 01:32:33,600 --> 01:32:36,000 Speaker 3: Paul stays healthy? Well, what can you do? Well? 1770 01:32:36,080 --> 01:32:38,160 Speaker 2: But it's like you did it in Philadelphia, a lot 1771 01:32:38,200 --> 01:32:41,560 Speaker 2: of great expectations. Man Ethan could speak to this. I 1772 01:32:41,640 --> 01:32:44,960 Speaker 2: mean it's the Hey, they look great on paper. We've 1773 01:32:45,040 --> 01:32:48,240 Speaker 2: seen this before. Em Beads are now injured. 1774 01:32:48,800 --> 01:32:50,599 Speaker 3: Yes, yes, right. 1775 01:32:50,680 --> 01:32:52,439 Speaker 2: I tried to be a smart ass and I went 1776 01:32:52,520 --> 01:32:55,800 Speaker 2: to the MG to baseball thing because I thought he 1777 01:32:55,800 --> 01:32:58,240 Speaker 2: should have been kicked out so instead of suspending, and 1778 01:32:58,360 --> 01:33:02,000 Speaker 2: he misses it, and I set it firmly and firmly 1779 01:33:02,160 --> 01:33:05,880 Speaker 2: in cheek. But just the idea of now he's out indefinitely. 1780 01:33:06,680 --> 01:33:10,439 Speaker 3: Yeah, I just I don't know how you plan, if 1781 01:33:10,479 --> 01:33:13,559 Speaker 3: you're the Clippers, for what to do with Kawhi Leonard, 1782 01:33:13,600 --> 01:33:17,720 Speaker 3: because this would have happened if he would have set 1783 01:33:17,760 --> 01:33:19,400 Speaker 3: out ten more regular season games. 1784 01:33:19,680 --> 01:33:22,080 Speaker 2: We need to have another conversation about Kawhi Leonard a 1785 01:33:22,080 --> 01:33:25,200 Speaker 2: little later in the program because there was a narrative 1786 01:33:25,240 --> 01:33:29,599 Speaker 2: that started to gain some traction and some steam that well, 1787 01:33:29,640 --> 01:33:32,240 Speaker 2: we just need to take a nice giant fire host 1788 01:33:32,360 --> 01:33:34,439 Speaker 2: to as we go through.

If I'm in 1804 01:34:19,640 --> 01:34:23,040 Speaker 2: the left turn lane, I'm turning into that first lane 1805 01:34:23,120 --> 01:34:26,040 Speaker 2: on what's supposed to be my side. And so it 1806 01:34:26,479 --> 01:34:29,519 Speaker 2: sometimes feels weird because, let's face it, we're all lazy 1807 01:34:29,960 --> 01:34:33,200 Speaker 2: and you do the wide turn and whatever.

I listened to the Broadway channel 1818 01:35:04,479 --> 01:35:08,280 Speaker 2: a lot, Dan, I am a song. I have a 1819 01:35:08,360 --> 01:35:10,880 Speaker 2: song in my soul. We did get a note on 1820 01:35:11,000 --> 01:35:13,479 Speaker 2: the Kershaw thing because we roped him into the discussion, 1821 01:35:13,600 --> 01:35:19,320 Speaker 2: so Pertito Danny writes in talking about Clayton Kershaw talking 1822 01:35:19,320 --> 01:35:22,760 Speaker 2: about it being a cold weather day in Minnesota when 1823 01:35:22,840 --> 01:35:25,400 Speaker 2: that perfect game was stopped and he was taken out 1824 01:35:25,439 --> 01:35:30,400 Speaker 2: of the game and hadn't had his normal spring training whatever. 1825 01:35:30,479 --> 01:35:32,920 Speaker 2: I'm like, you know, my mom was, and I told 1826 01:35:32,920 --> 01:35:35,280 Speaker 2: you this off Aaron. For those that are longtime listeners, 1827 01:35:35,320 --> 01:35:37,439 Speaker 2: you've heard this, but maybe you've got someone in your 1828 01:35:37,479 --> 01:35:40,000 Speaker 2: life that does this. You'll save it for good kind 1829 01:35:40,040 --> 01:35:43,479 Speaker 2: of thing. Hey, we bought you this nice blouse. Hey, 1830 01:35:43,600 --> 01:35:46,519 Speaker 2: here's a cool coat. You know winter's coming, it'll it'll 1831 01:35:46,600 --> 01:35:49,040 Speaker 2: cover your butt, keep you warm when you're out, you know, 1832 01:35:49,200 --> 01:35:52,920 Speaker 2: out and about and walking. All of those things that 1833 01:35:53,080 --> 01:35:55,040 Speaker 2: never got used. Yea, they ended up in the back 1834 01:35:55,040 --> 01:35:57,439 Speaker 2: of the closet. Hey we bought you this cool We 1835 01:35:57,760 --> 01:36:01,880 Speaker 2: found this silverware set. No, it's it's in a trunk. 1836 01:36:02,240 --> 01:36:06,280 Speaker 2: Or hey, here's here's a cool plates or gadget for 1837 01:36:06,320 --> 01:36:08,160 Speaker 2: the kitchen. Nah, I got no use for it. It 1838 01:36:08,560 --> 01:36:10,960 Speaker 2: ends up and save it for good, and good never comes. 1839 01:36:11,280 --> 01:36:14,200 Speaker 2: Those guests never come for dinner. You never have cause 1840 01:36:14,280 --> 01:36:17,280 Speaker 2: to make that recipe. Whatever. Clayton Kershaw was on the 1841 01:36:17,360 --> 01:36:19,559 Speaker 2: mound and he was good enough to pitch that day 1842 01:36:20,040 --> 01:36:23,040 Speaker 2: to say that I can't go another fifteen or twenty pitches. 1843 01:36:23,840 --> 01:36:26,479 Speaker 2: That just fails me. So the logic fails me because 1844 01:36:26,479 --> 01:36:28,840 Speaker 2: if he's gonna get hurt going back to the Kawhi Leonard, 1845 01:36:29,160 --> 01:36:31,080 Speaker 2: then why just put him in bubble wrap. 1846 01:36:31,479 --> 01:36:36,400 Speaker 3: I'm sorry, we got the wrong al Central Upper Midwest 1847 01:36:36,760 --> 01:36:40,800 Speaker 3: outdoor team that wears Navy wrong. I said, yeah, I 1848 01:36:40,840 --> 01:36:42,960 Speaker 3: said tigers. Who's the Twins is. 1849 01:36:43,120 --> 01:36:44,400 Speaker 2: A Shakiro Berner account. 1850 01:36:44,960 --> 01:36:49,960 Speaker 3: It doesn't matter. It's the same point of you're in 1851 01:36:50,160 --> 01:36:54,080 Speaker 3: that situation, and Dave Roberts goes and says like, we 1852 01:36:54,200 --> 01:36:57,360 Speaker 3: need to save Kershaw for later on in the season. Well, 1853 01:36:58,000 --> 01:37:00,800 Speaker 3: and this is we're talking about a topic a year ago, 1854 01:37:00,840 --> 01:37:04,000 Speaker 3: but it relates to Kawhi Leonard right now. Well, if 1855 01:37:04,080 --> 01:37:07,439 Speaker 3: Clayton Kershaw is likely to get hurt later on in 1856 01:37:07,520 --> 01:37:10,840 Speaker 3: the season, then what's the point of saving him for 1857 01:37:10,920 --> 01:37:15,120 Speaker 3: that moment of history, which would be you know, a 1858 01:37:15,280 --> 01:37:18,599 Speaker 3: quite a spectacle. And how do you know that something 1859 01:37:18,720 --> 01:37:23,000 Speaker 3: is going to happen Mike from the eightieth pitch or 1860 01:37:23,040 --> 01:37:26,719 Speaker 3: the eighty second pitch. And that's the point about Kawhi Leonard. 1861 01:37:26,960 --> 01:37:31,160 Speaker 3: Kawhi Leonard is not hurt because of load management. That 1862 01:37:31,320 --> 01:37:33,920 Speaker 3: is not why he's hurt. Kawhi Leonard is hurt because 1863 01:37:33,960 --> 01:37:36,720 Speaker 3: he's injury prone. This is where he is. This is 1864 01:37:37,080 --> 01:37:39,960 Speaker 3: this has been the basically the second half of his 1865 01:37:40,320 --> 01:37:45,960 Speaker 3: NBA career has been somewhat shrouded in injury factors, whether 1866 01:37:46,000 --> 01:37:49,800 Speaker 3: it be the leaving of San Antonio was able to 1867 01:37:49,880 --> 01:37:53,240 Speaker 3: be healthy for the Raptors, but since then it's been 1868 01:37:53,720 --> 01:37:56,920 Speaker 3: more and more and it hasn't gotten better. And so 1869 01:37:57,160 --> 01:37:59,880 Speaker 3: try as you will to pick the spots. But then 1870 01:38:00,600 --> 01:38:02,960 Speaker 3: it's a guessing game. And that's why I say it 1871 01:38:03,040 --> 01:38:07,040 Speaker 3: doesn't matter with load management, because you're just guessing and 1872 01:38:07,280 --> 01:38:10,560 Speaker 3: hoping that he doesn't get hurt in the games that 1873 01:38:10,640 --> 01:38:13,800 Speaker 3: he actually plays, and it's and guess what, He's probably 1874 01:38:13,840 --> 01:38:15,960 Speaker 3: going to get hurt at some point. So whatever game 1875 01:38:16,000 --> 01:38:19,240 Speaker 3: you actually do play him in, he is probably going 1876 01:38:19,320 --> 01:38:21,200 Speaker 3: to get hurt. And he can, you know, fight through 1877 01:38:21,240 --> 01:38:23,439 Speaker 3: the injury like he did through Game two, but it 1878 01:38:23,560 --> 01:38:25,719 Speaker 3: popped up and now he's missed the last two games 1879 01:38:25,760 --> 01:38:28,080 Speaker 3: and the Clippers are on the verge of being housted 1880 01:38:28,120 --> 01:38:29,639 Speaker 3: from the postseason to that point. 1881 01:38:29,760 --> 01:38:32,320 Speaker 2: Thanks for listening and chiming in on Twitter. We appreciate 1882 01:38:32,400 --> 01:38:33,800 Speaker 2: the commentary at day Byron. 1883 01:38:33,840 --> 01:38:37,559 Speaker 3: A great name that for the Twitter handle that is Danny. 1884 01:38:37,680 --> 01:38:38,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, nicely done. 1885 01:38:39,080 --> 01:38:39,519 Speaker 3: I like it. 1886 01:38:40,240 --> 01:38:41,479 Speaker 2: He's part of your. 1887 01:38:41,840 --> 01:38:43,240 Speaker 3: The Danny for a long time. 1888 01:38:43,880 --> 01:38:46,599 Speaker 2: Well, I may try it later, see if I get 1889 01:38:46,640 --> 01:38:49,400 Speaker 2: a Jim Everett reaction on you.

Hey, anybody else 1893 01:38:59,680 --> 01:39:02,760 Speaker 2: missing time due to injury or punching anybody in the 1894 01:39:03,040 --> 01:39:04,000 Speaker 2: nether regions today. 1895 01:39:04,040 --> 01:39:08,559 Speaker 5: Ilo not yet, but we're constantly refreshing to see if 1896 01:39:08,680 --> 01:39:13,479 Speaker 5: any discipline slash suspensions are being ejected for that very thing. 1897 01:39:13,600 --> 01:39:16,479 Speaker 5: What happened in Game three of the NBA Playoffs on 1898 01:39:16,680 --> 01:39:19,479 Speaker 5: Saturday night that saw the Los Angeles Lakers defeat the 1899 01:39:19,520 --> 01:39:21,760 Speaker 5: Memphis Grizzlies won eleven to one oh one for a 1900 01:39:21,840 --> 01:39:23,840 Speaker 5: two games to one lead. The Lakers led after the 1901 01:39:23,880 --> 01:39:28,280 Speaker 5: first quarter thirty five to nine. Anthony Davis had thirty 1902 01:39:28,320 --> 01:39:32,280 Speaker 5: one points seventeen rebounds. Lebron James twenty five points, nine rebounds, 1903 01:39:32,400 --> 01:39:35,840 Speaker 5: five assists. John Moran of Memphis scored forty five points 1904 01:39:35,880 --> 01:39:38,559 Speaker 5: on the night, twenty four of them in the fourth quarter, 1905 01:39:38,920 --> 01:39:43,759 Speaker 5: including twenty two consecutive Memphis points at one point. Meanwhile, 1906 01:39:43,800 --> 01:39:47,360 Speaker 5: the Grizzlies Dylan Brooks ejected for committing a flagrant foul 1907 01:39:47,439 --> 01:39:50,680 Speaker 5: penalty two on Lebron James in the third quarter. With 1908 01:39:50,800 --> 01:39:53,439 Speaker 5: that in mind, let's revisit what Brooks had to say 1909 01:39:53,479 --> 01:39:56,839 Speaker 5: about Lebron after Game two of the series. 1910 01:39:57,080 --> 01:40:03,280 Speaker 4: I care he's old pulped bears. I don't respect no 1911 01:40:03,360 --> 01:40:04,960 Speaker 4: one until they come and. 1912 01:40:05,040 --> 01:40:08,960 Speaker 5: Give me forty Well after Game three, Brooks followed that 1913 01:40:09,120 --> 01:40:13,080 Speaker 5: up by declining to speak with reporters. So let's let 1914 01:40:13,200 --> 01:40:14,720 Speaker 5: Lebron himself sort it out. 1915 01:40:14,880 --> 01:40:17,439 Speaker 6: I've been doing it too long. I'm making enough statements. 1916 01:40:18,160 --> 01:40:18,280 Speaker 2: You know. 1917 01:40:18,400 --> 01:40:21,320 Speaker 6: We had an opportunity to come home and play well 1918 01:40:21,320 --> 01:40:22,840 Speaker 6: on our home flow and we did that, you know, 1919 01:40:23,000 --> 01:40:24,559 Speaker 6: So no statements made. 1920 01:40:24,720 --> 01:40:24,880 Speaker 7: You know. 1921 01:40:25,040 --> 01:40:27,519 Speaker 6: We just want to play well and we gotta win, 1922 01:40:27,720 --> 01:40:29,080 Speaker 6: and we want to try to do that in Game 1923 01:40:29,120 --> 01:40:29,599 Speaker 6: four as well. 1924 01:40:29,720 --> 01:40:31,919 Speaker 3: But yeah, I don't need to make stamens. 1925 01:40:32,840 --> 01:40:36,840 Speaker 5: Today's action tips off at one pm Eastern Time with 1926 01:40:37,000 --> 01:40:39,880 Speaker 5: Game four between the New York Knicks and Cleveland Cavaliers 1927 01:40:39,920 --> 01:40:41,960 Speaker 5: from the Garden.

In the post game, 1938 01:41:12,000 --> 01:41:14,559 Speaker 2: the person fielding the questions and calling on the reporters 1939 01:41:14,840 --> 01:41:17,680 Speaker 2: finally had to do the does somebody actually have any basketball? 1940 01:41:18,960 --> 01:41:21,560 Speaker 2: Dylan Brooks instead of trash talk. It was nothing but 1941 01:41:21,680 --> 01:41:23,640 Speaker 2: Dylan Brooks. He said, you know, I'm used to this 1942 01:41:23,760 --> 01:41:27,559 Speaker 2: certain individuals. Yeah, it's not my first rodeo. I've been 1943 01:41:27,600 --> 01:41:28,080 Speaker 2: here before. 1944 01:41:28,200 --> 01:41:32,439 Speaker 3: I'll say this. For as much as Dylan Brooks didn't 1945 01:41:32,439 --> 01:41:35,800 Speaker 3: take the pressure off of anybody from Memphis because they 1946 01:41:35,920 --> 01:41:39,160 Speaker 3: just seemed not ready to play, Lebron can handle that. 1947 01:41:39,320 --> 01:41:42,519 Speaker 3: And I think Dylan Brooks was trying to trying to 1948 01:41:43,080 --> 01:41:45,960 Speaker 3: urge and nudge Lebron into a one man show sort 1949 01:41:46,000 --> 01:41:49,160 Speaker 3: of thing, which is probably the only chance that the 1950 01:41:49,240 --> 01:41:51,320 Speaker 3: Grizzlies would have had to have won Game three is 1951 01:41:51,479 --> 01:41:54,280 Speaker 3: if Lebron tried to just take the game over himself. 1952 01:41:55,240 --> 01:41:59,080 Speaker 3: And Lebron did not take the bait, and Lebron played 1953 01:41:59,120 --> 01:42:02,240 Speaker 3: this game with everyone involved, and that's why the Lakers 1954 01:42:02,240 --> 01:42:04,400 Speaker 3: are up to one. He didn't put forty on him, 1955 01:42:04,439 --> 01:42:05,639 Speaker 3: You just put twenty five on him. 1956 01:42:05,760 --> 01:42:09,960 Speaker 2: Pummeled me mercilessly, even though it's a ten point final. 1957 01:42:11,520 --> 01:42:13,360 Speaker 2: It did not play as such over the course of 1958 01:42:13,400 --> 01:42:15,640 Speaker 2: the night. Great heroics by John Morant. That's gonna be 1959 01:42:15,640 --> 01:42:18,599 Speaker 2: one of the great stories because it's the hey, look 1960 01:42:18,640 --> 01:42:22,760 Speaker 2: he can score in bunches and down distance and all 1961 01:42:22,800 --> 01:42:24,759 Speaker 2: of that kind of stuff. In terms of game management, 1962 01:42:25,040 --> 01:42:28,680 Speaker 2: Now you're Seattle Seahawks. One of the curious pieces of 1963 01:42:28,840 --> 01:42:31,960 Speaker 2: the early draft puzzle. Here, Dan with that number five pick. 1964 01:42:32,000 --> 01:42:34,960 Speaker 2: They've got sitting there. A great season from Gino Smith. 1965 01:42:35,040 --> 01:42:38,320 Speaker 2: He's back in the fold. You still have Metcalf and Locket, 1966 01:42:39,040 --> 01:42:43,280 Speaker 2: Kenneth Walker the third acquitted himself quite nicely to give 1967 01:42:43,360 --> 01:42:47,960 Speaker 2: you the run game. Richardson was a guy that was 1968 01:42:48,160 --> 01:42:51,599 Speaker 2: kind of getting rumored for a while that's died down. 1969 01:42:52,000 --> 01:42:53,960 Speaker 2: What do you think Pete Carroll and John Snodder do here? 1970 01:42:54,240 --> 01:42:58,680 Speaker 3: I I think that if Anthony Richardson was available, that 1971 01:42:58,920 --> 01:43:03,000 Speaker 3: they would they would seriously consider taking him. But I 1972 01:43:03,040 --> 01:43:07,240 Speaker 3: think that there's a worst case scenario situation for the Seahawks, 1973 01:43:07,880 --> 01:43:10,360 Speaker 3: and that's Young going number one, which we think is 1974 01:43:10,400 --> 01:43:14,120 Speaker 3: going to happen Will Anderson two to the Texans. This 1975 01:43:14,280 --> 01:43:17,559 Speaker 3: is again worst case scenario. Someone trades up for Anthony 1976 01:43:17,640 --> 01:43:20,639 Speaker 3: Richardson at three and then the Colts take CJ. Stroud 1977 01:43:20,680 --> 01:43:25,920 Speaker 3: at four, so that leaves a group of players. Jalen 1978 01:43:26,000 --> 01:43:29,720 Speaker 3: Carter would seem like a natural fit because of how 1979 01:43:29,840 --> 01:43:32,240 Speaker 3: much the Seahawks need help along the defensive front. 1980 01:43:32,160 --> 01:43:34,120 Speaker 2: And a guy that as we get closer to the 1981 01:43:34,240 --> 01:43:37,360 Speaker 2: draft now, there are off field concerns, but it seems 1982 01:43:37,479 --> 01:43:40,720 Speaker 2: like some of those have been at least lessened a bit. 1983 01:43:40,840 --> 01:43:43,840 Speaker 2: The Lions there was a quote about them after having 1984 01:43:43,960 --> 01:43:46,880 Speaker 2: met with Carter and maybe feeling a little better with 1985 01:43:47,040 --> 01:43:49,240 Speaker 2: his positioning and where he is and who he is. 1986 01:43:49,600 --> 01:43:53,280 Speaker 2: Obviously there was some concern about his conditioning during his 1987 01:43:53,439 --> 01:43:56,880 Speaker 2: pro day, but what we've seen on the field, the 1988 01:43:56,960 --> 01:43:59,880 Speaker 2: game tape speech for itself. Now Seattle also has the 1989 01:44:00,120 --> 01:44:02,920 Speaker 2: twentieth pick in the first round as we sit here 1990 01:44:02,960 --> 01:44:03,639 Speaker 2: on Sunday morning. 1991 01:44:03,760 --> 01:44:07,200 Speaker 3: Yeah, and so I don't know how much twenty plays 1992 01:44:07,240 --> 01:44:10,639 Speaker 3: into it, Mike, but I do think that the Jalen 1993 01:44:10,760 --> 01:44:15,240 Speaker 3: Carter off season of what has transpired does play. The 1994 01:44:15,320 --> 01:44:20,400 Speaker 3: Seahawks at times have made, you know, interesting picks with 1995 01:44:20,560 --> 01:44:23,880 Speaker 3: off field issues. Frank Clark when he came in from 1996 01:44:24,000 --> 01:44:27,519 Speaker 3: Michigan is a notable and Frank Clark had a good 1997 01:44:27,880 --> 01:44:30,519 Speaker 3: career with the Seahawks. And then was traded to the Chiefs. 1998 01:44:30,600 --> 01:44:32,840 Speaker 3: But I think that they're moving away from that. So 1999 01:44:33,240 --> 01:44:35,920 Speaker 3: if Jalen Carter, the obvious pick, isn't there, do they 2000 01:44:35,960 --> 01:44:38,120 Speaker 3: go Will Levis? Well, I don't don't. I don't really 2001 01:44:38,200 --> 01:44:40,840 Speaker 3: think that that's I don't think that they're in a 2002 01:44:40,960 --> 01:44:45,599 Speaker 3: dire situation to have a quarterback. And maybe Will Levis 2003 01:44:45,680 --> 01:44:48,200 Speaker 3: would you know, fill a spot for them over the 2004 01:44:48,240 --> 01:44:50,240 Speaker 3: next decade, But I don't. I don't think they're ready 2005 01:44:50,320 --> 01:44:55,519 Speaker 3: to do that with Will Levis trade down, which John 2006 01:44:55,560 --> 01:45:00,040 Speaker 3: Schneiders loves to trade, always get more picks. But he 2007 01:45:00,040 --> 01:45:02,680 Speaker 3: also said something this week, I believe he said it 2008 01:45:02,760 --> 01:45:05,600 Speaker 3: on Seattle Radio of they're kind of now just to 2009 01:45:05,720 --> 01:45:08,479 Speaker 3: the case of they made us draft the best player, 2010 01:45:09,880 --> 01:45:12,000 Speaker 3: best player out there, and I think that fits everything 2011 01:45:12,080 --> 01:45:15,799 Speaker 3: of off field and on the field, and I just wonder, 2012 01:45:17,160 --> 01:45:20,160 Speaker 3: this is crazy, but could be Jeon Robinson be the 2013 01:45:20,240 --> 01:45:22,599 Speaker 3: best player And you just mentioned Kenneth Walker the third 2014 01:45:23,280 --> 01:45:26,680 Speaker 3: But if you had a stud running back that is 2015 01:45:27,760 --> 01:45:29,920 Speaker 3: like Robinson, who I don't think there's been a running 2016 01:45:29,960 --> 01:45:32,400 Speaker 3: back mic that has gotten the hype of Robinson's and 2017 01:45:32,520 --> 01:45:36,160 Speaker 3: Saquon was in the draft to have that running back 2018 01:45:36,240 --> 01:45:39,920 Speaker 3: to be available. I know it sounds really really crazy 2019 01:45:40,000 --> 01:45:42,439 Speaker 3: when they have Kenneth Walker and he's likely going to 2020 01:45:42,439 --> 01:45:45,200 Speaker 3: be a first round pick in so many fantasy drafts, 2021 01:45:45,200 --> 01:45:47,120 Speaker 3: and I know you're high on him, but if you're 2022 01:45:47,160 --> 01:45:49,240 Speaker 3: thinking about taking a running back in the first round, 2023 01:45:49,280 --> 01:45:51,320 Speaker 3: that there's so many different things, and then you have 2024 01:45:51,439 --> 01:45:53,960 Speaker 3: him for the ability to maybe have him on a 2025 01:45:54,040 --> 01:45:57,760 Speaker 3: five year deal if he ends up panning out to 2026 01:45:57,840 --> 01:46:00,479 Speaker 3: who he is. I don't think it's out of the 2027 01:46:00,520 --> 01:46:03,559 Speaker 3: realmel possibility that they could pick Beejeon Robinson. 2028 01:46:04,160 --> 01:46:06,400 Speaker 2: And see that's been the interesting thing, right because if 2029 01:46:06,439 --> 01:46:10,000 Speaker 2: you go and peruse some of the mock drafts, just 2030 01:46:10,200 --> 01:46:13,200 Speaker 2: on principle, I think because he has a running back tag, 2031 01:46:13,920 --> 01:46:16,880 Speaker 2: nobody wants to talk about Robinson before we get to 2032 01:46:16,920 --> 01:46:22,000 Speaker 2: pick twenty or later, which I don't think is the 2033 01:46:22,120 --> 01:46:27,000 Speaker 2: correct Obviously, I have not built a team except in 2034 01:46:27,120 --> 01:46:29,640 Speaker 2: my Fantasy World couple of titles this year, thank you 2035 01:46:29,800 --> 01:46:32,960 Speaker 2: very much. But the idea of if I can get 2036 01:46:32,960 --> 01:46:35,799 Speaker 2: a guy who's supposed to be this transformative at the position, 2037 01:46:36,439 --> 01:46:39,120 Speaker 2: and in Seattle, you know a thing about guys who 2038 01:46:39,439 --> 01:46:42,040 Speaker 2: you pick up and who can carry you a very 2039 01:46:42,120 --> 01:46:45,800 Speaker 2: long way, right, Marshaw Lynch was great as a member 2040 01:46:45,840 --> 01:46:49,600 Speaker 2: of the Buffalo Bills. He hit another level once he 2041 01:46:49,680 --> 01:46:52,640 Speaker 2: showed up in Seattle and became a legend of the 2042 01:46:52,720 --> 01:46:55,200 Speaker 2: game and one of the best. Jamir gives a guy 2043 01:46:55,280 --> 01:46:57,960 Speaker 2: getting some run as well. Sure, late as we get 2044 01:46:58,000 --> 01:47:00,680 Speaker 2: towards the draft, right, we got to have somebody, some 2045 01:47:00,920 --> 01:47:03,439 Speaker 2: names that gravitate towards things. So you now have a 2046 01:47:03,520 --> 01:47:07,280 Speaker 2: two running back discussion for at least the back end 2047 01:47:07,360 --> 01:47:09,120 Speaker 2: of the first round, if not perhaps high. 2048 01:47:09,160 --> 01:47:12,160 Speaker 3: I've even seen some Jumior Gibbs to the Seahawks at twenty, 2049 01:47:12,240 --> 01:47:15,679 Speaker 3: which then tells me then, well then b John Robinson 2050 01:47:16,320 --> 01:47:18,439 Speaker 3: would be gone. Yeah, it would be gone, but also 2051 01:47:18,479 --> 01:47:21,240 Speaker 3: would be in play for them at five, or if 2052 01:47:21,280 --> 01:47:23,040 Speaker 3: there was someone that wanted to trade up, say to 2053 01:47:23,080 --> 01:47:25,680 Speaker 3: get Will Levis, Like like, okay, Levis is there, He's 2054 01:47:25,680 --> 01:47:27,559 Speaker 3: the last quarterback. We got to go up and get them. 2055 01:47:28,479 --> 01:47:30,519 Speaker 3: That's where I see it. The CX also just not 2056 01:47:30,680 --> 01:47:34,000 Speaker 3: to get all seahawkey ish, but Jake Hayner. Same for 2057 01:47:34,120 --> 01:47:37,680 Speaker 3: Fresno State. It's been hot lately, especially off of the 2058 01:47:38,240 --> 01:47:41,599 Speaker 3: S two scores. He started his career at Washington, then 2059 01:47:41,640 --> 01:47:43,960 Speaker 3: transferred to Fresno State. I think there could be some 2060 01:47:44,080 --> 01:47:47,200 Speaker 3: familiarity with someone like that, and we know how much 2061 01:47:47,880 --> 01:47:50,920 Speaker 3: you know, we know where the franchise went when they 2062 01:47:51,000 --> 01:47:54,160 Speaker 3: took Russell Wilson in the third round, you know, more 2063 01:47:54,240 --> 01:47:57,519 Speaker 3: than a decade ago. I think that when you're talking 2064 01:47:57,560 --> 01:47:59,679 Speaker 3: about teams, I think that actually could be a play 2065 01:47:59,720 --> 01:48:02,040 Speaker 3: for US. Seattle more so than even will Lovis. 2066 01:48:01,920 --> 01:48:04,280 Speaker 2: Just excited to see them continue down the path in 2067 01:48:04,400 --> 01:48:08,000 Speaker 2: the post Russell era where they got back to brass tacks. 2068 01:48:08,200 --> 01:48:09,240 Speaker 3: Yes, right, the. 2069 01:48:09,720 --> 01:48:11,720 Speaker 2: Building that they did, and they went away and got 2070 01:48:11,720 --> 01:48:14,479 Speaker 2: a little wayward to where their jobs were kind of 2071 01:48:14,600 --> 01:48:17,840 Speaker 2: questioned a little bit, and then Russell goes away and 2072 01:48:17,920 --> 01:48:20,320 Speaker 2: now it's back to basics and you saw the draft 2073 01:48:20,360 --> 01:48:21,760 Speaker 2: and the success you had a year ago. 2074 01:48:22,000 --> 01:48:25,880 Speaker 3: Jalen Carter's do such an obvious pick for their needs, 2075 01:48:26,240 --> 01:48:29,000 Speaker 3: his talent and the you know of what he could do. 2076 01:48:29,160 --> 01:48:34,040 Speaker 3: But I don't know. I just rarely when everybody is 2077 01:48:34,080 --> 01:48:36,680 Speaker 3: saying something, Mike, does it actually turn out like that? 2078 01:48:37,520 --> 01:48:40,040 Speaker 2: One d percent, one hundred percent.

To me, is 2133 01:51:31,840 --> 01:51:35,639 Speaker 3: actually the most intriguing series of any of the first round, 2134 01:51:35,720 --> 01:51:38,960 Speaker 3: even more than Lakers Grizzlies or Sons Clippers, even if 2135 01:51:39,040 --> 01:51:40,320 Speaker 3: Kawhi was healthy. 2136 01:51:40,479 --> 01:51:42,320 Speaker 2: So you have that the you know, and so you 2137 01:51:42,520 --> 01:51:43,679 Speaker 2: kick your own bucks. 2138 01:51:43,920 --> 01:51:47,160 Speaker 3: Yeah, I did well. They shouldn't be a series. That's 2139 01:51:47,240 --> 01:51:49,439 Speaker 3: part of the that's part of the problem. But I 2140 01:51:49,479 --> 01:51:52,639 Speaker 3: will say this like a in a season where again 2141 01:51:52,720 --> 01:51:54,320 Speaker 3: I still think Boston's the best team and I think 2142 01:51:54,320 --> 01:51:56,519 Speaker 3: Boston's gonna win the NBA title. It's not it's not 2143 01:51:56,640 --> 01:52:00,360 Speaker 3: a hot take or anything, but the first rock of 2144 01:52:00,479 --> 01:52:03,720 Speaker 3: the NBA playoffs has provided value where I think in 2145 01:52:03,880 --> 01:52:06,280 Speaker 3: other years you're just kind of waiting for the conference 2146 01:52:06,320 --> 01:52:09,320 Speaker 3: finals or the conference semi finals to start. You had 2147 01:52:09,400 --> 01:52:11,840 Speaker 3: so many loaded first round matchups here with so many 2148 01:52:11,880 --> 01:52:14,400 Speaker 3: different things going on that it's been a really good 2149 01:52:14,520 --> 01:52:17,799 Speaker 3: first week of the NBA Playoffs in terms of always 2150 01:52:17,920 --> 01:52:20,360 Speaker 3: having something to at least want to tune in, whether 2151 01:52:20,479 --> 01:52:24,639 Speaker 3: it be a game or some other drama that's going 2152 01:52:24,720 --> 01:52:25,439 Speaker 3: on within the game. 2153 01:52:25,560 --> 01:52:28,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, the studio show is giving us plenty of commentary 2154 01:52:28,200 --> 01:52:32,320 Speaker 2: on said nonsense and scenarios within the games that then 2155 01:52:32,920 --> 01:52:36,479 Speaker 2: translate to social media hits. One thing that we kept 2156 01:52:36,520 --> 01:52:39,599 Speaker 2: our eye on this week. And you know, spring games, 2157 01:52:39,680 --> 01:52:42,360 Speaker 2: depending on what your alma mater is, what college team 2158 01:52:43,160 --> 01:52:46,280 Speaker 2: you have an affinity for, they have different levels of 2159 01:52:46,479 --> 01:52:50,439 Speaker 2: involvement and engagement. Right Northwestern has theirs pay attention a 2160 01:52:50,479 --> 01:52:53,120 Speaker 2: little bit, but it's not must see viewing on the 2161 01:52:53,200 --> 01:52:57,200 Speaker 2: Big ten network or traveling home to go check it 2162 01:52:57,280 --> 01:53:01,400 Speaker 2: all out. Whatever it's it's important but has its place 2163 01:53:01,760 --> 01:53:06,240 Speaker 2: for Colorado trying to rise up from the ashes. Dion 2164 01:53:06,360 --> 01:53:11,639 Speaker 2: Sanders fully loaded with his cowboy hat and forty five 2165 01:53:11,960 --> 01:53:15,560 Speaker 2: thousand people. Now Ralphie wasn't able to run because the 2166 01:53:16,200 --> 01:53:20,559 Speaker 2: weather sore joints and other things, but forty five thousand 2167 01:53:20,720 --> 01:53:25,559 Speaker 2: strong to watch a workout here in late April, that's 2168 01:53:26,360 --> 01:53:28,920 Speaker 2: you want to talk about. Times Turner. You got merchandise, 2169 01:53:29,200 --> 01:53:34,320 Speaker 2: trucks of prime merchandise with the logos and everything else 2170 01:53:34,640 --> 01:53:38,400 Speaker 2: that you've got a different feel, that rock star element. 2171 01:53:38,720 --> 01:53:40,560 Speaker 2: You know, we talk about it here, we joke about it. 2172 01:53:40,720 --> 01:53:43,439 Speaker 2: I think a little bit with the coaches for USC 2173 01:53:43,800 --> 01:53:46,439 Speaker 2: and some of these other Right here's Cliff Kingsbury added 2174 01:53:46,520 --> 01:53:50,200 Speaker 2: to the staff and immediately the viral videos from what 2175 01:53:50,320 --> 01:53:54,400 Speaker 2: he was doing, his COVID draft from that swanky pad 2176 01:53:54,520 --> 01:53:57,080 Speaker 2: and all that started making the rounds. But like this 2177 01:53:57,320 --> 01:54:00,519 Speaker 2: is rock star on a whole other level. It comes 2178 01:54:00,560 --> 01:54:01,639 Speaker 2: to a coaching change. 2179 01:54:01,680 --> 01:54:04,479 Speaker 3: It's the place to be right, that's all that you 2180 01:54:04,920 --> 01:54:09,120 Speaker 3: strive to be. And that's where Boulder, Colorado is because 2181 01:54:09,160 --> 01:54:12,920 Speaker 3: of Deon Sanders, and it's it's the new way of 2182 01:54:13,560 --> 01:54:15,800 Speaker 3: I don't think that there's going first of all, because 2183 01:54:15,800 --> 01:54:21,040 Speaker 3: there's only one Deon Sanders. This doesn't work with I 2184 01:54:21,600 --> 01:54:26,439 Speaker 3: think anyone else to the way that it has right now. 2185 01:54:27,680 --> 01:54:31,320 Speaker 3: Also to the fact of Deon Sanders having success. Part 2186 01:54:31,360 --> 01:54:33,840 Speaker 3: of that success is being able to bring in better 2187 01:54:34,000 --> 01:54:37,360 Speaker 3: players and have them play for your team. That's all 2188 01:54:37,400 --> 01:54:40,440 Speaker 3: you want. That's all college football is, whether Deon Sanders 2189 01:54:40,760 --> 01:54:44,160 Speaker 3: the coach or or it's uh you know, it's Nick 2190 01:54:44,240 --> 01:54:48,600 Speaker 3: Saban or it's you know, gosh, you go through the 2191 01:54:48,760 --> 01:54:52,720 Speaker 3: history of Larry Koker, Jimmy Johnson, all the national championships 2192 01:54:52,760 --> 01:54:56,240 Speaker 3: won at Miami. Better players, right Like, That's that's how 2193 01:54:56,280 --> 01:54:59,440 Speaker 3: you win when your team in college football has better 2194 01:54:59,480 --> 01:55:01,760 Speaker 3: players than the other. And that's what Colorado is doing. 2195 01:55:01,800 --> 01:55:04,080 Speaker 3: And it's not meant to be a disset. Diana's actually 2196 01:55:04,080 --> 01:55:05,920 Speaker 3: a tip of the captive Dion because that's what he 2197 01:55:06,040 --> 01:55:08,520 Speaker 3: can do and he can bring there in an amazing scene. 2198 01:55:08,560 --> 01:55:11,240 Speaker 3: That video that someone had of the twenty twenty two 2199 01:55:11,320 --> 01:55:13,280 Speaker 3: compared to twenty twenty three amazing. 2200 01:55:13,960 --> 01:55:17,480 Speaker 2: It's a zero interest, sporadic attendance. Here's a guy in 2201 01:55:17,640 --> 01:55:20,360 Speaker 2: row twelve, there's a guy in row thirty four. They're 2202 01:55:20,400 --> 01:55:23,440 Speaker 2: waving at each other kind of thing. Shader Sanders obviously 2203 01:55:23,560 --> 01:55:27,320 Speaker 2: his son sixteen of nineteen two thirty four to passing 2204 01:55:27,400 --> 01:55:30,640 Speaker 2: touchdowns a rushing touchdown. People were chronicling the play by 2205 01:55:30,760 --> 01:55:33,680 Speaker 2: play on this perhaps more than any spring game in 2206 01:55:33,800 --> 01:55:36,920 Speaker 2: recent memory. But star power, I mean, that's what college 2207 01:55:36,960 --> 01:55:40,800 Speaker 2: athletics has been changing face of nil and the opportunity 2208 01:55:41,040 --> 01:55:43,840 Speaker 2: in the transfer portal to move about. You really have 2209 01:55:43,960 --> 01:55:47,200 Speaker 2: to have something that you know makes you gravitate to 2210 01:55:47,360 --> 01:55:51,600 Speaker 2: you and Sanders' success, even if that first opening introduction 2211 01:55:52,600 --> 01:55:54,560 Speaker 2: meeting where he was telling everybody you're gonna get cut, 2212 01:55:54,560 --> 01:55:56,680 Speaker 2: and you're gonna get cut, you aught to a lot 2213 01:55:56,720 --> 01:55:59,480 Speaker 2: of leave, didn't rub people the right way. For the 2214 01:55:59,560 --> 01:56:01,920 Speaker 2: most part, brash, and that's who he is. 2215 01:56:02,200 --> 01:56:04,720 Speaker 3: Yeah, well that's you know what, the shame on you 2216 01:56:04,800 --> 01:56:06,760 Speaker 3: for not expecting that, right because they're going to get 2217 01:56:06,880 --> 01:56:09,600 Speaker 3: better players. That's why he's there to bring better talent 2218 01:56:09,800 --> 01:56:12,840 Speaker 3: and better players winning college football. And that's what Dion 2219 01:56:12,960 --> 01:56:16,680 Speaker 3: Sanders is doing and just an amazing turnaround in addition 2220 01:56:16,760 --> 01:56:18,640 Speaker 3: to everything and all of the buzz that went around 2221 01:56:18,680 --> 01:56:18,880 Speaker 3: with it. 2222 01:56:19,160 --> 01:56:21,440 Speaker 2: You know me, whenever we can start getting some buzz 2223 01:56:21,520 --> 01:56:23,720 Speaker 2: and talk college football the end of April. 2224 01:56:23,600 --> 01:56:26,240 Speaker 3: I mean, the Big twelve wants them back, you know, 2225 01:56:26,520 --> 01:56:28,400 Speaker 3: like I mean, and he's a big reason why. 2226 01:56:28,560 --> 01:56:31,800 Speaker 2: One hundred percent.

I'm an old man. So 2252 01:57:58,120 --> 01:58:01,640 Speaker 2: the hair is thinning, which means, uh, well, I got 2253 01:58:02,040 --> 01:58:03,880 Speaker 2: a bit of a die job, at least for my 2254 01:58:03,960 --> 01:58:06,360 Speaker 2: scalp up there. So that's not good for anybody. And 2255 01:58:06,560 --> 01:58:10,480 Speaker 2: the Vocal Cords are starting to struggle a bit.

I think 2264 01:58:31,160 --> 01:58:32,360 Speaker 3: it was the Burt Reynolds lines. 2265 01:58:34,400 --> 01:58:37,600 Speaker 2: Oh good stuff, all right, Dan. We got more NBA 2266 01:58:37,800 --> 01:58:42,520 Speaker 2: action today. Four games on the docket, the Nuggets looking 2267 01:58:42,560 --> 01:58:45,720 Speaker 2: to close out the Timberwolves. I do like the fact 2268 01:58:45,720 --> 01:58:47,840 Speaker 2: that Anthony Edwards is still saying we're not done yet. 2269 01:58:48,560 --> 01:58:51,760 Speaker 2: You haven't vanquished me. It's like the old Monty Python's 2270 01:58:51,760 --> 01:58:53,960 Speaker 2: he hat oh they have flesh wound. As he loses 2271 01:58:54,080 --> 01:58:58,640 Speaker 2: limb and another limb, and then he is just still yelling, 2272 01:58:58,960 --> 01:58:59,640 Speaker 2: run away. 2273 01:58:59,520 --> 01:59:02,720 Speaker 3: You hey, heart of it? You know well, I can't 2274 01:59:02,720 --> 01:59:04,480 Speaker 3: say heart of a champion because you have to win 2275 01:59:04,560 --> 01:59:08,000 Speaker 3: a whip. But I do like the I do like 2276 01:59:08,120 --> 01:59:11,480 Speaker 3: the message, and I know that Anthony Edwards was not 2277 01:59:11,760 --> 01:59:15,680 Speaker 3: great in the Lakers loss, and that's an understatement, right, 2278 01:59:16,000 --> 01:59:20,080 Speaker 3: but still there's there, there is something there, and it's 2279 01:59:20,400 --> 01:59:22,640 Speaker 3: it's shown even though they're not going to win the series. 2280 01:59:23,480 --> 01:59:26,520 Speaker 3: You just wonder the go bear deal on how much 2281 01:59:26,600 --> 01:59:31,040 Speaker 3: that stings in the side, because now it's absolutely not 2282 01:59:31,200 --> 01:59:33,680 Speaker 3: worth it and for what you gave, you thought like, 2283 01:59:33,760 --> 01:59:35,360 Speaker 3: all right, this is the you know, this is the 2284 01:59:35,480 --> 01:59:39,320 Speaker 3: piece to to move us forward. And now he's I 2285 01:59:39,520 --> 01:59:41,320 Speaker 3: think more of a more of a headache. 2286 01:59:41,320 --> 01:59:43,680 Speaker 2: He's more of a hindrance than he than he was 2287 01:59:43,760 --> 01:59:46,520 Speaker 2: a help. But you saw the growth from Edwards good 2288 01:59:46,640 --> 01:59:49,680 Speaker 2: valuable playoff experience, a little bit of hunger there. You 2289 01:59:49,760 --> 01:59:52,640 Speaker 2: saw it coalesce down the stretch to get into the playoffs, 2290 01:59:52,920 --> 01:59:55,560 Speaker 2: and even with that bad effort against the Lakers, he's 2291 01:59:55,600 --> 01:59:58,760 Speaker 2: rebounded with some pretty nice efforts here even though they're 2292 01:59:58,840 --> 02:00:02,920 Speaker 2: down three to zero Boston Atlanta. Atlanta took Game three. 2293 02:00:03,440 --> 02:00:07,440 Speaker 2: Tray Young with a big game in that one, starting 2294 02:00:07,480 --> 02:00:10,400 Speaker 2: to try to push back on the detractors because the 2295 02:00:10,480 --> 02:00:13,360 Speaker 2: noise was starting to come for him pretty pretty loudly. 2296 02:00:13,480 --> 02:00:16,600 Speaker 3: If I have been on the anti Tray Young bandwigon 2297 02:00:16,920 --> 02:00:20,120 Speaker 3: for as long as I can remember. So if you're 2298 02:00:20,160 --> 02:00:22,560 Speaker 3: late to the party, shame on you. He can try 2299 02:00:22,640 --> 02:00:26,120 Speaker 3: to hold them off. Mike, there's just too much there. 2300 02:00:26,240 --> 02:00:32,080 Speaker 3: He's it's I I just the trade, the Tray Young 2301 02:00:32,280 --> 02:00:37,920 Speaker 3: trade talk. This offs you know, for this offseason. To me, 2302 02:00:38,080 --> 02:00:42,120 Speaker 3: it is interesting in the fact of do you think 2303 02:00:42,240 --> 02:00:46,120 Speaker 3: that a trade would trade it changed Tray Young, because 2304 02:00:46,160 --> 02:00:49,680 Speaker 3: that's actually what I think needs to happen, Like there's 2305 02:00:50,560 --> 02:00:53,280 Speaker 3: there needs to just not It doesn't change completely. There 2306 02:00:53,360 --> 02:00:56,120 Speaker 3: just needs to be a little shift. That's all that 2307 02:00:56,200 --> 02:00:58,360 Speaker 3: there is. Because I think Trey Young just wants to 2308 02:00:58,440 --> 02:01:00,400 Speaker 3: be Tray Young, and I think that's the biggest problem. 2309 02:01:01,120 --> 02:01:03,440 Speaker 2: Then we moved to the other series, which I like. 2310 02:01:03,560 --> 02:01:06,120 Speaker 2: The early game is fun, and we alluded to the 2311 02:01:06,400 --> 02:01:08,800 Speaker 2: second game on the on the docket today, which I 2312 02:01:08,840 --> 02:01:11,480 Speaker 2: think is the most interesting and engaging of it all. 2313 02:01:11,600 --> 02:01:15,000 Speaker 2: I love Cleveland Knicks and all, but I get enough 2314 02:01:15,080 --> 02:01:17,480 Speaker 2: Nick talk during the week. I'm not doing it here. Uh, 2315 02:01:17,720 --> 02:01:20,520 Speaker 2: I love you all, that's my gift. 2316 02:01:20,920 --> 02:01:21,120 Speaker 3: Good. 2317 02:01:21,480 --> 02:01:25,320 Speaker 2: But Donovan Mitchell Darius Garland had a big game earlier 2318 02:01:25,360 --> 02:01:28,640 Speaker 2: in the series for the Knicks. Jalen Bronson seemed like 2319 02:01:28,800 --> 02:01:31,480 Speaker 2: people started coming around in as much as I may 2320 02:01:31,760 --> 02:01:33,880 Speaker 2: bemoan the amount of Knicks talk I have to do 2321 02:01:34,000 --> 02:01:37,680 Speaker 2: on a nightly basis. Smith did start calling for Brunson 2322 02:01:37,760 --> 02:01:41,360 Speaker 2: as an MVP at the beginning of the calendar year. 2323 02:01:42,080 --> 02:01:45,160 Speaker 2: So you talk about building a bandwagon that people started 2324 02:01:45,240 --> 02:01:48,280 Speaker 2: jumping on, talk about a culture shift and a guy 2325 02:01:48,440 --> 02:01:53,000 Speaker 2: who with Dereck Rose there as the consulieri like that 2326 02:01:53,160 --> 02:01:55,680 Speaker 2: connection with Tom Thibodeau, that you got a guy who's 2327 02:01:55,800 --> 02:01:58,640 Speaker 2: changed a culture to where they're buying into what they 2328 02:01:58,680 --> 02:01:59,400 Speaker 2: were supposed to be. 2329 02:01:59,560 --> 02:02:03,040 Speaker 3: I underst stand that. But this happens, and not say 2330 02:02:03,080 --> 02:02:05,360 Speaker 3: that a guy goes in and changes the culture all 2331 02:02:06,200 --> 02:02:10,680 Speaker 3: every single year, but it's the Johnny Come Lately like 2332 02:02:10,800 --> 02:02:12,800 Speaker 3: he should be the MVP. And I know what you're 2333 02:02:12,800 --> 02:02:15,480 Speaker 3: saying is that it wasn't. Jason was on it a 2334 02:02:15,520 --> 02:02:18,000 Speaker 3: lot earlier. But I do think that there is there 2335 02:02:18,200 --> 02:02:22,400 Speaker 3: is the to be an MVP candidate. You are in 2336 02:02:22,480 --> 02:02:25,600 Speaker 3: the spotlight. And it's not to say that Jalen Brunson isn't. 2337 02:02:25,680 --> 02:02:28,720 Speaker 3: It's just a different load. And so if Jalen Brunton 2338 02:02:29,080 --> 02:02:32,720 Speaker 3: is considered an MVP candidate, say on New Year's Day 2339 02:02:33,240 --> 02:02:35,880 Speaker 3: he's playing the second half of that NBA season or 2340 02:02:35,920 --> 02:02:39,040 Speaker 3: the final, you know, three plus months Mike with that 2341 02:02:39,320 --> 02:02:42,320 Speaker 3: MVP target, and I do think that that carries weight. 2342 02:02:42,480 --> 02:02:44,240 Speaker 2: Well. I think he should have cried for it, like 2343 02:02:44,360 --> 02:02:46,520 Speaker 2: Joel Embiid did. I think that would have helped him. 2344 02:02:46,720 --> 02:02:48,960 Speaker 3: But at least, like like we know, like like it 2345 02:02:49,120 --> 02:02:53,080 Speaker 3: sorts itself out. And so Yannis Embiid and Jokic have 2346 02:02:53,240 --> 02:02:56,520 Speaker 3: kind of had to play under this MVP umbrella and 2347 02:02:57,400 --> 02:02:59,200 Speaker 3: where Brunton has just been able to go about what 2348 02:02:59,360 --> 02:03:01,240 Speaker 3: do his things? Yeah, and I think that there is 2349 02:03:01,360 --> 02:03:04,080 Speaker 3: something to that. So while there is an argument that 2350 02:03:04,200 --> 02:03:06,480 Speaker 3: can be made and you know, the term valuable, I 2351 02:03:06,600 --> 02:03:09,000 Speaker 3: get all of that, but I just don't like the 2352 02:03:09,400 --> 02:03:11,640 Speaker 3: because I just remember years back, all of a sudden, 2353 02:03:11,680 --> 02:03:15,080 Speaker 3: Kawhi had like a sixty point game like in March, 2354 02:03:15,720 --> 02:03:17,800 Speaker 3: and he went from what would be like eight to 2355 02:03:17,960 --> 02:03:20,640 Speaker 3: like first on people's MVP, And it's like, what can't 2356 02:03:20,720 --> 02:03:23,720 Speaker 3: happen that quickly? Like just because you realized it now 2357 02:03:25,040 --> 02:03:27,320 Speaker 3: doesn't mean that it should happen now. 2358 02:03:27,560 --> 02:03:29,960 Speaker 2: No, we needed it for that a block. Dan, Yeah, 2359 02:03:30,200 --> 02:03:34,360 Speaker 2: that's why he went from eight to one. Business true, 2360 02:03:34,640 --> 02:03:36,440 Speaker 2: I mean if he moves from eight to five and 2361 02:03:36,560 --> 02:03:39,240 Speaker 2: then five to three and three to one doesn't matter 2362 02:03:39,560 --> 02:03:41,720 Speaker 2: if he jumped seven slots. 2363 02:03:41,560 --> 02:03:45,160 Speaker 3: Mike, Come on, It's why I did the NFL MVP pyramid. 2364 02:03:45,280 --> 02:03:47,120 Speaker 3: I only did it for the one season to prove 2365 02:03:47,160 --> 02:03:50,800 Speaker 3: a point. But that's the reason why is because what 2366 02:03:50,880 --> 02:03:53,160 Speaker 3: would happen is there would be an NFL player, a 2367 02:03:53,240 --> 02:03:55,560 Speaker 3: quarterback that would have a great game on Sunday Night 2368 02:03:55,640 --> 02:03:58,560 Speaker 3: Football in week eleven, and all of a sudden we're like, hey, 2369 02:03:58,640 --> 02:04:01,920 Speaker 3: maybe they're the MVP. Well what about Patrick Mahomes who's 2370 02:04:01,920 --> 02:04:04,720 Speaker 3: been lugged, you know, lugging this MVP luggage for the 2371 02:04:04,840 --> 02:04:08,080 Speaker 3: last ten weeks, or Aaron Rodgers or someone else. Like 2372 02:04:08,200 --> 02:04:10,520 Speaker 3: that's the point of it. There's something with that. There's 2373 02:04:10,560 --> 02:04:14,200 Speaker 3: something with playing with the expectation of being an MVP 2374 02:04:15,520 --> 02:04:18,000 Speaker 3: or not playing. Look at what happened to embiid when 2375 02:04:18,000 --> 02:04:20,640 Speaker 3: he didn't play against you know, yokitch like that, like 2376 02:04:20,800 --> 02:04:22,680 Speaker 3: that he took a hit. He took a hit. 2377 02:04:23,560 --> 02:04:26,919 Speaker 2: Yes, you can't cry about it on Friday into Saturday 2378 02:04:27,360 --> 02:04:29,440 Speaker 2: and then on Monday night not show up for again. 2379 02:04:29,520 --> 02:04:33,600 Speaker 3: Correct and I and but that's something that Jalen Brunson 2380 02:04:34,280 --> 02:04:36,560 Speaker 3: didn't have to deal with hundred percent. 2381 02:04:36,600 --> 02:04:39,080 Speaker 2: It was more just a look over here, from a 2382 02:04:39,920 --> 02:04:43,400 Speaker 2: if he's not in the headlines, a guy that, let's 2383 02:04:43,400 --> 02:04:47,080 Speaker 2: face it, outside of New York, not a lot of 2384 02:04:47,160 --> 02:04:50,400 Speaker 2: talk and Nick's talk on the airwaves unless you're listening 2385 02:04:50,480 --> 02:04:53,000 Speaker 2: to me and Jason seven to eleven weeknights here Fox 2386 02:04:53,040 --> 02:04:55,640 Speaker 2: Sports Radio. They find their way in. They're in, they're 2387 02:04:55,680 --> 02:04:58,400 Speaker 2: closing out games in our window, and then I've got 2388 02:04:58,520 --> 02:05:01,680 Speaker 2: to deal with whether he's happy or yes. So that's 2389 02:05:01,680 --> 02:05:03,520 Speaker 2: the way it works. It's the nature of the beast, 2390 02:05:03,720 --> 02:05:05,240 Speaker 2: as it were. But the other game that's on the 2391 02:05:05,360 --> 02:05:09,160 Speaker 2: on the board here a twelve thirty Pacific tip is 2392 02:05:09,360 --> 02:05:12,800 Speaker 2: Sacramento and Golden State. Golden State getting Draymond Green back 2393 02:05:12,880 --> 02:05:17,640 Speaker 2: after the one game suspension. Steph Curry. I thought, another 2394 02:05:17,720 --> 02:05:19,760 Speaker 2: guy like, you're honest, like I doesn't say it, Yeah 2395 02:05:19,800 --> 02:05:23,080 Speaker 2: he does. He's just smiling at you when he does 2396 02:05:23,160 --> 02:05:25,520 Speaker 2: it to get his point across, just saying, you know, 2397 02:05:26,040 --> 02:05:29,680 Speaker 2: Draymond's got his history, well so do we. In other words, 2398 02:05:29,760 --> 02:05:31,480 Speaker 2: saying well we can win games. 2399 02:05:31,760 --> 02:05:33,200 Speaker 3: You know. He tried that out at. 2400 02:05:33,120 --> 02:05:35,840 Speaker 2: Home one hundred percent that was workshopped. 2401 02:05:35,440 --> 02:05:38,720 Speaker 3: Yes, which is a good line though it's it rerunded 2402 02:05:38,720 --> 02:05:42,120 Speaker 3: me of the Gino Smith. They tried to right me off. 2403 02:05:42,280 --> 02:05:45,400 Speaker 3: But they but I didn't right back, we. 2404 02:05:45,440 --> 02:05:48,240 Speaker 2: Got any results of whether Gino or Steph has made 2405 02:05:48,280 --> 02:05:50,400 Speaker 2: any money off T shirts with those logan jet. 2406 02:05:50,440 --> 02:05:53,440 Speaker 3: The Gino one didn't even make sense, like it, it 2407 02:05:53,600 --> 02:05:56,800 Speaker 3: made no sense whatsoever, but people fell in love with it. 2408 02:05:57,920 --> 02:06:00,840 Speaker 3: At least Steph's made sense. But there's no way that 2409 02:06:00,960 --> 02:06:03,320 Speaker 3: that just came off of the top of his head. 2410 02:06:03,840 --> 02:06:06,920 Speaker 3: Not when when Klay Thompson is showing four all season 2411 02:06:07,000 --> 02:06:10,480 Speaker 3: long to Dylan Brooks, sort of Devin Booker to anybody else. 2412 02:06:10,560 --> 02:06:13,280 Speaker 3: They know about their four rings and they know the 2413 02:06:13,360 --> 02:06:16,000 Speaker 3: kind of leverage that they haven't talking trash to anybody 2414 02:06:16,240 --> 02:06:17,280 Speaker 3: because of that jewelry. 2415 02:06:17,560 --> 02:06:21,160 Speaker 2: Now, the Warriors at home, as has been well chronicled, 2416 02:06:21,200 --> 02:06:23,520 Speaker 2: and maybe you've got a little fatigue of it, but 2417 02:06:23,840 --> 02:06:27,919 Speaker 2: there's such a different team at home, the the role players. 2418 02:06:28,160 --> 02:06:31,840 Speaker 2: Jordan Poole is more, far more engaged in a home 2419 02:06:31,920 --> 02:06:33,200 Speaker 2: game than he is on the road. 2420 02:06:33,800 --> 02:06:37,320 Speaker 3: Yeah, And I'm also going to say this, I love 2421 02:06:37,880 --> 02:06:42,320 Speaker 3: Steph Curry's look with his long sleeve and no sleeve. 2422 02:06:43,520 --> 02:06:46,560 Speaker 3: I think that that is like you look and steps 2423 02:06:47,040 --> 02:06:50,280 Speaker 3: you know, added muscle throughout, so he fills out a 2424 02:06:50,320 --> 02:06:53,000 Speaker 3: little bit more there are a lot of different ways. 2425 02:06:53,040 --> 02:06:55,000 Speaker 3: I'm not a huge fan of guys wearing the tights 2426 02:06:55,320 --> 02:06:58,360 Speaker 3: under the shorts, so it's just, you know, you're basically 2427 02:06:58,440 --> 02:07:01,000 Speaker 3: wearing pants, you know, short over a pair of pants. 2428 02:07:01,600 --> 02:07:06,600 Speaker 3: I like Steph's sleeve no sleeve. I think he looks 2429 02:07:06,640 --> 02:07:08,400 Speaker 3: really he looks really cool, like. 2430 02:07:08,440 --> 02:07:11,160 Speaker 2: He should be coming out of a boundary Bounty Hunter 2431 02:07:11,280 --> 02:07:14,680 Speaker 2: series as part of the Disney plus Star Wars universe. 2432 02:07:14,800 --> 02:07:16,400 Speaker 2: I think he could be in the next season of 2433 02:07:16,440 --> 02:07:17,160 Speaker 2: The Mandalorian. 2434 02:07:17,280 --> 02:07:20,480 Speaker 3: I think he is one of the better on court. 2435 02:07:20,560 --> 02:07:22,840 Speaker 3: I think it's one of the better on court. Looks 2436 02:07:22,920 --> 02:07:26,000 Speaker 3: like Lebron because he's ripped and big. Actually just looks 2437 02:07:26,280 --> 02:07:29,320 Speaker 3: good in any uniform. But like Steph, I think looks 2438 02:07:29,400 --> 02:07:32,800 Speaker 3: really cool in his Anthony Edwards has got something going on. 2439 02:07:33,000 --> 02:07:36,880 Speaker 3: Speaking of him, you know where it's it's like it's 2440 02:07:36,960 --> 02:07:40,920 Speaker 3: kind of like half Timmy Kleinschmidt from De Paul where, yes, 2441 02:07:41,080 --> 02:07:43,720 Speaker 3: where he had the sleeveless that that's who I thought 2442 02:07:43,840 --> 02:07:44,080 Speaker 3: wore it. 2443 02:07:44,960 --> 02:07:46,760 Speaker 2: Kleinschmidt. There we go. 2444 02:07:47,040 --> 02:07:48,400 Speaker 3: That is not a reference. 2445 02:07:48,440 --> 02:07:51,360 Speaker 2: I thought I was getting rip off. 2446 02:07:51,240 --> 02:07:54,080 Speaker 3: The short sleeves. That's what I thought. That's what Anthony 2447 02:07:54,200 --> 02:07:56,560 Speaker 3: Edwards but Steph's is so clean and it's got you know, 2448 02:07:56,680 --> 02:07:59,120 Speaker 3: his gear under it. It's a very very good look. 2449 02:07:59,560 --> 02:07:59,880 Speaker 2: That is. 2450 02:08:01,400 --> 02:08:05,840 Speaker 3: That makes me so hard the man the Paul could 2451 02:08:05,880 --> 02:08:06,920 Speaker 3: be back, right, Mike. 2452 02:08:08,560 --> 02:08:12,640 Speaker 2: What if once upon a time from Ray Meyer the legend, 2453 02:08:13,320 --> 02:08:15,640 Speaker 2: Marcaguire and Terry Cummings and all those guys. 2454 02:08:15,840 --> 02:08:19,840 Speaker 3: Still it was a little while too, Quin Richardson for 2455 02:08:20,000 --> 02:08:23,160 Speaker 3: just a little Yeah, yep, that's about. 2456 02:08:22,920 --> 02:08:27,360 Speaker 2: It playing out in Rosemont. Good times. Uh see now 2457 02:08:27,360 --> 02:08:29,880 Speaker 2: I'm going back in the way back machine and all 2458 02:08:29,960 --> 02:08:33,320 Speaker 2: of those postgame meetups with players and stuff. Good times, 2459 02:08:33,720 --> 02:08:38,400 Speaker 2: good times. But the Warriors, you know, the road struggles 2460 02:08:38,440 --> 02:08:41,280 Speaker 2: well chronicled. The Kings are a fun story that I 2461 02:08:41,320 --> 02:08:43,840 Speaker 2: think everybody gravitud maybe the last month of the season 2462 02:08:43,880 --> 02:08:47,160 Speaker 2: suddenly realizing, hey, they're not going away, because I think 2463 02:08:47,200 --> 02:08:52,080 Speaker 2: remember the start Utah had, yes, which was in Congress. 2464 02:08:52,120 --> 02:08:54,480 Speaker 2: They got rid of you know, Donovan Mitchell. They're supposed 2465 02:08:54,480 --> 02:08:57,280 Speaker 2: to be terrible, and then marketing in and company, who's 2466 02:08:57,320 --> 02:09:01,280 Speaker 2: serving a military stint, by the way, required so good 2467 02:09:01,360 --> 02:09:05,320 Speaker 2: luck to him during that six months. But they came 2468 02:09:05,360 --> 02:09:08,600 Speaker 2: out of the gates really well and then well they 2469 02:09:08,680 --> 02:09:13,560 Speaker 2: finished where everybody had anticipated. They would finish with Sacramento. 2470 02:09:13,640 --> 02:09:18,400 Speaker 2: It never stopped good rotation, deep rotation, darreon Fox taking 2471 02:09:18,480 --> 02:09:22,360 Speaker 2: that next step forward, and now we've got ourselves a series. 2472 02:09:22,520 --> 02:09:27,880 Speaker 2: And Sabonis has always been a good player. I don't 2473 02:09:27,920 --> 02:09:30,520 Speaker 2: know that anybody really paid attention to him though, right 2474 02:09:30,560 --> 02:09:32,880 Speaker 2: all Star nods and whatever, but he was just a guy. 2475 02:09:33,080 --> 02:09:37,200 Speaker 3: Yes well, And I think the evidence is how many 2476 02:09:37,280 --> 02:09:39,840 Speaker 3: people pointed out that they felt that the Kings made 2477 02:09:39,840 --> 02:09:44,960 Speaker 3: an absolute all time blunder by trading away Tarrese Haliburton 2478 02:09:45,000 --> 02:09:48,840 Speaker 3: for him, Like there's like there's and Haliburton could go 2479 02:09:48,960 --> 02:09:52,840 Speaker 3: on to years and years of being an NBA All Star. 2480 02:09:53,480 --> 02:09:55,960 Speaker 3: But we saw the success that he had in Indiana 2481 02:09:56,040 --> 02:09:58,760 Speaker 3: this past year of being an All Star. But now 2482 02:09:58,840 --> 02:10:00,840 Speaker 3: you look at that trade and isn't as bad as 2483 02:10:01,360 --> 02:10:03,840 Speaker 3: it first looked. You looked at it with the King's 2484 02:10:04,240 --> 02:10:09,080 Speaker 3: history of them bung you know, bungling every move and 2485 02:10:09,520 --> 02:10:12,600 Speaker 3: not taking Luca, taking Marvin Bagley, and just the problems 2486 02:10:12,640 --> 02:10:15,160 Speaker 3: that have been in the front office, and you thought, oh, 2487 02:10:15,320 --> 02:10:18,160 Speaker 3: here's another one they get. They finally get a good 2488 02:10:18,240 --> 02:10:20,880 Speaker 3: young player. But now they're going to move them along 2489 02:10:21,120 --> 02:10:23,880 Speaker 3: for Sibonis, who I don't know if people just felt 2490 02:10:23,880 --> 02:10:26,120 Speaker 3: that he only had so much upside. But yeah, it's 2491 02:10:26,120 --> 02:10:29,560 Speaker 3: been great. You had Malik Monk. They don't play a 2492 02:10:29,600 --> 02:10:31,720 Speaker 3: lot of defense, but it's good. 2493 02:10:32,000 --> 02:10:33,480 Speaker 2: It makes it a more entertaining game. 2494 02:10:33,560 --> 02:10:33,760 Speaker 3: Yeah. 2495 02:10:33,840 --> 02:10:36,280 Speaker 2: If you have that of the Warriors in a fast 2496 02:10:36,360 --> 02:10:38,360 Speaker 2: paced up and down game, we all win. 2497 02:10:38,920 --> 02:10:41,720 Speaker 3: Yeah. And then Warriors didn't turn it over in Game three, 2498 02:10:42,320 --> 02:10:45,440 Speaker 3: which helps because it's been their buggabooth throughout the season. 2499 02:10:45,480 --> 02:10:46,800 Speaker 3: Only turned it over eleven times. 2500 02:10:47,160 --> 02:10:49,520 Speaker 2: See what kind of effort we get today. I think 2501 02:10:49,520 --> 02:10:52,080 Speaker 2: they're seven or seven and a half point favorites last 2502 02:10:52,160 --> 02:10:55,080 Speaker 2: I had looked for this one, given the fact that 2503 02:10:55,120 --> 02:10:57,520 Speaker 2: they're down to one in the series. Perhaps a little 2504 02:10:57,560 --> 02:10:59,120 Speaker 2: bit of a surprise, But then you look at what 2505 02:10:59,240 --> 02:11:02,200 Speaker 2: they did on the home court all season long, as 2506 02:11:02,400 --> 02:11:05,960 Speaker 2: bad as they were on the road, dominant in front 2507 02:11:05,960 --> 02:11:08,200 Speaker 2: of the home fans. Draymond comes back. So that'll be 2508 02:11:08,320 --> 02:11:12,240 Speaker 2: the side show of the day to see how that 2509 02:11:12,360 --> 02:11:16,520 Speaker 2: gets officiated and adjudicated in the opening minutes of the game. 2510 02:11:16,680 --> 02:11:19,920 Speaker 2: So we'll roll through that and Steph will have the 2511 02:11:20,400 --> 02:11:21,240 Speaker 2: look of the marksman. 2512 02:11:21,440 --> 02:11:23,320 Speaker 3: I will also say this, and I'm not saying that 2513 02:11:23,400 --> 02:11:25,800 Speaker 3: the NBA is rigged. It's not what I'm saying, I 2514 02:11:25,920 --> 02:11:28,800 Speaker 3: do feel that people feel that King's got benefits of 2515 02:11:28,840 --> 02:11:33,360 Speaker 3: the call, specifically with the Sibonis Draymond thing. That stuff 2516 02:11:33,680 --> 02:11:35,400 Speaker 3: may not tend to even out, but I think that 2517 02:11:35,480 --> 02:11:37,560 Speaker 3: it will even out in the season the longer the 2518 02:11:37,640 --> 02:11:41,120 Speaker 3: series goes. I think the more calls the Warriors get. 2519 02:11:42,280 --> 02:11:45,480 Speaker 2: It's generally how it's supposed to operate, right that you 2520 02:11:45,560 --> 02:11:48,440 Speaker 2: have a zero sum balance. Sure, now in this case, 2521 02:11:48,480 --> 02:11:51,920 Speaker 2: you had the suspension that depending on where you were, 2522 02:11:52,120 --> 02:11:54,960 Speaker 2: And I was really surprised Doc Rivers was as vocal 2523 02:11:55,760 --> 02:11:58,720 Speaker 2: about it as he was. Seemed like he was begging 2524 02:11:58,840 --> 02:12:02,000 Speaker 2: to lose some of his paycheck. Sure, the way he 2525 02:12:02,160 --> 02:12:05,680 Speaker 2: kind of went out officials and the technical falls and 2526 02:12:05,800 --> 02:12:09,800 Speaker 2: the ejections and everything, I thought it was. I liked it. 2527 02:12:09,960 --> 02:12:12,480 Speaker 2: I mean, I liked the branch honesty, but it was 2528 02:12:12,520 --> 02:12:15,680 Speaker 2: also a hey, take fifty thousand dollars of my body please? 2529 02:12:15,800 --> 02:12:16,240 Speaker 2: Did you hear? 2530 02:12:16,400 --> 02:12:22,400 Speaker 3: Yesterday Doc clarified his wrong usage of words when when 2531 02:12:22,480 --> 02:12:26,200 Speaker 3: he said the guys told me that it's play with 2532 02:12:26,320 --> 02:12:30,080 Speaker 3: your food because he used a different term. Oh yeah, yeah, 2533 02:12:31,000 --> 02:12:33,320 Speaker 3: So he started off the presser after the game before 2534 02:12:33,440 --> 02:12:35,880 Speaker 3: when just to just to clarify the guys in the 2535 02:12:35,920 --> 02:12:39,480 Speaker 3: locker room said, yeah, the phrase coaches play with your food, 2536 02:12:39,640 --> 02:12:40,560 Speaker 3: that's what you want to play with. 2537 02:12:41,880 --> 02:12:46,280 Speaker 2: Good catch meat.

And it looks like we have an update 2562 02:13:59,360 --> 02:14:03,440 Speaker 2: ontential penalties resulting from an injection. So we're gonna turn 2563 02:14:03,480 --> 02:14:05,800 Speaker 2: over to Isaac Lowan Crown for an update as the 2564 02:14:06,360 --> 02:14:10,920 Speaker 2: buzz and bells and whizzles begin here on Fox Sports Radio. 2565 02:14:13,880 --> 02:14:15,839 Speaker 1: Breaking news from Fox Sports. 2566 02:14:16,080 --> 02:14:19,680 Speaker 5: Multiple outlets have just reported that the NBA will not 2567 02:14:20,200 --> 02:14:23,520 Speaker 5: suspend Dylan Brooks of the Memphis Grizzlies after review of 2568 02:14:23,640 --> 02:14:26,880 Speaker 5: his flagrant foul penalty two on Lebron James in Game 2569 02:14:26,960 --> 02:14:30,360 Speaker 5: three last night. So fellas, Dylan Brooks will be available 2570 02:14:30,400 --> 02:14:32,240 Speaker 5: to play for Memphis in game four. 2571 02:14:33,320 --> 02:14:35,440 Speaker 2: Did he have any comment on it yet, Ilaho or 2572 02:14:36,640 --> 02:14:37,440 Speaker 2: let's check live? 2573 02:14:39,080 --> 02:14:39,520 Speaker 3: Alright? Good? 2574 02:14:41,400 --> 02:14:41,720 Speaker 2: Nicely? 2575 02:14:41,920 --> 02:14:46,600 Speaker 3: Not a nothing, thanks, Isaac, you bet not surprise you 2576 02:14:46,680 --> 02:14:49,080 Speaker 3: and I both felt that it was a player on 2577 02:14:49,160 --> 02:14:53,960 Speaker 3: the ball singular nicely done, yes, of Lebron dribbling it 2578 02:14:54,040 --> 02:14:54,880 Speaker 3: behind his back, and. 2579 02:14:54,920 --> 02:14:57,080 Speaker 2: Then they were like the jackson the green they were plural. 2580 02:14:57,600 --> 02:15:02,040 Speaker 3: Yes, yes, that's where it was bad defense. 2581 02:15:02,280 --> 02:15:05,680 Speaker 2: Yeah. No, it's got a lazy, lazy swipe at a 2582 02:15:05,760 --> 02:15:08,480 Speaker 2: crossover dribble or at least that's what I took from it. 2583 02:15:09,000 --> 02:15:13,080 Speaker 2: And he happened to then have master thespian Lebron James 2584 02:15:13,160 --> 02:15:15,600 Speaker 2: sell the hell out of it. Okay, so because all 2585 02:15:15,640 --> 02:15:17,240 Speaker 2: the build up, it became a bigger thing. 2586 02:15:17,720 --> 02:15:21,320 Speaker 3: Yes, But then I also thought about this throughout this show, 2587 02:15:22,360 --> 02:15:25,880 Speaker 3: and again you brought up my soon to be two 2588 02:15:25,960 --> 02:15:29,680 Speaker 3: year old and the dangers of maybe wearing you know, 2589 02:15:29,800 --> 02:15:33,480 Speaker 3: an athletic supporter around the house because of what could happen. 2590 02:15:34,640 --> 02:15:35,760 Speaker 2: It's good advice. 2591 02:15:37,320 --> 02:15:40,040 Speaker 3: Just of running or you know, running on the couch 2592 02:15:40,200 --> 02:15:45,760 Speaker 3: or whatever the case is. The fact is, if Lebron 2593 02:15:46,360 --> 02:15:51,440 Speaker 3: was hit in the certain area, there would be reason 2594 02:15:51,760 --> 02:15:55,360 Speaker 3: to writhe in pain for three minutes on the floor 2595 02:15:56,360 --> 02:16:00,640 Speaker 3: like there's there like that wouldn't be it wouldn't be 2596 02:16:00,840 --> 02:16:05,200 Speaker 3: acting Mike if it did. And that's I'm trying to 2597 02:16:05,280 --> 02:16:07,520 Speaker 3: keep this as clean as I can, but I think 2598 02:16:07,560 --> 02:16:11,040 Speaker 3: we all understand that if there was a spot you know, 2599 02:16:11,200 --> 02:16:15,720 Speaker 3: where you were, you know, where contact was made, it 2600 02:16:15,840 --> 02:16:18,480 Speaker 3: would be extreme pain. 2601 02:16:18,840 --> 02:16:22,520 Speaker 2: No, certainly, and let's face it, you're also the Lebron 2602 02:16:22,720 --> 02:16:26,720 Speaker 2: James minute. As we've discussed with Rick Buker, he coined 2603 02:16:26,760 --> 02:16:28,720 Speaker 2: the term a long time ago. How do you steal 2604 02:16:28,760 --> 02:16:31,440 Speaker 2: an extra minute or two on the court. He might 2605 02:16:31,600 --> 02:16:35,720 Speaker 2: play a little lesser defense, or maybe take yourself out 2606 02:16:35,760 --> 02:16:38,600 Speaker 2: of an offensive possession, and you've gotten credit for the 2607 02:16:38,680 --> 02:16:40,840 Speaker 2: full minute when you did. I always joke about that 2608 02:16:40,959 --> 02:16:42,720 Speaker 2: with my daughter. When a ball goes out of bounds 2609 02:16:42,760 --> 02:16:45,360 Speaker 2: at soccer, no reason to go sprinting after it. No 2610 02:16:45,720 --> 02:16:48,480 Speaker 2: Cadillac that stuff. And when you're while you're waiting for 2611 02:16:48,600 --> 02:16:51,320 Speaker 2: them to put it back and play, that's another minute 2612 02:16:51,360 --> 02:16:53,440 Speaker 2: off the clock. Now, in this case, I don't think 2613 02:16:53,480 --> 02:16:57,400 Speaker 2: they added any injury time for Lebron James rolling around, 2614 02:16:57,480 --> 02:17:00,879 Speaker 2: but good that Brooks will be out there adds storylines, 2615 02:17:00,920 --> 02:17:05,360 Speaker 2: ad momentum, and excitement. Now Thursday, we've got our draft 2616 02:17:05,400 --> 02:17:08,320 Speaker 2: coverage starts here at five o'clock Pacific time. As we 2617 02:17:08,400 --> 02:17:12,160 Speaker 2: go through round one, Jay Glazer as always bringing us 2618 02:17:12,280 --> 02:17:16,120 Speaker 2: the best information that you are gonna find anywhere. Rob Stone, 2619 02:17:16,240 --> 02:17:20,359 Speaker 2: LeVar Arrington, and Steve Kaim former Cardinals GM all together, 2620 02:17:20,920 --> 02:17:23,080 Speaker 2: and then Smith and I come on after the fact. 2621 02:17:24,200 --> 02:17:27,480 Speaker 2: First round intriguing because you got the quarterbacks that everybody's 2622 02:17:27,520 --> 02:17:29,800 Speaker 2: trying to slot, and it becomes the old do you 2623 02:17:29,920 --> 02:17:32,560 Speaker 2: have to go get one just because you think you 2624 02:17:32,720 --> 02:17:36,080 Speaker 2: need a quarterback? Even if these aren't the guy, but 2625 02:17:36,200 --> 02:17:38,480 Speaker 2: they play quarterback. You need a quarterback, you have to 2626 02:17:38,600 --> 02:17:41,720 Speaker 2: draft one. May not like him, you may not think 2627 02:17:41,840 --> 02:17:44,840 Speaker 2: he's a Day one guy, but maybe out of desperation, 2628 02:17:45,360 --> 02:17:49,400 Speaker 2: you find yourself there. But other teams trying to figure 2629 02:17:49,400 --> 02:17:51,880 Speaker 2: out what the next steps are in their evolution. For 2630 02:17:51,959 --> 02:17:56,920 Speaker 2: the Packers, we look at the seemingly inevitable move that 2631 02:17:57,080 --> 02:18:00,280 Speaker 2: puts Aaron Rodgers either into retirement or as a member 2632 02:18:00,320 --> 02:18:04,080 Speaker 2: of the Jets. Now selfishly, I hope he decides to 2633 02:18:04,200 --> 02:18:06,200 Speaker 2: just go walk the earth like Caine and Kung Fu, 2634 02:18:06,560 --> 02:18:09,120 Speaker 2: because it'll make my show with Jason Smith one of 2635 02:18:09,160 --> 02:18:13,360 Speaker 2: the most listened to and greatest multi hour experience. I'll 2636 02:18:13,400 --> 02:18:16,200 Speaker 2: be rolling around like I'm Curly in a three Stooges 2637 02:18:16,320 --> 02:18:20,040 Speaker 2: short if that happens on Night one of the draft. Okay, 2638 02:18:20,760 --> 02:18:24,720 Speaker 2: I will get so much mileage out of going and 2639 02:18:24,840 --> 02:18:27,920 Speaker 2: doing that little kick around while I'm laughing like I'm madman. 2640 02:18:28,320 --> 02:18:30,600 Speaker 2: But let's just say he goes to the Jets either way, 2641 02:18:30,640 --> 02:18:34,840 Speaker 2: it's Jordan Love's team. Yes, so going forward, Christian Watson, 2642 02:18:34,959 --> 02:18:38,959 Speaker 2: Romeo Dobbs, you're looking at the backfield is set. Those 2643 02:18:39,040 --> 02:18:43,480 Speaker 2: guys return both Jones and Dylan for another run. Offensive 2644 02:18:43,600 --> 02:18:48,039 Speaker 2: line has some issues defensively, was not the team we expected, right. 2645 02:18:48,080 --> 02:18:49,920 Speaker 2: We talked about it a lot on the iWatch Flex 2646 02:18:50,000 --> 02:18:52,920 Speaker 2: podcast and here on Sunday Mornings a little bit once 2647 02:18:52,959 --> 02:18:57,080 Speaker 2: we reconvened here in the postseason of the expectations for 2648 02:18:57,160 --> 02:19:00,480 Speaker 2: the Packers were high defensively, and they failed every turn. 2649 02:19:01,000 --> 02:19:02,720 Speaker 2: Every time there was a chance to make a play, 2650 02:19:03,280 --> 02:19:07,720 Speaker 2: they didn't. And for fantasy owners and certainly for those 2651 02:19:07,800 --> 02:19:10,240 Speaker 2: that thought the Packers would be able to ride the 2652 02:19:10,320 --> 02:19:14,800 Speaker 2: defense and then whatever integrate the young receivers, that didn't happen. Well, 2653 02:19:14,879 --> 02:19:18,800 Speaker 2: Lazarge's gone, He's off to the Jets. But for Jordan Love, 2654 02:19:19,120 --> 02:19:22,120 Speaker 2: the question becomes, are you drafting another weapon in the 2655 02:19:22,200 --> 02:19:25,039 Speaker 2: first round or you're building on the interior. 2656 02:19:24,640 --> 02:19:28,040 Speaker 3: Which would be so rich, but it makes sense. It 2657 02:19:28,080 --> 02:19:31,480 Speaker 3: would make sense for green Bay to draft the Jackson 2658 02:19:31,560 --> 02:19:34,560 Speaker 3: Smith and Jigba or to go tight end Michael Mayer 2659 02:19:34,800 --> 02:19:39,000 Speaker 3: Dalton Kincaid from Utah one of those guys to be 2660 02:19:39,160 --> 02:19:43,040 Speaker 3: a weapon because I think when you look at it 2661 02:19:43,320 --> 02:19:47,920 Speaker 3: and it's not right, it may not be right. But 2662 02:19:48,040 --> 02:19:49,960 Speaker 3: I think Green Bay just looked at it and thought 2663 02:19:50,040 --> 02:19:53,560 Speaker 3: to themselves, you know what, Aaron Rodgers is so good 2664 02:19:54,320 --> 02:19:56,720 Speaker 3: that he can lift everybody else up, So why why 2665 02:19:56,760 --> 02:19:59,240 Speaker 3: don't we take care of other things where you actually 2666 02:19:59,320 --> 02:20:02,400 Speaker 3: do need to. Maybe Jordan Love with some more support, 2667 02:20:02,560 --> 02:20:06,120 Speaker 3: some more weapons to make it easier on him. And 2668 02:20:06,280 --> 02:20:10,760 Speaker 3: I had I had cousins. Okay, one worked, the other 2669 02:20:10,879 --> 02:20:14,480 Speaker 3: one ended up staying at home having kids. The one 2670 02:20:14,520 --> 02:20:19,640 Speaker 3: that worked, the single no life. Well, the parents always 2671 02:20:19,640 --> 02:20:22,160 Speaker 3: took care of the kid that had the kids because 2672 02:20:22,400 --> 02:20:25,040 Speaker 3: guess what they needed, extra money, they needed. And the 2673 02:20:25,120 --> 02:20:27,560 Speaker 3: other one was like, you work, You're fine for yourself, 2674 02:20:27,600 --> 02:20:29,160 Speaker 3: but we're going to take care of these because this 2675 02:20:29,320 --> 02:20:31,280 Speaker 3: person has more responsibility. 2676 02:20:31,400 --> 02:20:33,320 Speaker 2: Sounds like a particle to son is straight out of 2677 02:20:33,360 --> 02:20:33,720 Speaker 2: the Bible. 2678 02:20:33,840 --> 02:20:36,400 Speaker 3: Well that's you know, and that's what it was. And 2679 02:20:36,600 --> 02:20:38,560 Speaker 3: it's kind of the same way with Aaron Rodgers and 2680 02:20:38,640 --> 02:20:41,760 Speaker 3: Jordan Love and being like, you know, like Jordan Love's 2681 02:20:41,800 --> 02:20:44,280 Speaker 3: got three kids to take care of, you know, And 2682 02:20:45,080 --> 02:20:49,680 Speaker 3: and so Aaron Rodgers doesn't need to. He's Aaron Rodgers, 2683 02:20:49,760 --> 02:20:52,880 Speaker 3: he's self sufficient. He can you know, he has everything 2684 02:20:53,000 --> 02:20:55,360 Speaker 3: that he needs and he can lift others. And that's 2685 02:20:55,400 --> 02:20:58,960 Speaker 3: where I think it actually makes sense. It's probably not 2686 02:20:59,120 --> 02:21:01,520 Speaker 3: fair to Aaron Rodgers, and it's the reason why Aaron 2687 02:21:01,560 --> 02:21:04,160 Speaker 3: Rodgers was frustrated, But for Green May to use that 2688 02:21:04,480 --> 02:21:07,960 Speaker 3: first round pick on a skill position player, specifically at 2689 02:21:08,000 --> 02:21:10,960 Speaker 3: the tight end or wide receiver position, actually makes sense 2690 02:21:11,000 --> 02:21:11,720 Speaker 3: of this draft. 2691 02:21:11,600 --> 02:21:14,920 Speaker 2: What it's always thought. And maybe I'm the loan voice 2692 02:21:14,959 --> 02:21:17,360 Speaker 2: on it. I thought the drafting of Love made sense. 2693 02:21:17,840 --> 02:21:18,240 Speaker 3: I agree. 2694 02:21:18,879 --> 02:21:22,760 Speaker 2: I still will hold that alone. Yeah, because you know, 2695 02:21:22,879 --> 02:21:25,400 Speaker 2: go draft a wide receiver. Because I was drafted second, 2696 02:21:25,480 --> 02:21:29,000 Speaker 2: third round. They had good success night, continuity in the building, 2697 02:21:29,720 --> 02:21:34,199 Speaker 2: and a program that worked. Likewise, the narrative in Baltimore 2698 02:21:34,240 --> 02:21:37,040 Speaker 2: has always been false as well. They went and got 2699 02:21:37,080 --> 02:21:39,680 Speaker 2: a lot of guys they just did weren't all stars 2700 02:21:40,360 --> 02:21:43,640 Speaker 2: or only had specific things they did well. Hollywood Brown 2701 02:21:44,040 --> 02:21:46,600 Speaker 2: had moments of greatness. Problem is he couldn't do the 2702 02:21:46,640 --> 02:21:49,560 Speaker 2: whole route tree and everything else, and the offense didn't 2703 02:21:49,600 --> 02:21:51,760 Speaker 2: evolve with him. And now he goes and he might 2704 02:21:51,800 --> 02:21:54,440 Speaker 2: be the last man standing. In Arizona, they drafted tight 2705 02:21:54,560 --> 02:21:57,080 Speaker 2: ends or whatever. Sometimes they work. Sometimes they didn't. Obviously, 2706 02:21:57,200 --> 02:22:00,200 Speaker 2: Andrews a big star. The running game has been a 2707 02:22:00,280 --> 02:22:04,280 Speaker 2: focal point, so there's always been an investment, but just 2708 02:22:04,560 --> 02:22:07,000 Speaker 2: you don't pick it right. And now you've got the 2709 02:22:07,120 --> 02:22:09,560 Speaker 2: front offices protested. I think a little bit too much 2710 02:22:09,640 --> 02:22:12,240 Speaker 2: to where now everybody's mad at him. Likewise, in Green Bay, 2711 02:22:12,840 --> 02:22:14,879 Speaker 2: they'd watched what happened when they had a good start 2712 02:22:14,920 --> 02:22:17,480 Speaker 2: when Hunley had to come in for Aaron Rodgers to 2713 02:22:17,520 --> 02:22:21,720 Speaker 2: what looked like a pretty good season really disappeared pretty fast. 2714 02:22:22,040 --> 02:22:25,800 Speaker 2: And once the guy starts crying about potentially retiring, I'm 2715 02:22:25,840 --> 02:22:28,880 Speaker 2: sorry I threw the pejorative crying in there. Once he 2716 02:22:29,040 --> 02:22:33,440 Speaker 2: started discussing openly in the same vein as Ben Roethlisberger 2717 02:22:33,760 --> 02:22:37,720 Speaker 2: in Pittsburgh before him, and Brett Farv in Green Bay 2718 02:22:37,840 --> 02:22:40,400 Speaker 2: before him, that you may think about retiring, and you're 2719 02:22:40,440 --> 02:22:42,560 Speaker 2: in your late thirties, you know you've been playing this 2720 02:22:42,680 --> 02:22:45,520 Speaker 2: game quite a minute. That there are many guys that 2721 02:22:45,600 --> 02:22:49,280 Speaker 2: have had great success late, Tom Brady, Drew Brees, and 2722 02:22:49,320 --> 02:22:51,879 Speaker 2: even Drew Brees couldn't throw a ball past ten yards 2723 02:22:52,240 --> 02:22:56,039 Speaker 2: his final season. Brady, whatever you think of him, still 2724 02:22:56,120 --> 02:23:00,040 Speaker 2: upper tier in terms of quarterback runs. Most other he 2725 02:23:00,120 --> 02:23:03,600 Speaker 2: does that tail was pretty fast in terms of a crash. 2726 02:23:03,959 --> 02:23:08,760 Speaker 2: So between injuries and the threat of retirement, Yeah, you 2727 02:23:08,879 --> 02:23:10,600 Speaker 2: needed to go find a guy that would be the 2728 02:23:10,680 --> 02:23:12,800 Speaker 2: ara parent. Whether he liked it or. 2729 02:23:12,840 --> 02:23:15,920 Speaker 3: Not, yes, yes, And that gets lost in and usually 2730 02:23:16,000 --> 02:23:19,600 Speaker 3: what makes Hacker fans so mad over the pick was 2731 02:23:20,280 --> 02:23:23,120 Speaker 3: they felt that that one player, that first round pick 2732 02:23:23,200 --> 02:23:25,280 Speaker 3: could have been the difference of them making a super 2733 02:23:25,360 --> 02:23:27,960 Speaker 3: Bowl or not. And we'll never know the answer to that. 2734 02:23:28,120 --> 02:23:31,600 Speaker 3: I don't believe that is the case, but they were 2735 02:23:31,600 --> 02:23:35,400 Speaker 3: getting zero production from someone. By the way, the Seahawks 2736 02:23:35,440 --> 02:23:37,800 Speaker 3: have made first round picks in that similar spot and 2737 02:23:37,800 --> 02:23:40,800 Speaker 3: they have gotten zero basically from the player. So there's 2738 02:23:40,840 --> 02:23:42,600 Speaker 3: no guarantee that whoever they would have taken in that 2739 02:23:42,680 --> 02:23:44,800 Speaker 3: spot would have helped them get to where they wanted to. 2740 02:23:45,480 --> 02:23:48,680 Speaker 3: The other portion of it, Mike, is why I like 2741 02:23:48,800 --> 02:23:52,240 Speaker 3: the pick was that there was no guarantee when you 2742 02:23:52,360 --> 02:23:55,520 Speaker 3: pick him at twenty six that he was going to 2743 02:23:55,560 --> 02:23:58,039 Speaker 3: be a starter. Look at we don't even I mean 2744 02:23:58,280 --> 02:24:00,400 Speaker 3: we were ready to move on guys from the ten, 2745 02:24:00,720 --> 02:24:03,880 Speaker 3: you know, after a year or two. Yeah, so this 2746 02:24:04,000 --> 02:24:06,080 Speaker 3: is late first round pick, and sometimes you make these 2747 02:24:06,120 --> 02:24:09,119 Speaker 3: picks to guess what have the extra year where then 2748 02:24:09,440 --> 02:24:13,240 Speaker 3: maybe you can trade the quarterback. If Aaron Rodgers was 2749 02:24:13,360 --> 02:24:15,320 Speaker 3: all in and good, you know, there could have been 2750 02:24:15,800 --> 02:24:19,240 Speaker 3: a scenario where maybe green Bay shops Jordan Love instead 2751 02:24:19,280 --> 02:24:21,840 Speaker 3: because Rogers is like, hey, I'm I'm all in on this. 2752 02:24:21,959 --> 02:24:24,480 Speaker 3: So like all of those things could have made sense. 2753 02:24:24,560 --> 02:24:28,720 Speaker 3: But it's the not going, you know, not taking a 2754 02:24:28,760 --> 02:24:31,320 Speaker 3: player when you were so close to the window of 2755 02:24:31,840 --> 02:24:34,000 Speaker 3: maybe winning a Super Bowl that really gets green Bay 2756 02:24:34,360 --> 02:24:35,640 Speaker 3: you know, fans riled up. 2757 02:24:35,720 --> 02:24:37,600 Speaker 2: Now. I do have a bottle of champagne that's been 2758 02:24:37,680 --> 02:24:41,760 Speaker 2: chilling ever since the Aaron Rodgers leaving Green Bay talk began, 2759 02:24:42,920 --> 02:24:45,600 Speaker 2: just so I could say goodbye to that thirty years 2760 02:24:45,640 --> 02:24:48,760 Speaker 2: of my life between him and Brett Favre. Yeah, well, 2761 02:24:49,240 --> 02:24:50,880 Speaker 2: Jordan Love will probably come in to be a pro 2762 02:24:51,000 --> 02:24:55,680 Speaker 2: bowler and MVP candidate within three years anyway, So it'll 2763 02:24:55,800 --> 02:24:57,440 Speaker 2: just be more of the same misery for me. Like 2764 02:24:57,480 --> 02:25:01,480 Speaker 2: I'm a fatalist, I'm a Chicago sports fan, except the Cubs. 2765 02:25:02,080 --> 02:25:04,840 Speaker 3: And Packer fans. They you know, they just wanted Brandon Nayuk, 2766 02:25:05,320 --> 02:25:08,280 Speaker 3: That's all that they wanted, and instead they got Jordan Love. 2767 02:25:08,879 --> 02:25:11,320 Speaker 2: Oh well, do you want to play a violin for no? 2768 02:25:11,440 --> 02:25:11,840 Speaker 3: That's all right. 2769 02:25:11,879 --> 02:25:15,120 Speaker 2: That's he's Dan Byrom, Mike Carmen here, Fox Sports Sunday, 2770 02:25:15,160 --> 02:25:18,160 Speaker 2: Fox Sports Radio at dan Byer on Fox at Buyer 2771 02:25:18,360 --> 02:25:22,480 Speaker 2: Talk on TikTok find me over at Swollen Dome. And 2772 02:25:22,600 --> 02:25:26,119 Speaker 2: that's most handles except the TikTok world, where it's harmon rants. 2773 02:25:26,800 --> 02:25:30,280 Speaker 2: And we got our first one up today.

And I 2861 02:30:01,760 --> 02:30:03,680 Speaker 3: think that they're like, if you're a sports fan, you 2862 02:30:03,760 --> 02:30:06,640 Speaker 3: may say, like they just they just went and bought 2863 02:30:06,760 --> 02:30:09,960 Speaker 3: their championship. They you know, had everybody wants to play 2864 02:30:10,080 --> 02:30:13,120 Speaker 3: with all for all the celebrities, and but it's it's 2865 02:30:13,240 --> 02:30:15,240 Speaker 3: much more than that. It's about the community. It's about 2866 02:30:15,240 --> 02:30:18,880 Speaker 3: the fan base that has gone through so much. And 2867 02:30:18,959 --> 02:30:21,680 Speaker 3: by the way, thank goodness that there were two celebrities 2868 02:30:21,959 --> 02:30:25,000 Speaker 3: that were willing to take on the team and then 2869 02:30:25,200 --> 02:30:28,720 Speaker 3: allow that community and that fan base to have this 2870 02:30:29,000 --> 02:30:32,640 Speaker 3: moment because it has been a long long time since 2871 02:30:32,680 --> 02:30:34,760 Speaker 3: they've been able to be promoted. So all of that 2872 02:30:35,040 --> 02:30:38,920 Speaker 3: was absolute great greatness and it should not be should 2873 02:30:38,959 --> 02:30:42,000 Speaker 3: not be poo pooed because it's some Hollywood stuff. It's 2874 02:30:42,000 --> 02:30:45,520 Speaker 3: actually amazing. You would if you were your favorite team, 2875 02:30:45,640 --> 02:30:48,000 Speaker 3: you would want your owners to do the exact same thing. 2876 02:30:48,160 --> 02:30:48,640 Speaker 1: But we we. 2877 02:30:48,720 --> 02:30:50,760 Speaker 2: Celebrated any time an owner comes in and wants to 2878 02:30:50,760 --> 02:30:54,240 Speaker 2: spend money right and put a change in a culture, 2879 02:30:54,800 --> 02:30:55,760 Speaker 2: change to their team. 2880 02:30:55,959 --> 02:30:56,080 Speaker 3: Right. 2881 02:30:56,120 --> 02:30:58,400 Speaker 2: You may not like the fact that Steve Cohen wants 2882 02:30:58,440 --> 02:31:01,160 Speaker 2: to buy anything that's good in major League Baseball. But 2883 02:31:01,200 --> 02:31:03,440 Speaker 2: it's good for the sport. Yes, right, it's good for 2884 02:31:03,520 --> 02:31:05,120 Speaker 2: the sport that you inject that. You may not like 2885 02:31:05,240 --> 02:31:07,920 Speaker 2: Mark Cuban and he's done some questionable things and made 2886 02:31:07,959 --> 02:31:10,720 Speaker 2: some really questionable decisions of how he's run the Mavericks, 2887 02:31:11,280 --> 02:31:15,000 Speaker 2: but the idea is he's desperate to win. Yes, it's 2888 02:31:15,280 --> 02:31:19,360 Speaker 2: desperation for relevancy on a whole other level, but for 2889 02:31:19,560 --> 02:31:22,640 Speaker 2: the Mavericks, it's about winning. When Steve Balmer bought the Clippers, 2890 02:31:23,520 --> 02:31:25,600 Speaker 2: yeah you could say it was a novelty thing, but 2891 02:31:25,640 --> 02:31:28,640 Speaker 2: he spent two billion dollars. People thought he was nuts. 2892 02:31:28,680 --> 02:31:30,920 Speaker 2: And now what's the valuation if it goes back on 2893 02:31:31,000 --> 02:31:34,000 Speaker 2: the market today four times that you saw it. Phoenix 2894 02:31:34,160 --> 02:31:36,680 Speaker 2: just sold for Brian out loud and for these guys 2895 02:31:36,720 --> 02:31:39,200 Speaker 2: to come in and we talk about it a lot 2896 02:31:39,320 --> 02:31:43,240 Speaker 2: that community aspect, and it's really even on a whole 2897 02:31:43,320 --> 02:31:45,800 Speaker 2: other level here as you watched during the first season 2898 02:31:45,879 --> 02:31:49,440 Speaker 2: of that program, this is fifteen years, yes, to move 2899 02:31:49,520 --> 02:31:54,520 Speaker 2: up this level. So Hollywood money, tiktoc whatever, it doesn't matter. 2900 02:31:54,959 --> 02:31:58,240 Speaker 2: Like it's a community that's bound together by this and 2901 02:31:58,320 --> 02:32:01,160 Speaker 2: we see this in all these other sports where you 2902 02:32:01,280 --> 02:32:03,960 Speaker 2: have that sense of community as much as I can 2903 02:32:04,040 --> 02:32:06,720 Speaker 2: mock raiter nations. They lead into each other. 2904 02:32:06,920 --> 02:32:11,520 Speaker 3: I don't know Ryan Reynolds have met him once and 2905 02:32:11,920 --> 02:32:15,240 Speaker 3: that was it. I don't know Rob mcelaney, but they 2906 02:32:15,320 --> 02:32:17,160 Speaker 3: seem like great guys. But I will add on to 2907 02:32:17,240 --> 02:32:20,480 Speaker 3: that and say they know what to say, like even 2908 02:32:20,560 --> 02:32:24,800 Speaker 3: in post match press conferences, media wants to talk to them, 2909 02:32:25,520 --> 02:32:28,680 Speaker 3: and what they've done in understanding their roles is they 2910 02:32:28,720 --> 02:32:31,840 Speaker 3: have spoken. But they've also said, like even on the 2911 02:32:31,879 --> 02:32:34,800 Speaker 3: promotion yesterday Knotts Counties, the other club that was so 2912 02:32:34,959 --> 02:32:36,560 Speaker 3: close and now Knotts County is going to have to 2913 02:32:36,640 --> 02:32:40,280 Speaker 3: go through the playoffs to try to get promoted. They 2914 02:32:40,440 --> 02:32:43,879 Speaker 3: recognized how good their season was. They played a club 2915 02:32:44,120 --> 02:32:47,840 Speaker 3: this past week that has ended up being relegated and 2916 02:32:47,959 --> 02:32:51,160 Speaker 3: in the you know, the euphora euphoria of their win, 2917 02:32:51,840 --> 02:32:54,080 Speaker 3: they also recognize, you know, like the k there was 2918 02:32:54,080 --> 02:32:56,160 Speaker 3: a tweet center and I think by Ryan Reynolds that 2919 02:32:56,320 --> 02:32:58,320 Speaker 3: was like, hey, we you know, tip of the cap 2920 02:32:58,400 --> 02:33:00,400 Speaker 3: to that club. I know it hurts for theirs to 2921 02:33:00,480 --> 02:33:03,199 Speaker 3: be you know, relegated, Like they get it, like they 2922 02:33:03,360 --> 02:33:05,320 Speaker 3: really really get it. And that's all that you can ask. 2923 02:33:05,800 --> 02:33:08,360 Speaker 2: That's it. So look forward to season two of the 2924 02:33:08,600 --> 02:33:12,000 Speaker 2: show and the stories behind the stories and the games 2925 02:33:12,080 --> 02:33:14,560 Speaker 2: and matches. Season one is worth a look see if 2926 02:33:14,600 --> 02:33:16,480 Speaker 2: you haven't done it, even if you're not the biggest 2927 02:33:16,520 --> 02:33:20,240 Speaker 2: soccer fan. Everybody loves an underdog story and things about 2928 02:33:21,440 --> 02:33:25,080 Speaker 2: learn about other people, other cultures and what makes them tick. 2929 02:33:25,240 --> 02:33:29,400 Speaker 2: It's it's a good little human interest kind of thing. 2930 02:33:29,480 --> 02:33:31,640 Speaker 2: The other story I wanted to end with Dan. This 2931 02:33:31,760 --> 02:33:34,560 Speaker 2: one gets interesting because in our business we keep joking 2932 02:33:34,879 --> 02:33:37,160 Speaker 2: that if I do enough of the words from the dictionary, 2933 02:33:37,160 --> 02:33:40,200 Speaker 2: I could be replaced by AI. Evidently there was a 2934 02:33:40,480 --> 02:33:45,800 Speaker 2: fake comedy special that used Tom Brady's likeness by Will 2935 02:33:45,920 --> 02:33:50,160 Speaker 2: Sasso and Chad Colkin on something they do called duds 2936 02:33:50,160 --> 02:33:55,000 Speaker 2: e their podcast.
