But in the meantime, we've got a racous, fun, 19 00:01:06,959 --> 00:01:11,000 Speaker 2: jam packed show for you tonight. We're gonna cover it all. 20 00:01:11,680 --> 00:01:14,600 Speaker 2: We've got just a little bit of about everything, some 21 00:01:14,720 --> 00:01:19,679 Speaker 2: march madness, stuff, some NBA stuff. We've got some Pete 22 00:01:19,720 --> 00:01:23,120 Speaker 2: Rose stuff. I gotta tell you, I am really I 23 00:01:23,120 --> 00:01:26,080 Speaker 2: always do, because the callers just kill it at midnight 24 00:01:26,319 --> 00:01:28,200 Speaker 2: from where I sit. An hour from now, it'll be 25 00:01:28,959 --> 00:01:35,840 Speaker 2: midnight twelve midnight Pacific time, literally and figuratively from your 26 00:01:37,080 --> 00:01:42,240 Speaker 2: sitting most likely, but perhaps literally as well. But you'll 27 00:01:42,240 --> 00:01:43,640 Speaker 2: have the last word. That's what we call it. The 28 00:01:43,680 --> 00:01:46,000 Speaker 2: midnight hour eight seven, seven, nine to nine on Fox. 29 00:01:46,600 --> 00:01:50,000 Speaker 2: Here's here's a spoiler alert. Might have a little discussion 30 00:01:49,960 --> 00:01:51,880 Speaker 2: to night about Steven A. Smith. I was already going 31 00:01:51,920 --> 00:01:54,400 Speaker 2: to he's a one hundred million dollar man, and by 32 00:01:54,440 --> 00:01:56,440 Speaker 2: the way, spoiler alert, I think he's worth it, and 33 00:01:56,480 --> 00:01:59,080 Speaker 2: I'll explain why later. But then he had the little 34 00:01:59,080 --> 00:02:01,600 Speaker 2: tet of tet with Lebron on you know that Lebron 35 00:02:02,480 --> 00:02:04,240 Speaker 2: he's the one who told us he's the goat and 36 00:02:04,280 --> 00:02:07,200 Speaker 2: he's the king, refers to himself as the king. Or 37 00:02:07,400 --> 00:02:12,040 Speaker 2: is he the petulant, sensitive, insecure, thin skin, self serving 38 00:02:12,120 --> 00:02:15,000 Speaker 2: Lebron who decided to have a little on court meeting 39 00:02:15,040 --> 00:02:18,720 Speaker 2: with Stephen A. Smith to discuss a certain player making 40 00:02:18,760 --> 00:02:22,160 Speaker 2: seven million dollars in the NBA. Okay, just a little 41 00:02:22,200 --> 00:02:24,120 Speaker 2: spoiler and by the way, Aaron Rodgers hasn't found a 42 00:02:24,160 --> 00:02:30,360 Speaker 2: home yet. This might be troubling. And how about Miles Garrett. 43 00:02:30,400 --> 00:02:32,120 Speaker 2: He wants a meeting with the boss, the Big Boss. 44 00:02:32,320 --> 00:02:35,800 Speaker 2: He wants to usurp the chain of command. You can't 45 00:02:35,840 --> 00:02:39,160 Speaker 2: do that. Jimmy Hasnam did the right thing because it 46 00:02:39,280 --> 00:02:42,920 Speaker 2: sets a precedent. There's protocol. But I digress. We're going 47 00:02:43,000 --> 00:02:45,239 Speaker 2: to get to all that stuff and more, and I 48 00:02:45,280 --> 00:02:47,160 Speaker 2: can't wait to hear what the callers have to say. 49 00:02:47,200 --> 00:02:49,760 Speaker 2: But the headlines of the week never seems to fail, 50 00:02:50,320 --> 00:02:51,920 Speaker 2: even though we got a lot of stuff with our 51 00:02:51,960 --> 00:02:54,280 Speaker 2: man Mark Medino be coming up in about fifteen minutes. 52 00:02:54,840 --> 00:02:57,800 Speaker 2: We start with football because we have to. It's the law. 53 00:02:58,800 --> 00:03:02,600 Speaker 2: The biggest sports story this week are still, in my view, 54 00:03:02,960 --> 00:03:05,400 Speaker 2: having to do with the NFL fresh out of the 55 00:03:05,440 --> 00:03:09,720 Speaker 2: combine and Monday, the legal tampering period starts. Just like that, 56 00:03:09,800 --> 00:03:14,760 Speaker 2: the Raiders trade for Gino Smith. He's reunited with Pete Carroll. Gino, Hey, 57 00:03:15,240 --> 00:03:17,240 Speaker 2: they wrote me up, but I ain't right back. Three 58 00:03:17,280 --> 00:03:20,480 Speaker 2: winning seasons, ten wins last year, Raiders look like they're 59 00:03:20,480 --> 00:03:22,880 Speaker 2: at least going to try to win right now. What 60 00:03:22,919 --> 00:03:25,760 Speaker 2: does that do to Aaron Rodgers. Well, I tell you 61 00:03:25,800 --> 00:03:28,160 Speaker 2: that the noos is tightening a little bit. By the way, 62 00:03:28,720 --> 00:03:31,480 Speaker 2: maybe this wasn't shocking, although gosh, he just seems like 63 00:03:31,520 --> 00:03:35,880 Speaker 2: this guy just left Ohio State. The Chargers released Joey 64 00:03:35,960 --> 00:03:39,520 Speaker 2: Bosa earlier this week, entering one of the best tenders 65 00:03:39,560 --> 00:03:44,120 Speaker 2: in Charger franchise history. Nine seasons, Bosa had seventy two sacks, 66 00:03:44,160 --> 00:03:47,320 Speaker 2: made five Pro Bowls. But the move saves the Chargers 67 00:03:47,320 --> 00:03:51,000 Speaker 2: and the unfortunate, injury prone Joey Bossa about twenty five 68 00:03:51,040 --> 00:03:55,400 Speaker 2: million dollars in cap space. Meanwhile, Seattle, well, Gino Smith 69 00:03:55,560 --> 00:03:58,560 Speaker 2: wasn't the only one to bowlt town. Dk Metcalf he 70 00:03:58,640 --> 00:04:03,560 Speaker 2: wants to trade. He's requesting trade after the team apparently 71 00:04:03,600 --> 00:04:07,200 Speaker 2: could not come close to meeting on his contract extension demands. 72 00:04:07,600 --> 00:04:11,240 Speaker 2: And by the way, Negotia's negotiations are already underway with suitors. 73 00:04:11,320 --> 00:04:15,040 Speaker 2: There should be plenty because Metcalf is a high caliber player. 74 00:04:15,080 --> 00:04:21,920 Speaker 2: He's only twenty seven. Seattle also loses Tyler Locket Wow, Vegas, 75 00:04:21,960 --> 00:04:26,080 Speaker 2: they weren't done. Just just before getting Gino Smith, they 76 00:04:26,160 --> 00:04:29,360 Speaker 2: locked up Max Crosby. He's now the highest paid non 77 00:04:29,440 --> 00:04:32,240 Speaker 2: quarterback in NFL history. A three year, one hundred and 78 00:04:32,279 --> 00:04:35,240 Speaker 2: six million dollar extension ninety one million of that guarantee. 79 00:04:35,520 --> 00:04:38,440 Speaker 2: Crosby's probably worth the money, and the Raiders new regime 80 00:04:38,560 --> 00:04:41,280 Speaker 2: views him as a centerpiece, so it's in a sense 81 00:04:41,320 --> 00:04:44,080 Speaker 2: this smart move is a politically smart move and Crosby, 82 00:04:44,080 --> 00:04:47,599 Speaker 2: hopefully he'll return healthy Philadelphia. I don't know how Howie 83 00:04:47,680 --> 00:04:50,839 Speaker 2: Roseman does it. He's a genius. They not only get 84 00:04:50,920 --> 00:04:53,480 Speaker 2: Saquon Barkley locked up two years forty one point two 85 00:04:53,520 --> 00:04:56,839 Speaker 2: million and extension, but they get linebacker Zach Bond also 86 00:04:57,200 --> 00:05:00,200 Speaker 2: three years fifty one mil. The Super Bowl champs in 87 00:05:00,240 --> 00:05:04,360 Speaker 2: their strength, Barkley's pay day is not surprising, but retaining Bond, 88 00:05:04,560 --> 00:05:08,640 Speaker 2: who's arguably the best linebacker in the market who people 89 00:05:08,680 --> 00:05:11,600 Speaker 2: all said the Eagles could afford, that's a coup. By 90 00:05:11,600 --> 00:05:14,360 Speaker 2: the way, another trade kind of under the radar, chief 91 00:05:14,440 --> 00:05:17,039 Speaker 2: center guard Joe Tuna to Chicago for a fourth round pick. 92 00:05:17,360 --> 00:05:20,000 Speaker 2: He's a four times Super Bowl champion, in the first 93 00:05:20,000 --> 00:05:23,680 Speaker 2: team All Pro selection last two season, and he did 94 00:05:23,680 --> 00:05:25,680 Speaker 2: not have a good game in the Super Bowl. But 95 00:05:25,760 --> 00:05:28,160 Speaker 2: give the Bears an aid for this. He'll step into 96 00:05:28,240 --> 00:05:33,040 Speaker 2: Chicago and he'll protect Caleb. By the way, Cincinnati The 97 00:05:33,080 --> 00:05:36,080 Speaker 2: Bengals still intend to sign both Jamar Chase and t 98 00:05:36,240 --> 00:05:39,640 Speaker 2: Higgins to long term beals or but they do remain 99 00:05:39,680 --> 00:05:43,240 Speaker 2: far apart. We'll see what happens there. The legal tampering 100 00:05:43,279 --> 00:05:47,040 Speaker 2: period starts Monday. But that's his storyline hanging over our heads. 101 00:05:47,080 --> 00:05:49,040 Speaker 2: I'm going to tell you another one. So more of 102 00:05:49,080 --> 00:05:52,800 Speaker 2: this guy talks, the less I like him. I think 103 00:05:52,880 --> 00:05:55,520 Speaker 2: Shudor Sanders has been a sensational story. I think he's 104 00:05:55,520 --> 00:06:00,000 Speaker 2: a good quarterback. Now he had to talk this past week, 105 00:06:00,000 --> 00:06:03,240 Speaker 2: which is seemingly what he does best. Right now, you 106 00:06:03,320 --> 00:06:07,400 Speaker 2: know you all tried to make me make my stock drop? 107 00:06:07,839 --> 00:06:09,599 Speaker 2: Why would we do that? Why would we give to 108 00:06:09,800 --> 00:06:13,119 Speaker 2: a horses patuit? If your stock drops? Hold that thought, 109 00:06:13,680 --> 00:06:15,679 Speaker 2: we'll come back to it. I'll tell you whose stock 110 00:06:15,760 --> 00:06:19,520 Speaker 2: improved at the Combine. Boise State running back Ashton Genty 111 00:06:19,680 --> 00:06:23,640 Speaker 2: is a stellar individual. According to some draft wop experts, 112 00:06:23,920 --> 00:06:27,240 Speaker 2: He's moved up fourteen spots now. No first round prospect 113 00:06:27,720 --> 00:06:31,400 Speaker 2: improved more than him. Remember, Genty was the runner up 114 00:06:31,400 --> 00:06:37,200 Speaker 2: in the Heisman to Travis Hunter, and there are there 115 00:06:37,279 --> 00:06:40,200 Speaker 2: is real conversation. You could see the Raiders drafting Ashton 116 00:06:40,200 --> 00:06:45,679 Speaker 2: Genty at number six overall. One NFL executive who was unnamed, said, quote, 117 00:06:46,040 --> 00:06:49,760 Speaker 2: adding genty to Chip Kelly's offense would vastly upgrade a 118 00:06:49,839 --> 00:06:52,440 Speaker 2: unit lacking an identity. Well, maybe you'd have had that 119 00:06:52,520 --> 00:06:56,240 Speaker 2: identity if you let Josh Jacobs go. The Raiders only 120 00:06:56,320 --> 00:06:59,080 Speaker 2: ran for thirteen and fifty seven yards the entire season 121 00:06:59,160 --> 00:07:01,800 Speaker 2: last year. That's his second worst mark in the last 122 00:07:02,120 --> 00:07:06,000 Speaker 2: six years. Offensive lineman, they do God's work. Will Campbell 123 00:07:06,000 --> 00:07:09,200 Speaker 2: of LSU he moved up eight spots. It looks like 124 00:07:09,240 --> 00:07:12,679 Speaker 2: the Jaguars may nab him at number five. Another offensive tackle, 125 00:07:12,800 --> 00:07:18,600 Speaker 2: Josh Simmons, he dropped nineteen spots. That hurt in terms 126 00:07:18,680 --> 00:07:23,040 Speaker 2: of you know, these network executives. Will Johnson somehow dropped 127 00:07:23,360 --> 00:07:28,000 Speaker 2: cornerback out of Michigan. They claim he dropped twelve spots. Okay, why, 128 00:07:28,120 --> 00:07:30,720 Speaker 2: I don't know. They say he's got strong eyes, smooth feet, 129 00:07:30,800 --> 00:07:36,320 Speaker 2: coverage IQ. Well, but he's tumbling why apparently injury concerns. 130 00:07:37,240 --> 00:07:40,160 Speaker 2: We'll have to keep an eye on that. But back 131 00:07:40,200 --> 00:07:45,200 Speaker 2: to the legend, Shudor Sanders according to these draft walks 132 00:07:45,200 --> 00:07:46,920 Speaker 2: and why not we have to talk about the shows tonight. 133 00:07:46,960 --> 00:07:51,000 Speaker 2: As Arnie likes to say, Shudor Sanders, according to some people, 134 00:07:51,080 --> 00:07:53,600 Speaker 2: have and may have dropped as many as fifteen spots. 135 00:07:53,760 --> 00:07:55,720 Speaker 2: Now make a liar out of me. I don't care. 136 00:07:56,600 --> 00:07:59,400 Speaker 2: I think cam Woord may go number one. If Cleveland's 137 00:07:59,400 --> 00:08:03,840 Speaker 2: crazy enough to draft him in the top five, you're crazy, Okay. 138 00:08:04,360 --> 00:08:06,360 Speaker 2: But they're saying he could drop as far as twenty one. 139 00:08:06,480 --> 00:08:08,440 Speaker 2: Is at the end of the world. No, Dan Marino 140 00:08:08,520 --> 00:08:11,040 Speaker 2: dropped aarreon Rodgers drop. Lots of great quarterbacks drop. I 141 00:08:11,040 --> 00:08:13,160 Speaker 2: can give you a list of star quarterbacks who were 142 00:08:13,280 --> 00:08:16,160 Speaker 2: drafted to the second round. But they're saying he could 143 00:08:16,280 --> 00:08:19,360 Speaker 2: drop to Pittsburgh. Again, this is all theoretical at number 144 00:08:19,400 --> 00:08:22,880 Speaker 2: twenty one. Why quote Mike Tomlin is a fan of 145 00:08:22,920 --> 00:08:28,440 Speaker 2: players with NFL bloodlines. All right, Sanders is a paradox. Okay, 146 00:08:29,120 --> 00:08:33,000 Speaker 2: here's the deal. He holds onto the ball forever. He's 147 00:08:33,040 --> 00:08:35,200 Speaker 2: like a Madden player trying to make a big play. 148 00:08:35,480 --> 00:08:39,479 Speaker 2: At Colorado, he lost on average thirty four yards sackyards 149 00:08:39,480 --> 00:08:42,640 Speaker 2: per game. That's by far the country's most I know 150 00:08:42,960 --> 00:08:46,400 Speaker 2: you're gonna tell me Colorado's offensive line was bad, but 151 00:08:46,480 --> 00:08:49,240 Speaker 2: it wasn't that bad. But give it up as completion 152 00:08:49,360 --> 00:08:51,640 Speaker 2: percentage of seventy one point eight. He is the highest 153 00:08:51,640 --> 00:08:55,719 Speaker 2: in FBS history. So which is he does he take 154 00:08:55,760 --> 00:08:57,480 Speaker 2: a sack so he doesn't have to throw an interception 155 00:08:58,720 --> 00:09:01,880 Speaker 2: or any complete pats Usually once he throws the ball, 156 00:09:01,920 --> 00:09:05,160 Speaker 2: good things kind of happen. The thought is, is one 157 00:09:05,240 --> 00:09:08,440 Speaker 2: team going to try to talk themselves into him into 158 00:09:08,520 --> 00:09:12,480 Speaker 2: round one and make a splashy play. I'm on record, 159 00:09:12,559 --> 00:09:15,320 Speaker 2: I no longer think he grades as a first round 160 00:09:15,360 --> 00:09:17,600 Speaker 2: draft choice. I'm not saying he's not going to get 161 00:09:17,600 --> 00:09:20,280 Speaker 2: into the NFL. He may win five Super Bowls. Fine, 162 00:09:20,360 --> 00:09:22,600 Speaker 2: just do it. Don't tell me, show me you think 163 00:09:22,640 --> 00:09:25,719 Speaker 2: I'm an idiot, Get on the field, do it. But 164 00:09:26,200 --> 00:09:28,680 Speaker 2: to me, does not have that one elite tool that 165 00:09:28,800 --> 00:09:31,160 Speaker 2: top ten players have. He does not have that one 166 00:09:31,200 --> 00:09:34,880 Speaker 2: superhuman power. All right, what does the tape show? His 167 00:09:34,960 --> 00:09:38,520 Speaker 2: biggest strength is accuracy? All right? That was not a fluke. 168 00:09:38,840 --> 00:09:42,520 Speaker 2: He does excel at reading coverages, making progressions, attack in 169 00:09:42,559 --> 00:09:44,640 Speaker 2: the middle of the field. He's the son of an 170 00:09:44,720 --> 00:09:48,440 Speaker 2: NFL player. He's a tough athlete, an above average athlete, 171 00:09:48,720 --> 00:09:52,080 Speaker 2: seemingly a good leader. Not crazy about the rolex rotters 172 00:09:52,080 --> 00:09:54,000 Speaker 2: and the rules. Royce is but that's just how he 173 00:09:54,040 --> 00:09:58,319 Speaker 2: wants to roll. But I think his ceiling is limited. Okay, 174 00:09:58,720 --> 00:10:01,280 Speaker 2: he doesn't really fit the mo old schadrs. Sanders does 175 00:10:01,320 --> 00:10:05,200 Speaker 2: not really fit the mold of quarterbacks picked in the 176 00:10:05,200 --> 00:10:08,360 Speaker 2: first round. In recent years, teams are looking for plus 177 00:10:08,400 --> 00:10:12,240 Speaker 2: traits at every position. They're looking for the next Lamar Jackson, 178 00:10:12,760 --> 00:10:17,000 Speaker 2: Justin Herbert Josh Allen. Yes, he's a classic pocket passer, 179 00:10:17,720 --> 00:10:21,000 Speaker 2: but he does have a limited physical skill set. That's 180 00:10:21,040 --> 00:10:23,440 Speaker 2: the truth. When you put him on the field with 181 00:10:23,440 --> 00:10:26,040 Speaker 2: the NFL athletes, doesn't mean he doesn't have a place 182 00:10:26,040 --> 00:10:28,560 Speaker 2: in the league. He has good traits. You've heard me 183 00:10:28,559 --> 00:10:31,880 Speaker 2: say it a thousand times. Quarterback in the NFL is 184 00:10:31,880 --> 00:10:34,480 Speaker 2: a position you play with your eyes. You receive the ball, 185 00:10:34,480 --> 00:10:37,319 Speaker 2: you make mental snapshots, you execute. He could read a defense. 186 00:10:37,760 --> 00:10:41,160 Speaker 2: His accuracy's pretty good. But if you're talking to anonymous 187 00:10:41,200 --> 00:10:44,079 Speaker 2: scouts who are willing to talk off the record, here's 188 00:10:44,080 --> 00:10:47,600 Speaker 2: what I hear. Frankly, he lacks arm strength. When you're 189 00:10:47,640 --> 00:10:51,079 Speaker 2: talking about big time arm strength the NFL stars have. 190 00:10:51,240 --> 00:10:53,000 Speaker 2: If he's laid on a read, it's going to be 191 00:10:53,040 --> 00:10:57,319 Speaker 2: a difficult completion because his passes don't arrive fast enough. 192 00:10:57,559 --> 00:11:01,080 Speaker 2: He rarely completes tight window throw because he doesn't have 193 00:11:01,120 --> 00:11:03,960 Speaker 2: the velocity in zip and that kind of stuff to 194 00:11:04,000 --> 00:11:06,320 Speaker 2: throw on a straight line. His passes don't have the 195 00:11:06,360 --> 00:11:09,640 Speaker 2: pace to hit receivers perfectly and stride. Frankly, Sanders under 196 00:11:09,640 --> 00:11:12,760 Speaker 2: threw a lot of passes last year, and the irony is, 197 00:11:13,120 --> 00:11:17,000 Speaker 2: you know he's strength his accuracy, but he's not accurate enough. 198 00:11:17,280 --> 00:11:20,480 Speaker 2: Believe it or not, Shodurse. Sanders has a stronger arm 199 00:11:20,520 --> 00:11:25,560 Speaker 2: than say Joe Montana had, but Montana's passes were so 200 00:11:25,800 --> 00:11:29,560 Speaker 2: pinpoint throwing receivers open. He made up for it again. 201 00:11:30,200 --> 00:11:32,680 Speaker 2: Shoe Door is an accurate passer, but it's not a 202 00:11:32,760 --> 00:11:36,320 Speaker 2: lead accuracy and it's affected when he's pressured. If he 203 00:11:36,320 --> 00:11:39,160 Speaker 2: doesn't have a solid base, he doesn't generate enough power 204 00:11:39,160 --> 00:11:43,439 Speaker 2: to a throw when he's throwing off platform. Good processor, 205 00:11:43,679 --> 00:11:46,720 Speaker 2: but not strong enough, not great pocket presence. This is 206 00:11:46,720 --> 00:11:49,480 Speaker 2: what the scouts are saying when you watch the tape. 207 00:11:49,880 --> 00:11:52,800 Speaker 2: Sanders is impressive with his willingness to absorb a hit 208 00:11:53,400 --> 00:11:55,120 Speaker 2: and if that's what it took to get a pass out, 209 00:11:55,200 --> 00:11:59,280 Speaker 2: he'd do it. But unfortunately Colorado's offensive line, which wasn't 210 00:11:59,280 --> 00:12:02,840 Speaker 2: great to bailing out to early a lot. Okay, he 211 00:12:02,880 --> 00:12:05,320 Speaker 2: didn't throw the ball beyond the line of scrimwage a lot. 212 00:12:05,360 --> 00:12:07,400 Speaker 2: Did you know that Sanders was only one hundred and 213 00:12:07,440 --> 00:12:09,960 Speaker 2: twelfth in the nation and air yards per throw him 214 00:12:09,960 --> 00:12:12,800 Speaker 2: on qualifying passes and he could have thrown at the 215 00:12:12,800 --> 00:12:15,560 Speaker 2: Shrine Bowl and combining that could have helped to spell 216 00:12:16,000 --> 00:12:19,800 Speaker 2: some of these narratives, but Sander's refused to do either 217 00:12:20,520 --> 00:12:23,280 Speaker 2: best comp believe it or not again, this isn't for me. 218 00:12:23,320 --> 00:12:24,880 Speaker 2: This is a moscow who does this for a living. 219 00:12:24,880 --> 00:12:27,959 Speaker 2: He's been around thirty years. Chad Pennington, He's like a 220 00:12:28,160 --> 00:12:31,240 Speaker 2: version of Chad Pennington, who actually had a very good 221 00:12:31,240 --> 00:12:33,840 Speaker 2: ten year career with the Jets. All right, you put 222 00:12:33,920 --> 00:12:37,120 Speaker 2: him in the right system, he might thrive if he 223 00:12:37,160 --> 00:12:42,000 Speaker 2: didn't remember. Look, he has warning signs, just like Colt McCoy, 224 00:12:42,400 --> 00:12:45,840 Speaker 2: mac Jones, Zach Wilson, Chase Daniel. They were all good 225 00:12:45,920 --> 00:12:50,720 Speaker 2: QB twos in the NFL. None were with worth first 226 00:12:50,800 --> 00:12:54,560 Speaker 2: dround picks. Just my two cents based on the research 227 00:12:54,920 --> 00:12:58,920 Speaker 2: and the notes I've read coming up our man, Mark 228 00:12:58,960 --> 00:13:02,880 Speaker 2: Madeen and medeena man.

Three simple words. 246 00:13:56,120 --> 00:14:01,880 Speaker 2: It's that time. Mark Medina, Medina Magic. We hear him 247 00:14:01,880 --> 00:14:05,720 Speaker 2: every Saturday night now during non football season at eleven 248 00:14:05,800 --> 00:14:07,240 Speaker 2: twenty pm Pacific time. 249 00:14:08,280 --> 00:14:08,600 Speaker 4: Mark. 250 00:14:09,240 --> 00:14:12,240 Speaker 2: As we sign off every week, we say the same thing, 251 00:14:12,800 --> 00:14:15,080 Speaker 2: can't wait what the headlines will bring, And it just 252 00:14:15,240 --> 00:14:18,800 Speaker 2: simply never fails. 253 00:14:17,559 --> 00:14:20,720 Speaker 5: Never fails, And lo and behold, another week goes by 254 00:14:20,800 --> 00:14:23,040 Speaker 5: with the Browny James development huh. 255 00:14:23,120 --> 00:14:24,680 Speaker 2: Well, we're going to get to that in a minute. 256 00:14:25,040 --> 00:14:27,680 Speaker 2: I have my thoughts. I certainly want to get your thoughts. 257 00:14:28,640 --> 00:14:33,359 Speaker 2: But prior to that, Lebron exited the game against the Celtics, 258 00:14:34,400 --> 00:14:37,760 Speaker 2: you know, with an injury Saturday night, and depending on 259 00:14:37,800 --> 00:14:41,880 Speaker 2: who you talk to, you don't know. But somebody I 260 00:14:41,920 --> 00:14:45,240 Speaker 2: trust thinks it could be several weeks. Is that true 261 00:14:45,360 --> 00:14:45,600 Speaker 2: or not? 262 00:14:46,400 --> 00:14:48,960 Speaker 5: Well, we'll see. Lebron James actually a game with talent 263 00:14:49,040 --> 00:14:51,960 Speaker 5: reporters that he doesn't have too much concern. He initially 264 00:14:52,520 --> 00:14:55,600 Speaker 5: had flashbacks when he had that groin injury Christmas Day 265 00:14:56,160 --> 00:15:00,560 Speaker 5: twenty eighteen, first season with the Lakers against the Warrior. Now, 266 00:15:00,880 --> 00:15:02,880 Speaker 5: if that's the case, it would be bad news because 267 00:15:02,920 --> 00:15:06,160 Speaker 5: he missed the next seventeen games after that. But for 268 00:15:06,240 --> 00:15:08,440 Speaker 5: what it's worth, he was adamant, even though he had 269 00:15:08,440 --> 00:15:12,400 Speaker 5: to miss the final six forty four against the Celtics, 270 00:15:12,400 --> 00:15:15,040 Speaker 5: that he feels like it'll get better. But here's the 271 00:15:15,040 --> 00:15:17,200 Speaker 5: bottom line, no one really knows. He'll have a better 272 00:15:17,240 --> 00:15:20,640 Speaker 5: idea tomorrow once testing starts. But even if it's a 273 00:15:20,680 --> 00:15:24,560 Speaker 5: few days, this is a critical juncture because yes, they 274 00:15:24,600 --> 00:15:26,760 Speaker 5: lost the Celtics, but they're a really good team. They 275 00:15:26,760 --> 00:15:29,280 Speaker 5: had won eight in a row. But now they're in 276 00:15:29,280 --> 00:15:31,800 Speaker 5: the lions Den, they're on a long road trip. They 277 00:15:31,800 --> 00:15:34,720 Speaker 5: got six games next eight days, and some of those 278 00:15:34,720 --> 00:15:38,320 Speaker 5: games include games against the Denver No get some Milwaukee Bucks, 279 00:15:38,320 --> 00:15:41,280 Speaker 5: and those are all, you know, measuring stick games. Obviously 280 00:15:41,280 --> 00:15:42,520 Speaker 5: to say the least. 281 00:15:42,960 --> 00:15:46,080 Speaker 2: Well, here's the thing, until they'll do an MRI tomorrow. 282 00:15:46,120 --> 00:15:48,800 Speaker 2: Is that correct? Because if it's softissue, you're not going 283 00:15:48,880 --> 00:15:50,880 Speaker 2: to know anything until you take a look at it 284 00:15:50,920 --> 00:15:54,040 Speaker 2: and move some medical imaging. So is that true that 285 00:15:54,080 --> 00:15:56,440 Speaker 2: they'll do an MRI Sunday or what do do we know? 286 00:15:57,080 --> 00:16:00,320 Speaker 5: Well, don't know specifically if it's MRI, but yeah, they 287 00:16:00,320 --> 00:16:04,080 Speaker 5: don't have Sunday in some shape or format will provide 288 00:16:04,160 --> 00:16:07,760 Speaker 5: clarity on severity of injury and timetable and all that 289 00:16:07,880 --> 00:16:08,560 Speaker 5: fun stuff. 290 00:16:09,400 --> 00:16:11,440 Speaker 2: All right. Prior to that, I was also going to 291 00:16:11,520 --> 00:16:16,880 Speaker 2: mention very quickly the situation in Dallas. Kyrie Irving goes 292 00:16:16,920 --> 00:16:20,120 Speaker 2: down with an ACL. I mean, there's bad luck, and man, 293 00:16:20,160 --> 00:16:23,960 Speaker 2: there's bad luck. Ad was playing like a wild man 294 00:16:24,400 --> 00:16:26,520 Speaker 2: for one half. You saw what happen there a week 295 00:16:26,520 --> 00:16:29,600 Speaker 2: and a half ago. Now Kyrie goes down. Now Mark 296 00:16:29,680 --> 00:16:32,320 Speaker 2: Cuban comes out and makes the statement that they should 297 00:16:32,360 --> 00:16:35,480 Speaker 2: have maybe gotten more back for Luca. What's the move 298 00:16:35,560 --> 00:16:37,240 Speaker 2: inside the four walls in Dallas. 299 00:16:37,520 --> 00:16:41,200 Speaker 5: Oh, it's just crumbling. I mean, ever since Lucas got 300 00:16:41,240 --> 00:16:44,120 Speaker 5: traded almost a month ago, they've gone from a team 301 00:16:44,160 --> 00:16:47,080 Speaker 5: that was trying to get back to the NBA Finals 302 00:16:47,120 --> 00:16:50,600 Speaker 5: that might just be just competing for draft lottery onds 303 00:16:50,640 --> 00:16:54,720 Speaker 5: in May. It is just wild, the wild chain of events, 304 00:16:54,800 --> 00:16:58,360 Speaker 5: and obviously the big game changer is Luka Danchoch. I 305 00:16:58,400 --> 00:17:01,440 Speaker 5: don't think anyone's in to write and anyone's right mind 306 00:17:01,480 --> 00:17:04,840 Speaker 5: unless you're Niko Harrison thought it's a good idea to 307 00:17:04,960 --> 00:17:08,400 Speaker 5: trade Luka Dancich. But to Mark Cuban's point, if you're 308 00:17:08,400 --> 00:17:10,960 Speaker 5: going to go down that path, make sure you get 309 00:17:11,000 --> 00:17:14,440 Speaker 5: a haul in return. And look what they got in return. 310 00:17:14,920 --> 00:17:19,320 Speaker 5: It's all respectable. Anthony Davis was putting himself in the 311 00:17:19,400 --> 00:17:23,679 Speaker 5: defensive Player of the Year conversation. Prior to this latest injury. 312 00:17:23,680 --> 00:17:28,240 Speaker 5: He had been mostly durable. Max Christie great two way talent. 313 00:17:28,880 --> 00:17:31,120 Speaker 5: They got a draft pick, but when you're talking about 314 00:17:31,160 --> 00:17:34,880 Speaker 5: Luka Danco, who's one of the top five players right 315 00:17:34,880 --> 00:17:38,800 Speaker 5: now in the NBA, you got to get another draft 316 00:17:38,800 --> 00:17:43,640 Speaker 5: pick and another solid All Star Haliver player to justify 317 00:17:43,760 --> 00:17:46,080 Speaker 5: this trade. And not only did they do that, not 318 00:17:46,240 --> 00:17:48,600 Speaker 5: do that, but now it's all falling like a house 319 00:17:48,600 --> 00:17:52,320 Speaker 5: of cards with AD's injury, Kyrie's injury. I think the 320 00:17:52,400 --> 00:17:56,080 Speaker 5: thing to keep in mind here, I actually have a 321 00:17:56,119 --> 00:17:58,960 Speaker 5: piece that's coming out tomorrow where I talk to different 322 00:17:58,960 --> 00:18:03,840 Speaker 5: outside doctors for their perspective with Kyrie Irving and Anthony Davis. 323 00:18:05,160 --> 00:18:07,840 Speaker 5: It's not just the fact that Kyrie Irving's out for 324 00:18:07,880 --> 00:18:11,040 Speaker 5: this season. When you're looking at ACL injuries, you know, 325 00:18:11,359 --> 00:18:13,639 Speaker 5: the feedback I was getting from these doctors is that 326 00:18:13,760 --> 00:18:17,240 Speaker 5: the timeline can be anywhere from six to twelve months. 327 00:18:17,280 --> 00:18:19,800 Speaker 5: So if he is going to return, it's not going 328 00:18:19,840 --> 00:18:21,560 Speaker 5: to be at the beginning of that season. It's going 329 00:18:21,600 --> 00:18:24,639 Speaker 5: to be some at some point, you know, in the middle, 330 00:18:24,720 --> 00:18:27,560 Speaker 5: maybe in twenty twenty six. But there's also a chance 331 00:18:27,960 --> 00:18:30,240 Speaker 5: that he also misses all the next season as well, 332 00:18:30,280 --> 00:18:33,240 Speaker 5: because those ACL injuries are no joke. 333 00:18:34,520 --> 00:18:38,400 Speaker 2: Believe men, I'm very very well aware of My daughter 334 00:18:38,400 --> 00:18:41,400 Speaker 2: played division on soccretory Aco three times in the same kneed. 335 00:18:41,560 --> 00:18:44,120 Speaker 5: Oh I'm sorry to hear those anyway. 336 00:18:44,880 --> 00:18:51,320 Speaker 2: One last thing about Dallas mark management can come. They 337 00:18:51,400 --> 00:18:54,840 Speaker 2: had to sign off on this deal before it would happen, 338 00:18:55,320 --> 00:18:58,520 Speaker 2: so they can't really come back. They can, but coming 339 00:18:58,560 --> 00:19:02,040 Speaker 2: back after the fact posthumously in saying well we should 340 00:19:02,040 --> 00:19:05,080 Speaker 2: have gotten more, you know, that falls a little shallow 341 00:19:05,080 --> 00:19:05,280 Speaker 2: to me. 342 00:19:06,280 --> 00:19:08,400 Speaker 5: Yes, I think we have to keep in mind here 343 00:19:08,440 --> 00:19:11,959 Speaker 5: Mark Cuban isn't calling the shots anymore. He sold his 344 00:19:12,040 --> 00:19:15,200 Speaker 5: ownership shares, and while you know he is an advisor, 345 00:19:15,280 --> 00:19:18,280 Speaker 5: we clearly seen that he doesn't have any say in 346 00:19:18,400 --> 00:19:22,520 Speaker 5: basketball matters. If he did, the Luca Docta trade would 347 00:19:22,520 --> 00:19:26,560 Speaker 5: have never happened. So you know, when you're looking at 348 00:19:26,840 --> 00:19:30,720 Speaker 5: who's in charge now, they're the ones that approved it. 349 00:19:31,800 --> 00:19:35,440 Speaker 5: And I think because of that, obviously this is Nico 350 00:19:35,560 --> 00:19:38,719 Speaker 5: Harrison's trade that he has to own him sell, and 351 00:19:38,760 --> 00:19:40,320 Speaker 5: this is going to live with him for better and 352 00:19:40,359 --> 00:19:42,960 Speaker 5: for worse. But in the short term, you know, I 353 00:19:43,040 --> 00:19:46,119 Speaker 5: don't think his job is going anywhere because you know, 354 00:19:46,160 --> 00:19:49,440 Speaker 5: their current ownership groups been on record, you know, defending 355 00:19:49,440 --> 00:19:52,120 Speaker 5: the move. So I think it would be a much 356 00:19:52,160 --> 00:19:55,360 Speaker 5: different tune if they started to getting giving interviews where 357 00:19:55,400 --> 00:19:58,880 Speaker 5: they questioned the deal. Mark Cuban, Yes, his voice matters. 358 00:19:58,960 --> 00:20:03,600 Speaker 5: We obviously know how influential he was, but he doesn't 359 00:20:03,640 --> 00:20:06,160 Speaker 5: have the same voice as he did before with the Mavericks. 360 00:20:06,160 --> 00:20:10,360 Speaker 2: Specifically, fair enough, I had this trade as it were, 361 00:20:10,520 --> 00:20:13,440 Speaker 2: has to it has to have its day in court. 362 00:20:13,680 --> 00:20:17,119 Speaker 2: I would have been extremely curious. A healthy Ad, a 363 00:20:17,160 --> 00:20:20,120 Speaker 2: healthy Kyrie, those two teams get on the floor would 364 00:20:20,119 --> 00:20:22,040 Speaker 2: have made for a very interesting matchup. We don't know 365 00:20:22,040 --> 00:20:25,600 Speaker 2: if they're passed across in the playoffs. We're certainly not 366 00:20:25,640 --> 00:20:27,680 Speaker 2: going to know this year, maybe not even next year. 367 00:20:27,920 --> 00:20:32,080 Speaker 5: Well but yeah, and it's a good point, like they 368 00:20:32,119 --> 00:20:34,480 Speaker 5: are all good players here, but I think that this 369 00:20:34,600 --> 00:20:38,040 Speaker 5: also exposes the fallacy of their thought process. Now, I 370 00:20:38,080 --> 00:20:41,919 Speaker 5: do need to make a distinguishable point here that just 371 00:20:41,960 --> 00:20:44,919 Speaker 5: because Anthony Davis has injury history, all of a sudden 372 00:20:44,920 --> 00:20:47,720 Speaker 5: it was inevitable he was going to get hurt. Well, 373 00:20:47,720 --> 00:20:51,040 Speaker 5: he hadn't been heard in two years Kyrie Irving. There 374 00:20:51,080 --> 00:20:54,000 Speaker 5: was a lot of knee jerk reaction about, Okay, did 375 00:20:54,040 --> 00:20:57,080 Speaker 5: his usage rate contribute to him getting hurt? You know, 376 00:20:57,160 --> 00:20:59,400 Speaker 5: the doctors I talked to just you know, they entertained 377 00:20:59,440 --> 00:21:01,879 Speaker 5: that there is a school thought with that that when 378 00:21:01,960 --> 00:21:04,720 Speaker 5: you are fatigued, you're more susceptible injury. But they also 379 00:21:04,800 --> 00:21:07,720 Speaker 5: mentioned with non contact injuries A lot of times just 380 00:21:07,800 --> 00:21:12,359 Speaker 5: stuff happens, right, But what I'm getting at is, even 381 00:21:12,359 --> 00:21:14,920 Speaker 5: when I give them the benth of the dow those 382 00:21:14,920 --> 00:21:18,800 Speaker 5: two things, it's still exposes the fallacy of the reason 383 00:21:18,880 --> 00:21:22,639 Speaker 5: why they trade Luca. They traded Luca partly because of 384 00:21:22,720 --> 00:21:26,480 Speaker 5: concerns about his durability and his conditioning at twenty five 385 00:21:26,560 --> 00:21:30,919 Speaker 5: years old, and therefore you have more faith in Kyrie 386 00:21:31,000 --> 00:21:34,520 Speaker 5: Irving and Anthony Davis, who are in their thirties, and 387 00:21:34,600 --> 00:21:38,959 Speaker 5: Anthony Davis, who has more of an extensive injury history. 388 00:21:39,400 --> 00:21:42,439 Speaker 5: That thought process doesn't make sense. So while I'm not 389 00:21:42,480 --> 00:21:45,680 Speaker 5: going to say these injuries are directly related to the 390 00:21:45,760 --> 00:21:50,320 Speaker 5: Luca trade in the short term, it does expose their 391 00:21:50,400 --> 00:21:53,560 Speaker 5: lack of foresight in the long term and investing in 392 00:21:54,240 --> 00:21:58,000 Speaker 5: two thirty year old type players instead of a twenty 393 00:21:58,160 --> 00:22:00,280 Speaker 5: six year old player. 394 00:22:00,400 --> 00:22:05,639 Speaker 2: I think that's all fair. And again the key phraseology 395 00:22:05,920 --> 00:22:09,040 Speaker 2: was bad luck. Anthony Davis had played north of seventy 396 00:22:09,080 --> 00:22:11,760 Speaker 2: games the last couple years. It's just bad luck of 397 00:22:11,800 --> 00:22:15,760 Speaker 2: the of the nth degree. So we'll move on from that. 398 00:22:17,200 --> 00:22:20,560 Speaker 2: What's the latest on Wenby and is there any update 399 00:22:20,840 --> 00:22:21,320 Speaker 2: at all? 400 00:22:22,480 --> 00:22:24,920 Speaker 5: No update, really, I mean he's out for the season. 401 00:22:25,480 --> 00:22:29,080 Speaker 5: I think, you know right now, And again I did 402 00:22:29,119 --> 00:22:32,480 Speaker 5: another piece talking outside doctors because when we were talking 403 00:22:32,520 --> 00:22:36,159 Speaker 5: about injuries here, most teams, you know, don't divulge a 404 00:22:36,160 --> 00:22:39,359 Speaker 5: lot of stuff. So I think right now, the sense 405 00:22:39,440 --> 00:22:42,800 Speaker 5: I get of knowing the typical timeline for people who 406 00:22:42,840 --> 00:22:46,360 Speaker 5: have blood cloths, it's all about resting right now. At 407 00:22:46,359 --> 00:22:51,159 Speaker 5: some point he'll probably get surgery, but we don't know 408 00:22:51,200 --> 00:22:54,240 Speaker 5: when that is, and then it's going to be all 409 00:22:54,240 --> 00:22:57,440 Speaker 5: about him having blood thinners and seeing if that helps, 410 00:22:57,720 --> 00:23:00,359 Speaker 5: you know, him recover, making sure it doesn't spread. But 411 00:23:00,920 --> 00:23:02,800 Speaker 5: there's not going to be an update for a while. 412 00:23:04,040 --> 00:23:04,280 Speaker 6: You know. 413 00:23:04,359 --> 00:23:06,919 Speaker 5: It's one thing if he's around the team. I believe 414 00:23:06,960 --> 00:23:09,600 Speaker 5: he still is, but it's not like all of a 415 00:23:09,640 --> 00:23:12,800 Speaker 5: sudden he's starting to make any sort of progress with 416 00:23:12,880 --> 00:23:16,880 Speaker 5: his recovery. It's more about just let's wrest and recuperate, 417 00:23:16,960 --> 00:23:19,200 Speaker 5: and if you are with the team, you know, behind 418 00:23:19,240 --> 00:23:22,520 Speaker 5: the scenes, great, but I don't think it's a requirement. 419 00:23:23,200 --> 00:23:27,199 Speaker 2: All right. Before I get to the lebron Stephen A 420 00:23:27,840 --> 00:23:31,200 Speaker 2: Ted of Ted, I want to talk about Zion Williamson. 421 00:23:31,240 --> 00:23:34,479 Speaker 2: And here's why, because I think three or four shows 422 00:23:34,480 --> 00:23:37,679 Speaker 2: ago I somewhat made the statement that it's just simply 423 00:23:37,680 --> 00:23:40,119 Speaker 2: time for the Pelicans to move on, and all of 424 00:23:40,160 --> 00:23:43,680 Speaker 2: a sudden, this guy looks like the second Coming. Last Sunday, 425 00:23:43,720 --> 00:23:46,439 Speaker 2: he had thirty seven. I forget who was against. He 426 00:23:46,520 --> 00:23:50,840 Speaker 2: looked incredible, seventeen to twenty three from the floor, just 427 00:23:50,880 --> 00:23:55,320 Speaker 2: a dominant you know, six assists for rebounds, he was stealing, blocking, 428 00:23:55,400 --> 00:23:58,000 Speaker 2: all that kind of stuff. I think it was against 429 00:23:58,000 --> 00:24:00,400 Speaker 2: the Lakers at a loss, but he looked in credible. 430 00:24:00,720 --> 00:24:05,800 Speaker 2: So this is this type of performance slashing what they 431 00:24:05,880 --> 00:24:10,040 Speaker 2: hoped Zion could be five years ago? Is this making 432 00:24:10,080 --> 00:24:12,680 Speaker 2: it difficult for the folks in New Orleans to make 433 00:24:12,680 --> 00:24:15,280 Speaker 2: a decision on him. What's going to happen with Zion? 434 00:24:15,840 --> 00:24:19,440 Speaker 5: Well, it's always going to be fluid because his availability 435 00:24:19,560 --> 00:24:21,920 Speaker 5: is football. We'll tell you this. As far as them 436 00:24:22,000 --> 00:24:25,080 Speaker 5: hesitating way to make a decision on him, they've already 437 00:24:25,119 --> 00:24:27,360 Speaker 5: made decisions on him. They gave him a five year 438 00:24:27,440 --> 00:24:30,640 Speaker 5: extension two seasons ago. Now, you know, there's a lot 439 00:24:30,680 --> 00:24:33,400 Speaker 5: of clauses in the contract that in order to get 440 00:24:33,440 --> 00:24:36,560 Speaker 5: fully paid, he's got to play a certain amount of games, 441 00:24:36,720 --> 00:24:39,320 Speaker 5: keep a certain amount of weight. Some of those details 442 00:24:39,359 --> 00:24:44,520 Speaker 5: aren't necessarily available, but they do have those clauses, you know, 443 00:24:44,560 --> 00:24:47,800 Speaker 5: for what it's worth. You know, New Orleans weren't was 444 00:24:47,880 --> 00:24:50,240 Speaker 5: in town last week in LA I was talking to 445 00:24:50,280 --> 00:24:54,480 Speaker 5: people in an organization. They basically said, since he came 446 00:24:54,520 --> 00:24:57,000 Speaker 5: back from injury and had that one game suspension in 447 00:24:57,000 --> 00:25:00,320 Speaker 5: mid January for missing a team flight, they said, Aude 448 00:25:00,359 --> 00:25:04,120 Speaker 5: has been great work ethics great, has been a lot 449 00:25:04,200 --> 00:25:09,320 Speaker 5: more consistent on defense, very vocal with his leadership. They 450 00:25:09,440 --> 00:25:13,520 Speaker 5: praise how he's been a lot more disciplined, you know, 451 00:25:14,040 --> 00:25:16,720 Speaker 5: as far as his regiment with the training staff goes. 452 00:25:17,640 --> 00:25:20,840 Speaker 5: But you know, I think in fairness, you can take 453 00:25:20,840 --> 00:25:23,320 Speaker 5: it both ways. This is something that people with the 454 00:25:23,359 --> 00:25:26,400 Speaker 5: Pelicans have told me the last two years about him, 455 00:25:26,680 --> 00:25:30,000 Speaker 5: that these injuries it's more of a product of injuries 456 00:25:30,080 --> 00:25:33,399 Speaker 5: happen and any things that come up have to do 457 00:25:33,440 --> 00:25:36,159 Speaker 5: with just his body has made up the way his 458 00:25:36,280 --> 00:25:39,120 Speaker 5: body is made up. And while he's not a finishing, 459 00:25:39,640 --> 00:25:43,480 Speaker 5: finished product as far as dieting and how to master 460 00:25:43,600 --> 00:25:47,360 Speaker 5: your training, they've always said he's been coachable and he's 461 00:25:47,400 --> 00:25:51,680 Speaker 5: just shipping away at learning curves. So that's where they're at. 462 00:25:52,240 --> 00:25:54,639 Speaker 5: I think another thing is they try to bring in 463 00:25:54,800 --> 00:25:57,639 Speaker 5: Ingram before the trade deadline, they didn't trade Zion Williamson, 464 00:25:57,800 --> 00:26:00,560 Speaker 5: so I think at least in the short term, it's 465 00:26:00,600 --> 00:26:06,399 Speaker 5: their thinking that next season their core is Zion Williamson, 466 00:26:07,600 --> 00:26:13,680 Speaker 5: Tray Murphy the third and Jonte Murray, and that's what 467 00:26:13,720 --> 00:26:16,640 Speaker 5: they think will be enough to be a viable playoff team. 468 00:26:16,720 --> 00:26:19,560 Speaker 5: But as you alluded to, you got to be available, 469 00:26:19,600 --> 00:26:21,959 Speaker 5: and I think it's telling that, you know, when I 470 00:26:22,000 --> 00:26:27,439 Speaker 5: asked Willie Green, the Pelicans coach, about Zion's growth, he 471 00:26:27,600 --> 00:26:31,840 Speaker 5: essentially said it's come down to, you know, him buying 472 00:26:31,880 --> 00:26:34,800 Speaker 5: in and put in the work to be more available 473 00:26:34,840 --> 00:26:37,359 Speaker 5: than he was in previous year. So I think if 474 00:26:37,400 --> 00:26:40,439 Speaker 5: you read between the lines on that they're companion to 475 00:26:40,520 --> 00:26:43,240 Speaker 5: him now, but that's always subject to change. 476 00:26:43,400 --> 00:26:45,320 Speaker 2: Sure, I think that's fair. That's the only way you 477 00:26:45,359 --> 00:26:47,680 Speaker 2: really can look at it, because every time there's a 478 00:26:47,760 --> 00:26:49,399 Speaker 2: light that you know the tone was Zion, it just 479 00:26:49,400 --> 00:26:53,040 Speaker 2: turns out to be done their oncoming train. There's no 480 00:26:53,119 --> 00:26:56,280 Speaker 2: question about his talent. There's just a question is whether 481 00:26:56,359 --> 00:26:58,520 Speaker 2: God made a human body. They can carry two hundred 482 00:26:58,520 --> 00:27:01,720 Speaker 2: and eighty pounds on a basketball floor ninety four feet 483 00:27:01,720 --> 00:27:03,359 Speaker 2: on a hardwood six months out of the year, and 484 00:27:03,400 --> 00:27:04,640 Speaker 2: that remains to be seen. 485 00:27:05,080 --> 00:27:10,040 Speaker 5: Right, it's you've hit on the head. I think Willie 486 00:27:10,080 --> 00:27:12,879 Speaker 5: Green's quote that he said that it's his commitment to 487 00:27:12,960 --> 00:27:15,840 Speaker 5: making sure he does his part to be available. That's 488 00:27:15,880 --> 00:27:18,639 Speaker 5: either a rain endorsement or a red flag, depending on 489 00:27:18,680 --> 00:27:22,040 Speaker 5: the circumstances. So we'll wait and see. 490 00:27:22,920 --> 00:27:27,240 Speaker 2: All right, Well, let's get to the charade of I'm 491 00:27:27,320 --> 00:27:30,720 Speaker 2: calling it Lebron's latest petulance. I think there's a case 492 00:27:30,760 --> 00:27:33,080 Speaker 2: to be made for both sides. I get it. I 493 00:27:33,119 --> 00:27:37,879 Speaker 2: always think there's a method to Lebron's self serving madness. 494 00:27:37,680 --> 00:27:42,600 Speaker 2: It's been suggested he could have handed the situation more discreetly. 495 00:27:43,400 --> 00:27:45,760 Speaker 2: My wife brought up a good point. She said, you know, 496 00:27:45,880 --> 00:27:48,000 Speaker 2: she thinks he did it on purpose in front of 497 00:27:48,119 --> 00:27:50,439 Speaker 2: you know, the world and everybody there to try to, 498 00:27:50,600 --> 00:27:53,560 Speaker 2: you know, make Stephen A. Smith look bad, right, and 499 00:27:53,600 --> 00:27:55,960 Speaker 2: so in doing so in a public forum like that, 500 00:27:56,359 --> 00:27:59,320 Speaker 2: it had a different dynamic. But you were there that night, 501 00:27:59,359 --> 00:28:04,480 Speaker 2: I'm sure give me your perspective mark from an objective analysis. 502 00:28:05,359 --> 00:28:09,000 Speaker 5: Yeah, well, steven A he was saying courtside. So you know, 503 00:28:10,040 --> 00:28:12,160 Speaker 5: I'm just saying this from my own point of view. 504 00:28:12,200 --> 00:28:15,000 Speaker 5: It's not, you know, anything that Lebron or any people 505 00:28:15,320 --> 00:28:18,280 Speaker 5: in his camp are sharing. This is just my point 506 00:28:18,280 --> 00:28:21,000 Speaker 5: of view. He's there, so it may as well confront him. 507 00:28:21,320 --> 00:28:21,480 Speaker 7: Now. 508 00:28:21,520 --> 00:28:24,720 Speaker 5: I think how I read this analysis is that it's 509 00:28:24,760 --> 00:28:28,800 Speaker 5: one thing. Obviously, you understand Lebron is a parent, proud 510 00:28:28,880 --> 00:28:31,720 Speaker 5: that or he's gonna want to stick up for his son, 511 00:28:32,359 --> 00:28:35,960 Speaker 5: and you know, don't like when people criticize. But you know, 512 00:28:36,000 --> 00:28:38,200 Speaker 5: while it is, I don't think it's anyone's place to 513 00:28:38,280 --> 00:28:41,360 Speaker 5: say how anyone should parent. I think there is a 514 00:28:41,480 --> 00:28:48,360 Speaker 5: queer distinction about that and any personal criticism versus critiquing 515 00:28:48,440 --> 00:28:53,280 Speaker 5: Browny as we critique any NBA player. And so, you know, 516 00:28:53,560 --> 00:28:56,240 Speaker 5: I'll be honest with you. It's not like I've watched 517 00:28:56,360 --> 00:29:00,400 Speaker 5: every single segment that Steven A. Smith has said about 518 00:29:00,520 --> 00:29:04,720 Speaker 5: Brownie James, let alone anything. But I think the key 519 00:29:04,800 --> 00:29:09,800 Speaker 5: question here is what specific criticism did Stephen A say 520 00:29:10,200 --> 00:29:13,080 Speaker 5: that made him upset. That's the thrust of the matter, 521 00:29:13,880 --> 00:29:16,240 Speaker 5: And as far as I can tell, I don't think 522 00:29:16,280 --> 00:29:22,400 Speaker 5: that Stephen A ever made any personal attacks or question 523 00:29:22,560 --> 00:29:25,719 Speaker 5: how Lebron is as a parent or a father. And 524 00:29:25,800 --> 00:29:28,280 Speaker 5: so assuming that's the case, I think it's out of bounce. 525 00:29:28,480 --> 00:29:33,080 Speaker 5: I mean, the reality is Lebron James use at least 526 00:29:33,080 --> 00:29:37,480 Speaker 5: some influence to get his son drafted with the Lakers. 527 00:29:37,480 --> 00:29:40,160 Speaker 5: He tweeted a lot of support, and again you understand 528 00:29:40,200 --> 00:29:42,640 Speaker 5: that he's a proud dad, but he tweeted a lot 529 00:29:42,680 --> 00:29:45,040 Speaker 5: of support that thrust him in the limelight before he 530 00:29:45,160 --> 00:29:49,440 Speaker 5: entered the NBA, so much that he even suggested when 531 00:29:49,480 --> 00:29:52,400 Speaker 5: he was at USC that he was already better than 532 00:29:52,480 --> 00:29:55,080 Speaker 5: some NBA players. And so if you're going to hype 533 00:29:55,120 --> 00:29:57,880 Speaker 5: someone up like you got to be ready to face 534 00:29:57,920 --> 00:30:01,120 Speaker 5: the scrutiny. And I say this, you know, I think 535 00:30:01,160 --> 00:30:05,760 Speaker 5: fully supportive of Brownie, that he's had his head on straight. 536 00:30:06,120 --> 00:30:08,760 Speaker 5: He comes in with a great attitude, great work ethic. 537 00:30:09,320 --> 00:30:12,320 Speaker 5: People around the organization rave about how he's about the 538 00:30:12,400 --> 00:30:16,320 Speaker 5: right things. But the obvious criticism is his game and 539 00:30:16,400 --> 00:30:18,280 Speaker 5: that he's spending most of the time in the G 540 00:30:18,400 --> 00:30:21,480 Speaker 5: League for a reason. And so I just think it 541 00:30:21,600 --> 00:30:25,280 Speaker 5: reeks of wanting to have it both ways. You can't 542 00:30:25,360 --> 00:30:29,160 Speaker 5: hype someone up and then you know, get all offended 543 00:30:29,200 --> 00:30:33,640 Speaker 5: when some people don't believe the hype. So it's unfortunate, 544 00:30:33,680 --> 00:30:36,840 Speaker 5: but that's the times we're in. I think it's also unfortunate, 545 00:30:37,440 --> 00:30:40,920 Speaker 5: you know, when there's commentators in our field that tweet 546 00:30:40,960 --> 00:30:45,680 Speaker 5: out or right stuff just you know, praising Lebron for 547 00:30:45,760 --> 00:30:49,280 Speaker 5: sticking up his for his son, or the other extreme 548 00:30:49,320 --> 00:30:54,239 Speaker 5: of making personal attacks without appreciating the nuance. And what 549 00:30:54,320 --> 00:30:56,800 Speaker 5: I see with the nuance is that there was never 550 00:30:56,880 --> 00:31:00,680 Speaker 5: anything personal specifically with stephen A. Maybe with other people, 551 00:31:00,800 --> 00:31:03,440 Speaker 5: but not steven A. And that's not to say that 552 00:31:03,480 --> 00:31:07,760 Speaker 5: he's always right about everything, but in this case, I 553 00:31:07,800 --> 00:31:11,160 Speaker 5: didn't see any clips again where he made personal attacks 554 00:31:11,200 --> 00:31:12,760 Speaker 5: about Bronni same. 555 00:31:14,320 --> 00:31:18,000 Speaker 2: That's the operative word here. There were no personal ad 556 00:31:18,040 --> 00:31:21,680 Speaker 2: hominem attacks that steven A. Smith ever made. He is 557 00:31:21,720 --> 00:31:26,200 Speaker 2: basically echoing what we all see. Look if someone walks 558 00:31:26,200 --> 00:31:28,360 Speaker 2: in and interviews as a lifeguard and they looked apart 559 00:31:28,400 --> 00:31:30,520 Speaker 2: and answer all the right questions, you'd see yourself. Man, 560 00:31:30,640 --> 00:31:33,120 Speaker 2: this dude's a lifeguard. Eventually he's gonna have to jump 561 00:31:33,120 --> 00:31:35,200 Speaker 2: in the pool and save somebody. If you can't swim. 562 00:31:35,600 --> 00:31:37,560 Speaker 2: The whole world can see his kid is not an 563 00:31:37,640 --> 00:31:40,080 Speaker 2: NBA player. That those folks who call him and make 564 00:31:40,080 --> 00:31:42,840 Speaker 2: a wish kid, that's ridiculous, that's not that's how to bounce. 565 00:31:43,280 --> 00:31:46,440 Speaker 2: But Steve Smith, steven A. Smith, never did any of 566 00:31:46,480 --> 00:31:49,680 Speaker 2: that to the best of my knowledge. So for Lebron 567 00:31:49,760 --> 00:31:52,720 Speaker 2: to have cost him that way, it just came across 568 00:31:52,800 --> 00:31:58,120 Speaker 2: his highly sensitive, insecure, thin skin, self serving, petulant, all 569 00:31:58,160 --> 00:32:01,959 Speaker 2: of the above. If he'd call them offline whatever. To Stevenischmans, 570 00:32:02,040 --> 00:32:03,960 Speaker 2: he does how to find me, That's what he said. 571 00:32:04,120 --> 00:32:08,600 Speaker 2: So just another Lebron moment that I think Dence's legacy. 572 00:32:08,800 --> 00:32:10,760 Speaker 2: He's had many of them in his career, when he 573 00:32:10,800 --> 00:32:12,520 Speaker 2: talks about things he doesn't know what he's talking about, 574 00:32:12,640 --> 00:32:14,680 Speaker 2: or when he walks off the quote without shaking hands, 575 00:32:14,800 --> 00:32:16,680 Speaker 2: or you know, you all go back to your sucky 576 00:32:16,680 --> 00:32:19,560 Speaker 2: lives when they got eliminated in the playoffs of years ago. Look, 577 00:32:19,720 --> 00:32:21,920 Speaker 2: you brought up the most important point though he was 578 00:32:21,960 --> 00:32:24,400 Speaker 2: acting as a father in that moment. That's something people 579 00:32:24,400 --> 00:32:26,880 Speaker 2: can certainly relate to. I can relate to it, but 580 00:32:26,960 --> 00:32:29,040 Speaker 2: you don't go through life lead with your chin, especially 581 00:32:29,040 --> 00:32:31,800 Speaker 2: if you Lebron James, the self proclaimed king. You got 582 00:32:31,800 --> 00:32:32,400 Speaker 2: the last word. 583 00:32:33,000 --> 00:32:35,280 Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean, look, every parent and you know I'm 584 00:32:35,320 --> 00:32:38,280 Speaker 5: not a parent yet, so you know, again, I want 585 00:32:38,280 --> 00:32:41,400 Speaker 5: to be careful with my words here, but generally I'm 586 00:32:41,520 --> 00:32:45,000 Speaker 5: very well aware that you know, parents obviously have strong 587 00:32:45,080 --> 00:32:48,600 Speaker 5: affection for their kids. They hype them up. If they pray. 588 00:32:48,920 --> 00:32:51,480 Speaker 5: It's one thing for them to praise them or criticize 589 00:32:51,520 --> 00:32:55,360 Speaker 5: them privately, but it hits differently when you hear others 590 00:32:55,640 --> 00:32:58,600 Speaker 5: say those or say those kind of things. And so 591 00:32:59,160 --> 00:33:02,640 Speaker 5: there's always in things about wanting to defend someone, but 592 00:33:02,720 --> 00:33:07,440 Speaker 5: there's also I think generally parents weighed the value of hey, 593 00:33:07,520 --> 00:33:11,080 Speaker 5: letting your son or daughter be their own person and 594 00:33:11,600 --> 00:33:14,760 Speaker 5: you know, let them be the adult, right, And so 595 00:33:15,680 --> 00:33:19,280 Speaker 5: I don't I don't want to provide any commentary, nor 596 00:33:19,360 --> 00:33:22,640 Speaker 5: do I think it's appropriate to on what is the 597 00:33:22,720 --> 00:33:26,040 Speaker 5: right approach when it comes to parenting. But what I 598 00:33:26,080 --> 00:33:30,640 Speaker 5: will say is that it shouldn't be surprising again, when 599 00:33:30,680 --> 00:33:34,719 Speaker 5: you are a professional athlete, especially when Lebron hyped him 600 00:33:34,800 --> 00:33:39,000 Speaker 5: up before he even entered the draft. That's that's leaving 601 00:33:39,080 --> 00:33:43,840 Speaker 5: him open for you know, criticism, attention, praise, all the 602 00:33:43,880 --> 00:33:47,320 Speaker 5: above or a mix of both depending on how he plays, 603 00:33:47,360 --> 00:33:50,680 Speaker 5: and none of this should be surprising. I think everyone 604 00:33:50,760 --> 00:33:52,600 Speaker 5: knew what he was signed up for with US. 605 00:33:52,800 --> 00:33:55,520 Speaker 2: Hey, look, he's got a seven million dollar contract, he 606 00:33:55,640 --> 00:33:58,920 Speaker 2: was drafted, he's appeared in thirteen NBA games this year, 607 00:33:59,080 --> 00:34:05,480 Speaker 2: and let's also be fair, Lebron Bronni James, by all appearances, 608 00:34:05,840 --> 00:34:09,080 Speaker 2: seems to be a really classy, dignified kid, a good 609 00:34:09,440 --> 00:34:14,000 Speaker 2: a good dude, lasting Mark. What is the Lakers real 610 00:34:14,160 --> 00:34:15,200 Speaker 2: ceiling this year? 611 00:34:16,920 --> 00:34:20,600 Speaker 5: Honestly lately, it's championship. I'm not going to say their 612 00:34:20,640 --> 00:34:23,640 Speaker 5: favorites now, but I think it is telling that when 613 00:34:23,719 --> 00:34:26,680 Speaker 5: we when we've talked bats every week, I always said, Okay, 614 00:34:27,040 --> 00:34:30,480 Speaker 5: they're making a play in tournament or sixth seed. They 615 00:34:30,520 --> 00:34:33,000 Speaker 5: may get out of the first round, but that's the best. 616 00:34:33,600 --> 00:34:36,480 Speaker 5: They can certainly win it, but they're not the favorites. 617 00:34:36,600 --> 00:34:40,279 Speaker 5: It's the thunder we saw tonight, the Celtics, you know, 618 00:34:40,400 --> 00:34:44,160 Speaker 5: have the Lakers number. In a regular season game, it's 619 00:34:44,160 --> 00:34:47,239 Speaker 5: the Cavaliers. I would even say it's the Nuggets. I mean, 620 00:34:47,280 --> 00:34:50,920 Speaker 5: Nicole Jokic just playing out of his mind. But I 621 00:34:50,960 --> 00:34:53,440 Speaker 5: think you do have to add the Lakers, and you 622 00:34:53,520 --> 00:34:57,840 Speaker 5: have to add the Warriors to to that conversation. Because 623 00:34:57,880 --> 00:35:02,000 Speaker 5: the trade deadline moves Luca Jimmy Butler, it's been huge 624 00:35:02,000 --> 00:35:05,359 Speaker 5: shot in the arms for the organization. And I don't 625 00:35:05,360 --> 00:35:08,520 Speaker 5: think anyone in the right mind would want to face 626 00:35:08,680 --> 00:35:11,759 Speaker 5: either team in a playoff matchup. But I will say 627 00:35:11,760 --> 00:35:16,040 Speaker 5: in fairness. Oklahoma City has a deeper roster, they're younger. 628 00:35:16,600 --> 00:35:20,600 Speaker 5: Denver has obviously more continuity. The Celtics are coming off 629 00:35:20,600 --> 00:35:24,799 Speaker 5: their championship run their course mostly intact in Cleveland. I 630 00:35:24,840 --> 00:35:27,399 Speaker 5: think some people might have their arms cross. Okay, you're 631 00:35:27,560 --> 00:35:30,160 Speaker 5: a good regular season team, does that mean you're a 632 00:35:30,200 --> 00:35:33,000 Speaker 5: good postseason team. We've seen in recent history like the 633 00:35:33,000 --> 00:35:36,240 Speaker 5: Houston Rockets and Phoenix Suns that's not always the case. 634 00:35:36,360 --> 00:35:40,840 Speaker 5: But they've been a really elite and balanced offensive and 635 00:35:40,960 --> 00:35:43,799 Speaker 5: defensive team. So it's going to be tough. But look, 636 00:35:43,840 --> 00:35:46,840 Speaker 5: it's not out of the realm of impossibility. And I 637 00:35:46,880 --> 00:35:49,080 Speaker 5: thought a few weeks ago before the trade deadline that 638 00:35:49,160 --> 00:35:49,560 Speaker 5: it was. 639 00:35:50,640 --> 00:35:52,279 Speaker 2: Well said, and I agree with all of it. And 640 00:35:52,400 --> 00:35:55,480 Speaker 2: we'll see how soon Lebron can get back because that 641 00:35:55,560 --> 00:35:59,120 Speaker 2: tandem shows real signs of somebody who got to pay 642 00:35:59,120 --> 00:36:02,359 Speaker 2: attention to mar stuff. I already can't wait till next week. Buddy. 643 00:36:02,200 --> 00:36:03,759 Speaker 5: Why I appreciate. 644 00:36:03,320 --> 00:36:07,400 Speaker 2: You, Thank you. That is Mark Medina, Medina magic. You 645 00:36:07,440 --> 00:36:09,439 Speaker 2: hear him every Saturday night on the Bernie Frattle Show, 646 00:36:09,600 --> 00:36:12,319 Speaker 2: very much as his figure on the pulse of all 647 00:36:12,320 --> 00:36:15,760 Speaker 2: things NBA, and of course he is our Fox Sports 648 00:36:15,880 --> 00:36:19,880 Speaker 2: Radio NBA Guru. You hear him all around the network 649 00:36:20,080 --> 00:36:22,960 Speaker 2: and on my show fifty two weeks out of the year. 650 00:36:23,440 --> 00:36:28,239 Speaker 2: Coming up, Well, we are sixteen minutes away from the 651 00:36:28,280 --> 00:36:33,040 Speaker 2: midnight hour. It will be twelve midnight here on the 652 00:36:33,080 --> 00:36:36,440 Speaker 2: Pacific time zone where I am literally, it will also 653 00:36:36,520 --> 00:36:39,239 Speaker 2: be twelve midnight most likely where you're at.

Southampton they're going to get sent 1941 01:44:15,560 --> 01:44:20,679 Speaker 18: down to The English Football League championship and most others 1942 01:44:20,760 --> 01:44:24,240 Speaker 18: will stay up barring a massive return From ipswich Or 1943 01:44:24,400 --> 01:44:26,400 Speaker 18: leicester to really hold themselves. 1944 01:44:26,439 --> 01:44:28,680 Speaker 1: Alive but those are the only really four teams in. 1945 01:44:28,760 --> 01:44:31,360 Speaker 18: Danger SO i want to talk about a team in 1946 01:44:31,400 --> 01:44:33,479 Speaker 18: The Premier league who has a real danger of not 1947 01:44:33,760 --> 01:44:37,960 Speaker 18: making something in another, way and That's Manchester. City, Now 1948 01:44:38,080 --> 01:44:42,040 Speaker 18: Manchester city went out On saturday and lost one nil 1949 01:44:42,160 --> 01:44:45,120 Speaker 18: To Nottingham. Force in a vacuum looking at the, table 1950 01:44:45,320 --> 01:44:47,720 Speaker 18: that's not a terrible. Thing Nottingham forest is a top 1951 01:44:47,840 --> 01:44:51,000 Speaker 18: three team right, now probably not going to Catch liverpool 1952 01:44:51,040 --> 01:44:53,599 Speaker 18: for The Champions league. Title at this, point no one, 1953 01:44:53,720 --> 01:44:57,280 Speaker 18: is not Even. Arsenal but in this Game Manchester city 1954 01:44:57,320 --> 01:45:01,320 Speaker 18: continued to look. Lifeless they dominated time possession by almost 1955 01:45:01,439 --> 01:45:04,400 Speaker 18: seventy percent of the, Game they held the ball in their, 1956 01:45:04,479 --> 01:45:07,920 Speaker 18: possession they had fourteen shot, attempts three, shot shots on, 1957 01:45:08,080 --> 01:45:12,519 Speaker 18: goal and yet we're just absolutely just lifeless out. There 1958 01:45:13,680 --> 01:45:15,560 Speaker 18: with all the, talent you would think they'd have some. 1959 01:45:15,680 --> 01:45:18,040 Speaker 18: More but this has continued to be the story Of 1960 01:45:18,240 --> 01:45:22,360 Speaker 18: Manchester city throughout This Premier league. Season right now, though 1961 01:45:22,680 --> 01:45:26,360 Speaker 18: coming out of that, match they now sit a fourth. Place, 1962 01:45:26,800 --> 01:45:29,000 Speaker 18: remember the top four teams in The Premier league get 1963 01:45:29,040 --> 01:45:31,640 Speaker 18: to go to The Champions. League now fourth, place that 1964 01:45:31,680 --> 01:45:34,960 Speaker 18: sounds fine forty seven. Points, However chelsea is going to 1965 01:45:35,000 --> 01:45:38,559 Speaker 18: play On sunday against Aforementioned Leicester city at the bottom 1966 01:45:38,600 --> 01:45:40,120 Speaker 18: of the, table and they have a real chance to 1967 01:45:40,160 --> 01:45:44,000 Speaker 18: gain three points at forty six and Leapfrog Manchester city 1968 01:45:44,080 --> 01:45:46,479 Speaker 18: and knock them out of that. Contention right behind Them 1969 01:45:46,680 --> 01:45:49,320 Speaker 18: brighton And Hove albion also with forty five Point Aston 1970 01:45:49,400 --> 01:45:52,639 Speaker 18: villa in the seventh place with forty. Five Newcastle united 1971 01:45:53,000 --> 01:45:56,160 Speaker 18: really desperate forty. Four we could Mention born With fulham. 1972 01:45:56,560 --> 01:45:58,719 Speaker 18: Like the point is that there's a lot of teams 1973 01:45:59,000 --> 01:46:01,879 Speaker 18: backing up the bus right Behind Man's city without listless 1974 01:46:01,960 --> 01:46:05,000 Speaker 18: they look getting into The Champions league isn't a guaranteed 1975 01:46:05,080 --> 01:46:08,560 Speaker 18: and we must Remember alwa also. Too on top of 1976 01:46:08,640 --> 01:46:11,960 Speaker 18: all of, this this is an organization In Manchester city 1977 01:46:12,000 --> 01:46:15,760 Speaker 18: that is waiting to hear their fate from the tribunal 1978 01:46:15,880 --> 01:46:20,439 Speaker 18: set up about their financial irregularities and supposed breaking of 1979 01:46:20,560 --> 01:46:23,280 Speaker 18: the financial rules of The Premier, league which could see, 1980 01:46:23,320 --> 01:46:27,040 Speaker 18: them at the very least in their penalties take a points. 1981 01:46:27,080 --> 01:46:31,799 Speaker 18: Deduction that would be a very, good a very fortunate 1982 01:46:31,920 --> 01:46:34,360 Speaker 18: outcome to just have a point, Seduction and if that's 1983 01:46:34,400 --> 01:46:36,600 Speaker 18: going to be the, Case Manchester city might just go 1984 01:46:36,640 --> 01:46:39,080 Speaker 18: ahead and take that this. Year BECAUSE i don't think 1985 01:46:39,120 --> 01:46:41,679 Speaker 18: they're Making. EUROPE i don't think they're Making Champions, league 1986 01:46:41,680 --> 01:46:44,240 Speaker 18: and they're too big to be playing In europa Or Europa. 1987 01:46:44,360 --> 01:46:47,040 Speaker 18: Conference this isn't Like juventus a couple of years, ago 1988 01:46:47,280 --> 01:46:49,640 Speaker 18: where they were at the top of the table like 1989 01:46:49,800 --> 01:46:53,160 Speaker 18: second or third place and got. Slammed And Manchester city's, 1990 01:46:53,200 --> 01:46:56,040 Speaker 18: crimes if they are to, believe are far more wide 1991 01:46:56,200 --> 01:46:59,639 Speaker 18: and all encompassing than What juventus was accused. From, again 1992 01:46:59,680 --> 01:47:02,240 Speaker 18: they'd be lucky if it's just a points deduction for. Them, 1993 01:47:02,479 --> 01:47:05,240 Speaker 18: now let's Set Manchester city. ASIDE i had promised you 1994 01:47:05,600 --> 01:47:08,719 Speaker 18: a few weeks ago we talked about The United Soccer 1995 01:47:08,840 --> 01:47:12,599 Speaker 18: league setting up a competitor To Major League. 1996 01:47:12,640 --> 01:47:16,040 Speaker 1: Soccer what is THE usl THE usl is. 1997 01:47:16,080 --> 01:47:19,719 Speaker 18: The league In america that has had the vast majority 1998 01:47:19,760 --> 01:47:23,200 Speaker 18: of teams in this, country a lot of grassroots, teams 1999 01:47:23,720 --> 01:47:26,200 Speaker 18: a lot of smaller local, teams including ONE i tend 2000 01:47:26,320 --> 01:47:28,519 Speaker 18: to pay a lot of attention To Detroit CITY, Fc, 2001 01:47:28,680 --> 01:47:30,400 Speaker 18: detroit of, course being passed. 2002 01:47:30,160 --> 01:47:32,639 Speaker 1: Over multiple times FROM. Mls they have teams. 2003 01:47:32,439 --> 01:47:36,560 Speaker 18: In, pittsburgh In, oakland in a lot of places across this, 2004 01:47:36,720 --> 01:47:40,760 Speaker 18: country AND i think this is a great development for 2005 01:47:41,400 --> 01:47:45,040 Speaker 18: the world of soccer In North. America there is no 2006 01:47:45,240 --> 01:47:47,800 Speaker 18: denying at the end of the, DAY mls has become. 2007 01:47:48,000 --> 01:47:51,599 Speaker 18: Big it has failed to gather attention for a lot 2008 01:47:51,680 --> 01:47:54,439 Speaker 18: of its, ratings and it's really become a little bit 2009 01:47:54,439 --> 01:47:56,559 Speaker 18: too big for its bridges in a few. Places Lionel 2010 01:47:56,640 --> 01:47:58,960 Speaker 18: messi DEAL i think went to their heads when it 2011 01:47:59,040 --> 01:48:01,400 Speaker 18: came to how power or they, were what kind of 2012 01:48:01,439 --> 01:48:04,080 Speaker 18: attention they.

Trust a great backcourt can control. Pace Isaiah 2103 01:53:10,840 --> 01:53:13,320 Speaker 2: thomas said at. Best he told me once that he 2104 01:53:13,479 --> 01:53:17,320 Speaker 2: believed that point guard was the most important position in 2105 01:53:17,400 --> 01:53:19,439 Speaker 2: all the sports because one man with the ball in 2106 01:53:19,520 --> 01:53:24,080 Speaker 2: his hands could dictate the movements of nine other. People 2107 01:53:24,720 --> 01:53:28,800 Speaker 2: that includes women's basketball as. Well so let's cut to the. 2108 01:53:28,920 --> 01:53:30,840 Speaker 2: Chase i'm not going to make you. Wait WHY i 2109 01:53:30,880 --> 01:53:33,200 Speaker 2: think's going to win it? ALL i think The Duke 2110 01:53:33,240 --> 01:53:37,439 Speaker 2: Blue devils win it. All why the numbers Say duke 2111 01:53:37,600 --> 01:53:40,920 Speaker 2: isn't just elite for the season they're in, now but 2112 01:53:41,040 --> 01:53:43,000 Speaker 2: they're tracking to become one of the best teams in 2113 01:53:43,040 --> 01:53:45,880 Speaker 2: the recent history of the sport based on stats now 2114 01:53:45,960 --> 01:53:49,640 Speaker 2: as of Last, Monday they're adjusted deficiency marchin For Ken 2115 01:53:49,800 --> 01:53:53,000 Speaker 2: palm is the highest any team has ever reached at 2116 01:53:53,000 --> 01:53:55,240 Speaker 2: any point of the season in over ten, years and 2117 01:53:55,360 --> 01:53:58,360 Speaker 2: based on their season ending, rank the only team above 2118 01:53:58,439 --> 01:54:01,479 Speaker 2: this Year's duke team is in nineteen ninety Nine Blue. 2119 01:54:01,520 --> 01:54:04,360 Speaker 2: Devils duke has and why do we say That duke 2120 01:54:04,439 --> 01:54:07,479 Speaker 2: has a bazillion ways to beat? You they've got Link 2121 01:54:07,520 --> 01:54:10,519 Speaker 2: they've got athleticism that allows them to dominate the rim 2122 01:54:10,600 --> 01:54:12,759 Speaker 2: on both sides of the. Floor duke is an elite 2123 01:54:12,800 --> 01:54:16,479 Speaker 2: three point shooting team over thirty eight percent from. Distance that. 2124 01:54:16,680 --> 01:54:20,000 Speaker 2: Matters duke takes care of the. Basketball they have quality. 2125 01:54:20,120 --> 01:54:24,320 Speaker 2: Depth Cooper flag is the type of game changing player 2126 01:54:24,720 --> 01:54:27,479 Speaker 2: who could win an otherwise poor. Game he could put 2127 01:54:27,479 --> 01:54:30,320 Speaker 2: the team on his. Back But duke is not as 2128 01:54:30,439 --> 01:54:33,080 Speaker 2: reliant As Cooper flag to be in takeover mode to 2129 01:54:33,160 --> 01:54:38,080 Speaker 2: win games against top tier. Competition Because, duke, WELL i get. 2130 01:54:38,120 --> 01:54:40,320 Speaker 2: It they may not be quite as battle tested as 2131 01:54:40,360 --> 01:54:43,320 Speaker 2: some of their counterparts from other, leagues but they've already Beaten, 2132 01:54:43,360 --> 01:54:47,920 Speaker 2: auburn they Beat arizona At, arizona and they completely Destroyed 2133 01:54:48,480 --> 01:54:53,120 Speaker 2: illinois on a neutral. Court so, look what's their fatal? 2134 01:54:53,200 --> 01:54:55,000 Speaker 2: Flaw WHEN i give the other seven teams WHO i 2135 01:54:55,040 --> 01:54:57,160 Speaker 2: think can win, it they all have one fatal flaw 2136 01:54:57,240 --> 01:55:00,840 Speaker 2: And duke has won two a potential fatal. Flaw why, 2137 01:55:01,400 --> 01:55:03,480 Speaker 2: well their main playing rotation is already one of the 2138 01:55:03,480 --> 01:55:06,000 Speaker 2: youngest in the, country and two of their key veterans 2139 01:55:06,040 --> 01:55:11,240 Speaker 2: are dealing with. Injuries Malik brown had a dislocated. Shoulder Tyrese, 2140 01:55:11,320 --> 01:55:14,320 Speaker 2: proctor he came back from a bone bruise he played 2141 01:55:14,360 --> 01:55:17,480 Speaker 2: twenty four minutes Against Wake forest last. Week but he's, 2142 01:55:17,480 --> 01:55:21,000 Speaker 2: seen you, know in his in his. Injury one of 2143 01:55:21,040 --> 01:55:25,320 Speaker 2: these are season. Ending but without you, Know Malik, brown 2144 01:55:25,520 --> 01:55:29,640 Speaker 2: or If Tyree's proctor's not one hundred, Percent duke's ceiling 2145 01:55:29,760 --> 01:55:32,640 Speaker 2: drops a little. Bit, okay But i've always, believed you, 2146 01:55:32,680 --> 01:55:34,640 Speaker 2: know some of my high school football coach used to, 2147 01:55:34,680 --> 01:55:37,120 Speaker 2: say if we bring our best and they bring their, 2148 01:55:37,200 --> 01:55:39,000 Speaker 2: best we want our best to be better than their. 2149 01:55:39,040 --> 01:55:42,960 Speaker 2: BEST i Think duke may be a young. Team they 2150 01:55:43,040 --> 01:55:45,840 Speaker 2: may not have a lot of close. Games five games 2151 01:55:45,880 --> 01:55:48,680 Speaker 2: all season is sided by single. Digits we've also seen 2152 01:55:48,840 --> 01:55:53,520 Speaker 2: on Occasion Cooper flag makes some rookie keek. Turnovers and 2153 01:55:53,840 --> 01:55:56,560 Speaker 2: the truth of the matter, is though The duke's ceiling is, 2154 01:55:56,720 --> 01:55:59,800 Speaker 2: high and yet they have the rotation that's the youngest 2155 01:55:59,840 --> 01:56:01,560 Speaker 2: in the. Country but when they have that kind of 2156 01:56:01,640 --> 01:56:06,640 Speaker 2: high ceiling, rotation, yeah The Houston cougars make my. List, 2157 01:56:06,800 --> 01:56:10,360 Speaker 2: okay can they win it? All, yes but what have 2158 01:56:10,480 --> 01:56:13,720 Speaker 2: we seen in recent years in crunch time and big 2159 01:56:13,800 --> 01:56:19,280 Speaker 2: games versus quality opponents In march their offense. Struggles will 2160 01:56:19,360 --> 01:56:22,560 Speaker 2: that happen this? YEAR i don't. Know but if you're 2161 01:56:22,560 --> 01:56:25,520 Speaker 2: looking for a common, threat For HOUSTON'S ncaa tournament. Losses 2162 01:56:26,080 --> 01:56:28,800 Speaker 2: since they're. Stretching you, know they've they've been making to 2163 01:56:28,880 --> 01:56:30,560 Speaker 2: the second, week and for several years in a, row 2164 01:56:31,000 --> 01:56:33,200 Speaker 2: they scored under sixty points in four of the last 2165 01:56:33,240 --> 01:56:37,240 Speaker 2: five games they eliminated. Him that could be a. Problem. 2166 01:56:37,680 --> 01:56:41,000 Speaker 2: Auburn Can auburn win it? All they're on the? List 2167 01:56:41,400 --> 01:56:42,240 Speaker 2: DO i think they will? 2168 01:56:42,440 --> 01:56:42,480 Speaker 10: Know? 2169 01:56:43,200 --> 01:56:45,040 Speaker 2: NOW i may be going out on a limit this. 2170 01:56:45,120 --> 01:56:48,040 Speaker 2: One there's always something With Bruce pearl in the final. 2171 01:56:48,120 --> 01:56:51,600 Speaker 2: Four but the truth of the matter is THAT i 2172 01:56:51,720 --> 01:56:58,760 Speaker 2: found an. Angle in the last fifteen, years every single 2173 01:56:58,920 --> 01:57:03,240 Speaker 2: champion has had it at least one first round draft. 2174 01:57:03,280 --> 01:57:07,200 Speaker 2: Pick The Auburn tigers don't have. THAT i do not 2175 01:57:07,360 --> 01:57:11,120 Speaker 2: Think Juni, broom as good as he, is is a 2176 01:57:11,160 --> 01:57:13,960 Speaker 2: first round draft. Pick he could end up going late 2177 01:57:14,040 --> 01:57:16,840 Speaker 2: in the First if, not he'll go in the second 2178 01:57:16,920 --> 01:57:20,800 Speaker 2: round for. Sure All. Right the traditional thinking is you 2179 01:57:20,960 --> 01:57:25,360 Speaker 2: need SUREFIRE nba talent to win it. All the last 2180 01:57:25,440 --> 01:57:29,200 Speaker 2: seven champions had at least one top fifteen draft, pick 2181 01:57:29,720 --> 01:57:31,840 Speaker 2: and every champion Sin stuke had at least one player 2182 01:57:31,960 --> 01:57:33,760 Speaker 2: drafted in the first. Round, look the truth of the 2183 01:57:33,840 --> 01:57:39,720 Speaker 2: matter is that. Matters tennessee slow pace The, DARIAT i 2184 01:57:39,800 --> 01:57:43,240 Speaker 2: beat you with. Threes Rick. BARNES i just can't Back 2185 01:57:43,320 --> 01:57:48,440 Speaker 2: Rick barnes in the big. Game. Alabama, ironically they're two 2186 01:57:48,640 --> 01:57:51,720 Speaker 2: reliant on threes for a team that takes as many 2187 01:57:51,800 --> 01:57:55,800 Speaker 2: threes as the tie. Does, Ironically alabama is not considered 2188 01:57:55,840 --> 01:57:58,760 Speaker 2: an elite three point shooting. Team on the. Season they're 2189 01:57:58,760 --> 01:58:02,360 Speaker 2: outside the top hundred nation in three point percentage and 2190 01:58:02,480 --> 01:58:04,280 Speaker 2: they put more weak shooters on the floor than any 2191 01:58:04,320 --> 01:58:08,960 Speaker 2: Other NATO's. TEAM i think he's ever coached that. Matters 2192 01:58:09,400 --> 01:58:11,840 Speaker 2: Can Michigan state win it? All they definitely make my. 2193 01:58:11,960 --> 01:58:14,480 Speaker 2: LIST i love Tom. IZZO i think they're A final four. 2194 01:58:14,520 --> 01:58:18,400 Speaker 2: Team the case against, well you got to have ten 2195 01:58:18,520 --> 01:58:22,000 Speaker 2: capable rotation players like they. Do it's a. Blessing but 2196 01:58:22,120 --> 01:58:24,880 Speaker 2: the truth of the matter is their backups are less 2197 01:58:24,960 --> 01:58:27,400 Speaker 2: talent than any of the elite teams That i've already. 2198 01:58:27,480 --> 01:58:31,240 Speaker 2: Discussed that could be their. Bugaboo And Michigan, state, ironically 2199 01:58:31,280 --> 01:58:34,280 Speaker 2: as good as they are, defensively they allow more ranked 2200 01:58:34,320 --> 01:58:37,080 Speaker 2: teams to take more three pointers against them than any 2201 01:58:37,160 --> 01:58:42,160 Speaker 2: other ranked. Team, Finally, florida they're. Inconsistent when they bring their, 2202 01:58:42,200 --> 01:58:44,840 Speaker 2: best they're, scary but this is the Same florida team 2203 01:58:44,880 --> 01:58:48,640 Speaker 2: that was down twenty six To, georgia down nineteen To, 2204 01:58:48,760 --> 01:58:54,160 Speaker 2: missouri once down thirteen To South. Carolina they are. Inconsistent incredibly, 2205 01:58:54,240 --> 01:58:57,600 Speaker 2: talented but. Inconsistent DID i Forget Saint. John's, NO i. 2206 01:58:57,680 --> 01:59:00,360 Speaker 2: DIDN'T i think they're, awesome but they're outside the top 2207 01:59:00,440 --> 01:59:05,600 Speaker 2: ten seventy an offensive, efficiency AND i think that. Matters 2208 01:59:06,320 --> 01:59:09,000 Speaker 2: by the, way their two toughest, games they lost To 2209 01:59:09,040 --> 01:59:11,680 Speaker 2: georgia sixty six sixty. Three they lost To baylor in 2210 01:59:11,720 --> 01:59:13,360 Speaker 2: ninety nine to ninety. Eight the tooth of the matter 2211 01:59:13,520 --> 01:59:15,920 Speaker 2: is as good As Saint john's. Is The Big. East 2212 01:59:16,160 --> 01:59:18,520 Speaker 2: isn't that?
