Speaker 2: I always think of it as Now. I don't even

161
00:07:20,280 --> 00:07:21,200
Speaker 2: know what you mean by hot.

162
00:07:21,240 --> 00:07:24,559
Speaker 1: I don't think you like in temperature talking aesthetics, like

163
00:07:24,560 --> 00:07:26,280
Speaker 1: like when you're you know, like your a piece of

164
00:07:26,280 --> 00:07:29,760
Speaker 1: meat on on going down on a spit.

165
00:07:29,920 --> 00:07:33,560
Speaker 2: You're going, Yeah, this just keeps getting work. All you

166
00:07:33,600 --> 00:07:35,280
Speaker 2: guys gotta do is just take your.

167
00:07:35,200 --> 00:07:39,720
Speaker 5: Mind out of there, play along. I'm not in that realm.

168
00:07:39,760 --> 00:07:42,080
Speaker 5: I'm not talking about that. Everybody at home knows what

169
00:07:42,080 --> 00:07:46,240
Speaker 5: I'm talking about. It's so hot, you're on a barbecue grill,

170
00:07:46,360 --> 00:07:48,320
Speaker 5: and I want to pour a barbecue sauce on it.

171
00:07:48,400 --> 00:07:50,880
Speaker 2: That's all, But you like got very specific. You didn't

172
00:07:50,880 --> 00:07:52,400
Speaker 2: say that in general. Man, it's so hot.

173
00:07:52,480 --> 00:07:56,000
Speaker 1: I could you said bow when I saw you because

174
00:07:56,000 --> 00:07:56,880
Speaker 1: we were talking about hot.

175
00:07:56,920 --> 00:07:57,520
Speaker 2: It was all right.

176
00:08:01,960 --> 00:08:04,600
Speaker 5: Steevens at the anchor desk. He'll keep us updated throughout

177
00:08:04,640 --> 00:08:07,040
Speaker 5: the program, and of course.

178
00:08:10,000 --> 00:08:12,280
Speaker 2: Elijah, who is.

179
00:08:12,200 --> 00:08:16,680
Speaker 5: Our social media guru. All right, let's get there, let's

180
00:08:16,680 --> 00:08:19,320
Speaker 5: do it. We got in less than an hour. It's

181
00:08:19,360 --> 00:08:23,720
Speaker 5: the championship, right of the WBC Championship. It all comes

182
00:08:23,760 --> 00:08:30,640
Speaker 5: down Venezuela against the United States for all the marbles.

183
00:08:31,200 --> 00:08:36,079
Speaker 5: And the season starts a week from tomorrow, early this

184
00:08:36,160 --> 00:08:38,680
Speaker 5: year so that they don't play in November, which I love.

185
00:08:39,480 --> 00:08:44,720
Speaker 5: I will be in San Francisco at Oracle Park next Wednesday.

186
00:08:44,559 --> 00:08:47,720
Speaker 2: The Yankees at the Giants. Can't wait.

187
00:08:47,920 --> 00:08:51,959
Speaker 5: Five o'clock start Netflix the whole nine Yards, the only

188
00:08:52,120 --> 00:08:54,280
Speaker 5: game on that day, and then the rest of the

189
00:08:54,640 --> 00:08:58,320
Speaker 5: league starts on Thursday. So I'm excited for the start

190
00:08:58,360 --> 00:08:59,400
Speaker 5: of the baseball season.

191
00:09:00,080 --> 00:09:06,880
Speaker 1: I'm not excited for I was waiting is this WBC Championship.

192
00:09:07,240 --> 00:09:10,480
Speaker 5: And I know Rob is the old guy punching at

193
00:09:10,480 --> 00:09:15,640
Speaker 5: the clouds. He's never satisfied. Everything is bad, nothing's good.

194
00:09:16,080 --> 00:09:18,520
Speaker 5: He's a grumpy old man.

195
00:09:19,120 --> 00:09:21,240
Speaker 1: Took juice away. That's what I have for the show.

196
00:09:22,160 --> 00:09:24,679
Speaker 1: I saw your script. I saw that was all my

197
00:09:24,720 --> 00:09:32,920
Speaker 1: stuff voting. My issue is this, we got cheated. We

198
00:09:33,000 --> 00:09:33,600
Speaker 1: got cheated.

199
00:09:34,559 --> 00:09:36,600
Speaker 2: Venezuela is fine. They beat Italy.

200
00:09:36,760 --> 00:09:40,560
Speaker 5: Italy was a shocker of the tournament anyway. Nobody thought

201
00:09:40,640 --> 00:09:43,320
Speaker 5: that Italy was going anywhere, right, and they wind up

202
00:09:43,920 --> 00:09:46,760
Speaker 5: getting beat by Venezuela came back and beat them or whatever.

203
00:09:46,800 --> 00:09:49,679
Speaker 5: I think Italy was up to nothing yesterday to start

204
00:09:49,679 --> 00:09:50,000
Speaker 5: that game.

205
00:09:50,120 --> 00:09:54,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, we were right here. Here's my disappointment.

206
00:09:56,400 --> 00:09:59,880
Speaker 5: It's not going to feel the same because Japan is

207
00:10:00,160 --> 00:10:06,079
Speaker 5: the big rival. They are Otani and some of these

208
00:10:06,080 --> 00:10:11,280
Speaker 5: other great players from Japan. Let's give Japan credit. They're

209
00:10:11,320 --> 00:10:13,600
Speaker 5: the ones cranking out some of the greatest players now,

210
00:10:13,880 --> 00:10:16,600
Speaker 5: like left and right, right, this.

211
00:10:16,679 --> 00:10:17,640
Speaker 2: Is our game.

212
00:10:19,000 --> 00:10:23,200
Speaker 5: And the double day was invented here, and they have

213
00:10:23,360 --> 00:10:26,680
Speaker 5: played baseball for a long time in Japan, and man

214
00:10:26,760 --> 00:10:31,560
Speaker 5: are they good. And we will not get that, and

215
00:10:31,600 --> 00:10:34,840
Speaker 5: we will not be able to see the United States

216
00:10:34,960 --> 00:10:40,120
Speaker 5: avenge the loss to Japan. When we had drama, yeah,

217
00:10:40,480 --> 00:10:46,400
Speaker 5: show Hay striking out Mike Trout to end it. It

218
00:10:46,559 --> 00:10:50,680
Speaker 5: had that little while teammates all the other drama. You

219
00:10:50,720 --> 00:10:52,360
Speaker 5: know what I mean, You have a big time player

220
00:10:52,440 --> 00:10:55,520
Speaker 5: up there, big time pitcher, and the hero for Japan

221
00:10:55,640 --> 00:10:58,439
Speaker 5: gets it done, and now tonight.

222
00:11:00,280 --> 00:11:02,480
Speaker 2: Is Venezuela.

223
00:11:02,640 --> 00:11:06,280
Speaker 5: The Dominican Republic couldn't even give us any juice. They

224
00:11:06,320 --> 00:11:09,320
Speaker 5: were dancing and hitting home runs and running around the

225
00:11:09,320 --> 00:11:13,680
Speaker 5: field and waving flags in the crowd, all that, and

226
00:11:13,720 --> 00:11:19,000
Speaker 5: then they get a measly one run and that's it.

227
00:11:19,200 --> 00:11:23,760
Speaker 5: Stranded guys, poor base running. So the United States can

228
00:11:23,800 --> 00:11:28,040
Speaker 5: win and people will celebrate in wave fags on all

229
00:11:28,040 --> 00:11:31,240
Speaker 5: that kind of stuff. Fine, you want to pop champagne

230
00:11:31,280 --> 00:11:34,040
Speaker 5: and enjoy it. Great, I just don't think it's gonna

231
00:11:34,080 --> 00:11:37,280
Speaker 5: have the same feel as if it was against Japan,

232
00:11:37,360 --> 00:11:39,280
Speaker 5: the best I think, one of the best in the

233
00:11:40,040 --> 00:11:41,439
Speaker 5: world now in baseball.

234
00:11:41,559 --> 00:11:44,520
Speaker 1: You absolutely want to stack wins and you like, we

235
00:11:44,520 --> 00:11:46,000
Speaker 1: always talk about it in any sport, you and I

236
00:11:46,040 --> 00:11:47,520
Speaker 1: sit next to each other and say, look, you beat

237
00:11:47,520 --> 00:11:49,320
Speaker 1: who's in front of you, right, you beat the schedule.

238
00:11:49,640 --> 00:11:51,520
Speaker 1: And that's what America has to do. They have no

239
00:11:51,600 --> 00:11:53,839
Speaker 1: choice but to beat Venezuela. They would have preferred at

240
00:11:53,840 --> 00:11:56,560
Speaker 1: this stage it beat Japan at this stage for it

241
00:11:56,600 --> 00:11:58,480
Speaker 1: to be the d R something where it be juicy.

242
00:11:58,760 --> 00:12:01,520
Speaker 1: We have some rivalry with you know, as far as

243
00:12:01,559 --> 00:12:03,880
Speaker 1: you're trying to avenge. You got storylines with d R

244
00:12:03,920 --> 00:12:05,480
Speaker 1: because they say they're the best. No, we're gonna prove

245
00:12:05,520 --> 00:12:07,000
Speaker 1: we're the best. So you would hope you would have

246
00:12:07,080 --> 00:12:08,960
Speaker 1: something like that fact there is you gotta be who's

247
00:12:09,000 --> 00:12:10,280
Speaker 1: in front of you. But you know what, it reminds

248
00:12:10,320 --> 00:12:13,560
Speaker 1: me of, what's that during the eighties in the NBA

249
00:12:14,520 --> 00:12:17,360
Speaker 1: it was kind of a letdown when Magic and the

250
00:12:17,440 --> 00:12:19,760
Speaker 1: Lakers will play anyone else, or in the Celtics with

251
00:12:19,840 --> 00:12:23,040
Speaker 1: Larry Bird will play anyone else but each other. You

252
00:12:23,080 --> 00:12:26,240
Speaker 1: are excited. NBA Finals, this is kind of the Golden era.

253
00:12:26,559 --> 00:12:28,680
Speaker 1: It's really starting to grow. The game is becoming what

254
00:12:28,760 --> 00:12:32,720
Speaker 1: we would know it to be today. And Magic and Layer, Oh,

255
00:12:32,920 --> 00:12:34,480
Speaker 1: you're like Magic and the Sixers.

256
00:12:35,320 --> 00:12:38,400
Speaker 2: All right, here we go Celtics and Houston.

257
00:12:39,040 --> 00:12:41,480
Speaker 1: That happened a couple of times, as two of Bird's

258
00:12:41,480 --> 00:12:43,600
Speaker 1: three championships were against the Rockets back in the eighties.

259
00:12:43,640 --> 00:12:46,040
Speaker 1: So it has that feel where you're excited you got

260
00:12:46,080 --> 00:12:48,040
Speaker 1: one of the teams there, whether it be the Lakers

261
00:12:48,320 --> 00:12:50,720
Speaker 1: or in the case the Celtics, and you're excited we're

262
00:12:50,720 --> 00:12:53,960
Speaker 1: about to get Lakers Celtics again, and you got another team.

263
00:12:53,960 --> 00:12:55,480
Speaker 1: You got the Pistons kind of crept up in there.

264
00:12:55,520 --> 00:12:57,880
Speaker 1: A lot of people upset about that it was Lakers Pistons.

265
00:12:57,920 --> 00:12:59,320
Speaker 1: So that's what it feels like to me, where you

266
00:12:59,360 --> 00:13:02,480
Speaker 1: got one of the there, you got America there, and

267
00:13:02,520 --> 00:13:05,280
Speaker 1: you needed that other person another team, whether it be

268
00:13:05,400 --> 00:13:08,800
Speaker 1: Japan or whether it be dr and the champion in

269
00:13:08,880 --> 00:13:12,240
Speaker 1: a championship games, all the marbles for you know, to

270
00:13:12,280 --> 00:13:14,199
Speaker 1: be making a big deal tonight coming up here in

271
00:13:14,200 --> 00:13:15,400
Speaker 1: about forty five minutes or so.

272
00:13:15,440 --> 00:13:18,079
Speaker 5: Because if it wasn't the Brackets and they beat the

273
00:13:18,080 --> 00:13:21,640
Speaker 5: Dominican Republic right which the way that they were clubbing everybody,

274
00:13:21,720 --> 00:13:24,559
Speaker 5: it would have been like, wow, okay, if they beat Japan,

275
00:13:24,800 --> 00:13:25,280
Speaker 5: it would be.

276
00:13:25,280 --> 00:13:29,359
Speaker 1: Revenged percent something you needed that. If they lose to Venezuela,

277
00:13:29,480 --> 00:13:32,680
Speaker 1: what will it be for us? It'll be a letdown

278
00:13:32,679 --> 00:13:36,440
Speaker 1: for a day. But again, because Americans care more about

279
00:13:36,480 --> 00:13:38,600
Speaker 1: the World Series, I think, well, all that suck. How

280
00:13:38,640 --> 00:13:40,600
Speaker 1: we just lose to them, go and we'll be over

281
00:13:40,640 --> 00:13:43,560
Speaker 1: in twenty four to thirty six hours. If we win,

282
00:13:43,800 --> 00:13:45,480
Speaker 1: I almost feel the same way, maybe you know, like

283
00:13:45,480 --> 00:13:47,600
Speaker 1: oh that was nice, we want and you starting we.

284
00:13:47,600 --> 00:13:51,199
Speaker 5: Turn the page and get ready to agree because tomorrow

285
00:13:51,360 --> 00:13:53,040
Speaker 5: is one week from the start of the season.

286
00:13:53,040 --> 00:13:54,880
Speaker 1: When you start to hear about that, you start to

287
00:13:54,920 --> 00:13:57,160
Speaker 1: hear how guy's health. They're getting better. This guy might

288
00:13:57,160 --> 00:13:59,280
Speaker 1: make it for opening Day, and all the storylines for

289
00:13:59,280 --> 00:14:02,680
Speaker 1: the for MLB. For us are the countries. I told

290
00:14:02,679 --> 00:14:04,720
Speaker 1: you how I feel. I think they absolutely value this

291
00:14:04,760 --> 00:14:06,360
Speaker 1: more than we do. They take this life or death

292
00:14:06,400 --> 00:14:08,760
Speaker 1: some countries. For us, it's great, we get it again.

293
00:14:08,800 --> 00:14:11,160
Speaker 1: It's a notch on the belt. However, we want the

294
00:14:11,200 --> 00:14:13,520
Speaker 1: Mariners to win, the Yankees to win, the Dodgers to win,

295
00:14:13,520 --> 00:14:16,160
Speaker 1: the Tigers to win, the Orioles, whoever your squad is.

296
00:14:16,240 --> 00:14:18,240
Speaker 2: That's what we're gonna be focusing on in a week,

297
00:14:18,440 --> 00:14:20,840
Speaker 2: all right, eight seven seven ninety nine on Fox, we

298
00:14:20,920 --> 00:14:21,680
Speaker 2: want to hear from you.

299
00:14:21,840 --> 00:14:26,080
Speaker 5: Eight seven seven nine nine six sixty three sixty nine.

300
00:14:26,240 --> 00:14:31,880
Speaker 5: Does this WBC classic have a little less juice because

301
00:14:31,960 --> 00:14:33,080
Speaker 5: Japan's not there.

302
00:14:32,960 --> 00:14:35,080
Speaker 1: Little dries like a chicken breast. That's why you don't

303
00:14:35,120 --> 00:14:37,520
Speaker 1: like them, little chicken brust. I need thighs with a

304
00:14:37,560 --> 00:14:42,000
Speaker 1: little juice to it. We didn't get the thighs. We

305
00:14:42,040 --> 00:14:44,280
Speaker 1: got the chicken breast. We didn't get the dad. Where

306
00:14:44,320 --> 00:14:44,640
Speaker 1: are you?

307
00:14:44,880 --> 00:14:49,000
Speaker 5: I mean or am I misreading the room? Maybe we're

308
00:14:49,000 --> 00:14:51,920
Speaker 5: misreading the room and people are good geeked. The game

309
00:14:52,040 --> 00:14:55,960
Speaker 5: start to forty five minutes and they're they're thrilled. They

310
00:14:56,000 --> 00:14:58,040
Speaker 5: can't wait to watch it. Want to see the United

311
00:14:58,040 --> 00:15:00,840
Speaker 5: States win the wb see Classic.

312
00:15:01,160 --> 00:15:01,960
Speaker 2: We've seen it.

313
00:15:02,640 --> 00:15:05,960
Speaker 5: The crowds, the ratings, the noise, people are into it.

314
00:15:05,960 --> 00:15:06,680
Speaker 2: It's a great thing.

406
00:18:59,320 --> 00:19:04,199
Speaker 8: One Hey man, you know, you know they still got

407
00:19:04,200 --> 00:19:05,720
Speaker 8: a little bit of hype down here, you know, a

408
00:19:05,800 --> 00:19:09,399
Speaker 8: couple of people. What happened was that the wrong people

409
00:19:09,440 --> 00:19:12,240
Speaker 8: caught wind of it, you know, and started to pushing

410
00:19:12,320 --> 00:19:15,720
Speaker 8: back on it and started with the NBA.

411
00:19:16,160 --> 00:19:19,760
Speaker 1: You know, listen, we are we are men of faith.

412
00:19:19,800 --> 00:19:22,240
Speaker 1: But back in the day, when you know Chili, you

413
00:19:22,280 --> 00:19:23,440
Speaker 1: know you got to keep it on the low.

414
00:19:24,280 --> 00:19:26,000
Speaker 9: Well, you know, I'm a new so you know how to.

415
00:19:25,960 --> 00:19:28,680
Speaker 2: Go bo said. Enough said.

416
00:19:29,520 --> 00:19:33,239
Speaker 9: But I think the Lakers, I think it'll show up

417
00:19:33,240 --> 00:19:36,240
Speaker 9: with those guys once the series starts. I considered them

418
00:19:36,280 --> 00:19:39,720
Speaker 9: tied for the fourth best team UH in the West,

419
00:19:39,760 --> 00:19:43,720
Speaker 9: behind the thunderspurs Nuggets. But what happens is, I think

420
00:19:43,760 --> 00:19:45,440
Speaker 9: once you get into a series and you're playing well

421
00:19:45,440 --> 00:19:47,600
Speaker 9: every two nights or so, on the third night is

422
00:19:47,640 --> 00:19:50,520
Speaker 9: how it kind of goes. I think that's when you

423
00:19:50,680 --> 00:19:54,880
Speaker 9: start seeing the defensive deficiency show up. And even even

424
00:19:54,920 --> 00:19:57,679
Speaker 9: if they try to play defense, shooting had to have,

425
00:19:57,920 --> 00:19:59,680
Speaker 9: you know, you have to have legs and shooters too,

426
00:19:59,720 --> 00:20:02,919
Speaker 9: So as you're going through those series and you're trying

427
00:20:02,960 --> 00:20:07,280
Speaker 9: to play defense, you're also wearing his shooting legs too.

428
00:20:07,400 --> 00:20:11,000
Speaker 9: So I think if it comes between Luca and Austin Reed,

429
00:20:11,040 --> 00:20:13,199
Speaker 9: if they have to save their legs the defense and shooting,

430
00:20:13,240 --> 00:20:15,760
Speaker 9: I think it's gonna be the offense all day. And

431
00:20:16,359 --> 00:20:19,080
Speaker 9: I think that's where the problem will even show up,

432
00:20:19,080 --> 00:20:22,360
Speaker 9: even more so with those young guns, with the thunder,

433
00:20:22,520 --> 00:20:24,600
Speaker 9: the sperits, and I think even different when they're all

434
00:20:24,640 --> 00:20:27,040
Speaker 9: healthy and they have their rotation. I still think they're

435
00:20:27,040 --> 00:20:28,920
Speaker 9: a better team than the Lakers. So I think it's

436
00:20:28,960 --> 00:20:31,760
Speaker 9: okay now, but I'm like you, guys, I just don't

437
00:20:31,800 --> 00:20:35,200
Speaker 9: think they have enough to be a real contender.

438
00:20:35,400 --> 00:20:37,560
Speaker 2: It's the depth other teams.

439
00:20:37,560 --> 00:20:40,160
Speaker 1: Man, a bunch of guys, a bunch of energy coming

440
00:20:40,160 --> 00:20:42,040
Speaker 1: off off the bench starting It don't matter.

441
00:20:42,119 --> 00:20:43,400
Speaker 2: Let's try to squeezing another one.

442
00:20:43,440 --> 00:20:43,600
Speaker 4: Real.

Speaker 11: genuinely just loves the game, loves everything about it. He's

533
00:24:22,280 --> 00:24:26,080
Speaker 11: old fashioned, he's just a loves to watch film, loves

534
00:24:26,080 --> 00:24:29,119
Speaker 11: to study old players, love the history of the game.

535
00:24:29,880 --> 00:24:32,680
Speaker 11: And you see it when you watch him play. He's

536
00:24:32,680 --> 00:24:36,600
Speaker 11: just a fantastic player. Just his ability to make everybody

537
00:24:36,640 --> 00:24:42,160
Speaker 11: around him better, but at the same time still able

538
00:24:42,200 --> 00:24:45,520
Speaker 11: to amplify his individual skills. And it's been successful for

539
00:24:45,560 --> 00:24:47,040
Speaker 11: the Arkansas razorback so far.

540
00:24:47,440 --> 00:24:49,399
Speaker 1: Well have you coached you coached him up as your nephew,

541
00:24:49,440 --> 00:24:52,080
Speaker 1: right you were you able to continue? Would you? Were

542
00:24:52,119 --> 00:24:54,200
Speaker 1: you there early on in kind of his progression.

543
00:24:54,640 --> 00:24:57,960
Speaker 11: Oh yeah, man, I mean from I mean from five

544
00:24:58,160 --> 00:25:02,239
Speaker 11: six years old. You know certain kids. Man, I've been

545
00:25:02,280 --> 00:25:07,440
Speaker 11: around so many kids and there's just no when there's.

546
00:25:07,280 --> 00:25:09,159
Speaker 2: One and everybody ain't making it.

547
00:25:09,160 --> 00:25:11,719
Speaker 5: But shaw, you know, I'm not trying to rain on

548
00:25:11,760 --> 00:25:14,640
Speaker 5: everybody's parade, but everybody's parents got those kids out there

549
00:25:14,920 --> 00:25:16,920
Speaker 5: thinking everybody gonna make it, everybody gonna get it. Do

550
00:25:16,960 --> 00:25:20,239
Speaker 5: you want scholarship? It's just not possible. But when you

551
00:25:20,280 --> 00:25:25,200
Speaker 5: see somebody with exceptional talent, it stands out.

552
00:25:25,520 --> 00:25:28,320
Speaker 11: One hundred percent, agree, Rob, like this kid. You look

553
00:25:28,359 --> 00:25:30,680
Speaker 11: at it. I don't know the exact statistics, y'all can

554
00:25:30,680 --> 00:25:33,360
Speaker 11: look it up, but I think there's only three percent

555
00:25:33,920 --> 00:25:37,200
Speaker 11: of kids that go on to play Division one like basketball.

556
00:25:37,280 --> 00:25:40,240
Speaker 11: So that means that there's one hundred people in the gym,

557
00:25:40,359 --> 00:25:44,320
Speaker 11: only three of it, right, are gonna play Division one basketball.

558
00:25:44,400 --> 00:25:47,960
Speaker 11: So so to be in the top percent of that

559
00:25:48,119 --> 00:25:51,919
Speaker 11: three percent, I mean, you have to be really special.

560
00:25:51,960 --> 00:25:54,240
Speaker 11: When I saw that with him when he was when

561
00:25:54,280 --> 00:25:56,280
Speaker 11: he was a little kid, man, he was just different.

562
00:25:56,359 --> 00:26:00,200
Speaker 11: He walked different, he talked different, he just went about

563
00:26:00,240 --> 00:26:03,840
Speaker 11: it different. And I'm like, hey man, this dude's gonna

564
00:26:03,840 --> 00:26:05,600
Speaker 11: be special. So I was just able to kind of

565
00:26:06,520 --> 00:26:08,959
Speaker 11: target that at an early age. And his dad did

566
00:26:09,000 --> 00:26:12,800
Speaker 11: a terrific job of just nurturing his talent and just

567
00:26:12,920 --> 00:26:16,800
Speaker 11: keeping them in the gym and meeting his son halfway.

568
00:26:16,880 --> 00:26:19,480
Speaker 11: And you're seeing, you're seeing the fruits of all that

569
00:26:19,600 --> 00:26:21,400
Speaker 11: work right now on display.

570
00:26:21,720 --> 00:26:22,200
Speaker 2: Awesome.

571
00:26:22,359 --> 00:26:25,760
Speaker 5: Let's get to the tournament and Duke and Boozer. How

572
00:26:25,760 --> 00:26:28,800
Speaker 5: about they have a tough road even as a number

573
00:26:28,840 --> 00:26:31,320
Speaker 5: one seed right where they are. Can they get through?

574
00:26:31,440 --> 00:26:33,000
Speaker 5: Can they make it to the championship.

575
00:26:33,680 --> 00:26:36,840
Speaker 11: Yes, it's gonna be really hard for Duke, just because

576
00:26:36,880 --> 00:26:40,320
Speaker 11: they have a lot of injuries. They you know, they

577
00:26:40,320 --> 00:26:44,320
Speaker 11: lost a point guard Foster, the bigs hurt a little bit.

578
00:26:44,680 --> 00:26:47,800
Speaker 11: He's a little banged up. So it's gonna be it's

579
00:26:47,840 --> 00:26:52,640
Speaker 11: gonna be difficult for them. I see Duke being one

580
00:26:52,680 --> 00:26:57,960
Speaker 11: of the teams that could drop early because not because

581
00:26:57,960 --> 00:27:01,040
Speaker 11: they're not good enough to go all the way. It's

582
00:27:01,080 --> 00:27:04,080
Speaker 11: about the teams that are healthy at this time of

583
00:27:04,119 --> 00:27:06,080
Speaker 11: the year, and you know, they're a little banged up,

584
00:27:06,080 --> 00:27:07,440
Speaker 11: so they're vulnerable right now.

585
00:27:07,960 --> 00:27:09,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, I want to ask you about that.

586
00:27:09,680 --> 00:27:12,640
Speaker 1: Obviously, they got the Boozer brothers and h there's other

587
00:27:12,800 --> 00:27:16,119
Speaker 1: amazing fat freshmen around the league, around college as well.

588
00:27:16,320 --> 00:27:18,760
Speaker 1: What about older teams teams, it seems like those are

589
00:27:18,760 --> 00:27:20,440
Speaker 1: still the teams that win. Teams that have a bunch

590
00:27:20,480 --> 00:27:22,240
Speaker 1: of older transfers. You look at a team like maybe

591
00:27:22,240 --> 00:27:25,879
Speaker 1: in Houston, Florida got some older guys. How important is

592
00:27:25,880 --> 00:27:27,120
Speaker 1: that when it comes tournament time?

593
00:27:27,720 --> 00:27:30,600
Speaker 11: It's very important because you know the guys that's been

594
00:27:30,640 --> 00:27:34,920
Speaker 11: there before. You create better synergy. And anytime you're you're

595
00:27:35,160 --> 00:27:37,920
Speaker 11: you're doing something for the second, third, or fourth time,

596
00:27:38,000 --> 00:27:40,320
Speaker 11: it just it just kind of gives you that that

597
00:27:40,440 --> 00:27:42,879
Speaker 11: confidence to go in and win games. And remember I

598
00:27:42,920 --> 00:27:44,840
Speaker 11: came on here on the show last year and told

599
00:27:44,880 --> 00:27:46,680
Speaker 11: you that Florida was gonna win at all. I told

600
00:27:46,680 --> 00:27:49,600
Speaker 11: you guys that last year. You l it, Yeah, and

601
00:27:49,640 --> 00:27:51,439
Speaker 11: they end up they end up winning it. You know,

602
00:27:51,480 --> 00:27:53,840
Speaker 11: they're just they're they're they're really good. That's not my

603
00:27:53,920 --> 00:27:56,560
Speaker 11: pick this year, but uh, they're one of the teams

604
00:27:56,600 --> 00:27:58,560
Speaker 11: that's going to be really dangerous because, like you said,

605
00:27:58,560 --> 00:28:01,960
Speaker 11: those those juniors and seniors and those fifty year seniors

606
00:28:01,960 --> 00:28:05,480
Speaker 11: and really good guard play. But you need guards to win.

607
00:28:05,520 --> 00:28:08,360
Speaker 11: In March, Houston has guards. They have a fifth year

608
00:28:09,080 --> 00:28:12,320
Speaker 11: two they got two like fifth year guys in Sharp

609
00:28:12,840 --> 00:28:16,879
Speaker 11: and Milos, and then they have great freshmen and Flemings

610
00:28:16,920 --> 00:28:20,720
Speaker 11: and Sanak and Tuggler is probably the best headge defender

611
00:28:20,800 --> 00:28:24,080
Speaker 11: in all of college basketball. So Houston does have the

612
00:28:24,280 --> 00:28:27,560
Speaker 11: makeup to do it. So it'll be interesting to see

613
00:28:27,600 --> 00:28:29,840
Speaker 11: how they see what they can u where they'll fall.

614
00:28:30,119 --> 00:28:32,280
Speaker 5: I've been waiting for you to predict that Tomas or

615
00:28:32,359 --> 00:28:33,600
Speaker 5: Michigan State with one again.

616
00:28:33,640 --> 00:28:35,639
Speaker 2: But I'll be waiting for however, I'll been waiting for

617
00:28:35,680 --> 00:28:38,960
Speaker 2: twenty five years. That's another one. I'm no comment on

618
00:28:39,000 --> 00:28:40,160
Speaker 2: that one. Yeah, trust me.

619
00:28:40,240 --> 00:28:42,240
Speaker 1: We've been having all the comments the last few days

620
00:28:42,240 --> 00:28:44,200
Speaker 1: with Shot every every minute he gets a chance. It's

621
00:28:44,240 --> 00:28:47,040
Speaker 1: been thirty five years. He already been going at Jim Bayhan.

622
00:28:47,160 --> 00:28:47,920
Speaker 1: Take them fifty years.

623
00:28:47,920 --> 00:28:51,560
Speaker 5: They only got one fifty five years, fifty five years.

624
00:28:52,840 --> 00:28:53,680

786
00:35:38,760 --> 00:35:42,279
Speaker 1: running the spotlight, no but your pump, right. But I

787
00:35:42,280 --> 00:35:44,400
Speaker 1: think it's like so now boom, you're in the spotlight.

788
00:35:44,440 --> 00:35:46,040
Speaker 1: And then you're like, now it becomes well, what do

00:36:08,840 --> 00:36:11,360
Speaker 1: be in the background, take care of the fam. Some

800
00:36:11,400 --> 00:36:13,279
Speaker 1: people want to want a little bit of that spot like, boy,

801
00:36:13,320 --> 00:36:15,720
Speaker 1: you couldn't handle that. Imagine that, and we should say

802
00:36:15,920 --> 00:36:20,799
Speaker 1: it's too nothing. Venezuela. Steve de Sega's going to give

806
00:36:27,880 --> 00:36:30,360
Speaker 5: sometimes it's too much. It's over the top. You know.

807
00:36:30,800 --> 00:36:34,000
Speaker 5: For some people's spouses this can't help it, and other

808
00:36:34,080 --> 00:36:35,680
Speaker 5: ones just they're just content.

809
00:36:35,800 --> 00:36:37,960
Speaker 1: I'm going to raise the family because who's the other one?

810
00:36:38,040 --> 00:36:41,160
Speaker 1: Matt Matthew Stafford's people always mad at her. She's throwing

811
00:36:41,200 --> 00:36:44,960
Speaker 1: pretzels at people. I mean, I'm just with Mustard, you

812
00:36:45,000 --> 00:36:48,200
Speaker 1: know what I'm saying. You're saying patting the stats too.

813
00:36:48,400 --> 00:36:52,279
Speaker 5: Yes, you know she's throwing like four pretzels, but then

814
00:36:52,480 --> 00:36:55,799
Speaker 5: you know they're reporting that she threw eight proze's at like, yeah,

815
00:36:56,400 --> 00:36:57,600
Speaker 5: a little lecture Mustard to it.

816
00:36:57,800 --> 00:37:01,320
Speaker 1: Yeah, it be interesting to see. Last point for me

817
00:37:01,360 --> 00:37:03,520
Speaker 1: with with the Warriors, will all three of them go

818
00:37:03,600 --> 00:37:06,640
Speaker 1: out at the same time? Steph Draymond and Steve Kerr.

819
00:37:07,560 --> 00:37:10,080
Speaker 1: I think Steve Kurr can. I think he would be

820
00:37:10,120 --> 00:37:12,759
Speaker 1: the one to leave first. Like I can see him

821
00:37:12,760 --> 00:37:14,920
Speaker 1: saying I've done it all. We know he had doesn't

822
00:37:15,600 --> 00:37:17,520
Speaker 1: physical issues, you know he doesn't, but.

823
00:37:17,560 --> 00:37:20,800
Speaker 2: He also doesn't want to coach young players, like like

824
00:37:20,920 --> 00:37:24,439
Speaker 2: he said it right, he quoted quoted it's hard.

825
00:37:24,520 --> 00:37:26,800
Speaker 1: I mean, dude, he went from being with the Spurs

826
00:37:26,840 --> 00:37:28,239
Speaker 1: as a player and the Bulls and a lot of

827
00:37:28,280 --> 00:37:30,080
Speaker 1: winning that you finally get to the Warriors.

828
00:37:30,120 --> 00:37:32,080
Speaker 2: You got that thing going to just start and rebuild,

829
00:37:32,120 --> 00:37:34,880
Speaker 2: and everybody ain't built for that. Do you think he

830
00:37:34,920 --> 00:37:36,319
Speaker 2: would leave on his own or do you think they

831
00:37:36,360 --> 00:37:39,200
Speaker 2: would fire him on his own? Even if it's a

832
00:37:39,239 --> 00:37:40,640
Speaker 2: Mike town to leave on his own, I don't know,

833
00:37:41,000 --> 00:37:43,560
Speaker 2: Like a wing wing. How many seasons like they have

834
00:37:43,760 --> 00:37:47,200
Speaker 2: this year do you think he has because they haven't

835
00:37:47,200 --> 00:37:51,799
Speaker 2: been very good. I think Steve kink that's what I said.

836
00:37:52,040 --> 00:37:54,400
Speaker 2: One more and it's like, Okay, we're done. We had

837
00:37:54,400 --> 00:37:54,680
Speaker 2: a run.

838
00:37:54,800 --> 00:37:57,600
Speaker 1: Not that Steph's long, but that Steve will say I

839
00:37:57,680 --> 00:38:00,239
Speaker 1: had a run, and he'll go do TV. Somebody hire

840
00:38:00,360 --> 00:38:02,080

00:39:10,880 --> 00:39:11,759

Speaker 4: A D.

869
00:39:16,960 --> 00:39:19,880
Speaker 2: Let's let's don't put a button on this.

870
00:39:21,520 --> 00:39:23,200
Speaker 1: I'm gonna make it about step but I want to

871
00:39:23,200 --> 00:39:26,640
Speaker 1: make you personal with you first, obviously, Steph. You know

872
00:39:26,760 --> 00:39:28,520
Speaker 1: he we know what he is, we know what he

873
00:39:28,600 --> 00:39:30,120
Speaker 1: means to the game, his legacy and all that. But

874
00:39:30,200 --> 00:39:33,000
Speaker 1: he said recently he's nowhere near retiring. Let me ask

875
00:39:33,040 --> 00:39:36,480
Speaker 1: you this, you yourself, How does a guy know when

876
00:39:36,520 --> 00:39:37,400
Speaker 1: it's time to retire?

877
00:39:37,760 --> 00:39:38,600
Speaker 2: Is it just a game?

878
00:39:38,800 --> 00:39:40,560
Speaker 1: Is it just you know, I'm just doesn't wanting to

879
00:39:40,560 --> 00:39:42,759
Speaker 1: be with the family because Steph said he's no eight near,

880
00:39:42,840 --> 00:39:44,719
Speaker 1: but he's thirty eight. He's still playing well, but it's

881
00:39:44,760 --> 00:39:46,560
Speaker 1: the injuries starting to pile up. The teams aren't good.

882
00:39:46,880 --> 00:39:49,080
Speaker 1: So obviously your situation may not have been his, But

883
00:39:49,160 --> 00:39:51,040
Speaker 1: just so twofold, what do you think of Steph saying

884
00:39:51,040 --> 00:39:53,080
Speaker 1: that and and also even yourself when you know it's.

885
00:39:53,000 --> 00:39:56,759
Speaker 4: Time, Well, I mean, guys are retired when they're ready

886
00:39:56,800 --> 00:39:59,759
Speaker 4: to go. I'd have I mean, I don't really know

887
00:40:00,120 --> 00:40:03,120
Speaker 4: when the right time is to retire, because one way,

888
00:40:03,560 --> 00:40:05,560
Speaker 4: guys retire and we say, oh, you know what, they

889
00:40:05,680 --> 00:40:08,319
Speaker 4: left too early, And then guys retire we say, oh,

890
00:40:08,400 --> 00:40:10,400
Speaker 4: you know what, they left two years too late. So

891
00:40:10,520 --> 00:40:13,080
Speaker 4: I don't really know when the right time is to retire.

892
00:40:13,440 --> 00:40:15,560
Speaker 4: I knew it was time to retire because the things

893
00:40:15,600 --> 00:40:19,480
Speaker 4: that I grew passionate about about this ward of basketball

894
00:40:19,560 --> 00:40:22,040
Speaker 4: I was no longer passionate about. So then my family

895
00:40:22,120 --> 00:40:25,080
Speaker 4: became my priority. So like as opposed to getting up

896
00:40:25,120 --> 00:40:28,279
Speaker 4: at fix and then working out and then coming back

897
00:40:28,320 --> 00:40:30,480
Speaker 4: at nine and then coming back at noon and then

898
00:40:30,520 --> 00:40:32,640
Speaker 4: coming back at four and then going back in the

899
00:40:32,719 --> 00:40:35,040
Speaker 4: evening and painting one on one full court. Now it's like,

900
00:40:35,120 --> 00:40:36,400
Speaker 4: you know what, I would rather just be at home

901
00:40:36,440 --> 00:40:38,680
Speaker 4: in my family, right, And then your body starts to

902
00:40:38,800 --> 00:40:40,960
Speaker 4: let you know, your body starts to let you know,

903
00:40:41,120 --> 00:40:43,879
Speaker 4: like on back to backs and you know different, three

904
00:40:43,920 --> 00:40:46,439
Speaker 4: games and four nights, you just don't feel the same.

905
00:40:47,080 --> 00:40:49,400
Speaker 4: So for me, it was more like the way my

906
00:40:49,480 --> 00:40:52,279
Speaker 4: body felt along with the lack of passion that I

907
00:40:52,400 --> 00:40:54,839
Speaker 4: had when I first entered the NBA, as I did

908
00:40:54,880 --> 00:40:56,120
Speaker 4: as opposed the year thirteen.

909
00:40:56,480 --> 00:40:58,880
Speaker 5: And the other thing too, is for a lot of people,

910
00:40:59,480 --> 00:41:02,480
Speaker 5: enjuries ended a lot of careers. Isaiah Thomas, I could

911
00:41:02,520 --> 00:41:04,640
Speaker 5: go on and on and on. You know where it

912
00:41:04,880 --> 00:41:09,640
Speaker 5: just gives out and and you just decide, okay, I'm rehabit,

913
00:41:10,000 --> 00:41:10,479
Speaker 5: I'm good.

914
00:41:10,800 --> 00:41:13,920
Speaker 4: After that, you want to leave on your own terms.

915
00:41:14,480 --> 00:41:16,080
Speaker 4: You would love to leave on your own terms, but

916
00:41:16,200 --> 00:41:19,359
Speaker 4: everybody's not blessed with that opportunity. You know, the thing

917
00:41:19,440 --> 00:41:22,800
Speaker 4: about retiring, You know, some guys will will do the

918
00:41:22,880 --> 00:41:26,000
Speaker 4: whole social media thing. You know what, this game of

919
00:41:26,080 --> 00:41:28,880
Speaker 4: basketball has been great for me. You know what happens

920
00:41:29,160 --> 00:41:32,360
Speaker 4: to most guys. The phone stops ringing. That's how you

921
00:41:32,440 --> 00:41:35,080
Speaker 4: know you retired, because the phone stops ringing. And it's

922
00:41:35,120 --> 00:41:37,239
Speaker 4: not just the fact that you're retiring, it's the fact

923
00:41:37,239 --> 00:41:38,880
Speaker 4: that there's no more interest for you.

924
00:41:39,120 --> 00:41:42,000
Speaker 2: What you bring up, Dwight Howard. We didn't mention Dwight Howard.

925
00:41:42,040 --> 00:41:53,520
Speaker 2: I'm just rough and tony, like, right, why are you

926
00:41:53,560 --> 00:41:54,279
Speaker 2: gotta be like that?

927
00:41:54,520 --> 00:41:57,080
Speaker 4: I'm sorry, they already already know what. I don't know

928
00:41:57,120 --> 00:41:58,040
Speaker 4: how you get down Roight?

929
00:41:58,160 --> 00:41:59,920
Speaker 2: Yeah, you know it, you know you know?

930
00:42:00,000 --> 00:42:00,719
Speaker 4: Are you good there?

931
00:42:00,960 --> 00:42:04,160
Speaker 5: Yes? The Lakers they're off to a nice they got

932
00:42:04,200 --> 00:42:07,040
Speaker 5: a nice thing. Six in a row, They've got nine

933
00:42:07,080 --> 00:42:09,520
Speaker 5: of the last ten. You know, they got a nice

934
00:42:09,560 --> 00:42:13,440
Speaker 5: run going. They being some good teams defensively, I just

935
00:42:13,560 --> 00:42:14,560
Speaker 5: can't buy into them.

936
00:42:15,200 --> 00:42:18,360
Speaker 4: No, I'm not either. I'm like, you know what's amazing

937
00:42:18,440 --> 00:42:22,600
Speaker 4: to me, Like with certain teams, the narrative around teams

938
00:42:22,719 --> 00:42:25,880
Speaker 4: change like the weather, and it drives me crazy. So

939
00:42:26,480 --> 00:42:29,840
Speaker 4: the Lakers will do this right now, and then everybody goes, oh,

940
00:42:29,880 --> 00:42:32,839
Speaker 4: the Lakers contenders, Oh, well, maybe they're and then they

941
00:42:32,920 --> 00:42:35,399
Speaker 4: lose two games in a row and they're say, oh man,

942
00:42:35,480 --> 00:42:39,000
Speaker 4: it's over. Like no, it's a I feel the same

943
00:42:39,040 --> 00:42:42,759
Speaker 4: way about the Lakers right now that I did a

944
00:42:42,920 --> 00:42:45,520
Speaker 4: month ago or two months ago. This winning nine of

945
00:42:45,600 --> 00:42:47,600
Speaker 4: ten and winning six in a row, whatever it may be,

946
00:42:48,000 --> 00:42:50,600
Speaker 4: has not changed my thought process about them. Are they

947
00:42:50,680 --> 00:42:54,200
Speaker 4: talented yes, can they score yes? Have they figure some

948
00:42:54,320 --> 00:42:58,080
Speaker 4: things out, yes, especially making Lebron the third option as

949
00:42:58,120 --> 00:43:01,960
Speaker 4: far as USET is concerned. But when you stack them

950
00:43:02,080 --> 00:43:04,879
Speaker 4: up against other teams in the Western Conference, that's where

951
00:43:04,920 --> 00:43:07,719
Speaker 4: my issue come. And it's been this work all year.

952
00:43:08,040 --> 00:43:10,120
Speaker 4: There was never point this year while I was like, man,

953
00:43:10,239 --> 00:43:12,400
Speaker 4: the Lakers can win it all. No, because you look

954
00:43:12,480 --> 00:43:15,759
Speaker 4: at it teams like Oklahoma City and Denver and San

955
00:43:15,840 --> 00:43:18,680
Speaker 4: Antonio and some of these other teams that are going

956
00:43:18,719 --> 00:43:22,200
Speaker 4: to present problems in the Western Conference. If the Lakers

957
00:43:22,239 --> 00:43:24,400
Speaker 4: get the right matchup in the first round, which I

958
00:43:24,480 --> 00:43:26,960
Speaker 4: think for them would be Houston, then they can get

959
00:43:27,040 --> 00:43:29,400
Speaker 4: to the second round. Outside of that, it's gonna be

960
00:43:29,400 --> 00:43:29,880
Speaker 4: a struggle.

961
00:43:30,640 --> 00:43:32,520
Speaker 1: Well, i'll tell you what they beat Heuston last night

962
00:43:32,800 --> 00:43:35,279
Speaker 1: in a close one, but Shangoon didn't play. You're talking

963
00:43:35,320 --> 00:43:37,480
Speaker 1: another twenty one twenty two points a game that was

964
00:43:37,520 --> 00:43:38,399
Speaker 1: a missing there show.

965
00:43:38,760 --> 00:43:41,080
Speaker 4: Yeah, But for me, it's not even about the Lakers.

966
00:43:41,400 --> 00:43:44,640
Speaker 4: It's about the fact that that Houston did Kevin Durant

967
00:43:44,680 --> 00:43:49,000
Speaker 4: a disservice by not going out and getting someone, and.

968
00:43:49,719 --> 00:43:53,399
Speaker 2: They all yit, they knew it. Yeah, why were they doing?

969
00:43:53,560 --> 00:43:55,720
Speaker 4: Agreed? Do you know. I'm gonna tell you what's amazing

970
00:43:55,840 --> 00:43:59,399
Speaker 4: to me about having these conversations because my timeline last

971
00:43:59,480 --> 00:44:03,560
Speaker 4: night it's full of people killing Kevin Durant, killing Kevin

972
00:44:03,640 --> 00:44:06,320
Speaker 4: Durant with the six turnovers and so and sybols. And

973
00:44:06,480 --> 00:44:10,480
Speaker 4: for me, I wish that fans will focus more on

974
00:44:10,640 --> 00:44:13,640
Speaker 4: the people that are in charge of roster construction as

975
00:44:13,680 --> 00:44:15,840
Speaker 4: the players, the players that are put in a position

976
00:44:15,960 --> 00:44:18,839
Speaker 4: that Kevin Durant put in. Now it's me crazy.

977
00:44:18,920 --> 00:44:21,280
Speaker 5: I agree with that, Like they knew what they needed

978
00:44:21,360 --> 00:44:23,640
Speaker 5: and they refuse to go get it. I was in

979
00:44:23,719 --> 00:44:26,600
Speaker 5: Detroit for years. They had a good baseball team, the Tigers,

980
00:44:26,960 --> 00:44:28,520
Speaker 5: and their bullpen was an issue.

981
00:44:28,920 --> 00:44:31,200
Speaker 2: They never won a World Series. That had a really

982
00:44:31,280 --> 00:44:31,799
Speaker 2: good team.

983
00:44:32,200 --> 00:44:34,600
Speaker 5: They went to the World Series twice, do you know

984
00:44:34,680 --> 00:44:37,480
Speaker 5: what I mean, Antonio, But they never got the closer

985
00:44:37,560 --> 00:44:39,600
Speaker 5: that they needed, so they never won.

986
00:44:39,840 --> 00:44:40,719
Speaker 2: It was Dumby.

987
00:44:41,560 --> 00:44:43,880
Speaker 4: There are certain teams, there are certain teams that are

988
00:44:43,880 --> 00:44:48,600
Speaker 4: a good team, but they're lacking in certain areas. Houston,

989
00:44:48,840 --> 00:44:51,879
Speaker 4: all years, it's been the lack of shooting. All year

990
00:44:51,920 --> 00:44:53,640
Speaker 4: has been the lack of shooting. That's not something that

991
00:44:53,760 --> 00:44:57,680
Speaker 4: this creeked in Now all year it's been everything is

992
00:44:57,760 --> 00:45:00,640
Speaker 4: on Kevin Durant shoulders. He's going they have a chance

993
00:45:00,680 --> 00:45:03,040
Speaker 4: to win. I called the game with the Pelicans earlier

994
00:45:03,160 --> 00:45:06,000
Speaker 4: this year where the Pelicans were down twenty seven points

995
00:45:06,239 --> 00:45:08,440
Speaker 4: in the Warners and came back to be Houston. You

996
00:45:08,480 --> 00:45:11,359
Speaker 4: know what they did. They double Kevin Durant every single

997
00:45:11,440 --> 00:45:13,880
Speaker 4: time he touched the basketball. And as the polls to

998
00:45:13,960 --> 00:45:17,520
Speaker 4: focusing on Kevin Durant, how about the roster construction around

999
00:45:17,600 --> 00:45:21,440
Speaker 4: him where those guys like last night, had an opportunity

1000
00:45:21,520 --> 00:45:25,040
Speaker 4: to play four three burst the Lakers and scored six

1001
00:45:25,239 --> 00:45:27,839
Speaker 4: points in the last six minutes of the game. That's

1002
00:45:27,880 --> 00:45:30,439
Speaker 4: not on Kevin Durant. Could get make better decisions. Yes,

1003
00:45:31,120 --> 00:45:34,160
Speaker 4: the roster construction for some of these teams is the issue,

1004
00:45:34,440 --> 00:45:34,719
Speaker 4: not the.

1005
00:45:34,760 --> 00:45:38,680
Speaker 1: Star player, Antonio Daniels, NBA Champs Series, x MNBA radio

1006
00:45:38,680 --> 00:45:41,560
Speaker 1: and of course Publicans TV analyst, Fox Sports NBA analysts

1007
00:45:41,560 --> 00:45:44,439
Speaker 1: as well. On with the ACABA Robin Kelvin, he talked

1008
00:45:44,480 --> 00:45:46,720
Speaker 1: about that Katie sani You know, he said, I'm the offense.

1009
00:45:46,719 --> 00:45:48,480
Speaker 1: You don't want to hear that, especially from a guy

1010
00:45:48,560 --> 00:45:50,440
Speaker 1: that old. You wanted to beat a couple other players.

1011
00:45:50,760 --> 00:45:53,000
Speaker 1: Losing Fred van Vliet was huge for them, But moving on,

1012
00:45:53,320 --> 00:45:55,360
Speaker 1: I want to go to the Eastern Conference of the

1013
00:45:55,440 --> 00:45:57,640
Speaker 1: Pistons get a big win over the Wizards, big by

1014
00:45:57,760 --> 00:46:00,640
Speaker 1: meaning the score not they could go the opponent poinst

1015
00:46:00,680 --> 00:46:03,600
Speaker 1: being lost to Toronto, right they lost to Toronto, but

1016
00:46:03,680 --> 00:46:07,640
Speaker 1: they obviously leading the conference right now Boston I think

1017
00:46:07,680 --> 00:46:09,799
Speaker 1: a cuff still a couple of the games behind them.

1018
00:46:10,960 --> 00:46:13,080
Speaker 1: But how good is Boston gonna be with now with

1019
00:46:13,200 --> 00:46:15,680
Speaker 1: Tatum getting you know, some games under his belt, what

1020
00:46:15,760 --> 00:46:16,759
Speaker 1: do you expect from them?

1021
00:46:17,120 --> 00:46:19,239
Speaker 2: And if you're the Pistons, what are you looking at like?

1022
00:46:19,280 --> 00:46:20,960
Speaker 2: How are you saying, no, we really want to still

1023
00:46:21,040 --> 00:46:22,320
Speaker 2: be the best team in this conference?

1024
00:46:23,120 --> 00:46:25,480
Speaker 4: Well? I think the thing is they can finish as

1025
00:46:25,520 --> 00:46:28,160
Speaker 4: the best team in the conference. My issue with Detroit

1026
00:46:28,400 --> 00:46:32,080
Speaker 4: is they lacked shooting. They don't have enough shooting. They've

1027
00:46:32,120 --> 00:46:34,160
Speaker 4: won games this year where they hit four threes and

1028
00:46:34,280 --> 00:46:37,080
Speaker 4: five to threes. What's really missing is what they had

1029
00:46:37,200 --> 00:46:40,239
Speaker 4: last year. They haven't elite Beasley last year him nor

1030
00:46:40,280 --> 00:46:43,960
Speaker 4: the way Junior last year. That's their issue. A lot

1031
00:46:44,080 --> 00:46:48,320
Speaker 4: is on Kay cunningham shoulders, but similar to Houston in

1032
00:46:48,440 --> 00:46:52,040
Speaker 4: a different six because they're better defensively and they also

1033
00:46:52,160 --> 00:46:57,360
Speaker 4: have Jalen Gerns and Take Cunningham has a great duo.

1034
00:46:58,120 --> 00:47:02,080
Speaker 4: They lacked shooting, and it's difficult in today's inn be

1035
00:47:02,200 --> 00:47:05,359
Speaker 4: a a patient space and versatility if you are going

1036
00:47:05,400 --> 00:47:08,799
Speaker 4: into the playoffs and you lack three point shooting. That's

1037
00:47:08,840 --> 00:47:11,359
Speaker 4: what I could now, you can tilt the floor toward

1038
00:47:11,440 --> 00:47:14,560
Speaker 4: Kate Cunningham. You can loan up for Kate Cunningham because

1039
00:47:14,600 --> 00:47:17,160
Speaker 4: they're not going out to Ron Holland and as Sir

1040
00:47:17,320 --> 00:47:20,000
Speaker 4: Thompson and Tobias Harris and some of these other guys

1041
00:47:20,440 --> 00:47:24,200
Speaker 4: that like I would love for Detroit to continue to

1042
00:47:24,400 --> 00:47:26,960
Speaker 4: grow and advance. And I told you guys earlier because

1043
00:47:27,000 --> 00:47:30,040
Speaker 4: I see them getting into the Eastern Conference finals, I could.

1044
00:47:30,560 --> 00:47:33,440
Speaker 4: But the lack of shooting for me is problematic.

1045
00:47:33,800 --> 00:47:36,640
Speaker 1: I'm shocked to your point earlier, Rob Rob. Rob's been

1046
00:47:36,640 --> 00:47:38,840
Speaker 1: talking about that for weeks. Why didn't they go address that,

1047
00:47:38,920 --> 00:47:40,920
Speaker 1: you know, they go getting the league basy because he's

1048
00:47:40,960 --> 00:47:43,359
Speaker 1: not he was clear of the right.

1049
00:47:43,400 --> 00:47:45,719
Speaker 2: Are just look at the numbers like like they're at

1050
00:47:45,760 --> 00:47:47,760
Speaker 2: the bottom. They're in the bottom third.

1051
00:47:47,920 --> 00:47:52,200
Speaker 4: So there's a reason that Orlando hasn't progressed because you

1052
00:47:52,280 --> 00:47:54,839
Speaker 4: have so many guys that do the same thing. If

1053
00:47:54,920 --> 00:47:57,440
Speaker 4: you have too many men ranged guys on your roster's

1054
00:47:57,520 --> 00:47:59,879
Speaker 4: not gonna work. They went out and gave them fourth

1055
00:48:00,239 --> 00:48:04,120
Speaker 4: rump picks for Desmond Bans. There is no more value

1056
00:48:04,280 --> 00:48:07,200
Speaker 4: skill in today's NBA, even shooting, and a lot of

1057
00:48:07,239 --> 00:48:09,919
Speaker 4: teams lack it. But if you lack it, it's hard

1058
00:48:10,040 --> 00:48:13,160
Speaker 4: to advance and win big times. You may get to

1059
00:48:13,200 --> 00:48:15,640
Speaker 4: the playoffs, you may get to the first round, but

1060
00:48:15,840 --> 00:48:17,319
Speaker 4: outside of that, it's gonna be tough.

1061
00:48:17,600 --> 00:48:18,839
Speaker 2: Well team that doesn't lack it out.

1062
00:48:18,840 --> 00:48:21,759
Speaker 1: The other part I was asking you is Boston's what's

1063
00:48:21,800 --> 00:48:24,440
Speaker 1: their ceiling now they back to championship pedigree.

1064
00:48:25,520 --> 00:48:27,640
Speaker 4: I think they are. I mean the thing is, I

1065
00:48:27,680 --> 00:48:30,640
Speaker 4: don't know, there's been nothing that I've seen from Boston

1066
00:48:31,160 --> 00:48:35,160
Speaker 4: that debuts that that combats that they've only gotten better.

1067
00:48:35,280 --> 00:48:38,840
Speaker 4: They've added a one of the probably top ten players

1068
00:48:38,880 --> 00:48:40,880
Speaker 4: in the league, and they were already in second in

1069
00:48:40,920 --> 00:48:41,760
Speaker 4: the Eastern Conference.

1070
00:48:41,840 --> 00:48:45,120
Speaker 5: Yep, that's scary. And the way they held it together.

1071
00:48:45,680 --> 00:48:48,200
Speaker 5: They dumped all the older players thinking that this was

1072
00:48:48,239 --> 00:48:50,640
Speaker 5: gonna be like a bridge year or you know, like

1073
00:48:50,719 --> 00:48:53,520
Speaker 5: they were kind of writing it off, and those guys responded.

1074
00:48:53,880 --> 00:48:54,560
Speaker 2: They look good.

1075
00:48:54,600 --> 00:48:54,800
Speaker 4: To me.

1076
00:48:55,040 --> 00:48:56,560
Speaker 2: I think they're a favorite.

1077
00:48:56,880 --> 00:48:59,839
Speaker 4: They look great. And the thing is, I don't think

1078
00:49:00,200 --> 00:49:03,200
Speaker 4: Jason Tatum comes back. If they're in eighth place, which

1079
00:49:03,320 --> 00:49:05,440
Speaker 4: is where many at must stop that they would be

1080
00:49:05,560 --> 00:49:08,440
Speaker 4: around this time in the play, I don't think Jason Tatum.

1081
00:49:08,600 --> 00:49:11,160
Speaker 4: I think Jason Tatum, honestly, I don't know this for

1082
00:49:11,320 --> 00:49:13,719
Speaker 4: sure work, but I think he comes back because he

1083
00:49:13,840 --> 00:49:15,719
Speaker 4: feels like they have a legitimate chance to be the

1084
00:49:15,800 --> 00:49:18,200
Speaker 4: best team in the Eastern Conference and to represent the

1085
00:49:18,280 --> 00:49:20,320
Speaker 4: East in the NBA Finals.

1086
00:49:21,400 --> 00:49:25,520
Speaker 2: I agree, you get it. I agree. Had the season

1087
00:49:25,600 --> 00:49:29,120
Speaker 2: falling apart, he was taking his time, no doubt, no

1088
00:49:29,280 --> 00:49:31,560
Speaker 2: doubt he well a D. We appreciate it as always,
