I 11 00:00:50,880 --> 00:00:54,440 Speaker 2: have not talked much about my trip to Japan. I 12 00:00:55,320 --> 00:00:59,480 Speaker 2: don't know. There's conflicting opinions on if on these podcasts. 13 00:01:00,080 --> 00:01:03,800 Speaker 2: You know I should dive into that at some level 14 00:01:04,240 --> 00:01:07,039 Speaker 2: and demands I think needs some help with his headphones, guys. 15 00:01:07,120 --> 00:01:10,760 Speaker 2: So I'll talk about this for a second. But some 16 00:01:10,800 --> 00:01:13,240 Speaker 2: people would say, hey, people are opting to spend their 17 00:01:13,280 --> 00:01:15,119 Speaker 2: time with you. They want to know about your life. 18 00:01:15,120 --> 00:01:17,440 Speaker 2: Other people are like, now we're here to hear about sports. 19 00:01:17,880 --> 00:01:19,720 Speaker 2: So I didn't really get into the details of it, 20 00:01:19,800 --> 00:01:23,800 Speaker 2: but what I will tell you is this, I had 21 00:01:23,880 --> 00:01:26,400 Speaker 2: no jet lag the entire time I was in Japan, 22 00:01:26,440 --> 00:01:29,080 Speaker 2: and I was like, Man, this jet lag stuff everyone's 23 00:01:29,080 --> 00:01:32,600 Speaker 2: always whining about is a bunch of nonsense. Since I 24 00:01:32,760 --> 00:01:38,039 Speaker 2: got back from Japan, I have gotten up for the 25 00:01:38,160 --> 00:01:46,759 Speaker 2: day at three am, three thirty am, four am, and 26 00:01:46,840 --> 00:01:51,560 Speaker 2: today one thirty in the morning and just can't go back. 27 00:01:51,640 --> 00:01:54,160 Speaker 2: I've been up since one thirty in the morning today 28 00:01:54,640 --> 00:01:58,240 Speaker 2: and I just can't get back on like a regular schedule. 29 00:01:58,680 --> 00:02:04,200 Speaker 2: So this is literally cup of coffee number seven. It's 30 00:02:04,320 --> 00:02:06,560 Speaker 2: ten thirty in the morning, and I know it sounds like, Nick, 31 00:02:06,560 --> 00:02:08,440 Speaker 2: if you trying to go back to sleep, why are 32 00:02:08,440 --> 00:02:10,520 Speaker 2: you drinking coffee? Once I realized I can't go back 33 00:02:10,560 --> 00:02:13,840 Speaker 2: to sleep, I'm still it doesn't matter. So that's that's 34 00:02:13,880 --> 00:02:16,120 Speaker 2: what my week has been like. Well, I'm gonna force 35 00:02:16,160 --> 00:02:18,679 Speaker 2: myself to stay up late one of these days try 36 00:02:18,720 --> 00:02:21,040 Speaker 2: to get back on schedule. So the jet lag didn't 37 00:02:21,080 --> 00:02:23,240 Speaker 2: hit me in Japan, it's hitting me here in the States. 38 00:02:23,280 --> 00:02:25,280 Speaker 2: But we have a ton to do today. Here's what 39 00:02:25,320 --> 00:02:28,399 Speaker 2: we are not doing on the show today. Mike Tyson's 40 00:02:28,400 --> 00:02:31,080 Speaker 2: gonna fight Jake Paul. That's the dumbest thing ever. George 41 00:02:31,080 --> 00:02:34,320 Speaker 2: Brett wants a Kaufman Stadium urinal. George Brett's kind of 42 00:02:34,360 --> 00:02:36,640 Speaker 2: an odd dude, I'll be honest with you. And Joey 43 00:02:36,720 --> 00:02:41,200 Speaker 2: Chestnut wins a Parrogi eating contest. I think the producers 44 00:02:41,360 --> 00:02:44,920 Speaker 2: think I have far more interest in Joey Chestnut than 45 00:02:44,919 --> 00:02:46,799 Speaker 2: I actually do, because a year and a half ago 46 00:02:46,840 --> 00:02:50,920 Speaker 2: I gave an all time great right public defender for 47 00:02:51,160 --> 00:02:54,200 Speaker 2: Joey Chestnut. It was, you know, it was really it 48 00:02:54,320 --> 00:02:57,000 Speaker 2: was one of my more brilliant moments on the pod. 49 00:02:57,040 --> 00:02:59,120 Speaker 2: But I don't really give a damn about Joey Chestnut. 50 00:02:59,160 --> 00:03:01,160 Speaker 2: And he was mean to my friend DA when he 51 00:03:01,200 --> 00:03:03,639 Speaker 2: had him in studio years ago, so I actually don't 52 00:03:03,639 --> 00:03:05,720 Speaker 2: even really like that fella. But I just, you know, 53 00:03:05,960 --> 00:03:07,600 Speaker 2: the public defender you have to defend, do you after 54 00:03:07,600 --> 00:03:09,040 Speaker 2: you defend demons? How are you? 55 00:03:09,680 --> 00:03:11,000 Speaker 3: I'm doing good, doing great? 56 00:03:13,400 --> 00:03:19,679 Speaker 2: So have you have you waded into any of the 57 00:03:19,720 --> 00:03:25,240 Speaker 2: internet discussion that I spurred with our semi viral ten 58 00:03:25,320 --> 00:03:28,240 Speaker 2: minute clip about the Lebron Jordan stuff. 59 00:03:29,360 --> 00:03:33,360 Speaker 3: Yeah, so I've seen much less serious arguments on it, 60 00:03:33,400 --> 00:03:35,280 Speaker 3: But yes, I definitely see it. 61 00:03:36,840 --> 00:03:40,680 Speaker 2: So if I made for a moment. So our pal 62 00:03:40,800 --> 00:03:46,000 Speaker 2: Bamani Jones sent out this tweet this morning and it 63 00:03:46,080 --> 00:03:48,680 Speaker 2: was pretty good. He writes, I'll hand it to my 64 00:03:48,720 --> 00:03:52,320 Speaker 2: buddy Nick. He gets y'all to still engage that goat debate. 65 00:03:52,920 --> 00:03:55,800 Speaker 2: All his logic and theory works except for one thing. 66 00:03:56,440 --> 00:03:59,240 Speaker 2: We were there, we saw it. We were there in 67 00:03:59,320 --> 00:04:02,640 Speaker 2: ninety one, we were there in ninety six, and this 68 00:04:02,720 --> 00:04:04,960 Speaker 2: is the big one. We were there in twenty ten 69 00:04:05,080 --> 00:04:08,880 Speaker 2: and twenty eleven. It's over. And then he writes, and yes, 70 00:04:08,960 --> 00:04:11,640 Speaker 2: I turned off, replies because if I don't want to 71 00:04:11,680 --> 00:04:15,240 Speaker 2: hear what my intelligent good friend has to say about this, 72 00:04:15,600 --> 00:04:17,280 Speaker 2: I sure as bleep don't want to hear what you 73 00:04:17,320 --> 00:04:19,960 Speaker 2: guys think about it. And then Bomani argued with people 74 00:04:20,000 --> 00:04:21,920 Speaker 2: about it for an hour, because no matter how much 75 00:04:21,920 --> 00:04:24,040 Speaker 2: you say you don't want to engage in the goat debate, 76 00:04:24,400 --> 00:04:28,720 Speaker 2: you just can't help yourself. And here's what I'll say, 77 00:04:28,800 --> 00:04:31,000 Speaker 2: Because we have a lot of stuff to get into. 78 00:04:31,080 --> 00:04:34,640 Speaker 2: The Lakers loss last night, the Warriors blew out the Bucks, 79 00:04:34,960 --> 00:04:37,839 Speaker 2: the bills are falling apart at the seams, all of that, 80 00:04:39,680 --> 00:04:44,679 Speaker 2: But I want to revisit, just for a moment demons. 81 00:04:44,839 --> 00:04:50,520 Speaker 2: Here's the thing, man, I won the argument. And you 82 00:04:50,560 --> 00:04:54,320 Speaker 2: know why I won the argument because I once again, 83 00:04:56,040 --> 00:05:03,520 Speaker 2: I once again have forced people to unknowingly concede ground. 84 00:05:03,560 --> 00:05:08,200 Speaker 2: To me, this has been a multi year effort and 85 00:05:08,320 --> 00:05:10,839 Speaker 2: every and I don't do it that often, but every 86 00:05:10,920 --> 00:05:16,960 Speaker 2: time I engage, I attack a very specific flank of 87 00:05:17,040 --> 00:05:21,640 Speaker 2: the Jordans Zelotz army and I weaken it enough to 88 00:05:21,680 --> 00:05:24,960 Speaker 2: where they have to send troops that way, which weakens 89 00:05:25,000 --> 00:05:29,320 Speaker 2: the overall front that they have built up over twenty 90 00:05:29,320 --> 00:05:32,080 Speaker 2: five years. So this time I said, you know what, 91 00:05:34,040 --> 00:05:39,760 Speaker 2: everybody just concedes the whole peak argument. So I am 92 00:05:39,800 --> 00:05:47,640 Speaker 2: going to, like a surgeon, attack with precision that And 93 00:05:47,760 --> 00:05:51,400 Speaker 2: so the entirety of this week, people have not actually 94 00:05:51,480 --> 00:05:55,840 Speaker 2: been debating who's the goat. They've only been debating who 95 00:05:55,880 --> 00:05:59,400 Speaker 2: had the higher peak. Which the reason I say I 96 00:05:59,480 --> 00:06:04,279 Speaker 2: won is because now three months from now, six months 97 00:06:04,320 --> 00:06:08,080 Speaker 2: from now, anytime, is anyone going to be able to 98 00:06:08,120 --> 00:06:14,800 Speaker 2: say Jordan had the higher peak. It's not debatable, uh yetkinness, 99 00:06:15,160 --> 00:06:17,479 Speaker 2: you guys spend a lot of time debating it. It's 100 00:06:17,560 --> 00:06:22,560 Speaker 2: by definition debatable because you're debating it, So that's debatable, 101 00:06:22,839 --> 00:06:25,960 Speaker 2: you know, what. We didn't talk anything about longevity because 102 00:06:26,000 --> 00:06:30,160 Speaker 2: that is, by the definition not debatable. So now the whole, 103 00:06:30,240 --> 00:06:33,160 Speaker 2: the whole idea one of the one of their last 104 00:06:33,640 --> 00:06:38,120 Speaker 2: bastions of you know, unencroached upon ground, one of their 105 00:06:38,320 --> 00:06:41,000 Speaker 2: last fronts that they could just you know, have a 106 00:06:41,000 --> 00:06:43,720 Speaker 2: few centuries out they didn't have to worry about, they 107 00:06:43,720 --> 00:06:45,840 Speaker 2: didn't have to spend a lot of resources on. They 108 00:06:45,880 --> 00:06:49,400 Speaker 2: have spent all week. Oh they they they've been calling 109 00:06:49,440 --> 00:06:52,239 Speaker 2: in resources, send the memes. 110 00:06:52,200 --> 00:06:53,400 Speaker 3: Send the. 111 00:06:55,960 --> 00:06:59,520 Speaker 2: Exactly. No, they don't none of it. And you know what, 112 00:06:59,560 --> 00:07:02,679 Speaker 2: you servely haven't heard a lot of talk about twenty eleven. 113 00:07:03,440 --> 00:07:06,560 Speaker 2: Haven't heard a lot of talk about swept in the No, no, no, 114 00:07:06,760 --> 00:07:10,360 Speaker 2: because that's not what we're talking about. We're talking about peaks. 115 00:07:10,960 --> 00:07:13,520 Speaker 2: And you want to say it's not a debate, but 116 00:07:13,720 --> 00:07:17,040 Speaker 2: you've spent three days debating it, so it is a debate. 117 00:07:17,360 --> 00:07:19,520 Speaker 2: If I came on this show and I said, you 118 00:07:19,560 --> 00:07:25,800 Speaker 2: know what, I want to talk Mahomes v. Brady, and 119 00:07:25,880 --> 00:07:33,000 Speaker 2: I think Mahomes is the better winner, just the better winner, 120 00:07:33,200 --> 00:07:36,920 Speaker 2: guess what, it wouldn't cause three days of debate because 121 00:07:36,920 --> 00:07:39,800 Speaker 2: that's not debatable at the moment. No, Brady's won seven 122 00:07:39,840 --> 00:07:41,800 Speaker 2: Super Bowls. He beat him head dead in the plaffs. 123 00:07:41,840 --> 00:07:45,520 Speaker 2: It's not debatable, but I said, I said, let's talk peak. 124 00:07:45,640 --> 00:07:48,440 Speaker 2: Something you guys say is not debatable, and now you've 125 00:07:48,440 --> 00:07:51,920 Speaker 2: spent all week debating it. By definition, that is now debatable. 126 00:07:52,000 --> 00:07:54,640 Speaker 2: So take that little piece of argument out of your 127 00:07:54,720 --> 00:07:57,280 Speaker 2: arsenal at it to mine, and you look at the 128 00:07:57,320 --> 00:07:59,600 Speaker 2: scales and all of a sudden, you're like Jesus christ Man, 129 00:08:00,000 --> 00:08:04,440 Speaker 2: we're getting outflanked all over the place. So the Overton 130 00:08:04,560 --> 00:08:07,720 Speaker 2: window has moved once again on the Lebron Jordan debate, 131 00:08:08,120 --> 00:08:13,520 Speaker 2: thanks to yours truly and the number of people who 132 00:08:13,560 --> 00:08:18,360 Speaker 2: are angriest about this that have you know, either some 133 00:08:18,680 --> 00:08:21,800 Speaker 2: type of if you whenever you see the people angriest 134 00:08:21,840 --> 00:08:25,320 Speaker 2: about about the argument, a nice fun thing you can 135 00:08:25,360 --> 00:08:28,480 Speaker 2: do on Twitter is go to their profile and click 136 00:08:28,640 --> 00:08:31,640 Speaker 2: media and see how many tweets you have to scroll 137 00:08:31,720 --> 00:08:35,880 Speaker 2: down before you see a photoshop Lebron James crying tweet 138 00:08:36,160 --> 00:08:41,320 Speaker 2: or some infographic with wildly incorrect information. And you know, 139 00:08:42,559 --> 00:08:45,560 Speaker 2: people are getting nervous, and so yeah, so my work 140 00:08:45,600 --> 00:08:48,920 Speaker 2: here is done. You know, in three months, four months, 141 00:08:49,000 --> 00:08:51,520 Speaker 2: five months, we might re engage once again and so 142 00:08:52,120 --> 00:08:55,160 Speaker 2: I feel great about it. Now to today's show demands, 143 00:08:55,280 --> 00:08:56,080 Speaker 2: what are we starting with? 144 00:08:56,679 --> 00:08:59,440 Speaker 3: I'm glad you feeling great about it, Pops. But yeah, 145 00:08:59,640 --> 00:09:03,800 Speaker 3: so we were originally going to talk about NBA five 146 00:09:04,640 --> 00:09:06,520 Speaker 3: I hear myself in here. We're going to talk about 147 00:09:06,520 --> 00:09:10,040 Speaker 3: an NBA Finals preview and nugget Celtic tonight. But you 148 00:09:10,120 --> 00:09:12,520 Speaker 3: wanted to clear that out to talk about Buffalo clearing 149 00:09:12,559 --> 00:09:16,360 Speaker 3: cap space. So they just cleared I did. They cleared 150 00:09:16,360 --> 00:09:18,559 Speaker 3: thirty five million in cap space by cutting a bunch 151 00:09:18,600 --> 00:09:21,880 Speaker 3: of players and three of their starters and when they're safeties, 152 00:09:21,960 --> 00:09:25,160 Speaker 3: Jordan Poyer, do you think the Bills are throwing in 153 00:09:25,240 --> 00:09:27,199 Speaker 3: the towel or do you think they're getting ready to 154 00:09:27,240 --> 00:09:27,960 Speaker 3: make a big move. 155 00:09:28,960 --> 00:09:30,840 Speaker 2: No, there's no big move they can make. What they're 156 00:09:30,840 --> 00:09:34,320 Speaker 2: doing is they are paying the bill that has come due. 157 00:09:35,080 --> 00:09:38,640 Speaker 2: And folks can say all they want and people think 158 00:09:38,679 --> 00:09:40,160 Speaker 2: I want to talk about this because I want to 159 00:09:40,160 --> 00:09:43,160 Speaker 2: take shots at Buffalo. That's not actually it. That's just 160 00:09:43,200 --> 00:09:46,600 Speaker 2: an added bonus. I want to talk about this because 161 00:09:47,480 --> 00:09:51,000 Speaker 2: my colleagues in the media have done a poor job, 162 00:09:51,080 --> 00:09:56,840 Speaker 2: not all, but some on explaining what the salary cap is, 163 00:09:57,960 --> 00:10:02,480 Speaker 2: and folks think it's fake. Folks think, oh, you can 164 00:10:02,520 --> 00:10:07,640 Speaker 2: always move money around, you can always you know, restructure, 165 00:10:08,640 --> 00:10:15,120 Speaker 2: And that is true to a degree. But eventually all 166 00:10:15,360 --> 00:10:20,880 Speaker 2: of these bills come due, no pun intended, every dollar, 167 00:10:21,679 --> 00:10:25,840 Speaker 2: every single dollar that is paid to a football player 168 00:10:25,960 --> 00:10:30,320 Speaker 2: by the team, at some point shows up on some 169 00:10:30,640 --> 00:10:35,920 Speaker 2: year's cap table. And because of that, the Buffalo Bills 170 00:10:36,880 --> 00:10:40,840 Speaker 2: had to move on from both of their safeties Tredavious White, 171 00:10:41,640 --> 00:10:44,080 Speaker 2: They had to move on from players they would otherwise 172 00:10:44,200 --> 00:10:49,079 Speaker 2: like to keep because they got a little over zealous 173 00:10:49,120 --> 00:10:53,200 Speaker 2: a couple years ago and signed Von Miller to an 174 00:10:53,240 --> 00:10:57,240 Speaker 2: absurd contract because they said, you know what, screw We're 175 00:10:57,240 --> 00:11:01,000 Speaker 2: going all in. We're going for it right now. And 176 00:11:01,240 --> 00:11:03,599 Speaker 2: what they have to show for it is nothing. What 177 00:11:03,720 --> 00:11:05,840 Speaker 2: they have to show for it is some really exciting 178 00:11:05,880 --> 00:11:14,280 Speaker 2: playoff losses. That's it. And the Denver Broncos, you know what, 179 00:11:14,760 --> 00:11:18,000 Speaker 2: now's our chance. We're gonna go get Russell Wilson. We're 180 00:11:18,000 --> 00:11:21,240 Speaker 2: gonna make a significant move. We're gonna sign Randy Gregory, 181 00:11:21,240 --> 00:11:24,760 Speaker 2: We're gonna sign Frank Clark, gonna do all these things. Oh, 182 00:11:25,360 --> 00:11:30,080 Speaker 2: Justin Simmons, the second best player on our team in 183 00:11:30,160 --> 00:11:33,320 Speaker 2: the prime of his career three straight all pros. We 184 00:11:33,440 --> 00:11:39,480 Speaker 2: have to cut you because that bill came due. And 185 00:11:40,559 --> 00:11:48,920 Speaker 2: so there is whenever you see a team go you know, start, 186 00:11:49,520 --> 00:11:55,240 Speaker 2: Whenever you see a team and make a signing and 187 00:11:55,320 --> 00:11:58,280 Speaker 2: you say, oh my god, how do they have the 188 00:11:58,320 --> 00:12:01,920 Speaker 2: money for that? And you turn on TV and they're like, man, 189 00:12:02,960 --> 00:12:07,520 Speaker 2: GMx at it again. He's a real cap magician. What 190 00:12:07,640 --> 00:12:12,760 Speaker 2: that means is he's borrowing from future years and that 191 00:12:12,840 --> 00:12:16,600 Speaker 2: can work. The Bucks did it when Brady was there. 192 00:12:16,840 --> 00:12:19,839 Speaker 2: They won a championship. The Rams did it right when 193 00:12:19,840 --> 00:12:23,400 Speaker 2: they got Stafford. They won a championship. They then had 194 00:12:23,440 --> 00:12:27,800 Speaker 2: some lean times while they cleaned it up. The problem 195 00:12:27,920 --> 00:12:31,000 Speaker 2: is if you do it and don't win a championship 196 00:12:31,480 --> 00:12:35,640 Speaker 2: the next year, you don't want to admit, ah, we 197 00:12:35,640 --> 00:12:38,360 Speaker 2: didn't quite get it all right. Let's borrow from another 198 00:12:38,520 --> 00:12:42,199 Speaker 2: Let's we were borrowing from next year. Now, let's borrow 199 00:12:42,320 --> 00:12:48,520 Speaker 2: more from two years down the road. And eventually it's like, guys, 200 00:12:49,720 --> 00:12:54,440 Speaker 2: we have to be CAP compliant by March thirteenth. We 201 00:12:54,559 --> 00:12:59,920 Speaker 2: are forty million over without adding our draft class, without 202 00:13:00,120 --> 00:13:03,440 Speaker 2: adding free agents. What do we do? And the answer 203 00:13:03,520 --> 00:13:08,200 Speaker 2: is cut players you'd otherwise like to keep and that's 204 00:13:08,240 --> 00:13:09,880 Speaker 2: a tough spot to be in if you got nothing 205 00:13:09,920 --> 00:13:12,680 Speaker 2: to show for it as an added bonus. And this 206 00:13:12,760 --> 00:13:16,800 Speaker 2: is what with respect to the producers, they didn't understand 207 00:13:17,240 --> 00:13:21,000 Speaker 2: was the real this is where it is about Buffalo. 208 00:13:22,160 --> 00:13:28,040 Speaker 2: The real reason seeing the name tra Davious White was 209 00:13:28,160 --> 00:13:33,920 Speaker 2: cut from the Bills really got my heart palpitating. Is 210 00:13:36,880 --> 00:13:41,880 Speaker 2: you know how the Chiefs had the twenty seventh pick 211 00:13:43,160 --> 00:13:46,720 Speaker 2: and they saw Patrick Mahomes and they desperately wanted them, 212 00:13:47,120 --> 00:13:51,880 Speaker 2: and so they traded that pick to Buffalo along with 213 00:13:52,679 --> 00:13:56,760 Speaker 2: another first round pick, another draft capital to go get 214 00:13:56,800 --> 00:14:01,880 Speaker 2: Patrick Mahomes in what is the greatest trade in NFL history. 215 00:14:02,559 --> 00:14:04,520 Speaker 2: And the flip side, you know, kind of the worst 216 00:14:04,640 --> 00:14:07,319 Speaker 2: trade in NFL history for Buffalo because they had Tyrod 217 00:14:07,320 --> 00:14:10,560 Speaker 2: Taylor's their quarterback and Nathan Peterman and they you know, 218 00:14:10,640 --> 00:14:14,360 Speaker 2: they didn't want to draft Patrick Mahomes, the blue chip 219 00:14:14,440 --> 00:14:19,040 Speaker 2: player the Bills got in that trade and he guesses 220 00:14:19,080 --> 00:14:25,920 Speaker 2: who it was. Yeah, they got four players that they 221 00:14:26,000 --> 00:14:29,920 Speaker 2: drafted with those picks the Chiefs traded to him Tradeavious 222 00:14:29,960 --> 00:14:33,520 Speaker 2: White was the last remaining Bill and now he's gone. 223 00:14:35,080 --> 00:14:39,200 Speaker 2: And so in a trade seven years. 224 00:14:38,960 --> 00:14:42,040 Speaker 3: Ago, you know they can finally start fresh. 225 00:14:42,120 --> 00:14:45,680 Speaker 2: Maybe none of that start fresh? Okay, you know that 226 00:14:45,760 --> 00:14:47,360 Speaker 2: is that is a kind way to look at it. 227 00:14:47,400 --> 00:14:50,520 Speaker 2: Another way to look at it is this seven years ago, 228 00:14:50,560 --> 00:14:53,800 Speaker 2: the Chiefs and the Bills made a trade. Since they 229 00:14:53,840 --> 00:14:56,480 Speaker 2: made that trade, the Chiefs have won three Super Bowls, 230 00:14:56,480 --> 00:14:59,160 Speaker 2: been to four, beating the Bills in the playoffs three times. 231 00:15:00,080 --> 00:15:03,760 Speaker 2: The Bills have done nothing. What the Chiefs have left 232 00:15:03,800 --> 00:15:08,920 Speaker 2: from that trade is the most talented player in NFL history. 233 00:15:09,480 --> 00:15:12,120 Speaker 2: And when the Bills have left from that trade is 234 00:15:12,200 --> 00:15:14,800 Speaker 2: sixteen million dollars of dead cap space. 235 00:15:16,680 --> 00:15:17,239 Speaker 3: Thanks. 236 00:15:18,080 --> 00:15:20,880 Speaker 2: I'm not saying it's the Babe Ruth trade because at 237 00:15:21,000 --> 00:15:24,200 Speaker 2: least the Red Sox got the money to, you know, 238 00:15:24,360 --> 00:15:26,760 Speaker 2: put on that Broadway show that the owner was trying 239 00:15:26,800 --> 00:15:29,960 Speaker 2: to put on. It's a little worse, all right, what's next? 240 00:15:30,280 --> 00:15:32,840 Speaker 2: That is true? Look it up. Demands traded Babe Ruth 241 00:15:32,840 --> 00:15:35,160 Speaker 2: because the owner wanted to put on a play, needed 242 00:15:35,200 --> 00:15:37,760 Speaker 2: some pack traded in the Yankees. Yeah, look it up. 243 00:15:37,760 --> 00:15:38,120 Speaker 2: The truth. 244 00:15:41,000 --> 00:15:43,720 Speaker 3: So you put the Lakers yesterday on the show in 245 00:15:43,760 --> 00:15:47,400 Speaker 3: the terrifying for a series or two category, which means 246 00:15:47,400 --> 00:15:52,640 Speaker 3: that they're basically cooked in Cleveland and Miami. Lebron always 247 00:15:52,720 --> 00:15:55,400 Speaker 3: knew the best time to leave with the Lakers. It 248 00:15:55,480 --> 00:15:57,760 Speaker 3: kind of seems like he's trying to stick it out. 249 00:15:58,200 --> 00:15:59,960 Speaker 3: Do you think it'd be better if they just lost 250 00:16:00,320 --> 00:16:02,920 Speaker 3: to make it easier for Lebron, or like winning kind 251 00:16:02,920 --> 00:16:04,640 Speaker 3: of confuse him and make him stay. What do you 252 00:16:04,640 --> 00:16:05,320 Speaker 3: think Lebron should? 253 00:16:05,440 --> 00:16:08,720 Speaker 2: I got you so I know what I want him 254 00:16:08,760 --> 00:16:10,160 Speaker 2: to do, and I think I know what he's going 255 00:16:10,240 --> 00:16:12,400 Speaker 2: to do. But before I do that, let me go 256 00:16:12,600 --> 00:16:15,920 Speaker 2: micro for a moment, because late last night, the Lakers 257 00:16:15,960 --> 00:16:21,440 Speaker 2: lost once again to the Sacramento Kings. Truly baffling performance 258 00:16:21,680 --> 00:16:24,320 Speaker 2: by all parties, except for, of course, Lebron, who had 259 00:16:24,360 --> 00:16:28,720 Speaker 2: thirty one points thirteen assists on ten of sixteen from 260 00:16:28,760 --> 00:16:32,520 Speaker 2: the field. He was excellent, But eight ad does not 261 00:16:32,720 --> 00:16:38,880 Speaker 2: do well with these European sinners. Is Sabonis? I think 262 00:16:38,960 --> 00:16:42,120 Speaker 2: it's nine DeMont de Sabonis. I think it's nine to 263 00:16:42,160 --> 00:16:45,160 Speaker 2: zero in his career against Anthony Davis. You guys can 264 00:16:45,200 --> 00:16:47,200 Speaker 2: fact check me on that. I believe that to be true, 265 00:16:47,680 --> 00:16:52,840 Speaker 2: and that Lakers have lost nine straight to Jokic. These 266 00:16:53,040 --> 00:16:59,240 Speaker 2: these you know, burlier, more physical, but also great passing sinners, 267 00:16:59,280 --> 00:17:01,800 Speaker 2: and it's maybe it's one of the reasons they traditionally 268 00:17:01,840 --> 00:17:04,480 Speaker 2: didn't want to play center. The Lakers, of course didn't 269 00:17:04,480 --> 00:17:08,639 Speaker 2: don't have an actual backup center on the roster NBA caliber. 270 00:17:08,640 --> 00:17:11,960 Speaker 2: I don't care what say Jackson Aeses, So that's a problem. Also, 271 00:17:12,400 --> 00:17:15,720 Speaker 2: if you watched the Lakers Kings game last night, which 272 00:17:15,800 --> 00:17:18,320 Speaker 2: last night I did not watch because, as I said, 273 00:17:18,640 --> 00:17:21,120 Speaker 2: I might, I've had this wild jet leg. I felt 274 00:17:21,119 --> 00:17:23,359 Speaker 2: sleep at nine o'clock last night. But luckily when you 275 00:17:23,400 --> 00:17:25,680 Speaker 2: wake up at one point thirty in the morning, yeah, 276 00:17:25,680 --> 00:17:28,359 Speaker 2: I got plenty of time today to rewatch it this morning. 277 00:17:28,680 --> 00:17:32,280 Speaker 2: What you saw was the Lakers got out to a 278 00:17:32,320 --> 00:17:37,520 Speaker 2: great start, and this is a really important game because 279 00:17:37,520 --> 00:17:40,879 Speaker 2: they're trying to catch the Kings, and the Kings are 280 00:17:40,920 --> 00:17:43,679 Speaker 2: now three and zero against him this year, so if 281 00:17:43,720 --> 00:17:46,000 Speaker 2: there's a if they finished with the same record, the 282 00:17:46,119 --> 00:17:48,800 Speaker 2: Kings will have Tibergers. This is a bad loss. Lakers 283 00:17:48,800 --> 00:17:53,320 Speaker 2: got out to a great start. The starters were cooking 284 00:17:53,359 --> 00:17:56,320 Speaker 2: the Kings for the first six minutes of the game. 285 00:17:56,359 --> 00:18:04,000 Speaker 2: They were up seventeen points early. The starters started and 286 00:18:04,119 --> 00:18:09,480 Speaker 2: played the first six minutes or so together. That lineup 287 00:18:09,800 --> 00:18:15,680 Speaker 2: the starting five the rest of the game played zero 288 00:18:15,800 --> 00:18:21,800 Speaker 2: minutes together. I mean that listen. Sometimes Darvin Ham gets 289 00:18:21,840 --> 00:18:28,359 Speaker 2: over criticized and sometimes Man a week ago, Cam Reddish 290 00:18:28,800 --> 00:18:33,399 Speaker 2: was in your closing lineup against Denver yesterday D and 291 00:18:33,480 --> 00:18:37,720 Speaker 2: B coaches decision. I mean it is it is some 292 00:18:37,880 --> 00:18:42,200 Speaker 2: tough sledding with some of these Darvin Ham coaching decisions, 293 00:18:42,240 --> 00:18:46,119 Speaker 2: and so all of that, you know, is what the 294 00:18:46,200 --> 00:18:50,199 Speaker 2: Lakers are. Lebron is still great, ad He's you know, 295 00:18:50,280 --> 00:18:52,679 Speaker 2: he's had trouble against the Kings and the Nuggets, but 296 00:18:52,720 --> 00:18:57,040 Speaker 2: he's been excellent this year. I you know, way too 297 00:18:57,080 --> 00:19:01,480 Speaker 2: much Torriyan prints in the as diet in my opinion, 298 00:19:01,520 --> 00:19:03,919 Speaker 2: But what are you gonna do? So to get to 299 00:19:04,040 --> 00:19:08,760 Speaker 2: your question, and the producers confirmed it, So bonus nine 300 00:19:08,800 --> 00:19:15,160 Speaker 2: to zero against Anthony Davis's not great. Lebron's not gonna 301 00:19:15,240 --> 00:19:24,240 Speaker 2: leave it bums me out. I wish he would, I 302 00:19:24,240 --> 00:19:26,000 Speaker 2: I don't think. 303 00:19:27,359 --> 00:19:27,520 Speaker 3: So. 304 00:19:27,840 --> 00:19:34,080 Speaker 2: I don't think Bronnie is going to go to the 305 00:19:34,160 --> 00:19:38,720 Speaker 2: Pros next year, and that the Bronnie stuff is a 306 00:19:38,720 --> 00:19:40,960 Speaker 2: whole different discussion, but I don't really want to have 307 00:19:41,000 --> 00:19:44,200 Speaker 2: it right now. I think Bronni's gonna go back to USC. 308 00:19:45,480 --> 00:19:48,240 Speaker 2: I think Lebron wants to be there. I think his 309 00:19:48,359 --> 00:19:52,439 Speaker 2: wife loves LA. I think his businesses love LA. I 310 00:19:52,480 --> 00:19:57,199 Speaker 2: think his family he loves l A. I Bryce is 311 00:19:57,200 --> 00:19:59,320 Speaker 2: playing high school ball. I don't think he wants to. 312 00:19:59,359 --> 00:20:02,360 Speaker 3: Leave much more of the go debate. Does it silence 313 00:20:02,440 --> 00:20:04,240 Speaker 3: if Lebron wins one more ring? 314 00:20:05,720 --> 00:20:05,960 Speaker 2: Well? 315 00:20:06,040 --> 00:20:06,520 Speaker 3: Do you think? 316 00:20:06,560 --> 00:20:15,359 Speaker 2: Here's the thing? I I think there are many people 317 00:20:15,400 --> 00:20:18,080 Speaker 2: that are entrenched and we'll just say, okay, so now 318 00:20:18,119 --> 00:20:21,080 Speaker 2: he's at six, he is at five, but Michael's at six. 319 00:20:21,600 --> 00:20:28,520 Speaker 2: Obviously it would help, But I I don't think I. 320 00:20:28,520 --> 00:20:31,800 Speaker 2: I think it is going to be very, very difficult. 321 00:20:32,040 --> 00:20:36,280 Speaker 2: Lebron right now is at best the fifth best player 322 00:20:36,320 --> 00:20:38,679 Speaker 2: in the league and at worst the tenth best player 323 00:20:38,680 --> 00:20:45,000 Speaker 2: in the league. That sounds great. That guy doesn't typically 324 00:20:45,080 --> 00:20:48,200 Speaker 2: win the title as the as a team's best player. 325 00:20:48,600 --> 00:20:53,199 Speaker 2: That's Jason Tatum's hurdle. Jason Tatum is at best the 326 00:20:53,240 --> 00:20:55,119 Speaker 2: fifth best player in the league and at worst the 327 00:20:55,160 --> 00:20:57,840 Speaker 2: eighth best player in the league. It sounds great except 328 00:20:57,880 --> 00:21:01,359 Speaker 2: for when you realize usually the the title goes to 329 00:21:01,840 --> 00:21:04,159 Speaker 2: one of the three best players in the league. Just 330 00:21:04,320 --> 00:21:09,720 Speaker 2: go down the list of champions over everyone's lifetime ever 331 00:21:10,400 --> 00:21:14,919 Speaker 2: and you can find like three instances in the last 332 00:21:15,040 --> 00:21:20,760 Speaker 2: honestly forty years where that wasn't the case. So it's 333 00:21:20,920 --> 00:21:25,200 Speaker 2: just so. The reason I say that is if Lebron 334 00:21:25,240 --> 00:21:28,520 Speaker 2: were to win a title as the second best guy 335 00:21:28,720 --> 00:21:32,720 Speaker 2: on someone else's team, I don't think it probably moves 336 00:21:32,800 --> 00:21:37,359 Speaker 2: the goat debate that much. Hell, folks, he won a 337 00:21:37,480 --> 00:21:41,000 Speaker 2: title in resounding fashion as the best player on his 338 00:21:41,040 --> 00:21:44,200 Speaker 2: own team, and folks said that one didn't count because 339 00:21:44,240 --> 00:21:48,080 Speaker 2: it was in Orlando at Disney World. Like the idea 340 00:21:48,200 --> 00:21:51,119 Speaker 2: like there, I mean, there's the idea that if he 341 00:21:51,240 --> 00:21:54,280 Speaker 2: wins the title is a second option, folks and be like, well, 342 00:21:54,280 --> 00:21:58,200 Speaker 2: that does it, and so could he. What's so frustrating 343 00:21:58,240 --> 00:22:02,600 Speaker 2: to me is I still think in any given series 344 00:22:03,000 --> 00:22:05,160 Speaker 2: he can turn up and play like one of those 345 00:22:05,200 --> 00:22:07,760 Speaker 2: three best players in the world. But I don't think 346 00:22:07,760 --> 00:22:10,120 Speaker 2: he can do it for two months, and the Lakers 347 00:22:10,119 --> 00:22:13,240 Speaker 2: don't have the supporting cast. So I just think he 348 00:22:13,320 --> 00:22:17,679 Speaker 2: wants to stay in LA. For me, as a fan, 349 00:22:19,000 --> 00:22:22,000 Speaker 2: the best thing that could happen for me is the 350 00:22:22,080 --> 00:22:24,680 Speaker 2: Lakers stab him in the back, be like we don't 351 00:22:24,680 --> 00:22:27,639 Speaker 2: want you anymore, you have to leave. But they're not 352 00:22:27,640 --> 00:22:31,240 Speaker 2: gonna do that, and so I just think the Lakers 353 00:22:31,280 --> 00:22:36,320 Speaker 2: are I mean, they're just eh, They're just fine and 354 00:22:36,520 --> 00:22:37,520 Speaker 2: it's a bummer. All right. 355 00:22:37,640 --> 00:22:40,400 Speaker 3: Next, all right, so you had a very cool, calm 356 00:22:40,440 --> 00:22:45,399 Speaker 3: and collected response on TV with your co host saying 357 00:22:45,400 --> 00:22:48,960 Speaker 3: that Jason Tatum should win the MVP. I think he 358 00:22:49,040 --> 00:22:52,320 Speaker 3: might have walked off. But so it kind of seems 359 00:22:53,040 --> 00:22:54,800 Speaker 3: kind of seems like you're trying to say that Joki 360 00:22:54,920 --> 00:22:57,840 Speaker 3: should be MVP without saying that he should be it 361 00:22:58,920 --> 00:23:00,840 Speaker 3: this so right now is the MVP. 362 00:23:01,960 --> 00:23:08,360 Speaker 2: Right now, Jokic is the m v P. I think no. Yeah, 363 00:23:08,480 --> 00:23:14,000 Speaker 2: with the confirmation, I can develop new opinions also. But 364 00:23:14,840 --> 00:23:21,080 Speaker 2: so a couple things. I was apoplectic at Kevin Wilde's 365 00:23:21,640 --> 00:23:25,719 Speaker 2: about the Tatum stuff because the entirety of his argument 366 00:23:25,880 --> 00:23:28,040 Speaker 2: was the Celtics have the best record, Tatum is their 367 00:23:28,040 --> 00:23:31,320 Speaker 2: best player, and that is just that is not what 368 00:23:31,400 --> 00:23:34,159 Speaker 2: the league MVP is supposed to be. And now it 369 00:23:34,440 --> 00:23:38,960 Speaker 2: very often is the league MVP is on the best team. 370 00:23:39,400 --> 00:23:43,040 Speaker 2: I get that, But the idea that we have to 371 00:23:44,080 --> 00:23:48,240 Speaker 2: Wild's who I adore. Everybody knows how much I love Wilds, 372 00:23:49,040 --> 00:23:55,199 Speaker 2: So I can say this, Wild's trying to turn almost 373 00:23:55,520 --> 00:24:02,720 Speaker 2: any type of award or all time ranking or goat 374 00:24:02,840 --> 00:24:07,919 Speaker 2: discussion or MVP discussion or anything into some dumb man's 375 00:24:08,040 --> 00:24:13,120 Speaker 2: version of QB wins is maddening. It's just then, then 376 00:24:13,200 --> 00:24:17,960 Speaker 2: why have any awards. Just wait until the year's over, 377 00:24:18,600 --> 00:24:21,399 Speaker 2: and whoever wins the championship, that guy's the coach of 378 00:24:21,440 --> 00:24:24,080 Speaker 2: the Year. Their GM's the GM of the Year, their 379 00:24:24,119 --> 00:24:27,040 Speaker 2: best players, the MVP, their first guy off the bench 380 00:24:27,160 --> 00:24:29,840 Speaker 2: is the sixth man, their best rookies, Rookie of the Year. 381 00:24:30,520 --> 00:24:35,320 Speaker 2: He wants to He doesn't want Wimby to win Rookie 382 00:24:35,400 --> 00:24:38,720 Speaker 2: of the Year because the Spurs don't have enough wins. 383 00:24:39,359 --> 00:24:43,000 Speaker 2: It's the Rookie of the Year award. He's like, well, 384 00:24:43,080 --> 00:24:45,000 Speaker 2: the Chets thunder pretty good. I'm like, give me I 385 00:24:45,400 --> 00:24:48,480 Speaker 2: just and so that's what made me walk off the set. 386 00:24:49,400 --> 00:24:51,440 Speaker 2: And I shouldn't talk about Wilds when he's not here 387 00:24:51,440 --> 00:24:55,199 Speaker 2: to defend himself. But when he is around to defend himself, 388 00:24:55,200 --> 00:24:57,880 Speaker 2: he doesn't do a good job on this. He's just like, ah, 389 00:24:58,480 --> 00:25:02,480 Speaker 2: goals to win, Like man, I know that, that's why 390 00:25:02,520 --> 00:25:06,320 Speaker 2: they give a team championship trophy, but that is not 391 00:25:06,440 --> 00:25:10,359 Speaker 2: the league MVP. So that's what frustrated me. It's not 392 00:25:10,480 --> 00:25:13,119 Speaker 2: that I'm naturally have an allergy to Yo get or 393 00:25:13,160 --> 00:25:17,680 Speaker 2: to Tatum being league MVP. The reason Jason Tatum isn't 394 00:25:17,680 --> 00:25:20,400 Speaker 2: the league VP is because Jason Tatum's not the league VP. 395 00:25:21,880 --> 00:25:24,520 Speaker 2: The reason Tatum's not the league MVP is because nobody 396 00:25:24,560 --> 00:25:29,760 Speaker 2: thinks he's more valuable or better than Yo get your Giannis. Nobody, 397 00:25:30,800 --> 00:25:32,160 Speaker 2: literally nobody. 398 00:25:31,720 --> 00:25:33,760 Speaker 3: Probably just like the same type of thing that you 399 00:25:33,840 --> 00:25:36,200 Speaker 3: have with height and quarterbacks, probably just because those guys 400 00:25:36,200 --> 00:25:39,280 Speaker 3: are bigger. Jason Tatum is like three or four inches taller. 401 00:25:41,119 --> 00:25:44,840 Speaker 2: Maybe right now, are you saying if Jason Tatum were taller, 402 00:25:44,920 --> 00:25:47,960 Speaker 2: he might be better. Or if Jason Tatum were taller 403 00:25:48,000 --> 00:25:50,400 Speaker 2: and the exact same player, I would like him more. 404 00:25:50,440 --> 00:25:50,960 Speaker 2: Which are you. 405 00:25:50,960 --> 00:25:54,359 Speaker 3: Saying that one? The second one? You'd like him more 406 00:25:54,359 --> 00:25:55,199 Speaker 3: if you were that? 407 00:25:55,400 --> 00:26:01,119 Speaker 2: No, that is Tatum is Lebron's height. He No, you 408 00:26:01,200 --> 00:26:04,960 Speaker 2: can be that. Silue Steph is six ' three. Steph's 409 00:26:05,000 --> 00:26:05,520 Speaker 2: your side. 410 00:26:05,640 --> 00:26:07,479 Speaker 3: If the candidates you're saying should be over him, we're 411 00:26:07,520 --> 00:26:09,080 Speaker 3: like four or five inches taller than him, So I'm 412 00:26:09,119 --> 00:26:09,640 Speaker 3: just going off. 413 00:26:09,840 --> 00:26:13,040 Speaker 2: But they're better than him. They're also better than him, 414 00:26:13,080 --> 00:26:16,680 Speaker 2: And also Shae has a better argument than Tatum, and 415 00:26:16,760 --> 00:26:18,240 Speaker 2: Shay is way shorter than. 416 00:26:18,200 --> 00:26:23,159 Speaker 3: Him the Celtics. No, you're gonna drive me. 417 00:26:24,800 --> 00:26:31,840 Speaker 2: It's not It is not a Again, is there a 418 00:26:32,080 --> 00:26:36,960 Speaker 2: minimum threshold of winning one's team must do to be 419 00:26:37,040 --> 00:26:41,920 Speaker 2: in the MVP conversation? Absolutely well, Nick, you contradict yourself. No, 420 00:26:42,119 --> 00:26:46,000 Speaker 2: of course I didn't. Because in basketball, in a five 421 00:26:46,080 --> 00:26:49,280 Speaker 2: on five sport, when you play both ends, if you 422 00:26:49,359 --> 00:26:55,320 Speaker 2: are truly an MVP candidate, your team's gotta win, you know, 423 00:26:55,840 --> 00:26:58,720 Speaker 2: obviously more than it loses, and actually has to win 424 00:26:58,880 --> 00:27:03,560 Speaker 2: at a high high light. That's why Luca, despite being 425 00:27:03,800 --> 00:27:08,040 Speaker 2: thirty five, nine and nine, is not right now as 426 00:27:08,119 --> 00:27:11,760 Speaker 2: serious candidate because the team's not good enough. Yes, there's 427 00:27:11,840 --> 00:27:15,479 Speaker 2: a minimum level of winning one's team must do in 428 00:27:15,640 --> 00:27:19,920 Speaker 2: order to demonstrate your value, But the idea that the 429 00:27:19,960 --> 00:27:24,800 Speaker 2: pool of candidates must only be players on the team 430 00:27:24,880 --> 00:27:28,240 Speaker 2: with the best record is the dumbest thing I've ever heard. 431 00:27:29,680 --> 00:27:33,400 Speaker 2: It just doesn't and I didn't do a good job 432 00:27:33,920 --> 00:27:38,000 Speaker 2: explaining on the I got so angry I was. I 433 00:27:38,119 --> 00:27:41,000 Speaker 2: couldn't say it. But we're about to have the oscars 434 00:27:41,080 --> 00:27:45,919 Speaker 2: right the way some of these folks want to do 435 00:27:46,160 --> 00:27:51,800 Speaker 2: League MVP, it would just be this what's best picture? Okay? 436 00:27:52,000 --> 00:27:54,639 Speaker 2: Who was the best actor in that that's the best actor. 437 00:27:54,960 --> 00:27:57,960 Speaker 2: Who's the best supporting actor. That's your best supporting actor. 438 00:27:58,080 --> 00:28:01,119 Speaker 2: Who's the best actress. That's that. It'd be like, well, no, 439 00:28:01,240 --> 00:28:06,520 Speaker 2: but somebody acted better in a different movie that didn't 440 00:28:06,560 --> 00:28:09,440 Speaker 2: win Best Picture. Oh, what's the goal? Is the goal 441 00:28:09,480 --> 00:28:12,320 Speaker 2: to make the best movie possible. If that's the goal, 442 00:28:12,359 --> 00:28:15,640 Speaker 2: then what are we talking about. I mean, it's ridiculous, 443 00:28:15,960 --> 00:28:20,119 Speaker 2: it's just dumb and so and again, I want to 444 00:28:20,160 --> 00:28:23,560 Speaker 2: be clear, because this isn't just wilds and Wild isn't 445 00:28:23,560 --> 00:28:26,640 Speaker 2: here to defend himself. I am not calling Wild's dumb. 446 00:28:26,680 --> 00:28:32,600 Speaker 2: Wild is not dumb. Wild's MVP argument is the argument 447 00:28:32,600 --> 00:28:36,000 Speaker 2: a dumb person would make. That's just a coincidence. All right, 448 00:28:36,080 --> 00:28:40,440 Speaker 2: let's move on. Oh you know what's great about this? 449 00:28:40,560 --> 00:28:43,320 Speaker 2: Hold on, let me say one other thing. What's great 450 00:28:43,360 --> 00:28:46,480 Speaker 2: about this is in the All right, let me paint 451 00:28:46,520 --> 00:28:49,720 Speaker 2: the picture of the first thing's first offices. So on 452 00:28:51,200 --> 00:28:55,120 Speaker 2: the floor where we work. We're not where the show 453 00:28:55,200 --> 00:28:59,040 Speaker 2: is recorded, but where we do all our pre show work. 454 00:28:59,360 --> 00:29:03,040 Speaker 2: You come up the stairs and there's a long, thin hallway, 455 00:29:03,160 --> 00:29:05,040 Speaker 2: and at the end of the hallway is a big 456 00:29:05,080 --> 00:29:09,840 Speaker 2: conference room with a bank of TVs. In that conference 457 00:29:09,920 --> 00:29:14,640 Speaker 2: room is where all the producers work, where Dusty is 458 00:29:14,680 --> 00:29:17,360 Speaker 2: who watches the show. In Dusty every time the pod 459 00:29:17,480 --> 00:29:21,240 Speaker 2: is on, turns it on and plays it volume up. 460 00:29:22,200 --> 00:29:25,760 Speaker 2: Wilds's office is like halfway down the hall, and wild 461 00:29:26,280 --> 00:29:32,880 Speaker 2: has only ever seen the podcast by accident. He's never 462 00:29:32,920 --> 00:29:35,720 Speaker 2: watched it except for when he walks into the conference 463 00:29:35,800 --> 00:29:39,840 Speaker 2: room and says something and it's on. So right now, 464 00:29:39,960 --> 00:29:43,720 Speaker 2: at first things first, what I think is happening is 465 00:29:43,760 --> 00:29:47,560 Speaker 2: Wild's is likely kind of somewhat hearing his name a lot, 466 00:29:48,240 --> 00:29:53,320 Speaker 2: and probably somewhat curious what's being said, but doesn't want 467 00:29:53,360 --> 00:29:59,080 Speaker 2: to actually engage. And the producers in the room, my guess, 468 00:29:59,760 --> 00:30:05,440 Speaker 2: are a stifling a little laughter as to not insult Wilds, 469 00:30:05,480 --> 00:30:08,320 Speaker 2: because again I am not Wilds is a very smart 470 00:30:08,320 --> 00:30:11,240 Speaker 2: guy and the key to the show, and I'm incredibly 471 00:30:11,280 --> 00:30:14,680 Speaker 2: grateful for his to work with him and for his friendship, 472 00:30:15,080 --> 00:30:17,440 Speaker 2: and I'm not calling him dumb. He just makes a 473 00:30:17,440 --> 00:30:20,400 Speaker 2: lot of the same arguments dumb people make and they 474 00:30:20,440 --> 00:30:23,320 Speaker 2: frustrate me because he's better than that. And so that's 475 00:30:23,360 --> 00:30:25,240 Speaker 2: all okay, all right, now, let's move on, go. 476 00:30:25,200 --> 00:30:28,320 Speaker 3: Ahead, all right, Well, speaking to Luca, he's having a 477 00:30:28,320 --> 00:30:32,440 Speaker 3: really good season having Kyrie are obviously gelling together, I 478 00:30:32,440 --> 00:30:35,280 Speaker 3: guess now, obviously because they've lost five of their last 479 00:30:35,320 --> 00:30:38,960 Speaker 3: six games and they're eighth in the West. So if 480 00:30:38,960 --> 00:30:40,840 Speaker 3: the MAVs don't turn it around, do you think it's 481 00:30:40,880 --> 00:30:43,920 Speaker 3: possible that Luca ends up calling it splits with the Mavericks. 482 00:30:45,800 --> 00:30:50,640 Speaker 2: Well, I mean that's everyone's biggest concern, and that's why 483 00:30:50,680 --> 00:30:53,640 Speaker 2: they made the Kyrie trade, was to be like, no, Luca, 484 00:30:53,680 --> 00:30:57,040 Speaker 2: we're serious. But that's what I tell you guys the 485 00:30:57,120 --> 00:31:01,360 Speaker 2: day after they made the Kyrie trade. When Luca eventually 486 00:31:01,480 --> 00:31:04,680 Speaker 2: leaves Dallas, this will be one of the primary reasons 487 00:31:04,720 --> 00:31:05,080 Speaker 2: go ahead. 488 00:31:06,320 --> 00:31:08,560 Speaker 3: What would be one of the primary reasons. What would 489 00:31:08,560 --> 00:31:10,320 Speaker 3: be one of the primary reasons. 490 00:31:10,600 --> 00:31:12,080 Speaker 2: Them trading for Kyrie? 491 00:31:13,880 --> 00:31:16,760 Speaker 3: Yeah, because I thought the way that you I remember 492 00:31:16,800 --> 00:31:18,840 Speaker 3: you speaking of the Kyrie thing, it's just like, oh, 493 00:31:18,880 --> 00:31:20,960 Speaker 3: you just got to sit and stand by until something 494 00:31:21,000 --> 00:31:23,840 Speaker 3: else happens. But it's not. Do you think Kyrie is 495 00:31:23,840 --> 00:31:24,600 Speaker 3: the problem here? 496 00:31:25,840 --> 00:31:28,520 Speaker 2: No, So that's a good point. Kyrie has been on 497 00:31:29,160 --> 00:31:33,000 Speaker 2: great behavior and has conducted himself well. But this is 498 00:31:33,040 --> 00:31:35,760 Speaker 2: one of the other reasons I was so against the trade, 499 00:31:36,360 --> 00:31:41,280 Speaker 2: even without Kyrie, even with him on his best behavior. 500 00:31:41,680 --> 00:31:46,320 Speaker 2: They used all their last remaining assets to get somebody 501 00:31:47,120 --> 00:31:50,240 Speaker 2: who is not at all what they need. If you 502 00:31:50,280 --> 00:31:53,440 Speaker 2: have Luca, you don't need a point. One goal is 503 00:31:53,480 --> 00:31:56,560 Speaker 2: not have another, you know, scorer that needs the ball 504 00:31:56,600 --> 00:31:59,840 Speaker 2: in his hands. That And so you make a good point. 505 00:32:00,120 --> 00:32:02,840 Speaker 2: Kyrie hasn't done anything wrong, and Kyrie's having a great 506 00:32:02,880 --> 00:32:05,720 Speaker 2: season deserves credit for that, but it just doesn't fit. 507 00:32:06,400 --> 00:32:09,200 Speaker 2: And what we've also know about Kyrie, and I'm not 508 00:32:09,200 --> 00:32:12,960 Speaker 2: trying to take shots here, is he's He's never contributed 509 00:32:13,000 --> 00:32:16,680 Speaker 2: to winning in any environment except for the three years 510 00:32:16,680 --> 00:32:19,840 Speaker 2: he played with Lebron before Lebron got there. They didn't 511 00:32:19,840 --> 00:32:23,440 Speaker 2: contribute to winning. With Brooklyn, he didn't, and here he's not. 512 00:32:23,840 --> 00:32:28,360 Speaker 2: So I just thought, so, even if you know everything 513 00:32:28,520 --> 00:32:32,480 Speaker 2: works out with Kyrie, which it has, the winning's not 514 00:32:32,560 --> 00:32:35,680 Speaker 2: gonna come. And I think Luca's gonna want to win. 515 00:32:35,840 --> 00:32:40,880 Speaker 2: So Luca has two years left on his contract, right 516 00:32:43,160 --> 00:32:46,840 Speaker 2: I I'd start getting nervous after this year. 517 00:32:46,840 --> 00:32:47,600 Speaker 3: He has two years. 518 00:32:47,680 --> 00:32:52,880 Speaker 2: If I were Dallas, I'd start getting nervous because now 519 00:32:52,960 --> 00:32:56,160 Speaker 2: Luca's obviously got to own some of this and take 520 00:32:56,240 --> 00:32:58,920 Speaker 2: some accountability for this. He needs to be better on 521 00:32:58,960 --> 00:33:02,520 Speaker 2: the defensive side of the ball, all these things, but 522 00:33:02,640 --> 00:33:06,719 Speaker 2: Luca is by any metric one of the at worst 523 00:33:06,800 --> 00:33:09,880 Speaker 2: five best players in the league. In my opinion, he's 524 00:33:09,920 --> 00:33:14,440 Speaker 2: the third best player in the league, and there's no 525 00:33:14,560 --> 00:33:17,160 Speaker 2: reason for the team to be for the second straight 526 00:33:17,240 --> 00:33:21,720 Speaker 2: year as mediocre as it's been. So yeah, i'd be 527 00:33:21,760 --> 00:33:24,640 Speaker 2: nervous if I were Dallas. All right, that finals preview. 528 00:33:24,640 --> 00:33:26,560 Speaker 2: They wanted to start the show with, we'll do that. Oh, 529 00:33:26,600 --> 00:33:27,760 Speaker 2: go ahead, What were you about to say? 530 00:33:27,840 --> 00:33:30,360 Speaker 3: You were? Yeah, so it seems like you were right 531 00:33:30,360 --> 00:33:32,600 Speaker 3: about what's going on on the third floor. Back to 532 00:33:32,680 --> 00:33:33,040 Speaker 3: the base. 533 00:33:33,200 --> 00:33:37,240 Speaker 2: Oh, Dusty, Dusty chimed in, appreciate that, dust all right, 534 00:33:37,600 --> 00:33:46,040 Speaker 2: Finals preview? Next, what's right? All right? Welcome back in. 535 00:33:46,080 --> 00:33:48,920 Speaker 2: We'll dry with the great episode two nineteen. All right, demons, 536 00:33:49,160 --> 00:33:51,800 Speaker 2: let's get to what should be one of the best 537 00:33:51,800 --> 00:33:53,280 Speaker 2: games of the NBA season night. 538 00:33:53,320 --> 00:33:56,400 Speaker 3: Go ahead, Yes, So the defending champs are playing the 539 00:33:56,400 --> 00:33:58,840 Speaker 3: best team in the NBA as of now, in the Celtics, 540 00:33:59,160 --> 00:34:01,200 Speaker 3: and the Celtics are going to bounce back after they 541 00:34:01,200 --> 00:34:04,120 Speaker 3: blew a lead to the Cleveland on Tuesday. Do you 542 00:34:04,160 --> 00:34:06,200 Speaker 3: think this is a finals preview or what are we 543 00:34:06,240 --> 00:34:07,720 Speaker 3: watching it. What are we watching for? 544 00:34:09,120 --> 00:34:12,240 Speaker 2: Well, listen, I mean Vegas thinks it's a finals preview, 545 00:34:12,480 --> 00:34:17,960 Speaker 2: and I think Denver is incredibly likely to end up 546 00:34:18,320 --> 00:34:21,279 Speaker 2: in the finals on the western side of the bracket. 547 00:34:22,080 --> 00:34:24,040 Speaker 2: By the way, I just thought of this because I 548 00:34:24,080 --> 00:34:27,480 Speaker 2: was trying to think, is there a scenario where you 549 00:34:27,560 --> 00:34:30,359 Speaker 2: could get to go to a finals game? So I'll 550 00:34:30,400 --> 00:34:37,239 Speaker 2: just make this commitment here. If the either LA team 551 00:34:37,320 --> 00:34:40,160 Speaker 2: makes it and Boston makes it, I'll get you some 552 00:34:40,320 --> 00:34:43,600 Speaker 2: bad tickets to one of the games so you can, oh, yeah, 553 00:34:43,640 --> 00:34:46,440 Speaker 2: the let's do it the the Clippers, the Clippers are 554 00:34:46,480 --> 00:34:49,799 Speaker 2: your better bet to end up making the finals than 555 00:34:49,840 --> 00:34:54,399 Speaker 2: the Lakers are. But if either one of her playing, Yeah, 556 00:34:54,440 --> 00:34:56,160 Speaker 2: what do you think? I was saying, Well, I mean, 557 00:34:56,200 --> 00:34:57,719 Speaker 2: how else could we do it? How else can they 558 00:34:57,719 --> 00:34:59,840 Speaker 2: be playing the Celtics? I was saying, because you're a 559 00:35:00,000 --> 00:35:03,239 Speaker 2: Celtics fan. I was saying, if they and there's you 560 00:35:03,280 --> 00:35:03,719 Speaker 2: live in l. 561 00:35:03,719 --> 00:35:07,080 Speaker 3: As the Clippers going to face up with the Nuggets, 562 00:35:07,120 --> 00:35:08,960 Speaker 3: and how are the Lakers gonna We saw how that 563 00:35:09,000 --> 00:35:09,680 Speaker 3: went last year. 564 00:35:10,080 --> 00:35:12,920 Speaker 2: No, right, well, listen, I was they to when I 565 00:35:13,000 --> 00:35:16,000 Speaker 2: made this multi thousand dollars commitment out of nowhere. That 566 00:35:16,160 --> 00:35:18,400 Speaker 2: is I'm probably not gonna have to come through on it, 567 00:35:18,840 --> 00:35:21,960 Speaker 2: but I'm not not saying if it, I'll fly you 568 00:35:22,040 --> 00:35:25,359 Speaker 2: to Denver. I mean they're they're more likely to make it, 569 00:35:25,760 --> 00:35:28,319 Speaker 2: But if it were to happen, I did this for 570 00:35:28,760 --> 00:35:32,839 Speaker 2: uh Man. Sometimes I get myself in trouble with this 571 00:35:33,280 --> 00:35:35,640 Speaker 2: one of them, and then I'll do the finals preview thing. 572 00:35:36,200 --> 00:35:41,120 Speaker 2: I was very confident that the Knicks were totally cooked 573 00:35:41,200 --> 00:35:44,719 Speaker 2: last year. Let me see what game it was. Hold on. 574 00:35:44,920 --> 00:35:48,120 Speaker 2: I want to get this right. So we have on 575 00:35:48,200 --> 00:35:49,360 Speaker 2: the TV show. 576 00:35:51,400 --> 00:35:51,440 Speaker 3: A. 577 00:35:51,800 --> 00:35:56,960 Speaker 2: When I say die hard, I mean the most die 578 00:35:57,000 --> 00:36:01,680 Speaker 2: hard sports fan I've ever met. I've ever met under 579 00:36:01,719 --> 00:36:04,759 Speaker 2: any circumstances, for any team. 580 00:36:05,200 --> 00:36:06,200 Speaker 3: Uh it's huge. 581 00:36:07,160 --> 00:36:10,520 Speaker 2: This this when I so this gid we talked about 582 00:36:10,560 --> 00:36:12,360 Speaker 2: him on the show some not this kid's name Ramsey. 583 00:36:12,640 --> 00:36:14,960 Speaker 2: He's a great producer. I shouldn't say kid, but I 584 00:36:15,239 --> 00:36:20,160 Speaker 2: think he's your your age so kid to me and 585 00:36:21,640 --> 00:36:26,480 Speaker 2: he when I say loves the Knicks, I mean I 586 00:36:26,520 --> 00:36:31,839 Speaker 2: think and he's such a nice guy, gets angry when 587 00:36:31,960 --> 00:36:34,800 Speaker 2: like I snub one of the Knicks from the the 588 00:36:34,920 --> 00:36:37,759 Speaker 2: NBA Medals. He used to sit next to me in 589 00:36:37,840 --> 00:36:40,560 Speaker 2: the office. He still sometimes does, and I glance over 590 00:36:40,680 --> 00:36:44,239 Speaker 2: and he's just watching like Obie topping highlights from when 591 00:36:44,440 --> 00:36:48,040 Speaker 2: he was on the team. I mean a true die hard, 592 00:36:48,560 --> 00:36:54,319 Speaker 2: like a legitimate true die hard. And I thought the 593 00:36:54,440 --> 00:37:01,480 Speaker 2: Knicks were cooked and I don't even know what it. No, 594 00:37:01,560 --> 00:37:04,320 Speaker 2: it definitely was the playoffs, so I'm I'm trying to remember. 595 00:37:04,640 --> 00:37:09,480 Speaker 2: It doesn't really matter regardless. I said kind of flippantly 596 00:37:11,040 --> 00:37:15,920 Speaker 2: that if the Knicks were in a position to where 597 00:37:16,160 --> 00:37:19,759 Speaker 2: they had a big playoff home game, not like you 598 00:37:19,800 --> 00:37:21,840 Speaker 2: know they're gonna get swept or something, a big playoff 599 00:37:21,840 --> 00:37:25,240 Speaker 2: home game, I was like, Ramsey, I'll buy you a ticket, 600 00:37:26,400 --> 00:37:30,680 Speaker 2: and I was being dead serious, but I also did 601 00:37:30,719 --> 00:37:33,160 Speaker 2: not think it was going to happen. And then the 602 00:37:33,200 --> 00:37:35,879 Speaker 2: Knicks split the first two in Cleveland, and then they 603 00:37:35,880 --> 00:37:39,040 Speaker 2: had a game three at the Garden. I think that's 604 00:37:39,080 --> 00:37:41,040 Speaker 2: what it was. Whatever it is, I know the Knicks one. 605 00:37:41,280 --> 00:37:44,240 Speaker 2: I know I bought the ticket, and I know Ramsey 606 00:37:44,280 --> 00:37:46,239 Speaker 2: said it was the greatest sporting of it he'd ever 607 00:37:46,280 --> 00:37:48,640 Speaker 2: been to in his life. But that was an example, 608 00:37:48,760 --> 00:37:50,360 Speaker 2: so I felt good about it. It was it was 609 00:37:50,400 --> 00:37:55,920 Speaker 2: a cool thing, but also I yeah, exactly right. But 610 00:37:55,960 --> 00:37:57,920 Speaker 2: it was also similar to this, which is when I 611 00:37:58,040 --> 00:38:00,799 Speaker 2: said it. I didn't actually think that they gonna get there, 612 00:38:01,040 --> 00:38:03,520 Speaker 2: and then they got there, so hey, maybe maybe the 613 00:38:03,560 --> 00:38:05,480 Speaker 2: Celtics will win the East and one of the LA 614 00:38:05,560 --> 00:38:06,920 Speaker 2: teams will be in the finals. We'll get to go 615 00:38:06,960 --> 00:38:12,360 Speaker 2: to it. But now to the topic. I here's my 616 00:38:12,440 --> 00:38:19,160 Speaker 2: concern about Boston. They suck at the end of close games, 617 00:38:19,840 --> 00:38:23,880 Speaker 2: and they have for a couple of years. And this 618 00:38:24,080 --> 00:38:29,279 Speaker 2: is also some of my trepidation about Tatum. Tom Haberstrow, 619 00:38:29,880 --> 00:38:32,080 Speaker 2: who has a sub stack. You gotta pay for it, 620 00:38:32,120 --> 00:38:34,440 Speaker 2: but it's like sixty bucks for the year. If you're 621 00:38:34,480 --> 00:38:37,399 Speaker 2: a big NBA fan, you know it's five bucks a month. 622 00:38:37,520 --> 00:38:39,960 Speaker 2: I think it's worth it. He did an article on 623 00:38:40,040 --> 00:38:46,080 Speaker 2: Tatum yesterday that is galling. As far as okay, MVP 624 00:38:46,360 --> 00:38:49,680 Speaker 2: candidates and their effective field goal percentage in the clutch 625 00:38:49,760 --> 00:38:54,000 Speaker 2: this year, Shay sixty two percent. Again, effective field goal 626 00:38:54,000 --> 00:38:56,160 Speaker 2: percentage showed incorporates three is are worth more than two? 627 00:38:56,239 --> 00:39:02,640 Speaker 2: But just it's fine. Jokic sixty one, Jannis fifty nine percent, 628 00:39:03,200 --> 00:39:09,400 Speaker 2: Luca fifty four percent, Tatum thirty eight percent. Okay, is 629 00:39:09,440 --> 00:39:14,040 Speaker 2: that outlier. Tatum's effective field goal percentage in the clutch 630 00:39:15,120 --> 00:39:19,760 Speaker 2: two years ago thirty eight and a half percent. Last 631 00:39:19,840 --> 00:39:24,840 Speaker 2: year thirty eight point three percent, this year thirty eight percent. 632 00:39:25,800 --> 00:39:32,359 Speaker 2: Tatum three point shooting in the clutch nineteen percent. So 633 00:39:33,239 --> 00:39:33,680 Speaker 2: and this is. 634 00:39:33,680 --> 00:39:37,280 Speaker 3: All happen in those moments, I notice. 635 00:39:37,320 --> 00:39:42,240 Speaker 2: Correct, So that is that's exactly right. His shot selection 636 00:39:42,600 --> 00:39:47,799 Speaker 2: is very poor, and this is where and so just 637 00:39:47,800 --> 00:39:52,120 Speaker 2: just for the for the context here of everyone in 638 00:39:52,160 --> 00:39:55,759 Speaker 2: the league that's over the last three years taking at 639 00:39:55,880 --> 00:40:02,520 Speaker 2: least two hundred clutch shots, all right, there's only one, two, three, 640 00:40:04,040 --> 00:40:07,719 Speaker 2: eleven or twelve guys, and here's who they are. Number one, 641 00:40:07,840 --> 00:40:12,520 Speaker 2: shout out Daniel Jokic. This effective field goal percentage at 642 00:40:12,520 --> 00:40:18,760 Speaker 2: fifty five percent. Number two steph fifty three percent. Number 643 00:40:18,800 --> 00:40:23,920 Speaker 2: three DeRozan, shout out Damar fifty two percent. Number four 644 00:40:24,480 --> 00:40:27,480 Speaker 2: Fox fifty one percent. He just won Clutch Player of 645 00:40:27,520 --> 00:40:31,560 Speaker 2: the Year. Number five Embeid fifty one percent. Tied with 646 00:40:31,680 --> 00:40:38,320 Speaker 2: Lebron at fifty one percent. Number seven Shay forty eight percent, 647 00:40:39,160 --> 00:40:44,560 Speaker 2: Number eight Durant forty seven percent, nine Trey Young forty 648 00:40:44,600 --> 00:40:49,800 Speaker 2: six percent, ten Dejante Murray forty five percent, eleven Donovan 649 00:40:49,840 --> 00:40:55,759 Speaker 2: Mitchell forty four percent, twelve Tatum thirty eight percent. So 650 00:40:56,360 --> 00:40:58,920 Speaker 2: of there's twelve guys that have taken a lot of 651 00:40:58,960 --> 00:41:02,399 Speaker 2: these shots. He last by a lot. And you say 652 00:41:02,480 --> 00:41:06,840 Speaker 2: shot selection, demanse, that is the problem. This is where 653 00:41:09,080 --> 00:41:15,600 Speaker 2: the idolization of Kobe can bite you a bit. Yeah, 654 00:41:16,000 --> 00:41:22,440 Speaker 2: so two things on Kobe. One is, and this is 655 00:41:22,480 --> 00:41:26,200 Speaker 2: gonna end up being at least a partial compliment. Kobe 656 00:41:26,239 --> 00:41:31,000 Speaker 2: took terrible shots. What made him special was he could 657 00:41:31,000 --> 00:41:34,560 Speaker 2: make them. But even Kobe, who was as good of 658 00:41:34,600 --> 00:41:37,280 Speaker 2: a bad shot maker as the league has ever seen, 659 00:41:38,200 --> 00:41:44,120 Speaker 2: was not that efficient because nobody is super efficient on 660 00:41:44,719 --> 00:41:47,399 Speaker 2: the on hard tough shots, you know what I mean, 661 00:41:47,480 --> 00:41:54,120 Speaker 2: on a tough shot. So if we just take Kobe's peak, right, 662 00:41:54,840 --> 00:42:01,360 Speaker 2: if we take from Kobe's basically O two season through 663 00:42:02,320 --> 00:42:07,799 Speaker 2: his last championship, even just that peak, Kobe was a 664 00:42:07,840 --> 00:42:12,440 Speaker 2: forty five percent shooter because and thirty four percent from three. 665 00:42:13,000 --> 00:42:16,240 Speaker 2: For his career, he was around the same, actually forty 666 00:42:16,400 --> 00:42:18,560 Speaker 2: just under forty five percent of the field and just 667 00:42:18,680 --> 00:42:22,800 Speaker 2: under thirty three percent from three. But he was taking 668 00:42:22,840 --> 00:42:28,880 Speaker 2: impossible shots. Tatum is a really really good player, and 669 00:42:28,920 --> 00:42:30,239 Speaker 2: he's taking similarly in. 670 00:42:30,320 --> 00:42:34,359 Speaker 3: Boston shots, right. 671 00:42:34,520 --> 00:42:38,040 Speaker 2: So that's the other thing. And the thing when you 672 00:42:38,080 --> 00:42:41,440 Speaker 2: take contested jumpers, you never get to the line you 673 00:42:41,480 --> 00:42:43,359 Speaker 2: know at the end of games you're not. And so 674 00:42:43,920 --> 00:42:47,359 Speaker 2: that's my concern for Boston is I don't know they're 675 00:42:47,360 --> 00:42:51,399 Speaker 2: gonna blow everybody out. And if these games are close late, 676 00:42:52,600 --> 00:42:57,359 Speaker 2: do you trust Jimmy Butler in the heat more? I do? 677 00:42:57,360 --> 00:42:59,839 Speaker 2: Do you trust Milwaukee more? 678 00:43:00,320 --> 00:43:03,920 Speaker 3: Maybe now the defense in any situation though they have 679 00:43:04,040 --> 00:43:06,799 Speaker 3: that going like at the end of the day, I mean, 680 00:43:06,880 --> 00:43:11,359 Speaker 3: Miami's Miami's defense isn't Boston's defense. But but I get 681 00:43:11,400 --> 00:43:13,279 Speaker 3: what you're saying, like when it comes to late that 682 00:43:13,360 --> 00:43:14,840 Speaker 3: makes mistakes taking the right shot. 683 00:43:15,080 --> 00:43:19,399 Speaker 2: But also Boston is truly they're not trying to make 684 00:43:19,440 --> 00:43:23,440 Speaker 2: the finals. They're trying to win the title. And Denver, 685 00:43:24,960 --> 00:43:28,720 Speaker 2: their late game execution is the best of the Jokic 686 00:43:28,800 --> 00:43:31,840 Speaker 2: gets them a good shot every time. It doesn't mean 687 00:43:31,920 --> 00:43:34,400 Speaker 2: Jokic is taking it, and when they have it, and 688 00:43:34,480 --> 00:43:38,120 Speaker 2: the few times Denver has a bad possession, Jokic just 689 00:43:38,280 --> 00:43:41,200 Speaker 2: throws up that horse over the head tree and he 690 00:43:41,280 --> 00:43:43,719 Speaker 2: banks it in more than any guy I've ever seen 691 00:43:43,760 --> 00:43:46,879 Speaker 2: in my life. I understand that that is a little 692 00:43:46,920 --> 00:43:51,319 Speaker 2: confirmation biased, but sweet Jesus man, that guy makes more 693 00:43:51,440 --> 00:43:59,239 Speaker 2: buzzing shot ending just the demoralizing, nonsense shots. And so 694 00:44:00,120 --> 00:44:03,760 Speaker 2: I tonight will be interesting to watch, But I don't 695 00:44:05,280 --> 00:44:08,799 Speaker 2: I trust gun to my head, Miami and Milwaukee out 696 00:44:08,880 --> 00:44:12,040 Speaker 2: of the East more than Boston, despite Boston his home court, 697 00:44:12,080 --> 00:44:14,919 Speaker 2: despite Boston, all these things. So we'll see. But yeah, 698 00:44:15,040 --> 00:44:20,960 Speaker 2: tonight should be fun. I oddly, I think Boston is 699 00:44:21,000 --> 00:44:25,760 Speaker 2: gonna sound unfair. I think Boston it would be better 700 00:44:25,800 --> 00:44:27,680 Speaker 2: for them to win a close game than to blow 701 00:44:27,719 --> 00:44:30,680 Speaker 2: Denver out. I think if you if it's a nip 702 00:44:30,680 --> 00:44:33,200 Speaker 2: and tuck game and Boston comes out of it, that's 703 00:44:33,200 --> 00:44:39,920 Speaker 2: actually better than them blowing Denver out. Exactly right, All right, 704 00:44:40,000 --> 00:44:41,160 Speaker 2: let's play right ends. 705 00:44:41,480 --> 00:44:43,560 Speaker 3: All right, playing right ins today. So we're gonna talk 706 00:44:43,600 --> 00:44:46,279 Speaker 3: a little bit of NFL before a free agency. So 707 00:44:46,320 --> 00:44:50,359 Speaker 3: you know, on Tuesday we discussed, uh, Justin phil Oh 708 00:44:50,400 --> 00:44:53,680 Speaker 3: that's a new one. So on Tuesday we discussed Justin 709 00:44:53,719 --> 00:44:56,359 Speaker 3: Fields and Russell Wilson. But there are plenty other huge 710 00:44:56,360 --> 00:44:59,520 Speaker 3: dominoes so in today. So in today's right, and you're 711 00:44:59,520 --> 00:45:03,520 Speaker 3: gonna predict the future about these free agents. So first off, yep, 712 00:45:03,600 --> 00:45:07,360 Speaker 3: we got Baker. Tampa remains the favorite for Baker, but 713 00:45:07,400 --> 00:45:10,000 Speaker 3: Baker has been rumored to be in the solution for 714 00:45:10,040 --> 00:45:13,839 Speaker 3: a few teams, including New England. Baker will sign with. 715 00:45:15,239 --> 00:45:18,879 Speaker 2: Listen, I think he's gonna sign with Tampa. I think 716 00:45:18,880 --> 00:45:24,359 Speaker 2: he's probably gonna get three years, one hundred million thereabouts, 717 00:45:24,360 --> 00:45:31,040 Speaker 2: with like sixty five million guaranteed. But the New England 718 00:45:31,080 --> 00:45:35,719 Speaker 2: thing is interesting. If I were New England and I 719 00:45:35,800 --> 00:45:46,879 Speaker 2: were trying to unless I absolutely loved at least two 720 00:45:46,920 --> 00:45:50,560 Speaker 2: of the quarterbacks other than Caleb, because thing is, you 721 00:45:50,560 --> 00:45:53,600 Speaker 2: don't know who's gonna be there at three. You can say, oh, 722 00:45:53,640 --> 00:45:57,799 Speaker 2: I love Jaden Daniels or I love Drake May. You 723 00:45:57,840 --> 00:45:59,880 Speaker 2: don't one of them. You don't know which one's going 724 00:45:59,920 --> 00:46:02,960 Speaker 2: to be there. Now. If you love JJ McCarthy, you 725 00:46:03,000 --> 00:46:06,520 Speaker 2: watch different tape than I did, or listen, I'm different. 726 00:46:06,520 --> 00:46:08,320 Speaker 2: I shouldn't say tape. I'm not watching the all twenty 727 00:46:08,320 --> 00:46:11,719 Speaker 2: two college football, but you watch different Michigan games than 728 00:46:11,760 --> 00:46:14,399 Speaker 2: I did. That's fine. He'll be there. If you love 729 00:46:14,440 --> 00:46:18,520 Speaker 2: one of them, that's fine. But there is an argument 730 00:46:18,600 --> 00:46:22,640 Speaker 2: to be made with the Giants seemingly wanting a quarterback. 731 00:46:22,680 --> 00:46:25,759 Speaker 2: Minnesota is gonna want a quarterback. There's there's gonna be 732 00:46:25,800 --> 00:46:28,680 Speaker 2: these trade up trade teams that want to trade up 733 00:46:29,560 --> 00:46:32,960 Speaker 2: that if you're New England at three and you can 734 00:46:33,000 --> 00:46:36,440 Speaker 2: trade with the Giants at six and get an extra 735 00:46:36,600 --> 00:46:40,160 Speaker 2: first round pick, and then at six you draft either 736 00:46:40,239 --> 00:46:43,600 Speaker 2: Molik Neighbors, Roma Dunsay, if you want the wide receiver, 737 00:46:43,840 --> 00:46:46,839 Speaker 2: maybe Marvin Harrison. Juniors there are almost assuredly not he's 738 00:46:46,880 --> 00:46:51,120 Speaker 2: probably going Ford Arizona, Joe Ault, the franchise left tackle. 739 00:46:51,719 --> 00:46:53,680 Speaker 2: Or maybe if you're New England and you're like, you 740 00:46:53,719 --> 00:46:56,399 Speaker 2: know what, we need a lot of stuff, so we're 741 00:46:56,400 --> 00:46:59,680 Speaker 2: gonna go from three to six and get an extra first, 742 00:47:00,080 --> 00:47:02,920 Speaker 2: and then we're gonna go from six to eleven and 743 00:47:02,960 --> 00:47:06,680 Speaker 2: get another extra first, and now we're really cooking to 744 00:47:06,840 --> 00:47:11,000 Speaker 2: take best player available there and then sign Baker as 745 00:47:11,040 --> 00:47:14,799 Speaker 2: a stopgap. That might be the best team building move 746 00:47:15,239 --> 00:47:19,120 Speaker 2: unless you adore multiple of these quarterbacks in the draft. 747 00:47:19,360 --> 00:47:22,759 Speaker 2: But I think Baker's gonna I think Kirk Cousins is probably, oh, 748 00:47:22,760 --> 00:47:23,279 Speaker 2: we're doing that. 749 00:47:23,320 --> 00:47:23,600 Speaker 3: Next. 750 00:47:23,719 --> 00:47:27,319 Speaker 2: I think Baker's gonna sign with Tampa for probably three years, 751 00:47:27,360 --> 00:47:28,399 Speaker 2: one hundred million bucks. 752 00:47:28,440 --> 00:47:31,520 Speaker 3: All right, next, all right, you thought Atlanta was crazy 753 00:47:31,560 --> 00:47:35,520 Speaker 3: for considering Kirk Cousins over Justin Fields, but someone is 754 00:47:35,560 --> 00:47:38,000 Speaker 3: gonna give this guy another huge contract, So it might 755 00:47:38,040 --> 00:47:40,200 Speaker 3: even go back to You might even sign with Washington. 756 00:47:40,480 --> 00:47:41,960 Speaker 3: Where do you think the Cousins will go? 757 00:47:43,400 --> 00:47:46,279 Speaker 2: Well, I guess Washington theoretically could do the same thing 758 00:47:46,320 --> 00:47:49,400 Speaker 2: I'm talking about the Patriots doing, which is trade the 759 00:47:49,480 --> 00:47:52,640 Speaker 2: number two pick for an absolute bounty, signed Kirk and 760 00:47:52,719 --> 00:47:55,520 Speaker 2: go from there. I don't think that's gonna happen. The 761 00:47:55,560 --> 00:47:59,960 Speaker 2: Atlanta thing's interesting because evidently Cousins' wife is from that area. 762 00:48:00,200 --> 00:48:02,640 Speaker 2: Her in laws are there, and that's one of the 763 00:48:02,680 --> 00:48:04,719 Speaker 2: reasons he might want to be there. He's such a 764 00:48:04,719 --> 00:48:08,160 Speaker 2: family guy. So I didn't know that until yesterday. That's 765 00:48:08,200 --> 00:48:11,680 Speaker 2: an interesting wrinkle. It seems from the people that know 766 00:48:11,840 --> 00:48:16,239 Speaker 2: these things, it seems like everybody thinks Kirk's gonna go 767 00:48:16,280 --> 00:48:20,960 Speaker 2: to Atlanta, and that Atlanta's gonna draft a quarterback. And 768 00:48:21,120 --> 00:48:23,640 Speaker 2: I'm sorry that Minnesota's gonna draft a quarterback. Pardon me, 769 00:48:23,760 --> 00:48:26,680 Speaker 2: I said that wrong, That that Kirk's gonna go to Atlanta, 770 00:48:26,719 --> 00:48:29,480 Speaker 2: Minnesot's gonna draft a quarterback. That's not what I would 771 00:48:29,520 --> 00:48:31,920 Speaker 2: do if I were Atlanta. I don't think you're close 772 00:48:32,040 --> 00:48:35,040 Speaker 2: enough to try to, you know, sign a thirty six 773 00:48:35,120 --> 00:48:37,520 Speaker 2: year old post Achilles. But I think that's what's gonna happen. 774 00:48:38,040 --> 00:48:39,080 Speaker 2: All right, go ahead. 775 00:48:40,040 --> 00:48:42,640 Speaker 3: Yeah, So there are reports that the Cowboys were considering 776 00:48:42,719 --> 00:48:45,800 Speaker 3: Saquon Barkley, but their cap as it stands is already 777 00:48:45,800 --> 00:48:49,880 Speaker 3: pretty high or over there over the cappon will sign with. 778 00:48:52,000 --> 00:48:55,840 Speaker 2: Well, I don't know where he's gonna sign. I know 779 00:48:56,000 --> 00:49:00,960 Speaker 2: the teams that so the Cowboys signing sake, in my opinion, 780 00:49:00,960 --> 00:49:03,960 Speaker 2: would be silly. That is not their position of need, 781 00:49:04,320 --> 00:49:07,759 Speaker 2: and the Cowboys this offseason should not. The Cowboys were 782 00:49:07,800 --> 00:49:10,279 Speaker 2: the highest scoring team in the NFL last year, they 783 00:49:10,280 --> 00:49:13,160 Speaker 2: were third highest year before, they were the highest theear 784 00:49:13,200 --> 00:49:16,560 Speaker 2: before that. They don't need a shiny toy in the 785 00:49:16,719 --> 00:49:18,520 Speaker 2: you know what's going to be the most expensive running 786 00:49:18,560 --> 00:49:20,719 Speaker 2: back in the league, all Right'm sorry in this free 787 00:49:20,760 --> 00:49:24,120 Speaker 2: agency period, not the most expensive running back in the league. Also, 788 00:49:24,960 --> 00:49:32,160 Speaker 2: it does warrant mentioning that this is from somebody posted 789 00:49:32,239 --> 00:49:36,680 Speaker 2: Ah Taylor Doll posted this on Twitter. The last ten 790 00:49:36,840 --> 00:49:42,600 Speaker 2: Super Bowl winners, their running backs have made the following 791 00:49:43,840 --> 00:49:48,359 Speaker 2: eight hundred and seventy thousand, seven hundred thousand, one point 792 00:49:48,440 --> 00:49:53,200 Speaker 2: eight million, one point one million, one million, four hundred 793 00:49:53,239 --> 00:49:57,720 Speaker 2: and eighty thousand, seven hundred and sixty thousand, nine hundred thousand, 794 00:49:58,080 --> 00:50:00,719 Speaker 2: seven hundred and seventy thousand, four hundred and. 795 00:50:00,760 --> 00:50:04,080 Speaker 3: Twenty Thousand's big thing last year was getting paid. 796 00:50:05,239 --> 00:50:07,840 Speaker 2: Right, and he's gonna get I don't know what the 797 00:50:07,880 --> 00:50:10,080 Speaker 2: market's gonna be. I know that Saquan's gonna get the 798 00:50:10,080 --> 00:50:12,799 Speaker 2: most money of any of this running back market, so 799 00:50:13,640 --> 00:50:15,960 Speaker 2: that but that doesn't mean he's not a useful player, 800 00:50:16,120 --> 00:50:19,680 Speaker 2: win healthy. The team that if I were them, I 801 00:50:19,680 --> 00:50:22,240 Speaker 2: would say, you know what, I don't mind paying extra 802 00:50:22,920 --> 00:50:26,640 Speaker 2: a little running back tax. I've got the money. I'm 803 00:50:26,640 --> 00:50:30,640 Speaker 2: trying to really juice the window right now is the 804 00:50:30,680 --> 00:50:34,799 Speaker 2: Houston Texans with your guys with CJ. They need a 805 00:50:34,840 --> 00:50:38,319 Speaker 2: running back. They have the money, They've spent draft picks 806 00:50:38,320 --> 00:50:41,520 Speaker 2: on the wide receivers. Like the Texans to me make sense. 807 00:50:41,960 --> 00:50:44,920 Speaker 2: Another team that I would say, you know what, I 808 00:50:44,920 --> 00:50:47,960 Speaker 2: don't mind spending the money. I've got it, and I'm 809 00:50:47,960 --> 00:50:50,080 Speaker 2: gonna have a young quarterback that I want to support. 810 00:50:50,360 --> 00:50:55,640 Speaker 2: The Chicago Bears. Chicago Bears draft Caleb signed Saquan draft 811 00:50:55,640 --> 00:50:58,040 Speaker 2: a wide receiver at nine, and now you really or 812 00:50:58,080 --> 00:51:00,840 Speaker 2: maybe Brock Bauers if he's there, now you're really cooking. 813 00:51:02,320 --> 00:51:06,440 Speaker 2: People have attached him to Dallas and Philly. Dallas and 814 00:51:06,520 --> 00:51:12,719 Speaker 2: Philly need to address obvious defensive weaknesses with their cap dollars, 815 00:51:13,200 --> 00:51:17,160 Speaker 2: not go sign an expensive running back. So that's so, 816 00:51:17,400 --> 00:51:20,560 Speaker 2: I would say, team with a quarterback on a rookie 817 00:51:20,640 --> 00:51:27,120 Speaker 2: contract or the other kind of interesting one. They don't 818 00:51:27,120 --> 00:51:29,000 Speaker 2: have the money for it, but I could see him 819 00:51:29,040 --> 00:51:32,840 Speaker 2: doing it. Is he is, almost said Michigan because of Harrball. 820 00:51:32,880 --> 00:51:35,279 Speaker 2: But the Chargers, but they don't have the money. They 821 00:51:35,280 --> 00:51:37,200 Speaker 2: could use him, they don't have the money. All right. 822 00:51:37,320 --> 00:51:40,959 Speaker 3: Next, so we talked about Saquan So let's talk about 823 00:51:41,000 --> 00:51:44,320 Speaker 3: some other free agent running backs. Who've got Drrick Henry, 824 00:51:44,480 --> 00:51:49,000 Speaker 3: Tony Pollard, Austin Eckler, Josh Jacobs, and if the reports 825 00:51:49,000 --> 00:51:52,520 Speaker 3: are true, possibly Joe Mixon. Which free agent running back 826 00:51:52,520 --> 00:51:53,120 Speaker 3: would you sign? 827 00:51:54,440 --> 00:51:55,400 Speaker 2: None of them? 828 00:51:55,800 --> 00:51:59,040 Speaker 3: None of them? No, you know, the Chiefs don't need 829 00:51:59,080 --> 00:51:59,680 Speaker 3: a running back. 830 00:52:00,480 --> 00:52:03,120 Speaker 2: No, I know. But I just wouldn't spend real money 831 00:52:03,880 --> 00:52:09,440 Speaker 2: on veteran running backs unless they're Christian McCaffrey. I just wouldn't. Uh, 832 00:52:09,480 --> 00:52:13,560 Speaker 2: it's just not you can find them in the draft. 833 00:52:14,560 --> 00:52:18,560 Speaker 2: Nick Chubb is amazing the brown he went down. The 834 00:52:18,600 --> 00:52:21,759 Speaker 2: Browns running game was still great. The Ravens lost like 835 00:52:21,840 --> 00:52:25,319 Speaker 2: three running backs. They were they let this running game 836 00:52:25,360 --> 00:52:28,839 Speaker 2: is still great. The Pacheco was a seventh round pick. Like, 837 00:52:29,120 --> 00:52:31,680 Speaker 2: it's not just the Chiefs. So that's just not where 838 00:52:31,719 --> 00:52:33,440 Speaker 2: I would spend my free agent dollars. 839 00:52:33,480 --> 00:52:37,040 Speaker 3: All right, Next, all right, the Oscars are this Sunday. 840 00:52:37,480 --> 00:52:39,399 Speaker 3: I'm not sure if you've had any time to watch 841 00:52:39,400 --> 00:52:41,600 Speaker 3: any of the Best Picture nominees with all the time 842 00:52:41,600 --> 00:52:46,200 Speaker 3: you've been spend spending studying dead capitules. But if you have, again, I. 843 00:52:46,160 --> 00:52:48,000 Speaker 2: Don't have to spend a lot of time studying. It's very 844 00:52:48,680 --> 00:52:50,560 Speaker 2: it's just people choose to be ignorant about it. 845 00:52:50,560 --> 00:52:53,560 Speaker 3: But go ahead, if you have the best movie of 846 00:52:53,600 --> 00:52:56,799 Speaker 3: this year in your opinion, was all right? 847 00:52:56,920 --> 00:53:00,520 Speaker 2: So, first of all, the Oscars going to ten picture 848 00:53:00,560 --> 00:53:06,640 Speaker 2: nominations was a terrible decision. Terrible Have it be five 849 00:53:06,960 --> 00:53:11,759 Speaker 2: when it was five? Effort to make sure I'd seen 850 00:53:11,800 --> 00:53:15,960 Speaker 2: all five. No, it's like, okay, there's five. That's digestible. 851 00:53:16,360 --> 00:53:22,080 Speaker 2: It's ten movies. Who can see ten movies? Unemployed people 852 00:53:22,120 --> 00:53:26,760 Speaker 2: like what? People without kids? I guess people without kids 853 00:53:26,800 --> 00:53:29,040 Speaker 2: can do it. I saw seth Rogen. This might have 854 00:53:29,080 --> 00:53:32,520 Speaker 2: been hold on killing him about fake news? 855 00:53:32,840 --> 00:53:36,720 Speaker 3: No, I don't think. Yeah, it was about him staying 856 00:53:36,760 --> 00:53:39,920 Speaker 3: in smoking weed on Saturdays with his girl or his wife. 857 00:53:40,400 --> 00:53:42,120 Speaker 3: If they had kids, they wouldn't able to do this, 858 00:53:42,880 --> 00:53:44,520 Speaker 3: that whole thing. Yeah, yeah, I think that was a. 859 00:53:44,560 --> 00:53:48,160 Speaker 2: Real Idertand oh yeah, and you also don't like people 860 00:53:48,239 --> 00:53:50,839 Speaker 2: killing him for it because he's describing your dream. I 861 00:53:50,880 --> 00:53:56,720 Speaker 2: get it. I understand, not like living in the Hollywood Hills, 862 00:53:56,840 --> 00:54:00,640 Speaker 2: being rich, having no responsibility, just hanging out, understand it. 863 00:54:00,680 --> 00:54:03,839 Speaker 2: I'm not. I'm not killing them for it either. Uh 864 00:54:03,920 --> 00:54:06,000 Speaker 2: so I that so I do under it's not just 865 00:54:06,040 --> 00:54:09,560 Speaker 2: unemployed people, but people without without either without you, if 866 00:54:09,560 --> 00:54:11,360 Speaker 2: you gotta, if you're gonna be able to cram in 867 00:54:11,520 --> 00:54:14,880 Speaker 2: ten movies, you can't have kids and a job. You 868 00:54:15,040 --> 00:54:19,880 Speaker 2: just can't. It's not possible. So and I love movies. 869 00:54:20,680 --> 00:54:23,200 Speaker 2: I like I You know, that sounds like a weird 870 00:54:23,239 --> 00:54:27,200 Speaker 2: thing to say, but I love great movies, love them 871 00:54:27,239 --> 00:54:29,960 Speaker 2: like I was making an effort when Killers of the 872 00:54:30,000 --> 00:54:33,480 Speaker 2: Flower Moon came out to go back and watch every 873 00:54:33,560 --> 00:54:40,479 Speaker 2: Scorsese movie. I started that project, if you will, four 874 00:54:40,520 --> 00:54:43,880 Speaker 2: months ago, whenever Killers flower Moon came out. I've gotten 875 00:54:43,920 --> 00:54:48,440 Speaker 2: through two. I watched Taxi Driver and I watched Killers 876 00:54:48,480 --> 00:54:50,040 Speaker 2: of Flower Moon. That's it. 877 00:54:50,080 --> 00:54:51,880 Speaker 3: Hey, what do you tell Wait, I'm confused because I 878 00:54:51,880 --> 00:54:54,719 Speaker 3: know about taxi drivers. I'm confused about what you're talking about. 879 00:54:55,120 --> 00:55:00,480 Speaker 2: Like, uh, the director, Oh, just his movies. No, oh, no, 880 00:55:00,960 --> 00:55:09,160 Speaker 2: his movies. Yeah. So Scorsese has done some weird, uncomfortable 881 00:55:11,040 --> 00:55:13,239 Speaker 2: and so he did. But demand say, he's done some 882 00:55:13,239 --> 00:55:15,319 Speaker 2: of the greatest movies ever. And I've seen some of them. 883 00:55:15,719 --> 00:55:19,480 Speaker 2: I mean, he did Good Fellas, he did The Departed, 884 00:55:20,040 --> 00:55:26,279 Speaker 2: he did Raging Bull. Uh, he he did. I mean 885 00:55:26,280 --> 00:55:28,360 Speaker 2: he's done a million. He did Wolf of Wall Street, 886 00:55:28,440 --> 00:55:31,879 Speaker 2: which I've seen, he did Kill his Flower Moon. He's done, 887 00:55:31,920 --> 00:55:36,400 Speaker 2: and I'm I'm leaving. I'm leaving out a million of great, 888 00:55:36,560 --> 00:55:38,439 Speaker 2: you know, great movies. I've seen some, but I wanted 889 00:55:38,440 --> 00:55:43,440 Speaker 2: to see all of them. So the only Oscar movies 890 00:55:43,480 --> 00:55:50,640 Speaker 2: I've seen is Oppenheimer, Barbie and Killers of the Flower Moon. 891 00:55:52,920 --> 00:55:57,720 Speaker 2: I didn't see Killers Flower Moon until the flight back 892 00:55:57,760 --> 00:56:01,759 Speaker 2: from Japan, so I just saw it three days ago. 893 00:56:02,400 --> 00:56:02,640 Speaker 3: Uh. 894 00:56:03,640 --> 00:56:08,440 Speaker 2: That movie is phenomenal and it's a true story and 895 00:56:08,520 --> 00:56:11,920 Speaker 2: it makes you sick about you know. It's another one 896 00:56:11,920 --> 00:56:17,200 Speaker 2: of those pieces of American history that just sucks. But 897 00:56:17,320 --> 00:56:23,920 Speaker 2: it is a phenomenal movie. I Oppenheimer. I saw in 898 00:56:23,960 --> 00:56:29,120 Speaker 2: the theaters and then watched again when it when it 899 00:56:29,200 --> 00:56:32,240 Speaker 2: was on on demand.

I tell Demanse, I gotta go to the 934 00:58:46,480 --> 00:58:50,240 Speaker 2: bathroom or something. The movie hasn't started yet. I go outside, 935 00:58:51,600 --> 00:58:55,360 Speaker 2: hit it joint a couple times, come back in watch Inception. 936 00:58:55,920 --> 00:59:02,240 Speaker 2: My mind is blown. I loved it.

He was like, that was one 939 00:59:07,880 --> 00:59:11,000 Speaker 2: of the dumbest movies I've ever seen. Can't believe you 940 00:59:11,080 --> 00:59:12,760 Speaker 2: took me to it? And I was like, I thought 941 00:59:12,800 --> 00:59:20,600 Speaker 2: it was great. Man, Well you're twelve years old, have 942 00:59:20,720 --> 00:59:22,400 Speaker 2: you watched it again as an adult. 943 00:59:22,960 --> 00:59:25,920 Speaker 3: I haven't, I really think so. I think that I 944 00:59:25,960 --> 00:59:27,960 Speaker 3: still don't like it, and that was the last time 945 00:59:28,000 --> 00:59:29,120 Speaker 3: I saw it. 946 00:59:29,400 --> 00:59:34,560 Speaker 2: But but now you might like it more well whatever 947 00:59:34,640 --> 00:59:38,000 Speaker 2: mind frame, but certainly now being able to understand it. 948 00:59:39,440 --> 00:59:44,680 Speaker 2: But I didn't tell Demanse that until recently, that that 949 00:59:44,680 --> 00:59:46,000 Speaker 2: that little piece of it. 950 00:59:46,760 --> 00:59:51,000 Speaker 3: But yeah, so Whipenheimer. 951 00:59:52,360 --> 00:59:56,320 Speaker 2: But regardless, So I'm not qualified to give an answer 952 00:59:56,320 --> 00:59:59,480 Speaker 2: to this question. Of those three, I think Killers of 953 00:59:59,520 --> 01:00:02,320 Speaker 2: the Flower Ohon was my favorite. I liked Barbie a lot. 954 01:00:02,520 --> 01:00:04,960 Speaker 2: I thought Barbie was really well done and really smart, 955 01:00:06,400 --> 01:00:11,520 Speaker 2: and I watched that with Deanna at the house. But 956 01:00:11,640 --> 01:00:15,920 Speaker 2: I don't, I don't know. I'd like to say people 957 01:00:15,960 --> 01:00:21,400 Speaker 2: love Mastro, the Bradley Cooper movie, and there's a bunch 958 01:00:21,400 --> 01:00:23,320 Speaker 2: of these movies people love. But ten's too much. I'm 959 01:00:23,360 --> 01:00:25,040 Speaker 2: not gonna be able to watch all ten, but there 960 01:00:25,080 --> 01:00:27,280 Speaker 2: were five, I'd be able to watch it, all right. 961 01:00:27,320 --> 01:00:29,600 Speaker 2: I'm kind of having a little regret about telling that 962 01:00:29,640 --> 01:00:31,439 Speaker 2: story on the air. I'm not gonna lie quick break 963 01:00:31,480 --> 01:00:32,280 Speaker 2: right back, what's right? 964 01:00:38,200 --> 01:00:38,480 Speaker 3: All right? 965 01:00:38,520 --> 01:00:41,560 Speaker 2: I anticipated at this pod being a fast one because 966 01:00:41,640 --> 01:00:43,560 Speaker 2: I thought I was gonna be exhausted instead of this 967 01:00:43,600 --> 01:00:47,600 Speaker 2: POD's been outstanding and long, even by our standards. But 968 01:00:47,680 --> 01:00:49,720 Speaker 2: let's get to some listener questions before I get to work. 969 01:00:49,760 --> 01:00:52,000 Speaker 3: Go ahead to Mosey. All right, So there's some speculation 970 01:00:52,080 --> 01:00:54,080 Speaker 3: that you made a Bernard to ask yourself this question. 971 01:00:54,560 --> 01:00:58,240 Speaker 3: Curtis Matthews said, question for Nick. When it's all said 972 01:00:58,280 --> 01:01:01,760 Speaker 3: and done, for both athletes and their respective sport, who 973 01:01:01,800 --> 01:01:04,840 Speaker 3: will be the bigger goat Patrick Mahomes in the NFL 974 01:01:04,960 --> 01:01:07,840 Speaker 3: or Lebron James in the NBA. 975 01:01:08,200 --> 01:01:14,640 Speaker 2: I think it's actually more likely to be Mahomes because 976 01:01:15,920 --> 01:01:21,800 Speaker 2: I don't think there is What has worked against Lebron 977 01:01:23,120 --> 01:01:31,280 Speaker 2: is vocal contingents that were against him shortly after he 978 01:01:31,400 --> 01:01:35,320 Speaker 2: entered the league in the Kobe Bryant diehards and the 979 01:01:35,320 --> 01:01:39,000 Speaker 2: Michael Jordan diehards. They identified him as a threat. He 980 01:01:39,120 --> 01:01:43,520 Speaker 2: also had some public ape, very public failure, and you 981 01:01:43,560 --> 01:01:45,680 Speaker 2: know what I mean, and it was they were so entrenched. 982 01:01:46,280 --> 01:01:52,320 Speaker 2: I don't think many people hate Mahomes. Hey, you starting 983 01:01:52,360 --> 01:01:55,240 Speaker 2: to see some of it bubble up, some of it, 984 01:01:55,480 --> 01:01:57,560 Speaker 2: but there's too many. 985 01:01:57,880 --> 01:02:01,000 Speaker 3: Go ahead, there's a I noticed they're already doing it, 986 01:02:01,040 --> 01:02:03,000 Speaker 3: but they show they're showing a bunch of clips of 987 01:02:03,040 --> 01:02:06,400 Speaker 3: Brady getting the crap tackled out of them. They're saying 988 01:02:06,400 --> 01:02:09,000 Speaker 3: Mahomes didn't have to play in this era that's already started. 989 01:02:09,200 --> 01:02:12,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, oh no, there'll be some of it. But the 990 01:02:12,760 --> 01:02:16,640 Speaker 2: other thing that I think is going to I think 991 01:02:16,800 --> 01:02:23,880 Speaker 2: Mahomes is going to catch Brady in the winning I do, 992 01:02:24,600 --> 01:02:29,520 Speaker 2: and the numbers are going to be the one of 993 01:02:29,560 --> 01:02:32,880 Speaker 2: the things Jordan has, you know, Jordan, I understand Lebron 994 01:02:32,920 --> 01:02:35,120 Speaker 2: caught him in all the numbers, but in the accolades, 995 01:02:35,200 --> 01:02:39,560 Speaker 2: Jordan does have five MVPs. Lebron's four. Brady and I 996 01:02:39,640 --> 01:02:44,000 Speaker 2: put this in quotes, only only won three league MVPs. 997 01:02:44,440 --> 01:02:47,160 Speaker 2: How many do you think Mahomes gonna end with five? 998 01:02:47,800 --> 01:02:50,040 Speaker 2: What Peyton has five? You know what I mean? And 999 01:02:50,080 --> 01:02:54,120 Speaker 2: so it's just so there are I think that I 1000 01:02:54,560 --> 01:03:01,480 Speaker 2: also think there are fewer people. Who's the other thing 1001 01:03:01,600 --> 01:03:07,920 Speaker 2: that works against Brady is Brady unlike these other guys 1002 01:03:08,040 --> 01:03:15,400 Speaker 2: that we talk about as goats, whether it be Lebron, Michael, Kareem, Gretzky, 1003 01:03:16,040 --> 01:03:20,200 Speaker 2: you know, Babe, Ruth Babyoo's hard as one hundred years ago. 1004 01:03:20,400 --> 01:03:27,880 Speaker 2: But all of those guys, no one debated during the 1005 01:03:27,920 --> 01:03:30,840 Speaker 2: first you know, ten years of their career, were they 1006 01:03:30,920 --> 01:03:34,840 Speaker 2: the best player currently playing. It's like, oh no, this 1007 01:03:34,920 --> 01:03:37,760 Speaker 2: is Jordan's league, this is Lebron's league, this is Kareem's league. 1008 01:03:37,800 --> 01:03:43,240 Speaker 2: Those things. Brady, the Brady Manning and then Brady Rogers 1009 01:03:43,240 --> 01:03:46,800 Speaker 2: thing was a real debate for the first fifteen years 1010 01:03:46,800 --> 01:03:50,600 Speaker 2: of Brady's career, and then the last seven years Brady 1011 01:03:50,720 --> 01:03:54,919 Speaker 2: separated from everybody. So for all those reasons, I don't 1012 01:03:54,920 --> 01:03:59,720 Speaker 2: think Brady's gonna have the stickiness of the goat stuff 1013 01:04:00,200 --> 01:04:04,120 Speaker 2: that Jordan has had, So I think it's probably Mahomes 1014 01:04:04,160 --> 01:04:04,440 Speaker 2: all right. 1015 01:04:04,520 --> 01:04:08,560 Speaker 3: Next, Ethan Williams, what do you recommend? What do you 1016 01:04:08,600 --> 01:04:12,120 Speaker 3: recommend doing slash eating in Tokyo? 1017 01:04:12,240 --> 01:04:14,560 Speaker 2: All right, Well, listen, Tokyo is a bigger city than 1018 01:04:14,600 --> 01:04:16,840 Speaker 2: New York City. So what to do is it's too 1019 01:04:16,960 --> 01:04:21,040 Speaker 2: much to list. If you're into history, travel around Japan 1020 01:04:21,200 --> 01:04:24,360 Speaker 2: and go see the different shrines in the different castles. 1021 01:04:24,840 --> 01:04:28,360 Speaker 2: The bullet train is unbelievable. Things that take a six 1022 01:04:28,400 --> 01:04:31,680 Speaker 2: hour drive are a less than three hour train ride. 1023 01:04:32,320 --> 01:04:36,480 Speaker 2: It's affordable. Their subway system and train system is immaculate, 1024 01:04:36,840 --> 01:04:41,040 Speaker 2: so that's the best way to move. As far as eating, 1025 01:04:41,280 --> 01:04:46,480 Speaker 2: Here's what I will say about the food. Obviously, the 1026 01:04:46,520 --> 01:04:50,600 Speaker 2: sushi is what people are gonna be excited about. I 1027 01:04:54,120 --> 01:05:00,240 Speaker 2: the just average sushi in Japan that I ate, just 1028 01:05:00,280 --> 01:05:02,000 Speaker 2: like you don't have to go to like the best 1029 01:05:02,040 --> 01:05:06,040 Speaker 2: place in the just the regular sushi spot there is 1030 01:05:06,120 --> 01:05:14,000 Speaker 2: going to be better than any sushi place anywhere in 1031 01:05:14,080 --> 01:05:18,840 Speaker 2: America except for the very very best sushi you can 1032 01:05:18,840 --> 01:05:24,160 Speaker 2: get in LA or New York. So like if you now, 1033 01:05:24,440 --> 01:05:27,640 Speaker 2: sushi is a weird thing because at the very top 1034 01:05:27,720 --> 01:05:29,960 Speaker 2: of the top, everyone's getting the same fish, you know 1035 01:05:30,000 --> 01:05:32,400 Speaker 2: what I mean, And there's not a lot of preparation. 1036 01:05:32,640 --> 01:05:35,920 Speaker 2: So the very I'm not gonna the very best sushi 1037 01:05:35,960 --> 01:05:39,320 Speaker 2: spots here in New York are on par in my opinion, 1038 01:05:39,320 --> 01:05:41,720 Speaker 2: with the best spots that I ate at in Tokyo. 1039 01:05:41,800 --> 01:05:47,640 Speaker 2: They are, They're on par. But the difference is almost 1040 01:05:47,720 --> 01:05:50,480 Speaker 2: any other city in the country other than LA, their 1041 01:05:50,680 --> 01:05:55,120 Speaker 2: best sushi spot would be the worst place by far 1042 01:05:55,280 --> 01:05:58,440 Speaker 2: that I ate while I was over there. But my 1043 01:05:58,560 --> 01:06:02,280 Speaker 2: favorite food stuff was the Kobe Steak. I had Kobe's 1044 01:06:02,280 --> 01:06:05,920 Speaker 2: Steak in Kobe and but the Kobe Steak also in 1045 01:06:05,920 --> 01:06:10,920 Speaker 2: Osaka or anywhere in Japan. It's expensive, uh, but it's 1046 01:06:10,960 --> 01:06:13,560 Speaker 2: the best food I've ever had in my life that 1047 01:06:13,560 --> 01:06:16,360 Speaker 2: that And now listen, I eat some of that sometimes. 1048 01:06:16,400 --> 01:06:18,919 Speaker 2: I there's some places in New York you can get that. 1049 01:06:19,200 --> 01:06:22,920 Speaker 2: It's it's exorbitant. I mean, it's an absurd amount of 1050 01:06:22,920 --> 01:06:25,440 Speaker 2: money in New York spent on food. In Tokyo it's 1051 01:06:25,480 --> 01:06:27,040 Speaker 2: a little cheaper. It's still a lot of money spent 1052 01:06:27,080 --> 01:06:28,640 Speaker 2: on food. But that's what I like to spend my 1053 01:06:28,680 --> 01:06:31,160 Speaker 2: money on, is good food. But demons, did I did 1054 01:06:31,160 --> 01:06:35,760 Speaker 2: the Kobe steak? At one of these places, they give 1055 01:06:35,800 --> 01:06:39,080 Speaker 2: you a certificate of authenticity for the cow that has 1056 01:06:39,120 --> 01:06:42,080 Speaker 2: both of the cow's parents, all four of his grandparents, 1057 01:06:42,320 --> 01:06:46,080 Speaker 2: and the cow's nose print. Buddy, the cow's nose print 1058 01:06:46,480 --> 01:06:50,120 Speaker 2: on the piece of paper, and it's signed like it's. 1059 01:06:50,080 --> 01:06:52,040 Speaker 3: Like this buddy. 1060 01:06:53,240 --> 01:06:56,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, Well, because the the what makes Kobe beef Kobe 1061 01:06:56,600 --> 01:07:00,960 Speaker 2: beef is the cows get massaged, they feed beef your chamber, 1062 01:07:01,200 --> 01:07:03,680 Speaker 2: you know what I mean. It's a whole thing, and 1063 01:07:03,720 --> 01:07:05,280 Speaker 2: then you get slaughtered. 1064 01:07:04,880 --> 01:07:07,120 Speaker 3: And you eat the certificate. 1065 01:07:08,360 --> 01:07:10,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, it was pretty great. Oh. The other thing is 1066 01:07:10,880 --> 01:07:16,640 Speaker 2: the ramen. Ramen is phenomenal, Like yeah, here you go, 1067 01:07:17,800 --> 01:07:21,360 Speaker 2: all right, the let's go to jellybean. 1068 01:07:22,560 --> 01:07:25,880 Speaker 3: Uh, mister Kai Jellybean said, Nick, how was Japan anything 1069 01:07:25,880 --> 01:07:28,880 Speaker 3: you noticed culturally that was different from the US? And 1070 01:07:28,880 --> 01:07:30,560 Speaker 3: I went in October and I loved it. 1071 01:07:32,240 --> 01:07:35,360 Speaker 2: Well, what everyone's gonna say is that there's just no litter. 1072 01:07:36,120 --> 01:07:39,680 Speaker 2: It's just no litter. It's just not a thing. And 1073 01:07:39,720 --> 01:07:43,960 Speaker 2: there's also what's crazy is there's no trash cans on 1074 01:07:44,000 --> 01:07:48,640 Speaker 2: the street. You're they're not there. And so you might 1075 01:07:48,680 --> 01:07:50,120 Speaker 2: be like, why is there no litter? And it's the 1076 01:07:50,160 --> 01:07:52,400 Speaker 2: answer is and this is what I realized. 1077 01:07:52,760 --> 01:07:53,440 Speaker 3: People don't eat. 1078 01:07:53,440 --> 01:07:58,640 Speaker 2: You're not allowed. No, no, you're not allowed. And in fact, 1079 01:07:58,760 --> 01:08:01,280 Speaker 2: in like the touristy area is where they're selling like 1080 01:08:01,360 --> 01:08:05,600 Speaker 2: street food, they have little enclaves where you have to 1081 01:08:05,640 --> 01:08:08,800 Speaker 2: eat it. Like even at like a little like Kiosk, 1082 01:08:08,840 --> 01:08:10,720 Speaker 2: It's like you can buy food from here, you have 1083 01:08:10,760 --> 01:08:13,680 Speaker 2: to eat it right here because it's just not part 1084 01:08:13,680 --> 01:08:16,960 Speaker 2: of the culture, right, it's just not part of the 1085 01:08:16,960 --> 01:08:18,599 Speaker 2: culture to eat while you're moving. 1086 01:08:19,320 --> 01:08:19,439 Speaker 1: Uh. 1087 01:08:19,760 --> 01:08:23,000 Speaker 2: A lot of the streets were no smoking and so 1088 01:08:23,160 --> 01:08:26,360 Speaker 2: like there were just you would just go. But the 1089 01:08:26,479 --> 01:08:31,839 Speaker 2: that's what everyone notices, and it is it is just different. 1090 01:08:32,120 --> 01:08:35,120 Speaker 2: But the thing that I noticed that I could not 1091 01:08:35,439 --> 01:08:41,480 Speaker 2: believe when I say to mons, there is no jaywalking. 1092 01:08:42,520 --> 01:08:47,880 Speaker 2: I mean, there is no jaywalking. It is it is 1093 01:08:48,080 --> 01:08:56,320 Speaker 2: just the it is, yes, like there you can be 1094 01:08:56,400 --> 01:09:00,599 Speaker 2: at an intersection, it can be a side street, there 1095 01:09:00,600 --> 01:09:06,120 Speaker 2: gonna be no cars anywhere. Everyone waits and the light 1096 01:09:06,200 --> 01:09:09,280 Speaker 2: changes and everyone goes. It's just so there are just 1097 01:09:09,439 --> 01:09:13,880 Speaker 2: certain things. It's very it's just unique. And so I'm 1098 01:09:13,920 --> 01:09:18,360 Speaker 2: not the So those are the two things that jumped 1099 01:09:18,360 --> 01:09:23,400 Speaker 2: out to me more than anything. Was the the the 1100 01:09:23,840 --> 01:09:28,240 Speaker 2: just how different that was. Yeah, it's just a real 1101 01:09:28,400 --> 01:09:32,120 Speaker 2: like a real yeah, it's just a real cultural difference. 1102 01:09:34,120 --> 01:09:41,120 Speaker 2: And yeah, the but the it was stunning that the 1103 01:09:41,200 --> 01:09:44,280 Speaker 2: and I know, the no jaywalking things sounds silly, but 1104 01:09:44,560 --> 01:09:47,760 Speaker 2: I mean there was at one point we'd been there 1105 01:09:47,800 --> 01:09:51,600 Speaker 2: like five days, and your mom and I had I 1106 01:09:51,600 --> 01:09:54,160 Speaker 2: had gotten a little turned around on Google Maps trying 1107 01:09:54,160 --> 01:09:57,920 Speaker 2: to walk to a subway station, and then I realized, 1108 01:09:57,920 --> 01:10:00,360 Speaker 2: I'm like, oh gosh, it's right there, Like I can 1109 01:10:00,439 --> 01:10:04,479 Speaker 2: see it, it's right there. And the but we were 1110 01:10:04,520 --> 01:10:07,680 Speaker 2: dead in the middle of like it was probably a 1111 01:10:07,720 --> 01:10:10,800 Speaker 2: three minute walk in either direction to where the crosswalk 1112 01:10:10,840 --> 01:10:12,880 Speaker 2: would be in the subway stations right across from me. 1113 01:10:13,720 --> 01:10:15,240 Speaker 2: And I said to your mom I was like, are 1114 01:10:15,240 --> 01:10:15,960 Speaker 2: we gonna do this? 1115 01:10:16,960 --> 01:10:17,680 Speaker 3: She's like, what do you mean? 1116 01:10:17,720 --> 01:10:20,360 Speaker 2: I'm like, I'm like, I have real guilt right now, 1117 01:10:20,400 --> 01:10:22,120 Speaker 2: Like I feel like I'm being I was like, and 1118 01:10:22,160 --> 01:10:24,080 Speaker 2: I did it, of course because I'm an ugly American. 1119 01:10:24,080 --> 01:10:27,040 Speaker 2: But I'm like, let's just go go go go the street. 1120 01:10:28,439 --> 01:10:33,240 Speaker 2: But I but I it took me five days. No, 1121 01:10:33,360 --> 01:10:37,120 Speaker 2: I don't know. But regardless, My point is, it only 1122 01:10:37,160 --> 01:10:39,599 Speaker 2: took five days for me to actually like think twice 1123 01:10:39,600 --> 01:10:42,200 Speaker 2: about it now, not enough to like inconvenience myself to 1124 01:10:42,240 --> 01:10:45,160 Speaker 2: where I'm gonna walk it extra three minutes. No, but 1125 01:10:45,560 --> 01:10:49,280 Speaker 2: it's still it was. So that was that was something 1126 01:10:49,360 --> 01:10:54,599 Speaker 2: to me. All right, Uh, the go ahead, let's read 1127 01:10:54,640 --> 01:10:56,680 Speaker 2: William Jackson's and then we can move on. 1128 01:10:57,600 --> 01:11:01,439 Speaker 3: William Jackson suggests nick walking of grass barefoot to get 1129 01:11:01,479 --> 01:11:02,639 Speaker 3: back to your sleep rhythm. 1130 01:11:04,120 --> 01:11:06,559 Speaker 2: I gotta look that up. If that's real. That feels 1131 01:11:06,640 --> 01:11:09,559 Speaker 2: really close to that very annoying thing people now say 1132 01:11:09,600 --> 01:11:11,360 Speaker 2: on the internet all the time, which is tell people 1133 01:11:11,360 --> 01:11:15,160 Speaker 2: to touch grass and they're like, you're a go touch grass. 1134 01:11:15,160 --> 01:11:16,920 Speaker 2: I don't know when that became a thing people said 1135 01:11:16,920 --> 01:11:19,920 Speaker 2: to people, but now everybody says it.
