0:00:42.600 --> 0:00:46.640
<v Speaker 2>Welcome in What's Right with Nick Wright Episode two nineteen.

0:00:47.360 --> 0:00:49.440
<v Speaker 2>We had a ton to do today and listen. I

0:00:50.880 --> 0:00:54.440
<v Speaker 2>have not talked much about my trip to Japan. I

0:00:55.320 --> 0:00:59.480
<v Speaker 2>don't know. There's conflicting opinions on if on these podcasts.

0:01:00.080 --> 0:01:03.800
<v Speaker 2>You know I should dive into that at some level

0:01:04.240 --> 0:01:07.039
<v Speaker 2>and demands I think needs some help with his headphones, guys.

0:01:07.120 --> 0:01:10.760
<v Speaker 2>So I'll talk about this for a second. But some

0:01:10.800 --> 0:01:13.240
<v Speaker 2>people would say, hey, people are opting to spend their

0:01:13.280 --> 0:01:15.119
<v Speaker 2>time with you. They want to know about your life.

0:01:15.120 --> 0:01:17.440
<v Speaker 2>Other people are like, now we're here to hear about sports.

0:01:17.880 --> 0:01:19.720
<v Speaker 2>So I didn't really get into the details of it,

0:01:19.800 --> 0:01:23.800
<v Speaker 2>but what I will tell you is this, I had

0:01:23.880 --> 0:01:26.400
<v Speaker 2>no jet lag the entire time I was in Japan,

0:01:26.440 --> 0:01:29.080
<v Speaker 2>and I was like, Man, this jet lag stuff everyone's

0:01:29.080 --> 0:01:32.600
<v Speaker 2>always whining about is a bunch of nonsense. Since I

0:01:32.760 --> 0:01:38.039
<v Speaker 2>got back from Japan, I have gotten up for the

0:01:38.160 --> 0:01:46.759
<v Speaker 2>day at three am, three thirty am, four am, and

0:01:46.840 --> 0:01:51.560
<v Speaker 2>today one thirty in the morning and just can't go back.

0:01:51.640 --> 0:01:54.160
<v Speaker 2>I've been up since one thirty in the morning today

0:01:54.640 --> 0:01:58.240
<v Speaker 2>and I just can't get back on like a regular schedule.

0:01:58.680 --> 0:02:04.200
<v Speaker 2>So this is literally cup of coffee number seven. It's

0:02:04.320 --> 0:02:06.560
<v Speaker 2>ten thirty in the morning, and I know it sounds like, Nick,

0:02:06.560 --> 0:02:08.440
<v Speaker 2>if you trying to go back to sleep, why are

0:02:08.440 --> 0:02:10.520
<v Speaker 2>you drinking coffee? Once I realized I can't go back

0:02:10.560 --> 0:02:13.840
<v Speaker 2>to sleep, I'm still it doesn't matter. So that's that's

0:02:13.880 --> 0:02:16.120
<v Speaker 2>what my week has been like. Well, I'm gonna force

0:02:16.160 --> 0:02:18.679
<v Speaker 2>myself to stay up late one of these days try

0:02:18.720 --> 0:02:21.040
<v Speaker 2>to get back on schedule. So the jet lag didn't

0:02:21.080 --> 0:02:23.240
<v Speaker 2>hit me in Japan, it's hitting me here in the States.

0:02:23.280 --> 0:02:25.280
<v Speaker 2>But we have a ton to do today. Here's what

0:02:25.320 --> 0:02:28.399
<v Speaker 2>we are not doing on the show today. Mike Tyson's

0:02:28.400 --> 0:02:31.080
<v Speaker 2>gonna fight Jake Paul. That's the dumbest thing ever. George

0:02:31.080 --> 0:02:34.320
<v Speaker 2>Brett wants a Kaufman Stadium urinal. George Brett's kind of

0:02:34.360 --> 0:02:36.640
<v Speaker 2>an odd dude, I'll be honest with you. And Joey

0:02:36.720 --> 0:02:41.200
<v Speaker 2>Chestnut wins a Parrogi eating contest. I think the producers

0:02:41.360 --> 0:02:44.920
<v Speaker 2>think I have far more interest in Joey Chestnut than

0:02:44.919 --> 0:02:46.799
<v Speaker 2>I actually do, because a year and a half ago

0:02:46.840 --> 0:02:50.920
<v Speaker 2>I gave an all time great right public defender for

0:02:51.160 --> 0:02:54.200
<v Speaker 2>Joey Chestnut. It was, you know, it was really it

0:02:54.320 --> 0:02:57.000
<v Speaker 2>was one of my more brilliant moments on the pod.

0:02:57.040 --> 0:02:59.120
<v Speaker 2>But I don't really give a damn about Joey Chestnut.

0:02:59.160 --> 0:03:01.160
<v Speaker 2>And he was mean to my friend DA when he

0:03:01.200 --> 0:03:03.639
<v Speaker 2>had him in studio years ago, so I actually don't

0:03:03.639 --> 0:03:05.720
<v Speaker 2>even really like that fella. But I just, you know,

0:03:05.960 --> 0:03:07.600
<v Speaker 2>the public defender you have to defend, do you after

0:03:07.600 --> 0:03:09.040
<v Speaker 2>you defend demons? How are you?

0:03:09.680 --> 0:03:11.000
<v Speaker 3>I'm doing good, doing great?

0:03:13.400 --> 0:03:19.679
<v Speaker 2>So have you have you waded into any of the

0:03:19.720 --> 0:03:25.240
<v Speaker 2>internet discussion that I spurred with our semi viral ten

0:03:25.320 --> 0:03:28.240
<v Speaker 2>minute clip about the Lebron Jordan stuff.

0:03:29.360 --> 0:03:33.360
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, so I've seen much less serious arguments on it,

0:03:33.400 --> 0:03:35.280
<v Speaker 3>But yes, I definitely see it.

0:03:36.840 --> 0:03:40.680
<v Speaker 2>So if I made for a moment. So our pal

0:03:40.800 --> 0:03:46.000
<v Speaker 2>Bamani Jones sent out this tweet this morning and it

0:03:46.080 --> 0:03:48.680
<v Speaker 2>was pretty good. He writes, I'll hand it to my

0:03:48.720 --> 0:03:52.320
<v Speaker 2>buddy Nick. He gets y'all to still engage that goat debate.

0:03:52.920 --> 0:03:55.800
<v Speaker 2>All his logic and theory works except for one thing.

0:03:56.440 --> 0:03:59.240
<v Speaker 2>We were there, we saw it. We were there in

0:03:59.320 --> 0:04:02.640
<v Speaker 2>ninety one, we were there in ninety six, and this

0:04:02.720 --> 0:04:04.960
<v Speaker 2>is the big one. We were there in twenty ten

0:04:05.080 --> 0:04:08.880
<v Speaker 2>and twenty eleven. It's over. And then he writes, and yes,

0:04:08.960 --> 0:04:11.640
<v Speaker 2>I turned off, replies because if I don't want to

0:04:11.680 --> 0:04:15.240
<v Speaker 2>hear what my intelligent good friend has to say about this,

0:04:15.600 --> 0:04:17.280
<v Speaker 2>I sure as bleep don't want to hear what you

0:04:17.320 --> 0:04:19.960
<v Speaker 2>guys think about it. And then Bomani argued with people

0:04:20.000 --> 0:04:21.920
<v Speaker 2>about it for an hour, because no matter how much

0:04:21.920 --> 0:04:24.040
<v Speaker 2>you say you don't want to engage in the goat debate,

0:04:24.400 --> 0:04:28.720
<v Speaker 2>you just can't help yourself. And here's what I'll say,

0:04:28.800 --> 0:04:31.000
<v Speaker 2>Because we have a lot of stuff to get into.

0:04:31.080 --> 0:04:34.640
<v Speaker 2>The Lakers loss last night, the Warriors blew out the Bucks,

0:04:34.960 --> 0:04:37.839
<v Speaker 2>the bills are falling apart at the seams, all of that,

0:04:39.680 --> 0:04:44.679
<v Speaker 2>But I want to revisit, just for a moment demons.

0:04:44.839 --> 0:04:50.520
<v Speaker 2>Here's the thing, man, I won the argument. And you

0:04:50.560 --> 0:04:54.320
<v Speaker 2>know why I won the argument because I once again,

0:04:56.040 --> 0:05:03.520
<v Speaker 2>I once again have forced people to unknowingly concede ground.

0:05:03.560 --> 0:05:08.200
<v Speaker 2>To me, this has been a multi year effort and

0:05:08.320 --> 0:05:10.839
<v Speaker 2>every and I don't do it that often, but every

0:05:10.920 --> 0:05:16.960
<v Speaker 2>time I engage, I attack a very specific flank of

0:05:17.040 --> 0:05:21.640
<v Speaker 2>the Jordans Zelotz army and I weaken it enough to

0:05:21.680 --> 0:05:24.960
<v Speaker 2>where they have to send troops that way, which weakens

0:05:25.000 --> 0:05:29.320
<v Speaker 2>the overall front that they have built up over twenty

0:05:29.320 --> 0:05:32.080
<v Speaker 2>five years. So this time I said, you know what,

0:05:34.040 --> 0:05:39.760
<v Speaker 2>everybody just concedes the whole peak argument. So I am

0:05:39.800 --> 0:05:47.640
<v Speaker 2>going to, like a surgeon, attack with precision that And

0:05:47.760 --> 0:05:51.400
<v Speaker 2>so the entirety of this week, people have not actually

0:05:51.480 --> 0:05:55.840
<v Speaker 2>been debating who's the goat. They've only been debating who

0:05:55.880 --> 0:05:59.400
<v Speaker 2>had the higher peak. Which the reason I say I

0:05:59.480 --> 0:06:04.279
<v Speaker 2>won is because now three months from now, six months

0:06:04.320 --> 0:06:08.080
<v Speaker 2>from now, anytime, is anyone going to be able to

0:06:08.120 --> 0:06:14.800
<v Speaker 2>say Jordan had the higher peak. It's not debatable, uh yetkinness,

0:06:15.160 --> 0:06:17.479
<v Speaker 2>you guys spend a lot of time debating it. It's

0:06:17.560 --> 0:06:22.560
<v Speaker 2>by definition debatable because you're debating it, So that's debatable,

0:06:22.839 --> 0:06:25.960
<v Speaker 2>you know, what. We didn't talk anything about longevity because

0:06:26.000 --> 0:06:30.160
<v Speaker 2>that is, by the definition not debatable. So now the whole,

0:06:30.240 --> 0:06:33.160
<v Speaker 2>the whole idea one of the one of their last

0:06:33.640 --> 0:06:38.120
<v Speaker 2>bastions of you know, unencroached upon ground, one of their

0:06:38.320 --> 0:06:41.000
<v Speaker 2>last fronts that they could just you know, have a

0:06:41.000 --> 0:06:43.720
<v Speaker 2>few centuries out they didn't have to worry about, they

0:06:43.720 --> 0:06:45.840
<v Speaker 2>didn't have to spend a lot of resources on. They

0:06:45.880 --> 0:06:49.400
<v Speaker 2>have spent all week. Oh they they they've been calling

0:06:49.440 --> 0:06:52.239
<v Speaker 2>in resources, send the memes.

0:06:52.200 --> 0:06:53.400
<v Speaker 3>Send the.

0:06:55.960 --> 0:06:59.520
<v Speaker 2>Exactly. No, they don't none of it. And you know what,

0:06:59.560 --> 0:07:02.679
<v Speaker 2>you servely haven't heard a lot of talk about twenty eleven.

0:07:03.440 --> 0:07:06.560
<v Speaker 2>Haven't heard a lot of talk about swept in the No, no, no,

0:07:06.760 --> 0:07:10.360
<v Speaker 2>because that's not what we're talking about. We're talking about peaks.

0:07:10.960 --> 0:07:13.520
<v Speaker 2>And you want to say it's not a debate, but

0:07:13.720 --> 0:07:17.040
<v Speaker 2>you've spent three days debating it, so it is a debate.

0:07:17.360 --> 0:07:19.520
<v Speaker 2>If I came on this show and I said, you

0:07:19.560 --> 0:07:25.800
<v Speaker 2>know what, I want to talk Mahomes v. Brady, and

0:07:25.880 --> 0:07:33.000
<v Speaker 2>I think Mahomes is the better winner, just the better winner,

0:07:33.200 --> 0:07:36.920
<v Speaker 2>guess what, it wouldn't cause three days of debate because

0:07:36.920 --> 0:07:39.800
<v Speaker 2>that's not debatable at the moment. No, Brady's won seven

0:07:39.840 --> 0:07:41.800
<v Speaker 2>Super Bowls. He beat him head dead in the plaffs.

0:07:41.840 --> 0:07:45.520
<v Speaker 2>It's not debatable, but I said, I said, let's talk peak.

0:07:45.640 --> 0:07:48.440
<v Speaker 2>Something you guys say is not debatable, and now you've

0:07:48.440 --> 0:07:51.920
<v Speaker 2>spent all week debating it. By definition, that is now debatable.

0:07:52.000 --> 0:07:54.640
<v Speaker 2>So take that little piece of argument out of your

0:07:54.720 --> 0:07:57.280
<v Speaker 2>arsenal at it to mine, and you look at the

0:07:57.320 --> 0:07:59.600
<v Speaker 2>scales and all of a sudden, you're like Jesus christ Man,

0:08:00.000 --> 0:08:04.440
<v Speaker 2>we're getting outflanked all over the place. So the Overton

0:08:04.560 --> 0:08:07.720
<v Speaker 2>window has moved once again on the Lebron Jordan debate,

0:08:08.120 --> 0:08:13.520
<v Speaker 2>thanks to yours truly and the number of people who

0:08:13.560 --> 0:08:18.360
<v Speaker 2>are angriest about this that have you know, either some

0:08:18.680 --> 0:08:21.800
<v Speaker 2>type of if you whenever you see the people angriest

0:08:21.840 --> 0:08:25.320
<v Speaker 2>about about the argument, a nice fun thing you can

0:08:25.360 --> 0:08:28.480
<v Speaker 2>do on Twitter is go to their profile and click

0:08:28.640 --> 0:08:31.640
<v Speaker 2>media and see how many tweets you have to scroll

0:08:31.720 --> 0:08:35.880
<v Speaker 2>down before you see a photoshop Lebron James crying tweet

0:08:36.160 --> 0:08:41.320
<v Speaker 2>or some infographic with wildly incorrect information. And you know,

0:08:42.559 --> 0:08:45.560
<v Speaker 2>people are getting nervous, and so yeah, so my work

0:08:45.600 --> 0:08:48.920
<v Speaker 2>here is done. You know, in three months, four months,

0:08:49.000 --> 0:08:51.520
<v Speaker 2>five months, we might re engage once again and so

0:08:52.120 --> 0:08:55.160
<v Speaker 2>I feel great about it. Now to today's show demands,

0:08:55.280 --> 0:08:56.080
<v Speaker 2>what are we starting with?

0:08:56.679 --> 0:08:59.440
<v Speaker 3>I'm glad you feeling great about it, Pops. But yeah,

0:08:59.640 --> 0:09:03.800
<v Speaker 3>so we were originally going to talk about NBA five

0:09:04.640 --> 0:09:06.520
<v Speaker 3>I hear myself in here. We're going to talk about

0:09:06.520 --> 0:09:10.040
<v Speaker 3>an NBA Finals preview and nugget Celtic tonight. But you

0:09:10.120 --> 0:09:12.520
<v Speaker 3>wanted to clear that out to talk about Buffalo clearing

0:09:12.559 --> 0:09:16.360
<v Speaker 3>cap space. So they just cleared I did. They cleared

0:09:16.360 --> 0:09:18.559
<v Speaker 3>thirty five million in cap space by cutting a bunch

0:09:18.600 --> 0:09:21.880
<v Speaker 3>of players and three of their starters and when they're safeties,

0:09:21.960 --> 0:09:25.160
<v Speaker 3>Jordan Poyer, do you think the Bills are throwing in

0:09:25.240 --> 0:09:27.199
<v Speaker 3>the towel or do you think they're getting ready to

0:09:27.240 --> 0:09:27.960
<v Speaker 3>make a big move.

0:09:28.960 --> 0:09:30.840
<v Speaker 2>No, there's no big move they can make. What they're

0:09:30.840 --> 0:09:34.320
<v Speaker 2>doing is they are paying the bill that has come due.

0:09:35.080 --> 0:09:38.640
<v Speaker 2>And folks can say all they want and people think

0:09:38.679 --> 0:09:40.160
<v Speaker 2>I want to talk about this because I want to

0:09:40.160 --> 0:09:43.160
<v Speaker 2>take shots at Buffalo. That's not actually it. That's just

0:09:43.200 --> 0:09:46.600
<v Speaker 2>an added bonus. I want to talk about this because

0:09:47.480 --> 0:09:51.000
<v Speaker 2>my colleagues in the media have done a poor job,

0:09:51.080 --> 0:09:56.840
<v Speaker 2>not all, but some on explaining what the salary cap is,

0:09:57.960 --> 0:10:02.480
<v Speaker 2>and folks think it's fake. Folks think, oh, you can

0:10:02.520 --> 0:10:07.640
<v Speaker 2>always move money around, you can always you know, restructure,

0:10:08.640 --> 0:10:15.120
<v Speaker 2>And that is true to a degree. But eventually all

0:10:15.360 --> 0:10:20.880
<v Speaker 2>of these bills come due, no pun intended, every dollar,

0:10:21.679 --> 0:10:25.840
<v Speaker 2>every single dollar that is paid to a football player

0:10:25.960 --> 0:10:30.320
<v Speaker 2>by the team, at some point shows up on some

0:10:30.640 --> 0:10:35.920
<v Speaker 2>year's cap table. And because of that, the Buffalo Bills

0:10:36.880 --> 0:10:40.840
<v Speaker 2>had to move on from both of their safeties Tredavious White,

0:10:41.640 --> 0:10:44.080
<v Speaker 2>They had to move on from players they would otherwise

0:10:44.200 --> 0:10:49.079
<v Speaker 2>like to keep because they got a little over zealous

0:10:49.120 --> 0:10:53.200
<v Speaker 2>a couple years ago and signed Von Miller to an

0:10:53.240 --> 0:10:57.240
<v Speaker 2>absurd contract because they said, you know what, screw We're

0:10:57.240 --> 0:11:01.000
<v Speaker 2>going all in. We're going for it right now. And

0:11:01.240 --> 0:11:03.599
<v Speaker 2>what they have to show for it is nothing. What

0:11:03.720 --> 0:11:05.840
<v Speaker 2>they have to show for it is some really exciting

0:11:05.880 --> 0:11:14.280
<v Speaker 2>playoff losses. That's it. And the Denver Broncos, you know what,

0:11:14.760 --> 0:11:18.000
<v Speaker 2>now's our chance. We're gonna go get Russell Wilson. We're

0:11:18.000 --> 0:11:21.240
<v Speaker 2>gonna make a significant move. We're gonna sign Randy Gregory,

0:11:21.240 --> 0:11:24.760
<v Speaker 2>We're gonna sign Frank Clark, gonna do all these things. Oh,

0:11:25.360 --> 0:11:30.080
<v Speaker 2>Justin Simmons, the second best player on our team in

0:11:30.160 --> 0:11:33.320
<v Speaker 2>the prime of his career three straight all pros. We

0:11:33.440 --> 0:11:39.480
<v Speaker 2>have to cut you because that bill came due. And

0:11:40.559 --> 0:11:48.920
<v Speaker 2>so there is whenever you see a team go you know, start,

0:11:49.520 --> 0:11:55.240
<v Speaker 2>Whenever you see a team and make a signing and

0:11:55.320 --> 0:11:58.280
<v Speaker 2>you say, oh my god, how do they have the

0:11:58.320 --> 0:12:01.920
<v Speaker 2>money for that? And you turn on TV and they're like, man,

0:12:02.960 --> 0:12:07.520
<v Speaker 2>GMx at it again. He's a real cap magician. What

0:12:07.640 --> 0:12:12.760
<v Speaker 2>that means is he's borrowing from future years and that

0:12:12.840 --> 0:12:16.600
<v Speaker 2>can work. The Bucks did it when Brady was there.

0:12:16.840 --> 0:12:19.839
<v Speaker 2>They won a championship. The Rams did it right when

0:12:19.840 --> 0:12:23.400
<v Speaker 2>they got Stafford. They won a championship. They then had

0:12:23.440 --> 0:12:27.800
<v Speaker 2>some lean times while they cleaned it up. The problem

0:12:27.920 --> 0:12:31.000
<v Speaker 2>is if you do it and don't win a championship

0:12:31.480 --> 0:12:35.640
<v Speaker 2>the next year, you don't want to admit, ah, we

0:12:35.640 --> 0:12:38.360
<v Speaker 2>didn't quite get it all right. Let's borrow from another

0:12:38.520 --> 0:12:42.199
<v Speaker 2>Let's we were borrowing from next year. Now, let's borrow

0:12:42.320 --> 0:12:48.520
<v Speaker 2>more from two years down the road. And eventually it's like, guys,

0:12:49.720 --> 0:12:54.440
<v Speaker 2>we have to be CAP compliant by March thirteenth. We

0:12:54.559 --> 0:12:59.920
<v Speaker 2>are forty million over without adding our draft class, without

0:13:00.120 --> 0:13:03.440
<v Speaker 2>adding free agents. What do we do? And the answer

0:13:03.520 --> 0:13:08.200
<v Speaker 2>is cut players you'd otherwise like to keep and that's

0:13:08.240 --> 0:13:09.880
<v Speaker 2>a tough spot to be in if you got nothing

0:13:09.920 --> 0:13:12.680
<v Speaker 2>to show for it as an added bonus. And this

0:13:12.760 --> 0:13:16.800
<v Speaker 2>is what with respect to the producers, they didn't understand

0:13:17.240 --> 0:13:21.000
<v Speaker 2>was the real this is where it is about Buffalo.

0:13:22.160 --> 0:13:28.040
<v Speaker 2>The real reason seeing the name tra Davious White was

0:13:28.160 --> 0:13:33.920
<v Speaker 2>cut from the Bills really got my heart palpitating. Is

0:13:36.880 --> 0:13:41.880
<v Speaker 2>you know how the Chiefs had the twenty seventh pick

0:13:43.160 --> 0:13:46.720
<v Speaker 2>and they saw Patrick Mahomes and they desperately wanted them,

0:13:47.120 --> 0:13:51.880
<v Speaker 2>and so they traded that pick to Buffalo along with

0:13:52.679 --> 0:13:56.760
<v Speaker 2>another first round pick, another draft capital to go get

0:13:56.800 --> 0:14:01.880
<v Speaker 2>Patrick Mahomes in what is the greatest trade in NFL history.

0:14:02.559 --> 0:14:04.520
<v Speaker 2>And the flip side, you know, kind of the worst

0:14:04.640 --> 0:14:07.319
<v Speaker 2>trade in NFL history for Buffalo because they had Tyrod

0:14:07.320 --> 0:14:10.560
<v Speaker 2>Taylor's their quarterback and Nathan Peterman and they you know,

0:14:10.640 --> 0:14:14.360
<v Speaker 2>they didn't want to draft Patrick Mahomes, the blue chip

0:14:14.440 --> 0:14:19.040
<v Speaker 2>player the Bills got in that trade and he guesses

0:14:19.080 --> 0:14:25.920
<v Speaker 2>who it was. Yeah, they got four players that they

0:14:26.000 --> 0:14:29.920
<v Speaker 2>drafted with those picks the Chiefs traded to him Tradeavious

0:14:29.960 --> 0:14:33.520
<v Speaker 2>White was the last remaining Bill and now he's gone.

0:14:35.080 --> 0:14:39.200
<v Speaker 2>And so in a trade seven years.

0:14:38.960 --> 0:14:42.040
<v Speaker 3>Ago, you know they can finally start fresh.

0:14:42.120 --> 0:14:45.680
<v Speaker 2>Maybe none of that start fresh? Okay, you know that

0:14:45.760 --> 0:14:47.360
<v Speaker 2>is that is a kind way to look at it.

0:14:47.400 --> 0:14:50.520
<v Speaker 2>Another way to look at it is this seven years ago,

0:14:50.560 --> 0:14:53.800
<v Speaker 2>the Chiefs and the Bills made a trade. Since they

0:14:53.840 --> 0:14:56.480
<v Speaker 2>made that trade, the Chiefs have won three Super Bowls,

0:14:56.480 --> 0:14:59.160
<v Speaker 2>been to four, beating the Bills in the playoffs three times.

0:15:00.080 --> 0:15:03.760
<v Speaker 2>The Bills have done nothing. What the Chiefs have left

0:15:03.800 --> 0:15:08.920
<v Speaker 2>from that trade is the most talented player in NFL history.

0:15:09.480 --> 0:15:12.120
<v Speaker 2>And when the Bills have left from that trade is

0:15:12.200 --> 0:15:14.800
<v Speaker 2>sixteen million dollars of dead cap space.

0:15:16.680 --> 0:15:17.239
<v Speaker 3>Thanks.

0:15:18.080 --> 0:15:20.880
<v Speaker 2>I'm not saying it's the Babe Ruth trade because at

0:15:21.000 --> 0:15:24.200
<v Speaker 2>least the Red Sox got the money to, you know,

0:15:24.360 --> 0:15:26.760
<v Speaker 2>put on that Broadway show that the owner was trying

0:15:26.800 --> 0:15:29.960
<v Speaker 2>to put on. It's a little worse, all right, what's next?

0:15:30.280 --> 0:15:32.840
<v Speaker 2>That is true? Look it up. Demands traded Babe Ruth

0:15:32.840 --> 0:15:35.160
<v Speaker 2>because the owner wanted to put on a play, needed

0:15:35.200 --> 0:15:37.760
<v Speaker 2>some pack traded in the Yankees. Yeah, look it up.

0:15:37.760 --> 0:15:38.120
<v Speaker 2>The truth.

0:15:41.000 --> 0:15:43.720
<v Speaker 3>So you put the Lakers yesterday on the show in

0:15:43.760 --> 0:15:47.400
<v Speaker 3>the terrifying for a series or two category, which means

0:15:47.400 --> 0:15:52.640
<v Speaker 3>that they're basically cooked in Cleveland and Miami. Lebron always

0:15:52.720 --> 0:15:55.400
<v Speaker 3>knew the best time to leave with the Lakers. It

0:15:55.480 --> 0:15:57.760
<v Speaker 3>kind of seems like he's trying to stick it out.

0:15:58.200 --> 0:15:59.960
<v Speaker 3>Do you think it'd be better if they just lost

0:16:00.320 --> 0:16:02.920
<v Speaker 3>to make it easier for Lebron, or like winning kind

0:16:02.920 --> 0:16:04.640
<v Speaker 3>of confuse him and make him stay. What do you

0:16:04.640 --> 0:16:05.320
<v Speaker 3>think Lebron should?

0:16:05.440 --> 0:16:08.720
<v Speaker 2>I got you so I know what I want him

0:16:08.760 --> 0:16:10.160
<v Speaker 2>to do, and I think I know what he's going

0:16:10.240 --> 0:16:12.400
<v Speaker 2>to do. But before I do that, let me go

0:16:12.600 --> 0:16:15.920
<v Speaker 2>micro for a moment, because late last night, the Lakers

0:16:15.960 --> 0:16:21.440
<v Speaker 2>lost once again to the Sacramento Kings. Truly baffling performance

0:16:21.680 --> 0:16:24.320
<v Speaker 2>by all parties, except for, of course, Lebron, who had

0:16:24.360 --> 0:16:28.720
<v Speaker 2>thirty one points thirteen assists on ten of sixteen from

0:16:28.760 --> 0:16:32.520
<v Speaker 2>the field. He was excellent, But eight ad does not

0:16:32.720 --> 0:16:38.880
<v Speaker 2>do well with these European sinners. Is Sabonis? I think

0:16:38.960 --> 0:16:42.120
<v Speaker 2>it's nine DeMont de Sabonis. I think it's nine to

0:16:42.160 --> 0:16:45.160
<v Speaker 2>zero in his career against Anthony Davis. You guys can

0:16:45.200 --> 0:16:47.200
<v Speaker 2>fact check me on that. I believe that to be true,

0:16:47.680 --> 0:16:52.840
<v Speaker 2>and that Lakers have lost nine straight to Jokic. These

0:16:53.040 --> 0:16:59.240
<v Speaker 2>these you know, burlier, more physical, but also great passing sinners,

0:16:59.280 --> 0:17:01.800
<v Speaker 2>and it's maybe it's one of the reasons they traditionally

0:17:01.840 --> 0:17:04.480
<v Speaker 2>didn't want to play center. The Lakers, of course didn't

0:17:04.480 --> 0:17:08.639
<v Speaker 2>don't have an actual backup center on the roster NBA caliber.

0:17:08.640 --> 0:17:11.960
<v Speaker 2>I don't care what say Jackson Aeses, So that's a problem. Also,

0:17:12.400 --> 0:17:15.720
<v Speaker 2>if you watched the Lakers Kings game last night, which

0:17:15.800 --> 0:17:18.320
<v Speaker 2>last night I did not watch because, as I said,

0:17:18.640 --> 0:17:21.120
<v Speaker 2>I might, I've had this wild jet leg. I felt

0:17:21.119 --> 0:17:23.359
<v Speaker 2>sleep at nine o'clock last night. But luckily when you

0:17:23.400 --> 0:17:25.680
<v Speaker 2>wake up at one point thirty in the morning, yeah,

0:17:25.680 --> 0:17:28.359
<v Speaker 2>I got plenty of time today to rewatch it this morning.

0:17:28.680 --> 0:17:32.280
<v Speaker 2>What you saw was the Lakers got out to a

0:17:32.320 --> 0:17:37.520
<v Speaker 2>great start, and this is a really important game because

0:17:37.520 --> 0:17:40.879
<v Speaker 2>they're trying to catch the Kings, and the Kings are

0:17:40.920 --> 0:17:43.679
<v Speaker 2>now three and zero against him this year, so if

0:17:43.720 --> 0:17:46.000
<v Speaker 2>there's a if they finished with the same record, the

0:17:46.119 --> 0:17:48.800
<v Speaker 2>Kings will have Tibergers. This is a bad loss. Lakers

0:17:48.800 --> 0:17:53.320
<v Speaker 2>got out to a great start. The starters were cooking

0:17:53.359 --> 0:17:56.320
<v Speaker 2>the Kings for the first six minutes of the game.

0:17:56.359 --> 0:18:04.000
<v Speaker 2>They were up seventeen points early. The starters started and

0:18:04.119 --> 0:18:09.480
<v Speaker 2>played the first six minutes or so together. That lineup

0:18:09.800 --> 0:18:15.680
<v Speaker 2>the starting five the rest of the game played zero

0:18:15.800 --> 0:18:21.800
<v Speaker 2>minutes together. I mean that listen. Sometimes Darvin Ham gets

0:18:21.840 --> 0:18:28.359
<v Speaker 2>over criticized and sometimes Man a week ago, Cam Reddish

0:18:28.800 --> 0:18:33.399
<v Speaker 2>was in your closing lineup against Denver yesterday D and

0:18:33.480 --> 0:18:37.720
<v Speaker 2>B coaches decision. I mean it is it is some

0:18:37.880 --> 0:18:42.200
<v Speaker 2>tough sledding with some of these Darvin Ham coaching decisions,

0:18:42.240 --> 0:18:46.119
<v Speaker 2>and so all of that, you know, is what the

0:18:46.200 --> 0:18:50.199
<v Speaker 2>Lakers are. Lebron is still great, ad He's you know,

0:18:50.280 --> 0:18:52.679
<v Speaker 2>he's had trouble against the Kings and the Nuggets, but

0:18:52.720 --> 0:18:57.040
<v Speaker 2>he's been excellent this year. I you know, way too

0:18:57.080 --> 0:19:01.480
<v Speaker 2>much Torriyan prints in the as diet in my opinion,

0:19:01.520 --> 0:19:03.919
<v Speaker 2>But what are you gonna do? So to get to

0:19:04.040 --> 0:19:08.760
<v Speaker 2>your question, and the producers confirmed it, So bonus nine

0:19:08.800 --> 0:19:15.160
<v Speaker 2>to zero against Anthony Davis's not great. Lebron's not gonna

0:19:15.240 --> 0:19:24.240
<v Speaker 2>leave it bums me out. I wish he would, I

0:19:24.240 --> 0:19:26.000
<v Speaker 2>I don't think.

0:19:27.359 --> 0:19:27.520
<v Speaker 3>So.

0:19:27.840 --> 0:19:34.080
<v Speaker 2>I don't think Bronnie is going to go to the

0:19:34.160 --> 0:19:38.720
<v Speaker 2>Pros next year, and that the Bronnie stuff is a

0:19:38.720 --> 0:19:40.960
<v Speaker 2>whole different discussion, but I don't really want to have

0:19:41.000 --> 0:19:44.200
<v Speaker 2>it right now. I think Bronni's gonna go back to USC.

0:19:45.480 --> 0:19:48.240
<v Speaker 2>I think Lebron wants to be there. I think his

0:19:48.359 --> 0:19:52.439
<v Speaker 2>wife loves LA. I think his businesses love LA. I

0:19:52.480 --> 0:19:57.199
<v Speaker 2>think his family he loves l A. I Bryce is

0:19:57.200 --> 0:19:59.320
<v Speaker 2>playing high school ball. I don't think he wants to.

0:19:59.359 --> 0:20:02.360
<v Speaker 3>Leave much more of the go debate. Does it silence

0:20:02.440 --> 0:20:04.240
<v Speaker 3>if Lebron wins one more ring?

0:20:05.720 --> 0:20:05.960
<v Speaker 2>Well?

0:20:06.040 --> 0:20:06.520
<v Speaker 3>Do you think?

0:20:06.560 --> 0:20:15.359
<v Speaker 2>Here's the thing? I I think there are many people

0:20:15.400 --> 0:20:18.080
<v Speaker 2>that are entrenched and we'll just say, okay, so now

0:20:18.119 --> 0:20:21.080
<v Speaker 2>he's at six, he is at five, but Michael's at six.

0:20:21.600 --> 0:20:28.520
<v Speaker 2>Obviously it would help, But I I don't think I.

0:20:28.520 --> 0:20:31.800
<v Speaker 2>I think it is going to be very, very difficult.

0:20:32.040 --> 0:20:36.280
<v Speaker 2>Lebron right now is at best the fifth best player

0:20:36.320 --> 0:20:38.679
<v Speaker 2>in the league and at worst the tenth best player

0:20:38.680 --> 0:20:45.000
<v Speaker 2>in the league. That sounds great. That guy doesn't typically

0:20:45.080 --> 0:20:48.200
<v Speaker 2>win the title as the as a team's best player.

0:20:48.600 --> 0:20:53.199
<v Speaker 2>That's Jason Tatum's hurdle. Jason Tatum is at best the

0:20:53.240 --> 0:20:55.119
<v Speaker 2>fifth best player in the league and at worst the

0:20:55.160 --> 0:20:57.840
<v Speaker 2>eighth best player in the league. It sounds great except

0:20:57.880 --> 0:21:01.359
<v Speaker 2>for when you realize usually the the title goes to

0:21:01.840 --> 0:21:04.159
<v Speaker 2>one of the three best players in the league. Just

0:21:04.320 --> 0:21:09.720
<v Speaker 2>go down the list of champions over everyone's lifetime ever

0:21:10.400 --> 0:21:14.919
<v Speaker 2>and you can find like three instances in the last

0:21:15.040 --> 0:21:20.760
<v Speaker 2>honestly forty years where that wasn't the case. So it's

0:21:20.920 --> 0:21:25.200
<v Speaker 2>just so. The reason I say that is if Lebron

0:21:25.240 --> 0:21:28.520
<v Speaker 2>were to win a title as the second best guy

0:21:28.720 --> 0:21:32.720
<v Speaker 2>on someone else's team, I don't think it probably moves

0:21:32.800 --> 0:21:37.359
<v Speaker 2>the goat debate that much. Hell, folks, he won a

0:21:37.480 --> 0:21:41.000
<v Speaker 2>title in resounding fashion as the best player on his

0:21:41.040 --> 0:21:44.200
<v Speaker 2>own team, and folks said that one didn't count because

0:21:44.240 --> 0:21:48.080
<v Speaker 2>it was in Orlando at Disney World. Like the idea

0:21:48.200 --> 0:21:51.119
<v Speaker 2>like there, I mean, there's the idea that if he

0:21:51.240 --> 0:21:54.280
<v Speaker 2>wins the title is a second option, folks and be like, well,

0:21:54.280 --> 0:21:58.200
<v Speaker 2>that does it, and so could he. What's so frustrating

0:21:58.240 --> 0:22:02.600
<v Speaker 2>to me is I still think in any given series

0:22:03.000 --> 0:22:05.160
<v Speaker 2>he can turn up and play like one of those

0:22:05.200 --> 0:22:07.760
<v Speaker 2>three best players in the world. But I don't think

0:22:07.760 --> 0:22:10.120
<v Speaker 2>he can do it for two months, and the Lakers

0:22:10.119 --> 0:22:13.240
<v Speaker 2>don't have the supporting cast. So I just think he

0:22:13.320 --> 0:22:17.679
<v Speaker 2>wants to stay in LA. For me, as a fan,

0:22:19.000 --> 0:22:22.000
<v Speaker 2>the best thing that could happen for me is the

0:22:22.080 --> 0:22:24.680
<v Speaker 2>Lakers stab him in the back, be like we don't

0:22:24.680 --> 0:22:27.639
<v Speaker 2>want you anymore, you have to leave. But they're not

0:22:27.640 --> 0:22:31.240
<v Speaker 2>gonna do that, and so I just think the Lakers

0:22:31.280 --> 0:22:36.320
<v Speaker 2>are I mean, they're just eh, They're just fine and

0:22:36.520 --> 0:22:37.520
<v Speaker 2>it's a bummer. All right.

0:22:37.640 --> 0:22:40.400
<v Speaker 3>Next, all right, so you had a very cool, calm

0:22:40.440 --> 0:22:45.399
<v Speaker 3>and collected response on TV with your co host saying

0:22:45.400 --> 0:22:48.960
<v Speaker 3>that Jason Tatum should win the MVP. I think he

0:22:49.040 --> 0:22:52.320
<v Speaker 3>might have walked off. But so it kind of seems

0:22:53.040 --> 0:22:54.800
<v Speaker 3>kind of seems like you're trying to say that Joki

0:22:54.920 --> 0:22:57.840
<v Speaker 3>should be MVP without saying that he should be it

0:22:58.920 --> 0:23:00.840
<v Speaker 3>this so right now is the MVP.

0:23:01.960 --> 0:23:08.360
<v Speaker 2>Right now, Jokic is the m v P. I think no. Yeah,

0:23:08.480 --> 0:23:14.000
<v Speaker 2>with the confirmation, I can develop new opinions also. But

0:23:14.840 --> 0:23:21.080
<v Speaker 2>so a couple things. I was apoplectic at Kevin Wilde's

0:23:21.640 --> 0:23:25.719
<v Speaker 2>about the Tatum stuff because the entirety of his argument

0:23:25.880 --> 0:23:28.040
<v Speaker 2>was the Celtics have the best record, Tatum is their

0:23:28.040 --> 0:23:31.320
<v Speaker 2>best player, and that is just that is not what

0:23:31.400 --> 0:23:34.159
<v Speaker 2>the league MVP is supposed to be. And now it

0:23:34.440 --> 0:23:38.960
<v Speaker 2>very often is the league MVP is on the best team.

0:23:39.400 --> 0:23:43.040
<v Speaker 2>I get that, But the idea that we have to

0:23:44.080 --> 0:23:48.240
<v Speaker 2>Wild's who I adore. Everybody knows how much I love Wilds,

0:23:49.040 --> 0:23:55.199
<v Speaker 2>So I can say this, Wild's trying to turn almost

0:23:55.520 --> 0:24:02.720
<v Speaker 2>any type of award or all time ranking or goat

0:24:02.840 --> 0:24:07.919
<v Speaker 2>discussion or MVP discussion or anything into some dumb man's

0:24:08.040 --> 0:24:13.120
<v Speaker 2>version of QB wins is maddening. It's just then, then

0:24:13.200 --> 0:24:17.960
<v Speaker 2>why have any awards. Just wait until the year's over,

0:24:18.600 --> 0:24:21.399
<v Speaker 2>and whoever wins the championship, that guy's the coach of

0:24:21.440 --> 0:24:24.080
<v Speaker 2>the Year. Their GM's the GM of the Year, their

0:24:24.119 --> 0:24:27.040
<v Speaker 2>best players, the MVP, their first guy off the bench

0:24:27.160 --> 0:24:29.840
<v Speaker 2>is the sixth man, their best rookies, Rookie of the Year.

0:24:30.520 --> 0:24:35.320
<v Speaker 2>He wants to He doesn't want Wimby to win Rookie

0:24:35.400 --> 0:24:38.720
<v Speaker 2>of the Year because the Spurs don't have enough wins.

0:24:39.359 --> 0:24:43.000
<v Speaker 2>It's the Rookie of the Year award. He's like, well,

0:24:43.080 --> 0:24:45.000
<v Speaker 2>the Chets thunder pretty good. I'm like, give me I

0:24:45.400 --> 0:24:48.480
<v Speaker 2>just and so that's what made me walk off the set.

0:24:49.400 --> 0:24:51.440
<v Speaker 2>And I shouldn't talk about Wilds when he's not here

0:24:51.440 --> 0:24:55.199
<v Speaker 2>to defend himself. But when he is around to defend himself,

0:24:55.200 --> 0:24:57.880
<v Speaker 2>he doesn't do a good job on this. He's just like, ah,

0:24:58.480 --> 0:25:02.480
<v Speaker 2>goals to win, Like man, I know that, that's why

0:25:02.520 --> 0:25:06.320
<v Speaker 2>they give a team championship trophy, but that is not

0:25:06.440 --> 0:25:10.359
<v Speaker 2>the league MVP. So that's what frustrated me. It's not

0:25:10.480 --> 0:25:13.119
<v Speaker 2>that I'm naturally have an allergy to Yo get or

0:25:13.160 --> 0:25:17.680
<v Speaker 2>to Tatum being league MVP. The reason Jason Tatum isn't

0:25:17.680 --> 0:25:20.400
<v Speaker 2>the league VP is because Jason Tatum's not the league VP.

0:25:21.880 --> 0:25:24.520
<v Speaker 2>The reason Tatum's not the league MVP is because nobody

0:25:24.560 --> 0:25:29.760
<v Speaker 2>thinks he's more valuable or better than Yo get your Giannis. Nobody,

0:25:30.800 --> 0:25:32.160
<v Speaker 2>literally nobody.

0:25:31.720 --> 0:25:33.760
<v Speaker 3>Probably just like the same type of thing that you

0:25:33.840 --> 0:25:36.200
<v Speaker 3>have with height and quarterbacks, probably just because those guys

0:25:36.200 --> 0:25:39.280
<v Speaker 3>are bigger. Jason Tatum is like three or four inches taller.

0:25:41.119 --> 0:25:44.840
<v Speaker 2>Maybe right now, are you saying if Jason Tatum were taller,

0:25:44.920 --> 0:25:47.960
<v Speaker 2>he might be better. Or if Jason Tatum were taller

0:25:48.000 --> 0:25:50.400
<v Speaker 2>and the exact same player, I would like him more.

0:25:50.440 --> 0:25:50.960
<v Speaker 2>Which are you.

0:25:50.960 --> 0:25:54.359
<v Speaker 3>Saying that one? The second one? You'd like him more

0:25:54.359 --> 0:25:55.199
<v Speaker 3>if you were that?

0:25:55.400 --> 0:26:01.119
<v Speaker 2>No, that is Tatum is Lebron's height. He No, you

0:26:01.200 --> 0:26:04.960
<v Speaker 2>can be that. Silue Steph is six ' three. Steph's

0:26:05.000 --> 0:26:05.520
<v Speaker 2>your side.

0:26:05.640 --> 0:26:07.479
<v Speaker 3>If the candidates you're saying should be over him, we're

0:26:07.520 --> 0:26:09.080
<v Speaker 3>like four or five inches taller than him, So I'm

0:26:09.119 --> 0:26:09.640
<v Speaker 3>just going off.

0:26:09.840 --> 0:26:13.040
<v Speaker 2>But they're better than him. They're also better than him,

0:26:13.080 --> 0:26:16.680
<v Speaker 2>And also Shae has a better argument than Tatum, and

0:26:16.760 --> 0:26:18.240
<v Speaker 2>Shay is way shorter than.

0:26:18.200 --> 0:26:23.159
<v Speaker 3>Him the Celtics. No, you're gonna drive me.

0:26:24.800 --> 0:26:31.840
<v Speaker 2>It's not It is not a Again, is there a

0:26:32.080 --> 0:26:36.960
<v Speaker 2>minimum threshold of winning one's team must do to be

0:26:37.040 --> 0:26:41.920
<v Speaker 2>in the MVP conversation? Absolutely well, Nick, you contradict yourself. No,

0:26:42.119 --> 0:26:46.000
<v Speaker 2>of course I didn't. Because in basketball, in a five

0:26:46.080 --> 0:26:49.280
<v Speaker 2>on five sport, when you play both ends, if you

0:26:49.359 --> 0:26:55.320
<v Speaker 2>are truly an MVP candidate, your team's gotta win, you know,

0:26:55.840 --> 0:26:58.720
<v Speaker 2>obviously more than it loses, and actually has to win

0:26:58.880 --> 0:27:03.560
<v Speaker 2>at a high high light. That's why Luca, despite being

0:27:03.800 --> 0:27:08.040
<v Speaker 2>thirty five, nine and nine, is not right now as

0:27:08.119 --> 0:27:11.760
<v Speaker 2>serious candidate because the team's not good enough. Yes, there's

0:27:11.840 --> 0:27:15.479
<v Speaker 2>a minimum level of winning one's team must do in

0:27:15.640 --> 0:27:19.920
<v Speaker 2>order to demonstrate your value, But the idea that the

0:27:19.960 --> 0:27:24.800
<v Speaker 2>pool of candidates must only be players on the team

0:27:24.880 --> 0:27:28.240
<v Speaker 2>with the best record is the dumbest thing I've ever heard.

0:27:29.680 --> 0:27:33.400
<v Speaker 2>It just doesn't and I didn't do a good job

0:27:33.920 --> 0:27:38.000
<v Speaker 2>explaining on the I got so angry I was. I

0:27:38.119 --> 0:27:41.000
<v Speaker 2>couldn't say it. But we're about to have the oscars

0:27:41.080 --> 0:27:45.919
<v Speaker 2>right the way some of these folks want to do

0:27:46.160 --> 0:27:51.800
<v Speaker 2>League MVP, it would just be this what's best picture? Okay?

0:27:52.000 --> 0:27:54.639
<v Speaker 2>Who was the best actor in that that's the best actor.

0:27:54.960 --> 0:27:57.960
<v Speaker 2>Who's the best supporting actor. That's your best supporting actor.

0:27:58.080 --> 0:28:01.119
<v Speaker 2>Who's the best actress. That's that. It'd be like, well, no,

0:28:01.240 --> 0:28:06.520
<v Speaker 2>but somebody acted better in a different movie that didn't

0:28:06.560 --> 0:28:09.440
<v Speaker 2>win Best Picture. Oh, what's the goal? Is the goal

0:28:09.480 --> 0:28:12.320
<v Speaker 2>to make the best movie possible. If that's the goal,

0:28:12.359 --> 0:28:15.640
<v Speaker 2>then what are we talking about. I mean, it's ridiculous,

0:28:15.960 --> 0:28:20.119
<v Speaker 2>it's just dumb and so and again, I want to

0:28:20.160 --> 0:28:23.560
<v Speaker 2>be clear, because this isn't just wilds and Wild isn't

0:28:23.560 --> 0:28:26.640
<v Speaker 2>here to defend himself. I am not calling Wild's dumb.

0:28:26.680 --> 0:28:32.600
<v Speaker 2>Wild is not dumb. Wild's MVP argument is the argument

0:28:32.600 --> 0:28:36.000
<v Speaker 2>a dumb person would make. That's just a coincidence. All right,

0:28:36.080 --> 0:28:40.440
<v Speaker 2>let's move on. Oh you know what's great about this?

0:28:40.560 --> 0:28:43.320
<v Speaker 2>Hold on, let me say one other thing. What's great

0:28:43.360 --> 0:28:46.480
<v Speaker 2>about this is in the All right, let me paint

0:28:46.520 --> 0:28:49.720
<v Speaker 2>the picture of the first thing's first offices. So on

0:28:51.200 --> 0:28:55.120
<v Speaker 2>the floor where we work. We're not where the show

0:28:55.200 --> 0:28:59.040
<v Speaker 2>is recorded, but where we do all our pre show work.

0:28:59.360 --> 0:29:03.040
<v Speaker 2>You come up the stairs and there's a long, thin hallway,

0:29:03.160 --> 0:29:05.040
<v Speaker 2>and at the end of the hallway is a big

0:29:05.080 --> 0:29:09.840
<v Speaker 2>conference room with a bank of TVs. In that conference

0:29:09.920 --> 0:29:14.640
<v Speaker 2>room is where all the producers work, where Dusty is

0:29:14.680 --> 0:29:17.360
<v Speaker 2>who watches the show. In Dusty every time the pod

0:29:17.480 --> 0:29:21.240
<v Speaker 2>is on, turns it on and plays it volume up.

0:29:22.200 --> 0:29:25.760
<v Speaker 2>Wilds's office is like halfway down the hall, and wild

0:29:26.280 --> 0:29:32.880
<v Speaker 2>has only ever seen the podcast by accident. He's never

0:29:32.920 --> 0:29:35.720
<v Speaker 2>watched it except for when he walks into the conference

0:29:35.800 --> 0:29:39.840
<v Speaker 2>room and says something and it's on. So right now,

0:29:39.960 --> 0:29:43.720
<v Speaker 2>at first things first, what I think is happening is

0:29:43.760 --> 0:29:47.560
<v Speaker 2>Wild's is likely kind of somewhat hearing his name a lot,

0:29:48.240 --> 0:29:53.320
<v Speaker 2>and probably somewhat curious what's being said, but doesn't want

0:29:53.360 --> 0:29:59.080
<v Speaker 2>to actually engage. And the producers in the room, my guess,

0:29:59.760 --> 0:30:05.440
<v Speaker 2>are a stifling a little laughter as to not insult Wilds,

0:30:05.480 --> 0:30:08.320
<v Speaker 2>because again I am not Wilds is a very smart

0:30:08.320 --> 0:30:11.240
<v Speaker 2>guy and the key to the show, and I'm incredibly

0:30:11.280 --> 0:30:14.680
<v Speaker 2>grateful for his to work with him and for his friendship,

0:30:15.080 --> 0:30:17.440
<v Speaker 2>and I'm not calling him dumb. He just makes a

0:30:17.440 --> 0:30:20.400
<v Speaker 2>lot of the same arguments dumb people make and they

0:30:20.440 --> 0:30:23.320
<v Speaker 2>frustrate me because he's better than that. And so that's

0:30:23.360 --> 0:30:25.240
<v Speaker 2>all okay, all right, now, let's move on, go.

0:30:25.200 --> 0:30:28.320
<v Speaker 3>Ahead, all right, Well, speaking to Luca, he's having a

0:30:28.320 --> 0:30:32.440
<v Speaker 3>really good season having Kyrie are obviously gelling together, I

0:30:32.440 --> 0:30:35.280
<v Speaker 3>guess now, obviously because they've lost five of their last

0:30:35.320 --> 0:30:38.960
<v Speaker 3>six games and they're eighth in the West. So if

0:30:38.960 --> 0:30:40.840
<v Speaker 3>the MAVs don't turn it around, do you think it's

0:30:40.880 --> 0:30:43.920
<v Speaker 3>possible that Luca ends up calling it splits with the Mavericks.

0:30:45.800 --> 0:30:50.640
<v Speaker 2>Well, I mean that's everyone's biggest concern, and that's why

0:30:50.680 --> 0:30:53.640
<v Speaker 2>they made the Kyrie trade, was to be like, no, Luca,

0:30:53.680 --> 0:30:57.040
<v Speaker 2>we're serious. But that's what I tell you guys the

0:30:57.120 --> 0:31:01.360
<v Speaker 2>day after they made the Kyrie trade. When Luca eventually

0:31:01.480 --> 0:31:04.680
<v Speaker 2>leaves Dallas, this will be one of the primary reasons

0:31:04.720 --> 0:31:05.080
<v Speaker 2>go ahead.

0:31:06.320 --> 0:31:08.560
<v Speaker 3>What would be one of the primary reasons. What would

0:31:08.560 --> 0:31:10.320
<v Speaker 3>be one of the primary reasons.

0:31:10.600 --> 0:31:12.080
<v Speaker 2>Them trading for Kyrie?

0:31:13.880 --> 0:31:16.760
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, because I thought the way that you I remember

0:31:16.800 --> 0:31:18.840
<v Speaker 3>you speaking of the Kyrie thing, it's just like, oh,

0:31:18.880 --> 0:31:20.960
<v Speaker 3>you just got to sit and stand by until something

0:31:21.000 --> 0:31:23.840
<v Speaker 3>else happens. But it's not. Do you think Kyrie is

0:31:23.840 --> 0:31:24.600
<v Speaker 3>the problem here?

0:31:25.840 --> 0:31:28.520
<v Speaker 2>No, So that's a good point. Kyrie has been on

0:31:29.160 --> 0:31:33.000
<v Speaker 2>great behavior and has conducted himself well. But this is

0:31:33.040 --> 0:31:35.760
<v Speaker 2>one of the other reasons I was so against the trade,

0:31:36.360 --> 0:31:41.280
<v Speaker 2>even without Kyrie, even with him on his best behavior.

0:31:41.680 --> 0:31:46.320
<v Speaker 2>They used all their last remaining assets to get somebody

0:31:47.120 --> 0:31:50.240
<v Speaker 2>who is not at all what they need. If you

0:31:50.280 --> 0:31:53.440
<v Speaker 2>have Luca, you don't need a point. One goal is

0:31:53.480 --> 0:31:56.560
<v Speaker 2>not have another, you know, scorer that needs the ball

0:31:56.600 --> 0:31:59.840
<v Speaker 2>in his hands. That And so you make a good point.

0:32:00.120 --> 0:32:02.840
<v Speaker 2>Kyrie hasn't done anything wrong, and Kyrie's having a great

0:32:02.880 --> 0:32:05.720
<v Speaker 2>season deserves credit for that, but it just doesn't fit.

0:32:06.400 --> 0:32:09.200
<v Speaker 2>And what we've also know about Kyrie, and I'm not

0:32:09.200 --> 0:32:12.960
<v Speaker 2>trying to take shots here, is he's He's never contributed

0:32:13.000 --> 0:32:16.680
<v Speaker 2>to winning in any environment except for the three years

0:32:16.680 --> 0:32:19.840
<v Speaker 2>he played with Lebron before Lebron got there. They didn't

0:32:19.840 --> 0:32:23.440
<v Speaker 2>contribute to winning. With Brooklyn, he didn't, and here he's not.

0:32:23.840 --> 0:32:28.360
<v Speaker 2>So I just thought, so, even if you know everything

0:32:28.520 --> 0:32:32.480
<v Speaker 2>works out with Kyrie, which it has, the winning's not

0:32:32.560 --> 0:32:35.680
<v Speaker 2>gonna come. And I think Luca's gonna want to win.

0:32:35.840 --> 0:32:40.880
<v Speaker 2>So Luca has two years left on his contract, right

0:32:43.160 --> 0:32:46.840
<v Speaker 2>I I'd start getting nervous after this year.

0:32:46.840 --> 0:32:47.600
<v Speaker 3>He has two years.

0:32:47.680 --> 0:32:52.880
<v Speaker 2>If I were Dallas, I'd start getting nervous because now

0:32:52.960 --> 0:32:56.160
<v Speaker 2>Luca's obviously got to own some of this and take

0:32:56.240 --> 0:32:58.920
<v Speaker 2>some accountability for this. He needs to be better on

0:32:58.960 --> 0:33:02.520
<v Speaker 2>the defensive side of the ball, all these things, but

0:33:02.640 --> 0:33:06.719
<v Speaker 2>Luca is by any metric one of the at worst

0:33:06.800 --> 0:33:09.880
<v Speaker 2>five best players in the league. In my opinion, he's

0:33:09.920 --> 0:33:14.440
<v Speaker 2>the third best player in the league, and there's no

0:33:14.560 --> 0:33:17.160
<v Speaker 2>reason for the team to be for the second straight

0:33:17.240 --> 0:33:21.720
<v Speaker 2>year as mediocre as it's been. So yeah, i'd be

0:33:21.760 --> 0:33:24.640
<v Speaker 2>nervous if I were Dallas. All right, that finals preview.

0:33:24.640 --> 0:33:26.560
<v Speaker 2>They wanted to start the show with, we'll do that. Oh,

0:33:26.600 --> 0:33:27.760
<v Speaker 2>go ahead, What were you about to say?

0:33:27.840 --> 0:33:30.360
<v Speaker 3>You were? Yeah, so it seems like you were right

0:33:30.360 --> 0:33:32.600
<v Speaker 3>about what's going on on the third floor. Back to

0:33:32.680 --> 0:33:33.040
<v Speaker 3>the base.

0:33:33.200 --> 0:33:37.240
<v Speaker 2>Oh, Dusty, Dusty chimed in, appreciate that, dust all right,

0:33:37.600 --> 0:33:46.040
<v Speaker 2>Finals preview? Next, what's right? All right? Welcome back in.

0:33:46.080 --> 0:33:48.920
<v Speaker 2>We'll dry with the great episode two nineteen. All right, demons,

0:33:49.160 --> 0:33:51.800
<v Speaker 2>let's get to what should be one of the best

0:33:51.800 --> 0:33:53.280
<v Speaker 2>games of the NBA season night.

0:33:53.320 --> 0:33:56.400
<v Speaker 3>Go ahead, Yes, So the defending champs are playing the

0:33:56.400 --> 0:33:58.840
<v Speaker 3>best team in the NBA as of now, in the Celtics,

0:33:59.160 --> 0:34:01.200
<v Speaker 3>and the Celtics are going to bounce back after they

0:34:01.200 --> 0:34:04.120
<v Speaker 3>blew a lead to the Cleveland on Tuesday. Do you

0:34:04.160 --> 0:34:06.200
<v Speaker 3>think this is a finals preview or what are we

0:34:06.240 --> 0:34:07.720
<v Speaker 3>watching it. What are we watching for?

0:34:09.120 --> 0:34:12.240
<v Speaker 2>Well, listen, I mean Vegas thinks it's a finals preview,

0:34:12.480 --> 0:34:17.960
<v Speaker 2>and I think Denver is incredibly likely to end up

0:34:18.320 --> 0:34:21.279
<v Speaker 2>in the finals on the western side of the bracket.

0:34:22.080 --> 0:34:24.040
<v Speaker 2>By the way, I just thought of this because I

0:34:24.080 --> 0:34:27.480
<v Speaker 2>was trying to think, is there a scenario where you

0:34:27.560 --> 0:34:30.359
<v Speaker 2>could get to go to a finals game? So I'll

0:34:30.400 --> 0:34:37.239
<v Speaker 2>just make this commitment here. If the either LA team

0:34:37.320 --> 0:34:40.160
<v Speaker 2>makes it and Boston makes it, I'll get you some

0:34:40.320 --> 0:34:43.600
<v Speaker 2>bad tickets to one of the games so you can, oh, yeah,

0:34:43.640 --> 0:34:46.440
<v Speaker 2>the let's do it the the Clippers, the Clippers are

0:34:46.480 --> 0:34:49.799
<v Speaker 2>your better bet to end up making the finals than

0:34:49.840 --> 0:34:54.399
<v Speaker 2>the Lakers are. But if either one of her playing, Yeah,

0:34:54.440 --> 0:34:56.160
<v Speaker 2>what do you think? I was saying, Well, I mean,

0:34:56.200 --> 0:34:57.719
<v Speaker 2>how else could we do it? How else can they

0:34:57.719 --> 0:34:59.840
<v Speaker 2>be playing the Celtics? I was saying, because you're a

0:35:00.000 --> 0:35:03.239
<v Speaker 2>Celtics fan. I was saying, if they and there's you

0:35:03.280 --> 0:35:03.719
<v Speaker 2>live in l.

0:35:03.719 --> 0:35:07.080
<v Speaker 3>As the Clippers going to face up with the Nuggets,

0:35:07.120 --> 0:35:08.960
<v Speaker 3>and how are the Lakers gonna We saw how that

0:35:09.000 --> 0:35:09.680
<v Speaker 3>went last year.

0:35:10.080 --> 0:35:12.920
<v Speaker 2>No, right, well, listen, I was they to when I

0:35:13.000 --> 0:35:16.000
<v Speaker 2>made this multi thousand dollars commitment out of nowhere. That

0:35:16.160 --> 0:35:18.400
<v Speaker 2>is I'm probably not gonna have to come through on it,

0:35:18.840 --> 0:35:21.960
<v Speaker 2>but I'm not not saying if it, I'll fly you

0:35:22.040 --> 0:35:25.359
<v Speaker 2>to Denver. I mean they're they're more likely to make it,

0:35:25.760 --> 0:35:28.319
<v Speaker 2>But if it were to happen, I did this for

0:35:28.760 --> 0:35:32.839
<v Speaker 2>uh Man. Sometimes I get myself in trouble with this

0:35:33.280 --> 0:35:35.640
<v Speaker 2>one of them, and then I'll do the finals preview thing.

0:35:36.200 --> 0:35:41.120
<v Speaker 2>I was very confident that the Knicks were totally cooked

0:35:41.200 --> 0:35:44.719
<v Speaker 2>last year. Let me see what game it was. Hold on.

0:35:44.920 --> 0:35:48.120
<v Speaker 2>I want to get this right. So we have on

0:35:48.200 --> 0:35:49.360
<v Speaker 2>the TV show.

0:35:51.400 --> 0:35:51.440
<v Speaker 3>A.

0:35:51.800 --> 0:35:56.960
<v Speaker 2>When I say die hard, I mean the most die

0:35:57.000 --> 0:36:01.680
<v Speaker 2>hard sports fan I've ever met. I've ever met under

0:36:01.719 --> 0:36:04.759
<v Speaker 2>any circumstances, for any team.

0:36:05.200 --> 0:36:06.200
<v Speaker 3>Uh it's huge.

0:36:07.160 --> 0:36:10.520
<v Speaker 2>This this when I so this gid we talked about

0:36:10.560 --> 0:36:12.360
<v Speaker 2>him on the show some not this kid's name Ramsey.

0:36:12.640 --> 0:36:14.960
<v Speaker 2>He's a great producer. I shouldn't say kid, but I

0:36:15.239 --> 0:36:20.160
<v Speaker 2>think he's your your age so kid to me and

0:36:21.640 --> 0:36:26.480
<v Speaker 2>he when I say loves the Knicks, I mean I

0:36:26.520 --> 0:36:31.839
<v Speaker 2>think and he's such a nice guy, gets angry when

0:36:31.960 --> 0:36:34.800
<v Speaker 2>like I snub one of the Knicks from the the

0:36:34.920 --> 0:36:37.759
<v Speaker 2>NBA Medals. He used to sit next to me in

0:36:37.840 --> 0:36:40.560
<v Speaker 2>the office. He still sometimes does, and I glance over

0:36:40.680 --> 0:36:44.239
<v Speaker 2>and he's just watching like Obie topping highlights from when

0:36:44.440 --> 0:36:48.040
<v Speaker 2>he was on the team. I mean a true die hard,

0:36:48.560 --> 0:36:54.319
<v Speaker 2>like a legitimate true die hard. And I thought the

0:36:54.440 --> 0:37:01.480
<v Speaker 2>Knicks were cooked and I don't even know what it. No,

0:37:01.560 --> 0:37:04.320
<v Speaker 2>it definitely was the playoffs, so I'm I'm trying to remember.

0:37:04.640 --> 0:37:09.480
<v Speaker 2>It doesn't really matter regardless. I said kind of flippantly

0:37:11.040 --> 0:37:15.920
<v Speaker 2>that if the Knicks were in a position to where

0:37:16.160 --> 0:37:19.759
<v Speaker 2>they had a big playoff home game, not like you

0:37:19.800 --> 0:37:21.840
<v Speaker 2>know they're gonna get swept or something, a big playoff

0:37:21.840 --> 0:37:25.240
<v Speaker 2>home game, I was like, Ramsey, I'll buy you a ticket,

0:37:26.400 --> 0:37:30.680
<v Speaker 2>and I was being dead serious, but I also did

0:37:30.719 --> 0:37:33.160
<v Speaker 2>not think it was going to happen. And then the

0:37:33.200 --> 0:37:35.879
<v Speaker 2>Knicks split the first two in Cleveland, and then they

0:37:35.880 --> 0:37:39.040
<v Speaker 2>had a game three at the Garden. I think that's

0:37:39.080 --> 0:37:41.040
<v Speaker 2>what it was. Whatever it is, I know the Knicks one.

0:37:41.280 --> 0:37:44.240
<v Speaker 2>I know I bought the ticket, and I know Ramsey

0:37:44.280 --> 0:37:46.239
<v Speaker 2>said it was the greatest sporting of it he'd ever

0:37:46.280 --> 0:37:48.640
<v Speaker 2>been to in his life. But that was an example,

0:37:48.760 --> 0:37:50.360
<v Speaker 2>so I felt good about it. It was it was

0:37:50.400 --> 0:37:55.920
<v Speaker 2>a cool thing, but also I yeah, exactly right. But

0:37:55.960 --> 0:37:57.920
<v Speaker 2>it was also similar to this, which is when I

0:37:58.040 --> 0:38:00.799
<v Speaker 2>said it. I didn't actually think that they gonna get there,

0:38:01.040 --> 0:38:03.520
<v Speaker 2>and then they got there, so hey, maybe maybe the

0:38:03.560 --> 0:38:05.480
<v Speaker 2>Celtics will win the East and one of the LA

0:38:05.560 --> 0:38:06.920
<v Speaker 2>teams will be in the finals. We'll get to go

0:38:06.960 --> 0:38:12.360
<v Speaker 2>to it. But now to the topic. I here's my

0:38:12.440 --> 0:38:19.160
<v Speaker 2>concern about Boston. They suck at the end of close games,

0:38:19.840 --> 0:38:23.880
<v Speaker 2>and they have for a couple of years. And this

0:38:24.080 --> 0:38:29.279
<v Speaker 2>is also some of my trepidation about Tatum. Tom Haberstrow,

0:38:29.880 --> 0:38:32.080
<v Speaker 2>who has a sub stack. You gotta pay for it,

0:38:32.120 --> 0:38:34.440
<v Speaker 2>but it's like sixty bucks for the year. If you're

0:38:34.480 --> 0:38:37.399
<v Speaker 2>a big NBA fan, you know it's five bucks a month.

0:38:37.520 --> 0:38:39.960
<v Speaker 2>I think it's worth it. He did an article on

0:38:40.040 --> 0:38:46.080
<v Speaker 2>Tatum yesterday that is galling. As far as okay, MVP

0:38:46.360 --> 0:38:49.680
<v Speaker 2>candidates and their effective field goal percentage in the clutch

0:38:49.760 --> 0:38:54.000
<v Speaker 2>this year, Shay sixty two percent. Again, effective field goal

0:38:54.000 --> 0:38:56.160
<v Speaker 2>percentage showed incorporates three is are worth more than two?

0:38:56.239 --> 0:39:02.640
<v Speaker 2>But just it's fine. Jokic sixty one, Jannis fifty nine percent,

0:39:03.200 --> 0:39:09.400
<v Speaker 2>Luca fifty four percent, Tatum thirty eight percent. Okay, is

0:39:09.440 --> 0:39:14.040
<v Speaker 2>that outlier. Tatum's effective field goal percentage in the clutch

0:39:15.120 --> 0:39:19.760
<v Speaker 2>two years ago thirty eight and a half percent. Last

0:39:19.840 --> 0:39:24.840
<v Speaker 2>year thirty eight point three percent, this year thirty eight percent.

0:39:25.800 --> 0:39:32.359
<v Speaker 2>Tatum three point shooting in the clutch nineteen percent. So

0:39:33.239 --> 0:39:33.680
<v Speaker 2>and this is.

0:39:33.680 --> 0:39:37.280
<v Speaker 3>All happen in those moments, I notice.

0:39:37.320 --> 0:39:42.240
<v Speaker 2>Correct, So that is that's exactly right. His shot selection

0:39:42.600 --> 0:39:47.799
<v Speaker 2>is very poor, and this is where and so just

0:39:47.800 --> 0:39:52.120
<v Speaker 2>just for the for the context here of everyone in

0:39:52.160 --> 0:39:55.759
<v Speaker 2>the league that's over the last three years taking at

0:39:55.880 --> 0:40:02.520
<v Speaker 2>least two hundred clutch shots, all right, there's only one, two, three,

0:40:04.040 --> 0:40:07.719
<v Speaker 2>eleven or twelve guys, and here's who they are. Number one,

0:40:07.840 --> 0:40:12.520
<v Speaker 2>shout out Daniel Jokic. This effective field goal percentage at

0:40:12.520 --> 0:40:18.760
<v Speaker 2>fifty five percent. Number two steph fifty three percent. Number

0:40:18.800 --> 0:40:23.920
<v Speaker 2>three DeRozan, shout out Damar fifty two percent. Number four

0:40:24.480 --> 0:40:27.480
<v Speaker 2>Fox fifty one percent. He just won Clutch Player of

0:40:27.520 --> 0:40:31.560
<v Speaker 2>the Year. Number five Embeid fifty one percent. Tied with

0:40:31.680 --> 0:40:38.320
<v Speaker 2>Lebron at fifty one percent. Number seven Shay forty eight percent,

0:40:39.160 --> 0:40:44.560
<v Speaker 2>Number eight Durant forty seven percent, nine Trey Young forty

0:40:44.600 --> 0:40:49.800
<v Speaker 2>six percent, ten Dejante Murray forty five percent, eleven Donovan

0:40:49.840 --> 0:40:55.759
<v Speaker 2>Mitchell forty four percent, twelve Tatum thirty eight percent. So

0:40:56.360 --> 0:40:58.920
<v Speaker 2>of there's twelve guys that have taken a lot of

0:40:58.960 --> 0:41:02.399
<v Speaker 2>these shots. He last by a lot. And you say

0:41:02.480 --> 0:41:06.840
<v Speaker 2>shot selection, demanse, that is the problem. This is where

0:41:09.080 --> 0:41:15.600
<v Speaker 2>the idolization of Kobe can bite you a bit. Yeah,

0:41:16.000 --> 0:41:22.440
<v Speaker 2>so two things on Kobe. One is, and this is

0:41:22.480 --> 0:41:26.200
<v Speaker 2>gonna end up being at least a partial compliment. Kobe

0:41:26.239 --> 0:41:31.000
<v Speaker 2>took terrible shots. What made him special was he could

0:41:31.000 --> 0:41:34.560
<v Speaker 2>make them. But even Kobe, who was as good of

0:41:34.600 --> 0:41:37.280
<v Speaker 2>a bad shot maker as the league has ever seen,

0:41:38.200 --> 0:41:44.120
<v Speaker 2>was not that efficient because nobody is super efficient on

0:41:44.719 --> 0:41:47.399
<v Speaker 2>the on hard tough shots, you know what I mean,

0:41:47.480 --> 0:41:54.120
<v Speaker 2>on a tough shot. So if we just take Kobe's peak, right,

0:41:54.840 --> 0:42:01.360
<v Speaker 2>if we take from Kobe's basically O two season through

0:42:02.320 --> 0:42:07.799
<v Speaker 2>his last championship, even just that peak, Kobe was a

0:42:07.840 --> 0:42:12.440
<v Speaker 2>forty five percent shooter because and thirty four percent from three.

0:42:13.000 --> 0:42:16.240
<v Speaker 2>For his career, he was around the same, actually forty

0:42:16.400 --> 0:42:18.560
<v Speaker 2>just under forty five percent of the field and just

0:42:18.680 --> 0:42:22.800
<v Speaker 2>under thirty three percent from three. But he was taking

0:42:22.840 --> 0:42:28.880
<v Speaker 2>impossible shots. Tatum is a really really good player, and

0:42:28.920 --> 0:42:30.239
<v Speaker 2>he's taking similarly in.

0:42:30.320 --> 0:42:34.359
<v Speaker 3>Boston shots, right.

0:42:34.520 --> 0:42:38.040
<v Speaker 2>So that's the other thing. And the thing when you

0:42:38.080 --> 0:42:41.440
<v Speaker 2>take contested jumpers, you never get to the line you

0:42:41.480 --> 0:42:43.359
<v Speaker 2>know at the end of games you're not. And so

0:42:43.920 --> 0:42:47.359
<v Speaker 2>that's my concern for Boston is I don't know they're

0:42:47.360 --> 0:42:51.399
<v Speaker 2>gonna blow everybody out. And if these games are close late,

0:42:52.600 --> 0:42:57.359
<v Speaker 2>do you trust Jimmy Butler in the heat more? I do?

0:42:57.360 --> 0:42:59.839
<v Speaker 2>Do you trust Milwaukee more?

0:43:00.320 --> 0:43:03.920
<v Speaker 3>Maybe now the defense in any situation though they have

0:43:04.040 --> 0:43:06.799
<v Speaker 3>that going like at the end of the day, I mean,

0:43:06.880 --> 0:43:11.359
<v Speaker 3>Miami's Miami's defense isn't Boston's defense. But but I get

0:43:11.400 --> 0:43:13.279
<v Speaker 3>what you're saying, like when it comes to late that

0:43:13.360 --> 0:43:14.840
<v Speaker 3>makes mistakes taking the right shot.

0:43:15.080 --> 0:43:19.399
<v Speaker 2>But also Boston is truly they're not trying to make

0:43:19.440 --> 0:43:23.440
<v Speaker 2>the finals. They're trying to win the title. And Denver,

0:43:24.960 --> 0:43:28.720
<v Speaker 2>their late game execution is the best of the Jokic

0:43:28.800 --> 0:43:31.840
<v Speaker 2>gets them a good shot every time. It doesn't mean

0:43:31.920 --> 0:43:34.400
<v Speaker 2>Jokic is taking it, and when they have it, and

0:43:34.480 --> 0:43:38.120
<v Speaker 2>the few times Denver has a bad possession, Jokic just

0:43:38.280 --> 0:43:41.200
<v Speaker 2>throws up that horse over the head tree and he

0:43:41.280 --> 0:43:43.719
<v Speaker 2>banks it in more than any guy I've ever seen

0:43:43.760 --> 0:43:46.879
<v Speaker 2>in my life. I understand that that is a little

0:43:46.920 --> 0:43:51.319
<v Speaker 2>confirmation biased, but sweet Jesus man, that guy makes more

0:43:51.440 --> 0:43:59.239
<v Speaker 2>buzzing shot ending just the demoralizing, nonsense shots. And so

0:44:00.120 --> 0:44:03.760
<v Speaker 2>I tonight will be interesting to watch, But I don't

0:44:05.280 --> 0:44:08.799
<v Speaker 2>I trust gun to my head, Miami and Milwaukee out

0:44:08.880 --> 0:44:12.040
<v Speaker 2>of the East more than Boston, despite Boston his home court,

0:44:12.080 --> 0:44:14.919
<v Speaker 2>despite Boston, all these things. So we'll see. But yeah,

0:44:15.040 --> 0:44:20.960
<v Speaker 2>tonight should be fun. I oddly, I think Boston is

0:44:21.000 --> 0:44:25.760
<v Speaker 2>gonna sound unfair. I think Boston it would be better

0:44:25.800 --> 0:44:27.680
<v Speaker 2>for them to win a close game than to blow

0:44:27.719 --> 0:44:30.680
<v Speaker 2>Denver out. I think if you if it's a nip

0:44:30.680 --> 0:44:33.200
<v Speaker 2>and tuck game and Boston comes out of it, that's

0:44:33.200 --> 0:44:39.920
<v Speaker 2>actually better than them blowing Denver out. Exactly right, All right,

0:44:40.000 --> 0:44:41.160
<v Speaker 2>let's play right ends.

0:44:41.480 --> 0:44:43.560
<v Speaker 3>All right, playing right ins today. So we're gonna talk

0:44:43.600 --> 0:44:46.279
<v Speaker 3>a little bit of NFL before a free agency. So

0:44:46.320 --> 0:44:50.359
<v Speaker 3>you know, on Tuesday we discussed, uh, Justin phil Oh

0:44:50.400 --> 0:44:53.680
<v Speaker 3>that's a new one. So on Tuesday we discussed Justin

0:44:53.719 --> 0:44:56.359
<v Speaker 3>Fields and Russell Wilson. But there are plenty other huge

0:44:56.360 --> 0:44:59.520
<v Speaker 3>dominoes so in today. So in today's right, and you're

0:44:59.520 --> 0:45:03.520
<v Speaker 3>gonna predict the future about these free agents. So first off, yep,

0:45:03.600 --> 0:45:07.360
<v Speaker 3>we got Baker. Tampa remains the favorite for Baker, but

0:45:07.400 --> 0:45:10.000
<v Speaker 3>Baker has been rumored to be in the solution for

0:45:10.040 --> 0:45:13.839
<v Speaker 3>a few teams, including New England. Baker will sign with.

0:45:15.239 --> 0:45:18.879
<v Speaker 2>Listen, I think he's gonna sign with Tampa. I think

0:45:18.880 --> 0:45:24.359
<v Speaker 2>he's probably gonna get three years, one hundred million thereabouts,

0:45:24.360 --> 0:45:31.040
<v Speaker 2>with like sixty five million guaranteed. But the New England

0:45:31.080 --> 0:45:35.719
<v Speaker 2>thing is interesting. If I were New England and I

0:45:35.800 --> 0:45:46.879
<v Speaker 2>were trying to unless I absolutely loved at least two

0:45:46.920 --> 0:45:50.560
<v Speaker 2>of the quarterbacks other than Caleb, because thing is, you

0:45:50.560 --> 0:45:53.600
<v Speaker 2>don't know who's gonna be there at three. You can say, oh,

0:45:53.640 --> 0:45:57.799
<v Speaker 2>I love Jaden Daniels or I love Drake May. You

0:45:57.840 --> 0:45:59.880
<v Speaker 2>don't one of them. You don't know which one's going

0:45:59.920 --> 0:46:02.960
<v Speaker 2>to be there. Now. If you love JJ McCarthy, you

0:46:03.000 --> 0:46:06.520
<v Speaker 2>watch different tape than I did, or listen, I'm different.

0:46:06.520 --> 0:46:08.320
<v Speaker 2>I shouldn't say tape. I'm not watching the all twenty

0:46:08.320 --> 0:46:11.719
<v Speaker 2>two college football, but you watch different Michigan games than

0:46:11.760 --> 0:46:14.399
<v Speaker 2>I did. That's fine. He'll be there. If you love

0:46:14.440 --> 0:46:18.520
<v Speaker 2>one of them, that's fine. But there is an argument

0:46:18.600 --> 0:46:22.640
<v Speaker 2>to be made with the Giants seemingly wanting a quarterback.

0:46:22.680 --> 0:46:25.759
<v Speaker 2>Minnesota is gonna want a quarterback. There's there's gonna be

0:46:25.800 --> 0:46:28.680
<v Speaker 2>these trade up trade teams that want to trade up

0:46:29.560 --> 0:46:32.960
<v Speaker 2>that if you're New England at three and you can

0:46:33.000 --> 0:46:36.440
<v Speaker 2>trade with the Giants at six and get an extra

0:46:36.600 --> 0:46:40.160
<v Speaker 2>first round pick, and then at six you draft either

0:46:40.239 --> 0:46:43.600
<v Speaker 2>Molik Neighbors, Roma Dunsay, if you want the wide receiver,

0:46:43.840 --> 0:46:46.839
<v Speaker 2>maybe Marvin Harrison. Juniors there are almost assuredly not he's

0:46:46.880 --> 0:46:51.120
<v Speaker 2>probably going Ford Arizona, Joe Ault, the franchise left tackle.

0:46:51.719 --> 0:46:53.680
<v Speaker 2>Or maybe if you're New England and you're like, you

0:46:53.719 --> 0:46:56.399
<v Speaker 2>know what, we need a lot of stuff, so we're

0:46:56.400 --> 0:46:59.680
<v Speaker 2>gonna go from three to six and get an extra first,

0:47:00.080 --> 0:47:02.920
<v Speaker 2>and then we're gonna go from six to eleven and

0:47:02.960 --> 0:47:06.680
<v Speaker 2>get another extra first, and now we're really cooking to

0:47:06.840 --> 0:47:11.000
<v Speaker 2>take best player available there and then sign Baker as

0:47:11.040 --> 0:47:14.799
<v Speaker 2>a stopgap. That might be the best team building move

0:47:15.239 --> 0:47:19.120
<v Speaker 2>unless you adore multiple of these quarterbacks in the draft.

0:47:19.360 --> 0:47:22.759
<v Speaker 2>But I think Baker's gonna I think Kirk Cousins is probably, oh,

0:47:22.760 --> 0:47:23.279
<v Speaker 2>we're doing that.

0:47:23.320 --> 0:47:23.600
<v Speaker 3>Next.

0:47:23.719 --> 0:47:27.319
<v Speaker 2>I think Baker's gonna sign with Tampa for probably three years,

0:47:27.360 --> 0:47:28.399
<v Speaker 2>one hundred million bucks.

0:47:28.440 --> 0:47:31.520
<v Speaker 3>All right, next, all right, you thought Atlanta was crazy

0:47:31.560 --> 0:47:35.520
<v Speaker 3>for considering Kirk Cousins over Justin Fields, but someone is

0:47:35.560 --> 0:47:38.000
<v Speaker 3>gonna give this guy another huge contract, So it might

0:47:38.040 --> 0:47:40.200
<v Speaker 3>even go back to You might even sign with Washington.

0:47:40.480 --> 0:47:41.960
<v Speaker 3>Where do you think the Cousins will go?

0:47:43.400 --> 0:47:46.279
<v Speaker 2>Well, I guess Washington theoretically could do the same thing

0:47:46.320 --> 0:47:49.400
<v Speaker 2>I'm talking about the Patriots doing, which is trade the

0:47:49.480 --> 0:47:52.640
<v Speaker 2>number two pick for an absolute bounty, signed Kirk and

0:47:52.719 --> 0:47:55.520
<v Speaker 2>go from there. I don't think that's gonna happen. The

0:47:55.560 --> 0:47:59.960
<v Speaker 2>Atlanta thing's interesting because evidently Cousins' wife is from that area.

0:48:00.200 --> 0:48:02.640
<v Speaker 2>Her in laws are there, and that's one of the

0:48:02.680 --> 0:48:04.719
<v Speaker 2>reasons he might want to be there. He's such a

0:48:04.719 --> 0:48:08.160
<v Speaker 2>family guy. So I didn't know that until yesterday. That's

0:48:08.200 --> 0:48:11.680
<v Speaker 2>an interesting wrinkle. It seems from the people that know

0:48:11.840 --> 0:48:16.239
<v Speaker 2>these things, it seems like everybody thinks Kirk's gonna go

0:48:16.280 --> 0:48:20.960
<v Speaker 2>to Atlanta, and that Atlanta's gonna draft a quarterback. And

0:48:21.120 --> 0:48:23.640
<v Speaker 2>I'm sorry that Minnesota's gonna draft a quarterback. Pardon me,

0:48:23.760 --> 0:48:26.680
<v Speaker 2>I said that wrong, That that Kirk's gonna go to Atlanta,

0:48:26.719 --> 0:48:29.480
<v Speaker 2>Minnesot's gonna draft a quarterback. That's not what I would

0:48:29.520 --> 0:48:31.920
<v Speaker 2>do if I were Atlanta. I don't think you're close

0:48:32.040 --> 0:48:35.040
<v Speaker 2>enough to try to, you know, sign a thirty six

0:48:35.120 --> 0:48:37.520
<v Speaker 2>year old post Achilles. But I think that's what's gonna happen.

0:48:38.040 --> 0:48:39.080
<v Speaker 2>All right, go ahead.

0:48:40.040 --> 0:48:42.640
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, So there are reports that the Cowboys were considering

0:48:42.719 --> 0:48:45.800
<v Speaker 3>Saquon Barkley, but their cap as it stands is already

0:48:45.800 --> 0:48:49.880
<v Speaker 3>pretty high or over there over the cappon will sign with.

0:48:52.000 --> 0:48:55.840
<v Speaker 2>Well, I don't know where he's gonna sign. I know

0:48:56.000 --> 0:49:00.960
<v Speaker 2>the teams that so the Cowboys signing sake, in my opinion,

0:49:00.960 --> 0:49:03.960
<v Speaker 2>would be silly. That is not their position of need,

0:49:04.320 --> 0:49:07.759
<v Speaker 2>and the Cowboys this offseason should not. The Cowboys were

0:49:07.800 --> 0:49:10.279
<v Speaker 2>the highest scoring team in the NFL last year, they

0:49:10.280 --> 0:49:13.160
<v Speaker 2>were third highest year before, they were the highest theear

0:49:13.200 --> 0:49:16.560
<v Speaker 2>before that. They don't need a shiny toy in the

0:49:16.719 --> 0:49:18.520
<v Speaker 2>you know what's going to be the most expensive running

0:49:18.560 --> 0:49:20.719
<v Speaker 2>back in the league, all Right'm sorry in this free

0:49:20.760 --> 0:49:24.120
<v Speaker 2>agency period, not the most expensive running back in the league. Also,

0:49:24.960 --> 0:49:32.160
<v Speaker 2>it does warrant mentioning that this is from somebody posted

0:49:32.239 --> 0:49:36.680
<v Speaker 2>Ah Taylor Doll posted this on Twitter. The last ten

0:49:36.840 --> 0:49:42.600
<v Speaker 2>Super Bowl winners, their running backs have made the following

0:49:43.840 --> 0:49:48.359
<v Speaker 2>eight hundred and seventy thousand, seven hundred thousand, one point

0:49:48.440 --> 0:49:53.200
<v Speaker 2>eight million, one point one million, one million, four hundred

0:49:53.239 --> 0:49:57.720
<v Speaker 2>and eighty thousand, seven hundred and sixty thousand, nine hundred thousand,

0:49:58.080 --> 0:50:00.719
<v Speaker 2>seven hundred and seventy thousand, four hundred and.

0:50:00.760 --> 0:50:04.080
<v Speaker 3>Twenty Thousand's big thing last year was getting paid.

0:50:05.239 --> 0:50:07.840
<v Speaker 2>Right, and he's gonna get I don't know what the

0:50:07.880 --> 0:50:10.080
<v Speaker 2>market's gonna be. I know that Saquan's gonna get the

0:50:10.080 --> 0:50:12.799
<v Speaker 2>most money of any of this running back market, so

0:50:13.640 --> 0:50:15.960
<v Speaker 2>that but that doesn't mean he's not a useful player,

0:50:16.120 --> 0:50:19.680
<v Speaker 2>win healthy. The team that if I were them, I

0:50:19.680 --> 0:50:22.240
<v Speaker 2>would say, you know what, I don't mind paying extra

0:50:22.920 --> 0:50:26.640
<v Speaker 2>a little running back tax. I've got the money. I'm

0:50:26.640 --> 0:50:30.640
<v Speaker 2>trying to really juice the window right now is the

0:50:30.680 --> 0:50:34.799
<v Speaker 2>Houston Texans with your guys with CJ. They need a

0:50:34.840 --> 0:50:38.319
<v Speaker 2>running back. They have the money, They've spent draft picks

0:50:38.320 --> 0:50:41.520
<v Speaker 2>on the wide receivers. Like the Texans to me make sense.

0:50:41.960 --> 0:50:44.920
<v Speaker 2>Another team that I would say, you know what, I

0:50:44.920 --> 0:50:47.960
<v Speaker 2>don't mind spending the money. I've got it, and I'm

0:50:47.960 --> 0:50:50.080
<v Speaker 2>gonna have a young quarterback that I want to support.

0:50:50.360 --> 0:50:55.640
<v Speaker 2>The Chicago Bears. Chicago Bears draft Caleb signed Saquan draft

0:50:55.640 --> 0:50:58.040
<v Speaker 2>a wide receiver at nine, and now you really or

0:50:58.080 --> 0:51:00.840
<v Speaker 2>maybe Brock Bauers if he's there, now you're really cooking.

0:51:02.320 --> 0:51:06.440
<v Speaker 2>People have attached him to Dallas and Philly. Dallas and

0:51:06.520 --> 0:51:12.719
<v Speaker 2>Philly need to address obvious defensive weaknesses with their cap dollars,

0:51:13.200 --> 0:51:17.160
<v Speaker 2>not go sign an expensive running back. So that's so,

0:51:17.400 --> 0:51:20.560
<v Speaker 2>I would say, team with a quarterback on a rookie

0:51:20.640 --> 0:51:27.120
<v Speaker 2>contract or the other kind of interesting one. They don't

0:51:27.120 --> 0:51:29.000
<v Speaker 2>have the money for it, but I could see him

0:51:29.040 --> 0:51:32.840
<v Speaker 2>doing it. Is he is, almost said Michigan because of Harrball.

0:51:32.880 --> 0:51:35.279
<v Speaker 2>But the Chargers, but they don't have the money. They

0:51:35.280 --> 0:51:37.200
<v Speaker 2>could use him, they don't have the money. All right.

0:51:37.320 --> 0:51:40.959
<v Speaker 3>Next, so we talked about Saquan So let's talk about

0:51:41.000 --> 0:51:44.320
<v Speaker 3>some other free agent running backs. Who've got Drrick Henry,

0:51:44.480 --> 0:51:49.000
<v Speaker 3>Tony Pollard, Austin Eckler, Josh Jacobs, and if the reports

0:51:49.000 --> 0:51:52.520
<v Speaker 3>are true, possibly Joe Mixon. Which free agent running back

0:51:52.520 --> 0:51:53.120
<v Speaker 3>would you sign?

0:51:54.440 --> 0:51:55.400
<v Speaker 2>None of them?

0:51:55.800 --> 0:51:59.040
<v Speaker 3>None of them? No, you know, the Chiefs don't need

0:51:59.080 --> 0:51:59.680
<v Speaker 3>a running back.

0:52:00.480 --> 0:52:03.120
<v Speaker 2>No, I know. But I just wouldn't spend real money

0:52:03.880 --> 0:52:09.440
<v Speaker 2>on veteran running backs unless they're Christian McCaffrey. I just wouldn't. Uh,

0:52:09.480 --> 0:52:13.560
<v Speaker 2>it's just not you can find them in the draft.

0:52:14.560 --> 0:52:18.560
<v Speaker 2>Nick Chubb is amazing the brown he went down. The

0:52:18.600 --> 0:52:21.759
<v Speaker 2>Browns running game was still great. The Ravens lost like

0:52:21.840 --> 0:52:25.319
<v Speaker 2>three running backs. They were they let this running game

0:52:25.360 --> 0:52:28.839
<v Speaker 2>is still great. The Pacheco was a seventh round pick. Like,

0:52:29.120 --> 0:52:31.680
<v Speaker 2>it's not just the Chiefs. So that's just not where

0:52:31.719 --> 0:52:33.440
<v Speaker 2>I would spend my free agent dollars.

0:52:33.480 --> 0:52:37.040
<v Speaker 3>All right, Next, all right, the Oscars are this Sunday.

0:52:37.480 --> 0:52:39.399
<v Speaker 3>I'm not sure if you've had any time to watch

0:52:39.400 --> 0:52:41.600
<v Speaker 3>any of the Best Picture nominees with all the time

0:52:41.600 --> 0:52:46.200
<v Speaker 3>you've been spend spending studying dead capitules. But if you have, again, I.

0:52:46.160 --> 0:52:48.000
<v Speaker 2>Don't have to spend a lot of time studying. It's very

0:52:48.680 --> 0:52:50.560
<v Speaker 2>it's just people choose to be ignorant about it.

0:52:50.560 --> 0:52:53.560
<v Speaker 3>But go ahead, if you have the best movie of

0:52:53.600 --> 0:52:56.799
<v Speaker 3>this year in your opinion, was all right?

0:52:56.920 --> 0:53:00.520
<v Speaker 2>So, first of all, the Oscars going to ten picture

0:53:00.560 --> 0:53:06.640
<v Speaker 2>nominations was a terrible decision. Terrible Have it be five

0:53:06.960 --> 0:53:11.759
<v Speaker 2>when it was five? Effort to make sure I'd seen

0:53:11.800 --> 0:53:15.960
<v Speaker 2>all five. No, it's like, okay, there's five. That's digestible.

0:53:16.360 --> 0:53:22.080
<v Speaker 2>It's ten movies. Who can see ten movies? Unemployed people

0:53:22.120 --> 0:53:26.760
<v Speaker 2>like what? People without kids? I guess people without kids

0:53:26.800 --> 0:53:29.040
<v Speaker 2>can do it. I saw seth Rogen. This might have

0:53:29.080 --> 0:53:32.520
<v Speaker 2>been hold on killing him about fake news?

0:53:32.840 --> 0:53:36.720
<v Speaker 3>No, I don't think. Yeah, it was about him staying

0:53:36.760 --> 0:53:39.920
<v Speaker 3>in smoking weed on Saturdays with his girl or his wife.

0:53:40.400 --> 0:53:42.120
<v Speaker 3>If they had kids, they wouldn't able to do this,

0:53:42.880 --> 0:53:44.520
<v Speaker 3>that whole thing. Yeah, yeah, I think that was a.

0:53:44.560 --> 0:53:48.160
<v Speaker 2>Real Idertand oh yeah, and you also don't like people

0:53:48.239 --> 0:53:50.839
<v Speaker 2>killing him for it because he's describing your dream. I

0:53:50.880 --> 0:53:56.720
<v Speaker 2>get it. I understand, not like living in the Hollywood Hills,

0:53:56.840 --> 0:54:00.640
<v Speaker 2>being rich, having no responsibility, just hanging out, understand it.

0:54:00.680 --> 0:54:03.839
<v Speaker 2>I'm not. I'm not killing them for it either. Uh

0:54:03.920 --> 0:54:06.000
<v Speaker 2>so I that so I do under it's not just

0:54:06.040 --> 0:54:09.560
<v Speaker 2>unemployed people, but people without without either without you, if

0:54:09.560 --> 0:54:11.360
<v Speaker 2>you gotta, if you're gonna be able to cram in

0:54:11.520 --> 0:54:14.880
<v Speaker 2>ten movies, you can't have kids and a job. You

0:54:15.040 --> 0:54:19.880
<v Speaker 2>just can't. It's not possible. So and I love movies.

0:54:20.680 --> 0:54:23.200
<v Speaker 2>I like I You know, that sounds like a weird

0:54:23.239 --> 0:54:27.200
<v Speaker 2>thing to say, but I love great movies, love them

0:54:27.239 --> 0:54:29.960
<v Speaker 2>like I was making an effort when Killers of the

0:54:30.000 --> 0:54:33.480
<v Speaker 2>Flower Moon came out to go back and watch every

0:54:33.560 --> 0:54:40.479
<v Speaker 2>Scorsese movie. I started that project, if you will, four

0:54:40.520 --> 0:54:43.880
<v Speaker 2>months ago, whenever Killers flower Moon came out. I've gotten

0:54:43.920 --> 0:54:48.440
<v Speaker 2>through two. I watched Taxi Driver and I watched Killers

0:54:48.480 --> 0:54:50.040
<v Speaker 2>of Flower Moon. That's it.

0:54:50.080 --> 0:54:51.880
<v Speaker 3>Hey, what do you tell Wait, I'm confused because I

0:54:51.880 --> 0:54:54.719
<v Speaker 3>know about taxi drivers. I'm confused about what you're talking about.

0:54:55.120 --> 0:55:00.480
<v Speaker 2>Like, uh, the director, Oh, just his movies. No, oh, no,

0:55:00.960 --> 0:55:09.160
<v Speaker 2>his movies. Yeah. So Scorsese has done some weird, uncomfortable

0:55:11.040 --> 0:55:13.239
<v Speaker 2>and so he did. But demand say, he's done some

0:55:13.239 --> 0:55:15.319
<v Speaker 2>of the greatest movies ever. And I've seen some of them.

0:55:15.719 --> 0:55:19.480
<v Speaker 2>I mean, he did Good Fellas, he did The Departed,

0:55:20.040 --> 0:55:26.279
<v Speaker 2>he did Raging Bull. Uh, he he did. I mean

0:55:26.280 --> 0:55:28.360
<v Speaker 2>he's done a million. He did Wolf of Wall Street,

0:55:28.440 --> 0:55:31.879
<v Speaker 2>which I've seen, he did Kill his Flower Moon. He's done,

0:55:31.920 --> 0:55:36.400
<v Speaker 2>and I'm I'm leaving. I'm leaving out a million of great,

0:55:36.560 --> 0:55:38.439
<v Speaker 2>you know, great movies. I've seen some, but I wanted

0:55:38.440 --> 0:55:43.440
<v Speaker 2>to see all of them. So the only Oscar movies

0:55:43.480 --> 0:55:50.640
<v Speaker 2>I've seen is Oppenheimer, Barbie and Killers of the Flower Moon.

0:55:52.920 --> 0:55:57.720
<v Speaker 2>I didn't see Killers Flower Moon until the flight back

0:55:57.760 --> 0:56:01.759
<v Speaker 2>from Japan, so I just saw it three days ago.

0:56:02.400 --> 0:56:02.640
<v Speaker 3>Uh.

0:56:03.640 --> 0:56:08.440
<v Speaker 2>That movie is phenomenal and it's a true story and

0:56:08.520 --> 0:56:11.920
<v Speaker 2>it makes you sick about you know. It's another one

0:56:11.920 --> 0:56:17.200
<v Speaker 2>of those pieces of American history that just sucks. But

0:56:17.320 --> 0:56:23.920
<v Speaker 2>it is a phenomenal movie. I Oppenheimer. I saw in

0:56:23.960 --> 0:56:29.120
<v Speaker 2>the theaters and then watched again when it when it

0:56:29.200 --> 0:56:32.240
<v Speaker 2>was on on demand. I love but I like Nolan

0:56:32.320 --> 0:56:39.879
<v Speaker 2>a lot. Nolan no the main character for the movie

0:56:40.200 --> 0:56:46.320
<v Speaker 2>Silly and Chilean Murphy Blinders. Guy Nolan's the guy Nolan Nolan.

0:56:46.640 --> 0:56:54.080
<v Speaker 2>Nolan made inception, which I have time story about that.

0:56:54.600 --> 0:56:55.719
<v Speaker 2>We told it on the air.

0:56:56.560 --> 0:57:00.200
<v Speaker 3>I do. I believe it's possible we've told it, like

0:57:00.560 --> 0:57:02.960
<v Speaker 3>maybe you told me for the first time. I just

0:57:03.000 --> 0:57:05.920
<v Speaker 3>heard it. But yeah, it was.

0:57:05.960 --> 0:57:08.239
<v Speaker 2>Hold on, I got to see what inception came out.

0:57:08.600 --> 0:57:10.320
<v Speaker 2>I gotta see because if I haven't.

0:57:10.120 --> 0:57:14.720
<v Speaker 3>I mean, I was like twelve or thirteen years old.

0:57:13.360 --> 0:57:16.640
<v Speaker 2>All right, So, yeah, so you were you were twelve,

0:57:17.720 --> 0:57:24.320
<v Speaker 2>which so I was twenty five? This is not so

0:57:24.440 --> 0:57:28.440
<v Speaker 2>I in my defense, I was the age Demand is.

0:57:28.560 --> 0:57:31.760
<v Speaker 2>Now think about that? How crazy? Is that?

0:57:31.800 --> 0:57:32.800
<v Speaker 3>Man's wild?

0:57:33.000 --> 0:57:35.960
<v Speaker 2>Isn't that wild to think about it is?

0:57:36.160 --> 0:57:36.280
<v Speaker 3>So?

0:57:37.200 --> 0:57:41.640
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, all right, I'll just tell the story. I don't care.

0:57:42.800 --> 0:57:48.960
<v Speaker 2>Demand's twelve, I'm twenty five. I'm at this point. I've

0:57:49.760 --> 0:57:52.640
<v Speaker 2>been Your mom and I have been together at this

0:57:52.680 --> 0:57:55.040
<v Speaker 2>point for two years, maybe a year and a half.

0:57:55.160 --> 0:57:59.320
<v Speaker 2>I'm not sure. We're not engaged yet. Uh, but we're

0:58:00.080 --> 0:58:02.200
<v Speaker 2>I don't know if we are. I think we had

0:58:02.320 --> 0:58:05.480
<v Speaker 2>just started living together. But yeah, but it doesn't matter

0:58:05.520 --> 0:58:08.200
<v Speaker 2>if not we were. We were all together as a

0:58:08.240 --> 0:58:14.640
<v Speaker 2>family all the time. And I really wanted to see Inception.

0:58:15.320 --> 0:58:18.400
<v Speaker 2>And this was back when I also still occasionally smoked

0:58:18.440 --> 0:58:23.800
<v Speaker 2>wheat and Demanse was with me, and I was like, man,

0:58:24.240 --> 0:58:27.080
<v Speaker 2>I'm not gonna get high and drive to the theater,

0:58:27.920 --> 0:58:30.880
<v Speaker 2>you know, with what am I gonna do? But I

0:58:30.920 --> 0:58:32.960
<v Speaker 2>really want to see this movie. And everyone says, like

0:58:33.000 --> 0:58:35.120
<v Speaker 2>it mess with your brain. I used to smoke wheat.

0:58:36.680 --> 0:58:43.080
<v Speaker 2>So we go to the theater, go in, get our popcorn, whatever,

0:58:43.640 --> 0:58:46.440
<v Speaker 2>sit down. I tell Demanse, I gotta go to the

0:58:46.480 --> 0:58:50.240
<v Speaker 2>bathroom or something. The movie hasn't started yet. I go outside,

0:58:51.600 --> 0:58:55.360
<v Speaker 2>hit it joint a couple times, come back in watch Inception.

0:58:55.920 --> 0:59:02.240
<v Speaker 2>My mind is blown. I loved it. Is visibly bored

0:59:02.280 --> 0:59:05.200
<v Speaker 2>and annoyed and we walk out of there and I'm like,

0:59:05.240 --> 0:59:07.880
<v Speaker 2>what did you think? He was like, that was one

0:59:07.880 --> 0:59:11.000
<v Speaker 2>of the dumbest movies I've ever seen. Can't believe you

0:59:11.080 --> 0:59:12.760
<v Speaker 2>took me to it? And I was like, I thought

0:59:12.800 --> 0:59:20.600
<v Speaker 2>it was great. Man, Well you're twelve years old, have

0:59:20.720 --> 0:59:22.400
<v Speaker 2>you watched it again as an adult.

0:59:22.960 --> 0:59:25.920
<v Speaker 3>I haven't, I really think so. I think that I

0:59:25.960 --> 0:59:27.960
<v Speaker 3>still don't like it, and that was the last time

0:59:28.000 --> 0:59:29.120
<v Speaker 3>I saw it.

0:59:29.400 --> 0:59:34.560
<v Speaker 2>But but now you might like it more well whatever

0:59:34.640 --> 0:59:38.000
<v Speaker 2>mind frame, but certainly now being able to understand it.

0:59:39.440 --> 0:59:44.680
<v Speaker 2>But I didn't tell Demanse that until recently, that that

0:59:44.680 --> 0:59:46.000
<v Speaker 2>that little piece of it.

0:59:46.760 --> 0:59:51.000
<v Speaker 3>But yeah, so Whipenheimer.

0:59:52.360 --> 0:59:56.320
<v Speaker 2>But regardless, So I'm not qualified to give an answer

0:59:56.320 --> 0:59:59.480
<v Speaker 2>to this question. Of those three, I think Killers of

0:59:59.520 --> 1:00:02.320
<v Speaker 2>the Flower Ohon was my favorite. I liked Barbie a lot.

1:00:02.520 --> 1:00:04.960
<v Speaker 2>I thought Barbie was really well done and really smart,

1:00:06.400 --> 1:00:11.520
<v Speaker 2>and I watched that with Deanna at the house. But

1:00:11.640 --> 1:00:15.920
<v Speaker 2>I don't, I don't know. I'd like to say people

1:00:15.960 --> 1:00:21.400
<v Speaker 2>love Mastro, the Bradley Cooper movie, and there's a bunch

1:00:21.400 --> 1:00:23.320
<v Speaker 2>of these movies people love. But ten's too much. I'm

1:00:23.360 --> 1:00:25.040
<v Speaker 2>not gonna be able to watch all ten, but there

1:00:25.080 --> 1:00:27.280
<v Speaker 2>were five, I'd be able to watch it, all right.

1:00:27.320 --> 1:00:29.600
<v Speaker 2>I'm kind of having a little regret about telling that

1:00:29.640 --> 1:00:31.439
<v Speaker 2>story on the air. I'm not gonna lie quick break

1:00:31.480 --> 1:00:32.280
<v Speaker 2>right back, what's right?

1:00:38.200 --> 1:00:38.480
<v Speaker 3>All right?

1:00:38.520 --> 1:00:41.560
<v Speaker 2>I anticipated at this pod being a fast one because

1:00:41.640 --> 1:00:43.560
<v Speaker 2>I thought I was gonna be exhausted instead of this

1:00:43.600 --> 1:00:47.600
<v Speaker 2>POD's been outstanding and long, even by our standards. But

1:00:47.680 --> 1:00:49.720
<v Speaker 2>let's get to some listener questions before I get to work.

1:00:49.760 --> 1:00:52.000
<v Speaker 3>Go ahead to Mosey. All right, So there's some speculation

1:00:52.080 --> 1:00:54.080
<v Speaker 3>that you made a Bernard to ask yourself this question.

1:00:54.560 --> 1:00:58.240
<v Speaker 3>Curtis Matthews said, question for Nick. When it's all said

1:00:58.280 --> 1:01:01.760
<v Speaker 3>and done, for both athletes and their respective sport, who

1:01:01.800 --> 1:01:04.840
<v Speaker 3>will be the bigger goat Patrick Mahomes in the NFL

1:01:04.960 --> 1:01:07.840
<v Speaker 3>or Lebron James in the NBA.

1:01:08.200 --> 1:01:14.640
<v Speaker 2>I think it's actually more likely to be Mahomes because

1:01:15.920 --> 1:01:21.800
<v Speaker 2>I don't think there is What has worked against Lebron

1:01:23.120 --> 1:01:31.280
<v Speaker 2>is vocal contingents that were against him shortly after he

1:01:31.400 --> 1:01:35.320
<v Speaker 2>entered the league in the Kobe Bryant diehards and the

1:01:35.320 --> 1:01:39.000
<v Speaker 2>Michael Jordan diehards. They identified him as a threat. He

1:01:39.120 --> 1:01:43.520
<v Speaker 2>also had some public ape, very public failure, and you

1:01:43.560 --> 1:01:45.680
<v Speaker 2>know what I mean, and it was they were so entrenched.

1:01:46.280 --> 1:01:52.320
<v Speaker 2>I don't think many people hate Mahomes. Hey, you starting

1:01:52.360 --> 1:01:55.240
<v Speaker 2>to see some of it bubble up, some of it,

1:01:55.480 --> 1:01:57.560
<v Speaker 2>but there's too many.

1:01:57.880 --> 1:02:01.000
<v Speaker 3>Go ahead, there's a I noticed they're already doing it,

1:02:01.040 --> 1:02:03.000
<v Speaker 3>but they show they're showing a bunch of clips of

1:02:03.040 --> 1:02:06.400
<v Speaker 3>Brady getting the crap tackled out of them. They're saying

1:02:06.400 --> 1:02:09.000
<v Speaker 3>Mahomes didn't have to play in this era that's already started.

1:02:09.200 --> 1:02:12.640
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, oh no, there'll be some of it. But the

1:02:12.760 --> 1:02:16.640
<v Speaker 2>other thing that I think is going to I think

1:02:16.800 --> 1:02:23.880
<v Speaker 2>Mahomes is going to catch Brady in the winning I do,

1:02:24.600 --> 1:02:29.520
<v Speaker 2>and the numbers are going to be the one of

1:02:29.560 --> 1:02:32.880
<v Speaker 2>the things Jordan has, you know, Jordan, I understand Lebron

1:02:32.920 --> 1:02:35.120
<v Speaker 2>caught him in all the numbers, but in the accolades,

1:02:35.200 --> 1:02:39.560
<v Speaker 2>Jordan does have five MVPs. Lebron's four. Brady and I

1:02:39.640 --> 1:02:44.000
<v Speaker 2>put this in quotes, only only won three league MVPs.

1:02:44.440 --> 1:02:47.160
<v Speaker 2>How many do you think Mahomes gonna end with five?

1:02:47.800 --> 1:02:50.040
<v Speaker 2>What Peyton has five? You know what I mean? And

1:02:50.080 --> 1:02:54.120
<v Speaker 2>so it's just so there are I think that I

1:02:54.560 --> 1:03:01.480
<v Speaker 2>also think there are fewer people. Who's the other thing

1:03:01.600 --> 1:03:07.920
<v Speaker 2>that works against Brady is Brady unlike these other guys

1:03:08.040 --> 1:03:15.400
<v Speaker 2>that we talk about as goats, whether it be Lebron, Michael, Kareem, Gretzky,

1:03:16.040 --> 1:03:20.200
<v Speaker 2>you know, Babe, Ruth Babyoo's hard as one hundred years ago.

1:03:20.400 --> 1:03:27.880
<v Speaker 2>But all of those guys, no one debated during the

1:03:27.920 --> 1:03:30.840
<v Speaker 2>first you know, ten years of their career, were they

1:03:30.920 --> 1:03:34.840
<v Speaker 2>the best player currently playing. It's like, oh no, this

1:03:34.920 --> 1:03:37.760
<v Speaker 2>is Jordan's league, this is Lebron's league, this is Kareem's league.

1:03:37.800 --> 1:03:43.240
<v Speaker 2>Those things. Brady, the Brady Manning and then Brady Rogers

1:03:43.240 --> 1:03:46.800
<v Speaker 2>thing was a real debate for the first fifteen years

1:03:46.800 --> 1:03:50.600
<v Speaker 2>of Brady's career, and then the last seven years Brady

1:03:50.720 --> 1:03:54.919
<v Speaker 2>separated from everybody. So for all those reasons, I don't

1:03:54.920 --> 1:03:59.720
<v Speaker 2>think Brady's gonna have the stickiness of the goat stuff

1:04:00.200 --> 1:04:04.120
<v Speaker 2>that Jordan has had, So I think it's probably Mahomes

1:04:04.160 --> 1:04:04.440
<v Speaker 2>all right.

1:04:04.520 --> 1:04:08.560
<v Speaker 3>Next, Ethan Williams, what do you recommend? What do you

1:04:08.600 --> 1:04:12.120
<v Speaker 3>recommend doing slash eating in Tokyo?

1:04:12.240 --> 1:04:14.560
<v Speaker 2>All right, Well, listen, Tokyo is a bigger city than

1:04:14.600 --> 1:04:16.840
<v Speaker 2>New York City. So what to do is it's too

1:04:16.960 --> 1:04:21.040
<v Speaker 2>much to list. If you're into history, travel around Japan

1:04:21.200 --> 1:04:24.360
<v Speaker 2>and go see the different shrines in the different castles.

1:04:24.840 --> 1:04:28.360
<v Speaker 2>The bullet train is unbelievable. Things that take a six

1:04:28.400 --> 1:04:31.680
<v Speaker 2>hour drive are a less than three hour train ride.

1:04:32.320 --> 1:04:36.480
<v Speaker 2>It's affordable. Their subway system and train system is immaculate,

1:04:36.840 --> 1:04:41.040
<v Speaker 2>so that's the best way to move. As far as eating,

1:04:41.280 --> 1:04:46.480
<v Speaker 2>Here's what I will say about the food. Obviously, the

1:04:46.520 --> 1:04:50.600
<v Speaker 2>sushi is what people are gonna be excited about. I

1:04:54.120 --> 1:05:00.240
<v Speaker 2>the just average sushi in Japan that I ate, just

1:05:00.280 --> 1:05:02.000
<v Speaker 2>like you don't have to go to like the best

1:05:02.040 --> 1:05:06.040
<v Speaker 2>place in the just the regular sushi spot there is

1:05:06.120 --> 1:05:14.000
<v Speaker 2>going to be better than any sushi place anywhere in

1:05:14.080 --> 1:05:18.840
<v Speaker 2>America except for the very very best sushi you can

1:05:18.840 --> 1:05:24.160
<v Speaker 2>get in LA or New York. So like if you now,

1:05:24.440 --> 1:05:27.640
<v Speaker 2>sushi is a weird thing because at the very top

1:05:27.720 --> 1:05:29.960
<v Speaker 2>of the top, everyone's getting the same fish, you know

1:05:30.000 --> 1:05:32.400
<v Speaker 2>what I mean, And there's not a lot of preparation.

1:05:32.640 --> 1:05:35.920
<v Speaker 2>So the very I'm not gonna the very best sushi

1:05:35.960 --> 1:05:39.320
<v Speaker 2>spots here in New York are on par in my opinion,

1:05:39.320 --> 1:05:41.720
<v Speaker 2>with the best spots that I ate at in Tokyo.

1:05:41.800 --> 1:05:47.640
<v Speaker 2>They are, They're on par. But the difference is almost

1:05:47.720 --> 1:05:50.480
<v Speaker 2>any other city in the country other than LA, their

1:05:50.680 --> 1:05:55.120
<v Speaker 2>best sushi spot would be the worst place by far

1:05:55.280 --> 1:05:58.440
<v Speaker 2>that I ate while I was over there. But my

1:05:58.560 --> 1:06:02.280
<v Speaker 2>favorite food stuff was the Kobe Steak. I had Kobe's

1:06:02.280 --> 1:06:05.920
<v Speaker 2>Steak in Kobe and but the Kobe Steak also in

1:06:05.920 --> 1:06:10.920
<v Speaker 2>Osaka or anywhere in Japan. It's expensive, uh, but it's

1:06:10.960 --> 1:06:13.560
<v Speaker 2>the best food I've ever had in my life that

1:06:13.560 --> 1:06:16.360
<v Speaker 2>that And now listen, I eat some of that sometimes.

1:06:16.400 --> 1:06:18.919
<v Speaker 2>I there's some places in New York you can get that.

1:06:19.200 --> 1:06:22.920
<v Speaker 2>It's it's exorbitant. I mean, it's an absurd amount of

1:06:22.920 --> 1:06:25.440
<v Speaker 2>money in New York spent on food. In Tokyo it's

1:06:25.480 --> 1:06:27.040
<v Speaker 2>a little cheaper. It's still a lot of money spent

1:06:27.080 --> 1:06:28.640
<v Speaker 2>on food. But that's what I like to spend my

1:06:28.680 --> 1:06:31.160
<v Speaker 2>money on, is good food. But demons, did I did

1:06:31.160 --> 1:06:35.760
<v Speaker 2>the Kobe steak? At one of these places, they give

1:06:35.800 --> 1:06:39.080
<v Speaker 2>you a certificate of authenticity for the cow that has

1:06:39.120 --> 1:06:42.080
<v Speaker 2>both of the cow's parents, all four of his grandparents,

1:06:42.320 --> 1:06:46.080
<v Speaker 2>and the cow's nose print. Buddy, the cow's nose print

1:06:46.480 --> 1:06:50.120
<v Speaker 2>on the piece of paper, and it's signed like it's.

1:06:50.080 --> 1:06:52.040
<v Speaker 3>Like this buddy.

1:06:53.240 --> 1:06:56.600
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, Well, because the the what makes Kobe beef Kobe

1:06:56.600 --> 1:07:00.960
<v Speaker 2>beef is the cows get massaged, they feed beef your chamber,

1:07:01.200 --> 1:07:03.680
<v Speaker 2>you know what I mean. It's a whole thing, and

1:07:03.720 --> 1:07:05.280
<v Speaker 2>then you get slaughtered.

1:07:04.880 --> 1:07:07.120
<v Speaker 3>And you eat the certificate.

1:07:08.360 --> 1:07:10.840
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, it was pretty great. Oh. The other thing is

1:07:10.880 --> 1:07:16.640
<v Speaker 2>the ramen. Ramen is phenomenal, Like yeah, here you go,

1:07:17.800 --> 1:07:21.360
<v Speaker 2>all right, the let's go to jellybean.

1:07:22.560 --> 1:07:25.880
<v Speaker 3>Uh, mister Kai Jellybean said, Nick, how was Japan anything

1:07:25.880 --> 1:07:28.880
<v Speaker 3>you noticed culturally that was different from the US? And

1:07:28.880 --> 1:07:30.560
<v Speaker 3>I went in October and I loved it.

1:07:32.240 --> 1:07:35.360
<v Speaker 2>Well, what everyone's gonna say is that there's just no litter.

1:07:36.120 --> 1:07:39.680
<v Speaker 2>It's just no litter. It's just not a thing. And

1:07:39.720 --> 1:07:43.960
<v Speaker 2>there's also what's crazy is there's no trash cans on

1:07:44.000 --> 1:07:48.640
<v Speaker 2>the street. You're they're not there. And so you might

1:07:48.680 --> 1:07:50.120
<v Speaker 2>be like, why is there no litter? And it's the

1:07:50.160 --> 1:07:52.400
<v Speaker 2>answer is and this is what I realized.

1:07:52.760 --> 1:07:53.440
<v Speaker 3>People don't eat.

1:07:53.440 --> 1:07:58.640
<v Speaker 2>You're not allowed. No, no, you're not allowed. And in fact,

1:07:58.760 --> 1:08:01.280
<v Speaker 2>in like the touristy area is where they're selling like

1:08:01.360 --> 1:08:05.600
<v Speaker 2>street food, they have little enclaves where you have to

1:08:05.640 --> 1:08:08.800
<v Speaker 2>eat it. Like even at like a little like Kiosk,

1:08:08.840 --> 1:08:10.720
<v Speaker 2>It's like you can buy food from here, you have

1:08:10.760 --> 1:08:13.680
<v Speaker 2>to eat it right here because it's just not part

1:08:13.680 --> 1:08:16.960
<v Speaker 2>of the culture, right, it's just not part of the

1:08:16.960 --> 1:08:18.599
<v Speaker 2>culture to eat while you're moving.

1:08:19.320 --> 1:08:19.439
<v Speaker 1>Uh.

1:08:19.760 --> 1:08:23.000
<v Speaker 2>A lot of the streets were no smoking and so

1:08:23.160 --> 1:08:26.360
<v Speaker 2>like there were just you would just go. But the

1:08:26.479 --> 1:08:31.839
<v Speaker 2>that's what everyone notices, and it is it is just different.

1:08:32.120 --> 1:08:35.120
<v Speaker 2>But the thing that I noticed that I could not

1:08:35.439 --> 1:08:41.480
<v Speaker 2>believe when I say to mons, there is no jaywalking.

1:08:42.520 --> 1:08:47.880
<v Speaker 2>I mean, there is no jaywalking. It is it is

1:08:48.080 --> 1:08:56.320
<v Speaker 2>just the it is, yes, like there you can be

1:08:56.400 --> 1:09:00.599
<v Speaker 2>at an intersection, it can be a side street, there

1:09:00.600 --> 1:09:06.120
<v Speaker 2>gonna be no cars anywhere. Everyone waits and the light

1:09:06.200 --> 1:09:09.280
<v Speaker 2>changes and everyone goes. It's just so there are just

1:09:09.439 --> 1:09:13.880
<v Speaker 2>certain things. It's very it's just unique. And so I'm

1:09:13.920 --> 1:09:18.360
<v Speaker 2>not the So those are the two things that jumped

1:09:18.360 --> 1:09:23.400
<v Speaker 2>out to me more than anything. Was the the the

1:09:23.840 --> 1:09:28.240
<v Speaker 2>just how different that was. Yeah, it's just a real

1:09:28.400 --> 1:09:32.120
<v Speaker 2>like a real yeah, it's just a real cultural difference.

1:09:34.120 --> 1:09:41.120
<v Speaker 2>And yeah, the but the it was stunning that the

1:09:41.200 --> 1:09:44.280
<v Speaker 2>and I know, the no jaywalking things sounds silly, but

1:09:44.560 --> 1:09:47.760
<v Speaker 2>I mean there was at one point we'd been there

1:09:47.800 --> 1:09:51.600
<v Speaker 2>like five days, and your mom and I had I

1:09:51.600 --> 1:09:54.160
<v Speaker 2>had gotten a little turned around on Google Maps trying

1:09:54.160 --> 1:09:57.920
<v Speaker 2>to walk to a subway station, and then I realized,

1:09:57.920 --> 1:10:00.360
<v Speaker 2>I'm like, oh gosh, it's right there, Like I can

1:10:00.439 --> 1:10:04.479
<v Speaker 2>see it, it's right there. And the but we were

1:10:04.520 --> 1:10:07.680
<v Speaker 2>dead in the middle of like it was probably a

1:10:07.720 --> 1:10:10.800
<v Speaker 2>three minute walk in either direction to where the crosswalk

1:10:10.840 --> 1:10:12.880
<v Speaker 2>would be in the subway stations right across from me.

1:10:13.720 --> 1:10:15.240
<v Speaker 2>And I said to your mom I was like, are

1:10:15.240 --> 1:10:15.960
<v Speaker 2>we gonna do this?

1:10:16.960 --> 1:10:17.680
<v Speaker 3>She's like, what do you mean?

1:10:17.720 --> 1:10:20.360
<v Speaker 2>I'm like, I'm like, I have real guilt right now,

1:10:20.400 --> 1:10:22.120
<v Speaker 2>Like I feel like I'm being I was like, and

1:10:22.160 --> 1:10:24.080
<v Speaker 2>I did it, of course because I'm an ugly American.

1:10:24.080 --> 1:10:27.040
<v Speaker 2>But I'm like, let's just go go go go the street.

1:10:28.439 --> 1:10:33.240
<v Speaker 2>But I but I it took me five days. No,

1:10:33.360 --> 1:10:37.120
<v Speaker 2>I don't know. But regardless, My point is, it only

1:10:37.160 --> 1:10:39.599
<v Speaker 2>took five days for me to actually like think twice

1:10:39.600 --> 1:10:42.200
<v Speaker 2>about it now, not enough to like inconvenience myself to

1:10:42.240 --> 1:10:45.160
<v Speaker 2>where I'm gonna walk it extra three minutes. No, but

1:10:45.560 --> 1:10:49.280
<v Speaker 2>it's still it was. So that was that was something

1:10:49.360 --> 1:10:54.599
<v Speaker 2>to me. All right, Uh, the go ahead, let's read

1:10:54.640 --> 1:10:56.680
<v Speaker 2>William Jackson's and then we can move on.

1:10:57.600 --> 1:11:01.439
<v Speaker 3>William Jackson suggests nick walking of grass barefoot to get

1:11:01.479 --> 1:11:02.639
<v Speaker 3>back to your sleep rhythm.

1:11:04.120 --> 1:11:06.559
<v Speaker 2>I gotta look that up. If that's real. That feels

1:11:06.640 --> 1:11:09.559
<v Speaker 2>really close to that very annoying thing people now say

1:11:09.600 --> 1:11:11.360
<v Speaker 2>on the internet all the time, which is tell people

1:11:11.360 --> 1:11:15.160
<v Speaker 2>to touch grass and they're like, you're a go touch grass.

1:11:15.160 --> 1:11:16.920
<v Speaker 2>I don't know when that became a thing people said

1:11:16.920 --> 1:11:19.920
<v Speaker 2>to people, but now everybody says it. I don't totally follow.

1:11:20.640 --> 1:11:24.160
<v Speaker 2>You don't totally follow, I mean I follow. I just

1:11:24.160 --> 1:11:28.160
<v Speaker 2>don't know how it became like the the go to phrase.

1:11:28.280 --> 1:11:31.320
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, because everybody's in the house. But I do think

1:11:31.360 --> 1:11:33.439
<v Speaker 3>that you should trust William Jackson. I think he's given

1:11:33.479 --> 1:11:34.080
<v Speaker 3>you good intel.

1:11:35.560 --> 1:11:39.960
