1 00:00:01,080 --> 00:00:03,800 Speaker 1: You're listening to Fox Sports Radio Radio. 2 00:00:04,120 --> 00:00:09,640 Speaker 2: Welcome man, everybody, Fox Sports Radio, Fox Sports Saturday Er Torris, 3 00:00:09,720 --> 00:00:13,440 Speaker 2: Jason Martin. We are broadcasting live from the Fox Sports 4 00:00:13,600 --> 00:00:18,160 Speaker 2: Radio studios. I am back from a quick getaway, although 5 00:00:18,160 --> 00:00:21,079 Speaker 2: I'm actually out next week. That's another conversation. Nothing bad, 6 00:00:21,600 --> 00:00:25,640 Speaker 2: but as we do every single time, j mart When 7 00:00:25,680 --> 00:00:29,760 Speaker 2: I am out, how was life? I think Arnie Spanier 8 00:00:29,920 --> 00:00:32,640 Speaker 2: was in. I'm actually in with Arnie tomorrow. But how 9 00:00:32,680 --> 00:00:35,440 Speaker 2: did how did it go with Arnie Spanner yesterday? 10 00:00:35,560 --> 00:00:38,320 Speaker 1: Man? You know what I actually just thought it was? 11 00:00:38,920 --> 00:00:40,920 Speaker 1: It was It was a pretty fun three hours. I 12 00:00:40,920 --> 00:00:44,280 Speaker 1: don't really have that much to go back on and say, like, 13 00:00:44,320 --> 00:00:47,600 Speaker 1: I don't really remember having too many giant disagreements last 14 00:00:47,600 --> 00:00:54,000 Speaker 1: week with Arnie on the on the Arnie scale, this 15 00:00:54,040 --> 00:00:58,840 Speaker 1: one was uneventful. Like this, if like one end is 16 00:00:58,960 --> 00:01:03,200 Speaker 1: Dennis Rodman, sure, and the other end is like, I 17 00:01:03,200 --> 00:01:06,840 Speaker 1: don't know, Joe Dumars. If we're just looking at the pistons, 18 00:01:07,200 --> 00:01:09,640 Speaker 1: this was much close to the Dumars side than the 19 00:01:09,720 --> 00:01:11,960 Speaker 1: Rodman side. There have been the times when the crazy 20 00:01:11,959 --> 00:01:14,520 Speaker 1: hair has been there and putting on a dress and 21 00:01:14,560 --> 00:01:17,280 Speaker 1: all that kind of stuff, but this one was rather 22 00:01:17,480 --> 00:01:20,120 Speaker 1: tame and a pretty easy three hours with Arnie. 23 00:01:20,200 --> 00:01:22,880 Speaker 2: I was going to say, it's uh, Chicago bulls Dennis 24 00:01:22,959 --> 00:01:27,000 Speaker 2: Robin versus Dennis Robin. Yeah, I got you, Okay, all right, 25 00:01:27,040 --> 00:01:30,360 Speaker 2: Well I'm actually in with Arnie tomorrow. So he was 26 00:01:30,400 --> 00:01:33,520 Speaker 2: already barraging me with texts throughout the day. 27 00:01:33,640 --> 00:01:35,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, and don't big along does it? 28 00:01:35,080 --> 00:01:35,240 Speaker 3: Man? 29 00:01:35,319 --> 00:01:37,640 Speaker 1: Like two three days before, he's already sending you like 30 00:01:37,760 --> 00:01:42,640 Speaker 1: multiple notebook like legal pad pages with all these topics 31 00:01:42,640 --> 00:01:45,399 Speaker 1: and stuff that's like all over the place, which, look, 32 00:01:45,920 --> 00:01:48,520 Speaker 1: it's better than the opposite. It's better than someone not 33 00:01:48,600 --> 00:01:52,040 Speaker 1: communicating with you at all and leaving it completely blank. 34 00:01:52,120 --> 00:01:55,440 Speaker 1: Like you're never going to be like berefed of topics 35 00:01:55,920 --> 00:01:59,760 Speaker 1: when you're with Arnie because he is consistently communicating and 36 00:02:00,000 --> 00:02:02,800 Speaker 1: appreciate that. That's That's definitely an old school mentality, I 37 00:02:02,840 --> 00:02:05,280 Speaker 1: think in a lot of ways to like just sit 38 00:02:05,360 --> 00:02:07,560 Speaker 1: there and like everything that comes to your mind. You 39 00:02:07,680 --> 00:02:09,560 Speaker 1: end up sending it, but it does send you like 40 00:02:09,680 --> 00:02:11,640 Speaker 1: fifteen links, and then you have to go and be 41 00:02:11,680 --> 00:02:14,960 Speaker 1: like is this credible? No, just find this on the 42 00:02:15,040 --> 00:02:16,320 Speaker 1: dark webs somewhere. 43 00:02:16,440 --> 00:02:19,600 Speaker 2: I've gotten plenty of those. Yeah, we'll get into a 44 00:02:19,639 --> 00:02:21,880 Speaker 2: story that hypothetically might be one of those in a 45 00:02:21,880 --> 00:02:24,640 Speaker 2: little bit. By the way, you obviously filled in for 46 00:02:24,760 --> 00:02:26,959 Speaker 2: four hours last night for Chris Plank, so I hope 47 00:02:26,960 --> 00:02:30,960 Speaker 2: it went well for those who listened last night into 48 00:02:31,000 --> 00:02:33,160 Speaker 2: the morning. I'm sure we're gonna cover a lot of 49 00:02:33,200 --> 00:02:35,919 Speaker 2: the same ground. But let's get into let's get into 50 00:02:36,320 --> 00:02:39,240 Speaker 2: busy week in sports, and frankly, let's get into in 51 00:02:39,240 --> 00:02:41,600 Speaker 2: my opinion, I guess it's the I mean, it has 52 00:02:41,600 --> 00:02:44,080 Speaker 2: to be the biggest story. NBA Finals finished last Sunday. 53 00:02:44,120 --> 00:02:47,440 Speaker 2: We'll do kind of our reset of how things ended 54 00:02:47,480 --> 00:02:50,520 Speaker 2: with Indian Okase here and probably about an hour from now, 55 00:02:51,480 --> 00:02:55,799 Speaker 2: let's talk NBA Draft. To the surprise of absolutely no one, 56 00:02:56,200 --> 00:02:58,919 Speaker 2: Cooper Flag went number one overall. Don't think that's a shock, 57 00:03:00,120 --> 00:03:03,800 Speaker 2: you know, since the moment this draft kind of took shape, 58 00:03:03,800 --> 00:03:06,000 Speaker 2: we knew he was going number one. Once the lottery happened, 59 00:03:06,000 --> 00:03:09,520 Speaker 2: we knew he was going to Dallas. But with it, 60 00:03:09,720 --> 00:03:12,720 Speaker 2: you know, first of all, any any thoughts on Cooper Flag, 61 00:03:12,760 --> 00:03:15,560 Speaker 2: et cetera. But with it, and I don't know if 62 00:03:15,560 --> 00:03:17,760 Speaker 2: this is just the culture that we live in all that, 63 00:03:17,919 --> 00:03:21,359 Speaker 2: but it has now immediately defaulted into well, I mean, 64 00:03:21,720 --> 00:03:25,880 Speaker 2: is Dallas are they a contender in the West next year? Anyway, 65 00:03:26,320 --> 00:03:28,600 Speaker 2: we're gonna we got three hours skin into all of it, 66 00:03:28,680 --> 00:03:31,680 Speaker 2: but your take Cooper Flag going number one. But then, 67 00:03:31,760 --> 00:03:34,279 Speaker 2: of course the discourse that has since followed. 68 00:03:34,520 --> 00:03:39,120 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, certainly he was going to go number one. 69 00:03:39,360 --> 00:03:41,720 Speaker 1: We already knew that whoever won the lottery was winning 70 00:03:41,760 --> 00:03:44,320 Speaker 1: the rights to draft Cooper Flag, and there have been 71 00:03:44,320 --> 00:03:46,560 Speaker 1: some years like that. This is probably you would you 72 00:03:46,600 --> 00:03:49,400 Speaker 1: would probably agree with this. I imagine this is the like 73 00:03:49,560 --> 00:03:52,960 Speaker 1: most obvious no brainer in the most hype prospects since Zion. 74 00:03:53,920 --> 00:03:56,800 Speaker 2: He at least, yeah, he's absolutely the most hyped prospect. 75 00:03:56,880 --> 00:03:59,320 Speaker 2: I think what kind of made it even more boring, 76 00:03:59,360 --> 00:04:02,280 Speaker 2: to be honest with, is that it was very obvious, 77 00:04:02,440 --> 00:04:06,400 Speaker 2: very early on that san Antonio was going Dylan Harper 78 00:04:06,520 --> 00:04:09,240 Speaker 2: number two. And I'm not gonna bore people with too 79 00:04:09,280 --> 00:04:12,080 Speaker 2: much of this, but I don't even think Dylan Harper 80 00:04:12,160 --> 00:04:14,240 Speaker 2: is that good. And then once you get past him, 81 00:04:14,280 --> 00:04:16,960 Speaker 2: it's like, okay, VJ Edgecom you're hoping is gonna be, 82 00:04:17,080 --> 00:04:19,280 Speaker 2: you know, your fourth best guy on a Philly team. 83 00:04:19,360 --> 00:04:25,040 Speaker 2: So it was a pretty, to me, just relatively uninteresting 84 00:04:25,120 --> 00:04:27,560 Speaker 2: draft we're gonna get into some of it throughout the night, 85 00:04:27,680 --> 00:04:30,960 Speaker 2: and basically you know some of the coverage of it, 86 00:04:31,000 --> 00:04:34,160 Speaker 2: but in terms of the players and even the personality 87 00:04:34,200 --> 00:04:36,880 Speaker 2: of Cooper Flag, there's just not a lot of meat 88 00:04:36,920 --> 00:04:38,280 Speaker 2: on this bon So I didn't mean to go along 89 00:04:38,320 --> 00:04:40,360 Speaker 2: on that answer, but yes, I would say that that, Yes, 90 00:04:40,480 --> 00:04:43,359 Speaker 2: pretty much everything is as you exactly as you said. 91 00:04:43,560 --> 00:04:45,080 Speaker 1: Yeah, So, I mean the two guys that went and 92 00:04:45,160 --> 00:04:47,600 Speaker 1: was Zion and John Moran, And I do think a 93 00:04:47,640 --> 00:04:49,719 Speaker 1: lot of people saw a bigtime seeing and Joab Moran. 94 00:04:49,800 --> 00:04:51,680 Speaker 1: To your point, I don't think Harper is being viewed 95 00:04:51,680 --> 00:04:53,560 Speaker 1: in that way, but maybe he fits perfectly in the 96 00:04:53,560 --> 00:04:57,480 Speaker 1: San Antonio system and so uh he'll end up actually 97 00:04:57,560 --> 00:05:00,200 Speaker 1: hitting what his seiling is as opposed to be in 98 00:05:00,240 --> 00:05:04,800 Speaker 1: a bad organization. But Flag going one, I mean, it's 99 00:05:04,839 --> 00:05:06,960 Speaker 1: exactly what you would want if you're Dallas. It's gonna 100 00:05:06,960 --> 00:05:08,920 Speaker 1: put them, it's gonna make them a different kind of 101 00:05:08,960 --> 00:05:12,280 Speaker 1: basketball team. Because I just you can correct me if 102 00:05:12,279 --> 00:05:14,279 Speaker 1: I'm wrong, because obviously you're a lot closer in the 103 00:05:14,320 --> 00:05:17,440 Speaker 1: basketball scene, especially as guys are going from high school 104 00:05:17,440 --> 00:05:20,040 Speaker 1: into college and covering that world than I am. You're 105 00:05:20,040 --> 00:05:24,200 Speaker 1: closer to it Cooper. Flag's not Luca. He's not gonna 106 00:05:24,200 --> 00:05:25,880 Speaker 1: go out there and give you forty. I don't think. 107 00:05:25,920 --> 00:05:28,040 Speaker 1: I don't think that's the kind of player he is. 108 00:05:28,080 --> 00:05:30,159 Speaker 1: He's more well rounded than that. He's gonna play on 109 00:05:30,200 --> 00:05:32,000 Speaker 1: both sides of the ball. He's gonna play hard, he 110 00:05:32,040 --> 00:05:35,679 Speaker 1: does most things well. But I don't think he's gonna 111 00:05:35,680 --> 00:05:38,360 Speaker 1: be Kevin Durant when it comes to scoring the basketball. 112 00:05:38,480 --> 00:05:41,360 Speaker 1: He's just a different player as such that might be 113 00:05:41,360 --> 00:05:45,640 Speaker 1: better for your team overall than somebody that's more limited 114 00:05:45,760 --> 00:05:48,200 Speaker 1: or more one note, But tell me if I'm wrong 115 00:05:48,240 --> 00:05:49,560 Speaker 1: on that. Do you think he's going to be a 116 00:05:49,560 --> 00:05:52,520 Speaker 1: prolific scorer. I think he's gonna be efficient, but I 117 00:05:52,520 --> 00:05:54,599 Speaker 1: don't think that's gonna be kind of the main crux 118 00:05:54,680 --> 00:05:55,200 Speaker 1: of his game. 119 00:05:55,720 --> 00:05:57,960 Speaker 2: Yeah. No, So I agree hundred percent, and I'll be 120 00:05:58,040 --> 00:05:59,479 Speaker 2: quick so I can get back to you on this. 121 00:05:59,640 --> 00:06:03,240 Speaker 2: But no, he and I think that's what makes him 122 00:06:03,279 --> 00:06:05,320 Speaker 2: kind of a unique prospect. Is I think when you 123 00:06:05,400 --> 00:06:08,840 Speaker 2: think no doubt about it, number one was the number 124 00:06:08,880 --> 00:06:11,599 Speaker 2: one player coming into the year, led Duke to a 125 00:06:11,640 --> 00:06:14,840 Speaker 2: Final Four, Like you immediately default to, well, he must 126 00:06:14,920 --> 00:06:18,600 Speaker 2: average twenty three a game and just be this offensive juggernaut, 127 00:06:18,600 --> 00:06:20,520 Speaker 2: you know, almost like maybe like Apollo ban Caro was 128 00:06:20,560 --> 00:06:22,960 Speaker 2: two or three years ago whatever, and that's not really 129 00:06:22,960 --> 00:06:25,159 Speaker 2: Cooper Flag. I mean, he had games where he got thirty, 130 00:06:25,160 --> 00:06:27,880 Speaker 2: he had games where he got forty. But he is 131 00:06:28,120 --> 00:06:32,040 Speaker 2: a player that is. First of all, he's very good defensive. 132 00:06:32,040 --> 00:06:35,320 Speaker 2: He's a very good wing defender. You know, he's a 133 00:06:35,320 --> 00:06:39,200 Speaker 2: good help side defender. Things like that. He makes others better. 134 00:06:39,240 --> 00:06:41,000 Speaker 2: I mean, the guy averaged like five and a half 135 00:06:41,040 --> 00:06:43,839 Speaker 2: assists as a as a six nine ford On On 136 00:06:43,920 --> 00:06:47,599 Speaker 2: Duke this past year. So what makes him so good 137 00:06:48,320 --> 00:06:50,880 Speaker 2: is that he really is a complete prospect. I'll be 138 00:06:50,960 --> 00:06:52,400 Speaker 2: quick and I'll get it right back to you. But 139 00:06:52,880 --> 00:06:54,760 Speaker 2: I was on with Colin kylehar earlier this week and 140 00:06:54,800 --> 00:06:56,720 Speaker 2: he asked me, he said, so what does Cooper Flagg 141 00:06:56,800 --> 00:06:59,960 Speaker 2: have to work on? And admittedly I wasn't ready for 142 00:07:00,120 --> 00:07:02,960 Speaker 2: that question, right, But I don't think there's like a 143 00:07:03,000 --> 00:07:05,719 Speaker 2: ton of weaknesses. It's not like, oh he can't shoot, 144 00:07:06,000 --> 00:07:09,720 Speaker 2: or oh he doesn't defend, or oh he only does 145 00:07:09,840 --> 00:07:13,840 Speaker 2: this one thing insanely well. He does. It's almost like 146 00:07:13,880 --> 00:07:18,080 Speaker 2: a five tool baseball player that does everything very well. 147 00:07:18,400 --> 00:07:20,320 Speaker 2: But to your point, J Martin I'll toss it back 148 00:07:20,360 --> 00:07:23,400 Speaker 2: to you if Dallas was drafting him, and I don't 149 00:07:23,400 --> 00:07:25,760 Speaker 2: think they were just needing him to come in to 150 00:07:25,800 --> 00:07:27,560 Speaker 2: score thirty points a game. And I think that's actually 151 00:07:27,560 --> 00:07:29,960 Speaker 2: really quick. I think that's actually why Dallas is such 152 00:07:30,000 --> 00:07:31,920 Speaker 2: a great fit. And we can kind of transition into 153 00:07:31,920 --> 00:07:34,880 Speaker 2: that if you want, is that he isn't a guy 154 00:07:34,920 --> 00:07:37,280 Speaker 2: that's gonna come in and just get you thirty and 155 00:07:37,320 --> 00:07:39,200 Speaker 2: that's not what they need. And so I think it's 156 00:07:39,240 --> 00:07:41,239 Speaker 2: actually a best case scenario for both parties. 157 00:07:41,600 --> 00:07:45,440 Speaker 1: Yeah, would you say Mike Trout is fair, Yeah, some 158 00:07:45,480 --> 00:07:47,360 Speaker 1: way in terms of like Mike Trout. I don't know 159 00:07:47,360 --> 00:07:50,040 Speaker 1: that Mike Trout has like a go to thing, but 160 00:07:50,120 --> 00:07:52,400 Speaker 1: he's not bad at any one thing. I heard one 161 00:07:52,440 --> 00:07:54,520 Speaker 1: critique this week at Cooper Flagg that said he needs 162 00:07:54,520 --> 00:07:56,720 Speaker 1: to go to move. I don't know if he does 163 00:07:56,800 --> 00:07:59,600 Speaker 1: or not. I mean, we'll see. Maybe that's going to 164 00:07:59,640 --> 00:08:01,280 Speaker 1: develop for him, but I think that he's just going 165 00:08:01,320 --> 00:08:03,000 Speaker 1: to be able to help them in a myriad of 166 00:08:03,040 --> 00:08:09,680 Speaker 1: different ways. But past that, I was so just irritated 167 00:08:10,400 --> 00:08:13,200 Speaker 1: this week by the way Cooper Flag was talked about 168 00:08:13,240 --> 00:08:18,320 Speaker 1: and it wasn't even about him individually. I cannot believe that. 169 00:08:18,440 --> 00:08:22,320 Speaker 1: We immediately jumped to people in our industry jumped to 170 00:08:23,240 --> 00:08:25,640 Speaker 1: the Dallas Mavericks are going to compete for the Western 171 00:08:25,680 --> 00:08:29,640 Speaker 1: Conference this year this coming season. Because of this, I'm 172 00:08:29,680 --> 00:08:32,480 Speaker 1: thinking to myself, what are we doing? Like, what exactly 173 00:08:32,520 --> 00:08:36,360 Speaker 1: are you setting up Cooper Flag to do? Because the 174 00:08:36,400 --> 00:08:39,319 Speaker 1: beauty of this, if you're someone that wants to trade 175 00:08:39,360 --> 00:08:41,760 Speaker 1: in this kind of thing, is that if it goes wrong, 176 00:08:42,320 --> 00:08:47,120 Speaker 1: you automatically have this, well did we overrate Cooper Flag? 177 00:08:47,440 --> 00:08:49,199 Speaker 1: And then you have that take that you can then 178 00:08:49,240 --> 00:08:51,680 Speaker 1: do and grift for a couple of weeks. And I 179 00:08:51,800 --> 00:08:54,560 Speaker 1: mentioned last night when I was filling in for Chris 180 00:08:54,600 --> 00:08:58,560 Speaker 1: that grift is a term that is used like a 181 00:08:58,600 --> 00:09:00,360 Speaker 1: club and a lot of times that you used in 182 00:09:00,400 --> 00:09:02,520 Speaker 1: a bad way, Like a lot of people say it's 183 00:09:02,520 --> 00:09:06,680 Speaker 1: a grift just because it's something they disagree with. So clearly, 184 00:09:06,800 --> 00:09:08,840 Speaker 1: if it's not my take, then it has to be 185 00:09:08,880 --> 00:09:12,200 Speaker 1: some kind of phony AstroTurf deal. What I mean by 186 00:09:12,320 --> 00:09:16,640 Speaker 1: grift is there is a content farm here where you 187 00:09:16,679 --> 00:09:19,880 Speaker 1: can get take after take, day after day of coverage 188 00:09:19,920 --> 00:09:22,960 Speaker 1: saying the exact same thing, and then you can then 189 00:09:23,000 --> 00:09:25,080 Speaker 1: grift the opposite if it goes the wrong way and 190 00:09:25,120 --> 00:09:27,360 Speaker 1: nobody's going to be held to account for what they say. 191 00:09:27,760 --> 00:09:31,240 Speaker 1: It is ridiculous to start saying that the MAVs should 192 00:09:31,240 --> 00:09:33,840 Speaker 1: compete for the Western Conference this coming year. I also 193 00:09:33,880 --> 00:09:35,880 Speaker 1: read this week that Anthony Edwards is not going to 194 00:09:35,920 --> 00:09:38,439 Speaker 1: be good enough this coming year to get the t 195 00:09:38,600 --> 00:09:41,600 Speaker 1: Wolves to the finals. So you're telling me that the 196 00:09:41,600 --> 00:09:43,520 Speaker 1: t Wolves have been in the conference finals now for 197 00:09:43,520 --> 00:09:47,800 Speaker 1: the last couple of seasons, that that team with Anthony Edwards, 198 00:09:47,800 --> 00:09:50,000 Speaker 1: who we were told was Michael Jordan a season ago, 199 00:09:50,120 --> 00:09:51,920 Speaker 1: is not good enough to get that done. But Cooper 200 00:09:51,960 --> 00:09:53,480 Speaker 1: Flag and the MAVs are going to get to the 201 00:09:53,480 --> 00:09:56,360 Speaker 1: Western Conference finals. I hate it for him because I 202 00:09:56,720 --> 00:09:59,040 Speaker 1: just think there's nowhere for him to go but down 203 00:09:59,080 --> 00:10:01,960 Speaker 1: from there because he goes how many dudes Aaron in 204 00:10:02,000 --> 00:10:05,240 Speaker 1: the history of this league have gone to the conference 205 00:10:05,280 --> 00:10:08,360 Speaker 1: finals in year one? And I understand that usually a 206 00:10:08,400 --> 00:10:12,040 Speaker 1: team like Dallas doesn't win the lottery. We can do 207 00:10:12,200 --> 00:10:15,199 Speaker 1: that exactly where it is. But Kyrie's not gonna be 208 00:10:15,240 --> 00:10:18,280 Speaker 1: back until twenty twenty six because of his injury, first 209 00:10:18,320 --> 00:10:20,840 Speaker 1: of all, and we'll see, hopefully there's no setbacks, and 210 00:10:21,200 --> 00:10:23,760 Speaker 1: he seems like he's gonna be ready and whatever else, 211 00:10:23,800 --> 00:10:25,640 Speaker 1: but like it's gonna be around the All Star break. 212 00:10:25,679 --> 00:10:28,240 Speaker 1: And then you got Anthony Davis, who, well, he got 213 00:10:28,320 --> 00:10:30,439 Speaker 1: hurt his first night in the MAVs uniform and he's 214 00:10:30,480 --> 00:10:33,160 Speaker 1: gotten hurt a lot during his career now, and you've 215 00:10:33,200 --> 00:10:35,360 Speaker 1: got solid role players around him. Saw the guys that 216 00:10:35,440 --> 00:10:37,640 Speaker 1: you like around him. I like the makeup of that team. 217 00:10:37,679 --> 00:10:39,720 Speaker 1: I like Jason Kid coaching that team. I like a 218 00:10:39,720 --> 00:10:44,880 Speaker 1: lot about it. But like flag, the West is loaded. 219 00:10:45,160 --> 00:10:48,199 Speaker 1: There's talent all through this league. We just got done 220 00:10:48,240 --> 00:10:51,080 Speaker 1: talking about apparently in the media, the Oklahoma City was 221 00:10:51,080 --> 00:10:53,120 Speaker 1: going to win the next ten championships and it was 222 00:10:53,120 --> 00:10:55,840 Speaker 1: going to be a dynasty, and then that shifted immediately 223 00:10:55,880 --> 00:10:58,120 Speaker 1: after the finals, and now the MAVs are going to 224 00:10:58,200 --> 00:11:00,440 Speaker 1: be competing for the West. I just don't know why 225 00:11:00,440 --> 00:11:03,280 Speaker 1: we have to go to the extremes instead of just saying, man, 226 00:11:03,320 --> 00:11:05,200 Speaker 1: you know what, the future could be bright for Dallas 227 00:11:05,240 --> 00:11:07,480 Speaker 1: because this kid offers a lot to them. It's going 228 00:11:07,520 --> 00:11:09,760 Speaker 1: to be interesting to see what they're able to do 229 00:11:09,800 --> 00:11:11,960 Speaker 1: in the short term, but clearly they have the building 230 00:11:12,040 --> 00:11:14,400 Speaker 1: blocks for a solid future. But that doesn't get you 231 00:11:14,440 --> 00:11:18,200 Speaker 1: two hundred thousand views on YouTube. That doesn't get you 232 00:11:18,320 --> 00:11:21,360 Speaker 1: all the clicks and all that, So instead you have 233 00:11:21,440 --> 00:11:24,720 Speaker 1: to say something absolutely insane, so that then if it 234 00:11:24,760 --> 00:11:26,719 Speaker 1: goes wrong, you can even admit it. You can say, 235 00:11:26,760 --> 00:11:30,480 Speaker 1: you know what I got. I believed in Cooper Flag 236 00:11:30,520 --> 00:11:33,080 Speaker 1: a little bit too much. Turns out he was just 237 00:11:33,200 --> 00:11:36,480 Speaker 1: the next typed guy. He was the Trevor Lawrence of 238 00:11:36,559 --> 00:11:39,120 Speaker 1: the NBA or whatever it's going to be like that, 239 00:11:39,480 --> 00:11:42,000 Speaker 1: and I just think that's I think that's wrong to do. 240 00:11:42,600 --> 00:11:45,080 Speaker 1: I don't think that it's intellectually honest. I think that 241 00:11:45,160 --> 00:11:47,800 Speaker 1: those that are doing it know exactly what they're doing 242 00:11:48,160 --> 00:11:51,720 Speaker 1: when they go down that road. And I just think, like, 243 00:11:51,880 --> 00:11:55,880 Speaker 1: he hasn't played a second of NBA basketball. It took 244 00:11:55,960 --> 00:11:59,480 Speaker 1: durant time. It took Lebron time to get anywhere with 245 00:11:59,559 --> 00:12:01,599 Speaker 1: the team he was on. Sure, this roster is a 246 00:12:01,640 --> 00:12:03,920 Speaker 1: little bit ahead of schedule, but there's a lot of 247 00:12:03,920 --> 00:12:06,440 Speaker 1: things that can make this thing go south. And so 248 00:12:06,559 --> 00:12:08,920 Speaker 1: I just I did not like that discourse at all 249 00:12:09,040 --> 00:12:12,240 Speaker 1: because it seemed so over the top, way too soon. 250 00:12:12,640 --> 00:12:14,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't know if there's a difference. I mean, 251 00:12:14,679 --> 00:12:17,520 Speaker 2: I guess there is between like TV and radio, because 252 00:12:17,559 --> 00:12:20,240 Speaker 2: it's like on a show like this, we just have 253 00:12:20,280 --> 00:12:23,120 Speaker 2: a conversation, Okay, Cooper fly goes number one? What are expectations? 254 00:12:23,120 --> 00:12:27,160 Speaker 2: And I don't know if because there's a graphical element involved, 255 00:12:27,160 --> 00:12:30,120 Speaker 2: like there has to be the bold thing on the topic, 256 00:12:30,200 --> 00:12:32,880 Speaker 2: bar or what. But it is like, no matter what 257 00:12:32,920 --> 00:12:35,280 Speaker 2: the topic is, it can't just be let's break down 258 00:12:35,360 --> 00:12:39,439 Speaker 2: game one. It's gotta be generational mismatch. It's gonna be this. 259 00:12:40,480 --> 00:12:42,960 Speaker 2: You know, I I saw one and I know you're 260 00:12:43,000 --> 00:12:45,760 Speaker 2: a thunder fan, but it was like, going into game seven, 261 00:12:46,200 --> 00:12:48,960 Speaker 2: Shay's either gonna prove he's the best player in the 262 00:12:48,960 --> 00:12:52,280 Speaker 2: world or not. And it was like I just saw 263 00:12:52,360 --> 00:12:54,959 Speaker 2: Jokic score like I think you had like fifty two 264 00:12:55,040 --> 00:12:58,640 Speaker 2: and eighteen in a loss, Like no disrespect, I don't 265 00:12:58,679 --> 00:13:01,960 Speaker 2: think this is gonna prove Like, by the way, congrats 266 00:13:02,320 --> 00:13:05,920 Speaker 2: Shay one Finals MVP, regular MVP in an NBA Championship. 267 00:13:05,920 --> 00:13:07,520 Speaker 2: I don't think he cares if you're calling him the 268 00:13:07,520 --> 00:13:09,440 Speaker 2: best player in the world. So I don't know if 269 00:13:09,480 --> 00:13:15,000 Speaker 2: it's just people are unable to contextualize things without having 270 00:13:15,080 --> 00:13:17,760 Speaker 2: to have the stakes that they do. But I am 271 00:13:17,800 --> 00:13:20,959 Speaker 2: with you, though, is I thought I thought we all 272 00:13:21,120 --> 00:13:24,880 Speaker 2: kind of understood like, hey, something a little sketchy happened here, 273 00:13:25,080 --> 00:13:27,800 Speaker 2: but it worked out really well and the Mavericks are 274 00:13:27,840 --> 00:13:30,640 Speaker 2: going to be interesting going forward. But I also kind 275 00:13:30,640 --> 00:13:34,480 Speaker 2: of thought that we acknowledged a wait a second, at 276 00:13:34,480 --> 00:13:36,760 Speaker 2: the same time, a guy by the name of Kyrie 277 00:13:36,760 --> 00:13:39,400 Speaker 2: Irving is not going to be available next year, right, 278 00:13:39,720 --> 00:13:43,520 Speaker 2: And like, you know, to me, it's like it completely 279 00:13:44,840 --> 00:13:47,800 Speaker 2: invalidates any conversation about the MAVs where it's like you 280 00:13:48,160 --> 00:13:51,040 Speaker 2: and like sometimes guys can say stuff and you could disagree, 281 00:13:51,040 --> 00:13:52,760 Speaker 2: but you can kind of be like, well, you know, 282 00:13:52,840 --> 00:13:56,480 Speaker 2: the this is like, no, the whole conversation still centers 283 00:13:56,520 --> 00:14:00,000 Speaker 2: around if you don't have Kyrie Irving, none of it maddens. 284 00:14:00,440 --> 00:14:04,320 Speaker 2: And so I don't know, man, I'm with you in that. 285 00:14:05,000 --> 00:14:09,240 Speaker 2: I did see some of that coming out of the 286 00:14:09,320 --> 00:14:12,040 Speaker 2: day Wednesday into Thursday, and I was like, really, we 287 00:14:12,360 --> 00:14:15,480 Speaker 2: went straight from like they didn't make the playoffs and 288 00:14:15,559 --> 00:14:18,280 Speaker 2: Kyrie's not coming back to if they don't make the 289 00:14:18,320 --> 00:14:20,280 Speaker 2: playoffs next year, they're gonna be earth. If they don't 290 00:14:20,320 --> 00:14:22,920 Speaker 2: compete for the Western Conference championship next year, they're gonna 291 00:14:22,920 --> 00:14:26,520 Speaker 2: be a failure. So it's very weird, I will say, 292 00:14:26,560 --> 00:14:29,640 Speaker 2: big picture. I'm excited about the MAVs. And by the way, 293 00:14:29,640 --> 00:14:32,400 Speaker 2: I do understand, Hey, Kyrie's thirty plus at this point, 294 00:14:32,440 --> 00:14:34,480 Speaker 2: Anthony Davis is thirty plus at this point. You have 295 00:14:34,560 --> 00:14:37,760 Speaker 2: a small window, but I don't know that that window 296 00:14:37,840 --> 00:14:41,440 Speaker 2: includes next year, where again Kyrie Irving is not going 297 00:14:41,480 --> 00:14:43,800 Speaker 2: to be available for the vast majority of it, if 298 00:14:43,840 --> 00:14:44,640 Speaker 2: any of it at all. 299 00:14:45,080 --> 00:14:47,160 Speaker 1: So I'm gonna make one other point. I finished the 300 00:14:47,200 --> 00:14:51,200 Speaker 1: show last night with this. I saw that Cooper Flagg 301 00:14:51,280 --> 00:14:53,840 Speaker 1: actually called it a blessing that he's going into a 302 00:14:53,880 --> 00:14:57,960 Speaker 1: situation where he's not the number one option, where you 303 00:14:58,000 --> 00:15:00,440 Speaker 1: know he's gonna be able to learn from Kyrie, learn 304 00:15:00,480 --> 00:15:03,320 Speaker 1: from Anthony Davis, learn from these veterans. Said exactly what 305 00:15:03,360 --> 00:15:05,600 Speaker 1: you would want somebody to say. Everything that you hear 306 00:15:05,640 --> 00:15:08,360 Speaker 1: about Cooper Flag. He seems like he's totally legit when 307 00:15:08,400 --> 00:15:11,600 Speaker 1: it comes to just being a guy who understands and 308 00:15:11,680 --> 00:15:14,080 Speaker 1: appreciates and is kind of humble and always has been, 309 00:15:14,400 --> 00:15:16,360 Speaker 1: and all this kind of stuff. So that's all really positive. 310 00:15:16,440 --> 00:15:19,240 Speaker 1: He said that. Here's why I actually made a point 311 00:15:19,240 --> 00:15:21,880 Speaker 1: to talk about it. You think the media are going 312 00:15:21,960 --> 00:15:24,720 Speaker 1: to cover him that way? Because I don't he can 313 00:15:24,760 --> 00:15:26,760 Speaker 1: say that you know, it's this blessing to be in here, 314 00:15:26,800 --> 00:15:29,080 Speaker 1: and I'm looking at who's covering it and who's writing 315 00:15:29,080 --> 00:15:31,960 Speaker 1: about him saying this, and I'm like, I don't buy 316 00:15:32,080 --> 00:15:34,560 Speaker 1: for a minute that they are not going to act 317 00:15:34,720 --> 00:15:38,760 Speaker 1: like he's the guy, even if you know Kyrie is 318 00:15:38,800 --> 00:15:41,200 Speaker 1: the one that's scoring more points, or Anthony Davis is, 319 00:15:41,800 --> 00:15:44,680 Speaker 1: you know, playing his defense or whatever, Cooper Flag is 320 00:15:44,720 --> 00:15:46,840 Speaker 1: coming along. But like, let's say Cooper Flag ends the 321 00:15:46,920 --> 00:15:50,080 Speaker 1: year with I don't even know what's fair eighteen and 322 00:15:50,120 --> 00:15:52,720 Speaker 1: eight or so, I don't know whatever right he's having. 323 00:15:53,160 --> 00:15:56,720 Speaker 1: He's filling up statutes in different categories, but nothing like 324 00:15:56,800 --> 00:16:00,520 Speaker 1: totally stands out. I still think he's gonna get dogged 325 00:16:00,520 --> 00:16:03,440 Speaker 1: out for not being the alpha. There's gonna be somebody 326 00:16:03,440 --> 00:16:06,320 Speaker 1: else that has less talent on their team that's showing 327 00:16:06,360 --> 00:16:09,080 Speaker 1: out like an alpha, and that's gonna be the knock. 328 00:16:09,240 --> 00:16:12,960 Speaker 1: Like look at Caleb Williams and Jayden Daniels last year 329 00:16:13,520 --> 00:16:16,720 Speaker 1: and think about how Jaden Daniels was talked about after 330 00:16:16,760 --> 00:16:18,680 Speaker 1: the fact. It was because of the way it was 331 00:16:18,760 --> 00:16:22,240 Speaker 1: approached first to where he was able to kind of ascend. Here, 332 00:16:22,280 --> 00:16:24,800 Speaker 1: you're giving Cooper Flag the flowers first so that you 333 00:16:24,800 --> 00:16:27,120 Speaker 1: can then take them away later on. You don't have 334 00:16:27,200 --> 00:16:29,480 Speaker 1: to give the dude the entire bouquet. You can just 335 00:16:29,520 --> 00:16:31,320 Speaker 1: give him a dozen roses and say he's going to 336 00:16:31,360 --> 00:16:33,920 Speaker 1: be a good basketball player. Can't wait to see what 337 00:16:34,000 --> 00:16:37,040 Speaker 1: he brings. Because him saying it's a blessing, I know 338 00:16:37,120 --> 00:16:39,600 Speaker 1: exactly what he means and it's the right thing to say. 339 00:16:40,200 --> 00:16:42,080 Speaker 1: But there is no way the media is going to 340 00:16:42,160 --> 00:16:44,520 Speaker 1: treat it as if he's not the number one option 341 00:16:44,720 --> 00:16:48,240 Speaker 1: because of his name and because there's too much invested 342 00:16:48,360 --> 00:16:49,760 Speaker 1: in that name for their content. 343 00:16:50,400 --> 00:16:54,400 Speaker 2: Well, i'll tell you what. The media coverage already took 344 00:16:54,440 --> 00:16:57,680 Speaker 2: a twist on Friday following the NBA Draft, and I 345 00:16:57,680 --> 00:17:01,080 Speaker 2: think the media coverage of Cooper Flags not only what 346 00:17:01,200 --> 00:17:05,560 Speaker 2: is expected of him, but why it is expected of him. 347 00:17:06,000 --> 00:17:08,160 Speaker 2: It's gonna be a fascinating talking point over the next 348 00:17:08,200 --> 00:17:10,800 Speaker 2: twelve months, let alone the totality of his career. So 349 00:17:10,840 --> 00:17:14,560 Speaker 2: we're gonna come back some very interesting comments about Cooper 350 00:17:14,600 --> 00:17:16,720 Speaker 2: Flag and what he needs to be or what he 351 00:17:16,880 --> 00:17:20,560 Speaker 2: might be. That's next. Er Torris Jason Martin, Fox Sports Radio. 352 00:17:20,920 --> 00:17:23,120 Speaker 4: Hi, this is Jay.

I mean, I'm a little bit older these days. 386 00:18:58,840 --> 00:19:00,920 Speaker 2: Like I said, this song is probably twenty plus years old, 387 00:19:01,000 --> 00:19:03,520 Speaker 2: two thousand and eight, two thousand and eight. So let's 388 00:19:03,560 --> 00:19:06,480 Speaker 2: do some math here.

We just 399 00:19:35,119 --> 00:19:38,280 Speaker 2: talked a minute ago about just you know, just some 400 00:19:38,359 --> 00:19:43,480 Speaker 2: of the immediate discourse that that that becomes, you know, 401 00:19:43,600 --> 00:19:46,160 Speaker 2: part of the conversation when he gets selected about the Mavericks, 402 00:19:46,200 --> 00:19:51,280 Speaker 2: this and that. Unfortunately, there was another discourse that I 403 00:19:51,440 --> 00:19:54,520 Speaker 2: was really hoping that we weren't gonna get. 404 00:19:55,119 --> 00:19:57,160 Speaker 1: But you knew it was coming, bro, I did. 405 00:19:57,440 --> 00:20:01,000 Speaker 2: I thought maybe we could get through like two days 406 00:20:01,040 --> 00:20:04,400 Speaker 2: without getting to it. Nah, well you know you sent 407 00:20:04,480 --> 00:20:08,720 Speaker 2: me a David Aldridge clip or a David Aldridge right up. 408 00:20:08,760 --> 00:20:11,640 Speaker 2: We'll get to that in a moment. But you got 409 00:20:11,640 --> 00:20:13,879 Speaker 2: to hear what came out of first take yesterday. This 410 00:20:13,960 --> 00:20:15,959 Speaker 2: courtesy of Peter Rosenberg. 411 00:20:16,320 --> 00:20:18,720 Speaker 7: We're all adults. We can have a real life conversation 412 00:20:18,880 --> 00:20:22,040 Speaker 7: right now. Last time I checked, we still live in America, right. 413 00:20:24,160 --> 00:20:29,560 Speaker 7: Cooper Flag is a white guy, maybe the best white 414 00:20:29,640 --> 00:20:34,199 Speaker 7: American prospects since Larry Bird. Right, Let's not act as 415 00:20:34,200 --> 00:20:36,240 Speaker 7: if we don't live in America. We're not seeing what's 416 00:20:36,240 --> 00:20:39,560 Speaker 7: happening with Caitlin Clark in the WNBA. Cooper Flag is 417 00:20:39,600 --> 00:20:43,119 Speaker 7: going to be an instant impact player in the NBA. 418 00:20:43,119 --> 00:20:45,640 Speaker 7: I think Danny will agree, he is ready to go that. 419 00:20:45,640 --> 00:20:50,240 Speaker 8: Kid could play right now if he's nearly as good 420 00:20:50,280 --> 00:20:53,240 Speaker 8: as people expect. I think when it comes to intrigue, 421 00:20:53,800 --> 00:20:56,200 Speaker 8: actual intrigue that people are talking about day to day, 422 00:20:56,520 --> 00:20:58,560 Speaker 8: no one's going to be more intriguing and get more 423 00:20:58,600 --> 00:21:01,119 Speaker 8: eyeballs than with Cooper, Like Zulian Dallas. 424 00:21:01,880 --> 00:21:04,200 Speaker 2: That was Peter Rosenberg ESPN. 425 00:21:04,400 --> 00:21:05,800 Speaker 1: Does he now work for ESPN. 426 00:21:06,640 --> 00:21:09,000 Speaker 2: I'm not I'm not trying to be no yeah, no, no, no, 427 00:21:09,040 --> 00:21:10,840 Speaker 2: I'm not trying to be that guy that's like, oh, 428 00:21:10,880 --> 00:21:12,720 Speaker 2: I don't know who that guy was, Like, I. 429 00:21:12,720 --> 00:21:14,600 Speaker 1: Don't know who he is, Like he's never heard of 430 00:21:14,640 --> 00:21:16,000 Speaker 1: Tom New York radio hosts. 431 00:21:16,040 --> 00:21:18,680 Speaker 2: Okay, Well, I worked. 432 00:21:18,440 --> 00:21:20,280 Speaker 1: For WWE for a long time, so I was just 433 00:21:20,320 --> 00:21:22,400 Speaker 1: curious and if he's working, if he went from w 434 00:21:22,400 --> 00:21:24,680 Speaker 1: w E to ESPN, I would say the McAfee thing 435 00:21:24,720 --> 00:21:25,320 Speaker 1: probably helped. 436 00:21:25,440 --> 00:21:27,880 Speaker 2: Well, I was gonna say, is like I had never 437 00:21:27,960 --> 00:21:30,399 Speaker 2: really heard the name. And then I looked him up 438 00:21:30,400 --> 00:21:31,600 Speaker 2: a little bit and people were like, oh, he's a 439 00:21:31,640 --> 00:21:34,400 Speaker 2: wrestling guy. But I want to talk about that take 440 00:21:34,480 --> 00:21:36,720 Speaker 2: and and a couple of things here is one. First 441 00:21:36,720 --> 00:21:40,240 Speaker 2: of all, I love like he was kind of it 442 00:21:40,320 --> 00:21:42,040 Speaker 2: was kind of funny to listen to and if the 443 00:21:42,119 --> 00:21:44,920 Speaker 2: visual is better. But he's kind of like dipping his 444 00:21:44,960 --> 00:21:48,199 Speaker 2: toe in, like I'm going here, and like you can 445 00:21:48,280 --> 00:21:50,880 Speaker 2: see everybody on set, like we're about to do this now, 446 00:21:50,880 --> 00:21:54,080 Speaker 2: aren't we. But two, I just want to share my 447 00:21:54,160 --> 00:21:56,520 Speaker 2: thoughts on it really quick, and and and and then 448 00:21:56,560 --> 00:21:58,280 Speaker 2: I'll get it over to you. I have two quick thoughts. 449 00:21:58,320 --> 00:22:02,520 Speaker 2: I'll be quick. One, listen, I am not gonna be 450 00:22:02,560 --> 00:22:06,720 Speaker 2: disingenuous and say that Caitlyn Clark's popularity has zero to 451 00:22:06,840 --> 00:22:09,399 Speaker 2: do with her being white. Okay, but the WNBA has 452 00:22:09,440 --> 00:22:13,320 Speaker 2: had plenty of white stars that did not cross over 453 00:22:13,760 --> 00:22:15,240 Speaker 2: in the manner in which Caitlyn Clark did. And we 454 00:22:15,280 --> 00:22:18,400 Speaker 2: know the name Sue Bird, Lena Della don pretty honest, 455 00:22:18,400 --> 00:22:23,600 Speaker 2: Stuart whatever. Two, you know her game is, what does it? 456 00:22:23,760 --> 00:22:26,880 Speaker 2: But two, this is the part that I think is 457 00:22:27,080 --> 00:22:31,320 Speaker 2: actually the real story here. He was a white But 458 00:22:31,480 --> 00:22:33,359 Speaker 2: by the way, I just want to set the record 459 00:22:33,520 --> 00:22:35,520 Speaker 2: straight here, he was white when he was a Duke 460 00:22:35,600 --> 00:22:37,600 Speaker 2: last year. I think I don't know if everybody is 461 00:22:37,640 --> 00:22:39,280 Speaker 2: aware of that. I'm not sure if Peter Rosenberg is 462 00:22:39,280 --> 00:22:42,600 Speaker 2: aware of that. He was white at Duke last year 463 00:22:43,080 --> 00:22:45,880 Speaker 2: for the number one team in the country, and he 464 00:22:46,000 --> 00:22:49,760 Speaker 2: really didn't cross over and become the thing that I 465 00:22:49,960 --> 00:22:53,640 Speaker 2: thought he was going to be. And so one, don't 466 00:22:53,640 --> 00:22:55,520 Speaker 2: compare him to Kayln Clark, because I think she's a 467 00:22:55,560 --> 00:22:59,560 Speaker 2: once in a lifetime unicorn. Two, I actually think if 468 00:22:59,560 --> 00:23:04,040 Speaker 2: he's gonna be, if he becomes a thing, it's gonna 469 00:23:04,080 --> 00:23:06,440 Speaker 2: be because of his play. Because he was a white 470 00:23:06,480 --> 00:23:09,240 Speaker 2: superstar this last year, a duke, and nobody really cared 471 00:23:09,280 --> 00:23:10,680 Speaker 2: that much. And I say that as somebody who loves 472 00:23:10,680 --> 00:23:15,400 Speaker 2: college basketball, but also it's going to be because he's 473 00:23:15,440 --> 00:23:18,399 Speaker 2: really awesome. So I thought the take was lame. To 474 00:23:18,480 --> 00:23:22,560 Speaker 2: go back to the first segment, I don't think people 475 00:23:22,720 --> 00:23:25,760 Speaker 2: know how to just talk sports and immediately have to 476 00:23:25,800 --> 00:23:28,880 Speaker 2: interject are they the championship favorite? Well, it's only because 477 00:23:28,880 --> 00:23:32,080 Speaker 2: he's white. Well, it's like, and this is just another 478 00:23:32,400 --> 00:23:36,760 Speaker 2: example of why people are driven crazy by people in 479 00:23:36,800 --> 00:23:40,080 Speaker 2: our industry. We can't get through thirty six hours after 480 00:23:40,119 --> 00:23:44,000 Speaker 2: the draft without it immediately defaulting to, well, if he's good, 481 00:23:44,240 --> 00:23:46,280 Speaker 2: the only reason he's gonna be popular is because he's white. 482 00:23:47,400 --> 00:23:50,280 Speaker 1: It's very unfortunate and it just kind of shows where 483 00:23:50,320 --> 00:23:53,320 Speaker 1: we are. So so you said I mentioned and sent 484 00:23:53,440 --> 00:23:56,200 Speaker 1: you that David aldrichby So Aldridge wrote a big time, 485 00:23:56,359 --> 00:24:01,320 Speaker 1: like long sort of precursor to Sam Vestine's NBA Draft primer, 486 00:24:01,359 --> 00:24:04,280 Speaker 1: which is comparable, and even Aldridge makes this point in 487 00:24:04,320 --> 00:24:08,560 Speaker 1: the piece to Dame Brugler's Beast. It comes out before 488 00:24:08,560 --> 00:24:10,840 Speaker 1: the NFL Draft, and there's always like a setup piece 489 00:24:10,880 --> 00:24:12,879 Speaker 1: for that. So Aldridge kind of lays out and he 490 00:24:12,960 --> 00:24:15,119 Speaker 1: gives a lot of good information in this piece. It's lengthy, 491 00:24:15,160 --> 00:24:17,440 Speaker 1: and it goes through a lot of these prospects, and 492 00:24:17,760 --> 00:24:19,920 Speaker 1: you know this, Aaron like, we've come to a place 493 00:24:19,920 --> 00:24:22,040 Speaker 1: where we just don't know these college players, and I 494 00:24:22,080 --> 00:24:24,600 Speaker 1: certainly don't know these foreign players the way we once did, 495 00:24:25,240 --> 00:24:27,320 Speaker 1: and so these things are very helpful. So I'm reading 496 00:24:27,359 --> 00:24:32,040 Speaker 1: the article, and Aldridge is a Hall of Fame writer. 497 00:24:33,040 --> 00:24:36,520 Speaker 1: Haven't agreed with everything that he said, especially in recent years. 498 00:24:37,480 --> 00:24:39,560 Speaker 1: But Cooper Flag, of course, is going to be the 499 00:24:39,560 --> 00:24:43,119 Speaker 1: first one that's mentioned. He's in the headline, and so 500 00:24:43,200 --> 00:24:46,199 Speaker 1: there are two paragraphs here that started out what he 501 00:24:46,320 --> 00:24:49,679 Speaker 1: was saying about Cooper Flag, and I'm just gonna I'm 502 00:24:49,680 --> 00:24:51,440 Speaker 1: gonna read it again. I'm gonna read it out loud. 503 00:24:51,920 --> 00:24:54,240 Speaker 1: When we get to the second paragraph. I just need 504 00:24:54,280 --> 00:24:58,800 Speaker 1: somebody to explain to me why the second paragraph needed 505 00:24:58,840 --> 00:25:01,520 Speaker 1: to be here at all and what is the purpose 506 00:25:01,600 --> 00:25:05,000 Speaker 1: of this? First paragraph says, quote, absolutely, no one involved 507 00:25:05,000 --> 00:25:08,280 Speaker 1: with basketball at any level Begrudge's Flag this moment, his 508 00:25:08,359 --> 00:25:12,080 Speaker 1: moment in the spotlight. The sentiment is universal, as it's 509 00:25:12,119 --> 00:25:14,320 Speaker 1: been since the moment he burst onto the scene as 510 00:25:14,359 --> 00:25:16,800 Speaker 1: a teenager out of Newport, Maine a few years ago. 511 00:25:16,880 --> 00:25:20,880 Speaker 1: Cooper Flag is the man. He doesn't duck anyone. He'll 512 00:25:20,880 --> 00:25:24,240 Speaker 1: play anyone, anytime, anywhere, and his team will usually win. 513 00:25:24,720 --> 00:25:30,200 Speaker 1: And to first paragraph, nothing wrong with that at all? Interesting? Okay, 514 00:25:31,640 --> 00:25:36,399 Speaker 1: second paragraph, The fact that he's white matters not in 515 00:25:36,480 --> 00:25:39,480 Speaker 1: the least to real ballers, as it didn't matter when 516 00:25:39,520 --> 00:25:42,640 Speaker 1: Larry Bird came into the national consciousness at Indiana State 517 00:25:42,640 --> 00:25:45,720 Speaker 1: in the late seventies, where John Stockton in the eighties 518 00:25:46,119 --> 00:25:49,320 Speaker 1: or Steve Nash in the nineties. White kids and black 519 00:25:49,400 --> 00:25:52,600 Speaker 1: kids or Latino or Asian kids need people to emulate. 520 00:25:52,960 --> 00:25:54,600 Speaker 1: And by the way, a lot of those black and 521 00:25:54,680 --> 00:25:59,320 Speaker 1: Latino and Asian kids will emulate Flag too. If you 522 00:25:59,359 --> 00:26:02,320 Speaker 1: can play, no one who loves the orange leather cares 523 00:26:02,359 --> 00:26:05,879 Speaker 1: about your skin color. Cooper can hoop end quote? 524 00:26:07,359 --> 00:26:08,159 Speaker 2: Can I jump in on that? 525 00:26:08,200 --> 00:26:08,320 Speaker 6: Really? 526 00:26:08,359 --> 00:26:10,520 Speaker 2: Quick, yeah you know what that actually sounds like. And 527 00:26:10,560 --> 00:26:13,360 Speaker 2: now we're just going down a crazy rabbit hole. But 528 00:26:13,480 --> 00:26:16,480 Speaker 2: like the guy that has to be like, well, I'm 529 00:26:16,480 --> 00:26:20,439 Speaker 2: not racist. I have a black friend. And it's like yeah, okay, okay, 530 00:26:20,440 --> 00:26:24,560 Speaker 2: we get it, young kids like whatever. Anyway, that's what 531 00:26:24,600 --> 00:26:26,919 Speaker 2: it felt like to me, is like David Aldridg's like 532 00:26:26,960 --> 00:26:30,600 Speaker 2: somehow having to be like, no, it's not about that, 533 00:26:31,119 --> 00:26:32,840 Speaker 2: but it is about that, but it shouldn't be about that, 534 00:26:32,880 --> 00:26:34,240 Speaker 2: but I'm gonna make it about that even though I 535 00:26:34,240 --> 00:26:36,080 Speaker 2: didn't need to make it about that. Does that I 536 00:26:36,080 --> 00:26:36,359 Speaker 2: don't know. 537 00:26:36,440 --> 00:26:39,320 Speaker 1: I don't know. He's over explaining something that doesn't need 538 00:26:39,359 --> 00:26:42,719 Speaker 1: to be explained. We all know he's white. Like you 539 00:26:42,800 --> 00:26:44,719 Speaker 1: said he was white at Duke. I'm pretty sure he 540 00:26:44,800 --> 00:26:47,840 Speaker 1: was white in Maine too, Like I'm pretty sure he's 541 00:26:47,880 --> 00:26:51,600 Speaker 1: been white for a long time. Like we're very cognizant 542 00:26:51,600 --> 00:26:58,320 Speaker 1: of this. So the second paragraph seems to me to 543 00:26:58,440 --> 00:27:03,520 Speaker 1: be basically saying, listen, he's gonna go number one and 544 00:27:03,560 --> 00:27:06,200 Speaker 1: he's white. But who wha, whoa, before you freak out, 545 00:27:06,520 --> 00:27:09,840 Speaker 1: he's actually good, which is like he's not like all 546 00:27:09,840 --> 00:27:13,400 Speaker 1: the other white people. He's actually good. That's how it said, 547 00:27:13,440 --> 00:27:16,720 Speaker 1: and the reason why this is just just you gotta 548 00:27:16,760 --> 00:27:19,199 Speaker 1: be better than this. Anybody's got to be better than this, 549 00:27:19,600 --> 00:27:21,960 Speaker 1: darn sh or David Aldridge needs to be better than this. 550 00:27:22,880 --> 00:27:24,439 Speaker 1: And I don't know if maybe he didn't think this 551 00:27:24,560 --> 00:27:27,040 Speaker 1: through or if somebody didn't, like if somebody edited this 552 00:27:27,359 --> 00:27:29,560 Speaker 1: and didn't say, yeah, we probably shouldn't put this in there. 553 00:27:30,480 --> 00:27:33,160 Speaker 1: Somebody is missing here, and if al Dridge didn't self 554 00:27:33,320 --> 00:27:36,240 Speaker 1: edit and realized like it shouldn't have taken And I 555 00:27:36,240 --> 00:27:37,960 Speaker 1: don't know if anybody even saw it. I was reading 556 00:27:37,960 --> 00:27:39,320 Speaker 1: the article and I said it to you because I 557 00:27:39,359 --> 00:27:41,760 Speaker 1: was just like, what is this? Like, what are we 558 00:27:41,880 --> 00:27:44,480 Speaker 1: doing in this moment? So I opened up the phones 559 00:27:44,560 --> 00:27:47,159 Speaker 1: last night and we had a bunch of people immediately 560 00:27:47,160 --> 00:27:48,560 Speaker 1: call in, and a few of them made a pretty 561 00:27:48,560 --> 00:27:51,280 Speaker 1: good point. They said, it seems like he is speaking 562 00:27:51,320 --> 00:27:55,960 Speaker 1: to the black community to say this guy's legit, that 563 00:27:56,040 --> 00:27:58,919 Speaker 1: he is talking to the black community, and he's basically saying, 564 00:27:59,240 --> 00:28:01,560 Speaker 1: I know, you guys gonna side eye this because we 565 00:28:01,680 --> 00:28:06,800 Speaker 1: all know the color of his skin. But he's really good, y'all. 566 00:28:06,800 --> 00:28:09,680 Speaker 1: Needed he's a real one. This one's legit over here, 567 00:28:09,840 --> 00:28:13,600 Speaker 1: not like the ones over here, he's legit either way. Like, 568 00:28:13,680 --> 00:28:15,840 Speaker 1: let's say that's true and that there's sense behind that. 569 00:28:15,880 --> 00:28:19,000 Speaker 1: There's no question about it. There's no reason to put 570 00:28:19,000 --> 00:28:21,280 Speaker 1: that in here. All you have to say is that 571 00:28:21,320 --> 00:28:24,840 Speaker 1: first paragraph about how he's good and how nobody begrudges 572 00:28:24,880 --> 00:28:27,280 Speaker 1: this moment and he's he's a real one and all 573 00:28:27,320 --> 00:28:28,800 Speaker 1: this other kind of stuff. Like the stuff he said 574 00:28:28,800 --> 00:28:31,720 Speaker 1: in the first paragraph is great. The second paragraph is 575 00:28:31,760 --> 00:28:35,000 Speaker 1: just like, dude, you're telling on yourself, Like, what are 576 00:28:35,080 --> 00:28:38,720 Speaker 1: you suggesting here? If you took the word white out 577 00:28:38,800 --> 00:28:42,160 Speaker 1: and put any other characteristic of any other group, be 578 00:28:42,280 --> 00:28:46,000 Speaker 1: it their gender, their race, their sexuality, any of those 579 00:28:46,080 --> 00:28:48,760 Speaker 1: kinds of things in there, and wrote the exact same 580 00:28:48,920 --> 00:28:52,840 Speaker 1: article with that characteristic listed instead of the word white, 581 00:28:53,360 --> 00:28:55,960 Speaker 1: people would be calling for your job and would be 582 00:28:56,000 --> 00:28:59,560 Speaker 1: outside the New York Times offices demanding the athletic fire 583 00:28:59,600 --> 00:29:01,200 Speaker 1: you are to spend you without pay. 584 00:29:01,760 --> 00:29:03,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, I just I'll make a quick point because we 585 00:29:03,320 --> 00:29:06,400 Speaker 2: gotta get to say her. But isn't that like, isn't 586 00:29:06,480 --> 00:29:09,840 Speaker 2: that on the audience to decide, like if he's legit 587 00:29:09,960 --> 00:29:13,560 Speaker 2: or not. I mean, like it's it's like anything else, 588 00:29:13,760 --> 00:29:17,240 Speaker 2: It doesn't matter what it is is that he's either 589 00:29:17,280 --> 00:29:19,800 Speaker 2: gonna sink or swim, and it's not because he's white. 590 00:29:19,800 --> 00:29:21,800 Speaker 2: It's not because he's not white. It's either because he's 591 00:29:21,800 --> 00:29:24,800 Speaker 2: good enough for he isn't and that will be determined 592 00:29:24,880 --> 00:29:27,440 Speaker 2: in time. Like, you know, I don't even know if 593 00:29:27,480 --> 00:29:33,000 Speaker 2: there is a comparable, you know, cross sport whatever. It's like, 594 00:29:33,080 --> 00:29:36,200 Speaker 2: you know, nobody was like, well Serena, no, but she's legit. 595 00:29:36,240 --> 00:29:38,760 Speaker 2: It's like, no, we just watch her and she's freaking awesome, 596 00:29:39,200 --> 00:29:41,360 Speaker 2: even in a sport that you know has historically been 597 00:29:41,440 --> 00:29:43,840 Speaker 2: very white. She you know, she looked different. But when 598 00:29:43,840 --> 00:29:45,960 Speaker 2: nobody had to like be like, well, you know, just 599 00:29:45,960 --> 00:29:47,640 Speaker 2: just trust me on this one, she's really it's like, no, 600 00:29:48,040 --> 00:29:50,040 Speaker 2: she's freaking awesome, the best that's ever done it. And 601 00:29:50,080 --> 00:29:53,320 Speaker 2: like I'm obviously not saying coop flags, but like like 602 00:29:54,400 --> 00:29:57,120 Speaker 2: it's it's so obvious that it didn't need to be there, 603 00:29:57,880 --> 00:30:00,360 Speaker 2: but then the fact that it's there makes it even 604 00:30:00,400 --> 00:30:02,520 Speaker 2: more weird because, like you said, J Martin, I'll be 605 00:30:02,560 --> 00:30:07,320 Speaker 2: really quick here is like the whole point is like 606 00:30:07,880 --> 00:30:10,720 Speaker 2: the whole point of what we do as consumers and 607 00:30:10,800 --> 00:30:13,760 Speaker 2: fans is that we don't need to like, isn't that 608 00:30:13,920 --> 00:30:16,800 Speaker 2: part of what our complaint is about some of this, 609 00:30:16,880 --> 00:30:19,840 Speaker 2: like first take ESPN culture of like no, Bronni's an 610 00:30:19,880 --> 00:30:22,440 Speaker 2: NBA player, just trust us on this, Like this is 611 00:30:22,440 --> 00:30:24,400 Speaker 2: the reverse of that of like, no, he's really good. 612 00:30:24,480 --> 00:30:26,600 Speaker 2: Trust It's like the games will be played and we 613 00:30:26,640 --> 00:30:29,040 Speaker 2: will figure it out. But if he's good, it isn't 614 00:30:29,040 --> 00:30:31,080 Speaker 2: gonna be because he's white. It's gonna be because he's good. 615 00:30:31,160 --> 00:30:33,040 Speaker 2: Does that make sense, Yeah, it does. 616 00:30:33,160 --> 00:30:35,120 Speaker 1: I mean it just seems like very quickly I would 617 00:30:35,120 --> 00:30:38,160 Speaker 1: say that the way this reads to me, And of course, 618 00:30:38,200 --> 00:30:40,160 Speaker 1: look I'm not in David Aldridge's heart, so I'm not 619 00:30:40,200 --> 00:30:44,280 Speaker 1: saying this is what this means. But it almost is like, yeah, 620 00:30:44,320 --> 00:30:47,000 Speaker 1: we all know whites get preferential treatment and usually like 621 00:30:47,160 --> 00:30:49,800 Speaker 1: this guy actually deserves to go number one, unlike a 622 00:30:49,840 --> 00:30:52,360 Speaker 1: lot of others would like that's kind of like you 623 00:30:52,360 --> 00:30:54,280 Speaker 1: can read it that way, you can take it however 624 00:30:54,320 --> 00:30:56,160 Speaker 1: you want to take it. It's just more than it 625 00:30:56,320 --> 00:31:02,120 Speaker 1: being like offensive. It's just unnecessy like it's just that 626 00:31:02,120 --> 00:31:04,560 Speaker 1: that did not make your piece better, It didn't make 627 00:31:04,600 --> 00:31:09,240 Speaker 1: your reporting better. It told us nothing whatsoever about Cooper 628 00:31:09,240 --> 00:31:12,560 Speaker 1: Flag except that he's white, but he's actually good and 629 00:31:12,600 --> 00:31:15,920 Speaker 1: it's just like, man, we know he's good. We've been 630 00:31:15,960 --> 00:31:18,960 Speaker 1: told he's good before he even got to Duke, Like everybody, 631 00:31:19,240 --> 00:31:22,520 Speaker 1: everybody who watched college basketball last year knows he's good. 632 00:31:22,560 --> 00:31:25,640 Speaker 1: Everyone who's listened to anybody that covers the NBA and 633 00:31:25,760 --> 00:31:28,760 Speaker 1: is on in the inner circles and all that understands 634 00:31:29,120 --> 00:31:32,000 Speaker 1: that Cooper flag is good. You don't have to caveat 635 00:31:32,040 --> 00:31:34,880 Speaker 1: it by saying yes, we understand. Like when you look 636 00:31:34,920 --> 00:31:37,680 Speaker 1: at him, you wouldn't think he's good, but I promise 637 00:31:37,760 --> 00:31:40,880 Speaker 1: you he's good. I just I believe that that is 638 00:31:40,960 --> 00:31:45,000 Speaker 1: beneath somebody, that is beneath anybody that is like bottom 639 00:31:45,040 --> 00:31:47,640 Speaker 1: of the sea level journalism. To me, that's just that's 640 00:31:47,760 --> 00:31:50,520 Speaker 1: just bad. It's it's something you. You should be better 641 00:31:50,560 --> 00:31:52,720 Speaker 1: than that, whoever you are, you should be better than that. 642 00:31:53,080 --> 00:31:55,840 Speaker 1: And somebody like David Alders should definitely be better than that. 643 00:31:56,280 --> 00:31:57,960 Speaker 2: I wish we could open the phone lines, but we 644 00:31:57,960 --> 00:32:00,120 Speaker 2: do have a lot to get to, including a guy 645 00:32:00,120 --> 00:32:02,360 Speaker 2: that I don't need to tell America how good he is, 646 00:32:03,200 --> 00:32:04,760 Speaker 2: Steve Desaga. I know it's a little bit of a 647 00:32:04,800 --> 00:32:09,560 Speaker 2: heavy transition, but uh, it's starting, man, so. 648 00:32:08,960 --> 00:32:11,920 Speaker 9: So so what I'm hearing is that Cooper Flag is 649 00:32:11,920 --> 00:32:12,800 Speaker 9: one of the good ones. 650 00:32:12,960 --> 00:32:13,200 Speaker 1: Yeah. 651 00:32:13,320 --> 00:32:13,640 Speaker 9: Okay. 652 00:32:13,640 --> 00:32:15,960 Speaker 2: So it's like when I say, like, Arnie Spanier stinks, 653 00:32:16,320 --> 00:32:19,600 Speaker 2: but it's not because he's old. It's just he just stinks, 654 00:32:19,680 --> 00:32:19,840 Speaker 2: you know. 655 00:32:19,920 --> 00:32:21,080 Speaker 1: It's like because he's terrible. 656 00:32:21,200 --> 00:32:22,920 Speaker 2: Yeah exactly. That's it's all there is to it. 657 00:32:23,080 --> 00:32:26,600 Speaker 9: So, hey, Markel Foltz was taking number one overall.

THE achilles i want to get 842 00:41:34,200 --> 00:41:37,560 Speaker 2: Into the achilles stuff in, a minute but before we get, into, 843 00:41:37,600 --> 00:41:42,719 Speaker 2: that reaction thoughts on HOW the nba season itself. ACTUALLY ended, i. 844 00:41:42,640 --> 00:41:44,799 Speaker 1: Mean it went, seven GAMES and i think it was 845 00:41:44,880 --> 00:41:47,920 Speaker 1: compelling in terms of just the story that was told 846 00:41:47,960 --> 00:41:52,840 Speaker 1: THROUGHOUT The, nba finals television, coverage notwithstanding and some of 847 00:41:52,880 --> 00:41:56,960 Speaker 1: the other things that were. Going on you just Hate, 848 00:41:57,000 --> 00:42:00,359 Speaker 1: that haliburton who had those three threes To start, game 849 00:42:00,440 --> 00:42:02,959 Speaker 1: seven wasn't there the. Whole, Time look i'm A huge, 850 00:42:03,000 --> 00:42:06,600 Speaker 1: thunder fan but that's not what anybody wants to see in. 851 00:42:06,680 --> 00:42:09,680 Speaker 1: That Spot and, halberton said if he had to do, 852 00:42:09,800 --> 00:42:11,800 Speaker 1: over again he'd have done the, same THING and i 853 00:42:12,320 --> 00:42:14,600 Speaker 1: don't begrudge. HIM that i would, have too like, he said, 854 00:42:14,600 --> 00:42:16,960 Speaker 1: YOU know i wouldn't have been. ABLE to i might 855 00:42:17,040 --> 00:42:19,319 Speaker 1: have regretted it my, whole life, BECAUSE again i don't 856 00:42:19,320 --> 00:42:22,719 Speaker 1: believe in. Championship windows so you never know If the 857 00:42:22,719 --> 00:42:25,600 Speaker 1: pacers ever get there again it's, game seven or if 858 00:42:25,640 --> 00:42:28,040 Speaker 1: you think you, can go. You go, and yeah he Tore, 859 00:42:28,160 --> 00:42:29,920 Speaker 1: the achilles and it reminds you a lot of what 860 00:42:29,960 --> 00:42:33,879 Speaker 1: happened Happened To kevin durant in the finals years Ago 861 00:42:33,880 --> 00:42:37,120 Speaker 1: In golden state after he had the one. Little injury 862 00:42:37,160 --> 00:42:39,719 Speaker 1: it became the big one after that fact when he came. 863 00:42:39,760 --> 00:42:43,200 Speaker 1: Back in but it was hard, To see it was 864 00:42:43,200 --> 00:42:46,680 Speaker 1: hard to watch from. That PERSPECTIVE but i came away 865 00:42:46,960 --> 00:42:50,680 Speaker 1: from the finals Feeling Like oklahoma city had completed the 866 00:42:50,680 --> 00:42:54,880 Speaker 1: goal that they set and showed that their regular season, 867 00:42:55,160 --> 00:42:58,560 Speaker 1: was not, you, know Fugazy As ben maller likes, to 868 00:42:58,560 --> 00:43:01,160 Speaker 1: say it. Wasn't fake and we've seen a lot of 869 00:43:01,160 --> 00:43:04,799 Speaker 1: one seeds that teams that dominate the regular season who play, 870 00:43:04,880 --> 00:43:08,560 Speaker 1: really hard but then, the postseason everybody starts playing and 871 00:43:08,640 --> 00:43:10,760 Speaker 1: you see kind of the weed separate from the. Chat 872 00:43:10,760 --> 00:43:13,239 Speaker 1: THERE but i think the bigger story is just, the 873 00:43:13,320 --> 00:43:18,439 Speaker 1: respect hopefully that was gained By The. Indiana PACERS they 874 00:43:18,640 --> 00:43:21,239 Speaker 1: i don't think they were taken seriously until well after 875 00:43:21,280 --> 00:43:23,960 Speaker 1: they should, have been and they just kept. ON fighting 876 00:43:24,040 --> 00:43:27,040 Speaker 1: i mean that first Half in, game seven Even after halliburton, 877 00:43:27,080 --> 00:43:29,840 Speaker 1: went down they were still playing incredibly hard and they 878 00:43:29,880 --> 00:43:33,239 Speaker 1: could have gotten beaten by thirty because of the way 879 00:43:33,280 --> 00:43:35,920 Speaker 1: the second, half transpired but they kept at least fighting 880 00:43:35,960 --> 00:43:38,200 Speaker 1: it to try and at least keep it interesting as much, 881 00:43:38,239 --> 00:43:40,040 Speaker 1: as possible a lot of. HEART there I Think rick 882 00:43:40,080 --> 00:43:42,440 Speaker 1: carlisle deserves a lot. Of credit but just, those guys 883 00:43:43,040 --> 00:43:45,479 Speaker 1: whether you're Talking about Turner or siakam Or nem Hard 884 00:43:45,560 --> 00:43:48,040 Speaker 1: Or nie smith, or whoever it is just a lot 885 00:43:48,040 --> 00:43:51,000 Speaker 1: of guys that coalesced and just a great. Basketball team 886 00:43:51,280 --> 00:43:54,120 Speaker 1: AND so i think we saw a very highly played 887 00:43:54,800 --> 00:43:58,239 Speaker 1: series between both teams where you saw some good and 888 00:43:58,320 --> 00:44:01,080 Speaker 1: some bad, from both but a good ebb. And FLOW 889 00:44:01,200 --> 00:44:03,800 Speaker 1: so i think generally FOR, the nba just in terms 890 00:44:03,800 --> 00:44:07,600 Speaker 1: of the product that was put out on the floor by, 891 00:44:07,719 --> 00:44:09,960 Speaker 1: THE teams i think you GOT a, I thought i 892 00:44:09,960 --> 00:44:13,680 Speaker 1: think you got a very worthy. Championship round it. 893 00:44:13,640 --> 00:44:18,520 Speaker 2: Was definitely a worthy. CHAMPIONSHIP round i do it does 894 00:44:18,680 --> 00:44:23,239 Speaker 2: feel a little unfulfilling. To, Me, listen okay, Injuries, happen 895 00:44:23,400 --> 00:44:25,360 Speaker 2: okay see wins and never gonna take away. The banner 896 00:44:25,400 --> 00:44:27,800 Speaker 2: but to, your point, You Know hal burton was playing 897 00:44:27,800 --> 00:44:29,880 Speaker 2: on one Leg in, Game six indie, wins that and 898 00:44:29,920 --> 00:44:33,360 Speaker 2: then he was looking really Good in, game seven and 899 00:44:33,400 --> 00:44:36,080 Speaker 2: you feel Terrible because i'll, BE honest i, really thought if, 900 00:44:36,280 --> 00:44:40,000 Speaker 2: you know nothing happened, TO him I thought indiana maybe 901 00:44:40,000 --> 00:44:43,040 Speaker 2: should be the favorite going into. Next year given what 902 00:44:43,080 --> 00:44:46,000 Speaker 2: they've done the last two years. Really quickly h and 903 00:44:46,040 --> 00:44:49,960 Speaker 2: it doesn't actually have to, be quickly but just The the. 904 00:44:50,120 --> 00:44:55,920 Speaker 2: Achilles stuff everybody has. THEIR takes i Did See. Adam silver, 905 00:44:56,120 --> 00:44:58,040 Speaker 2: I'M trying, I swear i try out to criticize them all, 906 00:44:58,080 --> 00:44:59,680 Speaker 2: the time but sometimes he just says. Funny stuff but 907 00:44:59,719 --> 00:45:03,120 Speaker 2: he is. That quote we're GONNA use ai to try 908 00:45:03,120 --> 00:45:05,800 Speaker 2: to get to the bottom Of the achilles. INJURY problem 909 00:45:05,840 --> 00:45:08,040 Speaker 2: i think everybody knows what we're. Talking about but not 910 00:45:08,160 --> 00:45:12,600 Speaker 2: Just That tyrese haliburton tore, his achilles but that an 911 00:45:12,600 --> 00:45:17,400 Speaker 2: injury that seemingly for basically all of basketball eternity was 912 00:45:17,480 --> 00:45:20,720 Speaker 2: kind of this old guy injury end. Of Career, Isaiah Thomas, 913 00:45:20,800 --> 00:45:25,920 Speaker 2: dominique wilkins, You Know. Kobe bryant, you know We Saw 914 00:45:26,000 --> 00:45:28,880 Speaker 2: kevin durant in, twenty nineteen but then obviously, Most Recently 915 00:45:28,960 --> 00:45:32,640 Speaker 2: jason Tatum And. Tyrese halliburton I've heard Damian And, damian 916 00:45:32,680 --> 00:45:35,480 Speaker 2: lillard but even dames, you know. Mid thirties, BUT right, 917 00:45:35,880 --> 00:45:38,040 Speaker 2: i would but still you're, RIGHT though, i, mean like 918 00:45:38,320 --> 00:45:41,839 Speaker 2: how often were their achilles tears period over like the 919 00:45:41,880 --> 00:45:44,239 Speaker 2: first fifty years OF the nba or at least like 920 00:45:44,280 --> 00:45:46,480 Speaker 2: the last twenty his medicine's. Gotten better now we had 921 00:45:46,520 --> 00:45:49,839 Speaker 2: three guys who had had the same injury in. THESE 922 00:45:49,880 --> 00:45:54,040 Speaker 2: playoffs i kind of have a sort of theory, on 923 00:45:54,120 --> 00:45:55,480 Speaker 2: It and i've listened to all. Of them do you 924 00:45:55,520 --> 00:45:57,640 Speaker 2: have any strong opinions on why this might? Be Happening? 925 00:45:57,640 --> 00:46:00,040 Speaker 1: To jmartin the only two THINGS that i continue to. 926 00:46:00,080 --> 00:46:03,799 Speaker 1: Point two one is just Something that i've noticed from 927 00:46:03,920 --> 00:46:07,319 Speaker 1: sight and maybe it's just, flat Wrong but i'll give you. 928 00:46:07,320 --> 00:46:09,560 Speaker 1: That opinion but the other one is Just and i've 929 00:46:09,560 --> 00:46:12,080 Speaker 1: had this conversation with people through the years in. Various 930 00:46:12,080 --> 00:46:17,960 Speaker 1: contexts specialization in youth sports is something that you can 931 00:46:18,000 --> 00:46:20,200 Speaker 1: find some articles, about this and there are some pretty, 932 00:46:20,800 --> 00:46:24,520 Speaker 1: VALID opinions, i think across. The board but if you kind, 933 00:46:24,520 --> 00:46:27,719 Speaker 1: of specialize like think about Like How, lonzo ball if 934 00:46:27,760 --> 00:46:30,680 Speaker 1: you've ever seen like his workout regimen and like what 935 00:46:30,800 --> 00:46:33,440 Speaker 1: he was doing in, high school and like the kind 936 00:46:33,480 --> 00:46:36,640 Speaker 1: of odd stuff that they had. Him doing they were 937 00:46:36,680 --> 00:46:40,000 Speaker 1: preparing him to, play basketball but they were also breaking 938 00:46:40,000 --> 00:46:45,360 Speaker 1: his body in. The, process sure my wife was listening 939 00:46:45,360 --> 00:46:49,120 Speaker 1: to a podcast, yesterday about, you know how women can 940 00:46:49,200 --> 00:46:51,120 Speaker 1: stay in shape as they get a little bit older 941 00:46:51,560 --> 00:46:53,640 Speaker 1: and keep their muscle tone up and all that kind. 942 00:46:53,680 --> 00:46:56,399 Speaker 1: Of stuff and one of the things that, this woman 943 00:46:56,440 --> 00:46:59,640 Speaker 1: who seems like she's pretty on, the level was suggesting, is, 944 00:46:59,640 --> 00:47:01,279 Speaker 1: like dude you got to do more. Weight training you 945 00:47:01,320 --> 00:47:04,160 Speaker 1: can't do cardio, every day and that means not even to. 946 00:47:04,200 --> 00:47:06,880 Speaker 1: Lose weight your body can't handle it. That way and 947 00:47:06,920 --> 00:47:10,399 Speaker 1: it's the same THING like i admit Personally that i'm 948 00:47:10,400 --> 00:47:12,440 Speaker 1: on the bike way too often. THESE days i used, 949 00:47:12,480 --> 00:47:14,200 Speaker 1: to RUN but i have flat Feet and i've kind 950 00:47:14,200 --> 00:47:16,480 Speaker 1: of been advised by doctors not to do IT if 951 00:47:16,520 --> 00:47:17,880 Speaker 1: i still want to be able to play with my 952 00:47:18,000 --> 00:47:21,719 Speaker 1: kids for too many, more years because it's just going 953 00:47:21,760 --> 00:47:24,560 Speaker 1: to continue to battle my knees and rough. Them Up 954 00:47:24,600 --> 00:47:26,120 Speaker 1: so i've had to kind of change UP what. I 955 00:47:26,160 --> 00:47:28,040 Speaker 1: do But now i'm on the bike almost, every DAY 956 00:47:28,239 --> 00:47:31,480 Speaker 1: and i wonder if, that is, you know actually doing 957 00:47:31,640 --> 00:47:33,640 Speaker 1: more harmed and GOOD that i need to kind. Of 958 00:47:33,719 --> 00:47:36,320 Speaker 1: differentiate but one of the things that you have heard 959 00:47:36,400 --> 00:47:40,719 Speaker 1: increasingly in youth sports is don't just specialize in, one 960 00:47:40,760 --> 00:47:44,160 Speaker 1: sport like play multiple things that work different parts of, 961 00:47:44,200 --> 00:47:48,279 Speaker 1: your body that enable different kinds of movement that, you know. 962 00:47:48,400 --> 00:47:51,240 Speaker 1: Utilized FLEXIBILITY like i played tennis that was my sport. 963 00:47:51,280 --> 00:47:54,839 Speaker 1: Growing up IT'S what i played in. High school and, 964 00:47:55,520 --> 00:47:58,080 Speaker 1: you know there's a lot of fitness, involved there but 965 00:47:58,200 --> 00:48:00,480 Speaker 1: it's a certain kind. Of fitness you got to be 966 00:48:00,520 --> 00:48:03,360 Speaker 1: able to mix. That up and so that kind of 967 00:48:03,360 --> 00:48:06,080 Speaker 1: goes hand in hand with the Thing that i've noticed from, 968 00:48:06,120 --> 00:48:10,719 Speaker 1: just eyesight and that is one fairly common denominator to 969 00:48:10,840 --> 00:48:14,799 Speaker 1: me in a lot Of these achilles situations that we've 970 00:48:14,800 --> 00:48:18,200 Speaker 1: seen in recent years IN the nba is these dudes 971 00:48:18,239 --> 00:48:21,719 Speaker 1: don't seem like they have soccer, player, calves right they 972 00:48:21,719 --> 00:48:26,200 Speaker 1: don't have tennis, player calves and that doesn't mean that 973 00:48:26,320 --> 00:48:28,840 Speaker 1: they should. Have those there are different it's a different, 974 00:48:28,880 --> 00:48:32,879 Speaker 1: skill set but the kind of explosiveness and the like 975 00:48:33,120 --> 00:48:36,680 Speaker 1: just kind of force and pressure that they are putting 976 00:48:37,480 --> 00:48:40,040 Speaker 1: because they are elevating into the air and they're landing 977 00:48:40,080 --> 00:48:42,480 Speaker 1: on a hard wooden, floor repeatedly and of course they're 978 00:48:42,520 --> 00:48:45,440 Speaker 1: running at a, high speed change, in direction, you know 979 00:48:45,520 --> 00:48:49,000 Speaker 1: spinning all of those kinds. Of things it just feels 980 00:48:49,040 --> 00:48:50,759 Speaker 1: like a lot of these dudes look like they don't do. 981 00:48:50,840 --> 00:48:53,960 Speaker 1: Much legwork and this, is somebody this is coming from 982 00:48:53,960 --> 00:48:55,759 Speaker 1: somebody that worked in pro wrestling for a long time 983 00:48:55,800 --> 00:48:58,200 Speaker 1: and there were dudes that cared nothing about anything but their, 984 00:48:58,280 --> 00:49:01,640 Speaker 1: upper body and they were wondering why their legs were 985 00:49:01,680 --> 00:49:04,560 Speaker 1: always shot or they were always out of action for 986 00:49:04,600 --> 00:49:06,760 Speaker 1: three four months at a time because they had something 987 00:49:06,760 --> 00:49:08,400 Speaker 1: going on with. Their legs, it's like because you're not 988 00:49:08,440 --> 00:49:11,719 Speaker 1: paying attention to them, because cosmetically it doesn't show up. 989 00:49:11,760 --> 00:49:14,600 Speaker 1: As much so you're just not that's not the thing's 990 00:49:14,600 --> 00:49:16,880 Speaker 1: gonna make you money in the, short term so you're 991 00:49:17,120 --> 00:49:19,600 Speaker 1: much more focused on. The aesthetics now it's not quite 992 00:49:19,600 --> 00:49:21,640 Speaker 1: the same IN, the NBA but i do think a 993 00:49:21,640 --> 00:49:24,799 Speaker 1: lot of these guys Just don't they, look spindly like 994 00:49:24,840 --> 00:49:28,880 Speaker 1: their legs just don't look fully developed and worked ON 995 00:49:29,320 --> 00:49:32,560 Speaker 1: because i think the specialization in the way that they 996 00:49:32,680 --> 00:49:36,680 Speaker 1: train doesn't necessarily put an emphasis. On that and that's just, 997 00:49:36,760 --> 00:49:40,200 Speaker 1: my eyes that's That is that could be a one thousand. 998 00:49:40,239 --> 00:49:43,160 Speaker 1: Percent wrong it's just my. Own, THEORY yeah i. 999 00:49:43,160 --> 00:49:46,800 Speaker 2: Think one as far as the specialization, Is concerned i've 1000 00:49:46,840 --> 00:49:49,160 Speaker 2: heard other people, suggest THAT and, I listen i think 1001 00:49:49,200 --> 00:49:52,759 Speaker 2: there's something to. It is, you know it's. It's one 1002 00:49:52,840 --> 00:49:56,760 Speaker 2: it's it's just, you know playing just probably too. MANY games, 1003 00:49:56,800 --> 00:49:58,880 Speaker 2: i mean, everybody knows, you KNOW the. Aau culture you 1004 00:49:58,880 --> 00:50:03,080 Speaker 2: play three games in. A day, This THAT so i 1005 00:50:03,120 --> 00:50:05,359 Speaker 2: think there's definitely something. To THAT and i, do think 1006 00:50:05,440 --> 00:50:07,720 Speaker 2: like like, you said is that you play, different sports 1007 00:50:07,760 --> 00:50:10,439 Speaker 2: you not only learn, different skills but you use different 1008 00:50:10,520 --> 00:50:13,640 Speaker 2: muscles all. Of that the only THING that i can 1009 00:50:13,719 --> 00:50:17,040 Speaker 2: SAY that i think really makes sense to me as 1010 00:50:17,040 --> 00:50:19,880 Speaker 2: to why we've seen an increase the last couple YEARS 1011 00:50:21,239 --> 00:50:25,800 Speaker 2: is i do think the game is played so much 1012 00:50:26,000 --> 00:50:30,480 Speaker 2: further out on. Both ends and, you, know listen we 1013 00:50:30,719 --> 00:50:33,680 Speaker 2: all WATCH That, nba finals all five guys on pretty 1014 00:50:33,719 --> 00:50:35,960 Speaker 2: much both teams can shoot, the, Three right so you 1015 00:50:36,000 --> 00:50:39,160 Speaker 2: know You're Guarding ched holmgren and twenty years ago he's seven, 1016 00:50:39,200 --> 00:50:41,160 Speaker 2: foot two he's not leaving more than five feet from. 1017 00:50:41,160 --> 00:50:44,080 Speaker 2: The basket well now he's twenty two feet out and 1018 00:50:44,160 --> 00:50:45,560 Speaker 2: you know you're caught up on a pick and you're 1019 00:50:45,600 --> 00:50:48,040 Speaker 2: trying to catch up, with them, you know three feet 1020 00:50:48,120 --> 00:50:50,879 Speaker 2: behind the three, point line and it's a lot of ground. 1021 00:50:50,920 --> 00:50:53,319 Speaker 2: To COVER so i have heard, that theory and THAT 1022 00:50:53,360 --> 00:50:56,440 Speaker 2: one i do think makes sense. To me And like 1023 00:50:56,680 --> 00:50:59,360 Speaker 2: i'll just ask, YOU This, J, mart like have You 1024 00:50:59,480 --> 00:51:01,359 Speaker 2: ever i'm sure sure.

Basketball game 1026 00:51:04,280 --> 00:51:06,920 Speaker 2: and the ONLY reason i ask Is because i'm not 1027 00:51:06,920 --> 00:51:09,560 Speaker 2: saying it in a. Condescending way but it's like until 1028 00:51:09,600 --> 00:51:13,560 Speaker 2: your court side and you see how big these, guys, 1029 00:51:13,680 --> 00:51:17,960 Speaker 2: are yeah and how fast, they move like, it is 1030 00:51:18,040 --> 00:51:20,000 Speaker 2: it is like kind. OF crazy, I mean i'm going 1031 00:51:20,000 --> 00:51:22,040 Speaker 2: off on a side, tangent here but it's like how 1032 00:51:22,080 --> 00:51:25,120 Speaker 2: often do you meet just somebody that's just like six' seven? 1033 00:51:25,360 --> 00:51:28,120 Speaker 2: In real? Life you know and now it's like they're 1034 00:51:28,200 --> 00:51:30,879 Speaker 2: they're playing full. Speed and, whatever you know we can 1035 00:51:30,920 --> 00:51:33,759 Speaker 2: make fun of HOW HOW often ni nba guys, play 1036 00:51:33,800 --> 00:51:36,320 Speaker 2: and lowman but but it's like they're. Going full speed 1037 00:51:36,400 --> 00:51:38,560 Speaker 2: now they got to guard twenty two to. Twenty three feet, 1038 00:51:38,800 --> 00:51:41,239 Speaker 2: they're you know they're they're playing out to twenty, two 1039 00:51:41,280 --> 00:51:44,360 Speaker 2: twenty two twenty three feet and the speed and power with. 1040 00:51:44,400 --> 00:51:46,560 Speaker 2: Which they're playing and then maybe it is some of 1041 00:51:46,560 --> 00:51:48,359 Speaker 2: the stuff that you said as well with with. HOW 1042 00:51:48,400 --> 00:51:51,440 Speaker 2: they're training i just to me that one passes the 1043 00:51:51,440 --> 00:51:53,920 Speaker 2: smell test to me of the game is just played 1044 00:51:53,960 --> 00:51:56,560 Speaker 2: so much further out on the court that maybe that 1045 00:51:56,600 --> 00:51:57,319 Speaker 2: has something to do with. 1046 00:51:57,360 --> 00:51:59,319 Speaker 1: It, AS well YEAH i mean i, THINK there's something 1047 00:51:59,360 --> 00:52:02,239 Speaker 1: i mean that makes it, ton of, sense and, Yeah, 1048 00:52:02,239 --> 00:52:05,160 Speaker 1: you're right like you don't get a sense of the 1049 00:52:05,239 --> 00:52:09,120 Speaker 1: speed and the size until you're either courtside or if 1050 00:52:09,120 --> 00:52:11,239 Speaker 1: you haven't ever done THIS for an nfl game or a, 1051 00:52:11,239 --> 00:52:13,880 Speaker 1: college football Game it's very you can't DUPLICATE, it on 1052 00:52:13,960 --> 00:52:16,000 Speaker 1: tv and you can't even duplicate it from the two 1053 00:52:16,120 --> 00:52:19,719 Speaker 1: hundred level of whatever stadium you're in when you. Were, 1054 00:52:19,719 --> 00:52:22,680 Speaker 1: STANDING there like i remember THE moment when i realized 1055 00:52:22,960 --> 00:52:27,399 Speaker 1: just how different a universe pro sports is or high level. 1056 00:52:27,400 --> 00:52:29,920 Speaker 1: College football is AND it's when I was covering ALABAMA 1057 00:52:29,960 --> 00:52:34,279 Speaker 1: football Against Wku, against western kentucky. MY alma mater i 1058 00:52:34,320 --> 00:52:37,200 Speaker 1: was there. AT the, time i, was you, know IN 1059 00:52:37,280 --> 00:52:39,440 Speaker 1: broadcasting so i was covering a Game For the sporting 1060 00:52:39,480 --> 00:52:42,240 Speaker 1: SHOW and so i was on The Field at Brian 1061 00:52:42,320 --> 00:52:45,759 Speaker 1: denny at alabama and this do walk by that was, 1062 00:52:45,880 --> 00:52:49,880 Speaker 1: absolutely JUST monstrous and i was just kind of like what, in, The, 1063 00:52:49,960 --> 00:52:52,759 Speaker 1: world man like who? Was this guy it was The? 1064 00:52:52,800 --> 00:52:56,640 Speaker 1: Punter for? Alabama WHOA really and i was like it 1065 00:52:56,760 --> 00:52:59,080 Speaker 1: just caught me. COMPLETELY off guard i, was just? Like 1066 00:52:59,120 --> 00:53:01,520 Speaker 1: WHOA that like i saw THE jersey and i realized, 1067 00:53:01,520 --> 00:53:03,360 Speaker 1: who he was but it was just, kind, of like 1068 00:53:03,400 --> 00:53:07,799 Speaker 1: wait a sec man like The punter for alabama just 1069 00:53:08,080 --> 00:53:10,200 Speaker 1: like made me do, a double take like that dude 1070 00:53:10,320 --> 00:53:12,759 Speaker 1: is way too big to. Be out here. That's not 1071 00:53:12,920 --> 00:53:15,160 Speaker 1: fair but it turns out, he's the punter so it's 1072 00:53:15,200 --> 00:53:18,160 Speaker 1: like it's just. A different universe and, to, your point 1073 00:53:18,239 --> 00:53:20,640 Speaker 1: yes the pace has, changed A bit although i mean 1074 00:53:20,680 --> 00:53:22,440 Speaker 1: they played it a lot faster paced back in the 1075 00:53:22,520 --> 00:53:26,080 Speaker 1: day people give, them credit for, but you're right the 1076 00:53:26,160 --> 00:53:28,680 Speaker 1: game was played a lot more on the inside. THAN 1077 00:53:28,680 --> 00:53:32,640 Speaker 1: the outside i, think that's true and, that you know 1078 00:53:32,760 --> 00:53:37,280 Speaker 1: you got bigger guys whose bodies are not really meant 1079 00:53:37,840 --> 00:53:41,279 Speaker 1: to play twenty five feet, from the basket and the 1080 00:53:41,360 --> 00:53:43,200 Speaker 1: high pick and roll game and some of that kind 1081 00:53:43,239 --> 00:53:46,200 Speaker 1: of stuff may. CONTRIBUTE to it i definitely think that 1082 00:53:46,280 --> 00:53:49,719 Speaker 1: there is that there is. Something TO that but i 1083 00:53:49,719 --> 00:53:52,640 Speaker 1: also think like one of THE reasons why i came 1084 00:53:52,640 --> 00:53:55,080 Speaker 1: out and SAID After the nba draft YEARS ago That 1085 00:53:55,160 --> 00:53:57,480 Speaker 1: I thought john morant was going to have a better 1086 00:53:57,520 --> 00:54:00,000 Speaker 1: Pro Career than zion williamson was based on THE fact 1087 00:54:00,080 --> 00:54:01,960 Speaker 1: that I didn't think zion's body was going to hold 1088 00:54:02,000 --> 00:54:04,080 Speaker 1: up to THE game that i saw him. Playing, in 1089 00:54:04,120 --> 00:54:06,439 Speaker 1: college sure and what, HE was like i just don't 1090 00:54:06,440 --> 00:54:08,520 Speaker 1: feel it's like, or his legs are his knees going. 1091 00:54:08,560 --> 00:54:10,600 Speaker 1: To hold up he's got a, ton of weight but 1092 00:54:10,719 --> 00:54:14,560 Speaker 1: he explodes into the AIR like and i just don't 1093 00:54:14,600 --> 00:54:16,960 Speaker 1: know how that is going. To WORK out so i 1094 00:54:16,960 --> 00:54:21,040 Speaker 1: THINK there's probably i don't know that it's one factor that. 1095 00:54:21,520 --> 00:54:25,600 Speaker 1: Contributes to it it's. PROBABLY different things i Don't Know 1096 00:54:25,719 --> 00:54:30,840 Speaker 1: if adam SILVER'S Robotic controlled ai skynet or whatever is 1097 00:54:30,880 --> 00:54:33,360 Speaker 1: going to be able to, Determine it either but it 1098 00:54:33,440 --> 00:54:35,560 Speaker 1: is something that they need to try. And FIGURE out 1099 00:54:35,680 --> 00:54:37,799 Speaker 1: and i don't think it's a low, Management THING either 1100 00:54:37,960 --> 00:54:40,719 Speaker 1: like i don't think this needs to then float. BACK to, 1101 00:54:41,200 --> 00:54:44,799 Speaker 1: that i mean they've already accommodated the players. SO very 1102 00:54:44,880 --> 00:54:46,879 Speaker 1: Much I know draymond green's come out in the last 1103 00:54:47,040 --> 00:54:49,120 Speaker 1: couple of days and said there need to be fewer games. 1104 00:54:49,160 --> 00:54:52,480 Speaker 1: AND all this i feel like they've done about all 1105 00:54:52,520 --> 00:54:55,120 Speaker 1: they can do in a lot of these in a lot. 1106 00:54:55,120 --> 00:54:59,359 Speaker 1: Of these situations it's just it's, a rough deal and 1107 00:54:59,400 --> 00:55:02,600 Speaker 1: you certainly for it to happen, on that stage, in 1108 00:55:02,680 --> 00:55:06,880 Speaker 1: that moment it's just it paints a grim picture of 1109 00:55:06,960 --> 00:55:09,240 Speaker 1: how difficult it CAN be for nba players. 1110 00:55:09,239 --> 00:55:13,040 Speaker 2: To, stay, healthy yeah no there's not, much to, it 1111 00:55:13,080 --> 00:55:15,080 Speaker 2: and listen, AND you know i know we poke it 1112 00:55:15,120 --> 00:55:16,799 Speaker 2: at him so, over A lot but i think the 1113 00:55:16,840 --> 00:55:18,319 Speaker 2: one thing you could say about him is if he 1114 00:55:18,400 --> 00:55:21,560 Speaker 2: had an Answer to, THE achilles thing i think. HE'D 1115 00:55:21,560 --> 00:55:25,560 Speaker 2: do it i don't think having fewer games is the 1116 00:55:25,600 --> 00:55:28,279 Speaker 2: answer unless players are willing to, give back salary which 1117 00:55:28,320 --> 00:55:30,320 Speaker 2: is never, going to happen and so they got to. 1118 00:55:30,320 --> 00:55:33,880 Speaker 2: Figure it out but. It's Certainly interesting tyrese haliburton among 1119 00:55:34,320 --> 00:55:39,320 Speaker 2: several Players with, major Achilles Injuries, including Jason Tatum, including 1120 00:55:39,400 --> 00:55:43,880 Speaker 2: damian lillard Which, means The, bucks the Pacers and the 1121 00:55:43,920 --> 00:55:47,960 Speaker 2: celtics are all going into, next season shorthanded which also 1122 00:55:48,080 --> 00:55:53,239 Speaker 2: MEANS the, next i mean in theory they could. Be the, 1123 00:55:53,280 --> 00:55:56,839 Speaker 2: favorite of course they don't, have a coach but an 1124 00:55:56,880 --> 00:55:59,080 Speaker 2: interesting name certainly popped up over the last twenty four. 1125 00:55:59,120 --> 00:56:02,000 Speaker 2: Hours or so we'll.

Times A Year in, don staley's case 1348 01:07:46,400 --> 01:07:48,920 Speaker 2: you're maybe losing. Once or twice i'll, also say this 1349 01:07:48,960 --> 01:07:50,320 Speaker 2: and THIS is where i will be a. LITTLE bit 1350 01:07:50,320 --> 01:07:55,640 Speaker 2: critical i don't think there is anyone who has been 1351 01:07:55,720 --> 01:07:59,880 Speaker 2: treated with more kid gloves in, all of Sports. And 1352 01:08:00,080 --> 01:08:03,560 Speaker 2: on staley, in other words she is the Only person 1353 01:08:03,600 --> 01:08:07,040 Speaker 2: that i'm aware of that gets one hundred percent praise, 1354 01:08:07,080 --> 01:08:11,760 Speaker 2: when it's deserved and you cannot criticize her when. Things 1355 01:08:11,800 --> 01:08:14,760 Speaker 2: GO bad like i can say from my, own personal, 1356 01:08:14,760 --> 01:08:17,240 Speaker 2: Experience you know i've tweeted out a couple negative things 1357 01:08:17,240 --> 01:08:19,680 Speaker 2: and it's how can you say? That about this and 1358 01:08:19,760 --> 01:08:20,120 Speaker 2: how can? 1359 01:08:20,200 --> 01:08:20,280 Speaker 3: You? 1360 01:08:20,360 --> 01:08:23,200 Speaker 2: Do that dada, AND it's like i actually think it's, 1361 01:08:23,200 --> 01:08:26,320 Speaker 2: The greatest compliment, let's be honest the greatest compliment you 1362 01:08:26,320 --> 01:08:29,000 Speaker 2: can give. A female coach i'm holding her to the 1363 01:08:29,040 --> 01:08:33,599 Speaker 2: Same Standard, as Dan Hurley, as John Caliperry, as tom. 1364 01:08:33,640 --> 01:08:36,639 Speaker 2: Thibodeau as whoever and there's been a, couple of, TIMES 1365 01:08:36,680 --> 01:08:38,479 Speaker 2: you know i mean you go back to three or. 1366 01:08:38,520 --> 01:08:40,960 Speaker 2: FOUR years ago i guess it was, three seasons ago 1367 01:08:41,560 --> 01:08:44,920 Speaker 2: that game where they were Heavily Favored against kaitlyn Clark in, 1368 01:08:44,960 --> 01:08:48,280 Speaker 2: the Final Four and caitlyn clark. Absolutely, destroyed them now 1369 01:08:48,320 --> 01:08:50,800 Speaker 2: the following year they won, the national championship but that 1370 01:08:51,000 --> 01:08:53,559 Speaker 2: year it was like they were. The overwhelming favorite they. 1371 01:08:53,560 --> 01:08:55,880 Speaker 2: Had no answers part of It Was, about caitlyn clark 1372 01:08:55,920 --> 01:08:58,160 Speaker 2: but part Of It was south carolina, in show Up. 1373 01:08:58,200 --> 01:09:00,920 Speaker 2: READY to play i remember being critical at the how can? 1374 01:09:00,960 --> 01:09:03,120 Speaker 2: You be critical they? Were thirty, eight, it's like yeah 1375 01:09:03,120 --> 01:09:05,680 Speaker 2: but they were. The overwhelming favorites they didn't Close it 1376 01:09:05,680 --> 01:09:10,479 Speaker 2: out This, year against yukon they got destroyed and looked completely, 1377 01:09:10,560 --> 01:09:12,760 Speaker 2: unprepared to Play and maybe yuka was just that much 1378 01:09:12,800 --> 01:09:16,280 Speaker 2: better blah. Blah BLAH whatever but i do think there, 1379 01:09:16,360 --> 01:09:19,639 Speaker 2: is SOMETHING too like I haven't really i've heard pretty 1380 01:09:19,720 --> 01:09:22,800 Speaker 2: much every coach in Every sport from i'm just trying 1381 01:09:22,840 --> 01:09:25,680 Speaker 2: to think off the top. Of, my head uh, You know, 1382 01:09:27,240 --> 01:09:30,960 Speaker 2: Whatever Sean, McVeigh nick, sirianni i mean, you go on 1383 01:09:32,040 --> 01:09:34,439 Speaker 2: has anyone ever like Really Gone? After don stanley and 1384 01:09:34,439 --> 01:09:37,080 Speaker 2: maybe she doesn't need to be or deserved to be 1385 01:09:37,080 --> 01:09:39,720 Speaker 2: because her teams, are SO good but i would be 1386 01:09:39,840 --> 01:09:42,280 Speaker 2: curious how she would handle things on like a five 1387 01:09:42,360 --> 01:09:44,840 Speaker 2: game losing STREAK that every nba team is going, to 1388 01:09:44,880 --> 01:09:48,280 Speaker 2: INEVITABLY have because i don't believe she's, taken THAT criticism 1389 01:09:48,360 --> 01:09:50,439 Speaker 2: and i think she's actually frankly largely been treated. 1390 01:09:50,479 --> 01:09:54,400 Speaker 1: With kid gloves that's. AN interesting point i also think 1391 01:09:54,640 --> 01:09:57,200 Speaker 1: to Your Point, ABOUT dan hurley i think, you can 1392 01:09:57,240 --> 01:10:01,120 Speaker 1: go you can stay at the same sk but You 1393 01:10:01,160 --> 01:10:05,840 Speaker 1: can say gino's never. Gone There either and geno's another 1394 01:10:05,920 --> 01:10:08,280 Speaker 1: dude that tet a recruiting advantage for a long Long 1395 01:10:08,360 --> 01:10:11,000 Speaker 1: time at yukon because, once he built, what he built 1396 01:10:11,560 --> 01:10:15,479 Speaker 1: everybody wanted To go To yukon Pat. Summit at tennessee same. 1397 01:10:15,520 --> 01:10:19,559 Speaker 1: Kind of Deal like if gino has never like you've 1398 01:10:19,600 --> 01:10:21,960 Speaker 1: never really hear his name attached to just, About anything 1399 01:10:21,960 --> 01:10:25,720 Speaker 1: else like he's just. Where he is his, Legacy is 1400 01:10:25,760 --> 01:10:29,200 Speaker 1: set like if that's never been talked, about before there 1401 01:10:29,320 --> 01:10:33,479 Speaker 1: Then Why does don stawey's name? Pop up now and 1402 01:10:33,520 --> 01:10:35,320 Speaker 1: then the other thing is this and this would just 1403 01:10:35,360 --> 01:10:39,400 Speaker 1: be kind of. Another discourse situation but what happens when 1404 01:10:39,400 --> 01:10:42,800 Speaker 1: One of the knicks players disagrees with her and they 1405 01:10:42,840 --> 01:10:46,320 Speaker 1: have a moment? On the sideline how? Is? That covered 1406 01:10:46,320 --> 01:10:49,160 Speaker 1: now eventually that's going to be. Something that happens but 1407 01:10:49,200 --> 01:10:51,479 Speaker 1: that's going to be part of this and it's going 1408 01:10:51,560 --> 01:10:56,640 Speaker 1: to be absolutely infuriating on all sides the way that. 1409 01:10:56,680 --> 01:10:59,360 Speaker 1: It is discussed, at that point you talk. About kid 1410 01:10:59,400 --> 01:11:02,320 Speaker 1: gloves if you go from the kid gloves that you 1411 01:11:02,479 --> 01:11:05,880 Speaker 1: Are Assessing for don staley to this point in, her 1412 01:11:05,880 --> 01:11:09,720 Speaker 1: professional career she's Going To the.

Going 1688 01:25:47,680 --> 01:25:49,200 Speaker 2: to get now it was either gonna be a team 1689 01:25:49,200 --> 01:25:51,760 Speaker 2: that he planned on going to and wanted, to go to. 1690 01:25:51,880 --> 01:25:54,400 Speaker 2: Or it wasn't but he, was always reporting and so 1691 01:25:55,400 --> 01:25:58,160 Speaker 2: he did.

The planet does but let's work. Under 1797 01:31:50,400 --> 01:31:56,599 Speaker 2: THAT assumption what i would say is anytime that you're 1798 01:31:56,680 --> 01:32:00,120 Speaker 2: taking a victory lap to again to the point that 1799 01:32:00,160 --> 01:32:03,720 Speaker 2: you made that the basketball god somehow rewarded you on 1800 01:32:03,920 --> 01:32:07,880 Speaker 2: something that had a two percent, chance of happening it 1801 01:32:07,920 --> 01:32:12,880 Speaker 2: doesn't it doesn't matter, what it is like if you 1802 01:32:13,080 --> 01:32:15,920 Speaker 2: think you deserve some sort of pat on the back 1803 01:32:16,520 --> 01:32:21,240 Speaker 2: because something that had a two percent chance of. Happening actually, happened, 1804 01:32:21,240 --> 01:32:23,479 Speaker 2: YOU know again i don't know that there's a great 1805 01:32:23,479 --> 01:32:25,160 Speaker 2: analogy off the top, of my head, but it's, like 1806 01:32:26,360 --> 01:32:28,919 Speaker 2: you know you could be playing a hand of poker 1807 01:32:29,520 --> 01:32:32,400 Speaker 2: and go all in and there's one card in the 1808 01:32:32,479 --> 01:32:35,679 Speaker 2: deck that will win. You the hand like, it might 1809 01:32:35,880 --> 01:32:39,120 Speaker 2: happen but it doesn't mean that it was the right 1810 01:32:39,160 --> 01:32:41,800 Speaker 2: strategic play or it was smarter you're some sort of 1811 01:32:41,840 --> 01:32:43,840 Speaker 2: genius And so like that's the part that, trips me, 1812 01:32:43,920 --> 01:32:46,880 Speaker 2: up is like like you're somehow thinking that you're being 1813 01:32:46,920 --> 01:32:49,960 Speaker 2: rewarded for doing something that we all just universally think 1814 01:32:50,120 --> 01:32:53,160 Speaker 2: is idiotic and, so and again that's working under the 1815 01:32:53,200 --> 01:32:56,639 Speaker 2: assumption that there was nothing nefarious about, how this Happened 1816 01:32:56,920 --> 01:33:00,840 Speaker 2: And that nico harrison truly believes that he got Market Value. 1817 01:33:00,880 --> 01:33:04,400 Speaker 2: For luka daci it's TWO things that i think most 1818 01:33:04,479 --> 01:33:07,120 Speaker 2: basketball people don't believe are actually the case in either. 1819 01:33:07,160 --> 01:33:12,040 Speaker 1: One, OF them yeah, i mean again it's just like fortune. 1820 01:33:12,160 --> 01:33:16,200 Speaker 1: Favors the, bold, it's like no you just you fell 1821 01:33:16,320 --> 01:33:19,439 Speaker 1: backwards into some, kind OF luck which i put in 1822 01:33:19,520 --> 01:33:21,760 Speaker 1: air quotes with my EYES closed while i said, it 1823 01:33:21,760 --> 01:33:26,200 Speaker 1: OUT loud like i said, this TO you and i 1824 01:33:26,240 --> 01:33:28,200 Speaker 1: have no QUALMS in saying i know some people will 1825 01:33:28,240 --> 01:33:30,720 Speaker 1: say it's just completely ridiculous and over the.

Things 1987 01:42:18,880 --> 01:42:23,040 Speaker 1: like that he, has made errors like forgetting like calling 1988 01:42:23,080 --> 01:42:28,360 Speaker 1: out guys for their for not showing UP during the 1989 01:42:28,439 --> 01:42:31,280 Speaker 1: nfl season for their teams that don't even play on, 1990 01:42:31,320 --> 01:42:34,160 Speaker 1: those teams anymore like. Stuff like that like he's just, 1991 01:42:34,200 --> 01:42:37,439 Speaker 1: stretched too thin and there's no possible way for him 1992 01:42:37,479 --> 01:42:40,000 Speaker 1: to watch and know all of. What he's doing that's 1993 01:42:40,040 --> 01:42:43,200 Speaker 1: why you get caught Up with the solitaire deal and all. These, 1994 01:42:43,200 --> 01:42:46,960 Speaker 1: other deals yeah but. Here's the thing because of, who 1995 01:42:47,000 --> 01:42:49,120 Speaker 1: he is right and because of the power that he 1996 01:42:49,200 --> 01:42:51,479 Speaker 1: wields where he Can Get a max kellerman fired if, 1997 01:42:51,479 --> 01:42:53,519 Speaker 1: he wants to or whatever it is that he, wants 1998 01:42:53,560 --> 01:42:56,000 Speaker 1: to do he can. Pretty much do, at this point 1999 01:42:57,160 --> 01:42:59,120 Speaker 1: he could have told them he wouldn't, do the draft 2000 01:43:00,120 --> 01:43:02,599 Speaker 1: which means to me he wanted to do the draft 2001 01:43:03,280 --> 01:43:08,599 Speaker 1: because he can't get, enough of himself and you're right 2002 01:43:08,760 --> 01:43:12,439 Speaker 1: that it's not the talent's fault because of the situation they. 2003 01:43:12,520 --> 01:43:15,320 Speaker 1: Were put in they shouldn't have been, in that position, 2004 01:43:17,800 --> 01:43:22,599 Speaker 1: but they were, and as such you got an unwatchable Draft, 2005 01:43:22,600 --> 01:43:25,320 Speaker 1: that was look it was already a struggle because we 2006 01:43:25,479 --> 01:43:28,599 Speaker 1: just don't know enough about most, of these guys and 2007 01:43:28,640 --> 01:43:31,160 Speaker 1: so you needed The frand for shilla's of the world 2008 01:43:31,200 --> 01:43:34,160 Speaker 1: back in, the day Yep or certainly billis and, guys 2009 01:43:34,200 --> 01:43:36,320 Speaker 1: like that to kind of break this down and tell 2010 01:43:36,400 --> 01:43:38,120 Speaker 1: us what we need to. Know About them for Scilla 2011 01:43:38,280 --> 01:43:41,800 Speaker 1: was for shilla right now would be even more useful 2012 01:43:42,080 --> 01:43:44,000 Speaker 1: because he was always the guy that would tell you 2013 01:43:44,080 --> 01:43:46,639 Speaker 1: about what was happening overseas and paid attention, to all 2014 01:43:46,680 --> 01:43:50,479 Speaker 1: that and that's become so CRITICAL to. The NBA. Game 2015 01:43:50,720 --> 01:43:53,120 Speaker 1: steven a smith. Could, do nothing again this is the 2016 01:43:53,160 --> 01:43:55,519 Speaker 1: guy that went on a Rant about the knicks coaching 2017 01:43:55,560 --> 01:43:57,439 Speaker 1: search in the MIDDLE Of the nba Draft when the 2018 01:43:57,479 --> 01:44:00,439 Speaker 1: knicks didn't even have a first. Round draft pick because 2019 01:44:00,520 --> 01:44:03,680 Speaker 1: that's the THING. That steven a, smith knows about and 2020 01:44:03,720 --> 01:44:05,880 Speaker 1: he's the one, that's on camera and so he's going 2021 01:44:05,960 --> 01:44:10,080 Speaker 1: to do. It his way it was a disservice to 2022 01:44:10,120 --> 01:44:12,880 Speaker 1: the guys that, were being drafted because we learned virtually nothing. 2023 01:44:12,920 --> 01:44:19,280 Speaker 1: About them whatsoever it was a testament to what sports. 2024 01:44:19,360 --> 01:44:23,760 Speaker 1: Media has become, this debate culture this extreme, hot take 2025 01:44:23,960 --> 01:44:27,519 Speaker 1: culture kind of.

And here's the thing he's going 2297 01:57:44,880 --> 01:57:47,840 Speaker 1: to a coach this time that's kind, of, a mad 2298 01:57:47,960 --> 01:57:51,320 Speaker 1: guy right a guy that has one big and a team. 2299 01:57:51,360 --> 01:57:56,120 Speaker 1: That is already winning so if, this thing doesn't work 2300 01:57:56,440 --> 01:57:58,240 Speaker 1: the stink is largely going. TO be, on, Him I 2301 01:57:58,280 --> 01:58:01,040 Speaker 1: think yeah and i think that's going to be about 2302 01:58:01,080 --> 01:58:03,400 Speaker 1: The End of, the kevin durant experiment or at least. 2303 01:58:03,400 --> 01:58:06,320 Speaker 1: It's going to be he's going to be in that 2304 01:58:06,440 --> 01:58:08,280 Speaker 1: territory where there's just not going to be a lot 2305 01:58:08,320 --> 01:58:10,680 Speaker 1: of people that are going to want. To bring that 2306 01:58:10,800 --> 01:58:13,920 Speaker 1: in and hopefully he knows that because we know we 2307 01:58:13,960 --> 01:58:16,240 Speaker 1: can what he can still. Do, as a baller now 2308 01:58:16,280 --> 01:58:18,880 Speaker 1: if his health deteriorates or whatever like that and he's not, 2309 01:58:18,920 --> 01:58:20,760 Speaker 1: able to stay healthy that's a bit. Of a different 2310 01:58:20,800 --> 01:58:23,440 Speaker 1: issue BUT that's another thing i will say In, TERMS 2311 01:58:23,480 --> 01:58:25,120 Speaker 1: of the rockets i didn't think they had to give 2312 01:58:25,200 --> 01:58:27,040 Speaker 1: up the world, to MAKE this happen so i can 2313 01:58:27,080 --> 01:58:28,800 Speaker 1: see why. You would do it they're one of, the, 2314 01:58:28,800 --> 01:58:32,320 Speaker 1: only teams where yeah maybe he's a guy that might 2315 01:58:32,360 --> 01:58:34,040 Speaker 1: be able to get you over the hump because you 2316 01:58:34,080 --> 01:58:36,840 Speaker 1: already have A lot there and i don't think you 2317 01:58:36,880 --> 01:58:38,960 Speaker 1: had to get rid of everything in your core. To 2318 01:58:39,040 --> 01:58:42,720 Speaker 1: pull this off but if this, does NOT work out 2319 01:58:42,880 --> 01:58:48,320 Speaker 1: then i think that largely the Discussions Of positivity surrounding 2320 01:58:48,400 --> 01:58:49,120 Speaker 1: kevin durant are. 2321 01:58:49,160 --> 01:58:49,240 Speaker 4: Going. 2322 01:58:49,320 --> 01:58:53,320 Speaker 2: To, Be OVER yeah no and, i think you KNOW 2323 01:58:53,480 --> 01:58:55,640 Speaker 2: it's funny because i think this was the one spot that. 2324 01:58:55,720 --> 01:59:00,320 Speaker 2: Actually did make sense, nice pieces around him and again 2325 01:59:00,360 --> 01:59:02,040 Speaker 2: you didn't have to give up a. TON to, Get 2326 01:59:02,120 --> 01:59:04,000 Speaker 2: Him i know jalen green's kind, of an emerging Guy. 2327 01:59:04,040 --> 01:59:05,360 Speaker 2: But you keep tom but. 2328 01:59:05,360 --> 01:59:07,560 Speaker 1: He's, kind OF inconsistent too and i think he was 2329 01:59:07,600 --> 01:59:11,160 Speaker 1: starting to kind of fall out of favor a bit. During, 2330 01:59:11,200 --> 01:59:12,000 Speaker 1: THE playoff run. 2331 01:59:12,200 --> 01:59:14,200 Speaker 2: No i don't disagree and the one thing too is 2332 01:59:14,240 --> 01:59:19,520 Speaker 2: they just. Very clearly needed scoring but the, COUNTER to, 2333 01:59:19,560 --> 01:59:22,160 Speaker 2: THAT is i mean i don't think They're. BETTER than 2334 01:59:22,200 --> 01:59:24,880 Speaker 2: the thunder i don't think They're. Better than, the nuggets 2335 01:59:28,320 --> 01:59:30,920 Speaker 2: you know Maybe, better than The lakers although the lakers 2336 01:59:30,920 --> 01:59:34,120 Speaker 2: are obviously going to make. Another move or, two so, 2337 01:59:34,160 --> 01:59:36,480 Speaker 2: it's just you know. It's one of those it felt. 2338 01:59:36,520 --> 01:59:38,720 Speaker 2: BIG in the moment i don't know, how big, IT is. 2339 01:59:41,640 --> 01:59:41,720 Speaker 1: But. 2340 01:59:41,800 --> 01:59:43,160 Speaker 2: Yeah i don't know it just it was just an 2341 01:59:43,200 --> 01:59:46,000 Speaker 2: interesting thing to kind of follow over, the last you know, 2342 01:59:46,080 --> 01:59:48,120 Speaker 2: ten days or so. Is that all unfolded so. 2343 01:59:48,360 --> 01:59:49,960 Speaker 1: It was about the one place he could go where 2344 01:59:50,000 --> 01:59:52,120 Speaker 1: it made. Some, Degree of sense yes. 2345 01:59:52,600 --> 01:59:54,520 Speaker 2: I'll say this too this might be a.
