Let's calm down. 86 00:04:37,760 --> 00:04:40,120 Speaker 2: But then, of course, as any coach does, you turn around, 87 00:04:40,200 --> 00:04:41,480 Speaker 2: look the other way and start chuckling. 88 00:04:41,560 --> 00:04:43,799 Speaker 1: To you, you gotta last. It's hysterical. 89 00:04:44,880 --> 00:04:48,240 Speaker 3: It's their personalities are being developed right now. 90 00:04:49,200 --> 00:04:53,160 Speaker 1: Championship. E Oh, yeah, that's what I'm living. 91 00:04:53,760 --> 00:04:56,039 Speaker 2: I might have to use I mean, I might just 92 00:04:56,440 --> 00:04:58,320 Speaker 2: borrow the nickname and give it to you. Here at 93 00:04:58,400 --> 00:05:02,080 Speaker 2: least for the next three hours. My goodness. Speaking of 94 00:05:02,080 --> 00:05:06,040 Speaker 2: a championship, we've all given it to the Denver Nuggets already, right, Like, 95 00:05:06,520 --> 00:05:08,520 Speaker 2: this is just going to be a big old snooze 96 00:05:08,560 --> 00:05:11,200 Speaker 2: and a big old yalld, we'll see, we've blown off 97 00:05:11,240 --> 00:05:14,359 Speaker 2: the Miami heat before. But I tell you what, this 98 00:05:14,440 --> 00:05:17,400 Speaker 2: is one thing I was thinking about with these Nuggets, 99 00:05:17,960 --> 00:05:20,159 Speaker 2: and I think this is the nature of sports. 100 00:05:20,160 --> 00:05:21,360 Speaker 1: You always hear people say, oh. 101 00:05:21,200 --> 00:05:24,200 Speaker 2: It's a copycat league, And what I think that also 102 00:05:24,360 --> 00:05:28,039 Speaker 2: often means is whoever wins, we all have to be 103 00:05:28,160 --> 00:05:33,080 Speaker 2: obsessed with how to beat that specific team. I have 104 00:05:33,120 --> 00:05:35,560 Speaker 2: a good buddy who I was over to this house 105 00:05:35,720 --> 00:05:37,760 Speaker 2: a week and a half ago and one of his 106 00:05:37,920 --> 00:05:40,799 Speaker 2: sons had done something very very different with his hair. 107 00:05:41,400 --> 00:05:45,000 Speaker 2: He'd asked for a different style and a different haircut 108 00:05:45,080 --> 00:05:47,120 Speaker 2: and the whole Hey, take a look at that. What's 109 00:05:47,160 --> 00:05:49,600 Speaker 2: going on there? Well, come to find out is because 110 00:05:49,960 --> 00:05:52,920 Speaker 2: what he was wearing before he went to school and 111 00:05:53,240 --> 00:05:53,919 Speaker 2: one other. 112 00:05:53,839 --> 00:05:56,560 Speaker 1: Kid made fun of the hair. That's it. 113 00:05:57,040 --> 00:06:00,400 Speaker 2: And that's all it takes. We got to go straight 114 00:06:00,440 --> 00:06:03,240 Speaker 2: to the barbershop and change the hair. And I'm like, 115 00:06:03,440 --> 00:06:06,960 Speaker 2: why are we obsessed with that? One kid who said 116 00:06:07,120 --> 00:06:10,160 Speaker 2: that one thing, and I want to say that right 117 00:06:10,200 --> 00:06:14,400 Speaker 2: now about the Denver Nuggets, because sure they're young, they've 118 00:06:14,400 --> 00:06:17,920 Speaker 2: got continuity. They've got the guy who's either the MVP 119 00:06:18,279 --> 00:06:20,520 Speaker 2: was supposed to be or what have you, whatever you 120 00:06:20,560 --> 00:06:23,839 Speaker 2: want to call him. He's he's incredibly hard to stop. 121 00:06:24,440 --> 00:06:27,720 Speaker 2: But uh, the world to me in the NBA right 122 00:06:27,760 --> 00:06:30,120 Speaker 2: now sounds like, well, that's the end of that. I 123 00:06:30,120 --> 00:06:32,440 Speaker 2: guess the Nuggets are gonna win the next three years 124 00:06:32,880 --> 00:06:35,600 Speaker 2: unless somebody can do something or somebody gets hurt. 125 00:06:35,960 --> 00:06:39,000 Speaker 1: And I'm like, why why do we do this every year? 126 00:06:39,080 --> 00:06:44,120 Speaker 2: Why can't we remember the journey that that is every 127 00:06:44,160 --> 00:06:47,560 Speaker 2: single year and how hard it is to repeat and 128 00:06:47,640 --> 00:06:52,520 Speaker 2: how things change every year. Like you know, you're you're 129 00:06:52,560 --> 00:06:55,840 Speaker 2: the fan of a basketball team. That's that was that 130 00:06:55,960 --> 00:06:59,000 Speaker 2: was the last team the Nuggets went through, and they've 131 00:06:59,000 --> 00:07:02,400 Speaker 2: got all kinds of space. Are you thinking they've got 132 00:07:02,400 --> 00:07:06,320 Speaker 2: to specifically build a team to beat Denver Nuggets or 133 00:07:06,320 --> 00:07:08,320 Speaker 2: do you want to you just want to put together 134 00:07:08,360 --> 00:07:08,839 Speaker 2: good basket. 135 00:07:08,920 --> 00:07:10,880 Speaker 3: You put the best team out there. Man, We're not 136 00:07:10,880 --> 00:07:13,360 Speaker 3: worried about that. You know, Denver Nuggets a good team. 137 00:07:13,440 --> 00:07:16,480 Speaker 3: They had our number as well as everybody's number in 138 00:07:16,480 --> 00:07:20,160 Speaker 3: the Western Conference being the number one seed. But we're 139 00:07:20,200 --> 00:07:23,680 Speaker 3: not about to build this thing around to stop Jokis. 140 00:07:24,520 --> 00:07:27,880 Speaker 3: We're gonna put a great team together. I believe this 141 00:07:27,960 --> 00:07:32,560 Speaker 3: offseason it's a lot of attractive free agents that I 142 00:07:32,600 --> 00:07:35,400 Speaker 3: think they could lynn take some of the pressure off 143 00:07:35,440 --> 00:07:36,960 Speaker 3: A d and Lebron James. 144 00:07:36,960 --> 00:07:38,280 Speaker 1: So we're gonna go from there. 145 00:07:39,720 --> 00:07:42,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, And I think that that's true for a lot 146 00:07:42,640 --> 00:07:45,320 Speaker 2: of basketball teams, particularly if you're going to be looking 147 00:07:45,360 --> 00:07:50,680 Speaker 2: at that Western Conference. You could convince me based on 148 00:07:50,720 --> 00:07:53,280 Speaker 2: the way things are going. You could convince me next 149 00:07:53,360 --> 00:07:58,040 Speaker 2: year of the Denver Nuggets. You could convince me of 150 00:07:58,080 --> 00:08:02,640 Speaker 2: your Lakers. You don't need to convince me of my Warriors. 151 00:08:03,200 --> 00:08:03,760 Speaker 1: I don't know. 152 00:08:03,760 --> 00:08:06,440 Speaker 2: Exactly which sway things are gonna go for the Clippers 153 00:08:06,640 --> 00:08:11,840 Speaker 2: and Sons veteran injured teams, but could it go a 154 00:08:11,840 --> 00:08:15,920 Speaker 2: certain way. Don't forget those baby Sacramento Kings. I find 155 00:08:15,920 --> 00:08:19,560 Speaker 2: them intriguing. What if Zion plays? What are the Pelicans 156 00:08:19,600 --> 00:08:23,000 Speaker 2: gonna do? But the one team I'm leaving out is 157 00:08:23,080 --> 00:08:26,600 Speaker 2: actually the reason I'm saying things the way I'm saying. 158 00:08:27,000 --> 00:08:28,720 Speaker 1: Look at those Memphis Grizzlies. 159 00:08:28,880 --> 00:08:33,200 Speaker 2: How you feeling about next year from with the the 160 00:08:33,280 --> 00:08:38,719 Speaker 2: Memphis Grizzlies. Every year, so much unfolds. Yes, it is 161 00:08:39,040 --> 00:08:42,280 Speaker 2: so much unfolds. And this Western Conference there's no one 162 00:08:42,400 --> 00:08:46,520 Speaker 2: dominant and to me, this whole group, I mean it's 163 00:08:46,520 --> 00:08:48,680 Speaker 2: a little bit of a feather blown around in the wind, 164 00:08:48,760 --> 00:08:52,640 Speaker 2: and there's there there are probably six or seven ways 165 00:08:52,920 --> 00:08:55,280 Speaker 2: that this conference can turn when we get to this 166 00:08:55,400 --> 00:08:56,120 Speaker 2: time next year. 167 00:08:56,760 --> 00:09:00,200 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's it's we're not done with this year's so 168 00:09:00,360 --> 00:09:04,040 Speaker 3: projecting the Denver Nuggets or anybody else will be back 169 00:09:04,120 --> 00:09:08,920 Speaker 3: in this situation a year from today, that's ridiculous. We'll 170 00:09:08,960 --> 00:09:11,880 Speaker 3: see how this finals plays out. But like you said, 171 00:09:11,960 --> 00:09:15,080 Speaker 3: there's so much room and so many things teams can 172 00:09:15,120 --> 00:09:18,360 Speaker 3: do to be better or worse next year coming up, 173 00:09:18,360 --> 00:09:20,480 Speaker 3: and not not just for the Western Conference, before Eastern 174 00:09:20,520 --> 00:09:23,160 Speaker 3: Conference too. It's a lot of decisions and questions and 175 00:09:23,280 --> 00:09:27,240 Speaker 3: some coaching coaching availability that's that's still. 176 00:09:27,000 --> 00:09:27,880 Speaker 1: There, you know. 177 00:09:28,320 --> 00:09:31,640 Speaker 3: So it's a lot that needs to happen before we 178 00:09:31,880 --> 00:09:35,280 Speaker 3: pencil in who's going to be representing either conference. 179 00:09:35,760 --> 00:09:38,920 Speaker 1: Uh in these finals, Yeah, no doubt about it. I 180 00:09:38,920 --> 00:09:40,920 Speaker 1: mean Nikola Jokis is a problem. 181 00:09:41,080 --> 00:09:44,680 Speaker 3: He is a problem. We're not taking anything away from that. 182 00:09:45,120 --> 00:09:48,240 Speaker 3: He is by far, in my opinion, not by far. 183 00:09:48,480 --> 00:09:52,120 Speaker 3: But I will say, here's a clear cut, clear cut 184 00:09:52,320 --> 00:09:58,120 Speaker 3: cut best player in the NBA. And I know a 185 00:09:58,120 --> 00:09:59,839 Speaker 3: lot of people say, well, he doesn't play on the 186 00:09:59,880 --> 00:10:02,160 Speaker 3: d defensive side. He does enough on the defensive side 187 00:10:02,160 --> 00:10:04,200 Speaker 3: of the ball. He is not void of playing defense, 188 00:10:04,440 --> 00:10:08,520 Speaker 3: asked Anthony Davis. Right, he is not void of playing defense. 189 00:10:09,559 --> 00:10:12,720 Speaker 3: What he does offensively, his basketball IQ is through the roof. 190 00:10:12,760 --> 00:10:14,160 Speaker 3: I will put him in the top three in the 191 00:10:14,360 --> 00:10:17,880 Speaker 3: entire NBA in terms of basketball IQ and how he 192 00:10:17,880 --> 00:10:21,360 Speaker 3: can control the game from the mid to high post. 193 00:10:21,960 --> 00:10:25,040 Speaker 3: Not very many people can do that. I don't think 194 00:10:25,080 --> 00:10:28,760 Speaker 3: anyone else can in the NBA at the level he plays. 195 00:10:28,840 --> 00:10:32,599 Speaker 3: So for that, he gets my vote in terms of 196 00:10:33,000 --> 00:10:35,560 Speaker 3: being the best player in the league this year. 197 00:10:36,520 --> 00:10:40,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, well I agree with you, and listen, I'm not 198 00:10:40,120 --> 00:10:41,840 Speaker 2: here to say that. You know, it would be boring 199 00:10:41,920 --> 00:10:44,600 Speaker 2: if our opinion every time was well, let's just wait 200 00:10:44,640 --> 00:10:47,760 Speaker 2: and see, and so not going to do that. But 201 00:10:48,000 --> 00:10:51,199 Speaker 2: the bottom line is is I do think we get 202 00:10:51,240 --> 00:10:53,960 Speaker 2: to the end of seasons and this is all sports, 203 00:10:54,360 --> 00:10:57,080 Speaker 2: and we overreact all, oh yeah to what we just 204 00:10:57,160 --> 00:11:01,480 Speaker 2: saw now right now, like sometimes you've got a generational player. 205 00:11:01,559 --> 00:11:04,040 Speaker 2: Mahomes is kind of doing that for the Chiefs right now. 206 00:11:04,240 --> 00:11:06,560 Speaker 2: You've got a player that changes the league and and 207 00:11:06,559 --> 00:11:09,080 Speaker 2: and that's fine. We've seen that Lebron has done that 208 00:11:09,160 --> 00:11:12,160 Speaker 2: at times, and and Mahomes is doing that, and Brady 209 00:11:12,240 --> 00:11:15,320 Speaker 2: did that, and maybe Steph did that. Like there's that, 210 00:11:15,400 --> 00:11:18,559 Speaker 2: there's that list. I understand that. But outside of that, 211 00:11:19,480 --> 00:11:23,840 Speaker 2: I mean, you you experienced this. You guys were largely 212 00:11:23,880 --> 00:11:26,240 Speaker 2: a young team when you went to the Super Bowl. 213 00:11:26,679 --> 00:11:30,320 Speaker 2: When you got there, were you sitting there thinking, well, 214 00:11:30,400 --> 00:11:33,560 Speaker 2: I mean, so we'll just we'll come back three or 215 00:11:33,600 --> 00:11:36,240 Speaker 2: four times over the next seven years, and that's how 216 00:11:36,280 --> 00:11:37,000 Speaker 2: this is gonna go. 217 00:11:37,520 --> 00:11:39,040 Speaker 1: Was that your mindset at that time? 218 00:11:41,559 --> 00:11:43,679 Speaker 3: I really thought we would go to the Super Bowl 219 00:11:43,840 --> 00:11:47,800 Speaker 3: about every year, every year, every year every year, I thought. 220 00:11:47,720 --> 00:11:50,600 Speaker 2: Which you know now, but I bet you can tell 221 00:11:50,640 --> 00:11:53,560 Speaker 2: me stories right now as to why it never happened. 222 00:11:53,600 --> 00:11:54,600 Speaker 3: Agains. 223 00:11:55,080 --> 00:11:57,280 Speaker 1: Yes, it's that. 224 00:11:57,840 --> 00:12:00,840 Speaker 3: I mean, straight up, the bet are best player that 225 00:12:00,880 --> 00:12:05,200 Speaker 3: we had from ninety eight blew his knee out I 226 00:12:05,200 --> 00:12:08,880 Speaker 3: think the third or fourth game in ninety nine. 227 00:12:08,960 --> 00:12:11,600 Speaker 1: That well that was that. There we go. 228 00:12:11,679 --> 00:12:14,600 Speaker 3: We didn't have another running back unning back, so our 229 00:12:14,640 --> 00:12:16,920 Speaker 3: whole offensive game plan went right out. The one new 230 00:12:17,000 --> 00:12:20,800 Speaker 3: Chris Chandler got hurt. It just was a disaster. Disaster, 231 00:12:22,320 --> 00:12:23,560 Speaker 3: and that's just injury. 232 00:12:23,760 --> 00:12:26,480 Speaker 2: And there's so many other things, and we've talked about 233 00:12:26,480 --> 00:12:28,320 Speaker 2: so many of them, and we should talk about another 234 00:12:28,360 --> 00:12:32,280 Speaker 2: one of them coming up next because the commissioner spoke, 235 00:12:32,840 --> 00:12:38,120 Speaker 2: but a translation is needed.

And that 261 00:14:08,640 --> 00:14:13,240 Speaker 2: decision is Oh, it's kind of like in middle school 262 00:14:13,240 --> 00:14:16,199 Speaker 2: when there's a girl who has a crush on you.

I'm not telling. That would 266 00:14:24,200 --> 00:14:27,640 Speaker 2: be a secret. And I always thought to myself, well, well, 267 00:14:27,640 --> 00:14:31,600 Speaker 2: how the hell does that help anybody? So the NBA 268 00:14:31,760 --> 00:14:35,800 Speaker 2: does it the exact same way. Yep, We've got more 269 00:14:35,880 --> 00:14:39,960 Speaker 2: info and we made a decision, but we're not telling 270 00:14:40,000 --> 00:14:46,600 Speaker 2: you because, at least to me, from the decision is 271 00:14:46,680 --> 00:14:50,560 Speaker 2: going to land with such a loud thump that they 272 00:14:50,680 --> 00:14:53,760 Speaker 2: cannot do it during the NBA Finals and take away 273 00:14:53,840 --> 00:14:57,160 Speaker 2: from the two teams in the midst of performing. I 274 00:14:57,200 --> 00:15:00,320 Speaker 2: am bracing myself for Jahn Morant to miss next reason. 275 00:15:02,120 --> 00:15:05,640 Speaker 3: Uh yes, I think, And kudos to the commissioner and 276 00:15:06,080 --> 00:15:09,119 Speaker 3: then in the NBA doing their due diligence. 277 00:15:09,320 --> 00:15:10,600 Speaker 1: This allows. 278 00:15:12,360 --> 00:15:16,440 Speaker 3: When he said additional information, but the listen to this. 279 00:15:16,560 --> 00:15:20,080 Speaker 3: The information we have that the public has is enough. 280 00:15:22,360 --> 00:15:27,440 Speaker 3: Right these incidences that we've been privy to that he's 281 00:15:27,520 --> 00:15:33,920 Speaker 3: been involved in. I mean, it's a lot. If there 282 00:15:33,960 --> 00:15:41,080 Speaker 3: is more or other infractions or other complaints that we 283 00:15:41,200 --> 00:15:48,760 Speaker 3: haven't even been or had access to. The hammer is 284 00:15:48,800 --> 00:15:54,280 Speaker 3: coming m h. And it's heavy, and it's loud, and 285 00:15:54,320 --> 00:15:57,760 Speaker 3: it's going to reverberate and it's going to send a 286 00:15:57,760 --> 00:15:59,320 Speaker 3: heck of a message. 287 00:15:59,800 --> 00:16:03,280 Speaker 1: Uh. Before we speculate any further on that, can you 288 00:16:03,320 --> 00:16:05,800 Speaker 1: help me with this. I'm trying to figure out just 289 00:16:05,880 --> 00:16:07,120 Speaker 1: in watching. 290 00:16:07,560 --> 00:16:10,920 Speaker 2: Sports the way we do big time celebrities in front 291 00:16:10,920 --> 00:16:14,080 Speaker 2: of a podium all the time, they know exactly what 292 00:16:14,120 --> 00:16:15,880 Speaker 2: their words are going to do and how they're going 293 00:16:15,920 --> 00:16:16,760 Speaker 2: to be translated. 294 00:16:16,800 --> 00:16:18,680 Speaker 1: I'm trying to figure out for the life. 295 00:16:18,400 --> 00:16:21,920 Speaker 2: Of me, why Adam Silver didn't answer that question in 296 00:16:21,960 --> 00:16:26,160 Speaker 2: that moment by simply saying, the investigation is still ongoing 297 00:16:27,000 --> 00:16:29,760 Speaker 2: and we're just not ready to tell you anything yet. 298 00:16:29,920 --> 00:16:33,720 Speaker 2: I think because this almost works like a big. 299 00:16:33,480 --> 00:16:36,120 Speaker 1: Tease, and. 300 00:16:37,640 --> 00:16:41,680 Speaker 2: Which is fine, but it's like, you know, we don't 301 00:16:41,720 --> 00:16:44,480 Speaker 2: want to take away from the two teams that are 302 00:16:44,480 --> 00:16:45,720 Speaker 2: playing in the NBA Finals. 303 00:16:45,960 --> 00:16:48,520 Speaker 1: But it was sort of like Adam going, but we've 304 00:16:48,560 --> 00:16:50,480 Speaker 1: got something really big to tell you. 305 00:16:52,200 --> 00:16:54,640 Speaker 2: I'm not going to tell you yet, but because it's 306 00:16:54,640 --> 00:16:58,200 Speaker 2: too big, and that in and of itself, I mean, 307 00:16:58,240 --> 00:17:01,280 Speaker 2: here we are, here, we are are in the first 308 00:17:01,280 --> 00:17:04,320 Speaker 2: hour of our show. We're talking about this and and 309 00:17:04,400 --> 00:17:06,200 Speaker 2: not the game that that just started. 310 00:17:07,640 --> 00:17:11,240 Speaker 3: I think he's doing it because, first of all, I 311 00:17:11,240 --> 00:17:13,640 Speaker 3: applaud him for doing it that way, and I think 312 00:17:13,680 --> 00:17:16,360 Speaker 3: he had to say something because the information has been 313 00:17:16,400 --> 00:17:19,920 Speaker 3: given out. I'm sure the Marint camp knows. I'm sure 314 00:17:19,960 --> 00:17:25,199 Speaker 3: the NFL, the NBA, NFL Players Association they know. So 315 00:17:26,040 --> 00:17:31,480 Speaker 3: just to you know, stave off any leaked information or 316 00:17:31,520 --> 00:17:34,560 Speaker 3: something like that, him not being forthright and saying that 317 00:17:34,560 --> 00:17:37,119 Speaker 3: they've you know, come to a conclusion would come back 318 00:17:37,160 --> 00:17:40,080 Speaker 3: to buy them. So I believe for him in the 319 00:17:40,080 --> 00:17:43,520 Speaker 3: PR department, this was the safest way to go about it. 320 00:17:44,040 --> 00:17:48,119 Speaker 3: I'm sure they've informed the Morint camp that whatever this 321 00:17:48,240 --> 00:17:52,240 Speaker 3: penalty is going to be. So since that information was disseminated, 322 00:17:52,240 --> 00:17:54,880 Speaker 3: it was, it was released and it's out there. Then 323 00:17:54,920 --> 00:17:57,120 Speaker 3: I think he had to just be like, hey, look, 324 00:17:57,160 --> 00:17:59,160 Speaker 3: we got it. It's it's we're doing what we're doing. 325 00:17:59,400 --> 00:18:01,640 Speaker 3: Let's focus on these finals and then we're gonna cue 326 00:18:01,640 --> 00:18:02,879 Speaker 3: everybody in when it's time. 327 00:18:03,640 --> 00:18:04,000 Speaker 1: Yeah. 328 00:18:04,119 --> 00:18:07,560 Speaker 2: I mean, again, I have no issue with it, but 329 00:18:07,720 --> 00:18:11,560 Speaker 2: I was just curious as to why he would do 330 00:18:11,600 --> 00:18:16,399 Speaker 2: it that way, because again, it does it's almost like saying, look, 331 00:18:18,040 --> 00:18:22,199 Speaker 2: we don't we don't want to do anything large and 332 00:18:22,359 --> 00:18:26,440 Speaker 2: take away from the NBA Finals. So then just stop there. 333 00:18:26,600 --> 00:18:30,200 Speaker 2: But he sort of goes on to say, but boy, 334 00:18:30,400 --> 00:18:34,480 Speaker 2: this is really large. So that was interesting to me. 335 00:18:34,880 --> 00:18:35,879 Speaker 2: It was interesting to me. 336 00:18:36,040 --> 00:18:38,399 Speaker 1: But back to your original. 337 00:18:37,920 --> 00:18:43,520 Speaker 2: Point, we we know what we think we know about 338 00:18:43,640 --> 00:18:44,200 Speaker 2: Jahn Moran. 339 00:18:45,240 --> 00:18:46,920 Speaker 1: When when this whole thing. 340 00:18:48,240 --> 00:18:52,400 Speaker 2: Left, when the Grizzlies left, when the Lakers took him out, 341 00:18:52,760 --> 00:18:56,399 Speaker 2: we essentially had the there was one gun waved on 342 00:18:56,520 --> 00:18:57,240 Speaker 2: ig Live. 343 00:18:57,920 --> 00:18:59,880 Speaker 1: There was potentially another one. 344 00:19:00,560 --> 00:19:04,320 Speaker 2: We think there was a gun on social media, but 345 00:19:04,400 --> 00:19:06,639 Speaker 2: we hadn't for sure figured out if that was a 346 00:19:06,680 --> 00:19:09,479 Speaker 2: real gun. And then we had the other stuff that 347 00:19:09,600 --> 00:19:12,840 Speaker 2: all felt sort of mysterious and under the radar. 348 00:19:14,000 --> 00:19:17,159 Speaker 1: Potentially assaulted a minor. 349 00:19:18,560 --> 00:19:21,600 Speaker 2: At a basketball court, there was something with a mall 350 00:19:22,640 --> 00:19:26,400 Speaker 2: police officer. And then there was the incident where there 351 00:19:26,480 --> 00:19:31,200 Speaker 2: was a laser target coming out of a car being 352 00:19:31,280 --> 00:19:33,800 Speaker 2: pointed at members of. 353 00:19:33,720 --> 00:19:35,080 Speaker 1: A team they had just played. 354 00:19:35,720 --> 00:19:38,200 Speaker 2: So these are the five things we had, but at 355 00:19:38,280 --> 00:19:41,679 Speaker 2: minimum four of them were like, I don't really know 356 00:19:41,760 --> 00:19:45,439 Speaker 2: what happened, and I'm sure somebody investigated, but nobody was 357 00:19:45,480 --> 00:19:49,000 Speaker 2: really able to come up with anything substantial or else 358 00:19:49,480 --> 00:19:53,080 Speaker 2: somebody would have arrested or disciplined somebody which never happened. 359 00:19:53,560 --> 00:19:56,320 Speaker 2: So it just sort of felt like there was this 360 00:19:56,840 --> 00:20:01,440 Speaker 2: building of stuff, but you didn't have anything firm. If 361 00:20:01,440 --> 00:20:04,399 Speaker 2: Adam Silver is now going to stay out loud, we 362 00:20:04,520 --> 00:20:09,560 Speaker 2: have uncovered additional information making me think that there's something 363 00:20:09,640 --> 00:20:14,800 Speaker 2: beyond those five, and maybe they've also firmed up those five, 364 00:20:15,600 --> 00:20:21,080 Speaker 2: then look he's gonna miss the whole year, and get 365 00:20:21,080 --> 00:20:24,399 Speaker 2: ready for a line of people. You know, they can 366 00:20:24,600 --> 00:20:27,840 Speaker 2: everybody line up behind JJ Reddick to yell that John 367 00:20:27,920 --> 00:20:28,760 Speaker 2: didn't do anything. 368 00:20:29,160 --> 00:20:32,000 Speaker 1: He'd never been arrested. It's not illegal. 369 00:20:32,680 --> 00:20:34,800 Speaker 2: And then we have to have the conversation about how 370 00:20:34,840 --> 00:20:38,280 Speaker 2: in the corporate world it doesn't have to be illegal 371 00:20:38,840 --> 00:20:42,479 Speaker 2: for you to get sent home for as long as 372 00:20:42,520 --> 00:20:45,040 Speaker 2: they want to send you home. This guy's about to 373 00:20:45,040 --> 00:20:47,920 Speaker 2: make two hundred million dollars and they will not let 374 00:20:48,160 --> 00:20:51,040 Speaker 2: one of the future faces of the league do this stuff. 375 00:20:51,359 --> 00:20:51,800 Speaker 1: Period. 376 00:20:52,000 --> 00:20:53,760 Speaker 3: And that's the end. It's not going to happen. You 377 00:20:53,800 --> 00:20:56,800 Speaker 3: work for somebody, you bide by their bylaws and their rules. 378 00:20:56,840 --> 00:20:57,240 Speaker 1: That's it. 379 00:20:58,600 --> 00:21:02,680 Speaker 3: He didn't do anything illegal, Yeah, but he did something stupid. 380 00:21:03,240 --> 00:21:11,000 Speaker 3: And sometimes being stupid is a fireball offense. Right, if 381 00:21:11,920 --> 00:21:14,120 Speaker 3: we see it all the time on social media. Right, 382 00:21:14,440 --> 00:21:21,879 Speaker 3: you're at a store, people arguing, say black women's arguing 383 00:21:21,880 --> 00:21:25,639 Speaker 3: with a white woman or whatever. White woman hollers out, 384 00:21:25,960 --> 00:21:30,440 Speaker 3: calls her the end word. That's not illegal. It's not illegal. 385 00:21:31,520 --> 00:21:33,800 Speaker 3: It's all over social media. Next thing, you know, we 386 00:21:33,880 --> 00:21:36,639 Speaker 3: know this woman, she's a nurse at the local hospital. 387 00:21:37,040 --> 00:21:40,080 Speaker 3: This and that, what do you think happens? 388 00:21:40,119 --> 00:21:40,560 Speaker 1: Bye bye? 389 00:21:40,960 --> 00:21:44,679 Speaker 3: Right, it's not illegal. Did was arguing they were fighting 390 00:21:44,680 --> 00:21:50,719 Speaker 3: over corn pops. It's not illegal, but it's stupid and 391 00:21:50,760 --> 00:21:55,840 Speaker 3: it's ignorant and it's a firebull offense. If the person 392 00:21:55,880 --> 00:21:58,320 Speaker 3: you work for, the company you work for a deem. 393 00:21:58,560 --> 00:21:58,960 Speaker 1: It's so. 394 00:22:01,760 --> 00:22:05,439 Speaker 3: This is a global brand, one of the biggest in 395 00:22:05,480 --> 00:22:10,600 Speaker 3: the world. If they don't want the face of the 396 00:22:10,720 --> 00:22:16,480 Speaker 3: league to be about violence and guns, they can do 397 00:22:16,560 --> 00:22:21,439 Speaker 3: whatever they want to do. I'm not in the business. 398 00:22:22,080 --> 00:22:24,040 Speaker 3: He's twenty three years old. He's a young kid. Yeah, 399 00:22:24,040 --> 00:22:27,479 Speaker 3: we get it, man, we get it, we get it. 400 00:22:28,000 --> 00:22:30,720 Speaker 3: He was twenty three when they suspended them for eight 401 00:22:30,760 --> 00:22:33,960 Speaker 3: games to send them to some music retreat or whatever 402 00:22:34,000 --> 00:22:39,720 Speaker 3: that was in Florida for the two weeks. Right, but 403 00:22:39,800 --> 00:22:42,000 Speaker 3: he's twenty three. He came back and he did something stupid. 404 00:22:42,040 --> 00:22:42,359 Speaker 1: Again. 405 00:22:43,480 --> 00:22:44,879 Speaker 3: It was twenty three when he went up to the 406 00:22:44,920 --> 00:22:46,520 Speaker 3: mall to fight the foot action. 407 00:22:48,880 --> 00:22:49,080 Speaker 1: Dude. 408 00:22:49,119 --> 00:22:50,800 Speaker 3: He was twenty three when he went to the girls 409 00:22:50,920 --> 00:22:53,440 Speaker 3: volleyball game and wanted to fight the girls in the stands. 410 00:22:53,560 --> 00:22:56,320 Speaker 3: Who's also twenty three when he beat up a seventeen 411 00:22:56,359 --> 00:22:59,400 Speaker 3: year old kid at the house and then a poor 412 00:22:59,480 --> 00:23:04,760 Speaker 3: a weapon. So for those who are saying he's twenty three, 413 00:23:04,880 --> 00:23:08,480 Speaker 3: he's a kid. He makes mistakes. Do you know what 414 00:23:08,520 --> 00:23:10,720 Speaker 3: happened to a twenty three? Do you know what happens 415 00:23:10,720 --> 00:23:13,440 Speaker 3: to twenty three year old black men in this country 416 00:23:14,200 --> 00:23:21,359 Speaker 3: who continue to make dangerous mistakes. My father, my father 417 00:23:21,480 --> 00:23:27,200 Speaker 3: worked twenty seven years in the correctional facility, twenty seven 418 00:23:27,280 --> 00:23:30,359 Speaker 3: years and some of the hardest prisons on the planet Earth. 419 00:23:31,600 --> 00:23:34,000 Speaker 3: He would come home every day when he came home 420 00:23:34,240 --> 00:23:38,240 Speaker 3: and tell and tell me these stories of these young 421 00:23:38,400 --> 00:23:44,919 Speaker 3: twenty three twenty two year old men, young men who 422 00:23:45,000 --> 00:23:51,040 Speaker 3: were making similar mistakes, all right. Are the flip side 423 00:23:51,040 --> 00:23:54,880 Speaker 3: of that is they got a whole cemetery full of 424 00:23:54,920 --> 00:23:58,520 Speaker 3: that exact same thing. So I don't want to hear 425 00:23:58,640 --> 00:24:02,280 Speaker 3: from JJ Reddick or anybody else talking about but he's 426 00:24:02,280 --> 00:24:06,639 Speaker 3: twenty three. He can make mistakes, but some of the 427 00:24:06,680 --> 00:24:10,879 Speaker 3: mistakes he's making can be life altering, not only for 428 00:24:11,000 --> 00:24:17,240 Speaker 3: him the people he's around. Look at the social climate 429 00:24:17,320 --> 00:24:22,960 Speaker 3: we're in right now in this country, and you riding 430 00:24:23,000 --> 00:24:25,960 Speaker 3: around with guns in a car, a moving car. I 431 00:24:26,000 --> 00:24:29,280 Speaker 3: don't care if it's licensed or not. That has not 432 00:24:29,440 --> 00:24:33,800 Speaker 3: stopped innocent people from being shot and killed in cars 433 00:24:34,480 --> 00:24:38,119 Speaker 3: when they have stated that they have a licensed firearm 434 00:24:38,160 --> 00:24:42,160 Speaker 3: in the car. It's bigger than just this small thing, 435 00:24:42,359 --> 00:24:46,679 Speaker 3: this kid in the NBA. Look at what society is 436 00:24:46,760 --> 00:24:50,800 Speaker 3: doing and where we are right now. Then come talk 437 00:24:50,840 --> 00:24:53,960 Speaker 3: to me in five years when we're talking about man, 438 00:24:54,080 --> 00:25:00,320 Speaker 3: Remember when man, how's a tragedy? That's what I come on. 439 00:25:01,640 --> 00:25:03,280 Speaker 3: And I said it before, I said it last week. 440 00:25:03,280 --> 00:25:04,800 Speaker 3: I know we got to get to Steve.

Yep, they don't have to, 443 00:25:14,080 --> 00:25:14,800 Speaker 3: they don't have to. 444 00:25:15,640 --> 00:25:20,639 Speaker 2: No, he has to right eventually, Yeah, eventually he has to. 445 00:25:20,720 --> 00:25:22,280 Speaker 1: Yeah, there's much more to say on this. 446 00:25:23,320 --> 00:25:26,199 Speaker 2: But when you speak of making mistakes, there's one that 447 00:25:26,240 --> 00:25:30,440 Speaker 2: we will not make, and that is keeping Steve de Sega. 448 00:25:30,080 --> 00:25:32,359 Speaker 1: Away from the world.

It's why I always stress the power of 558 00:31:09,760 --> 00:31:14,840 Speaker 2: now for sports teams who are in a window. I mean, 559 00:31:15,080 --> 00:31:20,000 Speaker 2: think about trust the process. For example, with the Philadelphia Sixers, 560 00:31:20,520 --> 00:31:25,080 Speaker 2: I mean, their process has had its very very good aspects, 561 00:31:25,480 --> 00:31:29,760 Speaker 2: but that process at a certain point also meant betting 562 00:31:29,800 --> 00:31:33,040 Speaker 2: a big portion of the future on Ben Simmons, and 563 00:31:33,200 --> 00:31:35,680 Speaker 2: I still to this day don't really know what's going 564 00:31:35,720 --> 00:31:39,000 Speaker 2: on with him. I still don't know, man, exactly what's 565 00:31:39,000 --> 00:31:44,840 Speaker 2: going on with Ben. But this idea of well, it's 566 00:31:44,880 --> 00:31:46,800 Speaker 2: going to be this a year from now, it's going 567 00:31:46,840 --> 00:31:49,680 Speaker 2: to be this two years from now. I've lived a 568 00:31:49,800 --> 00:31:53,480 Speaker 2: number of years, Ephraim, and one thing is true. Every 569 00:31:53,560 --> 00:31:57,600 Speaker 2: year it never looks like I think it's gonna look now. 570 00:31:57,640 --> 00:32:02,800 Speaker 3: No, No, welcome to life, right right.

I got a question, Ephrom, and I 605 00:33:59,120 --> 00:34:01,600 Speaker 2: wonder what it would look like. I've asked this before. 606 00:34:01,720 --> 00:34:07,400 Speaker 2: I sort of understand why in sports we get to 607 00:34:07,480 --> 00:34:08,680 Speaker 2: know what players make. 608 00:34:09,560 --> 00:34:10,840 Speaker 1: It's part of the game. 609 00:34:11,320 --> 00:34:15,480 Speaker 2: In the respect that there's a salary cap in some sports, 610 00:34:16,040 --> 00:34:21,200 Speaker 2: it helps us assess how a general manager, an organizational structure, 611 00:34:21,560 --> 00:34:22,400 Speaker 2: how they're doing. 612 00:34:22,840 --> 00:34:25,720 Speaker 1: I do think it leads to some bad stuff. 613 00:34:25,800 --> 00:34:28,880 Speaker 2: Sometimes a player can be playing well and the public 614 00:34:28,920 --> 00:34:31,719 Speaker 2: thinks that he or she is not playing well because 615 00:34:31,719 --> 00:34:34,080 Speaker 2: they're actually playing well, they're just not playing well enough 616 00:34:34,120 --> 00:34:37,359 Speaker 2: to justify said salary. But I get it when there's 617 00:34:37,400 --> 00:34:39,759 Speaker 2: a cap and there's maneuvering going on. 618 00:34:40,560 --> 00:34:41,960 Speaker 1: Can you help me with this? 619 00:34:42,440 --> 00:34:46,680 Speaker 2: Why on earth would I give two rips what a 620 00:34:46,840 --> 00:34:50,960 Speaker 2: multi billion dollar company would pay its coach. 621 00:34:53,239 --> 00:34:54,279 Speaker 1: Why do I care about that? 622 00:34:55,640 --> 00:35:01,920 Speaker 3: It's entertainment, Okay, it's entertainment, and and you know, people 623 00:35:02,080 --> 00:35:11,000 Speaker 3: are enthralled with what entertainers make. It's just public knowledge. 624 00:35:11,080 --> 00:35:14,120 Speaker 3: It goes out you say, you know, you get a 625 00:35:14,160 --> 00:35:18,480 Speaker 3: new contract or, and it's for public consumption. 626 00:35:19,120 --> 00:35:19,920 Speaker 1: That's what it is. 627 00:35:19,960 --> 00:35:24,600 Speaker 3: We know what CEOs make at studios, and like all 628 00:35:24,640 --> 00:35:28,000 Speaker 3: that information, all those secret sound we know Roger Goodell makes, 629 00:35:28,040 --> 00:35:31,880 Speaker 3: Like that's just part of of what we know.

You 646 00:36:22,000 --> 00:36:24,920 Speaker 2: bought the team for four hundred and fifty million dollars 647 00:36:25,360 --> 00:36:29,520 Speaker 2: less than fifteen years ago. It's now worth like five 648 00:36:29,600 --> 00:36:33,200 Speaker 2: or six billion, and it's actually probably worth more than that. Like, 649 00:36:34,480 --> 00:36:37,680 Speaker 2: pay Steve Kurk fifty million a year. That's what you're paying, Steph. 650 00:36:38,000 --> 00:36:42,320 Speaker 2: I don't care paying fifty Like if I'm a fan, 651 00:36:42,600 --> 00:36:45,160 Speaker 2: all I care about is is the person who I 652 00:36:45,200 --> 00:36:46,720 Speaker 2: would like to see the coach? 653 00:36:47,200 --> 00:36:51,040 Speaker 1: Are they the coach?

Those aren't the same things. But 677 00:38:02,680 --> 00:38:04,560 Speaker 3: all right, let's let's brush you up on a knowledge 678 00:38:04,560 --> 00:38:07,759 Speaker 3: here that's that's not the same thing. Don't be outraged 679 00:38:07,880 --> 00:38:10,440 Speaker 3: just for the sake of being outraged, and you get 680 00:38:10,440 --> 00:38:12,960 Speaker 3: a lot of that. It's it's public knowledge. Look, hey, 681 00:38:13,520 --> 00:38:15,279 Speaker 3: you can pay a coach anything you want. When they 682 00:38:15,280 --> 00:38:18,520 Speaker 3: gave Grooton a hundred million dollars the Raiders, everybody was 683 00:38:18,560 --> 00:38:20,560 Speaker 3: like the dumbest in the world. 684 00:38:21,760 --> 00:38:25,759 Speaker 2: Sure, sure well, And there ended up being emails two 685 00:38:25,800 --> 00:38:28,520 Speaker 2: seconds later, which you know, you end up with egg 686 00:38:28,600 --> 00:38:29,120 Speaker 2: on your face. 687 00:38:29,120 --> 00:38:32,880 Speaker 1: But that's a great example. The Raiders have suffered in 688 00:38:33,000 --> 00:38:35,040 Speaker 1: what way because of that contract? Right? 689 00:38:36,440 --> 00:38:36,640 Speaker 5: None? 690 00:38:36,760 --> 00:38:40,239 Speaker 3: None, They're fine. They're just paying somebody who's not there. 691 00:38:41,320 --> 00:38:46,879 Speaker 2: Yeah, which, by the way, is happening probably to every franchise. 692 00:38:47,120 --> 00:38:49,760 Speaker 3: I think the Lakers still paying two coaches who haven't 693 00:38:49,800 --> 00:38:50,720 Speaker 3: coached in my gosh. 694 00:38:51,400 --> 00:38:54,120 Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm surprised it's only two.

Sure, sure they're not 808 00:44:44,280 --> 00:44:47,520 Speaker 1: okay us anyway. 809 00:44:47,960 --> 00:44:52,640 Speaker 2: Point being, point being is when we and we still do, 810 00:44:53,040 --> 00:44:53,680 Speaker 2: we still do. 811 00:44:54,120 --> 00:44:56,719 Speaker 1: I'm not changing my opinion. I'm not here to tell 812 00:44:56,719 --> 00:44:59,279 Speaker 1: you that the Denver Nuggets are about to start a dynasty. 813 00:44:59,640 --> 00:45:01,640 Speaker 1: I don't. I don't look at stuff that way. 814 00:45:02,040 --> 00:45:07,080 Speaker 2: But we spent all year saying this Western Conference is jumbled, 815 00:45:07,560 --> 00:45:10,239 Speaker 2: it's filled with parody. There are a bunch of ways 816 00:45:10,280 --> 00:45:14,440 Speaker 2: that could go, and it was that throughout the whole year, 817 00:45:14,640 --> 00:45:18,600 Speaker 2: but maybe not to the level that we thought. Like Denver, 818 00:45:18,880 --> 00:45:21,720 Speaker 2: the way they've played in the playoffs and the fact 819 00:45:21,760 --> 00:45:27,000 Speaker 2: that they were with relative ease the one seed, I 820 00:45:27,040 --> 00:45:29,400 Speaker 2: think that they would have the right right now to 821 00:45:29,480 --> 00:45:32,880 Speaker 2: raise their head and go actually there wasn't actually that 822 00:45:32,960 --> 00:45:38,239 Speaker 2: much parody, like we are clearly the best team. 823 00:45:38,560 --> 00:45:42,160 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean all year they've been like that, though. 824 00:45:42,719 --> 00:45:44,800 Speaker 3: Why teams are trying to figure it out. The Lakers 825 00:45:44,840 --> 00:45:49,719 Speaker 3: had to rehaul, overhaul the you know, the roster to 826 00:45:49,800 --> 00:45:53,239 Speaker 3: be competitive. You had all kinds of things going on 827 00:45:53,360 --> 00:45:57,400 Speaker 3: in Memphis, all right, the experiment of two bigs in 828 00:45:57,440 --> 00:46:01,799 Speaker 3: a no big NBA. And in Minnesota it was so 829 00:46:01,920 --> 00:46:07,640 Speaker 3: many things, you know, going on, the movement of the 830 00:46:07,680 --> 00:46:12,480 Speaker 3: Suns and you know, being hurt not playing together. It 831 00:46:12,560 --> 00:46:15,480 Speaker 3: was so much going on, and the different nuggas just like, now, 832 00:46:15,520 --> 00:46:18,320 Speaker 3: we're just gonna keep on going, brother, we got everything 833 00:46:18,360 --> 00:46:21,800 Speaker 3: we need. We locked in, guys know their roles, their positions, 834 00:46:21,840 --> 00:46:23,799 Speaker 3: and we got the best player in the league. So no, 835 00:46:23,920 --> 00:46:25,560 Speaker 3: you guys go ahead try to figure this thing out. 836 00:46:25,600 --> 00:46:28,200 Speaker 3: We're just gonna keep on going. And we're seeing that 837 00:46:29,000 --> 00:46:31,920 Speaker 3: in front of our eyes on the big stage. Throughout 838 00:46:31,920 --> 00:46:36,080 Speaker 3: this whole playoff run, nobody has bothered them. They haven't 839 00:46:36,080 --> 00:46:37,200 Speaker 3: been afraid of anybody. 840 00:46:37,840 --> 00:46:39,880 Speaker 1: No. I mean when they were evened up with the 841 00:46:39,920 --> 00:46:40,680 Speaker 1: Suns too too. 842 00:46:40,760 --> 00:46:43,040 Speaker 2: I guess you could say that next game five back 843 00:46:43,080 --> 00:46:46,920 Speaker 2: in Denver was a very important game to sort of 844 00:46:46,960 --> 00:46:49,800 Speaker 2: re establish themselves as the team. They won that game 845 00:46:50,239 --> 00:46:54,600 Speaker 2: by sixteen points. They won at Phoenix two nights later 846 00:46:54,640 --> 00:47:00,680 Speaker 2: by twenty five, and that's it. In fact, uh, the 847 00:47:00,719 --> 00:47:03,239 Speaker 2: second the Son's even them up at to two. 848 00:47:03,520 --> 00:47:05,360 Speaker 1: They haven't lost a basketball game since. 849 00:47:07,320 --> 00:47:14,240 Speaker 3: Yeah. Yeah, it's they're on a mission, and that mission 850 00:47:14,280 --> 00:47:18,319 Speaker 3: is clear. They're playing extremely well. You don't have a 851 00:47:18,320 --> 00:47:20,759 Speaker 3: bunch of guys trying to figure out what their role is, 852 00:47:21,280 --> 00:47:24,360 Speaker 3: and they're led, you know, by someone who does everything. 853 00:47:25,640 --> 00:47:28,600 Speaker 3: That's a tough team to beat, and with the altitude 854 00:47:28,640 --> 00:47:30,200 Speaker 3: on their side, it's hard to go up Dre and play. 855 00:47:30,200 --> 00:47:33,120 Speaker 1: Brother. It is hard to go up there to play no. 856 00:47:33,280 --> 00:47:35,480 Speaker 1: I know, you know, I know, you know, you've mentioned 857 00:47:35,480 --> 00:47:38,279 Speaker 1: it a couple of times. Oh yeah, I know. One 858 00:47:38,280 --> 00:47:39,160 Speaker 1: thing that you don't know. 859 00:47:39,239 --> 00:47:44,239 Speaker 2: Though, I'd like to thank producer Brandon for for confirming 860 00:47:44,600 --> 00:47:48,680 Speaker 2: what I thought to be true, which is that Brandon. 861 00:47:49,440 --> 00:47:52,879 Speaker 3: Wait, first of all, we. 862 00:47:54,520 --> 00:47:58,920 Speaker 1: Okay, hang on, I actually do want to apologize. 863 00:47:59,000 --> 00:48:02,000 Speaker 2: You're right from the Lakers are the only team to 864 00:48:02,040 --> 00:48:05,360 Speaker 2: have gone fifteen in one, but the Warriors. 865 00:48:05,000 --> 00:48:09,200 Speaker 1: Went sixteen sixteen and one. 866 00:48:10,200 --> 00:48:17,239 Speaker 2: Well, you know, twenty seventeen, twenty twenty seventeen, Warriors sixteen 867 00:48:17,560 --> 00:48:18,000 Speaker 2: and one. 868 00:48:18,960 --> 00:48:23,120 Speaker 3: All right, man, okay, okay, there you. 869 00:48:22,239 --> 00:48:23,640 Speaker 1: So you think their head coach is leaving? 870 00:48:23,680 --> 00:48:24,520 Speaker 3: Do you do? 871 00:48:26,840 --> 00:48:30,600 Speaker 1: You might be right? Really do. Now. I'll share this 872 00:48:30,680 --> 00:48:32,719 Speaker 1: real quick before I hear why. 873 00:48:33,719 --> 00:48:38,319 Speaker 2: Because the show that I do ninety five seven the 874 00:48:38,320 --> 00:48:41,000 Speaker 2: game Monday through Friday, Willard and Dibbs two to six 875 00:48:41,040 --> 00:48:46,560 Speaker 2: in the afternoon. Steve's weekly spot is with us and 876 00:48:47,320 --> 00:48:51,440 Speaker 2: in the final week of the playoffs, with all the 877 00:48:51,480 --> 00:48:54,000 Speaker 2: Bob Meyers rumors out there, and Steve and Bob are 878 00:48:54,120 --> 00:48:57,000 Speaker 2: very very tight, very good friends. Steve earlier in the 879 00:48:57,040 --> 00:48:59,239 Speaker 2: year said it would be devastating if Bob left, and 880 00:48:59,280 --> 00:49:04,040 Speaker 2: Bob has now Steve, for whatever it's worth, stated to 881 00:49:04,200 --> 00:49:12,000 Speaker 2: us has absolutely no designs on doing anything differently and 882 00:49:12,200 --> 00:49:15,120 Speaker 2: would like to continue to be the Warriors head coach, 883 00:49:15,239 --> 00:49:18,120 Speaker 2: not their general manager or anything else. He'd like to 884 00:49:18,160 --> 00:49:20,400 Speaker 2: be the Warriors head coach for years to come. He 885 00:49:20,440 --> 00:49:24,200 Speaker 2: did state that, Oh, but tell me why you're thinking. 886 00:49:24,239 --> 00:49:27,080 Speaker 3: What you're thinking, Well, when you look at what's happening 887 00:49:27,160 --> 00:49:29,920 Speaker 3: right now with the Golden State Warriors, and I know 888 00:49:29,960 --> 00:49:32,920 Speaker 3: it's easy for me to say, you know, the house 889 00:49:33,040 --> 00:49:36,520 Speaker 3: is on fire, but the money is what the money is. 890 00:49:38,239 --> 00:49:41,719 Speaker 3: The Golden State Warriors have had a tremendous run four 891 00:49:41,800 --> 00:49:52,240 Speaker 3: championships and what seven years. What's happening is Bob stepping away. 892 00:49:53,120 --> 00:49:57,000 Speaker 3: We know that this team as it's currently constructed, in 893 00:49:57,040 --> 00:50:01,359 Speaker 3: the money that's allocated to people in the contract that is, 894 00:50:01,800 --> 00:50:05,000 Speaker 3: that's a nightmare. That's happening. We're in. We're they're living 895 00:50:05,080 --> 00:50:07,120 Speaker 3: in the nightment. Of course, there's ways to get around 896 00:50:07,160 --> 00:50:09,840 Speaker 3: and all of that, but that half a billion dollar 897 00:50:10,040 --> 00:50:17,479 Speaker 3: luxury tax. Hey man, look here, when you're winning championships, yes, 898 00:50:18,160 --> 00:50:21,719 Speaker 3: but there are some holes, there's some problems. Guys are 899 00:50:21,840 --> 00:50:26,080 Speaker 3: much older. Okay, Draymone is not the dray Minded he was. 900 00:50:27,200 --> 00:50:29,799 Speaker 3: Klay Thompson is definitely not to Clay he he was, 901 00:50:29,880 --> 00:50:32,839 Speaker 3: and and he just needs an off season. No, no, no, no. 902 00:50:33,080 --> 00:50:34,879 Speaker 3: The things that have happened to him with his leg, 903 00:50:34,920 --> 00:50:36,640 Speaker 3: and these are leg injuries. These are things that you 904 00:50:36,680 --> 00:50:41,640 Speaker 3: can't avoid, right, You don't come back, especially as you 905 00:50:41,760 --> 00:50:45,200 Speaker 3: age as the player you were prior to the injury. Yeah, 906 00:50:45,200 --> 00:50:49,400 Speaker 3: he can shoot, still shoot. But what made Clay special 907 00:50:49,719 --> 00:50:51,520 Speaker 3: was his ability to play on both ends of the cause. 908 00:50:51,560 --> 00:50:54,759 Speaker 3: He was becoming a very good winging defender, that's gone 909 00:50:54,760 --> 00:50:57,479 Speaker 3: because he doesn't have the foot quickness anymore. So there's 910 00:50:57,480 --> 00:51:00,120 Speaker 3: a hole there in your defense. Draymond is older, there's 911 00:51:00,000 --> 00:51:02,640 Speaker 3: a hole there. Yeah, he can do it in spurts, 912 00:51:02,680 --> 00:51:04,920 Speaker 3: but can he do it the whole season? And then 913 00:51:05,000 --> 00:51:09,560 Speaker 3: you look at the Jordan Poole situation, the Kominga situation, 914 00:51:10,080 --> 00:51:13,960 Speaker 3: These young players that they want and need to step forward, 915 00:51:13,960 --> 00:51:17,839 Speaker 3: They needed that. This year didn't happen. Probably a little 916 00:51:17,840 --> 00:51:22,000 Speaker 3: bit of a setback. Steph is gonna be making fifty 917 00:51:22,080 --> 00:51:25,400 Speaker 3: nine sixty million dollars the next couple of years. 918 00:51:26,000 --> 00:51:26,640 Speaker 1: What are you going? 919 00:51:26,800 --> 00:51:29,560 Speaker 3: What will the team look like? Yeah, it's easy to 920 00:51:29,560 --> 00:51:31,640 Speaker 3: sit up there and be like, yeah, we want Draymond back, 921 00:51:31,680 --> 00:51:35,520 Speaker 3: we want everybody to come back. But do the numbers, 922 00:51:35,560 --> 00:51:39,560 Speaker 3: do the does the sound? Does that make sense? Absolutely not? 923 00:51:40,920 --> 00:51:46,120 Speaker 3: And I believe Bob knew that, and I believe Steve 924 00:51:46,239 --> 00:51:50,440 Speaker 3: knows that. Does Steve want to go through a rebuild 925 00:51:51,280 --> 00:51:55,800 Speaker 3: even though Steph is there? Do you see Steve Kerr 926 00:51:56,719 --> 00:52:00,279 Speaker 3: going through a rebecause that that year that Steph got 927 00:52:00,320 --> 00:52:02,840 Speaker 3: hurt that it was what was that two years ago. 928 00:52:04,320 --> 00:52:06,000 Speaker 1: Where everybody was hurt? Yes? 929 00:52:06,120 --> 00:52:08,080 Speaker 3: Right, and Steph hurt his hand and then it was 930 00:52:08,160 --> 00:52:14,240 Speaker 3: just like, wh right, that that was dreadful. I don't 931 00:52:14,280 --> 00:52:18,480 Speaker 3: see Steve sign it up for five years of that. No, 932 00:52:18,760 --> 00:52:22,360 Speaker 3: I think he's done enough as a player as a 933 00:52:22,400 --> 00:52:26,440 Speaker 3: coach of course, right Like so you start you start 934 00:52:26,560 --> 00:52:29,760 Speaker 3: thinking like, okay, well does it does it really make sense? 935 00:52:30,520 --> 00:52:32,800 Speaker 3: Are you ready to go on this ride? 936 00:52:34,560 --> 00:52:34,799 Speaker 1: Yeah? 937 00:52:34,880 --> 00:52:39,279 Speaker 2: I mean it's so fascinating because in the uh, in 938 00:52:39,360 --> 00:52:42,279 Speaker 2: the Syonira press conference for Bob Myers, their owner Joe 939 00:52:42,320 --> 00:52:46,640 Speaker 2: Lacup stated that even with the change in the CBA rules, UH, 940 00:52:46,680 --> 00:52:48,840 Speaker 2: he kind of pounded his hand on the table a 941 00:52:48,840 --> 00:52:51,879 Speaker 2: little bit and was like, we're gonna win. We're gonna win, 942 00:52:52,000 --> 00:52:55,040 Speaker 2: because that's what good organizations do. They figure it out. 943 00:52:55,080 --> 00:52:57,040 Speaker 2: I don't care what the rules are. We're gonna win. 944 00:52:57,640 --> 00:52:59,759 Speaker 2: And I know fans eat that up like a bowl 945 00:52:59,800 --> 00:53:05,040 Speaker 2: of al at midnight, like, oh, we're gonna win. It's like, okay, 946 00:53:05,239 --> 00:53:14,840 Speaker 2: how how generational players don't grow on trees? It's really 947 00:53:14,880 --> 00:53:18,920 Speaker 2: hard to get good draft picks when you're pretty good 948 00:53:19,160 --> 00:53:23,839 Speaker 2: every year. And I don't see the free agent right 949 00:53:23,880 --> 00:53:28,919 Speaker 2: now that is is tracking toward even being affordable or desiring, 950 00:53:29,400 --> 00:53:30,920 Speaker 2: Like it's whatever it is. 951 00:53:30,960 --> 00:53:33,239 Speaker 1: There's a ton of weeds in the way. So I 952 00:53:33,520 --> 00:53:34,680 Speaker 1: get what you're saying there. 953 00:53:34,880 --> 00:53:38,520 Speaker 2: I don't think they think that they're as done as 954 00:53:38,560 --> 00:53:41,399 Speaker 2: the rest of the world thinks with regard to their 955 00:53:41,440 --> 00:53:42,080 Speaker 2: current core. 956 00:53:42,400 --> 00:53:44,160 Speaker 1: I will say that, I. 957 00:53:44,080 --> 00:53:47,239 Speaker 2: Know Steve doesn't think so, but you're right, he's not 958 00:53:47,280 --> 00:53:50,960 Speaker 2: gonna want to rebuild. He he does not like playing 959 00:53:51,000 --> 00:53:53,800 Speaker 2: young players, to the point where the criticism he received 960 00:53:53,800 --> 00:53:58,719 Speaker 2: this year is all about that. You know round here, Oh, 961 00:53:58,800 --> 00:54:01,719 Speaker 2: Kaminga comingo. Why didn't you play Kamingo? Why didn't you 962 00:54:01,719 --> 00:54:06,560 Speaker 2: develop developed development? You gave Wiseman away, like, yeah, he's 963 00:54:06,560 --> 00:54:10,520 Speaker 2: not into it, and and and championship coaches usually aren't 964 00:54:10,880 --> 00:54:13,560 Speaker 2: because twenty year olds don't win titles. 965 00:54:13,360 --> 00:54:13,920 Speaker 1: Do they do? 966 00:54:14,000 --> 00:54:17,640 Speaker 3: People realize that he didn't develop Steph Clurk occurring and 967 00:54:17,719 --> 00:54:22,319 Speaker 3: Clay and although Mark Jackson did. Mark Jackson developed those 968 00:54:22,360 --> 00:54:26,120 Speaker 3: guys they bought in and started playing it. And it's 969 00:54:26,200 --> 00:54:28,600 Speaker 3: that's real, right. You can feel how a lot of 970 00:54:28,600 --> 00:54:31,480 Speaker 3: people feel the way they feel. But what did they win? 971 00:54:31,600 --> 00:54:36,319 Speaker 3: Fifty six games? Uh? Mark Jackson's last year? 972 00:54:36,920 --> 00:54:38,719 Speaker 1: Yeah you could. I mean there's a little bit of 973 00:54:38,760 --> 00:54:41,360 Speaker 1: a hybrid comment there. You're not You're not wrong. 974 00:54:42,880 --> 00:54:47,080 Speaker 2: However, those players then became something completely different when Steve 975 00:54:47,160 --> 00:54:47,959 Speaker 2: Kerr took o. 976 00:54:47,960 --> 00:54:50,279 Speaker 3: Oh yeah, yeah, I mean they want a championship that 977 00:54:51,320 --> 00:54:51,799 Speaker 3: next year. 978 00:54:52,680 --> 00:54:56,359 Speaker 2: I'm gonna I'm gonna give the development nod uh. I'm 979 00:54:56,400 --> 00:54:58,879 Speaker 2: gonna split that into a pie and give give both 980 00:54:58,960 --> 00:54:59,760 Speaker 2: gentlemen a piece. 981 00:55:00,080 --> 00:55:04,280 Speaker 3: Okay, because remember Steph Curry was on the verge of being, 982 00:55:05,719 --> 00:55:09,239 Speaker 3: you know, injury prone and not right. 983 00:55:09,360 --> 00:55:13,080 Speaker 2: Remember the angle, the four year, forty four million dollar 984 00:55:13,200 --> 00:55:16,000 Speaker 2: contract that the injuries led to, which is what opened 985 00:55:16,040 --> 00:55:19,440 Speaker 2: the door for them to bring in Igwadala and and 986 00:55:19,600 --> 00:55:23,480 Speaker 2: then eventually Durant of course.

You 1033 00:57:52,120 --> 00:57:56,040 Speaker 2: know what did Michael achieve before he got there? Obviously 1034 00:57:56,160 --> 00:58:00,320 Speaker 2: the two don't like one another. I don't know many 1035 00:58:00,360 --> 00:58:05,160 Speaker 2: who do like Michael. Chuck and Michael don't get along anymore. 1036 00:58:05,520 --> 00:58:09,600 Speaker 2: Had a falling out.

The fans they like 1040 00:58:18,280 --> 00:58:18,960 Speaker 3: a shoe. 1041 00:58:18,800 --> 00:58:22,680 Speaker 1: Because because they don't know them. Yeah, it seems I 1042 00:58:22,720 --> 00:58:23,840 Speaker 1: don't know him either. 1043 00:58:24,520 --> 00:58:27,440 Speaker 2: But I don't know what's your When you see Scotty 1044 00:58:27,520 --> 00:58:30,200 Speaker 2: come out this, what's what's your read? 1045 00:58:30,560 --> 00:58:33,880 Speaker 3: I just feel like hurt people hurt people, you know, 1046 00:58:34,480 --> 00:58:38,080 Speaker 3: And Scotty's coming from a place of pain. Number one, 1047 00:58:38,560 --> 00:58:43,240 Speaker 3: he doesn't think his basketball abilities and his career has 1048 00:58:43,680 --> 00:58:48,480 Speaker 3: been validated because it's always attached to someone else. So 1049 00:58:50,680 --> 00:58:53,960 Speaker 3: it's it's just getting along, just getting over that in 1050 00:58:54,000 --> 00:58:58,480 Speaker 3: a professional uh sense. Is it's been difficult because you 1051 00:58:58,520 --> 00:59:00,080 Speaker 3: got to hear it all the time. Then now, of 1052 00:59:00,120 --> 00:59:02,360 Speaker 3: course the last dance drops and it paints you in 1053 00:59:02,480 --> 00:59:05,920 Speaker 3: a particular hue that you may have not seen yourself 1054 00:59:05,960 --> 00:59:10,480 Speaker 3: in and that opens up a wound, and then your 1055 00:59:10,520 --> 00:59:15,720 Speaker 3: ex wife is now dating the son of the person 1056 00:59:15,800 --> 00:59:25,640 Speaker 3: that that's opened that wound. Like, hello, we are human beings. 1057 00:59:25,680 --> 00:59:30,400 Speaker 3: We do have emotions, and it's a lash out like 1058 00:59:30,520 --> 00:59:34,920 Speaker 3: hurt people really hurt people. That that's how you know, 1059 00:59:35,160 --> 00:59:39,440 Speaker 3: you've we've been taught to fight what they hurt me. 1060 00:59:39,520 --> 00:59:42,720 Speaker 3: We got to hurt them back, you know. And and 1061 00:59:42,760 --> 00:59:44,360 Speaker 3: I think it's coming from a place of that. I 1062 00:59:44,360 --> 00:59:49,280 Speaker 3: think it's coming from a place of of of you know, 1063 00:59:50,200 --> 00:59:56,240 Speaker 3: Michael was great, but you don't know them, Michael, I know, wow, 1064 00:59:57,480 --> 01:00:00,479 Speaker 3: or maybe we do, well, we don't. 1065 01:00:00,520 --> 01:00:03,760 Speaker 2: I mean, how many how many how many people have 1066 01:00:03,920 --> 01:00:07,400 Speaker 2: you ever heard when when people are speaking publicly about 1067 01:00:07,440 --> 01:00:12,120 Speaker 2: Michael Jordan. How many of them say good things about 1068 01:00:12,160 --> 01:00:14,080 Speaker 2: anything other than basketball. 1069 01:00:15,960 --> 01:00:19,400 Speaker 3: Kobe spoke highly of Mike. Yeah, and they had a 1070 01:00:19,440 --> 01:00:23,880 Speaker 3: different relationship. I think that relationship Mike saw himself in Kobe, 1071 01:00:24,520 --> 01:00:27,840 Speaker 3: and so he was receptive come he was receptive off 1072 01:00:27,880 --> 01:00:31,480 Speaker 3: the court to Kobe because he saw so much of 1073 01:00:31,560 --> 01:00:32,680 Speaker 3: himself there. 1074 01:00:34,480 --> 01:00:36,880 Speaker 1: And I would argue that Kobe. 1075 01:00:37,000 --> 01:00:39,720 Speaker 2: I would argue that Kobe, and this is always maybe 1076 01:00:40,720 --> 01:00:44,120 Speaker 2: look what impressed me most about the guy and this 1077 01:00:44,280 --> 01:00:47,240 Speaker 2: is one of the greatest basketball players ever. But the 1078 01:00:47,280 --> 01:00:52,959 Speaker 2: way that Kobe changed the way people talked about him 1079 01:00:53,360 --> 01:00:56,400 Speaker 2: in the final six or seven years of his life. 1080 01:00:57,080 --> 01:01:01,520 Speaker 1: It was stunning, stunning. 1081 01:01:01,800 --> 01:01:04,400 Speaker 2: I mean, this is the man who'd done made Dwight 1082 01:01:04,440 --> 01:01:08,200 Speaker 2: Howard cry in the locker room. But by the time 1083 01:01:08,920 --> 01:01:11,840 Speaker 2: he was retired, by the time he had become a 1084 01:01:11,880 --> 01:01:15,360 Speaker 2: girl dad, by the time he was doing things in 1085 01:01:15,400 --> 01:01:19,080 Speaker 2: the entertainment industry, and by the time it came to 1086 01:01:19,200 --> 01:01:23,160 Speaker 2: his all too soon funeral, right, even Shack was up 1087 01:01:23,160 --> 01:01:28,560 Speaker 2: there as one of the most tenderhearted people speaking about 1088 01:01:28,920 --> 01:01:32,680 Speaker 2: Kobe Bryant. And I do think that as Kobe got 1089 01:01:32,720 --> 01:01:35,960 Speaker 2: toward the end of his career, and it was the 1090 01:01:36,000 --> 01:01:41,280 Speaker 2: social media age. I do think he felt like, okay, right, 1091 01:01:41,400 --> 01:01:45,320 Speaker 2: that stone cold killer mentality. You know, it served me well, 1092 01:01:46,400 --> 01:01:50,720 Speaker 2: but it might now serve me to sort of turn 1093 01:01:50,760 --> 01:01:53,160 Speaker 2: over a little bit of a new leaf, and he did. 1094 01:01:54,120 --> 01:01:56,720 Speaker 2: I don't know if Michael's ever done that. By the way, 1095 01:01:56,760 --> 01:01:59,160 Speaker 2: I'm not saying he needs to. He can do this 1096 01:01:59,240 --> 01:02:03,280 Speaker 2: however he wants to do it. But I like it 1097 01:02:03,400 --> 01:02:06,880 Speaker 2: strikes you the famous Hall of Fame speech where he 1098 01:02:07,040 --> 01:02:09,320 Speaker 2: just seemed to go through a list of people so 1099 01:02:09,360 --> 01:02:12,960 Speaker 2: that he can ha ha showed you. Now the next person, 1100 01:02:13,240 --> 01:02:17,520 Speaker 2: ha ha showed you. It's like, gosh, is there is 1101 01:02:17,560 --> 01:02:23,840 Speaker 2: there anything? What's the word accessible in there? 1102 01:02:25,720 --> 01:02:30,400 Speaker 3: I think the chip never left and Kobe for Michael's shoulder, 1103 01:02:30,960 --> 01:02:33,720 Speaker 3: and Kobe had an opportunity to let the chip go. 1104 01:02:35,600 --> 01:02:39,600 Speaker 3: He had an opportunity to let the chip go. I 1105 01:02:39,600 --> 01:02:44,360 Speaker 3: don't think there was much in Michael's life that he 1106 01:02:44,480 --> 01:02:49,760 Speaker 3: loved just as much as basketball, So when he was 1107 01:02:49,840 --> 01:02:52,920 Speaker 3: unable to continue to play basketball, that left a huge 1108 01:02:53,000 --> 01:02:55,640 Speaker 3: hole there. You can sew all the shoe shoes and 1109 01:02:55,640 --> 01:02:59,439 Speaker 3: sneakers you want, but if you can't do the thing 1110 01:02:59,560 --> 01:03:03,400 Speaker 3: you love of at the level you love it, then 1111 01:03:04,840 --> 01:03:07,400 Speaker 3: it's going to leave a hole there. If that hole 1112 01:03:07,640 --> 01:03:15,400 Speaker 3: isn't fulfilled or answered or are are in some way field, 1113 01:03:18,840 --> 01:03:23,400 Speaker 3: then you're gonna carry that with you. And and we 1114 01:03:23,400 --> 01:03:27,480 Speaker 3: we were seeing that Kobe didn't do that. Kobe found 1115 01:03:28,240 --> 01:03:32,280 Speaker 3: the love of pouring himself into into teaching basketball, his 1116 01:03:32,480 --> 01:03:38,680 Speaker 3: daughter or his daughters, also filmmaking, right, he had other 1117 01:03:38,840 --> 01:03:45,120 Speaker 3: passions that he put that same type of energy into. 1118 01:03:45,840 --> 01:03:52,320 Speaker 3: I don't believe Mike has and and and it's it's 1119 01:03:52,800 --> 01:03:56,240 Speaker 3: that's a lonely place to be. That's a lonely place 1120 01:03:56,280 --> 01:03:56,480 Speaker 3: to be. 1121 01:03:57,200 --> 01:03:59,800 Speaker 1: That's what it looks like, you know. That's what it 1122 01:03:59,840 --> 01:04:03,640 Speaker 1: looks like. I don't know, but that's what it looks like. 1123 01:04:04,440 --> 01:04:07,160 Speaker 2: And it begs a question, and I think I know 1124 01:04:07,200 --> 01:04:10,280 Speaker 2: how you'll answer it, but I'll ask it to you 1125 01:04:10,440 --> 01:04:15,280 Speaker 2: after we answer all of the other questions involved in life. 1126 01:04:15,320 --> 01:04:17,720 Speaker 1: And that's that's what Steve de Sager does, all of 1127 01:04:17,760 --> 01:04:20,040 Speaker 1: them every hour.

They've been outscored by over two 1178 01:06:55,040 --> 01:06:57,840 Speaker 6: hundred runs already this year, which I saw the top 1179 01:06:57,840 --> 01:07:01,040 Speaker 6: ten list in baseball history. They're on it to be 1180 01:07:01,080 --> 01:07:03,440 Speaker 6: outscored by that much this early in a season, and 1181 01:07:03,520 --> 01:07:05,440 Speaker 6: all the other teams on the list are from the 1182 01:07:05,480 --> 01:07:06,320 Speaker 6: eighteen hundreds. 1183 01:07:06,360 --> 01:07:07,000 Speaker 1: Oh my god. 1184 01:07:07,080 --> 01:07:10,280 Speaker 2: But it's also it's also sort of dwarfed by or 1185 01:07:10,320 --> 01:07:13,160 Speaker 2: at least it's it's under the umbrella of what the 1186 01:07:13,240 --> 01:07:16,800 Speaker 2: ownership has done, definitely setting them. 1187 01:07:16,720 --> 01:07:17,160 Speaker 1: Up for this. 1188 01:07:17,720 --> 01:07:23,920 Speaker 2: And if you remove like actual crimes or social unfairness, 1189 01:07:24,640 --> 01:07:29,640 Speaker 2: name me something that's been worse just in terms of 1190 01:07:29,680 --> 01:07:33,320 Speaker 2: sports business than these Oakland A's. 1191 01:07:33,400 --> 01:07:37,920 Speaker 6: Owners, aside from Major League You mean, well, because that's 1192 01:07:38,000 --> 01:07:39,400 Speaker 6: kind of what's happening. 1193 01:07:38,960 --> 01:07:43,840 Speaker 2: Correct, correct, right? But that you know wasn't real. Yes, 1194 01:07:44,920 --> 01:07:46,840 Speaker 2: I mean it was a lot of people go Art 1195 01:07:46,880 --> 01:07:49,320 Speaker 2: Modell middle of the night. I'm like, this is worse 1196 01:07:50,120 --> 01:07:53,520 Speaker 2: like Art Modell to me middle of the night. Art 1197 01:07:53,560 --> 01:07:56,400 Speaker 2: Modell was like, how you're told to rip the band 1198 01:07:56,400 --> 01:08:00,479 Speaker 2: aid off really fast, and this is more like someone 1199 01:08:00,480 --> 01:08:02,600 Speaker 2: who's just gonna sit there, put the knife in your 1200 01:08:02,600 --> 01:08:03,640 Speaker 2: back and then stare at you. 1201 01:08:03,920 --> 01:08:07,320 Speaker 6: I think it was yesterday's a's lineup. It's was I 1202 01:08:07,320 --> 01:08:10,280 Speaker 6: think it was seven of the nine batters we're hitting 1203 01:08:10,320 --> 01:08:12,960 Speaker 6: about two twenty or less, a lot below two hundred. 1204 01:08:13,520 --> 01:08:16,240 Speaker 6: They're just not fielding a major league team. 1205 01:08:16,600 --> 01:08:18,639 Speaker 3: Well, I got a couple nine and eight nine year 1206 01:08:18,640 --> 01:08:22,920 Speaker 3: olds man who playing championship base championship. 1207 01:08:24,160 --> 01:08:27,879 Speaker 2: Yeah, call call John Fisher, you want some championship. He 1208 01:08:27,880 --> 01:08:29,519 Speaker 2: He'll probably be like, no, I. 1209 01:08:32,000 --> 01:08:34,400 Speaker 3: Know that, I know, I know those guys. Show up, 1210 01:08:34,680 --> 01:08:37,840 Speaker 3: those kids, Oh, show up and play hard. 1211 01:08:38,800 --> 01:08:44,920 Speaker 2: Oh gosh, that's funny. That's funny right there. All right, 1212 01:08:45,080 --> 01:08:46,240 Speaker 2: we can get to a little bit of that a 1213 01:08:46,280 --> 01:08:46,960 Speaker 2: little bit later. 1214 01:08:47,000 --> 01:08:48,880 Speaker 1: But I here's what I wanted to ask you, and 1215 01:08:48,920 --> 01:08:50,360 Speaker 1: I think I know how you answer it. 1216 01:08:52,640 --> 01:08:58,080 Speaker 2: Let's say you could be the goat and pick whatever 1217 01:08:58,080 --> 01:09:04,040 Speaker 2: position or sport you want. You're the goat, but you 1218 01:09:04,240 --> 01:09:10,960 Speaker 2: kind of got to sacrifice like everything else, everything else. 1219 01:09:11,920 --> 01:09:15,760 Speaker 2: You might you might need to sacrifice the love of 1220 01:09:15,800 --> 01:09:18,760 Speaker 2: your spouse. You might need to sacrifice at least some 1221 01:09:19,000 --> 01:09:23,720 Speaker 2: of the relationship with your kids, and you probably need 1222 01:09:23,720 --> 01:09:26,840 Speaker 2: to sacrifice really really caring about friends. 1223 01:09:27,600 --> 01:09:31,479 Speaker 1: Like you kind of got to be alone. Would you 1224 01:09:31,520 --> 01:09:31,800 Speaker 1: do it? 1225 01:09:34,000 --> 01:09:34,479 Speaker 3: Honestly? 1226 01:09:36,560 --> 01:09:38,840 Speaker 1: No? Yeah no. 1227 01:09:39,439 --> 01:09:43,400 Speaker 3: And the reason I say that is I'm nowhere near 1228 01:09:43,560 --> 01:09:48,640 Speaker 3: the goat status. Never have said that that that I 1229 01:09:48,720 --> 01:09:54,519 Speaker 3: would or could have ever been. But I'm extremely happy 1230 01:09:55,439 --> 01:09:59,160 Speaker 3: about how I've my career has gone, the things that 1231 01:09:59,200 --> 01:10:01,519 Speaker 3: I've been able to do, the things that I've been 1232 01:10:01,560 --> 01:10:04,559 Speaker 3: able to experience playing a game that I love at 1233 01:10:04,560 --> 01:10:07,599 Speaker 3: the level for as long as I have, those things 1234 01:10:07,640 --> 01:10:12,880 Speaker 3: are extremely fulfilling to me. What's more fulfilling than any 1235 01:10:12,920 --> 01:10:17,720 Speaker 3: of that is my family and my friends. And that's 1236 01:10:17,760 --> 01:10:18,800 Speaker 3: the God's honest truth. 1237 01:10:18,920 --> 01:10:19,200 Speaker 1: Like I. 1238 01:10:21,160 --> 01:10:27,320 Speaker 3: Wouldn't sacrifice that, the level of family and where we 1239 01:10:27,479 --> 01:10:32,360 Speaker 3: are as a family right now for anything, for any award, 1240 01:10:32,439 --> 01:10:35,879 Speaker 3: for any MVP, for any amount of money or anything 1241 01:10:36,000 --> 01:10:37,880 Speaker 3: like that. Brother, Because money can come and go. You 1242 01:10:37,960 --> 01:10:40,080 Speaker 3: can be the richest man in the world. Tomorrow, something 1243 01:10:40,080 --> 01:10:46,720 Speaker 3: can happen unforeseen and the guy working at Chevrons has 1244 01:10:46,760 --> 01:10:51,000 Speaker 3: more in the bank. It happens, it can happen, and 1245 01:10:51,000 --> 01:10:55,400 Speaker 3: what do you have after that? And so I wouldn't 1246 01:10:55,400 --> 01:10:58,520 Speaker 3: sacrifice the after for the now for anybody. 1247 01:10:59,840 --> 01:11:02,559 Speaker 2: I mean, I'm sure if Michael were sitting right here, 1248 01:11:02,640 --> 01:11:04,599 Speaker 2: right now, he'd be like, that's not what I did, 1249 01:11:05,200 --> 01:11:06,680 Speaker 2: and that's not what my life is like. 1250 01:11:07,800 --> 01:11:09,960 Speaker 1: But damn it if it doesn't look and feel that way. 1251 01:11:10,160 --> 01:11:12,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, you know what I mean, Like the man, the 1252 01:11:12,240 --> 01:11:16,000 Speaker 2: man's the greatest of all time, and and like his 1253 01:11:16,280 --> 01:11:24,360 Speaker 2: teammates don't want to hang so like that's amazing.

Tom Brady 1305 01:14:41,080 --> 01:14:47,160 Speaker 2: is not playing. The Raiders are tanking. Potentially, sure, Jimmy. 1306 01:14:46,880 --> 01:14:47,960 Speaker 1: Garoppolo might be healthy. 1307 01:14:47,960 --> 01:14:49,519 Speaker 2: He might go out there and do what he has 1308 01:14:49,560 --> 01:14:51,719 Speaker 2: always done in the NFL, which is win football games. 1309 01:14:51,720 --> 01:14:55,000 Speaker 2: He might or he might be hurt. They might get 1310 01:14:55,040 --> 01:14:58,920 Speaker 2: out from underneath that contract. And it is very possible, 1311 01:14:59,000 --> 01:15:01,960 Speaker 2: seemingly that people we've never heard of before will be 1312 01:15:02,000 --> 01:15:04,800 Speaker 2: quarterbacking the Las Vegas Raiders this year. And why not 1313 01:15:04,920 --> 01:15:08,640 Speaker 2: because Caleb Williams. That was pretty much that was the 1314 01:15:08,680 --> 01:15:10,360 Speaker 2: take last week. Do I have it about right? 1315 01:15:10,520 --> 01:15:14,040 Speaker 1: That's right? That's correct, all right, is anybody joining him? 1316 01:15:14,240 --> 01:15:17,280 Speaker 2: I was thinking about what you said, and if Caleb 1317 01:15:17,320 --> 01:15:19,920 Speaker 2: Williams is that big of a deal, if he is 1318 01:15:20,000 --> 01:15:23,360 Speaker 2: a sucked for luck type of a player, right, one 1319 01:15:23,360 --> 01:15:28,080 Speaker 2: of these players that you're going to automatically tank for 1320 01:15:28,240 --> 01:15:33,400 Speaker 2: wem Bin Yama, if that's who he is, then there 1321 01:15:33,439 --> 01:15:35,880 Speaker 2: should be there should be a line. 1322 01:15:36,760 --> 01:15:40,240 Speaker 3: There should be a line of teams going for this. No, yeah, 1323 01:15:40,280 --> 01:15:46,479 Speaker 3: you're absolutely right. Okay, So who are they? I've got 1324 01:15:46,479 --> 01:15:47,840 Speaker 3: some candidates, Beau. 1325 01:15:47,880 --> 01:15:50,599 Speaker 1: I was just looking. I'm like, okay, who who. 1326 01:15:50,680 --> 01:15:56,719 Speaker 2: Is essentially setting themselves up to like, either we found 1327 01:15:56,720 --> 01:15:59,400 Speaker 2: something and we have a nice season, but if we don't, 1328 01:15:59,680 --> 01:16:02,920 Speaker 2: we're going to go ahead and let that ride. The 1329 01:16:02,920 --> 01:16:05,960 Speaker 2: first team that comes to mind is the Washington Commanders, 1330 01:16:05,960 --> 01:16:08,519 Speaker 2: who have decided that Sam howl is amazing even though 1331 01:16:08,560 --> 01:16:09,880 Speaker 2: he's never played football before. 1332 01:16:10,000 --> 01:16:12,800 Speaker 3: First team that popped onto my brain. 1333 01:16:14,800 --> 01:16:16,400 Speaker 1: Absolutely Washington Commander yep. 1334 01:16:16,520 --> 01:16:22,240 Speaker 3: Right, okay, absolutely in that division? Yes, right, I mean 1335 01:16:22,680 --> 01:16:26,360 Speaker 3: Eagles are there. Everybody has their quarterbacks, they're. 1336 01:16:26,160 --> 01:16:29,559 Speaker 2: All playoff teams, they've all got their quarterback. Yes, So 1337 01:16:30,880 --> 01:16:33,479 Speaker 2: that makes sense that Washington is not going to be like, 1338 01:16:33,640 --> 01:16:37,760 Speaker 2: let's go let's go find someone instead, No, go with 1339 01:16:37,800 --> 01:16:40,160 Speaker 2: the young guy. And if the young guy's good, cool, 1340 01:16:40,200 --> 01:16:43,080 Speaker 2: you found someone. If he's not, then we're going to 1341 01:16:43,120 --> 01:16:47,120 Speaker 2: be in the Derby Atlanta Falcons. 1342 01:16:47,439 --> 01:16:53,920 Speaker 1: Are they doing that? Yes? Okay? Yes? 1343 01:16:54,040 --> 01:16:57,520 Speaker 3: About the in a in an easily winnable division. 1344 01:16:58,760 --> 01:17:01,240 Speaker 1: Right, well, what about the Bucks? 1345 01:17:03,320 --> 01:17:06,519 Speaker 3: They're in the same boat. They're in the same boat, 1346 01:17:06,560 --> 01:17:11,280 Speaker 3: Baker Mayfield is they'll be trying to give this division away? 1347 01:17:11,520 --> 01:17:14,360 Speaker 3: Is what hard to do? Is the problem? 1348 01:17:14,520 --> 01:17:17,240 Speaker 2: The problem with trying to get the number one pick 1349 01:17:17,280 --> 01:17:20,920 Speaker 2: out of that division is you know everybody's bad, so 1350 01:17:21,040 --> 01:17:23,960 Speaker 2: you're gonna you're gonna automatically get some wins. 1351 01:17:24,040 --> 01:17:29,559 Speaker 3: Yeah, okay, Green Bay Packers what okay? 1352 01:17:29,800 --> 01:17:31,800 Speaker 2: That was one of the two teams I wanted to 1353 01:17:31,840 --> 01:17:36,280 Speaker 2: ask you about Green Bay Packers. Do you think that's 1354 01:17:36,320 --> 01:17:39,360 Speaker 2: what's behind the Jordan Love faith? 1355 01:17:40,479 --> 01:17:42,840 Speaker 3: I think they like Jordan Love. I think they want 1356 01:17:42,960 --> 01:17:47,799 Speaker 3: Jordan Love to work. But are they're okay if he doesn't? 1357 01:17:49,200 --> 01:17:51,800 Speaker 3: Because in that division, Detroit is going to be better, 1358 01:17:51,880 --> 01:17:55,080 Speaker 3: Minnesota is going to be Minnesota, and the Chicago Bears 1359 01:17:55,080 --> 01:17:58,920 Speaker 3: are a big question mark with Justin Fields. Is Justin 1360 01:17:58,960 --> 01:18:02,880 Speaker 3: Fields going to be batter? I would say he is 1361 01:18:02,920 --> 01:18:08,600 Speaker 3: going to be so you know, is it. You know, 1362 01:18:08,640 --> 01:18:14,080 Speaker 3: it's a two team race for the bottom. And I 1363 01:18:14,080 --> 01:18:18,240 Speaker 3: think Green Bay is okay with Jordan Love not being 1364 01:18:19,080 --> 01:18:19,639 Speaker 3: the guy. 1365 01:18:20,560 --> 01:18:20,960 Speaker 1: Mm hmm. 1366 01:18:22,560 --> 01:18:25,000 Speaker 3: And I think you know, all of the trade rumors 1367 01:18:25,040 --> 01:18:28,200 Speaker 3: with Justin Fields and and all of these, all of 1368 01:18:28,240 --> 01:18:31,040 Speaker 3: that setting up for we gave him a shot. He's 1369 01:18:31,120 --> 01:18:34,000 Speaker 3: not the guy for the Chicago Bears. Right, it's all there, 1370 01:18:35,160 --> 01:18:36,599 Speaker 3: all the noise in the off season. What are they 1371 01:18:36,600 --> 01:18:38,839 Speaker 3: gonna do with the draft pick, all of these things. 1372 01:18:40,400 --> 01:18:42,840 Speaker 3: It's it's right there. Well, you know, we gave him opportunity, 1373 01:18:42,920 --> 01:18:46,320 Speaker 3: it just didn't whatever, blah blah blah, then you make 1374 01:18:46,360 --> 01:18:46,800 Speaker 3: that move. 1375 01:18:47,720 --> 01:18:55,240 Speaker 1: Yeah. The AFC South is interesting because everybody went and 1376 01:18:55,240 --> 01:18:56,600 Speaker 1: got their young quarterback. 1377 01:18:57,360 --> 01:19:00,679 Speaker 2: So that feels like, even though they may be bad, 1378 01:19:01,439 --> 01:19:04,160 Speaker 2: let's say they end up in that early spot, they're 1379 01:19:04,200 --> 01:19:06,640 Speaker 2: not going to be Caleb Shooters, not if you just 1380 01:19:06,760 --> 01:19:11,880 Speaker 2: draft CJ. Stroud, not if you just drafted Anthony Richardson. 1381 01:19:12,240 --> 01:19:12,479 Speaker 1: Right. 1382 01:19:12,920 --> 01:19:16,160 Speaker 3: Yeah, but we've seen teams move off first round. 1383 01:19:16,320 --> 01:19:19,840 Speaker 1: Sure, the Cardinals. The Cardinals did one year, they did 1384 01:19:19,840 --> 01:19:22,880 Speaker 1: they did. Yeah, yeah, I get that. Well, what about 1385 01:19:22,920 --> 01:19:26,240 Speaker 1: the Cardinals, by the way, they just paid Kyler. Yeah, 1386 01:19:26,240 --> 01:19:27,040 Speaker 1: they just paid. 1387 01:19:26,840 --> 01:19:31,519 Speaker 3: Kyler, but they're not trust me. They do that in heartbeat. 1388 01:19:32,560 --> 01:19:33,599 Speaker 3: They do that in heartbeat. 1389 01:19:34,360 --> 01:19:38,120 Speaker 1: What about the Los Angeles Rams dingo ding ding ding 1390 01:19:38,200 --> 01:19:41,200 Speaker 1: ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding.

You live in one of those cities, 1482 01:25:22,080 --> 01:25:24,320 Speaker 1: New York, Boston. You don't even come out here with 1483 01:25:24,360 --> 01:25:25,160 Speaker 1: your rebuild. 1484 01:25:25,600 --> 01:25:28,640 Speaker 2: This all costs way too much to be talking about rebuild. 1485 01:25:29,280 --> 01:25:34,480 Speaker 2: Get yourself together and go play good football or basketball 1486 01:25:34,640 --> 01:25:36,559 Speaker 2: or baseball or whatever. 1487 01:25:37,240 --> 01:25:41,240 Speaker 1: But man, the Rams are just quiet. 1488 01:25:40,800 --> 01:25:43,320 Speaker 3: Aren't they. They're just quiet. 1489 01:25:44,080 --> 01:25:48,160 Speaker 1: They're just over there with Like Matt Stafford might have 1490 01:25:48,200 --> 01:25:50,559 Speaker 1: a career threatening injury, but we're not going to really 1491 01:25:50,560 --> 01:25:55,599 Speaker 1: talk about it. Well sure, yeah, no, no, no, he's fine. 1492 01:25:55,720 --> 01:25:59,519 Speaker 1: He's fine. But wait I read Ian Rappaport yet, No, 1493 01:25:59,720 --> 01:26:03,240 Speaker 1: he's find okay, if you say so. And then here's 1494 01:26:03,240 --> 01:26:08,200 Speaker 1: Sean McVay. Yeah, let me go do some TV. Just 1495 01:26:08,320 --> 01:26:13,479 Speaker 1: you know, I probably retire. Nah, I'm not gonna retire. Why. 1496 01:26:13,840 --> 01:26:17,000 Speaker 1: I don't know. They're just not into it, Aaron Donald. 1497 01:26:17,120 --> 01:26:20,640 Speaker 1: I might retire, Nah, I'm not gonna retire. What is 1498 01:26:20,680 --> 01:26:22,080 Speaker 1: going on with these people? 1499 01:26:22,240 --> 01:26:25,320 Speaker 2: Like they if you were in a relationship with one 1500 01:26:25,320 --> 01:26:27,920 Speaker 2: of the Rams, you would shake them by now, So 1501 01:26:28,040 --> 01:26:29,640 Speaker 2: you're terrible communicators. 1502 01:26:30,320 --> 01:26:34,120 Speaker 1: So you think that it's all based on that, Yeah, 1503 01:26:34,120 --> 01:26:34,320 Speaker 1: I do. 1504 01:26:34,439 --> 01:26:37,040 Speaker 3: I think there's nothing to see here. Everybody pay attention 1505 01:26:37,120 --> 01:26:46,000 Speaker 3: to everywhere else. And I think this is the market 1506 01:26:46,240 --> 01:26:51,559 Speaker 3: where they want in need Caleb Williams no matter what 1507 01:26:51,600 --> 01:26:54,120 Speaker 3: he does, it sc and they are already paying him. 1508 01:26:54,160 --> 01:26:55,080 Speaker 1: I would estimate. 1509 01:26:55,240 --> 01:26:56,360 Speaker 3: I don't know, and I don't want to throw a 1510 01:26:56,439 --> 01:26:58,880 Speaker 3: number out there and make it seem crazy, but they're 1511 01:26:58,920 --> 01:27:01,160 Speaker 3: already paying him, right it was the fifteen twenty million 1512 01:27:01,200 --> 01:27:06,040 Speaker 3: dollars to play his next year at se through nil. 1513 01:27:06,120 --> 01:27:08,599 Speaker 3: I would what do you think I would? I would 1514 01:27:08,600 --> 01:27:13,920 Speaker 3: guesstimate because he could truly sit out the entire year 1515 01:27:14,120 --> 01:27:17,160 Speaker 3: and be the first pick in the draft YEP. So 1516 01:27:17,840 --> 01:27:22,559 Speaker 3: it's got to make sense for him, and I think 1517 01:27:22,800 --> 01:27:28,479 Speaker 3: they would want nothing more than to have him at 1518 01:27:28,479 --> 01:27:34,720 Speaker 3: SOELFI for the next twelve years. And I think they're 1519 01:27:34,760 --> 01:27:39,679 Speaker 3: okay with the season being just I wouldn't be surprised 1520 01:27:39,720 --> 01:27:42,000 Speaker 3: if Matthew came out the first week and was like, ah, 1521 01:27:42,360 --> 01:27:46,439 Speaker 3: just not just not there, doesn't feel right. It's not that, no, 1522 01:27:46,520 --> 01:27:52,799 Speaker 3: Jalen Ramsey, you know, it's just you know, Aaron Donald'll 1523 01:27:52,800 --> 01:27:54,800 Speaker 3: be fine. He makes fifty million dollars a year or 1524 01:27:54,800 --> 01:27:55,719 Speaker 3: whatever it is. 1525 01:27:55,920 --> 01:27:56,559 Speaker 1: It'll be fine. 1526 01:27:56,560 --> 01:27:59,120 Speaker 2: A couple of tackles, right, you know, A couple of 1527 01:27:59,160 --> 01:28:01,120 Speaker 2: plays off man be one throwne helmet. 1528 01:28:01,200 --> 01:28:02,640 Speaker 1: I don't know what you'll get to. 1529 01:28:02,720 --> 01:28:05,719 Speaker 3: You'll get to get you know, the young offensive lineman 1530 01:28:05,720 --> 01:28:10,680 Speaker 3: and the younger players another year of experience. So you know, 1531 01:28:10,760 --> 01:28:13,200 Speaker 3: it's a business man, and this is la. You know, 1532 01:28:13,520 --> 01:28:15,720 Speaker 3: this is this is this is a business. 1533 01:28:15,960 --> 01:28:19,719 Speaker 2: Hey, I get it, but it's fascinating that it's even 1534 01:28:19,760 --> 01:28:22,840 Speaker 2: been able to go this far. Uh. I Like the 1535 01:28:23,479 --> 01:28:27,559 Speaker 2: second the Warrior season ended, the Bay Area fan base 1536 01:28:27,760 --> 01:28:32,360 Speaker 2: is re obsessed with the quarterback position. Brock gonna be healthy, 1537 01:28:32,520 --> 01:28:35,040 Speaker 2: Trey Lance never gonna get a shot? What the hell 1538 01:28:35,120 --> 01:28:37,880 Speaker 2: is Sam Darnold doing here? What's going on? What do 1539 01:28:37,880 --> 01:28:40,880 Speaker 2: you who do you like? Who should start? Let's freak out. 1540 01:28:41,240 --> 01:28:45,880 Speaker 2: It's June and it's barely June. Party's not gonna even 1541 01:28:45,960 --> 01:28:48,519 Speaker 2: be on a football field for at least two and 1542 01:28:48,600 --> 01:28:52,479 Speaker 2: a half more months. And everybody is fixated on it. 1543 01:28:52,920 --> 01:28:56,280 Speaker 2: And why because it's a quarterback. It's what we do 1544 01:28:56,920 --> 01:29:02,880 Speaker 2: the quarterback, right like Aaron Rodgers of the Jets, Patrick Mahomes, 1545 01:29:03,000 --> 01:29:05,280 Speaker 2: Josh Allen. Look at what we all just did with 1546 01:29:05,439 --> 01:29:10,920 Speaker 2: Lamar Jackson. It's the damn quarterback and the Rams won 1547 01:29:10,960 --> 01:29:15,519 Speaker 2: a Super Bowl and now for about fourteen months. They're 1548 01:29:15,560 --> 01:29:21,519 Speaker 2: just kind of like, eh, I don't know, and everyone's like, okay, 1549 01:29:23,280 --> 01:29:27,360 Speaker 2: if this were, if this were anywhere else, I like, 1550 01:29:27,760 --> 01:29:29,879 Speaker 2: you're not allowed to keep it this quiet. 1551 01:29:29,960 --> 01:29:34,200 Speaker 1: That's not how it works. It's the oddest thing. They 1552 01:29:34,360 --> 01:29:35,400 Speaker 1: really are tight liped. 1553 01:29:35,400 --> 01:29:37,720 Speaker 3: They're like, hey, we just we're gonna just keep our 1554 01:29:37,760 --> 01:29:41,080 Speaker 3: head down and go to work and we'll see how 1555 01:29:41,120 --> 01:29:42,160 Speaker 3: this thing shakes out. 1556 01:29:42,600 --> 01:29:45,080 Speaker 1: Right, just like, I don't know where you went. 1557 01:29:45,560 --> 01:29:51,240 Speaker 2: It's not here, And I was like, okay, Like Matt Stafford, 1558 01:29:51,600 --> 01:29:54,000 Speaker 2: think about it. He's won a super Bowl and then 1559 01:29:54,080 --> 01:29:58,280 Speaker 2: give me, give me everything Stafford since fourteen months since 1560 01:29:58,280 --> 01:30:01,360 Speaker 2: he won a super Bowl, like the ultimate moment for 1561 01:30:01,439 --> 01:30:05,080 Speaker 2: his career. He was in jail in Detroit for a decade, 1562 01:30:05,560 --> 01:30:08,679 Speaker 2: finally gets a new spot, wins the ball right away, 1563 01:30:08,800 --> 01:30:13,840 Speaker 2: and since then, I feel like we've barely seen him. 1564 01:30:14,000 --> 01:30:17,280 Speaker 3: Oh yeah, no one has seen him. He hasn't been anywhere. 1565 01:30:19,040 --> 01:30:22,679 Speaker 3: Removes on all of the pizza commercials, the Little Caesar 1566 01:30:22,720 --> 01:30:26,360 Speaker 3: Pizza pizza commercials and nothing there was. 1567 01:30:26,800 --> 01:30:32,120 Speaker 1: Then there was the phone, the phone everything.

Okay, those were funny, 1577 01:31:00,920 --> 01:31:03,320 Speaker 2: But the whole division is just a big head scratcher. 1578 01:31:03,439 --> 01:31:08,040 Speaker 2: Look at this, Look at this Geno Smith. They wrote 1579 01:31:08,080 --> 01:31:11,040 Speaker 2: me off, but I didn't right back. Forty nine ers 1580 01:31:11,040 --> 01:31:13,280 Speaker 2: are moving up number three. Overall, we're gonna pick a 1581 01:31:13,360 --> 01:31:14,840 Speaker 2: quarterback and never play him. 1582 01:31:15,479 --> 01:31:19,280 Speaker 1: Let's get Sam Darnold in here too, mister irrelevant. Rams 1583 01:31:19,320 --> 01:31:22,720 Speaker 1: are just like, sh we don't have a quarterback.

Okay, I 1621 01:33:27,560 --> 01:33:30,479 Speaker 2: don't think we've ever done this before. The more that 1622 01:33:30,560 --> 01:33:32,800 Speaker 2: I think about it, I wonder if this is why. 1623 01:33:33,280 --> 01:33:37,080 Speaker 2: And I don't mean anything by this, I don't there's 1624 01:33:37,120 --> 01:33:40,960 Speaker 2: no issue here. But I think the fact that shohey 1625 01:33:40,960 --> 01:33:44,439 Speaker 2: Otani does not speak the language means that we're about 1626 01:33:44,439 --> 01:33:48,240 Speaker 2: to have the quietest largest free agency. 1627 01:33:48,160 --> 01:33:49,200 Speaker 1: In the history of ever. 1628 01:33:50,160 --> 01:33:52,360 Speaker 2: We all know he's going to get the biggest contract 1629 01:33:52,680 --> 01:33:58,320 Speaker 2: in baseball's history. But compare this to Aaron Judge. Just 1630 01:33:59,000 --> 01:34:03,479 Speaker 2: I mean, wow, that was only six months ago. Compare 1631 01:34:03,479 --> 01:34:07,760 Speaker 2: it to Aaron Judge, where every word in front of 1632 01:34:07,800 --> 01:34:10,840 Speaker 2: the New York media dissected what did he mean here? 1633 01:34:11,000 --> 01:34:13,640 Speaker 2: What did he mean there? He's out in San Francisco, 1634 01:34:13,720 --> 01:34:16,280 Speaker 2: he's at a hotel. Now, he's flying to San Diego, 1635 01:34:17,240 --> 01:34:20,400 Speaker 2: like every move was dissected. And sure, maybe in the 1636 01:34:20,439 --> 01:34:22,960 Speaker 2: winter meetings the same will happen to show Hey, but 1637 01:34:23,680 --> 01:34:26,599 Speaker 2: the New York media was asking Aaron about it throughout 1638 01:34:26,640 --> 01:34:30,040 Speaker 2: the season last year as well. No one's doing that here. 1639 01:34:30,520 --> 01:34:32,559 Speaker 2: Maybe they are and they're just not getting an answer. 1640 01:34:33,640 --> 01:34:39,960 Speaker 2: I'm not in the Anaheim clubhouse, but if everybody's going 1641 01:34:40,000 --> 01:34:44,320 Speaker 2: to agree that it starts at five hundred million dollars, 1642 01:34:45,720 --> 01:34:52,960 Speaker 2: which is incredible, the silence right now is absolutely deafening, 1643 01:34:53,920 --> 01:34:55,479 Speaker 2: And I wonder, what do you think about this? 1644 01:34:56,280 --> 01:35:00,160 Speaker 1: Since we don't hear from him, we're just left to guess. 1645 01:35:00,720 --> 01:35:03,680 Speaker 2: What's it gonna take for the Angels to even be 1646 01:35:03,760 --> 01:35:06,880 Speaker 2: a consideration with regard to show. 1647 01:35:06,920 --> 01:35:12,719 Speaker 3: Hey, I don't I don't think there's there's any consideration there. 1648 01:35:14,400 --> 01:35:16,439 Speaker 3: You think there's no chance. No, I don't think there's 1649 01:35:16,479 --> 01:35:24,639 Speaker 3: a chance. I'm sure he wants the money. The money's coming, 1650 01:35:27,360 --> 01:35:30,720 Speaker 3: but I think he wants a bigger stage. I think 1651 01:35:30,760 --> 01:35:35,200 Speaker 3: baseball needs him to have a bigger stage. He has 1652 01:35:35,240 --> 01:35:41,200 Speaker 3: a commercial out, a new Balance commercial. First of all, terrible, terrible, 1653 01:35:43,960 --> 01:35:49,080 Speaker 3: This is terrible, right, And I had said something that 1654 01:35:49,160 --> 01:35:52,120 Speaker 3: somebody had tweeted me of I was saying that, you know, 1655 01:35:52,120 --> 01:35:54,479 Speaker 3: I asked my wife, you know, did they know who 1656 01:35:54,520 --> 01:35:55,000 Speaker 3: that was? 1657 01:35:55,360 --> 01:35:56,559 Speaker 1: She? Did she know who that was? 1658 01:35:56,600 --> 01:36:00,599 Speaker 3: She was like No, I asked my kids, No, No, granted, 1659 01:36:00,840 --> 01:36:05,240 Speaker 3: my you know, wife, and we don't watch a lot 1660 01:36:05,240 --> 01:36:10,040 Speaker 3: of baseball. We watch some, but not a lot. But 1661 01:36:11,320 --> 01:36:14,559 Speaker 3: I was making the point that he's the best player 1662 01:36:14,560 --> 01:36:21,639 Speaker 3: in the MLB arguably, and there is no marketing, real 1663 01:36:21,760 --> 01:36:26,960 Speaker 3: marketing campaign around them are fanfare because when you look 1664 01:36:26,960 --> 01:36:30,599 Speaker 3: at the faces of the other leagues, right, when you 1665 01:36:30,640 --> 01:36:38,680 Speaker 3: look at Patrick Mahomes internationally, you look at Lebron James, 1666 01:36:41,000 --> 01:36:42,800 Speaker 3: do you know, whether you watch the sport or not, 1667 01:36:43,040 --> 01:36:46,160 Speaker 3: you know who they are because they've been marketed and 1668 01:36:46,200 --> 01:36:50,519 Speaker 3: branded that and Baseball isn't doing that or hasn't found 1669 01:36:50,560 --> 01:36:56,320 Speaker 3: a way to market their face of the league to 1670 01:36:56,400 --> 01:37:03,040 Speaker 3: the masses. And that new balance commercial that's not gonna 1671 01:37:03,040 --> 01:37:03,360 Speaker 3: do it? 1672 01:37:05,600 --> 01:37:06,640 Speaker 1: Well, what. 1673 01:37:08,280 --> 01:37:12,400 Speaker 2: How does the fact that he doesn't speak the language 1674 01:37:12,479 --> 01:37:14,479 Speaker 2: fact into this huge right? 1675 01:37:14,600 --> 01:37:15,920 Speaker 1: So what can they do? 1676 01:37:16,080 --> 01:37:20,400 Speaker 2: Baseball's never been good at this before they had a 1677 01:37:20,479 --> 01:37:25,040 Speaker 2: best player in the game in Anaheim already did nothing 1678 01:37:25,160 --> 01:37:29,160 Speaker 2: with it. But even he he shares. 1679 01:37:28,800 --> 01:37:30,439 Speaker 1: In the blame people that if you want to use 1680 01:37:30,479 --> 01:37:31,960 Speaker 1: the word he didn't want it. 1681 01:37:32,000 --> 01:37:34,560 Speaker 3: He doesn't want it, all right, he doesn't want he 1682 01:37:34,680 --> 01:37:36,639 Speaker 3: wants it, But isn't it Are you sure? 1683 01:37:36,840 --> 01:37:37,479 Speaker 1: How do we know? 1684 01:37:37,920 --> 01:37:40,080 Speaker 3: I think he does because he's a showman. This is 1685 01:37:40,280 --> 01:37:42,439 Speaker 3: I mean, he relishes and he loved come on, man, 1686 01:37:42,920 --> 01:37:45,320 Speaker 3: but he has everything.

And somebody gotta step up up 1705 01:39:00,240 --> 01:39:05,080 Speaker 3: and stand up and think outside the box. He doesn't. 1706 01:39:05,240 --> 01:39:08,599 Speaker 3: He's in English is not his first language. So let's 1707 01:39:08,600 --> 01:39:14,800 Speaker 3: speak for him. Let's show what he does. Let's make 1708 01:39:14,840 --> 01:39:17,160 Speaker 3: it known that this. I mean, you want to talk 1709 01:39:17,160 --> 01:39:22,280 Speaker 3: about one of the most unbelievable athletes. How many pictures 1710 01:39:22,280 --> 01:39:25,760 Speaker 3: we got in the league right now? Who can pitch? 1711 01:39:26,520 --> 01:39:28,519 Speaker 3: Who can pitch you? No hitter and hit over three hundred? 1712 01:39:29,479 --> 01:39:33,000 Speaker 3: We got one?

Should be his logo, his symbol? 1716 01:39:41,240 --> 01:39:41,479 Speaker 1: Right. 1717 01:39:42,040 --> 01:39:45,040 Speaker 2: I also know, though, the way your brain works, like 1718 01:39:45,080 --> 01:39:47,800 Speaker 2: because you've said this now number of times, and I 1719 01:39:47,840 --> 01:39:50,720 Speaker 2: have no doubt that there will be conversations. But I 1720 01:39:50,760 --> 01:39:53,280 Speaker 2: think the fan thinks about this and goes, well, where 1721 01:39:53,320 --> 01:39:55,679 Speaker 2: the show he want to go? And an agent will 1722 01:39:55,720 --> 01:39:57,920 Speaker 2: be involved in this, and there'll be five, six, seven 1723 01:39:58,040 --> 01:40:01,360 Speaker 2: or eight teams involved in You make it sound very 1724 01:40:01,439 --> 01:40:04,000 Speaker 2: much like Major League Baseball will be involved in this. 1725 01:40:04,479 --> 01:40:06,519 Speaker 2: The players Union is going to be involved in this, 1726 01:40:06,760 --> 01:40:09,120 Speaker 2: Like my man, you need to go here or you 1727 01:40:09,160 --> 01:40:12,160 Speaker 2: need to go there, And that always centers around either 1728 01:40:12,200 --> 01:40:15,040 Speaker 2: New York or Los Angeles. So is he going to 1729 01:40:15,120 --> 01:40:16,759 Speaker 2: be a Dodger? Is he going to be a Yankee? 1730 01:40:17,439 --> 01:40:19,720 Speaker 2: Are we going to be a met, a met or 1731 01:40:19,760 --> 01:40:22,080 Speaker 2: a Red Sox? I mean, I don't really hear. It's 1732 01:40:22,120 --> 01:40:25,160 Speaker 2: funny I don't hear that name. I don't hear the Cubs, 1733 01:40:25,520 --> 01:40:29,719 Speaker 2: I don't hear the Red Sox, I hear Dodgers, Yankees, Mets. 1734 01:40:29,800 --> 01:40:34,800 Speaker 2: And then the secondary teams are the Padres, Giants, and Mariners. 1735 01:40:35,320 --> 01:40:37,960 Speaker 2: Because there is this thought he wants to be on 1736 01:40:38,000 --> 01:40:41,200 Speaker 2: the Giants. There's a thought that he wants to be 1737 01:40:41,240 --> 01:40:43,240 Speaker 2: on the West Coast. I don't, I don't, And maybe 1738 01:40:43,280 --> 01:40:45,120 Speaker 2: New York is the only thing that would bring him away. 1739 01:40:45,320 --> 01:40:48,719 Speaker 2: I don't know that. Again, we don't know what actually 1740 01:40:49,240 --> 01:40:54,280 Speaker 2: makes this dude tick. But aren't we at a spot 1741 01:40:54,439 --> 01:40:59,520 Speaker 2: like can't you be a superstar anywhere? No, not anywhere, 1742 01:41:00,080 --> 01:41:04,160 Speaker 2: not anywhere. But I mean, look at all the Braves. 1743 01:41:04,520 --> 01:41:06,639 Speaker 2: Look at what they've achieved. Look at those players, look 1744 01:41:06,640 --> 01:41:10,439 Speaker 2: at a Kunya. Yeah, they're Atlanta, Georgia. 1745 01:41:10,600 --> 01:41:16,599 Speaker 3: They're just winning champion they're winning championships though, right, And 1746 01:41:16,640 --> 01:41:18,760 Speaker 3: you could take all those guys and you could talk 1747 01:41:18,800 --> 01:41:21,479 Speaker 3: about how great they are are, any of them the 1748 01:41:21,479 --> 01:41:27,760 Speaker 3: face of the Bay of baseball? No, oh, it's all right, 1749 01:41:27,840 --> 01:41:31,840 Speaker 3: let's keep it moving then, right, Well, but Barry was 1750 01:41:32,680 --> 01:41:36,439 Speaker 3: you know, Barry was the face of baseball. Yeah, and 1751 01:41:36,479 --> 01:41:38,960 Speaker 3: then you had right, but. 1752 01:41:38,920 --> 01:41:41,760 Speaker 2: We're having conversations a couple of hours ago about John 1753 01:41:41,800 --> 01:41:45,360 Speaker 2: Morant and the NBA is concerned because he's one of 1754 01:41:45,360 --> 01:41:46,839 Speaker 2: the future faces of the league. 1755 01:41:46,920 --> 01:41:52,200 Speaker 3: It won't be believe that well design it won't be there, 1756 01:41:52,240 --> 01:41:53,720 Speaker 3: not now, but it was. 1757 01:41:54,280 --> 01:41:56,679 Speaker 2: He's about to start a two hundred million dollar contract 1758 01:41:56,800 --> 01:41:57,440 Speaker 2: in Tennessee. 1759 01:41:57,560 --> 01:42:00,479 Speaker 3: Yeah, but he was for many years to Yeah, but 1760 01:42:00,479 --> 01:42:02,800 Speaker 3: it wasn't time for him to be the face yet, right, Like, 1761 01:42:03,320 --> 01:42:05,760 Speaker 3: he didn't have that energy coming out to be the face. 1762 01:42:05,920 --> 01:42:08,519 Speaker 3: We're we're getting to see who he is as a player. 1763 01:42:08,960 --> 01:42:12,960 Speaker 3: But in order, like Lebron Steph, there's the KD, there's 1764 01:42:13,000 --> 01:42:16,160 Speaker 3: still those guys who are getting ready to phase out 1765 01:42:16,200 --> 01:42:17,880 Speaker 3: of the league. You know what I mean, who's the 1766 01:42:17,920 --> 01:42:19,880 Speaker 3: face of the league right now? It would be it 1767 01:42:19,920 --> 01:42:24,280 Speaker 3: would be Lebron James still Lebron. Still, it's still st Lebron, 1768 01:42:24,479 --> 01:42:26,519 Speaker 3: still Lebron. And I'm not saying he's the best player 1769 01:42:26,560 --> 01:42:29,280 Speaker 3: in the league. What I'm saying he's the face of 1770 01:42:29,320 --> 01:42:29,840 Speaker 3: the NBA. 1771 01:42:30,080 --> 01:42:32,599 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, we could have a ratings argument about 1772 01:42:32,680 --> 01:42:35,320 Speaker 1: Lebron and Steph, but but they're one and one. They're 1773 01:42:35,400 --> 01:42:39,920 Speaker 1: right there right with you. Yes, right, Janni's plays in Wisconsin. 1774 01:42:40,760 --> 01:42:46,400 Speaker 3: Yeah, and that's why Lebron and he is close. But 1775 01:42:46,479 --> 01:42:50,920 Speaker 3: if Janni's played for San Francisco, if Janni's played for 1776 01:42:50,920 --> 01:42:53,280 Speaker 3: the Knicks, or if Janni's played for the Lakers. 1777 01:42:54,640 --> 01:42:58,000 Speaker 2: All right, and does this not work in the NFL. 1778 01:42:58,120 --> 01:43:00,360 Speaker 2: The face of that league plays in Kansas City. 1779 01:43:00,520 --> 01:43:05,519 Speaker 3: NFL is different. The NFL is different because ever that 1780 01:43:06,040 --> 01:43:09,440 Speaker 3: because they they could. They control the markets, all of them, 1781 01:43:10,880 --> 01:43:19,639 Speaker 3: they control the ratings, all of them. Nobody wins going 1782 01:43:19,720 --> 01:43:25,120 Speaker 3: up against the NFL. Sure, and they have a they 1783 01:43:25,120 --> 01:43:28,920 Speaker 3: have a brilliant way of marketing their product.

Yep, yep. And 1806 01:44:50,840 --> 01:44:53,080 Speaker 2: I got a happy nine year old over here at 1807 01:44:53,640 --> 01:44:57,960 Speaker 2: the place. Speaking of happy, he always brings a smile 1808 01:44:58,000 --> 01:44:58,599 Speaker 2: to our face. 1809 01:44:59,439 --> 01:45:02,080 Speaker 3: Right now, he's smiling right now. 1810 01:45:02,400 --> 01:45:05,360 Speaker 2: Get on into this Miami Heat party and help us out. 1811 01:45:05,600 --> 01:45:08,080 Speaker 6: One eleven, one oh eight the final in Game two 1812 01:45:08,080 --> 01:45:10,840 Speaker 6: of the NBA Finals at Denver, the one seed from 1813 01:45:10,880 --> 01:45:12,920 Speaker 6: the West, a team that had been nine and zero 1814 01:45:12,920 --> 01:45:15,680 Speaker 6: at home in this postseason, had been forty three and 1815 01:45:15,880 --> 01:45:19,640 Speaker 6: seven at home overall this long season. But despite a 1816 01:45:19,720 --> 01:45:22,719 Speaker 6: late comeback a late eleven two run, Jamal Murray missed 1817 01:45:22,760 --> 01:45:26,080 Speaker 6: the last shot and that was that. He took the 1818 01:45:26,120 --> 01:45:29,760 Speaker 6: shot with about two minutes left. Rebound Miami game over 1819 01:45:29,920 --> 01:45:32,280 Speaker 6: one eleven one oh eight for the heat Even though 1820 01:45:32,320 --> 01:45:35,080 Speaker 6: Tyler hero Heat guard, who averaged twenty points a game 1821 01:45:35,080 --> 01:45:38,040 Speaker 6: this year, is still out, might be returning in Game three, 1822 01:45:38,080 --> 01:45:42,719 Speaker 6: we'll see.

Rojang won today's event 1864 01:47:52,960 --> 01:47:56,439 Speaker 6: in her pro debut, a first on that tour since 1865 01:47:56,520 --> 01:47:59,439 Speaker 6: nineteen fifty one. What you were talking about with the 1866 01:47:59,479 --> 01:48:03,240 Speaker 6: market of bit and the language barrier with Otani, I 1867 01:48:03,240 --> 01:48:06,320 Speaker 6: immediately thought of what the LPGA has been going through 1868 01:48:06,360 --> 01:48:08,599 Speaker 6: the last ten to twenty years with so many great 1869 01:48:08,640 --> 01:48:11,559 Speaker 6: players from South Korea that don't speak English, and it's 1870 01:48:11,560 --> 01:48:15,960 Speaker 6: been a problem with marketability. Ironically, MLB had some marketing 1871 01:48:16,000 --> 01:48:19,200 Speaker 6: news literally just a few days ago, where the union 1872 01:48:19,280 --> 01:48:22,639 Speaker 6: or their business arm agreed to let Major League Baseball 1873 01:48:22,800 --> 01:48:25,840 Speaker 6: market players like if you have an existing contractor if 1874 01:48:25,840 --> 01:48:29,280 Speaker 6: you're an advertiser of MLB. This is not something that 1875 01:48:29,520 --> 01:48:33,120 Speaker 6: a player's agent lines up somebody who's a partner of MLB. 1876 01:48:33,320 --> 01:48:36,880 Speaker 6: They can now use MLB players in their ads and 1877 01:48:36,960 --> 01:48:40,519 Speaker 6: promotions groups. Before this, you would have had to have 1878 01:48:40,560 --> 01:48:44,160 Speaker 6: a separate sponsor agreement with the union and a separate 1879 01:48:44,200 --> 01:48:47,599 Speaker 6: sponsor agreement with MLB. That's been a bit streamlined as 1880 01:48:47,640 --> 01:48:50,080 Speaker 6: of literally just a couple days ago back to you. 1881 01:48:50,880 --> 01:48:53,639 Speaker 3: What thank you, Steve, and and the fact that they 1882 01:48:53,680 --> 01:48:55,760 Speaker 3: hadn't done that, because that's what the end I did 1883 01:48:55,880 --> 01:48:59,400 Speaker 3: NFL commercials and all of that, and every other league 1884 01:48:59,400 --> 01:49:02,840 Speaker 3: does that. That's why you see a Matthew Stafford on 1885 01:49:03,200 --> 01:49:07,479 Speaker 3: Papa John's commercial, arts, Little Caesar excuse me, little Seedsars 1886 01:49:07,520 --> 01:49:12,320 Speaker 3: commercial and the A T and T, and you see like, yeah, 1887 01:49:12,439 --> 01:49:16,679 Speaker 3: yes you use the stars. If you're a sponsor of 1888 01:49:17,520 --> 01:49:20,800 Speaker 3: the league, then you get to you you can ask 1889 01:49:20,960 --> 01:49:25,600 Speaker 3: them or tell them who you want in the campaign 1890 01:49:25,640 --> 01:49:28,800 Speaker 3: and all that you pay the player and you use them. 1891 01:49:28,880 --> 01:49:36,360 Speaker 3: That way, they can wear their actual uniform and not 1892 01:49:37,680 --> 01:49:41,200 Speaker 3: right like they could actually be themselves. 1893 01:49:41,160 --> 01:49:44,240 Speaker 1: Not look like Dak Prescott out there with the real housewives. 1894 01:49:44,360 --> 01:49:51,800 Speaker 1: Yeah around, just like I wear blue, just blue. Yeah, 1895 01:49:52,520 --> 01:49:57,120 Speaker 1: it's crazy. You know what's crazy? Man? We gotta talk 1896 01:49:57,120 --> 01:50:00,479 Speaker 1: about heat for a second. What what what what is this? 1897 01:50:01,040 --> 01:50:06,400 Speaker 1: Where are we going here? No? No, no, I don't 1898 01:50:06,400 --> 01:50:08,080 Speaker 1: think they're winning at all, but who cares? 1899 01:50:08,120 --> 01:50:10,680 Speaker 2: What I think is kind of where I'm at with 1900 01:50:10,760 --> 01:50:12,240 Speaker 2: regard to the Miami Heat. 1901 01:50:13,000 --> 01:50:13,719 Speaker 1: This is nuts. 1902 01:50:14,280 --> 01:50:19,680 Speaker 2: And what's what's interesting is what I find interesting is 1903 01:50:19,720 --> 01:50:23,520 Speaker 2: that for some reason there's some sort of little pathway 1904 01:50:24,120 --> 01:50:27,679 Speaker 2: that the Heat have. Maybe it's pat Riley, maybe it's 1905 01:50:27,680 --> 01:50:36,360 Speaker 2: Spolstra familiarity with June basketball. But somehow, someway this is 1906 01:50:36,439 --> 01:50:40,719 Speaker 2: happening and we're all sitting around going like, yep, that's 1907 01:50:40,760 --> 01:50:44,200 Speaker 2: the Heat. I'm like, wait, what do you understand? What 1908 01:50:44,240 --> 01:50:48,120 Speaker 2: would be happening in any other year if an eight seed, 1909 01:50:49,920 --> 01:50:55,240 Speaker 2: If an eight seed the NFL and Major League Baseball 1910 01:50:55,280 --> 01:50:57,160 Speaker 2: don't even have eight seeds. 1911 01:50:57,840 --> 01:51:00,040 Speaker 1: If an eight seed. 1912 01:51:01,360 --> 01:51:05,680 Speaker 2: Is messing around in a championship round, what would this 1913 01:51:05,800 --> 01:51:10,559 Speaker 2: be akin to If this were the NCAA tournament, give 1914 01:51:10,600 --> 01:51:12,719 Speaker 2: me the seed that's in the championship game. 1915 01:51:12,600 --> 01:51:13,960 Speaker 1: What are we looking at? Sixteen? 1916 01:51:14,360 --> 01:51:19,679 Speaker 3: Fourteen, thirteen fourteen. It would be a sixteen. I mean 1917 01:51:20,000 --> 01:51:23,400 Speaker 3: it would be a sixteen, just the lowest seed, and 1918 01:51:23,479 --> 01:51:28,400 Speaker 3: we would be five first sixteen seed. 1919 01:51:29,360 --> 01:51:33,799 Speaker 2: This is akin to an NFL team being owen seven 1920 01:51:34,439 --> 01:51:38,360 Speaker 2: and finding their way into a wildcard spot and then 1921 01:51:38,400 --> 01:51:41,120 Speaker 2: going to the super Bowl and leading at halftime. 1922 01:51:42,000 --> 01:51:46,519 Speaker 1: Yes, and for some reason, you tell me what it is. 1923 01:51:46,560 --> 01:51:50,599 Speaker 1: I throw out a couple possibilities. But we're sitting here like, yeah, yep, 1924 01:51:51,040 --> 01:51:55,479 Speaker 1: makes sense. I'm like, no, it doesn't, not even a 1925 01:51:55,520 --> 01:52:00,479 Speaker 1: little bit. It makes none sense. None. No, they don't 1926 01:52:00,520 --> 01:52:02,080 Speaker 1: have a player that's won a title. 1927 01:52:02,360 --> 01:52:05,760 Speaker 2: They went forty four and thirty eight down in the 1928 01:52:05,800 --> 01:52:11,000 Speaker 2: second half of the second play in tournament game, and 1929 01:52:11,040 --> 01:52:12,479 Speaker 2: then they're doing this and everyone's like. 1930 01:52:12,520 --> 01:52:17,640 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, wow, you just you really like, no, 1931 01:52:19,720 --> 01:52:24,200 Speaker 3: this is out of control. On the road, too tough 1932 01:52:24,240 --> 01:52:28,160 Speaker 3: place to play. No one first playoffs has beaten them there. 1933 01:52:28,680 --> 01:52:31,040 Speaker 1: First loss there, first lost there exactly. 1934 01:52:32,000 --> 01:52:35,479 Speaker 3: Hey, man, when you can when you man can poke 1935 01:52:35,600 --> 01:52:40,920 Speaker 3: holes in your armor and your opponent's armor and they 1936 01:52:40,920 --> 01:52:45,600 Speaker 3: can feel the breeze through that that that armor, you 1937 01:52:45,840 --> 01:52:52,479 Speaker 3: change their mindset because prior to losing at home, there 1938 01:52:52,600 --> 01:52:54,479 Speaker 3: is no like it's like, oh, they can't beat us 1939 01:52:54,520 --> 01:52:57,360 Speaker 3: at home, so no matter what happens. But once you 1940 01:52:57,640 --> 01:53:03,360 Speaker 3: make that a reality, now it's like, oh okay, now 1941 01:53:03,400 --> 01:53:06,200 Speaker 3: they have to refocus. And that's what you want. You 1942 01:53:06,280 --> 01:53:10,120 Speaker 3: want your opponent to make adjustments. You want them to 1943 01:53:10,120 --> 01:53:10,960 Speaker 3: make adjustments. 1944 01:53:12,040 --> 01:53:12,519 Speaker 1: I mean. 1945 01:53:14,000 --> 01:53:17,720 Speaker 2: This team six days ago also won Game seven on 1946 01:53:17,760 --> 01:53:19,280 Speaker 2: the road in Boston. 1947 01:53:18,880 --> 01:53:24,960 Speaker 3: Mass not only one.

Many around the 1976 01:55:14,320 --> 01:55:18,400 Speaker 2: country may not know what that is. These were Don Nelson's, 1977 01:55:18,560 --> 01:55:25,680 Speaker 2: Baron Davis's Steven Jackson now Harrington's Golden State Warriors team 1978 01:55:25,720 --> 01:55:29,879 Speaker 2: that upset the MVP Derk Novisky and the Dallas Mavericks 1979 01:55:29,920 --> 01:55:33,320 Speaker 2: in Round one of the playoffs.

They're going 1981 01:55:36,040 --> 01:55:40,720 Speaker 2: to make a documentary out of that eight seat. They're 1982 01:55:40,800 --> 01:55:45,400 Speaker 2: making a documentary. All they did was go to the 1983 01:55:45,400 --> 01:55:46,200 Speaker 2: second round. 1984 01:55:48,160 --> 01:55:51,040 Speaker 3: This person they did. 1985 01:55:51,320 --> 01:55:54,480 Speaker 1: I get it, my man. 1986 01:55:54,800 --> 01:55:58,440 Speaker 2: I mean, if we could spend one night with that 1987 01:55:58,520 --> 01:56:00,800 Speaker 2: Warrior team off the court, probably would have been the 1988 01:56:00,880 --> 01:56:01,960 Speaker 2: last night of our lives. 1989 01:56:02,040 --> 01:56:04,280 Speaker 1: I get it. I get it. 1990 01:56:04,960 --> 01:56:09,400 Speaker 2: But they're making a documentary about that eight seed because 1991 01:56:09,440 --> 01:56:13,240 Speaker 2: they went to the second round this one has home 1992 01:56:13,320 --> 01:56:20,400 Speaker 2: court advantage in the NBA Finals, and we're like, huh. 1993 01:56:19,240 --> 01:56:24,760 Speaker 1: Well, a heater, good organization.

Now this is being undersold. 1996 01:56:33,040 --> 01:56:37,360 Speaker 2: This is insanity. We're acting like, well, you know, the 1997 01:56:37,400 --> 01:56:40,880 Speaker 2: East was all jumbled, No, that was the West. We're 1998 01:56:40,920 --> 01:56:44,240 Speaker 2: acting like the Bucks, Celtics and Sixers. 1999 01:56:44,040 --> 01:56:48,760 Speaker 1: Were the clear class of the Eastern Conference. 2000 01:56:49,520 --> 01:56:52,720 Speaker 2: We're acting like that wasn't something that every one of 2001 01:56:52,800 --> 01:56:56,560 Speaker 2: us were simply discussing. Which one of those three was 2002 01:56:56,600 --> 01:56:59,560 Speaker 2: going to make the NBA finals. A fifty eight win 2003 01:56:59,680 --> 01:57:03,280 Speaker 2: team that barely be that. A fifty seven win team, 2004 01:57:03,680 --> 01:57:06,440 Speaker 2: two best records in the NBA for the one in 2005 01:57:06,480 --> 01:57:08,120 Speaker 2: the two seed in the Eastern Conference. 2006 01:57:09,920 --> 01:57:14,640 Speaker 1: Both of them defeated by this eight seed on their 2007 01:57:14,680 --> 01:57:19,920 Speaker 1: home floor, and we're just like, well, yeah, because pat 2008 01:57:20,000 --> 01:57:25,720 Speaker 1: Riley's good what they got a good organization. 2009 01:57:25,960 --> 01:57:27,440 Speaker 2: I don't know what to say, man, this is one 2010 01:57:27,440 --> 01:57:29,360 Speaker 2: of the biggest upsets in the history of sports. 2011 01:57:29,560 --> 01:57:31,600 Speaker 1: And I don't think you could talk me off that opinion. 2012 01:57:33,640 --> 01:57:41,520 Speaker 3: If it goes down, yes, And I guess because there's 2013 01:57:41,600 --> 01:57:48,320 Speaker 3: not a lot of flavor and fanfare for Denver. Mike 2014 01:57:48,480 --> 01:57:53,840 Speaker 3: Malone has been preaching that the whole time, like no 2015 01:57:53,880 --> 01:57:58,120 Speaker 3: one's talking about them and what they're doing. It's always 2016 01:57:58,600 --> 01:58:05,720 Speaker 3: how someone else lost. And so that's adding to the 2017 01:58:05,800 --> 01:58:11,280 Speaker 3: lack of and granted the game, they just won the game. 2018 01:58:12,400 --> 01:58:14,240 Speaker 1: Sure, but we're here. 2019 01:58:14,360 --> 01:58:16,600 Speaker 3: Headlines will be exactly right. 2020 01:58:16,640 --> 01:58:19,040 Speaker 1: But but we're here.

And they did what they did 2025 01:58:29,800 --> 01:58:32,520 Speaker 2: to Milwaukee, and they did what they did early to 2026 01:58:32,600 --> 01:58:34,040 Speaker 2: even get to this point. 2027 01:58:34,120 --> 01:58:35,600 Speaker 1: They've they've done all of these. 2028 01:58:35,400 --> 01:58:39,680 Speaker 2: Things and uh and now now they've they've taken a 2029 01:58:39,680 --> 01:58:42,360 Speaker 2: home court here and I yeah, no, I wouldn't pick 2030 01:58:42,440 --> 01:58:46,440 Speaker 2: them even now. But I just know what the build 2031 01:58:46,520 --> 01:58:49,760 Speaker 2: up of a major upset usually feels like. 2032 01:58:50,000 --> 01:58:51,120 Speaker 1: And this isn't it. 2033 01:58:51,200 --> 01:58:54,920 Speaker 3: Not it at all, It really isn't. 2034 01:58:55,200 --> 01:58:55,280 Speaker 1: No. 2035 01:58:55,480 --> 01:58:59,880 Speaker 2: We we hear more when when when TCU goes to 2036 01:58:59,920 --> 01:59:01,480 Speaker 2: the National Championship Game. 2037 01:59:04,520 --> 01:59:12,040 Speaker 3: Yeah yeah, our butler, you know, you know, in in 2038 01:59:12,040 --> 01:59:13,840 Speaker 3: in C double A hoops. 2039 01:59:15,640 --> 01:59:17,840 Speaker 1: And I think I think this is harder, man.
