But we got 16 00:01:10,720 --> 00:01:13,560 Speaker 1: an incredible show for you guys lined up today, so 17 00:01:13,640 --> 00:01:14,680 Speaker 1: let's get right into it. 18 00:01:14,760 --> 00:01:19,200 Speaker 2: First, up the Knicks, Paul, they're continuing the street. 19 00:01:19,200 --> 00:01:24,240 Speaker 1: They had a minus set back against Philadelphia, but they 20 00:01:24,280 --> 00:01:27,160 Speaker 1: beat up on the Bulls. Jalen Brunson had twenty seven 21 00:01:27,160 --> 00:01:30,880 Speaker 1: points in the first half, finished with forty seven his 22 00:01:31,040 --> 00:01:34,480 Speaker 1: home career high as a New York Nick. Right now, 23 00:01:34,520 --> 00:01:36,959 Speaker 1: the Knicks are the second seeded team in the East. 24 00:01:37,200 --> 00:01:40,600 Speaker 1: Right they're nipping at Detroit Tells for that number one 25 00:01:40,640 --> 00:01:44,200 Speaker 1: seed and they're looking every bit as you know, the 26 00:01:44,319 --> 00:01:48,680 Speaker 1: East favorite. And Danny, what are you liking out of 27 00:01:48,760 --> 00:01:52,559 Speaker 1: the Knicks so far? Not toccumbing to the Cup curse. 28 00:01:53,000 --> 00:01:54,920 Speaker 2: Yes, they had a minor setback, but they come back. 29 00:01:55,040 --> 00:01:56,600 Speaker 3: Yeah. 30 00:01:57,040 --> 00:01:57,200 Speaker 2: Nah. 31 00:01:57,280 --> 00:02:00,520 Speaker 3: I mean I'm watching all those teams that made it 32 00:02:00,520 --> 00:02:02,760 Speaker 3: to the Cup final because you know, both teams cup 33 00:02:02,800 --> 00:02:05,720 Speaker 3: finals usually kind of take a dive right after. San 34 00:02:05,760 --> 00:02:07,960 Speaker 3: Antonio is still playing well. Nicks are playing well, better 35 00:02:07,960 --> 00:02:11,040 Speaker 3: than I expected. Tough loss against Philly, but other than that, man, 36 00:02:11,040 --> 00:02:15,760 Speaker 3: they're still balling. So you know, I want to say 37 00:02:15,760 --> 00:02:19,320 Speaker 3: there's one thing in particular, but I'm just glad that 38 00:02:19,400 --> 00:02:22,640 Speaker 3: they still have the energy. They're not showing like signs 39 00:02:22,639 --> 00:02:25,880 Speaker 3: of fatigue. I know Brunton's getting a lot of usage 40 00:02:25,960 --> 00:02:29,919 Speaker 3: right now, but you know they're finding other way to 41 00:02:29,960 --> 00:02:31,400 Speaker 3: do it. You know, o g had a great Cup game. 42 00:02:31,440 --> 00:02:33,960 Speaker 3: He's still playing well. You know, Josh Hart is playing 43 00:02:34,000 --> 00:02:36,040 Speaker 3: good minutes. You know mckail Bridges. They finding it from 44 00:02:36,040 --> 00:02:38,320 Speaker 3: different pieces, different nights. And I know they're still waiting 45 00:02:38,360 --> 00:02:41,720 Speaker 3: for you know, Deuce to come back and Landry Shammit 46 00:02:41,840 --> 00:02:43,600 Speaker 3: to come back. Like they get those two, it makes 47 00:02:43,639 --> 00:02:45,200 Speaker 3: them a lot deeper. So them to be with wrap 48 00:02:45,280 --> 00:02:49,040 Speaker 3: up wins while not being fully healthy is huge. And 49 00:02:49,080 --> 00:02:52,720 Speaker 3: tonight hasn't been playing well. They played well tonight. They 50 00:02:52,720 --> 00:02:54,320 Speaker 3: put up one hundred and twenty five points. The clail 51 00:02:54,360 --> 00:02:58,079 Speaker 3: world looked like a star bro. So yeah, that was 52 00:02:58,240 --> 00:03:00,359 Speaker 3: That's a good win for the Knicks. Man and doing 53 00:03:00,400 --> 00:03:02,320 Speaker 3: what they're supposed to be doing, which again, more and 54 00:03:02,360 --> 00:03:04,960 Speaker 3: more favorites for me coming out of I'm gonna say 55 00:03:04,960 --> 00:03:07,239 Speaker 3: should be easy for them, but they're definitely an East 56 00:03:07,240 --> 00:03:07,800 Speaker 3: favorite for me. 57 00:03:08,600 --> 00:03:11,800 Speaker 2: Do the Knicks have a finals level quality to you 58 00:03:11,919 --> 00:03:12,320 Speaker 2: right now? 59 00:03:12,400 --> 00:03:16,320 Speaker 4: Paul, Well, listen, the Knicks are doing exactly what we 60 00:03:16,360 --> 00:03:18,440 Speaker 4: thought they were gonna do. Right Let's think about this. 61 00:03:18,560 --> 00:03:23,839 Speaker 4: When we come into the season, were saying what Cleveland Knicks. Yeah, right, 62 00:03:23,919 --> 00:03:26,720 Speaker 4: for sure, that's so they doing everything I thought. There's 63 00:03:26,760 --> 00:03:30,560 Speaker 4: no shocker here. Obviously, the way they're looking right now, 64 00:03:30,680 --> 00:03:33,680 Speaker 4: they definitely have a shot. They got experience, they're at 65 00:03:33,680 --> 00:03:35,560 Speaker 4: the point. Look at look, they're at the point right 66 00:03:35,600 --> 00:03:38,400 Speaker 4: now to where if they don't get to the finals, 67 00:03:38,400 --> 00:03:39,240 Speaker 4: it's a disappointment. 68 00:03:39,320 --> 00:03:41,960 Speaker 5: Oh yeah, this is that team right now, we can 69 00:03:41,960 --> 00:03:45,000 Speaker 5: say the disapployment. Yeah. So that's the level we're at 70 00:03:45,080 --> 00:03:46,520 Speaker 5: right now as we speak. 71 00:03:47,520 --> 00:03:51,080 Speaker 3: Unless something crazy happens. We're injuries, right but yes, I'm 72 00:03:51,120 --> 00:03:53,200 Speaker 3: with you, p. They they gotta get to the final, 73 00:03:53,360 --> 00:03:56,160 Speaker 3: and right now, the way they're playing, I don't see 74 00:03:56,160 --> 00:03:58,440 Speaker 3: this being an easy win for whoever comes out the West. 75 00:03:58,480 --> 00:04:01,920 Speaker 3: Obviously we expect okay, see, but I think they're pretty 76 00:04:01,920 --> 00:04:04,720 Speaker 3: good matching up. Not saying they'll win, but I think 77 00:04:04,720 --> 00:04:06,920 Speaker 3: it'll be a six to seven game series whoever they 78 00:04:06,960 --> 00:04:09,280 Speaker 3: match up with in the West. Like, you know, you 79 00:04:09,360 --> 00:04:11,000 Speaker 3: just got to get there. You never know what's gonna happen. 80 00:04:11,040 --> 00:04:14,400 Speaker 3: So this could be New York's year, man, you never know. 81 00:04:14,800 --> 00:04:19,600 Speaker 1: What I love so far, especially coming out of the 82 00:04:19,720 --> 00:04:25,360 Speaker 1: NBA Cup Final, is the collect minutes because Mike Brown 83 00:04:25,520 --> 00:04:29,920 Speaker 1: has empowered him and is building up his confidence so 84 00:04:29,960 --> 00:04:33,480 Speaker 1: that when they do need him in those bigger games, 85 00:04:33,920 --> 00:04:37,280 Speaker 1: it feels like he's gonna be ready. And you know, look, 86 00:04:37,400 --> 00:04:40,800 Speaker 1: Tims did a good job. They achieved more success on 87 00:04:40,839 --> 00:04:44,840 Speaker 1: the TIBs than they had in the previous literally twenty years, 88 00:04:45,520 --> 00:04:48,040 Speaker 1: so you know, going to the conference finals like they 89 00:04:48,080 --> 00:04:50,159 Speaker 1: hadn't done that for twenty five years. 90 00:04:50,200 --> 00:04:50,760 Speaker 2: Excuse me. 91 00:04:50,880 --> 00:04:54,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, And so to let go of a guy coming 92 00:04:54,040 --> 00:04:56,760 Speaker 1: off of that was you know a lot of people 93 00:04:56,880 --> 00:04:59,200 Speaker 1: raise their eyebrows. But you see with Mike Brown, he's 94 00:04:59,200 --> 00:05:03,280 Speaker 1: empowering different people, even at the end of the Cup 95 00:05:03,320 --> 00:05:05,400 Speaker 1: game when he's like, yo, Michael Bridges, you're not gonna play. 96 00:05:05,440 --> 00:05:08,280 Speaker 1: Remember tips is playing mckel Bridges forty six minutes a 97 00:05:08,360 --> 00:05:10,000 Speaker 1: game and he. 98 00:05:09,920 --> 00:05:12,520 Speaker 2: Literally had to go to TIBs like which players never do. 99 00:05:13,080 --> 00:05:17,919 Speaker 1: He's like, bro, I need some them right. And Mike Brown, 100 00:05:17,960 --> 00:05:20,040 Speaker 1: on the other hand, is like, yo, I'm closing games 101 00:05:20,040 --> 00:05:23,240 Speaker 1: with Kolek. I'm not paying the guy we just extended 102 00:05:23,279 --> 00:05:25,679 Speaker 1: for how much money, you know, one of our stars 103 00:05:25,720 --> 00:05:28,600 Speaker 1: on our team. That's what I'm really enjoying about the 104 00:05:28,640 --> 00:05:31,680 Speaker 1: Knicks is like watching Mike Brown put his imprint on 105 00:05:32,080 --> 00:05:33,400 Speaker 1: the team and house playing Danny. 106 00:05:34,320 --> 00:05:37,440 Speaker 3: I feel like he wasn't always like that, and I 107 00:05:37,480 --> 00:05:39,680 Speaker 3: think that takes time, just kind of feeling and reading 108 00:05:39,720 --> 00:05:42,240 Speaker 3: the game. Like a lot of times when I had 109 00:05:42,320 --> 00:05:44,440 Speaker 3: him long time ago, he had that card and I remember, 110 00:05:44,480 --> 00:05:46,880 Speaker 3: like Delonte or somebody saying something like, yo, don't go 111 00:05:46,920 --> 00:05:49,800 Speaker 3: buy the car man. Like Anthony Parker's having a good game. 112 00:05:49,839 --> 00:05:51,400 Speaker 3: You know he's feeling he's hot right now, let him 113 00:05:51,440 --> 00:05:53,880 Speaker 3: let him keep rocking. And if Tyler Kulak's having a 114 00:05:53,920 --> 00:05:56,000 Speaker 3: good game, like he's letting it rock. Mind you again, 115 00:05:56,400 --> 00:05:58,599 Speaker 3: Duce McBride is out right now, so this is a 116 00:05:58,720 --> 00:06:02,160 Speaker 3: very different situation. But he is still allowing those guys 117 00:06:02,520 --> 00:06:06,080 Speaker 3: to get opportunity and build trust and character throughout the 118 00:06:06,080 --> 00:06:08,479 Speaker 3: season because at some point you might you will need them. 119 00:06:08,680 --> 00:06:09,960 Speaker 3: It may not be in the playoffs, but it will 120 00:06:09,960 --> 00:06:12,960 Speaker 3: be at some point in season. But yeah, for him now, 121 00:06:13,120 --> 00:06:15,760 Speaker 3: I think, you know, Mike Brown's kind of learned from 122 00:06:15,800 --> 00:06:18,080 Speaker 3: his mistakes and other coaching mistakes. You know, he can't 123 00:06:18,080 --> 00:06:19,640 Speaker 3: do what TIBs did, and he's coming in now he's 124 00:06:19,640 --> 00:06:21,080 Speaker 3: doing the same thing TIBs did. They're gonna look at 125 00:06:21,120 --> 00:06:22,919 Speaker 3: him like, yo, we just fired a guy for this. 126 00:06:23,000 --> 00:06:25,120 Speaker 3: So yeah, he's got to allow these guys to whop. 127 00:06:25,240 --> 00:06:28,760 Speaker 3: He's got to empower these guys and also understand the 128 00:06:28,800 --> 00:06:30,520 Speaker 3: feel of the game and see who's got it going. 129 00:06:30,760 --> 00:06:33,839 Speaker 3: And it doesn't necessarily mean or have to be your superstars. 130 00:06:33,839 --> 00:06:35,320 Speaker 3: It could be any guy at the bench. Again, if 131 00:06:35,320 --> 00:06:37,640 Speaker 3: the Deuce was hot or Lindry chamis hot, I've seen 132 00:06:37,680 --> 00:06:39,520 Speaker 3: them close games for them. He's not like saying, oh, 133 00:06:39,520 --> 00:06:41,680 Speaker 3: we got to for sure have Josh Hart or og 134 00:06:41,960 --> 00:06:45,040 Speaker 3: or mckel bridges, whoever's got it rolling is gonna play. 135 00:06:45,480 --> 00:06:47,680 Speaker 3: And again they're showing that their their depth is good 136 00:06:47,800 --> 00:06:49,520 Speaker 3: enough to play with the best of them. 137 00:06:49,800 --> 00:06:51,960 Speaker 1: I want to stay on something you just mentioned, Paul, 138 00:06:51,960 --> 00:06:53,920 Speaker 1: because what he said is interest. 139 00:06:53,960 --> 00:06:55,839 Speaker 2: Because he had Mike Brown very early. 140 00:06:55,560 --> 00:07:00,720 Speaker 1: On in his career, which would have been twenty ten, Danny. 141 00:07:01,640 --> 00:07:04,560 Speaker 2: Nine, so that's seventeen. 142 00:07:04,640 --> 00:07:06,479 Speaker 1: This guy's been around for a long time, and I 143 00:07:06,480 --> 00:07:10,120 Speaker 1: don't think fans appreciate how much coaches improved. 144 00:07:10,280 --> 00:07:11,120 Speaker 2: We talk about. 145 00:07:10,920 --> 00:07:14,640 Speaker 1: Players making elite players getting better, players going from all 146 00:07:14,720 --> 00:07:17,120 Speaker 1: right Steady contributed to oh shoot, he might be an 147 00:07:17,160 --> 00:07:19,600 Speaker 1: All Star this year, but we don't really talk about 148 00:07:19,640 --> 00:07:23,720 Speaker 1: coaches like getting better and evolving in themselves. 149 00:07:23,920 --> 00:07:26,280 Speaker 4: Or He's been around some great cultures. He's been a 150 00:07:26,360 --> 00:07:30,720 Speaker 4: part of championship staffs on multiple teams. Yes, you know, 151 00:07:30,840 --> 00:07:33,120 Speaker 4: so he understands what that it's about, every day to 152 00:07:33,200 --> 00:07:35,440 Speaker 4: day to day stuff. So he can come into a 153 00:07:35,480 --> 00:07:39,280 Speaker 4: situation now as an experienced coach and give that to them, 154 00:07:39,560 --> 00:07:42,160 Speaker 4: you know what I'm saying. So it's not only the 155 00:07:43,320 --> 00:07:46,320 Speaker 4: way they plan, but it's like how he's distributed in 156 00:07:46,320 --> 00:07:48,680 Speaker 4: the minutes. Like you said, the system is a lot 157 00:07:48,760 --> 00:07:52,200 Speaker 4: different also, which makes it a lot better than watching 158 00:07:52,320 --> 00:07:53,080 Speaker 4: Jalen Bruns. 159 00:07:52,880 --> 00:07:55,720 Speaker 5: A dribble dribble, dribble and all of these things. 160 00:07:55,760 --> 00:07:59,320 Speaker 4: But like I said, the type of culture Mike Brown 161 00:07:59,400 --> 00:08:03,160 Speaker 4: has been a round is flowing in that locker room. 162 00:08:03,720 --> 00:08:05,440 Speaker 4: But like I said, if they don't make it to 163 00:08:05,480 --> 00:08:10,400 Speaker 4: the finals, this is a disappointing season for them. And 164 00:08:10,440 --> 00:08:13,200 Speaker 4: it's okay because you want those expectations. 165 00:08:13,280 --> 00:08:14,840 Speaker 5: I've been on teams. If we don't make it to 166 00:08:14,920 --> 00:08:19,520 Speaker 5: the finals, this is a death beat season. It's a failure. 167 00:08:20,040 --> 00:08:24,040 Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm looking at their upcoming schedule. Man, they have 168 00:08:24,080 --> 00:08:26,360 Speaker 3: a pretty i want to say light but they have 169 00:08:26,680 --> 00:08:29,240 Speaker 3: They could They could win up until the new year. 170 00:08:29,280 --> 00:08:31,440 Speaker 3: They play Spurs again right before the new year. That's 171 00:08:31,440 --> 00:08:34,679 Speaker 3: gonna be a hell of a rematch. But if they 172 00:08:34,679 --> 00:08:36,960 Speaker 3: can continue to show that they're not fatigued and said 173 00:08:37,000 --> 00:08:38,480 Speaker 3: dying down and they can still win the games. Is 174 00:08:38,559 --> 00:08:41,559 Speaker 3: supposed to win against Cleveland against Atlanta, Minnesota is the 175 00:08:41,559 --> 00:08:44,400 Speaker 3: tough one. Minnesota's playing well right now, but they got 176 00:08:44,400 --> 00:08:47,000 Speaker 3: New Orleans and then the Spurs if they close out 177 00:08:47,000 --> 00:08:52,360 Speaker 3: the year looking you know, pretty healthy and handedly again, 178 00:08:53,160 --> 00:08:54,760 Speaker 3: they're looking a lot better than the teams we've seen 179 00:08:54,760 --> 00:08:58,880 Speaker 3: in the past win the Cup game. So, like Paul 180 00:08:58,960 --> 00:09:02,440 Speaker 3: was saying, man, they their expectation is very high. 181 00:09:02,800 --> 00:09:03,079 Speaker 5: Yeah. 182 00:09:03,240 --> 00:09:06,800 Speaker 1: I Again, for me, I think the Knicks right now, 183 00:09:06,840 --> 00:09:09,720 Speaker 1: to me look like the best team in the Eastern Conference. 184 00:09:09,800 --> 00:09:12,960 Speaker 1: I think they're the most complete top to bottom in 185 00:09:13,080 --> 00:09:14,800 Speaker 1: terms of what they could throw at you in the 186 00:09:14,800 --> 00:09:18,920 Speaker 1: front court with carl And and Mitch and the amount 187 00:09:19,000 --> 00:09:21,920 Speaker 1: of wing defenders they have when you talk about heart 188 00:09:22,040 --> 00:09:25,480 Speaker 1: and og and bridges, and they have a closer. 189 00:09:25,200 --> 00:09:27,800 Speaker 2: And now they're developing a bench. I just think they're 190 00:09:27,840 --> 00:09:28,680 Speaker 2: so well founded. 191 00:09:29,640 --> 00:09:31,760 Speaker 1: To me, that's that's the most important thing in the 192 00:09:31,800 --> 00:09:35,000 Speaker 1: playoffs is like be multiple, be able to play big play, 193 00:09:35,040 --> 00:09:38,160 Speaker 1: small play, fast play, slow, make threes, get to the paint, 194 00:09:38,360 --> 00:09:39,480 Speaker 1: get to the Foutlind like you. 195 00:09:39,520 --> 00:09:42,320 Speaker 4: Got a closer, Yes, being able to do all of 196 00:09:42,320 --> 00:09:43,000 Speaker 4: that stuff. 197 00:09:43,320 --> 00:09:44,800 Speaker 2: To me, they look like the strongest team. 198 00:09:44,880 --> 00:09:47,840 Speaker 1: And we got to move on from some positivity to 199 00:09:47,960 --> 00:09:52,839 Speaker 1: some negativity. Danny B we're talking about beef. 200 00:09:53,000 --> 00:09:54,640 Speaker 2: We're talking about smoke man. 201 00:09:56,360 --> 00:10:03,400 Speaker 1: People are resurfacing these old Paul Jesus Christ people are 202 00:10:03,440 --> 00:10:05,840 Speaker 1: resurfacing these old. 203 00:10:07,840 --> 00:10:15,240 Speaker 2: This man looking for me mercy on my vegetarian out here. 204 00:10:18,520 --> 00:10:27,040 Speaker 1: Anyway, Dylan Brooks and Lebron and the Phoenix Suns just 205 00:10:27,160 --> 00:10:31,920 Speaker 1: generally have been having problems, but Dylan and Lebron specifically, 206 00:10:32,080 --> 00:10:35,640 Speaker 1: and you know, people digging up old tweets of Dylan 207 00:10:35,640 --> 00:10:40,400 Speaker 1: Brooks where he's just obviously like a big Lebron fan, uh, 208 00:10:40,400 --> 00:10:42,640 Speaker 1: and people like, oh, look at this guy. He used 209 00:10:42,640 --> 00:10:45,920 Speaker 1: to slurp Lebron, used to glaze Lebron, blah blah blah, 210 00:10:46,080 --> 00:10:49,080 Speaker 1: and now he's now he's trolling them and faking like 211 00:10:49,120 --> 00:10:51,480 Speaker 1: he want to fight and stuff like that. Where are 212 00:10:51,480 --> 00:10:53,679 Speaker 1: you at with this kind of thing? Is it good entertainment? 213 00:10:54,520 --> 00:10:56,880 Speaker 1: I don't think you were a big like smack talker, 214 00:10:56,920 --> 00:10:58,840 Speaker 1: So it's not like you were talking crap to like 215 00:10:58,920 --> 00:11:01,439 Speaker 1: the guys that you looked up to before you came 216 00:11:01,480 --> 00:11:02,000 Speaker 1: into the league. 217 00:11:02,000 --> 00:11:03,640 Speaker 2: What do you even think about that dynamic? 218 00:11:05,040 --> 00:11:09,560 Speaker 3: Nah? I wasn't. I never wasn't a shit talker in general. 219 00:11:09,640 --> 00:11:11,000 Speaker 3: I mean in New York, grew up with it, so 220 00:11:11,120 --> 00:11:13,240 Speaker 3: I knew how to handle it. I knew how to 221 00:11:13,360 --> 00:11:15,320 Speaker 3: try to back it up with my play and talk 222 00:11:15,400 --> 00:11:19,839 Speaker 3: back if I needed to. But coming from certain organizations, 223 00:11:19,960 --> 00:11:24,880 Speaker 3: certain universities, I had to focus on focus on playing 224 00:11:24,880 --> 00:11:26,319 Speaker 3: the game and doing what's best for me and the 225 00:11:26,360 --> 00:11:28,280 Speaker 3: team was trying to do that. It gets you in 226 00:11:28,320 --> 00:11:31,520 Speaker 3: a whole nother bond where coaches ain't really fucking with it, 227 00:11:31,559 --> 00:11:34,000 Speaker 3: you know what I'm saying, And it's just harder to 228 00:11:34,000 --> 00:11:36,320 Speaker 3: focus against. Katie said. Some guys can play and talk, 229 00:11:36,360 --> 00:11:38,720 Speaker 3: some guys can't. I'm not saying that I couldn't. I 230 00:11:38,800 --> 00:11:41,600 Speaker 3: just it wasn't in my favor at certain places that 231 00:11:41,640 --> 00:11:44,200 Speaker 3: I played for, you know what I'm saying. So, but 232 00:11:44,240 --> 00:11:46,920 Speaker 3: I'm all for it. Bro Like, it don't matter. Like 233 00:11:47,800 --> 00:11:49,880 Speaker 3: they did the same thing with Draymond right like back 234 00:11:49,920 --> 00:11:51,480 Speaker 3: in he I guess he looked up to the Warriors. 235 00:11:51,880 --> 00:11:53,719 Speaker 3: You're supposed to if you're a young college player when 236 00:11:53,720 --> 00:11:55,199 Speaker 3: you make it there. If I'm playing against. 237 00:11:54,920 --> 00:11:59,720 Speaker 2: You, we ain't at the top of the sport. 238 00:11:59,800 --> 00:12:02,080 Speaker 3: Yeah, come on, yeah, it don't matter. I could be 239 00:12:02,200 --> 00:12:04,200 Speaker 3: I could be inspired by you, and then the same 240 00:12:04,200 --> 00:12:05,959 Speaker 3: breath if I'm and you're on my playing field, I'm 241 00:12:06,000 --> 00:12:08,120 Speaker 3: running you over again. I used to have trainers out 242 00:12:08,160 --> 00:12:11,200 Speaker 3: here and he'd be crazy crazy, but he was one 243 00:12:11,200 --> 00:12:12,959 Speaker 3: of the best. Shout out to Jerry Ice, like I 244 00:12:13,000 --> 00:12:14,920 Speaker 3: love my mother, loved my grandmother death. She's on the court, 245 00:12:15,080 --> 00:12:16,720 Speaker 3: I'm running the fuck over. You know what I'm saying. 246 00:12:17,360 --> 00:12:18,920 Speaker 3: That's just how it is. You know what I'm saying, 247 00:12:18,960 --> 00:12:22,199 Speaker 3: that's the game. That's how much how much I hate losing. No, 248 00:12:22,360 --> 00:12:24,160 Speaker 3: he said, his mom, grandma, don't matter who was. 249 00:12:24,480 --> 00:12:26,160 Speaker 1: It didn't matter who was in front of him on 250 00:12:26,160 --> 00:12:28,080 Speaker 1: the court, could have been his grandmother's. 251 00:12:30,040 --> 00:12:36,080 Speaker 3: Bro. He said that some guys are crazy, man. Some 252 00:12:36,120 --> 00:12:38,400 Speaker 3: guys said that that's the competitor nature. They hate to 253 00:12:38,440 --> 00:12:40,440 Speaker 3: lose that badly. They don't care who's on the floor. 254 00:12:40,720 --> 00:12:42,320 Speaker 3: Once we step on the floor between those lines and 255 00:12:42,320 --> 00:12:45,160 Speaker 3: we go into competition, I'm running through or running over you. 256 00:12:45,240 --> 00:12:46,760 Speaker 3: I'm trying to beat you as bad as I can. 257 00:12:47,040 --> 00:12:48,840 Speaker 3: And that's one of those guys that Dylan Brooks is. 258 00:12:49,400 --> 00:12:50,880 Speaker 3: I wouldn't do it, but you know, I said, I 259 00:12:50,920 --> 00:12:53,160 Speaker 3: know people that are like that where they run that. 260 00:12:53,200 --> 00:12:54,560 Speaker 3: I said, I run my mother over. I don't care, 261 00:12:55,600 --> 00:12:58,160 Speaker 3: but yeah, I'm all for it. Bro Again, he was 262 00:12:58,240 --> 00:13:02,360 Speaker 3: a young college player that was he said, inspired by 263 00:13:02,400 --> 00:13:04,200 Speaker 3: what Lebron has done with Golden State has done, but 264 00:13:04,240 --> 00:13:06,600 Speaker 3: once you play against them, I don't want to lose 265 00:13:06,640 --> 00:13:08,160 Speaker 3: to them. I don't give a fuck how good they 266 00:13:08,160 --> 00:13:09,599 Speaker 3: were are. I want to beat them. I want to 267 00:13:09,640 --> 00:13:11,080 Speaker 3: be just like them, if not better. The only way 268 00:13:11,080 --> 00:13:13,680 Speaker 3: to do that is the doctor every chance I get. 269 00:13:13,760 --> 00:13:15,679 Speaker 3: So I get where he's coming from, and I'm all 270 00:13:15,720 --> 00:13:17,760 Speaker 3: for all the smoke that he got for those guys. 271 00:13:18,080 --> 00:13:20,559 Speaker 1: So, Paul, I got to ask you though, because it 272 00:13:20,960 --> 00:13:23,280 Speaker 1: like in the past couple of weeks, he's had some 273 00:13:23,400 --> 00:13:28,880 Speaker 1: bone headed plays and inopportunity moments, like clutch moments. He's 274 00:13:28,920 --> 00:13:32,120 Speaker 1: done some like some pretty dumb stuff like he got 275 00:13:32,120 --> 00:13:35,160 Speaker 1: bailed out against Golden State. Like a bunch of stuff 276 00:13:35,160 --> 00:13:35,760 Speaker 1: has happened. 277 00:13:36,360 --> 00:13:40,000 Speaker 3: Do you think it did Stephan the chest, Yeah, smacking 278 00:13:40,080 --> 00:13:43,520 Speaker 3: the step it was, and then the technical foul against 279 00:13:43,520 --> 00:13:46,280 Speaker 3: the Lakers getting kicked out. Yeah, those are pretty bad 280 00:13:46,320 --> 00:13:48,200 Speaker 3: scenario plays to put yourself in position. 281 00:13:48,200 --> 00:13:49,840 Speaker 2: It's the opposite of heavy play. 282 00:13:50,800 --> 00:13:54,280 Speaker 1: And yeah, he's also having the best season of his career. 283 00:13:55,040 --> 00:13:58,440 Speaker 2: He's so clearly improved upon his game. 284 00:13:58,480 --> 00:14:02,000 Speaker 1: He's worked his asshole to make himself into a true 285 00:14:02,080 --> 00:14:04,360 Speaker 1: quality player, and he's a big part of why Phoenix 286 00:14:04,440 --> 00:14:07,840 Speaker 1: is overperforming everything we thought they had going on before 287 00:14:07,880 --> 00:14:10,560 Speaker 1: the season started. Do you think this is overshadowing the 288 00:14:10,600 --> 00:14:12,640 Speaker 1: work that he's actually putting on the court. 289 00:14:15,040 --> 00:14:19,240 Speaker 4: I think for Dylan Brooks, you already know what his identity. 290 00:14:19,480 --> 00:14:23,640 Speaker 4: This wasn't nothing different than what he had in Memphis. 291 00:14:23,680 --> 00:14:26,400 Speaker 4: But like you said, he's having a great year. But 292 00:14:26,880 --> 00:14:28,880 Speaker 4: people forget this was an eighteen I believe he was 293 00:14:28,920 --> 00:14:31,680 Speaker 4: an eighteen point scorer at one point in Memphis, right, Yeah, 294 00:14:31,800 --> 00:14:34,560 Speaker 4: I thought, like coming out of coming out of college 295 00:14:34,760 --> 00:14:37,480 Speaker 4: where with the Oregon Yeah, I remember they actually I 296 00:14:37,480 --> 00:14:40,360 Speaker 4: remember that they picked Kansas out out of the tournament. 297 00:14:40,680 --> 00:14:44,000 Speaker 4: He was there, Like Dylan Brooks really was a scorer, 298 00:14:44,040 --> 00:14:46,440 Speaker 4: but became a defender as his role. He he came 299 00:14:46,480 --> 00:14:48,120 Speaker 4: into the league and saying, how am I gonna stick? 300 00:14:48,800 --> 00:14:51,240 Speaker 4: And now look at look at him. Every team in 301 00:14:51,280 --> 00:14:54,400 Speaker 4: the league with one Brooks and I know it's getting away, 302 00:14:54,440 --> 00:14:57,400 Speaker 4: but look at Raymond. He made a successful career out 303 00:14:57,440 --> 00:14:59,480 Speaker 4: of these top this type of stuff. 304 00:14:59,360 --> 00:15:01,440 Speaker 2: And that's a And that's what I wonder, Danny. 305 00:15:01,560 --> 00:15:06,520 Speaker 1: I wonder if you can separate the quality of his 306 00:15:06,680 --> 00:15:10,400 Speaker 1: play from him constantly being on the edge. I think 307 00:15:10,400 --> 00:15:13,320 Speaker 1: for him it's probably like this attitude that I take 308 00:15:13,360 --> 00:15:16,160 Speaker 1: to the game is what's gotten me one hundred million 309 00:15:16,160 --> 00:15:19,960 Speaker 1: dollar contract. It's what's gotten me to this point where 310 00:15:20,000 --> 00:15:22,760 Speaker 1: I've improved myself. I wonder if you could separate those 311 00:15:22,760 --> 00:15:25,080 Speaker 1: two things. 312 00:15:25,360 --> 00:15:25,800 Speaker 5: You can. 313 00:15:25,880 --> 00:15:28,480 Speaker 3: But he is teetering a fine lineman and Jernymond got 314 00:15:28,520 --> 00:15:31,440 Speaker 3: away with it because he's had a great group of 315 00:15:31,480 --> 00:15:34,840 Speaker 3: people around him. That's always one you know, once you're 316 00:15:34,840 --> 00:15:38,040 Speaker 3: in a group that's losing or something like that. Again, 317 00:15:38,240 --> 00:15:41,720 Speaker 3: right now, it's overshadowing. I don't he needs to be careful. 318 00:15:41,760 --> 00:15:43,760 Speaker 3: I don't want him because you let your play talk. 319 00:15:43,800 --> 00:15:45,920 Speaker 3: You know what I'm saying, Maybe the players making them 320 00:15:45,920 --> 00:15:48,040 Speaker 3: more comfortable to do this, But like, bro, you don't 321 00:15:48,040 --> 00:15:50,080 Speaker 3: want to cost your team games. You don't want the 322 00:15:50,760 --> 00:15:52,440 Speaker 3: risk reward, you know what I'm saying, All the bads 323 00:15:52,440 --> 00:15:55,880 Speaker 3: outweigh the good. You want to continue to play well, 324 00:15:55,920 --> 00:15:58,880 Speaker 3: play good and show that you're valuable. Yeah, you can 325 00:15:58,920 --> 00:16:01,160 Speaker 3: do your shit here and there and crunch time, you 326 00:16:01,240 --> 00:16:03,840 Speaker 3: gotta tighten up. Because there was a point where you know, 327 00:16:03,920 --> 00:16:05,600 Speaker 3: people were looking at Draymond like why is he still there? 328 00:16:05,600 --> 00:16:07,080 Speaker 3: Why y'all keeping them, Why y'all stend him in the 329 00:16:07,120 --> 00:16:09,640 Speaker 3: ingalle state, he's the reason why things have broken up 330 00:16:09,640 --> 00:16:11,960 Speaker 3: with Why y'all in position y'all in y'all almost lost 331 00:16:12,000 --> 00:16:14,640 Speaker 3: or y'all lost the people. 332 00:16:15,240 --> 00:16:17,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, for. 333 00:16:16,960 --> 00:16:19,200 Speaker 3: A lot of when they lost the finals in seventy 334 00:16:19,240 --> 00:16:22,600 Speaker 3: three or nine, but uh, when he got ejected.

But 678 00:33:32,440 --> 00:33:33,840 Speaker 3: I don't think he gets to eight points. I'm gonna 679 00:33:33,880 --> 00:33:34,960 Speaker 3: go less. I'm gonna go less. 680 00:33:35,840 --> 00:33:37,600 Speaker 5: Well, what you got, man, I gotta feel like he's 681 00:33:37,600 --> 00:33:41,080 Speaker 5: gonna be a right on Mark More. 682 00:33:41,200 --> 00:33:45,680 Speaker 2: I'm gonna go more, man, I'm going to go more. 683 00:33:45,760 --> 00:33:49,640 Speaker 1: And it's simply because Draymond's being kicked out like twice 684 00:33:49,640 --> 00:33:52,120 Speaker 1: in the last three games. He's gonna finish this game. 685 00:33:52,680 --> 00:33:55,640 Speaker 1: He's gonna get to nine points, y'all, he's gonna. 686 00:33:55,680 --> 00:33:57,080 Speaker 2: I believe in Draymond's he's. 687 00:33:57,560 --> 00:33:59,560 Speaker 4: For sure, but it's just that he's gonna get a 688 00:33:59,560 --> 00:34:02,520 Speaker 4: free throw where it's like towards the end where if he's. 689 00:34:02,040 --> 00:34:04,160 Speaker 3: Gonna get right, it's gonna be something. 690 00:34:03,840 --> 00:34:05,600 Speaker 5: Crazy where he's gonna have an opportunity. 691 00:34:06,600 --> 00:34:10,120 Speaker 1: Next up, Desmond Baine more or less than twenty two 692 00:34:10,120 --> 00:34:11,719 Speaker 1: point five points, Danny. 693 00:34:12,800 --> 00:34:16,240 Speaker 3: More, He's gonna get the shots, he can get the attempts, 694 00:34:16,320 --> 00:34:17,919 Speaker 3: he's gonna put them up. So I'm gonna go more. 695 00:34:18,840 --> 00:34:20,719 Speaker 4: Well, I went less with Ben Carrol, so I have 696 00:34:20,800 --> 00:34:22,040 Speaker 4: to go more where he has to score. 697 00:34:22,080 --> 00:34:23,919 Speaker 5: If Man Carroll doesn't, I'm gonna go more. 698 00:34:24,160 --> 00:34:28,520 Speaker 1: Same logic for me. More for Desmond Baine. Next up, 699 00:34:29,239 --> 00:34:33,160 Speaker 1: we got Steph Curry. What I can't see it right there? 700 00:34:33,200 --> 00:34:33,560 Speaker 5: What is it? 701 00:34:33,640 --> 00:34:36,279 Speaker 1: Chris more or less than twenty eight and a half 702 00:34:36,320 --> 00:34:37,760 Speaker 1: points for Steph Curry tonight? 703 00:34:37,880 --> 00:34:39,400 Speaker 2: I mean against the Magic. 704 00:34:40,600 --> 00:34:42,600 Speaker 3: He's on a heater, bro. He's the only person I 705 00:34:42,680 --> 00:34:44,719 Speaker 3: have scoring for them like that. He's gonna go more. 706 00:34:44,840 --> 00:34:46,239 Speaker 3: He's gonna have to score more for them to be 707 00:34:46,280 --> 00:34:47,560 Speaker 3: in the game. He has to score more than twenty 708 00:34:47,600 --> 00:34:49,919 Speaker 3: eight and a half. Because Jimmy is very up and down. 709 00:34:49,960 --> 00:34:51,719 Speaker 4: I think it's gonna be a Jimmy Butler game. I'm 710 00:34:51,719 --> 00:34:54,120 Speaker 4: gonna go less. I think he'll be right around twenty seven. 711 00:34:54,680 --> 00:34:57,960 Speaker 2: Give me more, Steph Curry, Always trusting Steph. 712 00:34:58,120 --> 00:35:02,120 Speaker 1: All right, y'all, let's get into our Power Moves segment 713 00:35:02,239 --> 00:35:07,000 Speaker 1: presented by Morgan and Morgan. So my god, Tim Bontemps 714 00:35:07,840 --> 00:35:11,360 Speaker 1: does this thing over for ESPN called the MVP straw 715 00:35:11,440 --> 00:35:18,480 Speaker 1: Pole where he pulls one hundred MVP voters around the country, 716 00:35:18,480 --> 00:35:22,359 Speaker 1: guys who actually own MVP ballots, and he asked them, 717 00:35:22,400 --> 00:35:27,200 Speaker 1: if the season ended today, who would who would what 718 00:35:27,239 --> 00:35:31,799 Speaker 1: would their MVP ballot look like? And it's it's been 719 00:35:31,960 --> 00:35:36,240 Speaker 1: like insanely accurate over the last like four or five years. 720 00:35:36,280 --> 00:35:38,799 Speaker 2: Like it's a really cool it's really cool to track. 721 00:35:38,840 --> 00:35:42,640 Speaker 1: It's it's progression throughout the season because you know, we 722 00:35:42,719 --> 00:35:46,160 Speaker 1: remember the Jokic and emb battles and then Shane Jokic 723 00:35:46,320 --> 00:35:49,240 Speaker 1: last year, and you know we've seen a bunch of those. 724 00:35:50,560 --> 00:35:54,399 Speaker 1: And the top five number one vote getter with Shae 725 00:35:54,400 --> 00:35:55,440 Speaker 1: gilgis Alexander. 726 00:35:56,200 --> 00:35:57,319 Speaker 2: Right behind him was jo. 727 00:35:57,320 --> 00:36:01,760 Speaker 1: Kic, number three was Luca, number four was Cade cunning 728 00:36:01,840 --> 00:36:06,320 Speaker 1: him and number five was New York City's on Jalen Brunson. 729 00:36:07,880 --> 00:36:10,239 Speaker 2: What do you think about that ballot? 730 00:36:10,600 --> 00:36:14,040 Speaker 1: And would geors look the same if the season ended today, Danny. 731 00:36:15,360 --> 00:36:20,680 Speaker 3: I'd say yes. I like Jalen Brunston at five. We 732 00:36:20,719 --> 00:36:23,759 Speaker 3: talked about this last time. I like Jylen Brown. I 733 00:36:23,760 --> 00:36:25,799 Speaker 3: think they're right behind him. Are they still three seed 734 00:36:25,840 --> 00:36:29,400 Speaker 3: in the East? If that's the case, I said, I 735 00:36:29,440 --> 00:36:32,600 Speaker 3: think his expectation is a lot lower, but I'm okay 736 00:36:32,600 --> 00:36:35,320 Speaker 3: with that five. Jayleen Brunson. The way he playing tonight 737 00:36:35,320 --> 00:36:38,239 Speaker 3: and after this Cup game he's been bawling, so he 738 00:36:38,360 --> 00:36:41,439 Speaker 3: deservingly deserves an MVP vote for showing the top five. 739 00:36:41,520 --> 00:36:44,160 Speaker 3: Jayalen Brunston probably right outside of him, but that's a 740 00:36:44,160 --> 00:36:44,719 Speaker 3: good top five. 741 00:36:44,840 --> 00:36:45,240 Speaker 5: SGA. 742 00:36:45,560 --> 00:36:50,000 Speaker 3: Okay, see, he's fucking number one overall. Best team. Denver 743 00:36:50,160 --> 00:36:54,319 Speaker 3: has been good, Luca. He's missed some games. He had 744 00:36:54,320 --> 00:36:56,719 Speaker 3: little cash strained the other night, right or it's contusion 745 00:36:56,920 --> 00:36:59,560 Speaker 3: that made him sit out. So they lost to the Clippers, 746 00:36:59,600 --> 00:37:03,040 Speaker 3: which was inexcusable, but he sat out, and that just 747 00:37:03,080 --> 00:37:04,680 Speaker 3: lets you know how valuable is because when he's not 748 00:37:04,719 --> 00:37:07,480 Speaker 3: on the floor, they can't win. Also, Austin Reeves wasn't playing, 749 00:37:08,719 --> 00:37:12,000 Speaker 3: so yeah, that's about right. That's about right, Paul. 750 00:37:11,840 --> 00:37:12,960 Speaker 2: What do you think about this ballot? 751 00:37:14,160 --> 00:37:17,279 Speaker 4: I like it and these are my five in the 752 00:37:17,360 --> 00:37:19,880 Speaker 4: top five. Only two out switch right now would be 753 00:37:20,000 --> 00:37:21,560 Speaker 4: probably joke Its and s g. 754 00:37:21,600 --> 00:37:26,080 Speaker 1: A got you, Yeah, I think, and in the actual poll, 755 00:37:27,000 --> 00:37:31,360 Speaker 1: I think they're really super duper close. Like s g 756 00:37:31,480 --> 00:37:34,080 Speaker 1: A is not like running away with the MVP. Their 757 00:37:34,160 --> 00:37:36,359 Speaker 1: necker basically you can't run away. 758 00:37:39,239 --> 00:37:42,439 Speaker 4: Come on first of the first and rebound crazy top 759 00:37:42,480 --> 00:37:45,600 Speaker 4: five and scoring like crazy, come on, come on, and 760 00:37:45,640 --> 00:37:47,520 Speaker 4: they're keeping paced like keeping. 761 00:37:48,960 --> 00:37:52,680 Speaker 1: And what I would say to I would probably switch 762 00:37:52,800 --> 00:37:57,359 Speaker 1: Kde and Jalen Brunson. But I would also say that 763 00:37:58,320 --> 00:38:02,320 Speaker 1: there's a this kind of a line between Sga Jokich 764 00:38:02,360 --> 00:38:05,319 Speaker 1: and Luca in terms of the production they've put on 765 00:38:05,360 --> 00:38:09,000 Speaker 1: the court. I think Luca, he's it seems like he's 766 00:38:09,160 --> 00:38:11,640 Speaker 1: very prone to missing games, and to me, that could 767 00:38:11,680 --> 00:38:14,839 Speaker 1: push Kate and Jalen, even though on a per game 768 00:38:14,920 --> 00:38:18,640 Speaker 1: production basis they're not on Luca's level, but in the aggregate, 769 00:38:18,719 --> 00:38:21,279 Speaker 1: if they play more games, I'm gonna have to put 770 00:38:21,280 --> 00:38:23,879 Speaker 1: them ahead of Luca on the ballot. Right, But yeah, 771 00:38:23,960 --> 00:38:26,480 Speaker 1: Sga Jokic, I still got SGA Like the team is 772 00:38:26,480 --> 00:38:29,360 Speaker 1: on a seventy four win pace, even after losing a 773 00:38:29,400 --> 00:38:31,280 Speaker 1: really dope game against Minnesota. 774 00:38:31,400 --> 00:38:34,399 Speaker 2: I still got SGA slightly against Yo Kitchen. 775 00:38:34,480 --> 00:38:37,480 Speaker 1: I think what he's doing like he's just made himself 776 00:38:37,480 --> 00:38:40,200 Speaker 1: into an insanely unstoppable player. 777 00:38:40,400 --> 00:38:44,000 Speaker 4: I also have one more change I would I would 778 00:38:44,000 --> 00:38:48,160 Speaker 4: have Joker, Sga, Luca and win before. 779 00:38:48,840 --> 00:38:50,680 Speaker 2: When before who were kicking out of the top five. 780 00:38:52,680 --> 00:38:55,759 Speaker 4: I have to give I have to kick Jalen Oh 781 00:38:55,800 --> 00:38:57,560 Speaker 4: wowk number five. 782 00:38:58,040 --> 00:39:01,759 Speaker 2: You hit that New York Paul Pierce guy out of 783 00:39:01,800 --> 00:39:04,200 Speaker 2: the top five shot shot. 784 00:39:07,080 --> 00:39:08,879 Speaker 3: I'm surprised you to put Jalen Brown in there. 785 00:39:09,719 --> 00:39:13,080 Speaker 4: Well, when Wimby's played, he's good, phenomenal he's been and 786 00:39:13,080 --> 00:39:15,080 Speaker 4: that's the reason they're the number two team and the 787 00:39:14,960 --> 00:39:15,600 Speaker 4: in the in. 788 00:39:15,560 --> 00:39:16,600 Speaker 2: The West for sure. 789 00:39:16,680 --> 00:39:18,600 Speaker 1: And and I think he I think he's played at 790 00:39:18,600 --> 00:39:22,200 Speaker 1: an m v P caliber when he's been in there. 791 00:39:22,760 --> 00:39:23,720 Speaker 2: He's just got to put. 792 00:39:24,080 --> 00:39:24,520 Speaker 3: Off the bench. 793 00:39:24,800 --> 00:39:28,120 Speaker 4: Yeah, last three or four game, like five six game 794 00:39:28,200 --> 00:39:29,440 Speaker 4: winning streaks right now. 795 00:39:29,760 --> 00:39:33,880 Speaker 1: Smoke the Wizards. My word, they kicked their asses. 796 00:39:35,239 --> 00:39:37,720 Speaker 3: They have a pretty good schedule right now. I also 797 00:39:37,760 --> 00:39:42,000 Speaker 3: think if Luke, if Luca doesn't drop and aar is playing, 798 00:39:42,120 --> 00:39:45,080 Speaker 3: Lakers would still be solid. Denver and Houston they've been 799 00:39:45,080 --> 00:39:48,040 Speaker 3: playing each other last couple of weeks, they would still 800 00:39:48,080 --> 00:39:49,560 Speaker 3: be in the top two too, if they didn't have 801 00:39:49,560 --> 00:39:51,600 Speaker 3: to play each other the whole last couple of weeks. 802 00:39:52,760 --> 00:39:54,640 Speaker 3: But yeah, you gotta give Spurs a lot of credit. 803 00:39:54,719 --> 00:39:56,959 Speaker 3: They're playing well. I don't know if I put Winby 804 00:39:56,960 --> 00:39:58,960 Speaker 3: in my top five right now, though, he is very good, 805 00:39:59,000 --> 00:40:01,240 Speaker 3: but I have to see fully healthy and be healthy 806 00:40:01,280 --> 00:40:06,759 Speaker 3: for a while. I want to game behind each other. 807 00:40:07,040 --> 00:40:11,360 Speaker 1: It's important, common is important. I want to know what 808 00:40:11,480 --> 00:40:13,719 Speaker 1: are you guys criteria for MVP. I think that's one 809 00:40:13,719 --> 00:40:16,799 Speaker 1: of the coolest things about the NBA. Everybody kind of 810 00:40:16,800 --> 00:40:21,040 Speaker 1: has their own criteria for what they think the MVP is. 811 00:40:21,440 --> 00:40:23,920 Speaker 2: What would you define as your MVP criteria? 812 00:40:24,080 --> 00:40:27,560 Speaker 4: So combination of team success with the end of the visual 813 00:40:27,680 --> 00:40:30,760 Speaker 4: success and you know, throughout the course of the season. 814 00:40:30,880 --> 00:40:33,440 Speaker 4: So if your team is thriving as a top seed 815 00:40:34,000 --> 00:40:37,000 Speaker 4: and you're killing. 816 00:40:36,440 --> 00:40:40,520 Speaker 5: Like I mean, you're you're you're spearheading the best. 817 00:40:40,840 --> 00:40:46,480 Speaker 1: So you're saying, if two guys are close and individual achievement, 818 00:40:47,760 --> 00:40:50,319 Speaker 1: I mean, are you going to make the team success 819 00:40:50,719 --> 00:40:53,480 Speaker 1: put them over or are you waiting the individual achievement 820 00:40:53,560 --> 00:40:55,040 Speaker 1: more than you are the team? 821 00:40:55,080 --> 00:40:57,520 Speaker 4: Individual achievement has a lot of weight with me with 822 00:40:57,600 --> 00:41:03,239 Speaker 4: the success Like like jokers, his his the magnitude of 823 00:41:03,239 --> 00:41:06,840 Speaker 4: what he's bringing to the table all across the board. 824 00:41:06,880 --> 00:41:10,879 Speaker 4: It's like he's the system, and the system is clockwork 825 00:41:11,160 --> 00:41:15,120 Speaker 4: and it's working and it's dominant, and it's like, geez, 826 00:41:15,760 --> 00:41:18,319 Speaker 4: what about you, what do you what do you win? 827 00:41:20,200 --> 00:41:22,400 Speaker 3: I don't disagree with p I think that's fair, but 828 00:41:22,840 --> 00:41:25,960 Speaker 3: I think every instance is different. I like to put 829 00:41:26,200 --> 00:41:29,200 Speaker 3: obviously the team's success and winning matters, But if they're 830 00:41:29,200 --> 00:41:33,000 Speaker 3: a neck and neck, I'm going with the guy that 831 00:41:33,080 --> 00:41:36,840 Speaker 3: I feel like has less around him, let's expectation of 832 00:41:36,920 --> 00:41:38,799 Speaker 3: let's help around him. You know what I'm saying, Like 833 00:41:39,200 --> 00:41:41,080 Speaker 3: he's more valuable to that group, because if you take 834 00:41:41,160 --> 00:41:45,160 Speaker 3: him off, it's that group. How much different is the group? 835 00:41:47,040 --> 00:41:54,399 Speaker 2: Are we punishing guys for having competent gms? I mean, 836 00:41:55,960 --> 00:41:57,640 Speaker 2: I'm just asking. I'm just saying because these are the 837 00:41:57,719 --> 00:41:58,640 Speaker 2: questions that people. 838 00:41:58,440 --> 00:42:01,959 Speaker 3: Know because they I'm still winning the MVP. The guys 839 00:42:02,000 --> 00:42:04,080 Speaker 3: that have good teams still don't winning MVP. You don't 840 00:42:04,120 --> 00:42:07,800 Speaker 3: get really punished. You're still winning. But again, I gotta 841 00:42:07,840 --> 00:42:10,720 Speaker 3: give the guy that had less and is more valuable 842 00:42:10,719 --> 00:42:14,040 Speaker 3: to his team because this is the most valuable player. 843 00:42:14,160 --> 00:42:17,360 Speaker 3: So you have more value to your team because if 844 00:42:17,520 --> 00:42:20,040 Speaker 3: you didn't have you, our team would look. 845 00:42:21,239 --> 00:42:22,960 Speaker 5: Every year the last five years. 846 00:42:23,960 --> 00:42:27,720 Speaker 1: Yeah, and he's been in the top three, top two. 847 00:42:29,120 --> 00:42:30,239 Speaker 2: Every single year. 848 00:42:30,400 --> 00:42:32,280 Speaker 3: I mean, okay, so it would look a lot different 849 00:42:32,320 --> 00:42:39,799 Speaker 3: without as well. I probably, yes, yes, But. 850 00:42:41,400 --> 00:42:42,239 Speaker 5: You got to and that. 851 00:42:42,600 --> 00:42:46,960 Speaker 3: But this year, but this year, with Denver. 852 00:42:46,760 --> 00:42:50,000 Speaker 1: Being healthy, I think Jamal Murray is tired of never 853 00:42:50,080 --> 00:42:53,080 Speaker 1: being having been to an All Star Game this year. 854 00:42:53,160 --> 00:42:56,680 Speaker 3: So this year I beg to differ that Denver's team 855 00:42:56,760 --> 00:42:59,719 Speaker 3: this year is better than previous years and that if 856 00:42:59,719 --> 00:43:03,239 Speaker 3: you took s G A and that Denver's team they're 857 00:43:03,239 --> 00:43:05,239 Speaker 3: not they might even be better, if not the same 858 00:43:05,320 --> 00:43:08,319 Speaker 3: as Okay CS team with the help we have Aaron Gordon, 859 00:43:08,400 --> 00:43:14,000 Speaker 3: Jamal Murray, Christian Brown, Bruce Brown, Tim Hardaway, r. Cam 860 00:43:14,080 --> 00:43:19,160 Speaker 3: Johnson offense with that have a lot of good teams. 861 00:43:21,560 --> 00:43:26,680 Speaker 5: That it just looks like you can't do it without it. Amazing. 862 00:43:27,520 --> 00:43:29,360 Speaker 4: Yeah, So like that's what I'm saying. When he is 863 00:43:29,400 --> 00:43:31,720 Speaker 4: the system and you take the system out, what system 864 00:43:31,760 --> 00:43:32,319 Speaker 4: do they run? 865 00:43:32,800 --> 00:43:37,719 Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't know. System is the best defense. That 866 00:43:37,840 --> 00:43:39,719 Speaker 1: is one of the best defenses we've ever seen. I 867 00:43:39,760 --> 00:43:43,200 Speaker 1: think they even without Shay, they'd be an extremely elite defense. 868 00:43:43,239 --> 00:43:44,360 Speaker 2: They win a ton of games. 869 00:43:44,680 --> 00:43:48,279 Speaker 1: I wouldn't give him a chance of significant in the playoffs. 870 00:43:48,800 --> 00:43:52,440 Speaker 1: But yeah, for me, it's all about the individual output. 871 00:43:53,960 --> 00:43:55,680 Speaker 1: At the same time, you got to get into the 872 00:43:55,680 --> 00:43:58,719 Speaker 1: top four year conference, Like I don't want to see 873 00:43:58,719 --> 00:43:59,760 Speaker 1: a sixth seed MDP. 874 00:44:00,239 --> 00:44:02,000 Speaker 2: I'm not with it, you know what I mean? 875 00:44:02,400 --> 00:44:05,640 Speaker 1: And then like I weigh the team's success less, but 876 00:44:05,680 --> 00:44:06,960 Speaker 1: it's still important to me. 877 00:44:07,360 --> 00:44:08,239 Speaker 2: I think you do. 878 00:44:08,360 --> 00:44:11,279 Speaker 1: Your team needs to be doing something of significance. You 879 00:44:11,320 --> 00:44:12,920 Speaker 1: got your team should have a chance to win a 880 00:44:13,000 --> 00:44:16,840 Speaker 1: championship this year. As if you're the freaking MVP, you 881 00:44:16,880 --> 00:44:20,200 Speaker 1: know what I mean? And no, six speaking, six seeds 882 00:44:20,440 --> 00:44:22,000 Speaker 1: are not chip ship continuers. 883 00:44:23,120 --> 00:44:26,440 Speaker 3: So you're you're punishing guys for having incompetent gms. 884 00:44:27,640 --> 00:44:28,600 Speaker 2: Yeah you can say so. 885 00:44:28,800 --> 00:44:33,640 Speaker 1: Yeah, you can say that I'm punishing the bad gms. 886 00:44:33,640 --> 00:44:36,520 Speaker 2: Your players don't get to win individual awards. 887 00:44:37,680 --> 00:44:39,480 Speaker 3: Is putting up will if nice is putting up wilt 888 00:44:39,520 --> 00:44:41,240 Speaker 3: numbers and they're. 889 00:44:41,200 --> 00:44:45,000 Speaker 2: Six playing team, I don't give a damn. It's meaningless. 890 00:44:45,600 --> 00:44:47,800 Speaker 3: Six though six is not playing. Six is not playing. 891 00:44:48,120 --> 00:44:52,360 Speaker 2: No, I know, but you're teetering on playing. You're barely 892 00:44:52,400 --> 00:44:52,960 Speaker 2: out the player. 893 00:44:52,960 --> 00:44:54,759 Speaker 5: You don't have to put some numbers that I just 894 00:44:54,800 --> 00:44:55,320 Speaker 5: can't believe. 895 00:44:55,640 --> 00:45:00,879 Speaker 3: Yeah, six thirty eight, sixteen, and twelve mm hmm. 896 00:45:01,480 --> 00:45:03,759 Speaker 1: If your team can't make it into the top four 897 00:45:03,800 --> 00:45:06,000 Speaker 1: of the conference while you're doing that, something is off. 898 00:45:06,640 --> 00:45:09,120 Speaker 3: That's crazy wise numbers. 899 00:45:09,120 --> 00:45:12,440 Speaker 1: I just said, look if it, if it can't coincide 900 00:45:12,520 --> 00:45:15,240 Speaker 1: with actual winning, then something you're doing is weird. 901 00:45:16,000 --> 00:45:19,359 Speaker 3: That's that's what. There's sixty. There's no playing game there. 902 00:45:19,360 --> 00:45:22,040 Speaker 3: The tops there, they don't make anything. There's six. 903 00:45:22,440 --> 00:45:24,719 Speaker 2: It's not good enough. That's not the standard. We want 904 00:45:24,719 --> 00:45:25,560 Speaker 2: to say for m v P. 905 00:45:27,600 --> 00:45:31,279 Speaker 4: Mhm joking did it?

When I saw this news flash shouts 920 00:46:18,760 --> 00:46:21,719 Speaker 1: to my man John Krasinski of The Athletic He's the 921 00:46:21,760 --> 00:46:26,720 Speaker 1: one that first reported this that Kevin Garnett and Jeff 922 00:46:26,800 --> 00:46:31,239 Speaker 1: Lourie and Alex Rodriguez have come to an agreement. He's 923 00:46:31,280 --> 00:46:35,480 Speaker 1: gonna be brought on officially now with the organization for 924 00:46:35,600 --> 00:46:36,920 Speaker 1: some off court stuff. 925 00:46:38,440 --> 00:46:39,759 Speaker 2: For people who don't know. 926 00:46:40,160 --> 00:46:44,360 Speaker 1: KG has been a strange for years from the Minnesota 927 00:46:44,400 --> 00:46:45,560 Speaker 1: Timberwolves franchise. 928 00:46:45,719 --> 00:46:47,800 Speaker 2: Him and Glenn Taylor did not get along. 929 00:46:49,239 --> 00:46:51,600 Speaker 1: The two are at odds over Garnett's first stint with 930 00:46:51,640 --> 00:46:55,440 Speaker 1: the Timberwolves when it ended in two thousand and seven 931 00:46:56,200 --> 00:46:58,920 Speaker 1: and he got traded to Boston, where he linked up 932 00:46:58,920 --> 00:46:59,600 Speaker 1: with Peter Win. 933 00:46:59,440 --> 00:47:00,879 Speaker 2: His first time be championship. 934 00:47:01,400 --> 00:47:05,960 Speaker 1: After a brief reconciliation, keV returned to the team in 935 00:47:06,000 --> 00:47:10,880 Speaker 1: twenty fifteen. People like me will recall he was trying 936 00:47:10,920 --> 00:47:14,200 Speaker 1: to whip Karl, Anthony Towns and Andrew Wiggins into shape 937 00:47:14,239 --> 00:47:16,880 Speaker 1: and not even the great Big Ticket could do that. 938 00:47:17,840 --> 00:47:21,920 Speaker 1: The relationship again fell into disrepair after the death of 939 00:47:21,960 --> 00:47:24,719 Speaker 1: the coach and president Flip Saunders, who had broken the 940 00:47:24,760 --> 00:47:28,640 Speaker 1: truth between the sides. A Rod and Laurier released a 941 00:47:28,680 --> 00:47:32,160 Speaker 1: statement saying bringing Kevin home has been a priority since 942 00:47:32,200 --> 00:47:35,799 Speaker 1: we acquired the teams. The team excuse me, he's the 943 00:47:35,840 --> 00:47:38,760 Speaker 1: greatest player in Timberwolve's history. I think that's not even 944 00:47:39,200 --> 00:47:45,640 Speaker 1: for debate. KG is the Minnesota Timberwolve's career leader and scoring, rebounding. 945 00:47:45,040 --> 00:47:49,120 Speaker 2: Block, shots, assists, and steals, and. 946 00:47:49,080 --> 00:47:52,360 Speaker 1: In twenty eighteen, Kevin Garnett said, quote, just know that 947 00:47:52,560 --> 00:47:55,759 Speaker 1: just because I ain't in the rafters, don't mean I 948 00:47:55,760 --> 00:47:56,600 Speaker 1: ain't in that building. 949 00:47:56,640 --> 00:47:57,000 Speaker 2: Every night. 950 00:47:57,120 --> 00:48:00,800 Speaker 1: I left my spirit, I left my soul.

I left my spirit and 957 00:48:21,080 --> 00:48:24,560 Speaker 1: my soul in there. You can never replace that, you 958 00:48:24,600 --> 00:48:28,120 Speaker 1: feel me that will always be forever as long as 959 00:48:28,160 --> 00:48:32,000 Speaker 1: they have the Timberwolves in Minnesota. And now he's finally 960 00:48:32,040 --> 00:48:35,799 Speaker 1: getting his just due.

If you could, 963 00:48:41,560 --> 00:48:43,200 Speaker 2: you know, speak for him really quickly. 964 00:48:43,280 --> 00:48:45,640 Speaker 4: This is everything, you know, It's been a long time 965 00:48:45,640 --> 00:48:50,120 Speaker 4: coming since the relationship fell out, you know, back in 966 00:48:50,200 --> 00:48:54,160 Speaker 4: the day with Glenn Taylor. And I'm happy that you know, 967 00:48:54,280 --> 00:48:59,759 Speaker 4: the d A Rod leadership and ownership did this. This 968 00:48:59,840 --> 00:49:03,080 Speaker 4: is important for the fabric of the league because you 969 00:49:03,160 --> 00:49:06,080 Speaker 4: have the greatest player in the history of the Temple Wolves, 970 00:49:06,120 --> 00:49:07,640 Speaker 4: not no presence. 971 00:49:07,200 --> 00:49:12,480 Speaker 6: There, like like you know, playoff games, yeah, playoff games 972 00:49:12,600 --> 00:49:16,400 Speaker 6: and crazy and with the owner's box, the jersey's not advertised, 973 00:49:16,440 --> 00:49:17,319 Speaker 6: jersey's not up there. 974 00:49:17,400 --> 00:49:22,080 Speaker 4: It's like the statues. What's going on with Minnesota culture? 975 00:49:22,120 --> 00:49:24,000 Speaker 4: What's like, Yeah, what really happened? 976 00:49:24,040 --> 00:49:24,239 Speaker 1: You know? 977 00:49:24,480 --> 00:49:27,919 Speaker 4: And for them to bring that back, it's big for 978 00:49:28,360 --> 00:49:29,480 Speaker 4: the Wolves and the city. 979 00:49:29,520 --> 00:49:32,960 Speaker 5: They need that, they need U DNA in the city. 980 00:49:33,120 --> 00:49:34,719 Speaker 4: So I'm happy that a Rod and the group was 981 00:49:34,760 --> 00:49:37,480 Speaker 4: able to do that and they can honor the greatest 982 00:49:37,480 --> 00:49:39,960 Speaker 4: player to ever play for the Minnesota Temple Wolves. 983 00:49:40,160 --> 00:49:43,480 Speaker 1: Danny, you still have a very close relationship with the Spurs, 984 00:49:43,880 --> 00:49:47,440 Speaker 1: who I think clearly just do a good job of 985 00:49:47,520 --> 00:49:52,279 Speaker 1: maintaining that connection to all of the past great Spurs, 986 00:49:53,719 --> 00:50:00,960 Speaker 1: whether that be the Admiral David Robinson, Timmy Manu, Tony, yourself, 987 00:50:01,440 --> 00:50:06,359 Speaker 1: Sean Elliott's on the broadcast, like why do you think 988 00:50:06,400 --> 00:50:10,640 Speaker 1: the Spurs are able to keep the family close in 989 00:50:10,680 --> 00:50:11,600 Speaker 1: the way that they do. 990 00:50:14,160 --> 00:50:16,600 Speaker 3: That's a great question wise.

When they get there, 997 00:50:33,480 --> 00:50:35,480 Speaker 3: they stay there, and I've got I have good rapport 998 00:50:35,680 --> 00:50:38,440 Speaker 3: most of the teams I played for Toronto, La. Of 999 00:50:38,480 --> 00:50:40,960 Speaker 3: course those teams were I won, the other ones not 1000 00:50:41,040 --> 00:50:43,640 Speaker 3: as much. But they just make it feel like home. 1001 00:50:43,760 --> 00:50:45,799 Speaker 3: You know, they treat you like family, even though on 1002 00:50:45,840 --> 00:50:48,160 Speaker 3: the court, you know, pop was tough and they get 1003 00:50:48,160 --> 00:50:50,960 Speaker 3: on you, but they took care of your family. They 1004 00:50:51,520 --> 00:50:54,879 Speaker 3: made you feel welcome in the city. The fans many, 1005 00:50:55,000 --> 00:50:57,400 Speaker 3: it's all they had.

They're not 1023 00:51:43,920 --> 00:51:46,719 Speaker 1: having to know a few Timberwolves fans in my life, 1024 00:51:46,760 --> 00:51:50,160 Speaker 1: and I know generally speaking, like Timberwolves fans have a 1025 00:51:50,320 --> 00:51:54,480 Speaker 1: great reverence for everything that he's done over the like 1026 00:51:54,520 --> 00:51:59,520 Speaker 1: he's universally beloved. And because the Timberwolves aren't a legacy franchise, 1027 00:51:59,600 --> 00:52:02,520 Speaker 1: like they're fairly new. When you think about teams like 1028 00:52:02,560 --> 00:52:05,160 Speaker 1: the Lakers or the Celtics or the Knicks who are 1029 00:52:05,160 --> 00:52:07,799 Speaker 1: like foundational NBA teams, they're newer. 1030 00:52:08,040 --> 00:52:14,600 Speaker 2: Franchise like KG is Timberwolve's history. There is no outside 1031 00:52:14,600 --> 00:52:15,760 Speaker 2: of him. 1032 00:52:15,960 --> 00:52:18,480 Speaker 4: Yeah, and if you don't have anything like in the arena, 1033 00:52:18,800 --> 00:52:21,360 Speaker 4: it's in sound the arena, Like what have you built 1034 00:52:21,440 --> 00:52:23,840 Speaker 4: as an organization and it starts with the ownership. 1035 00:52:23,960 --> 00:52:25,719 Speaker 5: Think about it's always the ownership. 1036 00:52:25,960 --> 00:52:30,000 Speaker 1: Explain why that's important, Like the pivotal role that ownership 1037 00:52:30,000 --> 00:52:34,440 Speaker 1: plays in making these stuff, this stuff come to fruition. 1038 00:52:34,640 --> 00:52:37,960 Speaker 4: Well, as a player, when you're a franchise player, you 1039 00:52:38,080 --> 00:52:40,960 Speaker 4: an ownership are like a partner, like look at what 1040 00:52:41,000 --> 00:52:44,480 Speaker 4: I've done for this franchise, you know, like over the years, 1041 00:52:44,600 --> 00:52:47,040 Speaker 4: not only on the court, off the court, look at 1042 00:52:47,080 --> 00:52:50,320 Speaker 4: what I have submitted and the owner building community and 1043 00:52:50,440 --> 00:52:53,759 Speaker 4: y'all have a relationship because he understands that you helped 1044 00:52:53,760 --> 00:52:55,799 Speaker 4: build the culture around here, you kept it going. 1045 00:52:56,080 --> 00:52:57,640 Speaker 5: You've done so many things for the city. 1046 00:52:57,680 --> 00:53:00,480 Speaker 4: So now when you retire, it should be open when 1047 00:53:00,480 --> 00:53:02,920 Speaker 4: you come back based on you know, the things that 1048 00:53:02,960 --> 00:53:06,200 Speaker 4: you've done for that city and that franchise. So and 1049 00:53:06,480 --> 00:53:10,200 Speaker 4: the reason he wasn't there was obviously the ownership wasn't great. Yeah, 1050 00:53:10,280 --> 00:53:12,960 Speaker 4: you know, and it shows you what type of not 1051 00:53:13,040 --> 00:53:17,600 Speaker 4: only culture, but like family type of like organizations that 1052 00:53:17,600 --> 00:53:19,640 Speaker 4: that just deal with that. And you know it's not 1053 00:53:19,719 --> 00:53:22,880 Speaker 4: everybody like the Spurs have it. You see the Celtics 1054 00:53:22,920 --> 00:53:25,520 Speaker 4: having you know, I don't I don't pay attention to 1055 00:53:25,560 --> 00:53:28,040 Speaker 4: a lot of other organizations the Knicks have it. You 1056 00:53:28,040 --> 00:53:30,799 Speaker 4: see a lot of the Knicks all about that, Yeah, 1057 00:53:31,000 --> 00:53:33,600 Speaker 4: all about that. But those are all class organizations. Not 1058 00:53:33,640 --> 00:53:34,480 Speaker 4: everybody's doing that. 1059 00:53:34,760 --> 00:53:37,800 Speaker 1: Yeah, And I mean, just the last thing I will 1060 00:53:37,840 --> 00:53:43,080 Speaker 1: say is that it's my opinion that if KG would 1061 00:53:43,120 --> 00:53:47,000 Speaker 1: have got drafted to a well, a better run organization, 1062 00:53:47,520 --> 00:53:49,280 Speaker 1: we would think of him the way we think about 1063 00:53:49,280 --> 00:53:52,400 Speaker 1: Tim Duncan and Kobe and all these other guys. He 1064 00:53:52,520 --> 00:53:56,600 Speaker 1: got all these other guy all of his peers the 1065 00:53:56,800 --> 00:53:59,600 Speaker 1: second he got to a winning organization in the freaking 1066 00:53:59,640 --> 00:54:04,160 Speaker 1: final conference finals every single freaking season, right, And I think, 1067 00:54:04,239 --> 00:54:06,880 Speaker 1: you know, it's unfortunate the way his career played out 1068 00:54:07,000 --> 00:54:09,600 Speaker 1: very early on in Minnesota. But I really do think 1069 00:54:09,600 --> 00:54:12,799 Speaker 1: it's it's just management and competence that we don't see, 1070 00:54:12,800 --> 00:54:17,320 Speaker 1: because KG coulda should have with better management, had three rings, 1071 00:54:17,360 --> 00:54:19,120 Speaker 1: you know, and people would think about them differently, but 1072 00:54:19,239 --> 00:54:22,279 Speaker 1: I certainly hold them in that super high regard. All Right, 1073 00:54:22,320 --> 00:54:25,160 Speaker 1: we're gonna get you guys out of here on our 1074 00:54:25,280 --> 00:54:29,920 Speaker 1: very last standing on business. And it's related to Carmelo Anthony, 1075 00:54:29,960 --> 00:54:33,960 Speaker 1: who had some choice words for his former GM speaking 1076 00:54:34,000 --> 00:54:39,719 Speaker 1: of management and incompetence. His former GM Phil Jackson were 1077 00:54:39,760 --> 00:54:44,040 Speaker 1: Melo stated, quote, you're the president of the team, talking 1078 00:54:44,120 --> 00:54:47,760 Speaker 1: shit about the team. And if you're talking shit about 1079 00:54:47,800 --> 00:54:52,360 Speaker 1: the team and the team's not good, then who do 1080 00:54:52,480 --> 00:54:58,919 Speaker 1: the bullets go to? N He's basically saying, you're talking 1081 00:54:59,200 --> 00:55:01,640 Speaker 1: about the team that you run, you talking about yourself? 1082 00:55:01,719 --> 00:55:01,919 Speaker 2: Bro? 1083 00:55:02,120 --> 00:55:03,120 Speaker 5: Yeah? Well through that? 1084 00:55:04,600 --> 00:55:07,279 Speaker 2: Or like you talking about me? 1085 00:55:07,640 --> 00:55:09,320 Speaker 5: Like bro, because you put. 1086 00:55:10,120 --> 00:55:13,160 Speaker 1: You put this ship together, like I'm sorry, Phil Jackson, 1087 00:55:13,520 --> 00:55:15,440 Speaker 1: And it was or. 1088 00:55:15,400 --> 00:55:18,040 Speaker 3: The guys under him, the GM, the front office, the 1089 00:55:18,080 --> 00:55:20,680 Speaker 3: other front office guys that maybe saying he wasn't a 1090 00:55:20,680 --> 00:55:22,440 Speaker 3: part of the draft. 1091 00:55:22,719 --> 00:55:24,360 Speaker 2: No, he was a part of the draft. 1092 00:55:25,080 --> 00:55:26,920 Speaker 1: But I will look, this is what I will say 1093 00:55:26,920 --> 00:55:30,239 Speaker 1: about Phil's tenure in New York because I remember it vividly. 1094 00:55:30,920 --> 00:55:34,400 Speaker 1: First of all, they begged him to come coach the team. 1095 00:55:34,840 --> 00:55:36,919 Speaker 1: I mean to excuse me, they begged him to come 1096 00:55:37,000 --> 00:55:39,239 Speaker 1: GM the team. Dolan had this thing where he was 1097 00:55:39,320 --> 00:55:41,120 Speaker 1: just tired of getting blamed for everything. 1098 00:55:41,760 --> 00:55:44,560 Speaker 2: So in his mind, every person around. 1099 00:55:44,280 --> 00:55:46,760 Speaker 3: Then they want to coach. First, They wanted to coach. 1100 00:55:49,320 --> 00:55:51,080 Speaker 3: I'm not going to travel the whole. 1101 00:55:51,440 --> 00:55:53,839 Speaker 2: He didn't have the health, but they they asked him 1102 00:55:53,840 --> 00:55:55,279 Speaker 2: to be a GM. He said no. 1103 00:55:55,760 --> 00:55:58,560 Speaker 1: They came back, Yo, we'll give you forty five million. 1104 00:55:58,960 --> 00:56:01,440 Speaker 1: He said, no, I'm good.
