29
00:01:30,640 --> 00:01:34,160
Speaker 2: Day coming up as well the NFL combine later this week.

30
00:01:34,360 --> 00:01:37,640
Speaker 2: The Rams have said to Matthew Stafford, go ahead, test

31
00:01:37,680 --> 00:01:40,959
Speaker 2: the market. And if there's a franchise that knows about

32
00:01:41,080 --> 00:01:44,679
Speaker 2: letting a quarterback go who is close to winning or

33
00:01:44,880 --> 00:01:48,840
Speaker 2: has won, it's the Rams. They did this with Jared Goff,

34
00:01:48,840 --> 00:01:51,080
Speaker 2: who had gone to a Super Bowl with them. They

35
00:01:51,120 --> 00:01:54,560
Speaker 2: got Stafford in return. Now they're gonna let Stafford test

36
00:01:54,600 --> 00:01:58,240
Speaker 2: the market and maybe you get his replacement. Maybe it's

37
00:01:58,240 --> 00:02:00,560
Speaker 2: a Sam Darnold kind of situation where you go a

38
00:02:00,640 --> 00:02:03,800
Speaker 2: little younger. And I'm sure with Sean McVay, Sean McVay

39
00:02:03,880 --> 00:02:07,840
Speaker 2: probably thinks I'm the genius here. I'll turn somebody into

40
00:02:07,920 --> 00:02:12,040
Speaker 2: a great player. But the Rams letting Stafford gauge the market.

41
00:02:12,280 --> 00:02:16,360
Speaker 2: We'll talk about the potential options there. The Spurs have

42
00:02:16,480 --> 00:02:20,280
Speaker 2: lost Greg Popovich and Victor wembn Yama for the year now.

43
00:02:20,320 --> 00:02:23,239
Speaker 2: Popovich has been out for a long time with the stroke.

44
00:02:23,320 --> 00:02:26,600
Speaker 2: Wem ben Yama has a blood clot in his shoulder.

45
00:02:27,520 --> 00:02:31,320
Speaker 2: And because it's the Spurs and it's rare when they

46
00:02:31,360 --> 00:02:34,120
Speaker 2: have news and they make it even bigger than what

47
00:02:34,200 --> 00:02:36,440
Speaker 2: it normally is. If this was New York or LA

48
00:02:36,600 --> 00:02:39,320
Speaker 2: or Boston or Philly, it feels like it would be

49
00:02:39,360 --> 00:02:42,120
Speaker 2: a bigger thing. To me, it's scary because we've had

50
00:02:42,200 --> 00:02:45,440
Speaker 2: Chris Bosh who had a blood clot that cuts short

51
00:02:45,520 --> 00:02:48,720
Speaker 2: his Hall of Fame career. Here's ween ben Yama, who's

52
00:02:48,760 --> 00:02:54,080
Speaker 2: twenty one, and the blood clot in your shoulder. Now

53
00:02:54,440 --> 00:02:56,160
Speaker 2: I know it's not a knee or a foot for

54
00:02:56,240 --> 00:03:01,880
Speaker 2: a big guy, but this, to me is it feels

55
00:03:01,880 --> 00:03:05,880
Speaker 2: like it should be more concerning that. Maybe nationally it's playing.

56
00:03:07,760 --> 00:03:10,200
Speaker 2: Here's the future face of the NBA, a player who

57
00:03:10,240 --> 00:03:11,760
Speaker 2: I think will be the best player in the game

58
00:03:11,800 --> 00:03:15,560
Speaker 2: by the time he's twenty five. This is worldwide and

59
00:03:16,360 --> 00:03:19,800
Speaker 2: just feels like, oh, they shut him down and we

60
00:03:19,919 --> 00:03:23,639
Speaker 2: moved on. Hey, let's talk about Luca's performance against Denver

61
00:03:24,160 --> 00:03:28,960
Speaker 2: or the Knicks getting blown out, but wembin Yama done

62
00:03:28,960 --> 00:03:33,680
Speaker 2: for the year, very very surprising with that news. Hopefully

63
00:03:33,680 --> 00:03:37,400
Speaker 2: it's nothing, but then it could be something. It could

64
00:03:37,480 --> 00:03:40,880
Speaker 2: be really, really something. So that was a little bit

65
00:03:40,920 --> 00:03:44,800
Speaker 2: of a surprise. Alexander Ovechkin a hat trick and now

66
00:03:44,880 --> 00:03:48,200
Speaker 2: thirteen away from topping Wayne Gretzky is the greatest goal

67
00:03:48,320 --> 00:03:52,440
Speaker 2: scorer of all time. Not the greatest scorer, Nobody's going

68
00:03:52,520 --> 00:03:57,040
Speaker 2: to get that, but Ovechkin is. He's chasing down gretz

69
00:03:57,720 --> 00:04:01,160
Speaker 2: Cavs Celtic's thunder Nuggets all of one nine of their

70
00:04:01,240 --> 00:04:03,920
Speaker 2: last ten. But the Nuggets did get roughed up against

71
00:04:03,920 --> 00:04:07,280
Speaker 2: the Lakers. And the one thing I think we weren't

72
00:04:07,320 --> 00:04:12,800
Speaker 2: fair to Luka Doncik about was the shock value of

73
00:04:12,840 --> 00:04:17,480
Speaker 2: being traded by the Mavericks because he didn't know, nobody

74
00:04:17,520 --> 00:04:20,599
Speaker 2: knew the next thing you know, you're being traded. He

75
00:04:20,640 --> 00:04:23,400
Speaker 2: thought he was being pranked, thought it was an April

76
00:04:23,480 --> 00:04:27,839
Speaker 2: Fool's Day joke a couple of months early. And I

77
00:04:27,839 --> 00:04:30,120
Speaker 2: don't know if we ever gave him the time to

78
00:04:30,760 --> 00:04:34,400
Speaker 2: get kind of acclimated to this. And that's what he

79
00:04:34,480 --> 00:04:36,560
Speaker 2: was saying, it was like, you know, I haven't played

80
00:04:36,680 --> 00:04:40,039
Speaker 2: very well, but I thought give ing two weeks to

81
00:04:40,120 --> 00:04:44,359
Speaker 2: find out. You know, where am I living? He just

82
00:04:44,480 --> 00:04:47,400
Speaker 2: bought a I don't know, fifteen or twenty million dollar

83
00:04:47,480 --> 00:04:52,640
Speaker 2: home in Dallas. And then next thing, you know, hey what, Yeah,

84
00:04:52,920 --> 00:04:55,880
Speaker 2: you're traded to the Lakers. No I'm not, Yes you are.

85
00:04:56,760 --> 00:04:59,560
Speaker 2: And Lakers getting used to him, him getting used to

86
00:04:59,560 --> 00:05:02,680
Speaker 2: the Lakers. And you saw that the other night against Denver.

87
00:05:03,040 --> 00:05:07,359
Speaker 2: But here's the thing, and I know this sounds a

88
00:05:07,400 --> 00:05:12,240
Speaker 2: little bold, but if they play defense, and I know

89
00:05:12,279 --> 00:05:17,080
Speaker 2: it's a big if. If they play defense, they can

90
00:05:17,160 --> 00:05:22,880
Speaker 2: challenge for a championship. They played defense against Denver, and

91
00:05:23,000 --> 00:05:26,560
Speaker 2: that's JJ Redick devised a scheme where you're going man

92
00:05:26,640 --> 00:05:30,960
Speaker 2: and zone, they double triple team Joker. They did an

93
00:05:30,960 --> 00:05:33,760
Speaker 2: incredible job in Denver. They don't win in Denver, but

94
00:05:34,000 --> 00:05:37,640
Speaker 2: see that gave me the Okay, can they do that? Now?

95
00:05:38,400 --> 00:05:43,520
Speaker 2: Luca doesn't play defense, Lebron can This is where the

96
00:05:43,560 --> 00:05:48,360
Speaker 2: younger guys really have to almost inspire the other players,

97
00:05:48,440 --> 00:05:50,880
Speaker 2: Lebron and Luca to play some defense. Here. If they

98
00:05:50,880 --> 00:05:54,240
Speaker 2: play defense with the other weapons that they have in

99
00:05:54,279 --> 00:05:58,080
Speaker 2: the West they can challenge for a championship. Here is

100
00:05:58,200 --> 00:06:04,400
Speaker 2: Luca on what the win against Denver does for the team.

101
00:06:04,640 --> 00:06:05,400
Speaker 2: Corel confidence.

102
00:06:05,440 --> 00:06:08,320
Speaker 3: You know, I remember when was the last time I

103
00:06:08,360 --> 00:06:10,040
Speaker 3: won here? Is you know, it's very tough to play

104
00:06:10,040 --> 00:06:13,320
Speaker 3: here against that team, so you know, just to one

105
00:06:13,400 --> 00:06:15,599
Speaker 3: like that, it's it's an amazing win for us and

106
00:06:15,680 --> 00:06:17,920
Speaker 3: gives me a lot of confidence moving forward. Like I said,

107
00:06:17,920 --> 00:06:19,520
Speaker 3: you know, every day is going to get better. You know,

108
00:06:19,560 --> 00:06:22,719
Speaker 3: I'm getting to learn learn the place, but I'm getting

109
00:06:22,760 --> 00:06:25,280
Speaker 3: to learn that. But you know, us three, I think

110
00:06:25,480 --> 00:06:27,640
Speaker 3: it depends on the day. You know, everybody has so

111
00:06:27,720 --> 00:06:30,560
Speaker 3: much talent. So I think today the way we did,

112
00:06:30,600 --> 00:06:32,240
Speaker 3: the way we shared the ball was amazing and the

113
00:06:32,279 --> 00:06:34,440
Speaker 3: ball moving was amazing.

114
00:06:35,200 --> 00:06:38,760
Speaker 2: And Lebron talked about Luca as well in kind of

115
00:06:38,760 --> 00:06:39,840
Speaker 2: getting that chemistry.

116
00:06:40,760 --> 00:06:43,480
Speaker 4: I'm a natural born wide receiver and he's a natural

117
00:06:43,480 --> 00:06:46,320
Speaker 4: born quarterback, so it fits perfectly. I've been running the

118
00:06:46,360 --> 00:06:48,960
Speaker 4: floor and running lanes like you know, pretty much my

119
00:06:49,000 --> 00:06:51,160
Speaker 4: whole life, and he's been throwing great passes pretty much

120
00:06:51,200 --> 00:06:53,640
Speaker 4: his whole life. So it's not it's not hard to

121
00:06:53,960 --> 00:06:55,919
Speaker 4: get a rhythm when it comes to that. You know,

122
00:06:55,960 --> 00:06:58,719
Speaker 4: it's just all about you know eye contact and you

123
00:06:58,760 --> 00:07:00,880
Speaker 4: know him being a great quarterback like he is a

124
00:07:00,920 --> 00:07:02,000
Speaker 4: meet beann recipient of it.

125
00:07:02,960 --> 00:07:05,280
Speaker 2: And they got a pretty tough schedule coming up, some

126
00:07:05,440 --> 00:07:10,040
Speaker 2: back to backs. But if they play defense, and defense

127
00:07:10,080 --> 00:07:12,480
Speaker 2: to me comes down to do you want to play defense?

128
00:07:12,680 --> 00:07:15,720
Speaker 2: Because if you're getting to the NBA, you're probably a

129
00:07:15,760 --> 00:07:19,680
Speaker 2: really good athlete. And now it comes down to how

130
00:07:19,760 --> 00:07:22,040
Speaker 2: much do you really want to play defense? And is

131
00:07:22,080 --> 00:07:25,520
Speaker 2: it a team commitment? Also, your coach and JJ Reddick

132
00:07:25,560 --> 00:07:28,280
Speaker 2: once again did a great job because you shut down

133
00:07:28,600 --> 00:07:32,520
Speaker 2: Joker had seven seven field goal TEMs. He has that

134
00:07:32,560 --> 00:07:35,480
Speaker 2: in a quarter. He has triple doubles before the end

135
00:07:35,480 --> 00:07:38,520
Speaker 2: of the third quarter. They did a great job. Now

136
00:07:38,680 --> 00:07:41,760
Speaker 2: is going to work against everybody? No, but can you

137
00:07:41,880 --> 00:07:44,160
Speaker 2: find that sweet spot of this is who we are?

138
00:07:44,800 --> 00:07:47,920
Speaker 2: These teams? Now? Golden State's looking for its identity with

139
00:07:48,040 --> 00:07:52,720
Speaker 2: Jimmy Butler, who are you? What are you? And can

140
00:07:52,760 --> 00:07:55,920
Speaker 2: you continue? They won three in a row and I

141
00:07:55,920 --> 00:08:00,239
Speaker 2: think they're all surprised at how good Jimmy Butler still is.

142
00:08:00,240 --> 00:08:05,240
Speaker 2: Is that enough? Now you're trying to figure out are

143
00:08:05,240 --> 00:08:08,120
Speaker 2: we a three point shooting team? Like what is our offense?

144
00:08:08,800 --> 00:08:11,920
Speaker 2: And having that strategy they have young players, but they're

145
00:08:11,960 --> 00:08:15,080
Speaker 2: just young players. They haven't been great players. It's still

146
00:08:15,080 --> 00:08:18,600
Speaker 2: Steph Curry, Steve Kerr, and I still think Golden State

147
00:08:18,680 --> 00:08:23,040
Speaker 2: has one of those magical runs still left in them. Now,

148
00:08:23,320 --> 00:08:26,240
Speaker 2: how long can that last in the playoffs? That's really

149
00:08:26,280 --> 00:08:26,640
Speaker 2: the key.

150
00:08:27,560 --> 00:08:27,800
Speaker 4: You know.

151
00:08:27,880 --> 00:08:33,240
Speaker 2: Do we trust Oklahoma City? Okay, maybe to a certain degree, yes,

152
00:08:33,920 --> 00:08:36,800
Speaker 2: But it feels like in Houston is sneaky. I mean,

153
00:08:37,280 --> 00:08:39,280
Speaker 2: you may not watch them, you may not know them.

154
00:08:39,600 --> 00:08:43,959
Speaker 2: Houston's good, and it's these who's built for a seven

155
00:08:44,040 --> 00:08:44,760
Speaker 2: game series?

156
00:08:45,160 --> 00:08:45,280
Speaker 5: Now?

157
00:08:45,360 --> 00:08:47,840
Speaker 2: Who's built for the next seven game series? That's how

158
00:08:47,920 --> 00:08:50,640
Speaker 2: you win championships. You want to make them match up

159
00:08:50,679 --> 00:08:52,960
Speaker 2: with you. How are you with half court? Do you

160
00:08:53,000 --> 00:08:55,360
Speaker 2: play defense? All the things that you know come into

161
00:08:55,360 --> 00:08:58,720
Speaker 2: play every single year, and we get caught up in

162
00:08:58,800 --> 00:09:01,320
Speaker 2: threes in offense, all of this, and it comes down

163
00:09:01,360 --> 00:09:05,400
Speaker 2: to what matchups half court offense, half court defense. But

164
00:09:05,840 --> 00:09:09,520
Speaker 2: a long winded way of saying, we got some I

165
00:09:09,520 --> 00:09:12,600
Speaker 2: think some interest here. The Caves, the Calves are here

166
00:09:12,640 --> 00:09:17,040
Speaker 2: for the long haul. Celtics as well, thunder Nuggets. Throw

167
00:09:17,120 --> 00:09:20,199
Speaker 2: in Golden State and throw in the Lakers as well,

168
00:09:20,679 --> 00:09:24,079
Speaker 2: and you know it'll be fun. Now, the Knicks got

169
00:09:24,120 --> 00:09:26,720
Speaker 2: blown out by the Cabs, got roughed up by the

170
00:09:26,720 --> 00:09:30,400
Speaker 2: Celtics as well, and we keep waiting to see, are

171
00:09:30,440 --> 00:09:33,240
Speaker 2: you the best team of the East, second best team

172
00:09:33,280 --> 00:09:35,680
Speaker 2: in the East, third best team in the East. So

173
00:09:36,160 --> 00:09:38,880
Speaker 2: a lot of NBA that as we start to pick

174
00:09:39,000 --> 00:09:41,360
Speaker 2: up a little bit here and maybe you know, we'll

175
00:09:41,360 --> 00:09:44,480
Speaker 2: focus on that. You got the combine coming up, so

176
00:09:44,559 --> 00:09:47,520
Speaker 2: once again here comes the NFL. You had your little

177
00:09:47,559 --> 00:09:50,880
Speaker 2: window and I hope you're happy you got a little

178
00:09:50,880 --> 00:09:54,079
Speaker 2: window here hockey in NBA, and now all of a sudden,

179
00:09:54,120 --> 00:09:56,720
Speaker 2: the combines this week. Then we're gonna lead up to

180
00:09:56,760 --> 00:10:00,040
Speaker 2: the draft. There's gonna be mock drafts. There's free a

181
00:10:00,280 --> 00:10:03,280
Speaker 2: see Matthew Stafford. I mean, this is where you hold

182
00:10:03,280 --> 00:10:06,360
Speaker 2: on for dear life if you're a sport that's kind

183
00:10:06,360 --> 00:10:09,440
Speaker 2: of on the periphery. It's like, can we get just

184
00:10:09,559 --> 00:10:13,200
Speaker 2: something the fact that the NBA overshadowed the NFL during

185
00:10:13,240 --> 00:10:15,959
Speaker 2: the Super Bowl, but it took what is truly one

186
00:10:16,000 --> 00:10:19,080
Speaker 2: of the blockbuster trades of all time with Luca, but

187
00:10:19,160 --> 00:10:22,320
Speaker 2: it did it overshadowed because it was a Super Bowl

188
00:10:22,320 --> 00:10:24,680
Speaker 2: matchup that we had had before a couple of years prior,

189
00:10:25,120 --> 00:10:27,640
Speaker 2: And I don't know if everybody was all in on this,

190
00:10:27,760 --> 00:10:30,360
Speaker 2: because you may not want the Chiefs to win, but

191
00:10:30,400 --> 00:10:33,000
Speaker 2: I don't know how many people outside of Pennsylvania wanted

192
00:10:33,000 --> 00:10:35,600
Speaker 2: the Eagles to win either. It's like, hopefully it's a

193
00:10:35,600 --> 00:10:39,320
Speaker 2: good game, all right. Eight seven seven three DP show

194
00:10:39,520 --> 00:10:42,680
Speaker 2: Best and Worst of the weekend Seaton Poll. Question for

195
00:10:42,800 --> 00:10:45,360
Speaker 2: our one pole.

196
00:10:45,280 --> 00:10:49,240
Speaker 6: Question for hour one, how about more cemented legacy Wayne

197
00:10:49,240 --> 00:10:52,600
Speaker 6: Gretzky Michael Jordan, ooh.

198
00:10:51,880 --> 00:10:56,360
Speaker 7: God, it's hot, scaldy hot.

199
00:10:56,600 --> 00:10:58,400
Speaker 6: We were talking about it a little bit before the

200
00:10:58,440 --> 00:11:02,400
Speaker 6: show today, Kenny. Obviously, with Ovechkin getting very close to

201
00:11:02,440 --> 00:11:05,880
Speaker 6: passing Wayne Gretsky, Okay, but you're still nobody's going to

202
00:11:05,920 --> 00:11:10,200
Speaker 6: doubt that Wayne Gretzky is the great one, the greatest

203
00:11:10,200 --> 00:11:13,040
Speaker 6: of all time. It doesn't seem like Michael Jordan anybody's

204
00:11:13,120 --> 00:11:15,200
Speaker 6: really going to be able to pass him either in

205
00:11:15,280 --> 00:11:16,440
Speaker 6: terms of perception.

206
00:11:18,520 --> 00:11:23,280
Speaker 2: Well, we won't let them. Correct, Yes, you have, you

207
00:11:23,400 --> 00:11:28,160
Speaker 2: have Michael Jordan gatekeepers. Correct. Hey, don't you're not going in.

208
00:11:28,360 --> 00:11:31,600
Speaker 2: Don't don't even think about Lebron. No, you're not going in.

209
00:11:32,240 --> 00:11:36,120
Speaker 2: Nobody's going to go in there with Wayne. If I

210
00:11:36,120 --> 00:11:39,160
Speaker 2: said how many how many Standy Cup Championships as Wayne won,

211
00:11:41,120 --> 00:11:46,800
Speaker 2: Marvin four, but we don't know what I'm saying with Mike.

212
00:11:47,200 --> 00:11:51,679
Speaker 2: Mike Hey won six. Wayne was you know, Edmonton had

213
00:11:51,720 --> 00:11:54,440
Speaker 2: one of the greatest teams of all time, like Hall

214
00:11:54,480 --> 00:11:57,080
Speaker 2: of Famers talent, and then he got traded to the

215
00:11:57,200 --> 00:12:01,120
Speaker 2: LA Kings and really changed hockey. You want to talk

216
00:12:01,120 --> 00:12:05,640
Speaker 2: about somebody who changed the game, he did. He helped

217
00:12:05,840 --> 00:12:10,040
Speaker 2: expand it in the United States, Southern states where you

218
00:12:10,080 --> 00:12:14,360
Speaker 2: would go hockey, but they embraced it because everybody wanted it.

219
00:12:14,480 --> 00:12:17,520
Speaker 2: It's it's very similar to what Caitlin Clark is doing

220
00:12:17,520 --> 00:12:21,480
Speaker 2: in the WNBA. You're starting to see a Boston once

221
00:12:21,559 --> 00:12:25,200
Speaker 2: won Partly you know, everybody's kind of going, hey, we

222
00:12:25,240 --> 00:12:29,480
Speaker 2: want one of those, you know, the Bay Area. Now

223
00:12:29,520 --> 00:12:33,439
Speaker 2: you're starting to see that Wayne did that with hockey.

224
00:12:33,720 --> 00:12:36,520
Speaker 2: We love basketball no matter where it is, and women's

225
00:12:36,600 --> 00:12:40,720
Speaker 2: basketball still rates well when they're big games. But hockey,

226
00:12:41,280 --> 00:12:44,720
Speaker 2: I mean, that's that's bringing in Canada's sport here and

227
00:12:45,080 --> 00:12:47,600
Speaker 2: all of a sudden, we want to see Wayne Gretzky

228
00:12:47,640 --> 00:12:51,360
Speaker 2: play for the LA Kings. It's pretty monumental when it happened,

229
00:12:51,360 --> 00:12:54,320
Speaker 2: but you're seeing that with Caitlin Clark with expansion as well.

230
00:12:54,400 --> 00:12:57,160
Speaker 2: So Wayne O doing that. I mean, Mike didn't change

231
00:12:57,160 --> 00:13:03,439
Speaker 2: the NBA. Think he changed marketing, the shoe deals, but worldwide.

232
00:13:04,040 --> 00:13:08,120
Speaker 2: You know, Mike had a large imprint on the game,

233
00:13:08,920 --> 00:13:12,720
Speaker 2: like Steph Curry changed the game, probably more than Michael

234
00:13:12,720 --> 00:13:16,880
Speaker 2: did from a playing perspective. That this is what Steph did, Like,

235
00:13:16,920 --> 00:13:20,240
Speaker 2: we can't be Mike, but you can think you can

236
00:13:20,280 --> 00:13:22,440
Speaker 2: be Steph. So there's a difference. Even when you watch

237
00:13:22,480 --> 00:13:25,080
Speaker 2: Wayne play, you go, how does he get away with that?

238
00:13:25,640 --> 00:13:27,920
Speaker 2: And if you ever stand next to him, you're like, damn, dude,

239
00:13:27,920 --> 00:13:31,839
Speaker 2: you're the great one. But he did change the game.

240
00:13:34,200 --> 00:13:36,160
Speaker 2: Mike did to a certain degree, but I think his

241
00:13:36,360 --> 00:13:39,360
Speaker 2: is more global marketing. Steph changed the game from a

242
00:13:39,480 --> 00:13:42,240
Speaker 2: playing perspective. What else do you have, Seeton.

243
00:13:42,320 --> 00:13:45,480
Speaker 6: Yeah, you're still never going to convince anyone that Michael

244
00:13:45,520 --> 00:13:49,120
Speaker 6: wouldn't have won somehow twenty championships in a row if

245
00:13:49,120 --> 00:13:49,720
Speaker 6: he wanted to.

246
00:13:50,640 --> 00:13:52,520
Speaker 2: If you didn't play baseball, you would have won eight

247
00:13:52,559 --> 00:13:55,679
Speaker 2: in a row. Trust me. Okay, he didn't win those

248
00:13:55,720 --> 00:13:57,600
Speaker 2: yuses because he didn't want to. Actually, trust you, I

249
00:13:57,600 --> 00:13:59,840
Speaker 2: don't think we look at Wayne the way we do

250
00:14:00,120 --> 00:14:05,200
Speaker 2: Michael Michaels was about championships because statistically there were going

251
00:14:05,240 --> 00:14:08,880
Speaker 2: to be better players, But as far as winning championships,

252
00:14:08,960 --> 00:14:12,240
Speaker 2: he was six. And oh, Wayne, it was he's the

253
00:14:12,240 --> 00:14:14,839
Speaker 2: greatest scorer. He's the great one. But I don't think

254
00:14:14,880 --> 00:14:18,200
Speaker 2: we go, well, how many titles did he have compared

255
00:14:18,240 --> 00:14:21,960
Speaker 2: to Lemieux or Messier or Gordi, We don't do that

256
00:14:22,920 --> 00:14:26,800
Speaker 2: Wayna was just different and we had not seen somebody

257
00:14:27,080 --> 00:14:29,800
Speaker 2: who had that ability to score and be as if

258
00:14:29,920 --> 00:14:33,480
Speaker 2: John Stockton led the NBA in scoring, he was the

259
00:14:33,520 --> 00:14:37,880
Speaker 2: all time leading scorer. That's what Wayne is. Wayne is

260
00:14:37,920 --> 00:14:41,080
Speaker 2: the all time assist leader and the all time goal scorer.

261
00:14:41,400 --> 00:14:44,480
Speaker 7: Yeah, pulling Oveska needs thirteen goals to pass Gretzky. It

262
00:14:44,520 --> 00:14:47,160
Speaker 7: all happen in the next few weeks. He needs fourteen

263
00:14:47,240 --> 00:14:48,920
Speaker 7: hundred more assists to pass Gretzky.

264
00:14:48,960 --> 00:14:50,720
Speaker 2: With assistance, I don't think he's going to get it.

265
00:14:51,800 --> 00:14:56,400
Speaker 2: I don't think so. You got a way of it,

266
00:14:56,520 --> 00:14:57,440
Speaker 2: v Patient, Yeah, I know.

267
00:14:58,120 --> 00:15:01,560
Speaker 7: Gretzky has two thousand, eight hundred and fifty seven points.

268
00:15:01,800 --> 00:15:05,280
Speaker 7: In second place is Yager at nineteen hundred and Messy

269
00:15:05,280 --> 00:15:07,040
Speaker 7: at nineteen hundred. He's a thousand clear.

270
00:15:07,560 --> 00:15:12,080
Speaker 2: Yeah, but once again, fact just let that sink in.

271
00:15:12,640 --> 00:15:16,400
Speaker 2: John Stockton would be the all time leading scorer and

272
00:15:16,480 --> 00:15:20,080
Speaker 2: the all time assist guy at his size. By the way,

273
00:15:21,160 --> 00:15:24,200
Speaker 2: crazy all right, just getting started. Great to be back.

274
00:15:24,360 --> 00:15:26,840

310
00:16:55,720 --> 00:16:59,600
Speaker 2: have kids, particularly little ones, and then you're like, hey,

311
00:16:59,680 --> 00:17:02,400
Speaker 2: I'm on vacation, But it takes you a little while

312
00:17:02,400 --> 00:17:06,159
Speaker 2: to ease into vacation, whereas does it take longer to

313
00:17:06,240 --> 00:17:08,679
Speaker 2: ease back into work? I have a hard time with

314
00:17:08,760 --> 00:17:13,119
Speaker 2: vacation because and certainly with social media now you can read,

315
00:17:13,400 --> 00:17:15,879
Speaker 2: you catch up on everything, and then there are times

316
00:17:15,920 --> 00:17:18,000
Speaker 2: when you go, oh, I wish we were still on

317
00:17:18,040 --> 00:17:21,760
Speaker 2: the radio doing this. It's always there. It's a constant,

318
00:17:22,280 --> 00:17:25,280
Speaker 2: you know. But with work, you know, you're back into it,

319
00:17:25,400 --> 00:17:27,760
Speaker 2: like right away. Vacation is a little bit harder where

320
00:17:27,800 --> 00:17:30,720
Speaker 2: you go because my wife would always say, hey, did

321
00:17:30,720 --> 00:17:33,560
Speaker 2: you have a good time on vacation? Yeah, oh okay,

322
00:17:33,600 --> 00:17:36,400
Speaker 2: it didn't seem like it, and being like, I think

323
00:17:36,440 --> 00:17:39,600
Speaker 2: I did. You know, Sometimes after the fact, I'll say

324
00:17:39,600 --> 00:17:41,280
Speaker 2: to my wife or my kids, man, I had a

325
00:17:41,280 --> 00:17:44,520
Speaker 2: great time on that vacation. They're like you did, Like, yeah,

326
00:17:44,560 --> 00:17:47,919
Speaker 2: I did. I had a great time. I don't know

327
00:17:47,960 --> 00:17:49,960
Speaker 2: what you know we did on that vacation, but I

328
00:17:49,960 --> 00:17:52,840
Speaker 2: had a great time, all right. Eight seven seven three

329
00:17:52,920 --> 00:17:55,879
Speaker 2: DP show email address dpat dan Patrick dot com, Twitter

330
00:17:55,920 --> 00:17:58,040
Speaker 2: handle a DP show. So Seeton, are we going to

331
00:17:58,119 --> 00:18:00,640
Speaker 2: settle on that poll? Quint? You're gonna go? Would they?

332
00:18:00,880 --> 00:18:03,400
Speaker 2: That's a banger right out of the gate with Gretzky

333
00:18:03,480 --> 00:18:07,080
Speaker 2: and Jordan clicks.

334
00:18:05,640 --> 00:18:09,560
Speaker 6: Like, yeah, well I have another one. Here are the

335
00:18:09,600 --> 00:18:15,240
Speaker 6: Spurs tanking for Cooper flag? That's ridiculous or obviously they can't.

336
00:18:15,800 --> 00:18:20,320
Speaker 6: They can't win the lottery again they can, but that's

337
00:18:20,560 --> 00:18:22,120
Speaker 6: they can and I believe they will.

338
00:18:22,200 --> 00:18:29,000
Speaker 2: Oh my gosh, Okay, I get the conspiracy theory, but

339
00:18:29,040 --> 00:18:32,240
Speaker 2: I don't know where they Where are they as far

340
00:18:32,280 --> 00:18:35,120
Speaker 2: as worst teams in ping pong balls and.

341
00:18:34,880 --> 00:18:38,639
Speaker 6: All of that down, they're certainly the lower third of

342
00:18:38,680 --> 00:18:40,440
Speaker 6: the West. Okay, no doubt about that.

343
00:18:40,560 --> 00:18:44,800
Speaker 2: Oh my god, yeah if they Okay, has anybody given

344
00:18:44,880 --> 00:18:47,920
Speaker 2: this any thought? As crazy as this is going to sound,

345
00:18:48,000 --> 00:18:52,160
Speaker 2: what if Cooper flag goes? I can must stand another year.

346
00:18:54,119 --> 00:18:58,520
Speaker 2: I'm making, you know, probably three four million, five million

347
00:18:58,800 --> 00:19:03,960
Speaker 2: whatever face the college basketball aside from Danny Hurley. But

348
00:19:05,000 --> 00:19:11,359
Speaker 2: although that might be Rick Patino. Now I'm sorry, Marvin sorry, yeh.

349
00:19:11,280 --> 00:19:13,640
Speaker 9: Mar Rick Patina is the national coach of the Year.

350
00:19:14,160 --> 00:19:15,040
Speaker 2: He's done a great job.

351
00:19:15,080 --> 00:19:17,560
Speaker 9: I don't even think there's really a second place. Everybody

352
00:19:17,600 --> 00:19:19,680
Speaker 9: else the second place. What he's done with Saint John's

353
00:19:19,800 --> 00:19:23,480
Speaker 9: is incredible. They haven't been good my entire adult life.

354
00:19:24,640 --> 00:19:28,520
Speaker 9: Maybe the last time they were a real threat. I'll wait,

355
00:19:28,640 --> 00:19:31,679
Speaker 9: yeah see yeah, So what he's done is incredible.

356
00:19:32,840 --> 00:19:36,960
Speaker 2: Patino has If a coach can have nine lives, Rick

357
00:19:37,000 --> 00:19:39,960
Speaker 2: Patino has had nine lives. He wins everywhere he goes.

358
00:19:41,119 --> 00:19:45,000
Speaker 2: He's one of the great coaches, not basketball, great coaches

359
00:19:45,040 --> 00:19:48,520
Speaker 2: of all time and you're seeing this with Saint John's

360
00:19:48,840 --> 00:19:53,440
Speaker 2: beating Connecticut over the weekend. All right, so that would

361
00:19:53,520 --> 00:19:59,840
Speaker 2: be the Jordan Gretzky Yeah, okay, yeah, the most greatest

362
00:20:00,080 --> 00:20:05,720
Speaker 2: of all time. Whose legacy yeah more cemented. I would

363
00:20:05,800 --> 00:20:10,840
Speaker 2: say Jordan because the sport is more popular for now. Yeah,

364
00:20:11,040 --> 00:20:13,280
Speaker 2: but in a hundred years from now, do we look

365
00:20:13,320 --> 00:20:17,160
Speaker 2: back on Wayne Gretzky's numbers and go like Babe Ruth.

366
00:20:17,800 --> 00:20:21,840
Speaker 2: Although Babe Bruce's numbers have been surpassed, Gretzky's, you know,

367
00:20:21,960 --> 00:20:30,120
Speaker 2: points total will never be surpassed, never, but goal scoring

368
00:20:30,119 --> 00:20:33,240
Speaker 2: Ovechkin and we thought that that was you know, Mount

369
00:20:33,280 --> 00:20:35,920
Speaker 2: rushmore of you know scoring, that was not going to

370
00:20:35,960 --> 00:20:40,560
Speaker 2: be surpassed. But Ovechkin has been incredible. Although you might

371
00:20:40,600 --> 00:20:44,760
Speaker 2: get that argument who's been better Sidney Crosby or Alex Ovechkin,

372
00:20:44,800 --> 00:20:48,440
Speaker 2: And people probably would, you know, take Sidney Crosby as

373
00:20:48,480 --> 00:20:52,040
Speaker 2: a better player, very close in total points, their careers

374
00:20:52,080 --> 00:20:56,399
Speaker 2: have paralleled each other. You know, Wayne didn't really have

375
00:20:56,480 --> 00:20:59,760
Speaker 2: a rival. I mean you had the Islanders, and then

376
00:20:59,840 --> 00:21:05,680
Speaker 2: Edington came in and uh Messier coffee Grand feour h

377
00:21:06,320 --> 00:21:10,159
Speaker 2: Glenn's uh say there, you know, we we were hoping

378
00:21:10,240 --> 00:21:13,440
Speaker 2: Lemieux was going to be there. Uh, you know, health reasons.

379
00:21:13,600 --> 00:21:15,399
Speaker 2: I think Lemieux could have been the greatest player of

380
00:21:15,400 --> 00:21:19,199
Speaker 2: all time. I see a guy six ' four do

381
00:21:19,320 --> 00:21:23,080
Speaker 2: what he did and the grace I thought he I

382
00:21:23,080 --> 00:21:24,879
Speaker 2: thought he was destined to be the greatest player I

383
00:21:24,920 --> 00:21:27,600
Speaker 2: ever saw. Uh did get see Gordy Howe at the

384
00:21:27,680 --> 00:21:31,200
Speaker 2: end of his career, which was amazing? Got Roniic Finnin

385
00:21:31,320 --> 00:21:35,000
Speaker 2: all there just a goal score the g Yeah, I mean,

386
00:21:35,119 --> 00:21:38,360
Speaker 2: you know, Hall of Famer. Yeah. Uh, Messier, you can

387
00:21:38,400 --> 00:21:40,879
Speaker 2: make a case greatest player of all time because he

388
00:21:40,920 --> 00:21:43,360
Speaker 2: played both ways. I mean he was he did everything

389
00:21:43,400 --> 00:21:46,800
Speaker 2: for you, great leader as well. But you know, I

390
00:21:46,800 --> 00:21:48,679
Speaker 2: don't want to get I want to stay in my

391
00:21:48,800 --> 00:21:53,880
Speaker 2: lane here. But just from what from what I witnessed, uh,

392
00:21:54,040 --> 00:21:55,960
Speaker 2: certainly to be able to see Wayne win a couple

393
00:21:55,960 --> 00:22:01,040
Speaker 2: of Stanley Cups. Uh so yeah, it's fun conversation, Yes,

394
00:22:01,160 --> 00:22:02,800
Speaker 2: Marmon and basketball terms.

395
00:22:02,880 --> 00:22:06,240
Speaker 9: Was Sydney Crosby supposed to be lebron as far as

396
00:22:06,280 --> 00:22:09,320
Speaker 9: this is the next one? Was there big expectations on him?

397
00:22:09,440 --> 00:22:14,359
Speaker 2: Yeah? Okay, yeah, we didn't know about Ovechkin like you did.

398
00:22:14,920 --> 00:22:18,320
Speaker 2: But and then you didn't have the the Soviet players

399
00:22:18,320 --> 00:22:22,520
Speaker 2: didn't get to play in the four nation tournament, which

400
00:22:23,000 --> 00:22:25,720
Speaker 2: there were a lot of you know, Russian hockey players,

401
00:22:26,160 --> 00:22:28,479
Speaker 2: which I don't know how they get around that. If

402
00:22:28,560 --> 00:22:31,679
Speaker 2: they get around that, certainly where we are, you know

403
00:22:32,359 --> 00:22:37,560
Speaker 2: globally with Ukraine and Russia, they may not be playing

404
00:22:37,560 --> 00:22:40,440
Speaker 2: in the four nation but you know you missed out

405
00:22:40,480 --> 00:22:42,679
Speaker 2: on some of those players as well. Yeah, paulm that

406
00:22:42,760 --> 00:22:45,199
Speaker 2: tournament though, had everything. They had eyeballs.

407
00:22:45,200 --> 00:22:46,159
Speaker 3: It was on ESPN.

408
00:22:46,200 --> 00:22:47,080
Speaker 2: It was easy.

409
00:22:47,119 --> 00:22:49,320
Speaker 7: It wasn't sixteen nations and you had to work through it.

410
00:22:49,359 --> 00:22:51,199
Speaker 7: You got right to the final four. It's like we

411
00:22:51,240 --> 00:22:52,680
Speaker 7: got straight to the good stuff.

412
00:22:53,560 --> 00:22:56,280
Speaker 2: And there was something to play for. Obviously, you have

413
00:22:56,320 --> 00:23:00,359
Speaker 2: the dynamics between the United States and Canada and booing

414
00:23:00,400 --> 00:23:05,520
Speaker 2: the anthems bad blood, it's hockey. Then all of a sudden,

415
00:23:05,560 --> 00:23:08,000
Speaker 2: you know, they drop the gloves as they get ready

416
00:23:08,119 --> 00:23:11,880
Speaker 2: right off to the face off. Yeah. I saw where

417
00:23:12,200 --> 00:23:14,720
Speaker 2: Chris mad Dog Russo said that it felt like it

418
00:23:14,760 --> 00:23:17,199
Speaker 2: was wrestling, And I was going to say to Chris,

419
00:23:17,480 --> 00:23:19,800
Speaker 2: why don't you take one of those punches and then

420
00:23:19,800 --> 00:23:22,880
Speaker 2: you tell me if that's wrestling, that that was scripted.

421
00:23:22,920 --> 00:23:26,960
Speaker 2: They were faking it. I thought it was great because

422
00:23:27,000 --> 00:23:29,960
Speaker 2: it did Matt once again, this is what we care about.

423
00:23:30,000 --> 00:23:33,119
Speaker 2: I think as fans all care about it. If I

424
00:23:33,160 --> 00:23:36,480
Speaker 2: think you care about it, is it really important to you?

425
00:23:37,160 --> 00:23:40,359
Speaker 2: How important is this? Is it fair to compare the

426
00:23:40,480 --> 00:23:44,560
Speaker 2: NBA's All Star Game being lackluster and then you look

427
00:23:44,560 --> 00:23:49,120
Speaker 2: at the Four Nation Tournament with the NHL. Yes, because

428
00:23:49,359 --> 00:23:52,720
Speaker 2: you know, they were kind of connected as far as

429
00:23:52,760 --> 00:23:56,040
Speaker 2: the timing of them. And we keep saying, how about

430
00:23:56,040 --> 00:23:58,960
Speaker 2: the United States against the World in the NBA, and

431
00:23:59,000 --> 00:24:01,800
Speaker 2: then you had that model, you know, a different model,

432
00:24:02,240 --> 00:24:07,760
Speaker 2: but it turned out great that you played for your country.

433
00:24:08,840 --> 00:24:12,800
Speaker 2: It was important. The you know, goes into overtime. I

434
00:24:12,840 --> 00:24:15,560
Speaker 2: get had everything that you wanted it to be. Can

435
00:24:15,600 --> 00:24:18,040
Speaker 2: you do that with the NBA? Well, the NBA has

436
00:24:18,119 --> 00:24:20,040
Speaker 2: to get to this point and they have to say

437
00:24:20,040 --> 00:24:24,520
Speaker 2: the following do we need to blow this up? Can

438
00:24:24,560 --> 00:24:28,679
Speaker 2: we tweak this? Will it even matter? Are we just

439
00:24:28,800 --> 00:24:31,600
Speaker 2: destined to be somewhere in between where we're not the

440
00:24:31,640 --> 00:24:37,840
Speaker 2: Pro Bowl? Maybe we're Baseball All Star Game. I mean,

441
00:24:39,040 --> 00:24:41,480
Speaker 2: maybe that's the best you can hope for. But if

442
00:24:41,520 --> 00:24:46,200
Speaker 2: they don't care that, I don't care. I didn't watch

443
00:24:46,200 --> 00:24:50,320
Speaker 2: the All Star Game because they don't care. So I'm

444
00:24:50,520 --> 00:24:52,600
Speaker 2: I just I got to you know, I watched a

445
00:24:52,600 --> 00:24:54,639
Speaker 2: little bit of the Slam Dunk Contest. I wanted to

446
00:24:54,680 --> 00:24:57,840
Speaker 2: see if Mac mcclunk could do some different things. Okay,

447
00:24:58,680 --> 00:25:03,280
Speaker 2: he's the greatest dunker of all time on in the

448
00:25:03,680 --> 00:25:07,160
Speaker 2: dunkin contest, not in a game because he doesn't play. Yes, Mark.

449
00:25:08,040 --> 00:25:09,760
Speaker 9: The thing about the NBA All Star Game is we

450
00:25:09,760 --> 00:25:12,120
Speaker 9: don't even need to go through all these changes. If

451
00:25:12,640 --> 00:25:14,920
Speaker 9: these guys during the summer, if you watch them play

452
00:25:14,920 --> 00:25:17,639
Speaker 9: pick up basketball, that's all you want. You want them

453
00:25:17,680 --> 00:25:19,320
Speaker 9: to play pick up basketball. They know how to play

454
00:25:19,320 --> 00:25:21,680
Speaker 9: without hurting one another. You don't have to go all

455
00:25:21,720 --> 00:25:24,880
Speaker 9: out because the outcome doesn't matter. It's never mattered. It's

456
00:25:25,000 --> 00:25:28,240
Speaker 9: at least pretend or give off the illusion that you're

457
00:25:28,240 --> 00:25:31,080
Speaker 9: playing some type of defense on somebody else. So you

458
00:25:31,119 --> 00:25:32,919
Speaker 9: have to play all out like it's the NBA Finals

459
00:25:33,000 --> 00:25:35,280
Speaker 9: or anything. You put a hand up in somebody's face.

460
00:25:35,320 --> 00:25:37,400
Speaker 2: But you go back to baseball. In the All Star Game,

461
00:25:37,760 --> 00:25:40,080
Speaker 2: it mattered because it was the National League versus the

462
00:25:40,119 --> 00:25:42,680
Speaker 2: American League, and you didn't play each other. There was

463
00:25:42,720 --> 00:25:46,200
Speaker 2: no inner league play. Therefore, there was a true rivalry.

464
00:25:46,240 --> 00:25:48,919
Speaker 2: You wanted to show which league was better. Well, we

465
00:25:49,119 --> 00:25:52,639
Speaker 2: don't have that anymore. You know, with the NBA, we

466
00:25:52,680 --> 00:25:56,359
Speaker 2: don't have that anymore. If you had East versus West

467
00:25:56,960 --> 00:26:00,920
Speaker 2: and you took pride in that, maybe, but they make

468
00:26:01,000 --> 00:26:03,919
Speaker 2: so much money. All they want to do is be

469
00:26:04,000 --> 00:26:06,760
Speaker 2: named to the All Star Team and not get hurt.

470
00:26:06,960 --> 00:26:11,280
Speaker 2: I get all of that, but it feels like the

471
00:26:11,359 --> 00:26:13,680
Speaker 2: NBA keeps trying to sell us the same thing. They

472
00:26:13,720 --> 00:26:17,600
Speaker 2: just package it differently, Like, wait, I'm still getting underwear

473
00:26:17,600 --> 00:26:22,400
Speaker 2: and socks for Christmas. Yeah, but look, hey, the courts

474
00:26:22,520 --> 00:26:28,880
Speaker 2: reads going, yeah, this is great, isn't it, And you're like, no,

475
00:26:30,160 --> 00:26:32,840
Speaker 2: But I would love to see the United States versus

476
00:26:33,160 --> 00:26:35,800
Speaker 2: you know, the other countries combined. I think that would

477
00:26:35,800 --> 00:26:39,320
Speaker 2: be fun. It would be different. Now, can you convince

478
00:26:39,359 --> 00:26:43,360
Speaker 2: the Players Players Association? Also? You know, there's bonuses if

479
00:26:43,359 --> 00:26:45,119
Speaker 2: you make the All Star team. You know, there's a

480
00:26:45,119 --> 00:26:47,679
Speaker 2: lot of things to factor in. I get that. But

481
00:26:48,320 --> 00:26:52,440
Speaker 2: if college football can go from four to twelve team playoffs,

482
00:26:53,040 --> 00:26:56,199
Speaker 2: then I think the NBA can figure this out. And

483
00:26:56,240 --> 00:26:59,639
Speaker 2: by the way, college football is going to fourteen and

484
00:26:59,680 --> 00:27:03,320
Speaker 2: then to sixteen real soon, the NFL is going to

485
00:27:03,359 --> 00:27:07,439
Speaker 2: eighteen games like Okay, come on, we can figure this out.

486
00:27:07,960 --> 00:27:11,359
Speaker 2: Get some of our brightest minds on this. Hello.

487
00:27:12,240 --> 00:27:14,879
Speaker 7: Yes, like the four Nations. If college football ran the

488
00:27:14,920 --> 00:27:17,640
Speaker 7: four Nations hockey, it'd instantly be eight nations, then sixteen,

489
00:27:17,960 --> 00:27:18,960
Speaker 7: then twenty four nations.

490
00:27:19,040 --> 00:27:21,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, and then they would want a couple of extra

491
00:27:21,280 --> 00:27:23,440
Speaker 2: nations to get in there from the SEC in the

492
00:27:23,480 --> 00:27:27,840
Speaker 2: big automatic bids yeah, automatic, yes, uh, all right, we'll

493
00:27:27,880 --> 00:27:31,560
Speaker 2: get phone calls coming up. But I think the NBA

494
00:27:32,320 --> 00:27:34,200
Speaker 2: you got to get to that point where you go,

495
00:27:35,160 --> 00:27:40,280
Speaker 2: can we do this and will we care about it? Yeah? Point?

496
00:27:40,480 --> 00:27:41,080
Speaker 2: Where do you guys?

497
00:27:41,160 --> 00:27:44,240
Speaker 7: Weigh in on Mac McClung kind of being an NBA player,

498
00:27:44,400 --> 00:27:46,560
Speaker 7: so he's eligible to be in the Dunk Contest, but

499
00:27:46,640 --> 00:27:49,640
Speaker 7: then not playing again. He has played in one game

500
00:27:49,680 --> 00:27:52,160
Speaker 7: for five minutes for Orlando this year to be eligible

501
00:27:52,200 --> 00:27:53,000
Speaker 7: to be in the dun Cos.

502
00:27:53,080 --> 00:27:56,760
Speaker 2: Okay, if you said, Sabrina and Caitlin, we're going to

503
00:27:56,800 --> 00:27:59,359
Speaker 2: be in the three point shooting contest with the NBA,

504
00:27:59,480 --> 00:28:01,760
Speaker 2: they played more, but I would be fine with that.

505
00:28:01,800 --> 00:28:07,280
Speaker 2: I don't care. It's it's gimmicky, but they've made it

506
00:28:07,320 --> 00:28:10,679
Speaker 2: gimmicky because they have to. There's there's nothing else to

507
00:28:10,720 --> 00:28:15,320
Speaker 2: see I mean, look back on dunks before, you know,

508
00:28:15,440 --> 00:28:20,480
Speaker 2: when Mike and Larry Nance and uh doctor Jay. I

509
00:28:20,480 --> 00:28:24,919
Speaker 2: mean they're great dunks, but like, what are you remembering?

510
00:28:25,560 --> 00:28:29,560
Speaker 2: I'll remember Brent Berry, a white guy with his warm

511
00:28:29,640 --> 00:28:31,959
Speaker 2: up still on, leaving from the free throw line. I mean,

512
00:28:32,040 --> 00:28:35,640
Speaker 2: let's be honest here, Mac McClung. It's a white guy

513
00:28:35,640 --> 00:28:40,720
Speaker 2: who is jumping over cars. Now, there's creativity in that.

514
00:28:40,880 --> 00:28:46,720
Speaker 2: But Nate Robinson did this. But Mac, you know you

515
00:28:46,840 --> 00:28:50,040
Speaker 2: got a factor in uh, you know, the elephant in

516
00:28:50,040 --> 00:28:53,640
Speaker 2: the room here, creative. He's really good at what he does,

517
00:28:54,120 --> 00:28:57,040
Speaker 2: but not good. Isn't that amazing? You could be that

518
00:28:57,680 --> 00:29:03,640
Speaker 2: athletic and you still can't play in the NBA. Pretty amazing.

519
00:29:04,520 --> 00:29:06,080
Speaker 2: I mean, maybe he can play. I know he's got

520
00:29:06,160 --> 00:29:09,640
Speaker 2: a little bit of run in Orlando, but he doesn't.

521
00:29:09,920 --> 00:29:12,719
Speaker 2: You know, he's and he probably is gonna stop doing

522
00:29:12,760 --> 00:29:14,960
Speaker 2: the dunk contest. Oh oh no, no no.

523
00:29:15,440 --> 00:29:18,840
Speaker 7: McClung has played in five basketball games in four seasons

524
00:29:18,880 --> 00:29:19,360
Speaker 7: of NBA.

525
00:29:19,520 --> 00:29:21,240
Speaker 2: Okay, he's made one.

526
00:29:21,200 --> 00:29:23,920
Speaker 7: Hundred and thirty thousand dollars as an NBA player. He's

527
00:29:23,960 --> 00:29:25,720
Speaker 7: made three hundred and twenty five grand as a dunk

528
00:29:25,720 --> 00:29:26,800
Speaker 7: contest champion.

529
00:29:27,200 --> 00:29:32,920
Speaker 2: Static day stead of the day, stat of the day

530
00:29:33,840 --> 00:29:39,720
Speaker 2: he comes that, what stat of the day. Yeah, maybe,

531
00:29:39,720 --> 00:29:41,920
Speaker 2: on second thought, if he wants to get paid, he's

532
00:29:41,920 --> 00:29:44,000
Speaker 2: gonna have to be. But if he can bring Jahn

533
00:29:44,040 --> 00:29:47,760
Speaker 2: Morant out, that would be great. If Aaron Gordon comes

534
00:29:47,760 --> 00:29:51,280
Speaker 2: out of you know, dunk contest retirement. Okay, let's be fun.

535
00:29:51,800 --> 00:29:55,440
Speaker 2: I still think John Morant's the greatest leaper, Like that

536
00:29:55,520 --> 00:29:58,040
Speaker 2: one shot that he blocks where he goes straight up

537
00:29:58,040 --> 00:30:01,920
Speaker 2: and catches it off the glass or before it gets

538
00:30:01,920 --> 00:30:03,719
Speaker 2: to the like it's one of those where you go,

539
00:30:04,280 --> 00:30:06,880
Speaker 2: is he on a trampoline? But I don't know if

540
00:30:06,880 --> 00:30:10,560
Speaker 2: he cares about that. I don't know, like the competitive

541
00:30:10,640 --> 00:30:14,560
Speaker 2: juices that, hey, I want to be the best. I

542
00:30:14,600 --> 00:30:17,320
Speaker 2: don't know if it mattered. It used to matter. The

543
00:30:17,400 --> 00:30:20,480
Speaker 2: Dunk Contest was big, but you had Dominique in there,

544
00:30:21,040 --> 00:30:24,320
Speaker 2: you had Mike, you know, you had Blarry Nance. These

545
00:30:24,320 --> 00:30:26,280
Speaker 2: were all great dunk or doctor j Like you wanted

546
00:30:26,280 --> 00:30:29,239
Speaker 2: to be the slam Dunk Champion, and then after that,

547
00:30:29,920 --> 00:30:31,840
Speaker 2: nobody wanted to be in the slam Dunk Contest.

548
00:30:31,960 --> 00:30:35,080
Speaker 9: Yes, Mars, yeah, really, all you need is one big

549
00:30:35,120 --> 00:30:37,280
Speaker 9: star because if you look at the slam dunk contest.

550
00:30:37,280 --> 00:30:39,400
Speaker 9: Even when Mike and Dominique were in there, you don't

551
00:30:39,440 --> 00:30:41,760
Speaker 9: know the rest of those guys. Yeah, so all you

552
00:30:41,800 --> 00:30:43,720
Speaker 9: need is like maybe one big star, like a Blake

553
00:30:43,760 --> 00:30:47,280
Speaker 9: Griffin type or at least a great dunker and everybody

554
00:30:47,320 --> 00:30:49,200
Speaker 9: else in the competition and you'll be all set.

555
00:30:50,560 --> 00:30:53,160
Speaker 2: Well, you need to have guys so the really good

556
00:30:53,200 --> 00:30:55,720
Speaker 2: guys can take a breather before they have to get

557
00:30:55,760 --> 00:30:57,360
Speaker 2: back out there and dunk. So you need to have

558
00:30:57,400 --> 00:31:00,960
Speaker 2: guys who you know they do some dunke it. It's

559
00:31:01,000 --> 00:31:03,600
Speaker 2: just so Jordan can rast or Dominique can rest yes

560
00:31:03,680 --> 00:31:04,480
Speaker 2: time and also.

561
00:31:04,240 --> 00:31:06,480
Speaker 10: How far can you take it? We've seen jumping over

562
00:31:06,520 --> 00:31:08,920
Speaker 10: cars and trucks and everything. You know, is there that

563
00:31:09,000 --> 00:31:11,479
Speaker 10: much room left between that and what you can do?

564
00:31:11,560 --> 00:31:13,400
Speaker 10: As far as in Evil Knievel got we're gonna put

565
00:31:13,400 --> 00:31:15,520
Speaker 10: two cars together in three cars? When does it become

566
00:31:15,640 --> 00:31:17,520
Speaker 10: like that's not that big a deal. We've seen someone

567
00:31:17,600 --> 00:31:21,440
Speaker 10: jump over a vehicle, so, uh, is it interesting.

568
00:31:21,120 --> 00:31:23,600
Speaker 2: If you don't have a big name, still impressive to

569
00:31:23,800 --> 00:31:26,239
Speaker 2: jump over a car and dunk. His head is up

570
00:31:26,280 --> 00:31:30,800
Speaker 2: by the rim. His vertical has got to be close

571
00:31:30,840 --> 00:31:39,040
Speaker 2: to fifty. I mean, although Kenny Smith is a buzzkill. Oh,

572
00:31:39,080 --> 00:31:42,440
Speaker 2: he is a buzzkill when he does the Slam Dunk

573
00:31:42,480 --> 00:31:45,360
Speaker 2: Contest and he critiques and then it's like, oh, and

574
00:31:45,480 --> 00:31:49,800
Speaker 2: Kenny was a dunker, so he can speak from experience,

575
00:31:49,880 --> 00:31:53,040
Speaker 2: but it just feels like it's never quite good enough

576
00:31:53,040 --> 00:31:56,040
Speaker 2: for Kenny. Never quite yeah, Marv.

577
00:31:56,600 --> 00:31:58,320
Speaker 9: And there's been a couple of years, all right. So

578
00:31:58,360 --> 00:32:01,800
Speaker 9: twenty sixteen, Aaron Gordon went up against Zach Lavigne. That's

579
00:32:01,840 --> 00:32:05,160
Speaker 9: easily a top three dunk contest back and forth.

580
00:32:05,240 --> 00:32:07,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, But other than that.

581
00:32:07,360 --> 00:32:10,360
Speaker 9: Youet like Jeremy Evans when the Slam Dunk Contest. Even

582
00:32:10,400 --> 00:32:14,640
Speaker 9: before that, Kenny Skywalker name my basket from Kenny Skywalker.

583
00:32:14,800 --> 00:32:15,240
Speaker 2: I'll wait.

584
00:32:16,560 --> 00:32:19,160
Speaker 9: So it's kind of stars and then it takes a dip.

585
00:32:19,440 --> 00:32:23,200
Speaker 9: They stopped the dunk contest in nineteen ninety eight, so

586
00:32:23,320 --> 00:32:26,320
Speaker 9: this isn't a new thing. Kobe won it in ninety

587
00:32:26,320 --> 00:32:29,080
Speaker 9: seven as a rookie. There's a terrible dunk contest, and

588
00:32:29,080 --> 00:32:31,520
Speaker 9: they stopped it in nineteen ninety eight, so this isn't

589
00:32:31,520 --> 00:32:32,000
Speaker 9: a new thing.

590
00:32:32,240 --> 00:32:34,640
Speaker 2: But I think Kobe wanted to win it because Mike won.

591
00:32:34,800 --> 00:32:36,520
Speaker 2: I think Kobe was like, all right, I can do

592
00:32:36,560 --> 00:32:40,320
Speaker 2: what anything Mike does I can do it, yes, Ton.

593
00:32:40,480 --> 00:32:41,440
Speaker 2: I also wonder how.

594
00:32:41,320 --> 00:32:44,400
Speaker 10: To contract the wording are affected by like a top

595
00:32:44,480 --> 00:32:47,160
Speaker 10: line player participating in something where you can conceive it

596
00:32:47,240 --> 00:32:49,040
Speaker 10: but get hurt trying to jump over a car. I

597
00:32:49,080 --> 00:32:51,000
Speaker 10: suppose if mclung gets hurt, we'll be all right, be

598
00:32:51,040 --> 00:32:51,800
Speaker 10: able to play next one.

599
00:32:51,880 --> 00:32:57,440
Speaker 2: Well, that's on you, Like you if you decide to

600
00:32:57,520 --> 00:32:59,960
Speaker 2: jump through a ring of fire, like that's on you.

601
00:33:00,320 --> 00:33:02,160
Speaker 10: But there's still second half of the seasons to be played.

602
00:33:02,160 --> 00:33:04,000
Speaker 2: Like when these guys, well they don't jump through the

603
00:33:04,080 --> 00:33:04,960
Speaker 2: ring of fire.

604
00:33:04,840 --> 00:33:06,520
Speaker 10: How are they not owners and gyms saying, you know what,

605
00:33:06,800 --> 00:33:08,280
Speaker 10: it's cool for the league, but it's not good for

606
00:33:08,360 --> 00:33:11,240
Speaker 10: my team. If you participating in this contest and tried

607
00:33:11,320 --> 00:33:13,720
Speaker 10: jumping over a car and hurt your neck or your

608
00:33:13,800 --> 00:33:15,680
Speaker 10: knee or something, so maybe we don't do that.

609
00:33:15,680 --> 00:33:17,200
Speaker 2: Why do you? Why do you always go to that?

610
00:33:17,240 --> 00:33:19,160
Speaker 10: I think it's very important. Is that part of the

611
00:33:19,160 --> 00:33:21,000
Speaker 10: reason why some of the biggest names don't do it

612
00:33:21,160 --> 00:33:22,400
Speaker 10: because they like to do it.

613
00:33:22,440 --> 00:33:25,800
Speaker 2: They don't jump over cars. We've only had that a

614
00:33:25,840 --> 00:33:26,600
Speaker 2: couple of times.

615
00:33:26,600 --> 00:33:28,440
Speaker 10: No chance of winning unless you used to jump over

616
00:33:28,480 --> 00:33:29,400
Speaker 10: through fire or something.

617
00:33:29,520 --> 00:33:31,040
Speaker 2: I think they should jump through fire.

618
00:33:31,080 --> 00:33:32,040
Speaker 10: They shared a hoop of fire.

619
00:33:32,160 --> 00:33:34,600
Speaker 2: Yes, I tune in Ring of Fire. They play Johnny

620
00:33:34,640 --> 00:33:38,600
Speaker 2: Cash perfect I fell into something else would impress us?

621
00:33:38,920 --> 00:33:41,240
Speaker 7: Yes, Paul, So you're saying if the lane were hot coals,

622
00:33:41,320 --> 00:33:45,280
Speaker 7: you're tuning in. No, it's lava, lava like that TV show. Yes,

623
00:33:45,800 --> 00:33:48,720
Speaker 7: the floor is lava. If you'd told me five years ago,

624
00:33:48,840 --> 00:33:52,280
Speaker 7: Zion Williamson would never appear in a dunk contest because

625
00:33:52,280 --> 00:33:53,960
Speaker 7: of mostly injuries. I don't know if he was ever

626
00:33:54,040 --> 00:33:56,320
Speaker 7: thinking about it, but he had so many injuries earlier

627
00:33:56,360 --> 00:33:57,800
Speaker 7: he couldn't do it and justify it.

628
00:33:58,160 --> 00:34:01,280
Speaker 2: You have a Jamma Rant two. I'd rather see John

629
00:34:01,360 --> 00:34:06,120
Speaker 2: Morant than Zion. I mean, Zion's power. John Morant would

630
00:34:06,160 --> 00:34:09,799
Speaker 2: be different, But I don't you know, we got numb

631
00:34:09,800 --> 00:34:13,279
Speaker 2: to dunking. We're getting numb to three point shooting. Oho.

632
00:34:13,440 --> 00:34:16,759
Speaker 2: Kevin Durant said, Hey, you guys spend more time complaining

633
00:34:16,800 --> 00:34:21,440
Speaker 2: about the NBA than watching the NBA. Kevin, you answered

634
00:34:22,000 --> 00:34:26,600
Speaker 2: your own question. There there is reason to complain about

635
00:34:26,600 --> 00:34:29,680
Speaker 2: the NBA. You're right, we don't want to, but there's

636
00:34:29,800 --> 00:34:33,239
Speaker 2: reasons to. How about we take a break, play the

Speaker 13: I was watching the MAVs and the.

669
00:36:22,880 --> 00:36:25,920
Speaker 11: Doves yesterday and he got me thinking, not.

670
00:36:26,160 --> 00:36:29,440
Speaker 13: If Dan, but when Steph gets his statue, do they

671
00:36:29,480 --> 00:36:31,640
Speaker 13: go with his like the replica of his like you know,

672
00:36:32,120 --> 00:36:35,080
Speaker 13: sure shooting form from three? Or do they go with

673
00:36:35,120 --> 00:36:39,799
Speaker 13: his now iconic night night gesture because like he cemented

674
00:36:39,840 --> 00:36:41,480
Speaker 13: that with his Olympics.

675
00:36:40,920 --> 00:36:44,640
Speaker 11: Performance, and I mean people, they copy that across the landscape.

676
00:36:44,280 --> 00:36:47,040
Speaker 13: Landscape of sports. Now so interested to see what you

677
00:36:47,040 --> 00:36:51,040
Speaker 13: guys think. But the breaking news, Dan little Hert, a

678
00:36:51,080 --> 00:36:54,080
Speaker 13: restaurant in Redwood City just turned one years old. Ye

679
00:36:54,600 --> 00:36:58,520
Speaker 13: we've already we've already started corresponding with all the happenings

680
00:36:58,520 --> 00:37:00,400
Speaker 13: that will come with Super Bowl sixty here in San

681
00:37:00,440 --> 00:37:03,839
Speaker 13: Francisco and the imitation to come out and hold court

682
00:37:03,880 --> 00:37:07,120
Speaker 13: out here. Dan on the Silicon Valley Riviera is still

683
00:37:07,160 --> 00:37:07,720
Speaker 13: on the board.

684
00:37:07,800 --> 00:37:10,120
Speaker 11: Plenty of room for you guys. You can live it

685
00:37:10,200 --> 00:37:12,560
Speaker 11: up on the marina, be close to the super.

686
00:37:12,320 --> 00:37:15,239
Speaker 13: Bowl venue, and so maybe the big german can come

687
00:37:15,239 --> 00:37:17,400
Speaker 13: out and scope out the landscape and see what do

688
00:37:17,400 --> 00:37:18,359
Speaker 13: you guys all think about it?

689
00:37:18,440 --> 00:37:21,040
Speaker 2: Well, thank you, Buddha. I think if when they have

690
00:37:21,120 --> 00:37:23,760
Speaker 2: Steph Curry statue, I want to see his shooting form.

691
00:37:24,960 --> 00:37:26,719
Speaker 2: That's what I want to see. I don't want the

692
00:37:26,800 --> 00:37:30,160
Speaker 2: night night. I want the shooting form because that, to me,

693
00:37:30,960 --> 00:37:34,640
Speaker 2: it's just classic. That's how you shoot. Right there. You

694
00:37:34,640 --> 00:37:36,840
Speaker 2: can bring your kids over. Hey, we're going on a

695
00:37:37,480 --> 00:37:40,080
Speaker 2: school trip. Where are we going. We're going to go

696
00:37:40,280 --> 00:37:44,000
Speaker 2: and look at somebody's shooting form right there. That's how

697
00:37:44,000 --> 00:37:47,920
Speaker 2: you shoot everything perfect. Yeah, Paull, So his statue, he's

698
00:37:48,000 --> 00:37:50,040
Speaker 2: got to be kind of in the air. Yeah, is

699
00:37:50,040 --> 00:37:52,040
Speaker 2: the ball gone or is it still in his hands?

700
00:37:53,400 --> 00:37:55,160
Speaker 2: Because if the ball's gone, they got to hover that

701
00:37:55,239 --> 00:37:55,640
Speaker 2: as well.

702
00:37:56,280 --> 00:37:59,880
Speaker 7: How are they doing that.

703
00:37:58,360 --> 00:38:00,400
Speaker 2: That ball is never in his hands that when he

704
00:38:00,400 --> 00:38:03,759
Speaker 2: gets ready to shoot, right, I don't know. Maybe you

705
00:38:03,760 --> 00:38:06,840
Speaker 2: can make a statue where the ball just moves a

706
00:38:06,920 --> 00:38:10,600
Speaker 2: little bit like slightly going out of his hand, the

707
00:38:10,680 --> 00:38:12,200
Speaker 2: release like a water fountain.

708
00:38:12,360 --> 00:38:15,319
Speaker 7: Yeah, petrol just flying out of his hands and he's

709
00:38:15,320 --> 00:38:18,040
Speaker 7: got to be up about ten twelve inches a lift.

710
00:38:18,200 --> 00:38:19,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, and the follow through.

711
00:38:20,000 --> 00:38:24,160
Speaker 10: Mouthpiece in your mouth kind of which is, what do

712
00:38:24,200 --> 00:38:25,040
Speaker 10: you do with the mouthpeas?

713
00:38:25,160 --> 00:38:26,040
Speaker 2: Damn are you old?

714
00:38:27,520 --> 00:38:29,560
Speaker 10: You are partially out of his mouth.

715
00:38:30,120 --> 00:38:31,960
Speaker 6: Yeah, that's actually an insult to old people.

716
00:38:32,160 --> 00:38:37,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, whoa to us old people. Gus in La Hi, Gus.

717
00:38:39,800 --> 00:38:42,279
Speaker 5: Good morning, mister Patchers. Hope you're in the boys in

718
00:38:42,360 --> 00:38:45,759
Speaker 5: Georgia week off. Good to have you boys back. All right,

719
00:38:45,800 --> 00:38:48,640
Speaker 5: let's get into the best of the weekend, my Lakers.

720
00:38:49,120 --> 00:38:51,359
Speaker 5: I told Tyler, I'm sitting in front of my TV

721
00:38:51,440 --> 00:38:53,800
Speaker 5: on Saturday night and just like say, like a little prayer.

722
00:38:53,800 --> 00:38:56,759
Speaker 5: I'm like, just don't get blown out. Please, don't get

723
00:38:56,800 --> 00:38:59,839
Speaker 5: blown out. I like can't deal with it. And then

724
00:39:00,120 --> 00:39:03,080
Speaker 5: them to everyone's surprised, we go in there and smack

725
00:39:03,160 --> 00:39:06,720
Speaker 5: the hell out of a fully healthy roster Denver Nugget squad.

726
00:39:07,400 --> 00:39:09,120
Speaker 5: I'm not I'm not throwing.

727
00:39:08,840 --> 00:39:12,440
Speaker 14: The parade down to the pulvida yet, but it was

728
00:39:12,600 --> 00:39:16,200
Speaker 14: a very pleasant surprise to see it. Question I have

729
00:39:17,120 --> 00:39:20,640
Speaker 14: is at what point I'm not saying that they're gonna,

730
00:39:20,640 --> 00:39:23,400
Speaker 14: you know, win the championship. But at what point does

731
00:39:23,800 --> 00:39:26,560
Speaker 14: the national media turned to JJ Redick and say, hey,

732
00:39:27,000 --> 00:39:30,239
Speaker 14: we got you wrong, we had you figured wrong. I

733
00:39:30,280 --> 00:39:32,759
Speaker 14: get that he's got Luke and Lebron, but at what

734
00:39:32,880 --> 00:39:35,520
Speaker 14: point do we there's the next one. Media go okay,

735
00:39:35,719 --> 00:39:37,399
Speaker 14: it looks like you did know what you were doing.

736
00:39:37,560 --> 00:39:45,240
Speaker 2: Gus, relax, just just get away. How about how about

737
00:39:45,239 --> 00:39:46,560
Speaker 2: a playoff series win?

738
00:39:49,080 --> 00:39:52,680
Speaker 14: Yes, yes, plaster is with but Darvin Ham never smacked

739
00:39:52,680 --> 00:39:54,040
Speaker 14: around the nugget by twenty three.

740
00:39:55,320 --> 00:39:58,080
Speaker 2: Okay, if you're JJ Reddick, you shouldn't be compared to

741
00:39:58,200 --> 00:40:01,920
Speaker 2: Darvin Ham. I give you a better than Darvinham. If

742
00:40:01,920 --> 00:40:04,680
Speaker 2: you're JJ Reddick, you want to be compared to some

743
00:40:04,840 --> 00:40:07,960
Speaker 2: of the great coaches. But thank you, guys, Gus already

744
00:40:08,160 --> 00:40:11,480
Speaker 2: starting the parade route. Yes, Marvin, yeah, we stop the comparisons.

745
00:40:11,520 --> 00:40:17,560
Speaker 2: When JJ Reddick called the time out, wow wow, Okay,

746
00:40:17,960 --> 00:40:22,040
Speaker 2: Darvin Ham got fired. Okay if the job was too

747
00:40:22,080 --> 00:40:25,880
Speaker 2: big for him, JJ Reddick never had any coaching experience.

748
00:40:26,239 --> 00:40:28,440
Speaker 2: I think people were probably saying, did he get the

749
00:40:28,520 --> 00:40:31,320
Speaker 2: job because he's Lebron's fent. Well, he's a very bright mind,

750
00:40:31,960 --> 00:40:38,520
Speaker 2: very bright minded guy. We're starting to see that that rotations, timeouts, defense,

751
00:40:39,320 --> 00:40:41,520
Speaker 2: like that's what you're supposed to do. He could be

752
00:40:41,600 --> 00:40:46,160
Speaker 2: the West Coast version of Eric Spolstra. Well, but yeah,

753
00:40:46,200 --> 00:40:49,239
Speaker 2: there's a lot of pressure on him. And I thought

754
00:40:49,360 --> 00:40:52,040
Speaker 2: that if you're going on what they did in Denver

755
00:40:52,160 --> 00:40:54,680
Speaker 2: where they don't win and they played defense and they

756
00:40:54,719 --> 00:40:58,960
Speaker 2: had a strategy against Joker, that's all I'm saying. They

757
00:40:59,040 --> 00:41:03,000
Speaker 2: can compete for a championship. I truly believe that they can.

758
00:41:04,000 --> 00:41:06,960
Speaker 2: But Lebron's got to stay healthy. You know, what's Luca's

759
00:41:07,000 --> 00:41:07,880
Speaker 2: condition going to be?

760
00:41:08,120 --> 00:41:08,160
Speaker 5: Like?

761
00:41:08,960 --> 00:41:13,000
Speaker 2: Are you continuing to get contributions from Austin Reeves? Reeves

762
00:41:13,080 --> 00:41:16,720
Speaker 2: has been great, but you know, the West is not easy.

763
00:41:18,440 --> 00:41:20,879
Speaker 2: Where's the East? Feels like it's a little top heavy.

764
00:41:20,960 --> 00:41:23,080
Speaker 2: The West. You've got six teams that might be able

765
00:41:23,080 --> 00:41:27,239
Speaker 2: to win it all. But JJ Reddick has done a

766
00:41:27,480 --> 00:41:31,239
Speaker 2: very good job so far. If he bowls out in

767
00:41:31,239 --> 00:41:32,400
Speaker 2: the first round, are we going to go?
