And 20 00:01:05,680 --> 00:01:08,360 Speaker 2: I've had to recommit to a couple of leagues this 21 00:01:08,440 --> 00:01:14,200 Speaker 2: week at buyer Grams on Instagram, at buyer Talk on TikTok. 22 00:01:14,280 --> 00:01:16,479 Speaker 2: He made dance this week. You just don't know. It's 23 00:01:16,560 --> 00:01:16,960 Speaker 2: dam bayro. 24 00:01:17,400 --> 00:01:17,800 Speaker 1: We do know. 25 00:01:18,080 --> 00:01:20,840 Speaker 3: I'm doing well? Hello, how are you? There's gonna be 26 00:01:21,080 --> 00:01:25,399 Speaker 3: no dancing, no dancing whatsoever. My Kentucky Derby favorite was 27 00:01:25,440 --> 00:01:29,679 Speaker 3: scratched on Saturday, so Forte the favorite. The other reason 28 00:01:29,720 --> 00:01:31,920 Speaker 3: I picked the favorite in Forte was because of the 29 00:01:31,959 --> 00:01:35,759 Speaker 3: Breeders Cup last November. I was in Lexington and won 30 00:01:35,840 --> 00:01:40,039 Speaker 3: a little little cash onto Forte and figured why not 31 00:01:40,280 --> 00:01:45,000 Speaker 3: double down, and instead the favorite ends up scratching. But 32 00:01:45,800 --> 00:01:51,640 Speaker 3: nothing like the Kentucky Derby leading into the Lakers Warriors, 33 00:01:52,080 --> 00:01:55,160 Speaker 3: where the Lakers just end up basically lapping Golden State. 34 00:01:55,240 --> 00:01:57,720 Speaker 3: So the exact opposite of what we had at Churchill 35 00:01:57,800 --> 00:02:00,520 Speaker 3: Downs occurred at Crypto on Saturday. 36 00:02:00,600 --> 00:02:02,720 Speaker 2: Man, Now let's start well, I mean we could tie 37 00:02:02,720 --> 00:02:05,800 Speaker 2: them together very easily by the fact that the running 38 00:02:05,880 --> 00:02:10,280 Speaker 2: of emotions just really high. For those that haven't seen 39 00:02:10,440 --> 00:02:15,799 Speaker 2: a gut wrenching, gut wrenching video interview with the owner 40 00:02:17,320 --> 00:02:22,360 Speaker 2: of Forte in the area after it was announced that 41 00:02:22,480 --> 00:02:26,600 Speaker 2: he was scratched. Like talking about principles you know, the 42 00:02:26,639 --> 00:02:30,359 Speaker 2: family members all being up in years, you know, late seventies, 43 00:02:30,480 --> 00:02:34,040 Speaker 2: eighty years old, and this being you know, because you 44 00:02:34,120 --> 00:02:36,240 Speaker 2: only get to run it once, yes, right, right, there's 45 00:02:36,400 --> 00:02:39,800 Speaker 2: restrictions on this. So it's like, all right, we thought 46 00:02:39,840 --> 00:02:42,000 Speaker 2: we had the perfect run and if we had maybe 47 00:02:42,080 --> 00:02:45,280 Speaker 2: another forty eight hours because if a bruise might have 48 00:02:45,360 --> 00:02:48,160 Speaker 2: been able to go. But the air on the side 49 00:02:48,160 --> 00:02:51,120 Speaker 2: of caution and given what had gone on at Churchill 50 00:02:51,160 --> 00:02:54,440 Speaker 2: Downs over the week plus Brior, Yes, a lot of incidences, 51 00:02:54,520 --> 00:02:59,200 Speaker 2: a lot of negativity trainers suspended, a number of deaths. 52 00:02:59,280 --> 00:03:02,320 Speaker 2: I think it's up to seven in the last week 53 00:03:02,560 --> 00:03:04,680 Speaker 2: that you know you're gonna err on the side of 54 00:03:04,720 --> 00:03:07,760 Speaker 2: caution there, and but just the emotion of it, and 55 00:03:07,800 --> 00:03:11,760 Speaker 2: then that carries into the lebron James fest. His son 56 00:03:11,800 --> 00:03:15,280 Speaker 2: commits to USC and you can see the pride and 57 00:03:15,600 --> 00:03:18,880 Speaker 2: everything that went into his comments about his son who 58 00:03:19,000 --> 00:03:21,359 Speaker 2: was court side and everything. We'll get into to Bronny 59 00:03:21,480 --> 00:03:25,200 Speaker 2: James a little bit later on, but just that it's 60 00:03:25,280 --> 00:03:27,840 Speaker 2: the thing that we weave together all the time. And 61 00:03:28,240 --> 00:03:31,680 Speaker 2: I've done the Sermon from the Mount nine billion times 62 00:03:31,680 --> 00:03:34,040 Speaker 2: here on the airwaves, Dan, but like that's what brings 63 00:03:34,120 --> 00:03:36,320 Speaker 2: us all back together. You know, we may do some 64 00:03:36,400 --> 00:03:38,960 Speaker 2: hate watching the maybe players and teams you don't like. 65 00:03:39,520 --> 00:03:43,080 Speaker 2: Certainly when the Lakers and Warriors get together, I'm sure 66 00:03:43,080 --> 00:03:45,560 Speaker 2: I can find if I had twenty people in a room, 67 00:03:45,880 --> 00:03:47,920 Speaker 2: you know, like Draymond, you go over there, All right, 68 00:03:47,920 --> 00:03:50,400 Speaker 2: there's three of you over there. You're tired of Lebron, 69 00:03:50,480 --> 00:03:52,520 Speaker 2: Go over there. You on a d to just be 70 00:03:52,720 --> 00:03:55,760 Speaker 2: this ad every game you're in the middle and just 71 00:03:55,800 --> 00:03:58,400 Speaker 2: go from there. Like we can pick our sides. But 72 00:03:58,440 --> 00:04:01,400 Speaker 2: in the end, it comes back together because the competition, 73 00:04:01,600 --> 00:04:04,720 Speaker 2: the emotion, and that adrenaline brings us all together. 74 00:04:04,800 --> 00:04:08,720 Speaker 3: There is something to the family aspect as well, because 75 00:04:09,040 --> 00:04:12,440 Speaker 3: I do think that we get we get extremely jaded 76 00:04:12,480 --> 00:04:15,839 Speaker 3: when it comes to that. You take just take fortes 77 00:04:16,520 --> 00:04:20,039 Speaker 3: last six months or whatever it's been since November. The 78 00:04:20,480 --> 00:04:24,159 Speaker 3: fact is is as soon as that horse crossed the 79 00:04:24,160 --> 00:04:28,359 Speaker 3: finish line at Keenland last fall, it was considered the 80 00:04:28,440 --> 00:04:31,000 Speaker 3: Kentucky Derby favorite. So you have six months and now 81 00:04:31,000 --> 00:04:33,880 Speaker 3: all of a sudden, you know, hours before you're supposed 82 00:04:33,920 --> 00:04:37,080 Speaker 3: to start, that dream comes to a you know, a 83 00:04:37,520 --> 00:04:41,960 Speaker 3: shattering end. It's I don't even want to trivialize it 84 00:04:42,080 --> 00:04:46,400 Speaker 3: or minimum, you know, minimize it, Mike by drawing another comparison, 85 00:04:46,440 --> 00:04:48,880 Speaker 3: I was thinking of planning for a you know, a 86 00:04:48,920 --> 00:04:51,800 Speaker 3: family vacation, and then all of a sudden, three hours 87 00:04:51,800 --> 00:04:54,839 Speaker 3: before you're supposed to leave, you know, something happens and 88 00:04:54,920 --> 00:04:58,240 Speaker 3: it falls through. Like there's just much more, much more 89 00:04:58,279 --> 00:05:03,160 Speaker 3: at stake. But I also think that that yesterday is 90 00:05:03,160 --> 00:05:08,279 Speaker 3: is also that launch point where there's the launch point, 91 00:05:08,279 --> 00:05:11,960 Speaker 3: the summer the launch point too. I saw a lot 92 00:05:12,000 --> 00:05:16,200 Speaker 3: of a lot of prom pictures on social media. 93 00:05:16,440 --> 00:05:19,840 Speaker 2: You could look at my running list of things I've 94 00:05:19,839 --> 00:05:21,320 Speaker 2: had to buy for my daughter. 95 00:05:21,080 --> 00:05:23,880 Speaker 3: It's so did did she have her prom? 96 00:05:24,000 --> 00:05:25,080 Speaker 2: Was still coming up? 97 00:05:25,400 --> 00:05:25,800 Speaker 3: Coming up? 98 00:05:26,000 --> 00:05:28,880 Speaker 2: Still more expenses and ways to turn dad's pocket. 99 00:05:28,600 --> 00:05:31,240 Speaker 3: Out like this is like, so once Prom's over, it's 100 00:05:31,279 --> 00:05:33,360 Speaker 3: basically then a sprint to the finish line, to the 101 00:05:33,440 --> 00:05:36,320 Speaker 3: end of the school year. I know where I'm from. 102 00:05:36,600 --> 00:05:44,279 Speaker 3: Fishing season opened the first Saturday, people going out. There's 103 00:05:44,640 --> 00:05:47,479 Speaker 3: so there's a lot. But with the Kentucky Derby, with 104 00:05:47,600 --> 00:05:50,919 Speaker 3: the NBA Playoffs now reaching that point, because let's be honest, 105 00:05:50,920 --> 00:05:53,599 Speaker 3: previous years we didn't care as much about the first round. 106 00:05:53,680 --> 00:05:56,200 Speaker 3: I think that the first round this year provided a 107 00:05:56,240 --> 00:05:58,800 Speaker 3: lot of drama, but it was in the conference semi 108 00:05:58,839 --> 00:06:00,600 Speaker 3: finals around this point where you kind of all the 109 00:06:00,680 --> 00:06:03,760 Speaker 3: start to you catapult, like you move forward. And I 110 00:06:03,800 --> 00:06:05,920 Speaker 3: feel that's what we got in the sporting world. I 111 00:06:06,240 --> 00:06:09,920 Speaker 3: don't know if the Warriors are still stuck in the 112 00:06:09,960 --> 00:06:12,600 Speaker 3: slot ready to be catapulted, or if they just completely 113 00:06:12,600 --> 00:06:15,640 Speaker 3: wiped out, but that's what I felt yesterday was in 114 00:06:15,720 --> 00:06:17,800 Speaker 3: terms of where we are, Like, now we're starting to 115 00:06:18,200 --> 00:06:20,720 Speaker 3: PG championship. For me, you know, as a golf fan 116 00:06:20,800 --> 00:06:22,640 Speaker 3: a couple of weeks, agoway, we'll do our US Open 117 00:06:22,640 --> 00:06:24,840 Speaker 3: stuff a little bit later in the show, but now 118 00:06:24,920 --> 00:06:28,080 Speaker 3: like you're catapulting towards the summer. And that's what That's 119 00:06:28,080 --> 00:06:30,600 Speaker 3: what I got from yesterday, in that feel of like 120 00:06:31,040 --> 00:06:34,000 Speaker 3: all right, not not that we're like turned the corner, 121 00:06:34,040 --> 00:06:37,640 Speaker 3: but there was so much spring with March Madness, the Masters, 122 00:06:37,760 --> 00:06:40,480 Speaker 3: NFL Draft, and now I think we've put that opening 123 00:06:40,560 --> 00:06:42,719 Speaker 3: day obviously, put that in the rear view mirror, and 124 00:06:42,720 --> 00:06:44,239 Speaker 3: now we kind of head towards summer. 125 00:06:44,279 --> 00:06:46,600 Speaker 2: Yeah. I mean for some folks, hope has already gone 126 00:06:46,600 --> 00:06:49,400 Speaker 2: for their baseball teams. Last week, I did this soliloquy 127 00:06:49,520 --> 00:06:52,400 Speaker 2: for the notifications on my phone from Major League Baseball. 128 00:06:52,800 --> 00:06:54,839 Speaker 2: Then I get the alloy Jimenez, you know, had to 129 00:06:54,880 --> 00:06:56,400 Speaker 2: have an app and deck, and he's out four to 130 00:06:56,440 --> 00:06:57,000 Speaker 2: six weeks. 131 00:06:57,760 --> 00:07:00,840 Speaker 3: And I picked against the White Sox all week long, 132 00:07:00,880 --> 00:07:03,320 Speaker 3: and then they take two of three against the Twins. 133 00:07:04,000 --> 00:07:07,359 Speaker 3: Rubber matches today against the Reds. Nothing personal, mic, but 134 00:07:07,560 --> 00:07:10,400 Speaker 3: just it's okay the matchups they were there. 135 00:07:10,760 --> 00:07:14,880 Speaker 2: No, it's okay. I don't take it personally. It's just business. 136 00:07:14,920 --> 00:07:17,040 Speaker 2: Just like we talked about with Lamar Jackson. In the end, 137 00:07:17,040 --> 00:07:19,560 Speaker 2: you got to take the personal side out and recognize 138 00:07:19,960 --> 00:07:22,880 Speaker 2: it's good business for him. He got paid for the Ravens. 139 00:07:23,320 --> 00:07:25,400 Speaker 2: They got done what they needed to.

Coaching dismissals a 145 00:07:44,760 --> 00:07:47,360 Speaker 2: couple days old. But since you are a Bucks guy, 146 00:07:47,400 --> 00:07:49,640 Speaker 2: we'll have to get into a little bit of bootenholder 147 00:07:49,680 --> 00:07:51,560 Speaker 2: and maybe we'll just replace some of what we talked 148 00:07:51,600 --> 00:07:54,560 Speaker 2: about last week. But let's go to the Laker game 149 00:07:54,600 --> 00:07:56,520 Speaker 2: for a few minutes as we get things started. There's 150 00:07:56,560 --> 00:08:00,360 Speaker 2: plenty of tentacles on this one, but we had another 151 00:08:00,400 --> 00:08:05,920 Speaker 2: monster game from Anthony Davis and Lebron James. It's funny watching, 152 00:08:06,080 --> 00:08:09,360 Speaker 2: you know, social media and even in the car a 153 00:08:09,400 --> 00:08:13,240 Speaker 2: little bit running errands as I did for my kids 154 00:08:13,280 --> 00:08:16,720 Speaker 2: and I had to go pharmacy and all this other stuff. 155 00:08:17,000 --> 00:08:19,520 Speaker 2: So I go to and and the game has begun, 156 00:08:20,240 --> 00:08:24,200 Speaker 2: and just listening to the Laker broadcast like he hasn't 157 00:08:24,240 --> 00:08:28,400 Speaker 2: shot yet. Lebron hasn't shot yet. It's like he's rebounding, 158 00:08:28,720 --> 00:08:32,640 Speaker 2: he's facilitating. There's just this you know, we use it 159 00:08:32,679 --> 00:08:36,480 Speaker 2: all the time, the gladiator hold hole all right now, 160 00:08:36,679 --> 00:08:39,480 Speaker 2: you know that kind of circumstance. And once he started 161 00:08:39,520 --> 00:08:41,760 Speaker 2: playing like he's running up the tunnel. Everybody's seeing these 162 00:08:41,840 --> 00:08:44,760 Speaker 2: videos at this point. They became viral, and I'm sure 163 00:08:44,800 --> 00:08:47,360 Speaker 2: they will become mimable for other things that you use 164 00:08:47,400 --> 00:08:49,600 Speaker 2: in your life. Go ahead and have at it. But 165 00:08:50,120 --> 00:08:54,880 Speaker 2: for the Lakers, Lonnie Walker and the early explosion of 166 00:08:54,960 --> 00:08:57,959 Speaker 2: Di'angelo Russell, to me is the guy I've in circle. 167 00:08:57,960 --> 00:09:02,280 Speaker 2: Everybody talking about ad. Okay, Lebron's gonna get his ad. 168 00:09:03,160 --> 00:09:05,840 Speaker 2: There's some variants, but to try to pin it on him, 169 00:09:05,880 --> 00:09:07,959 Speaker 2: it's like you need that third got his step up, 170 00:09:08,120 --> 00:09:12,840 Speaker 2: Austin Reeves his jump shot disappeared somewhere along the line 171 00:09:13,280 --> 00:09:16,199 Speaker 2: like that. That's just broken. But to get twelve points 172 00:09:16,240 --> 00:09:20,360 Speaker 2: from Lonnie Walker and D'Angelo Russell to pretty much outscore 173 00:09:20,400 --> 00:09:24,080 Speaker 2: the Warriors for a quarter, and that's there's your recipe 174 00:09:24,080 --> 00:09:24,640 Speaker 2: to success. 175 00:09:24,800 --> 00:09:28,480 Speaker 3: Well, D'Angelo Russell and Anthony Davis I think had all 176 00:09:28,520 --> 00:09:31,520 Speaker 3: but two or maybe four of the Lakers' first quarter points. 177 00:09:33,440 --> 00:09:37,480 Speaker 3: Not surprised, not surprised in the least, Mike that Lebron 178 00:09:37,520 --> 00:09:40,480 Speaker 3: didn't take a shot attempt in the first quarter, because 179 00:09:40,520 --> 00:09:43,439 Speaker 3: this is the recipe. This is this really has been 180 00:09:43,440 --> 00:09:46,560 Speaker 3: the recipe for Lebron, and he he uses this recipe 181 00:09:46,559 --> 00:09:48,280 Speaker 3: in a lot of different meals, if you will, if 182 00:09:48,320 --> 00:09:50,600 Speaker 3: you want to go along with those lines in the 183 00:09:50,600 --> 00:09:52,600 Speaker 3: way of saying it is is the reason he's not 184 00:09:52,640 --> 00:09:55,720 Speaker 3: taking shots is because he wants the Angela Russell to 185 00:09:55,720 --> 00:09:58,200 Speaker 3: to get going. They need an Anthony Davis to get 186 00:09:58,280 --> 00:10:03,240 Speaker 3: going early. Lebron can get his no matter what, even 187 00:10:03,280 --> 00:10:06,079 Speaker 3: at thirty eight years of age he can get going. 188 00:10:06,400 --> 00:10:09,040 Speaker 3: It does not help them. If Lebron comes out and 189 00:10:09,120 --> 00:10:12,120 Speaker 3: has twenty two points in the first quarter, they're likely cooked. 190 00:10:12,480 --> 00:10:15,560 Speaker 3: It's what Lebron does is then Lebron turns it on 191 00:10:15,800 --> 00:10:18,800 Speaker 3: in the opening of the third quarter the start of 192 00:10:18,800 --> 00:10:21,720 Speaker 3: the second half, and so this recipe has been there. 193 00:10:21,800 --> 00:10:24,560 Speaker 3: It's also a way where Lebron gets his numbers like 194 00:10:24,640 --> 00:10:28,679 Speaker 3: this is this is He's done this throughout his career. 195 00:10:29,120 --> 00:10:32,800 Speaker 3: Playoff basketball obviously different than regular season basketball, and why 196 00:10:32,840 --> 00:10:35,320 Speaker 3: you would do something like that, but we've seen Lebron 197 00:10:35,400 --> 00:10:38,200 Speaker 3: do this in this stage before, so it was no surprise. 198 00:10:38,600 --> 00:10:43,920 Speaker 3: The real surprise to me was how the Lakers jumped 199 00:10:43,960 --> 00:10:46,760 Speaker 3: out to that good start, god ahead a Golden State, 200 00:10:47,120 --> 00:10:50,040 Speaker 3: and then the Warriors go on a run to near 201 00:10:50,080 --> 00:10:52,080 Speaker 3: the end of the first quarter that allows them to 202 00:10:52,120 --> 00:10:56,200 Speaker 3: have the seven point lead. And it's what transpired over 203 00:10:56,280 --> 00:11:01,079 Speaker 3: the next two quarters where Golden State completely as an 204 00:11:01,160 --> 00:11:04,760 Speaker 3: awful second quarter and then you know that Golden State 205 00:11:04,840 --> 00:11:08,080 Speaker 3: is usually a team that is magnificent out of halftime, 206 00:11:08,520 --> 00:11:11,160 Speaker 3: but that's when Lebron turns it on and the Lakers 207 00:11:11,240 --> 00:11:13,559 Speaker 3: end up outscoring Golden State by seven and because of 208 00:11:13,600 --> 00:11:16,280 Speaker 3: what happened in the second quarter. Now you basically have 209 00:11:16,360 --> 00:11:20,280 Speaker 3: a near blowout on your hands, and it was over 210 00:11:20,320 --> 00:11:22,520 Speaker 3: by the early fourth. It's just the way of the 211 00:11:22,520 --> 00:11:25,120 Speaker 3: game of you thought, like the Lakers jumping out early, Mike, 212 00:11:25,200 --> 00:11:27,600 Speaker 3: and then the Warriors catching them, You're like, okay, here 213 00:11:27,640 --> 00:11:31,040 Speaker 3: it is Golden State has their claws in them. They're done. 214 00:11:31,440 --> 00:11:34,680 Speaker 3: But that would fall into the trap of people just 215 00:11:34,840 --> 00:11:37,160 Speaker 3: reading the name on the front of the jersey, because 216 00:11:37,160 --> 00:11:40,959 Speaker 3: that's not the Golden State team. Like the Golden State 217 00:11:41,000 --> 00:11:43,840 Speaker 3: team that we had seen all season did not just 218 00:11:44,080 --> 00:11:48,400 Speaker 3: cure their woes with that series in Sacramento by winning 219 00:11:48,440 --> 00:11:50,560 Speaker 3: those games on the road. In games five and seven, 220 00:11:50,880 --> 00:11:53,640 Speaker 3: still a team that has difficulty winning on the road. 221 00:11:53,760 --> 00:11:56,080 Speaker 3: We saw Anthony Davis do his things again. I mean, 222 00:11:56,480 --> 00:11:58,360 Speaker 3: it's seriously going to go six or seven games. But 223 00:11:59,000 --> 00:12:00,920 Speaker 3: what we saw last aright is actually what we've seen 224 00:12:00,920 --> 00:12:04,760 Speaker 3: from the Warriors before, So maybe we shouldn't be surprised. 225 00:12:05,000 --> 00:12:07,040 Speaker 3: I was just surprised at how the Lakers we spotted 226 00:12:07,280 --> 00:12:11,360 Speaker 3: after giving up that early lead and then just absolutely 227 00:12:11,400 --> 00:12:14,480 Speaker 3: taking off with Lebron doing this thing in the second half. 228 00:12:14,520 --> 00:12:17,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, the only time I've been surprised by the Warriors 229 00:12:17,040 --> 00:12:20,280 Speaker 2: at all in this postseason. Was that game six effort, 230 00:12:20,360 --> 00:12:24,840 Speaker 2: last round home game, opportunity to close it out, and 231 00:12:24,840 --> 00:12:27,800 Speaker 2: they know showed right that was like, I have no 232 00:12:27,920 --> 00:12:30,319 Speaker 2: expectations for this series, and I think it might be 233 00:12:30,360 --> 00:12:33,000 Speaker 2: the best way to watch as a fan game to game, 234 00:12:34,040 --> 00:12:36,520 Speaker 2: just grab my popcorn and sit back and watch to 235 00:12:36,559 --> 00:12:39,000 Speaker 2: see who's going to become a hero and which guys 236 00:12:39,000 --> 00:12:42,280 Speaker 2: are gonna shrink. We watched the Warriors. They couldn't shoot, sure, right, 237 00:12:42,480 --> 00:12:45,360 Speaker 2: when you get out out shot from three point range 238 00:12:45,880 --> 00:12:49,720 Speaker 2: by the Lakers, which the tagline for them this year 239 00:12:49,960 --> 00:12:53,320 Speaker 2: is we can't shoot from the outside. Everything has to 240 00:12:53,400 --> 00:12:57,240 Speaker 2: happen inside and they go for what fifteen of thirty 241 00:12:57,280 --> 00:13:00,719 Speaker 2: one from three point range? That was the part of 242 00:13:00,760 --> 00:13:03,280 Speaker 2: the game that you're sitting after the first quarter. That 243 00:13:03,320 --> 00:13:06,800 Speaker 2: can't be sustainable, right, Things are going to go ice cold, 244 00:13:07,520 --> 00:13:08,559 Speaker 2: and they never really did. 245 00:13:08,679 --> 00:13:12,080 Speaker 3: Yeah, no, And and honestly, the Lakers don't even need 246 00:13:12,200 --> 00:13:15,959 Speaker 3: the three as much. It's just a matter of defending 247 00:13:16,000 --> 00:13:19,160 Speaker 3: the three. And Golden State hit a couple in the 248 00:13:19,240 --> 00:13:22,320 Speaker 3: in the first first quarter, which allowed them to get 249 00:13:22,600 --> 00:13:27,559 Speaker 3: the lead, but Golden State had thirty eight points combined 250 00:13:27,600 --> 00:13:31,280 Speaker 3: in the second and third quarters. Right like that. I 251 00:13:31,280 --> 00:13:33,880 Speaker 3: mean when you say that you don't know what to expect. 252 00:13:34,600 --> 00:13:36,760 Speaker 3: A lot of times you think about teams that are 253 00:13:37,120 --> 00:13:40,440 Speaker 3: at the top of their game, and I'm not. I'll 254 00:13:40,480 --> 00:13:43,840 Speaker 3: take the twenty sixteen NBA Finals, not the twenty seventeen 255 00:13:43,840 --> 00:13:47,240 Speaker 3: when Durant joined Golden State, but the twenty sixteen one 256 00:13:47,960 --> 00:13:53,320 Speaker 3: where the final, you know, three games when Draymond you know, 257 00:13:53,360 --> 00:13:55,880 Speaker 3: has the service suspension and then comes back. You don't 258 00:13:55,880 --> 00:13:57,920 Speaker 3: know what. You don't know what's going to happen. You 259 00:13:57,920 --> 00:13:59,960 Speaker 3: think you kind of do, but you don't. Because there's 260 00:14:00,080 --> 00:14:04,360 Speaker 3: two great teams. You take these squads Golden State now 261 00:14:04,400 --> 00:14:07,679 Speaker 3: at Lebron and the Lakers, but it's different, Mike, because 262 00:14:07,679 --> 00:14:10,480 Speaker 3: of the faults that they actually have. And that is 263 00:14:10,600 --> 00:14:13,400 Speaker 3: that is this is this is a wild card weekend 264 00:14:13,400 --> 00:14:16,440 Speaker 3: in the NFL like that. That's that's what we've got 265 00:14:16,480 --> 00:14:18,640 Speaker 3: here with these teams, because it's not the greatness that's 266 00:14:18,640 --> 00:14:22,120 Speaker 3: seeping through, it's what sort of fault. Would we be shocked? 267 00:14:22,160 --> 00:14:25,640 Speaker 3: Would you be shocked if Anthony Davis had thirteen points 268 00:14:25,720 --> 00:14:28,120 Speaker 3: in Game four? No, No, not at all. 269 00:14:28,040 --> 00:14:31,320 Speaker 2: Absolutely not. And if they shot fifteen percent from three 270 00:14:31,360 --> 00:14:34,400 Speaker 2: point range? Yes, right, wouldn't be shocked at all if 271 00:14:34,440 --> 00:14:37,400 Speaker 2: D'Angelo Russell shrunk away. I mean that's been kind of 272 00:14:37,440 --> 00:14:39,840 Speaker 2: the pattern, and I think we can apply this a 273 00:14:39,880 --> 00:14:42,920 Speaker 2: little more liberally to the NBA as a whole, for 274 00:14:43,840 --> 00:14:46,760 Speaker 2: better or for worse. You've had a lot of great 275 00:14:47,120 --> 00:14:52,760 Speaker 2: games than disappearing acts from teams and individual players in 276 00:14:52,760 --> 00:14:56,760 Speaker 2: almost every series. Almost every series we've seen is like 277 00:14:56,920 --> 00:14:58,960 Speaker 2: go back to and James Harden has become the poster 278 00:14:59,080 --> 00:15:01,560 Speaker 2: child for this is forty five in Game one with 279 00:15:01,600 --> 00:15:04,440 Speaker 2: no EMBIID last two games he can't hit the broad 280 00:15:04,440 --> 00:15:08,600 Speaker 2: side of a barn. Yes, right, MAXI had a huge 281 00:15:08,640 --> 00:15:12,200 Speaker 2: Game one. He's been just a guy for the last 282 00:15:12,200 --> 00:15:15,560 Speaker 2: two games. Uh, go on down the line, Phoenix. This 283 00:15:15,680 --> 00:15:20,320 Speaker 2: last game, Devin Booker and Kevin Durant are lights out now. 284 00:15:20,680 --> 00:15:23,000 Speaker 2: The fact that they had to score eighty six points 285 00:15:23,280 --> 00:15:28,000 Speaker 2: for you to win a game is problematic and goes 286 00:15:28,040 --> 00:15:31,120 Speaker 2: back to the rotational stuff we were talking about in 287 00:15:31,200 --> 00:15:34,880 Speaker 2: weeks past. But just the point of all right, you're 288 00:15:34,920 --> 00:15:39,400 Speaker 2: seeing that EBB and flow like consistency looking for it. 289 00:15:39,440 --> 00:15:42,000 Speaker 2: You're you're not fighting it in these NBA playoffs. 290 00:15:41,800 --> 00:15:44,760 Speaker 3: It's it's a it's a great series as well, because 291 00:15:44,760 --> 00:15:47,880 Speaker 3: there's like this is this is the one like the 292 00:15:47,880 --> 00:15:50,400 Speaker 3: first Greate as the first round was. We're kind of 293 00:15:50,840 --> 00:15:53,440 Speaker 3: starting to to get into territory where if you look 294 00:15:53,480 --> 00:15:55,360 Speaker 3: at the final four for what it is in the NBA, 295 00:15:55,960 --> 00:15:58,160 Speaker 3: I'm not sure how much glitz and glamour there's going 296 00:15:58,200 --> 00:15:59,880 Speaker 3: to be, but one of these teams is going to 297 00:15:59,880 --> 00:16:02,440 Speaker 3: be there. So they're gonna bring some name recognition and 298 00:16:02,720 --> 00:16:06,040 Speaker 3: Boston or Philadelphia will as Well and Nixon heat same thing. 299 00:16:07,200 --> 00:16:09,840 Speaker 3: But when you're talking about, yeah, what we could get 300 00:16:09,880 --> 00:16:12,120 Speaker 3: moving on, we're gonna get one of these teams, but 301 00:16:12,160 --> 00:16:13,560 Speaker 3: it's not gonna be one of these teams as we 302 00:16:13,640 --> 00:16:14,360 Speaker 3: normally see them. 303 00:16:14,400 --> 00:16:18,080 Speaker 2: Well, we'll pause and take the appreciation moment for this series, 304 00:16:18,480 --> 00:16:20,800 Speaker 2: and I want to bring in one of the dads 305 00:16:21,400 --> 00:16:25,760 Speaker 2: because well he's a commentator for those unaware nationally and 306 00:16:25,800 --> 00:16:30,720 Speaker 2: he had some critical moments for the opponent. We'll talk 307 00:16:30,760 --> 00:16:33,360 Speaker 2: about that next coming up here on Fox Sports Sunday. 308 00:16:33,400 --> 00:16:35,760 Speaker 2: He's Dan Byer, I'm Mike Carbon.

We not that we agree on everything, but yeah, 320 00:17:16,320 --> 00:17:22,040 Speaker 2: we did civil discourse occasionally a little I run hot 321 00:17:22,080 --> 00:17:23,840 Speaker 2: sometimes and they got me a new coffee machine. 322 00:17:23,920 --> 00:17:24,080 Speaker 1: Dan. 323 00:17:24,480 --> 00:17:27,680 Speaker 2: So today is a really big day here. I came 324 00:17:27,720 --> 00:17:33,359 Speaker 2: in on Thursday and it said error see attendance. And 325 00:17:33,440 --> 00:17:35,800 Speaker 2: I did everything trying to reboot it, all those things 326 00:17:35,800 --> 00:17:38,800 Speaker 2: you would do, like customer sport. Have you unplugged it 327 00:17:38,840 --> 00:17:41,840 Speaker 2: and plugged it back in? Have you cleared the mechanism 328 00:17:42,160 --> 00:17:44,840 Speaker 2: stealing from for love of the game, All of those things, 329 00:17:45,600 --> 00:17:48,240 Speaker 2: and to no avail. So it became the you know, 330 00:17:48,280 --> 00:17:51,479 Speaker 2: withdrawal kind of thing. I actually brought in crystals just 331 00:17:51,480 --> 00:17:53,960 Speaker 2: in case we didn't have a machine. So today it 332 00:17:54,000 --> 00:17:55,800 Speaker 2: was like the ray of Sunshine. 333 00:17:55,880 --> 00:17:58,960 Speaker 3: So you're the one that allowed us to get a 334 00:17:58,960 --> 00:17:59,919 Speaker 3: new coffee machine as well. 335 00:18:00,359 --> 00:18:03,119 Speaker 2: I might have overworked it, although I know people that 336 00:18:03,200 --> 00:18:05,720 Speaker 2: have their hacks of how they like their coffee done 337 00:18:06,080 --> 00:18:09,840 Speaker 2: that may or may not have been compliant without the 338 00:18:09,880 --> 00:18:12,800 Speaker 2: old machine was supposed to use. But wherever it came from, 339 00:18:12,840 --> 00:18:17,480 Speaker 2: whatever floor of our buildings and storage, I'm a happy man. 340 00:18:17,680 --> 00:18:21,960 Speaker 3: I am going on eighteen years here at Fox Sports Radio, 341 00:18:22,960 --> 00:18:26,320 Speaker 3: and there are a lot of things that I've done, 342 00:18:26,359 --> 00:18:29,679 Speaker 3: but you've heard my voice for eighteen years. I know 343 00:18:30,280 --> 00:18:35,440 Speaker 3: the day whenever I leave this place, my lasting legacy 344 00:18:35,960 --> 00:18:38,640 Speaker 3: will be recommending the vending machine that we got down here. 345 00:18:38,800 --> 00:18:40,679 Speaker 3: True story like that, Drew. You want to talk like 346 00:18:40,920 --> 00:18:43,960 Speaker 3: there is nothing that I have done on the air, 347 00:18:44,119 --> 00:18:47,040 Speaker 3: I think that will have more of an impact than 348 00:18:47,160 --> 00:18:51,560 Speaker 3: of just having the vending machine available for us here 349 00:18:51,680 --> 00:18:55,520 Speaker 3: on the first floor. So I'm not trying to be 350 00:18:55,640 --> 00:18:59,480 Speaker 3: a bragger, Mike.

But his partner, Michael 455 00:23:45,119 --> 00:23:49,720 Speaker 2: Thompson Clay's dad, and he's referenced to enough that I 456 00:23:49,760 --> 00:23:51,960 Speaker 2: think most of the national audience knows who he is. 457 00:23:52,000 --> 00:23:56,280 Speaker 2: But he's on the call, right, former Laker World champion, 458 00:23:56,359 --> 00:23:59,639 Speaker 2: all of these things, and late in the first Clay 459 00:23:59,680 --> 00:24:03,600 Speaker 2: starts hitting shots.

Then they have a quick possession 464 00:24:17,119 --> 00:24:20,000 Speaker 2: where Jordan Poole takes a shot and you have the 465 00:24:20,040 --> 00:24:23,479 Speaker 2: first dad moment where Michael Thomps is like, no, Clay's 466 00:24:23,480 --> 00:24:25,399 Speaker 2: heating up, why does he touch the ball? Like, and 467 00:24:25,520 --> 00:24:27,399 Speaker 2: he kind of goes goes into this whole thing. I 468 00:24:27,440 --> 00:24:30,360 Speaker 2: don't understand it. Jordan Poole Again, we talk about Jordan 469 00:24:30,400 --> 00:24:33,080 Speaker 2: Poole a lot like and he goes down into complete 470 00:24:33,160 --> 00:24:35,360 Speaker 2: dad moments, like, you know, my guy's heating up, Why 471 00:24:35,359 --> 00:24:38,080 Speaker 2: is he not getting the ball, and then there's gonna 472 00:24:38,080 --> 00:24:41,440 Speaker 2: be a substitution in the final minute of the first quarter. 473 00:24:41,440 --> 00:24:43,920 Speaker 2: It's like, well, it's gonna look what's Steve Kerr doing. 474 00:24:44,240 --> 00:24:46,840 Speaker 2: Why is he taking Clay out? Like he goes through 475 00:24:46,960 --> 00:24:50,199 Speaker 2: complete dad thing, and Ireland's like, you know, we are 476 00:24:50,240 --> 00:24:51,560 Speaker 2: the Lakers broadcast. 477 00:24:52,240 --> 00:24:56,359 Speaker 3: There was there was a point though that this clip 478 00:24:56,440 --> 00:25:02,160 Speaker 3: was circulating recently because it was uh Lakers Warriors when 479 00:25:02,600 --> 00:25:05,119 Speaker 3: Del Curry and Steph Curry sat down with Michael Thompson 480 00:25:05,160 --> 00:25:09,199 Speaker 3: and Clay Thompson, and Michael admitted that, like, if it 481 00:25:09,280 --> 00:25:11,600 Speaker 3: comes down to it, like towards the end, this was 482 00:25:11,680 --> 00:25:15,560 Speaker 3: years ago, this was this was recorded. Michael was saying 483 00:25:15,600 --> 00:25:20,479 Speaker 3: that he if Clay has the ball in the you know, 484 00:25:20,520 --> 00:25:22,320 Speaker 3: at the end of the game to beat the Lakers, 485 00:25:22,359 --> 00:25:26,080 Speaker 3: like he's hoping that the shot misses, and and and 486 00:25:26,160 --> 00:25:29,440 Speaker 3: Michael tries to get the the you know, like hey, Dell, 487 00:25:29,560 --> 00:25:34,760 Speaker 3: don't you agree? And Dell's like like he's like, you know, 488 00:25:34,800 --> 00:25:37,720 Speaker 3: like if it was and and Michael used the hornets 489 00:25:37,760 --> 00:25:40,240 Speaker 3: as an example, like it does like, yeah, we're talking 490 00:25:40,240 --> 00:25:43,000 Speaker 3: about blood here. But Michael admitted that he would actually 491 00:25:43,080 --> 00:25:46,119 Speaker 3: cheer for the Lakers. Uh, if it came down, you know, 492 00:25:46,440 --> 00:25:48,000 Speaker 3: as it comes down to it, because it's not only 493 00:25:48,040 --> 00:25:51,240 Speaker 3: the broadcasts. Obviously is his playing career. But still you 494 00:25:51,240 --> 00:25:53,680 Speaker 3: would think like his son would trump ball, and there 495 00:25:53,720 --> 00:25:55,520 Speaker 3: probably was a lot to that as well. But that's 496 00:25:55,560 --> 00:25:58,160 Speaker 3: also a basketball thing too, and you, like I mentioned 497 00:25:58,200 --> 00:26:01,000 Speaker 3: the Jordan Poole stuff, that's probably one of the problems. 498 00:26:01,000 --> 00:26:03,320 Speaker 3: It's probably one of the problems that the Golden State 499 00:26:03,359 --> 00:26:03,760 Speaker 3: has happening. 500 00:26:03,840 --> 00:26:06,960 Speaker 2: Can't defend and his SHOT's been Look, go back to 501 00:26:07,000 --> 00:26:09,480 Speaker 2: the selection of Game one. Folks want to kill him 502 00:26:09,520 --> 00:26:12,359 Speaker 2: for it. Yeah, no, open, Look, he shoots the ball. 503 00:26:12,800 --> 00:26:14,879 Speaker 2: Could he have dribbled. Could they have called a time 504 00:26:14,880 --> 00:26:18,159 Speaker 2: out and tried to set something up, Yes, probably to 505 00:26:18,280 --> 00:26:21,040 Speaker 2: run a screen to do what they normally do. There's 506 00:26:21,160 --> 00:26:26,440 Speaker 2: nine seconds after the rebound of the misshot. But where 507 00:26:26,480 --> 00:26:28,320 Speaker 2: we've seen it time and again, and this was a 508 00:26:28,320 --> 00:26:31,359 Speaker 2: great circumstance. You've battled back. You now have a lead 509 00:26:31,480 --> 00:26:34,320 Speaker 2: going towards the end of the first quarter, and that 510 00:26:34,400 --> 00:26:36,680 Speaker 2: misshot kind of killed the momentum because it was like, 511 00:26:36,720 --> 00:26:40,040 Speaker 2: all right, Clay's gonna see it again, or STEP's gonna 512 00:26:40,080 --> 00:26:42,720 Speaker 2: pop free and he misses a shot, and he misses it. 513 00:26:42,760 --> 00:26:46,120 Speaker 2: Badly at the beginning of a shot clock, like so 514 00:26:46,160 --> 00:26:48,800 Speaker 2: it had all of the elements of what are you doing? 515 00:26:49,080 --> 00:26:52,960 Speaker 2: So the basketball player and Michael Thompson popped up in 516 00:26:53,000 --> 00:26:56,160 Speaker 2: there like wait what but also the dead Yes, hey, 517 00:26:57,000 --> 00:26:59,120 Speaker 2: Clay's Clay's hot, what are you doing? And then he's 518 00:26:59,160 --> 00:27:01,080 Speaker 2: yelling at Steve Kerr how do you bench him at 519 00:27:01,119 --> 00:27:02,159 Speaker 2: the end of the course. 520 00:27:02,119 --> 00:27:04,720 Speaker 3: And who knows more? You know, who knows more about 521 00:27:04,800 --> 00:27:07,760 Speaker 3: Klay Thompson, Steve kerb Michael Thompson, that's the question? 522 00:27:08,359 --> 00:27:10,840 Speaker 2: Fun stuff, And then on the TV call was pretty 523 00:27:10,960 --> 00:27:13,600 Speaker 2: entertaining later in the game Anthony Davis, who played like 524 00:27:13,640 --> 00:27:16,359 Speaker 2: a man possessed on both ends of the court, but 525 00:27:16,720 --> 00:27:21,680 Speaker 2: somehow in a game riddled with curious foul calls, trying 526 00:27:21,720 --> 00:27:24,240 Speaker 2: to be nice because they weren't all on the Warriors, 527 00:27:24,320 --> 00:27:28,280 Speaker 2: as folks would seem, have you believe, And certainly in 528 00:27:28,320 --> 00:27:29,560 Speaker 2: the postgame presser. 529 00:27:29,359 --> 00:27:32,240 Speaker 3: Sure there were a lot of guesses Warriors, Yeah. 530 00:27:32,200 --> 00:27:34,879 Speaker 2: But a lot of like dubious, is that really a fall? 531 00:27:35,359 --> 00:27:39,800 Speaker 2: Like the Klay Thompson where he's got his elbow still bends, 532 00:27:39,840 --> 00:27:42,440 Speaker 2: like did he really shove him or are we kind 533 00:27:42,440 --> 00:27:44,760 Speaker 2: of got a little bit of contact and you're just 534 00:27:44,840 --> 00:27:48,920 Speaker 2: injecting yourself in the game. Draymond, who is a firestorm 535 00:27:48,960 --> 00:27:50,720 Speaker 2: all the time. Now, if you keep trying to draw 536 00:27:50,840 --> 00:27:54,240 Speaker 2: charges most of the time, that's gonna go the other 537 00:27:54,280 --> 00:27:54,760 Speaker 2: way on you. 538 00:27:55,280 --> 00:27:58,080 Speaker 3: I'll tell you what the names of the front of 539 00:27:58,080 --> 00:28:03,800 Speaker 3: the jerseys matter, and those calls when it says sorry Denver, 540 00:28:03,920 --> 00:28:07,359 Speaker 3: but when it says Nuggets not of the cachet that 541 00:28:07,440 --> 00:28:10,560 Speaker 3: the late and so the Warriors are usually the team, 542 00:28:10,880 --> 00:28:13,080 Speaker 3: you know. And it's actually something that I'd love to 543 00:28:13,080 --> 00:28:15,119 Speaker 3: get in a conversation, whether it be today's shows or 544 00:28:15,160 --> 00:28:19,480 Speaker 3: another show of just brand brand recognition in the NBA 545 00:28:19,720 --> 00:28:22,919 Speaker 3: because of just that that Warrior's name has become just 546 00:28:23,080 --> 00:28:28,600 Speaker 3: so huge, and usually it's they're gonna get there, They're 547 00:28:28,640 --> 00:28:31,440 Speaker 3: getting the calls. Let's be honest. I'm not saying it's rigged. 548 00:28:31,520 --> 00:28:33,880 Speaker 3: It's not what I'm saying. I'm just saying that their success, 549 00:28:34,000 --> 00:28:38,280 Speaker 3: what they do, the officiating tends to go towards them. 550 00:28:38,320 --> 00:28:40,880 Speaker 3: And now you have a situation where it's like, oh 551 00:28:40,920 --> 00:28:42,080 Speaker 3: wait a second, here. 552 00:28:42,240 --> 00:28:45,320 Speaker 2: There's another huge free throw disparity.

As we talked last week with Jeff paul 705 00:36:40,360 --> 00:36:42,200 Speaker 2: Us Open coming in June. 706 00:36:41,960 --> 00:36:44,800 Speaker 3: Yes at the LA Country Club on the North Course. 707 00:36:44,880 --> 00:36:49,560 Speaker 3: It'll be, gosh, the first major in LA in almost 708 00:36:49,560 --> 00:36:53,720 Speaker 3: thirty years, the first US Open in LA in seventy 709 00:36:53,760 --> 00:36:56,120 Speaker 3: some years. So there is there's a lot of history 710 00:36:56,160 --> 00:36:58,799 Speaker 3: that is going on. With seventy five years, I think 711 00:36:58,920 --> 00:37:01,360 Speaker 3: is the action number of the last time that the 712 00:37:01,440 --> 00:37:04,040 Speaker 3: US Open was in Los Angeles. And so it comes 713 00:37:04,080 --> 00:37:08,359 Speaker 3: next month at LA Country Club, the North Course, and 714 00:37:08,520 --> 00:37:11,680 Speaker 3: on Monday, this past Monday, I was able to tee 715 00:37:11,680 --> 00:37:14,640 Speaker 3: it up in the media day, and the media days 716 00:37:14,680 --> 00:37:18,440 Speaker 3: are awesome. We put it on social media, throw some pictures, videos, 717 00:37:18,440 --> 00:37:19,759 Speaker 3: but I thought the best way to do it for 718 00:37:19,880 --> 00:37:22,800 Speaker 3: us Mike and I've done this before and I haven't 719 00:37:22,840 --> 00:37:27,840 Speaker 3: done it lately basically to save myself from embarrassment. But 720 00:37:29,080 --> 00:37:31,080 Speaker 3: this time around, the figured let's bring it back. Let's 721 00:37:31,120 --> 00:37:34,239 Speaker 3: have some fun.

Put together a US Open prize pack, 724 00:37:39,280 --> 00:37:41,480 Speaker 3: which is a US Open hat, glove, and chip. And 725 00:37:41,840 --> 00:37:45,200 Speaker 3: last week on the show, we asked you the listener, 726 00:37:45,280 --> 00:37:47,319 Speaker 3: if you wanted to chime in on Twitter at Dan 727 00:37:47,360 --> 00:37:49,799 Speaker 3: Byer on Fox at swollen domes where you can get 728 00:37:49,840 --> 00:37:53,200 Speaker 3: Mike with the hashtag buyer Scores to guess my combined 729 00:37:53,239 --> 00:37:56,560 Speaker 3: score on the par four sixth hole, which measures for 730 00:37:56,640 --> 00:38:00,919 Speaker 3: the Championship three hundred and thirty yards and the fifteenth hole, 731 00:38:00,960 --> 00:38:03,359 Speaker 3: which is one hundred and twenty four yards but could 732 00:38:03,360 --> 00:38:06,520 Speaker 3: play as short as seventy five to eighty yards at 733 00:38:06,600 --> 00:38:09,799 Speaker 3: least for one round of the Championship. Combined score of 734 00:38:09,800 --> 00:38:12,680 Speaker 3: those two a par three and a par four, that's 735 00:38:12,680 --> 00:38:14,680 Speaker 3: what we wanted you to guess what my total score 736 00:38:14,680 --> 00:38:14,960 Speaker 3: would be. 737 00:38:14,960 --> 00:38:17,799 Speaker 2: All right, So as you you got the answers and 738 00:38:17,800 --> 00:38:20,400 Speaker 2: we watched them roll in over the course of a 739 00:38:20,440 --> 00:38:25,319 Speaker 2: couple of days at the hashtag buyer Scores, did you 740 00:38:25,360 --> 00:38:28,279 Speaker 2: feel like the weight as you went to tee off 741 00:38:28,320 --> 00:38:29,080 Speaker 2: on those holes? 742 00:38:29,280 --> 00:38:32,360 Speaker 3: I'll say this. We started on fourteen because it was 743 00:38:32,400 --> 00:38:35,160 Speaker 3: a shotgun start, and I kid you not. The group 744 00:38:35,200 --> 00:38:38,439 Speaker 3: ahead of me had Jason Bateman and Will Arnett. So yeah, 745 00:38:38,480 --> 00:38:41,719 Speaker 3: so there's there's some heavy some heavy hitters, but they 746 00:38:41,760 --> 00:38:42,400 Speaker 3: weren't gonna. 747 00:38:42,239 --> 00:38:43,600 Speaker 2: See me going I'm Batman. 748 00:38:43,840 --> 00:38:47,000 Speaker 3: No, I did not. I did not, but both they 749 00:38:47,000 --> 00:38:49,400 Speaker 3: were they were ahead of me, so they didn't have 750 00:38:49,440 --> 00:38:52,040 Speaker 3: to see my shot. But We started on fourteen mikes, 751 00:38:52,040 --> 00:38:53,959 Speaker 3: so the fifteenth hole was my second hole of the day, 752 00:38:54,280 --> 00:38:57,040 Speaker 3: which is perfect for my back because it is not 753 00:38:57,560 --> 00:39:00,560 Speaker 3: sore and thrown out by the by the end of 754 00:39:00,560 --> 00:39:03,480 Speaker 3: the round. So I posted a picture. I had a 755 00:39:03,480 --> 00:39:06,680 Speaker 3: birdie put on fifteen, like you'll see like it is 756 00:39:06,719 --> 00:39:11,160 Speaker 3: a tough green and the pin was talked right behind 757 00:39:11,719 --> 00:39:14,560 Speaker 3: a little mound in the green. Didn't hit a great 758 00:39:14,560 --> 00:39:16,719 Speaker 3: first putt, was able to make the five footer for 759 00:39:16,800 --> 00:39:19,319 Speaker 3: par We were good. We were good. I was ready 760 00:39:19,400 --> 00:39:21,400 Speaker 3: to go. I'm like, man, the people who get seven 761 00:39:21,480 --> 00:39:23,839 Speaker 3: par park could be great. And I'll just say this. 762 00:39:24,440 --> 00:39:29,200 Speaker 3: I hit a great drive on six, but it just 763 00:39:29,239 --> 00:39:31,879 Speaker 3: didn't end up or I needed to. And that's where 764 00:39:31,880 --> 00:39:33,880 Speaker 3: golf is. In fact, I got a really bad break 765 00:39:33,880 --> 00:39:36,640 Speaker 3: that I actually had to pitch backwards, and then I 766 00:39:36,680 --> 00:39:39,040 Speaker 3: messed up my chip. I was in a bunker where 767 00:39:39,040 --> 00:39:43,160 Speaker 3: the green goes downhill, went from bunker to bunker. Had 768 00:39:43,280 --> 00:39:47,560 Speaker 3: ended up taking a quadruple bogie eight. It was absolutely disheartening. 769 00:39:48,040 --> 00:39:50,320 Speaker 3: I wish I could have, you know, had a score 770 00:39:50,360 --> 00:39:53,279 Speaker 3: of seven for myself. But it's a better story when 771 00:39:53,320 --> 00:39:56,280 Speaker 3: I stink, and so I hope that we got the story, 772 00:39:56,640 --> 00:40:00,279 Speaker 3: and now we need to draw winner because Kevin, Joel, Ed, 773 00:40:00,360 --> 00:40:04,280 Speaker 3: and Chuck all picked my score to be eleven. Ethan 774 00:40:04,360 --> 00:40:07,680 Speaker 3: and Mark have the the magic hat. Ethan, who's gonna draw? 775 00:40:07,680 --> 00:40:10,880 Speaker 3: You're gonna draws market a draw. It's gonna be mighty Mark.

But we only have one prize pack, 779 00:40:18,400 --> 00:40:20,719 Speaker 3: So whosever name is pulled from this will win the 780 00:40:20,840 --> 00:40:24,120 Speaker 3: US Open prize pack.

Certainly in your workplace 827 00:42:54,560 --> 00:42:57,200 Speaker 2: they do. And you never want just meets expectations. No, 828 00:42:57,360 --> 00:43:01,680 Speaker 2: you're trying to outdo out with outline play and dominated 829 00:43:01,760 --> 00:43:02,480 Speaker 2: every phase. 830 00:43:03,160 --> 00:43:05,960 Speaker 3: I needed an immunity idol on that hole to just 831 00:43:06,080 --> 00:43:08,120 Speaker 3: not even play it and write down a score and 832 00:43:08,160 --> 00:43:08,680 Speaker 3: move on to all. 833 00:43:08,719 --> 00:43:12,440 Speaker 2: The second you heard someone in a conk shell on you. 834 00:43:12,680 --> 00:43:15,680 Speaker 3: It is. It is so silly, but I do feel 835 00:43:15,680 --> 00:43:18,960 Speaker 3: the pressure, so I can't imagine what it's like. And 836 00:43:19,040 --> 00:43:21,560 Speaker 3: I know the skill set is different, so it's but 837 00:43:21,560 --> 00:43:25,680 Speaker 3: but the the fact is is I I it was 838 00:43:25,800 --> 00:43:28,680 Speaker 3: that I was nervous. It's not that you're nervous. But 839 00:43:28,719 --> 00:43:31,640 Speaker 3: what happens is is you know that there's a weight 840 00:43:31,920 --> 00:43:34,840 Speaker 3: on a certain shot. Sure t shot was fine. I 841 00:43:34,880 --> 00:43:38,240 Speaker 3: knew I had to literally had to pitch backwards for 842 00:43:38,239 --> 00:43:41,240 Speaker 3: for where it was and where the lie was. Crazy 843 00:43:41,280 --> 00:43:44,400 Speaker 3: little short hole. I think the pros will will score 844 00:43:44,440 --> 00:43:47,160 Speaker 3: fairly well on it, but you probably will see doubles 845 00:43:47,200 --> 00:43:50,440 Speaker 3: on the sixth hole at the US Open coming up 846 00:43:50,440 --> 00:43:53,319 Speaker 3: in June. But it's just the pressure of being like, 847 00:43:53,400 --> 00:43:56,200 Speaker 3: all right, you gotta gotta do this. Got a little 848 00:43:56,280 --> 00:43:58,640 Speaker 3: quick and uh yeah, got me nowhere. 849 00:43:58,920 --> 00:44:00,960 Speaker 2: But that's just it, right, All of those in the 850 00:44:01,000 --> 00:44:04,120 Speaker 2: moments get magnified, right the rest. You probably played free 851 00:44:04,120 --> 00:44:06,759 Speaker 2: and easy on most of the other holes. Maybe as 852 00:44:06,800 --> 00:44:09,600 Speaker 2: you finished your round, as you were alluding to, maybe 853 00:44:09,640 --> 00:44:13,480 Speaker 2: the backs tightening up, maybe you're still grousing about the 854 00:44:13,480 --> 00:44:17,000 Speaker 2: the shot you had on you know, on six. 855 00:44:17,880 --> 00:44:21,719 Speaker 3: Correct the sixteen other holes were completely different than the two. 856 00:44:21,760 --> 00:44:24,040 Speaker 3: The the amount of relief that I hit the green 857 00:44:24,080 --> 00:44:26,720 Speaker 3: on the first one. Yeah, like that was the high 858 00:44:26,800 --> 00:44:31,279 Speaker 3: of high. But in no way in any anybody who 859 00:44:31,280 --> 00:44:37,280 Speaker 3: plays golf understands this. In no way do the highs 860 00:44:37,360 --> 00:44:41,240 Speaker 3: of the high match the lows of the lows. 861 00:44:41,080 --> 00:44:44,560 Speaker 2: That but that is I mean, that's the microcosm. That 862 00:44:44,680 --> 00:44:48,000 Speaker 2: is the metaphor of life. Yes right, I mean, even 863 00:44:48,080 --> 00:44:51,560 Speaker 2: when we have great successes in any aspect of our life, 864 00:44:51,600 --> 00:44:53,560 Speaker 2: something that you don't do one hundred percent, or you 865 00:44:53,600 --> 00:44:55,759 Speaker 2: feel like you could have done better, or that you 866 00:44:55,880 --> 00:44:59,520 Speaker 2: let someone down or whatever, it weighs on you. There's 867 00:44:59,520 --> 00:45:02,600 Speaker 2: no question about it. And I know because you wanted 868 00:45:02,640 --> 00:45:04,759 Speaker 2: to have as low a score as possible to be 869 00:45:04,800 --> 00:45:07,240 Speaker 2: able to say, hey, all of you that had faith 870 00:45:07,280 --> 00:45:08,600 Speaker 2: in me that I'd hit my eight. 871 00:45:09,520 --> 00:45:12,600 Speaker 3: All of you who had sevens, you know, thank you. 872 00:45:12,760 --> 00:45:16,040 Speaker 2: I may send them just an autograph to something of 873 00:45:16,120 --> 00:45:19,800 Speaker 2: me just for giving you a seven. 874 00:45:20,440 --> 00:45:23,040 Speaker 3: For those of you who predicted fifteen, you know where 875 00:45:23,040 --> 00:45:25,320 Speaker 3: you can go. It's not going to say it's Sunday morning, 876 00:45:26,040 --> 00:45:26,880 Speaker 3: not gonna happen. 877 00:45:27,000 --> 00:45:30,040 Speaker 2: I will see you in no you know what you're 878 00:45:30,040 --> 00:45:32,680 Speaker 2: talking about.

Donald Log, Donald Log, who has been on there 892 00:46:20,640 --> 00:46:23,080 Speaker 2: for quite a while, a guy I run into Afghan 893 00:46:23,160 --> 00:46:25,520 Speaker 2: Wig shows uh if you ever want to do uh 894 00:46:26,080 --> 00:46:29,000 Speaker 2: bow down and bay homage to his fantastic you know 895 00:46:29,040 --> 00:46:32,080 Speaker 2: he was the uh the cab driver on all those ads. 896 00:46:32,160 --> 00:46:36,080 Speaker 2: Ye Jimmy, Yeah, anytime we get Jimmy into. 897 00:46:37,600 --> 00:46:42,320 Speaker 3: Right TV sabotage, that's great. 898 00:46:43,120 --> 00:46:45,640 Speaker 2: So going back to all his MTV, he and Greg 899 00:46:45,719 --> 00:46:48,759 Speaker 2: Dooley the late singer of the Afghan Whigs. They they 900 00:46:48,760 --> 00:46:52,040 Speaker 2: would do one hundred and twenty minutes together sometimes and whatever. 901 00:46:52,200 --> 00:46:55,680 Speaker 2: So usually shows in LA He's one of the guys 902 00:46:55,680 --> 00:46:58,560 Speaker 2: that you won't be able to say hello to uh 903 00:46:58,920 --> 00:47:00,600 Speaker 2: as you're wandering around. So it's kind of cool. 904 00:47:01,400 --> 00:47:05,880 Speaker 3: The the fact of is is we've got Major League 905 00:47:06,200 --> 00:47:08,680 Speaker 3: Baseball and we got Double Italian Open going on. So 906 00:47:08,680 --> 00:47:09,400 Speaker 3: at least we have that. 907 00:47:09,719 --> 00:47:10,920 Speaker 2: Well I could see it in stereo. 908 00:47:10,960 --> 00:47:12,400 Speaker 3: That's good. This is where the Ryder Cup's going to 909 00:47:12,440 --> 00:47:14,480 Speaker 3: be played, by the way, just so so in September, 910 00:47:14,520 --> 00:47:16,439 Speaker 3: this is the course where the Ryder Couple will be played. 911 00:47:16,520 --> 00:47:19,320 Speaker 2: Got to get a few more people in the stands. Yeah, 912 00:47:19,560 --> 00:47:22,759 Speaker 2: a little empty here on a Sunday by Carbon Dan 913 00:47:22,800 --> 00:47:25,400 Speaker 2: Byer with you here Fox Sports Sunday, Fox Sports Radio. 914 00:47:25,440 --> 00:47:27,799 Speaker 2: We're gonna do some fantasy football coming up in a 915 00:47:27,800 --> 00:47:30,800 Speaker 2: little bit right, talk about the rookies and and potential 916 00:47:30,880 --> 00:47:34,200 Speaker 2: impacts and chaos being caused by the draft that we 917 00:47:34,360 --> 00:47:36,799 Speaker 2: just had. Later on this hour, as we always do, 918 00:47:36,880 --> 00:47:40,759 Speaker 2: we'll get the family together, but we're talking about brand recognition, 919 00:47:40,920 --> 00:47:45,040 Speaker 2: brand equity. In the car yesterday, you're bopping around the dial. 920 00:47:45,080 --> 00:47:47,680 Speaker 2: I heard you know a quick note Steve Hartman, who 921 00:47:47,680 --> 00:47:52,120 Speaker 2: will follow us here on Fox Sports Sunday, he and 922 00:47:52,200 --> 00:47:54,960 Speaker 2: Rich Rberger getting into like a little bit of the 923 00:47:55,000 --> 00:47:58,360 Speaker 2: brand when you talk about America's team, you know, and 924 00:47:58,440 --> 00:48:01,319 Speaker 2: then the Cowboys and and things of that nature. I 925 00:48:01,320 --> 00:48:05,320 Speaker 2: think Andy Furman referenced it this morning, right, the random 926 00:48:05,360 --> 00:48:07,799 Speaker 2: times that I actually catch a minute or two of 927 00:48:07,840 --> 00:48:10,440 Speaker 2: what we're doing when we're not processing our own stuff, 928 00:48:10,640 --> 00:48:13,759 Speaker 2: but just there there's a weight that goes to it, 929 00:48:13,840 --> 00:48:17,640 Speaker 2: much like you on on the sixth hole. That it's 930 00:48:17,760 --> 00:48:20,799 Speaker 2: that it's a little different, right, because every move is 931 00:48:20,800 --> 00:48:23,360 Speaker 2: scrutinized every and Jerry Jones showed up in the Kentucky 932 00:48:23,400 --> 00:48:26,560 Speaker 2: Derby coverage right because one of his buddies had a 933 00:48:26,600 --> 00:48:29,040 Speaker 2: horse running, so it was a here's my pick, and 934 00:48:29,080 --> 00:48:31,759 Speaker 2: then he went on a monologue about the family and 935 00:48:31,800 --> 00:48:33,800 Speaker 2: all of this stuff was a grey it's a beautiful 936 00:48:33,880 --> 00:48:37,600 Speaker 2: look at a horse. But the idea that you you 937 00:48:37,800 --> 00:48:41,440 Speaker 2: go into these circumstances, you go into the playoffs, and 938 00:48:42,080 --> 00:48:44,680 Speaker 2: let's face it, a lot of narratives around the fact 939 00:48:45,160 --> 00:48:47,880 Speaker 2: that we've got the big brands available. You got the 940 00:48:47,880 --> 00:48:50,960 Speaker 2: Warriors who are a brand because of the decade no 941 00:48:51,120 --> 00:48:54,920 Speaker 2: disrespect to Nate Thurman or run TMC, but it's all 942 00:48:54,960 --> 00:49:00,600 Speaker 2: about this era and Clay and Steph Draymond, and they 943 00:49:00,600 --> 00:49:04,120 Speaker 2: are the four horsemen in this process. So you've got them. 944 00:49:04,160 --> 00:49:07,200 Speaker 2: So there's some hate watching that goes through, but certainly 945 00:49:07,320 --> 00:49:10,640 Speaker 2: the appreciation for what they've been able to do the 946 00:49:10,719 --> 00:49:13,799 Speaker 2: last decade. You got the Laker brand up until what 947 00:49:14,239 --> 00:49:18,279 Speaker 2: seven years ago was every other year they were represented 948 00:49:18,360 --> 00:49:22,520 Speaker 2: in the finals until they had that drought, and now 949 00:49:22,560 --> 00:49:25,359 Speaker 2: you have this run. You've got an iconic player in 950 00:49:25,440 --> 00:49:30,040 Speaker 2: Lebron James, the great expectations of what Anthony Davis is 951 00:49:30,080 --> 00:49:32,719 Speaker 2: when he's at his best. So you've got those. On 952 00:49:32,800 --> 00:49:36,359 Speaker 2: the other coast, you've got the Celtics legacy team. You've 953 00:49:36,400 --> 00:49:40,680 Speaker 2: got the Sixers where there's some legacy, some history and 954 00:49:40,800 --> 00:49:44,360 Speaker 2: respect for what they've been go back to Moses Malone, 955 00:49:44,480 --> 00:49:48,600 Speaker 2: Doctor J go to Charles Barkley's career, Alan Iverson, You've 956 00:49:48,600 --> 00:49:51,320 Speaker 2: got to the Luminaries, and then you've got the Knicks. 957 00:49:52,200 --> 00:49:55,359 Speaker 2: Now it's been fifty years since they won anything, but 958 00:49:55,400 --> 00:49:58,400 Speaker 2: there's still a respect for the place that is Madison 959 00:49:58,440 --> 00:50:01,480 Speaker 2: Square Garden, one of the greatest concerts ever but for 960 00:50:01,600 --> 00:50:06,799 Speaker 2: basketball hasn't necessarily been the same level of excitement. But 961 00:50:07,719 --> 00:50:11,080 Speaker 2: it's a New York squad. Jimmy Butler, my guy down 962 00:50:11,120 --> 00:50:14,759 Speaker 2: in Miami, my Heat that I predicted to run rough 963 00:50:14,760 --> 00:50:17,360 Speaker 2: shot in these I didn't think everybody would drop like 964 00:50:17,400 --> 00:50:18,399 Speaker 2: flies on that team. 965 00:50:18,440 --> 00:50:20,400 Speaker 3: He'll tell you what. The Heat, by the way, the 966 00:50:20,719 --> 00:50:24,560 Speaker 3: Heat are another team that's interesting when you're talking about brands, 967 00:50:24,960 --> 00:50:27,400 Speaker 3: like they have their own avenue that we can get to. 968 00:50:27,560 --> 00:50:30,960 Speaker 2: But but you talk about, you know, team recent history, 969 00:50:30,960 --> 00:50:33,640 Speaker 2: when you talk about Lebron James, you had the Dwayne 970 00:50:33,640 --> 00:50:36,359 Speaker 2: Wade era. Yes, you've got a guy in Jimmy Butler 971 00:50:36,400 --> 00:50:39,879 Speaker 2: who's become like a folk hero between selling twenty dollars 972 00:50:39,920 --> 00:50:44,160 Speaker 2: cups of coffee in the bubble and just the style 973 00:50:44,200 --> 00:50:47,480 Speaker 2: of play right he's always called the throwback kind of 974 00:50:47,520 --> 00:50:51,360 Speaker 2: guy and holding on to clinging to NBA pass. But 975 00:50:51,960 --> 00:50:55,000 Speaker 2: a lot has been made this season, I think rightfully so, 976 00:50:55,120 --> 00:50:59,080 Speaker 2: and certainly in these playoffs about the pendulum swinging and 977 00:50:59,120 --> 00:51:03,120 Speaker 2: officiating right Game one of the Lakers series, the huge 978 00:51:03,120 --> 00:51:06,719 Speaker 2: free throw disparity and a lot of chirping in the 979 00:51:06,760 --> 00:51:09,800 Speaker 2: post game. Game two is more equitable, and it's a 980 00:51:09,880 --> 00:51:13,680 Speaker 2: huge blowout win for the Warriors. Game three swings back 981 00:51:13,680 --> 00:51:17,279 Speaker 2: the other way. Thirty seven file shots sure for the 982 00:51:19,360 --> 00:51:23,840 Speaker 2: Lakers again, and we actually saw and they shot terribly 983 00:51:23,880 --> 00:51:26,200 Speaker 2: from the outside, but we saw the Warriors try to 984 00:51:26,239 --> 00:51:28,560 Speaker 2: go into the paint. And I joked about it last 985 00:51:28,600 --> 00:51:31,839 Speaker 2: hour where the broadcast on television even had the tongue 986 00:51:31,880 --> 00:51:34,960 Speaker 2: in cheek of yeah, a lot of aggressive defense by like, hey, 987 00:51:34,960 --> 00:51:38,880 Speaker 2: you know that's Anthony Davis's first fall, Like WHOA Okay. 988 00:51:39,360 --> 00:51:42,600 Speaker 3: Well, I think Warriors fans would would argue with Draymond Green. 989 00:51:42,680 --> 00:51:45,000 Speaker 3: They don't get the benefit of a lot because of 990 00:51:45,920 --> 00:51:48,359 Speaker 3: who he is and how much have we talked about 991 00:51:48,440 --> 00:51:51,680 Speaker 3: Draymond Green and previous history over the last couple of weeks. 992 00:51:51,680 --> 00:51:54,160 Speaker 3: But I think that last night it was an instance. 993 00:51:54,160 --> 00:51:58,200 Speaker 3: And again it's not is the NBA rigged sort of thing. 994 00:51:58,560 --> 00:52:00,440 Speaker 3: It's just sometimes the names of the front of the 995 00:52:00,520 --> 00:52:03,600 Speaker 3: jerseys get a little bit more love depending on what 996 00:52:03,640 --> 00:52:06,279 Speaker 3: it says at that time, and I think that the 997 00:52:06,320 --> 00:52:08,439 Speaker 3: Warriors benefit from that. 998 00:52:08,520 --> 00:52:11,040 Speaker 2: Well, we've always been used to the name on the 999 00:52:11,080 --> 00:52:11,960 Speaker 2: back of the jersey. 1000 00:52:12,120 --> 00:52:14,880 Speaker 3: Yeah, that certainly, that's always happened in the use. That 1001 00:52:14,920 --> 00:52:18,279 Speaker 3: has always happened in the NBA. But the name of 1002 00:52:18,320 --> 00:52:22,240 Speaker 3: the front of the jersey for and I even believe 1003 00:52:22,320 --> 00:52:25,120 Speaker 3: this right now. I believe that the Warriors brand is 1004 00:52:25,160 --> 00:52:28,560 Speaker 3: bigger than the Celtics brand right now for what they've 1005 00:52:28,560 --> 00:52:32,840 Speaker 3: accomplished over the last you know, eight years in winning 1006 00:52:32,880 --> 00:52:36,840 Speaker 3: their first title in twenty fifteen, the Warriors brand, to me, 1007 00:52:37,000 --> 00:52:39,560 Speaker 3: if you're ranking brands in the NBA, is second to 1008 00:52:39,640 --> 00:52:42,680 Speaker 3: the Lakers. I guess, I just I don't with the 1009 00:52:42,760 --> 00:52:48,799 Speaker 3: lebron in that Lakers uniform, it's still numero uno to me. 1010 00:52:49,280 --> 00:52:52,480 Speaker 3: But I would put the Warriors second when you're looking 1011 00:52:52,520 --> 00:52:56,000 Speaker 3: at brands in the NBA, and it's it's it's funny 1012 00:52:56,040 --> 00:52:59,680 Speaker 3: because you mentioned the old Warriors teams as well, and 1013 00:52:59,719 --> 00:53:04,600 Speaker 3: now you're talking about recognizable teams. It's it's similar to 1014 00:53:04,640 --> 00:53:07,799 Speaker 3: the Bulls in their right. I mean, there there was 1015 00:53:07,880 --> 00:53:09,839 Speaker 3: no bigger brand in the nineties than the Bulls. 1016 00:53:09,840 --> 00:53:12,880 Speaker 2: And I would rock stars. Yes, yeah, even if you 1017 00:53:12,920 --> 00:53:15,160 Speaker 2: hated them, you appreciated it was going on. 1018 00:53:15,320 --> 00:53:17,280 Speaker 3: I think, even on the heels of what the Celtics 1019 00:53:17,320 --> 00:53:19,080 Speaker 3: and Lakers did in the eighties and what they had 1020 00:53:19,120 --> 00:53:21,600 Speaker 3: done the you know, previous thirty years prior to that. 1021 00:53:22,239 --> 00:53:24,399 Speaker 3: For what the Bulls did in the nineties, they were 1022 00:53:24,440 --> 00:53:29,000 Speaker 3: the top brand. I would put the Warriors in that conversation. 1023 00:53:29,040 --> 00:53:31,239 Speaker 3: I'd put the Warriors in the similar conversation to what 1024 00:53:31,280 --> 00:53:33,960 Speaker 3: we saw with New England. What was New England prior 1025 00:53:34,040 --> 00:53:36,879 Speaker 3: to Tom Brady and then winning those Super Bowls. Sure, 1026 00:53:36,920 --> 00:53:39,319 Speaker 3: there was a nice little run with Drew Bledsoe and 1027 00:53:39,360 --> 00:53:42,880 Speaker 3: going to a Super Bowl. They miraculously made it to 1028 00:53:42,880 --> 00:53:44,760 Speaker 3: the Super Bowl in Super Bowl twenty and your Bears 1029 00:53:44,800 --> 00:53:48,480 Speaker 3: absolutely destroyed them. There wasn't a lot there. Warriors have 1030 00:53:48,520 --> 00:53:52,359 Speaker 3: had history, maybe more so than in more success than 1031 00:53:52,360 --> 00:53:55,360 Speaker 3: what the Patriots had. But to take it to the 1032 00:53:55,440 --> 00:53:59,719 Speaker 3: level where it's at, you know, to me is I 1033 00:53:59,760 --> 00:54:04,719 Speaker 3: think testament to Steph Curry really for because you do 1034 00:54:04,800 --> 00:54:06,440 Speaker 3: need to have that star power. And I would just 1035 00:54:06,520 --> 00:54:09,440 Speaker 3: look as far as Boston right now, Like Boston, Boston 1036 00:54:09,440 --> 00:54:11,840 Speaker 3: played in an NBA finals last year. They've got a 1037 00:54:11,840 --> 00:54:14,640 Speaker 3: star slash superstar in Jason Tatum depending on how you 1038 00:54:14,680 --> 00:54:18,680 Speaker 3: look at him. Jalen Brown is a star in himself, 1039 00:54:19,239 --> 00:54:21,880 Speaker 3: but it hasn't risen to the level of that. It 1040 00:54:21,920 --> 00:54:24,279 Speaker 3: hasn't risen to the level of Paul Pears, kg Ray 1041 00:54:24,320 --> 00:54:28,000 Speaker 3: Allen in those Celtics teams and so That's what's just 1042 00:54:28,040 --> 00:54:31,560 Speaker 3: so interesting is watching last night of Warriors Lakers, and 1043 00:54:31,600 --> 00:54:33,000 Speaker 3: we had said last week, this is gonna be the 1044 00:54:33,000 --> 00:54:35,320 Speaker 3: greatest series that we've seen in the NBA playoffs and years. 1045 00:54:35,920 --> 00:54:38,120 Speaker 3: Game one was awesome, Games two and three have kind 1046 00:54:38,120 --> 00:54:41,359 Speaker 3: of stunk competition wise, but it's still so great to 1047 00:54:41,360 --> 00:54:43,800 Speaker 3: see these two teams go at it. And when I 1048 00:54:43,840 --> 00:54:46,399 Speaker 3: looked at the Warriors, it's just like, yeah, like right 1049 00:54:46,440 --> 00:54:50,160 Speaker 3: now that that bridge logo has more power than the 1050 00:54:50,239 --> 00:54:51,000 Speaker 3: lepre con does. 1051 00:54:51,239 --> 00:54:51,399 Speaker 8: Well. 1052 00:54:51,560 --> 00:54:53,560 Speaker 2: I think when you get down to it, Dan, it 1053 00:54:53,600 --> 00:54:56,920 Speaker 2: becomes the all right, who who are you talking to? Like, 1054 00:54:57,160 --> 00:55:00,400 Speaker 2: you know, go to the old pole question as related 1055 00:55:00,440 --> 00:55:02,880 Speaker 2: to that, because then you start getting grabbing history and 1056 00:55:02,960 --> 00:55:05,600 Speaker 2: having pieces of it if you're talking about it right now, 1057 00:55:05,680 --> 00:55:07,959 Speaker 2: and the growth of the NBA game, and you grab 1058 00:55:08,040 --> 00:55:11,279 Speaker 2: the international and you grab where eyeballs are going. And 1059 00:55:11,320 --> 00:55:14,600 Speaker 2: I know, ratings are are a funny business and a 1060 00:55:14,640 --> 00:55:17,680 Speaker 2: tricky business and everything. They've been over A seven in 1061 00:55:17,719 --> 00:55:20,319 Speaker 2: this series A seven, and we joke about it when 1062 00:55:20,320 --> 00:55:22,319 Speaker 2: Steve de Sager is in with us during the week 1063 00:55:22,640 --> 00:55:25,759 Speaker 2: he will randomly bring up some different data points. But 1064 00:55:25,800 --> 00:55:28,200 Speaker 2: a running joke with Jason Smith and I is all right, 1065 00:55:28,239 --> 00:55:32,080 Speaker 2: what did Young Sheldon do on that night? You finally 1066 00:55:32,120 --> 00:55:36,600 Speaker 2: had an opportunity where a NBA playoff game beat Young 1067 00:55:36,800 --> 00:55:39,880 Speaker 2: shot there you go seven point three to seven point 1068 00:55:39,920 --> 00:55:43,240 Speaker 2: one and whatever eyeballs. 1069 00:55:42,840 --> 00:55:45,160 Speaker 3: New episodes of Young Sheldon as well as. 1070 00:55:47,680 --> 00:55:51,479 Speaker 2: Near the season final. Yes, yes, and I'll say this. 1071 00:55:51,520 --> 00:55:54,480 Speaker 3: You were you were mentioning earlier that you were in 1072 00:55:54,520 --> 00:55:58,680 Speaker 3: the car running around as well. I was two for 1073 00:55:58,719 --> 00:56:01,560 Speaker 3: the first uh about the first half of the first quarter. 1074 00:56:02,080 --> 00:56:07,040 Speaker 3: And you hear the crowd a lot better on radio 1075 00:56:07,120 --> 00:56:10,520 Speaker 3: on audio than you do on TV. The number of 1076 00:56:10,600 --> 00:56:16,680 Speaker 3: Warriors cheers like there's surprising, not surprising to the fact 1077 00:56:16,719 --> 00:56:20,960 Speaker 3: that there were southern or northern California fans or Warriors 1078 00:56:21,040 --> 00:56:24,120 Speaker 3: fans in a Southern California. We saw the Niners take 1079 00:56:24,160 --> 00:56:27,120 Speaker 3: over so far, but that is a Lakers arena. The 1080 00:56:27,440 --> 00:56:30,840 Speaker 3: upper deck is is Lakers, you know, locked in lower 1081 00:56:30,880 --> 00:56:34,360 Speaker 3: deck usually celebrities. But just the amount of Warriors cheers 1082 00:56:34,360 --> 00:56:38,120 Speaker 3: that actually heard on made baskets by them was surprising. 1083 00:56:38,320 --> 00:56:40,319 Speaker 2: Yeah. So a couple of things about the crowd. I 1084 00:56:40,360 --> 00:56:43,200 Speaker 2: saw a number of videos that have been posted showing 1085 00:56:43,239 --> 00:56:46,080 Speaker 2: what it looked like twenty minutes prior to tip off. 1086 00:56:47,200 --> 00:56:48,839 Speaker 2: People had not made their way to those seats. They 1087 00:56:48,840 --> 00:56:51,720 Speaker 2: were literally making announcements in the arena to say, please 1088 00:56:51,719 --> 00:56:54,399 Speaker 2: get to your seats. In other words, we're going live, 1089 00:56:54,480 --> 00:56:57,719 Speaker 2: people five TV show, where's the seat filler? Get them 1090 00:56:57,760 --> 00:57:01,000 Speaker 2: in there, Get them in there. Get have gone to 1091 00:57:01,080 --> 00:57:05,160 Speaker 2: a number of television tapings here in my early Los 1092 00:57:05,160 --> 00:57:08,320 Speaker 2: Angeles runs, and it's like, all right, you're on standby, 1093 00:57:08,360 --> 00:57:11,040 Speaker 2: Well that guy dip for the bathroom and we're going 1094 00:57:11,080 --> 00:57:13,359 Speaker 2: live in two minutes, so go sit there like all right, 1095 00:57:13,400 --> 00:57:16,360 Speaker 2: that kind of thing. So so that's part of the 1096 00:57:16,400 --> 00:57:18,920 Speaker 2: other the get in. And we looked at this Friday 1097 00:57:19,000 --> 00:57:21,320 Speaker 2: night as we were finishing up the show, Ryan Hollins 1098 00:57:21,320 --> 00:57:24,840 Speaker 2: in for Jason and get In was almost five hunder bucks. 1099 00:57:25,760 --> 00:57:29,640 Speaker 2: Wow huh, because think about it, it's been you had 1100 00:57:29,720 --> 00:57:33,120 Speaker 2: last series against Memphis. But otherwise it's a decade plus. 1101 00:57:33,120 --> 00:57:35,840 Speaker 2: And to your point about brand recognition, the ability to 1102 00:57:35,920 --> 00:57:38,960 Speaker 2: drive down the freeway or hop a one hour flight 1103 00:57:39,040 --> 00:57:43,480 Speaker 2: from San Francisco, Man Warriors fans certainly came out in droves. 1104 00:57:43,520 --> 00:57:47,480 Speaker 2: And it's again the appreciation of what we're getting to see. Right, 1105 00:57:47,520 --> 00:57:50,280 Speaker 2: the games may not be competitive like Games two in 1106 00:57:50,320 --> 00:57:55,240 Speaker 2: Games three from a purely basketball related thing. No, they 1107 00:57:55,360 --> 00:58:00,200 Speaker 2: stunk two blowouts. Ye, but you're watching Steph Lebron. You 1108 00:58:00,200 --> 00:58:03,720 Speaker 2: don't know how many times you're getting this yeah again. 1109 00:58:04,760 --> 00:58:07,560 Speaker 2: And it's you know, as a Bucks fan and something 1110 00:58:07,600 --> 00:58:10,040 Speaker 2: that we'll dive into. It's one of the things that 1111 00:58:10,600 --> 00:58:13,280 Speaker 2: you know, I'm worried about and what is life like 1112 00:58:13,360 --> 00:58:16,480 Speaker 2: post Giannis? You know, if you're a Warriors fan, I 1113 00:58:16,480 --> 00:58:19,120 Speaker 2: think they have a better opportunity to sustain it, but 1114 00:58:19,240 --> 00:58:22,160 Speaker 2: right now it is. It is pretty magical for what 1115 00:58:22,200 --> 00:58:25,080 Speaker 2: they've done and what they've put together to have that 1116 00:58:25,840 --> 00:58:27,600 Speaker 2: logo on that brand be where it is. 1117 00:58:27,960 --> 00:58:28,920 Speaker 3: Tip of the cap to him. 1118 00:58:29,000 --> 00:58:31,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, we're all lobbying for the next call in our lives. 1119 00:58:31,320 --> 00:58:33,760 Speaker 2: Hopefully you get a couple to go your way today 1120 00:58:33,800 --> 00:58:36,280 Speaker 2: as you're out and about On a beautiful Fox Sports Sunday, 1121 00:58:36,280 --> 00:58:38,320 Speaker 2: He's Dan Byer on Mike Carmen.

It's right, Get them on, 1148 00:59:59,000 --> 01:00:01,600 Speaker 3: get them over, get them in, Yeah, we're talking thirty minutes. 1149 01:00:01,840 --> 01:00:04,240 Speaker 3: That's what we aim for. Sometimes they're forty five. So 1150 01:00:04,280 --> 01:00:06,240 Speaker 3: if you got a twenty minute drive to work, you 1151 01:00:06,280 --> 01:00:09,160 Speaker 3: should be able to listen to an episode on the 1152 01:00:09,200 --> 01:00:11,400 Speaker 3: way home and on the way back and you're good 1153 01:00:11,400 --> 01:00:13,240 Speaker 3: to go. And so we try to do as much 1154 01:00:13,280 --> 01:00:16,000 Speaker 3: as we can in a short period of time. And 1155 01:00:16,040 --> 01:00:17,640 Speaker 3: that's what we're going to try to do. Right now, 1156 01:00:17,720 --> 01:00:19,960 Speaker 3: we'll have a bonus the kind of a bonus segment 1157 01:00:20,000 --> 01:00:22,960 Speaker 3: as we do here in talking about fantasy football. But 1158 01:00:23,040 --> 01:00:25,080 Speaker 3: we've now been able to kind of decompress from the 1159 01:00:25,160 --> 01:00:27,640 Speaker 3: draft that ended a little over a week ago and 1160 01:00:27,760 --> 01:00:29,960 Speaker 3: look ahead to what's happening in twenty twenty three MIC, 1161 01:00:30,320 --> 01:00:33,400 Speaker 3: And now we have a rookie class to start to grade. 1162 01:00:33,760 --> 01:00:36,320 Speaker 3: And I think that there were names that we thought 1163 01:00:36,520 --> 01:00:38,840 Speaker 3: we would see pick that were and that were picked 1164 01:00:38,840 --> 01:00:41,960 Speaker 3: in the first round, but we didn't know what situations 1165 01:00:42,000 --> 01:00:45,240 Speaker 3: they were going to be in. Now we do. Let's 1166 01:00:45,280 --> 01:00:47,520 Speaker 3: talk about rookies in the NFL Draft, And I want 1167 01:00:47,560 --> 01:00:51,840 Speaker 3: to talk about the first player that you that we 1168 01:00:52,000 --> 01:00:55,560 Speaker 3: heard name called a week ago Thursday, a little more 1169 01:00:55,640 --> 01:00:57,520 Speaker 3: than a week ago Thursday. That was Price Young in 1170 01:00:57,560 --> 01:01:01,640 Speaker 3: the Carolina Panthers number one overall pick, But really, how 1171 01:01:01,760 --> 01:01:06,080 Speaker 3: high is Bryce Young when it comes to fantasy purposes 1172 01:01:06,720 --> 01:01:09,120 Speaker 3: at the quarterback position entering twenty twenty three. 1173 01:01:09,280 --> 01:01:11,919 Speaker 2: Well, what's interesting is you've got the GM saying he's 1174 01:01:11,920 --> 01:01:15,280 Speaker 2: not necessarily gonna guarantee the starting job. I mean, the 1175 01:01:15,360 --> 01:01:18,360 Speaker 2: Panthers might be sending out the Instagram post with a 1176 01:01:18,360 --> 01:01:20,440 Speaker 2: picture of Andy Dalton like the Bears did it said 1177 01:01:20,520 --> 01:01:25,080 Speaker 2: QB one, Oh my goodness, that's where we're at. Now. 1178 01:01:25,120 --> 01:01:28,000 Speaker 2: Do we believe that he's going to find the field 1179 01:01:28,040 --> 01:01:33,640 Speaker 2: pretty quickly? Sure? But from a personnel perspective, and for 1180 01:01:33,720 --> 01:01:37,439 Speaker 2: fantasy draft, dynasty is a whole other game, right as 1181 01:01:37,480 --> 01:01:41,360 Speaker 2: we look at the rookie quarterbacks in particular, but for Carolina, 1182 01:01:41,400 --> 01:01:44,360 Speaker 2: there's just a lot of unsettled. There's guys that will 1183 01:01:44,600 --> 01:01:46,480 Speaker 2: think could be players. 1184 01:01:46,560 --> 01:01:46,720 Speaker 3: Right. 1185 01:01:46,720 --> 01:01:49,320 Speaker 2: You look at Marshall on the outside, a guy that 1186 01:01:49,960 --> 01:01:53,480 Speaker 2: flashes and did a few times this past year. Once 1187 01:01:53,520 --> 01:01:56,480 Speaker 2: you got rid of DJ Moore, once you got rid 1188 01:01:56,560 --> 01:02:02,040 Speaker 2: of Christian McCaffrey, like you got potential right that that 1189 01:02:02,080 --> 01:02:04,840 Speaker 2: you're looking at him to now that more has gone, 1190 01:02:04,880 --> 01:02:07,560 Speaker 2: I should say that that he's going to push forward, 1191 01:02:08,360 --> 01:02:10,960 Speaker 2: But you don't know right, it's a wishing, wanting and 1192 01:02:11,000 --> 01:02:14,760 Speaker 2: hoping and just installing a new quarterback doesn't quite get there. 1193 01:02:14,800 --> 01:02:17,640 Speaker 2: So for me, he'd end up as a back end 1194 01:02:17,760 --> 01:02:21,120 Speaker 2: too and then wishing, wanting, hoping that it pushes forward. 1195 01:02:21,200 --> 01:02:23,200 Speaker 3: Yeah, Like, of the top couple of quarterbacks that we're 1196 01:02:23,200 --> 01:02:25,640 Speaker 3: taking that we think could get significant snaps, and I'm 1197 01:02:25,680 --> 01:02:28,440 Speaker 3: not including Will Levis in here, but it is Stroud, 1198 01:02:28,520 --> 01:02:35,320 Speaker 3: Richardson and Young. Of those three, how would you rank them. 1199 01:02:36,280 --> 01:02:43,720 Speaker 2: I would think exactly that in order. Yeah, I think Stroud's. 1200 01:02:43,800 --> 01:02:47,800 Speaker 2: Stroud's I think going to get his one week one. 1201 01:02:47,840 --> 01:02:50,640 Speaker 2: There's I don't think there's any question there. With Richardson, 1202 01:02:51,040 --> 01:02:54,280 Speaker 2: as much talk as there is an excitement that he's there, 1203 01:02:55,040 --> 01:02:59,080 Speaker 2: I don't know that they force him if he's not progressing. 1204 01:02:59,080 --> 01:03:01,720 Speaker 2: And we'll see off Cea. Right, we're already getting into 1205 01:03:01,760 --> 01:03:04,440 Speaker 2: the buildings. He was joking about playing catch in the 1206 01:03:04,480 --> 01:03:07,000 Speaker 2: parking lot because he was excited to get into there 1207 01:03:07,040 --> 01:03:09,520 Speaker 2: on day one of OTAs. And it's cool, it's all 1208 01:03:09,560 --> 01:03:12,640 Speaker 2: the positive things, but all the questions that we had 1209 01:03:12,720 --> 01:03:16,840 Speaker 2: going into the draft or saying company in Ballard particularly, 1210 01:03:16,840 --> 01:03:19,360 Speaker 2: they got to get this one right. So forcing him 1211 01:03:19,360 --> 01:03:23,400 Speaker 2: into action week one. If if it's not catching up, 1212 01:03:23,440 --> 01:03:26,520 Speaker 2: I don't I don't see it. Yeah, long term, yeah, 1213 01:03:26,520 --> 01:03:29,240 Speaker 2: he's the guy. If I'm if I'm buying the stock, 1214 01:03:29,400 --> 01:03:32,800 Speaker 2: I think, all right, this guy could be based on 1215 01:03:32,960 --> 01:03:36,160 Speaker 2: skill set, based on you know, rudimentary skill set at 1216 01:03:36,160 --> 01:03:38,479 Speaker 2: this point. And that's not to diminish what he did, 1217 01:03:38,520 --> 01:03:42,000 Speaker 2: Like he had some huge moments, but it's inconsistent. But 1218 01:03:42,080 --> 01:03:43,880 Speaker 2: he's got all the physical tools to be one of 1219 01:03:43,920 --> 01:03:47,520 Speaker 2: those guys that becomes a stalwart. But I don't know 1220 01:03:47,560 --> 01:03:49,680 Speaker 2: that that happens overnight. No one crowds the guy. 1221 01:03:49,760 --> 01:03:52,560 Speaker 3: Yeah, no, one would be surprised if Gardner Minshew is 1222 01:03:52,600 --> 01:03:55,080 Speaker 3: the starting quarterback Week one for the Indianapolis Cults. I 1223 01:03:55,080 --> 01:03:57,640 Speaker 3: don't think that that is a surprise. I do think 1224 01:03:57,640 --> 01:03:59,720 Speaker 3: that we will see Anthony Richardson on the football field 1225 01:03:59,760 --> 01:04:03,800 Speaker 3: week I think that there will be packages and situations fortivity. 1226 01:04:04,040 --> 01:04:07,000 Speaker 3: The question is, then, how does that evolve, say to 1227 01:04:07,080 --> 01:04:11,200 Speaker 3: Week ten, Where is Richardson's involvement in the offense at 1228 01:04:11,200 --> 01:04:14,480 Speaker 3: that point, Where is the Colts season at that point 1229 01:04:14,560 --> 01:04:17,479 Speaker 3: in that division as well, when you've got a team 1230 01:04:17,560 --> 01:04:19,520 Speaker 3: like the Texans that are trying to build and who 1231 01:04:19,600 --> 01:04:24,240 Speaker 3: knows what's happening with Tennessee. Like we've joked about the 1232 01:04:24,280 --> 01:04:27,920 Speaker 3: in the Hunt graphic on TV at about week eight 1233 01:04:27,960 --> 01:04:30,520 Speaker 3: to week nine, when every team in each conference is 1234 01:04:30,560 --> 01:04:33,440 Speaker 3: put on the graphic of being in the Hunt except 1235 01:04:33,440 --> 01:04:35,920 Speaker 3: maybe one team that would have one winner, no wins. 1236 01:04:36,400 --> 01:04:38,480 Speaker 3: But if you're the Colts, the question will be of 1237 01:04:39,760 --> 01:04:42,800 Speaker 3: you know, when when does? It's not that are the 1238 01:04:42,800 --> 01:04:46,000 Speaker 3: Colts out of it that you play Anthony Richardson, because 1239 01:04:46,000 --> 01:04:48,320 Speaker 3: they could still be in it with Anthony Richardson. It's 1240 01:04:48,360 --> 01:04:50,600 Speaker 3: the question of how good are things going with Gardner 1241 01:04:50,680 --> 01:04:54,080 Speaker 3: Minshew that you are then willing to make the change 1242 01:04:54,080 --> 01:04:55,120 Speaker 3: to Anthony Richardson. 1243 01:04:55,280 --> 01:04:59,640 Speaker 2: Well, I would say from the Colts perspective, once he's ready, yeah, 1244 01:04:59,640 --> 01:05:03,400 Speaker 2: they'll you look at what the potential upside versus and 1245 01:05:03,520 --> 01:05:06,440 Speaker 2: we like Minshew, but generally he's a guy I don't know. 1246 01:05:06,560 --> 01:05:09,880 Speaker 2: Go back to the Ryan Fitzpatricks would probably be the 1247 01:05:09,920 --> 01:05:12,120 Speaker 2: app comparison is you get a couple of big games 1248 01:05:13,040 --> 01:05:16,640 Speaker 2: and then there's tape. There's the tendencies that find them 1249 01:05:16,800 --> 01:05:20,440 Speaker 2: their way back in. That's why he's bounced a couple 1250 01:05:20,440 --> 01:05:22,480 Speaker 2: of times and why he is here. But you look 1251 01:05:22,520 --> 01:05:26,440 Speaker 2: at Pierce, you got Pittman and obviously Jonathan Taylor if 1252 01:05:26,480 --> 01:05:28,280 Speaker 2: you get a full season of health. You brought in 1253 01:05:28,440 --> 01:05:32,320 Speaker 2: Zach Moss, a guy who I always wondered proper fit 1254 01:05:32,560 --> 01:05:36,680 Speaker 2: roll everything in Buffaloell that goes to Indianapolis. The division 1255 01:05:36,720 --> 01:05:39,560 Speaker 2: I think is kind of fun. Right Tennessee, they drafted 1256 01:05:39,560 --> 01:05:43,600 Speaker 2: nothing but offense, and we'll get into one of one 1257 01:05:43,640 --> 01:05:47,680 Speaker 2: of their draft picks being called boring and then still 1258 01:05:47,680 --> 01:05:50,160 Speaker 2: got his name called. So you could be boring sometimes 1259 01:05:50,160 --> 01:05:52,960 Speaker 2: as long as you're just good at your job now radio, 1260 01:05:53,000 --> 01:05:56,160 Speaker 2: you can't be boring. It might be entertaining. But but 1261 01:05:56,480 --> 01:05:58,120 Speaker 2: I think the division as a whole is gonna be 1262 01:05:58,120 --> 01:06:01,439 Speaker 2: interesting because everybody presumes jackson runs away in IDEs. Yes, 1263 01:06:01,880 --> 01:06:02,960 Speaker 2: that's necessarily the case. 1264 01:06:03,160 --> 01:06:05,200 Speaker 3: Probably, I don't know if Jacksonville is good enough to 1265 01:06:05,240 --> 01:06:07,720 Speaker 3: do that, but I do think that they will be 1266 01:06:07,800 --> 01:06:11,200 Speaker 3: on top of that of that division. So when we 1267 01:06:11,240 --> 01:06:13,320 Speaker 3: look at the quarterbacks, the reason that we have the 1268 01:06:13,400 --> 01:06:16,920 Speaker 3: quarterback conversation not that you're going to start CJ. Stroudwek one. 1269 01:06:17,080 --> 01:06:19,360 Speaker 3: It is just what do you do with Anthony Richardson 1270 01:06:19,400 --> 01:06:23,680 Speaker 3: really on your bench and how much value where do 1271 01:06:23,720 --> 01:06:26,480 Speaker 3: you take him? Because he could become a player later 1272 01:06:26,560 --> 01:06:29,520 Speaker 3: on in the season and become a fantasy darling if 1273 01:06:29,520 --> 01:06:30,640 Speaker 3: he gets that opportunity. 1274 01:06:30,720 --> 01:06:33,400 Speaker 2: Well, also from that, Dan, just the idea of all right, 1275 01:06:33,440 --> 01:06:35,200 Speaker 2: what does this mean if the rookies are coming in 1276 01:06:35,240 --> 01:06:38,920 Speaker 2: to guys you may have been targeting, Like, let's face it, 1277 01:06:38,920 --> 01:06:40,960 Speaker 2: it's not that you were running out a ton of 1278 01:06:41,000 --> 01:06:46,120 Speaker 2: players from these squads on your fantasy fosters last year. 1279 01:06:46,160 --> 01:06:50,000 Speaker 2: But Nico Collins a guy that showed up in stretches, 1280 01:06:50,520 --> 01:06:54,040 Speaker 2: So perhaps Damian Peers is he healthy this time around? 1281 01:06:54,080 --> 01:06:56,680 Speaker 2: What does it mean if the quarterback position is a 1282 01:06:56,720 --> 01:07:01,560 Speaker 2: little more stabilized and Davis Mills guy had some moments 1283 01:07:01,640 --> 01:07:04,920 Speaker 2: just inconsistent, which is why they moved off him and 1284 01:07:04,960 --> 01:07:07,440 Speaker 2: took their opportunity to say, all right, we've got a 1285 01:07:07,440 --> 01:07:11,080 Speaker 2: franchise guy. We might have a good quarterback, but you 1286 01:07:11,120 --> 01:07:13,600 Speaker 2: ain't winning without great consistently in this league. 1287 01:07:13,640 --> 01:07:17,240 Speaker 3: And by the way, I am taking Anthony Richardson as 1288 01:07:17,280 --> 01:07:21,720 Speaker 3: a backup quarterback before I would take Derek Carr, before 1289 01:07:21,760 --> 01:07:26,320 Speaker 3: I would take Matthew Stafford, before I would take there. 1290 01:07:26,320 --> 01:07:29,280 Speaker 3: I say, Geno Smith, rather roll the dice. You'd rather 1291 01:07:29,360 --> 01:07:31,440 Speaker 3: roll the dice with Anthony Richardson. Let's get to the 1292 01:07:31,520 --> 01:07:34,480 Speaker 3: running backs. Bijon Robbinson at his first name, see the 1293 01:07:34,480 --> 01:07:36,640 Speaker 3: first running back that should be taken of the rookies 1294 01:07:36,680 --> 01:07:37,240 Speaker 3: in drafts? 1295 01:07:38,960 --> 01:07:42,200 Speaker 2: Probably not? Yeah, Actually, well, I guess it comes down 1296 01:07:42,240 --> 01:07:46,000 Speaker 2: to touchcount, right, And that's that's where we're shifting focus 1297 01:07:46,280 --> 01:07:47,760 Speaker 2: for running backs. And I think you and I have 1298 01:07:47,800 --> 01:07:49,640 Speaker 2: done this on the podcast for a number of years, 1299 01:07:49,680 --> 01:07:52,880 Speaker 2: but I think everybody's starting to gravitate towards this because 1300 01:07:52,880 --> 01:07:56,560 Speaker 2: we're not expecting bell cows anymore. There's a handful of those. Now. 1301 01:07:56,560 --> 01:07:58,520 Speaker 2: It becomes a can I get the ball in a 1302 01:07:58,560 --> 01:08:01,720 Speaker 2: guy's hand? What fifteen eighteen times a game? And I 1303 01:08:01,760 --> 01:08:03,760 Speaker 2: got to think that they're going to be creative. But 1304 01:08:03,800 --> 01:08:07,280 Speaker 2: you have a crowded backfield of guys that were pretty good, 1305 01:08:07,560 --> 01:08:10,480 Speaker 2: and Algerra was just shy of a thousand yards. You 1306 01:08:10,520 --> 01:08:14,760 Speaker 2: look at Cordero Patterson, who still has a role. 1307 01:08:15,440 --> 01:08:18,479 Speaker 3: Desmond Ritter can run. I just don't know how much 1308 01:08:18,520 --> 01:08:20,479 Speaker 3: he like. I don't think it's going to be a 1309 01:08:20,520 --> 01:08:22,640 Speaker 3: part of their offense. And and you even saw that 1310 01:08:22,760 --> 01:08:26,559 Speaker 3: in the later parts there weren't there weren't extreme rushing numbers, 1311 01:08:26,600 --> 01:08:30,880 Speaker 3: but he at least can give you something in that offense. 1312 01:08:30,920 --> 01:08:34,639 Speaker 3: A little bit the I think Robinson will be number 1313 01:08:34,640 --> 01:08:37,479 Speaker 3: one just for the fact Mike of Jamiir gives this 1314 01:08:37,600 --> 01:08:42,760 Speaker 3: situation in Detroit with David Montgomery. Now there, I know 1315 01:08:43,200 --> 01:08:46,280 Speaker 3: Detroit was pumped to get him at twelve, But when 1316 01:08:46,320 --> 01:08:49,160 Speaker 3: you just see how DeAndre Swift and Jamal Williams were used, 1317 01:08:50,040 --> 01:08:53,639 Speaker 3: I think that you could see something. And I say 1318 01:08:53,640 --> 01:08:56,240 Speaker 3: this seeing something similar knowing that Jamal Williams and DeAndre 1319 01:08:56,320 --> 01:09:00,240 Speaker 3: Swift were viable fantasy options. But I just think, I 1320 01:09:00,320 --> 01:09:04,439 Speaker 3: just think I would rather be in Robinson's situation than 1321 01:09:04,560 --> 01:09:07,639 Speaker 3: Jamiir gibbs his situation right now, just because I actually 1322 01:09:07,640 --> 01:09:09,479 Speaker 3: think the Falcons are going to run him to the ground. 1323 01:09:09,760 --> 01:09:14,200 Speaker 2: Well, I think that it comes down to teammos as well. 1324 01:09:14,280 --> 01:09:18,240 Speaker 2: Right with Detroit, You've loaded up on wide receivers. You 1325 01:09:18,360 --> 01:09:20,000 Speaker 2: got a bunch of guys that need to get fed. 1326 01:09:20,800 --> 01:09:22,880 Speaker 2: I got one of your guys that's served a suspension 1327 01:09:22,880 --> 01:09:26,200 Speaker 2: to start things. But you know, you know, once Williams 1328 01:09:26,200 --> 01:09:28,679 Speaker 2: comes back, you look at I'm on ra same Brown, 1329 01:09:28,720 --> 01:09:31,120 Speaker 2: He's still counting the number of receivers taking ahead of him. 1330 01:09:32,400 --> 01:09:35,120 Speaker 2: You brought in it tight end, like you built this 1331 01:09:35,680 --> 01:09:39,479 Speaker 2: to make it go with Jared goff to give him 1332 01:09:39,520 --> 01:09:42,800 Speaker 2: one last big push. As much as you like the 1333 01:09:43,040 --> 01:09:46,640 Speaker 2: hey rough and tumble identity, no, no, you're throwing the 1334 01:09:46,640 --> 01:09:50,280 Speaker 2: football all over the yard is the identity. Whereas Atlanta 1335 01:09:50,520 --> 01:09:52,720 Speaker 2: we've seen it time and again. Yeah, they'd like to 1336 01:09:52,720 --> 01:09:55,280 Speaker 2: get a passing game going, and they will. Drake London's 1337 01:09:55,479 --> 01:09:58,280 Speaker 2: acquitted himself nicely, and in theory, Kyle Pitts comes back 1338 01:09:58,320 --> 01:10:02,040 Speaker 2: healthy and ready to go and do eclipse that quietest 1339 01:10:02,080 --> 01:10:04,760 Speaker 2: thousand yard season ever by a tight end we had 1340 01:10:04,760 --> 01:10:07,240 Speaker 2: a couple of years ago. But you've got a run 1341 01:10:07,280 --> 01:10:10,800 Speaker 2: game that's been highly effective. You got a lot of 1342 01:10:10,800 --> 01:10:14,280 Speaker 2: other things to fix. That part wasn't wasn't an issue 1343 01:10:14,280 --> 01:10:15,000 Speaker 2: for the Falcons. 1344 01:10:15,439 --> 01:10:19,559 Speaker 3: Uh. The Zach Charbonay splitting carries with Kenneth Walker, it's 1345 01:10:19,560 --> 01:10:21,920 Speaker 3: probably going to be a split Walkers who get the majority, 1346 01:10:22,920 --> 01:10:24,120 Speaker 3: but he was. 1347 01:10:24,240 --> 01:10:26,320 Speaker 2: It's enough to pick It's enough to blow it up 1348 01:10:26,360 --> 01:10:28,400 Speaker 2: a little bit. Yeah, and it's kind of like you 1349 01:10:28,439 --> 01:10:31,519 Speaker 2: were talking about Jamal Williams uh and what his role 1350 01:10:31,600 --> 01:10:34,800 Speaker 2: was and whenever you got that extra guy there, it's 1351 01:10:34,840 --> 01:10:39,000 Speaker 2: a it's enough to to submarines, you know, the and 1352 01:10:39,120 --> 01:10:40,800 Speaker 2: pull down that ceiling a little bit. 1353 01:10:41,120 --> 01:10:44,040 Speaker 3: Tou Lane's ty J Spears was drafted by the Titans. 1354 01:10:44,120 --> 01:10:46,280 Speaker 3: I think it also have some value. So there you go. Quarterbacks, 1355 01:10:46,320 --> 01:10:48,160 Speaker 3: running backs hit receivers. 1356 01:10:48,200 --> 01:10:50,040 Speaker 2: Later on in the show, we can do divide receivers 1357 01:10:50,080 --> 01:10:52,439 Speaker 2: a little bit later on plenty more and tight ends. 1358 01:10:52,479 --> 01:10:55,000 Speaker 2: Of course, there's a couple of guys that come into 1359 01:10:55,000 --> 01:10:58,240 Speaker 2: prominence as well, so we'll do that.

Nice to do it, I assuming they 1380 01:12:01,040 --> 01:12:03,479 Speaker 5: have them. Fell As the headline in this morning's edition 1381 01:12:03,600 --> 01:12:08,360 Speaker 5: of the Los Angeles Times, no shrinking at Man. That, 1382 01:12:08,479 --> 01:12:11,080 Speaker 5: of course a reference to the performance of Anthony Davis 1383 01:12:11,120 --> 01:12:13,559 Speaker 5: of the Lakers in Game three of the Western Conference 1384 01:12:13,600 --> 01:12:18,479 Speaker 5: semi Finals Saturday night, twenty five points, thirteen rebounds, three steals, 1385 01:12:18,520 --> 01:12:21,400 Speaker 5: four blocks, seven out of ten from the field, eleven 1386 01:12:21,439 --> 01:12:23,560 Speaker 5: out of twelve from the free throw line. As is, 1387 01:12:23,680 --> 01:12:26,840 Speaker 5: Lakers blew out Golden State by thirty one, twenty seven 1388 01:12:26,880 --> 01:12:29,200 Speaker 5: to ninety seven for a two games to one lead. 1389 01:12:29,680 --> 01:12:32,720 Speaker 5: Lebron James twenty one points, eight rebounds, eight assists for 1390 01:12:32,720 --> 01:12:35,599 Speaker 5: Golden State. Steph Curry had twenty three, but Klay Thompson 1391 01:12:35,720 --> 01:12:38,360 Speaker 5: was five out of fourteen from the field for just 1392 01:12:38,439 --> 01:12:41,960 Speaker 5: fifteen points. On social media, Golden State fans quick to 1393 01:12:42,000 --> 01:12:45,839 Speaker 5: point out the continuing disparity in pre throws in this series. 1394 01:12:45,920 --> 01:12:49,320 Speaker 5: Last night, Golden State twelve out of seventeen, the Lakers 1395 01:12:49,400 --> 01:12:53,960 Speaker 5: twenty eight per thirty seven. The Lakers have averaged fifteen 1396 01:12:54,240 --> 01:12:57,920 Speaker 5: more free throws per game in the series than the Warriors. 1397 01:12:57,920 --> 01:13:01,120 Speaker 5: In Game two of the NHL's Western Conference semi Finals 1398 01:13:01,160 --> 01:13:04,479 Speaker 5: Saturday night, the Edmonton Oilers What in Vegas five to one, 1399 01:13:04,760 --> 01:13:07,920 Speaker 5: CODDR McDavid two goals and it assist. That series tied. 1400 01:13:08,000 --> 01:13:11,360 Speaker 5: In one baseball Saturday night, the Los Angeles Dodgers one 1401 01:13:11,400 --> 01:13:13,559 Speaker 5: at San Diego two to one on a two run 1402 01:13:13,560 --> 01:13:15,840 Speaker 5: home run by Chris Taylor in the fourth inning.

Finally, Mike, this 1405 01:13:24,800 --> 01:13:29,519 Speaker 5: was kind of a throwaway earlier, but I thought I 1406 01:13:29,600 --> 01:13:32,800 Speaker 5: heard you say that you are the partial owner of 1407 01:13:32,880 --> 01:13:36,280 Speaker 5: an andre the giant jockstrap. Did I hear that right? 1408 01:13:36,439 --> 01:13:37,439 Speaker 2: That is right, boss? 1409 01:13:37,640 --> 01:13:39,240 Speaker 5: I thought that was a beanbag chair? 1410 01:13:39,960 --> 01:13:42,120 Speaker 3: What parts? What part of the jockstrap? 1411 01:13:42,960 --> 01:13:43,639 Speaker 6: Well, I don't know. 1412 01:13:43,760 --> 01:13:45,720 Speaker 3: I the waistbands like. 1413 01:13:45,880 --> 01:13:48,439 Speaker 2: Yeah, I left hip, we'll keep it clean. It's a 1414 01:13:48,479 --> 01:13:54,840 Speaker 2: Sunday morning show. But yeah, fractional ownership of a jockstrap. 1415 01:13:56,520 --> 01:14:00,320 Speaker 2: I got fascinated Wow, you training cards, artwork, all of 1416 01:14:00,360 --> 01:14:04,000 Speaker 2: these things like that. It's huge business and uh, investor, 1417 01:14:04,520 --> 01:14:06,040 Speaker 2: literally go ahead. 1418 01:14:06,120 --> 01:14:08,320 Speaker 3: A pair of underwear from Andre the Giant has like 1419 01:14:08,360 --> 01:14:12,360 Speaker 3: two hundred more investors and it just because there's more fabric. 1420 01:14:12,000 --> 01:14:12,920 Speaker 2: We all fit in together. 1421 01:14:13,000 --> 01:14:13,439 Speaker 3: That's us. 1422 01:14:13,680 --> 01:14:16,519 Speaker 2: No, in this case, it was the novelty. I didn't realize. 1423 01:14:16,800 --> 01:14:18,760 Speaker 2: I didn't much think that there was going to be 1424 01:14:18,760 --> 01:14:21,200 Speaker 2: profit in it. I bought a couple of shares for 1425 01:14:21,280 --> 01:14:24,800 Speaker 2: the novelty. But no, I do have pieces of Declaration 1426 01:14:24,840 --> 01:14:27,960 Speaker 2: of Independence and pieces of artwork by some of the 1427 01:14:28,520 --> 01:14:31,679 Speaker 2: classic artists. Maybe you know, or maybe if you don't 1428 01:14:31,680 --> 01:14:35,040 Speaker 2: care about art, you don't.

Uh, 1585 01:23:05,960 --> 01:23:09,679 Speaker 3: the Sixers grabbing Game one and Embiid winning the MVP, 1586 01:23:10,640 --> 01:23:14,479 Speaker 3: I think really elevated Sixers Celtics. Not that it wasn't 1587 01:23:14,600 --> 01:23:17,880 Speaker 3: elevated before, but I think that it brought more to 1588 01:23:17,920 --> 01:23:22,759 Speaker 3: the surface. You mentioned James Harden's, uh, you know, Jekyll 1589 01:23:22,840 --> 01:23:27,240 Speaker 3: and Hyde appearances in the in these games. That is 1590 01:23:27,280 --> 01:23:30,680 Speaker 3: added to it as well, but nothing tops Lakers Warriors 1591 01:23:30,680 --> 01:23:33,479 Speaker 3: for what we've had so far. No offense, Nuggets, suns 1592 01:23:33,560 --> 01:23:35,920 Speaker 3: in a mid my thoughts not about Nick heat. Just 1593 01:23:36,600 --> 01:23:40,120 Speaker 3: can't get into it.

Is that ebb and flow of trying 1606 01:24:14,400 --> 01:24:19,360 Speaker 2: to level things out for teams and trying to see 1607 01:24:19,479 --> 01:24:22,160 Speaker 2: how much you can leave history in the past. 1608 01:24:22,880 --> 01:24:23,080 Speaker 8: Right. 1609 01:24:23,439 --> 01:24:26,479 Speaker 2: Well, we look at an Anthony Davis some high moments 1610 01:24:26,479 --> 01:24:30,280 Speaker 2: when he was in New Orleans. You've got the championship 1611 01:24:31,080 --> 01:24:35,280 Speaker 2: in the bubble, which some folks will categorically dismiss while 1612 01:24:35,360 --> 01:24:40,960 Speaker 2: lauding other sports or other people that won circumstances you know, 1613 01:24:41,360 --> 01:24:45,160 Speaker 2: or dismiss injuries that play a part, like it all 1614 01:24:45,200 --> 01:24:49,200 Speaker 2: goes together, right, you win. However, the rules of engagement 1615 01:24:49,240 --> 01:24:52,679 Speaker 2: have been laid out, and if you hoist a trophy 1616 01:24:52,720 --> 01:24:56,280 Speaker 2: at the end of it all, congratulations, you survived and advanced, 1617 01:24:56,600 --> 01:25:01,559 Speaker 2: and again another survivor reference in whatever, whatever circumstance, So 1618 01:25:01,600 --> 01:25:04,800 Speaker 2: the Bubble Championship will always count. That might have taken 1619 01:25:04,840 --> 01:25:10,360 Speaker 2: more mental fortitude than anything else, but scheduling a layoff whatever, yeah, 1620 01:25:10,439 --> 01:25:12,400 Speaker 2: work to the Lakers advantage. Older guy has got to 1621 01:25:12,400 --> 01:25:15,080 Speaker 2: take some time. You don't get that here, James Harden 1622 01:25:15,120 --> 01:25:18,000 Speaker 2: who we allude to this guy who's in the historically 1623 01:25:18,080 --> 01:25:24,080 Speaker 2: some great regular season efforts, right, huge numbers, huge accolades, 1624 01:25:24,600 --> 01:25:27,360 Speaker 2: and then in the playoffs it's always been, well, he's 1625 01:25:27,400 --> 01:25:30,639 Speaker 2: tired or he's out of shape. He's not out of shape. 1626 01:25:30,680 --> 01:25:33,200 Speaker 2: He just run around like a lunatic forty minutes of games. 1627 01:25:33,439 --> 01:25:36,559 Speaker 2: He didn't suddenly take two days off between the regular 1628 01:25:36,600 --> 01:25:39,200 Speaker 2: season and the playoffs and suddenly put on forty pounds. 1629 01:25:39,360 --> 01:25:41,519 Speaker 2: And that's just not the way it goes. But many 1630 01:25:41,560 --> 01:25:44,400 Speaker 2: a weary minute will wear you down, which is why 1631 01:25:44,560 --> 01:25:49,960 Speaker 2: when you see Lebron James manage his minutes, manage the energy, 1632 01:25:50,000 --> 01:25:53,360 Speaker 2: get his teammates involved. That there's a science and some 1633 01:25:53,479 --> 01:25:56,280 Speaker 2: logic that goes with it. But for James Harden, for 1634 01:25:56,400 --> 01:26:00,080 Speaker 2: Joel Embiid, for Doc Rivers, there's the I want to 1635 01:26:00,120 --> 01:26:03,920 Speaker 2: see it before you fully dive on board. Likewise, the Celtics, 1636 01:26:04,280 --> 01:26:07,000 Speaker 2: right we come into the season, you got a coaching change, 1637 01:26:07,640 --> 01:26:10,840 Speaker 2: and now Nia Long was back on instant you know, 1638 01:26:10,960 --> 01:26:13,599 Speaker 2: social media. It's like moving, God, leave me alone already, 1639 01:26:14,120 --> 01:26:17,240 Speaker 2: he's got it. I don't care. But you've got that 1640 01:26:17,360 --> 01:26:21,599 Speaker 2: still swirling. You had rumors that Brown and Tatum weren't 1641 01:26:21,640 --> 01:26:25,439 Speaker 2: necessarily getting along early in the season. Got Marcus Smart, 1642 01:26:25,479 --> 01:26:27,880 Speaker 2: who's kind of a wild card in some of these things, 1643 01:26:28,000 --> 01:26:31,479 Speaker 2: both performance and temperament at times, or at least that's 1644 01:26:31,520 --> 01:26:36,040 Speaker 2: the outward outward perception of him. So you got two 1645 01:26:36,080 --> 01:26:39,960 Speaker 2: teams where it's they were waiting to see which one 1646 01:26:40,040 --> 01:26:42,920 Speaker 2: finally emerges and breaks through the past. 1647 01:26:43,080 --> 01:26:45,599 Speaker 3: You have more questions with the Celtics than I do. 1648 01:26:45,720 --> 01:26:48,559 Speaker 3: I am not concerned with Boston at all, and I've 1649 01:26:48,560 --> 01:26:50,760 Speaker 3: thought that Boston's gonna win the NBA title from the 1650 01:26:50,800 --> 01:26:53,479 Speaker 3: beginning of the playoffs, even though those those ripples that 1651 01:26:53,520 --> 01:26:56,640 Speaker 3: you talk about Joe Missoula in his first year. The 1652 01:26:56,680 --> 01:26:59,479 Speaker 3: definition of insanity, Mike is doing the same thing over 1653 01:26:59,520 --> 01:27:02,040 Speaker 3: and over again and expecting different results. And that's what 1654 01:27:02,160 --> 01:27:04,120 Speaker 3: That's what I feel like we get with James Harden. 1655 01:27:04,760 --> 01:27:11,360 Speaker 3: And I don't know, like if there's there's disconnect is 1656 01:27:11,400 --> 01:27:13,519 Speaker 3: not the right sort of word, but it's how do 1657 01:27:13,560 --> 01:27:16,559 Speaker 3: you go off for forty five without Joel Embiid and 1658 01:27:16,680 --> 01:27:18,360 Speaker 3: you know, shoot as well as you do, and then 1659 01:27:18,400 --> 01:27:24,040 Speaker 3: he comes back and it just is is completely uh 1660 01:27:24,720 --> 01:27:27,560 Speaker 3: just a one and eighty degrees. It's the opposite of 1661 01:27:27,920 --> 01:27:30,840 Speaker 3: what you had. And when you've got a player of 1662 01:27:30,840 --> 01:27:35,280 Speaker 3: that caliber that has not been able to come through 1663 01:27:35,800 --> 01:27:39,120 Speaker 3: in playoff situations and then all of a sudden does 1664 01:27:39,320 --> 01:27:44,120 Speaker 3: miraculously in one game and then disappears, I would I 1665 01:27:44,280 --> 01:27:46,000 Speaker 3: I don't want to say that. I would rather have 1666 01:27:46,080 --> 01:27:49,599 Speaker 3: someone who's just consistent, because I'm then saying, all right, 1667 01:27:49,880 --> 01:27:52,240 Speaker 3: somebody's giving me twenty a game, which of course that 1668 01:27:52,320 --> 01:27:55,320 Speaker 3: you would take. But there's there is some sort of 1669 01:27:55,800 --> 01:28:01,360 Speaker 3: there's some sort of disconnect where and I and I 1670 01:28:01,400 --> 01:28:05,439 Speaker 3: hope this makes sense, but Harden is so entrenched as 1671 01:28:05,520 --> 01:28:09,439 Speaker 3: the number two that I think it's difficult for threes 1672 01:28:09,520 --> 01:28:12,160 Speaker 3: and fours to pick up the slack. So if you 1673 01:28:12,200 --> 01:28:16,799 Speaker 3: don't have your two, then everything else kind of falls. 1674 01:28:16,840 --> 01:28:21,599 Speaker 3: Like how does Tyree Smacksy know when to take over? 1675 01:28:22,360 --> 01:28:25,559 Speaker 3: And is James Harden willing to let Tyree Smacksy become 1676 01:28:26,000 --> 01:28:27,960 Speaker 3: the number two for the game that he's not going 1677 01:28:28,000 --> 01:28:30,800 Speaker 3: to be there, like I guess in short, what I'm 1678 01:28:30,840 --> 01:28:33,840 Speaker 3: saying is James Harden's got to get his And I 1679 01:28:33,880 --> 01:28:36,519 Speaker 3: think that all that trickle down effect ends up hurting 1680 01:28:36,560 --> 01:28:39,760 Speaker 3: other spots, Like you take the Bucks for example, who 1681 01:28:39,760 --> 01:28:41,800 Speaker 3: are out of the playoffs. But it's the closest where 1682 01:28:42,479 --> 01:28:46,040 Speaker 3: two and three there's a gap from one of Giannis 1683 01:28:46,040 --> 01:28:49,080 Speaker 3: with Middleton and Drew Holliday and you can kind of 1684 01:28:49,120 --> 01:28:52,400 Speaker 3: interchange them and you know, we've seen Middleton go off, 1685 01:28:52,439 --> 01:28:56,080 Speaker 3: We've seen through holiday of great games and it doesn't 1686 01:28:56,080 --> 01:28:59,680 Speaker 3: matter one picks up for the other. With the Celtics, 1687 01:28:59,680 --> 01:29:02,080 Speaker 3: like I feel like it's all right. You know Embiid 1688 01:29:02,080 --> 01:29:06,960 Speaker 3: eats first, Harden eats second, then you know Max he 1689 01:29:07,000 --> 01:29:09,800 Speaker 3: eats third. To buy it, like you go in that 1690 01:29:09,920 --> 01:29:13,680 Speaker 3: sort of order, and when James Harden isn't doing what 1691 01:29:13,720 --> 01:29:16,040 Speaker 3: he's doing. It's difficult for the other guys because they're 1692 01:29:16,040 --> 01:29:19,320 Speaker 3: only used to so much, you know, and PJ Tucker's 1693 01:29:19,320 --> 01:29:21,439 Speaker 3: on the floor and PJ Tucker is there to not score, 1694 01:29:22,680 --> 01:29:24,920 Speaker 3: hasn't for years. I mean, if he gets you a 1695 01:29:24,960 --> 01:29:27,880 Speaker 3: couple of buckets, great, but it's just I just wonder 1696 01:29:27,920 --> 01:29:32,479 Speaker 3: if that takes out of it, Mike of why they 1697 01:29:32,680 --> 01:29:34,479 Speaker 3: like the Sixers can't get over the hump, because it's 1698 01:29:34,479 --> 01:29:37,360 Speaker 3: the it's the same thing that we keep on seeing 1699 01:29:37,400 --> 01:29:41,040 Speaker 3: in James Harden not appearing in the playoffs is just 1700 01:29:41,560 --> 01:29:43,719 Speaker 3: now a common sort of thing, which makes the game 1701 01:29:43,760 --> 01:29:46,920 Speaker 3: won almost the exception to the rule when it comes 1702 01:29:46,960 --> 01:29:47,479 Speaker 3: to them. Yeah. 1703 01:29:47,520 --> 01:29:51,360 Speaker 2: Absolutely, And that's I guess we've come to expect just 1704 01:29:51,560 --> 01:29:56,200 Speaker 2: more of the ladder. So when Joel Embiid comes back 1705 01:29:56,640 --> 01:30:00,559 Speaker 2: and compromised, whatever the case is, right, playing some heavy 1706 01:30:00,560 --> 01:30:03,479 Speaker 2: minutes and some good basketball and stretches, but he's not 1707 01:30:03,520 --> 01:30:05,800 Speaker 2: one hundred percent, like he even said, it's like it 1708 01:30:05,840 --> 01:30:08,160 Speaker 2: should have taken me out four to six weeks. Now. 1709 01:30:08,800 --> 01:30:10,920 Speaker 2: It's part of that a little gamesmanship because all of 1710 01:30:10,920 --> 01:30:13,479 Speaker 2: these guys are doing it right in terms of well, 1711 01:30:13,520 --> 01:30:17,680 Speaker 2: I probably I shouldn't really be playing lower your expectations 1712 01:30:18,080 --> 01:30:20,360 Speaker 2: two weeks ago, I was campaigning, Hey, I'm the MVP. 1713 01:30:20,920 --> 01:30:23,440 Speaker 2: I'm hurt, and look what I'm doing. I'm a superhuman 1714 01:30:23,479 --> 01:30:25,160 Speaker 2: getting back out here when I'm supposed to be out 1715 01:30:25,200 --> 01:30:28,760 Speaker 2: four to six weeks. It's like Gyiannis, you know, with 1716 01:30:29,160 --> 01:30:30,719 Speaker 2: some of his cout. Yeah, it should be the MVP 1717 01:30:31,200 --> 01:30:34,559 Speaker 2: every week. The Hey, we could have made some adjustments, like, 1718 01:30:35,120 --> 01:30:37,280 Speaker 2: ain't the thing with the reporter, Like there's little things 1719 01:30:37,320 --> 01:30:39,599 Speaker 2: that he's showing you. Hey, it ain't all warm and 1720 01:30:39,600 --> 01:30:43,280 Speaker 2: fuzzy like the image that we've calculated for a lot 1721 01:30:43,320 --> 01:30:47,360 Speaker 2: of these guys. It's a little more nuanced, and certainly 1722 01:30:47,640 --> 01:30:51,160 Speaker 2: when we look at James Harden, we've got enough sample size. 1723 01:30:51,479 --> 01:30:53,639 Speaker 2: Yeah what he is in the playoffs? Now. The Celtics 1724 01:30:53,640 --> 01:30:55,920 Speaker 2: for me was just more the wasn't going to blow up? 1725 01:30:55,920 --> 01:30:57,960 Speaker 2: Well once you get to the playoffs and then the 1726 01:30:57,960 --> 01:31:01,280 Speaker 2: Bucks get eliminated and we see the flaws as you 1727 01:31:01,439 --> 01:31:04,479 Speaker 2: alluded to earlier in the show of each of these 1728 01:31:04,520 --> 01:31:09,040 Speaker 2: teams where there are some giant warts and giant holes 1729 01:31:09,120 --> 01:31:11,800 Speaker 2: in their respective games on either side of the bracket. 1730 01:31:12,320 --> 01:31:15,920 Speaker 2: That's like, yeah, they're they're the probably the best depth 1731 01:31:16,640 --> 01:31:19,280 Speaker 2: as it goes and they do have a situation whereby 1732 01:31:20,720 --> 01:31:22,840 Speaker 2: you know, Jason Tatum doesn't have to carry them on 1733 01:31:22,840 --> 01:31:27,439 Speaker 2: an Antonize basis. Oftentimes he's right one and two with 1734 01:31:27,600 --> 01:31:30,439 Speaker 2: Jalen Brown in scoring, and then it's a question of 1735 01:31:30,439 --> 01:31:33,200 Speaker 2: who's rounding it out from the starters or or you've 1736 01:31:33,200 --> 01:31:34,840 Speaker 2: got a deep en off bench that you've got a 1737 01:31:34,840 --> 01:31:39,519 Speaker 2: couple other guys contributing and having those opportunities so much 1738 01:31:40,600 --> 01:31:43,200 Speaker 2: so much better, the better than what we look at 1739 01:31:43,240 --> 01:31:45,679 Speaker 2: for the Sixers, because you've added to the coaching staff, 1740 01:31:45,680 --> 01:31:48,000 Speaker 2: because you also have Doc Rivers the outside of the 1741 01:31:48,400 --> 01:31:53,320 Speaker 2: aforementioned Paul Pierce, Kevin Garnett, Celtics got a lot of 1742 01:31:53,360 --> 01:31:56,240 Speaker 2: a lot of playoff questions on his resume. 1743 01:31:56,520 --> 01:31:59,639 Speaker 3: And it's not that James Harden has been completely absent 1744 01:32:00,520 --> 01:32:06,120 Speaker 3: in previous playoff appearances, but there is the forty five 1745 01:32:06,200 --> 01:32:09,360 Speaker 3: points and then come back with you know, you shoot 1746 01:32:09,360 --> 01:32:12,599 Speaker 3: thirty three percent from the field or what he did 1747 01:32:12,600 --> 01:32:13,680 Speaker 3: in these previous. 1748 01:32:13,680 --> 01:32:16,800 Speaker 2: Verse last what twenty eight or whatever it is. 1749 01:32:16,920 --> 01:32:19,320 Speaker 3: Yeah, we've seen that before. We've seen James Harden have 1750 01:32:19,360 --> 01:32:22,760 Speaker 3: really good playoff games. But what we haven't seen is 1751 01:32:22,880 --> 01:32:27,000 Speaker 3: James Harden, in the most meaningful games show up and 1752 01:32:27,080 --> 01:32:29,479 Speaker 3: have that sort of performance, and so then all of 1753 01:32:29,479 --> 01:32:31,880 Speaker 3: a sudden, Joel Embiid comes back and I'm sorry, just 1754 01:32:32,400 --> 01:32:35,920 Speaker 3: you're not. It's the league's MVP, you know, like you're 1755 01:32:35,960 --> 01:32:37,720 Speaker 3: the one that has to adjust. There's just some sort 1756 01:32:37,760 --> 01:32:39,640 Speaker 3: of disconnect where you would think it would make your 1757 01:32:39,720 --> 01:32:43,400 Speaker 3: job easier, but for some reason it hasn't. I still 1758 01:32:43,400 --> 01:32:47,320 Speaker 3: think Boston was going to win this series before we 1759 01:32:47,840 --> 01:32:49,880 Speaker 3: knew these problems were going to happen. But maybe we 1760 01:32:49,880 --> 01:32:52,519 Speaker 3: shouldn't be shocked that these problems are happening. And I 1761 01:32:52,560 --> 01:32:56,519 Speaker 3: expect Boston to win this series, even to win today nightcap. 1762 01:32:56,640 --> 01:32:59,960 Speaker 2: Later on, we've got the Nuggets and Sons. Sons took 1763 01:33:00,200 --> 01:33:05,559 Speaker 2: Game three with huge efforts from Kevin Durant, Devin Booker. 1764 01:33:05,960 --> 01:33:09,200 Speaker 2: Uh based on the current composition of that squad and 1765 01:33:09,640 --> 01:33:12,240 Speaker 2: all PEP talks, Chris Paul tries to give DeAndre ay 1766 01:33:12,320 --> 01:33:17,200 Speaker 2: and that ignored is that's the only way they can 1767 01:33:17,240 --> 01:33:21,280 Speaker 2: win again, right, is another monster effort by the dynamic duo. 1768 01:33:21,720 --> 01:33:26,400 Speaker 3: Well, if if that happens, they're not gonna win the series, 1769 01:33:27,600 --> 01:33:30,599 Speaker 3: and they're they're not if and and if Mike, if 1770 01:33:30,600 --> 01:33:33,200 Speaker 3: it happens and they win the series, They're not gonna 1771 01:33:33,240 --> 01:33:36,920 Speaker 3: go to the NBA Finals. It's just not it's not sustainable. 1772 01:33:37,479 --> 01:33:38,360 Speaker 3: It's yeah, they're not. 1773 01:33:38,560 --> 01:33:43,880 Speaker 2: They're a curiosity obviously Denver more depth. Jamal Murray is 1774 01:33:43,920 --> 01:33:46,759 Speaker 2: a guy that we've seen with some huge playoff efforts. 1775 01:33:46,800 --> 01:33:50,000 Speaker 2: He had you know, a dud the other night. Uh, 1776 01:33:50,160 --> 01:33:52,599 Speaker 2: he and Porter, but you've got other guys that pick up. 1777 01:33:52,640 --> 01:33:55,680 Speaker 2: Aaron Gordon uh for the most part, has been fantastic 1778 01:33:55,720 --> 01:33:59,280 Speaker 2: for for them in this playoffs. So, uh, we stipulate 1779 01:33:59,439 --> 01:34:01,200 Speaker 2: to that series is a big Denver wins it. 1780 01:34:01,640 --> 01:34:04,599 Speaker 3: Yeah, and when you look at what the Sons were 1781 01:34:04,640 --> 01:34:07,919 Speaker 3: able to do in Game three, and specifically just Durant 1782 01:34:07,920 --> 01:34:10,400 Speaker 3: and Booker, the question is is you pointed out of 1783 01:34:11,120 --> 01:34:14,720 Speaker 3: where does where does the extra come from? You know, 1784 01:34:14,920 --> 01:34:17,240 Speaker 3: is Cameron Payne the one that gives you fifteen if 1785 01:34:17,479 --> 01:34:19,240 Speaker 3: Chris Paul's out, you know, and. 1786 01:34:19,760 --> 01:34:22,800 Speaker 2: Well Chris Paul ain't coming back, I think you know, 1787 01:34:22,960 --> 01:34:26,200 Speaker 2: is he the one to do that? Unfortunately, that was 1788 01:34:26,240 --> 01:34:29,479 Speaker 2: another predictable piece of the playoffs. For all the injuries 1789 01:34:30,120 --> 01:34:32,240 Speaker 2: that we've talked about in the playoffs, there were a 1790 01:34:32,280 --> 01:34:35,520 Speaker 2: couple of guys you just put in that column saying inevitability. 1791 01:34:35,800 --> 01:34:37,720 Speaker 3: Yes, yes, and we're there. 1792 01:34:37,720 --> 01:34:40,639 Speaker 2: And it's not to disparage anything he's done in his career. 1793 01:34:40,880 --> 01:34:43,800 Speaker 2: We just have to be real about where he is 1794 01:34:43,840 --> 01:34:47,320 Speaker 2: physically at this point. Is basketball life. 1795 01:34:47,439 --> 01:34:50,160 Speaker 3: Doug brought this up on his Doug Gottlieb Show on 1796 01:34:50,200 --> 01:34:53,439 Speaker 3: Friday where I am during the week, and it was 1797 01:34:53,479 --> 01:34:55,240 Speaker 3: the do you feel sorry for Chris Paul? Do you 1798 01:34:55,240 --> 01:34:56,599 Speaker 3: feel sorry for Chris Paul? 1799 01:34:56,880 --> 01:34:57,160 Speaker 2: Why? 1800 01:34:58,240 --> 01:35:02,800 Speaker 3: No? Yeah, I no, I don't. Look. 1801 01:35:03,640 --> 01:35:07,160 Speaker 2: Life throws a lot of wrinkles at you, and unfortunately 1802 01:35:07,240 --> 01:35:10,360 Speaker 2: for him, come playoff time, come the end of seasons, 1803 01:35:10,640 --> 01:35:14,639 Speaker 2: physically the body doesn't respond. And if there was something 1804 01:35:14,720 --> 01:35:18,960 Speaker 2: that you could say, you know, the basketball gods have 1805 01:35:19,000 --> 01:35:21,519 Speaker 2: worked getting it's had a nice run. Is that a 1806 01:35:21,560 --> 01:35:25,520 Speaker 2: hell of a career. Yes, it's just unfortunate timing and circumstance. 1807 01:35:25,680 --> 01:35:28,400 Speaker 2: Do I feel, you know, sorry for him? 1808 01:35:28,479 --> 01:35:28,639 Speaker 4: No? 1809 01:35:29,400 --> 01:35:32,200 Speaker 3: I also think that Chris Paul is the level of 1810 01:35:32,400 --> 01:35:37,400 Speaker 3: player and he'll be in the Hall of Fame someday. 1811 01:35:37,040 --> 01:35:37,719 Speaker 2: Without a doubt. 1812 01:35:37,800 --> 01:35:41,560 Speaker 3: But he's the level of player that you aren't judging. 1813 01:35:42,040 --> 01:35:44,000 Speaker 3: It would be nice for him to win a title 1814 01:35:44,040 --> 01:35:45,599 Speaker 3: like I'm sure he would love to have a ring 1815 01:35:45,680 --> 01:35:48,360 Speaker 3: and you know, hold the Larry O'Brien Trophy. 1816 01:35:48,439 --> 01:35:50,599 Speaker 2: Yeah, he's on the Beach Boys. Wouldn't it be nice? 1817 01:35:51,439 --> 01:35:55,840 Speaker 3: Yes, But it's not. That's not def I don't think 1818 01:35:55,880 --> 01:35:57,400 Speaker 3: it's defining his career. 1819 01:35:58,320 --> 01:36:02,120 Speaker 2: Five years ago. Why when he was part of things 1820 01:36:02,160 --> 01:36:04,439 Speaker 2: here in Los Angeles, I think there was a weight 1821 01:36:04,520 --> 01:36:07,360 Speaker 2: to it. I think I think that lesson the older 1822 01:36:07,360 --> 01:36:10,080 Speaker 2: he got and the farther removed he got from the 1823 01:36:10,520 --> 01:36:12,160 Speaker 2: Lob City and all that fun stuff. 1824 01:36:12,240 --> 01:36:15,160 Speaker 3: Like it's looking back two years ago. It's funny to 1825 01:36:15,240 --> 01:36:17,880 Speaker 3: me that you could compare legacies and be like, Okay, 1826 01:36:17,960 --> 01:36:21,120 Speaker 3: Chris Paul or Giannis, someone's going to add this to 1827 01:36:21,240 --> 01:36:25,040 Speaker 3: their you know, to their mantle, to their resume. And 1828 01:36:25,160 --> 01:36:29,000 Speaker 3: now it's I mean, I'm sorry for all the greatness 1829 01:36:29,000 --> 01:36:31,840 Speaker 3: that Chris Paul has done. Like there's there's no comparison 1830 01:36:31,880 --> 01:36:35,920 Speaker 3: for what Yannis could do in this league and what 1831 01:36:36,000 --> 01:36:38,000 Speaker 3: he's done, and really what he did in that finals 1832 01:36:39,000 --> 01:36:42,759 Speaker 3: where Yanna stepped up and the Suns completely fell apart, 1833 01:36:43,240 --> 01:36:45,960 Speaker 3: the completely fall apart, but they're up to well, they 1834 01:36:45,960 --> 01:36:47,920 Speaker 3: played really good in the first two games and Bucks 1835 01:36:47,920 --> 01:36:49,719 Speaker 3: had him in the next four. It's just the point 1836 01:36:49,720 --> 01:36:53,880 Speaker 3: of if he leaves, if he leaves the game, with 1837 01:36:54,000 --> 01:36:57,760 Speaker 3: that resume. It's kind of similar to Dan Marino and 1838 01:36:57,840 --> 01:37:01,280 Speaker 3: the fact of Reno played, you know, got to a 1839 01:37:01,320 --> 01:37:06,160 Speaker 3: super Bowl and you know not never made it back. 1840 01:37:06,200 --> 01:37:07,559 Speaker 3: But the thing is, well, he made it. He made 1841 01:37:07,560 --> 01:37:09,920 Speaker 3: it to one NBA finals, And I think that that 1842 01:37:10,080 --> 01:37:13,000 Speaker 3: is how we look at you know, like that's fitting 1843 01:37:13,720 --> 01:37:15,880 Speaker 3: to me, Like it does. It's not an oddity to 1844 01:37:15,920 --> 01:37:17,920 Speaker 3: be like, oh that person ever played in an NBA 1845 01:37:18,040 --> 01:37:21,360 Speaker 3: finals or like that's so like, so I don't feel 1846 01:37:21,400 --> 01:37:23,080 Speaker 3: not only do I don't feel bad for him. I 1847 01:37:23,080 --> 01:37:26,280 Speaker 3: think that it's it's okay, like that's that resume is 1848 01:37:26,360 --> 01:37:28,439 Speaker 3: just fine because it's not going to be in the 1849 01:37:28,520 --> 01:37:32,519 Speaker 3: upper upper upper echelons of the of the honestes of 1850 01:37:32,640 --> 01:37:35,439 Speaker 3: the you know, the Lebron's, the you know, Steph Curry's 1851 01:37:35,479 --> 01:37:36,240 Speaker 3: and the stars of the sleep. 1852 01:37:36,280 --> 01:37:36,439 Speaker 8: Yeah. 1853 01:37:36,479 --> 01:37:38,120 Speaker 2: I mean, I'll take it to my own career. I've had, 1854 01:37:38,280 --> 01:37:41,360 Speaker 2: I think a hell of a run here in Fox Sports. Rado, 1855 01:37:41,400 --> 01:37:43,719 Speaker 2: you're talking about being here eighteen years.

Chris Paul hell of 1860 01:37:59,240 --> 01:38:02,080 Speaker 2: a career, a couple of million bucks. I think he's okay. Yeah, 1861 01:38:02,200 --> 01:38:04,000 Speaker 2: and he's on my TV every time they go to 1862 01:38:04,000 --> 01:38:05,000 Speaker 2: a commercial break. 1863 01:38:04,800 --> 01:38:06,640 Speaker 3: And he was on the Banana boat, right, he was 1864 01:38:06,800 --> 01:38:09,080 Speaker 3: one of the I thought, is he one of the guys?

But we're seeing, you know, 1906 01:40:08,120 --> 01:40:10,840 Speaker 2: little bits and pieces. And we had a German newspaper 1907 01:40:10,920 --> 01:40:12,800 Speaker 2: kickoff with one of the first things. 1908 01:40:13,200 --> 01:40:15,200 Speaker 3: Yeah it was. It was Patriots Saints it. 1909 01:40:15,160 --> 01:40:20,280 Speaker 2: Is Saints Patriots either November twelfth or November nineteenth. The 1910 01:40:20,400 --> 01:40:22,280 Speaker 2: German newspaper build. 1911 01:40:22,080 --> 01:40:26,519 Speaker 3: B I l d those games, those international games, and 1912 01:40:26,600 --> 01:40:28,759 Speaker 3: we know like half of the teams that are playing 1913 01:40:29,360 --> 01:40:33,559 Speaker 3: in the games because they've announced. We know obviously know 1914 01:40:33,600 --> 01:40:37,240 Speaker 3: the Jaguars. Oh ways, there are other teams. Those international 1915 01:40:37,280 --> 01:40:41,960 Speaker 3: games usually are announced in advance of the schedule. I 1916 01:40:42,000 --> 01:40:44,120 Speaker 3: have no problem with that. I do have a problem 1917 01:40:44,200 --> 01:40:49,320 Speaker 3: with the schedule leaking throughout the day of Oh the 1918 01:40:49,880 --> 01:40:52,519 Speaker 3: you know, the Packers will host the Bears on Sunday 1919 01:40:52,600 --> 01:40:56,960 Speaker 3: Night football in Week two, because you really don't know 1920 01:40:57,000 --> 01:41:00,600 Speaker 3: what's real or what's not real. And in fact, a 1921 01:41:00,640 --> 01:41:05,880 Speaker 3: few years ago, and I pride myself on not being 1922 01:41:07,200 --> 01:41:11,000 Speaker 3: not buying into fake accounts, someone did develop a fake 1923 01:41:11,040 --> 01:41:16,400 Speaker 3: account into a schedule release and just was putting random 1924 01:41:16,439 --> 01:41:20,760 Speaker 3: matchups and people were signing up. And I fell for 1925 01:41:20,840 --> 01:41:23,200 Speaker 3: it as well. I don't think I retweeted anything, but 1926 01:41:23,280 --> 01:41:26,840 Speaker 3: I did follow and the guy got done and he goes, yeah, 1927 01:41:26,880 --> 01:41:30,840 Speaker 3: this is all fake. This just shows how gullible things 1928 01:41:30,880 --> 01:41:33,360 Speaker 3: can people can be on Twitter. Just it was like 1929 01:41:33,840 --> 01:41:37,240 Speaker 3: NFL schedule leaks was like the Twitter the handle. The 1930 01:41:37,320 --> 01:41:41,519 Speaker 3: point being Mike is there's no there's no point for it, 1931 01:41:42,040 --> 01:41:47,240 Speaker 3: like there's there's I don't understand getting ahead of the story. 1932 01:41:47,800 --> 01:41:49,840 Speaker 3: I understand that you're trying to track it down, but 1933 01:41:49,920 --> 01:41:52,680 Speaker 3: this isn't something that is happening now. They're telling you 1934 01:41:52,680 --> 01:41:55,080 Speaker 3: something is going to happen later. So at least just 1935 01:41:55,080 --> 01:41:57,880 Speaker 3: just let the NFL have it, have it shine, and 1936 01:41:57,920 --> 01:42:01,479 Speaker 3: your point of doing it over several days, I don't 1937 01:42:01,479 --> 01:42:03,800 Speaker 3: even the NFL doesn't even do it right because they 1938 01:42:03,840 --> 01:42:07,400 Speaker 3: announced the schedule a release, but every team puts their 1939 01:42:07,400 --> 01:42:10,680 Speaker 3: schedule out at seven o'clock Eastern time, So that's all 1940 01:42:10,680 --> 01:42:12,799 Speaker 3: that you care about. You don't care about the schedule 1941 01:42:12,960 --> 01:42:16,320 Speaker 3: as a whole. Now, there are certain games you care about, 1942 01:42:16,560 --> 01:42:18,240 Speaker 3: and those are the games that we're going to try 1943 01:42:18,240 --> 01:42:22,240 Speaker 3: to guess. But I want to know who the Seahawks 1944 01:42:22,240 --> 01:42:24,320 Speaker 3: are playing and when. I want to know when their 1945 01:42:24,360 --> 01:42:27,400 Speaker 3: bye week is, and then I want to know, all right, 1946 01:42:27,400 --> 01:42:30,720 Speaker 3: who's playing on Opening Night, who's playing on Thanksgiving, and 1947 01:42:30,760 --> 01:42:32,640 Speaker 3: then maybe give me a couple of the you know, 1948 01:42:32,800 --> 01:42:35,200 Speaker 3: primetime games. But other than that, I don't care about 1949 01:42:35,200 --> 01:42:37,720 Speaker 3: everybody else. And so that's where the NFL needs to 1950 01:42:37,720 --> 01:42:39,400 Speaker 3: figure out a way to do this because they have 1951 01:42:39,600 --> 01:42:42,760 Speaker 3: made it into something you now have a special program, 1952 01:42:43,000 --> 01:42:45,000 Speaker 3: but you do have to present it to your point 1953 01:42:45,240 --> 01:42:47,040 Speaker 3: of doing it in a slow release, And I don't 1954 01:42:47,080 --> 01:42:49,599 Speaker 3: think that you should have leaks. Seahawks knew they were 1955 01:42:49,640 --> 01:42:52,120 Speaker 3: going to Germany, you know, a couple of weeks before 1956 01:42:52,160 --> 01:42:54,360 Speaker 3: it was announced. John Schneider even made you know, like 1957 01:42:54,560 --> 01:42:57,040 Speaker 3: a passing reference to it last year when they played 1958 01:42:57,040 --> 01:42:59,640 Speaker 3: the Buccaneers. So these teams do get a little bit 1959 01:42:59,640 --> 01:43:01,000 Speaker 3: of a head up on it. But I just I 1960 01:43:01,040 --> 01:43:03,200 Speaker 3: hate the leaks on it. I can't stand that there's 1961 01:43:03,200 --> 01:43:05,240 Speaker 3: no point. There's no point to it. 1962 01:43:05,320 --> 01:43:07,920 Speaker 2: Oh it's like even the draft stuff. Yes, if it's 1963 01:43:07,960 --> 01:43:09,840 Speaker 2: part of the coverage, like Jay Glazer, part of our 1964 01:43:09,840 --> 01:43:12,960 Speaker 2: coverage here Fox Sports Radio, he tells you as it's happening, 1965 01:43:13,240 --> 01:43:16,160 Speaker 2: this is where they're leaning. Boom, there's the pick, Like 1966 01:43:16,240 --> 01:43:18,479 Speaker 2: it's not all right, I'm gonna go to Twitter to 1967 01:43:18,520 --> 01:43:22,320 Speaker 2: try to wait thirty seconds till they bow the commissioner 1968 01:43:22,400 --> 01:43:24,040 Speaker 2: and he comes out on the stage. Who the hell cares? 1969 01:43:24,080 --> 01:43:26,040 Speaker 2: And Fox why follow all those? 1970 01:43:26,120 --> 01:43:29,040 Speaker 3: And Fox Sports Radio doesn't have the commissioner making the announcement, 1971 01:43:29,040 --> 01:43:31,600 Speaker 3: So Jay Glazier makes the announcement for it correct and 1972 01:43:31,640 --> 01:43:34,559 Speaker 3: then it's then it ends up being confirmed. But like 1973 01:43:34,640 --> 01:43:36,720 Speaker 3: there is, there is, it is a it is a 1974 01:43:36,800 --> 01:43:39,160 Speaker 3: TV show. If that's what you're you know, trying to 1975 01:43:39,200 --> 01:43:42,320 Speaker 3: get at, and that's I just I don't. I don't 1976 01:43:42,360 --> 01:43:44,200 Speaker 3: like it. I don't like the leaks. I like the 1977 01:43:44,240 --> 01:43:46,680 Speaker 3: schedule release. I get excited for it. But again, the 1978 01:43:46,720 --> 01:43:48,840 Speaker 3: first thing that I look at is my favorite team. 1979 01:43:49,439 --> 01:43:52,120 Speaker 3: I find out when my favorite how many primetime games 1980 01:43:52,120 --> 01:43:54,519 Speaker 3: they play, who they play, where they play, when the 1981 01:43:54,560 --> 01:43:57,479 Speaker 3: bye week is, and then I'll let everything fall into place. 1982 01:43:57,800 --> 01:44:01,400 Speaker 3: I don't think you need to be the Steeler Bengals 1983 01:44:02,000 --> 01:44:04,080 Speaker 3: October fourteenth, Yeah. 1984 01:44:04,560 --> 01:44:09,320 Speaker 2: October fifteenth. The Tottenham Hotspur Stadium website, they've got you know, 1985 01:44:09,360 --> 01:44:11,320 Speaker 2: the host of the London games. Yes, you've got the 1986 01:44:11,320 --> 01:44:16,680 Speaker 2: bills scheduled for October eighth. The Titans are listed, Yes, 1987 01:44:16,920 --> 01:44:20,160 Speaker 2: as playing on the fifteenth. That'll be my fiftieth birthday. 1988 01:44:20,320 --> 01:44:23,280 Speaker 2: I may be really drunk when I come in to 1989 01:44:23,320 --> 01:44:26,559 Speaker 2: do a show here on Fox Sports right now, or 1990 01:44:26,600 --> 01:44:30,000 Speaker 2: maybe I'll be watching the Titans overseas. I don't know. 1991 01:44:30,479 --> 01:44:32,599 Speaker 2: But one of the things we do always love to 1992 01:44:32,600 --> 01:44:37,559 Speaker 2: to try to predict. And again, as the schedule gets released, 1993 01:44:37,600 --> 01:44:40,040 Speaker 2: I know in each market, if you're in your timelines, 1994 01:44:40,080 --> 01:44:42,160 Speaker 2: everybody's trying to guess or they're trying to get their 1995 01:44:42,160 --> 01:44:44,640 Speaker 2: little bits confirmed, and you're piecing it together. That's all 1996 01:44:44,640 --> 01:44:46,120 Speaker 2: fun and exciting. If that's what you want to do. 1997 01:44:46,160 --> 01:44:49,320 Speaker 2: I'll wait until the full release and go from there. 1998 01:44:49,960 --> 01:44:57,040 Speaker 2: But it's the curiosity of Kansas City, the defending champs 1999 01:44:57,920 --> 01:45:01,479 Speaker 2: and who they will get to play in that opener 2000 01:45:01,880 --> 01:45:07,920 Speaker 2: home games obviously in Division Broncos, Raiders, Chargers, and then 2001 01:45:07,960 --> 01:45:13,640 Speaker 2: they have the Bills, the Bengals, the Dolphins, the Bears, 2002 01:45:14,000 --> 01:45:18,080 Speaker 2: the Lions or the Eagles. Doubtful we get a Super 2003 01:45:18,080 --> 01:45:18,799 Speaker 2: Bowl rematch. 2004 01:45:19,280 --> 01:45:21,000 Speaker 3: I would agree with that. I do not think that 2005 01:45:21,080 --> 01:45:21,559 Speaker 3: you will. 2006 01:45:21,400 --> 01:45:23,400 Speaker 2: See and they gotta be the Bears or Lions. 2007 01:45:24,040 --> 01:45:24,840 Speaker 3: I agree with that. 2008 01:45:24,920 --> 01:45:29,680 Speaker 2: So process of elimination, I'm gonna say Miami. 2009 01:45:30,600 --> 01:45:33,599 Speaker 3: You think Miami interesting. 2010 01:45:33,439 --> 01:45:36,000 Speaker 2: Well, because two will be healthy in Week one. Sorry, 2011 01:45:36,000 --> 01:45:38,599 Speaker 2: I had to do it. I had to do it. 2012 01:45:38,800 --> 01:45:42,240 Speaker 3: I don't think it'll be the Broncos, Raiders or Chargers. 2013 01:45:42,280 --> 01:45:43,439 Speaker 3: I don't think they'll do Division. 2014 01:45:43,720 --> 01:45:45,120 Speaker 2: I think it's one of those three games in the 2015 01:45:45,160 --> 01:45:45,479 Speaker 2: middle of. 2016 01:45:45,720 --> 01:45:49,120 Speaker 3: Yes, I agree the Bills, remember played last year on 2017 01:45:49,160 --> 01:45:52,679 Speaker 3: the road. They opened up against the Rams in spectacular fashion, 2018 01:45:53,160 --> 01:45:56,680 Speaker 3: destroying the defending Super Bowl champions. I don't think the 2019 01:45:56,760 --> 01:45:58,479 Speaker 3: NFL is going to make them do it again. So 2020 01:45:58,760 --> 01:46:01,480 Speaker 3: that leads it down to the doll Dolphins and Bengals, 2021 01:46:02,040 --> 01:46:05,439 Speaker 3: and I just think that they can't pass up an 2022 01:46:05,479 --> 01:46:09,559 Speaker 3: AFC Championship rematch, which we I believe that we have 2023 01:46:09,640 --> 01:46:13,840 Speaker 3: seen before. I know when the gosh I was just 2024 01:46:13,880 --> 01:46:16,920 Speaker 3: gonna say when the Seahawks went, but they opened up 2025 01:46:16,920 --> 01:46:19,040 Speaker 3: against Green Bay. But they played green Bay later on 2026 01:46:20,040 --> 01:46:22,000 Speaker 3: in the NFC Championship game. But I do think that 2027 01:46:22,040 --> 01:46:24,960 Speaker 3: we'll get a rematch of the AFC Championship game. I 2028 01:46:25,000 --> 01:46:28,120 Speaker 3: think it'll be Bengals Chiefs to open up the NFL season. 2029 01:46:28,439 --> 01:46:32,240 Speaker 2: Well vary on that one. Dolphins, I think there's just 2030 01:46:32,320 --> 01:46:34,519 Speaker 2: the juice of all right, we got to take them 2031 01:46:34,520 --> 01:46:38,040 Speaker 2: while we got them. Tyreek Hill, that's his former team, 2032 01:46:38,600 --> 01:46:42,360 Speaker 2: all those storylines, all the weaponry and everything that's assembled 2033 01:46:42,360 --> 01:46:44,720 Speaker 2: in Miami. You also still can have a bunch of 2034 01:46:44,760 --> 01:46:47,160 Speaker 2: Tom Brady rumors that you bring into Week one. 2035 01:46:47,720 --> 01:46:49,080 Speaker 3: All of those things. 2036 01:46:48,800 --> 01:46:52,040 Speaker 2: That you can squirrel around as part of your first game. 2037 01:46:52,320 --> 01:46:58,960 Speaker 2: Now Thanksgiving in Dallas, by the way, in Detroit. 2038 01:46:59,360 --> 01:47:02,160 Speaker 3: For all of you who have said the Lions should 2039 01:47:02,200 --> 01:47:06,599 Speaker 3: not play on Thanksgiving. Isn't this isn't this just so 2040 01:47:06,600 --> 01:47:09,360 Speaker 3: sweet for those that have said Lions stay on Thanksgiving. 2041 01:47:09,400 --> 01:47:13,200 Speaker 2: But I've been killed for years. Like when we watch Tradition, 2042 01:47:13,360 --> 01:47:16,000 Speaker 2: everybody cries about tradition and then they're out of the 2043 01:47:16,000 --> 01:47:17,400 Speaker 2: other side of the bouts like they need to get 2044 01:47:17,439 --> 01:47:20,559 Speaker 2: rid of the Lions on Thanksgiving Day. It's like, no, nope, 2045 01:47:21,240 --> 01:47:25,640 Speaker 2: no football. It's like pizza and that other thing we 2046 01:47:25,680 --> 01:47:28,360 Speaker 2: don't talk about on Sunday morning. Even when it's bad, 2047 01:47:28,360 --> 01:47:29,040 Speaker 2: it's good. 2048 01:47:31,680 --> 01:47:35,760 Speaker 3: The Lions being the prize team. Mike and I thought 2049 01:47:35,760 --> 01:47:38,160 Speaker 3: about this the Buffalo Bills. We just mentioned them as 2050 01:47:38,160 --> 01:47:42,599 Speaker 3: being a possible team to play on Opening Night. Remember 2051 01:47:42,640 --> 01:47:45,600 Speaker 3: the Bills and Lions ended up playing on Thanksgiving this 2052 01:47:45,640 --> 01:47:49,479 Speaker 3: past year. So what that means is you're likely to 2053 01:47:49,520 --> 01:47:54,080 Speaker 3: see the Lions play an NFC team in the in 2054 01:47:54,120 --> 01:47:58,040 Speaker 3: their game. So that would that will take out a 2055 01:47:58,160 --> 01:48:02,200 Speaker 3: variety of options, So you will not have Las Vegas, 2056 01:48:02,200 --> 01:48:07,360 Speaker 3: you will not have Denvers possibilities. But they host the Seahawks, 2057 01:48:07,360 --> 01:48:10,920 Speaker 3: the host Gee, they host the Falcons. I do not 2058 01:48:11,040 --> 01:48:14,080 Speaker 3: think that you are going to see the Lions have 2059 01:48:14,240 --> 01:48:16,960 Speaker 3: one of those three teams come to town. This is 2060 01:48:17,000 --> 01:48:20,360 Speaker 3: such a divisional game. With the Lions, you get the 2061 01:48:20,400 --> 01:48:24,320 Speaker 3: Packers a lot, You've gotten the Vikings in the past. 2062 01:48:24,800 --> 01:48:28,000 Speaker 3: But I think you're gonna get the Bears. I think yes, 2063 01:48:28,160 --> 01:48:31,760 Speaker 3: I think you will see your Bears against the Lions. 2064 01:48:32,520 --> 01:48:36,720 Speaker 3: Justin Fields that offense trying to go up against the 2065 01:48:36,720 --> 01:48:38,519 Speaker 3: Lions team that I think many will pick to win 2066 01:48:38,920 --> 01:48:42,440 Speaker 3: the NFC North. I think you're gonna get Bears Lions 2067 01:48:42,760 --> 01:48:44,360 Speaker 3: in game one of Thanksgiving Day. 2068 01:48:44,400 --> 01:48:46,639 Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm all over Captain Kirk to win that division. 2069 01:48:46,680 --> 01:48:49,000 Speaker 2: But we'll get into that as we get deeper into things. 2070 01:48:49,600 --> 01:48:53,679 Speaker 2: But yeah, that makes perfect sense many a Thanksgiving Neil 2071 01:48:53,800 --> 01:48:55,960 Speaker 2: ruined I e I went to the trough a third 2072 01:48:56,000 --> 01:48:59,120 Speaker 2: time in sadness after Barry Sanders ran, all. 2073 01:49:00,000 --> 01:49:03,080 Speaker 3: Well, you can maybe change those memories. You can have 2074 01:49:03,120 --> 01:49:06,599 Speaker 3: the opportunity. Maybe you're gonna have Justin Fields running down 2075 01:49:06,640 --> 01:49:08,639 Speaker 3: the field for eighty yards against the. 2076 01:49:08,600 --> 01:49:11,800 Speaker 2: Lions, because that's always the picture. I want my quarterback 2077 01:49:11,880 --> 01:49:14,719 Speaker 2: running coming. 2078 01:49:14,560 --> 01:49:17,840 Speaker 3: Up with a plan. It pled crazy game last year. 2079 01:49:17,880 --> 01:49:19,040 Speaker 3: Why not do it on things given? 2080 01:49:19,160 --> 01:49:20,839 Speaker 2: Let's get it on again. How about Dallas? 2081 01:49:21,000 --> 01:49:24,320 Speaker 3: All right, this is where it gets tricky because I 2082 01:49:24,360 --> 01:49:28,120 Speaker 3: don't think you're going to get two divisional games. It's 2083 01:49:28,120 --> 01:49:31,760 Speaker 3: not that Dallas couldn't play another conference foe, but I 2084 01:49:31,920 --> 01:49:36,360 Speaker 3: just you're gonna have to have the the network's lineup, 2085 01:49:36,400 --> 01:49:40,920 Speaker 3: and I don't think that Fox would even though you 2086 01:49:40,960 --> 01:49:43,880 Speaker 3: have a lot more cross division. You know, there's two 2087 01:49:43,960 --> 01:49:46,880 Speaker 3: NFC teams playing on CBS a lot. I think we're 2088 01:49:46,920 --> 01:49:50,760 Speaker 3: going to get an AFC team to face the Cowboys. 2089 01:49:51,640 --> 01:49:51,760 Speaker 5: Uh. 2090 01:49:52,439 --> 01:49:55,280 Speaker 3: You could have had some good options for NFC teams. 2091 01:49:56,000 --> 01:49:59,160 Speaker 3: You could have had the Eagles obviously in UH, but 2092 01:49:59,280 --> 01:50:03,280 Speaker 3: that's such a marquee game that it's not fit for Thanksgiving. 2093 01:50:03,880 --> 01:50:06,160 Speaker 3: The Lions actually go to Dallas, but if they're playing 2094 01:50:06,200 --> 01:50:07,960 Speaker 3: earlier in the day in Detroit, they're not going to 2095 01:50:08,000 --> 01:50:08,559 Speaker 3: be able to go. 2096 01:50:08,680 --> 01:50:11,960 Speaker 2: Yeah, only two AFC teams on the home slate. 2097 01:50:11,920 --> 01:50:16,960 Speaker 3: So you have say it you have Aaron Rodgers and 2098 01:50:17,000 --> 01:50:21,800 Speaker 3: the New York Jets, or you've got Mac Jones Bill 2099 01:50:21,880 --> 01:50:24,720 Speaker 3: Belichick in the New England Patriots. And I think that 2100 01:50:24,920 --> 01:50:28,040 Speaker 3: Jets Cowboys is actually going to be so marquee it's 2101 01:50:28,080 --> 01:50:31,839 Speaker 3: probably gonna be a Sunday night game Rogers in Dallas 2102 01:50:31,880 --> 01:50:35,320 Speaker 3: against McCarthy and the Cowboys. That's almost too good to 2103 01:50:35,360 --> 01:50:36,240 Speaker 3: put on Thanksgiving. 2104 01:50:36,320 --> 01:50:39,160 Speaker 2: Well, also you have the opportunity in that third game 2105 01:50:39,160 --> 01:50:42,679 Speaker 2: to put the Jets, yeah, in their own spot. 2106 01:50:42,840 --> 01:50:46,360 Speaker 3: Sure, perfect, absolutely great point. I have the Patriots and 2107 01:50:46,400 --> 01:50:50,040 Speaker 3: Cowboys playing on Thanksgiving. That's my because. 2108 01:50:49,800 --> 01:50:54,040 Speaker 2: When I think holiday happiness and getting the family together, 2109 01:50:55,000 --> 01:50:58,479 Speaker 2: I need some Bill Belichick. And there's still cachet when 2110 01:50:58,520 --> 01:51:01,880 Speaker 2: it comes to the Patriots. Yeah, I mean, and look, 2111 01:51:02,240 --> 01:51:04,240 Speaker 2: it's not like they've fallen off the map. They're just 2112 01:51:04,320 --> 01:51:07,720 Speaker 2: not what they want and we're so used to that 2113 01:51:07,880 --> 01:51:13,160 Speaker 2: level the excellence of execution.

People can buy 2249 01:58:27,920 --> 01:58:30,080 Speaker 2: in and out of shares, and then every once in 2250 01:58:30,160 --> 01:58:32,080 Speaker 2: a while someone says, wow, I didn't know that existed, 2251 01:58:32,400 --> 01:58:34,560 Speaker 2: and they try to buy it outright, and then you 2252 01:58:34,640 --> 01:58:37,320 Speaker 2: vote on whether you want to in or out. Well Mage, 2253 01:58:37,640 --> 01:58:43,800 Speaker 2: the Kentucky Derby winner fifteen to one odds was is 2254 01:58:43,840 --> 01:58:48,080 Speaker 2: owned by the fractional share company called Commonwealth, so for 2255 01:58:48,080 --> 01:58:50,240 Speaker 2: fifty bucks a share, it was as little as fifty 2256 01:58:50,240 --> 01:58:52,840 Speaker 2: bucks a share people could get in the payout. As 2257 01:58:52,840 --> 01:58:56,600 Speaker 2: I read Darren Ravel does sports business and has forever gokats, 2258 01:58:58,000 --> 01:59:01,800 Speaker 2: the payout was ninety four and change per share that 2259 01:59:01,840 --> 01:59:04,160 Speaker 2: you owned. Okay, so if you bought it at fifty bucks, 2260 01:59:05,360 --> 01:59:08,600 Speaker 2: then you nearly doubled your money off of the winning 2261 01:59:08,640 --> 01:59:12,600 Speaker 2: of this race.

Now, my brothers were invested in 2263 01:59:15,560 --> 01:59:18,240 Speaker 2: a couple of horses a while back, and part of 2264 01:59:18,280 --> 01:59:21,240 Speaker 2: it is learning the business because you get access to 2265 01:59:21,280 --> 01:59:23,600 Speaker 2: a lot of the training reports and everything else. You 2266 01:59:23,720 --> 01:59:25,520 Speaker 2: kind of see the ebb and flow, and that was 2267 01:59:25,560 --> 01:59:27,680 Speaker 2: one of the things that comes out and coverage of 2268 01:59:27,760 --> 01:59:31,760 Speaker 2: the Kentucky Derby of how invested the trainers are and 2269 01:59:31,800 --> 01:59:37,240 Speaker 2: these horses. We watched the owner of Forte You just 2270 01:59:37,560 --> 01:59:40,800 Speaker 2: nearly break down in tears kind of talking about this opportunity, 2271 01:59:41,040 --> 01:59:43,240 Speaker 2: but as much for the horse and the family and 2272 01:59:43,280 --> 01:59:45,680 Speaker 2: what it means to you know, the people that he 2273 01:59:45,760 --> 01:59:48,880 Speaker 2: works with there, and so like there's always just that 2274 01:59:49,680 --> 01:59:53,120 Speaker 2: I don't know, push pull tug tug of war kind 2275 01:59:53,200 --> 01:59:57,200 Speaker 2: of thing between the animal rights activists and the sport itself. 2276 01:59:57,360 --> 01:59:59,480 Speaker 2: But when it comes down to the brass tax of 2277 01:59:59,480 --> 02:00:03,440 Speaker 2: it all, they were paying in each month for upkeep, 2278 02:00:03,840 --> 02:00:09,200 Speaker 2: stall fees, feed trainer, you know who you're paying whatever, 2279 02:00:09,280 --> 02:00:11,680 Speaker 2: but you're getting the information and if they win races, 2280 02:00:11,680 --> 02:00:14,520 Speaker 2: well you get payout. Or if the horse gets bought, 2281 02:00:14,560 --> 02:00:17,360 Speaker 2: you get sure you know, gets claimed, you get your 2282 02:00:17,360 --> 02:00:20,120 Speaker 2: money back. Whatever. So in this case, people made nearly 2283 02:00:20,280 --> 02:00:23,920 Speaker 2: double their initial fifty dollars per share investment off of 2284 02:00:23,960 --> 02:00:25,760 Speaker 2: the Kentucky Derby win. And they could say, you don't 2285 02:00:25,760 --> 02:00:28,280 Speaker 2: I as part order of a Kentucky Derby winner. I 2286 02:00:28,280 --> 02:00:31,200 Speaker 2: don't think I think that's like in terms of saying 2287 02:00:31,240 --> 02:00:33,720 Speaker 2: I've got the ownership, I think that's about as much 2288 02:00:33,720 --> 02:00:36,960 Speaker 2: as a share of Green Bay Packers stock. But you 2289 02:00:37,000 --> 02:00:39,560 Speaker 2: at least have some finances that come back your way 2290 02:00:39,640 --> 02:00:40,320 Speaker 2: when it goes right. 2291 02:00:40,440 --> 02:00:42,560 Speaker 3: I just wonder, though, I don't know what Major's future 2292 02:00:42,600 --> 02:00:45,560 Speaker 3: plans are with the Preakness and the Belmont, but could 2293 02:00:45,600 --> 02:00:47,880 Speaker 3: there be an opportunity where then that value goes up. 2294 02:00:47,920 --> 02:00:50,720 Speaker 3: I mean, if you have a triple. Yeah, yeah, I 2295 02:00:50,720 --> 02:00:53,440 Speaker 3: think I'd stay in no, absolutely. 2296 02:00:53,120 --> 02:00:56,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, no, I'd have them reinvesting like stud fees 2297 02:00:56,480 --> 02:01:00,200 Speaker 2: and everything else. There's a lot off the bloodlines. 2298 02:00:59,640 --> 02:01:03,360 Speaker 3: With your partial ownership of Andre the Giants. Jockstrap, I 2299 02:01:03,360 --> 02:01:05,800 Speaker 3: think you need to put your Twitter handle as minority 2300 02:01:05,840 --> 02:01:07,080 Speaker 3: owner of it. 2301 02:01:07,480 --> 02:01:08,680 Speaker 2: I might add that to Maiah. 2302 02:01:09,040 --> 02:01:11,000 Speaker 3: Yeah, that is what I think needs to be on 2303 02:01:11,000 --> 02:01:12,800 Speaker 3: your tour and the declaration of independence. 2304 02:01:13,240 --> 02:01:15,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think that that one's better, although Nick Cage 2305 02:01:15,560 --> 02:01:19,520 Speaker 2: might not too sure. All right, No, the Jockstrap has 2306 02:01:19,560 --> 02:01:21,960 Speaker 2: far more catch. Ain't no question. He's Dan on my 2307 02:01:22,120 --> 02:01:25,720 Speaker 2: coming back. We'll get into the NBA playoffs in Arnest. 2308 02:01:25,760 --> 02:01:29,839 Speaker 2: Once again, greetings, welcome in. It is the final hour 2309 02:01:30,280 --> 02:01:34,560 Speaker 2: of the program, and this morning the Foodball gods have 2310 02:01:34,680 --> 02:01:38,040 Speaker 2: smiled down upon me. I can plain there was no 2311 02:01:38,160 --> 02:01:43,680 Speaker 2: early morning action on the pitch. No I had Kevin Malone, 2312 02:01:43,760 --> 02:01:47,440 Speaker 2: not with a bucket of chili, not with a bunch 2313 02:01:47,440 --> 02:01:51,800 Speaker 2: of jokes. No, he was a potential purp on SVU. Well, 2314 02:01:51,920 --> 02:01:55,480 Speaker 2: USA has now rewarded me. As we have Newcastle on 2315 02:01:56,160 --> 02:02:00,000 Speaker 2: against Arsenal here, as we move on here the Premier League. 2316 02:01:59,840 --> 02:02:04,000 Speaker 3: Is yes, huge match, Arsenal trying to keep pace with 2317 02:02:04,120 --> 02:02:09,800 Speaker 3: Man City and Newcastle should be okay. They got a 2318 02:02:09,840 --> 02:02:12,920 Speaker 3: couple of games in hand against on Liverpool who's in 2319 02:02:12,920 --> 02:02:15,400 Speaker 3: the fifth spot. But again, you don't win this, you 2320 02:02:15,400 --> 02:02:17,560 Speaker 3: don't get any points. You leave the door open and 2321 02:02:17,600 --> 02:02:20,920 Speaker 3: finishing in the top you know, maybe outside the top four, 2322 02:02:21,400 --> 02:02:23,440 Speaker 3: but big one for Arsenal. 2323 02:02:23,520 --> 02:02:26,640 Speaker 2: Right now chaos ensues. You know, me get it in 2324 02:02:26,720 --> 02:02:29,040 Speaker 2: between the lines and let's get it on. It is 2325 02:02:29,080 --> 02:02:31,520 Speaker 2: a beautiful sunday.

Traverse back into the 2344 02:03:25,800 --> 02:03:28,960 Speaker 2: world of fantasy football coming up in about twenty twenty 2345 02:03:28,960 --> 02:03:31,960 Speaker 2: five minutes from now. The wide receivers tight end some 2346 02:03:32,000 --> 02:03:33,840 Speaker 2: odds and ends coming out of the draft as you 2347 02:03:33,880 --> 02:03:37,840 Speaker 2: start putting your rudimentary draft boards together for twenty twenty three, 2348 02:03:37,880 --> 02:03:40,160 Speaker 2: because it is that time of year, Dan Bayer, but 2349 02:03:40,160 --> 02:03:44,600 Speaker 2: a couple of stories related to the world of basketball, 2350 02:03:44,640 --> 02:03:47,920 Speaker 2: and we'll start in the NBA. Mike Budenholzer, coach of 2351 02:03:48,000 --> 02:03:50,840 Speaker 2: the Milwaukee Bucks, much as we surmised a week ago 2352 02:03:52,960 --> 02:03:57,320 Speaker 2: we'd found out that he'd lost his brother, and that 2353 02:03:57,400 --> 02:03:59,480 Speaker 2: happened in the in the wake of their exit from 2354 02:03:59,480 --> 02:04:03,680 Speaker 2: the playoff and a lot of scrutiny about time out, 2355 02:04:04,800 --> 02:04:10,760 Speaker 2: roster management, substitution patterns, Yannis Antenna Kumpo even talking about 2356 02:04:11,360 --> 02:04:14,480 Speaker 2: some of what they were doing with Drew Holliday and others, 2357 02:04:14,640 --> 02:04:17,560 Speaker 2: you know, pretty pointed comments as much as you'll ever 2358 02:04:17,640 --> 02:04:20,360 Speaker 2: get or have gotten to this point from Yanna. So 2359 02:04:20,440 --> 02:04:23,280 Speaker 2: though the last couple of weeks he's been a little 2360 02:04:23,920 --> 02:04:27,919 Speaker 2: more brash. Now we had a Brian Windhorst to report 2361 02:04:28,040 --> 02:04:31,879 Speaker 2: that the Knicks are only ninety seven percent paying attention 2362 02:04:32,440 --> 02:04:34,200 Speaker 2: to what's going on with their series with the Heat 2363 02:04:34,200 --> 02:04:36,880 Speaker 2: because the other three percent is about Yanna's intended goople. 2364 02:04:37,040 --> 02:04:40,200 Speaker 3: Yeah, I think it's I think that the I don't 2365 02:04:40,200 --> 02:04:46,920 Speaker 3: believe that wind Horsts claim that Mark Lazry sold to 2366 02:04:47,680 --> 02:04:50,640 Speaker 3: d and Jimmy Haslam sold his share in the Bucks 2367 02:04:51,040 --> 02:04:56,160 Speaker 3: because he felt the Bucks were on a downward turn. However, 2368 02:04:57,280 --> 02:04:59,920 Speaker 3: that is why I think this Budenholzer move was made, 2369 02:05:00,400 --> 02:05:04,720 Speaker 3: not because of the ownership sale, but because of what 2370 02:05:05,240 --> 02:05:07,040 Speaker 3: is at stake for this franchise. 2371 02:05:07,360 --> 02:05:09,840 Speaker 2: It's a huge tipping point. Potentially, it is. 2372 02:05:09,720 --> 02:05:14,000 Speaker 3: An enormous tipping point. Mike and I compare it to 2373 02:05:15,080 --> 02:05:19,960 Speaker 3: the San Antonio Spurs who had their two basically two 2374 02:05:20,080 --> 02:05:25,160 Speaker 3: decades of top level basketball and to their credit, were 2375 02:05:25,200 --> 02:05:31,440 Speaker 3: able to even extend it throughout the throughout the years 2376 02:05:32,240 --> 02:05:36,600 Speaker 3: with the acquisition of Kawhi Leonard on Draft Night and 2377 02:05:36,680 --> 02:05:39,800 Speaker 3: how they were able to construct that team, and obviously 2378 02:05:39,920 --> 02:05:43,360 Speaker 3: Kawhi left and the team has not been the same since. 2379 02:05:43,960 --> 02:05:47,200 Speaker 3: I think that there are parallels with the Milwaukee Bucks 2380 02:05:47,240 --> 02:05:50,680 Speaker 3: in that aspect, because I don't think that the Yiannis 2381 02:05:50,720 --> 02:05:55,000 Speaker 3: decision is his cut and dry of returning to Milwaukee 2382 02:05:55,440 --> 02:05:57,720 Speaker 3: as maybe it seemed a few years ago when he 2383 02:05:57,800 --> 02:05:59,920 Speaker 3: signed his extension with the Bucks. At that point, Mike, 2384 02:06:00,280 --> 02:06:03,000 Speaker 3: he hadn't won an NBA title. They were the number 2385 02:06:03,040 --> 02:06:07,120 Speaker 3: one seed in back to back years and were ousted 2386 02:06:07,120 --> 02:06:10,840 Speaker 3: without getting to the NBA Finals. So Gianni's had something 2387 02:06:10,920 --> 02:06:13,160 Speaker 3: on his plate to try to accomplish, and it's not 2388 02:06:13,200 --> 02:06:16,960 Speaker 3: about joining a super team. It's just about I think 2389 02:06:17,000 --> 02:06:18,680 Speaker 3: Giannis is going to get to a point in his 2390 02:06:18,760 --> 02:06:21,240 Speaker 3: career just like Tom Brady got to a point in 2391 02:06:21,280 --> 02:06:24,120 Speaker 3: his career, wanted to see what life was maybe like 2392 02:06:24,160 --> 02:06:28,080 Speaker 3: somewhere else and to see what else is different in 2393 02:06:28,120 --> 02:06:30,960 Speaker 3: the NBA. It may not be joining the Golden State 2394 02:06:31,000 --> 02:06:34,000 Speaker 3: Warriors or the New York Knicks because he wants to 2395 02:06:34,040 --> 02:06:36,400 Speaker 3: be in New York or wants to play with Steph Curry. 2396 02:06:36,680 --> 02:06:39,560 Speaker 3: All those options could be on the table. It's just 2397 02:06:39,600 --> 02:06:42,120 Speaker 3: the fact of it's not a guarantee that he's back 2398 02:06:42,160 --> 02:06:46,320 Speaker 3: in Milwaukee. So the Bucks, and this is my opinion, 2399 02:06:47,080 --> 02:06:49,560 Speaker 3: the Bucks needed to do something with Botenholzer because you 2400 02:06:49,680 --> 02:06:52,240 Speaker 3: basically have two more years of Giannis before he has 2401 02:06:52,280 --> 02:06:55,600 Speaker 3: his player option, which he'll likely opt out then, so 2402 02:06:55,640 --> 02:06:57,080 Speaker 3: you have two more years to do it. Well. If 2403 02:06:57,120 --> 02:06:59,600 Speaker 3: you have another year of this, it's difficult to really 2404 02:07:00,120 --> 02:07:02,080 Speaker 3: lay your foundation and what you want to do in 2405 02:07:02,160 --> 02:07:05,280 Speaker 3: one season with a new coach. You need to have 2406 02:07:05,440 --> 02:07:07,960 Speaker 3: somebody in place to show, hey, this is what we're 2407 02:07:08,000 --> 02:07:12,920 Speaker 3: going to do. And that is why the Butenholzer move 2408 02:07:13,160 --> 02:07:16,240 Speaker 3: wasn't for what had happened in the past, meaning the 2409 02:07:16,240 --> 02:07:21,080 Speaker 3: playoff failures that didn't help, but those also might attributed 2410 02:07:21,160 --> 02:07:23,680 Speaker 3: to what could happen in the future, and you've got 2411 02:07:23,680 --> 02:07:27,400 Speaker 3: to figure out a way to make this franchise stable 2412 02:07:27,520 --> 02:07:30,960 Speaker 3: enough and figure out a way to keep you honest 2413 02:07:31,160 --> 02:07:34,200 Speaker 3: or build a foundation that you don't completely fall off 2414 02:07:34,200 --> 02:07:35,800 Speaker 3: the map when you lose your superstar. 2415 02:07:36,000 --> 02:07:38,440 Speaker 2: To that end, you talk about two years before that 2416 02:07:38,480 --> 02:07:41,760 Speaker 2: player option. You've also got an aging roster. Yes, right, 2417 02:07:41,800 --> 02:07:44,640 Speaker 2: this is not a young roster. There's not you know, hey, 2418 02:07:44,680 --> 02:07:47,080 Speaker 2: we can point to two or three guys on the 2419 02:07:47,120 --> 02:07:50,000 Speaker 2: bench that are ready to rise up and take on 2420 02:07:50,080 --> 02:07:53,600 Speaker 2: significant minutes. Anything they're going to do from a roster 2421 02:07:53,720 --> 02:07:58,000 Speaker 2: perspective to bolster their chances and roll back to the 2422 02:07:58,040 --> 02:08:01,560 Speaker 2: top seeds. Being a top seed in the East is 2423 02:08:01,600 --> 02:08:04,920 Speaker 2: all fine and good. Doesn't matter. Yeah, right, you don't 2424 02:08:04,920 --> 02:08:09,200 Speaker 2: win the playoffs, Nobody cares, right, we history is littered 2425 02:08:09,240 --> 02:08:12,520 Speaker 2: with all of these great performances in regular season efforts 2426 02:08:12,880 --> 02:08:17,920 Speaker 2: and with them being ousted in round one. You saw 2427 02:08:18,000 --> 02:08:21,600 Speaker 2: the latest you know, reminder of that, right when the 2428 02:08:21,640 --> 02:08:25,120 Speaker 2: Warriors won their seventy three games, when the Patriots lost 2429 02:08:25,160 --> 02:08:29,560 Speaker 2: in the Super Bowl. All these huge regular seasons and 2430 02:08:29,680 --> 02:08:33,400 Speaker 2: dominant performances, nobody cares. We were talking about Chris Paul earlier, 2431 02:08:33,680 --> 02:08:36,520 Speaker 2: great career didn't win, So he goes into a different 2432 02:08:36,600 --> 02:08:37,880 Speaker 2: category of discussion. 2433 02:08:38,520 --> 02:08:38,800 Speaker 3: Yep. 2434 02:08:39,480 --> 02:08:42,280 Speaker 2: Right. Otherwise, if he's even if he's got one, as 2435 02:08:42,320 --> 02:08:45,760 Speaker 2: silly as it may seem, there's an argument that he 2436 02:08:45,840 --> 02:08:49,480 Speaker 2: gets to be part of as a champion. Is that right? 2437 02:08:50,960 --> 02:08:54,880 Speaker 2: Maybe maybe not. But in sports talk radios and sports television, 2438 02:08:55,080 --> 02:08:58,440 Speaker 2: it's different from all right, you and I or pick 2439 02:08:58,800 --> 02:09:04,440 Speaker 2: your favorite basket ball analysts. If they're having a basketball conversation, 2440 02:09:04,560 --> 02:09:07,960 Speaker 2: Chris Paul might be seen differently. It's like Russell Westbrook 2441 02:09:08,040 --> 02:09:12,120 Speaker 2: might be seen differently players that like, because we've seen 2442 02:09:12,320 --> 02:09:16,560 Speaker 2: many a player stand for Russell Westbrook through his career. 2443 02:09:16,560 --> 02:09:18,680 Speaker 2: Of now people will appreciate him, even Kevin Durant did 2444 02:09:18,720 --> 02:09:22,040 Speaker 2: it earlier in these playoffs. Now people will appreciate him 2445 02:09:22,320 --> 02:09:24,880 Speaker 2: and recognize him when he's done, and it'll be that 2446 02:09:24,960 --> 02:09:27,800 Speaker 2: kind of thing. And maybe in basketball circles they do well, 2447 02:09:27,800 --> 02:09:31,800 Speaker 2: here's the thing. We're broadcasting and we're hugging everybody, and 2448 02:09:31,840 --> 02:09:34,760 Speaker 2: we've got to recognize the highs the lows, and let's 2449 02:09:34,760 --> 02:09:37,560 Speaker 2: face it, if it bleeds, it leads. Yes, the old 2450 02:09:37,640 --> 02:09:41,960 Speaker 2: rule of journalism and in this case, little jay journalism 2451 02:09:42,000 --> 02:09:45,280 Speaker 2: that we practice here on sports talk radio. But for Budenholzer, 2452 02:09:45,480 --> 02:09:48,400 Speaker 2: you had a couple of big, regular seasons that came 2453 02:09:48,440 --> 02:09:52,320 Speaker 2: to nothing, and we've started to see and I've mentioned it, 2454 02:09:52,520 --> 02:09:54,880 Speaker 2: part of it tongue in cheek, but part reality, you know, 2455 02:09:54,960 --> 02:09:57,800 Speaker 2: where we talk about guys and the public image they 2456 02:09:57,840 --> 02:10:00,960 Speaker 2: craft versus what's really under the surface. 2457 02:10:01,360 --> 02:10:01,480 Speaker 3: Right. 2458 02:10:01,520 --> 02:10:05,160 Speaker 2: Steph Curry even complained about the officials did it obliquely yesterday, 2459 02:10:05,200 --> 02:10:08,080 Speaker 2: but something we normally don't get from him to where 2460 02:10:08,120 --> 02:10:11,040 Speaker 2: he's a bit ticked off. We talked about jannist and 2461 02:10:11,280 --> 02:10:15,400 Speaker 2: the adjustments that weren't made MVP voting. How he started 2462 02:10:15,400 --> 02:10:19,480 Speaker 2: to go back about the failure of a season because 2463 02:10:19,640 --> 02:10:22,680 Speaker 2: it was raw, right, And in that moment you saw 2464 02:10:22,760 --> 02:10:25,160 Speaker 2: the flash. It's not Smiley, go lucky, I'm happy to 2465 02:10:25,160 --> 02:10:27,920 Speaker 2: be here. No, it's another year that he didn't get 2466 02:10:27,960 --> 02:10:31,440 Speaker 2: to add to whatever the resume is because he wasn't 2467 02:10:31,440 --> 02:10:34,040 Speaker 2: gonna win MVP. And if he's not getting a trophy, 2468 02:10:34,480 --> 02:10:37,320 Speaker 2: it's a good year, fantastic year for stats or whatever, 2469 02:10:37,520 --> 02:10:40,440 Speaker 2: but it's a lost opportunity to add to those things 2470 02:10:40,840 --> 02:10:44,280 Speaker 2: and those objectives that you set out. So when we're 2471 02:10:44,280 --> 02:10:47,080 Speaker 2: doing the scorecard, you don't have that ring in your pocket. 2472 02:10:47,640 --> 02:10:49,760 Speaker 2: You get put into a different category, fair or not. 2473 02:10:50,040 --> 02:10:53,200 Speaker 3: Yes, And I think that there was a reason. I 2474 02:10:53,280 --> 02:10:55,520 Speaker 3: think there was reason enough to make the dismissal. And 2475 02:10:55,560 --> 02:10:59,680 Speaker 3: I know that those that support Budenholzer will point to 2476 02:10:59,680 --> 02:11:02,480 Speaker 3: what he all accomplished and none of that is debatable. 2477 02:11:03,000 --> 02:11:05,760 Speaker 3: But Mike, it's funny because there are certain things that 2478 02:11:05,840 --> 02:11:08,480 Speaker 3: stick with you, and this happens as a fan when 2479 02:11:08,520 --> 02:11:12,160 Speaker 3: you're of teams. I think the general conversation when you 2480 02:11:12,200 --> 02:11:14,320 Speaker 3: look at the Bucks and you look at what happened 2481 02:11:14,320 --> 02:11:17,120 Speaker 3: to them against the Miami Heat, not to not to 2482 02:11:17,560 --> 02:11:21,880 Speaker 3: go back to a series that ended over a week ago, 2483 02:11:21,960 --> 02:11:24,240 Speaker 3: but we make so much about the not calling the 2484 02:11:24,240 --> 02:11:29,080 Speaker 3: timeout at the half second after the Jimmy Butler bucket, 2485 02:11:29,360 --> 02:11:32,080 Speaker 3: to not call a timeout on the final possession when 2486 02:11:32,080 --> 02:11:34,800 Speaker 3: you had two of them in overtime, and then Grayson 2487 02:11:34,840 --> 02:11:40,000 Speaker 3: Allen doesn't even get a shot off. Those are coaching malpractice. 2488 02:11:40,400 --> 02:11:43,680 Speaker 3: You could say. The point that sticks out to me 2489 02:11:44,080 --> 02:11:47,280 Speaker 3: in what is so reflective, and maybe it's partially of 2490 02:11:47,280 --> 02:11:49,720 Speaker 3: what they did at the end of overtime, But there 2491 02:11:49,760 --> 02:11:51,160 Speaker 3: was a point in the Heat game when they're up 2492 02:11:51,240 --> 02:11:53,400 Speaker 3: sixteen points and it's the beginning of the fourth quarter 2493 02:11:53,480 --> 02:11:56,960 Speaker 3: and no one is scoring. No, he can't score, Bucks 2494 02:11:56,960 --> 02:12:00,480 Speaker 3: can't score, but the Bucks are up sixteen points, you 2495 02:12:00,520 --> 02:12:06,080 Speaker 3: have timeouts. He went three minutes and never called a timeout. 2496 02:12:05,040 --> 02:12:08,480 Speaker 3: And you may not think that's a big deal, but 2497 02:12:08,520 --> 02:12:12,400 Speaker 3: what happened was the Heat made a couple of baskets 2498 02:12:12,480 --> 02:12:15,280 Speaker 3: and the next thing you know, it's an eight point game. 2499 02:12:16,120 --> 02:12:19,160 Speaker 3: Miami doesn't need to call a timeout when they're down sixteen. 2500 02:12:19,840 --> 02:12:24,240 Speaker 3: The Bucks do. Like when you're up sixteen and you're 2501 02:12:24,280 --> 02:12:26,680 Speaker 3: not making anything, you know, you just got to make 2502 02:12:26,720 --> 02:12:29,760 Speaker 3: a couple of baskets here and there, you should be okay. 2503 02:12:29,800 --> 02:12:33,080 Speaker 3: And he wasn't recognizing that, and he wasn't calling a timeout, 2504 02:12:33,120 --> 02:12:35,200 Speaker 3: and the next thing you know, the Heat are back 2505 02:12:35,240 --> 02:12:37,720 Speaker 3: in the game, and the timeout you take, it's too late. 2506 02:12:37,840 --> 02:12:41,440 Speaker 3: It's already Heat already back in. That to me told 2507 02:12:41,480 --> 02:12:44,600 Speaker 3: me he didn't necessarily know the team as well as 2508 02:12:45,280 --> 02:12:47,840 Speaker 3: he should have. And there are also points of when 2509 02:12:47,880 --> 02:12:53,720 Speaker 3: you bring in players from other teams. Jay Crowder, Jeff Tigue, 2510 02:12:53,960 --> 02:12:57,920 Speaker 3: Serge Abaka. All of those were late playoff push editions 2511 02:12:58,440 --> 02:13:02,839 Speaker 3: that got relatively minutes. There's a video of Jeff Tigue 2512 02:13:03,640 --> 02:13:05,640 Speaker 3: laughing that he got an a on the Group Project 2513 02:13:05,720 --> 02:13:07,760 Speaker 3: when they won a title two years ago. Sure, like 2514 02:13:07,960 --> 02:13:09,520 Speaker 3: you know, like he because like, hey, I got an 2515 02:13:09,520 --> 02:13:12,680 Speaker 3: a group project. Jay Crowder was brought into play defense 2516 02:13:12,680 --> 02:13:16,200 Speaker 3: and didn't do it. It didn't play like didn't play 2517 02:13:16,200 --> 02:13:18,920 Speaker 3: in that series, and he stuck to his guys that 2518 02:13:19,000 --> 02:13:21,680 Speaker 3: he felt comfortable with. Well, there's a disconnect there if 2519 02:13:21,680 --> 02:13:23,680 Speaker 3: the front office is bringing in players to help you 2520 02:13:23,720 --> 02:13:25,840 Speaker 3: down the stretch and now you're not using them at 2521 02:13:25,840 --> 02:13:28,360 Speaker 3: all in the most important moments. Didn't use PJ. Tucker 2522 02:13:28,360 --> 02:13:31,120 Speaker 3: a lot, you know when they brought him in, But 2523 02:13:31,560 --> 02:13:34,560 Speaker 3: there were other instances. And not to say that Jeff 2524 02:13:34,560 --> 02:13:37,000 Speaker 3: Teague was going to change anything, it's just the point 2525 02:13:37,000 --> 02:13:40,640 Speaker 3: of you bring in certain guys and they he had 2526 02:13:40,680 --> 02:13:42,760 Speaker 3: his guys, he had his rotations, he liked what he 2527 02:13:42,840 --> 02:13:45,240 Speaker 3: wanted to do that needed to change. I know, I 2528 02:13:45,280 --> 02:13:47,800 Speaker 3: got really into the minutia of it, but it's so 2529 02:13:48,000 --> 02:13:50,360 Speaker 3: much about what is at stake for the next two years. 2530 02:13:50,440 --> 02:13:52,600 Speaker 3: Because you don't want the buckst do ofves and become 2531 02:13:52,600 --> 02:13:55,920 Speaker 3: a twenty five win team again season after season, and 2532 02:13:56,000 --> 02:13:58,920 Speaker 3: you've traded a lot of your assets to bring in 2533 02:13:59,000 --> 02:14:01,840 Speaker 3: true holiday, your draft pick situation over the next five 2534 02:14:01,920 --> 02:14:04,400 Speaker 3: years is not good. So you've got to figure out 2535 02:14:04,440 --> 02:14:06,720 Speaker 3: a way to keep gi honest there and then figure 2536 02:14:06,760 --> 02:14:10,720 Speaker 3: out how to surround a team around him that doesn't 2537 02:14:10,800 --> 02:14:13,120 Speaker 3: have Giannis make the comments that he made after the season. 2538 02:14:13,200 --> 02:14:15,600 Speaker 3: So those are all the reasons why they had to 2539 02:14:15,600 --> 02:14:17,960 Speaker 3: make the move. It's not just to all Bucks fire 2540 02:14:18,000 --> 02:14:20,120 Speaker 3: to coach and are looking for a new guy like 2541 02:14:20,240 --> 02:14:22,600 Speaker 3: that is in a lot of markets, like there's a 2542 02:14:22,640 --> 02:14:25,160 Speaker 3: lot at stake for the franchise with that decision. 2543 02:14:25,200 --> 02:14:27,160 Speaker 2: Well, and I think that's that's the part of it 2544 02:14:27,200 --> 02:14:30,920 Speaker 2: that gets lost sometimes from the national debate, maybe a 2545 02:14:31,000 --> 02:14:35,840 Speaker 2: bit more than when you get back into really doing 2546 02:14:35,880 --> 02:14:39,920 Speaker 2: the deep dive for what it means locally into the 2547 02:14:39,920 --> 02:14:42,440 Speaker 2: franchise itself as opposed to the NBA as a whole. 2548 02:14:42,440 --> 02:14:47,000 Speaker 2: And I say this for the graphic that kept making 2549 02:14:47,040 --> 02:14:50,480 Speaker 2: the rounds of a you know, another former coach of 2550 02:14:50,520 --> 02:14:52,480 Speaker 2: the Year that gets fired. The only guy that's still 2551 02:14:52,480 --> 02:14:55,840 Speaker 2: there is Steve Kerr. All these other organizations have big 2552 02:14:55,880 --> 02:15:00,160 Speaker 2: things moving around Superstar. Maybe that you're trying to he 2553 02:15:00,280 --> 02:15:07,400 Speaker 2: happy new ownership, GM philosophy, clash go to Boston, you 2554 02:15:07,480 --> 02:15:11,080 Speaker 2: had a personal issue that they decided to make a change. 2555 02:15:11,080 --> 02:15:14,080 Speaker 2: Thus far, personnel wise, it's worked. And we've talked about 2556 02:15:14,080 --> 02:15:16,480 Speaker 2: the Celtics and where they're at in their series that 2557 02:15:16,560 --> 02:15:20,520 Speaker 2: resumes later on today. But just you don't get a 2558 02:15:20,640 --> 02:15:24,240 Speaker 2: long road to just kind of hang around anymore. Right, 2559 02:15:24,360 --> 02:15:26,840 Speaker 2: whether you win a title, whether you win a Coach 2560 02:15:26,880 --> 02:15:29,800 Speaker 2: of the Year award, whatever, you don't get five or 2561 02:15:29,800 --> 02:15:31,680 Speaker 2: six years to all right, Well, you know what, he 2562 02:15:32,040 --> 02:15:35,880 Speaker 2: was a winner, very rare, like some of the organization's stability, 2563 02:15:36,320 --> 02:15:40,480 Speaker 2: you stay with it, and it's just not in their DNA. Right, 2564 02:15:40,520 --> 02:15:44,720 Speaker 2: there was talk before Lamar Jackson reinvigorated what was going on, 2565 02:15:45,080 --> 02:15:47,680 Speaker 2: Harbaugh was going to be out in Baltimore. Well now 2566 02:15:47,680 --> 02:15:51,800 Speaker 2: they're tied together forever, Mike Tomlin in a minute, since 2567 02:15:51,840 --> 02:15:57,080 Speaker 2: they really want anything, but he's still there. Culture consistency, 2568 02:15:57,560 --> 02:16:01,560 Speaker 2: et cetera. Most teams don't operate rate that way, right, 2569 02:16:01,760 --> 02:16:04,640 Speaker 2: most teams, it's a knee jerk to what the market 2570 02:16:04,680 --> 02:16:09,440 Speaker 2: wants or opportunities or potential for chaos. And in Milwaukee, 2571 02:16:09,560 --> 02:16:12,640 Speaker 2: the potential for chaos is certainly there because you're taking 2572 02:16:12,640 --> 02:16:15,280 Speaker 2: on a new ownership role, as like, wait, the guy 2573 02:16:15,400 --> 02:16:18,560 Speaker 2: that we've had our valuation go up, how much I 2574 02:16:18,600 --> 02:16:20,960 Speaker 2: paid how much for this franchise? Is this guy's here 2575 02:16:21,920 --> 02:16:24,080 Speaker 2: and it potentially goes asunder. 2576 02:16:23,920 --> 02:16:27,400 Speaker 3: I mentioned the Spurs. I think the Rockets are another example. 2577 02:16:27,400 --> 02:16:29,360 Speaker 3: Look at where the Rockets are right now to. 2578 02:16:29,280 --> 02:16:33,160 Speaker 2: Get only the Mavericks got fined for tanking, but if. 2579 02:16:33,080 --> 02:16:36,879 Speaker 3: You look at what happens when your championship team falls 2580 02:16:36,920 --> 02:16:40,640 Speaker 3: apart and your superstar wants out. And I'm not saying 2581 02:16:40,680 --> 02:16:43,680 Speaker 3: that that Giannis is going to be James Harden, but 2582 02:16:43,720 --> 02:16:49,440 Speaker 3: they're the The notion of him leaving is not not 2583 02:16:49,760 --> 02:16:53,680 Speaker 3: far fetched. He accomplished what he needed to do. He 2584 02:16:53,680 --> 02:16:57,160 Speaker 3: needed to win a championship, and he did, And I 2585 02:16:57,160 --> 02:16:59,680 Speaker 3: think it would be human nature. Buddy of mine, who's 2586 02:16:59,680 --> 02:17:02,760 Speaker 3: also Bucks fan back home, we both said when he signed, 2587 02:17:02,800 --> 02:17:04,600 Speaker 3: when he signed this deal, we felt that it was 2588 02:17:04,600 --> 02:17:06,760 Speaker 3: his last deal in Milwaukee. It's just my gut. I 2589 02:17:06,800 --> 02:17:10,200 Speaker 3: don't know anything, but because I could see why you 2590 02:17:10,200 --> 02:17:12,760 Speaker 3: would want to see something else. And you see the Spurs, 2591 02:17:12,760 --> 02:17:14,320 Speaker 3: you see the Rockets, you see what it took for 2592 02:17:14,360 --> 02:17:16,600 Speaker 3: the Thunder. You know they got they have, you know, 2593 02:17:16,760 --> 02:17:19,080 Speaker 3: forty first round picks, but how many deals do they 2594 02:17:19,120 --> 02:17:21,200 Speaker 3: have to make and how many high draft picks do 2595 02:17:21,280 --> 02:17:23,360 Speaker 3: they have to get and how many you know you 2596 02:17:23,520 --> 02:17:26,200 Speaker 3: landed on Shay Giljess, Alexander Josh Getty seems to be 2597 02:17:26,240 --> 02:17:28,200 Speaker 3: a good player that you drafted, and all of that 2598 02:17:28,280 --> 02:17:30,720 Speaker 3: was just to get into the plane tournament, like you 2599 02:17:30,720 --> 02:17:33,039 Speaker 3: want to talk about. Like, so that's that's what is 2600 02:17:33,080 --> 02:17:38,000 Speaker 3: at stake for, you know, for Milwaukee in terms of 2601 02:17:38,000 --> 02:17:39,920 Speaker 3: that franchise. Now, everybody's going to talk about what will 2602 02:17:39,920 --> 02:17:41,879 Speaker 3: he go to the Lakers, Will he go to the Knicks? 2603 02:17:41,879 --> 02:17:43,640 Speaker 3: Will he go to the Warriors? Like that's going to 2604 02:17:43,720 --> 02:17:47,679 Speaker 3: be the national conversation. But for this conversation of Budenholzer's 2605 02:17:47,720 --> 02:17:51,080 Speaker 3: firing is just so much more about what could happen 2606 02:17:51,120 --> 02:17:53,600 Speaker 3: and you couldn't afford to keep him around another year 2607 02:17:53,800 --> 02:17:56,240 Speaker 3: just because of what happened previously. 2608 02:17:56,520 --> 02:17:59,120 Speaker 2: He's Dann Bayer, Mike Harmon, thanks for hanging out with this, 2609 02:17:59,240 --> 02:18:02,840 Speaker 2: yere Fox Sports Sunday, Fox Sports Radio, and coming up next, 2610 02:18:02,879 --> 02:18:06,160 Speaker 2: we've got the two Extremes, one of the most exciting 2611 02:18:06,959 --> 02:18:10,480 Speaker 2: things happening in basketball.

That was one from the 2627 02:18:57,320 --> 02:18:59,600 Speaker 2: NFL Draft, which I think I'll start with because this 2628 02:18:59,640 --> 02:19:03,359 Speaker 2: one will we'll start boring and go exciting. It's exciting 2629 02:19:03,400 --> 02:19:08,440 Speaker 2: for me. Peter Skarowsky, offensive lineman from the Northwestern Wildcats, 2630 02:19:09,440 --> 02:19:12,720 Speaker 2: was quoted as saying, well, he wasn't quite sure how 2631 02:19:12,720 --> 02:19:14,320 Speaker 2: things are going to go because when he talked to 2632 02:19:14,840 --> 02:19:17,959 Speaker 2: Arthur Smith he was told he was boring. 2633 02:19:19,080 --> 02:19:23,000 Speaker 3: And did like Smith kind of agam on and be like, it's. 2634 02:19:22,760 --> 02:19:26,160 Speaker 2: Just sure, come on, you gotta have something to you. 2635 02:19:27,320 --> 02:19:31,400 Speaker 3: This is funny because if you took just on the 2636 02:19:31,440 --> 02:19:36,880 Speaker 3: surface of watching on the sidelines or just facial expression. 2637 02:19:37,520 --> 02:19:40,959 Speaker 3: No doubt Arthur Smith would win the Gold Medal for 2638 02:19:41,080 --> 02:19:47,000 Speaker 3: most boring facial expressions. Maybe it's a good poker face. 2639 02:19:47,640 --> 02:19:53,080 Speaker 3: I don't know. It just doesn't. It just doesn't oose fun, right, doesn't. 2640 02:19:53,160 --> 02:19:54,520 Speaker 2: No, it's a fair point. It's fair point. 2641 02:19:54,520 --> 02:19:56,840 Speaker 3: And I'm not saying that my face does either, But 2642 02:19:56,879 --> 02:19:59,920 Speaker 3: it's just his. You know, some people have resting blank face. 2643 02:20:00,520 --> 02:20:04,879 Speaker 3: Some people just have resting, boring face. That's seems that's 2644 02:20:04,920 --> 02:20:08,000 Speaker 3: what Arthur Smith has. So for him to say that 2645 02:20:08,080 --> 02:20:09,959 Speaker 3: to Scaransky, it's a pretty. 2646 02:20:09,760 --> 02:20:12,920 Speaker 2: Rich Oh you play well, you're at Northwestern. It's like, 2647 02:20:12,959 --> 02:20:14,480 Speaker 2: what's your what's your thing? 2648 02:20:15,160 --> 02:20:15,640 Speaker 3: Right? What? 2649 02:20:15,640 --> 02:20:18,240 Speaker 2: What you what gets you excited? Try just trying all 2650 02:20:18,320 --> 02:20:20,840 Speaker 2: different avenues by which to get him. It's like you're 2651 02:20:20,840 --> 02:20:24,720 Speaker 2: answering these questions, you know, like like a robot was 2652 02:20:24,760 --> 02:20:29,360 Speaker 2: more or less what he was Like, Well, I'm answering him, honestly. Sorry, sorry, 2653 02:20:29,360 --> 02:20:32,760 Speaker 2: they're not exciting, flashy whatever. But it's also about being 2654 02:20:32,800 --> 02:20:35,959 Speaker 2: well prepped, right, I mean, because the other is, well 2655 02:20:36,000 --> 02:20:38,400 Speaker 2: they couldn't answer the questions at all, is what we hear? 2656 02:20:38,600 --> 02:20:41,800 Speaker 2: Or he didn't interview, Well what does that mean? So 2657 02:20:42,480 --> 02:20:45,560 Speaker 2: like that that could be anything on a wide swath 2658 02:20:45,640 --> 02:20:48,000 Speaker 2: of I just I had no idea what you were 2659 02:20:48,040 --> 02:20:50,520 Speaker 2: asking me, so I I danced over here like you 2660 02:20:50,520 --> 02:20:53,720 Speaker 2: were answering an essay question on a test from in 2661 02:20:53,800 --> 02:20:54,400 Speaker 2: high school. 2662 02:20:54,680 --> 02:20:57,440 Speaker 3: I think there's also just this arrogance that Arthur Smith 2663 02:20:57,480 --> 02:21:01,519 Speaker 3: figures that he has cracked the code with what questions 2664 02:21:01,560 --> 02:21:04,800 Speaker 3: to ask guys to find out really what is about them? 2665 02:21:05,080 --> 02:21:09,080 Speaker 3: And Scornsky wasn't playing like you know, ask ask the 2666 02:21:09,160 --> 02:21:13,519 Speaker 3: people who spent the last you know, four years with Scronsky, 2667 02:21:14,040 --> 02:21:17,200 Speaker 3: ask them their opinions of him. And if you meet 2668 02:21:17,240 --> 02:21:19,400 Speaker 3: him and he's good enough and he's answering like the 2669 02:21:19,840 --> 02:21:22,360 Speaker 3: answer like to elicit some sort of reaction or to 2670 02:21:22,400 --> 02:21:25,680 Speaker 3: get some sort of uh, you know, reaction or answer 2671 02:21:25,720 --> 02:21:28,640 Speaker 3: out of someone, and that's gonna be the determination why 2672 02:21:28,720 --> 02:21:31,960 Speaker 3: you made the draft pick. To me, is ridiculous. They're 2673 02:21:31,959 --> 02:21:35,160 Speaker 3: they're that portion of it. If he's boring, he's boring, 2674 02:21:35,240 --> 02:21:37,440 Speaker 3: guess what less problems for you to deal with? 2675 02:21:37,600 --> 02:21:40,119 Speaker 2: Well, the other is, you know, just always a reminder 2676 02:21:40,920 --> 02:21:43,960 Speaker 2: there's there's still gonna be a job or someone out 2677 02:21:44,000 --> 02:21:47,119 Speaker 2: there for you, even if someone else decides that you're boring. 2678 02:21:47,680 --> 02:21:51,480 Speaker 3: Yes, yes, right, And the Titans were good with it. 2679 02:21:51,959 --> 02:21:55,560 Speaker 2: Decided we're we're okay with boring. That means we can 2680 02:21:56,080 --> 02:21:58,200 Speaker 2: set it and forget it like a ron Co product 2681 02:21:58,240 --> 02:22:01,199 Speaker 2: for the next decade. On the other end of the spectrum, 2682 02:22:01,240 --> 02:22:06,039 Speaker 2: the excitement that Bronni James is heading to usc uh 2683 02:22:06,240 --> 02:22:12,760 Speaker 2: nil valuation of nearly six million dollars. Obviously proud papa 2684 02:22:12,840 --> 02:22:15,959 Speaker 2: Lebron James talking about how important was not a lot 2685 02:22:16,000 --> 02:22:18,800 Speaker 2: of history of college and his family and kind of 2686 02:22:18,800 --> 02:22:21,240 Speaker 2: a little nod at himself, go, well, you know I 2687 02:22:21,240 --> 02:22:24,400 Speaker 2: didn't go and whatever else, but you know, a big 2688 02:22:24,440 --> 02:22:28,720 Speaker 2: deal there, but also a coup for usc because Oregon 2689 02:22:28,879 --> 02:22:29,560 Speaker 2: was in the mix. 2690 02:22:29,959 --> 02:22:35,680 Speaker 3: I get that that's neat for Lebron. Okay, but we 2691 02:22:35,840 --> 02:22:38,600 Speaker 3: know that if Lebron wanted to go to college, he 2692 02:22:41,160 --> 02:22:46,279 Speaker 3: you know, if schools didn't have NCAA violations for recruiting 2693 02:22:46,320 --> 02:22:47,280 Speaker 3: him or what you know. 2694 02:22:48,480 --> 02:22:51,920 Speaker 2: A nod here of you know, the rules are stupid, 2695 02:22:51,920 --> 02:22:54,640 Speaker 2: he shouldn't have to do this, sure, which I think 2696 02:22:55,000 --> 02:22:57,600 Speaker 2: in some of what Lebron was saying in the post game, 2697 02:22:57,800 --> 02:23:00,200 Speaker 2: as much of a proud papa as he is, and 2698 02:23:00,240 --> 02:23:03,080 Speaker 2: the you know, the college side of things, there are 2699 02:23:03,200 --> 02:23:06,080 Speaker 2: one or two lines like that to kind of say, 2700 02:23:06,800 --> 02:23:09,160 Speaker 2: shouldn't he just be able to go? Yeah, he's so 2701 02:23:09,320 --> 02:23:11,599 Speaker 2: pro if he wants he's he's also. 2702 02:23:11,800 --> 02:23:14,959 Speaker 3: Like he's he's not going there on an academic scholarship. No, 2703 02:23:15,640 --> 02:23:17,640 Speaker 3: and that's and so like that's that's the point of 2704 02:23:17,680 --> 02:23:19,800 Speaker 3: where it's like, Okay, Lebron, like I get it. You 2705 02:23:19,800 --> 02:23:22,520 Speaker 3: know you're you're making that narrative, but the narrative that 2706 02:23:22,560 --> 02:23:25,199 Speaker 3: I think that should be. And I am so rooting 2707 02:23:25,200 --> 02:23:28,200 Speaker 3: for Brownie James to succeed, like like there is like 2708 02:23:28,360 --> 02:23:30,880 Speaker 3: I I wanted to go well for him. I want 2709 02:23:30,959 --> 02:23:34,040 Speaker 3: him to develop his own career because I just I 2710 02:23:34,120 --> 02:23:38,160 Speaker 3: can't imagine living in the spotlight that he has lived. 2711 02:23:38,640 --> 02:23:42,160 Speaker 3: And I really really hope it works out. But I 2712 02:23:42,200 --> 02:23:45,360 Speaker 3: also think Mike, as you said, six million dollars to Nil, 2713 02:23:45,879 --> 02:23:49,720 Speaker 3: and I'm like, it doesn't matter to him. I'm not 2714 02:23:49,760 --> 02:23:52,920 Speaker 3: saying that he's going to have, you know, the family's money, 2715 02:23:52,920 --> 02:23:59,720 Speaker 3: but Nil really can help families that aren't accustomed to 2716 02:23:59,720 --> 02:24:03,280 Speaker 3: having that sort of cash. Sure, So Ronnie James, as 2717 02:24:03,320 --> 02:24:08,039 Speaker 3: he's determining where to go, I think is saying to himself, well, 2718 02:24:08,160 --> 02:24:09,920 Speaker 3: where do I want to be? And a lot of 2719 02:24:09,920 --> 02:24:13,000 Speaker 3: times kids pick close to home, because it's not about 2720 02:24:13,160 --> 02:24:16,000 Speaker 3: where can I get the most NIL money. You know, 2721 02:24:16,040 --> 02:24:18,320 Speaker 3: your dad's going to be a billionaire. You know, he 2722 02:24:18,360 --> 02:24:21,800 Speaker 3: isn't already a billionaire, so like that isn't part of 2723 02:24:21,840 --> 02:24:25,080 Speaker 3: the equation. It should also be because there are questions 2724 02:24:25,120 --> 02:24:27,640 Speaker 3: on how soon he'll be ready. Where can I develop, 2725 02:24:27,840 --> 02:24:30,280 Speaker 3: Where can I you know, take my game to the 2726 02:24:30,280 --> 02:24:33,480 Speaker 3: next step, which I think is awesome if that's the case, 2727 02:24:34,000 --> 02:24:36,400 Speaker 3: because that's how it used to be when you know, 2728 02:24:36,440 --> 02:24:39,200 Speaker 3: when it was prior to NIL, and I know that 2729 02:24:39,200 --> 02:24:43,160 Speaker 3: they're always you know, going forty fifty years back, there 2730 02:24:43,200 --> 02:24:46,320 Speaker 3: was always money and stuff involved. But that doesn't matter 2731 02:24:46,360 --> 02:24:47,879 Speaker 3: with Bronnie. And that's what I think is like so 2732 02:24:48,080 --> 02:24:50,840 Speaker 3: unique about it is he really could take the choice 2733 02:24:50,879 --> 02:24:52,120 Speaker 3: of do I want to stay close to home or 2734 02:24:52,160 --> 02:24:54,039 Speaker 3: do I want to go somewhere else? Well, you know, 2735 02:24:54,760 --> 02:24:56,680 Speaker 3: you know, I know I'm from you know, was born 2736 02:24:56,680 --> 02:25:00,200 Speaker 3: in Ohio, you know, spent time there growing up. My 2737 02:25:00,240 --> 02:25:02,800 Speaker 3: dad played for the Calves. But you know, maybe Ohio 2738 02:25:02,800 --> 02:25:05,680 Speaker 3: State's just not going to be for me, or agaon. 2739 02:25:06,000 --> 02:25:08,880 Speaker 3: You know, great connections there. Could go up the coast 2740 02:25:08,879 --> 02:25:10,800 Speaker 3: and play with the ducks, but I'm just going to 2741 02:25:10,840 --> 02:25:13,440 Speaker 3: stay closer to home. That's an awesome decision, you. 2742 02:25:13,400 --> 02:25:16,080 Speaker 2: Know, I like it, But it's always the ability to 2743 02:25:16,160 --> 02:25:21,439 Speaker 2: have that decision at all, and il money, the surname, 2744 02:25:22,400 --> 02:25:25,520 Speaker 2: all of that. Like I try to preach to my kids, 2745 02:25:25,520 --> 02:25:28,720 Speaker 2: and I'm certainly not in the same tax bracket and 2746 02:25:28,760 --> 02:25:32,800 Speaker 2: whatever as the Jameses, But it's just life philosophy in general, 2747 02:25:32,800 --> 02:25:35,880 Speaker 2: and give yourself optionality, right, do well in your coursework. 2748 02:25:35,959 --> 02:25:37,760 Speaker 2: Like my younger daughter, she's on the pitch down in 2749 02:25:37,840 --> 02:25:42,520 Speaker 2: San Diego plant soccer. Now, maybe there's something to what 2750 02:25:42,600 --> 02:25:45,600 Speaker 2: she's doing, and maybe there's an avenue by which she 2751 02:25:45,840 --> 02:25:47,840 Speaker 2: gets to make that decision in a couple of years. 2752 02:25:48,120 --> 02:25:51,000 Speaker 2: But in the interim, keep kicking ass and lab work 2753 02:25:51,360 --> 02:25:54,160 Speaker 2: and doing your work in the classroom. Maybe there's another 2754 02:25:54,400 --> 02:25:57,480 Speaker 2: avenue that avails itself there that you get to make 2755 02:25:57,480 --> 02:26:01,200 Speaker 2: a choice of where those come by, or if you 2756 02:26:01,280 --> 02:26:03,960 Speaker 2: have to kind of detach them a little bit, that 2757 02:26:04,000 --> 02:26:06,000 Speaker 2: you at least go in with your eyes wide open. 2758 02:26:06,040 --> 02:26:08,480 Speaker 2: For Brownie James, he's got the weight of the world 2759 02:26:08,560 --> 02:26:12,000 Speaker 2: based on the surname and his dad's popularity. We saw 2760 02:26:12,000 --> 02:26:15,080 Speaker 2: it with Jordan's kids A generation to go. Just now, 2761 02:26:15,080 --> 02:26:18,560 Speaker 2: it's all social media, and you can't there's nowhere to hide. 2762 02:26:19,000 --> 02:26:22,840 Speaker 2: Yes at all, Absolutely and surely got front and center 2763 02:26:22,920 --> 02:26:27,160 Speaker 2: for Game three after making the announcement. Certainly no retreating 2764 02:26:27,200 --> 02:26:30,800 Speaker 2: and shrinking into the shadows to be done there. He's 2765 02:26:30,879 --> 02:26:32,720 Speaker 2: damn bayer. I'm by Carmen. Let's start it over to 2766 02:26:32,760 --> 02:26:35,400 Speaker 2: our guy, Isaac lowen Kron. He needs to kick Steve 2767 02:26:35,440 --> 02:26:37,360 Speaker 2: Hartman out of his booth so he can give us 2768 02:26:37,360 --> 02:26:39,760 Speaker 2: an update on what's trying to get our Sporting universe. 2769 02:26:39,920 --> 02:26:43,240 Speaker 5: Story of my life, fellas, story of my life.

I should have. 2772 02:26:49,560 --> 02:26:50,720 Speaker 2: I should have had you guys. 2773 02:26:50,520 --> 02:26:56,040 Speaker 5: Do that five years a Kike Carman bouncer moonlighting a 2774 02:26:56,160 --> 02:26:59,520 Speaker 5: club dread in Glendale. Coming up later. Anyway, fellas, we 2775 02:26:59,560 --> 02:27:03,000 Speaker 5: do have one Major League Baseball game underway at this hour, 2776 02:27:03,080 --> 02:27:05,280 Speaker 5: the Atlanta Braves with a one nothing lead over the 2777 02:27:05,280 --> 02:27:07,920 Speaker 5: Baltimore Orioles at the top half of the fourth inning 2778 02:27:08,000 --> 02:27:10,880 Speaker 5: in Atlanta on Matt Olsen's tenth home run of the 2779 02:27:10,959 --> 02:27:14,240 Speaker 5: year back in the first inning. But sad news today 2780 02:27:14,240 --> 02:27:17,680 Speaker 5: for Major League Baseball. Former Oakland ag Star pitcher Vita 2781 02:27:17,720 --> 02:27:20,959 Speaker 5: Blue has passed away at the age of seventy three. 2782 02:27:21,080 --> 02:27:23,720 Speaker 5: He won two hundred and nine games during his major 2783 02:27:23,800 --> 02:27:26,880 Speaker 5: league career. Vida Blue a six time All Star, three 2784 02:27:27,000 --> 02:27:31,119 Speaker 5: time World champion. And how about this.

With 2789 02:27:45,560 --> 02:27:47,920 Speaker 5: NBC's Kurt Goudy at the microphone. 2790 02:27:48,280 --> 02:27:50,520 Speaker 8: You can always telling a pitcher has stuff when he's 2791 02:27:50,560 --> 02:27:53,080 Speaker 8: hard to hit. Blue has given up only on deck 2792 02:27:53,160 --> 02:27:56,119 Speaker 8: evnch five and a half hips every nine innings. He's 2793 02:27:56,120 --> 02:27:59,640 Speaker 8: pitch and he's struck.

If you know the Golden State 2801 02:28:22,200 --> 02:28:25,880 Speaker 5: Warriors by thirty points one, twenty seven to ninety seven 2802 02:28:25,920 --> 02:28:28,840 Speaker 5: for a two games to one lead. Anthony Davis twenty 2803 02:28:28,840 --> 02:28:31,240 Speaker 5: five points, seven out of ten from the field, eleven 2804 02:28:31,240 --> 02:28:32,720 Speaker 5: out of twelve in the free throw line. 2805 02:28:32,720 --> 02:28:33,280 Speaker 2: He also had. 2806 02:28:33,680 --> 02:28:37,879 Speaker 5: Thirteen rebounds, three steals, and four block shots. Mike and 2807 02:28:37,959 --> 02:28:38,720 Speaker 5: Dan back to you. 2808 02:28:39,040 --> 02:28:42,039 Speaker 3: Thank you very much. Isaac. It is Fox Sports Sunday. 2809 02:28:42,080 --> 02:28:44,160 Speaker 3: Get Mike on Twitter at swollen Dome. You can find 2810 02:28:44,200 --> 02:28:47,080 Speaker 3: me on Twitter at Dan Byer on Fox. As we 2811 02:28:47,120 --> 02:28:50,560 Speaker 3: are all from the TIREC dot com studios, Let's talk 2812 02:28:50,600 --> 02:28:54,400 Speaker 3: some fantasy football, and let's talk about some pass catchers. Mike, 2813 02:28:54,480 --> 02:28:57,520 Speaker 3: we did quarterbacks running backs a little bit earlier. Now 2814 02:28:57,560 --> 02:28:59,840 Speaker 3: we want to know about the guys that were drafted 2815 02:28:59,840 --> 02:29:02,040 Speaker 3: to the draft a little over a week ago. They're 2816 02:29:02,080 --> 02:29:03,920 Speaker 3: going to be catching these passes from some of the 2817 02:29:03,959 --> 02:29:06,720 Speaker 3: quarterbacks that we talked about. And the first round had 2818 02:29:06,720 --> 02:29:09,440 Speaker 3: some interesting names. You had the run of four straight 2819 02:29:09,480 --> 02:29:12,720 Speaker 3: wide receivers in the first round with Jackson Smith and Jigba, 2820 02:29:12,879 --> 02:29:18,640 Speaker 3: Jordan Addison, Quintin, Johnston Ze Flowers all taken in that order. 2821 02:29:18,680 --> 02:29:22,520 Speaker 3: At that point. The wide receiver position rookie wise in 2822 02:29:22,520 --> 02:29:24,440 Speaker 3: the NFL, how do you see it shaking out at 2823 02:29:24,480 --> 02:29:24,760 Speaker 3: the top. 2824 02:29:24,920 --> 02:29:28,520 Speaker 2: Well you got the curiosity. I mean, Johnston's production is 2825 02:29:28,560 --> 02:29:32,240 Speaker 2: going to be largely dependent on Keenan Allen and Mike Williams' health. 2826 02:29:32,720 --> 02:29:34,440 Speaker 2: Like we're now, they're going to throw the ball around. 2827 02:29:34,520 --> 02:29:38,280 Speaker 2: You bring in Kellen Moore to run the offense. Justin Herbert, 2828 02:29:38,560 --> 02:29:40,480 Speaker 2: You know, I could throw a football over that mountain. 2829 02:29:41,800 --> 02:29:45,440 Speaker 2: Kind of mentality is what people keep waiting for. And 2830 02:29:45,480 --> 02:29:49,240 Speaker 2: then you look at last year they're leading target Garner 2831 02:29:49,480 --> 02:29:53,920 Speaker 2: was Austin Eckler by a full twenty because the others 2832 02:29:54,440 --> 02:29:59,200 Speaker 2: can't stay healthy. Eckler's back, so he'll eat up a 2833 02:29:59,240 --> 02:30:02,800 Speaker 2: lot of the target at least to start. But Johnson's 2834 02:30:02,800 --> 02:30:05,040 Speaker 2: a guy that I hang a star on that if 2835 02:30:05,080 --> 02:30:08,960 Speaker 2: things break his way, No pun intended that he could 2836 02:30:09,000 --> 02:30:12,120 Speaker 2: be in for a big year. I think Addison in 2837 02:30:12,160 --> 02:30:18,760 Speaker 2: Minnesota is intriguing running with Justin Jefferson. As I said before, 2838 02:30:18,840 --> 02:30:22,959 Speaker 2: Minnesota's offense and you know how it shakes out in 2839 02:30:23,080 --> 02:30:26,360 Speaker 2: the backfield and health wise there remains to be seen. 2840 02:30:26,480 --> 02:30:29,280 Speaker 2: But in the NFC, how many better do you guys 2841 02:30:29,360 --> 02:30:33,560 Speaker 2: think Kirk Cousins at this point? And what Minnesota brings 2842 02:30:33,560 --> 02:30:34,160 Speaker 2: the Bear. 2843 02:30:34,120 --> 02:30:36,600 Speaker 3: Don't you think. And I don't want to put words 2844 02:30:36,640 --> 02:30:41,959 Speaker 3: in your mouth, but the Addison situation is okay, Now, 2845 02:30:42,000 --> 02:30:46,879 Speaker 3: Adam feelens in Carolina, you obviously know the focus is 2846 02:30:46,920 --> 02:30:50,360 Speaker 3: on Justin Jefferson. But when Jackson Smith and Jigbu goes 2847 02:30:50,400 --> 02:30:54,240 Speaker 3: to Seattle, I think he'll be the number three target, 2848 02:30:54,520 --> 02:30:57,920 Speaker 3: and I think Addison has the opportunity to be that 2849 02:30:58,000 --> 02:31:01,720 Speaker 3: number two guy in Minnesota. And so when I'm looking 2850 02:31:01,760 --> 02:31:06,280 Speaker 3: at the pass catchers, I you know, I know, like 2851 02:31:06,360 --> 02:31:07,840 Speaker 3: those top four are the ones that you're going to 2852 02:31:07,920 --> 02:31:12,080 Speaker 3: put usually. I think at some point either one, two, three, 2853 02:31:12,160 --> 02:31:15,920 Speaker 3: or four, Addison's the one that stands out to me, 2854 02:31:16,520 --> 02:31:20,680 Speaker 3: and even Zay Flowers. And I'll point this out of 2855 02:31:21,560 --> 02:31:25,880 Speaker 3: how much does Lamar Jackson have chemistry with Rashad Bateman, 2856 02:31:26,280 --> 02:31:29,080 Speaker 3: how much will he have with Odell Beckham Junior? And 2857 02:31:29,120 --> 02:31:31,680 Speaker 3: the Jay Flowers all of a sudden becomes this you know, 2858 02:31:32,760 --> 02:31:35,000 Speaker 3: breadth of fresh air, where all of a sudden, now 2859 02:31:35,000 --> 02:31:39,039 Speaker 3: there's a connection between the two. So the the the 2860 02:31:39,160 --> 02:31:41,720 Speaker 3: volatility that you can get with Addison and Jay Flowers 2861 02:31:41,800 --> 02:31:44,000 Speaker 3: is very intriguing to me. Atop those rookie wide receivers. 2862 02:31:44,000 --> 02:31:45,920 Speaker 2: Oh, I would agree one hundred percent. When we look 2863 02:31:45,959 --> 02:31:49,480 Speaker 2: at Zay Flowers. This goes back to throwing a football 2864 02:31:49,480 --> 02:31:51,360 Speaker 2: over the mountain. Lamar Jackson said he wants to throw 2865 02:31:51,440 --> 02:31:54,280 Speaker 2: for six thousand yards. Now, obviously that's tongue in cheek 2866 02:31:54,280 --> 02:31:57,520 Speaker 2: and he would need to average five hundred yards per 2867 02:31:57,600 --> 02:31:59,879 Speaker 2: game in the twelve that he'll be healthy and available. 2868 02:32:01,520 --> 02:32:05,920 Speaker 2: Excuse me, but the opportunity there. You spread the ball 2869 02:32:06,000 --> 02:32:09,080 Speaker 2: round to your point. The other wide receivers haven't been 2870 02:32:09,160 --> 02:32:11,520 Speaker 2: on the field at all with this team or haven't 2871 02:32:11,560 --> 02:32:14,760 Speaker 2: been available, And this goes back to the back and 2872 02:32:14,840 --> 02:32:17,640 Speaker 2: forth with DaCosta and the media, and he thinks he 2873 02:32:17,680 --> 02:32:21,879 Speaker 2: does protest too much. The Ravens receivers clapping back, and 2874 02:32:21,879 --> 02:32:23,680 Speaker 2: part of it might have been a delicate genius of 2875 02:32:23,720 --> 02:32:26,160 Speaker 2: a GM going, I need you guys to fight through 2876 02:32:26,680 --> 02:32:30,400 Speaker 2: what we considered minor injuries and not take yourself out 2877 02:32:30,400 --> 02:32:33,080 Speaker 2: whatever I'm reading between the lines. Because the Ravens also 2878 02:32:33,120 --> 02:32:37,120 Speaker 2: fired their trainer, two guys that we talked about a 2879 02:32:37,120 --> 02:32:40,640 Speaker 2: lot last year, the training room in Baltimore and the 2880 02:32:40,720 --> 02:32:44,160 Speaker 2: training room in Los Angeles with the Chargers. Guess what 2881 02:32:44,680 --> 02:32:47,879 Speaker 2: new heads of both of those operations. So hopefully that 2882 02:32:47,959 --> 02:32:52,640 Speaker 2: translates to more games of activity for skill position players 2883 02:32:52,800 --> 02:32:55,440 Speaker 2: and certainly the Ravens needed in the interior because they 2884 02:32:55,480 --> 02:32:57,920 Speaker 2: got to figure out how to wheel Stanley out every week. 2885 02:32:57,959 --> 02:33:01,879 Speaker 3: At this point, Tank Dell for the Houston Texans. I 2886 02:33:01,920 --> 02:33:03,600 Speaker 3: know it's not on the radar. You shouldn't be taking 2887 02:33:03,800 --> 02:33:05,960 Speaker 3: of the first thirteen rounds of your draft, but if 2888 02:33:06,000 --> 02:33:08,720 Speaker 3: you do have a final pick, could have some value there, 2889 02:33:08,840 --> 02:33:13,480 Speaker 3: just just for the simple reason of this was a CJ. 2890 02:33:13,600 --> 02:33:17,920 Speaker 3: Stroud pick. They hit it off at the combine and 2891 02:33:18,000 --> 02:33:21,320 Speaker 3: the Texans you know, asked Stroud and Stroud gave his opinion, 2892 02:33:21,360 --> 02:33:25,000 Speaker 3: and there their new names. Robert Woods is now in Houston. 2893 02:33:25,680 --> 02:33:31,680 Speaker 3: You bet you have John Nico Collins and John Metchi 2894 02:33:31,840 --> 02:33:33,440 Speaker 3: the Alabama water. 2895 02:33:33,680 --> 02:33:37,360 Speaker 2: Coming back still with some health questions that he'll need 2896 02:33:37,400 --> 02:33:41,520 Speaker 2: to make sure he's passed through as well. But yeah, 2897 02:33:41,560 --> 02:33:43,800 Speaker 2: a lot a lot of change up as you go 2898 02:33:43,920 --> 02:33:46,800 Speaker 2: through a little deeper in the run. Couple of tight ends. 2899 02:33:47,120 --> 02:33:51,680 Speaker 2: I would expect Kincaid and Michael Mayer to be big 2900 02:33:51,879 --> 02:33:55,680 Speaker 2: pieces of their offense, especially Mayor with Darren Waller having 2901 02:33:55,720 --> 02:33:57,840 Speaker 2: gone to the Giants. So that's why I have a 2902 02:33:57,879 --> 02:34:03,120 Speaker 2: star next to Hyatt because I don't because I don't 2903 02:34:03,200 --> 02:34:06,800 Speaker 2: know because they have no idea what like, is there 2904 02:34:06,920 --> 02:34:08,840 Speaker 2: much more because they paid him like they expect a 2905 02:34:08,879 --> 02:34:11,400 Speaker 2: lot more out of Daniel Jones. Does that mean that 2906 02:34:11,480 --> 02:34:14,879 Speaker 2: suddenly the ball is getting getting out more frequently bringing 2907 02:34:14,920 --> 02:34:17,840 Speaker 2: in Waller and bringing in Hyatt. Is there something more 2908 02:34:18,520 --> 02:34:21,000 Speaker 2: that they think they can get out of Daniel Jones? 2909 02:34:21,240 --> 02:34:23,879 Speaker 3: What about the tight end position because you have Dalton 2910 02:34:23,959 --> 02:34:27,840 Speaker 3: Kinkaid going to the Bills. You know, Samuel Porter goes 2911 02:34:27,840 --> 02:34:30,800 Speaker 3: to the Lions.

But now since I control all 2953 02:36:48,920 --> 02:36:53,200 Speaker 2: funds flowing from my work here, perhaps that becomes the 2954 02:36:53,560 --> 02:36:56,720 Speaker 2: Instead of the usual porch swing, it'll be a couple 2955 02:36:56,720 --> 02:36:57,920 Speaker 2: of seats from old commistsy that. 2956 02:36:58,320 --> 02:37:01,920 Speaker 3: That would be pretty cool.

When they tore it down, the guy 2965 02:37:28,840 --> 02:37:31,840 Speaker 3: got some pieces and he's incorporated them into his yard. 2966 02:37:32,120 --> 02:37:33,320 Speaker 3: I did a huge Yankees fan. 2967 02:37:33,480 --> 02:37:37,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, I do have a piece.

Can we get a 2994 02:38:57,480 --> 02:38:59,879 Speaker 2: guy with as an animal expert to come out. 2995 02:39:01,080 --> 02:39:05,680 Speaker 3: Scandals and animals? This a new format change.

But Mike, when it 2998 02:39:12,280 --> 02:39:15,119 Speaker 3: comes when it comes down to it, are there any 2999 02:39:15,160 --> 02:39:17,480 Speaker 3: items from TV that you would love? 3000 02:39:18,040 --> 02:39:21,800 Speaker 2: Now? I know there's some things from the sixties Batman series, 3001 02:39:22,240 --> 02:39:24,360 Speaker 2: while going way back, I could get on board that 3002 02:39:25,760 --> 02:39:27,879 Speaker 2: the All in the Family is intriguing if you could 3003 02:39:27,879 --> 02:39:32,000 Speaker 2: get Archie's chair, But that's in the Smithsonian, isn't it? 3004 02:39:32,160 --> 02:39:33,480 Speaker 2: Well or one of them? 3005 02:39:33,640 --> 02:39:37,720 Speaker 3: Yes, the entire set is available, but I think you're 3006 02:39:37,760 --> 02:39:40,200 Speaker 3: right about that. So the actual chair probably wouldn't have 3007 02:39:40,280 --> 02:39:42,840 Speaker 3: been his chair. But the set of the show, the stairs, 3008 02:39:42,920 --> 02:39:45,039 Speaker 3: the living room is all up for auction. 3009 02:39:45,200 --> 02:39:47,840 Speaker 2: I'd be curious to see what's there from the sixties 3010 02:39:47,879 --> 02:39:50,760 Speaker 2: Batman show that was so so huge for me as 3011 02:39:50,760 --> 02:39:53,160 Speaker 2: a kid.

Oh nicely, the one that Denise made for him. 3016 02:40:07,040 --> 02:40:11,080 Speaker 3: I think that that that is. That shirt just provided 3017 02:40:11,240 --> 02:40:16,160 Speaker 3: so many laughs and then no, obviously recent findings and 3018 02:40:16,240 --> 02:40:19,360 Speaker 3: discoveries have changed the looks of that show. But that 3019 02:40:19,400 --> 02:40:23,120 Speaker 3: shirt was one. The other one Dallas, they had a 3020 02:40:23,160 --> 02:40:26,840 Speaker 3: picture of Jock Ewing Jr. And Bobby's dad.
