Speaker 2: or Indianapolis, and he'll give us his perspective. There are

23
00:01:24,319 --> 00:01:27,600
Speaker 2: some interesting kind of quirks to the Indiana Pacers story.

24
00:01:28,360 --> 00:01:32,440
Speaker 2: Also got a it's a kind of fascinating thing on. Like,

25
00:01:32,600 --> 00:01:35,920
Speaker 2: I'm not really a Derek Carr guy, but there is

26
00:01:35,959 --> 00:01:38,640
Speaker 2: something that Derek Carr did on his way out of

27
00:01:38,640 --> 00:01:40,759
Speaker 2: New Orleans, which I think all of us can say.

28
00:01:41,520 --> 00:01:47,039
Speaker 2: It's pretty solid stuff, pretty solid stuff. I don't know

29
00:01:47,120 --> 00:01:49,680
Speaker 2: if we can fit it in, but there was Stanley

30
00:01:49,680 --> 00:01:52,920
Speaker 2: cupp The Stanley Cup finals were played last night. I

31
00:01:52,960 --> 00:01:57,400
Speaker 2: do have just a quick question. I know Bayer knew

32
00:01:57,440 --> 00:02:00,280
Speaker 2: because that's buyer, that's kind of stuff. J Did you

33
00:02:00,280 --> 00:02:01,840
Speaker 2: know the Stanley Cup Finals were last night?

34
00:02:02,040 --> 00:02:02,360
Speaker 3: Yes?

35
00:02:03,560 --> 00:02:04,160
Speaker 4: Did you watch?

36
00:02:04,880 --> 00:02:05,320
Speaker 3: Negative?

37
00:02:06,240 --> 00:02:07,320
Speaker 2: You watched Dodd Dodgers.

38
00:02:07,320 --> 00:02:12,480
Speaker 3: Mexican Dan sent me a great SoundBite though, wing Gretzky

39
00:02:13,040 --> 00:02:17,880
Speaker 3: making a spot on prediction during that game. We'll get

40
00:02:17,919 --> 00:02:18,680
Speaker 3: to that at some point.

41
00:02:19,040 --> 00:02:21,720
Speaker 2: I cannot wait, can't wait. It was one of those things.

42
00:02:21,800 --> 00:02:26,600
Speaker 2: And my son Hayes is up here with me and

43
00:02:26,639 --> 00:02:28,720
Speaker 2: we went after the show, we went out and hit

44
00:02:28,720 --> 00:02:32,679
Speaker 2: some golf balls and then had decided, Hey, we're gonna

45
00:02:32,720 --> 00:02:34,440
Speaker 2: have dinner at the club, like a bunch couple of

46
00:02:34,440 --> 00:02:38,839
Speaker 2: old men, right, And so we're sitting at the at

47
00:02:38,880 --> 00:02:43,480
Speaker 2: the golf club at Oneida Country Club Bar and we're

48
00:02:43,520 --> 00:02:46,640
Speaker 2: watching the Stanley Cup Finals and he's like, is this

49
00:02:46,720 --> 00:02:49,160
Speaker 2: the finals? And I was like, I think so. And

50
00:02:49,200 --> 00:02:51,040
Speaker 2: then I said, look up in the corner there. My eyes,

51
00:02:51,040 --> 00:02:52,880
Speaker 2: I can't see that. I don't have my glass. I

52
00:02:52,880 --> 00:02:55,959
Speaker 2: can't see distance that clear. He's like, yeah, Stanley Cup Finals.

53
00:02:56,360 --> 00:02:58,079
Speaker 2: I was like, huh, who knew. He's like, well, I

54
00:02:58,120 --> 00:03:00,440
Speaker 2: didn't know. I was like, yeah, but I'm actually sports

55
00:03:00,520 --> 00:03:03,000
Speaker 2: and didn't know. So I apologize. We'll get to what

56
00:03:03,080 --> 00:03:07,280
Speaker 2: you missed during the show. You know, it's weird. The

57
00:03:07,360 --> 00:03:11,360
Speaker 2: Eastern Conference has this ability to do something that the

58
00:03:11,400 --> 00:03:15,240
Speaker 2: Western Conference rarely does, which is produce a random champion.

59
00:03:15,880 --> 00:03:20,840
Speaker 2: Have you guys noticed that. We there's a lot of

60
00:03:20,880 --> 00:03:31,960
Speaker 2: times in which I've had people, We've had people say, man, dang,

61
00:03:33,200 --> 00:03:36,520
Speaker 2: the greatest thing Lebron James ever did was take that

62
00:03:36,800 --> 00:03:42,360
Speaker 2: one NBA one Cleveland Cavalier team before he went to

63
00:03:42,400 --> 00:03:50,160
Speaker 2: Miami to the NBA finals. All Right, you guys remember that. Yeah,

64
00:03:50,360 --> 00:03:53,640
Speaker 2: I'll give you the year. I mean, but it's it's

65
00:03:53,680 --> 00:03:58,320
Speaker 2: it's really interesting right that you go back and the

66
00:03:58,360 --> 00:04:05,600
Speaker 2: San Antonio Spurs dominated dominated the Cleveland Cavaliers in two

67
00:04:05,680 --> 00:04:09,520
Speaker 2: thousand and seven and they swept him four games to none.

68
00:04:09,600 --> 00:04:13,680
Speaker 2: Tony Parker was the MVP. And what's weird is we'll

69
00:04:13,720 --> 00:04:15,920
Speaker 2: sit there and go like it was so amazing. Lebron

70
00:04:16,000 --> 00:04:21,560
Speaker 2: took that team to the finals. They did, they did.

71
00:04:22,040 --> 00:04:25,720
Speaker 2: What's lost in that is, you know, there was a

72
00:04:26,160 --> 00:04:30,640
Speaker 2: Sixers team with Alan Iverson that got there. There was

73
00:04:30,680 --> 00:04:35,080
Speaker 2: an Orlando Magic team with Dwight Howard that got there.

74
00:04:35,839 --> 00:04:39,600
Speaker 2: There was a Boston Celtics team that was really loaded, obviously,

75
00:04:42,640 --> 00:04:45,320
Speaker 2: and obviously then we had those Heat teams that made

76
00:04:45,360 --> 00:04:47,719
Speaker 2: a run, the Cavs team that made a run, but

77
00:04:47,880 --> 00:04:50,839
Speaker 2: sprinkled in there. We had the Heat two years ago,

78
00:04:50,960 --> 00:04:56,520
Speaker 2: the Pacers this year. I even think you could say

79
00:04:56,520 --> 00:05:00,120
Speaker 2: the Celtics four years ago was a little early. And

80
00:05:00,520 --> 00:05:03,200
Speaker 2: the Milwaukee Bucks had been in the playoffs the year

81
00:05:03,200 --> 00:05:07,080
Speaker 2: after year after year. They only won the finals when

82
00:05:07,120 --> 00:05:10,640
Speaker 2: they one played the Do you guys remember who the

83
00:05:10,680 --> 00:05:13,600
Speaker 2: Bucks beat? I know, Bayer, does they beat the Phoenix

84
00:05:13,680 --> 00:05:18,039
Speaker 2: Suns coached by many Williams. The Sons were that year's

85
00:05:18,120 --> 00:05:20,560
Speaker 2: random team, but even then, the Milwaukee Bucks needed Kevin

86
00:05:20,640 --> 00:05:23,640
Speaker 2: Durant's team to fall apart with injuries and Katie had

87
00:05:23,640 --> 00:05:26,920
Speaker 2: his foot on the line. Otherwise they beat him in

88
00:05:26,960 --> 00:05:30,320
Speaker 2: Game seven at home without Kyrie Irving, without James Harden.

89
00:05:30,760 --> 00:05:36,120
Speaker 2: The point is that these there's a group of these

90
00:05:36,240 --> 00:05:40,279
Speaker 2: mostly Eastern Conference random teams that weren't the best team

91
00:05:40,640 --> 00:05:42,760
Speaker 2: or maybe even the second best team in their conference,

92
00:05:43,040 --> 00:05:45,400
Speaker 2: that got hot, went on a run or had a

93
00:05:45,400 --> 00:05:49,200
Speaker 2: good matchup and get to a finals, and as prisoners

94
00:05:49,240 --> 00:05:51,279
Speaker 2: of the moment, we lock in and believe they have

95
00:05:51,360 --> 00:05:54,599
Speaker 2: a chance. Now do I think the Pacers have a chance?

96
00:05:54,839 --> 00:05:59,160
Speaker 2: I do, But all of the data is telling you

97
00:05:59,200 --> 00:06:02,839
Speaker 2: Oklahoma City last two regular seasons have been great and

98
00:06:04,080 --> 00:06:07,240
Speaker 2: Denver was a hard matchup for him this year. Last

99
00:06:07,320 --> 00:06:09,800
Speaker 2: year was Dallas that was a hard matchup for him.

100
00:06:10,000 --> 00:06:14,360
Speaker 2: But otherwise they've been pretty dominant throughout and that's why

101
00:06:14,400 --> 00:06:19,120
Speaker 2: they're a substantial favorite in these NBA finals. And the

102
00:06:19,160 --> 00:06:21,240
Speaker 2: other part we have to look at with some of

103
00:06:21,279 --> 00:06:24,520
Speaker 2: these outlier teams that have made the finals from the

104
00:06:24,520 --> 00:06:29,479
Speaker 2: Eastern conferences, none of them won a championship. They just didn't.

105
00:06:30,279 --> 00:06:34,799
Speaker 2: None of them won a championship. So I'm not saying

106
00:06:34,839 --> 00:06:39,279
Speaker 2: it absolutely won't happen. Injuries can be problematic, and I'll

107
00:06:39,279 --> 00:06:40,720
Speaker 2: tell you and I'm going to get to what the

108
00:06:40,760 --> 00:06:46,520
Speaker 2: biggest I think non storyline storyline of people who watch

109
00:06:46,560 --> 00:06:53,920
Speaker 2: basketball will be, especially in Game one. But the likelihood

110
00:06:54,240 --> 00:06:58,080
Speaker 2: of a Pacer championship I think is fairly minimal. Not

111
00:06:58,160 --> 00:07:00,800
Speaker 2: because I don't like their team, or I don't like Indiana,

112
00:07:00,880 --> 00:07:03,760
Speaker 2: or right don't like Tyrese Haliburton. I just have data

113
00:07:03,800 --> 00:07:05,680
Speaker 2: that shows me Oklahoma City's probably the best team in

114
00:07:05,720 --> 00:07:07,839
Speaker 2: the NBA. They're playing like the best team in the NBA.

115
00:07:08,040 --> 00:07:09,920
Speaker 2: They have home court advantage, and they do have a

116
00:07:09,920 --> 00:07:12,960
Speaker 2: good home court advantage, and the pieces fit together. They

117
00:07:13,000 --> 00:07:16,160
Speaker 2: defend well, they rebound well. Like i'd like, tell me

118
00:07:16,160 --> 00:07:23,240
Speaker 2: what I'm missing, tell me what I'm missing. Here's it,

119
00:07:24,200 --> 00:07:29,040
Speaker 2: here's one. Here's an interesting one. Hey, tell me what

120
00:07:29,080 --> 00:07:32,480
Speaker 2: you think about this one. Stut Gottlieb Show here on

121
00:07:32,520 --> 00:07:36,840
Speaker 2: Fox Sports Radio. Basketball people, and I think a little

122
00:07:36,840 --> 00:07:40,200
Speaker 2: bit non basketball people are just fans byra What would

123
00:07:40,200 --> 00:07:44,360
Speaker 2: you say is the thing you're watching for tonight? That

124
00:07:44,480 --> 00:07:47,960
Speaker 2: might be the most telling. Obviously, in the game, but

125
00:07:48,000 --> 00:07:49,440
Speaker 2: then maybe in the series as well.

126
00:07:50,080 --> 00:07:54,000
Speaker 4: The thing I'm most watching for tonight is what happens

127
00:07:54,040 --> 00:07:57,640
Speaker 4: in the final six minutes of this game, where I

128
00:07:57,680 --> 00:08:00,760
Speaker 4: believe at some point Oklahoma City will have a lead.

129
00:08:01,520 --> 00:08:03,760
Speaker 4: And we saw it in the Bucks series, we saw

130
00:08:03,760 --> 00:08:06,040
Speaker 4: it in the cav series, we saw it in the

131
00:08:06,120 --> 00:08:10,800
Speaker 4: Knick series. Do the Pacers have that ability to come

132
00:08:10,840 --> 00:08:13,080
Speaker 4: back from a deficit and do what they did so

133
00:08:13,160 --> 00:08:16,440
Speaker 4: the previous three teams? Is Oklahoma City immune to that?

134
00:08:17,000 --> 00:08:19,120
Speaker 4: And It's not that I'm going to tune in at

135
00:08:19,120 --> 00:08:22,120
Speaker 4: the six minute mark of the game, right, but it's

136
00:08:22,280 --> 00:08:26,160
Speaker 4: just the fact of does this magical run continue for

137
00:08:26,240 --> 00:08:27,520
Speaker 4: the Indiana Pacers.

138
00:08:29,160 --> 00:08:31,960
Speaker 2: I'll buttress that remarks with this and this I'm not

139
00:08:32,000 --> 00:08:34,240
Speaker 2: gonna act like this is my own original thought. I

140
00:08:34,280 --> 00:08:36,280
Speaker 2: had an NBA assistant tell me the cool thing about

141
00:08:36,280 --> 00:08:39,000
Speaker 2: the Pacers is these things they did in the regular

142
00:08:39,040 --> 00:08:42,640
Speaker 2: season as well, and they play with a plan late

143
00:08:42,679 --> 00:08:44,760
Speaker 2: in the game, and that they don't just come down

144
00:08:44,800 --> 00:08:48,400
Speaker 2: and take, you know, off balance threes and hope for

145
00:08:48,440 --> 00:08:50,480
Speaker 2: them to come in like they actually have a plan.

146
00:08:50,640 --> 00:08:52,840
Speaker 2: In this particular case, We're going to keep playing with

147
00:08:52,880 --> 00:08:55,520
Speaker 2: our pace, playing with our tempo, but also now really

148
00:08:55,559 --> 00:08:58,640
Speaker 2: trying to lock in on shooting some threes, and it

149
00:08:58,679 --> 00:09:01,840
Speaker 2: has worked for I think the biggest thing I'm looking

150
00:09:01,880 --> 00:09:05,719
Speaker 2: for is how the game is officiated. How it's officiated,

151
00:09:06,280 --> 00:09:09,520
Speaker 2: and we will hyper focus obviously on Shae whether or

152
00:09:09,520 --> 00:09:11,560
Speaker 2: not he can draw fouls in the lane. But I

153
00:09:11,559 --> 00:09:14,320
Speaker 2: think it's generally a level of physicality that both teams

154
00:09:14,360 --> 00:09:18,160
Speaker 2: play with. Both teams are crazy physical, both teams have

155
00:09:18,240 --> 00:09:21,240
Speaker 2: great depth, and both teams play a style where they're like,

156
00:09:21,800 --> 00:09:24,320
Speaker 2: you know, if if you call a foul, that's fine.

157
00:09:24,360 --> 00:09:27,640
Speaker 2: You're not gonna call everyone. And there's just such a

158
00:09:27,720 --> 00:09:34,560
Speaker 2: dramatic difference in how the games are played and who

159
00:09:34,600 --> 00:09:38,679
Speaker 2: should be favored based upon how the game is officiated.

160
00:09:39,320 --> 00:09:42,199
Speaker 2: If it's a tightly officiated game, I think it favors

161
00:09:42,240 --> 00:09:45,480
Speaker 2: the thunder. I just do it means Shae marches to

162
00:09:45,520 --> 00:09:48,640
Speaker 2: the free throw line. I also think because of their youth,

163
00:09:49,480 --> 00:09:52,280
Speaker 2: remember it's the youngest team in the NBA, one of

164
00:09:52,280 --> 00:09:53,920
Speaker 2: the things that the Pacers have a tendency to do

165
00:09:54,000 --> 00:09:56,000
Speaker 2: is run you off the court because early in the

166
00:09:56,000 --> 00:09:57,640
Speaker 2: first half you're laying the ball in, You're like, man,

167
00:09:57,640 --> 00:09:59,560
Speaker 2: this is great, We're just scoring easily. And then you

168
00:09:59,559 --> 00:10:05,079
Speaker 2: get tied. I don't know if this team does get tired. So, uh,

169
00:10:05,920 --> 00:10:09,000
Speaker 2: that's it's a solid here's a shake. Gilden sala Zander

170
00:10:09,000 --> 00:10:10,280
Speaker 2: talk about what his team needs to do to win

171
00:10:10,280 --> 00:10:10,720
Speaker 2: the series.

172
00:10:11,520 --> 00:10:13,560
Speaker 5: Staying true to who we are is the reason why

173
00:10:13,559 --> 00:10:15,520
Speaker 5: we're here. We'd be doing ourselves at disservice if we

174
00:10:15,720 --> 00:10:18,040
Speaker 5: if we change or try to be something we're not.

175
00:10:18,320 --> 00:10:20,920
Speaker 5: Once we got here, we've had success doing so if

176
00:10:20,920 --> 00:10:22,640
Speaker 5: we want to keep having success, we have to be

177
00:10:22,679 --> 00:10:25,000
Speaker 5: who we are. And it's organic. So it's nothing like

178
00:10:25,000 --> 00:10:26,319
Speaker 5: we have to think about our for us. It just

179
00:10:26,360 --> 00:10:28,120
Speaker 5: it's who we are, no matter the moment.

180
00:10:29,200 --> 00:10:31,760
Speaker 2: Stut Gottlieb show here on Fox Sports Traders, stay who

181
00:10:31,760 --> 00:10:36,600
Speaker 2: we are. Here's his counterpoint, Tyrese Haliburton on what his

182
00:10:36,640 --> 00:10:37,959
Speaker 2: team needs to do to be successful.

183
00:10:38,440 --> 00:10:41,000
Speaker 6: They're historically great on both sides of the ball. They

184
00:10:41,040 --> 00:10:44,000
Speaker 6: have the MVP. I mean, there's so many different things

185
00:10:44,000 --> 00:10:45,800
Speaker 6: that you could name down the list of why they

186
00:10:45,840 --> 00:10:48,080
Speaker 6: are so great at what they do and why they're

187
00:10:48,080 --> 00:10:49,360
Speaker 6: such a great team. If you want to go through

188
00:10:49,360 --> 00:10:50,920
Speaker 6: the best team, you want to go through the best challenge.

189
00:10:50,920 --> 00:10:53,320
Speaker 6: So this is the best challenge, and this is the

190
00:10:53,360 --> 00:10:54,719
Speaker 6: best team in the NBA has been the best team

191
00:10:54,720 --> 00:10:57,600
Speaker 6: in the NBA all year. And they're well coach, they

192
00:10:57,679 --> 00:11:00,360
Speaker 6: just they just do everything so well. So there's no

193
00:11:00,400 --> 00:11:02,520
Speaker 6: shortcuts to beating this team. And we know the auds

194
00:11:02,520 --> 00:11:04,320
Speaker 6: are talked against us, but you know, it.

195
00:11:04,240 --> 00:11:04,839
Speaker 7: Is what it is.

196
00:11:05,720 --> 00:11:07,679
Speaker 2: It is what it is. Doug Gottlieb Show here on

206
00:11:37,200 --> 00:11:39,880
Speaker 2: Let me get you to Dan Fire for the update.

207
00:11:43,000 --> 00:11:45,120
Speaker 7: Breaking news from Fox Sports.

208
00:11:45,200 --> 00:11:47,360
Speaker 4: Doug. It's breaking news, but I don't know if it's

209
00:11:47,400 --> 00:11:50,800
Speaker 4: surprising news. A report from the NFL network says free

210
00:11:50,800 --> 00:11:54,480
Speaker 4: age of quarterback Aaron Rodgers has told the Steelers he

211
00:11:54,520 --> 00:11:56,960
Speaker 4: will sign a one year deal to play in Pittsburgh

212
00:11:57,040 --> 00:11:58,480
Speaker 4: in the twenty twenty five season.

213
00:11:59,640 --> 00:12:00,760
Speaker 2: That's that's big to us.

214
00:12:00,880 --> 00:12:07,040
Speaker 4: Jerry Dulac of the Pittsburgh The Pittsburgh Post Gazette. Yes,

215
00:12:07,280 --> 00:12:09,920
Speaker 4: I had to get the both of them in, says Rogers.

216
00:12:10,120 --> 00:12:12,920
Speaker 4: Expect is expected to attend minute camp next week.

217
00:12:13,240 --> 00:12:19,280
Speaker 2: Oh, Aaron Rodgers, out of the darkness, retreat and into

218
00:12:19,320 --> 00:12:27,640
Speaker 2: the into the Steelers. Jay Stu, what is give me

219
00:12:27,679 --> 00:12:30,120
Speaker 2: the one word to describe your emotion? When you hear that.

220
00:12:31,840 --> 00:12:34,479
Speaker 3: Very predictable, that's my emotion.

221
00:12:34,640 --> 00:12:38,280
Speaker 2: That's your emotion. Yeah, oh, I'm I'm actually surprised. You

222
00:12:38,320 --> 00:12:42,079
Speaker 2: know why? What do you always say that you root for?

223
00:12:44,040 --> 00:12:45,600
Speaker 2: What do you root for in your job? What are

224
00:12:45,600 --> 00:12:45,880
Speaker 2: you root for?

225
00:12:46,000 --> 00:12:49,960
Speaker 3: I root for chaos, discomfort? Root for content?

226
00:12:50,400 --> 00:12:55,240
Speaker 2: Content? Aaron Rodgers in the NFL. Aaron Rodgers with the

227
00:12:55,240 --> 00:12:59,360
Speaker 2: Pittsburgh Steelers. Aaron Rodgers no showing and not telling anybody

228
00:12:59,400 --> 00:13:02,000
Speaker 2: until now and then early June, be like, yep, gonna

229
00:13:02,000 --> 00:13:04,360
Speaker 2: play for the Steelers. Does that fit the bill?

230
00:13:05,480 --> 00:13:07,480
Speaker 3: Yeah? Aaron Rodgers A great content.

231
00:13:07,400 --> 00:13:13,480
Speaker 2: Right exactly. So here's what I here's this is. We're

232
00:13:13,559 --> 00:13:16,439
Speaker 2: rolling on this. So we'll put this on social media, okay,

233
00:13:17,440 --> 00:13:22,400
Speaker 2: that you will have people say one hundred different takes

234
00:13:23,760 --> 00:13:27,760
Speaker 2: on Aaron Rodgers playing this year for the Steelers. Here's

235
00:13:27,800 --> 00:13:31,800
Speaker 2: the only one that matters. Okay, and it's not because

236
00:13:32,640 --> 00:13:36,040
Speaker 2: I'm saying it. I'm saying it because it's the take

237
00:13:36,080 --> 00:13:42,000
Speaker 2: that matters. This is phenomenally good news. It doesn't mean

238
00:13:42,040 --> 00:13:44,679
Speaker 2: the Steelers are gonna win the Super Bowl, doesn't even

239
00:13:44,679 --> 00:13:47,000
Speaker 2: mean to make the playoffs, doesn't mean you'll have a

240
00:13:47,000 --> 00:13:51,480
Speaker 2: great season. What it does mean is how can you

241
00:13:51,520 --> 00:13:56,160
Speaker 2: not pay attention to the Steelers? And in the Steelers defense,

242
00:13:56,600 --> 00:14:01,200
Speaker 2: they've gone how many years without quality quarterback play. It

243
00:14:01,240 --> 00:14:03,679
Speaker 2: doesn't mean Aaron Rodgers is going to be vintage or

244
00:14:03,760 --> 00:14:06,600
Speaker 2: even end of last season in Rogers. He may stink,

245
00:14:07,320 --> 00:14:09,960
Speaker 2: but it makes sense because he was the best possible

246
00:14:10,000 --> 00:14:15,480
Speaker 2: option for a team that just needs a quarterback. He's

247
00:14:15,480 --> 00:14:18,880
Speaker 2: now going to play for another historic franchise, Packers being one,

248
00:14:18,920 --> 00:14:21,760
Speaker 2: Steelers being the next. I don't view the Jets as

249
00:14:21,760 --> 00:14:24,560
Speaker 2: a historic franchise, despite the fact they pulled off what's

250
00:14:24,560 --> 00:14:27,480
Speaker 2: seemed to be the biggest upset in Super Bowl history.

251
00:14:28,440 --> 00:14:33,080
Speaker 2: But more than anything, it's awesome. One of the greatest

252
00:14:33,160 --> 00:14:37,520
Speaker 2: quarterbacks of our lifetime has committed to playing another year

253
00:14:37,560 --> 00:14:40,960
Speaker 2: in the NFL for one of the story franchises and

254
00:14:41,480 --> 00:14:44,960
Speaker 2: a long tenured head coach who everybody likes and we

255
00:14:45,000 --> 00:14:47,200
Speaker 2: all give a pass because, ah, he doesn't have a

256
00:14:47,240 --> 00:14:51,240
Speaker 2: quarterback now he does, and a defense and then the

257
00:14:51,240 --> 00:14:54,360
Speaker 2: Steelers and they tailor made it and got rid of

258
00:14:54,400 --> 00:14:58,240
Speaker 2: their problem child wide receiver, brought in all these tight ends.

259
00:14:58,720 --> 00:15:00,680
Speaker 2: It all seems to work on paper, and it doesn't

260
00:15:00,680 --> 00:15:04,920
Speaker 2: matter if it does work, because if you can't be great,

261
00:15:05,000 --> 00:15:10,640
Speaker 2: at least be interesting. And the Steelers are interesting. Have

262
00:15:10,720 --> 00:15:14,000
Speaker 2: you looked at the I don't love schedule watching, as

263
00:15:14,040 --> 00:15:17,760
Speaker 2: we know, but there are two that pop up on

264
00:15:17,760 --> 00:15:21,800
Speaker 2: that schedule for the Pittsburgh Steelers, which feel very delicious

265
00:15:22,000 --> 00:15:26,840
Speaker 2: to take a bite out of. Actually three three games

266
00:15:28,200 --> 00:15:32,760
Speaker 2: they open the season in New York or in Jersey

267
00:15:33,160 --> 00:15:37,800
Speaker 2: against the Jets. The fourth fourth game of the season

268
00:15:38,200 --> 00:15:44,360
Speaker 2: is in Pittsburgh against the Vikings, and after the bye week,

269
00:15:44,400 --> 00:15:46,800
Speaker 2: in a couple more games. I think they're in this

270
00:15:47,040 --> 00:15:50,960
Speaker 2: game seven week eight Sunday Night football. They take on

271
00:15:50,960 --> 00:15:57,400
Speaker 2: their Green Bay Packers. Green Bay Packers. So whether or

272
00:15:57,400 --> 00:16:00,160
Speaker 2: not the Steelers win or lose doesn't matter to any

273
00:16:00,200 --> 00:16:02,400
Speaker 2: of us, and definitely doesn't matter to the NFL. The

274
00:16:02,520 --> 00:16:08,800
Speaker 2: NFL won today, kids, They won today, and they won

275
00:16:08,840 --> 00:16:12,520
Speaker 2: today in no small part because look at the games.

276
00:16:12,800 --> 00:16:18,320
Speaker 2: CBS gets the Jets game. I think that game, the

277
00:16:18,560 --> 00:16:22,600
Speaker 2: uh oh, the Vikings game is not in Pittsburgh, right,

278
00:16:22,640 --> 00:16:23,600
Speaker 2: it's somewhere else.

279
00:16:25,040 --> 00:16:26,080
Speaker 4: Dublin, Ireland is.

280
00:16:28,320 --> 00:16:32,000
Speaker 2: Ireland. And so the NFL network wins on that one.

281
00:16:32,240 --> 00:16:35,320
Speaker 2: And why is it? It's won because that's the Vikings,

282
00:16:35,320 --> 00:16:37,680
Speaker 2: the team that he reportedly wonted to play for, right,

283
00:16:38,320 --> 00:16:45,800
Speaker 2: and then the Packers is NBC. Everybody wins. Everybody wins.

284
00:16:48,000 --> 00:16:51,560
Speaker 2: Buyer your reaction as a native Wisconsin but also somebody

285
00:16:51,560 --> 00:16:53,120
Speaker 2: who has never been a big Rogers guy.

286
00:16:53,320 --> 00:16:55,800
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's about time. Like he needs to be in.

287
00:16:55,840 --> 00:16:58,120
Speaker 4: He needs for the betterment of the team. This shouldn't

288
00:16:58,160 --> 00:17:01,040
Speaker 4: have gone. It shouldn't go up to training camp. It

289
00:17:01,040 --> 00:17:04,200
Speaker 4: shouldn't be one of those things I thought he should

290
00:17:04,240 --> 00:17:05,679
Speaker 4: have been there prior. I think he should have been

291
00:17:05,680 --> 00:17:07,479
Speaker 4: there these last couple of weeks. I know he has

292
00:17:07,520 --> 00:17:10,840
Speaker 4: done throwing sessions, but I at least will give him

293
00:17:10,880 --> 00:17:12,280
Speaker 4: a tip of the cap to be like, all right,

294
00:17:12,600 --> 00:17:14,600
Speaker 4: let's see it, let's do work. And he's going to

295
00:17:14,640 --> 00:17:15,680
Speaker 4: be doing work in June.

296
00:17:17,880 --> 00:17:20,399
Speaker 2: I'm excited. Have I won you over jas too? Because

311
00:17:57,680 --> 00:17:59,560
Speaker 8: Oh? I think it had to happen, right. Do you

312
00:17:59,600 --> 00:18:04,719
Speaker 8: know that you always you always get jobs before they're announced.

313
00:18:04,880 --> 00:18:08,320
Speaker 8: And everything seemed way too obvious that he was going

314
00:18:08,400 --> 00:18:09,960
Speaker 8: to go there. What a Steelers going to do? No

315
00:18:10,000 --> 00:18:12,560
Speaker 8: matter what Donald Trump says, Mason Rudolphe is not the

316
00:18:12,640 --> 00:18:14,480
Speaker 8: answer to anything. But a good looking guy with a

317
00:18:14,520 --> 00:18:18,680
Speaker 8: good mustache, and good for him. It looks like he'll

318
00:18:18,720 --> 00:18:22,000
Speaker 8: be there for Minny Camp so good. I was hoping

319
00:18:22,000 --> 00:18:24,600
Speaker 8: the Colts would get him now that Anthony Richardson is

320
00:18:24,640 --> 00:18:27,840
Speaker 8: once again hurt, but he doesn't. He goes to the Steelers,

321
00:18:27,840 --> 00:18:29,240
Speaker 8: And I think that was pretty obvious.

322
00:18:30,680 --> 00:18:35,040
Speaker 2: Let's get to basketball. Obviously, you know, as a former

323
00:18:35,040 --> 00:18:38,919
Speaker 2: head coach, longtime basketball analist or now you cover all things.

324
00:18:40,600 --> 00:18:44,000
Speaker 2: If you were describe the Pacers run to the finals,

325
00:18:44,160 --> 00:18:44,720
Speaker 2: what would it be?

326
00:18:49,119 --> 00:18:52,600
Speaker 8: I was gonna say predictable because of how they played

327
00:18:52,600 --> 00:18:56,240
Speaker 8: the second half of the season. People don't really understand

328
00:18:56,280 --> 00:18:58,960
Speaker 8: they've been I think they had the best record, tied

329
00:18:59,000 --> 00:19:02,280
Speaker 8: with maybe Cleveland in the East second half of the season.

330
00:19:02,320 --> 00:19:04,720
Speaker 8: And here's why. I don't know if it's predictable to

331
00:19:04,720 --> 00:19:06,879
Speaker 8: go to the finals. You haven't gone in twenty five years.

332
00:19:06,880 --> 00:19:09,760
Speaker 8: But unsurprising, let's put it that way. The people that

333
00:19:09,800 --> 00:19:13,560
Speaker 8: paid attention because they Doug you know this. I know

334
00:19:13,800 --> 00:19:15,400
Speaker 8: I saw something the other day. You know, you got

335
00:19:15,400 --> 00:19:16,960
Speaker 8: to go through hard times, I think is what you

336
00:19:16,960 --> 00:19:20,680
Speaker 8: guys put out on Twitter, and the Pacers did. Haliburton

337
00:19:20,720 --> 00:19:23,760
Speaker 8: was terrible early in the year. He admitted he was terrible.

338
00:19:23,760 --> 00:19:27,000
Speaker 8: He was soft, he wasn't guarding, and you know when

339
00:19:27,000 --> 00:19:29,159
Speaker 8: you go through hard times and then all of a sudden,

340
00:19:29,200 --> 00:19:32,639
Speaker 8: since January first, you're playing as good as basketball as

341
00:19:32,680 --> 00:19:34,840
Speaker 8: there is in Your point guard's going nine point eight

342
00:19:34,880 --> 00:19:38,399
Speaker 8: to one and a half, assist the turnovers, and you

343
00:19:38,440 --> 00:19:40,880
Speaker 8: have real talent on the team. All that stuff is good.

344
00:19:40,880 --> 00:19:42,440
Speaker 8: If you don't have real talent, it doesn't matter. But

345
00:19:42,480 --> 00:19:46,560
Speaker 8: they got real talent. The Opkins a real dude. Nemahart

346
00:19:47,119 --> 00:19:49,000
Speaker 8: is seen as a guy that's tough, but he's a

347
00:19:49,000 --> 00:19:51,879
Speaker 8: perfect fit guy. And Nei Smith is way better than

348
00:19:51,880 --> 00:19:54,600
Speaker 8: anybody gives him credit for. I think people are seeing it.

349
00:19:54,640 --> 00:19:58,600
Speaker 8: So I would have said, you know, not surprising, maybe

350
00:19:58,640 --> 00:20:02,359
Speaker 8: not predictable. This is a good basketball team, and they've

351
00:20:02,359 --> 00:20:05,160
Speaker 8: played very very They played as well as any NBA

352
00:20:05,240 --> 00:20:08,360
Speaker 8: team second half of the season, and isn't that what matters?

353
00:20:08,800 --> 00:20:11,280
Speaker 8: You know, the first half of the season is great,

354
00:20:11,680 --> 00:20:14,000
Speaker 8: but you know, it's a pretty big sample size since

355
00:20:14,080 --> 00:20:16,160
Speaker 8: January one, and they've been very, very good.

356
00:20:16,960 --> 00:20:19,600
Speaker 2: Why do you think Haliburton has these games where he's

357
00:20:19,720 --> 00:20:20,880
Speaker 2: just a guy out there?

358
00:20:21,520 --> 00:20:23,640
Speaker 8: I don't know, Doug, It's frustrating. You know, you look

359
00:20:23,640 --> 00:20:26,200
Speaker 8: at the numbers. Just if he just took the numbers

360
00:20:26,560 --> 00:20:29,159
Speaker 8: and then their losses, he's eight point six assists. In

361
00:20:29,200 --> 00:20:32,879
Speaker 8: their wins, he's thirty two or fifteen, you know, it was,

362
00:20:33,280 --> 00:20:37,200
Speaker 8: honest to god, It's frustrating because Doug, you know, point guard,

363
00:20:37,480 --> 00:20:40,080
Speaker 8: you know this better than anybody. Point guard said other people.

364
00:20:40,119 --> 00:20:42,400
Speaker 8: But he's asked to score. And he would do this

365
00:20:42,560 --> 00:20:45,879
Speaker 8: constantly in both of the games where he was just

366
00:20:45,880 --> 00:20:49,320
Speaker 8: a guy. He would go down the lane and as

367
00:20:49,400 --> 00:20:52,879
Speaker 8: he was clearing the perimeter into the lane, you know,

368
00:20:52,920 --> 00:20:54,840
Speaker 8: he's got a nice float game, he's got a nice

369
00:20:54,840 --> 00:20:57,760
Speaker 8: pull up game. He was not looking to score. He

370
00:20:57,880 --> 00:21:01,120
Speaker 8: was looking to pass. And the pass out weren't an

371
00:21:01,160 --> 00:21:07,680
Speaker 8: advantation advantageous pass out. You know. It was almost like Doug,

372
00:21:07,720 --> 00:21:09,359
Speaker 8: I swear to god, it was. It was almost like

373
00:21:09,400 --> 00:21:13,440
Speaker 8: he had scripted in his own money. I'm not scoring today, Like, okay, great,

374
00:21:13,520 --> 00:21:16,560
Speaker 8: but that's that's not good. He's got to be a dude.

375
00:21:16,680 --> 00:21:20,280
Speaker 8: I got to be a real dude and score first

376
00:21:20,440 --> 00:21:24,560
Speaker 8: past second when he gets past the perimeter defense. It's

377
00:21:24,600 --> 00:21:27,280
Speaker 8: frustrating as hell. The while he passed up so many

378
00:21:27,359 --> 00:21:30,120
Speaker 8: shots that he is so good at in the two

379
00:21:30,160 --> 00:21:32,160
Speaker 8: games where he was bad and he can't be bad

380
00:21:32,200 --> 00:21:35,040
Speaker 8: in this series. He's bad in the game. Pacers are

381
00:21:35,080 --> 00:21:37,280
Speaker 8: going to lose. No, not to be fifteen to Zip.

382
00:21:37,720 --> 00:21:40,040
Speaker 8: It's funny he went thirty two points fifteen. The Zip

383
00:21:40,080 --> 00:21:43,760
Speaker 8: assist the turnovers sex was Isaiah Thomas, you know, the

384
00:21:43,840 --> 00:21:46,480
Speaker 8: Detroit Isaiah Thomas and you ever do that, He's like

385
00:21:46,600 --> 00:21:50,760
Speaker 8: you do no, you know, nobody does that. He doesn't

386
00:21:50,800 --> 00:21:52,560
Speaker 8: have to be that guy every night, but he can

387
00:21:52,720 --> 00:21:54,399
Speaker 8: have a couple of games like he had that New

388
00:21:54,480 --> 00:21:56,760
Speaker 8: York Shires, just as you said, another guy.

389
00:21:57,320 --> 00:22:00,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, Dan Docus Jonius don't at me on Outkicking is

390
00:22:00,480 --> 00:22:02,160
Speaker 2: his show. He joins me on the Doug Otlib Show

391
00:22:02,160 --> 00:22:06,639
Speaker 2: on Fox Sports Radio. You've been at this long time player,

392
00:22:06,680 --> 00:22:12,240
Speaker 2: coach now broadcaster Rick Carlisle. What what makes him special?

393
00:22:14,480 --> 00:22:18,040
Speaker 8: Talking to Scott Pollard, who played you a long time

394
00:22:18,040 --> 00:22:20,560
Speaker 8: in the NBA, played for Rick first time, he made

395
00:22:20,560 --> 00:22:22,920
Speaker 8: an interesting point that Mark Boyle, the voice of the Paciers,

396
00:22:22,920 --> 00:22:25,320
Speaker 8: said the same thing. When he was first here, he

397
00:22:25,440 --> 00:22:28,919
Speaker 8: was very controlling. He was very eight seconds, everybody got

398
00:22:29,000 --> 00:22:30,479
Speaker 8: to look over him, run the play. He didn't run

399
00:22:30,480 --> 00:22:32,200
Speaker 8: the play right. You're coming out that kind of thing.

400
00:22:33,080 --> 00:22:36,280
Speaker 8: And I think like players and most coaches do this.

401
00:22:37,160 --> 00:22:38,960
Speaker 8: You know, you're trying to improve all the time. Most

402
00:22:38,960 --> 00:22:41,720
Speaker 8: people try to do that. And I really believe that

403
00:22:41,880 --> 00:22:43,960
Speaker 8: he learned, and I've heard this from other people that

404
00:22:44,080 --> 00:22:48,840
Speaker 8: know Rick, that he learned. Okay, let's make sure that

405
00:22:48,920 --> 00:22:52,000
Speaker 8: we adapt on two areas. One the way the game

406
00:22:52,080 --> 00:22:54,680
Speaker 8: is being played now. You know it's a more open game,

407
00:22:54,720 --> 00:22:56,919
Speaker 8: three point shooting. You got to adapt to that. And

408
00:22:56,960 --> 00:22:59,639
Speaker 8: then second thing is adapt to the people that we

409
00:22:59,760 --> 00:23:03,600
Speaker 8: have and anybody that has that. I've talked to it.

410
00:23:03,640 --> 00:23:06,240
Speaker 8: I've talked to people inside the organization and in others.

411
00:23:06,760 --> 00:23:09,399
Speaker 8: They say he's done an amazing job at that. You know,

412
00:23:09,400 --> 00:23:11,160
Speaker 8: when he had Dirk, he set things up for Dirk,

413
00:23:11,160 --> 00:23:12,920
Speaker 8: and if you think about it, you know he set

414
00:23:12,960 --> 00:23:15,840
Speaker 8: a defensive strategy. He know as an offensive coach, but

415
00:23:15,920 --> 00:23:18,360
Speaker 8: he's had a defensive strategy that beat Lebron and those

416
00:23:18,400 --> 00:23:21,920
Speaker 8: guys you know back in the day with Dirk Novinsky

417
00:23:22,000 --> 00:23:26,800
Speaker 8: and an older Jason Kidd. And I think that's a

418
00:23:26,800 --> 00:23:30,320
Speaker 8: big part of it. I think that that championship earned

419
00:23:30,359 --> 00:23:32,119
Speaker 8: him the trust. And I also think this Doug. I

420
00:23:32,160 --> 00:23:35,280
Speaker 8: think when you look at organizations and you look at

421
00:23:35,280 --> 00:23:39,080
Speaker 8: the Pacers, the ownership, the signment's very stable, whether it's

422
00:23:39,520 --> 00:23:42,040
Speaker 8: you know, Herb or the sons and Mels passed away,

423
00:23:42,080 --> 00:23:44,200
Speaker 8: but Herber the Sons, and then you look at Kevin

424
00:23:44,240 --> 00:23:47,320
Speaker 8: Pritchard and Shad Buchan and the president and general manager,

425
00:23:47,960 --> 00:23:50,760
Speaker 8: they're all in line. There's no drama, zero and you

426
00:23:50,840 --> 00:23:53,840
Speaker 8: got a mature adult in the room with a proven

427
00:23:53,880 --> 00:23:57,760
Speaker 8: pedigree in Rick Carlo. The whole thing is straight down

428
00:23:57,800 --> 00:24:00,480
Speaker 8: the line. There's no wavering, there's no oh yeah, but

429
00:24:00,600 --> 00:24:04,320
Speaker 8: there's no drama. There's literally no drama. And they don't

430
00:24:04,359 --> 00:24:06,879
Speaker 8: have choir boys. Nobody does. But they have no drama

431
00:24:06,920 --> 00:24:11,600
Speaker 8: on their team, man, And everybody tells me a lot

432
00:24:11,640 --> 00:24:13,760
Speaker 8: of that's do to the straight line. You just go

433
00:24:13,840 --> 00:24:20,560
Speaker 8: straight down from Herb Simon and the Sons to Pritchard

434
00:24:20,880 --> 00:24:25,320
Speaker 8: Buchanan to Carlisle Halliburton, they're all kind of everybody's on

435
00:24:25,320 --> 00:24:27,840
Speaker 8: the same page. Dog, everybody's pulling in the same direction.

436
00:24:30,040 --> 00:24:32,920
Speaker 2: It's the Doug Gottlieb Show here on Fox Sport Trago.

437
00:24:32,960 --> 00:24:35,560
Speaker 2: Didn't you have an Indiana senator on earlier this week

438
00:24:35,600 --> 00:24:36,399
Speaker 2: talking about Angel?

439
00:24:38,000 --> 00:24:40,480
Speaker 8: Yeah, Jim Banks. People in India are a little pissed

440
00:24:40,520 --> 00:24:46,159
Speaker 8: at the Fever and a third time that what's her name?

441
00:24:46,240 --> 00:24:52,080
Speaker 8: Angel Reese and her crew have accused falsely Fever fans

442
00:24:52,119 --> 00:24:55,720
Speaker 8: of being racist, and no one's stepping up for Fever fans,

443
00:24:55,760 --> 00:24:59,040
Speaker 8: and Jim Banks said, look, we're owed an apology by somebody,

444
00:24:59,440 --> 00:25:02,359
Speaker 8: you know, The Fever haven't apologized to their fans. The

445
00:25:02,520 --> 00:25:05,560
Speaker 8: NBA or the WNBA hasn't said anything other than yeah,

446
00:25:05,600 --> 00:25:08,880
Speaker 8: we didn't find anything to substantiate it. And I got friends.

447
00:25:08,920 --> 00:25:11,080
Speaker 8: This really hit me. I got friend he said, Dad,

448
00:25:11,119 --> 00:25:13,880
Speaker 8: I was sitting in the area. He is, there wasn't

449
00:25:13,880 --> 00:25:16,720
Speaker 8: a word said racist because we had African American Ussians.

450
00:25:16,760 --> 00:25:18,800
Speaker 8: You think they're going to take that, you think And

451
00:25:19,520 --> 00:25:22,199
Speaker 8: he said, like, I spent twenty five thirty five thousand

452
00:25:22,200 --> 00:25:25,000
Speaker 8: dollars a year bring my daughter to game, by season tickets,

453
00:25:25,000 --> 00:25:27,760
Speaker 8: by all this stuff. I spent a blank ton of money.

454
00:25:28,440 --> 00:25:31,359
Speaker 8: And he's like, you know, now you're known as a

455
00:25:31,480 --> 00:25:35,880
Speaker 8: racist person because the Fever don't ever say, hey, this

456
00:25:35,960 --> 00:25:38,760
Speaker 8: isn't our fan base. We could. We don't condone being

457
00:25:38,760 --> 00:25:42,760
Speaker 8: accused of something the WNBA. I don't expect Angel Reese

458
00:25:43,440 --> 00:25:47,919
Speaker 8: to apologize, but our team should. It's ridiculous and it's

459
00:25:48,000 --> 00:25:50,480
Speaker 8: the third time, and you know, enough's enough. You know

460
00:25:50,640 --> 00:25:53,560
Speaker 8: you know this, everybody knows this. Somebody's trying to say

461
00:25:53,680 --> 00:25:55,679
Speaker 8: nonsense about you. The only way to stop it is

462
00:25:55,720 --> 00:25:59,320
Speaker 8: to confront it. And been disappointed as hell in them,

463
00:25:59,359 --> 00:26:03,280
Speaker 8: been disappointed in the leadership in Jim Banks State senator said,

464
00:26:03,320 --> 00:26:05,800
Speaker 8: you know what, I stand with our people. We're on

465
00:26:05,880 --> 00:26:08,239
Speaker 8: apology and I agree with it. I totally agree with him.

466
00:26:08,280 --> 00:26:11,080
Speaker 8: Jim Bank's a good guy. Obviously there's more important things,

467
00:26:11,600 --> 00:26:13,560
Speaker 8: you know, but he's on my show, a sports show,

468
00:26:13,960 --> 00:26:15,679
Speaker 8: so we're going to talk about it, you know, So

469
00:26:16,600 --> 00:26:18,680
Speaker 8: good for him. Man, he stood up for the people

470
00:26:18,720 --> 00:26:19,320
Speaker 8: of Indiana.

471
00:26:19,720 --> 00:26:22,199
Speaker 2: Well, I agree with you. I mean, my first thing is,

472
00:26:22,280 --> 00:26:24,320
Speaker 2: I don't know if it was Angel Reese's people was

473
00:26:25,200 --> 00:26:28,480
Speaker 2: Here's the biggest issue I have is why do so

474
00:26:28,560 --> 00:26:32,040
Speaker 2: many pay attention to people who don't matter on Twitter?

475
00:26:35,160 --> 00:26:38,680
Speaker 2: What I mean again, there's there's some common sense there.

476
00:26:39,200 --> 00:26:41,840
Speaker 2: Like I'm not saying that there's not people who are

477
00:26:41,960 --> 00:26:44,679
Speaker 2: racist in the state of Indiana. I mean again, percentage wise,

478
00:26:45,240 --> 00:26:48,560
Speaker 2: you know, even if it's half of one percent, that

479
00:26:48,640 --> 00:26:51,400
Speaker 2: there's still that's a number of people. But the likelihood

480
00:26:51,400 --> 00:26:56,399
Speaker 2: of them attending a fever game, right and only doing

481
00:26:56,440 --> 00:26:59,879
Speaker 2: this with Angel Reese and it's because you picked it

482
00:26:59,920 --> 00:27:02,520
Speaker 2: up up and you're watching a highlight on social media.

483
00:27:02,640 --> 00:27:06,439
Speaker 2: It's just again, I just I'm blown away by how

484
00:27:06,520 --> 00:27:09,240
Speaker 2: many people care about people we shouldn't care about.

485
00:27:09,720 --> 00:27:12,480
Speaker 8: Doug, if you go to a fever game, which I have,

486
00:27:13,960 --> 00:27:18,520
Speaker 8: it's all little girls, their moms, their dads. I mean,

487
00:27:18,600 --> 00:27:23,199
Speaker 8: this is not a Boston Celtics against the Lakers crowd

488
00:27:23,240 --> 00:27:26,000
Speaker 8: in nineteen eighty six, you know, I mean, I mean,

489
00:27:26,040 --> 00:27:29,880
Speaker 8: it's like you know, I mean, everybody's dressing the Caitlin

490
00:27:29,920 --> 00:27:34,480
Speaker 8: Clark yellow, whether it's Iowa, whether it's the Fever. And

491
00:27:34,640 --> 00:27:36,320
Speaker 8: a couple of my actually two of my buddies that

492
00:27:36,400 --> 00:27:38,280
Speaker 8: sat in the area go, I don't know what the

493
00:27:38,320 --> 00:27:40,920
Speaker 8: hell you know, you can make something up out of anything.

494
00:27:41,000 --> 00:27:45,440
Speaker 8: In fact, the initial thought was they were talking about

495
00:27:45,480 --> 00:27:48,600
Speaker 8: people booing when Angel Reis got the ball, like you know,

496
00:27:48,800 --> 00:27:52,480
Speaker 8: people doing college basketball the time. But I'm with you, brother,

497
00:27:52,880 --> 00:27:55,200
Speaker 8: you know you here's the problem. You make an allegation.

498
00:27:56,200 --> 00:27:58,800
Speaker 8: And Google's great in some areas, but Google sucks in

499
00:27:58,840 --> 00:28:02,080
Speaker 8: other areas because you you know, you look up Fever fans,

500
00:28:02,080 --> 00:28:04,520
Speaker 8: you're going to see allegations of racist and blah blah blah.

501
00:28:04,520 --> 00:28:07,359
Speaker 8: And it's one of those deals. Doug worths, it's enough

502
00:28:08,000 --> 00:28:11,160
Speaker 8: enough enough. You did it once, he did it twice

503
00:28:11,280 --> 00:28:14,480
Speaker 8: us third time. And Angel Reese and the Chicago Sky

504
00:28:14,520 --> 00:28:16,440
Speaker 8: have been shown to be liars. I mean they lied

505
00:28:16,520 --> 00:28:19,800
Speaker 8: last year and the video came out. They said they

506
00:28:19,840 --> 00:28:23,639
Speaker 8: were not allowed in a hotel room because of racist people.

507
00:28:23,760 --> 00:28:26,080
Speaker 8: There was one guy asking the question of Kennedy Carter

508
00:28:26,840 --> 00:28:29,760
Speaker 8: who cheap shot at Angel Reese. One guy was out

509
00:28:29,760 --> 00:28:31,960
Speaker 8: there with a camera phony said, hey, have you talked

510
00:28:31,960 --> 00:28:36,000
Speaker 8: to Angel Reason? And they reece? And excuse me, have

511
00:28:36,080 --> 00:28:39,240
Speaker 8: you talked to Caitlin Clark and an Angel Reason? You

512
00:28:39,280 --> 00:28:41,480
Speaker 8: know they came out. Well, we were accosted. We couldn't

513
00:28:41,480 --> 00:28:44,720
Speaker 8: get in to the point where the Chicago Sky general

514
00:28:44,760 --> 00:28:48,240
Speaker 8: manager saying no, that didn't happen, and the evidence proved

515
00:28:48,240 --> 00:28:51,360
Speaker 8: it didn't. It's enough, you know, it's like your kid's

516
00:28:51,480 --> 00:28:54,400
Speaker 8: enough listening to nonsense.

517
00:28:54,440 --> 00:28:58,440
Speaker 2: I'll take you, but enough and well again the biggest

518
00:28:58,440 --> 00:29:01,280
Speaker 2: issue is again I agree enough, but it's also it's

519
00:29:01,320 --> 00:29:04,880
Speaker 2: like it's the point you made previously in regards to Google,

520
00:29:05,680 --> 00:29:08,560
Speaker 2: like there's no real way to put the genie back

521
00:29:08,600 --> 00:29:10,840
Speaker 2: in the bottle. And you call people racists and you

522
00:29:10,880 --> 00:29:13,680
Speaker 2: call fan base racist. You're like, what just because I'm

523
00:29:13,720 --> 00:29:16,920
Speaker 2: white does and I don't like you as a basketba

524
00:29:16,920 --> 00:29:19,320
Speaker 2: player because you play for a different team, Well maybe

525
00:29:19,360 --> 00:29:21,920
Speaker 2: I don't like your persona. It's not because you're blacking.

526
00:29:21,920 --> 00:29:24,200
Speaker 2: You labeled me a racist, like how am I supposed

527
00:29:24,200 --> 00:29:28,000
Speaker 2: to defend myself against that. I'm not a racist, That's

528
00:29:28,000 --> 00:29:28,440
Speaker 2: why I know.

529
00:29:29,400 --> 00:29:32,480
Speaker 8: That's why, That's why I like what Jim Banks did

530
00:29:32,560 --> 00:29:35,840
Speaker 8: because at least now somebody's defending, you know. And again,

531
00:29:35,920 --> 00:29:39,280
Speaker 8: defending doesn't erase it. Don't get me wrong. I mean defending,

532
00:29:39,840 --> 00:29:42,000
Speaker 8: you know is after the fact. And to your point,

533
00:29:42,000 --> 00:29:44,240
Speaker 8: the genie doesn't go back in the bottle. Google is

534
00:29:44,280 --> 00:29:48,880
Speaker 8: forever h But having said that, your only repercussion, or

535
00:29:48,920 --> 00:29:50,640
Speaker 8: you can sit there and do what the fever did,

536
00:29:50,640 --> 00:29:53,440
Speaker 8: which you say, well, you know where there's no place

537
00:29:53,520 --> 00:29:56,080
Speaker 8: for you know, this kind of tie. You know, we

538
00:29:56,440 --> 00:29:59,680
Speaker 8: couldn't substantial it. Ain't say it didn't happen, but every

539
00:30:00,320 --> 00:30:03,280
Speaker 8: it did not happen. But I think everybody's so afraid

540
00:30:03,320 --> 00:30:05,640
Speaker 8: to stand up. I think everybody's so afraid to stand

541
00:30:05,720 --> 00:30:09,280
Speaker 8: up to the old school guard of the w NBA

542
00:30:10,480 --> 00:30:13,840
Speaker 8: out of fear that they'll be called racist for denying

543
00:30:13,920 --> 00:30:16,360
Speaker 8: something I don't know's it's the honest thing in America.

544
00:30:16,480 --> 00:30:19,800
Speaker 8: The WNBA, in my opinion, has shown itself to be

545
00:30:19,880 --> 00:30:23,440
Speaker 8: exactly what it is, which is a racist, sexist mess.

546
00:30:24,120 --> 00:30:27,479
Speaker 8: And screw them, I mean, they attacked Mike town one

547
00:30:27,520 --> 00:30:30,360
Speaker 8: too many times. Jim Banks is sitting one too many times,

548
00:30:30,400 --> 00:30:31,320
Speaker 8: and we're going to fight back.

549
00:30:31,360 --> 00:30:35,280
Speaker 2: Screw them, Dan Docketts. The show is called Don't At Me.

550
00:30:35,720 --> 00:30:37,880
Speaker 2: It's on OutKick dot com. You can check it on

551
00:30:37,960 --> 00:30:40,480
Speaker 2: social media as well, of course long time basketball coaching,

552
00:30:42,520 --> 00:30:44,520
Speaker 2: basketball iolists and national.

553
00:30:44,440 --> 00:30:46,280
Speaker 8: What do you got? Give me your prediction? What do

554
00:30:46,320 --> 00:30:47,000
Speaker 8: you got? Who wins?

555
00:30:47,480 --> 00:30:48,360
Speaker 2: I think the thunderwin.

556
00:30:49,160 --> 00:30:50,240
Speaker 8: Everybody does, I know?

557
00:30:50,840 --> 00:30:54,600
Speaker 2: I just I just again, like, what is the you

558
00:30:54,600 --> 00:30:57,440
Speaker 2: know so much? It's about matchup strength and strength. Pacers

559
00:30:57,480 --> 00:31:01,920
Speaker 2: have great depth, so to the Thunder. Yeah, I think

560
00:31:01,960 --> 00:31:07,719
Speaker 2: that Haliburton's tremendous, but Shay is more consistent. I do

561
00:31:07,800 --> 00:31:11,760
Speaker 2: think Siakam is a special, special player and more consistent

562
00:31:11,800 --> 00:31:12,640
Speaker 2: than Jalen Williams.

563
00:31:13,600 --> 00:31:13,719
Speaker 6: Uh.

564
00:31:14,200 --> 00:31:17,040
Speaker 2: But for whatever reason, you know, and maybe it's the

565
00:31:17,080 --> 00:31:19,760
Speaker 2: style they play. He's not always emphasized in what they do.

566
00:31:20,480 --> 00:31:23,200
Speaker 2: And I get my fear of the Thunder is well.

567
00:31:23,240 --> 00:31:25,920
Speaker 2: I think for most people was older team, veteran team

568
00:31:25,960 --> 00:31:27,840
Speaker 2: to get thrown around a little bit kind of what

569
00:31:27,840 --> 00:31:30,280
Speaker 2: what Denver did to him before Denver was banged up.

570
00:31:31,000 --> 00:31:35,320
Speaker 2: And I don't think that's the Pacers. So you know,

571
00:31:35,640 --> 00:31:38,440
Speaker 2: the one, the one and and like, look, PACER's great

572
00:31:38,440 --> 00:31:42,440
Speaker 2: home court advantage, so does Oklahoma City. So yes, no question,

573
00:31:42,960 --> 00:31:44,680
Speaker 2: two good ones. I Actually I think it's gonna be

574
00:31:44,680 --> 00:31:46,800
Speaker 2: a fun series to watch because both teams play fast

575
00:31:46,880 --> 00:31:50,320
Speaker 2: and open and free and you know, it's not Iso ball,

576
00:31:50,960 --> 00:31:56,080
Speaker 2: it's it's it's not thuggery ball. But but I don't

577
00:31:56,080 --> 00:31:58,320
Speaker 2: think America will watch it that much because the names

578
00:31:58,360 --> 00:32:00,960
Speaker 2: and the teams and the brands of the players themselves.

579
00:32:02,000 --> 00:32:04,280
Speaker 8: As I tell people at my age, I'm looking for

580
00:32:04,320 --> 00:32:07,440
Speaker 8: stuff to do, and my big fat ass is gonna

581
00:32:07,440 --> 00:32:10,040
Speaker 8: be sitting in front of a TV at a thirty

582
00:32:10,120 --> 00:32:12,640
Speaker 8: fruit from my team and I can't wait. How about that?

583
00:32:13,120 --> 00:32:13,520
Speaker 8: All right?

00:33:53,360 --> 00:33:54,640
Speaker 4: on the clock with.

615
00:33:54,680 --> 00:33:57,880
Speaker 10: The number one overall pick to me, I will draft

616
00:33:58,040 --> 00:34:02,280
Speaker 10: the Cleveland Cavaliers over Golden State Warriors in twenty sixteen's

617
00:34:02,440 --> 00:34:07,200
Speaker 10: NBA Finals. Twenty fifteen season into the twenty sixteen NBA Finals.

618
00:34:07,320 --> 00:34:10,040
Speaker 4: I think that's a very good pick. I think it's

619
00:34:10,040 --> 00:34:14,960
Speaker 4: got to be like our most memorable finals of at

620
00:34:15,040 --> 00:34:19,239
Speaker 4: least the last decade. But it's not my favorite. My

621
00:34:19,360 --> 00:34:24,359
Speaker 4: favorite at number two in my memory. Twenty twenty one,

622
00:34:24,560 --> 00:34:28,680
Speaker 4: as Doug mentioned, Bucks beat the Suns. I understand why

623
00:34:28,800 --> 00:34:32,920
Speaker 4: it wouldn't carry nationally, but you also have to realize

624
00:34:32,960 --> 00:34:35,759
Speaker 4: what it meant locally. I never thought I would see

625
00:34:35,800 --> 00:34:39,480
Speaker 4: the Bucks in an NBA Finals, let alone actually winning it.

626
00:34:40,120 --> 00:34:45,880
Speaker 4: So twenty twenty one, Bucks beat the Suns in six games. Jason,

627
00:34:45,880 --> 00:34:46,560
Speaker 4: you're on the clock.

628
00:34:47,440 --> 00:34:51,800
Speaker 3: I will go with the eighty seven Lakers Celtics eighty seven,

629
00:34:52,160 --> 00:34:55,239
Speaker 3: the first of the back to back finals wins for

630
00:34:55,280 --> 00:35:00,000
Speaker 3: the Lakers, and Magic Joston starred for my Los Angele

631
00:35:00,080 --> 00:35:01,320
Speaker 3: Lakers eighty seven.

632
00:35:01,760 --> 00:35:09,040
Speaker 2: Alright, you're Los Angeles Laker girls. Sorry, I mean Lakers Lakers,

633
00:35:09,480 --> 00:35:10,920
Speaker 2: Los Angeles Lakers.

634
00:35:12,680 --> 00:35:14,760
Speaker 4: Doug, you were on the clock at number four.

635
00:35:16,200 --> 00:35:20,759
Speaker 2: Twenty thirteen. That was when the Miami Heat won their

636
00:35:20,800 --> 00:35:23,319
Speaker 2: second back in back to back titles. They beat the

637
00:35:23,360 --> 00:35:26,520
Speaker 2: San Antonio Spurs, the first in back to back years

638
00:35:26,520 --> 00:35:30,160
Speaker 2: they played the Spurs. Why is that memorable? Well, I

639
00:35:30,200 --> 00:35:33,440
Speaker 2: mean basically hall of famers on both teams. I was

640
00:35:33,480 --> 00:35:38,240
Speaker 2: at three for the Spurs and probably four for the Heat.

641
00:35:39,840 --> 00:35:44,239
Speaker 2: But that was the famous Game six when it looked

642
00:35:44,280 --> 00:35:46,319
Speaker 2: like the Heat we're gonna lose. They interviewed some Heat

643
00:35:46,400 --> 00:35:49,640
Speaker 2: fans outside the arena while the game was still going on,

644
00:35:49,800 --> 00:35:52,279
Speaker 2: talking about had a great year, but man couldn't beat

645
00:35:52,280 --> 00:35:56,279
Speaker 2: the Spurs. They come back, Ray Allens three. They beat

646
00:35:56,320 --> 00:35:58,520
Speaker 2: the Spurs in Game six, Game seven, Lebron James the

647
00:35:58,600 --> 00:36:01,560
Speaker 2: only one and it was a really close game. That's

648
00:36:02,160 --> 00:36:05,720
Speaker 2: that's minus twenty thirteen. Miami takes down the Spurs.

649
00:36:05,880 --> 00:36:08,120
Speaker 4: All right, that's the first round of our draft. We

650
00:36:08,239 --> 00:36:10,279
Speaker 4: now reverse it into the second round where Doug, you

651
00:36:10,280 --> 00:36:11,560
Speaker 4: are back on the clock again.

652
00:36:12,800 --> 00:36:15,759
Speaker 2: I'm gonna stick with the with the Lakers theme, only

653
00:36:15,800 --> 00:36:18,400
Speaker 2: this one. I'm gonna go the eighty eight Lakers Championship,

654
00:36:18,840 --> 00:36:22,880
Speaker 2: where the Lakers won back to back titles, their third

655
00:36:23,160 --> 00:36:27,319
Speaker 2: in four years, their last with Magic Johnson being their

656
00:36:27,360 --> 00:36:30,239
Speaker 2: point guard, and they took down the Detroit Pistons, who

657
00:36:30,239 --> 00:36:32,799
Speaker 2: had then win it the next two years. The Bad

658
00:36:32,800 --> 00:36:36,600
Speaker 2: Boys Pistons, Isaiah Thomas Game six on a springed ankle

659
00:36:36,680 --> 00:36:39,360
Speaker 2: was magnificent at the Forum, but wasn't enough, as the

660
00:36:39,400 --> 00:36:41,080
Speaker 2: Lakers end up winning winning it in seven.

661
00:36:42,080 --> 00:36:45,960
Speaker 3: All right, over to Jason Stewart's I'll go twenty ten.

662
00:36:46,040 --> 00:36:49,280
Speaker 3: I know we're Laker heavy, but Lakers beating the Celtics

663
00:36:49,280 --> 00:36:53,160
Speaker 3: seat again and I think Meadow World Peace had something

664
00:36:53,160 --> 00:36:56,000
Speaker 3: to do with Game seven to seal the deal. That

665
00:36:56,040 --> 00:36:56,720
Speaker 3: was a good one.

666
00:36:57,000 --> 00:37:00,839
Speaker 4: I'll for my seventh pick. They're at the seventh overall pick.

667
00:37:00,880 --> 00:37:03,560
Speaker 4: I got the ninety two finals. People will say this

668
00:37:03,600 --> 00:37:06,160
Speaker 4: is the least memorable of the Bulls Finals, but I

669
00:37:06,200 --> 00:37:08,759
Speaker 4: don't think if they remember on how good Portland was.

670
00:37:09,360 --> 00:37:11,840
Speaker 4: And Portland had a Game six lead at the end

671
00:37:11,880 --> 00:37:14,640
Speaker 4: of the third quarter of fifteen points. They were twelve

672
00:37:14,680 --> 00:37:16,920
Speaker 4: minutes away from taking the Bulls to a Game seven

673
00:37:17,160 --> 00:37:19,759
Speaker 4: and what had been a pretty competitive series. Give me

674
00:37:19,800 --> 00:37:24,239
Speaker 4: the ninety two NBA Finals, Sam, you wrap it up.

675
00:37:24,680 --> 00:37:27,760
Speaker 10: I'll take the eight Celtics over the Lakers in six.

676
00:37:27,920 --> 00:37:30,680
Speaker 10: It was the Celtics first championship in over twenty twelve,

677
00:37:30,680 --> 00:37:33,640
Speaker 10: over twenty years. It was Doc rivers only championship so far.

678
00:37:33,719 --> 00:37:36,359
Speaker 10: Kevin Garnett got his title and they threw some red

679
00:37:36,360 --> 00:37:37,680
Speaker 10: gatorade on him on the court.

680
00:37:37,800 --> 00:37:40,920
Speaker 4: Oh yes, I was there in Boston for that very

681
00:37:41,040 --> 00:37:48,479
Speaker 4: nice quarter party. Humble Bragg. That's game time, game.

682
00:37:49,800 --> 00:37:53,160
