Speaker 4: All right, Dylan Wole question, My Golden Knights come from behind,
Speaker 4: and it was historical last night, first time and Stanley
Speaker 4: Cup Final history, the team on the road down by
Speaker 4: more than one goal ended up coming back and winning.
Speaker 4: They were down a couple of goals, came back and
Speaker 4: wanted in dramatic fashion five to four the final. Let
Speaker 4: me give you the exact wording on that. Okay, So
Speaker 4: the Golden Knights first road team in NHL history to
Speaker 4: win Game one in the final after trailing by multiple goals.
Speaker 4: Prior to last night, road teams were zero and fifty
Speaker 4: five in game one when trailing by two or more
Speaker 4: goals at any point.
Speaker 5: Statup Today, Statu Today, STATU to day.
Speaker 6: STATU to day Status today, STATU Day, STATU to day.
Speaker 4: Statut brought you by Panini America. By the way, Madison
Speaker 4: Square Garden will be sold out tonight. Yeah, I know
Speaker 4: the game is in San Antonio. There's a watch party
Speaker 4: in the garden, and Paulie goes, would you go to this?
Speaker 4: And I said, if I'm a Knicks fan, yes, Now
Speaker 4: they do this all the time in other sports, where
Speaker 4: you'll have a viewing party when your team is on
Speaker 4: the road.
Speaker 2: Now, I don't know what they're charging you for this.
Speaker 4: I don't know if it's a is it a flat
Speaker 4: fee because this isn't watching a game where lower level
Speaker 4: is going to cost you seven thousand dollars.
Speaker 2: Yeah, Paulie, like.
Speaker 7: You said, it's currently sold out, but when the tickets
Speaker 7: were available, it was ten dollars for a ticket and
Speaker 7: the proceeds go to Garden of Dreams Foundation, the charity
Speaker 7: of the Knicks.
Speaker 2: I love it. I would definitely go to a viewing
Speaker 2: party if I'm a Knicks fan.
Speaker 4: You know, you get some beers there, you're with fans,
Speaker 4: you get to celebrate, maybe go out on Seventh Avenue,
Speaker 4: take off your shirt if they haven't happened to win,
Speaker 4: even take off your shirt if they happen to lose.
Speaker 2: Yes, Dylan, would you rather.
Speaker 8: Go to the watch party at the stadium and go
Speaker 8: to like your favorite bar with other Knicks fans and
Speaker 8: watch it.
Speaker 4: I think i'd go to the Garden. I'd want to
Speaker 4: know what that feel. I know what the bar is
Speaker 4: going to be like. I don't know what it would
Speaker 4: be like in you know, a building that you're used
Speaker 4: to seeing your team play in. I mean, you go
Speaker 4: to the bar, your team's not playing in the bar,
Speaker 4: you're used to watching that in the bar.
Speaker 2: Yes, do.
Speaker 3: What was I gonna say?
Speaker 8: But would you still have to pay MSG prices for drinks?
Speaker 8: I know it's ten months to get in, but is
Speaker 8: it still twenty dollars beer night or.
Speaker 2: Must see that. I would be curious about that. Yes,
Speaker 2: all of a sudden, that dive.
Speaker 4: Could be Yes, that could be a deal breaker. Although
Speaker 4: I was in a dive bar on Sunday and I
Speaker 4: had to dive deep into my pocket that that was
Speaker 4: the dive part of it, because this is a Brooklyn
Speaker 4: dive bar and the beers were expensive, or maybe I
Speaker 4: haven't been out to buy beers in New York City.
Speaker 8: Yes, Dylan, when you said the toe it was like
Speaker 8: eight hundred something, Yeah, eight forty five. I thought that
Speaker 8: was pretty friendly. Not gonna lie, justait for thirty people.
Speaker 4: But this is only two hours and its husband and
Speaker 4: wife with kids at a one year old's party. This
Speaker 4: isn't exactly you know, body shots.
Speaker 8: Yeah, but like you said, it's a bar in Brooklyn.
Speaker 8: Those are the deals are few and far between these days.
Speaker 4: I'm going to guess, let's say fifteen couples, thirty people
Speaker 4: had two beers each.
Speaker 8: There could be a couple, you know, mercenaries in there
Speaker 8: who did most of the damage too.
Speaker 4: Well, apparently my wife found out about a John Daly.
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, and she goes, have you heard about a
Speaker 4: John Daily? And I go yes, and she goes, boy,
Speaker 4: it's really good. I go hunt slow down. It used
Speaker 4: to be an Arnold Palmer and then Daily added vodka
Speaker 4: to it. I had one of those yesterday, John Daily, Right,
Speaker 4: you did? Yeah, you ordered a John Well, you ordered
Speaker 4: to John Daily a transfu my bloody Mary.
Speaker 3: You had what other?
Speaker 2: Some seltzer? Seltzer? I make the rounds. You guys had cigar.
Speaker 4: I didn't have anything to drink, but you guys did
Speaker 4: some damage to my account at my golf course.
Speaker 2: We offered you a cigar and you turned it down.
Speaker 2: I was surprised.
Speaker 3: No, I.
Speaker 4: Drink after five o'clock. I don't drink before. What about smoke.
Speaker 4: I don't smoke until after seven.
Speaker 2: After you've had two hours of drinking.
Speaker 4: Then you start, well, no, I'm not drinking from five
Speaker 4: to seven, but I might have a beer or two
Speaker 4: prior to dinner, then maybe a glass of wine, and
Speaker 4: then I'll retire to the basement and have a cigar
Speaker 4: and some.
Speaker 2: Tequila sounds lovely. Actually, I know it is.
Speaker 4: You know, it drives my wife crazy if my schedule
Speaker 4: gets thrown off because you go, hey, you want to
Speaker 4: take a walk after dinner. I'll go, well, wait, what
Speaker 4: time are we going to be back? She goes, we'll
Speaker 4: be back before seven o'clock. I said, okay, as long
Speaker 4: as we're back before seven, because seven is when you
Speaker 4: know tequila starts for tequila time.
Speaker 7: Yes, well, you have the ability to change the time
Speaker 7: of tequila time. It's not a hard set thing like
Speaker 7: a TV show.
Speaker 2: I am a very routine like person, that's true. Yes, yes, time.
Speaker 9: I thought you're gonna say, you what there to get
Speaker 9: back in time?
Speaker 10: Like the NBA or NHL pregame show, which stocks you know,
Speaker 10: usually in the seven ballpark.
Speaker 9: But this is circtly your alcohol related.
Speaker 2: Yes, yes, I have priorities to Yes, well, going back.
Speaker 7: To the watch party tonight at MSG, we should have
Speaker 7: gotten tickets and sat court side and taken a bunch
Speaker 7: of pictures and said, look at us court side of
Speaker 7: the MSG. No one would have known the details.
Speaker 4: But I don't want to be court side if you're
Speaker 4: looking at the jumbo tron, right, But just.
Speaker 7: For the shot of looking like we're on celebrity row.
Speaker 4: Yeah, but then I don't want to stay and watch
Speaker 4: a game where I'm up like this when you go
Speaker 4: to you know, Cowboys game, like court side would be
Speaker 4: the worst seat to have, yes, time, what's a.
Speaker 10: Comfortable distance to travel on a school night or a
Speaker 10: work night as opposed to it being a Friday or
Speaker 10: Saturday game. How far are you willing to go to
Speaker 10: sit in an arena that's not actually having the game,
Speaker 10: you know, being played in front.
Speaker 2: Of Marvin's going to a watch party.
Speaker 9: I am in the city.
Speaker 4: Yeah, he's going to a watch party in the city.
Speaker 4: I said, you better not show up tired tomorrow.
Speaker 3: And that's never been me.
Speaker 11: I've come back here from a Sunday night football game
Speaker 11: and that gets out way later. No, I'm I'm always ready. Okay,
Speaker 11: this is the only job I've ever loved.
Speaker 4: Yeah, but you know, when you're working a Sunday night,
Speaker 4: it's different than when you're going to a watch party
Speaker 4: where it's supposed to be fun. So the atmosphere you
Speaker 4: might get caught up in the atmosphere and have a
Speaker 4: beverage or too. You're not drinking when you're doing Sunday
Speaker 4: night football.
Speaker 11: First of all, you don't know that, yes. Second of
Speaker 11: all you know I'm not a drinker like that anyway.
Speaker 11: So the Shirley Temples, it's an open bar, so the
Speaker 11: Shirley Temples will be flowing.
Speaker 2: How much does Shirley Temples constant a bar? Three dollars?
Speaker 3: Four dollars?
Speaker 4: Okay, yes, Dylan, do you want me to go with them?
Speaker 4: Makes He keeps a button up. No, no, no, sure, yes,
Speaker 4: I've seen you.
Speaker 2: Thank you.
Speaker 4: Yeah, you don't get cheated. You will drink what Marvin
Speaker 4: doesn't drink. That's true, I'll drink it dirty shirly.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yes, Tom.
Speaker 10: If you're going just for fun, though, you can bow
Speaker 10: out earlier in control. But if you're working and you've
Speaker 10: made a commitment, and Marvin has told us about all
Speaker 10: the things he has to do postgame, and there's all
Speaker 10: kinds of wiring and things that have to be put away,
Speaker 10: that becomes like an all night affair. They have to
Speaker 10: come straight to work because it's two three o'clock in
Speaker 10: the morning.
Speaker 2: Thank you, Jo Todd in Indiana, Hi Todd, what do
Speaker 2: you have for me?
Speaker 9: Six four.
Speaker 1: Dan?
Speaker 5: In honor of you and Todd being twenty four years together.
Speaker 5: This isn't a instrument, but this is the gift of
Speaker 5: music for Fritzy. Fritzy, I have your emergency.
Speaker 2: All in Notes hotline.
Speaker 5: What do you got and if do you want the
Speaker 5: phone number?
Speaker 9: Sure?
Speaker 10: I think I've seen this online, but just in case
Speaker 10: there's there's alternate ones. I want to make sure I'm
Speaker 10: going to the right place.
Speaker 4: I don't know if we should be giving this out,
Speaker 4: but thank you Todd. I don't know if Todd needs
Speaker 4: a Whole and Notes emergency hotline number.
Speaker 9: I got it all on my aarpods.
Speaker 7: Yes, well you just thank you Todd and the caller.
Speaker 4: I know, thank you, Todd. Ze Uh. Let's see Chris
Speaker 4: in La.
Speaker 6: Hi, Chris, Hey, dan Uh as a lawyer in LA.
Speaker 6: I'm going to make my argument to you as who
Speaker 6: I think Shelley definitely could be the face of baseball.
Speaker 3: No, he is? He is?
Speaker 2: Chris?
Speaker 6: Yeah, Well, I here's the reason why I think it's
Speaker 6: undisputed though, Uh, you know, he's had a number of moments.
Speaker 6: I think you said you didn't know if he's had
Speaker 6: he's had a number of moments.
Speaker 2: To back it up.
Speaker 6: But he's had games where he was six for six,
Speaker 6: three home runs, two doubles, two stolen bases. He had
Speaker 6: another game where he had ten strikeouts and then three
Speaker 6: home runs. He had a one hitter where he had
Speaker 6: three home runs in.
Speaker 3: Game one, and then.
Speaker 6: One hitter in Game one and then three home runs
Speaker 6: in Game two. He's the first player to hit fifty
Speaker 6: home runs and fifty solar bases. But Dad, the biggest
Speaker 6: thing to me is that he's had such a global
Speaker 6: impact in Asia. When you go to Dodger State of
Speaker 6: mount you see Asian tour groups of fans that come,
Speaker 6: and I would imagine it's like that in other cities too,
Speaker 6: And the historic Dodger stadium renamed itself UniGlobe Field at
Speaker 6: Dodger Stadium Uniglo as an Asian company. So I think
Speaker 6: he's had an incredible global impact, and I would say
Speaker 6: he's the global face of baseball, not just in all.
Speaker 2: I agree.
Speaker 4: I agree, and thank you Chris for remind me of
Speaker 4: all those moments. But if I say Sho heo Tani,
Speaker 4: you might just think great hitter, great pitcher, and a
Speaker 4: guy who stole what fifty eight bases? But yeah, you're
Speaker 4: giving me moments there, and rightfully so. So those are
Speaker 4: the things that we should focus on. The uniqueness of
Speaker 4: hitting three home runs or I mean striking out ten
Speaker 4: not as much, but you know, some of the things
Speaker 4: offensively that he's done. Pitching wise, everybody, I mean all
Speaker 4: these pitchers are, you know, going five innings and striking
Speaker 4: out eight or not. I mean, that's what pitching is anymore.
Speaker 4: But to do it and to also be hitting, that's
Speaker 4: the amazing part with Shohey. But yes, he no, he
Speaker 4: is the face global face of baseball. Yeah, dil the uh.
Speaker 8: I think the him pitching that one hitter with the
Speaker 8: Angels complete game, that might be the thing he comes
Speaker 8: the least close to touching again because I don't think he's
Speaker 8: ever gonna have a perfect game or a no hitter
Speaker 8: because I can't imagine the Dodgers letting him throw nine innings.
Speaker 4: Well, he's not going to be stealing sixty bases. Yeah,
Speaker 4: that's not going to happen. I mean, as you get older,
Speaker 4: you stop running. But I think he it's one of
Speaker 4: those I'm going to show you that I can do this,
Speaker 4: which is you know, even more amazing. It's almost like
Speaker 4: he's challenging himself.
Speaker 2: Yes. Uh, Marvin victor Ascho.
Speaker 11: Hey, they're in a peculiar spot because both of them
Speaker 11: they're probably the best players in their sport, but they're
Speaker 11: also the face of their sport, and that's never Sometimes
Speaker 11: that's really not the case. Jordan, face of the league,
Speaker 11: best player, Joker, best player in the league, not the
Speaker 11: face of the league.
Speaker 2: Yeah, uh, Sean and Daytona beach.
Speaker 12: Hi Sean, Dan, thank you for calling back, longtime, long time.
Speaker 12: First thing, though, before I get to what I was
Speaker 12: calling about. When it comes to tequila time, let's pretend
Speaker 12: the man cave is in ballast and kick everything up
Speaker 12: to central. You can go an hour earlier. Now, what
Speaker 12: I was really calling about is happy anniversary to you
Speaker 12: and Todd. Yesterday was the anniversary of the pork off. However,
Speaker 12: you can ask my wife. I walk around the house
Speaker 12: and I say out loud, scary and Gary, how they
Speaker 12: rhyme if I don't understand? Just because it ends in
Speaker 12: ar y. And since you're the head of hr DAM,
Speaker 12: have you considered a hearing test for all of the
Speaker 12: damn heads because I think our toddler might have some issues.
Speaker 4: Well, oh no, Todd has issues. Yeah, Todd. I mean
Speaker 4: we should post sausage off. Maybe it's available there, but
Speaker 4: you're just going, what is Todd hearing? How does he
Speaker 4: not understand a rhyme? Can you give me just a
Speaker 4: little bit of sausage off the anniversary there, Marvin, No fritzy.
Speaker 10: I was gonna say, if we're having a context, who
Speaker 10: could eat the most sausages?
Speaker 9: That would be a.
Speaker 2: Sausage off.
Speaker 9: The judges were looking for pork off. Pork off.
Speaker 10: If you come to a spot in the road and
Speaker 10: you pick the right road to go down, that would
Speaker 10: be a fork off.
Speaker 13: You realize that none of those rhyme with the jokes
Speaker 13: that we've been making.
Speaker 2: You just had to get in the conversation, didn't you.
Speaker 10: I saw I thowt your god with walk off, talk off,
Speaker 10: and that's why I did palk off and fork off.
Speaker 13: You actually changed it should It's not like walk and
Speaker 13: pork it's a talk hawk chalk walk and you went
Speaker 13: pork Yeah.
Speaker 2: See how that doesn't work. His name's not Marshall fork Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 2: thank you, thank you. I appreciate it.
Speaker 4: Yeah, that was bad, and you know there's a lot
Speaker 4: more to that segment than just that. We went on
Speaker 4: for three more minutes. Todd still couldn't quite hear himself
Speaker 4: pronounce those words that didn't rhyme like Eminem can do
Speaker 4: this in a song, but you were just doing this
Speaker 4: as conversation.
Speaker 10: I'd like to blame my Brooklyn accent, but that has
Speaker 10: got nothing to do with the run.
Speaker 4: Reggie Miller will join us next We're back after this

Speaker 4: NBA on NBC Lead Analyst. If I told you in
Speaker 4: October these two teams would be playing for the title,
Speaker 4: you would have said, what you.
Speaker 3: Must be out of your mind, Theodore.
Speaker 15: Look, I think coming into the season, I knew the
Speaker 15: Knicks would probably have a better shot at getting to
Speaker 15: the finals because this was supposed to be a gap
Speaker 15: year for the Celtics. They weren't supposed to be have
Speaker 15: the second best record. I knew Detroit would be good,
Speaker 15: Indiana was going to be down because of the Hallibert injury.
Speaker 15: So I would say New York was closer to get
Speaker 15: into the finals. No one had the Spurs on their
Speaker 15: Bengo card, playing this well all season long, having the
Speaker 15: second best record, only two games behind Ocasey, who they
Speaker 15: beat in the conference finals, and getting to the NBA Finals.
Speaker 15: So no, I think that the Knicks were closer, but
Speaker 15: the Spurs.
Speaker 16: No.
Speaker 4: I'm surprised at the Spurs supporting cast because we're being
Speaker 4: introduced to them. Dylan Harper has matured right in front
Speaker 4: of our very eyes. Stefan Cassel has done the same thing.
Speaker 4: Vassol as well, Darren Fox. We knew Wemby, of course,
Speaker 4: but I think that's been the bigger surprise. We know
Speaker 4: who the principles the pieces are with the Knicks, the
Speaker 4: San Antonio Spurs I think that's been the pleasant surprise.
Speaker 4: Biggest surprise though, out of that supporting group to you
Speaker 4: in San Antonio is who for a rookie.
Speaker 15: To perform like this on the biggest stage in Dylan
Speaker 15: Harper coming off the bench. Look, there was only a
Speaker 15: handful of rookies even playing in the postseason this year,
Speaker 15: and Dylan Harper has been at the head of the
Speaker 15: class and for him to show the type of poise
Speaker 15: that he has shown, let's talk of it and think
Speaker 15: about this.
Speaker 3: This first team, the.
Speaker 15: Second youngest team to be in the finals behind I
Speaker 15: believe Bill Walton's Portland Trailblazers way back in the day.
Speaker 15: So for them, guys and the trusts that we've got
Speaker 15: to talk about the young head coach too, Mitch Johnson.
Speaker 15: It's just not the players, Yeah, it's the coaching staff
Speaker 15: as well. So look, this is uncharted waters. We keep
Speaker 15: talking about experience, experience matters. Oh my god, when are
Speaker 15: they you know they're going to run into OKAC and
Speaker 15: the champs. They're they're playing their own playbook and they're
Speaker 15: going by their own rules, and here they are. They
Speaker 15: will be the betting favorites because of everyone you just
Speaker 15: mentioned Having said all that, I said on your show
Speaker 15: What a Week two weeks ago that I like the Knicks.
Speaker 15: I think how they've played up to this point. My
Speaker 15: only reservation has been the long lay off, so Russ
Speaker 15: versus Rest what we're talking about right now, but the
Speaker 15: way they've played up to this point, having won eleven
Speaker 15: in a row and revamped or offense during the middle
Speaker 15: of the playoffs. Theodore think about that. They revamped their
Speaker 15: offense during the middle of the playoffs. Can that be
Speaker 15: successful against this the Spurs team? I can't wait to see.
Speaker 4: All right, let's take Brunchon and Wemby out of this.
Speaker 4: Next in line for MVP for you would be.
Speaker 3: I think for the.
Speaker 15: For the Knicks, probably Cat for the for the Knicks,
Speaker 15: and I think for the Spurs. Wow, everything evolves around him,
Speaker 15: but I would have to go deer and fox. I
Speaker 15: think his little bit of playoff experience will come.
Speaker 3: To the forefront tonight. And when you saw that in
Speaker 3: Game seven.
Speaker 15: All the way up until that point, I know he
Speaker 15: has been struggling with a you know, a twisted ankle,
Speaker 15: a turned ankle. But if you looked at Game seven,
Speaker 15: they looked for his leadership and he delivered again, will
Speaker 15: be the closer and all that, But Deer and Fox
Speaker 15: sneakly is the second best player on this team.
Speaker 4: You went to the NBA Finals in two thousand, but
Speaker 4: you lost in the finals conference finals in ninety four,
Speaker 4: ninety five, ninety eight, ninety nine. Do you think that
Speaker 4: that You know, they talk about the experience of getting
Speaker 4: there and then you know, losing and then getting over
Speaker 4: that hump. But did you need to lose four times
Speaker 4: in the conference finals.
Speaker 3: No, I didn't need to lose four time.
Speaker 2: Look, but did you learn anything? Did you learn?
Speaker 15: Sometimes experience can be your best teacher. Don't get me wrong,
Speaker 15: it's sometimes it's good. It's never good to take your
Speaker 15: own moms, but you learn from them. But again, this
Speaker 15: is a new playbook that we're seeing unfolding in front
Speaker 15: of our eyes with this first team. Because again we
Speaker 15: keep harping on it, and they keep proving all of
Speaker 15: us wrong. They're just going out there and playing. It's
Speaker 15: the old. Look, it was the Thunder and the Pacers
Speaker 15: last year, two young teams. There wasn't a ton of
Speaker 15: experience by both of those teams, and especially the last
Speaker 15: year's champs, the Thunder. You know, they took their lungs,
Speaker 15: you know, a couple of years ago versus Dallas. But again,
Speaker 15: this is unchartered waters and I like that. It's like,
Speaker 15: just go out and play and whatever happens happened, and
Speaker 15: they're proving a lot of people wrong.
Speaker 4: If I was going to have a dark horse, maybe
Speaker 4: a wild card for MVP, I would have Ogi Anobi
Speaker 4: because if he's able to play Victor and contain him
Speaker 4: like he could be an Andrea Egudala kind of sneak
Speaker 4: in and steal the MVP. If I was going to
Speaker 4: look at that from the NIX perspective, if I was
Speaker 4: going to look at with san Antonio, I'd probably go
Speaker 4: with stuff on Castle.
Speaker 3: I think you.
Speaker 15: Wouldn't be wrong because both guys defensive minded, and both
Speaker 15: guys are going to have their hands full o G
Speaker 15: versus Wimby. That's gonna be mussy because are you going
Speaker 15: to go with size? Are you going to go with
Speaker 15: bulk and strength? And for Stefan Castle, his defense on
Speaker 15: Jalen Brunson, think about that. He's had to go against
Speaker 15: Denny Advia first round versus Portland, then Anthony Edwards, then
Speaker 15: the two time MVP and SGA and now you get
Speaker 15: Jalen Brunson. So the run offensively that Stefan Castle is
Speaker 15: going to be enduring is pretty remarkable. So yeah, you
Speaker 15: can make a case for both of those guys.
Speaker 4: Reggie Miller, Hall of Famer, NBA on NBC Lead Analyst.
Speaker 4: If Chad Holmbrenn is your teammate, what are you saying
Speaker 4: to him?
Speaker 15: I'll probably take it him to dinner and say, look,
Speaker 15: you know what the world is going to be saying
Speaker 15: about you. I think what he has going in his
Speaker 15: favor is that they did when It's championship a year ago,
Speaker 15: and we did see on the biggest stage he was
Speaker 15: pretty good. He just had one of those series, and
Speaker 15: we all have them, you know. I tell people this.
Speaker 3: All the time.
Speaker 15: In ninety nine when we lost in one of those
Speaker 15: conference finals, you're talking about to the Knicks, a series
Speaker 15: that we should have won very much like ok see,
Speaker 15: I didn't play my best in that conference finals.
Speaker 3: And I felt the weight of that, and.
Speaker 15: I trained my behind off that summer, almost reinventing myself
Speaker 15: to come back for that moment, and fortunately I had
Speaker 15: that moment a year later versus the Knicks Conference finals,
Speaker 15: we won and we ended up going to the finals
Speaker 15: in two thousand. I think Chet is going to have
Speaker 15: to look himself in the mirror and he's going to
Speaker 15: have to reinvent himself, and he's going to have to
Speaker 15: use what everyone is saying about him.
Speaker 3: Trade him. He's too soft. There was in his eyes.
Speaker 15: He's gonna have to use all that noise to motivate him.
Speaker 15: I want to see. I don't think the Thunder will
Speaker 15: trade him. He's too young and he's too valuable of
Speaker 15: the piece. I think they'll add something to this Thunder team,
Speaker 15: but I don't think they'll trade him. I want to
Speaker 15: see what happens next year because if next year he
Speaker 15: comes back and he's in the same situation, because guess what,
Speaker 15: the Spurs aren't.
Speaker 3: Going anywhere right, They're gonna be there.
Speaker 15: He's gonna have his opportunities versus winby versus the Spurs.
Speaker 15: Then if it's a stumble and fall down again, then
Speaker 15: the conversations will be very valid. And then if you're
Speaker 15: Sam Presty, you think about it. But look, if you're
Speaker 15: Sga and the rest of those guys, he helped you
Speaker 15: win a championship a year ago, you got to give
Speaker 15: him a little bit of credit for that, But I
Speaker 15: want to see how he reinvents himself this summer. He's
Speaker 15: got to work on his game, he's got to work
Speaker 15: on his strength and mentally he's got to be stronger.
Speaker 4: Yeah, he's got to get to that Jalen Brown point
Speaker 4: where stop deferring, like be a force, Like you got
Speaker 4: to demand the ball sometimes you don't take a shot.
Speaker 4: In the second half of Game seven of the Western
Speaker 4: Conference Finals.
Speaker 3: Let's star, could you hear my? Yes?
Speaker 15: I could every time the ball was flung to one.
Speaker 15: I mean one time during the game, I was like.
Speaker 2: Take him, did Chad? Did Chad hear you?
Speaker 15: Because I felt like he may have heard me because
Speaker 15: I kept elbowing Jamal next to me and we kept
Speaker 15: looking at one another like is he hurt?
Speaker 3: Is he sick?
Speaker 15: Like it was like mind blowing because you just wanted
Speaker 15: him to compete.
Speaker 3: That's all you want.
Speaker 4: Guys to do at this But Ridge, I got to ask,
Speaker 4: like I got to put a little bit on the
Speaker 4: coaching staff too, like you're coaching him. I know it
Speaker 4: sounds crazy to say, be more aggressive one the ball,
Speaker 4: you know, be an offensive force, But is somebody yelling
Speaker 4: at him to to be aggressive to attack. Webby had
Speaker 4: five fouls at one point.
Speaker 15: Ya, But I don't think that's coaching. If anyone, it
Speaker 15: should be the other players. Like if I swing you
Speaker 15: the ball, yeah, if you have a spot up three,
Speaker 15: take it or pump big wonderable into you, just don't
Speaker 15: defer and throw it to you know, to Isaiah Joe
Speaker 15: or to lou Dor. I mean, I don't care if
Speaker 15: you missed ten in a row. But as long as
Speaker 15: you're being aggressive and he thinks that you're going to
Speaker 15: shoot Wimby or he thinks you're going to attack him Wimby,
Speaker 15: that's opening this out. But what he was just deferring
Speaker 15: it again, he's he's got to reinvent himself and get.
Speaker 3: Back in the lab.
Speaker 4: Okay, if you honest he's available, and Milwaukee goes we'll
Speaker 4: take some draft picks, first round picks, and we'll take
Speaker 4: chet Holmgren.
Speaker 3: I would like that.
Speaker 15: Piece with the honest with the thunder if they can
Speaker 15: keep check now if harton Stein is in that deal
Speaker 15: with those picks.
Speaker 3: Possibly, but again I don't know that.
Speaker 2: I have to have chat. I like Isaiah Harten, you're right.
Speaker 3: They're gonna watch. Yet we're gonna watch Chet. I mean,
Speaker 3: he's what twenty twenty four?
Speaker 4: No, I'm gonna ask you right now. The Bucks call
Speaker 4: and they say three first round picks and we want
Speaker 4: Chet Holgern and we're gonna give you a honest.
Speaker 3: Look, you're gonna listen hard. If you're Sam Presty, what
Speaker 3: would you do? Oh my god? And the honest is
Speaker 3: what thirty four? Right?
Speaker 4: Thirty thirty two this season? I believe, I think we
Speaker 4: talked about this. Thirty one now be thirty two next season.
Speaker 15: That is a really hard call, it really is. I
Speaker 15: can make a case both ways. But if you're trying
Speaker 15: to win now, and you would think you would have
Speaker 15: to think long and hard about it. But I would
Speaker 15: love to keep check. I would.
Speaker 4: I got you on the phone. You got to make
Speaker 4: a decision here. You can't say I can see it
Speaker 4: both ways. I don't hold on, hold on. I got
Speaker 4: the Lakers on the other line. Hey, what do you
Speaker 4: want to do here?
Speaker 3: The Lakers don't have the assets we do. That's what
Speaker 3: I'm saying. Lakers don't have the assets we do. Then
Speaker 3: get get back.
Speaker 4: They want to give Austin Reeves and they want to give.
Speaker 3: Chat Is Chet would be better than Austin.
Speaker 4: No, no, okay, So you're keeping Chet Holmgren and you're
Speaker 4: not trading for you honest.
Speaker 3: I'm still looking to trade for him, just not.
Speaker 4: Getting you got you have to give up Chet Folk
Speaker 4: hold on. The Clippers are on the other line.
Speaker 3: Okay, that's a different question. I don't know.
Speaker 15: I love, look, I love, but you're gonna have someone
Speaker 15: of us facing problem with him in SGGA.
Speaker 3: I agree, you know what, I'm keeping Chet.
Speaker 2: Okay, all right, keeping chat?
Speaker 12: All right?
Speaker 4: Fine, So you got the Knicks in six.
Speaker 15: I think this goes seven. I think the Knicks are
Speaker 15: capable of winning a game seven on the road in
Speaker 15: San Antonio. This is going to be very competitive. Here's
Speaker 15: the things that I want to see, especially early on.
Speaker 15: Game one will be interesting because I talked about the
Speaker 15: rest versus rust. The Knicks are going to have to run,
Speaker 15: which they've done all postseason. You can't play slow down
Speaker 15: basketball versus this Spurs team because they're too good defensively.
Speaker 15: And we talked about the Og and the Wimby matchup.
Speaker 15: I think that Wimmy's going to be on Josh Hart.
Speaker 15: They usually put him on the Yeah, the most ineffective
Speaker 15: three point shooter. If Josh Hart is making threes, which
Speaker 15: we saw the last two rounds he did, that makes
Speaker 15: it interesting because you've got to try to pull Wimby
Speaker 15: away from the paint because if they do such a
Speaker 15: great job of switching and he finds himself always in
Speaker 15: the paint, so all those drives are nullified. If Heart
Speaker 15: can make threes, if Andy Shammant can make threes, and
Speaker 15: then if you pull them from the paint and you're
Speaker 15: taking these threes, that's when Karl Anthony Town should have
Speaker 15: the advantage on the offensive glass because that means a
Speaker 15: Jillian Champagne or Devin Vasell, those guys are guarding him.
Speaker 15: Him and Mitchell Robinson if he does play, which I
Speaker 15: think he's going to play with that broken pinky crashing
Speaker 15: the boards. If the Knicks can do that, they're gonna
Speaker 15: be successful. If they can draw with me from the paint,
Speaker 15: we're gonna see what we've seen all postseason teams scared
Speaker 15: to get in there, and the Spurs will dominate.
Speaker 4: Yeah, it might come down to something simple like can
Speaker 4: Josh Hart make threes? Can Stefan Counsel make threes? Because
Speaker 4: if I'm the Knicks I'm gonna say to Stephan Cassel,
Speaker 4: if you beat me out there, good for you. You
Speaker 4: deserve it, but I want you taking those shots. And
Speaker 4: Josh Hart they might be saying the same thing. We're
Speaker 4: not letting Brunson, We're not letting Karl Anthony Towns beat us.
Speaker 4: If you beat us, you're a better man and a
Speaker 4: better team.
Speaker 15: And to your point, I will say this Stefan Castle,
Speaker 15: he understands that teams are doing that, and he still
Speaker 15: puts his head down and gets it.
Speaker 3: What I would do too.
Speaker 15: If I'm the Spurs, I am going to put whoever
Speaker 15: Jalen Brunton is going to be guarding.
Speaker 3: He will be in every forty five action that high
Speaker 3: Street the role. Yeah, either you're going to.
Speaker 15: Switch or you're going to try to fight your way over.
Speaker 15: But Brunton and Kat will be in every action to
Speaker 15: make those two guys work defensively.
Speaker 4: We were talking about the greatness of Berkley that people
Speaker 4: kind of forget that he was a great player. They
Speaker 4: see him now as a great analyst. Like you know,
Speaker 4: I mentioned John Madden. People forget he was a Hall
Speaker 4: of Fame coach. They were like, oh, that guy.
Speaker 17: But Charles like it's so strange to tell people about
Speaker 17: when you say that guy right there was unbelievable, and
Speaker 17: if they didn't see him like Shack, you get because
Speaker 17: you go, okay, god, that guy's so big, Like how
Speaker 17: would you describe Berkley because he's shorter than you are
Speaker 17: and was not afraid of anybody who was seven feet
Speaker 17: or bigger.
Speaker 3: You know, I tell.
Speaker 15: People, in today's game, there's a few people that would
Speaker 15: be like Shack in today's game. I don't know how
Speaker 15: they these young guys would have ever guarded Shack. I
Speaker 15: put Charles in that same category because at six' flour
Speaker 15: six three maybe, even he was one of these strongest
Speaker 15: Men i'd ever. Seen and this is a guy he
Speaker 15: was country. Strong he didn't he wasn't in the weight
Speaker 15: room Like dennis Rod ben And Karl malone and thrown
Speaker 15: around stacks of. Weight he was country strong and he
Speaker 15: could do everything from shoot. Threes we know about the rebound,
Speaker 15: mean but was tough as. NAILS i, mean guys were
Speaker 15: just flying off. Him, People i'll. Understand and you, know
Speaker 15: he gets the knock, obviously like myself of not winning
Speaker 15: championships the era that we played In man and some
Speaker 15: of the dudes that we went.
Speaker 3: Against it just wasn't stacked in our. Favor BUT i.
Speaker 15: Would Put charles on one of my all time teams
Speaker 15: just if you needed a.
Speaker 4: Bucket, okay would you IF i, said you can Have
Speaker 4: Tim duncan Or Charles.
Speaker 2: Barkley here we go, Again.
Speaker 9: Here we go.
Speaker 3: Again you're not getting me a.
Speaker 4: Drug you're off, duty, Red you're off duty the whole.
Speaker 2: Summer.
Speaker 15: Now, Look Tim duncan is the greatest power for it
Speaker 15: of all. Time SO i would Take, timmy, okay Because
Speaker 15: timmy played obviously at both ends of the floor, too
Speaker 15: at both.
Speaker 3: Ends but that's not to Knock. Charles charles would have
Speaker 3: Given timmy. Problems he would have Given timmy. Problems i'm just.
Speaker 4: Saying, okay that's Not it's not a tough, Question.
Speaker 3: No it's.
Speaker 15: NOT i, mean out of those, two who do you
Speaker 15: Like dunkin Dum?
Speaker 3: Kid, YEAH i mean that's the right. Answer But charles
Speaker 3: is knocking on the.
Speaker 2: Door fritzie Is Charles withers right?
Speaker 15: Now?
Speaker 4: Right, okay lean You Karl, Malone Charles, Barkley Charles. Barklay,
