While the 9 00:00:28,000 --> 00:00:31,160 Speaker 2: NBA Playoffs are taking shape, and you know, look, in 10 00:00:31,200 --> 00:00:33,240 Speaker 2: many ways, I'm a simple guy. Hell I had a 11 00:00:33,360 --> 00:00:36,720 Speaker 2: lunchables for dinner tonight, and I hate to come on 12 00:00:36,840 --> 00:00:39,920 Speaker 2: like a vegetarian beef inspector in a British slaughterhouse. But 13 00:00:40,520 --> 00:00:44,000 Speaker 2: this Boston Cleveland series, to me, has all the drama 14 00:00:44,040 --> 00:00:47,280 Speaker 2: of a Gilligans Island rerun. Come on, I mean, I 15 00:00:47,360 --> 00:00:52,559 Speaker 2: really gotta hear that Jason Tatum silenced his critics for 16 00:00:52,680 --> 00:00:59,720 Speaker 2: what beating Cleveland. Okay, Boston's starting to bub me. These 17 00:00:59,720 --> 00:01:02,520 Speaker 2: guys strut around like they're going for a three pet 18 00:01:02,800 --> 00:01:05,440 Speaker 2: and they now officially bore me as well. By the way, 19 00:01:05,680 --> 00:01:09,120 Speaker 2: Gilligan's Island the dumbest show of all time. Come on, 20 00:01:10,080 --> 00:01:13,080 Speaker 2: how can you disagree with that. The Professor. He can 21 00:01:13,080 --> 00:01:14,959 Speaker 2: build a radio out of a coconut, but can't get 22 00:01:15,000 --> 00:01:17,880 Speaker 2: him off the island. Thurston b. Howe's got more money 23 00:01:17,920 --> 00:01:21,600 Speaker 2: than Lebron, but no one ever sent a search party. Meanwhile, 24 00:01:21,920 --> 00:01:24,520 Speaker 2: Ginger and mary Anne, they haven't had their ticket punched 25 00:01:24,520 --> 00:01:27,040 Speaker 2: in site, carried his own golf clubs yet. The Skipper 26 00:01:27,080 --> 00:01:30,400 Speaker 2: and Gilligan, they're asleep at the wheel and every episode 27 00:01:30,480 --> 00:01:36,440 Speaker 2: ends the same. You did it, little buddy. Okay enough, 28 00:01:36,959 --> 00:01:39,800 Speaker 2: that's how I feel about the Celtics. You've done nothing. 29 00:01:40,520 --> 00:01:46,119 Speaker 2: Stop talking. The series that's caught my eye, and I mean, 30 00:01:46,160 --> 00:01:49,919 Speaker 2: this is the Mass Thunder. The Mass showed me something 31 00:01:49,920 --> 00:01:53,640 Speaker 2: today and it wasn't just that. PJ. Washington once again 32 00:01:53,680 --> 00:01:57,400 Speaker 2: had a big game offensively twenty seven points, five to 33 00:01:57,480 --> 00:02:01,400 Speaker 2: three pointers. And I give it up Luca clearly he 34 00:02:01,640 --> 00:02:04,680 Speaker 2: is nowhere there one hundred percent. He's got ankle issues, 35 00:02:04,720 --> 00:02:08,480 Speaker 2: he's got knee issues. Still had twenty two Kyrie chipton 36 00:02:08,560 --> 00:02:12,760 Speaker 2: as well. The Thunder are a really good team. They 37 00:02:12,760 --> 00:02:14,960 Speaker 2: had a ten point lead, big run to start the 38 00:02:14,960 --> 00:02:18,720 Speaker 2: third quarter. But the MAVs, unlike the MAVs of old, 39 00:02:19,240 --> 00:02:23,880 Speaker 2: they found that second gear. Why well, I got a theory. 40 00:02:24,600 --> 00:02:29,160 Speaker 2: I actually think Luca finally has the support around him 41 00:02:29,200 --> 00:02:31,720 Speaker 2: that he needs to get to the NBA Finals. Not 42 00:02:31,800 --> 00:02:33,960 Speaker 2: predicting they're gonna do it. They're a long way from that. 43 00:02:35,040 --> 00:02:37,560 Speaker 2: But if you look at the Mavericks teams of the past, 44 00:02:38,880 --> 00:02:40,560 Speaker 2: and I kind of like Mark Cube and I interviewed 45 00:02:40,639 --> 00:02:42,600 Speaker 2: him once in his war room many years ago as 46 00:02:42,600 --> 00:02:47,000 Speaker 2: a good dude. You know he had Jalen Brunson. You 47 00:02:47,080 --> 00:02:49,200 Speaker 2: forgot Brunston was a Maverick, right, They had a little 48 00:02:49,240 --> 00:02:53,640 Speaker 2: run one year, but you needed Doncik to be Superman, 49 00:02:53,760 --> 00:02:56,560 Speaker 2: Batman and every superhero. That's the only way Dallas was 50 00:02:56,919 --> 00:03:01,760 Speaker 2: really going to get past the hump. If Daunchion couldn't 51 00:03:01,800 --> 00:03:05,600 Speaker 2: do that, Dallas wasn't gonna win. And that past has 52 00:03:05,639 --> 00:03:09,160 Speaker 2: been prologued until now. And the reason I'm giving Dallas 53 00:03:09,160 --> 00:03:12,280 Speaker 2: the flowers is that Oklahoma City isn't just some garden 54 00:03:12,360 --> 00:03:15,480 Speaker 2: variety number one seed. This is a team that's really 55 00:03:15,520 --> 00:03:18,480 Speaker 2: on the rise. They check a lot of boxes, a 56 00:03:18,480 --> 00:03:21,160 Speaker 2: lot of depth, a lot of versatility, a lot of athletics. 57 00:03:21,240 --> 00:03:26,560 Speaker 2: Is of elite shooters, good coaching, superstars. Donchis couldn't beat 58 00:03:26,560 --> 00:03:30,280 Speaker 2: this team by himself, right, Now PJ. Washington has fifty 59 00:03:30,280 --> 00:03:34,560 Speaker 2: five points in the last two games. And look why 60 00:03:35,240 --> 00:03:38,760 Speaker 2: the Thunder had been focusing on Luca, and now Luca's 61 00:03:38,800 --> 00:03:41,800 Speaker 2: got a foil that can help him. Derek Lively made 62 00:03:41,880 --> 00:03:45,200 Speaker 2: several clutch free throws when the Thunder tried to hack 63 00:03:45,280 --> 00:03:48,240 Speaker 2: him down the stretch. That strategy didn't work. And then 64 00:03:48,280 --> 00:03:52,760 Speaker 2: even Kyrie Uncle drew fourteen points in the fourth quarter, 65 00:03:53,480 --> 00:03:56,160 Speaker 2: he picked it up and kept the Mavericks afloat when 66 00:03:56,360 --> 00:04:00,400 Speaker 2: Dunchins was starting to run out of gas. Now, none 67 00:04:00,440 --> 00:04:03,520 Speaker 2: of these players were on the Mavericks roster the last 68 00:04:03,560 --> 00:04:06,600 Speaker 2: time they reached the postseason. Remember that goofy tank last 69 00:04:06,680 --> 00:04:09,560 Speaker 2: year after trading for Kyrie. By the way, neither was 70 00:04:09,600 --> 00:04:13,080 Speaker 2: Dereck Jones Junior, who I cover here at UNLV, A 71 00:04:13,120 --> 00:04:17,800 Speaker 2: world class athlete, decent NBA player, Daniel Gafford. These guys 72 00:04:17,880 --> 00:04:22,160 Speaker 2: are playing, These are essential workers. The whole has become 73 00:04:22,240 --> 00:04:25,480 Speaker 2: better than the sum of their parts. It's not just Luca, 74 00:04:26,200 --> 00:04:30,520 Speaker 2: by the way, mentioned that. Have you ever mentioned Dallas 75 00:04:30,600 --> 00:04:35,400 Speaker 2: the Mavericks and defense in the same sentence. Dallas is 76 00:04:35,440 --> 00:04:39,839 Speaker 2: actually slowing a gritty defense when they need to get stops, 77 00:04:40,400 --> 00:04:42,640 Speaker 2: and that's what Chuck Day used to say, start with 78 00:04:42,680 --> 00:04:45,400 Speaker 2: a stop. It's all about getting stops. You want to 79 00:04:45,400 --> 00:04:49,640 Speaker 2: close teams out in the fourth quarter, get stops. Here's 80 00:04:49,680 --> 00:04:54,479 Speaker 2: what else I noticed. The Mavericks didn't just beat Oklahoma City. 81 00:04:55,400 --> 00:04:58,200 Speaker 2: They beat him up a little bit, little bit of 82 00:04:58,240 --> 00:05:06,240 Speaker 2: bully ball. And Oklahoma City has had a sensational regular season. 83 00:05:06,600 --> 00:05:11,160 Speaker 2: But now, as you know, in the postseason, things tighten up. 84 00:05:12,080 --> 00:05:16,120 Speaker 2: Space tightens up, and even Stevie Wonder could look at 85 00:05:16,160 --> 00:05:18,839 Speaker 2: Oklahoma and the city and say, you have to wonder 86 00:05:18,920 --> 00:05:22,480 Speaker 2: if at some point their lack of big time size 87 00:05:22,839 --> 00:05:26,159 Speaker 2: might start to become an issue. It wasn't in the 88 00:05:26,200 --> 00:05:29,840 Speaker 2: first round, and it wasn't the first part of the 89 00:05:29,920 --> 00:05:35,040 Speaker 2: Dallas series. Matter of fact, Oklahoma City has been rebounding 90 00:05:35,080 --> 00:05:37,400 Speaker 2: the ball quite well in the postseason, even though the 91 00:05:37,480 --> 00:05:41,839 Speaker 2: only ranked twenty eighth the rebound during the regular season rebounding. 92 00:05:41,839 --> 00:05:46,120 Speaker 2: Excuse me, but here's the deal. Oklahoma City is so 93 00:05:46,600 --> 00:05:50,640 Speaker 2: elite pretty much everything they do, and they're so athletic, 94 00:05:51,440 --> 00:05:56,680 Speaker 2: and their incredible ability to space has been so noticeable 95 00:05:56,960 --> 00:05:59,000 Speaker 2: that you don't think about those little things. But now 96 00:05:59,279 --> 00:06:03,960 Speaker 2: the playoffs are a different animal. There was a stretch 97 00:06:04,000 --> 00:06:08,839 Speaker 2: in Saturday's game where the MAVs had fifteen straight rebounds 98 00:06:09,240 --> 00:06:13,039 Speaker 2: and then Oklahoma City got one. Now, Oklahoma City tried 99 00:06:13,040 --> 00:06:14,520 Speaker 2: to turn on the gas late in the game, but 100 00:06:14,560 --> 00:06:17,880 Speaker 2: they just couldn't do it. And this is a team 101 00:06:17,920 --> 00:06:23,720 Speaker 2: that's built to win despite this potential peccadillo. The other 102 00:06:23,800 --> 00:06:27,760 Speaker 2: thing you have to ask yourself, Look, it's quantum physics. 103 00:06:27,800 --> 00:06:31,880 Speaker 2: This Oklahoma City team is fun. They're really good. They 104 00:06:31,920 --> 00:06:36,000 Speaker 2: got stars, but they wouldn't be human. What do they have. 105 00:06:36,120 --> 00:06:40,520 Speaker 2: It's like fourteen, they're like fifteen years old each. They 106 00:06:40,520 --> 00:06:43,479 Speaker 2: made the shots in the Pelicans series. They made the 107 00:06:43,520 --> 00:06:46,440 Speaker 2: shots in the Dallas series in the first couple of games, 108 00:06:46,760 --> 00:06:49,479 Speaker 2: actually the first game. The last couple of games, though 109 00:06:50,600 --> 00:06:54,600 Speaker 2: Oklahoma City has missed a total of twenty three pointers. 110 00:06:54,839 --> 00:06:57,240 Speaker 2: They're not going through the hoop the way they were. 111 00:06:57,279 --> 00:07:01,120 Speaker 2: So what's going on here? Sometimes you know, things can 112 00:07:01,160 --> 00:07:04,960 Speaker 2: come and go, defense or scoring comes and goals, shooting 113 00:07:05,000 --> 00:07:08,560 Speaker 2: comes and goes. We all see that. But what you 114 00:07:08,680 --> 00:07:14,800 Speaker 2: are also seeing is that Oklahoma City is having to 115 00:07:14,840 --> 00:07:17,880 Speaker 2: struggle now a little bit more to create that elite 116 00:07:17,920 --> 00:07:21,680 Speaker 2: offense that you saw all year, and in doing so, 117 00:07:21,840 --> 00:07:23,960 Speaker 2: you wonder if they're starting to hold mental pictures in 118 00:07:24,000 --> 00:07:26,720 Speaker 2: their head of what they don't want to happen. They 119 00:07:26,800 --> 00:07:30,440 Speaker 2: passed up some good shots in search of trying to 120 00:07:30,440 --> 00:07:33,200 Speaker 2: get better shots, and those shots aren't coming. And so 121 00:07:33,360 --> 00:07:36,520 Speaker 2: now is it possible that the youngest team in the 122 00:07:36,640 --> 00:07:40,240 Speaker 2: NBA is starting to feel the pressure of the moment. 123 00:07:41,040 --> 00:07:44,440 Speaker 2: As John Wooden once said, pressure causes some people to 124 00:07:44,600 --> 00:07:48,880 Speaker 2: break others to break records. Now, this series is far 125 00:07:48,920 --> 00:07:51,880 Speaker 2: from over, but Game four is going to be very pivotal. 126 00:07:52,880 --> 00:07:56,440 Speaker 2: And this Oklahoma City Corps in terms of getting into 127 00:07:56,440 --> 00:08:01,560 Speaker 2: the playoffs, this is their first barbecue. It's all new 128 00:08:01,600 --> 00:08:06,000 Speaker 2: to them. They're giving birth. And you all know that 129 00:08:06,160 --> 00:08:09,760 Speaker 2: the NBA playoffs is a far different game. It's a 130 00:08:09,760 --> 00:08:14,960 Speaker 2: far different sport than the regular season, and there are 131 00:08:15,040 --> 00:08:18,080 Speaker 2: adjustments to make. And I have all good things to 132 00:08:18,080 --> 00:08:21,360 Speaker 2: say about Oklahoma City, but the truth of the matter 133 00:08:21,480 --> 00:08:24,280 Speaker 2: is they're learning on the job and the old Mike 134 00:08:24,360 --> 00:08:27,520 Speaker 2: Tyson line, everybody has got a plan. Do they get 135 00:08:27,600 --> 00:08:30,160 Speaker 2: hit Dallas has now hit them a couple times in 136 00:08:30,160 --> 00:08:33,240 Speaker 2: a row. We'll see what Oklahoma City can do in 137 00:08:33,280 --> 00:08:36,840 Speaker 2: Game four. Can they get back in the groove and 138 00:08:36,920 --> 00:08:40,280 Speaker 2: start showing that flashy offense that got them there in 139 00:08:40,320 --> 00:08:47,000 Speaker 2: the meantime, Dallas, You've actually caught my eye because Luca 140 00:08:47,320 --> 00:08:51,520 Speaker 2: might actually now have a supporting cast that will enable 141 00:08:51,559 --> 00:08:55,679 Speaker 2: this team to reach the potential that Mark Cuban has 142 00:08:55,679 --> 00:09:00,520 Speaker 2: always hoped they would have.

So before I get 171 00:10:27,120 --> 00:10:30,480 Speaker 2: to the Caitlin Clark prop craze, which is a very 172 00:10:30,520 --> 00:10:35,160 Speaker 2: real thing, and a doubleheader matchup NBA playoff wise for 173 00:10:35,360 --> 00:10:37,520 Speaker 2: Sunday that I'd like you to break down, I want 174 00:10:37,559 --> 00:10:41,760 Speaker 2: to talk about the Boston Celtics fourteen and fourteen at 175 00:10:41,760 --> 00:10:44,560 Speaker 2: home over the last four seasons, five and eight in 176 00:10:44,640 --> 00:10:49,480 Speaker 2: their last thirteen home playoff games. This book's missing a chapter, 177 00:10:49,600 --> 00:10:53,000 Speaker 2: yet in spite of it, there's still the odds on favorites. 178 00:10:53,600 --> 00:10:56,000 Speaker 2: You gotta lay a price minus one thirty to win 179 00:10:56,040 --> 00:10:59,320 Speaker 2: the NBA Championship this year. Are you buying them? 180 00:11:00,559 --> 00:11:03,200 Speaker 6: I don't think I am buying them to win it, 181 00:11:03,559 --> 00:11:06,720 Speaker 6: but I think the price makes sense. It definitely made 182 00:11:06,760 --> 00:11:10,200 Speaker 6: sense before tonight's game. I did think tonight's game, like 183 00:11:10,240 --> 00:11:13,040 Speaker 6: I bet Boston in the first quarter, I pushed the two, 184 00:11:13,240 --> 00:11:16,839 Speaker 6: and then the first half and the full game was 185 00:11:16,880 --> 00:11:21,559 Speaker 6: a relatively easy cover. I mean, let's be honest, Bernie, like, 186 00:11:21,600 --> 00:11:22,840 Speaker 6: it's a pretty easy road to. 187 00:11:22,840 --> 00:11:23,760 Speaker 2: Get to the finals. 188 00:11:24,679 --> 00:11:28,880 Speaker 6: I think what Minnesota may or may not do tomorrow 189 00:11:29,040 --> 00:11:31,920 Speaker 6: is going to tip the scales. For example, I think 190 00:11:32,480 --> 00:11:36,079 Speaker 6: if Minnesota ran through the left and looked as good 191 00:11:36,120 --> 00:11:39,480 Speaker 6: as they did in the first round against Denver and 192 00:11:39,800 --> 00:11:42,200 Speaker 6: really showed that they were the best team in the West, 193 00:11:42,400 --> 00:11:44,160 Speaker 6: because I think the best I think the winner of 194 00:11:44,200 --> 00:11:46,520 Speaker 6: the West will come out of that Minnesota Denver series. 195 00:11:48,240 --> 00:11:51,360 Speaker 6: You might have seen Boston's price kind of stay stagnant 196 00:11:51,360 --> 00:11:54,560 Speaker 6: throughout this run because Boston will at home court. But 197 00:11:54,679 --> 00:11:56,440 Speaker 6: it would be obvious to a lot of people that 198 00:11:56,480 --> 00:11:59,440 Speaker 6: Minnesota is the better team. So that kind of balances 199 00:11:59,440 --> 00:12:01,400 Speaker 6: the books a little bit. But now Minnesota's kind of 200 00:12:01,400 --> 00:12:03,480 Speaker 6: shown their age a little bit and Denver that could 201 00:12:03,480 --> 00:12:07,000 Speaker 6: be a long series, and we think Boston's gonna cruise 202 00:12:07,040 --> 00:12:08,959 Speaker 6: here right like, we think this is going to be 203 00:12:09,000 --> 00:12:11,959 Speaker 6: a five gamer for Boston and then they're gonna be 204 00:12:12,080 --> 00:12:15,680 Speaker 6: relatively rested facing a Knicks team that is just the 205 00:12:15,720 --> 00:12:19,320 Speaker 6: opposite of rested, and they're going to be in the finals, 206 00:12:19,360 --> 00:12:22,800 Speaker 6: probably sitting and waiting for this Western Conference war to 207 00:12:22,840 --> 00:12:25,680 Speaker 6: play out. So I think the price makes sense in 208 00:12:25,800 --> 00:12:29,080 Speaker 6: terms of where they'll be slated when the finals begin. 209 00:12:29,960 --> 00:12:33,800 Speaker 6: But I reserve the right to reassess my opinion based 210 00:12:33,800 --> 00:12:36,600 Speaker 6: off of who is in that finals matchup and then 211 00:12:36,679 --> 00:12:38,840 Speaker 6: what the price is going into game one. So I 212 00:12:38,840 --> 00:12:41,520 Speaker 6: think right now Boston minus won twenty makes sense. That 213 00:12:41,760 --> 00:12:45,240 Speaker 6: number will decrease until, you know, until we get to 214 00:12:45,280 --> 00:12:48,560 Speaker 6: the finals. But I think I might reassess the winner 215 00:12:48,600 --> 00:12:50,840 Speaker 6: of the finals once we get to the actual matchup. 216 00:12:51,280 --> 00:12:53,680 Speaker 2: All right, So I buy all of that based on 217 00:12:53,800 --> 00:12:56,640 Speaker 2: the distinction or based on the numbers, But I make 218 00:12:56,679 --> 00:13:00,599 Speaker 2: the distinction, and I think it's fair to presume the 219 00:13:00,679 --> 00:13:04,640 Speaker 2: Knicks are running out of bodies. Cleveland's were matched, It's 220 00:13:04,640 --> 00:13:08,280 Speaker 2: fair to presume you can pencil Boston in the finals, 221 00:13:08,320 --> 00:13:11,880 Speaker 2: and that's where I think the really begins. Okay, I 222 00:13:11,960 --> 00:13:15,600 Speaker 2: believe either or Minnesota and or Denver are not only 223 00:13:15,679 --> 00:13:18,680 Speaker 2: talented enough to beat Boston, I think they have the 224 00:13:18,800 --> 00:13:23,360 Speaker 2: type of matchup issues that would present real problems. So 225 00:13:23,920 --> 00:13:26,080 Speaker 2: I look at this team and they're sketchy to me, 226 00:13:26,200 --> 00:13:28,640 Speaker 2: and I don't like when Jason Tatum says, well, you 227 00:13:28,760 --> 00:13:30,720 Speaker 2: all expect us to win by twenty No, we don't. 228 00:13:30,760 --> 00:13:33,040 Speaker 2: We don't expect anything. You've never won anything. You walk 229 00:13:33,080 --> 00:13:36,200 Speaker 2: around like you're playing for a three pet But we 230 00:13:36,240 --> 00:13:39,400 Speaker 2: can question your performance. Wait, set that aside, because you're right, 231 00:13:39,480 --> 00:13:42,600 Speaker 2: this has to play itself out. And from a number standpoint, 232 00:13:42,760 --> 00:13:44,800 Speaker 2: I get it. This is why I like to have you. 233 00:13:45,040 --> 00:13:47,600 Speaker 2: Look you make the distinction. The sports book is not 234 00:13:47,760 --> 00:13:50,920 Speaker 2: in the fortune telling business. They're not in the prediction business. 235 00:13:50,920 --> 00:13:54,199 Speaker 2: They're merely trying to manage risk. So that number makes sense. 236 00:13:54,440 --> 00:13:58,400 Speaker 2: So we'll see what happens when we as the playoffs continue. 237 00:13:59,200 --> 00:14:02,559 Speaker 2: So Jared look ahead. It's a pretty intriguing doubleheader tomorrow 238 00:14:02,640 --> 00:14:06,559 Speaker 2: Knicks Pacers twelve thirty Pacific next catching five and a half. 239 00:14:07,000 --> 00:14:09,480 Speaker 2: Og On an Obi is not gonna play. I'll be 240 00:14:09,520 --> 00:14:12,680 Speaker 2: shocked if he pulls a Willis Reid deal. But yeah, 241 00:14:13,640 --> 00:14:17,839 Speaker 2: but this Pacers team, to me, is very distracted. Your 242 00:14:17,840 --> 00:14:21,440 Speaker 2: thoughts are on that game from a betting standpoint, well, 243 00:14:21,520 --> 00:14:22,880 Speaker 2: I think the. 244 00:14:22,840 --> 00:14:25,880 Speaker 6: Original opening line in Game three was pretty much what 245 00:14:26,000 --> 00:14:29,480 Speaker 6: the number is now right, and what happened in game 246 00:14:29,560 --> 00:14:33,480 Speaker 6: three is and I always liked the market dynamics to me, 247 00:14:33,520 --> 00:14:35,920 Speaker 6: and you can you nail it like we're not fortune tellings. 248 00:14:35,920 --> 00:14:38,200 Speaker 6: I have no idea how these games are going to 249 00:14:38,240 --> 00:14:39,960 Speaker 6: play out, but I can I can kind of analyze 250 00:14:39,960 --> 00:14:43,560 Speaker 6: where the market is. So Game three, Indiana in the 251 00:14:43,600 --> 00:14:46,640 Speaker 6: desperation spot, right, it was the obvious spot. The Knicks 252 00:14:46,640 --> 00:14:48,880 Speaker 6: were banged up. They were fortunate to win Game two, 253 00:14:48,960 --> 00:14:50,760 Speaker 6: they pulled it out brunts and was heard he came 254 00:14:50,800 --> 00:14:52,000 Speaker 6: back and all of a sudden they won. 255 00:14:52,640 --> 00:14:54,120 Speaker 3: And then they get to. 256 00:14:54,080 --> 00:14:57,960 Speaker 6: Game three, and it's the obvious bounceback spot for Indiana. 257 00:14:58,080 --> 00:15:00,360 Speaker 6: So number opens five to five and a half stretches 258 00:15:00,400 --> 00:15:02,080 Speaker 6: out to seven seven and a half. I mean in 259 00:15:02,120 --> 00:15:04,800 Speaker 6: the NBA playoffs, that's a big move, seven being a 260 00:15:04,840 --> 00:15:08,800 Speaker 6: relatively key number. So and obviously the game was really tight, 261 00:15:08,880 --> 00:15:11,040 Speaker 6: and I'll be honest, could have doll either way. Frankly, 262 00:15:11,120 --> 00:15:13,560 Speaker 6: Andrew Denmark hit won a thirty five footer for the 263 00:15:13,560 --> 00:15:16,240 Speaker 6: win on a step back. So you know that game 264 00:15:16,320 --> 00:15:19,000 Speaker 6: was tied late and and I think it was obvious 265 00:15:19,040 --> 00:15:20,880 Speaker 6: that the market got that one wrong. You know, the 266 00:15:20,960 --> 00:15:22,800 Speaker 6: Knicks at the seven and a half point dog was 267 00:15:22,800 --> 00:15:25,680 Speaker 6: a fantastic bet. Now the market opens five and a 268 00:15:25,680 --> 00:15:28,520 Speaker 6: half again in Game four, and what happens, no movement 269 00:15:28,560 --> 00:15:28,840 Speaker 6: at all. 270 00:15:28,840 --> 00:15:30,160 Speaker 7: We're still sitting five and a half. 271 00:15:30,200 --> 00:15:33,040 Speaker 6: So I think that again, the market telling you that, 272 00:15:33,480 --> 00:15:38,280 Speaker 6: all right, this obvious home win spot for Indiana, I 273 00:15:38,280 --> 00:15:40,720 Speaker 6: think is maybe we need to be a little more 274 00:15:40,800 --> 00:15:43,280 Speaker 6: cautious there. I do think this is I mean, I'm 275 00:15:43,320 --> 00:15:46,520 Speaker 6: a Knicks Van Bernie. I strapped it every time they 276 00:15:46,600 --> 00:15:50,080 Speaker 6: play a playoff game, like, I've never seen a team 277 00:15:50,280 --> 00:15:54,680 Speaker 6: so scrappy and so, you know, playing above what the 278 00:15:54,680 --> 00:15:57,520 Speaker 6: back of their basketball cards should say based off who's 279 00:15:57,560 --> 00:16:00,240 Speaker 6: on the floor and the type of production that they've had. 280 00:16:00,320 --> 00:16:01,920 Speaker 6: So I think the Knicks are. 281 00:16:01,840 --> 00:16:03,640 Speaker 2: Very live here. I would not be passing all. 282 00:16:03,440 --> 00:16:06,840 Speaker 6: If they won this game. And I think from a 283 00:16:06,880 --> 00:16:09,480 Speaker 6: prop perspective, I mean, just bet Josh hartovers the dudes 284 00:16:09,480 --> 00:16:11,600 Speaker 6: on the floor for every minute of every game, just 285 00:16:11,640 --> 00:16:13,960 Speaker 6: based on a volume perspective. I don't know if the 286 00:16:13,960 --> 00:16:16,480 Speaker 6: sportsbooks can catch up fast enough with those numbers. De 287 00:16:16,600 --> 00:16:19,080 Speaker 6: Vincenzo's game has been fantastic. He's a guy that's going 288 00:16:19,120 --> 00:16:22,000 Speaker 6: to get extended run. One of the role players has 289 00:16:22,040 --> 00:16:23,400 Speaker 6: to play well for the Knicks to win. 290 00:16:23,480 --> 00:16:24,800 Speaker 2: So if you like the Knicks to win. 291 00:16:25,080 --> 00:16:28,160 Speaker 6: Miles McBride has to hit a few threes. Alec Burks 292 00:16:28,200 --> 00:16:30,520 Speaker 6: has to roll back the clock and do miraculous things. 293 00:16:30,520 --> 00:16:32,160 Speaker 6: I don't know how he, you know, is all of 294 00:16:32,200 --> 00:16:33,680 Speaker 6: a sudden a factor in the series. 295 00:16:33,720 --> 00:16:35,000 Speaker 7: So one of those. 296 00:16:34,840 --> 00:16:37,440 Speaker 6: Guys has to step up. It can't just be Brunton. 297 00:16:37,840 --> 00:16:40,600 Speaker 6: I think Josh Hart makes sense from a rebounding perspective, 298 00:16:40,680 --> 00:16:42,520 Speaker 6: but you know, scoring wise, has got to be de 299 00:16:42,600 --> 00:16:44,720 Speaker 6: Vincenzo or McBride or Burke sitting threes. 300 00:16:45,840 --> 00:16:49,800 Speaker 2: This number tells me either Knicks backers have shown up, 301 00:16:50,160 --> 00:16:54,600 Speaker 2: because yeah, Anonobe is out, and yet the Pacers are 302 00:16:54,680 --> 00:16:56,360 Speaker 2: laying one and a half points less than they were 303 00:16:56,360 --> 00:16:59,680 Speaker 2: in Game three. I don't know. I'm not gonna be 304 00:16:59,720 --> 00:17:01,720 Speaker 2: involved in the game, but a gun to my head, 305 00:17:01,880 --> 00:17:04,600 Speaker 2: the only sat I could look to would would be 306 00:17:04,640 --> 00:17:09,200 Speaker 2: the Knicks. Let's look at the Nuggets, Timberwolves. Minnesota land 307 00:17:09,240 --> 00:17:11,359 Speaker 2: two and a half. They were laying four and a 308 00:17:11,400 --> 00:17:14,880 Speaker 2: half the other night. I thought it was a masterclass 309 00:17:15,080 --> 00:17:19,240 Speaker 2: by Denver getting them in the half court offense, dragging 310 00:17:19,280 --> 00:17:21,879 Speaker 2: Minnesota into a game. They're not really built to play 311 00:17:22,400 --> 00:17:26,879 Speaker 2: and you know, watching Jokic run the offense from the 312 00:17:26,960 --> 00:17:30,720 Speaker 2: high post, his ability to find cutters, shooters, create, you know, 313 00:17:30,800 --> 00:17:35,560 Speaker 2: his own shots. Denver finally looked like Denver, what do 314 00:17:35,600 --> 00:17:38,160 Speaker 2: you expect to happen Sunday? Because I think this Minnesota 315 00:17:38,200 --> 00:17:38,960 Speaker 2: team is very good. 316 00:17:40,240 --> 00:17:42,640 Speaker 6: I think they're fantastic, but I also think they're very 317 00:17:42,680 --> 00:17:47,000 Speaker 6: young and very inexperienced and very vulnerable. And it's not 318 00:17:47,119 --> 00:17:52,800 Speaker 6: the same situation, but championship teams when they get one, 319 00:17:53,280 --> 00:17:56,840 Speaker 6: especially on the road, it's almost like they've got you 320 00:17:57,000 --> 00:18:00,160 Speaker 6: right where they want you. In the twenty one Finals 321 00:18:00,280 --> 00:18:02,040 Speaker 6: when the Sun, now they were at home when they 322 00:18:02,080 --> 00:18:03,639 Speaker 6: went up two oh, and then they went on the 323 00:18:03,680 --> 00:18:04,960 Speaker 6: road and lost fourth straight. 324 00:18:05,560 --> 00:18:07,240 Speaker 2: But that's what this reminds. 325 00:18:06,880 --> 00:18:10,320 Speaker 6: Me of Suns throwing up two to oh on the Bucks. 326 00:18:10,560 --> 00:18:13,879 Speaker 6: The Bucks go home in Game three and they just 327 00:18:14,440 --> 00:18:17,920 Speaker 6: they just look like the championship Bucks, and then they 328 00:18:17,920 --> 00:18:20,720 Speaker 6: didn't lose another game the rest of that series. I 329 00:18:20,760 --> 00:18:23,000 Speaker 6: think Nuggets and six makes a lot of sense to me. 330 00:18:23,720 --> 00:18:26,520 Speaker 6: I think the Nuggets can even lose tomorrow and still 331 00:18:26,560 --> 00:18:27,840 Speaker 6: feel confident that they can. 332 00:18:27,720 --> 00:18:28,280 Speaker 2: Win the series. 333 00:18:28,320 --> 00:18:30,480 Speaker 7: Because again, we use this cliche a. 334 00:18:30,480 --> 00:18:33,600 Speaker 6: Lot in the media business. And in the gambling space, 335 00:18:33,640 --> 00:18:35,639 Speaker 6: I think it holds more value than most cliches do. 336 00:18:35,680 --> 00:18:38,359 Speaker 6: It's the series doesn't start until the home team loses, right, 337 00:18:38,680 --> 00:18:42,680 Speaker 6: So this series starts very early. But then the team 338 00:18:42,760 --> 00:18:45,879 Speaker 6: that you know went into Denver and knocked out the 339 00:18:45,960 --> 00:18:49,240 Speaker 6: chance to in a row, went back home and had 340 00:18:49,240 --> 00:18:52,920 Speaker 6: all the confidence in the world and got blasted. I 341 00:18:52,960 --> 00:18:55,800 Speaker 6: think as much as Minnesotas looked like the best team 342 00:18:55,840 --> 00:18:58,840 Speaker 6: in this in this playoffs so far, I think that 343 00:18:59,000 --> 00:19:03,000 Speaker 6: winning Game three, Denver's the title. Like Denver's the chance again, 344 00:19:03,320 --> 00:19:06,199 Speaker 6: and I expect them to win this game tomorrow and 345 00:19:06,240 --> 00:19:08,600 Speaker 6: I expect them to frankly win the series. Even if 346 00:19:08,600 --> 00:19:10,760 Speaker 6: they don't win tomorrow, I still expect them to win 347 00:19:10,800 --> 00:19:13,000 Speaker 6: the series. I do think mojo is a real thing. 348 00:19:13,280 --> 00:19:16,560 Speaker 6: Momentum is real, and this Denver team I think got 349 00:19:16,680 --> 00:19:19,480 Speaker 6: some of it back. Now Minnesota coul shoot lights out 350 00:19:19,520 --> 00:19:23,360 Speaker 6: and it could be a completely different game. But if 351 00:19:23,400 --> 00:19:26,680 Speaker 6: you wanted to ask me if I think Minnesota still 352 00:19:26,680 --> 00:19:28,400 Speaker 6: has control of the series up to one at home, 353 00:19:28,480 --> 00:19:29,880 Speaker 6: I don't think they do. 354 00:19:30,760 --> 00:19:34,280 Speaker 2: I think your analysis is very cute. I had Darren 355 00:19:34,760 --> 00:19:37,600 Speaker 2: McKee from Altitude Sports in Denver on last night. He 356 00:19:37,680 --> 00:19:41,960 Speaker 2: told me after the team watched on TV shack at 357 00:19:42,000 --> 00:19:45,359 Speaker 2: you know, create a very clunky interview with Nikola Yuko. 358 00:19:45,440 --> 00:19:47,120 Speaker 6: Oh yeah, that was so bud. 359 00:19:47,160 --> 00:19:50,080 Speaker 2: Apparently inside the four walls that really lit a fire 360 00:19:50,160 --> 00:19:52,520 Speaker 2: under their butt. And now you've got an angry Denver 361 00:19:52,600 --> 00:19:54,600 Speaker 2: team and you saw what they did, so I think 362 00:19:54,640 --> 00:19:57,760 Speaker 2: you may very well be honest something talk with Jared Smith. 363 00:19:57,800 --> 00:20:00,280 Speaker 2: You hear him Saturday mornings here on Fox Sports Radio 364 00:20:00,280 --> 00:20:03,080 Speaker 2: and certainly during football season a countdown to kickoff. All right, 365 00:20:03,160 --> 00:20:05,639 Speaker 2: this phenomenon with Caitlin Clark and all the props to 366 00:20:05,680 --> 00:20:07,960 Speaker 2: me has really caught my eye. 367 00:20:07,960 --> 00:20:08,280 Speaker 8: This is. 368 00:20:10,000 --> 00:20:12,960 Speaker 2: You know, there's gonna be some real handle on this, Jared, 369 00:20:13,480 --> 00:20:15,679 Speaker 2: And I am not a prop player by design. You 370 00:20:15,680 --> 00:20:17,560 Speaker 2: got to pick your spots. You can't be you know, 371 00:20:17,840 --> 00:20:20,439 Speaker 2: all things. But there are a couple of these that 372 00:20:20,560 --> 00:20:24,200 Speaker 2: caught my eye. Not because I don't have faith in 373 00:20:24,280 --> 00:20:26,520 Speaker 2: Caitlin Clark to do to be a very good pro 374 00:20:27,280 --> 00:20:29,560 Speaker 2: but I could only look at some of the unders. 375 00:20:29,760 --> 00:20:32,240 Speaker 2: Eight hundred and fifty total regular season points. If you 376 00:20:32,400 --> 00:20:34,040 Speaker 2: do the math and look what she's got to do. 377 00:20:34,680 --> 00:20:36,440 Speaker 2: I don't know how she gets to that number when 378 00:20:36,440 --> 00:20:39,439 Speaker 2: you know they're gonna really focus on her, and also 379 00:20:39,840 --> 00:20:41,879 Speaker 2: she's not playing for a very good team. Have you 380 00:20:41,920 --> 00:20:44,080 Speaker 2: taken a look at some of these Caitlyn Clark props 381 00:20:44,240 --> 00:20:45,639 Speaker 2: and you have thoughts on them? 382 00:20:46,600 --> 00:20:49,000 Speaker 6: I'll be honest, I didn't even know that they existed. 383 00:20:49,040 --> 00:20:49,680 Speaker 2: I do know that. 384 00:20:49,680 --> 00:20:55,000 Speaker 6: There are a lot of obviously exotics around her situation 385 00:20:55,119 --> 00:20:59,240 Speaker 6: because I think the sportsbooks understand that she is an 386 00:20:59,240 --> 00:21:03,840 Speaker 6: opportunity to get not only a better but also just 387 00:21:03,880 --> 00:21:05,280 Speaker 6: people betting on the WNBA. 388 00:21:05,560 --> 00:21:07,280 Speaker 7: Listen, I think I. 389 00:21:07,240 --> 00:21:11,720 Speaker 6: Have thoughts on the women's sports betting realm. I think 390 00:21:11,720 --> 00:21:14,639 Speaker 6: it's the most untapped market we have in our space. 391 00:21:15,040 --> 00:21:19,280 Speaker 6: I honestly do. I have tried to dip my toes 392 00:21:19,359 --> 00:21:20,480 Speaker 6: into that realm. 393 00:21:20,880 --> 00:21:22,439 Speaker 2: It's hard for me for two reasons. 394 00:21:22,480 --> 00:21:25,400 Speaker 6: One, I don't watch the games as much as other 395 00:21:25,440 --> 00:21:28,399 Speaker 6: people who do, so me offering betting advice in that 396 00:21:28,480 --> 00:21:32,200 Speaker 6: space is kind of disingenuous. Secondly, I don't have time because. 397 00:21:31,960 --> 00:21:32,280 Speaker 7: Of all this. 398 00:21:33,240 --> 00:21:35,320 Speaker 2: I wish. I wish, Bernie. 399 00:21:35,480 --> 00:21:38,919 Speaker 6: I wish in the summer when the WNBA is on, 400 00:21:39,840 --> 00:21:42,919 Speaker 6: I didn't have baseball on my brain every day. I 401 00:21:43,040 --> 00:21:47,640 Speaker 6: wish in the winter, when you know NFL college football, 402 00:21:47,680 --> 00:21:50,359 Speaker 6: et cetera, and men's college basketball is starting to heat up. 403 00:21:50,600 --> 00:21:53,840 Speaker 6: I could focus more on women's college basketball. Those markets 404 00:21:53,880 --> 00:21:58,320 Speaker 6: are feeding frenzies. They are untapped markets. It's like, think 405 00:21:58,359 --> 00:22:01,479 Speaker 6: of it, if you're a skier, powder not a lot 406 00:22:01,520 --> 00:22:01,919 Speaker 6: of people. 407 00:22:02,000 --> 00:22:06,720 Speaker 2: You're not kidding fat They've got a menu here to 408 00:22:06,760 --> 00:22:09,120 Speaker 2: beat the band. I mean there's some you know, will 409 00:22:09,200 --> 00:22:11,879 Speaker 2: Caitlin Clark score fifty or more points in any regular 410 00:22:11,920 --> 00:22:14,280 Speaker 2: season game? You get sixteen to one, I think it's 411 00:22:14,280 --> 00:22:17,479 Speaker 2: a fugazy bet. One hundred and thirty main three pointers 412 00:22:17,520 --> 00:22:19,600 Speaker 2: for the entire season, you got to lay minus one forty. 413 00:22:20,280 --> 00:22:22,119 Speaker 2: Really a lot to choose from. I didn't mean to 414 00:22:22,119 --> 00:22:25,359 Speaker 2: put you on the spot there anyway. Final thoughts going forward. 415 00:22:25,160 --> 00:22:27,280 Speaker 6: You're good. I think those are good markets. I do 416 00:22:27,359 --> 00:22:29,879 Speaker 6: think those are good markets to look in. I just 417 00:22:29,920 --> 00:22:31,560 Speaker 6: think you have to pick your spots. 418 00:22:32,000 --> 00:22:34,119 Speaker 2: Jared, great stuff as always. I know you're one of 419 00:22:34,160 --> 00:22:36,240 Speaker 2: the hardest working men in rock and roll.

He is very bullish on Jason Tatum, 496 00:26:23,760 --> 00:26:26,560 Speaker 2: and he predicted that Jason Tatum would have a tremendous 497 00:26:27,119 --> 00:26:33,120 Speaker 2: bounce back performance in Game three, and he has done 498 00:26:33,160 --> 00:26:37,760 Speaker 2: that before. Chris Mannis correctly said that in Game six 499 00:26:37,840 --> 00:26:41,399 Speaker 2: of the twenty twenty two Conference Finals, when Jason Tatum 500 00:26:41,440 --> 00:26:44,120 Speaker 2: went off against the Bucks, and then Game seven last 501 00:26:44,200 --> 00:26:48,080 Speaker 2: season against the Philadelphia seventy six ers bounced back games. 502 00:26:48,280 --> 00:26:50,240 Speaker 2: He said, we're going to be talking about Game three 503 00:26:50,920 --> 00:26:54,520 Speaker 2: against the Cleveland Cavaniers because he's going to go off. Well. 504 00:26:54,880 --> 00:26:59,040 Speaker 2: Give Mannix credit. He said Tayson would score well over 505 00:26:59,080 --> 00:27:02,760 Speaker 2: thirty points, if not four already wasn't really far off, okay. 506 00:27:03,640 --> 00:27:07,800 Speaker 2: Tatum set the tone early, back to back three pointers 507 00:27:07,880 --> 00:27:10,159 Speaker 2: in his first two shot attempts Paul points to the 508 00:27:10,200 --> 00:27:12,960 Speaker 2: first quarter, finished with eighteen in the first half, set 509 00:27:13,000 --> 00:27:15,879 Speaker 2: the tone seven rebounds, three assists, of blocking the steel. 510 00:27:15,920 --> 00:27:18,920 Speaker 2: I believe he ended up with thirty three points. He 511 00:27:19,040 --> 00:27:20,680 Speaker 2: kept his foot on the gas. He was eleven to 512 00:27:20,800 --> 00:27:25,320 Speaker 2: twenty five from the floor, double double, thirteen boards, six assists, 513 00:27:25,359 --> 00:27:29,359 Speaker 2: played forty two minutes. Didn't shoot great from behind the arc, 514 00:27:29,400 --> 00:27:31,280 Speaker 2: but let's not you know, pick on the wart on 515 00:27:31,359 --> 00:27:34,560 Speaker 2: Lincoln's nose. For the most part, Jason Tatum put on 516 00:27:34,640 --> 00:27:37,680 Speaker 2: a show in a game that he did need to 517 00:27:37,840 --> 00:27:44,440 Speaker 2: make a statement in, but again it was against Cleveland, Okay, Boston. 518 00:27:45,840 --> 00:27:49,520 Speaker 2: There are expectations, and if the Celtics fail to meet 519 00:27:49,560 --> 00:27:53,040 Speaker 2: those expectations, then I think there is going to be 520 00:27:53,160 --> 00:27:57,040 Speaker 2: tremendous teeth gnashing when you look at this roster. And 521 00:27:57,160 --> 00:28:00,639 Speaker 2: I am not at all sold that when they get 522 00:28:00,680 --> 00:28:02,920 Speaker 2: to the NBA Finals, and it seems likely they will 523 00:28:03,359 --> 00:28:05,080 Speaker 2: that if you put them on the floor with Denver, 524 00:28:05,200 --> 00:28:06,920 Speaker 2: they're in big trouble. You put them on the floor 525 00:28:06,960 --> 00:28:10,240 Speaker 2: with Minnesota, I think it's a coin flip. And yes, 526 00:28:10,359 --> 00:28:16,600 Speaker 2: Minnesota youth could rear its head. It could. But I 527 00:28:16,960 --> 00:28:18,880 Speaker 2: was an intern at the Forum when twenty year old 528 00:28:18,920 --> 00:28:21,040 Speaker 2: Magic Johnson, who should have been a junior at Michigan 529 00:28:21,080 --> 00:28:24,960 Speaker 2: State scored you know, forty two points and John Center 530 00:28:24,960 --> 00:28:27,200 Speaker 2: played all three positions and they weren't supposed to beat 531 00:28:27,440 --> 00:28:30,000 Speaker 2: the Philadelphia seventy six ers and six in Philadelphia, but 532 00:28:30,080 --> 00:28:32,680 Speaker 2: they did. Every day a new star is born, and 533 00:28:32,720 --> 00:28:35,040 Speaker 2: I tell you Anthony Edwards is worth the price of admission. 534 00:28:35,119 --> 00:28:38,560 Speaker 2: So I'm really starting to get into these NBA playoffs. 535 00:28:38,600 --> 00:28:42,000 Speaker 2: But Boston a lot of times, when you know, when 536 00:28:42,000 --> 00:28:43,880 Speaker 2: all of a sudden done, more is said than done. 537 00:28:43,920 --> 00:28:48,360 Speaker 2: So I will give Jason Tatum his props for a 538 00:28:48,600 --> 00:28:52,320 Speaker 2: bounce back performance on Saturday night, But you got a 539 00:28:52,360 --> 00:28:54,720 Speaker 2: long way to go, and you're nowhere near getting there. 540 00:28:55,120 --> 00:28:58,520 Speaker 2: All right, Tuesday, the w NBA season starts. We are 541 00:28:58,560 --> 00:29:01,640 Speaker 2: in a whole new world. Caitlin Clark is making her 542 00:29:02,600 --> 00:29:06,640 Speaker 2: NBA or check that w NBA debut Tuesday May fourteenth 543 00:29:06,680 --> 00:29:10,000 Speaker 2: against the Connecticut Sun and the game would be broadcast 544 00:29:10,080 --> 00:29:13,200 Speaker 2: on ESPN, tow would be streaming on Disney Plus. And 545 00:29:14,360 --> 00:29:18,600 Speaker 2: the Fever just drew thirteen thousand for a preseason game. 546 00:29:19,320 --> 00:29:23,000 Speaker 2: They were averaging four thousand last year during the regular season. 547 00:29:23,200 --> 00:29:25,320 Speaker 2: When Caitlin Clark comes to Las Vegas to play the 548 00:29:25,880 --> 00:29:28,760 Speaker 2: defending champ Aces, two time champ ass. The game has 549 00:29:28,800 --> 00:29:32,440 Speaker 2: been moved to T Mobile Arena. So here's where it 550 00:29:32,480 --> 00:29:35,240 Speaker 2: really gets fun. There's lots of ways to bet on 551 00:29:35,480 --> 00:29:38,680 Speaker 2: Caitlin Clark and the Yanniana Fever. And I think you'll 552 00:29:38,720 --> 00:29:42,200 Speaker 2: be very intrigued when I share with you some of 553 00:29:42,240 --> 00:29:45,600 Speaker 2: the ways you can do it. And this is gonna work. 554 00:29:45,960 --> 00:29:49,120 Speaker 2: The books are smart. They have found a way for 555 00:29:49,240 --> 00:29:52,680 Speaker 2: the average Joe to enhance his viewing participation in these games, 556 00:29:53,040 --> 00:29:55,720 Speaker 2: feed his competitive spirit, and maybe win a buck or 557 00:29:55,760 --> 00:30:01,320 Speaker 2: two while enjoying WNBA basketball. I'll tell this is really 558 00:30:01,360 --> 00:30:04,000 Speaker 2: a boon for the WNBA in a way they don't 559 00:30:04,080 --> 00:30:07,680 Speaker 2: even know how yet. Yeah, just yet. You'll see I'm 560 00:30:07,720 --> 00:30:09,880 Speaker 2: Bertie Frida or comedy line from the Las Vegas Fox 561 00:30:09,880 --> 00:30:12,520 Speaker 2: Sports Radio Tireck dot Com Studios.

Take you after three and Pacific six am Eastern. 567 00:30:31,720 --> 00:30:34,280 Speaker 2: Just getting started top of the r of Mark Medina, 568 00:30:34,480 --> 00:30:40,120 Speaker 2: Medina Magic all things NBA. But before we get to that, Tuesday, 569 00:30:40,520 --> 00:30:45,320 Speaker 2: May fourteenth, Caitlin Clark and the Indiana Fever they tip 570 00:30:45,400 --> 00:30:48,880 Speaker 2: off the new season and this will be I believe, 571 00:30:48,920 --> 00:30:51,720 Speaker 2: the most watched season in the history of the NBA 572 00:30:52,600 --> 00:30:55,120 Speaker 2: WNBA excuse me, which maybe is insane a whole hell 573 00:30:55,120 --> 00:30:57,320 Speaker 2: of a lot. That's maybe like being the best hockey 574 00:30:57,400 --> 00:31:00,240 Speaker 2: player from Argentina. This is a league that's been around 575 00:31:00,240 --> 00:31:02,400 Speaker 2: twenty five years. They lose money every year, but they're 576 00:31:02,440 --> 00:31:07,720 Speaker 2: gaining popularity and doing a better job I think of 577 00:31:07,800 --> 00:31:11,000 Speaker 2: promoting their stars, and clearly they have one on Kitland Clark. 578 00:31:11,080 --> 00:31:14,080 Speaker 2: You may wonder, why couldn't you bet on Kitland Clark 579 00:31:14,120 --> 00:31:16,640 Speaker 2: in college? What's a little tricky, you're there. Different states 580 00:31:16,680 --> 00:31:19,440 Speaker 2: have different guidelines for betting on college sports, even though 581 00:31:19,440 --> 00:31:22,160 Speaker 2: you could bet on Iowa. But see the beauity. Now 582 00:31:22,440 --> 00:31:26,640 Speaker 2: of the products that exist within the realm of sports 583 00:31:26,720 --> 00:31:31,280 Speaker 2: betting is that there are prop bets. Proposition bets have 584 00:31:31,400 --> 00:31:33,760 Speaker 2: nothing to do with the outcome of the game. They 585 00:31:33,840 --> 00:31:39,080 Speaker 2: have everything to do with individual performances and well key performances, 586 00:31:39,160 --> 00:31:45,400 Speaker 2: but specifically individual performances like this. Okay, you can bet 587 00:31:45,800 --> 00:31:50,480 Speaker 2: will Kitland Clark's first basket a regular season, Will it 588 00:31:50,560 --> 00:31:53,160 Speaker 2: be a three pointer? You have to lay minus one 589 00:31:53,280 --> 00:31:56,200 Speaker 2: seventy five to make one hundred, which I think makes sense. 590 00:31:57,200 --> 00:32:01,040 Speaker 2: That seems like her first basket in Yes, well, I 591 00:32:01,120 --> 00:32:03,040 Speaker 2: guess a free throw wouldn't count, but you'd have to 592 00:32:03,080 --> 00:32:08,800 Speaker 2: read the rules. Will Caitlin Clark average twenty two points 593 00:32:08,880 --> 00:32:11,960 Speaker 2: a game or more in the regular season? She must 594 00:32:12,000 --> 00:32:14,840 Speaker 2: play at least twenty eight of the regular season games 595 00:32:14,840 --> 00:32:17,960 Speaker 2: they play forty games in the WNBA. You have to 596 00:32:18,000 --> 00:32:22,600 Speaker 2: bet minus one sixty. So these suggest that the sportsbooks 597 00:32:22,680 --> 00:32:26,840 Speaker 2: expect the odds are that Caitlin Clark will average twenty 598 00:32:26,880 --> 00:32:29,400 Speaker 2: two points or more and her first basket will be 599 00:32:30,040 --> 00:32:32,520 Speaker 2: a three pointer. Now here's where it gets interesting. But 600 00:32:32,600 --> 00:32:35,040 Speaker 2: by the way, you can even You can even bet 601 00:32:35,120 --> 00:32:39,080 Speaker 2: will Caitlin Clark lead the Indiana Fever in scoring in 602 00:32:39,200 --> 00:32:41,920 Speaker 2: the twenty twenty four regular season. That's minus three eighty. 603 00:32:42,000 --> 00:32:44,640 Speaker 2: I mean, you have to bet you have to post 604 00:32:44,720 --> 00:32:47,400 Speaker 2: three hundred and eighty dollars to win one hundred. Will 605 00:32:47,480 --> 00:32:52,000 Speaker 2: Caitlyn Clark record one hundred and thirty or more made 606 00:32:52,240 --> 00:32:56,240 Speaker 2: three pointers in the twenty twenty four regular season. Now 607 00:32:56,920 --> 00:32:59,120 Speaker 2: there are forty games she'd have to average a little 608 00:32:59,160 --> 00:33:03,320 Speaker 2: more than three games. That seems reasonable all things considered, 609 00:33:03,720 --> 00:33:05,440 Speaker 2: but I'm not a prop player. Too many things can 610 00:33:05,520 --> 00:33:09,080 Speaker 2: go wrong. That's minus one forty. Here's where some other 611 00:33:09,600 --> 00:33:13,520 Speaker 2: you heard Jared use the word exotics to record three 612 00:33:14,000 --> 00:33:17,200 Speaker 2: plus triple doubles in the twenty twenty four season. Could 613 00:33:17,240 --> 00:33:20,000 Speaker 2: Kitlyn Clark do that? Can she have at least three 614 00:33:20,240 --> 00:33:24,440 Speaker 2: or more triple doubles in the twenty twenty four regular season? See? Now, 615 00:33:24,520 --> 00:33:27,880 Speaker 2: that's plus one ninety. That means you put up one 616 00:33:27,960 --> 00:33:32,480 Speaker 2: hundred dollars, you win one hundred ninety. This one's caught 617 00:33:32,520 --> 00:33:34,200 Speaker 2: my eye and it's even money. And again, you have 618 00:33:34,280 --> 00:33:36,640 Speaker 2: to play at least twenty eight regular season games for 619 00:33:36,720 --> 00:33:40,840 Speaker 2: this bet to cash. Will Caitlyn Clark record at least 620 00:33:41,040 --> 00:33:45,880 Speaker 2: one made three pointer in every single twenty twenty four 621 00:33:45,960 --> 00:33:49,680 Speaker 2: regular season games she plays? Now, again, you must you know, 622 00:33:49,800 --> 00:33:51,800 Speaker 2: she can't just play three games and take the rest 623 00:33:51,800 --> 00:33:53,680 Speaker 2: of the year off. You gotta pay at least twenty 624 00:33:53,680 --> 00:33:57,800 Speaker 2: eight regular season games. That's even money. Here's where it 625 00:33:57,840 --> 00:34:04,120 Speaker 2: gets even more entertaining. Caitlin Clark, will she, at any 626 00:34:04,240 --> 00:34:08,400 Speaker 2: time during the season make ten three pointers in a 627 00:34:08,520 --> 00:34:10,080 Speaker 2: single game? Ten? 628 00:34:11,800 --> 00:34:12,000 Speaker 7: Well? 629 00:34:12,960 --> 00:34:14,960 Speaker 2: If you are one of those folks that likes to 630 00:34:15,040 --> 00:34:17,399 Speaker 2: bet a little to win a lot, which I don't 631 00:34:17,440 --> 00:34:19,239 Speaker 2: recommend you should always bet a little to win a 632 00:34:19,280 --> 00:34:21,439 Speaker 2: little more. You bet a little to win a little 633 00:34:21,480 --> 00:34:23,560 Speaker 2: a lot. This might be your play if you if 634 00:34:23,600 --> 00:34:26,040 Speaker 2: you're feeling saucy. You only got to do it one time. 635 00:34:27,440 --> 00:34:31,320 Speaker 2: One hundred dollars brings back seven hundred dollars. Now, any 636 00:34:31,400 --> 00:34:35,440 Speaker 2: time with Kaitlyn Clark score fifty points in any regular 637 00:34:35,840 --> 00:34:39,520 Speaker 2: season game, that's sixteen to one, one hundred dollars bringing 638 00:34:39,600 --> 00:34:41,880 Speaker 2: back sixteen hundred. Now you are getting into what I 639 00:34:42,120 --> 00:34:46,320 Speaker 2: call the shooting babies at the moon bets, kneil and 640 00:34:46,360 --> 00:34:49,480 Speaker 2: a haystack bets. Don't do it. I don't recommend you 641 00:34:49,600 --> 00:34:51,920 Speaker 2: do it. By the way, you know what the single 642 00:34:52,200 --> 00:34:55,640 Speaker 2: season scoring record or check out a single game scoring 643 00:34:55,719 --> 00:34:59,600 Speaker 2: record in the WNBA is all time fifty four points 644 00:34:59,640 --> 00:35:03,759 Speaker 2: in a game. Fifty four For Kitlin Clark to do that, 645 00:35:03,880 --> 00:35:07,839 Speaker 2: one hundred dollars are bringing back twenty one hundred dollars. Now. 646 00:35:08,760 --> 00:35:12,600 Speaker 2: Caitlin Clark is the runaway favorite to win Rookie of 647 00:35:12,640 --> 00:35:17,520 Speaker 2: the Year. Some sportsbooks are giving her, you know, one 648 00:35:17,560 --> 00:35:20,080 Speaker 2: to seven. Meet you you'd have to bet seven hundred 649 00:35:20,120 --> 00:35:22,800 Speaker 2: dollars to win one hundred dollars, and in borring anything, goofy. 650 00:35:22,960 --> 00:35:25,200 Speaker 2: It feels like Kitlin Clark should be the rookie year. 651 00:35:25,360 --> 00:35:27,600 Speaker 2: They're not getting any of my money on that kind 652 00:35:27,600 --> 00:35:32,680 Speaker 2: of stuff. Look, sportsbooks will also have odds for all 653 00:35:32,760 --> 00:35:37,640 Speaker 2: the Fevers games, right, and the Fever will be underdogs 654 00:35:37,680 --> 00:35:40,120 Speaker 2: a lot, So that's something you can you can always 655 00:35:40,160 --> 00:35:44,440 Speaker 2: bet on. But you know, I think there's gonna be 656 00:35:44,480 --> 00:35:46,640 Speaker 2: a lot of attention on Caitlyn Clark. There's gonna be 657 00:35:46,680 --> 00:35:48,640 Speaker 2: a lot of pressure. There's not a dot in my mind. 658 00:35:48,719 --> 00:35:51,200 Speaker 2: She's gonna do very well. I truly believe that. How 659 00:35:51,320 --> 00:35:52,160 Speaker 2: is her team gonna do? 660 00:35:52,920 --> 00:35:53,279 Speaker 6: I don't know. 661 00:35:53,880 --> 00:35:56,160 Speaker 2: They went thirteen and twenty seven last year, they had 662 00:35:56,200 --> 00:36:00,759 Speaker 2: the third worst record in the WNBA, and they open 663 00:36:00,880 --> 00:36:03,000 Speaker 2: up against the Connecticut Set. I haven't seen the line yet. 664 00:36:03,160 --> 00:36:05,920 Speaker 2: They lost all four games to the Connecticut Sun last year, 665 00:36:06,719 --> 00:36:11,200 Speaker 2: the last two games they lost by double digits. But again, 666 00:36:11,800 --> 00:36:15,080 Speaker 2: there are some bets that have sort of caught my eye. 667 00:36:16,080 --> 00:36:19,879 Speaker 2: For instance, add up the number of points and make 668 00:36:19,960 --> 00:36:25,160 Speaker 2: no mistaken, they're gonna write tickets on her. There are 669 00:36:25,280 --> 00:36:28,360 Speaker 2: going to be a lot of people betting on these props. 670 00:36:29,719 --> 00:36:33,320 Speaker 2: People get high making the bet. They love you know, 671 00:36:33,680 --> 00:36:35,600 Speaker 2: when you win, great, when you lose it sad, But 672 00:36:36,160 --> 00:36:41,239 Speaker 2: truly they've studied this. Gambling enhances the viewing participation for 673 00:36:41,360 --> 00:36:45,520 Speaker 2: the better, feeds their competitive spirit, allows them an opportunity 674 00:36:45,600 --> 00:36:49,480 Speaker 2: to enjoy the entertainment just that much more. Caitlin Clark's 675 00:36:49,520 --> 00:36:52,360 Speaker 2: clearly changed the face of basketball. There's a ground swollow 676 00:36:52,360 --> 00:36:56,080 Speaker 2: of excitement that they just haven't seen. It's not just 677 00:36:56,760 --> 00:36:59,280 Speaker 2: you know, these betting props. There's an increase in ticket sales, 678 00:36:59,320 --> 00:37:03,600 Speaker 2: there's women's peril, the fanatics, Jersey sold out. I mean, 679 00:37:03,640 --> 00:37:07,080 Speaker 2: the number is just keep to break, you know, they 680 00:37:07,239 --> 00:37:09,480 Speaker 2: just keep breaking new ground every time you turn around. 681 00:37:10,880 --> 00:37:13,919 Speaker 2: A couple of those that I mentioned to Jared, I'd 682 00:37:13,960 --> 00:37:16,399 Speaker 2: look to the under in these cool Caitlin Clark score 683 00:37:16,400 --> 00:37:19,239 Speaker 2: eight hundred and fifty regular season points in forty games. Again, 684 00:37:19,239 --> 00:37:21,719 Speaker 2: you got to average over twenty two points a game 685 00:37:21,800 --> 00:37:26,360 Speaker 2: to do that. Now, here's why I would have to 686 00:37:26,400 --> 00:37:29,640 Speaker 2: look to the under. If you look at last year's 687 00:37:30,080 --> 00:37:34,000 Speaker 2: WNBA regular season, there are only three players in the 688 00:37:34,200 --> 00:37:38,759 Speaker 2: entire league, Jewel Lloyd, Brianna Stewart and Asia Wilson for 689 00:37:38,920 --> 00:37:43,879 Speaker 2: the Champion of Vegas the Las Vegas as is. Only 690 00:37:44,000 --> 00:37:47,200 Speaker 2: three of them exceeded that total in the entire league 691 00:37:47,239 --> 00:37:50,040 Speaker 2: last year. I want to say, I think there's like 692 00:37:50,040 --> 00:37:52,640 Speaker 2: one hundred and fifty six players in the WNBA three 693 00:37:53,600 --> 00:37:57,480 Speaker 2: and all three of them are established w NBA stars, 694 00:37:57,920 --> 00:38:00,520 Speaker 2: none of them are rookies. In order for Clark to 695 00:38:00,560 --> 00:38:03,000 Speaker 2: get to eight fifty, she's got a average almost twenty 696 00:38:03,040 --> 00:38:07,320 Speaker 2: two points a game, and I think you can go 697 00:38:07,480 --> 00:38:10,560 Speaker 2: back twenty five years. I think Cynthia Cooper is the 698 00:38:10,640 --> 00:38:12,000 Speaker 2: only one to have done that. There might have been 699 00:38:12,040 --> 00:38:14,960 Speaker 2: somebody else. She's got the talent to do it. But 700 00:38:15,080 --> 00:38:17,719 Speaker 2: remember she's coming off this rigorous college season. She's got 701 00:38:17,719 --> 00:38:20,320 Speaker 2: the white hot spotlight every time she turns around, and 702 00:38:20,440 --> 00:38:24,000 Speaker 2: there's a rookie initiation. You know, I don't really go 703 00:38:24,120 --> 00:38:27,680 Speaker 2: for what Diana Tarassi said or what Cheryl Swoof said. 704 00:38:28,480 --> 00:38:30,360 Speaker 2: I think they're out of their mind and they're jealous. 705 00:38:30,680 --> 00:38:33,160 Speaker 2: But the bottom line is this, she's gonna have a 706 00:38:33,200 --> 00:38:35,640 Speaker 2: little bit of a brick wall. The WNBA is a 707 00:38:35,680 --> 00:38:40,279 Speaker 2: big step up from college, all right. The other thing, 708 00:38:40,800 --> 00:38:42,600 Speaker 2: I don't know if she'll make one hundred and thirty 709 00:38:42,640 --> 00:38:46,440 Speaker 2: five three pointers in the regular season. That's the number 710 00:38:47,160 --> 00:38:48,520 Speaker 2: that she's got a clear. 711 00:38:50,000 --> 00:38:50,640 Speaker 7: To do that. 712 00:38:50,800 --> 00:38:54,960 Speaker 2: That's a lot. That's a lot, and again this is 713 00:38:55,000 --> 00:38:59,280 Speaker 2: a sucker number. That number would break the single season record. 714 00:38:59,400 --> 00:39:01,800 Speaker 2: And so for Kitlyn Clark to play the get the 715 00:39:01,880 --> 00:39:05,040 Speaker 2: over on that, she'd have to break the single season record, 716 00:39:05,160 --> 00:39:07,759 Speaker 2: which was just set last year by Sabrina and Escu. 717 00:39:08,880 --> 00:39:12,160 Speaker 2: And you know, that's a pretty fast company. The final 718 00:39:12,239 --> 00:39:14,520 Speaker 2: one for me, that feels like a no brainer. Can 719 00:39:14,600 --> 00:39:18,080 Speaker 2: the Indiana Fever win more than twenty point five regular 720 00:39:18,120 --> 00:39:23,439 Speaker 2: season games? I think that's highly doubtful. The Indiana Fever 721 00:39:23,600 --> 00:39:26,759 Speaker 2: only won thirteen games last year. And to give you 722 00:39:26,880 --> 00:39:30,680 Speaker 2: some perspective, there are only four teams in the WNBA 723 00:39:30,800 --> 00:39:33,360 Speaker 2: that won more than twenty games last year. Two of 724 00:39:33,400 --> 00:39:37,320 Speaker 2: them were conference champions, the Aces and Liberty. So this 725 00:39:37,520 --> 00:39:40,440 Speaker 2: is going to be fun to watch. Take your chances, 726 00:39:40,800 --> 00:39:44,560 Speaker 2: places your bets, have some fun. I think you can 727 00:39:44,640 --> 00:39:50,240 Speaker 2: call it clarkonomics. She's changing the dynamic women's basketball and frankly, 728 00:39:50,560 --> 00:39:53,640 Speaker 2: we're all here for it. Otherwise who wouldn't be talking 729 00:39:53,680 --> 00:39:58,280 Speaker 2: about it? Coming up?

We've got coaching changes, we've 741 00:40:35,239 --> 00:40:39,200 Speaker 2: got proclamations, we've got teeth gnashing and complaining. And that 742 00:40:39,360 --> 00:40:42,640 Speaker 2: is why when you get to midnight at the Bernie 743 00:40:42,640 --> 00:40:45,439 Speaker 2: Frattle Show on Saturday nights, three words, it's that time. 744 00:40:46,680 --> 00:40:50,440 Speaker 2: It's welcome and our guy Mark Medina a little Medina 745 00:40:50,520 --> 00:40:53,719 Speaker 2: Magic every Saturday night, fifty two weeks out of the 746 00:40:53,800 --> 00:40:57,839 Speaker 2: year because there's always news in the NBA, and Mark, 747 00:40:57,920 --> 00:40:59,640 Speaker 2: I've got to start with this one. One of my 748 00:40:59,719 --> 00:41:04,440 Speaker 2: lists asked me specifically, given Austin Rivers comments the other 749 00:41:04,520 --> 00:41:07,680 Speaker 2: day about how you could just simply drop thirty NBA 750 00:41:07,840 --> 00:41:11,719 Speaker 2: players into an NFL game, no problem. Has there been 751 00:41:11,880 --> 00:41:15,560 Speaker 2: any kind of water cooler chatter about that in your circles? 752 00:41:16,880 --> 00:41:19,600 Speaker 7: Not really. I mean it's a cool conversation to be 753 00:41:19,719 --> 00:41:22,359 Speaker 7: had that comes up from time to time. But I think, 754 00:41:22,440 --> 00:41:27,040 Speaker 7: in fairness to both NFL and NBA players completely different sport, 755 00:41:27,239 --> 00:41:30,840 Speaker 7: completely different makeup. I think the only real players that 756 00:41:30,920 --> 00:41:34,680 Speaker 7: could be instantly transferable would be players like Lebron James 757 00:41:35,200 --> 00:41:38,080 Speaker 7: and Dyan Williamson. I actually remember talking to some players 758 00:41:38,200 --> 00:41:41,000 Speaker 7: last season for a poll about this idea of who 759 00:41:41,040 --> 00:41:44,120 Speaker 7: would make a great all NFL team, and really the 760 00:41:44,440 --> 00:41:48,759 Speaker 7: only unanimous picks that people had were Lebron James and 761 00:41:48,880 --> 00:41:51,640 Speaker 7: Ziant Wimson because of their physical makeup. And everyone else 762 00:41:52,360 --> 00:41:54,520 Speaker 7: it was kind of a stretch and just a fun 763 00:41:54,600 --> 00:41:56,320 Speaker 7: exercise and nothing more than that. 764 00:41:56,880 --> 00:42:00,879 Speaker 2: Well, three words high speed collisions. I mean, the NBA 765 00:42:01,000 --> 00:42:03,840 Speaker 2: is a contact sport. The NFL is a high speed 766 00:42:03,880 --> 00:42:06,600 Speaker 2: collision sport. It's a game of attrition. I guess it's 767 00:42:06,640 --> 00:42:10,800 Speaker 2: fun to talk about. I'm not sold Lebron could do it, 768 00:42:10,920 --> 00:42:13,040 Speaker 2: but what does it matter? What does it matter? He's 769 00:42:13,040 --> 00:42:16,239 Speaker 2: busy with other things, all right? The big we're gonna 770 00:42:16,239 --> 00:42:17,719 Speaker 2: get to the playoffs. But really kind of the big 771 00:42:17,800 --> 00:42:22,320 Speaker 2: news of the week is Phoenix hiring Mike Budenholzer. You know, 772 00:42:22,360 --> 00:42:25,040 Speaker 2: you let Frank Vogel go. I mean, the Big three 773 00:42:25,120 --> 00:42:27,919 Speaker 2: were only available forty one games this year. I feel 774 00:42:28,000 --> 00:42:32,440 Speaker 2: like Budenholzer is walking to an incredibly high pressure pack situation. 775 00:42:33,880 --> 00:42:36,279 Speaker 2: What are your thoughts. They must have really wanted him 776 00:42:36,320 --> 00:42:39,840 Speaker 2: badly because Vogel had four years left on his contract. 777 00:42:40,000 --> 00:42:41,600 Speaker 2: Is this feel like a bit of a reach to you? 778 00:42:42,520 --> 00:42:45,200 Speaker 7: Well, I think it's a good hire because Mike Boldenholzer, 779 00:42:45,320 --> 00:42:48,919 Speaker 7: he's won championships. He's a respective head coach, I think 780 00:42:49,000 --> 00:42:51,400 Speaker 7: compared to Frank Vogel. Even though I think Frank Vogel 781 00:42:51,480 --> 00:42:53,600 Speaker 7: is a good coach, his strengths for more on the 782 00:42:53,680 --> 00:42:58,200 Speaker 7: defensive end. The Sun's roster wasn't really defensively equipped, and 783 00:42:58,320 --> 00:43:01,680 Speaker 7: you look at Mike Boldenholzer, he's more of an offensive guru. 784 00:43:01,840 --> 00:43:05,160 Speaker 7: But that being said, I think that, yeah, Mike Boldenholzer 785 00:43:05,239 --> 00:43:07,560 Speaker 7: doesn't have any job security because we saw that the 786 00:43:07,680 --> 00:43:10,399 Speaker 7: Sons are willing to fire a head coach after one 787 00:43:10,520 --> 00:43:13,920 Speaker 7: season and two the roster flaws of the roster flaws 788 00:43:14,000 --> 00:43:17,479 Speaker 7: I think the Sun's Big three, Kevin Durant, Bradley Beal, 789 00:43:18,160 --> 00:43:21,320 Speaker 7: and Devin Booker, their on court chemistry was great, but 790 00:43:21,400 --> 00:43:23,359 Speaker 7: the problem was what you just mentioned. They didn't play 791 00:43:23,440 --> 00:43:27,239 Speaker 7: enough games together and the roster deficiencies exposed itself. So 792 00:43:27,560 --> 00:43:30,880 Speaker 7: keep this in mind. They didn't have veteran minimum guys 793 00:43:30,920 --> 00:43:36,880 Speaker 7: that were just scrubs. Eric Gordon, you know, Josef Nerkic Garret, Allen, 794 00:43:37,360 --> 00:43:41,000 Speaker 7: Royce O'Neil. Those are all serviceable rotation players, but you 795 00:43:41,160 --> 00:43:45,080 Speaker 7: also need defensive oriented players because you don't have that 796 00:43:46,040 --> 00:43:49,200 Speaker 7: in the top of your food chain here beyond Kevin Durant, 797 00:43:49,320 --> 00:43:51,880 Speaker 7: you know, being an occasional defender. So I don't think 798 00:43:51,920 --> 00:43:54,839 Speaker 7: that Frank Vogel was put in a position to succeed there. 799 00:43:56,000 --> 00:43:58,840 Speaker 7: So yeah, I think Mike Boldenholzer can help the offense, 800 00:43:58,960 --> 00:44:03,680 Speaker 7: but it's roster driven. As far as their issues scaling, 801 00:44:03,760 --> 00:44:06,600 Speaker 7: the problem here is they can't really have any mechanism 802 00:44:06,800 --> 00:44:09,239 Speaker 7: to improve from within. They can shuffle the deck with 803 00:44:09,400 --> 00:44:12,319 Speaker 7: rotation players, so that doesn't do anything dramatically. The only 804 00:44:12,400 --> 00:44:14,400 Speaker 7: thing that will be a dramatic change is if they 805 00:44:14,560 --> 00:44:18,279 Speaker 7: make a really tough decision in dealing Kevin durant Han 806 00:44:18,480 --> 00:44:20,919 Speaker 7: or Devin Booker. But that doesn't seem to be mad. 807 00:44:20,960 --> 00:44:23,320 Speaker 7: I should be as m because he doesn't want to rebuild. 808 00:44:23,360 --> 00:44:26,840 Speaker 2: He wants to win now, I gotta tell you, and 809 00:44:26,920 --> 00:44:29,759 Speaker 2: you articulate that very well, Mark, but I'm trying to 810 00:44:29,800 --> 00:44:33,440 Speaker 2: wrack my brain. Budenholzer will be the franchise's third head 811 00:44:33,480 --> 00:44:36,239 Speaker 2: coach in three seasons. Remember they fired Monty Williams and 812 00:44:36,320 --> 00:44:39,640 Speaker 2: then Frank Vogel in successive years. I understand one of 813 00:44:39,680 --> 00:44:43,120 Speaker 2: the driving factors. Budenholzers from Arizona. His father was a 814 00:44:43,160 --> 00:44:45,800 Speaker 2: well regarded high school coach in Arizona. And yes, he 815 00:44:45,920 --> 00:44:48,840 Speaker 2: won the twenty twenty one NBA Championship with the Bucks. 816 00:44:49,120 --> 00:44:51,680 Speaker 2: This feels like a situation where they're just trying to 817 00:44:51,719 --> 00:44:54,440 Speaker 2: sell a press conference. How if you really have a 818 00:44:54,480 --> 00:44:56,480 Speaker 2: gun to your head. I know we don't like that analogy, 819 00:44:56,560 --> 00:44:59,640 Speaker 2: but bottom line is, do you really expect Budenholzer to 820 00:44:59,680 --> 00:45:00,520 Speaker 2: produce results? 821 00:45:01,600 --> 00:45:04,680 Speaker 7: I think he'll produce results. And I will slightly push 822 00:45:04,840 --> 00:45:08,520 Speaker 7: back here. I think that his come pound connections are 823 00:45:08,600 --> 00:45:11,879 Speaker 7: nice storylines, but I think the bigger driving forces He's 824 00:45:11,920 --> 00:45:14,839 Speaker 7: had a kind of coaching experience. He's won a championship, 825 00:45:15,360 --> 00:45:17,759 Speaker 7: and I think that he's seen as a player, as 826 00:45:17,800 --> 00:45:21,760 Speaker 7: a coach that can hold players more accountable than Frank Vogel. 827 00:45:21,800 --> 00:45:26,359 Speaker 7: Frank Vogel can certainly do that, but he isn't seen 828 00:45:26,400 --> 00:45:29,560 Speaker 7: as someone that has a real demonstrative personality. But I 829 00:45:29,640 --> 00:45:33,520 Speaker 7: think to your larger point, I don't think that the 830 00:45:33,600 --> 00:45:37,680 Speaker 7: head coach is going to solve or create the problems. 831 00:45:37,800 --> 00:45:42,120 Speaker 7: The problems are the roster construction and the availability of 832 00:45:42,200 --> 00:45:45,480 Speaker 7: that roster, and so I think it'll yield improvement, but 833 00:45:45,600 --> 00:45:49,440 Speaker 7: I don't think they kind of improvement that Mattashpia is expected. 834 00:45:49,440 --> 00:45:52,000 Speaker 7: And that's an NBA championship talk with. 835 00:45:52,040 --> 00:45:54,879 Speaker 2: Mark Medina Medina Magic every Saturday night at midnight here 836 00:45:55,080 --> 00:46:00,640 Speaker 2: on the Bernie Frattle Show. Just wait, and the Lakers 837 00:46:00,640 --> 00:46:02,239 Speaker 2: are going to be front and center here because the 838 00:46:02,360 --> 00:46:03,839 Speaker 2: draft be coming up. We'll have to see if they 839 00:46:03,920 --> 00:46:06,800 Speaker 2: draft Brownie, which they very might well do. But I 840 00:46:06,880 --> 00:46:11,560 Speaker 2: got just thinking, Mark, they have designs on winning a championship. Again, 841 00:46:11,640 --> 00:46:14,640 Speaker 2: I know they do. I don't have faith they will. 842 00:46:15,160 --> 00:46:18,000 Speaker 2: But if you look at their roster composition four years ago, 843 00:46:18,520 --> 00:46:21,080 Speaker 2: when they had guys like caseb and Danny Green and 844 00:46:21,160 --> 00:46:26,280 Speaker 2: Kyle Kuzma, they had shooters. Is it possible the Lakers 845 00:46:26,360 --> 00:46:29,440 Speaker 2: try to recreate that in some form or fashion to 846 00:46:29,560 --> 00:46:31,520 Speaker 2: replicate what they had for years ago when they were 847 00:46:31,520 --> 00:46:32,360 Speaker 2: able to win in the bubble. 848 00:46:33,239 --> 00:46:35,480 Speaker 7: That very well could be the case, because I think 849 00:46:35,560 --> 00:46:39,560 Speaker 7: that while there isn't necessarily a long or right answer, 850 00:46:39,680 --> 00:46:42,279 Speaker 7: so long as the Lakers have a good roster as 851 00:46:42,360 --> 00:46:46,960 Speaker 7: far as Kata third star or having continuity, Lebron James 852 00:46:47,239 --> 00:46:49,760 Speaker 7: and Anthony Davis have shown that they're most affective together 853 00:46:49,920 --> 00:46:54,640 Speaker 7: when they have roster depths, so I would expect that 854 00:46:54,960 --> 00:46:58,320 Speaker 7: they're not going to go the continuity route necessarily. Because 855 00:46:59,160 --> 00:47:02,879 Speaker 7: they try that here and they yielded a first round 856 00:47:02,920 --> 00:47:04,640 Speaker 7: exit to Denver. I think they had more to do 857 00:47:04,719 --> 00:47:07,000 Speaker 7: with Denver than anything else, But I think it also 858 00:47:07,120 --> 00:47:10,279 Speaker 7: showed the limitations of the role players they retained. So 859 00:47:10,400 --> 00:47:14,600 Speaker 7: now it's about finding the right role players in rotation players. 860 00:47:14,719 --> 00:47:17,400 Speaker 7: So I think I want to be surprised that they 861 00:47:17,480 --> 00:47:20,120 Speaker 7: do that. They do have more assets to work with 862 00:47:20,640 --> 00:47:23,880 Speaker 7: with three draft picks on NBA Draft Night, maybe they 863 00:47:23,920 --> 00:47:26,240 Speaker 7: could do a sign and trade with D'Angel Russell. That's 864 00:47:26,280 --> 00:47:29,480 Speaker 7: not guaranteed because he can just walk out right assuming 865 00:47:29,560 --> 00:47:33,000 Speaker 7: he opts out of his player options. But I want 866 00:47:33,040 --> 00:47:35,759 Speaker 7: to be surprised they do that. But let's be honest here. 867 00:47:35,880 --> 00:47:39,080 Speaker 7: Given the Lakers, they're always going to be aggressive if 868 00:47:39,120 --> 00:47:42,560 Speaker 7: there is a star player available. But I think in 869 00:47:42,719 --> 00:47:45,960 Speaker 7: light of the Russell Westbrook fiasco, they'll only go down 870 00:47:46,040 --> 00:47:49,000 Speaker 7: that avenue if they're not having to gut their entire roster. 871 00:47:50,320 --> 00:47:53,480 Speaker 2: Mark question for you, And this is a little snarky, 872 00:47:53,560 --> 00:47:56,600 Speaker 2: but so Patrick Mahomes did it, Tom Brady did it. 873 00:47:57,400 --> 00:48:00,440 Speaker 2: With the all knowing, all powerful. Lebron take a pay 874 00:48:00,480 --> 00:48:03,319 Speaker 2: cut like Mahomes and Brady did so the Lakers could 875 00:48:03,400 --> 00:48:04,640 Speaker 2: perhaps bolster their roster. 876 00:48:06,239 --> 00:48:09,399 Speaker 7: It's a nice idea to ask, but one I don't 877 00:48:09,440 --> 00:48:12,600 Speaker 7: know why Lebron James would do that. I think from 878 00:48:12,680 --> 00:48:16,080 Speaker 7: his perspective, he's the one who produced at a high 879 00:48:16,160 --> 00:48:19,719 Speaker 7: level the last year and it didn't do anything. But 880 00:48:19,760 --> 00:48:23,000 Speaker 7: I think the bigger thing is, and it's a misnomer, 881 00:48:23,840 --> 00:48:26,200 Speaker 7: just because he gives a pay cut doesn't mean that 882 00:48:26,360 --> 00:48:29,440 Speaker 7: the Lakers all of a sudden have more resources to 883 00:48:29,640 --> 00:48:31,960 Speaker 7: fill out the rest of the roster. The reason is 884 00:48:32,040 --> 00:48:34,880 Speaker 7: because they're over the cap, and so they're still going 885 00:48:34,960 --> 00:48:36,759 Speaker 7: to be over the cap. Unless you know, if he 886 00:48:36,800 --> 00:48:39,719 Speaker 7: wants to do the better minimum. But yeah, I mean 887 00:48:39,760 --> 00:48:42,200 Speaker 7: it's a nice talking point. But even in fairness to 888 00:48:42,280 --> 00:48:45,360 Speaker 7: any star player that say they want to win, like, 889 00:48:45,800 --> 00:48:47,400 Speaker 7: no one would do that. We want to do that, 890 00:48:47,560 --> 00:48:50,080 Speaker 7: so why should we ask a star player to do that? 891 00:48:50,239 --> 00:48:53,560 Speaker 2: But that's fair? Go ahead, I'm sorry, Yeah, I would. 892 00:48:53,920 --> 00:48:56,360 Speaker 7: I would say this. If there is a difference between 893 00:48:57,280 --> 00:49:00,000 Speaker 7: shaving a few million dollars off here or there because 894 00:49:00,200 --> 00:49:03,360 Speaker 7: of salary cap space, that's one thing, but that's not 895 00:49:03,520 --> 00:49:05,880 Speaker 7: the parameters that the Lakers are working with. And the 896 00:49:06,040 --> 00:49:09,000 Speaker 7: you know what, Lebron's defense for all the flack that 897 00:49:09,120 --> 00:49:12,200 Speaker 7: he got with how he went to Miami, he made 898 00:49:12,239 --> 00:49:15,239 Speaker 7: that happen partly because he took a pay cut then 899 00:49:15,280 --> 00:49:18,200 Speaker 7: he could have made otherwise. But in this case it 900 00:49:18,239 --> 00:49:19,000 Speaker 7: doesn't really apply. 901 00:49:19,400 --> 00:49:21,759 Speaker 2: All right, well, fair enough and all the more easy. Look, 902 00:49:22,440 --> 00:49:24,760 Speaker 2: Mahomes did it, Brady did it. I understand the dynamic, 903 00:49:24,880 --> 00:49:27,040 Speaker 2: and even Byron Scott should know that you can't have 904 00:49:27,080 --> 00:49:29,719 Speaker 2: a player coach in the viet now right with with 905 00:49:29,920 --> 00:49:33,000 Speaker 2: the with the new with the new CBA rules for 906 00:49:33,200 --> 00:49:35,000 Speaker 2: for for obvious reasons. 907 00:49:35,360 --> 00:49:39,680 Speaker 7: To be clear, you know, Byron Scott's a great person, 908 00:49:39,760 --> 00:49:42,799 Speaker 7: But I think, Oh, I think he's very tongue in cheek. 909 00:49:42,880 --> 00:49:45,520 Speaker 7: To be clear, this isn't a new CBA role. This 910 00:49:45,680 --> 00:49:48,360 Speaker 7: is a CBA role that's been an existence for a 911 00:49:48,440 --> 00:49:53,080 Speaker 7: while thirty. Yeah, I think the only example I can 912 00:49:53,160 --> 00:49:55,360 Speaker 7: think of is when Bill Russell was playing with the 913 00:49:55,440 --> 00:49:56,120 Speaker 7: Celtics and that. 914 00:49:56,280 --> 00:49:59,960 Speaker 2: Was what Dave Collins. Dave Collins was the player coach. 915 00:50:00,880 --> 00:50:04,160 Speaker 7: He good too. But yeah, that obviously can't apply. 916 00:50:05,440 --> 00:50:09,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, I just draw that as an analogy. To listen, 917 00:50:10,200 --> 00:50:12,239 Speaker 2: certain teams have a way of maneuvering around and you know, 918 00:50:12,320 --> 00:50:15,040 Speaker 2: there are plenty of teams that have no problems spending 919 00:50:15,120 --> 00:50:18,120 Speaker 2: way over the cap in the NBA, and they find 920 00:50:18,200 --> 00:50:21,560 Speaker 2: ways to do it. Let's talk about the Clippers. They 921 00:50:21,600 --> 00:50:23,200 Speaker 2: move into their shining new toy next. 922 00:50:23,120 --> 00:50:27,279 Speaker 7: Year, what are they going to do well for what 923 00:50:27,440 --> 00:50:30,880 Speaker 7: it's worth. Lawrence Frank spoke earlier this week. I was 924 00:50:30,920 --> 00:50:33,359 Speaker 7: at his press conference and he was saying that they 925 00:50:33,400 --> 00:50:35,359 Speaker 7: want to bring back Paul George, they want to get 926 00:50:35,440 --> 00:50:38,840 Speaker 7: James Harden. But in the same token he is saying this, 927 00:50:39,480 --> 00:50:41,719 Speaker 7: it would be naive to think, you know, we can 928 00:50:41,880 --> 00:50:43,839 Speaker 7: just run it back and everything will be fine. That's 929 00:50:43,840 --> 00:50:47,279 Speaker 7: not how we team build and I'm paraphrasing loosely, but 930 00:50:47,400 --> 00:50:52,320 Speaker 7: that's essentially the message. So what do I gather from that? A. 931 00:50:53,120 --> 00:50:55,279 Speaker 7: They're committed to Kawhi Leonard. They already sign him to 932 00:50:55,280 --> 00:50:58,960 Speaker 7: an extension, even though he has his injury history. In 933 00:50:59,080 --> 00:51:02,440 Speaker 7: Lawrence words, Lawrence Frank's words, he's a top five player 934 00:51:02,520 --> 00:51:05,160 Speaker 7: went healthy. So I think one of the driving forces 935 00:51:05,280 --> 00:51:07,560 Speaker 7: is they want to have something to sell went into 936 00:51:07,600 --> 00:51:09,719 Speaker 7: a Dome open next season. But they also think this 937 00:51:09,840 --> 00:51:13,160 Speaker 7: is their best path to win. But when it comes 938 00:51:13,239 --> 00:51:15,719 Speaker 7: to Paul George and James Harden, some of this is 939 00:51:15,760 --> 00:51:19,520 Speaker 7: outside of the Clippers control. But if they retain them, 940 00:51:20,160 --> 00:51:22,880 Speaker 7: I think it's about just having a starting point for 941 00:51:23,120 --> 00:51:26,640 Speaker 7: next season so that you know they have a winning product. 942 00:51:26,760 --> 00:51:29,080 Speaker 7: But I want to be surprised if they are flipped 943 00:51:29,640 --> 00:51:32,600 Speaker 7: in deals later in the trade deadline, almost like what 944 00:51:32,760 --> 00:51:35,960 Speaker 7: happened with Blake Griffin when they signed him and had 945 00:51:36,000 --> 00:51:40,800 Speaker 7: this huge press conference and compared them to different civil 946 00:51:40,880 --> 00:51:44,680 Speaker 7: rights leaders as if he made that kind of impact 947 00:51:44,760 --> 00:51:47,680 Speaker 7: with the Clippers. I don't think they'll do that same 948 00:51:47,719 --> 00:51:50,120 Speaker 7: press conference that was a mistake, but I want to 949 00:51:50,160 --> 00:51:53,120 Speaker 7: be surprised that they do the same sort of deal 950 00:51:53,160 --> 00:51:56,600 Speaker 7: where it's about securing them so they have assets moving forward. 951 00:51:57,440 --> 00:51:59,839 Speaker 2: Talking with Mark Medina and Medina Magic every Saturday Night 952 00:52:00,320 --> 00:52:05,000 Speaker 2: midnight on The Bernie Frattle Show. After the pat Riley 953 00:52:05,239 --> 00:52:10,040 Speaker 2: dressing down of Jimmy Butler for trolling, has there been 954 00:52:10,040 --> 00:52:11,600 Speaker 2: any follow up to that whole ordeal. 955 00:52:13,320 --> 00:52:15,920 Speaker 7: I mean, we'll see what actually happens this off season. 956 00:52:16,640 --> 00:52:19,480 Speaker 7: As far as whether you know he's continuing to be 957 00:52:19,600 --> 00:52:23,080 Speaker 7: with the Heat or not. My hunch is pat Riley 958 00:52:23,400 --> 00:52:26,759 Speaker 7: can you know, call his players out because he is 959 00:52:26,880 --> 00:52:29,520 Speaker 7: very comfortable to his own skin. He's oh yeah, he's still, 960 00:52:29,680 --> 00:52:31,360 Speaker 7: you know, an old school kind of coach. But I 961 00:52:31,400 --> 00:52:33,799 Speaker 7: don't think it means that Jimmy's out of there. 962 00:52:34,280 --> 00:52:35,839 Speaker 2: I think that, well, they're not going to trade him. 963 00:52:35,880 --> 00:52:37,799 Speaker 2: But how did Jimmy Butler feel about the way pat 964 00:52:37,920 --> 00:52:38,680 Speaker 2: Riley talk to him. 965 00:52:40,440 --> 00:52:42,600 Speaker 7: I don't know this for a fact, but my hunch 966 00:52:42,760 --> 00:52:46,560 Speaker 7: is Jimmy Butler respects pat Riley. So it's the end 967 00:52:46,600 --> 00:52:48,480 Speaker 7: of that story. So I don't think that this is 968 00:52:48,560 --> 00:52:51,880 Speaker 7: going to be the beginning of their you know, divorce 969 00:52:52,280 --> 00:52:54,879 Speaker 7: or the beginning of the relationship being fractured. I think 970 00:52:54,960 --> 00:52:59,759 Speaker 7: that pat Riley just clearly conveyed where he stood, and 971 00:53:00,160 --> 00:53:03,240 Speaker 7: Jimmy Butler will probably can't help more respect it because 972 00:53:03,360 --> 00:53:06,120 Speaker 7: of pat Riley's pedigree and the fact that he was 973 00:53:06,200 --> 00:53:07,040 Speaker 7: so blunt about it. 974 00:53:08,200 --> 00:53:11,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, last one for me. It's tonight, Mark. I want 975 00:53:11,200 --> 00:53:14,719 Speaker 2: to revisit the Mark Jackson situation. I thought you articulated 976 00:53:15,800 --> 00:53:20,200 Speaker 2: his situation pretty well last week. When I was hosting 977 00:53:20,239 --> 00:53:22,160 Speaker 2: to Ben Maller Show Thursday night, I had a caller 978 00:53:22,320 --> 00:53:27,040 Speaker 2: that's convinced and You'll have to refresh my memory on this, 979 00:53:27,120 --> 00:53:29,600 Speaker 2: because I'm drawing a blank that apparently there was an 980 00:53:29,640 --> 00:53:32,799 Speaker 2: incident in twenty fourteen where Mark Jackson threatened to pull 981 00:53:32,840 --> 00:53:35,360 Speaker 2: his team off the floor. And I don't know the details. 982 00:53:35,440 --> 00:53:38,080 Speaker 2: I don't know the context. I don't even know the backstory. 983 00:53:38,080 --> 00:53:41,320 Speaker 2: I'm hoping you do. But this caller was pretty adamant 984 00:53:41,360 --> 00:53:44,440 Speaker 2: about the fact he believed that the NBA was holding 985 00:53:44,520 --> 00:53:47,440 Speaker 2: that against Mark Jackson and that quote he's been blackballed. 986 00:53:47,760 --> 00:53:49,920 Speaker 2: Your thoughts do you call that incident at all? 987 00:53:53,080 --> 00:53:54,960 Speaker 7: The only thing that I can think of, and this 988 00:53:55,160 --> 00:53:58,840 Speaker 7: wasn't just the Warriors, this is the Clippers. You have 989 00:53:58,920 --> 00:54:03,040 Speaker 7: to keep in mind twenty fourteen first round playoffs. This 990 00:54:03,239 --> 00:54:07,239 Speaker 7: is when the Donald Sterling racist tapes leaked and there 991 00:54:07,400 --> 00:54:10,520 Speaker 7: was talk from both ends about whether they would play 992 00:54:10,640 --> 00:54:15,200 Speaker 7: or not. So, yeah, that that might be what he's 993 00:54:15,280 --> 00:54:18,239 Speaker 7: referring to. But this idea that the NBA is blackballedom, No, 994 00:54:18,520 --> 00:54:23,960 Speaker 7: that the NBA doesn't get involved with teams firing or 995 00:54:24,400 --> 00:54:29,400 Speaker 7: firing coaches. Now they might, you know, put input to 996 00:54:29,680 --> 00:54:33,080 Speaker 7: teams and say, hey, they recommend someone, but they don't 997 00:54:33,080 --> 00:54:35,239 Speaker 7: want to go down that dangerous slope and pulling the 998 00:54:35,320 --> 00:54:38,359 Speaker 7: strings on how organizations do. So the reason why Mark 999 00:54:38,440 --> 00:54:40,800 Speaker 7: Jackson hasn't had a job has nothing to do with 1000 00:54:40,880 --> 00:54:43,600 Speaker 7: the NBA. Has everything to do with the fact that 1001 00:54:44,520 --> 00:54:47,160 Speaker 7: his time in Golden State did not end on a 1002 00:54:47,239 --> 00:54:50,080 Speaker 7: good note and had very little to do with his 1003 00:54:50,239 --> 00:54:53,279 Speaker 7: former NBA playing experience and his ex's and o's and 1004 00:54:53,360 --> 00:54:56,080 Speaker 7: the respect that he had with the players. Had everything 1005 00:54:56,160 --> 00:54:58,600 Speaker 7: to do with the fact that, you know, he was 1006 00:54:58,680 --> 00:55:03,320 Speaker 7: seen as a limited coach in terms of adjustments and 1007 00:55:03,600 --> 00:55:07,839 Speaker 7: be more creative with offensive sets, and just the way 1008 00:55:08,200 --> 00:55:11,320 Speaker 7: you know he treated people on his coaching staff and 1009 00:55:11,400 --> 00:55:14,560 Speaker 7: team staffers. I mean, players had sworn by him, and 1010 00:55:14,640 --> 00:55:17,480 Speaker 7: you may recall when the Warriors fired him, you know, 1011 00:55:17,640 --> 00:55:22,360 Speaker 7: Steph Curry and Draymond Green, in particular, were very vocal about, 1012 00:55:22,640 --> 00:55:25,880 Speaker 7: you know, feeling upset that he was let go. But 1013 00:55:26,160 --> 00:55:29,400 Speaker 7: these things don't have to be mutually exclusive. So I 1014 00:55:29,480 --> 00:55:32,600 Speaker 7: think it's telling that since then he hasn't gotten an 1015 00:55:32,719 --> 00:55:35,440 Speaker 7: NBA job or even that much interest. But it has 1016 00:55:35,520 --> 00:55:37,840 Speaker 7: nothing to do with the league imposing anything. 1017 00:55:38,320 --> 00:55:41,040 Speaker 2: Actually, I can't let you go without addressing this. We're 1018 00:55:41,239 --> 00:55:45,320 Speaker 2: exactly are the Lakers in their coaching search? And is 1019 00:55:45,400 --> 00:55:47,600 Speaker 2: it fair to assume this could be a minute because 1020 00:55:48,160 --> 00:55:50,600 Speaker 2: it feels like the Pickens are slim? Do you gold 1021 00:55:50,640 --> 00:55:51,920 Speaker 2: the assistant route? 1022 00:55:52,680 --> 00:55:52,799 Speaker 7: Right? 1023 00:55:52,920 --> 00:55:55,239 Speaker 2: Do you reach out to a Charles Lee or a 1024 00:55:55,320 --> 00:55:59,120 Speaker 2: Phil Handy or you know, I mean Botenholzer's gone. You're 1025 00:55:59,120 --> 00:56:01,960 Speaker 2: not going to get Tyler maybybe Terry Stotts. What do 1026 00:56:02,040 --> 00:56:03,920 Speaker 2: you do wor a JJ Reddick. Where do you think 1027 00:56:03,960 --> 00:56:04,520 Speaker 2: the Lakers go? 1028 00:56:05,280 --> 00:56:08,239 Speaker 7: Yeah, Well, to clarify here, they can't go Charles League 1029 00:56:08,239 --> 00:56:11,799 Speaker 7: because he's with Charlotte now. Phil Handy, no, because they 1030 00:56:11,920 --> 00:56:14,520 Speaker 7: fired the whole staff. So I don't think they had 1031 00:56:14,600 --> 00:56:18,280 Speaker 7: interest in Phil, even though he's a very respected assistant coach. 1032 00:56:20,000 --> 00:56:23,560 Speaker 7: I was told a few days ago last week that 1033 00:56:24,520 --> 00:56:27,320 Speaker 7: the feeling around the league and this isn't the Lakers. 1034 00:56:27,400 --> 00:56:30,080 Speaker 7: This is just people around the league talking that they 1035 00:56:30,200 --> 00:56:34,400 Speaker 7: thought Mike Boenholzer was the favorite candidate. Now that obviously changed. 1036 00:56:34,480 --> 00:56:37,760 Speaker 7: The Sun's hired him, you know, very quickly after firing 1037 00:56:37,920 --> 00:56:42,400 Speaker 7: Frank Vogel. But I was also told that the sense 1038 00:56:42,600 --> 00:56:46,279 Speaker 7: was there would be more clarity and momentum during the 1039 00:56:46,440 --> 00:56:49,080 Speaker 7: NBA Draft lottery because at that point they can talk 1040 00:56:49,160 --> 00:56:53,640 Speaker 7: with different coaching candidates, different you know, agents that represent them, 1041 00:56:54,000 --> 00:56:57,040 Speaker 7: et cetera. So I would expect there to be more progress, 1042 00:56:58,040 --> 00:57:00,640 Speaker 7: you know, during this week because you know, the NBA 1043 00:57:00,760 --> 00:57:04,000 Speaker 7: Draft combine in Chicago's are going to be taking place, 1044 00:57:04,560 --> 00:57:08,000 Speaker 7: and you know, a credit to the athletics Van you know, 1045 00:57:08,080 --> 00:57:11,400 Speaker 7: he was mentioning that Wolves's assistant coach Mike Mike and 1046 00:57:11,480 --> 00:57:16,680 Speaker 7: Noriri and Nuggets assistant coach David Adelman are you know, 1047 00:57:17,240 --> 00:57:20,360 Speaker 7: assistant coaches that are on the Lakers radar. But you know, 1048 00:57:20,440 --> 00:57:23,040 Speaker 7: I want to be surprised that Terry Stotts is on 1049 00:57:23,200 --> 00:57:26,240 Speaker 7: the radar. Two he was a coach that interviewed for 1050 00:57:26,440 --> 00:57:30,440 Speaker 7: the head coaching position two years ago. And you know, 1051 00:57:30,560 --> 00:57:32,920 Speaker 7: maybe Scott Brooks as well. You know, he was recently 1052 00:57:33,040 --> 00:57:36,040 Speaker 7: let go of Portland. He has former head coaching experience. 1053 00:57:36,240 --> 00:57:39,520 Speaker 7: But I think it's going to be interesting to see 1054 00:57:39,920 --> 00:57:43,800 Speaker 7: are the Lakers interested in those two cannass head coaching 1055 00:57:44,280 --> 00:57:47,960 Speaker 7: candidates or assistant coaching cans. I don't think that Stats 1056 00:57:48,040 --> 00:57:51,959 Speaker 7: or Brooks would voluntarily say, oh yeah, I'll be willing 1057 00:57:52,000 --> 00:57:53,960 Speaker 7: to be an assistant coach. I think they'd want to 1058 00:57:54,000 --> 00:57:57,480 Speaker 7: be head coaches. But if they do go with another 1059 00:57:57,560 --> 00:58:00,600 Speaker 7: assistant or you know, JJ Reddick, I want to be 1060 00:58:00,720 --> 00:58:05,080 Speaker 7: surprised if they try to convince Terry and or Scott 1061 00:58:06,160 --> 00:58:09,400 Speaker 7: to be part of whichever candidate's coaching staff that they 1062 00:58:10,080 --> 00:58:10,840 Speaker 7: wind up hiring. 1063 00:58:11,840 --> 00:58:14,680 Speaker 2: Didn't Terry Stotts turned down an assistant job back in 1064 00:58:14,760 --> 00:58:17,760 Speaker 2: twenty twenty two to Frank Vogel, and have they ever 1065 00:58:18,000 --> 00:58:20,720 Speaker 2: reconciled whatever happened that incident with Ady and Griffin. 1066 00:58:22,680 --> 00:58:25,840 Speaker 7: I'm not sure. I don't think that's accurate about turning 1067 00:58:25,920 --> 00:58:28,840 Speaker 7: down an assistant coaching job with Frank Vogel. But to 1068 00:58:28,960 --> 00:58:31,760 Speaker 7: the larger point about what you're mentioning about Adrian Griffin, 1069 00:58:32,600 --> 00:58:35,040 Speaker 7: that remains to be seen. But you know, I think 1070 00:58:35,120 --> 00:58:38,440 Speaker 7: that like these things that could be more person driven 1071 00:58:38,520 --> 00:58:42,880 Speaker 7: than philosophical driven about you know, how he feels about 1072 00:58:42,960 --> 00:58:46,320 Speaker 7: being an assistant coach. I mean, ironically, I remember running 1073 00:58:46,400 --> 00:58:49,800 Speaker 7: into him shortly before that incident happened, and he was, 1074 00:58:50,160 --> 00:58:52,760 Speaker 7: you know, speaking a lot of great things about how 1075 00:58:52,800 --> 00:58:54,680 Speaker 7: he loves it. He's came back into coaching, even though 1076 00:58:54,720 --> 00:58:58,000 Speaker 7: he's not the head coach, so I would expect he'd 1077 00:58:58,040 --> 00:59:00,560 Speaker 7: prefer to have the head seat. But you know, I 1078 00:59:00,640 --> 00:59:04,320 Speaker 7: could also see philosophically he would be okay with being 1079 00:59:04,320 --> 00:59:06,520 Speaker 7: an assistant coach as long as it's with the right person. 1080 00:59:07,080 --> 00:59:10,440 Speaker 2: Yeah, fair enough, Just for giggles, check that out. I 1081 00:59:10,600 --> 00:59:12,920 Speaker 2: had heard that Stoughts turned down that assistant job in 1082 00:59:13,000 --> 00:59:15,640 Speaker 2: twenty twenty two because he wanted to go back to Milwaukee, 1083 00:59:16,000 --> 00:59:18,360 Speaker 2: that he thought that was maybe the best steppingstone. Mark, 1084 00:59:18,400 --> 00:59:20,720 Speaker 2: great stuff as always, my friend. Enjoy your week ahead, 1085 00:59:20,760 --> 00:59:24,960 Speaker 2: Thanks so much, appreciate you as Mark Medina Medina magic 1086 00:59:25,360 --> 00:59:31,760 Speaker 2: are Fox Sports Radio NBA guru.

Rice 1100 01:00:17,680 --> 01:00:20,520 Speaker 2: is being investigated by police after he was accused of 1101 01:00:20,640 --> 01:00:25,280 Speaker 2: hating a photographer in Dallas at a club on Monday night. 1102 01:00:25,320 --> 01:00:29,280 Speaker 2: According to police documents, around two am and after hours 1103 01:00:29,360 --> 01:00:33,400 Speaker 2: party at a spot called Lit Kitchen Now. The photographer 1104 01:00:33,480 --> 01:00:36,960 Speaker 2: told the cops he left the nightclub, but then returned 1105 01:00:37,000 --> 01:00:39,800 Speaker 2: after we received a message from Rice in which Rice 1106 01:00:39,880 --> 01:00:43,880 Speaker 2: indicated he wanted to hire him. But when the photographer 1107 01:00:44,000 --> 01:00:46,560 Speaker 2: got back to the club, he says Rice handed him 1108 01:00:46,560 --> 01:00:49,440 Speaker 2: a phone to look at something, and that Rice then 1109 01:00:49,600 --> 01:00:51,720 Speaker 2: punched the man on the left side of the face. 1110 01:00:52,720 --> 01:00:55,920 Speaker 2: The police report indicated that the photographer had swelling on 1111 01:00:56,000 --> 01:00:58,840 Speaker 2: the jaws, complained to pain and went to a hospital. 1112 01:00:59,160 --> 01:01:02,480 Speaker 2: My hasn't been arrested, are charged yet, but Dallas police 1113 01:01:02,520 --> 01:01:06,640 Speaker 2: say the incident is under investigation. Rice is already dealing 1114 01:01:07,160 --> 01:01:10,040 Speaker 2: with all kinds of legal trouble, recently charged with eight 1115 01:01:10,080 --> 01:01:13,080 Speaker 2: felonies over his alleged role in a car crash that 1116 01:01:13,200 --> 01:01:16,600 Speaker 2: took place in March.

There was a 1123 01:01:38,520 --> 01:01:43,480 Speaker 2: scouting report that says, well, Rashi Rice, he is fast, 1124 01:01:43,600 --> 01:01:46,640 Speaker 2: he's got athletic ability, YadA YadA yah. But at least 1125 01:01:46,640 --> 01:01:48,760 Speaker 2: one team removed him from their draft board because of 1126 01:01:49,000 --> 01:01:52,640 Speaker 2: quote behavior issuals the quote he's talented but not a 1127 01:01:52,720 --> 01:01:56,760 Speaker 2: good dude.

Scenes in Pittsburgh. 1156 01:03:29,200 --> 01:03:33,200 Speaker 8: Here Paul Skeens his first MLB outing here, not a 1157 01:03:33,280 --> 01:03:35,320 Speaker 8: start for him. He didn't go the full innings, but 1158 01:03:35,440 --> 01:03:38,280 Speaker 8: he strikes. He strikes out seven, throwing over one hundred 1159 01:03:38,320 --> 01:03:40,800 Speaker 8: miles per hour and heat. However, the Cubs ended up 1160 01:03:40,920 --> 01:03:45,920 Speaker 8: drawing six straight six bases loaded walks in the fifth to. 1161 01:03:45,920 --> 01:03:46,440 Speaker 10: Take a lead. 1162 01:03:46,880 --> 01:03:49,880 Speaker 8: Pirates come back and they win that game ten to nine. 1163 01:03:50,640 --> 01:03:52,960 Speaker 8: Going over to the NHL, it looks like that the 1164 01:03:53,040 --> 01:03:56,640 Speaker 8: Carolina Hurricanes will live to fight again another day. They 1165 01:03:56,800 --> 01:03:59,920 Speaker 8: held on against the Rangers four to three, and they 1166 01:04:00,160 --> 01:04:03,600 Speaker 8: have avoided the sweep. Abs falt to Dallas Stars four 1167 01:04:03,680 --> 01:04:05,800 Speaker 8: to one. Tyler Sagein with the winning goal in that 1168 01:04:05,960 --> 01:04:09,920 Speaker 8: one NASCAR qualifying we got the good Year four hundred 1169 01:04:09,960 --> 01:04:13,480 Speaker 8: and Darlington coming up here on FS one today, Tyler 1170 01:04:13,560 --> 01:04:16,480 Speaker 8: Reddick taking the pole position there and the young phenom 1171 01:04:16,600 --> 01:04:19,360 Speaker 8: ty Gibbs coming in at fourth, and many think he 1172 01:04:19,480 --> 01:04:21,680 Speaker 8: might be coming up for a win anytime soon. 1173 01:04:21,880 --> 01:04:24,280 Speaker 2: Back to you, Bernie, you know the thing in that 1174 01:04:24,360 --> 01:04:27,680 Speaker 2: Atlanta game, Max Freed, the starter had a no hitter 1175 01:04:27,760 --> 01:04:30,680 Speaker 2: three seven, but he's throwing one hundred and nine pitches. 1176 01:04:30,760 --> 01:04:33,000 Speaker 2: In this day and age of analytics, they yanked him. 1177 01:04:33,560 --> 01:04:35,840 Speaker 2: That kind of stuff just makes my teeth itch. This 1178 01:04:35,920 --> 01:04:38,080 Speaker 2: young man could have etched his name in the history books. 1179 01:04:38,320 --> 01:04:44,640 Speaker 2: Look whatever, whatever, What do I know? So we talked 1180 01:04:44,720 --> 01:04:47,479 Speaker 2: with with Mark Medina a little bit about the coaching search, 1181 01:04:47,520 --> 01:04:49,640 Speaker 2: which I think will start to pick up steam the Lakers. 1182 01:04:51,000 --> 01:04:52,800 Speaker 2: I don't think they're in a big hurry. I'm told 1183 01:04:52,840 --> 01:04:56,800 Speaker 2: this could take as much as six weeks. But at 1184 01:04:56,920 --> 01:05:02,680 Speaker 2: one point, about a week ago, as many as seven 1185 01:05:03,880 --> 01:05:08,360 Speaker 2: coaching candidates and now they're starting to fall by the wayside. 1186 01:05:08,400 --> 01:05:12,720 Speaker 2: Now I don't know if JJ Reddick is still one 1187 01:05:12,760 --> 01:05:16,240 Speaker 2: of the candidates. I am told he is one of 1188 01:05:16,280 --> 01:05:20,160 Speaker 2: the four who will get an interview. I don't get 1189 01:05:20,160 --> 01:05:23,080 Speaker 2: to that in a minute. But this is interesting because 1190 01:05:24,360 --> 01:05:28,040 Speaker 2: you would assume you want to prioritize experience in the 1191 01:05:28,120 --> 01:05:32,160 Speaker 2: Lakers head coaching search because they truly believe they're a 1192 01:05:32,240 --> 01:05:36,640 Speaker 2: championship caliber team. They truly believe that they have designs 1193 01:05:36,680 --> 01:05:41,480 Speaker 2: and perhaps can win one more championship. Of course, you know, 1194 01:05:41,640 --> 01:05:43,760 Speaker 2: people of hell on Icewater. Good luck to both of you. 1195 01:05:44,400 --> 01:05:47,320 Speaker 2: I would say this, but even if you hire a 1196 01:05:47,440 --> 01:05:52,160 Speaker 2: coach with experience, does that guarantee success? Well you know 1197 01:05:52,600 --> 01:05:57,240 Speaker 2: the answer to that question, And one only needs to 1198 01:05:57,280 --> 01:06:00,600 Speaker 2: look at Steve Kerr. Before he became the four time 1199 01:06:00,720 --> 01:06:04,760 Speaker 2: NBA champion head coach for the Golden State Warriors, Steve 1200 01:06:04,840 --> 01:06:07,400 Speaker 2: Kerr had not only never served as a head coach, 1201 01:06:07,840 --> 01:06:11,120 Speaker 2: he'd never even been an assistant at any level. So 1202 01:06:12,120 --> 01:06:14,320 Speaker 2: all of a sudden, now you're seeing the name JJ 1203 01:06:14,520 --> 01:06:18,320 Speaker 2: Reddick being bandied about. Now, there have been opportunities in 1204 01:06:18,400 --> 01:06:21,680 Speaker 2: the past for JJ Reddick to become an assistant coach. 1205 01:06:21,760 --> 01:06:25,360 Speaker 2: Teams have previously reached out to Reddick, but he kind 1206 01:06:25,400 --> 01:06:27,680 Speaker 2: of likes his gig. He's an NBA analyst. He can 1207 01:06:27,720 --> 01:06:29,800 Speaker 2: come and go as he wants, He works his own schedule. 1208 01:06:29,840 --> 01:06:33,200 Speaker 2: There's no pressure to win, and I think Reddick's not 1209 01:06:33,320 --> 01:06:36,000 Speaker 2: the type of guy that's a plus one if you 1210 01:06:36,080 --> 01:06:39,720 Speaker 2: get my drift the way he carries himself. But there 1211 01:06:39,840 --> 01:06:43,200 Speaker 2: is one thing about Reddick that should I would think 1212 01:06:43,560 --> 01:06:47,280 Speaker 2: create a lot of curiosity. He has very high basketball IQ. 1213 01:06:48,160 --> 01:06:50,560 Speaker 2: He's going to be very savvy with the media, and 1214 01:06:51,120 --> 01:06:53,880 Speaker 2: I'm told he jaels quite well with players other players. 1215 01:06:53,920 --> 01:06:57,040 Speaker 2: And one appealing fact, we are told that Reddick has 1216 01:06:57,040 --> 01:07:00,160 Speaker 2: a very good relationship with Lebron James. Those two of 1217 01:07:00,920 --> 01:07:03,720 Speaker 2: you know, I don't know their best ease, but they 1218 01:07:03,840 --> 01:07:06,920 Speaker 2: hang out and I've even done a podcast together. But 1219 01:07:07,400 --> 01:07:11,040 Speaker 2: I would say that from what I hear, Lebron James 1220 01:07:11,120 --> 01:07:14,000 Speaker 2: has a lot of respect on JJ Redick and his 1221 01:07:14,200 --> 01:07:17,200 Speaker 2: general mind for the game and his brain for the game, 1222 01:07:17,280 --> 01:07:21,880 Speaker 2: and in terms of Reddick's thoughts and how to prosecute 1223 01:07:22,200 --> 01:07:25,680 Speaker 2: an offense and offensive concepts and things like that. If 1224 01:07:25,720 --> 01:07:28,520 Speaker 2: you hire JJ Reddick, you're gonna have to get coaches 1225 01:07:28,560 --> 01:07:30,840 Speaker 2: with experience around him. But I don't think you can 1226 01:07:31,680 --> 01:07:34,080 Speaker 2: rule it out now. A week and a half ago, 1227 01:07:34,480 --> 01:07:37,640 Speaker 2: Tyron lou was mentioned in that mix. I think that 1228 01:07:38,320 --> 01:07:42,160 Speaker 2: ship has pretty much just sail. Not to dot my mind, 1229 01:07:42,200 --> 01:07:46,800 Speaker 2: the Clippers are going to, you know, wrap him up. 1230 01:07:47,240 --> 01:07:51,880 Speaker 2: Charles Lee, a Boston Celtics assistant coach. I think he's 1231 01:07:51,920 --> 01:07:55,680 Speaker 2: been crossed off the list. Mike Budenholzer was there about 1232 01:07:55,680 --> 01:08:00,200 Speaker 2: a week ago. He's been crossed off the list. I 1233 01:08:00,240 --> 01:08:05,160 Speaker 2: always wondered if Mike Budenholzer was the scapegoat when he 1234 01:08:05,320 --> 01:08:07,680 Speaker 2: got fired a couple of years ago. I know Jannis 1235 01:08:07,760 --> 01:08:10,480 Speaker 2: wanted Ady and Griffin got his wish. It blew up 1236 01:08:10,520 --> 01:08:13,360 Speaker 2: in the face of the organization. Actually, Griffin was like 1237 01:08:13,440 --> 01:08:16,320 Speaker 2: thirty and thirteen before Doc Rivers took over. I guess 1238 01:08:16,320 --> 01:08:20,840 Speaker 2: I'll never really know what happened there. Budenholzer, it was 1239 01:08:20,960 --> 01:08:23,559 Speaker 2: presumed he was going to get an opportunity with another team, 1240 01:08:23,600 --> 01:08:26,439 Speaker 2: and he has. He's landing quite nicely in Phoenix. You 1241 01:08:26,560 --> 01:08:29,560 Speaker 2: scratch him off the dance card. That leadst potentially Kenny Atkinson, 1242 01:08:30,160 --> 01:08:34,160 Speaker 2: all right, He's a familiar name among coaching candidates. It's 1243 01:08:34,240 --> 01:08:39,880 Speaker 2: my understanding the Lakers targeted Kenny Atkinson. I think a 1244 01:08:39,960 --> 01:08:43,080 Speaker 2: couple of years ago he was allegedly poised to take 1245 01:08:43,160 --> 01:08:47,200 Speaker 2: over for the Charlotte Hornets. But that move meant relocating 1246 01:08:47,280 --> 01:08:50,479 Speaker 2: his family or relocating him away from his family for 1247 01:08:50,520 --> 01:08:52,800 Speaker 2: a long time. I guess it never really materialized. The 1248 01:08:52,800 --> 01:08:58,240 Speaker 2: bottom line is what would Kenny Atkinson bring to the Lakers. Well, 1249 01:08:59,560 --> 01:09:03,439 Speaker 2: you know, at his time in Brooklyn, Kenny Atkinson was 1250 01:09:03,560 --> 01:09:06,320 Speaker 2: very highly regarded for a guy who was very well 1251 01:09:06,400 --> 01:09:09,320 Speaker 2: devoted to player development. He took over a Nets team 1252 01:09:09,800 --> 01:09:12,800 Speaker 2: and a roster that was complete, you know, completely in 1253 01:09:12,840 --> 01:09:16,760 Speaker 2: the doldrums. And give Kenny Atkinson credit back in twenty 1254 01:09:16,800 --> 01:09:20,320 Speaker 2: sixteen twenty seventeen, he built the or helped, you know, 1255 01:09:20,439 --> 01:09:23,280 Speaker 2: rebuild the Brooklyn Nets from a twenty win team to 1256 01:09:23,360 --> 01:09:26,000 Speaker 2: a forty two year win team. A couple years later, 1257 01:09:26,400 --> 01:09:29,040 Speaker 2: then he was pushed out the door, so Kyie Irving 1258 01:09:29,040 --> 01:09:32,160 Speaker 2: and Kevin Durant could be coached by Steve Nash. And 1259 01:09:32,479 --> 01:09:36,960 Speaker 2: you know, Atkinson's not perfect, but none of these coaches are, 1260 01:09:37,280 --> 01:09:40,920 Speaker 2: and he might be a good addition to the Lakers. 1261 01:09:41,000 --> 01:09:44,320 Speaker 2: I don't know, we're just spitballing here. As you heard 1262 01:09:44,400 --> 01:09:47,000 Speaker 2: Mark say Phil Handy, he was part of the staff 1263 01:09:47,040 --> 01:09:52,200 Speaker 2: that was broomed. But look, you know, I would say 1264 01:09:53,080 --> 01:09:57,040 Speaker 2: Phil Handy is a guy that could have been a 1265 01:09:57,160 --> 01:10:01,519 Speaker 2: coaching candidate. All right. There are rumors, and I'm not 1266 01:10:01,760 --> 01:10:04,560 Speaker 2: plugged in here at all, but there are rumors that 1267 01:10:06,000 --> 01:10:08,719 Speaker 2: among the ranks, many players in the locker room wanted 1268 01:10:09,240 --> 01:10:11,519 Speaker 2: Handy to replace Darvin Ham as head coach earlier in 1269 01:10:11,560 --> 01:10:15,479 Speaker 2: the season. Ownership kay botch that, but you know, now 1270 01:10:15,520 --> 01:10:19,280 Speaker 2: that the whole staff's been roomed, do you maybe consider 1271 01:10:19,320 --> 01:10:22,640 Speaker 2: bringing him back if the Lakers are determined to keep 1272 01:10:22,760 --> 01:10:27,040 Speaker 2: Lebron and I believe they certainly will. Lebron actually does 1273 01:10:27,160 --> 01:10:31,240 Speaker 2: have a relationship with Handy back to the championship, you know, 1274 01:10:31,320 --> 01:10:34,439 Speaker 2: team with the Cleveland Cavaliers. Plus Handy's this is his 1275 01:10:34,760 --> 01:10:36,960 Speaker 2: second go round with the Lakers. He was there ten 1276 01:10:37,080 --> 01:10:39,320 Speaker 2: years ago, and before he joined the club as an 1277 01:10:39,320 --> 01:10:41,880 Speaker 2: assistant four or five years ago, so he's earned the 1278 01:10:41,920 --> 01:10:44,920 Speaker 2: opportunity to be a head coach, and the word is 1279 01:10:45,000 --> 01:10:47,840 Speaker 2: he would have the support of the locker room. But again, 1280 01:10:47,960 --> 01:10:50,679 Speaker 2: they've broomed the whole staff. So I think the Lakers 1281 01:10:50,720 --> 01:10:52,519 Speaker 2: are all about trying to sell the press conference, and 1282 01:10:52,880 --> 01:10:55,840 Speaker 2: that might be a difficult press conference to sell given 1283 01:10:56,160 --> 01:10:59,800 Speaker 2: the situation, which leads us back to Terry Stotts to 1284 01:11:00,000 --> 01:11:03,320 Speaker 2: Marry Stats. Was fired by the Portland Trail Blazers three 1285 01:11:03,360 --> 01:11:05,559 Speaker 2: years ago after they got knocked out in the first round, 1286 01:11:06,280 --> 01:11:09,000 Speaker 2: and he, you know, got back to a short lived 1287 01:11:09,040 --> 01:11:12,720 Speaker 2: stay with the Milwaukee Bucks as an assistant. I don't 1288 01:11:12,720 --> 01:11:14,760 Speaker 2: know what the incident was with Adrian Griffin, but he 1289 01:11:15,720 --> 01:11:19,160 Speaker 2: I think he quit him before the season started. I 1290 01:11:19,280 --> 01:11:21,040 Speaker 2: am told by someone I trust, but I also trust 1291 01:11:21,080 --> 01:11:24,280 Speaker 2: Mark Medina. But you know, I'm told by someone I 1292 01:11:24,360 --> 01:11:28,040 Speaker 2: trust that Stotts was on the radar when the Lakers 1293 01:11:28,080 --> 01:11:30,040 Speaker 2: were looking for a coach back in twenty twenty two, 1294 01:11:31,080 --> 01:11:33,200 Speaker 2: but they only wanted him as an assistant to Frank Vogel. 1295 01:11:33,240 --> 01:11:35,559 Speaker 2: He turned it down, and I think he was hopeful 1296 01:11:35,600 --> 01:11:38,240 Speaker 2: that that return to Milwaukee would give him a springboard 1297 01:11:38,280 --> 01:11:40,920 Speaker 2: to revitalize his career. But obviously that didn't work out 1298 01:11:41,000 --> 01:11:44,559 Speaker 2: in Milwaukee. But if you're the Lakers and you want 1299 01:11:44,600 --> 01:11:50,400 Speaker 2: to coach who has a resume and has plenty of 1300 01:11:51,120 --> 01:11:55,760 Speaker 2: you know, demonstrated ability to work with star players, well 1301 01:11:55,960 --> 01:12:00,000 Speaker 2: that's Terry Stats and I'm told he's very well liked 1302 01:12:00,200 --> 01:12:03,320 Speaker 2: by players, which would be very beneficial when you consider 1303 01:12:03,479 --> 01:12:05,880 Speaker 2: the issues that the Lakers allegedly had with Darvin Ham 1304 01:12:06,040 --> 01:12:10,760 Speaker 2: this season, and you know, people complained about Darvin Ham 1305 01:12:11,160 --> 01:12:14,840 Speaker 2: and his rotations and his offense, and the belief is 1306 01:12:14,960 --> 01:12:18,200 Speaker 2: that Terry Stotts would be an improvement over what LA 1307 01:12:18,360 --> 01:12:23,840 Speaker 2: had under Darvin Ham. Although can he really work magic 1308 01:12:23,920 --> 01:12:29,000 Speaker 2: with the same roster? So those were the seven suspects. 1309 01:12:29,600 --> 01:12:33,280 Speaker 2: Now we're down to the four prospects. I am told 1310 01:12:33,680 --> 01:12:38,280 Speaker 2: that the Lakers have narrowed their search to four names 1311 01:12:38,439 --> 01:12:42,160 Speaker 2: that are all expected to interview. Coming up, I will 1312 01:12:42,200 --> 01:12:46,479 Speaker 2: share with you what those names are.

Here in a Las Vegas, taking up 1329 01:13:37,040 --> 01:13:42,519 Speaker 2: to three am Pacific six am Eastern in about an 1330 01:13:42,720 --> 01:13:47,759 Speaker 2: hour and eleven minutes. Of course, the dance sensation sweep 1331 01:13:47,800 --> 01:13:50,280 Speaker 2: in the nation. What kind of brand new fool of you? 1332 01:13:50,439 --> 01:13:52,000 Speaker 2: Followed by what my name? And boy do I have 1333 01:13:52,040 --> 01:13:53,960 Speaker 2: a doozy tonight? The one I've got tonight? And the 1334 01:13:54,000 --> 01:13:58,360 Speaker 2: brand new fool is by far the most unique one 1335 01:13:58,439 --> 01:14:01,599 Speaker 2: I think I've ever done. All right, Lakers are still 1336 01:14:02,240 --> 01:14:06,400 Speaker 2: obviously looking to replace their recently fired head coach, Darvin Ham, 1337 01:14:07,479 --> 01:14:10,040 Speaker 2: and it's leaking out now. I am certainly not an 1338 01:14:10,080 --> 01:14:12,160 Speaker 2: insider on this, but it's been leaking out. There are 1339 01:14:12,280 --> 01:14:18,000 Speaker 2: four major candidates that the Lakers are targeting, Kenny Atkinson, 1340 01:14:18,800 --> 01:14:24,720 Speaker 2: JJ Reddick, David Edelman, and James Barrego. Those are the 1341 01:14:24,880 --> 01:14:28,960 Speaker 2: four that I believe will be invited to interview for 1342 01:14:29,600 --> 01:14:33,280 Speaker 2: the coach opening, which this would be a little if 1343 01:14:33,280 --> 01:14:35,400 Speaker 2: you're scoring at home, and I hope you are. This 1344 01:14:35,600 --> 01:14:39,400 Speaker 2: is Lebron's fourth coach now in a short Laker era, 1345 01:14:40,120 --> 01:14:42,479 Speaker 2: and it will end up being the seventh coach since 1346 01:14:42,600 --> 01:14:51,200 Speaker 2: the inimitable Phil Jackson retired. Now Los Angeles, the Lakers 1347 01:14:51,240 --> 01:14:56,040 Speaker 2: are heading into this upcoming season with I think a 1348 01:14:56,120 --> 01:14:59,200 Speaker 2: hell of a lot of uncertainty, a lot of questions, clearly, 1349 01:14:59,560 --> 01:15:03,000 Speaker 2: I mean after they hired after the twenty one twenty 1350 01:15:03,000 --> 01:15:05,840 Speaker 2: two season, they fired Frank Boge, excuse me, then they 1351 01:15:05,960 --> 01:15:08,560 Speaker 2: hired Darvin Ham. He gets to the conference finals, and 1352 01:15:08,640 --> 01:15:12,440 Speaker 2: then all of a sudden, there's allegedly all these disastrous situations, 1353 01:15:13,040 --> 01:15:16,200 Speaker 2: and you know Lebron James is laying in the wings 1354 01:15:16,280 --> 01:15:19,680 Speaker 2: and June twenty ninth he can opt out. She know 1355 01:15:19,760 --> 01:15:24,280 Speaker 2: he's not gonna do all this dramas so stupid. So 1356 01:15:25,439 --> 01:15:27,960 Speaker 2: rather than speculate, I what Lebron's gonna do, or if 1357 01:15:27,960 --> 01:15:30,720 Speaker 2: they're gonna draft Bronni or who's gonna do what and where, 1358 01:15:31,439 --> 01:15:35,320 Speaker 2: or whether they're gonna eat dinner at Clifton's cafeteria, let's 1359 01:15:35,320 --> 01:15:38,240 Speaker 2: focus on the here and now. The Lakers have four 1360 01:15:38,320 --> 01:15:41,599 Speaker 2: head coaching candidates they've circled the wagons on at least 1361 01:15:41,640 --> 01:15:44,960 Speaker 2: to start to kick the tires now, but only two 1362 01:15:45,040 --> 01:15:48,360 Speaker 2: of them have previous head coaching experience, Kenny Atkinson and 1363 01:15:48,680 --> 01:15:52,919 Speaker 2: James Barrego. Right I mentioned about ten minutes ago. Atkinson 1364 01:15:52,960 --> 01:15:55,599 Speaker 2: I thought did a very serviceable job at the Brooklyn Nets, 1365 01:15:56,200 --> 01:15:57,960 Speaker 2: getting him from a twenty win team to a forty 1366 01:15:58,000 --> 01:15:59,840 Speaker 2: two win team, and then he signed Kevin Durant and 1367 01:16:00,240 --> 01:16:04,920 Speaker 2: Irving and then let the circus begin. He was eighty 1368 01:16:05,000 --> 01:16:08,000 Speaker 2: games under five hundred with four seasons with Brooklyn, but 1369 01:16:08,120 --> 01:16:11,240 Speaker 2: no one would have won with that team, complete dumpster fire. 1370 01:16:11,880 --> 01:16:16,599 Speaker 2: And then Atkinson was kicked out of Brooklyn, I think unfairly, 1371 01:16:17,360 --> 01:16:21,400 Speaker 2: he was named an assistant coach for the Golden State Warriors. Now, 1372 01:16:22,200 --> 01:16:26,400 Speaker 2: if you're not familiar with James Barrego, James Bargo was 1373 01:16:26,479 --> 01:16:30,120 Speaker 2: the head coach of the Charlotte Hornets from twenty eighteen 1374 01:16:30,320 --> 01:16:34,240 Speaker 2: to twenty twenty two, and then, by the way, I 1375 01:16:34,280 --> 01:16:39,240 Speaker 2: believe he's also been an assistant under Greg Popovich in 1376 01:16:40,040 --> 01:16:44,160 Speaker 2: San Antonio. But he was forced out of Charlotte two 1377 01:16:44,200 --> 01:16:46,360 Speaker 2: years ago. Why well, he was one thirty eight and 1378 01:16:46,439 --> 01:16:49,479 Speaker 2: one sixty three. You know, they talk about the NFL 1379 01:16:49,560 --> 01:16:51,439 Speaker 2: being not for long. The NBA is not for long. 1380 01:16:51,479 --> 01:16:53,599 Speaker 2: I mean, look, look again, look what's happened in Phoenix. 1381 01:16:54,160 --> 01:16:58,320 Speaker 2: They're on their third coach in thirty years, and what 1382 01:16:58,439 --> 01:17:03,639 Speaker 2: do you all right, don't get me started. The third choice, 1383 01:17:03,960 --> 01:17:09,519 Speaker 2: David Adelman, perhaps might be the most intriguing. He's been 1384 01:17:09,560 --> 01:17:14,040 Speaker 2: a top assistant in Denver since twenty seventeen. He is 1385 01:17:14,160 --> 01:17:19,479 Speaker 2: considered a top candidate, and he has you know, subed 1386 01:17:19,520 --> 01:17:22,640 Speaker 2: for Mike Malone during the regular season last year. And 1387 01:17:22,960 --> 01:17:29,519 Speaker 2: it would be hard to see him, though, being a 1388 01:17:29,640 --> 01:17:33,559 Speaker 2: Lakers headman, because they're going to be They're probably gonna 1389 01:17:33,560 --> 01:17:34,680 Speaker 2: try to get him on the cheap, and I don't 1390 01:17:34,680 --> 01:17:36,880 Speaker 2: think he'd go for that. There'd be salary issues, okay, 1391 01:17:38,040 --> 01:17:39,880 Speaker 2: if you're gonna get a guy like David Adelmant. But 1392 01:17:39,920 --> 01:17:41,800 Speaker 2: I'll tell you what he would bring. He would bring 1393 01:17:41,880 --> 01:17:45,519 Speaker 2: a culture perhaps maybe that Denver has employed that the 1394 01:17:45,600 --> 01:17:50,360 Speaker 2: Lakers could could maybe use right for obvious reasons, all right, 1395 01:17:51,080 --> 01:17:52,800 Speaker 2: the wild card in the room, and just for the 1396 01:17:52,960 --> 01:17:54,479 Speaker 2: fear of it all. This is the one I want 1397 01:17:54,520 --> 01:17:58,680 Speaker 2: to see. JJ Reddick may have no previous experience in 1398 01:17:58,760 --> 01:18:01,080 Speaker 2: the NBA. Now he did play in the league for 1399 01:18:01,160 --> 01:18:05,320 Speaker 2: fifteen years, head coaching experience, excuse me, average twelve points 1400 01:18:05,360 --> 01:18:10,200 Speaker 2: a game, pretty good shooter, better than average, and he's 1401 01:18:10,280 --> 01:18:16,559 Speaker 2: been a really very good, I think, outspoken analysis analyst 1402 01:18:16,640 --> 01:18:20,120 Speaker 2: on ESPN and even has a podcast called The Old 1403 01:18:20,200 --> 01:18:25,639 Speaker 2: Man in the Three. And I think JJ Reddick would 1404 01:18:25,640 --> 01:18:28,599 Speaker 2: be crazy to turn it down. I think it'd be fabulous, 1405 01:18:29,320 --> 01:18:31,800 Speaker 2: and the Lakers need to nail this coaching higher. But 1406 01:18:31,880 --> 01:18:34,200 Speaker 2: there's just no sure thing out there. There is just 1407 01:18:34,400 --> 01:18:37,880 Speaker 2: no sure thing out there. And I mentioned earlier that 1408 01:18:38,320 --> 01:18:40,559 Speaker 2: he may not have experience, but then again, neither did 1409 01:18:40,600 --> 01:18:43,439 Speaker 2: Steve Kerr when he got hired by the Golden State Warriors. 1410 01:18:43,520 --> 01:18:46,840 Speaker 2: So I don't know. Lakers fans be very concerned, be 1411 01:18:47,040 --> 01:18:50,719 Speaker 2: very worried because you don't know what's going to happen 1412 01:18:51,560 --> 01:18:55,320 Speaker 2: coming up. We don't talk hockey a lot, but did 1413 01:18:55,880 --> 01:18:58,920 Speaker 2: ESPN and the New York Rangers and the Hurricanes have 1414 01:18:59,080 --> 01:19:02,000 Speaker 2: a Heidi moment?

But let me start this way. Uh, Ian, 1432 01:20:10,640 --> 01:20:13,639 Speaker 2: you're a big time sports fan. What's your favorite team? 1433 01:20:14,439 --> 01:20:16,160 Speaker 10: My favorite team is the New York Jets. 1434 01:20:16,360 --> 01:20:18,680 Speaker 2: New York Jets. And you grew up there or just 1435 01:20:19,280 --> 01:20:20,799 Speaker 2: what what led to that affection? 1436 01:20:21,439 --> 01:20:23,200 Speaker 10: Yeah, I'm originally from Brooklyn. 1437 01:20:24,080 --> 01:20:26,600 Speaker 2: Oh very nice. Have you been able to find a 1438 01:20:26,640 --> 01:20:28,880 Speaker 2: good egg cream in Los Angeles? Uh? 1439 01:20:29,080 --> 01:20:32,000 Speaker 10: You know, I actually this kind of embarrassing to have met. 1440 01:20:32,040 --> 01:20:33,599 Speaker 10: I actually really don't like eggs. 1441 01:20:34,479 --> 01:20:37,439 Speaker 2: So no, you know a cream is it is the 1442 01:20:37,640 --> 01:20:40,120 Speaker 2: just the Brooklyn staple, the Seltzer and the chocolate. You 1443 01:20:40,160 --> 01:20:42,439 Speaker 2: know what I'm talking about, right, It's like it's like 1444 01:20:42,479 --> 01:20:43,240 Speaker 2: a chocolate shake. 1445 01:20:43,400 --> 01:20:46,360 Speaker 10: Oh yeah, okay, no, but no they say, no one. 1446 01:20:46,280 --> 01:20:49,000 Speaker 2: Knows how to make them out here. But okay, let's 1447 01:20:49,080 --> 01:20:51,559 Speaker 2: let's move past that. Who is like when the Jets 1448 01:20:51,600 --> 01:20:54,439 Speaker 2: are give me the one team. If the Jets are 1449 01:20:54,520 --> 01:20:57,679 Speaker 2: playing you, you're not gonna miss that game the Patriots. Okay, 1450 01:20:57,720 --> 01:21:01,200 Speaker 2: so the Jets and Patriots. So let's say the Jets 1451 01:21:01,360 --> 01:21:03,920 Speaker 2: are playing the Patriots and all of a sudden, the 1452 01:21:04,000 --> 01:21:06,920 Speaker 2: Jets have finally got it together here and they're marching 1453 01:21:07,000 --> 01:21:10,120 Speaker 2: toward the playoffs and they're trailing by a field goal, 1454 01:21:10,880 --> 01:21:13,760 Speaker 2: and there's thirty seconds to go in the game or 1455 01:21:13,800 --> 01:21:15,479 Speaker 2: a minute to go in the game, and you're watching it. 1456 01:21:15,520 --> 01:21:18,920 Speaker 2: All of a sudden, for whatever reason, the broadcast cuts 1457 01:21:18,960 --> 01:21:22,920 Speaker 2: away to something else. What's going on in your head? 1458 01:21:23,720 --> 01:21:25,880 Speaker 10: Yeah, I'd be passed it better be better be something 1459 01:21:26,120 --> 01:21:27,080 Speaker 10: pretty damn important. 1460 01:21:29,080 --> 01:21:30,920 Speaker 2: What if it wasn't important? What if it was just 1461 01:21:30,960 --> 01:21:31,759 Speaker 2: like another show? 1462 01:21:32,600 --> 01:21:38,559 Speaker 10: Yeah, uh yeah, I'd take to social media or something. 1463 01:21:38,600 --> 01:21:40,920 Speaker 2: I mean, you go, you would. You wouldn't take it, dude. Okay, 1464 01:21:41,000 --> 01:21:44,200 Speaker 2: So hold that thought. Jets Patriots. You're all fired up, 1465 01:21:45,479 --> 01:21:48,080 Speaker 2: ready to see the Jets finally make some noise, get 1466 01:21:48,080 --> 01:21:51,040 Speaker 2: to the playoffs, and the rugs pulled out right from 1467 01:21:51,120 --> 01:21:53,000 Speaker 2: under your feet and you are left wondering, which is 1468 01:21:53,040 --> 01:21:56,880 Speaker 2: a terrible feeling for human beings right. We don't like uncertainty. 1469 01:21:57,600 --> 01:21:59,280 Speaker 2: We can deal with good news. We will deal with 1470 01:21:59,360 --> 01:22:01,519 Speaker 2: bad news, but no one likes uncertainty. And you're under 1471 01:22:01,560 --> 01:22:04,280 Speaker 2: what the hell happened? I paid my cable bill. I 1472 01:22:04,360 --> 01:22:06,760 Speaker 2: paid the bill, all right? So Mark Ramsey, I know 1473 01:22:06,800 --> 01:22:09,920 Speaker 2: you're a big time Chicago Bears fan, right, yes, yes, yes, 1474 01:22:10,280 --> 01:22:14,280 Speaker 2: And when the Bears are playing fill in the blank. 1475 01:22:14,479 --> 01:22:16,559 Speaker 11: You're not in a green Bay Green Bay. 1476 01:22:16,920 --> 01:22:19,759 Speaker 2: That's an obvious one. So let's say all of a sudden, 1477 01:22:20,120 --> 01:22:24,639 Speaker 2: Caleb Williams and Bears got it going in Green Bay. 1478 01:22:24,880 --> 01:22:29,719 Speaker 2: Now Blambell Field, it's December for one of these maybe 1479 01:22:29,760 --> 01:22:31,640 Speaker 2: they go to the playoffs inners a minute ago in 1480 01:22:31,680 --> 01:22:34,439 Speaker 2: the game and they cut away to leave it to Beaver. 1481 01:22:35,080 --> 01:22:35,800 Speaker 2: What are you thinking? 1482 01:22:37,040 --> 01:22:39,000 Speaker 11: I'm thinking, who messed up? 1483 01:22:39,160 --> 01:22:39,880 Speaker 10: I've got to know? 1484 01:22:40,840 --> 01:22:43,080 Speaker 2: Oh, nicely done. That's an old Howard Coastell quote. 1485 01:22:43,160 --> 01:22:43,880 Speaker 7: Rank you so much? 1486 01:22:44,439 --> 01:22:45,799 Speaker 2: Yes? Whose goofed? 1487 01:22:46,000 --> 01:22:46,280 Speaker 3: Please? 1488 01:22:46,320 --> 01:22:48,320 Speaker 11: I've got to know, please chip your waitress. 1489 01:22:49,840 --> 01:22:52,280 Speaker 12: I know about that because I'm in the age range 1490 01:22:52,360 --> 01:22:54,960 Speaker 12: or I know that happened to my dad, and I 1491 01:22:55,160 --> 01:23:00,879 Speaker 12: just know what happened because of that TV station switching 1492 01:23:00,960 --> 01:23:04,439 Speaker 12: to something that was at the time a very very 1493 01:23:05,000 --> 01:23:08,920 Speaker 12: popular show, and somebody hit the button because it was 1494 01:23:09,080 --> 01:23:12,200 Speaker 12: time for that particular show to come on, and someone 1495 01:23:12,800 --> 01:23:16,320 Speaker 12: cut away from the game because their priority was I 1496 01:23:16,400 --> 01:23:19,040 Speaker 12: got to put this show on. I'm not gonna worry 1497 01:23:19,040 --> 01:23:21,520 Speaker 12: about this game because whatever. 1498 01:23:22,400 --> 01:23:25,519 Speaker 2: Well coming up, I'm going to tell that story in detail. 1499 01:23:25,840 --> 01:23:30,080 Speaker 2: But why are we even talking about this? Look, nobody's perfect. 1500 01:23:30,439 --> 01:23:32,840 Speaker 2: But he was not. Sindcast the first stone. But esp 1501 01:23:32,960 --> 01:23:36,040 Speaker 2: had made a major error during its telecast Game two 1502 01:23:36,280 --> 01:23:39,200 Speaker 2: Monday night between the Carolina Hurricanes and the New York Rangers. 1503 01:23:39,720 --> 01:23:43,080 Speaker 2: The game is tied in the filamental regulation. The network 1504 01:23:43,200 --> 01:23:47,040 Speaker 2: accidentally cut to Game one between the Colorado Avalanche and 1505 01:23:47,160 --> 01:23:51,240 Speaker 2: the Dallas Stars. It wasn't good three to three. They're 1506 01:23:51,280 --> 01:23:53,080 Speaker 2: battling in the final minute. All of a sudden, the 1507 01:23:53,320 --> 01:23:57,120 Speaker 2: ESPN broadcast goes dark. Now the Rangers, they at that 1508 01:23:57,200 --> 01:24:00,840 Speaker 2: point had led the Eastern Conference semifinal series one game 1509 01:24:00,920 --> 01:24:04,519 Speaker 2: to one, game to nothing. They're on a power play 1510 01:24:05,680 --> 01:24:08,559 Speaker 2: and they're about to set up their attack. There's fifty 1511 01:24:08,600 --> 01:24:11,800 Speaker 2: seconds to go in the game in regulation when the 1512 01:24:11,920 --> 01:24:16,479 Speaker 2: broncams booth accidentally cuts to the pregame scenes in Dallas. 1513 01:24:17,520 --> 01:24:21,559 Speaker 2: Now the Dallas Stars in the Colorado Avalanche were about 1514 01:24:21,640 --> 01:24:25,240 Speaker 2: to begin Game one of their series in Dallas at 1515 01:24:25,240 --> 01:24:28,880 Speaker 2: American Airline Center, but the boat the game was supposed 1516 01:24:28,920 --> 01:24:33,120 Speaker 2: to be apparently televised on ESPN U not ESPN until 1517 01:24:33,200 --> 01:24:39,840 Speaker 2: the Rangers Hurricanes game came to an end, and I 1518 01:24:39,920 --> 01:24:42,320 Speaker 2: guess the network stayed on the Stars Rangers broadcast for 1519 01:24:42,400 --> 01:24:48,720 Speaker 2: about twenty seconds before they caught themselves and went back 1520 01:24:48,760 --> 01:24:52,200 Speaker 2: to Madison Square Garden. Fortunately, no one missed any goals, well, 1521 01:24:52,280 --> 01:24:55,680 Speaker 2: nobody missed any action, nobody missed anything, and then that 1522 01:24:55,800 --> 01:24:59,120 Speaker 2: game actually ended up going overtime. But those twenty seconds 1523 01:24:59,760 --> 01:25:02,600 Speaker 2: all way that were cut away from the Rangers Hurricanes 1524 01:25:02,680 --> 01:25:06,320 Speaker 2: game felt like an eternity to all the New York 1525 01:25:06,360 --> 01:25:10,840 Speaker 2: fans in Carolina fans that were watching. Social media completely 1526 01:25:11,040 --> 01:25:15,240 Speaker 2: blew up. Like Ian said, I mean really during a 1527 01:25:15,320 --> 01:25:17,920 Speaker 2: powerplay with a minute left, blah blah blah. People were 1528 01:25:17,960 --> 01:25:22,280 Speaker 2: going crazy. These are just you know, no name people 1529 01:25:22,360 --> 01:25:25,240 Speaker 2: on Twitter. Did ESPN just switch away from a Rangers 1530 01:25:25,280 --> 01:25:26,920 Speaker 2: game or a power play in the final minute of 1531 01:25:26,960 --> 01:25:29,640 Speaker 2: a tie game? And these are all caps. These are 1532 01:25:29,680 --> 01:25:33,599 Speaker 2: all in caps with plenty of exclamation points. I almost 1533 01:25:33,720 --> 01:25:37,000 Speaker 2: just lost it. ESPN now changing from the Rangers game, 1534 01:25:37,439 --> 01:25:39,880 Speaker 2: on and on on on real ESPN cutting away from 1535 01:25:39,920 --> 01:25:43,439 Speaker 2: the final minute of a Tide game. And then here 1536 01:25:43,520 --> 01:25:46,760 Speaker 2: it came. A tweeter by the name of John J. 1537 01:25:46,840 --> 01:25:52,200 Speaker 2: Streemsky said, ESPN almost pulled a Heidi bowl at the 1538 01:25:52,479 --> 01:25:57,120 Speaker 2: end of the Rangers game. Get it together, what's the 1539 01:25:57,200 --> 01:26:01,160 Speaker 2: Hidi Ball. I'm gonna tell you you're gonna want to 1540 01:26:01,200 --> 01:26:04,880 Speaker 2: hear this story. Many of you already know it, most 1541 01:26:05,000 --> 01:26:09,160 Speaker 2: have probably forgotten the details, but anyway, it slice it. 1542 01:26:09,320 --> 01:26:12,200 Speaker 2: Oh my goodness, it was a beauty. It will never 1543 01:26:12,280 --> 01:26:16,880 Speaker 2: be lived down in the infamy of broadcast tellision television, 1544 01:26:17,160 --> 01:26:21,720 Speaker 2: particularly sports television. I'm gonna share the details. Coming up. 1545 01:26:22,479 --> 01:26:25,479 Speaker 2: Grab a beer, get comfortable in your chair. You're gonna 1546 01:26:25,560 --> 01:26:28,559 Speaker 2: like this story. I'm Bernie Fraddler comes to you live 1547 01:26:28,640 --> 01:26:31,799 Speaker 2: from the Las Vegas Fox Sports Radio Tarac dot Com studios. 1548 01:26:32,120 --> 01:26:33,719 Speaker 2: Keep it locked right here. You're listening to the Bernie 1549 01:26:33,720 --> 01:26:37,280 Speaker 2: Fraddle Show on Fox Sports Radio. Hi, we're back of 1550 01:26:37,320 --> 01:26:40,080 Speaker 2: the Bernie Frattle Show Fox Sports Radio, coming to live 1551 01:26:40,160 --> 01:26:43,479 Speaker 2: from Tarac dot Com studios here in Las Vegas. Coming 1552 01:26:43,560 --> 01:26:45,560 Speaker 2: up top of the hour, about forty four minutes. The 1553 01:26:45,680 --> 01:26:48,639 Speaker 2: dance sensation sweep of the Nation, what kind of brand 1554 01:26:48,680 --> 01:26:53,360 Speaker 2: new fool of you? Followed by what my name? All right? 1555 01:26:53,479 --> 01:26:57,360 Speaker 2: So by now you've heard the other night ESPN cuts 1556 01:26:57,400 --> 01:26:59,800 Speaker 2: away from a hockey game. They were able to get 1557 01:26:59,800 --> 01:27:03,800 Speaker 2: it back within twenty seconds, but once social media blew up, 1558 01:27:03,920 --> 01:27:06,760 Speaker 2: it didn't take long before a reference to the infamous 1559 01:27:07,560 --> 01:27:11,280 Speaker 2: Heidi Bowl. So let's set this up, because this is 1560 01:27:11,360 --> 01:27:15,400 Speaker 2: a story that's got a lot of layers. The Heidi 1561 01:27:15,479 --> 01:27:20,040 Speaker 2: bowld involved a football game played in Oakland November seventeenth, 1562 01:27:20,160 --> 01:27:23,920 Speaker 2: nineteen sixty eight, between the Oakland Raiders and the New 1563 01:27:24,040 --> 01:27:27,280 Speaker 2: York Jets. Now you want to talk about a rivalry, 1564 01:27:27,880 --> 01:27:30,439 Speaker 2: the director of public relations, Frank Ronalds the New York 1565 01:27:30,520 --> 01:27:32,519 Speaker 2: Jets once set at the time when the Jets played 1566 01:27:32,520 --> 01:27:36,479 Speaker 2: the Raiders, it wasn't a rivalry, it was a war. Now, 1567 01:27:36,760 --> 01:27:39,559 Speaker 2: this was that same New York Jets team that would 1568 01:27:39,600 --> 01:27:42,400 Speaker 2: go on two months later to beat the Baltimore Colts 1569 01:27:42,439 --> 01:27:45,400 Speaker 2: in the Super Bowl. Super Bowl three has seventeen point underdogs. 1570 01:27:46,000 --> 01:27:48,000 Speaker 2: Let's not get too ahead of ourselves. This is also 1571 01:27:48,120 --> 01:27:52,439 Speaker 2: a game that featured ten future Hall of Famers. But 1572 01:27:52,520 --> 01:27:56,880 Speaker 2: you got to set this up. You see NFL games 1573 01:27:56,920 --> 01:27:59,960 Speaker 2: take forever to play. Now, but back in the late sixties, 1574 01:28:00,720 --> 01:28:04,920 Speaker 2: most football games took right around two to two and 1575 01:28:04,960 --> 01:28:07,280 Speaker 2: a half hours to play, never longer than two and 1576 01:28:07,280 --> 01:28:10,200 Speaker 2: a half hours, but they were given a three hour 1577 01:28:10,360 --> 01:28:12,280 Speaker 2: time slot. They were always a lot of a three 1578 01:28:12,320 --> 01:28:15,600 Speaker 2: hour time slot to play the games, and that was 1579 01:28:16,280 --> 01:28:19,680 Speaker 2: always thought to be adequate, and typically it was. But 1580 01:28:19,840 --> 01:28:22,679 Speaker 2: you get too highly charged teams like the Raiders and Jets, 1581 01:28:23,439 --> 01:28:26,880 Speaker 2: you got penalties, you got fights, you got injuries. It 1582 01:28:27,000 --> 01:28:30,840 Speaker 2: was a high scoring contest and there were so many 1583 01:28:30,920 --> 01:28:33,679 Speaker 2: passes through and both quarterbacks combined for thirty winning completion, 1584 01:28:33,840 --> 01:28:36,880 Speaker 2: so there was lots of play stoppages. All of a sudden, 1585 01:28:37,479 --> 01:28:41,599 Speaker 2: you started to climb close to seven pm Eastern Time, 1586 01:28:42,280 --> 01:28:49,400 Speaker 2: in which NBC was obligated to broadcast a television movie 1587 01:28:49,760 --> 01:28:55,600 Speaker 2: by the name of Heidi. Yes, Heidi. Well, the executives 1588 01:28:55,640 --> 01:28:59,400 Speaker 2: could see that this game was coming down to the wire, 1589 01:29:00,320 --> 01:29:03,160 Speaker 2: and they apparently made some sort of decision, we can't 1590 01:29:03,240 --> 01:29:07,800 Speaker 2: cut away from this game. But somewhere along the line, 1591 01:29:08,120 --> 01:29:15,600 Speaker 2: signals got crossed and one thing led to another, and 1592 01:29:16,680 --> 01:29:22,200 Speaker 2: sure enough the network cut away from the game to 1593 01:29:23,560 --> 01:29:27,880 Speaker 2: the movie Heidi. Well, here's where it gets interesting. They 1594 01:29:27,920 --> 01:29:32,080 Speaker 2: were basically sixty five seconds in the game at that point, 1595 01:29:33,800 --> 01:29:37,120 Speaker 2: and the score was tied twenty nine to twenty nine. 1596 01:29:37,280 --> 01:29:40,439 Speaker 2: So right after they cut away, the Jets kicked the 1597 01:29:40,479 --> 01:29:42,200 Speaker 2: field goal to take a thirty to two to twenty 1598 01:29:42,320 --> 01:29:45,760 Speaker 2: nine lead, and then they kicked off. This is where 1599 01:29:45,840 --> 01:29:50,120 Speaker 2: it really gets crazy. The Jets kick off, the Raiders 1600 01:29:50,200 --> 01:29:52,800 Speaker 2: returned the ball to drown twenty three yard line Hoham right, 1601 01:29:53,200 --> 01:29:56,639 Speaker 2: trailing thirty two to twenty nine. But then the Raiders 1602 01:29:56,760 --> 01:30:00,600 Speaker 2: quarterback Daryl Lamonica completed a twenty yard pass to a 1603 01:30:00,680 --> 01:30:03,640 Speaker 2: half back by the name of Charlie Smith, who was 1604 01:30:03,720 --> 01:30:07,760 Speaker 2: face masked by the Jets safety. That play put the 1605 01:30:07,840 --> 01:30:13,439 Speaker 2: ball damn near midfield. This time, Lamonica found Smith again, 1606 01:30:14,080 --> 01:30:17,840 Speaker 2: who raced the defense down the sideline for a fifty 1607 01:30:17,920 --> 01:30:21,640 Speaker 2: yard touchdown all of a sudden now just like that, 1608 01:30:22,520 --> 01:30:24,800 Speaker 2: with no one able to see the game, The extra 1609 01:30:24,880 --> 01:30:27,800 Speaker 2: point gives the Raiders a thirty six to thirty two 1610 01:30:27,920 --> 01:30:32,760 Speaker 2: lead with forty two seconds left to play. On the 1611 01:30:32,880 --> 01:30:36,120 Speaker 2: ensuing kickoff, the Jets had a kick returner by the 1612 01:30:36,200 --> 01:30:41,200 Speaker 2: name of Earl Christy. He fumbles the ball. The Raiders 1613 01:30:41,240 --> 01:30:44,559 Speaker 2: pick it up at the two yard line by one 1614 01:30:44,560 --> 01:30:47,240 Speaker 2: of their special teams players who runs it in for 1615 01:30:47,360 --> 01:30:53,960 Speaker 2: a touchdown. The Raiders go from being tied twenty nine 1616 01:30:54,000 --> 01:30:58,040 Speaker 2: to twenty nine to trailing thirty two to twenty nine, 1617 01:30:58,479 --> 01:31:02,720 Speaker 2: and in a nine second the Raiders scored two touchdowns 1618 01:31:03,200 --> 01:31:06,080 Speaker 2: to win one of the more infamous games in NFL 1619 01:31:06,200 --> 01:31:08,920 Speaker 2: history by a score of forty three to thirty two. 1620 01:31:10,479 --> 01:31:13,400 Speaker 2: And you really want to add insult to injury, Let's 1621 01:31:13,439 --> 01:31:15,240 Speaker 2: pretend you were the New York Jets and you were 1622 01:31:15,280 --> 01:31:18,360 Speaker 2: getting seven and a half points that day. You not 1623 01:31:18,479 --> 01:31:21,360 Speaker 2: only lost the game, you didn't even cover the spread. 1624 01:31:22,600 --> 01:31:28,160 Speaker 2: The Oakland Raiders won that game forty three to thirty two. 1625 01:31:30,080 --> 01:31:33,200 Speaker 2: Now a month later, the Jets would get their come 1626 01:31:33,240 --> 01:31:35,840 Speaker 2: ups and beat the Raiders in the AFC Championship Game, 1627 01:31:35,880 --> 01:31:40,519 Speaker 2: the AFL Championship Game, and you know they went on 1628 01:31:40,640 --> 01:31:46,000 Speaker 2: to win the Super Bowl. All right, how does this happen? 1629 01:31:46,800 --> 01:31:49,160 Speaker 2: How does this happen? Well, first of all, the game 1630 01:31:49,240 --> 01:31:52,639 Speaker 2: took forever. The two starting quarterbacks, like I said, combined 1631 01:31:52,680 --> 01:31:55,280 Speaker 2: for thirty one incomplete passes. And every time you have 1632 01:31:55,320 --> 01:31:59,679 Speaker 2: an incomplete pass, the clock stops in every incompletion. Oh yeah, 1633 01:32:00,200 --> 01:32:02,000 Speaker 2: because it was a chippy game and the two teams 1634 01:32:02,040 --> 01:32:05,599 Speaker 2: hated each other, there were nineteen penalties called that's more 1635 01:32:06,040 --> 01:32:12,200 Speaker 2: clock stoppages. Back then, teams each got six timeouts. Each 1636 01:32:12,320 --> 01:32:16,200 Speaker 2: team used all six of their allocated timeouts, and when 1637 01:32:16,240 --> 01:32:18,200 Speaker 2: you consider all the scores that were made, they led 1638 01:32:18,200 --> 01:32:20,599 Speaker 2: the more commercial breaks. Total seventy five points were scored. 1639 01:32:23,320 --> 01:32:26,320 Speaker 2: The executives could see this game was going to take 1640 01:32:26,600 --> 01:32:33,680 Speaker 2: longer than people realized. And here's what's interesting. NBC had 1641 01:32:33,720 --> 01:32:37,840 Speaker 2: a vice president name Chet Simmons. I'm sure you've heard 1642 01:32:37,880 --> 01:32:41,320 Speaker 2: that name. And when they started to realize about half 1643 01:32:41,400 --> 01:32:44,479 Speaker 2: an hour before Haii was supposed to start at seven 1644 01:32:44,520 --> 01:32:47,479 Speaker 2: PM that the game might end, they just, for some reason, 1645 01:32:47,520 --> 01:32:51,200 Speaker 2: they kept promoting Heidi. They kept promoting the that Heidie's 1646 01:32:51,240 --> 01:32:55,360 Speaker 2: coming up at seven o'clock. And Julian Goodman, the president 1647 01:32:55,400 --> 01:33:01,880 Speaker 2: of the company, said, there's no way this game's gonna 1648 01:33:01,960 --> 01:33:06,080 Speaker 2: end by seven o'clock, but Heidi has to start on time. 1649 01:33:06,160 --> 01:33:09,200 Speaker 2: They have to start Heidi because the network had made 1650 01:33:09,240 --> 01:33:12,040 Speaker 2: a commitment to start Heidi. And then they're looking at 1651 01:33:12,080 --> 01:33:15,360 Speaker 2: themselves and say that this cannot be. This cannot be 1652 01:33:15,439 --> 01:33:18,479 Speaker 2: the collision course we're looking for. And sure enough, it 1653 01:33:18,560 --> 01:33:22,200 Speaker 2: was the collision course we're looking for. And network executives 1654 01:33:22,240 --> 01:33:25,639 Speaker 2: were calling back and forth. People were losing their minds. 1655 01:33:27,240 --> 01:33:31,320 Speaker 2: What do we do? They ran into this collision course 1656 01:33:32,400 --> 01:33:35,200 Speaker 2: and one thing led to another, and they cut away 1657 01:33:35,200 --> 01:33:38,920 Speaker 2: from the game. And this is where it gets interesting. Obviously, 1658 01:33:38,960 --> 01:33:43,479 Speaker 2: there was no Twitter back in nineteen sixty eight, but 1659 01:33:43,640 --> 01:33:49,519 Speaker 2: there was one hell of a viewer reaction. When NBC 1660 01:33:49,800 --> 01:33:53,800 Speaker 2: realized that they were switching away from the game, a 1661 01:33:53,880 --> 01:33:58,080 Speaker 2: couple of executives called each other and said that maybe 1662 01:33:58,120 --> 01:34:00,680 Speaker 2: weren't looped in, said, we're the the hell is our 1663 01:34:00,760 --> 01:34:05,000 Speaker 2: football game gone? And then the station went to a 1664 01:34:05,040 --> 01:34:09,480 Speaker 2: station break, and the executives were dialing each other feverishly 1665 01:34:09,600 --> 01:34:12,680 Speaker 2: and going back and forth. And for the record, the 1666 01:34:12,800 --> 01:34:18,760 Speaker 2: game actually ended officially at seven oh seven PM. And 1667 01:34:18,920 --> 01:34:21,320 Speaker 2: if they, you know, in today's day and age, we 1668 01:34:21,479 --> 01:34:23,040 Speaker 2: just would have gone over. That's just simply what we 1669 01:34:23,080 --> 01:34:27,519 Speaker 2: would have happened. But all hell broke loose by that point. 1670 01:34:28,200 --> 01:34:31,200 Speaker 2: Thousands and thousands of calls were lobbed into the network 1671 01:34:31,240 --> 01:34:33,160 Speaker 2: to complain about missing at the end of the football game. 1672 01:34:34,479 --> 01:34:39,519 Speaker 2: Callers called newspapers, they called television stations, They even called 1673 01:34:39,880 --> 01:34:44,000 Speaker 2: the New York City Police Department. Some of them wanted 1674 01:34:44,000 --> 01:34:47,320 Speaker 2: to vent, most just wanted to know what the hell 1675 01:34:47,360 --> 01:34:52,400 Speaker 2: the final score of the game was. There was a 1676 01:34:52,760 --> 01:34:54,920 Speaker 2: humorist by the name of Art Buckwald, I believe he 1677 01:34:54,920 --> 01:34:56,360 Speaker 2: wrote for the New York Times for a long time. 1678 01:34:56,400 --> 01:34:59,320 Speaker 2: He said, quote, men, these are men who wouldn't even 1679 01:34:59,320 --> 01:35:01,160 Speaker 2: get out of their chain during an earthquake. They were 1680 01:35:01,280 --> 01:35:05,080 Speaker 2: rushing to their phones to obscream insanities at the network. 1681 01:35:05,720 --> 01:35:08,000 Speaker 2: And when people started to learn the outcome of the game, 1682 01:35:08,840 --> 01:35:12,519 Speaker 2: some gamblers really started to become upset because, as I 1683 01:35:12,640 --> 01:35:16,559 Speaker 2: just mentioned, that final touchdown on the fubbo kickoff allowed 1684 01:35:16,600 --> 01:35:18,840 Speaker 2: the Raiders to win by more than a point spread 1685 01:35:18,880 --> 01:35:22,120 Speaker 2: at seven and a half. Can you imagine that, Ian? 1686 01:35:22,200 --> 01:35:25,160 Speaker 2: Can you imagine that not only does your favorite team lose, 1687 01:35:25,800 --> 01:35:27,720 Speaker 2: but you got a plus seven and a half, you 1688 01:35:27,920 --> 01:35:31,400 Speaker 2: thinking you won the bet. There's sixty seconds left in 1689 01:35:31,439 --> 01:35:33,680 Speaker 2: the game, it's tied. You kick a field goal to 1690 01:35:33,760 --> 01:35:35,280 Speaker 2: go ahead, which you didn't see. 1691 01:35:36,120 --> 01:35:38,360 Speaker 10: I'd be mad enough, But on once you bring money 1692 01:35:38,400 --> 01:35:41,240 Speaker 10: into it, that that's where you really start to start 1693 01:35:41,320 --> 01:35:42,160 Speaker 10: to have an issue. 1694 01:35:43,800 --> 01:35:47,920 Speaker 2: This is all the way around an absolute disaster. Now 1695 01:35:49,080 --> 01:35:54,800 Speaker 2: the network realized at this point, all right, again, you 1696 01:35:54,880 --> 01:35:59,600 Speaker 2: didn't have any kind of the media technology that you 1697 01:35:59,720 --> 01:36:04,240 Speaker 2: had that you have now, and so the networks is 1698 01:36:04,240 --> 01:36:06,120 Speaker 2: what do we do? So they ran sort of the 1699 01:36:06,240 --> 01:36:10,439 Speaker 2: sports bulletin, which must have looked very crude on the TV, 1700 01:36:11,520 --> 01:36:14,519 Speaker 2: because people needed to know. People wanted to know the 1701 01:36:14,680 --> 01:36:18,120 Speaker 2: outcome of the game so badly they were calling the 1702 01:36:18,880 --> 01:36:22,400 Speaker 2: New York City Police Department. True story, thousands of calls 1703 01:36:22,520 --> 01:36:25,679 Speaker 2: jammed NBC, thousands of calls jammed the New York Times. 1704 01:36:26,200 --> 01:36:29,720 Speaker 2: So finally, and in attempts to inform the audience of 1705 01:36:29,800 --> 01:36:33,080 Speaker 2: the final outcome of the game, NBC displays this message 1706 01:36:33,760 --> 01:36:36,360 Speaker 2: across the bottom of the TV in bold capital letters, 1707 01:36:36,640 --> 01:36:41,280 Speaker 2: sports bulletin, Raiders defeat Jets forty three to thirty two. 1708 01:36:41,960 --> 01:36:44,080 Speaker 2: And it was nothing more than an on screen news 1709 01:36:44,160 --> 01:36:50,639 Speaker 2: update that appeared superimposed over the movie. And it happened 1710 01:36:50,640 --> 01:36:56,320 Speaker 2: apparently during a very pivotal scene during the Heidi movie. 1711 01:36:56,320 --> 01:36:57,679 Speaker 2: I won't tell you what it is. You can google 1712 01:36:57,720 --> 01:36:59,320 Speaker 2: it and find out. And nonely, this is a mystery. 1713 01:37:00,000 --> 01:37:02,320 Speaker 2: And so all of a sudden, now you have the 1714 01:37:02,680 --> 01:37:06,680 Speaker 2: You already have the football fans pissed off, beyond out 1715 01:37:06,680 --> 01:37:11,960 Speaker 2: of their mind realizing what they had missed, and they're incredulous. 1716 01:37:12,479 --> 01:37:15,600 Speaker 2: Now you got the Heidi audience pissed at having this 1717 01:37:16,040 --> 01:37:19,800 Speaker 2: football score and trude on the story the Heidi movie, 1718 01:37:19,920 --> 01:37:23,400 Speaker 2: and apparently it involved a very touching moment during the 1719 01:37:23,479 --> 01:37:27,720 Speaker 2: movie having to do with a young girl who's paralyzed 1720 01:37:27,800 --> 01:37:31,720 Speaker 2: taking her first steps trying to walk. Yeah, you talk 1721 01:37:31,760 --> 01:37:36,559 Speaker 2: about the perfect storm. I mean, there was no way 1722 01:37:36,800 --> 01:37:40,720 Speaker 2: NBC could dig themselves out of them. Finally, the executive 1723 01:37:40,800 --> 01:37:44,960 Speaker 2: started to issue statements apologizing for the incident, saying, you know, 1724 01:37:45,880 --> 01:37:47,880 Speaker 2: we missed the end of the game too. We're sorry. 1725 01:37:48,400 --> 01:37:52,240 Speaker 2: This is an unforgivable error committed by humans. We were 1726 01:37:52,320 --> 01:37:56,240 Speaker 2: concerned because millions of families and children were expecting to 1727 01:37:56,280 --> 01:37:58,400 Speaker 2: see the movie. They've been pro going it all weekend 1728 01:37:59,760 --> 01:38:02,800 Speaker 2: and the following morning. I understand there was a meeting 1729 01:38:02,880 --> 01:38:05,360 Speaker 2: Monday morning that was a network fiasco that was just 1730 01:38:05,560 --> 01:38:12,639 Speaker 2: completely crazy, right, And uh, they even asked Joe Namath, 1731 01:38:13,680 --> 01:38:16,439 Speaker 2: what do you think about what do you think about 1732 01:38:16,520 --> 01:38:21,960 Speaker 2: the network cutting away to the Heidi movie, And obviously 1733 01:38:22,120 --> 01:38:25,280 Speaker 2: Namath was already pissed off about losing the game the 1734 01:38:25,360 --> 01:38:29,080 Speaker 2: way that they lost the game. In typical Joe Namath fashion, 1735 01:38:29,160 --> 01:38:31,479 Speaker 2: he says, well, as far as the movie, I didn't 1736 01:38:31,479 --> 01:38:32,800 Speaker 2: get a chance to see it, but I heard it 1737 01:38:32,920 --> 01:38:36,800 Speaker 2: was great. I mean he just pat and pushed it. Well. Obviously, 1738 01:38:38,880 --> 01:38:42,240 Speaker 2: the network you know, swung into action and they realized 1739 01:38:42,360 --> 01:38:46,320 Speaker 2: that this can never happen again. This can never happen again. 1740 01:38:47,160 --> 01:38:52,280 Speaker 2: And uh, the network started to change its procedures that 1741 01:38:52,360 --> 01:38:55,120 Speaker 2: if games weren't going to finish before the other programming begins, 1742 01:38:55,200 --> 01:38:58,400 Speaker 2: they have, you know, ways to handle around it, which 1743 01:38:58,439 --> 01:39:00,840 Speaker 2: has now become sort of stamped entered practice. I mean, 1744 01:39:00,880 --> 01:39:02,760 Speaker 2: this is a long time ago for kronaw This is 1745 01:39:03,320 --> 01:39:05,719 Speaker 2: fifty six years ago. It was just the perfect storm 1746 01:39:05,800 --> 01:39:10,080 Speaker 2: of events, a series of events that just completely muddled together. 1747 01:39:10,240 --> 01:39:13,559 Speaker 2: The game ran late, lots of scoring, penalties, fights, injuries, 1748 01:39:14,160 --> 01:39:17,040 Speaker 2: and if the Jets would have won, the truth of 1749 01:39:17,120 --> 01:39:18,960 Speaker 2: the matter is it might not have been as big 1750 01:39:19,040 --> 01:39:21,960 Speaker 2: of a deal because it all centered around New York 1751 01:39:22,000 --> 01:39:25,120 Speaker 2: and NBC and what had happened there. But the fact 1752 01:39:25,160 --> 01:39:27,720 Speaker 2: that the Jets lost and they even cover the spread, right, 1753 01:39:28,920 --> 01:39:31,400 Speaker 2: and it turns out the team that I mean, even 1754 01:39:31,439 --> 01:39:35,960 Speaker 2: the team itself, they were just completely enraged how this 1755 01:39:36,120 --> 01:39:40,240 Speaker 2: could happen? Right, This was just simply a situation that 1756 01:39:40,320 --> 01:39:42,519 Speaker 2: it was a bad look all the way around. So 1757 01:39:43,920 --> 01:39:48,280 Speaker 2: you know, you really can't pooh, pooh, what happened the 1758 01:39:48,320 --> 01:39:51,000 Speaker 2: other night in the hockey game? Because the truth of 1759 01:39:51,040 --> 01:39:56,840 Speaker 2: the matter is when people on Twitter are remembering something 1760 01:39:56,880 --> 01:39:59,639 Speaker 2: that happened fifty six years ago and they're watching their 1761 01:39:59,680 --> 01:40:02,720 Speaker 2: favorite team and there's less than a minute to goo 1762 01:40:02,760 --> 01:40:04,280 Speaker 2: and a teams get ready to go to a power play, 1763 01:40:04,280 --> 01:40:07,360 Speaker 2: it's a gaming to overtime. What's going to happen? And uh, 1764 01:40:07,720 --> 01:40:10,960 Speaker 2: you know, I guess you can. You can, certainly anybody 1765 01:40:11,040 --> 01:40:13,479 Speaker 2: listening here, anybody who's a sports fan can can really 1766 01:40:13,600 --> 01:40:20,400 Speaker 2: realize that this is a you know, there's an old 1767 01:40:20,479 --> 01:40:23,720 Speaker 2: saying they say that, you know, sports is it's it's 1768 01:40:23,840 --> 01:40:26,360 Speaker 2: not life and death. Well it's actually more important than that. 1769 01:40:26,640 --> 01:40:29,679 Speaker 2: Or you know, sure sports is life and death. Sure 1770 01:40:29,760 --> 01:40:32,280 Speaker 2: the Grand Canyon just to hold in Arizona. People take 1771 01:40:32,320 --> 01:40:35,320 Speaker 2: this stuff serious. Good news is the Jet's defeat of 1772 01:40:35,320 --> 01:40:38,040 Speaker 2: the Raiders twenty seven to twenty three. About a month later, 1773 01:40:38,120 --> 01:40:40,200 Speaker 2: they went on to defeat the Colts in Super Bowl three. 1774 01:40:40,280 --> 01:40:43,679 Speaker 2: But forever, the Heidi Bowl will never be lived down. 1775 01:40:45,720 --> 01:40:45,840 Speaker 13: There. 1776 01:40:45,920 --> 01:40:49,840 Speaker 2: You have it. Let's go to Dan Byer with the latest. 1777 01:40:52,080 --> 01:40:54,559 Speaker 9: I hope no one's going to interrupt me during these 1778 01:40:54,680 --> 01:40:57,360 Speaker 9: ninety seconds of great information burning. 1779 01:40:58,960 --> 01:40:59,360 Speaker 2: My friend. 1780 01:40:59,680 --> 01:41:02,840 Speaker 9: I am oh, I am not preempted by Heidi. We'll 1781 01:41:02,880 --> 01:41:05,600 Speaker 9: give it a shot, all right. Celtics top the Cavaliers 1782 01:41:05,640 --> 01:41:08,719 Speaker 9: on Saturday Night, one o six to ninety three. Jason 1783 01:41:08,760 --> 01:41:12,400 Speaker 9: Tatum thirty three points, thirteen rebounds, six assists in the 1784 01:41:12,560 --> 01:41:16,200 Speaker 9: victory Jalen Brown at twenty eight. Celtics came out of 1785 01:41:16,240 --> 01:41:19,280 Speaker 9: the gates in the second half and Cleveland never got close. 1786 01:41:19,360 --> 01:41:21,280 Speaker 2: In fact, the closest they got was nine. 1787 01:41:21,760 --> 01:41:24,519 Speaker 9: Boston rights their wrongs and now again up to one 1788 01:41:24,600 --> 01:41:27,679 Speaker 9: in the best of seven series. Mavericks meat the Thunder 1789 01:41:27,760 --> 01:41:29,680 Speaker 9: one oh five to one oh one. Dallas up in 1790 01:41:29,760 --> 01:41:32,560 Speaker 9: that series two to one. Sunday's a big day of 1791 01:41:32,600 --> 01:41:35,920 Speaker 9: the NBA. The draft lottery will be taking place at 1792 01:41:36,000 --> 01:41:39,439 Speaker 9: three o'clock Eastern time. The Pistons and Wizards have the 1793 01:41:39,520 --> 01:41:42,840 Speaker 9: best odds to get the number one overall pick. Soon 1794 01:41:42,920 --> 01:41:45,760 Speaker 9: after that three thirty Eastern it's Game four between the 1795 01:41:45,840 --> 01:41:49,160 Speaker 9: Nix and Pacers, and then at night eight o'clock Eastern time, 1796 01:41:49,280 --> 01:41:52,760 Speaker 9: Nuggets and Timberwolves will play their Game four.

Dallas now up two to 1799 01:41:58,320 --> 01:42:01,639 Speaker 9: one in the series.

That's where you can 1825 01:43:20,280 --> 01:43:23,639 Speaker 9: catch it, Bernie, it's all yours, Dan. 1826 01:43:23,680 --> 01:43:26,200 Speaker 2: You're quite a historian. I'm sure you are familiar with 1827 01:43:26,280 --> 01:43:27,840 Speaker 2: the Heidi Bowl, that whole story somewhat. 1828 01:43:28,720 --> 01:43:32,400 Speaker 9: Yes, you know a little before my time, but you know, 1829 01:43:32,640 --> 01:43:34,720 Speaker 9: just the parameters and some of the stuff that you 1830 01:43:34,800 --> 01:43:37,240 Speaker 9: were talking about, not everything you were talking about, but 1831 01:43:37,320 --> 01:43:38,559 Speaker 9: some of the stuff you were talking about. 1832 01:43:38,720 --> 01:43:40,519 Speaker 2: It's one of those things that will never be lived on, 1833 01:43:40,680 --> 01:43:42,639 Speaker 2: as evidenced by the tweets the other night. And I'm 1834 01:43:42,640 --> 01:43:44,320 Speaker 2: sure you were aware of what happened in that hockey 1835 01:43:44,400 --> 01:43:48,479 Speaker 2: game and how they cut away. Yes, people were losing 1836 01:43:48,520 --> 01:43:51,040 Speaker 2: their minds and that was over twenty seconds. Twenty seconds 1837 01:43:51,400 --> 01:43:53,360 Speaker 2: seemed like an eternity. And you know what's interesting, Dan, 1838 01:43:53,479 --> 01:43:57,200 Speaker 2: imagine if you were a network that paid one hundred 1839 01:43:57,200 --> 01:44:01,800 Speaker 2: million dollars to carry a couple of games, and you 1840 01:44:01,920 --> 01:44:04,840 Speaker 2: are a consumer and you paid to watch those games, 1841 01:44:05,280 --> 01:44:08,000 Speaker 2: and that same thing happened, what might happen in today's. 1842 01:44:07,720 --> 01:44:10,720 Speaker 9: World day, Oh my goodness, the lawsuits and everything that 1843 01:44:10,760 --> 01:44:11,439 Speaker 9: would come with it. 1844 01:44:11,760 --> 01:44:14,320 Speaker 2: Didn't you think of that. That's a good point, man, Dan. 1845 01:44:14,400 --> 01:44:17,640 Speaker 9: Great to have you tonight, but thank you. 1846 01:44:17,920 --> 01:44:20,080 Speaker 2: And the reason I segue that is because, believe it 1847 01:44:20,200 --> 01:44:23,120 Speaker 2: or not, Netflix, he's on the verge of landing two 1848 01:44:23,200 --> 01:44:26,679 Speaker 2: big NFL games. All Right, we know that the NFL 1849 01:44:26,880 --> 01:44:28,800 Speaker 2: is going to play games on Christmas Day again this 1850 01:44:29,000 --> 01:44:32,600 Speaker 2: upcoming season. Here's what's different. A new provider could be 1851 01:44:32,680 --> 01:44:38,280 Speaker 2: carrying the action. It's being reported that the NFL is 1852 01:44:38,560 --> 01:44:41,880 Speaker 2: very close to nearing an agreement with Netflix for the 1853 01:44:41,920 --> 01:44:43,880 Speaker 2: doublehead of Christmas Day games that are gonna be played 1854 01:44:43,880 --> 01:44:45,760 Speaker 2: in twenty twenty four on a Wednesday, and they're going 1855 01:44:45,840 --> 01:44:50,920 Speaker 2: to be broadcast wait for it, on a streaming service. Yes, Netflix. No, 1856 01:44:50,960 --> 01:44:53,240 Speaker 2: if you have Netflix and you pay the I think 1857 01:44:53,280 --> 01:44:55,000 Speaker 2: it's eleven ninety nine a month, like either you get 1858 01:44:55,040 --> 01:44:56,400 Speaker 2: the games, but she's got to pay for it now 1859 01:44:56,479 --> 01:45:00,200 Speaker 2: right now. Apparently it's the deal's not done yet. This 1860 01:45:00,360 --> 01:45:03,799 Speaker 2: two sides have to clear some hurdles, but every source 1861 01:45:04,439 --> 01:45:07,439 Speaker 2: talk to about this believes the deal's gonna get done now. 1862 01:45:07,479 --> 01:45:11,080 Speaker 2: The NFL schedule was supposed to initially be released last Thursday. 1863 01:45:11,360 --> 01:45:15,720 Speaker 2: That's been delayed till next Wednesday. Why because apparently that 1864 01:45:15,960 --> 01:45:19,599 Speaker 2: negotiation between the NFL and Netflix whether the primary reason 1865 01:45:19,960 --> 01:45:24,160 Speaker 2: the schedule release was pushed back. Three NFL games were 1866 01:45:24,160 --> 01:45:26,439 Speaker 2: played on Christmas Day last season, and they blew up. 1867 01:45:26,479 --> 01:45:30,120 Speaker 2: They were carried by Fox, ESPN, and ABC. Those games 1868 01:45:30,160 --> 01:45:32,280 Speaker 2: were on a Monday, but with Christmas falling out on 1869 01:45:32,320 --> 01:45:34,640 Speaker 2: Wednesday this year, there was some question about whether the 1870 01:45:34,800 --> 01:45:36,360 Speaker 2: NFL would want to have games in the middle of 1871 01:45:36,400 --> 01:45:39,720 Speaker 2: the week. Well, they're going to make no mistake, and 1872 01:45:39,920 --> 01:45:43,120 Speaker 2: money talks and how much is Netflix going to pay 1873 01:45:43,200 --> 01:45:46,880 Speaker 2: for this? As much as one hundred million dollars to 1874 01:45:47,080 --> 01:45:50,320 Speaker 2: carry a Christmas Day doubleheader. We're not talking about a 1875 01:45:50,360 --> 01:45:54,720 Speaker 2: season where the games. We're talking about two games. You 1876 01:45:54,800 --> 01:45:57,439 Speaker 2: imagine if they paid for those two games or one 1877 01:45:57,479 --> 01:46:00,400 Speaker 2: of those games, and you, as a consumer are paying 1878 01:46:00,400 --> 01:46:02,840 Speaker 2: for Netflix and something cuts away. Okay, we know it's 1879 01:46:02,880 --> 01:46:05,240 Speaker 2: not going to happen. It was only a matter of 1880 01:46:05,360 --> 01:46:08,439 Speaker 2: time before Netflix got a piece of the pie. Everybody 1881 01:46:08,560 --> 01:46:12,599 Speaker 2: wants in have you forgotten? Hasn't been that long ago? 1882 01:46:13,800 --> 01:46:18,439 Speaker 2: Amazon is now. Actually they did this in February. They 1883 01:46:18,800 --> 01:46:24,040 Speaker 2: pay a record price for the first or check that. 1884 01:46:24,160 --> 01:46:28,920 Speaker 2: Let me start over. Amazon in February paid a record 1885 01:46:29,360 --> 01:46:34,920 Speaker 2: price for the opportunity to broadcast one NFL playoff game. 1886 01:46:35,760 --> 01:46:37,680 Speaker 2: Now you remember last year I did this on my 1887 01:46:37,760 --> 01:46:40,880 Speaker 2: midnight hour people on Friday night. People were not happy. 1888 01:46:41,640 --> 01:46:44,120 Speaker 2: The NFL had a lot of backlash last year for 1889 01:46:44,280 --> 01:46:47,720 Speaker 2: giving a streaming platform exclusive rights to a playoff game. 1890 01:46:48,960 --> 01:46:52,840 Speaker 2: But it worked because they're coming right back for a 1891 01:46:52,880 --> 01:46:57,040 Speaker 2: second back of the apple because Amazon paid a record 1892 01:46:57,080 --> 01:46:59,720 Speaker 2: amount of money for them to do it again this 1893 01:46:59,840 --> 01:47:04,720 Speaker 2: year year. Let's reset the stage. Remember last December that 1894 01:47:04,920 --> 01:47:06,640 Speaker 2: or checked that it was in? It checked that it 1895 01:47:06,680 --> 01:47:08,160 Speaker 2: was in. It was in January. It was the AFC 1896 01:47:08,320 --> 01:47:12,040 Speaker 2: Wildcard game between the Miami Dolphins and the Kansas City Chiefs. 1897 01:47:13,000 --> 01:47:17,519 Speaker 2: NBC their Peacock service, they had the exclusive rights to 1898 01:47:17,720 --> 01:47:23,040 Speaker 2: that game. And Amazon is paying one hundred and twenty 1899 01:47:23,080 --> 01:47:26,479 Speaker 2: million dollars to get one playoff game again this year. 1900 01:47:26,800 --> 01:47:29,280 Speaker 2: They paid one hundred and ten million last year. Now 1901 01:47:29,360 --> 01:47:33,760 Speaker 2: you may wonder why they would do that, Well, Peacock, 1902 01:47:33,880 --> 01:47:38,880 Speaker 2: I believe they charged someone's gonna have to look this 1903 01:47:39,040 --> 01:47:40,439 Speaker 2: up for maybe even one of the guys could look 1904 01:47:40,479 --> 01:47:42,640 Speaker 2: it up. I forget what the price was. It was 1905 01:47:42,760 --> 01:47:47,880 Speaker 2: not an exorbitant amount of money. Let's say seven to 1906 01:47:47,960 --> 01:47:51,320 Speaker 2: ninety nine, all right, in two twenty two million viewers, 1907 01:47:51,800 --> 01:47:55,680 Speaker 2: twenty three million viewers. Peacock had one playoff game. Now, 1908 01:47:55,760 --> 01:47:59,000 Speaker 2: thank god it was Kansas City and Patrick Mahomes versus 1909 01:47:59,080 --> 01:48:03,839 Speaker 2: the Miami Dolphins. But they drew twenty three million viewers. 1910 01:48:04,240 --> 01:48:07,000 Speaker 2: So what multiply that times what it was seven ninety 1911 01:48:07,080 --> 01:48:09,240 Speaker 2: ninety there's one hundred and eighty million. You pay a 1912 01:48:09,360 --> 01:48:11,720 Speaker 2: hundred million, you bring home one hundred and eighty. You 1913 01:48:11,760 --> 01:48:13,880 Speaker 2: don't have to be felleeny to figure out the math. 1914 01:48:13,920 --> 01:48:18,040 Speaker 2: That's pretty good on that, isn't it. Well it gets 1915 01:48:18,080 --> 01:48:21,120 Speaker 2: even better. We had a Black Friday broadcast this past 1916 01:48:21,160 --> 01:48:24,000 Speaker 2: year and Aaron Rodgers didn't even play. It was shown 1917 01:48:24,080 --> 01:48:28,360 Speaker 2: on Prime Video. It drew just under ten million viewers. 1918 01:48:29,479 --> 01:48:33,040 Speaker 2: So you get Amazon together, you get Prime Video together, 1919 01:48:33,400 --> 01:48:35,759 Speaker 2: you get Netflix together. They're all bidding on this stuff. 1920 01:48:36,240 --> 01:48:39,840 Speaker 2: Amazon already has the exclusive rights to the NFL's Thursday 1921 01:48:39,880 --> 01:48:43,160 Speaker 2: night football package, but they have a good chance at 1922 01:48:43,160 --> 01:48:46,800 Speaker 2: breaking Peacock's viewership record depending on which teams play in 1923 01:48:46,880 --> 01:48:51,040 Speaker 2: their wild card game this year. Because Amazon is in 1924 01:48:51,400 --> 01:48:55,760 Speaker 2: the fray. Yep, it never ends. Roger Goodell knows what 1925 01:48:55,960 --> 01:48:59,200 Speaker 2: the hell he's doing. Man, This is a league that 1926 01:48:59,479 --> 01:49:04,280 Speaker 2: just sent prints money. The NFL has built a machine 1927 01:49:04,840 --> 01:49:09,760 Speaker 2: that can only go forward. Coming up. You don't talk 1928 01:49:09,800 --> 01:49:13,240 Speaker 2: a lot of baseball here, but a couple notes this 1929 01:49:13,439 --> 01:49:16,120 Speaker 2: week that are worth mentioning, including give it up to 1930 01:49:16,160 --> 01:49:19,439 Speaker 2: the Baltimore Orioles. What have they done? Well, They've done 1931 01:49:19,520 --> 01:49:23,040 Speaker 2: something that's quite a streak. You have to go back 1932 01:49:23,280 --> 01:49:26,479 Speaker 2: to nineteen forty four to see when that street had 1933 01:49:26,560 --> 01:49:29,400 Speaker 2: been previously held.

What kind of brand new fool 1940 01:49:47,840 --> 01:49:50,560 Speaker 2: of you? Followed by what my name? I got a 1941 01:49:50,600 --> 01:49:54,400 Speaker 2: real newsy tonight, just to tighten up a bit of business, 1942 01:49:55,280 --> 01:50:01,320 Speaker 2: I was trying to recall what they charged. Peacock charged 1943 01:50:01,960 --> 01:50:05,799 Speaker 2: for that wild card game last January between the Chiefs 1944 01:50:06,000 --> 01:50:09,680 Speaker 2: and the Dolphins, in which they did get twenty three 1945 01:50:09,760 --> 01:50:12,479 Speaker 2: million viewers, and Ian has looked it up. Ian, what'd 1946 01:50:12,520 --> 01:50:12,840 Speaker 2: you find? 1947 01:50:13,360 --> 01:50:14,599 Speaker 10: It's five to ninety nine. 1948 01:50:17,439 --> 01:50:21,120 Speaker 2: I was wrong. So even if you multiply five ninety nine, 1949 01:50:21,200 --> 01:50:23,120 Speaker 2: that's he won twenty one thirty, one hundred and thirty 1950 01:50:23,160 --> 01:50:25,040 Speaker 2: eight million. If you spend one hundred million, you bring 1951 01:50:25,040 --> 01:50:27,360 Speaker 2: in one hundred and thirty eight million. No wonder why 1952 01:50:28,120 --> 01:50:31,040 Speaker 2: they're all vying for that again. This is, by the way, 1953 01:50:31,640 --> 01:50:33,160 Speaker 2: this is gonna be the way of the world. Ian, 1954 01:50:33,240 --> 01:50:34,880 Speaker 2: what do you think, man, you're gonna we're gonna be 1955 01:50:34,960 --> 01:50:40,120 Speaker 2: paying now streaming services for some of these games on 1956 01:50:40,200 --> 01:50:41,639 Speaker 2: a go forward basis? What are your thoughts? 1957 01:50:41,760 --> 01:50:43,920 Speaker 10: I just wish it was all in one place, you know. 1958 01:50:44,080 --> 01:50:46,720 Speaker 10: It's the annoying part is that I really don't have 1959 01:50:46,800 --> 01:50:50,400 Speaker 10: an issue with with NFL being on Netflix or Peacock. 1960 01:50:50,439 --> 01:50:52,439 Speaker 10: I just wish it was it was one place. 1961 01:50:52,560 --> 01:50:52,680 Speaker 6: You know. 1962 01:50:52,840 --> 01:50:55,840 Speaker 2: So Amazon, well, they all want a piece of the pie, right, 1963 01:50:56,120 --> 01:51:00,960 Speaker 2: So it's understandable, it is. It's crazy, yeah, getting crazier. 1964 01:51:01,080 --> 01:51:02,479 Speaker 2: I mean, that's why they had to hold up the 1965 01:51:02,520 --> 01:51:07,559 Speaker 2: schedule because Netflix has that Christmas date double header. Now 1966 01:51:07,880 --> 01:51:11,479 Speaker 2: apparently they're tightening up paying one hundred million dollars for 1967 01:51:11,560 --> 01:51:14,280 Speaker 2: two football games. And you know what, we're all you 1968 01:51:14,520 --> 01:51:20,240 Speaker 2: kidd me, what better captive audience? All right? I talked 1969 01:51:20,240 --> 01:51:21,599 Speaker 2: about this head the end of the break. We don't 1970 01:51:21,600 --> 01:51:23,920 Speaker 2: talk a hell of a lot of baseball. And you 1971 01:51:24,200 --> 01:51:28,320 Speaker 2: have may have noticed that the Baltimore Orioles Saturday night 1972 01:51:29,000 --> 01:51:33,160 Speaker 2: beat the Arizona Diamondbacks five to four. Ogles are good, man, 1973 01:51:33,200 --> 01:51:36,960 Speaker 2: They get the best record in the American League. What's 1974 01:51:37,000 --> 01:51:40,839 Speaker 2: the significance, Well, they're actually a significance. Now. It started 1975 01:51:41,800 --> 01:51:45,759 Speaker 2: the other night on Thursday, the Orioles beat the Washington 1976 01:51:45,880 --> 01:51:48,640 Speaker 2: Nationals seven to six. It took them twelve innings to 1977 01:51:48,720 --> 01:51:50,800 Speaker 2: do it. The game was a bit of a nail bier. 1978 01:51:51,920 --> 01:51:54,400 Speaker 2: What did it do? It extended one of the most 1979 01:51:54,439 --> 01:51:57,439 Speaker 2: incredible streaks in Major League Baseball history. For Yahoo Sports, 1980 01:51:58,479 --> 01:52:01,080 Speaker 2: the Orioles have now gone on one hundred and three 1981 01:52:01,360 --> 01:52:07,080 Speaker 2: consecutive regular season series without being swept. That is the 1982 01:52:07,280 --> 01:52:10,880 Speaker 2: longest streak in American League history, and the third longest 1983 01:52:10,960 --> 01:52:15,360 Speaker 2: ever only the nineteen forty four Cardinals, while actually was 1984 01:52:15,400 --> 01:52:18,679 Speaker 2: spanning over three seasons in three hundred and twenty two games, 1985 01:52:19,760 --> 01:52:24,360 Speaker 2: the nineteen forty four Cardinals own more. They actually won 1986 01:52:24,400 --> 01:52:30,120 Speaker 2: one hundred and twenty five straight series without being swept. Now, 1987 01:52:30,160 --> 01:52:35,679 Speaker 2: with the Orioles beating Arizona Saturday night, their consecutive regular 1988 01:52:35,720 --> 01:52:38,360 Speaker 2: season series without being swept, as not to one hundred 1989 01:52:38,360 --> 01:52:43,160 Speaker 2: and four. All right, but Baltimore, this is something that's 1990 01:52:43,160 --> 01:52:46,160 Speaker 2: been going on now since the weekend of May fifteenth, 1991 01:52:46,200 --> 01:52:48,080 Speaker 2: May thirteen to fifteen. It was in Detroit in twenty 1992 01:52:48,120 --> 01:52:52,080 Speaker 2: twenty two, the last time the Baltimore Orioles were swept 1993 01:52:52,120 --> 01:52:54,920 Speaker 2: in any series. We're talking three hundred and twenty two games, 1994 01:52:54,960 --> 01:52:59,840 Speaker 2: seven hundred and twenty five days now. The Orioles lost 1995 01:52:59,840 --> 01:53:04,439 Speaker 2: the opener against the Nationals Wednesday, but it was only 1996 01:53:04,520 --> 01:53:08,880 Speaker 2: a two game series, so if the Oils had lost 1997 01:53:09,200 --> 01:53:11,799 Speaker 2: Thursday to the Nationals, the streak would have been broken. 1998 01:53:12,520 --> 01:53:16,639 Speaker 2: There were one loss away from the sweep, but that's 1999 01:53:16,680 --> 01:53:18,960 Speaker 2: happened thirteen times where they had to win the final 2000 01:53:19,040 --> 01:53:21,280 Speaker 2: game of a series and then not only done out, 2001 01:53:21,280 --> 01:53:24,520 Speaker 2: they've done it with a forty two plus run differential. 2002 01:53:26,479 --> 01:53:29,080 Speaker 2: And as I said, the Oils beat the Diamondbacks. They're 2003 01:53:29,080 --> 01:53:32,280 Speaker 2: part of a three game series this weekend that concludes 2004 01:53:32,360 --> 01:53:36,760 Speaker 2: later on the day Sunday. But they're off the hook. 2005 01:53:36,760 --> 01:53:40,759 Speaker 2: They're already up to one hundred and four straight series. 2006 01:53:40,840 --> 01:53:44,639 Speaker 2: The Oils have not been swept. You think that's so easy. 2007 01:53:44,920 --> 01:53:48,240 Speaker 2: It ain't so easy. We're going back what fifty six, 2008 01:53:48,920 --> 01:53:54,200 Speaker 2: fifty eight, eighty two years, eighty two years last time 2009 01:53:54,280 --> 01:53:56,719 Speaker 2: this was done. Lots of teams have had the opportunity 2010 01:53:56,720 --> 01:54:01,120 Speaker 2: to do it. No one's done it. All right, I'm 2011 01:54:01,120 --> 01:54:03,639 Speaker 2: going to share something. These are the types of stories 2012 01:54:03,720 --> 01:54:07,240 Speaker 2: you hate to report. Very what I consider to be 2013 01:54:07,600 --> 01:54:11,320 Speaker 2: very very, very very sad news. You may or not 2014 01:54:11,520 --> 01:54:16,240 Speaker 2: remember major league or former Major leaguer by the name 2015 01:54:16,280 --> 01:54:21,320 Speaker 2: of Shawn Burroughs who played for the Arizona Diamondbacks. Shawn 2016 01:54:21,439 --> 01:54:26,040 Speaker 2: hailed from Long Beach, California, which is an absolute baseball 2017 01:54:26,160 --> 01:54:29,400 Speaker 2: hotbed in southern California. Trust me, I know, I grew 2018 01:54:29,479 --> 01:54:35,320 Speaker 2: up in Orange County. Shawn's father was Jeff Burrows. Jeff 2019 01:54:35,360 --> 01:54:40,120 Speaker 2: Burrows was the America League MVP in nineteen seventy four. 2020 01:54:41,200 --> 01:54:44,120 Speaker 2: And what I remember, frankly most about Shawn Burroughs more 2021 01:54:44,160 --> 01:54:50,320 Speaker 2: than anything else, is I relocated to Michigan in August 2022 01:54:50,400 --> 01:54:53,240 Speaker 2: of nineteen ninety three for an opportunity. I could not 2023 01:54:53,360 --> 01:54:57,280 Speaker 2: pass it up. It spent seventeen years there, and I 2024 01:54:57,440 --> 01:55:03,360 Speaker 2: remember watching the Little League World Series in nineteen ninety three, 2025 01:55:04,360 --> 01:55:08,520 Speaker 2: and Long Beach had advanced to the Little League World 2026 01:55:08,560 --> 01:55:12,200 Speaker 2: Series and they were led by a gentleman, a young 2027 01:55:12,240 --> 01:55:15,600 Speaker 2: twelve year old by the name of Sean Burrows. He 2028 01:55:15,680 --> 01:55:17,880 Speaker 2: was twelve years old at the time. He was, of 2029 01:55:18,000 --> 01:55:23,520 Speaker 2: course a big husky kid, and he's a legend. He's 2030 01:55:23,640 --> 01:55:26,560 Speaker 2: arguably the greatest Little League player of all time. I mean, 2031 01:55:26,600 --> 01:55:29,520 Speaker 2: we just get his numbers. He not only hit like crazy, 2032 01:55:30,680 --> 01:55:33,720 Speaker 2: but he pitched two games in the Little League World 2033 01:55:33,760 --> 01:55:37,160 Speaker 2: Series a total of twelve innings, didn't allow single hit, 2034 01:55:37,280 --> 01:55:40,080 Speaker 2: didn't allow single run, struck out thirty two guys in 2035 01:55:40,200 --> 01:55:46,160 Speaker 2: walk three. That's not bad. He also hit like four 2036 01:55:46,240 --> 01:55:48,640 Speaker 2: or five home runs and hit the cover off the 2037 01:55:48,720 --> 01:55:53,480 Speaker 2: ball too. Obviously, with his father's lineage and hard work, 2038 01:55:53,600 --> 01:55:59,440 Speaker 2: Sean Burrows went on to become the number nine overall 2039 01:55:59,560 --> 01:56:03,960 Speaker 2: pick by the San Diego Patres in nineteen ninety eight. 2040 01:56:04,520 --> 01:56:08,480 Speaker 2: Now I realized that Sean Burrows is probably maybe best 2041 01:56:08,560 --> 01:56:11,240 Speaker 2: known for his heroics at the League World Series. He 2042 01:56:11,240 --> 01:56:15,080 Speaker 2: helped Long Beach win the Little League title in consecutive years, 2043 01:56:15,160 --> 01:56:17,240 Speaker 2: ninety two and ninety three. I saw the ninety three 2044 01:56:18,080 --> 01:56:20,880 Speaker 2: Apparently they received the ninety two title after the Philippines 2045 01:56:20,920 --> 01:56:23,880 Speaker 2: team that won it was disqualified due to age violations, 2046 01:56:23,920 --> 01:56:27,000 Speaker 2: but I digress. Long Beach won the championship out right 2047 01:56:27,080 --> 01:56:31,160 Speaker 2: in nineteen ninety three. Burroughs pitched consecutive no hitters in 2048 01:56:31,240 --> 01:56:34,800 Speaker 2: the League World Series that year and was also Long 2049 01:56:34,880 --> 01:56:39,040 Speaker 2: Beach's best hitter. I mentioned that I think he might 2050 01:56:39,080 --> 01:56:41,720 Speaker 2: be the greatest Little League player of all time because, 2051 01:56:42,160 --> 01:56:44,280 Speaker 2: according to a story that was in the Long Beach 2052 01:56:44,480 --> 01:56:50,040 Speaker 2: Press Telegram, Sewn Burrows pitched three consecutive no hitters that 2053 01:56:50,160 --> 01:56:54,840 Speaker 2: postseason and also managed to bat over seven hundred was 2054 01:56:54,920 --> 01:56:58,320 Speaker 2: seventeen home runs. He didn't lose a game as a 2055 01:56:58,360 --> 01:57:01,800 Speaker 2: pitcher seventy four rainnings, struck out one hundred and seventy 2056 01:57:01,840 --> 01:57:04,600 Speaker 2: one batters. His EIRA was point four. By the way. 2057 01:57:04,680 --> 01:57:07,880 Speaker 2: Shawn Burrows also went on to be part of the 2058 01:57:08,480 --> 01:57:12,280 Speaker 2: two thousand US Olympic baseball team that won a gold 2059 01:57:12,360 --> 01:57:17,040 Speaker 2: medal in Sydney in Australia. I believe Tommy Masorta I 2060 01:57:17,160 --> 01:57:20,040 Speaker 2: might be right. I thought Tommy Misorta was the manager 2061 01:57:20,080 --> 01:57:21,840 Speaker 2: of that team that won the won the gold medal 2062 01:57:21,880 --> 01:57:25,960 Speaker 2: for the US Olympic team. Sean Burrows was the was 2063 01:57:26,400 --> 01:57:30,480 Speaker 2: a member of that as well. Played seven seasons in 2064 01:57:30,880 --> 01:57:34,280 Speaker 2: the major leagues between two thousand and two and twenty twelve, 2065 01:57:35,960 --> 01:57:39,320 Speaker 2: four seasons with the San Diego Padres, but also had 2066 01:57:39,320 --> 01:57:41,200 Speaker 2: a cup of coffee with the Tampa Bay Rays, and 2067 01:57:41,800 --> 01:57:45,240 Speaker 2: as I mentioned, the Arizona Diamondbacks and Minnesota Twins. Her 2068 01:57:45,320 --> 01:57:48,160 Speaker 2: career two to seventy eight hitter. That's not bad. Two 2069 01:57:48,240 --> 01:57:51,560 Speaker 2: time Little League World Series champ, Olympic champion, seven year 2070 01:57:51,680 --> 01:57:54,760 Speaker 2: Major leaguer. This is so sad, it really hurts. It 2071 01:57:55,000 --> 01:57:57,720 Speaker 2: just hurts to even talk about this. He was coaching 2072 01:57:57,760 --> 01:58:02,080 Speaker 2: his son during Little League he passed. I don't know 2073 01:58:02,200 --> 01:58:05,200 Speaker 2: the cause of death. It may have been a heart attack. 2074 01:58:05,280 --> 01:58:08,280 Speaker 2: I just don't know. Rust in peace, Sean Burrows and 2075 01:58:08,320 --> 01:58:11,280 Speaker 2: the Burrows family. This is really, really sad. I will 2076 01:58:11,320 --> 01:58:15,560 Speaker 2: always remember what a great prolific young player he was 2077 01:58:15,800 --> 01:58:19,000 Speaker 2: and got to national recognition at a very young age 2078 01:58:20,040 --> 01:58:23,360 Speaker 2: coming up the dance sensation sweeping the nation. What kind 2079 01:58:23,400 --> 01:58:25,640 Speaker 2: of brand new fool of you? Followed by what my name? 2080 01:58:25,960 --> 01:58:27,840 Speaker 2: Keep it locked right here.

Sometimes they are silly and innocuous 2096 01:59:18,040 --> 01:59:20,880 Speaker 2: and crazy, and other times are a little bit more serious. 2097 01:59:20,920 --> 01:59:24,000 Speaker 2: Other times are dangerous. Perhaps they might even be illegal 2098 01:59:24,120 --> 01:59:27,640 Speaker 2: and even land you in jail. But any way you 2099 01:59:27,760 --> 01:59:29,760 Speaker 2: slice it, any way you describe it, any way you 2100 01:59:29,920 --> 01:59:33,880 Speaker 2: characterize it, these are always behaviors that leave you scratching 2101 01:59:33,920 --> 01:59:36,800 Speaker 2: your head and asking yourself, what kind of brand new 2102 01:59:36,840 --> 01:59:40,080 Speaker 2: fool of you? I don't know how to begin this one, 2103 01:59:40,280 --> 01:59:44,480 Speaker 2: so I am just going to blurt it out because 2104 01:59:45,160 --> 01:59:48,560 Speaker 2: I am not calling out a single person here, I 2105 01:59:48,680 --> 01:59:53,320 Speaker 2: am calling out a whole group of people. It turns 2106 01:59:53,360 --> 01:59:57,800 Speaker 2: out a certain city is handing out bottles of beer, 2107 01:59:58,040 --> 02:00:04,080 Speaker 2: glasses of wine, shots of vivodka for free to homeless alcoholics, 2108 02:00:04,520 --> 02:00:08,240 Speaker 2: and it's costing as city five million dollars a year 2109 02:00:08,320 --> 02:00:13,000 Speaker 2: on the program. And interestingly enough, the alcoholic drinks are 2110 02:00:13,200 --> 02:00:16,480 Speaker 2: served by nurses as part of the cities quote managed 2111 02:00:16,560 --> 02:00:19,280 Speaker 2: Alcohol program, which I guess they've been running for a 2112 02:00:19,320 --> 02:00:21,880 Speaker 2: couple of years, and it's designed to curb the amount 2113 02:00:21,960 --> 02:00:26,040 Speaker 2: of alcohol that homeless people drink. So you curb the 2114 02:00:26,080 --> 02:00:28,640 Speaker 2: amount of alcohol a boy giving them more alcohol for free. Okay, 2115 02:00:29,280 --> 02:00:32,840 Speaker 2: I'm sure your attentions are good. I just don't get 2116 02:00:32,880 --> 02:00:36,840 Speaker 2: it now. Nurses have assessed that the patients, well, they'll 2117 02:00:36,880 --> 02:00:39,240 Speaker 2: typically serve about one to two drinks three or four 2118 02:00:39,280 --> 02:00:42,200 Speaker 2: times a day. A couple of ounces of vodka liquor 2119 02:00:42,240 --> 02:00:44,600 Speaker 2: about five ounces is bla ba ba ba bah, and 2120 02:00:44,800 --> 02:00:47,880 Speaker 2: experts in the program say it's actually helped to keep 2121 02:00:47,960 --> 02:00:53,360 Speaker 2: homeless alcoholics out of hospitals, out of jails, and even 2122 02:00:53,440 --> 02:00:58,120 Speaker 2: from dying. What am I missing? Apparently before the program 2123 02:00:58,280 --> 02:01:02,600 Speaker 2: was set up, drink alcohol to excess or among the 2124 02:01:02,720 --> 02:01:06,640 Speaker 2: highest users of the emergency services. But this program's doubled 2125 02:01:06,680 --> 02:01:08,960 Speaker 2: in size and it comes with a hell of a cost. 2126 02:01:09,360 --> 02:01:12,840 Speaker 2: The city is pouring money to the tune of five 2127 02:01:12,920 --> 02:01:16,680 Speaker 2: million dollars a year as nurses serve shots of vodka 2128 02:01:16,720 --> 02:01:20,000 Speaker 2: and beer several times a day based on certain health plans. 2129 02:01:21,200 --> 02:01:24,920 Speaker 2: I am mixed up. I am completely mixed up. It 2130 02:01:25,000 --> 02:01:31,040 Speaker 2: seems very confusing to me, because cities face homelessness, they 2131 02:01:31,120 --> 02:01:35,920 Speaker 2: face death from overdoses, and you know, I would say 2132 02:01:36,120 --> 02:01:40,840 Speaker 2: that there's got to be a side argument that giving 2133 02:01:40,920 --> 02:01:44,600 Speaker 2: free alcohol it makes the additions continue, the addictions continue worse, 2134 02:01:45,800 --> 02:01:50,120 Speaker 2: and you're spending taxpayer dollars to manage people's addictions that 2135 02:01:50,280 --> 02:01:52,000 Speaker 2: go on in perpetuity. I don't know if you can 2136 02:01:52,080 --> 02:01:56,440 Speaker 2: solve the problem. And I would just say this that 2137 02:01:56,760 --> 02:02:03,160 Speaker 2: that you know, you have to ask yourself if you're 2138 02:02:03,160 --> 02:02:05,720 Speaker 2: going to spend millions of dollars of tax paper money 2139 02:02:05,760 --> 02:02:07,680 Speaker 2: to give free alcohol to hold bless people that are 2140 02:02:07,720 --> 02:02:10,960 Speaker 2: already struggling with alcoholism, and all of a bit they 2141 02:02:11,000 --> 02:02:12,840 Speaker 2: gotta do is just walk in, grab a drink, and 2142 02:02:12,840 --> 02:02:14,200 Speaker 2: then another one. You can do it all day as 2143 02:02:14,280 --> 02:02:16,120 Speaker 2: much as you want. From what I understand, could be wrong, 2144 02:02:16,240 --> 02:02:21,320 Speaker 2: correct me, and so you know, I guess they manage it. 2145 02:02:21,520 --> 02:02:25,800 Speaker 2: Free booze, right, do you get a breath wiser to 2146 02:02:25,840 --> 02:02:29,400 Speaker 2: see if you've been drinking on your own? I listen, 2147 02:02:30,280 --> 02:02:32,320 Speaker 2: let me just say this. If you're gonna give free 2148 02:02:32,360 --> 02:02:35,320 Speaker 2: booze to alcoholics who are already homeless, and the problems 2149 02:02:35,320 --> 02:02:36,880 Speaker 2: we have in this country, and you're spending millions of 2150 02:02:36,880 --> 02:02:40,080 Speaker 2: dollars of taxpayer money the city of San Francisco, what 2151 02:02:40,240 --> 02:02:43,720 Speaker 2: kind of brand new fool you? With all due respect, 2152 02:02:44,160 --> 02:02:48,080 Speaker 2: maybe I'm missing something. Maybe you can correct me. Maybe 2153 02:02:49,240 --> 02:02:52,880 Speaker 2: I don't get it. Maybe it's helping. It just doesn't 2154 02:02:52,920 --> 02:02:55,440 Speaker 2: make sense to me. Told you this was gonna be 2155 02:02:55,440 --> 02:02:57,880 Speaker 2: a weird one, all right, my man Ian, try to 2156 02:02:57,920 --> 02:02:58,320 Speaker 2: follow that. 2157 02:03:00,520 --> 02:03:05,560 Speaker 10: Okay, let's see so for me, my fool that I'm 2158 02:03:05,560 --> 02:03:09,120 Speaker 10: bringing to the table today, our story starts in New Hampshire, Manchester, 2159 02:03:09,280 --> 02:03:14,120 Speaker 10: New Hampshire. Actually, and today's fool his name is Aiden Stutter. 2160 02:03:14,320 --> 02:03:16,600 Speaker 10: He's eighteen years old. Bernie, I think that might be 2161 02:03:16,720 --> 02:03:19,360 Speaker 10: our youngest fool to date. Oh boy, correct me if 2162 02:03:19,360 --> 02:03:21,240 Speaker 10: I'm wrong there, But I think that's I think that's 2163 02:03:21,320 --> 02:03:21,680 Speaker 10: the case. 2164 02:03:22,440 --> 02:03:23,960 Speaker 2: I'm not sure, so go ahead. 2165 02:03:24,080 --> 02:03:27,440 Speaker 10: Studter was hanging out at the local dairy field park 2166 02:03:27,560 --> 02:03:30,720 Speaker 10: in Manchester, New Hampshire, and he got into an argument 2167 02:03:30,800 --> 02:03:33,480 Speaker 10: with a mother outside of a porta potty of all places. 2168 02:03:34,480 --> 02:03:37,360 Speaker 10: Now it's unclear what they were arguing about, but it's 2169 02:03:37,400 --> 02:03:40,080 Speaker 10: been reported after the fact that they did not know 2170 02:03:40,200 --> 02:03:42,120 Speaker 10: each other beforehand, so it's not like this was his 2171 02:03:42,200 --> 02:03:45,080 Speaker 10: mom or something. This was just some random mother who 2172 02:03:45,160 --> 02:03:47,520 Speaker 10: was with her four year old daughter, and at the time, 2173 02:03:47,720 --> 02:03:49,760 Speaker 10: the four year old daughter was in the porta potty, 2174 02:03:49,880 --> 02:03:53,880 Speaker 10: you know, doing her thing, and the mom eventually cut 2175 02:03:53,920 --> 02:03:57,720 Speaker 10: the argument short with Stud and went into the porta 2176 02:03:57,760 --> 02:04:00,800 Speaker 10: potty to help her daughter. Now, Stud, the eighteen year old, 2177 02:04:01,560 --> 02:04:03,600 Speaker 10: he wasn't quite ready to put things to rest yet, 2178 02:04:03,760 --> 02:04:06,160 Speaker 10: so he went around the back of the porta potty 2179 02:04:06,800 --> 02:04:10,720 Speaker 10: and pushed it over, so the porta potty landed with 2180 02:04:10,800 --> 02:04:14,320 Speaker 10: the door face down, trapping the mother and daughter inside 2181 02:04:14,960 --> 02:04:17,680 Speaker 10: and covering them with you know, the contents of the 2182 02:04:17,760 --> 02:04:21,040 Speaker 10: porta potty. Luckily, they weren't trapped for too long, as 2183 02:04:21,080 --> 02:04:23,360 Speaker 10: some onlookers came to their aid, helping them out of 2184 02:04:23,400 --> 02:04:27,400 Speaker 10: the box. But studor reportedly ended his little tantrum by 2185 02:04:27,480 --> 02:04:31,360 Speaker 10: throwing a random object at police officers that were arriving 2186 02:04:31,400 --> 02:04:34,160 Speaker 10: at the scene. So he was obviously arrested and now 2187 02:04:34,240 --> 02:04:38,680 Speaker 10: faces some charges. So Aid and Stuoter, you're only eighteen, man, 2188 02:04:38,720 --> 02:04:39,760 Speaker 10: what kind of brand new fool? 2189 02:04:39,760 --> 02:04:45,320 Speaker 2: Are you?

But tonight you 2194 02:04:57,760 --> 02:04:59,800 Speaker 2: know a little different turn. I guess I have to 2195 02:05:00,320 --> 02:05:02,560 Speaker 2: ratcheted back up in future weeks so we can go 2196 02:05:02,720 --> 02:05:06,480 Speaker 2: back to having fun.

I know he had a cannon arm, 2220 02:06:21,880 --> 02:06:23,600 Speaker 2: but he didn't win games in college.

It's been a rule for thirty years. 2228 02:06:47,880 --> 02:06:51,360 Speaker 2: I am the last player coach in the NBA, Mark Ramsey, 2229 02:06:51,400 --> 02:06:51,920 Speaker 2: what my name? 2230 02:06:53,880 --> 02:06:54,720 Speaker 11: Magic Johnson? 2231 02:06:55,560 --> 02:06:58,160 Speaker 2: Not Magic Johnson, although Magic did coach in the nineties. 2232 02:06:58,200 --> 02:07:02,480 Speaker 2: Who wasn't a player coach though? All right, yes, it's 2233 02:07:02,560 --> 02:07:05,240 Speaker 2: true Lebron cannot be a head coach while he's a 2234 02:07:05,280 --> 02:07:08,360 Speaker 2: player in the National Basketball Association. That rule has been 2235 02:07:08,440 --> 02:07:12,000 Speaker 2: changed many years ago.

You will not believe what the 2378 02:14:47,040 --> 02:14:52,840 Speaker 2: Ohio State Athletic Director said about the Michigan Wolverines and 2379 02:14:53,360 --> 02:14:58,600 Speaker 2: their previous season and what should happen to all the 2380 02:14:58,720 --> 02:15:02,600 Speaker 2: wins they accumulate. You want to hear this. I'm Bernie 2381 02:15:02,600 --> 02:15:05,640 Speaker 2: FRADDLEI Comedy Live from the Las Vegas, Fox Sports Radio 2382 02:15:05,680 --> 02:15:08,760 Speaker 2: Diirect dot Com studios. Keep it locked. It's the Bernie 2383 02:15:08,760 --> 02:15:12,320 Speaker 2: Friddle Show on Fox Sports Radio. All right, back on 2384 02:15:12,400 --> 02:15:15,920 Speaker 2: The Bernie Fraddle Show, Fox Sports Radio Comedy live from 2385 02:15:15,960 --> 02:15:20,880 Speaker 2: the tire Act dot Com studios here in Las Vegas. 2386 02:15:22,040 --> 02:15:25,640 Speaker 2: Coming up after Dan's update Chris Purfett's World of Soccer. 2387 02:15:25,880 --> 02:15:30,600 Speaker 2: But first, I couldn't believe this when I saw this, 2388 02:15:30,800 --> 02:15:34,880 Speaker 2: but I guess, well, maybe I shouldn't be surprised. Ohio 2389 02:15:35,040 --> 02:15:39,960 Speaker 2: State athletic director Gene Smith is retiring this July, but 2390 02:15:40,040 --> 02:15:41,520 Speaker 2: I gotta tell you it's going out with a bang 2391 02:15:41,640 --> 02:15:44,600 Speaker 2: because he pulled no punches when he was on a 2392 02:15:44,760 --> 02:15:48,720 Speaker 2: radio show in Ohio and an NPR affiliate, and he 2393 02:15:48,880 --> 02:15:51,800 Speaker 2: was asked on this radio show. I believe the show 2394 02:15:51,960 --> 02:15:56,400 Speaker 2: was called All Sides with Anna Staver. He was asked 2395 02:15:56,480 --> 02:16:01,080 Speaker 2: if he thought Ohio State's athletic director thought that Michigan 2396 02:16:01,960 --> 02:16:07,080 Speaker 2: should have an asterisk over all of their football victories, 2397 02:16:10,400 --> 02:16:12,600 Speaker 2: that maybe it was just the football victories against Ohio 2398 02:16:12,760 --> 02:16:19,360 Speaker 2: State because of the Wolverines sign stealing scandal. His response, 2399 02:16:19,800 --> 02:16:22,880 Speaker 2: of course I do, and he started to expound on 2400 02:16:22,960 --> 02:16:26,600 Speaker 2: a view of the scandal, which I think people tried 2401 02:16:26,640 --> 02:16:29,360 Speaker 2: to really hang that over Michigan's twenty twenty three campaign, 2402 02:16:29,400 --> 02:16:32,160 Speaker 2: but I'm not sure if it's sticking. I don't think 2403 02:16:32,200 --> 02:16:35,240 Speaker 2: it is. But mister Smith went on to say, quote, 2404 02:16:35,760 --> 02:16:38,640 Speaker 2: the rules are in place to protect the integrity of 2405 02:16:38,680 --> 02:16:41,400 Speaker 2: the game and try your best to create a level 2406 02:16:41,440 --> 02:16:45,440 Speaker 2: playing field. When those rules are violated, then it affects 2407 02:16:45,520 --> 02:16:49,040 Speaker 2: those principles. We have to keep that in perspective. So 2408 02:16:49,160 --> 02:16:52,040 Speaker 2: I guess as I understand this a little bit more clearly, 2409 02:16:52,920 --> 02:16:55,240 Speaker 2: what he's referring to, what Jim is referring to is 2410 02:16:55,320 --> 02:16:59,920 Speaker 2: that the victories that Michigan has obtained over Ohio State 2411 02:17:00,760 --> 02:17:03,080 Speaker 2: in recent years should come with an asterisk because of 2412 02:17:03,120 --> 02:17:05,160 Speaker 2: the science steely skin, and the Michigan does have a 2413 02:17:05,760 --> 02:17:09,280 Speaker 2: three game winning streak over Ohio State. They beat the 2414 02:17:09,320 --> 02:17:11,640 Speaker 2: Buckeyes thirty to twenty four and an Arbor just this 2415 02:17:11,840 --> 02:17:16,680 Speaker 2: past year, the year before forty five twenty three in Columbus, 2416 02:17:16,720 --> 02:17:19,119 Speaker 2: and then they got off the schneid in twenty twenty 2417 02:17:19,160 --> 02:17:21,480 Speaker 2: one when they beat Ohio State forty seven to forty 2418 02:17:21,520 --> 02:17:24,560 Speaker 2: two and an Arbor that snapped an eight game streak 2419 02:17:24,959 --> 02:17:30,200 Speaker 2: that Ohio State had owned over Michigan. And let's not 2420 02:17:30,320 --> 02:17:33,760 Speaker 2: forget Jim Harbaugh lost to Ohio State in twenty fifteen, 2421 02:17:34,600 --> 02:17:42,680 Speaker 2: twenty sixteen, twenty seventeen, twenty eighteen, twenty nineteen, and I 2422 02:17:42,840 --> 02:17:45,880 Speaker 2: still think you could argue, and people might want to 2423 02:17:45,920 --> 02:17:48,080 Speaker 2: want to hear this that Michigan ducked Ohio State in 2424 02:17:48,160 --> 02:17:50,040 Speaker 2: twenty twenty. You might not want to hear that. But 2425 02:17:50,080 --> 02:17:52,280 Speaker 2: they didn't play the game, did they? So what does 2426 02:17:52,360 --> 02:17:56,280 Speaker 2: it matter? The bottom line is it seems like ancient 2427 02:17:56,360 --> 02:17:59,920 Speaker 2: history now, this big elaborate sign stealing scheme that was 2428 02:18:00,040 --> 02:18:04,800 Speaker 2: allegedly perpetrated by the infamous Connor Stallions. They got a 2429 02:18:04,840 --> 02:18:08,080 Speaker 2: three game suspension for Jim Harbaugh to close the regular season, 2430 02:18:08,120 --> 02:18:11,280 Speaker 2: but it has stopped the Wolverines. They kept right on rolling. 2431 02:18:11,640 --> 02:18:14,960 Speaker 2: And when they make you know, when they write the 2432 02:18:15,040 --> 02:18:18,800 Speaker 2: history books, they'll show Michigan is national champions and Aryan 2433 02:18:18,879 --> 02:18:22,879 Speaker 2: Morris taken over now for Jim Harball. Michigan put thirteen 2434 02:18:22,959 --> 02:18:26,800 Speaker 2: players in the NFL Draft and Harballs onto the Chargers 2435 02:18:26,840 --> 02:18:30,200 Speaker 2: now and heading into this coming season, the Wolverines are 2436 02:18:30,240 --> 02:18:33,920 Speaker 2: ranked twelve overall. I think Ohio State, by some poles 2437 02:18:34,000 --> 02:18:36,280 Speaker 2: might even be ranked number two or number one. So 2438 02:18:37,040 --> 02:18:41,200 Speaker 2: it'll be a good game regardless Michigan, Ohio State. It 2439 02:18:41,360 --> 02:18:43,480 Speaker 2: just always is the greatest rivalry of sports in my 2440 02:18:43,600 --> 02:18:45,440 Speaker 2: humble opinion, because it started with a land war one 2441 02:18:45,480 --> 02:18:49,160 Speaker 2: hundred years over hundred years ago.

There's 2485 02:20:56,320 --> 02:20:58,680 Speaker 2: always something. That's why we bring you this week every time. 2486 02:20:59,120 --> 02:21:00,480 Speaker 2: Chris purhfetz soccer. 2487 02:21:02,000 --> 02:21:12,520 Speaker 15: The greatest goals, the thrilling finishes, the international drum. 2488 02:21:15,520 --> 02:21:15,920 Speaker 13: I am. 2489 02:21:17,520 --> 02:21:17,720 Speaker 14: Fun. 2490 02:21:17,879 --> 02:21:21,640 Speaker 5: It's all here in this report from the world of soccer. 2491 02:21:21,879 --> 02:21:22,360 Speaker 7: So Bernie. 2492 02:21:22,400 --> 02:21:25,000 Speaker 8: As we all know, the Phoenix Suns have fired their 2493 02:21:25,080 --> 02:21:28,000 Speaker 8: head coach, Frank Vogel. Yes, this is a world of soccer. 2494 02:21:28,040 --> 02:21:30,520 Speaker 8: But let me recount a story for you, because I 2495 02:21:30,800 --> 02:21:33,720 Speaker 8: was asked by someone in the Fox Sports Radio Studios 2496 02:21:33,760 --> 02:21:37,480 Speaker 8: building about the idea that of how fast Frank Vogel 2497 02:21:37,520 --> 02:21:40,000 Speaker 8: got fired, how fast managers are now getting fired in 2498 02:21:40,080 --> 02:21:43,280 Speaker 8: the NBA. The question was posed to me knowing that 2499 02:21:43,440 --> 02:21:46,360 Speaker 8: I knew a lot about European soccer and there was 2500 02:21:46,480 --> 02:21:48,840 Speaker 8: kind of this idea that a lot of European soccer 2501 02:21:48,920 --> 02:21:51,680 Speaker 8: clubs do tend to run through their managers and. 2502 02:21:51,760 --> 02:21:54,359 Speaker 5: Coaches rather quickly. 2503 02:21:55,120 --> 02:21:57,440 Speaker 8: It is the symptom of a sport much like soccer, 2504 02:21:57,520 --> 02:22:01,680 Speaker 8: where the organizations may a lot of personnel decisions that 2505 02:22:01,920 --> 02:22:05,560 Speaker 8: carry a lot of heavy monetary value, and when those 2506 02:22:05,800 --> 02:22:08,400 Speaker 8: fail to reform, the easiest person to fire at the 2507 02:22:08,520 --> 02:22:11,440 Speaker 8: end of the day is the coach. Is the manager. 2508 02:22:11,640 --> 02:22:16,160 Speaker 8: It's usually the easiest fall guy. And even in Europe, 2509 02:22:16,520 --> 02:22:20,000 Speaker 8: the bar for getting fired can only be a rank 2510 02:22:20,120 --> 02:22:23,600 Speaker 8: few number of games where you're just off your game, 2511 02:22:23,720 --> 02:22:26,360 Speaker 8: the team looks listless, and before you know it, you're 2512 02:22:26,400 --> 02:22:30,240 Speaker 8: halfway into the season and the manager is getting sacked. 2513 02:22:31,000 --> 02:22:34,080 Speaker 8: Even the great ones like Jose Mourinho and Carlos and 2514 02:22:34,200 --> 02:22:37,240 Speaker 8: Silatti recognize that some of the best managers in the 2515 02:22:37,400 --> 02:22:42,000 Speaker 8: game right now have close to ten different I think 2516 02:22:42,040 --> 02:22:45,640 Speaker 8: it's like nine for Jose Mourinho jobs on their resume, 2517 02:22:45,720 --> 02:22:48,560 Speaker 8: because they just keep getting fired. Even the successful ones, 2518 02:22:48,600 --> 02:22:51,520 Speaker 8: they're lucky if they last three or four years. And 2519 02:22:51,640 --> 02:22:53,760 Speaker 8: if you want to see the idea of just getting 2520 02:22:53,800 --> 02:22:56,640 Speaker 8: fired within a single calendar year, look at the club 2521 02:22:56,879 --> 02:23:01,280 Speaker 8: Chelsea in England and how many managers they and through, 2522 02:23:01,520 --> 02:23:07,000 Speaker 8: especially under their former owner Roman Abramovich, who is very famous, 2523 02:23:07,320 --> 02:23:09,920 Speaker 8: to just fire managers at the drop of the hat. 2524 02:23:10,080 --> 02:23:13,440 Speaker 8: It's easy to do, It's an easy scapegoat, and the 2525 02:23:13,560 --> 02:23:16,400 Speaker 8: bar for the next guy in isn't very high. All 2526 02:23:16,440 --> 02:23:18,520 Speaker 8: you got to do is belt out like a three game, 2527 02:23:19,120 --> 02:23:22,280 Speaker 8: three match win streaker, so people will suddenly start to 2528 02:23:22,320 --> 02:23:25,480 Speaker 8: love you until that next offseason rolls around, and until 2529 02:23:25,520 --> 02:23:27,959 Speaker 8: that next season hits, and suddenly the. 2530 02:23:28,000 --> 02:23:30,760 Speaker 5: Bar is reset and you could be out the door 2531 02:23:31,480 --> 02:23:32,760 Speaker 5: very quick yourself. 2532 02:23:33,200 --> 02:23:35,200 Speaker 8: To be honest, I don't know how healthy it is 2533 02:23:35,720 --> 02:23:38,480 Speaker 8: if a manager or a coach can never settle in 2534 02:23:38,920 --> 02:23:41,800 Speaker 8: in a given spot. How healthy it is that any 2535 02:23:41,879 --> 02:23:47,560 Speaker 8: given playoff series or European tournament or five game match 2536 02:23:47,640 --> 02:23:50,680 Speaker 8: stretch suddenly can determine the fate of your organization. There 2537 02:23:50,760 --> 02:23:52,800 Speaker 8: is something to be said about stability, and if that 2538 02:23:52,879 --> 02:23:56,280 Speaker 8: stability is being deprived, then I don't know what we 2539 02:23:56,400 --> 02:23:59,040 Speaker 8: really do. And I worry for the NBA as much 2540 02:23:59,040 --> 02:24:02,160 Speaker 8: as I worry for soccer. Sometimes in that regard, we 2541 02:24:02,320 --> 02:24:06,760 Speaker 8: do have a set final for the UEFA Champions League 2542 02:24:06,840 --> 02:24:09,560 Speaker 8: and some big news from a player. First off, though, 2543 02:24:09,600 --> 02:24:13,800 Speaker 8: congratulations to Bayer Laferkusen. They've already sewn up the Bundesliga title. 2544 02:24:14,160 --> 02:24:18,279 Speaker 8: They now have a forty nine match unbeaten streak, drawing 2545 02:24:18,360 --> 02:24:21,360 Speaker 8: two to two with Roma and securing their place four 2546 02:24:21,400 --> 02:24:24,120 Speaker 8: to two on aggregate could go to the Europa League 2547 02:24:24,360 --> 02:24:27,560 Speaker 8: finals in Yuwefa, which is the second tier. So I 2548 02:24:27,640 --> 02:24:30,520 Speaker 8: want to shout out them. Leverkusen is having a season 2549 02:24:30,640 --> 02:24:33,760 Speaker 8: for the ages in Germany. But yes, this past week 2550 02:24:33,840 --> 02:24:39,039 Speaker 8: we had the finals punched, and let's start with football royalty. 2551 02:24:39,160 --> 02:24:43,160 Speaker 8: Let's start with Real Madrid. Real Madrid and Bayern Munich 2552 02:24:43,240 --> 02:24:46,160 Speaker 8: both came into this game drawn even on aggregate. 2553 02:24:46,280 --> 02:24:49,240 Speaker 5: This was the winner take all game and with an e. 2554 02:24:49,520 --> 02:24:54,040 Speaker 8: With a goal shortly after halftime by Alfonso Davies I 2555 02:24:54,160 --> 02:24:56,680 Speaker 8: believe in the sixty eighth minuters, so it looked like 2556 02:24:56,879 --> 02:24:59,879 Speaker 8: Munich was going to be coasting even steven On here 2557 02:25:00,640 --> 02:25:03,400 Speaker 8: a chance to play for Champions League crown even if 2558 02:25:03,480 --> 02:25:08,480 Speaker 8: their Bundesliga crown is denied. But instead, somehow an explosion 2559 02:25:08,680 --> 02:25:13,080 Speaker 8: from Real Madrid as joselu came out and scored two 2560 02:25:13,240 --> 02:25:16,240 Speaker 8: goals late in this game, firstly eighty eighth minute to 2561 02:25:16,320 --> 02:25:19,040 Speaker 8: draw even and then in stoppage time in about the 2562 02:25:19,200 --> 02:25:23,160 Speaker 8: ninety first minute, another strike, sending the Germans home and 2563 02:25:23,240 --> 02:25:27,600 Speaker 8: propelling Real Madrid to yet another Champions League final. These 2564 02:25:27,640 --> 02:25:29,920 Speaker 8: are the only things you kind of expect with Real Madrid, 2565 02:25:30,280 --> 02:25:32,800 Speaker 8: and to be honest, it is a choke job for 2566 02:25:32,879 --> 02:25:36,480 Speaker 8: the ages for Bayern Munich and their newly acquired Harry Kane, 2567 02:25:36,840 --> 02:25:41,000 Speaker 8: who just some really ticki tak defense really being played 2568 02:25:41,040 --> 02:25:45,200 Speaker 8: there to chance to have the bus part home and 2569 02:25:45,240 --> 02:25:47,600 Speaker 8: they just let it go, just let it go. You 2570 02:25:47,720 --> 02:25:51,840 Speaker 8: hate to see it. But while Bayern Munich disappointed for Germany, 2571 02:25:52,120 --> 02:25:56,400 Speaker 8: Borussia Dortmund joined their fellows at Leverkusen in bringing home 2572 02:25:56,440 --> 02:26:00,480 Speaker 8: some German glory. Now Borussia had a one goal aggregate 2573 02:26:00,600 --> 02:26:04,240 Speaker 8: head on Paris Saint Germain, but this game was going 2574 02:26:04,320 --> 02:26:06,360 Speaker 8: to be played in Paris. This seemed like a last 2575 02:26:06,520 --> 02:26:09,360 Speaker 8: gasp for a club that has been trying for so 2576 02:26:09,600 --> 02:26:12,760 Speaker 8: long to go for European glory, and it just was 2577 02:26:12,879 --> 02:26:15,600 Speaker 8: not to be. Paris Saint Germaine looked listless out there. 2578 02:26:15,920 --> 02:26:17,880 Speaker 8: They didn't look like they knew what they were doing. 2579 02:26:18,480 --> 02:26:22,240 Speaker 8: A single goal by Matshomels for the Germans made sure 2580 02:26:22,440 --> 02:26:27,080 Speaker 8: on aggregate to nil Barussia Dortmund advancing to play Real 2581 02:26:27,240 --> 02:26:30,080 Speaker 8: Madrid here. And if you think you had a long 2582 02:26:30,160 --> 02:26:34,400 Speaker 8: wait between the week off between the Championship weekend and 2583 02:26:34,520 --> 02:26:37,240 Speaker 8: the Super Bowl, we have to now wait until June 2584 02:26:37,400 --> 02:26:42,120 Speaker 8: first at Wembley Stadium, where Real Madrid and Barussia Dortmund 2585 02:26:42,440 --> 02:26:46,480 Speaker 8: will square off. However, it is a is a feast 2586 02:26:46,600 --> 02:26:48,800 Speaker 8: for the eyes. We'll be talking about this in the 2587 02:26:48,879 --> 02:26:52,360 Speaker 8: months to come. Barussia is a fascinating, fascinating squad.

And you 2658 02:30:22,480 --> 02:30:24,880 Speaker 13: know what, this may be the biggest surprise in the 2659 02:30:25,040 --> 02:30:27,840 Speaker 13: NBA this year. Jalen Brunson has become a superstar right 2660 02:30:27,879 --> 02:30:28,640 Speaker 13: now in this series. 2661 02:30:28,680 --> 02:30:29,160 Speaker 2: It really is. 2662 02:30:29,320 --> 02:30:30,520 Speaker 5: He's the hero of New York. 2663 02:30:30,800 --> 02:30:32,360 Speaker 13: And you know what, I got to believe that other 2664 02:30:32,400 --> 02:30:34,400 Speaker 13: teams right now are going crazy because I think he 2665 02:30:34,520 --> 02:30:37,920 Speaker 13: was overlooked. This guy won two NCAA titles at Villanova, 2666 02:30:38,280 --> 02:30:40,600 Speaker 13: and now he's teamed up with his Villanova mates. He 2667 02:30:40,680 --> 02:30:42,720 Speaker 13: really is in New York City. And I tell you what, 2668 02:30:42,840 --> 02:30:45,840 Speaker 13: I'm really happy that coach Tibbs is getting the credit. 2669 02:30:45,959 --> 02:30:48,320 Speaker 13: Or maybe he's not, but in my mind he is. 2670 02:30:48,360 --> 02:30:51,720 Speaker 13: He's getting the credit he so desperately deserves. He's a 2671 02:30:51,800 --> 02:30:53,879 Speaker 13: hell of a coach. A lot of players didn't want 2672 02:30:53,879 --> 02:30:56,160 Speaker 13: to play for this guy. He's done a whale of 2673 02:30:56,240 --> 02:30:59,360 Speaker 13: a job. Remember what was it back in twenty nineteen, 2674 02:30:59,600 --> 02:31:02,360 Speaker 13: they had to worst record in the NBA, the Knicks, right, 2675 02:31:02,480 --> 02:31:04,359 Speaker 13: and then now they're back in contention. 2676 02:31:04,520 --> 02:31:06,080 Speaker 5: They could go to the finals. 2677 02:31:07,000 --> 02:31:10,359 Speaker 2: I'm with you and hopefully they get og on Anobi 2678 02:31:10,760 --> 02:31:12,720 Speaker 2: soon and they don't break down because I love this 2679 02:31:12,800 --> 02:31:15,720 Speaker 2: team culture. And you're right on about Tibbs. Remember back 2680 02:31:15,760 --> 02:31:18,879 Speaker 2: in our wait it was his defensive scheme that enabled 2681 02:31:18,920 --> 02:31:22,680 Speaker 2: the Boston Celtics to win that championship. It was Tom Thibodeau. 2682 02:31:23,440 --> 02:31:25,959 Speaker 2: So I'm with you. If they can give an effort, 2683 02:31:26,240 --> 02:31:29,360 Speaker 2: if they don't fall apart, they're better than Indiana. It's 2684 02:31:29,480 --> 02:31:31,760 Speaker 2: just a shame they're not healthy, all right, one of 2685 02:31:31,800 --> 02:31:32,440 Speaker 2: the big names. 2686 02:31:32,280 --> 02:31:34,840 Speaker 13: And the hell would Rick Carlisle with his whining and 2687 02:31:34,920 --> 02:31:38,360 Speaker 13: crime ass. So you know, play the game and just forget. 2688 02:31:38,440 --> 02:31:40,840 Speaker 13: People don't want to hear that, you know what. I'm 2689 02:31:40,879 --> 02:31:44,119 Speaker 13: sure the team, his team is embarrassed for him. I'm 2690 02:31:44,200 --> 02:31:46,360 Speaker 13: sure that they're embarrassed. 2691 02:31:46,440 --> 02:31:48,840 Speaker 2: Filing a complaint? What seventy eight miscalls? 2692 02:31:48,879 --> 02:31:49,160 Speaker 12: Andy? 2693 02:31:49,360 --> 02:31:51,960 Speaker 2: They count up? What seventy eight? Agreed? You saw that 2694 02:31:52,040 --> 02:31:53,360 Speaker 2: report earlier? Yeah, what died he do? 2695 02:31:53,440 --> 02:31:55,440 Speaker 5: He called the league office? I mean, come on, really, 2696 02:31:56,080 --> 02:31:56,480 Speaker 5: let it go. 2697 02:31:57,080 --> 02:31:59,920 Speaker 2: Well, I was in Detroit when he was unceremonious fire 2698 02:32:00,080 --> 02:32:03,200 Speaker 2: by Bill Davidson for reasons I won't go into on 2699 02:32:03,320 --> 02:32:04,800 Speaker 2: the air. And of course he was presiding. He was 2700 02:32:04,840 --> 02:32:08,039 Speaker 2: on the sideline during the Malice of the Palace November nineteen, 2701 02:32:08,080 --> 02:32:09,640 Speaker 2: two thousand and four, were coming up on the twenty 2702 02:32:09,680 --> 02:32:11,680 Speaker 2: year anniversary. I was there that night, my friend. We 2703 02:32:11,760 --> 02:32:14,840 Speaker 2: were doing a radio remote. But I want to get 2704 02:32:14,879 --> 02:32:18,520 Speaker 2: to the other news that Tom Brady roast was quite 2705 02:32:18,600 --> 02:32:23,039 Speaker 2: the incident or quite the event. Excuse me, most people 2706 02:32:23,160 --> 02:32:25,760 Speaker 2: loved it, not everybody did. You should read what Sally 2707 02:32:25,920 --> 02:32:30,040 Speaker 2: Jenkins wrote about in the Washington Post in New York Post, Andy, 2708 02:32:30,320 --> 02:32:31,960 Speaker 2: what were your thoughts on him? Who would you like 2709 02:32:32,080 --> 02:32:33,560 Speaker 2: to see roasted. 2710 02:32:33,720 --> 02:32:38,840 Speaker 13: Next you you I did the Bernie Fotto roast.

I watched 2712 02:32:40,959 --> 02:32:43,440 Speaker 13: it because of all the hubbub, all the buzz surrounding 2713 02:32:43,520 --> 02:32:45,640 Speaker 13: that roast. I watched it, to be honest with you, 2714 02:32:46,480 --> 02:32:49,160 Speaker 13: the furthest thing you'd call a prude. I am not approved. 2715 02:32:49,400 --> 02:32:52,720 Speaker 13: But I don't find dropping the F bomb every other 2716 02:32:52,800 --> 02:32:55,720 Speaker 13: word funny. I don't find that funny.

I mean, and people probably paid 2723 02:33:13,640 --> 02:33:15,640 Speaker 13: big money for this. You know who I was embarrassed for. 2724 02:33:15,920 --> 02:33:18,760 Speaker 13: Not only Tom Brady.

I think it's the roast d's that are important. 2747 02:34:24,720 --> 02:34:29,160 Speaker 13: I mean, I wasn't impressed whatsoever about the band of roasters. 2748 02:34:29,320 --> 02:34:32,880 Speaker 5: I mean I saw was it.
