I would like to go ahead 23 00:01:18,120 --> 00:01:22,039 Speaker 3: and apologize right off the top, because as much as 24 00:01:22,040 --> 00:01:27,400 Speaker 3: I love hockey, I'm very much a casual fan. So 25 00:01:28,360 --> 00:01:33,240 Speaker 3: these these massive amounts of people on my Twitter timeline 26 00:01:33,680 --> 00:01:40,480 Speaker 3: who were suddenly experts in the world of interference instruction, 27 00:01:40,640 --> 00:01:43,120 Speaker 3: whatever term you want to use here in hockey, I 28 00:01:43,319 --> 00:01:48,680 Speaker 3: cannot fake until I make in this beloved sport. So 29 00:01:48,840 --> 00:01:53,200 Speaker 3: the Stars are off to the Western Finals. They will 30 00:01:53,200 --> 00:01:56,520 Speaker 3: await the winner of tomorrow's Game six, or at the 31 00:01:56,600 --> 00:02:02,000 Speaker 3: very least, potentially Vancouver if they win tomorrow, or the 32 00:02:02,120 --> 00:02:07,000 Speaker 3: Edmonton Oilers who eliminated my remaining care in the world 33 00:02:07,000 --> 00:02:10,200 Speaker 3: of hockey, the Los Angeles Kings.

I feel like 43 00:02:41,200 --> 00:02:44,400 Speaker 3: throughout the show tonight. Tonight, it's a little bit more 44 00:02:44,400 --> 00:02:46,600 Speaker 3: of a sprint because we've only got three hours. Tomorrow 45 00:02:46,680 --> 00:02:49,840 Speaker 3: is the four hour marathon. I will be giving you 46 00:02:49,880 --> 00:02:52,320 Speaker 3: a lot of what is very much frowned upon in 47 00:02:52,360 --> 00:02:58,359 Speaker 3: the business, the twenty four hour teas because honestly, having Kfig, 48 00:02:58,520 --> 00:03:02,120 Speaker 3: having Ian and to help us out tonight, I've got 49 00:03:02,160 --> 00:03:05,839 Speaker 3: someone to carry me tomorrow, just Mark and I. Right, 50 00:03:05,880 --> 00:03:07,920 Speaker 3: be well, no, Ian, you're back tomorrow night. Right, you 51 00:03:07,960 --> 00:03:11,200 Speaker 3: do both tonight and tomorrow night. That's right. Yeah, Look, 52 00:03:11,800 --> 00:03:15,360 Speaker 3: I've got help. But there's a lot of there's a 53 00:03:15,360 --> 00:03:17,040 Speaker 3: lot of things I really want to get in the 54 00:03:17,040 --> 00:03:19,400 Speaker 3: weeds on, and I feel like with a Scottie Shuffler story, 55 00:03:20,400 --> 00:03:25,160 Speaker 3: those can wait twenty four hours. Like I absolutely nerded 56 00:03:25,160 --> 00:03:30,640 Speaker 3: out this week with the NFL schedule, but I didn't realize. 57 00:03:30,760 --> 00:03:33,840 Speaker 3: I didn't realize how much I had kind of dorked 58 00:03:33,880 --> 00:03:36,280 Speaker 3: out on it until I'm sitting here before the show 59 00:03:36,320 --> 00:03:41,160 Speaker 3: starts tonight and I'm listening to a former Fox Sports 60 00:03:41,240 --> 00:03:44,920 Speaker 3: radio host now NFL schedule maker, Mike and North. It's two 61 00:03:44,960 --> 00:03:47,240 Speaker 3: different people, So I'm just kidding. When I heard Mike 62 00:03:47,320 --> 00:03:51,520 Speaker 3: North with Peter Schrager and I'm listening to their podcast 63 00:03:51,600 --> 00:03:54,520 Speaker 3: and I'm thinking to myself, this is great stuff. Added 64 00:03:54,600 --> 00:03:56,760 Speaker 3: it down, get my four cuts, and then I stopped 65 00:03:56,800 --> 00:04:01,440 Speaker 3: and thought, it's really in the weeds. In other words, 66 00:04:01,560 --> 00:04:05,080 Speaker 3: Ravens fan, I'm sure is a little bit ticked to 67 00:04:05,160 --> 00:04:07,320 Speaker 3: have their team on the road back to back years 68 00:04:07,600 --> 00:04:12,280 Speaker 3: for Christmas. But are you really ticked? Do you really 69 00:04:12,320 --> 00:04:16,719 Speaker 3: care for the players? It sucks kind of like that 70 00:04:16,760 --> 00:04:20,480 Speaker 3: concussion conversation. Everyone wants to act like they care about 71 00:04:20,520 --> 00:04:24,200 Speaker 3: concussion and player safety until it's their star player who 72 00:04:24,279 --> 00:04:27,720 Speaker 3: is having concussion like symptoms and might not play. Then 73 00:04:27,720 --> 00:04:29,919 Speaker 3: all of a sudden, you're like, uh, get out there, 74 00:04:30,200 --> 00:04:33,240 Speaker 3: what are you doing. It's a concussion. Go rub some 75 00:04:33,279 --> 00:04:37,240 Speaker 3: dirt on it. But you know, twenty four hours early, 76 00:04:37,480 --> 00:04:39,200 Speaker 3: be like, we really got to care about the future 77 00:04:39,240 --> 00:04:44,200 Speaker 3: for our players. Can take concussion seriously. You care about 78 00:04:44,240 --> 00:04:48,479 Speaker 3: scheduling when it affects your team, but you get a 79 00:04:48,560 --> 00:04:52,960 Speaker 3: chance to watch your team play national holiday daily, Christmas 80 00:04:53,200 --> 00:04:54,920 Speaker 3: cares if they're on the road, right or not right, 81 00:04:55,120 --> 00:04:58,600 Speaker 3: It's more about the players. I was I was mythed 82 00:04:58,680 --> 00:05:01,839 Speaker 3: about the renewed amitment to the Jets this year. I 83 00:05:01,839 --> 00:05:05,760 Speaker 3: don't I mean I assume everything's going to be okay 84 00:05:05,800 --> 00:05:08,160 Speaker 3: with Aaron Rodgers, and I assume that he's going to 85 00:05:08,200 --> 00:05:10,120 Speaker 3: be able to stay healthy. But I don't really know 86 00:05:10,160 --> 00:05:13,280 Speaker 3: if we know that for certain, right, But that sure 87 00:05:13,279 --> 00:05:16,120 Speaker 3: as heck didn't stop the schedule makers from putting the 88 00:05:16,200 --> 00:05:19,200 Speaker 3: Jets in a primetime slot as much as anyone. I 89 00:05:19,200 --> 00:05:22,880 Speaker 3: think they have what seven seven standalone games the Jets. 90 00:05:23,279 --> 00:05:26,240 Speaker 3: It's quite a gamble. But then I also kind of 91 00:05:26,240 --> 00:05:31,080 Speaker 3: stopped and realized, in the end, all these talks about 92 00:05:31,440 --> 00:05:36,080 Speaker 3: nuances and why and the whole how the sausage is made, 93 00:05:37,160 --> 00:05:39,880 Speaker 3: does it really affect too much? Does it really change 94 00:05:39,960 --> 00:05:42,600 Speaker 3: much at all? So there is a twenty four hour 95 00:05:42,720 --> 00:05:46,320 Speaker 3: tease to say, man, I am all in on the 96 00:05:46,440 --> 00:05:50,120 Speaker 3: NFL schedule and the sausage making process to it. And 97 00:05:50,120 --> 00:05:54,040 Speaker 3: then number one number two, I don't know of things 98 00:05:54,040 --> 00:05:56,640 Speaker 3: that we probably won't get into as much as I 99 00:05:56,680 --> 00:05:59,280 Speaker 3: want to tonight, but we're definitely going to tomorrow. 100 00:06:00,040 --> 00:06:02,680 Speaker 2: I don't know why I am so. 101 00:06:03,200 --> 00:06:05,640 Speaker 3: Enamored with what the NBA is going to do with 102 00:06:05,640 --> 00:06:11,320 Speaker 3: its TV rights, And I guess there's a part of 103 00:06:11,320 --> 00:06:17,280 Speaker 3: me that understands the battle because there's so much that 104 00:06:18,440 --> 00:06:20,760 Speaker 3: live sports is killing. I mean, it's just crushing right 105 00:06:20,760 --> 00:06:24,279 Speaker 3: now in TV ratings, but in that the NBA is not. 106 00:06:25,520 --> 00:06:28,680 Speaker 3: The NBA, though, has probably some of the most promising 107 00:06:28,880 --> 00:06:34,400 Speaker 3: stars for the future. Anthony Edwards incredibly promising, right exciting 108 00:06:34,440 --> 00:06:39,120 Speaker 3: atmospheres in Minnesota. I mean, he's out there talking gas 109 00:06:39,120 --> 00:06:41,840 Speaker 3: about letting security people know that he was going to 110 00:06:41,880 --> 00:06:45,520 Speaker 3: be back and Denver for Game seven. It's fun to see. 111 00:06:45,680 --> 00:06:48,000 Speaker 3: It's fun to see the thunder and I get it. 112 00:06:48,040 --> 00:06:50,440 Speaker 3: You know, I'm in Oklahoma, so I might be a 113 00:06:50,480 --> 00:06:53,279 Speaker 3: little bit more biased towards thinking this is a really 114 00:06:53,320 --> 00:06:57,800 Speaker 3: cool core some of your stars or are given it 115 00:06:57,920 --> 00:07:01,640 Speaker 3: one last go Durant and Phoenix. I mean, it's crazy 116 00:07:01,680 --> 00:07:04,119 Speaker 3: to think that he's as old as he is now, 117 00:07:04,520 --> 00:07:07,719 Speaker 3: Lebron maybe playing with his son, even though Bron he's 118 00:07:07,720 --> 00:07:10,600 Speaker 3: not necessarily lighting up the pre draft process. 119 00:07:10,800 --> 00:07:11,679 Speaker 2: I mean, there's a lot. 120 00:07:11,480 --> 00:07:16,160 Speaker 3: Of cool storylines, but it's not really resonating. And yet 121 00:07:16,760 --> 00:07:21,440 Speaker 3: you have suitors apparently lining up to throw ridiculous amounts 122 00:07:21,480 --> 00:07:25,280 Speaker 3: of money at the NBA. I'm fascinated by that. Probably 123 00:07:25,320 --> 00:07:27,320 Speaker 3: something we won't go as in depth on now because 124 00:07:27,320 --> 00:07:30,760 Speaker 3: we have what we have games and then third and 125 00:07:31,080 --> 00:07:35,400 Speaker 3: maybe what leads us right into our biggest story of 126 00:07:35,400 --> 00:07:39,760 Speaker 3: the day, the biggest topic of conversations across the sports world. 127 00:07:40,760 --> 00:07:46,840 Speaker 3: Have we reached this point with Tiger Woods where someone 128 00:07:46,840 --> 00:07:50,200 Speaker 3: needs to sit down and say, I think it's time 129 00:07:50,240 --> 00:07:53,680 Speaker 3: for a ceremonial t shot, maybe showing up in a 130 00:07:53,720 --> 00:07:56,880 Speaker 3: few of our fun TV events again, but you got 131 00:07:56,880 --> 00:08:00,920 Speaker 3: to stop playing in these majors, Tiger. We spend so 132 00:08:01,000 --> 00:08:04,920 Speaker 3: much time on debate shows in the world of sports, 133 00:08:06,080 --> 00:08:09,880 Speaker 3: enamored with guys' legacies. Now I want to pull back here, 134 00:08:10,240 --> 00:08:12,640 Speaker 3: I think for the moment, and I hate it. I 135 00:08:12,760 --> 00:08:16,040 Speaker 3: absolutely hate it because I don't think you can really 136 00:08:16,080 --> 00:08:21,320 Speaker 3: truly gauge someone's legacy until their career is over. It's 137 00:08:21,480 --> 00:08:25,520 Speaker 3: it's done, it's over. Let's look back. I don't think 138 00:08:25,600 --> 00:08:31,000 Speaker 3: anything can ever tarnish or taint Tiger woods legacy. It's 139 00:08:31,440 --> 00:08:39,480 Speaker 3: one of the greatest golf careers ever. But are we 140 00:08:39,600 --> 00:08:42,960 Speaker 3: reaching that point where it's going to be tagged with 141 00:08:44,320 --> 00:08:46,920 Speaker 3: But my man just kept going out there for too long. 142 00:08:47,960 --> 00:08:49,199 Speaker 2: I say that as. 143 00:08:49,040 --> 00:08:53,760 Speaker 3: Somebody who firmly would lose their ever love and mind 144 00:08:53,920 --> 00:08:56,960 Speaker 3: as a super fan of Tiger Woods if he was 145 00:08:57,000 --> 00:08:59,719 Speaker 3: in the mix again and go back what was it 146 00:08:59,760 --> 00:09:04,240 Speaker 3: the mass in twenty nineteen when he made his run eight. 147 00:09:04,360 --> 00:09:08,760 Speaker 3: I mean, we're not going back ten years, but in 148 00:09:08,840 --> 00:09:14,040 Speaker 3: that stretch since he's won anything substantive, it's been terrible. Man. 149 00:09:15,000 --> 00:09:20,280 Speaker 3: So these are nerdy stories concerning stories I think for 150 00:09:20,400 --> 00:09:21,920 Speaker 3: me in the golf world that. 151 00:09:21,880 --> 00:09:23,160 Speaker 2: I'm ready to go all in on. 152 00:09:24,840 --> 00:09:26,640 Speaker 3: But then Scotty Scheffler had to go out and get 153 00:09:26,720 --> 00:09:30,319 Speaker 3: arrested on his way into the to the PGA Championship 154 00:09:30,360 --> 00:09:34,360 Speaker 3: today and it kind of ruined all of our tidbits 155 00:09:34,360 --> 00:09:37,840 Speaker 3: and nuggets for the show here this morning.

Now, before we recap Game 175 00:10:40,679 --> 00:10:42,920 Speaker 3: six of the Pacers Nicks coming up on our next segment, 176 00:10:43,400 --> 00:10:47,520 Speaker 3: and before we talk about a busy Sunday of Game 177 00:10:47,600 --> 00:10:50,600 Speaker 3: sevens already in the NBA, let's get into the biggest 178 00:10:50,600 --> 00:10:53,640 Speaker 3: story of the day. Let's get into Scottie Scheffler. It 179 00:10:53,679 --> 00:10:57,360 Speaker 3: has been not quite twenty four hours since this news 180 00:10:57,480 --> 00:11:02,120 Speaker 3: took over the sports world, and I got admit, it's 181 00:11:02,160 --> 00:11:04,160 Speaker 3: one of the wildest things I've ever seen. I was 182 00:11:04,200 --> 00:11:05,959 Speaker 3: trying to come up with a list, guys before the 183 00:11:06,000 --> 00:11:10,880 Speaker 3: show started, and the question was simple, and I need 184 00:11:10,880 --> 00:11:13,040 Speaker 3: your submission tonight. If it's on Twitter, that'd be the 185 00:11:13,040 --> 00:11:15,199 Speaker 3: best way to do it. At Plank Show. That's at 186 00:11:15,200 --> 00:11:22,280 Speaker 3: Plank Show. But is this, you know, weird, strange whatever 187 00:11:22,320 --> 00:11:24,280 Speaker 3: way you want to look at it, But is this 188 00:11:24,520 --> 00:11:30,560 Speaker 3: the weirdest story we've had in a long time in sports? 189 00:11:31,559 --> 00:11:33,559 Speaker 3: In other words, if I were to do a depth 190 00:11:33,600 --> 00:11:37,680 Speaker 3: chart of the weirdest stories that we followed in sports, 191 00:11:38,000 --> 00:11:42,560 Speaker 3: I started doing something very in depth in my research 192 00:11:42,640 --> 00:11:44,960 Speaker 3: for the program tonight. Guys, this is some serious stuff, 193 00:11:45,000 --> 00:11:48,640 Speaker 3: all right. I went in depth to answer this question. 194 00:11:49,160 --> 00:11:55,800 Speaker 3: I simply googled weirdest stories in sports history. Scotti Scheffer 195 00:11:55,840 --> 00:11:58,840 Speaker 3: wasn't quite there yet. But think think about everything in 196 00:11:58,880 --> 00:12:03,120 Speaker 3: this all right. Number One, he's the number one golfer 197 00:12:03,160 --> 00:12:06,800 Speaker 3: in the world, in the world, I mean, just one 198 00:12:06,800 --> 00:12:11,320 Speaker 3: of the masters. Number two, It is a situation that 199 00:12:12,600 --> 00:12:20,280 Speaker 3: became wildly controversial this morning on two fronts. Number one, 200 00:12:20,320 --> 00:12:22,680 Speaker 3: everybody seemed to be real quick to point the finger 201 00:12:22,720 --> 00:12:26,200 Speaker 3: at what they thought was an overly aggressive cop, and 202 00:12:26,240 --> 00:12:31,800 Speaker 3: some still do. And then you read the actual report 203 00:12:32,040 --> 00:12:35,200 Speaker 3: and you understand that there was a man who was 204 00:12:35,360 --> 00:12:39,360 Speaker 3: killed and they were in the middle of a crime scene. 205 00:12:39,480 --> 00:12:43,079 Speaker 3: That if someone's just busting through that, you're probably gonna 206 00:12:43,120 --> 00:12:46,040 Speaker 3: be a little bit on high alert if you are 207 00:12:46,200 --> 00:12:50,920 Speaker 3: I don't know, security or police that's around that area. 208 00:12:51,120 --> 00:12:54,880 Speaker 3: And then number three, you didn't stop even though said 209 00:12:54,960 --> 00:12:59,600 Speaker 3: dude was hanging on this side of your car. So 210 00:13:00,840 --> 00:13:05,480 Speaker 3: all these and I don't think anyone's backed down, but 211 00:13:05,559 --> 00:13:08,800 Speaker 3: all these, oh gosh, what an overly aggressive cop or 212 00:13:08,840 --> 00:13:12,520 Speaker 3: what an overly aggressive security guard? What you kind of 213 00:13:12,760 --> 00:13:15,520 Speaker 3: had a pullback, just a scooge. Now, is there's some 214 00:13:15,720 --> 00:13:18,240 Speaker 3: bag on the face for everyone involved in this? I'm 215 00:13:18,280 --> 00:13:23,040 Speaker 3: sure there is. But a man died, it was a 216 00:13:23,120 --> 00:13:27,000 Speaker 3: crime scene. Someone had been killed. Now, again, it was 217 00:13:27,040 --> 00:13:30,400 Speaker 3: an accident, and it's terrible that it happened. But in 218 00:13:30,440 --> 00:13:34,640 Speaker 3: that moment, I guess I just never understood the people 219 00:13:34,720 --> 00:13:36,800 Speaker 3: that were like, well, he's the world's number one golfer, 220 00:13:36,920 --> 00:13:39,120 Speaker 3: just let him go through. I do not understand that, 221 00:13:39,200 --> 00:13:42,360 Speaker 3: nor will I ever get that. But I'm pulling back 222 00:13:42,600 --> 00:13:43,280 Speaker 3: a little further. 223 00:13:45,200 --> 00:13:48,880 Speaker 2: He still played, He's still played. 224 00:13:49,120 --> 00:13:52,400 Speaker 3: He was stretching in a jail cell, and he still 225 00:13:52,440 --> 00:13:55,920 Speaker 3: went out and played and shot pretty well. He's in contention. 226 00:13:57,320 --> 00:14:00,200 Speaker 3: So let's what has Ben Mallord do. He mixes all 227 00:14:00,240 --> 00:14:04,600 Speaker 3: the ingredients in Let's see, we've got a major, we've 228 00:14:04,600 --> 00:14:08,600 Speaker 3: got a death, and we've got a jail cell, and 229 00:14:08,640 --> 00:14:11,520 Speaker 3: you mix them all together and somehow you come out 230 00:14:11,960 --> 00:14:16,240 Speaker 3: with one of the all time weirdest stories in sports 231 00:14:16,679 --> 00:14:22,120 Speaker 3: to where again, I'm not saying Scottie Scheffler did anything 232 00:14:22,240 --> 00:14:28,200 Speaker 3: intentionally or with malice, but in this misunderstanding, dude ended 233 00:14:28,280 --> 00:14:33,160 Speaker 3: up in jail and yet skill shot well enough to 234 00:14:33,240 --> 00:14:34,360 Speaker 3: keep himself in contention. 235 00:14:34,600 --> 00:14:37,080 Speaker 2: It's unbelievable, unbelievable. 236 00:14:37,120 --> 00:14:39,400 Speaker 3: So here's some of the other stories, and I'd love 237 00:14:39,440 --> 00:14:42,200 Speaker 3: your help on this tonight at Plank Show. That's at 238 00:14:42,200 --> 00:14:48,400 Speaker 3: Plank Show. The man Tito no girlfriend. That was a 239 00:14:48,440 --> 00:14:53,280 Speaker 3: pretty weird story. Now as far as just in general, 240 00:14:54,800 --> 00:14:58,040 Speaker 3: that was maybe number one, number one, I don't know 241 00:14:58,080 --> 00:15:01,960 Speaker 3: if anything had ever topped that, right. What was her name, 242 00:15:02,280 --> 00:15:08,440 Speaker 3: Lenae Kakua. I think they did a Netflix documentary on it. 243 00:15:08,480 --> 00:15:11,000 Speaker 3: That is pretty funny, I mean, and by that, I 244 00:15:11,000 --> 00:15:13,760 Speaker 3: mean it's pretty wild to see. And I remember, man, 245 00:15:13,840 --> 00:15:19,480 Speaker 3: I I'm pretty sure we can find some tape where 246 00:15:19,480 --> 00:15:22,040 Speaker 3: when Manti Tail was in the Heisman race that year. 247 00:15:23,000 --> 00:15:24,840 Speaker 3: I'm pretty sure that I was one of those people 248 00:15:24,880 --> 00:15:27,080 Speaker 3: that came out and said, well, I mean, he lost 249 00:15:27,160 --> 00:15:29,320 Speaker 3: his girlfriend and he had the incredible year. I mean, 250 00:15:29,320 --> 00:15:31,720 Speaker 3: it's part of the story. It's an incredible story. Let's go, 251 00:15:32,400 --> 00:15:35,680 Speaker 3: let's go. And so I felt for that. That was 252 00:15:35,720 --> 00:15:42,640 Speaker 3: pretty weird. I mean, you got Jason Pierre Paul on 253 00:15:42,840 --> 00:15:46,400 Speaker 3: what a fourth of July had his fingers blown off 254 00:15:46,440 --> 00:15:47,479 Speaker 3: by fireworks. 255 00:15:48,240 --> 00:15:49,640 Speaker 2: That's a pretty wild story. 256 00:15:50,200 --> 00:15:52,760 Speaker 3: And then then Adam Shefter got a bunch of people 257 00:15:52,840 --> 00:15:57,320 Speaker 3: fired because he reported the X ray. How does that 258 00:15:57,360 --> 00:15:59,760 Speaker 3: even happen? By the way, Someone's like, hey, yeah, Adam Sheffard, 259 00:15:59,760 --> 00:16:02,600 Speaker 3: I've got this great scoop for you. Here's Jason Pierre 260 00:16:02,600 --> 00:16:09,520 Speaker 3: Paul's mangled hand. Vonte Davis retiring at halftime rip that 261 00:16:09,600 --> 00:16:15,720 Speaker 3: was pretty weird. But you know Tiger Woods, what happened, 262 00:16:15,920 --> 00:16:19,600 Speaker 3: cars wrecked, Apparently wife came after him with an iron. 263 00:16:20,400 --> 00:16:21,920 Speaker 3: He was whacked out of his mind, and then we 264 00:16:21,960 --> 00:16:25,480 Speaker 3: found out he was he was chasing everything that I 265 00:16:25,520 --> 00:16:28,360 Speaker 3: don't know basically would give him the time of day. 266 00:16:29,760 --> 00:16:34,800 Speaker 2: But again, it's just it's one of those stories that 267 00:16:34,960 --> 00:16:36,960 Speaker 2: is just wild. 268 00:16:37,640 --> 00:16:40,200 Speaker 3: And then to have of I mean, Jeff Darlington is 269 00:16:40,280 --> 00:16:44,520 Speaker 3: right there living the whole damn thing. Why because ESPN 270 00:16:44,880 --> 00:16:48,160 Speaker 3: had him at the front gate for golfers that were arriving, 271 00:16:48,520 --> 00:16:51,360 Speaker 3: not because there was a tragedy that had taken place 272 00:16:51,400 --> 00:16:54,280 Speaker 3: out front, but because he was positioned there for golfers 273 00:16:54,280 --> 00:16:57,400 Speaker 3: when they come in. In one of the moments that 274 00:16:57,720 --> 00:17:01,600 Speaker 3: is still kind of wild to me, Scottie Scheffler is 275 00:17:02,280 --> 00:17:07,000 Speaker 3: asking Jeff Darlington for help. It's like, will you help me? Meanwhile, 276 00:17:07,000 --> 00:17:11,399 Speaker 3: I'm thinking to myself, the only thing Jeff Darlington has 277 00:17:11,400 --> 00:17:13,280 Speaker 3: ever kind of helped me with in the past is 278 00:17:13,720 --> 00:17:16,160 Speaker 3: I don't know whether or not I should start two 279 00:17:16,280 --> 00:17:20,880 Speaker 3: as my fantasy quarterbacks like Dolphins information, but a wild day, 280 00:17:21,520 --> 00:17:27,439 Speaker 3: wild day. I hate it for everyone involved. It's a 281 00:17:27,560 --> 00:17:31,480 Speaker 3: terribly tragic story, but it's also one to where I 282 00:17:31,520 --> 00:17:36,520 Speaker 3: don't necessarily know that anyone has to be right or wrong. 283 00:17:37,440 --> 00:17:42,720 Speaker 3: In the debate world. You can feel like maybe the 284 00:17:42,760 --> 00:17:45,359 Speaker 3: police were a little bit overly aggressive in that same situation, 285 00:17:45,440 --> 00:17:47,479 Speaker 3: but I would step right up to the defense and 286 00:17:47,520 --> 00:17:53,320 Speaker 3: say they were investigating a crime. You could say that 287 00:17:54,720 --> 00:17:58,359 Speaker 3: in this instance Scottie Scheffler should have had a little 288 00:17:58,359 --> 00:18:00,480 Speaker 3: bit more freedom to do what he wants. But in 289 00:18:00,520 --> 00:18:04,880 Speaker 3: that same vein again, they're investigating a crime, and I'm 290 00:18:04,880 --> 00:18:06,680 Speaker 3: gonna take this guy guy something real quick before we 291 00:18:06,720 --> 00:18:09,119 Speaker 3: grab our first break on this. This is by no 292 00:18:09,240 --> 00:18:11,480 Speaker 3: means a humble brag, so please don't take it that way. 293 00:18:12,280 --> 00:18:16,320 Speaker 3: But there has been many times where I have, in 294 00:18:16,440 --> 00:18:21,439 Speaker 3: covering an event, had a parking pass or at least 295 00:18:21,800 --> 00:18:26,800 Speaker 3: authorization to park in a certain lot. And I'm telling 296 00:18:26,840 --> 00:18:30,000 Speaker 3: you nine point nine out of ten times, when you 297 00:18:30,080 --> 00:18:33,080 Speaker 3: go to the first guy, our gal and they point 298 00:18:33,160 --> 00:18:35,440 Speaker 3: you in the direction to where you need to go, 299 00:18:36,119 --> 00:18:39,160 Speaker 3: by the time you get to said direction, no one 300 00:18:39,240 --> 00:18:42,800 Speaker 3: has any idea where you're supposed to be. It's like, wait, wait, 301 00:18:42,920 --> 00:18:45,320 Speaker 3: told you to come over here. Well no, no, no, 302 00:18:45,359 --> 00:18:47,800 Speaker 3: you can't go through here. You got to go around there, right, yeah, yeah, 303 00:18:47,840 --> 00:18:52,200 Speaker 3: there you go. No one ever knows. So you're also 304 00:18:52,440 --> 00:18:57,800 Speaker 3: counting on in the rain, in the dark, everyone knowing 305 00:18:57,840 --> 00:19:01,080 Speaker 3: where they're supposed to be going, and it can be 306 00:19:01,119 --> 00:19:04,720 Speaker 3: an absolute nightmare, as we saw play out today. But 307 00:19:05,240 --> 00:19:07,760 Speaker 3: when we come back to the Bernie Frado Show eighty 308 00:19:07,760 --> 00:19:10,360 Speaker 3: six to Burn, we'll hear a little bit from Scottie 309 00:19:10,359 --> 00:19:12,840 Speaker 3: Scheffler and what he had to say, I owe you 310 00:19:12,880 --> 00:19:15,600 Speaker 3: a game six to three cap for the Pacers and 311 00:19:15,720 --> 00:19:19,879 Speaker 3: Nicks should be short and painless. And moments ago, the 312 00:19:19,960 --> 00:19:23,320 Speaker 3: Dallas Stars advanced to the Western Finals with their win 313 00:19:24,000 --> 00:19:27,720 Speaker 3: in double overtime over Colorado two to one.

The way tire 507 00:27:38,720 --> 00:27:41,560 Speaker 3: buying should be One more quick little quote here from 508 00:27:41,600 --> 00:27:45,480 Speaker 3: Scottie Scheffler, then we'll get into the Nixon the Pacers. 509 00:27:46,440 --> 00:27:51,159 Speaker 3: Scheffler talked about the nature of what happened and the 510 00:27:51,200 --> 00:27:52,760 Speaker 3: misunderstanding that took place. 511 00:27:52,960 --> 00:27:56,040 Speaker 12: This is a huge misunderstanding this morning that that'll get resolved, 512 00:27:56,040 --> 00:27:58,760 Speaker 12: I think fairly quickly. And yeah, I mean I came 513 00:27:58,800 --> 00:28:00,800 Speaker 12: here for a golf tournament. I was driving in this morning, 514 00:28:00,840 --> 00:28:03,880 Speaker 12: trying to get to my warm up time and get 515 00:28:03,880 --> 00:28:05,720 Speaker 12: ready for the round of golf. You know, I didn't 516 00:28:05,720 --> 00:28:08,359 Speaker 12: really have an understanding of what it transpired this morning, 517 00:28:08,720 --> 00:28:12,080 Speaker 12: and you know, my main focus after you getting arrested 518 00:28:12,600 --> 00:28:15,040 Speaker 12: was you know, wondering if I could be able to 519 00:28:15,080 --> 00:28:17,040 Speaker 12: come back out here and play, and you know, fortunately 520 00:28:17,040 --> 00:28:18,560 Speaker 12: I was able to do that, And yeah, it was 521 00:28:18,640 --> 00:28:21,120 Speaker 12: nice to put together a solid round today. 522 00:28:21,200 --> 00:28:26,199 Speaker 3: Yeah, and I think in the huge misunderstanding, just to 523 00:28:26,359 --> 00:28:29,679 Speaker 3: kind of put a little twisty tie on this. I 524 00:28:29,720 --> 00:28:34,800 Speaker 3: don't think he's trying to say, yeah, I uh, there 525 00:28:34,880 --> 00:28:36,560 Speaker 3: was a guy that was dead, but I don't care. 526 00:28:36,600 --> 00:28:39,720 Speaker 3: I needed to get to my round. I think he's 527 00:28:39,800 --> 00:28:42,880 Speaker 3: being honest. And it's a tough situation. You're in an 528 00:28:42,920 --> 00:28:46,960 Speaker 3: unfamiliar car, assuming it's a it's a loaner or rental car. 529 00:28:47,440 --> 00:28:50,160 Speaker 3: You're going into where you're somewhat familiar, but it's also 530 00:28:50,280 --> 00:28:52,960 Speaker 3: dark and it's rainy out. I don't think that there 531 00:28:53,040 --> 00:28:56,320 Speaker 3: was any intention to do anything bad. I just wonder 532 00:28:56,840 --> 00:28:59,560 Speaker 3: why in the world he kept driving with a police 533 00:28:59,640 --> 00:29:01,720 Speaker 3: office sir velcrow to his car. 534 00:29:02,280 --> 00:29:04,360 Speaker 2: That's the thing to me in all of this k thing, 535 00:29:04,760 --> 00:29:06,440 Speaker 2: Where at what point. 536 00:29:06,200 --> 00:29:09,560 Speaker 3: Did it not become hey, maybe I'm not supposed to 537 00:29:09,640 --> 00:29:12,680 Speaker 3: be going this way. The dude is hanging on the 538 00:29:12,720 --> 00:29:15,400 Speaker 3: car right now. Yeah, that's where I'm confused in all 539 00:29:15,480 --> 00:29:15,680 Speaker 3: of this. 540 00:29:15,880 --> 00:29:18,360 Speaker 8: Right, Well, initially the explanation of well I didn't I 541 00:29:18,400 --> 00:29:21,960 Speaker 8: misunderstood the directions, Well, usually you know a one hand up, 542 00:29:22,000 --> 00:29:25,160 Speaker 8: two hands up, stop flashing red lights. Most of those 543 00:29:25,160 --> 00:29:28,160 Speaker 8: are fairly obvious to say, do not proceed. So how 544 00:29:28,200 --> 00:29:30,840 Speaker 8: we misinterpreted what he was being told to do? Where 545 00:29:30,840 --> 00:29:33,160 Speaker 8: he pulled to the side on a median and started 546 00:29:33,200 --> 00:29:36,600 Speaker 8: driving immediately. Initially should have told him probably the wrong move. 547 00:29:36,960 --> 00:29:39,600 Speaker 8: Once a police officer actually puts their hands physically on 548 00:29:39,640 --> 00:29:42,760 Speaker 8: your vehicle, probably tells you maybe I should stop what 549 00:29:42,760 --> 00:29:44,600 Speaker 8: I'm doing too, so. 550 00:29:44,320 --> 00:29:46,000 Speaker 3: He time me to do something else. 551 00:29:46,160 --> 00:29:49,840 Speaker 8: Yeah, maybe I should reconsider so, Like, at what point 552 00:29:49,840 --> 00:29:51,320 Speaker 8: when he says, well, maybe the copetent is going for 553 00:29:51,360 --> 00:29:52,760 Speaker 8: a ride, he just wants to ride to the front 554 00:29:52,760 --> 00:29:53,240 Speaker 8: with his friends. 555 00:29:53,240 --> 00:29:54,520 Speaker 3: I don't know. Maybe that's what it was. Maybe he 556 00:29:54,560 --> 00:29:56,880 Speaker 3: misinterpreted the situation that way too. I don't get it. 557 00:29:58,640 --> 00:30:01,400 Speaker 3: It was interesting in I was watching and listening to 558 00:30:02,080 --> 00:30:07,120 Speaker 3: Jeff Darlington's reports. Can you imagine I was just thinking 559 00:30:07,160 --> 00:30:10,360 Speaker 3: about it from every level he gets on either I 560 00:30:10,360 --> 00:30:12,360 Speaker 3: don't know, the phone or his mind's like, hey, guys, 561 00:30:12,560 --> 00:30:16,240 Speaker 3: they're arresting Scottie Scheffler right now, they're arresting him, and 562 00:30:16,280 --> 00:30:17,080 Speaker 3: can you imagine that? 563 00:30:17,120 --> 00:30:19,800 Speaker 2: What? Now? What? 564 00:30:20,280 --> 00:30:22,000 Speaker 3: And then you've got to tell the whole story of 565 00:30:22,040 --> 00:30:24,400 Speaker 3: what's going on. I thought he did a great job. 566 00:30:24,600 --> 00:30:27,640 Speaker 3: I thought it was a great job by Jeff Darlington. 567 00:30:27,680 --> 00:30:31,000 Speaker 3: He crushed it today and the cops are yelling at 568 00:30:31,040 --> 00:30:34,440 Speaker 3: him to get back I mean again, the thing that 569 00:30:34,600 --> 00:30:39,480 Speaker 3: is forgotten in all of this. I feel like there 570 00:30:39,600 --> 00:30:44,440 Speaker 3: was a person who got killed going to work. There 571 00:30:44,600 --> 00:30:48,080 Speaker 3: was someone who died going to work, and they were 572 00:30:48,840 --> 00:30:52,400 Speaker 3: it's a crime scene, so they're investigating why did that happen? 573 00:30:52,480 --> 00:30:54,560 Speaker 3: How did that happen? And yet you still have the 574 00:30:54,560 --> 00:30:57,120 Speaker 3: flow of traffic. They're trying to make sure that it stays, 575 00:30:57,640 --> 00:31:00,160 Speaker 3: you know, consistent where it's a major event, and the 576 00:31:00,200 --> 00:31:03,240 Speaker 3: same time you've had a tragedy. So I guess this 577 00:31:03,280 --> 00:31:07,360 Speaker 3: whole Scotty was wronged crowd. I don't have a lot 578 00:31:07,400 --> 00:31:09,520 Speaker 3: of time for it. I really don't. By the way, 579 00:31:09,840 --> 00:31:12,520 Speaker 3: at Shady Shawn for twenty did send me my favorite 580 00:31:12,800 --> 00:31:16,640 Speaker 3: pick slash, I guess meme the shot of Scotti Scheffler 581 00:31:16,680 --> 00:31:19,280 Speaker 3: with the tear drop tattoo next to his eye. 582 00:31:20,040 --> 00:31:23,560 Speaker 2: Very well done, Very well done. Now is it up there? 583 00:31:24,600 --> 00:31:27,400 Speaker 3: As Brett hits us up on X, he says Tyson 584 00:31:27,480 --> 00:31:32,120 Speaker 3: biting Mike Evander Holyfield's ear, Marv Albert sexually assaulting a 585 00:31:32,200 --> 00:31:37,520 Speaker 3: prostitute while dressed as a woman and salvaged his career. Yeah, 586 00:31:37,560 --> 00:31:39,960 Speaker 3: you know what, People forget the Marv Albert story because 587 00:31:40,000 --> 00:31:41,440 Speaker 3: he was so good at his job. 588 00:31:42,400 --> 00:31:45,160 Speaker 2: I mean it was it was interesting. 589 00:31:45,800 --> 00:31:48,640 Speaker 3: That was one of those that was one of those 590 00:31:48,880 --> 00:31:53,400 Speaker 3: pre Twitter stories that had Twitter been around in nineteen 591 00:31:53,480 --> 00:31:56,800 Speaker 3: ninety seven, that would have been quite a night on 592 00:31:56,840 --> 00:32:00,920 Speaker 3: the Twitter machine, are the X machine whatever? But yeah, 593 00:32:00,920 --> 00:32:05,000 Speaker 3: this is it's just weird. And we get a lot 594 00:32:05,000 --> 00:32:07,840 Speaker 3: of weird stories and sports. But to have a guy 595 00:32:07,960 --> 00:32:13,680 Speaker 3: that was sent to jail under circumstances that were just 596 00:32:14,720 --> 00:32:17,480 Speaker 3: I mean terrible around it, but odd. 597 00:32:17,480 --> 00:32:20,080 Speaker 2: I have something real quickly, yeah, and then still goes 598 00:32:20,200 --> 00:32:21,280 Speaker 2: out and plays. 599 00:32:22,040 --> 00:32:22,600 Speaker 3: That's wild. 600 00:32:22,640 --> 00:32:23,960 Speaker 2: Mark, you want to add some of this before we 601 00:32:24,040 --> 00:32:24,600 Speaker 2: got a break. 602 00:32:24,720 --> 00:32:29,080 Speaker 3: I'm just thinking about there was a Carolina Panther offensive player. 603 00:32:29,640 --> 00:32:33,080 Speaker 3: There was something along with a fiance and a baby 604 00:32:33,120 --> 00:32:34,440 Speaker 3: and a kidnapp Ray. 605 00:32:34,280 --> 00:32:35,760 Speaker 2: Caruth, Ray Caruth. 606 00:32:35,840 --> 00:32:39,960 Speaker 3: Yeah, that was weird. That was changed. That was tragic. Thankfully, 607 00:32:40,320 --> 00:32:43,960 Speaker 3: thankfully we didn't have anything quite to that degree. But yeah, 608 00:32:44,200 --> 00:32:46,120 Speaker 3: that was up there because I had a different category 609 00:32:46,120 --> 00:32:49,160 Speaker 3: for that. I have Ray Kruth and Aaron Hernandez in 610 00:32:49,280 --> 00:32:55,400 Speaker 3: the beyond explainable extremes extreme, right, They're in that extreme 611 00:32:55,480 --> 00:32:59,040 Speaker 3: category of weird and craziness. Now you kind of got 612 00:32:59,400 --> 00:33:02,280 Speaker 3: this is this is like a middle of the road 613 00:33:02,280 --> 00:33:04,000 Speaker 3: but it's one of the weirdest just the way that 614 00:33:04,040 --> 00:33:06,280 Speaker 3: it played out. By the way, for those that aren't familiar, 615 00:33:06,600 --> 00:33:10,600 Speaker 3: Ray Kruth's found guilty of conspiracy to murder, shooting into 616 00:33:10,640 --> 00:33:13,280 Speaker 3: an occupied vehicle, and using an instrument to destroy an 617 00:33:13,320 --> 00:33:16,719 Speaker 3: unborn child.

I mean 675 00:36:03,560 --> 00:36:06,719 Speaker 15: DK Metcalt did something similar last year and I believe 676 00:36:06,719 --> 00:36:08,600 Speaker 15: it was against the Lions, and like week three or 677 00:36:08,640 --> 00:36:11,640 Speaker 15: something like that. So like, that's one that comes to mind, obviously, 678 00:36:11,680 --> 00:36:13,759 Speaker 15: I mean in terms of more crazy. I mean, you 679 00:36:13,760 --> 00:36:16,960 Speaker 15: guys are touching on the Marv Albert stuff also, I 680 00:36:16,960 --> 00:36:19,560 Speaker 15: mean oj Simpson. I mean, that's a crazy one. That's 681 00:36:19,560 --> 00:36:20,280 Speaker 15: a crazy story. 682 00:36:20,400 --> 00:36:23,680 Speaker 5: Rashid Rice Chris, that's also that's crazy. 683 00:36:23,880 --> 00:36:26,160 Speaker 3: You know what bothers me still to this day about 684 00:36:26,280 --> 00:36:29,399 Speaker 3: Rashid is the fact that there's literally video of them 685 00:36:29,600 --> 00:36:32,400 Speaker 3: just calmly walking away from the rack on the middle 686 00:36:32,480 --> 00:36:35,960 Speaker 3: of a wildly busy interstate in Dallas. Here you have 687 00:36:36,040 --> 00:36:38,800 Speaker 3: these two just walking away from Iraq like it never happened. 688 00:36:40,040 --> 00:36:41,680 Speaker 15: Yeah, I don't know how he could do that. I 689 00:36:41,760 --> 00:36:44,080 Speaker 15: honestly don't get it. And then I'll quickly, you know, 690 00:36:44,200 --> 00:36:46,759 Speaker 15: touch on you know, the NFL schedule here, I think, 691 00:36:47,320 --> 00:36:49,120 Speaker 15: like I'll sell on Ian this during like when you 692 00:36:49,160 --> 00:36:51,759 Speaker 15: took my call. It's just I feel bad for the Steelers, man. 693 00:36:51,840 --> 00:36:52,880 Speaker 15: Their second half. 694 00:36:52,680 --> 00:36:54,600 Speaker 4: Of their schedule is absolutely brutal. 695 00:36:54,640 --> 00:36:56,600 Speaker 15: I mean they face like three two or three division 696 00:36:56,600 --> 00:36:59,680 Speaker 15: opponents twice and then they go and then they play 697 00:36:59,760 --> 00:37:02,800 Speaker 15: Mahome and they play Jalen Hurt, So like just absolutely 698 00:37:02,840 --> 00:37:04,840 Speaker 15: horrible for the Steelers. That's telling me and I'm like, 699 00:37:05,239 --> 00:37:05,799 Speaker 15: just make it. 700 00:37:05,760 --> 00:37:07,239 Speaker 13: Like, stretch it out a little bit. 701 00:37:07,280 --> 00:37:09,320 Speaker 4: Like the whole second half for the Steelers. 702 00:37:09,360 --> 00:37:10,279 Speaker 15: It's so lobsided. 703 00:37:10,320 --> 00:37:11,480 Speaker 13: It's just like, come on, man. 704 00:37:12,200 --> 00:37:13,880 Speaker 15: I mean, I'm glad I'm non Stewer fans. 705 00:37:14,120 --> 00:37:15,839 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's pretty brutal. Thanks for the phone call. I mean, 706 00:37:15,840 --> 00:37:18,319 Speaker 3: it's great to hear your voice. Eight seven seven ninety 707 00:37:18,360 --> 00:37:21,160 Speaker 3: nine one Fox eight seven seven nine ninety six six 708 00:37:21,239 --> 00:37:26,640 Speaker 3: three sixth nine. I like the idea of the schedule release. 709 00:37:27,120 --> 00:37:29,520 Speaker 3: I love talking about Oh my gosh, the schedule release 710 00:37:29,560 --> 00:37:32,120 Speaker 3: is coming. I can't wait to kind of pick all 711 00:37:32,120 --> 00:37:34,920 Speaker 3: these games and figure out who's gonna play win, And 712 00:37:35,000 --> 00:37:37,120 Speaker 3: then all of a sudden the schedule is released, and 713 00:37:37,120 --> 00:37:40,680 Speaker 3: I'm like, oh, so we still have one hundred days 714 00:37:40,760 --> 00:37:43,560 Speaker 3: until the football season starts. I see less than that 715 00:37:43,640 --> 00:37:47,239 Speaker 3: if you care about the preseason. The Steelers open with 716 00:37:47,360 --> 00:37:49,839 Speaker 3: three of their first four games on the road. Now, 717 00:37:49,880 --> 00:37:54,920 Speaker 3: granted those three aren't necessarily Juggernauts. We'll see about Atlanta. 718 00:37:55,360 --> 00:38:00,360 Speaker 3: Then they go to Denver it's fascinating Russell wilson Arger's 719 00:38:00,400 --> 00:38:02,479 Speaker 3: home game, and then a trip to Indy. So three 720 00:38:02,480 --> 00:38:05,200 Speaker 3: of their first four games are on the road. But 721 00:38:05,480 --> 00:38:09,640 Speaker 3: that stretch to finish the season might be one of 722 00:38:09,680 --> 00:38:13,000 Speaker 3: the more brutal stretches I think I've ever seen. And 723 00:38:13,200 --> 00:38:16,600 Speaker 3: it actually starts to me in Week eleven they played 724 00:38:17,760 --> 00:38:19,960 Speaker 3: Are we feeling like Cleveland's going to be a playoff 725 00:38:19,960 --> 00:38:24,160 Speaker 3: team again? I mean, just hypothetically say that they improve. 726 00:38:24,239 --> 00:38:27,200 Speaker 3: I've got I've got Cleveland on my list of teams 727 00:38:27,239 --> 00:38:29,719 Speaker 3: that I think might underachieve this year. I think they 728 00:38:29,800 --> 00:38:32,240 Speaker 3: might underachieve. Could be the end of the Deshaun Watson 729 00:38:32,440 --> 00:38:35,759 Speaker 3: error in Cleveland. But usually when I say something like 730 00:38:35,800 --> 00:38:37,719 Speaker 3: that at Cleveland, fan gets mad, says, look at our 731 00:38:37,719 --> 00:38:38,839 Speaker 3: complete roster, and you're right. 732 00:38:38,840 --> 00:38:41,120 Speaker 2: They've done a great job building the roster. They really have. 733 00:38:41,440 --> 00:38:44,160 Speaker 3: They went to the playoffs led by a guy who 734 00:38:44,239 --> 00:38:46,480 Speaker 3: was sitting on his couch at the midpoint of the seas. 735 00:38:46,560 --> 00:38:49,920 Speaker 3: I mean, it's incredible. It just doesn't happen. But you 736 00:38:50,040 --> 00:38:54,560 Speaker 3: go after they're playing in Washington and Week ten, get 737 00:38:54,560 --> 00:38:58,960 Speaker 3: this schedule home for Baltimore at Cleveland at Cincion back 738 00:38:59,000 --> 00:39:02,240 Speaker 3: to back weeks, and the Cleveland game is a Thursday 739 00:39:02,320 --> 00:39:05,000 Speaker 3: night game. Then you turn around you get Cleveland at home, 740 00:39:05,040 --> 00:39:06,880 Speaker 3: so you play them twice in three weeks. 741 00:39:07,400 --> 00:39:08,480 Speaker 2: You go to Philly on the. 742 00:39:08,440 --> 00:39:12,440 Speaker 3: Fifteenth short week, to Baltimore on the twenty first, shorter 743 00:39:12,560 --> 00:39:15,280 Speaker 3: week for a home game against Kansas City on Wednesday, 744 00:39:15,600 --> 00:39:18,440 Speaker 3: the twenty fifth, that's Christmas, and then you wrap up 745 00:39:18,480 --> 00:39:22,760 Speaker 3: with Cincinnati. So you play all three of your division 746 00:39:22,880 --> 00:39:28,759 Speaker 3: foes in the span of what like seven weeks eight, 747 00:39:29,000 --> 00:39:32,480 Speaker 3: I mean it's the first half of the season. It's like, oh, 748 00:39:32,520 --> 00:39:34,879 Speaker 3: let's get all their non conference games out of the way. 749 00:39:34,920 --> 00:39:37,560 Speaker 3: If I could use a college football term here, all right, 750 00:39:37,560 --> 00:39:38,720 Speaker 3: you're ready down the stretch. 751 00:39:38,920 --> 00:39:39,560 Speaker 2: Let's make it. 752 00:39:39,640 --> 00:39:43,440 Speaker 3: Hell in the first ten weeks of the season, they 753 00:39:43,480 --> 00:39:47,440 Speaker 3: do not play a single team in their division in 754 00:39:47,480 --> 00:39:50,799 Speaker 3: the final What would that be then? A they play 755 00:39:50,800 --> 00:39:53,480 Speaker 3: them all? Oh and by the way, the two teams 756 00:39:53,480 --> 00:39:55,719 Speaker 3: that are mixed in in the middle of that are 757 00:39:55,760 --> 00:39:58,440 Speaker 3: Philadelphia and Kansas City, two teams that could go to 758 00:39:58,480 --> 00:40:01,719 Speaker 3: the Super Bowl? Am it? Good? Eye, good catch, man. 759 00:40:01,760 --> 00:40:05,000 Speaker 3: I'm with you on that one tough, tough stretch for Pittsburgh. 760 00:40:05,120 --> 00:40:08,080 Speaker 3: We'll go in depth on how the sausage was made tomorrow. 761 00:40:08,680 --> 00:40:13,239 Speaker 3: I think that is a fascinating, fascinating story because of 762 00:40:13,280 --> 00:40:16,920 Speaker 3: all the battles that the NFL and their new media 763 00:40:17,000 --> 00:40:19,920 Speaker 3: partners went through to make sure that they got the best, 764 00:40:20,400 --> 00:40:23,759 Speaker 3: the best matchups, and the best possible place for the 765 00:40:23,800 --> 00:40:26,759 Speaker 3: maximum number of viewers. All right, when we come back 766 00:40:26,800 --> 00:40:29,680 Speaker 3: to the tirack dot Com studios, I keep talking about it, 767 00:40:29,920 --> 00:40:33,200 Speaker 3: I haven't got to it.

No, h the jamis Winston stealing 854 00:45:02,520 --> 00:45:05,799 Speaker 3: crab legs. That was that was weird, right, even though 855 00:45:05,800 --> 00:45:08,920 Speaker 3: it was funny that. I uh, I've been to Florida 856 00:45:08,920 --> 00:45:11,239 Speaker 3: a lot and the publics are awesome. I don't know 857 00:45:11,280 --> 00:45:13,600 Speaker 3: how anyone caught him because there's so many people in 858 00:45:13,640 --> 00:45:15,840 Speaker 3: those places. I feel like I could walk in with 859 00:45:15,920 --> 00:45:21,000 Speaker 3: eighty six bags of groceries and never get caught. Alex 860 00:45:21,120 --> 00:45:26,000 Speaker 3: Rodriguez having somebody, you know, using someone else's pe to 861 00:45:26,000 --> 00:45:29,040 Speaker 3: try to pass a drug test. I mean, but it's 862 00:45:29,080 --> 00:45:32,719 Speaker 3: this is such a different category in my mind because 863 00:45:34,160 --> 00:45:36,719 Speaker 3: it's playing out in real time right in front of us, 864 00:45:37,600 --> 00:45:41,520 Speaker 3: in advance of the actual tournament taking place. And then 865 00:45:41,600 --> 00:45:45,360 Speaker 3: lo and behold you look up and boom, he's on 866 00:45:45,400 --> 00:45:50,240 Speaker 3: the first t It's crazy. So we've got our lists 867 00:45:50,280 --> 00:45:53,160 Speaker 3: that are going throughout the night. Let's see, there was 868 00:45:53,239 --> 00:45:57,719 Speaker 3: the oh, this was good, this was good, this was 869 00:45:58,200 --> 00:46:00,840 Speaker 3: right off the top. Top Mark brought this up the 870 00:46:00,920 --> 00:46:05,120 Speaker 3: Nancy Carrigan situation when she got wrenched in the in 871 00:46:05,160 --> 00:46:09,640 Speaker 3: the leg. That was wild. Anything with OJ was always 872 00:46:09,680 --> 00:46:11,879 Speaker 3: kind of wild, but that was like a different degree, right, 873 00:46:11,880 --> 00:46:15,960 Speaker 3: we're talking about we're talking about like so I think 874 00:46:16,000 --> 00:46:18,680 Speaker 3: Market brought up Preak Cruth earlier. Right, these are different degrees. 875 00:46:18,719 --> 00:46:21,200 Speaker 3: But there's still just strange stories in the sports world, 876 00:46:21,560 --> 00:46:25,600 Speaker 3: sometimes tragic that just doesn't it doesn't like computers like 877 00:46:25,640 --> 00:46:29,080 Speaker 3: wait what, I'm watching this this morning and I'm you know, 878 00:46:29,200 --> 00:46:32,080 Speaker 3: like many keeping tabs on Scheffler and in a roundabout 879 00:46:32,080 --> 00:46:35,160 Speaker 3: way rooting for him. Like, again, I don't think he 880 00:46:35,239 --> 00:46:38,200 Speaker 3: did anything purposeful, but I also think he broke the law. 881 00:46:38,760 --> 00:46:43,319 Speaker 3: So I mean, it happens, he'll pay a fine or 882 00:46:43,840 --> 00:46:47,880 Speaker 3: whatever the penalty's gonna be, and he'll get through it. Hell, 883 00:46:47,920 --> 00:46:51,920 Speaker 3: he might even win this weekend. But there's weird things 884 00:46:52,480 --> 00:46:56,040 Speaker 3: along the lines of oddities that we've seen in the 885 00:46:56,080 --> 00:46:58,759 Speaker 3: sports world. This was definitely one of the weirder. So 886 00:46:59,239 --> 00:47:01,000 Speaker 3: let's get a couple of call on this eight seven, 887 00:47:01,120 --> 00:47:03,520 Speaker 3: seven ninety nine on Fox.

Then you got 896 00:47:24,160 --> 00:47:27,320 Speaker 11: Lawrence Taylor with the vial on the sidelines on Monday 897 00:47:27,360 --> 00:47:31,120 Speaker 11: Lights Football, and then you have Oscar de la Hoya 898 00:47:31,760 --> 00:47:34,839 Speaker 11: with the pictures in Lingerie, have a good night. 899 00:47:36,000 --> 00:47:39,799 Speaker 3: It's still funny to me, like, I, okay, I'm a 900 00:47:39,880 --> 00:47:42,400 Speaker 3: sucker for a prize fight. You want to see me 901 00:47:43,360 --> 00:47:45,920 Speaker 3: in an element that I don't spend a lot of 902 00:47:45,920 --> 00:47:50,400 Speaker 3: time right boxing, but where I suddenly become a boxing expert, 903 00:47:50,640 --> 00:47:53,360 Speaker 3: get me ready for a big fight. And I loved 904 00:47:53,360 --> 00:47:57,319 Speaker 3: Oscar de la Hoya, loved him. Now he didn't always win, 905 00:47:58,239 --> 00:48:01,200 Speaker 3: but it was always a big time all right. That 906 00:48:01,440 --> 00:48:03,480 Speaker 3: was one of those when those pictures came out, I 907 00:48:03,520 --> 00:48:06,760 Speaker 3: was like, it's not real, not real. Cannot allow myself 908 00:48:06,760 --> 00:48:10,160 Speaker 3: to believe that the Plexico and Plaux is here on 909 00:48:10,200 --> 00:48:12,759 Speaker 3: Fox Sports Radio. Does a great job with us. That 910 00:48:12,920 --> 00:48:19,000 Speaker 3: was a wild story, too wild, And again he was 911 00:48:19,000 --> 00:48:21,919 Speaker 3: still able to play. He was able to come back 912 00:48:21,920 --> 00:48:27,560 Speaker 3: from it. But it's insane. Let's get back to it. 913 00:48:27,560 --> 00:48:29,880 Speaker 3: At eight seven, seven ninety nine on Fox, Solomon is 914 00:48:29,920 --> 00:48:32,439 Speaker 3: in La.

Here's the thing, and 921 00:48:49,400 --> 00:48:51,759 Speaker 13: I did this, and I made this mistake. When the 922 00:48:51,800 --> 00:48:56,000 Speaker 13: police have something blocked off and it could be a death, 923 00:48:56,239 --> 00:49:00,880 Speaker 13: car accident, a crime scene, whatever, they get really really 924 00:49:01,239 --> 00:49:05,480 Speaker 13: really upset if you violate that. It doesn't matter if 925 00:49:05,520 --> 00:49:07,759 Speaker 13: you think, what's the big deal, I just have to 926 00:49:07,760 --> 00:49:10,279 Speaker 13: go here. I got to do that. You don't know 927 00:49:10,400 --> 00:49:13,400 Speaker 13: what's going on in their minds. They have to have 928 00:49:13,680 --> 00:49:17,480 Speaker 13: absolute control of an area, but just don't push it. 929 00:49:18,120 --> 00:49:20,560 Speaker 13: And he might have had in the total sense to him, 930 00:49:20,719 --> 00:49:22,440 Speaker 13: Hey here's my past I got to get to. That 931 00:49:23,120 --> 00:49:26,319 Speaker 13: doesn't matter in that situation. So that's just my brief 932 00:49:26,360 --> 00:49:28,960 Speaker 13: personal experience. And I've learned when a cop says stop, 933 00:49:29,400 --> 00:49:31,719 Speaker 13: you stop and don't go here. You don't go here, 934 00:49:31,920 --> 00:49:35,080 Speaker 13: he says, turn, you turn, because man, that just it 935 00:49:35,200 --> 00:49:36,640 Speaker 13: just sets them off. You know what I'm saying. 936 00:49:36,880 --> 00:49:39,759 Speaker 3: Yep, absolutely so that. 937 00:49:39,880 --> 00:49:44,400 Speaker 13: Said Game seven, you know, you got to prove to 938 00:49:44,440 --> 00:49:46,479 Speaker 13: me that you can still knock off the champs. They're 939 00:49:46,520 --> 00:49:49,240 Speaker 13: going home. I know they got destroyed in game six. 940 00:49:50,040 --> 00:49:52,839 Speaker 13: I'm getting the feeling that was Minnesota's last gasp. That's 941 00:49:52,920 --> 00:49:56,600 Speaker 13: like your home. It's like watch us play, and I 942 00:49:56,640 --> 00:49:58,840 Speaker 13: think Denver's going to take care of business. I just 943 00:49:58,880 --> 00:50:02,560 Speaker 13: don't see them doing again. Siven in Denver, what you're 944 00:50:02,600 --> 00:50:03,960 Speaker 13: feeling on well, And. 945 00:50:04,320 --> 00:50:09,719 Speaker 3: I appreciate the phone call. I have been Okay, let 946 00:50:09,760 --> 00:50:11,560 Speaker 3: me take you through my path and how I've tried 947 00:50:11,600 --> 00:50:15,200 Speaker 3: to deal with Denver's series with the Timberwolves. All right, 948 00:50:15,200 --> 00:50:18,759 Speaker 3: and this is coming from a Laker fan who's trying 949 00:50:18,800 --> 00:50:23,279 Speaker 3: to still sell themselves that the team is capable of 950 00:50:23,320 --> 00:50:27,040 Speaker 3: winning a title. That's just there's all my disclaimers. Guys, 951 00:50:27,040 --> 00:50:30,040 Speaker 3: you're ready. That's how I'm looking at this with Denver 952 00:50:30,640 --> 00:50:39,319 Speaker 3: Va Minnesota. To me, I thought the Lakers should have 953 00:50:39,320 --> 00:50:43,319 Speaker 3: won that series with Denver. I said it. I think 954 00:50:43,360 --> 00:50:45,880 Speaker 3: that they had every opportunity to win that series. 955 00:50:46,400 --> 00:50:47,400 Speaker 2: But what did Denver do? 956 00:50:47,760 --> 00:50:51,879 Speaker 3: They grinded out good with Jamal Murray hit two incredibly 957 00:50:51,960 --> 00:50:56,280 Speaker 3: clutch buckets, But for the most part, the Lakers played 958 00:50:57,080 --> 00:51:01,040 Speaker 3: even with Denver. It came down. It came down to 959 00:51:01,120 --> 00:51:05,080 Speaker 3: who hit clutch shots. More so, when Denver lost the 960 00:51:05,080 --> 00:51:07,759 Speaker 3: first two games in the way that they did to Minnesota, 961 00:51:08,440 --> 00:51:11,000 Speaker 3: that got me very negative about where the Lakers were. 962 00:51:11,040 --> 00:51:13,520 Speaker 3: I was like, oh my gosh, this Denver team is done. 963 00:51:13,680 --> 00:51:16,840 Speaker 3: I mean, they're just done. But then what happens. Nikola 964 00:51:16,920 --> 00:51:19,360 Speaker 3: Jokic goes on the road, even though he seems to 965 00:51:19,400 --> 00:51:23,560 Speaker 3: hate basketball, balled out. They take control of the series, 966 00:51:23,640 --> 00:51:27,520 Speaker 3: go back home, win it. But for the most part, 967 00:51:28,280 --> 00:51:31,800 Speaker 3: what appeared to be an absolutely awesome series in three 968 00:51:31,840 --> 00:51:35,040 Speaker 3: of the first four games has fallen into a trap 969 00:51:35,080 --> 00:51:38,600 Speaker 3: of every other series, it seems in the NBA playoffs 970 00:51:38,640 --> 00:51:42,520 Speaker 3: right now, outside of Thunder and Mavericks to where you 971 00:51:43,000 --> 00:51:47,200 Speaker 3: just you get smoked whenever you go on the road. 972 00:51:47,560 --> 00:51:54,600 Speaker 3: I mean, I have simply not accepted that Minnesota won 973 00:51:54,640 --> 00:51:58,280 Speaker 3: that game last night, two nights ago now by forty 974 00:51:58,480 --> 00:52:02,520 Speaker 3: five points. There has to be a mistake somewhere in 975 00:52:02,560 --> 00:52:05,759 Speaker 3: the box score. There is no way that Minnesota outscored 976 00:52:06,080 --> 00:52:09,520 Speaker 3: Thenver twenty nine to nine in the fourth quarter. No way, right, 977 00:52:09,640 --> 00:52:13,960 Speaker 3: guess what there is? And yet tomorrow, when these two 978 00:52:13,960 --> 00:52:18,240 Speaker 3: teams playing a Game seven that Sunday, I'm probably like you, Solomon, 979 00:52:18,239 --> 00:52:19,879 Speaker 3: I'm probably gonna look at it and say, I think 980 00:52:19,880 --> 00:52:21,920 Speaker 3: Denver is gonna win this game. I think they got 981 00:52:21,960 --> 00:52:24,000 Speaker 3: them and they just lost by forty five points. 982 00:52:24,800 --> 00:52:27,000 Speaker 2: NBA playoffs are hard to figure out. 983 00:52:27,520 --> 00:52:33,440 Speaker 3: Like the Thunder, The Thunder Maverick series has been fantastic. 984 00:52:34,320 --> 00:52:39,080 Speaker 2: It's been fantastic. But as as much as. 985 00:52:38,960 --> 00:52:43,120 Speaker 3: It's exciting that there's a game six tomorrow in this series, 986 00:52:43,560 --> 00:52:45,600 Speaker 3: either one of these teams could have or should have 987 00:52:45,600 --> 00:52:46,560 Speaker 3: already won this series. 988 00:52:47,800 --> 00:52:49,480 Speaker 2: It's just especially Dallas. 989 00:52:49,520 --> 00:52:53,239 Speaker 3: I mean Dallas blew a double digit lead in the 990 00:52:53,280 --> 00:52:56,080 Speaker 3: fourth quarter against the Thunder at home, and what was 991 00:52:56,080 --> 00:52:59,759 Speaker 3: that Game four? I mean, this should be over. This 992 00:53:00,320 --> 00:53:05,360 Speaker 3: be over. So circling all the way back to Minnesota 993 00:53:05,360 --> 00:53:08,320 Speaker 3: and Denver and I had viewed things from the lens 994 00:53:08,400 --> 00:53:12,640 Speaker 3: of hey, did the Lakers get smoked by a team 995 00:53:13,200 --> 00:53:17,000 Speaker 3: that's just not eliminated maybe is a better way to 996 00:53:17,040 --> 00:53:20,359 Speaker 3: put it. That's just not their heart's not in it, 997 00:53:20,960 --> 00:53:24,480 Speaker 3: passion isn't there. They want a title. They beat the Lakers, 998 00:53:24,480 --> 00:53:27,800 Speaker 3: they got it taken care of their fine. Now, no, 999 00:53:29,160 --> 00:53:31,839 Speaker 3: they got beat by the defending champs, and Denver has 1000 00:53:31,880 --> 00:53:35,239 Speaker 3: shown that they's still that team to beat. I love 1001 00:53:35,280 --> 00:53:39,440 Speaker 3: the confidence of Anthony Edwards. I don't think Minnesota or 1002 00:53:39,600 --> 00:53:43,279 Speaker 3: Oklahoma City are going to pull a Utah. Guys. You 1003 00:53:43,400 --> 00:53:47,480 Speaker 3: realize we're not too far removed from the Utah Jazz 1004 00:53:48,320 --> 00:53:53,640 Speaker 3: being the number one overall seed in the NBA's Western Conference. 1005 00:53:54,080 --> 00:53:59,799 Speaker 3: I mean a team that hasn't sniffed the playoffs in 1006 00:54:00,120 --> 00:54:06,280 Speaker 3: to what two seasons was the number one overall seed 1007 00:54:06,920 --> 00:54:11,879 Speaker 3: in the twenty twenty twenty twenty one playoffs? First number one, 1008 00:54:12,040 --> 00:54:18,000 Speaker 3: number one, and then the bottom fell out. Donn Mitchell 1009 00:54:18,000 --> 00:54:20,880 Speaker 3: wanted to go somewhere else. Rudy Gobert was Rudy Goberring. 1010 00:54:21,200 --> 00:54:24,320 Speaker 3: They couldn't win in the playoffs. They implo they rebuilt 1011 00:54:24,400 --> 00:54:28,200 Speaker 3: when Snyder's gone, Danny Ainge comes in, They're rebuilding their roster. 1012 00:54:28,320 --> 00:54:30,759 Speaker 3: They finished twelfth the last few years. I don't see 1013 00:54:30,760 --> 00:54:34,239 Speaker 3: that happening. I don't see that happening to Minnesota, Oklahoma City. 1014 00:54:34,239 --> 00:54:36,680 Speaker 3: I don't think they're going anywhere. I don't think I 1015 00:54:36,680 --> 00:54:39,120 Speaker 3: don't think two years from now we're gonna look I 1016 00:54:39,160 --> 00:54:41,879 Speaker 3: guess this would be three. I don't think three years 1017 00:54:41,880 --> 00:54:43,400 Speaker 3: from now we're gonna look back and say, man, you 1018 00:54:43,440 --> 00:54:47,080 Speaker 3: remember when Okse was the one seed and Minnesota pushed 1019 00:54:47,760 --> 00:54:51,080 Speaker 3: the Nuggets at the brink of extinction before they lost. 1020 00:54:51,560 --> 00:54:53,480 Speaker 3: I think both of these teams are gonna be around 1021 00:54:53,480 --> 00:54:56,480 Speaker 3: and have something to say for a while. But I 1022 00:54:56,520 --> 00:54:58,520 Speaker 3: don't think either one of them are moving on. 1023 00:54:59,320 --> 00:54:59,960 Speaker 2: And I've learned of. 1024 00:55:00,040 --> 00:55:04,400 Speaker 3: Valuable lesson by the way, in these playoffs, it's the 1025 00:55:04,440 --> 00:55:07,160 Speaker 3: Bernie Fratto Show, Bernie's out and Chris Plank sitting in. 1026 00:55:09,719 --> 00:55:12,000 Speaker 3: I have a benchmark. Take guys. It's something that I've 1027 00:55:12,280 --> 00:55:15,280 Speaker 3: stayed with my whole career. And I know this sounds wild, 1028 00:55:15,400 --> 00:55:18,719 Speaker 3: but in today's society, in today's world, it needs to 1029 00:55:18,760 --> 00:55:23,239 Speaker 3: be magnified more than ever before. These are seven game 1030 00:55:23,320 --> 00:55:27,560 Speaker 3: series losing. I mean again, we're talking about a team 1031 00:55:28,200 --> 00:55:31,439 Speaker 3: in Denver that just lost by forty and is going 1032 00:55:31,440 --> 00:55:35,160 Speaker 3: to be a favorite probably in Sunday's Game seven, right, 1033 00:55:35,200 --> 00:55:38,160 Speaker 3: I mean, it's just it's crazy. See it makes no sense, 1034 00:55:39,760 --> 00:55:44,560 Speaker 3: but I fell into the trap. I went against my 1035 00:55:44,760 --> 00:55:50,640 Speaker 3: own brain, mind, heart, whatever, And after game one of 1036 00:55:50,680 --> 00:55:53,719 Speaker 3: the Mavericks Thunder series. I was like, this is over, 1037 00:55:54,360 --> 00:55:59,080 Speaker 3: this is done. I mean, all that Luca does is 1038 00:55:59,640 --> 00:56:04,279 Speaker 3: complete to the officials, and he's hurt. 1039 00:56:05,080 --> 00:56:09,680 Speaker 2: He's hurt. There's no way this is the Thunder or 1040 00:56:09,800 --> 00:56:10,800 Speaker 2: another gear. 1041 00:56:11,719 --> 00:56:16,160 Speaker 3: It's done. Finished. Could put said the same thing after 1042 00:56:16,239 --> 00:56:18,600 Speaker 3: two games in Denver. I don't care that they're the 1043 00:56:18,640 --> 00:56:21,840 Speaker 3: defending champs. This thing is as our man Arnie Spanier 1044 00:56:21,960 --> 00:56:25,200 Speaker 3: likes to say, right K fig oh v E R over. 1045 00:56:25,480 --> 00:56:31,200 Speaker 3: This is done, finished seven game series. As long as 1046 00:56:31,239 --> 00:56:33,840 Speaker 3: you've got a game, you still got alive. And so 1047 00:56:33,960 --> 00:56:38,120 Speaker 3: that's where I've It's something I've been preaching. I feel 1048 00:56:38,200 --> 00:56:42,239 Speaker 3: like a who is the the preacher that cried and 1049 00:56:42,239 --> 00:56:44,560 Speaker 3: he's like, I have senned Jimmy Swagger. I feel like 1050 00:56:44,640 --> 00:56:47,960 Speaker 3: Jimmy Swagger. I have sinned against my own personal beliefs. 1051 00:56:48,320 --> 00:56:50,920 Speaker 3: I fell for one game in a series. You can't 1052 00:56:51,520 --> 00:56:55,160 Speaker 3: now again. The debate shows. Some of our shows, they 1053 00:56:55,840 --> 00:56:58,759 Speaker 3: they gotta do five shows a week, they gotta do four, 1054 00:56:59,160 --> 00:57:01,080 Speaker 3: so you're naturally gonna fall into some of these. 1055 00:57:01,080 --> 00:57:03,279 Speaker 2: She gotta have hot take, baby. 1056 00:57:03,480 --> 00:57:06,839 Speaker 3: But I've definitely I've learned my lesson on that if 1057 00:57:06,880 --> 00:57:08,880 Speaker 3: i hadn't learned my lesson before. I definitely didn't know, 1058 00:57:09,400 --> 00:57:11,560 Speaker 3: because the Thunder haven't been the same game, the same 1059 00:57:11,640 --> 00:57:14,239 Speaker 3: team since Game one, and it took three games for 1060 00:57:14,360 --> 00:57:16,880 Speaker 3: Minnesota to recapture that team that they had in Games 1061 00:57:16,920 --> 00:57:20,640 Speaker 3: one and two, and probably too little too late for 1062 00:57:20,680 --> 00:57:27,439 Speaker 3: Minnesota and probably too little too late for Oklahoma City. Now, 1063 00:57:27,480 --> 00:57:29,400 Speaker 3: don't ask me how I got there from talking about 1064 00:57:29,400 --> 00:57:31,560 Speaker 3: the Knicks and the Pacers. But here we are with 1065 00:57:31,600 --> 00:57:34,880 Speaker 3: the NBA Playoffs eight seven seven ninety nine on Fox 1066 00:57:35,200 --> 00:57:38,760 Speaker 3: eight seven seven ninety ninety six six three six nine. 1067 00:57:38,800 --> 00:57:41,720 Speaker 3: All Right, when we come back, Moe is in Idaho, Mo, 1068 00:57:41,880 --> 00:57:43,640 Speaker 3: you got to hang in there for me.

The way tire buying should be the 1077 00:58:11,760 --> 00:58:14,160 Speaker 3: whole crew is here. Bernie is out. My name is 1078 00:58:14,200 --> 00:58:16,600 Speaker 3: Chris Plank. Thanks for hanging out with us on what 1079 00:58:16,760 --> 00:58:20,080 Speaker 3: is now I guess officially a Saturday. We are one 1080 00:58:20,120 --> 00:58:22,160 Speaker 3: day away from two Game seven, so we'll we get 1081 00:58:22,160 --> 00:58:25,200 Speaker 3: a third Game seven in the NBA tonight. We'll get 1082 00:58:25,200 --> 00:58:27,880 Speaker 3: an update from KFE coming up here in just a bit. 1083 00:58:27,960 --> 00:58:31,240 Speaker 3: But we've been talking at eight seven seven ninety nine 1084 00:58:31,280 --> 00:58:35,160 Speaker 3: on Fox. Just the weirdest sports moments we can't remember. 1085 00:58:35,160 --> 00:58:37,960 Speaker 3: There's been a myriad of them. Obviously some obvious ones. 1086 00:58:38,760 --> 00:58:43,000 Speaker 3: There was, you know, a conversation earlier about the man 1087 00:58:43,040 --> 00:58:47,680 Speaker 3: Tito story that was weird. There was the craziness of 1088 00:58:47,720 --> 00:58:53,040 Speaker 3: the Jason Pierre Paul fireworks situation, which happened, you know, 1089 00:58:53,080 --> 00:58:56,560 Speaker 3: in the middle of the fourth of July. I mean, again, 1090 00:58:57,320 --> 00:59:01,560 Speaker 3: this is so unique because you just don't have a 1091 00:59:01,600 --> 00:59:05,760 Speaker 3: guy getting arrested and the circumstances being debated like they 1092 00:59:05,800 --> 00:59:09,160 Speaker 3: are and then show up to play in the game, 1093 00:59:10,480 --> 00:59:13,280 Speaker 3: in this instance, play the round. It just doesn't happen. 1094 00:59:14,320 --> 00:59:18,120 Speaker 3: But I will say it's been a fascinating conversation to 1095 00:59:18,200 --> 00:59:20,600 Speaker 3: try to figure out who was right and who was wrong, 1096 00:59:20,720 --> 00:59:23,520 Speaker 3: and what should have happened and what didn't happen because 1097 00:59:23,560 --> 00:59:26,640 Speaker 3: all of a sudden, we're all experts on traffic flow, 1098 00:59:26,720 --> 00:59:30,440 Speaker 3: how to handle fatalities, criminal investigations, and what's right and 1099 00:59:30,480 --> 00:59:34,880 Speaker 3: what's wrong. But Moe and Idaho has checked in early 1100 00:59:34,960 --> 00:59:37,320 Speaker 3: here at eight seven, seven ninety nine on Fox a 1101 00:59:37,400 --> 00:59:40,320 Speaker 3: retired police officer. He noticed some things in the in 1102 00:59:40,360 --> 00:59:42,640 Speaker 3: the Scheffler footage, and he's been kind enough to drop 1103 00:59:42,680 --> 00:59:48,520 Speaker 3: his to call. So good morning, Moe. How are you man? Yeah, dude, 1104 00:59:48,520 --> 00:59:49,040 Speaker 3: no worries. 1105 00:59:50,520 --> 00:59:54,560 Speaker 4: I had some comments a lot of Americans versus premises. 1106 00:59:56,880 --> 00:59:58,880 Speaker 4: I was a plot for thirty years in the town 1107 00:59:58,960 --> 01:00:02,760 Speaker 4: I lived in, dying about fifty five thousand. So I 1108 01:00:02,880 --> 01:00:06,720 Speaker 4: was also a military casement. As a military casement, that 1109 01:00:06,840 --> 01:00:10,320 Speaker 4: was the only training I ever had in directing traffic 1110 01:00:10,400 --> 01:00:12,800 Speaker 4: at any kind of the scene. And in fact that 1111 01:00:13,320 --> 01:00:16,680 Speaker 4: three years I found that people came to get really confused. 1112 01:00:16,720 --> 01:00:19,120 Speaker 4: At some He's trying to direct and I got knocked 1113 01:00:19,120 --> 01:00:22,240 Speaker 4: off of a tising t point that's probably control point. 1114 01:00:22,240 --> 01:00:24,720 Speaker 4: When there's a military station. They had to stand on 1115 01:00:24,760 --> 01:00:28,520 Speaker 4: these little boxes as an intersection. They got knocked off 1116 01:00:28,520 --> 01:00:31,800 Speaker 4: of him. But so I think that the police probably 1117 01:00:31,880 --> 01:00:36,440 Speaker 4: don't have a lot of training in that. Secondly, on 1118 01:00:36,520 --> 01:00:39,360 Speaker 4: their ring coats on the back of it. If there's 1119 01:00:39,400 --> 01:00:42,560 Speaker 4: a little piece in a video that says police on 1120 01:00:42,680 --> 01:00:45,760 Speaker 4: the very big letters on the front on the front, 1121 01:00:45,760 --> 01:00:49,120 Speaker 4: it doesn't say anything. They were probably facing towards Scheffeler 1122 01:00:49,200 --> 01:00:52,760 Speaker 4: from the front, so he doesn't know who they are. Thirdly, 1123 01:00:53,600 --> 01:00:55,880 Speaker 4: we got a guy there at one time, about twenty 1124 01:00:55,880 --> 01:00:59,160 Speaker 4: five years ago, grabbing onto a car and hang onto it. 1125 01:00:59,320 --> 01:01:02,640 Speaker 4: So you made the policy you don't do that, especially 1126 01:01:02,880 --> 01:01:05,080 Speaker 4: at that point. It was a mystermeanor you know, it 1127 01:01:05,160 --> 01:01:10,120 Speaker 4: didn't didn't obey the direction, so it was a mysteryanor 1128 01:01:10,840 --> 01:01:12,760 Speaker 4: so that you know, they drive the guy. 1129 01:01:13,720 --> 01:01:13,800 Speaker 10: Uh. 1130 01:01:14,400 --> 01:01:18,720 Speaker 4: I just you know, I'm usually on the side of 1131 01:01:18,800 --> 01:01:24,480 Speaker 4: law enforcement, but I just think that perhaps everybody was confused. 1132 01:01:24,720 --> 01:01:28,160 Speaker 4: He probably got his car window off, couldn't hear the guy. 1133 01:01:28,440 --> 01:01:31,200 Speaker 4: Then the guy's hanging on to his door, he's wearing 1134 01:01:31,200 --> 01:01:34,080 Speaker 4: a yellow coat and his front facing and he doesn't 1135 01:01:34,080 --> 01:01:37,800 Speaker 4: say police on it. What I think will happen is 1136 01:01:38,360 --> 01:01:41,160 Speaker 4: probably four of those five charges of the teabay did 1137 01:01:41,160 --> 01:01:44,360 Speaker 4: not see it always goes, including the caller and the 1138 01:01:44,520 --> 01:01:46,640 Speaker 4: probably pay it found you a to pay a little 1139 01:01:46,720 --> 01:01:50,320 Speaker 4: fine or whatever. And well, so I wanted to start 1140 01:01:50,320 --> 01:01:53,360 Speaker 4: off with this, and I progress that we can't forget 1141 01:01:53,360 --> 01:01:56,800 Speaker 4: them then on that died, the family sorrow they're going 1142 01:01:56,880 --> 01:01:58,560 Speaker 4: to That's just my opinion. 1143 01:01:58,680 --> 01:02:02,320 Speaker 2: No, No, I appreciate its the phone call MO. Did 1144 01:02:02,360 --> 01:02:03,080 Speaker 2: it sound like mo. 1145 01:02:03,240 --> 01:02:05,400 Speaker 3: Is so that he did he have the scanner going 1146 01:02:05,880 --> 01:02:13,280 Speaker 3: my man? Whatever it was, my man, mo is on it. Yeah, 1147 01:02:13,640 --> 01:02:18,360 Speaker 3: we have an overall training issue. I think in a 1148 01:02:18,400 --> 01:02:22,880 Speaker 3: lot of instances in our world where people are not 1149 01:02:23,080 --> 01:02:27,520 Speaker 3: necessarily trained the way they should be in security, maybe 1150 01:02:27,520 --> 01:02:29,680 Speaker 3: maybe even through a certain degree in police. I mean, 1151 01:02:30,760 --> 01:02:34,040 Speaker 3: I would say more than half of the people that 1152 01:02:34,160 --> 01:02:37,440 Speaker 3: work security at an event are people that. 1153 01:02:39,200 --> 01:02:41,320 Speaker 2: Are like us, that are up working right now. 1154 01:02:42,080 --> 01:02:44,480 Speaker 3: It's like, oh, well, this is an extra job that 1155 01:02:44,560 --> 01:02:47,440 Speaker 3: I needed to have to help pay my bills. I'm 1156 01:02:47,480 --> 01:02:50,240 Speaker 3: sure there's a certain amount of training that you go through, 1157 01:02:50,240 --> 01:02:53,000 Speaker 3: but it's not to the degree that you need. And 1158 01:02:53,080 --> 01:02:55,800 Speaker 3: traffic flow is a very specific thing, especially for a 1159 01:02:55,840 --> 01:02:58,919 Speaker 3: major event like that. So I would agree. I think 1160 01:02:58,920 --> 01:03:02,160 Speaker 3: you're onto something there. And I think I made this 1161 01:03:02,160 --> 01:03:06,080 Speaker 3: pretty clear. I'm very much on the side of law enforcement, 1162 01:03:06,880 --> 01:03:10,880 Speaker 3: but in this instance, you can't help. But wonder, all right, aid, 1163 01:03:11,000 --> 01:03:14,520 Speaker 3: did the officer go a little overboard and jumping on 1164 01:03:14,560 --> 01:03:19,200 Speaker 3: the car. Maybe, But how in that instance could Scotty 1165 01:03:19,280 --> 01:03:22,960 Speaker 3: Scheffler even drive like another yard with a dude glued 1166 01:03:23,000 --> 01:03:28,160 Speaker 3: to his car. That's so those two things, well, I agree, 1167 01:03:28,360 --> 01:03:30,240 Speaker 3: in a little bit over the top. I also wonder 1168 01:03:30,520 --> 01:03:32,400 Speaker 3: how you keep going? How do you not stop? Like 1169 01:03:32,520 --> 01:03:36,600 Speaker 3: right away? I mean you just you hear some guy 1170 01:03:37,000 --> 01:03:40,080 Speaker 3: thutted onto your car and you're like, no, keep going here, 1171 01:03:40,440 --> 01:03:45,320 Speaker 3: gotta keep rolling. It's it's it's a tragic story, man, 1172 01:03:45,840 --> 01:03:46,640 Speaker 3: but it's weird. 1173 01:03:46,840 --> 01:03:49,680 Speaker 2: It's just weird. I can't think of it. 1174 01:03:49,880 --> 01:03:53,800 Speaker 3: If anyone had Scotty Scheffler getting arrested before the start 1175 01:03:53,800 --> 01:03:56,800 Speaker 3: of the round on their bingo card, congrats, because I 1176 01:03:56,840 --> 01:03:59,640 Speaker 3: sure as hell didn't. And in fact, I think I 1177 01:03:59,640 --> 01:04:02,000 Speaker 3: heard my I think I heard Mike Harmon say this. 1178 01:04:02,520 --> 01:04:07,160 Speaker 3: If if you were to say, hey, one of the 1179 01:04:07,160 --> 01:04:10,520 Speaker 3: PGA guys got arrested before the start of the round today, 1180 01:04:10,760 --> 01:04:13,720 Speaker 3: the last dude you might have thought of with Scottie Scheffler, 1181 01:04:15,080 --> 01:04:19,120 Speaker 3: the wild story, wild story, We got more, we got more. 1182 01:04:19,160 --> 01:04:21,560 Speaker 3: Scotti Scheffler haven't played a lot of what he had 1183 01:04:21,600 --> 01:04:24,280 Speaker 3: to say yet tonight here on Fox Sports Radio, but 1184 01:04:24,320 --> 01:04:26,720 Speaker 3: We're still kind of dipping into crazy stories that have 1185 01:04:26,800 --> 01:04:30,520 Speaker 3: shaped our sports world over the last twenty to forty years. 1186 01:04:30,520 --> 01:04:32,880 Speaker 3: And I feel like we're just getting started. In fact, 1187 01:04:32,920 --> 01:04:36,280 Speaker 3: we are just getting started because Kevin Figures is rolling 1188 01:04:36,320 --> 01:04:39,680 Speaker 3: into the tiraq dot com studios with the latest trending updates. 1189 01:04:39,720 --> 01:04:42,120 Speaker 8: What's going on?

This is 1195 01:04:57,440 --> 01:05:00,000 Speaker 8: because the Indiana Pacers got twenty five points from Past 1196 01:05:00,000 --> 01:05:03,240 Speaker 8: Scalciakam in a one sixteen to one oh five victory 1197 01:05:03,640 --> 01:05:06,080 Speaker 8: over the Knicks on Friday night. Jalen Brunson did lead 1198 01:05:06,120 --> 01:05:08,760 Speaker 8: all scores with thirty one points, but was just eleven 1199 01:05:08,840 --> 01:05:11,840 Speaker 8: of twenty six from the field. In the NHL, Dallas 1200 01:05:11,840 --> 01:05:15,320 Speaker 8: defeated Colorado two to one in double overtime, taking that 1201 01:05:15,400 --> 01:05:17,880 Speaker 8: series four games to two and advancing to the Western 1202 01:05:17,880 --> 01:05:21,440 Speaker 8: Conference Finals.

In golf, as we mentioned, second round 1206 01:05:29,920 --> 01:05:32,680 Speaker 8: at the PGA Championship, x Ander Shofflee one stroke lead 1207 01:05:32,680 --> 01:05:36,080 Speaker 8: over Kalin Morikawa hours after his early morning arrest, World 1208 01:05:36,120 --> 01:05:38,800 Speaker 8: number one Scottie Scheffler shot a five hundred sixty six. 1209 01:05:39,160 --> 01:05:41,960 Speaker 8: He's tied at three strokes back along with Bryson De'shambeau. 1210 01:05:42,240 --> 01:05:44,560 Speaker 8: And baseball, the Dodgers beat the Reds seven to three 1211 01:05:44,600 --> 01:05:47,680 Speaker 8: behind home runs from Mookie Betts and shohel Tani Houston 1212 01:05:47,720 --> 01:05:50,320 Speaker 8: a five to four victory over Milwaukee for their sixth 1213 01:05:50,440 --> 01:05:51,640 Speaker 8: consecutive victory. 1214 01:05:52,000 --> 01:05:55,800 Speaker 3: Back to Chris Plink, Jason brings up a good one, Kevin, 1215 01:05:55,800 --> 01:05:57,800 Speaker 3: that hits a little bit too close to me. We're 1216 01:05:57,800 --> 01:05:59,680 Speaker 3: talking about some wild stories and we'll move on to 1217 01:05:59,720 --> 01:06:02,919 Speaker 3: the Nick and the Pacers from tonight. Barrett Robbins leaving 1218 01:06:02,960 --> 01:06:06,200 Speaker 3: the Raiders the night before the Super Bowl, going to Mexico, 1219 01:06:06,240 --> 01:06:10,040 Speaker 3: and no one could find him. But he wasn't He 1220 01:06:10,160 --> 01:06:14,960 Speaker 3: wasn't right. There were some chemically unbalanced issues that he 1221 01:06:15,080 --> 01:06:18,720 Speaker 3: for sure. And that was only one week between the 1222 01:06:18,800 --> 01:06:22,080 Speaker 3: championship game and the Super Bowl, So you know and listen, 1223 01:06:22,160 --> 01:06:24,240 Speaker 3: I'm not trying to say Barret Robbins should have played, 1224 01:06:24,520 --> 01:06:26,560 Speaker 3: but had it have been two weeks and maybe it's 1225 01:06:26,560 --> 01:06:29,920 Speaker 3: a different story. And as we all know, it's Charles 1226 01:06:29,920 --> 01:06:32,880 Speaker 3: Woodson I think has told the story. Then the Raiders 1227 01:06:32,960 --> 01:06:35,240 Speaker 3: changed the entire game plan the night before the swell. 1228 01:06:35,440 --> 01:06:38,240 Speaker 8: You know Lincoln Kennedy, who we won with I'm sorry, yeah, 1229 01:06:38,280 --> 01:06:40,919 Speaker 8: with Anthony Gargano for for years here on Fox Sports Radio, 1230 01:06:40,920 --> 01:06:43,440 Speaker 8: who was obviously on the offensive line with Barrett Robins, 1231 01:06:43,520 --> 01:06:45,400 Speaker 8: and said, yes, they were going to have a run 1232 01:06:45,440 --> 01:06:47,520 Speaker 8: heavy attack if you were I know you remember Chris, 1233 01:06:47,560 --> 01:06:49,959 Speaker 8: but you know rich Gannon won the MVP that year. 1234 01:06:50,120 --> 01:06:53,440 Speaker 8: The Raiders had a very past heavy offense the majority 1235 01:06:53,480 --> 01:06:56,200 Speaker 8: of that season, and Lincoln said, for that game, because 1236 01:06:56,200 --> 01:06:58,000 Speaker 8: they knew they felt that they had some power up 1237 01:06:58,040 --> 01:06:59,840 Speaker 8: the middle to be able to run against Tampa Bay, 1238 01:07:00,160 --> 01:07:02,840 Speaker 8: they were going to feature Barrett Robins up the middle, 1239 01:07:02,920 --> 01:07:06,000 Speaker 8: Tyrone Wheatley and really do a ground and pound attack 1240 01:07:06,280 --> 01:07:08,600 Speaker 8: towards Tampa. But once Barrett Robins went down and they 1241 01:07:08,640 --> 01:07:10,720 Speaker 8: had to go to their backup Adam True, who was 1242 01:07:10,760 --> 01:07:13,680 Speaker 8: a little lighter, they had to adjust on the fly. 1243 01:07:13,760 --> 01:07:16,000 Speaker 8: And again, this happened on Saturday night, the night before 1244 01:07:16,040 --> 01:07:18,720 Speaker 8: the Super Bowl. So this happened on Tuesday, and they 1245 01:07:18,760 --> 01:07:20,440 Speaker 8: had a chance to kind of work through a couple 1246 01:07:20,440 --> 01:07:22,800 Speaker 8: of things, and of course we all remember exactly how 1247 01:07:22,800 --> 01:07:24,280 Speaker 8: that thing, you know, ended up going. 1248 01:07:24,680 --> 01:07:25,240 Speaker 3: Fortunately. 1249 01:07:25,520 --> 01:07:28,480 Speaker 8: Yeah, by the way, speaking of Super Bowl foibles, let's 1250 01:07:28,480 --> 01:07:32,040 Speaker 8: we forget the Eugene Robinson situation. We're talking about guys 1251 01:07:32,400 --> 01:07:35,080 Speaker 8: going off the deep end on the eve of the 1252 01:07:35,080 --> 01:07:35,640 Speaker 8: Super Bowl. 1253 01:07:36,120 --> 01:07:40,840 Speaker 3: The ray Lewis story.

Again, 1336 01:11:31,920 --> 01:11:41,200 Speaker 3: I found myself absolutely positively glued to Pete Schrager's conversation 1337 01:11:41,360 --> 01:11:44,920 Speaker 3: with Mike North. Mike North is the schedule maker for 1338 01:11:45,000 --> 01:11:48,479 Speaker 3: the NFL.

I mean, there is no way Arnie and I, 1346 01:12:14,080 --> 01:12:16,040 Speaker 3: Arnie Spaniel and I do a show. I'm regularly on 1347 01:12:16,120 --> 01:12:18,280 Speaker 3: Fox Sports Radio Sunday nights from ten p to one 1348 01:12:18,320 --> 01:12:21,400 Speaker 3: a Central Time. Everything is in God's time zone, Central Time. 1349 01:12:21,920 --> 01:12:26,439 Speaker 3: And I remember after the Raiders be the Chiefs and 1350 01:12:26,479 --> 01:12:28,439 Speaker 3: there was I think, what we did? We have three 1351 01:12:28,560 --> 01:12:32,400 Speaker 3: Christmas Day games this year? When the ratings came out, 1352 01:12:32,960 --> 01:12:34,720 Speaker 3: I remember looking at the schedule and saying, well, it's 1353 01:12:34,720 --> 01:12:39,400 Speaker 3: a leap here, so there's gonna be Christmas is on 1354 01:12:39,439 --> 01:12:42,799 Speaker 3: a Wednesday. Arnie, I think they're gonna play Christmas games 1355 01:12:42,800 --> 01:12:44,639 Speaker 3: on a Wednesday. I think they're gonna have to because 1356 01:12:44,640 --> 01:12:49,120 Speaker 3: of the ratings. And sure enough they did the justification 1357 01:12:49,360 --> 01:12:51,240 Speaker 3: for the why and how they're gonna make it work 1358 01:12:51,320 --> 01:12:53,840 Speaker 3: is pretty fascinating.

I'm going to 1473 01:18:24,080 --> 01:18:28,080 Speaker 3: pay off at tease what Mike Norith was on the 1474 01:18:28,120 --> 01:18:33,120 Speaker 3: Pete Schrager Show, Little NFL Talk and well, again, in 1475 01:18:33,160 --> 01:18:35,439 Speaker 3: the weeds of scheduling, talk can be kind of boring. 1476 01:18:36,400 --> 01:18:39,680 Speaker 3: But I found this fascinating in going through the process 1477 01:18:39,800 --> 01:18:42,240 Speaker 3: of deciding how they were going to pick teams for 1478 01:18:42,280 --> 01:18:44,840 Speaker 3: the Christmas Day games. And then of course there was 1479 01:18:44,880 --> 01:18:46,599 Speaker 3: an even bigger concern in. 1480 01:18:46,560 --> 01:18:50,439 Speaker 18: That the fans have spoken right. Think about where Christmas 1481 01:18:50,439 --> 01:18:52,880 Speaker 18: has been these last what is a two triple headers 1482 01:18:52,880 --> 01:18:55,280 Speaker 18: heat to the last two years? For the last five 1483 01:18:55,360 --> 01:18:58,320 Speaker 18: years we're playing on Christmas. The fans are there, you know. 1484 01:18:58,439 --> 01:19:01,240 Speaker 18: Last year, I'm pretty sure the three games on Christmas 1485 01:19:01,240 --> 01:19:03,919 Speaker 18: average something like twenty seven to twenty eight million viewers. 1486 01:19:04,240 --> 01:19:08,360 Speaker 18: That's monumental numbers. They're there, they want the games, they 1487 01:19:08,400 --> 01:19:10,960 Speaker 18: expect the games from us. Now, but it's a Wednesday. 1488 01:19:11,000 --> 01:19:13,200 Speaker 18: We'll figure it out. Well, we figured it out. We 1489 01:19:13,240 --> 01:19:16,599 Speaker 18: play Sunday to Thursday in this league all the time. 1490 01:19:17,040 --> 01:19:19,840 Speaker 18: Could we play Saturday to Wednesday. It's really the same thing. 1491 01:19:20,120 --> 01:19:22,240 Speaker 18: It's a couple of short weeks back to back Sunday 1492 01:19:22,280 --> 01:19:23,280 Speaker 18: Saturday Wednesday. 1493 01:19:23,360 --> 01:19:24,639 Speaker 3: But it's doable. 1494 01:19:24,720 --> 01:19:27,280 Speaker 18: So early in the process we kind of figured out 1495 01:19:27,479 --> 01:19:29,720 Speaker 18: a path to how we could get there. The real 1496 01:19:29,840 --> 01:19:32,080 Speaker 18: challenge for us was finding the right teams because you're 1497 01:19:32,080 --> 01:19:35,640 Speaker 18: talking about this little round robin between four teams that 1498 01:19:35,760 --> 01:19:37,840 Speaker 18: all have to play each other, but they all have 1499 01:19:37,920 --> 01:19:40,439 Speaker 18: to have one home in one road, and they have 1500 01:19:40,520 --> 01:19:42,400 Speaker 18: to be four teams that we can think we can 1501 01:19:42,439 --> 01:19:45,120 Speaker 18: count on here in May, they're going to be playoff 1502 01:19:45,120 --> 01:19:48,599 Speaker 18: relevant and national television worthy seven months from now. 1503 01:19:48,640 --> 01:19:54,240 Speaker 3: Like that's wild, that's wild again? How the sausage? So 1504 01:19:54,880 --> 01:19:59,719 Speaker 3: what how the sausage is made? Is a wildly boring 1505 01:19:59,760 --> 01:20:03,839 Speaker 3: cop I mean, let's just so they got this computer 1506 01:20:03,960 --> 01:20:07,000 Speaker 3: formula out and see they put these But when you 1507 01:20:07,560 --> 01:20:11,040 Speaker 3: really drilled down that to do this on Wednesday, to 1508 01:20:11,120 --> 01:20:14,639 Speaker 3: play a game on a Wednesday, you need to find 1509 01:20:14,920 --> 01:20:18,200 Speaker 3: three team, four teams who schedule match up to the 1510 01:20:18,240 --> 01:20:21,680 Speaker 3: point that they can be in that conversation for a 1511 01:20:21,720 --> 01:20:24,600 Speaker 3: Christmas Day game, but also. 1512 01:20:25,760 --> 01:20:30,360 Speaker 2: Hope that they'd be pretty good. So if your four. 1513 01:20:30,200 --> 01:20:36,120 Speaker 3: Teams came up Carolina, New Orleans, Denver, and I don't 1514 01:20:36,120 --> 01:20:37,880 Speaker 3: know what New England heading into this year, you might 1515 01:20:37,920 --> 01:20:40,880 Speaker 3: be like, oh, we might want to pass on that. 1516 01:20:41,439 --> 01:20:42,960 Speaker 3: But you had to find a way to say, Okay, 1517 01:20:42,960 --> 01:20:44,439 Speaker 3: how can the Chiefs be a part of this? And 1518 01:20:44,720 --> 01:20:48,040 Speaker 3: they did, to their credit much much at twenty four 1519 01:20:48,120 --> 01:20:50,760 Speaker 3: Hour Tease.

We fight all 1540 01:21:50,120 --> 01:21:52,880 Speaker 3: day over whether or not the cop was in the 1541 01:21:52,920 --> 01:21:55,200 Speaker 3: wrong or Scheffler was in the wrong, because it's what 1542 01:21:55,280 --> 01:21:58,879 Speaker 3: we do.

Scheffler was 1553 01:22:38,080 --> 01:22:41,880 Speaker 3: just trying to get into the parking area and then 1554 01:22:41,920 --> 01:22:45,400 Speaker 3: all help brocluse, you know, before we move on past this, 1555 01:22:45,520 --> 01:22:47,400 Speaker 3: because k Thing's hanging around and we're going to talk 1556 01:22:47,479 --> 01:22:50,120 Speaker 3: some Lakers here, let me let me at least get 1557 01:22:50,160 --> 01:22:52,760 Speaker 3: you a little bit of what Scheffler had to say. 1558 01:22:52,760 --> 01:22:56,280 Speaker 3: In fact, Yeah, the fans were great. Not only did 1559 01:22:56,280 --> 01:22:58,160 Speaker 3: he shoot well, but the fans were on his side. 1560 01:22:58,320 --> 01:23:00,679 Speaker 12: It was really nice to fans where we're trus today. 1561 01:23:00,800 --> 01:23:02,160 Speaker 12: You know, I felt like they were a cheering extra 1562 01:23:02,160 --> 01:23:04,439 Speaker 12: allowed for me today and it was I know sometimes 1563 01:23:04,520 --> 01:23:05,760 Speaker 12: you can't really see it on my face, but I 1564 01:23:05,800 --> 01:23:07,880 Speaker 12: really do enjoy playing in front of the fans.

So Kevin figures, 1588 01:24:08,320 --> 01:24:13,200 Speaker 3: you gotta help me. Is this official now? Is the 1589 01:24:13,320 --> 01:24:15,680 Speaker 3: next one? By no means is it official? But is 1590 01:24:16,120 --> 01:24:19,599 Speaker 3: it as close as it can be to JJ Reddick 1591 01:24:19,640 --> 01:24:21,240 Speaker 3: being the next head coach the Lakers? 1592 01:24:21,760 --> 01:24:24,960 Speaker 8: I won't go that far because as of right now, 1593 01:24:24,960 --> 01:24:27,280 Speaker 8: at least for the people that talk to that I 1594 01:24:27,400 --> 01:24:30,000 Speaker 8: read that I'm hearing, yes, he is one of the 1595 01:24:30,080 --> 01:24:33,120 Speaker 8: leaders in the clubhouse, but the clubhouse is still filling 1596 01:24:33,160 --> 01:24:35,120 Speaker 8: up with many other candidates. It doesn't sound like this 1597 01:24:35,160 --> 01:24:37,640 Speaker 8: is something that's going to happen overnight or within the 1598 01:24:37,680 --> 01:24:40,840 Speaker 8: next week. So they want to cast a bit of 1599 01:24:40,840 --> 01:24:43,120 Speaker 8: a wide net, you know. The reporting is they don't 1600 01:24:43,160 --> 01:24:45,680 Speaker 8: want they want to interview outside candidates who they do 1601 01:24:45,760 --> 01:24:48,400 Speaker 8: not have familiarity with with inside the building because their 1602 01:24:48,479 --> 01:24:51,160 Speaker 8: previous head coaching hires, say for Frank Vogel, you know, 1603 01:24:51,160 --> 01:24:53,439 Speaker 8: whether it was Byra Scott or Luke Walton, Darvin Ham 1604 01:24:53,600 --> 01:24:56,360 Speaker 8: was an assistant years ago, people that they've had previous 1605 01:24:56,439 --> 01:24:58,519 Speaker 8: relationships with. They want someone to come in who has 1606 01:24:58,680 --> 01:25:01,040 Speaker 8: sort of an outside view of the organization and the 1607 01:25:01,040 --> 01:25:03,960 Speaker 8: inner workings and the roster and how it's going. So 1608 01:25:04,479 --> 01:25:07,840 Speaker 8: I understand the issue that some might have with JJ 1609 01:25:07,920 --> 01:25:10,599 Speaker 8: Reddick one number one, I'll say him not having any 1610 01:25:10,600 --> 01:25:12,599 Speaker 8: coaching experience. I'm not the biggest fan of it either, 1611 01:25:12,640 --> 01:25:14,280 Speaker 8: a more old school when it comes to sort of 1612 01:25:14,280 --> 01:25:15,680 Speaker 8: paying your dues as an assistant. 1613 01:25:16,160 --> 01:25:17,960 Speaker 2: But there's some presidents here for. 1614 01:25:18,040 --> 01:25:20,599 Speaker 8: Some success for people who have had success as head 1615 01:25:20,640 --> 01:25:23,400 Speaker 8: coaches without having prior coaching experience. You mentioned pat Riley 1616 01:25:23,520 --> 01:25:26,639 Speaker 8: last Hour a good example with the Lakers. Steve Kerr 1617 01:25:26,760 --> 01:25:30,080 Speaker 8: had front office experience as the general manager with the Sons, 1618 01:25:30,120 --> 01:25:33,080 Speaker 8: but certainly had no coaching experience before going to Golden State, 1619 01:25:33,479 --> 01:25:36,040 Speaker 8: and that has worked out well too. So and I 1620 01:25:36,080 --> 01:25:38,040 Speaker 8: believe even Mark Jackson before he got to the head 1621 01:25:38,040 --> 01:25:39,880 Speaker 8: coaching job with the Golden State and he did a 1622 01:25:39,920 --> 01:25:41,800 Speaker 8: solid job. I don't know if he had been an 1623 01:25:41,800 --> 01:25:45,880 Speaker 8: assistant coach anywhere either, So there's precedents for that. The 1624 01:25:45,960 --> 01:25:48,800 Speaker 8: issue is his relationship with Lebron James, because they just 1625 01:25:48,840 --> 01:25:53,200 Speaker 8: started this podcast together. There's some and I believe warrantted 1626 01:25:53,920 --> 01:25:55,800 Speaker 8: issue with the fact that he might be you know, 1627 01:25:56,360 --> 01:25:58,120 Speaker 8: you know, in his back pocket to a certain degree, 1628 01:25:58,120 --> 01:26:00,760 Speaker 8: who's actually pulling the strings here will it be Will 1629 01:26:00,840 --> 01:26:03,719 Speaker 8: it be JJ Reddick that I think that's a valid concern. 1630 01:26:04,040 --> 01:26:07,680 Speaker 8: I will say one thing. Listening to JJ Redick obviously 1631 01:26:07,800 --> 01:26:10,639 Speaker 8: very intelligent. His basketball i Q was off the charts, 1632 01:26:10,880 --> 01:26:13,400 Speaker 8: one of the better basketball analysts I think out there 1633 01:26:13,479 --> 01:26:16,000 Speaker 8: right now. He certainly knows the game, so I don't 1634 01:26:16,000 --> 01:26:17,760 Speaker 8: hold that against him now whether or not he's able 1635 01:26:17,800 --> 01:26:20,479 Speaker 8: to manage a locker room and personalities, you. 1636 01:26:20,439 --> 01:26:22,000 Speaker 2: Know which, honestly, Chris, and you know this. 1637 01:26:22,120 --> 01:26:25,800 Speaker 8: Nowadays, in professional sports, and particularly in professional basketball, it's 1638 01:26:25,840 --> 01:26:29,440 Speaker 8: much less about x's and o's and more about managing personalities. 1639 01:26:29,720 --> 01:26:32,000 Speaker 8: And that's something that he clearly has no experience in, 1640 01:26:32,360 --> 01:26:34,880 Speaker 8: which will be the biggest issue, the biggest drawback for me. 1641 01:26:35,160 --> 01:26:37,040 Speaker 3: In determining whether or not he's the right man for 1642 01:26:37,080 --> 01:26:41,360 Speaker 3: the job. So here's how I think I'm feeling. I 1643 01:26:41,479 --> 01:26:47,360 Speaker 3: love what you just said. I don't know why I 1644 01:26:47,400 --> 01:26:50,919 Speaker 3: am so anti this for the Lakers because of everything 1645 01:26:50,960 --> 01:26:55,320 Speaker 3: you just said. There is nothing about an X and 1646 01:26:55,400 --> 01:26:58,720 Speaker 3: no guy that is winning NBA games right now. It's 1647 01:26:58,800 --> 01:27:01,760 Speaker 3: just it's which teams want to play defense, right and 1648 01:27:01,800 --> 01:27:04,640 Speaker 3: if you have if you have a kind whistle, or 1649 01:27:04,680 --> 01:27:06,160 Speaker 3: you have a great guy that can go in some 1650 01:27:06,200 --> 01:27:11,240 Speaker 3: one on one battles and Anthony Edwards Nicola Jokisch there is. 1651 01:27:11,560 --> 01:27:15,200 Speaker 3: My point is not that EXA's and owing doesn't happen, 1652 01:27:15,360 --> 01:27:18,439 Speaker 3: but it's you need to have the dudes, and it 1653 01:27:18,479 --> 01:27:23,759 Speaker 3: feels like you need more of a therapist or somebody 1654 01:27:23,760 --> 01:27:26,920 Speaker 3: that can handle the egos. Then you really need X 1655 01:27:26,960 --> 01:27:30,759 Speaker 3: and No's. And I don't know if JJ Reddick knows 1656 01:27:30,800 --> 01:27:33,800 Speaker 3: that dude, I don't know how to put this, but 1657 01:27:33,960 --> 01:27:37,200 Speaker 3: like he just I look at him and I get mad. 1658 01:27:37,360 --> 01:27:38,760 Speaker 2: It's like, I don't know if it's a duke thing. 1659 01:27:40,840 --> 01:27:43,080 Speaker 3: I can't think of any other way, less professional way 1660 01:27:43,120 --> 01:27:45,320 Speaker 3: to put it than just looking at JJ Reddick and 1661 01:27:45,360 --> 01:27:47,400 Speaker 3: he just pisses me off. I don't know what it is. 1662 01:27:47,840 --> 01:27:50,040 Speaker 3: That's the duke effects it's I think it's the duke 1663 01:27:50,080 --> 01:27:55,320 Speaker 3: of I see him, I'm like, oh God, this jerk. 1664 01:27:55,560 --> 01:27:58,920 Speaker 3: I know. So I got to fight through that number 1665 01:27:58,920 --> 01:28:03,639 Speaker 3: one right, which is, oh, it's a flaw. It's very judgy. 1666 01:28:04,120 --> 01:28:11,080 Speaker 3: I understand, I'll where that, but I just it's funny. 1667 01:28:11,240 --> 01:28:13,000 Speaker 3: I'm all over the place on this because I am 1668 01:28:13,040 --> 01:28:16,439 Speaker 3: so very confused. Ian asked a great question during the 1669 01:28:16,439 --> 01:28:18,080 Speaker 3: break when I brought this up to him. He goes, well, 1670 01:28:18,120 --> 01:28:20,880 Speaker 3: who do you want? I don't know. 1671 01:28:21,800 --> 01:28:24,639 Speaker 2: I don't know who do I want? I want Mark Dagnall. 1672 01:28:25,280 --> 01:28:28,200 Speaker 3: I mean, if I'm being honest right now, I want 1673 01:28:28,240 --> 01:28:31,040 Speaker 3: the Oklahoma City thunder head coach. And I don't think 1674 01:28:31,080 --> 01:28:35,559 Speaker 3: that's happening. I don't know who I want. There's almost 1675 01:28:35,600 --> 01:28:37,800 Speaker 3: a part of me that was willing to say, hey, 1676 01:28:37,880 --> 01:28:41,840 Speaker 3: let's give Darvin Ham another year. Let's see what happens now. 1677 01:28:42,600 --> 01:28:45,840 Speaker 3: Obviously he hasn't been a candidate for other head coaching vacancy, so. 1678 01:28:46,000 --> 01:28:50,280 Speaker 2: That should tell you something. But I just I don't 1679 01:28:50,280 --> 01:28:51,080 Speaker 2: know how to feel. 1680 01:28:51,360 --> 01:28:53,240 Speaker 3: And I think part of it is because I just 1681 01:28:53,400 --> 01:28:56,960 Speaker 3: don't know who I want, and I feel like I 1682 01:28:57,000 --> 01:29:00,960 Speaker 3: feel like dudes like Dagnault. Gosh, yeah, I don't know 1683 01:29:00,960 --> 01:29:02,559 Speaker 3: who else you would put an out list of up 1684 01:29:02,560 --> 01:29:03,519 Speaker 3: and coming young coaches in. 1685 01:29:03,640 --> 01:29:05,800 Speaker 8: Yeah, I mean there's assistant names who've been thrown out there, 1686 01:29:05,800 --> 01:29:07,439 Speaker 8: Mike and Norid from Minnesota is a guy who's been 1687 01:29:07,439 --> 01:29:08,400 Speaker 8: an assistant for a while. 1688 01:29:08,479 --> 01:29:09,120 Speaker 3: Chris Quinn. 1689 01:29:09,120 --> 01:29:10,639 Speaker 8: His name has come up a lot because he's been 1690 01:29:10,640 --> 01:29:13,320 Speaker 8: an assistant in Miami and was there with Lebron and 1691 01:29:13,360 --> 01:29:16,200 Speaker 8: the Heatles and so Lebron has a previous relationship with him. 1692 01:29:16,840 --> 01:29:18,640 Speaker 8: What I'm interested in and he's His name has come 1693 01:29:18,720 --> 01:29:20,080 Speaker 8: up a lot over the last I don't know, five 1694 01:29:20,160 --> 01:29:21,840 Speaker 8: six years, and for whatever reason, I don't know if 1695 01:29:21,840 --> 01:29:24,920 Speaker 8: he doesn't interview well or what is Sam Cassell? Because 1696 01:29:24,920 --> 01:29:27,720 Speaker 8: he fits some of what you're asking. He's going to 1697 01:29:27,800 --> 01:29:29,920 Speaker 8: command the respect from the players in the locker room. 1698 01:29:30,120 --> 01:29:31,920 Speaker 8: You know, he's not going to back down from Lebron, 1699 01:29:31,960 --> 01:29:34,160 Speaker 8: Anthony Davis or anybody who tries to give him guff. 1700 01:29:34,160 --> 01:29:35,840 Speaker 8: He's one of the great trash talkers in the history 1701 01:29:35,840 --> 01:29:38,600 Speaker 8: of the sport. Tactically, I'm not exactly sure what he 1702 01:29:38,640 --> 01:29:39,960 Speaker 8: you know, what he would bring as a head coach, 1703 01:29:40,000 --> 01:29:43,160 Speaker 8: but just from a managing egos, Sam Cassell you think 1704 01:29:43,320 --> 01:29:45,479 Speaker 8: would be one of the best of all the names 1705 01:29:45,520 --> 01:29:48,000 Speaker 8: that are floating around, one of the best available names 1706 01:29:48,000 --> 01:29:48,400 Speaker 8: to do that. 1707 01:29:49,240 --> 01:29:52,719 Speaker 3: And there's there's not a guy right now in college 1708 01:29:53,080 --> 01:29:56,040 Speaker 3: that anyone seems to be kind of jonesing for either 1709 01:29:56,120 --> 01:29:59,960 Speaker 3: right There's no I was every so often the name 1710 01:30:00,280 --> 01:30:02,439 Speaker 3: Jay Wright comes up. I just don't think he wants 1711 01:30:02,479 --> 01:30:03,800 Speaker 3: to do that. I don't think he wants to coach. 1712 01:30:04,520 --> 01:30:05,960 Speaker 8: He would go back to college before I think he 1713 01:30:06,040 --> 01:30:08,080 Speaker 8: jumped to the NBA at this point, and I don't 1714 01:30:08,080 --> 01:30:10,719 Speaker 8: even I think he'd be great in the NBA. Yeah, 1715 01:30:11,080 --> 01:30:12,840 Speaker 8: but again I don't. I don't know if he wants 1716 01:30:12,960 --> 01:30:13,400 Speaker 8: to do it. 1717 01:30:13,479 --> 01:30:17,559 Speaker 3: I mean, coach K's that that ship done sales well, 1718 01:30:17,600 --> 01:30:20,040 Speaker 3: He's now consulting the Lakers on their head coaching position 1719 01:30:20,920 --> 01:30:22,880 Speaker 3: puts even more you know, own this on the JJ 1720 01:30:22,960 --> 01:30:26,240 Speaker 3: Reddick situation. Geez, here's a list of guys we're looking at. 1721 01:30:26,240 --> 01:30:28,360 Speaker 3: Coach K. What do you think. What do you think 1722 01:30:28,360 --> 01:30:31,200 Speaker 3: he's gonna say? Okay, fake man, I'm telling you right now, 1723 01:30:31,240 --> 01:30:35,559 Speaker 3: it's all It's all lining up, isn't it. I gotta 1724 01:30:35,600 --> 01:30:38,599 Speaker 3: start getting used to this. I got to accept this, 1725 01:30:39,479 --> 01:30:42,679 Speaker 3: and I don't. And it sucks because I can't come 1726 01:30:42,680 --> 01:30:45,040 Speaker 3: to you and say, well, I think they should get 1727 01:30:45,040 --> 01:30:47,600 Speaker 3: this guy and this is gonna work. Right now. I 1728 01:30:48,280 --> 01:30:51,960 Speaker 3: don't even listen to the Bootenholzer stuff. His press conference 1729 01:30:52,000 --> 01:30:55,040 Speaker 3: today in Phoenix. You watch that and you're like, I 1730 01:30:55,080 --> 01:30:56,760 Speaker 3: wish the Lakers would have went and got him, Like, 1731 01:30:56,800 --> 01:30:59,160 Speaker 3: who's that guy? But then you see what's happened in 1732 01:30:59,160 --> 01:31:01,600 Speaker 3: his last two stops. Yeah, he won a title, but 1733 01:31:02,120 --> 01:31:04,360 Speaker 3: he grinded a star led team to the ground now 1734 01:31:04,479 --> 01:31:06,920 Speaker 3: and again, I'm not in Milwaukee. 1735 01:31:07,000 --> 01:31:07,920 Speaker 2: I'm not there in Milwaukee. 1736 01:31:08,000 --> 01:31:09,920 Speaker 3: I don't know how that you know, from a beat 1737 01:31:09,920 --> 01:31:12,840 Speaker 3: writer or from guys had covered daily. I'm sure that 1738 01:31:12,880 --> 01:31:15,000 Speaker 3: there was, you know, many sides of that story, but 1739 01:31:15,040 --> 01:31:17,760 Speaker 3: that's that's kind of what you get when you don't 1740 01:31:17,800 --> 01:31:20,360 Speaker 3: follow it, like to every single second. I saw him 1741 01:31:20,360 --> 01:31:22,559 Speaker 3: as a guy that wore out his welcome. Same thing 1742 01:31:22,600 --> 01:31:23,439 Speaker 3: happened in Atlanta. 1743 01:31:23,680 --> 01:31:26,160 Speaker 8: The general belief in Milwaukee, at least was that, you know, 1744 01:31:26,360 --> 01:31:28,800 Speaker 8: Jiannis was done with him. So in today's day in Asia, 1745 01:31:28,920 --> 01:31:32,080 Speaker 8: a SuperStar's done with you, You're despite the fact that 1746 01:31:32,120 --> 01:31:34,160 Speaker 8: two years before they won the championship. 1747 01:31:35,040 --> 01:31:37,240 Speaker 3: I think there's a deeper rooted issue here for me too. 1748 01:31:37,280 --> 01:31:42,599 Speaker 3: K Fig, I don't know. I don't know if I'm 1749 01:31:42,640 --> 01:31:47,040 Speaker 3: confident in the future of the Lakers being built around 1750 01:31:47,280 --> 01:31:53,280 Speaker 3: making Lebron James happy and fair. Right or wrong, correct 1751 01:31:53,360 --> 01:31:57,200 Speaker 3: or in correct. That's the feeling you get whenever you 1752 01:31:57,280 --> 01:32:01,000 Speaker 3: see things like this playing out. Oh wow, look, this 1753 01:32:01,080 --> 01:32:03,879 Speaker 3: guy just started doing a podcast with the Lebron James. 1754 01:32:04,560 --> 01:32:06,960 Speaker 3: They seem to like each other. They wear their hats backwards, 1755 01:32:07,000 --> 01:32:10,639 Speaker 3: they're tight. Let's see if he wants to be the coach. Oh, 1756 01:32:10,720 --> 01:32:13,280 Speaker 3: his son's coming out. Well, this first round pick that 1757 01:32:13,360 --> 01:32:16,200 Speaker 3: we apparently refuse to give up in trades for guys 1758 01:32:16,240 --> 01:32:19,960 Speaker 3: like Kyrie Irving, let's go use that to draft his son, 1759 01:32:20,000 --> 01:32:23,479 Speaker 3: who again no offense to BRONI probably could use another 1760 01:32:23,560 --> 01:32:23,920 Speaker 3: year in. 1761 01:32:23,880 --> 01:32:26,320 Speaker 2: College, should use another year, maybe even two. 1762 01:32:26,560 --> 01:32:29,400 Speaker 3: So I mean, Kevin, I'm in a tough spot here 1763 01:32:29,880 --> 01:32:33,720 Speaker 3: because I love Lebron James and you can hate on 1764 01:32:33,840 --> 01:32:36,200 Speaker 3: the bubble title all you want, he still won a title. 1765 01:32:38,040 --> 01:32:40,040 Speaker 3: I don't know if I'm confident in hitching that wagon 1766 01:32:40,080 --> 01:32:42,759 Speaker 3: there When he has what a player option this year. 1767 01:32:42,880 --> 01:32:45,320 Speaker 8: Right which he's gonna opt out and sign an extension. 1768 01:32:45,439 --> 01:32:48,800 Speaker 8: I have very little doubt that he's gonna resign with 1769 01:32:48,840 --> 01:32:51,160 Speaker 8: the Lakers. Okay, for no other reason. Just look at 1770 01:32:51,160 --> 01:32:54,360 Speaker 8: the market, and there's very few teams that actually even 1771 01:32:54,400 --> 01:32:56,759 Speaker 8: have the money to give a maximum contract to a player. 1772 01:32:57,280 --> 01:33:00,080 Speaker 8: So Lebron James is not gonna take significantly less at 1773 01:33:00,080 --> 01:33:03,559 Speaker 8: this point to go somewhere else when he sacrificed a lot. 1774 01:33:03,640 --> 01:33:04,799 Speaker 2: He has his production company. 1775 01:33:04,840 --> 01:33:06,240 Speaker 8: We know a big reason why he came to Los 1776 01:33:06,280 --> 01:33:10,160 Speaker 8: Angeles was because of Yes, he wanted to win, Laker franchise, legacy, 1777 01:33:10,200 --> 01:33:10,799 Speaker 8: all that stuff. 1778 01:33:10,840 --> 01:33:13,400 Speaker 3: But we know he was already looking towards his. 1779 01:33:13,280 --> 01:33:15,479 Speaker 8: Next career too, So I don't think all of a 1780 01:33:15,479 --> 01:33:17,200 Speaker 8: sudden he's gonna leave all of that in the lurch, 1781 01:33:17,520 --> 01:33:20,599 Speaker 8: especially when there's not a giant amount of suitors out 1782 01:33:20,600 --> 01:33:22,639 Speaker 8: there that can really give him what he wants. So, 1783 01:33:23,000 --> 01:33:25,000 Speaker 8: whether the Lakers draft Bronnie or not, do I think 1784 01:33:25,040 --> 01:33:27,360 Speaker 8: they should Probably not. If it's the fifty fifth pick 1785 01:33:27,360 --> 01:33:29,280 Speaker 8: at the end of the second round, I guess you 1786 01:33:29,400 --> 01:33:32,160 Speaker 8: could go for it. Why not if that's gonna help me, 1787 01:33:32,200 --> 01:33:34,320 Speaker 8: if that's gonna help make him happy. Sure, So I 1788 01:33:34,360 --> 01:33:35,760 Speaker 8: don't know if that that part is as big of 1789 01:33:35,800 --> 01:33:37,200 Speaker 8: a deal, But if you look from just a roster 1790 01:33:37,240 --> 01:33:40,120 Speaker 8: construction standpoint, it will become increasingly difficult. Look, he's had 1791 01:33:40,160 --> 01:33:42,000 Speaker 8: a great He had a great year this past year, 1792 01:33:42,000 --> 01:33:44,160 Speaker 8: and so did Anthony Davis. And that's the insane part, 1793 01:33:44,160 --> 01:33:46,120 Speaker 8: the fact that he and Anthony Davis were as healthy 1794 01:33:46,120 --> 01:33:48,559 Speaker 8: as they've ever been and they still have to fight, 1795 01:33:48,600 --> 01:33:51,280 Speaker 8: scratch and claw in the to get past the play 1796 01:33:51,280 --> 01:33:51,799 Speaker 8: in tournament. 1797 01:33:52,800 --> 01:33:55,479 Speaker 3: Any of these guys they've drafted recently got a little 1798 01:33:55,840 --> 01:33:59,200 Speaker 3: Shay Gilges, Alexander development in him. Guys, anyone want to 1799 01:33:59,200 --> 01:34:01,320 Speaker 3: till I mean they think about SGA was the throw 1800 01:34:01,360 --> 01:34:04,320 Speaker 3: and in the Paul the uh Paul George trade. Any 1801 01:34:04,360 --> 01:34:08,160 Speaker 3: of these guys developed. So yeah, where we stand right 1802 01:34:08,240 --> 01:34:12,720 Speaker 3: now with the Lakers coaching search is it appears as 1803 01:34:12,720 --> 01:34:17,000 Speaker 3: if Sam Cassell is in this mix. It appears as 1804 01:34:17,000 --> 01:34:20,639 Speaker 3: if JJ Reddick is very much in this mix. In fact, 1805 01:34:20,680 --> 01:34:22,640 Speaker 3: I was reading I don't know if you know the 1806 01:34:22,680 --> 01:34:25,040 Speaker 3: guys over at Silver Screen and Roll, Yes, I do, 1807 01:34:25,240 --> 01:34:28,080 Speaker 3: Oh do you Okay? I was reading their story and they, uh, 1808 01:34:28,800 --> 01:34:30,920 Speaker 3: they had me sold that JJ Reddick could be the 1809 01:34:30,960 --> 01:34:36,120 Speaker 3: next pat Riley. Now again, I'll I'll kind of fall 1810 01:34:36,320 --> 01:34:38,679 Speaker 3: for any of those types of stories. Of course, could 1811 01:34:38,760 --> 01:34:42,120 Speaker 3: uh could Sam Cassell be the next Greg Popovich? Well 1812 01:34:42,160 --> 01:34:45,280 Speaker 3: I'll click on that and I'll read that absolutely, But 1813 01:34:45,320 --> 01:34:47,080 Speaker 3: I don't. I don't know who I want. And that's 1814 01:34:47,080 --> 01:34:48,559 Speaker 3: a weird place to be right now. 1815 01:34:48,640 --> 01:34:51,080 Speaker 8: Well, you also just consider the tenure of the most 1816 01:34:51,120 --> 01:34:53,960 Speaker 8: recent Laker coaches. I mean, Frank Vogel won a championship 1817 01:34:53,960 --> 01:34:57,120 Speaker 8: and lasted three years. Darvin Ham got to the conference 1818 01:34:57,120 --> 01:35:00,200 Speaker 8: finals last season, eliminated in the first round against by 1819 01:35:00,240 --> 01:35:03,600 Speaker 8: the way, the defending champion Denver Nuggets this year and 1820 01:35:03,760 --> 01:35:06,559 Speaker 8: got the acts. They haven't had a head coach for 1821 01:35:06,600 --> 01:35:08,960 Speaker 8: longer than I think three years in the last decade, 1822 01:35:09,400 --> 01:35:11,879 Speaker 8: three or four years in the last decade. So whoever 1823 01:35:11,920 --> 01:35:14,479 Speaker 8: they hire, are you really feeling that confident that they're 1824 01:35:14,479 --> 01:35:15,720 Speaker 8: going to be able to string this thing out? 1825 01:35:17,080 --> 01:35:20,080 Speaker 3: So answer one more question for me, and then we'll 1826 01:35:20,400 --> 01:35:22,920 Speaker 3: we'll move on to the actual teams that are still playing. 1827 01:35:23,360 --> 01:35:24,400 Speaker 2: Yeah, or at least tried to. 1828 01:35:25,200 --> 01:35:28,400 Speaker 3: But I was gauging a lot of the early part 1829 01:35:28,439 --> 01:35:31,240 Speaker 3: of the Nuggets Timberwolve series on how I wanted to 1830 01:35:31,240 --> 01:35:34,160 Speaker 3: feel about the Lakers playing tight with Denver, and I 1831 01:35:34,240 --> 01:35:37,840 Speaker 3: was truly concerned that the Lakers just lost a series 1832 01:35:37,880 --> 01:35:40,400 Speaker 3: to a team that had tapped out. But thankfully the 1833 01:35:40,479 --> 01:35:43,400 Speaker 3: Nuggets bounced back after the first two games. Game seven 1834 01:35:43,479 --> 01:35:48,559 Speaker 3: coming up tomorrow. Should I feel that this is still 1835 01:35:48,560 --> 01:35:51,479 Speaker 3: a core that can compete and this is still with 1836 01:35:51,640 --> 01:35:53,280 Speaker 3: Lebron and ad and let's see what they do with 1837 01:35:53,280 --> 01:35:55,960 Speaker 3: the roster that with the right pieces, this can be 1838 01:35:56,000 --> 01:35:59,320 Speaker 3: a team that is in that top three seeds and 1839 01:35:59,360 --> 01:36:01,000 Speaker 3: fighting for each championship next year. 1840 01:36:01,280 --> 01:36:05,800 Speaker 8: Can we see it? I thank coach, I can see it. 1841 01:36:06,360 --> 01:36:07,680 Speaker 8: I think they have a lot of things needs to 1842 01:36:07,720 --> 01:36:09,680 Speaker 8: go right for them. One, I still think Lebron and 1843 01:36:09,720 --> 01:36:12,080 Speaker 8: Anthony Davis have to remain healthy. I think Austin Reeves 1844 01:36:12,120 --> 01:36:14,040 Speaker 8: needs to take that next step if he's truly gonna 1845 01:36:14,040 --> 01:36:16,720 Speaker 8: be that third guy. I don't think Deangel Russell's coming back. 1846 01:36:17,040 --> 01:36:18,800 Speaker 8: He has an opt out, He's probably gonna take it 1847 01:36:18,840 --> 01:36:21,720 Speaker 8: and get more money elsewhere. Now you're talking about who 1848 01:36:21,760 --> 01:36:23,679 Speaker 8: that third guy is gonna be. If you're trading for 1849 01:36:24,000 --> 01:36:26,800 Speaker 8: Trey Young, Donovan Mitchell's name has come up, which if 1850 01:36:26,800 --> 01:36:28,920 Speaker 8: you can swing that, I think that'd be amazing. I 1851 01:36:28,920 --> 01:36:31,479 Speaker 8: don't know if Cleveland will do it, but if that's 1852 01:36:31,600 --> 01:36:34,040 Speaker 8: if that's something that's actually out there and feasible, I 1853 01:36:34,080 --> 01:36:35,519 Speaker 8: think that's something that will be able to put them 1854 01:36:35,520 --> 01:36:36,080 Speaker 8: over the top. 1855 01:36:36,520 --> 01:36:38,320 Speaker 2: But look, if they're able to stay healthy. 1856 01:36:38,479 --> 01:36:40,599 Speaker 8: Jared Vanderbilt is a key role player for them, one 1857 01:36:40,600 --> 01:36:42,639 Speaker 8: of their best perimeter defenders who they didn't have pretty 1858 01:36:42,720 --> 01:36:45,200 Speaker 8: much the entire second half of the season. Gave Vinson 1859 01:36:45,280 --> 01:36:46,760 Speaker 8: was a big time player for the Heat last year 1860 01:36:46,760 --> 01:36:49,960 Speaker 8: in their playoff front and barely played this yearterialized. Yeah, 1861 01:36:50,000 --> 01:36:52,559 Speaker 8: So if there's a lot of ifs, and there's gonna 1862 01:36:52,560 --> 01:36:54,240 Speaker 8: be a lot of ifs, especially when you're talking about 1863 01:36:54,320 --> 01:36:56,920 Speaker 8: Lebron who's forty and Anthony Davis, who has the body 1864 01:36:56,920 --> 01:36:58,920 Speaker 8: of a sixty year old. You get those guys to 1865 01:36:58,960 --> 01:37:01,160 Speaker 8: coming together and get the roster to stay healthy. There's 1866 01:37:01,160 --> 01:37:04,120 Speaker 8: no reason why they can't compete for a four to 1867 01:37:04,200 --> 01:37:07,320 Speaker 8: six seed in the Western Conference. Just know how competitive 1868 01:37:07,320 --> 01:37:09,599 Speaker 8: the Western Conference is, by the way, that's and by 1869 01:37:09,600 --> 01:37:11,479 Speaker 8: the way, coming into this playoffs, by the way, Chris, 1870 01:37:11,479 --> 01:37:13,920 Speaker 8: I mean, from one to eight, couldn't you have made 1871 01:37:13,920 --> 01:37:15,840 Speaker 8: a legitimate argument for any of those teams to make 1872 01:37:15,840 --> 01:37:18,680 Speaker 8: a deep run in the postseason. Yeah, so it's a 1873 01:37:18,720 --> 01:37:20,439 Speaker 8: really competitive conference. I don't even know if you have 1874 01:37:20,479 --> 01:37:22,000 Speaker 8: to have a top three seed. It'll help from a 1875 01:37:22,520 --> 01:37:24,960 Speaker 8: home court advantage standpoint, but you want to just make 1876 01:37:25,000 --> 01:37:27,559 Speaker 8: sure you're playing well and healthy at the right time. 1877 01:37:27,960 --> 01:37:30,759 Speaker 8: And unfortunately for the Lakers, they were not. And unfortunately 1878 01:37:30,800 --> 01:37:33,320 Speaker 8: for the Lakers, they ran into their kryptonite, which is 1879 01:37:33,320 --> 01:37:35,720 Speaker 8: the Denver Nuggets, who find a way to win by 1880 01:37:35,800 --> 01:37:38,240 Speaker 8: five regardless if the Lakers are up by twenty or 1881 01:37:38,320 --> 01:37:39,400 Speaker 8: up by thirty at halftime. 1882 01:37:40,520 --> 01:37:45,040 Speaker 3: And you mentioned gave Vincent when I said, you know, 1883 01:37:45,080 --> 01:37:48,479 Speaker 3: Harley had an opportunity. It wasn't because he socked. I mean, 1884 01:37:48,520 --> 01:37:53,599 Speaker 3: he had a knee injury issue, and I don't know again, 1885 01:37:53,680 --> 01:37:55,120 Speaker 3: I don't know if he can be a major part 1886 01:37:55,160 --> 01:37:58,320 Speaker 3: of what they're doing going forward, but he's pretty integral 1887 01:37:58,360 --> 01:37:59,759 Speaker 3: in that playing impact. 1888 01:38:00,200 --> 01:38:01,920 Speaker 2: He was a guy that made a difference for him. 1889 01:38:02,000 --> 01:38:04,160 Speaker 3: So yeah, and it's role players, by the way. 1890 01:38:04,200 --> 01:38:05,439 Speaker 8: I know, I know we have to get out here, 1891 01:38:05,479 --> 01:38:07,160 Speaker 8: but when you talk about these playoff runs, you know 1892 01:38:07,240 --> 01:38:09,080 Speaker 8: the stars are gonna play that the stars with the 1893 01:38:09,080 --> 01:38:12,080 Speaker 8: majority of the time, but usually it is your role 1894 01:38:12,080 --> 01:38:13,920 Speaker 8: players are the guys that really put you over the top. 1895 01:38:13,960 --> 01:38:16,320 Speaker 3: Look at Dallas and what they're doing. It's your PJ. 1896 01:38:16,560 --> 01:38:17,280 Speaker 3: Washington types. 1897 01:38:17,479 --> 01:38:19,160 Speaker 8: Yeah, Like I mean, Kyrie had a game where he 1898 01:38:19,160 --> 01:38:22,120 Speaker 8: didn't even play all that well, but PJ, yeah, Hardaway 1899 01:38:22,160 --> 01:38:25,000 Speaker 8: and Scott's scoring thirty points a night. So if you 1900 01:38:25,040 --> 01:38:27,680 Speaker 8: get those sorts of performances from your role guys here 1901 01:38:27,760 --> 01:38:29,880 Speaker 8: and there, that ultimately is what's gonna end up making 1902 01:38:29,920 --> 01:38:31,720 Speaker 8: the difference. So we can talk about Lebron and ad 1903 01:38:31,840 --> 01:38:34,400 Speaker 8: all we want, but until you get more consistency from 1904 01:38:34,400 --> 01:38:36,439 Speaker 8: a guy like a D'Angelo Russell if he comes back, 1905 01:38:36,520 --> 01:38:38,960 Speaker 8: whoever fills that void. They're gonna need those sort of 1906 01:38:39,000 --> 01:38:42,080 Speaker 8: players to fill those roles Austin reeves to be more 1907 01:38:42,120 --> 01:38:44,160 Speaker 8: consistent in the postseason. Those are the ones who end 1908 01:38:44,280 --> 01:38:46,439 Speaker 8: up making the difference when it matters to most in 1909 01:38:46,479 --> 01:38:47,040 Speaker 8: the postseason. 1910 01:38:47,960 --> 01:38:51,160 Speaker 3: So here's a couple of names again. Kevin mentioned these 1911 01:38:51,200 --> 01:38:56,519 Speaker 3: from Adrian Wojnarowski, Miami Heat assistant Chris Quinn, New Orleans 1912 01:38:56,520 --> 01:39:00,240 Speaker 3: Pelicans assistant James Brego, who was previously the head coach 1913 01:39:00,560 --> 01:39:03,960 Speaker 3: of the Hornets. Other current assistants on the list are 1914 01:39:03,960 --> 01:39:07,120 Speaker 3: Sam Cassell, he's with the Celtics now, Mike and Nory 1915 01:39:07,160 --> 01:39:09,840 Speaker 3: who had taken over with the injury to the Timberwolves coach. 1916 01:39:10,720 --> 01:39:14,240 Speaker 3: He's an assistant with Minnesota, and David Adelman, who is 1917 01:39:14,320 --> 01:39:17,960 Speaker 3: Rick Adelman's son. David Adelman is with the Nuggets. It 1918 01:39:18,040 --> 01:39:20,479 Speaker 3: seems like though JJ Reddick might be the guy. All right, 1919 01:39:20,520 --> 01:39:23,599 Speaker 3: when we come back to the teams that are playing, 1920 01:39:23,640 --> 01:39:26,200 Speaker 3: we'll talk about the Knicks and the Pacers and X 1921 01:39:26,320 --> 01:39:29,639 Speaker 3: right here on Fox Sports Radio. All right, welcome back 1922 01:39:29,680 --> 01:39:33,680 Speaker 3: into the tire rack dot Com Studios. K figg's got 1923 01:39:33,720 --> 01:39:37,479 Speaker 3: an update coming up here in just a bit. We're 1924 01:39:37,560 --> 01:39:41,080 Speaker 3: only three hours Friday and Saturday back to four hours 1925 01:39:41,120 --> 01:39:44,639 Speaker 3: tomorrow night, and Bernie is out this week. I'm Chris 1926 01:39:44,640 --> 01:39:47,160 Speaker 3: playing sitting and good stuff on Twitter. Throughout the show, 1927 01:39:47,200 --> 01:39:51,599 Speaker 3: we've hit a bevy of topics, including just weird stories 1928 01:39:51,600 --> 01:39:55,160 Speaker 3: and sports. After everything with Scotti Scheffler today, I did 1929 01:39:55,760 --> 01:39:57,519 Speaker 3: have to give a shout out to Lawrence on this. 1930 01:39:58,720 --> 01:40:03,280 Speaker 3: Lawrence writes, I've been listening to Ben Mallard nearly twenty years. 1931 01:40:04,560 --> 01:40:07,599 Speaker 3: The three things if Mallard did, it would have been 1932 01:40:08,280 --> 01:40:14,160 Speaker 3: Monopoly Police Academy Weekend at Bernie's. That's pretty good. That's good. 1933 01:40:14,240 --> 01:40:18,880 Speaker 3: Lawrence Scheffler was the ultimate power play of Do You 1934 01:40:19,000 --> 01:40:19,760 Speaker 3: Know Who I Am? 1935 01:40:21,160 --> 01:40:21,799 Speaker 2: Steve Wrights. 1936 01:40:22,840 --> 01:40:26,000 Speaker 3: It seems cops are trained to attach themselves to vehicles 1937 01:40:26,280 --> 01:40:28,639 Speaker 3: if they pull away from them during a traffic stop. 1938 01:40:28,800 --> 01:40:31,439 Speaker 3: I've seen this multiple times and it never works out 1939 01:40:31,439 --> 01:40:33,960 Speaker 3: well for the cop. Are they also trained to stick 1940 01:40:34,000 --> 01:40:37,080 Speaker 3: their finger in a gun barrel when pointed at them? 1941 01:40:37,880 --> 01:40:40,800 Speaker 3: I've seen that work for bugs, Bunny. Stevie, I've seen 1942 01:40:40,840 --> 01:40:43,400 Speaker 3: it works for bugs, Bunny. 1943 01:40:43,439 --> 01:40:45,120 Speaker 2: It's you know, it's wild. 1944 01:40:45,200 --> 01:40:47,880 Speaker 3: Because we're a talk show, so we've been able to 1945 01:40:48,560 --> 01:40:51,800 Speaker 3: with this Scotti Scheffler story have some fun with it. 1946 01:40:52,000 --> 01:40:55,759 Speaker 3: The memes were amazing, And by no means was Scottie 1947 01:40:55,760 --> 01:40:59,080 Speaker 3: Scheffler involved in the incident that led to a man 1948 01:40:59,120 --> 01:41:02,519 Speaker 3: losing his life this morning. But that's just still that's 1949 01:41:02,560 --> 01:41:04,080 Speaker 3: just the crazy part in all of this. It was 1950 01:41:04,560 --> 01:41:06,000 Speaker 3: a crime scene. They were trying to figure out what 1951 01:41:06,000 --> 01:41:10,160 Speaker 3: it happened. I'm glad that I'm glad that we had 1952 01:41:10,160 --> 01:41:13,200 Speaker 3: this storyline, to be honest with you, just because we 1953 01:41:13,240 --> 01:41:17,479 Speaker 3: needed the content from the PGA Championship, because I don't 1954 01:41:17,520 --> 01:41:19,559 Speaker 3: think I can do a I don't think I can 1955 01:41:19,600 --> 01:41:23,599 Speaker 3: do a story about the end of the Tiger Woods run. 1956 01:41:23,840 --> 01:41:26,360 Speaker 3: And I don't just mean run of success, I mean 1957 01:41:26,479 --> 01:41:30,920 Speaker 3: run in not looking like a fool. So I don't 1958 01:41:30,920 --> 01:41:34,559 Speaker 3: think my heart was ready for that. Maybe tomorrow night, 1959 01:41:34,760 --> 01:41:37,840 Speaker 3: and maybe tomorrow night it will be, but not for tonight, 1960 01:41:37,960 --> 01:41:41,400 Speaker 3: Not for tonight. All right, last night. Of all the 1961 01:41:41,439 --> 01:41:43,640 Speaker 3: things we haven't talked about yet, I've not brought you 1962 01:41:43,840 --> 01:41:47,840 Speaker 3: anything from the Pacers forcing a game seven in beating 1963 01:41:47,840 --> 01:41:49,040 Speaker 3: the New York Knicks. 1964 01:41:48,720 --> 01:41:52,240 Speaker 7: O'Connell cross sports to Jackson up top Siaka with a. 1965 01:41:52,280 --> 01:41:55,440 Speaker 3: Clean luck that he scores again from just outside the foul. 1966 01:41:55,240 --> 01:41:58,559 Speaker 2: Line ball game all Pacers for. 1967 01:41:58,680 --> 01:42:02,160 Speaker 8: York Dribbles out the clock and there will be our 1968 01:42:02,240 --> 01:42:04,960 Speaker 8: game seven Sunday afternoon in the New Order. 1969 01:42:05,880 --> 01:42:09,400 Speaker 3: So what went wrong, Tom Fibodeaux, Where did things go 1970 01:42:09,479 --> 01:42:10,160 Speaker 3: south tonight? 1971 01:42:10,400 --> 01:42:12,360 Speaker 16: You still have to make sure you're putting the work 1972 01:42:12,400 --> 01:42:16,439 Speaker 16: in to earn a win, and you're not gonna win 1973 01:42:16,560 --> 01:42:18,680 Speaker 16: just because you're at home. You have to put the 1974 01:42:18,720 --> 01:42:20,760 Speaker 16: work into it, and we have to play well. 1975 01:42:20,800 --> 01:42:22,920 Speaker 2: All right, it's looking ahead to game seven. Here is 1976 01:42:23,280 --> 01:42:24,360 Speaker 2: what went wrong tonight? 1977 01:42:24,680 --> 01:42:27,520 Speaker 16: Back against the Wall. You're gonna get urgency and desperation, 1978 01:42:27,680 --> 01:42:30,880 Speaker 16: and you got to match that intensity and you got 1979 01:42:30,920 --> 01:42:31,760 Speaker 16: to keep doing it. 1980 01:42:32,000 --> 01:42:32,200 Speaker 1: You know. 1981 01:42:32,720 --> 01:42:35,240 Speaker 16: Like I said, I like the way we started the game, 1982 01:42:35,640 --> 01:42:36,840 Speaker 16: but we didn't sustain it. 1983 01:42:38,880 --> 01:42:40,960 Speaker 3: I think I'm buying into the theory that he grinds 1984 01:42:40,960 --> 01:42:43,840 Speaker 3: his guys out. I think I'm buying into that theory. 1985 01:42:43,880 --> 01:42:47,720 Speaker 3: I know that there's probably some Timberwolf fans that are like, yeah, 1986 01:42:48,160 --> 01:42:55,120 Speaker 3: really finally, maybe some Bulls fans too, But I am 1987 01:42:55,280 --> 01:42:57,479 Speaker 3: I just think he's I don't know why that Brunton 1988 01:42:57,560 --> 01:43:00,599 Speaker 3: was still in the game. I don't know they kept 1989 01:43:00,680 --> 01:43:04,040 Speaker 3: Josh Hart inasmuch as they did late It's like it 1990 01:43:04,120 --> 01:43:06,439 Speaker 3: was over. At the very least. You can hate Mike 1991 01:43:06,479 --> 01:43:09,400 Speaker 3: Malone all you want, but the man knows how to 1992 01:43:09,840 --> 01:43:12,840 Speaker 3: wave the white flag. He and Greg Popovich. I know 1993 01:43:12,920 --> 01:43:15,360 Speaker 3: it's been a while since we've seen pop in the playoffs, 1994 01:43:15,640 --> 01:43:17,599 Speaker 3: but whenever he was done, I mean he was done, 1995 01:43:17,880 --> 01:43:20,280 Speaker 3: He's like, all right, let's go, let's just how can 1996 01:43:20,320 --> 01:43:21,960 Speaker 3: we use a running clock so we can get out 1997 01:43:22,000 --> 01:43:25,720 Speaker 3: of here? Not tibbs, No, no, no, You're gonna grind out. 1998 01:43:26,040 --> 01:43:31,280 Speaker 3: You're gonna get this done. And mister Excitement also talked 1999 01:43:31,320 --> 01:43:34,200 Speaker 3: about just the nature, the nature of the playoffs. 2000 01:43:34,439 --> 01:43:37,560 Speaker 16: This is sort of the nature you know of the playoffs. 2001 01:43:38,080 --> 01:43:41,040 Speaker 16: This is what you played for. You love competition, this 2002 01:43:41,200 --> 01:43:45,479 Speaker 16: is it, you know, heart fall competitive Oftentimes it comes 2003 01:43:45,520 --> 01:43:48,920 Speaker 16: down to a hustle, play a loose ball, whatever it 2004 01:43:49,000 --> 01:43:53,920 Speaker 16: might be. And so you're gonna get tested physically, mentally, emotionally. 2005 01:43:54,360 --> 01:43:56,160 Speaker 16: Then you got to be able to get through all 2006 01:43:56,200 --> 01:43:56,439 Speaker 16: of that. 2007 01:43:57,600 --> 01:43:59,280 Speaker 3: Is Uh, hey, Kate Thik, have you been able to 2008 01:43:59,320 --> 01:44:02,439 Speaker 3: get a feel on the series? I think this Pacers 2009 01:44:02,560 --> 01:44:05,880 Speaker 3: Knicks series before we get uh, before we get your update, 2010 01:44:05,880 --> 01:44:08,479 Speaker 3: and we'll hear from Rick Carlisle after it. I just 2011 01:44:08,600 --> 01:44:12,200 Speaker 3: I think game one was pretty good. Game one or 2012 01:44:12,200 --> 01:44:14,720 Speaker 3: Game two when they had the missed foul call late 2013 01:44:14,760 --> 01:44:16,439 Speaker 3: when the Pacers at least should have had a shot 2014 01:44:16,439 --> 01:44:18,719 Speaker 3: to win the game. That yeah, the game. 2015 01:44:18,560 --> 01:44:21,080 Speaker 8: One, because I remember that was the whole situation where 2016 01:44:21,120 --> 01:44:23,840 Speaker 8: Carlisle didn't complain. And then Game two is like, well 2017 01:44:24,000 --> 01:44:25,560 Speaker 8: I didn't complain every Game one, but I'm going to 2018 01:44:25,600 --> 01:44:30,680 Speaker 8: complain now. He talked about markets, right, markets, marketunity, but 2019 01:44:30,760 --> 01:44:33,280 Speaker 8: I I is this just gonna be Hey, home court 2020 01:44:33,320 --> 01:44:36,200 Speaker 8: advantage is going to be the difference maker, and both 2021 01:44:36,240 --> 01:44:38,240 Speaker 8: these teams are just they're gonna play their best ball 2022 01:44:38,280 --> 01:44:39,960 Speaker 8: when they're at home, because that's what it seems like. 2023 01:44:40,080 --> 01:44:43,640 Speaker 8: It seems like it. And my takeaway going back to 2024 01:44:43,720 --> 01:44:45,400 Speaker 8: last week, you know at this point this is this 2025 01:44:45,439 --> 01:44:46,960 Speaker 8: is when the Knicks were getting banged up. You know, 2026 01:44:47,000 --> 01:44:49,680 Speaker 8: they lost antonob Jalen Brunton at the hand and then 2027 01:44:49,680 --> 01:44:52,639 Speaker 8: he had the ankle. So eventually I just thought attrition 2028 01:44:52,800 --> 01:44:54,800 Speaker 8: was gonna end up catching up to New York home 2029 01:44:54,840 --> 01:44:59,479 Speaker 8: court advantage or not. So even going into going into 2030 01:44:59,479 --> 01:45:02,160 Speaker 8: this Sundays game. Now, now, look going back to Game five, 2031 01:45:02,160 --> 01:45:04,280 Speaker 8: when the Knicks played so well at Masis Square Guard 2032 01:45:04,280 --> 01:45:05,680 Speaker 8: and I thought that's where Indiana was kind of kind 2033 01:45:05,680 --> 01:45:07,040 Speaker 8: of put the clamps on it and pull away with 2034 01:45:07,040 --> 01:45:08,800 Speaker 8: this thing and to win it in six. So the 2035 01:45:08,800 --> 01:45:10,680 Speaker 8: way that the arrow is pointing at this direction, to 2036 01:45:10,720 --> 01:45:13,400 Speaker 8: your point is it seems like whoever, you know, whoever 2037 01:45:13,400 --> 01:45:14,800 Speaker 8: has the last home game, is going to end up 2038 01:45:14,800 --> 01:45:17,200 Speaker 8: winning this series, which is ultimately going to be the Knicks, 2039 01:45:18,160 --> 01:45:19,560 Speaker 8: even though you know, if you would ask me this 2040 01:45:19,640 --> 01:45:21,040 Speaker 8: last weekend, I would have told you, I just don't 2041 01:45:21,040 --> 01:45:23,600 Speaker 8: know if the Knicks have enough juice. We know Indiana 2042 01:45:23,680 --> 01:45:25,840 Speaker 8: and to the next credit, they've played well defensively for 2043 01:45:25,880 --> 01:45:27,960 Speaker 8: the most part in the series. Indiana is one of 2044 01:45:28,000 --> 01:45:29,960 Speaker 8: those teams who's, you know, one of the best offensive 2045 01:45:29,960 --> 01:45:32,400 Speaker 8: teams in the entire league, and they were going to 2046 01:45:32,479 --> 01:45:34,120 Speaker 8: go on a heater and they did that. I believe 2047 01:45:34,120 --> 01:45:36,720 Speaker 8: that was in Game four, if I remember correctly, where 2048 01:45:36,720 --> 01:45:38,599 Speaker 8: they just went off and New York couldn't do anything. 2049 01:45:39,080 --> 01:45:41,000 Speaker 8: So I thought Indiana had another one of those in 2050 01:45:41,040 --> 01:45:43,439 Speaker 8: them that didn't necessarily bear itself out in the numbers 2051 01:45:43,680 --> 01:45:46,080 Speaker 8: on Friday night, even though Indiana led big for the 2052 01:45:46,080 --> 01:45:48,200 Speaker 8: majority of the game. But yeah, the way this thing 2053 01:45:48,280 --> 01:45:51,400 Speaker 8: is shaping up, yeah, it really is hard to figure out. 2054 01:45:51,400 --> 01:45:52,840 Speaker 8: But I mean, look, if you were to ask me 2055 01:45:52,920 --> 01:45:55,280 Speaker 8: right now, which direction. I'm leaning just based on how 2056 01:45:55,320 --> 01:45:57,439 Speaker 8: the series has played itself out. I have to go 2057 01:45:57,479 --> 01:45:59,559 Speaker 8: with the Knicks, even though I don't feel fully confident 2058 01:45:59,560 --> 01:46:01,000 Speaker 8: in saying that, because I just they have to run 2059 01:46:01,040 --> 01:46:01,919 Speaker 8: out of gas eventually. 2060 01:46:02,040 --> 01:46:06,240 Speaker 3: No, and the Josh Hart injury sure doesn't help as well. 2061 01:46:06,240 --> 01:46:06,920 Speaker 3: That's another guy. 2062 01:46:07,560 --> 01:46:09,559 Speaker 8: You know, you're playing these guys, you know, thirty eight 2063 01:46:09,640 --> 01:46:12,160 Speaker 8: forty two, forty five minutes a night with a seven 2064 01:46:12,240 --> 01:46:15,280 Speaker 8: eight man rotation. If even that it's just difficult to 2065 01:46:15,320 --> 01:46:15,760 Speaker 8: hold up. 2066 01:46:16,280 --> 01:46:18,479 Speaker 3: It's Kevin Figures. I'm Chris Plank, come to you live 2067 01:46:18,520 --> 01:46:21,240 Speaker 3: from the tyrack dot com studios.

Game seven will 2072 01:46:30,560 --> 01:46:34,280 Speaker 3: be at Madison Square Garden tomorrow afternoon at three thirty 2073 01:46:34,280 --> 01:46:36,519 Speaker 3: Eastern Indiana.

Hey, listen, I just wanted to touch 2110 01:48:05,280 --> 01:48:07,439 Speaker 17: on a couple of things, the NBA and the NFL 2111 01:48:07,560 --> 01:48:12,080 Speaker 17: and Scheffler. If you let me, all you men you 2112 01:48:12,120 --> 01:48:16,040 Speaker 17: know the NBA, them guys were great athletes at a long, long, 2113 01:48:16,160 --> 01:48:22,160 Speaker 17: tough season. They play hard. If you don't have the 2114 01:48:23,479 --> 01:48:26,040 Speaker 17: three point shot, in my opinion, is ruined the game. 2115 01:48:27,400 --> 01:48:32,280 Speaker 17: And as far as the next superstar you have, somebody 2116 01:48:32,320 --> 01:48:36,120 Speaker 17: has to bring something to the table to be a 2117 01:48:36,160 --> 01:48:40,439 Speaker 17: superstar in the NBA, and nobody is bringing anything. I 2118 01:48:40,479 --> 01:48:43,639 Speaker 17: don't see anybody bringing it. What's anybody gonna bring? Corey 2119 01:48:43,720 --> 01:48:49,639 Speaker 17: brought the three pointer, Lebron brought Lebron. Nobody's bringing anything. 2120 01:48:50,280 --> 01:48:53,880 Speaker 17: Mar Sley Justin is on that make every dunk a three? 2121 01:48:53,920 --> 01:49:00,960 Speaker 17: Pointer as well. Think about it, You'd have superstar are guys. 2122 01:49:01,000 --> 01:49:06,120 Speaker 17: You'd have a whole new category dunk leaders scoring on dunks. 2123 01:49:07,120 --> 01:49:11,880 Speaker 17: It would really change a game. And also, the three 2124 01:49:11,920 --> 01:49:15,200 Speaker 17: point line only comes in effect the last two minutes 2125 01:49:15,360 --> 01:49:19,639 Speaker 17: of each quarter in the first half, the last three 2126 01:49:19,720 --> 01:49:23,719 Speaker 17: minutes in the third quarter, and the last four minutes 2127 01:49:23,800 --> 01:49:24,840 Speaker 17: in the fourth quarter. 2128 01:49:24,880 --> 01:49:26,759 Speaker 3: I see what you did there. It would still confuse 2129 01:49:26,840 --> 01:49:30,760 Speaker 3: me too much. I'm not saying I'm necessarily against the idea, 2130 01:49:30,960 --> 01:49:33,920 Speaker 3: but unfortunately I don't think it's going anywhere. 2131 01:49:33,920 --> 01:49:37,120 Speaker 17: Stanley, Well, that'll change a game. But hey, how about 2132 01:49:37,120 --> 01:49:41,000 Speaker 17: the NFL listen, Uh, it's really watered down. But I'm 2133 01:49:41,040 --> 01:49:44,479 Speaker 17: excited about this kickoff thing. But you know, if I'm 2134 01:49:44,479 --> 01:49:48,439 Speaker 17: a special teams coach, I'm looking my chops. What do 2135 01:49:48,439 --> 01:49:51,679 Speaker 17: you guys think? Yeah, I mean, first of the all, 2136 01:49:51,800 --> 01:49:55,400 Speaker 17: check it out. You don't have to kick. If I'm 2137 01:49:55,400 --> 01:49:59,600 Speaker 17: a special teams coach, you don't have to kick the 2138 01:49:59,640 --> 01:50:04,080 Speaker 17: ball to the guy. I'm gonna kick off the wildest, 2139 01:50:04,520 --> 01:50:10,639 Speaker 17: curviest balunceest hard to handle kickoff, and the guy might 2140 01:50:10,840 --> 01:50:14,000 Speaker 17: as soon as he touches it. Then everybody goes and 2141 01:50:14,640 --> 01:50:17,439 Speaker 17: I look for kickoffs to be hard to handle. And 2142 01:50:18,520 --> 01:50:22,080 Speaker 17: the last thing about Scheffler, I got a nickname for him. 2143 01:50:23,800 --> 01:50:27,519 Speaker 17: Go for it, Mugs Scheffler. How about that? 2144 01:50:27,960 --> 01:50:31,320 Speaker 3: I like it. Thanks to appreciate the phone call, Mugs. 2145 01:50:33,479 --> 01:50:41,080 Speaker 3: First of all, I'm warning you, guys, Stanley crew, I 2146 01:50:41,120 --> 01:50:45,439 Speaker 3: can get into some nerdy rules conversations. I really can't. 2147 01:50:46,080 --> 01:50:50,400 Speaker 3: But Buddy, I don't think the three point LINEES is 2148 01:50:50,479 --> 01:50:52,479 Speaker 3: going to have any rules changed by any stretch of 2149 01:50:52,479 --> 01:50:53,559 Speaker 3: the imagination for it. 2150 01:50:54,800 --> 01:50:57,920 Speaker 2: Sorry, I think we kind of are. 2151 01:50:57,840 --> 01:51:00,840 Speaker 3: Where we are. I don't think they could push it 2152 01:51:00,920 --> 01:51:05,320 Speaker 3: back any further, really, but I do like the idea 2153 01:51:05,720 --> 01:51:08,160 Speaker 3: of a dunk counting for three. That might be nice. 2154 01:51:08,439 --> 01:51:09,400 Speaker 3: That might be nice. 2155 01:51:09,560 --> 01:51:10,479 Speaker 2: Okay, let me. 2156 01:51:10,479 --> 01:51:12,800 Speaker 3: Let me sell you one thing that someone if you're 2157 01:51:12,800 --> 01:51:14,800 Speaker 3: gonna use the phrase they can't bring, and I've got 2158 01:51:14,880 --> 01:51:17,960 Speaker 3: I got something that they can bring. Wim bin Yama 2159 01:51:18,040 --> 01:51:21,519 Speaker 3: bringing back the big guy. I just I think that 2160 01:51:21,840 --> 01:51:25,519 Speaker 3: he's got a chance to be a transcendent superstar. Now 2161 01:51:25,560 --> 01:51:28,519 Speaker 3: he's still on a team that stinks, and hopefully san 2162 01:51:28,520 --> 01:51:34,439 Speaker 3: Antonio can do something about that. But he's he's something else. 2163 01:51:35,280 --> 01:51:39,040 Speaker 3: So I would say not necessarily fighting you, Stanley, but 2164 01:51:39,120 --> 01:51:42,759 Speaker 3: I would say give Wim bin Yam an opportunity. Maybe 2165 01:51:42,840 --> 01:51:46,040 Speaker 3: San Antonio can get better next year. And I think 2166 01:51:46,080 --> 01:51:48,240 Speaker 3: that's someone who's got a little juice. I think Anthony 2167 01:51:48,320 --> 01:51:52,960 Speaker 3: Edwards does. I mean, come on, Anthony Edwards may have 2168 01:51:53,000 --> 01:51:56,479 Speaker 3: given us the greatest quote of the postseason so. 2169 01:51:56,520 --> 01:51:58,960 Speaker 2: Far after. 2170 01:52:00,280 --> 01:52:04,200 Speaker 3: After they won last night when and the win of course, 2171 01:52:04,240 --> 01:52:08,160 Speaker 3: then moves them on to a game seven. The question 2172 01:52:08,479 --> 01:52:14,280 Speaker 3: was if he had really told a security guard that 2173 01:52:14,439 --> 01:52:18,000 Speaker 3: he was he was going to uh, he was going 2174 01:52:18,080 --> 01:52:22,000 Speaker 3: to be back. Hey, we'll be back. You guys better 2175 01:52:22,040 --> 01:52:24,120 Speaker 3: be ready. We're going to be back for a game seven. 2176 01:52:24,280 --> 01:52:26,719 Speaker 3: I mean, come on, dude's already talking trash. 2177 01:52:27,000 --> 01:52:30,160 Speaker 7: Did you really tell the locker room staffer in Denver 2178 01:52:30,200 --> 01:52:30,920 Speaker 7: you were going to be back? 2179 01:52:31,320 --> 01:52:33,439 Speaker 3: Yeah? They knowed I was in there. 2180 01:52:33,600 --> 01:52:34,280 Speaker 10: Yeah, I told him. 2181 01:52:34,280 --> 01:52:38,200 Speaker 3: I said, I see y'all lose for Game seven. He's 2182 01:52:38,240 --> 01:52:44,080 Speaker 3: talking trash with the best of them already already. So, Stanley, 2183 01:52:45,080 --> 01:52:48,679 Speaker 3: my bigger confusion with the NBA is not the star power. 2184 01:52:49,520 --> 01:52:52,760 Speaker 3: My bigger confusion, or at least my perception of what 2185 01:52:52,840 --> 01:52:55,439 Speaker 3: can be star power. Why is it not resonating? Why 2186 01:52:55,439 --> 01:52:59,320 Speaker 3: are these numbers not going through the roof? Why you know, 2187 01:52:59,439 --> 01:53:02,000 Speaker 3: Arnie and I talk about this, and I think many 2188 01:53:02,040 --> 01:53:04,640 Speaker 3: of us have a segment like carved out for it 2189 01:53:04,720 --> 01:53:05,599 Speaker 3: every time that. 2190 01:53:05,600 --> 01:53:06,320 Speaker 2: We have a show. 2191 01:53:07,520 --> 01:53:11,840 Speaker 3: The Stanley Cup Playoffs continue to be more entertaining as 2192 01:53:11,880 --> 01:53:13,840 Speaker 3: a whole than the NBA. 2193 01:53:13,640 --> 01:53:17,920 Speaker 2: Playoffs, and yet no one still seems to care. 2194 01:53:18,240 --> 01:53:20,799 Speaker 3: We had a game that went to double overtime tonight, 2195 01:53:21,600 --> 01:53:24,680 Speaker 3: that had a terrible call in the first overtime that 2196 01:53:24,800 --> 01:53:28,400 Speaker 3: nearly cost the Stars the game and maybe then potentially 2197 01:53:28,439 --> 01:53:32,960 Speaker 3: their their season in a Game seven. But tonight has 2198 01:53:33,000 --> 01:53:37,360 Speaker 3: been more about, obviously the Knicks and some things in 2199 01:53:37,400 --> 01:53:40,840 Speaker 3: the NBA. We even talked to Lakers. Do I think 2200 01:53:40,880 --> 01:53:42,439 Speaker 3: that we could do it? And I know Bernie talks 2201 01:53:42,439 --> 01:53:44,680 Speaker 3: a lot of hockey, but do I think we could 2202 01:53:44,720 --> 01:53:49,400 Speaker 3: do a show where we would nationally, Hey, let's open 2203 01:53:49,479 --> 01:53:51,800 Speaker 3: up to take some of your hockey calls. Absolutely, because 2204 01:53:51,800 --> 01:53:53,880 Speaker 3: we're on in so many markets that are passionate and 2205 01:53:53,880 --> 01:53:58,080 Speaker 3: fiery about hockey. Problem is, then what would happen to 2206 01:53:58,120 --> 01:54:02,000 Speaker 3: the rest the rest of the United States, the rest 2207 01:54:02,040 --> 01:54:04,240 Speaker 3: of the world, who doesn't seem to be as tied 2208 01:54:04,280 --> 01:54:07,120 Speaker 3: in on the Stanley Cup Playoffs as the product would 2209 01:54:07,120 --> 01:54:10,160 Speaker 3: warrant they should be every year? Every year, I feel 2210 01:54:10,200 --> 01:54:12,120 Speaker 3: like we have this fight all right when we come 2211 01:54:12,160 --> 01:54:16,440 Speaker 3: back to the tyrack dot Com studios. The mindset afterwards 2212 01:54:16,880 --> 01:54:23,360 Speaker 3: of one Rick Carlisle does he believe? And Luca changed 2213 01:54:23,360 --> 01:54:27,200 Speaker 3: his game in game five? Will he do the same 2214 01:54:27,479 --> 01:54:29,560 Speaker 3: in game six? We'll talk about it next year on 2215 01:54:29,600 --> 01:54:35,160 Speaker 3: Fox Sports Radio Fast Show Tonight. Thanks, kfig have fun 2216 01:54:35,240 --> 01:54:39,280 Speaker 3: with the return of the fellas, Aunt and Jason a back. 2217 01:54:40,360 --> 01:54:42,880 Speaker 2: We are we all three? 2218 01:54:43,840 --> 01:54:46,440 Speaker 3: Kik K think? Are we all three in agreement that 2219 01:54:46,920 --> 01:54:49,840 Speaker 3: we're not gonna win a title with Gardner Minshew or 2220 01:54:50,280 --> 01:54:52,640 Speaker 3: ain't O'Connell or do we believe? Is there a is 2221 01:54:52,680 --> 01:54:56,640 Speaker 3: there a third hat that we can pick from here? Yeah? 2222 01:54:56,720 --> 01:54:58,400 Speaker 8: I mean, look, I'm not gonna act like I haven't 2223 01:54:58,400 --> 01:54:59,680 Speaker 8: had the miracle season. 2224 01:54:59,720 --> 01:55:01,000 Speaker 3: Mons go off of my head. 2225 01:55:01,000 --> 01:55:03,320 Speaker 8: Whether the Raiders, you know, end up winning the Super Bowl, 2226 01:55:03,400 --> 01:55:06,280 Speaker 8: but I'd say that's highly unlikely. I think the best 2227 01:55:06,320 --> 01:55:08,520 Speaker 8: you can hope for is that the defense continues to grow. 2228 01:55:08,920 --> 01:55:12,400 Speaker 8: Maybe Minshew's half decent. Look, look, I guess in a 2229 01:55:12,400 --> 01:55:15,120 Speaker 8: perfect world, Aidan O'Connell has a phenomenal sophomore season and 2230 01:55:15,160 --> 01:55:18,120 Speaker 8: it really rustles away at the starting job, and they 2231 01:55:18,160 --> 01:55:21,280 Speaker 8: have a good year, you win eight nine, possibly ten games, 2232 01:55:21,280 --> 01:55:23,200 Speaker 8: compete for a wild card spot, and see what happens. 2233 01:55:23,240 --> 01:55:25,520 Speaker 8: I think that's probably a best case scenario at this point. 2234 01:55:25,760 --> 01:55:28,880 Speaker 3: I'm here with you. I'm here with you, So keep 2235 01:55:28,960 --> 01:55:32,200 Speaker 3: up alive, baby, that's right, keep up alive. I will say, 2236 01:55:33,360 --> 01:55:38,880 Speaker 3: there is nothing, absolutely nothing more frustrating than when you 2237 01:55:39,000 --> 01:55:43,440 Speaker 3: have a team like the Lakers, right. I make very 2238 01:55:43,440 --> 01:55:45,600 Speaker 3: clear I'm a fan of that. I have head coaching 2239 01:55:45,680 --> 01:55:49,840 Speaker 3: vacancy and I don't know who I want to be 2240 01:55:49,920 --> 01:55:52,880 Speaker 3: the head coach. Like I don't know, there's no one 2241 01:55:52,880 --> 01:55:55,480 Speaker 3: out there, let Ron coach team. I don't care go 2242 01:55:55,520 --> 01:55:59,320 Speaker 3: win games. Here we are talking about football with the Raiders, 2243 01:55:59,440 --> 01:56:02,400 Speaker 3: and I'm gonna be very similar situation with my team, Kevin, 2244 01:56:02,600 --> 01:56:04,800 Speaker 3: because I don't know who I want to be my 2245 01:56:04,880 --> 01:56:07,200 Speaker 3: quarterback of the options that I have available of me. 2246 01:56:07,240 --> 01:56:12,480 Speaker 3: It's like, can Brady come out of retirement? Possibility couldn't hurt. 2247 01:56:12,600 --> 01:56:16,560 Speaker 3: But that fun good to see micro center back. So 2248 01:56:17,600 --> 01:56:19,920 Speaker 3: I feel like we need to wrap with actually tipping 2249 01:56:19,920 --> 01:56:22,440 Speaker 3: our cap to the Anana Pacers because here we are 2250 01:56:23,520 --> 01:56:26,560 Speaker 3: three hours of live radio programming. I don't feel like 2251 01:56:26,640 --> 01:56:31,080 Speaker 3: we've done our due in giving kudos to NDY four 2252 01:56:31,680 --> 01:56:33,720 Speaker 3: taking advantage of the opportunity at home. 2253 01:56:35,200 --> 01:56:37,680 Speaker 2: Did they did they try to. 2254 01:56:37,600 --> 01:56:41,480 Speaker 3: Blow the game a few times midway through that'd be 2255 01:56:41,560 --> 01:56:42,320 Speaker 3: like the third quarter. 2256 01:56:42,400 --> 01:56:47,280 Speaker 2: Maybe they tried, but they were ready. 2257 01:56:47,920 --> 01:56:50,640 Speaker 7: They were ready, everything possible to get them ready. But 2258 01:56:50,720 --> 01:56:54,040 Speaker 7: it's you know, in game sevens it comes down to 2259 01:56:54,160 --> 01:56:57,280 Speaker 7: compete level and you know how well you're tied together. 2260 01:56:57,640 --> 01:57:02,760 Speaker 3: And they're going to try to keep the celebrations going. 2261 01:57:03,400 --> 01:57:06,920 Speaker 3: But at the very minimum, No, there's a bigger task 2262 01:57:06,920 --> 01:57:07,320 Speaker 3: at hand. 2263 01:57:07,640 --> 01:57:10,320 Speaker 7: Answer around patting yourself on the back. I mean, that's 2264 01:57:10,360 --> 01:57:12,840 Speaker 7: what gets your ass kicked the next game. So you know, 2265 01:57:12,880 --> 01:57:16,120 Speaker 7: we're going to keep our celebrations very short, if at all, 2266 01:57:16,240 --> 01:57:19,440 Speaker 7: after this game and get ready for Sunday afternoon. 2267 01:57:19,560 --> 01:57:23,720 Speaker 3: Yeah, solid win. We'll have a Sunday Game seven. Will 2268 01:57:23,760 --> 01:57:27,080 Speaker 3: we have another Game seven in the NBA? So we 2269 01:57:27,120 --> 01:57:32,200 Speaker 3: have Game seven's in the Nuggets t Wolves series. We 2270 01:57:32,280 --> 01:57:34,800 Speaker 3: have Game seven of that Pacers Nick series that we've 2271 01:57:34,840 --> 01:57:38,760 Speaker 3: been talking about. Will we see a Game seven in 2272 01:57:38,840 --> 01:57:44,360 Speaker 3: the thunder Dallas Mavericks series. Now, something wild happened in 2273 01:57:44,440 --> 01:57:51,240 Speaker 3: the Game five win for Dallas in Oklahoma City. Lucas 2274 01:57:51,240 --> 01:57:56,280 Speaker 3: stopped complaining about the officials. He stopped whining after every 2275 01:57:56,280 --> 01:57:59,960 Speaker 3: single call. It was wild to see if you've been 2276 01:58:00,040 --> 01:58:04,920 Speaker 3: paying attention to this series, and apparently Charles Barkley had 2277 01:58:04,960 --> 01:58:08,680 Speaker 3: been critical of it, so why not ask Luke about it? Well, 2278 01:58:08,720 --> 01:58:10,760 Speaker 3: I love that show. I love those four guys. I 2279 01:58:10,840 --> 01:58:12,400 Speaker 3: always watch it all the games. 2280 01:58:13,160 --> 01:58:14,840 Speaker 4: Well maybe next time if you can say it again 2281 01:58:14,880 --> 01:58:16,760 Speaker 4: in the next game, so maybe we'll win again. 2282 01:58:16,880 --> 01:58:20,680 Speaker 3: So but that's it. I know what's the same, all right, Hello, 2283 01:58:20,720 --> 01:58:21,120 Speaker 3: it's all. 2284 01:58:21,000 --> 01:58:24,560 Speaker 18: Fours and Draymond, Draymond to say hello to Draymond too. 2285 01:58:26,680 --> 01:58:32,080 Speaker 3: I mean, I've watched a little bit of The Mavericks, 2286 01:58:32,400 --> 01:58:36,240 Speaker 3: a lot of bit of The Thunder this season, and 2287 01:58:36,480 --> 01:58:41,240 Speaker 3: every single second of this series. Luka Doncic is one 2288 01:58:41,280 --> 01:58:46,240 Speaker 3: of the most amazing players because on one play there's 2289 01:58:46,280 --> 01:58:49,240 Speaker 3: several different things that happen. It's like a Luka Doncic experience. 2290 01:58:49,240 --> 01:58:51,480 Speaker 3: And I'm hesitant here because I know we're on an 2291 01:58:51,520 --> 01:58:54,240 Speaker 3: amazing affiliate. We're on the ticket in Dallas, one of 2292 01:58:54,280 --> 01:58:57,960 Speaker 3: the greatest radio stations, if not the greatest, in the country, 2293 01:58:58,920 --> 01:59:02,960 Speaker 3: And there's one Dallas area listener that every single time 2294 01:59:03,000 --> 01:59:05,800 Speaker 3: I try to talk anything Dallas bro, I get lit 2295 01:59:05,880 --> 01:59:08,960 Speaker 3: us like you don't know a damn thing obviously about 2296 01:59:09,000 --> 01:59:12,360 Speaker 3: anything Dallas sports, but I'll give it a try. Here. 2297 01:59:13,920 --> 01:59:15,800 Speaker 2: Luca goes through several phases. 2298 01:59:16,080 --> 01:59:18,160 Speaker 3: There's the oh my god, he broke his leg, he's 2299 01:59:18,160 --> 01:59:20,440 Speaker 3: never gonna play again, phase, to which he usually hops 2300 01:59:20,480 --> 01:59:24,120 Speaker 3: out of really quick. There's the every time he drives 2301 01:59:24,160 --> 01:59:27,400 Speaker 3: to the rim he got fouled phase right, which which 2302 01:59:27,440 --> 01:59:30,280 Speaker 3: we saw a lot in game five. And then there's 2303 01:59:30,320 --> 01:59:33,880 Speaker 3: this or saw in game four, excuse me. Then there's 2304 01:59:34,000 --> 01:59:37,160 Speaker 3: this this Game five Luca that showed up where he 2305 01:59:37,240 --> 01:59:40,600 Speaker 3: just went out and balled and it was really well, 2306 01:59:40,920 --> 01:59:44,880 Speaker 3: I'm a Thunder guy, so it wasn't really fun to see, 2307 01:59:44,880 --> 01:59:47,320 Speaker 3: But if you're just watching that without a rooting interest, 2308 01:59:47,520 --> 01:59:51,360 Speaker 3: it's pretty impressive to see. I still feel like Oklahoma 2309 01:59:51,440 --> 01:59:54,040 Speaker 3: City can force a Game seven. They won to Dallas 2310 01:59:54,040 --> 01:59:56,880 Speaker 3: before in a game where they'd played like doo doo 2311 01:59:57,280 --> 02:00:00,920 Speaker 3: until the fourth quarter, So if they can get anything. 2312 02:00:01,520 --> 02:00:06,160 Speaker 3: Sports are so weird, the Oklahoma City Thunder. We're one 2313 02:00:06,160 --> 02:00:11,480 Speaker 3: of the greatest three point shooting teams during the regular season, 2314 02:00:11,640 --> 02:00:14,680 Speaker 3: one of the best in the NBA. Suddenly you get 2315 02:00:14,680 --> 02:00:17,839 Speaker 3: to the playoffs, you're getting open looks and you can't 2316 02:00:18,120 --> 02:00:21,800 Speaker 3: consistently hit a three for your Life and it's crushing them. 2317 02:00:22,120 --> 02:00:24,800 Speaker 3: And give Dallas' role players credit. They've stepped up in 2318 02:00:24,800 --> 02:00:28,600 Speaker 3: a big way. Pj's been amazing. But I think we're 2319 02:00:28,600 --> 02:00:31,800 Speaker 3: getting a game seven of that series. I know this much. 2320 02:00:32,480 --> 02:00:34,280 Speaker 3: We'll be here to talk about it regardless of what 2321 02:00:34,320 --> 02:00:39,200 Speaker 3: happens tomorrow night. So Bernie out tonight out tomorrow so 2322 02:00:39,240 --> 02:00:41,240 Speaker 3: I'll be back in with the crew.
