I believe Guinness, soda bread, Irish cheeses. Who 7 00:00:22,120 --> 00:00:23,279 Speaker 2: has it better than we do? 8 00:00:24,040 --> 00:00:24,119 Speaker 3: No? 9 00:00:25,360 --> 00:00:28,520 Speaker 2: All right, all right, little enthusiasm there.

Smoltzy on the 12 00:00:34,560 --> 00:00:38,680 Speaker 2: call for the World Baseball Classic and the championship game 13 00:00:38,680 --> 00:00:41,600 Speaker 2: coming up tonight. Also, Reggie Miller will stop by a 14 00:00:41,600 --> 00:00:45,760 Speaker 2: little bit later on with his thoughts on the NBA 15 00:00:45,840 --> 00:00:48,559 Speaker 2: the Association Lakers over the Rockets last night. I was 16 00:00:48,600 --> 00:00:52,280 Speaker 2: watching that and they're now a game and a half 17 00:00:52,280 --> 00:00:55,040 Speaker 2: ahead of the Rockets for third place in the Western Conference, 18 00:00:55,400 --> 00:00:58,080 Speaker 2: and they won six in a row. By the way, 19 00:00:58,120 --> 00:01:01,240 Speaker 2: the Spurs won their fiftieth game of the season last night. 20 00:01:01,320 --> 00:01:05,480 Speaker 2: They haven't won fifty games in a season since twenty sixteen. 21 00:01:06,520 --> 00:01:08,840 Speaker 2: And watched a little bit of Jalen Brown putting up 22 00:01:08,880 --> 00:01:12,520 Speaker 2: forty one last night eighteen in the fourth quarter as 23 00:01:13,200 --> 00:01:17,800 Speaker 2: Boston picked up the win against the Suns. And this 24 00:01:17,840 --> 00:01:20,880 Speaker 2: is something I did not know. Steve Kerr got his 25 00:01:20,920 --> 00:01:27,160 Speaker 2: six hundred that's six hundredth career victory. And there's only 26 00:01:27,240 --> 00:01:30,679 Speaker 2: one other coach in NBA history who has six hundred 27 00:01:30,720 --> 00:01:34,360 Speaker 2: wins as a player, six hundred wins as a coach. 28 00:01:34,720 --> 00:01:38,120 Speaker 2: The only two people in NBA history who won at 29 00:01:38,200 --> 00:01:41,480 Speaker 2: least six hundred games as a player six hundred as 30 00:01:41,520 --> 00:01:45,600 Speaker 2: a coach Marvin pat Riley. 31 00:01:45,800 --> 00:01:51,960 Speaker 4: No, Todd pil Jackson. No, that's a good guess. 32 00:01:53,320 --> 00:01:56,560 Speaker 2: This guy had a one of the stranger jump shots. 33 00:01:57,400 --> 00:02:03,320 Speaker 2: Not a big time player, played for a great team, 34 00:02:04,760 --> 00:02:12,320 Speaker 2: played for a great team. Don Nelson, Nelly as they 35 00:02:12,400 --> 00:02:15,000 Speaker 2: like to call him, playing for the Celtics, of course, 36 00:02:15,760 --> 00:02:18,720 Speaker 2: legendary NBA head coach. All right eight seven to seven 37 00:02:18,760 --> 00:02:21,240 Speaker 2: to three, DP Show operator Tyler sitting by O take 38 00:02:21,280 --> 00:02:23,799 Speaker 2: your calls. Good morning if you're watching on Peacock or 39 00:02:23,840 --> 00:02:26,920 Speaker 2: the NBC Sports networker listening on our radio affiliates around 40 00:02:26,960 --> 00:02:32,120 Speaker 2: the country, including iHeartRadio and Fox Sports Radio. John Smoltz 41 00:02:32,120 --> 00:02:34,520 Speaker 2: on the call with Joe Davis. Last night, World Baseball 42 00:02:34,600 --> 00:02:39,720 Speaker 2: Classic the Semifinals Venezuela against Italy Team USA playing for 43 00:02:39,800 --> 00:02:43,679 Speaker 2: the title tonight on Fox at eight eastern against Venezuela. 44 00:02:44,919 --> 00:02:48,120 Speaker 2: You know, the atmosphere is what surprised me probably the most. John, 45 00:02:48,400 --> 00:02:51,239 Speaker 2: I don't know if I said, what's the one thing 46 00:02:51,280 --> 00:02:53,760 Speaker 2: that you were surprised at so far with the Classic? 47 00:02:53,880 --> 00:02:54,080 Speaker 5: Is what? 48 00:02:55,240 --> 00:02:55,480 Speaker 6: Yeah? 49 00:02:55,520 --> 00:02:58,400 Speaker 5: I would say, first of all, the star factor of 50 00:02:58,639 --> 00:03:01,800 Speaker 5: the amount of players have bought in and play, especially 51 00:03:01,800 --> 00:03:05,800 Speaker 5: with TEAMSA, that's probably the most we've ever had. You know, 52 00:03:05,840 --> 00:03:07,440 Speaker 5: a lot of guys want to dip their toe in. 53 00:03:07,480 --> 00:03:09,880 Speaker 5: You got to be all in or not. And that 54 00:03:10,040 --> 00:03:12,840 Speaker 5: is what I've always seen from the countries that have 55 00:03:13,000 --> 00:03:15,919 Speaker 5: gathered their stars, because that is the most important thing 56 00:03:15,960 --> 00:03:20,000 Speaker 5: that to them. The intensity and the passion has gotten 57 00:03:20,040 --> 00:03:24,240 Speaker 5: more and more and the loudness. Of course, the where 58 00:03:24,240 --> 00:03:26,680 Speaker 5: we are in Miami helps because a lot of the 59 00:03:26,760 --> 00:03:30,400 Speaker 5: people live here that represent those countries. So that to 60 00:03:30,480 --> 00:03:35,000 Speaker 5: me has been single handedly very very obvious and very 61 00:03:35,040 --> 00:03:40,320 Speaker 5: apparent who they're rooting for and how many people's out. 62 00:03:40,520 --> 00:03:42,880 Speaker 5: It outweighs the American fans, that's for sure. 63 00:03:43,440 --> 00:03:46,240 Speaker 2: How do you build a team like this not sure 64 00:03:46,320 --> 00:03:48,560 Speaker 2: who's going to play. Maybe the countries it's a little 65 00:03:48,560 --> 00:03:50,119 Speaker 2: bit easier for them to build their team. 66 00:03:50,160 --> 00:03:50,880 Speaker 4: But for Team. 67 00:03:50,800 --> 00:03:54,520 Speaker 2: USA, how do they go about, you know, putting the 68 00:03:54,600 --> 00:03:57,520 Speaker 2: roster together in future World Baseball Classics. 69 00:03:58,200 --> 00:04:01,040 Speaker 5: It starts a year in advance. That's the hard part. 70 00:04:01,200 --> 00:04:03,600 Speaker 5: There's all kinds of restraints and handcuffs. I don't know 71 00:04:03,600 --> 00:04:05,760 Speaker 5: why you'd want to be a manager. First and foremost, 72 00:04:05,880 --> 00:04:08,800 Speaker 5: there's absolutely no upside unless you want to manage in 73 00:04:08,840 --> 00:04:11,720 Speaker 5: the big leagues. And it starts with a star player 74 00:04:11,760 --> 00:04:14,200 Speaker 5: buying in. I think the more these tournaments have been played, 75 00:04:14,880 --> 00:04:16,720 Speaker 5: you can dislike a lot of things that come along 76 00:04:16,760 --> 00:04:19,360 Speaker 5: with it, and I do, But from a tournament standpoint, 77 00:04:19,720 --> 00:04:22,000 Speaker 5: you don't have the freedom to do whatever you want, 78 00:04:22,080 --> 00:04:24,000 Speaker 5: so you've got to take what you get. So if 79 00:04:24,040 --> 00:04:26,120 Speaker 5: you get a star like Aaron Judge who's bought in 80 00:04:26,200 --> 00:04:29,320 Speaker 5: and he starts talking to players and Bryce Harper, that's 81 00:04:29,320 --> 00:04:35,320 Speaker 5: how it works. And look what Schemes has done at 82 00:04:35,360 --> 00:04:38,200 Speaker 5: his age. The stock has gone through the roof. I 83 00:04:38,960 --> 00:04:42,000 Speaker 5: just can't even imagine. You know, when it starts happening 84 00:04:42,040 --> 00:04:44,160 Speaker 5: like that and you get pictures to buy in, then 85 00:04:44,240 --> 00:04:46,279 Speaker 5: all of a sudden you get to showcase what you have, 86 00:04:46,720 --> 00:04:49,080 Speaker 5: and then the US pressure to win it gets better 87 00:04:49,279 --> 00:04:51,480 Speaker 5: because they're more equipped to win it with the players 88 00:04:51,480 --> 00:04:51,719 Speaker 5: they have. 89 00:04:52,839 --> 00:04:56,719 Speaker 2: You kind of sounded ominous with Paul's schemes, where the 90 00:04:56,760 --> 00:04:59,960 Speaker 2: way he throws, how he throws, you know that it's 91 00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:03,320 Speaker 2: it's kind of inevitable. It feels like that he's gonna 92 00:05:03,560 --> 00:05:07,680 Speaker 2: break down at some point. Is that summarizing what your 93 00:05:08,200 --> 00:05:09,400 Speaker 2: thoughts are with him? 94 00:05:09,920 --> 00:05:12,920 Speaker 5: No, I mean that's the summarization of what we now 95 00:05:13,040 --> 00:05:16,200 Speaker 5: come to get used to. Nobody's escaped it. He might 96 00:05:16,200 --> 00:05:18,359 Speaker 5: be an outlier. Shoot, he carries a tank on his 97 00:05:18,400 --> 00:05:20,840 Speaker 5: back when he's warming up, a lot of things. I 98 00:05:20,960 --> 00:05:23,680 Speaker 5: like that he does because he's so big and he 99 00:05:23,760 --> 00:05:27,800 Speaker 5: has such great opportunity to dominate a baseball game. But 100 00:05:27,880 --> 00:05:30,400 Speaker 5: what I'm more impressed is the mentality of what he's 101 00:05:30,440 --> 00:05:32,840 Speaker 5: doing and how he's doing it that in and out 102 00:05:32,839 --> 00:05:36,080 Speaker 5: of himself can get you away from the epidemic of 103 00:05:36,160 --> 00:05:40,040 Speaker 5: injuries that we're seeing in pitchers. Because he's different, he's unique, 104 00:05:40,040 --> 00:05:43,240 Speaker 5: he's six five, sixty six whatever. I don't think buying 105 00:05:43,240 --> 00:05:45,560 Speaker 5: into the narrative that it's going to happen. Now. We 106 00:05:45,720 --> 00:05:49,039 Speaker 5: as broadcasters and former players, we report that this is 107 00:05:49,040 --> 00:05:52,560 Speaker 5: happening at an alarming rate and it's not connected to 108 00:05:52,720 --> 00:05:54,480 Speaker 5: the World Baseball Classic. I know that's what a lot 109 00:05:54,480 --> 00:05:56,440 Speaker 5: of people want to say. It's like, well, why would 110 00:05:56,480 --> 00:05:58,479 Speaker 5: I want to put my player through a World Baseball 111 00:05:58,480 --> 00:06:01,320 Speaker 5: Classic when the injury rates are they are. The reason 112 00:06:01,440 --> 00:06:03,880 Speaker 5: is because we've never even addressed it. So if you 113 00:06:03,920 --> 00:06:06,920 Speaker 5: don't address it, and I've been banging that drum for years, 114 00:06:07,160 --> 00:06:10,040 Speaker 5: I'm glad to see players come into this event and 115 00:06:10,080 --> 00:06:12,640 Speaker 5: say I'm in. I want to play for my country. 116 00:06:12,800 --> 00:06:15,359 Speaker 5: I'm gonna pitch the way I possibly can, to be 117 00:06:15,400 --> 00:06:18,080 Speaker 5: the best that I can and deal with the mental 118 00:06:18,160 --> 00:06:20,520 Speaker 5: toughness that you got to have because there's all kinds 119 00:06:20,520 --> 00:06:24,040 Speaker 5: of noise, Dan, you can buy into a million of 120 00:06:24,440 --> 00:06:27,200 Speaker 5: theories if you let yourself. And I think when I've 121 00:06:27,200 --> 00:06:30,200 Speaker 5: seen this Team USA, they're not doing it and they 122 00:06:30,240 --> 00:06:32,159 Speaker 5: know they have a mission. They know they need to 123 00:06:32,200 --> 00:06:33,800 Speaker 5: win because they're expected to. 124 00:06:34,440 --> 00:06:36,280 Speaker 2: He's John Spoltz to be on the call with Joe 125 00:06:36,360 --> 00:06:39,560 Speaker 2: Davis tonight. It'll be on Fox Team USA playing for 126 00:06:39,600 --> 00:06:41,159 Speaker 2: the title against Venezuela. 127 00:06:41,279 --> 00:06:46,760 Speaker 5: Hew threatening is Venezuela. Well, they've got a lot of 128 00:06:46,760 --> 00:06:48,720 Speaker 5: star part of themselves, but they also have a ton 129 00:06:48,760 --> 00:06:51,039 Speaker 5: of emotion. You can play in a tournament like this 130 00:06:51,200 --> 00:06:54,159 Speaker 5: with that kind of emotion because it's condensed. You can't 131 00:06:54,160 --> 00:06:56,280 Speaker 5: do it in the rever season. You'd be wiped out. 132 00:06:56,600 --> 00:06:59,040 Speaker 5: And so their ability and their belief. Look, they're trying 133 00:06:59,040 --> 00:07:01,960 Speaker 5: to do something they never done, and for this tournament history, 134 00:07:02,000 --> 00:07:04,880 Speaker 5: it's been kind of dominated by Japan. The US has 135 00:07:04,920 --> 00:07:06,800 Speaker 5: a chance to get their second. But what it would 136 00:07:06,839 --> 00:07:09,040 Speaker 5: mean for the country of Venezuela and everything that had 137 00:07:09,080 --> 00:07:11,280 Speaker 5: gone through and all the people that live here. You 138 00:07:11,400 --> 00:07:15,200 Speaker 5: can't help but be infectious about how they are just 139 00:07:15,320 --> 00:07:20,120 Speaker 5: gravitated towards that emotion. This look I had about ten 140 00:07:20,200 --> 00:07:21,080 Speaker 5: twelve years ago, I. 141 00:07:21,000 --> 00:07:22,840 Speaker 6: Probably would be bothered by this. 142 00:07:23,000 --> 00:07:25,920 Speaker 5: Winning of World Baseball Classic is more important than winning 143 00:07:25,920 --> 00:07:28,280 Speaker 5: a World Series. I get it now, though. I get 144 00:07:28,320 --> 00:07:30,080 Speaker 5: it for the country. I get it for the players 145 00:07:30,120 --> 00:07:34,080 Speaker 5: to come from that country. Totally understand why their passion 146 00:07:34,480 --> 00:07:38,000 Speaker 5: and the importance of this weighs a little bit higher 147 00:07:38,040 --> 00:07:41,640 Speaker 5: than an ultimate goal in Major League Baseball when in. 148 00:07:41,720 --> 00:07:43,760 Speaker 4: A World Series, how do you make this bigger? 149 00:07:45,840 --> 00:07:47,440 Speaker 5: I think you make it bigger when you do it 150 00:07:47,440 --> 00:07:49,680 Speaker 5: in the middle of the season, shut down for a week. 151 00:07:49,720 --> 00:07:53,000 Speaker 5: I really I've been saying that for years. I think 152 00:07:53,080 --> 00:07:56,880 Speaker 5: it's the perfect spot to showcase the international talent. You'd 153 00:07:56,920 --> 00:07:59,920 Speaker 5: have everybody wearing that uniform. They'd be in mid season form. 154 00:08:00,000 --> 00:08:02,320 Speaker 5: There'll be no restrictions. You truly get to see the 155 00:08:02,360 --> 00:08:05,520 Speaker 5: goliath going against the goliath without them coming out and 156 00:08:05,560 --> 00:08:08,200 Speaker 5: throwing a million arms. I don't know that we'll ever 157 00:08:08,200 --> 00:08:10,920 Speaker 5: get there. I hope we do. Hockey did it last year. 158 00:08:10,960 --> 00:08:13,080 Speaker 5: I didn't miss one second of it. I was glued 159 00:08:13,080 --> 00:08:17,160 Speaker 5: to it. Is the most incredible event that I've ever watched. 160 00:08:17,480 --> 00:08:20,480 Speaker 5: When you see what those players were doing for that country, 161 00:08:20,680 --> 00:08:22,720 Speaker 5: and it was much more condensed. We could do the 162 00:08:22,760 --> 00:08:28,160 Speaker 5: same thing. That's how you make it better. You can 163 00:08:28,240 --> 00:08:32,200 Speaker 5: allow what this tournament has done has accomplished its goals. 164 00:08:32,559 --> 00:08:35,200 Speaker 5: In Italy, baseball is going to be thought of differently. 165 00:08:35,240 --> 00:08:35,480 Speaker 7: There. 166 00:08:35,800 --> 00:08:38,160 Speaker 5: You've got all other countries that are bringing baseball in 167 00:08:38,240 --> 00:08:41,000 Speaker 5: the forefront when other sports were really kind of marquee 168 00:08:41,280 --> 00:08:45,440 Speaker 5: and king that has worked. Is it the perfect timing? No, 169 00:08:45,720 --> 00:08:48,720 Speaker 5: his spring training and all these clubs think about managing 170 00:08:48,720 --> 00:08:51,880 Speaker 5: Team USA. You got thirty bosses. You got thirty bosses 171 00:08:52,120 --> 00:08:54,959 Speaker 5: telling you what their players can and can't do. It's 172 00:08:54,960 --> 00:08:59,360 Speaker 5: a very difficult situation. But given the circumstances. This has 173 00:08:59,400 --> 00:09:02,840 Speaker 5: been an EPI year. It's probably the best tournament we've 174 00:09:02,840 --> 00:09:03,720 Speaker 5: seen in a long time. 175 00:09:03,880 --> 00:09:05,920 Speaker 4: Have you talked to the commissioner about this idea? 176 00:09:07,080 --> 00:09:12,280 Speaker 5: Oh yeah, many years, many times. Absolutely. I just think 177 00:09:12,520 --> 00:09:15,079 Speaker 5: it's a no brainer. But we got the Olympics, We've 178 00:09:15,080 --> 00:09:17,760 Speaker 5: got other things that are that are probably getting away 179 00:09:17,840 --> 00:09:20,640 Speaker 5: right now. But the international flavor in our game is 180 00:09:20,679 --> 00:09:23,559 Speaker 5: so good. Even if you just did an international World 181 00:09:23,640 --> 00:09:27,000 Speaker 5: versus USA, you can't come up with a roster that 182 00:09:27,040 --> 00:09:31,400 Speaker 5: wouldn't be epic either way. And people, look, I think 183 00:09:31,480 --> 00:09:33,240 Speaker 5: our All Star game is still the best all Star 184 00:09:33,320 --> 00:09:35,920 Speaker 5: game of any sport. It's the only one worth watching. 185 00:09:36,679 --> 00:09:39,000 Speaker 5: We play it closer to the regular season and everyone's 186 00:09:39,000 --> 00:09:40,839 Speaker 5: still trying to figure out how to spruce it up. Well, 187 00:09:40,840 --> 00:09:41,520 Speaker 5: this is how you win. 188 00:09:42,360 --> 00:09:45,120 Speaker 2: That would be great, though, Just do like the NBA 189 00:09:45,240 --> 00:09:48,040 Speaker 2: did with the USA versus the World. 190 00:09:48,960 --> 00:09:51,480 Speaker 5: Yep, and you could do two games the wrong If 191 00:09:51,480 --> 00:09:53,439 Speaker 5: you shut the game down for a week and give 192 00:09:53,480 --> 00:09:56,280 Speaker 5: everybody the break they need. Is the season is long, 193 00:09:56,679 --> 00:09:59,040 Speaker 5: you could you could do so many things to promote 194 00:09:59,080 --> 00:10:02,320 Speaker 5: within that week and own that week, not to mention, 195 00:10:02,800 --> 00:10:04,880 Speaker 5: and I told you this before, and the weekend of 196 00:10:04,920 --> 00:10:07,440 Speaker 5: that week off have the Hall of Fame so that 197 00:10:07,559 --> 00:10:10,880 Speaker 5: everybody can be aware of past, the present and be connected. 198 00:10:11,200 --> 00:10:12,959 Speaker 4: Did you fill out your bracket yet? 199 00:10:14,000 --> 00:10:14,440 Speaker 6: Not yet. 200 00:10:14,600 --> 00:10:15,160 Speaker 5: I don't even know. 201 00:10:15,200 --> 00:10:18,520 Speaker 4: I didn't even know today was Saint Patty's Day. 202 00:10:18,760 --> 00:10:19,560 Speaker 6: Yeah, I didn't even know. 203 00:10:19,640 --> 00:10:23,240 Speaker 5: I've been on a two week road trip and I 204 00:10:23,280 --> 00:10:25,640 Speaker 5: haven't even looked at one thing. I do know that 205 00:10:25,679 --> 00:10:27,960 Speaker 5: the bracket that my team I root for is in 206 00:10:28,000 --> 00:10:29,240 Speaker 5: the hardest bracket. 207 00:10:29,240 --> 00:10:29,840 Speaker 6: Go figure. 208 00:10:30,880 --> 00:10:32,160 Speaker 5: But that's just the way it is. 209 00:10:32,679 --> 00:10:36,520 Speaker 2: But you have supreme confidence in tom Iszeld in Michigan State. 210 00:10:37,120 --> 00:10:39,760 Speaker 5: Supreme confidence. I only wish I could go to Buffalo 211 00:10:40,080 --> 00:10:42,040 Speaker 5: and watch it in person, but I can't get there. 212 00:10:42,600 --> 00:10:45,640 Speaker 4: Have fun tonight, John, we'll do.

He was like fifteen sixteen years old hitting 225 00:11:15,360 --> 00:11:17,439 Speaker 8: one hundred and one yea, god, that is. 226 00:11:17,520 --> 00:11:20,160 Speaker 4: Crazy if you threw. 227 00:11:20,280 --> 00:11:22,680 Speaker 8: I remember we faced one kid in high school that 228 00:11:22,720 --> 00:11:25,800 Speaker 8: threw ninety miles an hour and he uh, he went 229 00:11:25,840 --> 00:11:28,920 Speaker 8: to college, but eventually like blew his arm out and 230 00:11:28,960 --> 00:11:32,440 Speaker 8: it was like seeing a unicorn or like a meteorite 231 00:11:32,520 --> 00:11:33,520 Speaker 8: just fell from the earth, Like. 232 00:11:33,440 --> 00:11:35,199 Speaker 4: Holy crap, you see how fastest gets throwing. 233 00:11:35,720 --> 00:11:39,720 Speaker 2: I told the story, and I just knew his last 234 00:11:39,800 --> 00:11:44,160 Speaker 2: name was Nagel, and not Danny Nagel, but Nagel. And 235 00:11:44,200 --> 00:11:46,640 Speaker 2: when we were growing up, it was like we knew 236 00:11:46,920 --> 00:11:50,320 Speaker 2: if we were gonna get through and go far with 237 00:11:50,440 --> 00:11:52,960 Speaker 2: our team, you had to get through this left hander. 238 00:11:54,000 --> 00:11:57,160 Speaker 2: And I remember that we ended up with two hits 239 00:11:57,640 --> 00:12:00,640 Speaker 2: and we ended up beating him one to nothing. So 240 00:12:01,120 --> 00:12:05,840 Speaker 2: I tell this story and next thing I know, John 241 00:12:05,920 --> 00:12:09,640 Speaker 2: Harbaugh he sends me a text and he says, Hey, 242 00:12:09,760 --> 00:12:12,200 Speaker 2: I got a couple of friends I went to college 243 00:12:12,240 --> 00:12:16,640 Speaker 2: with they would like to come to your studio. I go, okay, 244 00:12:16,720 --> 00:12:19,080 Speaker 2: they're going to be in the area. They're from Cincinnati, 245 00:12:19,120 --> 00:12:23,800 Speaker 2: and I go, oh, Okay, next thing, I know, three 246 00:12:23,840 --> 00:12:28,559 Speaker 2: guys walk in. One of the guys says, I'm Nagel. 247 00:12:30,040 --> 00:12:34,240 Speaker 2: I go, you're Nagel. He goes, yeah, I said, we 248 00:12:34,320 --> 00:12:36,720 Speaker 2: beat you one to nothing. And I'm like, what are 249 00:12:36,760 --> 00:12:40,319 Speaker 2: the odds that John Harbaugh knows the guy that we 250 00:12:40,320 --> 00:12:43,040 Speaker 2: were playing against facing a couple of times when I 251 00:12:43,120 --> 00:12:45,600 Speaker 2: was growing up, and he went and he pitched at 252 00:12:45,600 --> 00:12:48,240 Speaker 2: Michigan and I think he ended up hurting his arm. 253 00:12:48,320 --> 00:12:51,920 Speaker 2: But it's one of those where you go, Galilee, that 254 00:12:51,960 --> 00:12:54,679 Speaker 2: guy is throwing some serious cheese here. 255 00:12:55,880 --> 00:12:58,559 Speaker 9: Yeah, Paulie, I was looking up the stats. Mason Miller, 256 00:12:58,640 --> 00:13:01,679 Speaker 9: the great relief pitcher for USA. He's already thrown thirty 257 00:13:01,679 --> 00:13:03,480 Speaker 9: five pitches of a one hundred or over. 258 00:13:04,120 --> 00:13:05,000 Speaker 4: Yeah, thirty five. 259 00:13:06,000 --> 00:13:08,600 Speaker 9: Yeah, he doesn't really throw that many under one hundred. 260 00:13:09,000 --> 00:13:12,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, but Skeens, I mean, Skeens is a big guy. 261 00:13:13,760 --> 00:13:17,760 Speaker 2: But there it feels like they're all destined to have 262 00:13:17,840 --> 00:13:18,520 Speaker 2: Tommy John. 263 00:13:19,280 --> 00:13:19,800 Speaker 4: You just are. 264 00:13:21,920 --> 00:13:23,839 Speaker 2: But it used to be a rotator because I had 265 00:13:23,920 --> 00:13:28,160 Speaker 2: rotator and labor damage. Now it's Tommy John's surgery. 266 00:13:28,559 --> 00:13:32,000 Speaker 9: Yeah, Paulie, Mason Miller are throwing thirty five pitches over 267 00:13:32,040 --> 00:13:34,640 Speaker 9: one hundred. The rest of the teams in the WBC 268 00:13:34,720 --> 00:13:37,520 Speaker 9: have thrown thirty four over one hundred. That's every other 269 00:13:37,559 --> 00:13:39,679 Speaker 9: pitcher why heikes. 270 00:13:40,520 --> 00:13:42,920 Speaker 2: But at what point does it become normal for the 271 00:13:43,000 --> 00:13:46,000 Speaker 2: hitter to see one hundred? Because I remember when I 272 00:13:46,040 --> 00:13:49,120 Speaker 2: saw ninety and it was like, that's different. And then 273 00:13:49,120 --> 00:13:50,920 Speaker 2: if you would go to the batting cage and dial 274 00:13:50,920 --> 00:13:53,840 Speaker 2: it up to ninety five, and you're like, it would 275 00:13:53,920 --> 00:13:57,920 Speaker 2: take you probably twenty pitches to be able to time it, 276 00:13:57,960 --> 00:14:01,200 Speaker 2: to catch up to it, just to put it in play. 277 00:14:01,240 --> 00:14:03,280 Speaker 2: And then you know they're throwing ninety five, but they're 278 00:14:03,280 --> 00:14:05,560 Speaker 2: not throwing ninety five right down the middle, or they're 279 00:14:05,559 --> 00:14:10,000 Speaker 2: throwing breaking balls or sliders or whatever. And now, but 280 00:14:10,160 --> 00:14:12,200 Speaker 2: you know, these guys will hit one hundred miles an hour. 281 00:14:13,679 --> 00:14:15,600 Speaker 2: If they know where it's going to be, they'll hit it. 282 00:14:18,880 --> 00:14:22,360 Speaker 2: But it's the other pitches that are the difference between 283 00:14:22,560 --> 00:14:25,880 Speaker 2: being an All Star, being a Hall of Famer, being 284 00:14:25,880 --> 00:14:29,040 Speaker 2: a cy Young winner. And you know that's where hey 285 00:14:29,040 --> 00:14:32,440 Speaker 2: throw one hundred down the middle and major league kidders 286 00:14:33,000 --> 00:14:36,640 Speaker 2: are going to crush it because they've seen a hundred. 287 00:14:36,760 --> 00:14:38,960 Speaker 2: We have it like you if you get in the 288 00:14:38,960 --> 00:14:42,600 Speaker 2: batter's box and just watch somebody throw just ninety and 289 00:14:42,680 --> 00:14:47,800 Speaker 2: you hear that ninety and then you tack on ten 290 00:14:47,880 --> 00:14:51,520 Speaker 2: miles more and then you hope to see it like 291 00:14:51,600 --> 00:14:56,240 Speaker 2: it's it's a different experience when you're like, damn, and if. 292 00:14:56,160 --> 00:14:58,560 Speaker 4: You get hit, that thing really hurts. 293 00:15:00,560 --> 00:15:04,320 Speaker 2: Rob Dibble hit Tim Tuffle in the back when Dibble 294 00:15:04,880 --> 00:15:09,120 Speaker 2: was with the Reds and he hit tofle and Timmy 295 00:15:09,280 --> 00:15:12,040 Speaker 2: was this second baseman for the Mets, and I remember 296 00:15:12,120 --> 00:15:14,640 Speaker 2: Rob Dibble telling me the story that I don't know 297 00:15:14,680 --> 00:15:17,040 Speaker 2: what Tuffle did or somebody with the Mets did, but 298 00:15:17,160 --> 00:15:19,920 Speaker 2: you know, Dibble came in one of the Nasty boys 299 00:15:19,960 --> 00:15:21,960 Speaker 2: and he threw a pitch and he said it hit 300 00:15:22,040 --> 00:15:26,440 Speaker 2: Tim Tuffell in the back and actually stayed there. Momentarily, 301 00:15:29,120 --> 00:15:32,680 Speaker 2: it hit him in the back and stayed and then 302 00:15:32,720 --> 00:15:34,560 Speaker 2: it dropped down to the ground, and then there was 303 00:15:34,640 --> 00:15:36,000 Speaker 2: this big altercation there. 304 00:15:36,240 --> 00:15:38,920 Speaker 4: Yes, Pauling, I went back and watched the video. 305 00:15:39,200 --> 00:15:42,640 Speaker 9: Tuffell wants to run out hit Dibble, but he's like, yeah, 306 00:15:42,720 --> 00:15:43,920 Speaker 9: like three seconds. 307 00:15:43,640 --> 00:15:45,760 Speaker 2: All right, Well take a break.

I believe it was Central Michigan beating 333 00:17:16,440 --> 00:17:19,000 Speaker 6: them and then thinking that we were gonna have a 334 00:17:19,160 --> 00:17:25,400 Speaker 6: clear cut sweet sixteen berth because we played good old 335 00:17:25,680 --> 00:17:31,639 Speaker 6: best name Finnis Dimbo in Wyoming, thinking Okay, we're gonna 336 00:17:31,680 --> 00:17:34,000 Speaker 6: run through them, and then we were gonna get the 337 00:17:34,040 --> 00:17:36,680 Speaker 6: matchup that everyone wanted to see because we never played 338 00:17:36,720 --> 00:17:40,119 Speaker 6: one another.

That was the 340 00:17:45,000 --> 00:17:50,119 Speaker 6: matchup we overlooked. Finnis, he cooked us, he cooked me, 341 00:17:50,920 --> 00:17:54,280 Speaker 6: and we lost the Finnis Dimbo in one and the Cowboys. 342 00:17:54,640 --> 00:17:57,600 Speaker 6: That's probably what I remember most of my senior year. 343 00:17:58,000 --> 00:17:59,280 Speaker 4: But how does that work? 344 00:17:59,359 --> 00:18:02,280 Speaker 2: Explain that experience that here's Finnish Denbo, who wasn't a 345 00:18:02,320 --> 00:18:04,879 Speaker 2: good NBA player. You became a Hall of famer, but 346 00:18:05,000 --> 00:18:08,959 Speaker 2: on that day he was a hall of Fame player 347 00:18:09,160 --> 00:18:10,080 Speaker 2: against you guys. 348 00:18:10,520 --> 00:18:14,000 Speaker 6: And that's the beauty of March Maddys. When it doesn't 349 00:18:14,000 --> 00:18:18,399 Speaker 6: matter what seede you are. Remember you're playing on neutral sites, 350 00:18:18,480 --> 00:18:21,320 Speaker 6: you're not playing at home, and everyone is somewhat equal 351 00:18:21,400 --> 00:18:27,680 Speaker 6: because of these neutral sites, and we overlooked Wyoming and 352 00:18:28,040 --> 00:18:33,479 Speaker 6: this was a blockbuster game for them. And the Finnish 353 00:18:33,520 --> 00:18:36,520 Speaker 6: Devo punched his ticket to the NBA from that game. 354 00:18:37,560 --> 00:18:41,240 Speaker 6: And it was a disappointing loss for my ruins. 355 00:18:41,800 --> 00:18:44,800 Speaker 2: How long does it take to get over a loss? Well, 356 00:18:44,800 --> 00:18:46,200 Speaker 2: that was your last game. 357 00:18:46,720 --> 00:18:51,200 Speaker 6: It was I fouled out, I didn't play great. It's difficult, 358 00:18:51,359 --> 00:18:55,600 Speaker 6: but you dust yourself off and move on. But it's 359 00:18:55,600 --> 00:18:57,840 Speaker 6: one of those losses that you hope you grow from. 360 00:18:58,160 --> 00:19:04,200 Speaker 6: And sometimes when you have losses like that, that's your 361 00:19:04,200 --> 00:19:07,879 Speaker 6: best teacher. Yeah, and you learn from it and you 362 00:19:07,920 --> 00:19:08,199 Speaker 6: move on. 363 00:19:09,359 --> 00:19:13,159 Speaker 2: Better team in your opinion, more talented running rebels or 364 00:19:13,160 --> 00:19:13,880 Speaker 2: the Fab five? 365 00:19:15,960 --> 00:19:21,560 Speaker 6: Wow, very similar in terms of how they approached the game. 366 00:19:22,119 --> 00:19:24,000 Speaker 6: Now are we talking about the one U and L 367 00:19:24,080 --> 00:19:27,120 Speaker 6: the team that went undefeated and won the championship versus 368 00:19:27,240 --> 00:19:32,360 Speaker 6: Duke Because that team was unbelievable? Were Grandmama, Stacey Hogben, 369 00:19:32,920 --> 00:19:36,600 Speaker 6: Greg Anthony? I mean they were loaded. But in terms 370 00:19:36,680 --> 00:19:40,080 Speaker 6: of culture, right, I mean, you've got to think of 371 00:19:40,119 --> 00:19:42,880 Speaker 6: the Fab five. I know they didn't win a championship, 372 00:19:43,160 --> 00:19:47,280 Speaker 6: but they changed the landscape and how we thought with 373 00:19:47,840 --> 00:19:54,000 Speaker 6: Juwan Howard, Chris Webber, my boy, Jalen Rose. So culture wise, 374 00:19:54,160 --> 00:19:57,560 Speaker 6: I'll go with the Fab five. But I mean you 375 00:19:57,640 --> 00:20:00,159 Speaker 6: got to remember those running Rebels teams. They did win 376 00:20:00,200 --> 00:20:00,919 Speaker 6: a championship. 377 00:20:01,000 --> 00:20:05,480 Speaker 2: Okay, but more talented. If I go starting five Fab 378 00:20:05,560 --> 00:20:09,560 Speaker 2: five against the starting five at UNLV, I. 379 00:20:09,560 --> 00:20:12,480 Speaker 6: Would probably more talented would be the Fab five. 380 00:20:12,600 --> 00:20:16,040 Speaker 2: Okay, yeah, I would say the same thing. I mean, 381 00:20:16,320 --> 00:20:20,560 Speaker 2: Larry was great. I thought Stacey was gonna be even better. 382 00:20:21,440 --> 00:20:26,399 Speaker 6: He was good. He was good, but because of his length, 383 00:20:26,440 --> 00:20:29,400 Speaker 6: you thought at six eighty six nine, yeah, seven foot 384 00:20:29,400 --> 00:20:32,919 Speaker 6: two wingspan, but he was good in the NBA. He 385 00:20:33,000 --> 00:20:36,640 Speaker 6: wasn't great, he was. He was good. Greg Anthony had 386 00:20:36,640 --> 00:20:41,080 Speaker 6: a good NBA career. But let's face it, those that 387 00:20:41,280 --> 00:20:45,000 Speaker 6: Fab five team, Jayden Rose was great. We know about 388 00:20:45,040 --> 00:20:49,080 Speaker 6: seweb Juwan Howard had a long NBA career now coaching. 389 00:20:50,640 --> 00:20:52,920 Speaker 6: So yeah, I think career wise, you go with the 390 00:20:52,960 --> 00:20:53,480 Speaker 6: Fab five. 391 00:20:53,720 --> 00:20:57,119 Speaker 2: Talking to REGGI Miller, the Hall of Famer, you know, 392 00:20:57,200 --> 00:20:59,040 Speaker 2: I don't go out of my way to talk about 393 00:20:59,040 --> 00:21:03,159 Speaker 2: the Lakers, but when they do something and they're winning, 394 00:21:03,400 --> 00:21:05,639 Speaker 2: and they're you know, a game and a half up 395 00:21:05,680 --> 00:21:08,240 Speaker 2: on Houston, So now you know, if they get into 396 00:21:08,240 --> 00:21:14,080 Speaker 2: the top four, now you know, maybe maybe there can 397 00:21:14,160 --> 00:21:16,080 Speaker 2: be a magical run here. But I don't know what's 398 00:21:16,160 --> 00:21:19,159 Speaker 2: different in the last you know, two weeks or so, 399 00:21:19,240 --> 00:21:22,360 Speaker 2: they won six in a row, and we've seen Lebron 400 00:21:22,880 --> 00:21:27,480 Speaker 2: almost embrace that third wheel of you know, I'm going 401 00:21:27,560 --> 00:21:29,399 Speaker 2: to defer, I'm going to pass, I'm going to let 402 00:21:29,440 --> 00:21:32,480 Speaker 2: these two guys. Is it that simple, because they still 403 00:21:32,520 --> 00:21:33,560 Speaker 2: have to play defense. 404 00:21:34,480 --> 00:21:37,320 Speaker 6: It's that simple, And you're right, at the end of 405 00:21:37,359 --> 00:21:41,920 Speaker 6: the day, the defense will either do them in or 406 00:21:42,080 --> 00:21:44,520 Speaker 6: that'll be the defining moment for them. And I think 407 00:21:44,520 --> 00:21:50,600 Speaker 6: they're starting to understand how the roles will be situated 408 00:21:50,640 --> 00:21:54,440 Speaker 6: because Lebron was out for those few games, that's when 409 00:21:54,440 --> 00:21:59,200 Speaker 6: they started this win streak, and between Austin Reeves and Luca, 410 00:21:59,480 --> 00:22:03,760 Speaker 6: they were them Offensively. Let's give Marcus Smart a lot 411 00:22:03,760 --> 00:22:06,880 Speaker 6: of credit. He's not getting enough. People aren't talking about 412 00:22:06,920 --> 00:22:09,520 Speaker 6: what he's doing at both ends of the floor. Defensively, 413 00:22:10,080 --> 00:22:13,560 Speaker 6: he's been unbelievable for them. And on top of that, 414 00:22:14,520 --> 00:22:17,000 Speaker 6: because of all the double team you know, Luca and 415 00:22:17,080 --> 00:22:22,399 Speaker 6: when h Reeves drives and penetrates him knocking down big 416 00:22:22,520 --> 00:22:26,199 Speaker 6: time three point shots, you know, when he was with 417 00:22:26,280 --> 00:22:29,560 Speaker 6: Boston and when he was winning defensive player. He's he 418 00:22:29,720 --> 00:22:33,080 Speaker 6: almost is reverting back to that Marcus Smart. So I 419 00:22:33,119 --> 00:22:35,920 Speaker 6: think guys are starting to understand they're getting something out 420 00:22:35,920 --> 00:22:39,639 Speaker 6: of deandurry Ayton in the middle, something that we hadn't 421 00:22:39,680 --> 00:22:44,160 Speaker 6: seen all season. So guys are starting to figure it out. 422 00:22:44,400 --> 00:22:47,360 Speaker 6: But at the end of the day, Theodore, the Lakers 423 00:22:47,400 --> 00:22:50,480 Speaker 6: are going to be judged by their defense and last 424 00:22:50,520 --> 00:22:53,399 Speaker 6: night how they played defensively in that when on the 425 00:22:53,480 --> 00:22:56,600 Speaker 6: road in Houston in a huge game with you know, 426 00:22:56,840 --> 00:22:59,520 Speaker 6: there's only a half game, a game separating them. I 427 00:22:59,520 --> 00:23:02,679 Speaker 6: know they play again on Wednesday, which will be another 428 00:23:03,080 --> 00:23:06,760 Speaker 6: big time game, But the Lakers are starting to There's 429 00:23:06,840 --> 00:23:11,480 Speaker 6: always expectations with the Lakers, just like with Boston. There's 430 00:23:11,480 --> 00:23:15,520 Speaker 6: always going to be expectations to win. And we dissect 431 00:23:15,680 --> 00:23:19,800 Speaker 6: every single thing they do. Because one has eighteen championships, 432 00:23:19,800 --> 00:23:22,240 Speaker 6: the other one at seventeen. That just comes with the 433 00:23:22,359 --> 00:23:27,760 Speaker 6: territory off playing with one of these blue blood NBA franchises. 434 00:23:27,520 --> 00:23:29,400 Speaker 4: The SGA. Foul baiting. 435 00:23:30,600 --> 00:23:34,440 Speaker 2: You know, some players have brought this up as a 436 00:23:34,720 --> 00:23:37,480 Speaker 2: player who did this and you know openly admits that 437 00:23:37,560 --> 00:23:41,560 Speaker 2: he did it. What does the NBA do about the 438 00:23:41,600 --> 00:23:43,240 Speaker 2: way SGA plays. 439 00:23:43,320 --> 00:23:44,920 Speaker 4: If anything, I don't get it. 440 00:23:46,240 --> 00:23:49,080 Speaker 6: I don't understand what foul beating is. We didn't say 441 00:23:49,080 --> 00:23:52,080 Speaker 6: this about MJ, and MJ went to the line ten 442 00:23:52,119 --> 00:23:55,760 Speaker 6: plus times. James Harden was in that same category, went 443 00:23:55,800 --> 00:23:58,560 Speaker 6: to the line ten plus times. Yann Is is he. 444 00:23:59,320 --> 00:24:03,520 Speaker 6: I don't understand this. You play the game and you 445 00:24:03,640 --> 00:24:08,600 Speaker 6: try to take advantage of whatever rules or how they're 446 00:24:08,640 --> 00:24:11,679 Speaker 6: calling the game. Games changed from night to night. I 447 00:24:11,720 --> 00:24:16,600 Speaker 6: know there's a general consensus of how you're supposed to play, 448 00:24:17,080 --> 00:24:20,480 Speaker 6: but you have different officials each and every game. He 449 00:24:20,720 --> 00:24:23,240 Speaker 6: is not would you call it rage. 450 00:24:22,960 --> 00:24:25,720 Speaker 4: Baiting and great foubating falbating? 451 00:24:25,960 --> 00:24:33,560 Speaker 6: Every single night he's attacking the defense. Are some calls questionable, absolutely, 452 00:24:33,840 --> 00:24:36,000 Speaker 6: But I just don't get it. Why he gets called 453 00:24:36,000 --> 00:24:40,520 Speaker 6: out all the time. Last night, Jalen Brown's been, you know, 454 00:24:40,680 --> 00:24:42,800 Speaker 6: calling this out all the time. He shot twenty one 455 00:24:42,840 --> 00:24:44,080 Speaker 6: falls last night. 456 00:24:44,560 --> 00:24:47,320 Speaker 4: Well maybe he's learning from SGA how to bate. 457 00:24:48,400 --> 00:24:54,480 Speaker 6: Then thank you learn and adapt, Learn and adapt, that's 458 00:24:54,520 --> 00:24:55,600 Speaker 6: what you've got to do. 459 00:24:55,880 --> 00:24:56,280 Speaker 4: Okay. 460 00:24:56,760 --> 00:25:00,159 Speaker 2: I brought this up and I got some criticism that 461 00:25:00,359 --> 00:25:04,359 Speaker 2: I thought that maybe SGA is kind of a younger 462 00:25:04,440 --> 00:25:12,359 Speaker 2: Damar DeRozan. Now Demarta Rosen has almost twenty seven thousand points. Yeah, 463 00:25:12,880 --> 00:25:21,200 Speaker 2: not exciting. Yeah, methodical, consistent gonna get you twenty at least, 464 00:25:21,560 --> 00:25:25,600 Speaker 2: which is what SGA gives you and future Hall of Famer. Yes, yes, 465 00:25:25,800 --> 00:25:28,720 Speaker 2: Now we don't talk about anything else with SGA except 466 00:25:28,760 --> 00:25:31,879 Speaker 2: for his scoring. Nobody brings up passing, nobody brings up defense, 467 00:25:31,920 --> 00:25:34,320 Speaker 2: nobody brings up any of that. It's just he is 468 00:25:34,320 --> 00:25:37,560 Speaker 2: a bucket. He is going to score on anybody. And 469 00:25:37,640 --> 00:25:40,520 Speaker 2: I thought Demarta Rosen has been doing this. Now he 470 00:25:40,560 --> 00:25:43,679 Speaker 2: hasn't done it for great teams. Maybe not that you know, 471 00:25:43,720 --> 00:25:46,280 Speaker 2: anywhere near the level of SGA is an MVP. But 472 00:25:47,000 --> 00:25:52,119 Speaker 2: is that a fair offensive comparison between Demarta Rosen and SGA. 473 00:25:52,640 --> 00:25:55,159 Speaker 6: It's fair, But I will say this, He's just not 474 00:25:55,280 --> 00:25:59,080 Speaker 6: a bucket SGA. He's been top five in steals, so 475 00:25:59,200 --> 00:26:01,800 Speaker 6: he does play the he is a two way player. 476 00:26:02,400 --> 00:26:02,480 Speaker 5: And. 477 00:26:04,200 --> 00:26:07,800 Speaker 6: He leads his team and assists, so he does distribute 478 00:26:07,840 --> 00:26:12,200 Speaker 6: the rock. But why is he getting all this hate? 479 00:26:12,560 --> 00:26:12,800 Speaker 5: To me? 480 00:26:14,080 --> 00:26:16,320 Speaker 2: Well, that's not a hate, that's not hate. I'm just 481 00:26:16,400 --> 00:26:19,760 Speaker 2: saying we always look at a comp. I don't know 482 00:26:19,800 --> 00:26:22,439 Speaker 2: who the comp is for SGA. We do that for 483 00:26:22,480 --> 00:26:25,119 Speaker 2: all of these players. Now, certain players there isn't a 484 00:26:25,160 --> 00:26:28,600 Speaker 2: comp like Joker, there is no comp Giannis, there is 485 00:26:28,640 --> 00:26:29,159 Speaker 2: no comp. 486 00:26:29,480 --> 00:26:33,520 Speaker 6: Well, if Damar de Rosen is the comp to SGA, 487 00:26:33,600 --> 00:26:36,439 Speaker 6: and I'll just ask you this, if you flip flop 488 00:26:36,480 --> 00:26:40,320 Speaker 6: them and you put Damar on that OKAC team, do 489 00:26:40,400 --> 00:26:43,880 Speaker 6: they win a chip? Are they fifty four wins right now? 490 00:26:45,200 --> 00:26:48,320 Speaker 6: If you just flip them right now? Are even making 491 00:26:48,400 --> 00:26:50,320 Speaker 6: a younger Damar because Damar is a little bit older. 492 00:26:51,840 --> 00:26:54,200 Speaker 6: Are they still winning the chip with Jamar and his 493 00:26:54,480 --> 00:26:57,280 Speaker 6: SJAA and his Sacramento better. 494 00:26:58,000 --> 00:27:00,320 Speaker 2: Well, they would be better, but they're not winning any thing. 495 00:27:00,840 --> 00:27:03,240 Speaker 2: But if Jamorrow was in OKAC, I think that OKAC 496 00:27:03,440 --> 00:27:07,439 Speaker 2: team is that good that he wouldn't be You know. 497 00:27:07,480 --> 00:27:10,680 Speaker 2: Another thing is SGA is a great closer. I mean 498 00:27:10,720 --> 00:27:13,439 Speaker 2: we haven't seen DeMar Derouzen in games where you go. 499 00:27:13,320 --> 00:27:15,520 Speaker 6: Oh dear is a great closer too. 500 00:27:15,960 --> 00:27:16,680 Speaker 4: Well, he just had it. 501 00:27:16,920 --> 00:27:19,320 Speaker 2: He hadn't played in big games where we noticed it. 502 00:27:19,359 --> 00:27:21,520 Speaker 2: With SGA we did see it. So maybe it is 503 00:27:21,560 --> 00:27:24,440 Speaker 2: a it's men as a compliment, but it's just because 504 00:27:24,480 --> 00:27:28,480 Speaker 2: they're mid range. They can get to the hoop. Nothing fancy, 505 00:27:29,000 --> 00:27:30,760 Speaker 2: just it's kind of like they just. 506 00:27:31,000 --> 00:27:35,199 Speaker 6: They just go about their business and both our bucket gears. 507 00:27:35,240 --> 00:27:38,320 Speaker 6: Don't get me wrong, people need to understand remember Jamarga 508 00:27:38,440 --> 00:27:42,080 Speaker 6: Rosen when he was in Toronto. When he was in Toronto, 509 00:27:42,960 --> 00:27:45,880 Speaker 6: he was a straight bucket gear and again the whole 510 00:27:45,920 --> 00:27:48,760 Speaker 6: trade for Kawhi and they would he he just hasn't 511 00:27:48,800 --> 00:27:51,760 Speaker 6: been on the national stage long enough for people to 512 00:27:51,880 --> 00:27:57,320 Speaker 6: understand that. But remember twenty seven thousand points in the NBA. Yeah, no, 513 00:27:58,119 --> 00:28:00,560 Speaker 6: people need to remember that, all right. 514 00:28:00,600 --> 00:28:04,160 Speaker 4: Who surpasses at a Bio? Yeah, Bam. Out of Bio's 515 00:28:04,200 --> 00:28:06,560 Speaker 4: eighty three points, who can? 516 00:28:06,840 --> 00:28:07,040 Speaker 5: Yes? 517 00:28:08,240 --> 00:28:10,560 Speaker 2: How many players do you think could get eighty four 518 00:28:10,600 --> 00:28:11,359 Speaker 2: points or more? 519 00:28:11,920 --> 00:28:18,240 Speaker 6: I think Luca could. I believe ant Man could. I 520 00:28:18,480 --> 00:28:24,600 Speaker 6: believe a Jason Tatum could. But things will have to 521 00:28:24,680 --> 00:28:28,480 Speaker 6: fall into place. And again I know you and I 522 00:28:28,560 --> 00:28:31,560 Speaker 6: were probably gonna go there on this conversation with Bam, 523 00:28:31,640 --> 00:28:38,320 Speaker 6: I talked about this Sunday night about Spolstra and Bam. 524 00:28:38,760 --> 00:28:42,000 Speaker 6: The criticism kind of taken for how they got to 525 00:28:42,080 --> 00:28:45,680 Speaker 6: the eighty three. You're a shooter, you were a scorer, 526 00:28:45,800 --> 00:28:49,440 Speaker 6: Theodore and I want Paul as I'm talking to look 527 00:28:49,440 --> 00:28:52,400 Speaker 6: this up. If you got thirty one at the end 528 00:28:52,400 --> 00:28:58,000 Speaker 6: of one, if you got forty three at halftime, I 529 00:28:58,160 --> 00:29:01,720 Speaker 6: believe he had seventy early in the fourth? Am I 530 00:29:01,800 --> 00:29:03,000 Speaker 6: correct on that, Wally? 531 00:29:03,160 --> 00:29:05,280 Speaker 4: And sixty four after three. 532 00:29:05,520 --> 00:29:10,800 Speaker 6: Yet sixty four after three seventy with l nine or 533 00:29:10,840 --> 00:29:13,960 Speaker 6: ten minutes left in the fourth, are you kidding me? 534 00:29:15,160 --> 00:29:18,600 Speaker 6: You have to at least attempt to go for it 535 00:29:19,960 --> 00:29:21,640 Speaker 6: by any means necessary. 536 00:29:21,960 --> 00:29:25,440 Speaker 2: Well, at that point you can't accidentally get sixty four. 537 00:29:25,800 --> 00:29:29,240 Speaker 2: You can't do it in a gimmicky way. Right, he 538 00:29:29,280 --> 00:29:30,920 Speaker 2: didn't do that, and that he didn't. 539 00:29:31,120 --> 00:29:34,480 Speaker 6: There was no gimmicks to the sixty four. So now 540 00:29:34,480 --> 00:29:38,720 Speaker 6: from sixty four to eighty three, that's where he gets 541 00:29:38,760 --> 00:29:41,560 Speaker 6: a little murky or muddy. But I do not care. 542 00:29:41,600 --> 00:29:43,240 Speaker 6: I know in the fourth he was only like one 543 00:29:43,240 --> 00:29:45,160 Speaker 6: of six from the field, and most of those points 544 00:29:45,200 --> 00:29:46,360 Speaker 6: came from the free throw line. 545 00:29:47,080 --> 00:29:50,640 Speaker 2: Correct, Yeah, I have no problem with you know, the 546 00:29:50,680 --> 00:29:52,640 Speaker 2: Wizards are the ones who should be embarrassed. 547 00:29:52,680 --> 00:29:54,560 Speaker 4: Thank you, not Bam out. 548 00:29:54,360 --> 00:29:57,160 Speaker 6: Of bio, Thank you, thank you. 549 00:29:57,360 --> 00:29:59,560 Speaker 4: Okay, Now I did asking this. 550 00:29:59,680 --> 00:30:02,120 Speaker 2: I said, did you think about stopping at eighty one 551 00:30:02,240 --> 00:30:07,640 Speaker 2: because your idol Kobe had eighty one? He said no, No, 552 00:30:08,000 --> 00:30:10,320 Speaker 2: because Kobe would want me to k for now I 553 00:30:10,520 --> 00:30:13,600 Speaker 2: was reversed Kobe's blowing by eighty one. 554 00:30:14,640 --> 00:30:18,240 Speaker 6: And people think, you know, when I said that that 555 00:30:19,400 --> 00:30:21,600 Speaker 6: I was hating our cod I would never hate on 556 00:30:21,800 --> 00:30:26,200 Speaker 6: Kobe and his accomplishment. It uplifts that performance to me. 557 00:30:26,920 --> 00:30:31,800 Speaker 6: It uplifts what Kobe did him getting eighty three. I mean, 558 00:30:31,840 --> 00:30:34,720 Speaker 6: that's unbelievable for them to be one two. We're not 559 00:30:34,760 --> 00:30:38,360 Speaker 6: gonna look at Kobe's eighty one and forget about it. 560 00:30:38,360 --> 00:30:42,200 Speaker 6: It was two totally different games. Kobe needed every one 561 00:30:42,240 --> 00:30:46,720 Speaker 6: of those eighty one. Yeah, in that performance versus Toronto 562 00:30:47,800 --> 00:30:52,440 Speaker 6: Vams was a little different. But in five ten fifty 563 00:30:52,560 --> 00:30:54,240 Speaker 6: are we even gonna be talking about that. We're just 564 00:30:54,280 --> 00:30:56,200 Speaker 6: gonna look at the stat sheet and say, oh my god, 565 00:30:56,280 --> 00:31:01,600 Speaker 6: damn that a Bio had eighty three kudos eighty three? 566 00:31:02,000 --> 00:31:05,040 Speaker 2: I know, come on, But as he said, he goes, look, 567 00:31:05,080 --> 00:31:06,920 Speaker 2: I didn't fit the agenda because I said, why does 568 00:31:06,960 --> 00:31:09,240 Speaker 2: it feel like you have to apologize for getting eighty three? 569 00:31:09,240 --> 00:31:12,720 Speaker 2: And he said, because you don't expect me to get 570 00:31:12,800 --> 00:31:16,080 Speaker 2: those numbers, and therefore people have a problem with it, 571 00:31:16,120 --> 00:31:18,440 Speaker 2: like he had to do it in a gimmicky way. 572 00:31:18,560 --> 00:31:21,480 Speaker 6: Right, And that's why you should almost reverse that. We 573 00:31:21,480 --> 00:31:24,280 Speaker 6: should be celebrating him, like, oh my god, a guy 574 00:31:24,280 --> 00:31:27,240 Speaker 6: that never ever gets the shine. It's been a great 575 00:31:27,240 --> 00:31:31,480 Speaker 6: defensive player, a great team guy, rebounded defender, has one 576 00:31:31,520 --> 00:31:37,640 Speaker 6: of gold at the Olympics for our nation. We should 577 00:31:37,760 --> 00:31:40,960 Speaker 6: be celebrating Bam, like this is great. I don't care 578 00:31:41,040 --> 00:31:44,000 Speaker 6: how you got it, Bam, congratulations because you'll probably never 579 00:31:44,080 --> 00:31:48,640 Speaker 6: ever have. His career high was what forty one time? Once? Yeah, 580 00:31:49,000 --> 00:31:51,640 Speaker 6: so why can't we celebrate I don't care how he 581 00:31:51,720 --> 00:31:52,080 Speaker 6: got it. 582 00:31:52,240 --> 00:31:55,280 Speaker 4: He got it, Okay, but celebrate that too. 583 00:31:55,560 --> 00:31:57,840 Speaker 2: I always thought if you were going to beat Kobe's 584 00:31:58,160 --> 00:32:00,160 Speaker 2: you had to be able to shoot the three. It 585 00:32:00,200 --> 00:32:02,400 Speaker 2: had to be ball dominant, you had to be able 586 00:32:02,400 --> 00:32:04,880 Speaker 2: to create your shot, and the game had to be close, 587 00:32:05,280 --> 00:32:09,760 Speaker 2: had to be competitive. And so I see Luca as 588 00:32:09,800 --> 00:32:11,840 Speaker 2: a guy who could go for that. 589 00:32:13,920 --> 00:32:14,520 Speaker 5: I can't. 590 00:32:14,920 --> 00:32:17,040 Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, he's got the talent to do it. 591 00:32:17,280 --> 00:32:20,840 Speaker 6: Ant like Tatum shoots enough threes. 592 00:32:20,840 --> 00:32:23,320 Speaker 2: Like, but you have to want to do that. You 593 00:32:23,320 --> 00:32:25,520 Speaker 2: have to have a coach who lets you do that. 594 00:32:25,560 --> 00:32:27,600 Speaker 2: You don't go out on the floor and go I'm 595 00:32:27,600 --> 00:32:31,120 Speaker 2: putting up seventy tonight. You just get into a rhythm 596 00:32:31,200 --> 00:32:34,280 Speaker 2: where you go, all right, I got a good game going. 597 00:32:35,000 --> 00:32:37,800 Speaker 6: Look and also too, and I saw this. You know, 598 00:32:37,920 --> 00:32:41,920 Speaker 6: Kobe at one time had a sixty point through three 599 00:32:42,280 --> 00:32:45,080 Speaker 6: and was up big, and he set out, sat out 600 00:32:45,160 --> 00:32:48,320 Speaker 6: ye play. Thompson had the same thing. He has sixty 601 00:32:48,640 --> 00:32:52,160 Speaker 6: through three and was sat out. I think a young 602 00:32:52,240 --> 00:32:54,840 Speaker 6: Stephan Curry, a twenty eight year old Stephan Curry, not 603 00:32:54,920 --> 00:32:59,000 Speaker 6: thirty eight. I think a twenty eight year old Stephan 604 00:32:59,080 --> 00:33:02,200 Speaker 6: Curry in today's game, the way everyone's shooting, you know, 605 00:33:02,320 --> 00:33:06,840 Speaker 6: how he the way he approached the game, could get 606 00:33:07,880 --> 00:33:08,480 Speaker 6: eighty four. 607 00:33:10,680 --> 00:33:11,600 Speaker 4: It's just crazy. 608 00:33:11,880 --> 00:33:13,920 Speaker 6: It is crazy. It's crazy. 609 00:33:14,280 --> 00:33:17,280 Speaker 2: But you look at the point totals. Reg teams get 610 00:33:17,320 --> 00:33:18,560 Speaker 2: one thirty and lose. 611 00:33:19,200 --> 00:33:22,040 Speaker 6: Do you remember in the nineties and early two thousands, 612 00:33:22,480 --> 00:33:25,520 Speaker 6: coach is saying, we can't give up thirty point quarters. 613 00:33:25,680 --> 00:33:29,800 Speaker 6: Thirty point quarters, that's you got four minutes left in the. 614 00:33:29,760 --> 00:33:33,800 Speaker 4: First that's what standard practice. Now standard now, well, for 615 00:33:33,880 --> 00:33:36,200 Speaker 4: a while was first team to one hundred, our first 616 00:33:36,200 --> 00:33:37,080 Speaker 4: team to ninety. 617 00:33:37,600 --> 00:33:40,040 Speaker 6: Lawler's law, right, let's do one hundred. 618 00:33:40,160 --> 00:33:41,360 Speaker 4: That was that was banned. 619 00:33:41,920 --> 00:33:43,720 Speaker 6: Now it's nothing. 620 00:33:43,840 --> 00:33:47,520 Speaker 2: It's a nightly Basis Calves and the Bucks eight Eastern 621 00:33:47,520 --> 00:33:50,280 Speaker 2: on NBC and Peacock.

Adam Schefter reporting Wattle traded from the 640 00:34:55,280 --> 00:35:00,520 Speaker 2: Dolphins to the Broncos. And uh, this is what's when 641 00:35:00,520 --> 00:35:03,040 Speaker 2: I said, I hope Malik Willis doesn't go to the 642 00:35:03,080 --> 00:35:08,719 Speaker 2: Dolphins if they're going to basically rebuild, Like why, why 643 00:35:08,760 --> 00:35:11,160 Speaker 2: are you spending the money on Malik Willis when I 644 00:35:11,200 --> 00:35:13,600 Speaker 2: would have had Quinn Ewers be the starting quarterback. He 645 00:35:13,640 --> 00:35:17,200 Speaker 2: doesn't cost me anything, and I wait until maybe next 646 00:35:17,280 --> 00:35:20,440 Speaker 2: year to get a quarterback. Why am I now? Malik 647 00:35:20,440 --> 00:35:23,120 Speaker 2: Willis isn't costing you a lot. He's you know, less 648 00:35:23,120 --> 00:35:26,279 Speaker 2: than twenty five million dollars. But you're bringing in a 649 00:35:26,320 --> 00:35:28,239 Speaker 2: guy who is ready to win. 650 00:35:28,760 --> 00:35:30,600 Speaker 4: He I mean, he wants to prove himself. 651 00:35:32,719 --> 00:35:36,200 Speaker 2: I don't understand the philosophy there new coach new GM 652 00:35:36,960 --> 00:35:40,320 Speaker 2: and my philosophy would have been I would have traded 653 00:35:40,400 --> 00:35:43,759 Speaker 2: Jalen Waddle last year if I could have, Like, you 654 00:35:43,800 --> 00:35:45,200 Speaker 2: can't sort of half asset. 655 00:35:45,239 --> 00:35:47,080 Speaker 4: You got to like, what are we doing here? 656 00:35:47,840 --> 00:35:50,960 Speaker 2: And if you're going to start trading away your marquee guys, 657 00:35:51,080 --> 00:35:53,799 Speaker 2: you're gonna cut you know, Tyreek Hill and get it 658 00:35:53,880 --> 00:35:58,480 Speaker 2: rid of Tua And okay, you're not winning with Jalen Waddle. 659 00:35:59,080 --> 00:35:59,560 Speaker 4: Trade him. 660 00:35:59,600 --> 00:36:02,040 Speaker 2: I think it's smart. It's just like Max Crosby with 661 00:36:02,080 --> 00:36:05,120 Speaker 2: the Raiders. It's nice to have him. You're not winning anything. 662 00:36:05,280 --> 00:36:08,080 Speaker 2: He can help you get draft picks and maybe they 663 00:36:08,120 --> 00:36:11,279 Speaker 2: still trade him. Maybe somebody is willing to give you 664 00:36:11,280 --> 00:36:13,759 Speaker 2: a similar deal than what the Ravens backed out on. 665 00:36:13,840 --> 00:36:17,800 Speaker 2: But the Jalen Waddle deal to Denver, that's a great pickup. 666 00:36:18,080 --> 00:36:20,840 Speaker 4: Yes, Marvin, hopefully he doesn't fail his physical. 667 00:36:20,880 --> 00:36:26,879 Speaker 2: Ooh yeah, all right, too soon, so sorry, all right, 668 00:36:27,560 --> 00:36:30,680 Speaker 2: let me see Meg in New York.

Maybe the Nuggets versus the Spurs to 709 00:38:39,480 --> 00:38:42,520 Speaker 12: ABA teams or the Pacers against the Spurs a B 710 00:38:42,640 --> 00:38:44,320 Speaker 12: A a BA ball old school. 711 00:38:45,120 --> 00:38:47,560 Speaker 2: I'm gonna give you a blue bloop bloop bloop on that. 712 00:38:48,080 --> 00:38:50,399 Speaker 2: That's really I think that'd be awesome to have an 713 00:38:50,400 --> 00:38:51,080 Speaker 2: ABA night. 714 00:38:51,120 --> 00:38:54,880 Speaker 4: It's a quad bloop yeah, boop bloop bloop.

This time 724 00:39:21,640 --> 00:39:25,040 Speaker 13: of year always brings a twofold question for me. First, 725 00:39:25,040 --> 00:39:28,520 Speaker 13: why does the max swax Nacs of the world bother 726 00:39:28,640 --> 00:39:32,359 Speaker 13: with the conference championship tournament? I can't believe they're making 727 00:39:32,440 --> 00:39:35,319 Speaker 13: much money at it and they end up sending their 728 00:39:35,320 --> 00:39:37,839 Speaker 13: fourth or fifth best team instead of their first they's been. 729 00:39:37,880 --> 00:39:39,880 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, you run the risk of that now. I 730 00:39:39,880 --> 00:39:43,880 Speaker 2: always talk about these conference championship whether it's football, where 731 00:39:44,320 --> 00:39:46,360 Speaker 2: you know you might not be sending your best team 732 00:39:46,960 --> 00:39:51,160 Speaker 2: because they don't win the conference championship. Certainly in basketball, 733 00:39:51,320 --> 00:39:54,640 Speaker 2: but it you know, it has to make money or 734 00:39:54,640 --> 00:39:58,040 Speaker 2: they wouldn't be doing it. Broncos are getting Jalen Waddle. 735 00:39:58,760 --> 00:40:02,080 Speaker 2: Denver gets Wattle the Dolphins fourth round pick in this 736 00:40:02,200 --> 00:40:05,840 Speaker 2: year's draft.
